Last week, I wondered if I should keep blogging. Since then I have received new followers to this blog. I took that as a sign to keep going. Obviously, people are reading. When I am not here writing my thoughts, I also write for an organization called The Radiance Foundation. It is led by my friends Ryan and Bethany Bomberger. They are passionate about speaking up for the lives of the unborn and their vision is to affirm that every human life has purpose.
The following is a link to my recent article at The Radiance Foundation. If you like what you read here, you will love following their site. Check them out after reading my latest article.
Thanks for reading and it's official– I will keep blogging!

I started this blog nearly six years ago. It was my sister that encouraged me to start blogging. I never considered myself a writer, but I always had this desire to write. If I showed you some of my old journals with my New Year's resolutions, you would see my future writing ambitions. My sister—who sometimes knows me better than I know myself—knew that I needed to guide my passionate voice to a better venue than our phone conversations.
I don't have a huge following. That was never my goal. I just wanted to share my heart and whoever wanted to listen was welcome to drop by and read. And while I blogged, I was given opportunities to write on other blog sites with much larger audiences. I was able to write for conservative political sites which led to attending large political events. I had a taste of what it was like to be a citizen journalist, and it was fun. But I realized the political media arena is not for me. This might be surprising to you, but writing about politics can get tiresome, and I was getting a bit jaded by it all. I know, shocking!
There was that time that I quickly jotted down my thoughts on Miley Cyrus back in 2013, and my blog post went viral. When it hit 10,000 views, I thought to myself, "Maybe, I should write all my blog posts in fifteen minutes or less."
I then had the opportunity to write for pro-life sites, and that is where I felt most comfortable. Writing about the beauty of God's creation and protecting that creation—it never gets old. My fingers easily find the words to write when it comes to my passion for being a voice for life. I pray that I can continue to be a voice for the pro-life movement wherever that may lead.
I am grateful that this little blog has been a stepping stone, and I am grateful for all the opportunities it has provided.
But here is where I get to the whole point of this blog post. Should I continue to blog?
I am a person who knows what I am NOT better than what I AM. I am not a platform person. I love reading blogs from Christian women who share a daily devotional and who have developed specific platforms. Talented writers who have many followers, and they encourage other women in their faith at conferences and various speaking engagements. That is not me.
There are also mothers who have great parenting blog sites. They encourage young mothers and give the latest parenting tips. I might be able to whip up a couple of posts about my lessons learned as a mother but, again, that's NOT me.
This blog and the title—The Velvet Brick—is me. Someone once told me, "You look sweeter than you really are." I laughed. It wasn't a criticism. What she meant was I am tougher than I look. I am not afraid to take on the controversial issues. I'll throw my opinions into the ring knowing the possibility of the backlash I might receive. I also don't take myself too seriously. And on occasion, I can be wrong on an issue or how I approach it.
The most important thing to me about blogging is that my faith reflects what I write. But my faith needs to be genuine and, sometimes, that means I need to write with more grace and less religious convictions. Both are important, but they have to balance each other.
I know that God has given me a voice to share my faith and sometimes that intersects with topics in culture, family, and politics. If it is a platform, it is a broad one. Often, I think my voice is getting lost in a sea of other voices with more followers and well-defined blogs. And, perhaps, with sweeter dispositions than me. (She says sweetly smiling.)
I know as a writer/blogger you are supposed to post regularly and market yourself profusely. That's a struggle for me. I can get tired of myself, and if I do, I know the reader can as well. Sometimes less is more.
So I need your help. I have an existential blog crisis. Should I continue to blog? Is there room for my voice in the wide blogosphere? Should I close up shop and try other writing venues? Do you still read blogs? What have you appreciated here that might help to define where my voice belongs? I would love your opinions, suggestions, or criticisms. After all, I wouldn't be here pressing the keys on my laptop if it weren't for my sister—and YOU!

All it takes is a "like", a nod, or a thumbs-up to point to the value of life in the womb.
Sometimes the strongest messages of life are accidental. They are chance happenings. An Instagram photo of a pregnant belly at week number 30, a video of unborn twins moving in a mother's womb, a Facebook post of "We're Pregnant" after a friend's struggle with infertility or a blog of that designer's nursery with a beautifully decorated room for their youngest client.
Nods of life happen all around us. We give a thumbs-up to a post, we hit that heart emoji, and we embrace a culture of life unintentionally. It's because at the heart of our human condition we intrinsically know the value of life. We immediately react to those double lines on a pregnancy test because we know what incredible gift a baby is to the world.
It's true that we are also surrounded by intentional messages such as political slogans, hashtag movements, campaigns, or purposefully driven memes that point away from the beauty of life. But the older you get, the more you understand that the greatest lessons are not from the calculated moments but from the accidental or spontaneous instances that add to a person's life story.
We don't have to look very far to see inadvertent messages that point to life. I am encouraged that many, unintentionally, are pointing to the value of life in the womb. They are not politically driven or planned pro-life stances. But they are spontaneous moments that speak to the sanctity of life.
May we celebrate the unintentional-deliberately- to highlight life inside and outside the womb!
Here is one example:
I was twenty-three years old, naïve, and ready for my first full-time teaching position. I had just spent twelve weeks in a long-term substitute position for a fifth-grade classroom. It was the end of Spring, and I knew that I might be called in for interviews for the upcoming school year. I had been a substitute teacher for a year and I was ready for my own classroom.
I decided it might be beneficial to get advice from the principal at the school where I did my long-term substitute position. I scheduled to meet with him after school. I let him know that I was looking for a full-time job and if he could give me some advice about interviewing and what I should expect. I don't remember him giving me any helpful information. He said a few things, laughed a little and said, "Really, all you need to know is just look pretty."
Yup, that was it, folks. My four years of college and all my efforts to become a credited teacher were summed up in three words- Just.Look.Pretty.
I remember turning a bit red and embarrassed at his response. I chatted a bit more but I realized he had no advice for me and THAT was his answer.
Now the present-day-forty-something-me would have probably got in my car and drove to the School Board office to kindly let them know Mr. Principal was a misogynist pig— or something to that effect. But my twenty-three-year-old-self lacked self-confidence and boldness. I didn't know how to respond. I just wanted a teaching position.
After that, I knew that I didn't want to work in that school. Mr. Principal's comments made me uncomfortable, but I really couldn't pinpoint why. They weren't harmful, but they were disrespectful. I started to think about all the teachers in that school, and I noticed there was a common theme. Most of them were thin, pretty, and all female. In fact, I remember the interactions many of those female teachers had with Mr. Principal. They flirted and they stroked his ego. It was an environment that I often felt uncomfortable and out of place in. It was like High School all over again. I wasn't going to be making out with any football players, so I wasn't a part of the popular crowd (or some other High School cliche situation).
I tell this whole scenario to say this; we are all responsible for creating an atmosphere of respect. In a society where sexual harassment in the workplace seems to be a disease, let's acknowledge that sometimes it starts with women to set the standard. Mr. Principal was a jerk. No question about that. But I watched many other female teachers laugh at his crassness and flirt in the most inappropriate way. They helped to create a climate where he was very comfortable in being unprofessional. Now I don't know if anything was going on besides flirtation and ignorant behavior, but it was enough to make me feel devalued in my role there as a teacher. I have often wondered, would he have made those comments if the other teachers held him to a higher standard?
I learned a valuable lesson from that experience. Respect begins with me.
Looking back, I wish I would have been able to respond to Mr. Principal and put him in his place. He needed a lecture on respect for women, especially young women. But I don't put this story in the context of men verse women or equality. It's simply about treating everyone with respect. We (men and women) all have the choice to set our standards high in the workplace. We can enable a disrespectful atmosphere just as much as we can directly show disrespect. Our actions or failure to act have consequences. We can complain and point fingers, or we can set the standard for how we ALL want to be treated.
Now my story did have a happy ending. I taught in another school with an admirable male principal who helped me become a better teacher. He valued me as a young teacher, and I respected him for his leadership and experience. It's amazing what can happen when respect begets respect.
One of the most important parenting lessons I learned as a new mother.Continue Reading...
This is a blog that I don't know how to write. I don't feel qualified to write about this topic, and I realize it's a sensitive issue to many people. So I am going to do my best to just share my heart on a matter that I genuinely care about. I hope in my weak attempt to share my perspective; you read the grace between the lines and not the judgment.
For the last month or so, the title of this blog has been going through my head over and over again. It's been screaming at me.
Adultery is a big deal!
Over the last couple of years I have watched adultery creep into people's lives and make a mess of things. Children have been emotionally wounded, marriages have ended in divorce, and people have walked away from God.
Adultery is a big deal!
I have seen how one act of adultery can affect a group of people. What might have seemed like a private act of attraction between two people then catapulted into a situation that affected many people's lives.
Adultery is a big deal!
I've been told that I don't understand the situation surrounding the events. I've gotten the response, "you can't judge unless you have been in my situation." Marriage is hard, and attraction happens.
Marriage is a big deal!
There is a reason why one of the Ten Commandments says, "Do not commit adultery." God put in place the protection from this grievous sin so that lives would not be destroyed. Jesus went even further to teach about lust in one's heart. We are all sinners, but we all are faced with the choice to act on sin. Sin destroys and grieves the heart of God.
Sin is a big deal!
But on the flip side of adultery is redemption. I have seen marriages that were wrecked by the sin of adultery completely transformed by the grace of God. I have witnessed families restored and watched a husband and wife devoted to each other in a loving marriage which was once destined for divorce. God is the healer and restorer of broken relationships. There is forgiveness for adultery. There is healing.
God is a big deal!
I hate adultery. I hate divorce. I hate how it destroys families. And I hate that so often people are not willing to fight for their marriages. Sure, maybe I don't know "your situation." But I know God. When we allow God to break down the walls of sin and let forgiveness in, He is more than able to do miraculous things. God thinks your marriage is a big deal. He will fight with you to restore it. But He has to be at the center of it. Don't give in to the lie in our society that adultery or divorce is no big deal. Hold on to Scripture. Walk in the truth of God's Word. His Commandments are to protect us from sin and the hurt that brings hopelessness. He is the hope for your marriage.
I have witnessed a casualness towards divorce and adultery in the Church. It grieves my heart. But how much more does it grieve the heart of God?
I know every marriage, every situation, every struggle is different. But I just wish we could start screaming out loud with a warning —Adultery is a big deal! And then wrap our loving arms around our friends in their hurting marriages and encourage them that their Marriage is a big deal. Maybe that's too simplistic and idealistic. But I don't care because I serve a God who is bigger than all it.
Dear Hollywood,
Wow, things are exploding out there in La La Land. I have been watching and reading all the media frenzy over the breaking story on Harvey Weinstein and what a mess! My female empowerment side wants to congratulate all the women coming forward and commend them on their bravery. Weinstein is a monster clad in designer suits and dripping in Hollywood mogul riches. He's a sexual abuser, predator, and here's another word- he's evil.
As I sit here taking it all in though, I have to tell you that I am not surprised. You are an industry that has increasingly rejected the values that most everyday Americans hold dear. You're not quite the beacon of morality in this country. In fact, I rarely attend movies anymore unless a trusted friend recommends one. Why? Because you have taken the art of storytelling and have politicized it. You're not even subtle anymore about your agenda. It's blatant. I hold different opinions and values than most of Hollywood. That's fine. I like the diversity of thought and beliefs. But you, Hollywood, don't!
You have politicized your films, your award shows, and even the platforms of your actors look more like politicians than entertainers. You're an industry that has used your power and influence to manipulate your viewers. You wield a form of control of thought in your films, and we're sick of it. Hollywood seems to be this mecca of collective groupthink. Does anyone think apart from the group anymore? Well, let me tell you Hollywood, there's a whole population of people who have lost respect for you.
There's no excuse for a man like Weinstein to be able to manipulate women to get what he wants. That's disgusting behavior. But let's just call your industry on the "red carpet" about something. Your films objectify and sexualize your actors and actresses to such extremes that I can't tell the difference between pornography and an R-rated movie. I can't remember the last time I could go to a movie theater with my children that wasn't an animated film. Your industry sexualizes everything.
Harvey Weinstein is a symptom of this over-sexualization which also manipulates and controls. We all know sex sells but why do you let it?
So what do average everyday Americans want from the world of Hollywood?
We just want to be entertained. We want to escape into a story that might resonate with who we are as Americans. A film that captures our uniqueness of diversity. A history story that makes us cry over our human frailties but triumphs in our moral indignation to be better people. Maybe, movies that capture people who think differently or have opinions that we might disagree with but can find common ground without bias. The world of storytelling is beautiful. It heals and shapes us as Americans. But when Hollywood loses sight of who their viewers are, they stop telling real stories.
Hollywood, you have gotten off course. You've let your politics control your industry. Meryl Streep once called Harvey Weinstein, "god." Don't go worshipping golden idols. That only leads to destruction. You have the potential to unite a politically divided country with your beautiful Technicolor stories. That's all we want as viewers; to escape our everyday struggles and get lost in a movie.
Get out of your bubble, Hollywood, and look around. Many of us want to support you, but we want you to embrace our stories too. We don't all live in La La Land nor do we want to.
I am sorry our world has men like Weinstein, but maybe he's a wake-up call. Write your own redemptive story, Hollywood.
My children are past the age of getting up in the middle of the night and coming into our bedroom. But I remember one night when one of my children came into our bedroom crying over a terrifying dream. I still remember that dream because it frightened me too.
The dream was my child running in the hallways at school from a man with a gun. It was frightening, and I did my best to comfort and reassure in the middle of the night that it was just a dream and not reality. I prayed for my child, and despite my poor ability for being able to memorize scriptures, I managed to think of the verse in 2 Timothy 1:7, For God has not given us a spirit of fear, but of power and of love and of a sound mind. I explained that God has the power to calm all our fears even our nightmares. We can rest in that comfort.
I went back to bed but with a little check of fear in my own heart. "God, don't ever let that nightmare become a reality for my children," I prayed.
This past Monday we awoke to the news of the massacre in Las Vegas. A madman with a gun and people running for their lives, but this was not a dream. This was a reality.
That tragic event put fear in my heart as a parent. Our world's realities are nightmares come true.
My kids are the generation that has grown up with Lock and Hide drills at school of the possibility of an active shooter. Music concerts that are celebratory events are now potential target audiences for violence. The week before, my daughter attended a country music concert. Fear set in, again. "I can't let her go to another concert. It's too dangerous," I thought.
Jason Aldean was the country music singer who was on stage that night in Las Vegas. He saw the massacre unfold right in front of him. "This world is becoming the kind of place I am afraid to raise my children in," he wrote after the tragedy.
I get it. I can relate as a parent to his fears. How do we parent in a society where we have to constantly fear for our children's safety? A place where my child's frightening dream has been a reality for people around the world.
As I watched the unbelievable tragedy on the news, fear started to take hold of me. And then I was reminded of that one particular night of my own reassuring words and the scripture.
God has not given ME a spirit of fear.
I prayed, and I let that Bible verse seep into my heart and I not only found comfort but joy. Isn't that just like God to not only comfort us but exchange our fear for joy?
As a follower of Christ, I am a child of God. Just like my child, who came into our bedroom seeking comfort for their fears, I found comfort from God. I do know that fear can be a powerful emotion that can hold people captive. But we are not slaves to fear. In all the uncertainty of this world- in the violence and tragic events that seem to unfold before us every day- there is God. He's there comforting us and reminding us there is joy and peace in uncertainty. That joy and peace can only be explained because I take refuge in God's promises. I know without a shadow of a doubt that whatever happens to my children or me, we are safe in His arms.
It's the reason why I can send my children to school each day. It's the reason I can let my child go to a concert or experience all life's celebratory events without fear. It's God.
It is also important as a parent to model my faith and security in Christ in front of my children, especially when tragic events take place. I cannot let fear take hold of my heart. My reaction to tragedy in front of my children reflects my faith or lack of faith in God. And I know in whom I trust. I am a child of God. If I live that out, so will they.
I want my children to understand that whether it's a bad dream or a real-life event, that there is hope and peace in living for Christ. They are not slaves to fear. I want them to live in that freedom and find joy amidst all life's uncertainties.
I read that the Bible quotes "do not fear" 365 times. That's one for each day of the year. I'll take it and try to rest in that command each day. I will not be afraid.
God reminded me this week that I have no fear in raising my children because God does not give US a spirit of fear. In a world where we have no control over evil, God is still the giver of peace. He will speak joy into our hearts even in tragedy. We can rest in that comfort.
Do not fear, for I am with you; do not be dismayed, for I am your God. I will strengthen you and help you; I will uphold you with my righteous right hand. – Isaiah 41:10

So what exactly is a business plan? It's simply a written description of your business's future—a document that tells what you plan to do and how you plan to do it. Business plans can help perform a number of tasks for those who write and read them.

I wrote this book with that goal in mind; to reveal the simplicity of selling. Selling is simple. Simple is fun. That is why the KISS principle (Keep It Simple Salespeople) prevails. This book offers an approach that strips away the perceived complexities of selling and discusses selling in its purest form: a dialogue between two human beings.

Most people want to be successful in life. There are goals set and then the hard work begins to reach those goals. The question is what is success? Actually, success can mean different things to different people. For example, a person that owns their own oil changing service for vehicles might set their level of success at servicing 50 cars a day while someone who loves music might consider success as cutting their own CD. In addition, success does not always have to involve money. Success could be getting a good grade in a difficult class or learning how to...

Emergency Planning is a critical component of every facility's mission to provide a safe environment for its residents, staff, patrons and visitors. The key to successful emergency response lies in the details of preparedness. Generic (one-size fits all) guidelines for emergency response are insufficient. Our safety in an emergency depends on the careful, detailed planning and training that goes on well before an emergency occurs and that is specific to each facility.

Basically, you have two choices when it comes to running your organization: Be intentional about the path your organization follows or turn on autopilot. Turning on autopilot is kind of like hopping in your Hummer, turning on the satellite navigation system, and following the directions from your home to Las Vegas. Computers aren't the best at making decisions, so you may get to Las Vegas eventually, but are you going to Las Vegas, New Mexico, or Las Vegas, Nevada. If you plot your course before you set off, you're a lot more likely to get to your destination....

Hex Node I is a 3D printed plastic sculpture in an edition of 30 with 3 artist's proofs. It's 3" in diameter.
My drawings use reproductive processes found in microbiology and astronomy, urban planning and architectural theory as source materials. When Robert Henry Contemporary approached me about creating a multiple for my next exhibition, I initially considered producing a conventional print, but after some reflection I decided that going back to making sculpture would be a good opportunity to work out how some of the map-making I've been doing translates into three dimensions.
Hex Node I is available for purchase online at $100 plus $15 for shipping and handling.

Maia John!
Thanks to all who entered! Check back soon for more exciting giveaways… we've got a lot planned for the upcoming months and we're so excited to share them with you soon 🙂
Thanks to all who entered! Check back soon for more exciting giveaways… we've got a lot planned for the upcoming months and we're so excited to share them with you soon 🙂
As the Thanksgiving holiday approaches, we want to share with you just a few things we're thankful for.
1: Books…and the sexier the better.
2: Boys…and preferably hot ones with titles or war stallions.
3: Blog readers! We're so grateful to all of you for visiting, reading, commenting, and offering suggestions.
In fact, we're so grateful we're giving thanks for you with…A GIVEAWAY! And you know what that means…FREE BOOKS! That's right! One lucky reader will win 6 (6!) of Harlequin's hottest new books. All you have to do is follow the link below, where you'll fill out a form and follow all 6 of the books' authors on Twitter. For an extra entry, leave us a comment on this post telling us what you're thankful for this year.
The giveaway will close at 11:59pm on Sunday, November 27th. We'll announce the winner at 12pm on Monday, November 28th.
Thank you again for reading with us! And come back tomorrow and Friday for reviews of two of these books, Married to Her Enemy by Jenni Fletcher and The Saxon Outlaw's Revenge by Elisabeth Hobbes. Spoiler alert: they're awesome.
Give us a follow so you won't miss a post from us!
Jodi Ellen Malpas' new book The Protector releases today. To be honest, we haven't read it yet (top of the TBR list), but we are OBSESSED with the cover art of this book.
Lola remarked to Elinor that it reminded her of The Bodyguard. Elinor agreed, but thought The Protector was even sexier because the girl isn't wearing poor Whitney Houston's uncomfortable-looking leather getup. Either way, the branding for this book is totally on point: sexy imaging, movie-poster style cover design, reminiscent of a classic. Way to work it, Jodi Ellen Malpas. And now we're going to have "I Will Always Love You" stuck in our head all day 😉
Since we love romantic stories, we couldn't help make a bit of a romance out of the creation of this blog!
We (Elinor and Lola) don't agree on everything. For instance, Elinor drinks cocktails; Lola prefers wine. Elinor wears mostly black; Lola likes color. Elinor sometimes likes sad endings; Lola frowns at those.
One thing we do agree on, though, is romantic fiction. We love it. If you're reading this blog, you probably love it, too. Sadly, this affair with the genre we all share is one that's often looked down upon by the literary establishment. We thought it fitting, then, that one of our very first blog posts should be an act of defiance against those high-brow haters. Thus, we offer you what we've decided to call our Romanifesto: a manifesto on the unadulterated awesomeness that is romantic fiction. So, grab a glass of wine (or a cocktail!) and let us tell you why we love romance.
To celebrate the launch of Anonymisses we're offering our readers (hi, friends!) the chance to win a $10 Amazon gift card. To enter,
1: Follow us on Twitter.
2: Leave a comment on this post telling us something you'd really like us to include on the blog in the future. Review suggestions welcome!
Thanks for visiting us and good luck!
-Elinor and Lola
Hello romance world! Welcome to our brand-new blog. We are so thrilled to be joining the romance conversation and community! Although we have a few posts for your perusal, today is our first official day, so we wanted to take the time to briefly introduce ourselves.
We are two lifelong lovers of romantic fiction. In our real lives, we are both aspiring professors. Because of the stuck-up world of academia, we are forced to write this blog under the pen names Elinor Wolfe and Lola Quirk. Although we are incredibly proud to be romance readers, blogger, and (hopefully) writers, the reality of hiring committees and tenure track jobs means that we will be part of the romance community anonymously.
However, while our names are masked, our opinions definitely are not. Our goal is to read great books, write thoughtful and fun reviews, help you find your next favorite author, and talk to you awesome romance readers and writers! We're hoping for a dialogue here; perhaps you love an underappreciated author, or you're looking for a particular feature on a romance blog– if so, we want to hear from you! Let us know what you like and don't like, what you wish to see more of, or if you'd like to join the conversation (leave a comment on our posts or stop by our Contact page)!
Please take a look around and explore the content we have ready for you. You can find out more about us on our Behind the Masks page and find out about ways to get involved on our Policies page. We'll be adding content regularly, so keep coming back for new stuff. Thanks for being one of our first readers!
The Anonymisses
1. The guys are always hot.
No matter your type, there's a romance novel hero for you. Whether you like them smart, stoic, or full of swagger, someone has written hero to fulfil your fantasies.
2. The women are dynamic.
Some are sweet and some are spicy. Some are refined and some are reckless. Whether you envision yourself as a damsel-in-distress or a take-no-prisoners kind of gal, you'll find a heroine with whom you can identify.
3. The sex is good.
We're fans of everything, from romance by candlelight to tearing up the sheets. A good romance affects your mind… and body.
4. Female inhibitions are out the door.
Not only is the sex good, but romance novels are a place where female sexuality can be explored and celebrated! What's not to love about that?

An innovative non-invasive alternative to surgery and botox. To achieve smoother, firmer, younger-looking skin, you no longer have to endure painful cutting or chemical injections.
Smooth the appearance of wrinkles ...
From the age of 25, the fibroblasts begin to produce less of the substances that are essential to the youth of the skin.
the treatment
The endermologie® technique stimulates the skin to wake up the fibroblast, the key youth cell. This stimulation, as effective as it is pleasant, addresses the natural age-defying processes:
- Production of new high-quality collagen.
- Elimination of degraded collagen fragments.
- Acceleration of elastin synthesis (+46%)* for skin that is more resistant to multiple muscular micro-contractions, which are often the source of expression lines.
- Synthesis of natural hyaluronic acid (+80%)* to re-volumize the dermis and smooth the appearance of wrinkles.
The RESULT
The skin is visibly toned and re-plumped from within. The signs of skin ageing fade away while the face's natural expression is preserved.

Remodeling can increase the value of your New Orleans home. After all, a well-maintained property with modern amenities typically sells faster than one that is poorly maintained and has outdated amenities. When trying to increase value, remain with the traditional remodeling investments most homeowners choose.
For instance, bathroom and kitchen remodels generally increase the value of any property. The rooms also drive up the asking price of your home when it's time to place the property on the market. The amount of the increase varies though. Small remodeling projects such as installing new kitchen cabinets or counter-tops can recoup the money spent on the job, however, it may not increase the property's overall value very much. Major remodeling projects such adding modern, popular features tend to increase value the most.
In addition to kitchen and bathroom remodeling projects, adding extra spaces in the home increases its value too. For instance, the first thing you notice in a newer home is roominess. Existing, older homes generally lack the same roominess. Thus, adding an eat-in kitchen, an extra bathroom in a guest room or extra room in a master suite adds value.
When remodeling, don't gamble. Trying to predict what prospective buyers like is akin to being a hamster on a wheel. It's an endless but disappointing quest. Stray too far from what general buyers like and you risk not selling your home. Instead, you must keep a delicate balance. Choose to remodel based on what you and your family like. However, you should also stay with features, colors and styles that appeal to a larger group.
Regardless of the type of remodeling you do, the quality of work is vital. Remember, you're trying to increase the value, not decrease it. Thus, substandard, low-quality workmanship or material wipes out any extra value you may have added to your home, so try to avoid do-it-yourself weekend projects. Major or minor remodeling projects should be left to the professionals.
You may want to add a half-bath to your first floor or combine two rooms to make a larger room, however, maintain your remodeling project. Keeping any home in good shape is critical to maintaining its increased value.

Dwayne & Maryanne did a tremendous job marketing and selling our home in Prince William County. We interviewed many real estate agents realizing that selling our Manassas area home in the Lake Jackson community had some challenges. It was an older lake front home with property that required considerable maintenance but they remained confident that they could find buyers to present a reasonable offer.
There were rumors of our home having a history related to Cold War spying activity. Before we made our selection which agent we would hire to sell our home, Dwayne did a considerable amount of research and found enough information to write an article involving the beauty, mystery, and intrigue about our home. Dwayne & Maryanne had told us they thought the key to finding qualified buyers serious about purchasing our home was to use this information to have the Washington Post feature it as the… Continue reading
"Maryanne and Dwayne Moyers are exceptional real estate agents. Their knowledge and experience in the real estate business, along with their work ethic is exceptional. They work closely with your individual concerns/situation, and recommend the best course of action. I highly recommend their service to anyone, and will most definitely use them again in the future. They treat you as friends and not just customers."
"Maryanne and Dwayne helped me as a first time home buyer, through the impossible task of finding an affordable, unique, tree-covered house in northern Virginia. They were always in contact, never let me feel alone, and listened to what i wanted. They had great contacts in the region, making it easy to find help when i needed it. One year later, I love my house and consider Maryanne and Dwayne great friends."

Esmod Jakarta
President Mayadewi Hartarto
- 1969
- Indonesia
I grew up in a warm-hearted family. My parents always tried to spare their time for their children. They were really busy because they were working with government agencies. But they gave importance to spending time with us. They often talked about politics within the family.
I studied in Jakarta from elementary school to junior high school. Then I studied in Boston from high school to university. I did so because all my brothers and sisters had studied abroad. I returned to Indonesia just after graduating from university and helped a nonprofit organization run by my mother. Two years later, I mapped out a plan to inaugurate Esmod.
It took two years for me to launch my school business. I did market research, met various people and collected information mainly about schools with flexible programs or those ready to accept foreign cultures as well as requirements for opening schools. I also traveled to Paris and New York. I visited various schools and studied their merits and demerits. In France, I received lessons as a trainee.
I started my school business in 1996. It was the first fashion school in Indonesia. It is very difficult to operate a school in Indonesia. We have to concentrate on education from the beginning to the end. Unlike other kinds of businesses, we cannot obtain quick returns. But this is not a bad business from a long-term perspective. This is a long-term investment. Initially, Indonesian people could not imagine just what a fashion school is. I visited various schools and met parents to explain my plans for the fashion schools in detail.
My dream is to expand our schools throughout the country. At present, we operate schools only in Jakarta. I am afraid that it is difficult for people in remote areas to study at our schools. Another problem is that tuition fees are expensive for locals. We want to open schools with reduced fees that will be more accommodating.

Happy Soap SCARY
This is our most frightening soap, perfect for Halloween, and for a bit older child that enjoys a good scare. The transparency of the soap makes the skeleton hand and staring eye seem to be just within reach. But the only way to get this horror duo out it is to wash your hands as often as mum and dad tells you to...
Our Happy Soaps are all hand made in Sweden. The toys inside are seleced to be extra awesome. We prefer using recycled ones in mint condition, for the sake of the environment, which makes each soap unique. The skeleton hand is always white, but the eye color is either blue, green, grey or brown, which is selected randomly.
The vegetable based glycerine soap is softly moisturising and gentle to sensitive skin. It is free from the surfactants Sodium Lauryl Sulfate and Sodium Laureth Sulfate (SLS and SLES), commonly used in soaps and both known to irritate the skin and be a cause of environmental damage. Since our product is meant for children, we have not added any scent (perfume or essential oil), one of the main causes of allergy. In short, it is a really good soap for kids (in every sense!). For every Happy Soap bar sold, we donate 1 € to Save the Children, the world wide organisation that invests in children, every day, in times of crisis and for our future.
Ingredients: Water, Glycerine, Sorbitol, Sodium Stearate, Sodium Laurate, Propylene Glycol, Sodium Oleate, Sodium Myristate, Sodium Chloride, Glyceryl Mono Laurate, Cocamidopropyl Betaine, Cocos Nucifiera, Sodium Thiosulfat, Sodium Citrat, Citric Acid, Tetrasodium Glutamate Diacetate and Trisodium Sulfosuccinate.
Warning: The soap contains small parts and is not suitable for children under 3 years.

I'm an avid gamer who likes to tinker with computers. Aside from technology, I love hiking, fishing, caving, and just hanging out outdoors with friends. I've always been told i was an exceptional writer, and aim to live up to the expectations given to me by many. I aim to begin work on a project very soon.

on April 29, 2013 :
I for one thoroughly enjoyed this book, it may have been because I actually took the time to read it. I fully understood what the author did with 'that girl Caitlin' and enjoyed the plot twist. I also enjoyed the ending twist, Jeremy is still living! Can't wait for the next installment Mr. Bene, keep up the great work!

First of all where are all the indents.This book made me want to vomit it's awful. You don't have any good writing skills. I only have awful things to say about this book so i'm not going to give it that good of a review. It sucked period and i'm not looking forward to any work from you Mr. Bene. What was with the stupid fantasy bit at the end and that girl caitlin, you made it seemed like you hated her in fact you beat her head in. Then all of a sudden she is a hero, you contradicted yourself in the book many times and i can't tell if this was because of personal stuff or if you are just really bad at writing but i'm going for personal stuff. If that is the case i feel sorry for this caitlin girl because she has to read this garbage and read that you wanted to KILL her in real life as you were writing it.
I'm done with this review i would write anything ever again Mr. Bene it was awful and i'm sure people agree with me!

Here at Homemarket-Europe, we present a variety of new home technology trends every year. One of the biggest trends that we've featured in our past few exhibitions is LED bulbs. We love LED spotlights for both the interior and exterior of your home, because they look great and are better for the environment as well. With an increased global focus on climate change, many people are looking for products that can help them reduce their negative impact on our planet. LED spotlights and LED downlights are a perfect addition to any eco-conscious home. Here's why we love them so much.
LED Spotlights are extremely energy efficient.
When compared to normal lighting, LED lights use far less energy to provide the same amount of light or even more. This is because LED lights (link to post #2) produce very little heat, so they don't waste energy in this way. This means that you will save money on your electricity bill as a consumer, and power plants will experience less demand overall. This reduces the negative impact that power production has on our environment.
LED spotlights last for a very long time.
LED lights have an extremely long lifespan when compared to traditional lighting. In fact, an LED lightbulb can last as much as six times as long as a filament bulb, which means that you won't need to repurchase them as often. This is not only very convenient, but it actually saves you money in the long run. It also reduces the amount of waste produced by lightbulbs.
LED spotlights and downlights have great light distribution.
In addition to LED bulbs lasting much longer than their traditional counterparts, you'll also need much fewer of them. The structure of an LED bulb means that it will provide a bright spotlight in one direction, which makes it easier to see and doesn't waste as much energy. In particular, LED lights are great for outdoor use, where the spotlight style is very effective.
LED lights do not produce toxic waste.
A big concern for many eco-conscious consumers is the type of waste that is created when products are thrown away. Unlike other types of lighting, LED lights are non-toxic, so they do not hurt the planet when discarded. Although you won't have to throw out LED lightbulbs very often because of their extremely long lifespan, when you do, you won't have to feel guilty about it.

Breakfast of Champions!!! Okay, not really. I was rushed this morning and "didn't have time" to grab a quick breakfast. I did, however, add some cream to my coffee…like that would actually help.
I originally had a break in my clinic schedule today, so thought I could run home and have some lunch. But, I got deep into a project I've been working on and didn't want to leave. I made a decision, based on hunger, to order some Jimmy Johns. I tried to make it as healthy as I could by adding extra veggies. I will admit, it was good and hit the spot. But, lets be honest…I could have done much better. Nitrated meat, white processed bread, the list goes on. Put this on my list of nutritional FAILS!
I did have a couple mugs of hot tea and hot water. I CRAVE hot drinks. It can be as simple as sipping on hot water with no tea or coffee. It is extremely soothing to me, and a way for me to get more water in my daily routine.
Call this another FAIL, but I was suppose to make a crockpot of Turkey and Wild Rice Soup. I did not! Again, a rushed morning and I completely spaced it. I did end up making the soup, mostly because I did not have a backup plan and after eating out for lunch (poorly chosen) I couldn't make the same decision twice in one day.
I made a quick version of what I originally extended. We had a Wild Turkey Breast that I defrosted specifically to make this soup. I made a small batch quick broth with the Turkey Breast, carrots, celery, onion, bay leaf (from my house plant), thyme (from our garden) and some salt/garlic. I boiled it all for about 45 minutes, and then removed the breast so it could cool and I could shred it. While it boiled, I cooked some Wild Rice in my rice cooker. I added some parsley and kale, and some jarred chicken broth I had in the fridge. I shredded the Wild Turkey and added it back to the soup along with the cooked Wild Rice. I continued cooking for an additional 15-20 minutes.
I had some leftover sourdough bread that was a little stale, which was PERFECT for the soup. Tonight was a beer night. I love a good dark beer, and Isolation Ale was a perfect cold weather beer to go with my soup.
Not going to lie, I nibbled a bit today; probably because I did not have my normal meals.

A couple important updates to take note of as we go into the March Break.
1) Parents Reaching Out (PRO) Grants Applications: May 19th deadline
Applications for the Ontario Government's PRO grants are open now until May 19th. PRO grants are aimed at projects that help break down the barriers with that prevent parent engagement in our schools. School Councils can apply for funding for projects of up to $1000 and can apply as an individual school or as a community of schools. More information can be found here.
2) ECO-School Certification: Wednesday April 15th
The deadline to apply to be certified as a eco-school is just over a month away. Please try to start your application early as all fields must be answered. Audits are planned to occur in May and June to be certified. For more information on applying, as well as TDSB's Earth Hour and Bike to School Week, please read the Eco-School's March Newsletter.
3) Healthy Schools Survey Results
Toronto Public Health conducted a survey of 6000 Toronto students from grade's 7 to 12. While there is much good to be said about the health of our city's children, there are some concerns in areas such as bullying and second-hand smoke. A infographic of the key findings can be seen here: Healthy Futures Infographic
For more details about the survey results, please visit the Toronto Public Health website.
4) School Capital Planning Consultation
The TDSB is working on ensuring that there is meaningful consultation on what is going to be done with our schools. Can there be creative ways to bring the city, schools, and the Ontario government together to address our capital pressures? Therefore, a website for parents and other stakeholders was created to provide the information you need to join in the conversation.

The 197-ton snow Fleece was built at Arbroath in 1850 and owned by Kidd & Son, also of Arbroath. She began her career trading out of her home port to the Baltic under Captain Kidd but soon changed her route to one from Dundee to Galatz, then under Turkish rule but now in Romania, under Captain Anderson until she disappears from record in the late 1850s.
Dated 1850, the year Fleece entered service, this portrait was undoubtedly executed to mark her maiden voyage to the Baltic.

Bergen County, New Jersey (PRWEB) September 14, 2016
Morgan & Morgan's ClassAction.com has announced that the firm has filed a product liability lawsuit (case number: BER-L-6537-16; Superior Court of New Jersey, Bergen County) against Samsung on behalf of Daniel Ramirez, a 23-year-old man from California. The complaint alleges that on the morning of May 30, 2016, "at the Campus Book and Supply Store in Akron, Ohio for a construction project in the scope of his employment for National Property Solutions Group ('NPSG')," Mr. Ramirez's Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge cell phone exploded and caught fire in Mr. Ramirez's pants – burning directly through his boxers and pants… and engulfing Mr. Ramirez's leg in flames.
The explosion allegedly "cause extensive damage to Mr. Ramirez, including but not limited to second degree burns to his right thumb and index finger as well as second and third degree burns to his right upper leg." Mr. Ramirez was transported to Akron Children's Hospital, where he was, according to court documents, "treated for extensive burns; which included a significant skin graft injury to his right leg."
Mr. Ramirez's cell phone, according to the complaint, "was completely charred and destroyed as a result of the explosion." (The complaint includes photos of the charred S7 Edge.)
"Although Mr. Ramirez was able to remove the cell phone, he was unable to quickly remove his pants and boxers because the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge cell phone ignited his pants and melted them to his leg leaving Mr. Ramirez in shock and extreme pain," the complaint states.
The complaint, filed by Morgan & Morgan, claims that as a result of Samsung's negligence, "Mr. Ramirez sustained severe, permanent and life-altering injuries including but not limited to his groin, legs, and lower back and is currently undergoing extensive physical therapy."
Mr. Ramirez seeks damages for medical bills, pain and suffering, and physical and financial harm. (The full amount of those damages has yet to be determined.)
The complaint states that Mr. Ramirez "heard a whistling and screeching sound and noticed his pockets vibrating and moving around, as well as thick smoke ascending from his pocket."
The complaint also alleges that Samsung "delayed rollout of all of its [Galaxy Note] phone related devices in response to various reports on social media showing charred and burnt phones as a result of 'explosions' from the battery."
"Only two weeks later," the complaint continues, "Thursday, September 1, 2016, SAMSUNG representatives released an official statement explaining that they were ceasing all sales of the Samsung Galaxy Smartphone and issuing a global recall as a result of reports of 35 faulty phone batteries."

Once a bill is introduced into parliament it must pass through several stages and checks before it becomes legislation. This process is a long and sometimes complex one, and can vary depending on the type of bill being raised. It also varies slightly among the various Federal and State parliaments of Australia. The process begins with the drafting of a bill and ends with the granting of royal assent, public proclamation and enactment. For those who have lobbied or pushed for law reform, the granting of royal assent can be an important moment. The image above shows volunteer fire-fighters, who had lobbied for statutory recognition of volunteer rights, with a document of royal assent to a bill codifying many of their rights.
Described here is the process by which a bill becomes law in the Federal Parliament:
Introduction. Apart from appropriation bills, which must always begin in the House of Representatives, a bill can be introduced into either House of Parliament. Any MP can introduce bills (see private member's bills) but they are usually raised by ministers. MPs are forewarned of bills being raised on the parliament's Notice Paper (agenda).
First Reading. The minister or MP raising the bill begins by reading its short title aloud, then he or she hands the bill and an explanatory memorandum to the clerk. The clerk then reads its long title, formally introducing the bill into the parliament. The clerk will make copies of the bill available to other MPs, as well as placing it online for examination by the general public.
Second reading (speech). The minister or MP raising the bill delivers a speech, usually immediately after the first reading, in which he or she explains the necessity for the bill, what it contains and what it will achieve. This usually takes place immediately after the first reading. This provides an important context for the bill and the reasons for its formulation. These speeches are recorded in Hansard and may be consulted by judges who later must interpret the legislation.
Second reading (debate). After this introductory speech, discussion on the bill is deferred to a later date. This allows other MPs, the media and the general public to examine the bill and form their own conclusions and opinions. The deferment may be a few days or (more commonly) two or more weeks, depending on the complexity of the bill and the government's urgency to see it passed. When debate commences, MPs from the government, the opposition, minor parties and independents may speak in turn on the bill. In theory there is no time limit for debate, however, major parties will generally negotiate a number of speakers, to avoid the process taking too long. A vote is held at the conclusion of debate and if a majority supports the bill, the process continues.
Consideration in detail (House of Representatives) and Committee of the whole (Senate). During these stages, the details of the bill are closely examined and discussed. Every section and clause of the bill is read and MPs are permitted to speak briefly about them. Amendments may be moved, such as the replacement, removal or addition of keywords. These stages are optional and may be bypassed if MPs do not object (this is usually the case for bills that are short or simple in scope, bills that repeal or amend other acts or bills that are supported by both major parties).
Third reading. If the bill passes through the second reading and committee stages, it is again moved by the original minister or MP. MPs are asked to vote for or against the motion; debate during this stage is rare. If a majority supports the bill then the clerk again reads its long title, signifying that the bill has passed the house.
The other House. Bills must pass both Houses to become law. Since most bills originate in the House of Representatives, once they have passed that house they are then transported to the Senate, where the above process is completed. The Senate may block the bill or suggest amendments, particularly if the government of the day does not enjoy a majority there. In practice a lot of negotiation about amendments occurs 'behind the scenes' between the government, the opposition, minor parties and independent MPs, to avoid the blocking or failure of bills.
Royal assent. The final stage in the legislative process is the granting of royal assent by the Governor-General, who declares it to be law "…in the name of Her Majesty".
Proclamation and enactment. All new legislation is formally announced in the Government Gazette, along with the date on which it comes into effect; this is known as proclamation. The legislation becomes law on the specified date when it is considered to have been enacted.

1) I run an indie label affiliated with a major. I've a new act that isn't connecting. Can you help?
We offer A&R and marketing advice to labels both big and small. More often than not looking in from the outside is all that's needed to make sure your project wins on the inside.
2) I work at at fashion house. We need something music wise for our next campaign ASAP!
We have connections here and have worked on many campaigns. Teaming up with you directly is often the quickest and most creative way to deliver the end campaign on time.
3) I'm a solo artist. I've been investing in myself but I'm unsure what to do and where to spend next?
Many a new act runs into this problem. A lot of money (sometimes personal money) is spent unnecessarily. We can help drastically reduce costs by simply being honest about what's really needed for your project to progress now and into the future.
4) I'm in a band. We've been getting interest from record labels for a while but how do we turn this into a deal?
If you have interest then that's a good sign but it's the beginning rather than end of an often lengthy process. Some hard advice on what the best path is can save a lot of head and heartache. Fortunately we have advised many top ten acts over the years.
5) I co-own a new management company. We have good investment and a roster we believe in but we're struggling to break an act. Why?
It's hard to know what is what when it's underneath your nose. An outside ear can help bring much needed clarity and some home truths. If you're open and ready then we can help!
Stage 1 Consultation:
- Overview on what is working with Artists music and what is not working/A+R Separating the songs that work from the ones that don't
- looking at the mistakes and turning those mistakes into positives- Getting rid of what is not working in your project- Honest brutal assessment (This is your money that we are trying to protect and make correct decisions with)
- Finding new producers / Initial A+R
- Looking at the marketing of the project so far what works what does not work. Giving advice on promo teams, finding good promo people that suit your project, setting realistic deadlines for your project
- Advice on music from start to finish
time: 1.5 hours
Action taken from Consultation: one/two months
Price available on request
Ferocious Talent Management also has a consultancy arm. Not all acts need management some just need advice from time to time from someone that's done it before.
For Ferocious Consultancy please contact:

Use this video to look at how the lovers begin "talking in sonnets" when they meet and how their language of martyrdom predicts their tragic love affair. This lesson is best used during or after a reading of Act I, Scene 5 of Romeo and Juliet. Using video, text, graphic organizers, and text-dependent discussion questions, students will learn how the shared sonnet provides both an introduction to Romeo and Juliet's love story and a road map for the tragedy to come.
