I started with a normal wooden plaque, covered it with mod podge filled with flakes, stenciled some great colors in the background, stamped silver flowers around the edges with Stazon silver ink, then stenciled and build up some guesso dragon flies and butterflies and the flair in burgandy. glued some pretty little ribbon flowers, and dainty girly ribbon from my stash and hand wrote Girls Only with Copic ink! If that's not multi media, I don't know what it! lol

Last week, we touched on the best souvenirs to buy in the Philippines. You can usually find them in stores of all shapes and sizes around the country, whether you're in a bustling city or a quiet probinsiya.
However, some stores offer better and more consistent quality goods than others. If you want to bring home souvenirs that'll wow your friends and family at home, and get good value for your money at the same time, these are the shops you don't want to miss.
Kultura Filipino
Address: Selected SM mall/department stores
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KulturaPH/
This is probably "the" go-to place for Filipino souvenirs. Located in SM stores around the Metro, Kultura Filipino offers a wide array of handicrafts, clothes, travel must-haves (tumblers, travel pillows, thermal jugs) and other paraphernalia.
The stores have a classy, sophisticated ambience, and the employees are helpful and knowledgeable about their wares. Plus, there's a money changer booth near the entrance, so it's easier for tourists to convert their native currencies into Philippine pesos. The only downside is that some goods — such as the food — can be pricier compared to their counterparts in other stores.
Team Manila
Address: Selected malls around the Metro, online
Website: http://teammanilalifestyle.com/
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/teammanila/
Once you see the logo of Jose Rizal in hipster shades, you know you're in the right place. Team Manila isn't as "traditionally" Filipino as Kultura Filipino, since you won't find things like barong Tagalog here.
However, it does carry shirts printed with funny, creative images related to Filipino culture, plus lomo cameras and other Filipino-themed accessories. Some of the malls that host their outlets include Power Plant Mall in Makati, SM Mall of Asia in Pasay, TriNoma in Quezon City and Market! Market! in Taguig.
Mangyan Village Products
Address: Greenbelt 5, Glorietta 1 and The Ayala Museum
In Mindoro, there's an indigenous group of people known as the Mangyan. Being the sole inhabitants of the island until the Spanish came, the Mangyan developed their own unique culture that's unlike any other within the Philippines.
Take their nito baskets, for example. Crafted from nito grass by their women, these baskets take around three months to make, and are woven with intricate patterns that are distinctly Mangyan. Luckily for those in the Metro, they can purchase these baskets and support the Mangyan community by heading to the Ayala Malls in Makati City.
Tesoro's Philippine Handicraft
Address: 1325 A. Mabini St., (Ermita, Manila), 1016 A. Arnaiz Ave., (Makati City), The Landmark (Makati City), NAIA Terminal 1 and 3, DMIA-Clark, Boracay Airport
Website: http://tesoros.ph/
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/tesoroshandicrafts
Like Kultura Filipino, Tesoro's stores carry traditional Filipino wares with a modern twist, including embroidered shawls, shell crafts and other Philippine handicrafts. It only has 12 outlets in the country to date, but it makes up for the lack of quantity with quality offerings at reasonable prices. Also, the store's employees can be relied on to tell you everything you need to know about each product, so you'll get the best value for your money.
Balikbayan Handicrafts Corporation
Address: 1010 A. Arnaiz Ave., (Makati City), 4/F The Landmark (Makati City), HK Sunplaza, Macapagal Blvd. (Pasay City)
Website: http://balikbayanhandicrafts.com.ph/
Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/balikbayanhandicrafts/
In the Philippines, the term "balikbayan" refers to someone who's come home to their native land after a long time spent abroad. True enough, Balikbayan Handicrafts offers goods that anyone — Filipino or otherwise — can bring back to their country to remind them of the beauty of the Philippines.
For example, there are the beds made of kamagong, the sculptures made of acacia and the jewelries made of pearls and corals. In case you're too busy to visit the store personally, or you're based outside the Philippines, you can also order online from them.
Triple J's Souvenir Shop
Address: Stall 1-A Plaza San Luis Complex, General Luna St., Intramuros, Manila
If you're visiting the historical walled city of Intramuros, don't forget to drop by this hole-in-the-wall joint. Like the other shops on this list, Triple J offers T-Shirts, handicrafts, sculptures, postcards and other stuff at reasonable prices. It's located about a couple of blocks away from the Cathedral of Manila, and about three blocks away from three universities (Mapua, Lyceum and Letran), so if you're anywhere near those places, you're on the right track.
Closing Thoughts
Aside from the ones listed here, there are other places where you can buy souvenirs from the Philippines. For example, there's the descriptively-but-not-creatively named "Duty Free," which carries a load of imported goods for Filipinos and non-Filipinos alike. You have to be careful about the stuff you buy there, however, since some goods seem to cost more than they're worth.
At any rate, awesome souvenirs are easy to find if you know where to look. If you know of other hole-in-the-wall souvenir shops where people can get great goods at reasonable prices, hit us up in the comments section below.

I have learned so much over the past two years about vaccines and immunity. It is so aggravating when you hear false information being spread by the drive-by media. They water down complex issues to a 15 second sound bite. If you have young children, or you are thinking about having children in the near future, you NEED to educate yourself on this subject. I am not saying I have all the answers, but I am a logical, intelligent person. By exposing myself to a variety of information, I have come to my own conclusions about this subject. I am not going to ram my opinions down your throat. I AM going to link to alternative information that may make you start thinking in a different way.
This journey all started when I opened up my own office, and I started talking to a lot of parents about their children with developmental delays. I kept hearing over and over again that they believed that vaccines had a role. Because of this, I felt compelled to find out all I could about the subject. I thank God that there is the internet where information can be gotten so easily. You do need to take opinion with a grain of salt, but after you hear the same information from multiple, unrelated sources you start to make your own conclusions.
I strongly recommend you check out this video which gives you another perspective on the vaccine information touted in the media. I will leave the conclusions up to you because I believe in the intelligence and common sense of the average person.

Meeting kindred spirits
I have been off from facebook for a long time, but recently got back on, I don't enjoy facebook at all, and am not exactly excited to be on it again, but my business really needed it. At least I hope it does! I am a doula, I think I've mentioned that once or twice. We are usually known for our ability to work with other doulas. It is an area that doulas pride themselves on, the ability to network and not feel competitive with other doulas. In that, I realized I really need to get to know other doulas, and it was unfortunate but I wasn't getting anywhere emailing them. So I turned to face book. I couldn't send anyone a message using my business page, but I could if I had a personal page again, so I signed back in, after about 2 and a half years of not having that thing dictate my life. I realize now that the problem isn't with having a profile, it is with people who read it, and the amount that I allow them to see into my life. I don't have to be validated by others if I don't post every thing I do in a day for everyone to see. I don't have to feel like a failure when I see the successes that other people have when I'm not posting either. One thing I wasn't prepared for was the flood of emails Facebook would send me after signing back in. I actually went through my friend list and just knocked a bunch of it out, you know the people who have not tried to contact me in the last 2.5 years.... they were gone. Granted I'm a push over and friended them again as soon as they asked me to... but I figured they missed me and wanted to know how I was... so I'd let them. The thing I have really loved about getting back on though is that I really have connected with a few women in the doula community! I only knew of one before, so I really only had one contact that I could refer people to if needed, but now I have about 10 women that I intend on getting to know on a deeper level and really know if I could pass business along to them. The BEST thing ever is that I've invited a few to a tea party at my home this month, and while I kinda thought they sounded excited to come to a tea party I was shocked to see that they wanted not only to come, but to PARTICIPATE... I mean with the dresses and hats and everything! I love the friends I have already, I couldn't ever even consider replacing those relationships, but I'm excited to get out and get to know more women who are like-minded! I'm a little girl at heart, and I'm so happy to have found a few women who are similar!

Sarah Jessica Parker of Sex and the City fame reportedly claimed that just after filming its pilot, she wanted out of the contract. She even offered to work free in exchange for being released from the agreement.
Despite the fact that the series made the 50-year-old a household name, thanks to her character Carrie Bradshaw, Parker supposedly didn't want to be "tied down" or committed to just one project.
The actress recently starred in a play alongside Matthew Broderick (her husband) and Seth Rudetsky in Massachusetts. It was Rudetsky who revealed that the actress was "reluctant" to even film the pilot in the first place, as she didn't really want to get involved with a television series. But she apparently fell in love with the script, proceeded to film the pilot, and even forgot about it.
"Months later," he added, "she found out the show was picked up and she completely wanted to get out of it. I mean, completely."
He claimed that Sarah Jessica Parker calls herself a "journeyman" who loved jumping from one gig to another, instead of being tied down. Trying various ways to get out of the contract with HBO, she even offered to work for three projects free of cost in exchange for them releasing her from her Sex and the City contract.
However, the success that the show received and its subsequent spin-off films made the actress realize the value in her staying, and she now reportedly has no regrets about being a part of the projects.
Spilling more major Sex and the City news, Rudetsky also said that he heard from Parker that there might be a third installment of the hit franchise in works. He stated that she dropped hints of a new project involving "all the ladies."
Rudetsky also confessed to auditioning for the first film, but didn't end up getting cast.

New Issuer Ratings
Quarterly China Shadow Banking Monitor
Jul] The overall leverage in China's economy continues to rise, as credit
growth -- measured by total social financing -- outpaces nominal GDP. The
growth in overall leverage may be understated, because some of the fastest
growing components of shadow banking are not included in TSF. We estimate the
potential understatement to be significant, amounting to at least RMB16
trillion or 23% of GDP at end-2015, equivalent to around one-third of shadow
Green Bonds - Global: Record Quarterly
Issuance Achieved in Q2 2016; Market Poised to Reach $75 billion
Jul] Global green bond issuance in Q2 2016 reached a new quarterly high of
$20.3 billion -- well above the $16.9 billion recorded in Q1 -- and resulting
in a total for the first six months of the year of $37.2 billion, up 89% from
$19.7 billion for the first half of 2015.
Inside China - July
Jul] China has the tools to prevent a financial crisis from materializing in
the near future, but that an erosion of credit quality is likely. Specifically,
China's domestically funded and state-backed financial system, combined with a
wide range of policy tools (including moral suasion) act as powerful mitigants
to the risk of a financial crisis.
Indian auto ABS: Greater Commercial Vehicle
Sales and ABS Issuance in FY2017 Reflect Positive Credit Conditions
Jul] The issuance of Indian asset-backed securities (ABS) backed by loans on
sales of commercial vehicles and commercial equipment -- the main ABS asset
classes in India -- will continue to grow in the fiscal year ending 31 March
2017 (FY2017), extending the strong growth rates recorded in FY2016.
Australia -- Legal Framework for Covered
Jul] The Australian legal framework for covered bonds contains relatively few
prescriptive requirements, but rather relies on issuers to create programme
structures using a contractual framework.
Asia TMT Quarterly – July 2016
Jul] This edition, which covers the period from 1 April to 30 June 2016,
incorporates a market trends snapshot of current rating trends and credit
topics along with a selection of Moody's rating and research activities in the
past quarter.
Soilbuild REIT: Credit Impact of Tenant
under Judicial Management and Planned Acquisition: A Scenario Analysis
Jul] We examined three scenarios and their potential impact on Soilbuild
Business Space REIT's credit profile. In each scenario, we estimated the impact
on (1) Soilbuild REIT's earnings and asset valuation that could result from the
lost income from defaulted tenant Technics Offshore Engineering Pte. Ltd
(unrated) at its 72 Loyang Way property; and (2) its capital structure which is
dependent on the funding mix of its planned acquisition of Bukit Batok
Connection for SGD100 million.
RMBS - India: Underwriting Standards for
Affordable Housing Loans Can Differentiate RMBS Performance
Jul] The underwriting practices of lenders are vital to controlling credit risk
in India's "affordable housing loans" segment which is set to grow
strongly over the next few years as the government tries to increase home
ownership among underprivileged groups.
High-Yield Corporates in South and
Southeast Asia: Most Rated Companies Maintain Safeguards Against Exposure to US
Dollar Debt
Jul] A total 33 of our 37 rated non-financial, high-yield companies with USD
debt show protections against a significant rise in leverage or contraction in
EBITDA, should their local currencies depreciate up to 20% against the USD. At
the same time, although the local currencies, which consist primarily of the
Indonesian rupiah and the Indian rupee, have shown relative stability in 2016,
we continue to monitor the risk of profitability declining, or debt levels and
borrowing costs rising, if they weaken against the dollar.
The Evolution of Emerging Markets External
Debt: Private Sector Debt Drives Broad-Based Build-Up of Emerging Markets
External Vulnerability Risks
Jul] The growth in debt was the highest in the Asia Pacific region, with the
largest increase in external borrowing in China, India, Indonesia, Taiwan and
Malaysia. While China's external debt to GDP ratio is still the second-lowest
globally at 13% of GDP in 2015, the average external debt to GDP ratio for Asia
as a whole has recently increased from 31% in 2008 to 47% in 2015 -- well below
the 78% of Emerging Europe, but comparable to the 48% in Latin America and the
43% in the Middles East and Africa region.
high-yield bonds, "High-Yield Bond Covenants — Asia: Covenant Quality
Strengthens in Q2
[20 Jul] The average covenant quality score for Asian high-yield bonds
issued during the April-June 2016 quarter (Q2 2016) was at a moderate 2.63. The
score improved from the weak 3.48 registered during Q1 2016 and the 2.90 seen
in Q4 2015.
Analysis: Asian Development Bank
Jul] The Asian Development Bank's average borrower credit quality has remained
stable since 2011, despite economic stress in Asia caused by the sharp and
prolonged fall in commodity prices and the ongoing slowdown in China.
-- Brexit and Asia Pacific: Limited Direct Credit Impact; Some Sovereigns
Exposed to Market Volatility
Jul] The United Kingdom's vote to leave the European Union will not have a
significant credit impact on Asia Pacific sovereigns, but dependence on
external finance poses a vulnerability for some countries.
life insurance sector--Adoption of IFRS 4 Phase II Will Benefit Credit
Profiles, Despite Adjustment Challenges
Jul] The potential adoption by Taiwanese life insurers of International
Financial Reporting Standards 4 Phase II will improve their ability to measure
their policy liabilities, while various associated challenges will prove
Liquidity Stress Index: July
Jul] Our Asian Liquidity Stress Index fell to 32.5% in June 2016 from
33.6%in May 2016. The reading in June remains below the record high of 37.0%
reached in December 2008 amid the global financial crisis, but is higher than
the trailing 12-month average, highlighting the weakness in corporate liquidity
across Asia.
non-financial corporates: Cash Holdings Remain High with a 4% Rise, Despite 59%
Increase in Share Buybacks
Jul] The total amount of cash held by its rated non-financial companies in
Japan was JPY31.6 trillion ($281 billion) at the end of their respective 2015
fiscal years (which may differ), up 4% from the JPY30.3 trillion ($269 billion)
held by its rated portfolio at the end of fiscal 2014.
Issuers -- Korea: Public-Sector Reforms Raise Medium- to Long-Term Credit
Jul] The Korean government's planned public-sector reforms will raise the risk
of credit quality erosion for many rated infrastructure and corporate
government-related issuers and their subsidiaries over the medium and long

Semiconductors are the building blocks of everything in the modern world except food and clothing. Since integrated circuits are at the beginning of the supply chain they lead end-product sales by approximately 2 to 3 months. I always look at revenue rather than earnings when using the semiconductor industry as a tell for overall economic activity.
From Altera's (NASDAQ:ALTR) mid quarter update:
The company currently expects that fourth quarter revenue will be 13 to 16 percent lower than third quarter levels. Previous guidance was for a decline of 7 to 11 percent. The revenue outlook has deteriorated across all major vertical markets, including both large and small customers. With the exception of North America , which will benefit from rising military sales, all geographic regions will be weak. As the quarter has progressed, economic uncertainty, macroeconomic concerns, and, in some instances, lower than planned sales have resulted in customers reducing demand on Altera. Consistent with the third quarter, Altera believes it will continue to under ship customer end demand in the fourth quarter.
Texas Instruments (NYSE:TXN) also cut revenue guidance:
Texas Instruments Incorporated today narrowed and lowered its expected ranges for revenue. Revenue will be $3.19B - 3.33B (4% to 8% lower than 3rd quarter levels) from prior guidance of $3.35B to $3.54B. The reductions are due to broadly lower demand across a wide range of markets, customers and products, except for Wireless applications processors.
That leaves only Advanced Micro Devices (NASDAQ:AMD), Cirrus Logic (NASDAQ:CRUS), Qualcomn (NASDAQ:QCOM), Intel (NASDAQ:INTC), Nvidia (NASDAQ:NVDA), and SanDisk (SNDK) with a midpoint of sequential 4th-quarter revenue guidance that is not negative. One can make a case for Cirrus Logic, Qualcomn, and SanDisk for hitting their revenue guidance although I would suspect it would be at the lower end of the range. As for Intel and AMD, I am not sure as their primary business is processors for PCs and servers. Nvidia also participates in the mobile space with their Tegra processor but over 80% of it's revenue is from graphic processors that go into consumer, gamer, and professional market. Note: the 20 other semiconductor firms I track are providing negative sequential guidance.
In conclusion, I look at the above 4Q revenue guidance for the semiconductor companies in aggregate and try not to single out any specific company for a short position. Perhaps an inverse short ETF such as (NYSE:SSG) or shorting the semiconductor ETF (NYSEARCA:SMH) is appropriate for some.
I feel a more appropriate way to play the world wide economic slowdown is by shorting the S&P 500 ETF (NYSEARCA:SPY) or inverse short ETFs such as (NYSEARCA:SH) or (NYSEARCA:SDS). I do admit to the headline risk this Friday and weekend about potential wonderful fixes of the European Debt problem. Most importantly, my call is based on the slowing economy world wide rather than any potential "Lehman Like" moment.
Disclosure: At the time of writing I have a 20% short position in the short S&P 500 ETF (SDS) along with 80% cash position.

Michael Flannery, 92, a longtime supporter in the United States of the Irish Republican Army, died Friday of internal bleeding after a fall at his home in Jackson Heights, N.Y. He left Ireland in 1927 to find work in the United States, and stayed four decades in the actuarial department of the Metropolitan Life Insurance Co. But the great theme of his life was supporting the fight of the Irish against the British -- to the point of raising money, organizing groups and even being charged -- and acquitted -- of gunrunning.
Sister Mary Margaret Johanning, 57, a former general superior of the international congregation of School Sisters of Notre Dame, died Saturday of cancer in Jefferson City, Mo. She was on leave as chancellor of the Diocese of Jefferson City. She had held the position since 1989 and was the only woman to ever head the diocese. During her 10 years as head of the international congregation of the School Sisters of Notre Dame, the order expanded into Nepal, the Dominican Republic, Mexico and the Pacific island of Ebeye.
Madeline Block Straus Willner, 92, the daughter of an Inland Steel founder who helped light the company's first steel blast furnace when she was 5, died Friday in Chicago. Her father, Philip Dee Block, was Inland Steel's president from 1919 to 1941. The furnace she lighted became known as Madeline No. 1, and all subsequent Inland furnaces were named after her.

National break up month is coming around the corner, but I can teach you how to deal with a break up, and get your ex back. Breakups are tough, but you can survive. If you have a feeling your ex is getting ready to leave, you really need to read this.
What to do After You Get Dumped to Survive a Breakup
The first thing to remember after your ex dumps you is that this is not forever…no matter what they say, OK? Do not let your emotions get the best of you. Right after they say what they have to say, just leave. Your best defense, is no defense, or offense…just leave and recuperate. If you demand answers like "why?", or beg and plead you only dig your hole deeper, and reaffirm your exes decision.
You are not in the condition to handle any Q&A session right now, so head out the door and go home and rest. Tomorrow you will have a clear head, and you won't feel foolish about begging and pleading for your ex to come back. Plus you will still have a feeling of control…make sense? The best way to learn how to deal with a break up and win your ex back is to remain in control of your emotions. I know easier said than done, right?
The Next Step to Surviving a Break Up
If you didn't make any of the mistakes mentioned above (which is highly unlikely) you're off to a good start. But, if you did make any of those mistakes you can still recover. Either way, you need a good plan to follow, and personal support to keep you on track. All the E-books out there are great but they do not fill in the missing pieces you need to actually succeed.
What are those missing pieces? Daily support as you work through your raw emotions, and regain a sense of yourself again. The best plan in the world will not help you without all the necessary ingredients, right? The best way to learn how to deal with a break up and get your ex back is to find a place that incorporates a plan along with a support system, that you can access right from your home.
Who Am I and Why Should You Listen to Me?
My name is S. Williams, and I have been helping people since 2008 to overcome break up pain, and get their lives back. I even have an "About" section that I recommend you read. I know the name of my site is: How to Get Your Ex Back Fast, but I teach people how to get their lives back, not their ex's.
If you're interested in working with me (and our forum members) to get your life back, join my free newsletter for access to the free plan to get your ex back fast, and start getting your life back today. The answers you need to start your personal evolution are waiting for you, don't hesitate another minute…come and get them.
Once you get your life back, everything else will just start to fall into place…I promise. If you have any comments or questions please write them in the comment box below.
If this article was useful or helpful to you in anyway, please show your appreciation by giving me a "+1″ using the button below this article.
Until next time,
S. Williams

See for more its grace by the gray-yellow mix that feeling you with that silvery image. The red background is also make it go wild, though I little disappointed with less color or image that can make more appealing looks at for letters.


text: The Rules and Regulations of a Community Association are designed to insure that all members of the Association are treated fairly and can fully enjoy the common property and association amenities. When members are found to be violating the rules it is important for the association to engage enforcement efforts in order to maintain the peace and harmony of the community and to insure that the mandates of the governing documents are carried out. When an owner purchases a property in a deed restricted community there are certain expectations and obligations which the board of trustees has an obligation to monitor and enforce and working closely with the association attorney is an important aspect in carrying out that obligation. One important aspect of the Board's duty is to enforce architectural controls which are written into the governing documents and/or the Rules and Regulations. Aesthetic continuity in a planned community is important to maintaining property values and also to insure that the member's expectations when they purchased in the community are met. Our job is to help the Board to interpret the various governing documents and Rules and Regulations and to provide advice on how to enforce those documents by use of warnings, fines and, where necessary, court action.

Set The Trend This Prom 2016 Season with this radiant Primavera Couture gown that redifines the word Sultry!
* Required Fields
Primavera Couture 1586 Dress by Primavera Couture is a seductive floor-length style that is perfect on-trend with it's Mesh in the Middle design! Available in Midnight blue and Platinum silver, while also giving off a hint of vintage glam, we love the idea of wearing this sexy dress to a Golden Age of Hollywood themed event.
Features: Show off your stylish side with the Primavera Couture 1586 dress that boasts a fully beaded design for a look that sparkles with all its might! A high scoop neckline gives way to modified cap-sleeves that clasp at the center of your shoulder blades, revealing a gorgeous keyhole back cutout. Made from comfortable and breathable stretch mesh fabric, this dress drapes over your figure and shows off your curves! Completely covered by an array of shimmering beads, a design featuring sequins clusters impressively weaves its way throughout the entirety of the dress. The bodice cuts off right under the bustline and is connected to the skirt by a panel of semi-sheer illusion mesh that wraps across your midriff, giving a Mesh in the Middle look. The mesh is delicately decorated by swirling streams of shimmering beads. This sparkling dress cascades to the floor with a sultry side slit detail hitting at your mid-thigh.
Styling Tips: Show off that incredible keyhole back with a loose chignon hairstyle that's enhanced by glittering beaded hair pins. While both color choices of this dress call for strappy silver shoes and teardrop-shaped silver earrings, the Platinum version would look amazing with a shimmering makeup look featuring highlighted cheekbones and iridescent eye shadow and the Midnight version would look stunning with a matte black smokey eye and rose colored matte lip!

G4S guards found not guilty of manslaughter of Jimmy Mubenga
Three private security guards who restrained the Angolan deportee Jimmy Mubenga have been cleared of manslaughter by a jury at the Old Bailey. The 46-year-old died after being restrained by the G4S guards on a British Airways flight on 12 October 2010. Terrence Hughes, 53, Colin Kaler, 52 and Stuart Tribelnig, 39, were a
ccused of manslaughter by forcing Mubenga's head down and restricting his breathing as the flight prepared to take off at Heathrow airport. The jury cleared them of the charges on Tuesday after a six-week trial.
The court had heard how fellow passengers said they heard Mubenga cry out: "I can't breathe" as he was pinned down in his seat, despite already being handcuffed from behind with his seatbelt on.

Bill Nash Jazz Bass JB-63 Daphne Blue Bass Guitar
Bill Nash Jazz Bass JB-63 Daphne Blue Bass Guitar
- Brand: Bill Nash
- Model: Jazz Bass
- Shipping and Payment
- Description
- Audio
- Video
- Specifications
! For sale is Bill Nash Jazz Bass JB-63 in an amazing Daphne Blue color with white stripe – it is a single exemplar in this color combination. It has Lollar pickups. Wonderful jazz bass is created to reproduce the old Fender sound! Bass-guitar condition: This bass is "fresh", if it's possible to say so. The year of production is 2014. It is difficult to judge its condition, since the guitar is relic. However, it works perfectly concerning its functions and has an ideal-vintage-relic condition. You can see everything in the photo. Feeling of old times is exactly the characteristic feature of Bill Nash guitars. Sound: The sound of these instruments needs to be heard in person. Of all the modern instruments trying to have the old-school Fender sound, Bill Nash is probably the most close to it. These bass guitars are made of high-quality wood, selected by Bill Nash for each guitar individually. The wood is always resonant, responsive and not too heavy. The peculiarity of sound lies in right-selected wood, due to which the right passive bass-guitar sound is formed. And good electronics makes the wood work more wonderfully. This Bill Nash guitar is classical in all aspects – well-selected alder body, maple neck, and rosewood fingerboard. The instrument has Lollar pickups, which are rare with bass guitars, but sound amazingly! The bass has wonderful highs and beautiful lows. It sounds just great in the mix as well as in solos. Tuning and convenience: It is a classical jazz bass , but every jazz bass has its nuances. This instrument is rather light, familiar and comfortable like any other jazz bass. Neck is well-balanced, profile is thick and similar to '90 Fender Jazz Bass necks. The instrument is perfectly tuned and I like the action a lot here. It has both great sustain and characteristic attack without picks and leaps in dynamics. Packaging: Bass guitar comes with the original hardshell case. There is a label with a serial number confirming its originality. General outcome and my subjective opinion: Having read the interview with Bill Nash, I learned that many famous musicians use his basses, sometimes even hide it. Why? Because they don't want to play pre-CBS Fenders at some small pub concerts, yet they want to preserve a great sound. That's why Nash guitars are the compromise. It's really good if to look at the pre-CBS price (10.000$ and more) and Nash price ($1600-2000). I now have 2 working instruments: 1975 Fender JB and this one, because I like alder. I strongly recommend you to try these instruments! I think you are going to like them!

When people watch sports on television, they may enjoy it as a pastime, but those who are athletes know the finer points of being able to perform the sport. Being an athlete takes a lot of work, and many athletes may not be up to the task of playing a sport. It's possible that an athlete will injure themselves, and the injury may cause them so much pain that they can no longer play their sport again. Even if the athlete does choose to continue playing, they may be playing in a lot of pain, and the pain may end up becoming worse.
Consider an injury to the back. If the back is injured, the more the athlete plays with the injured back, the more likely the back is to become even more painful. It's possible that the athlete may end up with severe back pains, which will then hurt their chances of playing in the future. If the back pain is not addressed, it's possible that the pain can become chronic, and the pain may not go away without surgery. Many people may need back surgery to correct pain that they are having in their back.
Although lumbar pains are one of the most common back pains out there, some people may not consider the pain to be bad, but if the back pain is chronic, then the pain is already bad. If surgery is needed to heal back pain, then North American Spine can help. North American Spine reviews show that they are responsible for helping over 8,000 of their patients by performing the AccuraScope procedure. The procedure has been successful for over 82% of patients that have visited North American Spine. Over 90% of the patients say they would recommend the AccuraScope procedure to others because of how much it's helped them. Although pain is not necessarily the fault of the athlete, staying in pain may become their own fault.
No athlete has to stay in pain, especially with so many resources available that can get rid of the pain. The AccuraScope procedure can be performed in less than an hour, and the best part is the fact that the athlete can continue healing at home because this is an outpatient procedure. Not only will the athlete be able to receive a surgical procedure to help their pain.

The vast inequities between communities is unnatural and unnecessary. It's an artifact of bad design and a false choice. Someone decided where transportation would flow and where it wouldn't, where the garbage and toxins would be taken, where the homes, offices and grocery stores would be built, and where they wouldn't. A thousand large and small decisions make up this imaginary place called the other side of the tracks.
The good news is it doesn't have to be this way. We live in a time of new tools to solve old problems. Technology makes us more efficient, and with more efficiency we can have less scarcity. That's also a design decision; a choice. We are privileged to live in a moment where it's possible to do more with less every single day. Is it crazy to think we might finally be able to take good care of everyone?
We think we can.

Taiwan: Taroko Gorge in Hualien (Part 1)
Travel Period : 30th Oct – 6th Nov 2012
{ Previous Post: Taiwan: Explore Ximending }
Day 7 Morning to Afternoon Itinerary:
- Taipei–>>
- Hualien (Taroko Gorge)
From Taipei to Hualien
Checking out of the hotel and leaving our two big luggage with Shin Shih Hotel (they agreed to let us place them there and collect it when we leave Taiwan), we reached the Taipei Main Railway with just one bagful of clothes and our backpacks.
We had to take a very early TRA train (Taroko Express) at 7.20am to Hualien to maximise our time as we have only one whole day to tour Hualien. The arrival time would be 9.25am. The return tickets were booked in advance two weeks before we came to Taiwan and we had collected it on our first day here (Return Trip fee costs NT$1584 for two tickets). The morning train ride to Hualien is very popular and one usually have to book it way in advance to ensure seats. As the seats were in twos, we let Dar sat on one of our laps and only bought two tickets.
Prior to arrival, we had arranged with the owner of the Hualien Bay homestay to take our luggage back to the homestay. They recommended a taxi driver who is also a tour guide and Mr Li An Sheng (李安生) would take us right to Taroko Gorge and surrounding Hualien areas. We would only be back to the homestay to sleep late at night.
As we stepped out of the train station, we noticed the vast area with a countryside feel and many taxis waiting around.
Steam Engine in a Park
We spotted an old steam engine on display outside the Hualien Train Station and quickly walked to it. The place turned out to be a small 'railway park' with some old steam engine and cargo containers around. Dar has always been interested in trains so he was very excited and wanted to go up to the 'driver's seat'. Not sure whether that is allowed though but I guess a little while wouldn't do much harm?
To Taroko Gorge (太鲁阁)
Soon, we reached the entrance to Taroko Gorge, part of the Taroko National Park and got down to take some pictures before we went ahead. The entrance of the Central Cross-Island Highway looks pretty with an ancient Chinese gate. Mr Li explained to us the things we were seeing and seemed very knowledgeable about the area. We spoke in Mandarin to him though. I enjoyed listening to him introducing the history of the area as he's not like those chatty tour guides and would offer information appropriately. He also allowed us to take our own sweet time to explore and didn't hurry us anywhere. When he saw us taking photographs, he would offer to take a group photo for us so we had plenty of family photos with good angles during this one day tour. All the photographs with the three of us in it were taken by him and I love them so much. (We have often encountered bad picture-taking with passer-by, so most of our family photo in this travel blog were taken by self-timer using gorillapod)
As we were very early, we didn't encounter tour buses of tourists and were glad to enjoy the serenity of the place.
He drove us to another part along the highway where there was a dam. We admired the pretty blue waters of the Liwu River for a while. It was the first time we saw such a pretty blue so we were quite excited.
We then got into the cab again where he drove us to a higher point. There was a booth where he collected three helmets for us to wear. As Taroko Gorge is a natural place and prone to rainfall and erosion, there might be loose rocks that could drop on us. It was also just after a bad monsoon period and they had some landslides recently. He felt it was safer for us to wear protection when we walked along the paths.
We were then told to start walking on the path and he would meet us at the end when we finished this part of the Gorge.
After sitting in the car and train for so long, we were in a good mood for a walk. Dar walked happily with us, breathing in the fresh cold air and listening to the sound of the waters. The natural formation of the rocks was pretty and we kept admiring the huge rocks beneath us and the clear blue waters of the stream. We were the only ones walking so we had a good time strolling and enjoying. The trail was wide and quite safe with the divider separating us from the main road.
Warning signs for when some people want to take crazy pictures on the other side of the fence. (Yes, there are some who would do that).
Finally, we walked to the famous spot, 'The Swallow Grotto' (燕子口), where many tour buses would stop to allow tourists to take pictures. We specially beat the crowd to be there early Monday morning. We had read up that throngs of people usually arrive in the afternoon.
It was named this way because erosion in the mountains had caused some holes to appear in the sides of the cliff, making them a perfect nesting place for swifts and swallows. We didn't see any though because they only appear during Spring or Summer season.
After that, we just kept walking along the path, enjoying the gorgeous views. On entering some tunnels, which was very dark, there was no footpaths so we just kept to the side of the road and took care to avoid vehicles. Here's some pictures of our walk.
Looking through the pictures, one might be wondering what was so great about all these rock formations? Aren't they all the same? Well, for people who love nature like us, the walk was quite an experience because of the huge natural environment, the fresh cool air and natural sounds. These can't be experienced through just looking at the photographs itself. The huge boulders and mountain sides above and below us also made us look at them in awe.
Look, this is how huge they are compared to me!
At some point, the path became just a narrow strip beside the main road. The traffic wasn't heavy so it was quite safe but it might be heavier later in the day when tour buses go through.
Soon, we reached the end of the 'Swallow Grotto' trail and saw the famous rock formation, 'Rock of the Indian Chief'. Can you spot the Chieftain's face? (Lower right, chin resting on the river bank, nose jutting out with the mountain side as his 'helmet')
Mr Li was waiting for us at the end of the trail and told us about Jinheng Bridge. The bridge was named after the Chief Engineer Jin Heng as a tribute. I was surprised at how the management valued the worker's contributions and placed them in memory. There was also a shrine built for workers whom had died building the highway for Taroko Gorge which he would drive us to later.
Jiuqudong ( 九曲洞 )
After we walked through the Jinheng Bridge, the pedestrian pathway disappeared and we have to be careful to keep to the side of the road where vehicles were passing through. As we walked, we marveled at the construction of the tunnel and well-maintained road through these hard marble rocks. It is a famous part of the gorge because the cliffs opposite each other are very close.
Cimu Bridge (慈母桥)
We walked a little more before he drove us to another tourist spot, a huge red bridge called, Cimu Bridge (慈母桥). There was an interesting rock formation beneath the bridge and we could all make out the interesting shape, like a frog prince.
A pavilion was built on this frog rock, becoming the crown on the frog. This was built by late President Chiang Jing-guo, in memory of his mother, during construction of the road. Cimu pavilion area is on the east side of the bridge, built by late President Chiang Kai-shek, in memory of his mother, Mrs. Wang.
More information: Taroko National Park Website
We stood on the bridge and admired the surrounding marble stones. Pristine white and pretty.
We had walked for about an hour. It was time for lunch and our guide drove us to a place where there were a few restaurants.
Side- Story: Lunch
While we were busy getting our things after getting out of the car, a staff from one of the restaurants, quickly came to persuade us to visit them. The carpark was still a distance away. We ignored her and she took Dar away from us and led him to the restaurant. By the time we realised Dar was gone and chased after him, we found him standing at the entrance, looking like he was about to cry because he was so worried we weren't there.
I wasn't too happy about it (how could you take someone's child away?!) but still went in to try their food, since we didn't know which restaurant was good and there were lots of people inside. Actually the food was just okay and the staff serving us was quite rude when we asked what was the contents of a certain dish. However, we were tired from our walk and just wanted to eat and not make a fuss. If I'm in an angry mood that day, I would most likely have given them a piece of my mind…First, taking my kid away without my permission, Second – rude service attitude when you guys were the one who pulled us in to visit your restaurant (first restaurant on the street).
After lunch, Mr Li showed us a pagoda on top of the mountain which belongs to Xiangde Temple, a buddhist temple (top right structure in the picture below). As the temple requires believers to ascend through steps and not accessible by vehicles, it is a kind of pilgrimage trail.
We were tired so even though we were curious, we decided not to go all the way up. We walked up to a pavilion halfway to relax and take in the surrounding view instead.

Perhaps a good tour guide/cab driver who you have had good experiences with?
Much thanks in advance.

Thanks for such a detailed commentary. I'm glad that you and your family had a great time in Hualien.

Thanks so much!

Implementing EMRs to Deliver Better Patient Care
The Pediatric Physicians' Organization at Children's (PPOC) Hospital Boston partnered with eClinicalWorks to implement a three-year electronic
medical records (EMR) initiative. eClinicalWorks' unified electronic medical record and practice management software enables PPOC practices to
deliver the best possible patient care by enabling more efficient, effective, accurate, and safe pediatric medicine.
"Children's Hospital Boston is a known leader in advancing pediatric medicine," said Girish Kumar Navani, CEO and co-founder of eClinicalWorks.
"We are proud to partner with their affiliated pediatric primary care practices and are working closely with PPOC members to provide a
comprehensive EMR system to enhance the quality of care delivered. This system is showing substantial benefits, and will continue to offer a
positive impact on the care those children receive."
" Deliver clinical excellence. The PPOC needed to record and share data in a secure environment so they could monitor and improve
quality without adding the burdens of time-consuming, redundant data entry or IT support to their already busy work days.
" Improve operational effectiveness. Busy PPOC clinicians wanted to implement an EMR with minimal interruption to their
workflow. This required a partner whose software could flex to meet the specific needs of individual practices instead of medical personnel
flexing to fit the software.
" Share data. The PPOC's goal was to improve clinical decision support and the overall health of the population they serve by improving
the quality of, and access to, patient data. With an eye to the future, they are planning to create points of integration with Children's EMR and
lay the groundwork for delivering Personally Controlled Health Records (PCHRs).
" Highly customizable application benefits diverse practices. The EMR was tailored to each PPOC practice ensuring
that their specific needs were met. eClinicalWorks' adapted its unified EMR and practice management software, providing pediatric-specific
dosage calculators and immunization forms, and creating custom templates as appropriate.
" Industry standards minimize risk and leverage investment. The PPOC adhered to standards established by the
Certification Commission for Health Information Technology (CCHIT) to ensure its EMR is well positioned for additional future integration and
functionality in a rapidly changing healthcare environment.
" Software as a Service (SaaS) model frees up clinicians to focus on patient care. A third-party vendor provided
all site-specific hardware. The PPOC made training clinicians a top priority so they could be up and running as efficiently and effectively
as possible. The IT staff at Children's manages centralized hosting and support, allowing PPOC practices to focus their time and energy on
providing excellent patient care.
" Ninety percent of practices report financial gain. PPOC practices cite productivity improvements in their billing and front
offices. More accurate and complete coding lead to more consistent reimbursements. Better record keeping means fewer duplicated tests.
Economies of scale in equipment purchases and centralized hosting save practices money.
" Sixty-seven percent of practices report that the EMR implementation has improved quality of
patient care. Real-time, more accurate patient data is available to practitioners at the point of care. Mistakes attributed to illegible
handwriting have been virtually eliminated.
" Moving toward consistent, comprehensive community health records. The PPOC collaborated with
eClinicalWorks to capture and report practice data on such conditions as asthma, attention deficit hyperactivity disorder, and weight
management that currently resides in a variety of locations. They are currently working on centrally managed lab compendiums to ensure
consistency between practices.

Welcome back ! Hope you had a great holiday ! :)
First off, I'd like to thank you for your continued support of my work and the amazingness that I've experienced so far on this journey ! As for 2014, I plan to step things up a notch, and the first start to that is beginning to send out newsletters and updates every so often, with news, new photos or other exciting info :) So if you'd like to stay up to date on my latest adventures, new releases, have pretty pictures delivered right to your inbox, and be the first to know, please take a second to sign up below, and we promise not to spam you :) Thanks ! And you can continue to scroll down below to see the photo of the day!
Night Time by The Paramount
This is a photo I took on the night of the tree lighting in Boston. I got there a bit early and decided to try to get some shots of the town while it was kind of empty, as everyone was at the common waiting for the lighting of the tree!
It took me quite a bit to get this shot, as I was right near a cross walk, as that was the best location for the shot I wanted, and without fail I'd get someone running in front of my camera, or even standing in front of it, almost every time, but I should be use to it by now.
But in the end, as usual, patience pays off and I went home with this great image, as well many others that will be appearing on here soon enough, as I plan to try posting photos more frequently, ideally once a day again, but I'm not sure how practical that will be for me to do, but keep an eye out, for there is much more to come!

Kevin Costner prevails over Baldwin bro in slippery lawsuit
"The bigger celebrity won" in a lawsuit over an oil spill cleanup device worth millions. Read on to find out why Kevin Costner risked a trial instead of offering a settlement to his former investor, actor Stephen Baldwin.
In the battle royale between Kevin Costner and Stephen Baldwin, Robin Hood won, of course. Costner has prevailed in a suit claiming he and business partner Patrick Smith conspired to cut Baldwin out of a lucrative contract with BP involving an oil and water centrifuge spill cleanup device.
A jury rejected Baldwin's claim less than two hours after closing arguments finished.
So why go to trial? Why didn't Costner just settle and get the thing over with? Time is money, right?
"My name means more to me than money and that's why we didn't settle," Costner told reporters outside the New Orleans federal courtroom.
Baldwin sued Costner and his business partner for allegedly failing to reveal ongoing negotiations with BP to sell 32 of the devices for $52 million. Baldwin banked just $500,000 when he sold his shares in the company shortly before the sale went through — and he wanted more than $17 million in damages to make up for it.
Not gonna happen.
"We're disappointed," Baldwin's lawyer James Cobb said. "We thought we proved rather convincingly that these two guys, Mr. Costner and Mr. Smith, defrauded us. The jury saw it a different way but we respect the jury's verdict," adding, "the bigger celebrity won."
Tell us: Do you think the jury was swayed by Costner's brighter star power?
