So when I snuck over there and spent the afternoon one summer Friday, completely mystified by this girl and her home life, I knew better than to let on where I'd been. I sat over there and watched Becky smoke and watched her yell at her mother and wondered how many times Becky had had her butt whupped and suspected that it was very rarely, if ever. Some boys showed up, and per my normal routine where it concerned boys, I took off my glasses. (You know boys don't make passes at girls who wear glasses.)Even though I was only thirteen I knew this fact.
I didn't do anything wrong. Just sat there and squinted while Becky flirted and I listened to her mother complain, and watched the boys flock around Becky like bees to honey. Finally I left, and went on home, thinking I had pulled off a major sneak, until I walked in the door. Supper was on the table. Daddy was in his chair in the living room waiting to be called in to the table. I wondered briefly when he'd gotten home. He seemed to be early. Other than that, everything was normal. Until I reached up to push my glasses up on my nose, and discovered that they were still at Becky's house!
You have to understand that our house was run like a corporation. Everything done on routine, everything in it's place, kids who were seen and not heard. There was no way I could show up at the dinner table without my glasses without getting the third degree, and there was no way I could go back out that door while supper was on the table. It was unheard of. I was in a tight spot.
"Call your father to the table." My mother said as I passed through the kitchen, strategically keeping my naked face turned away from her where she stood at the stove.
I passed through the living room on the fly, my head down...
"Daddy, supper's ready." I said, and went on to my room. I had no idea what I was going to do. The best I could think to do was hide. So when Daddy came to my door five minutes later I was in bed with the covers pulled over my head.
"Girl, your supper's getting cold."
"I'm sick Daddy. I'm gonna sleep."
"What's the matter with you?" He asked, a hint of concern in his voice.
"I have a headache. I just need to close my eyes."
"I'll tell your mother." He said, and then, "you've been wearing your glasses right? You know you get headaches when you don't wear your glasses."
He knew. How did he know? He knew something. Oh Lord.
"Yes, I've been wearing them." I lied.
The minute he went back to the kitchen I was in my mother's room on the phone, begging my best friend Sherry.
"Please, please, you have to go get them for me! It's only a block, Sherry! Just go get them and bring them to my bedroom window. Hurry!"
Within ten minutes Sherry rapped on my bedroom window.
"You owe me." She whispered, as we lifted the window screen and she passed me my glasses. I sighed with relief and promised her my first born child or whatever other ridiculous thing she wanted. Now that I had my glasses back safely on my nose it occurred to me that my stomach was rumbling. Now that I had my cheaters back, there was no real reason I couldn't go back and get my share of that fried chicken that was on the table. If I didn't hurry I was going to be stuck with the back, which didn't have enough meat on it to satisfy a cat.
When I appeared at the table neither of my parents looked up. I was so focused on the chicken leg on the platter in the middle of the table that I didn't find that unusual. Second mistake. What was the first? Besides being where I wasn't supposed to be? Lying to my father. I just didn't know he knew yet.
"Feeling better?" He asked, still not looking up. It also didn't dawn on me how quiet it was at the table. When you get five people, now six, together at the dinner table there's generaly some noise, utensils clacking, talking, etc. At this point it was quiet as a tomb. That should have been a major red flag, but what did I have to be scared of, all was right with my world again. I had pulled it off. Gotten away with it.
I had the chicken leg halfway to my mouth when he dropped the bomb.
"What were you doing over that girl's house?"
My mouth went so dry I couldn't have managed to eat watermelon, much less fried chicken.
"Don't 'sir' me, and don't play stupid. I saw you come out of there on your bike not thirty minutes ago. What were you told about going over there?"
There was no choice but to tell the truth, now that he knew anyway.
"I was only over there for a few minutes." I said. Okay. Partial truth.
"What did we tell you about keeping those glasses on your nose? Do you know how much those things cost? We didn't buy them so you could leave them laying around. Do you think I'm blind? I noticed you didn't have them on your face the second I saw you. You're the one that needs glasses remember, not me. I can see like a hawk. Especially when it comes to my kids. I don't know how you got them back so fast but I know this...you were where you weren't supposed to be and you lied to us. There's only one thing to do, as far as I can see."
I sighed and put down my chicken leg.
"Go cut me a switch and wait for me in my room."
The cutting the switch and the waiting part was worse than the switching, although my legs were left with stripes, a few of them deep enough to seep tiny dots of blood. But through it all I knew in my heart that I was getting my just desserts. It never occured to me to feel that I was being abused or to think that Daddy might have been out of line. There was a different kind of justice back then, and kids knew that you screwed up, you paid the price if you got caught, and we knew that we were the ones who brought the whole thing about, and looking back I can't think of a single instance where I got my butt torn up that I didn't have it coming.
Becky is in her forties now. She has six kids from four different fathers, and just like her, her kids are growing up in a house with no father in it, and I suspect that they rarely get their butts whupped, if ever, and I don't care what the psychologists say, that's a crying shame.

When Poncho the opossum was found on the side of the road, his chances of surviving didn't look good. He was too small to take care of himself and was suddenly found without a mother. Good thing there are good samaritans like Hantu the dog around. Hantu "adopted" the orphaned opossum and cared for it like the puppy she never had.
The heartwarming story of inter-species friendship can serve as a powerful lesson to us humans too. If you ever see someone in need, no matter how different they are from you, you can care for them and make a positive impact on their life. The bond between Hantu and Poncho goes strong to this day.
Be sure to SHARE this touching friendship with all of your friends and family.

The past few weeks have been challenging in my walk of faith. Not that God has ever wavered or given me reason to distrust His faithfulness, but I have allowed lies and external circumstances that were meant to test the integrity of my calling to dislodge my focus and cause me to buckle under the weight of my own fears and insecurities. Nevertheless, the Lord has been relentless to use truths in His Word and the beloved about me (and most certainly the Socality Journal devotionals) to remind me of the weight of God's glory made known to us through Christ that makes light these momentary afflictions. Oh, the adventure of faith.
As we learn from looking into the life of Abraham and the undeserved grace given him by God in that epic promise in Genesis 12:1-3, there is hope in knowing that God's promises aren't conditioned on our faithfulness or successes. If this is so, then the boasting would be ours and not in God. Instead, the promises of God are initiated by Him, carried out through Him, and bestowed on His Son with whom we are co-heirs. My response now must be obedience to "leave that old country and move to a new country of grace."
It's humbling to know that as I grow in the grace and knowledge of Christ, these will always be truths that I need to relearn. God uses my ventures of faith to expose my own inadequacies, dismantle any tendency towards self-preservation when I'm called to die to self, and redirect my sufficiency to be solely sourced in Him. That's why it's such a comfort to know that followers of Christ have been given the Holy Spirit as a Helper to boldly walk in obedience.
I love that our Helper is called the Spirit of Truth.
"We need this because we also have an enemy who is known as the prince of lies. If Satan hasn't keep you from entering into a relationship with Jesus, his next goal is to keep you from fully experiencing the truth that keeps you free and fulfilling your God-given potential."
That encouragement needs little to no commentary. It is so easy to be caught in the torrents of my own feelings channeled by the winds of my own fleshly opinions and expectations. Satan uses these hiccups in my venture of faith to doubt God's sovereignty that sees the end of my journey to be glorious in Him. He will even stir up bitterness in my own heart to weigh my vessel down and compromise my seaworthiness. We must be rebuked and reminded, dear saint, that we were not redeemed to be victims, but victors in Christ.
O thanks be to God who gives me Himself as a Helper to come along me and dwell in me. Christ said that in this world you will have tribulation, but what joy is it to know that He has overcome and He will never abandon or forsake me? Unspeakable joy. This is His undeserved grace: He cares. In this adventure of faith, through flame and flood, He is still God, I am still His, and I can look forward to awaking in glory. This is every reason to press on.

In the last decades, there has been a movement which recognizes that there is a big market at the bottom of the social pyramid[1]. This has led to movements for service provision to the poor, including Inclusive Finance[2] and Microjustice. Inclusive finance entails providing financial services to the poor, while Microjustice entails providing legal services for the poor, in a sustainable, donor-independent way. The bottom line of this movement is that products for the poor are not donor-dependent but become sustainable through income from the client group
In the market context, the Microjustice4All Legal Unit can be seen as a product development and implementation unit, the Microjustice4All Social Unit can be seen as a marketing and distribution unit and legal education and awareness-raising can be seen as a form of marketing. In addition, the MJ4All Methodology is based on the following market-inspired concepts, such as economies of scale, cost-efficiency and clients (rather than beneficiaries).
MJ4All as a BoP Product
The Bottom of the Pyramid (BoP)[3] refers to the people in the lowest economic sector of society. According to Paul Collier, approximately one billion people across the globe are at the BoP. Most businesses have traditionally ignored people at the BoP, as they were perceived to be too poor to be viable consumers. However, in order to survive, they still need certain basic products. This opens up a market with one billion customers, albeit a market for very low priced products. Penetrating the BoP market requires an innovative, and yet simple, approach, based on the following concepts:
- Be ready to collaborate with non-traditional partners
- Include local partners that can actively contribute to identify the needs of the potential consumers.
- Must enable local partners to build the business based on their own capacities.
The philosophy behind the BoP theory is that innovative businesses can be created to reduce poverty and support society and the environment. While this can be achieved by creating employment opportunities for the poor, they can also be considered as partners and as a valuable resource for innovative technology. It must be recognized, however, that these are long processes which do not offer immediate results[4].
Microjustice4All aims to reach those at the BoP and the MJ4All Methodology follows the reasoning of the BoP theory to bring justice to people with limited resources. This enables marginalized people to fully enjoy their rights.
Access to rights can only become a BoP product if the target group has an interest in accessing their rights. Traditionally, these people have been excluded from the system and, therefore, there is no culture of accessing rights. Those at the BoP perceive access to their rights as impossible or unnecessary. In order to change the culture of exclusion, the rights need to be connected to a specific benefit through an effective awareness-raising campaign.
The principles of the BoP theory are reflected throughout the MJ4All Methodology. For example:
- Affordable prices: since those at the BoP have very limited resources, Microjustice4All products and services must be affordable.
- Joint development of Microjustice4All Products: one of the principles of the BoP theory is that the services and products must be created and developed within the specific community as they are in the best position to identify their needs. Microjustice4All must aim to establish an open dialogue with members of the community to find adequate solutions to their needs and leave behind any pre-conceived ideas as to what people's basic needs are.
- Innovation: Microjustice4All can reach the BoP, offering innovative products and services, tailored to the needs of people. This requires a deep understanding of the needs of the target group.
- Investment in education: providing products and services for the BoP market requires investment in educating people about the benefits of these. Most people at the BoP have no legal education and are unaware of the benefits of legal protection.
Whereas Microfinance offers people the means to getting access to a number of development issues, Microjustice is the precondition for obtaining such access.
[1] This movement was started by C K Prahalad, Professor of Corporate Strategy at the University of Michigan, USA, and S L Hart, Professor of Management at Cornell University, USA.
[2] This is also known as Microfinance.
[3] 'The Bottom Billion' as defined and described by Paul Collier in his book of 2007.

I'm so excited I might just burst! A brand new scrapbooking store just opened in Saskatoon and the owner is a wonderful lady I met a year or two ago at my favorite annual crop.
Lori has made her dream a reality and it's really just getting started!
Let's take a look at her baby:
Lori has brought a ton of wonderful lines to Saskatoon. I'm not sure if I love her or hate her because I wanted to buy EVERYTHING!!
The store is full of wonderful ideas - look at all those layouts on display! Did I mention she's hired an extremely talented team to help her out working at the store?!
How cute is this?!!
Details, details, details! Each section is labelled with those cute little banners! Here: Fancy Pants Designs & Imaginisce
I LOVE these rub ons! I wanted to buy them all!! Right now there's a little bit of empty space around the store because Lori didn't want to stock old products - only the newest and the bestest! :)
Wha?! Glitter brads? Why, yes, I do want some of those!!
I love how Lori has incorporated decorative storage into her shop. This wall currently has a bunch of white products, perfect for wedding season!
Ummm, do you think she'd notice if I stole this adorable wire dress form?! You do? Oh. :(
And here she is - the superstar herself! Lori & Me!
And now more details on what I spent my money on!
Lori had a whole section of Wizard of Oz stuff - perfect seeing as how I just saw WICKED!! That yellow & grey patterned paper - I've been looking for something JUST like that for a while now to go with my grey & yellow obsession (for my office!)
The Scrapbook & Cards Today magazine was a bonus with my purchase! Whoot! AND that neat bag - buying one of those means that every time I come back to shop with it I get entered into a draw!
See - I really do love the dress form stuff - I had to buy the rub ons! The glitter brads too!! Glue dots are a staple in my world - if you haven't tried them, you must! GEEK IS CHIC - I don't think I really need to explain this one!
And I finally bought myself a pad of Staz On ink. If you haven't heard of this stuff before you're missing out. Staz On work on things that normal ink would rub off of - like plastics, glass, metal, etc. I have a project in mind already that I'll hopefully be able to show you soon!
In addition to the above pictured goodies I bought a membership at the store. They have 2 levels of membership - regular & gold. I went with the regular membership for now, but can always upgrade later if I change my mind (the gold membership gets you a discount on classes & kits - not sure if I'll make use of that yet...) I get a 10% discount when I shop there, and there's a little something special on your birthday too! There's a little more to it (getting to use their crop room, etc.) but I've misplaced my sheet with all the deetz!
Lastly - like a lot of other scrapbook shops they have a stamp card & when you spend XX dollars you get XX dollars free. BUT unlike a lot of other stores they ROUND UP!! Whoo! So if I spend $26 I get $30 stamped on my card! I'm pretty sure the other stores in my city don't do this! :)
Well, there you have it! Brand new scrapbooking store & things are only going to get better! The store is far from where I live right now, BUT super close to work... delightfully dangerous!

History and legend has it that the Hispanic name "Pagsanjan" (Pag-sang-han) was originally derived by the early Spanish colonizers from the Tagalog word "Pinagsangahan", meaning 'branching' or 'juncture' because it is located where the rivers Balanac and Bumbungan merge to empty into the great Laguna de Bay.
Pagsanjan first loomed in history as a barrio of Lumban, a town founded in 1578 by the famous Fray Juan de la Plasencia, a Franciscan missionary-historian. In 1668, the first settlers of Pagsanjan were eight Christian Chinese and Japanese traders who were highly impressed by the strategic location of the barrio at the juncture of two rivers, Balanac and Bumbungan. They established their trading settlement in Pagsanjan and engaged in the betelnut industry, which in due time became a flourishing trading center of Eastern Laguna. Lured by the burgeoning prosperity of the settlement, many native families from Lumban, Cavinti, Sta. Cruz and Pila migrated to Pagsanjan.
In December 12, 1668, then Governor-General Juan Manuel de la Peña Bonifaz issued a gubernatorial decree creating the barrio of Pagsanjan as a town. The first gobernadorcillo elected was Pagsanjan's Cabeza de Barangay Francisco Umale. In 1687, Fray Agustin de la Magdalena became Parish Priest of the newly established Parish. He chose Mexico's Our Lady of Guadalupe as Pagsanjan's Patroness.
For 170 years (1688-1858), Pagsanjan was the capital of the province of Laguna. During this long period, the town basked in the magnificent glow of greatness. Pagsanjan bloomed as the commercial, cultural and learning center of the province, and was called the "Athens of Laguna."
The "Puerta Real" or the Town Gate was constructed from 1878 to 1880. It was inaugurated in 1894 by Don Pedro A. Paterno, and was restored in 1975 by then Mayor Gregorio F. Zaide, an internationally known historian.
Pagsanjan was occupied by the Revolutionists in 1896; by the Americans in 1899; by the Japanese in 1942; and liberated by the Filipinos in 1945. In recent years, Pagsanjan has become the premiere, world-class tourist destination in the Philippines, owing to its natural scenic wonders and the most visited waterfalls in the country - the famous "Pagsanjan Falls". Pagsanjan is also a favorite location for the shooting of local and international filmmakers like Francis Ford Coppola's "Apocalypse Now", which was filmed here from 1975 to 1976.
Like a graceful swan, Pagsanjan perches on the riparian delta formed by the confluence of two cool rivers , called Balanac and Bumbungan, situated 101 kilometers southeast of Manila, easily accessible by car or bus. It consists of 16 barangays with a total land area of 2,640 has (26.40 sq.km.). Pagsanjan is the tourism center of the Province of Laguna.
Pagsanjan is the home of the most hospitable, friendly and peace-loving people. Pagsanjeños are sweet, beautiful, warmhearted and fiesta-loving. It is a town rich in cultural heritage as revealed in their richfolklore, customs and traditions, and colorful fiestas.
Richly dowered by God with natural wonders, Pagsanjan boasts of its awe-inspiring gorge, the roaring rapids, and the enchanting waterfalls, the lush virginal, tropical forests and fertile gardens, the everflowing springs and breathtaking panoramic vistas.
Adorning the town is the centuries-old national treasure, the "Puerta Real" a stone royal arch, standing like a lone sentinel at the western entrance to the old, Hispanic pueblo. The historic stone town gate with three Roman arches and topped by two lions guarding Spain's royal escutcheon stands as a memento of the glory that was Pagsanjan, back when it was the capital of Laguna during the Spanish colonial days. Many Pagsanjeño polistas labored for 2 years to finish this arch.
Along the wide main street, "Calle Real", are traces of the past: picturesque old houses, churches, and the town square.
Pagsanjan is a little town of global fame, diversity and filled with fun, water-activities. Experience the colorful traditions, sights, sounds, vibrant colors and culinary treats.
Experience the "unforgettable thrill of a lifetime" in the wet, oozing and wild sojourn, that is Pagsanjan! Truly worth it!
Pagsanjan, the tourist capital of the province of Laguna and one of the premiere world-class tourist destinations in the Philippines, is gifted with natural wonders and scenic views. It is inarguably famous for its rapids. These aesthetic features of the town attract tourists for whom manmade and initiated tourism support accommodations, facilities and services are focused.
The main attraction of the town is its natural wonders - the stark natural beauty of the Pagsanjan River, the awe-inspiring gorge, the breathtaking roaring rapids and the spectacular world-famous waterfalls, the "Pagsanjan Falls".
Actually, the real name of the majestic waterfalls is "Magdapio Falls" located in the next town, Cavinti. However, the falls has been popularly known as "Pagsanjan Falls" because the trip to the waterfalls, referred to as "shooting the rapids", starts from Pagsanjan, passes through part of Lumban, then to Cavinti.
It begins benignly enough in the still headwaters of the river, then rapidly churning to make it the ride of your life. You will enjoy the thrill and adventure of "shooting the rapids" which is the boatride experience of a lifetime.
On the way to the magnificent waterfalls, one may feel the relaxing atmosphere and beauty brought by the experience of harmony with nature. While entering the tropical gorge, one will see wild orchids, ferns, vines, spiders, dragonflies, lizards on the rocks, chattering monkeys and the beautiful sun rays passing through the trees, touching the peaceful water, and high above are the multicolored birds flirting in the bushes.
It is a must for people visiting Pagsanjan. Two to three tourist passengers are treated to a thrilling river ride on board a "banca" or "canoe" expertly paddled and bodily lifted upstream against the strong current through an amazingly pristine panorama of primeval forest. It is then maneuvered downstream between the picturesque canyon walls, and through the rapids, rocks and roaring current at breathtaking speed by two seasoned and skilled "bangkeros" or "boatmen." The pair of tourist passengers should synchronize their positions to maintain balance.
With the dexterity and skill of boatmen who have spent their whole lives on the river, a navigator and a pilot will safely guide your "banca" on an exciting two-hour journey. At times, you will be skimming through the gorge with walls of rock mass formations and vines that rise up over a hundred meters. There will also be times when you will be tossed and twisted through the rapids as you speed downstream to the two towering waterfalls. Depending on the water's height, there are a total of 12 to 16 rapids altogether. Upon reaching the last major waterfalls, you can transfer from the "banca" to a "balsa" or "bamboo raft" that will take you through the cascading water to a hidden cave (which looks like the profile of a devil) formed by the walls of the gorge.
It is as exhilarating, spine-tingling, adrenaline-pumping, two-hour boatride from the Bumbungan River to the "Pagsanjan Falls", whose booming water cascades down the 300-feet cliff in full view. The falling waters fill the place with thunderous sound.
Traveling along the watercourse and shooting the 16 roaring rapids is definitely one big heart and nerve-breaking adventure.
From Pagsanjan to the main falls is 5.38 kilometers.

Stability Watch Views
"Stability Watch" is a report from Rmetrics offering views on the stability of historical economic indicators and financial time series. The report helps everybody to watch non-stationarities, instabilities and stressed scenarios in historical time series.
The reports may also help, even if not guaranteed, to detect during early stages indications that severe changes and instabilities may occur in the near future. The aspects which are considered by the Stability Watch report are (i) Value, (ii) Volatility, (iii) Multiresolution, and (iv) Robustness or Stability.
We apply modern statistical approaches to the analysis of the time series. Time Series analysis with fat tailed innovations, robust modeling with GARCH models, phase space embedding approaches from chaos theory for time series pattern analysis, identification and extraction of unstable pattern which can be used in stress testing. Other approaches are concerned with time/frequency multi-resolution analysis with wavelets, robust covariance estimation including minimum covariance determinant, shrinkage und random matrix theory approaches, and spline smoothed divergence indicators, amongst others.
The Value View shows the time series values on a linear or logarithmic scale, gives the probabilities of a structural change or break for each data point using a Bayesian Monte Carlo approach, identifies likely outlying points by phase space embedding and robust covariance analysis, and displays ranges of World (US) recessions.
The Volatility View shows the time series volatilities, identifies stressed or unstable reward patterns by phase space embedding and robust covariance analysis, and displays also the ranges of World (US) recessions. Volatility estimates are displayed and outlying points are identified by robust volatility estimation due to leveraged interquartile range GARCH models with lambda distributed innovations
The Multiresolution View offfers a time/frequency wavelet analysis allowing to consider and interpret the data on different resolutions and scales.
The Stability View uses a phase space embedding approach of data sequences. Robust covariance analysis of these sequences allows the detection and identification of outlying values in mean and variance. The results are represented as divergence plots of the probabilities by smoothed splines.

Creates a menu from your sections.
This plugin will allow you to create a customized menu from your TXP sections. The plugin includes the ability to hide certain sections, rearrange the order, and wrap in your favorite block level tag!
Required for v0.3 : Download mdp_lib (but not in newest versions)
If there is a comment form at the Information URL, you may want to leave your comments/questions there for quicker feedback. Otherwise, comment away:

Basicaly, I mean, if I got it right, to change the order, I should enter manually the order into the tag. This seems to mean that I don't need the function then, I could just spill out the html, because this ain't dynamic.
Am I wrong, or am I wrong?
Save the text file. Open it, then copy and paste all the text in there to the Admin -> Plugins -> Install Plugin text box, and click the install button. If all is well, you should see some code (PHP) listed, then click the 'install' button.
Finally, don't forget to click the 'No' link under 'Activated' for this plug-in in the plug-ins list, in order for it to become activated (changes to 'Yes') and therefore usable!!
I have not found any instructions on how to use the tag in html page templates, but from the code it seems to be:
... where:
A = "noshow" (default: ''),
B = "class" (default: ''),
C = "id" (default: ''),
D = "home" (default: 1),
E = "order" (default: ''),
F = "wrap" (default: "ul"),
G = "break" (default: "li")
The "order" parameter will list the order of section names, looking something like:
"products,aboutus,blog,contact" etc. This clearly means that you will need to update the tag whenever a section is added/removed – so it's not totally 'dynamic', as was mentioned above.
Hope that helps someone.

According to last reports, 30% of Americans consumers don't build savings. That means that when they consider making a big purchase they rely on the opportunity to get a loan. Frankly speaking, even consumers who have money in their saving accounts use credit products, especially if they need to purchase property or vehicle.
Today it's almost impossible to imagine life with no credit cards, mortgages and other types of loans.
Unfortunately, sometimes a loan becomes a burden. There are many consumers struggling from their debts. They do their best to get out of debt but not all the efforts are the same efficient. There are ways to deal with debt which really work. Just follow these tips and you will see your big debt melting.
Pay off The Most Expensive Loan First
People trying to deal with a few loans are in more complicated situation where it's easy to get confused and to make the wrong step. If you decided to eliminate your debt then start from making a list of loans you have. Put all the details on a list to see which debt is the most expensive and start paying it down aggressively.
So-called avalanche method will save you money so in the end you will pay less on the interest rate than if you would chose making payments according to normal schedule. It's always better to start with paying down the highest interest loan, whether it's a home loan, personal loan or a credit card. But keep making on time payments also on your other loans and stay responsible.
Boost Your Income and Set Right Priorities
Consider ways to increase your income and use every opportunity to pay more on your loans. You may think that small additional payments will not solve big problem but it's not worth underestimating this method. A simple calculation will allow you to see that the more you pay the sooner you will get out of debt. And for sure you will save money on paying down the interest rate.
It's important to set right priorities concerning your financial life. Paying down the debt should be the main priority and all the extra money you receive should be used against your loan. The more aggressive you will make payments the sooner you will notice an impressive result.
Learn how to deal with debt collectors.
Change Your Spending Behavior
It's important to understand that paying down a massive debt requires significant efforts and for sure they will impact your lifestyle. During the debt elimination it's better to forget about your wants and direct all efforts against your debt.
Think twice before using a credit card or applying to personal loans lender in the US. You will face many opportunities for spending money and some things will seem really important. But make smart decisions and understand that home renovation or vacation can wait.
When you will get out of debt you will be able to save money and pay more attention to your wants. But when you're in debt focus on your problems, put them on the first place and it will make you pay down the debt faster and save money on paying down the interest.

I've now made two jackets using Vogue pattern V8232. The jacket is unlined with no closures. It's very easy to make and a current style. The dress is a good pattern too, very classy.I made the first one about a year ago from a plain black cotton.
I made this second jacket from a vintage fabric I picked up at the thrift store. The fabric was already cut in pieces and I had to be pretty tricky to make it work, especially because it's a plaid. For this jacket, I shortened the sleeves and lengthened the body. I haven't worn the jacket yet. I need to figure out an outfit for it but hopefully I will soon.

What a great thrift store find, and a nice jacket :)ReplyDelete
I love the plaid jacket. I would wear it with black or dark blue slim fit jeans and a white t-shirt. Maybe some black slacks if I want to make it a little more business casual.ReplyDelete
I love, love, love it! especially the plaid!ReplyDelete
I Lula, came across your site via Jessica. Great jacket... I haven't tried a vogue pattern and may try my hand at V8232.ReplyDelete
LOVE the plaid jacket, too cute!ReplyDelete
Thank you for visiting my blog! I love getting comments and always visit links when available.

5717 Hora Mundi watch
In Breguet replica all watch the series, Classiques Classic series is the best embodies the traditional values of the brand and exquisite watchmaking standard series, the series is Breguet a perfect heritage 200 years of history, their salient features affecting advanced watch making history. Breguet at the 2011 Baselworld launch of the new Classique 5717 HoraMundi watch the essence of the series will undoubtedly highlight. This table made from precious materials from: 18K rose gold or 950 platinum. Optional 3 Dial: North and South America, Asia or Eurasia and Oceania — points table represents one of the world's borders, a total of six models. Breguet team took three years to design, develop and improve this complicated watch. This is the moment when the first jump with a display area of mechanical watches. This feature allows travelers to easily read the time two preselected time zone, simply press a button, you can instantly switch does not interfere in the case of travel time from one time zone to another time zone. Stop seconds system ensures that the set-up process accurate travel time, time zone change will not affect the time, but also by "tracking" calendar system synchronize the date and day / night indicator.
The new 5717 Hora Mundi Seiko watches are famously modifications, such as translucent lacquered dial, will become the focus beautiful appearance traveler favorites. This is a follow its legitimacy watch from the brand history. Indeed, the founder Abraham-Louis Breguet's life, he could not imagine his enthusiasm and watch making talent all over the world by Breguet to watch so widespread. When he created the brand Horloge in Paris, Quai de l', initially only sell his works in France. However, long before the French Revolution occurred, Abraham-Louis Breguet had been aware of him to ensure that his work can be appreciated across borders to other peoples. In the Napoleonic period and the subsequent period of time, he fully engaged, aiming at the establishment of an international sales network. To achieve this goal, he came up with a very personal strategy, namely, by enlightened friends and professional sales staff to promote the market. When Breguet timepieces while the UK, Spain and Russia, was wildly popular, they are also of Poland, the German states and principalities of the Italian peninsula, Turkey and even as far away as the United States sought after.
To commemorate the founder traveled extensively footprint, Breguet replica watches was launched in 1996, first paragraph Hora Mundi watch, under the Marine product line. The 2011 is Zoran has different functions. In addition to central hour, minute and second hands, which watches also use drag-type display plate to achieve complete original date display.
The display panel is located within the 12 o'clock position on the dial window. Three consecutive days is sufficient window displayed simultaneously. For example, in the 25th day of the month, figures from left to right across the 25 date display window within 24 hours. Gradually, originally displayed in the right-hand number 23 disappeared, then 24, 26 figures emerge from the left, and then 27. However, in order to avoid confusion when reading date, Breguet craftsmen who made further improvements. They added a miniature retrograde drag the pointer calendar system, hidden under the dial and in the terminal with a small circle. The date of emergence from the left side of the window, this ring will be framed this date, and with the movement of the date is moved in the day time, until the date of today's date from the right side of the window disappears. At night, with the ring pointer jumps back to the left side of the window, indicating the new date has just begun. This unique drag calendar display design, the purpose is to make it easier to read the calendar.
However, this watch is the most representative of the initiative when it instantly jump area display system, which can simultaneously display the date, day / night indication and the city, which for mechanical replica watches uk is undoubtedly the world's first. This function supports the wearer preselected cities in 24 time zones to be displayed in the list two cities local time. The wearer can by pressing the crown / buttons 8:00 position, triggering an instant jump instantaneously toggle between the two time zones. For example, assume that the current time is Paris time at 16:00 on the 25th of this month. Turn the crown / button combination to make the 6 o'clock position display window "Paris", which was then adjusted the crown at 3 o'clock on the pointer is set to 4:00, and the date to 25 days, please note that at this day / night indicator It appears as the sun graphics. To quickly read at this time in Sydney local time, first by turning the crown / button combination will appear in the Australian city name 6 o'clock window; then watch automatically set to Sydney time. Due to the time difference between the two is nine hours, the clock will move forward a distance of 9 hours. At the same date is also switched to 26, and day / night indicator will show moon graphics. When the time is 16:00 in Paris when, in fact, Sydney local time to 1:00 the next day. Once the watch is set in advance, the time zone display will instantly jump simultaneous changes in all directions contents – time, date and day / night display — wearer simply presses the crown / button time in Paris and Sydney switching back and forth between time. This complex process for frequent travelers or out of the selected row and as far away as people need a friend to contact his country is very practical, which they can make contact with people in other time zones, not in the middle of the night to make sure they are noisy wake.
The new 5717 Hora Mundi watch with automatic winding mechanical movement, the movement is based on Calibre with silicon escapement mechanism 777 based on, on this basis can add other additional modules. In the design process has applied for four patents for the table. The first table contains two time zones for this device, the second through the main pointers on-demand time zone, third time zone has inherent mechanical memory wheel for the table; the last one is a mechanical device to drag the pointer to display the calendar .
Seiko modification and cased completion aspect, the present paragraph table diameter of 44 mm and a thickness of 13.55 mm, full follow Breguet tradition. Case by 18K gold or 950 platinum made with 30 meters water resistance. This paragraph has a sapphire case back and cheap replica watch some complex designs such as thin clever circular bezel, coin pattern table side with welded lugs. Display system using the famous Breguet pointer, which can be identified from everywhere "eccentric moon phase tip" pointer around the highly complex gold dial rotation. The periphery of the dial is the word circle with Roman numerals, silver-plated and satin brushed the edge of the use of hand-engraved (rose engine), and rose gold hour markers – or the case of material consistent with use platinum scale. Central dial painted pattern planet using engraved and hand-engraved (rose engine) technology to create a sea of "wave" pattern. Part of a multi-layer paint process by the ocean, and part of the continent were polished. On the day / night indicator, made of lapis lazuli sky adopt containing pyrite, it looks like a small gold plaque to show stars. The sun and the moon is made of gold: gold is made using the sun and the moon are rhodium-plated gold. For the performance of cloud and engraved Breguet name and serial number of the cover are also using silver 18K gold and pure hand-carved.
The instant when the jump zone Breguet through the introduction of this section Classique Hora Mundi, as the first display with synchronous memory date, day / night indicator and mechanical city, once again successfully challenged the quality and innovation.

A Brief History.
Guernsey is a small island, off the coast of France, a member of the Channel Islands. Although a part of the British Isles, Guernsey has its own government, culture and language, as do the other islands, Herm, Sark and Alderney (all part of the Bailiwick of Guernsey) and our big sister to the south, Jersey.
The humans of these islands became part of Britain when their Duke, William of Normandy, decided to nip across the channel and teach those barbaric Saxons some manners. That was in 1066 and William The Conqueror became King of England. Eventually the French took Normandy but the Channel Islanders stayed loyal to the line of their Duke and stayed British. So loyal are they, that the Queen is recognised only as the Duke to this day.
Food, Glorious Food.
Feline residents of these fair islands have a very good life. The human inhabitants are a kind and very friendly bunch. Life is slow and leisurely with strong ties to the land. There is very good hunting to be had in the hedgerows and fields, many species of tasty rodents, rabbits and lots of birds. Many human visitors come for the bird watching. So do the cats of course, but not just to watch!
If you fancy a puffin or a cormorant or something equally challenging, we've got them, but you'll have to be an amazing hunter to catch them. If you like steep cliffs with a very long drop to the sea below, covered with angry, shrieking birds, be my guest. I'll cheer you on from a safe distance.
The nicest thing about island life however is the fish! In the town, St. Peter Port, the fishing boats bring in a wide variety of fish. This is a favourite haunt for many cats. Along the quay side many tasty titbits can be had from the fishermen as they unload their catches (not necessarily with their knowledge of course). In the town itself, the market halls have stalls groaning with freshly caught fish. A careful cat can be very well fed here and even bin raiding around the market at night will get you an excellent meal.
The restaurants here naturally have good fish menus, so those of you who like hanging about at kitchen doors looking appealing will also enjoy a good fish supper. If you prefer to hunt for yourself, the beaches have many rock pools where small fish get stranded as the tide goes out. All you need are a sharp eye and a fast paw.
The islanders grow a great deal of fresh fruit, vegetables and flowers. They don't use a lot of pesticides, preferring the old tried and true methods of growing. Small holdings are very common, and many people have their own greenhouses. Naturally, cats are very welcome, keeping mice, rabbits and birds from the crops. A morning spent hunting in the greenhouse or fields, followed by an afternoon sunning yourself in your favourite spot. What could be nicer? You won't find squeamish humans annoyed by your hunting prowess here! You'll get the praise you deserve and lots of it! They really appreciate a cat around here!
For dairy lovers we have another treat. Guernsey cows produce a very rich, creamy milk, which in turn makes a lovely thick yellow cream. There's nothing like it anywhere else. If you like your milk and you just can't wait to get your whiskers covered in cream, this is the place for you! How about a nice freshly picked crab or lobster, drowning in Guernsey cream?
MMMmmmmm, a heavenly combination!

At least two lawsuits have been filed against LendingTree in response to a data breach that occurred between October 2006 and early 2008.
The breach reportedly was caused by former employees who shared passwords with mortgage lenders, providing access to loan and personal information of customers.
A lawsuit filed in U.S. District Court in New York last Friday alleges that LendingTree, a mortgage loan provider, failed to adequately protect customers and their confidential records, which included names, Social Security numbers and dates of birth. The suit stated, in part, that customers had their privacy rights violated and were exposed to risks of fraud.
A similar lawsuit was filed last week in Charlotte, N.C., where LendingTree is based.
Data breaches are the most common type of criminal activities committed by employees or former employees, said Avishai Wool, co-founder and chief technology officer of AlgoSec, provider of firewall operations and security risk management solutions.
"The problem of stealing information from within a company is as old as money," Wool told SCMagazineUS.com on Wednesday. "With emerging technologies, the theft takes new shapes."
For that reason, he added, it is vital for companies to closely monitor any employee who has access to confidential information.
Because the Lending Tree breach was caused by sharing passwords, Wool recommended that companies review their password policies.
"Companies should reset passwords frequently," he said.
Also, when an employee leaves a company, the password to that account should be changed immediately, especially if the account is otherwise left open for any reason, Wool said.
Most importantly, companies should not rely solely on passwords to protect data, he said. Security-conscious companies also use additional measures, such as token with code numbers that change every few minutes.
LendingTree representatives did not respond to a request for comment.

HAMILTON, Ohio --An eighth grade boy from Hamilton, Ohio, is fighting a school ban over wearing makeup to class.Thirteen-year-old Matt Allsup wears black eye makeup, lipstick and fingernail polish. Matt's mom supports her son's choice. They point out that every student at Matt's school is required to wear a character badge pledging to value uniqueness in others.
But school administrators say Matt's makeup is against dress code and a distraction.
"None of my classmates found it distracting or anything and it's not extreme. I don't see why I can't wear it," said Matt Allsup, wears makeup.
"He's being sexually discriminated against. Nowhere in the rules does it say that males can't wear make-up," said Mindy Ball, Matt's mother.
Matt and his mother plan to hire an attorney to take the issue to court.

Social networks are perhaps the hottest and most promising new channel for online business. Thousands of people are setting up Twitter and Facebook profiles every single day. Nearly every business on the planet has it's sights set on social media marketing, and so should you. Throughout the many tips below, we'll go over some of the best marketing tactics out there and speak about how you can implement them to make your business grow.
Create new blog entries regularly and constantly. This will help your readers to become excited when they read your page. Think of it like a magazine subscription. So, make sure you are consistent to encourage more returning visitors.
Include a re-tweet option on every post to your blog. Having this atop each post allows others to easily share the information through their Twitter accounts. That helps you to reach a larger audience.
To ensure your website is going to work with SMM, add some comments, ratings, and some different ways to search. Adding these powerful SMM tools to your site will let your users get involved with your site and in turn make your site much more active.
Before you get started in the area of social media marketing, come up with a plan. You need to have a realistic view of the time and resources it will take to manage the site. Create a timeline that lays out when you expect to meet certain milestones in your campaign. To succeed, stick as closely as possible to your plan.
Always answer to the messages and comments you receive on social networks. It's easy to just skim over some kind of message or comment, so seek out these comments every time you log in.
Adding sorting ability, comment features, the ability to rate content and more will make your social media website interactive and user friendly. Adding these powerful SMM tools to your site will let your users get involved with your site and in turn make your site much more active.
Study the ads on the social media websites and you will find many images that are eye catching and interesting. The fact that you noticed these ads means that your customers are paying attention to them as well! Use interesting and offbeat images to grab users' attention. Obviously, the chances of a customer browsing your website are higher after looking at your ads, than if they ignore your ads.
If you need help, don't be shy about asking for it! This will help you to tap into the expertise of some of the best designers and consultants in the business. Although they are expensive, they can be well worth the price. Therefore, it is important to include this expense in your budget.
Always make sure you write down what progress you have made. You should establish statistics showing how much activity you generated and how many new followers you got every week. Examine the link between your actions and your statistics. Figure out which decisions had the best results so that you can improve your strategies. If you fail to take note of results, you may never know whether or not social media can work for you.
You should find different ways to interact with customers on a personal, as well as professional, level. For example, respond to other users' notes, statuses, images and updates. However, don't join a private conversation. Your responses should be limited solely to discussions centering on your business, product, or service.
Offering your customers to do surveys about their habits on social media sites is beneficial. You will be wise to create a Twitter and Facebook page if your survey shows that your customers are frequenting these sites an hour or more a day. If your audience isn't really interested in social media sites, you may want to turn your attention to another form of marketing.
Use email marketing along with social media. Include a Facebook or a Twitter button at the bottom of your emails and explain that you will answer your customers' questions personally on these websites. You might also could encourage folks to sign up for your newsletter by including the registration page link.
Use many social media sites when marketing. Although Facebook might be the most effective and popular tool, you should not minimize the marketing magnitude of other lesser sites such as twitter and Myspace. The more people that see you, the more you are likely to benefit from the exposure.
Always respond to questions and comments on your social media pages. Check these sites often to see if there are any concerns you need to address. Set up an email alert to let you know about notifications as they come in. Keep in mind that everyone will be able to see any response that you leave.
Use social media for market research when launching new products or looking for feedback on existing products. Many of your followers and fans will enjoy giving their opinion on these topics and having their voice heard. Their feedback will let you look at your business from the outside through their eyes, seeing the things they want and the things they have yet to find. On top of all this, this feedback is of no cost to your business.
It is crucial that you place links to your Facebook and Twitter pages, that can be easily accessed from your YouTube video. If YouTube users find you on Twitter or Facebook, they will probably share your videos with their friends.
Building a solid company brand is crucial to succeeding in social media marketing. Use your logo as often as possible, such as on your profile page or as your avatar. Use similar colors from one account to the other. This provides consistency, and makes it easier for your followers to trust your communications across many different channels. Staying steady state without a lot of changes is the key, and certainly utilize branding whenever possible.
Give away freebies. Getting something for free is an opportunity that few will want to pass up. Simply decide on the freebie, then go to some of the popular freebie social media profiles and post a link to where customers can get the freebie.
Create a buzz by offering time-sensitive coupons and specials. People will be more likely to order products right away and share this information with their friends. They will likely share these links with their friends and family.
Photo contests are a good way to get the followers you have involved with social media. Have your followers submit photos including your brand for a prize for the most creative. Inevitably, entrants will also share their photos on their networking pages, increasing the visibility of your brand twofold.
Notice when in the day you get the most responses and re-tweets when using Twitter. Take advantage of this knowledge, and try to post more frequently during these times. Consider using a messaging service that will automatically send your tweets out at the precise times you have calculated as being more profitable in terms of responses and re-tweets.
Social media marketing is an increasingly popular and efficient way to attract new interest in your business. Business also benefits when customers share product reviews and other information with their friends and contacts. You must provide incentives, like unique offerings and contests, if you want your subscribers to share your content through their own personal networks.
If you are going to post daily to market your business on social media marketing sites like Facebook, don't do more than three posts each day. Your customers will feel overwhelmed if you're posting constantly, and they'll have trouble finding what they actually came there to read. Post a sale, coupon, upcoming event, or testimonial at most three times, and then use the rest of your time to reply to what your customers have posted on your wall or about your company on their feeds.
Organize contests on Facebook and other sites. Prospective buyers and customers find pleasure in being given a chance to win something. When you run a contest, you can promote your brand and attract users to your page. They're a terrific way to list the benefits of products you'd like to promote, and to encourage consumers to buy from you.
You should offer people incentives when doing social media marketing, but make sure not to be too pushy. Consumers prefer to make a purchase because it is their idea and not yours. Use a sale or another incentive about once every week at a particular time so people know what to expect. Thus, your customer base can get discounts, but will not feel as though they have been bombarded or tricked into something.
Add photos, videos and other visual items to your company's blog posts. Readers do not want constant lines of text to read without something to break up the monotony. You can give viewers something appealing by putting in music, graphics or videos. On the other hand, don't make it that the only thing seen on your page is graphics.
When promoting your business and its products on Facebook, you should only post content that visitors would find compelling, and would want to share with others. Resist the urge to fill the page with content just to have a presence. Share relevant information that you find to be interesting, exciting and factual. Make sure anything you do pass on is really something they are interested in hearing about. Stay away from annoying quizzes or surveys that have no real worth to customers.
You should always be adding new content that your visitors will be interested in. Add videos, stories, pictures or links to appropriate sites that will delight or inform your fans and friends. However, it's important that you maintain a professional image, so do not go overboard on this. Maintain a healthy balance.
You should make people feel comfortable about commenting on your blog posts. This is critical if you don't want customers emailing you or contacting you through any other private channels. You can let readers post comments, but you need to monitor the comment feed. If you feel a comment is inappropriate, you can delete it. Always delete spam advertisements to keep your blog professional and credible.
A great strategy to get your business presence out there is to make some videos for YouTube. A good thing to do is to create a video blog that provides information about new developments and products available from you. You can even put the YouTube videos onto your blog to increase your exposure.
You should always be adding new content that your visitors will be interested in. A few good ways to accomplish this would be to post funny videos, interesting articles, or to link to external content that is interesting. You need to come up with a balance, and never want to give up your professional status.
Social Media
Use your Facebook profile to generate healthy competition. Most people enjoy participating in competitions or contests. Launch a contest on Facebook and you will see interest grow quickly. By marketing it right, you can create a big fan base.
Before selecting a consultant or company to help with social media marketing, make sure they communicate well. By knowing this, you can have more confidence in their willingness to deal with any problems you have. Check their pages of social media and make sure they have enough respect for their clients to answer their pages.
You need to be careful about what kind of info you put on the web in regards to social media marketing. When you use quick social media like Twitter, it's all too easy to slip up and send out an off-the-cuff remark that you will regret later. Grammatical errors and untrue information could be very damaging to your image, causing you to lose customers. And keep a professional manner throughout the whole process.
Social media can be used to share information many may not know about your company. One good way to do this is to find an appropriate venue for community involvement and then post photos and comments about it on your social media website. Write articles about your employees, or post photos of them working or attending events. Be sure to use information that presents your company in the best light.
You should utilize Facebook links on your blog so that visitors can instantly like it without having to stray from your website. Since you are making it easy for them to do, they're more apt to do it. When you make things easier for your consumers, you increase your chances of getting those consumers to come back to your site, or visit your social media page, and read more.
This article covered the finer points of capitalizing on the social media marketing storm that has swept the global market. Use these tips and your own creativity to add your presence to social media websites. Increasing your exposure by reaching out to millions of potential customers will have your sales booming in no time.
Learn how to interact with your followers so that they feel heard. When you have any comments you should address them and ask more things of the customers. Make sure to mine your feedback for notes, and you might start seeing trends in your feedback you can act on.

New ABC MD will 'look at monetisation options'
Michelle Guthrie, the new managing director of the ABC, says it is important for the public broadcaster to look at ways to make money from its content in what are "budget constrained times".
Acknowledging that the ABC already makes money from advertising on its international channels, Ms Guthrie said: "It is important on an overall basis in budget constrained times to look at options around monetisation but it is pretty early to make pronouncements. It's a sense of understanding what we could do."
Ms Guthrie was speaking to ABC News 24 in her first interview since it was confirmed that she would be leaving Google and replacing ABC managing director Mark Scott from May of 2016.
The digital media specialist said it was "way too early" for her to talk about whether the ABC would consider putting any of its content behind a paywall.
Her acknowledgement that the corporation could look at ways to make money from its content comes as the ABC enters triennial funding negotiations with the federal government, which controversially backflipped on an election promise in 2014 by cutting the broadcaster's budget.
The Singapore-based, Sydney-born executive said she was looking forward to "coming home", recalling her first experiences with the ABC as a child watching Benita Collings on Playschool.
She said the ABC had a role as "a true independent public broadcaster" and was "able to deliver fantastic content across multiple platforms: digital, mobile, television and radio".
She will have ultimate responsibility for editorial - as her predecessor does - but added "in terms of how that us supported over time that is something ultimately for the board."
In a statement Communications Minister Mitch Fifield congratulated Ms Guthrie, saying she had "impressive international broadcasting and business background having worked in senior executive roles with News International, Foxtel, Star TV, Providence Equity Partners and Google".
"Ms Guthrie will be the first female managing director in the ABC's history and her appointment to the ABC Board will mean there will be a majority of female members for the first time." said Mr Fifield.
"The Government looks forward to working with Ms Guthrie and the ABC Board to ensure our national broadcaster delivers quality services and programming for all Australians.
"The Government also thanks and acknowledges Mark Scott for his contribution as managing director at the ABC since 2006."
Mr Scott had previously announced that he will conclude his tenure next year.
Scree Producers Australia CEO, Matthew Deaner, also welcomed Ms Guthrie's appointment. "The ABC is a critical partner to Australia's innovative and entrepreneurial screen production businesses. We look forward to working with Michelle to deliver great Australian screen stories to the ABC's audiences," Mr Deaner said.
"On behalf of Screen Producers Australia members, I would also like to thank Mark Scott for his leadership of the broadcaster over such a critical period and who has engaged closely and collaboratively with the screen industry during this time including overseeing the development of terms of trade with the sector."
