I know it isn't what you want to hear, but I won't lie to you: Whether you self-publish or traditionally publish, you will have to promote your book, and most of that promotion will be done on social media.
I'm used to seeing crushed faces when I announce this at my writing retreats. Hey, look at it this way–It's way better than traveling around the country taking 5 am flights to morning shows in Nowheresville, signing books at Waldenbooks when no one is there, etc. Social media is relatively quick and painless and free. Just don't let it replace your writing time.
I also get wide-eyed expressions when I run through the gamut of social media options: Twitter, Instagram, Pinterest, LinkedIn, Snapchat, Google Circles, etc. But the truth is, you don't have to do all of them. Choose your battles. Here's your guideline:
Facebook is king.
See the chart at the top of the page? Note the age group (though it would be no different in the 18-35 class). Facebook annihilates the competition. It is the best for meaningfully engaging an audience in a way that might lead to readers. Facebook has more people spending more time than any other platform. And it isn't just kids. It's the primary book-buying demographic.
Here are some rules for useful Facebooking:
- Start with your "Friends" account. Start a Fan page when that hits the 5000 limit. (People want to be your friend, not your fan.) On average, Americans have about 300 real social contacts. So the other 4700 will be fans masquerading at friends. Let them. I love my readers and I bet you will too.
- Switch the default setting to "Public" so everyone can see everything you post. Why not?
- Use video. Facebook now delivers more videos than YouTube. Take advantage. People love to see your smiling face. As long as it's saying something of interest.
- Don't talk about your books all the time. The hard-sell gets old. Do it maybe once a week. The rest of the time, chat. Engage in subjects of interest to others. Show your friend/fans what you're really like. You can join up to 6000 fan groups. Is there any reason not to?
- Make Facebook your hub. Use Hootsuite or similar programs to post to Facebook, but send copies everywhere else, so you can effortlessly focus on Facebook but engage the other media.
Hootsuite: www.hootsuite.com

A lone man (De Bankole) is on a mysterious mission, flying into Madrid then travelling to Seville and Alicante. Along the way, he has a series of clandestine meetings with a nervous violinist (Tosar), an enigmatic blonde (Swinton), a naked seductress (de la Huerta), a British guitarist (Hurt), an edgy Mexican (Garcia Bernal), a silent driver (Abbas) and an arrogant American (Murray). But he's all business, never distracted from his assignment and quietly hearing the philosophy that seems to swirl around his every move.

Jo (Diop) lives with her widowed train-driver dad Lionel (Descas) in a Paris flat. Also in the building are Lionel's ex Gabrielle (Dogue) and Noe (Colin), a neighbour Jo has her eye on. Together, they're a sort of family, watching out for each other even as circumstances change around them. When a friend (Toussaint) retires, Lionel becomes terrified of his own old age, which opens him up to potential romance with a local cafe owner (Ado). And besides Noe, Jo is also drawn to a cute shop clerk (Folly).

The Limits of Control, the 11th feature by the New York-born auteur Jim Jarmusch, is another work that is inarguably stamped by its director's idiosyncrasies and, like Volver, there have been several critics who have questioned if its artistic success is not so much a result of it being a Jarmusch film rather than simply a good film. It emits a dark-shade cool, as befits any Jarmusch joint, and it features several of the director's usual performers, including the Ivorian-born actor Isaach De Bankolé in the lead.

Alex Descas and Claire Denis - Alex Descas and Claire Denis Saturday 30th August 2008 at Venice Film Festival Venice, Italy
Vincent Gallo (Buffalo '66) and Tricia Vessey (Town & Country) portray American newlyweds named Shane and June Brown, spending their honeymoon in romantic Paris. A reluctant Shane appears fearful about consummating his marriage with an eager June, causing him to seek refuge in a nearby Parisian medical clinic where he explores his unexplainably weird sexual urges. And there's also this tendency for him to want to devour his spouse during sex. Yes, as in literally eating his loving partner's flesh right down to her human bone. Hence, Shane has to resort to masturbation in order to overcome the desire to chew on his new bride as if she were a juicy pork chop. Bottom line: If Shane doesn't get the help he needs to control his bizarre behavior, he will inevitably end up killing his woman.

Not unlike his cigar-shop patter with Harvey Keitel in "Blue in the Face," the great American filmmaker Jim Jarmusch has now released a feature length collection of café-style conversation. It consists of eleven semi-fictional segments, the first three of which were released as short films in 1986, 1989 and 1993 respectively. In each, various agents of cool meet at cafes for the title beverage and its symbiotic smokes.
The participants can be as well known as Stephen Wright, Roberto Benigni, Tom Waits, Iggy Pop, Cinque and Joie Lee, Steve Buscemi, Steve Coogan, Alfred Molina, Bill Murray, the RZA and the GZA, or, like the gorgeous Renee French, they can be unknown to everyone except Jarmusch and a small cache of insiders. No less a talent than Cate Blanchett appears opposite herself, playing both a movie star and the movie star's lesser-known cousin.
Nothing much holds the eleven segments together, other than their luscious black-and-white photography -- shot by several different cinematographers over the years -- that only emphasizes the eternal coolness of smart people sitting around and talking about nothing. Certain lines of dialogue pop up more than once, and more often than not the talkers don't really connect on either a verbal or spiritual level; most of the conversations are lively disagreements. None of the world's problems gets solved.

Is It Possible to Remove Stretch Marks After a Pregnancy?
At least half of pregnant women get stretch marks. These small skin streaks -- usually in the abdomen -- occur as your stomach grows faster than the skin that surrounds it. The stretch marks start out pink, purple or brown, then fade to silvery white, becoming less noticeable as time goes on. Topical creams haven't proven very effective, but there are a few remedies that show promise if your stretch marks are bothersome.
Video of the Day
A Topical Approach
Genetics play a role in who develops stretch marks, and since the skin expanding rapidly is a cause, you're also more likely to have them if you have multiples or gain much more weight than what's recommended. Most studies have shown that topical creams don't help much. A review of six trials published in 2012 found that the creams were no more effective than a placebo. One recent study, though, in the International Journal of Cosmetic Science found promise in an anti-stretch-mark moisturizer containing hydroxyprolisilane-C, rosehip oil, Centella asiatica triterpenes and vitamin E. Baby Center also recommends prescriptions containing Retin-A and glycolic acid, but Retin-A use is not recommended during pregnancy or while breast-feeding.
Zapping Them Away
More drastic -- as well as expensive and potentially painful -- options include laser treatments. Pulse-dyed laser and fractional nonablative laser treatments cost hundreds of dollars, but might fade the stretch marks or improve their texture, "Oprah" magazine says.

NEW ORLEANS, LA (Sun Belt) – A busy day in the Sun Belt Conference has culminated with the additions of Appalachian State and Georgia Southern as all-sports members and Idaho and New Mexico State as football playing members. All four announcements took place throughout the course of the day on Wednesday.
Both Appalachian State and Georgia Southern bring with them highly successfully football programs and each team will begin the process of transitioning to the Football Bowl Subdivision (FBS) immediately. The 2014 Sun Belt football season will mark the debut of both in the league schedule and standings. Additionally, both the Mountaineers and Eagles will be able to compete for the league championship in football for the 2014 season. Both teams will first be eligible to compete in a spot for a postseason bowl game come the 2015 season.
Idaho and New Mexico State are familiar partners of the Sun Belt Conference, having been football members from the league's inaugural year of football in 2001 through the 2004 season. Both members played an integral part of forming the Sun Belt Conference for football and now add strength to the league. Having reached the 12 team mark, the Sun Belt Conference can now play a football championship game should it choose to do so. Both teams will be immediately eligible to compete for the Sun Belt football championship and also for a spot in postseason bowl games.
There is no question that the Sun Belt Conference is a league on the rise in football. After all, the conference finished with its most non-conference wins in league history in 2012 and also sent a record four teams to bowl games. The conference also finished the 2012 season with its best ever average computer ranking – finishing ahead of Conference USA and the Mountain West.
The league also had two wins over top-25 ranked opponents and Louisiana-Lafayette and Arkansas State won their respective bowl games. All four Sun Belt Conference institutions that went to bowl games in 2012 return for the 2013 season.
The 2012-13 men's basketball season has seen the league put together its best non-conference RPI in four years while sending two teams to the NCAA Men's Basketball Championship. Notably, the Sun Belt's men's and women's basketball teams combined for a record tying seven postseason appearances this season.
In other sports, the league is known for placing multiple teams in the NCAA baseball and softball tournaments year-after-year. Baseball and softball teams from the Sun Belt Conference are usually easy to spot in the national top 25 rankings.
Through it all, Sun Belt student-athletes excel in the classroom as well. A record 1,793 Sun Belt Conference student-athletes earned a GPA over 3.0 for the previous school year and were named to either the SBC Academic Honor Roll or SBC Commissioner's List. The 2011-12 academic year marked the third time in the last four years that the academic honors were doled out to 1,700 or more student-athletes.
The Sun Belt Conference will contest the 2013 football season with eight members – Arkansas State, Georgia State, Louisiana-Lafayette, Louisiana-Monroe, South Alabama, Texas State, Troy and Western Kentucky University. UALR and UT Arlington compete as non-football members.

Everyone has a dirty little secret — maybe not something he'd be ashamed to admit in public but something he doesn't necessarily want to talk about freely. That's definitely the case for WildStar's Exile and Dominion factions, both of which consist of four races… of which we've seen three. Until today.
Revealed today at SDCC are the last two races in the game: the Chua that round out the Dominion and the Mordesh that round out the Exiles. Even at a glance you can see why the last two races are a bit less likely to be discussed by the other races. The Chua don't have that certain sense of decorum the Dominion likes to account itself with, and the Mordesh don't have… well, a pulse.
So let's learn a little more about both of these races between the official reveals on the WildStar website and the introduction trailer just past the break. We've also got some charming details from Carbine Studios about these two dirty little secrets.
So let's step back a bit. The Chua are a race that lived on a forest planet until the Mechari noticed their innate talent for mechanical devices. On the one hand, bringing them into the Dominion was a brilliant idea due to that talent; on the other hand, the Chua are completely incapable of portraying themselves with a demeanor that isn't entirely sociopathic and madcap. As a result, the Dominion as a whole and the Cassians in particular are less than pleased with addressing the Chua directly. The Mechari don't care so long as they serve the goals of the Dominion as a whole, and the Draken get along reasonably well with the Chua — the little ones provide new and entertaining weapons, and the Chua are happy to provide them and let the Draken do as they will.
The Mordesh, meanwhile, suffer from a plague that was originally meant to be the key to immortality. All of the Mordesh live with the Contagion, a disease that killed and turned the population into mindless consuming beasts. Through the Vitalus Serum, the few survivors are able to retain their mental faculties and their free will, but they're still consumed by sorrow and regret at the loss of their once-beautiful home. The humans harbor some vague fears that the Contagion may spread to other races; Granok feel that anyone unable to fight is a liability to the Exiles as a whole; and the Aurin feel a somewhat patronizing sort of sympathy for these afflicted individuals.
Very early in development it was known that both factions should have at least one race that didn't quite fit the mold of the others, partly to drive home the idea that neither group is strictly good or evil. The Mordesh aren't evil, but they're far more willing to go to extremes, likened to the Emo kids of the game. The Chua, meanwhile, aren't on board with the Dominion's image, and they know full well that they're valuable enough to get around any restrictions.
In gameplay terms, anyone worrying about the size of the different races can rest easy knowing that the hitboxes for each race have been normalized. Chua are no easier or harder to hit than any other race. Each of the newly revealed races also has an array of available classes — Mordesh can be Stalkers, Warriors, Spellslingers, and one of the two unrevealed classes, while Chua can be Espers, Spellslingers, and both of the unrevealed classes.
Keep your eyes out for more reveals from the team at Carbine Studios during San Diego Comic Con. Until then, start thinking about which dirty little secret you'd like to have in your corner… if either.

Silly me, I have no idea why I am only posting this now. Swedish Cinnamon Buns should have been one of my first posts because they are EVERYWHERE in Sweden. You find them in bakeries, supermarkets, petrol stations… you name it. There is no escaping 'Kanelbullar'!
I am NOT complaining though. 🙂 When I first got here (in Stockholm) in 2007, I remember I fell into that 'trap' where I could NOT get enough of these Swedish treats. I would have them for breakfast and dinner, and sometimes when we have 'fika' (coffee break) at work, I would have them during those times as well. So, on a good day, I would eat at least three of them. 😀 That lasted for about two months, and then I slowly went back to being 'normal'. 😉
The first time I had them, it tasted (almost) 'exotic' to me. Until that time, I only know cinnamon buns that are topped (or filled) with sticky sugar, sometimes with some nuts. The Swedish cinnamon buns however, you taste (and smell) the spice, more than the sugar in them. The dough itself, contains cardamom, not cinnamon. The actual cinnamon is ONLY in the filling, with a bit of sugar and some butter.
These cinnamon buns go so well with coffee, tea or even wine (well, it's better not to have coffee after dinner, right?! 😉 ). Milk is also a great match for it. (Ha! I knew that! 😀 ).
You can use either all-purpose flour or bread flour in making this recipe. I personally prefer to make it with bread flour, because I feel it makes the end result 'more chewy'. But taste-wise, no difference at all. 🙂
- 8 grams active dry yeast
- 250 ml milk, warm
- 75 grams unsalted butter, room temperature and cut into small cubes
- 67 grams sugar
- 1/2 tsp salt
- 1 tsp cardamom, powdered
- 450 grams bread flour, or all-purpose flour
- 100 grams unsalted butter, room temperature and cut into small cubes
- 67 grams white sugar
- 45 grams brown sugar
- 1 tbsp cinnamon, powdered
- 1 egg, beaten
- 3 tbsp pearl sugar
Mix yeast with warm milk and set aside until ready (it foams up).
In a mixing bowl, combine yeast mixture, sugar, flour, cardamom and salt. Mix on low speed.
Once everything has been combined (and a dough is starting to form), gradually add the cubes of butter and continue mixing to combine.
Turn up the mixer speed into medium and continue mixing until the dough becomes soft and smooth. Mine normally takes 10 to 12 minutes.
Form the dough into a ball and let it rest for 15 minutes.
Combine white sugar, brown sugar and mix. Add the butter and mix thoroughly to combine. There is no need to use a mixer with this, I just use a rubber spatula for mixing.
Flatten the dough into a board by using a rolling pin. Make sure the dough is even in thinness. Spread the filling evenly on top of the flattened dough.
Roll the dough tightly into a log and cut the uneven sides. Cut the log into smaller and equal portions. This recipe yields 16 buns.
Place buns into a baking tray (or you can use muffin papers), cover with a clean kitchen cloth and set aside for 1 to 1 ½ hours (until the dough has become slightly puffy). Remember to give the buns enough space in between since they will expand once cooked.
Preheat the oven to 225 degrees C (430 degrees F).
Brush the buns with the beaten egg and sprinkle some pearl sugar on top.
Cook in the oven for 20 to 25 minutes.

Have I ever mentioned that I hate plastic? Oh I was as hypnotized and mesmerized as the next when Ziplock came out with those incredibly handy multi-sized re-usable disposable bowls with lids. I craved every size and shape. And I admit, I bought them. I had plastic flatware, plastic plates and plastic pitchers. I can be as American as the next person; a follower, a *gasp* waster!
It took me a while to discover that I hate them. The servers at Chili's knew; I always ask for my iced tea in a glass glass because I hate drinking from a plastic mug. Obviously, I'm just not that self aware.
Then I found these glass jugs at Goodwill. I fell in love. Not only with the fact that they're glass and they're heavy but they are pretty.
Who am I kidding; they're easy. For my sweet tea, I throw two Lipton Cold Brew teabags in a pitcher, leave it for 20 minutes to two days (I swear, it doesn't matter!!!!) , remove tea bags, add Splenda and voila….. all done. I brew two, sweeten both, pour one into the pink pitcher (with just enough left over for a glass of tea immediately!) and start it over with fresh brew. That leaves one brewing, one in a jug sweetened and one in the pitcher ready to drink. Sometimes one has some mint leaves added, sometimes lemon…… but always, good southern sweet tea.
I found the little glass "tupperware" in Goodwill too. I made homemade jam Friday night for the freezer; this one caught the jam to be used now.
I'm down to just a few leftover plastic leftover containers….. when they're gone, I won't cry real tears.
I love the permanence of glass; the strength, the clarity and the beauty. It feels more elegant and more real than plastic and everything just tastes better out of glass, colder and fresher.
Maybe that's it in a nutshell. It feels permanent; in a throw away world, it's meant to be kept and loved, cherished and passed down.
Someday, I hope my grandchildren are pouring their sweet tea from these pitchers and sharing stories about how they were some of Nana's very favourite things. And there won't be any dingy, pitted plastic in sight!

Courses are academic classes taught by qualified instructors that are intended to enhance participant's knowledge of a given area or training in a particular discipline. Courses vary broadly in terms of length, size, content and duration.
There are several fields that make up the broader field of computer science. One of these fields is the computational complexity theory, which can be very abstract. Other fields, such as computer graphics, deal more with concrete and hands-on visuals.
The United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, commonly known as the United Kingdom and Britain, is a sovereign state located off the north-western coast of continental Europe.The two most famous (and oldest) universities are Oxford and Cambridge (often referred to as Oxbridge by many Britons) England also has several other world-class institutions, including several in London (notably Imperial College, the London School of Economics, University College London and King's College London, all are part of London University)
England is the largest of the four "home nations" that make up the United Kingdom. It is also the most populous of the four with almost 52 million inhabitants (roughly 84% of the total population of the UK).

England go into the upcoming Ashes series full of confidence with fans and punters backing them strongly to emerge victorious. The bookmakers have made England the very short priced favourites due to strong recent form and also problems in the Australian camp and tipsters at sports betting community OLBG.com have been all over the odds on England for some time.
There is no surprise that England are by far the most tipped outcome in the Ashes series betting in the OLBG Tipping Competition, they have been priced up at just 4/11 to win a 4th Ashes in the last 5 attempts. 'Welshie1', an OLBG member who has a 6 month ROI of 5.6%, has backed England to win the Ashes and he added this confident write up with his tip:
"England look nailed on for the Ashes series here, I write this on the day that David Warner's alleged attack on Joe Root has been made available to the public, and what it highlights is a clear lack of discipline in the Australian squad.
Some people have said this may galvanise the Aussie squad, but let's be honest this is one of the poorest teams they've had for a long time, and I wouldn't be ruling out a 5-0 here, if the weather's good, I'd say it's pretty likely.
England have the bowlers to give Australia serious problems, they showed that in the Champions Trophy, and Swann didn't even play that day.
There's just no way I can see England losing on home soil to this average Australian team, who could be without Michael Clarke for the whole series, his back issues show little sign of easing."
Anyone looking to follow 'Welshie1' in on that suggested bet of 5-0 to England will be given pretty generous odds as at the time of writing you can get 14/1. Should England win the first test as expected then those odds will shorten dramatically.
On the OLBG Cricket forum there has been plenty of discussion about the best bets for the series and with the odds available on an England win fairly restrictive many have turned their attentions to the Top Batsman betting. England are expected to dominate so all the attention is on the England batsmen and whilst several names have been touted 'Smoggyfever' has gone for the 5/1 favourite Alastair Cook.
"I think it was very telling that Alastair Cook (766 runs) was the top run scorer in the Ashes 2 years ago. Jonathan Trott was 321 runs behind that and even Australia's top batsman, Mike Hussey could 'only' muster 570 runs.
Aside from Peter Siddle - 5th in the ICC bowling rankings - Australia look weak when it comes to tearing through a team's lineup. With England having 3 bowlers in the top 10 coupled with Finn at 15th, Cook to me looks a top bet."
11/1 chance Joe Root is the selection of 'Fairfranco' who thinks he's found the value in this market. He reckons there is a chance that Root could open for England and if that's the case then that 11/1 will look pretty good. 'Drobgod' has gone for two players, he's backing Cook and Trott at combined odds of 11/4 and he's pretty confident that between the two of them he'll have a winning bet.

I read my first Durjoy Dutta book this weekend, and I must say I loved it. It surely was an unusual blend – of a love story and a psychological thriller. The Girl of my Dreams is an intricate tale of different shades of human persona. It has madness, mess, love and, manages to keep you on the edge from the first page.
The Book…
The book traces Daman's journey in search of the "Girl of his Dreams". Having met with a massive accident, Daman wakes up from a deep coma, with weird memory flashes. He seems to remember nothing about the accident, except that there was a girl named Shreyasi by his side at the time of the accident. Her hypnotic eyes seem to haunt him, and flashes of her face seem to appear in his dreams. Strangely, soon after, he meets a woman who claims she is the Shreyasi- the girl from his dreams. But is she the real one, whom Daman believes it to be or, is she simply just an obsessive lover and stalker? Unraveling this mystery is now entirely in Daman's hands.
Characters & Plot
Every character has been etched in a fairly decent manner. Well-developed to suit the plot, whether it is the confused Daman, the more composed girl-friend Avni or the stable friend, Sumit. I loved the way Durjoy has brought out the flaws and insecurities that probably every relationship goes through.
Plot has multiple twists and turns. And as you tell yourself that you have probably guessed the outcome, would come yet another turn, which would change the course of the tale. The first half of the book races through, keeping you hooked. I wouldn't say the same about the second half, as it tends to get a bit chaotic. A couple of portions seemed out of context. The narration could have been kept crisper, omitting unnecessary detailing.
The Finale
An average climax with traces of a commercial Bollywood flick, I felt a little let down with the outcome. For the suspense that was built through the course of the book, the ending could have been worked out a little better.
The Girl of My Dreams by Durjoy Dutta is a novel of love, romance, thrills and suspense
A fast-paced metro read !!!

The five older children are enrolled in the Independent studies program at MCS. The family attends Berean Baptist Church where Brooke served as Coordinator of the MOPS program for 12 years.
Brooke's desire is for her athletes to grow not only physically but mentally and spiritually as well. Two of her favorite verses are: 2 Timothy 1:7, "For God has not given us a spirit of timidity but of power, love and discipline." and Psalm 20:7 "Some boast in chariots and some in horses, but we will boast in the name of the Lord our God." You may hear her telling her runners and swimmers, "The faster you go, the sooner you are done!" or "When you feel like you can't do it, that is when you see what God can do." If she is not busy homeschooling her kids, coaching or training for a race you may find her reading in her backyard eating peanut butter by the spoon full!

All recognized socio-political positions in the western world from far left liberal pseudo intellectualism to extremist right wing fanaticism has found just enough "TRUTH" to fuel its invented delusional stance due to one simple principal: FEAR. Collusions on a mass scale fueled by fear manifests itself as what are commonly referred to as the seven deadly sins: Pride the grand daddy of all sins, which could be defined as the excessive belief in one's own abilities, that interferes with the individual's recognition of pure truth: the grace of God. Envy ahhh yes, the desire for others' traits, status, abilities, or situation. Or the destruction thereof, so we don't have to feel inferior which generates fear. Gluttony An inordinate desire to consume more than that which one requires. This is escapism. Fueling distraction so we don't have to feel how full of fear we are. Lust An inordinate craving for the pleasures of the body. A variation of gluttony it provides similar distraction from fear. Anger is manifested in the individual who spurns love and opts instead for fury. Also known as Wrath is in the modern political world the typical result of territorialism, and fascism. We are all wrong so we do our best to make everyone else is just as we are or destroy them in order to not fear them as their very existence disrupts the finely crafted fantasy we have so carefully invented in order to support our delusion. Greed is the unnatural desire for material wealth or gain, ignoring the realm of the spiritual. It is also called Avarice or Covetousness. This is the primary American trait and is fueled by the dangling carrot commonly referred to as the American Dream. Sloth is the avoidance of physical or spiritual work. Being able to do this while enjoying supreme creature comforts, at the expense of others, is the penultimate goal and prize of the American Dream.
The majority of Americans are victims of mass multi-generational hypnosis effectively employed by the group truly in power of the modern world on this planet who use divisions of belief systems, borders, paranoia fear and delusion to keep the developed modern world population working as debt slaves and fighting wars – which actually achieves two functions: One – The goals for the powers that be generating huge profits hence power and, secondly it feeds the need for conquest in the general population evolved from ancient territorial rage.
Mankind has questioned the source of this instigating evil force since the dawn of reason. Is there evil, which exists outside the mind of man? Were we truly created by God in his image? Are there fallen angels now called devils who roam the earth seeking the ruin of souls to prove a point to God because they are scared shit of him: FEAR! Every level of existence whether psychological, intellectual, spiritual biological chemical or of some yet unknown physical nature operates on the same principal. Einstein tried to prove that scientifically, but wasn't allowed to finish for some reason. Maybe because then we wouldn't need faith any longer, as we would all "know" the truth and the game would be over. The endgame doesn't have to be checkmate. There is enough here for everyone, rich fulfilling existence if we had the willingness to make that simple profound decision.

If you lived in the state of Connecticut for any period of time, there is a chance you have funds sitting with the Connecticut State Treasurer waiting for you to claim them.
Where do Unclaimed Funds Come From?
That's a good question. Funds could come from forgotten bank accounts, escrow interest on sold property, long forgotten utility deposits and much more. In today's economy, it's hard to imagine someone 'forgetting' money and leaving it in an account somewhere, but these things do happen.
Claiming Your Unclaimed Funds in Connecticut
All you have to do is click over to the Connecticut State Treasure Unclaimed Property Owners List and insert your last and first name in the appropriate boxes. Or, if you owned property in Connecticut, insert the Property ID and click "Search Properties."
If after searching the properties, your name comes up as a person who has an outstanding claim, claiming the funds is real simple. Insert a check in the box next to the property or properties displaying your name and click, "Claim Properties."
After selecting the appropriate properties, insert your name, address, email and phone number in the appropriate fields and click "Submit Claim."
Providing the Necessary Information
Unlike New York or Texas where you have the option to file your claim online, Connecticut requires you to print out the pre-filled form and mail it with the proper documentation to the State of Connecticut Office of the Treasurer in Hartford, Connecticut (they provide the mailing address when you download the form).
In addition to providing the required documentation, you must have the form signed and notarized. Once you mail (or drop off) your form, it will go through the necessary processing. If all of your documentation is correct, the check for the unclaimed amount will be mailed to you.
Claiming unclaimed funds is free, so if someone tries to get your money by charging a finder's fee, do yourself a favor and go directly to the Office of State Treasurer website directly. Don't use a middle person.

By Karen Brooks
Lapierre is a storied French brand that has been making bicycles since 1946. Last year it debuted an electronically controlled suspension system in Europe, for 2014 that system, called Ei, will be available in the States on a trio of bikes: the Spicy and Zesty 27.5-wheeled trail bikes, and the XR 29er for cross country.
These bikes were so eagerly anticipated that it was tough to get a good look at them, let alone a ride. But I managed to snag one for a run down several trails at Deer Valley and shoot another between demo sessions.
Both the Spicy and Zesty AM (pictured here) were redesigned with input from no less than Nicolas Vouilloz, the enduro racer, former WRC rally car driver and 10-time (yes, 10) UCI downhill world champion.
The biggest change is the move from 26 to 27.5 wheels. The Spicy is the enduro specialist, with 150mm of rear travel and 160mm up front, while the Zesty has 150mm travel all around. (There is also a Zesty Trail version with 120mm of travel on 29-inch wheels.)
So, about all those wires… basically, the EI system activates the platform switch on your rear shock for you. It operates on a combination of sensors that feed into a computer which controls a servo motor mounted to the RockShox Monarch RT3 shock to change between Floodgate compression settings: open, platform, and closed.
There are accelerometers on the fork and in the headset top cap that detect the size of the bumps you're hitting, and a cadence sensor in the crank to tell the system when you're pedaling.
A small display on the handlebar gives some basic cycle-computer functions, and also switches between five sensitivity settings and turns the system on or off.
In general, pedaling and no bumps at the fork means the rear shock is locked out, while combinations of bumps and pedaling cause the system to choose between platform and wide open, depending on what it senses. Reaction time is only 0.1 second.
I got a chance to ride two new Lapierre bikes, a Spicy with the Ei and a Zesty AM without it. Both bikes were a helluva lot of fun, and seemingly tailor-made for Deer Valley's extensive network of lift-serviced trails—lots of turns and some rocks, with loose sections and occasional sand traps of deep powdery soil. (Just like the snow!) Very enduro-like.
So what difference did the Ei system make? The Lapierre folks said, and in my case it was true, that many people neglect to use their platform switches and just leave the shock open or in platform mode. I did this with the non-Ei Zesty and still had fun, even if I worked much harder to climb the short uphills in the thin air.
But the Ei-equipped Spicy was certainly busy as I rode the same set of trails, clicking and whirring as it did its stuff. I can say that it did improve the ride, making the rear end more plush when the trail turned chunky or stiffen up when I hit the fire road climb.
However, it remains to be seen whether this fancy electronic system does as good a job with automatically changing the suspension feel as a mechanical system, such as a dw-link, would. I also wonder how all those wires, and the battery, will fare in a rainy, muddy climate. But of course, that's why we test things.

Due to the amount of information covered the wine and food component, "Flavor Balancing, the UN-pairing of Wine and Food" will be offered as a separate series with a full two hours devoted to the topic. It is recommended that the New Wine Fundamentals is taken as a prerequisite to the Flavor Balancing Webinar.
"I think this was fabulous training. First of all, his new wine fundamentals are exactly in line with the way we feel about how people should get their arms around wine in general. Second, if I had this training beforehand, it would have dramatically (and will) altered the way I worked with some of our new hires. In fact, I intend to adopt his Vinotyping ideas as I taste with people. His (Tim's) approach is iconoclastic and appropriate. He is not asking us to throw out the rules. He is challenging us to examine why those rules exist and align our "rules" to the reality of our customers. If we are successful, we can create a whole new cadre of wine-drinkers who are fearless to drink wine they like, unashamed of why they like the wine, and take every and appropriate advantage of the critical reviews our wines receive."
The New Wine Fundamentals Webinar is a 2 hour "train the trainer" session that includes the Vinotype and sensory insights components of my New Wine Fundamentals program. You can sign up for yourself, or have any employees, associates or friends join as well, by signing up for one of the Webinars (link below). Let me know if you have any questions and love to have you jump on board to help change the thinking of the wine industry! My wine and food principles now replace 'wine and food matching/pairing' as part of the curriculum for the Wine & Spirits Education Trust. Here is a link to a brief video on the program: http://www.timhanni.com/New-Wine-Fundamentals.html
New Wine Fundamentals Webinars: two dates and times to choose from:

2 hour Webinar, $60.00 USD – the "Cause & Effect" of primary wine flavor interactions, wine and food myth busting plus how to incorporate Flavor Balancing in tastings, hospitality events and wine & food dinners. COMPLETION OF NEW WINE FUNDAMENTALS WEBINAR OR SEMINAR IS RECOMMENDED PREREQUISITE
My hope is that I can use the Webinars to train and empower a legion of people dedicated to a wine industry that focuses on the CONSUMER in a new and inviting way. Hope you can join us and please feel free to forward this e-mail to anyone and everyone you think may be interested in joining the mission!

Quilters have mad sewing skills, attention to detail and they love fabric. So why do many of them never sew garments? Is it fit?, inscrutable pattern instructions? Fear of the third dimension? Let's get together and conquer this by making a great dress, tunic or top that fits!
We will measure, make and fit a toile for the Pearl shift dress, and then make a final version with any of variety of neckline, yoke or sleeve details. This is a simple but stylish starter pattern in sizes XS through curvy 3 that is a great jumping off point. It works in chambray, stable linens, lightweight denim or even quilting cotton!
Tuesdays May 9, 23 and 30, 7-9:30 PM.

BOSS BRIAN MCDERMOTT hailed Leeds Rhinos' defence for shutting Castleford Tigers out of yesterday's West Yorkshire derby.
Rhinos are two points clear at the top of First Utility Super League after they won 26-12 at the Jungle and St Helens were beaten by Wigan Warriors.
"I am reasonably happy, I thought it was great actually," McDermott said of his side's seventh win in eight Super League rounds.
"It was a tough game and a contest throughout.
"I don't think we ever got away from Castleford, they were always in touching distance.
"We didn't see the best of Castleford, but I would give our players a lot of credit for that.
"Defensively we did a job there – and we needed to, because they can play.
"They have got some very good individuals in their team who, if you just drop off for a little bit, can be very tough to defend.
"We saw a lesser version of Castleford offensively and you credit our defence for that."
Carl Ablett was hurt in the first half and McDermott revealed: "He has bust the skin on his finger, you can see his bone, but he should be all right on Monday, bizarrely. He hasn't broken the bone, but you bend the finger back that much it splits like a banana skin. It is quite a common injury, he will have a bandage on it and he'll be all right on Monday."
Captain Kevin Sinfield could return, after a three-game lay-off due to a hamstring problem, when Leeds play bottom club Wakefield Trinity Wildcats at Headingley Carnegie on Monday afternoon.
McDermott said he will consider changes "where and when we can". He added: "We've got some injuries, Josh Walters and Robbie Ward have leg injuries and we've got some fellas out on loan, to give them experience.
"We don't have masses of troops waiting in the corridor, but we'll rotate where we can."

Rawls' son sues Gaye's son for alleged dog attack
EmptyThe son of music legend Lou Rawls is suing the son of Motown legend Marvin Gaye, claiming he was attacked by "four large dogs" during a visit to Gaye's Hollywood home in 2005.
The complaint by Lou Rawls Jr. against Marvin Gaye III was filed last week in Los Angeles Superior Court. Rawls claims the dogs "bit, clawed and physically and mentally injured" him, causing him to suffer "loss of blood, tearing of flesh, multiple dog bite wounds, fear of disease" and other injuries, according to court documents. He is seeking unspecified damages.
A phone message left with Rawls' attorney by The Associated Press on Tuesday wasn't immediately returned. A phone number for Gaye couldn't be obtained, and a court spokeswoman said no lawyer had yet been named for him.

What Can Parents Do at Home to Help Their Child Acquire the Expanded Core Curriculum Skills?
|Listen to Phil Hatlen's advice on what parents can do at home to help their child acquire the expanded core curriculum skills.
My name is Phil Hatlen. I'm currently the superintendent of the Texas School for the Blind and Visually Impaired in Austin, Texas.
How can parents and other family members support their child's acquisition of the expanded core curriculum? What would you like to ask families to do at home?
Parents must be thoroughly familiar with the expanded core curriculum. You must assist the teacher in assessing your child's needs. You must make certain that the expanded core curriculum goals are included in your child's IEP, and you need to know what the teacher is teaching and reinforce those skills at home.

DescriptionLock 'n' Chase is an arcade action game similar to Pac-Man. You play a thief who is trapped in a maze like vault. To get out, you need to collect all of the gold dots located in the maze. Your task won't be easy, since there are four police officers in the vault who are constantly trying to catch you! Located throughout the maze are numerous doors. As you run through the maze, you have the ability to temporarily close a door in an attempt to block the police. You can only close two doors at a time, and any closed doors automatically open again after a short amount of time. When all of the gold in the maze has been collected, the exit to the vault will open and you can escape and move on to the next, more difficult vault. Occasionally a bonus item will appear in the maze, such as a cash bag, crown, or briefcase, which can be collected to earn even more points.

Version differencesLock 'n' Chase is actually based on an old arcade game starring the "gentleman thief" Lupin III. Lupin III is a famous manga star and the creation of manga-ka Monkey Punch, and his background is mentioned as being the grandson of world-renowned thief Arsene Lupin!
And that's also why the game was released in the U.S. with all Lupin refs removed... Maurice LeBlanc, the author who wrote the original Lupin novels, of course copyrighted his work. But in Japan, the copyright isn't enforced as much, so that's why Lupin III exists. But in the U.S., the copyright was enforced, so Lupin's personality was erased in the U.S. version of this game, both in the arcade and home versions.
Version differences: IntellivisionThe Intellivision Lock 'n' Chase had two releases. The original 6K version had spottier control and was missing Lupin's "death" animation (he collapsed into his hat and cloak in the arcade version). A later 8K version fixed the control and added the animation.
There's no way on the outside to tell which version is which. The only way to find out is to play the game and see what happens when Lupin gets caught by a cop.
