It's Everyday!
In your inbox on the tabs in your browser and all over your hand-picked social media platforms.
Media. All kinds of media. The World, national, regional, and local media.
Brought to you in about as many forms as you could imagine, from chatbots, video clips, text messages, newsletters, voice overs, and in ways, you're not even sure how to use yet.
You choose how when what and where you will consume this media. Mobil, non-mobile, Tv, phone, laptop, desktop.
You also choose the medium. (look it up, wink)
It's how you keep fresh and updated on the things important to your life and business.
Is it important that your nephew's soccer team did well against a cross-town rival? It is to him and your sister, and it is today. Need to send a congrats text. The kids don't do email.
How many layoffs have they announced yet again at that huge manufacturing plant? Never a good thing, people losing jobs. Might send an email to your buddy from school and see how he's doing. If he's still employed after today.
That company, your friend, mentioned just received twenty-five million in funding. You did meet someone from there at a networking event. Time to follow up and "touch base." What kind of IA or IoT or MA or AI or whatever, do they do again?
You do notice that a few people still carry a paper around with them. Curious, don't you think?
Quick side:
On a plane back to the Midwest from NYC and the guy sitting next to me, gray, clean, pressed pants, bleach white shirt, highly polished loafers, glasses. Dell laptop with Microsoft Office open on the computer, and it's tethered. He closes the laptop and reaches under the seat in front of him and pulls out a paper. I recognize it as a regional business journal of some kind. He opens it up loudly and wide, taking at least most of the space in the aisle between us and all the space in front of him. He turns this thing around fourteen different ways including sideways to read it. And of course, he gets out a highlighter and extends his hand to adjust the overhead light. Now, remember it's late in the day. I'm tired and trying to chill. But just imagine The Godfather sitting next to you on a flight. Black coat, collar up. Jeans, black boots and yes, black sunglasses. Not one thing says businesses. I call it hiding in plain site, but I digress. He looks my way and nods; I nod back.
He says," just keeping up on a bit of business" with a friendly smile.
I reply with," you can see most all of that all online can't you?"
"Yes, but this way it's in front of me. I like the feel of it in my hands, kind of a habit of mine. Plus there's always a few things in here they don't put online."
"I haven't touched a paper in years."
"I need to keep up always have, what do you do?"
Now, depending on the time of day, the amount of brown liquor I had been exposed to at the networking event earlier in the day, I could have been a bit more frisky.
"Just basic general real estate and you?'
"Have a nice flight."
"You too."
Just a simple, pleasant exchange on a flight in 2017. Nothing different radical or earth-shattering about it.
Except maybe the view of what media is and why you are willing and able to consume so much more today than ever.
Is It Too Much?
Is it oversaturated? Is there too much? Of course, there is. You think so, and so does almost everyone you know.
It's just too much of too much.
Does it ever end? No, it does not.
Yes, your local newspaper is down to nothing, but they have a site online, that if you check you pay far more to access than you ever did the physical paper. Who howls at the lack of journalism, especially local journalism, your local newspaper. They're not willing to pay anyone to do it, but they have no issue charging you more for less. "It's what you want," they tell you.
I have one simple question for them. If you are local and did not know about it, pay for it, or read it, was it news?
Of course, it was. Right? It didn't get in front of your eyes to consume (and pay for) so was it news to you?
Those Eyes Again!
Here you sit reading something on a site that only exists for a few dollars a year based on an internet feed that costs almost nothing. Reading about your business. You choose to take the time, and for that, I am eternally grateful. It is the most valuable thing you have. What did you do before all of this? Nothing? More deals, fewer deals? Are you better informed now than say five or ten years ago? Are you more entertained? Most importantly where are those eyes of yours focused every day?
It's all the media want. Your eyeballs. And they want them focused on only their stuff. What still astounds me is that they have no idea what that stuff should be. No clue whatsoever. They blame it on age and demographics. What if their content just sucks and no one is interested? There's a crazy thought.
Too Much Of A Good Thing?
The definition of what good content is or should be will be debated until the end of time. Is it a good thing that anyone and everyone can create content? Is the theory that the good stuff always gets attention and always will? There are another five thousand words just to start to address that. Obviously what you and I may think is good content might vary a great deal. Are certain types of language appropriate or not? Is language or freedom of speech any right at all? How many countries allow that? Start counting. How about the manipulation of media and the content that's put out? Wow, yeah, there we go. For whatever reason, you have chosen at this moment to use those precious and valuable eyeballs HERE, and in some way shape or form, it's in the context of business and the commercial real estate business along with technology. You have chosen to consume this media and will form your opinion about whether that is too much of a good thing or not.
I have a pretty good idea of what I think about it.
Think of the freedom of thought and ideas.
Think of what scares the hell out of some people. Pure Freedom.
Freedom to let YOU decide what is worth consuming or not.
Freedom to choose without what? Fear. Fear of anything!
There is no filter. There are no layers of bureaucracy. There is no way of stopping this unless what?
Unless YOU decide to stop. You have chosen this is the way you want to consume and use the media.
It has not in recent memory and should not be presented in any other way.
You Have The Power To Control The Media And Always Have.
And where do those precious eyeballs go next?
You decide!
+1 Do you have an opinion about "fake news?" No, not really?
+1+1 Did I make it all the way through that article without an F-Bomb? Outrageous! WTF kind of world do we live in?

My favorite Olympic sport is gymnastics. Part of why I think I love it so much is because I was in fact a gymnast. My home storage unit has the medals and ugly leotards to prove it. Watching the Fierce Five win gold at the London Games gave me flashbacks to grueling two-a-day workouts and weekend team competitions. Gymnastics isn't for the faint of heart, mind or body.
Gymnastics in many ways reminds me of the PR industry. It's both a team and individual sport, requiring an unimaginable amount of strength, determination and commitment. For those that are up to the challenges, the rewards are often "good as gold."
One of my regrets in life was giving up the sport of gymnastics. But thankfully, in many ways PR allows me to continue it. Every day is a new exercise and opportunity to deliver amazing results for our clients.
If only I could still do a double back flip…. Sigh.

Dallas — Voces Intimae's mission statement tells us that they are "dedicated to the revitalization and promotion of art song." They will be celebrating their 10th anniversary next season. However, they drew a surprisingly small crowd for their last program of the season, "Texas Round Up." It's a pity, because this program showcased five composers currently living and working in Texas. This kind of program is, regrettably, a rarity, perhaps because "new music" is a tough sell for many concertgoers, and perhaps because we expect composers to hail from more exotic locales, such as the Isle of Man, or Brooklyn. But the reality is that composers are writing fine music in our own neighborhoods, and perhaps we need to do more to support them.
The April 10 performance at Zion Lutheran Church was a start in that direction.
Three of the five composers on the program currently have academic appointments in Texas, while the other two are independent composers.
The program began, rather oddly, with a reading by Ella Beth Bando, who also supplied chapters from her book after the performance. The rest of the program was a better fit.
David Davies, music faculty at Texas A&M Commerce, started off the musical offerings with his Songs of Supplication, settings of two hymns. These were pretty, listenable songs. Like all five composers, Davies trafficked in tonality. Jennifer Glidden provided a big soprano with somewhat muddy diction in Zion Lutheran's acoustics, while Carrie Davies was a capable collaborative pianist even in the thornier sections of Davies' accompaniment writing.
Paul T. Sánchez, who is on the music faculty at Baylor University, provided the afternoon's most delightful offering. His six songs set to the poetry of Sappho, collectively titled The Journey, were performed by Sánchez himself on piano and his wife Kayleen Sánchez, soprano. These songs were a wedding gift from Mr. Sánchez to his wife. Ms. Sánchez's voice is like a ball of silvery light, her upper register ethereal and flutelike. The phrasing of the songs embraces rather than struggles with the fragmentary nature of Sappho's poetry—none of her poems have survived in their entirety. This represents an ideal fusing of the ancient poems with postmodern fragmentation to create, in the end, a unified and indeed beautiful whole.
Peter Fischer of Texas Tech University provided two pieces using quite different tonalities—the song "On the Edges of Moonlight," an exercise in fifths, and four songs from his song cycle Barcarole. The latter uses percussive effects in the piano that surprisingly, under Jason Smith's capable hands, never overwhelmed the singer, Shannon Talley. Talley sung from memory, an impressive feat considering the complexity of these songs.
William Mac Davis, the only composer on the program who was not present—he had two performances of his work that afternoon, and attended the other—was represented by soprano Lynda Poston-Smith and her husband, pianist Robert Smith. They ably performed Davis's Five Elizabethan Lyrics. These songs were composed in the mid-1980s, and were indeed distinctly different than the newer works on the program. The quirky, surprising intervals and deliberately amelodic writing was a marked contrast to the neoromanticism that featured in many of the other songs on the program.
Gregory Sullivan Isaacs, who (full disclosure) is the Chief Classical Music and Opera Critic for TheaterJones, wrapped up the afternoon's offerings with his Three Dramatic Psalms and "A Simple Song." Soprano Jacqueline Lengfelder performed his songs capably, with her big, vibrato-y voice well suited to the acoustics of Zion Lutheran. Jason Smith again collaborated on piano, producing big dramatics when called upon, but knowing when to get out of the way of the singer. "A Simple Song," in particular, is a tonal, romantic, listenable and pretty song. The musical language is influenced by modernism and postmodernism, inevitably, but has no vestiges of the thorny atonality that some concertgoers consider to be a hallmark of "new music."
Indeed, new music in the 21st century, if the work of these composers is any indication, is making a return to tonalities that are more palatable and less intimidating to listeners than were the "new" sounds of fifty or sixty years ago.
The concert concluded with a surprise: Dallas Symphony Senior Principal Associate Concertmaster Gary Levinson arrived just in time to perform a song by Isaacs for soprano, piano, and violin, "Without Love." Isaacs wrote the song for Levinson and Levinson's wife Baya Kakouberi for their wedding. The performance was conceived as an anniversary gift from Levinson to Kakouberi; unfortunately, she was delayed (ah, our busy modern lives, alas). This song, though, again exemplified the trend toward listenability in contemporary art music. Not many people dream of walking down the aisle to Schoenberg's Pierrot Lunaire, but this is wedding music for a new age.
The idea of bringing together several Texas composers for a concert is an inspired one. I would have loved to have seen more diverse representation, including some women composers—I know you're out there! It's also a shame that the audience was so small. But it's a start.

Effect of Educational Program on Saudi, Women' Knowledge, Attitude Regarding Cervical Cancer and Early Detection by Pap testName : Dr. El-Saida Abdel Mageed El-Rufai
Affliation : Associate Professor
University : National Ribat University

The data obtained from the questionnaire (basic information and knowledge evaluation) were entered into the Statistical Package for Social Sciences, (SPSS) version 16) program using the Independent sample t-test to determine whether there is a significant difference at the level 0.05 in the categories listed in the questionnaire. Descriptive statistics (mean, Standard deviation, percentage) was used to describe the study samples and variables, and knowledge scores before and after the educational intervention at p-value <0.05.
Results: The study results showed poor knowledge regarding pap test 88% of women, in both control and study group in base line survey, were statistical significant improvement of knowledge among the study group, regarding the cervical cancer, Important of screening for detection of cervical cancer, the relation between the Pap test and early detection of cancer. Compare to the control group, there was improvement among the intervention group on practicing Pap test rate from (45% to 70%) after the correction the wrong concept and belief addressed by the study during health educational program. An educational program improves patients' knowledge and attitude regarding cervical screening and its early detection of cervical cancer. The mean knowledge scores improved from 1.73 ± 1.17 to 3.41 ± 1.07 after 3 months which significantly different (P = 0.000 < 0.05).
Discussion: The NHS (National Health Services) Cervical Screening Programmed (2001) excluded women under the age of 25 years justifying the reason that the invasive cancer is extremely rare. Although In 1976-1996, a study was carried out which analyzed 348,419 women in Bristol. The outcome for every 10,000 women screened aged 20-64; 1564 were found to have abnormal cytology; 818 underwent further biopsy. So we were determent to have our respondent, in the age group 25-64.The knowledge deficits regarding if Pap smear is important, the control population think that Pap smear is not important according to the study by and stated that once the disease identified by cytology, (Pap smear) simple therapeutic procedure and continuing surveillance could be used to prevent further progress to invasive cancer.
Conclusion: The result of present study revealed that the health educational program was effective on the Pap test. This study proves that educational program can play an important role in educating women, towards Pap test practice and attitude.

Acupuncture for Infertility
Acupuncture works best when a functional problem is the cause of infertility, specifically when endometriosis, ovulatory problems or hormonal imbalances are the cause for not getting pregnant.
On the other hand, acupuncture has not been proven to be as effective when structural problems, such as an improperly formed epididymis or a blocked fallopian tube, are the cause of infertility.
Acupuncture and Female Infertility
Many women choose acupuncture infertility treatment either on its own or in conjunction with IVF procedures.
Studies have proved the effectiveness of acupuncture for infertility. A 2004 study conducted by the Reproductive Medicine and Fertility Center in Colorado found that 51% of women who underwent both IVF and acupuncture treatment at the same time became pregnant, while only 36% of those who only underwent IVF did. The latter group also had higher rates of miscarriage stillbirth (20%) compared to those women who had received acupuncture (8%).
Acupuncture and Male Infertility
Men can also use acupuncture to treat their fertility problems, including erectile dysfunction or low sperm count.
Also, a 2005 study conducted by Shanghai University in China found that acupuncture also helped treat male infertility. Of the men who participated, those who had acupuncture had an increased percentage of sperm in their semen; their sperm structure and morphology was also healthier than their counterparts who did not undergo acupuncture infertility treatment.
Costs and Other Considerations
A series of acupuncture sessions can cost as little as £450. For this reason, acupuncture is an affordable option for women and men having difficulty trying to get pregnant, especially when compared with other infertility treatment options, such as IVF.
In order to witness the benefits of acupuncture, the individual should undergo treatment once or twice weekly for a period of many months. It is normal for the patient to undergo up to 12 rounds of acupuncture treatment. Each session is roughly one hour long and should include time to discuss the patient's current condition, as well as what the patient can do at home to improve her chances of becoming pregnant.
You should also consult with your health care provider / GP before beginning any infertility acupuncture treatment.
If you wish to discuss your individual needs, please feel free to contact Stephen by email or in person by telephone: 075 0219 490

Bilderberg Meeting to Begin on 666
Posted in Bilderberg, conspiracy, NWO, Posts, Spirituality, tagged 2013, 666, Bilderberg, bilderberger, bohemian grove, elite, hertfordshire, june 6, PTB, the grove, uk, Wade Venden on June 3, 2013| 2 Comments »
Well, ain't that just a kick in the pants?
You gotta give these sleezeballs some credit for at least being predictable. They love their anti-christ number of 666, and employ it whenever they can.
According to the Infowars video posted below, the ultimate elite society – the Bilderbergers – will meet this year starting on June 6, 2013. That's the 6th month, 6th day, and a year that adds up to 6 = 666.
But that's not all. The hotel they are reportedly meeting at is called The Grove, in Hertfordshire, UK. If that doesn't raise any flags, it should.
In ancient times, pagans would always worship their false gods in wooded "groves." And usually, if they were serious in their "faith," they would offer up a blood sacrifice or two during their ceremony. The elite of today are descended from the false-god pagans of antiquity, and they still love to meet in these groves, such as the most famous one, Bohemian Grove, in California.
The Bible is very clear on this practice, and condemns it:
But ye shall destroy their altars, break their images, and cut down their groves: Exodus 34:12-14
But thus shall ye deal with them; ye shall destroy their altars, and break down their images, and cut down their groves, and burn their graven images with fire. Deuteronomy 7:4-6Thou shalt not plant thee a grove of any trees near unto the altar of the Lord thy God, which thou shalt make thee. Deuteronomy 16:20-22

Eid Mubarrak
Happy Bakrid
Living in a muslim country I am enjoying Eid to the fullest. My school has closed for a full 10 days. Yeahhh.
To celebrate Eid we had a few friends over for home, we had Lamb biriyani, the recipe which I will share with you today, mutton chops, beef fried, tuna cutlets, chicken kabab and raita. Quite a spread for a lazy goose like me if I may say so myself. The food was appreciated so here I am sharing the recipe with you.
Truth to be said the biriyani is not an original recipe.
It has been taken and modified from vahrevah.com. The sweet chef Sanjay Thumma, is just adorable, and his recipes fool proof.
The masala for this biriyani is all mine.
Another change I did was adding a potli of spices (a bouquet garni if you will) instead of adding it to the biriyani directly.
Here is the video link.
The ingredients on the vahrevah page
How I made the biriyani
I chopped 6 onions and deep fried it till golden brown. It is important as these fried onions impart colour to the biriyani.
Take a muslin cloth add 1 cinamon stick, 2 green cardamoms, 2 star anise, 2 black cardamoms, 4-5 red chillies, 4 cloves, 2 bay leaves and a few pepper corns tie this up as a small bundle or potli as it is called in hindi.
First boil the water ,add oil, salt and cook rice half cooked.
Next marinate mutton with green chilly, salt, black cumin, chilly powder, chopped coriander and mint leaves, coriander powder, cumin powder, 1 cup fried onion, pepper powder, 1 tsp meat tenderizer, ginger garlic paste, lemon juice, curd and a bit of oil. Keep aside for a minimum of one hour.
Take soaked basmati rice, add to boiling water which has salt, 2-3 bay leaves and 1 stick cinnamon. Cook for 5 minutes and remove half the rice to a colander. After one minute strain the rest of the rice in another colander.
Meanwhile take a heavy bottomed pan add the marinated mutton in the bottom, place the potli in the middle and top it with 5 minutes cooked rice, add mint leaves, coriander leaves, fried onions. Add the 6 minutes cooked rice and top with fried onions, chopped leaves,
Take dough made with atta or maida and line it in the top of your biriyani pan and then close it with a tight fighting lid. This ensures the steam will not escape.
Cook it on high flame for 5 minutes On a simmer cook it for 25 minutes and for another 10 minutes cook it on medium flame.
Open the pan to the most divine smelling biriyani.
If the biriyani is looking a bit wet, have no fear just switch off the flame and leave it open for 5 -10 minutes. It will turn dry, fluffy and absolutely delectable.
The biriyani rice will be perfectly cooked and the mutton will fall off the bone the minute you touch it.
I am no biriyani expert, so if I can make near perfect biriyani so can you.
Note: I repeat this is no original recipe but modified from vahrevah page.

LHC is a leading provider of free-to-use framework agreements used by local authorities, social landlords and other public sector bodies to procure works, products and services for the construction, refurbishment and maintenance of social housing and public buildings.
During the application process 16 flat roof suppliers expressed an interest in becoming an appointed supplier to the LHC. Following the selection process, 5 suppliers were appointed to the framework with Alumasc scoring highest amongst them. Key areas that the LHC were looking for was quality of product, costs effectiveness, reliability, along with evidence of social responsibility, sustainability, compliance with legislation, quality management, equal opportunities and diversity, health and safety and financial stability. Alumasc also had to back this up with case studies covering all geographical regions.
Why should Public Sector Organisations use the LHC Procurement Framework?
During the public sector product selection process, public sector organisations must utilise systems and products that are fully compliant with current Government specifications. When selecting these products for their project it can be a long and time-consuming process for all involved, it would include deep research into products, whether they meet all the compulsory standards and at the same time ensuring a high-quality product that is within their budget is utilised with the highest standards of aftercare and warranties.
Following meticulous review by the LHC, Alumasc ranked as the top manufacturer for price, quality and value for money for Local Authorities, social landlords and other public sector organisations throughout England and Scotland (SPA) and top supplier for price and value for money for Wales (WPA). The use of the framework also provides the client with a highly competitive rate from the supplier. The use of this framework provides key decision makers within the Local Authority during the specification process with a quick way of sourcing a cost-effective, fully compliant flat roof supplier. Only the use of LHC approved suppliers will give public sector bodies this luxury. Annual project rebates are also available to those public sector bodies that register with the LHC as a member.
Richard Wilby, LHC Technical Manager said:
"Congratulations to Alumasc on being the top-ranked flat roofing supplier for England, Wales and Scotland through a rigorous framework tender exercise. The weighting of LHC's Flat Roofing Framework (FR2) encompassed a tough 'Quality' criteria, including an emphasis on 'Social Standing' and 'Price', to which Alumasc completed a very competitive and well thought out tender return. The LHC FR2 framework will run from May 2017, through to April 2021 and LHC is left in no doubt that the framework is serviced by the best companies for supply and install throughout the country".

Rush Limbaugh Beside Himself – He Tried to Warn Conservatives
Posted in Circus Politics, Family, GOP2008, Huckabee, Politics, Society, Terror War, US Economy, tagged GOP 2008, Huckabee, Iowa, Obama, Rush Limbaugh on January 4, 2008| Leave a Comment »
Listening to Rush today… He is beside himself. In short, he has done everything he can to warn conservatives for confusing populism with conservatism. He is horribly disappointed in the voters and what they accomplished in Iowa voting with their hearts and not their heads. Yes, he acknowledges the angst of middle income families even though he doesn't see it himself. If it is really so, then it is not for us to look to a person or a candidate to "fix" us and our problems. We are to tap into the American spirit of self-reliance. If we are looking to the government to save us than we might as well hand over everything else over to the government.
Rush says that he says all these things because he loves us, he loves America, and he is hurt that the people of Iowa have abandoned conservative principles.
He's got a lot to say, and we would all do well to wake up and see what these choices are and will do to our country.
What the Iowa Numbers Really Mean
Posted in GOP2008, Huckabee, Mitt Romney, tagged Iowa, Polls, Romney on November 26, 2007| Leave a Comment »
In case you missed it, Paul Mirengoff at Power Line wrote a very interesting analysis of Governor Romney's positioning in Iowa and New Hampshire entitled "MittSpace." As they say on the internets, read the whole thing:
"I've written that the Republican side of the presidential race can be viewed as consisting of two semi-finals — one between Rudy Giuliani and John McCain and the other between Mitt Romney, Fred Thompson, and/or Mike Huckabee. However, polling data suggests that, at least in Iowa and New Hampshire, Romney may occupy his own space. In other words, it may be that Romney has his own core of solid support, such that gains by other candidates, even Huckabee, don't come at his expense.
"In New Hampshire, the case for this theory seems clear-cut. For many months, Romney's support number (using the Real Clear Politics average as presented in the multi-color state graph) has always been within shouting distance of 30 percent, with a low of 26 percent and a high of 34 percent (he's at 33 percent now). Moreover, since the early summer, when McCain tanked following the immigration reform debacle, gains by McCain have come at Giuliani's expense, and gains by Huckabee have come at Thompson's. Thompson's support has fallen from about 14 percent to about 5, while Huckabee's has increased from practically nil to 7 percent. Meanwhile, McCain and Giuliani are both about where they were in July. But in August, when McCain slipped by about 4 percentage points, Rudy surged by approximately the same amount. So far, then, there appears to be a Thompson-Huckabee race and a Giuliani-McCain race, with Romney standing outside of these two contests (Ron Paul has also made a move; I assume he occupies his own space).
"In Iowa too, Mitt seems to have his own space, though the rest of the dynamic seems more complex. Since early summer, Romney's average number has fluctuated between 25 and 31 percent and has generally been in the 27 or 29 percent range, where it is now. McCain has also been pretty steady since his swoon, with an average number of 7 to 9 percent.
"The big move, of course, has come from Huckabee. In August, his support roughly doubled, from 5 to 10 percent. He surged again beginning in mid October. Since then, his popularity has doubled again and now stands at about 20 percent.
"As in New Hampshire, Huckabee's gain came at Thompson's expense. However, in Iowa it also came at Giuliani's. Indeed, the lines for Fred and Rudy in the RCP graph (green and purple, respectively) are almost identical since the summer.
"But the constant in New Hampshire and Iowa has been Romney's ability to hold his support when other candidates have surged. This could change, of course, as the field concentrates its resources on bringing down Romney.
"Still, it's not difficult to imagine the existence of a sizeable core of voters who are solidly behind Mitt. This group would consist of Republicans who are looking for a combination of administrative experience/aura of competence plus down-the-line conservative positions, and who are not concerned about past positions, speculation over electability or the candidate's religion. Presumably, that cohort exists in most states, not just Iowa and New Hampshire. And at the end of the day, it likely exceeds the 30 percent or so that Romney has been polling in those two states."

Released: 2015
Directed: Pierre Coffin & Kyle Balda
Starring: Pierre Coffin, Sandra Bullock, Jon Hamm, Michael Keaton, Geoffrey Rush.
It is almost impossible to not know what a minion is these days. Since Despicable Me was released in 2010 these little yellow guys have been a big hit. They have spawned their own merchandise, a mini movie series and an almost cult like following. They have a Midas Touch on anything they become related to and naturally, they now have their own big screen adventure.
The film is essentially a prequel to the previous two films and focuses on how the minions evolved and their existence pre Gru. Viewers follow the yellow capsules as they try and find a new evil master to work for and in turn save minion kind from perishing. Three brave (stupid?) individuals, Kevin, Stuart and Bob, head off to America to attend Villian-Con, a kind of evil villian based Comicon in order to find a new leader.
Here the trio are introduced to the world famous and beguiling Scarlet Overkill, the worlds first female super villain voiced by Sandra Bullock. The trio accompany her back to London where they assist her and her husband, Herb (Job Hamm) in a plot to take over the world and steal the Queens crown. The film then follows Kevin, Stuart and Bob as they try to save their species via various madcap adventures.
The film has a strong cast and on paper it should have been a huge success. Unfortunately the film falls short of what has come before and does slightly miss the expected mark. The introduction which highlights the Minions Darwinian evolution is the most entertaining part of the film. Whilst the premise had a lot of promise the film itself is by no means comparable to the Despicable Me films. Standing of the shoulders of giants. Or rather, falling off the shoulders of giants.
Whilst Pierre Coffin gives a talented performance as the minions there are sections where it is purely 'minions' and it can get difficult not to detach from the film as there is no clue as to what is going on. The scripting for all of the characters is not as well executed as it was for both Despicable Me and Despicable Me 2 and there is also a sense of having too much squeezed into a short film. It jumps from scene to scene and plot point to plot point with little development in-between.
The film is enjoyable and children will love it but there isn't the same attention to detail that make the Despicable Me films so universally appealing. It seems to have forgotten the adult audience completely. Take the kids to see it and enjoy it for what it is, but don't expect anything on parallel to Gru-fun.

GOP convinces its base about illusory 'voter fraud' scourge
Can a misleading debate cause widespread public confusion? Of course it can. Take this Gallup report, released yesterday, for example.
The survey … asked Americans about their general concern that ineligible voters would cast votes…. Americans are fairly split on their degree of concern about votes being cast by people who, by law, are not eligible to vote. More than a third view it as a major problem (36%), while nearly as many view it as either a minor problem (32%) or not a problem at all (29%).A majority of Republicans (52%) perceive voter fraud as a major problem, which is reflected in the policy stances of many GOP state governors. By contrast, just 26% of Democrats expect ineligible persons voting to be a major problem this year. Southerners (42%) are more likely than those in other regions to view it as a major problem. The South is the most Republican region in the country, and the only region where some variation of a voter ID law is in effect in every state.
In general, I don't much blame Republican voters for getting this wrong. Instead, I blame GOP leaders who've convinced rank-and-file voters to believe something that isn't true.
Because as a practical matter, Republicans have been told so many times over the years about the scourge of widespread "voter fraud" – by GOP officials and prominent media conservatives – that much of the public is bound to believe that there's a legitimate problem affecting the outcome of elections.
Except, there isn't. Objective evidence makes clear that this "fraud" hardly exists, doesn't affect elections, and remains a made-up problem in search of unnecessary solutions. Republican leaders see electoral value in imposing new voting restrictions that help give the GOP an edge, and to justify these hurdles, they have to manufacture a crisis that's largely imaginary.
The result is another installment in the "reality gap" file.
Remember, rank-and-file Republicans, following cues from their party leaders, generally believe the deficit has grown, illegal immigration has increased, global warming isn't a crisis, crime rates are getting worse, and "voter fraud" is rampant. None of these claims is true – reality points in the exact opposite direction in each case – but GOP voters have been told otherwise by those who benefit politically from the deception.
Of course, there's at least some risk involved, at least in this case: the more Republicans lack confidence in the election system, and fear illusory "fraud," the greater the odds these voters will simply stay home on Election Day, concluding that the system is "rigged."

The wok, known as "chao guo" 炒锅 in Mandarin, is a true time-tested kitchen tool, having held an important position in Chinese kitchens for over a thousand years and continues to do so today.
For centuries, Chinese families used cast-iron woks which were sometimes passed down over several generations. Uncoated carbon steel, a relative newcomer is gaining popularity, however they tend to warp relatively easily compared to cast-iron.
One of the reasons for carbon steel's popularity is due to it offering the same advantages as cast-iron, without the heavy weight of a cast-iron wok. However, this advantage is largely applicable against Western-made cast-iron woks which are usually thick and bulky. In contrast, traditional Chinese-made cast-iron woks are considerably thinner and therefore lighter. As a result, the traditional cast-iron wok is still a popular choice among Chinese families and, due to their durability, the cast-iron woks currently used by some families are inheritances from previous generations. My grandmother's Chinese-made cast-iron wok is made entirely of cast-iron including the handles. After several decades of use, her cast-iron wok is still of great service to the family, well-seasoned and perfectly functional, occupying a central position in the kitchen and used almost every day by her children and grandchildren.
For authentic Chinese cuisine, a good-quality wok is essential for several reasons.
Ability to withstand very high temperatures
A signature technique in Chinese cooking is fast cooking and extremely high temperatures to produce vibrant, crunchy vegetables and firm meat. Extremely high temperatures, ensures that the food does not "sweat", slow-cook, boil or steam. Achieving "wok hei", demands extremely high temperatures.
Woks, particularly the classic, traditional cast-iron woks are well suited to withstand the high heat that Chinese cooking demands which other cooking utensils such as modern non-stick skillets are unable to tolerate.
Ability to retain heat
Certain dishes in Chinese cooking call for fast cooking. Towards this end, the cookware should be able to retain heat because if it loses heat midway, say after the addition of some ingredients, then the food ends up slow cooking instead since the cookware would take time to recover the heat it lost. This results in dull, soggy vegetables and meat which are undesirable in Chinese cooking.
For instance, leafy greens cooked typically Chinese style, such as with oyster sauce and garlic oil calls for leaves that are blanched in boiling water – quickly – and then immediately taken out and dunked in cold water to stop cooking (click here for Culinary Connoisseur's "Chinese style Asian greens with oyster sauce and garlic oil" recipe). This quick cooking process ensures that the leaves retain their vibrant green color and natural crunch. If the temperature of the water drops immediately as the leaves are added (which is a standard characteristic of inferior-quality woks), this results in a slower than acceptable rate of cooking. As a result, the cooked greens lose their color, texture and is no longer "authentic" Chinese cooking.
Even heating
If the wok is of poor craftsmanship, heat will be unevenly distributed, which in turn results in unevenly cooked food – needless to say, this is undesirable in Chinese cuisine or any cuisine for that matter.
Naturally non-stick
Most modern-day non-stick cooking utensils lose their outer non-stick chemical coatings with time. Cast-iron woks on the other hand (which are crafted with natural materials) retain their non-stick properties for generations (with proper maintenance). Being naturally non-stick and not requiring any artificial coatings, also offers other advantages; it is believed that with no flavor adulterations from artificial coatings, the original flavor of the food being cooked is retained, and additionally, being free of artificial coatings makes the wok a healthier cooking tool too.

Chickpea, which joins the DRP and Stomping Ground family in Alexandria, serves up fast casual Mediterranean fare in a convenient location at the corner of Route 1 and Howell Ave. The owners wanted to offer a fresh, quick dining option with as much locally sourced food as possible.
Readers have written in raving about the food. Here is one example:
"Haven't seen any articles or information on chickpea grill on howell ave. Went there to eat the other day and it was very good."
All food is made inhouse each day, from the pita bread to three flavors of hummus and a whole array of toppings and spreads. Customers can build their own bowl, starting with white rice, brown rice, quinoa, housemade pita or fresh garden greens, and can add proteins like lemon grilled chicken, spicy chicken, beef kofta, pulled lamb shank or falafel. Finally, pile on toppings and spreads, including our housemade spicy harissa and everything bagel hummus.
Chickpea offers vegetarian, vegan and glutenfree options and a variety of beer, wine and nonalcoholic beverages. The owners say they are dedicated to becoming a new neighborhood gathering place with a unique and upbeat atmosphere catering to both new and old residents of the Del Ray and Potomac Yard neighborhoods of Alexandria, Virginia.

Another week of joy & fun! I am loving this Making Art that Sells class. I am leaving my comfort zone of vectors + Illustrator and having fun in the process. Here are my plate designs for the latest assignment. (Plate designs for my dream clients: Anthropologie, West Elm and Crate & Barrel.)
The assignment was to be inspired by "odd pods" and seeds. I started with some monoprinting (see post below) and did then a bunch of little pencile and ink drawings and then had a blast playing with them all digitally.

Hello, Readers! Welcome to the book club. I am going to keep it pretty simple and basic, we will read one book per month, and new readers will only be added at the beginning of each month. We will have an open discussion here on my blog at the end of each month, it's not mandatory to attend. If that doesn't work, you can simply just read along and jump into any discussions the following month or whenever you are available to join, no problem.
We will begin in October reading:
Only Love Today: Reminders to Breathe More, Stress Less, and Choose Love
"It is not always possible for me to choose love in the midst of challenging situations, but I can definitely try to soften—soften my voice, my touch, my opinion, and my timetable."
? Rachel Macy Stafford, Only Love Today
This book is so magical and I truly believe everyone needs to read it. Rachel truly has a gift of storytelling, this book will not disappoint you I promise.
Get to know the Author: Rachel Macy Stafford
"I want to make memories, not to-do lists. I want to feel the squeeze of loving arms, not the pressure of over-commitment. I want to get lost in conversation with my favorite people, not consumed in a sea of unimportant emails. I want to be overwhelmed by sunsets that give me hope, not by overloaded agendas that steal my joy. I want the noise of my life to be a mixture of laughter & gratitude, not the intrusive buzz of mobile phones & text messages. I'm letting go of distraction, perfection, & pressure to grasp what really matters." – Rachel's very own words.
So head on over to your nearest library or purchase your very own copy, whatever works best for you. I bought my hard copy at Target. Grab a blank notebook, or journal and something to write with. A few things I do along the way while I am reading is I underline, or circle anything that catches my eye. I also transfer quotes on to a blank journal that I keep nearby to go back and reread when I need a little inspiration.

AJEPC is a non-profit organization comprised essentially by volunteers, very active both in Portugal and China, that envisioned a strategic cooperation developed through the reinforcement of trade between both countries and the creation of investment conditions as well as by cultural cooperation between Portugal and China.
It started off in 2009 as a movement of a group of young entrepreneurs that intended to penetrate the Chinese market and that concluded that together they would be stronger and that by promoting Portugal, they were better able to promote what they had to offer. AJEPC was formally created in July 2012 and, although young, it is already one of the main players and promoters of commercial relations between the two countries counting on the support of institutional entities such as IPIM – Macao Trade and Investment Promotion Institute , CCPIT -China Council for the Promotion of International Trade, The Forum for Economic and Trade Co-operation between China and Portuguese-speaking Countries (Macao), also known as Forum Macao and aicep Portugal Global – Trade & Investment Agency.
AJEPC organizes and promotes events in Mainland China, Macao and Hong Kong organizing delegations of entrepreneurs to explore the Chinese market and in Portugal bringing Chinese delegations to experience Portuguese culture, traditions and quality first-hand as well as introducing them to Europe.

Quite a productive day, today. Once again, I juggled references and sketches for V&A as I give "If He Be..." a rest and work on one of the full page illustrations. I keep tweaking the sketches to play with the balance of light and dark or reveal a shapely ankle, or more. It is good, sometimes, to lay down the graver and think about design. It must be right before I cut the wood and there is no going back.
I also sneaked a few minutes sorting through type - I have to find some way to get my hands dirty if I'm not printing.
The "doves" block is finally on eBay and I look forwards to seeing if anyone is interested. If I get anything at all, it will go towards new wood for future projects.
Finally, I scanned and emailed the sketch for the EW wedding invitation. This is a very exciting project involving corals at night illuminated by moonlight filtering through the water.
And now I can take an evening off as its party time out there in the Fens. Have yourselves a great weekend, faithful readers!

The secret is deceiptively simple...
Simply conceal your bottom thumb into your top fist... This will allow your fists to remain together no matter how hard someone strikes them.
This should only be performed once though, as it largely relies on the element of novelty and surprise... Repeating the trick will most likely end up revealing the secret.

Oh that's impressive...so you cheat :\ you hold your thumb so he can't move you but when he is being honest and doesn't cheat you can move his hand with ease. How about you work out a little and eat right? Most of the ladies out there can hold there own if they apply themselves and don't conform to stereotypes.
how about if someone hits the hand holding your thumb with such impact that it breaks your thumb? Not hard as it only takes about 20lbs of pressure to break your thumb, and the average person can throw a punch with 10 times that much force.
where did that come from? what does this have to do with stereotypes? its just a cool little bar trick, don't take it so seriously
chances are, a women is stronger than there husbands because many American men are incredibly lazy and don't care about their figure
BEST COMMENT EVER. It should even be a featured comment!
I must admit, for a while I was tempted to wholeheartedly agree with your, "best comment ever" statement. In fact, I had even considered using all caps as you had done, so powerfully, I might add. But, I instead came to the realization that pressing the shift key would be too much effort and I wasn't going to push it, nor myself. Last time I tried such a power move I got a nose bleed and had to miss a few meals, which partially deflated the pair-shape/ girlish figure that I've been working on my entire life. Because that's how we roll here in the N Am. Keeping it real (real easy that is). Now, I'm going to go lay down with the fan pointed at me. Good day.
year 1979 in bulgarian movie " The Duplicate"
if you want to out strength a man is to get healthy food work out a lot...and about a few weeks later u would be have more strength than ur man
Lots and lots of protein. Oatmeal and boiled chicken breasts with no salt, also some egg whites.
How 'bout calling this "I cheated"
I think your title is misleading, because you can also "outstrength" a woman this way. Also, you are not really outstrengthing, but "tricking". This is a trick, not a feat of strength. I would hate for someone to stumble upon this thinking they have found a way to be stronger, only to learn that they are creating the potential to anger someone once he realizes he's been tricked. I've been there, and it wasn't pretty. Anyway, I do like the "trick". But if I were to try this, I would say something like, "Hey, would you like to see a neat trick?". This way, you won't anger anyone.
Any trick has got to be sold. Of course tou are right, there is a strong element of misdirection to this, but that's the name of the game...
I guess... I just feel uncomfortable when someone is made to look foolish. Oh well.
o.o coool
Its all fun and games until someone loses a finger lol
LMAO! Good one!
i've seen this somewhere before. cool trick
So it's not really an instructable on how to "outstrength" (note: this isn't an actual word) any man. It's a an instructable on how to trick a dumb person. Cool.

Just starting out…
February 7, 2009
Oh boy, I finally started a blog. I figured it was time. In my 6 months as a full-time web developer I have read quite a bit of other developer's blogs that I thought I should start blogging about the stuff I do. Who knows, maybe I'll end up helping out a fellow code jockey one day, or at the very least providing a little entertainment.
I suppose I'll make this first blurb about myself, seeing as how (hopefully) the majority of people reading this don't know me personally (and you want to know about me right? I mean, I'm not just some slutty piece of blog meat to you am I?). I work full-time as a web developer for an online marketing agency in Cuyahoga Falls, Ohio. I absolutely love what I do. Call me corny, but I truely enjoy programming. I enjoy the process. I enjoy being able to take an idea and bring it to life, especially an idea that I know people are going to use. I've been messing around with programming and web development since my freshman year of high school. I didn't really get serious about it until medial complications forced me to defer my plans of going into the Air Force to community college. At first I didn't know what to do, but the more I got involved with programming and development the more I grew to like it. Eventually, I entered my college's E-Business program, which combined business with classes in technology and development. It was awesome.
It was there I got my first job as a developer. It was an internship in Medina for a company called RPM. It was an awesome experience for me. I went into the job knowing syntax and being familiar with various technologies such as HTML and SQL and server-side programming, but that job was where I learned to bring it all together. I graduated in June 2008 and left RPM that August. I started my job in Cuyahoga Falls and have been there ever since.
I was brought on primarily as a front-end developer, which, to be honest, wasn't really my strongest point at the time. The company I work for deals mostly with online marketing, and has pretty intricate designs on pages. I quickly got pretty handy with a floating div (pretty much all work at my prior job was table-based) and really enjoy what I'm doing. Of course, I also fancy the back-end side of things, and try to get my hands dirty with it whenever I can. Most all our sites are .NET, which I wasn't too familiar with prior to starting. After messing with it for 6 months I am warming up to it more and more.
Well, I'm sure if you made it this far you'll agree that's quite enough of my life story, but I thought it would be rather fitting for a first blog. I do have a lot of technical stuff I intend to write about here. Mostly I want to write about my accomplishments, trials, and overall adventures as a developer. I can't wait to begin sharing what I've learned with the world. Some of the stuff I intend to write about are:
- Coding for HTML emails (its actually more tricky than you'd think)
- jQuery (and why I think it goes great with everything, even ice cream)
- ASP.NET (there will be a few of these, as I'd like to write a little something whenever I learn something significant)
- IE6 (why I, along with the rest of the developer community at large, absolutely despise it)
- ASPDotNetStoreFront (get ready for a rant)
- PHP (I don't do anything with it at work, but it's what I grew up on and I still use it for anything I do on the side)
- CSS (best practices, stuff I've tried, that kind of thing)
- Many many more
I'm going to try to do one of these a week, but as my protruding gut will tell you, I'm not the greatest at beginning something and sticking with it. Well that's about all I have for now. Hopefully you're entertained enough to keep up with me.

Happy New Year to ya! Hopefully your evening and day were spent exactly as you saw fit. As for myself, I partied with some friends at the Ritz and brought in the year surrounded by all of the very people that I will continue to remain connected to in the new decade. Aside from the partying, I also launched a new business and spent most of my new year's day tarrying over things to do, people to get on the phone with and ish like that. But in the midst of my busy state I thought about you and this blog and wanted to share some words for your 2010.
You know I'm a list girl, lol. And in the midst of my planning and to do's I began thinking about all of the lessons I'd learned this year. There are so many, but for the sake of brevity I'll give you my absolute top five. Hopefully you can take something away for yourself as well.
…in no particular order
1. Master the art of doing more with less. I lost a lot this year, only to gain more and greater in the end. This lesson was necessary for me because during those times of loss and shortage I found myself devising new and creative ways to do more with the what I had. And ironically I came up with ways to obtain and build more with what I had, which is crazy to me, lol. Learning to live and enjoy life on the bare minimal is a character builder. A skill builder too, but when you mentally master of the art of doing more with less, you'll have the skill and know how to manage and keep the excess that is destined to come your way. It's all apart of the process.
2. Understand the value in every relationship. I've always been guilty of hanging on to people or connecting with folks that may not necessarily have my well being as a priority in their minds. This year I really learned to understand the value in every relationship and connection in my life. Value would be defined as anything "good" that happens as a result of the connection, even if you are not the direct recipient. When I began to look at the people around me in this light, I shed a lot of dead weight and ended my 2009 with a close group of valuable relationships that I will continue to build and grow in the years ahead. Contrarily speaking, if you cannot see the value in the connection whatsoever, let. it. go.
3. When in doubt, build, build, and build some more. I can't tell you how many times I second-guessed and questioned my path throughout the year. I was on something new and treading unfamiliar territory, so I was unsure of what to except along the way. And I admit I was a little scramble headed trying to figure I all out! Lol. But the one thing that I continued to do was build even when I didn't know much else at the time. I'm not saying build something on shaky ground, I'm saying that when you are in doubt, build on what you know because chances are you know it for a reason! Build and don't stop, the rest will take shape. I am a living witness to that.
4. Don't think big, think broad. I'd like to think of big as anything larger than what it is compared to. Usually taller, maybe wider, right? We really can't pinpoint it we just know its bigger than something else. But, just because something is big doesn't mean that we can see it in its entirety. What we're thinking about may be too far over our heads to wholly understand, or there may be something on the other side of that big that we may not necessarily want to fool with. But when I think of something broad, I think of it as being long range, wide, but at eye level so that you can see a lot more with the basic turn of your head. Can't see that far in the distance? Get some glasses, some knowledge. It just seems smarter to think broad in order to be big. Thinking big is a little less specific, but thinking broad gives us a long-range front, rear and side-to-side view of our lives. It also takes a lot more skill and strategy than thinking big, which is easy. I'll definitely be focusing on the broader picture in 2010.
5. Love. I know its something so simple but I learned a lot about love this year. Not the boo'd up R-Kelly kinda love, but the love that you share with your family and friends and carries a ,"No matter what, now matter how" disclaimer. As in no matter what happens, no matter what you do, that real kind of love will be there when you need it most. If you don't have access to that kind of love and you are not able to offer it yourself, work on that ASAP. Get past your issues, amend the mistakes and have your sorries because in the end its that real kind of the love that will get you through the most challenging times
-black girl.

Did Jesus have Asperger's Syndrome?

Posted: 3 years ago
As the Bible is open to so many interpretations, people can apply any scenario to it, however daft. For instance, I was wondering if it was possible Jesus could have had Asperger's syndrome? I have some knowledge of the condition as my eldest grandson (14) definitely has it, and it is more than likely my husband has it too. The gospel stories could possibly point to some signs in Jesus, which one could attribute to a person with Asperger's. Now I am NOT stating as a fact Jesus had it, just an interesting speculation on my part. But as the Bible was written so long ago, it is highly unlikely we will ever know for sure what the characters featured therein were really like.
