FOREWORD: This will be the first of a Bike Tip series in which I share knowledge I've learned about how to save money on a bike tour.
On a bike tour little expenses add up. In my experience, long-distance cyclists in South America rarely have bottomless bank accounts. Many jumped into their trip because they sensed the timing was right, that it may be now or never, not because they have the financial security most people assume necessary for trips of continental proportions. These cyclists understand that life is short, that money will not pave the road to happiness or heaven but can, in even limited quantities, make seeing the world entirely feasible. These cyclists trade a certain financial stability to follow their dreams, expand their minds, and live an adventure. Part of that adventure is making the most of the resources at their disposal in order to continue onward.
Long-distance cyclists are excellent money managers, though you'll be hard-pressed to find a financial adviser that would recommend quitting your job, piecing together a touring bike, and pedaling into the unknown. The great majority of long-distance cyclists—the young ones with minor savings who weren't willing to bet their health on someday future trips—must constantly find ways to lessen expenses, such as water, in order to realize their travel dreams.
Until I see "Cyclist Wanted to Travel South America: Competitive Wages" in the help wanted section, I'm in the same young cyclist category. Being thrifty and wise with the money I've saved is the name of the game.
Drink water, yes. Just don't drink any water. In most of South America, including in major cities, it can be unwise to drink from the tap. You may get away with a sip in Caracas, a compromised whisky on the rocks in Bogota, even a full bottle chugged in desperate thirst from that unsightly truck stop restroom outside Quito, but you will eventually regret your risky ways in such heaving spasms of guttural agony that you will learn to be more selective about your H2o sources.
1. Harness the sun. This is not Sunny D's new ad campaign. It's advanced technology in your handlebar bag. I highly recommend the SteriPEN Freedom Water Purifier. It's a convenient, USB-rechargeable water purifier that effectively kills with UV light all those nasty microbes, bacteria, and viruses that would make a long day in the saddle feel like Chinese torture. Forty-five seconds stirring in a wide-mouth bottle—I carry a Nalgene specifically for this purpose—creates safe, drinkable water.
PROS: Device pays for itself many times over; reduces plastic waste; scare/impress rural kids with your magic wand.
CONS: Need to buy batteries; impossible to repair/replace device in South America.
2. Buy chocolate at a pharmacy. Or gum. Or actual medicine if you need it. Why? Because all pharmacies in South America have community jugs of purified water so their customers can swallow the multitude of pills they love to prescribe. Since my above SteriPEN inexplicably stopped working after hundreds of zapped Nalgenes, I now use the Trick-a-Pharmacist technique as my principle refill source. I'll make a minimum purchase (US $.10), then proceed to fill up my two Naglene water bottles. Is this ethically correct? You decide. Thirst has no moral code. All in all, pharmacists find this gypsy trick amusing and usually want me to stick around to talk bike, which of course I do, rehydrating all the while.
PROS: Practically free water; get to know pharmacists!
CONS: Ethical?
3. Never buy bottled water. I don't. In addition to my recently purchased 1.5 liter sexy silver Thermos I use for hot morning and evening tea, I already have three other water bottles. Buying another disposable bottle that I'll toss within hours (or seconds) seems wrong, unnecessary.
Environmental issues aside, I also prefer to buy locally. Bottled water in South America is monopolized almost entirely by the Coca Cola Company. Sleep well, they're doing just fine financially. Instead, pay local restaurants to refill your existing bottles with the flavored-water or juice that typically accompanies their lunch time set meals. Don't worry: it's boiled. And delicious. This option ALWAYS costs less than a bottle of water the same size and your money goes to the people who need it most.
PROS: Less plastic waste; money stays local; flavored-water or juice for less than water!
CONS: Coca Cola sends an assassin to silence me; none.

TORQUE: Rehearsal Photographs 2
Last night Mike emailed me the photographs he had taken on Monday. I was on the train when I got the email, so proceeded to spend my journey fighting against poor signal and an old phone to look at as many as I could. Eventually, I admitted defeat and - resentfully - learnt patience.
They were worth the wait.
Here are a couple of my favourites:

I love the mixture of candid with more posed feeling shots. Very pleased with them! What do you lot think?

Silver & Turquoise: for Every Hippie & Gypsy
I truly believe Burl Ives got it wrong when He sang "Silver and Gold"... It should've been more like Silver and Turquoise... Because, duh? I not only wear and collect turquoise religiously, but I would also like to one day buy and sell turquoise too! That's why I thought I'd highlight some of my favorite online dealers who I happen to have bought an excess amount of accessories from and talk about just how wonderful they are. If you weren't a fan of this stone now, your about to be. You're welcome.
Turquoise in the Native American community is very much a spiritual and valued stone within individual tribes. Legend has it that Native American's danced and rejoiced when the rain came thus making their tears of joy mix with the mother earth stone, creating what they call the "Fallen Sky Stone", aka Turquoise. Buuut, really what happens is it's formed by a chemical reaction which occurs when water containing specific minerals such as copper and aluminum leak through a rock. Thanks Jesus! You're super cool. To make it simple, turquoise has been around for quite a while and doesn't appear to be going on a hiatus anytime soon. Turquoise REALLY started getting placed in jewelry after the Navajo, Hopi, Zuni, and other Pueblo artisans realized how in demand the stone was. In many Native American tribes, negative tendencies after settlers came became more frequent. Thus making alcohol addiction and poverty in the forefront of many old communities. With very little left (Thanks Americans!) , they sold all the value they had, that being their mothers turquoise! In Native American communities this is actually looked down upon, because selling your families belongings was an act of shame. This is what people call "dead pawn". If you speak to the majority of turquoise consumers and sellers today, they'll tell you to purchase directly from current makers of the jewelry. You can find gold mines of Turquoise anywhere in the SouthWest territory. Be careful though, because once you start, you literally can't STOP. These online dealers are what started my addiction. I am simply a turquoise glutton.
Faye Raven Collection
First, I would just like to say a major thank you to the lovely people behind this beautiful jewelry. I contacted them and they were so willing and kind to be apart of my blog post today. Thank you again lovelies ! I follow quite a bit of Turquoise dealers on Instagram and one day I came across this new account with breathtakingly unique pieces. I must say, go comp some while you can, because the minute they start getting more followers, you won't be able to put that paypal email in the comment section fast enough ! Lol. I received my package very quickly, and when opening the actual package itself, I was greeted with beautiful gold wrapping paper and a thoughtful note. Not everyone appreciates the little things, or even recognizes them - But, when I saw that, it made me A. Want to brag on them more for their overall professionalism, and B. Go back immediately and buy more! As a consumer, I was impressed to say the least. Here is a current picture of their collection right now.
Trade Wind Vintage
Just like I mentioned previously, this turquoise dealer is absolutely lovely ! I love how all jewelry was not created equal- meaning not one piece is ever the same. I like how every item is unique in it's own way! That's the great thing about Trade Wind Vintage ! She just has beautiful pieces, including black onyx, coral and obviously loads of turquoise. Everything is reasonably priced and vintage. The one ring I purchased from her was literally form the 1940's. I think that's amazing ! Vintage that old I don't frequently see for the prices she marks them for. With that said, what are you still doing? Go check out her stuff now and BUY all da goodies!!!!
The reason I love turquoise is cause it makes me feel so put together. I could be feeling and looking like crap, but the minute I slip my turquoise on, I instantly feel a little bit more classy and a little less "Just rolled out of bed, I'm sorry" looking. Turquoise doesn't only apply to rings obviously, there is a plentiful abundance of bolo ties, belts, bracelets and arm cuffs out there for the taking if you're not into rings or simply just want more of it all (I speak for myself). I strongly advice giving turquoise a go at least once and see where it takes ya (: If you're interested in either of these awesome turquoise seller's I talked about today, here is where you can purchase the jewelry :

Go Follow em, Go love em, and tell em Carmen sent ya !
As always, thank you for reading.

Stewardship is protecting and expanding all the resources God has given you. Your resources are: gifts, talents, income, savings, wisdom, and possessions. God has given us all the resources we need to prosper and live in abundance. We must use the resources He has entrusted us with wisely and effectively. Remember everything you see and own belongs to God!
When I began my financial journey, I was in a very dark place spiritually and financially. The income I was receiving was not outweighing my bills. I was unable to keep up with all my "extra expenses" (credit cards, eating out, loans, bad debt). There were days I was so stressed out that I could not even go to work. I would talk about my finances to the friends around me and of course we all had the same story. I was working two jobs and I knew I had to seek God for assistance to get myself out of debt.
One day I asked God to truly direct my path and get me spiritually and financially healthy again. Let me tell you…. God heard my cry and believed I was ready to live in abundance. I quickly noticed it wasn't the income, it was my spiritual brokenness. So, because I'm a church girl, I grew up in church my whole life, the one thing I knew I had to do was fast, pray, and trust God's instructions!
I started to claim God's Word over my finances and my family. I started to ask God for wisdom. I also asked God to remove anything that was not like Him. It was kind of hard at first because anything that was not a part of my purpose and plan included losing some of my dear closest friends.
When you are fasting, and praying over your family and finances you should grab a partner. If you are married grab your husband. If you are not married grab your children. Just grab someone who believes in your breakthrough.
Clutch your hands together consistently at the same time for 21 days and plead the blood of Jesus over your family and finances.
At this point in time don't worry about if your kids think you are crazy or if your husband is not on board. Give all your worries and concerns to God, He will take care of the rest.
Your prayers are your dialogue with God. Don't worry about if you are saying the right words. Just start having a casual conversation with God. Trust me He will understand your "foreign language". He is just waiting for you to communicate with Him. Overtime you'll notice that it's not about how long you pray but how often you pray. Seek a deeper relationship with God and watch the financial breakthrough. Your mind will shift and you will make better financial decisions. Your credit scores will increase and the chain will be broken!
You just need to stay consistent!
I have shared this journey with more than a few people and each time I have heard some awesome stories. As you go through this 21 days of claiming God's Word over your finances and family take notes.
When you are reading God's Word you are communicating with God. God will speak! He will give you direction!
I encourage you set aside time daily to read God's Word. Claim victory over your life unwaveringly. Build the habit of seeking God daily so that you can make financially sound decisions. Regardless of what we go through in life, life will happen, so, we need God each day, and involved in every decision we make. You will also notice that the more you include God in your daily life, the more you and your family will prosper.
It wasn't until I built that habit of including God in my daily life that I could truly see the financial breakthroughs for me and my family. When you find, yourself falling off or not actually setting aside time to read at least one scripture a day, just stop and say a simple prayer, ask God for obedience and the strength to continuously seek Him.
I am so excited for you and your family's financial breakthrough!

Kienle Day In The Life
Last month I did a "Day In The Life Session" with the wonderful Kienle family. For those of you who aren't familiar with "Day In The Life" sessions, I follow a family for a day and document their daily routine: waking up, eating meals, playing with toys, etc. Childhood is fleeting, and my goal during these sessions is to photograph and memorialize this precious time of life before it's gone.
The Kienle family whole-heartedly embraced the concept behind Day In The Life sessions, and allowed me complete access to their entire day. As a result, I captured the most beautiful images of their daughter Olivia cuddling with mom Kelly and dad Alex in the wee hours of the morning, of baby Vivian practicing tummy time with Kelly, of shopping for toys, sneaking treats to the family dog, giggles at bath time, and sweet bedtime kisses.
I put together a video with some of my favorite images. I hope, after you watch the video, that you will see that even though you may feel that your day to day life is boring, in reality it's actually filled with really beautiful moments.

Edgar Hoover made the case for a threat assessment of east coast German social clubs known as bunds and was granted authorization to conduct covert surveillance and infiltrate the clubs. Stewart conducted extensive research and traveled to several locations to examine archived material detailing the arrest, transportation, and internment of German nationals and American citizens of German descent in the early stages of the war. Prisoners were held in numerous camps located across the United States, including Fort Lincoln, which is located just south of Bismarck, North Dakota and is where a portion of the novel takes place.

Last month was very very very hard! We had two races of Superstars Championship, the second Round of International Series in Imola and the first Round of Italian Championship in Vallelunga. In the mean time i was involved in a new adventure with a team running a Formula Abarth car in Italian Championship. Then, i was also in Nurburgring for the first race of a small trophy with Formula Gloria cars, small race cars with a bike engine: quite simple but quite fast as well. A very busy month, so no time at all to write here. But after such a long time i'm back!
It's strange: when you are very busy and you work a lot, also during week ends, you start to lose your sense of time. Sometimes, during the last days i don't remember exactly which day of the week it actually is! Motorsport is dangerous, that's true! And that's true for mental sanity as well!
Let's star from the beginning. On 18th of April i was in Imola for International Superstar Series second round. Week end started with rainy conditions and Johnny had to come there by car from England because of Icelandic Volcano eruption and all the the ash it put in the atmosphere. All flights around Europe were stopped for some days. So he had to drive 15 hours from England to Imola and then the same to come back home! Not so bad!
By the way, the week end started very well. We had the third best time in practice with wet track. Only four wheel drive Audi Cars were better than us! But luck was not always with us during the week end..During second free practice session, we had a strange problem on the car and Johnny had to stop after just one lap because of some fire coming from the bottom of the chassis. Probably some oil loss. Then we had a tire problem in qualifying, which was still on wet track. We had the fourth best lap till all the drivers were with old tires yet. But at the end, they all put new tires while we could not, because of the problem i said. Result: 9th position on the starting grid.
First Race: a nice sun on Imola, Johnny had never driven the car on this track with dry condition before. Anyway, he started 9th but he was able to end the race in second position! And only a problem on our prop shaft, which became worse during the last laps, saved Biagi to be overtaken as well and stopped Johnny to catch his firts victory in this championship. Not so bad! The race was really funny and although the car was still not perfect Johnny was able to overtake a lot of his contenders, having also the second faster race lap.
But after that luck went away again. The problem on the prop shaft was not easy to solve and the car could not start race 2. He should be starting in 7th position and looking to what he was able to do in Race 1 starting 9th…
During the period from Imola Race to Vallelunga one we had a very hard work at the workshop, solving a lot of small problems on the car. In Vallelunga Johnny didn't race, because the team had an agreement to make other drivers to have italian champioship races. So we met Matteo Malucelli, a young 26 years old driver with a very good experience on GT cars. We had a test with him in Imola, some days before the race. The track was wet, but he showed us he has his clear ideas of the thing and he could drive the car very fast. And so he did in Vallelunga! always in the first positions during free practices, 4th time in Qualifyng.
At the start of Race 1, he kept third position (the driver who had to start third started from pit lane). After a few laps he overtook one of the BMW drivers and the he ended second. Not so bad to be his first race with this car!
Because of grid inversion he started 7th in Race 2. But he started immediately to push hard and began to overtake the cars in front of him, one by one. His overtake on the Blu Mercedes driven by Ferrare was really something unbelievable! At one lap from the end he was second, more than one second far from the car in front of him, Gabellini BMW. But then Gabellini had a mistake: after two corners Matteo overtook him and won the race! He had an amazing race, with lots of fantastic overtakings! Amazing! It was a really wonderful race! A real show! And it was our first victory in 2010 and he won his second race ever with this kind of cars! Moreover our best lap was nearly exactly the same than Morbidelli's one, who then had a problem on his car and had to stop. This means we had the fastest car on track!
Now we are preparing everthing to go to Portimao for the next race, on the 23rd of May, again with Johnny on the car! Let's see how it will go!

Good morning! On Wednesday night, Russell Westbrook helped the Oklahoma City Thunder beat the Orlando Magic, 114-106, in overtime with his 38th triple-double of the season. Westbrook scored 57 points, and he added 13 rebounds and 11 assists. It was Westbrook's second 50-point triple-double of the season, and the 57 points were an NBA record for the most points scored in a triple-double.
Here are the three plays everybody will be talking about:
The comeback dunk. The Thunder trailed the Magic by 21 points with about five minutes to go in the third quarter. It was about two minutes later when one could get a sense that the comeback was on. After having already cut the lead to 15, Westbrook took off like the Roadrunner and threw down one of his one-man-army dunks. Game on.
The tying 3-pointer. With under 14 seconds to go in regulation, the Thunder still trailed by two. They caught a break when Nikola Vucevic missed the second of two free throws, keeping it a one-possession game. Westbrook brought the ball up the court, and the entire arena knew he was going to take a three. The Magic knew this also and double-teamed him almost as soon as he crossed midcourt. It didn't matter. Swish.
Look at where Westbrook is on the court and where the defenders are. Few would have the courage to take this shot. Even fewer would make it.
The M-V-P chant. How impressed were the Orlando fans with Westbrook's performance? With the game in overtime and the home team still very much in it, Westbrook drove to the lane, executed a gorgeous spin move, made the basket, and drew a foul from Elfrid Payton. That's when the crowd — a road crowd for Westbrook — started chanting "M-V-P! M-V-P!" They might be right.

Last year, I made an album for Discus called Story Tellers. It's a 6 piece ensemble that features such exciting musicians – Martin Archer, Anton Hunter, Mick Somerset Ward, Corey Mwamba and Pete Fairclough. We worked from graphic scores written by Martin, each of us given a 'character' and space to play completely solo.
This week, we got a great, insightful review by Duncan Heining on All About Jazz. 4 1/2 out of 5 stars! I've added the review below but do head over to AAJ and check it the enormous treasure trove of jazz writing.

The Story of the Curse
In 1945, Billy Goat Tavern owner William Sianis was kicked out of Wrigley Field during game 4 of the World Series. This is allegedly due to the odor of his pet goat, named Murphy, bothering other fans. Outraged, Sianis declared a curse on the Chicago Cubs. It is not known specifically what the curse entailed, but the Cubs lost the 1945 series and did not make it back to the world series again until 2016.
The Cubs simply making it to the series marked the end of a 71-year drought. Additionally, given that the Cub's only other world series wins came in 1907 and 1908, their win in 2016 marked the end of a 108-year World Series win drought. It seems safe to say, however, that after the Cubs defeated the American League champion Cleveland Indians 8–7 in the 10th inning of game 7 to win the 2016 World Series, that the curse was ended.
Each piece in these sets was carefully chosen to create the ultimate commemorative gift for a Cubs fan, and each piece was meticulously crafted to last forever. So, even if it takes another 108 years for the Cubs to win, each component will be relevant and functional for future generations to enjoy!
The Pen
Vortic has collaborated with Hooligan Pen Company's Tim Cullen to bring you an excellent product with a rich story. The wooden body of each pen is made of wood from 1930's Wrigley Field seat backs. While Wrigley remains very original, many renovations have been made over the years, so supplies from the early 1900's stadium are continually disappearing. These are the only 10 pens of their kind that will exist in the world, so don't miss your chance to reserve your own before supplies run out.
Tim was able to get his hands on a limited amount of small, rectangular, blocks of wood cut from seat backs in 1930's era Wrigley for use in a pen. To prepare the wood, many layers of green paint were sanded off and the wood was dried in an oven. After this, the wood was moved to a vacuum chamber where it gets imbued with a resin to stabilize the wood and make it suitable for fine workmanship. Please be aware that although great care is taken in crafting this wood, it does have some character and imperfections from being exposed to the elements for many years.
The blue acrylic of the cap and barrel are custom poured and colored with a "Cubs Blue," and each piece has an interesting texture when turned and finished. As a result, you won't find this coloration anywhere else and every pen's acrylic will be slightly different. Each round component of the pen is hand turned and threaded on a traditional manual lathe. The threads are extremely fine because they are all manually cut with a single point tool (Tim actually uses a vintage South Bend 10k lathe to do most of the work). A multi-start thread design is used to make replacing and removing the cap quicker and easier. The wood is finely sanded and waxed, and the clip is hand filed to achieve a custom shape just for this pen. The nib unit is a titanium Bock #6 size with a piston style ink converter (a siphon for sucking up ink).
Finally, Vortic used their own machine to engrave the pen in several places; "World Champions 2016" on the cap ring, a Vortic 'V' logo on the top of the cap, and "xx/10" engraved on the butt of the wood. What you are left with is not only a fine piece of craftsmanship with a great story but a functional, well-balanced, high-end writing instrument that is guaranteed to bring joy and personality to your signature and handwritten notes.

The Brihanmumbai Municipal Corporation (BMC) Wednesday informed the Bombay High Court that the structural repairs of Lalbaug flyover would be completed by February 2019. A Division Bench headed by Justice A S Oka was hearing a public interest litigation seeking direction to the BMC to carry out repair work on the flyover only after carrying out a structural audit report for the flyover.
The BMC submitted a chart specifying the programme for the completion of structural repairs along the flyover. The resurfacing work is expected to start in October and will be completed by February 2018. Meanwhile, the appointment of an agency for review of structural design, preparation of retrofitting scheme and estimate for other works will be completed by end of this month.
The petitioner's advocate Sumedha Rao had earlier sought action against the contractor as the structural defects had cropped up barely five years after construction. The court further directed the civic body to submit an affidavit concerning fixing of the the default liability of the contractor of the flyover as its earlier directions in this regard has not been complied with.

Too often our players aren't patient with anything other than making huge improvements and doing them right now. And let's be honest, how often do those bounds in skill really happen? Discover the role that a "Little Bit" can play in your team's improvement. When I'm working with players on any skill or skill level I'm amazed at how quickly they dismiss that they've made even a "little bit" of an improvement. I strongly believe that players want to get better but they want it now! Players live in a world of now getting almost anything they want simply by wanting it, and getting it fast. So of course players expect to master a pitch in one day or hit every ball hard in practice or find whatever shortcut there is for whatever it is they're doing. But softball skills don't work that way, they are long term development projects being constructed by now! players – not a good combination. This is why we've got to do anything we can to help our players notice those little tiny improvements they make every day but immediately dismiss as meaningless. While achieving such a monumental jump in skill is virtually impossible overnight it doesn't mean the player can't make small steps or baby strides toward that improvement. Players often make little-bitty improvements while virtually dismissing them as insignificant, it's as if a little bit doesn't matter at all. Well let's look at just how powerful a Little Bit can really be. Pop Quiz – What do you think your players would pick if you gave them a choice between having a million dollars right now, and taking a penny and doubling it every day for a month? It's an interesting question and I'll bet that most of your players would take the million dollars, and let's face it, it would be hard not to. The million dollars represents an immediate reward and a huge amount of money. It represents what our players want in the way of skill improvement which is an immediate reward and sudden success.
Now, what about the penny? This story isn't about sudden success or large, huge improvements but instead is about the Power of a Little Bit, and nothing is more representative of a little bit of anything than the penny – 1 cent. A penny is so insignificant that most people don't even stop to pick it up if they find a penny on the ground, or they simply grab one out of the dish if they're a penny short at the checkout counter. But as we're about to see, a little bit of anything added on top of itself over and over is a very powerful thing.
Now looking at our offer – a million dollars now or a penny doubled every day for a month – which one did you take? You might be surprised to learn that had you taken the penny offer you would have been a millionaire on Day #28 (and actually had $342,177.28 extra), and at the end of your month (a 31 day month) you would have ended up with $10 Million Dollars! 10 Million Dollars and yet you started with something as little, small and almost insignificant as a penny! Just in case you don't believe me the chart to the right shows the actual path your penny will take as it doubles itself over the course of a month.
So the next time your players get frustrated with themselves, or simply want to dismiss making even a little bit of progress remind them of the Power of a Little Bit – how a penny doubled every day for a month will result in over 10 million dollars! A little bit done day after day after day adds up to a whole lotta bit!
By the way, this is also a very powerful lesson for us as coaches when it comes to staying patient at the beginning of our season when our team might not be playing exactly like we know they eventually need to. As long as they're making a little bit of progress every day then in a pretty short amount of time that progress will start to compound and when it really starts to matter that same team is suddenly really good!

Great article! This is the power of COMPOUNDING — sometimes referred to as the eighth wonder of the world. Extreme patience and discipline are required, as the big "returns" are realized in the latter periods. But the payoff is enormous.

I'VE never had very enjoyable experiences at the Deva.
From the time I got my car scratched in the car park (thanks for that) to the time I was chased down the road in my early teens by three grown men.
That was a real macho thing to do, gents.
So I don't hold out much hope for tomorrow's trip to C******, especially after what I witnessed against Mansfield last weekend.
Unfortunately – and I never thought I'd ever write this – I saw two sides that didn't deserve to be in the division.
I've never seen a Wrexham team pass so poorly – and was there in the Mike Quigley-era.
The pitch didn't help, but even simple balls to a player in a red shirt seemed beyond them.
We really need Danny Sonner back, but I've got the feeling he may have one of those injuries that keeps on niggling and we'll miss him for a while.
We carried little goal threat, and even though we were strong at the back, it only takes a deflected goal to let the opposition in.
On that display there is simply no way we'll stay in the Football League, but the good thing about supporting Wrexham is that they always seem to come good when the chips are down.
And they are certainly down.
But what better way would there be to start our push for safety than a win at our biggest rivals?
Now that would make my afternoon.

Gino Vistosi blue & pink discs chandelier on Vintageinfo
Gino Vistosi Salmon Pink Discs Chandelier
Materials: 36 Murano hand blown crystal glass salmon pink coloured discs. Metal (iron) chromed frame. Bakelite sockets.
Chain lenght: 60 cm / 23.62"
Height: 53 cm / 20.86"
Width: ∅ 47 cm / 18.50"
Electricity: 6 bulbs E14, 9 x 60 watt maximum, 1 bulb E27, 75 watt maximum, 110/220 volt (2 circuits).
Any type of light bulb with an E14 socket and an E27 socket can be used. But bright/clear bulbs gives the most beautiful effect.
Period: 1950s – Mid-Century Modern.
Designer: Gino Vistosi (1925-1980).
Manufacturer: Vistosi, AV Mazzega and many other Murano companies made these chandeliers.
Other versions: Different sizes and colours. More or less discs. Also made as a wall lamp, flush mount and table lamp. Other disc chandeliers on this website: Gino Vistosi Disc Chandeliers
This spectacular hand blown glass disc chandelier is characteristic of Gino's design vocabulary: simple, geometric shapes. None of these lamps are identical and are all handmade.
Despite the fact that Gino Vistosi designed these lamps, all of the lamp producers on the Murano island made these chandeliers. It was a big hit and they were made for more than 30 years. Few are marked with a label.
Vistosi was created by Guglielmo Vistosi in Murano in 1945 focusing on lighting. After his premature death his sons Gino and Luciano, joined their uncle Oreste in the founding of the Vistosi company.
In 1956 Alessandro Pianon, a Venetian Architect, joined the company. Together with second generation Luciano and Gino Vistosi they gave a swing to the company focusing on innovation and design.
The company has employed some very relevant designers such as Angelo Mangiarotti, Gae Aulenti. Peter Pelzel, Ettore Sottsass Jr., Adalberto Dal Lago. Vico Magistretti, Enrico Tronconi and so on.
In 1989 Giancarlo Moretti, a businessman from Murano with a long experience in the glass sector with Vetrofond and Punto Luce, acquires the prestigious brand, giving birth to Vetreria Vistosi. In the 1990s the factory closed for a couple of years. It was reopened by Matteo Moretti, Giancarlo's son, who relaunched the Vistosi brand. During the same period Vistosi acquired the brands Alox, G2 and Triade. Today, the company still produces the most beautiful lamps, some of them old classics.
The sole survivor of the original founders, Luciano, born 24 February 1930, dedicated himself to research and glass sculpture until his death (in Venice) on 14 Mai 2010.
This is how this chandelier looks like without turning on the light bulbs.

Romantic Ballerina Wedding Styled Shoot | Brooklyn Wedding Photographer
Photographing dancers and Weddings are both passions of mine. I'm so inspired by the elegance and beauty of both and they each inspire me in different ways. So naturally I wanted to fuse them together into a beautiful Romantic ballet inspired Wedding shoot. Our shoot was featured last week on Wedding chicks.
This was my first styled shoot and I wanted it to be amazing. I had a specific vision for and I knew what I wanted but I just needed the right people to make it to come to life. I met with Renae over hot chocolate earlier this year and we instantly hit it off. We talked about our inspiration and I told her my idea for this shoot.
She instantly loved the idea and said she had a florist in mind that we could work with. Before I knew it, we had a full team of wonderful vendors and it all came together. It wasn't that simple, I'll share a detailed blog post about the entire process later, but for now I want to show a few a my favorites from the shoot.
Special thanks to all of the amazing vendors I had the pleasure of working with:

impossible . . .
There are three things that are absolutely impossible to get children to do.
- Go to the bathroom.
- You can't force your child to speak.
- Eat.
I think it's high-time we all stop this madness. Just model good behavior folks. Use the bathroom with the door open so your children can see you. Speak politely to your children, husband and those around you. And eat healthy food. Eventually your child will pick up these habits. It's all about modeling!
P.S. I have so much more I would like to say about this and soon I will. In the meantime get on your armor cuz I ain't gonna be polite about how I say this stuff!

King Richard reigns once again.
A federal jury in Birmingham, Ala., stunned observers Tuesday when it acquitted Richard Scrushy, the former HealthSouth CEO, of all criminal charges stemming from a $2.7 billion accounting fraud at the company he founded. And so the executive whose imperial lifestyle and dictatorial workplace demeanor once earned him the nickname King Richard has been spared the life prison sentence that has threatened him since his ouster from HealthSouth and subsequent indictment two years ago.
"The truth has come to the surface," Scrushy said in an interview from his home Tuesday evening. Sounding exhausted, he said it was too early to talk about his plans for the future. For the next few weeks, he simply wants to spend time with his family. "We need to live without this burden on us."
Scrushy also expressed some bitterness at what he said the government had put him through, saying that he had spent $25 million in legal fees. He also fired a shot at the current executive team at HealthSouth, which issued a statement Tuesday saying Scrushy would not be welcome back.
"There need to be some questions asked about HealthSouth," he said. "What about the $300 million they've spent on trips in Learjets to Palm Beach and other things after I left?"
Legal Victory
Not only is Scrushy a free man, but he has pulled off a victory where other corporate honchos – Bernie Ebbers, Martha Stewart, Dennis Kozlowski, John Rigas and Frank Quattrone – failed.

Submit search
You may very well come across many different numbers and addresses while working or it may be your job to strictly keep track of this type of information. There are different programs on the computer that can store this information for you but what if for some reason the computer system goes down? That is a problem that companies find themselves running into every now and then because everyone is starting to rely so heavily on technology these days. It is always good practice to have back up though for those just in case emergencies.When obtaining client/patient information you can first write everything down in an address book and always keep a telephone book handy. It can stay in a bottom drawer in your desk but it is better to have one than to be without. Another added benefit to address books is that they can be never ending somewhat like a rolodex. All you need to do is purchase some loose-leaf address book refills and add pages in whichever section it is needed. Rapid Supplies has you covered in all areas of office needs. When looking through the products, remember it is better to be prepared and ready for any situation.

Wall-E, had been out for a while before a love note attached to an umbrella left on my doorstep convinced me to finally see it. I don't think I moved a muscle during that film, at certain parts I'm sure that I barely breathed, and (as embarrassing as it is to admit it) I inexplicably cried like a baby as the credits rolled. Pixar man…they do good stuff…Which brings me to Ben Anderson and the artists of, The People Who Play With Theatre. I have to say it folks, for this blogger they might just be the Pixar of The Basement season. How so? Here's how.
"Just Above The Clouds", is not only visually yummy, but it is also intelligently plotted, quirky as hell, heart stirring, and handy with humor that is just on the great side of corny. On top of that, it's flat out excellent theatre. Anderson, could have easily done what so many playwrights do and made it a play between two leads (albeit in a dreamscape) supported by an interesting ensemble. However, he brilliantly incorporated those puppets and in doing so added a depth of layers that made the experience all the richer for it's audience. The existence of the puppets coupled with the energy and focus that the actors give them takes "Just Above The Clouds" from not only being a beautifully imaginative piece of theatre but an important one as well. This is the kind of theatre that I am going to reference anytime I am trying to make an argument for why theatre being created today is still viable in a world of 3D films and IMAX Movie Theaters.
Look, I could nerd out for paragraphs on all the ways seeing "Just Above The Clouds" inspired me tonight; not only as an artist (seriously, anyone into creating "experimental & ensemble driven" theatre, buy a ticket), but also as a person. However, let me wrap this up by simply saying that you should catch the show because The People Who Play With Theatre, man…they do good stuff.

Carrie Underwood, one of the most successful singers to come out of "American Idol," has some advice for future "Idol" competitors.
"Any contestant who does well on 'Idol' has to stay true to what people voted for," Underwood recently told reporters in a conference call. "I've seen it happen a few times where people are one thing on the show and then they get off the show and try to do something else. That's really strange because 'Idol' is one of those things where [audiences] are telling you what they want. It's the best testing form that you can possibly have."
Underwood is set to host the "Carrie Underwood: All-Star Holiday Special," airing tonight at 8 on Fox. The two-hour variety show will feature music from her new album as well as previous hits, holiday classics, collaborations with guest stars Dolly Parton, Brad Paisley and David Cook and short sketches, including one with Kristin Chenoweth and Christina Applegate.
"We ended up doing a medley of throwback songs from the '50s and '60s, with matching pink dresses and beehives," said Underwood. "They showed up and they were willing to do whatever we needed them to do. Three blonds. We had fun together."
A big 'Apple' welcome for Sliwa
Curtis Sliwa won't be on the sidelines for long after leaving WABC (770 AM).
He says he will start Jan. 11 as the morning host on WNYM (970 AM), known as "The Apple."
Sliwa did several morning stints at WABC in his 18 years there and said he was eager to get back to mornings.
WNYM has a syndicated talk lineup that includes another former WABC morning man, Mike Gallagher, but it has so far made little dent in the local ratings. Sliwa gives the station a local morning host and a higher profile - though its signal has less coverage than those of WABC or WOR (710 AM).
Sliwa also shut down any reports or wishes that his new show could reunite him with his former WABC partner, Ron Kuby. Since Kuby testified in court for Sliwa's archenemy, John (Junior) Gotti, said Sliwa, "I can barely stand to be in a room with him. There is zero chance we will do another radio show."
