As stated above, 1 needs to select the girls bedroom decor according to the person who is going to stay in the bedroom. Some farmers' markets also sell potted mums, and these make excellent Thanksgiving decorations. Adding accents in the bedroom will help greatly to give the final touch, and helpful products like a lamp can also be selected, with such a design that enhances the bedroom decor. I typically tend to go crazy after my neighborhood walmart begins putting out the Xmas decor come late October-early November, but even prior to all that hussel and bussel begins i normally will begin decorating my bedroom for Xmas on November 1st which is how its always been with me, i like putting the decor up properly in advance cuz i do not normally decorate for thanksgiving. Select from a selection of mounting and framing choices to suit your interior decor and your pocketbook.
Having a handful of additional pillows about is a straightforward way to develop comfortable makeshift seating for huge groups of people. Concentrate rather on the surprised looks on your friends' and family's faces when you share the excellent news. Of course, you may possibly want to make your pumpkins say anything, or you might want to give them a pattern or design and style. Final, but not least, here is a beautiful piece of bedroom decor which you can make out of old Christmas decorations you have gathering dust in the attic. Erica posts property decor inspiration that is beautiful and inspiring but what holds her apart from the hundreds of other comparable accounts is how her character shines through! You can modify mats throughout the year so you can alter the decorating plan seasonally.
Real or fake mini trees can make wonderful centerpieces and empty boxes wrapped in wrapping paper offer economical decorations that can add a gorgeous element to the affair. Verify out this incredible Red Sound Comforter Bedding Set, which contains a comforter, a pillow sham and matching pillowcase, a bedskirt, and a decorative cushion. White lights and black drapes make excellent decorations for the walls and windows even though centerpieces can incorporate something theatre-connected. Even though little ones are so eager to place up Christmas decorations at the starting of September (since they start off hearing Christmas carols everywhere), we typically do it throughout the initial weekend of December and take them down following the 3 Kings (January six). In my 8 years in China, I identified that Chinese men and women do not like the color blue for decorating.
This year will be my extremely 1st Xmas on my personal as I've finally moved out for the 1st time & i strategy to start off decorating on the exact same day i often have….November 1st!! Use a Mix of Colors – When decorating with any colour, I have identified that the magic comes in mixing. The decorative is taken up as a device in order to realize a different mode of art's operation, of weakening art's so called autonomy, in order to restore the objects intersubjective and social capacities.
It would make a phenomenal decorative pillow for a bed or a sofa, and it fits into the Frozen theme completely completely. I enjoy these metal bird decorations and they fit completely inside this larger jewelry board that is roughly 5 inches by 7 inches. Although the shade and hue of blue could modify over time, the recognition of blue in house decor has never waned. I am a girl who loves possessing a large pile of pillows on her bed, so I'm absolutely going to get some of these. I love purple, and I love decorating with it, but even I would not suggest painting your entire living room or bedroom wall in a sea of purple.

Many times, the focus for caring for loved ones at home is physical needs. These include activities of daily living, such as cooking, cleaning, and grooming, as well as medical treatment or therapy.
The result is often that their emotional and social needs are disregarded.
A little over one-third of American adults over 45 were categorized as lonely, according to a 2010 AARP national survey. The study also found that loneliness was a predictor of poor health. "Those who rated their health as 'excellent' were over half as likely to be lonely than those who rated their health as 'poor' (25% vs. 55%)."
Companionship plays a significant role in the health of people who rely on home care.
Consider the example of Mr. A.
Mr. A was the subject of a 2011 study by doctors Renee P. Meyer and Dean Schuyler. At 75, he lived alone in a wooded rural area following his wife's death, relying on his daughter or a paid caregiver for transportation. When his daughter went on an extended business trip and his caregiver married, they paid less attention to Mr. A. The authors write that, during that time, he "took his medication erratically, seemed strident and impulsive when seen by visiting nurses, fell more often, and finally called a suicide help line reporting that he was contemplating shooting himself."
Following a hospital visit, Mr. A's daughter took a more active role in his life. "Since renewed attention was given to Mr A and his care, there has been no further mention of, or acts of, self-harm," the authors note. "There have been no recent falls."
The researchers linked loneliness to "depression, poor health status, decreased mobility, and cognitive decline." Further, they suggest "health status can improve if loneliness is diminished through companionship, satisfying family relations, and activities with a sense of purpose."
Authors of a broader study published in 2009 made similar conclusions to those associated with Mr. A: "a significant positive correlation exists between loneliness and depression," and that the correlation was found in both men and women.
We have found that when loved ones lose their independence, it can be a very traumatic experience and affect their quality of life. That's why we suggest home health care professionals perform what we would normally consider simple tasks as doing crossword puzzles, playing board games, or just talking with them. We offer a variety of companions to make sure they're the right fit for your loved one. "Being able to speak with someone in person now a days is a true accomplishment," said one of our clients. "For that alone, I am forever grateful!"

Hook Up or More?
Hey Guys,
So I met this guy on Tinder and we have been talking for about a month now. He's part of a frat so I went to the mixer and we hung out and then I spent the night at his place. I thought like when we were chilling before going to bed that like we were having a really good connection. Like we were cuddling and making eye contact for like two hours.
So the next night he invites me over again and the same set of events happened again. So is he just looking for a hookup or are we on the way to something more?
Dear E,
We chose your question because it seems to fit with an alarming trend we're seeing in the dating world. We're not sure if social media is the cause, or just that social media has made it easier to find prospective partners, but the concern we're having is the lack of effort by the pursuers—men—and the acceptance of this lack of effort by women.
Let's take a look at your situation. (We'll also answer your question.)
The positive:
1. You talked for a month before you actually got together with him. (We're not sure if this was because you wanted to get to know him first, or he was trying to get to know you.) But we'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say that he at least knows enough not to try and hook up with you right out of the gate.
The Not So Positives:
1. Him inviting you to a mixer rather than something one on one where you can get to know one another in person. Coffee. Lunch. A walk. Dinner. This would also show that he's willing to put effort into seeing you. AND spend money on you. Inviting you to a mixer is a copout in our minds.
2. Hooking up at the mixer. (This hands him all the power way too soon.)
So to answer your question. Cuddling and making eye contact could mean something but not necessarily. It's all about the context. Within a committed relationship, cuddling and eye contact could mean genuine love and affection. But in your case, it's more likely to mean that he was ultra excited to have sex with you. (FYI: New sex is quite exciting in and of itself.) The point is, those are not necessarily indicators that he has an interest in you beyond sex.
So what would indicators look like? First and foremost: EFFORT!! Like we mentioned previously. Taking you out. Asking you questions. Trying to learn about you. Coming up with interesting dates for the two of you to go on. Spending money on you. Wanting to meet your friends. And so on. We strongly encourage you to use these indicators in the future NOT cuddling before sex. (You might want to let your friends know the same.)
Question: Have you read our book? We encourage you to read it. We think you might learn some things about guys from it. Check it out on Amazon. Inside your Guy's Mind
FYI: A good rule to follow is this. Do NOT have sex until it's somewhat clear that the relationship is moving in the direction you'd like it to. One way to do this is actually COMMUNICATE with each other. We're not suggesting you should have asked him what he wanted, but women tend to shy away from the "What are We" conversation too often. (That's a discussion for another time, but wanted to point that out.)
Let us know if you have any follow-up questions.
Good luck,

This season, B-schools to cast net wider for placements4 min read . Updated: 29 Sep 2009, 11:35 PM IST
This season, B-schools to cast net wider for placements
This season, B-schools to cast net wider for placements
Bangalore/Kolkata: Rajant Meshran, a second-year student of the flagship post graduate programme in management at the Indian Institute of Management, Bangalore (IIM-B), is sanguine about his job prospects as the global economy fights its way out of recession.
"The markets have improved (from last year)...the placement team is working very hard," says Meshran, who will be up for a job placement in March.
Meshran expects the next placements season to be at least better than it was for the class of 2009, which became a casualty of the unprecedented financial maelstrom that shook economies across the globe, including India.
Recruiters from Wall Street, the epicentre of the crisis that peaked with the mid-September 2008 collapse of investment bank Lehman Brothers Holdings Inc. and the hurried sale of Merrill Lynch and Co. to Bank of America Corp., stayed away from on-campus interviews at Indian B-schools and several local companies froze hiring.
Average salaries at the prestigious IIM Ahmedabad (IIM-A) and IIM Calcutta (IIM-C) fell 30% and 20%, respectively, for domestic jobs; placements that used to conclude in two-three days dragged on for at least 9-10 days on several campuses.
As the intensity of the global economic crisis abates and world markets recover, students such as Meshran may have reason to be complacent. Foreign institutional investors had poured $11.2 billion (Rs53,760 crore) into Indian stock markets as of last Friday this year, and companies are again tapping the capital markets for funds, signalling a revival in investment banking activity.
Despite the financial crisis, international banks such as the Indian arm of Citigroup Inc., HSBC Holdings Plc and Standard Chartered Plc visited IIM campuses in the last recruitment season, and they are expected this time round as well.
Still, B-schools aren't leaving anything to chance. Schools are reaching out to more recruiters, be they not-for-profit organizations, small and medium enterprises and even the United Nations (UN).
"We have to reach out to all companies," says P.D. Jose, an associate professor and head of the career development services at IIM-B. "Most companies will come because they want to maintain a relationship with us."
Jose thinks that much like in 2009, companies will recruit fewer numbers in the next placement season. The school, which says it keeps enlarging its company base, has reached out to at least 800 companies, up from 700 last time.
Over the last month, IIMs have been sending out invitations to companies to visit their campuses. November will see potential recruiters making presentations on campus, with final placements due in March.
Indian Oil Corp., the country's biggest refiner, for one, plans to visit IIMs in the coming placement season following its maiden appearance in March.
"There is growing interest in the public sector, particularly from the IIMs," said V.C. Agrawal, director (human resources) at Indian Oil.
In the last placement season, the company visited IIM-A, IIM-B, IIM-C, IIM Indore (IIM-I) and IIM Kozhikode (IIM-K) and recruited at least 25 students. The company plans to recruit the same number this year as well.
IIM-C, which invited some 2,000 companies last year, would be reaching out to around 5,000 this year for the summer placements. Companies that visit the campus in November would be invited to come and hire during final placements as well.
"Pre-placement offers for those who did summer internships earlier this year have already started coming in and the propensity of companies to hire students who have interned with them appears high," says Preet Pillai, a second-year IIM-C student and placement coordinator.
Apart from traditional sectors such as finance, marketing and consultancy, the school hopes to attract start-ups, private equity and venture capital firms, and media and advertising agencies.
IIM-C would also be reaching out to organizations such as the Planning Commission, the UN, the Asian Development Bank and the Japan Bank for International Cooperation, among others.
At IIM-A, Vivek Jain, a member of the students' placement cell, declined to comment on placements. Last year, the school saw several first-time recruiters on-campus—Jaypee Capital Ltd, which hired 12, Union Bank of India, which made 18 offers, and Unicon Securities Pvt. Ltd, which made 12.
IIM-K says it has reached out to at least 1,000 companies compared with 600 last year.
"We are looking at more non-profits and microfinance institutions," says Rohan Jaikishen, a second-year student and member of the placement committee at IIM-K, having contacted 70 outfits in this space, up from 35 last year. "We are asking more about roles this year than pay." The school has 260 students to place, up from 180 the last time around.
IIM-I, too, has doubled the number of companies it invited for recruitment, but did not reveal the exact number. "We have a larger base (of companies) so that everyone gets placed and gets roles of their choice," says Rishi Pathak, a member of the placement committee at IIM-I. He expects a lot more small and medium firms to visit its campus.
The country's second-rung private schools, meantime, are keeping their fingers crossed.
"We are even inviting lesser-known and regional companies like small and medium enterprises and local brokerage firms in addition to the regular recruiters this year," says Srinivas Cheedi, dean of the career management centre at IBS, Hyderabad, formerly known as the ICFAI Business School, Hyderabad.
The school, which has waived the minimum salary criteria this year, plans to reach out to some 6,000 big, medium and small companies, up from 2,000 last year.
Considering that students may not be mentally prepared to join unknown, smaller companies, IBS has begun counselling them to be ready for such an eventuality.

Early yesterday afternoon while flying home from Washington, I initially struggled somewhere between being fully alert and drifting off to sleep. I subsequently found that sleep didn't come or couldn't come. There were extenuating circumstances, but I also had a lot to think about. Consequently, fully awake eventually won the struggle. I didn't want to waste the experiences previously shared over the past couple of days by failing to reflect on them and search for nuggets of truth too valuable to dismiss by not searching for the lessons to be remembered.
Of course, as I sat at the gate waiting for my departing flight, I had fantasized that it would be good to sleep through the first leg of the flight (i.e.: from Washington to Dallas/Fort Worth). Three hours is a long flight and I was tired. I won't say I had burned the candle at both ends, but it had been a very full two days. I was intent on making the best of it. Sometimes to do that, you have to color outside the lines and at times abdicate to the wishes or needs of others in the group.
Friday night I was up way past my bedtime. It wasn't just for me, but it was for me. I just reread that last sentence and I think it is incongruent, but at the same time it accurately portrays reality. Consequently, I will say it again. "It wasn't just for me, but it was for me."
Sometimes you do things because you know it is important to someone else, even if that someone else doesn't know that it is important until after they've had the experience. Okay, so now you think I'm talking nonsense. Let me explain it this way: "Would I have ventured out on my own at that time of night? The answer is most assuredly not, yet "count me in" was my vote".
Actually, I guess the "count me in" was self-evident because I was the one who posed the question. I guess that is short for saying the late night excursion was my idea. I thought it was a good one, but sometimes timing is everything and it was late. My judgment may have been flawed, but my gut told me it was the right thing to do. Sometimes my intuitive default button highlights this reality: "The only place we have is here and the only time we have is now." Can you argue with either of those assertions?
I didn't go to the Vietnam Veteran's Memorial (AKA – The Wall) three months ago when I in Washington. Going to The Wall is something I normally do when I am in D.C., but time got away from me and I didn't make my customary visit.
Maybe it is only my imagination, but stopping by The Wall is tantamount for me to "emotionally checking in for old time's sake". I think I can make that assertion because it has been a very long, long time.
My stopping by The Wall is also a tangible way to remind myself that the issue is still important. I'm not ready to let go! There is still a small cross in front of Ronnie's name indicating that he's still missing. I want the symbol changed to a diamond to indicate his death has been confirmed. Of course, the other possible symbol is a circle around the cross to indicate the person has been accounted for and returned alive. To date, the third option has never been used on any name etched in the granite stone.
There were only five of us in the late Friday night group excursion, but one of us had never been to the Wall. He had never been to Washington before. What better time than late night to visit The Wall for the first time?
In the cloak of darkness the number of names on The Wall doesn't look as ominous and overpowering as it does during the daytime. It takes more effort to see the names because the row of soft lights emerging from the base of the walkway doesn't illuminate the names. Unless you read by braille, you'll never find the panel your looking for or the name of your loved one without a flashlight or candle.
Like a horse heading toward the barn, I can operate like a bat in the darkness to locate Ronnie's name. His name is on the same panel as the family member of two of the people I was with Friday night. Of course, my niece was also there, so we had Ronnie's name covered.
Yet the real reason my gut told me that Friday night was the time and place for visiting The Wall had no relationship to the four of us. It was for the fifth person in our group that I thought it was important that we go. He had never been to The Wall before. No doubt he would have gone while he was still in Washington, but selfishly, I didn't want him to locate his uncle's name without being with people he knew. He didn't know us well, but we had met the day before and we four had an awareness of what it feels like the first time you see a loved one's name chiseled into that granite wall. No one should have that experience in the presence of strangers. It was a wise man that asserted: "Shared joy is double joy and shared sorrow is half sorrow".
Consequently it proved to be a long night. At the same time, it was a meaningful and memorable night. I was grateful that we went. My gut instinct was right. The downside was it proved to be a very short night. It was also a long flight home.
Over the three hours of the first leg of my flight, I was lost mostly in thought. I was tired, but obviously not nearly as tired as the passenger in Row 27, Seat D on the plane on which I was a passenger. As I mentioned earlier, there were extenuating circumstances. I had the experience (I almost said misfortune) of being the passenger assigned to Row 27, Seat E. I was the guy in the middle seat. A lady sat to my right. She was assigned to Row 27, Seat F.
The seating arrangement was awkward. The man seated to my left (Row 27 – Seat D) was a large man. He would have been far more comfortable had he been assigned to Seats D&F, but it was a full flight and there was no extra space.
At some point, I looked to my right and the lady next to me on my right had her head propped against the aircraft. She was sound asleep. The guy to my left was also sound asleep. He, too, was leaning to the right. Thankfully, it wasn't his head, but his right shoulder was propped and positioned against mine. I'm not making this up. We were tight. Awkward? – Yes / Comfortable? – No. There was nowhere for me to move. He was invading my space and his weight was pushing against me. He on the other hand, was sleeping soundly. Did I mention his nap lasted for three consecutive hours?
At some point, the lyrics to the song, "Lean on Me" began to roll around in my head. You probably remember the song:
"Sometimes in our lives we all have pain
We all have sorrow
But if we are wise
We know that there's always tomorrow
Lean on me, when you're not strong
And I'll be your friend
I'll help you carry on
For it won't be long
'Til I'm gonna need
Somebody to lean on…"
The sound of the lyrics to "Lean On Me" rolling around in my head were like a healing balm. The wise man who said: "Shared joy is double joy and shared sorrow is half sorrow" also said: "Two are better than one". He also made reference to the fact that: "A chord of three strands is not easily broken." That thought should serve to plant the lyrics to "Lean On Me" in each of heads more often.
All My Best!

Which social media platform is your business on? Facebook? Twitter? LinkedIn? Instagram? Snapchat? Pinterest? YouTube? Flickr? Vimeo?
In this blog, we run through some of the most popular social media platforms and identify the best business user for each.
Facebook is the biggest social network on the web, both in terms of name recognition and total number of users. With nearly 2 billion active users, Facebook is a great medium for connecting people from all over the world with your business. Facebook allows users to post text, links to content, photos, videos, live video, events, items for sales, and SO much more.
American women and men between the ages of 25 – 54 make up 32% and 29% of Facebook users and only 9% of users are between the ages of 18 – 24. If your company targets a slightly older market, Facebook is the platform to use. Facebook could be especially valuable because it encompasses the largest blend of demographics of any social media platform and 44% of users check Facebook several times per day. So, post away!
Twitter focuses more on text (strictly 140 characters or fewer), but also allows users to share images, videos, links, and polls. It is made up of a "stream" of short posts that users can reply to by mentioning usernames in their posts with an @ sign. User can also use hashtags (#) to search for users posting about similar topics.
Twitter has proven to be a valuable tool to reach people all over the world. Specifically, it is a strong tool for customer service. It provides a unique environment for customers to express their grievances immediately and directly and for businesses to shine by responding promptly and with a thoughtful response to retain the customer.
24% of all male internet users use Twitter and 21% of all female internet users use Twitter. Twitter is a valuable resource for multiple kinds of businesses, but largely a younger audience. About 37% of Twitter users are between the ages of 18 and 29 and 25% are 30-49 years old. Furthermore, Twitter serves as a strong platform to develop market presence for start-ups through thought leadership and engagement.
LinkedIn is the ultimate social media platform if you work in a B2B field. It allows individuals to connect with business professionals, and to target prospects by industry, title, company, job search and recruitment, and much more. One of LinkedIn's best features for businesses are LinkedIn Groups. You can enter or create Groups that focus on your specific niche or industry and invite others to join.
LinkedIn has 106 million active monthly users and 40% of users sign in daily. 70% of users are from outside of the United States, but only 13% of users are between the ages of 15 and 34.
Instagram is photography and video only social media platform. Instagram has proven to be popular since its launch in 2010, but it has been a challenge for marketers since it changed its algorithm so that posts are no longer posted in chronological order. This change has taken away control from companies using Instagram as a marketing and sales tool. In addition, users cannot add clickable links to their posts unless the post is clearly marked as an ad, which makes it a much less valuable source for organic marketing.
That being said, Instagram is a good resource for reaching an international audience, considering 80% of its users are outside of the U.S. The majority of users are between 18 and 29 and 32% of teenagers consider Instagram to be the most important social network. In conclusion, Instagram is most useful for brand development tool for companies with a young target audience.
Snapchat is the go-to platform for users under the age of 24. There are over 100 million users on Snapchat consuming 30 minutes of content every single day.
Snapchat is a mobile-only social media app that allows users to send and receive "disappearing" photos and videos, and to post them on public stories that makes the content available for 24 hours. Users can choose from a variety of filters from the app's selection, varying from animal faces to timely frames for events or announcements. Since its launch in 2011, Snapchat has expanded to offer chat, messaging, image storage, events, and media content.

London Fashion Week Songzio – Men's Autumn/Winter 2017
Titled: Misanthrope
Titled 'Misanthrope', the designer's vision was the story of a young man, walking the cold yet serene street on an eerie morning of an unknown city. This stern and almost ascetic young man immersed in his own high sense of beauty and life finds himself charmed and warmed by the winter lights piercing the cold mist of dawn.
Conjuring up images of the beautiful and well dressed Dorian Gray, this romantic collection has a dark dapper touch reminiscent of the Victorian London era with high collared shirts, neckties and long flowing coats.
Each look represents the young misanthrope's free and light conscience, cocooned by the heaviness of his own asceticism. The result is a collection that is dramatic and bold yet balanced with delicate artworks, depicted through dark armour-like outerwear and juxtaposed with light sensual, delicate art prints underneath.
In a moment of weakness, the lure of luxury, plush velvet jackets soften the young man's ascetic exterior.
Free-flowing shirts are paired with voluminous trousers and long black coats that fall strongly from the shoulders.
Chunky knitted cardigans sporting medieval spaulder-like patches on the shoulder are worn with oversized crisp striped shirts and cravat ties.
The main colour palette is black with just a splash of browns, camel and light orange.
Blurring the boundaries of fashion and art and continuing with the designer's concept, 'Paint on Black', each item of the collection emanates from the season's original paintings, painted by Songzio himself.
The fusion of abstract art with modernist clothing is the brand's unique signature style. From cold sharply tailored suits to romantic volumes, every season is another delicately curated exposition.
Our top picks for a day at the races are:
Cosy and warm double breasted coat with fur collar to keep the cold at bay.
Whilst the printed trousers may be too avant garde for a day at the races, the light orange polo neck works well with the chocolate brown coat, providing a simple sartorial silhouette.
An E store is coming soon via www.songzio.com

Unstoppable Style: A Lesson in Dealing With Fashion (and Life) Obstacles/
I'm not proud of the fact that it's been 8 days since my last post, but I do have a good excuse. My new mother and sister-in-law were visiting from New Jersey the past few days, forcing me to blissfully leave my usual station in front of the computer, excessively checking Facebook. It was a wonderful visit, especially since it almost didn't happen. See, my new sister Kim has had a rough past couple of years. She was diagnosed with Crohn's Disease, which has landed her in the hospital so many times it's almost the status quo, and brought upon multiple surgeries, one of which was to reroute her intestines out the side of her stomach, and attached to a bag that catches all her digested food. Just last week, Kim was in the hospital with Pancreatitis, yet another problem caused by the disease. We thought for sure the LA trip would be canceled, but Kim being the fighter that she is, insisted that this not stop her from doing what she had planned to do. Lucky for all of us, the doctor gave her the green light, and we had a wonderful time.
As I have watched Kim go through hardship after hardship, I can't help but ask myself how I would handle this situation. Constant stays in the hospital, surgeries, prolonged visits to public bathrooms (or bushes, depending on the circumstances) and plastic bags attached to my stomach... I'm embarrassed to admit it, but for the sake of my point, I must: I think it's safe to say that I would be a massive wreck, constantly asking "Why me?" But not Kim. I literally have never heard her complain about what life has brought her. Not once. In fact, she almost manages to make it look cool - she becomes BFF with all her doctors, compassionately nicknamed her external intestine nub "Peach," bought fab new one piece bathing suits, and has adopted her new required lowfat diet with such grace, I find myself wanting to follow in her footsteps. There's something about the way she approaches the day-to-day that makes it feel like her obstacles are just as trivial as the rest of our stupid problems. Oh - and did I mention she is only 17?
From left: Victoria's Secret Retro One-Piece $125, Spiegel Metallic Print One-Piece $49, J. Crew Petals One-Piece $59.99
One of our favorite activities to do together is shop. Just like all the girls her age, Kim loves to experiment with fashion, and adopt new styles for new school years. This Fall, it's what she calls the "LA Look" - skinny jeans, plaid shirts, fedoras, and wayfarers. We were like kids in a candy store at The Grove, looking for all the pieces that would make a statement on the first day of her senior year, but still work with Peach. Most of us girls can wear shirts that sit close to the body or bikinis without giving it a second thought, but Kim is working with a different set of rules- nothing tight fitting or stomach baring, but yet, nothing that makes her look pregnant. Like a torpedo, Kim barreled through the stores, piling things on her arm that she knew would work with what she's got. In the dressing room, one thing after another looked completely bangarang on her. Oversized plaid flannels, empire waist bohemian tops, a snap-up sweatshirt with oversized collar... she rocked it so hard, one would never even notice that she's working with a "fashion obstacle." This girl doesn't even know the meaning of obstacle.
Hear Her Roar by thelifestyled featuring Vivienne Westwood bags
I'm convinced that one of the main factors that gets Kim through the hard days is her Fire essence. She is a walking example of the Pleasure Seeker archetype, and she uses it to her full advantage. Whether it's becoming best friends with all her nurses and doctors, constantly making everyone around her laugh, soaking up all the attention, or dreaming up ideas for the tattoo she's determined to get the minute she turns 18, Kim is always implementing the Fire philosophy: if it's not fun, don't do it... and if you must do it, then make it fun!
Pacsun Tee $17.50
I am reminded of a t-shirt she picked up off a table full of different graphic tees - it was bright pink with the face of a tiger on it. It was perfect for Kim - the girl who's so ferocious, nothing can stop her from living the life she wants. Not a disease, or her new "best friend" Peach. The next time I think the world is coming to an end because my jeans are fitting a little tight or I'm "sick of everything in my closet", I'm going to think of Kim, and how she manages to overcome every massive curve ball her young life has thrown her, without ever missing a beat.

But the extended break since the regular season has helped. I dont know if hes 100 percent, but hes been running the ball well and hes back at full go, Littrell said. COACHING CADETS Army coach Jeff Monken described his players this way: They are very unselfish and play as a team. We dont have any guys on our team that are all-star, just knock-your-socks-off, great players. Weve just got a bunch of good, tough, hard-nosed guys that try real hard and play well together. PAST TIDE Alec Morris threw only one pass while at Alabama for two national titles in four years. The graduate transfer, who was a Texas prep standout, ends his collegiate career starting at QB for North Texas in a bowl. Freshman starter Mason Fine missed the last two games with a shoulder injury. Alec has probably had his two best weeks of practice that he has had since hes been here, Littrell said. Masons healthy.

I am doing some research for a novel and need to know since such navigation of this scale is way over my head.
An Aircraft Carrier sails from the RAAF Base Darwin in Australia to Fort Washington near Washington D.C. in America. What is the quickest and best route for such a journey? I am assuming they would have to stop to refuel/resupply at some point as well... especially before the returning journey.
(Yeah, I know it would be fastest by air but that's not what I'm asking).
A rough estimate will do as well! Thanks for your time! :)

For a company still relatively new to the smartphone space, Razer isn't afraid to mix it up with the big boys. The American-Singaporean gaming hardware company has just announced a sequel to its debut gaming phone, and it comes smack in the middle of what is the craziest month ever for smartphone releases. So far in October we've already seen LG's V40, Google's Pixel 3, and we're mere days away from Huawei's Mate 20 launch event. Then in the final week of October, Xiaomi's got the Mi Mix 3, OnePlus has its 6T, and that third new iPhone will hit stores.
So how does the Razer Phone 2 stack up against that all-star lineup? It holds its own in many areas, and dominates in two crucial areas. However, they're two areas in which the original 2017 model was already renowned.
Last year's Razer Phone was beloved by many for its 120Hz display that pumped out twice as many frames per second as other phone screens, resulting in noticeably more fluid, smooth animations; and big, front-facing stereo speakers that boasted the loudest and fullest sound in any mobile device. These two hardware features return in the 2018 iteration mostly unchanged, but they are still enough to top everything else on the market in both areas.
As I wrote about last year, 120Hz refresh rate is one of those things that you don't think you want or need until you see it, but its absence on other models quickly becomes noticeable, and it takes a while to get over not having it again.
For the most part, other phone screens have 60Hz refresh rates and we look at those screens fine; but use a Razer Phone for ten minutes and you'll almost certainly notice the difference upon switching back. In the video below, you can sort of see the difference in fluidity between the Razer Phone 2 and the new iPhone, but even then, the video doesn't tell the full story because the video was recorded at 60-frames-per-second -- it's not fast enough to actually keep up with the Razer Phone 2's display response time.
Other parts of the Razer Phone 2 got improvements that range from the welcome to the expected, and even to the boring: the new phone is now water-resistant, with an IP67 rating. This is impressive considering how much work it takes to apply water-resistant coating to a phone with such large speaker grilles. Elsewhere, the 2 also gets an expected processor bump to the Snapdragon 845. This is a chipset that was hot stuff half a year ago, but in October 2018? It's now easily overpowered by Apple's A12 and Huawei's Kirin 980.
The back of the 2 is made of glass now, instead of last year's aluminum. It's much more susceptible to collecting fingerprints, dust and grime, but it affords wireless charging and a very premium look (after a wipe-down with a cloth). The logo on the back is made of RGB lights that flash different colors. I'm not sure why gaming phones tend to feel the need to have this light -- it serves no practical use and eats up battery unnecessarily.
I only got to demo the phone in a heavily controlled environment for 30 minutes, so I can't say if the Razer Phone 2 has improved on last year's sub-par camera. I do know Razer has improved the camera app by giving it more shooting modes, and the main 12-megapixel Sony IMX sensor has a larger aperture of f/1.7, but I can't yet speak to its impact on everyday shooting.
Everything else, from RAM (8GB) to storage capacity (64GB) to display resolution (Quad HD) and size (5.7-inch) remain the same.
Fans will be happy to hear that Razer is committed to building an ecosystem around the whole Razer experience. My colleague Ewan Spence has the report on these features such as the Razer Theme Store and Cortex, which is a system to organize games on the handset.
Razer declined to release official pricing as of time of this writing, but the phone is rumored to be in the $750 range, which makes it quite a bit cheaper than what Samsung, Apple, Google and Huawei are asking for their flagships this year. This gives Razer two distinct advantages as it attempts to make its mark on this smartphone battle royale of a month: the Razer Phone 2 will probably be one of the cheaper releases this quarter, and it is easily one of the best phones you can buy for media consumption and gaming thanks to those speakers and that screen.
Stay tuned for a full review coming soon.

Speech to Text for Edward Jones 4-15-19
Below is the closed-captioning text associated with this video. Since this uses automated speech to text spelling and grammar may not be accurate.
c1 welcome back to "live at five". joined by josh and edward jones. this might be a stretch but you're going to compare earth day to finances. >> and make a connection. >> there's a couple key take aways. the main one, avoid toxic investments. avoid toxic investment environments. >> what is a toxic investment. one you made a couple years ago that hasn't worked out like you thought it would. maybe you lost money. might be time to revisit that and decide to go ahead and get rid of it. or it could be something that maybe has worked out for you for a number of years. if you moved into a different life stage, it may be time to sell that and reinvest into a new environment. >> you talk about an investment that lost money. that's losing money. >> that could be better spent somewhere elsewhere it can grow. >> what about cds? interest rates are slightly better. >> they can still be a good investment. they are part of a renewable source. wind, solar and things like that. you can have a renewable source of income. a cd, bonds, those could be really good renewable. >> i know you can cash out at a certain time or roll them over. >> right. you can draw income on those. they will pay you a set monthly annual basis. that's going to get you a renewable source of income and once it matures, you can reinvest it. you might want to put somewhere else. >> another form would be an annuity. there are lots of ideas if they are good or bad for folks. >> that is different for each individual person. if it's a good time to put into an annuity. >> let's plant seeds of opportunity there. >> absolutely. so, right there you want to talk about putting money in long-term, just like putting a seed in the ground. that way you're going to grow trees in the environment or your portfolio. >> i like putting the 401 k money in. it hurts now but if you don't do it, you're in big trouble later on.

As a black woman i'm tired…i'm tired of my femininity being equated with weakness "you punch like a girl.." "you gonna cry like a little girl…(the formula anything bad+like a girl) why is being emotional a bad thing, our innate ability to read and connect with emotions is powerful and straight from the divine. we can sense the unseen, we can feel them, we can feel the emotions of those who have long left us. we may not have the physical strength but we have the spiritual strength of the divine. why isn't that celebrated instead of berated. i'm tired of so called conscious brothers who love black women posting pictures of us naked, stretched out like some kind of sex kitten. i am more than sex and i am much more than this body. i'm tired of being viewed as the "weaker sex"; yes the weak sex that pushes the "stronger sex" out of their body, supports and stands by the "stronger sex" carrying him when he is weak, making him feel big when the world tells him he is small and loving him unconditionally.
i'm tired of the label "angry black woman" especially when it is spoken with judgement and contempt like i have nothing to be angry about, like being called, bitter, angry, desperate, ugly, bitchy, emotional, pushy, ho, trash, useless has no effect on me or my spirit. to make matters worse those words are usually spat at us by our own brothers, fathers, husbands, even mothers. why can't i be angry? yet through all of this we are still waiting on our men to come back to us and start loving us again like we have never stopped loving them.
women aren't more than men and men aren't more than women. we are equal and opposite principles that together form the most powerful. the most perfect. the most divine. we become all that is divine and perfect and powerful. the black family. nothing else is like it, i just want to get back to that and although i'm tired of waiting (on black men and women alike to realize the black woman's worth)…i won't ever stop.

Not-so-recent-snapshots: Christmas in July!
I was going through my photo archives and realized that I never posted any snapshots from our 2014 holiday season. What better time than now to post my holiday photos? It's blazing hot, we're all boiling in puddles of our own sweat as we slog around in the soupy air, so let's reflect back to chillier days for a few moments, shall we?
We went back home to PA and stayed in downtown Lancaster again for Christmas last year. It was little B's first Christmas and he had lots of fun meeting all of his cousins, opening presents, and swimming in a pool for the first time. We did some shopping at the boutiques and Lancaster Central Market, ate a some delicious restaurants, and spent time with family and friends.
And while it didn't snow outside at all when we were home this year, we saw White Christmas with some friends at the Fulton Theatre and there was some snow falling in the theatre at the end of the show. Loved it! And as always, I had our house decked out for the season.
So here they are - my photos from Christmas 2014.

Yes, it is true,
I am an addict,
Writing here,
Showcasing for all of you.
All the world may be a stage,
Hosting actors in a play,
But the canvass is my page,
I'll make the words dance today,
Believe me reader,
I've something to say.
The words dance and turn,
Up from my spirit they burn,
To share my feelings,
Is what I yearn,
Baring my soul,
Writing is my passion,
In it, losing control,
Making me feel safe,
Separating from the outside world.
I'll paint a picture,
But use no brush,
Trust in me,
I ask so much,
Words are weapons,
Or so they say,
But I won't let details,
Get in the way,
The words are mine,
The imagery yours,
Your interpretation,
Is what you choose.
So come along,
For this wild ride,
I hope to make you,
Laugh and smile,
Perhaps even cry,
But know here I stay,
Writing until my dying day,
Then hold my words,
Keep them true,
Then my legacy will be sealed,
In my writings,
Thanks to each of you.
