What's a bikini without some water to splash around and wear in? This summer as you're making your way to the water, how about choosing a bikini in a color that compliments the blue-green waters of the pool or ocean beautifully? Wearing an aqua or light green bikini when you're going for a dip is perfect! Not only are the colors great for looking good in the water, they're super summery shades! Celebs like Kim K. and Britney Spears have been seen more than once in a pretty aqua bikini, and Vanessa Hudgens was seen in the film Spring Breakers in a light green bikini. Make a splash in aqua and green luxury swimwear!
One of the prettiest colors to wear by the water is a color that matches it, aqua! Look cool and fresh in this beautiful, vibrant color. The Rich Girl bikini in mint is just what you need to look fantastic by the water. Kim Kardashian and Kelly Rowland are looking bright in their aqua suits. A designer swimwear ensemble in this color would go great on any skin tone, as Kim and Kelly show us. The Rich Girl in mint is in a youthful turquoise color, yet looks sophisticated and luxurious with its rhinestone embellishments. No doubt your summer will go swimmingly with a sexy turquoise bikini to wear!
A slightly brighter suit, the Sugar Rush bikini in jade is awesome for making a vivid color statement this summer! A bikini in this aqua hue is so nice for making a watery escape to the pool or beach since it matches the water without being too close of a match. It's brighter than the water, making you stand out! Britney Spears and Jennifer Lawrence are making their way to some waves in stunning bright turquoise bikinis. The Sugar Rush in jade is a winner for looking cute and vibrant by the water!
A fabulous color that often gets overlooked in swimwear is light, spring green. This color is unique and looks just as great as aqua for looking youthful and pool or beach-ready. The Sweet Cheeks bikini is not only in a gorgeous light green fabric, but it also features adorable flowers and a lace-up look on the bust. Vanessa Hudgens is making a cute color statement wearing a green bikini for the movie Spring Breakers. Any girl, including Vanessa, would be a darling in the Sweet Cheeks bikini. Go green or aqua in your swimwear this summer for a fresh, beachy look!

Stitch School: French Knot

Ok Ok I promise I won't throw anything anywhere! I am going to practice this tomorrow- your photos are really clear and I should be able to get to grips with this, but even just reading it was raising my stress levels!

What kind of lens do you use on your camera that you get such great close-ups? I love the face on the embroidered girl with the French knot hair!
- October 30, 2006 6:40 PM
- janet said...
I have a Canon PowerShot A80 digital camera and it has what's called a macro mode for closeups. Even I'm amazed at how well it works—very sharp details. Sometimes I still can't get as close as I'd like so I end up cropping and resizing the photos in PhotoShop. That's usually what I do for the button and trim product photos on my website—I like to get rid of as much extraneous stuff as possible to really focus on the item.
- October 31, 2006 9:52 AM
Would it be possible for you to show us a done picture then tell what stitches were used like the lady with the bonnet point to the bonnet and say blanket stitch, eyes-french knots,etc.? Thank you so much for these lessons.
- October 31, 2006 4:48 PM
- janet said...
I've been thinking about the suggestion to show a finished piece labeling the stitches and I don't think I'd be able to do it justice in the small space alloted for pictures here. I try to show lots of pictures of the finished stitches in the embroidery lesson posts, so I think you can find good examples there.

- Apron Thrift Girl said...
Yep I think this knot is the most challenging stitch out there. I finally got it after 30 minutes of reading every book in the house on stitches. And the sad thing is I didn't even know how I did it in the end. Your tutorial would have been very helpful to me a few months ago. And of course the aprons are stunning. What a wonderful price.
- November 03, 2006 1:37 AM
- Kate said...
Oh my goodness Janet! THANK YOU THANK YOU THANK YOU!!!! I've read a TON of tutorials on the French Knot and none of them ever made any difference in my lack of ability to stitch them until yours!
~a fellow stitcher~
- March 12, 2007 10:57 AM
I'm glad to see I'm not alone; this stitch stumps me like no other. But my problem is this: I think I know _how_ to do it, but I always end up with just a tiny, tiny stitch. My knot disappears and the thread goes all the way through the fabric. Consistently. I have no idea why.
- March 23, 2007 1:14 PM
- janet said...
If you don't tighten the looped threads around your needle, your main thread will slip right through them and wind up on the back. It's like you never took a stitch at all. Yet, if it's too tight, the thread won't go through the loops, and it could pull the whole knot (loops and all) through to the back. The tension is the thing and that's where pulling the thread with your left hand or holding it down with your thumb helps.

- joy said...
wow thanks, your instructions + plctures helped me a lot! I've been stressing out on the french knots i'm supposed to make for a project i'm working on...and i was able to finally do it after reading this!
- April 20, 2007 2:56 PM
Thanks a lot for that description. You are the first one who really described this the easy way. And I read lots of descriptions for that %*^*^ stitch. Even I'm an experienced cross stitcher I had always troubles with the French Knot. It worked out SOMETIMES, most times it resulted in a flat line with the knot disappearing. Result was that I used beads instead of French Knot. After reading your lesson I realized I was holding the needle wrong direction. I just exercised and none of my french knots went wrong. I really want to thank you for that.
- October 06, 2007 10:51 PM
Brilliant description and photos. I was afraid to even attempt and now, ten minutes later, I'm a pro! Thanks much!
- October 21, 2007 2:00 PM
wow - you explain so well and the photos are so helpful! i found your blog through a scrapbooking message board. i will be visiting again!!
thanks, angie
- November 01, 2007 4:04 PM
- Debbie said...
I have never been able to make a good French knot because I was holding the needle vertical to the fabric, which is the way I've always seen it pictured. Now that you've shown me the right way, I'm making gorgeous ones! Thank you, thank you, thank you so much!

Hi Janet,
OK, I'm left-handed. Do I just 'flop' the French Knot photographs and instructions?
- March 05, 2008 10:44 AM
- janet said...
Hey, anonymous! I didn't know the answer to your question, so I did a post today (3.5.08) asking for opinions from my readers. Five comments so far and all say to just flop the pics and directions. If that's too confusing and you plan on doing a lot of embroidery in the future I'd suggest getting a book specifically for left-handed embroiderers. It's always good to have something to refer back to.
- March 05, 2008 9:27 PM
Hello! I just wanted to tell you that I have just recently started embroidery and have a book that I use but could not do the french knot at all. I looked it up and your blog showed up and right after I read your instructions, I did it! Just wanted to say thanks so much! I explored your blog and read your whole Stitch School series, love it!
- March 07, 2008 11:44 PM
thank you so much for all this help! i could not do that f**+ french knot (dreaded is really not the word for it, sorry...), but now I'm perfect in it! Thank you so much, again!

I just love you blog!! I am a quilter and opening a shop in my cabin...I will have around 300 bolts with reproduction and vintage my focus, but I want to offer retreats and your blog inspired me to also offer hand embroidery retreats too!

Hi, I was having such a hard time with my French knots. I'm trying to finish a project for my pastor's wife. Your pictures and explanation were so helpful. After one knot I was doing French knots like a pro.
Thanks so much for the awesome pictures and explanation.
- March 27, 2008 1:45 PM
I am a knitter and some of my projects call from embroidered detail. Unfortunately the instructions for the embroidery aren't usually detailed. I spent a bit of frustrating time (about 10 unsuccessful attempts) trying to do a french knot from 2 pictures with my knitting pattern before finding your pictures and instructions. After reading your steps my first one was (almost) picture perfect! Thank you!
- April 19, 2008 1:49 PM
- Snitterdog said...
I have to try this! :)...I can do satin stitch, but I'm just not sure on that French knot! :)...thanks for the tutorial! :)
- April 27, 2008 2:09 AM
Wow, thats all I can say. I have cross stitched for years and thought I would never conquer these knots. Well guess what, thanks to your great pictures and descriptions I have made 30 of them for this project!! Thanks so much and keep up the great lessons, I know I will be referring to them alot.

- clairephotography said...
I'm a very novice crafter you name it I'm new to it! But I've found this blog on all the stiches so easy to follow, it's permanently bookmarked on my computer! I see by the comments that the French Knot is very difficult but I'd already followed the instructions and easily and successfully made a perfect French Knot first time! I'm sure it has absolutely nothing to do with me and it's all due to these exceptional instructions! Thank you!
- July 05, 2008 10:17 AM
Thanks so much for this explanation!I'm jusst beginning to teach myself how to craft & embroider & the book I got made french knots seem so simple! I'm glad other people are finding it hard too because I thought it was just me! Now with your explanation I can do them no problem!^_^

- Leslie said...
This is great!! These are the first instructions I actually understood. My knots are turning out great. Thank you so much!!
- September 22, 2008 10:53 AM
right, this might sound dumb... but does anyone know what floss is?
im stitchin this pattern i printed and it says use floss..?! is that like thicker thread? like embroidery thread?? i have no idea. im such a novice. ;P
- September 25, 2008 6:28 PM
- janet said...
Floss is simply another name for embroidery thread. I talk about it in the Embroidery Basics post:
- September 25, 2008 6:50 PM
THANK YOU! I've looked everywhere for instructions on how to make French Knots, and this is the best tutorial yet! In the end, it only took a few minutes for me to get the hang of it (even though it was filled with mistakes, i got the feel). Thanks again!
- September 26, 2008 2:40 AM
- Bethany said...
this is the first time ive tried french knots and i dont know if it was the tutorial but i found it really easy
- October 05, 2008 2:14 PM
thank you for the clear instructions on the french knot. I have struggled with illustrations in books and couldn't figure it out. your description and pictures are awesome. Thank you!
- October 05, 2008 7:40 PM
- Janet said...
From one Janet (in Australia) to another ..... I can't believe how dumb I've been!!! I have been cross stitching for years and you can always get away with using beads instead of doing French knots and they also give a great 3D look. But I have recently discovered the evils of patchwork and quilting. (If you think they aren't evil, just check out how much money it costs me constantly buying fabric that tells me I just need to take it home!) From there it was just a short step to stitcheries. While most of the time I have been able to get away with using either a cross stitch or just completely ignoring the French knot, I knew that I couldn't keep doing that forever. I have a HUGE amount of books showing me how to do this knot but none have shown in such detail as you have.
I also know I'm dumb because I constantly tell people that the internet is the greatest library on earth ..... and then failed to use it myself. I now will just have to try your style of knot and I'm sure I will be Frenching in no time.
Thank you so much for restoring part of my brain.

- Mary said...
i know this is an old post but i'm soooooo glad i found it. thank you, thank you, thank you. I can finally do a french knot thanks to your instructions. Now i don't have to take all my projects that are waiting for french knots to my sister.
- November 22, 2008 10:51 AM
YES! I have been trying to do this stitch for a long time. I gave up several times and kept coming back. Very frustrating! Then I found your tutorial and I was able to do it on my first try (using your instructions). THANK YOU SO MUCH :)
- November 29, 2008 11:15 PM
- Ani said...
thank you, thank you. i've always avoided making these but this tutorial allowed me to make a nice set of eyes for a knitted kitty i was working on. :)
- December 21, 2008 12:26 AM
thank u for ur help. now i can make french knots
- January 19, 2009 4:12 PM
- oldpoetsoul said...
Thank you so much! I've been so frustrated trying to do the french knot--I used to do it when I was a kid, but forgot how! I used your directions and was immediately able to do it once again. For those other lefties, yes, just reverse the directions--pull thread to the front, hold thread to the right of the emergent point with your right hand, and wrap the thread around the needle at the point where it emerges from the fabric. Drop the tip a few threads away from the place where it originated and viola! It worked great for me! Thanks!

- Kiki said...
Thank You! I having been going nuts trying to figure out how to make a french knot, thanks to you I now know how!!!
- March 03, 2009 1:49 PM
Thanks for the excellent instructions. I am using French knots to keep the two layers of a baby blanket from shifting. Many sites attempt to show the French knot but no one shows how to finish one French knot when both sides of the project will be seen. Could you help, PLEASE!!!
Thx. Barbara
- April 27, 2009 7:23 PM
- hui said...
Hey, can i do this knot with a normal cotton thread? Or must I use yarns or thick threads?
- April 27, 2009 11:13 PM
- janet said...
Well, sewing thread would make very small knots but yes, you can use almost anything with a uniform thickness. All of the examples I've shown were done with embroidery floss. If they look like yarn it's only because the photos are extreme close ups.
- April 28, 2009 6:27 AM
- janet said...
Barbara, I need to think about it for a bit. Are you wanting knots on both sides of the blanket?
- April 28, 2009 10:25 AM

Your embroidery tutorials are simple to follow. I used to embroider as a child but have not for some years. Following your tutorials I am able to pick right back up and breeze right through! Thank you!

Furious. That is what these knots make me. Absolutely bloody mad.
- June 19, 2009 11:23 AM
thanks so much! i've never been able to do that before - and as a crocheter, i've never really had a need until i started the boy's dino sweater from red heart. the eye of the dinosaur is a french knot, and it looks great! much larger, i'm sure, than yours - what with the sport weight yarn instead of thread - but it worked! yay!!!
- July 20, 2009 4:27 PM
- Kim in the Kitchen said...
Thank you so much for showing and explaining the mysteries of the French Knot much better than the drawings in the cross-stitch pattern I'm using! It's really not that hard after all!
- August 08, 2009 2:21 AM
- Violet said...
Ah! The French Knot was what made me QUIT embroidery (before I even properly started. ) I was SO scared of it. But today I decided to tackle it and because of YOU, I succeeded! THank you SO MUCH. I just made the cutest eye ever. :)
- August 25, 2009 6:56 PM
Thank you so much for such a helpful tutorial. I have tried others before but have failed to master it time and again. I found your site and tried it and success on the first try!
- August 29, 2009 12:06 PM
This stitch wuz so hard but i finally got the hang of it and when i did i wuz soooooo suprised and i kept thinking what i had dun rong!!
- October 19, 2009 12:59 PM
- Kaye Prince said...
Thanks so much for your wonderful tutorial! I just found it by searching Google - I've been trying to learn using various tutorials and nothing seemed to work. I got it using your tutorial on the first try! Thanks again!
- November 11, 2009 12:34 PM
I follow the rules and pull the thread taut against the fabric, and the loops against the needle, as I'm pulling the needle through the hole a few threads away... but I get a decent knot -- and a big loop of thread sticking out from it =( What do I do?
- December 26, 2009 10:48 PM
- janet said...
TDC, it's hard for me to tell where in the process you're going wrong without seeing you do it. Teaching in person would help with that :)
It sounds like you aren't pulling the knot tight right at the end but I'm not sure. All I can say is to slowly go through the steps again and keep practicing. It feels very awkward until you've done it for a while.

The Northwest Tattoo Museum is a project that was started almost two years ago when in a conversation it was suggested that there needs to be a tattoo museum in the Northwestern US. In answer to this call myself (a longtime tattoo artist of 24 years at the time) and avid hoarder of everything tattoo, and my fiancé Jennifer DeRose, who is an anthropologist/archaeologist decided to take on the challenge. I then dug out my collection of tattoo machines, old flash and other stuff I had piled up over the years while Jennifer started building the database for the museum's collection…
The next step was converting my tattoo studio in Moscow, Idaho (the home of the University of Idaho) into the Northwest Tattoo Museum. I took down all the new flash, and started adding old flash sheets from my collection along with business cards, flyers and acetate stencils; I started framing and filling every space I could. When the place started looking presentable, I declared the opening of the museum. Shortly after Mike Pike made the first donation, the machine he made that was in the first handmade tattoo machine book. After that, I told my friends across the country about the museum and the donations started coming in.
Other Northwest tattooers contributed to the museum by loaning items to the museum from their collections for the museum to display. With this going on and my insatiable urge to continue to buy or trade for anything and everything old and tattoo related, the museum's collection continues to grow. Since the beginning we have filled the shop in Moscow, and are now getting ready to open a Museum Shop in Coeur d'Alene, ID because the museum has outgrown its original home, and I have recently relocated to there, leaving the original location open.
In February of this year I took the museum out on the road for the first time in small-scale at the Ink Travelers Convention in Vancouver, WA. Then in April I took it to the 33rd National Tattoo Association Convention in Cincinnati, OH where I was joined by Buddy Wheeler of Tattoo Charlie's Tattoo Museum in Louisville, KY. In July we moved the overflow to Coeur d'Alene and started recording the items in the database. In September we were back out on the road when we took the museum to a convention here in the northwest the Three Rivers Tattoo Convention in Kennewick, WA. And most recently, ending out our year traveling before settling into a new home, we did the Alliance of Professional Tattooists Trade Show at the Golden Nugget Casino in Las Vegas.
Our goal with the museum is to preserve and display the history of electric tattooing, and try to preserve the history of tattooing within the Northwestern United States, which we have deemed at this point, Oregon, Washington, Idaho, Montana, and Utah. We also have and collect items from all over the world.
The museum houses items from the 1910s to present day, and has a wide spectrum of items including tattoo machines, tattoo flash, tattoo signs, acetate and celluloid stencils, sketches, business cards, catalogues, Kobel photos, old tattoo photos; if it has anything to do with tattooing, we collect it. We house items from Amund Deitzel, Fred Marquand, Bert Grimm, Paul Rogers, Bob Shaw, Sailor Jerry Collins, Percy Waters, Owen Jensen, Milton Zeis, the Chicago Tattoo Supply House, Bill Jones and many more.
The museum is free of charge to the public and tattoo artists are always welcome. We have a spot for guest artists with 20 years experience or more, as a working exhibit and a way to get some of those great old tattoo stories. We plan to work with other tattoo museums in the future and hopefully have guest exhibits throughout the year. The museum will also offer machine restoration as a service to those who want to bring their old machine back to its original condition. Also we provide appraisal of items, as well as sales.
The Northwest Tattoo Museum, you could say, is my passion and love for the history of this great craft and the culmination of my lifetime of plying the trade, in one form or another whether it tattooing, building machines, or writing articles. The museum has definitely been a project that has been paying off, well not in money, this year at the A.P.T. Trade Show I was given the Lifetime Achievement Award, much in part I believe for the work I have done on the museum project these last two-plus years. There is a whole lot more to come, we literally have items waiting for donation because we don't have room, and that's good. The more we have, the more we are able to bring to the tattooists and fans of the art of electric tattooing here in the Northwest.
The museum is a labor of love, and if funded solely out of our pocket right now, so we always accept contributions and donations of old tattoo items, so if you have some old flash or machines or stencils or whatnot that are just sitting in a drawer or a box, and you'd like to see them see the light of day, be appreciated and help educate others as well as preserve tattoo history, we are always looking for items. And anything you donate is tax-deductible and will have a good home. We also take items on loan, Jennifer, who is a professional curator, has all the proper paperwork to make something like that happen if you want to see something you have in the museum, but want to retain ownership, our goal is to serve the craft by providing a database and a physical place for people to come and see part of our great history of electric tattooing and beyond. We also, as funds allow, will purchase vintage and antique tattoo items.
So as 2012 comes to a close, we start to ready the new location in Coeur d'Alene for the Northwest Tattoo Museum, plans for our Grand Opening are in January of 2013, as long as the Mayans aren't right… There'll be info on the opening as it gets closer… the original Moscow, ID location will be still be open and you can follow what's happing with the museum on Facebook at: https://www.facebook.com/#!/groups/222031604576583/.

The act of a scrubby baseball player;who swings at every pitch, gets lucky and hits the ball on the sweet spot on the bat, the ball goes far and the player's face becomes awestruck.
When the scrub came to bat in the bottom of the ninth-inning, the opposition was happy since he was 0-4 for the game and he was batting a buck with change for the season. With a 0-2 count the pitcher throws him a curveball low and away the batter swings, he practically comes out of his shoes, and the ball finds the sweetspot of the bat and it travel over the fence for a walk-off home-run. Distraught after what just happened the only thing the losing team could say was "that was a BITCH-SWING.

March 13, 2012
By -, -
KANSAS CITY, Mo. – Brooke Thomas of Union (Tenn.) has been tabbed as the NAIA National Softball Pitcher of the Week and Jordan Reynolds of Olivet Nazarene (Ill.) has been named the NAIA National Softball Player of the Week, the national office announced Tuesday. Thomas and Reynolds are the first honorees of the 2012 season. The pair was chosen, based on their performances from March 5 – 11 out of a pool of conference player of the week selections among 24 conference/independent/unaffiliated groupings.
Thomas, a Huntingdon, Tenn., native, gave up just one earned run in her three starts over the last week. In 21 innings of work the 5-foot-5 junior allowed only 10 hits, two walks and struck out 25 batters while earning victories in all three outings. She recorded back-to-back wins over ranked opponents on consecutive days when she topped No. 21 Columbia (Mo.) on March 9 and then shut out No. 24 Saint Xavier (Ill.) on March 10. She went the complete seven innings and struck out nine in both contests.
Thomas ranks among the nation's elite in several major categories, including fifth in strike outs (94), 14th in wins (8), 18th in innings pitched (69.1) and 23rd in opponents' batting average (.156).
Reynolds, a Metamora, Ill., native, hit a scorching .617 (29-for-47) in a busy week in which she played shortstop in all 12 of the team's games and led the Tigers to an 11-1 record. For the week, Reynolds also tallied one home run, 12 RBI, nine doubles, 21 runs and went 12-for-12 on stolen base attempts. The 5-foot-7 senior collected at least two hits in nine games, including a six-hit game against Viterbo (Wis.) on March 7 and a five-hit outburst versus Iowa Wesleyan on that same day, making her 11-for-11 on the day.
Reynolds ranks near the top nationally in a multitude of statistical categories, including second in triples (4), fourth in stolen bases (16), 14th in batting average (.547) and 19th in runs scored (24).

Bonita's beaches
May 28, 2009
Lovers Key Voted one of the top 10 parks in Florida and ranking as the state's No. 4 park with the Travel Channel, the Lovers Key/Carl Johnson State Park area is a beach that cannot be missed. With groups of mangrove islands and sugar-white sand beaches bordering the Gulf of Mexico, Lover's Key offers peace and sanctity from the hectic noises of the city life. From Black Island, at Big Carlos Pass in the north, to the county-owned public beach in the south, this narrow strip of islands offers a look at natural Florida at its finest. For sun-and-sand lovers who occasionally need to take a dip in the Gulf, there are plenty of beach accesses and pristine stretches of sand where your only company may be a flock of sandpipers dodging the surf as they fish for supper. Bald eagles and pelicans, plus herons, egrets and ospreys also call Lover's Key home. A tram to the beach runs every few minutes. On the Estero Bay side of the park, Lovers Key also offers picnic tables under gazebos, barbecue grills and a playground that has plenty of opportunity for youngsters to climb, swing and slide along with canoeing, kayaking and eco-tours for the whole family. For boaters, the Key has a boat launch ramp with a concession that sells delicacies any fish will jump for. Kayak and bike rentals, as well as fishing supplies and snacks, are available at the stand. Other amenities include rest rooms, rinse-off showers, a boat ramp and picnic areas. Entrance fees are $2 for one person in a vehicle, $4 for 2 to 8 people in a vehicle, more than 8 in a vehicle costs an additional $1 per person; walk-ins and bicycles are $1 per person. The park is open 8 a.m. to sunset daily. Call 463-4588. Dog Beach Looking for a place for the pooches? Four-legged canine members of the family also have their recreation area to frolic in the surf without a leash, too. Dog Beach is located on the Gulf side of New Pass, right next to Bonita Beach - and the acre of Gulf front is pure puppy heaven. Don't forget to bring the pup's favorite toys and plenty of drinking water. Also, bring plenty of towels for when the wet-furred vacationer gets back in the car. Little Hickory Island/Barefoot Beach Preserve County Park Heading south through Lovers Key State Park and the island of Bonita Beach, there is another little-known hidden beach gem off of the well-traveled Bonita Beach Road. Park entry fee is $3. Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Recreation Area Heading south from Bonita Beach Road on Vanderbilt Road and making a right onto Bluebill Avenue brings visitors to the Delnor-Wiggins Pass State Recreation Area, a natural barrier island, thick with mangroves and native vegetation vital to wildlife. This is definitely a place one can see what the ancient Calusa Indians saw as they fished the pass, hunted and gathered wild plants. Whether lounging on the beach, strolling in the shallows, going for a brisk bicycle ride or surf-casting and sailing in the shallows, Delnor-Wiggins Pass has something for everyone. After the fun in the sun, just cool off in the showers, visit the concession for some refreshment and go home to show off the day in the tropics.

December 2012, Nay Pyi Taw, Republic of the Union of Myanmar – With over 1 000 meetings per year, the chair of ASEAN in 2014 is a critical challenge for regional diplomacy in Myanmar. The support of UNITAR and its expertise in the field of diplomatic training has allowed for junior diplomats and officials from different ministries to have a better overview of future challenges for the year 2014.
The workshop, jointly organized by UNITAR's International Law Programme and Multilateral Diplomacy Programme as well as the training department of Myanmar's Ministry of Foreign Affairs, took place over a period of one week in the Myanmar capital Nay Pyi Taw, thanks to the support of Total E&P Myanmar. The diverse profiles of the 34 participants – of which 17 were male and 17 female – demonstrated the importance of this training for the Government. Three high-level resource persons provided training sessions in the areas of conference diplomacy, ASEAN diplomacy and diplomatic protocol; allowing officials to attain a comprehensive overview of the tasks they may encounter during ASEAN meetings which will be held in 2014.
Junior officials – half of which were from the Ministry of Foreign Affairs – familiarized themselves with the rules of conference diplomacy and were able to benefit from the experience of Miguel Bautista, a Filipino diplomat seconded to the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development (UNCTAD). His knowledge and experience on multilateral conferences were complemented by the expertise of Pratap Parameswaran, an accredited diplomat to the political division of the ASEAN Secretariat. The decision-making process, issues of ASEAN regional diplomacy as well as the different levels of meetings held during the presidency enabled participants to better understand the impact the ASEAN chairmanship will have on their daily tasks.
Practical simulation exercises as well as concrete logistic discussions required to organize the summit have promoted interactions and exchanges between representatives of different ministries. Protocol matters which were raised by Alice Hecht, former head of the UN Protocol Department, were of particular interest to junior officials. However, as the trainer frequently pointed out, the purpose of the workshop was not to provide participants with ready-made solutions, but rather to familiarize them with situations in which they can improvise.
During the 2014 ASEAN chairmanship, junior officials will primarily work with the support of senior diplomats who will be directly involved in negotiations. A second training session organized by UNITAR will be held in February 2013 in order to prepare senior diplomats for the chairmanship of meetings, the negotiation and adoption of texts and the management of national delegations.

Plenty of new moms worry about losing the baby weight once Junior arrives, but not Jessica Simpson. The singer and fiancé Eric Johnson won't welcome their bundle of joy until the spring, but the New York Post reports the star, whose weight has been the subject of tabloid gossip in recent years, has already signed an estimated $3 million deal with Weight Watchers to help slim down after the birth.
Plus: 10 Fun Exercises to Do With Your Baby
While many moms hang up their favorite pair of pre-baby jeans as incentive to shed pounds after they get into a routine with baby, obviously very few have this kind of huge carrot dangling on a stick. Either way, kudos to Simpson for planning to lose the baby weight in a healthy way (Weight Watchers was recently ranked the number-one weight-loss diet by U.S. News & World Report, and offers special accommodations for breastfeeding mamas).
Moms, were you able to lose the baby weight? If so, how long did it take you?

As much as I dislike Unity, I commend the Ubuntu team and Shuttleworth for having the guts to try to innovate and bring the desktop forward (pretty much the exact same can be said of KDE4 and GNOME3). Shuttleworth has just announced yet another significant change for Ubuntu, and it's all about replacing the menu with a search interface dubbed the HUD.

Very interested to see whether this sinks or swims. I use ratpoison as my wm w/ Pentadactyl extension for FF, which makes my machine completely keyboard operable, so I'm an extreme part of the demographic. Still, I bet others would adopt it if it's implemented correctly. (I foresee menus disappearing but toolbars and keyboard shortcuts remaining.)
RE: Awesome!
My computing habits are similar to yours (tiling wm, vimprobable/uzbl...etc) but I don't really know what to think of this yet.
Chapter III: Accessibility seemed like it made some sense. The Banshee and Inkscape bits looked clunky and a tad jarring.
Looks like a dmenu for the Unity interface. No idea whether that's a good or bad thing (I don't use Ubuntu or Unity).

Corsair TX750 V2 750W & TX850 V2 850W Power Supply Review
Founded as Corsair Microsystems in 1994, Corsair originally developed level 2 cache modules for OEMs. The release of Intel's Pentium Pro processor with built in cache memory led Corsair to change their focus to DRAM modules. In 2002 Corsair began shipping memory modules specifically with the enthusiast in mind and today their high performance memory modules are probably the product that most enthusiasts associate with Corsair. Corsair has expanded its product range to now include power supplies, computer enclosures, processor coolers, solid state drives and other key system components.
The Corsair TX650, TX750 and TX850 power supplies have now been around for some time and I guess rather than discontinue what has proved to be a very successful product Corsair have decided to keep the model going a little longer and offer a few improvements with the V2 units. This time around OCC will take a look at two power supplies from the V2 range, the TX750V2 and TX850V2 power supplies and see just what improvements, if any, Corsair have made.
Closer Look:
The Corsair TX750V2 and TX850V2 boxes, with their yellow, black and white theme, are basically the same apart from model numbers and technical specification. The top face of the box shows a photograph of the cooling fan side of the power supply along with model number, Corsair logo and a small box in the top right hand corner showing it's a V2 unit.
The bottom face of the box carries all the technical information including connector types and quantities (with photographs), the main features in five different languages, fan noise and efficiency graphs and specification tables.
The front face of the box shows the model number and V2, a further list of features in five different languages with a five year and 80 Plus Bronze logo.
Model number and V2, a photograph of the fan grill, more features, again in five different languages and conformance marks on the rear face.
The box comes with identical end panels that carry the same photograph as the rear face with the model number and V2 once again displayed.
Both power supplies are contained in a further brown cardboard box bearing the Corsair logo.
Lift the lid and both power supplies are identically packed. The instruction manual which covers the TX650, TX750 and TX850 sits on top of the foam protected power supply. Removal of the top foam cover reveals a black drawstring bag enclosed power supply with the cables, power cord and accessories neatly stored down the side.
The black drawstring bag with Corsair logo along with the full box contents which includes the power cord, user manual, cable ties, case badge and power supply mounting screws.
The Corsair TX750V2 and TX850V2 power supplies are well packaged with a good set of accessories so let's move on and have a closer look.

vmsish - Perl pragma to control VMS-specific language features
use vmsish;
use vmsish 'status'; # or '$?'
use vmsish 'exit';
use vmsish 'time';
use vmsish 'hushed';
use vmsish;
no vmsish 'time';
If no import list is supplied, all possible VMS-specific features are assumed. Currently, there are four VMS-specific features available: 'status' (a.k.a '$?'), 'exit', 'time' and 'hushed'.
vmsish status
This makes
systemreturn the native VMS exit status instead of emulating the POSIX exit status.
vmsish exit
This makes
exit 1produce a successful exit (with status SS$_NORMAL), instead of emulating UNIX exit(), which considers
exit 1to indicate an error. As with the CRTL's exit() function,
exit 0is also mapped to an exit status of SS$_NORMAL, and any other argument to exit() is used directly as Perl's exit status.
vmsish time
This makes all times relative to the local time zone, instead of the default of Universal Time (a.k.a Greenwich Mean Time, or GMT).
vmsish hushed
This supresses printing of VMS status messages to SYS$OUTPUT and SYS$ERROR if Perl terminates with an error status. This primarily effects error exits from things like compiler errors or "standard Perl" runtime errors, where text error messages are also generated by Perl.
The error exits from inside VMS.C are generally more serious, and are not supressed.
See "Pragmatic Modules" in perlmod.

CFP: [Cultural-Historical] Literature, Art and Culture in an Age of Global Risk
CALL FOR PAPERS: Literature, Art and Culture in an Age of Global Risk
An International, Interdisciplinary Conference
Cardiff University, UK
Thursday 2â€"Friday 3 July 2009
Keynote Speakers:
Prof. Imre Szemán (McMaster University, Canada)
Dr Charlie Gere (Lancaster University, UK)
What are the cultural implications of living under conditions of global,
manufactured risk?
In the twentieth century, the possibility arose for the first time that a
crisis of planetary proportions might result from human activities. By the
early decades of the century, global economic and financial interdependence
was such that a crisis unfolding in one location could radiate outwards to
destabilize the entire socio-economic world-system. Through the twentieth
century and into the twenty-first, the risk of pandemic upheaval has been
heightened by an array of phenomena: the expansion and acceleration of
media and telecommunications networks; the integration of financial markets
and the instantaneous ramification of market fluctuations via programme
trading; nuclear proliferation; international terrorism; rapid population
growth; unsustainable consumption of natural resources; overload of
electricity grids, leading to cascading power failures; pollution of the
ecosphere and resulting climate change; computer viruses and
"cyber-warfareâ€; genetic engineering; cloning; nanotechnology; artificial
intelligence; bioweaponry; the emergence and rapid spread of new strains of
infectious disease; and the development of antibiotic-resistant pathogens.
Scholars speak of "systemic risk†(Anthony Giddens), "simultaneous crisis
formation†(David Harvey), a "general disaster†(Brian Massumi), "worst
imaginable accidents†(Ulrich Beck), "total risk of catastrophe†(François
Ewald), "global†or "integral†accidents (Paul Virilio), "global
catastrophic risks†(Nick Bostrom and Milan Ćirković), and "modernist
events†â€" "events which not only could not possibly have occurred before
the twentieth century but the nature, scope, and implications of which no
prior age could even have imagined†(Hayden White).
Such occurrences hover indeterminably somewhere between the possible, the
probable, and the inevitable. This conference will explore how writers,
artists, filmmakers, dramatists, philosophers, and critical and cultural
theorists have responded to the prospect and reality of global crisis.
Moreover, it will ask how the methodologies of textual and cultural
criticism might offer new insights into our age of global risk.
Topics might include, but are by no means limited to:
-Notions of futurity, messianism, and the à venir ("to comeâ€)
-Modernism and the first era of globalization
-Figurations of the contemporary, postmodern, or technological sublime
-The alteration and/or realization of textual meanings in the wake of
catastrophic events
-Connections between conditions of global risk and the aesthetic or
intellectual 'risks' taken by experimental artists and thinkers
-Disaster films
-Ecocriticism and climate change
-Future ruins
-The fate of the archive
-"Nuclear Criticism†and its possible revival post-9/11
-(Post-)apocalyptic visions
-Cyberculture and utopian/dystopian futures
-The cultural implications of Kondratiev waves and world-systems theory

Where Does Data in AutoCAD Drawings Come From?
Today we're featuring a guest post from Tripp Corbin of Keck & Wood. Keck & Wood is a GeoSpatial Training Services business partner, and Tripp and his team created the instructor led and e-learning course "Using AutoCAD Data in ArcGIS". This course explains the .dwg format and how it can be integrated into standard ESRI data formats such as shapefiles and geodatabases.
Like GIS data, AutoCAD data can be created in a number of ways and accuracies. There is a general assumption that data created by Engineers and surveyors is always extremely accurate. This is not always the case. The accuracy will depend on the methods used to collect the information found in the drawing. The most common methods for data collection include:
• Land Surveys (Conventional, GPS, Station & Offset)
• Using Existing Drawings
• Importing from a GIS
• Digitizing (Tablet and Heads-up)
Each of these methods have varying degrees of accuracy. As with any data you might want to integrate into your GIS, it is import to know how the drawing you are working with was created. Let's look more closely at some of these methods engineers use to collect data.
Land Surveys are one of the most common ways data is collected for AutoCAD drawings. Engineers and other professionals use land surveys because they capture the current real world conditions for the area related to their project. There are many methods that can be used by Surveyors to collect data. The three basic types of surveys are:
1. Conventional (Transit, Levels, Total Stations)
3. Station and Offset
Each of these methods have different levels of accuracy as well as pros and cons.
Conventional Surveys
Conventional land surveys are what most people think of when you mention surveying. This is the person standing on the side of the road using an instrument such as a transit, level or Electronic Total Station (see picture above). Such surveys generally produce very accurate relative data. This means the distances and angles between the various features collected are extremely accurate. However this information is not normally tied to a specific geographic location. Instead it is collected in a local or assumed coordinate system.
It is not impossible to tie a survey done with conventional means to a true geographic location. If a control point or monument is near by a surveyor can use it to georeference his survey data. Many locations have laws that will actually require surveyors to do this. The problem is that there are not normally any control points or monuments near by for surveyors to use and those that have been set by agencies such as the USGS have been damaged or destroyed. This means a surveyor would have to traverse a long distance to locate one of these monuments.
New technology such as combined electronic distance meters and theodolites (commonly called Total Stations) have made conventional surveys much easier and less labor intensive. Conventional methods can also be mixed with newer technologies such as GPS to further reduce cost, improve accuracy and georeference data.
GPS Surveys
GPS has opened up a whole new way to easily collect georeferenced data. Unfortunately many users do not understand how GPS works or its limitations. A GPS unit purchased at a big super store for $100 does not have the same ability as one purchased from a surveying equipment vendor for $20,000. What a lot of people do not understand is that GPS equipment comes in various grades and prices depending on its capabilities.
There are three general grades of GPS equipment, each with different capabilities and levels of accuracy. The first is recreational grade. These units cost anywhere from $100 to $1,000 depending on the bells and whistles. They have a horizontal accuracy typically around plus of minus 10 meters. Some of the high end models can achieve a 2 meter accuracy. The next grade is GIS/Mapping. These units are capable of sub-meter horizontal accuracy plus they can also be used to record user defined attributes about the items being located. The highest grade of GPS equipment is survey grade. These units have a sub-centimeter horizontal accuracy in addition to having many of the attribute collection capability associated with the GIS grade.
Regardless of the grade these units share some common short comings. First their vertical accuracy is not always very good. In general a GPS units' vertical accuracy is 1.5 to 2 times its horizontal accuracy. This means survey grade equipment is the only one that can record reliable elevation data. Second, since these units rely on satellites in the sky anything that blocks the sky can adversely impact the ability of GPS to record a location. This can include trees, buildings, bridges, and people. Weather and other atmospheric conditions such as sun spots can affect the reliability and accuracy of GPS data.
Station and Offset Surveys
This method is most commonly used for studies, utility relocation or preliminary roadway design. The Station and Offset method is a quick and easy method to locate objects as they relate to an existing road. This method consists of someone measuring a distance down the centerline or edge of pavement of a road normally starting from an intersection. Once they are approximately perpendicular to the road and the object to be located, they will record that distance as a station in the format of hundreds + tens of feet (i.e. 2+57.06 = 257.06 feet). Once they record the station, they then measure the offset from the station to the object being located recording not only the distance but also the side of the road the object is on. A measuring wheel or a tape is the most common tools used to take these measures. This is the least accurate method of surveying.
Other methods of data collection:
Just as we do in GIS, Engineers and Surveyors will often use existing data to start a project. This is especially for preliminary design phase of their projects. This existing data includes existing engineering drawings, survey plats, hardcopy maps, aerial photos or GIS data. This data is imported in to their current project using many of the same methods we use in GIS such as heads-up digitizing, raster to vector conversion, or doing a direct import. Because all of these methods make use of existing data, the accuracy of such information varies greatly. If you, the GIS professional, want to make use of this information you must learn as much as possible about how the drawing was created. The more information you have the easier it will be for you to decide how to integrate the drawing into your GIS.
As you can see not all CAD data is created equal no more so than all GIS data is equal. In order to effectively use CAD data in a GIS, you must know as much as possible about how the CAD data was created. It should be treated like any other piece of information you intend to add to your database. Keck & Wood, Inc. in partnership with Geospatial Training Services, LLC has released both an instructor led and e-learning class entitled Using AutoCAD data in ArcGIS that covers how to integrate AutoCAD data into a GIS database in much greater detail.

A silver Colonial Massachusetts coin from 1652 that was found in a potato field has been auctioned for $430,000.
Newsday (http://bit.ly/XI1XCN) reports that an East Hampton, N.Y., woman found the coin 23 years ago with a metal detector.
It garnered four times as much as auction officials expected. It was sold last week at the Colonial Coin Collectors Club in Baltimore.
The coin is one of eight known to exist.
It was first auctioned in 1992 by Lillian King and sold to an auction house for $35,200. The man who ended up buying the coin from the auction house resold it last week for the large sum.
King tells the newspaper that she wishes she had waited to sell the coin.

History, spirit and whimsy combine in 'Between the Lines'University of Hawaiʻi at Mānoa
Director of Publicity, Kennedy Theatre
Kennedy Theatre Box Office, (808) 956-7655
The Department of Theatre and Dance at the University of Hawai'i at Mānoa is proud to present "Behind The Lines," the Spring installment of the department's "Footholds" series, as the final production of Kennedy Theatre's 2013-2014 50th Anniversary Season. This diverse production brings together student dancers, choreographers, technicians and designers to showcase new choreography by its graduate and undergraduate dance students. The program will be performed at the Earle Ernst Lab Theatre on April 23, 24, 25 and 26 at 8 p.m., and Sunday, April 27, at 2 p.m. A post-show discussion will follow the performance on Friday, April 25.
"Between the Lines" will feature the works of seniors Chelsea Van Billiard and Devon Izumigawa, who will present their senior projects for the BFA degree. Van Billiard's dance, "Shaping Ground," was influenced by the new movement vocabulary that she learned during her recent semester abroad at the London Contemporary Dance School. The piece's dynamic range of movement will showcase the dancers' strength and endurance. Izumigawa's Chinese dance training is evident in his work "Blades Over Hearts," an abstract reflection of Chinese people's struggles at the end of the Tang Dynasty. Izumigawa choreography utilizes complex spatial patterns, martial choreography and swordplay to communicate his vision.
A wide range of influences inspired the dance presented in the concert. Graduate student Megan Brennan will present Odissi classical dance with her piece "Batu," conceived as a dance offering to one of the 64 aspects of the Hindu god Shiva. The piece begins with Brennan depicting instruments such as the lute, drum and cymbals. Faith Im describes her composition "Still" as "a prayer for peace," and notes that it was inspired by Susanna Majuri's digital art piece, "Gravity."
"Between the Lines" will also feature light-hearted fare. Graduate student Mitsuko Horikawa continues in the whimsical vein of "The Wild Chase," which she presented in the February "Winter Footholds" concert. This time, in her piece "Vivace," four musical notes spring from their score and begin to dance. Undergraduate Lexi Hughes' piece, "My First Heels," reflects humorously on her first encounter wearing high heels.
As always, the variety of pieces presented in the Footholds series reflects the wide range of interests among UHM's dance students, and the breadth of training that the department provides.
Tickets for the Spring Footholds concert are available online at etickethawaii.com, by phone at (808) 944-2697, at participating outlets, and at the Kennedy Theatre box office beginning April 21. The box office is open from 10 a.m. to 1 p.m. Monday through Friday, with extended hours on performance dates. Prices are $18 for general admission; $16 for seniors / military / UH faculty and staff; $13 for UHAA members and non-UHM students; and $5 for UHM students with a validated Spring 2014 UHM photo ID.

Oct 30 (Reuters) - NYSE Euronext said it is preparing to implement a new contingency plan to help resume stalled U.S. equity trading, and added that its famed trading floor is not yet damaged by Hurricane Sandy.
Under the plan outlined late on Monday, all trading in NYSE-listed securities would be executed on the Arca exchange, NYSE said in a notice issued to traders.
NYSE Arca will offer firms the ability to test the opening and closing auctions on NYSE Arca on Tuesday from 8 a.m. Eastern Time (ET) until 12 noon ET, the exchange said. ()
Opening auctions will run at 9:30 a.m. ET and closing auctions will run at 12 noon ET, the exchange said.
``We stress that, as of now, there has been no damage to the NYSE Euronext headquarters that would impair trading floor operations,'' NYSE said in the notice.
The contingency plan was described as ``precautionary'' given the unpredictability of the storm that has flooded parts of New York city.
Nasdaq OMX said in a trader alert late on Monday it would operate its production system in a testing capacity from 7:30 a.m. to 12 p.m. ET. ()
In the event that the markets are able to open on Wednesday but the NYSE headquarters and trading floor in lower Manhattan are unavailable for trading, NYSE Arca would open and trade Tape A equities as usual.
NYSE and the smaller NYSE MKT would remain closed as per the contingency plan.
U.S. stock markets will be closed for a second day on Tuesday, as Wall Street turned its attention to whether markets would be able to resume functioning on the month's final trading day on Wednesday.
Wednesday is a key trading day because it marks the end of the month, when traders price portfolios.
U.S. stock markets closed on Monday due to weather for the first time in 27 years. Bond markets closed early, at noon, as winds and waves from Hurricane Sandy lashed the Eastern seaboard.
The NYSE had said on Sunday it planned to close its trading floor and to move all trading to its electronic market. It backtracked on that idea after traders and regulators expressed concern about moving everything to the all-electronic venue, a plan tested on March 31 but never used live, given the difficulties and low staffing levels due to the storm.
With New York still to feel the full impact of the storm Monday evening, fears remained that wind damage and possible power outages could test the ability of markets to reopen.

Angela's "Not So Neutral" Room
Like this entry? Favorite it below!
- Name:
- Angela
- Location:
- Denver, CO
- Division:
- Cool
- Inspiration for my palette:
- When we were planning the nursery, we didn't know if we were having a boy or a girl, so we designed a gender neutral nursery that wasn't "neutral" at all. We wanted bright stimulating colors that could suit a boy or a girl, as well as future siblings. We picked the shades of teal for the wall first. The accent colors were inspired by the artwork by Jenn Ski called "Alphabet Zoo." To balance out all of the bright colors, we used lots of white furniture, white picture frames, and white animal silhouettes throughout the space.
- Colors used in my room:
- The walls are painted with five ombre stripes in shades of teal - a time consuming but rewarding project. The colors on the walls, from light to dark, are Benjamin Moore's White Rain, Kensington Green, Fort Pierce Green, Polished Slate, and Hidden Falls. The accent colors in the room are red, yellow, green, and lots of white to balance it all out.
- Tips for using color successfully:
- My number one tip is to not be afraid of color - especially for kids! When using bright or bold color on the walls, keep the furnishings netural and add limited pops of other colors through accessories.
- Palette:
- "Not So Neutral" Gender Neutral Nursery

Roberts' 18 Points Powers Friars To Victory
NEW HAVEN, CONN. — Trailing by 15 points with 9:16 left in the game, the Yale University women's basketball team seized control of the game and put together a rally that nearly resulted in their second win of the season. Unfortunately for the Bulldogs, the rally needed a few more seconds to pull off the feat, but the game-ending buzzer put an end to the improbable comeback.
Jasmyra Saunders scored 16 points on 7-of-10 shooting to help Fairleigh Dickinson hold on for the 59-57 victory over Yale at John J. Lee Amphitheater Monday night.
Esther Wallace's jumper with 9:16 remaining gave Fairleigh Dickinson a 54-39 lead, but it was a lead that the Knights (4-4) nearly let slip through their fingers.
Yale (1-6) outscored FDU 18-5 the rest of the way and had a chance to tie the score with the game's final play. Janna Graf hit a short jumper as the horn sounded, but the referees ruled that her shot came after the buzzer, leaving the Bulldogs with their sixth straight defeat.
"They just wanted it more than we did," said Chris Gobrecht, the Joel E. Smilow, Class of 1954, Head Coach of Women's Basketball. "They saw that we were missing three players and they smelled blood. We were missing our leading scorer, our senior captain, and a bench player that plays a lot of minutes for us. We had a difficult time digging ourselves out of the hole that we created for ourselves without those players in the lineup."
Yale was without starting guards Yoyo Greenfield and Megan Vasquez, as well as sophomore reserve forward Ericka von Kaeppler. All three missed the game with symptoms resulting from mild concussions suffered last week.
Because of their absence, Graf, a freshman forward, earned the first start of her college career. She scored 10 points in 34 minutes of action. Freshman forward Alexandra Osborn-Jones came off the bench to play in the first game of her college career. She scored seven points behind a 5-for-6 shooting effort from the free-throw line.
"I think OJ and Janna gave us a lot to feel excited about," Coach Gobrecht said. "You can see that those kids are really going to help us. Once we are whole again, those kids are going to make us feel a lot better about things."
Senior forward Mady Gobrecht recorded her first double-double of the season to lead the Bulldogs. She finished with 13 points and 10 rebounds, along with six assists.
Reserves Mariyah Laury and Alannah Driscoll-Sbar added 13 and 11 points respectively for Fairleigh Dickinson.
Fairleigh Dickinson's reserves made the difference, outscoring Yale's reserves 43-18.
Yale opened up an early eight-point lead behind the long-distance shooting efforts of Allie Messimer, Graf, and Verena Lehner, who each hit an early 3-pointer to help the Bulldogs jump out to a 17-9 lead. But the Knights turned up the intensity and outscored the Bulldogs 24-8 over the final 10:27 of the first half.
Yale came out of the halftime break and scored four quick points on a jumper by Graf and a pair of free throws by Gobrecht to cut the deficit to 33-29. However, the FDU defense held Yale to only one field goal, a layup by Graf with 11:38 left, over a 9:11 stretch that hampered the Bulldogs' ability to chip away at the deficit until Gobrecht ended the drought with a layup with 5:06 left, trimming the deficit to 58-50.
Yale is back home on Wednesday, when it will play host to in-state rival Sacred Heart at 7 p.m.

Sometimes, marketing is suave and overproduced, the results of millions of dollars of epic planning and execution. Other times, you just disguise an ultra-high definition television as a window, and laugh at someone's sheer horror.
I don't really have a broader point about the complexities of marketing, the differences between the advertising needs of small and large companies, or the role of humor in creating something that markets by entertaining people and encouraging them to share it forward.
I'm sure there are points to be made about the utility of virality in marketing. I'm sure we could talk about how stuffy old commercials that just list a bunch of features are giving way to fun ways to illustrate a products flagship value.
But this isn't a marketing class, and it's not even a straightforward business blog.
Nope, this time I'm just going to present the video to you so you can be the judge.
On the one hand, I would be furious if I thought I was at a real job interview, especially in today's market.
On the other hand, I would sure be glad it was just a prank.

Samsung is busy in preparing the next flagship of the year which is surely called Galaxy S7 and for the continuing in tradition which is the main purpose of Samsung it is expected that the Edge version of the handset will be released with the regular version and as the trend suggest the edge version of the smartphone called Galaxy S7 Edge which is the edge screen version of the handset and will come with many improved cost effective changes.
Samsung Galaxy S7 Release Date and Price
When we talk about the Samsung we have a clear history of smartphones release by the company in front of us. This year Samsung already launch their flagship Galaxy S6 and the Edge version of the handset known as Galaxy S6 Edge.

Though now only the rumors are available about the handset over the internet and no information about the price available but we have a general idea abstract from the previous Galaxy S6 Edge example that the latest S7 Edge version will be the costly Android Phone because making the Edge screen is the minutest process and it is not only consuming the time its also increase the cost of production and this is the only reason the Edge version of the handset will sell in a costly price.
Improved Features
When we talking about the future we expect to have the improved features and things which give us the more comfort in a compact manner, same is in the case of Galaxy S7 Edge. The stated below are the improved and better features are expected in Galaxy S7 Edge.
Samsung Galaxy S7 Design
There are many rumors come from the different sources about the design of the upcoming Galaxy S7 Edge. But we already known that Samsung is too trendy and it's not easy to change the tradition so we are not expecting many design changes in Galaxy S7 Edge. The only thing is curious that the how much weight Galaxy S7 Edge will carry and what is the thickness of the device.
Astonishing Display
Many websites revealed many facts about the Samsung Galaxy S7 Edge. But the most common hypothesis is generated for the display of the handset. It is expected that the new Galaxy S7 Edge will come with the stunning display which is not only sharp in performance but also has the great readability. This is a fact that designed the curved display is not easy but Samsung did the good job and proved that the South Korean giant is one of the best smartphone manufacturer. The rumors suggest that the galaxy S7 Edge will come with 4K display and the expected size of the screen is 5.5 inches. Well if the rumors turn to the fact the handset with the eye catching display will come with the name Galaxy S7 Edge.
Upgraded Processor
Qualcomm is the provider designed the latest chipsets for the all big upcoming handset it is expected that the next generation smartphones will be equipped with the more powerful processors and chipsets and we have a hints with us that the new galaxy S7 Edge will be featured with Snapdragon 820 chipset but one thing is need to be cleared here that the Samsung always launch the two version of the device one is run the Qualcomm chipset and the other one will be powered with Samsung's own Exynos chipset.
Efficient Camera
Camera is the essential part of any smartphone and Samsung is too particular for the usage of latest technology. The upcoming galaxy S7 Edge belongs to the modest era so the camera is also improved in the handset. The rumors said that the Galaxy S7 Edge will has 30 megapixel rear and 10 megapixel front facing snapper for taking the selfies.
Improved Battery Life
The handset is not only big in size but also packed with the many powerful features so the mobile phone needs a powerful battery for working in logical manner. Samsung might place 2550 mAh battery inside the handset to work in a proper manner.

I wish I could think of 5:30 as being too early to get up, but alas, that's when I usually get up, sometimes ever earlier.
I've had a similar experience with hearing alarms in my sleep, but my experience is with music in my dreams blending into the sound of the alarm. One experience that sticks out in my mind is where I was watching a symphony concert playing a slow movement of a piece in a minor key. When the last measure was played they orchestra held the final note for an awful long time, longer than they should. Then I realized it was my alarm holding that final note. :ph34r:
As far as recurring people in my dreams, I have had this one red-haired girl show up in at least a couple of my dreams this week. I don't know for sure how she fits into my experiences, since she doesn't look like anyone I know.

"Nothing tells us more about the spread of humans across the Earth than city lights."...
"For three weeks spread out over April and October of this year, the Suomi NPP satellite (jointly of NASA and NOAA) scanned all the Earth's land as it appeared at night. Scientists then mapped the satellite's data -- 2.5 terabytes of it -- over an earlier Blue Marble image, transforming that picture's daytime blues, browns, and greens into a nightime palette of blues, blacks, and gold."
This video is a great compliment to the classic Earth at Night composite image as well as the adjusted cartogram for population density.
Questions to Ponder: What do these lights "tell us" about human geography? What does the intensity of the lights indicate?
