I really love Levet. You have made him one of my favorite characters. Actually the scenes I like the most are where he and Styx interact in Darkness Everlasting(that's as far as I've gotten). I have laughed at them the whole book. Seeing Levet poke a such a stern bass@$$ as Styx is hilarious. Thank you for Levet.

I love Levet! He is so funny and I laugh out loud at his antics and comments- people look at me weird, but hey- oh well. :) One of my favorite scenes with him is in 'Devoured by Darkness' When Layla and Tane run into him in the tunnels again and he helps them out. I like how he's in that one a little more too. :)

Difference between revisions of "Puerto Princesa"
Revision as of 00:33, 1 April 2009
Puerto Princesa City is the capital of the island province of Palawan. The city has been acclaimed several times as the cleanest and greenest city in the Philippines. With a wide range of attractions ranging from beaches to wildlife reserves, Puerto Princesa is a nature lover's paradise.
Get in
By Air
Puerto Princesa is slightly more than an hour away by plane from Manila. Philippine Airlines, Cebu Pacific and Air Philippines all have daily flights from Manila to Puerto Princesa. Air Philippines also operates flights to and from Puerto Princesa to other major cities such as Davao and Cebu City. SEAIR offers flights from Busuanga Tu/F/Su and El Nido on Tu/F.
By Sea
WG&A Superferry and Negros Navigation both have a weekly ferry to Puerto Princesa from Manila. The ferry trip is about 22 hours long.
Milagrosa Shipping has a weekly ferry that sails between Puerto Princesa - Cuyo Islands - Iloilo. It departs Iloilo at 7pm on Thursday, arrives at the Cuyo Islands at 8am Friday, departs Cuyo Islands 3pm Friday and arrives in Puerto Princesa at 8am on Saturday.
Get around
Jeepneys and tricycles are the most common means to get around Puerto Princesa. As in Manila, jeepneys usually have standard routes which they ply. Tricycles on the other hand are fairly limited to certain areas and would not be able to go very long distances.
Note: The bus terminal is located a few Km outside the city centre. A tricycle from the station to the town centre should cost around 50P
For touring, it would possibly be a good idea to arrange special transport whether it be a jeepney or, for more comfort, air-conditioned vans or AUVs. This way, you will not be subject to the hassles of public transport availability.
Buy native products at the Tourism Association of Souvenir Shops, they offer handicrafts made by the native tribes like manunggul or wooden jar, bulol or tisot, good harvest and carved animals. Others are tingkop (rice baskets), fish baskets, bags made from bark of a tree, native accessories, weave curtains and table mat, rattan floor mat and other assorted cashew nut delicacies.
Intimate ambience, food, wine, coffee & tea, no beer ! ....." paté rillettes confit soupes salades tapenades grillades fruits de mer porc boeuf poulet canard crépes patisserie etc " Ditchay's
Puerto Princesa has a wide range of accommodations that suit every budget; from quaint lodges to high-end hotels and resorts, the jewel of Palawan does not fail to disappoint, offering quality hotels and resorts to suit any mood.

Humanity has always struggled with the perennial question of an afterlife. Many have searched in vain for proof of life after death. The simple point is, coming back from the grave is not a common occurrence. Therefore, we have no large body of eyewitness accounts with which to draw conclusions.
That has not stopped us, however, from speculating. Throughout all time, our hearts have told us of life after death; that something of us will outlast our bodies. The conclusions that ancients have drawn from that have been both horrific to sublime. They conjured up both eternal miseries and gardens of otherworldly delights. But at the end of the day, most of humanity for all time has believed that we will survive our own death.
There is, however, a growing body of evidence that may be able to bridge the gap between science and religion. Time Magazine did a piece on Dr. Jeffrey Long, an oncologist and author of Evidence of the Afterlife, that has cataloged the stories of some 1,600 cases of near death experiences. His research has shown that there is a surprising similarity between the stories of people that have come close to death and come back. And since his initial research, his website, NDERF, has cataloged a further 300,000 stories of near death experiences – all with similar motifs.
It is intriguing that we would have a semi-uniform experience as our life ends. Tunnels, loved ones, a strong urge to walk toward the light. But near death experiences will not tell us about life after death, only what could happen to us as we approach death. And while Dr. Long's research points to the fact that a part of us lasts after death, it does not tell us how long or in what state. For that, we must look further in order to better understand the possibilities of our eternal fate.
The past views of life after death:
To better understand what our thoughts are on the afterlife, we must examine what the ancients thought about life after death. Let's briefly examine three cultures and draw conclusions from them.
Babylon: Most ancient cultures have some form of afterlife. The Babylonians, for example had a dreary view. Theirs was of an Underworld. Those that go down to it never return and all are engulfed in misery, sadness, and emptiness. For them, it was called the "House of Darkness." It was a place of no escape wherein the dwellers were bereft of light. It was seen as a miserable place where people eat dirt for food, where king, priest, ecstatic, and everyone else all reside in an egalitarian state of shared misery. Echoes of the Mesopotamian Underworld can be seen in our modern understandings of Hell. The torment and misery talked about in these ancient sources come close to what we consider Hell to be. (The Ancient Near East p58-59)
Egypt: 4,000 years ago, the ancient Egyptians too believed that the Underworld was a place of misery. There seems to be a bit of overlap in that point. But for the right price, you could purchase spells and incantations could afford a person a place in paradise. The protective spells were meant to ferry the soul through a series of challenges that would eventually lead them to safety and a type of paradise. They would be seen as worthy before the gods and allowed to pass. If the soul, however, could not safely navigate the challenges, their soul would be judged by the gods, punished, and eventually perish. So here the idea is opened up to the idea that a place of peace awaited, if only for those lucky enough to find it. (The History Of Hell p12-15)
Mayan: The Mayan view of the Underworld was dreary indeed. The human soul, like Egyptian cosmologies, was sent to the underworld but could ascend to paradise. According to the Mayans, your ascension depended on your righteousness while on Earth. In the Underworld specifically, the Mayans envisioned a pantheon of gods ruling over different aspects of human misery known as the Lords of Xibalba. These lords also seemed to have functions on the earth as well since they specialize in such things as lesions, jaundice, stabbing pains, etc. The Mayan conception of life after death repeated the themes of paradise verses misery and pain with gods that ruled through punishment. (Popol Vuh p36)
A Bridge To Our Modern Times
The truth of the matter is, most ancient peoples did not hold out much hope for a better afterlife. Their concepts of death were dismal by many people's standards today. It was not until we get closer to the Christian era that people begin to perceive a brighter life after death. Interestingly, the Egyptians eventually adopt Osiris as a more benign god of the dead. But it is not until Judaism takes root that we see the rise of the concept of everlasting life free of pain, care, or worry. That is not to say that other cultures did not have their own form of paradise. But the Jewish form of paradise was ruled by a Loving, All Powerful Creator that was not swayed by trickery, charms, or spells. He judged the hearts of men according to His Torah (or Instruction).
But the story does not stop there. Once Jesus comes on the scene, a radical concept was introduced. Jesus enunciated what our hearts already knew, none of us were righteous. We may be good, relatively speaking, but truly righteous – no. He introduced a way to heaven that fulfilled the requirements of Torah but took into account our incapacity to reach it. He gave a way to heaven through faith. Faith that His sacrifice could cover our shortcomings.
So the concepts of life after death have evolved over time. And even today modern thought on the afterlife is changing and growing. Teachings range from everyone will go to heaven to very few; from only some people will achieve eternal life to everyone achieving it; and from most people's souls will be annihilated to no one's soul annihilated. But even though there is wide diversity, there are some similarities. The ancient religions that taught that life after death was gloomy and miserable – showed that it was in some way it was deserved. Today, even the religions that teach that we all go to heaven deal with the fact that people make mistakes and the selfish desires must be purged before entrance to heaven is permitted (i.e. reincarnation and the like). Which leaves us with a glaring point, we all recognize that we all want to go to heaven – we just may not deserve it.
Final Thoughts:
It would seem that most of the world's faiths agree that the human soul has the propensity to achieve eternal life. Most agree that not everyone is deserving of just strolling through the pearly gates. But we are not in agreement as to how one becomes worthy. It is Christianity's central point that no one is worthy and no one could ever be worthy. For life after death to be a pleasurable experience, we must rely on Someone who is worthy. And for those that accept His sacrifice through faith, His worthiness becomes our worthiness.
So what can we say about life after death? Very little. But the human heart has borne witness from the beginning that we are capable of it, life has the capacity to last forever, and we must be proved worthy to enter into it. It is on that basis Christianity finds its greatest understanding. The human soul is capable of eternal life in Paradise, but our soul must find its worth in One that is worthy of Paradise. Only then will life after death be something worth while.

I grew up in northern Michigan in the 60's. Resort world... very white, Wonderbread, beaches (white sand), pine trees (white), plenty o'snow, thunderstorms and did I mention white?
I came home to Technicolor San Francisco in 1975. I spent the first summer walking my sheet of slides around to galleries. I was blown off everywhere I went.
I was so nervous I don't remember if it hurt or not. I put the slides in a drawer and started again.
The paintings on this website are examples of my activities during the time between the two photographs.
Things I know for sure...

I have clients with corkscrew curls and I have clients with wavy curls.
As for me, I've always been told mine are spiral ringlets.
|Drop the labels and start
understanding your hair.
We could go on and on, talking about curl patterns and classifications, even giving our curls fun names and descriptions. But you know what? None of that matters. None of that is going to help you care for your hair. The "kind of curl" has nothing to do with which products you should use or which styling methods you should embrace.
The only thing that matters when it comes to the care of curly hair, like we explain in the book, are your particular hair properties: texture, porosity, elasticity and density. Your wave pattern has absolutely nothing to do with any other hair property.
Our curls, after all, need to be free. They won't be ruled by labels.
That means knowing if you have "corkscrew" or "spiral" curls, or you are a "5K" or "9T" means a big fat nothing when it comes to the big picture.
Live Curly, Live Free, The e-book, is available for Kindle, iPad and Nook formats. In it, Curl Whisperer Tiffany Anderson-Taylor tells us all we need to know to have healthy, happy curls.

I didn't mention yesterday that I made a phone call, on my own, without preparation.
I never do that. I get too freaked. I never answer the phone unless I know who is on the other end either.
Anyone who knows me knows about that.
Anyway, I had a good day - shopping in Basingstoke.
Got some xmas presents. And bought myself some stuff.
Because let's be honest, I'm a selfish little bitch.
And it's xmas so I can tell myself that it is okay.
But I don't feel like talking about my day. Mostly because Tesco have let me down and have NO CHOCOLATE ORANGES IN STOCK.
Which has clearly really upset me.
So I'll give you some interesting and useful tips
Bruises - If you have a bruise and you want it to go away quicker, soak some cotton wool in white vinegar and hold it against the bruise for about an hour. It will help bring down the colouring, and will heal it faster. Trust me, this one really works
Second, got smelly feet or fungus-y toes? Soak them in Listerine. It's all antiseptic-y and will help make your feet healthier.And it smells quite strongly. Similarly it can be used to help with blisters - which is what I tend to use it for because I always have blisters on my feet. Because I never buy shoes that actually fit because I don't like people knowing just how small my feet are.
Third. Honey. Usually, I leave my spots because I'm a lazy fuck, and I pick at them during the day because I'm disgusting. But when I feel like I need to make an effort to get rid of them, I stick honey on them overnight. For a start it smells lovely. For another it kills bacteria and keeps it sterile. Be sure to stick a plaster over the honey covered area though - I learnt this the hard way and woke up the first time with honey all over my sheets and hair. It wasn't fun.
Four - I had to use this one yesterday. I got a small shard of glass - much like a splinter - stuck in my hand. It is pain free (and kind of fun) to cover the area with a runny glue and when it is dry, pull it off, and the splinter will come out too because it gets stuck to the glue. Don't use a cheap glue though, and make sure you clean it afterwards otherwise the glue will get inside you...
And fifth, when I have a sore throat, I drink lemon juice mixed with honey. It tastes really nice (I really like lemon though so there may be differences in opinion) and it really does help with a sore throat. It is supposed to boost your immune system or some shit as well.
I thought these might be some helpful tips, especially seeing as it is colder out, which tends to increase blisters, smelly feet, spots, cold and well, i guess if you spend more time inside you are going to be moving wooden things in your house and getting splinters, or maybe headbutting mirrors like me. Which will mean you have bruises as well(:

Express. Home of the Daily and Sunday Express.
EFL interview: Charlton winger Mark Marshall on Wembley dreams, drug testing and Ronaldo
NOT many footballers have the perspective on the game that Charlton winger Mark Marshall possesses.
Charlton winger Mark Marshall was in the hot seat this week
At the age of 24 and with clubs lining up to sign him from Barnet, he tested positive for the stimulant methylhexaneamine after a League Two game against Dagenham & Redbridge in January 2012.
It didn't matter that he had asked both the club doctor and the physio if he was allowed to take a supplement that contained the drug, he was banned from football for two years.
Upon his return, spells at Coventry, Port Vale and Bradford helped to rekindle his career as one of the most gifted players outside the top two divisions.
Now 30, Marshall takes this week's Sky Bet EFL Q&A. He wonders where football would have taken him had he accepted a move to Bournemouth in his early days at Barnet, while also confessing that trips to Millwall's Den have scared him.
Were you always a winger?
No, I was a striker at first. When I was 14 or 15, I just liked scoring goals. I was playing for team called Griffin Sports in south London. Then I went to this independent academy called Crown and Manor in Hoxton. You do college work in the morning and football in the afternoon. I went on trial, they signed me and then they said: "You're not a striker," so I started playing on the wing. That was at 16. I've been a left winger up until last season when I switched to the right wing. I've learned to adapt. If you notice when I'm dribbling on the right, I dribble with my left foot so that I can see everything inside me, which gives me more options. When I'm on the left, I dribble with my right foot for the same reason.
Best moment on a football pitch?
It has to be Wembley. I've been there twice. The first one was with Swindon in 2009/10 (League One play-off final, Swindon lost 1-0 to Millwall, but Marshall wasn't part of the matchday squad).
The second one was last season with Bradford (another League One play-off final 1-0 defeat to Millwall in May 2017). That was a good and bad moment. Walking out beforehand was the good but after the game I just wanted the ground to open up and swallow me., Millwall beat us both times. And they beat us (Bradford) in the play-off semi-finals the season before.
To be honest, one of the best moments I've experienced was actually at Millwall. In the play-off semi-final. I was on the bench and during the game the fans started making the Millwall noise. Oh my God, I got goosebumps. I actually got scared. It was unbelievable. The atmosphere they created in there was the best I've ever known. It was crazy. Even being a visiting player, I'm not lying, I got goosebumps thinking that if you are a home player with his sort of atmo, there's no way you can't feel that energy and not want to go on and win.
Robben was the one I tried to emulate. Obviously his standards are very high but I love the way he plays, so I always watch his clips, more so than anyone else's.
Is there one regret you need to put right?
There are some decisions about not going to certain teams when I was younger, but you live and learn, don't you? When I was at Barnet, I had quite a few teams that wanted me, but the one that always remains in my mind is Bournemouth because they went up, up and up. And they offered me a four-year deal.
The last year of that contract would have been their first year in the Prem. You never know what could have happened, but I just thought: "Geez, missed out on that one." Eddie Howe was the manager then.
The other thing is that before I got into the professional game, they tried to get me then as well. Then they tried to take me on loan. The first time, my mum had just passed away, so I didn't want to go. I was a little bit all over the place – and I was young.
The second time, I just wanted to stay and prove myself at Swindon, not understanding that you just need to play games when you're young, I left Swindon and then at Barnet they tried to buy me twice and it was my decision. At the time, I thought: "Hmm, Bournemouth?" but maybe it would have been the best decision.
One regret that I do have is not understanding how to conduct myself when I was younger. Not outside of football, but, for example, I didn't understand how important water was, I didn't understand how important sleep was.
I was young, energetic. Now I realise that when I was that young and I had that ability, drinking water could have helped me run that little bit more, and going to bed earlier. But when I was younger, I'd have one bottle of water and think I was hydrated. This was when I was at pro clubs, but I didn't understand the dynamics. I was just a young professional footballer.
Hardest opponent?
I'd say Lawrie Wilson. I'll never forget that. I was at Barnet and everything I did, he was matching me for speed, direction, everything. I ended up scoring a goal and setting another one up, but I moved wings to get away from him. He was playing at Stevenage at the time. He's the one I can remember. I was very young at the time, 22, I think. I can remember thinking: "He's matching me for every single thing I do here."
He was a defensive right-back and all he wanted to do was to stop me. He was the hardest challenge I've had.
Least favourite away ground?
Millwall. I love the atmosphere, but it's not my favourite place. It's very intimidating. As a home player, you like it, but as an away player, they threw all sorts at our bus. I've been there on numerous occasions. Don't get me wrong, I've got no hate for Millwall, but where would I least like to play? I'd say there. And as a winger, I'm on the side of the pitch, so I get verbal abuse and everything.
When you're going there, you think: "The bus window might break or something."
It doesn't affect you so much when you're on the pitch because you don't really hear anything unless you take a pause. If a player's playing football and they tell you that they're concentrating on the fans, then they're not doing their job. It's only when you take a break or collectively the whole crowd gets on your back that you start taking notice.

What's your guilty food pleasure?
I'm lactose intolerant but I like a cheeky bit of cake – I love a bit of Caribbean rum cake, which is made with a lot of milk. Or there is this drink called peanut punch, which is made out of peanuts and milk. I can't get enough of it, but every time I drink it, my belly hurts so much. I just love the taste.
There's no chance I'll have it before a match, but I've got one in the fridge, so I'll have it at the weekend. Not on a Friday because then I won't be able to sleep properly. It makes my belly churn.
I don't eat sweets – hardly ever. I can eat as much fruit as I want but as soon as I put a sweet in my mouth, the nerve in my mouth just acts up, so I don't mess around with them. I don't eat chocolate either.
Funniest thing you have seen in a dressing room?
I can think of many things – people's clothes getting hung up, people's clothes getting cut up. It's not funny, but it can be at times. I've seen worse than that, things that are funny but which I don't want to say.
I've seen someone spit on the floor and then someone's walking by and they slip on it. But actually I hate it when people spit in front of you.
Josh Magennis tries to be the joker at Charlton, but I think he's got some sort of disorder, he never stops talking. What a guy, let's put it that way.
Boyhood sporting hero?
There are a couple. Ronaldinho, Arjen Robben and Ronaldo, the big Ronaldo. Robben was the one I tried to emulate. Obviously his standards are very high but I love the way he plays, so I always watch his clips, more so than anyone else's. He's an absolute joke how good he is. Of the three, he's the one I prefer watching for specific reasons. The other are very entertaining but for my position, I like watching Robben.
If you had the power, what one thing would you change about the game?
Warm-ups. I think everyone hates warming up. I just want to get into the game. Sometimes the warm-ups drag, drag, drag and you just want to get on, just do it. You never have the choice not to do the warm-up. You have to do it. Gary Lineker never used to do the warm-up, but that was back in the day. You can't do that now.
I like a short warm-up, but if I could avoid it, I probably would. I'd just start the game. Literally just start. But you have to follow the routine. You can't just stop and say: "I'm done". If I had the choice, I probably would.
Most embarrassing moment in football?
Obviously, I had that one situation (the failed drugs test at Barnet), but I wouldn't say that's embarrassing because there was more to it than meets the eye. It's there for everyone to read about, so if you read it, you can see what actually happened. I wouldn't say I was embarrassed about it, I was more upset than anything.
Some people ask me about it, some people wouldn't, but the football world is a very small world, so people talk. If people had a bad view about me or the situation, I wouldn't be sitting here right now.
I can honestly say that I never get embarrassed about it because I can sit down, look any individual in the eye and say: "Okay, it happened but I wasn't trying to do anything."
I was trying to take all the steps to make sure that nothing happened. It's not like I just put something in my mouth. I brought it to the club doctor, the physio and they all told me that there was nothing (banned substance) that they could see. Obviously, there is strict liability and strict liability means that you've got to take responsibility.
Even before that, something else happened that I think led to the length of time that I got because the lady came and gave a meeting (at the club). A few of the boys were being disruptive so when it happened, they went back to that and said: "You should have listened and this probably wouldn't have happened."
At the time I was enraged, but I got my head around it, I focused and here I am sitting here. How many people can tell you that they had two years out of football and they walked back into the game?
Those two years built my character and nobody can question my character. People get released from their contracts and are out of contract for six weeks from near the end of May to the 1st of July. I was without a club for two years. If I didn't work hard and dedicate myself to it, I wouldn't be back here. How many footballers do you know that had a promising future, were in the game until 25, 26 and then just faded out? I've been in, I've been out for that reason and I'm back. My contract here will take me potentially until I'm 33.
So when I look myself in the mirror, I get very disappointed that it happened but the one thing I've learned is that you can't dwell on things that have happened in the past and you can't think too much about the future. And never think that you deserve anything because that's when you get bitter. I'm just grateful for everything.
Which player in history would you like to play alongside?
Messi. I'd just love to be on the pitch with him. He is the best ever and I don't think in many lifetimes you'll find another player like him. He's special. I love Ronaldinho, I love Robben, all of them, but I'd be on the pitch with Messi. There are so many things about him to admire. In every aspect of football – obviously I can't talk about his personality – you can admire him. Vision, skill, pace, strength, everything, he's frightening. And to be doing it for so long and not dip – he came on the scene at 17 and he's 30 now – you can't question him.

LIU Post Honors Sustainability Leaders
On April 22, the LIU Post Sustainability Committee hosted its fourth Annual Sustainability Celebration honoring campus leaders who have made important contributions to campus sustainability. This year's dinner also featured Long Island environmental lawyer Jennifer Juengst, who addressed this year's theme, "Be the change, make a difference!" Juengst shared the story of winning a recent Long Island election by one vote and implored students to be active and recognize that their vote really does matter.
This year's Annual Sustainability Celebration brought together our largest annual gathering of LIU Post students, faculty, administrators, staff, family, and friends. Representing the Sustainable Post Committee, William Achnitz presented this year's Sustainable Pioneer Awards, recognizing those who go above and beyond when it comes to advocating for sustainability. Award recipients received plaques made from 100 percent sustainable materials, such as bamboo and recycled metal.
The Sustainable Pioneers of 2014 include:
At this year's dinner, there were also two scholarship recipients. Scholarship funds are generated from campus recycled bottles and cans. This year's scholarship recipients are Carolyn Cresci and runner-up Dylan Jensen for their Creative Expressions submissions celebrating the theme "Be the Change, Make a Difference."
At the dinner, $1,000 was awarded in scholarship money to these two creative LIU Post students. Senior Dylan Jensen, an earth science education major, received a $250 scholarship for his essay on living sustainably and his ambitions to become an environmental educator. Carolyn Cresci, a senior sociology major, won a $750 scholarship for submitting her poem entitled Shaking.
This year's dinner also inducted the first class of students into the Honor Society for Sustainability. In total, 10 students were inducted into the Honor Society for Sustainability, officially making LIU Post the Beta Chapter. Students at Arizona State University started the founding Alpha Chapter, after recognizing that there was no official collegiate honor society accepting sustainability majors.
Inductees from LIU Post's graduate program in environmental sustainability include: William Achnitz III, David Blumenstetter, Michael Capobianco, Michele Cassans, Juan Carlos Gutierrez, Christine Keogler, Jessica Merriam, Ashley Pereira, Lauren Posillico, and Matthew Russo.
This year's dinner featured a variety of sustainable foods prepared by Aramark under the direction of Greg Bienkowski, director of catering. The dinner also featured welcoming remarks from dean of students, Abby Van Vlerah, Ph.D., and an update on sustainable improvements at LIU Post this past year by earth and environmental science professor, Scott Carlin, Ph.D. LIU Post now has two-dozen Green Offices on campus; these are administrative offices that participate in a range of recycling and energy efficiency initiatives. LIU Post saw important improvements in recycling this year. And looking forward to next year, students and faculty are working on a future carbon footprint/climate action plan for the campus.

Today in Sainsburys I had a very important life moment. One of those moments that tells you all about where your priorities in life lie.
As previously mentioned, I am having a small money crisis. June is not a stylish month for poverty. At least Frugal February would have a nice ring to it. But no, summer is here, I have a special preview to the Liberty sale, I want dresses and sandals and, and, and... sigh.
Anyway, I am taking each day as it comes and trying to spend as little money as possible because I need to make the £100 I have left last til the end of the month and still somehow pay the bills too. Today was a good day because I had a whole £5 note, discovered at the bottom of an old bag. I had a packed lunch and spent 55p on a roll of Fruit Pastels so I still had plenty left to spend in Sainsburys.
But at some point in her life every woman - ok, maybe not every, but a small and important minority - faces a difficult question; Vogue or food?
If I was Carrie Bradshaw when she was only slightly awful (pre season five) I would choose Vogue. But I am not. Thankfully. God that would be dreadful, wouldn't it?
In fact if forced to pick my magazine of choice is more likely to be Elle or something more expensive and harder to find like The Gentlewoman or Lula or Bon or Pop.
However today I realised that my commitment to fashion is definitely secondary to my love of food and the need for toilet paper. So it's hello fresh peppers and tomatoes and other things to make my new best friend pasta taste half way decent and help me deal with the fact that having no money basically forces you to exist mainly on carbs which goes against everything I usually believe in.
Maybe next month when I finally get paid I'll make up for it with a magazine binge...

Sunday comes, revision is relentless as ever, time to get t'oven on!
I stumbled over this quick and simple recipe a couple of days ago. It instantly got bumped to the top of my 'to-try' list, a decision which I will never regret…although I have learnt that patience is most definitely a virtue after having consumed most of the batch before it was fully cooled and then realising that it tastes even better when fully refrigerated!
Still, I'm happy to take that as an excuse to whip up another batch of these tangy lemony-fresh snack sized treats in the near future, without neglecting cooling time…the ultimate test of my patience!

On Friday day night (April 29th) the girls participated in their Spring Recital. It was the 7th recital for Abby and the 3rd for Angelique. And the end of their second year being instructed by Betty Bermel. True to their natures, Abby was relaxed about it and Kippy was nervous and stressed. {I'll let you decide which daughter takes after her dad and which one takes after me.}
In the audience were a few special guests. Grandma Rose & Grandpa Rod were able to come for the event, which I believe is the first recital they have been able to attend where both granddaughters played.
Angelique played two pieces. The first one was Overture by Rossini and the second piece was a memorized piece called Scat Boogie by Bastien. She did a great job. After the performance she confided to us that she had made a mistake in Scat Boogie and said, "I should have done ba-da-ba, but instead I played ba-dom. Never mind, I'll just show you when I get home."
Abby tackled two difficult pieces and played them both with a lot of emotion and dynamics. Tarantella by Beaumont was light and playful, while Fur Elise was both familiar and dramatic.
So proud of both of them and as you can see, so are the grandparents!
Such a fun night listening to all the students perform, enjoying the fruits of all their practice time!
Another special guest was in the audience... Ms Lori Reader, who had driven all the way from Omaha, NE for the performance... well, actually, for the Prom which her daughter was attending... but she got in on listening to the 2 Lindgren girls and 4 Hubert girls play their hearts out. Free entertainment, how great is that?
Since we had neglected to take any pics of the three of us when we were last together in February, I made Abby take pics of us on Friday night. Unfortunately, Abby wasn't happy with how squinty my eyes were and kept saying, "Open up your eyes!" So, we all three gave Abby our best open-eyes. Rather freaking, huh? But I love my PEEPS!

After making the peanut butter chip brittle last month, my family suggested making a regular peanut brittle. I found Martha Stewart's recipe and decided to use this because it looked so easy.
I've always been a fan of sweet and salty things, so this was right up my alley. My sister didn't like how the original recipe called for whole peanuts. She didn't want to bite into whole pieces as the original recipe showed, so she chopped them up. I think it actually made it taste better that way if that's even possible.
While I was working with the sugar in the pan, the liquid didn't really turn golden to me. It was bubbling a lot, but pretty much remained clearish throughout the whole time, until the last minute. First it was bubbly and boiling. Then after about 7 or 8 minutes, it looked like all the water evaporated and it became dry, grainy sugar again. I thought it was weird, but I kept on whisking away, and it eventually melted again and became amber colored.
The brittle didn't fill the entire pan as it did last time, but after it was broken up, it was still a good amount of brittle.
In the end, I also had a little bit of dried sugar stuck to my pot. If running it under hot water doesn't get it off, I recommend boiling a pot of water to loosen it up. It came right off for me that way!
Peanut Brittle
adapted from: Martha Stewart
Unsalted butter, softened, for baking sheet (use margarine or spray for dairy free)
2 cups sugar
1/2 cup water
Pinch of salt
1 1/2 cups salted peanuts, chopped (7 ounces)
Vegetable oil, for spatula
Butter a rimmed baking sheet; set aside. Measure out 1 1/2 cups peanuts and coarsely chop, set aside.
Stir together sugar, 1/2 cup water, and the salt in a medium saucepan. Cook over high heat, without stirring, until sugar begins to melt and turn golden, about 3 minutes. Continue to cook, stirring occasionally, until sugar has melted and mixture turns golden amber, about 10 minutes. Keep stirring, and it will continue to melt the sugar. It will turn into sugar lumps before it liquefies into an amber color.
Remove pan from heat. Stir in peanuts. Immediately pour peanut mixture onto buttered baking sheet. Quickly spread mixture to 1/2 inch thick using an oiled metal spatula. Let cool completely, about 15 minutes. Break brittle into pieces. Brittle can be stored in an airtight container, up to 2 weeks.
Makes about a half sheet pan of brittle.

Apple iPad Hurting Notebook Sales
Security concerns, new product launches, changing market dynamics and rumors everywhere. Just a typical week for the CIO?
Apple's iPad is doing a number on notebook sales, according to a report from consumer electronics retailer Best Buy. The company said that Apple's tablet is now potentially cannibalizing up to 50 percent of the its notebook sales. And that could continue going forward.
The CIO Insight
Now is the time to think about deploying iPad in your enterprise. A recent poll conducted by Zogby International on behalf of Sybase finds that ?ne in four Americans, expect their employer to provide access to tablets in the enterprise. Improvements in creativity and innovation were cited as the number one benefit that tablets bring to the workplace (18 percent), closely followed by efficiency, time savings and problem solving (16 percent) and communication, collaboration and productivity (14 percent). One in four surveyed stated that they are likely to use a tablet device as a laptop replacement for work or personal use.
The study consists of online surveys of 2,100 adults in the U.S.A sampling of Zogby International's online panel, which is representative of the adult population of the U.S.. The survey was conducted Aug. 27-Sept. 14, 2010. iPad is more mobile than a notebook, it features a "next-gen" feel, and your workers will like having over 250,000 App Store programs available to them. In fact, when considering purchasing a tablet, 56 percent of respondents to the Zogby survey listed the amount of software and applications available as an important deciding factor in choosing a tablet.

Abbaye de Silvacane
There are three Cistercian Abbeys in Provence dating to the 12th century. One is in the hills near our house. Colette and I had a date after school one evening to go explore the Abbaye de Silvacane. Colossal proportions, stark, stone, simplicity. Just breathtaking. And just us.

Title: Radicals
Author: Frankie Rose
Series: Blood and Fire book 2
Rating: 5/5
When Kit ran from the Sanctuary, she left behind the ghosts of all those she killed. However, unlike the dead, the living she left behind aren't so easily escaped. Her father and his men are searching for her, and they won't stop until they find her.
Reunited with old friends, Ryka and Kit must put their trust in the man who killed Ryka's father if they are to survive.
My Review
*Complimentary copy in exchange for an honest review*
So book one blew my socks off and I didn't think it could get any better... well then I read book two and my brain and heart exploded (in a good way lol). This book was absolutely EPIC and I want to ride the high this book gave me forever, I am so amped up for this series and I can't wait to watch these characters fight it out and set things right. I will try to do this book justice and with my review, but I strongly suggest you get your hands on this book and if you have not yet then get book one as well because living them yourself is the only way to truly enjoy how fantastic they really are.
I usually have a bit of trouble getting back into a series when it has been a while between books, but the world is so well built and the story so engaging and memorable that after a couple pages of Rose's fantastic writing I was instantly transported back with all my memories and along for the heart breaking ride that is "Radicals". Oh how this book broke my heart, I cried a few times and yes mostly at the end but heartbreak is only one aspect to this book it's also about love, sacrifice, family, and the fight for freedom and ones beliefs, and if you ask me just the whole entire package. The action in this book is so intense and real and then you are pulled into the emotional struggle of a girl who is only just learning the depth and power of emotion and it is all done so smoothly and perfectly that I could not put this book down...I wanted to live every second and then some, I am not looking forward to the wait for book 3.
I can not believe I was left hanging like that, but I get it it's the power of the cliffhanger and they are all doing it, and I will say this Rose picked a GREAT way to end it, it was crazy wonderful how perfectly the sad and the determination could be felt all at once, I was so amped by the words at the end that I wanted to punch something (don't worry I didn't lol) I could feel Kit's determination and it sent shivers down my spine thinking about what's next .....oh my I just can't wait for book 3 this book was so so so fantastic I want more ASAP.
This book is all that and so much more I just can't say enough so please, please, please get this book and book 1 they need to be read by all!!!

Following on from the idea about why orcs neither surrender nor accept mercy,
is the idea that this may not be because orcs are demons (i.e. fallen angels, fallen maia) - but because orcs are corrupted elves; and that once fallen elves cannot repent.
The idea is that Tolkien's elves are - roughly - between Men and Angels - an incarnate angel or a higher form of human than Man.
But it may be that in Tolkien's world higher forms than Man - including elves - are incapable of repentance, therefore incapable of being forgiven.
There may be some exceptions to this, but it seems that while Men are already fallen by the time that they enter history, and that therefore all 'good' Men in Tolkien have - in a sense - repented and been forgiven (but, of course, may fall again - but can then again repent and be forgiven again) the higher rational beings of Tolkien's universe seem to be unable to repent once they have been corrupted.
Although even Morgoth is offered a chance or two to repent, and Saruman, and Feanor - none of them take it (or have I missed someone?), and it is possible that they could not take this chance (although maybe there is an obligation to offer it? Perhaps even the Valar do not know whether repentance is possible for themselves? - perhaps only Eru knows for sure).
This could be the great advantage of Men - and the reason why Men are destined to dominate and displace other species. Although they are worse (more evil) than elves in most respects, worse even than ents, and overall maybe (maybe) even worse than dwarves - Men can repent.
No matter how deep the hole they have dig for themselves, and no matter their moral feebleness, weakness of will, and recidivism - Man can (and do) repent and try again.
But not so elves - once a bad elf, always a bad elf...

Oblivians, Compulsive Gamblers, Contours & Show # 652
After a 16-year gap in releases, Memphis, Tennessee band The Oblivians released Desperation. Known for mixing garage, punk and solo in a wild and chaotic fashion, The Oblivians featured two guitars, vocals and drums. No bass. Also, all of the band members were writers and would switch instruments. The band is made up of Greg Cartwright, Jack Yarber and Eric Friedl. They have since 1997 all gone on to other bands. Greg plays with Reigning Sound, Jack with Jack-O & The Tennessee Tearjerkers and Eric has played with Dutch Masters, The Sons of Thunder in addition to forming/running Goner Records.
In between Desperation and the other projects that the members of The Oblivians have worked with, Greg and Jack reformed an early band they had been a part of, The Compulsive Gamblers. Originally forming in 1993, the band had quite a few changing lineups. They reformed as a three-piece band with Greg and Jack being the only constant members. They released Bluff City in 1999 and what is perhaps their best release, 2000's Crystal Gazing Luck Amazing. The Compulsive Gamblers disbanded shortly after the release of Crystal Gazing Luck Amazing.
This week's program featured two parallels. One track from Crystal Gazing Luck Amazing, the garage-blues track rendition of the 1961 Motown single by The Contours "Whole Lotta Woman" and two tracks ("You Better Behave" and "Pinstripe Willie") from The Oblivians raucous 1996 release Popular Favorites.

Nondual Highlights
To listen is to
continually give up all expectation
and to give our attention, completely and freshly,
to what is before us, not really knowing what we
will hear or what that will mean. In the practice of
our days, to listen is to lean in, softly, with a
willingness to be changed by what we hear.

Metta by Ajahn Sumedho
Metta is very much how we should relate to
ourselves, too. It's how to relate to ourselves,
with kindness and acceptance rather than with
aversion and judgement. Metta implies that we
accept something that may not be very nice - like if
you have physical pain or things that aren't very
nice about your body, or your character. Maybe
you have a lot of fears or bad temper, or
something like that. If you have metta it means you
can accept these for what they are. You're not
judging it, condemning it from an ignorant,
self-conscious position. You're aware of it as
painful, unpleasant, or ugly - but metta practice is
the ability to accept patiently the flaws, the pain,
the irritations, and frustrations within our minds
and bodies and the unpleasant and annoying things
that impinge on them from outside.
This is because with metta
such things are seen as
no longer personal, there's not me and you, no
'you've done this to me...' or 'I've done this to
you.' Metta is having perspective and not creating a
problem even about the unfairnesses, injustices,
inadequacies and so forth, of ourselves or others
or of society. It doesn't mean that we don't
notice, or we can't see; but it means we don't
make problems about it, we don't carry it around in
our minds with bitterness, resentment, anger and
destructive tendencies. With metta there's always
the ability to forgive and start anew and to
recognise the way things are and not expect
everything to fit the ideals we have regarding how
things should be. It doesn't mean that we
fatalistically resign ourselves to mediocrity and
tyranny and stupidity, but it means that we aren't
caught in the pattern of ignorance's conditioning
mind formations. So we can bear with the
vicissitudes of life with a kindness and acceptance.
Gill Eardley on Allspirit
"To pray is to
pay attention to something or
someone other than oneself. Whenever a man so
concentrates his attention -- on a landscape, a
poem, a geometrical problem, an idol, or the True
God -- that he completely forgets his own ego and
desires, he is praying. The primary task of the
schoolteacher is to teach children, in a secular
context, the technique of prayer."
--W. H. Auden
Everything comes in pairs as death
with life and
darkness with light. Whatever seems to be
necessary to existence is so only because its
opposite is equally necessary. Duality is a governing
factor of the world and everything within it
including ourselves. That alone is outside the world,
is nondual, which is the untouchable Reality. This is
the Chinese idea of yin and yang, and the Bhagavad
Gita's expression "the pairs of opposites" conveys
the same idea. Duality is a fact. It is here. But it is
also an illusion and the opposite truth which
completes it is the nondual. We may deplore the
illusory nature of our existence, but we need not
get lost in it for it is fulfilled, completed, and
finalized in its complement the Real.
--Paul Brunton, Notebooks
Mark Scorelle to Wisdom-l
To attach oneself
to a guru, an avatar, one religion,
one creed, is to see the stars only. To put one's
faith in the Infinite Being and in its presence within
the heart, is to see the vast empty sky itself. The
stars will come and go, will disintegrate and vanish,
but the sky remains.

I was so excited when Thanks Mama offered to send a Tots Bots Stretch Bamboozle fitted diaper for my review as I'm still trying to figure out something for night time that is... well... bulletproof!
This is what I received:
I was sent the size 2 (which fits 10-35 lbs)
The Bamboozle has a very strong hook and loop closure, with rise snaps to adjust for the perfect fit:
The inside of the diaper contains a snap in soaker that's made of bamboo:
You can adjust the soaker (fold it) as for your needs (boy or girl):
I've really liked playing around with this diaper. I have found that by adding a 2 ply applecheeks bamboo insert on top of the snap in soaker I get a HUGE amount of leak-proof protection:
This is the size two (fits 10-35 lbs) on the smallest setting:
Medium setting:
Largest setting:
It has a very well made/sturdy hook and loop closures and fastens to the laundry tabs amazingly well!
Thanks Mama's website):
Stretch Bamboozle Fitted Diapers
The Stretch Bamboozle Fitted Diapers from†Tots Bots are now available in colors! These fitted cloth diapers have multidirectional stretch to provide a great fit. Combine that with highly absorbent bamboo and a cloth diaper with adjustable legs and waist for a leak-resistant cloth diaper.
Made from stretchy rayon which comes from bamboo this cloth diaper is environmentally friendly. Bamboo is grown without pesticides or fertilizers and has a short growth cycle. The fabric is soft, durable, and absorbs quickly.
The Stretch Bamboozle has a hidden microfiber core. The included snap-in doubler adds absorbency and reduces drying time. These comfortable cloth diapers are not bulky and come in two sizes to fit from 5 to 35 lbs.
Since these are fitted cloth diapers you will need a cloth diaper cover. The Bummis Super Whisper Wrap, Bummis Super Brite, Bummis Super Lite, Bummis Super Snap, and the Bummis Whisper Pant will work with this fitted cloth diaper.
Wash on hot and dry in the dryer. Line dry to make the cloth diaper last longer. Fasten the Aplix to the laundry tabs prior to washing. Do not soak or use bleach, whiteners, brighteners, fabric softeners, or baking soda. Dark colors should be washed separately for the first three washes in order to avoid any color bleeding. New Bamboozles will reach full absorbency after 10 wash/dry cycles. You can start using them after 3 washes.
These bamboo cloth diapers have passed European standards for non-toxicity and are Oeko-Tex certified. They are made by Tots Bots in Scotland.
The Bamboozle comes in two sizes. Size one, which fits 5-18 lbs and size 2 which fits 10-35 lbs. My little girl is just 12 lbs at 7 months. She's a little peanut for sure and the size 2 fit her great on the smallest setting!!
No gaps around the legs!
The Bamboozle comes in 2 sizes and 4 great colors/prints (thistle, sunset, splosh and natural)!
You can buy these amazingly absorbent diapers directly from Thanks Mama for $19.95!!
What's on your CHRISTMAS wish list???
~Mama of the Littles~

PostSecret and Frank Warren
Bitchin Film Reviews is, by and large, a place for film reviews. But I've been known to throw a book review in there every once in a while. Usually these are books optioned into movies, but still. When I got a chance to review an advance copy of the new PostSecret book (thanks to my sister at The Bluestockings), I jumped at the chance since I'm a huge fan of the project. Not only did I get to review the book, but yesterday I got... Read More

David Rosenberg points to this article as he muses about deflation being the primary concern going forward, not inflation. He says that economists are split 50-50, yet the evidence has been in favor of deflation. A few tidbits from this article:
"Marc Chandler, global head of currency strategy at Brown Brothers Harriman, said: "As long as inflation expectations, broadly understood, remain within already established ranges, and actual measured inflation and core inflation remains low, there is no urgency on the part of the Federal Reserve to hike interest rates."
But while a sustained period of low inflation might be a welcome development, a spell of sharp deflation would be more worrying because it could derail economic growth."
Mr Resler, who says his monetarist roots would have led him to believe inflation would increase, has been particularly focused on wages in US employment reports. In March, wages fell, by the most in 20 years.
"Worries about inflation continue to be very misplaced," he said. "If the money that has been pumped into the system by the Fed does not flow into transactions, and banks are not lending, it cannot be inflationary."
"Deflation remains the primary trend, notwithstanding the bounce in commodity prices that surely are going to act as a significant margin squeeze for retailers," said David Rosenberg, chief economist at Gluskin Sheff.
Nick Beecroft at Saxo Bank think it will emerge as a factor by year-end. "By the fourth quarter of this year, the markets will be gripped by a deflation scare, similar to the one which so pre-occupied us all in 2002/2004," he said.

Dillon restaurants in Summit County are some of the best in Colorado in my humble opinion. With exactly the right mix of great food, reasonable prices and quality service they have my vote when it comes to Summit County restaurants. Every time I go skiing in Colorado I make sure to stop at my favorite Dillon restaurants to mix with the locals and relax after a great day on the hill. Summit County restaurants in general are top notch and no matter what night you visit there will be friendly service and a hustle bustle atmosphere that gives you the feeling you are in the heart of ski country. Pug Ryan's is my pick of the bunch as I really love their lunchtime fish sandwich enjoyed with one of their delicious Vanilla Porters.

The Top New Android Games of the Week – March 4, 2013
It's Monday which means it's time for our picks on the Top 10 New Android Games of the Week. Last week saw several major releases including a highly anticipated racing game, a new Toy Story game, and a visit from those bloodthirsty Aliens & Predators.
1. Real Racing 3
Real Racing 3 hit Google Play this week, and it looks just as good as we thought it would. The game offers up over 40 different cars, dozens of tracks, and lots of IAP action. The IAP's are present just like we knew they'd be, but the game is free and they are not overpowering unless you're looking to play the game 24/7. We'll have a full review up in a few days, until then we highly advise you to check it out for yourselves.
2. Toy Story Smash It!
Disney went crazy over Toy Story last week as they released a Toy Story themed Live Wallpaper alongside Toy Story Smash It! Smash it is a block busting game that puts you in the boots of Buzz Lightyear. You'll get to fling balls at aliens in several cool settings including the Old West and Outer Space and it's just as fun as you'd expect. No free version is available, but the full version is well worth the $0.99 price tag.
3. Shufflepuck Cantina
Shufflepuck Cantina is a space themed air hockey game that draws heavy influence from a universe we all know and love. You'll get to take on 12 different opponents in over 100 levels of Shufflepuck fun, and as you can see from the screen below the game looks great. There are a few bugs that need squashed here and there, but it's definitely a game you'll want to check out. You can pick up Agharta Studios Shufflepuck Cantina for free on Google Play.
4. AVP Evolution
Angry Mob Games and Fox Digital released AVP Evolution last week, and we're happy to say it's much better than Colonial Marines. The game lets you step into the role of a Predator and an Alien as you battle the humans and each other. Its gory fun and you can pick it up for $4.99 on Google Play.
5. Towelfight 2
Towelfight 2 is a game that's hard to explain so we'll go with the developers description of "Settle a dispute between gods by shooting animals out of your face." You'll dispatch foes with your enchanted monocle which shoots out all sorts of fun things like unicorns and whales in heat. That's not a typo. It's as quirky a game as you're likely to find on Google Play and it'll only set you back $2.99.
6. Star Wars Pinball
Star Wars Pinball is the latest from Zen Studios makers of the insanely popular Zen Pinball HD. The Star Wars Pinball game gives you the Empire Strikes Back Table for $1.99 and two more tables (Boba Fett, Clone Wars) can be unlock from within the app for $1.99 apiece.
7. Robo5
Animoca has put out some extremely popular games over the past few years and their latest looks to be no exception. Robo5 lets you control a tiny box climbing robot trying to escape a lab in a steampunk world. It's a game you just have to play for yourself, and we highly recommend you do just that. You can pick up Robo5 for free on Google Play.
8. Alien Quarantine
Oh Gameloft. One minute you're releasing slick 3D games then out of nowhere you release something like Alien Quarantine. The new game is a 2D space horror game with heavy emphasis on space as there's not much horror to be found. The game isn't half bad though and worth checking out if you're looking for something different. Alien Quarantine is free to download on Google Play.

Flinders and Sorrento weekend
Fished Sorrento in Port Phillip Bay on the Saturday just gone, was sad to say that we did not see anything worth taking photo's of but managed a bag of 20 squid without a struggle, all small squid from 25 to 30 cm hoods, surprising to see after a couple of weeks of some bigger versions. I tried to top it off with a trip to Flinders with the guys from That's Fishing TV but struggled to find anything at all worthwhile, we only got 3 squid and only about 25cm hood size, we worked the Flinders Reef area in Western Port for 5 hours losing heaps of gear along the way, at last count it was 9 Gan Craft egi-jya, 4 Gancraft ou-Jya, 4 megabass dartcrew UDSL, 4 Megabass Dartcrew 2.9 egi, 4 Yamashita Egi O Q Live, 4 Ecogear Fishleague Flash Max and 4 Evergreen's. A very expensive day on the water. That said I will be back for more punishment of my wallet very soon. Maybe it was the effect of the full moon or maybe it was simply the flogging they got from the public holiday, I have never seen so many boats in the area we were fishing. Was still great to get out with mates and enjoy the water.

Developers behind a £42m regeneration scheme insist their plans will not change - despite supermarket giant Tesco pulling out.
The superstore was lined up as the anchor unit for the Fox Valley development of 25 shops, offices, a café and restaurant, as well as new housing in Stocksbridge.
But Tesco has confirmed it has scrapped its plans for the site - which would have employed around 250 people - as it pulls 49 planned developments and close 43 stores in money-saving measures.
Mark Dransfield, managing director of Barnsley based Dransfield Properties, said: "We are of course disappointed by this week's news but it does not in any way alter our plans to build and deliver this important regeneration scheme in Stocksbridge.
"The withdrawal of Tesco allows us now to look at a more diverse retail mix for the area which we are very excited about."
Work has begun on building shop units at the site the former Outokumpu steel factory off Manchester Road and a new warehouse for steel firm Tata has been completed.
The full project is expected to open by spring next year.
Dransfield Properties said Tesco had made a 'significant' financial investment which had been a great help but insist it was only one element of the scheme and bosses are confident there will not be a domino effect on other tenants.
Mr Dransfield added: "We have a good number of tenants already signed up to the scheme and a great deal of interest from other companies keen to be part of this new town centre."
Tesco's chief executive officer Dave Lewis said it was with a 'heavy heart' that planned stores, also including one in Worksop, would not go ahead.
He added: "I know this news will be a real disappointment. I am very aware of the importance of the sites and I am determined we will work closely with Sheffield and Bassetlaw councils to find the right solution for the local community."
The stores that will close have not yet been confirmed.

Jon and I are spending the weekend with friends! We have plans to eat out, watch Christmas movies AND I made my very first batch of french macarons! I'm waiting for them to cool so I can put them together, but so far so good! I'll have a share a couple pictures. Hope you have a wonderful weekend. :)

i feel ya! i'm getting a haircut next week and i'm really excited! it is really hard to find an interesting haircut for curly hair, i always seem to just get layers. loving your haircut!ReplyDelete
i'd definitely want to know what products you like/have tried/didn't like. all of my fave products have changed formulas and they aren't as great, so i'm on the hunt for some new faves.
love the outfit btw! :)
Your hair cut looks so great! I've been wanting to cut my hair also but I've been lazy about doing it, haha. I love the clothes too!ReplyDelete
Gosh, your hair is so cute. Would love to hear your pointers for curly hair! Mine looks similar to yours (minus the fiery redness, mine's a bit more muted, haha). And your outfit is perfect for Winter!ReplyDelete
I have naturally curly hair as well. I was wondering do you have a hair product you love to control frizz? I hate to use gels as they make my curls "crunchy" but my John Frieda frizz control creme doesn't last long and about an hour after I use it my hair is back to frizz.ReplyDelete
Ooh I love the asymmetry of your hair! You are lovely. Can't wait to hear how the macarons turned out!ReplyDelete
xxoo Elanor
you look so lovely!ReplyDelete
Your hair is my absolute favorite!! I keep my hair red, what dye do you use? I can't ever seem to get mine to be QUITE that vibrant. It's fabulous :)ReplyDelete
I would love to see a tutorial of how you style your hair! I have curly hair as well and my current routine just isn't doing it for me. What products and techniques do you use to style your hair? Your hair is so gorgeous, I love the color and the curls!ReplyDelete
Cute outfit, and your hair looks amazing (a tiny bit jealous here i have to admit) !ReplyDelete
have a lovely christmas, and enjoy your macarons ;)
What brand/color hair dye do you use? you have about the same natural coloring as I do, and I really want to dye my hair a similar red as yours. Thanks! =}ReplyDelete
Love the outfit and I love your haircut! You look gorgeous as always.ReplyDelete
your hair looks great!!ReplyDelete
oh my goodness, I am SO happy I just stumbled upon your blog. I can't stop looking through it! You are SO gorgeous and so is every little detail on your blog! Following along & can't wait to read more. xo!ReplyDelete
I love how your hair pops against the outfit!ReplyDelete
Wow,your outfit looks really cool,like it!ReplyDelete
But most of all I like your red hair!It looks perfect with your ivory complexion!A few years ago I dyed my hair almost in the same color as yours and nobody liked it,except of me :)
And now you are making me wanting red hair again!:)

I'm trying to install a site under an alternative port on a server, but the port may be closed by a firewall. Is there a way to ping out or in, on a specific port, to see if it is open?
1See also serverfault.com/questions/309357/ping-a-specific-port – Vadzim Sep 7 '15 at 11:00
check also this - stackoverflow.com/questions/41522605/… – npocmaka Jan 25 '17 at 20:10
Assuming that it's a TCP (rather than UDP) port that you're trying to use:
On the server itself, use
netstat -anto check to see which ports are listening
From outside, just
telnet host port(or
telnet host:porton Unix systems) to see if the connection is refused, accepted, or timeouts
On that latter test, then in general:
- connection refused means that nothing is running on that port
- accepted means that something is running on that port
- timeout means that a firewall is blocking access
On Win7 or Vista defaul option 'telnet' is not recognized as an internal or external command,operable program or batch file. To solve this, just enable it : Click Start, Control Panel, Programs, and then Turn Windows Features on or off. In the list, scroll down and select Telnet Client and click OK

46What does
Could not open connection to the host, on port *x*: Connect failedindicate? – Kenny Evitt Jul 8 '14 at 13:39
2@Alnitak I just wanted to check as I think this already answers my question. When I do
telnet api-3t.sandbox.paypal.com 443I get
Connecting to api-3t.sandbox.paypal.com...Could not open connection to the host on port 443: Connect failedIs this because the firewall is blocking it? – Popeye Jan 21 '15 at 9:10
2there is a difference if you open telnet.exe and then type
o host portvs open command line (cmd.exe) and then type
telnet host port– Pawel Cioch Jul 21 '15 at 13:42
Just wanted to add that on Windows you can use
netstat -na | find "your_port"
to narrow down the results. You can also filter for
TCP and such. Mind it's case sensitive though.
2you cant use find like this, it will be searching for files, you should use grep – Moataz Elmasry Sep 17 '13 at 13:53
37@MoatazElmasry, that's true on Linux, but this is on a Windows server, where find is the correct command. Grep is not available on Windows. I just ran the exact command mentioned here, and it worked perfectly. – Ben Wyatt Jan 30 '14 at 15:28
4When I used that command i.e netstat -an | find "19345" , I didnt get any result. what does it mean? – nanosoft Jul 22 '15 at 10:22
finddid not work in Windows 10 for me, but

If you're checking from the outside, not from the server itself, and you don't want to bother installing telnet (as it doesn't come with the last versions of Windows) or any other software, then you have native PowerShell:
Test-NetConnection -Port 800 -ComputerName 192.168.0.1 -InformationLevel Detailed
(Unfortunately this only works with PowerShell 4.0 or newer. To check your PS version, type
(If you have a PSVersion < 4.0, you're out of luck. Check this table:
Even though you can upgrade your version of powershell by installing the Windows Management Framework 4.0, it didn't do the trick for me, Test-NetConnection cmdlet is still not available).
On a Windows machine you can use PortQry from Microsoft to check whether an application is already listening on a specific port using the following command:
portqry -n 22.214.171.124 -p tcp -e 80
I did like that:
netstat -an | find "8080"
from telnet
telnet 192.168.100.132 8080
And just make sure that firewall is off on that machine.
When I used that command i.e netstat -an | find "19345" , I didnt get any result. what does it mean? – – nanosoft Jul 22 '15 at 10:29
2it means that this port is free – Sarvar Nishonboev Jul 31 '15 at 6:48
I get an error when I run
netstat -an | find "8080"it says,
no such file named "8080"– Pragyaditya Das Oct 11 '16 at 10:47
If telnet is not available, download PuTTY. It is a far superior telnet, ssh, etc. client and will be useful in many situations, not just this one, especially if you are administering a server.
Do you want a tool for doing it? There is a website at http://www.canyouseeme.org/. Otherwise, you need some other server to call you back to see if a port is open...
Use this if you want to see all the used and listening ports on Windows server:
netstat -an |find /i "listening"
See all open, listening, established ports:
netstat -a
On windows server you can use
netstat -an | where{$_.Contains("Yourport")}
Doesn't address the firewall issue in any way. – user207421 May 29 '14 at 5:36
4This works on powershell – Paco Zarate Aug 8 '14 at 15:37
psping from Sysinternals is also very good
Another option is tcping.
For example:
tcping host port
I think the best one I got is this where you can check your own ports as well as other domain's ports too.
Here is what worked for me,
- open command-prompt
- type telnet
- Microsoft Telnet>open
It will confirm whether port is opened.
Other utility that I found and is good and small as well, PortQry Command Line Port Scanner Version 2.0 https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=17148
you can ping a server and a port and it will tell you the state of the port, there is a command line utility and a UI for it.
