Ford Mustang Prices Paid and Buying Experience
hs8784 Posts: 1PGC, Congrats...can you list more details about the rebates and discount you received?
List $32,855 (Bullitt with Security pack) $4000 rebate, $3000 discount.
So are you saying you got it for $25,855?
Last Saturday picked up an "09" premium GT with glass top, 5 speed and all the stuff! Sticker was $34,900! Gloss black, 18" polished wheels, all GT packages, 355 LSD! Dropped $4500 off sticker! $1500 cash back/2.9 for 5 years and 45 days deferred payments.$29,695. OUCH! But worth every penny! Haven't had this much fun since the early 70' s! Lots of incentives, but they're going fast! Didn't care for the 2010's, not enough retro, SS Camaros are nice but not enough old school and no good deals! If you're looking for a 2009, now is the time!
I leased a 2008 Mustang V6 convertible early last year. The car comes off lease end of March 2010. I know I'm early with this question but I like to try to plan ahead.
Anyone know if Ford Credit will negotiate the buy out price should I decide that I want to keep the car? Can I negotiate directly with them or must I go through a dealer? Can I use any dealer or must I deal with the dealer I leased the car from? If I decide to return the car, can I return it to any Ford dealer or must I return it to the dealer I leased it through?
That should do me for now. Any advice will be greatly appreciated.
sunfoxd Posts: 1I'm searching on AutoTrader and Cars.com looking for a REGULAR 1999 Mustang (Not a GT, in other words).
I found one that I'm not sure whether it's a good deal or not. The Kelly Blue Book states the car is worth about $4110 in Excellent condition for Retailer pricing. Everything seems all right (they claim everything works, but if I go to check it out, I'm gonna be pretty scrutinizing), and they want about $3995 for it.
My only issue is the mileage. It's got about 162,525 miles on it. Is this even worth buying? Note: It does have a custom paint job and "highly customized interior".
Here's the link for the Cars.com ad: 1999 Ford Mustang
You might get 50K more relatively trouble free miles out of it. Why on Earth do you want a '99 V6 Mustang?:confuse: Something sentimental about that car?
stkntraffic Posts: 172Maybe it's just me, but I wouldn't pay 4K for anything with 162K miles. There are a lot of cars at that price point with half that many miles.
michaellno Posts: 4,300There are a lot of cars at that price point with half that many miles.
And my son in California bought one earlier this year. '97 or '98 Mustang V6 with 80K on the clock for around $4K. From what I've been told - I haven't seen the car myself - the car is in near perfect condition.
So, it can be done.
ltomlinson Posts: 9dont buy one they are a piece of crap . i have a new 08 convt.. it is a :lemon: ......
beerme1 Posts: 67Buy one if you can but make sure at a minimum that you get a gt. I have an 07 California Special Convertible and it is without a doubt the most fun I have had in a car in the last ten years.
p.s. I am only replying because of the troll message before me by l.t. who may be able to afford finer cars for a lot more money. But let me tell you for the money the 07 vert cali spec that I bought has been the best car of my life and my wife LOVES it also so thats a nice bonus. I was so close to buying a Cadillac CTS which I think would also have been the most fun car of my life but in a very different manner.
Hey L T, lemon my [non-permissible content removed]. This FORD ROCKS! :shades: Sorry if you didn't get what you wanted though. Seriously
larryallen707 Posts: 169Is nobody buying these cars? Why no prices paid and buying experiences? I want a loaded GT convertible. What will it cost me?
You should bet able to get 15% or more off sticker plus incentives and exceptional financing! If not find a different dealer!
I'd love to know what dealer would give me 15% off sticker on a new Mustang ragtop. I'm not aruguing that you can't get it just because I haven't had that experience; it's an honest question. Who would offer me that? If the sticker is $32K that means that I could buy the car for a little more than $27K, plus incentives?
I've poked around on some pricing websites and for what I'd be interested in I'm seeing $1500 or so off msrp plus incentives. I'm leasing a 2008 V6 Premium convert that has to go back end of March. I think it's a great car - fun to drive, got all the bells and whistles, haven't had a single problem with it. The buyout is around $22K and I'm thinking of buying it. I know the car, the mileage is a little less than 15k and there's still a year left on the bumper to bumper. So far it doesn't look like they'll negotiate the buy out price, but I'm still trying. From what I've seen around used, the car might be worth close to $22k in the open market. Also I'm not a real big fan of the new body style - the back end looks shorter than mine. That's just a matter of taste. The other thing is that they don't sell the new Mustang in the color I have - vapor metallic - and everyone who sees that color loves it.
Tough decision. Ford will give me an additional $1500 off a new one because I'm a current leasing customer. They don't have a current leasing program on the new Mustang, so to lease a new one would not be cost effective. Of course if you don't like the product there's little sense in going for a new one.
jlc Posts: 30Hey folks, I need some advice. I love the look of the 2011 Shelby GT but I have some concerns about the top. How reliable are they as far as leaking? Also when I price it out the way I want it we are looking at 50k. This puts me in the same $$$ as my other choice an SLK 300 which is a hard top convert. Any help would be appreciated.
bestofthebest Posts: 1I got a 2010 premium cnvrt with under 6k miles clean title. california car. has leather , sync/bluetooth/ipod connct , shaker system, illuminated door sills for $24k
jhalderman Posts: 1I visited a local Ford dealer and asked for information on a Ford Mustang. I was asked to sit down in the showroom and they would "try" to find some information. The salesperson walked by several times and asked questions like "what color do you want?" or "do you want the high end sound system"? I said I did not know what is available and did they have something that showed the options? They said they were looking for literature or a sales form. After about 10-12 minutes, I left and gave them my business card and said to call me when they find the information. All I got was a survey call a few days later asking about my "buying experience".
What you got is what happens all too often at more than just Ford dealerships. Instead of listening to you and getting you the info like you requested, the salesman was simply going to try to force a sale on you. It's good you walked away, and if it had been me, I would've slammed them on the survey.
chode96 Posts: 8Has anyone had any experience with buying a 2011 GT Premium? Are the dealers holding firm, or is there some wiggle room?
wilcox Posts: 583WIGGLE ROOM? IMO not hardly any on 2011 Mustang for at least 4 months...
I hear that they'll accept X-Plan participants and they are now placing their personal orders on 2011 models...so, that's about, say, ~ $2,500 ~ off...or so....not too bad for a brand new "enhanced" play toy.
Plenty of Wiggle Room on 2010 models. Get yours now before only the 'dogs' are the only leftovers.
delcorbett Posts: 11I was at a dealer today, scooping prices. Is a 2010 mustang v6 with auto and the satin strip and wing worth 22,211.16 out the door? There is a 2000 dollar rebate and my xplan pin took another 1000 off but the out the door price was 22,211.16. It was not horrid but it did not make me jump for joy? any thoughts? Ohh the the 2011 v6 with auto only had 500 on the xplan, so no for me
avery89 Posts: 1Purchased a 2010 GT for 25k OTD (not the Premium) in North Texas.
3000 rebate
500 rebate using Ford financing (8.5% with excellent credit). No pre-payment penalty.
I was already pre-approved through Bank of America for 3.8 for 60 months, so I'll be refinancing the loan before my first payment. I usually pay my cars off in 3 years or less.
Also added:
7 year warranty: 1600
Gap insurance: 340
Total: 26940 OTD
Turns out I should have asked for a better price on the 7 year warranty. A 3 year warranty comes with the car, so really, I paid 1600 for 4 years or 400/year. Can't win'em all . Besides, the car is an excellent ride. I'm happy with my purchase.
craigfordsales New MexicoPosts: 18Hello everyone! Anyone from the Metro Detroit area looking for pricing and other information on the all new 2011 Mustang - I am happy to help!! Craig
vicmeldrew1 Posts: 10just an observation not criticism but if you have excellent credit you should have qualified for about 6% - i did last month letting the dealer finance locally. you would have saved more than the rebate was worth.
Last week I bought this car at the end of my two year lease. I actually extended the lease for two months while I was deciding what to do. It finally came down to the fact that I couldn't find anything that I liked as much as my 2008, which is fully loaded (except nav) and only has 16k on it. My buyout price was probably a tick more than retail book but there's no way I could locate a used 2008 equipped like mine, and even if I did, I'd be trading a known for an unknown.
I financed around $21k for four years. My bank offered me 3.75 which included discounts for direct debit and existing customer. The dealer got me 3.44% for four years from Fifth Third Bank. I'm in the NYC metro area if this makes a diff. I have top credit. Hope this helps.
Hi, I was wondering if anyone could help me out with some advice on buying this Mustang.
It is a bright blue 2011 V6 Mustang (base model) with automatic transmission and a spoiler added on. The price of the car is $24,200 with the dealer giving me a selling price of $21,000. After TTL, the car comes out to $22,600 OTD. I live in Texas.
Any help would be greatly appreciated
Of course, selling price is only part of the deal. (Financing, trade-in, etc.) You don't mention a trade-in, but the difference between $21,000 and $22,600 OTD doesn't quite cover Texas 6.25% sales tax, much less title and license. Bottomline, if you do not have a trade-in and the vehicle is as described (2011 Base Coupe with 6 speed automatic and factory installed rear deck spoiler), I think you have a very fair deal. Go for it!
My bad. $1600 more than covers the Texas sales tax. Still that leaves less than $300 for all title/license and any documentation charges. Sounds good.
Thank you for the advice. I do not have a trade-in and I will try to pay with cash so no financing. I just hope that they don't try to mess with the price when I decide to take the deal and buy the car!
Thank you very much for the help!
- Kate
I live in the Houston area and watch the ads in the Chronicle closely. I'll watch the ads for any promotion deals on 2011 base coupes this weekend if you like. BTW, my recent experience got the best deal when I was willing to finance. I plan to pay off the loan in 4 months anyway.
FYI, today's Houston Chronicle (Aug 28) has a promo ad for 2011 Mustang with MSRP $23,390 for $19,495, ($1000 rebate, $2895 dealer discount). Champion Ford.

Key Observations heading into game 74 between Penguins and Hurricanes
By Annie Shean (@JustPuckIt)
The Penguins are coming off a 3-2 overtime loss against the St. Louis Blues Tuesday evening at home. Since the Penguins have only 11 healthy forwards the plan was to utilize Derrick Pouliott in an occasional forwards roll, however when defenseman Christian Ehrhoff was lost to injury 5:07 into the game that went out the window. The game appeared to be in the Penguins favor when they had two goals less than a minute away from each other in the second period. However the Blue's were not done, and both former Penguins Robert Botuzzo and Marcel Goc scored to tie the game. Alexander Steen finished off the game less than a minute into overtime in a goal the Ben Lovejoy would want to take back.
The Penguins are now on the road to face the Carolina Hurricanes in their third and final meeting of the season. The last time the teams met in a back-to-back situation, where each road time was able to walk away with a win. In their last ten games the Penguins record is 4-4-2 and the Hurricanes are 2-5-3.
The Penguins will continue to be without two of their top scoring leaders, Malkin (28 goals) and Hornqvist (23 goals). Bright news is on the horizon however, since according to Head Coach mike Johnston they are close to retuning to the lineup, possibly even this weekend. Due to their injuries, and the upper body injury to Ehrhoff, the Penguins bench will be a man short tonight. Unfortunately the cap situation and travel constraints have limited their options adding another forward. The Hurricanes also aren't without injuries; Defensemen Rissanen (MCL) and Defenseman Hillen (concussion) will continue to remain out of the lineup. Both top goaltenders Ward and Fleury will be facing each other tonight, which is sure to be a great tandem to watch.
The goal scoring leaders for the Hurricanes are E. Staal (19), Skinner (18), and Lindholm (16). As mentioned in the game day notes, The Hurricanes are the only team in the NHL team in the 2014-15 season with four of their five leading scorers 23- years old or younger. Faulk, Lindholm, Skinner, and Rask have brought some energy and scoring prowess to the team. Tonight will also be the first time that Jordan Staal will face his former team after an injury-riddled start for the centerman. So far this season he only has notches four goals and 18 points.
Things to Note:
– A win tonight would make a 5 year winning series streak against the Hurricanes
– Tonight the Hurricanes will wear their light jerseys & the Penguins will wear their dark
– Sidney Crosby is only 2 goals away from reaching 300
– Forward Victor Rask is the first Hurricanes rookie to score 10 or more goals in a season since Jeff Skinner (2010-11)
Expected Carolina Lines:
E. Staal-J. Staal-Gerbe
Ward (Khudobin)
Healthy Scratches: Patrick Dwyer Brett Bellemore
Expected Penguins Lines:
Fleury (Greiss)

But, as with all awards ceremonies, there was still a show of jewelry. It seems there is an unwritten rule that there cannot be a red carpet event without some sort of bling. This year, the prominent jewelry item seemed to be big earrings. None were quite as much of a stand out as these enormous hoop earrings worn by Beyonce. It does beg the question though: Which was more flashy? The hoop earrings or the brightly colored dress? Say what you will, they did compliment each other well.

Talk:Misty's Staryu/Featured article candidate
Support (1)
- This is one of the most well-written artciles I have seen (if not the most). It's detailed, accurate and fits all the criteria for a featured article candidate. Ater I read it I was blown away, its now my favourite article and I wholeheartedly believe it deserves to be a featured article. Wikid 00:03, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
Object (4)
- This article was written largely by a fanboy/girl, and contains a huge amount of information that I believe to be extraneous. I don't think a list of every single time Staryu appears from its Poké Ball should qualify as an FA. --Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 00:48, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
- I don't understand why it even is a candidate. My opinion about this is simple; NO! MathijsP 06:40, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
- Yea I don't get it was even nominated--CoolPikachu! 06:44, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
- No. It may be very complete, but it's not interesting or attention grabbing. I got bored after the first paragraph ~RR~ 03:06, 22 July 2008 (UTC)
Other comments
To the people who said they don't get why it was nominated, I did explain in the talk page. Plus, I have noticed something here. This is the only article that has more object votes than support. Something else I notice is that this article is the only that doesn't cover an extremely broad subject like the others. It seems to me that the rest of you are only supporting articles that have a lot of writing (and therefore huge) and are objecting ones that are more specialized, such as this. If this is the case I find it insurmountably injust as a featured article should not be judged on quantity but rather quality, as stated by the criteria. Although this article is still quite big anyways. Finally, I hardly think that any of the informaton in the article is irrelevant. The article requires informtion about Staryu's history and that's what has been detailed. Its not a list of everytime Staryu has appeared from its pokeball as a) Its not in lst format and b) Staryu has been sent out A LOT more times than the article specifies (for lack of a better verb) so if it was the list would be much bigger so don't make it out to be.Wikid 20:46, 15 July 2008 (UTC)
Can I say something? Some of you have said that this article was just created by a fanboy/girl and the details are over exaggerated. Well couldn't we say the same thing for Brock's page? Most of it was written by a Brock fan that has a lot of information that has been stretched, yet a lot of people have been nominating it for a featured article. Why is this any different? The person was being descriptive with this article just like with Brock's. What? Just cause it's not written by an admin makes it not worthy to be nominated? As for my choice, I'm indifferent about it right now. I'm just letting you know that we have an over descripted article like this one yet it is being praised while this one is being looked down upon. --☆ケンジガール 06:35, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

I'm in the middle about this one--I don't think it's very good, but I don't think it's as bad as some folks have made it out to be. Count me as one who finds it very odd how Moe was cast as a character separate from Larry & Curly--and, of course, he's also without his traditional stooge hairstyle. Very odd indeed.
All the singing and dancing performed is not as grating as I would've originally thought before watching this feature--as someone who is an Abbott and Costello fan, trust me when I say, I've seen worse singing and dancing numbers that have dragged down a very promising feature (dare I say Buck Privates).
At any rate, I give this 5 pokes....
I do not mind this feature at all. It has all the Stooge gags, however they seemed hurried. The timing was good but not great.
It dragged a tad but I give it a solid 7. I even liked the songs. To me there was some very good, feel good, songs.
A decent but dissapointing film considering they are the stars of the movie. I think they tried to do something similar to "Punch Drunks" by having the Stooges be serpate and then circumstances bring them together, but for some reason it just doesnt work here. I didn't mind Moe playing it straight but the setup detracted from it. Obviously Curly's health was starting to decline here so his antics are scaled back and more comedy is giving to Larry. There are some funny scenes here and there, esp when the pretend to be Exterminators, but its not consistent and the musical numbers here and not as good as they were in "Time Out For Rhythm." Once nice thing was seeing Vernon Dent in a supporting role as the Casino Owner.
I'd recomend only the most die hard of Stooge fans check this out, its worth a look at least once out of curiosity. Its a shame they didn't get a starring vehicle like this when Curly was in his prime.

This is the third week of the challenge over at Make The Day Special. This month the lovely Tara has given you 3 different colour combos to choose from….
I have gone for the first combo as I just love the mix of those oranges and teals….
I have gone really quite quick and simple for this months card using a mix of patterned papers and a bit of black stamping.
The sentiment is from Wplus9's 'Blanket Stitched Blooms' and also the little blooms that I have stamped in black underneath the vellum to focus attention on the sentiment.
Thank you so much for popping by!

And those twelve stones, which they took out of the Jordan, Joshua set up at Gilgal. And he said to the people of Israel, "When your children ask their fathers in times to come, 'What do these stones mean?' then you shall let your children know, 'Israel passed over this Jordan on dry ground.' For the Lord your God dried up the waters of the Jordan for you until you passed over, as the Lord your God did to the Red Sea, which he dried up for us until we passed over, so that all the peoples of the earth may know that the hand of the Lord is mighty, that you may fear the Lord your God forever." Joshua 4: 20-24; ESV
With Memorial Day approaching, many people will be gathering at various sites where memorials are erected to preserve the memory of some great event or great sacrifice has taken place. This practice has actually been going on since early biblical times. The passage shared gives an account of one such time. It was erected by Joshua at the command of the Lord God. Its purpose was to serve as a reminder to all people of the great and mighty things the Lord God has done for His people. Those acts of God brought deliverance from their enemies, brought them to the Promised Land, and gave strength and courage to those fighting for the freedom of Israel.
Why is it important to remember such things? Is it a sign of vanity? No, but it is a reminder to all who see it that not only something significant has taken place, but also it honors those who made this event take place. And it should be something that we should be doing today because there are MANY who have given so much in service to others that what we enjoy today as liberties and freedom that without their sacrifices, we wouldn't have those liberties. The fact that we can worship freely, speak freely, live in a place where we have the choices we have all came at the cost and sacrifice of someone other than ourselves.
As Americans, we will come together to honor those men and women who died serving our country. Speeches will be made. Taps will be played. Prayers will be prayed. And hopefully those whose family members who survived will see that we appreciate the gifts their loved ones gave on our behalf. Only two groups of people can fully understand what Memorial Day truly means: the families of the fallen and the veterans who survived the battles their comrades didn't. The average person can't comprehend the GREAT SACRIFICE our military gives on a daily basis; along with our police, first responders and firefighters. And yet, if you were able to ask the fallen if they would do it again, they would do it all over again. And if you were to ask the veterans today would they fight for this nation and protect the freedoms and liberties we have, most of them would do it again. These veterans would even trade places with their fallen brothers and sisters if given the chance. Why? It is because they want everyone to have life and life abundantly.
Christians and believers have several memorials which we observe as reminders of great sacrifices God has made for us, that we can have spiritual freedoms from our enemy (sin) and to have the ability to come unto the Lord God: Christmas, Easter, the cross, the Lord's Supper are just a few reminders of what God has given to us through His Son Jesus Christ. Without His death, there is no freedom from sin. Without Jesus, we have no liberties to come unto the Father. And without Jesus, we have no hope.
As Americans, we can't take for granted that our freedoms and privileges that we enjoy today. Each one of these came with a price; the lives of the fallen. And it is right to remember them on Memorial Day because some gave their all for us. I personally don't believe the average person understands that Memorial Day is more than just another day off and another chance to party; it is to remember those who gave their all. And like the passage shares, we should remind our children what these memorials stand for and who they honor. We need to tell them the stories of the battles fought for our liberties, the lives lost in those battles, and that war is not what its like on TV or movies. War is truly hell and our military marches, camps in, and fights in these hells to keep us safe and prosperous.
This Memorial Day, please take time to attend a service honoring our fallen brothers and sisters. Show your children the memorials erected and explain to them the honest truths about the sacrifices made for them. Introduce them to the surviving veterans and have them thank them for their service to their country and their God. And to the surviving family members they might encounter; have your children thank them for the sacrifice of their loved one.
On behalf of myself, my family, and a grateful America, thank you to all veterans and family members of those who gave so much for our freedoms and privileges. My God bless you and your families for all you offer.
Father God,
For all of our brothers and sisters who have given their all and are now in Your presence, please bless them and honor them for their service unto our nation and unto You. We ask that You will bless their families they leave behind and help them in their time of loss. And finally, we pray that You will make America the one nation under God that it once was. Turn our eyes and hearts back to You. In Jesus' Name we pray, Amen.

South African opening batsman and Test captain Graeme Smith will miss the fifth edition of the IPL which begins on April 4th.
Smith will undergo surgery on his left ankle, which has been troubling him with chronic pain over the last two months.
The decision comes after consultation with Cricket South Africa's (CSA) ankle specialist, who detected an impingement syndrome of the ankle and recommended surgery.
South Africa Team Manager, Dr Mohammed Moosjee said, "Graeme went to see CSA's ankle specialist in Cape Town this weekend and he confirmed that the best management of the chronic pain in his ankle is surgery.
"The recovery period after such a surgery usually takes 8-10 weeks, and he will subsequently not be able to represent Pune Warriors at the 2012 edition of the Indian Premier League (IPL) in India."
The surgery will be performed next Tuesday, in order to allow for sufficient recovery and rehabilitation ahead of the Proteas' tour of England in July.
Smith, who was picked up by Sahara Pune Warriors in last year's auction, expressed his disappointment.
"I'm very disappointed to be missing out on the IPL this year," Smith said.
"I was looking forward to my second season with Pune Warriors, especially after my knee set me back last season.
"I would like to wish them all of the best this year, I'm sure the new management and exciting new signings will be a positive boost for the side.
"My ankle has been troubling me for some time so it will be a relief to have it repaired, especially looking ahead to the crucial year of cricket ahead."

Things in Los Angeles got just a wee bit heated late last week, something that came about in no small part because of the revmaped waiver rules NHL's new collective bargaining agreement.
The Kings have been facing an issue with their goaltenders all season - the issue being that one has been good (Mathieu Garon) and the other, to put it mildly, has not (Dan Cloutier).
Garon went down with a sore groin last Wednesday during practice, so it fell to the struggling Cloutier to tend the goal the next night against Phoenix. But what ended up drawing just a little bit of angst from Kings coach Marc Crawford (and presumably the team's brass) was the player who the team recalled to backup Cloutier that night.
Rather than bring up Jason LaBarbera, the Kings' backup last season and a former AHL goaltender of the year, the club went with minor-league backup Barry Brust to replace Garon.
The reason?
Due to the fact that LaBarbera has a one-way contract, he would have had to clear waivers in order to join the NHL team, and after having watched the Anaheim Ducks lose their minor-league 'tender Michael Leighton earlier in the week, the Kings were understandably leery over the fact they could give up LaBarbera over what was going to likely be a short-term call-up.
Had Brust simply warmed the bench for the Kings' game against Phoenix, none of this would have been a problem. But when Cloutier got off to yet another poor start and allowed three goals on the first five shots he faced, Crawford gave him the hook in favour of Brust.
The rookie would allow four more goals against one of the league's weakest teams, and when Crawford was asked why LaBarbera wasn't called up the next day, he nearly blew a gasket.
"That is something that is not an option," Crawford said to the L.A. Times on Friday. "… The way the rules are, if we call him up it adds to our [salary]cap. Someone will claim him and we pay half the salary."
As the line of questioning continued, the coach grew considerably more upset.
"Phrase it right. It's not going to change. Look around the league. Who are half the players getting hurt? Goaltenders. Who are half the players picked up [on waivers] Goaltenders…. The Ducks tried and lost their guy. I'm sure they're happy about that up in Portland…. Jason is having a good season and he is also helping our young players. He is still a value to this organization."
The whole saga highlights an unfortunate side effect of the new CBA, where sometimes - and especially in the case of netminders - the best player isn't recalled because of waiver considerations.
It's understandable that Crawford himself would be the most frustrated out of all of this. After all, the same thing happened to the coach with the Vancouver Canucks' last season, when veteran goalie Wade Flaherty was banished to the AHL full-time even as the team failed to find an decent backup for Alex Auld.

Last Christmas I had the opportunity to work with a great company called Ornaments With Love. I was extremely impressed with their craftsmanship and their Christmas Ornaments. We have never been the type to purchase a new ornament every year, and to be honest I regret that. I want my daughter to have a whole mess of ornaments for her tree once she gets older. I want her to be able to share memories with her children from her childhood. Sure not all are fairy tales but they are still our memories.
A little bit about Ornaments With Love, they are a family owned company, and have been a retail gift business for over 50 years, during the last 17 or so years they have been seen through-out the Connecticut and Washington, DC area malls.
When Ornaments With Love contacted me again asking if I was interested in doing another review I jumped on it! With being back in Michigan for the first Christmas in 8 years, I wanted something that would represent that. With my daughter finally getting to know her cousins I wanted something that showed their friendship so we got the Penguin Friends Ornament.
I was shocked when it arrived, to be honest, I didn't know the feet and beaks were pink, the picture on their website does not do this ornament justice. It is absolutely beautiful! I only have one small complaint about the ornament, the writing it smudging just a bit, I would love to see them maybe do a clear spray over the ornament to seal in the writing.
That is the only problem I seen, and it really isn't much of a problem, however in time it may vanish completely, and with such a beautiful piece I want it to remain the way it is.
You can view all their ornaments on their website, they have hundreds to pick from. Prices vary depending on which ornament you get.

It's finally time.
I know we've been asked countless times about the next shakedown series beer, and I'm here to tell you that it's finally arriving tomorrow, Thursday May 29th.
We are firm believers here at Wanderlust to serve no beer before its time, and this is one that we've been sitting on for a good long time at this point, and we're finally ready to unleash it on the world.
So what is it? Well, for starters, we're calling it the "Farmhouse Rouge". The name is pretty telling of the beer, as it's a saison which has been aged in a red wine barrel for over a year at this point. My brewing log says that it was brewed in January of 2013, making it the longest beer we've ever incubated before serving.
I mentioned in our post about the Tramontane that we had gotten a hold of some saison yeast that I was particularly fond of, and that's what jumpstarted the ideas around the 4 tradewinds themed saisons that we're working our way though. The last time we got a hold of that yeast was almost 2 years ago, and the beer that is sitting in those lovely bottles was the last time we used it. It's a beautiful thing, and only fitting that we have it coming out in bottles right now.
The beer pours a deep dark red, with an off-white head that dissipates quickly due to the acidity acquired from the wine barrel. There is a subtle spice on the nose, with an overwhelming aroma of red wine and green wood. The red wine aroma is sweetened from a healthy dose of caramel malt in the grain bill, which hints at the flavors within the beer.
The flavor is slightly acidic with some tannins from the wine barrel melding with a subtle spice from the saison yeast. There is barely any bitterness as that has faded over the last year and a half of aging, but the acidity and crisp grape flavors from the wine barrel cut through the sweetness imparted by the base maltiness of the beer to leave your mouth dry and yearning for another sip. There is a slight alcohol hotness, hinting at the 8.6% ABV contained within.
This beer is bottle conditioned, meaning that the carbonation is imparted by a refermentation in the bottle, so there will be a small layer of yeast at the bottom. I prefer to leave it on the bottom and pour slowly, although it's certainly not bad for you if you want to taste that added complexity of the yeast. If you prefer to try it that way, give it a slow roll on the table before you pour to re-suspend the yeast in the beer. The yeast we use to referement is actually a wild yeast called "Brettanomyces" and over time this yeast will continue to develop and give some really nice earthy flavors to this beer.
Due to this bottle conditioning technique, the Farmhouse Rouge should age incredibly well, and get even more complex over time. Store it warm and upright if you're going to save it for later, and then chill it down the day before you're going to drink it.
We will have this beer starting tomorrow (May 29th) at the taproom, and it will be around at a few select locations in Flagstaff (and possibly Phoenix) over the next 1-2 weeks.
We hope you enjoy our latest shakedown creation, cheers!
When can we get your beer in our place?
Mat Englehorn
owner. Angels Trumpet Ale House
My father lives in Flagstaff and got me a bottle of your "Shakedown Series: Farmhouse Rouge". It is a great beer! Until you start selling it in California, I will have to start visiting him more often.
Hello, I just picked up some of the Farmhouse Rouge at Papago Brewing Co. in Scottsdale. Before I crack a bottle open, I was curious as to what kind of red wine barrels were used. Varietals? Wineries? I would very much love to know. Nevertheless, thank you for producing high quality beers and staying creative! Cheers! – Zach Moore

Tonight DS14 and I are off partying! Where is it all happening? At school! Yep, as I've mentioned before, socialising is a big part of Danish school culture, especially in the lower grades. Big or small events, free or paid, basically everything and anything goes...
Family sledging in the snow, Sunday picnics in the park, once-a-month-dinner club (kids take it in turns to host), Olympic Games, breakfast in the classroom and selvfølgelig we mustn't forget our infamous parent parties that last until 3 am in the morning! One of the most hyggelig (cosy) events is when we book the Home Economics classroom and the kids set the tables/run a bar/prepare dinner for parents and siblings. Great teamwork! :)
Yep, we are actively encouraged by the school to socialise. But why? A strong bond - not least between the parents - gives a safe and healthy network. Cuts down on bullying. Eliminates trivial problems. Stops small issues from escalating into full blown dramas. Much easier to pick up the phone and call another parent when you've enjoyed a gin and tonic together in the wee small hours of the morning. Or shaked your booty together to Daft Punk's "Get Lucky"! ;)
So what are we in for tonight? It's a child/parent party. In one room there's a professional DJ for the kids. In the next, music and welcome drinks for the parents. The Party Committee is stocking up on extra gin, given the (copious) amount we went through last time. :P
At 'half time' there will be pizza, pizza, pizza - and more pizza - followed by dessert for all...
And on the turntable? Hmm, what about a bit of Julias Moon? A young band - complete with video featuring a roller disco! Ha ha - takes me back to my own days of youth club discos...
No teenage party is complete without the song D.A.U.D.A. by Silvas. Really (really) annoying at first, but gets right in to your head. It has become, what they call in Danish, en landeplage...the 'scourge of the country'!
And, of course, on the dancefloor we'll all be battling to be The Greatest Dancer. I leave you with the Danish Grand Master - my fave, fave, fave Marvelous Mosell!
Time to look out those roller skates. Have a fabulous Friday and a wonderful weekend!
Diane :)

Photographing Character
Character photography refers to basically two main genres in photography. One is to photograph actors or regular people in costumes which symbolize a known comic, movie,or television fictional character. This style is mostly referred to as cosplay.
The other genre, which is the one about which we will be referring to here, is capturing a subject's personality or character through photography based on facial expression and body posturing as well as taking cues from the person's work into consideration.
Don't immediately assume that all of your subjects will be limited to people, animals can show character and most have their own distinct personality. Still life subjects can also be used to showcase character. To start, here is the most common definition of character: "A phenotypic trait is an obvious and observable trait; it is the expression of genes in an observable way." wikipedia
With people and animals as your subjects your focus should be in recording facial expressions which appear to denote a particular mood such as a bad mood, a good mood, someone who is definitely arrogant, demure or completely confident.
Even if you find yourself using models, friends, relatives, acquaintances, you should not try to have them "model" a behavior or assume a character, an astute audience and most photographers can tell when something is being feigned.
For planned shoots, engage your subjects in casual conversation and let them be themselves while you record their images at various points; the models should not even be told of the theme and avoid being too noticeable as you are involved in the process of taking a photo. This sounds difficult but is a practical approach if you want to successfully accomplish the goal of this project.
A variation in technique is to record an image right at the moment when the subject becomes aware of your presence and looks directly at you while your subject has been previously engaged.
Pay attention to facial details, gestures, choice of makeup, hair styles, clothing, body postures and hand position, also worth noting is the particular work in which your subjects are involved. These can prove to be invaluable tools that aids you in deciphering character traits. Your subject matter needs not be static, moving ones work as well.
The majority of animals and especially your pets can often demonstrate certain traits that denotes character. However, your pets make better subjects since you have come to know them well and have learned to recognize habits. Having them be aware of your presence is not as crucial as with people, but often the best results are obtained if they are recorded when they are not fully aware of your presence; while playing with a particular toy, eating, resting or just frolicking around.
Wild life also disseminates certain character traits which they have most often learned from their parents. Use a long lens to hide your presence since they will be focused on you once they get wind of your presence. The key is to record them while they are relaxed and being themselves. Pay attention to interactions between family and clan members and parent and offspring. Hunting scenarios, feeding and at rest. Again, the focus should be in the facial features and expressions.
Special focus should be given to species in which there is a dominant male or a female per clan or an Alpha and Omega pair such as in wolf packs. Pay close attention to raised ears, raised or lowered tails, their gaze and physical stance.
For inanimate objects, choose items that are socially connected with a certain degree of expectation. Beers and wines are sometimes referred to as having "character", certain foods also have characteristics attached to them such as Mexican food having "a spicy character".
Buildings such as churches, houses, stores can also be described as having an appeal that gives them a character, as do many works of art ,statues and sculptures.
Choose things carefully, because representing a character in an object is quite difficult and not everyone has a knack for it. If not done properly your images are just photos of a meal, a drink, a house, a store and so on. If you however decide on photographing an object's character, then go with your instincts instead of what you've been told or have read.
As with any photo technique or theme worth pursuing, the photographer must be creative, innovative and to always add that little personal touch that distinguishes ones images from those of others.
Cats have got to be the most interesting subjects to photograph if you catch that at just the right moment.
Hey Luis, this project is fun. I can take photos of people when they least expect it...lol
Photographing character is indeed an interesting technique, something that one can not be bored of.
That's where my long lens comes in handy. I have a great one of my SIL that reminds me of Lauren Bacall-total style and attitude. Its one of my all time favs. I didn't realize there was a name for it.UP UP and away.

Bonner General Health Wins 2016 Qualis Health Idaho Quality Award
Qualis Health, one of the nation's leading population health management organizations, presented the Idaho Awards of Excellence in Healthcare Quality in Boise on April 21, 2016.
"Our changing healthcare landscape requires increasingly vigorous efforts to improve healthcare delivery and health outcomes in Idaho and across the nation. The Qualis Health Idaho Quality Awards celebrate organizations that have transformed healthcare delivery for their communities – making a real difference for their patients and their families," said Jonathan Sugarman, MD, MPH, President and CEO of Qualis Health. "Their achievements exemplify progress towards critical aims for healthcare: better quality of care at a lower cost."
Prior to the initiation of the Bonner General Health Stroke Program, "We were unable to provide our local residents and the residents of nearby communities with timely access to care when stroke symptoms occured. Our project has allowed us the ability to provide appropriate stroke care close to home," said Tracy Autler, Director of Quality and Risk Management.
"We now have a real-time connection with neurologists and interventional radiologists that gives our patient, and their family, the ability to directly communicate with them by way of a Tele-medicine robot. The robot allows the physician to see the patient, do a complete assessment and provide recommendations for care," said Mike Taylor, RN Manager of the BGH Emergency Department. Autler added, "The remote physician works in collaboration with the emergency physician to provide the best care for the best outcome. This program improves the chance that symptoms may be reversed, long term disability can be minimized and patient outcomes can be greatly improved. Although not every stroke patient will have a good outcome, the process we have put into place will provide the best chance possible. "

The Zohar
It was in the Tannaic period that the Zohar, the most famous text of Kabbalah, was committed to writing by Rabbi Shimon Bar Yochai (also known as the Rashbi). Rashbi lived in tumultuous times when the Roman government was executing all the great Torah teachers, including his master Rabbi Akiva.
Rashbi himself had to flee Roman persecution and hid in a cave with his son, Rabbi Elazar, for thirteen years. During this time, he received Divine Inspiration (Ruach Hakodesh) and merited the revelation of Elijah the Prophet and composed the sacred Zohar.
Based on the five books of Moses and written in Hebrew Aramaic, the text of the Zohar explores and expounds in a most cryptic way the mystical tradition. Its pre-eminent place in Jewish mysticism does not derive solely from its antiquity or its authorship. Other works of the Kabbalah such as Sefer Yetzirah and Sefer HaBahir are of earlier origin. The Zohar's importance must rather be attributed to its comprehensiveness.
It became the source for practically all the later authoritative Kabbalistic teachings of the Arizal and others.
The Zohar was concealed for many centuries, and the study of the Kabbalah was restricted to a select few qualified individuals. It became revealed only in the thirteenth century and was published by one of the leading Kabbalists living in Spain, Rabbi Moshe de Leon. Some believed that the Ramban (Rabbi Moshe ben Nachman c.1194-1270 C.E.), himself a renowned Kabbalist, had sent the Zohar from Israel by ship to his son in Catalonia, but the ship had been diverted and the texts ended up in the hands of Rabbi Moshe de Leon. Others explained that these manuscripts had been hidden in a vault for a thousand years and had been discovered by an Arabian king who sent them to Toledo to be deciphered. Still others maintained that Spanish conquistadors had discovered the manuscripts of the Zohar among many others in an academy in Heidelberg. Whichever theory is true, the text was accepted as authentic by all pre-eminent Jewish scholars.
The mystics ascribe special potency to the study of Zohar.
It effects a nullification of evil decrees, eases the travails of exile, hastens the redemption, and draws forth Divine blessings. In some mystical circles, great merit is attributed to the mere recitation of the sacred texts of the Zohar, even though one does not understand them. However, ideally an effort is to be made to understand and comprehend the texts. The text has been translated into Hebrew and English. In truth, today it still remains a closed text without many introductions, explanations, and elucidations of later masters.
In summary, at this stage of history the major texts of Sefer Yetzirah, the Sefer HaBahir, the Pirkei Heichalot Rabati, and the Zohar contained the basic teachings that had been passed down through the prophets and sages from Moses. And yet, although committing the mystical tradition to writing had saved it from extinction, it was still a closed book to all but one who would be familiar with the intricacies of the esoteric tradition. The outline had been written but the keys to the tradition remained oral and contained within a small circle.
This remained the case until the next great explosion of Kabbalah to take place in the town of Safed, located in northern Israel, in the sixteenth century.
The Zohar is very precious
I do not have any foundation to question the authenticity of the Zohar. However, as we read in our daily count of the Omer: " Accept our supplication and hear our cry, You who knows secret thoughts. Blessed be the name of the glory of His kingdom forever and ever." Amen.
re: French Bradford's Question of Last year....
Depending on where you live, the original Aramaic copies are found in Major University Libraries and maybe a public library. There are several editions extant using the old style "RASHI" script found in many editions. Now with the modern Hebrew type you can get this in a set by mosad Harav Kook [zohar only] The Ashlag and the Matok edition come with hebrew commentaries.
re: benton's Comments ... THe orthodox Torah community have basically said the story of the Rashbi, writing it is reasonably accepted. Rabbi Ashlag sayst if the Zohar would be the work of Moshe de Leon, he would feel it in his work. If he could go back to an earlier period than the Rashbi, he would not hesitate to say so. Nachmanides says several times there is a mystical tradition going back to Adam through Noah and Shem [see the story of Er Onan Yehuda and Tamar[
The non Orthodox world has called it a fake and attribute it to Moshe de leon who made up a story that he found it.
The Zohar. Is it possible,or is this ancient text available for the public to read?
authenticity the zohar's questionable authenticity is well known....it should therefore be mentioned in the article above

In late 19th-century and early 20th century "Martial Arts" in Japan and China actually took the "martial" very literally. They actually fought to the death with knives, swords, and even empty-handed, and even though in the Western world at that time there were firearms that took the place of the swords that was so prevalent in the eastern world, however there was still a lot of fist fighting, and even knife fighting, so learning how to actually fight was a very important skill to have even in the old west days. The point is that the training they did back at their martial arts dojos, would actually be used in real life regularly, so the techniques had to be effective, practical and efficient, because how they trained in the dojo would reflect how they fought in the street, and back then if they did not fight effectively and efficiently they would end up losing, and since there were no referees, eight counts, or tapping out, losing would usually mean dying.
Because of its proximity to, and disproportionately high population of Asians, Hawaii always had a large portion of its population training in martial arts. I never did a survey, but I would be willing to bet a lot of money that per capita Hawaii has the best martial artists and streetfighters in the country. Now let's fast-forward to circa 1945 the rugged streets of Honolulu Hawaii. The island was being flooded with the white military men, and the locals were not too happy about this, so a group of very skilled, and very tough martial artists got together, combined there different arts ranging from grappling arts such as judo and jujitsu, and striking arts such as Kenpo and boxing, and started a new Street fighting, and defense system called KaJuKenBo (Ka-Karate, Ju-Judo & jujitsu, Ken-Kenpo, Bo-boxing). They would train at different parks, and recreation centers, but they would put their fighting art to the test downtown Honolulu, usually against military men who would usually end up on the losing end of a street fight with a local who had been trained in KaJuKenBo.
Now let's fast-forward to the mid to 20th century to present. We have a different society now. If two boys get into a schoolyard fight, instead of the teacher breaking it up and sending them back to class, the fight will be broken up, and both boys will be suspended from school and investigated as terrorists. If a bully is beating up an innocent student, and the student has the audacity to even try to defend himself, the zero tolerance policy we'll dictate that by defending himself the innocent student is just as guilty as the bully who started the fight. Now if you add adults to this equation it gets even more litigious. You can actually go to jail, or get civilly sued for defending your life, or your family's life. Schoolyard fights, and street fights are much less frequent because of this, and because no one knows who is carrying a gun or knife. I am not saying that street violence, and assaults are any less frequent, but mutual combat between two consenting adults is practically a thing of the past. Because of the above-mentioned, martial arts schools have taken to teaching fancier, more flamboyant techniques to attract students both young and old. The good thing is that those flashy and flamboyant techniques look really cool, the problem is that they are completely ineffective in a real life fight, and since mutual street fights, and even schoolyard fights are so infrequent now, nobody contested techniques they were learning in the dojo, so the instructors would just tell their students that these crazy techniques would be effective in the street, and the students would just believe them and practice these techniques over and over and over again, talk about a waste of time and energy.
And that's where the UFC comes into play. There were so many myths about a lot of these fancy and flamboyant martial arts techniques that these instructors would teach to their students and tell them they can disable any attacker with one spinning whipping crane's beak strike, or disarm and defeat any would-be attacker with the whipping tail of a dragon strike. People believed these silly techniques for a few decades, but then the UFC came along and it showed what techniques will work, and which techniques will not work, now the days of the silly little ineffective yet cute techniques are gone, because though a UFC fight isn't quite the same as the life or death street fight, it's the closest thing that we can practice and test without actually getting killed, arrested, or sued.
Now since I started with KaJuKenBo… I've been in many street altercations, then I put what worked into a system I called it Hawaiian Kempo, from there I trained some of the best combat sports athletes in the world including UFC, K1, and Boxing champions, and though those are sports, and not street, almost all of the techniques that will knock out your opponent in the ring or the cage Will not count your opponent in the street. I have modified many of our techniques to make them all street effective and now I have taken my system, Hawaiian Kempo, full circle, and I'm ready to train everyone to be safe on the street…. Ultimate Self Defense

My boyfriend made out with his friend who he was messing around with before we started dating. I don't know how strong his feelings are for her but I would imagine he feels something for her since they're close friends.
Why would he start a relationship with me if he had a thing for someone else?
Most Helpful Guy
Maybe he just wanted to make out with her & get laid & that was it. If he's with you right now than that means he chose you 'cause if she made out with him that means she didn't friendzone him therefore he has no reason to be hung up on her or use you to get her jealous so I think that you're over thinking this. He chose you so you won. (:00|00|0
I'd like to think he chose me but we were on a "break" and he was with her and then shortly after he made out with her, we broke up..
Oh! Well that's a different story all together so dump his ass & go find you a Man who knows how to treat a Woman right! (:

Do Execs Have Good Luck in Trading Own Stock?
Wednesday, November 28, 2012
Corporate executives long have bought and sold shares of their own companies, and outside investors have long tracked such trades, in the belief that insiders have a particularly good feel for how companies are faring. The Wall Street Journal reports that regulatory efforts to prevent abuses are so flawed they have left a confusing landscape that raises suspicions about trades that are innocent, and provides cover for others that are less so.

Republican presidential hopeful Mitt Romney's 2011 Christmas card features the whole family, including the former Massachusetts governor's children and grandchildren.
Twenty-eight members of the Romney clan are shown decked out in matching outfits, with the boys in blue gingham shirts and the girls in orange polka-dotted dresses. Romney sits proudly at the front of the photo next to his wife Ann, one of his granddaughters propped up on his knee.
"We wish you and your family a Merry Christmas, happy holiday season and a joyful new year," the card says.
The snail mail greeting wasn't the only way the Romney family spread holiday cheer. The GOP candidate and his wife also filmed a Christmas message while visiting New Hampshire, where he was campaigning ahead of the Jan. 10 primary.
Since the Christmas holiday, Romney has ramped up his campaign in anticipation of the Jan. 3 Iowa Caucus. The GOP hopeful is hopping back and forth between the Granite State and the Hawkeye State in hopes of winning the two major Republican events ahead of 2012.
Below, an image of Romney, his wife and his grandchildren from the Romney Christmas card:

The latest cast poster for The Counselor shows and tells nothing.
From dusk to dawn there is Michael Fassbender, Penelope Cruz, Cameron Diaz, Javier Bardem and his now standard weird new haircut– and the cute guy at the end, Brad Pitt.
Ridley Scott and literary grump par excellence Cormac McCarthy (in his screenwriting debut) collaborated on this story about how a respected lawyer's one-time dalliance with an illegal business deal spirals out of control.
This much directing, writing and star power is bound to generate Oscar sparks.
Opens, like the sign says, October 25th.

New Column, Saturday Edition
Filed Under Current Events, Politics | Leave a Comment
One quick announcement before we grab on our winter coats and head over to Spartan Stadium for the Michigan State/Purdue game: I have a new column up at the American Thinker today about Barack Obama's choice of Michigan Governor Jennifer Granholm to be on his Economic Advisory Board.
The column is a greatly expanded version of a short blog post I wrote yesterday morning. Give a read to "It's the stupid, economy!" for my opinion on taking Jennifer Granholm's economic "expertise" to the national level.
Have a good weekend all, and go State!

Bessemer Hires Rossmiller To Head Fixed Income
David Rossmiller will lead the bond investment division at wealth and investment management advisory firm Bessemer Trust.
Rossmiller has signed on as head of fixed-income at the New York-based shop. He will report directly to Bessemer Trust CIO Marc Stern, who said: "David has more than two decades of investment experience and has successfully led global fixed-income teams and set overall strategies at major institutions. We expect him to make significant contributions to our investment platform and continue the strong results that have distinguished our fixed-income team."
His responsibilities will include overseeing fixed-income strategy, implementation and communication. Additionally, he will be a member of the firm's investment policy and strategy committee. Rossmiller will work closely with Managing Director, Portfolio Manager and former Head of Fixed Income Harold Woolley and Bruce Whiteford, managing director and portfolio manager.
The firm currently oversees more than $55 billion in assets for its high-net-worth, foundation and endowment clients.
Before taking on his new role at Bessemer Trust, Rossmiller worked as global head of fixed income for Deutsche Bank Private Wealth Management. Earlier in his career, he was a VP in charge of international fixed-income at Travelers Investment Management Co.
Wells Fargo Hires for Institutional Banking Group
As Wells Fargo continues the expansion of its municipal credit strategy, the financial services firm has turned to Nancy Feldman and Don Lipkin to help "provide credit strategy and analysis to issuers and investors," the company said.
Within Wells Fargo's government and institutional banking (GIB) division, Feldman, a former director of New Jersey Treasury Department's office of public finance, is slated to focus her efforts on municipal issuers and manage credit ratings, bonds structure and execution options, a May 20 press release said.
Additionally, Lipkin, a former managing director of senior research and head of fixed-income research at U.S. Trust/Bank of America Private Wealth Management, will offer credit and market analytical reports to "top institutional investors" and support "flow trading," the statement said.
Both new appointments will be based in New York.

I'll be direct; I'm writing this to fire you up. I'm writing to strike a nerve, to make you realize that you're bigger than you think, to inspire you to go after what you want.
I'm not here for a pity party–but I'll shoot you straight. I don't come from a family that's well to do. I'm not from a nice town along the New England coast, nor have I had the opportunity to travel the world. My name is Todd and I come from a small town in Mifflin County Pennsylvania. My family worked in steel mills, and as truck drivers. And, by most accounts, I was expected to follow suit–working a manual labor job. If I was lucky, I'd go to college and settle in as a teacher.
Today, people half-way around the world bought a book and training system that I poured my heart into. It was a combined effort–I worked with a great strength coach named John Gaglione. His effort, support and knowledge have been unmatched.
It's been incredible ride filled with late nights and early mornings–triumphs and set-backs. When I opened my email and saw that people from far away countries trusted us enough to purchase something we worked so hard on, I cried.
This isn't a sales letter for Supreme Strength. I know that it's a great resource. I know that those that buy it will receive something great. That makes me incredibly happy, but it's just an example that we can accomplish anything we want.
Remember, I'm just a kid from Mifflin County that wasn't expected to do anything. But I decided to claw, to scratch, to dig and to fight. I set a goal to help as many people as I possibly could get stronger and live better lives. I'm not there yet. But because I decided to take action and work with Coach Gaglione, I'm one step closer.
What do you want?
Go Fucking Get It.

Web applications can accumulate a lot of data, so a good search feature is crucial for users to navigate this data and find the information they need. Search is hard, though! That's why search engines such as Elasticsearch and Apache Solr are so popular.
In this course, Envato Tuts+ instructor José Mota will show you how to incorporate search into your web application. You'll create an application for searching a database of Envato Tuts+ courses with features such as date range filtering, full-text search, and search result pagination.

Charlie Sheen ends Kutcher feud after actor makes public plea
Charlie Sheen has ended his feud with his Two And A Half Men successor Ashton Kutcher after the Just Married star took aim at the man he replaced on the show during a TV interview on Wednesday (05Feb14). Sheen has been making wisecracks about Kutcher's talent ever since he landed the lead on the comedy after the Wall Street star was fired in 2011 – and after almost two years of tweets and public attacks, Kutcher has fired back.
During an appearance on Jimmy Kimmel Live!, Kutcher made a "public plea" to his predecessor to stop dissing him.
He said, "Dude, shut the f**k up! Seriously. Like, enough already. Like, it's like three years later and you're still blowing me up on Twitter? Come on, dude. Really?"
It appears Sheen got the message loud and clear, taking to Twitter after the show aired and writing, "Ashton message received. so sorry u (sic) sounded like me! well done! my bad I was pi**ed at other c**p & took it out on you (sic). hope u r (are) good."
But Sheen insisted on having the last word, issuing a threat to Kutcher on Thursday morning (06Feb14).
He tweeted: "…but news flash Dood (sic), you ever tell me to shut the F*** up, EVER again, and I'll put you on a hospital food diet for a year."

Benante's Wife 'Attacked Him From Behind'
Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante's wife Sandra attacked him from behind in an assault that led to both of them being jailed, his attorney has said.
Anthrax drummer Charlie Benante's wife Sandra attacked him from behind in an assault that led to both of them being jailed, his attorney has said.
The couple found themselves behind bars in Indiana at the weekend, charged with domestic battery in front of a child. Benante's head was bandaged when his police booking photo was taken.
They return to court on Friday, where the drummer's representative, William l Hotopp, says his client will be vindicated.
The lawyer explains: "Last Friday Charlie was assaulted several times during an altercation that sent him to the emergency room with a gash at the back of his head that required several staples to close.
"Mr Benante and his six-year-old daughter Mia had travelled to Elkhart, Indiana, to meet Mrs Benante and her 17-year-old son, who was participating in a baseball series.
"At some point words were exchanged between Mr Benante, Mrs Benante and her male companion that led to a scuffle.
"Mrs Benante hit Mr Benante in the face, he pushed her away, and as he turned to leave with Mia, Mrs Benante assaulted him from behind, hitting him multiple times on the back of the head with a cellphone.
"Police were called and both were detained. Mr Benante is understandably distraught by this incident, and that his daughter, who he dotes on, witnessed it."
Benante, 49, will appear in Elkhart County Court, Indiana, and Hotopp says: "We expect complete vindication."

After that long, long, long (did I say long?)… never-ending (well it seemed that way) winter— I know your feet were begging (and pleading and possibly crying) for a break from all those winter boots. Am I right? Those poor feet, SO I've made up a list of some MUSt have shoes you'll definitely want to be sporting all summer long. Let those babies have some wriggle room!
Whether you'll be walking on the beach, sightseeing, or dancing—there's a pair waiting for you! (and most are under $100). Go on and splurge a little! You aren't breaking the bank here! If you are interested in a certain pair, the pictures are clickable!
If you love wearing sundresses, but don't want to seem too girly you can always dress it down with a edgy pair of sandals! There have been plenty that have caught my eye, but these were at the top. These sandals would also look good with a pair of distressed capris or shorts and a retro tee!
Between the studs, chains, and braids on these sandals—I'd rock any of these with pride. I love the simple yet rebellious statement that these shoes make! Let your shoes do the talking!
Country Music Superstar Miranda Lambert just launched her very own Miranda Lambert shoe line, as if I WOULDN'T love it right? All pairs of her summer shoes say edgy with feisty and sexy wrapped into one!
Add a little flair to that one tone dress. You don't have to go all one tone. I mean, it's SUMMER.. spice it up! Adding color and flair with an amazing pair of shoes? YES! You'll definitely be seeing brightly colored sandals all over the walkways where ever you are, this is the IN right now!
These would even look good with a pair of skinny jeans! Choose a darker color such as blue or black and pair it with colored sandals & shirt. I love all the above and the gladiator style shoes are definitely something I like.
*Animal Print
Animal Print is something I don't think will ever go out of style. I love seeing animal print mixed randomly in outfits. And randomly I mean JUST one print per outfit. Mixing more than one print is just too much.
Mixing an animal print shoe (or bag) with a little black dress for an outdoor summer event is definitely a YES! Or add some spice to those skinny jeans!
The python print has always been a favorite of mine, although any print looks good.
*Chunky Wedge
I am soooo loving the chunky wedge style. It pairs basically with anything in your summer wardrobe. Whether you'd like to rock a skirt, shorts, skinny jeans, capris, and even jeans a wedge spices it up.
These shoes are super sexy and you can NEVER go wrong with a wedge! Right? Right! I am loving even more that there are bright colors as well as animal prints now in wedge as well! Rock it sister!
What is your favorite summer go-to sandal?
Which style above do you like best?
