At some point, vacationers may have thought of how much easier and enjoyable their vacation planning and trip would be if they had their own vacation home. However, there are a lot of important factors that come into play before taking such a big step.
Cebu was once a simple city but as the years passed, it has grown progressively that numerous skyscrapers, malls, buildings, condominiums, hotels, and a lot more are springing up like mushrooms. And speaking of hotels, if you're a Cebuano or Cebu-based, I'm pretty sure you know that a lot of newly-built hotels are emerging one after the other. This gives us, locals and tourists, more and more options for a place to stay here in Cebu. And for our December weekend staycation, we chose one of the new hotels in the metro, Maayo Hotel.
Traveling in itself is already an adventure. However, there are those people who really seek adrenaline-pumping, hair-raising, mind-blowing activities. So if you're from Cebu (or if you're wanting to visit Cebu), there's no need to go very far to satisfy your adventurous spirit because Danasan Eco Adventure Park has it all for you. We were there just a month ago and I have to say that it was an experience I will never forget. If you have read my post about the beautiful sea of clouds at Danasan Peak, then I'm sure you'll get even more excited about what other activities you can do at Danasan Eco Adventure Park.
Witnessing Danasan Peak's version of the famous "Sea of Clouds"
It's been a while since I last climbed up a peak. My first climb was at Osmena Peak last April 2017. Mt. Kan-Irag (or more famously known as Sirao Peak) was my second where we trekked for 11 hours. This was just last July 2017. And my third climb for this year is Danasan Peak which just happened last Sunday, November 5. Going up there is easy and will only take around 15-20 minutes depending on your pace. Going up there was an experience I could never forget. And that's because for the very first time, I finally got to witness, what the people call, the "sea of clouds".
Coffee lovers go to coffee shops. Beer drinkers go to bars and pubs. If you drink both, then I have good news. What if I tell you, you can have both of these drinks in just one place, in one sitting (if you'd love that)? It's called Drip and Draft and it's located at the Streetscape Mall in Banilad, Cebu City. At Drip and Draft, there's no need to go to two different places to grab your cup of coffee and then a glass of beer next!
Walking will always be an integral part of our lives. Whether we're travelling or going about our daily routine, we will always be doing a lot of walking. And considering that we'll take around 220 million steps (can you imagine?!) in our lifetime, why do it in uncomfortable shoes? Choosing the right pair of shoes has been very important for me ever since I started working. Back then, as long as it fits and the design is nice, I'll go with it. But now that I commute to work every single day and attend blog events in some days, I really take time in choosing shoes that are comfortable to wear and does not hurt my feet after a long walk or when wearing it for the first time. And with FitFlop's recently launched Autumn 2017 Collection, different styles of shoes are now readily available for women of all shapes and sizes without even compromising style to enjoy comfort.
Healthy Shopping Experience at the Bigger and Better Healthy Options Store in SM City Cebu
Being healthy is not just about eating healthy meals and doing proper exercise. Being healthy is all about knowing the whole story as well. Eating your meat, fruits, and vegetables is as important as knowing how your chickens, pigs, and cows are raised, where your fruits and vegetables are coming from, and what ingredients are in your food and products. This is where Healthy Options comes in. With their several stores nationwide, Healthy Options envisions a healthier world by encouraging us to value our health by eating well and choosing natural products. I have been an occasional Healthy Options customer but during my shopping experience at their newly-redesigned and expanded store in SM City Cebu, I swear I'm going to be a regular. I love that we now have healthier options for our groceries, meat products, vitamins and supplements, and even skincare and beauty products.
Every girl dreams of a beautiful wedding. If possible, she dreams of making it as perfect as can be. Choosing the best for your wedding stresses every girl out (or that's what I've heard and read from the world wide web) — from the theme, color motif, flowers, entourage, venue, food, cake, and of course, the honeymoon! After all the stress caused in planning, and the overwhelming emotions on the wedding day, surely the newly weds would love to go somewhere to relax and spend time with each other. So here, without any further ado, I have listed down the top five honeymoon destinations in the Philippines that will truly captivate you and your partner and make your honeymoon memorable.
On my previous post , you may have read and known that I flew to Manila two weeks ago to attend a Sustainable Diner Forum hosted by WWF or World Wide Fund for Nature. It was only a whole day session but I spent two extra days there. My flight to Manila was on an early Monday morning together with Philip of CebuFinest.com, the forum was set on a Tuesday, and our flight back to Cebu was on a Wednesday evening. Where we stayed throughout the entire trip was at the new and beautiful Seda Vertis North . I had a really great experience at the hotel that I decided to create a separate post for it. Read on to learn more about the hotel and to know if it's a yay or a nay for me.
Filipinos love to eat. That's a fact. Especially now with the digital media era where we're always on the lookout for the latest food trends or almost every new restaurant that pops out in the metro. With this, WWF (World Wide Fund for Nature) Philippines held a forum last September 26, to launch their pioneer project on sustainable consumption and production, The Sustainable Diner: A Key Ingredient for Sustainable Tourism . And I was very fortunate to be one of the few bloggers who got invited to attend. They invited people representing the different sectors to take part in the launching: the Filipino dining public or simply the consumers, the local government units, and the food service industry. It was a day-long session and I would like to share to you what has been discussed and the things I have learned from the Sustainable Diner forum.
Pescador Island and My First Snorkeling Experience
They say that the first time you do something, it's always exciting. And I agree. Though you get anxious and scared when you're just about to do it but when you're actually at it, that's where the excitement and thrill comes in. That's what I felt while we're on the pump boat going to the famous and beautiful Pescador Island. When I was invited to a weekend Moalboal Tour , I was very happy that finally my Pescador Island and Sardine Run dream experience is coming true. But when I was already on the pump boat, just a few minutes away from the island, I was a bit terrified. It would be my first time to try snorkeling. It would be my first time to be in the middle of the open sea. But I have to say that that first time, was one of the best and most memorable experiences I've ever had in my travel history.
Just when I decided to strive on minimizing my sugar intake, I was invited to a gelato ice cream tasting at Luca Gelateria located at Banilad Town Center. My mind kept telling me no but my heart simply wants what it wants. Lame excuses. LOL. So I foolishly followed my heart and said YES to the invitation. And you know what? I had zero regrets. None. Nada. I was very happy with my decision to go because the gelato at Luca Gelateria are to die for! I won't mind going out of my way just to drop by their stall to grab a scoop or two. Sometimes it pays to listen to what your heart really wants right?
Top 4 Best and Affordable Accommodations in Moalboal, Cebu
Over the years, Moalboal has been well-known for being a diving and snorkeling paradise, a docking point to the beautiful Pescador Island, and most especially being a habitat of beautiful sea creatures such as turtles and sardines. It's no wonder that people from different parts of the country and all over the world are flocking in to this small paradise of Cebu. And just last weekend, I was one of the fortunate group who were given the opportunity to experience what Moalboal's natural resources has to offer. And during that trip, I was ascertained that Moalboal is indeed a beautiful place that a whole day there will never be enough. You need at least one night or two to fully take advantage of its beauty. And with this, you'll have to look for nice and comfortable place to stay in without breaking the bank. That's why I decided to share to you guys the top four best and affordable accommodations in Moalboal, Cebu.
Have you ever imagined what it's like to live in an upside down world? Wouldn't it be fun and exciting? So when I received an invitation from Upside Down World Cebu , I honestly screamed with excited and eagerly typed YES in my email response. I have always been curious with modern art museums and being offered the opportunity, I just couldn't say no. It was one Saturday afternoon when we paid Upside Down World Cebu a visit and it was a visit we will never forget.

Viking Whisky Tour – for any size of group
Once again we had 28 loveable whisky freaks to Scotland – The Malt Whisky Association of Finland, who take two whisky tours per year with us, led as usual by the Club President Mika Jansson. We named this tour "The Viking Raid" for obvious reasons. It was advertised in the Association and sold out in 60 seconds!
Day 1: We'll meet you and together transfer to Elgin for lunch, then a beer and whisky stop at the Golspie Inn. Finally to the Wick Hotel for some relaxation in the bar before a delicious three course whisky dinner.
Day 2: We'll start the day at Old Pulteney Distillery. Then on to Gills Bay for the 1pm sailing. We arrive into St. Margaret's Hope and head to Scapa Distillery for a good whisky tour and a chance to sample their drams.
Day 3: A visit to Highland Park Distillery for a brilliant whisky tour. Then we drive to Skara Brae to see this outstanding historic site. At Yesnaby cliffs we can enjoy a whisky tasting with Odin's Hammer before our eyes – an impressive rock formation sticking out of the sea. We then head off to the peat bog, where we can show you the different peat layers (and another whisky tasting). Return to the hotel.
Day 4: We head to Stromness, for free time before the ferry. There are amazing views to the mainland. Next it's Wolfburn Distillery, for a whisky tour, warehouse visit and two drinks of new spirit. Then it's a whisky tour at Clynelish Distillery before heading south to Inverness staying in a good hotel overlooking the river. Come out tonight to sample beers and whisky at the Castle Tavern.
Day 5: We leave Inverness and head to Elgin, where we take a whisky tour of Glen Moray Distillery. Iain and the gang can do wonders here, lots of our guests comment it is the highlight of this whisky tour.
Day 6: Today we take the 6 Pillars whisky tour at Macallan Distillery. Our final whisky tasting is at Duncan Taylor Whiskies of Scotland. The last leg gets you to Aberdeen – probably loaded down with whisky purchases. Freshen up before heading out for final drams and tasty food at Brew Dog Bar – always a big hit. The tour ends at the hotel after breakfast.
We can arrange a very similar trip to this for your group.
The Malt Whisky Assocation of Finland have taken this Scottish whisky tour:
"Liz and Paul, this whisky tour was a dream come true to many who come on the tour. It was great to see you two again, and Mark as well! Many thanks for all the arrangements and kind help!"
"An outstanding whisky tour, incredible views, mind blowing whiskies, hilarious company and phenomenal distilleries. Thank you again Scotland!"
"Hello Paul and Liz, you are awesome people! Nicely organized whisky program. The weather was great! I have no idea how you managed to arrange that! This Norseman is going to bed, and will continue the whisky raid tomorrow."
"On ferry to Orkney even seen a killer whale as we came into port"

Title: Let's Play Soldier, George Washington!
Author: Peter and Connie Roop
Pages: 57
Recommended Ages: 8-12
Star Rating: ★★★★
Remember Let's Drive, Henry Ford? Well, Let's Play Soldier, George Washington! is written by the same authors!
His Life.
When George Washington was born in 1732, no one knew that he would someday be called the father of his country. No one even knew that a new country would be born – but it was, and he was, indeed, a great part of her birth. But before George could ever attend to matters of state, he had a great many other things to deal with.
For example, when George was eleven, his father died. Both of his older brothers had moved away from home to pursue their own careers, so George was the man of the family. Their farm was large and needed lots of money to keep it running. George had to think of some way to help the family! He began practicing to be a surveyor. What he really wanted was to go to England and receive a formal education there, but he knew that was out of the question. So instead, he worked to learn everything that he could right there in Virginia.
His hard work paid off. One day, he met Lord Fairfax, a man who owned several million acres worth of land. Because George was polite, a good rider, and an excellent surveyor, Lord Fairfax asked him to do a survey of his vast estates. George agreed to go.
The journey was hard, but it was good for George. It made him a better surveyor, but also a better woodsman. When the French and Indian War broke out in the fifties, George was helpful as a messenger and also as a scout for the British. Yes, that's right, for the British. In his first war, George was a Colonel with the British and Americans against the French and Indians. In his second war, George was a General with the Americans and French against the British. Funny how that works, isn't it?
Anyway, the short of the story is this – George fought and was a successful soldier. The Americans won the war. Then, George became President – he was successful at that, too. In 1799, when he died, George had been successful at many things, but what we remember most is how well he fought for our country during the war – and after it, too.
Let's Play Soldier, George Washington! brought forth one fact about George Washington's life that I had never learned about. And that was his relationship with his mother. Apparently, (or at least according to this book), Mary Washington was a strong-minded woman with a violent temper. When George accidentally killed one of her favorite horses (which she had forbidden him to ride), she never forgave him. Although she often threw obstacles in his path (she did not allow him possession of his father's farm for years after he legally inherited it), George always treated her with respect.
What I thought was a fascinating fact was included on page thirty-three.
George turned twenty-one on February 22, 1753. George had been born on February 11, 1732. But in 1752, the calendars were changed. This is because the old calendar was off by eleven days. Now, George's birthday was February 22. Some years, when he wanted to, George celebrated his birthday twice! [pgs. 33-35]
After reporting the number of horses that were shot from under him in one battle, the Roops comment, "George Washington was very lucky." [pg. 50] No mention is made of George Washington's great faith in the Christian God.
Ten illustrations were included in Let's Play Soldier, George Washington!, nine of which I thought were exceptionally goofy.
Conclusion. I believe that Let's Play Soldier, George Washington! is worthwhile despite the foolish illustrations. Its content was serious but easy to understand.

In today's clip, Mark Peters shares a new twist that he came up with for faceting pots. By making the cuts while the pot is still cylindrical and adjusting the way the wire moves through the clay, Mark creates an interesting alternative to the typical faceted surface. – Jennifer Harnetty, editor.

Many top-tier musicians spend much of their time on the road. So it's no wonder these road warriors' travels have inspired many songs about the touring life's highs and lows.
Here are 10 of our favorites (add yours below):
"Baggage gone, oh well … "
"I'm smokin' into Texas with the hammer down …"
"My god, they're throwing guitars out there …"

"Like a band of gypsies, we go down the highway …"
"Of travel I've had my share, man"
"Piano man, he makes his stand, in the auditorium"
"Out on the road for forty days …"

I was just watching how the Uttar Pradesh government has asked shopkeepers and malls to shut shop at 7 PM and open at 11 AM to save electricity. The news channel was getting feedback from various people who have been afflicted by perpetual power cuts in various areas of the state. They were all talking about what hardships they are going through.
Predictably, nobody was enraged. People were ranting, but they were not angry. Nobody asked the government, what the fuck it is doing to provide enough electricity to businesses as well as residents? Its job is to guarantee power while entrepreneurs and business people generate wealth for the state, not curtail their activities to make up for its shoddy work and corrupt alliances.
This is the fundamental reason why as a nation we are always surviving on the minimal. We're never enraged, and when we are, it is for the most stupid and nihilistic reasons. Raze a mosque or a temple, people are going to hit the streets and create law and order problem. Make a film, publish a book, or create a painting that "hurts" people's religious sentiments and they burn shops and run amok. Even when a boy and a girl of different caste or religion run away, there is the danger of public unrest. Recently the so-called "oppressed" Dalits burned an entire train because somebody had said something derogatory about Ambedkar but the same people remain mum when their own leaders loot them in broad daylight and relegate their entire generations to poverty, backwardness and illiteracy.
But do you ever see people coming out on streets, burning buses and destroying government property because there are no roads, no schools, no hospitals and no electricity? No. There are Khap panchayats for hanging couples who dare to get married without their elders' consent, but do they ever hang goons and political charlatans for destroying their entire lives? No.
Another example is the annual flooding of Mumbai. Every year there is chaos and not even once people who are really responsible for this are chased on the streets.
I'm not saying that there should be anarchy everywhere – we already have such a simmering situation to be frank. But unless we start showing rage for the right reasons, nothing is going to change.

Well… yeah. It's exactly what it looks like: a card game about pimps and ho's. And just in time for the weekend! It's filthy, degrading, immoral, disgusting, repulsive, explicit, stereotypical, insulting, abhorrent, and a "Premium Quality Card Game." I know because it says so right on the box. And I love it.
Pimp: The Backhanding
Published by White Wolf
2-4 players
Ages 18 and up
60-90 minutes
The purpose of the game is simple: amass the most valuable harem in the 'hood. This occurs in three rounds of play, as each pimp tries to mack new ho's and add them to his harem. But watch out for the backhanding sessions! Some ugly sights can be had when the knuckles start swingin'. When it's all over, every pimp whips out his hobacus and bangs those beads around to calculate the value of his assets. Highest score wins.
Aside from the extreme content of these cards, I think the best part of this game is the remarkably styled art. It's a crazy colorful, over-the-top urban graffiti vibe. Half the feel of the game comes from the visually descriptive cards and their ridiculous titles, every single one of which is a little masterpiece in of itself. Every one except VD Outbreak… that just ain't cool.
For those of you trying to read those fuzzy titles, let me be of some help. From left to right: Go Down (uh… no, he's not riding a mop), VD Outbreak (penicillin – the old standby), and Press-On Nails (disposable weapons). So, on to the pimpin'!
The instructions demand a "card bitch" be selected (it's in the rules) and assigned the task of dividing the cards into their respective piles: Pimps (a pile o' pimps), Ho's (a pile o' ho's), and Draw (extra pimps, modifiers, and dirty tricks). The colors representing each deck also happen to closely resemble a traffic light. Seems ironic that the Ho's are an inviting green, the Pimps are a cautionary yellow, and the precarious Draw cards are a dangerous red. I'm just sayin'… that, and you'll also need a six-sided die.
Once the cards have been sorted and stacked, the "card bitch" deals five Ho's face up in the center of the table. These are the current streetwalkers for the round. Then the "bitch" deals every player five pimps, which are immediately placed face up in front of each player. This is your posse. Just like in real life! Finally, everybody is dealt five Draw cards. Any Draw deck pimps may be played immediately, otherwise the cards are kept in each player's hand for use when the opportune moment arises to assault, undermine, or otherwise devalue your neighbor's harem.
Here are a few of the "heroes" of Pimps: The Backhanding. That's Rush Daddy and Kaiser von Crane. He's German! You'll notice they both have a rather flaccid backhanding value of +1, while their respective macking values of +2 and +3 are of more substantial girth. Gross.
These are a couple of the hard working gals you'll have the opportunity to mack, I mean court. Notice Sheryl has a crack pipe and a cash value of $25, the same as about three frozen pizzas. Eimi, on the other hand, demands $150, a hot iron, and your total submission. Kind of a niche market, these two.
This image is here for no reason other than to tip my hat to whoever drew this trio of cards… obviously from one of the deepest wells of spite on earth. The three ho's: Ben's Sister, Ben's Mom, and Ben's Mom (Chinese version). I'm not sure who Ben is, but one of the pimp's name is Ben and one of the play testers' name is is Ben. One in the same? Who knows. Only the exceptionally gifted gentleman who drew those cards knows. May he revel in his magnificent spite for all of eternity. But we're off track… again, and just as we were about to start the game. Anyway, each round consists of three phases: Macking, Backhanding, and Money Laundering.
Phase One: Macking
Each player places one pimp next to the ho he would like to try and win for his "team of employees." Keep in mind, a pimp may only be used once per round, NOT once per phase. Plan accordingly. Nothing is worse than a poorly managed posse. The pimp with the highest macking score after all modifiers and the obligatory die roll are considered gets to saddle up the ho and ride her back to his stable… (too much?) Pimp's Mack value + macking modifier cards + die roll = Mack Score. Pretty simple.
Phase Two: Backhanding
If you came out with the short end of the pimp cane during the macking phase, not to worry, you still have a chance to render those ungrateful ho's useless to their new pimps in the backhanding phase. During this part of the round, players may assign pimps who did not take part in the macking phase to an opposing pimp's ho that was just won via the mack attack. The winning pimp must defend those ho's, whether he wants to or not. You know it's hard out there for a pimp. But, just as in phase one, the pimp with the highest backhanding total is the winner. Pimp's Backhanding value + backhanding modifier cards + die roll = Backhanding Score. Just as simple.
Phase Three: Money Laundering
Any ho's you have successfully macked and defended are now yours and are immune to any further backhanding attacks by jealous pimps, however, players may use any other appropriate cards that might alter the value of the ho's won by anybody this round. When all pimp masters agree they have no more cards to play, the "card bitch" deals out five more lovely ladies to the center of the table, hands out five additional Draw cards to everyone (you get to keep any unused cards from the previous round) and the next round begins. Remember, it's three rounds and out. After the third round, everybody adds up the value of their ho's. Highest total value wins.
Before we say goodbye, I thought I'd leave you with a few of the standard fare Draw cards. First up is Funky Bass Line. Not much to say, funk just feels soooo good. That second card… you are correct, it says Pimptonite. Classy! And for our connoisseurs of fine cinema, that last card is called Porno Film with Donkey. I think it's a foreign flick. Either way, it certainly breathes new life into the term "beast of burden."
Now… start struttin'!

Molinaro Picks Up Bipartisan Support
Millbrook Mayor & Washington Supervisor Support Molinaro Re-election EffortPoughkeepsie – County Executive Marc Molinaro received bipartisan endorsements today from Dutchess County elected leaders from the Village of Millbrook and the Town of Washington.
"I have always felt that party affiliation has no place in this County Executive race in that Marc Molinaro is the best person for the job and has done a tremendous job since he has been in office," said Laura Hurley, Mayor of Millbrook and an enrolled Democrat. "As a local official, we are all aware that he is one of us. He truly understands the challenges we face every day with our residents and the limited amount of money we have to provide services to our citizens. I am delighted to support him for another term."
"I have known Marc Molinaro both personally and professionally for over 20 years as we both served as Mayors of small villages in the 1990's and he has always been there for me. I knew without a doubt that he was somebody special and destined for bigger things. I have followed his progress for years and I knew he would be perfect for the job of County Executive," said Gary Ciferri, Supervisor of the Town of Washington. "It is no surprise to me that he has done a wonderful job and he has my full support for another term."
"Dutchess County has some of the finest public officials in New York State and these leaders are an example of that," County Executive Molinaro said. "These past 4 years, they have made tough decisions and supported a transformation that has put this county back on solid financial ground. I am grateful for their endorsement and if re-elected, look forward to continuing Dutchess County's comeback together."
County Executive Molinaro came into office with nearly all of the county's fund balance appropriated. Facing a $40 million budget gap he turned this "grim" situation into 3 straight budgets under the mandated state tax cap, built a budget surplus of over $18 million this year, replenished the fund balance to $40 million, and improved the county's bond rating to among the highest in the State. The 2015 county budget provides the largest tax levy reduction in 14 years and qualifies county taxpayers for a rebate check. The county's fiscal condition and economic position continues to steadily improve.
County Executive Molinaro was cited by the Poughkeepsie Journal as an "important political voice in the mid-Hudson Valley", the Albany Times Union as one of Albany's "true reformers," and the Capitol newspaper as one of our state's "forty under forty" leaders. He has been honored by the then-Greater Southern Dutchess Chamber of Commerce as one of the Hudson Valley's 40 leaders under 40, by Astor Services for his public service, Pace Land Use Law Center with their Groundbreakers Award and the Anderson Center for Autism for his advocacy of those with special needs.
In 1994, when he was just 18, Molinaro was elected to the Tivoli Village Board of Trustees – making him the youngest person ever elected to office in the State of New York. The very next year, he became the youngest mayor in the United States. Molinaro was re-elected mayor five times and elected four times to the Dutchess County Legislature, where he chaired the Budget, Finance and Personnel Committee and led the effort to reform Dutchess County's Child Protective Services. Molinaro served as a State Assemblyman from 2007-2011.
Marc lives in the Village of Red Hook with his family.
Election Day is November 3, 2015. For more information, visit Marc Molinaro online atwww.molinarofordutchess.com or find him on Facebook and Twitter.

Scoop over your favorite greens – I used arugula in the pictures below – for a fresh summer salad!

What to do to send monthly ?
Monthly joy does not deliver, but also come on the eve of an important event.What do you do, sit in the corner and be afraid to move?No one woman is not attractive, and therefore the question arises, what to do to not go monthly on your schedule?
Just have to say, if the question "what to do to send monthly" arises in connection with a suspected pregnancy, and so you want to get rid of it, the following methods are provided below, you will not fit.In this case, you must consult a doctor and not to experiment themselves.If we turn to the gynecologist with this problem, explaining the need for this upcoming holiday or festive event, then any good doctor will advise you.Most likely, he inveighs of violence on his body.Yes, there are drugs that cause menstruation, but change all the hormones, and with this not to be trifled.In addition to medications, there are folk remedies, which cause periods, but they also are not harmless.And they are your doctor will advise to apply only in extreme cases.A vacation due to such circumstances, of course, can not disrupt.But, despite these warnings, women still take medications that accelerate the arrival of menstruation and using traditional methods.
Traditional methods
Thinking about what to do, to go month earlier, women have become obsessed with this idea and completely forget about the harm to the organism.Even innocuous herbs act on each different.And so be careful and think about it once, and you really need it, because it will bring down cycle, and restore it will not be easy.
- The most common way to call ahead of schedule monthly (instead of hormones) is to stop taking oral contraceptives.Menses may start earlier, but better to carry out this procedure under the supervision of your doctor.
- sometimes come before menstruation is ascorbic acid.For the effect to be taken 2 g askorbinki and hover on their feet night.But remember that acid is not good for your body, and this number may adversely affect the stomach.
How to speed up the appearance of menstruation folk remedies
The most common method of joining monthly - this with a bay leaf or parsley:
- bay leaf brew as a tea (3 leaf to one cup of boiling water), drink it is necessary to 3 cups aday.Drink dangerous very strong broth, then, should be to follow the exact dosage;
- parsley broth, on the contrary, can be used safely.Take it for 3-4 days before the arrival of the monthly plan for 0.5 cups twice a day.If you use a lot of parsley with dill, then the month can go a few days earlier;
- monthly to quickly start, you can drink oregano.Buy at the pharmacy ready bags with grass, prepare a decoction and drink it like a normal tea;
- very common use tansy recommendations sage or nettle to call monthly.The first two plants alone can not be used, if to err on the dose, can be poisoned.Nettle is better not to use it because it strongly thicken the blood;
- often to hasten the coming month, we recommend taking a hot bath with salt and iodine.The effectiveness of this method has not been confirmed.In addition, these procedures can take people who have never experienced problems with the heart or blood vessels.

One of the hardest things for me when it comes to being a mom is realizing that my baby is no longer a baby. I was so overjoyed Sarah turned one in September, but at the same time that joy was also met with much sadness. My baby, who I carried for 36 weeks and labored with for seven grueling hours (and I promise I am not being over dramatic at all), is now a walking, talking youngin' who would rather play with tupperware and baby dolls than cuddle in her mommy's arms.
Since I have come to realize my beloved Sarah will more than likely be my last, I have compiled a "sappy" list of moments from my experience with four kids that not just I, but most moms in general, either live for or dread. Which side are you on?
In order from "sappiest" to "aww, my baby!"
1. Baby No Longer Fits into Your Chest or the Crook of Your Arm
This is usually the first sign that your baby is starting to not be a baby any more. There is something about a baby fitting into that one spot of your arm that makes me all warm and fuzzy. Those snuggles are just the best. Take lots of pictures. Try to remember and cherish because they grow quick. The crook of your arm grows to accommodate the size of your child — but the newborn, the true baby — THAT is what you want to remember. It's the one test that truly lets you know your tiny buddle of joy is growing up.
2. Toddler Hugs
It doesn't matter how upset you are, when a toddler hugs you, it's a wonderful feeling that can lift even the saddest of spirits. I have seen the grumpiest of old men cower when their 2-year-old grandchild gave them a hug. You can't help but smile. The intention is pure. There is absolutely nothing like it.
3. Saying "Goodbye" to an All Gums Smile
I loved looking at those precious gummy grins. At the time, it feels like forever. You wonder if a tooth will ever appear. You imagine, in disbelief, what a mouth full of pearly whites will look like. This tiny person you carried forever who has never needed teeth … suddenly does? Besides the fact that sometimes teething can be an absolute nightmare, I miss the drooling toothless grins. (But at least my year old Sarah still has the drool.)
4. When They No Longer Want You to Walk Them Into School/Daycare
Sometimes this can happen sooner rather than later. Even if you still have to walk them into daycare, they may not want you to hold their hand because its so "uncool" as Andrew told me once (4 years ago), and even my oldest thought it was "so lame" for me to walk her into school for the first day of 5th grade last year. At least I have my youngest two, Sarah and Isla, who haven't started school yet. But I'm still slightly worried how Day 1 will go, since they don't even like my help walking them up the stairs.
5. When They no Longer Need Your Help
This was probably harder for my husband than me. Your child(ren) will always need you no matter what, it's when THEY think they don't need you that's the hard part. Whether it's putting on clothes or walking up stairs, they want to gain independence early on and as parents it's our job to foster that independence — even if it means we are secretly crying on the inside.
6. The First Day of (insert whatever you want here)
Gymnastics, ballet, karate, school, daycare, college — whatever activity it is, the first day always brings much excitement and tears. I jumped for joy when Andrew turned three and I could finally put him in a sport. And currently we are counting down until December when Isla turns three so we can enroll her into ballet or let her play basketball. A much needed break — hooray! Another realization baby is growing up — cue tears!
7. Going from Mommy–>Mom/Daddy–>Dad
Or in my case, "Hey woman who is supposed to feed us and buy us stuff!" Kidding, kidding (kind of). But I love being called mommy. In fact I call my own mom, mommy still. But now my two oldest refer to me as mom. I only get mommy on birthdays, Christmas or random trips to Target when they want something. Truly sad for this "mommy" heart.
8. Goodbye Nick Jr., Hello Disney!
I know the great TV debate can be a big deal. I, for one, let my kiddos watch television. All in moderation, right? I remember Noggin (pre-Nick Jr.) on the screen and my oldest Alyssa and I watching Oswald and 64 Zoo Lane together when she was a tot. Next thing I know it was, "Mom take me to the movies to see High School Musical 3" … and then came the Jonas Brothers. With Andrew, my oldest son, it's currently Marvel everything (and I mean everything). I enjoy our family TV/movie times together (and it's not the only way we bond, but we are a big movie buffs). Next it will be high school football games and nights out with friends just to avoid family-time with mom and dad and siblings. Until that moment comes, I am going bask in spending Saturday evenings watching "Doctor Who" on the BBC with the kids. They have already pinky swore they would never give up on Who. And I am holding them to it.
9. When They Discover the Truth about Santa & the Tooth Fairy
I know not all families participate in Santa, the Easter Bunny and other fictional characters, but our family does. For us, there is something special about seeing their childlike wonder and excitement over the "magic" — it reminds me of the innocence and pure joy children experience in the simplest of things. But goodness, between the daily antics of Elf on a Shelf, the monetary demands of the tooth fairy and the strangeness of the Easter bunny leaving a chocolate version of himself to be eaten by toddlers, I do have a feeling the day when all four stop believing, the Mr. and I breathe a collectively sigh of relief, along with a little sadness. What other reason will we have to leave cookies out all night and write weird notes for the kids to read the next morning? (I mean we could do it on any random Tuesday if we wanted to, but that's no fun).
10. Hearing "I Love You" for the First Time from Your Child
I still remember the exact moment when I heard "I love you" from my each of my children (don't worry, I will share how to have an astounding mom memory some other time). This is, without a shadow of a doubt, a moment that I will carry in my heart forever — especially when accompanied by kisses. Once perfected, kids will always say "I love you!" at the sweetest moments, usually in public, really loud so everyone can hear. Which is perfectly fine by me.

Some of my friends in the kite world recently made a really cool video, with the help of a video camera mounted on a radio-controlled quad-rotor helicopter. What you'll see are members of a kite performance team, flying quad-line sport kites (two lines controlled by each hand with the aid of a handle). Enjoy!

TaxPoint has created a fast, easy-to-use online income tax preparation web application. They offer a free version, for those with just a 1040 EZ form up to very complex tax preparation for companies, all online, at an affordable price. Best thing is that you can do it on your time, any time of the day. They just needed a website to market it, and someone who could design their tax estimation software to look good and work well.
TaxPoint was almost done with their application and was preparing it for prime time. The only issue was that they were developers, not designers. They needed some help on designing the look and feel of their application (i.e. which controls and colors to use, do we use drop-down, check boxes or sliders?). Clarity's lead designer took on the challenge and designed the UI/UX for their online refund estimation calculator. We then built them a website to market their application, provide answers and technical support and transact the sales of their product.
Clarity started with the UI/UX, picking colors, controls, layout and more so their developers could be working on building the design into their application while Clarity built them a site. Clarity built them a site on DNN Evoq Professional, using two production licenses for load balancing and performance. We also helped optimize the pages for SEO, and provided a small bit of training so the TaxPoint team could take on all the future work inhouse.
Your taxes done right.
The website was built for mobile responsiveness, so anyone on their phone or tablet could also fill in their taxes or get an estimate. The site was built for performance to handle tens of thousands of users and grow with the company as their sales grew. The calculator was re-designed and is now extremely intuitive as to reduce technical support phone calls and guide users through a sometimes difficult process.
The CMS chosen was DNN Evoq Professional (Content). HTML5, CSS3 and Modernizr were used for the responsive template. Numerous Telerik and other controls for the tax estimation calculator.

Lunes Latino: Mexican Hot Dogs
Ditch the ketchup and mustard and try some fresh salsa on your next grilled hot dog. Mely shows you how to make these delicious Mexican hot dogs in no time at all, and your family will ...
- 10 Rhodes Texas Rolls, thawed but still cold
- 10 Hot Dog Wieners, your choice
- 10 Bacon Strips
- 3 Large Tomatoes, diced
- ¼ Onion, finely diced
- 1-2 tbsp Cilantro (Coriander), finely diced
- 1 tsp Salt
- ½ tsp Garlic Powder
- ¼ tsp Pepper
- To taste Mayonnaise
- Some Flour
Fast food in Mexico is not the drive-thru, but small walk up shops, carts, and huts where you can purchase a quick, yummy, and inexpensive meal. These establishments will prepare a meal right in front of you. You can sit or stand while you eat and determine your level of hunger so that you can order another before you finished the last. Talk about fresh! The Mexican Hot Dog is very popular and found mostly sold by cart vendors. At my last neighborhood block party I prepared enough to share. It was a great hit!!! So, get rid of your Ketchup, Mustard, and relish and try this amazing twist. One more thing I should add, you can grill these in your BBQ or in your frying pan but just don't add any oil as your bacon will do the trick. For this recipe, we will use the outdoor grill and enjoy the warm summer outdoors.
Dust each roll with flour and roll each roll into a 5 x 2- inch bun. You can do that by hand by just rolling the roll into a 5 in long tube and then pulling the dough out so that it spreads to about 2 inches.
Place each on a baking sheet sprayed with non-stick cooking spray and cover with sprayed plastic wrap.
Now, let the dough rise until it doubles in size.
Remove the wrap and bake at 350ºF for 15 to 20 Minutes. I baked them for 15 minutes and they looked like this.
While your oven is pre-heating, dice your Tomatoes, Onions, and Cilantro.
Combine your Tomato, Onion, Cilantro, Salt, Garlic Powder, and Pepper. Mix them together and set it aside.
While your buns are baking, take your Bacon strips and wrap them around your wieners.
Now, get your grill going nice and hot.
While your grill is warming up, go ahead and take your buns and with a small sharp knife, slit each bun so that you have space for your wiener.
Add Mayo to your liking.
Now grill your hot dogs. My handsome nephew Martin Corona worked the grill for me.
Now put it all together…. Add the cooked wiener with bacon to your bun with Mayo. Add the fresh salsa mixture over the top….. AND……
Enjoy your Mexican Hot Dog…. Seriously, you will not believe how good it is.
My Handsome nephew Martin Corona graded this dish a 9 out of 10. He was amazed at what a difference freshly made buns could make. We agreed that you can really taste the quality of the Rhodes dough in every yummy bite.

This post is part of a social shopper marketing insight campaign with Pollinate Media Group®, Kellogg's and The J.M. Smucker Company but all my opinions are my own. #pmedia #SamsClubBTS http://my-disclosur.es/OBstV
In my first semester of graduate school, a panel of librarians working in different capacities in libraries around Austin came to speak to one of my classes.
I can't remember a thing about this panel except that one of the librarians over the children's department of the Austin Public Library system, talking about the summer reading program, said that the only prizes they gave out were books.
"We don't want kids to read to get a donut or a free pizza. The reward for reading is more reading."
This is probably in the top five most memorable things from my grad school experience, and I think about this all the time (and remember it when I read studies about how children who get a reward for coloring end up not wanting to color without a reward).
Anyway, while I'm always looking for ways to make reading fun and engaging for my children, I also try to make sure I'm not rewarding reading with unrelated prizes and incentives.
One thing that makes reading fun for me is sharing books with friends, and given the popularity of book clubs, reading groups, Goodreads, and other book-sharing sites and programs, I know I'm not alone.
I'm not quite up to starting a book club for my girls (yet!) but when we picked up a box of Kellogg's Frosted Flakes at Sam's Club last week and I saw the Scholastic "Start School Like a Champion" offer, the 2 for 1 book program, I thought of a fun way for my girls to share their love of books with friends and family.
When you buy any participating Kellogg's® or J.M. Smucker product at Sam's Club® from now through the end of September, you can pick one Scholastic book (they have more than 80 options) and you'll get a copy and one copy will be donated to a local school.
There's already two books for one purchase with this program, but I loved the idea of getting more than one reader for the book that came to our house.
After we read our copy a few times, I had the girls pick a friend or cousin they wanted to send it on to.
We wrote a little note in the front of the book with the date and a favorite page to look for, and then wrapped it in brown packaging and sent it off via media mail (which is super cheap – about $2.50 to ship a book anywhere in the U.S.).
My girls love mail, and we enjoyed imagining their cousins opening the mailbox and finding a surprise package just for them.
Because if there's anything better than reading a good book, it's sharing that book with someone you love.
P.S. Redeeming a book through this program is super easy – just buy any participating Kellogg's or The J.M. Smucker Company product by 9/30/2016, upload your receipt at FreeBookOffer.com/Sams within 30 days of purchase, and then pick your book, while supplies last!

Returns to Education in Sri Lanka: A Pseudo Panel Approach
This study employs the pseudo-panel approach to estimate returns to education among income earners in Sri Lanka. Pseudo-panel data are constructed from nine repreated cross-sections of Sri Lanka's Labor Force Survey data from 1997-2008 for workers born during 1953-1974. The results show that for males, one extra year of education increases monthly earnings by about 5 per cent using the pseudo panel estimation rather than 8 per cent as in the OLS estimation. This indicates that not controlling for unobservables such as ability and motivation bias the OLS estimation of returns upwards by about 3 per cent on average. It also suggests that males with higher ability seem to be acquiring more years of education contrary to what has been observed recently in countries such as Thailand (Warunsiri and McKnown 2010) where the opportunity cost of education seems to be high.

These days, it seems that the arrival of fall means the arrival of pumpkin spice flavored everything at the supermarket. Pumpkin spice coffee, pumpkin spice cereal, even pumpkin spice lip balm. While some may bemoan this trend, we love pumpkin spice!
However, we've noticed that the homemade pumpkin spiced goods seem to taste better than many of the commercial options. This might be because when you make them yourself, you can control how much and which spices are included, tailoring the mixture exactly to your tastes. Commercial options are generally under-spiced for our tastes.
This pumpkin cookie recipe meets all the requirements to be a great cookie. It is moist, well-spiced and still tastes great after a couple of days. The twist to this pumpkin spice cookie is the addition of mini chocolate chips. The small size chips are great in this cookie and are, in our opinion, preferable over regular sized chips. The larger chocolate chips can take away from the pumpkin and spices, which throws off the flavor balance of the cookie.
Try this recipe out this week to celebrate a couple of food holidays: Wednesday, October 26th is National Pumpkin Day and Friday, October 28th is National Chocolate Day!
In a medium bowl, add flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt, ground cinnamon, ground allspice, ground nutmeg. Mix to combine and set aside.
In a large bowl, cream together butter and both sugars.
Add two eggs and mix.
Stir in pumpkin.
Carefully add the dry ingredients from step one. Stir until just combined.
Add the mini chocolate chips.
Scoop dough onto parchment lined baking sheets.
Bake 9-10 minutes at 375°F. Pumpkin perfection awaits!

A Muslim woman and a group of her friends took the Internet by storm last week after filing a lawsuit against a restaurant in California, accusing them of discrimination.
According to Sara Farsakh, the Urth Caffe where they were dining asked them to leave their table, an act which they deemed a result of their wearing Islamic headscarfs. However, the establishment does have a 45-minute limit, as tables are in high demand at the eatery.
Well, it looks like the tables are being turned, as the Urth Cafe has filed a countersuit against the women.
TheBlaze reports, Farsakh told KCBS-TV she felt "embarrassed, outraged and shocked by the discrimination" and added the restaurant was half empty at the time.
"I truly believe had I been sitting there with my friends that were not wearing headscarfs, we would not have been asked to leave," Farsakh added, noting other customers who witnessed the April 22 incident told her they'd been seated longer and weren't asked to leave.
Farsakh also recounted her experience in a Facebook post, which included video of police showing up to escort them off the premises.
But after their lawsuit was filed, Urth Caffe indicated it planned on countersuing — and it has made good on that promise.
Attorney David Yerushalmi of the American Freedom Law Center, which represents Urth Caffe, told LawNewz the co-owner of the restaurant, Jilla Berkman, is Muslim and many of her customers are Muslim or Arab.
"This lawsuit claiming religious discrimination is a fraud and a hoax on the courts and the media," Yershalmi told LawNewz in a statement. "It is nothing short of an abuse of process to extort public apologies and other accommodations from my client, Urth Caffe."
Yerushalmi noted in a court document filed Wednesday that there was "an underlying agenda for this litigation that has nothing to do with justice," LawNewz reported, adding that Yerushalmi characterized Farsakh as a college-aged activist who "self-promotes her involvement in radical organizations."
The women's attorney, Mohammad Tajsar, countered Yerushalmi by saying the accusation of an "underlying agenda" to the discrimination suit was "totally unsubstantiated."
Tajsar went on to say the restaurant moved the ladies because it's a "high tension time" for Muslims in the area and Urth Caffe didn't want to make customers uncomfortable.
Given that Farsakh is considered to be some sort of activist, it wouldn't be all that surprising to discover the whole situation was fabricated in order to push some sort of cause into the media.
Our culture is one that seems to be perpetually offended, so it's really difficult to decipher when there is a legitimate complaint and when there's not.
Something does seem a little fishy with this situation though. It'll be interesting to see what comes out of the hearing, which is scheduled for next Tuesday.

In honor of Burnt My Fingers' second anniversary, I'm revisiting our most popular posts of all time. Here are the top five non-recipe posts:
- The Sauce that Made Mr. Durkee Famous. This was originally posted on my marketing blog, but didn't gain any traction till it was re-directed here. I am so happy so many people are curious about my obsession with this product and its provenance.
Turkey Joints from Nora's of Rome, New York. Another food provenance post, this about a regional upstate New York product. Who says there isn't interest in our emerging food scene?
Can I Reuse Pickle Juice? I expect this is a question lots of people type into the Google search box, and I am happy to provide the answer. (Short version: no.)
Red Boat Fish Sauce… da Shizz! Red Boat is good stuff, especially the small bottle of concentrated sauce that I dole out so carefully I've hardly made a dent in it. Read why and you'll never buy Tiparos again.
The next two pageview winners are for "About" and "Stuff to Buy" but those are technically pages not posts, so the final spot goes to:
- Noonday Onions. A very simple ode to an unassuming but delicious varietal from Texas. I'm surprised to see it rank so high; guess a lot of people are curious about the origin of the peculiar name. Read it and find out.
Next: my personal favorite recipe posts.

The battery life has become a concern with tremendous growth in cellular technology has been witnessed by past recent year such as 2G, 3G, 4G, smart phones with touch screens, smart watches and many more that has been exponentially increasing with time. But the batteries required to power up this smart gadgets are been implicated to grow less with more time.
So the battery plays a vital role to give an awesome feature for android users for long term standby by and processing tasks. Most of the smart phone uses Lithium batteries that might be Lithium polymer or Lithium Ion. The smart phone screen and apps consume much power from batteries and in this article, we have discussed few tips to boost up your battery life and to reduce the drain out battery power.
These days smartphone are been manufactures to be light in weight and thin in size. The most challenging task is to provide more charging capacity of battery with less size. The battery occupies the largest space in a smart phone to power up the gadget. As being a smart phone users, we cannot start our own research on batteries to increase their capability but we could follow some easy tips to keep it from early draining out.
First thing to be considered in this regard is, most of the smart phone batteries has low voltage issues that means it's always preferable to keep the battery power from 25% to 95% without full charging or discharging it that give more working life for itself.
1. Choose appropriate Display screen color: Many ALMOND display screen laminate light for bright pixels which consumes more battery power where as less illumination is observed for dark pixels in turns results in less power consumption of battery power.
2. Seldom use of vibration alerts: Its always preferable to use notifications will no vibration mode or alert in order to reduce the power drain of battery. Many might like the buzz sound from vibrations but its not a unique way to have alert notifications, its just consumes or exhausts your battery power.
3. Avoid multitasking for long time: The processor operational and computation speed of an android smartphone or any gadget is directly proportional to draining out of battery power. The more time processor performs multi tasks, the more power is consumed. So its always suggested to limit multi tasking of your smart phone devices to saver battery power.
4. Manual vs Auto updates: Its better to always be aware of software updates done in you android mobile. So preferable solution is to stick for manual updates than auto updates the save battery from draining out.
Also Read : World Wi-Fi Day
5. Avoid Mobile addiction: It sounds something strange but the main reason concerning your battery drain out is to be addicted to your phone usage beyond limits with respect to time. As phone display is the major source of power consumption, the more the android mobile is awake, the more it consumes power.
6. Mobile network: Mobile network always plays a major role in smart phone battery power consumption, based on the bandwidth allocation. The phone is always on and in continuous process of searching nearby network. If the bandwidth availability is good, the power consumption is less during standby mode of mobile.
7. Prefer battery save mode settings: Battery save mode is more preferred in standby state of mobile to reduce battery power consumption.
8. Auto schedule time on/off: Your smart phone need not to be always connected to network or internet. Use only when required for long lasting battery life.
9. Use genuine batteries from authenticated manufacturer: Usage of genuine/ original batteries from authenticated manufacturers is always suggested so as to avoid any damage to smart phone or any health hazards. It also make sure to give good promising results for power back up ratings.
10. Use on of the best battery saver app: Better use one of the battery saver app to avoid battery drain out and extend the battery life.
There are many more things/ safety precaution for healthy battery life. We appreciate your suggestions for more of it.

OrlandoVirginia Woolf
Virginia Woolf's Orlando 'The longest and most charming love letter in literature', playfully constructs the figure of Orlando as the fictional embodiment of Woolf's close friend and lover, Vita Sackville-West. Spanning three centuries, the novel opens as Orlando, a young nobleman in Elizabeth's England, awaits a visit from the Queen and traces his experience with first love as England under James I lies locked in the embrace of the Great Frost. At the midpoint of the novel, Orlando, now an ambassador in Costantinople, awakes to find that he is a woman, and the novel indulges in farce and irony to consider the roles of women in the 18th and 19th centuries. As the novel ends in 1928, a year consonant with full suffrage for women. Orlando, now a wife and mother, stands poised at the brink of a future that holds new hope and promise for women.

Sheilds Gazette: "Close eye on our changing coast"
SOUTH Tyneside's ever-changing coastline is coming under scrutiny as never before.
Borough residents can now log on to the Environment Agency's website to receive updates on coastal erosion.
Six local authorities, including South Tyneside, have worked closely with the agency to produce coastal erosion information similar to the flood maps which are already available online.
It brings together data from many different sources, based on the best scientific information available, and in an accessible and simple format.
The data will help the public and local authorities with planning and funding decisions for flood and coastal defence schemes.
Clare Steward, of the Environment Agency's asset system management team. said: "The North East is not a region where there is an imminent risk to properties from coastal erosion. However it is still important that local authorities factor it into their plans for the future.
"Change along our coastline is a natural and ongoing process. Where the sea meets the cliffs and shores, it causes the sediment or rocks to be broken down and washed away. Erosion can happen under any conditions, but its rate tends to increase when waves are powerful and water levels are high – for instance during storms or high winds."
Over the last two years there have been major examples of coastal erosion with large sections of cliff collapsing at Frenchman's Bay and Marsden.
Meanwhile, the council currently has plans for a £5m coastal defence wall to protect South Shields's seafront.
The existing 100-year-old Littlehaven wall is nearing the end of its lifespan as an effective defence against flooding.
Now the council wants to create a stepped sea wall leading down to the beach from a concrete promenade.
The scheme will be funded with £4m from the local authority budget – the Environment Agency (EA) is expected to meet the shortfall.
Meanwhile, work started earlier this year on £171,934 scheme to plant more than a quarter of a million clumps of marram and lyme grass on South Shields beach.
The grass will grow up to five feet high, and its roots will bind the sand and hold the dunes in place.
The project is also being undertaken with cash from the EA.

I Feel Earthquakes More Often Than They Happen
Coming to California in the Age of Schwarzenegger
(If any tax is payable it will be calculated and shown at checkout.)
Preview (read now) Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
moreFrom one of our most astute contemporary writers, Amy Wilentz, comes an irreverent, inventive portrait of the state of California and its unlikely governor, Arnold Schwarzenegger. The prizewinning author, a lifelong easterner and an outsider in the West, takes the reader on a picaresque journey from exclusive Hollywood soirees to a fantasy city in the Mojave desert, from the La Brea Tar Pits to celebrity-besotted Sacramento, from the tents of Skid Row to surf-drunk Malibu, from a snowbird retreat near Mexico to the hippie preserve of tide-beaten Big Sur, along the way offering up sharp observations on politics, fund-raising, the water supply, the Beach Boys, earthquake preparedness, home economics, catastrophism, movie-star politicians, political movie stars, Charlie Manson, and location scouts who want to rent your house in order to make television commercials for bathroom wall cleansers or Swedish banks.
Wilentz moved to Los Angeles from a Manhattan wounded by September 11, only to discover a paradise marred by fire, flood, and mudslides. In what seemed like a joke to her, a Democratic governor nicknamed Gumby was about to be ousted by an Austrian muscleman in a bizarre election promoted by a millionaire whose business was car alarms. Intrigued, she set out to find the essence of the quirky, trailblazing state. During her travels, she spots celebrities but can't quite place them, drops in on famous salons with habitués like Warren Beatty and Arianna Huffington, and visits the neglected office of one very special 9,000-year-old woman.
Plunging into the traffic of California, Wilentz noodles out meaning in some of the least likely of places; she sees the political in the personal and the personal in the political. By now an expert on tremors real and imagined, she offers readers on both coasts insights into where California stands today, and America as well. less

Hey guys;
I'm planning on putting my yak on sawhorses and work on some maintenance. My main concern is smoothing out the scratches on the bottom and possibly sealing the keel against
further damage. I've researched several articles but would like to ask the forum members for some tips. After smoothing out the scratches, is there a sealant that you may have tried
to use to help preserve the underside of your boat?
Thanks in advance!
