And this summer i will be wearing...lace. I love it! I think it is so feminine, so simple and can make anything elegant and more glamorous. Not many lace has been across the runways for this Spring/Summer collection but I have definitely seen it around the shops and It's definitely on my wish list! Here is a quick look at what I mean and what I will be looking for this season ♥
Is it just me or is black lace sexy? I think it's because it is used alot on lingerie.
This beautiful top can be found here
This is a top that is actually in my 'wishlist' pile on Mango.com. Its a light pink with crochet/lace materical and a drop back; simple, pretty and girly. Get it before me here.
The perfect lightweight item this summer; white lace skirt or shorts. It is the garnment where you could just slip on with a cardigan and you've made an easy, cute outfit. This one is from H&M (but I also adore a pair of lace shorts or the scallop cut ones that big right now.)
Red! It's not a colour you think of when you picture lace but this bright and beautiful dress is just stunning in this colour- in white i think i would have overlooked it! I wear a lot of red, I think it's my blonde hair that compliments the colour so it's one of my prefered colour in dresses, my prom dress was red, my christmas dresses are red and i have a couple short-at-front-long-at-back dresses. Grab this one before it goes; it's pure sophisticaiton.

It is sooooo good to be home. Lots of fun, family stuff, beach time, too much good food, not a lot of down time. Though I did manage to read Ken Follett's book "World Without End".. 1014 pages. Good read and I loved having the time to read. Life keeps me busy and I don't always have a lot of time for reading, one of my passions.
I didn't have a lot of time for art, did a little, but it was minimal. We had lots to see.. the wide open expanse of land driving through Texas. While I love the wide open feeling of space, I do miss my mountains. Padre Island was a nice beach, though incredibly windy. And I am not a big fan of wind. Was hoping to find more beach driftwood, but it was really sparse. I have several projects in mind using driftwood so will have to do some walks along our local rivers here at home.
We did see some great sand art.. This was a part of Sandfest held the weekend before we got there..so we were seeing the leftover art. All the vendors, crowds of people were gone.. so actually it was a nice time to see all the art. It was still roped off, though some had been tromped. Some really expert sculptures!
So today is unpacking, regrouping and then jumping back into work... vacations over!!!
Back to the real world. But it was fun while it lasted.

That's the word today, according to Nintendo: the Switch is the fastest selling console of all time, beating out even the Wii.
As these numbers are based on Nintendo's own internal estimates, this might not be 100% reflected in Switch consoles actually in consumers' hands. Still, the current totals stand at 4.8 million units sold in 10 months, where the Wii moved 4 million in the same amount of time.
The remarkable part? This is a console that I SEARCHED for, for months with no luck, and have only recently seen in stock on store shelves for more than a day. In contrast, the Wii was everywhere and everyone I knew had no issue picking one up. I can only imagine what 2018 will bring with a higher supply of the very in demand portable console. Congrats to Nintendo on an amazing launch and thanks for making the gaming world even more competitive!

text: Hi, I get pain in my right side especially after drinking alcohol, also with fast food but not as severe. I have posted on here previously but have since had a fibroscan score of 4.9kpa (12.4 in February) seen numerous specialists who cannot provide a proper diagnosis. Pain radiates all down right side of the back especially the shoulder blade area. Also had a clear liver multi Scan in June. I've had basically all scans/tests available for the liver except a biopsy. It looks like the previous fibroscan of 12.4 was an overestimation because I remember the doctor struggling to get a reading at the time.

When does an excessively violent zombie flick from the 1970s permit itself to be something more than a low grade horror movie? I know it seems a bit counter-intuitive to begin this post describing the movie's retraction from B status, but for as bad as some of the selections of The Killer B's have been so far, I'd say it's a far better start than most.
Admired both as a great cinematic achievement and a terrific midnight fright, George A Romero's Dawn of the Dead received almost a universal appeal on its release backed by both critics and horror junkies alike. Even to this day some 30 years later, the movie still has a marvelous showing, despite the many remakes it has produced and itself being a sequel. Romero's classic zombie piece consistently remains towards the top of many lists concerning the greatest horror movies of all time.
Our fascination with the living dead is nothing new, even at this movie's release. Dawn of the Dead is in fact a sequel to Romero's Night of the Living Dead released ten years prior to this one and still we can dig deeper. White Zombie, considered the first true zombie picture ever made, came out in 1932. But even before this so-called invention of the cinematic zombie there were precursors of the zombie craze, most notably the stiff, muted somnambulist of The Cabinet of Dr.Caligari (1921). Dawn of the Dead provided nothing particularly revolutionary or innovative in its story or zombie depiction compared to previous movies of its kind. There's not much you can do actually. When zombies enter, it always becomes a struggle for survival. And other than Danny Boyle giving zombies the ability to run in 28 Days Later, the creativity of one such creature is limited. Despite the rather atypical and unoriginal formula left for these movies, Romero's second installment of the zombie trilogy was a huge success. Many consider Dawn of the Dead to be the best zombie movie ever made and I would certainly agree. So to circle back to the initial question posed, what makes Dawn of the Dead such a spectacular movie?
Our movie concerns itself with a small group of individuals desperate for survival in a decrepit apocalyptic world where the dead now walk. And once again unlike most movies of this kind, Dawn of the Dead is not just 90 minutes of mindless hysteria with people trying to flee for safety and killing herds of zombies in the mean time. In fact the majority of the movie finds this group holed up in a shopping mall with little more than one large pane of glass separating them from the living dead. In this context, the struggle for survival is more of a battle than a race.
These laughable scenes come with delight, giving the audience a break from what we and the characters both dread. Given such high praise for his meticulous character study, Romero knew above all what his audience really wanted. Dawn of the Dead is far bloodier, more violent and more disgusting than its predecessor. Now in color might I add. The first ten minutes, the most gruesome part of the movie, is almost an exploitation of itself before we settle down with the four survivors that make our movie.
With such high praise given on its release, Dawn of the Dead to this day is one of the finest films ever made for this holiday season. Its age may show at times, especially with the white make up of the zombies, giving it more of a B-movie feel and classification. Whatever, then I will say this: Dawn of the Dead is the gold standard of B-movies, from which every zombie movie hereafter will try and out do with no avail.

"The good die early, the bad die late," wrote poet Daniel Defoe in 1696. Nearly 300 years later, Billy Joel howled the same thing in his song "Only the Good Die Young."
But a groundbreaking longevity study, spanning 70 years, debunks that cherished adage. Instead, it found that nice, conscientious people tend to live longer than the insolent and brutish.
"Common wisdom says that a selfish, self-indulgent boor prospers by stepping on others," says Howard Friedman of UC Riverside, one of seven researchers conducting the study. "In the rush toward death, the encouraging news may be that good guys finish last."
Friedman used a study that began in 1921 to track 1,528 children--mostly white, all well-educated and of varied socioeconomic backgrounds. They were interviewed every five to 10 years by Stanford University psychologist Lewis Terman, who was investigating genetic theories of intelligence. Terman died in 1956, but others continued to collect data.

A few days now and it will be Father's Day! This year, I will be making a very unique gift bag for my special dad! I made a video tutorial to show people how I made this gorgeous gift bag out of wrapping paper. You can do it too. I chose a funky design as you can see in the above picture. The gift bag is supposed to look like a T-Shirt, which I think suits the Father's Day theme. You can choose your dad's favorite colour, and make a gift bag with that colour!
The gift tag that comes along with it also looks like a T-shirt too. You can make all kinds of things using paper. The good thing about making your own gift bag and tags is that you can customise it with whatever colours, shape, and size you want. I am sure your dad will appreciate a home-made gift bag just for him. All that effort put into it!
Below are the video tutorials of this little Father's Day project. In the gift bag making tutorial, I also placed the miessence vitality pack gift inside the bag. If you are interested in finding out more about these awesome superfoods, I recommend you jump on my website here and check it out! Click Here.

The Potential Regulation of L1 Mobility by RNA Interference
1Department of Pathology and Laboratory Medicine, School of Medicine, University of Pennsylvania, Philadelphia, PA 19104-6055, USA
2Friedrich Miescher Institute for Biomedical Research, Maulbeerstrasse 66, Basel 4058, Switzerland
Received 6 August 2005; Revised 12 December 2005; Accepted 20 December 2005
Copyright © 2006 Shane R. Horman et al. This is an open access article distributed under the Creative Commons Attribution License, which permits unrestricted use, distribution, and reproduction in any medium, provided the original work is properly cited.
The hypothesis that RNA interference constrains L1 mobility seems inherently reasonable: L1 mobility can be dangerous and L1 RNA, the presumed target of RNAi, serves as a critical retrotransposition intermediate. Despite its plausibility, proof for this hypothesis has been difficult to obtain. Studies attempting to link the L1 retrotransposition frequency to alterations in RNAi activity have been hampered by the long times required to measure retrotransposition frequency, the pleiotropic and toxic effects of altering RNAi over similar time periods, and the possibility that other cellular machinery may contribute to the regulation of L1s. Another problem is that the commonly used L1 reporter cassette may serve as a substrate for RNAi. Here we review the L1-RNAi hypothesis and describe a genetic assay with a modified reporter cassette that detects approximately 4 times more L1 insertions than the conventional retrotransposition assay.

This METRO Accelerator is a three-month, 90-day program in Berlin, Germany, and to understand how it works for start-ups we can can break the acceleration process into a few different phases.
Phase 1 - Mentorship
We've built companies from scratch, and so we've seen first-hand how well baptism by fire can work. Start-ups in the program spend their first two weeks in what we call 'Mentor Madness'. In this phase, you'll meet up to 10 mentors each day and get feedback from leaders in the field. It's important to remember that you're not pitching here, you're actually soliciting feedback. We'll teach you how to do this within the first week of the program. It is very important for entrepreneurs to be challenged on their assumptions, and so with more than 100 mentors within the safe confines of the program, your startups will find knowledge, inspiration, insights and support from these mentors. You will eventually be matched with 5-10 long-term lead mentors, who will be drawn from our wider pool of experts.
Phase 2 - Concept Testing
Concept testing is one of the most crucial steps in order to identify the perceptions, wants and needs associated with a product or service. Most of the startups that have found success first began by identifying a specific problem, and then moving on to find a way to develop a set of solutions, and then finally testing those solutions with a business model and building a company around it. You'll also hear from start-ups from previous cohorts, and the METRO Accelerator team we'll help equip you with the tools and knowledge you'll need to navigate through this process.
Phase 3 - Sales Training
We're unique for many reasons. One of the ways we deliver outstanding value to startups in our program is by engaging in a partnership with the Maschmayer group, who are the best sales trainers in Germany. During this phase, you will learn about the different sales techniques and processes, with individualized training sessions catering to your companies needs. You'll learn about ways to deploy the best battle-tested sales strategies, that work for your business model.
Phase 4 - Investment Preparation
The Investment preparation phase is another crucial part of the program. We'll coach and train our teams for all that is to come after Demo Day. We dedicate a significant amount of time and resources to prepare startups for investment talks and negotiations in their next phase. We'll bring in the experts from some of the most renowned angel investors and VCs, leveraging the expertise of your Techstars MD. We'll also host a special workshop with David Cohen, the founder and co-CEO at Techstars, in addition to exposing you to ideas and knowledge from companies that have previously been through the process.
Phase 5 - Pitch Practice
The final leg of the program is Pitch Practice. Prior to Demo Day, the startups work on their storylines, pitch decks, and presentation skills with professional partners, in order to have the perfect pitch on this very important day that marks the end of the program. You'll be working with specialist presentation coaches, and you'll also be able to draw on the experience of your Techstars MD. Jag spent over a decade working in politics, where he often helped coach world leaders and politicians for debates and media performances.
We keep the program structure fluid, so as to ensure we're meeting all the needs of the startups in the accelerator.
We can also think about breaking the accelerator program into three months.
Month One: Grow your network
Meet tons of mentors from the Techstars & METRO networks, and find the 10 who will be your lead mentors throughout the program. Some of these mentors may even choose to work with you for years to come.
These mentors help with product development, market-fit, and provide valuable introductions to help grow your company fast.
You'll get as much feedback as possible from mentors, investors, and prospective customers
Month Two: Execute
Go deeper with your lead mentors, work with your MD (Jag Singh), gain traction and hit your milestones -- whether that's a prototype, building out the next phase of your product, first customer, etc.
Time to step on the gas! Now that you have a ton of feedback and a support team, execute!
Month three: Strategy & Demo Day
Figure out your fundraising strategy, and prepare your investor collateral
Learn how to communicate your vision to customers, investors and future team members.
Refine a great pitch, leverage demo day to kickstart your fundraising or close a key customer/partner.

Hi guys, I know this will be a really silly Q but I just cannot understand it.
For any of you that know some economics, I understand that PED using calculus = dQ/dP x P/Q
Q = 60 - 3P and so am I right in thinking that the derivative of Q (dQ) is equal to -3?
We are asked to find the PED when price (P) is equal to 15 so am I also write in thinking that the derivative of P (dP) is 0? According to the constant rule, the derivative of any constant is always 0.
Therefore, surely dQ/dP is the same as -3/0? and I know you cannot divide by 0?
the is really bugging me and I know I'm probably making a very silly mistake but I hope someone can help me out.
Also the book I'm using says that dQ/dP is -3 which is confusing because does that mean they're are just disregarding the fact that the derivative of 15 = 0?
Many thanks,

By Athambile Masola
While watching Gillian Schutte's documentary "It's my hair…I bought it" Part One, I decided that the hair debate needs to come to an end. It's banal and redundant. Talking about black women's hair needs to stop being a question of national importance. Our hair is not all of who we are. Why have I never seen a documentary about white women and their hair? Because it's not important and white women are not placed in a situation where they are disembodied and their hair becomes a symbol of who they are as individuals.
In Schutte's documentary she uses a women's conversation and a diary entry by Khanyi Magubane. A group of black women are just having a picnic and seem to be talking about their hair in someone's garden on a lazy Sunday afternoon. There's also the disturbing presence of a white women (at least she appears white in the video, she could be black for all I know) who is silent throughout the documentary, but she nods and smiles as though she were part of the conversation. She has a glorious mass of hair upon her head but she doesn't comment about her existential crises when it comes to her hair. This scene sets up the documentary as an opportunity where black sisters are educating people of other races about the strange, ungovernable and inscrutable ways of our hair.
What was also worrying about Schutte's documentary is that black women participate in this discourse of hair politics. This is equally problematic. I realise I may not know the full context of the documentary and whose idea it was to create it, but there's something disturbing about listening to black women who choose natural hair (or relaxed hair without the weave) take the moral high ground and judge women who buy weaves and straighten their hair. The conversation is also about the experience women have in the work place where they are expected to dress a particular way. One of the women in the documentary comments about why people do not choose to wear their traditional clothes in corporate environments. This is an issue about institutional culture and conforming to the norm rather than challenging it through diversity. This conversation can be held without reducing the issue to hair.
The hair debate is also held amongst black women who have embraced their "natural hair" and comment on "those women" who wear weaves and haven't seen the light. This sets up a division amongst black women where there is a sense of judgement amongst ourselves about who has their black cards and who doesn't. Those who wear their hair natural are seen as more authentic yet those who buy their hair are seen as sell-outs who are unhappy, insecure and reaching for the illusive "Western" mould for beauty. Is this really fair? None of the women in the video have a weave (perhaps we'll see that happen in Part 2 of the series). Why reduce a black woman's sense of self to her appearance and even worse, to something as banal as hair?
My disdain towards the hair issue was heightened when I read an article by Melissa Harris-Perry, "My daughter, myself". This is a reflection about Melissa's relationship with her 11 year daughter Parker. The main aim of the article seems to be Melissa's way of sussing out her daughter's angst about what it means to be young in America. When she asks her daughter about what she likes about herself, amongst other answers Parker responds by saying "I love that I can wear [my hair] natural or in extensions or pressed. I have really great hair." It takes an 11 year to put the pieces together. This is the crux of the hair debate: black women have great hair! This obviously smacks of "I'm black and I'm proud" discourse, but children often have a better sense of what is important when it comes to the simplest things, even hair.
I could have a different hairstyle for each season, just like any woman who can afford to change her hair colour at the salon. Making hair a political issue reduces black women to an exhibition as though being a black woman with or without hair makes one a problem in society. "Well no wonder she's so poor, she spends all her money on her hair!…Well no wonder she can't find a man, she looks like a man, she has no hair!" These are the value judgements made about black women when we reduce them to their hairstyle. The hair issue speaks to the obsession there is about women's bodies and how we should look in order to be seen as acceptable.
My hair is not a symbol of anything, it's just hair and right now I'm too lazy to attend to it so it looks like a bad example of dreadlocks. I cut my hair at least once a year because I don't think I have the temperament for hair salons (the fumes make me dizzy) nor do I have the money nor time to get someone to do my hair. Even when "soul sisters" have dreadlocks, many still opt for salons to style their hair periodically and this can cost up to R300 per appointment, which is equivalent to braids and perhaps the cheapest weave on the market. The point is, it's just hair and it's fun experimenting with it until we have someone telling us what we should and shouldn't do to our hair. Even when it's my own mother who believes, ubuhle bentombi zinwele zakhe.

Last Saturday I performed at the Bridgeport Brewery in NW for a Portland Bagpipe Wedding. What a splendid evening it was. I opened the set with a set of 6/8 marches while the Bridesmaid and Groomsmen shuffled in. I quickly cut my bagpipes and got into position. When the glowing bride and euphoric father gave me the nod, I struck up my pipes and played "Duncan McGillvary", a classic 6/8 march. Because the room was rather small, I found myself at the arbor before I was through the second part. Normally, I complete the tune but I forced myself to cut my pipes early. I didn't want to make everyone wait for me. The spotlight was on the bride and groom.
After the short ceremony, I led them out with a rousing "John Barclay", a beautiful and light 6/8 march. Again, I found myself only completing half the tune because of the distance.
For the toast, I played the traditional "Scotland the Brave", in which everyone clinked their glasses and gave a salute to a long and promising marriage. The champagne was a flowing.
To conclude the evening, I played what pipers like to call the Medley, which is a series of Hornpipes, Jigs, Slow Airs, Strathspeys and Reels. After a full stomach of steak and wine, my body was reeling and ready to play.
The evening was light and young. The wedded couple sure picked an excellent place to throw a wedding. Complete with a rustic look, a lavish bar, abstract art and amazing acoustics, it was a bagpipers paradise (well, my paradise at least). I handed my card to the party coordinator. Hopefully, I will back.
Thanks to Bob and Jessica. I wish you two the best.

Economic Evaluation of Replacement Turbine Runner Bidsby H. Morgan Goranflo, Jr., TVA Engineering Lab, Norris, TN, USA,
J. Stephens Adams, TVA Engineering Lab, Norris, TN, USA,
Document Type: Proceeding Paper
Part of: Water Power '87
Many owners of hydro facilities are investigating increasing plant capacity and output by upgrading existing hydraulic turbines. Typically, the owner will conduct a detailed feasibility study, soliciting information from turbine vendors regarding cost and performance of new turbine components, usually including, but not limited to, new runners. Vendors must estimate, based on analysis and experience, the increases in performance that could be achieved by installing new components into existing settings. After economic analysis by the owner, a decision is reached whether or not to proceed with implementation. This paper describes the development of bid evaluation factors for three projects owned by the Tennessee Valley Authority. Potential problems and pitfalls with the application of these factors are also discussed.

Reflection on Entrepreneurship. Ideas to Reality. The Critical Story Behind Creating Self-Watering Seed-Starters
June 25, 2013 at 3:45 pm Leave a comment
Pic: Anne Fletcher's Self-Watering Seed-Starter (Orta)
Studying in the States, I've been exposed extensively to entrepreneurship. Most of my good friends with good ideas make them work and turn them into reality. The entrepreneur spirit is in all of those who work hard, and believe that they have something to improve others daily living. This is what happened with my friend Anne Fletcher, instructor at the D.School and consultant. After showing off her entrepreneur skills in Chile's surfing context, she came back to the States, and here, she is doing it once again. Meet her dream of helping others to keep seedlings alive. But is not that easy! There are pitfalls and a-ha moments! It is always good to hear a real story and reflection, overall from someone who is critical and has a vision behind it. Here is what she tells us about her quest:
-. I find hope in planting seeds .-
Terracotta self-watering seed-starters will keep your seedlings alive even if you ignore them a little! Before I started making terracotta seed-starters in my garage, I killed a lot of seedlings. In the delicate seedling phase, plants need gentle watering every single day, twice a day if it's hot outside. With long hours and work travel, sometimes it just wasn't possible for me to keep those baby plants alive. About a year ago I had an idea for a new way to solve this problem. I invented a terracotta self watering seed-starter with a reservoir for water, and porous walls that keeps seedlings happy for about a week between waterings. After debuting my invention last September, I started selling out all the production runs I could make in my garage. I found some local artisans here in California to help me meet the growing demand.
Now I'm working on a new, bigger model. The 12-pack allows you to grow bigger seedlings, and more of them. Big is great for the plants, but it's too much for me to handle in the garage. I'm doing a Kickstarter project to raise the funds to make the 12-pack a reality by paying for professional mold-making, and working with manufacturing partners in California. This project partly comes from a desire to keep my plants alive in a pretty package on the windowsill – there's no denying that. But there's another deeper reason.
As a designer, I struggle all the time with the visions of apocalyptic futures that experts say are coming if we don't change our consumption habits. When I ponder the designer's role in all this (as creator of objects people desire, and sometimes as creators of the desire itself), I feel a mental paralysis. It's extremely difficult to balance both being aware of what we humans are doing to ourselves, and yet stay positive enough to have the energy to make positive changes. In a world sharply divided between doom-and-gloom apocalysm and head-in-the-sand optimism, we designers need a new way forward. I can't ignore the reality of our current situation, yet I also can't create positive change from a place of fear and pessimism. -. I find hope in planting seeds .-
Pic: Anne Fletcher's Self-Watering Seed-Starter (Orta)
Nurturing new life is such a powerful positive connection to our relationship with (and responsibility towards) other living things. My mission with Orta and the seed-starters is to bring some of that feeling of connectedness and hope for new life to a broader audience. By building on some of our core design competencies, creating things that are "cute" and "convenient," I'm hoping to be a trojan horse of belief in positive change. Lofty, yes. Unrealistic, maybe. But it's what keeps me going. I'm going to be at the Dwell on Design show next weekend, and will be giving away a postcard that has a cheesy, but I think appropriate, quote: "To plant a garden is to believe in tomorrow" by Audrey Hepburn. You may have seen it before. I hadn't, and when I came across it a few weeks ago, I realized it was exactly the connection I'm trying to make: that a garden can be a bridge between doom-and-gloom reality and hope and positive change

Encore Farm is a tribute to fresh starts and new beginnings at any age.
After careers as a bread baker, legal advocate, day care mom, and construction carpenter, I launched a midlife "second act" as a farmer. Though I didn't grow up on a farm, don't own acreage, and never even thought of myself as a gardener, I nonetheless have always been drawn to a self-sufficient and handmade life. I specialize in heirloom varieties of edible dry beans, raised by hand using organic and sustainable practices.
Currently I live in St. Paul with my husband Jim, who helps me farm, and our border collie Eli who doesn't.

I discovered filmmaking soon after graduating from The Bauer College of Business at the University of Houston. The ability to tell stories through the lens of a camera soon became my passion. I approach each project with a unique perspective, and a singular interest in making the story come alive.
In addition to creating works for my clients, my photography has been featured in print by Houstonia Magazine, on the cover of the Houston Press Summer Guide 2017, and many other online platforms.
I was first assistant director for feature film "The Extrovert" in 2015, and I directed my own short film "The Gold Line." It was accepted into the Houston Film Commission's Texas Filmmaker's Showcase 2017, and film festivals around the country.
I have also been cast as a skateboarder in advertisements such as the Texas Tourism: Texas Cities – 2014 Commercial.

Things are starting to pick up at Walnut Creek. The fishing is great for Perch and the Walleye are starting to be picked up real good too.
Perch: are out in 53 ft of water. They seem to be out east of each creek. Emerald shiners are the preferred bait. Any kind of minnows will work though.
The coolers are coming in with limits in them. Lee Hanson and his friend got their limit along with just about everyone else who went out fishing for them.
George Smith fishing on the "Brandy Nicole" with two others came in with nine nice walleye.
This nice citation size fish was brought in by Dick Garrard.
This holiday weekend turned out pretty good weather wise. It was calling for 2-4 ft waves but with only one foot waves.
The parking lot is full and the boats are still coming in. This picture was taken at 8:30 in the morning. The trailers are parking on the grass and anywhere they can find to park. From the radio conversations they are catching a lot of fish too.
It is supposed to be 1-3 ft waves up until Monday.
Happy fishing and Happy Fourth of July.

text: I need to hatch quite a few replacement pullets this spring and am thinking of getting a second incubator to use as a hatcher. My question is how frequently should I set eggs in the incubator so that I will get a chance to clean out the hatcher between batches. 7 days seems longer than I need. The laying flock includes 12 hens who lay about 9 eggs each day so I have more that enough eggs to move them through as fast as wisely possible. I know that continually filling every empty space in the incubator would maximize the number, but I think I want to clean the hatcher between hatches. What system do you folks use?

Are you feeling sorry for it yet? Well, giving my poor, beat-up kitchen the much needed face-lift is gonna take some time for sure, but this weekend, I made a step in the right direction: I ordered the countertops (or, at least... most of them).
What we need to get the kitchen new counters: a 5x3 ft, 9 ft, 4 ft, and 18in pieces of butcher block, our countertop of choice.
What I wanted to order: 2 8ft pieces of Ikea's Lagan countertop (in Beech) and a 4x6 piece of Numerar, also in Beech.
What I actually ordered: 2 8 ft pieces of lagan in Beech. The island piece will have to wait until it's in stock. The good news is it's really only the outer "L" that absolutely needed done immediately.
The difference between Lagan and Numerar countertops is thickness and price, but we felt that the lagan counters were plenty sturdy still. Unfortunately, the wider island piece is only available in the Numerar, so it'll be a bit of a splurge... when it's finally in stock.
The girl at Ikea (who happens to belong to the church I grew up in) kept trying to sell us on the Oak, as opposed to Beech or birch (which we never really considered). I will agree with her that the oak probably has a bit more character than the beech, but the wood didn't match with the color I chose as well, if you ask me. So beech it was.
Delivery estimate on our new counters is Dec. 7. I'm not sure if we'll actually work on them until after Christmas though.
|Beech counters, white cabinets and a paint chip representative of (but not identical to) our kitchen color of choice.
Remember this bad boy? Not too much has changed, either.

Wow things have been crazy lately. My surgeries didn't happen. But looking into some specialists that will actually try to help me. I have some pictures to upload from my tattooing. Gonna try getting back into the everyday blog thing. It was good for me and I am disappointed in myself for not keeping up with it. So hoping to start again soon.
The whole point of me doing the sketch blog was to help me get used to drawing everyday for when I become a tattoo artist and or work full time as a mangaka. Anyways lets get to the good stuff then shall we!
Ok so the first is to prove that its straight and the second is to show whats actually written: 'I am the Emperors dog at Kew, pray tell me sir, whose dog are you?' The writing is fairly small and I had a good time doing it! Curtis sat well for it.
I have several more tattoos lined up to be done when I finish my work at the county by then I am hoping to start saving for a really nice machine or some more colors of ink or maybe a thermal machine to save me some time with the stencils lol.
Alot has happened recently in my life. Things weren't working out with Richard and I so we are now just best friends. Reminds me of the Wonder Girls song~ Although I do have my visa to move to England I plan on using the money I had saved to further my tattooing career, emergency funding for my new car named Sousuke and most likely move into my own place (with some roomates to help with rent) in Leduc or Edmonton. Its amazing the amount of self confidence I am felling now. Doing things for myself and working hard for no one but me. Such an amazing feeling. Just wished I could have had that operation so I could go back to the gym and make myself feel good on the outside as well. Although the lower stress amount has made me lose some weight I still dont feel comfortable in my own skin. I know I will never be a thin model but I don't want to be. I know I would be happiest as a toned curvy girl so thats my aim. Looking at a size 10-12 ... im a 15-16 atm so Im getting there!
Anyways got some more stuff to get done tonight so goodnight world! Love ya!

A few photos from the weekends volleyball matches posted on FLICKR
Wolf leads Mariners past Avalanche
by Josh Aldrich, Nanaimo Daily News
Alyssa Wolf showed why she is one the biggest weapons in Pacific Western Athletic Associations women's volleyball on the weekend.
The Vancouver Island University Mariners junior power tied a program record for aces in a single match in their 3-0 (25-12, 25-17, 25-11) win over the College of the Rockies on Saturday, and then came within one ace of repeating the feat in their 3-0 (25-15, 25-21, 25-20) win on Sunday morning.
"It might have just been home gym and being comfortable where I am," said Wolf. "I'm here (practicing) Monday through Friday, so it's just comfortable." Her 10 aces on Saturday, tied the mark originally set by former Mariners star Danielle Gaudet in 1999, and a record she tied last year in Cranbrook against COTR. She was just as deadly on Sunday, getting nine serves to fall in. She also added five digs and five kills in the second match.
She was the brightest spot for the Mariners over the weekend.
All-Canadian power Leanna Gildersleeve had a big game on Sunday, finishing with 10 kills, two digs and five aces of her own, and on Mychaela Roelants had three digs and four aces.
Despite not dropping a set to the Avalanche, head coach Shane Hyde was not happy with their performance, particularly on Sunday.
"We didn't play well, it was a sub-par performance," said Hyde. "College of the Rockies is a team in the bottom of our conference and the girls played to their level. We're pretty disappointed about it."
Still, there are worse positions to be in. The Mariners have dropped just one set in four matches in the first two weeks of the PacWest season.
They are once again loaded for another run at a provincial championship and a berth in the Canadian Colleges Athletic Association. It's just a matter of getting all of the pieces working together at the same time.
"I like the new energy that's on the team," said Wolf. "We've got some young rookies and a transfer and they have real good attitudes. It's refreshing. I think with the vets, they want to redeem themselves for not making nationals last year."
Up next for VIU is a trip to Capilano University on Friday and Saturday for two matches with the Blues.
The VIU Mariners men's volleyball team has gone to five sets three times in their first four matches and have only won one of them.
This weekend, it they lost both of their five-set matches to COTR at VIU.
The Avalanche won 3-2 (25-12, 25-22, 19-25, 23-25, 19-17) on Saturday and then 3-2 (25-23, 21-25, 10-25, 25-20, 15-13) on Sunday.
Sunday's was particularly frustrating. They were in control, up 2-1 after three sets, and let the Avs back in, dropping a poorly played fourth set. In the fifth, they found themselves down 8-3, but battled back to tie the set at 13-13, but could not close the deal. The loss was compounded by the five-set defeat the night before.
"Two nights in a row, five setters, they always break your heart," said Mariners head coach Abe Avender. "You'd like to win one, especially at home."
The Mariners went from looking like world-beaters in one set to looking completely out of synch in the next set.
Avender says is a product of having such a young lineup, but it is a problem they are going to have to rectify and soon.
"I don't know what it is," he said. "It's a timing thing, it's a mentality thing. When we're up, everyone can hit better than anyone in the country, but when we're down, we're scared, we're tipping and we're off-speeding shots; that's not how these guys play. The battles that we have in practice, we would have done great this weekend, but it's disappointing in a match that you've trained for all week, you don't bring out your best."
Sophomore middle Zach Grigg was the best Mariner on the floor on Sunday.
"He's great back there with that serve," said Avender. "He's a gamer, he's one of the ones who will step up and want the ball in crunch time."
The men are also at Capilano University next weekend.

Blog Tour: Solitude by Cat Mason
Publication Date: November 9, 2015
Amazon Goodreads
"The most powerful spark is the one that can reignite the fire that has long gone out."
After losing his fiancé, Mitchell Taylor abandoned everything that reminded him of her and retreated home to Las Vegas, Nevada. Now his life consists of three things: drowning his pain in the bottom of a vodka bottle, tattooing bodies in the shop he co-owns with his best friend and pissing off their office manager, Shelby. Not only does she infuriate him by challenging everything he does, but fighting with her pushes back the ghosts that haunt him.
Taking control of her future at a young age, Shelby Winston never let anyone or anything get to her. Until now. Mitch is unpredictable. One minute he is drunk and making her want to pull her hair out, the next he is doing something crazy like saving her life.
While every argument between the two has everyone around them waiting for bloodshed, something else is bubbling beneath the surface. There's no going back once you cross that line, and once the tension erupts into something else, it could change everything forever.
I received this book for free from Authors in exchange for an honest review. This does not affect my opinion of the book or the content of my review.
Guest Review by Tammy Cole
I was really anxious to read Mitch's story. The love he shared with Becky was so beautiful and honest that losing her the way he did was just heartbreaking. So going into this book I knew I would be on a ride of emotions.
Mitch is a sad and depressed man who is just trying to survive in the world without the love of his life. Shelby is a woman we all could admire as she knows who she is and what she wants out of life. I felt so many different emotions for these two characters and I was glued to my kindle to see if the two of them would ever turn to each other. Cat did such a good job with Mitch that you can't help but feel for this man. I really enjoy her writing style and would recommend this book and this series. I can't wait to read more from her.

Alexandre Martucci (left) and Aurélien Boudier (right) are co-founders of Crazy-Voyages, France's leading organiser of bachelor parties.
BACKGROUNDCrazy-Voyages is an online travel agency specialised in organising short and festive trips including bachelor parties, weekends with friends, business seminars and more. With an offering of 70 destinations across Europe and more than 5,000 proposed activities, Crazy-Voyages offers a fully-customisable, carefree adventure. Already a leader in France, its founders hope to transform the company into a European reference. In 2016, Crazy-Voyages experienced a 20% increase in customers and a turnover of 6 million euros. In July 2017, the company aquired a British competitor to further expand to the UK market and reach sales of 10 million.
What led you to become an entrepreneur?Alexandre Martucci: It all started rather organically in 2007, when I was asked to organise a bachelor party for one of my good friends. I hosted the party abroad, convinced that it would be more fun than staying in Paris. The planning was quite a challenge but the party turned out to be a huge success. Soon, other friends began asking me to organise their bachelor parties too! After my third party, held in Budapest in 2009, one of my friends asked me to consider offering the service as a proper business. I hadn't thought of it before but it made sense! That very day I met up with my friend Aurélien Boudier, and together we started to conceive a business plan and website. After some quick research, we realised that with 250,000 French people getting married each year, there was quite a market out there. We also realised there were not yet any online offers for international bachelor party trips, so we immediately developed the Crazy-Voyages website. As they say, the rest is history.
How has HEC contributed to your success?AM: In addition to my 2005 HEC Masters in Marketing, the 2010 HEC incubator program was a tremendous boost to the business. I applied to the program in February 2010, and met the admissions panel in March 2010. At first the jury did not seem impressed with the idea, but once they heard that after only two weeks of operations we already had a turnover of 20,000 euros, they changed their mind. Unlike other applicants, it was clear our idea had a market. Thanks to my marketing background, I already had a fairly strong idea of how to manage my brand. But the HEC incubator program provided me with lots of legal and financial advice, as well as tangible business benefits. For example, after just one three-hour lesson in Google AdWords, we saved 70% in our advertsing budget!
What is one key lesson you learned during the HEC Incubator?AM: I remember one brilliant course in sales. And unlike the related subjects of marketing, accounting and finance, sales is absolutely crucial to actually bring in revenue! The skill is especially important for entrepreneurs because in the early stages of your business you are often the only salesperson! I discovered that it is not enough to simply found a great company, but that you also need to interact well with your customers. Concretely I learned that for each sales pitch, you should first make your customer dream, then demonstrate your expertise, and finally provide a clear and concrete call-to-action. I still train all my sales staff on the lessons I learned that day!
What is your contact with HEC alumni today?AM: The HEC alumni is a fantastic network. For example, we were able to secure 600,000 euros in financing through an investment fund created by two HEC alums. I am also still in contact with the HEC Incubator program: twice a year, I visit the classes to share my entrepreneurial experience with students.
"I would encourage all entrepreneurs to quickly test your idea out in the real world."
What advice would you give to new entrepreneurs?AM: I've seen way too many people spend way too much time on their business plan—sometimes as long as one year—without first trying to implement the idea! I would encourage all entrepreneurs to quickly test your idea out in the real world, so that it can begin to naturally evolve with market realities. In some ways, we were lucky to not have much upfront investment as it forced us to go straight to the market. We knew we only had 1,000 euros each month for four months, so we bought digital ads and gave it a go. After a turnover of 150,000 euros in our first year, we knew we were on to something. In the second year, after fine-tuning our business model, we then saw a turnover of 900,000 euros. We don't regret jumping in early!
Key facts
- 250,000 French people get married each year
- 6 million euros turnover in 2017
- 20% increase in customers over 2016

Luella is a an fashion and eyewear designer that has taken the concept of eyewear to another level. Indeed you wear an accessory around your eyes, but it is more the message of wearing this mask at night than needing protection against the sun. Maybe more protection against reality, the reality that disappears as soon as these glasses goes on, combined with a serious dress, catsuit, perfectly fitted mens suit or just nothing at all.
Mary Ping continues the Bond vibe--making M delighted--with glasses that fold and can be used not only to protect the eyes, but to hang on your collar, pocket, v-neck or side of your mouth.
Linda Farrow has created a pair of glasses that both can protect a burnt nose in the slopes, a just operated slope nose and Michael's nose. A good pair of glasses can soon become a part of you, so choose accordingly.

Niels Hav / On his blindness
Niels Hav
Is it cheaper now, I wonder,
to write in ink, since Borges dictated
his labyrinthine tales in Buenos Aires?
The Homer of the Argentine considered words to be
symbols we share with others. "I believe abstract
aesthetics to be a vain illusion," he wrote
in one of his prefaces, where he delighted in renouncing
originality. Almost without affectation. Only after going
blind did he make eye-contact with John Milton
in his Paradise Lost.
Love makes blind. But it took forty years!
Forty years of preliminary studies, imitation and outbursts
of rage when the dreamtiger escaped. Now and then he'd
consult oculists, each time a disappointment. He studied
Joyce, who must have loved Nora, though he never went
completely blind. Only when Alonso Quixano lost his
mind and called himself Don Quixote did he leave his
father's library; and not until forty years after finding
love in Geneva did Borges go blind –
as blind as Beethoven was deaf!
He worked in the dark and polished his sentences
in memory until they sparkled from sheer metaphysics.
"If one is a poet, one is always a poet, and all the time
assailed by poetry." Borges absorbed nourishment
from his misfortune and replaced the visible world
with sagas and Old English verse, thereby transforming
blindness into a gift: Only now did he come eye-level
with Homer, and only now was he able to see deep
into the dark, wide world and into the dizzying
moment that is eternity.

I met Niels Hav at the launch of The Literary Review's recent issue on new Danish literature. Niels has already appeared in English, with two volumes out in Canada, translated by P. K. Brask and Patrick Friesen. We got together on this and a couple of others, now submitted to some Canadian journals. Hopefully, they'll be out soon.

High-Speed Digital Wireless Service in Polk County, Florida "Strong As An Oak"
TAMPA, FL — To provide the best wireless service for residents, businesses and visitors in "The City of Oaks," Verizon Wireless has expanded its digital network here by constructing a new advanced digital transmission site on Tee Avenue Road, just east of U.S. Highway 17 in Bartow.
The new site processes both voice calls and wireless data traffic especially for the area county office buildings and residences, as well as for vehicles traveling along U.S. Highway 17, U.S. Highway 98, and Highway 60 and represents the company's continuing investment and growth in Florida. Verizon Wireless has spent more than $300 million in the state during the past 18 months alone to further expand and enhance its all-digital network.
This aggressive network investment now totaling more than $1 billion in Florida and in excess of $30 billion nationally during the past six years ensures that Verizon Wireless will continue to stay ahead of growing demand for wireless voice and data services like Picture Messaging and Internet access throughout the state. Additionally, these improvements fortify the Verizon Wireless network to ensure operations during circumstances such as the hurricane seasons of 2004 and 2005.
The Verizon Wireless network in Florida withstood the impact of eight hurricanes in 2004 and 2005 while other communication networks were often adversely affected. In Florida, more than 80 percent of all Verizon Wireless sites have their own back-up generator in addition to battery power to keep the network running even when the power supply is interrupted.
"This new site in Bartow can help improve public safety in many emergency situations," said Mike Lanman, Florida region president for Verizon Wireless. "But every day it also allows us to meet the growing needs of consumers here calling family and friends, sending Picture Messages, checking emails and so much more."
About Verizon Wireless Verizon Wireless owns and operates the nation's most reliable wireless network, serving 53 million voice and data customers. Headquartered in Basking Ridge, NJ, Verizon Wireless is a joint venture of Verizon Communications (NYSE:VZ) and Vodafone (NYSE and LSE: VOD).
