The Multi-Faceted World of Today's Creative
This past week on The Creative's Cauldron, in our latest episode, Holly and I explored how today's independent creative is a "renaissance person", in terms of being active in different spheres of creativity. I relate to that dynamic myself in the areas of writing, filmmaking, music, martial arts, and broadcasting. I've found that engaging in multiple areas of creative activity, I bring myself lots of experiences and new perspectives that expand my horizons in each of the various spheres. My adventures in filmmaking, training in martial arts, exploring music, and broadcasting both in radio and visually have helped me grow further as a writer, for example. Every sphere of activity involves different experiences, disciplines, interactions, and so much more, which all lend to growing the pool of ideas, knowledge, and references that I draw from when engaging in a writing project. This results in more realism, better-developed characters, and many other things that help me develop my writing further. The different spheres also serve to inspire, in their own way. They involve different kinds of goals and milestones, the development of different skill sets, and each of these paths brings different kinds of inspiration. This is not a small area of contribution, as it is incredibly difficult to pursue the independent creative road and inspiration can make all the difference in the world when enduring some of the tougher stretches of the indie road. The multiple spheres of activity also introduce me to new audiences, who in turn discover the other things that I do. Reading audiences become aware of my independent film work, fans of independent film become aware of my novels, and all kinds of other examples of cross-pollination derive from my activity in several areas. It really is a good thing that today's climate for independent creatives fosters an openness to being active in different kinds of artistic expressions and pursuits. It has both practical and creative benefits, and I also think it helps contribute to attaining a more well-rounded approach to living life.

text: Sunderlan - Sunderland manager Gus Poyet appeared to have criticised the club's transfer policy on Thursday when asked if he was going to strengthen his struggling squad in the January transfer window."I want more quality. Do I think I'll get it? I don't know," Poyet, whose side face Newcastle United in a Tyne-Wear derby on Sunday, told reporters."You know what is missing. It is clear what we need to do. That is down to recruitment."So, if you ever get the chance to speak to anyone on the recruitment side and ask them about it, you are lucky. If you don't, don't ask me."Sunderland are without a win in six games and are 15th in the Premier League, two points above the relegation zone.In those games, five of which ended in draws, Sunderland have managed only three goals and increasing his side's firepower will be an obvious priority for the Uruguayan.However, he said suggested he would have little to do with bringing in new faces after Christmas."I am a head coach," Poyet said."I am not going to be a head coach when it suits and a manager when it doesn't."That side is down to recruitment."Sunderland's main striker Steven Fletcher has managed only four goals this season while Connor Wickham has netted two and US striker Jozy Altidore is yet to score.

Hackers have compromised the once anonymous Tor network
The Tor anonymous encryption service offers internet users a way to surf the web with anonymity and prides itself on the level of security it offers. Well it looks as though the network was compromised earlier this year along with some user data, according to a recent Tor developer blog post. It also said that those who used Tor between early February and July 4th of this year "should assume" they have been in some way affected by the attack.

There is a whole range of sorting techniques, of varying levels of efficiency and sophistication. This section introduces a small selection of the sorts available.
For convenience it is assumed that arrays of integers are to be sorted, but the techniques can be equally well used with arrays of other types, including arrays of structures.
The sorts here sort into ascending order, but sorting can also be performed into descending order by changing the way items are tested – the principles remain the same.

Old library books are the best for collaging, I am now 'demolishing' an Antarctica themed one. We all know the story of Scott's disastrous expedition to the South Pole. I used a picture of him and his team on the South Pole, it's kind of heart breaking.Middle inchie on the lower row is Scott.
"Had we lived I should have had a tale to tell of the hardihood, endurance and courage of my companions which would have stirred the heart of every Englishman. These rough notes and our dead bodies must tell the tale...We shall stick it out to the end, but we are getting weaker of course and the end cannot be far. It seems a pity, but I do not think I can write more. For God's sake, look after our people."

Writing correctly in English is important to me as a new blogger, because English is not my first language. For those of you who do not know, I am from Bulgaria and my native language is Bulgarian. I am really trying my best to write grammatically correct when it comes to my blog posts, so it will not be frustrating for my readers, but I use words incorrectly and make grammar mistakes sometimes just as many other English speakers. This is why I wanted to give StyleWriter 4 a try and see if it will help me become a better writer.
What is StyleWriter? StyleWriter is the World's Largest Style and Usage checker — is a powerful manuscript editor that plugs directly into all versions of Microsoft Word. StyleWriter searches for thousands of writing faults, including complex words, jargon and abstract words, wordy phrases, hidden verbs, passive verbs, clichés and long sentences. It then pops up advice showing you how to edit each sentence. Using StyleWriter typically cuts 25 percent of the words from the document and removes the stale writing habits so common in organizational writing. It's just like having a professional editor sit down next to you and highlight all of your writing problems in your document.
How does StyleWriter work? StyleWriter is an add-on writing aid to Microsoft Word to help you edit everything you write into a model of clear English. StyleWriter checks your document against a 200,000 graded wordlist and a 50,000-word and phrase style and usage checker!
Downloading, installing and activating StyleWriter 4 is fast and easy.
I usually copy the text I want to edit and paste it into StyleWriter. The software instantly analyzes the document and shows you where and how to edit. I like that StyleWriter advises how to cut long and wordy sentences into a clear and readable text that is easy to read and understand.
I think that StyleWriter would be helpful for bloggers, students, writers or just about anyone who writes and would like to improve their writing style and clarity. You can try the 14-day free StyleWriter trial here.
I received one or more of the products mentioned above for free using Tomoson.com. Regardless, I only recommend products or services I use personally and believe will be good for my readers.

External Speakers For Wall Mounted Tv - Did you just purchase a brand new flat-screen television? You're probably in significant need of a television wall mount when the answer is yes. You have several different choices of television wall mounts, and also this article will emphasize these different alternatives, hoping that it'll help you decide about what television wall mount is correct for you.
The sort of wall mount is the most basic, nevertheless, that really does not mean it is not the proper option for you. It can offer sturdiness as well as the security of knowing that your television wall mount isn't going to drop to the bottom. Should you have a little area where your television is positioned this is probably the best choice for you, perhaps not to mention the flat wall mount isn't as expensive as a number of the other wall mounts.
The second type of wall mount is the wall mount. This swiveling wall mount gives a bit mo-Re versatility in relation to the mount. It permits you to swivel your tele-vision right or left.
The third choice is the tilting wall mount. A wall mount is a fantastic alternative for a television that is located in a higher position on your own wall. In place of sitting uncomfortably like you are in the front-row of a movie-theater which can ruin your expertise. In the event that you've this wall mount all you have to do is tilt it down and you will easily be able to view your flat-screen tele-vision.


text: This sounds easy but it's not. There are so many distractions during meetings: your email is piling up, you are thinking about your part of the presentation, about what you have to deliver by the end of the day that is not getting done, the recent assignment you were given, etc. But you will get more out of every exchange and meeting if you don't worry about checking your phone, facebook, email, electronics in general and focus on the person talking. Really listen to what they are saying and what they are communicating by what they are not saying. If you are fully engaged in the conversation you will pick up the subtle nuances that others miss and then understand the different layers of what is being shared. More importantly you will really understand what your colleague is requesting, needing, teaching, so you can get more out of the exchange and be ready to respond thoughtfully and with insight.

Hello my Lovelies: Ereader Decisions
Some people may have checked out our bios and seen me up there, but this is my first post. I thought I'd open with a few thoughts about e-readers. Those who have read my bio know that I haven't yet purchased an e-reader and I'm a fairly new convert to the tribe of "zomg ebooks are cool." Which is pretty funny because I resisted them for so long.
Right now I'm still reading PDFs on my computer. I have bought from Ellora's Cave, as well as nonfiction ebooks from individuals all over the web. And I buy kindle books.
"Wait, you don't have an e-reader!"
Oh good. You were paying attention. I downloaded Kindle for PC which is free software that allows you to download and read Kindle books without actually owning a Kindle.
I've weighed the pros and cons of the many different e-readers currently available and I've made my decision. I'm getting a Kindle. One of the few real "cons" to a Kindle for me was the dedicated format and the fact that it doesn't support epub. But it DOES support PDF. And most places you can get ebooks besides OTHER dedicated stores like Sony and B&N for the Nook, sell a PDF version among their many versions available. (And Sony and B&N don't really hold much sway since their selections are much smaller than Amazon's selection.)
Even if "epub" becomes the "accepted format," whether Amazon adopts it or not, I expect that I'm going to want a new bright shiny e-reader in five years anyway. So I can reassess the situation at that time. For now, a Kindle meets all my needs perfectly and the cons I found to it were far outstripped by the pros. (Bigger selection at the dedicated store, fast wireless delivery, the design/ergonomics of it, etc.)
Additionally I can get books from Smashwords and get either the PDF version or the kindle .mobi version. And obviously I can shop the vast array of books available through the Kindle store. It's where most of the indie authors are. Lots of great prices for ebooks at Amazon. Needless to say, most of my ebook purchases will be indie authors. I'm just not paying the "going rate" for a trad pubbed ebook. I'm not threatened in any way by these goofy price wars. I've discovered there are plenty of talented indies to pick from.
The result is that I will increasingly add to my "favorite authors list" more and more indie authors, bypassing many trad published books altogether.
Another possible "con" of Kindle books is that unless the book is DRM-free, I may not be able to get it on my computer as a backup. AND Kindle can remove it at any time, technically. It doesn't seem to me that this is standard practice for them, but the implications of the possibility are almost Orwellian.
Nevertheless, I view ebooks a bit differently than many. I'm still in love with paper books, but I want to read more than I can afford to read and I'm not a big fan of the library due to lack of selection and waiting on interlibrary loan. To me, an ebook is an impulse purchase and a "one off." I'm reading it just the one time (like renting a movie, or eating a Big Mac), so I don't particularly care what Amazon does to it after that. The odds that I'll read one ebook two times on my e-reader are pretty slim.
If I love a book enough to read it more than once, I'll buy a print copy if it's available. The only way in which I can see reading a book more than once on my e-reader is if I love it but a print copy wasn't published.
I'm planning to pick up my Kindle by the end of this month. Then I can join the rest of the e-book revolution. Expect to see lots of excitement over my new toy and a growing disinterest in buying non-indie books.

I loved art GCSE, creating a painted mannequin and an ever so hippy style eye study in oil pastel for my final projects, and it was my lead course at college, where I enjoyed mixed media. However, my patience and skills only developed so far and it was at college I found my love for media which would ultimately lead me to the career I have now.
For now, it's where Ethan feeds himself breakfast or dinner and where he gets his pens out and creates his next masterpiece.
He generally asks us to draw something or to at least start the process, then he picks a colour in turn to squiggle across the page with before changing his mind, putting one back and picking another instead.
We put a pack of Maped felt pens into his stocking and these are his favourite go-to colouring tools now, everytime. They're easy for him to hold, they have a soft tip and what's great for me to know is they use washable ink which comes out of most things... trust me!
What I particularly like is the clever stand they come in - it took us a little while to realise just how clever it is!
With no need for lids, the pens are put away into integrated caps within the soft, round stand itself. This keeps all the pens together and pushes out into a fun looking stand that's also really practical, as it stands quite firm on the table top.
Ethan knows where the pens are kept and regularly points excitedly in their direction and says 'PENS!' (he will often do this when he sees me writing too), so drawing is becoming part of his daily routine at home as well as at nursery.
And he's getting pretty good, I think!
My budding little artist.
* Thank you to Maped for sending us the Color'Peps Jungle Innovation colouring pens, which I believe retail around £4.99 which is great value for such a good quality, fum product in my opinion, and Ethan's too.

The purchase of a stroller in Singapore can be the cause of much hand-wringing and deliberation for parents. Here, we road-test three options on the market here.
Valco Snap
– Infant car-seat compatible
– Fully reclining seat
– Peek-a-boo window and roll-up pockets for extra airflow
Child weight: Up to 20kg
Colours: Black
Stroller weight: 6.2kg
Price: $399
Available at: First Few Years, #05-40/41 Paragon Shopping Centre, 290 Orchard Road, and online at firstfewyears.com.sg
The road test: Valco Snap
1. Easy to fold: I managed to intuitively figure out how to unfold and fold the buggy without instructions, and one-handedly, too.
2. Forward facing: There is no option to change the direction, but windows in the sunshade allow the child to see you.
3. Wheels: No fear of getting a puncture – the tyres are tubeless. It has a flip-flop- friendly foot brake.
4. Easy to move: One or two-handed, pushing the buggy was easy, with a smooth ride for my toddler in the fully reclining seat.
5. Size and portability: The buggy falls within the lightweight category at 6.2kg, but the carry strap is quite thin and it did dig into my shoulders, making it feel heavier. While it wouldn't be ideal to carry for any significant amount of time, it is light enough to throw into a car or take on to a bus.
6. Accessories: In the past I've had to buy two shade extenders to contend with the Singapore sunshine. So I was impressed with the built-in extension, which opened with one zip and gave my toddler significant extra coverage. The under-seat storage holds one full supermarket bag. There's a built-in handle strap for extra bags, something you usually have to purchase as an extra, and pockets in the rear could easily store a water bottle, phone and wallet.

Earlier at the World Economic Forum in Davos, the emerging fintech industry took center stage. And no discussion on fintech would be complete without talking about Bitcoin. Willem Buiter, Citi's chief economist, however, decided to rain on the digital currency's parade by unequivocally declaring it a failure.
The issue of the blockchain, for example, is particularly problematic because of the controversy that surrounds the virtual currency, bitcoin. "We know that bitcoin itself is a complete failure and shows the number one law of programming and software: that anything that can be programmed can be hacked. So nothing is completely secure," said Willem Buiter, Citi's chief economist and former member of the Bank of England's rate-setting committee. "The cyber boys . . . they believe that this is something that can just work on its own and allow a seamless web of costless transactions across the world. Forget it."
Who knows what Bitcoin will or won't end up doing in the future, but statements from obviously biased sources like Mr. Buiter remind me of this gem of a Newsweek article from 1995:
The Internet? Bah!
Clifford Stoll, 1995
After two decades online, I'm perplexed. It's not that I haven't had a gas of a good time on the Internet. I've met great people and even caught a hacker or two. But today, I'm uneasy about this most trendy and oversold community. Visionaries see a future of telecommuting workers, interactive libraries and multimedia classrooms. They speak of electronic town meetings and virtual communities. Commerce and business will shift from offices and malls to networks and modems. And the freedom of digital networks will make government more democratic.Baloney.
Do our computer pundits lack all common sense? The truth in no online database will replace your daily newspaper, no CD-ROM can take the place of a competent teacher and no computer network will change the way government works.
Consider today's online world. The Usenet, a worldwide bulletin board, allows anyone to post messages across the nation. Your word gets out, leapfrogging editors and publishers. Every voice can be heard cheaply and instantly. The result? Every voice is heard. The cacophany more closely resembles citizens band radio, complete with handles, harrasment, and anonymous threats. When most everyone shouts, few listen. How about electronic publishing? Try reading a book on disc. At best, it's an unpleasant chore: the myopic glow of a clunky computer replaces the friendly pages of a book. And you can't tote that laptop to the beach. Yet Nicholas Negroponte, director of the MIT Media Lab, predicts that we'll soon buy books and newspapers straight over the Intenet. Uh, sure.
What the Internet hucksters won't tell you is tht the Internet is one big ocean of unedited data, without any pretense of completeness. Lacking editors, reviewers or critics, the Internet has become a wasteland of unfiltered data. You don't know what to ignore and what's worth reading. Logged onto the World Wide Web, I hunt for the date of the Battle of Trafalgar. Hundreds of files show up, and it takes 15 minutes to unravel them–one's a biography written by an eighth grader, the second is a computer game that doesn't work and the third is an image of a London monument. None answers my question, and my search is periodically interrupted by messages like, "Too many connectios, try again later."
Won't the Internet be useful in governing? Internet addicts clamor for government reports. But when Andy Spano ran for county executive in Westchester County, N.Y., he put every press release and position paper onto a bulletin board. In that affluent county, with plenty of computer companies, how many voters logged in? Fewer than 30. Not a good omen.
Point and click:Then there are those pushing computers into schools. We're told that multimedia will make schoolwork easy and fun. Students will happily learn from animated characters while taught by expertly tailored software.Who needs teachers when you've got computer-aided education? Bah. These expensive toys are difficult to use in classrooms and require extensive teacher training. Sure, kids love videogames–but think of your own experience: can you recall even one educational filmstrip of decades past? I'll bet you remember the two or three great teachers who made a difference in your life.
Then there's cyberbusiness. We're promised instant catalog shopping–just point and click for great deals. We'll order airline tickets over the network, make restaurant reservations and negotiate sales contracts. Stores will become obselete. So how come my local mall does more business in an afternoon than the entire Internet handles in a month?Even if there were a trustworthy way to send money over the Internet–which there isn't–the network is missing a most essential ingredient of capitalism: salespeople.
What's missing from this electronic wonderland? Human contact. Discount the fawning techno-burble about virtual communities. Computers and networks isolate us from one another. A network chat line is a limp substitute for meeting friends over coffee. No interactive multimedia display comes close to the excitement of a live concert. And who'd prefer cybersex to the real thing? While the Internet beckons brightly, seductively flashing an icon of knowledge-as-power, this nonplace lures us to surrender our time on earth. A poor substitute it is, this virtual reality where frustration is legion and where–in the holy names of Education and Progress–important aspects of human interactions are relentlessly devalued.

Scrappy Wednesday
11 comments:
Your nod to the eclipse makes me smile, I wondered what that black one was doing there. Thanks for the rolling nine patch, it helps to see them together. I've admired those pineapples but I didn't realize they were so small, I love them even more.ReplyDelete
Oh, I totally love the eclipse hexi. What a fun little surprise when you finish your quilt. I once considered taking up beekeeping, and in my reading I recall this line: You'll start for the bees, you'll quit because of the honey. There's a lot of honey in beekeeping, and you need lots of friends to take some of it off your hands. It's kind of like that with quilting: You'll start for the quilting, you'll quit because of the scraps!ReplyDelete
33 pieces for each 3.5 inch pineapple. INSANE! but beautiful.ReplyDelete
Love all your scrappy blocks.ReplyDelete
love seeing your scrap projects. especially your temecula mini. so so cute. those pineapples are adorable. I would never want to even try that small LOLReplyDelete
Those little pineapple blocks are so adorable! I'm way behind on the Temecula blocks--yours is very sweet.ReplyDelete
I love the recognition of the eclipse. I'm thinking about a temperature quilt for my son. He's an eagle scout and loves outdoors. I didn't know until recently that my 40 year old doesn't particularly care for red, so I can use lots of blues, grays and yellows - that should make a nice quilt for him since blue is his fav. Love your inspiration.ReplyDelete
Great fabric for the eclipse!! I'm looking for something to fussycut and applique onto my monday block.ReplyDelete
Love your black hexie for the eclipse, very appropriate. You've gotten lots of stitching done. Very fun scrappy projects.ReplyDelete
3.5" unfinished! They are so small and beautiful!ReplyDelete
Your pineapple blocks are fabulous! :0)ReplyDelete

FEW FOOD writers have done more to make vegans both cheer and grumble than Mark Bittman.
Certainly, the guy knows food, particularly the plant-based kind. He's a columnist for the New York Times Dining section and the lead food writer for the Sunday magazine. He writes for the Times opinion page and blogs, too. He also wrote the best-seller How to Cook Everything.
Leafy greens are a trendy topic now, but Bittman wrote the book on 'em back in 1995 (see here). He's done a vegetarian cookbook and has examined some of the problems associated with overconsumption of meat.
Last July, he slammed the dairy industry, busting the ad claim that drinking milk prevents osteoporosis and sharing how his heartburn disappeared when he went milk-free.
But Bittman is neither vegan nor vegetarian, which frustrates many animal-free foodies who'd love to count the outspoken straight-shooter as one of our own.
With his new book, VB6 (Clarkson Potter), Bittman pumps up that jam by suggesting that readers eat completely plant-based - until 6 p.m., when they can literally pig out. The book's full subtitle, Eat Vegan Before 6:00 to Lose Weight and Restore Your Health . . . for Good, marks its straightforward focus on health, although there's enough consideration of wider concerns to keep ethical vegans cheering - and grumbling.
When his doctor said to him, after some troubling blood work, "You should probably become a vegan," Bittman searched for a regimen that could improve his numbers and his weight while still allowing him to indulge in the foods he enjoyed most.
His only-after-6 approach isn't quite that simple, of course. The book could be called VUB6, because he also emphasizes unprocessed foods. It's not as though he's suggesting you eat Tofurky sausage for breakfast and Tofutti pizza for lunch, then fall "back" into an eat-everything dinner.
And even the B6 part has some wiggle room, as the plan is designed for individual customization. In an email exchange, I asked him how he went from one simple idea to a system whose kinks he'd worked out to the point that it was book-worthy.
"Really, I just started, plunged in without much of a clue," Bittman wrote back. "I believe any similar strategy that got me eating more plants and less other stuff would've worked. But this was easy and fine - after six weeks, I'd lost a bunch of weight and after 12 weeks my blood levels were all good. Both of those were stable for five years, and that's when I decided to write a book about it."
You can cheat here and there, and he does, but it's a sliding scale, he said. "To the extent I'm really strict about it, my weight stays down. When I cheat, it creeps up - which to me is a pretty good indication that it's sensible."
This positive-feedback loop helps make a plan like VB6 easier to adopt. Plus, many people find eating mostly whole, plant-based foods and less salt, sugar and dairy turns up your taste buds.
When I asked whether his palate had changed, Bittman wouldn't go that far, "but my satiety levels are different. I can make a stir-fry with very little meat or fish and think it's great. I really have adapted to the 'meat as treat' thing. I don't like dairy nearly as much as I used to, except good cheese. The rest of it I could take or leave."
VB6 indicts the high-fat, high-processed, high-meat standard American diet as a junk habit we need to break, Bittman said in his email: "The science tells us we should be eating more vegetables and other unprocessed plant foods, and less of everything else. That is pretty much established. If you eat less junk and fewer animal products, and in place of those you eat plants, you're better off."
Bittman said he is presenting one strategy for doing that. "You can do it religiously, you can do it casually, or you can figure out another strategy: vegan except weekends, vegan after 9 a.m., vegan except Tuesday and Thursday - whatever. The idea is to shift the percentage of calories you get from unprocessed plants to as high a percentage as you can. Bearing in mind, again, that vegans eat junk food, too."
Fair enough. But couldn't similar results be achieved with an all-vegan plan that's unprocessed before 6, then pig out on vegan junk food after?
Sure, Bittman said.
So, if VB6 is good as far as it goes, why not go all the way? I was going to ask him, but Bittman had already answered that question in a blog post, "Why I'm Not a Vegan."
Some fans, he noted, had been grumbling, "Isn't being a part-time vegan like being a little bit pregnant?"
"Obviously not," he responded.
To him, vegan means plant-based eating, which one can start, stop and restart at will. As for the 1944 Donald Watson definition - completely forgoing animal use - Bittman's not ready to go zero-hog, waiting for "the emerging dominance of a morality that asserts that we have no right to 'exploit' our fellow animals for our own benefit," or other trends that would make "universal, full-time veganism" a good blanket recommendation.
"VB6 is about changing your diet," he told me. "It's permanent and it's huge. Ethics enters into it, of course . . . we should not be torturing animals or treating them like widgets."
And then there's the planet: "Animal production as it stands now is probably the biggest agricultural threat to the environment," he noted.
VB6's health-motivation strategy could help people address these other issues by changing to more positive habits. "I'm more focused on real food than on pure veganism," Bittman said. "Junk food, highly processed food - animal or not - is really the biggest problem in health."
And if people cut down their meat and dairy intake, who'll complain? He reminded me that "any strategy that reduces animal consumption is a good thing."
Very true. And the more people eating animal-free for whatever reason, the more menus will adapt. Which leaves vegans like me with less to grumble about.
A VB6 Day
Mark Bittman's new book, VB6, includes a 28-day, meal-by-meal plan to keep daily food choices fun, varied and nutritious. Here are some options, referencing recipes in the book:
BREAKFAST: Hot oatmeal; blueberry smoothie; homemade cold cereal with almond milk; or Scrambled Tofu With Tomatoes.
LUNCH: Chickpea Ratatouille and a salad; Creamed Mushrooms on Toast (see recipe); Now-or-Later Vegan Burgers on Daily Salad Bowl; or Vegetable Miso Soup With Squash and Tofu.
SNACK: Homemade Tortilla Crisps; Spiked Guacamole; Kale Chips Lacinato; Beet Candy; Tofu Jerky.
DINNER: Sweet Potato Frittata, with or without bacon; Fisherman's Stew; Hurry Curry With Brussels Sprouts, Red Peppers and Green Beans with D.I.Y. Crusty Bread; or Shrimp Tabouleh With Cooked Kale.
DESSERT: Frozen fruit or sorbet; sweetened yogurt; popcorn.

Today I have the exciting opportunity to introduce you to my friend Erin, the incredibly talented blogger over at Texanerin Baking. She is in the middle of an incredibly busy cookbook project and invited me to guest post today so I urge you to head over to Texanerin Baking to check out this mouth-watering Cherry Ginger Lime Smoothie.
While you're over there, be sure to explore ALL of Erin's drool-worthy baked goods that are totally good for you (think whole grains, non-processed sugars, etc.) but don't taste anything like health food. A few of my favorites include Chocolate Peanut Butter Rice Krispie Treats, Chocolate Banana Muffins and her gluten free, 100% whole grain Banana Pancakes.
Enjoy this Cherry Ginger Lime Smoothie Recipe and don't forget to wish Erin good luck with her cookbook!

Hey All 🙂 🙂
First of all a Big THANK YOU to those who left me such sweet mails and comments to know my where abouts 😛 I moved to Hong Kong few weeks back and it has been quite tedious in terms of setting up a new place, getting everything sorted and in general digesting the fact that I no more wake up in my city with my mom making me the best chai in the world! It has been really tough staying away from family but I am finally able to get things back on track and thus will now be posting a series of pending posts!
With the change in place comes change in weather, water and eating habits which has obviously taken a huge toll on my skin and hair. In my previous posts I had mentioned about the new skincare finds which was giving me the best skin days or rather helping me maintain a healthy skin and I am here to talk about one of those today, the contents of Reverie Box April 2017!

Price: INR 1599
Availability: Currently the April 2017 box is sold out but you can still purchase a few products from their store.
Review of the Reverie Box April 2017:
I know its very late to review the april box but i really wanted to test out the products in the box and give a mini review for each of them, so here it goes 🙂
Varshavan Wild Rose and Clay Cleanser and Mask (INR 1599 for 100gm) – This heavenly scented mask comes in a test tube, almost! I only use this as a mask because this precious mixture is too good to be used just as a cleanser. It does an excellent job at removing the excess oil and dirt from my face which results in bright, clear and baby soft skin. I once left this mask on for an hour and it actually cleared a few whiteheads, blackheads and dried up an about-to-burst zit! So I am currently left with just one more use of it and wondering how to get a full size of this product delivered here 🙁
Roots and Herbs Purifying Rosemary Toner (INR 850 for 100ml) – One of my favourite brands since none of their products have disappointed me so far. Love their Body scrub, I am almost out of their Pomegranate Kaya Kalp Elixir (review will be coming in a few days) and makeup cleansing oil. The Purifying Rosemary Toner soothes, refreshes and preps my skin for the next layers of moisturiser and sunscreen without forming a film on top of the skin. I just spray this directly onto my skin after cleansing and it instantly calms and soothes any irritations!
Vana Vidhi 'Fruit of the Gods' Himalayan Seabuckthorn moisturiser (INR 1599 for 100gm) – This moisturiser though smells like a medicine, works really well at moisturising and also serves as a natural sun protection. After the toner I use this alone as both a moisturiser plus sunscreen and it sinks into the skin with a light massage without feeling heavy. I started using this when my skin was acting up due to the change in water and the humid weather here! Though it makes my skin a little sweaty in the first 2 minutes of application, with continuous use of this for just 3 to 4 days made my skin healthy, radiant and less oily. At the end of 2 weeks of just applying this during the day, my skin was moisturised, smooth and plump. Steeply priced but for how well it works, this is a definite repurchase!
Vana Vidhi Thai Spa Coconut Natural Face wash (INR 990 for 100ml) – In love with this face wash since it almost feels like cleansing skin with coconut milk!! Smells amazing and cleanses thoroughly leaving my skin soft and moisturised. If you have dry patches or in general dry skin, this would be an excellent cleanser. It also contains tiny and sparse granules which helps in mild exfoliation. Since it does not produce too much lather, I just massage my face with it for a minute and oh it leaves my skin baby soft and glowy 😛 Vana Vidhi products have quickly become a staple in my skincare routine but how I wish their products were a little more affordable 🙁
Overall, the April month's Reverie Box was a total steal with 4 amazing natural, skin-safe and cruelty free products. The Reverie Team is also very responsive to any queries you have which makes the purchase even more worthy!
This is NOT a sponsored post.
Have you tried any of the above products? Have a great week beauties 🙂

Denny Cordell, a record producer who worked with artists including Chet Baker, Tom Petty and Melissa Etheridge in a career that spanned three decades, died last Saturday at Mater Hospital in Dublin. He was 51 and had homes in County Carlow, Ireland, and New York City.
The cause was lymphoma, Island Records said.
Mr. Cordell was born in Buenos Aires and moved to England with his family when he was a child. He began his career in jazz, managing Baker for a time in the mid-1960's. He went to work for Island Records in 1965, leaving to produce the first album by the Moody Blues, "Go Now: The Moody Blues 1."
Working as an independent producer and with companies he formed, including Deram Records and Shelter Records, Mr. Cordell produced hits like Procul Harum's "Whiter Shade of Pale" and Joe Cocker's "With a Little Help From My Friends."
In the 1970's, he signed a Florida band, Mudcrutch, that evolved into Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers. He produced several of Mr. Petty's albums. His company, Shelter, released Bob Marley's first American single, "Duppy Conqueror."
Mr. Cordell left the music business in 1980 to breed thoroughbred horses in County Carlow. In 1991, he returned to Island Records as creative director, bringing the Irish rock band the Cranberries to the label. He also helped produce Ms. Etheridge's current album, "Yes I Am."

Griffins 1 - Won both their games 8 v 6, and 9 v 5
Griffins 2 - held both games to a draw 7 v 7 and 9 v 9.
Brilliant effort by all the boys and great support from parents. Well done and thanks everyone.

There is no doubt in my mind that G-Cloud has helped to widen the playing field and open up public sector opportunities to SME suppliers like Carrenza and at the end of the day that was what it was designed for.
G Cloud's "quicker, cheaper and more competitive" cloud services to quote Francis Maude, will also help the Government to meet its "digital by default" strategy and service standard.
That as of December 69% of vendors on G-Cloud* were yet to transact doesn't surprise me. Many of the services currently offered by vendors are speculative, they allow them to test demand while they invest in their ability to deliver.
I suspect when G-Cloud 6 is released it will show the successful suppliers offering many more services than they did under G-Cloud 5. It's also very easy to get onto the framework, but it's not very easy to be ready to sell things, processes need to change, services need to become compliant, significant investment is needed.
These are barriers to SME suppliers that they have to commit to getting over, that's expensive and it takes time.
Selling to government customers is not the same as selling to commercial ones. It's not initially about talking to people, relationships, or traditional business trust. That comes later, after you have delivered.
Getting that first win with a given client is about making your services easy to buy by ensuring that they meet or exceed the requirements laid down. My team have put a lot of effort into looking at what Government wants to buy and tailoring a public sector offering accordingly.
Some suppliers have missed this point, and instead have just taken the services they already sell, and offered them via G-Cloud and looked at it in terms of 'if you build it, they will come'. What they should be doing is investing in their product to make sure it does the job government needs it to do.
For vendors, the current structure of G-Cloud means that we have to be smart. We retain our relationships by being good at what we do, and by being fairly priced, not because our customers can't get away.
The focus on collaboration follows the principle that there is enough work here so no good vendor is going to starve. For the customer, effective collaboration ensures service continuity and cost effectiveness. It's a good thing. Changing the way Government procures its services is also a long-term process, but it should show progression, if the numbers look like this in a year, it will be more of a problem.
Overall; this kind of change is not only time consuming, it is organic and it relies on the flexibility and ingenuity of all parties working together to develop the processes and build the products that government wants to buy.
In the long run it will reap real benefits both for government and the citizen in delivering cheaper, more agile services.
For vendors, those who embrace the process and the paradigm, it offers the chance to build long lasting and valuable commercial relationships.

The day started with a few purchases.. namely from By Lori Designs (Lollipops), which I had been spying for a week or so. I then played with print and cuts and digital kits and finally I had to copy the display card on By Lori Designs and I came up with this. I used my copics and finally understand the numbers on the pens and how they work.. makes a huge difference with blending!
My sewing machine came out to play, my ribbon box was raided and i even managed to find a button to play with! The paper is Cosmo from a 6 inch pack I have. The image was printed on my normal printer and then cut with a print and cut on my Gazelle. Following the instructions from the ever brilliant Alisa.

Physical fitness has always been important (you know, to avoid dying prematurely), but it's perhaps more imperative that we get our kids moving now, in an age where the whole world can be accessed in a smartphone. How do you fight tech's attempt at making your children sedentary? Fight it with tech.
Here's why you should buy your kids the Fitbit Ace.
It's shiny and cool
It doesn't matter what generation you hail from — having the coolest stuff always makes you a bigger hit at school, playing sports, and hanging out with your friends. The Fitbit Ace is just that — it's a textured rubber wristband with an LED display that shows the time (with 10 clock faces to choose from), Reminders to Move, goal progress, and more. And it comes in two colors — blue and purple — which marries fashion and function without getting mired in "will they like this color?"
The rubber wristband is strong, durable, and comfortable, which makes it perfect for smaller wrists. They'll be able to wear it all day without wanting to rip it off, and it can stand up to the daily wear and tear that kid life might bring. Gym class? Recess? An after-school bike ride with friends? The Ace can hang on and keep up wherever fitness takes your child. Being showerproof is huge, too, so you'll never have to worry if your kid gets caught in the rain (though swimming with it on isn't a good idea).
It's feature-packed for a reasonable price
The Fitbit Ace is essentially the kid version of the Fitbit Alta, so it doesn't have the text, call, and calendar notifications, but that's where you get the price break and that's why it's the kid version. For $100, you get the "Alta lite", which gives your kid the following:
- Reminders to Move: Your child will be reminded and encouraged to hit their daily goal of at least 60 minutes of activity.
- ** Sleep tracking**: Your child will be able to track their sleep duration and sleep schedule to help develop better bedtime habits.
- Friendly competition: To motivate your child to reach beyond their daily goals, they can engage in step challenges, compare their progress with friends, and even message and cheer on family members, all in the kid-friendly version of the Fitbit app.
- 5-day battery life: Kids don't have the patience to sit around and wait for their Fitbit to charge, and it's unlikely they'll remember to charge it up every night, so the Ace has a 5-day rechargeable battery life.
- Step and active minute tracking: The Ace will track your child's steps throughout the day and will even record active minutes when they're playing sports, working out, or getting active in other ways.
- Goal celebrations and badges: Everyone loves to celebrate goals, which is why the Ace sends your kid celebration messages when they hit their daily goals, as well as virtual badges for larger milestones.
- LED screen: A classic pedometer was fine 20 years ago, but screens are where it's at, so having one of their wrist will help your kid stay motivated to meet goals and enjoy the ride while they check on their progress on the fly.
Fitbit is a trusted brand
As one of the first truly big fitness tracker companies, Fitbit has solidified itself as the gold standard in trackers. That means you can buy with confidence knowing that Fitbit stands behind its products and provides a wealth of supports resources if you have questions about using your device or the Fitbit app.
The Fitbit catalogue is also growing steadily, offering trackers for your whole family, as well as earbuds and a smart scale. When your kids outgrow their Ace (if they outgrow it), you'll have plenty of other choices to help keep them in the right track toward lifelong fitness.
Should you buy your kids the Fitbit Ace? Yes
At $100, the Fitbit Ace is the perfect blend of features and value. It's rugged enough to go just about everywhere with your child, it tracks everything your kid needs to start paying attention to and developing enthusiasm for their own physical fitness, and it's not so expensive that you wouldn't want them bringing it to school or to the park.

It's common for your skin to experience more dryness as you age when compared to in years prior. This is due in part to the fact that your oil producing glands will reduce the amount of oil they create, little, by little, by little. So, even if you had previously had oily skin in your teens, 20s or 30s chances are that by age 40, your once oily skin will start to experience some dryness. And, once you are in your 50s and 60s, your mature skin may become even more dry. Dry skin can be uncomfortable and appear flaky and parched. You may also find that when your skin is dry, your existing fine lines and wrinkles appear more noticeable. Don't let this sign of mature skin aging put a damper on your otherwise beautiful skin. Instead, try to not limit your moisturizing efforts to one face cream and look for multiple ways to nourish and hydrate dryness.
Mature skin moisturizing skin care product #1: Serum with antioxidants. Skin serums are typically lightweight – this makes them great for layering under your day or night cream – and they can contain higher concentrations of anti-aging ingredients. A serum formulated with antioxidants like vitamin C, vitamin A or vitamin E can help reduces oxidative stress in your skin while delivering moisture at the same time.
Mature skin moisturizing skin care product #2: Day cream with SPF. Protect your skin from the sun's harmful rays that have the ability to not only exaggerate some existing signs of skin aging, but exacerbate skin dryness too. UV rays can cause any existing or added moisture on your skin's surface to evaporate, leaving behind dryness and further dehydrating your mature skin. So seek shade when you can and protect your skin with a daytime moisturizer formulated with SPF broad spectrum protection.
Mature skin moisturizing skin care product #3: Night cream with retinoids. Retinoids, like pro-retinol, are derivatives of Vitamin A that can help refine the surface of your skin. While refining your mature skin's surface, dry, dead skin cells can be loosened and removed, revealing skin that appears more bright, fresh and hydrated.
Mature skin moisturizing skin care product #4: Nourishing facial oil. Perfect for nourishing mature skin dryness, facial oil formulas can be used alone or in combination with other moisturizing skin care products. You can add a few drops of facial oil into your day or night cream or apply it as a first layer of intense hydration under your serum and face cream. You can also apply facial oil as a final layer of moisture, to act as a barrier that seals in that added hydration from your serum and creams.
Mature skin moisturizing skin care product #5: Eye cream with hyaluronic acid. The skin around your eyes can become very dry – and in turn become more likely to wrinkle and sag especially as you age. Surge this area with moisture in the morning and at night with an eye cream specifically formulated for this dry skin area. An eye cream formulated with hyaluronic acid will help dry skin in this area appear more plump and feel better hydrated for longer periods of time.
You may have to think beyond your face cream in order to truly hydrate mature skin dryness, but that's not a problem, because thankfully there's a bunch of moisturizing skin care products out there that can help hydrate your very dry skin.

The market valuation of Reliance Industries today briefly surged past Rs 7 lakh crore mark, making it the second company after TCS to achieve this milestone. RIL's market capitalisation (m-cap) rose to Rs 7,01,404 crore (over USD 102 billion) in early trade on BSE.
The m-cap has been calculated at the stock's 52-week high price of Rs 1,107.25 and for the morning exchange rate of Rs 68.32 against the US dollar.
At the close of trade, however, the m-cap slipped below the Rs 7 lakh crore-mark and stood at Rs 6,94,944.56 crore.
Shares of the company ended 1.34 per cent higher at Rs 1,096.75 on BSE. During the day, it jumped 2.31 per cent to Rs 1,107.25.
Reliance Industries yesterday crossed the USD 100-billion market capitalisation mark for the first time in the last 10 years.
Earlier, Reliance Industries had breached this mark in intra-day trade on October 18, 2007. The US dollar was quoted at Rs 39.59 at that time.
The market valuation of RIL had crossed the Rs 6 lakh crore mark in November last year.
The company announced aggressive business plan at its annual general meeting (AGM) held last week. The stock has been on an uptrend ever since and has gained nearly 14 per cent since July 5.
IT bellwether Tata Consultancy Services' market valuation had in May surged past Rs 7 lakh crore.
TCS is the country's most valued firm with a market cap of Rs 7,58,536.46 crore followed by RIL, HDFC Bank (Rs 5,67,888.71 crore), HUL (Rs 3,77,512.14 crore) and ITC (Rs 3,30,088.43 crore) in the top five order.

We sat down with Jed Christensen, from Utah's Own; Julie Peck-Dabling, Urban Farming Manager Salt Lake County; and Jim Bradley, Salt Lake County Councilman, to talk about Urban Farming.
So what is the difference between Urban Farming and more traditional Farming?
It seems to be the size of the operation and in many cases homes, highways, or Home Depots surround all four sides of the plot.
We will talk about what Salt Lake County has done to put non-productive land back into production. What programs are available to the public? Along with looking more broadly at the growing focus on local food.
