W.W.S.W. Pick: Adidas by O.C. Rod Laver Vintage High-Top Sneakers ($212)
?Colourful kicks are practically a Cara Delevingne staple at this point, and these Adidas by Opening Ceremony sneakers are the perfect nod to the model's playfully quirky sensibilities. We imagine she'd play up the striped print with an equally vibrant sweater.

W.W.S.W. Pick: Charlotte Olympia Miranda Satin Wedge Sandals ($895)
Given Solange Knowles' affinity for head-turning prints, we couldn't think of a more perfect shoe for the style savant than Charlotte Olympia's Miranda Satin Wedge Sandals ($895). We love them for their seasonably appropriate floral motif and delicate ankle strap.

W.W.S.W. Pick: Derek Lam Natural Leather and Multi Snake Bijou Sandals ($578)
Picking our favourite Derek Lam shoe is a lot like picking our favourite Gwyneth Paltrow look: it's difficult to choose just one. That being said, we're particularly drawn to the designer's neutral snake-print sandals and have a hunch Paltrow would appreciate their sleek and subversively sexy design too.

W.W.S.W. Pick: Marni Fussbett Sandals ($590)
Chalk it up to Celine's furry sandals or our inner granola, but we can't get enough of spring's Birkenstock-inspired footwear. Ashley Olsen has been spotted on more than one occasion wearing a similar style, which leads us to believe she would enjoy Marni's sleek take on the trend as well. We'd wear them with a sleeveless blouse and tennis skirt for a sportif twist.
Similar Style:
?Forever 21 Mesh Strappy Sandals ($15)
Johanna Sandals ($495) in Vine
This glossy heel is a knockout both coming (sleek ankle cuff and toe strap) and going (wraparound buckles and cool cutouts).

Valerie Faux Suede Plexi Wedges ($1055)
?See-through wedges are in perfect keeping with spring's transparent accessory trend.
Dal Sandals ($350)
?A gem-encrusted heel spells eveningwear with a capital E, but try it with a pair of cuffed jeans for an unexpected contrast.
Juliette Wedge Sandals ($495)
?Architectural wedges demand the spotlight, so keep them there with a mix of understated neutrals.
Leather High-Top Wedge Sneakers ($345)
?Take style cues from Chloe Moretz and Jessica Biel, and try a pair of punchy sneakers for your next off-duty outing.
Brighton Platform Mules ($192)
?Nod to the '70s with a pair of patent leather mules--Chloe Sevigny would approve!
Clemence Studded Heels ($800)
?Stud-embellished white heels will take you from the office to after-sunset cocktails to date night with ease.
Giya Shoes ($129)
?Pointed-toe loafers are a chic masculine-feminine hybrid. Add extra polish with tailored trousers.
Saviour Flat Sandals ($100)
?A snake-embossed slingback sandal is a luxe alternative to flip-flops and will be a hit at all your poolside BBQs.

2019 IWT Divisions:
Youth (Under 20)
Masters (45 and over)
Grand Masters (55 and over)
Qualification for Pro Division
Qualification for the Pro bracket will be according to;
Qualification via experience
Winning a previous year Amateur overall title
Head Judge's discretion
There may be times when it is advantageous to fill empty spots in the Pro bracket, if this is deemed appropriate then these spots will be offered to Amateur riders according to a number of criteria outlined below, weather condition and number of places available. Riders wanting to maintain their Amateur ranking can be allowed to enter a maximum of two Pro events without losing their Amateur status in any given season.
1. Local Wildcard
2. IWT rolling Amateur ranking (best 4 results from previous 6 events)
3. Trial heat results
The inclusion of Amateur riders in the Pro bracket is intended to be offered as a development opportunity for riders looking to move into the Pro bracket in future seasons as well as enriching the Pro bracket at any one event. At no time should the eventual conclusion of the Pro bracket be compromised by this process and it may be deemed that any empty spaces may or may not be awarded. Where there is a situation not covered by this statement the Head Judge's discretion will be used and be final.
Riders are seeded according to their IWT Rolling Ranking which is calculated from the best 4 results from the previous 1 year of events, hence a whole year of data is always being used. Additionally, the current seeded event will be weighted by a factor of 2, so that local riders may earn a stronger seed based on their performance from the previous year. If a PWA rider with a current or previous year top 10 ranking enters an IWT event then the Head Judge reserves the right to use discretion in the seeding process.
Participants best 4 placings in the 2018 International Windsurfing Tour will count in the final tally for overall winners. Points will be awarded in each event with the winner scoring maximum points. Winners will be awarded at each individual event and the overall tour champions will be announced at the ceremony following the tour finale in Maui. In the event of a tie in the Overall Rank, a 1-heat sail off will be run. If time or wind does not allow the 1-heat sail off, the tie will be broken by the rider placing highest in the final event. If the final event does not happen due to conditions, the tie will be broken by the rider placing highest in their previously dropped 5th event. Points will be awarded as follows:
Judging Criteria
Wave Riding Notes
Wave ride scores will be based on: Wave height, turns in critical sections, angles in the turns, length of ride, completion of tricks, technical skills demonstrated and wow factor to the judges. Things to consider when selecting your wave: size, caught at peak, speed, continuity, length of ride, functional moves [ex. bottom turns], tricks, vertical riding, progressive moves, use of rail, linking sections, number and quality of turns (critical section), aerials, moves/tricks using the wave and landing back on the wave. Turns made in the critical part of the wave will be judged: Highly! The more critical the section, the tighter the turns and harder the hit, the better the score. We want to see big connected hits in the right spots. Timing is a big factor in wave performance. Best scores will be given for critical riding in the power of the wave, going most vertical, use of your rail, and continuation along the peeling wave. Basically, staying as close to the power of the wave while going vertical and making use of the whole wave will score highest.
Jumping Notes
Jump scoring will be based on: Difficulty of the move, height, execution and landing, how clean, how smooth, creativity, some reward for pushing new moves but landing is much better. The highest scoring jump of each type will be counted. In the case where two jumps are being counted they need to be different moves, or different variations of the same move. Judges will be scored according to the level of execution and the difficulty of the move and the details below are for guide purposes only;
• Straight jump – 1 to 3 average – could be more depending on height and style, one handed, rail grab etc. adds 0.2 – 1.0 points
• Table Top – 3 to 4 average – could be higher for depending on degree of tweak, one handed adds 0.2 – 1.0 points
• Forward Loop – 3.5 to 5.5 average – could be more depending on height and style, one handed adds 0.2 – 1.0 points
• Push Loop – 4 to 6 average – could be more depending on height and style, one handed adds 0.2 – 1.0 points
• Back Loop – 6 to 8 average – could be more depending on height and style, one handed adds 0.2 – 1.0 points, one footed adds 0.2 – 1.0 points
• Tweaked Push Loop – 6.5 to 8.5 – could be more depending on tweak, height, and style, one handed adds 0.2 – 1.0 points
• Double Forward – 9 to 10 depending on style, height etc.
• Pushloop Forward – 9.5 to 10 depending on style, height etc.
• Other combination moves – points will be awarded by discretion
• One handed, rail grabs etc. – these variations add to your score and depending on the style, duration etc. your points will increase between 0.2 and 1.0 points.
Changes – throughout the Tour the judges and organization reserve the right to change and update the judging criteria according to feedback and evaluation of heats, rider comments, sponsor feedback and more.
Before round 3, if an advancing rider drops out of the event, the spot may be filled at the head judge's discretion. Most often this would be done using an extra heat of top people cut from the previous round.
In the event of an athlete entering and attending an event who receives a Did Not Sail (DNS), last place points will be awarded. DNS qualifies as a sailor who has entered and attended an event but was unable to compete. If an athlete is injured or has to withdraw from the event, he/she will be awarded points earned and will be considered last place in the upcoming round.
Division winners must attend the closing ceremony in order to be guaranteed prize money and trophy.

Much to their chagrin, many buyers, sellers and owners are finding that their homes aren't worth what they thought. At least not in the eyes of the professionals hired to tell lenders what the places could fetch if borrowers failed to make their payments.
In a perfect world, the value of a property is what a ready, willing and able buyer will pay for it. But the housing market is imperfect at best.
For one thing, values rise and fall with the tides. For another, market forces do not act as freely as they should.
For example, buyers sometimes will pay whatever the seller asks to get a house they've come to love, whether or not the price has any basis in reality. And in a few instances, buyers and sellers conspire to inflate the agreed-upon price to defraud the lender and line their pockets.
So, an appraiser, a trained valuation expert who can give the property the once-over and give the lender his or her opinion of its worth, is needed.
But the art of appraising is just that, an art, not a science. And though those who practice it hold the fate of sellers, buyers and refinancers in their hands, they are not gods. If you honestly believe yours has made a mistake, you can appeal his finding to your lender.
Start by finding out whether yours is a full-blown appraisal or an electronic one. More and more lenders use automated valuations, particularly in the home-equity sector, to speed the process and cut costs. But they are notoriously inaccurate.
AVMs, or automated valuation models, give lenders a 30,000-foot view of housing values, especially when they are lending only 75 percent of what the house is worth. But they won't do on a house-by-house basis when lenders are putting up 95 percent or more of the home's value.
Whether you are seeking a home-equity loan or a primary mortgage, ask to have your place valued by a person who looks at your specific house, compares it to others in the neighborhood, checks out the community and does all the things an appraiser is supposed to do. In most cases, lenders will comply, especially if you are willing to write the check to cover the several hundred dollars for a full appraisal.
If a real, live appraiser is responsible for a valuation you think has come in too low, your appeal becomes a little more problematic -- if only because you are dealing with people who, unlike machines, have feelings. So to keep your appeal from becoming an exercise in futility, do it with as much finesse as possible.
"When a lender reassigns the appraiser to take another look at a house," a real estate broker whose name is long forgotten once told me, "it's like telling him he screwed up the first time. How many people are going to admit that?"
Of course, you can always enlist another appraiser. But you'll have to pay the freight a second time, too. Moreover, to stand any chance of winning your point, the second valuation must be more than 5 percent higher than the first. Anything less is considered an acceptable difference.
But, even if the second appraisal is far above the first, the lender gets to pick the appraisal on which the loan is based.
While this may seem as if the cards are stacked, you can level the playing field by suggesting, firmly but nicely, that the appraiser assigned by the lender erred and requesting, again nicely, that he take a second look. And you can grease the wheel further by doing some of the appraisal spadework on your own. It may take time and effort, but it could pay off.
Your job is to search out "comparables" the appraiser may have missed.
A comparable is a property of the same size and style in the same location and with the same features as yours. To determine a fair-market value for the subject property, an appraiser looks for recent sales of several comparable properties.
Usually, however, they limit their search for "comps" to the multiple-listing service (MLS) operated by the local real estate association. So, they may not be looking at the entire market.
Though enough sales pass through the typical MLS that an appraiser should have little trouble finding comps, not every deal goes through the system. Independent brokers who are not MLS members make many of them, and some are made without the help of an agent. Then, too, some MLS members don't put all their listings into the system.
As a result, half of all transactions in some major markets occur outside the MLS. Your job is to find them. And to do that, you'll have to comb the land records at the local courthouse.
Remember, though, that you are looking for sales not just in the same general neighborhood. You want at least two, but preferably three, of the same style -- ranch to ranch, for example, not ranch to Colonial -- size and features. Also, sales should be no more than six months old, and the more recent the better.
If your search bears no fruit, turn your attention to the comps cited by the appraiser. Sometimes they are not really comparable.
While the appraiser is required to go inside the subject property and measure every room, he does not have to do the same with the comps upon which he bases his valuation. He may have been inside one or even two, if he has appraised those properties. But more often than not, his knowledge of them is based entirely on their description in the MLS or the public land records.
Often, those narratives are far from accurate. Sometimes, they're incomplete; other times, they're blatant advertisements. A "large, wooded lot" may have but one tree, for example. And wallboard is hardly a fair comparison to your lovely wood-paneled recreation room with its wet bar and fireplace.
The trick is to find as many differences as possible in your favor, differences the appraiser may not have known about or failed to consider. In other words, try to find undefined superficial values where the appraiser can say you are right.
One item often overlooked is the age of the comparable house; another is the size of the lot; and a third is room sizes.
Of course, this kind of detective work requires that you visit comps with pad, pencil, tape measure and a sharp eye for detail. It also helps that they have cooperative occupants who will let you snoop around.
Most appraisers are aware of their shortcomings so if your pilgrimage turns up major differences, they should be willing to re-evaluate their valuation.
"We're not arbitrary," says one expert who claims he has no problems changing his opinion based on new findings. "We're open-minded within reason. After all, we're only as good as the data that's available to us."

Pole signs always came in pairs. So how come there is only one? Who knows? I do feel lucky to have even one of these. It just seems so untouched. Note the flared sides and the beading all around the sign. The flared sides are unusual, and the beading shows that this sign is its original height and never cut down. The sign translates (figuratively) "Speaking about the old incidents as though they had just occurred."

Two big announcements from 37signals
Two big announcements.
February 5, 2014.
This year marks 37signals' 15th year in business. And today is Basecamp's 10th birthday. We have a lot to celebrate, and two exciting announcements to share. But first, let's set the scene with some history.
37signals was founded back in 1999 as a web design firm. With the release of Basecamp in 2004, we began our journey to become a software company. Once Basecamp revenue surpassed web design revenue in 2005, the transition was complete.
Since then we've launched Ta-da List (2005), Writeboard (2005), Backpack (2005), Campfire (2006), The Job Board & Gig Board (2006), Highrise (2007), Sortfolio (2009), the all new Basecamp (2012), Know Your Company (2013), and We Work Remotely (2013).
We also created and open sourced Ruby on Rails (2004), wrote a few books (Defensive Design for the Web (2004), Getting Real (2006), REWORK (2010), and REMOTE (2013)), and published thousands of blog posts on Signal vs. Noise.
Fifteen years into it, we're proud of the work we've done and the business we've built. And business has never been better.
However, because we've released so many products over the years, we've become a bit scattered, a bit diluted. Nobody does their best work when they're spread too thin. We certainly don't. We do our best work when we're all focused on one thing.
Further, we've always enjoyed being a small company. Today we're bigger than we've ever been, but we're still relatively small at 43 people. So while we could hire a bunch more people to do a bunch more things, that kind of rapid expansion is at odds with our culture. We want to maintain the kind of company where everyone knows everyone's name. That's one of the reasons why so many of the people who work at 37signals stay at 37signals.
So with that in mind, last August we conducted a thorough review of our products, our customer base, our passions, and our visions of the company for the next 20 years. When we put it all on the table, everything lined up and pointed at one clear conclusion. We all got excited. We knew it was right.
So today, February 5, 2014, exactly ten years to the day since we launched Basecamp, we have a couple of big announcements to make.
Here's the first: Moving forward, we will be a one product company. That product will be Basecamp. Our entire company will rally around Basecamp. With our whole team - from design to development to customer service to ops - focused on one thing, Basecamp will continue to get better in every direction and on every dimension.
Basecamp is our best idea and our biggest winner. Over 15 million people have Basecamp accounts, and just last week another 6,622 companies signed up for new Basecamp accounts. Ten years into it, Basecamp keeps accelerating. We've had other big hits, but nothing quite like Basecamp.
When we meet people, and they ask us what we do, we say we work for 37signals. If they aren't in the tech world, they'll squint and say "what's that?". When we say "we're the folks who make Basecamp", their eyes light up and open wide. "Basecamp! Oh I love Basecamp! My wife uses Basecamp too! Even our church uses Basecamp!" We hear this kind of response over and over. People just love their Basecamp.
So that got us thinking... While 37signals is well known in tech circles, far more people around the world actually know us for Basecamp. And since we're going to be completely focused on Basecamp moving forward, why don't we just go all in on "Basecamp".
So here's the second big announcement: We're changing our name. 37signals is now Basecamp. "37signals" goes into the history books. From now on, we are Basecamp. Basecamp the company, Basecamp the product. We're one and the same.
With this change, we renew our long-term commitment to all things Basecamp. Basecamp on the web, Basecamp on iOS, Basecamp on Android, Basecamp via email, and Basecamp wherever else it makes sense. Each one of us will be dedicated to improving Basecamp, extending Basecamp's reach, expanding Basecamp's capabilities, and making sure our Basecamp customers are treated like royalty.
And we'll never forget what made Basecamp so popular in the first place: It just works. It's simple, it's easy to use, it's easy to understand, it's clear, it's reliable, and it's dependable. We'll continue to make it more of all of those things.
The last fifteen years have been a blast, but with every future moment focused on Basecamp, the next fifteen are going to be even better. We're fired up! We've already got loads of new Basecamp stuff cooking.
Please visit our brand new site at basecamp.com and have a look around. If you're not a Basecamp customer yet, give us a try. We'd love to have you. If you already are, we thank you for your business.
Standing by to serve you for decades to come.
Thank you from all of us at Basecamp.

Questions & answers.
Q: If you're going all in on Basecamp, what happens to Highrise and Campfire?
As of August 19, 2014, we've spun Highrise off into its own company with its own dedicated team. You can read all about the spin-off and what's in store now that Highrise lives on! As Highrise users ourselves, we're eager to see it continue to improve under new leadership. In fact, it's already received some great updates and improvements with plenty more to come. Follow along on the blog or follow @highrise on Twitter. Viva Highrise!
So what about Campfire? We have different plans for Campfire which we'll reveal in time. Existing Campfire customers can continue to use Campfire as they always have. No changes there. We're just not accepting new Campfire customers anymore.
Q: What about Basecamp Classic?
We are fully committed to running Basecamp Classic forever. As long as we're around, Basecamp Classic will be around. A large chunk of our customer base loves Classic and we'll make sure they'll always have their Classic. The same rigorous uptime standards of Basecamp also apply to Basecamp Classic.
Background: Basecamp Classic was the original version of Basecamp we launched in 2004. Then in 2012 we released the all new version of Basecamp. Customers had the choice to stay on the old version, transition to the new version, or use both.
Q: What about other stuff like your Signal vs. Noise Blog, your books, etc?
We will continue publishing to Signal vs. Noise, writing books, and sharing as we always have. We will also be launching another online publication this year called THE DISTANCE. More details on this later.
Q: Will you be downsizing your company as part of downsizing your product lines?
No — our entire team stays intact. There's more than enough work to go around just on Basecamp alone. In fact, we're probably short a few designers now that we're fully committing to supporting Basecamp on multiple platforms. Plus, we're working on a variety of other tools and ideas that'll expand Basecamp in all new ways. We've also begun R&Ding entirely new, future versions of Basecamp, so there's a lot of really interesting work ahead for us. We'll be posting a few open positions in the coming months.
Q: This is a really unusual strategy. Can I talk to you about it?
From the very beginning we've done things differently. From switching from being a client services company to a product company, from being one of the early pioneers of the Software as a Service model, to open-sourcing our Ruby on Rails infrastructure, to signing up thousands of customers without a single salesperson, to being bootstrapped and funded by customer revenues, to being based in Chicago instead of the valley, to having a remote workforce spread out across nearly 30 cities across the world, to eschewing over 100 VC and private equity investment offers over the years (note: we did sell a small piece of the company to Jeff Bezos in 2006), to keeping our company as small as possible when "go big or go home" is all the rage, to writing a New York Times Bestselling business book (REWORK, 2010), etc. We're used to these unusual moves.

Remember this salsa verde? Don't worry, I'm not about to drag it out of archives and repeat it all over here. Well, not totally anyhow. I do believe though that it is worth the second mention. I've found it can brighten up many a plain dish, do wonders in a tuna sandwich, and has become my go-to condiment for salmon.
I love salmon and its distinct flavour, rich meat, and cheerful color. C enjoys it too, although not as much as I do…and he is not exactly a fan of it baked with dill and mayonnaise as I am. He isn't too keen on creamy sauces either…another thing I like with salmon. This bright, tangy, and extremely flavourful salsa verde was just the ticket then. Its sharp, herbaceous personality keeps the salmon's strong flavour and fatty-ness in line beautifully. I imagine it will go well with many other kinds of fish too. You can find the recipe for the salsa verde here.
But this post is not exactly about the salsa verde, though in and of itself it is quite wonderful. This post is about the leftovers (if any) you might have after a meal of salmon with salsa verde. As I've mentioned a couple of times before, I am doing what I can to avoid food waste. That includes making short work of leftovers and giving them a new lease on life.
Salmon and Salsa Verde Pasta
- 150 grams cooked pasta noodles (or your typical one serving measure, uncooked)
- 100 grams cooked salmon, flaked (or equivalent uncooked, )
- 2-3 tablespoons salsa verde
– Heat pasta and salmon if using leftovers. Alternately, if not using leftovers, cook noodles as per package directions, and cook salmon by either by pan-frying, roasting, or steaming (rub with a little olive oil and sprinkle with salt and pepper first) then flake.
– While salmon and pasta are hot, toss with salsa verde. Taste and see if you need to add more salsa verde. I've just given an approximate here but amounts will vary depending on the salsa verde you are using.
– Top with grated parmesan if desired. Serves one.
You will have to judge just how much salsa verde you want in your pasta so please use your taste as a guide and put more or less as you see fit. When we have salmon with salsa verde for dinner, and it is not totally devoured, this makes an appearance for my lunch the next day. It's a light pasta dish that doesn't scrimp on taste, is easy to throw together (since the salmon and salsa verde are already prepared), and makes use of leftovers! Good taste, no waste 😉

Do you check their blogs? Do you 'like' them on Facebook? Do you get their newsletters? I'm curious because I'm finding different designers do different things and it's really quite a pain! I follow some on FB, I get some newsletters, I subscribe to some blogs... but it gets overwhelming. How do you ladies do it?
You are hereForums › Digital Scrapbooking › Digital Scrapbooking Discussion › How do you keep up with your favorite designers?
How do you keep up with your favorite designers?
Honestly, I don't really. I'm kinda flighty when it comes to stuff like that. Like you said, its a bit overwhelming so I just sort of trip along with what I see on the internet in the forums I visit. Every once in a while, I'll do a "digital scrapbooking kit" search just to see if there are any new designers popping up. Mind you, I bypass about the first 10 pages that come up because those are always from the big/well established digi scrapbooking sites.
LOL that's probably a good way to handle it!
I subscribe to newsletters of my favorite designers/companies and follow quite a few on Facebook. Though I must admit that Facebook isn't at all reliable. If it's not on the first page or so of my feed, I probably miss what's been posted. I just don't have the time to dedicate to reading all of the updates. So far I've been able to keep up with the newsletters...but again, I only subscribe to my favorites.
I had a heart attack recently when Google announced they were shutting down Reader, which is how I keep track of what's happening.
OMG, Google is shooting down reader? Well, I need to find other RSS reader for the third time in a couple of years...
What I do is add the blogs that interest me on the RSS program I think suits best on that time: I started with FeedDemon, that got discontiued. I tried to do it on Mozilla Thunderbird, which worked for a while but it was slowing my pc so I gave up. I´m using the google reader now, although I have to admit I havent opened it on the last weeks, because I´m spending way too much time on this forum.
I don´t think Facebook is a good source of information for me, because I loose too many posts.
Marisa, that's kind of why I was asking! I found another reader to use but I just don't like it as much.
Yeah, Facebook eats posts or something... what a pain. I guess I'll just have to get used to the other readers! blah!
I get newsletters (many designers include freebies) and I have been using Google Reader which has been wonderful. Since the news of them shutting down I have read several things of alternate places. I have finally decided on Feedly which appears to be close to Google Reader. The one who recommended it (I don't remember which designer it was) did say there is a little bit of a learning curve but gets easier.
Good question. I've been wondering the same thing. I never used Google reader. I usually subscribe to e-mail updates and/or newsletters which are sent to a scrapbooking only email account. I don't like following on facebook, but I do follow my favorites on Pinterest. It will be interesting to see what people do.
I use the RSS feed, this way, I can see when a blog has been updated without having to visit it to find out. I also get newsletters.
Newsletters and Facebook primarily. I do use Google Reader but I didn't organize it well so it is difficult for me plus its not even all scrapbooking stuff- I have varied interests.
Here's the thing about Facebook. The more a particular poster gets shared and liked, the more often their posts will appear on Facebook. I am guessing based on my own experience that the more often you will see similar posts as what you share too.
SO the moral to the story is: go to my wall and start sharing!! LOL!
I also think I'm switching to Feedly. I used it for a while before, then switched back to Google Reader, and now I guess I'll have to switch back. Feedly has a cleaner designer than Reader, which is nice, but sometimes it had problems displaying content, which is why I switched back to Reader. I'm hoping they've maybe fixed that at this point, I haven't had any trouble yet, but I haven't done a lot of reading yet....With Google Reader shutting down, they'll probably get a large influx of people which should hopefully help them make improvements.
I tried another one first but then read about Feedly. The other thing that was great is that Feedly pulled all the sites I had over from Reader (completely) which the other one did not. Also, any updates you do in Feedly will update Reader also, so if you start now you have the advantage of switching without extra work of reading/updating Reader. You can tailor it to your desires by using preferences.
Yeah... so I joined her website. I didn't know she was my favorite until I got here but everything seems to pail in comparison.
A lot of designers have a 'subscribe to my blog by email' button on their website. Every time they update their blog you will get it in your mail. In my mail program I have set up a scrapbook folder with folders of designers and stores that I follow, and I have set up filter rules. When mail comes in it gets filtered in to the appropriate folders and when I have the time I go through them. Most stores and designer update on Thursday so I will have some things to read over the weekend.
It's also handy to keep some blog pages that have tutorials on them, I mark them with a blue flag so I know not to delete because it has a tutorial. Lots of news letters and blog updates have either a freebie related to the latest kit of a discount code.
If you read your mail online that will be harder to do but I just use my mail software.
I only read blogs on my iPad with an app called mr.Reader. mr.Reader uses Google rss feed of course as all other readers do. The developer assured us not to panic he will use another feeder source and make the transition painless and easy.
I use to read Feedly but I hated the 'magazine' design and that they decided what was interesting to me and what to read next. I like the old style rss news readers where I can go from one blog to the next.
Thanks for the tips on Feedly, ladies... I am getting such good information off of this site! So glad I found it.
I subscribe to my favorite blogs by post, and the rest by newsletter. Everyone else is Facebook. Not necessarily so I can see their posts, but because most force you to like them to get cute freebies.
If I find myself deleting the newsletter more than 3 times without wanting to read it, I unsubscribe from that designer. Actually, I do the same for all companies.
@Christine: In Feedly you can go from one article to the next. I find it to be more or less the same as Google Reader, except they have some more interesting ways to view what you read (but still the regular standby option of post after post too).
Until now I have used the "subscribe to my blog by email" on the pages I like as I am not using Facebook. The problem is that I am discovering new interesting sites nearly every day and my inbox gets a little crowed some days lol.
It is very interesting for me to read about the different possibilities to stay updated. I will probably have a look at Feedly to see if I like it.
Christine: Thank you so much for the tips about the organization of e-mails. I thought I was quite organized (as half Swiss... lol)but the idea with the filter rules hadn't ocurred to me yet . And I particularly like the "blue flag idea".
This site is such an amazing source of information. Thank you ladies for sharing your knowledge and experience.
I wrote an article the other day on how I keep everything organized. Basically I:
-Have a separate account for emails
-Use Thunderbird for RSS Feeds
-Created an "Interest List" on FB so all of my digiscrap sites I like all appear under one news feed
More details on the method to my madness can be found in my article I wrote here:
To people that are using feedly: Is it really good? Did you get used to it? Isn´t it suffering with traffic problems due to too much users?
I really need to find a solution for my RSS still this week.
@Lorien I have been using Feedly and for the most part it is really similar to Reader. I have one big problem with it though....when I try to add a new blog I have tried it based on the way they say to do it but I have not been able to get it to work. So I have ended up adding it to Reader since it is still available and Feedly is automatically updated and updates Reader when I read the posts in Feedly. I tried to look for help with Feedly but cannot find a place to get questions answered. I would like to find a solution because that is the only one I have but it could be a "deal breaker." Specifically, when I click the button to add it opens a place to put the url and a list of things "they" think I am interested in. So I then add the url and cannot find an "add" button. I tried to hit enter but that does nothing-and I cannot figure out how to take all the others that I am not interested in off the list. Kind of frustrating.
If anyone else can figure this out I would be much beholding!
I tried Feedly and I just didn't like it. I've resorted to getting my RSS stuff in Thunderbird, which is actually working quite nicely for now since I have my email and feeds all in one place.
@Marisa Woo hoo, thank you so very much. When I looked at my Feedly page it was different than your...mine showed "+ Add website" so I had to figure out why......
For all, found my problem....I am on Firefox and I had to load to Firefox - I updated my software and a button showed up to add it to Firefox...guess it was an add on or something. Now I can put the url and press enter. And now my page shows "+ Add Content." All is well now.
If you are on Firefox ensure you load the add on.

Rihanna Pictures as Esquire's Sexiest Woman Alive
Rihanna Wins Esquire's Sexiest Woman Alive and Admits to Liking Chris Brown's Music
Rihanna is Esquire's Sexiest Woman Alive for 2011! The distinction comes during a busy year for Rihanna that's been full of touring and launching new music. She spoke with a writer from the magazine about touring, eating, and her personal life, even touching on her feelings for her ex, Chris Brown. Rihanna's dating Dudley O'Shaughnessy now, according to reports, but this interview took place before they met. Rihanna said:
- On sleeping in her bus while on tour: "I hate going to hotels when I'm on tour. I like to stay on the bus. I can sleep, I can shower, I can just pull up right to the venue everyday. I work out. I have a trainer. So, she trains me wherever, whenever. Touring messes with my metabolism, so I have to get tight."
- On not liking new foods: "I'm very stubborn when it comes to food. I don't like to try new things. When I came to America, there were so many different cultures and tastes. I haven't acquired a taste for a lot of things. Like, calamari? Jay-Z had to make me eat it. We have this thing called Taste Test Tuesdays or New Flavor Fridays or Substitute Saturdays."
- On wishing Chris Brown well: "It's incredible to see how he pulled out of it the way he did. Even when the world seemed like it was against him, you know? I really like the music he's putting out. I'm a fan of his stuff. I've always been a fan. Obviously, I had some resentment toward him for a while, for obvious reasons. But I've put that behind me. It was taking up too much of my time. It was too much anger. I'm really excited to see the breakthrough he's had in his career. I would never wish anything horrible for him. Never. I never have."

This is the first book to offer Buddhist meditators a comprehensive and sympathetic examination of the differences between Asian and Western cultural and spiritual values. Harvey B. Aronson presents a constructive and practical assessment of common conflicts experienced by Westerners who look to Eastern spiritual traditions for guidance and support—and find themselves confused or disappointed. Issues addressed include:
- Our cultural belief that anger should not be suppressed versus the Buddhist teaching to counter anger and hatred
- Our psychotherapists' advice that attachment is the basis for healthy personal development and supportive relationships versus the Buddhist condemnation of attachments as the source of suffering
- Our culture's emphasis on individuality versus the Asian emphasis on interdependence and fulfillment of duties, and the Buddhist teachings on no-self, or egolessness
"An amazingly helpful book . . . Aronson realizes the value of psychotherapy, Theravada, and Tibetan Buddhism, and weaves them together so that, even outside their respective cultural contexts, their advantages are experienced and their pitfalls avoided." —Jeffrey Hopkins, Ph.D., author of Maps of the Profound and Cultivating Compassion
"As a psychotherapist and Buddhist scholar and teacher, Harvey B. Aronson has a lot of wisdom to share that will help Western Dharma practitioners to establish a healthy, clear foundation for achieving liberation. Aronson raises important questions and provides helpful insights about complications that can occur when Eastern and Western cultures come together. I have been waiting a long time for this book." —Geshe Rinpoche, author of Tibetan Yogas of Dream and Sleep

The Black Box Theatre at 95 Empire St. has been the site of many interesting and innovative productions over the years.
Leigh Hendrix, a Providence theatre and performance artist, and Melissa Bowler, a stand-up comedian and actor, have joined together to write and perform an hour-long, one-act play that is innovative, original and downright funny.
Leigh and Melissa work side by side in the accounting department but have never communicated until one day when they are trying to avoid a company "sharing circle." They talk about their avocations as actors, exaggerating a bit. Neither has been able to land a gig.
They decide to create their own vehicle for success by writing and then producing their two-woman version of "Hamlet," which they title "Hamlette." Their imaginations run rampant with hilarious results.
When one of them is promoted, their relationship changes drastically, leading to subtle put-downs and out and out resentments. The fast-paced play reaches an abrupt conclusion and giving them something to think about. It is a clever idea that needs some minor tweaking and could even be developed into a longer play.
For $10 and an hour of your time, it is worth catching this weekend, Sept. 27-30 at 8 p.m. at 94 Empire St. in Providence.

How Formula One 2014 will look and sound different
Formula One will look and sound different when the season starts in Melbourne on March 16, with new regulations and the introduction of a turbocharged V6 engine with energy recovery systems.other Updated: Mar 07, 2014 11:17 IST
Formula One will look and sound different when the season starts in Melbourne on March 16, with new regulations and the introduction of a turbocharged V6 engine with energy recovery systems.
The following looks at the main changes for 2014, with the sport going through its most significant technical overhaul in at least two decades.
Power unit
Put simply, what used to be called an engine has become something a lot more complicated.
The old 2.4 litre V8 engines, with kinetic energy recovery systems (KERS), that revved at up to 18,000rpm have been consigned to history and replaced by a power unit - a 1.6 litre turbocharged engine limited to 15,000rpm with two energy recovery systems (ERS).
The sport last saw turbo engines in 1988.
Teams are allowed five power units - each made up of six elements - per driver per season, compared to an allocation of eight engines last year.
A driver will have to start from the pitlane if he uses more than five entire units while each additional element above the allocation will incur a 10 place grid penalty.
The old-style KERS delivered a boost of around 80bhp for six seconds a lap at the push of a button.
The new ERS - two electrical motor generator units that harvest kinetic and heat energy from the brakes and single exhaust - does not require the driver to push anything and delivers an extra 160bhp for up to 33.33 seconds a lap.
Whereas a KERS failure during a race would have put a driver at a manageable disadvantage, an ERS failure will have a far more dramatic impact.
As a result of ERS, cars will also produce more torque at lower revs than in the past which puts more stress on the rear tyres and calls for more sensitive throttle control.
Cars now have one centrally-positioned exhaust compared to the previous twin outlets.
This change means the end of 'blown diffusers', where hot exhaust gases were directed over the rear diffuser to generate more downforce. Some teams, such as champions Red Bull who used the technology to good effect, have been more hit than others.
Fuel economy
The new units will use some 35 percent less fuel than the previous engines, as part of a 'green revolution' in the sport. Each car has an allocation of 100kg of fuel to complete the race without refuelling, compared with around 150-160kg last year.
There is a also a fuel flow limiter.
Fuel saving will become a feature of races, with the electrical power generated by ERS coming into play. Driving styles and tactics will have to adapt to the level of fuel consumption.
McLaren expect races to boil down initially into three key segments: "An opening charge to establish position; a consolidatory middle-stint as engines, fuel levels and temperatures are managed; and a final burst as drivers with the machinery and confidence to push, press on to the finish."
The rules now specify eight-speed fixed-ratio gearboxes, one more speed than 2013. In the past teams could pick and choose from 30 gear ratios but now they must use the same ones all season, with one change allowed. Any further changes incur penalties.
Each gearbox must now last six consecutive races instead of five previously.
Front wings have become 150mm narrower, a move aimed at reducing the number of rear punctures caused by cars clipping those in front, and there is no longer a lower beam wing at the rear while the upper part is smaller.
The height of the chassis and nose (415mm lower) has been reduced for safety reasons, chiefly to prevent cars being launched in the air in the event of a front to rear collision and to reduce the risk to drivers from side impacts.
This has led to a variety of highly distinctive noses on the 2014 cars, ranging from the two-pronged Lotus to 'anteater' style fronts on others.
Minimum car weights have increased from 642kg to 691kg to compensate for the heavier power units. Taller and heavier drivers, such as Force India's Nico Hulkenberg, say the increase is not enough and they are at a disadvantage compared to much smaller rivals such as Williams' Felipe Massa.
With every extra kilo impacting on performance, expect some drivers to look much leaner than in the past.
The new power units make a different, softer noise to the screaming V8s, which were introduced in 2006, just as the V8s were distinct to the previous V10s and V12s.
While the engines rev at 15,000rpm, the turbo will make its own distinct noise as it spins at 125,000rpm.
"The car will still accelerate and decelerate rapidly, with instant gearshifts. The engines remain high revving, ultra high output competition engines. Fundamentally the engine noise will still be loud," says Renault's Rob White.
"It will wake you from sleep, and circuit neighbours will still complain.
"The sound of the new generation power units is just different. It's like asking whether you like Motorhead or AC/DC. Ultimately it is a matter of personal taste. Both in concert are still pretty loud."
Double points
The top 10 finishers in the final race of the season in Abu Dhabi will score double, with the winner taking 50 points instead of the usual 25. This controversial move is aimed at ensuring the title battle stays open as long as possible.
Critics have accused it of being an artificial and unncessary gimmick.
Penalty points/driver numbers
Any driver collecting 12 penalty points in a calendar year faces an automatic one race suspension.
Drivers have also been allowed to choose their racing numbers, which they will keep for their entire careers in Formula One. Previously their numbers changed from year to year according to the constructors' championship standings.

Pope Francis's papacy has drawn tremendous global attention and interest. His historic interview in America Magazine, daily tweets, and YouTube videos have captured the hearts and imaginations of millions.

Pope Francis' reflection on Lent:
"There are Christians whose lives seem like Lent without Easter. I realize of course that joy is not expressed the same way at all times in life, especially at moments of great difficulty. Joy adapts and changes, but it always endures, even as a flicker of light born of our personal certainty that, when everything is said and done, we are infinitely loved."

Bureau County Circuit Clerk
PRINCETON — The race for Bureau County Circuit Clerk may appear to be over ... but not quite yet.
In Tuesday's election, Mary Romanelli Dremann beat challenger Dawn Reglin by only 97 votes, for a 50.3 percent to 49.7 percent margin. However, there are still 124 absentee ballots out there, which could make a difference in the outcome of the race, Bureau County Clerk Kami Hieronymus said Wednesday morning.
To be counted, the absentee ballots must have been postmarked by Nov. 5 and received in her office by Nov. 20.
Though Dremann is the unofficial winner, the official final count won't take place until the Nov. 20 deadline is reached and ballots are counted, Hieronymus said, adding there are a lot of variables to take into account with the final tally, including how many of the 124 absentee ballots are returned, having the proper postmark and by the Nov. 20 deadline, and just how many of those ballots are cast for either candidate.
On Wednesday, Dremann said she's confident her victory will prevail since the number of absentee ballots out there isn't that huge.
Dremann thanked all the voters and her family and supporters, the door-knockers and parade walkers, for their support during the campaign. She also thanked Reglin for running a clean campaign.
"I am disappointed by the outcome of the election," Reglin said. "It was a very close race. I wish Mary well. I would like to thank everyone that has supported me and offered guidance. I couldn't have done it without all the support."
Dremann is a Republican from Princeton, Reglin is a Democrat from Manlius.
Bureau County Coroner
PRINCETON — Longtime Bureau County Coroner Janice Wamhoff has won her first election as county coroner.
In recent years, the county coroner position has been appointed by the Bureau County Board, but a referendum placed before voters by the county board in 2010 determined the coroner position would now be an elected one.
Wamhoff, a Democrat from Princeton, beat out challenger Randy Grant, a Republican from Wyanet, with 11,150 votes for Wamhoff and 5,073 votes for Grant.
On Wednesday, Wamhoff thanked the voters and her supporters in helping her win the coroner race.
"It is not something I ever could have done by myself; it took a whole community to help me do this," Wamhoff said. "I am very pleased that I had as many people that supported me and wanted me back as their coroner. I take a lot of pride in that fact."
Having never gone through an election before, Wamhoff said she was all for electing the coroner at the beginning, but then about mid-year she began questioning why she wanted to do this.
"But I knew it was best for the voters. They needed to be able to elect who they want for their coroner," Wamhoff said.
On Wednesday, Grant said he's thankful for all the people who voted for him and even for those who voted against him. The important thing is for the people to vote, he said.
"The people of Bureau County have spoken and elected their first coroner," Grant said.
Looking ahead to another four years, Grant said it's too soon to decide whether he will run again for the office of coroner, but he has gotten his name out there before the public.
Wamhoff has served as county coroner since 1988.
Bureau County State's Attorney
Bureau County State's Attorney Patrick Herrmann has been re-elected to his office after Tuesday's victory over challenger Desiree Bromme Sierens.
Herrmann, a Democrat from Spring Valley, received 9,361 votes, to Sierens' 6,883 votes. Sierens, a Republican, is originally from Sheffield but lives now in Marengo.
On Wednesday, Herrmann said his last contested race for state's attorney was 12 years ago, and his numbers are up from that year.
"I'm encouraged by that," Herrmann said. "Based on those numbers, I could be here for a long time."
In looking at Tuesday's victory, Herrmann thanked his staff and the public for their support. It has been an honor to serve the public, and he looks forward to continuing his service, he said.
Herrmann has been state's attorney since 1998.
On Wednesday, Sierens also thanked her supporters, saying she was pleased with the number of people who did vote for her on Tuesday.
Tiskilwa voters have passed a referendum to go forward with electric aggregation for their village on a 277 yes to 91 no vote.
Wyanet voters approved a similar referendum to go forward with electric aggregation, on a 267 yes to 130 no vote.
Bureau County voters also voted on a state amendment which would require a three-fifths vote of each chamber of the General Assembly or the governing body of a unit local government, school district or pension or retirement system, in order to increase a benefit under any public pension or retirement system. On the county-level, the amendment passed on a 8,041 yes to 6,654 no vote. However, with about 92 percent of the statewide vote reported by press time on Wednesday morning, the proposed amendment has failed.

The average user may be frightened at the thought of having to type in commands. Why wouldn't he be able to point and click his way through the freedom provided by Gentoo (and Linux in general)? Well, *big smile*, of course you are able to do this :-) Linux offers a wide variety of flashy user interfaces and environments which you can install on top of your existing installation.
This is one of the biggest surprises new users come across: a graphical user
interface is nothing more than an application which runs on your system. It is
As standards are important, a standard for drawing and moving windows on a

The application that provides Linux users with the ability to run graphical user interfaces and that uses the X11 standard is Xorg-X11, a fork of the XFree86 project. XFree86 has decided to use a license that might not be compatible with the GPL license; the use of Xorg is therefore recommended. The official Portage tree does not provide an XFree86 package anymore.
Xorg provides an interface between your hardware and the graphical software you want to run. Besides that, Xorg is also fully network-aware, meaning you are able to run an application on one system while viewing it on a different one.
Enough chitchat, let's get to business shall we? To install Xorg, you just
need to run
Before installing Xorg you have to configure two important variables in the

After setting all the necessary variables you can install the Xorg package.

When the installation is finished, you might need to re-initialise some
environment variables before you continue. Just run

Xorg itself is able to guess most parameters for you. In most cases, you will only have to change some lines to get the resolution you want up and running. If you are interested in more in-depth tweaking, be sure to check the resources at the end of this chapter. But first, let us generate a (hopefully working) Xorg configuration file.
# Xorg -configure
Be sure to read the last lines printed on your screen when Xorg has finished
probing your hardware. If it tells you it failed at some point, you're forced to
manually write an
# X -config /root/xorg.conf.new
If all goes well, you should see a simple black and white pattern. Verify if your mouse works correctly and if the resolution is good. You might not be able to deduce the exact resolution, but you should be able to see if it's too low. You can exit any time by pressing Ctrl-Alt-Backspace.
Xorg provides a tool called

Recorded mostly at his own Gargamel Music studio in Kingston, the album boasts some of the most powerful songs written by Banton since his professional entry into the music business over twenty years ago.
Released in September to critical acclaim, Before The Dawn debuted at #2 on Billboard's Reggae Albums chart and #26 on the mag's Heatseekers chart. Currently the album is perched at #1 on both the South Florida and the New York Top 20 Reggae Albums charts, #1 on Richie B's Jamaica Music Countdown and #4 on CMJ's World Music chart. Highlights include "Do Good,""In The Air," "Struggle Together" and the especially potent "Battered & Bruised." The album's unofficial anthem, "Innocent" strikes a highly personal chord that resonates deeply considering the artist's ensuing legal battle.
Banton was previously acknowledged by the Recording Academy for his albums Rasta Got Soul (2009), Too Bad(2007), Friends for Life (2004) and Inna Heights (1999).
