Gold Accessories are Back in Fashion, so why not gold bra straps?
Oval gold link bra straps by Brapples
Have you noticed lately the huge come back gold accessories are making this year? They are everywhere now in stores, taking over the decades of
silver only mentality
when it comes to accessorizing. I used to look down at my gold wedding band and engagement ring and think
....well you can tell which decade I got married in
. I suppose if you wait a bit everything comes back in vogue. Now if you were like many of my friends who sold all their gold in one of those "bring your gold and get money for it" parties that have been the rage for several years now, then I guess you start all over. Might I suggest some gold
detachable bra straps
shown here. Forget the necklace when wearing these. You will definitely get noticed. But when you do want that touch of gold around your neck, the below sections are two of my favorite that I have worn all summer. Great length for layering and have adjustable chains in the back. So if you are like me and you hung on to your gold, then it is time to put it back on. If not,
Brapples unique jewelry and bra straps
has you covered.

Patio Designed to Live In
My husband and I live in a fairly tiny 110 year old home. We use every inch of our space, and each room is lived in. There is no
off limits...this is only for guest
rooms in our home. I have busted into walls to add shelving nooks, and walled off space from bedrooms to make one more closet. The thing about old homes is they definitely give off a vibe of history when you walk in; in fact mine was once an antique store called the Iron Horse Antiques. But they do not come with an abundance of closets or oversize bathrooms. So we live with a small carbon footprint which seems to be in vogue now. We are lucky that collectively my husband and I are experienced plumbers, wood workers, dry-wallers, floor layers, landscapers, seamstress, interior decorator and electrician. We don't need to call out for help very much which is a great thing when you purchase an old home. So recently we put more emphasis on our backyard so that it could be an extension of our home. We love it, and the whole space is under a canopy of a gigantic magnolia tree that we light at night.
I built this table out of cedar wood. The legs I believe were ordered off ebay. The chandelier is a massive size candle holder found at TJ Max that I stuffed with brown roped Christmas lights, hung with a chain and connected to the round tea lights within the trees. To the right I made a window box and simple shutters, all made from cedar. I lined the wood window box with 1/4 inch concrete board to make it even more water proof. The hardware is just accessory items from Hobby Lobby made to look like shutter dogs and door pulls. The privacy screen (seen closer below) is actually three iron garden trellis from Hobby Lobby ( I use to use two of them for trade shows, and I was lucky enough to find one more),. We added the old shutters in between to hide the metal structure my husband rigged up to hold them in place. And those are just candle holders that we screwed into the shutters. This whole structure is actually lifted from the ground about a foot to maximize height and to protect it from the elements of nature.
This is a close up of a bamboo love seat I found at a consignment shop for $75. I did however have to touch up the stain and reupholster the bottom cushions with left over fabric. The top cushions were beyond help so I purchased three outdoor pillows and made the two graphic pillows to coordinated the look with the other chairs. I save furniture like my sister-in-law saves pets. She probably gets more saintly points, but at least I am saving the planet and the landfill. That is what I tell my husband anyway.
Below is a close up of the window box. The project requires skill with a miter box and table saw. And a nail gun powered by an air compressor for me is a must.
Here is an older picture that shows the maple tree that hangs over the patio lit up by bulb lights from Target. To the left is our garage which we recently had built with a room above for our two boys to have their own space. As they get older they seem to accumulate more smells and attitude, so a detached space from the house for them is a win-win for everyone.

My daughter's bra straps keep showing
I hear this comment all the time from moms about their daughter's bra straps showing. Then they look down at the many
decorative bra straps
on display, and found on
, and at first think they are looking at beautiful beaded necklaces, or in the case of my
braided bra straps
, awesome headbands. When I tell them they are decorative bra straps, I always get the same look...that,
are your serious look?
. After the concept sinks in (usually about 2 seconds) they all say "wow, that is the coolest thing ever", followed by, "why didn't I think of that". Brapples decorative bra straps are a great solution to the dilemma of two generations of women. The 30 to 40 year old generation who are trying hard to conceal or blend their bra straps with their tops, to those teens and 20 year olds who don't mind if they show their ugly tan, black, or contrasting bra strap as some sort of ill advised fashion statement. I personally always tried very hard to conceal my bra straps, and would buy many different color bras and shove them in a drawer hoping I could find the right color later. And there was nothing more dreadful than wearing that strapless bra when no other bra would work. Brapples decorative bra straps was an answer to my own issues with ugly bra straps showing, and from its ever growing popularity with customers, I'd say women of all ages felt the same.
braided straps
come in wide variety of color combinations. This picture shows the orange/white/blue style. Braided bra straps are made of comfortable stretchy material with an additional length adjustment in the back. These are great for sports activity because they stay on your shoulders even better than normal bra straps. I wear them with tank tops and those colorful strappy style dresses and tops. This style is a great solution for moms who are tired of seeing their daughters bra straps and at just $8 each they are very affordable. Buy several colors and make it fun, like the way they decide to leave the house with two different color socks on their feet. I have even seen some girls hook the two ends together and wear them as a headband.
For woman in their late 20's, 30's to 50's, the beaded and rhinestone bra straps are perfect for accessorizing our outfits. We can buy those off the shoulder tops that are so popular now because there is cute
shoulder jewelry
available now to hold things in place. It really has become my favorite way to accessorize. They are functional and stylish, and with all my beaded and rhinestone bra straps, along with the braided and
solid color bra straps
I wear, I have been able to edit my bra drawer down to just comfortable nude color convertible bras. Before I had every ill-fitted color you can imagine. Never to be found again once stuffed in my drawer. The straps can be hung like necklaces, or just place them all in a easy to store decorative box on your dresser. Brapples has other unique accessories such as fabric belts, and faux fur scarf/hats that can be found in stores across the country. But even easier, find their store on-line at Brapples.com

Small Bathroom Remodel for less than $2000
This small bathroom picture had been filed away for two years in a folder as the exact look I wanted for our home's tiny upstairs bathroom. When I saw it, I knew when the day came when my husband was mentally ready for another home project and was fed up with the ever-clogging pipes in our 100+ year home, that I would pull out my dog-eared magazine clipping and say yet again,"well, I was thinking...". The designer who did this bathroom, Mrs. Phoebe Howard, as she is affectionately known in the designer world has made quite a name for herself through magazines such as Coastal Living and has a store front in my home town of Jacksonville Beach, FL. Well Mrs. Howard, thank you for planting the inspiration seed in my brain and I would like to show you my version (for less than $2000) on your great design.
So here is my reality. Yes it is a tiny bathroom, but it lives large and has a decent size closet that helps. We had to take all the drywall down and remove the entire sub floor to access all the pipes. We jackhammered out 6 inches of poured concrete from the floor, you read that right. Previous owners had leveled the floor with concrete right over the old pipes. I took advantage of attic space above and just like the picture, arched the ceiling in my bathroom by using plywood forms that attached to the top of the old ceiling. My talented drywaller then scored the green board and patiently bent into place, using 5 coats of durabond for a smooth and perfect look. I need a better picture probably. It turned out so pretty I have been afraid to put the accent molding like the inspiration picture. Still looking for a pendant light but it is wired for it. I found the basket weave tile on-line for $13 a square foot. For the record, I called Mrs. Howard about the inspiration floors and was quoted $75 a square foot. I used my old vanity which I had made myself previously out of plywood, but added more stock molding to it so that it would accommodate a new marble top I found on craigslist for $150. Bought a new undermount sink for $80, and sink fixtures for $89 (big time sale). My tip is find the product you love on-line, copy and paste it to google search and start your price comparisons. You can't see it in the original picture, but I will add a close up the ceiling in the shower where I took glass beads (found at hobby stores) and used silicone glue to attach them randomly on the overhead tile. The art work is just two shadow boxes from Hobby Lobby that I took the back off and cut two pieces of clear plastic sheets (also found at Hobby Lobby) to fit inside. The coral was found for $4 each at Ace Hardware in Jacksonville Beach, FL. I painted each one a greyish blue. Walls were painted with Benjamim Moore, Revere Pewter (Aura, Bathroom and Spa) The Aura was a splurge upgrade but with all the steam from a bathroom I considered it a wise investment. Bought new fan vent but threw away the vent cover and made my own out of decorative metal work from Home Depot. Much nicer look. Here are some close ups and some of those ideas, and feel free to comment me and/or let me know if you want more details or links from any of my purchases.
Vent cover is actually a metal screen from home depot. As luck would have it, the protective paint coating on the screen was identical to the paint color I chose. I cut it with metal cutters and framed it with simple molding that I painted with the wall color.
Carrara Marble tile floor with a basket weave pattern. Chose polished, not honed. This has a pretty taupe-grey square mixed with the carrara marble. Used white (not too white) grout. But make sure to mix the grout with a product called "milk" instead of water. It will add the needed protection you need from mildew and mold. Do that in the shower as well. You can not find this product in Home Depot. Try a tile store. Then use an impregnator sealer after it cures such as one made by Dupont that can be used on marble floors. Oh, and can you tell what the legs of the vanity are? Yep, those are post finials that are used mainly for decking (found at home depot). For this project I actually taught myself how to use a paint spray gun. It makes a huge difference on the final look. Husband set up a room of clear plastic sheeting for me on all sides...the prepping takes the longest. Spraying is actually quick. You want to do multiple light coats with the primer and then with the final paint. Lightly sanding when needed.
This was my grandmother's mirror that I already had in the bathroom. Problem was that it was gold. It had a beautiful patina and could be 150 years old. I love it, but gold wasn't working and I really wanted to keep it in the mix. So I purchased some silver leaf rub on paint called Rub n' buff (1/2 FL. oz, tiny tube and goes a long way)at Hobby Lobby and literally used my finger and an old sock to rub it on. I tried my best to keep some of the aged patina. I am just happy that it worked out and didn't totally destroy my grandmother's old mirror.
So this is a picture of the arched ceiling in the shower. Yes, that is glass beads that you buy in a bag for like $2. I used the one that has random clear, white, and buffed beads and randomly placed them as you see in the picture. Everyone that sees it loves it. Because my ceiling arched, I was very limited on what type of tile I could use. I had actually tiled this myself over 8 years ago so all the new hip glass tile in sheets was not available to market yet. This is just floor tile from Home Depot that I modified to look different. I have to say, I still love it. This is so easy to do, and not a single bead has ever fallen off.
This is the marble top I found on craigslist for $150. This is one those purchases you make before ever doing the project just praying that what you think will work, will. Otherwise this would have been passed on to another craigslister. It originally was a piece from Restoration Hardware for $650. So I did score a great deal. I was worried though I wouldn't find a sink to fit. But I believe that if you find something that is a little bigger than the opening it actually looks better. Having more of the counter top overlapping your undermounted sink hides the silicone caulk that is sometimes used to mount the sink. Mine was actually mounted by routering the top of the vanity so that it fit snuggly right on top. All the credit for that rigging job goes to Daniel, my drywaller who is a great "out of box" thinker.
Hopefully this picture shows the extra stock molding detail added to the base of the vanity. The marble top was bigger than the original top that was on here (a yucky goldish fake marbly thing). So I had to beef it up a little on the sides and back so that the top fit better and didn't extend out too much. This is simple to do with any cabinet piece. Think of those flat sides in kitchens. If you were planning on painting them, it would be a good time to add detail such as molding. There is a closer look at the deck finials for legs. You can highlight the picture and see the molding that was used up closer. My pictures are not very professional, and I am now noticing that there is a yellow glow from the light that is on, but hopefully you can get the idea. Mrs. Howard has a staging team that I am sure does all her pictures.
Close up of my inexpensive frames ($20 each, I think I got them half off for $10 at Hobby Lobby). Every room in my house has some form of coastal element to it, usually shells. I grew up in Atlantic Beach, FL but have lived in Chicago now for about 14 winters. Having beachy items reminds me of home and warmth, even when there might be 16 inches of snow on the ground. For this project, just remove the back and cut sheets of plastic (found at Hobby Lobby...I am starting to think they should sponsor this make over) to fit inside. Glue the coral in the center and let dry. Then glue the whole piece so that it sits in the inner rim of the shadow box. Be careful not to let the glue ooze so that it shows past the rimmed frame. Then I glued a second piece of plastic to the inside where the old back use to go. It is a shadow box, so there is space inside for the object. Just make sure your object is not too large.
Hopefully you found one or two ideas you can take away from this project. The bulk of my budget had to go to fixing the pipes underneath, so there wasn't very much for the sexy items that people actually see. I am a naturally cost-saving frugal person, so even if I had extra money to spend on this project (which for the record I don't), I still would have made the same product choices and do-it-yourself design elements. I love the final outcome, dare I say it....even better than Mrs. Howard's design.

Life, Lunch, and the Pursuit of Happiness
Recently I had lunch with a friend who was discussing with me her concerns that her daughter wasn't getting invited to certain social events, or wasn't always included within the pack of girls she considered her friends. The mom said she would express her concern over such matters to her child, but she would say "mom, I really don't care…it doesn't bother me in the least". I asked my friend, "is your concern, that it really is bothering her?" She said, "no, I really don't think it does bother her". And I could tell on some level perhaps that was what was perplexing to the mom. It is hard to know as a parent in situations like this with your child what to say, how to say it, or do you decide not to say anything at all.
Starting down the road of parenthood, there is so many unknowns and we can't wait for the next achievement. At first, we are just monitoring them to make sure they are healthy and reach all the milestones within the norm. Then they go off to school and you hope please let my child not be bullied, or worse…be the bully. You pray they are kind, and thoughtful, and secretly you hope that academics will come easy for them. I use to tell everyone that I named my children Mark and Luke so that I was assured that they would at least be able to spell their names by the time they were in Kindergarten. Little did I know that my biggest concern would be that one of them insisted on sliding into the reading area as if he was running to home plate for the winning run. Apparently, in the "teacher world" this meant he was socially immature. As I am listening to my son's teacher talk about such incidences with disapproval I am thinking to myself "it is a good thing you weren't at my home a couple years ago when this same child dropped his pants and did his (#2) business in my front yard with onlookers across the street. Or when this same child stuck a dehydrated blueberry up his nose and it took five people holding him down at the E.R. to extract it". I don't know about you, but with that kind of past social lack of judgment on my child's part, I wasn't taking her
sliding into the reading area
concerns too seriously, obviously I had bigger issues than that. But slowly, my child outgrew his fetish for putting things in his nose and ears (I still don't know what on earth possesses kids to do that) and he also learned to at least do his business in private…sadly not always in a bathroom. Even my 14 year old gets lazy about that. What's with boys…just because you can doesn't mean you should.
Yes my kids have issues, and like my friend I do worry that they will be socially accepted for who they are. But I also told her that her concern that her child feels included was something that follows us into adulthood. And that she needs to rethink how she is viewing her daughter's situation. I told her that she should be forever grateful that her daughter doesn't care that she isn't included. To me that means she is comfortable with who she is even at such a young age. And to know that now about herself is such a gift. That in life, we don't need a lot of friends, we just need the right friends for us. I also told her that "in my prayers I always ask one thing of the lord when it comes to my children…that they will always be content with who they are". Because I feel that so many children and adults make themselves unhappy by trying to be someone they are not, by living up to someone else's expectations of success, or look, dress, and act a certain way because society says that is what is cool, and will make you loved by your peers. Being in honors classes, or playing every sport…or later, having a big house, driving the right kind of car or cars, being a member of the country club, or a member of some social circle…it doesn't make the person. And it certainly doesn't make a person happy in the long term.
When it comes to happiness, "think small." A study with America's elders at Cornell University revealed that we must be aware and attentive to small pleasures in daily life, even as we may be waiting for something in our lives to change. Seniors are consciously grateful for what they have, right now, rather than pinning their happiness on future achievements or possessions. How nice it would be if we all acknowledged that concept sooner rather than later in life.
I believe what makes us all "content" as humans is an inner core belief, and just a knowing of oneself. It is definitely not the stuff we accumulate, which is all that is…stuff. Friends will come and go our entire life, many of us will feel rich and poor within our life time, we will go from relying on shelter from our parents, to squatter-like quarters in college, to ultimately for many owning your own home. The only difference you will find with people is some will take what they have for granted, other's will feel entitled to it, and lucky are those who are "content" and appreciative of who they are, what they have, the contributions they make to their fellow man, and the person they have become.
"Well," said Pooh, "what I like best," and then he had to stop and think. Because although Eating Honey was a very good thing to do, there was a moment just before you began to eat it which was better than when you were, but he didn't know what it was called. ~A.A. Milne

Thunder's Carmelo Anthony has 'so much left in the tank'
Carmelo Anthony is sticking to his guns.
The Thunder forward reiterated that he will not take on a bench role with the team next season if he opts to return to Oklahoma City.
"Yeah, I'm not sacrificing no bench role," Anthony said, via ESPN. "That's out of the question."
During his exit interview, Anthony said, "It wasn't no strategy to me being here, me being a part of the actual system and what type of player and things like that ... I don't think I can be effective as that type of player. "
Although Anthony wants to expand his role after it was diminished this past season, he isn't looking to steal the spotlight from his star teammates.
"I became who I am by playing the way that I've played and establishing a style of play and a type of play throughout my career," Anthony said. "So now it's about figuring out what is the best way to implement that game into something that we're trying to create, and it's not taking away nothing from Russell [Westbrook] or Paul or anybody else, or myself per se.
"I think we just all have to figure out how we're going to play and what's the style of play and what's most effective in the way that we're going to play. I think that's something that we have to figure out."
While he is owed $28 million on the final year of his contract, Anthony can opt out with an early termination clause and join another team or potentially just call it a career. Now that the Thunder have been eliminated in the playoffs by the Jazz, he will take the time to weigh his options before deciding his next move.
"I think for me, my focus would be on kind of figuring out what I want out of the rest of my career, what I want in my future, what am I willing to accept, if I'm willing to accept that at all," Anthony said. "I think everybody knows that I've sacrificed kind of damned near everything, family, moving here by myself, sacrificed my game for the sake of the team, and was willing to sacrifice anything and everything in order for this situation to work out.

"So it's something I really have to think about, if I really want to be this type of player, finish out my career as this type of player, knowing that I have so much left in the tank and I bring so much to the game of basketball."
Anthony, who turns 34 next month, is coming off his worst season statistically in which he averaged 16.2 points and 5.8 rebounds per game over 78 contests. Still, he has started all 1,054 games in his 15-year NBA career.

You are probably familiar with the story from Exodus about Pharaoh punishing the Jews by forcing them to make bricks without straw, a difficult if not impossible task. Sometimes I feel I get the same instructions from my clients. The phone rings or you get e-mail from a client with very exciting news that they can't wait to turn into a news announcement. And when you dig down to gather the facts, you find there is no real news and no legitimate news hook. Of course, your client is not a media expert; it's your job to educate your client about the ins and outs of reporting and what the press consider newsworthy. But sometimes it's just hard to tell your client that their news release subject stinks.
That's when the real creativity kicks in. Sometimes you have to find a way to uncover or even create the news hook, even when there doesn't seem to be one. I find these kinds of "non-news" release the absolute hardest to write, but I also understand their value. These days you often want to use a press release to tell a story designed to reach an audience other than the press. You may want to reach prospects, or customers, or employees, or the board of directors, or simply put something out on the wire to attract web traffic and pump up your keyword or SEO strategy (remember that press releases almost always rank higher with search engines). And even though this may seem to be a bastardization of the press release format, a news release is often the best format to instill some urgency and legitimacy into a story that really doesn't have much news value.
So how do you approach this problem (other than with fire tongs)? Well, you use the same steps as you would with any news announcement, but with a few nuances:
- Reverse engineer the story – The best place to start is with the desired outcome. Think about how you would want the final story to read? What's the big idea you want readers to take away with them? What's your headline? Once you grasp the main theme it will be easy to build a story around it.
- Suspend your news judgment – Remember that this kind of announcement is for general readership and not necessary for the press. That means you can bend the rules a little, especially in the use of adjectives, superlatives, and elements you might not include in most news announcements. Your objective here is to imbue enthusiasm as much as to impart information.
- Research helps – You often can shore up a poor press release topic with facts, facts, and more facts. Do some digging and find research and numbers that will legitimize your release. If someone has statistics, the topic must be important.
- Practice good journalistic style – Just because you may think the release has little or no news value doesn't mean you should be sloppy. Use good journalistic techniques. Open with a lead and use the inverted pyramid to build your story. Follow AP style. It all helps to lend credence to the tale you have to tell.
- Review, revise, and optimize – The best writing is about rewriting, and when you have a tough assignment writing a non-news release, it's even more important to review your work for style and tone, as well as errors. Also optimize your press release for SEO, Twitter, Facebook, and other uses. This kind of press release is usually written to help build awareness, and that means building in key search terms and phrase to promote SEO.
- Distribute appropriately – Don't undermine your own credibility by trying to sell a bad news story to the media. Instead, use alternate distribution strategies to promote online presence and support Web search. Use the paid wire services and post it to the free news sites that will accept it. But don't make the mistake of trying to pass it off as legitimate news.
The rules of public relations are changing with the Internet, and how we use the tools of the trade has to evolve as well. The press release is still an incredibly valuable tool when it comes to getting hard news to journalists looking for information they can print or post. It also can be a useful tool to build a market presence. The most important thing to remember is who is your target audience and what format and information will best meet their information needs.

Forgive our mess. This page is being updated.
Thank you for your patience.
Meshea Crysup
Thank you for your patience.
Meshea Crysup
My two favorite parts of fibroLIFE were fibroTRAVEL© and fibroLIFE Works©. I am happy to announce today that fibroLIFE Works© has been revived at our website!
What is fibroLIFE Works©?
Originally the title had a dual meaning: Making your fibroLIFE© "work out" for you or actually finding a way to "work" in spite of LIVING a fibroLIFE©. While both would still be appropriate, I have decided that in its revival, I will limit the title to actually finding a way to "work" in spite of LIVING a fibroLIFE©.
My reasons are:
- I want the focus to be clear: "work" being done in spite of having Fibromyalgia.
- I want to then use the focused area to help promote those who have actual businesses related to the "work" they have found a way to do.
- I want to use the focused area as a resource for those looking for ideas, inspiration, tips, etc. for "working" in spite of having Fibromyalgia.
Each time I add someone to the fibroLIFE Works© feature page, I will post a link to their information. I will add these links to the ongoing list of links my sister, Melanie Moake, RN, uses to keep our scheduled post queue filled. Therefore, it will actually be an ongoing reminder to our followers about the services, products, etc. available and encourage them to buy from them and/or utilize their services.
Would YOU Like to have YOUR fibroLIFE Works© Story & Information Featured?
If you have a business, service, product, etc. that you are involved with in spite of
LIVING a fibroLIFE© and would like to be featured at our website and have your information frequently shared for others to see, please contact me at firstname.lastname@example.com and include the following:
A brief bio about yourself and having Fibromyalgia (whatever you are comfortable sharing)
- A brief description of your business, product, services, etc.
- Pictures (Preferably one of yourself as well as of your products, logos, etc.)
- Links to your store, products, website etc.
- All of your contact information. (Website, facebook, etsy, ebay, LinkedIN, Twitter, etc.)
I am thrilled to be doing this again because, in the end, I truly believe what I am forever on my soapbox about: we can LIVE in spite of having Fibromyalgia. Any little thing I can do that may help just one of you find LIVING your fibroLIFE© a bit easier, more fulfilling, etc. is how I find part of my own happiness while LIVING my fibroLIFE©!
LIVE each day of your fibroLIFE© to the fullest!

CMU to programme Great Escape convention again in 2013, Poland confirmed as lead international partner
By CMU Editorial | Published on Monday 3 December 2012
CMU will programme the convention side of The Great Escape for the third year running next May, it has been confirmed today. The CMU team has co-ordinated the UK's premiere music business conference since 2011, working with a number of content partners to bring together an unrivalled programme of panels, conversations, insight briefings and networking events, all sitting alongside Europe's leading festival for new music, taking place in venues right across Brighton.
Confirming CMU's involvement in The Great Escape in 2013, the festival's Managing Director Kat Morris told CMU: "The Great Escape is all about new music and the new music business. The CMU team – as they monitor, report on and analyse everything that is happening in the wider music industry on a daily basis – are perfectly positioned to ensure our convention is built around the most relevant and most current topics and people. We are thrilled they will be programming our panels, conversations and networking programme for a third year".
CMU's Publisher and Business Editor Chris Cooke, who also heads up the CMU Insights training and consulting division and leads on the programming of the TGE convention, added: "When you write about the music industry every day, especially at a time when the business is still in flux, having the opportunity to bring together such enlightened and experienced speakers – the risk takers and alternative thinkers in this new music sector – to share ideas and insights, and to sit back for a moment to assess where exactly we are at, is a real joy".
He continued: "We already have some great panels and speakers planned for next May. Meanwhile, one of the particular successes of 2012 was our stepped up networking programme, and we will be moving that up another gear next year, so that our networking strand operates at the same level as our panels programme. The Great Escape truly is the place to learn more about our changing business, and then to do business; while catching some of the world's most exciting new bands".
Also just confirmed is The Great Escape's lead international partner, the country that will be specifically under the spotlight at both the TGE festival and convention next May, and in 2013 that country will be Poland, via a partnership with the Adam Mickiewicz Institute, which will be presenting a special Don't Panic! We Are From Poland programme.
Confirming that partnership, Adam Mickiewicz Institute Director Paweł Potoroczyn told CMU: "Since we established the first Don't Panic! We Are From Poland event in 2008, this showcase of current Polish music has become an identifiable brand throughout Europe and North America. Its recognition and reputation opens the door for music from Poland to be presented at the most important global music business events. The Adam Mickiewicz Institute is delighted to strengthen its relationship with The Great Escape, as host country, having being involved with the festival for the last four years. Absolutely don't panic! And pay attention to Central Europe".
Meanwhile Morris says of this partnership: "We're thrilled to be presenting Poland as lead country partner for The Great Escape 2013. We have showcased Polish artists at TGE for the last four years and have been greatly inspired by the new talent and music businesses that have emerged during that time. 2013 feels like the perfect opportunity to put the spotlight on Poland and we're really looking forward to unveiling the full line up in the new year".
The Great Escape 2013 will take place from 16-18 May. Delegate passes, which gain you access to all the panels, networking events, showcases and parties in the core convention programme, plus priority access into TGE festival venues (subject to capacity) are now available for just £145 from this link.

Like many parents I am time poor. I seem to long for more hours in a day to tackle my never ending To Do list. And as some of you will know we've been trying to sell our house. We sold it a month or so ago only for it to fall through about a week and a half later. Now it looks like we'll be staying put until after our baby is due in early January. So this means that we will need to change our study into Miss Belle's bedroom. Cue… painting and decorating and getting even more stuff done whilst either heavily pregnant or with a newborn. All the fun. Matt works full-time and there's no way I'll do a good job, or have the energy to even try. So, I'll be choosing to look for a painter/decorator locally. And that's where Bidvine comes in.
What's Bidvine?
Bidvine is a website which makes your life easier! It helps you find professionals from event photographers to plumbers in your area. All you have to do is put in what you're looking for and your postcode, and then follow a few questions.
So, when I wanted to look for bids for a painter decorator, I selected Interior Painting. I was then asked a series of questions where I put in the type or room concerned, the size, and the condition of the walls. You can even say whether you'll supply the paint or not. The questions are specific to the service you're looking for. And all of these specific questions help ensure your quote is as accurate as possible. It only takes a few minutes to fill in. Then Bidvine sends the information to trusted local professionals. They will then get back to you within a few hours with their quotes for your job so you can compare and decide who you want. It couldn't be more simple!
Anyone who contacts you is interested in doing your job for you, and actually pays Bidvine to declare their interest, so you know they want your work. Plus, customers can review the professionals after they've used them so there is handy rating system to help you choose who you'll select. Once you've chosen who you want to do your job you can contact them through Bidvine, by phone or email.
The range of services you can look for is pretty extensive. If by some miracle we do sell our house in the next few weeks (and also crucially find a new house), I'll be able to use the service to search for removals companies too.
Have you ever used Bidvine before? I'd definitely recommend it. It's so straight forward to use and I can see myself using it for years to come. Drumming lessons for the kids, personal trainer for yourself, caterers for your parents wedding anniversary party? The ways Bidvine can make your life easier are endless!

Captain Jack Sparrow may surprise – Johnny Depp Horoscope – vedic astrology readings
Johnny Depp used to torture himself by inflicting scars on his body. This was done when he was undergoing the severe stress due to his family problems after separation of his parents. Vedic astrology readings are clearly indicating such self-destructive attitude of harming himself in the horoscope of Johnny Depp. The placement of ascendant lord in sixth house long with Ketu (South Node) and the aspect of the Maraka Saturn over the ascendant are sufficient to make a person so much self-evaluative and responsible to the extreme that he can torture himself.

HopCat lands on Draft Magazine's list of 'best beer bars'
Two West Michigan bars were named to Draft Magazine's 2013 list of "America's 100 best beer bars."
For the fourth year in a row, HopCat, 25 Ionia Ave. SW, was named one of the magazine's top beer bars in the nation.
HopCat brings in rare beers from across the globe, but also keeps a steady rotation of Michigan and Grand Rapids beers on its 48 taps and expansive bottle selection.
The bar also has been named the No. 3 beer bar in the world by BeerAdvocate Magazine and the No. 2 beer bar in America by RateBeer.com.
"We're grateful the people of Grand Rapids, and beer lovers around the world, have embraced HopCat with such enthusiasm," said Mark Sellers, a principal in BarFly Ventures, which also owns the Grand Rapids Brewing Co. among others, last week in a grbj.com article on the bar's fifth anniversary.
In October, Sellers announced the company's plans to open a Lansing Brewing Co. and a second HopCat location in East Lansing in 2013.
On the list for the second time was Ludington's Mitten Bar.
The bar only serves Michigan-made brews and offers up live music and unique food specials such as smoked pork belly.
Two other Michigan bars were listed, including Ashley's in Ann Arbor, which has more than 70 taps, and Clubhouse BFD of Rochester Hills.

Shop drawing simplification boosts precast fabrication productivity
- Details
- Published: Monday, 11 May 2015 16:39
- Written by Concrete News
Professionals throughout the construction value chain perennially confront the question: What are the obstacles to incorporating productivity-advancing processes and innovations the manufacturing industry has employed for years? A building is usually a one-of-one custom made product. A lack of repetitive building designs makes productivity gains in production of structural and architectural elements economically impractical if not impossible—adding time, increasing costs and compounding errors with each and every project.

Our Band Could Be Your Life
I tend to mainly read books about music. The only outliers in my world of music reading obsession are Chuck Palahuniuk and books my friends make me read because they're either:
A. totally about our group of friends
B. being made into a movie
C. being made into a movie starring Robert Pattinson
Sitting pretty at #6 on my Top 10 list of favorite books of all time is "Our Band Could Be Your Life: Scenes from the American Indie Underground, 1981-1991" by Michael Azerrad. This book is essentially a guide to the most underrated, under appreciated and underground punk bands of the 80's and early 90's. Before reading this book, I hadn't spent much time listening to Fugazi or Beat Happening. This book helped me explore some of the best music I never would have heard otherwise. It's an essential cool kid's guide to Punk music- not well known enough that you're listing The Beatles of Punk Rock, Nirvana (who I live and die for), but not so obscure that everyone will think you're a one upper (god, one uppers are THE WORST!) Warning: it's long- nearly 500 pages. But as a person who has the attention span of I child, I can proudly proclaim that I read it all the way through and didn't get bored at all. That's pretty much the equivalent of a chihuahua watching the entire Lord of the Rings trilogy straight through.
Michael Azerrad's writing makes you feel like these are your friends- you get to know the inner workings of Black Flag, Mudhoney, and Minor Threat from real interviews and actual first hand knowledge from people who were there through it all. As someone who deeply believes I should have been born a decade earlier and had my formative years in the late 80s/early 90s, this book is everything I've ever wanted. It makes me feel like I actually lived through these bands in real time, as opposed to a years later and out of context in my bedroom with purple carpet and floral wallpaper (my Mom's choice.) This book puts you in the music and in the scene. You learn why bands like Sonic Youth stuck around, and others didn't. You peek behind the curtain of success, which at some point can just be defined as not killing each other after being in a band together for three decades. But also failure... See: Everyone else. JK! OMG totes JK.
A must read if you music of the punk persuasion, or have an obsession with Henry Rollins. I just so happen to fall into both of those categories.

FROM: Cpt L Morris-Harvey, SS Demeter, in orbit around Planet EarthTO: T Morris-Harvey, 19 Byron Street, Hebrides, Planet Juno
DATE: Third Age, Second Empire; Third Day, Seventh Month, Twentieth YearATTACHED: Images of Earth's surface from orbit
DearestWe have found it! At last!!! All of the planning and searching was worth it.
Earth is no longer a myth, a bright blue-green spark in the collective unconscious. It is real, verifiable, fact!I am writing to you before I submit my official report but you will understand that I will have to send the report off first. But I had to let my excitement spill forth in these words to you, get them out of the way, as it were. The report, in contrast, will be mere facts and figures, as dry and dull as the surface of Earth itself.
Oh, how it would break your heart to see it! But I am getting ahead of myself.We entered Sol's system two days ago. The outer planets are just as the scriptures describe them but Sol is no longer the bright yellow dwarf that the Ancestors left behind them. It is nearing the red giant stage and its surface is within a million kilometres of Earth. Mercury and Venus are gone, swallowed up by the ever-expanding star that once gave life but now destroys it.
The heat beats on the outer plating of our little craft despite all the best our scientists could do to protect the fragile human lives inside. We estimate that we can only remain here for three rotations rather than the five we had planned, so everyone is working around the clock to perform the tests and experiments that are the ultimate purpose of our mission. It's going to be tight, but we will do it.I have thought of you every day since I left you at Juno's space dock but even more so now that we are here. I ache for your touch. The cruelty of Fate to separate us at such a moment! I have railed against it so many times. But we all have duties beyond our paid employment. Family must always come first. These are the things that honour the Ancestors.
I have tried to imagine what you would say as you stood by my side gazing out of the viewing ports at the poor, shrivelled rock that once supported such abundant life. You would have cried your heart out, I know you would. I had tears running down my own face, as I am sure you can imagine.The images that I have attached are ones that I took myself. They will give you some idea of what Earth now is, scorched bare, dead. The official ones that will be attached to my report, that will soon be spread across every news feed in the Empire, are much better, of course. They are clearer, show more detail. We have captured an image of a square meter of ground at the pole, the equivalent of the one the Ancestors took before they left. Then, it was dazzling white; now it is ashen grey. One of our tasks is to locate the position of each of the images that they captured, to contrast the lush greens and serene blues with the barren browns and greys.
I have felt closer to the Ancestors since we arrived. Our courage and ambition mirrors theirs, I think. They had no choice but to leave; we had no choice but to return, to seek out our first home. Did they imagine that we would come back? I have often wondered. After all, they left us no clear directions, no record of their own journey to Terra Nova, Secundus, Trident. Perhaps they did not intend us to return.But it is right that we have come. Scientifically, spiritually, for the sake of sanity if for no other reason. What years of war might we have spared ourselves if we had come sooner?
There were those who said that it was a fool's errand and others who said it was blasphemy. They were all wrong! Still, I have kept half an eye out for sabotage throughout this voyage...I will have to finish this later; there is some kind of problem with the cooling system. The Chief Engineer is muttering something about a conduit being deliberately cut.
A Captain's work is never done...PAUSE...

How to Get Rid of Heartburn in Pregnancy Naturally at Home
It is most likely. Many women experience heartburn for the very first time during pregnancy. It is benign and not unusual, but it may be debilitating.

Hi Pam, This is so adorable I love that little plaid suit your guy has on.ReplyDelete
Thank you for joining my Thankful Thursday Challenge.
Hi Pam, your little leprechaun is adorable in his plaid suit! My Dad was about as Irish as they come (my maiden name is Smiley... very Irish) and we could not leave the house on St. Patrick's Day without the green on... he would have loved the plaid as well! Glad to see you feeling good!ReplyDelete
Crafty Hugs,
{{{applause}}} Yay! Twice in a week Pam, excellent! I'm so proud of you! ;)ReplyDelete
Where did you get this image? It's adorable! I'm loving this card for two reasons. The first is that it's so dawg gone cute! The second is that it reminds me of my hubby Patrick. You see, everytime he does something to get "that look" from me he starts dancing around singing, " I'm a leprechaun, I'm a leprechaun". When he does this he looks just like the one on this card, (but without the beard). He is also 6"4 and 280 lbs. which makes it even funnier. When he wakes up I will be showing him this card! lol! Thanks for the laugh Pam! Good job!
Have a wonderful day!

Hey Pam!!ReplyDelete
It's me...your friend Susan{{I'm waving}}! How are you doing? I haven't been able to get on much this past week but when I have I've been looking to see if you posted. I hope all is good and you're feeling better. How is our little grandbaby doing? I'd love to hear any new stories! I bet his little teeth are coming in really quick now. Oh but that teething period always was so heartbreaking wasn't it? At times you can tell how much it bothers them but there was only so much that could be done. The little red checks, drool and runny noses. Poor little ones. I hope Kyce isn't having a tough time with it. Have you been able to get out and about this week? I look forward to hearing from you! ;)

text: Poll results: Brokers weigh in on industry association It's not quite a clean sweep, but a large number of brokers feel optimistic about what the industry's newest association can do for brokers, according to a recent MortgageBrokerNews.ca poll. The majority of those polled -- 65 per cent --brokers polled believe the Canadian Mortgage Brokers Association (CMBA) – an amalgamated association spearheaded by a number of provincial organizations – will be more broker focused. On the other hand, 35 per cent believe the current associations, including CAAMP and individual provincial organizations, are sufficient. In a joint statement in late April, the presidents of MBABC, MBAAC, and IMBA announced the creation of CMBA. In late April, the presidents of MBABC, MBAAC, and IMBA announced in a joint statement the creation of the Canadian Mortgage Brokers Association. Brokers were quick to commend the move. "The formation of CMBA is a great accomplishment, and is the result of countless hours invested by some key players from the regional associations," John Bargis of Mortgage Edge wrote on MortgageBrokerNews.ca "CMBA has chosen to pay close attention to the industry's ongoing call for the recognition and promotion of the 'Mortgage Broker' as a profession direct to the consumer, and this step brings us that much closer to making this a reality." Others are holding off on passing judgement until the new association settles in. "This is a good step forward, but let's wait and see how the dust settles before passing judgement," Blair Anderson of Anderson and Associates wrote, following the initial announcement of CMBA's formation. "Anything less that exclusive representation of mortgage brokers is a waste of time." SHARE
