Over the next 10 days, you will learn how you can substantially improve your brain power and mental ability, as well as set yourself on the optimal path of cognitive functioning and intellectual growth.
The key point is to understand the concept introduced each day, and follow its implementation as instructed. The crux of it all, is to be consistent: once the routines are established, stick to them.
The brain is a complex organ that, among other functions, responds to stimuli and thoughts. Each thought or stimulus triggers the release of neurotransmitters, and the balance of neurotransmitters can influence the secretion of hormones—which in turn can carry signals to other organs or parts of the body. And, repeated exposure to the stimulus enforces the connections in this structure. Therefore, continuously thinking a certain type (or category) of thought, essentially builds the infrastructure for the brain to stay tuned to such thinking. Positive thoughts are associated with serotonin and dopamine, whilst negative thoughts are associated with adrenalin and cortisol. The former promote brain regeneration and growth, whilst long-
Cognitive distortions (also popularly known as Automatic Negative Thoughts [ANTs]) is something all of us, to a certain extent, perform on a daily basis: exaggerated irrational thoughts—most frequently with a negative connotation. In light of the evidence presented above, reversing such negative thoughts can therefore have a positive and self-
[Cognitive restructuring] From today onwards, for every negative thought-
Thereafter, when the negative thought arises, bring to mind the positive counter argument developed in (4.) and focus on it instead.
Regular exposure to stress has been shown to increase the levels of cortisol in the brain. Long-
Relaxation has the opposite response to stress, and it is equally a natural response that is built-
The simplest form of meditation involves a mantra that gets repeated throughout the session. For example, a common choice would be the syllable "LAM": sit in a comfortable chair, set an alarm to ring in 20 minutes, close your eyes, and slowly repeat "LAM" mentally for the duration of the session. When thoughts creep in, gently re-
Meditate for 20 minutes at least once every day. Preferably meditate first thing in the morning and once again at noon. (Avoid meditating after a meal or before going to sleep.)
For more techniques and a training schedule, see The Manual.
Sleep is a crucial ingredient for a healthier brain and a sharper mind; though, in our fast-
Research suggests that it is during sleep that short-
Adequate amount of sleep is less effective if sleep is not synchronised with the individual's circadian rhythm. The general rule is that one should be asleep at least 6 hours prior to the point in the circadian cycle with the lowest temperature-
Go to bed at the same time every night, which must be before 11 p.m. (if you do not work nightshift of course; if you do, you need to adjust your optimal bedtime according to your individual circadian rhythm—which would differ to the average human). And, for adults over 18 years old, aim to get 7 hours of sleep as a bare minimum—with 8-
Approximately 60% of one's bodyweight consists of water, and the ratio is close to 80% for the brain. Lack of water causes cells to shrink, which in turn can cause a wide range of neurological effects—adversely influencing cognitive function. Furthermore, insufficient water intake is also commonly linked with the increase in stress hormones circulating in the brain—in particular cortisol—which are linked with reduced ability to learn, and short-
It is recommended that men drink close to 3 litres per day, whilst the recommendation for women is 2.2 litres per day. However, factors such as climate, exercise, pregnancy, health status and other lifestyle circumstances can affect this requirement.
Ensure that you get an adequate intake of water every day: 3 litres for men and 2.2 litres for women (correcting for other factors as listed above as needed). And spread the intake evenly throughout the day. A good indicator to validate the adequacy of your water intake is to ensure that at no point through the day you feel thirsty, and that the urine is mostly colourless.
Eating a balanced diet is crucial for healthy brain functioning as well as overall physical health. For example, omega-
Brain foods: Cold-
Bad (for brain) foods: Alcohol (except for red wine, which may be beneficial in moderation), Refined sugar, Artificial food colourings, Artificial sweetener, Colas, Corn syrup, Hydrogenated fats, Nicotine and White bread.
Incorporate the brain foods into your diet and eliminate the Bad (for brain) foods, as listed above. Search for recipes that include the above Brain foods, or specific diets that aim for better physical and mental health. Most importantly, ensure a healthy balance is formed between protein, carbohydrates and fats—all are necessary in every meal.
Research has shown that music can increase a child's IQ and brain development; for adults, it was shown to improve focus and memory. Furthermore, brain scans have demonstrated physiological differences between musicians and non-
Learning to play a new instrument will activate new paths in the mind; which may facilitate an even deeper understanding of subjects that you have already mastered, as well as improve your capacity to learn and think.
Choose a musical instrument that you have always wanted to learn to play; enrol yourself in a course, and dedicate a regular slot in your day for practice and learning. If you already know how to play, set yourself a regular schedule of practice, and continuously strive to master more complex pieces.
Metaphorically speaking, the brain can be regarded as a muscle: mental activity and stimulation can promote a healthier brain, much as physical activity promotes stronger muscles. Scientifically speaking, research suggests that intellectual activity plays a protective role against dementia: researchers at the Albert Einstein College of Medicine in New York found that the reduced risk of dementia may be as high as 75%.
From this day onwards, establish a routine in which you solve one entertaining challenge a day—be it a Crossword, a Puzzle, Sudoku, a Riddle, Rubik's cube, Arithmetic problems, Chess or a Logic question. There are countless websites and books that offer a wide selection. Start with easy problems and built your abilities gradually.
Research suggests that exercise can improve brain functioning; act as an antidepressant; increases blood flow and thus oxygen uptake—including to the brain; possibly protects against dementia; releases endorphins, the body's natural pain reliever; promotes neurogenesis (stimulating the formation of neurons); and increases serotonin and dopamine, neurotransmitters that play a role in concentration, mood and sleeping patterns.
From this day onwards, establish a routine in which you spend at least 30 minutes, five times per week, performing physical exercise—mixing between vigorous (e.g. Running) and moderate (e.g. Walking). You could, for example, go jogging one Day 1; do Yoga on Day 2; swimming on Day 3; walking on day 4; and weights and circuit training on Day 5. Walking, Running, Swimming, and Cycling are popular choices. The best approach is to design a schedule that involves a variety of sports and physical activities that you enjoy.
Spend more time with people who make you feel good; people who inspire you; and people with similar hobbies/goals.
Research suggests that even short periods of daily interactions with another person can improve memory and cognitive functions. The more complex the interaction, the stronger the effect.
Ensure you interact daily with like minded individuals: discussing complex matters or debating contentious topics. Face to face is preferable due to the added stimulus of reading body language and facial expressions. Secondly, join groups and forums for topics of interest—the old fashioned book club is still very effective.
The average American watches over 4 hours of TV a day—i.e., more than a sixth of his/her life. TV has been associated with: externally influenced belief-
The message is clear: reduce the amount of time you spend in front of the TV, and replace it with time spent on challenging cognitive activities. Reading is a good alternative.
Learning and challenging the mind was demonstrated to have an enhancing effect on memory and survival of new neurons. Continuous effort to learn and grow intellectually means that more connections are made between neurons, which, in turn, builds a stronger network from which information can be retrieved.
Gradually reduce TV time to one movie and one TV show each week. Replace this time with brain building activities such as: learning a new language (research has shown that speaking more than one language may slow the degeneration of cognitive abilities that is common with the ageing process); reading technical books and novels; computer programming or building physical structures (model airplanes, ships, or even better: inventions and gadgets). The list goes on: the main ingredients should be something that you enjoy and that it is mentally challenging.

At the heart of one of the most densely populated areas of Europe, in a country where every square meter of land has been meticulously shaped by man, lie the Oostvaardersplassen – a unique experiment in letting nature run its course. In just 40 years, 6,000 hectares of newly formed polder has been transformed into one of Europe's most dynamic and productive wetlands – home to some of Europe's rarest birds such as the magnificent white tailed eagle, which hadn't been seen in the Netherlands since the Middle Ages.
Three years in production and with more than 600 shooting days in the field, The New Wilderness is a spectacle, an ode, a visual tone poem, celebrating the wildness, stark beauty and sheer majesty of a unique natural monument. Shot in 4K cinemascope, the film charts the cycle of life through the course of four seasons, from birth through death to new life, forging a direct sensory and emotional connection with this thriving wetland and the many wild creatures that have made it their home – including 1,200 Koniks, that make up the largest herd of wild horses in Europe.

Winter Wonders, Weeds and Warm Weather
Micro-climate gardening gets me through the winter. Yesterday was a great December day. The sun was shining and the outside morning temperature was 39°F. Sounds cold? Our porch temperature was 80°F!
After toasting in the sun through coffee and breakfast on our front porch, my husband headed out for a run and I headed out in the garden. Our neighbors must think we're totally crazy! Of course, the garden is cooler than the porch, but I worked without a jacket and was toasty warm in our sunny gardens. I wish I could share the warmth and sunshine with my fellow gardeners who are suffering from seasonal affective disorder (S.A.D.).
I decided to start the weeding with the cottage garden so that it would be all nice and neat for the holidays. After several inches of rain this week, I dug out the wild onions with no problems. I easily scooped out other encroaching weeds with my trowel.
The waterfall garden needed a bit of tending. The calla lily had finally folded, so I trimmed up the foliage. The creeping jenny was creeping too far into the water, so I wore rubber gloves to pull it out. I moved those ground-covering clumps to the backside of the waterfall hill that needs some erosion control. Not a big loss if the jenny doesn't make it. All you have to do is pinch of a sprig of jenny and place it in water or soil to root.
The rabbits (or deer) had totally munched down the heuchera in the fragrance garden. I know this isn't a good time to transplant, but I dug up a 'Palace Purple', a 'Key Lime' and a 'Peach Flambe' and tucked those inside the cottage garden underneath a buddleia. The soil was still very workable, had drained well and wasn't too wet. Since it rarely freezes in that location, I have high hopes for the heuchera to recover.
The perennials that continue to show pretty foliage are my "winter wonders."
In the cottage garden, the evergreen dianthus (Bath's Pink) edges the gravel path opposite the Knock Out® Roses, that still have leaves. The fragrant foliage of the Spanish lavender was trimmed in October and is now a pretty, grey-green.
At the end of the row of dianthus is a cascading rosemary, still blooming with tiny, blue flowers. The little scabiosa 'Butterfly Blue' is still blooming, too. Even several verbena bonariensis are still blooming in front of the porch! The sedum 'Angelina' is bright and colorful underneath the Japanese maple that has lost all leaves at this point. The creeping thyme is green, lush and very fragrant.
Throughout the outer gardens, there are clumps of perfectly green foliage at the base of my agastache 'Salmon and Pink' as well as the 'Coronado'. I noticed that a cutting of salvia gregii had rooted out in the garden, showing tiny green leaves. The cutting started as a broken branch. I trimmed it up, dipped it in rooting compound and just stuck it in the butterfly garden a few months ago.
By the front walkway, the stachys hummelo, monarda, and nepeta are all still healthy clumps of green. The ice plant is looking a bit tired, but I believe it is from the rain. Ice plant is another groundcover that you can pinch in the summer and just plant it in moist soil.
Up on my front porch, the container plants are still blooming. The purple petunias and rosy mums are providing the color.
Not bad for a December day in North Carolina!

[Translates as 'Greek almond cake', but I rather doubt the recipe is actually even remotely Greek. On the other hand, unlike all the other recipes I've posted I haven't seen this, or a version of it, anywhere else so far, so if this looks familiar, let me know...]
You need:
# 120 g butter (not too cold)
# 120 g powdered sugar
# 250 g flour
# 1 egg
# a pinch of salt
# 1 package (= 8 g) vanilla sugar
# 40 g chocolate (dark)
# almond halves
# Melt the chocolate in a pan over a pot of boiling water.
# Beat butter, sugar and vanilla sugar with a hand mixer until it's a creamy mass.
# Add the chocolate
# Add the egg.
# Add the flour and pinch of salt.
# The dough will still be a bit crumbly, so knead briefly by hand until it's a homogenous mass.
# Cut the dough in two halves.
# Roll out each half into a rectangular shape (not too thin).
# Put almond halves along the middle. It should look like this:
# Fold the sides over the middle so that the almonds are covered, and close the ends. The dough will probably crack a bit and you'll need to squeeze and pat the loaf into shape. I usually turn it upside down a few times, etc., until the overlapping sides are firmly closed. It should look like this:
# Cover with plastic wrap and leave in a cool place (or the fridge) overnight.
# Cut into thin slices.
# Bake at ca. 180 degrees until the cookies turn light brown and the almonds take on a bit of colour.
# Finished!

The Damned Series Google Party
Book 2 of the Damned -Wingless Series, Book 1 review below,
The Damned Series (Wingless and Damned/Wingless and Forsaken) [Kindle Edition]
http://www.amazon.com/Damned-Wingless-Forsaken-ebook/dp/B00B87P4D2/ref=la_B009R8TZFM_1_2?ie=UTF8&qid=1363128316&sr=1-2 book 2
This reader will admit I am a junkie and an addict, for this author's books, as I waited with anticipation for the author next book, it was published and I got my fix. This second book was better then the first. It continues with strong Lea, and her soul-mate, fighting the strigoi, looking for the original five, who were in authority when the curse was declared so long ago. The companions, along with Lea's half sister and Alexander's brothers gathered forces to go hunting and locate their prey to killed them and discontinue the curse.
As they bond, they are met with devastating tragedies, which only fuels their anger to complete the mission to extinguish the all generations of strigoi, from the ancient to the present generation. The strigoi go on a rampage and attack the werewolves families and slaughter so many in wicked ways.
Alexander loses his loved one and vows revenge, his and his brother sneak off to search and destory the evil, all the way into Hell itself. The author was so descriptive with the scenes and the events this reader was haunted Yet she blended in the love and lust between Lea and Alexander, Lea's sister and Alex's brother, so the reader's mind was stimulated so high and then plunges to the depths of a low, a calming effort, as the love bond etched from the depths of a writer's soul got all four through some graphic Hellish incidents. As they have to pass the dangerous levels and do unnatural actions to rescue their loved ones. Mature audiences, for the scenes in some of the paragraphs were sizzling hot.
This story was definitely better, then the first, and it was a high this reader enjoyed, and will look for the third in the series coming in May or June, 2013. I know what I want as a reader for a Mother's day gift. hint, hint, children. Author Dawn White's Third book, Wingless and Shattered.
Book 1 Review

Wingless and Damned by Dawn White
This is a surreal story with many characters and a deep plot. The first part prologue is set in Eleusis West Attica Greece 1700 BC, opens with the mythological being Aison flying in to rescue his beloved Kora, but it too late. In his fury of her demise he put a curse on the offenders. In his deep anguish he creates evil creatures to stalk and killer all the tribes' people from generations to generations at a certain time every two centuries.
In the author's words'
"Forces unseen begin to pull him skyward as he glares at the witnesses to the carnage of his once most beloved. Zeus warned me of falling in love with a mortal! When he gets his wits to him he sets out on his journey to make as many monstrosities he can possibly make. All noble traits and empathy he once possessed for the mortals are continuously consumed by the hatred. Becoming a monster of immense proportions only to turn his hatred into a sire of five other originals to own the deepest darkest corners of this hell we call earth."
Then the tale continues to a later in time, 1810 Adirondacks Whiteface mountain range Upstate New York.
Opening with the In the Neuri tribe, the medicine woman is ill and they relied on a substitute healer Ciarra, a powerful witch. She decides it is time for her tribe to defend themselves against the cursed fang monsters that come in the night and bloody attacked and executed the innocent. She listens to the spiritual whispers to her and they tell her the ritual to chant to transform the brave warriors into supernatural creatures, cursed all future generations to transform into werewolves at the age of 26 years, to live as immortal creatures of the night to defend their tribe against the evil that comes to destroy, the cursed five originals, of the storgi, the formidable enemies of the Neuri tribe.
Ciarra the witch and the Alpha wolf Aison the were feeling remorse and wanted to break the transformation but she could not as a powerful witch, for the spiritual voices do not tell her how to change the human men back. She is taken hostage by the supernatural Aison who tries to change the course of destiny and tells her she has to twist the curse and put a loophole in it. This has to be done to stop the never ending war of evil upon the earth. Before she was almost eaten alive, she chants that the only way this spell can be broken is if a mated pair come together and crossover at the same time. This will make them part werewolf and part strigoi which is the only way they can successfully kill the original five strigoi to break the curse.
She is rescued by Aison and they continue to figure how break the curse, but the curse carries into the future until the two lovers meet and bond as mates. And they come together into a bonding union and transform into the destined mated pair through a sensual lustful transformation, the fae and the werewolf, Lea and Alexander are the appointed saviours to stop the fateful curse.
She is rescued by Aison and they continue to figure how break the curse, but the curse carries into the future until the two lovers meet and bond as mates. And they come together into a bonding union and transform into the destined mated pair through a sensual lustful transformation, the fae and the werewolf, Lea and Alexander are the appointed saviours to stop the fateful curse.
This reader added this paragraph in to explain Ciarra's role as a powerful witch,
In the author's words:
"My name is Ciarra and as medicine woman for the Neuri tribe, I work with my tribal ancestors or spirit guides and nature to keep the balance and peace within our tribe. So far my job hasn't been easy."
"Twelve of the strongest men in the tribe have volunteered to be ones be spelled as werewolves. I begin twisting what used to be thought of as a curse into a simple transformation spell. When I am done, no one will recognize them. However, to be honest, I have no idea how to change them back. I watch nervously as the beautiful, naked men of the Neuri tribe stand shoulder to shoulder as they begin to painfully transform into what seems to be mindless beasts."
"As the Neuri men writhe in pain and agony, my spirit guides start chanting in an unknown language, calming the men. My expressive arm movements while talking to the men seem to draw them in closer to hear me. I give the men instructions to hunt the strigoi down."
then this paragraph of the two meeting, the first couple, Aison and Ciarra and how she has to break the curse: earlier in the tale.
"He sits down across the table from me and looks me in the eyes with his horrific red glare. Seemingly casual and polite, he says, "You are here to finish what you started. You started a war that eventually will consume strigoi and man beast alike, and no one will be safe. You think you were helping your people but it has been prophesized that this will not end well—millions will die."
The brief tale continues with suspense as the witch is almost consumed by the evil strigoi, Aison comes to her rescue but he needs to turn her to mend from the feast of the monsters on her broken body. He is concern about the other hostage, who he locked away in safety from the hungry predators. She is pregnant with the last female, and he realizes the only path was to protect the tribe last baby born under the curse, and has her escape with the two faes who were released by him, as hostages of the strigoi, and they escape into a safe realm.
Where she is raised by her aunts, the fae decides it is time to travel to the earthly realm to visit other relatives. She is at the age of 25, no longer is the defenseless baby girl, developed into a young beautiful woman and she is the catalyst to transform the curse. To have the loophole work she has to bond with a werewolf to become part of each other and they become formidable foes against the evil creatures, the five originals strigoi of the earth and below. All five who were created by their master Aison to exact revenge for his lost love, Kora. They are to be hunted them down and he wanted to execute them in same bloody fashion, as they did to the folks of the tribe. The story is a series and will continue as the two mated couple will continue on the journey to exact their revenge and justice and executed all the strigoi.
The background of the plot is to have the loophole work they understand they need to have a future couple come together in a sensual union, to bond as one to attain supernatural powers and as they opened the flood gates of time and destiny. The prediction comes true as Lea and Alexander meet in the future. As they related and they increased their lust for each other and through their beautiful and sensual love bonding, they exchanged their DNA when united, the fae was changed in a predator monster with many new powers and secrets. They become united in their mission, each bringing their own intelligence, and supernatural abilities to become powerful avengers.
The couple, Lea and Alexander became a team and start to hunt the foes. The poor fae, Lea has much to accept in her transformation. Such as and likes and dislikes some of her new traits. She is not alone for she has her soul-mate and he very protective of her, charming and a sweet lover. Yet he is keeping secrets from her.
The author has added in more twists and made the plot more suspenseful as other events torn at this reader's heart as lives were lost and hearts are broken. This and more sacrifices are to occur for the good to triumph over evil.
There are sexy charming woo lala, scenes in the story. Like the heart scene between the mythological being/werewolf and the powerful witch earlier in the beginning of the story, I added this to display this author's style of writing and her technique to attract the reader.
"In order to keep you safe after the ceremony, you will need to be mine."
"The moment the last word left his mouth, I felt a sharp then amazingly pleasurable pressure on my neck. I do not even have an inclination to pull away! My body melts into Aison as his lips and tongue take what he needs. I feel my inner fire igniting, imagining what his lips and tongue would feel like and taste like on other more sensitive areas. Just as my mind is wandering to these delicious things, he stops and looks at me."
"You need to drink a small amount of my blood in order to finish this. "You must twist the curse again and make it irreversible All born of your tribe from this day forward will be cursed as a werewolf at the age of 26 and be doomed to roam the Earth finding no peace or rest until the end of the strigoi."
"The only way this spell can be broken is if a mated pair come together and crossover at the same time. This will make them part werewolf and part strigoi which is the only way they can successfully kill the original strigoi to break the curse."
Lea and Alexander are even able to communicate telepathically, and there are tender moments, laughable moments and serious moments as they speak to each other in the midst of their lives, love making and preparing for the final battle against the strigoi, by psychic communication.
The conclusion at the end of this short novella of another threat looming on the horizon has compelled this reader to want to keep an eye open for this author's future publications which will be is to be publish as a series. This was a short story, a teaser, but it whetted my appetite to see what will happen with the powerful werewolves and the strigoi as they fight to the death. The battle of love to triumph over hate was definitely the theme to this entertaining story fill with action and heart thumping action.

Many small business owners use social media sites such as Facebook, Twitter, and LinkedIn to promote their business. Blackberry, Audi, and Coca-Cola are just a few of the many Big Brands that use social media and specifically Facebook status updates to their advantage. Businesses use Facebook status updates or create social media posts to engage and communicate with customers, employees, friends, family and other followers. In this article, we share a couple of thoughts used by Big Brands for Facebook status updates to grow their following and create Raving Fans.
Facebook Status Updates by Big Brands
Hershey's uses Facebook status updates to torture our tastebuds and increase their business through funny jokes, deliciously painful pictures, and promoting special events. Hershey's uses their products image to draw in followers and customers (over 6 million of them on their Facebook page). The goal is to draw attention to a brand, so don't just add a boring link and call it a day. Facebook users want something appealing, educational, funny or entertaining.
Restaurants, food labels, and car dealerships all use Facebook status updates to their advantage. To increase their marketing and brand awareness, they update their Facebook status with creative questions, photos, articles and videos for their ideal client also know as target audience to find appealing and entertaining. The easiest way to organize what you would like to include in your Facebook status updates is to organize your ideas into a content marketing calendar and decide what it is that you're target audience is truly interested in reading and reviewing.
The technique is simple. In fact, Gap used a status update that earned thousands of likes and comments. "Take up to 40% off select styles on gap.com and in stores…" Not only did this update receive amazing reviews, but it also brought customers to Gap and convinced them to purchase their products off gap.com and in stores. 12 words is all it took to increase their Raving Fan base which in turn increases their revenue and profit.
Take a note from these Big Brand and create Facebook status updates that will increase your business for the better. For help with creating a social marketing campaign to grow your local brand and business, call Social180 at 469-420-0180 today!

Fall is the Perfect Time to Visit Winks Body Shop in Ithaca
Welcome Autumn! What an amazing summer we had, and hopefully you enjoyed safe travels. But if your vehicle suffered collision damage, know that we here at Wink's Body Shop in Ithaca have what you need to fix your car or truck.
Collision repair in Ithaca is not a hit-or-miss deal when it comes to working with Wink's. We have the best professionally trained technicians in the area and can provide you with exceptional service before, during and after the repair.
Ithaca Collision Repair
It's well-known that one of the highest months for traffic accidents is in August. Odds are that your vehicle may have suffered some bumps, dents or more significant damage. Whether you had a collision with another vehicle, a deer, or even had a tree fall on your car…we can provide you with an estimate for repair and get started on it to suit your schedule.
Repairs need to be dealt with promptly to avoid rust setting into the damaged area. With winter approaching (sorry to remind you), but winter means salt and corrosives on the roadways. This means rust will attack unprotected areas of the metal on your vehicle. If you don't fix it before that rust sets in, the repair could become a lot more costlier.
Setting up an appointment with an Ithaca collision repair shop should not be an arduous deal, and it's not here at Wink's Body Shop in Ithaca. We offer immediate service, estimates, will work with your insurance company, and want you as a customer for life.
Making our customers happy and pleased with our work is our number one priority. We know that the process of insurance claims, dealing with the companies and adjusters, never mind the actual repair work, can be daunting. There is so much that is unknown when you are a car owner. The trick is to relax when you know you have the absolute best and reliable body shop team on your side.
Collision Repair in Ithaca
No matter where in the area you live, winter is going to be here along with the potential for vehicle damage. Don't let additional damage destroy your vehicle's value and stability.
Remember that even small collisions can cause structural and frame damage. It takes a professionally trained and experienced technician and body shop in Ithaca to adequately inspect and repair your vehicle. Safety is the number one priority when appraising collision damages to a vehicle. Some repairs just cannot be made to restore the vehicle to like-original condition. That's when it's imperative that your body shop professional is able to honestly evaluate the damages. Far better to total out the car or truck now than to put you and your family at risk.
Frame damage is the number on issue that is sometimes overlooked. We at Wink's Body Shop in Ithaca have state-of-the-art frame straightening machines and personnel. We are extremely well-trained in using the equipment to provide the best possible outcome on frame repairs.
Fall is the time to take stock of your car's overall condition and address the needs it may be displaying. Small scratches and dents to crushed quarter panels, dented bumpers and even roof damage can be dealt with here at Wink's Body Shop in Ithaca.
Come on down and see us today! You can also call us directly at (607) 277-7775 to set up an appointment. We look forward to working with you!Tags: collision repair in Ithaca, Ithaca Body Shop, Ithaca Collision Repair, Ithaca collision repair shop, Wink's Body Shop in Ithaca

Upcoming Malayalam superstar Dulquer Salmaan will be seen as a Thrissur native in his next, which will be directed by Sathyan Anthikkad. Mukesh will plays Dulquer's father, a businessman, in the untitled flick.
Mukesh, who has acted with Dulquer's father, megastar Mammootty, in many superhit movies, is joining hands with the young actor for the first time. Also, this is the first time Dulquer will be seen speaking in Thrissur dialect. It has to be noted that Mammootty was praised for his turn as a Thrissur native in the superhit movie "Pranchiyettan & the Saint" in 2010. The Dulquer-starrer is expected to open to positive response as Malayalam movies based on Thrissur have always been accepted well by viewers for the unique dialect used by the natives of the cultural capital of Kerala.
The untitled Sathyan movie is expected to go on floors in the month of July after Dulquer wraps up the shooting of Amal Neerad's next. Dulquer plays a Kottayam achayan (a term used to describe Syrian Christians in Kerala) in the untitled Amal movie. Anu Emmanuel of "Action Hero Biju" fame will be seen opposite Dulquer in the film, which is being shot in Palai and other parts of Kottayam.
Check Kammatipaadam teaser | posters
Dulquer Salmaan, who is basking in the success of Sameer Thahir's "Kali," has a handful of projects in his kitty for the year. The directorial ventures of Prathap Pothen ("Love In Anjengo"), Ashiq Abu and Anoop Sathyan are expected to go on floors in the coming months. The "Charlie" actor is also awaiting the release of National Award-winning cinematographer Rajeev Ravi's upcoming film "Kammatipaadam." The movie, which also has Shaun Romy, Rasika Dugal, Vinayakan and Shine Tom Chacko in significant roles, is scheduled to hit the theatres on May 20.

Which Messages Did You Fail To Notice From Designers At London Fashion Week?
March 7, 2017
Some say, women used to rule the world. Women were goddesses worshipped as supreme by men. Archaeologists have found more and more evidence of a Matriarchal age in the past. You would probably wonder "what does this have to do with London Fashion Week"? Well, the recent events around the world led us to wonder if we live in a false sense of unity, equality and humanity. It seems implausible to think women still have to march to defend their rights, humans are discriminated based on their religion or the colour their skin. Is the world transgressing? Well, fashion designers understand their power of influence and for this season, they left clear messages that most have not taken the time to decode.
Teatum Jones – Truly humans and authentic
Teatum Jones opened London Fashion Week with a very strong story about the past. Inspired by the work of Hans Bellmer, a man who opposed the fascism of the Nazi Party. He fashioned mutated doll forms and unconventional poses that stood against the ideals of the new German state. Through a collection beautifully crafted, they showcased oversized coats, column dresses, sheer layers, eyeleted seams and strapped waistlines. Like the victims of war in a fight for freedom and equality, Teatum Jones chose among their models, amputees such as Jack Eyers who proudly walked alongside the models on the catwalk. This collection is a reflection of a past that shouldn't repeat itself and the positive outcome of standing against oppression.
Amanda Wakeley – The beauty and power in the fusion of cultures
In an intimate moment between Amanda Wakeley and I, I discovered that the source of inspiration of her collection was French women from Japanese descent. There is so much beauty in the fusion of cultures. She clearly understood this and was able to create her unique collection full of rich colours, unique fabrics & textures. The women of Amanda embrace their rich, cultural Japanese heritage to create a sophisticated eclecticism whilst drawing influence from the indigenous Ainu tribe. The dominant colours of her collection were consequently red & black, mixed within layers, cinched into the waist with multi wrap belts. The layers, the colours, the trousers, the embroidery dress, the crafted pieces were the reflections of a woman who is confident, unique and bravely embraces who she is.
Julien McDonald – The beauty standards have changed
Julien, true to himself, understands how to make women feel like goddesses and empower them to steal the dance floor. During my post show time with him, he declared "I love to dress women all around the world, no matter what colour or what size; they just want to have fun!" For his finale, he brought on stage the gorgeous Winnie Harlow to close the show. This was a beautiful statement that showcased that the standards of beauty have been reset to open the doors to a new definition of beauty.
This season, Bora Aksu dedicated his collection to Princess Sophia Duleep Singh, the daughter of the Maharaja Duleep Singh and goddaughter of Queen Victoria. This woman could have been just another princess but she was the pioneer of the Suffragette movement, a group of militants who fought for women's right to vote. Sophia was the muse of Bora and he showcased beautifully the contrast in her life. The embroideries, textures and pastel colours are the reflections of her free spirit, femininity, strength, passion and determination.
Savile Row, is one of the most famous streets in London. Located in Mayfair, this street is known predominantly for its traditional bespoke tailoring for men. Inspired by it and a fervent of female empowerment, Daks created this season the "Savile Row Woman". Through this well-tailored and androgynous collection, I distinguished sophisticated, elegant and powerful female entrepreneurs and leaders for this century. The women aren't just dressed well to impress but to lead.
Fyodor Golan – Superwomen
This was by far one the most fun and unexpected collection to witness. Fyodor Podgorny and Golan Frydman were inspired by the work of Katharina Grosse, known for large-scale artworks. The presentation was a fusion of graphic prints and a twist of bold colours. They were also inspired by the 'The PowerPuff Girls', a superhero cartoon. Finally, the Post-it note, an essential tool in our self-expression was reinvented by the designers as fun tops to wear. Fyodor & Golan want to empower women to be fearless, bold and be their true selves.

FIFA orders Rosberg to remove trophy from helmet
Nico Rosberg has been forced to amend his special German Grand Prix helmet in celebration of Germany's latest World Cup win.
The Mercedes driver had shown off his one-off helmet on Twitter, where an image of the World Cup trophy could be seen on the top, but it has now been replaced with a star after football's governing body contacted Rosberg and asked that he remove it.
"A shame, I would have loved to carry the trophy as a tribute to the guys. But of course I respect the legal situation," he later said.
"The world cup as a trademark - these are the kind of things you have to think of. It's amazing.
"I've replaced it now with a big star and no one can take that away. The star is ours," he exclaimed.
Whilst FIFA has confirmed it was behind the change, it's believed Mercedes rival Hyundai actually initiated the complaint as they hold the rights to use the image as the World Cup's official sponsor.

Three-time Newbery Honor author Jacqueline Woodson's adaptation of her 2006 novel, Locomotion, had its world premiere at the Kennedy Center's Family Theater on October 23. Directed by Jennifer L. Nelson, the play runs through October 31. Locomotion, which was published by Putnam in 2005, was a National Book Award finalist and won a Coretta Scott King Honor.
Locomotion centers on an 11-year-old boy, nicknamed Locomotion for his high energy, who is struggling in foster care after the deaths of his parents; he discovers that poetry helps him express his feelings about that tragedy, his sister, and his new life. It wasn't this story, but another of Woodson's novels that initially caught the eye of Deirdre Lavrakas, the production operations manager at the Kennedy Center. She brought it to the attention of her husband, Kim Peter Kovac, the Kennedy Center's director of theater for young audiences, who wasn't interested in adapting that novel, but perused Woodson's other work and selected Locomotion for adaptation.
Though she had written a pilot for Nickelodeon's mini-series adaptation of her novel Miracle's Boys, Woodson had never adapted her fiction for the stage. The novel's format provided her with a distinct challenge, since it involves what she calls "both external and internal action. In the play, the external action plays out traditionally on stage, while Locomotion recites his poetry directly to the audience. That way, I was able to show both of his worlds."
Woodson has made numerous trips from her Brooklyn home to Washington, D.C., since rehearsals began for Locomotion in September. There she collaborated closely on the play with dramaturge Faedra Chatard Carpenter, a professor in the department of theatre at University of Maryland, and director Nelson, an adjunct professor in theater at Georgetown University, who has worked in professional theater for 37 years.
The process of making her story come alive on stage was rewarding, Woodson reports —and not entirely unlike her publishing experience. "Faedra helped let the light come through the slits, in the same way that my editor, Nancy Paulsen, does when she's working on my books," she explains. Woodson felt it was important to open and close Locomotion with music, and asked a friend, songwriter and musician Toshi Reagon, to write and record the song that frames the play.
Woodson (whose Pecan Pie Baby, illustrated by Sophie Blackall, is due out today from Putnam), likens the experience of watching her play at the Kennedy Center to holding a picture book she's written for the very first time. "Even though I've seen sketches and paintings, there's something about the finished book and the way the illustrations and the words feel like they were always a part of each other," she observes. "The same is true of the play—the lights, the staging, the costumes. None of this was my doing, but it all became part of a bigger, better whole in a way that made me really happy."
Though she expressed some nervousness before the premiere, Woodson reports that her reaction to seeing the debut performance was "one of absolute relief more than anything else. In some ways, it was everything I expected, but it was also very different." She notes that the audience's standing ovation at one of last weekend's matinees "was very surprising."
Yet clearly gratifying. "It's always amazing to be a part of other people's experience of my work," she says. "At the performances, when the audience laughed or nodded in agreement, all I could think was 'Yes! They got it!' "

Unfortunately for me, this post isn't about me hitting the road and flying off to Spain again any time soon. However, I think I will enjoy this quite a bit. Last year, Chef Mario Batali and Gwyneth Paltrow traveled throughout Spain to find the best it had to offer in food and culture. I am so excited for this show to air in September! I absolutely fell in love in Spain when I visited in June and I am a big fan of Gwyneth's. Did you know that she speaks impeccable Spanish? She studied abroad in Spain as a teenager and has maintained her knowledge of the language.
Check your local PBS listings for an exact air date and time or sign up for updates on the show's official website. In the meantime, make sure to watch the delightful preview I posted above!
