DC/Warner Bros is coming out with a new series aimed at young (ages 6-12) girls and it looks SO good:
This is the least sexualized I've seen Poison Ivy and Harley, possibly ever. Which is great! I think "Controlling plants" is something a lot of young folks would want as a super power, but be put off by the rampant sexualization of that character (I might have just finished playing Arkham Asylum and, well, Harley and Ivy had some interesting outfits. Sometimes I like having sexy Harley/Ivy, but I'm really glad they're having these versions). Anyway, have some quotes from The Mary Sue/the press release:
Diane Nelson, President of DC Entertainment said in a statement: "DC Super Hero Girls represents the embodiment of our long-term strategy to harness the power of our diverse female characters. I am so pleased that we are able to offer relatable and strong role models in a unique way, just for girls."
OH THE PANDERING. Won't somebody think of the boys??? What will they have? Oh, right. Everything else.
DC Super Hero Girls, an exciting new universe of Super Heroic storytelling that helps build character and confidence, and empowers girls to discover their true potential. Featuring DC Comics' most powerful and diverse line-up of female characters as relatable teens, DC Super Hero Girls will play out across multiple entertainment content platforms and product categories to create an immersive world.
Developed for girls aged 6-12, DC Super Hero Girls centers on the female Super Heroes and Super-Villains of the DC Comics universe during their formative years—prior to discovering their full super power potential. Featuring a completely new artistic style and aesthetic, DC Comics' icons such as Wonder Woman, Supergirl, Batgirl, Harley Quinn, Bumble Bee, Poison Ivy, Katana and many more make their unprecedented teenaged introduction. Each character has her own storyline that explores what teen life is like as a Super Hero, including discovering her unique abilities, nurturing her remarkable powers and mastering the fundamentals of being a hero.
The initial launch of DC Super Hero Girls in Fall 2015 will include an immersive digital experience, original digital content and digital publishing—providing opportunities for girls to interact with characters, learn about the storylines, and engage in customizable play. TV specials, made-for-videos, toys, apparel, books and other product categories will begin to rollout in 2016.
Katana! Katana! Katana!
The creative team hasn't been established yet, but they've already made some deals for toys and books AND LEGO:
As master toy licensee, Mattel is collaborating with DC Entertainment, Warner Bros. Animation and Warner Bros. Consumer Products on DC Super Hero Girls' narrative creation, interactive digital activations and ultimately a toy line launching in 2016. Mattel category-leading firsts include a line of characters for the action figure category, an area of the industry that has been primarily developed with boys in mind, and fashion dolls featuring strong, athletic bodies that stand on their own in heroic poses.
The Random House Books for Young Readers imprint of Random House Children's Books has been appointed the master publishing partner for the franchise and will be creating a portfolio of books that will bring the DC Super Hero Girls world to life, beginning in Spring 2016. Random House's publishing program will be complemented by a series of original graphic novels from DC Entertainment. The LEGO Group will also be key to building the DC Super Hero Girls franchise, leveraging their experience and success engaging girls in creative construction play to bolster this universe through an array of LEGO® building sets designed to inspire girls' imaginations. Additionally, consumer products partners around the world will be engaged in creating a merchandise line dedicated to DC Super Hero Girls across all key categories.
I can't wait to see this!

Industry / Automobile
Established in 1977, Auto Trader is the UK and Ireland's largest digital automotive marketplace. Listing more than 450,000 cars each day, Auto Trader began as a group of magazines with a large circulation that peaked in 2000 but ceased in 2013 as the business moved completely to be a digital marketplace where it now attracts approximately 55 million cross-platform visits each month (70% of those coming through mobile devices). Recently Auto Trader introduced a new identity designed by London-based Studio Output.
We evolved the Auto Trader logo to work harder across digital platforms. A wider colour palette appeals to a broader audience base while building on the core blue & red of the brand's heritage. And a robust new type family brings a more welcoming tone to headlines, messaging and data visualisation.
Studio Output project page
This logo change is the equivalent of buying the new model of the same car: it's familiar, it's mostly the same, but it has improved aesthetics and performance. The old logo had a 1970s magazine aesthetic with its Avant Garde-esque wordmark and it did show a certain age. The new logo keeps the same proportions (and single-storey "a") but updates with a contemporary sans serif that looks infinitely better (and is not a straight-up geometric sans). The looser spacing is very welcome as is the flat approach to the icon, which who knows what it is but it looks car-ish.
Auto Trader is the UK's leading digital automotive marketplace. It makes exclusively digital products, with an average 55 million monthly visits - 70% of those on mobile. Despite all this, some people still think it's a print magazine for middle-aged men.
The system builds on the brand's heritage, embodying a personality that reflects the business as it is, not as it was - and evolving into something purpose-built for digital platforms.
Studio Output project page
Auto Trader used a lot of product-led photography, creating the sense of a transactional brand. We introduced a more emotive approach, helping the audience to picture themselves using the vehicles. Copy was vital to this, and we worked with Reed Words to establish a more conversational Auto Trader voice, with guidelines for the internal teams using it.
Studio Output project page
Beyond the car itself, Auto Trader often struggled to visualise abstract topics like part exchange or insurance, without resorting to clichéd photography. Ownership of manufacturer imagery had always been a challenge too. We introduced an illustration system to solve these problems, while communicating a more friendly personality.
Studio Output project page
The photography and illustration approaches aren't fully novel or super exciting but they are consistent in look and warm in feelings. The combination of manufacturer-provided photos with the illustration backgrounds is the more adventuresome application and it does look nice.
In digital products, the experience of a brand is informed by the quality and responsiveness of interaction. We explored and defined a set of motion principles that will guide the Auto Trader teams, building the sense of a united brand across all platforms.
Studio Output project page
The motion approach is also familiar — not in a they-copied-it-from-someone way but in that we now expect all UI elements to animate smoothly and engagingly and most apps and websites have a similar approach. Overall, this does feel like it rejuvenates the brand and makes it look less like a car connoisseur-only brand to a general consumer looking to buy or sell a car with the least friction possible.

Schools in the United States teach children
from an early age that the first president of the United States was George Washington. But teachers often forget to mention a small,
kind of important detail- George Washington was the first U.S. president under the current
United States Constitution, but he wasn't the country's first president. Before the U.S. Constitution came into being,
the Articles of Confederation served as the glue which held all thirteen states together
as a single country. (See: The Articles of Confederation: The Constitution
Before the Constitution) The Articles went into effect in 1781, and they established
a loose alliance among the states. The Articles also defined the role of Congress
to oversee the national needs, as well as the office of the president. Due to the fear of giving too much power to
one person, the office of president was extremely limited in power and scope, and was not even
a paid position. Rather, the primary roles of the president
at this time were simply to preside over meetings and handle various state correspondence. The president was also the one who signed
official congressional documents. So who were these individuals who served such
a lackluster position as the office of president? John_HansonThe first president of the United
States under the Articles of Confederation was John Hanson from Maryland. His term began in 1781 and ended in 1782. He at first attempted to resign directly after
being elected (with so little power given to the office and no pay to boot, few wanted
the position over political offices in their home states). However, ultimately a quorum could not be
reached to name a successor, so he decided to stay on as president. Being the country's first full-term president
under the Articles of Confederation meant that he oversaw programs that helped to establish
daily life in the new country. For instance, Hanson held the position of
president when the government started on the road to creating what would become the U.S.
Post Office and the National Bank. The government also established a single,
uniform currency throughout the states under his mostly powerless watch. Elias_BoudinotElias Boudinot of New Jersey
became the second president, serving from 1782 until 1783. His presidency coincided with the official
end to the American Revolutionary War. Boudinot presided over the country when the
Treaty of Paris was signed in Paris on September 3, 1783. However, the Treaty of Paris did more than
simply end the war; it required that the United States be recognized as an independent country
and no longer a part of the British Empire. Besides being president, Boudinot was also
noteworthy for his era for advocating for the rights of both Native Americans and black
people, as well as directly sponsoring various youth among these groups so that they could
receive an education. Thomas_MifflinThomas Mifflin became the president
for the term of 1783 until 1784. He oversaw the ratification of the Treaty
of Paris during his presidency. Originally from Pennsylvania, he served under
General George Washington during the Revolutionary War. That former position, and Washington's later
significance as the first president under the U.S. Constitution, made it somewhat ironic
that president Mifflin accepted George Washington's resignation as Commander in Chief. Richard-Henry-LeeRichard Henry Lee of Virginia
served as the country's fourth president from 1784 until 1785. His presidency might have been pretty uneventful,
but his political career afterwards was not. He became a vocal opponent of the now current
U.S. Constitution out of the fear that it would create a centralized government too
similar to the government that the colonies lived under as British citizens. He also hesitated because the document lacked
a Bill of Rights, though many of his later suggestions were incorporated into the United
States Bill of Rights. John-HancockJohn Hancock, most famous for
his large signature on the Declaration of Independence, held the position of the president
from 1785 to 1786. His life in politics began long before the
presidency, and he even helped to fund the American effort during the Revolutionary War. His life in politics continued after his tenure
as president under the Articles of Confederation. He was reelected as Governor of Massachusetts—a
position he resigned due to health before becoming president—and even ran against
George Washington in the first U.S. presidential election under the Constitution. He did not expect to win, but had hoped to
finish second so that he could become vice president. Ultimately that post went to John Adams. Nathaniel_GorhamNathaniel Gorham, also from
Massachusetts, served as the president under the Articles of Confederation from 1786 until
1787. Like many other presidents during the time,
his presidency was simply another item on his long list of political accomplishments. He began his career as a public notary who
quickly won election to the colonial legislature during the Revolutionary War. He served as a member of the legislature,
became a judge even though he lacked legal training, and even attended the Constitutional
Convention where he supported the new U.S. Constitution. As for Gorham's family, his sister was the
wife of John Leighton, an ancestor of the second wife of Theodore Roosevelt, Edith Kermit
Carow Roosevelt. Arthur-St.-ClaireThe seventh president of
the United States was a man from Ohio named Arthur St. Clair. He held the position between 1787 and 1788. He left Congress after finishing his term. He then received the appointment to governor
of the Northwest Territory, a position where he often faced off with the Native Americans
who claimed they, in fact, owned the land. Despite once being enormously wealthy, St.
Clair ultimately died poor, with much of his wealth used to support the American Revolution
and young government. Late in life, he gave away the little money
that remained of his once vast fortune. Cyrus-GriffinCyrus Griffin of Virginia had
a background in law before he became the eighth and final president of the United States under
the Articles of Confederation. He helped to put the country's new judicial
system on the path to becoming what we know today as the modern American court system
during his work at the Court of Appeals in Cases of Capture. He continued to contribute to the new country's
court system after his presidency when he went on to become a judge with the District
Court of Virginia. There were also presidents before the presidents
under the ratified Articles of Confederation. These were Peyton Randolph, who served from
1774-1775 before taking a leave due to poor health; Henry Middleton, who served in Randolph's
absence; John Hancock, who served for two years at this point (and would later serve
again, as noted above); Henry Laurens who ultimately resigned over a controversy concerning
diplomat Silas Deane; John Jay, who also served as Chief Justice of the New York Supreme Court
at the same time he held the office of president; Samuel Huntington, who ultimately resigned
due to health problems (including smallpox), but has the distinction of being the president
when the Articles of Confederation were finally ratified; Samuel Johnston, who refused the
office of the president when elected; and Thomas McKean, who ultimately resigned after
the British surrender at Yorktown. McKean is notable as being the first president
elected after the ratification of the Articles of Confederation, but is generally not considered
the first president due to failing to serve a full year term as specified under the Articles
of Confederation. (McKean only served for three months.) A few weeks after his resignation, in November
of 1781, Congress met as specified in the Articles of Confederation ("the first Monday
in November"), with John Hanson being elected president. John Hanson's grandfather paid his way to
America from England by becoming an indentured servant in the mid-17th century. By Hanson's time, the family had rose significantly
in wealth, allowing Hanson to help fund the revolution both via general fundraising and
often paying soldiers out of his own pocket.

T-Mobile isn't just giving away Netflix subscriptions to family accounts, it's also practically giving away ZTE's first Android Wear smartwatch "for a limited time."
The Bluetooth-only Quartz, which runs Wear 2.0, usually runs for $192 or $8 per month for 24 months. But if you enter into an EIP now, you'll get a $6 bill credit every month, effectively making the device itself just $48. If you want to break out of T-Mobile service, you'll pay the remaining balance of the full price.
You'll need to get cellular service with the device to take advantage of the deal and that requires a phone line. If you have T-Mobile ONE and enroll in AutoPay, the service is just $10 per month.

Jamshed AvariDec 29, 2012 09:14:42 IST
In the past 12 months we've seen a few innovative products that have turned science fiction concepts into reality, as well as the introduction of entirely new generations of tech that will shape the future. Some of these products are evolutions of previous ones, while others came as complete surprises. Here are our picks for the most significant tech innovations of 2012, and why we're excited about what they mean for the future.
Epson Moverio
Epson Moverio BT-100
The Moverio isn't just a personal movie screen that sits on your nose instead of on a wall. It can play 3D videos with virtual surround sound and even run Android apps and games with a hand-held controller. Best of all, it isn't completely opaque so you stay aware of your surroundings. You can watch movies in complete privacy even on airplanes and in bed at night. It's a first-gen product, so it's a bit bulky and has limited connectivity, but Epson is trying to build a community of developers around it to harness the potential for augmented reality applications that project information into your field of view while you're working, so you could potentially pull up engineering schematics or test records while examining a machine, or overlay virtual furniture on the floor of a bare construction site. With nearly unlimited potential ahead of it, the Moverio was one of our favourite products to review in 2012.
Wii U
Nintendo Wii U
Nintendo decided not to compete with the Xbox 360 and PS3's high-def graphics and instead took the world by storm with the unique, affordable, family-friendly Wii, effectively turning everyone's expectations of what a game console should be upside down. Its successor, the Wii U, expands on that formula with decidedly non-cutting-edge hardware but a funky controller called the GamePad with an enormous touchscreen that either augments or replaces your TV. There's no standard way for games to make use of the touchscreen; early games use it to select inventory items and see statistics or swipe and scribble to control characters. Some games need you to twist the entire GamePad like a steering wheel, blow into its mic, or make facial expressions for the camera to pick up. Not all games make use of the GamePad, but the ones that do make the Wii U a fun, engaging, and totally innovative product.
Google Now
Google Now
Google has pretty much set the standard when it comes to data retrieval on the Web, but the new frontier is your personal information. The search giant has tied a lot of its properties together with Google Now, an intelligent voice-enabled assistant that not only knows where you are and what you're doing, but can also anticipate what you want to know. Google Now debuted with Android 4.1 this July and has been expanded since then. Using your phone's GPS, your email and calendar, it can show you things you need before you knew you needed them. Examples include reminders, traffic on your commute route, sports scores for matches you're interested in, flight delay information, events you've bought tickets for, events nearby, related searches, and local recommendations. Everything's accessible with just a flick on your Android homescreen.
Intel NUC
Intel Next Unit of Computing
It's a tiny four-inch-square box with enough horsepower to knock the the tower right off your desktop. While the size comes at the cost of some features and space for a standard SSD, it's a sign of things to come. The NUC is basically an Ultrabook in a box without the screen, keyboard and trackpad, so you get the latest-gen hardware with all its power-saving refinements as well as Thunderbolt for external dongles and adapters. It could serve quite handily as an HTPC in your living room and is also unobtrusive enough to find place in a kitchen or bedroom. It's also attractive for business applications, kiosks and smart displays. Intel will be selling these directly to consumers, though the price doesn't include RAM, SSD or Wi-Fi adapter. We hope other manufacturers build on this platform and offer products with different configurations for different needs.
Honourable mentions
Ultra HD TVs and projectors
2012 saw the launch of actual consumer TVs and projectors with 4K resolution (3840x2160), which is HD doubled in height and width. It makes most sense for displays larger than 60 inches since even HD begins looking bad when it's blown up beyond that size. We had the pleasure of testing the LG 84LM9600, a behemoth that needed six people to get it out of its box. The effect was absolutely beyond compare. UHD will eventually make its way to smaller screens, making movies and TV sharper and more vivid than they've ever been.
Dell XPS 12
Hybrid Ultrabooks
Reductions in power consumption and the touch-friendly Windows 8 have allowed manufacturers to experiment with unique shapes and designs for laptops with the goal of offering the best of laptops and tablets in a single package. We've seen sliders, twisters, benders, flippers and all manner of contortionists at trade shows and previews, and are excited get our hands on them in our own lab now. Our favourites include the Dell XPS 12 and Lenovo Ideabook Yoga.
Microsoft Surface covers
Microsoft Surface Touch and Type Covers
When Microsoft announced its plan to launch tablet devices running Windows 8 and RT, the obvious question on everyone's minds was how they would position the products as superior to the iPad. Software aside, there's only so much you can do with a glass and metal rectangle. That's why the Touch and Type covers came as a breath of fresh air and gave people confidence in Microsoft's ability to innovate. You can choose between the light, flexible Touch cover with virtual buttons and trackpad embedded in its fabric, or the more solid Type cover with comfortable mechanical keys.
Samsung Galaxy Camera
Samsung Galaxy Camera
This product didn't get it quite right, but deserves a mention in our list of innovations anyway. Samsung tried jamming the internals of a smartphone into a compact camera's body in order to give users the power of Android apps and 3D connectivity. Sadly, the pictures it takes just aren't all that good, and the end result is too bulky and expensive to live up to that promise. Full marks for trying, though, and we're looking forward to version 2.0.
Windows 8 UI
Windows 8 Modern UI
This one had us on the fence. It's wildly innovative and disruptive, but the fact is there are a lot of people who just don't like what Windows has become. We found ourselves wishing for a way to turn it off altogether when we tried Windows 8 on a desktop, but tablet and touchscreen laptop users seem not to mind having the tiled interface and apps around. The Windows Store has filled up considerably over the last few months, so we might give it another try too.

Hanna wished to go to Hawaii.
Knowing that Hanna was going to get a wish became our beacon of hope.
Kelly, wish mom
Hawaii is known as a restorative place full of joy, relaxation and endless sun, but for wish recipient Hanna it is much more than that. Her wish trip to Hawaii gave her something to look forward to during the darkest times of her life.
At just 13 years old, this typical teen had to put her life on hold when she was diagnosed with leukemia.
She spent nine months in and out of the hospital undergoing weekly chemotherapy treatments that frequently brought on fevers and a myriad of other side effects. Life, for both Hanna and her family, was extremely difficult, uncertain and stressful. What they all needed was a little hope.
That hope came thanks to you, in the generous form of a wish.
"Knowing that Hanna was going to get a wish became our beacon of hope," said Hanna's mom, Kelly.
"I wish and hope that the people who are donating their money and airline miles understand how amazing this is for families," said Kelly. "What they are doing for other people is really impacting other people in a real way in a big way."
In Hawaii, Hanna left the memories of the hospital behind. She went paddle-boarding, snorkeling and swam with dolphins. She even explored the volcanos and lava tubes.
But most importantly, Hanna found joy when she needed it most.
"Wishes are needed. They are important," said Hanna. "Children and their families and happiness are very important, and that's what Make-A-Wish did for me and my family. We got to be happy again."
And, that happiness continues. "Our entire family gets to relive the incredible joy that the wish brought to us. It wasn't just five days while we were in Hawaii, the wish remains constant," Kelly said.
Now 15, Hanna is back in school and helps other kids going through treatment at the hospital. Through this experience, she's decided she wants to be an oncologist someday, so that she can continue to help other kids with cancer.
You can help make wishes like Hanna's come true when you donate your unused airline miles. Donate today!
Children and their families and happiness are very important, and that's what Make-A-Wish did for me and my family. We got to be happy again.

What does Dreaming about Pigeons Mean
Some consider pigeons to be little more than flying rats. They are seen as just as filthy and will recoil in horror if their waste covered wings fly anywhere near them. On the other side, some people seem just as happy to stand in a throng of the winged creatures and feed them crusts until the cows come home. Still others like to collect them and keep them as pets or even as trained messenger pigeons. In this respect, pigeons have a noble heritage. All this goes to show that pigeons, like dreams, are open to interpretation. Pigeons in your dreams don't matter as much as how you feel about pigeons in your dreams. This is why oneHOWTO is here to look at some possible interpretations so you can know what it means to dream of pigeons.
Dreaming of pigeons can mean good times in our sentimental, family or working life. Likewise, they may also bring an implicit message of reconciliation with someone who you haven't spoken to in years. If you dream that a pigeon comes flying towards you, this could mean this loving family member has good news for you. This could even be an unexpected arrival, especially if it actually lands near you.
Dreaming of flying pigeons means that you will receive important news soon. If the flying pigeon in your dream is tired, it could mean that the message comes from someone who is far away. This might be a relative or friend living in another city or country. If you are trying to catch the pigeon and fail to do so, this may mean there is an underlying frustration that is affecting close relationships.
Dreaming of peaceful pigeons in their nest is a sign of loyalty, both for couples and friends. It is a very positive dream, it means that the dreamer is surrounded by good people who respect and love them. If the pigeon also has chicks, then this may represent protection you find necessary in a male party of your family or close friends.
The colour of the pigeons is quite important because they do not always mean the same thing. White doves are a symbol of peace and unity. However, black pigeons are thought to bring sorrow and misfortunes. Also, dreaming of red pigeons can be seem like an omen of tragedy, war or disaster. Remember, however, that it is just a dream. You are not an oracle, rather you are simply worried about the future and are considering where you're going in life.
If you dream of the slow and low murmur of a pigeon you must be vigilant, because it might signify problems. If you have a sick family member it may be associated with their condition worsening. If you don't like the feeling of the pigeon being there, it may mean you feel the blame for an action that has also occurred. The pigeon in your dream is a nagging reminder; something which is always there, but not always obvious. We accept them as part of our lives, but perhaps we should be doing something about them.
If a spouse dreams of a dead pigeon, it means that you could fear separation from your partner, either temporarily or permanently. This could be due to problems of infidelity or simply because you are lacking confidence in the relationship. However, if it is you who is killing the pigeon, this is thought to represent change and marriage.
If on your dream your trying to catch the pigeon, it could mean that you will receive affection from your partner.
If you end up catching the pigeon it means that you desire a successful relationship with your partner. If, on the contrary, you don't catch the pigeon this is a sign of frustration. This could mean that you and your partner will break up due to incompatibility.
If you dream about a pigeon sitting on your hand it can mean full trust of your loved one. If you have been doubting your other half, then this might be the reassurance you need that there is nothing to worry about.
The color of the pigeon may also have meaning. For example, if the pigeon in your dream is black, then this might represent confusion and possible misunderstanding. This might even be with those that you appreciate the most. You may be doubting whether you are compatible or not with somebody else.
Is the pigeon green? Then you may want to forgive someone who has treated you bad in the past. Maybe it's time to make amends and forget about past quarrels.
If you dream of a white pigeon, this might be linked to your spirituality. You are living a moment of fulfilment, you are getting to know yourself a lot better and can soon feel at peace.

Performance Auditing
Contributing to Accountability in Democratic Government
Edited by Jeremy Lonsdale, Peter Wilkins and Tom Ling
Chapter 5: The Right Tools for the Job? Methods, Choice and Context
Jeremy Lonsdale
Jeremy Lonsdale Audit is an evidence-based activity. As Flint (1988) puts it 'In no case can an auditor express an opinion or make a report without making an investigation and obtaining evidence.' Thus, audit work is directed at gathering the evidence to enable the auditor to form a judgement that can be reported; if 'there is no evidence an audit is not possible' (Flint, 1988). The methods used by auditors determine what evidence they uncover, what analysis they can undertake and ultimately what conclusions and recommendations they are able to produce. They are thus fundamental to the value of performance audit work. This chapter considers the choice of methods used by performance auditors at the National Audit Office (NAO) in the United Kingdom. It does so by looking back at developments over a 20-year period, during which time performance audit (known as value for money audit in the United Kingdom) has changed considerably. The starting point for this chapter is the view that a key determinant in the choice of methods in activities such as audit or evaluation is the context in which the work is done. The introductory material for the 2009 American Evaluation Association conference stated: context [refers] to the setting (time and place) and broader environment in which the focus of the evaluation (evaluand) is located. Context can also refer to the historical context of the problem or phenomenon that the program or policy targets as well as the policy and decision-making context enveloping the evaluation.

Andy Griffith 1926-2012
Andy Griffith was the multiple award-winning and nominated star of television, film, stage and song. The actor, writer, director, producer, comedian, musician and singer passed away this morning in North Carolina. He was 86.
Back in my preschool days, "The Andy Griffith Show" was my favorite show, second only to "Batman." The opening of the program with Andy and his son Opie, played by Ronny Howard, going fishing and walking in the woods reminded me of my father and me. Especially the bit with that kid throwing rocks. I was that annoying kid throwing rocks whenever we went fishing or went for walks in the woods. My imaginary friend was even named 'Opie.' Hey, stop judging. I never said I was a bright kid. The point is, from an early age, "The Andy Griffith Show" and its spin-offs were a family tradition.
Just as I watched little Opie grow into Richie Cunningham and later a successful director, I also watched Andy in the largely forgotten but also fondly remembered ABC series "Salvage 1," and later on the more palatable "Matlock." When my brother-in-law gave me all his 45 RPM records (for the kids out there, think single MP3 iTunes purchases, only round and on vinyl), I discovered another facet of Andy Griffith with his down home comedy spoken word hit, "What It Was, Was Football."
As an adult I discovered how his humor led to Andy's role on the stage and then in film with No Time for Sergeants. The film not only firmly established his persona for the next few decades but also was the direct inspiration for later television spin-off "Gomer Pyle, USMC." Andy also did a flick at this time called Onionhead, that was so bad, he stopped doing movies.
However, before that, he made the film that for me, earns Andy Griffith the most respect. 1957's A Face in the Crowd, written by Budd Schulberg and directed by Elia Kazan, is one of my favorite films, easily in my top five, and Andy Griffith, as the charismatic but evil entertainer Lonesome Rhodes, is the star. This is an acting tour de force, and Griffith is a whirlwind. If you have not seen this phenomenal drama, I can't recommend it enough.
We have lost not only one of our most beloved television icons, but also a visionary in the way TV is done, as well as one of America's greatest actors and comedians. Rest in peace, Andy, we will miss you.

A Video Introduction
What is expected of a Mentee?
As a prospective Mentee, if you have not already made contact through family or friends, you will be introduced to the Honourable Company and invited to contact a Master Mariner who may act as your "Master" in the scheme. As far as possible your Master will have a special shared interest with you in terms of ship types and trades, friends or area of residence.
You will be "bound" to your Master (a Liveryman of the Honourable Company) through a traditional City of London indenture which has full Guildhall recognition, allowing entry to the Freedom and Livery in due course "by Apprenticeship". You will find the ancient wording of the "Indenture" rather old-fashioned and quaint, but that is because it is linked back to the London Craft Guilds of the Middle Ages.
Up to the time of obtaining your OOW certificate of competency, you will be asked to agree to:
- Keep a journal recording observations on professional topics (at least one entry per week)
- Write to your Master at least once every six months, and
- Visit "Wellington" if leave periods allow
Note: Entry into the Honourable Company Essay Competition each year is voluntary. A prize will be awarded for the winning entry.
From OOW through to Masters you will be expected to:
- Continue to keep a journal
- Enter the annual essay (or other project) competition

"We ordered a Rafters table and custom chairs from Anne Quinn after making the rounds at different big chain and higher end furniture stores. So glad we stumbled upon Anne Quinn online. They helped make the process of selecting the right table and chairs stress-free. Prices were reasonable for solid wood furniture in comparison to what we saw elsewhere for lower quality. We only waited about 6 weeks for our order to arrive. They delivered everything on time. We were more than thrilled with how beautiful the furniture turned out. Simply stunning! Would not hesitate to order again or recommend to others."
"We are so happy we came across Anne-Quinn Furniture in our search for a custom kitchen table. Christine was friendly, patient and extremely helpful in assisting us with choosing the right colour, style, texture, and size for our table. She was so helpful and informative when describing to us the different woods and textures that were available to us. We were warmly welcome into their beautiful historic home turned showroom and we felt very comfortable through out the ordering process. Our table was ready and on time. Brian was great with the delivery and set-up. We would purchase from them again with out a doubt. They are both very pleasant, honest, and genuine business owners. We could not be happier with our table, it completely exceeded what we were expecting! Please see the attached photos ***the chairs were purchased separately***"
Anne-Quinn Furniture is a fantastic supplier of unique, well made, and absolutely beautiful hand crafted furniture! We are so thrilled to have found this company online, and just received our Canadian custom made solid wood furniture for our kitchen. Working with Anne Quinn from day one was a great experience. They took the time to listen to what we were looking for, were patient during multiple appointments, offered us a variety of different options, and then allowed us to truly customize every piece exactly how we wanted them. They were both meticulous in capturing all of the design details and the end result is a gorgeous table that will not only last us a lifetime, but will also look fabulous at the same time. Worth every penny and well worth the wait. Thank you Brian and Christine for helping us get our dream and designer furniture! We LOVE everything!
Thank you Anne Quinn for the beautiful new dining room table and chairs we ordered for our condo. You are both so pleasant to deal with and I truly appreciated your patience with the delivery. I will be sure to pass along your names to my friends as there isn't a better "deal in town"!
"I searched around for a long time unable to find a bedroom set I really liked. Everything out there was veneer or particle board. And nothing really fit my space or was a style I liked. Then I found Anne-Quinn Furniture. Everything they make is solid mahogany, and I was able to change the design and the dimensions to suit me. I loved their customer service. They are really good people and stand behind their products. Check them out; you won't be disappointed."
"The dining set I ordered from Anne Quinn has become the focal point of my house, and the envy of my guests. I designed my dining room around it, and it gets my heart racing every time I see it! I just can't wait to order my kitchen dinette set from Anne Quinn!"
We wanted high quality real wood furniture with a timeless look for our modern home. From beginning to end our experience with Anne-Quinn furniture was exceptional. They worked with us to find the perfect pieces for our home, and personally came to ensure the pieces were properly assembled. Their prices are very reasonable and the furniture is superior to anything else we've seen. Thank you Anne-Quinn!
"I heard about Anne Quinn Furniture from a friend. A recommendation always increases the trust level.
What I found out during my research kept me away from the usual places. I didn't buy from the chain stores because their price/quality doesn't make sense. The retailers have huge markups because of their overhead and you never really find exactly what you want or know quite what the quality is like. Also customization is not an option at all.
Typical sizes wouldn't fit or would take over the space. We needed to customize.
Our visit to your home showroom was fun. We got the see the furniture in a home setting, and we got all our questions answered about the process.
Houzz, Pinterest, Google let you crowd source options and ideas. You can take those ideas and replicate them to fit your space perfectly. It's an amazing experience.
Now that they are here, they look incredible. I'm thrilled with it all: the style, and the quality construction. Everything I dreamed of has become reality.
I absolutely recommend Anne Quinn Furniture. "
"I was looking for bedroom furniture and I decided to visit all those big named stores–Pottery Barn, Restoration Hardware, Decorium, and so on.
I picked out a Hudson bed design from Pottery Barn, but saw that price was just too high. I searched the Kijiji website, hoping that someone was selling a bedroom set, and that's how I found you guys. It was a great day!
Christine was fabulous. She was simply a delight to deal with, very open and honest. I always felt in the loop, I knew what was going on. She sent me pictures, which brought the experience to life.
I love my new bedroom set. It is stunning! The real wood design sets it apart, and knowing I didn't clean out my bank account makes it worthwhile.
You are my go-to people when it comes to furniture, and yes, I tell everyone about you! You guys are great!"

Lessons from the Equifax Breach – IT SECURITY GURU
When we see a car wreck it's very easy to slow down and gawk. The first thing we think is "Wow, that's awful," quickly followed by "Whew… glad that wasn't me," and then we drive on. Most of us don't spend time thinking about how the wreck happened — we were just glad it wasn't us.
A similar sentiment works in cyber security. But instead of focusing on the wreck, the rest of us responsible and accountable for information security must learn and adapt from every attack.

Nothing can ruin a fun day out on the trails like a snowmobile that just won't braaap. The best way to deal with breakdowns is to never have them in the first place, and the best way to do that is to give your sled a good pre-season checkup.
When and How to Service Your Sled
The best time to service your sled is actually before you put it to bed for the summer, according to Snoriders. If you didn't do that, you'll want to be sure to give it a good checkup before you go out for your first ride—the sooner the better.
If you're going to have a dealer perform your tuneup, be sure to book early because appointment slots can fill quickly. But when should you take it to a dealer rather than doing it yourself? You can probably perform most of the basic work and checks yourself, but if you do find problems, you may want to leave those to the professionals—especially if you don't feel 100% comfortable working on your snowmobile. You may end up saving money now by trying to do it yourself, but it could cost you more in the end.
The Checklist
Snowmobiles are complicated machines, so there are a number of things you will want to check and services you'll want to perform on your snowmobile before you hit the trails this winter.
Meterologist and snowmobile enthusiast Darrin Harr notes on his snowmobile blog that the rear-end suspension takes the most abuse on a sled and is therefore the most likely area for problems to occur. He therefore recommends looking especially closely at that area with a flashlight and mirror.
Other Precautions
Of course, even with the most meticulous pre-season maintenance, trouble can occur. That's why you should pack some extra supplies, such as a spare drive belt, extra spark plugs and a snowmobile tool kit.
And as always, you want to make sure that help is never far away. The best rule of thumb is to never go riding alone, which also is helpful in case of an accident or injury. Be sure you have mobile devices charged and consider GPS units and satellite phones.
Don't let mechanical issues ruin your winter fun. Give your sled a little TLC now so it will braap strong all winter long.

Happy December! Welcome to the darkest time of the year if you're with us in the Northern Hemisphere. December brings with it many celebrations, opportunities for light within the darkness, and (hopefully!) time for reflection and quiet. To celebrate the deep dark things in life our monthly focus at Watershed Wellness will be on the core: finding strength and stability from within to support on the outside.
When you think about core, you might imagine someone with six pack abs. Many commonly think only of the superficial abdominal muscles as being the whole of the core. A broader, more realistic definition of the core would include discussion of up to 40 different muscles. Your abdominals certainly play a role in core stability, but the deeper muscles provide a stability that is essential.
The core muscles are the structures of the body that tie everything together in movement.
They help you sit up straight without pain. They help mitigate lower back pain. They help you find better balance in your body.
The muscles that stabilize your core include:
- abdominal muscles: rectus abdominus, internal and external obliques, and the transverse abdominus
- the muscles that help to stabilize your shoulder blades
- pelvic floor muscles
- psoas
- the muscles that support your spine
- the diaphragm
- your back muscles
Functions of the core include:
- stabilizing the legs and hips
- supporting the lower spine from the front of the body
- surrounding and shaping the abdomen
- stabilizing the chest with breath
- balancing and stabilizing your neck and head
When your core muscles aren't working properly the function of the core (stabilizing) is transferred to other parts of the body. This can create less elegance and grace in movement and function, and more strain to the joints that can, over time, lead to injury and degeneration.
It is also worth mentioning that the word "core" can elicit mixed feelings for many people.
It's an area that many of us want to ignore or pretend it doesn't exist because we think it's too big, too weak, or flawed in some way. It's also one of the most vulnerable spots of the body, housing the abdominal organs. It is our hope that by having an added understanding of what this area of our bodies is comprised of, and how it functions for us, we can have a better relationship with it.
Throughout December we'll be focusing on these deeper muscles intending to create strength and warmth from within.
We'll work with poses that are as simple as cat/cow to as complex as handstand and arm balances. Bringing awareness to these often sleepy areas of the body you'll leave December feeling more stable, graceful, warm and supported from the inside out./?php // If comments are open or we have at least one comment, load up the comment template //if ( comments_open() || '0' != get_comments_number() ) : // comments_template(); //endif; //?>

Platelets not only save us from bleeding to death, but in recent years, platelets have also displayed powers no one imagined they had. They are healers that pour out growth factors and other soothing molecules that help damaged tissue rebuild. They are soldiers that spark the protective response known as inflammation, alert immune cells, and even attack microbial interlopers. They are long-haul truckers that pick up and deliver chemicals such as serotonin, which helps the liver regenerate after injury. They are even engineers, shaping the vascular system in newborns. Additional platelet functions continue to come to light, and biologists have just described a novel way that the body might make these multitalented cells—a finding that could one day ease the demand for donated blood.

A major, weekslong highway closure is less than a month away, and the Virginia Department of Transportation wants drivers to plan ahead.
A crash-prone stretch of U.S. Route 29 between Warrenton, Virginia, and Gainesville, Virginia, will be closed near Vint Hill Road beginning around noon on July 8. The closure of the northbound lanes could last through early August.
The southbound lanes, and the Vint Hill Road intersection, will remain open.
Northbound long-distance drivers will be directed toward U.S. Route 17 and Interstate 66, from Warrenton to Marshall, for up to three weeks while the northbound lanes are regraded and rebuilt. Local traffic will be detoured onto Route 605.
"This is the top-identified safety improvement needed in VDOT's Culpeper district," said VDOT spokesman Lou Hatter.
The work will be focused on a hilly portion of the northbound lanes between a small run near Riley Road and the Vint Hill Road (Route 215) intersection, where more than 100 crashes have occurred since 2013.
"The problem we've had is there are several hills on the approach to that intersection that limit the sight distance for drivers as they're heading north toward Prince William County," Hatter said.
The vertical profile of northbound Route 29 near Vint Hill Road provides sight distance for an equivalent 35 mph design speed, well below the 60 mph design speed of the corridor, VDOT said in a press release.
Chemung Contracting was awarded the $3.5 million design-build contract by the Commonwealth Transportation Board earlier this year. Hatter said the contractor's expertise with quarry operations and monetary incentives means that the closure could lift sooner than the Aug. 2 deadline.
"They have a lot of experience with rock removal, and demolition, and the kind of excavation work that is going to be done out there," Hatter said.
Site preparation on the median strip began last week. Periodic single lane closures will occur during off-peak hours until the full northbound closure in next month.
Access to private driveways will be maintained through the closure.
A public meeting where residents can learn more about the project is scheduled for Tuesday evening from 6-8 p.m. in Warrenton.
Approximately 50,000 vehicles use this section of the corridor every day, including significant commercial truck traffic. The project was timed to coincide with summer vacation, so as not to interfere with school bus routes.

Taking action
In this learning path, learners:
- Reflect on what it means to take action.
- Consider how human rights are relevant to their lives, both as a basis / justification for taking action and for understanding that human rights as they are written and upheld are a result of taking action.
- Gain an understanding of the relationship between human rights and taking action.
- Analyse three cases of discrimination involving young people whose rights were fought for and upheld at the European Court of Human Rights.
- Are inspired by examples of young people鈥檚 different ways of taking action against discrimination to discuss what they themselves might do.
- Find information and a plan that they can use to prepare their own action.
Go to the learning path Taking action
Download the educators麓 guide
This includes tips and extra information per track
This learning path consists of three tracks (lessons) each with a number of steps.
Track 1: Learners explore social engagement and listen to two people who took action after an antisemitic attach on a synagogue in Copenhagen in 2015. They consider reasons for and against taking action in situations involving discrimination.
Track 2: Learners reflect on the way human rights affect their own lives and those of others. They work with one of three cases that were taken to the European Court of Human Rights and consider the actors in the cases.
Track 3: Learners listen to five young people who took action. They then consider different forms of taking action and work in small groups on an example of discrimination and action. The last step prepares leaners to develop their own action plan.
Learners require approximately 50 minutes for track 1, 100 minutes for track 2 and 50 minutes for track 3, plus additional time if they are to plan and execute their own action.

Always a beautiful bouquet, fair prices too. Good variety of flowers, not the most abundant, but always seem fresh and the flowers last well over a week every time. Staff is nice and knowledgeable.

I had a great ( made very easy ) experience at Flowers by Matthew. I selected my flowers online , on Matthews website, I called and ordered over the phone. The flowers were lovely and it was delivered in plenty of time for the wake.
Love them I have been using them for over 15 years. I am in Dallas and I still call them now for deliveries to my friends and family in NY.
Very helpful - called in an order for a $40 birthday bouquet and it was ready in under an hour. Wife LOVED the flowers. 8 days later, and most are in perfect shape. They were definitely fresh, high quality flowers.
I regularly order flowers from Matthew and the flowers are always top quality and the bouquets are lovely. They are by far the best flower shop in the area. I would highly recommend this shop

Toyota, auto manufacturing company, is now looking ahead to help the disable and old age people. The Toyota Motors is going to spend 1 billion dollars in order to develop Human Support Robot (HSR)-a robot for elderly. The robot is designed to assist the sick and people in wheelchair by helping to pick and carry objects.
Kouichi lkeda, engineer at Toyota, says; its challenging to bow down and grab things for people having weakness in spinal cord and we are going to provide them a helper a their home. People feel easy in asking a robot to do a job for them instead of a human assistant, he added. Such a robot is also ideal to switch the use of service dogs which are specially trained to help disable people, he said.
According to the researchers in the next 10 years approximately 60% of the world population would be over 60 years old and they will need artificial intelligence and helping robots for their daily life like carrying objects and driving etc.
In comparison with other robots HSR seems compact but it is extendable. The robot has height ranging from 3ft to approximately 5ft with approximately 14.5 inch diameter and it has several cameras on it along with sensors on its body.
HSR weighs about 70lb and is able to pick up 3 pounds. It has a maximum speed of 2 miles per hour and can easily turn in all directions.
The interaction between human and the robot is obvious. So conscious manufacturing and durable design was first priority to avoid any accident. The slow movement and sensors on its body make HSR reliable to operate without collision
The device can be controlled with the help of voice or any touch screen interface including your smartphone and tablet.
The only arm of HSR has a gripper at its end which enables it to pick up small objects like TV remote, water bottle, pen etc. for you. To carry thin objects like needle or paper, the gripper has a vacuum sucker which lifts such thing easily.
HSR can retrieve things for you. Just give a command via voice or touch interface and it will retrieve objects from the desired place like shelves and boxes.

text: How Does an Air Conditioner Work? Posted July 18, 2016 The temperatures are climbing to record highs across the states and the majority of homes are running some variety of air conditioner to battle the summer heat. Though we are all appreciative that your air conditioner runs, the team at 1st Choice Heating & Air Conditioning, Inc. in Lake Forest thought they would give you a glance at how an air conditioner operates. The Basics There's a lot of science regarding keeping your house cooler. Your air conditioner operates in a comparable way to your refrigerator, but your cooling system has a larger responsibility to tackle. Both your fridge and AC cool with a consistent loop of refrigerant, with your AC this refrigerant loops from inside to to the external part of your home. This refrigerant effortlessly converts from a liquid to gas and back to a liquid again. It flows into your residence as a sub-cooled liquid and as it evaporates it absorbs heat from your indoor air and reverts back into vapor. This vapor then travels back to your outdoor unit where the heat is released and is then condensed back into a sub-cooled liquid. Four Components There are 4 central elements to your AC system: a compressor, an evaporator coil, the condensing coil and an expansion valve. The evaporator coil is the place your refrigerant evaporates from a sub-cooled liquid into a super-heated vapor. This component can be located in the home, in your garage or sometimes in your attic. Warm air passes across the cold evaporator coil and the heat is removed from the air. This cooled air is then sent throughout the space inside your home. Your compressor sits in your outdoor condensing unit. The super-heated vapor from your evaporator coil goes into the compressor which surges the pressure of the vapor until it is transformed into hot, high pressure vapor. The hot vapor then moves back into the condenser coil where less hot outdoor air moves across the coil, heat is pushed outdoors and the refrigerant is changed back into a sub-cooled liquid. The sub-cooled liquid returns to the indoor evaporator coil through an expansion valve or metering device. This process is continually repeated. That completes your physics lesson of the day…your air conditioner operates on an relentless loop of science. We understand that it's not as crucial to you how it works, but that it's working. If you'd like to discuss staying cool and comfortable in Lake Forest contact us at 949-204-0859. You'll be able to get through this hot weather thanks to science and the support from our experts.

company's legal department one of the
most innovative he's worked with.
"They are by no means a run ofthe mill legal department," Pile says."When you pick up a First Data legaldocument, it's short and user-friendly. Itsends a message that this is a companythat is easy to work with."Pile says his colleagues who serve asoutside counsel and the parties on theother side of the table have taken noticeof the difference in First Data's docu-ments. He says they have been receptivebut, at first, "it can be a pretty radicalchange."Phil Pastreich, an associate GC whoworks within First Data's business sideof the legal department, says anothertime-saver is the department's one-redline review rule.
It doesn't happen every single time,but "it's a goal," he says. "Even if it's notone redline every time, it's at least fewerthan we had before."The purpose of this, Rosman adds, is"we try to minimize the back and forthbetween the legal department and otherlawyers. No lawyer has ever convincedanother lawyer of anything. So we tryto minimize that and try to bring abusiness-friendly approach to our legalcolleagues on the other side by havingone redline. Let's get the issues out onthe table."
It's these types of efficiencies that allow
First Data to operate with a fairly lean
legal department for a company of its
size. Despite an IPO and growth in
revenue in the past two years, Rosman's department is operating with
fewer legal professionals than when he
"It's not like I said, 'Hey, we need
30 more people because we're a public
company,'" Rosman says.
Take litigation, for instance. Thecompany has an in-house lawyer, RalphShalom, who oversees three other liti-gators. They turn to outside counselto help with many lawsuits because, asRosman puts it, "if you can handle all ofyour litigation in-house, you've got toomany lawyers."The way Rosman views his depart-ment, "you always want to be at thepoint where the business says 'we needone more, or two more.' So you canadjust well to that request. You don'twant to have too many lawyers becausethat's over capacity and you don't wantto be six or seven behind. You want tobe just at the point where you're linedup well with the business so you can flexas the business flexes."When Rosman does ask to hire moreattorneys or legal support staff, it helpsfor him to be able to justify the legaldepartment's position with the busi-ness side. One way he does that is byflipping on its head the notion that thelegal department is a cost center. Howdo you do that? Well, in the past year,First Data's lawyers ramped up effortsto make more money from their licens-ing agreements.
Shalom was part of the team thatchanged how the company licensedsoftware for its payment solutions soft-ware VisionPlus, which is used by morethan 200 banks and retailers globally.
In 2015, First Data's lawyers coordinated with its VisionPlus business
employees to step up efforts to audit
license holders, a right given to the
company in its license agreements
to ensure the software is being used
properly by the correct people who are
The audits revealed there were some
cases of misuse, and the next year, First
Data's lawyers completed 17 audits that
resulted in the collection of more than
$42 million in unpaid license fees.
"We look at our IP and we look for
opportunities," Rosman says. "We make
sure we're defending ourselves and we
look for opportunities to help the company by making money."
First Data's lawyers look beyond their
own company. They put significant
time and effort into satisfying business
partners, clients and customers.
This mission is what drove Rosman
and a handful of other lawyers and government affairs professionals to push
for regulatory change in Washington,
A few years ago, consumers began
seeing changes at checkout lines when
they pulled out their cards to pay.
When stores starting asking customers
to "please insert the chip" rather than
"swipe your card," First Data noticed
some issues.
Customers were seeing new options
other than just "debit" or "credit," and
First Data's legal team found this problematic because it led to consumer confusion, but, perhaps, more importantly,
they thought it went against the Dodd-Frank Financial Reform Act's Durbin
As Rosman describes the updated
screens, "it would say things like U.S.
debit or Mastercard debit or Visa debit
or something else like that, and it was
confusing to people because people had
never understood what U.S. debit was."
(First Data owns the Star debit network,
which is one of the networks included
under the "U.S. debit" umbrella.)

Several thousand opposition supporters gathered to protest against what they see as attempts by President Vladimir Putin to stifle democracy.
They broke through a police cordon and marched down Nevsky Prospekt, the city's main street, shouting "freedom!" and slogans hostile to Mr Putin.
The organisers say police beat demonstrators with batons and made a number of arrests.
The event - entitled "the march of the dissenters" - was organised by opposition leaders, including former Prime Minister Mikhail Kasyanov and chess champion Gary Kasparov.
They accuse the Kremlin of using its power to silence the opposition in advance of local and parliamentary elections.
Mr Kasparov said about 5,000 people took part in the march and called it a "major success".
Officials say between 2,000 and 3,000 took part and several dozen were detained.
The constitution requires Mr Putin to step down after his second term in 2008. Critics accuse him of trying to manage victory for a successor of his choosing.

After weeks of waiting, I finally got my copy of The Organized and Inspired Scrapbooker. I've seen this in my magazines and I just had to get myself a copy. Why? I'm renovating my scrap space this summer!!! Actually, we're doing the kitchen first and my scrap corner second. Those are my favorite spaces at home. If our budget would still allow it, we'll throw in the den as well. Anyway, I need ideas for my scrap corner and THIS is the solution! Good thing Bookoto.com made book shopping so EASY for me. I also like that they have an option to pay through credit card or through bank deposits. The service is quick and efficient and they have a good selection of books – not just on scrapbooking. I already own a few titles on photography, too. I also like that they have a description of the book so it's easier for me to decide whether I'd buy or not. So far, I'm loving everything I've bought from the site. Check it out!
We're still looking around for a good and affordable interior designer. We want to work with one who is very creative (re: can stretch a small budget! LOL!), and who can understand my space. We can work with someone fresh out of design school but we do want to see a few samples of his/her work. If you know anyone, please drop me a line.
Got to go! Still have some reading to do.
Hi Alby! I have a brother in-law who is studying Interior Designing at the Assumption in Angeles City, Pampanga. He has been a suki of some rich families in Angeles City and City of San Fernando when it comes to decorating and stuff. Also, he decorates the Sto. Nino Church of the Camelites and their convent in Angeles City. I am bragging, yes, but his work is really awesome! I will send you some samples of his work.
it's good that bookoto finally got a copy of that book! 😀 I asked about it a year ago and they said something about prefering/carrying only the Organization Tips for Scrapbookers so I ended up getting my copy from Amazon! HAHA!! Anyways, I don't know of any fresh-out-of-school interior decorators, but I do hope you find one soon! Can't wait to see your new space!
PS. what about the people who did Joanne's space some time ago?
