Advertising, some would say, is all about pushing the barriers to cut through today's fog of marketing noise. Be it through content, platform or delivery innovations, the need for advertisements to generate awareness and staying power in an increasingly habituated consumer's mind is a driving force behind a lot of the creativity we see today. The drive to innovate within content can lead to a multitude of impressive advertisements showing off visual innovations, musical collaborations or a host of other ideas to garner attention. In the drive to advance content, one generally easy way is to challenge the viewer's sensibilities with edgy or 'cusp of the social norm envelope' writing and creative. Viewers are more likely to remember something that shocks them, so a reasonable expectation is that creating something which can do so, easily solves the problem of viewer habituation.
London's Cabwise "Know what you're getting into" campaign against the use of unlicensed mini-cabs is very jarring, but uses such to bring about social change
However, through pushing edgy content, one has to be mindful of the border between shocking and revolting. Viewers that are shocked, but still in their comfort zone, can be drawn in by a captivating, possibly humorous and novel advertising message. However, those pulled outside of what they are ready to culturally ingest may remember your message in a less than positive way. Perhaps most of all, edgy advertising has to consider not only what overall society finds offensive and acceptable, but also what the target market's sub group will allow. In some ways, an advertisement that causes some general outrage and discussion can be a useful tool to raise awareness, as long as the target market isn't too alienated to interact with the brand.
With that in mind, the current controversy around Method's 'Shiny Suds' ad seems to typify striking a balance between memorable and slightly creepy. Method, the household cleaner maker, has decided to pull an ad which drew the ire of various rights groups due to what was claimed to be a depiction of rape type elements. The ad, which I don't believe goes as far as some of the claims thrown against it, does personally give off a slightly creepy feel, something I don't believe is the intended outcome.
The Shiny Suds advertisement centers around Method's focus on left behind chemicals, something their organic line can use as a decided advantage against other products, visualized as a group of anthropomorphic bubbles. While at first capturing less than full attention simulating an actual 'Shiny Suds' cleaner ad, the real messaging begins once the pseudo ad is over. As the housewife from the faux advert enters her bathroom the next morning, the bubbles are still present, firmly refusing to leave and finally watching her shower, cheering on the presence of a Luffa.
The brief description of the second part of the advertisement doesn't seem horribly offensive to most on paper (definitely not warranting comments about rape elements), however, in its actual execution, one does feel a slight sense of revulsion. The slightly lurid, all male voicing of the bubbles does seem to convey some ominous foreshadowing, in a lugubrious tone that might be better fit for a dingy bar than the bathtub. Do I think Method set out to create such an advertising experience? Probably not. But I do think the initial goal of making chemical residue revolting, combined with the voice-over elements and the extension of certain scenes combined to make what could have been a possibly funny & cheeky execution into something rather awkward in parts.
Am I offended by the overall advertisement? Not really. But importantly, I'm not the target market. I'm a 27 year old guy who purchases cleaners sporadically at best. I've never considered what chemicals are in my shower, nor would I care if they stuck around (as long as they keep cleaning and didn't start talking). For what I assume is a majority female target market, I don't see why someone didn't consider how the creative would be taken.I believe at some level, Method was attempting to make a memorable viral, something that would drive conversation about the brand while being passed around for the frat boyish humor of the bubbles. However, as we talked about earlier, the goal of pushing the envelope is to challenge the intended viewer's sensibilities, not alienate them. Even if a majority of the target market found the ad funny, the awkwardness of some of its presentation limits any viral potential or long term messaging it has. People pass on messages to others because they want to be attributionally part of the idea, something this may have a hard time starting due to worries about other's reactions to it.
While what seems to be the intended message for the ad, "Buy Organic Cleaner or Be the Pleasure Object of Compound Chemicals" is a tough execution from the beginning, they really did seem to miss the mark. I don't condemn Method for making the ad and I certainly don't accuse them of intentionally making anything horribly misogynistic, but I do think they've clearly illustrated the need to understand the line between palatable edgy and otherwise.

SPECTRUM Chiron's Arrow Earrings
Chiron embodies the spirit of compassion, selflessness, and transformation: the art of healing. Although it signifies your deepest spiritual wounds, it also expresses your greatest spiritual strengths. These are the areas in your life that will teach you the most. Mimicking what we love about our traditional natural materials, this dichroic glass truly comes alive in the light. Transforming colors and textures in different angles. From a translucent green, to flashy and reflective: hues of bright pink, fiery yellow, and endless dreamy rainbowed variations. The delicate diamond shapes, contrasted by the dark patina of the metal and curvaceous metalwork affixed, accentuates the transformative properties of the glass, that dangle and sway from the ears.
The focal portion measures 5/8" x 1 1/4".
All ear hooks, posts, backs, hoops, and ear threads are sterling silver. The focal portions are constructed with lead-free silver solder, and oxidized.
Please note this item is MADE TO ORDER and therefore WILL NOT SHIP until 1-2 weeks after you place your order.
As this item is hand-made to order, each element (butterfly wing, feather, snakeskin, skull, etc.) is unique in its own way, and may vary slightly in the finished piece. There may also be a difference in size of up to 1/8". The focal-piece is constructed with lead-free silver solder, and oxidized.
All of HartVariations materials are cruelty-free and ethically sourced with great care. We are dedicated to No-Harm principles in our work. Please visit the FAQ page of the website to learn more.
Our creations are comprised of multiple layers of magic. Sedimentary in nature, each creation is an orchestration of glass & metal. Our jewelry can last a lifetime if cared for properly. Please do not get wet; remove before sleeping & rigorous activity, limiting opportunities for "snag scenarios" as each creation is unique & may not be able to be fixed or recreated.
Please handle this one-of-a-kind jewelry with great care, avoid water and remove before applying lotions. Because of the stained glass medium we work in, we are able to use delicate materials from nature that are very heat-sensitive. Too much heat and the wings change color, sometimes losing the vibrant magic that makes them so special. The metal in our work is an alloy of silver and tin, which melts at a lower temperature than sterling. We 100% stand by our work and have sold thousands of pieces in the eight years we've been in business, with a very small number needing repair. The same way you would take care of a silk blouse, please consider the medium in the treatment of your piece and approach with intention and care.

Our team is wrapping up their time on Pearl Island, here is an update from June Post sharing all that they did on their sixth day.
Yesterday marked a very special day for Encounter Tours. It was so exciting because we chartered new territory by visiting two new villages. We found out about the needs of these villages from one of the locals named A who helps with tours alongside T&K.
We assessed damages, talked to them about what they needed, and gave supplies to our main contact person to distribute to those in most need.
The biggest needs of these villages right now are water filters to make clean water, blankets (for night time), rice, eggs, and protein (sardines). We distributed all of these items, as well as, milk and candies to the children. One of our next steps may be to bring some materials for rebuilding.
In the first village, we met L who does construction work and shared how he can use his skills from work to rebuilding houses for his family and others. While speaking of the trauma caused by the earthquake, it was evident he was holding back tears. Unfortunately because the conversation was rushed, we didn't get share much with him, but we believe he may be open to hearing the good news during a follow up visit.
The kids in both villages were very fun and playful. We sang, danced, and played games. Their favorite game seemed to be called "What time it is, Pa D or Pa M?" where a couple of our guys would have kids take steps toward them by counting and then the guys chased them with the intention of catching one child per round – the kids loved it!! After a while, the children wanted to be caught and would egg our team members on to catch them even though they were supposed to be running to home base.
Between villages, we ate lunch in a berugak (common area for meeting and socializing) on Monkey Mountain where many adorable little monkeys greeted us by sitting along the street as we drove up the mountain – not normally something we see along the roads of Northeast Ohio.
The second village was extremely deep into the forest. There we met N who teaches children and adults English in her village for no salary. She has a huge heart, speaks English very well, and genuinely wants to see her people become educated and thrive in life.
N also shared how she has friends in several different countries practicing various religions. She acknowledges that we are all humans and should be more open to associating with others even if they do not believe the same way we do. She is fun-loving, open to learn from others, and has influence among her people. Please pray for God to soften her heart towards Him as we continue to reach out to her and her people.
While spending time in conversation with a villager in this same village, a man named A shared how he was away during the earthquake and had to travel back home to find his family. He also shared how people who are doing relief work are helping their children, but their is little to no effort being made to help deal with the trauma the adults are going through. D from our team asked "How can we help?". A's response: "I don't know." It appears this may be a perfect opportunity for T&K groups to listen, care, empathize, encourage, and share the good news with them.
As we were getting ready to head out from the 2nd village back to the villa, we ran into a group of college students from a local University in M. As part of their internship program, they are helping with relief efforts by clearing rubble and playing games with the children. There was an amazing serendipitous moment created where our team, the students, and a few of the villagers came together and took a picture. In addition, they taught us how to say in Indonesia "Rise again" to signify the rebuilding of this island!! Only God could have planned such a meeting.
Thank you CVC family for your financial and prayer support to make this trip possible!! Please join us in continuing to pray for new relationships to be formed between Encounter Tours and these villages and for us to find those in the most need to help right now and moving forward. God bless!!

Is there symmetry between an SAP hosting certification and a SAS70 certification?
Are you outsourcing application hosting to the cloud or to a SaaS model? Then the distinction is important. If you are collocating you computer and networking equipment the answer is less important as you are in charge of all operations and process controls.
What are the differences? SAP Hosting symmetry with SAS 70 Type II for application hosting certification for example is very close. When compared with colocation there is a wide chasm of difference. In the case of the SAP hosting certification SAP examines whether the managed service provider (MSP) has the capabilities in place to effectively deliver the SAP hosting and application management service up to its standards. The list of requirements is long and very specific. SAS 70 Type II on the other hand tests whether the MSP performs the required abilities as a controlled process over a period of time. Usually an audit period is six months. With SAS 70 Type II the auditor goes into the change and configuration management files and verifies the MSP has performed, measured, completed, and effectively documented the changes.
For the reader who is not using SAP the SAP standards are applicable to the management of virtually any ERP, CRM, webhosting or packaged software application. When the SAP standards are used an MSP can confidentially claim high availability at the application level, not only at the facility level. This capability almost always commands a higher premium.
Coupled with the SAS 70 Type II certification for "application hosted solutions" a buyer can be very confident of the MSPs capabilities. Please note iStreet has the SAS 70 Type II certification for the complete application hosting service suite, not just colocation. Ask your prospective MSP to tell you the specific areas of their SAS70 and make sure it matches your needs. I recently had lunch with Charles Weaver, CEO of MSP Alliance, who offered that "only 10% of MSPs have any certification at all".
A last comment for consideration, with SAS 70 Type II Certification at the application level, a customer is guaranteed the highest standard of managed service. This is important for public companies with Sarbanes-Oxley requirements and privately held companies with a smaller number of shareholders. All companies want to maintain proper controls over business operations and SAS 70 Type II certification helps insure control is extended to technology operations as well.
I am going to conclude the blog by simply saying that if your need is colocation, choose a colocation provider who is SAS70 Type II certified for facility and network security. If your need is managed services choose a provider who is SAS 70 Type II certified for application hosting. Compare the audit criteria in the table and make sure you are getting what you need from your provider. There is a DIFFERENCE!

See that pint of Hagen Das coffee ice cream?
I ate it three weeks ago. He knows I ate it and I know he knows it.
I am officially On. A. Diet. so I can't say that I ate it. And he whom I accuse of being a saboteur can't say he knows I ate it because he's the one who brought it in here after the declared beginning of The. Diet. And if he admits he knows that I ate it, that is the equivalent of admitting to being a saboteur.
If I throw out the empty carton, that is the same as admitting I am no longer On. A. Diet. so I will lose the special consideration he gives to my fussy and expensive Diet. shopping list. If he throws the carton out, that is the same as admitting that I have succumbed to his sabotage. Although his faults are many, purposely working against me is not one of them.
So for the moment, precious freezer space is being occupied by an empty ice cream container and neither one of us can say or do anything about it. This is how a successful marriage works.

In the treatment of any addiction disorder, the most important steps is to identify and treat the co-occurring or the dual disorder (comorbidity) the patient may be suffering from. Missing or misdiagnosing a co-occurring disorder such as anxiety, panic disorder, ADHD, depression and bipolar disorder will most likely delay the client's recovery progress, if not render the treatment ineffective. The fact is that such co-occurring disorders may have caused or contributed to the severity of the addiction to start with. For example, the persistent occurrences of some disorders may result in self-medication that later would lead to addiction, or bring about other related destructive behaviors, such as cutting and self-mutilation.
Addiction Treatment Programs for Individuals suffering from co-occurring Disorders
At A Center for Addiction Recovery, clients diagnosed with a co-occurring disorder are treated by highly qualified mental health and addiction treatment professionals through the utilization of integrated traditional and alternative therapies. Our integrated treatment recognizes that substance abuse counseling and traditional mental health counseling is different, and approaches are reconciled to treat co-occurring disorders. For example, it is not enough to teach relationship skills to a person with bipolar disorder. We must also teach them to how to avoid the relationships that are intertwined with their substance abuse.
Individuals admitted to our drug and alcohol rehab program which have been diagnosed with a co-occurring disorder will follow an individualized detox protocol that is carefully monitored and tailored to address not only their detox symptoms but also any other mental health issue that may compromise recovery. Treatment for a dual diagnosed client is best provided in a residential rehab program where support is available 24/7.
Co-occurring Disorders: Treatment After Drug and Alcohol Rehab
Dual diagnosis treatment includes different types of assistance that goes beyond therapies and/or medications provided at a drug and alcohol rehab facility. Clients who are diagnosed with a co-occurring disorder will need some type of long-term care where treatment will continue through individual and family counseling.
Families and loved ones can be most helpful in providing empathic and non-judgmental support. With this support, the proper medical treatment and effective psychosocial treatments, individuals with dual diagnosis are able to actively participate in their journey to recovery.

Retaining knowledge
My people are destroyed for lack of knowledge. Because you have rejected knowledge, I also will reject you from being My priest. Since you have forgotten the law of your God, I also will forget your children. (Hosea 4:6 NASB)
For this reason we must pay much closer attention to what we have heard, so that we do not drift away from it. (Hebrews 2:1 NASB)
There seem to be cycles in history, periods of time which appear to repeat themselves. There are times when knowledge and education are highly valued, and then there seem to be times when that knowledge comes under attack and we retreat into the more experiential. However, if we linger too long in the experiential, we become like the children of Israel. There was no longer any knowledge of God to pass on to the next generation. They had rejected their religious education and therefore knowledge of God and His word. No longer were there those who could serve as priests because they had forgotten God's law. By no longer studying God's word the people drifted away from their faith, and each subsequent generation found themselves further and further away from God's ideal.
We live in a day where there is a great deal of information available to all. Education is available to most all who would desire to study. But -- the looming question for the believer is whether we are educating ourselves in the things of God? If we do not take time to know the Lord, to know the word, then we, too, will drift away. There will always be tension between knowledge/education and the experiential. This is why we really need both. Sadly, there seems to be a fear of education because of where it may ultimately lead us -- a fear that it may take us away from God in a sort of rationalistic approach to the world. However, the more that we learn, the more we realize we don't know and instead, it can take us to a place of awe and wonder about the One who created and designed an amazing master plan for all of that we behold.
Let us not fear knowledge, but rather, place our knowledge in humble subjection to the One who has provided all for us. May we devour all that he has for us, and especially when it comes to the things of God. May we be prepared as a people of God to express and pass on God's law to the generations that follow. And may there never be a day when God can find no one to be his priest!
Lord, lead us into a deeper walk and understanding with You today. May we not fear that which we do not know, but may You lead us into all truth. Amen.

05 Nov Designing Cannabis
Posted at 03:15h in Medical Cannabis News 0 Comments
Megan Stone of The High Road Design Studio recently spoke with Becca Chavez at THCMag.com about the growing medical cannabis industry and her place in it. During their time together they discussed legalization, the process of interior design in the marijuana industry, and what it takes to create a stunning and inviting retail cannabis environment. Regulations have been ever evolving so Stone assists dispensary owners not just with design but incorporating design to meet security, and zoning code regulations as well. As cannabis becomes more mainstream Stone travels less frequently and told Chavez, "Legalization is on the horizon, so it's starting to become more of a home-base market for me."

Debt Settlement Timeline
If you are in need of debt help, seeking out the services of a debt settlement company may seem like a logical choice. When you complete, it can help you avoid paying any large portion of what you owe to your creditors. In this situation, you may be interested in finding out how long the debt settlement process takes and what steps are involved.
Understanding this information can give you the perspective you need to make a decision on whether to pursue this approach.
When You Have a Lump Sum
If you have a lump sum of money to use, the process will be completed very quickly. Creditors are willing to accept a debt settlement when they can get a lump sum of money to pay off the account. They will then write off the rest of the amount that you owe and you will not be responsible for paying that portion. If you have a lump sum ready to offer and the creditor accepts, the settlement process can be completed in a few days. You or your debt settlement lawyer will contact the creditor and negotiate the settlement.
This can usually be done in one session, depending on whether the creditor is willing to work with you. At that point, you will need to send payment to the creditor. It may take a few days to get the payment to the creditor and have it processed. After the payment is processed, the creditor will record the payment and finalize your account. In this situation, you can typically get the whole thing handled fairly fast.
When You Don't Have a Lump Sum
In some situations, you may not have a lump sum to offer to the creditor. When this happens, the process can take a little bit longer to complete. If you seek out the services of a debt settlement lawyer, he may recommend setting up a savings account and putting aside a sum of money every month to go toward. Once the account reaches a certain point, then the debt settlement lawyer can negotiate a settlement with your creditors. While you are saving the money, the debt help company or lawyer may recommend that you stop paying your bill in the meantime. Then the creditor will be more likely to accept the debt settlement when it is offered.
If you use this approach to pay off your debt, it could take several months or years to build up enough money to settle the debt. The amount of time that it will take depends on how long it will take you to save the necessary money. It also varies depending on how much money you can set aside every month.
If your debt is astronomical and it would take you many years to come up with enough money to settle, a debt help lawyer can advise as to your legal rights regarding creditors and collectors. If you are represented by a debt settlement attorney all communication from debt collectors and creditors included in the settlement must be sent or directed to your debt help attorney rather than you.
A debt settlement lawyer uses the protections found in state and federal consumer laws and extensive experience in consumer law in the credit and debt industries to offer a wide variety of affordable debt help solutions and other consumer financial legal problems. Those with insurmountable debt should consult an attorney to see if a credit card debt settlement is a viable option for them.

Scoring outdoor space with your apartment is like hitting the lottery. No matter how small the payout, you're still excited. There are ways to maximize the usability of your outdoor space, even if it's not a huge amount of square footage. Use these tips to turn your tiny outdoor space into a relaxing nook perfect for reading, lounging, or sipping.
Comfortable Seating
The key to any usable outdoor space is comfortable seating. Look for overstuffed cushions and fluffy throw pillows in weatherproof — and wine-spill proof — fabrics that mirror the furniture you love most in your living room. If you can't fit a chaise or couch to spread out on, consider chairs and ottomans to make sure you have a space to kick your feet up at the end of the day. You can also add warmth and define the space with an outdoor rug.
Mood Lighting
Add lighting to your outdoor space to make reading and socializing easier. Simple string lights or bistro lights can do the trick, but you can also hang a pendant or two for task lighting. Don't go overboard: soft, romantic lighting is ideal.
Pops of Color
No outdoor space is complete without a little greenery. Choose bud colors that will match your textiles. If you have a balcony that overlooks other units, consider over-the-railing window boxes to add a bit of privacy. You can also choose to aromatic flowers, such as lavender, that will help you to relax.
Above all, personalize your outdoor space to make it feel like your own, so you'll enjoy it for years to come!

RBI announced cut in repo rate by 25 basis points to 6% on 2nd August. Recently HDFC Bank, ICICI Bank, PNB, and SBI have cut their savings rate by 50 basis points to 3.5% from 4.0%, the lowest in six years. The cut seemed imminent on the back of large inflows in savings and current accounts during demonetization period in November & December 2016.
Effective return on FD has become nil!
As the fixed deposit rates fall, retirees and other investors who rely heavily on the bank fixed deposits as their income/savings avenue have been hit the most. Bank FD returns are fully taxable too. An investor in the highest income slab, a 7.25 percent return translates into a 5 percent post-tax return. Since inflation is hovering around the same figure, the real return is almost zero. Fixed income products, at best, are merely capital preserving in nature and not meant for wealth creation.
Mutual funds have superior risk-return portfolio
Mutual funds offer a large basket of products for both the risk-averse and risk-seeking investors. For a marginally higher risk, a risk-averse investor can earn significantly higher returns in Debt Mutual Funds (Read more: www.divitascapital.com/debt-mutual-funds). Similarly, Equity Mutual Funds can generate a higher marginal rate of return on a marginal increase of risk. Historically well-managed equity mutual funds have generated an annual return in mid-to-high double digits over a long time horizon. While investors face re-investment challenge in fixed deposit instruments, with mutual funds, the money stays invested as long as it gets redeemed.
Choice of products and continuous appraisal is critical to successful wealth planning
There are hundreds of schemes to invest into but there are 3 critical factors that go into the choice of products: 1: Risk appetite, 2: Financial goals and 3: Time horizon. A prudent investment advisor will regularly monitor your portfolio and suggest adjustments according to the changes in the economy and market conditions or to any new developments in your personal life.
Refer to the following illustration as a guide to a risk-return matrix for Equity Mutual Funds:

With a little time and enough effort, learning English can be made easier. Rather than depend on traditional language education, employing technology is a desirable option. In particular, using eLearning, which is a method of learning that focuses on technology tools, offers promise for companies seeking to teach English to employees. While there is much support for English as a second language learning via technology, there are four main benefits--high flexibility, autonomous learning, learning content interaction, and great motivation.
Languages are continuously evolving along with the world. It's a never-ending progress that's always interesting to observe. Check out all of the latest language statistics in this infographic.
Topics: Language Learning, Language, Infographic, culture
Looking for interesting language facts? The world is full of diverse and unique languages, from the exotic sounds of Japanese to the romantic expressions of French. How all of these languages originated is often debated.
Topics: Language Learning, Language, Travel, World
From confusing homophones to nonsensical idioms, English can be a notoriously difficult language to learn, especially for younger students. But thanks to modern technology and the Internet, language educators now have the tools to offer students a more immersive, multimedia learning environment that can help to bridge the gap between cultures.
Topics: Language Learning, education, esl
When visiting different countries, it can be difficult to talk to the natives when you don't know the main language. Many people in other countries may speak some English, but some don't, and others may look down on visitors who don't bother to learn their language.
Topics: Language Learning, Translation, Global
American Sign Language (ASL) originated more than 200 years ago, is the 3rd most common language in the United States and is used by over 500,000 people in North America, according to the National Institute on Deafness and Other Communication Disorders (NIDCD).
Topics: Language Learning, Sign Language, Communication
Language Learning Goes Mobile
One of the inevitable challenges of learning a new language or honing your language fluency skills is not having the "intuition" that comes naturally to native speakers. Most of us have had the frustrating experience of trying to find the meanings of words by plugging text into machine-translation services or searching in dictionaries, only to find terms that are either outdated or not used in casual conversation. We are often left with more questions than when we started!
Topics: Language Learning, Travel, Mobile Application
In May, Adweek posted an article about language learning that we absolutely loved! We recommend you read the full article, but here's a quick summary: a school in Brazil connected young teens who wanted to practice English with elderly Americans in retirement homes looking for a little companionship.
Below is a video featuring some of the participants. Warning: it may bring a tear to your eye!
Topics: Language Learning
Many of us know what the International Phonetic Alphabet (IPA)is – sort of. You've probably seen it in a dictionary before – characters slightly resembling the English alphabet written to the right of a word, e.g. \fə-ˈne-tik\. Many know that it explains how to pronounce the word. Very few of us actually know how to read these characters, however, as the IPA is largely ignored by the average citizen. It's a shame, because knowing the IPA has great benefits!

Rating: 4.5 StarsI didn't expect More Like Her to wind up being my favorite Liza Palmer novel, but it is - it most definitely is. Both romantic and horrific, comforting and shocking, this isn't the warm story of Nowhere But Home or the amusing tale of Seeking Me Naked. Instead, it's much rawer, realer, and makes truly worthy statements about self-esteem and society. Just.ccable. Frances is a guidance counselor at the prestigious Markham School, vying for a promotion alongside her best friend, Ji [...]Read In Colour says:
A disjointed story line and unlikable characters made this a difficult read. I really wanted to love it because I've read so many other reviews from readers that thought it was fantastic. But reading is subjective and it's obvious that everyone's idea of fantastic varies greatly.Let me back up and correct my statement that the characters were unlikable. As written, they were likable enough, but they were boring. I don't know about you, but I can find boring any day of the week in aisle 5 at Wal- [...]Nancy says:
I realize I write odd reviews at times. This will be one of them.My friend Hallie had just returned from visiting her parents when she phoned me. She told me it had been a rough couple of weeks. "You know my parents live in Littleton, Colorado, didn't you?" she asked. It was April, 1999. Hallie was visiting her parents on April 20, 1999 while her youngest sister was at school. For four horrifying hours, she and her parents did not know if her sister was dead or alive. At last the news crews caug [...]Angie says:
Originally reviewed here.My introduction to Liza Palmer's books came via the excellent Seeing Me Naked, a book that held so much more for me than the title (or cover) seemed to imply. I've reread it and handed it to so many people since then, and I've been looking forward to the release of MORE LIKE HER for some time now. I purchased my copy back when it was released and then just . . . held onto it (as I often do) for the right night. And though I went in expecting it this time, Ms. Palmer surp [...]Meghann says:
The premise was there, the execution was awful. This is a book that doesn't live up to its synopsis at all. I skimmed the last 100 pages because it got so tedious. I was trying to find a punchline but none showed up- we never find out what was behind the picket fence. Jill has a "less than perfect marriage" that never gets explained beyond her not being her "real self" oookay. Lisa is characterized as your average Jersey girl, not someone "too career focused to find time for a family." And I can [...]Brooke Moss says:
I'm still reeling. I finished this book late last night and had to fight the urge to get online right then and there to write the review. It took me longer than usual to finish this book, because I was working on edits/rewrites and also because I was really laid out with the crud, but I found myself DREAMING about this book and the characters within, while I was in a Nyquil induced coma.First off, you should all know that this is not the kind of book you want to pick up because you want a quick, [...]Courtney says:
You know how you have a friend whose company you enjoy, but when you are done talking or hanging out with them, you think "Wow - as much of an overthinker as I think I can be, I do not hold a candle to that level of neurotic." That book is the equivalent of that situation. The main character is so in her own head that putting the book down and coming back to reality is a pleasant transition. I loathe prologues that reveal key plot points in a book. See also: the evolution of the telling of the s [...]Meg Cabot says:
Loved this. Agree with reviewers who found it shockingocking but good. Did NOT expect the twist. Love all of Liza's books.Sarah says:
Edit: I wrote more on Clear Eyes, Full Shelves - cleareyesfullshelves/blog/This book was full of authentic emotion, humor and messy realness than worked for me on a number of levels. And Frannie is probably my favorite main character from Liza Palmer's novels. But! Even more importantly. This book features Justin Timberlake as an important reference point for the story AND the last scene made me cry at 2am thanks to a J.T. (yes, that's what the cool kids call him) reference.(Also, David Gray's m [...]Becky says:
How much do you really know about those around you? What secrets lie behind their public facades? Frannie believes Emma Dunham, the new head of Markham, has it all together. Great job, great looks, great relationship everything Frannie wishes she had in her own life. But when Emma's husband murders her at a school function, Frannie and her friends are faced not only with the truth about Emma's life, but the aftermath of surviving such a terrible tragedy. Not at all what I'd expected! Liza Palmer [...]Kat says:
This was a good book, hard hitting at times and tugged at your heart strings, but felt the author tried to wrap certain things up too quickly. Good writing and look forward to reading Liza's new book.Ruth Vanderhart says:
Chick lit at its worst.Asheley says:
(a similar version of this review can be found here at Into the Hall of Books: intothehallofbooks/201)OH YAY, More Like Her by Liza Palmer! You attracted me with those awesome red shoes on your pretty cover and then WOW'd me with your story on the inside. You have the makings of a book that I will share with my in-real-life friends and that is a really great thing. But first, let me share with my blog friends why I found you fascinating.

How does Liza Palmer keep writing these amazing books that just blow me away? Seriously she is all kinds of amazing and I just can't get enough of her humor and dry wit and well, intensity. Love it all.UPDATED: She's got it all. At least that's what it seems like to speech therapist Frances Reid upon meeting her lovely, talented and successful new boss, Emma Dunham (who happens to be the first ever female headmistress at the posh Markham Prep School. Ahem, she's that perfect.). Perfect job, husb [...]Wendy says:
I bought this book because I went to a conference workshop about Finding Your Voice (or similar title) led by Liza, and I just kind of fell in love with her particular combination of wry wit, self-deprecation, and conversationality (did I just make that word up?). She was funny, sweet, vulnerable, kind, a good listener, and just kind of authentically present, by which I mean that she came to the session prepared, but she went with the flow of the discussion, rather than trying to stick to a stri [...]kim says:
I have mixed feelings about this one. The synopsis sounded interesting, and right away the prologue really got my attention immediately. It starts out with a 911 call from a school with a shooting in progress. But then the story starts and it moves pretty slowly.Frannie is a speech therapist at a prestigious private school. Her best friend, Jill, is also on staff there, as is her ex, the live-in boyfriend who dumped her after two years. There is a new teacher on the staff, Lisa, a confident, out [...]Rea Cobb says:
I have to say I am not a fan of the cover of this book in my opinion it is a little bland, it wouldn't be one that would catch my eye whilst searching the shelves for my next book. I found the storyline had a very slow start and I struggled to keep reading, it did reach a point where I was ready to give up but luckily it was just after this point where there was a shocking twist in the book which finally managed to grab my attention. My favourite character in this book has to be Sam, I found t [...]Amy says:
Was going to do 3 stars till I realized that the end part wasn't a "discussion guide" but a "breakup mix tape" The author earned the 4th star right there.I loved this storyAnd Im not going to summaraize the plot for you the dust jacket does that. Totally enjoyed this despite the obvious flaws -- continuity problems, dialogue challenges that made it hard to follow at times, and far too many attempts at foreshadowing that were about as subtle as a brick to the side of the head. Despite all that, I [...]Lara says:
I liked it a lot more than I expected to, after reading the back cover. In fact, I think the back cover isn't very accurate about the basis of the story and the personalities of the main characters. I never felt like Liza and her friends wanted to be like Emma. Lisa wasn't described as too career-focused. I also felt like it revealed WAY too muchlike Jill being pregnant (which didn't happen until the end anywaysd had no purpose.I think that Jill's character seemed inconsistent.In general, she se [...]JudithAnn says:
This was an enjoyable, quick read. Frances is a believable single, whose live-in boyfriend left the relationship not so long ago and she is wondering with every man she encounters whether this will be the new 'him'. She comes across a builder, Sam, who is working on an extension of the school that she works at. She likes him (a lot) but is she just an interlude for him? However, the main story is the story of Emma, the headmistress. She's new and Frances at first thinks she's too cool an [...]N. says:
This is such a strange book. The cover is classic chick lit, but the prologue is a 911 call about a school shooting. So, as you're reading the first 100 pages or so -- which are very much written in a chick lit vein, about dating angst and friendship -- you know tragedy is coming and can't help but wonder which of the characters will survive. Once the shooting occurs, the heroine's angst grows. Now, she not only has to deal with her messed-up love life and poor self-image but nightmares, as well [...]Tracy says:
This was a notch above chick lit, but probably not a full four stars. In any event, the book follows three friends who teach at a private school in California. The main character is envious of the new head of school who seems to have it all together. After tragedy strikes, they see how flawed the head of school really was. There were some real problems with this book - specifically, that the friendships between the three teachers didn't weren't really fully developed and were portrayed as deeper [...]Sierra says:
I loved this book. Loved. Narrator Frannie is possessed by the poor self-esteem of all of us (or is it just me?) and she perfectly captures the doubt, confusion, and irritation women who've always longed for their Jake Ryan have. We're great, we really are! For the right guy! Where is that guy!?I loved the Pasadena setting (at one point the characters drive on streets right past my aunt's real life house) and I loved the twist of the story where you think you're getting a good story about friend [...]Kim says:
This is one of those deceptive books that seems like straight chick-lit,then twists that behind your back and makes you cry "uncle". This is not a bad thing here. Frannie works at a private school in California and is a speech therapist, works with her two best friends, one married, one not,and has just ended a two year relationship with a fellow teacher at her school, whom she has shared an apartment with, until he cheated on her. See the chick-lit thing? Enter Emma, the new head of the school. [...]Alistair says:
Frannie works as a speech therapist at a posh private school. Her best friends, Jill and Lisa also work there. She hasn't known them long; in fact, Lisa has just started at the school. Frannie has just been dumped by Ryan, who also works at the school, and she's not coping well. One wonders why, as she reveals to her friends that she and Ryan haven't had sex in over a year. Heellooo? What's going on in the head of this supposedly intelligent woman? Reader, Frannie was beginning to irritate me. B [...]Lorie says:
This is the worst book I've read. The intro to the book isn't anything like the story. It makes you think it's going to be about women being friends wanting to be like the other etc. Instead, it's about a shooting and it goes from there. I thought written on a young adult level along with the lead character being IMMATURE, ANALYZING everything a man does (when it's minimal) this is where I thought the writing was more for teenagers. I wouldn't recommend this to anyone not even a young teenager!! [...]Karen says:
This is a very different book than I was expecting from the author. I have mixed feelings about it. It looks at abuse in relationships as well as people being true to who they are in relationships. These are not unconnected concepts but wither would be difficult to do justice to on their own. I admit that I had a hard time understanding how some of the main characters interacted and understanding their way of speech. There are some wonderful moments in this book and some interesting characters b [...]Helen Dunn says:
I'll start by saying I read this book in a single day. Its been a long time since a book keept me up long past my bedtime! I suppose this is chick-lit but it seems to have slightly more going on than most in that genre. I found some of the characters to be irritating because they were such caricatures but the main character was well drawn. She is, sadly, a lot like me!Decent plot, some sections of nice writing, pleasant romantic hero. Overall, pretty good.Slickery says:
I'm a fan of Palmer's work, but this book felt like an odd mashup of chick lit and the "headline of the day" emotional manipulations Jodi Picoult calls books.Bianca says:

My class trip to the Gower
My class went to the Gower in Wales with Mrs Winter and Dan Starbuck, a parent of a class member, where we planned to have a chilled week of sunbathing on the beach, swimming in the sea and different outdoor activities.
Luckily for us, Nicola Smith, to whom we are truly grateful, managed to sort out many activities and lower their prices in order to make them more affordable for us. Within the week we did: horse riding, surfing, kayaking and some people did other activities like archery and holding birds of prey.
The horse riding came with a surprise, as Grif Rhys Jones from 'Three Men in a Boat' called up asking whether he was able to come along just 5 minutes before we set off on our horse ride. He came on our horse ride with his camera crew, as they were making a documentary on Wales. Because he wanted to make sure it was filmed well and they had enough footage, he asked whether we could go loop round again which also made our journey a little longer and I think it's quite safe to say none of us minded that! Although I thoroughly enjoyed the kayaking as I always have, I found surfing to be the most exciting and entertaining event. I found it nicely challenging and eventually I was able to stand up and ride the waves relatively well as did some others in my class.
We also went on many coastal walks including going along Worms Head. On the last night some of us went for a walk along Rhossili beach after a very nice meal for Elliot's 17th birthday. Now, while starting the walk, we guessed how long the beach was, some said 1 mile, some said 1 and a half miles, so we weren't expecting it to be a 3 and a half mile trek there and back! But it was well worth it.
I would like to say on behalf of my class a huge thank you to Mrs Winter for taking us on the trip and to Nicola, who did a lot of work towards the trip and got us astounding deals; what is your secret? And I don't know what we would have done without our chauffer, Dan, who was brilliant fun and has been a professional regular on our class trips.

Mark Wahlberg Hopes 'Deepwater Horizon' Film Honors Victims
Actor Mark Wahlberg said "the biggest responsibility" for himself and the makers of the new movie, "Deepwater Horizon," was to honor the real-life victims of the 2010 oil rig disaster.

Baltic Exchange Succumbs to Singapore as Shipping Turmoil Deepens
The crisis in global shipping and a tax exodus by big Greek vessel owners have helped finally seal the fate of London's Baltic Exchange after at least three approaches to buy it over the last six years of its near-three centuries history.

Two of the top three global carriers are already using the new features.
The fast-growing database, which is provided by the Bureau International des Containers (BIC) and already includes the technical characteristics of more than 30% of the global container fleet, is continually evolving to meet the needs of the shipping industry.
One new function allows owners to indicate in the BoxTech database when containers have been sold. This will alert anybody, or any system, searching for a container which has been sold that it is no longer part of that company's fleet. This will help prevent improperly-marked containers from circulating with the markings of their previous owner, improving safety, reducing risk and helping to encourage the proper neutralisation of sold containers.
This functionality is already being used by leading ocean carriers CMA-CGM and Maersk Line, both of which have uploaded their entire global container fleets to the database and are now flagging units whenever they are sold.
Douglas Owen, Secretary General of the BIC said, "CMA-CGM was an early adopter of BoxTech and Maersk one of our more recent, but both clearly understand the value of a central, non-profit information source and both have provided leadership to the industry. Both have provided input that has been instrumental in developing new ideas and updates for BoxTech, in particular the new container sales function."
Recovery Alerts
Another new feature, the new BoxTech Recovery Alerts system, enables container owners to create alert lists to flag specific units in case of bankruptcies and other recovery situations, such as lost or stolen units. It can also inform users whenever a special status exists for a given unit. This new feature is also of particular use to container leasing companies needing to recover units, as well as the shippers, terminals, ports, and rail and motor carriers within the 1100 strong BoxTech user base. www.bic-boxtech.org.
