Ask Counselling
Ask Counselling is for University of Melbourne students with personal questions about psychological and emotional issues. Ask Counselling provides an initial opportunity to gain help and information, as it can sometimes be a difficult step seeing a counsellor face-to-face. Our website provides you with an opportunity to learn about other students' concerns and possibly share your own.
Ask Counselling is not a 24 hour service, nor for students in crisis. If you need an answer immediately, please contact LifeLine on 13 11 14 or the Suicide Helpline on 1300 651 251. Ask Counselling provides an opportunity to submit a question, but is not a diagnostic or therapeutic service and does not replace face-to-face counselling.
Many questions have already been answered and posted on our website. We invite you to have a look at Ask Counselling.
If your issue has not been addressed, why not submit your own question?

“I don’t want your twenty million,” was essentially what the email I sent said. Did the money actually exist… who knows?
Arranging a film deal is a very new thing to me and I am the first to admit that I am totally out of my depth. But one thing I’ve learnt, is there is one tool that each of us have in our kit bags when it comes to making deep water decisions and that is our intuition.
When people are being overly secretive; when they are clearly trying to manipulate you into making a fast decision; when they are hugely overstating and exaggerating both what they have done, and who they know and what the future holds; in short when they are talking too much… beware.
Making a film is a long process and involves literally thousands of people; people who are trusting you; they are trusting that you will pay them and they are trusting that the film they are working on will be ‘terrific” and actually get made.
If your intuition says “I don’t trust you”… then maybe you shouldn’t do business together especially if there are other people involved and the price is twenty million.

A few months ago the National Center for Complementary and Alternative Medicine launched a website bringing consumer health information together with easy access to their related research. The NCCAM is a branch of the federal National Institute of Health that was created in 1998 to further scientific research of medical modalities and substances currently outside conventional mainstream medicine, such as acupuncture, nutritional supplements, and therapeutic touch. Their goal is to use that research to help clearly define where these modalities may integrate, or not, into more mainstream medical practice.
I applaud the website for being easy to use and for bringing so much consumer and practitioner information together. Finding current and past research is a snap and I appreciate their focus on informing consumers. The inclusion of a link to the Cochrane Review website is extremely helpful for finding quick, down and dirty, clear information on specific conditions and modalities based on reviews of published findings.
However, I was dismayed by what I found while searching through the acupuncture research. The first main problem was that hundreds of research projects that were funded by the NCCAM lacked published results, many of those studies being completed well over 5 years ago. Without being able to see the results of so many studies how can the public know basic, vital information related to NCCAM research? Why were the studies completed but never published? The second glaring problem is that many of the published studies were terribly designed, suffering from minimal to no blinding or controls, a serious lack of clear and reproducible materials and methods, and weak statistical analysis. The results from such studies are at best unusable and at worst harm the status and viability of acupuncture as an integrative medical modality. Poor science is worse than no science, and after over a decade of NCCAM funded research we are left with mountains of poor science. While looking over the Cochrane reviews, the large majority lamented that the evidence from available studies was inconclusive due to poor study quality and that more research needs to be done. Only a few conditions could reasonably be stated as responsive or unresponsive to acupuncture. A quick search on PubMed reveals that only recently have researchers been really pushing for better quality acupuncture studies. It seems incredible to me that the NCCAM would fund the poor quality studies they have for so long, and leads me to question how bad the ones that never got published were by comparison. I am left shaking my head in wonder at the apparent lack of concern for the the quality of research funded over the past 12 years, what a sad waste of resources and time. The serious implications of this problem include the growing movement to de-fund the NCCAM all together and to push complementary medicine out of use and back into the fringes of quackery where they think it belongs. With more than a decade of terrible research to back them up, who can blame them at this point?
My next step is to investigate the funding approval process in the hope of finding out where the system has broken down and how it can be improved. With so many people invested in good science and the promise of complementary modalities such as acupuncture, there must be a way to reverse the trend and start producing some high quality scientific studies. Whatever the outcome, whether acupuncture is found to be useful or not, we need solid scientific evidence to help guide us.

RV-018 Renee Bareno 1 of 2 pieces
This is the front view of this art piece. See the next image for a view of the inside.
This book that has been handled by many has crossed a threshold and become a object of art. The very idea of taking a piece of Library property and altering it seemed wrong. Yet someone else did just that. That individual purposely slashed the front cover into six pieces cutting all the way through to the first page. I took the remains of this book and created a new book. Like a wound that grows scar tissue, this new book does not attempt to cover or mask what has happened to it. I have read every page and selected many to be sealed away from any future reader. I established specific criteria, leading me to embellish some pages and to sew others together. Some of the text has been deselected while some text has remained to create portions of a new story. In its new incarnation, the book sometimes reveals a grim fairytale and sometimes shows us that poetry often lies just beneath the surface. This book should be viewed as something new, as well as a reminder of what happens when individuals take censorship into their own hands.

Letter America May 4, 2013 Jonathan Franzen ... More
�New Mexico doctors who perform breast mastectomies are now
required to inform their patients of the option for breast reconstruction. Sen.
Timothy Jennings (D-Roswell), who wrote the law, lost his wife to breast
cancer.
�Students who like to ditch school can have up to 10 days of unexcused absences before the state defines them as “habitual truants.”
�Teachers can’t whack their kids upside the head anymore. A
law banning corporal punishment in schools goes into effect today. But Mom and
Dad can still go wild. At the time she signed it into law, Gov. Susana Martinez
referred to corporal punishment as a decision “best left to a parent.”
�New Mexico has numerous state songs and symbols. Sen. George Munoz‘s (D-Gallup) law adds to that depth by making the Native American squash blossom necklace the state’s official necklace.
�Dead service members are no longer on the state’s jury
list.
�The state commission of public records can now accept private donations as long as they specify what agency function they’re meant for.
�Leave your livestock gate closed. Starting today, fines for
leaving it open spike from between $5 and $10 to between $250 and $1,000.
�Advertisers who say their chile contains New Mexico chile peppers had better make sure those peppers were grown in the state. If not, they can now be sued under the Unfair Practices Act.
�Got one too many Xanax pills? People who have an excess use
of prescription drugs are allowed to return them to the doctor’s office.
Doctors are also allowed to prescribe the recycled medicine to new patients.
�Public schools are now required to make guidelines to curb school bullying. Each school needs to have a bullying prevention program up-and-running by August 2012.
You can read lengthy details about all the new laws and more here.

Hello lovelies! I am Casey L. Jones and I am an American digital artist born in 1981 which means I am 31 years old *eek!* ;-) I've been designing websites for going on 8 years and have won awards for my work. All of my design skills are completely self-taught and I am in love with all areas of art and design. When I am not designing websites for my world-wide clients you will often still see me at my computer screen. Generally I will be hammering away on my keyboard writing or immersed in Photoshop creating fantasy artwork. The themes of my artwork range from fairytales, romantic themes of fantasy and mythology and/or artwork with a historical nature. I often include castles, ghosts, fairies, dragons, historical couples in love and nature elements in my work.Jul 23rd, 2011

Meet the sweet potato gelato from il laboratorio del gelato. It's pure deliciousness. It tastes just like a baked japanese sweet potato, but colder and smoother. I loved it so much I bought a tub. haha. I bet my mom would looooooooove this.
You should take your fatty ass to the LES location near Katz Deli. The place looks so sterile, you could probably lick the gelato off the ground. =)

6 hard-boiled eggs
1 tbs harissa
1½ tbs good Dijon mustard
1 Green onion, finely chopped
2 tbs Red onion, finely chopped
1 tbs Italian flat leafed parsley, finely chopped
6 Green Sicilian olives, chopped
2 tbs Capers
2 tsp Olive oil
Sea salt & fresh black pepper, to taste
Tomatoes – I used local Juliet Tomatoes (courtesy of JBG)
If they’re not available substitute with large grape or small roma tomatoes
Lightly make a ‘+’ incision on both ends of tomato using a sharp knife. Then drop in boiling water for 10 seconds, remove and plunge into a bowl of iced water, the tomatoes should still be firm to the touch (shocking the tomatoes in ice water will stop the cooking process which otherwise would turn the tomatoes to a mushy consistency). Once tomatoes are cooled, remove from water, peel skin off, and slice in half. Remove seeds and insides with a grapefruit spoon or a small sharp knife. Set aside tomato husks.
Chop the eggs and combine with the rest of the ingredients in a large bowl. Mash and mix well. Gently stuff the tomatoes, firmly pressing the filling down. Cover with plastic wrap and refrigerate for at least an hour before serving.
If made several hours in advance of serving, brush with olive oil and black pepper to prevent the tomatoes from drying out.
Garnish with a few parsley leaves.

This news release from The Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers offers great money-saving tips:
"Looking for ways to save money? Look no further than your kitchen. The Association of Home Appliance Manufacturers (AHAM) offers these simple energy savings tips to consumers looking for ways to cut energy bills this summer.
Refrigerators, dishwashers and clothes washers combined account for a 43% decrease in energy consumption since 2000. Replacing an eight-year old refrigerator, dishwasher and clothes washer with new appliances of average efficiency will save consumers about $95 per year in energy bills.
Replacing an eight-year-old clothes washer will save more than $60 in electricity costs and nearly 5,000 gallons of water per year. Additional savings can be obtained by purchasing Energy Star appliances.
Energy savings can also be obtained by following these easy tips:
· If you are replacing your refrigerator, do not use the old refrigerator as a second refrigerator. This will not yield energy savings. Properly recycle the appliance. To find recycling options in your area, call 1-800-YES-1-CAN.
· Allow hot foods to cool before placing them in the refrigerator; and always cover foods that may release moisture in the refrigerator.
· Limit opening the refrigerator and freezer doors. Label foods or use clear food storage bags to easily identify foods.
· Scrape, but do not pre-rinse dishes before putting them in the dishwasher. Dishwashers do a great job of cleaning soiled dishes.
· Take advantage of your dishwasher’s “eco” option that reduces water use, or use a no-heat air dry feature.
· Use load size settings- if you are washing a small load of clothing, be sure to change the load setting. Use cold water settings whenever possible.
· Always clean the lint filter on the clothes dryer after each use. A clogged filter will reduce dryer performance.
More information on energy savings can be found on AHAM’s web site."

Inspired by the rich, exotic and whimsical colors of hard surfaces like granites, carpet has grown beyond the neutral zone. Color can be playful or sophisticated, and it's easy to live with if you have children, pets or want to entertain.
Interior designers agree that every home has a place for an area rug. Layering in home decor is as fashionable as layering clothing. Don't hesitate to add color and warmth by adding a rug to hardwood, ceramic or even carpeting.

Dear Reader:
One of my favorite bloggers–Shane at GroundtoGround.org–recently wrote about a “new” protein option: mealworms. Yes, mealworms. Of course, eating insects isn’t really a new concept at all. It is very, very ancient. And this leads me to a topic that I’ve been contemplating the past couple of weeks, human diet.
What is the optimal sustainable diet for human beings? Can diet cure disease, especially those pesky autoimmune diseases that seem to be arrowing through our populations with debilitating, even tragic, effect? Will a diet that includes plenty of animal product ultimately destroy the planet? Or, looking at this from another angle, will a diet that restricts meat in favor of water-and nutrient-sucking monocrops like grains destroy the planet? Is it wrong to eat something with a face? And how does all this relate to the goal of living locally?
Obviously, I can’t answer all these questions in a single blog post. Heck, I probably couldn’t even scratch the surface in a single book. Here is what I’ve been reading and watching and thinking and doing this January:
1. Started out by watching the film FAT, SICK & NEARLY DEAD at the local library. This is basically the story of a man who was overweight and suffering from an autoimmune skin disorder who healed himself on a juicing fast. Theory: concentrated nutrients in the juice plus cleansing allows the body to heal itself.
2. Watched the film FORKS OVER KNIVES which explores the idea that diseases can be eliminated or controlled by rejecting processed foods and animal products.
3. Watched the film FOOD MATTERS which attempts to show that our highly-processed, chemicalized diets are causing health problems and gives solutions for healing.
These three films pretty much advocated for a diet VERY strong in minimally-processed, plant-based foods. Diabetes, heart-disease, hypertension, cancer, inflammation, etc. were all cited as consequences of our unnatural diet. I have a pesky asthma problem that I’ve been trying to heal for years now. I was excited to watch these films, and thought…well, maybe. I knew I wouldn’t go to straight juicing, at least if I could help it. For one thing, I didn’t want to spend hundreds of dollars on a good juicer. For another, it just seemed a tad drastic. So I decided to give the vegan way of eating a try.
No. I have to go back even further.
A few years ago, I tried a macrobiotic diet which is almost vegan. It does recommend fish and shellfish products in moderation. While I liked the weight-loss that occurred and the energy I felt, my asthma did not seem to respond at all after seven months and my skin took on a rather sickly pale, yellowish tone. Soon I added meats back in my diet while continuing to eat a lot of veggies and fruits. I also began the process of trying to eat from local sources, including eggs, milk, and meat.
Cut to the present. So, vegan eating would be a challenge for me on a philosophical level. Rice isn’t grown in New England, right? But I went ahead and started cooking some of my old macro foods and tried some new vegan recipes. They were delicious, but no matter how much I ate, I couldn’t feel satisfied. This was different from the macro…because I was getting no seafood? Really? And as I continued to cook some local meats for my family, I noticed how those foods began to smell better and better to me as time went on.
Then, almost two weeks after giving up animal foods, I came down with a rip-roaring virus. I ached from the deepest part of my bones all the way out to my skin. As soon as I had some appetite back, what did I consume? Homemade chicken soup and a pint of Ben & Jerry’s ice-cream! I either craved those animal foods because there was something nutritionally necessary in them or else I was still detoxing and craving what was bad for me. Which was it? As my grandfather used to say, damned if I know!
I thought I’d continue with the vegan diet for awhile, treating my body like my own little pet test rat. I sat down to watch an episode Peak Moment Television (check it out…very cool!) while eating a vegan lunch of mushroom/garlic/onion fried rice on a bed of arugula, and pow! A title caught my eye: The Vegetarian Myth. Wait a minute, I thought. Myth?
4. Scarfing down my rice and greens, I watched while the host of Peak Moment Television interviews Lierre Keith on her book, The Vegetarian Myth. Then I downloaded the book to my Kindle and have been reading it as voraciously as I had eaten that pint of Chunky Monkey ice-cream a few days before.
Talk about blowing the vegan theories out of the water! It wasn’t exactly all new to me, either, as I had read about Weston Price and his studies on traditional societies and their diets years ago. The skinny on the myth? Humans need meat. Oh, and civilization and agriculture are going to ruin the environment. Hmmmm.
5. Because I just can’t leave well-enough along, I had to google “vegetarian myth debunked” and discovered a plethora of counter-arguments. Try it! Oh, the fun we could have arguing about diet, nutrition, sustainability, civilization, animal rights, and justice.
***************** long pause*************
What did I eat today? Steel-cut oats cooked in a slow-cooker with chopped dried apricots and dates and a banana. Coffee with soy milk. Baby spinach, leftover rice, and macrobiotic nashime veggies: onions, squash, carrots & kombu (a seaweed) cooked slowly on the stovetop with a couple inches of water (really, really delicious, I kid you not).
Oh, and a natural ground turkey burger that tasted heavenly.
Between all the information about fat-soluable vitamins only found in animal foods to endothelial cells that heal only in the absence of animal foods I am a mixed-up, don’t-know-which-way-to-look-for-my-food human being.
And then there is Shane with his mealworms. Sigh.
A quick poll of my social media friends yields practical advice. Eat in moderation. Every body is different. Do what works for you. We are designed to be omnivores. Put bacon on everything (Good one, Scott C!)
Finally, I have to also think about my localista endeavors. The most local diet I can get in Maine is going to have to include animal foods, plain and simple. My local area is rocky and hilly…suitable for grazing animals but not necessarily for raising a lot of rye and wheat. Definitely no brown rice. I also have come to understand (or believe) that a sustainable agriculture necessarily includes animals in order to create a closed-loop system. In other words, we need something to eat the grass we can’t digest, to turn that grass into food we can digest, and to provide nutrients in the form of manure back to the earth. On this point, I have to agree with Keith rather than the vegan-diet proponents.
Perhaps–in order to heal a chronic condition or to detox from a western-style diet high in processed foods and chemicals and too much meat and cheese from nasty feedlots and meat-processing facilities, antibiotic-pumped cows and debeaked chickens and pigs laying in their own filth–a juice fast and vegan approach is a way to reboot. Then, when health is restored, eat foods from local, sustainable, organic farms similar to Joel Salatin’s Polyface Farm. Nix the processed stuff. Go extremely easy on the sugar. Eat lots of vegetables and local fruits. Meats and fats in moderation.
Like Michael Pollan concludes in his book In Defense of Food, perhaps the best prescription for a fairly healthy individual is “Eat real food, not too much, mostly plants.”
Perhaps.
What do you think?
Well, Shelley, this is a hot topic these days, and you have certainly researched it! If you’re still in the research phase, or open to a suggestion, I would recommend one more book. just because it addresses so many issues you mention: The Plan. by Lyn-Genet Recitas. The book only came out this month, but “the plan” itself has been around for a few years. I read a wonderful review of it a couple years ago, followed the links, looked into a consultation (fees started at $300.00), read everything I could find on it, and waited for the book to come out. I’m only part way through it, but feel like it’s a life-changer. She goes by the theory – and years of research – that every body is different, that low level inflammation causes most all of our health issues, from asthma to arthritis to cancer, and that the wrong foods feed and maintain that inflammation in our bodies. Dr. Oz did a feature on it a couple weeks ago, thought it made a lot of sense, and is having some people follow it, to see what results they get, so you could check it out that way, too. I’m going to read the entire book before I start the program, but I’ll let you know how it goes. Good luck to you!
I’ll check it out, Cindy. I’m convinced it is inflammation causing my asthma, but figuring out what is causing it? Whole ‘nother story. Plus it’s been since childhood, plus it runs in my family. So….will look at your suggested reading for sure. Thanks:)
I’ll be anxious to hear what you think. If something strikes a chord with me – and this did – I tend to jump in with both feet. It doesn’t always make sense later!
I think Pollan’s advice is good. Andrew Weil lives near us and is also big into the anti-inflammation thing that Cindy is mentioning. I am trying to pull away from dairy more and to keep track of how I feel daily
Oh, I’ve read Andrew Weil. Sound advice from him, as well.
I’ve always gone with…our canines were developed for a reason;)!! A friend of mine is keeping herself leukemia free by going paleo, very interesting post, love it!
Yes, Sarah, I also think the canine teeth say something about our omnivore diet. And our intestinal track is not the same as say, a cow’s; neither is is like a wolf’s. It is something in between. Thanks for checking out the blog:)

I learned something Sunday at church. The ancient words of the Bible are a mirror for us to see ourselves and learn from.
Take Adam and Eve, for example. They lived in paradise. They walked with God. They had the perfect life. So what does Eve do? She wants more. She wants to be like God and eats the fruit. Aren't we like that? Sure we are! We have jobs and have a good life, but we want more. You've seen it before...a man wants a better looking wife like his neighbor has and has an affair. A couple wants a home to look just like a magazine, so they go into debt and end up living paycheck to paycheck.
How about Cain and Abel? While they didn't have the paradise their parents had, they couldn't have had much of a hard life. There weren't a lot of people to deal with and that usually is where the drama lies, right? But Cain saw Abel getting praise from God and got jealous. Instead of doing the right thing, he decides to just get rid of his brother. No more competition.
The Bible is full of stories that help us see our human nature. The thing is, the Bible tells the whole story, full of the consequences of giving in to our selfish desires, so that we can fully see where we can end up if we live for ourselves and not for God.
God wants so much to be in a relationship with us. He missed walking in the garden with Adam and Eve. Can't you just hear the pain in His voice when they hide from Him and He calls out, "Where are you?" Can't you hear the anguish in His voice when he asks Cain, "What have you done?"
God wants us to desire Him about all else. He wants us to go to him with our thanksgiving, our pain, our excitement, our hurt, our love, our fear. He wants all of us...our heart, soul, mind and strength. He is not scared of our messy hearts. He can take it. He wants to take it. He wants to have all of us, the good, the bad, the ugly. What a great God!
So as you read the Bible, the ancient words, remember to look for yourself in the stories. Don't try to "pose" in front of the mirror, putting your best face forward. Just be yourself and really see your heart in the reflection of God's word.
p.s. Thanks John Ketchersid for an awesome sermon!
Great post, Sherrinda!! Maybe you should be writing devotionals? :-)
Thanks, Jessica. I think I would have to co-write with my husband, because I am just sharing what I'm learning from his sermons!
Oooh I loved this post! I think you should co-write/write them as well! Such great truths and I always get tingles when I read or think about God wanting intimate time with ME! Nobody, ME! :)
Aw, Jessica, you are sweet. Isn't God's love and desire for us just the most amazing thing? I love your heart, girl!
This reminds me of Melissa Tagg's blog last week about reading stories in the Old Testament and trying to figure out why God chose to put them there. He has a purpose for each story - and on the surface they may not seem to relate to our lives, but when we dig deeper and really seek to discover what God would have us learn, we see it clearly. No, I don't relate to Noah's ark building days - but I do relate to being in a world of moral decay. Others laughing at my choice to live a life free from worldly passions. Trusting God to provide for my family when the tides of destruction devour others. God is the same yesterday, today and forever. Thank you for the reminder.
Gabrielle, thank you for that beautiful comment. I have always thought you had the most beautiful heart.
Really, REALLY good stuff today, Sherrinda. It's funny, Gabe mentioned my blog post from last week and that's what I thought of as I read, too. Those people in the OT...um, some crazy stuff happened. But then I think of my life...our world...the stuff I do...and I realize I'm really not so different. We all need a Savior. Trying to convince ourselves any different and hiding behind a mask is just silly. Love how you said he's not scared of our messy hearts!

Yes. "Present The Best You." FROM A WOMAN WITH A BLOG ENTRY CALLED "MASHED POTATO BOOBS." I give Monster a whole lot of credit.
But hey: if you want to find me on BeKnown, a new Facebook app that lets you professionally connect with others on FB, just click here! BECAUSE YOU TOTALLY DO.
*************************************************
Now, yes. Mashed potato incidents aside, I AM gainfully employed and have actually held very real, very professional jobs.
And also I did write a post once a job interview I went on, several years ago, where I casually and obviously without forethought mentioned that I had a blog which was kind of a disaster almost.
You can read the whole post here but the point was, well. I was an idiot. I had no business bringing up my personal blog during a professional interview because I did NOT want the interviewer (a VP no less) to read my blog because of all the writing about bruises and dates and plus swear words. And back then, waaaaaaay in the blog dark ages of 2005, I was blogging anonymously, so it's not like Googling my name would have landed the VP on a post where, say, I have brilliantly sketched myself drinking directly from a red wine bottle.
But you know? Times have changed. We're not blogging anonymously and many of us aren't Facebooking or Tweeting or checking-in anonymously, either. Now every job interview begins with a thorough Googling and perusal of your social media life.
And you know that. And maybe (hopefully) if you're in the land of job-seeking, you have thought about your online reputation. You know what happens when you Google yourself, you know what images appear on Flickr, you know you haven't hidden all your FB albums. Which is great. Frankly, I'm not here to tell you otherwise. As someone who shares pretty much everything with the online world, I'm not about to tell you that you need to password-protect your life in order to be hired. But guess what I do have?
Three tips on how to approach interviewing when so much of your life is online and findable (from one social media junkie to another):
1. "Be Prepared" takes on new meaning. Research them, of course. But research you, too.
With so many fun tools at our fingertips, being prepared for your interview doesn't just mean looking at the hiring company's website. It means finding what others are saying about the company. It means looking up who's currently working at the company AND who used to work there. I also always go searching for information about the people who will be meeting with me -- it's not always fair when they have your resume and you don't have theirs, so BeKnown and LinkedIn can really help even the playing field.
Ah, but it's also a smart idea to take a deep breath and Google yourself. Maybe you've done it a million times already, but do it again. What story are you telling? If there's anything you stumble upon that you'd be embarrassed for an employer to see, take it down. If it's in the public domain, it's perfectly acceptable for an interviewer to bring up.
2. Don't Be Yourself. Be Better.
As I well know (OMG HOW WELL I KNOW), we are all flawed. We all spill and trip and bruise and say embarrassing things. We all have unkempt days (WEEKS) and untidy lives, inside and out. Maybe your social media outlets do nothing but illustrate this. Hi.
But your potential employer's primary objective is NOT to know what "the real you at home" is like. Your potential employer needs to know what you at your best is. What is your professional you? What are you capable of doing every day in your best version of you? What will you show clients and coworkers? What are you like when you're "on"?
Your interview is your one opportunity to supplement the online version of yourself with your other dazzling assets. Dress up. Speak well. Shine your shiniest self. And whatever you do, don't let the informality of social media lead you to believe that you are friends with your interviewer; just because she left a comment on your blog post or is now following you on Twitter doesn't mean you're now BFFs.
3. Practice, Practice, Practice.
Um, so, it's established that you're online a lot. Your interviewer knows it, you know it. By virtue of you reading this post, I know it. That means that every conceivable tool for "acing" the interview is at your disposal -- assuming you're a good fit for the job you're seeking. Your interviewer shouldn't be able to ask a single question that catches you off-guard. Nope. Not one. So tell me, do you know where you'll be in five years? Do you know your greatest weaknesses? Do you know how to not only answer questions, but give examples and quantifications with your answers? Do you know why manhole covers are round?
Here's a fantastic list of questions you should arm yourself with answers to before heading into any interview, including (my favorite): Who do you follow on Twitter, and why?
Thank you so much to Monster.com for this opportunity, and specifically to BeKnown, a fantastic new Facebook app that "allows you to set up a professional profile directly on Facebook...separate from your personal Facebook page." Handy, no? I mean, networking right on Facebook makes a lot of sense. Keeping your photo albums separate does, too. :)
Oh, hey. Monster.com furnished me with a makeup kit and business card holder for participating in this contest and you can win a kit and holder, too! Please leave a comment (ideally you will also join BeKnown) and you're as good as entered! Contest ends January 9 (EOD) so GET GOING!
About BeKnown:
Monster.com recently launched BeKnown, a professional networking app for Facebook. BeKnown allows you to set up a professional profile directly on Facebook that is completely separate from your personal Facebook page. One of the apps newest features, College Pages, even provides a way for alumni to network professionally on Facebook and view job postings from their fellow graduates!
With BeKnown College Pages:
- Any jobs posted by alumni on BeKnown are added to the College/University profile page and Alumni with job opportunities can post jobs to students and recent alums for free
- Students can follow their school and build relationships/connections with alumni working at top companies & discover alumni jobs
In addition to College Pages, BeKnown.
“As soon-to-be college graduates start to think about their entry into the workforce, their first step should be building out their professional networks using the invaluable connections they have right in front of them,” said Tom Chevalier, Global Product Manager for Monster Worldwide. “Alumni networks are a key source for career opportunities for college graduates, so we wanted to make it as easy as possible for them to connect and engage right from BeKnown.”
Just signed up through Facebook. Thanks for sharing K!
Words to live by Kristy! Loooove the "Don't Be Yourself. Be Better." tip. They can see some/enough of the real you on social media. The polished you can be quite powerful in comparison and make you "mighty" real. (cue Sylvester)
Could totally use the card holder. And let us face it...the makeup kit as well.
Smart, smart, smart!
I'm on BeKnown! I could certainly use a makeup kit. :)
Your blog is very informative "i like it " job interviews.Salarydom empowers job seekers and employees with salary information for jobs at a particular company.
Thanks for sharing a good info .
So what will they read into "I don't use Twitter"??
I probably shouldn't tell them the real reasons:
1. I already spend far too much time with the electronic distractions of modern life, so there just aren't enough hours in the day for me to jump on the Twitter train, too.
2a. My cellphone is almost un-twitterable, it's so rustic.
2b. And I'm too cheap to put money into a smarter phone and the data plan to support it. (Well, if "I'm the only breadwinner in my family and we're already living paycheck-to-paycheck, so we're making do with what we have" counts as "too cheap", that is.)
Thanks for the good interview tips, chica. And for the chance to win the goodies.
Definitely great advice Kristy! Thanks for sharing the link to BeKnown too, can't wait to start using it.
I'm Signing up today.Thanks Kristi!
You can use different social media tools to seek out knowledge/content, aggregate it so that you can store it/find it later in an organised fashion, reflect on this knowledge.
social media sales MA
And makeup? What's makeup? ;)
Kristy! Can I say this in a loving way? I absolutely adore your blog. I think you're amusing and sweet and clever with a charming element of the ridiculous. And I know that your life has changed a lot and all, but I'm still really disappointed that your first post in a month was a sponsored one.
Please come back.
Thanks, you guys.
And Maggie (can I call you that?), I totally hear you! I agreed to do this back in -- wait for it -- NOVEMBER. I thought I'd have PLENTY of other posts done between then and now and that this would be just a little icing on the return of the blog.
So yeah. That didn't happen. But I agreed to do this post and had to honor the commitment.
The upside is, I did manage to post something. And forced myself to carve out time to do so. Which means I know I can do it again. :)
Great advice! Going to check out BeKnown right now!
I was also curious about the "I'm not on twitter" thing. Does that put people in a certain "not one of us" group? Cuz I have the fancy phone...but use it to (gasp) call people, and skype, and text...and possibly facebook but I don't like the tiny buttons and am always "liking" things by accident...
And yes, please do come back soon :).
I'll be job interviewing (again, ugh!) this spring, and you've given me a few things to think about as I start. Thanks!
And also, makeup? Yay!
Love this, Kristy! And now I am totally curious about mashed potato boobs...
Long-time reader/lurker here. Interesting post!
It seems like with so much emphasis on teaching our kids about their online reputations that it's easy to forget about our own! Thanks so much for this very important reminder! Going to Google myself now because it's been awhile and will definitely remember to be better than my best! Thanks again!
I am very serious about managing social media outlets and visibility. My FB feed is personal and only people that I am comfortable seeing my personal information and activity from work get to see it. I've also got work-related social media presence (like my twitter feed linked here, for example), so that when I want to geek out and when I want people in my professional circles to see what I'm about, I've got somewhere to point to.
It's a real effort to keep up with security settings on the biggest and most-easily-accessed social media networks, FB and g+, but it's worth it.
Right on, Kristy! Great tips. Hope this post saves people lots of costly embarassment. And wins lots of makeup.
Wise words! If you put information out there, you should be aware that any of it can come back to haunt you. Yikes! Thanks for the sage advice as always, Kristy.
ps I need make up to look better than my tagged photos at my interviews...
Great ideas, Kristy!
Happy to see you blogging. Missed you. And, oh yeah, how on earth do you do it with two????
Great tips - show them THE beat version of you, always!!!
There is some anxiety that a future hospital site may discover that I wrote a post about selling children to gypsies.
But as long as I only want to work with adults I should be fine.
Right?
Wisdom. That's what people gain from this post. I don't think it's so much our generation, although we've done some stupid stuff, but the younger ones who live on line 24/7 and know nothing different.
Hey, maybe they'll be bloggers like us.
Anyhoo, they don't think. I see it at the middle school all the time and when you try and explain that what they put online lives forever, am met with disdain and disbelief. *sigh*
Whee for free makeup! Oh, and valuable interview tips. :)
Cool! Just signed up!
I replied to an ad posted on craig's list went in for the interview the next day and was hired because I told the company that I had worked for their competor and they didn't want to let me go. I have worked for them for 4 months now and I already got a raise....love social networking and smartphones....Kelly L
I'm in the social media bizz... all of my everything is not only public domain, but listed on my resume. It makes me (slightly) ashamed that I follow the entire cast of last season's Bachelor Pad on Twitter... I posted about hating that Grand Central was occupied during my commute, and got a response saying "don't make her late for american idol" -- I couldn't even be offended. ahhh..
I can't believe I had to wait soooooooo long for another post and it's basically an ad for an app. What about the diet? The kids? The holidays? What sorta hijinx have kept you away from us?
So glad I didn't waste time checking this blog over the past 3 weeks!
You're just mad because you didn't win random makeup and business card holders, Anonymous. Let's be honest here.
Speaking of random winners...congratulations Lori O.! Random.org picked #27, so hurrah for you!
IT'S REALLY WONDERFUL BLOG ALSO " I LIKE IT "
THANKS FOR SHARING VERY GOOD INFO.
Thanks lot for this useful article, nice post

The Women of This World Are Hopelessly ShallowBy Megan Fischer | Author Blog Posts – Sun, Jul 8, 2012 10:23 PM EDT
This website is terrible. You should be looking to meet someone because of a nobler reason, like they inspire you. I don't deny your piece about nabbing Prince Harry has some elements of truth, but they are twisted. First, you shouldn't have to change yourself or your habits to make someone love you, this will only end terribly with feelings of betrayal and shame. Second, those who are following these rules don't care about him at all. He never truly had a normal childhood, nonetheless life, how was it not expected for him to rebel against the standards that came with his birth? Most people whom are hindered by rules and expectations rebel against them in one way or another, some more drastic than others. Therefore, by aiding in his rebellion you are shaming yourself in that you hurting your own health and reputation, and shaming him in the same way. Third, being superficial will most definitely not bring you his or his family's favor in any way. You are the only person who mayRead More »from The Women of This World Are Hopelessly Shallow

AsparagusBy Elba Harp | Author Blog Posts – Sun, Jul 8, 2012 10:02 PM EDT
Selland's market-cafe in Sacramento is an uncommonly good café and often a source of inspiration for foods to prepare. Recently I had some of their asparagus and loved the texture - slightly crunchy (definitely not mushy!) - and the hint of lemon flavor along with the olive oil and Parmesan. Upon inquiry I was told that the asparagus had indeed been parboiled for 2 minutes and then tossed with Parmesan, olive oil, and some lemon zest. So easy!

Getty ImagesA healthy lifestyle can take a lot of work. And for some, it may seem like it takes a lot of money, too. The reality is, however, that living a healthy lifestyle can save more money in the near- and long-term…not only for you, but also for us as a nation.
When it comes to understanding the costs of unhealthy living, we need to look at several aspects. We need to look at our individual lifestyles, our national lifestyles, and the costs that don't always come directly out of our individual pockets. When we do, here is what we find:
- Out-of-Pocket Medical Costs: The less healthy a person is, the more likely she will need to visit the doctor, and in more serious situations, will need medical procedures that can be very costly. Unhealthy lifestyles make up a huge percentage of healthcare costs, and unfortunately, very few of us have a full-coverage insurance plan. As a result, each visit to the doctor…each procedure required…inevitably is money that will need to come out of your own pocket.
- Unhealthy Habit Costs: If you are a smoker, it can put a major burden on your pocketbook. I'll never forget when I was in my early 20s, there was a major campaign in the subways of NYC adding up the amount of money people spend on cigarettes and therefore, could save if they stopped. They often equated the cumulative amount over a year to the price of a vacation. In today's terms, a pack of cigarettes costs about $4. If you consumed a pack a day, it would cost you almost $1,500 a year. Think about the vacation you could take on that! Now remember, the $1,500 is just the cost of the habit, not the cost of the potential diseases or conditions that may become a result of your habit.
- Less Income: The less healthy you are, the more likely you are going.
- Healthcare Costs: As we all know, healthcare coverage for our country is a very complicated and costly issue. What's more is that a lot of the cost can be avoided. It turns out that over 70 percent of our healthcare costs are specifically related to lifestyle decisions. In an interview of Dr. Steven Aldana conducted by WELCOA (Wellness Council of America) President Dr. David Hunnicut, the following statistics were revealed:
-, tobacco use and other preventable disease. Further, 70 percent of American deaths are attributed to strokes, heart attacks, diabetes and cancer, all of which can be influenced significantly through lifestyle choices.

A look at the shifting nature of gender roles, and how they impact male-female relationships.It seems we're perpetutally trying to answer this question: Is chivalry truly dead? And if not, should it be?
In Jenna Birch's recent YourTango.com." Read More: Are You An Equal Opportunity Dater?
?
Author Elizabeth Gilbert discussed this subject in a talk she gave for the 10th anniversary of O Magazine. She said the following: "We are at the beginning of a vast and completely unprecedented social science experiment. We are in the first generation of women in the history of mankind who have had freedom, autonomy, literacy, education, access to their own economic well-being, access to their own power... And we do not have thousands of years of strong, autonomous female role models to look to for how to solve our lives. We are all doing it for the first time, ourselves." Read More: 'Eat, Pray, Love' Author Takes On Marriage. There aren't dozens of male figures throughout history who were married to. Read More: How Feminism Harms Women
When the male reader commented on Birch's article, he addressed her as though she was a male-bashing feminist-yet she is far from it. On the contrary, Birch takes pleasure in relying on men for certain things. She says as much: "I want a guy to court me a bit... Grand gestures are wholly unnecessary. I just want someone I can count on. I want him to do the little things to make me sure he is the real deal." She wants the men she dates to be 70s, the feminist movement couldn't see this distinction, because it was men who ran the world. Men were the ones in positions of power. They held government offices, owned major companies, and ultimately decided everything; therefore, they were the ones holding women down. They were the enemy. Read More: The Backlash of Feminism." Read More: Can Powerful Women Find Love?
And then we wonder why chivalry is dead.
Yes, I do understand where that male reader was coming from when he said we couldn't have it both ways, but also understand this: If the guy I am.
What do you think? How was the shifting nature of gender roles impacted your relationships?

A rash of car break-ins across the village continued last weekend with three entry to autos. There were five car break-ins reported last week, and five car thefts over the past month in Shorewood. Whitefish Bay reported 10 break-ins just last week, and another dozen over the previous weeks. A car was ransacked, but nothing was stolen sometime overnight on Saturday while parked in a driveway on the 1600 block of East Lake Bluff Boulevard. It is not known whether the car was locked at the time of the theft, but there were no signs of forced entry, police say. A $200 Garmin GPS and $200 Nano iPod was taken from an unlocked car parked in the 4100 North Murray Avenue sometime overnight on Sunday. Another car, this one in the 4200 block of …

Any problems are both practical and symbolic. They have both short term and long term political consequences. And almost none of it portends well for President Obama and his Administration.

Under state law, a public employee may not provide services to a candidate or campaign during his or her work hours. Nonetheless, it is evident that your office has become an opposition research arm of the Obama reelection campaign.Mitt Romney’s campaign manager, Matt Rhoades • Offering a bit of a rip with a FOIA request sent to Massachusetts Gov. Deval Patrick’s office, in response to a story released earlier today that claims that the former Massachusetts governor’s staff deleted e-mails before Romney left office. The key phrase in that statement above? “Opposition research arm.” Someone, please, make a T-shirt with that phrase on it. source (via • follow)
Romney staff facing heat over deleted e-mails: “The governor’s office has found no e-mails from 2002-2006 in our possession,” says Mark Reilly, current governor Deval Patrick’s chief legal counsel. What say you? Is the fact that Romney’s gubernatorial staff actively flew in the face of transparency a big deal?
OK, this isn’t nearly as sexy as, say, EveryBlock or the Sunlight Foundation. But throwing records of the past decade of crimes online represents a new era of transparency for a famously-guarded city. Or as Brett Goldstein, the city’s chief data officer and former police officer, puts it: “It’s a whole new era of openness and transparency. You determine your own analysis.” And on top of that, EveryBlock could totally plug into this database if they wanted to. Some have been a bit critical of what isn’t in the data — race, for example — but many analysts note that this is more than a lot of cities offer. You done good, Rahm! source

Show Report
For Autumn/Winter 2010 Marios Schwab went with his gut, stripping back to basics and intuitively creating an intelligent, considered collection.
Picture it: Marios Schwab, age fifteen, the only boy at a Salzburg school that taught, in his own words, 'hardcore hausfrau sewing skills'. That kind of experience marks a fledgling fashion designer for life - indeed, you can see the traces of those 'hardcore' skills in every one of Schwab's painstakingly worked and worked-out collections - albeit sometimes masked by his complex intellectual explorations. This season felt as if Schwab had stopped thinking. Or at least, stopped over-thinking. For Autumn/Winter 2010 Marios Schwab went with his gut, stripping back to basics and intuitively creating an intelligent, considered collection women will instinctively want to wear.
At a time when fashion designers the world over are reexamining exactly what their brands should represent, Schwab very wisely looked back to his roots, not only through the sewing technique of his formative schooling, but the lines of traditional Austrian costume. His collections have always explored the dichotomy between a cold, Northern European rigidity and a Mediterranean corporeality and sensuality - hence, when Marios Schwab does a dirndl, we're not talking Von Trapp. Schwab's rigorous modernism is undoubtedly aligned to the current taste for minimalism - clean, bold lines, cut with a surgical sharpness he is more than equipped to create. He sliced his collection out of loden cloth, sculpting the felted wool into sensuous, curvaceous silhouettes that slice into and around the body. His dirndls were chopped across the thigh, his organic décolleté scooped low to frame the breasts, sometimes rendered as lederhosen harnesses framing chest and back, while peacoats in melton wool were cropped away high, contorted into undulating shapes across the chest to echo the body beneath. Sounds tricksy and costumey? These were the most original and sensual proposals of the brace/trace taste for harnesses and bondage we've seen all season. Speaking of bondage, those hardcore hausfraus surfaced in sadomasochistic detailing - shiny metallic applications of utilitarian hooks, eyes and rings popped up around necklines and across both belts and waistlines of those firm dresses. Sometimes, those hooks were utilised as just that, forming anchors for braid to be wound through and lace down the waist with a corselet detailing. It sounds unwearable, but it was a mark of Schwab's innate taste and skill that, from their first exit, it was difficult to imagine a woman who wouldn't want to lace herself down into his taut frocks, so convincing was his vision.
It also counteracted, to a degree, ideas of Marios Schwab as a go-to cocktail dress label, as there was many an intriguing option for day. Zippered biker jackets and coats were rendered in tufted wool, bound down with hardware-strung belts, those dirndl dresses suddenly placed in a different context when worn over a neat silken blouse, while a shirt-dress braced in geometric ruffles looked fresh and effortless. That too is telling - these were clothes to empower, not encumber. His body-consciousness has always been about a genuine consciousness of the body rather than just a second-skin dress, and despite the severity of Schwab's graphic silhouette nothing in this finely-wrought collection looked stiff, self-conscious or uncomfortable. At the end, when Schwab came out to take his bow, for some reason he kept walking and walking until it became a lap of victory. Maybe, once more, he was going with his gut: after this glorious, victorious collection, it was beyond well-deserved.

I was having this hideously godawful nightmare the other night that I was at a coaching retreat with a bunch of people I'd never met. There were ten of us in a fairly small room. It was time for the first activity of the day, and I was tensing up for the proverbial "icebreaker" activity that was certain to follow. Our retreat leaders flips a switch on her Bose and Abba's Dancing Queen blasts into the room. "Everyone up!" she cried. "Dance!" I was completely horrified! Now? With all these people I don't know?
And then things got much, much worse. I realized I was AWAKE! It wasn't a nightmare at all. . . (pausing now while you all shriek)
So I danced, because NOT dancing would only make me stand out more, and people would be looking, and some extravert would try to pull me up for a friendly twirl or two. I tried to look as if I often danced with small crowds of people in brightly lit rooms before lunch, and tried not to glare at our retreat leader, who I happen to adore. But this was S-O going on her post-retreat evaluation. Two other introverts started easing back into my corner and we flashed each other a WTH?? eyeball text message.
Eleven hours later the song finally ended. Gleefully charged, the extraverts were chummying up together, and the introverts were sporting near migraines. Said retreat leader seemed very pleased that we were all "loosened up" and could get to work. Loosened up? Are you out of your mind, woman? Do you know how long it will take me to decompress from your opening torture routine?
Which brings me right smack to book sales and promotion. (Sound of Robin sighing in relief that this truly isn't all completely ran-dom!) As I sat there doodling and decompressing for the first hour of the retreat, I thought about how my aversion to dancing-on-demand just about perfectly sums up my entire Marketing Avoidance Profile (MAP). I'm sending this right over to my publicity person at Random House. You might want to get to work on yours.
M.A.P. FOR AUTHOR: MARY HERSHEY
When scheduling promotional events and activities for the above-named author, please bear in mind the following:
::: No loud music or bright lights. Prefers a quiet Goodyear blimp with book title emblazed across.
::: Introvert to extravert ratio > 1:3 preferred. If possible, please screen all event attendees and staff. Anyone that talks more than three minutes without stopping needs a timeout.
::: Author unable to perform most bodily functions upon demand. Includes smiling, dancing, speaking up or loosening up.
::: Author unable do the any of the following while chatting with teachers, students, booksellers, or librarians: Eat corn on the cob, spinach, sushi, fondue, use chopsticks or the latrine.
::: Crowds in small places tolerated for 60 minutes max. Quickly prepare exits at 61 minutes and beyond.
::: No Abba. Ever. No kidding.

Oh my. Oh myohmyohmy.
That calls for an hour of solitary confinement in a dim room lit only by scented candles. Go on now....
:)
Oh. My. Gawd. You did not tell me you'd been tortured! That sounds beyond hideous...
::shuddering::
(Gasp which sucks all the air out of the room:) Are you KIDDING!? Oh, no! Sometimes I feel like a great idiot visiting a church where the minister decides we all need to have a ten or twenty minute chat with strangers during the "welcome the strangers" section. That kind of stuff is HARD. I have to admit the urge to kick someone and cry would have been tough to refuse.
I really wish this had been just a bad dream. I'm roughing out the idea of a book launch, and this has sent me back to my corner with hives.
Oh. My. Gosh.
Yikes. This has me writhing in my seat in sympathy.
You crack me up. I mean, I'm soooo with you--just glad it's you and not me. Though, on the other hand, I hope ? to have some publicity tours when I get published. Eek.
Too funny.
Got me thinking about my MAP.
But gotta have a book first...so back to writing.
I remember going to a college lecture once where, strangely enough, they did turn on music and demand everyone get up off the floor (where we were sitting) and dance.
I'm stubborn. I stood up so as not to be trampled on, but then I crossed my arms and glared at anyone who so much as glanced my way. It wasn't very long before a number of people joined my mini-rebellion. The organizers profusely apologized afterward saying they had no idea the guy had this planned.
Gosh, shades of EST training! (Did they even allow bathroom breaks?) I feel for you! I think I would pull one of those little mascarade eye masks out of my pocket and put it on my face.
Your dream reminds me of church events where they would have everyone get up and massage the shoulders of the people next to them. Definitely awkward.
I like "Dancing Queen" though.
Nice post anyway!

Distribution limited to introduced populations, including those at Point Reyes National Seashore in Marin Co. (Wehausen and Elliott 1982), the Ridgewood Ranch north of Ukiah in Mendocino Co. (Jurek 1980) the vicinity of Pomponio Creek in western San Mateo Co., along the Eel River near Kekawaka Creek in southern Trinity Co., and on the Hearst Ranch in San Luis Obispo Co. The total population in the state appears to be about 300. Fallow deer in California are yearlong residents of perennial and annual grasslands, coastal scrub, closed-cone pine-cypress, valley foothill hardwood, valley foothill hardwood-conifer, and valley foothill riparian habitats. Native to southern Europe, Asia Minor, and the Middle East (Chapman and Chapman 1975).
Feeding: Fallow deer graze green parts of grasses and forbs, and occasionally browse. On Point Reyes Peninsula, grasses form the majority of the diet during the wet season; forbs predominate in the dry season (Elliott 1982).
Cover: Use shrubs and trees for concealment, fawning, shade, and shelter from inclement weather.
Reproduction: Rutting is concentrated in open grasslands. Fawning occurs in the cover of shrubs and forests (Wehausen 1973, Jurek 1977).
Water: Rarely observed to drink at Point Reyes National Seashore. Water must be available within fallow deer range during summer and fall in Mendocino Co. (Jurek 1977).
Pattern: Grasslands interspersed with shrublands or tree stands provide suitable habitats.
Activity Patterns: Active yearlong. Crepuscular, nocturnal, and some diurnal activity.
Seasonal Movements / Migration: Home ranges have seasonal shifts related to availability of forage, and cycles of sexual behavior (Wehausen 1973, Jurek 1977). No elevational migration observed.
Home Range: On Point Reyes Peninsula in 1972-73, does and fawns moved throughout a 39 km? (15 mi?) area during winter and early spring, and concentrated in 2 areas of 8.3 km? (3.2 mi?) and 4.7 km? (1.8 mi?) during late summer. Bucks concentrated in part of a 7.8 km? (3 mi?) area after the rut in November until antlers were regrown in August. During the rut, bucks spread out, and some moved throughout a 39 km? (15 mi?) area (Wehausen 1973). In Mendocino Co., fallow deer concentrated in 4 central areas, of about 1 km? (0.4 mi?), during winter. They spread throughout a 73 km? (28 mi?) area during summer when forage was scarcest (Jurek 1977).
Territory: Not territorial, except that dominant bucks will chase subordinate bucks from a rutting area where estrous females congregate (Espmark and Brunner 1974).
Reproduction: Polygynous mating occurs in mid-October, with consequent fawning in June. Does have single fawns, and breed first at 16 mo (Chapman and Chapman 1975). On Point Reyes Peninsula, potential annual rate of increase of doe population was more than 11% (Wehausen and Elliott 1982).
Niche: Mountain lions, bobcats, and coyotes may prey on a few individuals. On Point Reyes Peninsula, more than 50% of the fallow deer sampled had evidence of liver flukes, and 7% had lungworms (Brunetti 1976). In California, often sympatric with cattle, sheep, axis deer, or mule deer, and may share many of the same food species. May compete with cattle when available food is scarce. Conversely, cattle may improve habitat for fallow deer by grazing tall plants. On Point Reyes Peninsula, the presence of fallow deer does not alter the habitat preferences of the other sympatric ungulates, nor do fallow deer displace them from their preferred habitats (Elliott 1982). Referred to as Dama dama by some authors (Feldhamer et al. 1988).

I am an American. I was born and raised on American soil and have never called any other country home, although my family is certainly not native. It has been several generations since my ancestors immigrated, however, and I have no familial ties to any of those countries beyond my last name—which we have Americanized so that the ‘w’ is not pronounced the Slavic way, like a ‘v.’
Yet I have never seriously considered the notion of whether I am “proud” to be an American. I am grateful to live here, of course, but the word my family uses most often is “lucky.” Lucky that we don’t still live in the places my great-grandparents left and lucky that my generation has grown up with more comforts than my parent’s generation, who had more comforts than their parents. Pride connotes a “satisfied sense of attachment,” according to Wikipedia, and I feel more pride towards my home state than I really do for the country as a whole.
I mention all of this because of the Olympic Games, that monolith of hubris and honor for man and country that takes place every four years. Due to yet more luck and a lot of fortuitous timing, I watched the Games in London stadiums instead of on my couch. It was a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity that I enjoyed at a level beyond words. I tried to train my wide-eyed wonder into critical consideration, though, because I want to call myself a writer. A lot of my consideration wound up involving these questions of pride, as well as the questions I had about why the British eat so many prawns (also, what is a prawn).
We cheered for America because we are American, sure, duh. But a lot of what we cheer for is nuanced by what wins. This was evident in NBC’s very particular coverage of the Games, focusing pretty exclusively on high-ranking American events or foreign athletes destined for gold (exp. Gymnastics, Usain Bolt). The BBC had several channels devoted solely to the Olympics, and showed everything. And evident by at least what I saw in the stadium of the Aquatics Center, the British cheer for the British because they are just really proud to be supporting Britain.
Union Jack stockings. Team GB hats, ribbons flags. Walking into Olympic Park, you could spot a Team GB fan a mile away. Although our countries share national colors, you could tell a US fan from a British fan not only because we kept trying to walk on the right-hand side of the barriers, but because we were significantly less red-white-blue-bedazzled. When we did carry our Stars and Stripes flag with us, the Olympic volunteers found it very funny to shout at us, “Go Canada!”
I spent most of my live-viewing hours in the cheap seats of the Aquatics Center, watching a sport I had loved, hated, and practiced daily from the age of seven to eighteen. There were a decent number of Americans who had crossed the pond for the event, as well as large pockets of flag-waving Chinese and Japanese fans and a number of enthusiastic French people. Mostly, though, the second level of the Aquatics Center was filled with average British citizens. They came because it was here, in this country they loved, and they wanted to support their country. The ones sitting around us also didn’t really understand swimming. And although they didn’t understand the importance of the lane a swimmer was placed in, or the order of the Individual Medley, what they did understand was pride. I came to support USA, sure, but I came for specific athlete’s specific races, wanting to see these outcomes first-hand. British fans cheered—loudly and enthusiastically—for every red-capped Team GB athlete who walked to his or her starting block. The crowd could barely have been half British; the way the stadium exploded the whole island could have been there.
The kicker was this: they rarely—pretty much never—won. Not just didn’t win medals, but didn’t “win” heats fast enough to advance to Finals, or even Prelims. There were a few exceptions, mostly by female swimmers, but Great Britain didn’t get the third highest number of Olympic medals from swimming (65 for Team GB). British athletes excelled in equestrian and cycling and sailing, among other events. And here in the Aquatics Center were average, mild-mannered Brits, of middle age and toting small children, wearing more Union Jack-adorned items than I thought could ever be manufactured, screaming their heads off for athletes who would do fantastically well but never achieve the level of success that we as Americans assume is par the course. When a swimmer edged into the Preliminary round in 16th place, there was more noise than when any other country won gold. I imagined American viewers at home—frowning, fuming, vowing not to watch the determining race—if a favored athlete finished 16th
Cheering for a winner and cheering for a team are two different things, even when they collide. Maybe it took watching the Olympics to understand this because I don’t follow/understand/care about football-basketball-baseball teams at home. You cheer for your team because you are damn proud of them, win or lose, and although you really hope its win, a loss won’t diminish your pride. British fans around us were so excited about being British that I almost wanted to be British, too, until I remembered the prawn thing.
During one of the American “upset” races, South African Chad le Clos beat Michael Phelps for gold in the 200 meter butterfly. Phelps glided in and le Clos took the risky short stroke and touched him out. Wearing our hand-made USA T-shirts and waving dollar-store flags, we groaned and watched the replay of the finish with the veterans’ dismay of looking to the clock to realize you’ve been beat, but also with a slightly wounded pride: Phelps was our national hero; he was supposed to win, he needed to win. Then we all stood for the South African national anthem and watched a close-up shot of le Clos trying not to cry. None of us could watch him so filled with happiness and demonize him for winning or beating “us.” As the three winners walked around the stadium getting photographed, le Clos was clearly overwhelmed, and Phelps whispered something to him about where to stand and how to hold his medal to the best light. Social media would comment about how ‘cute’ a moment like that was, the prodigy taking the newcomer under his wing, but nothing made me more proud to be American: Phelps had lost graciously. How often does that happen in American sports, among teams as much as among fans (did I mention I’m from Eagles country)? In a few days Phelps would become the most decorated Olympian of all time, and Americans could go back to gloating without thinking about what it means to support these athletes just because they wear our colors in a particular pattern. Sometimes pride doesn’t come from fulfilling one group’s definition of success. We clapped our hands raw as le Clos, Phelps, and Takeshi Matsuda left the stadium, and sat down for the next race.
Danielle Bukowski
I loved this, Dani! I thought a lot about this during the games. Having pride win or lose… It’s kind of how I feel about cheering on the Padres in San Diego. They are, overall, a losing team, but that doesn’t stop me from screaming until I lose my voice and ‘keeping the faith’ until the very end of September. During the Olympics, I got caught up in the hype, not being satisfied unless USA won. I think this largely stemmed from the fact that I didn’t have any sort of personal ties to these Olympians; with a team like the Padres, I’ve been watching my whole life, and even as the players change, the team and the spirit remains the same. Once I started really paying attention to the Olympians’ stories and thinking about how far they have come/just what it takes to reach their level, I was proud no matter the outcome. I was even proud of the non-Americans who had beat the odds to win a medal. Toward the end of the games, I realized that, for me, it wasn’t about my country winning the most medals, but just generally being blown out of the water (HA, swimming) by what humans can do.
This is too long. Anyways, you’re the best.
Agreed! It makes more sense with a baseball metaphor but I hadn’t considered it that way until I was finalizing the piece. And a lot of the team mentality is based on where you’re from- so being ‘from’ someplace while being in a place where everyone else is from somewhere else was kind of an odd feeling, because there wasn’t that implicit fanhood of well we’re all American let’s all cheer for the Americans. My parents still watch Padres games even though they haven’t lived in San Diego for 17 years.

You black women just got bamboozeled!The white women are masters of keeping a man.They know how to shut their mouth when in public,help stick by him so he will be able to buy her that house and car.And we black men have great respect to find a white woman to stick with black in this race based world.Tell me black women describe the welfare case worker that told you to kick out the father because he is no good!Yes that's right the white woman.You see a black woman don't want to go with a man that gets his hands dirty for a living even though we make 40 to 100 grand a year with super benefits!White women have respect for a man that does labor work.Without labor work you would not have roads,cars,houses,food,hospitals,etc. etc..Now do you see how people look at as stupid for turning down this great supply of good men!The white women deserve black men because they know how to build a man up!We black men are not no damn movie stars we are just regular people,we don't want to be used for someone to try to live like they are some movie star!That's why black women are single and DESPERATE as hell on a crisses level .Clean up your act you stint wash and doush,learn to cook,keep your mouth shut in public,stop telling everybody all about your damn personal life,stop going out all the time like your a paid caberay singer,Until you learn what to do with a man stop begging for one.You did not even care about the black man until the white women picked us up,you had us to yourself for 400 years through slavery and racism.You talked about us and treated us any ole way because we had no where else to go.Now the black man starting get the reconition he deserves your caught without a man and holding onto a welfare check or working in a high rise overly dressed to hide that ain't got no man.And no the white man ain't gonna pick you up because he done had you for the last 400 years!Sparks fly between us black men and white women but black women white men battery been ran out!!!
I do not think white women are master's at keeping men. My mother has kept a man for over 35 years, I have aunts who have managed to keep men, I myself have kept a man for over 9 years. We are all black women. I know countless many white women who are single and divorced. Just because one manages to get married, doesn't mean that they stay married.
I am sorry, but I don't think all white women are stepford wives, and I do think it is odd you think women need to stick by their men so they can get a house and car. Black women never had the luxury of sticking by men, and we learned to obtain a car and house on our own, like many white women have.
Black women statistically are expected to marry men who are less educated and with less income than them, not more, white collar or blue collar. So that what you stated is not true. I went to college with many a white girls whose major goal was getting a Mrs. degree. I know many gold diggers of ALL hues.
As a black woman I can say I am not desperate. I am in a healthy, loving relationship. I know many black women like this. We are not all desperate. The marriage rates of black men and black women are not vastly different like you want to believe. 41% of black men and 43% of black women have never been married. Some black women do build up black men, but some black men don't like yourself don't want black women, and see what you want to see.
Newsflash, black women wash and douche. Some of us know how to cook, and some of us know what to do with a man, but sometimes we waste that knowledge on men not deserving of us. Men like you.
I will inform my husband he no longer loves me because he as a white man has had 400 years of me. I will also note that the biggest benefactor of welfare is WHITE women, not black women. I know lots of overly dressed people of all races working in high rises who are single.
All in all, it seems your comment was the typical lashing out at the thing you claim you want nothing to do with. I realize white men are not saviors, and that good men come in every race, why have you not figured that out? White women are not the answer to every black man's prayers.
Thank you,
Siditty

Siditty,
That anon's comment didn't even deserve a response from you. Great post none the less.
I hope nobody out there is listening to assholes like this as it pertains to anything, but especially not to personal hygiene. The vagina is a self-cleaning organ. As long as you take regular baths, douching does more harm than good. And learn how to spell, motherfucker.
Siditty,
Congrats on the baby!! When did you find out?
I'm amazed that people find enough words to say such crap. Just sad.
I must say, this comment by anonymous isn't new to me...I've heard it all...while reading it, I had my violin playing in my head. With that being said, I have no need to entertain him, for ignorance isn't worthy.
BTW, are you expecting Siditty? If so, CONGRATS!! (I'm piggybacking from the other comment)
Roslyn,
Your comment is hilarious!
Ok, I see that I'm slow, for I should have read your new title "Knocked Up Since 2008." Once again, congrats and may you have a healthy pregnancy, birth, and baby :)
When are men going to realize the issues is THEM.
What a sad and pathetic troll. That angry little boy must have been burnt badly be the Black woman who he still so obviously wants. That post actually made me laugh.
Yes, congrats to you and your husband. What a great way to start the new year off.
Just like a disgruntled, self hating Black man.... SMH. He may think a white woman being a "silent partner" is the answer to a Black man's prayers, but what happens when that gets old? And it also goes to show you how ignorant this fool really is. He's gonna blurt out that Black women are good for receiving a welfare check. He REALLY needs to check out the real stats on the black to white ratio of welfare recipients. I'm sick of these super dumb and ignorant Black men who think that white women are their savior from being real men. Typical.
Just another loser with his pointless mindless comments.
Congratulations Siditty on the upcoming bambino.
Zomg! A SiBaby!! Congrats.

As for that anonymous comment someone was so "nice" to leave you, it sounds like the crap I'd get from black men who didn't want to look my way........until a white guy was watching or with me.
"Sparks fly between us black men and white women but black women white men battery been ran out!!! "
Here's hoping one of those sparks flies off and activates the spell check function for him next time. Clippy is there to help, not steal your soul.
I think.
First off , no more troll feeding PLEASE. Second, congrats to the bun in the oven!
"The vagina is a self-cleaning organ. As long as you take regular baths, douching does more harm than good. And learn how to spell, motherfucker."
LOL! Roselyn,
Long time.Good to see you about.
That is a Paper man. And if anyone deserves that its a non black woman. I wish all those would actually end up with White women.
"
So true. These men don't even stay with these white women they run to. Also next time you see a celeb BM/WW couple. Notice how uncomfortable the man is. The only person I have seen comfortable in his relationship is Seal. That seems like a genuine relationship. Most of them seem to have a trophism aura. And I think their real intentions catch up with them later on. That is why they split and are too embarrassed to go back to BW so they keep running through non BW. African men have like a 98% failure rate in these relationships.
They better face their short comings as men in this society whether this is a result of racism or themselves. Blaming Black women will only carry on for another few years. Once the population of fatherless biracial kids grows, they will have to face the truth that they are Paper men.
That comment made me laugh...what an idiot...anyways, I too have written a bit on this subject if you care to read:
See, I actually started taking him seriously. I was getting wounded by his words, until I realized all the misspelled words, and then I though "Epic FAIL!". And did he just ask black women to DOUCHE! That is really...odd. Man it must suck to be his wife...
I know you don't know me (reading your blog since early last year) but CONGRATS on the baby!
Man, I'm going to feel like such a dork if you're not pregnant lol.
Siditty, may I request that you never waste a second or a minute on these people ever again? You're expecting, for Goodness's sake. This can't be good for any mother.
I am not ruffled by this comment, really. Then again, I'm neither a BW, BM, WW or WM. People like this run wild and free in the streets, and many times we may not be able to identify them. What they do is beyond my control, so I let nature run its course and I let them do as they please. With the good comes the bad, and eventually, we'll all have what we deserve. I don't feel a need to bash anyone here, I understand there are temptations and/or obligations that are hard for us to cope with. As you have a successful marriage Siditty, I feel you should not have to answer to such people.

It never ceases to amaze me how these "cowards" on the Internet are not man/woman enough to put there name behind their vicious venom. If you are going to have the audacity to spew ignorance, at least be bold with it. Congrats to you and your husband. Just remember, the nausea only lasts for a little while. You may get lucky and never get it.
Not only is his comment extremely self-hating it's also incredibly sexist. Sad.
Really?
Damn... I've dated (done) many women from many races and ethnicities.
But the one's I like best are the
nice,
funny,
smart,
hot,
physically fit,
religious,
....
Race plays no factor in my choices.
What's wrong with this quack? Mommy didn't hug him enough?
P.S.
Congrats on the baby!!
And what is up with these guys and feminine hygiene anyway? Terence Howard and his damned baby wipes. Sorry, there's a reason why the damned things say BABY wipes. Goodness knows what his women are eaten up with, but it says more about his taste than it does the women.
".
after the very first sentence, I stopped reading. it just wasn't worth MY time and energy.
wow that email was crazy, especially the statement about white men having us for 400 years. I don't whether to think this man is mentally insane or an asshole that wrote this as a sick joke. enough about the complaints of black women being too hard to deal with, if this man is for real about what he thinks, then his arguing is proof that black women can't be ignored and he may be targeting some fucked internal issues towards his female counterparts to put himself on a pedestal.
btw loved ur response siddity, very classy
Ignorance is bliss, I suppose!
Congratulations on the baby!!
This fool is coming straight out of a comic book. If White women know how to keep a man, then why do the US Census Bureau statistics report that more white women have been divorced than non-White women? Total US female divorce statistics as of 2001:
-White: 24.2%
-White (non-Hispanic): 25.4%
-Black: 20.1%
-Hispanic (of any race): 15.9%
-Asian: 10.4%
*()*
@Anon 8:10am- That doesn't disprove anything. If there are more white females on welfare than blacks females, then white females are benefiting from the program more....
Congratulations on the baby!
Re: Douching. What this idiot wouldn't know.
A 1995 survey quoted in the University of Rochester study found that 27 percent of U.S. women age 15 to 44 douched regularly, but that douching was more common among African-American women (over 50%) than among white women (21%).
Thanks Mr. Noface :)

I used to hate that, why all the sudden am I so desirable after a white man starts looking at me. That tells me about the mindset of some of these men. Their self esteem and self hatred is so low, that the only way you can be deemed attractive by them, is if a white man deems you so.

Numbers wise, more white women are on welfare than black woman. How is that false? I think you really want to believe Good Times and BET is an accurate reflection of African Americans.
P.S. I have never been on welfare, and I have known way more black women who have never been on welfare vs. those who are on welfare, but we must all be magical negros.

Grata,
Stop using facts. Not to mention if that man hangs out with woman with stinky coochies, that is on him, not anyone else.

On the Baby for Rhonda, Beautifully Conjured Up, Kristin, simone, digitalcoyote, Orchid, Funkystarkitty, Boom, (fŭng'kē) [blak] [chik], Austingirl:
I found out about three weeks ago. I am nine weeks along, and thank you guys for all the congrats :)...
Anon,
This is my opinion, and my opinion only. Yes it is socially acceptable to date a dark skinned indian woman over a black woman in America. Even if the woman is darker than most african americans, she still isn't black. I have known countless whites mention they are ok with IR relationships with asians, hispanics, and other races, but they can't cross the line of black, no matter what, and it is due to negative stereotypes. Black on the totem pole is still the lowest of the low, even if it is lighter than those of other races. I remember once a girl at my school cried in middle school because a white guy joked she was darker than me. He thought it was funny that black people were called black, when most are brown, and decided to use her skin coloring as an example. He didn't say it as a negative, but the concept of being dark was such a hard thing for her to deal with.
I do think most of the time when white guys think asian, they think east asian though. In the racial hierarchy, a east asian would be more acceptable than an indian girl.
what i'm about to say, i've said on at least 5 other blogs in the last few weeks: i'm so glad i don't live in the states anymore!! there is nowhere in the world--in all of the rest of the world, trust me- where an indian/asian woman, any indian/asian woman just by virtue of being indian/asian, is 'higher up' on ANY hierarchy than a black american woman. in the rest of the world, other determiners rule, like nationality, language, education. of course, ideally, there'd be no pecking order at all, but if i have to choose . . .
I would like to say a big congrats to Siditty on her pregnancy. I have been a fan of your blog for the past year and a bit, although I'm in London.
I have post a few comments about the lack of WM/BW relationships in London and I'm hearing more BW in the UK making a point that WM are not interest in dating BW in London. I don't know about the rest of the UK, I have heard that WM in Manchester and other Northern cities are more open to dating BW but in London it very rare for a WM to approach a BW or to see many BW/WM couples.I don't know why this is?I wish someone would find out!!
Another fact that comes in to play is how BW are not seen as 'hot' in the mainstream media and some BW are argue that this puts us at disadvantage in the dating arena.
Siditty Congratulations on your pregnancy. One of the reasons, why I am so glad that I believe in God, because I find Anon's comments hiliarous and in due course Jesus will him out. Once again God bless on your pregnancy.
This post was too funny! This guy is a jerk/loser. It is pointless, senseless...I wish that people like him wore ID tags in public so that the normal people are forewarned. LOL
Congratulations on the pregnancy!
I rarely ever use the N word but I will today:
Nigga please... For REAL.
I can't even waste my time on responding to this shit. This stupid bastard needs to drink hot bleach...
How many times do I have to explain this to you?.
The fact of the matter is the biggest benefactor of welfare in sheer numbers is WHITE WOMEN, that isn't false. You said it was false. It isn't false, and you seem upset that I don't think that most black women live on welfare.
White people like to think black people commit crimes against whites in record numbers . They never want to take into consideration those who commit crimes have a better chance at getting a white victim versus a black victim based upon sheer numbers, they just like to believe blacks are criminals.
Congrats Sid!!!!
LOL! Seattle Slim, I love you....you are hilarious.
Nigs like him are the reason I've never dated black. They seem to be the majority of black males. YUCK. Those white chicks whose virtues he extols can sooooo totally have his dumbass.
Please delete future crazy posts like this joker.
How nice about the bambino! Congrats!
Badblackckitty,
WORD!
Wow this guy could not even s-p-e-l-l. It is a waste of space. He sounds like he didn't make it past 3rd grade but geez my vocabulary was way better than that! No wonder he's a laborer - if he even has a job.
Congrats Siditty on the baby. That guy is really angry, wow! This is really sad that he would feel that way, but who cares. I believe in krama and eventually it will come back to bite him and others like him.
Also next time you see a celeb BM/WW couple. Notice how uncomfortable the man is.
---------------------------------
Also the next time you see a celebrity BM/WW couple, notice how long they stay together and notice what she brings to the relationship table and what she takes from the table when she leaves. Usually she brings nothing to the table because she is not a professional(although there are some exceptions).She usually stays with him for about 5 to 6 years (sometime it could be a bit longer) and when she leaves she takes half of his net worth or more. She can do one hell of an acting job to get what she wants (which is his money)but he is too stupid to realize it. All I have to say to her is get paid(you go girl, 5 to 6 years of misery just to be rich for a life time with money that you did not have to work for because you never attended college and you met a rich sucker who was dumb enough to marry you and not sign or read the prenuptual agreement).
Great response hit all the key points and factors.
I'm not shocked its very nice to meet another strong, intelligent, well rounded black woman.
These guys are so damaged many will cling to white women even when called the N word by them. What they are really afraid of is black women becoming too comfortable doing without them and indifference is settling in. They imagine everyone is desperate for them in the hopes of getting attention. Isn't it funny how black women are taught to marry down, but black men should seek someone on their level...which doesn't include black women. They'll do and say anything to justify the fact that they tend to take their cues from white men. Many are now extolling Asian women when they want to cut down white women. It's best just not to focus on black men or what they think.
Anon said: "Also the next time you see a celebrity BM/WW couple, notice how long they stay together and notice what she brings to the relationship table and what she takes from the table when she leaves." THINK Michael Strahan, Lou Rawls, Glen Rice, Amani Toomer...the list goes on and on. As the number of black men decline in sports...so goes the women. I'm afraid many of them will soon think black women are now suitable for them once they are down on their luck. Hope they live and remain with ww to be honest.

Despite some intransigence in Washington, Tom Stricker of Toyota Motor North America believes improving fuel economy is a bipartisan issue.
“There is a broad national consensus across parties, generations, certainly in the industry to move forward; and making progress on fuel economy is vitally important,” said Stricker.
Automakers noted that broad support for fuel economy allows them to focus on improvements that will go beyond helping the environment by helping them be more competitive.
“Regulations have spurred innovation,” said Robert Bienenfeld, senior environment and energy strategy manager of the American Honda Motor Corporation, referring to the industry-wide embrace of carbon-reducing standards to meet the challenge of higher fuel efficiency and matching consumer demand for more efficient vehicles. Fuel economy is already rated as the most important factor for consumers shopping for a new car. That demand is integral to studies noting that President Obama’s fuel efficiency standards will help create more than 500,000 new jobs by 2030.
Still, the recently finalized fuel efficiency standards are on track to reduce carbon pollution by 6 billion metric tons and cut our country's oil consumption by 12 billion barrels, according to panelist and Assistant Administrator at the EPA Office of Air and Radiation Gina McCarthy. Thanks to hybrid electric and electric-powered vehicles, we could see even greater reductions in emissions and oil use.
Beyond that, consumers are driving an organic change in transportation behavior by simply driving less. The Information Handling Services lowered the forecast for automobile purchases for 2014 as the growing popularity of car sharing programs, well-planned communities, and public transportation systems means fewer cars are on the road - and less carbon pollution is in the air.

3 Ways to Light Up Your Bike
When it comes to riding a bike at night, who wouldn't feel safer within the laser-light glow of a virtual bike lane? The LightLane (pictured) is a concept design by Alex Tee and Evan Gant, so until this nifty invention is mass-produced, we've rounded up three ways to light up your bike.
Sleek: The new Moof bike incorporates lighting in its design. Two solar-powered lights are built into the aluminum frame.
Stylin': Reminiscent of the neon lights found on lowrider cars, the tubular Down Low Glow helps keep autos at a distance by providing the illusion of a wider bike.
Solar: Low on dough? Follow these instructions to make your own solar-powered bike light.

one this week. Still playing catch up with the mountain of books I already had!
I spied The Rook on Goodreads. It sounded interesting so I decided to give it a try.
What did you get this week?
Good luck catching up with the rest of your reading and I hope you enjoy The Rook!
You will have to tell me if you enjoy this book. It sounds very interesting and I can't decided if I should give it a try. Enjoy!

Normally choosing a meal with our family is a very problematic event where everyone wants something different. The only time that this doesn’t apply is on mother’s day, father’s day and birthdays where the other family members be quiet and let the special person choose their location.
So being mother’s day it was up to my mum to decide where to go, pretty much straight away she chose the Subiaco Hotel a place that she has been to many times before. The Subiaco hotel is one of those places that has been there forever and is a Perth institution. Sarah has been multiple times and she has said every time that I would love it. So I had quite high expectations of this restaurant and I was wondering if they would be met.
Walking in on a brisk Sunday night we were instantly warmed up once we felt the warm atmosphere inside the restaurant. Everyone is drinking and laughing and enjoying life, it’s a vast contrast to some restaurants where people just sit down indifferently to their food. The interior is another thing that I have to talk about, it looks fantastic with Perspex light features hanging from the roof, and then there is a little smoker’s room at the back with ivy that reaches all the way from the floor to the roof. It’s benevolent without feeling stuffy.
Once we were handed the menu by the very attentive staff I knew that I was in for a good meal. The menu features a lot of menu options with only 4 or 5 ingredients but all those ingredients are great quality and combined in really interesting ways. There were so many things that sounded delicious! However browsing through the menu one thing caught my eye.
So we ordered an entrée of garlic bread to share. Now I had garlic bread the previous night for dinner at Lancelin and the difference between the garlic bread there and here was night and day. This was a few pieces of delicious sourdough bread that had been sliced thinly then rubbed with fresh garlic and butter then grilled. Absolutely fantastic! $9 9/10
We also ordered a side to go with our meals, I insisted on having this as it had two of my favourite words in there ‘duck fat’. These were brussel sprouts that had been blanched and then they were sautéed in duck fat and they were absolutely fantastic, they had a nice Smokey flavour and then the leaves of the sprouts soaked up the fat. I could eat 100 of these. $8 9/10
Before I mentioned that one thing caught my eye and that made me order it, it was ‘poached egg’. I pretty much love anything with a poached egg on it!! This was angel hair pasta that had WA grown shrimp and it was another great meal! So many things were great, I loved the fact that they actually weren’t afraid to mix herbs through their pasta, I loved the how sweet and fresh tasting the shrimp were, I loved the richness of the egg (which judging by the colour of the yolk wasn’t your standard supermarket egg) coated all the pasta. It might overtake spaghi as having the best pasta dish in Perth! $29 10/10
Mummy had parpadelle pasta with slow cooked lamb shoulder and spinach. Her review of that was “The sauce was beautiful, the lamb was very tender and the pasta was cooked perfectly. A very satisfying dish“ 8/10 $34
According to Sarah they always have pork belly and scallops on the menu and just change what accompanies it. The pork belly and scallops with ho fun noodles. Her review of that was “The pork belly was crispy and melt in your mouth, the scallops were perfectly cooked, the noodle cake was delicious and a novel idea but a touch bland“ 7.5/10 $34.50
I really enjoyed my meal at the Subiaco hotel; it just has food that is really tasty in a friendly atmosphere. I can see why Sarah was trying to get me to go there for so long now. Another thing I wanted to mention was how good value for money it was, considering the quality of the food I thought that it was great value for money. I have paid more at soulless places like sizzler and had worse food!Subiaco Hotel 465 Hay St Perth, 6008 (08) 9381 3069
Sizzler’s Sizzler’s you think you had better than Sizzler’s!!!! I bet they at the Subiaco Hotel do not throw in a single salad, less still a whole bar of them in the cost of your meal for that matter do they. Hater, Hater, Hater, Shameful.
Agreed, Sizzler is a hole.. why pay the amount that you do for old/frozen/no love food when you can walk through the city, northbridge, mt lawley, leederville, subi (my list could go forever) and find a bargain with great fresh food and a much better atmosphere!
I agree! Well i think part of my little sizzler rant was also due to the fact that i don’t really like buffet places as a whole.

It is already a matter of tradition, that after each verbal shenanigan perpetrated by the Rabbi, some minion of his comes out with a benign interpretation. This time we may need a similar assistance, but from the translator of this article:
Rabbi Ovadia Yosef on Saturday welcomed Aryeh Deri back to Shas, saying that this past week, during which Deri, Eli Yishai and Ariel Atias agreed to share leadership of the party, has been "a blessing.""Triple bond"? Could it possibly be "threesome"? Or, maybe, "trifle bond"?
"We have a triple bond that won't be severed soon," Yosef said in his weekly lesson, dubbing all three politicians "rabbis."
Just asking.

Not the Big Three, but the threes
Posted by Ricky - Sixers4guidos on December 6, 2007
That’s what gave the f’n Celtics a 103-113 win at the Wachovia center, and made our record slide at 5-13 (.278).
Sixers played a heck of a game for 40 minutes. Unfortunately games last more. Same old story. These guys always play hard, give 100% on the court, but their flaws in a 48 minutes games are exposed sooner or later. This time it was our porous perimeter defense again (10-22 from three point land for Boston) and some unexpected exploits by Celtics’ role players that we couldn’t guard.
It sucks containing the Big Three to a “standard” night and getting burned by the Eddie Houses, the Tony Allens and the James Poseys of this league. Not to take anything from them, they are very good players, and they showed it. And I’ve always been a big fan of Posey (well, I was…). It’s just that you don’t think you can lose a game because of them when you have to face Kevin Garnett, Ray Allen and Paul Pierce.
But this is what happens with a team with three proven all stars. They just play their standard basketball on a daily basis, and they open up spots for the others: it’s reserves’ job, then, to take advantage of the chances they are given. They did it versus the Sixers. Whatever…
The first game with Ed Stefanski as GM, after Billy King was fired, started with a wonderful surprise: Sixers wearing some damn cool retro uniforms (in the picture). Jeez, I love those. While we are “re-examinating everything, from the top to the bottom”, can we please sack also the current lame jerseys (especially the black ones), fire the modern logo (LOL) and go back to the old style unis, with our storied 76ers logo?
Ed, please. Please. And bring back the red uniforms, full time. Red is the colour of this franchise. What has black to do with the Sixers? Nothing. It was a (dumb) marketing trick that came up during the beginning of the hip hop era, likely to please young fans and try to sell more stuff. Ok, since that era is over – and since nobody is buying Sixers unis anyway… - can we go back to red now?
The retro uniforms gave us a spark in a pretty unbelievable first quarter, when Sixers shot 73% (14/19) and ended it with a 32-26 lead. Miller abused Rondo (6/7, 13 p), Iguodala was on fire too (5/5, 11 p). Celtics kept the game close thanks to 57% shooting (12/21).
In the second the margin was extended to 11 points, 42-31, on a three point play by a very effective Dalembert. “Celtics’ defense is two steps behind its usual standard” said Boston broadcasters. True. Add that to a terrific start by every single Sixer and you have an idea of what happened.
Miller continued embarassing Rajon Rondo in every possible way (and Rondo is known as a very good defender), and Sixers mantained a 11 point lead: it was 55-44 and 57-46, when Iggy beated the shot clock. Pierce and Garnett made some tough shots in the final minutes and at the half time the score was 57-52.
At the break, Sixers stats were impressive: 60% FG (24/40), 7/11 FT, 19 rebounds (Celtics had 11), 12 assists (vs 11), “only” 6 turnovers. Miller had already 19 (8/11) + 5 rebounds + 6 assists (!!!), Iguodala 14 (6/7), Dalembert 9 (3/3), Lou Williams 7 (3/4). Wow ! Celtics weren’t bad either: 51% FG (21/41), 3/8 from three point land, 7/9 FT: Garnett had 12 on 5/8, Perkins 8 (4/5 … he even looked like a player), Pierce 6 (3/5), Ray Allen 7 but with 2/7.
The problem was that, even with those stellar numbers (that meant also our season high for points in the first half), our lead was only 5 points, not exactly comfortable when you are playing such a good, experienced, deep team.
So it was hardly a surprise when Celtics completed a 13-0 run, including the end of the second quarter, to take a 57-59 lead at the beginning of the third. Boston started playing some tough defense, putting some pressure on us and knocking down some really tough shots. But proud Sixers replied and the two teams made it a nice game to watch, with many lead changes and spectacular plays.
Lou Williams showed all his talent again, scoring and feeding his team mates. A couple of threes by James Posey helped C’s take a 77-81 lead and the quarter ended 80-83 with Rondo going coast to coast to beat the buzzer.
In the fourth Cheeks decided to go small, putting Korver in with Iguodala, Miller, Lou Williams and Sam as our only big man. The move paid off at the beginning (Sixers were up 86-83), but after it started raining… It was a rain of threes: Eddie House had two, Posey another one to put Boston ahead (88-92).
Then Paul Pierce went to work, dishing out a lot of assists (he ended up with an amazing 12), the last two to Posey for this fourth, long three and to House for another jumper: 94-105 with 2.48 left, game over.
Not a bad game for us, but count it as another loss. Miller’s best night of the season, Iguodala’s, Williams’, Dalembert’s solid contributions weren’t enough. The 8 men rotation that Cheeks went with didn’t help, in my opinion: guys were tired in the second half. Iguodala played 46 minutes, and he also had to guard Pierce, Miller 42. Jason Smith, our 8th man, only 11.
As for Boston, seems that all is going in the Celtics way: the three all stars are playing great, it’s clear they love to play together, they don’t care about individual stats, and it’s also evident that it was easy for them to find chemistry. The key to me, barring injuries of course, is how their role players can keep the pace. Right now, they are doing great and even stepping up, and this – unfortunately for all of us, Celtics haters – helps building confidence.
If scrubs (I confirm: scrubs) such as Rondo and Perkins can bring something to the table every night, then Celtics will be scaring until the end, and, contrary to my predictions, can have a shot to the Finals. Posey, Tony Allen and House are on another level to me, especially the former Heat who is a great, versatile player.
They anyway were simply too much for the young, rebuilding, tired Sixers. Retro uniforms are cool but they don’t make miracles happen. At least so far.
Boston throws its usual three point party « Sixers 4 guidos said
[...] Here is the story of another early lead that turns into a loss (remember the Bulls game), and of another, merciless three point barrage (remember the three Raptors games, or also the first one vs Boston). [...]

I did a guest blog post for Girlfriendology last week about the ways we can help our friends improve their body image. Because friends don’t let friends hate their bodies! You can check out the article here. There’s lots of good ideas there. Go forth and read it and come back. I’ll wait.
One question that arose out of the article was “how can I help my friend if I’m not loving my body myself?” And “who am I to promote positive body image when my own self-esteem isn’t where I’d like it to be?”
These questions make sense. We all look for inspiration. Someone stronger and more secure than us that we can look up and aspire towards. Role models. Leaders.
I’ve wondered about this myself. Because while I’ve been complimented on the “work”?
I don’t think so. Because I keep working hard and pushing my way through the bouts of insecurity and faltering self-love. All we can all do is try our best. Be honest and not give up. Try to say and do something that will mean something to ourselves and the people around us.
When you think about it, what’s the alternative? Wait until we feel like we have it completely together? Put off speaking out and working towards a good cause? How do we know when we are “confident enough”?
To me, waiting until we feel like we have our brains perfectly straight is eerily analogous to waiting to accept ourselves until we lose those last ten pounds, or get into those pair of jeans we have tucked away. It’s not realizing our worth NOW.
You can make a difference to someone else’s self-esteem. You can speak out against negative messages hampering women’s positive body image. You have a voice. Use it. Don’t wait until you feel you’ve “earned” the right to speak. You have something to say. Demand to be heard.
There are so people that are just awesome, that make me want to be more . At the same time, their greatness doesn’t make me worth less. When you see someone you admire, try to learn from them. But at the same time, try to find in the leader in yourself.
Empowering yourself will not only help those around you, but will help you to appreciate yourself. Be there for your girlfriends. Be there for yourself. You’re “enough” already.

Mama, Happy Mother's Day!
the photo were taken on the last weekend when me and my sister spending our time with our beloved mom. the location was at the nice indoor garden of the One Utama. it was a very lovely moment when i got the chance to bring her to our hang-out place and trying my fav, the cheesy meat rice! hehe..
so, HAPPY MOTHER'S DAY to my only mama, Puan Zaitun Binti Kasim. she is looking like a middle of 40 something lady, right? well, to be exact she was already 55 years old on the last February! haaarr..so awet muda kan?! so, please know that i'm inheriting those quality from her! LOL haha..
so, here is my short and sweet speech for the responsible person who brought me to this world!
mama, terima kasih memang la tak cukup untuk menghargai kesusahan mengandungkan adik and lebih2 lagi menahan sakit melahirkan adik. adik tau itu satu pengorbanan yang besar dan tak mampu untuk dibalas sampai bila2. adik minta maaf diatas semua kesalahan dan kedegilan yang adik lakukan walaupun adik tau kedegilan itu akan sentiasa berlaku! huhu...insyAllah, adik akan bawa mama jalan2 once i've enough money for it coz itu je yang mampu adik lakukan for both of us. please pray for it..amin. and please know that takde anak yang tak sayang mak die..
btw guys, isn't the photos are looking different to you? yup, i've just successfully edited it after being so envy with other blogger's 'bokeh' photo for a loooong time. so, i was trying so hard google-ing the photoshop tutorial of it. in the end, i found that IT IS SERIOUSLY A VERY SIMPLE METHOD. you just need to 'mix' your photo and any bokeh image together. then, do some adjusting on it, ta-da you've done! seriously, i felt so stupid because i thought that there is a very complicated one! XP
till then..
p/s: " sorry guys, i've unintentionally 'deleted' your comments on this post. haiyooo..i'm sorry and thanks for the words! (">.<) "
xoxo

However, there has been an increase in vacation housing rental scams, so you need to be careful. Skiers are arriving at the property they thought they had rented only to discover that it's not available for rent or may not even be real. The "property manager" may actually be a scammer who preys on unsuspecting vacationers.
If it happens to you, it obviously puts a huge damper on your vacation. You've given a deposit or even the full rental amount, which is required in many resort areas. You probably won't be able to get back your money if you wired it, and you have nowhere to stay. If you're a victim of a condo or vacation home rental fraud scheme, you're in trouble.
Unfortunately, the local police department in the ski town you're visiting probably won't be able to help you get a refund because the money is typically wired or transferred out-of-state. You'll need to report it to agencies at home or where the money was sent. However, the local chamber of commerce may be able to help you secure new lodging on short notice.
Types of Vacation Rental Scams
Scammers take advantage of vacationers in a variety of ways. The property you are renting may not even exist, or it could be a real vacation rental that has been hijacked by a scammer. The scammer copies photos and a description from a real listing and then relists it with his or her contact information. The most prevalent scams include:
- Fake Condo or House: Rental Property does not exist (fake photos and address).
- Real Condo or House / Fake Listing: The scammer copies a listing from a legitimate rental and posts it online using the photos and description from the real listing, but changes the price and the contact information.
In both cases, the scammer will request payment of the security deposit and the rent (which can be required up to 30 days in advance during peak season) in advance. You will be asked to pay via a wire transfer, money order, Cashier's Check, or other money transfer service. With all these payment methods, it will be as though you paid cash, and it will most likely be impossible to recoup the money you have sent.
Booking Safe Vacation Rentals
How can you book a vacation rental where you don't have to worry about whether you are going to get scammed? Before you make a reservation, it's important to carefully check out the property you are planning to rent and whom you are renting it from. Avoiding a scam upfront will ensure that you are spending your time on the slopes, not trying to find accommodations on short notice.
Scams are more prevalent on vacation rental by owner sites and Craigslist, when you are dealing with individuals rather than an organization. If you book your lodging through the ski resort central reservations, a reputable property management company, or the local chamber of commerce you can be assured that your booking is legitimate.
For example, the Park City, Utah Chamber of Commerce has a directory of lodging providers and you can book directly through the chamber's website. Vail provides one-stop shopping for hotels, vacation rentals, and more local lodging options. Most major ski resorts offer similar services to skiers planning a vacation trip.
How to Avoid Scams
How can you avoid scams? It's important to careful research the lodging and the person you are renting it from. Here are some tips for avoiding vacation rental scams.
Book Direct. Your best bet is to book through a property management company, the ski resort or lodging providers recommended by the resort, or the chamber of commerce.
Check the Price. Is the rental price similar to equivalent listings? If the price is a real bargain, it may be too good to be true. For example, there were scams reported in Park City, Utah during the Sundance Film Festival when vacation housing prices are at a premium. The Park Record reported scams where the price was well below the going rate for housing.
Check the Photos. Check out the photos included in the listing. If you're seeing a photo of a condo with the beach in the background, it's not a condo at a ski resort. Are you seeing the same photos in a variety of listings? That's another sign that the listing may not be legitimate.
Check the Listing. Is the same property listed on many different websites at different prices? That's a sign it could be a scam. The easiest way to check is to take part of the description and search for it on Google. If you see the same property listed with different prices and different contact people, be careful.
Before You Book. Before you submit payment to an individual owner or property manager, call the telephone number in the listing and have a conversation. Ask them for references and contact the references to be sure they were satisfied with their stay. Ask about the terms and be sure you can pay by credit card.
Check Out Who's Renting the Property. If you do book through an individual call them and check them out online. Google them to see what information you can find, check them out on social networking sites like Facebook and LinkedIn, and search for the name they have given plus the terms "scam" or "fraud" to see if you can find any reports of scams.
Don't Send Money. The best way to pay is by credit card because you can dispute fraudulent charges. Don't pay by money transfer systems like Western Union or MoneyGram or wire money to someone's bank account. If you book through a vacation rental website, book through the site's reservation system. For example, payments made through HomeAway Reservation Manager system are guaranteed up to $10,000 against internet fraud.

Because of the recent confusion, I have decided to clear up weather or not this is a forum for people who can't already skim.

I've had this board for over a year and used it no more than a dozen times. I bought this board new from the Vic factory in Laguna but I got an Exile shortly afterwards.
It's a medium polyvac with carbon fiber. Comes complete with pads. This board has no wear except for one minor ding on the nose which I repaired. Take a look at the pictures below. There is no wear on the bottom tail indicating this has barely been ridden. I'm looking to sell this board for $250 (Brand new a carbon poly is 414 w/o pads).
If these images dont appear, visit this ad on craigslist:

I'd like to take a moment to introduce something a bit different than our usual world of visual skull creativity here on Skull-A-Day. Poet Kim Roberts just shared this piece with me and gave me permission to pass it along to you. It appears in her Pearl Poetry Prize winning book Animal Magnetism...
For more of Kim's work visit her site HERE.
THE SKULL OF JOHANN GASPAR SPURZHEIM (1776-1832)
The Warren Anatomical Museum, Harvard University, Boston
Spurzheim’s skull
is sliced through the brow,
completely around,
a perfect cap, then bisected
down the middle.
If you put hinges on either side,
above where he once had ears,
you could open him up
like a treasure box.
Spurzheim made a study of brains,
an atlas of 36 “organs”
(Amativeness, Veneration, Marvellousness)
which controlled morality and intellect.
His brain, one of the heaviest
ever recorded,
would have been a source of pride
if he only had known.
He got so much wrong.
Tell me: is a life wrestling
with a single misguided theory
a wasted life?
The brain is indeed
a treasure box:
a little space here for perception,
an area there for volition,
a communications center,
a music box
with gears and flywheels,
a pirouetting ballerina.
The skull is a beautiful receptacle
and Spurzheim’s skull,
held upright
on a pronged stand,
shelved behind a plate of glass,
a slice of history,
glows.
Folks in the DC area can actually meet Kim at her book release party
on Sunday, February 20 @ 4:00 pm
14th & V Streets NW, Historic U Street neighborhood
202.387.POET
Free, but donations accepted.

With only the official ratification of the CBA standing in the way of NHL hockey, here’s a look at the top 10 unrestricted free agents available when training camps are expected to open Sunday.
1. Petr Sykora. The 36-year-old forward showed up at camp last year with the New Jersey Devils, earned a contract and became a contributing member of a team that went to the Stanley Cup final. He played all 82 games and scored 21 goals.
2. Jason Arnott. The 38-year-old had 34 points for the St. Louis Blues last year. He’s a good depth player for a team looking for a veteran presence.

Ask Rod: Who Is This Guy?
Rod Kurtz, the executive editor of AOL Small Business, is here to answer your business questions. Just send him a video or e-mail at [email protected].
Rod, many business givers feel their money (large or small) pale compared to the Gates’ and Clintons’ foundations to Africa. But there’s an easy way to give without “giving until it hurts”. If a business donates a percentage of each product sold to their charity, the increments over a period of time, can make an impact.
DARE-America is the anti-drug and anti-violence prevention in our schools. We understand our role behind imperiled children with cancer at St. Jude, the Pediatric Aids Foundation, the displaced children in Haiti and Louisiana, only to name a few tragedies. But that does not make us any less important, because children can be at-risk within their own homes and communities when drugs and crime are present.
To keep our vital charity afloat during these trying economic times, we introduced PRODUCT donations. With one large worldwide organization, DARE receives $1 of each product sold; with another business, we receive 20% of product sold.
So, could you please explain to the small business owner and corporate America who need write-offs how easy it is to donate or recycle product to causes or charities of their choice?

The Power of WHO
Today in the U.S. alone, more than 10 million people are desperately looking for work - 2 million more than last year. For those os uf who have jobs, our daily struggle in this economy is to stay relevant and needed.
Bob Beaudine has answers.
Sports Illustrated has called our friend Beaudine the "top front office match-maker in sports" and "the most influential man you have never heard of." He is one of the world's leading executive recruiters in sports, entertainment and business - placing everyone from the commissioner of the NFL to the coaches of many Division I football teams.
In a great new book, The Power of WHO, he offers more than two decades of practical advice to those who need to find a ner career, want a better job, yearn to smash a series record or want a richer life. He shows readers how to creatively use their network. But he warns, it's not networking as you know it. Says he, "You need to throw out everything you have ever heard about networking to find a job. It's crap! It doesn't work!"
Bob told us, "As an executive recruiter, I get thousands of resumes every week and it's disheartening to see a resume come in from people who feel they're going to get their next opportunity when they write, 'Dear Sir,' 'To Whom It May Concern' or 'Dear Recruiter' (which is an oxymoron, he notes). It always confused me that people use a non-relational approach to get something so important they're going to work eight to ten to twelve hours a day for."
Nameless strangers won't help, but our WHO will. They are friends and allies willing to help when we reach out.
Says Beaudine, "Your WHO is your community of friends that's been built up over many years with love and unconditional giving. These friends care about you, they want to help you, they share your core values. They'll come to your aid if you'd ask them. We've been taught inccorectly that friends and business are taboo. So whoa re we supposed to work with? People we don't know and don't trust?"
There's a good chance you know someone right now who has lost their job or is in a vulnerable position at work. "They feel like they've been in a car wreck," relates Beaudine. "There's pain, fear, panic. But who do you call if you've been in a wreck? You don't pull out a business card from you last conference. You call a family member or a friend."
He adds that people who've lost jobs or those in trouble financially tend to go to Monster. com, send out mass e-mails or start cold-calling businesses. Instead, Bob recommends three Rs:
Remember. You're not alone in your situation. Get back to your WHO - those people you knew in your first jobs, in college, at church, in your kids' sports teams. We've got to talk to the people who matter most because friends help us, not acquaintances.
Reach out. You've got to call them and say, "Where have you been? I've missed you?" These people would drop everything to help. But we think because we haven't talked to them in a while that they're going to think we're a user. That's just not true! Ask for their help. Don't be vague about what you're doing; tell them what you need and that you'll help them whenever you can.
Reconnect with Key People. How many people do you really need this year to get that one big deal? Probably just one. But we don't usually have a list in front of us of the people that matter. We live the rest of our lives with lists. When it comes down to talking about people that matter to you, put them on a list.
Then, when you're finally sitting across from someone who wants to hire you, promote you or give you new business, Beaudine says you should remember the four questions they're thinking about as they interview you:
1. Do I know you? They're wondering if they've heard about you or if someone has spoken to them on your behalf. Recommendations are the biggest reason someone gets a job or makes a sale. In fact, 87 percent of jobs are placed from one friendly reference!
2. Do I like you? How long is it before you form an opinion of someone? It's in the first few minutes. Can you create a positive personal relationship if you've never met a person and no one has given you a reference? Not in two minutes.
3. Do you understand my needs? Are you speaking just about yourself, or hav eyou reserached my company, my current situation and have unique solutions just for me?
4. Are you the best for my situation? Do you have the skills-set I need right now?
As Beaudine reminds us, friendships are as vital to our dreams and goals as food and water are to our bodies. True friendships are based on loyalty and mutual regard. There are no strings attached. You help your WHO friends simply because you can.

Corrections & Amplifications
Entrepreneurs and small-business owners often think that incorporating video into their marketing or communication plan -- let alone configuring a website for video -- is costly, complicated and beyond reach. With the launch this week of Vimeo PRO from Vimeo, nothing could be further from the truth.
Online video is expected to account for half of all consumer Internet traffic by the end of next year, according to a recent Cisco report. Further, a Forbes Insights survey from last December showed that nearly 60 percent of those online will watch a video before reading the text on any given webpage -- and they’re more likely to make a purchase.
These findings should prompt businesses of all sizes to see the urgency of matching the growing demand for video-related content with videos of their own.
Enter, Vimeo. The second most popular online video portal behind YouTube, is finally giving small businesses and commercial enterprises overall their chance to get in on the video action. With Vimeo PRO, $199 a year gives businesses a simple and affordable professional video-hosting solution, complete with analytics for gauging return on investment. Each year, users receive 50 gigabytes of storage and 250,000 plays for video embedded on your own website in a player branded with your company’s logo. That’s enough to upload between 700 and 2,000 five-minute videos, depending on the video format you use.
Think you'll need more? It’s $199 for each 50GB increment. You can also buy additional plays in increments of 100,000 for $199. And unlike Vimeo.com, which doesn’t permit commercial content, Vimeo PRO is tailor-made for businesses -- offering a platform built from the ground up to promote or sell a product or service.
With Vimeo PRO, your business’ video content can be integrated into your website in an environment that enables you to add your logo to the video player itself. And, unlike YouTube and "regular" Vimeo, nobody else’s advertising appears on top of your videos, and you have access to an advanced dashboard featuring key performance indicators such as the number of times your videos have been loaded, played and finished, just to name a few.
Putting small businesses on an equal footing with the big boys, Vimeo PRO offers exceptional video quality -- including features like high definition and HTML5 video. It also provides portfolio websites that you can customize, video review pages and integration with leading social-media utilities and platforms. And if video isn’t your strong suit, PRO account holders can access Vimeo's online education portal, Vimeo Video School.
Vimeo PRO is a worthy choice for entrepreneurs and small-business owners looking to host video on their own sites in a branded environment devoid of the types of ads that get embedded into videos from YouTube.
Corrections & Amplifications: An earlier version of this post misstated Vimeo PRO's search engine optimization capabilities. Vimeo PRO includes SEO features.
Will Vimeo PRO help you take the leap into hosting your own videos? Leave a comment and let us know.

Pitch your company in 25 minutes or less
DURHAM, Nov 16, 2012 (The News & Observer (Raleigh - McClatchy-Tribune Information Services via COMTEX) -- Jivan Achreja sat at a long marble table inside a boardroom in the American Tobacco complex Thursday waiting to make his next pitch to advance his company.
Story continues below ↓
Achreja, chief information officer for INRFood (pronounced "inner food"), said he wasn't nervous.
"I was lucky to have parents who believe in public speaking," said Achreja, 23, a 2010 UNC-Chapel Hill graduate.
He is pitching INRFood, an app that at its most basic level allows users to scan a food product's bar code for a list of ingredients that are color coded -- green means safe, yellow means moderation, and red means avoid -- to alert the consumer of customizable dietary restrictions that result from allergies, pregnancy and disease.

Many will relate to movable and pop-up books as toys whose primary purpose is to
entertain children and adults. Tunnel books or peep-shows, (accordion books that when extended allow the viewer to see a spatial area in perspective) continue to amuse children of all ages. The exhibition Fold, Pull, Pop & Turn will also include clever flap books that reveal answers to riddles or
show cartoon-like characters when lifted.
Many works, as seen in Cinderella and the Glass Slipper and Ali Baba—retell familiar fairy tales in stage-like settings. The brightly colored figures and animals—illustrating old and new storie—exhibited throughout the show—will entice all viewers.—Elizabeth Periale
That's a wonderful image that is surely accompanying Little Red Riding Hood. I must be showing my age by actually remembering books like that from my own childhood!

Droves of Tattoo aficionados on Long Island will soon descend on Nassau Coliseum for United Ink, the region's only tattoo convention.
"Long Island has many great, talented artists and we need a place to all get together and unite, to tattoo in one place together," said Lou Rubino, owner of the Tattoo Lou's tattoo shop chain and event creator. "That’s why I planned this United Ink, to bring the art of tattooing to a whole new level on Long Island."
The convention, which runs July 27 to July 29 will showcase artists from around the world, Rubino said. There will be roughly 250 booths, about 200 having multiple tattoo artists working. About 20 of the booths will be manned by artists from local shops.
In addition to the tattooing, other booths will consist of piercers, tattoo supply companies, tattoo aftercare companies, clothing companies, companies that insure tattoo shops, tattoo attorneys and more.
There won't be a shortage of notable artists at the convention as it will feature three artists from the tattoo reality show Ink Master – winner Shane O'Neill and show contestants Billi Vegas and Al Fliction, star of the reality show NY Ink Megan Massacre, reality show LA Ink star Amy Nicoletto, Bowery Stan, Philadelphia Eddie, Roman Abrego, Chris Torres and more.
Many artists from the Tattoo Lou's shops will also be tattooing and piercing.
Aside from tattooing, the convention will feature a signing by former New York Yankees great Jim Leyritz, the Coney Island Freak Show, a body suspension act, tattoo seminars, contests for best tattoo of the day and much more.
Following each night of the convention, afterparties will go well into the night at surrounding bars and clubs, and Sunday night will feature an awards ceremony at Aura in East Meadow. Doors open at 9 p.m. and tickets are $15.
"It’s awards given out to not only just famous artists but artists that have made an impact on the industry as a whole, that have changed the way society perceives tattooing," said Mark Perez, director or marketing at Tattoo Lou's.
Rubino said he hopes to host roughly 10,000 people each day of the convention. Tickets are $18.50 for a day pass, $40 for a full weekend pass, and children 12-years-old and younger are free. The tickets could be purchased at the Nassau Coliseum box office and via TicketMaster.
Rubino said this convention isn't about his chain of stores but rather a celebration of the tattoo culture.
"The change over the past 10 years or so has been huge and more and more people are seeing this as an art form," he said. "It’s a great art form and there’s a lot of awesome, talented artists out there that need to be seen."

Mortality is on my mind. Morbid? Perhaps. Because I looked at the news? Perhaps. Because I saw the doctor yesterday? Perhaps.
I should be working. Perhaps, then, I would be relieved of a heavy feeling. I have no reason to feel blue. In fact, if a color was needed to understand my day, it would be gold — or platinum. If a gem — a star sapphire. Yes! I shall get my star sapphire ring and put it on — now.
Ah, the weight of a gem makes me feel better which is downright silly. (Am I watching too much British television? Tonight, we shall watch the final episodes of “Downton Abbey”. The drama — comedy — suspense. I just love it.) I do love looking at how the star of the sapphire can be manipulated in the light. Gracious. René gave it to me to wear. I can’t hide it in a box because I think (keyword: think) I may lose it. Thus, with this ring on my hand, I’ll get to work. What music shall I listen to? I will not decide. I will open the case in which I keep CDs at random and let that decide for me. Surprises are best to alleviate blue moods. Actually, I have gotten myself out of this blueness. I am buoyant. I have a star on my finger. I am happy.
Zwerglipatch March 31, 2011 5:05 p.m.
The dauncey feeling I have had for the past couple of days is approaching its apex. I have patched myself up, a bit, by taking cold tablets. I am now drowsy, but not achy — as much. It is odd how one can be blue over bad health. that is not what I meant to say. I shall start again.
It is odd how one ignores ill health by attributing it to a weak mind. One’s mind is strong, however, as I well know, when one’s body is attacked by germs, for lack of a better word at the moment, one tends to forget necessary precautions. Today, with rain outside, I considered that to be the culprit for making me ache — all over. Those two words, “all over” — not just healed bones — should have been the instant key for me to open my mouth to swallow meds that can help. I did. They do work. Fascinating stuff when taking more medicine, drugs, if you will, can help the physical and mental stamina. I have just left the computer. Today was difficult. I had to triple check all I did. The orders kept coming. I think I was, hmm, successful.
I do wish I were successful in writing something of interest. My only success is in the act of writing and not missing a day.
As evening approaches, I think I have a bit of energy to stare at the TV and not much more.

Here’s how we can help your business enter the socialsphere:Here’s how we can help your business enter the socialsphere:
”To be yourself in a world that is constantly trying to make you something else is the greatest accomplishment”—Ralph Waldo Emerson
Here’s how it all began:
As I walked through the 2011 Rhythm and Blues Festival on 18th and Vine District in Kansas City, Missouri, I was tantalized by melodic sounds of jazz, blues, and R&B music infused with hickory wood smoke with sizzling barbecued meats atop. Every display booth spilled over with colorful, vibrant, clothing, jewelry, car detailing, baked goods, and food. But one important element of this glorious day was missing—no customers.
Instantly, my wheels began to click! Why come Kansas City, Missouri does not have a on-line network (community) for small business owners, or better yet, an online business directory? So, with camera in tow, I pitched my elevator speech to attending vendors photographing business profiles through #scocialmedia. I titled the profiles as the EGallery in the next column. Hoping you enjoy these pics as much as I did creating them!

“Bordeaux” Jordan Son of Mars
August 8th, 2012 by John K. | 3 comments
Sometimes it’s minute touches that make a shoe turn out better than expected. Of course with the ‘Bordeaux’ base, you’re already off to a good start, but Jordan Brand decided on punching up this colorway with the hint of minty green on the rubber piece of the outsole. It’s these minor details that cause the “double-take” (the good kind) and end up playing a much larger role, so is this hint of green the right touch for you? Check out the detailed images of this upcoming mid-September release of the Son of Mars below and let us know if these are flown into your radar now that you’ve gotten a better look.

, Teatro Valle Occupato, Rome
Throughout Europe, we are witnessing massive transfers of resources from the public to the private sphere. The political responses to the crises are defined by austerity measures and by cuts to social spending, driving Europe further into recession.
From Greece to Spain, from London to Rome, European people are increasingly aware of the need for a different model of globalisation. From those resisting the privatisation of resources (for example in Italy with the water referendum, and currently in Romania) to the recent occupations of public spaces against neoliberalism (for example in the UK and Spain), this is the moment to construct an alternative Europe which is not a product of neoliberal politics, but the political expression of European citizens.
Within this context, over forty organisations, networks and social movements from eight European countries will meet in the 600-seat Valle Theatre in Rome to organise a common front to construct an alternative European model. This three-day forum will focus on the construction of common transnational campaigns on the thematics of the commons and guaranteed minimum income as well as the battle against precarity, also utilising the new method provided with the European citizens’ initiative. The event will be a true Citizens’ Initiative for a European Charter of the Commons was initiated by the.

At the cliff house, Liam's request took Steffy off-guard. Liam seemed impressed with himself for having done so. Steffy agreed to move in only if she could keep her loft. She didn't want to move too fast, and she thought it was practical to have a place in town in case they needed space or in case they were too tired to drive up to the cliffs one evening. "Let's stay spontaneous and flexible," Steffy decided.
Liam and Steffy cuddled on the sofa, and Steffy said she thoroughly enjoyed living in the moment with no care to the past or future. Recalling that Steffy was into making memories, Liam led her to the bedroom, and they made out on the bed.
In Bill's bedroom, Bill stood naked beside his towel. Brooke's eyes darted around the room as she avoided staring at him, and she explained that she'd been looking for Will's blanket. It was in her hands, so Bill guessed she'd found it.
The two stared at each other, and Bill remarked that any other woman would have run from the room by then -- or at least covered her eyes. Brooke figured that in business, Bill was use to waiting until the other person blinked. "Put your towel on, Stallion," she ordered. He complied, and as she left the room, he said she was one in a million. "You, too," she replied, closing the door.
At Katie's hideout, Taylor warned Katie that Brooke was getting close to Bill and Will, and Katie could lose her family forever. Katie said she could feel her body giving out a little more each day, and she refused to let her son become attached to her. Taylor replied that everyone was dying, but Katie contended that her situation was different. Katie felt that she had a year or less to live, and she said that if God had any compassion, he'd take her at that very moment.
Taylor tried to calm Katie down, but Katie ordered Taylor to get out. Katie also threatened to bolt if she saw anyone resembling Brooke or Bill out on the nearby streets. Taylor reassured Katie that she had Taylor's confidence. Katie screamed at God that she was ready to have a heart attack and die. Taylor said it was the depression talking, but Katie begged God to take her.
At Big Bear, Eric tucked a pillow behind Stephanie's head as she sat on the sofa. Rick called Eric's phone, and Eric answered it at Stephanie's urging. Rick claimed he hated to interrupt Eric and Stephanie; however, he said Thomas intended to put his plans to a vote. Rick feared that, if Thomas got his way, it could cost the company over ten million dollars.
Eric grew grim. He didn't think Thomas' ideas were right for the business, either. Rick asked Eric to return for the vote, but Eric replied that he wasn't in town. Though Rick felt bad about the timing, he said the future of Forrester was at risk. Eric told Rick to try to stall things, and Eric would call back later.
After the call, the frail Stephanie said Eric should be there. Eric, however, refused to leave her. Stephanie knew how much the business still meant to him, even if he'd let "the boys" have charge of it, so she suggested that he call Brooke. "She wants to see me, I know. She'll come," Stephanie decided.
Eric called Brooke, who was still at Bill's house, and said he had to get to Forrester for a vote on Thomas' agenda. Eric explained that he didn't want to leave Stephanie alone, and she'd asked for Brooke. Eric swore Brooke to secrecy about their Big Bear location, and Brooke agreed to go there right away.
When Eric returned to Stephanie in the main room, he found her sleeping with a photo album on her lap. The book was open to pictures of Ridge. Stephanie awakened and hoped that Eric wasn't upset that she'd asked Ridge not to be there. She felt that Ridge was a lot like Eric. Proud to have been Ridge's father, Eric stated that Ridge had been her greatest gift to him. She uttered that she loved Eric, and her words turned into a coughing spurt. "You're okay," the pained Eric sweetly uttered.
Eric went to change into a suit, and Stephanie flashed back to being outside at the party with Brooke, who hadn't understood why Stephanie was going away to die. When Eric returned in his suit, Stephanie said he was the most handsome man in the room. Remarking that he was the only man in the room, Eric said that she was controlling and incorrigible, and he loved it.
Stephanie told Eric not to get sentimental, but Eric persisted in saying what was on his heart. He was tortured that she'd leave him, but he was grateful for "all the pain in the ass" that she had been. He felt grateful to have called her his partner, his wife, and the bane of his existence. They expressed their love for each other and stared tenderly at one another.
Brooke arrived, and on the doorstep, Eric thanked her for being there. He said that Stephanie wasn't good, and Brooke wondered if he really should be leaving at that time. Eric said that it was what Stephanie wanted. "She wants to be with you," he added and promised to return as quickly as he could.
Before he left, Eric awakened Stephanie, who'd nodded off, and he asked her to keep her Irish eyes smiling for him. She kissed him and ordered him to straighten the boys out. Eric left, and wincing in pain, Stephanie said she was glad that Brooke was there. "Me, too," Brooke replied.
In the CEO's office, Pam was surprised to hear that Eric would be there for the meeting. Rick replied that he'd had to take some kind of action to stop Thomas from steamrolling his agenda through. Pam thought it was good that Eric would be there, but she wondered about Stephanie. Rick explained that Brooke would tend to Stephanie. Pam began to cry. "So you know where she is?" Pam asked. Sympathetically, Rick responded that he didn't have any idea.
At Katie's, Katie wanted Taylor to leave so that Katie could die alone. Taylor refused, and Taylor insisted that Katie was not dying. Katie disagreed.
Katie reiterated that she was dying because she felt like her heart was going to explode. Taylor called the hospital and told Katie they were leaving for the hospital. Katie continued to argue. She said that she wanted to die alone. Taylor refused to listen and took Katie to the hospital.
At the hospital, Katie said she wanted to leave, but Dr. Caspary, Dr. Meade, and Taylor got Katie into a hospital bed in a room for evaluation. The medical staff checked Katie's vital signs, and Taylor noted that some of Katie's symptoms were indicative of anxiety. Dr. Caspary and Dr. Meade agreed but said that blood work would quickly indicate if anything was wrong with Katie's heart. The doctors left Katie alone with Taylor.
Katie started freaking out that she wanted to return home. Taylor reminded Katie that home was not the apartment that Katie had rented. Taylor said that home was where Bill and the baby were waiting for Katie. Taylor continually tried to calm Katie, but it didn't work.
Katie clutched her chest and screamed that she had to leave. Dr. Caspary and Dr. Meade returned. Katie pulled off all the monitoring equipment, jumped out of the bed, and said she was leaving. The doctors tried to restrain Katie, but Katie fought and screamed at everyone to leave her alone and stop touching her.
At Forrester, Thomas and Steffy met privately, and Thomas said that he needed Steffy's support to move the company forward. Thomas knew that he would get objections from most of the family. Steffy agreed to support him.
Steffy and Thomas discussed that Steffy had returned to live with Liam. Thomas hoped that she was happy. Steffy said that she and Liam were moving slowly, and Steffy wanted her independence. Steffy wanted to retain her own condo in the city, and Liam would keep the beach house.
Outside the office, Rick, Caroline, and Thorne discussed that Thomas was moving too fast. Rick regretted that he had begged Eric to return to Forrester for the meeting. Thorne and Caroline supported Rick and told him that they needed Eric to talk some sense into Thomas. Thorne entered the office for the meeting, and Caroline told Rick that he had done the right thing when he contacted Eric. They kissed, and Rick thanked her for her support.
Eric showed up outside the office, and he talked to Pam. Eric said that Stephanie was not doing well. Pam tearfully begged Eric to let her go to Stephanie. Eric said that Stephanie had asked for Brooke to stay with her while Eric was gone. Eric said the company needed Pam to stay at the office.
Pam tearfully acknowledged that she would not be much help to Stephanie. Pam said that she wanted to hold Stephanie's hand in her dying moments, but she understood Stephanie's wishes. Eric hugged her.
Eric entered the office where Marcus, Thomas, Thorne, Caroline, and Rick argued about Thomas' plans for the future. Thomas said that the company needed a total overhaul, and Steffy and Marcus agreed that the company had been stuck in the 90s.
Rick reminded Thomas that Thomas was the interim CEO, and it was not his decision to spend millions to go in another direction. Eric interrupted and said that he wanted to make the meeting quick so he could return to Stephanie. Eric added that Thomas had been appointed interim CEO and was to maintain the status quo until Ridge had determined the next move the company would make. Eric reminded Thomas that Eric had been CEO for many years. Eric said it was never a good idea to make impulsive decisions.
Thomas agreed. He told the group that he had researched his ideas and had a business plan that required upfront costs but would pay off in a few years. Thomas noted that Caroline's designs could be the new ideas the company needed.
Eric wondered if Thomas was suggesting some type of voting agenda immediately, and Thomas said that he was prepared to vote his dad's stock and Taylor's stock. Everyone was surprised that Thomas wanted to push his ideas through so quickly without Ridge present.
At Big Bear, Stephanie was in pain. She coughed and used the oxygen. Brooke comforted Stephanie.
Stephanie wanted Brooke to assure her that the family would take care of Eric and keep him involved in decision-making at Forrester. Brooke agreed. Stephanie said that Eric needed to put his energy into the company once Stephanie was gone.
Brooke and Stephanie joked about old times. Brooke said the cabin held many memories. "Quite a journey we've taken," Brooke said. Stephanie asked if she looked as bad as she felt. Brooke told her she looked wonderful. Brooke rubbed some ointment on Stephanie's lips. Stephanie thanked her.
Brooke brushed Stephanie's hair, and Stephanie asked if Brooke had brushed Hope's hair the same way. Stephanie asked if Hope had loved to have her hair combed. Brooke said that Hope had loved it. Brooke left for a moment and returned with a brooch for Stephanie. They both laughed, and Brooke pinned the jewelry on Stephanie's pajamas. Stephanie teased Brooke to be careful because she didn't want Brooke to nick a major artery.
Stephanie had a scary coughing spell where she couldn't catch her breath. Brooke administered some additional medicine under Stephanie's tongue. Stephanie struggled to catch her breath, and Brooke and Stephanie noticed that Stephanie was coughing up blood. Stephanie looked frightened, and Brooke hugged her and told her not to worry.
At the hospital, Katie had been restrained in a bed, and she claimed it was unnecessary. Katie said that her body was nothing but scars, and Bill wouldn't be able to stand looking at her. Katie called attention to her scar from heart surgery and the scar from her C-section.
Taylor took the opportunity to remind Katie that Katie cared very much what Bill thought -- a far cry from what Katie had said. Taylor noted that Katie cared about Bill and Will, and Taylor forced Katie to remember her family. Katie said she had failed at everything she had done, including working with Taylor. Katie ordered that she no longer wanted Taylor involved in her care.
Taylor stepped outside the hospital room and called Bill's home. Donna answered. Donna asked if there was anything she could do to help Katie. Taylor looked thoughtful and later returned to Katie's room. Taylor told Katie that she had once given up a baby and lost her mind.
Taylor reminded Katie that Katie's body had suffered trauma, and in her mind, Katie was caught in a repetitive cycle. Katie cried and said that she had ruined her life. Taylor disagreed. Taylor noted that Katie's family was waiting for her. Katie looked up and saw Donna, who stood outside, carrying the baby.
At Big Bear, Stephanie's health was clearly deteriorating. Brooke read to Stephanie, and Stephanie interrupted to ask where her mother was. As Brooke read a book about a son who had not returned to his home, the book became too real for Brooke, and Brooke became uncomfortable. Brooke said she wanted to choose another book, and Stephanie grabbed her hand. Brooke asked what Stephanie needed, and Stephanie said, "Forgiveness."
Stephanie admitted that she had told Ridge not to return for the party, Stephanie said that she did not want Ridge to see her so sick. Stephanie added that she was the shallow and vain one after accusing Brooke of the same thing for many years. Stephanie said that she had sent the one person whom she had loved most in the world away, and she would never see him again.
Brooke said that it might be for the best because if Ridge had been there, he would have been inconsolable. Instead, Brooke added that Brooke was there for both of them, and there was nothing to forgive on Stephanie's part.
Brooke and Stephanie looked outside and watched a deer grazing on the nearby landscape. Stephanie said that it was time, and Brooke asked if it was time for more medicine, but Stephanie said it was time to go outside.
Brooke argued, but Stephanie insisted that she wanted to feel the sun on her face one more time. Brooke said, "I'm afraid."
"I'll take care of you," Stephanie said.
They ventured outside and sat mesmerized by the beautiful scenery.
At Forrester, Eric said he was losing his way of life and way of living along with his wife. "It's all slipping away," he said.
Eric and Thorne argued that Thomas was moving too fast at changing the company. Eric said that Thomas should put his plan in place at the Rodeo Drive location as a test. If it worked there, they could roll it out elsewhere. The family agreed..

Pasadena-based eHarmony has launched a gay and lesbian web site, Compatible Partners, which the firm says will help gay and lesbian singles to find long-term relationships. The site--which came about as a result of a legal settlement with the state of New Jersey--said it will use questionnaires to match users values, attitudes, personality traits, and interests. eHarmony said that pricing for Compatible Partners will be the same as eHarmony.com. eHarmony said it would launch a same-sex web site back in November of 2008, after reaching a deal with the state of New Jersey to settle charges that the firm was in violation of that state's discrimination laws. The firm had previously refused to accept gay members to its flagship site.

Authenication Fails when trying to login to client via Edge
- Tuesday, July 14, 2009 7:30 PMHello all,
I'm having issues getting OCS working outside of our network. OCS works fine internally but not when a user tries to connect from home. We have an Edge and ISA server setup and all firewall ports that are needed are open.
When a client tries to connect externally they get to the point to enter their password. At that point it will not let the password through. I know the password is correct but it just doesn't work. I traced the packets and the Egde and the client are "talking". Our user does have remote access enabled.
When I try to validate the Edge server I get the below error.
Maximum hops: 2
Failed to register user: User sip:testuser@testdomain @ Server internalpool.testdomain
Failed to send SIP request: outgoing TLS negotiation failed; HRESULT=-2146893022.
All Replies
- Wednesday, July 15, 2009 12:47 PMSo when you say the client and edge are talking can you explain more? usually if all of that is working and the client is hitting the edge correctly they it is a problem with the next hop from the edge server to your internal environment. Are you setup with Dual NIC's on the edge?
Take a look at the event logs on the edge server you may see where it is having cert issues with the internal server or Name resolution problems. Be sure you can telnet from the edge to the next hop server i.e. director or pool. on port 5061.
let us know if that helps.
mitch
- Wednesday, July 15, 2009 1:31 PMMitch,
Thanks for the reply!
Sorry for not explaining myself a little better. I'm new to using packet sniffers. What I mean by "talking" is that the external client is sending and receiving packets from the edge server. It starts out with TCP and then changes to TLSv2.
On the Edge server we have 2 NIC's. One NIC is for the internal traffic and the other is external. The external NIC has 3 public non-NAT IP Addresses.
I'm able to successfully telnet 5061 from the Egde to the pool. No issues there.
On the edge server I see the below 2 warings in the event log.
7/15/2009 2:11:50AM OCS Certificate Manager 1016 31007
The CRL could not be downloaded for certificate:.
7/14/2009 2:13:09AM OCS Certificate Manager 1016 31007.
Could this be my problem?
Thanks,
Keith
- Wednesday, July 15, 2009 1:46 PMNo that usually is not the cause of this type of problem. Do you have Gateways for both nics? if so remove the one for the internal nic and be sure you put a route in the route table so the edge can route to your internal IP's also check to make sure that the outside NIC is set to not register in DNS. Then check DNS to make sure it is not regestering in your internal DNS.
Also check the logs on the ocs server.
mitch
- Wednesday, July 15, 2009 1:53 PMMitch,
Only the External NIC as a default gateway. We make a static route to route the traffic to the internal network. I assume it works because we can ping the internal OCS server with no issues. I checked the to make sure that the external NIC is not registering.
We do have the internal NIC set to register. Should I remove that check mark?
Thanks for your help!
Keith
- Wednesday, July 15, 2009 2:02 PMModeratorReigstering the internal NIC is typically correct, depending on what DENS server you are using and what FQDN you've defined for DNS resolution for the Internal Edge.
Is this a Standard Edition deployment or an Enterprise with an HLB?
Jeff Schertz, PointBridge | MVP | MCITP: Enterprise Messaging | MCTS: OCS
- Wednesday, July 15, 2009 2:03 PMNo you should leave it. So based on the error it says it failed to make a TLS connection this is usually a Certificate issue in most cases. I have seen in some it is a connection issue but often it is a cert issue. Which could be the cert in 3 places basically.
First check you Edge cert for you public side. Does it have a subject name? if so does it match the FQDN that the client is looking for and or connecting to from the outside?
Check the internal nic Certificate to be sure it has a subject name and is trusted by the internal pool front end server. Check the logs on the front end as well for errors.
I usually setup the edge server to pass the FQDN of the server so it is not just passing the host name.
you can do this by going into properties under my computer where you usually add it to the domain and select more then you can add the domain name as a primary DNS suffix even though it is not a memeber of the domain. This way it will pass the FQDN while trying to establish the tls connection with the pool frontend server.
mitch
- Wednesday, July 15, 2009 3:37 PMThis is what I have in our test domain.
Internal OCS Server / SQL Server 2005 - Server 2008 X64
External Edge - Server 2008 X64
ISA Server - Server 2003 X32
We did a consolidated FE server using Enterprise edition. Internal OCS works fine at this point. I just checked the FE server and there are no errors or warnings. It almost seems like the edge is not passing traffic through to the FE pool.
- Wednesday, July 15, 2009 3:38 PMMitch,
All the certificates subjects match up with the FQDN's. I'm totally baffled on this one.
Thanks for your help!
Keith
- Wednesday, July 15, 2009 11:58 PM
Well I would walk it through the basics again. also pull a wireshark trace just to see the connections happening. At the same time start a debug session on the edge and the pool server. check the sip stack for tracing and see if it shows anything at all.

I've tried all the above and nothing seemed to fix my issue. I can successfully do anonymous Live Meetings via the Edge but the MOC will just not authenticate.
We are behind two firewalls but we don't have any control over them. We have to submit a rules request and another agency opens them up for us. We have had them pull logs and we can't find any thing being denied by either of them.
I'm kind of stumped on this one.
Again, thanks for your help.

MSDN Referral
- Saturday, July 21, 2012 8:02 PM
So I bought MS Office Professional 2010. On the back of the package is a small asterisk followed by "*Licensed for noncommercial use on up to 3 home PCs"
Foolishly, I assumed that I could install it on three noncommercial PCs in my home!
I did not do this all at once, but I first installed it on my desktop computer, which I use for banking, desktop publishing (flyers, etc., for home use). I had surgery in April and to entertain myself I purchased a new laptop computer and I installed it on that one.
My desktop computer has been getting slower and slower, it was quite old, and I didn't know what else to do except replace it. It was time. So I bought a new comptuer two weeks ago and have slowly been moving in-as time allowed. This morning I decided it was time to use my third installation.
This is when the fun started. I ran the installation program but in the end it said I did not have a proper license. I ran the wizard and it gave me the six-digit times nine section number. I ran it through the automated program and it told me my license was only good for two installations. In disagreement, I called the telephone number provided and i got a human autobot in, I believe, India. She ran the same steps that I had just done on the automated portion and stated the same thing. She was INSISTANT that since I bought a 'professional' product that I only get two installations because it's not for home use. I persisted in the conversation and she went and got a supervisor, but did not put them on the line. I could hear (but not understand) the conversation between them, and they both insisted that I only get two installations, although my packaging says I got three. I confused them further when I asked them to assist me in directing me where I needed to go to escalate my concern.
This is where you come in. They told me to call MSDN at 1-800-754-5474. When I called I discovered your office is closed (it's Saturday). So I came to this forum to leave my comments and concernes. I am at a total loss where to go next, and I highly doubt I am even in the right place. All I know is I thought I was buying a three-installation product and I have used it twice. My package says three, Microsoft says I only get two. I didn't know that a private party could not purchase MS Office Professional without being considered a commercial user. If that is so, as Miss India told me, am further confused why the package for MS Office Professional 2010 would state that it was a three-computer installation - unless, of course, it could be installed three times in a business but only two times in a private home?
See why I'm confused? I love MS Publisher. That's the reason I got the Professional version. Otherwise the regular Home version would have been adequate.
Someone, please help me!

Mrs9838,
May i know from where you purchased MS Office Pro 2010. According to Microsoft Store and Office Store Office Pro 2010 allows only upto 2 PCs single user installation. Please check the below links for more information.
Check this link to know more about Office 2010 Suites -

i'm going to have to agree with Pratha's response here. Wherever you bought Office, you're going to have to go back to that source for issues. I dont see how MSDN is involved, or can assist, unless you've purchased an MSDN Subscription, which it doesn't sound like you have. Perhaps the person recommended that you purchase an MSDN Subscription to meet your needs? I dont know why they said what they did.
But: You should try asking your office question over the Office section of. Questions about Office packaging and office capabilities are definitely off topic here.
Since I dont see what this has to do with MSDN, and its a couple of weeks old, I'm going to move this post to off topic. Mrs9838, please feel free to repost here in the MSDN Subscriptions feedback forum with your specific questions about MSDN.
Thanks,

Increase the width of the "Total" Text field automatically in a SSRS/BIDS report?
- Friday, August 31, 2012 9:27 PM
Hi I am designing a sales report using Business Intelligence Development studio. I have a table that shows the sales quote line items - such as product ID, Unit price, Quantity and line total and at the bottom of this table, I display the totals. The totals are displayed in another table just below as shown before.
Now, sometimes, I have larger values - and I want the width of the columns (especially the Totals) to increase automatically to the left (and reducing the adjacent column say "product description" column proportionately such that the total width of the table remains the same). For all columns in the table, I set the "Can Increase to Yes and Can Shrink to No". {should i set Yes to Can Shrink}
I notice that the total column in the report doesn't increase it's width when the numbers are too large and the digits are displayed in the next row!!
The Results display like below
Any help is highly appreciated. Thank you

Hi CRM,
Reporting Service does not allow you to dynamically adjust the width of the textbox, only option you can control is "CanGrow" and "CanShrink" only affect the vertical size.
In order to fix the data in the same cell, you can dynamically adjust the "Font Size" based on the expression passed.(Reduced the Font size if more number of digits present).

- Monday, September 03, 2012 12:49 PMThanks Harsh. I appreciate it. Could you point me some examples of how I can change the font size - is there a sample code i can refer to? or could I be able to configure in the text box property?
- Monday, September 03, 2012 4:33 PM
Hi,
Yes it text box property and press F4 to open the properties window, Under Font you will find the FontSize, set it based on expression.
For Example :FontSize =IIF(<<Value>> < 9999.99, 10, 8) etc

Hi Harsha, Thanks but I need clarification. the <<value>> refer to the font size or the width of the text box?
Current Settings for the text box (table): 1 inch; Cambria font size 10; the size of the text box is 1 inch.
I could hardcode something like this:
=IIF(len(Fields!totalamountValue)>10,"8Pt","10pt"). But what if, after changing to 8pt, it still exceeds the width of the text box?
Could you elaborate on this? Thank you

Hi,
<<Value>> refers to field value coming from dataset , Your example use the expression prefectly, Since the ssrs does not allow to write expression in width column (Therefore you can't set it dynamically), we can try the other hacks like settting the font size,changing the font or setting the font weight based on the value coming in the field.
Otherwise you have to live with CanGrow and CanShrink options, but it only allow textbox to grow vertically.

Russell Brand Katy Perry Wedding Oct. 2010 Maui, Hawaii

Filed under: katy perry | Tags: hawaii, katy perry, maui, Russell Brand, wedding
British comedian Russell Brand and pop star Katy Perry will tie the knot in a fall ceremony off the coast of Maui this October, celebrity tattles tell The NY Post’s Page Six spies.
The quirky couple have kept the blogosphere guessing about the details surrounding their nups since Russell — an ex-sex addict — propsed to Katy after three months of dating during a trip to India last December. Despite previous rumors placing the weddings in Thailand, India, and Britain, snoops insists this scoop is solid.

…is one of my favorite movies. Not only because I enjoy the yucky love stuff, but also because of THIS scene. I’m sorry, it’s adorable. Any (if not every) girl yearns to feel that to someone else they are the world. That their someone else would be brave and bold and put their heart on the line, and tell her that she’s it. She’s the one.
Regardless of age or time of year, moments like the one in the Love Actually video will always touch my heart. It’s a different feeling from that felt pre-engagement, but still gets to that vulnerable, happy place where little kid dreams live.
But these next videos… awe, man, tears were pouring down my face. This 2011/2012 proposal/engagement season has not been impressive because of the slew of bridal marketing being done, but because of the engagements themselves. Watch and see what you think.
See what I mean? I love ‘em! They get you in that usually-protected, raw, gushy place in your heart.
Props to the proposers. We’re looking forward to stepping up our razzle dazzle wedding planning game not just for the brides but for the ’12-’13 grooms!

When.
The YouTube team announced yesterday that since the new design launched in December, “daily unique visits to channels have increased by 60 percent” and “daily net subscriptions are up 50 percent.” Not too shabby, eh?
Along with this news came the announcement that yesterday the new channel design went live for everyone. If you hadn’t updated your channel yet on your own, YouTube has now done it for you, so don’t be surprised if you head over to your channel today and things are looking a bit different. You’ll have a little bit of setting up to do, as you now have four channel template options to choose from. We’ve put together a helpful guide to help you get set up with your new YouTube channel design.
The YouTube team also pointed out some new features that have been added to the channel design since it was updated in December:
- A Featured tab has been added to let users display feature content more prominently
- Favorites have become more accessible and are now a customizable part of your channel
- You can now link to your +Page or Google+ Profile directly from your YouTube channel
Have you set up your new YouTube channel yet? Have you noticed a boost in channel visits or subscribers since the new design went.

I am trying to force the SDK to use idc_level 30 and I am setting CodecLevel to MFX_LEVEL_AVC_3 in order to do this.
This doesn't seem to have any effect. On the target machine, a recent I5 machine (hardware encoding), an examination of the H.264 stream generated by the SDK shows that idc_level=32.
The reason for wanting level 30 is that Windows Media Player can't play our MP4 files properly on some machines. On machines where Media SDK defaults to idc_level=30, our MP4 files play fine. On machines where Media SDK uses idc_level=32, the file opens but freezes at the first frame. Needless to say, VLC plays the files fine, so this looks like a bug in WMP, but one we would like to work around by forcing idc_level=30.
Any ideas on why CodecLevel is not being honoured by Media SDK?

During.
Take Action on This Issue.
The U.S. attorney general explains in a logical manner why it is legal and lawful in some circumstances for a U.S. president to order the “targeted killing” of an American citizen. These deaths shouldn’t be called “assassinations,” the attorney general says, because assassinations are “unlawful killing” and, if the president approves it, then it’s not “unlawful.” More veils fall—“a person is innocent until proven guilty”; “intelligent people will make morally right decisions.” Our soul runs terror-stricken into the dark woods; our complicity with evil simply too much to bear.
THOMAS MERTON describes these moments as encounters with the Unspeakable. “It is the emptiness of ‘the end,’” Merton writes. “Not necessarily the end of the world, but a theological point of no return, a climax of absolute finality in refusal, in equivocation, in disorder, in absurdity ...” In the face of the Unspeakable, our nakedness is complete. All meaning is stripped away. Our carefully collected coverings lie in a heap. We are running into a silent, disorienting night.
Merton writes that the emptiness of the Unspeakable “can be broken open again to truth only by a miracle, by the coming of God.” This is the Easter story. This is our resurrection hope.
In utter exhaustion, we begin to feel the coolness of the night air chilling our exposed skin. The musty scent of olive leaves rises up from the ground. Moonlight uncovers a barely discernible trail through the woods. Night birds chitter in the branches, calling to one another for comfort. Ahead there is a campfire in the rocks. Still naked and bleeding we move closer.
Jesus turns his face to us. “Come. Sit by the fire. Let me get you something to eat.”
