More evidence appears every day that the health and beauty benefits of vinegar are real and varied. Growing up in the '70s and '80s, we heard about vinegar for pickling veggies, dressing salads, and cleaning different surfaces around the house. (Let's not forget about the whispered benefits of vinegar douching– more about that in a minute.) But can you remember ever hearing your mother talk about how it made her skin feel fantastic? Or helped digestion after a big meal? If so, your mother was *way* ahead of her time.
And times are a-changin'.
Vinegar for Weight Loss and Digestion
Celebrity nutritionist Cherie Calbom (55), nicknamed "The Juice Lady," a big fan of vinegar's health and beauty benefits. Cherie holds a Master of Science degree in whole foods nutrition from Bastyr University and has authored 35 books on how nutrition can tackle everything from weight loss to cancer cleanses. She understands the science and the positive impact vinegar can have on a woman's overall well being.
Cherie's favorite way to incorporate vinegar for weight loss? Juicing, of course! "Good diets are as much about committing to change your internal landscape as they are about changing your outward appearance," she says. By replacing one or two meals a day with one of her signature juice cocktails, you can reap serious benefits. Take for instance, this "Apple Cider Vinegar Fat Buster" recipe:
1 qt. purified water
2 tbsp. apple cider vinegar (raw)
2 tbsp. lemon juice
1 tsp. ground ginger
1 tsp. cinnamon
Dash of cayenne pepper
Several drops of stevia to taste
Mix all ingredients together. Drink a glass 20 minutes before a meal.
Note: Vinegar can erode tooth enamel so be sure to rinse your mouth out or brush your teeth when finished drinking your juice.
Securely buy Cherie's book "Sipping Skinny" from Amazon.com for more healthy juice recipes and information.
Why is apple cider vinegar (ACV) especially important for women who are over 40? Cherie quickly responded these health and beauty benefits of vinegar:
1. It helps kill bacteria and fungus in the digestive tract, according to a 2014 study.
2. Helps to lower cholesterol, according to a 2012 study published in Life Science Journal that found that apple cider vinegar improved blood lipids overall.
3. It's rich in antioxidants–caffeic acid, catechin, epicatechin, gallic acid and p-coumaric acid.
4. Helps with weight loss. Drink 20 minutes before a meal. It may decrease the glycemic effects of a meal. (Journal of Food Science )
5. It helps with indigestion; mix in water and drink before a meal.
6. Can help muscles relax and reduce leg cramps.
"What if I'm sensitive to vinegar?"
Enter kombucha vinegar. According to KombuchaHome.com, "Kombucha vinegar, if matured fully, contains about 2% acetic acid. As opposed to regular vinegars such as apple cider vinegar or spirit vinegar which contains 5%. The acetic acid is what determines vinegar's strength, so kombucha vinegar is a lot milder than regular vinegar." The page includes a recipe on how to make and bottle it at home.
Vinegar for Beauty
This one might come as a surprise, but vinegar's skincare use dates back to the 18th century. Unfortunately, combining it with lead to whiten the face became quite trendy and resulted in devastating symptoms, according to CIREM.com, until lead was outlawed by the FDA in 1906. Today, we hear about all kinds of "acids" in our cosmetic applications, and vinegar is definitely acidic. It stands to reason that there are benefits.
On BeWell.com, Deborah Burnes (CEO and Co-founder of natural beauty product line Sumbody), tells us "With a pH similar to skin, AVC helps restore and balance your skin's pH and acid mantle. This too is key to healthy, beautiful skin. The acid mantle is the combination of sebum (oil) and perspiration on the skin's surface. This barrier protects the skin and makes it less vulnerable to environmental damage (smog, sun and wind), less prone to dehydration, and also inhibits the growth of foreign bacteria and fungi (enabling skin to be healthier and have fewer breakout and blemishes. Acne, allergies and other skin problems become more severe as the skin becomes more alkaline)."

"Its delicately-scented biphasic texture concentrates 18 officinal plants in the essence phase and fruit vinegar in the watery phase. It helps remove makeup residue, smoothes the skin and helps eliminate dead cells. It refines skin texture and tightens pores. It clarifies and refreshes skin's complexion."

According to PopSugar, ACV beauty benefits include:
- removing hair product buildup on hair (get rid of that brassiness)
- minimizing dandruff
- soothing razor bumps
- cleaning makeup brushes
- easing sunburn

Vinegar for "Down There"
This one is a bit trickier. Reports show that while vinegar douches can help a number of ailments like vaginal yeast infections, it can also incite them. Livestrong.com posted this article about the benefits of vinegar douching, while WebMD cites a number of risks involved, such as creating a vaginal infection, ectopic pregnancies, and Pelvic Inflammatory Diseases.
You've heard it a million times: talk to your doctor before treating yourself at home. Symptoms you are trying to treat may be the result of more serious medical problems.

Introduction: Wooden Gamekeeper Catapults/Slingshot
Hey guys, this is an awesome stuff. You can do anything with it. You can hunt with it, you can play with it, and protect yourselves from any animal. So lets start with it.
Step 1: Choosing the Right Wood and Materials
Bike tyre tube
rubber adhesive(Optional)
broad leather strip(I got it from my old leather shoes.)
It is important to choose the wood correctly, otherwise when you will stretch the elastic band holding the wooden base, it will broke down. Names of woods which are useful to make it are:
oak, softwoods, timbers, Indian babul, Gunde (tree), Jackfruit, Arjun, Pine, Rosewood, Cedar (All types will work), etc.
Here, I had used the wood of Cordia tree (Gunde).
Remember, use a thick one. Enough thick, too make it easy for you to grip it.
Step 2: Cutting Into Shape
You will need a V shaped thick wooden stick with a short handle. Short Handle will reduce the efforts and will increase the grip. It will be the best choice. Cut all other branches or leaves except that V shaped piece.
Step 3: Giving Extra Grip and Strength the Your Slingshot
For this step, you would need a bike's inner rubber tube. Use a old one so that no money would be wasted. This step is somewhere tricky, so take the help of the photos also.
First step : Cut the strips of the rubber as shown in the pictures.
Second step : Wind the strips around the basic structure of the capault in such a manner that it covers the whole and remember to cut the extra pieces.
Third ste p: After w inding up the rubber strips around the basic structure, stick the ends of the rubber strips with a rubber adhesive. It would be a temporary solution.
Step 4: Cutting the Sections and Elastic Strings
Now, you will need four more rubber strips. Two broad and long, and two narrow strips.
Put the two broad strips first. Put them on both the ends one by one as shown in the first picture.
Then wind the narrow ones around the broad ones, one by one. Make it sure that you have tied it properly, so that when you stretch the rubber band, it doesn't broke down. Cut the extra piece.
Cut out a leather piece, enough big to cover your palm. Make two small sections near the end of that leather piece.
Insert the other end of the broad strip into these sections and turn it over and then stick it as shown in the last picture. It is a temporary solution.
Step 5: Finishing
Cut down two narrow strips of rubber. Tie both of them simutaneously on both the sides of the launcher where you have stick the rubber. Tie a knot there and make it as tight as you can. Cut the extra piece.
Now, go and do whatever you wnat to do with it. Just remember, I am not responsible for any damage caused by this stuff.

Hello, I'm here with a Valentine for today's design. It features Spellbinders Die D-Lites "Swallow and Bird" and a Stamp Simply Clear stamp sentiment from the "Thinking of You Rose" stamp set.
I began with Ranger Watercolor paper. The top layer of the card is embossed using Spellbinders M-Bossabilities "Enchanted" embossing folder. You can find other beautiful folders HERE.
I die cut the image pieces with the Die D-Lites set from the same watercolor paper. The pieces were then watercolored with Tim Holtz Distress Tattered Rose, Stormy Sky, Tumbled Glass, Bundled Sage, Mustard Seed, and Lipstick Red inks.
I simple dabbed the ink pad directly onto my Ranger Craft Mat, sprayed with water in my Tim Holtz Distress Sprayer, then painted the die cuts with watercolor brushes until I was happy with the general effect.
After the die cuts dried, I stamped the Stamp Simply "Thinking of You Rose" sentiment onto the heart using Tonic's Tim Holtz Stamp Platform and Versafine Onyx Black ink.
Layers were popped up with Thermoweb 3D Foam Strip pieces, and TomBow Mono Multi Liquid Glue was used to adhere the die cuts together. A May Art's 1/4" Silk ribbon bow and Kaisercraft Rhinestones add a bit of pretty.
I was pleased with the old fashioned appeal in the outcome and hope that you like it too! Thanks for stopping by!
All linked supplies are from The Stamp Simply Ribbon Store.

I was flipping though my copy of The Fault in Our Stars today and I remember reading The Fault in Our Stars for the first time and reading this quote. I remember pausing a little to read it again because it was so beautifully accurate. Whatever faults I have with this book (pun intended) I know that this is one of my favorite quotes of all time. [SPOILER] It's the part when Hazel is eulogizing Augustus in the church? before he dies. I don't remember where.
"I can't talk about our love story, so I will talk about math. I am not a mathematician, but I know this: There are infinite numbers between 0 and 1. There's .1 and .12 and .112 and infinite collection of others. Of course, there is a Bigger infinite set of numbers between 0 and 2, or between 0 and a million. Some infinities are bigger than other infinities. A writer we used to like taught us that. There are days, many of them, when I resent the size of my unbounded set. I want more numbers than I'm likely to get, and God, I want more numbers for Augustus Waters than he got. But, Gus, my love, I cannot tell you how thankful I am for our little infinity. I wouldn't trade it for the world. You gave me a forever within the numbered days, and I'm grateful."
I love this quote because I love the feeling of feeling infinite. Perks of Being a Wallflower touched on this too. But more than that, it perfectly captures in better ways than most quotes what it's like to truly be living in one moment and falling in love with it.
At first, I wondered, what does it mean to feel infinite. Infinite? Like you mean, feeling like you're immortal? feeling like you could take on the world? Tossing your cares to the wind? Rolling? 😉 Check all of the above.
But I've come to realize that infinite moments aren't necessary the big ones, the ones where something momentous happens to you, although that is certainly would boost your mood. When I feel infinite, it is when I'm riding in the passenger seat with my friends, on a breezy cold night, driving back to my apartment but instead turning the car around and going to a restaurant an hour away. It is when we spontaneously decide to go to the beach at midnight on a Tuesday, wanting to feel the night air on our cheeks, the ocean at night. Or huddled in my room on a Friday laughing about anything and everything. Even sometimes a party where everyone's having a good time and you can't help but feel caught in the moment.
So maybe feeling infinite is about feeling alive and euphoric amidst normality.

Ubuntu: Let's mount a 'NFS Share'.
NFS (Network File System) allows you to access shared directory from Linux preserving Files and Directories Ownerships and Permissions.
The computer sharing the directory is called the 'NFS Server' (it can be NAS server, for example) and the computers or devices connecting to that server are called 'NFS clients'. Clients need to use the mount command to access the shared directory.
nfs-common package is needed, let's install it via APT:
root@test:~# apt-get install nfs-common
List All Shared Directories from
root@test:~# showmount -e <Server-IP> Export list for <Server-IP>: /Public /Download
Mount Shared Directory (from Client):
root@test:~# mkdir /nfs root@test:~# mount -o soft,intr,rsize=8192,wsize=8192 \ <Server-IP>:/Public /nfs
Mount NFS Automatically After Reboot:
root@test:~# vim /etc/fstab
Append the following line:
<Server-IP>:/Public /nfs nfs soft,intr,rsize=8192,wsize=8192
Note: Specific options can be found via MAN Pages or consulting Linux Official Documentation.

The past few trips I've become really fascinated with shooting the tree from the It's a Bug Life exit. I've found there's no better time to try it than when they are running one of the shows as you get so many different color schemes to attempt to capture. Add in a few lasers (I could go for a few more) and I end up with an image I'm happy with. Enjoy.

Germany, Neuwied-Feldkirchen
Sport facilities
NV Comfort®
At this sports school in Germany, an intelligent combination of exhaust fans in the locker room and controlled, intelligent natural ventilation in the sports hall is applied via automatically controlled windows.
The sports hall and surrounding areas are naturally ventilated through the facade windows, thus providing a comfortable indoor climate. Night cooling supports the good indoor climate during the summer period, where warmer nights are often experienced. By cooling the building during the night, students will be welcomed by a fresh and comfortable indoor temperature in the morning, which means that there is no need to use energy-inefficient air conditioning.
The inevitable high humidity that occurs in the locker rooms when students shower is lowered by exhaust fans. Fresh air is let in from the sports hall with individual open windows.
This is a project where controlled use of natural resources (wind) provides a cheap and energy-efficient way to ventilate a sports facility.

WOYWW 95 - A Flower Haul + Spring Flower Boxes
After all these months of card making I'm scrapping again so what you see on my work desk today is all about that. What you see is the first page, no; the second page of an album I'm making for my grandchildren's other grandmother. It's the second page because I will have to do a title page but haven't exactly decided what to do with that yet. As I'm the snapper in the family I'm the one with all the photographs and Granny Ann mentioned she had very few so, hopefully, this album will fill in the gaps in her collection.
I've mocked up the page layout but not stuck the elements down yet because I like to take a photo at this stage so that I can refer to when sticking it down. Round it are the supplies I've been working with: Papermania, Tweet stamp set; Adirondack Stonewashed ink pad, a pack of Vellum Writer pens, etc. Propped up at the back you can just see a couple of cute little LOTV squares - one is Christmas themed and I plan to use it in this week's Christmas card.
Hanging down is a pack of new jewel brads. My stash of WOC flowers were at an all time low so I had to put in an order and couldn't resist some bling too.
For a sight of many more work desks best to hop over to the Queen of Desks, Julia's place at Stamping Ground - just click on the WOYWW link to the left here and happy desk hopping.
And here's what did me in at the weekend - we tidied up the front garden, rearranged the tubs and planters and added some more window boxes.
So that's it for today. Once I've posted this I'm off to look at as many desks as I can before lunch - yes, I'm really late uploading this today :)
Happy crafting to you all and I look forward to hearing from some of you over the next week.

Golly Elizabeth you have been very busy.....and very naughty to put your back out! I hope you feel better soon. Your pots look stunning and I love the addition of a bench so you can sit and enjoy them. I love gardening but often forget to just sit down and look at all the hard work I have put in to get it where it is. We have a couple of plants that we have watched get established over the past 6 years and we take a photo of them every year so that we can see how they have changed. Don't forget to post a picture of those pots when they are at their peak as I am sure they will give you a stunning display amd I would love to see them. Now go and rest that back Elizabeth and don't be so naughty again!

Analyst: Inflation may have caused Duterte's drop in satisfaction rating
The drop in President Rodrigo Duterte's net satisfaction rating in the second quarter might have been caused by high inflation rate in the country, a political analyst said on Wednesday.
Duterte's net satisfaction rating sustained an 11-percentage point decline from 56 percent in March to 45 percent in June, according to the latest survey of Social Weather Stations (SWS).
READ: Duterte's net satisfaction rating drops by 11 points in Q2 — SWS
Ramon Casiple, Executive Director of the Institute of Political and Electoral Reform, noted that the decrease mostly came from a number of residents from urban areas, whom he said were significantly affected by high prices of goods.
"Ang Metro Manila malaki ang bagsak, ang Class D malaki ang bagsak, ang Urban in general malaki ang bagsak at yung mga nakatapos ng high school," Casiple told Radyo Inquirer.
(Metro Manila recorded a large decrease, Class D recorded a large decrease, the Urban area in general recorded a large decrease, as well as those who were only able to finish high school.)
According to Casiple, the survey's respondents under these groups are usually minimum wage earners, who are mostly affected by rising prices in goods.

According to SWS, Duterte's satisfaction rating from residents of urban areas decreased from 70 to 61 percent or "very good" to "good." His rating, however, from those in rural areas remain "very good" at 69 percent.
"Ang urban kasi generally eh ayan ang apektado ng inflation. Lahat ng bagay dito binibili mo eh [The urban area in general is affected by inflation. It's because you buy everything here]," Casiple said.
He also noted that the President's net satisfaction rate may rise again if he manages to resolve the issue.
"Kung ma-solve niya yung inflation, malamang tataas ulit yan. Hindi yan permanente [If he can solve inflation, his satisfaction rate might increase again. It's not permanent]," he concluded. /jpv

Essential Eye Cream relies on honey as its nutrient base to fight aging around your eyes, moisturize it and also infuse it with antiseptic healing properties. We review this bee-based formula to see how hard it can work and if it can tackle all the issues associated with the eyes: puffiness, dullness, lines, and wrinkles. There are certain criteria as clinically researched, vetted, approved and backed up by consistent trial data that is used as the benchmark for eye creams. Let's see how will this product potentially measures up!
The key ingredients featured are:
- Honey
- Honey extract
The manufacturer does not use ordinary honey, but aged honey. It undergoes a 60-day fermentation process which purportedly enhances its healing, soothing properties. Propolis is used as the sealant to lock in the moisture while Royal (bee) jelly is used to increase collagen production. Propolis is like bee 'glue'. Honey may be nutrient rich and moisturizing but the issue is that in cosmetic trials, honey has been studied as an antibacterial that is great for healing wounds, not as an anti-aging agent. Other than collagen, we are missing a host of must-have ingredients including alpha-hydroxy acids, algae antioxidant extracts, passionflower, Vitamin E, Alpenrose and more. Possibly, due to the anti-inflammatory properties of honey, it may reduce puffiness. But there is little to suggest it will smooth out those lines and keep skin tight and bright long-term.
How To Use
Toney the eye area. Apply the cream around your eyes gently. Dab it in and do not rub as the eye area is delicate.
The cream sells for $30 for 30 ml. There are no discounts.
Guarantee & Feedback
We could not find any evidence of a guarantee policy or returns policy. This puts you in danger of buying a product that may not work, leaving you without any way of getting your money back. It also may mean you are putting time and effort into correcting your eye area in vain. On the product website, 80% of consumers give it a high rating. Interestingly, the reviews on Amazon are similarly positive.
Our Conclusive Review About Royal Honey Essential Eye Cream
We like that the product is cruelty-free. It also goes some way to some way towards sustaining beehive populations which is important for the planet as a whole. Unfortunately, though, the product is almost entirely devoid of hard-working clinically proven ingredients. These include but are not limited to alpha-hydroxy acids, algae antioxidant extracts, passionflower, Panthenol, Vitamin E, and Alpenrose. The product may work in part to reduce puffiness, given its soothing properties. When measured against leading, consistent and proven research criteria, as borne out in numerous practical trials, it is simply not clear – to put it mildly – how this formulation will provide firmness and regeneration long-term. Best-in-class products with proven clinical efficacy contain at least five patented ingredients for a reason. Look for this if you opt to use a product you know will produce results, and make sure that unlike this one, it has a strong guarantee policy in place.

Major Mayhem
You're Major Mayhem and you're an army dude who needs to rescue his girlfriend from the enemies. All of them. Plus ninjas.
This is actually a really fun shooter. The gameplay is actually quite simple, yet the graphics and the whole feel of it pulls you in and makes you keep playing.
I would say it's a good example how simple gameplay does not necessarily get stale or boring quickly.
The cartoony graphics look great and work well together and there's some content to unlock, though I'll be the first to admit that this seems to be rather on the thin side.
The jumping seems a hackish game mechanic though. Maybe unneccessary or something that could be improved on.
Verdict: It may be a simple game but the execution is well done and makes you keep on playing. And the hats man. The hats!
Familiarity: They don't call me Major Mayhem for no reason. They just don't at all.If you can find the first appearance of Bob you'll win a free Steam key for

You never click on native ads, do you?
If you're a digital marketer, the answer is probably no – unless you're curious about what the competition's up to. As a consumer, you likely steer clear of them.
So why would you expect other people to click on your native ads? It's a fair question. But here's a better one: What would actually get you to click if you were in the customer's shoes?
The numbers
Before we answer that, let's clear up one thing: Native advertising works.
Or it's worth a lot of money, at least. According to the Wall Street Journal, spending on native ads is likely to reach a whopping $32.9 billion this year. That's a 31 percent jump over spending last year.
Meanwhile, it's estimated that by 2021, "native ads will be responsible for 74 percent of all ad revenue," Forbes contributor Jayson DeMers notes.
That said, some folks are expecting a slowdown. WSJ says there will be a dropoff "because of flagging growth of native advertising spending on social media platforms."
Either way, it's likely going to get even more challenging for a native ad to stand out. But there's one thing you can do to give yourself a serious edge over the competition.
Spoiler Alert: It's nothing new.
Content is key
Good content, that is.
Again, what kind of native advertising would you actually click on? Therein lies the key to good content. These three quick tips might offer a little more clarity:
1. Never underestimate the audience
Remember that you're not fooling anyone. Since sponsored content should always be marked as such, there's virtually no point in slyly making your headline look like a "genuine" link. Even the most casual internet users are savvy these days, and they can sniff you out in seconds.
2. Write stuff people actually want to read.
Are your native ads on a news website that's read primarily by older people? Great. How about 5 tips to saving for retirement, especially for those who haven't been able to save much money throughout their lives? The point is, your content should be genuinely useful and interesting to your reader.
3. Write it well
You know who skimps on copywriters? Professional spammers who live in the former Soviet Union. Make sure your content is well written; it establishes credibility and even respect. People can tell when something was just thrown together, which is probably why Nigerian princes rarely fool anyone with their spam emails.
In other words, good writing matters. One way of assuring you have it is working with a professional writer; another is simply making sure your work gets proofread for grammar, spelling, punctuation, and flow.
So where do you find such writers? And how do you begin native advertising in the first place? Fluency Digital would love to start exploring these questions with you, so reach out to us today for a FREE consultation.

When you heard word lingerie, the thought comes in your mind is that you know everything about it. But you are not sure about different types of lingerie, what type would be right for your body type and all.
If you are aware of these things, it means you are a lingerie enthusiast. But, if you don't, you must go through this blog to know everything about lingerie types.
You must know what a tiny piece of this clothing type, which is not visible to others, can do for you. The rightly chosen lingerie for curvy women makes you feel good and confident.
We have pulled together some of the curve-friendly lingerie types that will make your plus size figure look incredible.
Lingerie Sets
Having a curvy body does not mean you cannot wear all types of clothing, whether it is about innerwear or outerwear. The lingerie sets must be added to your undergarments collection that you can wear on a special occasion or can make great everyday wear. The choice is all yours.
If you are going to buy lingerie for the first time, a matching set would be a great idea to start making your lingerie collection to give a trendy look to your plus size figure. Even if you do not want the matching set of plunge bra and panties, you will have plenty of lingerie for curvy women options to choose from.
In addition, going with a high-quality bra and underwear set that fits your curved body and helps in flattering your shape not only makes you feel comfortable, but you will start loving yourself as well.
Lingerie Costumes
Lingerie costumes tend to be more creative than lingerie sets. You need not look for the pieces or to get them to mix and match as you can wear each piece separately if you do not want something like. Make sure to choose the lingerie costume that fits perfectly with your curved body type as well as your personal style.
It is something you can choose to wear to make your night memorable. For those who are truly a creative person, when it comes to undergarments, this type of lingerie is perfect for you.
If you are a lingerie aficionado, you must have lingerie costumes which can be combined with lingerie you already have, like you can choose sheer chemise or sexy stockings.
If you have an inverted triangle body shape, which means wide shoulders and somewhat small waist, babydoll lingerie type is great for you. Babydolls actually look similar to short nightgowns, where they have a loose fit, and short hemline and have cups to support the chest. It brings more attention to your waist than bust and hips.
It is the best lingerie for curvy women who have large hips and bust and want to flatter their body type with a tight top and something loose at the bottom. This lingerie dress looks amazing on plus size while creating balance in the lower half. Babydolls are the best idea for those with small chest to give padding or pushing up your chests.
Chemises are one of the dainty and feminine options when you are going to find the best sleepwear and lingerie for curvy women. It is somewhat similar to babydolls with a difference that it fits snugly and skims the body, from shoulders to straight down hitting the mid-thigh.
You can choose shimmering silk, subtle cotton or sensual satin, whatever feels you comfortable. It works perfectly on all curved body shapes, especially recommended for those with long legs.
So, if you are the one with long legs and do not have short lingerie dress, you must try chemises with a perfect fit for you.
Like one-piece swimsuit involves bikini, the bodysuit also works in the same way when it comes to lingerie type. It is related to bra and panty set, where both upper and bottom garments are connected. In simple words, we can say that this type of lingerie for curvy women is covered from shoulders to hips, usually with a closure.
Bodysuits can be chosen to add shaping and soothing to your appearance, along with providing great support to your breasts. Some designs of bodysuits can even be paired with pants or skirts as a top that does not require tucking in. Also, it acts as an alternative to lingerie sets with several pieces.
Though they are available in an array of cuts that ensure to flatter your plus size body, the curvy women with a rectangle or inverted triangle figure must go with this type of lingerie.
With time, the purpose and symbolism of corset have been changed a lot. Now, it has become one of the preferred lingerie types that start from below the chest by supporting the breasts and extend down to the hips. Though corsets are used for shaping the figure, now they come in varied designs, and styles to add that fresh and modern look to your body.
Corsets have always been used by plus size women to shape and accentuate their curves. These days, they are considered as the centerpiece of a hot lingerie look, while giving you more comfort.
Whether slim or plus size, all women deserve to feel beautiful and sexy, and the rightly chosen lingerie that fits well work great in making you look and feel your best.
You can wear anything that you think can be carried easily along with making you look good.
Simply go ahead with the best lingerie for curvy women and flaunt your curves.

Level Up !
Rocknrolla365 replied to Rocknrolla365's topic in Community Theater - Level Creation Discussion - XBLAI honestly was only thinking of a single playlist of 9 or so levels, but if people gravitate toward the idea who knows where this could go. i want to make difficult levels, conceptual levels sort of how some artistic games on kongregate or newgrounds are. I have an incomplete playlist called School Of Rock and it has a level that appears as though you've failed but you go on to beat the level and the next level is called detention where the levels completion time is completely random (because its detention and you dont get to leave when you want lol). Basically i thought that since behemoth operates as a team why cant we as a community form teams to show off our talents in creativity.
Level Up !
Rocknrolla365 posted a topic in Community Theater - Level Creation Discussion - XBLAWould anyone like to make a group to create a full and thorough playlist ? i have a couple of levels to contribute but i'm willing to change them based on your feedback. This will require some teamwork though so if your someone who prefers to work alone i encourage you to branch out a little. I dont know if anyone else has ever tried this before but i believe it is very possible ! Wouldn't it be fun to challenge the level designers over at behemoth to see who can come up with the best play of all time ? I think this is a pretty good idea what are some of your thoughts on creating playlists as a team ?
is it possible to remove the limitation for things like spike blocks and other blocks also. Also could there be an interval adjuster on the lasers and also the automated cat weapon users this way could come up with much more interesting clear patterns. This would allow for much more use of the lasers other than random occurrences they would actually become part of the schematic of the level. Lastly could we get the option to change the direction of the saws ? i feel that level editing is the heart of battleblock theater but its becoming so focused around the heads its sad. If the tools at the editors disposal were maybe given more utility we may see more levels being made. Don't get me wrong this game is amazing in my opinion i just want to see the boom of creativity that i feel this game encourages. What are some of you're thoughts ?
[Spoilers] Ending Revelation Conspiracy
Rocknrolla365 replied to JesseWeinstein's topic in General Discussion - STEAM & XBLAIn Ancient Egypt cats were believed to be a very holy and sacred animal. There was even a cat deity said to exact justice and execution to evil doers, they also were said to be guardians of the underworld. isn't it strange that we also have cats as guards in this game ?....I believe that the great storm killed all of the friends on the ss friendship that sad day...all but hatty hattington for he was a gracious soul that everyone loved. The guardians of the underworld wanted to return his soul to the world, but hatty could not leave his friends so when that evil hat was placed on him to remove his soul hattys soul hid in order to help his friends navigate the obstacles of HELL. which would explain why hattys body never moved....for his soul is the narrator. Im guessing the guards used his body to motivate the prisoners to participate in the story . some prisoners would try to beat the obstacles to get revenge on hatty for some believed him to have betrayed them, and others like the protagonist wished to save him...all the while without knowing that hatty was guiding them along the whole way. .....someone please try to figure out the rest....lol

Arena Ball Game Glitch
Rocknrolla365 replied to Tattooey's topic in General Discussion - STEAM & XBLAMy question is which is cheaper...someone sidebasketing when the goal was open and they would of gotten the goal anyway or two people standing on the goal spamming grenades..in my opinion sidebasketing made people actually move around some but now defense is standing on a basket and spamming your weapon...idk how to get past that...o well sidebasketing is pretty cheap...but this is going to unleash a whole other cheap problem...whats even worse is that you cant even attack while holding the ball so you have to stand there and hope your teammate can remove 2 people and give you a clear shot...and if youre basket is open why complain that they scored on you with a sidebasket... the result would be the same if they jumped and threw it in...i understand that sidebasketing needed a patch but whats the countermeasure for 2 people just sitting there ? 2v1s are now impossible because of this

You own the lake and a beautiful lake it is! Build your dream home in stages if you want, there's three acres to be creative with. Or go for it all at once!! There is a level area right by the lake where there once was a mobile. Electric is on site, but has not been used in over 20 years. There is well and septic, but location and condition is unknown. Property is private a few seasons out of the year (foliage) and semi private and quiet the rest of the year. Easily obtained mountain views. This property has 2 access points from Mettacahonts Road which allows you the freedom to be adventurous with your build. Country feel, but close enough to be just right. Location is very convenient to the happenings of Accord. Less than half a mile from Arrowood Farm -Brewery.

It takes vision to build a top winery, among a lot of other things. Paul McBride had that vision and is now turning out some of the very top wines in Washington State.
The story of Force Majeure Vineyard started when businessman McBride, a passionate wine lover, heard about Washington's Red Mountain as one of the great viticultural areas in the US. He originally called his venture Grand Reve (the Great Dream) and brought on board as a partner Ryan Johnson. The name was changed to Force Majeure a few years later due to an ownership claim on the previous name. Johnson was then vineyard manager at one of the top sites on Red Mountain: Ciel du Cheval. While McBride and Johnson were conceiving their idea for a new red Mountain vineyard they created their highly successful "Collaboration Series" of wines where they purchased fruit from top sites and collaborated with some of Washington's best-known winemakers to produce wines that caught the attention of the top critics. Their first vintage was 2004. They quickly found their way and the 2007 Collaboration Series Reserve made by Mark McNeilly (of Mark Ryan Winery) and Ross Mickel (of Ross Andrew Winery) scored 97 points in the Wine Spectator, the highest score the Spectator had given for any Washington Cabernet Sauvignon to that point in time.
As their collaborations with contracted grapes and other winemakers continued, McBride acquired 13 acres of vineyard at the top of Red Mountain. The estate is steep, rising from 950 – 1250 feet, and contains within it nine different soil types. McBride and Johnson sought out to gain the maximum benefit from that diversity. They planted Cabernet Sauvignon, Cabernet Franc, Merlot, Petit Verdot, Syrah, Grenache, Mouvedre and Cinsault. Vine rows, that traditionally go in straight lines that either orient to the aspect of the slope or to the movement of the sun across the vineyard, follow the type of the soil at Force Majeure. A number of different vine training methods are used, again to best align with the varieties of soil and terrain. Ryan Johnson has now left the project and Dick Boushey, arguably Washington's best known vineyard manager has taken over.
In 2014, Force Majeure shifted from collaborating with a collection of different winemakers and scored the young but highly talented Todd Alexander as head winemaker. Todd has an impressive resume which includes a number of top wineries, most recently at Bryant Family, the Napa cult winery where he worked alongside consulting enologist Michel Rolland and vineyard manager David Abreu, two of the biggest names in the wine business. Alexander has also worked with Helen Keplinger, another Napa winemaker and consultant who has graced the cover of Wine Spectator magazine. He convinced her to join the Force Majeure team as a consulting enologist.
Tasting with Todd Alexander is nothing like you might think, given his rock-star credentials in the wine world. He honestly could not be more down to earth. He looks directly at you as he speaks, his answers are thoughtful and never include statements about his accomplishments. It is always about the wine, the vineyard, the other people involved in the project, never about himself. He is clearly passionate about drinking wine and he is very excited about Washington wines and the future of the region. As we taste through the wines he helps us to understand their upbringing and how the site relates to what ends up in the glass. It is a fascinating conversation over some fascinating wines. There is no doubt at all that Force Majeure at the top of Red Mountain is producing wines that can sit comfortably with top wines from around the world.
2015 Holocene Memorialis Pinot Noir
This is Todd's personal project which sources grapes from Monk's Gate Vineyard, a 50 acre farm in the Yamhill-Carlton AVA in Oregon's Willamette Valley. Grapes used come from the Dijon Clones 777 and 115 as well as Wadenswil and Pommard. Medium red in colour, the nose shows cherry and strawberry with background notes of spice and pepper. Medium tannin and medium acidity allow for enjoyment right now and probably a decade of ageing. There is balance and finesse, certainly nothing heavy about this Pinot yet there is an intensity to the flavours that lets you know this is serious wine. Raised in 40% new oak, it adds texture without adding taste. An excellent first vintage and certainly one to watch.
Excellent – US$ 50
Parvata means mountain in the Indian dialect of Marathi. This is their Southern Rhone inspired blend of 40% Mouvedre, 35% Syrah and 25% Grenache. Dark red in colour it possesses lots of black cherry fruit that is accompanied by earthy notes and hints of spice. With air some floral notes come through. Medium + tannins show structure but allow for a smooth mouthfeel and a medium/full body. Moderately complex now with slight herbal notes joining the finish.
Very Good +
Co-fermented with 1% Viognier to lift the aromatics and soften the tannins. Grown on fractured basalt in their estate vineyard this wine shows what the best of the best can do with this grape in Washington. Big and broad shouldered with terrific blackberry and blueberry fruit this is a powerhouse Syrah and despite its size, never loses its poise. The palate is already textured and smooth and the finish goes on and on. Aromas of spice box and herbs add complexity to the dark fruit profile. Wonderfully seductive!
Extraordinary – US$70
This is Todd's take on a right bank Bordeaux. (épinette is the name of a road and a park in Libourne near Pomerol). A blend of 52% Merlot, 22% Cabernet Franc, 15% Cabernet Sauvignon and 5% Petit Verdot, this is a sensational wine and easily ranks among the very best Merlot-dominant wines coming out of the New World. Very dark in colour, the aromas of black cherry, plum, spices and floral notes greet your nose well above the glass. Vinous perfume! The 85% new oak from various coopers brings forward terrific texture and mouth feel. There is good acidity that keeps the flavours in your mouth for almost a minute. Already complex this is bound to develop for a decade or more.
93% Cabernet Sauvignon, 3% Merlot, 3% Cabernet Franc, 1% Petit Verdot. A panoply of red and black fruits form the nose of this very expressive wine. Fruit forward, black cherries and currants are backed up with forest notes. Full body with medium + tannins this is powerful but smooth. Everything knits together to keep it balanced and proportioned. Drinking well now but no doubt plenty of further development is in the cards for this already complex wine.

China's Traditional Economy
André (2003) defines traditional economy as a situation where distribution of the available capital is based on inheritance. It is a strong economic presumption that consists of well established communal set up and it generally operates on prehistoric practices and beliefs. There are features that are characteristic of china's traditional economy as observed in the following discussion.
First, the economy was preindustrial in the sense that it was rural agriculture based economy. This economy relied on human labor and animals that provided the work force needed on the farms. Additionally the net product out put from this economy was too low to sustain the population and trigger the required quick economic development (André, 2003). In traditional economy, the larger section of the population lived in the rural areas and worked on agricultural fields. On top of the above features, in this type of economy, peoples' economic status was very unpredictable with the uncertainties brought about by a number of factors that includes the demand of farm products, the local authorities' way of life and changes in seasons.
Better still in the prehistoric era china's economy underwent a massive civilization that lead to sufficiency in agricultural production to supersede the basic needs of families that practiced agriculture to also provide the city settlements with food, main civic works, active scholars, widespread administrative organizations and standing armies. China's traditional economy has had the world's most advanced civilization for centuries as evidenced by greater achievements in governance, literature, production technology, science and art. Unfortunately this success in economy by China in traditional was time and again disturbed by wars (André, 2003).
Apart from agriculture, the Chinese traditional economy was also characterized by trade. The Chinese people ferried silk to the west and imported gold. This economy was also characterized by the use of metal made to look like cowrie shells, and then metal ornamental chains of beads referred to as cash which was used as a medium of exchange for goods and services. This was replaced by paper money in 100 AD among Sung Dynasty. Lastly the important industry that characterized the china's traditional economy was early mining. This was done among the Han Dynasty where people started operating salt mining businesses; the salt was sold. The major source of labor in mines was majorly by the slaves.
In conclusion, china's traditional economy was mainly agriculture based. This was later civilized to improve the agricultural production, an achievement that was contributed to by good governance and improved production technology among other factors. Trade of salt from early mining industries and wheat and rice from agriculture took place with the use of metals made to look like cowrie shells, metal ornamental chains as a medium. These were later replaced by paper money.

Or the Royal Belgian Institute of Natural Sciences, I should say. I took my six year old self to the museum armed with a student ID, an empty afternoon, and my camera. Let me just tell you. GAH I fell in love with their little Arctic display. I'll show you. Warning, tons of pictures. Too late, you're already here. Here's a peek.
First let me explain why I went. A few months ago I came across this little youtube channel called The Brain Scoop. A grad student in Montana, Emily Graslie, talks all about ecology and evolution and why animals are the way they are. She worked in the Philip L. Wright Zoological Museum at her university, including helping to prepare animals for their collection. Taxidermy! What makes her story so amazing, besides the whole women-in-science-girl-power-thing, is that her little vlog blew up big time. She just landed a job at Chicago's Field Museum of Natural History (big leagues!) as their cultural ambassador. Smart, smart museum they are. Her videos have changed my outlook on museums, especially for natural history. I had to go and see how the Belgians did it! I wanted to ask a million questions about their animals, where the whale bones came from and why did someone donate a tortoise and what happens when their elephant finally falls apart. I didn't know how to ask in French, and seeing as only the first floor of the museum had english translations, I didn't know if I'd even be able to understand the answers.
REGARDLESS. I loved this quirky little museum.
They're really big on iguanodons, as there was a major discovery of them in a Belgian mine.
I played with an interactive, attacks-you-when-you-move dinosaur, and I got to draw my own Jurassic creature. (He was kind of ugly, but I'm okay with it.) Instead of going up one flight of stairs like a normal person, I scooted all the way up to the top because I too excited for the hall of WHALES. They're the best. The skeletons were massive of course.
And they had this quirkly little diorama/book of whale facts. I took a picture of every page.
But it turns out that the whale room was not even my favorite. To get there, you had to walk through the section on the Arctic and Antarctic. You know those aquariums with tunnel tanks? The ones you have to walk through and you're surrounded by fish and reefs and anemones? Well it looks like that was the original intention but someone realized that stuffed animals require far less maintenance.
Behold! The life-size Arctic diorama.
I didn't know whether to laugh at the earnestness of it, or just soak it in as art. I nearly teared up at any rate. NARWHALS, guys. And there were polar bears and walruses and penguins and puffins and an intimidating looking leopard seal. (This section in particular I wanted to ask about the background of the inhabitants.) This little vignette was one of my favorites – don't go towards the light little dude!
Back downstairs, I wandered through the biodiver-city exhibit. Urban ecology was one of my first exposures to environmental studies as a career field, and the backyard-biologist thing is great for kids.
There was a hall dedicated to shells too, but the light was a little wonky for picture taking.
The only no-talking room in the museum was full of tarantulas and cockaroaches. I imagined them trading stories about the obnoxious tourists that wouldn't shut up. This one had a really messy room.
I would love to learn more about this process, too: the museum had a little corner dedicated to what animals WILL evolve into, fifty million years from now. This was a capybara in the future. He looks straight out of the Avatar set.
This little stick was one of the earliest indications that humans could do math! It's like an early ruler, sort of. I wonder if they hated math as much as we seem to now.
The mascot of the museum was their beloved elephant, a former resident of the Brussels Zoo He was stuffed in the 19th century (!) and restored in 2007, so he's got quite a patina, shall we say?
All in all, I learned a lot and am happy to check this one off my Brussels Bucket List. Thanks R-BINS!

Anti Fascist Callout
On October 29th the Jewish Defense League (JDL) is having an event commemorating the death of the infamous racist "Rabbi" Meir Kahane, founder of the JDL and the Kahanist movement. Kahanism has been behind terrorist attacks on civilians, racist mass murders, bombings, and promotion of racial hatred on a large scale. The JDL Canada also has ties with other fascist groups like the English Defense League (EDL), the Austrian Freedom Party, and smaller groups and individual racists and fascists. They have established themselves as the vanguard of Islamophobia in Canada, taking every opportunity to demonize Arabs, Muslims, and anyone who opposes their twisted ideology. They have a well documented history of racism, sexism, homophobia, and violent tendencies to those who oppose them.
We must stand in solidarity with the victims of Kahanism by showing the JDL they're not welcome anywhere. Their celebration of Meir Kahane's life is a celebration of fascism that should be shut down.
Calling on anti-fascists, anti-racists, and concerned community members to come out and take a stand!

Women show their strength
Santa Cruz
"Thousands march down Church Street and onto Pacific Avenue on Saturday afternoon as the Santa Cruz County Women's March overtook downtown Santa Cruz in a stand against President Donald Trump." (Kevin Johnson — Santa Cruz Sentinel)
Kayla Cromer is a single mother of two from Santa Cruz. She said Trump's election to office was "shocking." "It hopefully teaches them how the community can come together, despite this administration," Cromer said.
Watsonville was one of them. While many Santa Cruz County residents headed directly to the march in downtown Santa Cruz, some began their protest even earlier at Watsonville Plaza.
"We're here to voice our frustration about the new administration and what it represents," said Jenny Sarmiento, one of the organizers of the event. (Register-Pajaronian, Johanna Miller)

Blind Item – August – Bollywood – 2017
Our second blind item of the day comes from Rajeev Masand. Believe us when we say that it's not at all difficult to figure this one out. In fact, this blind item also inadvertently solved another blind item that was released months ago. What can be said about this young lady? Either she improves herself or find another line of work. That said, we don't know why she reminds us of Sonam Kapoor in her early days. Remember the young and brash Sonam? The one, who acted in silly films, including a comedy film as well as an action film. She reminds us of this young lady. So either we wait for this girl to get her act together, like Sonam eventually did, or she's better off as a model posing for magazine covers, like Sonam also did and is still doing. Her dad was huge in the 90s and he's still working today in supporting or negative roles. He's also one of the nicest man to exist in Bollywood. It's endearing how he waiting all these years to marry his wife because his family objected to their relationship. Then his wife got cancer, he stood by and supported her, like every husband should. It's quite rare to find in Bollywood. Anyways, find out who Rajeev Masand is talking about.
Bollywood Blind Item
Strictly Decorative
This young actress whose most recent film has come a cropper at the box-office is reportedly upset with critics for dismissing her 'work' in the film as 'strictly decorative'. Given that she had barely 10 lines in the entire movie and less screen- time than all of the other principals, some would say the critics were being polite. The joke in the industry is that the twenty-something comes from a legacy of the finest timber in Bollywood, and has turned out to be a chip off the old block. 'It is likely that her wax impression would be more animated than her,' one reviewer declared.
No wonder she's been telling friends she wants to 'punch the critics'. But shouldn't her anger be aimed at her director, who reportedly slashed her role on her very first day after she took more than a dozen retakes to get a simple line right? According to well placed sources, a senior actor in the cast who is thick with the director, recommended that the actress' role be kept to a bare minimum after it became clear she was too raw and couldn't match the timing and speed of the rest of the cast.
One catty insider remarked that the actress talked more in the interviews she's been giving to promote the film, than she did on screen. Ouch!

You can almost sense the vulnerability in their voices.
The once cocky banter of two men claiming to know so much about the dark world of football match fixing world is gone. In its place, uncertainty. On their minds, fear.
"Was my name revealed in the book?" one of them asked me yesterday.
The other man, whom I had met two weeks ago, tried to reassure himself: "Surely he wouldn't dare talk about such secrets. Would he?"
Their nightmares have now come true.
In a tell-all book launched by his co-authors online yesterday, convicted match fixer Wilson Raj Perumal, 48, stripped away whatever was left of a code of silence upheld by those in the kelong industry.
His book, Kelong Kings, exposes the misdeeds of corrupt footballers, bookies and fellow match fixers.
New names have emerged and new allegations have been made in the book, co-written by Italian journalists Alessandro Righi and Emanuele Piano.
A Singaporean man, who had previously worked with Wilson Raj, said yesterday: "He (Wilson Raj) is now a loose cannon that can explode in our faces."
And explode it has. His book even goes so far as to incriminate himself.
In 1995, Malaysia Cup Kelong King Rajendran "Pal" Kurusamy had allegedly sent his brother-in-law and Wilson Raj on a mission to fix English Premier League matches.
Wilson Raj had flown to the UK using his friend's passport because his own was impounded by the Singapore authorities over a match fixing investigation.
In Birmingham, the duo took a cab to the club's training grounds and posed as journalists from Singapore.
"If you are interested," Wilson's associate allegedly told Birmingham's then goalkeeper Ian Bennet, "I will give you £20,000 to lose the match against Liverpool. You're going to lose to them anyways."
The goalkeeper declined. An approach to another team player also failed.
Wilson Raj also implicated - and named - a former Singapore national player and a Croatian, saying that they were both members of Pal's syndicate.
Wilson Raj claimed that he had also been a victim.
He names a man, RP, who was an intermediary for a friendly between Malaysia and Lesotho in 2009. The game had supposedly been fixed by Wilson Raj's syndicate.
RP had gone to a shop in the People's Park Complex carrying $400,000 of Wilson Raj's cash as a deposit for a bet with a local bookie.
The final result of 5-0 in Malaysia's favour meant that Wilson Raj had won big.
But he could not collect.
RP called Wilson Raj on his mobile phone and said: "The guy took off with the deposit. He's gone... I went back to the shop and they told me that he is not there anymore."
Other instances of how people had worked under Wilson Raj were recounted in the book.
There was a hint of sympathy in the book when he related an incident involving former national team coach P. N. Sivaji, 62.
In December 1993, Pal had "paid the Kedah team handsomely to fight tooth-and-nail for him and made sure no one else influenced his players".
Wilson Raj said: "The Singapore Lions' coach Sivaji was a soft-spoken man who was harshly criticised for not bringing the trophy home.
"Little did he know that someone else had already decided where the Cup was going."
Wilson Raj has named names and made several allegations against cheats, both in Singapore and overseas. Many are clearly defamatory, said lawyers The New Paper spoke to.
Lawyer N Kanagavijayan said: "There is recourse for defamation if the people mentioned in the book are easily identified. Wilson Raj needs to prove that what he said was the truth."
But to indict Wilson Raj may not be easy even though he is now in custody in Finland following his arrest in April 16.
Also, pursuing legal action might not be in the interest of some of those named in the book.
Said lawyer Satwant Singh: "Why would anybody mentioned in Wilson Raj's book want to go public with a lawsuit? It will only put them in the spotlight.
"In any criminal matter, there is no time frame. The authorities can still investigate if a crime was committed in the past."
Perhaps that's how former Lions' coach Sivaji would want it. When told of Wilson Raj's book and what he wrote, he said: "To me, that period was like a bad dream.
"I have forgotten it. It's gone."
