Prepare for picture overload!! This year A got two Easter baskets, filled with tons of goodies. Our Easter festivities began on Saturday, with an egg hunt at a local park. I'm not sure how you do Easter where you live, but here in Utah it can get pretty serious. I'm talking about egg hunts in every single park across the state. Just in case we missed one in the morning there's always another one in an hour. ha ha! We had so much fun. On Sunday we had a pretty laid back day. Just Spence, Addie, and I decided on a picnic at a nearby park and we wanted to do our own little egg hunt just for A. As she gets older I can see how much she can enjoy and understand the holidays!! While at the park I took a second and realized that life was great and it couldn't get any better. I love our little family! Also you will notice that Addison is OBSESSED with bubbles!! Hope you all a wonderful weekend!
This was Addison Sunday morning when she got her second basket (left and right). The middle picture was a giveaway she won from the sweetest girls over at Adie's Corner. She immediately fell in love with the softest bunny ever!! She also got an adorable bow that she wore on Sunday, and a $25 gift card. Thanks again Lisa and Adie!! xoxo

DENVER—This morning, The New York Post reported that a $100,000 donation from Charlie Rangel's political action committee to the Democratic National Committee was returned because Barack Obama does not want the organization to take money from P.A.C.s.
Rangel says he doesn't know anything about it.
As the congressman left a closed-door lunch at the Sheraton this afternoon, I asked him about the story–and mentioned the source.
He turned to one of his aides and asked, "Did you hear anything like that?"
The aide shrugged.
Walking away, Rangel turned to me and said, "So much for the New York Post."

Group Raises $622,000 to Cancel $14.7 Million in Medical Debt for 2,700 People
Members of Occupy Wall Street have shifted their activism from street protests to raising money to alleviate the medical debts of thousands of Americans.
Rolling Jubilee, a creation of Occupy's Strike Debt group, has purchased $14.7 million owed by individuals, largely as a result of medical expenses.
Remarkably, the group managed to do this while spending only $400,000 of the more than $622,000 it has raised so far for the debt-relief cause.
It did so because the debts were purchased through the "secondary debt market," where creditors offload unpaid debts to third parties for pennies on the dollar.
The $14.7 million buy-out was made through a series of three or four separate purchases. The most recent purchase, in the amount of $13.5 million, relieved the medical debt of 2,693 people residing in 45 states and Puerto Rico.
Andrew Ross, a member of Strike Debt and professor of social and cultural analysis at New York University, said the group originally expected to raise $50,000 to buy up $1 million in debts at a ratio of about 20 to 1.
"In fact we've been able to buy debt a lot more cheaply than that," he told The Guardian.
Ross said the project was also established for public education purposes, realizing that the nearly $15 million in debt represents "just a tiny drop in the secondary debt market."
"Our purpose in doing this, aside from helping some people along the way – there's certainly many, many people who are very thankful that their debts are abolished – our primary purpose was to spread information about the workings of this secondary debt market," he said.
"So when you get called up by the debt collector, and you're being asked to pay the full amount of your debt, you now know that the debt collector has bought your debt very, very cheaply … as cheaply as we bought it," Ross added. "And that gives you moral ammunition to have a different conversation with the debt collector. It changes the psychology of the debtor, knowing this."

Scalia in Lawrence V. Texas
Not that I've been reading supreme court opinions or anything but Scalia's dissenting opinion basically says that the decision in Lawrence V. Texas means that Same Sex Marriage should be legal. Excerpts below, bolding by me.
Justice O'Connor argues that the discrimination in this law which must be justified is not its discrimination with regard to the sex of the partner but its discrimination with regard to the sexual proclivity of the principal actor.
[…] This reasoning leaves on pretty shaky grounds state laws limiting marriage to opposite-sex couples. Justice O'Connor seeks to preserve them by the conclusory statement that "preserving the traditional institution of marriage" is a legitimate state interest. Ante, at 7. But "preserving the traditional institution of marriage" is just a kinder way of describing the State's moral disapproval of same-sex couples.
[…] One of the most revealing statements in today's opinion is the Court's grim warning that the criminalization of homosexual conduct is "an invitation to subject homosexual persons to discrimination both in the public and in the private spheres."
[…] At the end of its opinion–after having laid waste the foundations of our rational-basis jurisprudence–the Court says that the present case "does not involve whether the government must give formal recognition to any relationship that homosexual persons seek to enter." Ante, at 17. Do not believe it. More illuminating than this bald, unreasoned disclaimer is the progression of thought displayed by an earlier passage in the Court's opinion, which notes the constitutional protections afforded to "personal decisions relating to marriage, procreation, contraception, family relationships, child rearing, and education," and then declares that "[p]ersons in a homosexual relationship may seek autonomy for these purposes, just as heterosexual persons do." Ante, at 13 (emphasis added). Today's opinion dismantles the structure of constitutional law that has permitted a distinction to be made between heterosexual and homosexual unions, insofar as formal recognition in marriage is concerned. If moral disapprobation of homosexual conduct is "no legitimate state interest" for purposes of proscribing that conduct, ante, at 18; and if, as the Court coos (casting aside all pretense of neutrality), "[w]hen sexuality finds overt expression in intimate conduct with another person, the conduct can be but one element in a personal bond that is more enduring," ante, at 6; what justification could there possibly be for denying the benefits of marriage to homosexual couples exercising "[t]he liberty protected by the Constitution," ibid.? Surely not the encouragement of procreation, since the sterile and the elderly are allowed to marry. This case "does not involve" the issue of homosexual marriage only if one entertains the belief that principle and logic have nothing to do with the decisions of this Court. Many will hope that, as the Court comfortingly assures us, this is so.
Full horrifying opinion here, where he says he's got nothing against the gays, he just thinks they're going to hell.

What Plessy has really taught us is that the proper reading of "equal" is not "equivalent" but "indistinguishable". Civil rights are not fungible commodities.
In what way is it not the Court's duty to "throw by the wayside" laws deemed unconstitutional? In what other manner are they intended to act? While not quite since the birth of the Republic, ever since Marbury it has been the Court's prerogative to strike down laws that do not meet the test of Constitutionality – to send it back to the legislature for rewriting. If the legislature chooses not to rewrite the law, that can only be interpreted as a tacit admission that the attempted regulation was not in keeping with the spirit or letter of the Constitution. No serious attempt has been made to legislate or amend the Constitution in the face of the Lawrence decision.
It is not the duty of the judicial to simply read statutes and interpret "what congress meant". The Court does not work for Congress. Like Congress, it works for the People, and its ultimate guide in doing so is the Constitution. What other defense do the People have against repressive, oppressive or tyrannical legislation? The Fourteenth Amendment does not guarantee equal protection under the law, but equal protection of the law. It is the equality of law that is suspect.
For me, the key to Scalia's dissent in Lawrence (simply based on what caught my eye), is his concern that it would overturn state-level precedent that it was permissible for legislatures to regulate morality irrespective of demonstrable harm. There is, to my mind, only one source of moral dictation outside of the harm principle, and it is expressly forbidden for Congress to pass laws based solely on religious grounds.
The final truth of the matter for me is this: putting the equal protection of law up to a majority referendum is a contradiction in terms. No legal justification has been given to restrict marriage rights – that it makes people uncomfortable is irrelevant. No demonstrable harm has been proven. The Constitution calls upon us and our government to secure the blessings of liberty for ourselves and our posterity. Like it or not, in this country, under this Constitution, the disapproval of God Almighty is insufficient to deny equality of liberty to all citizens.
Young master, your comment is internally inconsistent. You say the Court cannot toss out unconstitutional laws. Yet you say it is a failure of the Court to address circumstantial issues while leaving unconstitutional laws on the books. Make up your mind, please.

Invited by the local Xiantao government, Shipston has partnered with a local real estate developer in Wuhan to build the Modern Sino-Canada Science and Technology City in the suburb of the economic and financial center of mid-China. Through the construction of this industrial park, which includes plans for both industrial and residential development, the local government anticipates a substantial boost to its economy by capitalizing on the industrial migration from developed countries and China's coastal cities. The development has been constructed in phases to differently utilize capitol. So far, it has more than twenty Chinese and foreign enterprises set up their new facilities inside the park, including some well-known companies, such as Worthington Modern Steel Framing Manufacturing Co., Ltd. (U.S.), Clearford Industrial (Canada), VolksLift (Germany), and more.
Located in Jinan, Shangdong Province, China Education & Technology Group Limited ("HiTeam") is principally engaged in the private vocational and college education sector. HiTeam was built to address the challenges of conventional Chinese colleges—which tend to be run as state-owned businesses and are less responsive to student needs and the overall market conditions—that often fail to prepare students to find jobs upon graduation. With approximately 11,000 full-time students, faculty, and staff, HiTeam offers a unique college-level curriculum providing information technology courses enabling students to procure professional certifications primarily in the information technology field.
Luyuan is a leader in China's electric bicycle industry, which has seen exponential growth over the past ten years with units skyrocketing from zero to 20 million. The company offers 100 different vehicle models with a variety of personal transportation and commercial uses. China now has approximately 120 million e-bikes on the roads, helping China to address the pervasive complexities of increasing oil consumption, environment pollution, and the tremendous need for better mobility for its 1.3 billion people. With technology breakthroughs in batteries, motors, and controllers, the electric bicycle's high growth is being driven by increased reliability and affordability, as it replaces gas motorcycles and bicycles. In China, an e-bike is priced, on average, around $200–$400 each, and it costs only one tenth of the energy consumed by gas motorcycles. Currently, the Chinese market remains fragmented with huge consolidation opportunities. Domestic and international growth remains significant as individuals become more sensitive to the environmental impact of transportation and the economic impact of increasing oil.

People often ask me what the meaning is behind my tattoos.
Nothing else matters is a Metallica song that my boyfriend (at the time – he is now my husband) used to play to me when we first got together in high school. It is also the song that I walked down the isle to. It took on extra meaning when I got sick and I listened to it over and over again while I was in hospital. It really kept me focussed on why I wanted to get better and it gave me strength. My husband even bought me a body pillow (because I was having trouble sleeping without him by my side) and had it embroidered with the words Nothing Else Matters. If you aren't familiar with the song you can listen to it here:
So these days Nothing Else Matters for me EXCEPT my health (and my hubby)!
The flowery swirl was actually my logo when I owned a couple of flower shops in a previous life (before I got sick). Running and building that business was the biggest achievement of my life so far and so now that it is finished (thanks to floods and the global financial crisis and my illness) I wanted a momento to remind me what I am capable of.
So I have one tattoo that keeps me grounded and one tattoo that reminds me to dream big.

We all want to believe that we can remain world-class athletes well past our prime, crossing up defenders in our corporate basketball leagues and diving for touchdowns in our flag football games. Some people can actually stay in shape for decades – and on stages much bigger than local gyms and fields.
Dr. Riley Williams, an orthopedic surgeon and sports medicine specialist at New York's Hospital for Special Surgery, knows what it takes for professional athletes to play into their late 30s and early 40s. "These guys who all played in these different sports for a long time really, really, really had to be focused and motivated mentally to continue to perform at a high level," he says. "Because physiologically, none of us are set up to do that for a really long, long time." Williams is the medical director for the Brooklyn Nets as well as the medical director and orthopedic surgeon for the New York Red Bulls. He spoke to 'Men's Journal' about some of the most impressive veteran athletes still playing today.

Subaru UK is pleased to announce the Subaru XV has been awarded 4x4 Magazine's 'Crossover Estate of the Year 2019', a testimony to Subaru's on-going commitment to build cars that are incredibly safe, extremely capable and unfalteringly reliable, too.
Beating off strong competition in its category, XV impressed the judging panel at 4x4 Magazine across the board. The safety credentials and suitability of the XV as a family car were praised, with reference to XV being Euro NCAP's highest-scoring vehicle of all time for child occupant protection at the time of its launch.
XV was also admired for its off-road credentials, the unique combination of Subaru's permanent Symmetrical All-Wheel Drive and Boxer engine proven to provide unrivalled capability in mud and rough terrain. X-Mode with Hill Descent Control, standard on all models in the range, was also noted to be very effective in particularly challenging conditions.
4x4 Magazine also recognises that Subaru's new Global Platform, which will underpin all new model instructions going forward, results in further improvements to the sure footed combination of grip, feel and sharpness for which Subaru is famed, giving XV exceptional ride and refinement.
Alan Kidd, Editor of 4x4 Magazine, said: "The new XV builds on the company's already formidable strengths. It's a very, very fine vehicle with a price tag that makes it the best 4x4 estate you can buy."
Subaru UK Managing Director Chris Graham commented: "We are delighted that the XV has won 4x4 Magazine's Crossover Estate of the Year 2019. This award is testimony to a great product that our customers love and trust to get themselves, and their families, safely from A to B, whatever the conditions. We're proud to produce some of the safest, most capable and reliable vehicles on the market today."

Proper studies require the total concentration of an individual or the parties involved in doing specific research. In this century, learning has become part and parcel of every move towards success. Both the young and the old consider learning as the key that opens all doors in success. Additionally, studying is also a very effective entertainment tool. Those who understand this concept can bravely bear witness to these words. There are various entertaining novels or written materials that contain interesting facts and stories.
However, studying cannot give the best results if the learner will be exposed to distractions.
There are many tools in our homesteads or even learning institutions that can act as distracted for those learning. A juicer is some of the appliances that many people have acquired in order to make some natural juice for themselves. Have you ever experience distractions in your studies especially when a family member is making some juice using a juicer? Many people will conquer with me and respond with a yes. This is because most people have been using the old traditional juicers which are operated manually and therefore produce some noise during the process. It's time for you to know the juiceman juicer that helps you focus on studies.
First and foremost, the best juicer should be efficient. It should be efficient in the sense that the rate at which it makes the juice should be fast. As a learner, it is always good to spend some little time in extracurricular activities such as extracting some juice from the desired fruits or vegetables if your choice.
This will enable you to invest more time in studying, therefore, boosting your concentration and focus.
Consider buying a juicer that has a big diameter of the feed tube so that you can always produce the amount of juice either for yourself or the whole family in a short time.
Secondly, your juicer should be reliable. A long lasting juicer is very cost effective since you will not have to repair it every now and then. A reliable juicer will give you peace of mind as you will not have to stress yourself on where you will get the funds of repairing it or how to service it. Always ensure you choose the best juicer that has quality parts. If you can manage to choose a stainless steel juicer, then definitely you will have no complications. Studying requires a settled mind that is fully engaged in reading and not divided.
Nevertheless, some juicers were designed poorly and they, therefore, produce excess and loud sounds that are big enough to distract your studies. There are good juicers which produce little or no sound at all.
Vonshef digital juicers and Juiceman juicers are the best quiet appliances that will never distract your studies. They actually permit you to multitask. You can study while at the same time your juice is getting ready.
Drinking a glass of juice while studying is advisable as it will keep your mind active by stimulating the memory nerves. Apparently, consideration should be given to the type of juicer which will allow you to study effectively.

STEREOPHONICS frontman KELLY JONES has spoken about the band being bottled offstage at a festival in ITALY earlier this summer, describing the audience as being a decade behind British festival crowds.
As reported on NME.COM, the band were pelted with bottles, rocks and, bizarrely, tins of tuna fish at the Imola festival as they tried to play their short set in front of 50,000 people.
"They gave us a warning before we went on that there might be hassle," he told Big Issue Cymru, the Welsh edition of the homeless magazine. "There were a lot of football fans in the crowd because there was a big football tournament on the same weekend.
"We almost got hit so we just said we weren't going to play through all this, and walked off.
"The audience are about ten years behind everyone else. They think what happens in festivals now is what happened in the UK about 15 years ago, when people used to throw bottles around."
He also revealed that he has been overindulging in sherry to "warm up" his throat before gigs. "I started drinking sherry years ago, just to warm my throat up. You just have a small glass before you go on. But I think I tried coating my throat a bit much on the acoustic tour and I drank half a bottle of sherry on stage one night."
Stereophonics are due to play Cardiff's Millennium Stadium on Saturday (July 21). The show has still not sold out, and a TV advertising campaign has been launched on Welsh regional stations. Local newspapers have also been given handfuls of tickets to give away in competitions.

Los Angeles, CA – December 22, 2015 — Vanan Services, a company focused on attention to detail, reliability, and quality for the transcription market, is a featured company segment on Worldwide Business with kathy ireland.
During the segment, Kathy Ireland interviewed CEO Saravanan Nagaraj and Vice President Bharathi Priya Nagaraj. Saravanan commented on some of the challenges companies face with transcription outsourcing by saying, "Mostly, online transcription services are provided by individual transcribers so customers cannot expect 98% accuracy or on-time delivery. If the audio file has personal information, perhaps very sensitive information, you do not know who is handling your information.
Priya Nagaraj commented on Vanan Services addresses these challenges by saying, "We put together a team that is devoted to detail and quality that ensures things that others cannot. The process of transcription, proofreading, and finally quality checks ensure that customers' final product meets and exceeds the highest expectations."
Learn more about the company and their transcription services on the upcoming segment of Worldwide Business with kathy ireland. There will also be a look into the company and their process.
The Vice President of Programming, JL Haber, was quoted stating, "Sometimes very sensitive information is released from companies for their transcriptions and that can be a very bad thing if given to the wrong individual. That is why it is important for companies like Vanan Services to offer the detail and security that they do in the market."
Tune in to see Vanan Services on the Fox Business Network as sponsored programming on December 26, 2015 at 5:00pm ET.

Vaughan, Victor Clarence
- John Parascandola
Vaughan, Victor Clarence (27 October 1851–21 November 1929), biochemist and bacteriologist, was born in Mount Airy, Missouri, the son of John Vaughan and Adeline Dameron, farmers. He received his early education at home from his mother, from private tutors, and in a community schoolhouse. At the age of seventeen, he enrolled in Mt. Pleasant College, from which he graduated with a B.S. in 1872. Vaughan taught chemistry and Latin at Mt. Pleasant from his student days until 1874, when he moved to Hardin College, a women's school, to teach the same subjects for a semester. In the fall of 1874, he enrolled in the University of Michigan to pursue graduate studies, his choice of institutions influenced by the fact that Michigan had a large, well-equipped chemistry laboratory. He received his M.S. in 1875 and his Ph.D. in 1876 for studies in chemistry, geology, and biology....

Hey, y'all! Sorry I haven't posted in a few days; I spent the weekend at Amber's house. I'm back now.
So, I haven't gotten a single post suggestion, so I decided to become ~independent~ and come up with my own ideas. What would my readers think about a comic, drawn by me, about gaming adventures and crud like that? I could do stories, I could cross over video games, or I could make them instructional; tell me your ideas in the comments.
But, in the meantime, please vote on this poll.
Thanks for your feedback!! :^)

The Vintage Advantage: Magic Origins and the NYSE Open
I'm back from several weeks of vacation and ready to dive into the crucible of Vintage again! As I mentioned a few weeks ago, it will be a busy summer with a Team Serious Invitational, Gen Con, and Eternal Weekend, as well as a few local Vintage events. On top of it all, Magic Origins is being released and has some mammoth printings to look at for potential playability.
From a bird's-eye view, I like the feel of Magic Origins. I've always appreciated the simplicity and frankness of base sets and will be sorry to see them go. Since the cards are generally simpler for newer players, they can end up with some lower-costed basic effects, which are great in Vintage where efficiency is so important. I also like some of the throwback ideas and references, even if they just mean reprints or name drops. Nostalgia is fun, and with a game that's more than 20 years old, there's a lot of fond memories to reminisce about.
Obviously we'll start with some of that…
Day's Undoing
Draw-sevens are splashy and fun effects. Everybody loves them and they're completely balanced because all players go to the same number of cards in hand. Right? In all seriousness, Day's Undoing—a revamped Timetwister (already a restricted member of the Power 9)—will almost certainly see Vintage play at some level. The drawback of ending the turn when you play it is significant but not crippling at that cost. In most uses of the original draw sevens, the idea was to empty your hand, refill it with mana available, and continue playing spells afterward—potentially ending with a game-winning Tendrils of Agony (or Goblin Charbelcher). On turn one this had the side effect of forcing a mulligan on your opponent, maybe leaving them with too much or too little mana. This gained spell advantage, doing more than your opponent.
With the "end the turn" clause, Day's Undoing's potential for spell advantage is limited. What you end up getting is relative card advantage: you might go from two cards in hand to seven, netting five; your opponent goes from seven cards to seven, netting zero. Let's face it: that's still pretty good.
Day's Undoing has gotten a lot of attention in the Vintage community, and opinions are all over the map. Some see it as an amazing new piece for combo, generally fitting into something like Academy Belcher or Storm. Maybe it will be combined with Quicken or Leyline of Anticipation to overcome the turn-ending drawback. Other players think it's going to be part of a more controlling deck, where it can refill a hand with cheap and free counters and then win at its leisure with a well-timed Tinker or Time Vault. And where some people think of it as amazing (potentially restrictable!) new technology, others see it as unplayable, another "fixed" piece of Power 9 that's nerfed beyond its usefulness.
Personally, I'd say I fall in the middle. Day's Undoing will be played in Vintage, but it won't be restricted. Anyone keen on sleeving up Academy Belcher will almost certainly include some number of these. Using it with enablers like Leyline or Quicken is probably going to be too "cute" for consistent play, but people will try that too. Notion Thief is a powerful option, but the sequencing is a little off with the three-mana sorcery you want to cast after the four-mana creature. At the same time, a control deck that makes up for the drawback with lots of instants could do well, and would make an interesting addition to the format. Another interesting addition, similar to some of the ideas that have been suggested for Modern, would be to put Day's Undoing into Affinity. That's a reasonably fast aggro deck already thanks to Mishra's Workshop, and being able to refill the hand and mess with people's mulligans might push it just a little further.
Overall, I'm excited to see where this Day ends up. Despite its major limitation, it draws a lot of cards for a mana cost that Vintage players know is right.
Dark Petition
On the other hand, I'm not as excited about Dark Petition. It may be a Demonic Tutor with a built in Dark Ritual, but the initial cost is just too high to be reliable.
Most of the time, the spell mastery mechanic will be automatic in Vintage. It's simple to build a deck with enough cantrips, acceleration, and cheap counters that there will be two instants and/or sorceries in the graveyard. This is partly why Dig Through Time is so good and Treasure Cruise was restricted. However, there are some important cases where spell mastery just won't work. For example, in Vintage decks like Grim Long and TPS, one of the classic turn-one wins goes something like land, Mox, Mox, Dark Ritual, Dark Ritual, Demonic Tutor for Yawgmoth's Will, replay Dark Ritual, replay Dark Ritual, replay Demonic Tutor for Tendrils of Agony. Dark Petition fits perfectly into this hand in place of the Demonic Tutor… for the first use. After the Yawgmoth's Will and replaying the Dark Rituals (exiling them), there aren't enough instants or sorceries in the graveyard to trigger spell mastery. Awkward.
Ultimately, while the effects of Dark Petition are very powerful (you could get Necropotence instead of Yawgmoth's Will in the previous example), I think there are enough cases like that where Dark Petition will cost too much or not have spell mastery that it lacks the reliability necessary for popular Vintage play, especially in faster combo decks.
Worse still, it has a base cost of five, putting it way out of range against most Mishra's Workshop opponents and their Sphere of Resistance effects, as well as any aggro decks playing Thalia, Guardian of Thraben and mana denial. Demonic Tutor is a powerful, low-investment spell, but Dark Petition takes a lot more effort to play and resolve to full effect.
I will also point out that as far as five-mana game-winning black spells go in Vintage, Ad Nauseam still exists and is mostly unplayed. Unlike Dark Petition, AdNaus has no restrictions on how it resolves and gets more cards when it does. If your Vintage deck wants to win the game with five black mana, Ad Nauseam might be the better way to go.
Et Cetera
Day's Undoing and Dark Petition both have the pedigree to see play in Vintage, and they have the power to make some waves if they catch on. However, there is a surprising number of other cards with Vintage applications. Their addition probably won't change the look of the format, but they'll add a little to certain decks.
White Trash is one scary deck that uses the consistent power of white disruptive creatures and Cavern of Souls to stop a typical Vintage gameplan, hindering artifacts (Kataki, War's Wage and Leonin Relic-Warder), spells (Thalia, Guardian of Thraben), drawing (Spirit of the Labyrinth), and tutoring (Aven Mindcensor, Leonin Arbiter). It can be a powerful deck if the right effects come together in the right amount. Magic Origins' Vryn Wingmare adds another potential taxing effect to Thalia (along with Glowrider). The three-mana cost isn't particularly exciting and it shares a creature type with nothing relevant for Cavern of Souls purposes, but flying is still relevant in the format, especially when it could be combined with equipment (especially Umezawa's Jitte) and Stoneforge Mystic.
Personally, I'd like to see someone build a deck that starts with 4 Thalia, 4 Glowrider, 4 Vryn Wingmare, 4 Thorn of Amethyst, 4 Lodestone Golem, and 1 Trinisphere. All sphere effects all the time.
Elves! can be an exciting combo deck that overwhelms its opponent with creatures and tokens and a large amount of green mana. (Incidentally, the permanents and the mana make it somewhat resilient against Workshops.) Recent finishers in the deck—beyond attacking with 1/1 green guys, that is—have included Craterhoof Behemoth (attacking with 15/15 green guys) and Grapeshot, made lethal thanks to Glimpse of Nature and more elves. Shaman of the Pack is a new potential game-winner in Elves!, encouraging the use of Thoughtseize for disruption and providing a new way to win outside the combat phase. Green Sun's Zenith finds it, and Wirewood Symbiote bounces it for additional uses.
Finally, I'm not sure if the Leyline Deck has a name, but the idea is to play plenty of the format's decent Leylines (starting with Leyline of the Void, Leyline of Sanctity, and Leyline of Singularity), then use Serra's Sanctum to make enough mana to put Opalescence into play and attack with free 4/4s, potentially killing on turn one. It's a fun novelty deck, but it lacks some consistency since the animation effect won't be in every opener. New in Magic Origins, Starfield of Nyx will add some consistency to the deck, acting as Opalescence five through eight, as necessary. It will still be a novelty deck because of the amount of room the Leylines take up, but it might see some new action.
Et Cetera, Et Cetera…
There are a few other cards that might have some applications but that likely won't see a significant amount of play. They'll show up in sideboards and as one-ofs in some player's experimental lists, but not enough to take notice of. I'll list them (in my opinion) in some kind of order.
Liliana, Heretical Healer, is easy to transform into Liliana, Defiant Necromancer. Her initial stats aren't bad; she comes with a free 2/2 zombie to protect herself; and her first planeswalker ability (a +2!) has already proved valuable on other Liliana of the Veil. Unfortunately, her other abilities, while valuable, are not going to be inherently powerful in Vintage without a creature-based deck built around them. Black creature-based decks haven't been in vogue recently, so there's not an immediate home for the card. A creative brewer should be able to put something together that uses the Heretical Healing abilities well, but in most Vintage-ready black decks I think Liliana of the Veil is going to be the go-to.
Molten Vortex has good text and a reasonable mana cost, compared to Seismic Assault's three red. Repeatable damage is certainly a benefit, and the cards goes well with things like Gush and Life from the Loam, as well as in land-heavy decks like Landstill. The biggest problem with the Vortex is that it can't one-hit kill a Lodestone Golem and won't always kill a Monastery Mentor, thanks to prowess. Three damage at the printed costs would be too good, but as is, I think the card is a little too weak for Vintage.
Hangarback Walker is interesting for an aggressive Workshop deck, mostly thanks to its scalability, resiliency, and interactions with Arcbound Ravager and other creatures with +1/+1 counters. Sharing a creature type with Metalworker and Kuldotha Forgemaster for Cavern of Souls purposes won't hurt either. The issue of course is that there are bigger, badder artifact creatures (hello, Wurmcoil Engine) and Walker doesn't provide any disruption. Maybe we'll finally see a proliferate based deck with Thrumming Bird, Tezzeret's Gambit, Smokestack, Tangle Wire, Chalice of the Void, Ravager, Triskelion, and this.
A few people asked about some other cards. Deathblade Predator has a powerful effect, and its mana cost is reasonable, but there are easier hoops to jump through for creature-based combos. There's also less chance of it connecting because of the format's other creatures. Jace, Vryn's Prodigy, is easy to flip but won't be as good as Snapcaster Mage for the planeswalker ability you really want to use. And, while flexible, Displacement Wave is an expensive answer, especially against Workshops where it would be most needed. Hurkyl's Recall is still going to be tops in that category, and Toxic Deluge is better against creatures.
Results from the NYSE Vintage Open 3
Last weekend (27 June), more than 150 players gathered in Plainview, New York outside the City for a 15-proxy, $100-entry Vintage tournament. The top eight finishers would draft Black Lotus, Ancestral Recall, Time Walk, and the Moxes; places 9 through 12 would receive a Mishra's Workshop each; and 13 through 16 would get a Bazaar of Baghdad. Nick Detwiler hosted the event with the other members of the New York Stax Exchange, and Card Titan (host of Vintage Champs) provided streaming services. The archived video is available already, if you're interested.
The size of the event and its timing—along with the proxies that open the metagame to the perceived best decks rather than those concerned with budget—position it as a benchmark for the format right before the July restricted restricted list update alongside Magic Origins.
When the dust had settled, the top eight denoted a format that is surprisingly healthy: two different Workshops decks (Arcbound Ravagers and Kuldotha Forgemasters), two Landstill control decks, Tasigur Bomberman, Dredge, BUG Fish, and a UR Magus of the Moon control deck called "The Answer." The blue decks all had strong control elements, but couldn't get past the more linear artifact and graveyard based foes. Ravager Shops and Dredge made it to the finals, and Dredge won in decisive fashion with multiple Bazaar of Baghdad in game two.
It is surprising that Monastery Mentor, Young Pyromancer, and Oath of Druids were missing from the elimination rounds despite their popularity, but that's indicative of a predicted environment. The control decks knew what they were going to face and were successful in their preparations to beat it.
It is likewise encouraging that, while Mishra's Workshop decks were also popular at the event (35 out of 150 players), their presence in the field and in the top eight wasn't overwhelming. Ravagers and Forgemasters won their quarterfinal matches and faced each other in the semis, at that point guaranteeing at least one Workshop deck would be in the finals. Artifacts are allowed to win games too, and 25% representation at the end is acceptable, especially considering that five of the other decks would have been playing four Force of Wills each.
And Dredge, piloted by a competent player like tournament winner Sullivan Brophy, who was able to navigate not only his own deck's intricacies but the wrenches and bricks thrown by opponents' hate cards, is a constant threat to go deep and win events.
So, looking ahead to the coming week's restricted list update, I expect that something from the Best Draw Engine in Vintage will be restricted, likely Dig Through Time or Gush. I would hate to see the whole thing (Dig, Gush, and Preordain) get nuked, as sweeping changes like that don't make very useful gauges on the effects of individual cards. That much would throw the format into complete disarray and leave players wondering if individual cards would still be okay for the format. It would be similar to when Brainstorm, Ponder, Merchant Scroll, Gush, and Flash were restricted simultaneously in 2008.
Restricting Gush and leaving Dig Through Time would take Young Pyromancer and Monastery Mentor decks down a peg (they would still exist), but leave intact several other decks that are using Dig as a two- or three-of without Gush. Dig Through Time is exceptionally powerful, but it might slow down enough without Gush. Restricting Gush also discourages small (18- and 19-card) manabases that are weak to Workshops and other mana disruption, perhaps pushing Workshop decks back a little.
Restricting Dig Through Time leaving Gush would let Pyromancer and Mentor continue in their dominant position, where they had been before the delve spells were printed, except with the added one-of Dig and Treasure Cruise. Also, I'm fairly certain every blue deck would add restricted Dig Through Time to the growing ranks of blue spells that everyone plays as a one-of because why wouldn't you?
As such, my instinct would be to restrict Gush (again, for the third time) and see where things go. If Dig Through Time continues to be absurd, restrict it in a few months.
I also don't think Workshop decks need restriction currently. There are multiple calls for Lodestone Golem and Chalice of the Void to be restricted, but I just can't agree. (Danny Batterman wrote a well-reasoned consideration of all of these changes on his blog, so you can get more than just my opinions.) Chalice of the Void is easy enough to dodge with varied deck construction and hate cards that don't all share a casting cost, and the best spells right now are all over, starting with mana costs of eight and five. Chalice also appears frequently enough in non-Workshop decks like The Answer and Merfolk that restricting it goes beyond punishing Workshops. Likewise, Lodestone Golem is a creature, easily answered by Modern removal.
Workshops plays challenging cards and changes the nature of the game, but its artifact-based strategies are not unbeatable. Honestly, if the Jeskai Ascendancy deck I've been playing recently has a positive record against Workshops, trying to resolve a three-mana, three-color enchantment, the deck must be beatable. Chalice is pretty weak when your best cards cost two, three, five, and eight. Obviously that's a miniscule sample size, but putting in the work to test the matchup and the sideboard makes a big difference in results.
It will be interesting to see where Wizards goes with this announcement since it will have direct effect on any sanctioned events at Gen Con as well as the sooner-than-usual Vintage Championship in August.
Lots more Vintage news on the horizon too since, as I'm writing this, new mulligan rules have been proposed that might affect how Workshops, Dredge, combo, and other decks that can't easily manipulate their draws might play out. Thanks for reading!

Hello loves! I thought as we are entering in the winter period I'd bring you a skincare post with a few things I'm loving from the Bioderma Sebium Mat Control range that I've been trialing. I have tried the Micellar water and the shine control Pore Refiner.
Micellar waters have been around for years now and some are better than others. If you have never tried Micellar water, they are essentially a watery cleanser, which has been infused with oils to remove makeup & daily grime leaving the skin clean and fresh. It's a really fuss-free way to cleanse the skin without the need of water, so great for on the go. I am a big fan of having a bottle hanging around because occasionally, only very occasionally I must add, I am just too tired or tipsy to stand at the sink and take my makeup off! I have used the original Bioderma Water in previous years and really got along with it, It seemed to be kind to my skin and didn't leave too much of a residue on the surface of my skin like some other brands can. I thought it was about time to try another one from their range.
Bioderma Sébium H2O has been formulated especially for oily to combination skin so it shouldn't cause breakouts or excessive dryness; well it didn't for me anyway. By swiping a Micellar soaked cotton pad over my skin and even my eyes gently removed most traces of makeup. I have to say, it's not 100% effective at getting every scrap of mascara off but that doesn't bother me too much because I then go in for a second cleanse with a balm cleanser. I don't think I've ever used Micellar water that has removed my mascara in one go, so this is not a fault of the Bioderma Sébium H2O.
This is one of those products that I totally recommend you have in, you know, just in case you can't be bothered taking your makeup off when tired (or drunk in my case!). I personally wouldn't remove a proper cleanser from my routine in the place of Micellar water but there is no denying how handy they actually are.
Grab a bottle of the Bioderma Sébium H2O from Feel Unique for £10.79(250ml), and £15.97(500ml).
There are those rare times in life when you find a product that's a littler hero and fixes all those skin problems in your life. Recently though, I felt that little magical moment again, when I tested the Bioderma Sèbium Pore Refiner for the first time. I know what you're thinking, who has that sort of "moment" with a product. But really, when you have combination skin that's pimple-prone, happiness can come in the form of finding a pore refining skincare product that works wonders. It's the beginning of a long and happy relationship I'm telling you.
The Bioderma Sèbium Pore Refiner is primarily a skincare product that refines the skin's texture and regulates excessive sebum production, but it has dual use as a makeup primer. There is a small amount of salicylic acid included to treat existing pimples and keep them from growing into monstrosities (we all hate those angry red ones you can get at that time of the month!).
What sets this apart from other pore refiners on the market is that it does not smooth out the appearance of skin by simply plugging up the pores with fillers, which bad because it means you are blocking sebum production completely, yet just controls the production of sebum. Most people assume sebum is the enemy but we actually need that stuff to keep our skin properly moisturised.
The back of the box can explain what this stuff does for your skin much better than I can but I will summarise the most important bits in my opinion:
As well as being non-comedogenic it has other ingredients that regulate sebum production instead of completely aiming to stop it. You never want to eliminate sebum completely because excessively dry skin can also create spots; I was shocked when I found that out too!
You don't have to use this all over your face and you don't even have to use it twice a day, although you could do both of those things if you think you need to. All I'd suggest is monitor your skin and use when you think is necessary.
It leaves a "pleasant velvety finish" which is nice to the touch, plus you can't even feel the stuff sitting on the skin, which is a real benefit. As mentioned earlier, this stuff can also be used as a makeup base and it's that velvety finish that allows foundations to glide over the skin smoothly. It does not really extend wear time, but it doesn't make it any shorter either. It's more of the texture of the skin that changes when using this.
You get 30ml, which is a good amount because you don't need to much of the stuff per use. If you use it only on your T-Zone, it should last you a very long time. The product itself feels like a cross between a gel and a cream, which is very lightweight and easy to spread. Although it's a translucent white initially, it smooths onto the skin clear. There is a slight scent to it, which reminds me a bit of green apple although this is not overpowering. It doesn't linger any more than a minute though so if you don't like it, it shouldn't be too much of a problem.
For just 1,430.00 Php, this is the best pore corrector on the market. You get so much more than just instant pore correction since this is truly a skincare product and not just a makeup base/primer.
I don't use this every day whenever I do, my skin looks and feels better. I usually pick it up when I feel the excess sebum weighing my skin down in the morning or when I know I have a breakout coming along. It will do you loads more than any one product can; I really recommend this if you are going to get anything from the range.
Grab a bottle of the Bioderma Sèbium PoreRefiner from Feel Unique for £15.49 (30ml).
All products from Bioderma are 3 for 2 at the moment on Feel Unique, grab yourself a bargain!
Have you ever tried this range from Bioderma? If you haven't I really suggest you do!
Love Ciandra x

Airborne needed to gain fast awareness for the brand's forms and flavors in social media. To do so, we had to break through the clutter on the Facebook news feed and even get people to share the news.
Channeling our crafted heritage, we tapped undiscovered artists to create their own Vine-like videos about Airborne. The brief was simple: be Airborne, and have fun.
With a media investment on Facebook, we were able to reach more than 30 million users in our core target in one week. That's more than half our target who tuned in to the Super Bowl. And consumers engaged, with seven times our average click through and three quarters of a million interactions, resulting in a 50% incremental sales lift for the brand.

Born and raised in England, Laura Cowan studied silversmithing before making Aliya and settling with her family in Tel Aviv. There, she blended her fresh ideas and dynamic creativity, producing a clean contemporary style of Judaica. Her products struck a responsive chord and were an immediate success. She continues to delight a growing circle of enthusiastic fans with the unique style of her handcrafted Mezuzahs, Holiday tableware, candlesticks, Kiddush cups and more.
Laura Cowan grew up with traditional Judaica. Convinced that this was boring and irrelevant for modern Jews, she committed herself to create a new style of contemporary Judaica that would attract young people and give them pride in their Jewish heritage. She has succeeded beyond her dreams. Using gleaming stainless steel and polished aluminum, her products have generated worldwide interest and received raving reviews. She has changed the face of traditional Judaica.
Whatever Laura Cowan produces, is always strikingly original with a story or message behind the design. Her family is involved in her creative activities – new lines are regularly tested at home before marketing!
Inspired by the excitement of the race to land a man on the moon in the 1960's, she perpetuated this with a series of space age Mezuzot that resemble rocket shapes. One of them was even included in the baggage of astronaut Greg Chamitoff during his momentous space voyage. Her moonscape Seder Plate models the craters of the moon.
Adding to the variety and drama of Laura's creative activity is her use of magnets to adjust the shape and size of her products.
Laura Cowan's original and unique Judaica items speak to the contemporary Jew and are always a prestigious gift. They blend seamlessly into the d&233;cor of modern style homes anywhere in the world.

Subscribe an external mailing list to all bugmail?
I'm running a mailing list for mksh upstream and would like it to receive all bugmail, instead of just the MirOS Developers team, but not set it up as team to give it any control. Optimally, only bugmail, no administrativa, would be sent to it.
However, I could not find information how to do precisely that. Is this possible with Launchpad?

|Curtis Hovey (sinzui) said :
Launchpad does not officially support this case.
Launchpad sends bug mail to the preferred email address of users.. Teams can also have a contact address. People have set a user or team address to a mailing list in the past, but we do not advise anyone doing this. Bugs can contain personal or security information that must not be disclosed to everyone. For example, when users report Launchpad has leaked an email address, we commonly find the real source was a bug subscriber using a mailing list, the emails were placed in a public archive.
I am note sure what you mean by only bug mail. I image you want to to "Subscribe to bug email" at
Can you help with this problem?
Provide an answer of your own, or ask Thorsten Glaser for more information if necessary.

"INFINITESIMAL TO INFINITE - An intergalactic solo show in Houston, TX!
Tuesday, June 17, 2014
I'm coming to Houston everyone!! The land of BBQ, NASA and a wonderful museum district.
I met Leila & her husband, the owners of Space Montrose, a little over a year ago at Renegade Craft Fair Austin. Leila, like many of her shop's patrons, is a geek at heart, and I thought it would be perfect to bring my illustrated explorations of space to her shop for a art exhibition. Won't you join us? It's the first exhibition in their new location, and the opening happens to fall on the summer solstice. So there's lots to celebrate!
I'll be sharing illustrations of intergalactic adventures, nostalgic & nerdy nods, and starry explorations so it'll be a good time. Also come and share your favorite eateries! Kevin and I are dying for good BBQ :)

Supahcute Science Fair opens this Saturday!
Friday, March 07, 2014
I'm super excited to be a part of the Supahcute Science Fair at Leanna Lin's Wonderland because one, it's an amazing roster of talented artist, and two, SCIENCE!! Little known fact: I was a biology major during my freshman year at USC. Weird, right? I totally wanted to work in the sciences and be a geek in a lab, etc, but the calling for art was stronger. So this combines my two great loves. I hope you can attend!
If not, you can view the art online very soon. I'll post a link when ready. UPDATE: Here's the link to view & purchase the art. All my pieces sold (yipeee!!) but there are some really amazing ones still left!!

Huzzah for Square Market!!
Wednesday, February 05, 2014
If you're a small business owner or a frequenter of craft fairs and small, local businesses, you've probably noticed a little white credit card reader plugged into ipads and smart phones giving practically anyone the ability to take credit card transactions. What is it? Why... it's SQUARE! It's brilliant and has certainly made my life as a small business owner less stressful. I even keep one on my person just in case (it's come in handy for on the spot illustration transactions). And you can request one for free, or snag one at the info booth at most Renegade Craft Fairs. They're usually there repping.
Perhaps not as well known is the Square Market. Think of it as another version of Etsy but without the facade of being all "handmade" (quotations around handmade because I've been seeing more and more mass-produced items on there and it's watering down the quality of Etsy, but that's another topic). It's marketplace to find small businesses, and it's absolutely wonderful. They've been putting together gift guides as well, and I had the great fortune of being featured on their latest two. If you haven't browsed through Square Market, you're in for a treat. Make sure you set a budget for yourself though! ;).
You can view my shop here.
THANKS for making the first IG art sale a SUCCESS!!
Monday, February 03, 2014
Ahhh!! Thank you to everyone who followed along the Original Art Sale on Instagram. this past Wednesday. It was so much fun! I painted 8 illustrations on the spot, from 1-3pm. I can't get over how quick everyone was. I hope it wasn't too distracting from work ;). I also took some videos of my process, a very tricky task while you draw. My hands were shaking from the adrenaline and nervousness, my mind spun trying to figure out the next illustration. I've been busy with filling Valentine's Day orders and custom work so although stressful, the thrill and joy of drawing whatever I wanted was so gratifying and a necessary pause from the hustle. I'll be hosting another one soon FOR SURE.
Have a look at some of the illustrations I painted--

Bariatric Advantage High Protein Vegetable Soup mix is a savory option for supplementing protein intake. Mix with cream cheese or yogurt for a tasty dip. Each serving provides:
Free shipping on orders over $75.00
|Ingredients: Pea Protein, vegetable seasoning [yeast extract, maltodextrin, salt, sugar, onion powder, garlic powder, tomato powder, carrot, natural and artificial flavor, silicon dioxide (anti-caking agent), spice, natural hickory smoke flavor], Mirepoix powder, [maltodextrin, onion, salt, sugar, yeast extract, corn salad oil, carrot, celery, spices, red wine], sodium chloride, silicon dioxide, tomato seasoning [yeast extract, salt, sugar, tomato powder, onion powder, garlic powder, natural and artificial flavor, carrot, maltodextrin, silicon dioxide (anti-caking agent), spice, natural hickory smoke flavor] and parsley flakes (dried).
Bariatric Advantage High Protein Vegetable Soup delivers 20 g of protein and only 5 g of carbohydrates and 2 g of fat per serving. Savory option for supplementing protein intake.
Protein deficiency is common after bariatric surgery as dietary intake of protein is generally reduced following procedures. Studies have shown that even 12 months after bariatric surgery many patients are not getting the minimal recommended daily protein intake of 60 grams/day.1
ASMBS guidelines for post-surgical bariatric patients call for a minimum protein intake of 60 g/day and up to 1.5 g per kg of ideal body weight per day with higher levels to be assessed on an individualized basis.2 Other bariatric clinical guidelines state 70-90 grams per day as likely more adequate while some patients may need >100 grams of protein per day based on their procedure and body weight.
Protein is a major functional and structural component of all the cells of the body.

THE ICONIC NordicTrack Pro SKIER
In an industry where fitness fads come and go, the iconic NordicTrack Pro Cross-Country Ski Machine has endured as a durable and effective favorite for over 40 years! Have you ever wondered about the secret to it's lasting popularity and passionate cult following?
The NordicTrack Pro Skier is the flagship model of what was once a large line of at-home Cross-Country ski exercise machines. The smooth, natural motion of NordicTrack ski machines offer a gentle, non-impact exercise without discomfort. Adjustable resistance and elevation let you adjust the intensity of your workouts to your own goals and specifications. The attached feedback monitor window tracks time, distance, calories, and pulse. The lasting construction of the steel and oak frame led Bloomberg Magazine to comment, "once you have a NordicTrack, you never need another one."
BENEFITS of CROSS-COUNTRY SKIING
Cross-country skiing is an all over, full body aerobic exercise that engages all major muscle groups in the core, upper body, & lower body. The upright, weight bearing position burns hundreds of calories per hour while while simultaneously working both the "pulling" and "pushing" muscles of each region. The gliding motion avoids major shock to the feet, knees, & hips, making it easy on the body. Finally, the natural motion is easy to learn – it's similar to swinging your arms (or swinging walking sticks) when walking.
FEATURES of NordicTrack Pro SKI MACHINE
The non-motorized NordicTrack Pro is quieter than most electronic equipment and can be used anywhere with no need for access to an electric outlets. The wheeled, folding design can easily be moved and stored out of the way. An electronic monitor keeps track of time, distance, calories burned, and heart rate. New NordicTrack Pro Skiers include a one (1) year warranty on parts. Adjustable resistance and elevation settings customize the workout to your individual intensity preferences. The lon-impact exercise (feet stay on ground) is easy on the body's joints.
CAVEATS of NordicTrack SKI MACHINES
If there is any drawback to the NordicTrack skiers, it is that they have a brief learning curve. The motion is natural and easy once you understand that the one-way clutch only provides resistance as you push the ski back behind you. There is no resistance as you pull the ski forward – do not "shuffle" your feet or you could lose balance (the shuffle motion is a common requirement in lesser quality machines). With the help of customer service and a multitude of instructional videos, it is an easy thing to master. New machines purchased from NordicTrack.com also have a 30-day return policy, to allow plenty of time to learn this new skill.
WHERE to BUY NordicTrack Pro Ski Machines

ADDITIONAL NordicTrack SKI MACHINE INFORMATION
Your NordicTrack Pro Skier is designed to last for years, and regular Maintenance will ensure this lasting experience. Parts that get regular wear (like resistance straps and springs) will evenutally wear out over many, many miles of use. Fortunately, these parts are easy to replace yourself with parts you can purchase online.
Finally, you may enjoy the option to enhance your workout experience with custom made Accessories for the NordicTrack Pro Skier. A drink holder, custom molded hand grips, or Cross-Country skiing exercise videos can make the chore of working out a much more pleasant event!
