I'm a sucker for Instagram shopping and I love to discover new and exciting things to try – much to the dismay of my bank balance.
I came across Motivacelet a little while back and love the idea- bracelets to count weight loss that are subtle but so pretty and you can use for a number of things.
It's such a simple concept – you choose a bracelet and add counters per unit of weight you lose, and it can be your little secret or shown off to the world as you lose weight.
You don't have to use it just for weight – why not count inches, centimetres, or anything you like.
I am pleased to say I have one of the beautiful Active bangles to give away to one lucky person – please see below to enter and good luck!

Many construction contracts contain mandatory or discretionary mediation clauses allowing parties to resolve their disputes prior to litigation or arbitration. Also, mediation may be a good option midway through litigation or arbitration when the parties have engaged in discovery and have a better feel for the strengths and weaknesses of their respective positions. In general, construction mediation is used to settle disputes regarding a construction contract between an owner, general contractors, subcontractors, engineers, architects, developers, and material suppliers.
During the construction mediation process, all sides to a dispute have the opportunity to present their view of the case. Unlike the arbitration process, during the construction mediation process, the mediator has no authority to make a decision or legally binding solution. Instead, by using a number of techniques, a mediator or neutral third party, will attempt to resolve the issue at hand by facilitating discussions between the disputing parties and their attorneys.
Construction mediation typically will last between a day to a few days and is relatively inexpensive as there are no court filing fees or other related costs associated with construction mediation other than the hiring of a mediator and a lawyer to help with your case. The process is designed to allow all parties an opportunity to express their needs, wants, and concerns, and develop a solution that not only addresses the issues at hand but is also beneficial to the parties involved, which ultimately leads to better results.
When dealing with construction disputes and when faced with a construction mediation, it is highly recommended to seek the guidance and skill set of an experienced construction dispute lawyer. The construction attorneys at Shields | Mott have decades of combined experience representing parties in the construction industry who find themselves involved in complex construction disputes and construction mediations. The Shields Mott professionals work hard with mediators to arrive at creative solutions to end dispute allow clients to move forward with their attention focused on their businesses and not litigation.

Long time and regular readers here know I subscribe to the K.I.S.S . Principle.
This applies to Christmas too.
I simply do not and I refuse to buy into the over hyped and ever lengthening commercial Christmas season.
We, and especially children, do not need a perfectly decorated house. What we all need is love.
We, and especially children, do not need more and more gourmet meals and baked goods. What we all need is to experience being cared for.
We, and especially children, do not need more stuff. What we all need is more loving interaction with people.
Here are a few last minute ways to KISS this Christmas.
These are an easy and festive dessert or treat anytime during the holiday and winter season. They look like colorful snowballs.
They are also very easy so children can help make them and experience Christmas.
Place about ½ cup of coconut flakes on each of two plates. Add a few drops of red food coloring drops to one plate and a few drops of green food coloring to the other plate of flakes. Toss the flakes with a fork until coconut is tinted.
Quickly roll a scoop of ice cream, any flavor, in the tinted coconut. Place on a parchment paper lined cookie sheet and freeze until serving time.
For smaller ice cream balls use a meatball baller.
You can do the same thing for Easter using yellow and green food coloring; or on the 4th of July using red, white, and blue.
This is a fun way to serve breakfast on Christmas morning or any time during the holiday season for kids of all ages.
To the right: Picture of Valentine toast.
If you make a Christmas tree you can use squeeze bottles of different flavored jellies and make ornaments on the tree. Top the tree with a peanut butter star.
You can create an inexpensive table centerpiece by simply placing unused Christmas tree ornaments in a glass bowl. Add some glitter to the bowl too, if you like. Or add a snippet or two or three of greens from your tree, or tinsel in between some of the ornaments. You can also pile the ornaments around a pillar candle.
You can also place a candle in a glass bowl and pour some fresh cranberries around it for a wonderful table centerpiece.
Or fill glass vases or bottles with water and add some holiday colored food coloring. Then add a tea light candle or two to the vase.
I think the title here is self explanatory. Just read one Christmas themed story book to your children every night for the twelve days before. Then have the experience culminate on Christmas Day with a gift of a book from you. Sign and date the book too. Create memories to last a lifetime. If you don't have twelve days left, make it x number of Christmas stories.
The gift of reading to your children is a gift of love that will last a lifetime. It teaches so many things: the love of books and reading, listening skills, reading skills, cadence, how to read with meaning and excitement to name just a few.I did this when I taught 1st grade. The kids loved it. I always started with the poem The Twelve Days of Christmas so they would get the idea of why twelve days.
If you use the library this can be a totally free activity. If you don't know what books to read, ask the children's librarian.
Following are some children book titles I like and would recommend. This list is by no means exhaustive. There are millions more. Find the ones you like and can read with enthusiasm.
And don't forget to take care of yourself. To help you relax and let go of stress take a warm bath with this wonderful home made bath soak recipe.
Pour powdered milk and oil together directly under spigot of running water.
Add essential oil just before stepping into the bath.
Light a Christmas candle. Hang a 'Do Not Disturb" sign on the door and pamper yourself for 15 minutes. You deserve it!!!
While you are busy sounds like in laws are interesting. I have 93 year old neighbors and they are a delight. However, they hardly eat anything. Neither is over weight either.
Wishing you a wonderful Christmas too, Maureen.
Sounds like the perfect Christmas! Love it!
Thank you, kind sir. Wishing you a happy and blessed Christmas.
Roberta, hello. Loving your Kiss suggestions. Have yourself a very Merry Christmas, my friend.
Wishing you a very merry, happy, and blessed Christmas, Virginia.

President Obama is continuing his use of gay people as a campaign tool. Sadly, Ellen DeGeneres falls for it, as do others.
Real talk – squee! If by "talk," one means worthless pandering.
He then doubled down on the cash-in attempt this afternoon.
Sigh. Scare tactics yet again. Just like how the Arizona immigration bill wouldn't allow people to walk down the street to get ice cream.
Thankfully, not everyone falls for the President's transparent and shameless use of gay people as a means to achieve his own end.
@BarackObama What does that have to do with the #President? Are you doing something about this supposed problem?
@BarackObama unless its a couple having an affair.
@BarackObama You can't take us there. We know where you headed with that comment. Respect your faith community followers.
Empty, simplistic rhetoric and meaningless platitudes, as usual. President Obama should try walking down the street with big boy pants on for once.
President Obama continues to claim 'gay pride' for himself.


Reason to celebrate: April 15, 2019 is National Take A Wild Guess Day.
National Take a Wild Guess Day. National Rubber Eraser Day. Moving on we have: National Talk Like Shakespeare Day (which is almost as annoying as Talk Like a Pirate Day.) National American Beer Day (This shouldn't just be a day but a holiday.).

Unfortunately I don't think they have Jake and the Neverland Pirates costumes at the Pirates League. I took my son (also 4) and daughter (8) there last December, and the costumes are nice, but pretty generic. I'm certain if you find a Jake costume and bring it with you, however, they wouldn't have a problem with you using that instead of what they offer.

6D Motorcycle Helmets Prevent More Harm

The more recent history of Haunton Hall is closely linked with the Church of St Michael and St James and a community of Roman Catholic nuns. Charles Edward Mousley inherited the hall in the 1840s, and by 1845 had provided a chapel at the hall dedicated to the Immaculate Conception and available for Catholic services. By 1885 a church dedicated to St Michael had replaced the chapel for services. This church had been built with the support of the Squire of Clifton Campville, Henry John Pye, the son in law of the Anglican bishop Samuel Wilberforce. Pye had once been the Anglican rector of Clifton parish, but had since converted to Catholicism. This early church was soon extended, reusing masonry from the by then ruined Chapel of St James the Greater, and received its current name, adding the former dedication to the new. In 1902 this church was replaced by a new one, designed by Edmund Kirby, with the support of the latest tenant of Haunton Hall, Lady Frances Mostyn, mother of the future archbishop Francis Mostyn. Built of stone, in a neo-gothic style, it has a small timber bell tower, and contains stained glass from the firm of John Hardman and Company.
In 1904 a group of French nuns, the Sisters of St Joseph of Bordeaux, set up a convent in Haunton Hall. This later became the St. Joseph Convent School for Girls. In 1987 the school closed and the hall is now a nursing home, with the nuns moving to a new convent.

Little Nicky
Roger Ebert November 10, 2000
I've met Adam Sandler a couple of times and he's a nice guy, smart and personable. Considering what I've written about his movies, he could also be described as forgiving and tactful. What I cannot understand is why he has devoted his career to finding new kinds of obnoxious voices and the characters to go along with them.
Consider Nicky, the star of his new film, "Little Nicky." Nicky may be the spawn of Satan, but his two brothers, Cassius (Tommy "Tiny" Lister Jr.) and Adrian (Rhys Ifans), are reasonably presentable. Nicky, on the other hand, looks like the star of a low-rent road company version of "Richard III," has a face twisted out of plumb (one of his brothers socked him in the head with a shovel) and speaks in yet another bizarre Sandler voice--sort of a mush-mouthed lisping whine.
Thinking back over the movie, I'm not sure why. Nicky is an intriguing comic character, whose appeal doesn't depend on how he talks or looks--Sandler's contributions, indeed, detract from the character. I try to imagine the movie with Nicky played as a more ordinary guy, and I think it would benefit (hundreds of millions of dollars of Sandler box-office grosses suggest I could be wrong).
Anthony Hopkins talks about how he needs to find a character's "mask" before he can play him. Many actors find it painful to play themselves, and are comfortable only after they find the right mask or persona to occupy. Is it that way with Sandler? I dunno, but for his next movie I suggest a mask that allows him to play an adult, instead of an infantile grotesque.
The movie surrounding Nicky is actually pretty good--the best Sandler movie to date. The premise: Satan (Harvey Keitel) has been on the job for 10,000 years but decides not to retire. That roils up Cassius and Adrian, who bolt for New York and freeze the gates of Hades behind them. Without fresh souls to feed on, Satan starts to disintegrate, literally. First an ear falls off, and then it's one thing after another, until he's reduced to two hands holding his mouth. (It's Keitel's most piecemeal perfor-mance ho, ho.) Worried about his old man, Little Nicky is able to follow his brothers to Manhattan, where a talking bulldog named Beefy befriends him. Soon he is occupying an authentic New York-style hell (i.e., his roommate is an actor), but he meets a fetching young woman (Patricia Arquette) who somehow likes him, even though he occasionally blurts out disgusting things. His excuse: The devil made him do it.
The plot is populated with large numbers of stars in cameo roles: Rodney Dangerfield as Nicky's grandfather, Ozzy Osborne as himself, Quentin Tarantino as a blind preacher, supplying yet another reminder that he should be directing movies, not infiltrating them. The best cameo is by Reese Witherspoon, as an angel with dubious genes, who talks like a Valley Girl and knows God: "He's so smart!" she says. "Like--`Jeopardy' smart!" Newscasts chart the progress as hell's ambassadors change New York. The city motto, "I Love NY," becomes "I love hookers," the drinking age is lowered to 10 (setting up the obligatory projectile vomiting scene without which no Sandler movie is complete) and--my favorite--the Harlem Globetrotters start being called for traveling violations and technical fouls.
All of this is kinda fun, and some of it more than that. I can see how "Little Nicky" could have worked, It's just that Sandler, at the center, is a distraction; he steals scenes, and we want him to give them back. He's 35 now. I know you can play an adolescent all of your life (consider Jerry Lewis), but isn't it time for us to see the real Adam Sandler? When I met him, I thought to myself, this guy has movie star potential.

Goessel gets big win over Peabody-Burns
in High School / by Janae Rempel / on October 22, 2019 at 10:14 am /
Goessel's Jacob Hagewood rushes for a 37-yard touchdown to give the Bluebirds an early, 8-0 lead over Peabody-Burns.Janae Rempel/Free Press
Big plays contributed to a 56-8 victory for the Goessel football team over Peabody-Burns Friday.
The Bluebirds rolled up 463 yards of offense, fueled by quarterback Dylan Lindeman, who completed 10 of 12 pass attempts for 279 yards and three touchdowns.
Two Bluebird receivers surpassed the century mark, with Luke Wiens hauling in three receptions for 136 yards and one touchdown, and Jacob Hagewood recording three catches for 115 yards and two touchdowns.
"We've been talking a lot lately about controlling what we can control," Goessel coach Garrett Hiebert said. "That was probably our biggest focus this week—to just do the things that we know we can do and let everything else take care of itself. I think what I was most proud of tonight was our ability to be flexible and adjust and be unselfish."
Hagewood scored Goessel's first three touchdowns—on the first play from scrimmage each time. Hagewood put the Bluebirds on the board with a 37-yard touchdown run with 11:21 left in the opening quarter. Luke Wiens' two-point conversion run gave Goessel an early, 8-0, lead.
Less than 3 minutes later, Hagewood hauled in a 51-yard touchdown pass from Lindeman for a 14-0 score, which held through the end of the first quarter.
Lindeman connected with Hagewood a second time for a 59-yard touchdown pass with 8:05 left in the half. Jake Wiens' two-point conversion run brought the score to 22-0.
After a potential touchdown pass by Peabody-Burns fell incomplete in the end zone, Goessel added to its advantage with a 62-yard touchdown strike from Lindeman to Luke Wiens with 32 seconds left in the half, bringing the score at intermission to 28-0.
Peabody-Burns quarterback Jack Parks left the game during the third quarter with an apparent injury, and Rocco Weerts stepped in, having experience at quarterback last season, according to Warrior coach Kody Tegtmeier.
The Bluebirds scored again late in the third quarter. Lindeman completed a 56-yard pass to Luke Wiens to set up a 5-yard touchdown run by Kale Funk as time expired. Jake Wiens' two-point conversion reception made it 36-0 at the end of the third quarter.
Jake Wiens crossed the goal line on a 7-yard touchdown run with 10:21 to play for a 42-0 Goessel advantage.
Peabody-Burns' Thomas Page returned the ensuing kickoff to the Goessel 8-yard line, and Weerts put the Warriors on the board with a 3-yard touchdown run. Weerts' two-point conversion run made it 42-8 with 9:16 to play.
Goessel scored twice after that, first on a 9-yard touchdown run by Hagewood at the 6:50 mark, and a game-sealing 41-yard run by Manuel Limon on the first play from scrimmage that brought it to the final, 56-8 margin with 4:51 left in the fourth quarter.
In addition to Goessel's 279 passing yards, the Bluebirds rushed for 184 yards, led by Limon with one carry for 41 yards and one touchdown.
Luke Wiens led the defense with six solo tackles.
Peabody-Burns, meanwhile, recorded 117 yards of offense, including 104 rushing yards, led by Danny Hamman with 15 carries for 47 yards.
Through the air, Weerts was 2-for-5 for 13 yards. Jake Partridge hauled in one 7-yard reception.
Noal Reynolds led the defense with five solo tackles.
"Goessel made it very tough for us all night long," Tegtmeier said. "Their defense was aggressive, flying around making plays all night.We are a team that needs to have positive yards on first and second down, setting us up for short third down situations, and Goessel's defense did a great job of making us play behind the chains all night. We need to watch film, get back to the drawing board and get things corrected before a tough Solomon team comes to town this Friday night."
Coming—Goessel (3-1, 5-2) has clinched a playoff berth and will travel to Bennington (3-1, 5-2) Friday, while Peabody-Burns (1-3, 2-5) will host Solomon (1-3, 3-4).

Native Americans are US citizens, but they are also tribal nationals subject to complex and unique criminal jurisdiction arrangements over Indian lands. Tribal nations typically have tribal court jurisdiction over less serious crimes, but for serious crimes the federal justice system often supersedes tribal authority, exposing Native Americans to more severe punishments. In addition, recent federal programs have attempted to foster greater tribal/federal criminal justice coupling. Yet, examinations of criminal punishment of Native Americans are few, and most are outdated and/or of very limited generalizability. We examine the punishment of Native American defendants in federal court, focusing on 28 federal districts with substantial Indian presence. Using recent US Sentencing Commission data, as well as contextual data from the Bureau of Indian Affairs and tribal courts, we focus on differences in the federal sentencing of Native American defendants, and how these differences are conditioned by indicators of tribal-federal criminal justice coupling.

Kamala Harris: Young People Are 'Stupid' and 'Make Really Bad Decisions'
Cable news pundits claimed on Tuesday night that Kamala Harris could help to motivate young voters, but a speech from 2014 may prove to make that objective more difficult.
During a speech to the Ford Foundation, the then-California Attorney General used young people as a punchline, saying they are "stupid" and that's why they have to live with resident assistants in dormitories.
Harris was talking about drug offenders in the criminal justice system during her time as the San Francisco District Attorney and said, "What's the other thing we know about this population? And it's a specific phase of life. And remember, age is more than a chronological fact. What else do we know about this population, 18 through 24? They are stupid."
The audience burst into laughter. The camera cut to one woman, though, who didn't appear amused.
"That is why we put them in dormitories, and they have a resident assistant," Harris continued.
"They make really bad decisions."
During a Tuesday appearance on MSNBC, Dr. Jason Johnson said, Harris's "challenge going forward, what the Democratic Party needs, they need somebody who's going to make young people enthusiastic."

"That is not necessarily and area of strength for Sen. Harris, but it something she can dedicate her time to doing," he said.
Johnson said that will be necessary because Harris is capable of "cracking a smile and making a joke."

An eagle knight swoops in, lands on the summit, folds dun wings. White plumed head, eyes of black and gold, his humanity is a vestigial thing, an appendix that no longer serves any purpose.
"This is Aeton, who came from Olympus on Aphrodite Terra, Venus." The Speaker gestures at the knight, who bows low, wingtips brushing a pool of chlorophyl. "Vasiliás Ares gave him to me. Do you know who that is?"
"The warrior king of the inner planets." It is not possible to stand unmoved so near an eagle knight. Alejandra's heart beats like a frightened rabbit's, and still she longs to touch his feathers.
"Said I like killing too much." Aeton's words are guttural, slurred, punctuated by the click of a yellow beak. "Not true. Just don't like anything else."

Anyone that knows me, is aware of my obsession with cupcakes. As the famous song goes, when I'm feeling blue…all I have to do is…take a bite out of a cupcake!
I don't mess around when it comes to cupcakes. I have been known to wait in line for up to an hour just to get some Red Velvet from Sprinkles! And I have also managed to convert some of my friends into being believers.
When it comes to cupcakes, I always like to try new places because you never know when you will find a good one! Last winter, I had some cupcakes from a cute little shop in Banff, Canada called the Cozy Cave Bake House . It was definitely a different experience, considering it was -30 degrees and snowing. However, this experience proved to me that it is never too cold to enjoy an excellent cupcake! Not only were the cupcakes wonderful, but the shop is adorable too. Like walking into a fairy tale. Pure bliss! Seriously, if you ever find yourself in Banff (which is a dreamland in itself) be sure to stop by this place! Its on Bear St. You can't miss it! Great, now I wish I was there…how many more months until December? Oh, and yes…that's actual snow on a bench located outside of the shop.
I've had many cupcakes throughout Los Angeles (these are from the OG Farmer's Market at the Grove) and I always tend to gravitate towards the red velvet.
These are from Bristol Farms in Valencia. Definitely cute to look at! I'm sure you can't find "Go Lakers!" cupcakes all across the country right? Definitely must be an LA thing.
These are also from Bristol Farms in Valencia, and even though I didn't actually try one, I thought they were just the cutest cupcakes ever! So much detail!
Apart from my previously mentioned one time freebie pajama/linen shop sample cupcake and any flavor at Sprinkles, my next favorite shop is Bottega Louie. Although smaller than your typical cupcake, these are full of that red velvet flavor (not just food coloring). Even the frosting is perfection! And I believe these are only $2 each!
The little gold wrapper just adds to the whole vibe of the place. I love these little cupcakes (and all the pastries at Bottega Louie) so much!
Thank you so much for trying my cupcakes! I'm glad you enjoyed them. Just so you know, the name of my company is Kupcake Kitchen (not Kreations :)).
I am building my business and appreciate you mentioning me in your blog. Thank you very much.
Keep watching for our daily flavors. Today it's chocolate chip :).
Check out my Web site to view my specialty creations.
