It's a world of collar, stripes, and knee-high socks. A bit on the sporty edge, it appears that her husband and sons' influence is huge in her design. The collection, as always, is so Posh.
The central theme is never sporty, though. We can see models overflowing the catwalk with smart looking, superfitted dresses, and I mean SUPER. I think only Posh can manage to wear these dresses at her age, add to that being a mother with three kids.
Colours are mostly on the basics: Khaki, deep navy blue, and black. Only few pieces are in red and cobalt blue. Overall, everything looks poised, tastefully done and wearable. The only thing that is a bit off for me is the socks, ribbed, and paired with chunky ankle boots. That's just so not me, even if it's Louboutin.
The horizontal bands are perfectly done, creating contrasts and dissecting the body at various flattering points. The waist belts also add more depth into the body shape illusion, accentuating the slim waist and giving off that final touch to the overall figure.
Shirt-dresses are plenty, with flat, turned down collars and vertical stripe elongated to the middle chest area. This really makes me think of polo, and I generally shy away from wearing one since I think it looks too boyish and plain. Yes, I used to wear polo plus jeans plus sneakers at my school age, but now, never. I really admire how Posh successfully manage to create an interesting mix of shirt-dress and luxury. See the shiny black python collar on one of the shirt-dress, or in the khaki coat's lining. A very cool understated luxury. Subtle, but we know it's there.
"There isn't one thing in the collection I wouldn't wear myself. I want to wear everything!" said Posh excitedly, after the show's done.
Super chic military style coat!
My favourite piece in this collection! But still not into the shoes.
Mrs Beckham is such a polished and refined lady, and her collection truly reflects her personal attire, her identity. It's amazing to be able to find such integrity in the fashion industry nowadays, and that's why I have high hopes for the success of her RTW line in the future. Root for Posh!
On the side note, she just won the Designer Brand Award at the British Fashion Awards last year, in 2011. The fashion world is gradually showing acceptance to her work, so are you?

Sensory evaluation and electronic tongue for sensing flavored mineral water taste attributes.

In this article a trained sensory panel evaluated 6 flavored mineral water samples. The samples consisted of 3 different brands, each with 2 flavors (pear-lemon grass and josta berry). The applied sensory method was profile analysis. Our aim was to analyze the sensory profiles and to investigate the similarities between the sensitivity of the trained human panel and an electronic tongue device. Another objective was to demonstrate the possibilities for the prediction of sensory attributes from electronic tongue measurements using a multivariate statistical method (Partial Least Squares regression [PLS]). The results showed that the products manufactured under different brand name but with the same aromas had very similar sensory profiles. The panel performance evaluation showed that it is appropriate (discrimination ability, repeatability, and panel consensus) to compare the panel's results with the results of the electronic tongue. The samples can be discriminated by the electronic tongue and an accurate classification model can be built. Principal Component Analysis BiPlot diagrams showed that Brand A and B were similar because the manufacturers use the same aroma brands for their products. It can be concluded that Brand C was quite different compared to the other samples independently of the aroma content. Based on the electronic tongue results good prediction models can be obtained with high correlation coefficient (r(2) > 0.81) and low prediction error (RMSEP < 13.71 on the scale of the sensory evaluation from 0 to 100).

Something weird happens to a skeptical science writer during a week of meditation, chanting and skygazing
By John Horgan on August 1, 2018
I've been hard on Buddhism over the years (see for example my critique of the recent bestseller Why Buddhism Is True). But I like to think I'm open-minded. So I recently put my skepticism to the test by going on a weeklong silent Buddhist retreat, which my pro-Buddhism friends Lisa and Bob argued was my moral obligation.
The retreat rocked me. I'm still trying to make sense of it, but I'm going to take a stab at describing it, if only for my own sake. As I told Julie, a teacher who advised me not to write during the retreat, I'm not sure what happens to me until I write about it.
The retreat was organized by the Dzogchen Center, a Buddhist organization based in Cambridge, Mass., and took place at the Garrison Institute, a contemplative center on the Hudson River an hour's drive north of New York City. Coincidentally, I lived in Garrison, the hamlet after which the institute is named, from 1990 until 2009, when my marriage broke up. I taught my son and daughter how to ride bikes on the grounds of the Garrison Institute when it was just an abandoned Catholic monastery, and I swam with my dog, Merlin, in a nearby spot on the Hudson.

Jan Batiste Atkins: African Americans of San Jose and Santa Clara Valley
Professor Jan Batiste Adkins, Adjunct Instructor, San Jose City College, has published a series of Arcadia: Images of America series books on the local histories of African Americans, providing easily-accessible historic details and images for this important Bay Area cultural group.
Atkins' books include:
African Americans of San Jose and Santa Clara County (Dr. Steven Millner, professor of African American studies at San Jose State University, provides the introduction.)
African Americans of San Francisco
African Americans of Monterey County
In her African Americans of San Jose and Santa Clara County Arcadia book, Adkins relates that African Americans settled in the Santa Clara Valley as early as 1777, with a community firmly established here by the 1800's.
Between 1916 and 1970, a period termed "The Great Migration", nearly 6 million African Americans left the rural American South to resettle in Northern cities. This figure increased in 1963 when African Americans left the South in great numbers to escape Jim Crow laws, lynchings and voter repression. Some African Americans settled in San Jose, Santa Clara and Palo Alto, to seek new opportunities, particularly in the new technology industry, during the 1960's and 1970's.
According to Isabel Wilkerson, Smithsonian Magazine: September 2016:
"At that moment in American history, the country had reached a turning point in a fight for racial justice that had been building for decades. This was the year of the killing of Medgar Evers in Mississippi, of the bombing of the 16th Street Baptist Church in Birmingham, of Gov. George Wallace blocking black students at the schoolhouse door of the University of Alabama, the year of the March on Washington, of Martin Luther King Jr.'s "I Have a Dream" speech and his "Letter From a Birmingham Jail." By then, millions of African-Americans had already testified with their bodies to the repression they had endured in the Jim Crow South by defecting to the North and West in what came to be known as the Great Migration. They were fleeing a world where they were restricted to the most menial of jobs, underpaid if paid at all, and frequently barred from voting. Between 1880 and 1950, an African-American was lynched more than once a week for some perceived breach of the racial hierarchy...
...Merely by leaving, African-Americans would get to participate in democracy and, by their presence, force the North to pay attention to the injustices in the South and the increasingly organized fight against those injustices. By leaving, they would change the course of their lives and those of their children. They would become Richard Wright the novelist instead of Richard Wright the sharecropper. They would become John Coltrane, jazz musician instead of tailor; Bill Russell, NBA pioneer instead of paper mill worker; Zora Neale Hurston, beloved folklorist instead of maidservant. The children of the Great Migration would reshape professions that, had their families not left, may never have been open to them, from sports and music to literature and art: Miles Davis, Ralph Ellison, Toni Morrison, August Wilson, Jacob Lawrence, Diana Ross, Tupac Shakur, Prince, Michael Jackson, Shonda Rhimes, Venus and Serena Williams and countless others. The people who migrated would become the forebears of most African-Americans born in the North and West."
https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/long-lasting-legacy-great-migration-180960118/
Author, Jan Batiste Atkins
Adkins relates that many African Americans took jobs in the tech industry in Silicon Valley, as well as Ford Motor Company and public service agencies, "while Dr. Harry Edwards, John Carlos, and Tommy Smith took on civil rights challenges. The complicated history of the black community throughout Santa Clara County has mirrored the nation's slow progress towards social and economic success."
For those interested in African American Genealogy in Santa Clara Valley (and beyond), retired Local History and Genealogy Librarian, Mary Hanel has compiled a PDF list of resource books and tools for the Santa Clara County Historical and Genealogical Society, all of which may be found in the Santa Clara City Library Genealogy area at the Park Branch.
Likewise, the Sourisseau Academy has compiled an excellent history, Some Early African American Settlers in Santa Clara Valley, in PDF form. (Please see my Genealogy and Ethnicity page for more links and information.)
African Americans in Tech
To promote progress, African American women in tech have empowered themselves as tech entrepreneurs via the Tech Talk Association, which holds Black Women Talk Tech, an annual conference with over 500 female African American tech entrepreneurs, which is sponsored by Microsoft, Oracle, Adobe, Oracle, Amazon, Nike and other major Silicon Valley companies.
The annual Black Women Talk Tech conference is designed to showcase and empower more African American women (and girls) to take on tech careers, to achieve tech leadership and to grow new businesses. The organization has chapters in San Francisco and Los Angeles, as well as other major cities across the U.S. (There is a Black Men Talk Tech group and conference as well, sponsored by Morgan Stanley, The Knight Foundation, Shea Moisture, and a few other businesses, however, the men could use more Silicon Valley tech sponsors.)
Where we stand now, in September 2020:
According to the ACLU, voter suppression for African Americans, Native Americans and other groups is still continuing in many states through the use of new voter ID and voter Photo ID laws, through ongoing gerrymandering, through unwarranted purging of registered voter lists, through the elimination of voting sites near African American and Native American communities, through removing the option of voting-by-mail during COVID-19, plus other possibly unethical and unconstitutional efforts to control who may and may not vote in November 2020.
For those reasons and many others, Jan Batiste Atkins' books are important reads here in Silicon Valley, where our political leaders, our media organizations, our tech giants and our major, regional philanthropic organizations, have the clout to study, fund and promote ethical norms across the country, via their Web platforms and news posts.
"I believe the only way to protect my own rights is to protect the rights of others."
--Dwight D. Eisenhower, Remarks at the United Negro College Fund luncheon, May 19, 1953

Russell William "Rusty" Wallace (Saint Louis (Missouri), 14 augustus 1956) is een voormalig Amerikaans autocoureur. Hij won het NASCAR Winston Cup kampioenschap in 1989. Tegenwoordig is hij sportverslaggever bij de Amerikaanse televisiezender ESPN.

Carrière
Wallace werd meteen tweede tijdens zijn NASCAR-debuut in 1980 toen hij in een wagen van Penske Racing enkel Dale Earnhardt voor Wallace kon finishen op de Atlanta Motor Speedway. Wallace reed in 1984 voor de eerste keer een volledig programma en werd dat jaar rookie of the year. De eerste overwinningen kwamen er in 1986 toen hij won op de Bristol Motor Speedway en later dat jaar op de Martinsville Speedway. In 1988 won hij zes races en eindigde met 4464 punten op de tweede plaats in het kampioenschap, met amper 24 punten achterstand op kampioen Bill Elliott.

In 1989 won hij opnieuw zes keer. Hij won races op de Rockingham Speedway, Bristol Motor Speedway, Watkins Glen International, Michigan International Speedway en twee keer op de Richmond International Raceway. Hij won het kampioenschap voor Dale Earnhardt en Mark Martin.

Wallace won in 1993 tien races, maar raakte ook betrokken bij twee zware crashes op de Daytona International Speedway en de Talladega Superspeedway en werd pas tweede in de eindstand achter Dale Earnhardt die zes races had gewonnen. In 1994 won hij acht keer en eindigde hij op de derde plaats in het kampioenschap. Hij bleef aan de slag in de NASCAR tot 2005, zijn laatste overwinning behaalde hij op de Martinsville Speedway in 2004.

Wallace reed over een periode van 25 jaar 706 races in de Winston Cup waarvan hij er 55 won.

Once upon a time (which so many of us assume is in the past, but could very well be the future) in a coffee shop far, far away (so far, in fact, it might be considered to be in Memphis, Tennessee) on a Sunday that was confused about its own self-image, seeing how it had become devalued by being sandwiched in the middle, between the bookends, so to speak, of a three-day weekend commemorating the inconsistent foreign policy of a barely toilet-trained democracy, a young man named Gravity Pushman, who was an anarchist comedian who moonlighted as a itinerant philosopher/busboy/ panhandler/candidate for the U. S. Senate, sat with a girl who met a Crown Victoria coming out of a Circle K parking lot who dreamt of being a mental case and thereby receiving special treatment from people who assume that they are not (crazy, that is). Like most men of mice and plan, it (the situation, that is) was better laid than executed, which might be considered a moral judgment regarding the penal (or penile) system of the above-stated Greek resurrected Frankenstein monster, but since there are no givens in the above equation, one can never tell. We were speaking of executions and putting our words into action by killing time, which Aleister Crowley affirms is the only real measure of our lifespans that we are aware of, and therefore, if you love life you mustn't waste it.

Die Pfarrkirche Kleinzell steht in der Gemeinde Kleinzell im Mühlkreis im oberen Mühlviertel in Oberösterreich. Die römisch-katholische Pfarrkirche hl. Laurentius – dem Stift Sankt Florian inkorporiert – gehört zum Dekanat Altenfelden in der Diözese Linz. Die Kirche steht unter .

Geschichte
Die Kleinzeller Pfarrkirche entstand im 11. Jahrhundert, da noch romanische Bauteile vorhanden sind. Sie wurde um 1450 durch die Hussiten zerstört und 1476 neu gebaut. Es ist ein dreijochiger, um 1760 barockisierter mittelalterlicher Saalbau mit spätbarocker Empore und spätgotischem Chor.

Um 1772 wurde ein Gnadenbild der Landshuter Madonna von Johann Michael Greiter im linken Seitenaltar aufgestellt. Bemerkenswert ist die 1780 gestaltete Rokoko-Kanzel. Einige Statuen stammen von Franz Schmalzl. Die Fresken am Chorbogen stammen von H. Duschek aus 1941.

Helpful basic kitchen supplies for the cook who's just starting out on their own.
One of the more affordable options among the German-style knives tested, Mercer's Genesis chef's knife delivers good bang for the buck. The knife is quite a bit lighter than the Wüsthof Classic and has a grippy rubber-and-plastic handle that's comfortable to hold.
In the inexpensive-thermometer department, the ThermoPop comes in an impressive package. An easy-to-read display rotates at the touch of a button, so you don't have to twist your head to read it. It takes a few seconds longer to read temperatures than its big brother, the Thermapen, but it's every bit as accurate.
A high-speed hand blender is great for whipping up silky soups and purées, making emulsions like mayonnaise and Hollandaise, or smoothing out sauces, all right in the pot. No need to dirty up an extra blender jar!
These shears set the bar for excellent heavy-duty scissors. They're strong enough to cut out a chicken back without hesitation, they're sharp enough to snip chives as cleanly as any pair of shears could ever hope to, and they come with all the accoutrements a good pair of kitchen shears should (even if you never use half these things): bottle opener/lid lifter, flathead screwdriver head, nutcracker, jar opener, bone notcher, and more.
When we're cooking with garlic, we're pulling out the press nine times out of 10, because, even with the slightly fussy cleaning, it's still faster and easier than chopping fresh garlic on a board.
We tested dozens of stovetop pressure cookers before settling on Kuhn Rikon's Duromatic. It has a heavy sandwiched-aluminum-and-steel base that gives you even heat, and a pressure gauge that makes telling exactly how much pressure has built up inside visual and intuitive.
Vicky's four-year-old niece is obsessed with Stella. This wooden stand mixer set is a perfect gift for the young baker. It has eggs that you can actually crack!
Basic stainless steel kitchen spoons are useful to have, but sometimes their long handles get in the way more than they help. That's where professional sauce spoons come into play. This one has a nice large bowl that can scoop up generous dollops of yogurt, a heap of cooked grain, or a serving of sauce, and a short enough handle to make wielding those ingredients easy instead of clumsy.
While the usefulness of a vegetable peeler should be obvious to anyone who's ever cooked, the necessity of a Y-peeler may not be quite as clear. But trust us: They are categorically better than those swivel peelers a lot of people use. And they're cheap!
This is the holy grail of inexpensive chef's knives: incredible quality and design, high-end materials, perfect balance, and a razor-sharp edge.
This cookbook by Julia Turshen, author of Small Victories and Feed the Resistance, is full of simple, delicious meals for everyday eating, parties, and holidays. Better yet, each one includes a bunch of suggestions for how to remake it as leftovers. It's a trove of great, creative ideas, and a must for any bookworm.
Paring knives don't need to cost a lot to do their job—questions of balance and build quality matter less in a knife that fits almost entirely in the palm of your hand. Of all the ones we tested, this inexpensive blade from Wüsthof came out on top, with a razor-sharp edge and comfortable grip. This is our new go-to paring knife, and we already have several of them at work and home.
If you love to cook and host parties, you'll know that a lot of prep time is spent on your feet. Why not make at least the cooking part a bit more comfortable with one of these gel mats? It'll provide some nice cushion under your feet, so when it's time to put on your party shoes, you'll be ready.
Our top pick among stainless steel honing steels for your knives.
Tojiro's santoku knife held its own throughout the testing. It feels a little chunkier in the hand than our top pick, and it cracked one slice of carrot before sailing through a dozen more slices without any problems. It's a well-made knife, offering an excellent money-to-quality ratio.
If you love beautifully seared steaks, golden-brown grilled cheese sandwiches, and crispy-skinned fish and poultry, this is a great thing to have in your kitchen. Chef's presses help you get even contact between ingredients and your skillet. They're vented, so you won't accidentally steam your food, and they're stackable, so you can get a couple for weighing down heftier items.
The Instant Pot Duo60 is a fantastic value and performed almost as well as the top pick among countertop pressure cookers we tested. It's easy to use, the company has a reputation for great customer service, and there's an avid and helpful community of users online to boot.
How much praise can we throw at a Le Creuset Dutch oven? This is one of those things couples put on their wedding registries and desperately hope someone buys for them. This is a pot you hand down to your kids. This is a piece of cookware that you will use for everything, including serving at the table, and then you won't want to put it away because you just like looking at it. This is a workhorse of the kitchen. Yes, it costs a lot. But things that are built to last a lifetime despite daily use usually do.
Souper Cubes is the brainchild of two Serious Eaters, Michelle and Jake, who wanted to develop a better way to portion and freeze soups, stocks, and stews. The food-grade silicone mold features four one-cup cube molds, perfect for meal-prepping and stocking up on winter warmers for the long, cold months ahead.
The Fletchers' Mill Federal grinds consistently and quickly, excels at fine grinding, and comes in 11 finishes to match a wide range of kitchen decors.
This Zyliss salad spinner was far and away the top performer in our tests, due to its space-efficient design, solid construction, and minimal-effort drying mechanism.
This is a great introductory stone for sharpening Japanese knives. The combination of grits gives you everything you need: The coarser side quickly restores an edge, while the fine side smooths and polishes.
Jacques Pépin has more than 20 cookbooks to his name, but this one might be the most universally useful to home cooks. Clear photos and descriptions walk newbies thought holding a knife properly, then using it to slice and dice an onion and debone a chicken. But there are also an endless number of little tricks, like why your salad greens should be bone dry before dressing them, that will up your kitchen IQ.
Fancy olive oil always makes a good gift, but there's a difference between fancy olive oil and good fancy olive oil. The house oil from Frankies 457 Spuntino in Brooklyn is delicious (i.e., great on fresh bread and in dishes), is DOC certified, and comes in a chic tin that prevents light from spoiling the product.
Microplanes do fine grating work way better than those tiny, raspy holes on a box grater. Whether you're quickly grating fresh nutmeg or cinnamon, taking the zest off a lemon, or turning a clove of garlic into a fine purée, the Microplane is the tool to reach for.
For those who just don't want to spend much, or who want a "beater" knife—one that they can abuse without feeling guilty—this option from Mercer is hard to, um, beat. It's not the best knife by any measure—its balance feels off, and its thick handle can make a chef's grip awkward for smaller hands—but it has an impressively sharp edge and a price that's just about as low as it gets.
Not all food storage containers are built the same. OXO's Pop Containers stack neatly in the cabinet, make it easy to see exactly what's inside, and have a neat push-button top that forms a perfectly airtight seal, keeping your dry pantry goods fresher for longer.
A New York Times best-seller! The Food Lab: Better Home Cooking Through Science, by J. Kenji López-Alt, is his column by the same name on this very website, blown up to 900-plus pages (and seven-plus pounds) of concentrated culinary science. Gorgeous color photos, detailed how-tos, and elaborate explainers cover ingredients, technique, gear, and the secrets of the universe underneath it all. May include puns.
A good carbon steel pan has many of the qualities that make cast iron great—it's durable, it forms a completely nonstick surface if cared for properly, and it's inexpensive. But it's lighter and easier to maneuver, making it great for sautéing and searing everyday foods.
The five-piece Norpro Grip Ez Stainless Steel Measuring Cups took the top spot in our tests for accuracy, and it wasn't even close. Not only that, the bowls are securely joined to the comfortable nonslip handles, and manufactured to tight tolerances, which helps with level sweeping. The unique oval cup shape comes to a narrow end, acting like a shovel to dig into compacted ingredients, like brown sugar.
There's form, and then there's function. The aprons from Tilit are great on both fronts. Made from waxed cotton, they offer breathability along with water resistance, but they're also damned handsome.
A good wooden spoon is a must for any kitchen. This one, from Le Creuset, is top notch. It's gorgeous to look at; it has a flat front, which makes it great for scraping up fond or stirring vegetables; and it's got a smooth, ergonomic grip that makes using it a joy.
This knife is a good choice for kids who are transitioning into using grown-up blades. It has a plastic loop to keep the index finger safely away from the edge, and a guard for the other hand, allowing the child to practice the claw with less risk if they make a mistake.
While we don't believe that a roasting pan is generally the best tool for large roasts—a wire rack set in a sheet pan often works better—there are times when a roasting pan with a rack is ideal. Cuisinart offers one of the best values in roasting pans on the market, and it can handle any job just as well as its more expensive competitors.
Even lighter in weight than its more expensive sibling, the UX10, the Misono 440 offers an incredibly agile experience, with an especially sharp out-of-the-box blade. It handled all our testing tasks with ease. The price variance between this one and the UX10 mostly comes down to the steel used, a difference most home cooks won't likely notice, making this one a good intermediate choice.
A pressure cooker is a cooking vessel that just keeps on giving: Once you discover the time-saving feats it's capable of, you'll never look back. A countertop electric model gives you set-it-and-forget-it convenience. Breville's Fast Slow Pro Cooker gives you complete control over your pressure cooking but also works as a slow cooker and a rice cooker.
Magnetic knife strips are not only space-saving but they also look pretty badass hanging on your wall. They'll keep your knives from rubbing up against other utensils, which can make them dull (and can be dangerous, too).
Old cast iron has a perfectly smooth nonstick surface that's surprisingly easy to maintain. You can sear, bake, roast, braise, stew, and deep-fry in it, and there's nothing more thoughtful than a gift that you have to expend a bit of effort to find (check out eBay, yard sales, and flea markets). These modern Lodge pans will do in a pinch if vintage isn't in the cards.
When fall and winter roll around, we start thinking about rich, comforting casseroles, which means that these stoneware baking dishes get pulled out, filled, and popped into the oven at least once a week. They're great-looking on the table and provide gentle, even cooking all around for really nice, crisp edges on your lasagna.
If you eat a lot of rice, or if you want to eat a lot of rice, you should absolutely invest in a rice cooker. There are many options on the market—and you can, of course, use a multi-cooker, like an Instant Pot, or a simple pot and lid—but the reason Japanese households invariably have rice cookers is that they produce consistently great results, with very little effort. Zojirushi is the gold standard among rice cooker manufacturers, and this five-and-a-half-cup model is perfect for almost any family. Because the heating element in the cooker surrounds the rice receptacle, the Zojirushi will produce perfectly cooked rice when used correctly, with no scorching and no mushy pockets of waterlogged grains. Finally, it also plays a very sweet and not at all annoying melody when you start cooking and when your rice is ready.
The four-piece Amco Advanced Performance Measuring Spoons are accurate and easy to work with. The handles have little stands on them that help keep the bowls nearly level for accurate filling when the spoon is on the countertop, and the wide, shallow design makes it easy to clean out sticky ingredients, like honey, with a small spatula.
We were impressed by all the Mac knives in our testing, across their range of price points, but this one came out on top thanks to its combination of price and performance. While not inexpensive, it was one of the more affordable Japanese-made knives we tested. This blade is comfortable in the hand and has hollow-ground dimples to help reduce friction when cutting.
More and more children are interested in cooking, and that means they'll eventually need to learn to wield a real, grown-up-style knife. The decision on when to put a safety-feature-free blade in their hand is best left to the parents, but when that day does come, this short chef's knife is a good size for young hands.
When we tested bread knives earlier this year, we were absolutely blown away by the cutting quality of Tojiro's bread knife. It surpassed every other serrated knife, cutting beautifully clean slices of even the most tender bread, and making quick, neat work of ripe tomatoes. It's a must-have for any kitchen.
The slope-sided skillet, like this one from All-Clad, is a chef's best friend and one of the most versatile pans in the kitchen, whether you're sautéing vegetables, searing meat, or cooking one of our dozens of one-pan meals. The best have solid stainless steel construction, with an aluminum core for even heat distribution.
For great performance at a low cost, Mercer is killing it these days, and its santoku knife is no slouch on either front. One of the most affordable knives we tested, Mercer's blade outperformed many knives that cost more than twice as much. For the price, you might as well grab one—it's the perfect knife for guests who want to be helpful in the kitchen, but whom you don't trust with pricier blades.
The Cuisinart is an easy-to-use, powerful blender that aced many of our tests. This model's dashboard is intuitive, and it features a built-in timer that counts down for you or can be programed to stop after a certain amount of seconds.
Bamboo steamers are particularly useful when you're steaming largish things—say, a small whole fish, like a porgy or small sea bass. They're also super easy to clean.
There are so many classics cookbooks out there but for a beginner James Peterson's Essentials of Cooking is comprehensive without being overwhelming. Color step-by-step photos walk you through basics like roasting a chicken, prepping vegetables, making sauces to next level techniques like butchering a fish.
If the concept of receiving cooking-themed mystery boxes piques your interest, then CrateChef may be right up your alley. The subscription service partners with a different chef every two months to deliver a curated selection of tools, gadgets, and ingredients right to your kitchen. And this month, we're excited to announce that their newest partner is...us! Order your box to find a great selection of gift-worthy picks from the Serious Eats culinary team, chosen with holiday entertaining in mind.
Proper seasoning is one of the most important parts of cooking, and if you're still using plain table salt from (heaven forbid!) a saltshaker, you're shooting yourself in the food. Using kosher salt from a salt cellar lets you feel exactly how much salt is getting into your food, whether it's a tiny pinch or a big ol' wallop.
Cooking with fresh herbs makes every recipe better. Cooking with fresh herbs that you grew all by yourself makes life better. The AeroGarden takes the guesswork out of growing herbs inside, with an automated light to keep your parsley and thyme thriving and weekly reminders for water and nutrients. Just prepare yourself for epic amounts of basil.
To store tools like spatulas and whisks, a good old crock will do the trick. We like this ceramic one, which looks extra pretty on the counter. Keep it right next to your stove so your most-used tools will be at an arm's length whenever you need them.
Woks are the best tool for stir-frying if you want to get that distinctly smoky wok hei flavor, but they're also versatile vessels that you can use for braising, deep-frying, or even indoor smoking.
Basic stainless steel kitchen spoons are useful to have, but sometimes their long handles get in the way more than they help. That's where professional sauce spoons come into play. This perforated one has a nice large bowl that can scoop up generous mounds of beans, vegetables, and pieces of meat from their cooking liquid or sauce, and a short enough handle to make wielding those ingredients easy instead of clumsy.
This cast iron workhorse spans two burners, making it perfect for high-volume indoor grilling projects (did anyone order skewered shrimp?) on one side, and griddled classics like pancakes and smashed burgers on the other.
The Breville Smart Oven performs consistently and is very intuitive to use. It scored high marks in each round of testing, producing one of the better pieces of toast, baking frozen pizza to yield melted cheese on top and crispy crust below, cooking a frozen chicken pot pie, and baking perfect cookies. The styling is handsome, and the bright LCD screen is easy to navigate with just a few dials and buttons.


Donald Whitney describes a simple way to learn to pray through the Bible. It's not the only way to pray, but it can lead to more and longer prayer than simply "running through the list" in the normal way. There is a link to the book at the bottom, but the video series pretty much covers the same territory. Don has 5 short videos to walk through over 5 days. Give it a try and see what you think.

Q: Unable to get array value using a for loop I add values into the array like this:
ansArray = {question:id[count], answer: 'a'};

and the console displays the result like this:
(
    {
        answer = a;
        question=1;
    },
    {
        answer =d;
        question=2;
    }
    //......

    //.......
)

I used a for loop like this:
for (i=0;i<20;i++){
    alert(ansArray[i].answer); //This comes with undefined error
    alert(ansArray[i].question); //undefined
}

this comes up with undefined error;
but if i don't use the 'i' variable and use a number instead, the info shows correct value:
 alert(ansArray[0].answer); //shows correct value
 alert(ansArray[1].question); //shows correct value

why doesn't the for loop shows a error?  What am I missing here?
thanks for your help.

A: Your first problem is that your ansArray variable is not an array, but an object. You are declaring it like the following:
ansArray = {question:id[count], answer: 'a'};

This is creating an object with a question field, and an answer field. You can declare objects like this:
someObject = {};

And you can declare arrays like this:
someArray = [];

So, you probably mean to have something like this:
ansArray = [{question:0, answer:'a'}];

This would give you an array containing a single object. I'm guessing you want something like this:
var ansArray = [];
ansArray[0] = {question:0, answer:'a'};
ansArray[1] = {question:1, answer:'d'};
...
ansArray[19] = {question:19, answer:'b'};

You would be able to loop over this with your original loop code. It would also be helpful to use the javascript tag.

We bought our little Rat Terrier Mix when he was 2 months old, from the Humane Society.
Even at this very young age he growled a deep growl at me when I hugged him one evening, but after this, his aggression is toward visitors to our home, and not just barking but a deep, threatening bark.
Recently we had relatives at our home for a week, and each morning when they came out of their room, the aggression was as if he had never seen them before. He lunges with a fierce snarl, and he was only 6 months old at the time.
We have regular visitors each day, and the constant barking and aggression is wearing thin.
What can we do to help our puppy become more social, when people are already at our house on a daily basis?
Thank you for your response. One of our hardest situations with our little guy, we have a few people coming and going throughout our days, each with a different approach, and if I'm not here to intervene, it's like taking one step forward, three steps back.
We have him in a puppy class, learning the basics, working now on following my commands, but I see this as more of needing to be socialized?

You're better off farming 20 dreamleaf manually.
For every herb you need to clear at least 3-4 mobs around it.
So for people who are as confused as I was, what you are looking for is herb nodes called Lively Drealmleaf. In my ~20 min it took to get 10 of them, I was not able to loot it from any mob, including herbing their corpses, which leads me to believe they are from the node only.
For completion of this quest, you get 30 dreamleaf. This quest is in no way worth the effort or time since collecting dreamleaf can be done faster, do another world quest.
To add to the annoyance of this quest, each node has 2-5 mobs that will aggro you upon trying to get to it. As a Blood DK, this isnt too bad, but I can see it meaning death for other classes.
Finally, I couldnt confirm whether this was bad instancing or if other players are able to loot the same nodes you are, but often times the nodes I was trying to get to would disappear and I would be unable to collect. This is compounded by the fact that with CRZ and on my already populated server (Proudmoore) there was easily ~20 herbalists trying to do this quest at the same time.
TLDR: skip this quest. collect drealmleaf in open world. it will save you time.


in the thinking and beliefs of some of the the "mainline" diet gurus.
I plan to make reviewing various diets a normal part of DietHobby.
However, my typing abiliities are limited at present due to my broken wrist.
My personal position is that EVERY diet works for someone, and just because it might not fit into my lifestyle, or be right for me personally, doesn't mean it won't work for others.
I recently watched these video reviews and found them interesting and entertaining.Although they express a viewpoint FAR MORE NEGATIVE than my own, I decided to include them here at DietHobby.

Thanks, Kimber *** Yes, I'll look forward to hearing from you.
Right or wrong -- the reason I use many non-fat products is to hold down my calories. I only get so many calories a day and 9 calories to a gram of fat compared to 4 calories to a gram of protein or fiber becomes a "no brainer" in making my food choices. My fat goal is 35 grams a day. I have been told that this is okay ... but now I doubt that I get enough mono and poly unsaturated fats. I do take a fish oil supplement... maybe this helps.
jhwalk, We all do what works for each of us. I frequently use non-fat products to keep my calories down as well. However, sometimes I feel that full fat choices are worth the trade-off. Personally, I take issue with much of the "HEALTHY" hype that is so pervasive now, and plan to write some future blogs about that.

Bill McKibben, pioneer of the fight against climate change, broadens his warning

Bill McKibben, American environmentalist, author and founder of 350.org, was one of the first to offer an early warning about climate change 30 years ago. In this interview we deal with the different dynamics at play around climate change and the fight towards a safe and sustainable future.
Thirty years ago, Bill McKibben alerted us to the threat of climate change. In 1989 he published his groundbreaking book, The End of Nature, which was considered the first book on climate change for the general audience. Today, he broadens his warning. Humans have now emerged as a "destructive geological force", he writes in his most recent book Falter. The degradation of the planet's physical systems, that was still theoretical when The End of Nature came out, is now underway.

So the question comes naturally. How did we get here?
"Well, human beings have always been small compared to the big forces of the natural world around them," McKibben explains in our interview. "That's sort of part of what it's meant to be human. But some time in the last century that began to change. Humans began to get big very quickly, first with the power to explode nuclear weapons. It was Oppenheimer, watching the first explosion that said, quoting from the Bhagavad-Gita (Hindu scripture), "Now I am become death, the destroyer of worlds". Humans are now, through climate change, reshaping every inch of the Planet. We're melting the greatest ice sheets. We're changing the chemistry of seawater. We're altering the way that the planet's hydrological cycle works. We're shortening seasons, like winter, and lengthening the fire season. We're raising the level of the ocean. You name it. We're now behind it".
Read more: We have until 2030 to avoid a climate catastrophe
Shrinkage: a time of contraction
To use the metaphor McKibben describes in his book, the human game has begun to play itself out and, of course, the size of the board on which we're playing the game is getting considerably smaller. For centuries, humans have spread out, conquering new lands, discovering new territories and often, to do so, they destroyed what was already there when they arrived. Just think about the building of the "New World" and the annihilation of native inhabitants of those lands, when Europeans hit North America on their sailing route to what they thought was going to be Asia. But now, it seems like space is running out. Humans are causing and witnessing a contraction.

As a consequence of climate change, are we actually shrinking the geographical areas where we, as humans, can live in?
"That's right. We're used to the idea that humans keep expanding into more and more territory. And for most of human history, that has been what we've done," McKibben says. "Now, clearly the opposite is starting to happen. The sea is rising and our coastal cities are becoming harder to defend. Deserts are spreading and it's getting so darn hot in many places that it's pretty clear humans will have to move away from them. Where they'll move is another question. That's why people who worry about war and peace, worry so much about climate change. The UN estimated we could see a billion climate refugees this century. It's just hard to fathom what's going to happen".

Worsening inequality
The worsening impacts of climate change in densely populated regions of the world could see over 140 million people displaced by 2050, "creating a looming human crisis and threatening the development process", a 2018 World Bank report found. These climate refugees would be additional to the millions of people already moving within their countries for economic, social and political reasons, the report warns. It is impossible, in this sense, to look at climate change without taking into account the element of inequality. Inequality will only become exacerbated. "If you looked at the planet right now, the two things that are spiking are the temperature and the levels of inequality, they're the two most remarkable statistical anomalies of our time and they are very related," says McKibben. "Climate change is incredibly unjust. The iron law of climate change is: the less you did to cause it, the sooner and harder you get hit".

Climate change isn't only about physics
In Falter, McKibben writes that "climate change is a negotiation between human beings and physics and physics doesn't compromise. Past a certain point, there is no more room for maneuver". But climate change isn't only about physics. Extreme weather, worsened by climate change, along with the health impacts of burning fossil fuels, has cost the US economy at least 240 billion dollars a year over the past ten years, according to a 2017 report. On the one hand, the cost of climate change for the world is of 1.2 trillion dollars annually, wiping about 1.6 percent of the planet's GDP each year. On the other hand, the scientific facts of climate change are clear, even the fossil fuel industry has trouble denying those.
So what is the fight really about?
"I think after I worked at The End of Nature, I was convinced that we were in an argument about climate change and we needed more books and papers. At a certain point, it became clear to me that we've long since won the argument, because scientists were in robust consensus about what was going on," explains McKibben. "We'd won the argument. We were just losing the fight because the fight, as you point out, was really about money and the other side in that fight, the fossil fuel industry, had endless amounts of both. So the work of the last ten years has been to building movement that tries to build some countervailing power there and obviously it can't come from money. We'll never outspend Exxon. So it has to come from the other currencies that human beings can work in: passion, spirit, creativity, and sometimes the willingness to spend your body and go to jail."

350.org and its battles
The call to action is powerful and urgent. To save the planet and humanity, we have to invest in peaceful mobilisation, in shaping a nonviolent movement. McKibben draws on his experience of founding 350.org, an international environmental organization born in 2008 addressing the climate crisis. Its goal is to end the use of fossil fuels and transition to renewable energy by building a global, grassroots movement. 350 was named after 350 parts per million — the safe concentration of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere. Although 350.org hasn't beaten the fossil fuel industry yet, it has organised demonstrations in every country in the world except North Korea, and it has won many battles.

"The divestment movement that we started six years ago has now passed 11 trillion dollars in endowments and portfolios that are divesting from fossil fuels. Shell and its annual report this year said we had become a material risk to its business. Standing up against fossil fuels began with the Keystone pipeline, and it has turned into a massive movement around the world that fights every kind of new coal miner. We're going to win this fight. The question is, are we going to win it in time?" McKibben asks. "Climate change is a timed test. And I have to say, I think at the moment we're definitely not winning in time. Our trajectory is still impossible. We're going to break the Planet before we can rescue it. And that's why things seem so urgent. But the last month has offered a certain kind of hope, the sight of millions and millions of people, young and old, out on climate strike, is the latest indication that these movements we've been building for a decade are really cresting now."

Collective mobilisation versus individual actions
It seems like the only way to fight against climate change and the strong economic and political forces leading the game behind it is to prioritise collective mobilisation. There's been a lot of talk in the past years about what a person as an individual can do in their everyday life to commit to the fight against climate change.
To what degree are individual actions important compared to maintaining a collective mobilization on this issue?
"I think individual actions are really important and I hope that everybody's doing what they can," urges McKibben. "I give hundreds of speeches now via Skype to avoid unnecessary air travel, my house is covered with solar panels, which I'm proud of, but I don't try to fool myself that that's how we're going to make this all work in the end. We're late enough in this game that you can't make the math work one Prius at a time. The most important thing an individual can do is be a little less of an individual and join together with others in building the movements that allow us to really challenge the economic and political status quo".

What will the next steps be? 350.org's plan seems to entail an ambitious mission: taking on those banks and financial institutions that are funding the fossil fuel industry and pushing for a Green New Deal in the United States with similar steps around the world.
What will the future look like? Will the movement survive?
"I think it will keep moving forward. It'll keep growing because I think Mother Nature's going to just keep reminding us of what kind of trouble we're in".

President Donald Trump is slated to deliver his first State of the Union speech on January 30.
While 45 addressed Congress last year, it was not technically a SOTU address.
Massachusetts Rep. Joe Kennedy will deliver the official Democrat response, but California Congresswoman Maxine Waters will also give the third rebuttal.
It will air on Black Entertainment Television.
A spokesperson for BET told BuzzFeed that activists and other elected officials will join Waters to discuss the first year of the Trump presidency following his speech, and will discuss "building black politics and the value of engagement across today's socio-political landscape.
Waters, who is one of several Democratic lawmakers who have said they will not attend Trump's speech on Tuesday, has consistently criticized Trump throughout his presidency, repeatedly calling for his impeachment.
While Waters will be delivering an address Tuesday night after Trump's speech, Democratic rising star Rep. Joe Kennedy (D-Mass.) is set to give the party's official response to the State of the Union, party officials announced this week. That speech is also televised.
Maxine recently got a brutal dose of karma she probably never saw coming.
HA! Californians want Waters gone.
They've finally come to realize that pandering and bloviating does nothing, especially when the Golden State has turned from a paradise into a liberal cesspool.
Listen to the people, Maxine. Move on!

COVID-19, unplanned pregnancies, and how the Church can respond
By Lyndsey KohJune 2, 2020
USA (MNN) — With everybody at home during COVID-19 lockdowns, you may have heard jokes about an upcoming baby boom in eight to ten months. But don't count on it.
New studies show over one-third of couples who were planning on conceiving have now paused their plans. Their concerns are mostly related to economic stability and the effect COVID-19 could have on a pregnancy.
If pregnancies do happen during this time, a greater number of them may be unplanned.
(Photo courtesy of Viviana Rishe via Unsplash)
Life Matters Worldwide's president Eric Verstraete says, "An unplanned pregnancy is already something that brings a lot of stress along with it for someone who wasn't planning on that circumstance…. So to compound that stress with being within a pandemic, I think fear is going to be something that, as we've seen across the country, is already gripping people."
These women and couples facing unplanned pregnancies may have limited resources, less support from family and friends who are also shut-in, and even feel greater pressure to abort.
Thankfully, pro-life advocates are stepping up in the name of Jesus.
"My colleagues in the pregnancy care center world, they've been doing an amazing job. In fact, a lot of them have found really unique and creative ways to continue to work with the clients that are coming to them. Some of them who are families who need diapers, they've set up emergency diaper drives at their centers and they do it by appointment. Obviously, some of them are still able to do ultrasounds and things of that nature."
A pandemic is scary. A pandemic when you're pregnant is frightening. A pandemic when you're pregnant, it was a surprise, and you have less support or ability to care for another child? Terrifying.
As believers passionate about life, we are uniquely positioned to minister Christ's love to women and couples facing unplanned pregnancies at this time.
(Photo courtesy of Camylla Battani via Unsplash)
Verstraete says before we do that, the Church needs to change its approach. "Unfortunately, right now within the Church at-large, there's a lot of shame that comes along with an unplanned pregnancy. I think because it's such a visual reminder of the act that happened, that's where the shame comes because people can see it."
"We believe at Life Matters [that] life starts at conception, but that God is the opener and closer of wombs…. When we don't celebrate life within the Church, even though it comes out of a difficult situation, it's tragic because that life has value. I think the Church needs to shift its focus from focusing on, 'Well, it was the act that caused it.' Okay, well, there was a consequence from an act, but God is the opener and closer of the womb and we need to celebrate the life."
If you are wondering how to support those facing unplanned pregnancies right now, Life Matters just launched a new church engagement model to help connect believers and churches with life-honoring ministries. These include pregnancy care centers, maternity homes, and sidewalk counseling ministries.
These life-honoring ministries need the Church to link arms with them in tangible ways so they can continue having a meaningful impact during and long after the pandemic.

Of the church engagement model, Verstraete says, "There are five aspects. How are you praying for that ministry? How are you telling others about the ministry? How are you learning about that ministry? How are you serving alongside? And how are you giving financially?
"Right now, it's difficult maybe to serve alongside because of stay-at-home orders or whatever state you happen to live in. But every single believer can pray and that's the first place that we're starting with."

Then, here are a few prayer points:
Pray for women and couples facing unplanned pregnancies to feel loved and supported by the Body of Christ.
Pray for pro-life advocates on the frontlines to be encouraged as they connect clients with resources.
Pray for these couples to choose life for their babies.
Pray for the Gospel to spread through life-honoring conversations.
Verstraete encourages, "Let's recognize that we are put in a place for such a time as this. We have the ability within the Church to be an amazing asset to folks who are going through some really hard times — specifically talking about unplanned pregnancy. Let's live within that power so that we can be a powerful example to folks who are going through these really hard times."

Flowcast is Powering Smarter Credit Decisions with AI
The startup's enterprise tech algorithms draw data from non-traditional sources to open up credit to the underserved.
04.11.2019 | by Reve Fisher
Photo by Pepi Stojanovski on Unsplash
FinTech startup Flowcast wants to make credit available to small and medium enterprises (SMEs) with artificial intelligence.
Founded in 2015, Flowcast uses machine learning to generate predictive models that help lenders automatically assess risk and open up credit to businesses of all sizes—particularly the often-overlooked SMEs. The algorithms also use non-traditional sources to detect risk, such as large volume of transaction data and industry-specific datapoints.
"We started Flowcast with the mission to help the underserved market gain access to capital," the company explained on its website. "We had the thesis that AI/machine learning can harness the trove of data trapped in databases of traders, banks, logistics companies and others that could – in combination with alternative data sources – be algorithmically predictive in guiding risk management to unlock SME finance."
Unlike traditional risk assessments, the company's patent-pending programme updates and monitors the risk assessment of the borrower in real-time. It also helps financial institutions to interpret complex data, insights and information into action without having to write any code.
"We aim to empower Global 500 corporations, financial institutions, and insurance providers around the world to transform the way credit assessment is done."
In addition to its "Smartcredit" programme, Flowcast also offers a "Smartclaims" system to automate the deduction claims process. The programme's algorithms can find patterns in customer behavior that can accurately predicting the outcome of any given dispute claim.
Based in San Francisco, California, and Singapore, the startup has raised $3 million in Series A funding in a round led by ING Ventures and BitRock Capital, with participation from Katalyst Ventures and Alpana Ventures. Flowcast is also collaborating with ING for credit decisioning.
"We are impressed by Flowcast's deep expertise in applying AI to harness large supply chain and banking databases, and develop insights to improve efficiency and accuracy of credit decisioning," Alfred Shang, managing partner at BitRock, said in a statement. "We believe many corporates and financial institutions will benefit from Flowcast's solutions."

Abstract Background: Hemoroid is a common disease. When it reaches to degree 2, 3 or 4 it should be suitably treated. Urinary retention is one of the complication of hemoroidectomy surgery. Objective: To compare the rate of post-hemoroidectomy urinary retention after open surgery versus rubber band ligation. Methods: Through a systematic random sampling study patients suffering from hemoroid degree 2 and 3 were divided into 2 groups of 40 (October 1999 to March 2000). The groups were treated using open surgery & rubber band ligation. Using x² & fisher tests, the data was analyzed to compare different rates of urinary retention. Findings: A total number of 12 and 3 patients suffered from urinary retention in open surgery & rubber band groups respectively. The difference was statistically considerable (P=0.0214). Conclusion: Generally speaking, rubber band ligation had less complication in comparison with open surgery.

Q: Elasticsearch cluster health: yellow (131 of 262) unassigned shards I'm very new to Elasticsearch and try to use it for analyze of data from Suricata IPS. Head plugin shows me this: yellow (131 of 262) unassigned shards
also getting this:

I don't know if these problems connected to each other... Could please anyone help me to get it work. Thank you very much!

A: A cluster with only one node and indices that have one replica will always be yellow.
yellow is not a bad thing, the cluster works perfectly fine. The downside is it doesn't have the copies of the shards active.
You can have a green cluster if youbset the number of replicas to 0 or you add a second node to the cluster.
But, as I said, there is no problem if you have a yellow cluster.
Setting number of replicas to 0, cluster wide (all indices):
curl -XPUT "http://localhost:9200/_settings" -d'
{
  "number_of_replicas" : 0
}'

The "plus-size" models became a real sensation in the modern world of fashion. The majority of famous designers pay great attention to the clothes of large size in their collections, and the oversized girls have become an integral part of fashion shows. Ad campaigns speak about girls with such gorgeous figure only with admiration and praise their attractiveness. Instagram accounts are full of "plus size" hashtags. Many channels of famous beauty bloggers are devoted to the advantages and disadvantages of the oversize beauty. To sum it up, this trend has completely changed the idea of the fashion world and beauty stereotypes. The term "plus-size" is still a very popular request which causes constant interest for many people. There are a lot of different opinions about "genetically gifted" people but the viewpoints of such models are especially interesting. Here you will find comments of the most known models of this category in the modern world of the fashion business.

Q: Relationship with many to many I am trying to get a basic rails application running that helps capture the nutritional information of each food item from a list of food items. The nutritional information is stored per ingredient and calculated as the sum of individual ingredients.
Here is what I have so far:
Have two models Food and Ingredient. Each Food has many Ingredients and each Ingredient is used in many Food. The way I want to fix this is to break up the many-to-many with a table in between say Recipe which has the pk of Food and pk Ingredient. But my problem is that a Recipe can have many ingredients and an ingredient has many recipes. How do i split these two tables the best way so I can capture a food item and its list of ingredients? Or is there a better way to do the whole thing?
Say for the purposes of example Food has name, description and Ingredient has name, calories, nutrients.

A: You need has_many_through association.
You will organize like:
class Food < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :recipes
  has_many :ingredients,
    through: :recipes
end

class Ingredient < ActiveRecord::Base
  has_many :recipes
  has_many :foods,
    through: :recipes
end

class Recipe < ActiveRecord::Base
  belongs_to :food
  belongs_to :ingredient
end

This way, you can store additional info inside Recipe

On top of that my mum recently had an op to remove a small bit of bowel cancer… (She should be fine!) and this sounds like nothing in comparison… But we had to put our oldest cat down as she had started to suffer from dementia… Sad and stressful!
Of course I have so much to be thankful for… I have my health, my home, a new job and of course my man and my boy 🙂 The best bits of this year have been watching W transition from a baby to a toddler… Taking his first steps, saying his first words. So many lovely memories of sunny days out and about… And holidays to Menorca, Bluestone and much-needed girly time in Lisbon.
On to the blog, well with going back to work I've blogged less and been less active with other bloggers. However, my traffic has doubled this year as blogs I wrote last year do so well on Google… So it's an effortless hobby really! As my traffic's grown I've had more brands getting in touch and more invites to events but I've still not managed to attend one yet… Let's hope I find the time next year!
4 – REVIEW: Clarins mum to be treatment. A blogging highlight had to be that even a friend of mine stumbled upon this post when she was looking for reviews!
3 – Bepanthen offer in Boots – so many people search for Bepanthen toys… They really should start selling them!
As you can see, really all of these are reviews of products/services that I've paid for myself. It still baffles me that more bloggers don't do the same and blog reviews of their favourite products, rather than just things sent to them by companies… Which are often unlikely to be searched for by anyone!
As 4 out of the top 5 were written in 2014, maybe I should think of retiring…. But I still have a few more things to blog about… So watch this space!
