How Do I Choose the Rate That Applies to Me?

The currency exchange rates here and in other sites is based on "interbank exchange rates". These rates are based on trading in a global network of more than 1,000 banks, and are not available through consumer or retail channels.

Consumers may use these rates as a reference only. To obtain actual retail rates, contact your local financial institution or currency exchange.

Retail spreads (the difference between the bid and ask prices) for smaller amounts are not reflected in these interbank prices since they vary among payment systems, countries and banks.

For these retail rates use this formula:

Value you will pay = value you get in this converter + X% (due to the margin for the cost of the exchange services).
The value X% varies from 1 to 10% or even more and depends on many factors. Examples:
1 - ATMs typically add 2 percent;
2 - Credit cards typically add 2 to 3 percent;
3 - Banks and foreign exchange kiosks add around 5%;
4 - Some Internet based foreign currency exchange agencies add 11 percent or even more.

How and where to exchange currency?

When it comes to exchange rates, you should know all your options. The practice can vary from country to country. In one country, you may have to change your money at the airport, and in other countries you may need to buy your foreign currency in advance. All options have its pros and cons. Perhaps the easiest way is to visit your bank – almost all banks can convert your home currency to dollars, Euros, Pounds and other major currencies. Anything outside these most popular currencies, you should visit a larger CBD branch for this. You could also use services like American Express or Travelex.

    Phase 1: Complete

    Post by Kyoto Vyner on Fri Mar 18, 2016 10:22 am

    Phase 1 of the Magic System has been completed, which was to complete a bare boned system to expand off of, but also allow for the members to participate in Death-Enabled topics.

    If you noticed in the equipment guidelines that you are able to improve the level of your gear starting with Bronze and maximizing at Gold. This will also be implemented for spells and various other things, but with a different name. Meaning at each rank you will have different levels (Untrained (Everyone starts here), Basic, Enhanced, and Advanced) So an Advanced D-Rank spell, would be more powerful than someone that is Untrained, Basic, or Enhanced. Upon improving your level it will gain higher range, damage, healing, etc. - This will also allow for those to compete with higher ranks more easily. A D-Rank Advanced Mage could possibly be on par with a Untrained B-Rank mage.

    Everything is still a work in progress, so please be patient. Repeatedly sending PM's to me or having other people tell me will not push me towards your idea. As said all ideas are considered and everything that is being done is at the Owners approval.

    If you do see something off that doesn't make sense with the system or was left in or missed please notify me in a PM and I will look at it.

    Thank you,
    Kyoto Dev, Head Developer

I hope that my journey will inspire you to want to get into shape as well as becoming a healthier and better you!!!!

Okay so here are my stats:

Start Date: May 26, 2010
Beginning weight: 170
Goal Weight: 120
Height: 5'3

So I want to lose 50lbs. which 120 - 130 is actually my weight class for my height.

About FICare

see more videos »

Family Integrated Care

In the NICU, infants are physically separated from their parents and this often has an impact on the physical, psychological, emotional health of both the parents and the infants. Family Centered Care is an approach to planning and delivery of health care that encourages greater parent involvement in their infants care. However, parents generally remain relegated to a supportive role in the NICU, and the majority of care for the infant is provided by NICU professionals.

The Family Integrated Care (FICare) model is an extension of the principles of Family Centered Care. It is an actionable model by which parents are true partners in their infant’s care, even when in the NICU. This model was developed by a healthcare team that included parents who had previously been in the NICU (veteran parents). Integrating parents into the care team in Family Integrated Care goes well beyond merely allowing parents to be present and observe their infant’s care.

The goal of FICare is to facilitate a partnership and collaboration between parents and the NICU staff, to promote parent-infant interactions, and to build parent confidence. This is achieved by promoting information sharing between staff and parents and by parent participation in their infants care. Under the FICare model, parents are taught to be involved in all possible aspects of their infant’s care (e.g., feeding, diaper changes, bathing, providing oral medications), tracking growth and progress, decision-making, and taking part in medical rounds. Parental involvement in rounds supports parents in their partnership with the care team, helps them understand and participate in care decisions, and helps to strengthen relationships with the medical team. Parents are provided with support and education to provide care for their infant and grow into their roles as care providers for their infants.

We designed the four pillars of FICare to support this model. Not all units will have all the resources to fulfill all aspects of the pillar but it is important to build on this framework. Although we focused on implementation in the NICU environment, this model can potentially be applied to other health care settings. The successful implementation of FICare is dependent on the multidisciplinary team working with the parents to provide the best possible care for infants in the NICU.

Parents are integrated into all aspects of care

The overarching goal of FICare is to support parents in becoming members of the NICU team in providing active care for their infant. To achieve this:

  • Parents are invited to become collaborators in their infant’s care
  • The family are supported to participate to the best of their abilities
  • Multidisciplinary teams enable families to be integrated into their infants care
  • Parents participating in rounds facilitates information sharing
  • Parents are provided education and peer-to-peer support

The Nurse/Parent Relationship

see more videos »

Preliminary research suggests that infants admitted to the NICU and cared for under the FICare model grow faster and have less stress, spend fewer days in the NICU, and are less likely to be readmitted to hospital after discharge, compared to infants cared for primarily by staff. These infants are also more likely to be breastfed and for a longer time, which provides a host of long-term health benefits. The improved confidence and skills of parents in FICare increases parental readiness for the transition from hospital to home, improves management abilities at home, and lowers parental anxiety. Finally, parental involvement helps staff feel more confident in the abilities of the parent, which will help facilitate getting everyone home as soon as possible.

Scan your network for open port and take action against it using powershell

Good day
For some reason you may need to run an IP Scanner on your network, most of IP scanner can also perform a port scan, but I did not find free one that can make action against the open port, like test SSL version on the running web server, or get information about the running web service or any other action.
So I decide to write my own script and share it with you.

#for me I just want to get a list of computers that are running Windows 2008.
#You can cancel or modify the filter
#All the result will be loaded to a variable named as allservers
$allservers=Get-ADComputer -Properties name,operatingSystem -Filter{operatingSystem -like "*2008*"}
foreach($singleServer in $allservers){
$socket=New-Object net.Sockets.TcpClient

#its possible to use IF insted of TRY, but you will get an error when the connection fail, so its recommend to use Try/Catch/Finally
#Try Function will be used to initial the connection
#Good information about Try/Catch/Finally Here

    #The created Socket will be used to connect to the server on port 443
        Write-Host "The port on " $singleServer.Name " is " -NoNewline
        Write-Host "open" -ForegroundColor Green
        C:\SSLScan.exe $
        #Use Catch to get the System error
        Catch [system.exception]{
        Write-Host "The port on " $singleServer.Name " is " -NoNewline
        Write-Host "Closed" -ForegroundColor red

I hope you like this script, Please like the page and share it :)
Thanks for reading

Pastured Eggs Vs. Free-Range Eggs Vs. Factory Farmed Eggs

Thursday, April 28th, 2016

Eggs – one of the most economical, nutrient-rich foods to nourish your family – provided they are pastured. Pastured eggs are rich in vitamin D, omega 3 fatty acids, beta carotene, vitamin A, vitamin E, and both cholesterol and saturated fat – which are GOOD for you, despite 50-60 year old “science” was decades of research have been refuting. (That’s right, the cholesterol and saturated fat in pastured eggs are GOOD for you – so skip the egg white and enjoy!!)

Now, here’s the thing. When you go to the grocery store, you are faced with countless options. Regular, factory farmed eggs, vegetarian eggs, flaxseed/omega eggs, free range eggs. Therein lies the problems:

  • Not one of these is PASTURE RAISED.
  • Chickens are NOT vegetarians.
  • Most of these are fed GMO soy, corn, grain, etc.
  • Free range is NOT the same as Pasture Raised.
  • Chickens need to be outside to get vitamin D from the sun.

Factory chickens are crowded in cages, with little to no room to move or even turn around. They are fed GMO feed, pumped with antibiotics to contain the frequent outbreaks of salmonella, and live a miserable existence, providing sub-par eggs with only a fraction of the nutrients their pasture raised counterparts have.

Free range eggs means the chickens are giving access to the outdoors – this time tends to be minimal, if at all. They too are overcrowded into large, windowless sheds, handled by factory workers in clean room suits because of their high susceptibility to disease – because of their living conditions, and since they are not given antibiotics. That is what free range, big organic chicken farms really look like.

Truly pastured eggs are from local farmers who keep their chickens outdoors, allowing them to eat their natural diet of bugs and worms (that’s how they get their PROTEIN), while roaming around in the sunshine soaking up vitamins and nutrients. Compared to factory farmed eggs, truly pastured eggs have been found to be significantly richer in vitamins and nutrients, including:

  • 1/3 less cholesterol
  • 1/4 less saturated fat
  • 2/3 more vitamin A
  • 2 to 13 times more omega-3 fatty acids
  • · 3 times more vitamin E
  • 5 times more vitamin D
  • · 7 times more beta carotene
  • · 50% more folic acid
  • · 70% more vitamin B12
  • · 10% less fat
  • · 34% less cholesterol

Concerned about costs? Consider this: you would have to eat 5 factory farmed eggs to get the same amount of vitamin D from 1 pastured egg. 1 pastured egg provides you with infinitely more nutrients. What’s more, besides being more flavorful and delicious, many people have found that pastured eggs are more filling, meaning it only takes 1-2 pastured eggs to fill them up as opposed to 2-4+ factory eggs – likely because of the nutrient content. In the long run you may actually save money!!

Each farm we source our food from was handpicked from Steve Moreau, the creator of What’s more, he regularly visits the farms himself – ensuring peace of mind for each of us that our food is being properly, safely, and humanely sourced. He hosts a yearly gathering where you the customer can go visit the farm, and see the chickens, pigs, and other animals roaming freely about the rich, green landscape – free from the antibiotics, pesticides, GMOs, overcrowding, GMO grain and corn feed, and other issues rampant in the factory farming industry. is about  a return to tradition – sustainable and traditional farming, ancestral and traditional nutrition, and the relationships of olden days where our grandparents knew exactly where their food was coming from – and the local farmers providing it.

Lose Weight, Boost Mood and Memory, Improve Health with Grass-Fed

Wednesday, February 11th, 2015

Reasons why hormone-free, chemical-free, GMO-free, pastured and grass-fed farm raised foods are better for your health, and how to boost mood, memory and weight loss efforts:

Eating choline-rish pastured eggs boosts acetylcholine which impacts mood, focus, and memory. Pastured eggs are also a natural source of vital omega 3 fatty acids.

Consuming grass-fed milk, yogurt and cheese aids the body in producing norepinephrine, the neurotransmitter responsible for motivation, concentration, and alertness as well as memory formation and storage. Furthermore, sugar and wheat cause cravings, whereas increasing your consumption of nutrient-rich healthy fats and protein from grass-fed sources will have a more satiating effect while benefiting overall mood and cognition.

Grass-fed cheese, pastured butter, raw milk and cottage cheese have been found to be excellent sources of conjugated linoleic acid (cla). CLA is an antioxidant, anti-carcinogen, and anti-catabolite. It has been shown to promote long term weight loss, fat burning, and lean muscle building and retention, as well as increased metabolic rate. CLA has also been found to help against inflammation, high blood pressure, high cholesterol, diabetes, cardiovascular disease, food-induced allergic reactions, and even improves the immune system as well as insulin resistance.

Eating a cup of cooked, organic spinach will aid your body in making use of essential amino acids. Spinach is rich in folic acid, which has been found to help your body better synthesize both serotonin and norepinephrine. Studies have linked folic acid deficiency with depression.

Boost serotonin with trytophain-rish grass-fed meats and pastured cottage cheese, free from antibiotics, chemicals, and GMOs. Serotonin is a vital neurotransmitter for learning, good mood, healthy sleep, and memory. Low levels of serotonin are associated with depression, aggressive behavior, and insomnia.

Consuming probiotic-rich foods such as kefir, sauerkraut, and other fermented foods helps with digestive health as well as mood and brain functioning. By restoring proper gut balance, your body can better digest and utilize the key nutrients responsible for optimal neurotransmitter functioning.

By choosing grass-fed, pastured sources for your meat, chicken, eggs, milk cheese, yogurt, and kefir, you are providing your body with a higher source of nutrients without the dangers of GMOs, pesticides, and chemicals. Besides being more filling and satiating, grass-fed foods typically have 2-5 times the content of essential nutrients such as omega 3 fatty acids, conjugated linoleic acid, vitamins A, E, D, B12, folic acid, beta carotene,  and more.

Health & Taste Challenge: Try 2 farm fresh, pastured eggs and compare them to 2 factory eggs from the store. The pastured eggs are plumper, tastier, and infinitely more filling and nutritious – it would take 2-4 factory eggs to get the nutrient content and satiation of only 1 pastured egg!

The Incredible, Edible Egg

Farm Fresh Pastured Egg (brown) vs Factory Egg (white)

Pasture Eggs vs Factory Eggs

Trouble sleeping? Feeling foggy? Bad Mood?
Eat an egg. Or two. Eggs are a superfood, providing building blocks for healthy neurotransmitter functioning including boosting serotonin, dopamine,   nor- epinephrine, epinephrine and acetylcholine levels in the brain while providing a host of essential nutrients.
Rich in protein, eggs are high in tryptophan which is involved in the production of serotonin, the “feel-good hormone.” Low levels of tryptophan (and thus, serotonin) are associated with depression, insomnia, weight gain, and other health issues. Increasing your intake of eggs boosts tryptophan which in turn increases serotonin. This boost brings with it a natural uplifting of mood and improvements in sleep, mood regulation, and overall feelings of well-being.
Eggs are also high in tyrosine which is involved in the production of dopamine, nor- epinephrine and epinephrine. Why is this important? These neurotransmitters are responsible for mental alertness and activity, energy, cognition, concentration, motivation and memory creation and storage. Tyrosine is also crucial to the production of thyroid hormones.
Egg yolks are an abundant source of choline, which is vital to the metabolism of fat. Choline is the building block for acetylcholine which is vital for concentration, memory storage and recall, focus, muscle coordination, thought and cognition.
Furthermore, research has confirmed that eggs do not in fact raise cholesterol and are part of a heart-healthy diet. The yolks are a healthy fat, providing countless vital nutrients to the brain and heart, including lutein and zeaxanthin, two antioxidants associated with improving vision and eye health.
There’s just one catch: if you want the full benefit of nutrients and health, opt for pastured or free-range eggs. Also opt for raw as much as possible, as cooking (especially microwaving) destroys many of the nutrients. Besides providing a superior source of nutrients, pastured/free-range eggs have a significantly lower risk of contamination by disease-causing bacteria than their caged counterparts.
Other benefits to pastured eggs are that the hens live a more humane life, free to roam instead of being confined and jam-packed into cages. More time in the sun leads to increased vitamin d, and being free to eat a more natural, varied diet, i.e. more protein and nutrients as opposed to grain, soy, corn, additives, hormones, chemicals, and antibiotics, leads to nutritionally superior eggs.
In fact, studies have shown far higher nutrient content in grass-fed, pastured eggs than factory eggs, including:

-two to four times more omega-3 fatty acids
-10% less fat; 25% less satured fat
-40-70% more vitamin A
-34% less cholesterol
-3 times more vitamin E
-7 times more beta carotene
-three to six times more vitamin D
-70% more vitamin B12
-50% more folic acid

Pastured eggs are richer in color, plumper, thicker, and tastier than their factory counterparts. This is truly a case of you get what you pay for; pastured eggs are nutrient dense, tastier, and far more humane than factory eggs which are provide far less nutritional value and taste, and are raised in deplorable conditions. “You’d have to eat 5 supermarket eggs to get the same amount of vitamin D from one pastured egg.”

The bottom line: shop farm fresh, support local, and know that you’re getting the healthiest, nutritionally superior foods procured under humane and healthy conditions. That’s good for the body, the mind and the soul.

This is precisely what Dr. Steve Moreau has done for you as part of his service making farm fresh grass-fed, pastured, nutritionally (and ethically) superior food available in Central Florida. He offers pastured eggs with no growth hormones, antibiotics or chemicals, which he assures as such after his own personal inspection of local farms. His service supports local farmers while providing a variety of healthy and humanely produced eggs, meats, dairy, greens, and other farm fresh, grass-fed, pastured, and nutrient dense foods for convenient purchase from one of several Central Florida locations.

Farm Fresh Food on Oprah

Local Food on Oprah.
Oprah did a wonderful show on local food this past week.  She was inspired by the documentary film Food, Inc. Oprah’s guest was local food activist and author Michael Pollan. Our local food  movement  just got a shot in the arm and such exposure goes along way to building credibility. At we have always valued, grass-fed beef, organic eggs, and grass-fed raw milk. Especially raw milk produced locally for us in the Orlano area.  For those who missed it check out the links below.

Written by Kenda Roberstson and Steve Moreau

This movie will open your eyes to how food is produced and marketed in the US. Our industrial production model views animals as units of to be sold instead of gifts of nature who sacrifice their lives for our sustenance.

Farm fresh foods are becoming increasingly available. Local food from small farmers provide grass-fed beef, free range eggs, raw milk, and pastured chickens. Farmers markets are teeming with local organic produce of all kinds. Seek and ye will find!

The film is now in Orlando at the Regal Winter Park Village 20.

Coleslaw with Greek Yogurt Poppyseed Dressing

In celebration of an unseasonably warm Groundhog Day, what better than a barbecue?

The guests brought the meat, but I put together a potato salad and a coleslaw. (It worked out perfectly for us, but why, I wonder, do these quintessential summer side dishes rely on potatoes and cabbage, those most wintery of CSA staples?)

The potato salad was our old-fashioned Gourmet standard. (The secret is tossing the hot potato pieces with cider vinegar; this time I added lemon zest.)

I went looking for a good old-fashioned coleslaw recipe to go with it, but had some trouble finding one that wasn't too similar to potato salad. Mark Bittman doesn't dignify the standard in How to Cook Everything (he gives a spicy no-mayo coleslaw instead). But we make an awful lot of Asian slaws around here, so the Internet's multitude of "oil + vinegar = no-mayo coleslaw" recipes were Just Too Boring. (Incidentally, know who's really into coleslaw? Smitten Kitchen.)

AskMetafilter's discussion of no-mayo slaws suggested poppyseed dressing, and the yogurt was literally on the counter in front of me, being strained. (There are plenty of yogurt and Greek yogurt coleslaws out there; interestingly, most also use some mayonnaise.)

Here's what I put together:

1/2 cup Greek yogurt (I actually used our own coop-made yogurt, strained)
3 tablespoons poppyseed salad dressing
1 teaspoon Dijon mustard
1 teaspoon brown sugar (optional; our yogurt is unsweetened and very tangy)
1 teaspoon celery seeds
Pinch of salt

The salad is shredded cabbage, carrots, and green onions, with a sprinkling of dried cranberries for extra sweetness.

TN Awareness

Yesterday was Trigeminal Neuralgia Awareness Day.  It is marked by a teal ribbon.

Far Guy has had Trigeminal Neuralgia since Christmas Day 2007.  Six miserable years.  Right now he is taking only one medication.  He weaned himself off of the one that made him feel brain dead.

Tn Teal Ribbon

When you have TN you need a good Neurologist.  Far Guy’s opinion and mine differ on Doctors.  He thinks that his Neurologist doesn’t always listen to his complaints.  I think he listens he just doesn’t have any solutions.

I can tell you that it is no wonder that the suicide rate amongst those with TN is very high.

What we have found what helps, taking your medication on time, NO STRESS (easier said than done for a Type A personality), never leave home without a hat, cap or something hooded.  Even a slight breeze can trigger a bad “attack.”   I don’t care if it is summer or winter. Ceiling fans are  the worst, and places with high ceilings that have air currents….like the grocery store.  Sometimes he must eat softer foods, he never eats anything crunchy.  Sometimes it hurts for him to talk, I can tell when that happens because he talks funny.  Chance is very in tune to him, he could be a TN Service Dog, he doesn’t like the wind either and he knows when it is time to rest.  Chance will take him by the hand and lead him to the couch or to bed.

People with TN look normal, they don’t have a visible sign of the rare disorder.  Unless of course their hats give them away.  They don’t have “headaches” they don’t like to have their faces touched, they don’t like to hug women especially ones with fluffy hair.

In six years we have tried just about everything that we can.  Different medications, different Doctors, different oils, acupuncture, chiropractor and nerve injections.  We even thought about hypnosis, I used to work with a hypnotist years ago, I attempted to contact him and found out he was deceased. Fat bunch of help he is now.

The pain is misfiring nerves out of control…the pain feels like a cattle prod has touched the side of your face/head.  Sometimes many times a day, sometimes a few times a day. Then there is the background pain that never goes away. Far Guy has Atypical Trigeminal Neuralgia, the rare form of the rare disorder.

There are some things we cannot control.  Weather systems moving in make for a real miserable day. The wind, no one can control that either.

We will attend a support group in the St Cloud area during the winter if the weather cooperates.

I know there are many of you out there with TN that read the blog.  I pray everyday for a cure…I am sure you do too..Shirley and Lisa please know we think of you often:)

  Blog Signature

  1. I pray for a cure, too. Gene had TN about a year by the time I began blogging. I love the ribbon/slogan above...never give up hope.
    Love to you guys.

  2. I pray they find a cure. As a chronic pain suffer I kind of know what Far Guy goes through. Never give up hope or trying to find something that helps.

  3. I had never heard of the disorder before I learned of it on your blog. It sounds just awful. I'm so glad that Far Guy has you and Chance to help him cope. What a strange illness! And it never goes away or gets better? Mercy!

  4. This all is new to me as well. It's certainly evident Far Guy is a very brave man.....

  5. Hi:
    I am the Shirley that you mentioned along with Lisa. Thank you for thinking of us!
    I still have "Anesthesia Dolorosa" Gene - you remember I had surgery (Balloon Compression) that took away the lightning like pains but left me with perpetual sort of numbness of the right side of my face and scalp. There is constant burning, itching, a sort of spasm like grip that never goes away day or night; It is not pain but ever present and very distracting There is no such thing as ignoring it as you can with some maladies. MY TN side eye is affected and waters and burns all the time. I have better vision in that eye than the other one says the eye doctor. So the TN has not affected my vision thank goodness. It just FEELS like it is affected if you know what I mean and is very distracting. I have not seen a neurologist about this because am afraid that things could be made worse with any further "treatment" but maybe one of these days I will see one. So Gene you know how I feel for and with you. Here's hoping that some day there will be some way of treating TN.

  6. Forgot to say I usually sign off with Shirley H.!

  7. I never heard of TN before. It sounds just awful. I will hope for a cure also.

  8. I too have been educated about that condition from your blog. Thinking of Gene and all others who suffer from it. Hope some sort of cure is found soon.

  9. I learned something today as I have never heard of TN. It is wonderful that Chance recognizes the signs and looks after Gene. I pray that there will be a cure for this disease. It sounds awful.

  10. I am very happy that this blog has educated more people about Trigeminal Neuralgia. It is not all that rare but many have not heard about it and some of these are doctors and dentists. Thanks for spreading the word.
    Shirley H.

  11. One of the best features of blogs and the Internet is that we learn about rare conditions and can communicate with others who are going through the same thing. It helps to know we are not alone.
    I have a grandson with Ehrler's-Danslow syndrome, another rare condition. If we all help each other, maybe someone will come up with more effective treatment for these disorders.

  12. My mom had this and Dilantin helped her a lot.

  13. Thanks for sharing the perspective of someone on the 'other side'...of the TN fence, that is. I too have the more rare form of the rare disorder - though my ATN pains were caused by the surgeries meant to fix my condition. And they wonder why I don't like the idea of another knife in my head!
    I've done the round of meds - hated the side effects. Had the mvd(x2) and a rhyzotomy - all failed. High does of lyrica and I take T3s or marijuana. Tried everything else to no avail. At least I can pretend to take part in things now... Lots of 'parenting from the couch'.
    Thanks for sharing this story!!

  14. You give an excellent description of TN. It sounds absolutely miserable. I wonder what percentage of people have it. There are many things that we know what they are but not how to treat them. Too many medications make you feel worse for other reasons.

  15. I am so glad you wrote this, Far Side. Lately, I've been wondering how your Far Guy was doing with TN. I know this is a challenging condition to face in general, but ever since you've introduced us to Far Guy, it's an entirely different thing to think of a person we know (well, online) having to go through all of this. From time to time, I think of him, pray for him, and wonder how things are going for him. Since you haven't mentioned much about it lately, I was hoping he was having better days. This sounds like something you shouldn't wish on your worst enemy. Wishing for a cure, or at least a manageable treatment plan to hold those symptoms at bay...

  16. I was totally UNaware of TN. It sounds awful!
    Just a thought from a person living in a pot state - have you tried medical marijuana?

  17. Ever since I started following your blog I have been praying for Far Guy...I started about the time you found out...like you I pray for a cure!

Thanks for stopping by! I appreciate your comments! If you have a question I will try to answer it here. Connie

Hard to love somebody

Hi! The weekend went well and this week has been great too! I found out on Saturday that me and another Emilia will be confirmation camp leaders this summer, looking forward to getting to know lots of new people :) And I received a letter from the school I applied to and got in, now I have 11 months of fashion design ahead of me in Helsinki, I'm so exited! The first lessons are in February which is starting to be pretty full of stuff for me... Both my little brothers' birthdays, the school, and being part of the decoration team for a big evening at Jovi. More about those later :)

That's cold enough for me thank you! Avoided going out on that day.

New rings from work, the white one is real geode!

Got these while having coffee with a friend on Saturday and yes, we did browse through some shops too... The jewellery is from Gina Tricot, the rose gold cuff necklace and lip ring were on sale for 1,50 euros each. The make-up bag is from H&M and perfect for fitting all my cosmetics for overnight stays!

Had time on Sunday to try new nails, not quite sure if I like them or not :D

Then some outfits, not sure which day this is from but wanted to try a new sweater-and-shirt combo since the one in my previous post wasn't quite how I'd have liked it to be... I like this much more with sweater from Cubus, shirt from H&M and jeans from Dr. Denim :)

From yesterday with Monki shirt and Weekday skirt.

From today with Carlings t-shirt and Rut m.fl. skirt.

Marked pictures from weheartit.com.

Julianne Moore

I love Julianne Moore. She's a great actress, and an absolutely stunning lady, especially when she sticks to her red-headed roots.

As far as I can recall, she always had a pretty hot figure, too. Not that you'd know from this dress.

I understand that not every dress has to be skin-tight, super-mini, and low-cut to be attractive...but this is verging on dowdy. And I hate the color combination. It's very 80's-beach-towel like. (Not that I still have any beach towels from the 80's. That would be...insane...)

Perhaps it's all on purpose. Let's start a rumor: (I want to be the first to say it): JULIANNE MOORE IS PREGNANT!!!

Hehehe. My evil work has been done.

No Makeup Mondays- April

I want to thank Functional Girl on facebook one more time for turning me on to the no makeup mondays idea. The idea is that everyone is beautiful despite what the beauty industry would have you believe. A multi billion dollar industry trying to sell you false beauty? Who'd have thought it? Anyway, if you friend me on facebookk (FatGirl Posing) you get to see these updated every week. So here's your April photos with no makeup. Feel free to friend me and post your own photos on my page for me to see. :) I'd love to see all of you and your natural beauty.

Fat and Naked

Happy birthday to me! Happy birthday to me! Yes, it's my birthday and a perfect day to post these gorgeous photos from Bryan Regan Photography from yesterday's shoot. They're so perfect they look like oil paintings and I'm in love with each and every one of them. Even though they show off a lot of parts of me that I don't like, when I was taking them I didn't feel self conscious in the least. I felt like a work of art.

Every time I do a nude shoot I still struggle. The process has gotten easier over time though and I'm starting to feel proud of my naked body and view it as something beautiful and unique. I  have small boobs, big thighs, a kinda flat butt, but I don't care. At least not right this moment. This morning I tried on my new fatkini  and felt very badly about my breasts and their size. Another good reason to post these photos! To show everyone and myself that it doesn't matter. All bodies are beautiful no matter what.

American Gothic; The Bad Part of Town

I had a wonderful and exciting shoot with Bryan Regan Photography today. We visited a neighborhood in Raleigh with lots of rundown and abandoned, boarded up buildings. We didn't visit all of them, but we found some colorful spots for photos. He wanted to shoot in an American Gothic type style. Bryan enjoys capturing real people in real locations. Not that fashion models are fake or the locations are fake (okay, sometimes they are), but what I think he meant was something more raw. Anyway, I love the locations we found and I hope you enjoy our handiwork.

And one more- A kind of behind the scenes photo in which I'm scrunching my face because the sun was in my eyes.

Fat Sex, Slut Shaming, and Desexualization

I wanna talk about a few things. First is fat sex and how awesome it is. Or rather how not unawesome it is. Did that make sense? See, a lot of people assume that fat sex is difficult or unsatisfying, or maybe just not that awesome. I've had sex with thin men and fat men and with fat women. And hi.. I'm fat too.. in case you forgot. Which means that everyone I've slept with.. *gasp*.. had sex with a fat person... and liked it! At least that's what their O face seems to have implied. And most of them had sex with me multiple times even! I know I know, its' a lot to take in. I'll give you a moment.....okay, moment taken? Good. I've never had problem with any position, but if you do, there are blogs for that.  There's more to fat sex than just awesomeness though.

Ever been slut shamed as a fat sexual person? Or assumed to be promiscuous? There's the people who just assume that you're compensating for something with lots of sex (which is weird because these same people would swear that people don't wanna have sex with fatties. hum. ). Personally I've heard a lot of slut shaming going on from these crowds. Because you can't just be a sex positive empowered fat person. No! You have to be doing it because of your low self esteem. Usually this also means that you're reckless and unsafe and uninformed about sex with all those people who don't wanna sleep with you to begin with. (are you getting a headache from this?). Because the assumption, wrong or right, that you're promiscuous comes with the assumption that that's a bad thing to be. Look here. These people are idiots okay? You know and I know that not all fatties sleep with everyone they see. And you know and I know that even if they did that would be just fine because sex is good. Remember? Fat sex is awesome.

This doesn't mean that low self esteem sex or compensation sex doesn't happen. I'm sure it does. The problem comes when you start to generalize and assume. You know what they say about the word assume. Each fat person is an individual person with their own reasons for sex. We have this great thing called autonomy, meaning independence or freedom. Bodily autonomy means our bodies, our choice, none of your freaking business.

But what about the opposite? Desexualization of fat people? It goes a little bit back to all those people who aren't supposed to want to fuck us to begin with. Sometimes hypersexualization and desexualization happen at the same time (try getting your head around that one!). I've even been told, trigger warning here, that fat people don't get raped or sexually assaulted because no one would want a fatty. I'm dead serious. Imagine how fucked up it would be to be told that and think about how that ties into the desexualization of fat people. I'm suddenly reminded of that clip from The Lorax when the lorax is arguing with a fat woman and the main character chimes in with "you wouldn't hit a woman would you?" and the lorax responds in disbelief with, "that's a woman?!".

Yep, be prepared to be stripped of your entire identity as a fat person and especially as a fat woman. Not only are you not a sexual being, but you don't even register as anything other than a genderless blob. This is because fat people are so gross that people don't want to think of them as sexual beings. Much like old people or disabled people, or, god, you can think about the conservative's ick reaction to gay sex (you can think about the ageism, ableism, and homophobia that go along with those as well). People just think, ick! and so reduce you to a thing. It's the ultimate in dehumanization. To have your sexuality taken from you just because someone else can't stand the thought of it.

Whatever the issues surrounding it, it's clear that we have a lot of work to do regarding sex and fat sex specifically. We live in an incredibly sex negative culture where sex is not talked about except in hushed whispers and harsh accusations. When are we going to understand that sex is a natural and beautiful thing for those who are sexual beings regardless of weight, height, age, ability, skin color, sexual orientation, or anything else. We need to deeply explore our feelings about sex to uncover some hard truths about ourselves and our culture. We use sex as a weapon, as an insult, as a means of objectification, as a means of control, as a way to police people and bodies. It has to end. Sex is good. Fat sex is awesome.

Day at the Park

Had a fabulous time with my friend Katherine at her birthday shoot. I was mostly there taking photos of all the beautiful women who showed up (that's right, I take photos too!), but I had a couple snapped of me as well that I thought I'd share.

Makeup Free Monday- Feb and March

 February I missed a couple of weeks, but March's are all there, I swear! I'll mention again that I first got started doing these makeup free Mondays as a result of Functional Girl on facebook. They call for photos of followers, every monday, of women without makeup on. Because you're beautiful just the way you are and because you don't have to buy into a multi billion dollar industry that tells you there's something wrong with you.

Clasped Weft Weaving

In my latest piece I was using the clasped weft technique as a way to interconnect two different types of threads in the same open shed.  In my case, discount I was using cotton and wool roving yarn as a way to explore the different ways these two materials shrink and behave after washing.  20161126_132037

However, pilule the most common use for this technique is to have two different colors or textures of yarn in a single row of weaving.  This really is a simple technique with limitless design potential.

If you are interested in learning this technique has an informative blog entry by Kaz Madigan called, viagra  “Clasped Weft Weaving: Easy, High Impact Designs to Try“. Included are step by step pictures to help you get on your way.  If you prefer videos Kelly Casanova has a very thorough video for weaving this technique on a rigid heddle loom.  Below is a picture of the finished piece she works on in her video.

RIP Eartha Kitt

I just read that Eartha Kitt, the actress and singer I knew best for playing Catwoman in the '60s Batman show, died today from cancer. She was 81.

I'm really sorry to hear that. She was a good person.

Christmas Carol Question

I've a quick Q' for all you good people.

What's your favorite traditional Christmas song?

Mine's "Good King Wenceslas".

Therefore, Christian men, be sure
Wealth or rank possessing
Ye who now will bless the poor
Shall yourselves find blessing.

Good advice for all of us, be you Christian or (like myself) atheist. That's what's important to me on Christmas: making other people happy. It's something we should try to remember all year long.

Merry Christmas, folks.

Reading Regrets

From my excellent friends Ami Angelwings and David Wynne:

On the assumption that in ten years, a lot of twenty-somethings will be re-reading Twilight and wincing in embarrassment:

Name three series or writers that you devoured as a teen but are now somewhat sheepish about having liked as much as you did. For each series, list off what you dug about them, what you're wincing at in retrospect, and whether you'd read 'em again.

This was kinda tough, because there's not a whole lot I'm embarrassed about having enjoyed. (What can I say? I am a gentleman of exquisite taste.) Heck, I'm not even ashamed that I liked The Sword of Shannara! I had to really wrack my brain to come up with answers to this.

1: The Chronicles of Narnia by C. S. Lewis
What I dug about them: They're epic fantasy. That alone was enough to get me hooked at first. C. S. Lewis was an imaginative writer who was equally good at writing action and humor, so it was easy to get into his books.
What I'm wincing at in retrospect: There's no easy way to put this: The entire series was a recruitment tool for conservative Christianity. I loved the books without question until the very last page of the last book, where Lewis wrote something to the effect of "...and Aslan no longer looked as a lion to them." Yes, Aslan didn't just represent Jesus, he was Jesus. The realization that the books served no purpose but to preach at me made me angry. I've hated allegory ever since. This is why I feel The Lord of the Rings was a far superior fantasy: there are Christian themes in the book and things Christians can find applicable to their beliefs, but nothing that actually represents anything from Christianity. And that's not even touching Lewis's implicit bigotry toward women (who screw everything up if they're not perfect little Christians) and racism (because good Calormenes actually worship Aslan, they just don't know it yet).
Would I read them again?: Probably not. Not least because I rarely re-read prose novels that I've already read (making an exception for Tolkien), but also because I just can't reconcile Lewis's worldview with my own. I'd be too busy gnashing my teeth in frustration to enjoy them.

2. Love Hina by Ken Akamatsu
What I dug about it: Akamatsu's art, while standard-issue "cute manga" style, was still very expressive and dynamic, and the man has an incredible gift for sight gags. If nothing else, the comic was consistently fast-paced and funny.
What I'm wincing at in retrospect: It's just a typical sexist harem manga. Actually, no, scratch that. It's the archetypal sexist harem manga. You've got one nerdy loser of a male surrounded by a bunch of gorgeous young women with improbable figures who by the end of the series are all head-over-heels in love with him. Plus some of the running gags, like Naru's hair-trigger acts of violence against Keitaro whenever she (inevitably wrongly) assumes he's perving on her or the other girls got incredibly tiresome after the first volume. And as for Ken Akamatsu himself, once I learned that he drew pornographic comics about pre-pubescent girls and wrote an essay that defended rape, well, that was the straw that broke the camel's back.
Would I read them again?: I might, if only to look at the art again.

3. Lots and lots of Star Wars tie-in novels
What I dug about them: Um, well. They were novels about Star Wars. That's pretty much all I needed.
What I'm wincing at in retrospect: I can't really get as in-depth about these as the others. The problem with them is simple: they're cash-grabbing crap written by talentless hacks. That's all.
Would I read them again?: If someone put a gun to my head and ordered me to, I might consider it.

Fault determination is regulated. Auto Insurance Tips.

With auto accidents, someone is always determined to be “at-fault”, either partially or fully. Here’s why:
Insurance companies—guided by provincial law called theInsurance Act and its Fault Determination Rules—must assess the degree of fault to be assigned to each driver, to determine the type of property damage coverage that applies to the accident.Fault is also used by insurance companies to determine future rates for the at-fault driver(s).
To get a better understanding of fault assessment, take a look at the most frequently asked questions on the subject, answered by the Financial Services Commission of Ontario (FSCO), the regulator of the auto insurance industry in Ontario:

Q: Can fault in an auto accident be shared?
A: Yes. The circumstances may show that more than one driver was partially at-fault for insurance purposes.
Q: How does an at-fault accident affect me?
A: It’s a matter of degree. A driver can be anywhere from 100 percent to zero percent at-fault, but if it’s anything more than zero percent, it will put an “at-fault accident” on your insurance record, and your rates will likely go up.
Important: Did you know that when you lend your vehicle to someone, you are also lending your insurance? If that person has an at-fault accident, it will go on your insurance record, and it will be your insurance rates that will go up.
Q: How do police charges or convictions affect an insurance company’s decisions?
A: Police charges are a significant factor, but if you are charged with an offence, you will not necessarily be found at-fault for insurance purposes. Similarly, if the police don’t file charges, it does not necessarily mean that the insurance company review won’t find one or more of the drivers at-fault. Drivers are individually assessed under the Fault Determination Rules.

Q: What should I do if I disagree with the decision of my insurer?
A: Speak to the claims adjuster handling your file and ask which Fault Determination Rule has been applied to your case. Generally, an insurance company will only revise or reconsider its decision on fault if new and relevant information is provided. If you still disagree with your insurance company, contact the company’s complaint officer, who will guide you through the complaint-handling procedures.

More information on auto insurance and the Fault Determination Rulesis available online at www.fsco.gov.on.ca where you can download the brochure After an Auto Accident: Understanding the Claims Process.

Immediate Fixed Annuity – The Basics

An immediate annuity is a popular investment tool that allows you to turn the money you saved for retirement into retirement income through a secure way.

You pay the premium of your annuity contract to the insurance company. In return, they will provide you with a regular income for as long as you live or for a certain number of years, depending on the payout option you indicated in your annuity contract. You can choose to receive payments every month, every quarter, or every year. The immediate annuity, which is also referred to as the classic annuity, stretches the purchasing power or the value of the money that you had saved.

In insurance policies, underwriting questions are usually used by insurance companies in estimating the remaining number of years that the client still has to live. The client’s life expectancy will then be used to settle the amount of premium he/she has to pay for his/her insurance policy. The process is not the same with immediate annuities. In purchasing immediate annuities, questions about your personal health, medical history, and lifestyle, are not included. Thus, you have better odds in living longer than your life expectancy (that the insurance company estimated).

There are two basic types of immediate annuities – the variable and the fixed. Variable immediate annuities allow you to invest your money in the stock market. On the other hand, fixed immediate annuities allow you to guarantee a regular and stable source of income that can last for as long as you live no matter what happens to the economy or to the stock market. The latter type is the focus of this article.

The immediate fixed annuity may be a good option for conservative investors who do not want to risk their money in the stock market. If you cannot afford to lose your hard-earned money and if you are preparing for your retirement, this annuity could be one of the best annuity available for you.

The following are the basic features of an Immediate Fixed Annuity:

1. In non-qualified immediate fixed annuities, a portion of the monthly income is not subjected to taxation. On the other hand, income from qualified immediate annuities is subjected to taxation.

2. Unlike in other annuities in which you can give annual contributions to the insurance company until you have built up the complete cost of your contract, the premium in an immediate fixed annuity can be paid in one lump sum only.

3. It provides you with a definite regular income.

4. A long contract term will result to a lower annuity income. This is because the premium has to be stretched for several years. For example, if you want to receive income for twenty years, the income payout will be half the income you can receive if you choose to receive income for ten years only.

5. Income payout is proportional to your issuance age. Income payout is based on your life expectancy. If you are still young, (say, 40) it is assumed that you might still live for forty more years. Thus, you will receive a low-income payout because the insurance companies expect that they will give you income for forty more years. On the other hand, if you are already 60 years old, you will receive a higher income payout because your life expectancy is shorter. Note that in immediate annuities, annuity applicants should not be older than 90.

6. You can start withdrawing income from your account thirty days or a year after you have bought your annuity.

7. You can choose to receive payments for five years, ten years, fifteen years, twenty years, twenty-five years, thirty years, and for as long as you live.

About Sonia

Connecticut wallpaperingAs a woman in the wallpapering profession I am often asked, “How did you get started?” The short version is that I started out as an Industrial Painter in a factory. I was the first woman in maintenance in the facility's 100 years. The Lead Painter took me under his wing and taught me what he knew about painting and wallpapering. Quite soon I knew that wallpapering was my passion and would be my new career. In 1986, I quit my factory job, enrolled and graduated from the U.S. School of Professional Paperhanging, and started doing business as The Great Wall. Wallpapering is still my passion and craft after 24 years.

The Great Wall

When I started out in business, my goal was to provide homeowners and designers with a professional, reliable, competent service with an emphasis on being highly detail oriented. Next was to build a solid customer base.

Nearly 25 years later, I’m proud to say I've met my goals and continue to build The Great Wall’s reputation. My customer base includes homeowners with whom I've done multipleConnecticut wallpapering projects and, often, multiple homes. My customers are confident when calling me that I will treat them as friends and take care of their homes as if they were my own. Pet and child safety, dependability, and completing a project promptly are standards I strictly adhere to.

Designers I work with know I will be on the job when promised & finish on time. I strive to be an asset to their business & a valuable member of their team.

Building Relationships

I pride myself on my ability to understand each customer’s needs and exceed expectations with every project. How is this done? I take the time to get to know my customers and build a solid working relationship, then deliver results as promised. Sticking to those basic values has earned me the respect of both customers and designers.

If you're considering choosing me for your next project, I encourage you to read testimonials from some of the customers I’ve been proud to serve over the years.

On Matters of Math

It seems likely that DADT (Don't Ask, Don't Tell) will be repealed, if not now then in the near future. When that day comes, everyone will pat themselves on the back in an effort to acknowledge their incredible coolness. All will shout to the world that America is now officially cool and open and accepting and stuff. The world will then sing songs to America's greatness and ... no they won't, the world will still hate us but that's another post for another time. I think repealing DADT is a bad idea and let me explain why.

Math is a cruel bitch at the best of times and this is one of those times. One of the arguments used by the left for this repeal is the loss of skilled service members from the military because of their sexual orientation. Many numbers are batted about with a good center mass number somewhere in the 2000 range. I'm cool with that number, I think its probably too high but whatever, we'll use it. There you go, 2000 it will be. I am going to use the Army for our example here because the Army is what I know about, sorry jarheads, deck apes, and zoomies. There are 241 recruiting companies in the US Army Recruiting Command. They cover the entire nation to include Germany and American protectorates in the Pacific rim. Let us speculate a little. Lets say that each recruiting company looses 1 enlistment each month because of the repeal of DADT. One enlistment is not much is it? I see you grabbing your calculator, let me help, that is nearly 3000 lost enlistments each year. Oh my, that's 1000 more then our 2000 lost folks isn't it? This is just the Army. I assure you, people are already saying they plan on leaving the service and are definitely not recommending it to others. Some are talking out the side of their necks, but if even 10% are not, we have a problem. If math is your argument, you've lost, repeal will cost too damn much.

I don't give 2 bits about who you put your junk into after duty hours and in the privacy of your home. But I do care about the body I dedicated 22 years of my life to. People have no right to serve in the Armed Forces, none whatsoever. So what, you want to serve, goody for you, I want to be a porn star but we must all live with disappointment.

Say what?

I am mystified. Really, I am. It is the equivalent of throwing 6 interceptions in a game that the opposing team scores on each time and the coach blaming the kicking team. How can you be that clueless? How can something so simple be so badly misinterpreted? Well, you will have to ask the democrats because they have some serious comprehension issues going on right now.

Tuesday was simple. The voters don't like what your doing. It had nothing to do with messaging or the comprehension level of the electorate. It was and is entirely the feeling among the peoples that what you did was bad and needs to be corrected. The simplicity of this is hard to miss. But, the left seems to believe that the core problem was one of salesmanship and message. While I enjoy watching this slow motion train wreck, the constant whining about messaging is getting on my nerves.

If the democrats continue this tact then 2012 is going to be another blood bath with the white house also being a victim. I do want them to loose but I value the strength of my enemies. If my enemy is week and powerless, then my victory is meaningless. I need the left to get their crap together so we can smash them again and drive them before us and listen to the lamentations of their women.

Black Tuesday

Here we are, at the cusp of change. Tomorrow is the day we've been waiting for, the mid term elections are upon us and I am happy as hell. The left is going to get its ass handed to it and I am looking forward to spending Tuesday evening in a state of joy. I want to see democrats crying in the streets and committing some sort of grief ritual that includes moving out of the country, but I know that's probably a bit much to hope for or expect.
No, instead we'll hear all about how this is just people being unreasonable, because that whole, your stupid tactic always works. I am constantly amazed by the left, their complete inability to look long and hard at their own numbers and realize that the tactic of "If you were intelligent, you'd vote for us." just doesn't frakking work and just pisses people off. Pissed off people don't really like being treated like slightly retarded children, and that is the democrats biggest problem, how they view most of John Q. Public. Americans are not stupid, they like to ask questions and they like answers even more. No one is seriously against health-care in America. Everyone wants the system to be fixed and tweeked, but folks want you to close the loop and explain how your plan fixes things and how your going to pay for your plan.
I'll be at the polls first thing in the morning and you should be too.
