The incredible ring that can let you feel your partner’s heartbeat anywhere in the world

Having been in a long-distance relationship for over a year now, I am eternally grateful to technology and all the people who have worked towards its advancement over the years. I am grateful because it gave me extraordinary ways to communicate with my partner, regardless of the time and place we’re in. But no matter how advanced we get, no matter how many social media applications pop up in the world, and no matter how many times I see his face over a screen or listen to his voice from thousands of miles away, there is still nothing in the world that can be comparable to sitting right next to the guy I love.

We have been through a lot together- fighting for hours just because of the frustration of missing each other too much, constantly thinking of plans to meet each other, leaving our entire lives behind for a while just to be in each other’s arms for a while, defending ourselves in front of people who keep telling us it won’t work out. So one thing I can tell you is that being in a long-distance relationship is one of the hardest things a person can do in their life. No one wants to be apart from the person they love, especially for such long periods of time.

This is the reason why this ring is so special for long distance couples specifically. A company called The Touch has created ‘HB rings’ which allow a person to feel their significant other’s heartbeat in real-time, regardless of the distance between them. This is one comfort that can definitely put my mind at some much-needed ease.

There are two variations within the ring- the rose gold ring and the stainless steel ring. Both these types feature a Uni-body sapphire crystal surface, which means that they can’t get scratched. These rings are also incredible easy to use.

All you need to do is sync both the rings together using a smartphone app. And when you have mobile data or Wi-Fi, just tap the ring and get connected to your partner’s heartbeat.

Learn more about these rings below and pre-order your very own through here: TheTouch

ABB turns Saudi Arabian university campus green

ABB will provide its KNW intelligent building control system to Princess Noura Bint Abdulrahman University in Saudi Arabia for Saudi Oger.

ABB’s KNX-based technology allows automat and remote control of lighting and shading through one single interface, enabling reductions in energy usage.

“ABB is proud to be a part of the new campus for Princess Noura Bint Abdulrahman University project, which will be one of the largest universities in the Middle East,” says Ali Nazzal, Senior Sales and Operation Manager for Smart Home and Intelligent Building Controls, ABB Saudi Arabia.

“Buildings which have implemented ABB’s KNX technology have reported energy savings of up to 40%. As the first green building campus in Saudi Arabia, we believe that Princess Noura Bint Abdulrahman University will further the drive for significant cost savings and a lower carbon footprint in the Kingdom’s construction sector and be a benchmark for other universities looking to establish green campuses of their own.”

Once completed, the university campus will be 8 million m2, with approximately 3m m2 of built-up area.

“We’ve witnessed increasing demand for smart building solutions in Saudi Arabia, not only because of increased energy savings but also due to a desire for technology that automates basic functions such as lighting and shading,” says Adel Jaber, Low Voltage Products Business Unit Manager, ABB Saudi Arabia.

“As electricity consumption increases by 8% year on year there’s a need for such technology which will enable Saudi to become a more energy efficient country.”

Nudist mugged at Sandy Bay

Cops have arrested two men for robbery at a nudist beach.

The suspects approached and threatened a man who was walking on Sandy Bay on Tuesday.

The Imizamo Yethu township men allegedly demanded the victim's bag containing binoculars, a cellphone and a wallet with R120.

After the robbery, they fled the scene.

Hout Bay police spokesperson Tanya Lesch says the victim immediately raised the alarm.

"The victim informed the vendor at the entrance of Sandy Bay, who contacted the police," she says.

"We caught the suspects in Dorris Road, Kronenzicht. The complainant was able to identify the two men and his property that was still in their possession."

Lesch adds the suspected robbers, both aged 25, will appear in Wynberg Magistrates' Court on Thursday.

What is a country’s architecture? That is the question that the Venice Biennale's International Architecture Exhibition asks every two years, as any nation with the wherewithal and the will to fill either its own pavilion or a rented space in the Most Serene Republic flaunts its constructions or constructional aspirations. It is rare, though, that such displays give a true portrait of what is going on or will be built in that country. In most cases, countries show work on the margins, projects that represent their hopes or fears, or give a commentary through the medium of architecture on the state of the nation.

This year’s architecture biennale is, despite its emphasis on “common ground” and its call for a return of the real, no different. That is to a large extent a function of the fact that the biennale’s director, though he or she can set a theme, doesn’t control these spaces. I will not dwell on the many boring displays of earnest construction that fill many country’s spaces (though I will note that the American pavilion once again exhibits our lack of investment or concern about how we appear by showing countless very nice projects on pulldown panels that made it impossible to truly enjoy or understand them), and only note some of my favorites.

First, there is the Dutch Pavilion. Having been commissioner for the Gerrit Rietveld–designed space three times, I was especially delighted by the clarity of this year’s entry. In “Re-set,” the whole building is empty save for a curtain with various geometric patterns that moves on mechanized tracks throughout the space. In a programmed rhythm, the pavilion becomes one, two, three, four, or five spaces. It recalls the moving walls in Rietveld’s most famous design, the 1923 Schroeder House. Designer Petra Blaise did Rietveld proud.

The official Italian pavilion, which is usually a disaster of calls for monumentality and vernacular mindlessness, this year is only half that. The other half consists of a moss and fern garden, creating a green alternative to the dusty halls around it. One corner of the space shows a film about the industrialist Olivetti’s ill-fated foray into politics. The connection is a bit obtuse, but the combination of forest oasis and a bit of history offered an alternative view of Italy’s past and, perhaps, future. The green patch has a counterpart in the Angolan pavilion on San Giorgio Maggiore, where Stefano Rabolli and Paula Nascimento have created a forest of fast-growing grasses in a wing of the Cini Foundation to illustrate their proposal to plant such patches to clean air and water in Luanda.

The Polish pavilion is empty, or so it seems. Katarzyna Krakowiak, in “Making the wall quake as if they [sic] were dilating with the secret knowledge of great powers,” has not only plastered the walls, she has also tilted them slightly, and inserted a wood floor. He then worked with Ralf Meinz and Andrzej Klosak to explore and enhance the room’s acoustic properties, amplifying random sounds to create an atmosphere you only hear, but which changes everything about the space.

The Russian pavilion exhibits the plans for Skolkovo, a new city for which I am on the Supervisory Council. I will not comment on what was on display, but the mechanism is ingenious: walls and a complete dome are covered with QR codes; you receive a tablet at the entry, and view the projects by activating the codes. It is a bit of magic that I hope will someday be matched by the appearance of the buildings there.

I enjoyed the trinkets for sale in the Israeli pavilion, the high-tech green displays in the Spanish pavilion, and some of the experimental work, as well as the architect-designed fussball games at the Australian pavilion. The Golden Lion, awarded for best country participation, went to Japan, where Toyo Ito has installed hand-built models that help inhabitants understand how the areas devastated by the tsunami can be rebuilt. This is architecture at its most sincere and honest, but the forms in which it appears is affecting and, in the lack of polish, a welcome alternative to the rigidity and heaviness dominating the biennale’s official section.

That was my bike 2 years ago. I got it from the original owner . The LX sti were original equipment when he bought it although the catalogue listed it with twisters.

I only kept it for a short while cause it was too good to thrash and I dont have room for a garage queen. I sold it on to Clockworkgaz and he sold it on again after a short while. It was a fantastic bike to ride and superb condition. Well worth the £200 you are asking for it. It's good to see it again

Here's an old thread ...

Good luck with the sale , I regret selling it.

New paradigm or lack of knowledge of publishing history?

New paradigm or lack of knowledge of publishing history? I don’t have time to this morning, but before I leave the airwaves today, I will explain once more that people whose knowledge of magazine history is limited to two weeks ago, should never describe something as “a new paradigm.” There is nothing new about All You/WalMart/Big box retailer launch. Nothing. I’ll explain later, but walk into Home Depot and look for a shelf of books from Meredith if you want to begin somewhere.

Update: I almost forgot before unplugging from the grid: I promised to debunk the notion of any “paradigm shifting” related to the launch of All You magazine. I could go a few thousand words on this but I’ll try to do the brief version.

First, a disclosure: I am a shareholder of Time Inc. (purchased some the day it was announced Steve Case was leaving, some more the day Ted Turner cashed out). Some of my favorite magazine people either work at Time Inc. now or have at some point in their careers. And, for over a year, I’ve been on record as saying the Wal-Mart channel/Time Inc. connection is a great idea.That said, I would like to explain that the claim by some folks at Time that the way in which All You is being launched is some sort of paradigm-shifting “new way” of launching a magazine is a ridiculous.

Time Inc. is doing nothing new. How can something that’s already been done and documented by another magazine be anything new?

In addition, every week there are publishers who launch magazines dependent on narrow-channel retail newsstand distribution. That Wal-Mart has grown to be as large as entire channels and that Time Inc. is trying to utlize that channel with a special product is not a new paradigm, merely the repetition of that which is done with every one-off movie tie-in magazine, home-design-planner or hobbiest/enthusiast magazine coming off the press. Walk into Michaels, the big box crafts store and you’ll see a rack of magazines you’d be hard pressed to find anywhere else. Home Depot has had a relationship with Meredith to produce branded media for over a decade. What about magazines that are published independently by technology-industry publishers that are only sold to those who use a specific software or hardware platform?They are independent, but sell through the channel of a branded product.

What’s more, what’s so paradigm shifting about this business deal: Time Inc. assumes all financial risk for a magaize that it names “All You” that is an obvious salute to the Wal-Mart slogan, “Always.” Time Inc. offers the product to Wal-Mart at a price-point Wal-Mart directs them to charge. Time Inc. offers Wal-Mart exclusive distribution of the product. Time Inc. allows (unless they want to clarify this) Wal-Mart the ability to mark up the product for a greater margin than practically any other item in the store. Time Inc. allows (unless they want to clarify this) Wal-Mart the opportunity to return all unsold product for a full refund.

I could go on, but I’m outta here.

    When I was a grasshopper reporter, I railed (usually with foot upon a brass rail) against the cluelessness of editors, who had heard a fifth hand version of a story (usually while their own feet were planted upon said brass rail), and the next day conveyed a further garbled version to a reporter to pursue. I think the parlor game version, only slightly less well paid, is called Refrigerator. This sounds suspiciously like the reporter, having sighted a press release, doing a complete sell job on the editor, who is even less knowledgeable and eager for the always new thing. There are very, very few new things, as someone said about 3 millennia ago, no doubt ripping off someone equally ancient. But the media game turns upon the premise that there never has been a story on 7 ways to rip your abs, or drop that extra 10 kilos of cellulite – at least, never since last issue. New sells.

Investigation Started Against Kazakh President's Son-In-Law

Rakhat Aliev (Public domain) ASTANA, May 23, 2007 (RFE/RL) -- Kazakhstan's Interior Ministry said today that a criminal investigation has started into allegations that Rakhat Aliev, the son-in-law of President Nursultan Nazarbaev, kidnapped a bank official, RFE/RL's Kazakh Service reported.

Relatives of two officials from Nurbank told RFE/RL earlier this year that Aliev had kidnapped the two officials and beat them to force them to sell the building housing the bank's headquarters.

Aliev was relieved of his post of first deputy foreign minister and made ambassador to Austria after allegations surfaced about the abduction and beatings.

7 Late Quick Takes

One of the hardest things about leaving LA will be saying goodbye to my favorite coffee shop. Oh Balconi you have been so good to us!! They do siphon coffee and have arguably the best latte on the westside.

So any of you readers that hail from Houston need to send me your coffee shop recommendations.

Before we even got out of bed on Tuesday, Jacob and I got in a spat over changing the first and ripest diaper of the day. Long story short: let's just say I lost the rock paper scissors game and lit into him as I carried our smellybutt offspring to the changing table. Jacob then made breakfast, converted Jake's crib to a toddler bed, and went to the DMV. Afterwards he brought me home a cup of Balconi.

I said: "You realize this makes me the worst wife in the world."
He said: "Why do you think I did it?"

My banjo broke recently. A tiny piece of plastic that holds a string in place popped off. Handyman Huz was SURE he could fix it. I wasn't so keen on him (i. e. almost forbid him from) taking a drill to the old girl but he was adamant about not paying someone else to do it. And a few youtube videos and one call to the manufacturer later and we've got this:

That's my banjo neck with a flat head screw in it. It's very cool. I know. And it seems to be holding tune.

Not pictured: gloating husband.

UPDATE: Big boy bed - Good News

So far nighttime has gone pretty swimmingly (knock on wood). I was worried about early wake ups and him crawling into our bed, but yesterday morning he got up at 5:30, walked over to our bed, and watched us sleep for 30 seconds before crawling back to his bed and sleeping till almost 7. I was lying in bed completely still, feeling like I'd just witnessed a small miracle.

UPDATE: Big boy bed - Bad News

How do/did you teach your toddler to put himself down for naps in a bed?  Right now the process is taking an average of 2 hours. I'm not a nazi about it, but I do like me a little bit of a sleep schedule...And this new transition has turned our beautiful summer afternoons into nightmarish nap debacles.

Yesterday, I tried the don't engage and keep putting him back in bed method which quickly became the best game ever. He just started laughing and running back to the bed by himself whenever I came into the room. So I stopped that game after half an hour.

Then I tried the fine just play in the room until you fall asleep wherever you end up falling asleep method. But he just played for an hour. Once I checked on him after a suspiciously quiet five minutes and found him having somehow retrieved my sewing box from a super high shelf and set himself up on the floor poking his fingers with needles.

So yeah. Desperate McDesperate over here.

- 5 -
After the hell of naptime though we have teatime which is kind of the greatest. I'm not big into letting Jake snack. Mostly because we don't keep snack foods around and so snacks always require some effort on my part, but also because I like Jake to be good and hungry at mealtimes. But recently we've been having a snack with tea in the afternoon. The kid needs a little something to get him from lunch to dinner and I need a little something to get me from naps to night night so tea time it is.

We sit and I ask him questions and he tells me stories about falling down in the ocean.

Pregnancy. Want to know something fun about my pregnancies? It's not gross at all. (Actually that's a lie.)

I get these lovely little things called cherry angiomas, and I always have. They're genetic or something and plenty of people get them. Just little collections of capillaries under your skin like red dots and sometimes they get a little raised. Well, you know how the pregger's blood volume like doubles or whatever? When I was pregnant with Jake, I was blessed with about FIFTY new angiomas. It wasn't cool at all, but the WORST part was that two of them morphed into pyogenic granulomas: a pea-sized collection of blood vessels that balloons up out of your skin, grows and grows, and bleeds whenever you touch it (here's a pic for the strong-stomached). Fun, I know.

When I went to have it removed at the dermatologist's office, he walked in, took one look at my head, and lit up like I'd handed him a Christmas present. He told me he'd only ever seen one on another pregnant woman in his 25 years of practice. I felt special. And by that I mean I felt like a freak.

Also. This is the smile-face Jake dons whenever he notices that someone is taking his picture.

You can offer condolences in the combox.

Happy Saturday!

Big Boy Bed and Belly Pics

18 June 2013

In the wake of a love story that went viral thanks to Grace, I welcome all you new readers and apologize that we are now returning to the regular programming of not that much of interest is going on around here.

So we'll talk about baby sleep habits. Huzzah! Babies who don't sleep! Empathy train!

If you've read this blog for awhile you know that it took us a long time to get Jake to sleep through the night. I think living in a one bedroom apartment hurt our sleep training efforts, and "sleeping through the night" at its best (from 13-20 months) looked like sleeping till 5:30 and kicking around in our bed until 6:30 at which point we'd kick him out of bed and he'd reek havoc on the living room until one of us finally dragged ourselves out of bed and started tending to him. And that blessed routine would get royally screwed up by ANYthing: travel or teeth or whatever. Then we would coddle the night-waker a couple times and then the night wakings would increase and we'd find ourselves back in hard core sleep training mode...again. At least for the past few months he'd been sleeping till 7, and we were patting ourselves on the back until last week.

We're kind of textbook parents so you should probably be taking notes.

Jake learned how to climb out of his crib months ago. This was a crib Jacob basically built, so we just dropped the mattress to avoid any further thumps in the middle of the night. Then we had to drop it again. And again. And again. At which point it couldn't get any lower without the mattress being lower than the bars. And last week the inevitable happened: our little climber conquered crib Everest and nighttime and nap time rituals flew out the window to the tune of miserable toddler and more miserable parents.

Yesterday after putting him back in his crib eight times at naptime, he was finally quiet. I peeked in and found him like this:

I was torn between congratulating myself and feeling completely guilty.

So apparently we're late to the toddler bed train. I had NO intention of transitioning Jake to a toddler bed before the move, but circumstances have slapped us in the face - they have a way of doing that - and this morning we finally bit.

Jake is much more excited about his "bid boy bed" than I am.

With my luck he will force me to potty train him the same week his little sister is born because I'm not interested in cracking that pandora's box until baby girl is like four months old.

I have to go be a mother now because Jake is tired of playing "fetch the bobby pin."

But I will leave you with some preg pics because I'm on the ball and thought you guys needed some 22 week photos:

baby 2 week 22
And I will FLAP this even if I'm two days late because that was my church outfit on Sunday, or it was until my shoes broke. Classy classy classy like always.

The Love Story Pt. 2

13 June 2013

So at the end of yesterday's post, I left you in the cap bar during a crucial five minutes when I'd realized both that I was falling for Jacob and that he had just started dating someone else.

But it was just as well. I met Jacob's bubbly new girlfriend from Notre Dame, and told myself I wasn't jealous at all when I would see them walking around campus holding hands. My boyfriend and I got back together and spent the rest of the semester on again and off again.

That spring semester of our Junior year Jacob ran for Student Government President. I was pretty surprised because it seemed so unlike him. Sure - he'd been active on campus and in student government, but it still surprised me, in a good way. As a concerned member of student government, he had asked several classmates who he thought were qualified to run for SG president, they all declined, and the last one turned the question around and asked Jacob why he wasn't running himself. So Jacob thought about it and did it.

And he did it right.

He threw himself into the campaign. There were posters of him all over campus. They were witty and funny with the perfect amount of self-deprecation/adulation. I couldn't dig up the actual campaign posters, but I did find some of the photos he used for them to help you get a picture of it.

Fine. He didn't use this last one, but it would've fit the essence.
And the way-too-self-conscious-to-ever-do-something-like-that me...well, I just loved it. I was so proud of him. I wore his pin for weeks. And he won. (Of course he won!)

I remember toward the end of that semester I called him to get his apartment number because we were taking a final the next day and had decided to study together. We stayed on the phone and chatted idly as I wound my way through the shady apartment complex. Talking with him came so easily. We had a connection and a naturalness when we were together that I was beginning to get tired of ignoring. I turned a corner and saw him, but he didn't see me. He was sitting on a stairwell, all lank, elbows resting on his knees, one hand holding the phone and the other rubbing the top of his head as he stared at the ground. My heart lodged in my throat, and I paused and watched him as he chatted with me. I stood there marveling at the feelings I had for this character even though he was dating somebody and I was (I think?) dating someone else too. I'll never forget that image of him. I'll never forget how I stalled in the dark so the moment wouldn't end.

Summer finally came, and I headed off to Chicago to work the girls version of the same program Jacob had worked the previous summer. And guess who I'd be working with: Jacob's girlfriend. (Ready for the drama? You know it. Not really.)

By the time the program started in July, Jacob and his girlfriend had broken up. But the awkwardness wasn't averted: she and I were living in the same house, and she was like the queen bee of the program. Jacob was working the boys program again across town. I had no idea if she knew about Jacob and my "history" since she was sweeter than sweet to me. Turns out she knew about all of it because his lingering feelings for me were instrumental in their break-up. He hadn't told her that, but she'd figured it out. She also knew that nothing "real" had ever happened between us. I found all this out in a late night heart to heart after which we were fast friends. Perhaps it was one of those "keep your enemies closer" situations, but she was all around a pretty dear soul, and we genuinely got along well.

She didn't know that I had feelings for Jacob, but that was something I hardly knew myself. I wasn't surprised that he still had feelings for me, but I was very happy to hear it. But since I wasn't a boyfriend stealer, for the rest of the summer program I had to keep up the farce that I wasn't falling in love with my friend Jacob.

Jacob and I still managed to hang out casually a few times that summer. We ran into each other at a coffee shop once and spent the afternoon chatting away about various things including the end of our respective relationships.  Another afternoon his sister - wily one that she is - invited me on a picnic with them.

When we got back to UD senior year things heated up rather quickly. We started hanging out all the time, and it was awesome. Tons of flirtation and dollar theaters and late night conversations and stolen kisses.

I loved it all, but I was squeamish about dating. I'd successfully ended my other relationship only a few short months before, and I wasn't interested in jumping into another one. And I was scared. I didn't trust my feelings for Jacob, and I didn't want to hurt him. I'd spent years convinced that he was just a friend, and I was afraid this new affection would disappear as quickly as it had appeared. So we trotted around the idea of "dating" for a couple of months.

One Saturday in September, he took me to UD's 50th Anniversary Gala, and afterwards we were hanging out and he showed me this rock. It was about the diameter of a quarter, grey and smooth. He told me the story of this rock. On a trip to Croatia during his semester abroad sophomore year, he'd picked this up at the Marian shrine at Medugorje. (Neither of us were Catholic but incidentally joined the RCIA program together our Senior year.) So he was praying on the mountain and picked up this rock. As he tells it, he was praying for me while holding this rock...and he was praying for me, that is, praying that we would end up together. It was rainy and cold and he made his way down from the shrine and by the time he got to the bottom he noticed that he'd held this rock so tight it was now warmer than his hand. So he carried it everywhere, all over Europe, and had kept it with him for three years. This rock had signified his hope for me, his hope for us. He told me he wanted us to be together, he always had, and he wanted me to have this rock, unless we couldn't be together, in which case he wanted to keep it.

I held the rock in my hand for a couple of minutes. I turned it over in my hands. I couldn't believe such a thing existed, a little incarnation of how much he cared about me. After a few minutes, I handed the rock back to him, and we sat in silence. I was too afraid to make a commitment to him and his feelings for me were too strong to ask for anything less. He took me home, and we didn't see each other for a few days.

But we couldn't really stay away from one another and within a few days he'd started coming around again. Fast forward a month and we'd fallen back into our old habits of hanging out all the time, and one Friday night we had a frustrating conversation that ended with him getting out the rock and handing it to me and telling me he never wanted to see it again.

And finally. Finally. This got through.

I looked up at him and saw in his face that he was ready to give up on me. It suddenly all made sense, and I could see the narrative of our relationship. He was the nice guy in the show that everyone wants the jerk-girl to notice even though she doesn't deserve him, and I was the jerk-girl who was happy to leave the guy hanging, so long as he stuck around. And everyone knows in that narrative what's truly at risk, and it's not that he won't get her. He's swell, and he will find someone better if this girl is too stupid. The real risk is that SHE will miss out on him.

I looked up into the face of someone whose conversation and input I valued as much as any friend I'd ever had; someone who made me feel more like myself when I was with him than I did when I was alone; someone who had cared about me undaunted for so long. I took that rock, and I kissed him long and good. And I haven't stopped kissing him since.

This was us at our Senior Formal
The rest of our dating relationship was not without tedious bumps, but that night was the pivoting point. Perhaps someday I will tell our engagement story, but I think I will give you all a break for now. This certainly is a good enough stopping place, and I should probably seize the opportunity for all of our sakes.

Well, one last thing.

I lost the rock. A few years ago. I don't remember how or when exactly. Somewhere between moving to Irving or Rome or New Jersey or LA, I lost it. When I realized it was gone, I felt sick and went to Jacob sobbing. Very entertained by the amount of emotion I was displaying, he looked at me and said:

"Katie, it was just a stupid rock."

If you still need more gushing: I wrote our Engagement Story Here

The Love Story Pt. 1

12 June 2013

Today is Jacob's and my fourth anniversary and in honor of that I wanted to post our story. I started writing it months ago, but I always felt a little weird about posting it. And I still do. But I SO love reading other people's stories that I felt that it was only fair to share ours.

FRESHMAN YEAR (in which we don't date)

Jacob and I met in college at the University of Dallas during Freshman Orientation.

I was bumming a ride to the Super Walmart with a buddy of mine and so was he. My friend was very pretty, and he was SO crushing on her. (He admits to this crush, but assures me it only lasted for three days.)

By the end of our Walmart trip we were friends enough to sit at the same cafeteria table, stop and chat around campus, sit next to each other in class, etc. But Jacob had lots of friends on campus. His older brother had plowed the way for him to be in with the upperclassman. He was a social butterfly.

I'm not very good at making friends, I'm better at making friends. I'm like a robot: Make close friends. Share all secrets. Die for them. So I had my little clan, and I would occasionally hang out with other people, one of whom was Jacob Rhodes.

Eating Snow
Apr 13, 2013_7

Pretty soon into first semester Jacob began developing feelings for me, but he was quiet about them because he knew I didn't reciprocate them, and as heartless as it sounds he was right.

Jacob was my friend. I didn't feel an ounce of chemistry between us. But as my friend, he was awesome.

He was infinitely interesting. Evey week I'd find out some new astonishing detail about his childhood. Like how he spent his junior year of high school living with his horse'n'buggy Mennonite relatives in Kentucky sans electricity. Or how he'd grown up on Maui and literally lived in a tent on a beach while his stepdad did accupuncture on horses. Or how his family had followed a guru half way around the world before his hippy mother returned to the Catholicism of her roots. To a little girl who'd lived in one house in one town of 6824 people her whole life, Jacob Rhodes was totally exotic.

Our friendship grew, but no romantic feelings were mine. Talking with some of my girlfriends one day freshman year, I told them the kind of love story I wanted to have. I said that I wanted to one day wake up and realize that I'd fallen in love with my best friend. But that wasn't very simple because for that to truly happen, the friend would have to be just that, a friend. He couldn't be someone I already had feelings for. So I sat there perplexed because, as delightful as it sounded, this plan automatically excluded all of my current crushes. And then I said: "That would be like me falling in love with Jacob Rhodes, and that would never happen."

I said this to make a point. Not to tempt Cupid. You see, as far as I was concerned, Jacob and I were just friends. He took me to Spring Formal freshman year. But we were just friends. We wrote letters over the summer and over the next year when we spent alternating semesters abroad. But we were just friends. We talked a lot. We talked about important things, family and faith and dreams and heartaches. But we were just friends.

SOPHOMORE YEAR (when we still don't date)

Not much happened sophomore year except for vaguely staying in touch since he spent that fall in Rome and I spent the spring. Summer after that year though Jacob finally told me how he felt about me. Never mind that we basically hadn't seen each other that year because of studying abroad or the fact that I was dating someone else or the fact that he was about to spend eight weeks bunking with my boyfriend in Chicago at a summer program they were both working. Never mind any of those things. I let him down easily enough I think, but our "friendship" was ruined.

We didn't talk at all that summer, but whenever I talked to my boyfriend he would frequently update me on Jacob-happenings since they were living together. Jacob was over singing and jamming with some of the guys. Jacob was out smoking on the fire escape.  Jacob was in the street doing some stylized photo shoot with some friends for a wedding gift. This photo shoot actually.

midtown pic

There was one story my boyfriend told me that stood out from the rest.

All the guys from the summer program were on a rafting trip one weekend, and Jacob, his brother John, and my boyfriend wanted to do some cliff-jumping. After a few hours they came upon the perfect spot, the cliff was high and the water was deep. The three of them made the treacherous trek to the top and just before jumping, my boyfriend stopped them. He was a city boy - a brave city boy but still a city boy - and he was a little spooked by the extremity of what they were about to do. He said he couldn't stop thinking about how all the people who get paralyzed from cliff-jumping have the moment - this moment - right beforehand when they are just fine. So he asked the Rhodes boys if they wanted to say a prayer with him before they all made the precarious leap. The three of them bowed their heads, and my boyfriend led them in a prayer. Immediately after the "Amen," Jacob tore himself from the huddle and flew off the cliff with a holler.

This story still means so much to me as I reflect back on Jacob's and my beginnings. Jacob was so...fun. I didn't drink, I made straight A's, and I lived for academic recognition. Jacob was goofy and not very academically inclined and had this recklessness that I found endearing and refreshing, but he wasn't boyfriend material. The guy I was dating was a philosophy major and was going to law school and was completely boyfriend material. (Or so I thought...he's now a monk.)

JUNIOR YEAR (when something almost happened)

Junior year I was plagued with school and a rocky dating relationship, and Jacob was determined to get over me. We hardly spoke. He even transferred out of a class because I was in it.

In January - on a Thursday - I broke up with my boyfriend. The following Tuesday I was at the cappuccino bar on campus when I heard Jacob's voice behind me, and I got butterflies.

I was shocked. The unexpected jolt had me glaring at my stomach and reminding my jittery insides that that was Jacob Rhodes. I was in a very confusing place in life, but I knew one thing: I didn't feel that way about Jacob Rhodes.

He walked over to me. Word wasn't out that I'd broken up with my boyfriend, and Jacob had hardly talked to me all of Junior year, so I knew he wasn't making a move, but there he was sauntering over in all his lanky glory and my stomach was in a knot. He sidled up to me and asked how I was doing. We made small talk for a couple of minutes before - in all the delicious little twists of fate that make up these types of love stories - he said excitedly: "So I have a friend coming into town for Groundhog this weekend, and I can't wait for you to meet her."

And there it was. My puppy love Jacob had gone and found himself a girlfriend who wasn't me.

And I'll cruelly leave you on the edges of your seats till tomorrow.

How will it all end?!?

Answer: you already know the answer, and it's babies.

Once Upon a Time

01 June 2013

Jake has recently become obsessed with story-telling. He asks for stories every night before bed and at naptime. Specifically "ocean stories" preferably involving big lady bugs and/or "elephant stories." If you tell him a story he will snuggle into your arms and his eyes will be wide with all the imagining in his little blond head.

I hardly recognize my high-energy, high-needs toddler in these moments, and for one of the first times as a parent I feel that don't-outgrow-this-ever tug.

Untitled Untitled

I come from a family of storytelling. My dad is a storyteller. As kids we would request the same stories over and over. The one where Uncle Allan saved Dad from drowning. The one where he was learning to ride a bike. The one where he didn't fall down at the water-ski show but the snooty girl did.

I grew up without the chip that said you were only supposed to tell a story once. I remember as a little girl the first time someone criticized me because I was telling a story I had told before. I was perplexed. It was a GOOD story. Didn't they want to hear it over and over?

My siblings and I all gather around good story tellers like you would around a warm fire on a cold night. We request stories we've heard before. We get a little anxious when crucial details are left out or not poised correctly. It's perhaps my favorite thing about my family of origin. Family get togethers rarely involve big planned activities, they instead revolve around big meals and people sitting around the table afterwards listening to stories.

While training for the last marathon we ran, we briefly kept a blog called Ramsay Reruns. Distance running in my family always involves stories. And we rerun the same stories often. Distance running is also a source of story, and we vaguely attempted to catalog it in the blog. If you have a minute and click on over, you won't regret it. There are some treasures.

I suppose I love Jake's story-obsession because it reminds me of my family. This is important when my son is basically my husband's clone - except for his nose which can put up a Ramsay nostril flare with the best of us.

For Christmas this year, we received a hand-carved Inuit sculpture from a family friend.

It's called The Storyteller. After making the trek, from Portland safely tucked in a shoe, The Storyteller now sits on a shelf in our living room watching us and taking in our daily activity.

He's very mysterious. I like him very much. I don't imagine he'll be telling us many stories, but I hope through the years he and Jake get to listen to dozens and dozens.

In other news. I've been trying to revamp my 2 year old cloth diaper stash via the DIY route. I've made one cover so far. I proudly suited Jake up in it and promptly texted a picture to Jacob.

Immediately after the photo. Jake started fussing and saying, "OUCH! OUCH! TOO SMALL!" He then tore it off and ran onto the porch.

So, yeah. In the words of the new phrase Jacob and Jessie's husband recently taught my son:

Nailed it.

Swift Energy Resumes Some Drilling Operations in Louisiana

Bayou Couba Field
(Click to Enlarge)
Swift Energy Company says it has resumed some of its drilling operations in Lake Washington and completed some initial physical assessments of damage to its facilities and equipment, with repairs underway, in its Lake Washington Field in Plaquemines Parish and Bay de Chene Field in Jefferson and Lafourche Parishes. Work crews were mobilized to both fields last week to physically inspect the facilities and infrastructure. Numerous minor repairs are underway and must be completed before production can be resumed in Lake Washington and Bay de Chene. Restoration of production in Bay de Chene may take longer primarily because the Company is focusing on Lake Washington.

Logistics and communications in the area have been hampered in the early stages of this repair work but are improving. Swift Energy anticipates that after initially identified repairs are completed, additional repairs may be needed prior to or as the facilities are restarted.

How to Be More Like Virgin Airlines

I wish more airlines were like Virgin Airlines.

The planes are sleek and technology enabled, the food is delicious, your first checked bag is free, ticket prices are competitive, and their employees make you feel like a VIP, even when you’re not in first class. From their swanky, lounge-inspired check in area, to entering the plane’s violet-lit cabin with calm synthesized music, they provide a travel experience that’s unparalleled.

Since Virgin is significantly different from other airlines, it sets them apart from their competitors, making them the clear choice whenever I travel.

So why aren’t more airlines like Virgin? Because it’s easier and safer not to be different and  just say you are.

The same goes for companies in every industry.

If you look at your company’s website and then compare it to your competitors, you will probably see similar claims, wording and maybe even design. Most likely after a closer look, you’ll realize that you’re not different, you’re all essentially the same.

At first, this may seem like a disadvantage, but it’s actually a huge advantage.

If you can find the ways you’re different and then emphasize them, you will undoubtedly stand out and eventually be the clear choice because you sound, look and feel fresh to consumers, who are constantly faced with more of the same.

This is also an important lesson in your career. Many employers want someone to stand out for a position to make their decision easier. Although it may seem hard to determine what makes you different, if you have peers in a similar position or industry, look at how they’re presenting themselves. If you start to see a collective objective, job history, or skillset, think about how you can demonstrate your own value in a different way, or think about what you offer that they don’t.

Whether you’re promoting your company or yourself, strive to be different.  Like Virgin, if you stand out, you’ll position yourself as the only clear choice.

How are you different?

 Rita Emmett's 2015 Anticrastination Tip Sheet
September 2015
The Anticrastination Tip Sheet
From Rita Emmett
Author of The Procrastinator's Handbook and
The Clutter-Busting Handbook
Manage Your Time To Reduce Your Stress

“The only kind of clothes you should have in your closet are clothes that fit you, clothes you look great in, and clothes that garner you tons of compliments when you wear them. Don’t have 'wish' clothes in your closet. Those clothes exist for only one reason: to mock you.” ~~ Peter Walsh

If you don’t have enough room for all your stuff, you don’t need more room, you need less stuff. ~~ Rita Emmett, The Clutter-Busting Handbook

Ask yourself “If I were shopping right now, would I buy this? ~~ The Clutter-Busting Handbook

Anything you cannot relinquish when it has outlived its usefulness possesses you, and in this materialistic age a great many of us are possessed by our possessions.
~~ Peace Pilgrim (Mildred Lisette Norman)

Message from Rita

Dear Readers,
Is your closet so jam-packed that you can move a hanger only a quarter of an inch (if that much)? Did you ever notice that when your closet is that crowded, you wear the same 8 to 12 outfits over and over?

BUT once you clear out the clothes you never wear, you not only discover  great items that you forgot you had, but you also are then able to wear everything in your closet, not just the same things repeatedly.

Many people say with the forgotten clothes they discovered, it feels as if they went on a fun shopping spree.. without spending a penny.

When you decide to attack your closet, here are:

  1. Pack a bag of clothes to donate. Then let the bag sit for days …weeks … months.
    TIP: I used to do the same thing … and felt pitiful and pathetic every time I walked past that bag. If you can’t get yourself to bring it to where it belongs, ask someone to help you …. Simply by taking your bag away.
  2. No handy clothes hamper so you smash dirty (sweaty?) clothes back into the closet and when you need to wear it … it’s not wear-able.
    TIP: um… maybe a box or small clothes hamper near the closet?
  3. Keep clothes you never wear that need repair because you will “fix it” later.
    TIP: If it’s been hanging there for six months or more and you STILL haven’t fixed it, become a big, strong warrior and either fix it today or get rid of it.
  4. Keep clothes you never wear that are out-of-style because they might come back in style …some day.
    TIP: Seriously?? Do you think IF that style came back, it would be the same as before? Has that EVER happened?
  5. Keep clothes you never wear because you might need them as a costume… some day.
    TIP: If you truly do wear costumes to parties, on stage, or … um … I have no idea where else…either pack away in a “Costume Box” or donate to a theater. But DON’T let them take up valuable closet space.
  6. Keep clothes you never wear because they bring back memories.
    TIP: Put all your “Happy Memory” items in a pile. Since our memories are in our hearts and minds, see if you can get rid of most of them and still enjoy the memory.
    If you absolutely HAVE to keep them, pack them away in a box. Better yet…take pictures and keep them on your computer.
  7. Keep clothes you never wear because you are going to lose weight and wear them again.
    TIP: Ah… the joy of living in a unicorn rainbow-filled world. Now come back to reality and look at those old, outdated, faded clothes.
    Keep a few (very few) things you absolutely love and look fabulous in, and donate the others so someone can wear them before they are certified as antiques.
  8. No organization -- so your shoes are jumbled all over and you are constantly searching for mates.
    TIP: Get rid of the ones you never wear and organize the rest with a system of either boxes or by making or buying a shoe organizer.
  9. No organization -- so you are constantly rummaging through everything on a quest for what you hope to wear.
    TIP: Group them. Either put all shirts together, slacks together, etc.
    Or all professional clothes on one side and “grubbies” on the other.
    Or color code them.
    Not only does this help you find what you want, but if might help you to decide NOT to buy that 18th pair of black slacks.
  10. No organization -- so your clothes are wrinkled and all smashed together.
    TIP: Try to figure out a way to hang one bar above another so you have a “two-tier” system for hanging clothes. If this is beyond you, no need to feel like a Worthless Worm. Simply review the previous tips and pick one thing to begin with. OR read The Clutter-Busting Handbook for more help.

Did you notice that some of the above “Mistakes” began with “Keep clothes you never wear…?” Shouldn’t that be a tip-off to you?? If you never wear them, THEN WHY ARE YOU KEEPING THEM???
Sorry for yelling, I just wanted to make sure that thought got securely crammed into your mind.
