In 2017, Flynt offered a $10 million reward for evidence that would lead to Trump’s impeachment, and in 2019, Larry Flynt Publications sent a Christmas card to some Republican congressional members that showed Trump lying dead in a pool of blood, with the killer saying: “I just shot Donald Trump on Fifth Avenue and no one assassinated me” — a reference to Trump’s boast that he could commit such a killing and wouldn’t lose votes.

In our urban and suburban houses what should we do without cats?

In our ships, however, the rats oft set them at defiance; still they are of great service. How wonderfully patient is the cat when watching for rats or mice, awaiting their egress from their place of refuge or that which is their home! How well Shakespeare in Pericles, Act iii., describes this keen attention of the cat to its natural pursuit! A slight rustle, and the fugitive comes forth; a quick, sharp, resolute motion, and the cat has proved its usefulness.

Porn purveyor Larry Flynt, who built Hustler magazine into an adult entertainment empire while championing First Amendment rights, died Wednesday.

He was 78.

Flynt had been in frail health and died of heart failure at his Hollywood Hills home, said his nephew, Jimmy Flynt Jr.

Advertisement Skip Ad From his beginnings as an Ohio strip club owner to his reign as founder of one of the most explicit adult-oriented magazines, Flynt constantly challenged the establishment and became a target for the religious right and feminist groups.

Flynt scored a surprising U.S. Supreme Court victory over the Rev.

Jerry Falwell, who had sued him for libel after a 1983 Hustler alcohol ad suggested Falwell had lost his virginity to his mother in an outhouse.

He owned a video production company, various websites, a Los Angeles-area casino and 10 Hustler boutiques.

He also licensed the Hustler name to independently owned strip clubs.

His publishing and financial successes were offset in equal measure by controversies and tragedies.

Advertisement 00:48 02:53 Shot by a sniper in 1978, Flynt was paralyzed from the waist down and used a wheelchair the rest of his life.

He fought battles with drug and alcohol addiction, and his fourth wife died of a heroin overdose.

His daughter, Lisa Flynt-Fugate, died in a 2014 car crash in Ohio at age 47.

With a fortune estimated at more than $100 million, Flynt spent his later years in the political arena.

When Gov.

Gray Davis was recalled by California voters in 2003, Flynt was among 135 candidates who ran to replace him.

He called himself “a smut peddler who cares” and gathered more than 15,000 votes.

A self-described progressive, Flynt was no fan of former President Donald Trump.

Before the 2016 election, he offered up to $1 million for video or audio recordings of Trump engaging in illegal or “sexually demeaning or derogatory” activity.

Flynt’s life was depicted in the acclaimed 1996 film “The People vs.

Larry Flynt,” which brought Oscar nominations for director Milos Forman and Woody Harrelson, who played Flynt.

mrjyn comment: quotes Elvis song lyric: 'i don't care' BarryHannah

This frisky pop confection finds Blackpink teaming up with American singer Selena Gomez. The five girls use a series of ice cream double entendres to send out mating calls and detail how they are different from the other females. I know that my heart can be so cold But I'm sweet for you, come put me in a cone Blackpink and Gomez are encouraging the guys to ignore their icy cool demeanors. Once they take a couple of scoops they will find they are loving and affectionate.

The song's icy metaphors not only have a sensual connotation but also allude to the singers' wealth. Ice on my wrist, yeah, I like it like this Get the bag with the cream The girls are wearing diamond encrusted watches (ice is a slang word for diamonds). "Get the bag with the cream" refers to a bag loaded with cash.

The song is Blackpink's second hookup with a major American pop star in 2020, following their Lady Gaga collaboration, "Sour Candy." Both songs use sexy food analogies to represent the enticing love that the girls are ready to give out.

Frequent Blackpink collaborators, the Korean Teddy Park and the American Bekuh Boom, are the primary writers. Park wrote the main melody while Boom was in Korea. She then wrote the lyrics over his tune, incorporating a series of sexy ice cream-related play on words. The other credited writers are Ariana Grande, her go-to collaborators Victoria Monet, and Tommy Brown, Mr. Franks, Selena Gomez and the Korean producer 24.

The retro-tinged video finds Gomez driving a pink ice cream truck in a pinup sailor outfit. The four Blackpink girls all appear in a candy-coated frozen dessert fantasy land before ending the clip in an ice cream amusement park. Blackpink's scenes were filmed in South Korea, while the scenes featuring Gomez were shot in the US because of the coronavirus pandemic.

The song was birthed at a songwriting camp that producer Teddy Park asked Bekuh Boom to run for Blackpink's debut studio album. Boom asked Tommy Brown and Victoria Monét to come to the sessions at LA's Westlake Studio, and the pair brought Mr. Franks along with them. "Tommy had Franks pull up beats, and eventually Franks played the one that all of us started vibing to and decided to work on together," recalled Boom to Genius. "Victoria brought up the subject 'ice cream' and started humming melodies that we then started writing lyrics to together in the room. From that point on we had a great back and forth of ideas for the first half of the song that was done that night."

CARATTERISTICHE

INFO DAL WEB

L'opportunità per me di ascoltare un altoparlante EgglestonWorks è arrivata tramite il mio amico e collega, Marshall Nack. Alcuni di voi lettori a lungo termine potrebbero ricordare la recensione approfondita di Marshall dei Rosas di EgglestonWorks. Marshall e la sua adorabile moglie Lynn sono una coppia insolita in quanto entrambi sono audiofili. In realtà, sono l'unica coppia audiofila che conosco personalmente. Sono certo che il fatto che siano entrambi dei musicisti seri è in gran parte responsabile della loro capacità di ascoltare le gradazioni e i dettagli tonali molto fini con tanta facilità. Tra i suoi molti talenti, Marshall ha un'eccezionale capacità di dare voce a un sistema. Sembra sempre in grado di trovare la giusta miscela di componenti e accessori che si traducono in un sistema eccezionalmente ben bilanciato. Questo è molto più difficile da realizzare di quanto si possa pensare. Tuttavia, la natura rivelatrice dei diffusori EgglestonWorks è stata determinante nel raggiungimento dei suoi obiettivi sonori. Quando lo Stereophile Show è arrivato in città questa primavera, la stanza di EgglestonWorks era in cima alla mia lista delle visite obbligatorie. È stato lì che ho incontrato EgglestonWorks prez Jim Thomson e ho iniziato il mio primo ascolto con i Fontaines. So che hai tutti sentito che la qualità del suono agli spettacoli è generalmente piuttosto brutta. Mentre trovo che questo sia ampiamente vero, allo stesso tempo, puoi avere un'idea del potenziale sonoro di un prodotto, o come alla fine potrebbe funzionare in condizioni di casa. I Fontaines furono sistemati nella sala dell'home theater di Eggleston. Incluso con il display era un paio di sub-woofer dedicati. Secondo la letteratura aziendale, "il design di ciascun modello di altoparlante nella linea EgglestonWorks inizia con il midrange". Per le Fontaines, una coppia di 6 "polipropilene, i driver a doppio magnete gestiscono il midrange e il basso. Ognuno di questi driver ha una bobina da 3 "di diametro, che è stata ripetuta molte volte ma che ripete, come è vero, se il midrange non è corretto, di tutti gli altri è infruttuoso. Il tweeter ha una grande camera di smorzamento aperiodico che imita il caricamento infinito del diaframma. Il tweeter è collegato al crossover con un cappuccio e due resistori utilizzati come un L-pad. Un singolo set di morsetti è montato in un pannello incassato nella parte posteriore della sezione driver. Ho chiesto a Jim Thompson di utilizzare un singolo set di post di rilegatura in contrasto con la tendenza attuale di utilizzare post doppio. I driver sono direttamente collegati ai bind. Ovviamente, se un cliente è impostato su biwiring, questi diffusori possono essere dotati di doppio binding post su un ordine speciale.

I driver dei bassi e dei medi sono alloggiati in quello che EgglestonWorks descrive come una custodia con una linea di trasmissione quasi in trasmissione. Ciò si ottiene impiegando un materiale di imbottitura acustico specializzato noto come " Lastre di granito italiane legate a loro. Il risultato finale di questi sforzi è un recinto molto inerte che fornisce una risposta dei bassi molto migliore rispetto alle dimensioni ridotte dei driver. Dopo diverse conversazioni con Jim Thompson, quattro cartoni di dimensioni medie ma piuttosto pesanti arrivarono da EgglestonWorks. I cartoni contenevano il driver e le sezioni di base corrispondenti. Dovresti stare molto attento mentre imposti questi diffusori per non danneggiare la squisita finitura nera del pianoforte. L'immagine non rende in alcun modo giustizia a questi oratori. Devi davvero vederli di persona per capire cosa intendo. I Fontaines possono essere visti come uno di quei prodotti che rientrano nella categoria "audio come arte". Sono semplicemente belli. I Fontaines possono essere visti come uno di quei prodotti che rientrano nella categoria "audio come arte". Sono semplicemente belli. I Fontaines possono essere visti come uno di quei prodotti che rientrano nella categoria "audio come arte". Sono semplicemente belli. La vestibilità e la finitura sono proprio lì con il meglio che abbia mai visto.È ovvio per me che EgglestonWorks ha preso molta cura e ha fatto spese considerevoli nella progettazione e costruzione di questi contenitori. Una volta assemblati, gli altoparlanti danno l'aspetto di un monolitico sul pavimento. Le basi sono sabbia-fallibili e formeranno un recinto molto sostanziale. Vi consiglio caldamente di stabilirvi il posizionamento finale prima di riempire le basi di sabbia. Questi bambini sono abbastanza pesanti per cominciare; una volta riempito di sabbia, sarebbe quasi impossibile per la persona media muoversi da sola. Ho posizionato gli altoparlanti su una trapunta, quindi sui loro lati, per inserire i quattro bulloni che fissano le basi in posizione. Questo viene fatto attraverso un pannello di accesso nella parte inferiore della base. Mentre le punte fornite sono molto robuste, hanno un filo sottile e possono essere facilmente danneggiati se si è negligenti durante l'installazione. Il cofano del conducente è molto inerte quindi consiglierei molto se decidi di eseguire il test delle articolazioni.

Mi piace particolarmente il modo in cui hanno scelto di affrontare le griglie. Sono costruiti con un materiale molto puro montato su una sottile struttura in acciaio. Si collegano al pannello frontale mediante magneti che sono sepolti sotto il laminato di superficie. Questa disposizione rende il fissaggio delle griglie il più semplice possibile e ha funzionato bene per me. Mentre l'efficienza è elencata come quello che potrebbe sembrare un 87db piuttosto basso, non ho avuto problemi a raggiungere livelli di rottura del lease con l'amplificatore di potenza Bel Canto EVo. Però, Quando ricevo nuove attrezzature da recensire, inviterò spesso diversi amici non audiofili, accenderò il sistema e osserverò le loro reazioni. In ogni caso, le reazioni ai Fontaines iniziarono prima che il primo CD fosse nel cassetto ed erano sempre abbastanza positivi. Tutti sono stati presi con il loro aspetto sorprendente e il modo in cui si sono mescolati così facilmente nella stanza. Sono belli come sono discreti. Mentre è abbastanza ovvio dalle specifiche e dalla qualità dell'hardware utilizzato che EgglestonWorks costruisce i suoi diffusori con molta cura,

Come suonano? Dal momento che non ho la possibilità di eseguire alcuna misurazione sull'attrezzatura che ho per la revisione, posso solo dirti come si comportano nel mio sistema. Mentre credo che le misure abbiano il loro posto, difficilmente danno il quadro complessivo. Ci sono stati molti componenti che hanno misurato terribilmente, ma erano artisti stellari dal punto di vista sonoro, e viceversa. Hanno quella qualità trasparente che consente ad ogni strumento di occupare il proprio spazio, ma sempre con un naturale senso di proporzione all'interno del palcoscenico. Nessuna durezza o nervosismo ha mai accompagnato questa chiarezza. Ho notato anche una qualità semplice e costante del suono che lasciava che la musica scorresse in modo molto seducente. Piatti e campane hanno la giusta quantità di lucentezza e delicatezza e di nuovo, sembrano avere le giuste dimensioni. I tassi di decadimento per questi strumenti contribuiscono anche al senso del realismo. Hanno costantemente svelato i dettagli di basso livello che tra l'altro davano un senso reale delle dimensioni del luogo di registrazione. Con Miles Davis,Tipo di bluHo sempre messo in discussione il suono registrato del pianoforte, specialmente con molte delle vecchie registrazioni Blue Note. Proprio l'opposto è il caso della registrazione XRCD, in particolare con molte delle vecchie registrazioni Blue Note. Proprio l'opposto è il caso della registrazione XRCD, in particolare con molte delle vecchie registrazioni Blue Note. Proprio l'opposto è il caso della registrazione XRCD,Waltz for Debby del Bill Evans Trio [JVC XRCD VICJ-60141]. Qui le qualità tonali e la complessa struttura armonica del pianoforte sono presentate molto bene. Sono rimasto sorpreso dal senso di profondità con cui questi relatori mi hanno presentato. La mia stanza non collaborerà molto in quest'area, quindi questa è stata una sorpresa gradita. In effetti, è il migliore che ho sentito qui. Il riempimento del centro era azzeccato: i solisti erano un po 'più avanti di quanto io non fossi abituato, ma era di buon effetto. Nel complesso, ho trovato le capacità di imaging di questi diffusori di essere eccezionalmente buone. Per i miei gusti, Dal momento che il punto -3db è quotato a 55Hz, non mi aspettavo troppo dalle regioni inferiori, ma sono rimasto piacevolmente sorpreso da ciò che ho sentito. Ora non fraintendere, questi non sono gli altoparlanti per gli organi a canne o i fan del reggae. Per quel tipo di uscita dei bassi dovresti guardare molto più in alto nella linea EgglestonWorks. Ciò che è notevole in questo caso è la precisione del basso. Non è mai cupo; piuttosto, tende ad essere stretto e melodico. Quando eseguito male, il basso può oscurare gli elementi musicali nella gamma media inferiore. Il basso dei Fontaines non interferisce o oscura affatto il midrange. In altre parole, la fioritura della fascia bassa non viene a scapito della chiarezza del midrange. Per classica e buona parte del jazz, potresti essere abbastanza soddisfatto della fascia bassa delle Fontaines. Nel complesso, l'uscita dei bassi è stata molto meglio di quanto mi aspettassi. Lo scorso giugno Tim Shea ha scritto una magnifica recensione del Musse Audio Reference Two NF speakers. Li ho a portata di mano e farò una revisione di follow-up. Tuttavia, poiché sono nella stessa fascia di prezzo delle Fontaines, I Reference Twos, come i Fontaines, sono monitor bidirezionali. In questo caso, fornisci gli stand. Le differenze sonore colpiscono a causa della forza di ciascuna bugia alle estremità opposte dello spettro sonoro. Con un punto -3db di 35Hz e una frequenza di sintonizzazione della porta di 29Hz, non sorprende che i Reference Twos si approfondiscano. La parte bassa qui è stretta e melodica. Mentre i Fontaines non vanno così in profondità, Devo dire che il basso è un po 'più stretto e un po' più melodico dei Reference Twos. Tuttavia, i Fontaines ottengono sicuramente un cenno del capo per l'estensione del registro medio e superiore, dolcezza e ottima resa dei dettagli. Questi sono tratti sonori che sono un appuntamento fisso nella sala d'ascolto di Perry e in seguito sono venuto ad ascoltarli per tutto il tempo. In aggiunta a questo, c'è molta aria intorno agli strumenti con un tasso di decadimento molto buono. Alcuni potrebbero descrivere questi diffusori come neutri dal punto di vista tonale, tuttavia si desidera descrivere questa caratteristica. Io, d'altra parte, trovare la loro tonalità per essere leggermente sul lato caldo. Mi sta bene. Nel complesso, semplicemente si tolgono la via della musica. Etta James, Life, Love and The Blues [Private Label 01005-82162-2]: Questo è un CD che è un ottimo esempio del suono "Mussel Shoals". Ha una linea di basso sostenuta molto pesante durante molti tagli. Check-out " senza alcun segno di sovraccarico del conducente o altro pericolo. Dal basso superiore in su tutto va bene. La voce di Etta James arriva con la giusta quantità di morso e calore. Dal basso superiore in su tutto va bene. La voce di Etta James arriva con la giusta quantità di morso e calore. Dal basso superiore in su tutto va bene. La voce di Etta James arriva con la giusta quantità di morso e calore. Patricia Barber, Companion Il senso di immediatezza e presenza è tale che è possibile ottenere un'implicazione delle dimensioni della stanza senza alcun iper-dettaglio per intromettersi. Sul taglio "Usami" c'è un assolo di basso verticale che i Fontaines riproducono con tutte le trame e la ricchezza armonica in tatto. Signorina. La voce del barbiere ha una trama soffice che è abbastanza piacevole senza che i dettagli vocali siano mai esagerati. Non ho mai avuto l'impressione di poter vedere le sue tonsille. Con opere sinfoniche su larga scala, questi bambini continuano nella stessa vena. Mentre le loro capacità limitate di fascia bassa diminuiranno parte dello slam e del peso che i loro fratelli più grandi sono in grado di gestire, Per riassumere, la EgglestonWorks Fontaines può essere descritta come molto musicale. Mentre ti daranno tutti gli attributi che gli audiofili bramano, non sono mai eccessivamente analitici. Apprezzo molto le qualità dei medi che mantengono le mie sessioni di ascolto sul lato lungo. Mi fanno venire voglia di togliersi la roba da audiofili e semplicemente sedersi e godersi la musica. Mi trovo a tirare fuori CD dopo CD che non ho sentito da un po 'di tempo per ascoltare. Se ritieni di dover semplicemente avere quell'ultimo bit di uscita dei bassi, ricorda che i sottotitoli corrispondenti sono disponibili. palcoscenico sonoro totalmente coerente e la massima semplicità della presentazione musicale. Non ho mai sentito alcuna discontinuità tra basso, medi o alti. Erano sempre coerenti in questo senso. Questi diffusori sono di altissima qualità ed è necessario collegarli a ingranaggi di pari qualità a monte. Ovviamente lavoreranno con amplificatori economici, ma riveleranno rapidamente tutte le carenze e le deficienze del suono. Le Fontaines EgglestonWorks sono l'essenza del lusso. Mentre non possono essere considerati a buon mercato e sono in un campo affollato a questo punto di prezzo

Who Was Selena?--Who Was series

Justification

This was my first Who Was series book. I chose one about Selena for a few reasons. Not only is she well-known throughout the state of Texas, but the movie about her life is also incredibly popular. Selena is also a more modern figure than some of the other people profiled in this series, and I wanted to see how my recollection of her fame matched with the story. This series is one I hear about quite a bit at the library where I work, and its spinoff series about historical events are also checked out often.

Evaluation of the book

All the elements chosen and evaluated are based on the criteria laid out in Children’s Literature Briefly by Young, Bryan, Jacobs, and Tunnell.

Style & Language

The book starts out with a specific incident from Selena’s life before going back to her childhood. This is a good way to grab the reader’s interest and engage them with the subject. When biographies start from someone’s childhood, which is often the least interesting part of their life, authors run the risk of boring their readers before the narrative can begin. In this case, the audience is interested from the beginning of the book. Because the Who Was series is meant to appeal to a wide range of elementary-aged children, the sentences are brief, with a simple sentence structure.While that can make it somewhat boring for an adult, the rhythm of the text could help someone starting out in chapter books. The pronunciation guides after some Spanish words are helpful, although a complete list at the beginning or end of the book might be helpful for someone looking for a vocabulary list.

Design & Layout

This book is broken up by illustrations on almost every page, which is a good choice for a chapter book biography for this age range. These include depictions of Selena’s life, brand logos for television shows and record labels, and even a map of Texas marking different places Selena lived and traveled. There are also asides about important figures in Latin music, the lasting effects of Selena’s work, and even information on Tex-Mex food. These inserts provide readers with more information about how Selena fit into the worlds of music and culture, and they also serve the purpose of breaking up the chapter. If this is one of the first chapter books a child reads, giving them visual breaks is a good way to make the task seem less daunting.

Accuracy

While I am not an expert on Selena, I have known about her and her music for my entire life. I was interested to see how the book would handle some of the controversies around her music and her marriage, as well as the difficult topic of her murder. For the targeted age range, these were handled well, with simple facts and not much detail. The end of the book includes timelines of Selena’s life and world events that took place during her lifetime, helping readers to see where she fits into history, as well as a discography and a bibliography. While the book was overall accurate in its depiction of Selena’s life, it did seem to focus quite a bit on how “beautiful” and “mature” Selena looked, which seem like odd details to include in a biography for children.

Conclusion

While this wasn’t my preferred style of biography when I was in the target age range, I can see why the Who Was series is so popular. Even if it’s a quick read for a more advanced reader,this book provides information about the world around Selena and how that contributed to her success, something many books might fail to do. That being said, while I enjoy the information about Tejano and Latin music and the timeline to give readers context, the writing style and overall tone did not appeal to me. Aside from my personal taste, this is a biography from a popular series that kids will enjoy, and should definitely be purchased.

Selena Gomez in Disneyland California

Selena Gomez is samen met haar familie gespot in Disneyland California. Na het lanceren van haar nieuwe Netflix serie “13 reasons why“, en haar breakdown was Selena toe aan wat plezier, en waar is dat beter te vinden dan in Disneyland?

http://selenalife.nl/wp-content/uploads/2017/04/Selena-Gomez-at-Disneyland-California.mp4

De rust heeft Selena wel verdiend. Nadat Selena terugkwam uit haar rehab was ze nog even stil op social media. Steeds meer kwam Selena terug op social media, en steeds vaker werd Selena weer gespot. Door haar nieuwe relatie met The Weeknd heeft ze al meerdere trips over de wereld gemaakt, beginnend met een vakantie in Italië. Na haar vakantie met The Weeknd in Italië is Selena meerdere malen met The Weeknd meegegaan om zijn concert bij te wonen. Zo ook in Nederland! Naast haar rondreizen met The Weeknd, haar nieuwe Netflix serie en haar social media activiteiten is Selena ook nog altijd bezig waar ze goed in is. Haar nieuwe nummer “It ain’t me” slaat goed aan en is niet uit de toplijsten te krijgen. Ook speelt Selena in een nieuwe film “In Dubious Battle” die dit jaar te verkrijgen is op DVD.

Stars End #1

Stars End #1 Antarctic Press 2018 Written by Selena McDevitt & Larry Spike Jarrell Pencilled by Larry Spike Jarrell Inked by Bill Marimon & Larry Spike Jarrell Coloured by Alethea Von Holland & DK Boss 6,000 years ago, the Annunaki, visitors to Earth, departed with numerous animals as subjects for study and DNA experiments. Centuries in the future, these evolved beasts, collectively known as N'Naki, have created vast civilizations in the Sirius system, with humans serving as their worker bees. One group of N'Naki are given a pre-graduation duty: Scan a mining world of human workers that's fallen victim to a viral infection before the planet is demolished to stop the disease from spreading. But when a sixteen-year-old Annunaki girl turns up, the mission quickly becomes anything but routine. There are a few things that I found myself liking about this book. Now I have had my mind opened more lately to these anthropomorphic animal stories, more so when like this one they aren’t mean to be cute. These N’Naki are races of animal species and they are highly intelligent, trained in a myriad of disciplines and as we meet them here we see just how advanced they’ve become. Of course there are plenty of humans in space too but they are seen as slave labour, a race that breeds much too quickly and are inherently disposable. It really is a nice turn around from what we normally see. While humans are regarded highly they aren’t hunted either which is a fresh take all around. I like the way this book is structured. The opening page with the credits has a not so brief background on the idea for this series. it’s a great thing to read too since it really does help put everything into perspective and gives us a better understanding of how things got to where they are here. With that it’s easy to just jump into the story without having to worry about origins or needing backstory. This allows them to really let the story take centre stage and for some amazing characterisation start right away. While the uniforms and setting make me think of an alternate version of Star Trek with kids who have just graduated the Academy it really seems to fit with the whole overall attitude of the story at hand. I hadn’t seen that really when I was reading it but writing this it really jumps out at me so impressive is a very good word for how all this plays out. The ebb & flow of the story and how we see things start to play out here opens up this path of possibilities and it looks like the road less travelled may be the one they take but we’ll see. I love the interiors here. The linework is gorgeous and how it’s used to create those really nice crisp clean lines in the attention to detail is great to see. The colours too here are sensational, bright and vibrant and in three dimension holograms it definitely leaves an impact. There is something to be said for how lovely and bright the colours are making me think of the Saturday Mornings of my youth. The utilisation of the page layouts and how we see the angles and perspective in the panels shows a good solid eye for storytelling. The way that the backgrounds are utilised is also nice to see and really fleshes out the moments they are in and give us a nice sense of size and scope to the story. I love being surprised and kept on my toes and I am reading a story and that certainly happens here a number of times. There is a nice build-up of tension and we are left with a sense of dread by how the book ends. Antarctic Press has quietly been putting out some of the most interesting and well executed books and they run the gauntlet of genre’s and ages. Make sure your local comic shoppe is ordering these.

Beautiful Homes of Instagram Happiness has arrived! I honestly feel extra happy when I share a new “Beautiful Homes of Instagram” post with you. I find these posts are so helpful if you’re looking for inspiration because these talented homeowners are always full of incredible ideas and many DIY projects. Today, I am honored to feature Selena from @middlesisterdesign. She and her husband are a DIYers and I am sure your jaw will drop as much as mine did when you see all of the projects done in this house. I hope you guys have a great time and get some inspiration here to apply to your home! I am definitely sharing this post with my husband! “I am so honored to have our home featured on Home Bunch! When Luciane contacted to ask if she could feature it, I was quite shocked and beyond excited! To have our humble little home that we’ve poured our hearts and souls into displayed next to some of the most beautiful homes on Instagram is just such an incredibly exciting gesture. Thank you Luciane. And thank you all for visiting! Welcome to our home! A little intro to myself. I’ve had a passion for Interior Design and Décor for as long as I can remember. It was merely a “hobby” of mine for many years. Until 2 years ago I worked part time as a bank teller. One day my husband suggested that I pursue my dreams of having my own Interior Styling business. After a lot of deliberation, I decided to go for it and Middle Sister Design was born. I specialize, and take pride in being a more budget friendly, less complicated, savvy stylist for the homeowner who desires a well-dressed home without the large price tag. Simple, Smart and Savvy; that’s my motto! I began a Blog, have had much success with local clients and have loved every minute of it. (And have not once missed wearing heels to work, counting dirty money or trying to upsell. There’s still so much for me to learn and I have big plans for the future of my Blog and Business. When my husband and I decided to build our home nearly 10 years ago we had just been married less than a year. We had viewed many homes in the area’s “cookie-cutter” neighborhoods and while we were uncertain of exactly what we wanted, we knew these were not it. We decided to scour the internet for land as well as for house plans. My husband found a 2 ½ acre piece of land that was only 5 minutes from my childhood home and I found the house plans (we disagreed on LOTS of them before finding the “perfect” one.). We both liked the bones of the house plan I’d found, however there were many things we didn’t love and so we sought help from a local Architect and custom home building company. With their assistance, we made changes to much of the main floor plan. I would describe my design style as somewhat eclectic. Growing up in the South and in a more traditional style home, you will find a bit of it throughout my own. However, being a lover of trends, I do enjoy bringing pieces of trendy items into the mix. Neutral, natural, earth inspired elements are my favorite. My Grandparents lived on a farm and from my memories of spending the summers there stem an adoration for that lovely, cozy farmhouse feel. My take on modern farmhouse industrial and boho chic also play a part in this eclectic style of mine. I truly do have an appreciation for all the styles.” Beautiful Homes of Instagram We kept to the original plans for the exterior of the home aside from choosing much larger windows shown above as well as the Stacked Stone veneers from Eldorado Stone in the color Alderwood. We loved that stone so munch in fact that we decided to carry it over to the entire foundation all around the entire house. The siding is Vinyl in the color ivory and all gutter work and trim are vinyl as well in white. We have designed and installed all of the landscaping ourselves and while that is a job in itself, the toughest part is keeping the multitude of deer from eating all of our hard work. Porch Front Porch stain is James T Davis solid stain in the color Tree Bark. The swing is from Hayneedle and the wicker conversation chairs are from Pier 1. Rugs are from Target. Front Door Front door color is basic black exterior paint. Welcome Home! The front door opens to the Great Room which was actually 3 rooms on the original floor plan; Living Room, Kitchen and Dining Room. This, even on blue prints, looked incredibly cramped and we all agreed that an open concept would be a more unique and inviting look for this space. Another favorite unique feature of mine is the little “shelf” above the foyer’s close/master bedroom door. I chose to display the driftwood pieces my sister has collected from a nearby river for me over the years, knowing my love for it. Living room Sectional Sofa and chair in this space are the Ikea Ektorp Slipcover Series, both in Bleking White. DIY DIY Inspo: Bookshelves, side tables and coffee table were all built by my husband. Rug is Bleached Jute from Overstock. Fireplace We decided to take the fireplace all the way to the top of the high ceilings using the same stone used on the exterior – Stacked Stone veneers from Eldorado Stone in the color Alderwood. Paint Color Paint color for the entire main floor is Benjamin Moore HC-173 Edgecomb Gray. DIY Shiplap Kitchen The shiplap wall was added by us last year. We used 4×8 wood floor underlayment from Home Depot, cut into 6” strips and installed using liquid nails and a small brad nail gun, using nickels as spacers. It was such an easy project that creates such dramatic results. And best of all, incredibly inexpensive. Paint color is White. This open concept would require reconfiguring the entire kitchen layout which was tricky but in the end, we chose a unique island style and designed using Kraftmaid cabinets all the way to the ceiling to utilize every inch of this small space for storage as possible. Cabinets are solid maple in the color Biscotti. Dining room The table is a found item made from 100 year old barnwood. It was in bad shape when I found it but I put a little love into it and she’s as good as new. The bench at table, sideboard and industrial shelves were built by my husband. The two captain’s chairs are from Ikea. Rug is the bleached jute from World Market. Grasscloth shades are from JC-Penney. Doors The French Doors in the Dining Room were not a part of the original plan. In fact, there was only one small window here as well as in the kitchen area. The French Doors open to a large deck, also not part of the original plans. Landing Upstairs are two bedrooms and a full bath. The landing at the top of the stairs houses a chair that is a family heirloom. Another favorite space of mine. All flooring throughout the home is oak with the exception of two upstairs bedrooms. Neutral Bedroom Paint Color Our daughter is grown and no longer lives with us. When converting her bedroom into an office for myself, I wanted to keep a bit of “youth” to this room but also wanted it to be a place for guests of all ages to feel comfortable. I chose fun, on trend patterns and lots of textures for this space. The chair rail was installed when the home was built. Last year I installed the faux board and batten using 1 ½ inch lattice strips. Paint color on walls is Khaki by Valspar. Board and batten and all trim and doors are basic white paint. Simple. Bedding is from Pottery Barn and all furniture is the Ikea Hemnes series. Guest Bedroom The second bedroom has always been a guest bedroom but it too got the board and batten treatment last year. Wall paint color is also Khaki by Valspar. Bed & Bedding The bed is an antique, Amish made, chalk painted with Valspar chalk paint in the color Kid Gloves. French Provincial nightstand and dresser were mine as a child, painted the same as bed. Bedding is from various stores. I like to pay extra attention to detail as well as cost into the bedding of the guest beds. Linen, high quality cotton and extra down comforters are a great way to give that 4 & 5 star hotel feel. Master Bedroom The Master Bedroom layout is original to the plans. Of course, as mentioned before, with the exception of making those windows much larger. This is one of my personal favorite changes that we made. Paint Color Wall paint color is Benjamin Moore Edgecomb Gray HC-173. Shiplap Bed The shiplap bed, nightstands, bench and large mirror were built by my husband. The jute rug is from World Market. Bedroom Chair This slipcovered chair brings a relaxed feel to this farmhouse bedroom. Lamps are from Target. Antique Door Hung with barn door hardware, this salvage door adds so much character to the master bedroom. Master Bathroom When built our home we’d installed a jetted garden tub. Four years ago though, we decided to rip it out and replace with this Clawfoot Slipper Tub from Vintagetub.com. This is the Randolph Morris 67 Inch Cast Iron Slipper Tub. I cannot express how much I adore this tub. Also in this space, we designed a much larger window here than the original floor plans. One of my favorite pastimes during the snowy season is soaking here while watching the snow fall. Laundry room We reconfigured what was intended to be a mud room/powder room off of the kitchen area into a small powder room and laundry room. There were two reasons for this. One, taking square feet from this space allowed us to add them to the Master Bedroom’s Closet opposite the wall of this space. Two, making this space smaller meant there would be no place for an exterior entry door to enter the mudroom which worked well by adding a larger deck and doors in a different area, which I will describe below. We had decided earlier in the planning that a mud room was not necessary for us. The home has a full basement with garage. This is perfect for bringing in messes from long days of gardening or yard work. The industrial shelving were built by my husband. Powder room Here is the powder room. I decided to separate the powder room and laundry room with a pocket door which easily hides any laundry messes from potential unexpected guests- or when I simply want to “hide” it from myself! :). Towel ladder was built by my husband. Backyard Our backyard is currently getting a small makeover but I thought I’d share a photo of our firepit from last summer. I hope you enjoyed the home tour.

CELEBRATE MOTHER'S DAY WITH THESE BEAUTY

Mother’s Day presents do not have to be “mother-ish” (ahem, gardening sets and appeal bracelets). Moms love looking good and getting pampered (take it from this one), and makeup and splendor objects could make a pleasing alternative to the conventional bouquet.

Considering that masses of splendor merchandise are as pretty as they promise to make a woman look and sense, the packaging may be present in itself. Here are a few Mother’s Day splendor ideas to do not forget for mom this 12 months.

The holistic beauty emblem created by using movie star facialist Tammy Fender

(fans of her products consist of Alicia Silverstone, Julianne Moore, and Alanis Morissette) is inspired with the aid of the recuperation and rejuvenating properties of rose and permit’s mom indulge while not having to leave the house.

Considering the superstar fans of this makeup line (Gisele Bundchen, Selena Gomez, and Sofia Coppola all had Marc Jacobs Beauty appears for the latest Met Gala), mom is positive to revel in the cool component that includes this product series, all housed in a collectible makeup bag stimulated by the Marc Jacobs spring 2017 runway.

Why We Celebrate Holidays

Most people celebrate vacations – Christmas, Halloween, Valentine’s Day – however why?

Of course, we celebrate some vacations due to our religious ideals. However, there are different motives why we keep to these joyous events. These vacations cut up the float of the 12 months and bind us together as families and communities.

We celebrate vacations due to the fact we want to have fun. We need a run from our ordinary schedules,

Jobs, and many others. Without vacations, our weeks could run collectively into years of humdrum mediocrity. What is October without youngsters ringing our doorbells soliciting for candy? What are November without turkey at the desk and own family around it? What is February without heart-formed bins adorning the kitchen counter? The answer: dull months, I say.

We also have good time holidays because they’re motives to reconnect with family and lengthy misplaced buddies. Although we are able to make an effort to peer circle of relatives and near pals each time, many people do now not. Many people make vacations the times they attain out to other humans. And no longer handiest is it essential to us to sense the warm temperature of family, we enjoy holidays due to the fact they create out an experience of a network. The brilliant pink hearts decorating branch stores in February, the blinking lights strung on lamp posts in December, those assist us to feel linked to something large than ourselves.

In a global, wherein get-togethers and barbecues do now not occur as an awful lot as they used to in decades beyond.

In an international in which nobody borrows sugar from his or her neighbor to any extent further or bakes a cake when a person actions onto the block, holidays tie us together.

I urge all of us to no longer throw vacations to the aspect of the street. Get out and enhance your property at Christmastime. Surprise your partner, boyfriend or female friend with Valentine’s Day present. And genuinely have fun at Halloween. Even if you do now not experience Halloween, I guarantee the kids to your community will appreciate you dressing up, setting a graveyard to your the front yard and passing out sweet.

Best Gifts For Mother’s Day

A mother is a person who is going thru the painstaking adventure of wearing her child in her womb for 9 months. So there’s rarely a person who wouldn’t want to position a grin back on his/her mom’s face. There are limitless picks we are able to make in terms of choosing a gift for Mother’s Day. From decorative mugs, stylish bracelets, elegant sarees to sublime dinner sets or a coveted bestseller, you can literally fall for some of the tantalizing gifts for Mother’s Day event.

The flicker of the smile that you get to see your mom’s face when she receives a gift is valuable. You may even delve into your mother’s hobby and find out what she desires the maximum or what is that astounding dream that she usually wanted to meet? The preference that your mom feels is satisfactory for her may be whatever and the entirety, it can be as easy as the sunshine or something as wacky as a tribal art set! All you want to do is pinpoint your finger at the sensational object and the arena is at your feet. Let’s test some of the objects trending as the favorite Mother’s day present-

1) Cake-

You can order a favorite chocolate cake, strawberry shortbread cookies or delicious blueberry truffles in your mom as her last mom’s day gift, from any of her favored bakeries. A decent surprise for her would be if you can bake a cake yourself and pinnacle it up with an extraordinary icing.

2) An Assorted Gift-

Buy a number of her favorite beauty or tub products and present to her as an assorted gift, wrapping it up in an attractive style. You may go for a sweet-scented deodorant with a dreamy fragrance or a high-quality moisturizer that she would like.

3) A Designer Outfit

A cool choice of garb is something a mother appreciates. It doesn’t need to burn your wallet, however, look for a layout which you think your mother will recognize. Discuss together with your father or husband approximately your mom’s fashion picks.

4) Chocolates

Chocolates are the maximum common mother’s day gift which melts in your mouth and melts your hearts too. If you cannot have enough money something fancy like a steeply-priced brand perfume, you can gift your mother her favorite candies and she won’t thoughts. Dark chocolate, milk chocolate, mint chocolate, orange chocolate, caramel chocolate, and nuts will make her experience eternal bliss.

5) Jewelry

We understand that a diamond is all the time and it’s a woman’s fine friend. But you don’t need a luxurious piece to make her satisfied. It may even be a fab plastic, terracotta, shell or metallic fancy jewelry to make your mom experience like a goddess. Besides, in case you’re lucky then nothing turns up the magic just like the glitter of gold, deliver the single in in your mom’s eyes. Whether you’ll pick out real jewelry or style jewelry, your mom could be extremely joyful to have quite things to wear.

American Beauty Semiotic Analysis

American Beauty, thru its use of symbols and the title of the film itself makes us observe the characters and their philosophies (American dream, their ideas of fulfillment, beauty, and many others.) each as they may be and as they may be perceived. No one within the film is truly as they appear. In the cease the creepiest (Ricky) is the nicest, the successful spouse is an unstable ruin, and the American splendor is as an alternative plan.

The pink rose pedals, which seem numerous times all through American Beauty area image for romance, sensuality, and energy. However it’s far vital to be aware that in the course of most of the movie the crimson roses are implicitly an phantasm. The red roses within the context of an illusion come to stand for a sugar covered fact.

By sugar coating I mean that which covers up the natural stimulation

(taste, sight, contact) via “sweetening” it. In all however one of the scenes, the purple puddles are around Angela overlaying her bare frame in a manner which makes whatever lays beneath, that rather more engaging, through the use of sensual reds and the sexiness of mystery. Not to mention extreme spectacles which frequently accompany Lester’s dream scenes.

However inside the scene wherein Lester eventually gets what he has been wishing for Angela has no red peddles around her. Unlike her breasts in the first scene which had been protected up with colourful petals, this scene exposes her body for what it’s far, we adore Lester begin to sense like Angela may not were all she was cracked up to be. It isn’t that Angela is not stunning, it’s miles that no person should live as much as the god like expectations that Lester’s wild fantasies created.

After Lester reveals out that Angela is a virgin and in no way

What the notion she was he is going out to the kitchen and picks up a picture of his own family. As Lester seems at a photograph of his own family pronouncing “man oh man…” a busy of purple roses(actual to those proven earlier) are shown for approximately five seconds. These roses in contrast to all shown previously are real, now not a dream. Also not like the roses showed earlier they may be related to his family and not Angela. In this context, the roses do now not represent sugar coating but actual love, sensuality, and energy. Seconds later we see a puddle of crimson blood. Shortly once we revel in, via video montage that’s Lester’s lifestyles flashing earlier than his eyes, the love, sensuality, and energy which the picture represented.
