Forever Geo Fringe Necklace - $15: I've been looking for this necklace in stores for a few weeks now, but with no luck. Caroline tweeted that F21 was having offering free shipping with no minimum so I got suckered in. I've recently really liked the look of larger statement pieces but with neutral colors so I'm excited for this necklace to arrive.Old Navy Tee [seen here] - $6 down from $17: This is my super trendy purchase of the month. Luckily it costs about as much as lunch does, so I'm going to have fun with it while I can.The Limited Shorts - $28 ($44 + 40% sale): The pair I purchased are actually more of a dark coral than these hot pink ones shown online (seen here). They are in the Drew fit, so they are a bit dressier. I like them because they are just bit longer than some chino shorts out there. Chris says they look like mom shorts, but I highly disagree. Boys!Sam Edelman Felicia Flats [seen here] - $60 at Nordstrom Rack: These were purchased when Chris and I were in Minneapolis at the beginning of the month. I've been looking for a comfortable nude flats for a while so I'm happy to finally have found a pair.Joe's Jeans - $50 on eBay: As you guys know, I really love my Joe's Jeans. I've had them for about 3 years now, and wear them all the time. Unfortunately, all of that wear was eventually starting to show so even though I have done some thigh reinforcing, a second pair was needed. I didn't want to spend the full price in stores, so I searched eBay. I ran into a couple of problems (the first pair were the wrong size, the second pair were advertised incorrectly) so I'm thrilled that I finally found the right pair. The length is longer than my current pair, so instead of getting them hemmed I'm going to wear them with wedges...which I don't own yet. Everlane White & Black V Tee - $30: you can read the whole search/ review about these here!Forever 21 Geo Cutout Cuff - $6: will be a fun piece to wear with #1Madewell Sweater [seen here] - $30 on sale: okay, maybe also not a staple piece, but it's really comfortable and I like it so there ;)Groupdealz Clover Necklace [seen here] - $7: I've been looking for one of these necklaces for about two years. I remember seeing it on Veronika, and really really liking it but, the price was too high, so I was happy to get these for a steal from Groupdealz a few weeks ago.Thrifted items not pictured: this vintage polka dot dress from Goodwill ($7), this J.Crew silk dress (also $7 but the current style goes for much MUCH more - who donates these things?), and a blazer ($4)         = $250 - $60 left over from last month - $25 clothing sold = $165Overall, not too bad this month even if I did go over just by a little bit. I got a few items to fill the holes in my closet (the white tees, jeans, coral shorts, and nude flats), a few fun pieces, and a start to having actual clothes to wear this summer. I have three weeks left of work, which means only five more weeks of having an income. I need to crack down on making purchases for the next two months for financial and space issues (all of my clothes have to come with me in my car for my move). I can't believe all of this is actually happening.School Wardrobe update: Chris and I went to the mall on Memorial Day to take a look through the sales racks. I ended up buying this skirt and this skirt (in pink) from Banana Republic. Both were on final sale in store, plus 40% off, so I got both for a total of $38 (see them here). I also really liked the color of this skirt, but it wrinkled far too easily, and since I'll be sitting for really long periods of time in school I figured it wouldn't be the best piece to buy. While at BR, I also tried on a bunch of different dress pants. I ended up really liking this style (in black), but I need them in a long which they didn't have in store. The style is currently sold out online but the sales associate assured me that they have that style come back all the time as it's one of their classics, so I just need to keep an eye out for it online. J.Crew Factory also had 50% off online sale yesterday, and while perusing through the site, I found these shoes. They were exactly what I was looking for, so I ordered them in nude. They're on backorder now, and won't ship until July, which is kind of a bummer that I can't wear them a few times now, but it'll be like a fun surprise when they do finally arrive.So how did you do this month? Did the Memorial Day sales sucker you in, or provide you with the opportunity to get some great pieces at even greater prices? I'd love to hear how your month went with regards to sticking to your budget.

Where to stay in Mount Dora? Bella Dora Bunaglow

As a travel agent, I inspect various properties all over the world so I can advise clients the best places to stay. Yesterday, I had the opportunity to visit Bell Dora Bungalow, in Mount Dora. What a quaint, quiet, adorable place!From the moment you step inside, you feel welcomed. Of course, it probably had something to do with Shirley Harris' smiling face (the owner). The home is beautifully decorated and pulls in the whimsical charm of Mount Dora.This 2 bedroom, 1 bath is perfect for short and long term rentals. Once people find out about the bungalow, they keep coming back. Harris says she has northerners that have been renting the place for years and that they will be back next year. Cook in the full equipped kitchen, grill out, or take in some of the cuisine from Mount Dora's and Tavares' local restaurants. Downtown Mount Dora is about 1 mile away and Tavares is approximately 3.7 miles. Relax by the Koi pond and enjoy a glass of wine by the fire pit as the day comes to a close. As crickets serenade and the fire crackles, you will never forget your stay at the Mount Dora Bungalow.Things to know:A/CWiFi/InternetPet friendly (up to 20 lbs)40 minutes from Orlando attractions (Walt Disney World, Universal Studios, Sea World)-Renovating your home? -Needing a get-a-way?-Participating in local events?

2013 Autism One Conference - Days 1 -3

Greetings,Wow.......its been an amazing 3 days here at the Autism One conference in Chicago.   I have met so many people who are leading the charge in this epidemic.  I met Dr. Wakefield today.  I met Robert Scott Bell & Liam Scheff yesterday.  I met an MIT prof last night who has done a aluminum-autism study.   I will try to highlight each of the seminars I've been to & then go more into depth at a later date.Wednesday evening - Balance tips for a busy household & Lydia presents her lifeJane Winans gave a talk on how to balance a busy life with a special needs child.  I don't have any special needs children but I do have a busy life that really gets out of hand at time.  She gave a few tips for time savers - 1. Clone yourself -      You can do the work alone, expand your comfort zone (don't expect everything to be perfect all the time) or you can ask for help.  2.  Take advantage of technology.  Use the "cloud" for grocery lists & errands instead of a sheet on the fridge.  I would find the list on the fridge better, more easily accessible but to each his own.3.  Make things ahead of time.  Instead of browninng 1 lb. of hamburger, do more & put it in the fridge or freezer for later.  4.  Where do I waste my time?  Don't let fear, anxiety, etc. waste you time.We need to set realistic goals & not overschedule ourselves every day, every week, etc.  (this is an area I really need to work on!)Men & women see things differently.  He might ask "Do we have ketchup" when he looks in the fridge, a woman sees it differently.   Instead of getting frustrated, just hand the bottle to him.Put first things first, do things one at a time & have some fun at it too.Thursday morning I went to a seminar called Know your family rights.  It was led by 2 lady lawyers from the State of New York which is really cracking down on parents who don't vaccinate even if they do have exemptions in place.  They talked about having a binder with all of the papers you need for your child in the event that you are not able to take care of your child.  Whether your child is removed from the home for some reason or you become temporarily or permantely disabled.  This is a BIG subject that I have quite a few pages of notes on.  So I will expand on it later.  But it is scary what can done to your child if he/she is removed from your home & your wishes are not followed.My 2nd seminar for Thursday was a movie called "Mercury thru the generations" presented by Eric Uram from Safe Minds.  It talked about Pink Disease which was caused by calomel teething powder.  This powder was rubbed on the gums of teething infants & the result was mercury poisoning.  The fatality rate in children who got these powders was 10-33%.  The children who survived this poisoning had their DNA changed which was then passed onto their children & their grandchildren.  So.....a type of genetic autism was passed down thru the generations.  I believe this is how they are getting by with saying the Autism is "genetic".   This powder in the calomel was mercury chloride.  Here is the link to the MSDS sheet on this chemical.  It's nasty stuff!!http://www.sciencelab.com/msds.php?msdsId=9924616We hear on the news that mercury/Thimerosal has been removed from the vaccines here in the U.S.  but if you've checked my link to the CDC showing the ingredients for the vaccines, you'll see that its still there in varying amounts.These mercury laden vaccines are now being sent to other countries.  There is now an outbreak of autism in China because of Thimerosal laced vaccines.  What is big pharma doing to the world?I was talking to Dr. Wakefield & another doctor from Venezuela today.  Mercury is still in the vaccines that are sent down there, so there is another country that is being harmed from our thimerosal laced vaccines.I ran into a prof from MIT by the name of Stephanie Seneff, wonderful lady & very knowledgeable.  She wrote a paper looking at the aluminum in vaccines & then a possible connection to autism.   She gleaned info from the VAERS reporting system & looking at aluminum.   I haven't had a chance to read her paper yet, it is 27 pages long.  But here is the link to it -http://people.csail.mit.edu/seneff/Entropy/entropy-14-02227.pdfWe also talked about Monsanto & what it is doing to the people who eat GMO grains.  She talked about some specific properties that I can't recall.  I hope if Stephanie reads this blog entry that she will chime in the comments section.  After this movie, we watched another one called "Age of Aluminum."  It talks about the toxicity of aluminum, what it does to the fish when released into the water, what it does to the skin of people who come in direct contact with the toxic aftermath of aluminum manufacturing.  I have about 10 pages of notes from this movie.  Claire, I'm drawing a blank on her last name said they were going to try to get screenings of it around the U.S., possibly on Netflix.   They hope to have their own website up soon.  I will let you know when that is up & give you more info about this movie at a later time.Which brings us up to today.  Today was uplifting, filled a bit with political rhetoric & a bit of grandstanding.  Many of you know about the hearings that have been held regarding vaccines, Thimerosal & autism.   Both of the meetings I attended this morning were regarding this very issue.  The first meeting was talking about Autism & the VICP (Vaccine Compensation program).  We were told that the CDC cares very little about autism & the children who get autism as a result of getting vaccinated are just collateral damage.  The panel also said that the CDCs own studies show that vaccines cause autism but are hiding this fact from the American public.  Can you imagine the backlash from parents?   The transparency needs to be there.  Parents have a right to know.From 1990 to 2001 there was a 700% increase in the cases of autism.  632% of that increase the CDC could NOT account for.  So only 68% can be accounted for.  You could just feel the air in the room become heavy after that statement.There has been 138 studies that show the negative affects of thimerosal in vaccines.   Show us the studies, we have a right to know.Dr. Paul Thorsen supposedly did a study & told everyone that it was NOT funded by the CDC.  DASTI (CDC) were sent to the organization NANEA which is run by Thorsen.  Thorsen was indicted in 2011 for money laundering.  Who is being hired to do this studies?We need to keep asking questions until there are no questions left to ask.The compensation act of 1986 replaced the rule of law.  Regular rules of court don't apply.  There is no judge, no jury just a politically appointed attorney.  Lets say there are 5,000 cases of vaccine injured children to be heard.  5 will be selected to be "test" cases to decide the fate of the rest.  This is why most cases are never paid out.  The Hannah Polling case was going to be one of those test cases but the results were concealed.  The vaccine court powers were abused.  Dr. Zimmerman gave 2 different opinions & the one showing the link between vaccines & autism was hidden & the opinion that said there was no link was put out there.  There is a letter from the Kennedy Krieger Institute that was written by Dr. Zimmerman about this case.  As soon as I find it online, I will post it.    Dr. Zimmerman is a top national neurologist.The vaccine court cases have NOT been tracked.  This is so sad, so many parents could find their financial needs met if the transparency was there.  One of the lawmakers said today that it is estimated that it will cost a parent $3.2 MILLION dollars to raise & care for an autistic child thru adulthood.  That is a LOT of money.It all boils down to the fact the CDC & the FDA are NOT doing their jobs.  They are putting the millions of dollars that are being poured into Washington by big pharma ahead of the lives of the children worldwide that are being affected by the toxins in vaccines.Bill Posey said that Dr. Colleen Boyle can sure dance.  In the hearings she danced all around the questions but never really gave a straight answer.  She was asked to give a written response.  This usually takes a day or 2, it took her 18 days to respond & all she did was lie & cover up the truth left & right.A congressman Issa posed this question - Why should a person be forced to take a drug that will cause brain damage?  Vaccines are not the only drug out there that will cause brain damage.  I touched on the SSRI issue not to long ago.  My half sister who was in the navy asked me to look up a drug that was given to military personnel to combat malaria.  Pretty nasty stuff & it had neurological side affects.  Again......where is the transparency?The health industry is NOT on our side.  The more dependent we are on big pharma the more money they make.  The more money that is poured into Washington.  It's a vicious circle.A bill is currently going thru the house called HR1757.  It's calling for an investigation into the safety of vaccines, taking a look at the Thimerosal & aluminum issue.  99% of the people in the room this morninng agreed that if the government is involved in the study, it will not be accurate.  It has to be done by an outside source in order to get full transparency & accurate reporting.  Otherwise we will hear the same rhetoric we hear now- There is NO link to vaccines & autism.A seminar I went to this afternoon was called Vaccine manufacturing contaminants you haven't been told about.  This was given by Theresa Deisher, PH.D.She told us about changing point in the history of vaccines.  There has to be 4 characteristics in order for a changing point to happen.They are - 1.  Low or absent before the epidemic.2.  An apparent dose effect3.  Biological mechanism of action compatible with the disease.4.  Broad or universal exposureThis was a very complicated & draining mentally seminar.  But basically viruses are long molecules of RNA/DNA.  A person is injected with a cell line that was used to grow the virus.  Whether it be animal tissue or aborted fetus tissue.The human DNA can go into our DNA & change it.  The fetal cell line WI-38 is contaminated with a retrovirus which will allow not only human DNA into our DNA but foreign (animal) DNA as well.  If the human DNA changes our DNA just imagine what foreign DNA does.In 1988, the MMR vaccine was changed from animal to human DNA.  This was when the the autism rate really started to skyrocket.  There are no guidelines or limits on human DNA that is in vaccines.  Also in 1988, a 2nd dose of MMR was introduced.  How many of you remember the boys who lived in a bubble?  These boys were given the same ingredients as the contanminents in vaccines.  Cancer occurred in 4 out of 9 boys, 1 died.  What is one of the other things we are seeing in our children today?  A rise in cancer.   The 4th seminar I attended was Measles deaths, injuries & the world war over MMR.  I'm going to admit right now, this was WAY over my head.  Dr. Wakefield sat right in front of me listening to it & gave an award to the guy who did the research to put together this presentation.  They started off saying that journalists who do stories connecting vaccines to autism are basically kissing their career good bye.  Why is this topic so taboo?   Why is only one side of this argument (pro-vaccine) legitimate?I'm just going to give a brief overview of my notes & then go more into depth later as I decipher what I wrote.In 1968 there was a measles epidemic in the Yanomani tribe in South America.  When they became sick, many tribe members retreated into the woods.  But by then it was too late, many died from measles as a result of vaccination.Prof. John Tooley - Darkeness in Eldorado - In a study he said - there is a catastrophe for immunization in the 3rd world.  Thousands or millions will die.The MMR vaccination rates have actually been on the rise in the U.K. & worldwide.  Between Jan. of 2000 & September of 2002, 93.9% of children got the MMR vaccine by their 3rd b-day.  Many children just got the MR (measles-ruebella) vaccine.  But, it doesn't count since it didn't have the mumps component in it.  In a Bryett-Clinicial Expert Report - they said there is very little gain from having a mumps vaccine.Mauri Hillman with Merck said that Mumps isn't that bad so why develop a vaccine?(Merck is the major manufacturer of the MMR vaccine)Mr. Hillman was also quoted as saying - The Live measles vaccine is solving a medical problem with no real understanding of it.Sir Graham Wilson  said in 1960 that 1 in 100k children will die from measles.  That was in 1960.  Today we have much better sanitation, food & water.  I think that rate would be much lower now.  JFK decided that no other country would have a vaccine unless the U.S. did also.  So when Russia had a measles vaccine, the U.S. had to have a measles vaccine.J.A. Dudgeon, M.D. - Quoted regarding the MMR shot - the MMR vaccine would be a disaster & that is a view that I hold today.The last speech I heard today was the of Bobby Kennedy Jr.  He was dragged into the vaccine-autism link kicking & screaming but is now fighting to get the transparency out there.He said there are 3 CDCs - 1.  CDC - bases vaccines on the science 2.  CDC - sees the executive summaries & then rewrites them to their liking3.  CDC - does the press releasesHe went on to say that methylmercury is a neurotoxin & that there some studies that show ethylmercury to be not toxic BUT it is not being excreted by the body.  It's not coming out in the sweat, urine, hair or feces.  So where is it going?  It's going into the brain.Dr. Paul Offit admitted to Kennedy about some of the problems with vaccines (& he recorded these phone conversations) BUT Offit went on the radio & denied everything that was said to Kennedy.There were studies done with 3 different groups of kids that totaled about 16,000 kids.  The first 2 showed a link & the 3rd did not.  Guess which group we are hearing about?  There are hundreds of studies out there that show Thimerosal is a problem.  Kennedy is putting together a book showing these studies & there are fact checkers working on everything to make everything is rock solid.  These studies go all the way back to 1928 & come all the way forward to this year.But, this book will never be published.  He wants the CDC, the FDA & other agencies involved in the vaccine program to read it.I'm hoping this book is released to the general public at some point so we finally see the truth - that the children of the world have been the guinea pigs of big pharma for many generations.Time for some sleep, until tomorrow,LoriP.S.   If any of you are on Facebook, here is a link to a few pictures I was able to get the last few days.  I hope to get more over the next 2 days.  https://www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.10151608458514395.1073741836.788819394&type=1&l=f513a1be25

Rafael Nadal given surprising test at French Open

                                         (Matthew Stockman/Getty Images)Rafael Nadal knows this story well. All too well. Saw it up close the previous time he played in a major tournament, actually. Early round, main stadium, unknown opponent taking risky swings and putting everything in. At Wimbledon nearly a year ago, it was 100th-ranked Lukas Rosol who took it to Nadal and beat him in the second round. At the French Open on Monday, in Nadal's return to Grand Slam action after missing seven months with knee trouble, it was 59th-ranked Daniel Brands in the guest-star role. Like Rosol, Brands is six-foot-five and lanky. Like Rosol, Brands employed a go-for-broke style and was hitting big. And for one whole set and most of the next during a first-round match in Court Philippe Chatrier, against the most successful man in Roland Garros history, it worked.Nadal already owns a record seven French Open titles, including the past three. His bid to become the only man with eight championships at any of tennis' quartet of most important tournaments got off to a slow start, before he restored order by coming back to beat a faltering Brands 4-6, 7-6 (4), 6-4, 6-3. "He was trying to hit every ball as hard as he can," said Nadal, 37-2 this season, with 16 victories in a row. "He made me suffer, I can tell you." Brands came in 0-4 at the French Open, and with a sub-.500 career record in all tour matches, and his strategy was right out of Rosol's playbook: Keep points short and aim for the lines. "That's the way. If you give Nadal time, there's no chance. You have to be aggressive. That's my view," Rosol, who's now ranked 36th, said Monday after winning his first-round match. "If other players play aggressive against him, that's the only way to beat him." Toni Nadal, who is Rafael's uncle and coach, saw similarities with the last time his nephew played at a Grand Slam. "Yes, it was a little the same," Uncle Toni said. "Against Rosol, in the fifth set, we couldn't do anything." But when a reporter wanted to know whether there's a pattern being established as to the type of foe who can bother Rafael, Toni shrugged that off, replying: "When you play against an opponent who serves really well, who puts in a high percentage of first serves, and who hits balls really fast, it's complicated for everyone — not just for Rafael." Had the third-seeded Nadal lost the match, it would have been one of the biggest upsets in the sport's history. Even merely losing the first set was significant, though, considering that Nadal began the day having dropped only 14 of the 170 sets he'd contested at the clay-court major tournament. The victory improved his career record at Roland Garros to 53-1, the only loss coming in the fourth round in 2009 against Robin Soderling, not incidentally a six-foot-four free swinger. "It was very, very difficult for us," Toni Nadal said after Monday's match.Source: http://www.cbc.ca/sports/tennis/story/2013/05/27/sp-atp-wta-tennis-french-open-roland-garros.html

New Rutgers controversy

New Rutgers controversy, The woman hired to clean up Rutgers’ scandal-scarred athletic program quit as Tennessee’s women’s volleyball coach 16 years ago after her players submitted a letter complaining she ruled through humiliation, fear and emotional abuse, the Star-Ledger reported on its website.“The mental cruelty that we as a team have suffered is unbearable,” the players wrote about Julie Hermann, hired May 15 as Rutgers’ athletic director after serving as the No. 2 athletic administrator at Louisville.In the letter submitted by all 15 team members, the players said Hermann called them “whores, alcoholics and learning disabled” and they wrote: “It has been unanimously decided that this is an irreconcilable issue.” The players told The Star-Ledger that Hermann absorbed the words and said: “I choose not to coach you guys.”Governor Chris Christie plans to speak with Rutgers officials about the story. Christie spokesman Michael Drewniak says the governor is aware of the report but wants to get more details before commenting. “He’s not going to make any judgments at this time,” Drewniak said in an email to The Associated Press on Sunday.The 49-year-old Hermann, set to take over the Rutgers’ program June 17, told the Star-Ledger she didn’t remember the letter. The newspaper said when it was read to her by phone Wednesday, she replied, “Wow.”Most of the former players told the paper they did not want the allegations of the past to harm her future. One player, however, pointed out that “We have yet to be acknowledged or apologized to by Julie.”Among the allegations about her by players: she yanked players by their jerseys when making changes, forcing them to wear their workout clothes inside-out to a restarant meal after a lopsided loss and asking a player if she was going to lose the game for the team and then lightly hitting her in the stomach with the back of her hand.Herman the told the paper after hearing the allegations that “These are people I cared about and still care about. I just don’t feel it’s my job to guess their motivations. Like I said, it’s the first I’ve ever heard of it. I’m going to try to focus on leading Rutgers into the Big Ten, and that’s all I know to do.”  Read more
