Wabi-Sabi Savvy

By Maddy Cranley Just when we have all learned to correctly pronounce Feng Shui, the Chinese art of appropriate placement of objects in our living spaces, along comes another ancient Oriental aesthetic philosophy, "wabi-sabi". Seemingly destined to become as popular as Feng Shui, wabi-sabi addresses our relationship to all things that surround us, not just to their positioning in our living and working environments. Plainly stated, the basic tenets of wabi-sabi are simple is best, less is more. Leonard Koren in his book "Wabi-Sabi: for Artists, Designers, Poets and Philosophers (Stonebridge Press, 1995) describes it as a beauty " of things imperfect, impermanent and incomplete, modest and humble and of things unconventional." It is actually a difficult concept to describe. Once it is defined, thereby giving it a form, it loses the essence which makes it what it is. Wabi-sabi began in 14th century Japan as a reaction to the rich materials, brilliant colors and lavish ornamentation displayed by the Chinese culture. Today the popularity of wabi-sabi could be viewed as a response to our high tech world in which exactness and duplicaton are so prized that designer logos are worn front and center on clothing to identify it as being a perfect match to all others produced by that same designer. Something so exact and mass-produced is definitely not wabi-sabi. Natural and crafted objects are wabi-sabi because they so often display an individuality that cannot be duplicated. A handknit sweater would definitely qualify as wabi-sabi. Yes, many knitters may knit the same sweater from the exact same pattern instructions, even using an identical yarn, but each resulting sweater will likely have subtle differences. An individual knitter's tension, which can sometimes vary from day to day, will certainly vary from knitter to knitter. Slubs and bumps even in the same brand of yarn will appear in different places in the garment and differences in needle-holding technique can sometimes be evident in the twist of the finished knitting. This is wabi-sabi. In contrast, a mass-produced knit sweater, created with the same computer-controlled machinery will guarantee that all the sweaters will look exactly alike - definitely not wabi-sabi. Wabi-sabi also prizes the dented and scratched, the bumpy and irregular, the weathered and worn. Perfection is sterile. Imperfection is beautiful. So here's a different way to look at those dropped stitches that were recovered onto the needle, with that ever so slight a twist of the yarn, or at the variance in a dye lot that results in a line across your back that only you can see. It is these imperfections that give the sweater its unique beauty. The concept of wabi-sabi embraces the passage of time. The slightly felted but dearly loved old woollen sweater that you cannot part with and the knitted teddy bear, torn and ragged from a child's love, all embody wabi-sabi. These characteristics suggest that the object has a history. No brand name or high price tag could change what these objects mean to the owner. It's value is gauged on a very personal and private level. So take pride in your wabi-sabi knitting. Be proud of that noticeable slub in the yarn, the slightly stretchy neckline or the twisted picked-up stitch. You have seen a simple strand of yarn develop into a unique garment, one that stands alone and unmatched, but best of all prized by you - that's wabi-sabi.

Auto Financing with Bad Credit

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=Garry_Chaples]Garry Chaples Are you one of the many people who have credit problems? Bad credit is more common than you think! The good news is, more and more lenders are now targeting consumers with bad credit! Even if you have bad credit, you can still qualify for an auto loan...and it's become easier and less humiliating now due to the wonders of the internet! You can apply online, and not have to put up with the unneeded stress of trying to get financed through the dealership! Here's how to buy a vehicle if you have bad credit... Set up financing before even stepping onto the car lot! You can get "pre-approvals" from many online lenders. This way you know when you walk onto the first car lot exactly how much you can spend, and how much your monthly payments will be! The lenders will approve you for the loan, and mail you a voucher that you give to the dealership once you work the deal on the car you want. You simply fill in the amount borrowed (up to your pre-approved limit,) sign, send your signed contract into the lender, and you're done! In order to qualify for a bad credit car loan, lenders look at some specific things. They will want to see if you have sufficient income to cover your current bills, the loan payment you are about to commit to, as well as the costs of maintaining and insuring your new vehicle. Most lenders also prefer that you've held your current job for about a year, and that you've had a consistent home address. It sounds a bit simplistic, but don't take on any more of a car payment than you can afford! Use this opportunity to rebuild your credit...make your payments on time, and when your credit situation improves, you can get your loan refinanced at a lower interest rate. Like with any other buying situation, it is best to compare rates among different lenders. Be careful not to apply at too many places though, as too many credit inquiries will have a negative effect on your credit score. Should you need any recommendations, please go to http://bad-credit-lenders.net Good Luck to you in that new car! Garry Chaples is the owner of http://bad-credit-lenders.net and

Fishing Creeks

By Michael Kilby The first question is Why fish creeks? every one has small lakes, rivers, and large lakes near their home. If your area is like mine the small ponds are highly pressured and the only way to fish the larger lakes is to use a boat. Yes, I have a boat but not everyone does. The other problem is I may only have an hour or two to fish, is it worth it to put the boat in an out of the water I dont believe so. The benefits I see of fishing the creeks are I can fish for as little time as 30 minutes or all day if I have the time. The deepest part of the creeks I fish is just 8 feet and if youre wading you can always walk around the deeper holes. Bank fishing is always an option especially in early spring before the weeds and brush grows too thick to get to all the good spots. When the water warms up just an old pair of gym shoes and a pair of shorts will do the job. If you wish to purchase waders I would suggest chest waders. When I use hip waders I always find areas I would like to go but the hip wader always seem to be a little to short for where I what to go. In the little creeks by the house I have landed Large Mouth Bass, Small Mouth Bass, Rock Bass, Bluegill, Crappie, Cats, Saugeye and by accident a turtle. Tackle is simple a medium light rod or ultra light if you prefer, a small reel I like one that will hold 80 yards of 6 lb test line. I have used 4 lb test line and had no problems landing fish but it is more likely to break if you get hung up on a rock or bush. Using 6 lb test line the hooks I use will straighten before I break the line. I have to give a plug here for Yo-Zuri hybrid fishing line because it is simply awesome. I have found for best results which means to catch the most fish is to down size your hooks and bait. I use 16th oz jigs and 1 to 2 inch grubs. If you like using in line spinners use 16th oz. I take 4 twister tail worms and pinch off about an inch and use a size 1 or 2 offset worm hook. When fishing the creek I use a small waist tackle pouch with three pockets to carry all the tackle I need. My tackle is in the truck at all times incase the opportunity presents itself to fish a while. The jigs, small spinners, small top water poppers work well in fast running water even just a couple feet deep. I have better luck in deeper water with the twister tail worms and small tubes. Small crank baits work well also if the water is clear. Dont miss the opportunity to have great day fishing at your nearby creek.

How To have a Fabulous and Memorable Prom Night

By Patricia Kopp Prom is a night for graduating seniors to celebrate their twelve plus years of school. It is one of the last few times that your class will get together and have a good time. It is a time when you realize that you are leaving high school behind and are growing up and becoming a young adult. It is a time for graduating seniors to make a great memory and here are some ideas to have a fabulous and memorable prom night: 1. Create a prom scrapbook. Fill a binder with mementos such as the price tag from your dress, your corsage, your ticket stubs anything that has to do with prom night. Then decorate the outside of the scrapbook with a collage of your favorite prom pictures. Theme the scrapbook with the same theme as your prom. 2. Be organized with your prom planning. Have a checklist of everything you need to get done for prom including your dress, activities before and after and who you are going with. Also, plan your pre-dance dinner if needed well ahead of time. Prom night is a popular night for local restaurants, so reserve a table for you and your date at least a month prior to the event. 3. Be sure to rest before the big night. Having fun on prom night will use up a lot of energy. You will be stressed from all the preparations and with all the dancing you will be doing, you need to make sure that you get a good nights sleep before prom and maybe even take a nap the day of prom. If you talked your parents into extending curfew on prom night, you will need all the sleep you can get beforehand. Believe me you will have more fun if you are not dead tired. 4. Most students find the prom a lot more fun if they go in a group. Couples can share a car, and several cars can go together and arrive at the dance at the same time. Or super size your prom ride by renting a minibus. Pass around a list and recruit your group. A ride this size costs less than a limo does per person. You will all arrive together and you can all sit together at the same table and enjoy each other's company all evening. Remember that the earlier you arrive, the better your chances will be of finding an empty table where you can all sit together. 5. You may want to get together at one person's house to take group pictures and have hors d'oeuvres. Throw kind of a pre-prom mocktail party with virgin drinks. This gives everyone an opportunity to get a good start on the evening. It will also give parents a chance to make a fuss over all of you and take as many pictures as they want. They will probably be having as much fun as you are. 6. Buy a bunch of one time use cameras and pass them around to your friends. Set a goal to use every last picture before the night is through. Hopefully, you will want to remember this night forever and this way you will get plenty of candid shots. 7. Dance away the night. Dont be a wall flower on prom night. Get up and dance! If you dont want to slow dance with your prom date, dont let that stop you from having fun. Pull your friends onto the floor and dance in a circle. 8. Sometimes students don't spend much time at the dance, but just show up for pictures and leave. These are the ones that really miss out on the fun. This may be the last time you will be seeing a lot of the people you have spent the last four years of high school with. It may be the biggest party you will ever attend where you know so many people in attendance. Enjoy it and have a great time! You'll remember it when you look back years later, and it will be a good memory. 9. Take care of your belongings. Don't leave valuables on the table or in bathrooms. Even if you think you know everyone at the dance, it would be very sad to lose a camera or your money just because you were careless and left it sitting around unattended. 10. After prom is over, be playful and have fun. Some suggestions: After prom, go bowling or to a late-night arcade. Theres nothing like friendly competition to really get everyone laughing. Or go to a late night diner all dressed up and order fries and a milk shake; itll hit the spot and youll get lots of attention. You can even gather in a friends house or backyard or on the beach, take your shoes off, turn up the music and really dance. Even the most ordinary things become more fun when youre dressed up! Youre only in high school once. You might as well enjoy your night and make it last as long as you can. Prom is a wonderful way to celebrate with your class but please dont make choices on prom night that you will regret later. Dont drink or use drugs as both impair your judgment, can hurt you and are illegal. You want this to be a night you can remember in a good way not a bad one. Article by Patricia Kopp.

Planning Your Outdoor Wedding Reception

By Randy Wilson An outdoor wedding reception can be host to an almost unlimited number of guests and has the aura of nature that can never be duplicated in an indoor ballroom. Some of the following outdoor wedding reception ideas should help to get you started with planning this special day, including avoiding some of the dangers involved with an outdoor setting. One of the great advantages of outdoor wedding receptions is the cost. If you have your own suitable parcel of land, you can save thousands of dollars over the rental of a reception hall. Even renting someone else's private land for the event is generally cheaper than a ballroom. Hosting an outdoor wedding reception at a public park is not recommended because public parks are just that: public. It can be difficult to control who will and will not end up wandering around eating the hors d'oeuvres. There is plenty of private acreage for rent just about anywhere, quite suitable for a large outdoor wedding reception. This allows you more managed access to the event. A great thing about the outdoors is that you can have games and entertainment that wouldn't be possible indoors. Outdoor games such as horseshoes and croquet are always a hit and can help to keep the younger guests occupied and out of trouble. The one thing you simply can't control is the weather. Outdoor wedding receptions are always at risk of being caught up in a storm. Plan for rain, hope for rain, even pray for rain! This way, the worst streak of bad luck will result in a beautiful, sunny day. Set up plenty of sheltered space to ensure adequate coverage from the elements. Even if the weather stays clear, large canopy tents provide your guests with some relief from the sun. Even when the sky is beautiful, any open space is subject to being hit by gusts of wind. Assume that anything able to blow around, will. Some things to keep in mind are tablecloths, napkins, disposable cups and plates, centerpieces, seating arrangement cards, and SCENTS from trash cans, neighboring pig farms, etc. Supply bug spray and sunblock for your less-prepared guests. Perhaps a small booth off to one corner of the lot could be dedicated to this task. Citronella candles around the perimeter can also be quite effective in this regard. Distribute a large number of trash receptacles throughout the outdoor wedding reception area. Guests are more likely to pick up a fluttering plate or napkin when they are near a place to discard it. You will also want hire an attendent whose sole job is to patrol the site and keep things stocked up and litter-free. Copyright Randy Wilson, All Rights Reserved.

UFO: How I Met Xrytspet

By John T Jones, Ph.D. Years ago I tried to write a science fiction novel. I wrote seven chapters and went brain dead. The novel was called The Glass Pool. There actually was a glass pool. I went out into the desert a couple of weeks ago to make sure I had seen the thing when I was a kid while out hunting Jack Rabbits. The walked through the sagebrush to where the greasewood was high. I busted through it and found the pool. The glas pool was filled with tumbleweeds and there was a dead coyote in the bottom. He had slid down into the thing and starved to death. Thats when I heard this noise like the shaking of a Mexican castanet. I jumped back. Then I jumped again when I realized I had almost jumped right on top of a six-foot (1.84615 meters) rattlesnake! The next thing that startled me was a voice that said, Xen yftlc yuggi fonn ledscrit. I turned to see a 4-foot (1.230769 meters) woman. She said, Sorry, wrong language module. My name is Xrytspet. She had lovely green hair that strangely went well with her metallic blue dress. Her voice was soft and sweet until she said, What are you doing out here besides scaring the heck out of that rattlesnake? I wondered if she was dangerous with that strange pistol-looking thing hanging from her neck. I said, What is that? She smiled and said back in her sweetest voice, How rude of me. Would you like a Phendroop? Before I could say Jack Sprat Eat No Fat she had dropped a Phendroop from her Phendroop dispenser into my hand. I didnt know if the Phendrooop was poisoned or not, but I had to take the chance. I plopped it into my mouth. She had a serious look on her face now. She said, Most creatures dont eat Phendroops. They rub them on their tummy. Sometimes we eat at one of your hamburger joints and the Phendroops help us to get rid of all that fat before it can clog our lynroorps. I felt a strange rumbling that started in my stomach and then oscillated violently down into my intestines. I rushed off to the far parts of the desert. I yelled, "Wait for me! Ill be right back! When I got back to the glass pool, the little woman was gone. I didnt know her, but somehow I missed her yellow eyes and those cute little fur boots she wore. I knew that nobody would believe my story when I got back home. My wife would say, I hope you found what you wanted out in that godforsaken place. Head down, I walked back to my old blue pickup. When I got in the cab, to my surprise, there she was. What took you so long? she said. I said, Who are you and what do you want from me? She smiled, I just got here from Fanton in G10009845788899990766. Why? I said. I have a special assignment from the Supreme Central Amalgamated Galaxy and Planet Literary Team. The what? You were writing about us when you lived in Iowa. You know, your novel The Glass Pole I corrected her, The Glass Pool Whatever! Silzrack was your technical source. He caught your chickenpox and we had to zap him back home before he died. Thats when you went brain dead. We call it Writers block. She shook her heads sideways, They sent me and I just got here. I assume that Silzrack just got to Fanton. I hope he is okay, I said. Chickenpox can be deadly to adult humans. Oh, he is okay. No problem there. He was frozen stiff as a block of Antarctic ice. No changes could take place in his body while he traveled. I just thawed out myself yesterday." "Just yesterday?" I asked. "I was never so glad to feel the radiation from your earth star." She shivered. I put my FnL7 Time Craft in the back of your pickup. I hope you dont mind. I looked through the back window. There was no Fnl7 Time Craft! I tuned to her and instead there was my wife who said, What took you so long? I hope you found what you wanted out in that godforsaken place. CopyrightJohn T. Jones, Ph.D. 2005 John T.

Migraines and the Migraine Syndrome

By [http://ezinearticles.com/?expert=J._Wes_Tanner,_MD] J. Wes Tanner, MD I feel tired. There I go yawning again. Why did I come into the bedroom anyway? I wish I could find that box of chocolates I stashed away. My neck sure is stiff today. That spot on my head is hurting again. It always starts hurting when I get one of those sick headaches! Oh, maybe its happening again! I can feel the throbbing pulsation on the side of my head and in my sinuses. I need to turn off that noisy radio and lie down. I believe I will draw the shades first. This room smells musty. Maybe thats whats nauseating me. I cannot think right now, so I might as well go to sleep. Oh my, my head is killing me. This patient has a common migraine headache. If presented with aura (usually visual disturbance or tingling of the skin prior to the headache), then this would be a classic migraine headache. A migraineur, a person who has a history of having migraines, may have variations on the presentation of headaches or other symptoms. Some headaches will not follow this pattern. This person falls into the [http://www.migrainesyndrome.net] migraine syndrome profile. Let me explain what I mean by the migraine syndrome. It is the outward expression of the bodys sensitivity to light, sound, smell, food, and/or stress. Some people are more sensitive than others; therefore, their reactions to different stimuli are greater. This sensitivity can be manifested in the body as migraines, sinus headaches, neck aches, palpitations, irritable bowel syndrome, motion sickness or vertigo, reactive hypoglycemia, temporomandibular joint syndrome (TMJ), panic attacks, and/or fibromyalgia. Now thats a mouthful! Understanding what is going on with you is very important in the healing process. J. Wes Tanner, MD, is a family practice and headache specialist who has been treating people for over 30 years. He has extensive experience in treating migraines and fibromyalgia with excellent success.

A Memory Technique To Help You Succeed on Exams

By Maria Markella The memory technique discussed in this article could help you improve your grades when writing exams. The technique is designed to empower the revision capabilities of an individual (aka you). So keep reading. When writing exams you need to recall large amount of information right on time. It is possible to overuse your brain during the process so here's a technique to help you succeed. What you need to do is create what I like to call an "Information Cloud". What is an Information Cloud? For every particular subject/chapter/book you study you need to create a list of important points. This will be your info-map. This list can be enhanced and grow in size as time goes by and you study even more. When studying for exams you usually need to read something twice or even more in order to understand and absorb the information. So when reading for the first time you can create a basic list outlining the most important things. By nature your brain will be ready to absorb more information easier the second time you read the information. Enhance your list and keep adding information to it. Make sure you take notes about all possible information contained in what you read so that it is available to you through the Information Cloud later. After finishing your list you can create labels for every significant point and rewrite the list in an ascending/descending order placing the most important information on top of your list. It's better to have a numbered list because otherwise you may forget a label on a line. By writing numbers next to the labels your brain automatically associates the number with the specific label thus, you have better chances of remembering every information contained in your cloud. After you're finished with all the writing it's time to create an image of your information cloud in your mind. Try to visualize the image of the paper in your mind. Imagine it full of information you've written with your hands. Imagine recalling all information from the cloud easily and effectively. Recalling information from the cloud can then be as easy as running through a mnemonic in your mind. At the end you will be ready to dominate every subject. Always keep your Information Cloud handy and look at it often to keep the image in your mind alive and kicking. So you are curious about memory improvement/enhancement techniques? Here's is Mr Amazing's memory guide that will help you to master your memory and improve your memory skills. Dr. Amazing is a world class mentalist.

Bank Employee Incentives vs. Mr. Public Consumer

By Debbie Hagan Banks rank their divisions, branches and employees as with every industry. Which branch is profiting. Which are losing? Which sell the most products/services? Which ones have the biggest increases/declines in each week, month, quarter, annually, etc. Its broken down by state, city, branch and even employee. Yes, many banks pay bonuses or commissions on services/products your teller cross-sells to you at your bank. If they hear you are going on a trip, they are rewarded when you purchase your travelers checks. Credit card applications can pay $30 to an employee. Refer a large depositor to purchase a CD and another $50. Many banks use the SIIM program provided by BVSinc.com. This software boasts it can increase fee income and offers employee/customer interaction tracking to assist in employee incentive programs. Clark Consulting offers something similar. Harte-Hanks applied its Allink Daily Deposit Builder which comes with a package of 80 pre-built business rules based on customer activity to the data at Fifth Third Bank. By analyzing what customers did weeks (and sometimes months) before they closed their accounts, Fifth Third was able to teach the program to recognize potential defection behavior, often 60 days in advance. Daily Deposit Builder also allowed Fifth Third to identify customers prime for additional products. Its opportunity program focuses on selling to those customers who appear likely to become more profitable, based on either demographics or increased account activity. says writer Richard Levey of Direct Magazine. His interview with Andrew Rosen, vice president and deposit product manager of Fifth Third Bancorp in Cincinnati, Ohio can be found at http://www.directmag.com/mag/marketing_sos_yields/. Fifth Third Bank measures teller performance on an individual basis. But the Cincinnati-based bank pays a set commission for each product or service sold. For example, a successful mortgage application reaps the referring teller $30, and a customer credit card application pays $25, said Bob Slaven, Fifth Third vice president and northeast Indiana retail regional manager stated in the Fort Wayne Journal Gazette written by Sherry Slater. Full time tellers are expected to accrue at least $150 in commissions each month. Part-time tellers have a $75 goal. They start each month with a clean slate. "It's very attainable," Slaven said. Fifth Third employees, who receive bonuses on a quarterly basis, are paid the amount they earn, even if it falls below the performance standard. And there's no cap on the upper end. Some tellers earn more than $1,000 a month merely from commissions, Slaven said. In March 2003, Fifth Third Bancorp reached an agreement with the Federal Reserve Bank of Cleveland and the Ohio Division of Financial Institutions to change its internal accounting practices. In November 2002, regulators began reviewing Fifth Third that forced the company to take $54 million charge in the third quarter of FY 2002. The regulatory oversight ended in March 2004. What about overdraft protection services? Are bank employees rewarded for each Overdraft Protection application customers fill out? What about the much talked about courtesy bounce protection programs? Are branch managers rewarded for increased fee income? Who is auditing Fee Income at our nations banks?
