8/12/2023 0 Comments Female fashion faux pas![]() ![]() So, my fellow globe-trotters, consider this your lucky day because I’m about to save you from my fashion faux pas. Trust me, after living here for a while, you can spot a tourist from a mile away, just by their attire! I’ve evolved from a fashion novice to someone who can now confidently say I blend in with the stylish Parisian crowd. Related read: What living in Paris as an American is *actually* likeīut fast-forward four years, and things have changed drastically. And as a bright-eyed expat, I stuck out like a sore thumb in my home comforts. It’s a place where everyday life feels like a walk on a fashion runway. You see, Paris is not just any city it’s a fashion capital where your attire is a statement. You’ll be impressing everyone that you come across.My idea of dressing up was a pair of comfy sweatpants and my favorite band tee – oh, the naivety, the horror! But oh boy, Paris was a swift and stylish teacher. Get measured by professionals, and take clothes to tailors to have them fit you perfectly. Put your best face forward by taking some time to figure out what styles suit your body type the best. The last thing you want to do is tell someone you are immature because of your clothing choices. The way we look is the first thing that people notice about us. You don’t want to look like a 13 year old showboating their favorite store. If you aren’t sure you can pull this off, then leave it alone. It’s not that this can’t be artfully done, but it takes a lot of skill and professional touch. Overly Branded Clothing: Young kids should be the only ones that wear clothes that have the name brand plastered across it. ![]() Having one or two relaxed buttons at the top is the way to go. Too many buttons, and you’ll need a pocket protector. Too few buttons is screaming for attention, which makes you look juvenile. Buttons: Oxford shirts are classics, but buttoning too few or too many buttons can make you look silly.You can accessorize with a few cheaper trendy items if you must. Invest in some articles of clothing that are high quality. ![]() It’s better to wear a boring high quality shirt, than to have a loud, cheap shirt. Poor quality clothes will wrinkle easily, feel tough, and fall apart in the wash.

A small living room and a center fireplace Get creative with angles and shapes and introduce some oval and round pieces and placing some of your furniture at an angle. ![]() Your living room might be square but your furniture arrangements certainly don’t have to be. But remember to take advantage of the heaps of legroom by pulling furniture away from the walls, creating little conversation zones/nooks with chaises around a stylish coffee table, etc. Anchor it with a rug and let it border your furnishings’ lines. To make furnishing it easier on yourself, define the space around your fireplace. There is such a thing as a room that’s too big. Put clever thought into where you scatter them around the room as they can help provide a sense of space without crowding the room. A fireplace in a long living roomĪvoid your elongated living space feeling like a hallway by starting with your smaller pieces like bookcases, accent tables, ottomans, etc. Remember that painter’s tape we mentioned earlier? That is also a good way to establish whether or not you leave adequate legroom for moving in-between pieces, as relocating painter’s tape is certainly quicker and easier than moving large furniture pieces.

8/12/2023 0 Comments Dodo birds prof lyrics![]() Could it be square? Maybe a cylinder?Īs he learns more, the more he begins to find questions in the answers he's uncovered. Things aren't always what they seem.Īs we were all convinced that the Earth used to be flat, now we are convinced it is round. The lyrics indicate what I believe to reflect Dave's critical thinking style. You say who did, well you did, it’s you Reason: If all the things that you are saying love This little game where nothing is sure, oh That is generally what this song is about.Īs we all once were when the world was flat We can change who we are no matter how abject our condition seems. What is apparent at any one moment is not necessarily an everlasting truth set in stone. If we had not adapted our perception and understanding of the world over time then we as a civilization might've gone the way of the Dodo as well. We thought the world was flat, we thought the earth was the center of the universe, we thought the gods were the direct cause of the spectacular thunder bolts come down from the sky in each case (and in many more subtle and more personal ones) we were wrong, though at the time it really looked as though we were right. It acknowledges the limits of our perception, and given the fact that our perception has proven many times to be limited (and so also inaccurate) we should not put too much stock in, let's say, a perception of ourselves as being inadequate, hopelessly lost, etc. Dave Matthews' lyrics are commonly addressing people who have lost their way in life, and this song is another take on that sentiment, great as it is. The word "Dodo" now is equated with being stupid, and would be most accurately used to describe somebody who stubbornly persists with the same stupid behavior even though the consequences of that behavior would influence any intelligent person to change their ways. The Dodo was once a creature of whom became extinct because it did not have what it took to survive in its particular environment at the time, and it refused to adapt to it's new surroundings. Mainly this song is about being stubborn in the face of a need for change in one's life. Oh I wonder this as life billows smoke inside my head Were true enough but still what is all the worrying about If all the things that you are saying, love When was it killed, the very last dodo birdĪnd was she aware she was the very last one This little game where nothing is sure, oh, So I wonder this as life billows smoke inside my head We're as sure of that as we all once were when the world was flat Once upon a time when the world was just a pancakeįears would arise that if you went too far, you'd fallīut with the passage of time it all became more of a ball ![]() 8/12/2023 0 Comments Best foam tiles![]() ![]() There is a two-pack or a four-pack available.They come in the colors of charcoal, burgundy, and red. ![]()

I’m happy I decided to add Wagasa Twirl to my lipstick collection. The shadows didn’t swatch well in store and the palette was super tiny so I’ll stick to the lip products from this collection. We are glad to provide you with excellent dental services while also respecting your privacy. I had original planned on purchasing the eyeshadow palette release in this collection but I decided against it. According to a study carried out by Oney & OpinionWay, 93 of Spanish consumers say they try to adopt habits related to responsible consumption. I tried it on in store and it would be a fun summer shade so I’ll hopefully grab it soon – (MAC isn’t cheap so I gotta save up). I’ve got my eye on Framboise Moi, it’s a light berry shade and it’s gorgeous. ![]() I plan on purchasing at least one more lipstick shade in this collection. Wagasa Twirl was the shade I would get the most use of so I picked it up. I really liked all the lipstick shades released in the Boom, Boom, Bloom collection. The closest shade in my makeup collection to Wagasa Twirl was Too Faced Make Me Blush from the Peach and Cream collection. I can apply different glosses over it to make it darker or feel more like a cream. Wagasa Twirl isn’t a particularly unique shade but I really like it. I’m very glad to see MAC releasing collection that are more eye-catching. I’m usually not drawn to MAC lipsticks because of the boring, matte black packaging. This packaging is so pretty, I was tempted to buy every item in this collection (but I restrained myself). While the color is nice, not having other options is limiting and may not work for experimental makeup wearers. The case is covered in pink petals that look like cherry blossoms. This bullet is stunning! The white case has a beautiful, iridescent pink shift – (I wish the actual lipstick had the same finish). I purchased Wagasa Twirl for $24.00 CAD, ($19.50 USD).Īnd now for the main event – the gorgeous packaging. Wagasa Twirl contains 0.10oz/3.0g of product. BOOM Cosmetics Updated version because Boom sticks are something I tried a few years ago, then last year, and then again now. ![]() I found Wagasa Twirl didn’t transfer much but it needed to be reapplied completely after eating. I own matte lipsticks that are far more comfortable. It wasn’t uncomfortable to wear but I was aware of the product on my lips when I wore it without a gloss. Like most matte lipsticks, Wagasa Twirl is not a hydrating lipstick. Once applied this lipstick didn’t settle into the lines on my lips – (hallelujah). It was possible to smooth the product out but I would recommend wearing a gloss over this lipstick. My lips have been on the drier side lately and the product definitely clung to the dry patches on my lips. Even just swatching this lipstick felt like a had to “warm up” the lipstick so to speak. Wagasa Twirl applied well, it went on nearly opaque with one swipe. Wagasa Twirl is so pretty and pink! It really is the perfect spring shade.

We are just south of Albany (NY), and while the majority of A&P stores had closed in the early 1980's around here, there was one lonely one in Wynantskill (small village just outside of Troy) that lasted until April of 1997. Those towns you list sound like ones that could be small, possibly the type with only one supermarket in the town (as are most of the ones I list below). Not too surprising that A&P had scattered stores elsewhere like you mention. Was an inability to compete with Price Chopper one of the main reasons why Acme pulled out of the area? Delete Did all of the region's Acmes close in late 1994 or early 1995, along with all remaining Acme supermarkets in New York State? (I believe this to be the case, though I am not 100% sure.) I am surprised that Acme had so much trouble in Northeastern PA in the mid-1990s if there were so few big chains to compete with. The Albertsons Florida Blog webmaster alluded to the fact that Acme had a presence in Northeastern PA in the 1980s. ![]() (This would imply that the Mount Pocono store was still open, although this individual could have parked her car in the parking lot of a supermarket which had closed.) The Mount Pocono supermarket may very well have been the last supermarket to operate under the A&P name in Pennsylvania. There is a decent chance that the Mount Pocono store was still open in October 1996, since a 10/25/96 newspaper article mentioned the prior evening's theft of the wheel covers of somebody's car in the Mount Pocono A&P parking lot. The Tamaqua store closed on July 31, 1992, and the Lehighton supermarket shut its doors on October 22, 1994. A Februad in The Pottsville Republican listed the following A&P locations: Branch Township, Brodheadsville, Hughesville, Lehighton, Mount Pocono, Tamaqua, Towanda, and Tunkhannock. Regarding A&P, they were still operating stores in Northeastern PA into the 1990s (which never converted to Super Fresh), although I do not know if any of them were that close to the Stroudsburg area. (Worcester) ones were an acquisition of a small chain years ago, and they have a few still in the Berkshires (though the smaller ones there have closed in the last few years) but nothing in between (Springfield), even when the opportunity came up (A&P locations when they left that area, including some pretty new stores). Not certain how they got into this (PA) area - I know the Mass. I know I've seen this decor in at least a couple stores but not sure off the top of my head which ones, though one may have been the Hudson (Greenport) store that closed and is now ShopRite (with the flag design behind the name on the glass front, even though that is the more square style unlike this one with the point). There is also at least one other small store that hasn't been redone (Cohoes) last I knew. and Madison Ave.) that are both very small (probably dating back to Central Markets days, and in areas where expansion/replacement is not an option). They also managed to renovate two stores in Albany proper (Delaware Ave. They have started to (slowly) convert them to that Market 32 banner, but it seems to have kind of "stalled out" as of late, though we also have at least two (Chatham and Shaker Road in Albany) that are signed as Price Chopper but opened (a replacement for a store they bought from Grand Union, the other an enlarged former Grand Union in that order) just a short time before the new name was announced, and those two have decor very similar to the Market 32 style. Obviously, we have a large number of Price Chopper stores around here, being just a bit south of Albany (which is only a few miles from Schenectady). ![]() 8/12/2023 0 Comments Defcon 4 movie nude![]() ![]() Each patient presents a different reaction, involving sex.

FIFA 16 (Lionel Messi)įIFA's weird love for having players looking as though they are aimlessly running around continued in FIFA 16, although the cover itself was still good. The rest of the graphic lacks some imagination, with white really taking over and a lack of exciting and vibrant colours. Vintage Paul Scholes on the cover of FIFA 01. It's almost there for FIFA 19, hopefully they deliver in spades for FIFA 20. Cristiano Ronaldo is a beast of a player but this weird running pose doesn't do him any favours. Love the colour change and the vibrant blue but again the image choice is what lets this one down. Still solid, but more could have been done. It also has some similarities to FIFA 11. The design and image choice is very similar to that of FIFA 10 and means the two covers are almost identical. This is a solid cover for a number of reasons (see FIFA 10) however it lacks some originality. If it wasn't for the star power of those involved it would have slipped further. Well, put them all in awkward running poses and you just take away a little bit of the shine. FIFA 04 (Alessandro Del Piero, Thierry Henry and Ronaldinho)Īny cover with these three star players would just about me a sure-fire hit. Above is the Aussie version with Tim Cahill. Surely they could find something better of the great man. The background design is slick and classy, however the chosen picture of Lionel Messi is a bit bizarre. ![]() FIFA 14 (Lionel Messi)Īnother cover that had all the makings of something excellent but just got let down by image choice. There was some attempted flair with the design surrounding the players, however it came off looking a little weird if we're being honest. This was FIFA's first array into the world of the PS3 and although it was a solid idea, the cover of FIFA 08 didn't quite hit the mark. Patrick Viera is looking okay at the front of the image, crossed arms with the captain's band on, however Fernando Morientes and Andriy Shevchenko are just looking a bit strange. Speaking of weird images, the cover of FIFA 05 features some of the best. FIFA 05 (Patrick Viera, Fernando Morientes and Andriy Shevchenko) We assume he is kicking a football but you can't really tell, he could just as easily be practising the can-can. The idea of the cover is alright, with the Borussia Dortmund star with his crowd in the background, but the execution isn't quite there. I'm sorry Marco Reus, but what was going on here.
