Make Me Laugh Monday

2012-01-23T00:01:00.001-05:00

Water or Coke??

Here are some interesting, but scary facts about some of my favorite beverages!!

Water-

#1. 75% of Americans are chronically dehydrated. (Likely applies to half the world population)

#2. In 37% of Americans, the thirst mechanism is so weak that it is mistaken for hunger.

#3. Even MILD dehydration will slow down one's metabolism 3%.

#4. One glass of water will shut down midnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied in a University of Washington study.

#5. Lack of water, the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.

#6. Preliminary research indicates that 8-10 glasses of water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.

#7. A mere 2% drop in body water can trigger fuzzy short-term memory, trouble with basic math, and difficulty focusing on the computer screen or on a printed page.
#8. Drinking 5 glasses of water daily decreases the risk of colon cancer by 45%, plus it can slash the risk of breast cancer by 79% and one is 50% less likely to develop bladder cancer. Are you drinking the amount of water you should drink every day?

Coke-

#1. In many states the highway patrol carries two gallons of Coke in the trunk to remove blood from the highway after a car accident.

#2. You can put a T-bone steak in a bowl of Coke and it will be gone in two days.

#3. To clean a toilet: Pour a can of Coca-Cola into the toilet bowl and let the 'real thing' sit for one hour, then flush clean. The citric acid in Coke removes stains from vitreous china.

#4. To remove rust spots from chrome car bumpers: Rub the bumper with a rumpled-up piece of Reynolds Wrap aluminum foil dipped in Coca-Cola.

#5. To clean corrosion from car battery terminals: Pour a can of Coca-Cola over the terminals to bubble away the corrosion.

#6. To loosen a rusted bolt: Apply a cloth soaked in Coca-Cola to the rusted bolt for several minutes.

#7. To bake a moist ham: Empty a can of Coca-Cola into the baking pan, wrap the ham in aluminum foil, and bake. Thirty minutes before ham is finished, remove the foil, allowing the drippings to mix with the Coke for a sumptuous brown gravy.

#8. To remove grease from clothes: Empty a can of Coke into the load of greasy clothes, add detergent, and run through a regular cycle. The Coca-Cola will help loosen grease stains. It will also clean road haze from your windshield.

FOR YOUR INFORMATION:

#1. The active ingredient in Coke is phosphoric acid. It will dissolve a nail in about four days. Phosphoric acid also leaches calcium from bones and is a major contributor to the rising increase of osteoporosis.

#2. To carry Coca-Cola syrup (the concentrate) the commercial trucks must use hazardous Material place cards reserved for highly corrosive materials.

#3. The distributors of Coke have been using it to clean engines of the trucks for about 20 years!

Now the question is, would you like a glass of water or coke?

Better Vision Education With Zeiss

2012-01-20T16:23:00.002-05:00

Eye examinations are an important part of health maintenance. Based on vision tests, an eye care professional prescribes the optimum lenses to help sharpen vision. Having the right lenses is critical to seeing and experiencing life to the fullest.

I have worn glasses for many years. I think I was 10 when I got my first pair. Being a kid, it's tough to wear glasses. Especially while you are playing sports (I was a soccer goalie!!)

My Husband has been wearing glasses just as long. We both are somewhat experts!! Or so we thought!!

Zeiss Vision has a great website with learning tools to teach you all the things you need to know about your eyes, and what your eye doctor should be looking for.

They list the facts you need to know about Vision and Lenses, including the three o's-

a.An Optometrist performs eye examinations and writes prescriptions for corrective lenses. Most Optometrists can diagnose and treat many medical eye conditions and prescribe certain medications.

b.An Ophthalmologist is a medical doctor treating the full range of eye diseases and conditions. Ophthalmologists perform surgery for cataracts and other eye conditions.

c.An Optician fills the prescription from the optometrist or ophthalmologist and specializes in fitting eyeglasses and providing lenses to correct vision problems.

The website also lists everything you need to know to prepare you for your next eye exam.

Head over to Zeiss' Educational Tools website to learn more, and better educate yourself.

My Alibi Clothing- Pledge Your Support

2012-01-16T18:47:00.001-05:00

Right now, My Alibi is looking for pledges to help them fund the production of the Strappy Cami and Reversible Skirt in 3 colors and 6 sizes each. Both are available as rewards!

The Reversible Skirt is the most highly anticipated piece as it offers simplicity of style in a flattering cut with two layers of ultra-fine fabric that brings high end performance without feeling "athletic". Designed with bike function in mind, but versatile enough to go from the office, to a night out, while ready to hit a the trail. (Previously sold out). Noted as an amazing travel skirt as it dries fast, won't hold wrinkle and boasts two colors in skirt with a quick flip.

Feel Beautiful on a Bike

My Alibi Clothing supports the balance of individual femininity and sustainable community by inspiring women to integrate the bike into their lifestyle. High quality apparel that merges the performance functionality to be comfortable on a bike with styles that are classic, differentiates My Alibi Clothing. By retaining high values of social responsibility, environmental awareness, durability, fit, function and style, we hope to earn your brand loyalty and look forward to having you on our team.

Are My Alibi Clothing only for riding bikes?

No. But by bringing the functionality to be comfortable on a bike to your everyday active wardrobe, I hope to inspire you to integrate the bike into your lifestyle. I hope you will want to wear this line everyday, and I am sure you will find it great from yoga to office and everything in between.

Whether you ride less then 2 miles a week or more then 200, it is not about turning everyone into cyclists, but realizing that the bike is a viable form of transportation, and a key element to a more sustainable world. With 70% of American trips by car being under 2 miles and 30% of the population being obese there is no doubt about the correlation. My Alibi Clothing makes the bike more accessible to women by allowing her to retain her style by bringing the functional elements to her wardrobe so she can have confidence to feel beautiful on the bike.

By committing to a pre-sale order now, you will be sure to be one of the first to experience just how versatile your wardrobe can become, and you will have full bragging rights that you helped make it happen. By getting all of your friends on board and helping us raise 400% of our Kickstarter goal, you will help get the entire line produced this year, allowing me to get back to designing so that next year My Alibi can offer more innovative new styles to inspire women to pedal with a smile.

Why does it cost so much to produce these products?

In order to produce this line in Morocco, keeping all the above mentioned high values intact, there are very high minimums: 1000pieces/style!!! So by meeting the goal of $50,000 we are able to produce the Strappy Cami and Reversible Skirt in 3 colors and 6 sizes. In order to release the full 8 piece line (7 new pieces plus the Bloomers) we need to raise $200,000 just to cover production and shipping expenses!!!

Why Produce in Morocco?

I have found a factory there that allows me to produce the highest quality product (made with high end performance and fashion conscious craftsmanship) using the high end performance fabrics from our French mill, while paying a living wage and being kind to the environment. All of this so that I can offer you the very best products at a reasonable price. After many trials in both the China and the USA, I am confident and proud of to work with this factory.

THANK YOU!!

I believe the communities that are supporting My Alibi Clothing understand that building a brand is far beyond just making products, so I hope you will join me to exceed these goals to insure a proper foundation for continuing further product development, hiring a team, and getting the products out in stores from Soho to Portland and everywhere in between.

Have input?

By supporting at the $10K level, I will come to your town and put on a focus group for you and friends to learn more about your specific needs and ideas then design a product around this input. Of course, this level of participation may not be in your budget so if you have ideas and input you want to share, please shoot me an email at info@myalibiclothing.com. The goal is to create products for real women so your feedback is really important to me.

There are some pretty neat prizes to be had for donating. Head over here, and check it out!!

Degree Jungle- Online Colleges

2012-01-12T14:33:00.003-05:00

I have debated about going back to school a lot over the years. Of course life gets in the way.

Like most people, I have a lot on my plate right now. With two jobs, two kids, a husband and a world of other things, I can not attend a school full time.

I am also nervous about all those online schools you read about that you do the work on your own time, or just Saturdays etc.

How are you supposed to know if they are an accredited school, and that you will actually walk away with a degree that employers are looking for??

That's where Degree Jungle comes in. They do all the research for you, and verify that the schools listed are schools with accreditation and are what they say they are.

You can search for schools with all different degree level types (Masters, Bachelors, Associates etc) and all different courses to choose from (Liberal Arts, Business etc)

There are a lot of options out there, that will fit your schedule.

If you are looking to get back to school, go for the first time, or help someone else, give Degree Jungle a try.

Into The Woods- New Feature Film With Disney

2012-01-12T11:28:00.000-05:00

ROB MARSHALL SET TO DEVELOP “INTO THE WOODS” FEATURE FILM WITH DISNEY

LUCAMAR Productions Inks Multi-Year First-Look Deal With The Walt Disney Studios

Rob Marshall is set to direct a film adaptation of the acclaimed Broadway musical “Into the Woods,” featuring Stephen Sondheim’s original music, for The Walt Disney Studios, to be produced by Marshall and John DeLuca through their production company LUCAMAR Productions. James Lapine, who wrote the stage musical with Stephen Sondheim, will adapt for the screen.

The project is in development under a new multi-year producing deal between Disney and LUCAMAR.

“We are thrilled to be collaborating with Stephen Sondheim and James Lapine on this extraordinary and inspiring work,” said Rob Marshall and John DeLuca. “We are greatly looking forward to continuing our creative and rewarding relationship with Rich Ross, Sean Bailey and the ever supportive team at Disney.”

“Rob Marshall brought his signature flair to ‘Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides’ with tremendous results and he is the perfect person to bring ‘Into the Woods’ to the screen,” Studio Chairman Rich Ross and President of Production Sean Bailey said in a statement. “We’ve loved working with Rob, and this is a great start to our collaboration with LUCAMAR.”

Rob Marshall most recently directed Disney’s “Pirates of the Caribbean: On Stranger Tides,” which earned over $1 billion at the global box office and is the #8 highest grossing film of all time, the #3 film of 2011, and Disney’s biggest overseas release ever. It was the first “Pirates” film to be shot in 3D and the first major production at any studio to be shot in 3D on location. Marshall’s critically acclaimed stage musical adaptation “Chicago” (2002) grossed over $300 million worldwide and was nominated for 13 Academy Awards, winning six including best picture, with Marshall earning a nomination for best director. It also won the Golden Globe for best comedy/musical. His other feature films include “Memoirs of a Geisha” (2005), winner of three Academy Awards, and “Nine” (2009), which was nominated for four Academy Awards and five Golden Globes. Marshall is a four-time Emmy Award winner and a six-time Tony Award nominee, including choreographing and co-directing the 1998 Broadway revival of “Cabaret.”

“Into the Woods” weaves together the story of several of the most beloved fairytales (Cinderella, Little Red Riding Hood, Jack and the Beanstalk, Rapunzel) into the original story of a Baker and his wife who try to reverse a curse on their family in order to have a child, exploring the consequences of the characters’ wishes and quests and their desire for “happily ever after.” With music and lyrics by Stephen Sondheim and book and direction by James Lapine, “Into the Woods” earned 10 nominations at the 1988 Tony Awards, winning three including best score and best book of a musical. The 2002 Broadway revival won a Tony for best revival of a musical.

Sondheim and Lapine’s other collaborations include 1984’s Tony-winning “Sunday in the Park With George,” which won the Pulitzer Prize for Drama, and 1994’s “Passion,” winner of four Tonys including best musical. Sondheim has won eight Tony Awards, more than any other composer, as well as several Grammy Awards and an Academy Award, while Lapine has earned seven Tony nominations for direction and is a three-time winner (out of four nominations) for best book of a musical.

LUCAMAR most recently produced the film adaptation of the Broadway musical “Nine,” starring Daniel Day-Lewis, Nicole Kidman, Penélope Cruz, and Marion Cotillard, which was nominated for four Academy Awards and five Golden Globes. LUCAMAR also produced the star-studded, NBC television event “Tony Bennett: An American Classic,” which won seven Emmy Awards, the most of any nominated show that season. The company is headed by co-presidents Rob Marshall and John DeLuca, with Michael Zimmer serving as director of development.

Marshall and DeLuca are represented by Kevin Huvane and Brian Siberell at CAA and Michael Gendler of Gendler & Kelly.
