Back to school tomorrow! Here's my "Satanic schoolgirl" getup... Unfortunately, the boots are so cheaply made that one of them started to fall apart while I was taking this photo, so I think I'm going to have to switch to my Docs when I leave the house.
Hair in pigtails with red elastics
MAC lipstick in "Russian Red"
Red long-sleeved shirt - ASOS
Black pleated skirt - Forever 21
Red tights (new) - Gap
Black platform shoes (new) - thrifted
These are my "least" favorite getups from this Deluxe Fashion Gift Set. Of course, I'm not snob when it comes to doll clothes. But obviously these are the fashions that made Frozen famous! You will see these getups on more merchandise and dolls than any others. I have a Disney Store version of this Elsa dress, and JC Penney ones of Anna and Kristoff's (despite not having those dolls sadly). Regardless, it's still very exciting seeing all three of these classic looks together in a photo, worn by Disney Store dolls! Kristoff once again has the best quality getup of this set. It's just as soft and cushiony as his Frozen II one. I also appreciate the addition of mittens and a hat. It's a shame that Sven wasn't incorporated into this pack...he's one Frozen character (besides Hans of course), that I feel my collection is really missing. Anna and Elsa's outfits are similar to their original 2013 Disney Store releases, but a tad cheaper (the fabrics are stiffer and flimsier feeling). I should also note that while the girls were given four outfits, they did not have shoes for all of the looks. Luckily, the shoes do mix and match quite well. I love how Colleen borrowed the ice from my L.O.L. and O.M.G. houses' refrigerators. They are perfect for Kristoff since his job was hauling ice!
Thick-billed Murres fly across the Arctic Bay, in a getup looking just like Penguins. The birds feed the community in the spring with their eggs, which they come out to collect off the cliff face (Watch Frozen Planet). — at Bylot Island Migratory Bird Sanctuary.
That's me, waiting for a boat ride back to station, out on the Wilkes Peninsula. It was such a sunny day, it looked great for a swim. even if the water temp was -1 degrees. That old Mustang Survival Suit is the required boating clothing. (taken by a friend with my camera)

SCENE ONE, Peter's House, 1:00 AM
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Peter woke up in bed, in shock... This happens right after the last comic.
Peter: *gasp*... Was that a dream?!
Peter's brain: Couldn't be... It felt so real... Is Gwen really dead?
Peter looked down at himself, and saw he was wearing his Spider-Man getup...
Peter's brain: Did I fall asleep in the suit?
Peter heard a voice call out to him...
Voice: I put it on you.
Peter: What the? Who's there?
A drawer next to Peter's bed opened, as a red and black symbiote came out of it...
Peter: Are... you that guy I fought last week? And IS Gwen actually dead?!
Symbiote: No and no. Not yet, for the second question. You fought someone calling themselves Carnage... I used to be Venom, part of Venom anyway. I was part of your black suit, and I managed to find you. Now that Venom is taken, you can call me Toxin.
Peter: O-Okay? What do you mean not yet?
Toxin: I'm simply warning you for what I know will happen... Maybe not exactly, but my species is cursed with vague knowledge of coming events. So I had to fill in the gaps myself... We'll see what happens together.
Peter: Why did you have to show me something so horrific?! That is emotionally scaring stuff.
Toxin: Well, we're not exactly friends. I want to turn you into one of us, look at how similar we look...
Toxin jumped from the drawer...
Toxin: We're practically different sides of the same coin. You on your side, and me and all your other demons on the other... Me, Venom, Carnage... Sandman, Rhino, Electro, Shocker... Doctor Octopus.
Peter: Why are you telling me this? How does this effect me?
Toxin: I can't say, exactly. I'm just saying be on the look out, and maybe your friend will pass. Something to think about.
Peter: What do you mean "you can't say"? Who's stopping you?!
Toxin moved their hand up with a finger, signifying telling Peter to stop talking...
Toxin: Not a who, but a what. My species thrived on death, if I told you exactly how to stop one? I'd be the one being killed.
Peter: Okay, and why would that be worse than my friend dying?
Toxin: Heh heh heh... You seriously think that I'd sacrifice myself for some random humans life?
Peter: Dude, you had the guts to show me my friend killing herself! Why do you have to be so selfish?
Toxin: ...
Toxin threw a punch at Spider-Man, but he blocked it.
Peter: ...Seriously?
Toxin: Less talking, more fighting.
Peter threw his fist at Toxin's stomach, which was a direct hit! Toxin flew back, but then charged forward, and punched Spider-Man in the jaw! Spider-Man used his webs to pull Toxin to the ground, but he got up right after. Spider-Man tried to kick Toxin, but he dodged it. Toxin then cut threw the chest of Spider-Mans costume with his claws! Spider-Man used his webs to swing from the ceiling and kick Toxin in the chest, knocking him back onto the ground!
Toxin: *uff*..!
Peter, arms crossed: You done yet?
Toxin: Do you think that's enough to save Stacy?
Toxin, still on the ground, kicked Peter's ankles and knocked him down! Toxin got back up, and stomped on Spider-Man's chest!
Peter: Ach!
Spider-Man got back up, and punched Toxin in the face! Toxin grabbed his jaw...
Toxin: Ugh... G-...Getting better..!
Spider-Man slid in between Toxin's legs, got up behind him, kicked him in the back, and knocked him down!
Toxin: *uff*! Nice work!
Peter: Thanks. Also your welcome for going easy on you.
Toxin: Heh... S-Sure you are.
Toxin got up, and tried to kick Peter in the chest! He dodged it, grabbed Toxin's leg, and pulled him back down!
Toxin: Ach!
Peter: Am I ready yet?
Toxin: N-...Not quite...
Toxin got back up one more time, but Spider-Man fired their webs at Toxins face as soon as he did, grabbed him by the foot, swung him around his bedroom, and threw him out the open window!
Toxin: Aghh!!!
Peter: Now?
Toxin: O-...O-Okay... Fine! I'll leave you alone...
Peter: Now don't come back!
Peter slammed the window shut... Aunt May shockingly managed to stay asleep through all of this!
SCENE TWO, Oscorp Building
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Late at night, Norman Osborn works on a project in Oscorp... Right now, he's finally completing it.
Norman: Yes... Yes! I've done it! The ultimate being to kill the Spider-Man.
He presses a button, which opens a large glass case in front of him, revealing a purple, brown and green suit, with a cape, boots, belt, ears, yellow eyes, all topped off with a long, pointed hat.
Norman: The Goblin armor.

Mainline food reformers might shake their heads at some of the “healthful” foods that Linkwell promotes. There are coupons for packaged Hormel Natural Choice deli meats, for example, and Smart Balance Buttery Spread, something food-reform author Michael Pollan might classify as a “foodlike substance.” Linkwell does have criteria about what foods it promotes. For example, a food cannot have more than 480 milligrams of sodium per serving and must have two grams or less of saturated fat per serving.
“We realize that Lean Cuisine is not a home-cooked, organic meal,” Gardner says. “We are a pragmatic solution that is not letting perfection get in the way of progress.”

Specialized coupon distribution promotes healthy eating
BY JANE BLACK
WASHINGTON POST SERVICE
www.miamiherald.com/2012/09/06/v-fullstory/2985602/specia...
Cook from scratch. Eat foods in season. Buy locally. That is the conventional wisdom on what Americans must do to become healthier.
Ben Gardner disagrees. The founder of Linkwell Health knows that Americans, especially those with chronic diseases, should eat better. Consumers with diabetes buy twice as many candy bars and more than twice as much Mountain Dew as their healthy peers, according to the research firm Nielsen, while those with heart disease buy 10 times as many frozen dinners.
But instead of trying to persuade these customers to purchase fresh produce and prepare a home-cooked meal, Linkwell offers them coupons for more healthful frozen dinners or diet soda. In short, it doesn’t let the ideal be the enemy of better eating, and the strategy is working.
Gardner’s approach reflects his background, which is healthcare, not food. Health insurers had spent decades building sophisticated, and expensive, disease-management programs. And yet, given the skyrocketing rates of obesity and chronic disease in the United States, it was clear that they couldn’t compete with slick marketing campaigns for chips, candy, soda and other unhealthful foods. Why not, Gardner thought, steal a page from the food companies’ playbook to encourage more healthful eating?
“Instead of sending someone a 100-page booklet, which nobody reads, about how to manage your health, why not just give them a coupon that they can actually use?” he says.
Americans do love coupons. More than 80 percent say they use coupons regularly, according to NCH Marketing, which tracks usage. In 2011, fueled by tough economic times, we redeemed $4.6 billion worth of coupons, a 12 percent rise over the previous year. Most of those, a quick peek through the Sunday paper will prove, are for unhealthful foods: soda, chips and snack cakes.
Gardner’s task was to target the consumers who most need to change the way they eat. The answer was to utilize an innovative program implemented by — wait for it — the U.S. Postal Service. When you move and file an official Postal Service change-of-address form, you can elect to receive useful discounts on moving trucks, household appliances, furniture and storage. It’s what you need, when you need it. (Gardner worked for several years at Imagitas, the company that designed and manages the postal program.)
To target needy consumers, Gardner reached out to health insurers, which have detailed health data on patients who struggle with their weight and diseases. He asked them to include healthful food coupons in their regular mailings. To protect patients’ privacy, Linkwell never sees the health data nor do the brands that sponsor the coupons.
Over the past four years, Linkwell has partnered with 20 health plans, including EmblemHealth, Humana, United Healthcare and WellPoint, which cover 120 million consumers, mailing about 100 million coupons from well-known brands such as General Mills, Kellogg’s, Kraft and Quaker Oats. The take-up rate — the number of consumers who use the coupons they receive — is more than double that for coupons in the Sunday newspaper circulars.
Linkwell also has run pilot programs in which grocery stores offer discounts on fresh produce or seafood. It is experimenting with promotions in which customers who buy a box of, say, Special K get $1 off fresh blueberries.
Mainline food reformers might shake their heads at some of the “healthful” foods that Linkwell promotes. There are coupons for packaged Hormel Natural Choice deli meats, for example, and Smart Balance Buttery Spread, something food-reform author Michael Pollan might classify as a “foodlike substance.” Linkwell does have criteria about what foods it promotes. For example, a food cannot have more than 480 milligrams of sodium per serving and must have two grams or less of saturated fat per serving.
“We realize that Lean Cuisine is not a home-cooked, organic meal,” Gardner says. “We are a pragmatic solution that is not letting perfection get in the way of progress.”
Nutritionists agree.
“It’s small, gradual changes that work best,” says Constance Brown-Riggs, a registered dietitian and a spokeswoman for the Academy of Nutrition and Dietetics.
“You do have some individuals that can turn everything around and empty their cupboard and load up on fresh fruit and vegetables and never eat anything from a can again. But there are many individuals who are unable to make those kinds of drastic lifestyle changes. The research shows that small changes do make a difference.”
Health insurers like the program because it is a simple way to nudge consumers toward better health. But it also encourages customers to open and read their healthcare plan information. Humana, for example, says it saw its “open rate” jump from 60 percent to 90 percent over the years it has worked with Linkwell. The coupons are sent out quarterly and also can be downloaded online. A service for mobile devices is in development.
For the food companies, Linkwell offers ultra-targeted marketing that the grocery circular can’t. Dreamfields Pasta, a specialty item designed for diabetics, says it gets double the redemption on coupons issued through Linkwell because it puts them in the hands of patients who need to manage their blood sugar.
Other, more mainstream, brands such as Quaker Oats and Sargento get a kind of halo effect because coupons for their product are packaged with information from a health-insurance company.
The goal, says Gardner, is to help consumers take control of their health. “Health care is a mystery to almost everyone. But coupons are a currency that everybody understands.”

.....item 3).... BiZz-R-O Cinema: "Get Ready to Get Weird" With WTF Films and $3 Beers ...

O Cinema is known (and loved) for its eclectic mix of weird, wacky and wildly artistic flicks, and now they're branching out into another genre. Namely, what the fuck? In their own words, that sums up the films in their new series, BiZz-R-O Cinema, kicking off on April 5.
.

The new lineup, programmed in partnership with the folks at Gutter Films, will offer a late-night glimpse into the offbeat, kitschy and "downright disturbing" for four Fridays in a row. Think serial killers, man-eating gators, and batshit crazy Scandinavians. You don't wanna miss it.

The first film, screening on Friday, April 5, is Alligator, a flick about a pet Florida gator who gets flushed down a Missouri toilet and ends up living on the corpses of dogs who were test subjects for growth hormones. You can probably infer the course of events.
Attendees are encouraged to "come dressed as your favorite Florida swamp dweller, be it a gator, flamingo, tacky tourist or snow bird."
According to Matt Walter, who programmed the series with colleague
Kevin Bosch, the concept came about based on a tradition of offbeat, late-night film programming that dates to the 1930s.

As far as selections, Walter wanted to get weird. Really weird.
"Fortunately there's little shortage of unusual films out there, but we want to make sure we're not just settling for the typical run-of-the-mill stuff," Walter says. "It's our job to not only select films that are both weird and good, but that leave you thinking 'Now that was weird!'"

Continued from page 1
While flicks are scheduled through April as of now, they're hoping it becomes an ongoing "weekend refuge for those who are overexposed to the mundane normalcy of the typical workweek for a night filled with beer-fueled cinematic madness," according to Walter. Normalcy = bad.
The experience is also designed to be interactive, with everything from costumes to cosplay being incorporated into the pre-screening festivities. The evenings will kick off at 10 p.m. with beers, BBQ, tunes and games in the theater's massive parking lot slash courtyard. $3 beer specials are also on the menu.

The rest of the month's lineup will feature The Shining on April 12, Kubrick's classic "Where's Johnny?" Jack Nicholson flick; Häxan on April 19, a surrealistic old-school Scandanavian silent film about superstition and mental illness; and Brazil on April 26, a 1985 British science fiction fantasy film.
So don your best swamp-dweller getup and get ready to let your inner freak out next Friday. Don't worry, Miami's best weirdos will be there right along with you.

Let's see here, two Rio dolls created, and now three versions of Riot. It looks like the beehive strikes again! This is the accurate version of the Riot that first gyrated onto the scene, in early ‘87, and he was quite busy during his first appearance, in “The Stingers Hit Town, Part One!” From his earth-shattering debut performance on stage with his Pop/Rock band, the Stingers, at Le Klub Kool, to his lucrative deal with Jerrica Benton and Eric Raymond for a recording contract, as well as the catfight he innocently caused between Pizzazz and her bandmates due to his unavoidable charm, right up to his sudden move into Starlight Mansion as Jem's guest, all tied together with the showdown of the decade with Rio in an attempt to win Jem's heart. He deliberately shook the foundation of California with a 5.0 on the richter scale! Recognized as one of the biggest fashion icons in Rock music history, Riot's wardrobe reflects his mood and overall persona, especially in “The Stingers Hit Town, Part Two”, where he donned both his Glam-Rock outfit and his dazzling royalty outfit, though he wore the Glam-Rock outfit first. Riot's black and yellow getup has an appeal that even Minx and Rapture couldn't deny! The young girls at the Starlight Mansion were thrilled at the coolness of his style, and jumped for joy while clamoring together at the bottom of the steps to greet the king bee and his band as they emerged from their guest rooms. Unfortunately, Riot only spent an hour in his jaw-dropping threads before Ashley accidentally ruined the jacket by spilling a drink on it. Then, when criticized by Aja for his attitude, Riot uttered verbatim: “A man as perfect as myself cannot tolerate even the slightest imperfection in his possessions!” The damage to his Glam-Rock outfit gave him the go-ahead to roll out yet another magnificent number from his wardrobe: the Rock 'n' Roll Royalty outfit, as first seen inside the study room at Starlight Mansion while he hunkered down to discuss business with Jerrica who, by the way, was the very first person to witness him in all of his regal grandeur, and was also the first person to admit that she could “Take It or Leave It!” Riot didn't waste a moment showing off his duds to his fans outside on the lawn of the mansion where he was met by Eric Raymond and a record deal for half of Misfits Music if he signed with him. What was Riot to do? Sure, “Stingers Sound Studios” had a nice ring to it, but with Eric involved, you're sure to sign over your soul and Jerrica knew that, which was why she begged him not to be taken in by the flash and glitter of Eric's proposal. Riot listened to both sides, and then decided to turn the tables on Jerrica by proposing his own deal for half of Starlight Music instead! With Eric and the Misfits trespassing on Jerrica's property, and a swarm of rabid fans stampeding behind, Riot stood eye to eye with the blond pixie and reiterated his deal to own half of her company. The Holograms added their support as they stood posed beside her and offered their advice. And, after a brief lecture from Raya, Jerrica decided that she would not give in. Once he scored all three signatures in blood, Eric had finally conquered the Pop princess with the Stingers as his new musical act! That same day, the phone rang at Starlight Mansion with Riot on the other end and a proposition that would enable only one person to change his mind—Jem! So Jerrica gladly agreed to send Jem to meet with him at the Wind Harp. An hour later, Jem arrived with the impression that she was going to seal the deal, but Riot had something else up his sleeve and that was to force her to be his sole lover! Trailing a few feet behind undetected was Rio who had followed her in his van to their destination and soon discovered her in Riot's arms. Stupefied by her actions, Rio walked over and declared that, if the Stingers and Riot were so important to her, then he would disappear! Overwrought and distraught, Jem assured Rio that Riot was not for her, but he drove away, leaving her in tears! A few minutes later, Jem arrived at the one place she assumed Rio would be, the ruins of Starlight House, and declared her undying love for him. Now comfy and settled in at Stingers Sound Recording Headquarters, Riot assumed position as head boss and asked for Pizzazz and the Misfits to cut the first record for his company. Even though he fell short of his goal to win Jem's heart, his failed attempts didn't go unnoticed by the songstress, and the two have since developed a very close and trustworthy friendship. His rivalry with Rio Pacheco had spawned a great deal of hatred towards the purple-haired papi due to his deep affection for Jem. But that too had softened overtime. And by Spring of ‘88, the love triangle dissolved and they made an official truce. As a man of strength and determination, Riot became a new and improved human being, one who's more caring, helpful, and less self-involved. Happiness was found in the arms of Jerrica and Rio, while the blond hornet went on to swoon and sway half the female population of California!
Integrity Toys' Design Team has created an exact replica of Royalty Riot for all to enjoy, and it's about damn time, too! Seriously, the designers went above and beyond with the details—big and small—creating such a strikingly gorgeous fashion doll in addition to the other three Summer exclusives. Riot's Hungarian skin tone perfectly mirrors his true appearance in the show and blends well with his dark brown eyebrows, his glitzy eye makeup, eye color, and pink lips! Something interesting that I noticed while examining him was the similarity in eye structure with Sean Harrison. Both dolls come with bright colorful rings on the iris of their eyes! With Riot, the Design Team created a mixture of dazzling green rings blended together with a line of orangish brown, giving both eyes a strong, hypnotic quality! And I really like his side-eyed glance; I find it more interesting than the usual face forward glare. He looks so nonchalant. In addition to his skin tone and eyes, the Design Team chose to move in a different direction with another great feature worth noting: his hair! This time, the long blond locks from the first edition are traded in for a platinum blond mop as depicted in the show. His wildly-fluffed peroxided hair places him at eye level among the top celebrated ‘80s hair heroes of the era! There are two outfits for Riot, both of which are stitched with fine material and sparkling fabrics, hot off the production line, pressed and ready for his up-and-coming concert tour! First up, his flashy military-inspired ensemble. What a fierce jacket! The sleeveless, glittery gold undergarment is as equally snazzy, but again, it's all about the glamorous waistcoat! The gleaming red material has clumps of bling, and the gold embedded buttons down both sides of the collar really class it up. Let's not forget the accents of gold designs that trail nicely along the edges of the coat and around both cuffs! My goodness, call the Smithsonian Museum because obviously they are missing a valuable piece of Rock history! Such an iconic piece of fashion could be a costly deduction in dividends, even for Mr. Perfection himself! However, this is Riot that we're talking about, so I'm sure it all equals out to a mere bag of shells. The overall design strangely resembles something of a sharply-dressed, new age pirate lol. Actually, I'm getting more of a Michael Jackson vibe, circa 1984! Everything fits just right! Riot's only problem is risking a major wardrobe malfunction to his tight leather pants while kickin', crouchin' and stompin' around live on stage. These sexy trousers come in dark blue with a thin gold rope-like stripe down both sides, and a black leather belt with a thick gold buckle! Oooooh, and I must commend these tall, pointy-toed black boots! Let me just say that I appreciate the lack of difficulty when zipping them up around his strong, masculine legs! Both boots are fastened up with beautiful gold buckles that ride down the outer sides and onto the upper toe area.
Now, moving on to the alternate outfit. It’s hot, but doesn't exactly outshine the first. On the other hand, I appreciate the execution of his black gold-studded jacket, his cute purple tank top, black fishnet tank top, and his heat-seeking black/gold pants with vertical stripes! The accessories are fruitful and include a black glittery gold headband, a bright yellow animal-print scarf, an arm garter, a thick black shiny belt with gold studs, and a pair of big, shiny black boots with gold studs! This bad boy of Rock is rolling deep with his very own private dressing room to relax in between shows, but most of all, to keep the fanatical groupies at bay. Inside his immensely large dressing room contains pieces that run the gamut! There's plenty to go around, including a neon yellow acrylic stool, clothing hangers, a huge wall mirror to check his appearance, and a spacious closet to store his exuberant collection of priceless costumes. This is highly protected territory fit for a self-indulgent king! I'm honestly astounded at the magnitude of this backstage set, and again, I must extend my gratitude to the Design Team for all four sizable Summer gifts!
Riot was enthroned as the media's dark knight and exudes a mystique that has consumed many ravenous subjects. Hollywood reporters, the press, and paparazzi have all placed a bill of sale to attain his background bio, but only a few people are fortunate enough to possess such valuable information. His daily motto, “Go big or go the f**k home”, has echoed and seeped through millions of walls and floors within stadiums worldwide! Fans pay big money for their concert tickets and often travel from far and wide to experience the sweaty, foggy, aromatic effusion of his purple rain. Riot values his loyal fans, but also demands respect, especially from friends, industry figures, and fellow entertainers alike! Life is carefree for Rory, but things weren't always cherry pie for the musician. After receiving a dishonorable discharge from the Army for going AWOL, resulting in instantaneous disownment by his father, Riot, along with his bandmates, Rapture and Minx, later experienced a laborious career as struggling musicians on the frigid streets of Europe. It was definitely a tough period for all three musicians. Fast forward to their very first performance on the smoke-filled, neon lit stage of Le Klub Kool, and the mounds of wall to wall admirers who stood waiting and anticipating the chance to reach out and touch their knight and shining prince. The quest for stardom was not only beneficial, but was also worth every drop of sweat and tears. Although Riot does not derive from royalty, he comes across as aristocratic, has a lot of bravado, and prefers the finer things in life. Most of his success stems from time served as a soldier; a time in life when self-discipline reigned supreme, and hard work was based on merit alone. A man of dignity, Riot prides himself on being a chick magnet, and often refers to himself as a devastatingly gorgeous heartbreaker who refuses to believe that carrying a mirror at all times has anything to do with conceit! Many people consider him to be dashing and handsome, but others have experienced his arrogant and possessive nature. I mean, when you're the biggest Pop-rocker in the business with five consecutive hits on Billboards Top Twenty, well, now, it's only natural for such a human to gloat! Having conquered the music industry early on, Riot shows no signs of slowing down anytime soon, as proof of the countless recording plaques on his office wall and inside his storage closet both of which are full of Grammy Awards, American Music Awards, and MTV Awards. This musical heartthrob has enjoyed immeasurable success in his career, and he's still going strong!
In Rory's heyday, he pushed the boundaries of Rock's lyricism and made himself into a living legend. LA cool, baritone voice, tortured personality, and yes, sexy leather pants, Llewelyn indeed helped define the Glam-Rock persona for the last stretch of the decade! I have been awaiting the tall, dark and handsome version of this heavyweight musical titan, and now he's mine, aaaaall miiiiine! 🍯

These two men are all dressed up in traditional Tibetan getup, because the Dalai Lama is in town, and they're planning to go and listen to his teachings. Until then, their shop is open for business.
Unhelpful travel tip: Tibetan men look extremely natty in fedora hats, trilbies, and stetsons. As a rule, the better a man looks in one of these hats, the more likely he is to be either a) Tibetan or b) Frank Sinatra.
