<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><em>Vedrica</em>- Wise land</p>
<p>The vision of Vedrica is to co-create a settlement of people using the creation story as told by Anastasia in book 4 of the Ringing Cedars of Russia Series.</p>
<p><em>The creator had a divine dream to create something greater than self. This dream started a conversation amongst all the diverse energies of the universe. They asked the creator, ‘What do you desire”? ‘Co-creation and joy for all from it’s contemplation’ was the answer.  At the creator’s request, all the diverse energies contributed a part of their energy to the dream. The creator harmonized all of these energies within itself. The creator was filled with powerful energy and the desire to manifest. With a harmonized balance of all these energies, inspired by love, the creator made the physical world. </em></p>
<p><em> </em></p>
<p><em>When love inspires two people to create a family together, a similar co-creation takes place. The diverse energies of the couple are unified with a desire to create a life long bond and the dream is manifested. </em></p>
<p>We have a dream to create something inspiring and joyful. We dream of co-creating a settlement balancing and harmonizing the diverse energies of the members of the settlement into a grand and beautifully loving physical reality. We envision supporting one another’s dream to co-create a <em>space of love</em> with our own love and labor.</p>
<p>The vision that follows is a co-creation of the members currently involved in Vedrica. As other members are inspired to co-create with us, their input and energy will add to and modify our vision to include their unique input. As a result, our vision is living and evolving according to the energies that are present in the group and on the land.</p>
<p>We intend to create our settlement following Anastasia’s dream of living in harmony with nature. Living this way we awaken our Human abilities to Create, and live the divine purpose.</p>
<p>We envision a settlement nurtured and stewarded with love. There are spaces of love with trees, ponds, flowers, fruits and cozy shelters. Each of us is competent and self-sufficient in our ability to create. We are an integral part of creating our own shelters. We help each other when requested and are able.</p>
<p>We see our group creating this settlement in or near mountains. There are grassy meadows, diverse tree species, and a creek running through the land year round. At night we see only the lights of the cosmos, we hear only joyful sounds of nature and kin.</p>
<p>There is a drivable road to the entrance of the property with a covered parking area. We have an office for communications and other communal facilities. The energy is generated locally and as sustainably as possible.</p>
<p>Some domains are near the entrance of the property where there are drivable roads and support the choice of amenities in the dwellings. Other have a walking path to get to their domain. We aspire to be in conscious awareness of What we are carrying in our life. We take full responsibility for what we bring to our settlement. It is our intent that everything we bring and do nourishes ourselves and the land.</p>
<p>We see nature as the primary teacher for us and our children. Children are precious and valued and are the inspiration for the living art we create with our spaces of love.</p>
<p>We have a school in which we guide people to increase their connection and relationship with nature. We share, teach and guide by being a living example of evolving our relationship with nature from survival to joy to divine.</p>

<description><![CDATA[  Hii, So this is going to be my big post about 2009, I don&#8217;t know how long I&#8217;ll ramble ]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Hii,</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">So this is going to be my big post about 2009, I don&#8217;t know how long I&#8217;ll ramble on for but I hope you can read the most of it. I&#8217;ll add tons of pictures and some of my graphics that suit the topic and hopefully it will keep you reading.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">So 2009 hasn&#8217;t been really the best year of Stardoll,the dress-up dolls are still crappy, hardly anything new has happened or added to the website, more members (if that helps us in any way), more &#8220;gossip&#8221; blogs around wordpress and blogspot (all filled with silly wannabes), more hackers and spammers on the loose, loads of more make-up tutorials on youtube ( I wonder why . . .?) and more exspensive $200 dresses added to starplaza. Sounds pretty normal to me!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">So at the start of 2009- Don&#8217;t have a calender in your head? January</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Nothing really new happened during the month of January, that&#8217;s why i posted a few rants and my amateur graphics (that&#8217;s not changed much . .). Except at the end of the month stardoll added a new feature called <strong>Styling Studio</strong>. I&#8217;ve only made one ever and that was only when it first came out and I thought it was amazing! Sadly now I think it is a waste of my $8. I could buy half of a non-superstar outfit or a nice Bisou dress, but rather than making fun, new, exciting Styling Studios, instead we&#8217;ve now got <strong>&#8220;MY LE, HOTBUYS, DKNY &#38; RARES&#8221;</strong> . What a great way to encourage us kid&#8217;s into envying and making us buy more <strong>hotbuys/le</strong> so we could show it all off in our Styling Studios. It&#8217;s like everyone tyring to scream &#8220;Ohhh look how rich I am with my whole collection of first season LE!! and <strong>hotbuys</strong> from 2007!!! I paid $2000 for all these clothes! Envy me!!&#8221;. So everytime I see one of these I laugh at the poor girls, being obsessed with the virtual clothes. At the start of 2007 I was totally obsessed with getting <strong>rares/hotbuys/DKNY</strong> and look how that turned out? Scammed out of 6 codes and got hacked and I lost everything. Oh and what&#8217;s really funny about the <strong>Styling Studios</strong> is when people comment &#8220;Omg I totally want your wardrobe&#8221; over and over again.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">February</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">So at the start of the month stardoll decided to change the SMS code system. From $67 stardollars and 1 month superstar to $50 stardollars and 1 month of superstar. $17 stardollars might not sound a lot to you, but it could of saved us ton&#8217;s of mobile phone credit!! And so stardoll mailed all of us UK users with this:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="stardoll" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/02/stardoll.jpg?w=460&#038;h=241#38;h=241" alt="stardoll" width="460" height="241" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">and my little crack down of it:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>“Hello stardoll user,</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>Stardoll has decided we are being hogs and that we’re not getting enough money and that we have lowered the price we usually give you so we can make more money and take your dosh! The phone-line company’s keep most of the money so we’ve decided we want more of it so we’re lowering the amount of stardollars we’re giving you</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>Stardoll Customer Service</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>If you have any comment please post below, may we mention all will be ignored, Thank you”</em></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;">on the 14th of February, stardoll released a little freebie for us to celebrate Valentines Day. With a Red Lipstick, don&#8217;t know what I&#8217;m talking about? It looked something a little bit like this:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://lel1996stardollblog.wordpress.com/files/2009/12/untitled1.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1688" title="Untitled" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.wordpress.com/files/2009/12/untitled1.jpg" alt="" width="355" height="434" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">And on the lipstick cover it says &#8220;I (heart) you&#8221;, very cute. But sadly I never wear red lipstick on my medoll so it&#8217;s just been added to my &#8220;no use lipstick&#8221; pile! But it was great for stardoll to add that freebie for Non superstars and Superstars and people who couldn&#8217;t buy lipstick&#8217;s from Sephora at the time, finally could have a small thing to add to their medoll creator.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">March</span></strong></p>
<p><a href="http://lel1996stardollblog.wordpress.com/files/2009/12/untitled.jpg"></a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> At the start of March, new <strong>DKNY </strong>and<strong> ELLE</strong> collections were added and also some cheap clothing to celebrate <strong>Woman&#8217;s Day . </strong>At the time, I had no idea why they did this? I really wouldn&#8217;t want to wear a dress that had &#8220;<strong>Woman&#8217;s Day</strong>&#8221; plastered across the dress, but I suppose it is for a good cause so I think I bought a few things. Also in the month of March, stardoll people were going into panic as they thought there was an &#8220;<strong>Italian Mafia</strong>&#8221; going round stardoll hacking into their accounts through friend requests. And i was like WTF?? I remember the day when I went to the <strong>OrginalClub</strong> and there was a big topic called something like &#8220;Hacking! <strong>Italian Mafia</strong>!!&#8221; and so I went to check on it and there was a big discussion about how some &#8220;elite&#8217;s&#8221; accounts were hacked and all their <strong>hotbuys/LE/DKNY/Lottery Dresses/Rares </strong>were gone. So to find out more I went on some of the gossip blogs and funnily enough they were all talking about it! Such a shame some people lost their accounts and all their stardollars but calling it the <strong>Italian Mafia</strong> is just childish. There is such a word as <em>Hackers! </em>Also, when you tried to contact Stardoll it would be ordered into sections, just like it is today. This means that stardoll could find the right automated message for you. This is one of the reasons I really dislike stardoll staff is that they can&#8217;t find enough of their time or staff to actually give us an actual response on what we asked them, I can&#8217;t count on how many times where I&#8217;ve gotten a reply from stardoll that was completely out of my question! <strong>Club Penguin</strong>, has wayy more members but both are about on the same ranks, yet <strong>Club penguin</strong> actually reply to you with people (their staff) replying to you!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Along with that stupid update, stardoll added 2 new hairstyles:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="neew" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/neew.jpg?w=215&#038;h=417#38;h=417" alt="neew" width="215" height="417" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="newhair1" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/newhair1.jpg?w=229&#038;h=414#38;h=414" alt="newhair1" width="229" height="414" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;">One of them was from the <strong>Rihanna</strong> doll, and when it was first released I totally loved it! But now I prefer my 2000 starpoints hair. And the other hairstyle, I would only wear if my outfit was <strong>Decades</strong> Inspired.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">the new cheaper <strong>LE</strong> was released in late March:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="antidote" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/antidote.jpg?w=460&#038;h=345#38;h=345" alt="antidote" width="460" height="345" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">I totally loved this range of clothing but sadly I got there too late and only bought 1 thing, as everything that was left was either for men, or I just didn&#8217;t like it. Just the same as <strong>LE</strong> as it was sort of &#8220;limited&#8221; but it was a little bit cheaper than <strong>LE </strong>and more edgy designs. Sadly the next collection of <strong>Antidote</strong> wasn&#8217;t the best   . . but that will come much more later!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">On march 28th our only make-up store <strong>Sephora</strong> was on sale and was closing down. I really regret not buying more make-up, as let&#8217;s just say Dot doesn&#8217;t really match up.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="beauty1" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/03/beauty1.jpg?w=460&#038;h=263#38;h=263" alt="beauty1" width="460" height="263" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">It was my favourite store out of the whole of Starplaza! And it&#8217;s really hard to use <strong>Dot</strong> in my medoll tutorials as I think <strong>Sephora</strong> does a better job and some new players don&#8217;t have any <strong>Sephora</strong> in their Medoll Creator. I think stardoll could of added another better make-up brand instead of <strong>Dot</strong>, everyone was hoping for <strong>Mac</strong> and that would be amazing to have!<em> </em>I use <strong>Estee Lauder</strong> in real life (as my mom uses it), and that would be incredible to have in starplaza! Also <strong>Dior </strong>have an amazing set of eyeshadow pallets, which I have 2, so that would also be cool to have in starplaza also.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">April</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">At the start of April Stardoll decided to change our Medoll Creator to as we know it today:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://lel1996stardollblog.wordpress.com/files/2009/12/medoll.jpg"><img class="alignnone size-full wp-image-1690" title="medoll" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.wordpress.com/files/2009/12/medoll.jpg" alt="" width="460" height="320" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">A lot different from what it used to be, but it&#8217;s a lot better. The only downside from this medoll creator is that you couldn&#8217;t zoom in your medoll, which you used to be able to do and so it is sometimes hard to do detailed make-up looks. Also a new collection of <strong>LE</strong> was added and I only bought 2 things but it cost me all of my stardollar savings!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="le1" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/le1.jpg?w=300&#038;h=187#38;h=187" alt="le1" width="300" height="187" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="le2" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/le2.jpg?w=300&#038;h=187#38;h=187" alt="le2" width="300" height="187" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> And more on starplaza news in march, <strong>Philosophy</strong> was on sale- the first collection. And then we were waiting for the new <strong>Philosophy</strong> collection to be released. i actually really liked <strong>Philosophy</strong>, except it was quite on the exspensive side, but it was great on sale!! So I bought all that I could or all that I liked.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="sale1" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/sale1.jpg?w=460&#038;h=339#38;h=339" alt="sale1" width="460" height="339" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">And at the end of the month <strong>Play &#38; Earn</strong> was introduced! I didn&#8217;t have a clue what it was or what to do until I read all the instructions, which I hardly ever do. And I never really got it so I only got like $2 stardollars ever day excluding my $1 a day, which was still there at the time. It was only till much more later I got the hang of it, and when it was first released there was only 2 games which was the dress-up remember game and the Paparazzi.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="earny1" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/04/earny1.jpg?w=460&#038;h=261#38;h=261" alt="earny1" width="460" height="261" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">May</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">The first day of May, stardoll reached 30 million members as to celebrate they gave us these:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="20million" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/20million.jpg?w=388&#038;h=482#38;h=482" alt="20million" width="388" height="482" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">which some of it we had to pay for! Now it&#8217;s because of us stardoll reached 30 million members as we joined up so to make us pay for a small little bag and a big sign for $40 altogether is pure cheek! fair enough the T-shirt and the tank top was free but to do that? Also stardoll celebrated their 3rd Birthday and had a competition everyday through sceneries and also a small little B-day cake which we could &#8220;dress-up&#8221;</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="b-day-cake" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/b-day-cake.jpg?w=419&#038;h=432#38;h=432" alt="b-day-cake" width="419" height="432" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Also in the month of May our dear<strong> Animal-Lovers</strong> club was deleted. i really loved going into that club and talking to everyone on the topic and to see it gone, made me never to go into clubs again. I&#8217;ve talked to the owner of Animal-Lovers before it was shut down for like 1 minute and she seemed nice. But now Fashion Club hardly have anything interesting to talk about in the Topics either do Orginal Club so whats the point anymore?</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="al" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/al.jpg?w=237&#038;h=386#38;h=386" alt="al" width="237" height="386" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Also on Play &#38; Earn it seemed that Lithuanian folk seemed really good at these games, with 6 of them in a row in the high-scores list. And so I wondered if it was a cheat or if it was a bunch of friends going round to each others houses in Lithuania. And weeks later we found out the cheat to get on the high scores</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="lithuina" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/05/lithuina.jpg?w=221&#038;h=357#38;h=357" alt="lithuina" width="221" height="357" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">June</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">In the month of June, hardly anything happened at all!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Stardoll decided to give us a &#8220;gift&#8221; for buying their LE . .</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="LE" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/le.jpg?w=300&#038;h=298#38;h=298" alt="LE" width="300" height="298" /></p>
<p>I knew as soon as i pressed Buy it would be out of stock! What stupid idea by stardoll! And of course we can&#8217;t sell our LE except the silly chains. Why is stardoll being like this? Here is an extract from the letter:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><em>You are among the select few to receive this limited offer – it’s our personal ‘thank you’ for shopping at the LE store.</em> offers — and this will be the ONLY way to obtain these one-time LE offerings.dollmailWe have crafted some of our most beautifully rendered and detail-rich garments. They will only be sold in this series of</p>
<p> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong>Here is my Breakdown of it</strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Selected few? More like the 1 million people who bought the last LE collection. More like our “personal” way of getting your StarDollars’s</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">You&#8217;re a Virtual site!!! how can u have garments that are real? Your being so stupid!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;">The stardoll went overboard with their new theme, called something like Sailing or Water? With Scenries/design competitions/haiku/dress-up dolls/ freebies</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="stardollwater" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/stardollwater.jpg?w=300&#038;h=203#38;h=203" alt="stardollwater" width="300" height="203" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="1" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/12.jpg?w=300&#038;h=164#38;h=164" alt="1" width="300" height="164" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="2" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/21.jpg?w=300&#038;h=191#38;h=191" alt="2" width="300" height="191" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="111" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/111.jpg?w=231&#038;h=300#38;h=300" alt="111" width="231" height="300" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="gdydg" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/gdydg.jpg?w=414&#038;h=536#38;h=536" alt="gdydg" width="414" height="536" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Also stardoll added new updates to our hairstyles:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="hairstyles" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/hairstyles.jpg?w=400&#038;h=339#38;h=339" alt="hairstyles" width="400" height="339" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">and I only really liked 3 out of them all! But it was nice to add a few more hairstyles as they were getting boring . .</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">For quite a short time Vivienne Tam&#8217;s starplaza store was empty and her new collection came out:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="v" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/v.jpg?w=300&#038;h=226#38;h=226" alt="v" width="300" height="226" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">I&#8217;ve only bought 2 things from the store, I&#8217;m just waiting for it all to go into sale as I usually do! It&#8217;s the best way to save my pennies. Also to make the non-superstars happy they added the new Basics store, with things from $1 and $2</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="basics" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/basics.jpg?w=300&#038;h=210#38;h=210" alt="basics" width="300" height="210" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">and for Play &#38; Earn, a new game was added for us kid&#8217;s to know our Earth</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="map" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/06/map1.jpg?w=295&#038;h=300#38;h=300" alt="map" width="295" height="300" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">and it&#8217;s so easy, i know the whole Europe now and it&#8217;s the only Play &#38; Earn game I play to get stardollars as it&#8217;s easier than the rest.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">July</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Nothing hardly happened in July either. More crappy dress-up dolls and a few sales and added collections and spoilers.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Mary-Kate and Ashley&#8217;s clothing went on sale and I bought a few things</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="mmm" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/mmm.jpg?w=300&#038;h=221#38;h=221" alt="mmm" width="300" height="221" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">The Elle collection that is in starplaza now, Spoilers were released:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="elle" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/elle1.jpg?w=460&#038;h=166#38;h=166" alt="elle" width="460" height="166" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">and everyone went crazy over them, even me . .</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">and I couldn&#8217;t wait till  the first collection of Miss Sixty was released after these spoilers:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="misssixty" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/misssixty.jpg?w=429&#038;h=401#38;h=401" alt="misssixty" width="429" height="401" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">What&#8217;s really funny is, when it was released i never bought anything. And I bought only a few things in starbazar. But it was nice of Stardoll to add Miss Sixty into our starplaza because at that time I think we needed more designer stores as DKNY and ELLE were getting a bit boring.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">The Clubs outlook changed aswell for the better which was a great update:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="clubs" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/07/clubs.jpg?w=300&#038;h=292#38;h=292" alt="clubs" width="300" height="292" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Also again, new hairstyles were added and were inspired by celebs like Amy Winehouse, Christina Milian, Nicole Ritchie, Robert Pattinson, Agy Deyn and more celebs and they became really popular and still are today! I also had a small code competiton which was really fun to organize.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">August</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="bags" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/08/bags.jpg?w=443&#038;h=532#38;h=532" alt="bags" width="443" height="532" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">These handbags were added to starplaza and noticed the sign above, <em>for a limited time</em>. Yet people kept on saying they were limited Edition . . and I wouldn&#8217;t die for these handbags thank you very much . .</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">I&#8217;m sure a lot more happened during August but I don&#8217;t know for sure as I didn&#8217;t write much during my blog at that time so I don&#8217;t have anything to look back on and I don&#8217;t like going into other peoples blogs as I don&#8217;t know if their just full of lies.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">September</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Stardoll reached 40 Million Members and they decided to give us all this:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="hehe" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/hehe.jpg?w=451&#038;h=433#38;h=433" alt="hehe" width="451" height="433" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;">and the new LE was released and I only bought one thing:</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="lee" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/09/lee1.jpg?w=397&#038;h=481#38;h=481" alt="lee" width="397" height="481" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">I&#8217;m sorry if there is not much happening as I really didn&#8217;t blog at all during the summer months</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">October</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><img title="stardoll halloween" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/10/stardoll-halloween.jpg?w=460&#038;h=315#38;h=315" alt="stardoll halloween" width="460" height="315" /></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Stardoll, for Halloween (My b-day ^^) added a new store called Tingeling Halloween Couture. It was quite pricy but it looked quite amazing!</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Also stardoll stopped the one $1 a day as they thought Play &#38; Earn was giving us free stardollars, and I really want that $1 a day back as it totally helped me all the months that it was there, and it helped non-superstars find a way of makng money as if you play Play &#38; Earn you have to spend it in a day and you don&#8217;t get to keep it, so non-superstar wouldn&#8217;t be really happy with this</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><span style="text-decoration:underline;"><strong>November</strong></span></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">nothing . . .</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">and I&#8217;m not lying, even take a look at my archives . .</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://lel1996stardollblog.wordpress.com/2009/11/">http://lel1996stardollblog.wordpress.com/2009/11/</a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><strong><span style="text-decoration:underline;">December</span></strong></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/le.jpg"><img title="LE" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/le.jpg?w=460&#038;h=334#38;h=334" alt="" width="460" height="334" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">The new LE came out, and i can&#8217;t remember anymore what i bought. As usual I got there late and missed out on everything so i was left with all the crappy stuff <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_sad.gif' alt=':(' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;">New Dot make-up and DKNY collection came out which I was happy about as they both really needed new updates</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Stardoll added parties, which I get quite a lot of invites to. I&#8217;m really sorry folks but I don&#8217;t have the time to party with everyone.</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/decade.jpg"><img title="decade" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/decade.jpg?w=459&#038;h=369#38;h=369" alt="" width="459" height="369" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;">New decade of the teens was added, most designs by normal stardoll users</p>
<p style="text-align:center;">and stardoll started advertising on Youtube</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"><a href="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/capture.jpg"><img title="Capture" src="http://lel1996stardollblog.files.wordpress.com/2009/12/capture.jpg?w=460&#038;h=297#38;h=297" alt="" width="460" height="297" /></a></p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Sorry folks if I rushed everything at the end, finally noticed I spent 4 hours doing this, Totally tired and can&#8217;t be bothered anymore</p>
<p style="text-align:center;"> </p>
<p style="text-align:center;">Hope you enjoyed it and to be honest there was nothing really special about the year 2009 and I wonder what will happen in 2010</p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p>The majority of hypoglycemic suffers have diabetes. Due to being diabetic their body struggles to bring blood sugar levels back within a normal range should they start to fall. This can leave you feeling hungry, anxious, weak, light-headed or sleepy with excessive perspiration and dizziness. Usually the reaction is not serious and can be treated by eating or drinking sugar or carbohydrate rich products. However, it is important to note that potential symptoms should not be ignored as, left untreated, <b>&#60;a href=&#34;http://www.healthyliveworld.com/hypoglycemia-<a href="http://www.healthyliveworld.com/buy-diet-pill-online/" title="diet">diet</a>/&#8221; title=&#8221;hypoglycemia&#8221;&#62;hypoglycemia</a></b> can cause a person to lose consciousness.</p>

There are two types of <b>&#60;a href=&#34;http://www.healthyliveworld.com/hypoglycemia-<a href="http://www.healthyliveworld.com/buy-diet-pill-online/" title="diet">diet</a>/&#8221; title=&#8221;hypoglycemia&#8221;&#62;hypoglycemia</a></b> not related to diabetes &#8211; reactive and fasting <b>hypoglycemia</b>. Fasting <b>hypoglycemia</b> occurs when people go periods without <a href="http://www.healthyliveworld.com/printable-food-pyramid/" title="food">food</a> such as overnight or after exercise. This is not a common condition in people without diabetes and is usually associated with another illness or medication.  While, reactive <b>hypoglycemia</b> happens within about 4 hours of eating a meal.</p>
<p>Should you suffer from reactive <b>hypoglycemia</b> the following steps have been suggested by some health officials to counter the symptoms &#8211; eating little and often, exercising regularly, having a varied, high fiber <b>diet</b> and cutting out or reducing your intake of sugary <a href="http://www.healthyliveworld.com/printable-food-pyramid/" title="food">food</a>s.</p>
<p>If you do suffer from <b>hypoglycemia</b> there are also some precautions that you could think about taking. For example, wearing a bracelet with the condition on it in case of emergencies. Telling your friends and work colleagues what your particular symptoms are so they can watch out for you and remind you to eat when you appear to become irritable or fatigued. Keeping suitable snacks on hand and remembering to eat regularly to keep your blood sugar levels steady, limiting alcohol consumption and finally checking your glucose levels before using heavy machinery, driving or doing any strenuous exercise.</p>

<description><![CDATA[Another strong consumer spending gain. The Commerce Department announced consumer spending rose 0.5%]]></description>
<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><strong>Another strong consumer spending gain.</strong> The Commerce Department announced consumer spending rose 0.5% in November, following a 0.6% increase in October. Personal incomes rose in November by the most in six months.<sup>1</sup></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Hashing out the home sales data. </strong>New home sales fell 11.3% last month, undoubtedly affected by the perception that the first-time buyer credit would expire. Existing home sales soared by 7.4% as buyers scrambled to meet the possible deadline. The median price for an existing home was $172,600 last month compared to $217,400 for a new one – that certainly also helped residential resales.<sup>2,3</sup></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Health care reform clears Senate.</strong> On Christmas Eve, Senate Democrats got the 60 votes needed to pass that chamber’s version of a historic health care reform bill. The House and Senate will work to reconcile their respective bills next month.<sup>4</sup></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Mortgage rates edge above 5%.</strong> Freddie Mac has average rates on 30-year FRMs at 5.05% in its latest survey. Over the weekend, its deputy chief economist Amy Crews Cutts told the <em>Washington Post</em> that “anything we get at or below 5% is a gift at this point.” She thinks rates will hit 6% by the end of 2010.<sup>5</sup></p>
<p><sup> </sup></p>
<p><strong>Catching up with gold &#38; oil.</strong> Last Thursday, gold posted a gain of $10.80 to reach $1,104.80 per ounce. With the dollar strengthening, gold prices fell about $123 during December 3-24. Oil prices ended the week at $78.05, rising about 5% in 3.5 market days.<sup>6</sup></p>
<p><strong> </strong></p>
<p><strong>Lower volumes, higher stocks.</strong> Santa Claus dropped by Wall Street &#8211; the Dow ascended almost 2% to end a relatively quiet week at 10,520.10. The NASDAQ closed at 2,285.69 Thursday; the S&#38;P 500 closed at 1,126.48.<sup>7</sup></p>

<content:encoded><![CDATA[<div class='snap_preview'><p><a href="http://dorianhawkins.wordpress.com/files/2009/12/260388690_9f93b1710c.jpg"><img class="alignleft size-medium wp-image-213" title="260388690_9f93b1710c" src="http://dorianhawkins.wordpress.com/files/2009/12/260388690_9f93b1710c.jpg?w=300" alt="" width="300" height="199" /></a>So you may or may not have noticed that I am discussing the first movement AFTER the other two. Well the reason for this is rather simple: It&#8217;s hard. Hard to play, hard to write, hard to understand, hard. BUT! I definitely think it has turned out pretty well. <img src='http://s.wordpress.com/wp-includes/images/smilies/icon_smile.gif' alt=':)' class='wp-smiley' /> </p>
<p>It&#8217;s known as &#8220;Mvt I &#8211; The Trickster&#8221; and is more of a scherzo movement than anything else. The overall form can be classified as a &#8220;loose sonata-form&#8221; and it is a true adrenaline rush of a movement. It opens with a viola solo stating the melody of the piece. It is a very clear &#8220;HERE IT IS&#8221; gesture that I like and don&#8217;t feel to be &#8216;unimaginative&#8217; or anything like that simply because it&#8217;s such a strange melody. Personally, I see it as more of a motive or idea than a melody.</p>
<p>After the viola solo the piano comes in with a presentation of the harmonic gestures present throughout the piece with the strings giving accompanying chords. This suspenseful and more high-pitched intro then crescendos to nothing before the flute and cello take the listener off on the journey that is this movement. The biggest thing I wanted to experiment with in this movement was rhythm. One thing I admire most about the work of Sergei Prokofiev is his ability to make 3/4 or 4/4 or any time signature sound like MUCH MORE than just 3/4 or 4/4, etc. I think I did a pretty good job of not only working outside my usual realm of simple 4/4 half note rhythmic pulses, but of incorporating other time signatures in the middle of the simpler ones and of &#8220;blurring the bar lines&#8221; for multiple measures.</p>
<p>In what would be considered the development of this sonata form movement, I included an Irish-inspired violin solo. It takes the basic notes of the Irish reel <em>The Pacific Slope </em>and juxtaposes it against the primary melody of the movement (which isn&#8217;t the main melody of the PIECE btw). I have a certain love for Irish fiddling and wanted for the longest time to write something that incorporates it, and this movement just turned out to be my opportunity! It&#8217;s relevance to this movement is drawn from the idea that the violin is an instrument of tricksters like the devil (as suggested in <em>The Devil and Daniel Webster</em>). I basically took that concept and ran with it.</p>
<p>I consider this movement as a whole to be a <strong>major</strong> success. Originally it was my favorite, and then after having to make so many changes to please my professor without betraying myself, I started to like it less and less. However, after a few changes and taking a complete break from it to work on the other movements and give my brain time to formulate some new ideas, I fell in love with it all over again. If I can find some performers to tackle the incredibly challenging parts, I would absolutely love to have this movement performed in next semester&#8217;s SCI concert. Otherwise, it&#8217;ll have to wait until my senior recital. :\</p>
