Delighted Momma Musée Ghibli, un voyage chez Totoro Le studio Ghibli est un mythe pour certains, totalement inconnu pour d'autres. Pour faire simple, son créateur emblématique, Hayao Miyazaki est considéré comme le Walt Disney japonais et est régulièrement cité comme source d'inspiration par les producteurs de Pixar, qui admirent tout autant sa réussite que sa créativité. Fondé en 1985, le studio a réalisé dix-neuf long métrages dont certains sont encore totalement inédits en France. La France qui a d'ailleurs, comme le reste du monde occidental, mis un certain temps avant de donner sa chance aux films Ghibli. "Kiki la petite sorcière" nous est même arrivée avec encore plus de retard, quinze ans ! Depuis quelques années cependant, et avec le succès grandissant, les productions Ghibli ont considérablement réduit l'écart entre leur sortiedans leur pays d'origine et la France notamment. Les plus grands succès en métropole sont à mettre au profit de "Ponyo sur la falaise" (2009) et surtout "Le voyage de Chihiro" (2002). Le restaurant du musée

Natural ant killer - Guide to the most efficient natural ant killer The Soong sisters: Women of influence in 20th Century China 11 October 2012 Last updated at 23:57 GMT By Carrie Gracie BBC News, Beijing There will be no women at the helm of China's Communist Party when the leadership is reshuffled next month, but there are many more opportunities for women in today's China than there were 100 years ago. Then the only way to achieve influence was to marry it - and three sisters from one family showed how. On one bank of the Huangpu river in Shanghai stands a forest of steel and glass skyscrapers, but on the other - colonial splendour. A century ago, foreigners unpacked a whole new fascinating way of life on the docks here. From Western ships came bicycles, engine parts and young Chinese with a vision of modernity - adventurers like Charlie Soong who had been out to see the world and had come back with ideas about revolution and the role of women. A Bible publisher and pillar of Shanghai society, Charlie had sons, and in any earlier generation he'd have ignored his daughters. Money was no object. “ Start Quote

Amazingly Effective, Nontoxic Fly Repellant Flies seem to be everywhere this time of year. I was out at a local farm just yesterday and the flies were very noticeable and quite annoying as I went about my work. Seeing all those flies reminded me of a simple, nontoxic and very effective fly repellant that I observed in action at one of my children’s field trips a couple of months ago. The class was visiting a petting farm with a large open barn where donkeys, horses, goats and other livestock were available for the children to observe and interact with. Despite so many animals in a small semi-enclosed area, there were no flies buzzing around! He explained that a clear bag of water with a penny at the bottom would repel the flies very effectively. “Why the penny at the bottom of the bag?” Grandpa the farmer answered that he wasn’t exactly sure but the penny did seem to increase the effectiveness of the hanging bag of water alone. Try this fly repellant method for yourself! More Information Nontoxic Pest Control Ideas that Work

How to Escape from Zip Ties In our How To Escape and Evade in an Urban Environment article, we briefly discussed escaping from zip ties. There are quite a few hasty methods of illegal restraint, and zip ties are a method that’s available to any would-be kidnapper. A few of the other methods seen are duct tape, rope and phone cord, but with a little education you’ll see that all of these methods can easily be defeated. There are two things you’ll need in any escape situation, and without these two things, nothing we’ll show you will work. Those two things are time and opportunity. Your captors are most likely not going to have the resources or the patience to keep eyes on you constantly, and when they don’t, it’s time to make your move.

INFO:-) A Cozy Winter Engagement Shoot I am cuddled up working from home this afternoon, spending some quiet time with my pups. (My favorite thing to do after a business trip.) It’s sunny now, but Syracuse has been hit hard with lots of snow (again) the last few days so the snow is everywhere and there is no shortage of cold, making me kind of love this cozy winter engagement shoot shared by the lovely Emily and Bethany. All of the rustic, Nordic inspired details feel just right for romantic and snowy engagement photos, and I love how sweet Ingrid and Colby look together. Big cozy blankets, mugs of hot cocoa, camp lanterns and pine cones are the perfect little details for a winter celebration.

20 online dating cliches - and what they really mean 6 January 2014Last updated at 19:31 ET By Clare Spencer BBC News Magazine January is a boom month for the online dating industry as millions turn to the internet to find love. But composing a profile that makes you sound fascinating and unique is harder than it sounds. Post-Christmas to the Wednesday after Valentine's Day is the peak season for dating websites, according to Plenty of Fish's Sarah Gooding. In the process, millions of people will try to summarise their characters in just a few paragraphs. I'm new to this, so here goes... This betrays its author's discomfort about using an internet dating site, says William Doherty, professor of family social science at the University of Minnesota. For him, it shows that there is still a stigma to online dating. "When people are in a setting where they feel there's some stigma, they like to talk as if they are unfamiliar with it," he says. I love laughing Dating coach Laurie Davis loves laughing at this generic assertion. My life is fab.
