New Neighbors
Since John built the fantastic birdhouse, I was puttering around in the yard last week and thought I would just hang it outside. I grabbed a hanger and pole stand, and just stuck it out on the patio. This was just going to be a temporary arrangement. Then, for Mother's day Brendan got me a really nice suet feeder and lots of suet blocks. So, just to get it out where the birds could enjoy it, I hung the feeder next to the new birdhouse.
Well, apparently the attraction of a new condo next door to a five star restaurant was just too good to be true, and within a day we had several potential new tenants. The Sparrows decided that the hole was just a bit to small.
This House Wren, though, thought it was just the thing...
So, much coming and going and nest building has been taking place right over the patio.
Little thing doesn't care about kids or dogs, just getting the place furnished for the family!

So one of my wonderful customers and I got together last Thursday for some stamping and technique sharing. We both were interested in trying the Watercolor Rose technique. I got out my reinkers, spray bottle of water and some plastic lids and before you know it we had each painted one rose image. We had so much fun trying out this technique that we couldn't stop at just the roses. We had to include the lilies and other flower image in the Fifth Avenue Floral stamp set shown on page 98 of the SU Idea Book and Catalogue. What do you think? Aren't they gorgeous. I used Crushed Curry, Pirouette Pink, and Red Riding Hood reinkers for the roses and lillies and Brocade Blue and Red Riding Hood for the blue flowers.
Welcome to My Blog Penny Tokens Stampin Spot
This is my little creative get away spot in a very hectic world. I love to stamp, meet other stampers and share my inspirations. So come and, sit for a while, explore my site and leave a comment when you can.

Water Colour Roses
Here's a sneak peek at some future cards I'll be making using the water colour roses technique made so popular this summer by Patti Bennett's Watercolor Roses - Technique and Video Tutorial. If you haven't seen her video I would strongly suggest you go to her blog and check it out. I can't thank Patti enough for the wonderful video and her excellent instructions.

Snowlady Welcomes Winter
Here is her prediction:
1. The first snow has already been here. (Duh.)
2. The second snow will be here before January 1st. (Double duh.)
Ah, how wonderful to have her in the company of the winter warriors. We love her sheepish grin and enjoy all of the yarns that she tells. With her beady eyes and her button front, she's one of those Midwesterners who stays north in cold weather and keeps the faith during the long, bright winter to come.
As Woolly Snowlady says to all she meets, "Only 22 more days until winter!"

Two Handsome Guys
Max and Will posed for my camera while they were looking through the Robert Sabuda pop-up book about dinosours that Max got for his birthday. Max has on his new hand knit hat that I made for him. I used Jared Flood's pattern, Turn A Square hat, that is a free download on Ravelry.com to knit the hat for Max.
Robert Sabuda's pop-up books are a form of artwork that is outstanding. Each page has a large central popup (you can see one in front of Max in the photo) and then there are side pocket/pages with more pop ups. Mr. Sabuda and his collaborator, Matthew Reinhart, have created children's books that delight and entertain adults as well as children. HERE is a link to Robert Sabuda's website where you can see more of his work.

Max's Karate Birthday
|Karate birthday at Ohana Karate near Howell, Michigan
Max enjoyed a karate birthday party with lots of his friends this weekend. Max and Finn both take karate classes at Ohana Karate. When Karate Sam told Liesl, their mom, that he was offering karate birthday parties, Liesl jumped at the chance.
The children learned to stay on their spot (notice the white dots on the floor), to sit with crossed legs and straight backs, and some of the basic kicking motions. Mr. Sam gave a lesson about bullying for both the parents and the children. There was lots of movement mixed in with the discipline of sitting and listening carefully.
The ice cream birthday cake was yummy and some very tired children headed home after a great karate themed birthday party.

Advent One
Light the Advent Candle One,
Now the waiting has begun.
We have started on our way,
Time to think of Christmas Day.
Candle, candle, burning bright,
Shining in the cold winter night.
Candle, candle, burning bright,
Fill our hearts with Christmas light.
The simple, yet sage, words of the children's Advent song ring in my head today. It's the first of four Sundays that come before Christmas, so in Christian liturgical tradition, it is Advent One.
Today I think of my Dad who is counting the days until his 91st Christmas in Wisconsin. His memories of Decembers past and the Christmases within all of those Decembers must be a wonderful gift for him this year.
I'm also thinking of my Houston friends, the Winter family, as they count the days toward Hanukkah. Two traditions, linked by the light of truth.
Life is good.

Max -- Beaming Brightly
Born on Thanksgiving Day, Max beams brightly across his birthday cake. The look on his happy face could light a thousand candles, but we settled for seven last night, since Max turns seven today.
We celebrated a day early by singing "Happy Birthday," sharing a cake and opening presents. Now, what you can't see in this photo is that the candle were the kind that re-ignite, so the blowing out lasted several minutes.
Max's mother made a red velvet cake with Cool Whip topping for frosting and filling. It was very yummy. Peter, Ed and I finished the birthday cake late last night after the boys were in bed. This morning Max said, "Grandma, somebody ate the rest of my cake last night!" "Yes, Max, we did," was the honest (and confessional) reply.
Notice the Christmas cactus in the lower right corner. We counted 62 buds on it one day this week. None of the blossoms are open yet, but we know it will be a spectactular sight soon.

Recipe For Kitchen Fun
|Wanda Jean (grandmother) and Griffin Henry (grandson)
on the Wednesday before Thanksgiving, 2011
Take one buttermilk roll recipe from old cookbook. (Margin notes say this recipe was used for Thanksgiving 1983.)
Add one small grandson.
Find a plastic knife and a step stool.
Enforce hand washing rules.
Punch dough. Knead dough. Pat dough. Roll out dough. Cut dough. Shape rolls. Bake rolls. Test rolls (the baker must be the tester!) Eat rolls. (Well, some of them. The rest should be frozen for Thanksgiving Day dinner.)

New Glasses
It's probably been three years since I've had a pair of new glasses. This time I went whole hog and had three pairs made up for me -- sunglasses, regular lenses and computer glasses. The computer glasses (shown above) are designed for closeup work that is slightly more distant than one would use for reading. And, yes, I know that I chose frames that are kind of nerdy. Such is life.
I'm finding them very comfortable for working on my laptop, for knitting, and for doing artwork. Rhonda Buehler at Scheurer Family Vision Center (her spouse is the optomistrist, by the way) recommended this third pair. She says she puts hers on for doing paperwork at the start of the day and finds that by the end of the day, she's still wearing them.
I did start using the new glasses just two days before my cellphone died. So, over one weekend I was getting used to new glasses and a new phone. Talk about retraining your brain, your eyes, and your fingers at the same time!

Thanksgiving Collage 2011, Inspired by Starbucks Coffee
Some things simply make it autumn.
Like a crisp chill in the air.
Vibrant leaves blanketing front lawns.
And friends and family gathering on Thanksgiving Day.
Enjoy this coffee with the things that make fall the season to love the most.
I liked this sentiment from a package of Starbucks Thanksgiving blend coffee so much that I made a collage for Thanksgiving. I cut the words out of the package and collected various pieces of artwork that reminded me of Thanksgiving and good food. All of these elements (a scrapbooking term) add up to the ephemera (a museum term) that you see here in this photo -- leaves, acorns, a seal from a wine bottle, a face to represent family and friends, spoon and fork for good food, and, of course, a Starbucks logo from the package.
I painted the background with golden tones, glued everything in place and framed it. The little collage will be a reminder of this Thanksgiving.

Finn at Adams Field
Finny enjoys the big old nut tree that's next to Adams Field at MSU before the football game on Saturday. Just about every little kid who comes to watch the Spartan Marching Band before the game climbs on the low lying limbs of this welcoming tree.
Scores of huge trees, many over 100 years old, dot the north side of the campus near the Union. Like unspoken treasure, their branches rise in testament to the enduring goodness of nature and the enjoyment of small boys swinging on their limbs.

Drill and Clean
The distant figure in the center pane is my youngest child, Peter Eichler, co-director of the Color Guard, and a graduate of Michigan State and Laker High School. This photo was taken while Peter's dad and I waited outside the practice hall and chatted with jazz music students who were waiting for their turn at using the practice facility.

The Board Is Spread
Thanksgiving is come. The board is spread.
Thanks be to God who gives us bread.
Praise God for bread.
Since Ed and I will be hosting Thanksgiving at Cedar Bluff this year, I dug out this photo of what the table looked like two years ago when we last hosted the big meal. When I look at this photo, my mind starts singing the old camp table grace song which starts out with "morning is come, the board is spread."
About this time, a week ahead, I could get pretty frazzled over the details of any special meal, let alone Thanksgiving. Are the groceries bought? Who is doing the turkey? How many places to set? When should the appetizers be set out? Which tablecloth?
Surely details deserve attention. Good food does come from good planning. But Thanksgiving is more than place settings and platters.
Thanksgiving is about gathering. It's a time of collecting the best and the worst of the year, and still being thankful for life's blessings. In a setting of family and friends, the turkey can be dry, the potatoes less than fluffy and the pies can disappear too soon. What will matter is that we will be together, the board will be spread, and we will give thanks. Again.

Football Buddies
|Dave and Jill Harmon, Wanda and Ed Eichler
Dave and Jill Harmon were our football buddies for the Minnesota vs. Michigan State game on Saturday, November 5. Here we are, before the game, on Adams Field where the Spartan Marching Band forms before the game.
Ed and I had sideline passes for this game so Dave and Jill held down the fort in our section for the first half. I joined them for the second half while Ed stayed on the sidelines. It was a good game. Dave and I did lots of yelling during the third down conversions. Jill is a little (maybe) quieter but we all can really get into the game.
We don't tailgate before the game, but when the Harmons come with us we can count on a good Mexican meal at La Senorita after the game. John and Liesl and Max and Finn joined us along with Pete. We rehashed the game and the little boys got to play a mini field goal game (think paper footballs finger snapped through white pipe goalposts) that the wait staff sets up in a corner of the dining room.
One more home game this Saturday! Go State! Beat Indiana!

Foothill Haze
A morning haze lies across the foothills of the Santa Catalina Mountains near Tucson this past Monday. Just one day earlier, record rainfall covered the area. By Monday morning, a layer of velvet haze hung over the valley and ringed the purple mountains east of Tucson.
The rain cleared the air and brought blue skies with high clouds. This photo was taken on my morning walk along Dove Mountain Road.

Happy Birthday To Will
On the day of this photo, Ed and I met Will and Wendy and Hannah in Port Huron for Father's Day brunch at the Thomas Edison Inn along the St. Clair River. The photo was taken at a nearby playground where we enjoyed watching Hannah on the swings after brunch.
Will was born on a snowy Thursday in Bad Axe. We brought him home to our first house in Pigeon on West Pigeon Road. Ed was working as a lineman for Pigeon Telephone Company at the time and was often assigned to work in Twining across Saginaw Bay. My mother-in-law Pauline was a big help to me in those first mothering days. She answered lots of questions and guided our little family with great elan. Will was her second grandchild (Jason Richard being the first) and second grandson, with many more to come.
Happy Birthday, William Edwin!

Cloud Collision
Clouds collided with the Catalina Mountains on the northeast side of Tucson during this weekend's rainstorms. This peak appears to be the source of steam or smoke. The Catalinas rise as high as Mt. Lemmon at over 9000 feet and are a prominent feature in the Tucson landscape.

Autumn Salad with Red Grapes, Celery and Almonds
|Autumn Salad with Red Grapes, Celery and Almonds
Luscious red grapes and crunchy green celery are featured in a chopped salad that is an eye catching side dish. Serve this salad with home made vegetable soup and whole wheat toast for a hearty autumn supper. A chopped salad is easy to eat. Whether you are making meals for kids or grownups, consider the ease of using a spoon or salad fork for consuming this salad. Gee, even a spork would work!
Autumn Salad
Prepare salad ingredients:
- 2 cups romaine with spines, cut into 1 inch pieces
- 1 cup red grapes, halved and seeded (if necessary)
- 1 stalk celery, chopped into 1/2 to 1 inch pieces
- 1/2 cup almonds, sliced
- 1/4 cup hard Romano cheese, shredded
- OPTIONAL 3 slices bacon, cooked and crumbled
Serves 4-6 as a side salad.
|The chopped ingredients for Autumn Salad
Mustard Vinaigrette Dressing
Whisk together:
- 2 tablespoons brown sugar
- 1/4 cup rice vinegar
- 2 tablespoons stone ground mustard
- 1 teaspoon Mrs. Dash seasoning
- several grinds of black pepper
Refrigerate dressing if not using immediately. Set dressing out of refrigerator and bring to room temperature before using. Extend this dressing, if needed, by whisking in 2 or 3 tablespoons of room temperature water.
More about this recipe
We've enjoyed red grapes for almost two months now. This salad combines the sweetness of the grapes with the crunch of the celery and romaine. Almonds bring snap to the salad. And the bacon, well, we can always add bacon to our salads, but omitting it makes this a vegetarian side. Use rice vinegar for a lighter flavor in the dressing. Another vinegar that would be good is Heinz Tarragon vinegar. The Heinz vinegar is harder to find at grocery stores. It is in a bottle that is the same shape as their wine vinegar bottle.
Make this into a main meal salad by tearing the romaine instead of chopping it. Divide the torn leaves from a head of romaine onto four plates. Toss the grapes and celery with the dressing. Spoon the dressed grape/celery mixture in the center of each plate. Sprinkle with Romano and almonds and, optionally, bacon.

Ball Meets Cactus
No, those white globes in this cactus are not eggs. They are golf balls that are firmly embedded into the saguaro cactus. These cactuses have a pithy inner structure that holds on to the balls.
Ball meets cactus. Cactus keeps ball.

Antenna Farm
There's a cluster of five high antennas on the west side of Tucson that is visible from many parts of the valley and mountains that surround the city. Here you can see the red lights at the base and at the top of each antenna. Since these lights flash intermittently, a photo like this is difficult to take.
I purchased a Sony Cybershot compact digital camera almost a year ago and am still learning about the settings. In order to get this photo with all five red lights I used the hand-held twilight setting that takes six images (very fast) and combines them into one. Designed for low light, non-tripod use, the twilight setting records stars and sunset glow and even the red lights from the antenna farm that can be seen in this photo.

Shawn's Quilt
The old proverb, "Many hands make light work," applies to this quilt project. Great Grandma Pauline, Great Aunt Wanda, and Grandmother Beth all have had a hand in cutting fabrics, sewing Thangles, and piecing blocks. Beth finished the top and sent it to me last week.
I'm heading for my quilting studio in Pigeon with its long arm Gammill quilting machine right after Thanksgiving. This quilt top, made for Shawn Michael Pelton, is scheduled for quilting that week as are two other tops that have been patiently waiting for my attention.
Shawn's quilt is a cousin quilt to the Hannah quilt. Both Mr. Shawn and Miss Hannah are great grands of a mighty fine quilter, my mom-in-law Pauline.

Gingkos Along Grand River Avenue
I counted 13 gingko trees on the south side of Grand River Avenue in East Lansing on the north side of the Michigan State University campus last weekend. Here is a view of the avenue, looking west, with eight of these magnificent trees numbered so that you can identify their autumn look.
The tree that is number 3 has lost all of its leaves. Gingkos are like that; one day they are splendidly yellow gold and the next, all their leaves have been shed.
My fascination with gingko trees reaches from Michigan to Japan where we saw stately gingko trees on the site of the atomic blast in Hiroshima. Lots of cities plant gingkos for their resistance to smog and pollution. The tree has a strong center "pole" and develops stubby secondary branches. Their distinctive fan shaped leaves make them an easy tree to identify.

Fat Squirrel
I guess that if you are a squirrel you have to take Thanksgiving when you can get it. This guy was doing exactly that when we spotted him in a grove of oak trees this week. The ground was peppered with acorns -- broken nuts, whole nuts, nibbled nuts. The squirrels -- I saw five --were fat, fat, fat!
I set both the focus and the metering on my Sony Cybershot to spot the exact center of the photo. That setting overexposed the branch background and highlighted this guy's bushy tail. I like the result.

Silver Sound
I heard it. I heard the silver sound of the trumpet section in the Spartan Marching Band yesterday afternoon from the sidelines at Spartan Stadium. J. T. Madden, director of the SMB, arranged sideline passes for Ed and me so that we would get to experience the band's performance at a football game up close and personal.
The sound of 300 brass, wind and percussion players, all in concert together, filling an outdoor stadium on a 50 degree sunny day in fall is incredible. It envelopes you with its purity and brassiness -- with the rising thunder of the percussion, with the brilliance of the trumpets and mellophones, with the sheer throatiness of the saxes, and the earthy, rooted bass of the baritones and the tuba line.
Mr. Madden's dream of having each section playing the same instrument comes clear when one hears the trumpet line with their new silver instruments. It's as if all the players are blowing into the same organ pipe. There is a unity, a clarity in the sound that we absorbed as we listened on the sideline yesterday.
"This is a special thing that we get to do together on Saturdays," Mr. Madden told the band as they gathered on Dem Field after the game. "There are people who would give anything to be doing what you get to do as a part of this band."
Then instruments are lowered and placed aside. Arms around each other's shoulders, in one voice, acapella, they sing the MSU Alma Mater. Now the sound of choral oneness drifts across the field and runs along the pathways where golden maples and rusty oaks cast their shadows on an autumn afternoon.
It, too, is a silver sound. It is the sound of students who choose to be a part of a greater good, to be in the band, to make music together, to perform. In harmony, the day ends with, "MSU, we love thy shadows," almost a hymn to the belonging that has made the Spartan Marching Band, with its silver sound, a defining experience for countless students through the years.

Fall Walnuts
The black walnut tree on the west side of the driveway at Graywood Farm is loaded with nuts this fall. Great Grandma Clara Eichler raised this tree in her garden at her house on Michigan Avenue in Pigeon. There were at least four walnut trees around her house and she would nurture the little trees in the garden.
Ed and his father John Eichler moved the tree using a John Deere bucket tractor, maybe in 1980. We had moved to the farm in 1979 and Grandma wanted the tree out of her garden. The tree was probably 15 years old when it was moved. All of that math makes the tree 45 years old.
John was concerned that the tree wouldn't grow after transplanting it since the tap root had to be cut off. The tree took a few years rest but has come to really like its anchor location near the farmhouse. When the leaves are out on the black walnut, usually by Mother's Day in May, we know that spring has come to the farm.

Mary and Me in Houston
Not to confuse my Dad who reads this blog every day, but here is a photo of my sister MB and me in Houston during Quilt Festival last year. I'm in Michigan this year and MB is in Houston for Quilt Market and Festival which is held at the George R. Brown Convention Center in downtown Houston.
I'm missing being at the epicenter of quilting this year. Lots of things have happened that kept me in Michigan and that's okay. But last year was a great year and this photo of MB and me shows two happy campers at the big quilt shindig.

Quilt of the Decade
I spent most of yesterday piecing on this quilt that has been in progress for all of ten years. Or is it nine? I'm not sure. I will have to look back at the photo archives to find out.
Anyway, the blocks are from a Dresden Plate class that I taught for the Thumb Area Quilt Guild way back when. Zita Sturm convinved the students to "give back" their blocks and she pieced a 20 block top for me out of those blocks. But then, I received more blocks from the class, given to me heartfeltly, and those blocks begged to be in the quilt.
So, I reverse sewed (quiltspeak for ripping seams) and reimagined the quilt larger to include all of the blocks. The little nine patch blocks in red and cream found their way into the sashing. They really add zing to the composition.
My goal? To sleep under this quilt on Christmas Eve. Now that the top is almost done, that means that I will have to fire up my long arm machine, the trusty Gammill, and get busy. All things are possible in the weeks before Christmas, right?

1/29 is Chinese New Year. This year is year of DOG, students from Taiwan and China held a small gathering party to celebrate. Seems that it's interesting for domestic students from a small sampling. Next year, without interview and other stuffs, we could have a bigger party for all.
It's "Spring" in Chinese. Usually, we attach this sheet upside down on the wall, upside down in Chinese sounds like coming. So, it means Spring is coming.
It's Good Fortune, Luck, or Happiness. Coming....Ya...
old fashion gesture....
A little decoration
our samples
lots of food.

Summer Squash 101
Local farmers markets are full of freshly picked Summer squash. Both summer and winter squashes are members of the gourd family. All summer squashes are similar in flavor. They may be shredded or cut into thin slices and eaten raw, or cooked by sauteing, stir frying, boiling, steaming or broiling. Zucchini and crookneck yellow squash can be cut into length slices, coated with olive oil, balsamic vinegar and sea salt, then grilled (a personal favorite of mine). Sliced summer squashes can battered and pan-fried or deep-fried. All summer squashes can be halved, hollowed out, filled and baked - or made into soups, stews or, perhaps most notably, ratatouille!
Squash blossoms, particularly those of zucchini, can be sauted and used in a quesadilla, panini, pasta or soup. They can also be filled with a herbed cheese, then battered and deep-fried. No matter how you prepare them, squash blossoms are always a hit on any summer menu.
Storing: Put summer squashes in a perforated plastic bag and keep in the crisper section of your refrigerator for up to three days. Use squash blossoms, ideally, within 24 hours. Store blossoms wrapped in damp paper towel, inside a plastic airtight bag.

So with that being said, here is the moment that triggered Jason/Patrick's insanity.
Rid Me of this Sinner
Only three are left. I will have done the same as my mother eight years
ago; the night she spared my life and showed me the world was an ugly
place to live in. It was a place so cruel and menacing that it changed the
deepest part of her soul. In a fraction of a second, a light came to her
she had told me.
8 years ago – Crystal Lake
The rain was pouring down hard on the cabin roof. Lightning was sounding
off in the background. The wind was clashing at the outer walls, creaking
and howling. Jason was crouched in the corner, hiding besides the couch.
He held his younger sister tight in his arms. Both had heard the screams
outside and feared the worst. He was ten, her eight. His young mind
imagining goblins and trolls, hers witches and ghouls. He didn't cry but
shivered, she bawled and sat stiffly.
"What do you reckon is going on out there?" He said as lightning crashed
"I'm scared, Jason." She whimpered, lisping that "s" in the middle. She
wrapped her little arms around her brother. "You're going to protect me,
right?" She looked up at him, her blue eyes flooded with fresh tears; her
mouth quivering uncontrollably.
"Of course, I will Jodie. It's just the wind and the trees." As she went
to kiss him on the cheek, the door blew open bringing in wind, rain and
leaves. Pamela was at the door, her eyes blank as Jason had never seen.
She was wielding a machete and blood trickled off the rusted edge. She
took one look at her son, and then another glance at her daughter.
"You filthy whore!" Pamela shrieked, running towards the end of the room,
the machete raised high above her head. Her face was contorted with anger
and blind rage. Jason cried out and screamed while Jodie began running for
the door. Pamela and Jodie met halfway and the mother grabbed the daughter
by the hair and threw her against the wall. Jodie lay unconscious, her
brown locks shielding her face from view.
Jason cowered back as his mother walked towards him. To this day, he still
remembered the look in her eyes. Back then he had called it a different
name, now he called it passion.
"They have sinned, my boy; sinned, like no faithful sinner can sin in a
lifetime. Whores of the grandest way possible. Brides of the devil and
bearers of demon children. They reek of fowl blood and evil desires. The
light has finally been drawn on me, my boy. Me. The great Lord above has
chosen me to rid this earth of sinners." She laughed at this, and then
stopped in a flash only to start laughing again. Jason crawled back and
closed his eyes, praying for strength.
"Don't cower from your destiny boy. Your sister is a sinner. You will
listen to mother." She said tenderly, handing the machete to her son.
Jason looked at it, but didn't want to touch it. It was covered in blood.
"Kill her Jason. Kill her, boy. They are all whores! No different one from
the other. They sneak around and break up families and lives and HEARTS!"
she said, screaming out the last word. She walked to the door and looked
back at her son.
"I give you five minutes to listen to God and rid me of this sinner." She
added without looking back, and closed the door as she walked out the

West Island trains, Champlain Bridge top priorities for transport officials
Quebec Transport Minister Robert Poeti meets with ATM officials for the first time
Improving public transit for Montreal's West Island residents is one of the top priorities for Quebec's new transport minister Robert Poeti.
Poeti met today with officials from the Agence métropolitaine de transport (AMT) for the first time to discuss several of Montreal's transport issues.
"There's a lot of demand from the municipalities of the West Island. They want more services so that was one of the subjects we discussed at this meeting with Mr. Poeti and we will have eventually other meetings to discuss that subject," said Nicolas Girard, president of the commuter train agency.
The meeting was scheduled for two hours, but it lasted more than three hours.
The AMT recently held public consultations on how it plans to improve transit in the West Island.
Officials will present their reports to Poeti in the coming weeks.
Champlain Bridge tops the agenda
Poeti said while improving transit for West Island residents is on his list of priorities, the first issue he will deal with is the new Champlain Bridge.
"I have to give answers for the Champlain Bridge at the end of June to the federal government. That is going to be our first priority," Poeti said.
The ministry must decide what kind of public transit system to implement on the new span.
Girard and Poeti said they are evaluating the options of light rail transit or rapid bus service.
It seems the AMT favours the train option while the provincial government seems to think buses may be cheaper.
Poeti said all options will be studied.
"I have not excluded any solution — and that includes light rail transit .. When you shop for a car, you ask yourself what your needs are. You ask what your maintenance fees will be and finally, I hope you ask yourself how much it costs."
A final decision is expected from the transport ministry before the government's budget is tabled in June.

Citizens Advice Broxtowe is set to operate a drop in advice clinic every Monday morning at Kimberley Health Centre.
The sessions will start at the centre on Newdigate Street from November 2, 9am to 12 noon).
Citizens Advice Broxtowe is a registered charity and has been serving the needs of the community for more than 40 years from local offices in Beeston and Eastwood and an outreach in Stapleford.
Sally Bestwick, Chief Executive said: "We are really excited about this new venture and being able to offer this new free service to the Kimberley Community.
"The service is open to any local residents who need help and advice avoiding the need to travel to our Eastwood office.
"We will also take referrals from health care professionals."
She said CAB has wanted to get into Kimberley for a long time as residents have to use expensive public transport or face parking costs to visit the other offices.
"We have had an outreach in Stapleford for 10 years now and it has been really successful.
We know it works and we think we will be able to replicate that in Kimberley."
She said funding would guarantee a paid adviser at the centre for the first year.
She added; "The outreach is guaranteed for that time, so I would urge people to use it."
The main issues people seek advice on from CAB are benefits and debt problems.
Ms Bestwick said: "We have specialist advisers but we can give advice on absolutely anything at all. The current changes in Universal Credit are just starting to affect people who are new onto benefits.
"People are finding themselves in rent arrears and are having to rely more on food banks.
"There is a whole raft of complicated changes coming gradually over the next two to three years and people will need advice."
"Another change will be that all benefits will have to be applied for online."
Broxtowe CAB, which has 17 staff and 65 volunteers is coming to the end of a three year Lottery grant.
Sally said: "The Citizens Advice Service would not exist without its volunteers and as we're the UK's largest advice charity we are always looking for people in a variety of different roles.
"Volunteers take on a range of roles from giving advice to fundraising, admin, campaigning and trusteeship.
"If you are interested in volunteering please contact us on 01773 768363." Visit www.citizensadvicebroxtowe.org.uk.

Facebook Custom Audiences
Using Facebook Custom Audiences, businesses can connect to users who aren't already connected to them. In-short, it's an advertising as well as a targeting tool that will help businesses grow and sustain their audiences.
To use this feature, you'll need to visit Facebook's Ad Manager, and downloading Power Editor from there. It works with Google Chrome, so be sure to be on Chrome when you download it.
You can select Custom Audiences from the Ad Manager. Once you do, you'll see a dialog box where you can create a list of users via email, ID, or phone number. You don't have to be connected to these users. You could, for example, get the email addresses from your email leads list, or something similar.
Businesses can make use of this feature to get in touch with people they don't have a connection with. This is especially useful for businesses who have a physical location or an online website where a lot of people come, but they might not have connected via Facebook. In such cases, just like lead lists, businesses could make use of phone numbers or email addresses to get in touch with those customers.
More features
To extend the functionality of this new promotion option, Facebook has teamed up with some marketing companies such as Datalogix, Epsilon, BlueKai, and Acxiom etc, and will allow any business working with these companies to use data they collect and customize their marketing campaigns with Custom Audiences.
Supposedly, businesses that work with other companies not teamed up with Facebook will also be able to use customer data. Facebook also says that it will provide some pre-defined lists of customers for businesses to use. For example, list of customers who want to buy a new Volkswagen, fashion buyers, and so on.
So what do you think of this exciting new feature? Leave your responses in the comments below or give it a thumbs up. CHeers

Kyle Drabek's sprained UCL will require Tommy John surgery, Blue Jays manager John Farrell said Monday. Drabek had his first Tommy John surgery in high school before the Phillies made him the 18th overall pick in the 2006 draft. He was sent to Toronto in the Roy Halladay trade and he made his major league debut at the end of the 2010 season. While Drabek was a major bust in 2011, he was back showing plenty of promise this year, particularly in the spring and in April, a month he finished 3-2 with a 2.40 ERA. Unfortunately, wildness took hold after that, possibly because something was going wrong in his elbow. At the time he was placed on the DL this month, he was 4-7 with a 4.67 ERA and an ugly 47/47 K/BB ratio in 71 1/3 innings.

When designing my classification system, I knew one question would come up eventually… "What about Triple-changers?"
As it turns out, I have answers, but my way of reaching there is slightly more subjective than the logic building the foundation of the types-system as a whole. For demonstrating the new concepts, I will take a look at the three most iconic Triple-changers; Springer, Astrotrain and Blitzwing.
First, let´s start off with something simple; G1 Springer. His two alternate modes are very similar, and achieved by the same reorientation pattern: fall-forward. Hence, there is no discussion, Springer is a type A0 Transformer.
What about G1 Astrotrain and Blitzing? Here, it admittedly gets tricky; as for Astrotrain, if we look at the transformation to his Space Shuttle mode we get "simple fallback" (C0) and for his train mode "fall-back-rotate-2-quarters" (C2). As for Blitzwing, while the tank mode is achieved through "fall-back-rotate-2-quarters" (C2), the jet mode is achieved through "fall-forward-rotate-2-quarters" reorientation (A2). It thus seems that we need to find a way to prioritize one alt-mode over the other, as the one determining multi-changing bots´type designation, but how?
I initially thought of determining a primary alt-mode for triple changers to decide their type. This primary alt-mode would be determined through identifying which alt-mode takes the fewest steps to achieve from robot mode, i.e. some sort of "rule of the shortest path" would decide. I then however questioned on which ground the simplest mode to achieve would be considered "primary" and designating for types. As it is, I have not yet figured out a good reason based on the toy´s design only.
I also realized that this approach would require me to count transformation steps for all of Sixshot´s six alt-modes…
Hende, I have chosen a slightly different, admittedly more subjective approach where we grade all possible reorientation patterns according to their level of complexity and then let the most complex alt-mode decide the type. So what is "complex"?
It is perhaps obvious that a A2 reorientation is more complex than A0, as reorientation in two planes is required for the former, but how do we grade A, B and C against each other? For rising complexity, exactly in that order. A is the most basic type, and C the most "evolved". This for the following reasons:
– Although I have not counted it yet, my general feeling is that the A0 reorientation pattern is the most common one among Cybertronians, and could thus be interpreted as the basic rep from which the others have evolved.
-A0 is also the most "natural" reorientation scheme. If you think about it, it is the equivalent of Transformers getting down and walking on all fours, which some, like Ravage, Steeljaw and Ramhorn actually are doing from the outset! Although there are several origin stories for Transformers as a race/species, there also seems to be some kind of Cybertronian "fauna" including the likes of turbofoxes, which look like… mechanical foxes. Further, in the IDW G1 continuity Soundwave´s beast cassettes are looked down on as being inferior, seemingly because animals are considered more lowly, primitive creatures. This could be interpreted as if humanoid Cybertronians stem from a more primitive form of mechanical life, which supposedly was quadrupedal, and when assuming alt-modes, A0-type robots simply revert to Cybertronians´ original body posture, in a way.
-Even if we ignore theories of Cybertronian evolution, walking on all fours is still a more natural, less strained form of locomotion than squat-walking (B0) and crab walking (C0). Crawling on all fours is the first mode of locomotion for human babies as it requires less strength and balance, it could therefore be considered more basic.
Above: Crab-walking, a sadly under-utilized mode of locomotion
Thus, we will get the following order of rising complexity: A0, B0, C0, A1, B1, C1, A2, B2, C2… and so forth.
So which reorientation pattern should be considered the determining one for a multi-changing Transformer´s type? I would say that simply by possessing a "higher grade" reorientation pattern, it has been "evolutionary achieved" and is thus the signifying one, and what sets triple changers apart from other Transformers is that they retain earlier alt-modes as they achieve new ones.
As for Astrotrain, the space shuttle mode is achieved by reorientation pattern C0, which is more basic than the one needed for the train mode, rep C2. Thus, the space shuttle (or Cybertronian equivalent) can be considered his original alt mode whereas his train mode (Earth mode?) is the more "evolved", and hence designating one. Alas, Astrotrain´s type is C2.
As for Blitzwing, his jetmode (A2) requires a reorientation pattern more basic than his tank mode (C2), thus the jet is his original, primary alt mode, however, as the tank rop is the higher graded, it is the designating one, making him C2 as well.
I am well aware that my motivation for level of complexity for reorientation patterns is more subjective than the self-evident concept of the reorientation-based classification itself. If we don´t consider Cybertronian evolution and human anatomy, why should the most advanced (C3 or higher) alt mode be designating the type of a given triple changer? Instead, aren´t they all simply all types whose reorientation pattern they employ? I am also aware that implying "personal evolution" among Transformers includes that they may learn to achieve new alt modes through new reorientation schemes over time. How do you think about all this? I am eager to hear your opinion, as well as other ideas, if you have any!
In the next, and for now, concluding part, I will look at way of describing transformation schemes as a compact code of numbers and letters, wait for it!
My usual thanks to Seibertron and TFWiki for the reference pics!

Question about 2003 Toyota Corolla
Don't have remotes anymore. Alarm keeps going off. Can't start car. How can we disable alarm?
Posted by donna_carlon on
Chop it out / the alarm system is wired paralel / here's a site that will help ( www.the12volt.com ) good luck
Posted on Nov 19, 2009
I have a Code Alarm and needed to replace the battery. Funny thing is, I never knew I had the alarm until this problem happened (bought the minivan used). Town and Country 2006. Anyway, it turned out to be a real simple fix for me (after spending several hours messing with it).
Get some thick gloves on to make you feel safer (I'm not an electrician and always fear I'll shock myself when dealing with the car battery)
Unhook the negative on the battery (black). Place key in the ignition and turn to the point where you would normally be able to run all things electric without the car starting. Re-attach the negative cable. You may hear several clicks at this point as if the electric system is doing its job. Try starting the vehicle. Alarm should not go off and the vehicle should start.
I found that anytime I disconnect the battery, the car alarm problem returns. This includes if the battery died (and I don't disconnect it). Good luck.
If this works, then make sure the negative battery cable is tightened onto the battery so it doesn't come loose.

It occurs when the disease fighting capability of the physical body destroys the beta cells, is the insulin making cells of the pancreas. Type 2 diabetes also known as adult-onset or noninsulin-dependent diabetes that affects the blood sugar in the body. In this, the physical body does not make enough insulin or cannot utilize insulin properly. People with type2 diabetes generally possess high blood glucose which might raise various problems like nerve damage, eyesight issue, kidney and heart diseases.Therefore, also in the very best of information systems that contain advanced notification features, patients with abnormal imaging email address details are vulnerable to 'falling through the cracks.'

.....Gets his present, on Monday I turned 26 and had the day off work sorted out a while ago, choosing what to target was fairly difficult as there was the Pike and carry on the good vein of form, go after some large chalk stream Rutilus Rutilus or spend a few hours roving for a Barbel and after much deliberation, that was my choice.
For October the weather was very warm and it still felt like summer and with the sun out, hardly any clouds in the sky, fish with a pair of polariods on were very easy to see and saw fish in swims that I haven't seen them in all season, though I haven't fished for Barbel much due to my targeting of the Pike recently and a mix of different species in the earlier part of the season, but both the Barbel and Chub were in positions that were almost impossible to cast to or even trot down to and maintain good presentation.
One Chub did slip up, a chunky 3.5 taken on the ever impressive cane rod trotting a small piece of meat, second cast and the 6BB Drennan Avon float hit the bottom of the river, good little scrapper, after that we headed off upstream, trotting through all the swims we could access, after short period of time the whistling that always proceeds Stu started to sound in the distance, it wasn't long before he got to us, looking through the water onto the bottom I started making out shapes on the bottom, Barbel! and a few of them, two of which were big fish were around 9-10lbs, that would be a nice present I thought to myself and that Chris my bro' and Stuart were standing there watching me meant that I had to catch the biggest just to show off.
So after 20 minutes of persevering I changed from the trotting and switched over to my favourite tactic which sorts out the feeders and the shy, a couple of minutes slipped by and whack!, the rod hooped over and I struck, nothing!, what probably happened was the Barbel picked up the bait or nudged it, to test it's credability and evidentally failed it's test, a short while later it happened again and I saw the Barbel come up in the water to meet it and the same thing happened, I saw with my own eyes what happened and it was the latter, the Barbel came up and tested the bait and dropped it and to rub it in, it was the biggest of all the shoal.
Well above is that fish at 10lb 9oz, a double which I was so chuffed about, the fight on my split cane rod was phenominal and the look on Stuart's face whilst I was playing it was the look of horror and I have to be honest, this was the sternest test it has had yet and was unsure of what it's capability was, but the picture of me with my a good birthday fish is the proof that the rod held firm and has probably never seen such a fight and it also had a bit of a sentimental value about it too, as the original owner of the rod, George, my girlfriends late granddad, passed away 6th October 2011, so two years after his passing and I deployed the Seeley into the best possible battle I think I could have had, truly perfect, the third time lucky trick, the bait vanished but I left it 2-3 seconds then struck, again the rest is history.
Later on during the session there was cause for celebration for Chris aswell, after catching my Barbel I was teaching him how to roll and what to do, we roved around a mile or so of river and after a while it all started to come together and on a 3rd roll through he had a tug on the rod and after a few minutes he had his first ever Barbel rolling, a good day all around.
Proper battler at 4lbs.

CME Information
Online Symposia Highlights from TOS's 2017 Annual Meeting at ObesityWeek: Examining Successful Obesity Practice Models in a Variety of Delivery Settings
At the conclusion of this activity, participants will be able to:
- Incorporate knowledge about coding for reimbursement into the clinical practice of health care providers to support their ability to treat the underlying disease of overweight and obesity
- Incorporate knowledge about best practices to develop and run effective clinics that treat overweight and obesity
This activity is supported by an educational grant from Novo Nordisk.
Accreditation Statement
This activity has been planned and implemented in accordance with the accreditation requirements and policies of the Accreditation Council for Continuing Medical Education (ACCME) through the joint providership of Boston University School of Medicine and PlatformQ Health Education, LLC. Boston University School of Medicine is accredited by the ACCME to provide continuing medical education for physicians.
Credit Designation Statements
Enduring Material
Boston University School of Medicine designates this enduring material for a maximum of 1.5 AMA PRA Category 1 Credits™. Physicians should claim only the credit commensurate with the extent of their participation in the activity.
Program Overview
Most recent national estimates suggest that 36% of adults and 17% of youth in the United States are considered obese. Further, comorbidities secondary to obesity contribute to a significant decrease in patients' quality of life and increase in economic burden. With multiple possible etiologies, clinicians are continuously challenged to provide effective approaches in obesity and overweight management. Primary care physicians play an important role in the management of chronic illnesses especially obesity. However, they feel unequipped and inadequately supported to address the complexity of an efficient and coordinated management of overweight and obesity clinics. Furthermore, they ascribe the inability to lose weight to a lack of patient motivation and adherence to weight management therapies, particularly those involving lifestyle changes in diet and exercise. The Centers for Medicaid and Medicare Services (CMS) reimburses for obesity intensive behavioral therapy rendered in the primary care setting, but challenges in reimbursement remain beyond the 6-month contingency of 3-kg weight loss. Furthermore, several societies and organizations, including, TOS, the American Heart Association and the American College of Cardiology, recommend that physicians screen for overweight and obesity in their practice and provide intensive behavioral counseling. Despite the reimbursement incentive and recommendation, the rates of screening and counseling remain low in these settings. Multidisciplinary clinic models, documentation/coding approaches, and electronic health record protocol implementations are all potential solutions and should be made available and accessible to clinicians. Clinicians would benefit from education by experts from obesity clinics in various settings with discussions focused on effective practice models for overweight and obesity clinics, recommendations on appropriate coding for reimbursement with suitable documentation, and insights on implementing an electronic health record that supports an obesity management protocol. Education on practical approaches to run an effective obesity medicine clinic/practice will enable primary care and community clinicians to be more inclined to impact the lives of their patients and slow the epidemic.
Intended Audience
The intended audience for this activity consists of health care providers of people who may be obese and need pharmacotherapeutic interventions and includes the following groups:
The target audience consists of physicians (general medicine, internal medicine, family practice), endocrinologists, surgeons, pediatricians, dietitians, psychologists, physician assistants, nurses, nurse practitioners, rehabilitation/exercise therapists, physical/occupational therapists, clinicians, nutritionists, trainees, basic and clinical research scientists, and social workers
- Providers: Physicians (primary care and those of relevant specialties such as endocrinology or cardiology), nurse practitioners, physician assistants
- Lifestyle specialists: Mental health providers, dietitians/nutritionists, exercise professionals
Date of Release/Expiration
Enduring Material
The enduring material will be available from November 30, 2017 – May 30, 2018.

Blonde thoughts
Now I use it as a put down.
[Orginally published with a request for advice from punctuation pendants, especially I. Updated after that great goddess of punctuation provided her advice.]

I'd make it all one run-on paragraph, and put the comma inside the quotes. :-)
Also, that's an excellent put-down.
- JK said...
Very funny. Have you gotten any blonde jokes yet?
I make a lot of blonde/blond jokes 'cause my husband, he is blond. He is very smart, but every so often he does something that is so blond it is funny. (Did you notice the lack of e on the blond for him... :-)
Oh... About the nanny (you posted on my blog)... I just can't deal with another change now. We've actually had 4 nannies thus far, plus a lot of baby sitter types. It also looks like Mary Poppins is staying and not going.
- RUTH said...
I haven't had many blonde jokes but I have had enough :-)
I'm suitably impressed with your linguistic perspicacity (and I did have to check how to spell it).
In New Zealand English (and British English) blond is a special case of blonde. In American English blonde is a special case of blond. Strange but true.
- JK said...
How topsy-turvy of us re: blonde versus blond and blond versus blonde.
I must say also that I am a big Orson Scott Card fan too. (Your profile says you are. I think I liked Children of the Mind best out of the Ender Series... The first Bean parallel novel was great. The second was even okay... I don't think I made it through the third. I think I liked Enchantment best out of his other books.... I don't know... I've read so many of his books.)

Laboratory Medicine (Pathology)
Clinical Biochemistry (also known as Clinical Chemistry or Chemical Pathology) is the study of the chemical and biochemical processes of the body in their relation to disease.
In the Clinical Biochemistry laboratory, scientists carry out a wide range of tests to find out more about your child's condition, or to monitor their progress. These tests are based on levels of chemicals in the blood or urine, for example in Diabetes, which alters sugar levels in blood.
Information for professionals
Our Biochemistry lab handbook has a complete set of information for professionals including opening hours, key contacts and services required.

text: In the context of the EU's CHEETAH project, ZSW is researching the suitability of CIGS micro solar cells for use in low to medium-concentrated irradiation conditions, for instance in modules with integrated micro lenses. Such concepts promise both higher efficiency as a direct consequence of the degree of light concentration and savings in the field of semiconductor material if the respective micro cells are specifically manufactured with the help of print technologies or other methods. For a start, the project has adopted an approach involving preparing cells with dimensions in the mm range and below, from large-scale deposited standard cells and solving associated problems, such as insufficient edge insulation or losses arising from series resistance.

I'm never quite sure how to handle the taper. I'm sure I've never done it well.
So, this week I'm supposed to do 49 miles; a good 21 miles down from my peak. 49 miles isn't bad- it's an average of seven miles per day, which seems like a lot. But when I do the math for the required Q workouts by Daniels, those take out a good 30 miles out of the equation in two days, leaving me 19 to split among the remaining five.
19 miles. five days. Less than four a day. So I took Monday off, and I took today off, and I ran a very easy six on Wednesday. Tomorrow I get an easy five or so, and Sunday I'll do a loop of Pontiac with RUT. But one hard day in five just feels... wrong. Like my body is deciding that I'm not really serious about running anymore and wants to go back to days of 25 miles per week and no hard training.
I just hope I'm able to use the hard run to teach my body otherwise. Although it was originally scheduled for Friday, I've moved my Q1 workout to Saturday to run with the group at Kensington. It may well be one of the more tough workouts I get to do- 15 miles at marathon pace, with four miles of easy running. If I can't do it, I think I'll be screwed for the race, but it'll be exciting to find out!

I'm sure there are hundreds of board game themed websites, blogs, podcasts and the like, but the following are my personal favorites. If you think I'm missing out on some great ones, by all means drop me a line!
- Board Game Geek If you have anything more than a casual interest in board games you owe it to yourself to visit this site! The most extensive compilation of board game knowledge on the web, board game geek has pictures, reviews, rules, strategy tips, discussion, and news about almost every board game ever. The two features I find most useful: 1. User-voted "best with __ number of players" goes beyond the publisher suggested number of players to tell you a game's sweet spot. Just because a game says it supports 2-5 players doesn't mean it scales well along that range. 2. Especially for popular games,BGG acts as a compilation of user reviews. Being able to read 15 reviews of a game rather than one goes a long way toward accessing how much you might enjoy one particular title.
- Yehuda is a gentleman who authors a board game blog out of Jerusalem, Israel. He engages in lots of deep thinking about board games, so many of his longer posts will keep you thinking for quite some time. He also maintains a thoroughblogroll of current board game blogs, which is certainly a valuable resource and much appreciated.
- Skip Maloney: The Board Game Examiner Skip is a contributor to Games magazine and has been writing about games for quite some time. This experience shows, both in his excellent writing and his vast knowledge of board games. His site features reviews of many types of games from strategy to word to party games, and insightful commentary about the hobby.
- Tom Vasel: The Dice Tower Tom is a missionary, a math teacher, and has a wealth of knowledge about board games. He co-hosts The Dice Tower podcast with SamHealey , produces a video podcast, has written hundreds of board game reviews, and more recently begun to tape video reviews of board games. Certainly Tom is one of the most visible members of the worldwide board game community.
- Scott Nicholson: Board Games with Scott Scott produces excellent video reviews of board games. The production values are great and most of his reviews are very thorough. If you want to take a look at gamecomponents and see examples of play before you buy a new game, definitely check to see if there is an episode of Board Games with Scott about the game!
- Board Game News This is a site I've only begun to explore. Numerous contributors to the site author articles covering all aspects of the hobby. Also,BGN maintains a page called 'Gone Cardboard' that keeps track of all board game releases that have been announced for the coming year.
- The Spiel - Stephen Conway & Dave Coleson I just listened to my first episode of this excellent podcast yesterday, and boy was I blown away! The production values here are just tremendous: so good in fact that The Spiel would not feel at all out of place on mainstream radio (except for the geeky subject matter, of course). The hosts are extremely knowledgeable, well spoken, and enthusiastic. Some of their game reviews are so thorough and descriptive that I could almost skip the rules and dive right in to playing the game in question.
