Sumter Democrat to enter 5th District race
The race to fill an open S.C. congressional seat has its first Democratic candidate.
Archie Parnell of Sumter, a senior adviser at Goldman Sachs, will announce his candidacy in the 5th District's special election Tuesday, sources said Friday.
Parnell's campaign later confirmed he would announce his candidacy at 2:30 p.m. Tuesday in downtown York.
Parnell, 66, is a political novice but has more than 36 years of business experience on three continents, including Asia and Europe, according to his LinkedIn profile.
Parnell is the lone Democrat who has announced thus far for the party's primary for the 5th District seat. That House seat was left vacant when U.S. Rep. Mick Mulvaney, R-Indian Land, resigned to become President Donald Trump's budget director.
Meanwhile, seven Republicans have crowded into the GOP primary for a district that has become increasingly Republican. A Democrat, longtime U.S. Rep. John Spratt of York, last held the seat in 2011, losing his re-election bid to Mulvaney.
The last Democrat to challenge for the seat, former Vice President Joe Biden aide Fran Person, suffered a 20-point loss to Mulvaney in November. Democrats, however, hope their next 5th District candidate can harness what they see as a wave of anti-Trump energy to improve on that result.
Parnell is not politically active in Sumter but is extremely intelligent, said former Sumter Mayor Steve Creech, who lives across the street from Parnell.
Parnell went to high school in Sumter, and graduated from the University of South Carolina and its law school. He has worked as a trial attorney for the U.S. Department of Justice, as senior counsel for the U.S. House Ways and Means Committee, and as a tax attorney for ExxonMobil.
"He'll be the smartest candidate," Creech said.

Over the last little while, I've made quite a few things. Things I was proud of, and things that I threw in the trash. I've been sewing for a year and a half now, and I've made beautiful things, and things so ugly that even my mom didn't like them. I kept at it, and now I'm going to share with you some of the things I've made that I'm at least a little bit proud of over the last month. You can also check out my Instagram account for posts about what I've made, as I usually put them up there first.
I named all of my sets for simplicity's sake, so here it goes:
First up is the 'Michelle' set, inspired by the OhhhLulu Rose Garden set. I loved the fit but wanted something a bit more fall-appropriate, so I bought a beautiful, soft rose-adorned knit in autumnal colors.
The bottoms are the OhhhLulu Grace hispter pattern, with mesh sides instead of lace. I finished the legs with lace, and tied a little bow and sewed it on.
The bra pattern is OhhhLulu's 'Sarah' longline pattern. I used the recommended foldover elastic, and finised it with lace at the bottom instead of the same elastic.
The 'Christina' bra is something that my friend commissioned me to make for her. It's using an autumn floral with a little eggplant-colored bow, which I hope you can see in the picture (it's from her Instagram).
The pattern is self-drafted, and uses the same pattern as below.
This is the 'Sierra' set, made with black and white gingham spandex, black lace, and a little raspberry red-colored bow:
The bra pattern is self-drafted, derived from my self-drafted triangle bra pattern. I think this is my favorite set because I love the color combination as well as the feel of the fabrics.
I think the best part of this set is the back:
The underwear pattern is self-drafted.
The next bra is called 'Flora', and I couldn't get my cover-stitch machine up and working in time to make the matching panties.
This was one of my first few times working with satin, and I learned what a finicky fabric it is. Slippery, and stitches show up really easily on it, so if you mess up, it really shows (something I learned the hard way). I used lace, lilac satin, and foldover elastic.
Next up is the 'Sasha' set. This is another favorite of mine, and it's entirely self-drafted. The panties are a Brazilian/hispter hybrid cut that I'm still developing, but so far, I'm really happy with the fit because they don't ride up at all.
I've grown to be fond of the yellow back-closure– I think it adds a nice touch.
My final project that I'm going to show you today is also a self-drafted pattern that I got after heavily modifying a few patterns that I had already. I call it the 'Hope', and I'm in love with the print. I bought another 3 metres of it after I ran out of of my first metre.
This is one of my older designs (about a month ago I made it), so I was still using my sucky back closures because I refused to buy the good ones ("$2 for a single back closure? Are they high?") But I broke down and bought a bunch after Merckwaerdigh had a sale, so now my back closures look much prettier and sew on a lot easier.
I love the shape this one gives me, it's so round and perky. I'll definitely be making more of these.
I'm also working on a few more patterns right now, and let me tell you, it's no easy. If you draft patterns and sew, you probably know the headache that comes with pattern-drafting. Hopefully I'll be done them in another few weeks, so I can update you guys again and make another me-made post. I've started working with silk and satin and lace a lot more now, so you'll hopefully see a lot more of that.
Do you prefer silk, satin, and lace, or are you more of a knits and cotton girl?
Let me know down below!
Thanks so much for reading. It means a lot to me when people read my posts that aren't a known brand review, but just me, with my machine.
Till next week!

Cabin Mate for Aug 20th Bahama's Cruise
I'm interested in finding a cabin mate for a cruise on the Carnival Sensation. It leaves from Port Canaveral on Thur, Aug 20th and returns Sun, Aug 23rd.
As for me, I'm very down to earth, not a real drinker (once in a blue moon), a non-smoker, more of a laid back (no drama) kind of guy. I'm looking for someone to pal around with, not hook up with. Someone close to my age is better (I'm 39). I definitely have a sense of humor, enjoy exercising, and am non-critical - I tend to get along with most people.
I've been on many cruises and just love going on them. My partner can't go, but I wish to go on a short cruise before school starts.
A little more about the cruise: You'd likely want to fly into Orlando. I'm hoping for the balcony cabin - $369 plus tax. It goes to Nassau.

We are so disappointed in the Trump administration decision to pull out of the Paris Climate Change agreement. This will literally send us back into the dark ages and leave the US behind the rest of the world in using renewable energy technology.
APE is committed to the Paris Climate Accord and will continue to provide Solar Power Systems
Climate change is real and is caused by humans. Our goal at APE is to provide a means to reverse Climate Change one house at a time. All the obvious benefits of going solar, like saving money by lowering your electric bill, using Green energy, security, independence, all pale in comparison to the positive effect you can have on our planet. We encourage you to allow us give you a quote on a solar Photovoltaic system to power your home and help reverse the effects of Climate Change. Its time for us all to implement tried and true Solar Power

Richard Andrews Architects is a thriving and creative design-led architectural practice providing services to commercial and domestic clients across the UK with current projects in Guildford, Twickenham and of course, on our doorstep in Newport, South Wales.
Our attention to detail is excellent, ensuring that the whole design process for each client runs efficiently and smoothly, delivering great results to the highest standard for every project that we design.
Our success with planning applications is 98% to which we attribute the use of 3D modelling.
Richard Andrews Architects is a Chartered Practice with the RIBA (Royal Institute of British Architects).
Our Clients Say
We contacted Richard Andrews Architects initially for their free 1 hour consultation to discuss having a 2 storey side extension to our existing house. We were visited by Lewis Shaw who listened to our ideas / requirements. He explained the various stages in carrying out the survey, designing the plans through to the tendering stage to implement the contract for building the extension. We found Lewis very approachable and interested in our project and so we decided to use the services of RA Architects. Over the next few weeks Lewis surveyed, designed the plans for the extension and kept us informed of developments during the planning stages through to tendering. Lewis was always happy to make any slight adjustments to the design and specifications which we asked for and went the extra mile for us. I found everyone at RA Architects team to be friendly and helpful when contacting them and also felt we were a valued client.
I would highly recommend Richard Andrews Architects to my friends and would like to thank Lewis Shaw personally for all he did for us during this building extension project.
Brian Bently – Rowan Way, Malpas, Newport
Richard listened to our requirements and came up with an innovative design that fully filled the brief. Professional and personable service.
Steffan John – Druidstone Road, Old St Mellons
My dilemma was I needed an architect, artist and innovative thinker to put onto paper my idea to develop an underground events venue which also has to meet all the legislation criteria. Discovering Richard Andrews has been like winning the jackpot. Nothing is too much trouble and the results are fantastic all made better because Richard is such a pleasure to work with.
Peter Dale – Groomes Events Centre, Borden
My wife and I were contemplating having an extension added to our property. I met Richard Andrews around 6 months ago through a local football team, recently learning of his profession as an architect. I had an informal discussion regarding what my wife and I had in mind for property. I then asked Richard to take on the job of providing the plans. He visited my home, where we had an in depth talk f what I wanted, before he spent a few hours taking all required measurements. Richard explained everything clearly, and was very professional in his approach. The drawings provided gave a clear visual of what the finished build would look like, and was detailed. After the plans were submitted to planning, Richard maintained regular contact, providing me with updates. As a result of Richards work, planning was recently approved. I would highly recommend Richard to anyone seeking the services of an architect.
Steve Verrinder – Pilton Vale, Newport
We owned a large detached house in a conservation area which we wanted to separate in to two semis.
Once we had the idea of dividing the house in to two separate properties it was a case of contacting architects to see the way forward. The first few architects we met were all for the idea but kept putting barriers in our way with regards to building regulations planning etc that made our initial thoughts cost prohibited.
Then by chance we met Richard. What a breath of fresh air. He visited our home, where we had an in-depth talk of what we wanted and immediately understood what we wanted to achieve. He spent a few hours taking all required measurements so that he could come up with suggestions and alternatives for the use of the available space. Richard explained everything clearly and was very professional in his approach. The drawings provided gave a clear visual of what the finished build would look like, showing imaginative design to maximise the potential of the project. After we agreed the plans Richard submitted them to planning ensuring that the process was trouble free for us. Richard also arranged a meeting with building regulation consultants who oversaw the change of use building work and signed off the job.
We would highly recommend Richard to anyone seeking the services of an architect.
Keith and Sue Greenslade – Newport
I found RA Architects through a Google search and took a chance as the business was pretty new.
I was immediately impressed by Richard's professionalism and his ideas. He listened to how we wanted to use our extension and came back with a number of options to talk through.
Once we had agreed a design and a cost Richard and Lewis took away all the pain – they drew up the planning application, produced the tender documents and sourced a number of contractors for us to meet and submit a tender. It was reassuring to know that the people tendering were approved by Richard and had all the necessary insurances and track record in place.
We decided on TLC Building Services from Cardiff and we couldn't have been happier. Tim and his team were a perfect fit for us and we would have no hesitation in recommending them to anyone. They worked tirelessly to build an extension we love and did so with good humour – they were a joy to have around.
Richard and Lewis visited at regular intervals to inspect the project, again taking away any stress.
Throughout the process RA Architects exceeded our expectations and I will use them again for any future projects I undertake.
Helen Humphrey – Llantarnam
Highly recommend service with full support through quite an unusual planning change of use. Great focus on client and service.
Bryan Gunton – The Small Space Theatre
To Lewis and the team at RA Architects. A big thank you for all your hard work and dedication to this project. Your professionalism has been exemplary and we would not hesitate to recommend you to others.
Sian Whitcombe – Practice Manager, Cwmbran Village Surgery

Considering so many young people look up to celebs, it can become especially crucial that stars act as role models when they are in the public eye. Luckily, there are many celebrities who put their A-list status toward good causes and use their influential voices and personas to inform society about important issues that affect all of us. They may not always be perfect role models in their personal lives, but they're only human, and are still trying to do good when and where they can. Here are 10 celebrities who are great role models for giving back to their community.PinterestPhoto: Courtesy of Instagram2/12Justin BieberSome of us were Beliebers right from the start, and many more were converted after Justin Bieber's November 2015 release of Purpose had us all asking, "Is it okay to think Justin Bieber is cool now?" (Um, excuse you, he's always been cool.) So, if you need one more reason to love the Biebs — or if you're looking for a reason to officially become a Belieber yourself — how about the fact that Justin has granted hundreds of wishes through the Make-A-Wish Foundation?Two years ago, Justin reached a milestone number of wishes — in August 2013, he became the first recording artist to grant 200 wishes. He's also worked closely with Charity: Water, a nonprofit dedicated to bringing clean water to every person in the world. We think we might love Justin even a bit more now.PinterestPhoto: Courtesy of Instagram3/12Taylor SwiftTaylor Swift has topped DoSomething.org's list of Celebs Gone Good for four years in a row now, making her one of the most charitable celebrities of our time.In 2015 alone, Taylor Swift donated over $100,000 to fans and families in need. Taylor is known for her public outreach to fans, like when she wrapped and sent holiday gifts to her fans for "Swiftmas." But Taylor's philanthropy goes beyond just sending checks and gifts: she's worked with Scholastic's READ Campaign to help promote literacy in schools, and she's made several surprise visits to hospitals to visit sick children.PinterestPhoto: Courtesy of Instagram4/12Jennifer HudsonOne of the biggest reasons why Jennifer Hudson is such a role model is the way she was able to turn a tragedy into a powerful vehicle for giving back to her community. In 2008, Jennifer's mother, brother, and nephew were murdered by her sister's estranged husband. The singer, along with her sister Julia, started a charity in memory of her nephew, Julian King. The Julian D. King Foundation's mission is to "provide stability, support, and positive experiences for children of all backgrounds to help enable them to grow to be productive, confident, and happy adults." The organization collects and distributes school supplies, toys, and clothes for children who are in need.Jennifer has also been involved with organizations dedicated to combat violence against women and girls, such as V-Day, as well as other charities that help underprivileged children throughout the world.PinterestPhoto: Courtesy of Instagram5/12Demi LovatoDemi Lovato put her glam-status to good cause when she partnered with Free the Children to allow fans a chance to bid on items from her wardrobe through eBay's "Giving Works" program. By putting her clothes up for auction, she was able to raise over $15,000 for the organization, which is dedicated to helping families and children find a way out of poverty.Demi has also worked with the Jed Foundation, a group that promotes emotional health and strives to prevent suicide among college and university students. Plus, she's vocal on social media about the importance of being an advocate for mental health awareness.PinterestPhoto: Courtesy of Instagram6/12ZendayaZendaya has worked with many different charities, including PETA, UNICEF, and, most notably, Convoy of Hope. This organization's mission expresses a passion to "feed the world through children's feeding initiatives, community outreach, and disaster response."Zendaya joined Convoy of Hope after Hurricane Sandy destroyed parts of New York and New Jersey back in 2012. She also partnered with Feed ONE and encouraged fans to wish her a happy birthday by donating to help end world hunger. She was able to donate over $6,000 each to Haiti, Tanzania, and the Philippines.PinterestPhoto: Courtesy of Instagram7/12PharrellIn 2008, singer Pharrell Williams founded From One Hand To AnOTHER (or, FOHTA) because he believed that "every child could be a success if they only had the right tools." The organization is dedicated to bringing tools, resources, and programs to help benefit the learning of underserved youth. The program has also partnered with President Obama's "Educate to Innovate" STEM initiative, which focuses on science and technology education for children.Additionally, Pharrell has worked with UNIQLO's "Warm Gesture" program, which helps provide children with warm clothing for the winter.PinterestPhoto: Courtesy of Instagram8/12BeyoncéIt seems like there's very little that Beyoncé can't do. Her charity, called #BeyGOOD, has worked toward several campaigns over the years — most recently, the organization is trying to provide aid for the people of Flint, Michigan. When tickets to her Formation tour went on sale, Beyoncé also gave fans the opportunity to donate money towards #BeyGOOD's partnership with United Way programs to help get clean water to Flint.In addition to her own charity work, Beyoncé has donated her own money toward several organizations, including the Kids Wish Network, Feeding America, and the Lunchbox Fund.PinterestPhoto: Courtesy of Instagram9/12Carrie UnderwoodIn 2009, Carrie Underwood launched The C.A.T.S. Foundation, which was established to help the country star's hometown of Checotah, Oklahoma. The organization is dedicated to aiding both humans and animals by providing supplies and programs to local schools, as well as the building of a new animal shelter.Carrie's love for animals doesn't stop with her own charity; she has also partnered with the Humane Society of the United States to raise money toward animal welfare.PinterestPhoto: Courtesy of Instagram10/12Laverne CoxLast summer, Laverne Cox participated in the 25th production of Broadway Bares, an annual burlesque show that is dedicated toward raising money for Broadway Cares/Equity Fights AIDS. The show, which played for one night only, brought in $1.6 million in 2015, contributing to a total of $14.3 million the show has raised over the years for BCEFA.Additionally, Laverne participated in the Go Red for Women show during last year's Fashion Week. The annual show partners with the American Heart Association, to raise money for healthier lives and research about heart disease. She has also been an advocate for the LGBTQ community, and continues to serve as an inspiring role model to her fans.PinterestPhoto: Courtesy of Instagram11/12Leonardo DiCaprioIt's not a secret that Leonardo DiCaprio cares a lot about the environment. When he accepted his first Academy Award this year, he spoke about the very real threat of climate change and ended his speech with, "Let us not take this planet for granted." Leo established his own charity in 1998, called The Leonardo DiCaprio Foundation. The organization is devoted to the protection of the "world's last wild places." The LDF's current projects include campaigns to help wild tigers in Nepal, partnership with the Elephant Crisis Fund, and a project to prevent the extinction of gorillas in central Africa.In addition to these projects, Leo has organized events to raise money for environmental protection. Just last summer, he hosted a gala that raised $40 million – and boasted a guest list full of A-list celebrities.Pinterest12/12Want more Teen Vogue?Like us on Facebook to stay in the know!

Bison and bacon are two hearty, big meats, so you need a big red to match. Northern Rhone Syrah packs a bold, peppery punch and often even smells like bacon!
A malty version of an English Pale Ale is perfect for meat-on-meat flavors.
Do you believe in luck?
1. Make Stock: Whisk together chicken stock concentrate and 3¾ cups hot water
2. Coarsely chop bacon.
3. Prepare Slow Cooker: Coat a 3- to 4-quart slow cooker with vegetable cooking spray. Add vegetables, chopped bacon, bison (DO NOT BREAK UP MEAT), crushed tomatoes, stock, garlic, ONLY ½ teaspoon rosemary, and ½ teaspoon each salt and pepper. Cover and cook on LOW setting 7 to 8 hours.
To Serve: Break up meat with a spoon. Ladle stew into bowls.
Use beer in place of 1¼ cups of stock for an even richer flavor.
Sure, our TK food containers are recyclable, but we'd rather you upcycle them first. We're partial to using them to sprout our garden seeds, but we'd love to see how creative you are! Tag us in your photos with @terraskitchen and #arecipeforreallife.

Horses have been on our minds even more than usual lately here in Woodside, with the Day of the Horse just recently past. We tip our riding helmet to a Woodside resident with an impressive equestrian record! Fans of horse racing have heard the name of Russell Baze, the winningest jockey alive. But did you know he's a longtime resident of Woodside?
Born to American parents in Vancouver, his father was competing in a horse race around the time of his birth. Russell has lived in our Town for twenty years with his wife and four children.
At 53, Russell has won almost 11,400 races in his more than 35 years in racing horses. According to the Fresno Bee, his first win was on a horse trained by his own father, Joe, and he continues to win to this day. He's been known to ride six or seven races in a day.
Baze achieved 10,000 wins in February 2008 and 11,000 in August 2010. At the time we checked his statistics for this story, he had placed first 11,379 times, second 8,552 times, and third 7,050 times, out of an absolutely incredible 48,553 starts. Over the years he's won more than $175 million in prize money. See Wikipedia here.
Not only has he won victories on the track, he has been honored by his peers for the incredible efforts he's shown over the years. He has been inducted into the U.S. Racing Hall of Fame, and been honored with multiple racing titles from Golden Gate Fields and the now-shuttered Bay Meadows. In addition, he's won the George Woolf Memorial Jockey Award, presented by jockeys to jockeys, and the Isaac Murphy Award, given by the National Turf Writers Association. He has won that award, for the jockey with the highest win percentage in a year, 13 times.
We're glad that Russell Baze is showing no signs of slowing down, despite the broken neck, back, and pelvis he's endured over the years, and despite competing against jockeys twenty and more years younger than he. The Fresno Bee quotes him as saying, "I love my job. Why would you want to quit with a job like this? I feel sorry for the guy who has to work behind a desk every day." He plans on racing at least until he achieves 12,000 wins, and who knows beyond that. All we know is as long as keeps racing, we'll keep cheering!

Langley leads by one at Travelers
Send a link to a friend
[June 21, 2014]
(Reuters) - Scott Langley, in his
second year on the PGA Tour, shot a five-under-par 65 to take the
halfway lead at the Travelers Championship in Connecticut on Friday.
The left-hander overcame a double bogey to post an 11-under 129
total, one stroke ahead of fellow Americans Harris English and

after the second round.
Putnam's 63 was the best round of the day at the TPC River Highlands
in Cromwell, which has hosted the PGA Tour event formerly known as
the Greater Hartford Open since 1984.
Langley is determined to avoid a repeat of his final round meltdown
less than three weeks ago at the Memorial tournament, where he shot
a closing 79 after starting the day in second place.
"There was a lot going on (at the Memorial) and I probably didn't
handle it as well as I could have but I learned a lot from it," the
25-year-old told PGATour.com.
"Going into this weekend, I'm not going to talk about what it would
mean to win. I need to keep my head down and just play golf."
Langley reeled off eight birdies, a bogey and a double bogey in
ideal morning conditions.
"I really only made one mistake," he said, referring to his double
bogey at the par-four second, his 11th hole, where he took four
strokes from just off the green.

"My iron play has been really solid, giving myself a lot of short

Nine strokes separated the 77 players who made the cut. In an event
lacking much star power, a couple of proven winners were within
striking distance, notably Dustin Johnson, three strokes behind,
while Matt Kuchar trailed by four.

"Only through awareness, presence and action can architectural sensibility and spatial intelligence be unfolded and developed."
Image of the Vitruvian Man drawn by Leonardo da Vinci.
The interpretation of human body as it is related with our capacity for deception is an elemental understanding. Theoretically formulated most clearly in Vitruvius "Ten Books on Architecture" as a correspondence of measure between the body and architecture, this understanding reappeared as a major dimension of Renaissance art and thought.
Spaces of atmosphere are shaped through a bodily interaction with architecture. The atmosphere is therefore closely linked to a philosophy of phenomenology. Vitruvius noted that since the human body is the measure of architecture, it is also that which determines atmospheric qualities. Within my own proposed space I am re-evaluating the relation of human body and mind in the practice of design and architecture.
My architectural stimuli, includes the works of Tadao Ando, Le Corbusier, Oscar Niemeyer, Frank Lloyd Wright, Mies van der Rohe, Richard Meier and Alberto Campo Baeza. I am a huge admirer of the Antiquity as well as Renaissance and its genius artists such as Leonardo da Vinci.

I have a practical guide how to fix slow computers here
This is a classic example of why a laptop would become slow. When it happens, you see that the hard drive light is always on and if you open a lot of internet browser tabs it becomes slow beyond belief. What happens is the operating system tries to compensate for the shortage of memory by making a junk of a virtual memory on the hard drive. That's why the hard-drive light is always on.
Fixing this is actually very simple - we just need to upgrade the memory (RAM). Laptop memory is easy to access as it is usually located underneath the laptop.
Tell me about your problem by clicking here. I will reply in two hours with a solution.
Overheating laptop will slow down its processor. This will happen on almost all laptops with only a few exceptions. Why does this happen? Well, the processor or other electronic components can get damaged if they are on a thermal stress for a prolonged time. Actually, the components will most likely not get damaged, but they will de-solder themselves from the logic board.
Usually a laptop overheats when the processor fan becomes full of dust or the thermal paste that is between the processor heat sink and the processor dries out, preventing heat transfer from the processor to the heat sink.
How can you fix this? Usually we need to disassemble the laptop to get access to the heat sink, fan and the processor. On some laptops like on various Dells this is pretty easy. We need just to unscrew a few screws, take out the plastic cover, unscrew a few screws again and then take out the heat sink.
Yet again this is a classic example of why a laptop is slow even if it came from a shop just a few days ago. I do not know why manufacturers are still doing this, but on every laptop I buy I find tons of software that they think I'm going to need. However, it never gets used and it sits there taking up space and slowing the processor down. Sometimes it even interferes with my work.
This is why if I buy a new laptop it gets an operating system reinstallation immediately.
Some viruses perform hard-drive encryption while you work, like some ransomware, which will slow the laptop down.
This is also a very common problem on laptops, especially old ones. What happens is that the disk becomes unreadable in some areas and the laptop still tries to read the data unsuccessfully. What will happen if this starts is that you will see that some programs should not start or you cannot access some of your files.
Celeron processors from Intel are usually slow because they are cheaper and designed for budget laptops. They are usually good for office work like word processing and printing, but they can't handle media content or some websites. This is actually strange, but if you go to certain websites with heavy media content the Celeron processor would have a hard time showing you the content.
This can happen after an upgrade. For example, if you used Windows XP and upgraded it to Windows Vista you would notice how slow the laptop may become. You have here two options: get rid of Vista (the best way) or upgrade the memory to twice the size.
The only good thing about Windows Vista is that Windows 7 came along and replaced it. If you have Vista on your laptop I feel very sorry for you. Please upgrade it to Windows 7. I do not recommend upgrading it to Windows 8 or Windows 10 because they are a bit different. I have in mind here the user interface. You can run the same programs as on Windows 7, though. Also, there may be some drivers missing if your laptop is an older one.
In reality some laptop models are slower than other models. This is true for older laptops and new laptops that have a Celeron processor. I already have mentioned Celeron processors.
Laptops with old memory RAM, i.e. DDR1, will be significantly slower than their brothers with DDR2 memory. On the other hand there is a very small difference in laptop speed if it has DDR3 or DDR4 memory.
Laptops with DDR1 memory are now considered obsolete and you need to get another laptop.
Believe it or not, the charger can affect the performance of your laptop. It is something to do with the quality of power that the charger outputs. If it is not completely filtered and a flat 19 Volts nobody knows how the laptop will behave. Usually laptops have voltage regulators inside but some models do not have good filters with large capacitors. So, any voltage spikes, fluctuations etc. would actually slow down the system.
You can replace the charger just to make sure it does not make your laptop slow.
If your laptop is dusty it is most likely overheating. As mentioned above, laptops monitor system temperatures and if it gets too hot somewhere usually the processor will be slowing down. In some cases the laptop can even power down to prevent damage to electronic components.
Laptops can survive water damage like coffee or juice spillage. Often the only thing that will fail is the keyboard. However, sometimes some liquid reaches the logic board. If the person who repaired it did not clean the logic board properly then the logic board can get rusty because of the residue that has been left.
If you have a failing USB device that is attached to the laptop it can slow down the operating system. A classic example would be a hard drive that has bad sectors on the disk. If you try to copy files from it this will take ages to do. External hard drives, especially the bigger ones, are nothing more than a usual hard drive fitted into an external enclosure with a USB interface. And just as the enclosure can get faulty, so too can the hard drive.
If you have on the laptop a few programs installed like Adobe Photoshop I can guarantee your laptop will get slower. The thing is that almost all programs write data to the user folder. You can see that in AppData/Local/Temp, which is in your account folder and filled with strange folders and other mess. You can clean it up and make some space on your laptop by running disk cleanup; click start and type "cleanup", select temporary files and hit ok.
The same hard drive can make the computer slow. Hard drives on desktops work on the same principle as laptop hard drives. If they encounter data they are unable to read from the disk, the hard drive still tries to read it anyway. After dozens of attempts it marks it as not readable and moves along. So, the damaged hard drive will definitely make the desktop computer slow. What else can damage the hard drive? A faulty power supply can damage hard drives. This probably seems incredible, but I have seen some hard drives that have been damaged by faulty desktop computer power supplies.
This is how it happens. Every power supply has a bunch of big capacitors inside that help make 12 volts, which is flat and stabilized. If those capacitors dry out or something else happens to them they lose the capacity. As a result we get voltage spikes, fluctuations etc. that reach our hard drive. Laptop hard drives and also desktop hard drives do not have a circuit inside that can absorb those fluctuations. As a result what we get is damaged electronics inside the hard drive or damaged areas on the disk with unreadable data.
Desktops also use memory like laptops, only the modules are longer. They usually come in a variety of memory sizes and are made by many manufacturers. Today DDR1 memory is considered obsolete and if you have one in your computer it is time to upgrade the motherboard. Motherboards usually accept one type of memory, so you'll need to buy a new motherboard if you want to upgrade to a newer memory type.
I feel the power supply on a desktop computer is a bit overlooked. It is very important to have it working properly, otherwise we can get a damaged hard drive, processor or logic board.
How can you know if there may be a faulty power supply? Usually strange computer behavior like failing to start in the morning, slow performance, and randomly powering down can be a sign of a faulty power supply, or faulty capacitors in the power supply to be precise.
Most often if a capacitor is faulty you can see that the top of it is a little deformed. Sometimes some liquid starts to leak from it. However, sometimes it looks as normal but inside are dried-out electrolytes so it is like there is no capacitor at all.
What would the symptoms of this fault be? You would notice that the computer does not like heavy loads. Sometimes it can even power down if you play a game. Also, it would not start in the morning on the first time or it would not power on at all on a cold day.
USB ports are in general a bit fragile. Every USB port has four wires. Two are power and the other two in the middle are dedicated to data transfer. If for some reason these two in the middle deform or break we will get slow data transfer speeds, or may not even be recognized by the computer. This is a very common fault on USB flash drives. If the desktop computer USB port breaks it usually breaks completely, and you will probably find black plastic bits that came from the USB port. In this case it is better not to use this port and instead show it to a specialist. There is power going through this port and if it gets a shortage it can damage the power supply.
Sometimes you can visually identify a faulty motherboard that has faulty capacitors, faulty MOSFETs (black things with a burnt hole), burned Nvidia chips (yes, they get black and make a black spot on the motherboard) and other things that overheat and change their color to black. It is actually incredible that a motherboard today has thousands of elements and the failure rate is actually very low. In fact, computers' hard drives fail more frequently than the motherboard.
As on laptops, overheating is also a problem on desktop computers. There are a few places that you need to check. The first is the processor heat sink. This is usually a big metal piece that sits on the processor. It needs to be clean, have good thermal paste and have a good working fan. Usually desktop heat sinks are not designed to work without a fan. However, there are some computers that do not use fans at all but they cost more and are not designed for media work or gaming.

by D. Joyce-Ahearne
The boy would walk with the sun on his face and his shadow behind him
so that light and heat were his only concerns.
The sun would rise and he would rise to meet it.
He would cross land and sky and go anywhere if the sun went there first, heated invincible.
When it would begin to set, for a while he would walk with a falling sun.
But his courage would always fail with the failing light
and he would turn his back on what was to him a dying star.
He would find his shadow waiting for him
and the sun's heat on his back as he walked home.
Because he was afraid to walk home in the dark he never saw the sun set.
He would close the door on the last breath of day that always saw him home even after he had turned his back on it.
Then one day he decided that if the sun could walk him home he could do the same.
And so he did, down to the end of the night
where he saw that black is only the end of purples and reds
and darkness is only the ashes of light, and should be treated as such.
As he watched how the last flame of day licked the night
he walked the sun into black and found himself alone in the dark but not
He turned his back on the night and walked home.
He had seen the glory of the setting sun fade into darkness
and he knew he could do the same.

Pride of Pakistan-Mohsin Khan
by MairaS on December 26, 2010
in Sports in Pakistan
Mohsin Hasan Khan is an ex-cricketer from Pakistan who used to open the innings for Pakistan in the late 70s till the mid 80s.
Mohsin Khan made his ODI debut against West Indies at Albion and his test debut against England in 1978 at Karachi. Mohsin Khan is one of the few batsmen who could adapt well to the bouncy Australian pitches. His centuries at Adelaide (149) and Melbourne (153) in the 1983-84 series are ample proof. Even in England he scored a double century at Lords in 1982. An interesting record associated with Mohsin Khan is that he scored 101 runs from the required 135 runs in the 2nd innings of a test match against India. This remains the lowest team score featuring a century to date.
Mohsin Khan was a stylish batsman who scored a total of 2709 runs in the 48 matches he played. In the One Day Internationals his total score is 1877 from 75 appearances. He retired from cricket in 1986.
Mohsin Khan was appointed the chief selector of PCB in 2009-10. Mohsin Khan left cricket to opt for a career in movies. He acted in a few movies in India and later worked in Pakistan. However, in last few years he has been associated with Pakistan Cricket Board in various capacities.

Any good tips for actual wilderness multi-day hikes with camping within range of a bus/train from Adelaide?
I got all excited seeing the routes through the hills like Yurrebilla, Lavender and Heysen, but looks like there's no camping on either through the Lofty ranges, plus the wilds are interrupted by quite a lot of on-road and farmland stretches. Plus I get the sense a lot of the Heysen campsites cater for the drive-up-for-the-night-and-play-loud-music 4wd crowd. 1200km continuous bushwalk trail pig's *&%$#!.
There are good day walks around places like Belair and Cleland that I've stomped around, but I really want to spend several nights in a tent (say 3-7 or more). Stealth camping doesn't have that much appeal, as I like a proper composting toilet and preferably water. Digging a hole is dicey at best, and pissing off the ranger isn't my cup of tea.
Research so far is pointing me a bit further afield like the bottom end of the Heysen around the cape, up around Flinders (which looks *&%$#! spectactular) or maybe KI or the Investigator trail out of Lincoln.

Some strength athletes are convinced that they react badly to creatine. They fall ill more quickly when they use the most researched and most effective supplement to hit the market in the last twenty years. Are they imagining this? Perhaps not, cell studies done by immunologists at Creighton University suggest.
Toll-like receptors [TLRs] were the focus of the researchers' study, the results of which will be published soon in International Immunopharmacology. TLRs are receptors on the membrane of immune cells, which are capable of recognising pathogens. TLRs play an important role in the non-learning part of our immune system that we are born with, and they roll into action immediately when they discover pathogens or faulty substances produced by the body itself. This part of the immune system is also called the body's natural resistance.
Back in the seventies, researchers discovered that creatine has an anti-inflammatory effect.[Arch Int Pharmacodyn Ther. 1978 Feb; 231(2): 340-50.] The effect is so strong that researchers even attributed painkilling effect to creatine. If it weren't for the fact that creatine has been so well studied, you'd be forgiven for wondering whether the extra reps you manage on creatine were the result of its painkilling properties.
Because inflammation is closely bound up with the immune system, the immunologists at Creighton were curious to know whether creatine and its analogues have an effect on the immune system. They extracted macrophages from mice and exposed these in test tubes to creatine, creatinine and creatine ethyl ester. Macrophages are immune cells that fall under the natural resistance department. They literally gobble intruders up.
When the researchers added creatyl [CEE], creatine [CR] and creatinine [CRN] to the cells and waited 60 minutes, the production of the RNA for the TLRs decreased. The figure below shows the effect of the three analogues on the RNA for TLR-4. These are the instructions from the genetic material in the cells to make more TLR-4. At twenty and thirty minutes after being added, creatine ethyl ester boosts production, but this effect has worn off after 60 minutes.
The photos above show the cells where the TLRs have been made visible using dye. This was done 24 hours after exposure to creatinine, the waste product of creatine and creatine ethyl ester.
TLR-2 is a receptor through which macrophages recognise bacteria, viruses and fungi; TLR-3 is involved in protecting blood vessels against hardening; TLR-4 stimulates pain and inflammation processes and TLR-7 recognises the genetic material of viruses.
The researchers repeated their experiments with cells from mouse spleens, and obtained the same results. The spleen is the equivalent of the immune cells' barracks.
Three hours after a load of creatine molecules have entered your blood, half of them have already been converted into creatinine. It's not so much creatine users' creatine level but their creatinine level that is probably raised the whole day – certainly if they take several doses a day.
"It is tempting to speculate that the extended elevation in creatine levels in vivo negatively impacts the host's ability to respond to infections", the researchers write. "Future studies in the laboratory will focus on the impact of CR, CRN, and CEE in animal models of viral and bacterial infections."
Future studies. Aha. We'll be watching out for these.

Health Benefits of Baby & Mother
Breastfeeding decreases the risk of a number of diseases in both mothers and babies. The US Preventive Services Task Force recommends efforts to promote breastfeeding.
Early breastfeeding is associated with fewer nighttime feeding problems. Early skin-to-skin contact between mother and baby improves breastfeeding outcomes, increases cardio-respiratory stability and decreases infant crying. Reviews from 2007 found numerous benefits. Breastfeeding aids general health, growth and development in the infant. Infants who are not breastfed are at mildly increased risk of developing acute and chronic diseases, including lower respiratory infection, ear infections, bacteremia, bacterial meningitis, botulism, urinary tract infection and necrotizing enterocolitis.Breastfeeding may protect against sudden infant death syndrome, insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, lymphoma, allergic diseases, digestive diseases and may enhance cognitive development.
The average breastfed baby doubles its birth weight in 5 to 6 months. By one year, a typical breastfed baby weighs about 2½ times its birth weight. At one year, breastfed babies tend to be leaner than formula-fed babies, which improves long-run health.
The Davis Area Research on Lactation, Infant Nutrition and Growth (DARLING) study reported that breastfed and formula-fed groups had similar weight gain during the first 3 months, but the breastfed babies began to drop below the median beginning at 6 to 8 months and were significantly lower weight than the formula-fed group between 6 and 18 months. Length gain and head circumference values were similar between groups, suggesting that the breastfed babies were leaner.
Breast milk contains several anti-infective factors such as bile salt stimulated lipase (protecting against amoebic infections) and lactoferrin (which binds to iron and inhibits the growth of intestinal bacteria).
Infants who are exclusively breastfed for the first six months are less likely to die of gastrointestinal infections than infants who switched from exclusive to partial breastfeeding at three to four months.
During breastfeeding, approximately 0.25–0.5 grams per day of secretory IgA antibodies pass to the baby via milk.This is one of the important features of colostrum. The main target for these antibodies are probably microorganisms in the baby's intestine. The rest of the body displays some uptake of IgA, but this amount is relatively small.
Maternal vaccinations while breastfeeding is safe for almost all vaccines. Additionally, the mother's immunity obtained by vaccination against tetanus, diphtheria, whooping cough and influenza can protect the baby from these diseases, and breastfeeding can reduce fever rate after infant immunization. However, smallpox and yellow fever vaccines increase the risk of infants developing vaccinia and encephalitis.
Babies who are not breastfed are almost six times more likely to die by the age of one month than those who receive at least some breast milk.
Infants exclusively breastfed have less chance of developing diabetes mellitus type 1 than those with a shorter duration of breastfeeding. Breastfed infants appear to have a lower likelihood of developing diabetes mellitus type 2 later in life.Breastfeeding is also associated with a lower risk of type 2 diabetes among mothers who practice it.
Childhood obesity
The protective effect of breastfeeding against obesity is consistent, though small, across many studies. A 2013 longitudinal study reported less obesity at ages two and four years among infants who were breastfed for at least four months.
Allergic diseases
In children who are at risk for developing allergic diseases (defined as at least one parent or sibling having atopy), atopic syndrome can be prevented or delayed through 4-month exclusive breastfeeding, though these benefits may not persist.
Other health effects
Breastfeeding may reduce the risk of necrotizing enterocolitis (NEC).
Breastfeeding or introduction of gluten while breastfeeding don't protect against celiac disease among at-risk children. Breast milk of healthy human mothers who eat gluten-containing foods presents high levels of non-degraded gliadin (the main gluten protein). Early introduction of traces of gluten in babies to potentially induce tolerance doesn't reduce the risk of developing celiac disease. Delaying the introduction of gluten does not prevent, but is associated with a delayed onset of the disease.
About 19% of leukemia cases may be prevented by breastfeeding for six months or longer.
Breastfeeding may decrease the risk of cardiovascular disease in later life, as indicated by lower cholesterol and C-reactive protein levels in breastfed adult women.Breastfed infants have somewhat lower blood pressure later in life, but it is unclear how much practical benefit this provides.
A 1998 study suggested that breastfed babies have a better chance of good dental health than formula-fed infants because of the developmental effects of breastfeeding on the oral cavity and airway. It was thought that with fewer malocclusions, breastfed children may have a reduced need for orthodontic intervention. The report suggested that children with a well rounded, "U-shaped" dental arch, which is found more commonly in breastfed children, may have fewer problems with snoring and sleep apnea in later life. A 2016 review found that breastfeeding protected against malocclusions.
It is unclear whether breastfeeding improves intelligence later in life. Several studies found no relationship after controlling for confounding factors like maternal intelligence (smarter mothers were more likely to breastfeed their babies). However, other studies concluded that breastfeeding was associated with increased cognitive development in childhood, although the cause may be increased mother–child interaction rather than nutrition.
Breastfeeding aids maternal physical and emotional health. Breastfeeding and depression in the mother are associated. Mothers who successfully breastfeed are less likely to develop postpartum depression.
Maternal bond
Hormones released during breastfeeding help to strengthen the maternal bond.Teaching partners how to manage common difficulties is associated with higher breastfeeding rates. Support for a breastfeeding mother can strengthen familial bonds and help build a paternal bond.
Exclusive breastfeeding usually delays the return of fertility through lactational amenorrhea, although it does not provide reliable birth control. Breastfeeding may delay the return to fertility for some women by suppressing ovulation. Mothers may not ovulate, or have regular periods, during the entire lactation period. The non-ovulating period varies by individual. This has been used as natural contraception, with greater than 98% effectiveness during the first six months after birth if specific nursing behaviors are followed.
Breastfeeding releases beneficial hormones into the mother's body.Oxytocin and prolactin hormones relax the mother and increase her nurturing response.This hormone release can help to enable sleep. Breastfeeding soon after birth increases the mother's oxytocin levels, making her uterus contract more quickly and reducing bleeding. Pitocin, a synthetic hormone used to make the uterus contract during and after labour, is structurally modelled on oxytocin. Syntocinon, another synthetic oxytocic, is commonly used in Australia and the UK rather than Pitocin.
Weight loss
It is unclear whether breastfeeding causes mothers to lose weight after giving birth.
Reduced cancer risk
For breastfeeding women, long-term health benefits include reduced risk of breast cancer, ovarian cancer, and endometrial cancer.

The World's First Financial Data Feed With No Redistribution Fees
With the unveiling of a new pricing model, Intrinio has not just opened a new door for app developers - we've knocked down the walls of an old system that left them paying steep fees for the ability to feed data into their creations.
App developers and investors alike have historically been charged outrageous fees for access to financial data. At Intrinio, we believe this access should be affordable and accessible to everyone - especially those who are turning that data around and creating valuable innovations. Our new pricing model is architected ideally for startups and developers. You only pay for the data you use. This means that we're only successful if you and whatever you are building is.
Let's grow together.
We've completely done away with redistribution pricing. It doesn't matter to us if you show off our data, and we want to support your products and innovations without breaking your bank. App developers pay the same price as regular/individual users or financial professionals. For the first time ever, integrate and display financial data wherever, and however you want. We're here to eliminate your roadblocks.
Build without restrictions.
Our REST API is built with a flexible user interface that allows you to manage an unlimited amount of collaborators from one account. Have a team of 10 app developers? Add them as collaborators, manage their usage from your admin dashboard, and all of their API calls are logged to your main account. You'll only be charged for the data your team uses.
Support your team.
Get started for free today by visiting www.intrinio.com. Register with your email, visit our pricing page, and check out our documentation or Youtube videos for help getting started. We're always available via our Support Page if you need help.

text: Share: Comments Print July 3, 2013 at 9:57 AM We'll do fine without the Coyotes Posted by Jon Talton The City Council vote in Glendale, Ariz, last night to keep the Phoenix Coyotes in this suburban venue is no tragedy for Seattle. We were being used as a pawn, with a shaky proto-proposal by a group of little-known "investors." This was nothing like the great deal promised by Chris Hansen to return the Sonics. The same can't be said for Glendale, which went deeply into debt to lure the NHL team from downtown Phoenix in 2003 and has been digging the hole deeper ever since. What passes for economic development in metro Phoenix is the suburbs stealing assets from the city, spec development for back-office operations and house building, also mostly in the suburbs. Plus tourism and retirement. The result is the lowest wages and weakest performance for a metro area this size (larger than metro Seattle). There are no major headquarters. There is the whiff of extremism and bigotry from SB 1070 and Sheriff Joe Arpaio's thug tactics, guaranteeing that the region has a tough time luring young talent. Even if Glendale changes the name to the Arizona Coyotes, it's an open question as to whether metropolitan Phoenix has the disposable income to support four big-league teams. Seattle has no such constraints, being one of the richest major metros with plenty of well-paying jobs. Although the loss of the (first) Sonics was painful, it showed us as the first city willing to say no to the endless demands of team owners for new and better arenas. The Hansen deal showed we can do better, and one can hope under a new NBA commissioner we will reclaim our team. If the NHL never comes, we'll do fine. Have a happy Independence Day.

New York—Well it looks like Ron Johnson, the disgraced former chief executive at JCPenney, is no longer the retail industry's biggest pariah.
That distinction is now resolutely held by soon-to-be ex CEO Dov Charney of American Apparel. Over the last decade, Charney has been the subject of rumor, innuendo and hard facts regarding sexually inappropriate conduct.
It is precisely that sleazy behavior that prompted the retailer's board to fire Charney. His ouster "grew out of an ongoing investigation into alleged misconduct. The board felt it was the right thing to do Dov Charney created American Apparel, but the company has grown much larger than any one individual and we are confident that its greatest days are still ahead."
One has to wonder what took them so long. In addition to numerous lawsuits, 10 years ago Charney actually had an employee come in and perform oral sex on him during an interview with Jane reporter Claudine Ko. "Apparently that wasn't weird enough to satisfy him, so he later masturbated in front of her while she tried to interview him."
Reports are his conduct with young women has become legendary.
Another faction not sorry to see Charney depart? Wall Street, where analysts greeted the news of his departure with glee, sending the price of the company's shares up.
Charney isn't the only retail store this week about being naughty. A New York judge ruled this week that JCPenney did indeed interfere with Macy's exclusive arrangement with Martha Stewart.

text: We are holding tight to our girls today here in Colorado. The three of them are getting extra hugs and lots of kisses. Messes don't seem to bother us; the continuous flood of creative projects falls where it will. The house is disorganized, a little out of place. But there is life, glorious and dirty; endless and finite in our home today. Our hearts grieve for what was lost. And we hold tight to what is here.

We love the delicate colour palette of these new fabrics from the Blue Barn collection by Laundry Basket Quilts for Moda. Inspired by the designer coming across a blue barn on a snowy winter's evening, the colours include the blues and greys of the building contrasting with the creams of the snow and landscape, and the prints include a variety of florals and blenders. It's rare a floral range is perfectly suited for winter, but this range is ideal for warming winter quilts and accessories!
Also, briefly, we have finally managed to source a new, small rotating rotary cutting mat with imperial markings. From Fiskars, this 14 inch square self healing mat is perfect for squaring off blocks and cutting intricate applique shapes, and is small enough to take to class!

Rotary cutting method for pineapple quilt block - tutorial
Many people like to construct the pineapple block using foundation paper piecing, however if (like me) you're not keen on copying out the foundation patterns, you can make the block using a rotary cutting method. We have a free pattern on the website using a pineapple block, this method is used in the pattern and I've reproduced it below.
a) Cut a 4.75" square of fabric for the centre of the block. Cut a 2" WOF (width of fabric) strip of your next fabric, and cut off 4 lengths at 4.75" each. Stitch two of the strips to opposite sides of the square, then press (always press the seams towards the outer strips). Stitch the other two strips to the remaining two opposite sides and press (figure 1).
Figure 1
b) Using a quilting ruler with 45 degree angles marked, line up the 45 degree line with one of the seam lines and trim off the corners of the strips, leaving 0.25" of fabric at the corner. Repeat by rotating the ruler for each corner. (figure 2).
Figure 2
c) Cut a 2" WOF strip of your next fabric and from it cut 4 pieces approximately 1/2" longer than the trimmed edges of the previous strips. Stitch these strips to the 4 sides as in step a and press (figure 3).
Figure 3
d) Trim the end corners of the strips to line up with the short outer length of the fabrics in the previous round - use the lines on the ruler to ensure the cut edges are parallel with the seams of the centre block (figure 4 & 5).
Figure 4
Figure 5
e) Continue in this way for the next 3 rounds, ensuring at every stage that the seams are parallel and the outer edges square.
f) For the large corner pieces, cut a 4" WOF strip of your final fabric. To save fabric, instead of cutting a strip, cut a triangle with its base at about 1" wider than the cut edges of the previous round instead (figure 6). Sew one triangle on to each corner.
Figure 6
g) Use the ruler to square up the block. Ensure all blocks are exactly the same size, trim where necessary using your rotary cutting mat as a guide. The finished blocks should measure approximately 13.75" square. See figure 7 for an image of the finished block.
Figure 7
h) You can alter the sizes given in this tutorial to make blocks of any size, and you can do as many rounds as you'd like - thin strips and many rounds make a really impressive looking block! This block uses prints from a single collection to coordinate, however a more striking effect can be achieved by alternating dark and light fabrics in each successive round.
Hope this is useful!

This is: A Natural Fascination
With spring in full swing, our senses are tuned into all things natural. In New York City we ventured to the Museum of Arts and Design to see an enlightening exhibition, Dead or Alive: Nature Becomes Art. We were fascinated by how the artists transformed organic materials into weird and wonderful works of art.
Closer to home we love the simplicity of Peter McLean's work. The image above is a relief print of a cross section of a Casuarina seed pod on a Japanese Kozo paper. We're also currently marvelling at Hossein Valamanesh's delicate works which can be seen at Grant Pirrie Gallery.

More than meets the eye
One of our favourite haunts is Ariel Books in Paddington. Aside from offering a dazzling array of sumptuous new books, they also host a informative website featuring book reviews written by their staff. We love reading the reviews to get an insight into what book lovers love. There's more to love with welcoming glasses of wine offered on special nights, book launches, kids readings and an amazing gift wrapping service. One last temptation, a massive Haigh's chocolate frog on the way out.

We're dreaming...
...that we could experience London Design Festival's 2010 program which is bursting with interesting projects and events including Outrace. London's Trafalgar Square will be transformed into an open air production line created by designers Clemens Weisshaar and Reed Kraman. Outrace will hand control of eight industrial robots (on loan from Audi's production line) fitted with LED light to the general public. Visitors and web browsers will be able to interact with the machines writing messages into the air which will be captured by HD cameras and uploaded to a specially commissioned website.
And while we were there, we'd be sure to visit the Serpentine Gallery Pavilion by Jean Nouvel and wander, awe-inspired around Fiona Banner's exhibition at the Tate Britain.

This is: Spring
It's not just us who is excited about Spring. We've noticed a number of others who are embracing the season and enticing us to get out of the house. The Sydney Opera House has already leapt into action with its Spring Dance 2010 series, presenting a diverse range of performances including Sutra (pictured). Also worth exploring is Object Gallery's vibrant Spring program which takes in typography, sound, good old-fashioned craft and Sydney's a turn at Parking Day.

This is: Double Take
We're always fascinated by what the eye sees and what our imaginations envisage, an idea we've played with on our website splash pages. Mirrored images, inkblots and rorschach tests create optical effects that give the impression that something unexpected my lay waiting in the depths of the image. Walking past Josh Goot's Paddington store we think he may have been similarly inspired. What do you think?
