Turkey, Spinach and Apple Wrap
Recipe reprinted with permission from the American Institute for Cancer Research
- 1 tablespoon reduced-fat mayonnaise
- 2 teaspoons honey mustard
- 2 whole-wheat lavash wraps or flour tortillas (8 inches each)
- 2 cups baby spinach leaves, loosely packed, washed and dried
- 4 thin slices turkey breast
- 1/4 Granny Smith apple, sliced paper-thin
- Combine mayonnaise and mustard. Lay out both wraps. Spread edges of each with mayonnaise mixture.
- Leaving space on one side of wraps, arrange layer of greens on top of wraps. Top each layer with two slices of turkey. Evenly divide apple slices and lay lengthwise across turkey. Fold over one end of wrap then both sides. Roll wrap as tightly as possible toward opposite side.
- Cover each wrap tightly in plastic wrap and refrigerate seam-side down, up to 4 hours, before serving. To serve, remove plastic wrap and cut each wrap in half at an angle.
Substitution: Two large leaves of soft, leafy green lettuce can be used in place of baby spinach leaves.
Greens and Grains
Dedicating more of your plate to fresh-from-the-garden produce as well as rice and grains can lead to a healthier lifestyle, according to Cheryl Forberg, registered dietitian and award-winning chef and nutritionist for "The Biggest Loser."
To start living healthier and greener lives, Forberg recommends starting a garden. This hands-on approach is a fun way to learn about nutrition and where food comes from. Following produce from seed to plate can compel you to eat more healthfully.
Forberg furthers her personal dedication to the seed- to-plate journey through her involvement with Seeds of Change, which invests in healthier and greener communities by offering both organic seeds and foods, and delivers an annual grant program that benefits school and community gardening as well as farming programs. This year, the grant program will award $310,000 to participants who plan to help their communities and teach people about sustainability and where fresh food comes from.

Step It Up
Put a fresh take on post-holiday sandwiches
(Family Features) For most people, the day after a big holiday gathering means two things: a refrigerator filled with opportunity and a marked lack of energy.

Sandwiches are a natural solution for post-holiday noshing, but all those exceptional entrees practically beg for one last chance to shine.

Summer BBQ - German-Style
Spätzle Salad With Grilled Vegetables
Grilled Peaches and Lemon Loaf
Sauerkraut Turkey Burgers With Emmentaler and Mustard Sauce
(Family Features) - Hot dogs, hamburgers, sausages and mustard - it's easy to forget that these "all-American" barbecue staples we crave this time of year originally came from Germany.
These traditional foods are delectable. But why not try some über-tasty, new German barbecue recipes? Each recipe uses typical German ingredients that are readily available and each is healthier than you might think.
All of these recipes use heart-healthy canola oil, which has the lowest saturated fat of all popular vegetable oils, is high in vitamin E, and is a good plant source of omega-3 fatty acids. With its light flavor, canola oil allows the summer vegetables and juicy grilled peaches to shine.
Visit www.germanfoods.org to find a local or online retailer of authentic German foods and beverages for barbecues, such as bratwurst, sauerkraut, rolls, mustards, pickles, cheeses and mineral water. Visit www.canolainfo.org for more tips on healthy summer barbecuing.
Tips for Safe Grilling
Eighty-four percent of gas grill owners say it is important to follow basic safe grilling tips when using a gas grill, however, only about one in three (35 percent) say they know a great deal about gas grills, according to the Propane Education & Research Council. To help the 74 million barbecue households in the United States enjoy a safe and healthy summer season, the propane industry has developed its top 10 tips for grilling safely with propane gas:
- When the cylinder is refilled, have the supplier check for dents, damage, rust or leaks.
- After filling or exchanging the cylinder, take it home immediately. Keep the vehicle ventilated and the cylinder valve closed and capped.
- Always use or store cylinders outdoors in an upright (vertical) position. Do not use, store or transport cylinders near high temperatures (this includes storing spare cylinders near the grill).
- Never leave the grill unattended. Always follow grill manufacturer's instructions for lighting the grill and make sure the grill top is open when attempting to light the grill.
- Before connecting the cylinder to a propane gas grill burner for the first time, use a leak-detection solution (a 50/50 mixture of water and liquid soap) to check connections for tightness. Do not use matches or lighters to check for leaks.
- If you suspect a gas leak and are able to safely turn off the gas supply valve, do so immediately and call the fire department.
- Do not allow children to tamper or play with the cylinder or grill.
- Do not smoke while handling a propane cylinder.
- Never pour an accelerant such as lighter fluid or gasoline on the grill.
- When not in use, turn off the grill's burner controls and close the cylinder valve.

2018 Community Showcase to feature area businesses
March 15, 2018
For nearly three decades, the Frankfort Community Showcase has given local businesses the chance to shine.
Now in its 34th year, the family-friendly event plans to feature more than 100 Frankfort businesses in addition to activities for children, live performances and more. The 2018 showcase
is scheduled for 10 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturday, March 17, at the Lincoln-Way East High School Field House.
"We have everything from Home Depot and Kidswork to insurance, realtors, deck cleaning, awning, the library, the park district—and everything in between,"
said Alicia Bermes, executive director of the Frankfort Chamber of Commerce.
The event will include a "Taste of Showcase" offering guests the chance to purchase and sample from five local restaurants: Nothing Bundt Cake, Sweet Frog, Bear Down BBQ, Dancing
Marlin and Palermo's Pizza. There will also be performances and demonstrations from groups including the "On Pointe" dance troupe, the Youth String Orchestra, Down Home Guitars and the
Lincoln-Way East musical "The Hunchback of Notre Dame."
Brett Schaibley of Edward Jones, the showcase chair, said he's most looking forward to seeing new businesses participate in the event.
"We're giving them exposure to 1,500 to 2,000 attendees who attended last year and then growing that again this year — getting the local businesses in the community to consumers
in the area," he said.

The Dark Dark
The Dark Dark, contains finely written prose structured into well-told stories. Sometimes funny, other times scary, there's always a twist or a stretch of imagination at play. In some stories, it seemed like the shadows had shadows as Hunt built complexity into this efficient form. Any reader comfortable with some weird stuff will enjoy the stories in this finely written collection. Rating: Four-star (I like it) Click here to purchase The Dark Dark from amazon.com.

If you run a business that sells digital products, you should probably be taking part in Black Friday and Cyber Monday. Consumers are in the right mindset and actively looking for deals. If you've never put your products on sale during this period, you're missing out.
Last year we launched Squash 2 around the time of Black Friday, and while the sales were good, I look back now and think it was probably a mistake. I should have gone with a more general sale for all of Realmac's products, so with that in mind, that's exactly what I decided to do this year.
I wanted the deal to be fairly decent, so I went with 50% off everything in the Realmac store via a coupon code. I know from experience if the deal isn't good enough, customers will just pass on it. If I went much higher than 50%, I knew I'd be leaving a lot of potential revenue on the table. Anything between 40-60% off seems like a safe bet.
Paddle (our payment provider) has a handy feature that allows you to append parameters to the end of a URL. This allowed me to make sure the coupon code got automatically applied when the user clicked the promo link in the email. This was an essential aspect in offering the deal as it lowered the friction for users making a purchase. It also avoids typos and support emails about where to enter the coupon.
Press & Marketing Emails
I emailed 30 or so press contacts a few days before the campaign was due to start. I chose to spend some extra time customizing each email, as opposed to sending a bulk email using MailChimp. Unsurprisingly, I always find sending personal emails helps build better relationships and results in better press coverage.
Here's the basic outline I used when emailing the press:
Spending the extra time to email the press seemed to work nicely as the offer got listed on some popular sites, including MacStories, MacRumors, and designernews.co, together those websites drove a few thousand extra hits to the Realmac Store.
A lot of marketing is the same, everything from launching a new product to running a discount sale. You need a strong pitch, and a way to reach as many people as possible. As with all marketing campaigns, every bit of exposure you can get counts.
Paddle had approached us a few weeks before Black Friday and asked if we were doing any deals as they were planning an email campaign of their own to around 100K Mac users. I jumped at the chance, being able to reach another group of users would undoubtedly help.
I put together four separate promotional emails and scheduled them to go out over the space of five days. Here are the headlines for all the emails that went out during that time, including the one from Paddle:
- 🔥 Black Friday — Save 50% on everything! (Thursday)
- ⚡ Black Friday: Time is running out to save 50% (Friday)
- On Black Friday, 50% off iOS books, Rapidweaver and more (Friday / Paddle)
- 🤖 Cyber Monday Deal — Save $300 on the Ultimate RapidWeaver Training Bundle! (Sunday)
- 😱 Sale Ends Today — Hurry! (Monday)
As the Realmac mailing list is also over 100K users, it means more than half-a-million emails got sent. Yikes!
I know it's a reasonably aggressive email campaign, but the Cyber Monday Deal was a different email based on our RapidWeaver Training Course. I also customised the headline and body copy for each of the Black Friday emails to make it clear where in the deal we were.
It's a hard balance to get right. The campaign was definitely on the upper end of the spectrum as to what users would tolerate, but as you'll see from the sales graph, every time we sent an email the revenue went up.
Interestingly Monday produced our most significant day of sales. I think this was due to the Cyber Monday email, and it also being the last day to get a discount on the Black Friday deal. It could also have been because everyone was back to work on Monday and catching up on email.
I tweeted about both deals a fair amount over the same period, but from looking at our web stats, it appears they sent very little traffic to the store.
Revenue & Numbers
Realmac turned over $50,000 during this sale period. I was surprised by this, mainly because RapidWeaver 7 was released around 18 months ago (Psst. RW8 is due in 2018). Had I had a much newer product to offer, I believe the sales could have been double what they were.
I've included some graphs below showing direct sales revenue, email campaign details (for Black Friday), and website traffic for November.
- Total revenue for the five day sale period was $51,676.85
- Saturday 25th was our lowest day of sales at $4,188 (no emails sent)
- Cyber Monday (27th) was the highest day of sales at $15,988
- The BlackFriday and CyberMonday coupons were used over 1,300 times
- Email open rate was between 43.6% and 47.4% (above average for the industry)
Final Thoughts
I've talked about this for years, but a good mailing list is far too important to ignore. You can tweet and post to Facebook all you want, but from my experience email always wins. I'm not saying social networks are useless because they aren't, but I believe that if you put more time and energy into growing an email list, it will serve you better in the future, time and time again.
I'm happy with the way the campaign turned out; it goes to show the importance of app marketing. I could have skipped Black Friday (as I'm not sure I agree with it, but that's a discussion for another time), but if I had, the company would be worse off. The more revenue we make, the longer I can ensure Realmac continues building and developing great software, and perhaps more importantly, support the people that work at Realmac.

Shell rings- bringing these bits of the sea to the Chautauqua Craft Show July 12-14.
My exploration of foliage continues. I have accentuated the negative space of the leaf in silver, abstracting and bejeweling the form. Tusk shell, freshwater pearl, moonstone, peridot, and aquamarine. Available here.
For years I have forged every sea creature imaginable out of metal. Every squid, blowfish, jellyfish, and octopus have been reimagined in my sketchbook and later created in silver and gold.
Lately, my surroundings have taken me in a different direction. Florida's subtropical landscape has seeped into my subconscious. I am surrounded by bananas, plumeria, succulents, mangoes, and palms. Lush foliage forms are starting to appear in my drawings and metalwork. It's an exciting time for me, I feel like I am on a new voyage of discovery, new forms and lines are springing from the end of my pencil.
I have to say, I'm looking forward to working in my studio today!

We almost lost our favorite show this year! After 38 years, the organizers of the Piccolo Spoleto Craft Show retired from running their event. Fortunately the Office of Cultural Affairs stepped in and the show will go on. The Piccolo Spoleto Crafts Exhibition will be held in Wragg Square Park once again, for four days over Memorial Day Weekend. Spread the word! We are looking forward to seeing you Friday May 25- Monday May 28 downtown in the churchyard. For more info visit piccolospoleto.com.
It's been a whirlwind couple of weeks. We just got back from the Main Street Fort Worth Art Festival, which was a great success! MSFW is a prestigious and highly competitive art festival to be invited to, and we can see why after our experience last week. The show was managed beautifully, and well attended by the people of Fort Worth who were very friendly and appreciated our work. We had an outstanding response to our jewelry and met many new collectors over the four day affair. Thanks, Fort Worth, we hope to get to come back and see you again soon! Love your fun town, fine restaurants, and great folks.
We have passed the center point of our run of 10 shows in a row- and I'm tired! Planning on getting a good night's sleep before we open up in Venice, FL for the 17th Annual Downtown Venice Art Classic. Venice Avenue is lined with great restaurants, which makes for a really great afternoon at the art show. We're going to have beautiful weather, so come out to see us if you're in the area!
Off to the Southernmost Point this weekend- we will be participating in the Old Island Days Art Festival in Key West once again. The Key West Art Center and Gallery hosts us on the streets of Old Town for this one of a kind event. We have lots of new work to share, and we will be sure to bring back lots of pictures of our favorite place!

EVANS, Ga. -- Sparked by top-five finishes from Holly Keeper and Claudia Nunez-Lopez, the Augusta State women's cross country squad took second place Saturday morning in the Peach Belt Conference Championships at Blanchard Woods Park. The championships are part of the weekend-long PBC Fall Festival.
The Lady Jaguars matched their best-ever finish in the PBC's, equaling their second-place showings in both 2007 and 2008. Keeper was third at 24:04, just ahead of teammate and fellow sophomore Claudia Nunez-Lopez at 24:06. Junior Lyndsey Nichols gave ASU three top-15 efforts, placing 14th with a time of 25:32.
Freshman Alicia Connolly (26:02) and junior Angela Woodward (26:07) assured the Lady Jags of five top-20 finishes when Connolly and Woodward took 18th and 19th place, respectively. Junior Savannah Sutton was 22nd with an effort of 26:25, while sophomore Ivori Sneed was 37th with a time of 27:36.
Columbus State won its sixth straight league title as all five runners scored in the top 10 on the 6k course. The six straight titles are one short of the PBC record of seven set by Kennesaw State from 1994-99. CSU's Brittany Skiles won the individual championship and broke the course record.
Skiles bested the 6k course standard by more than 30 seconds as she posted a time of 23:36, finishing ahead of teammate and defending PBC champion Naomi Tanui, who was second at 23:45,
The top seven runners in Saturday's race were named first-team All-Conference while the second seven were named to the second team (see list below).

The BEST Episodes of Big Brother
Every episode ever - ranked by fan votes!
Last Updated: Nov 2, 2019
Network: CBS
Big Brother, which began in 2000, has become an annual tradition for fans; every summer they are treated to new houseguests, new challenges, and new evictions! Here's how the game works: each week, there is a Head of Household challenge, where all of the players compete for the power in the house. The HoH then nominates two other houseguests for eviction. Several days later, a Power of Veto competition is held, where six players (the HoH, the nominees, and three guests) attempt to win the Golden Power of Veto, which gives the bearer the power to "veto," or cancel, one of the HoH's nominations, forcing the HoH to nominate someone else (other than the Veto bearer) for eviction. Then, in the weekly live eviction, the houseguests vote to send someone out of the house for good. Along the way are Luxury competitions and Food contests (which, if the houseguests do not win, results in Slop for the week), all leading up to the show's finale, where a panel of sequestered jurors vote for a winner, who receives half a million dollars!

In the Diary Room, Lisa says that when Eric left, part of her left as well, but importantly, a "new part emerged, a part that was ready to play." Danielle talks about how her alliance with Jason needed a third person to work, and that they originally wanted Marcellas, but that they adopted Lisa because Marcellas was too "unstable." As the game was winding down, Lisa says she "saved her strength" for a run to the finals, a run that will hopefully pay off soon.

Season 12: Episode 11: Rachel and Kristen Battle it out as the Game Gets Real Andrew's parting revelation that Kristen and Hayden are in a secret showmance reverberates through the house. On the outside Kristen is acting shocked, but in Diary Room she admits the worst thing she ever could have imagined has come out, and it has come out hard. Hayden is just as shocked -- he was cruising along with his secret alliance the Brigade, plus he had Kristen wrapped around his finger. What does he do now? During the live show, Hayden and Kristen lay into Andrew, telling him that they wouldn't be that stupid. "Why would I lie?" Andrew asks, remaining calm as Hayden and Kristen keep up their charade. Fellow nominee Kathy is loving it, but not as much as Rachel, who realizes this is a great thing for her and her showmance Brendon. And what's even better for Rachel's showmance? Winning Head of Household! "Floaters," Rachel says, "You better grab a life vest—Kristen!" Rachel then reveals she heard Hayden and Kristen making out last night. Brendon piles on, telling Hayden and Kristen that they are busted. Kristen lashes back, with Hayden backing her up. The insults fly, with Rachel and Kristen calling each other out on their intelligence. From the sidelines Ragan notes that he is not a religious person, but he has been praying for this moment to happen since he entered the house. Britney is also in hog heaven. "The irony that they were in a boxing ring was not lost on me," Britney says. The attention diverts briefly to Kathy, who hugs Kristen and Hayden as things begin to die down. Rachel is not happy—that kind of behavior shows Kathy is with Kristen and not her. "She is clearly telling me what side she is on," Rachel says in diary room. Things finally cool off to a point where Brendon can congratulate Rachel. Rachel breaks down, telling Brendon she is so tired of the house coming after them. In the palm bedroom, Enzo, Matt and Lane can't believe they have once again failed to win the HoH competition, only to be clocked by "Brachel." Enzo wants Kristen out this week so they can get Hayden back into the game as a Brigade member. Hayden decides to make nice with Rachel and apologizes for saying things in the heat of the moment. Rachel isn't buying it, and points out during the HoH competition Hayden put her and Brendon against each other. This is all damage control for Hayden, who talks down his showmance. Hayden goes to Kristen, who has curled up in the Cabana room. Rachel comes in, and calmly apologizes for what she said in the heat of the moment. Not only does Kristen reject the apology, but she also reaffirms her belief that Rachel was attacking her and throwing around lies. Rachel can't believe Kristen took her olive branch and threw it in her face. Hayden is reeling—what is Kristen thinking? Putting on a Good Show Hayden regroups with the Brigade, and lets them know he is still 100 percent aligned with them. Kristen is great, he tells Enzo and Lane, but if she has to go, she has to go. The conversation is cut short for Rachel's HoH suite reveal. Kristen opts not to take part, but Enzo and Britney both put on a great show of being interested. "Who wants to see your HoH room?" Britney says in mock excitement in the Diary Room. "Nobody! We'd rather hang ourselves! But who is most excited? Me!" Rachel comes out of the Diary Room dressed as a sexy cop, and orders everyone into the living room. The monitor comes on, and the HouseGuests are shocked to see Will Ferrell and Mark Wahlberg on the screen! They announce the winner of this week's luxury competition will get a special screening of their new buddy cop comedy, The Other Guys, which premieres August 6. The HouseGuests quickly break into teams of three and head outside, where the backyard has been turned into a huge urban street scene complete with crime scene tape and police cars, which sheriff Kathy notes is "her world." The first team—Lane, Matt and Britney—strap themselves into a huge plastic cop car and rush their way through the obstacle course, with Lane leading the way and Britney fighting to keep up. The second team, Kathy, Kristen and Ragan, struggle more, with Ragan noting that having Kathy on your team is nothing but dead weight! The third team, Enzo, Brendon and Hayden, plow through the course and dominate the luxury competition. Rachel announces that she will join the winning team for the screening of "The Other Guys." But the game quickly comes back into play, with Britney working Rachel as they share a bath together and Kathy making her way up to the HoH to make her case for why she should not be nominated this week. "What happens between you and Kristen," Kathy says, "That's something you need to settle." She notes she is not a threat and could be a reliable vote for Brendon or Rachel in the jury house. Hayden tries to get Kristen to go talk to the HoH, but Kristen resists. Kristen finally relents and makes her way up to the HoH suite, where she and Rachel once again get into it. Things stay mostly in control, with Kristen saying she never wanted to go after Brendon or Rachel. Brendon comes up and checks in with Rachel, who is now confused about who to nominate. Brendon can't believe Rachel is such a sucker for Kristen's emotional game. And the Nominees are… It's time for Rachel to make her nominations. Kathy is nervous about where she stands with the HoH, but when all the keys are pulled, Hayden and Kristen find themselves on the chopping block. "You're gunning for me and Brendon, so bring it on," Rachel warns. "Be careful what you wish for," Kristen says in Diary Room. Lane notes Hayden better not mess this up, while Brendon wonders why Rachel can't play nice. So who will win the Power of Veto, and will they save Hayden or Kristen from eviction. Find out Tuesday, August 3 at 8pm ET/PT on BIG BROTHER on CBS!

Season 12 - Episode 6
Season 12: Episode 06: A Veto Win Shakes up Rachel's Nominations Britney is upset that she is on the chopping block, while Monet thinks her nomination is due to Head of Household Rachel's jealousy of her. Hayden is delighted that his secret alliance, the Brigade, has once again escaped another nomination ceremony unscathed. Rachel feels fine with her nominations, because she knows neither Britney nor Monet has her back in the game. After the ceremony, Rachel's showmance Brendon hugs the HoH and tells her she did the right thing. Britney and Monet have a cry session in the Have Not bedroom, where they agree this was a personal move and not a strategic move. Monet thinks it is ridiculous that Rachel brought up her winning the $10,000 in the first HoH competition, and notes that she has never said anything bad to Rachel, before calling her a "stupid hooker." While the Brigade agrees they want the nominations to stay the same, a crying Britney goes up to the HoH suite to make her case. Rachel reveals she wants Monet gone this week, because Rachel sees her as a strong competitor. All of this emotion proves too much for Rachel, who later cries to Brendon about how she doesn't want people to feel badly. Brendon tells her this is a game, and notes in the Diary Room the two nominees are playing a very good emotional game right now. In the meantime Britney and Monet go from sad to angry when they spend an afternoon calling Rachel every name in the book—behind her back of course! Is there a Telethon for That? Matt has been telling all sorts of HouseGuests his wife has a rare bone disease and needs an expensive operation in order to save her leg. Matt has created this detailed lie based on a disease he learned about on a TV show, and reveals in Diary Room his wife is perfectly healthy. Ragan buys the lie, but another liar in the house knows Matt is scheming. Matt tells "shoe salesman" Andrew about his wife, but of course Andrew, who is hiding the fact he is a podiatrist, knows all about diseases. He smells a rat! Matt's tall tales have to wait until after the Veto competition. The six players are HoH Rachel, nominees Britney and Monet, plus Lane, Enzo and Brendon. The necktie-bedecked players come outside to see six stocks, with holes for their hands and head. Once they are locked up, each player is given a briefcase to hold. Veto host Ragan explains the player who holds his or her suitcase closest to one hour without going over wins the Power of Veto. It's a hot day, but Brendon and Monet try to count out the seconds, even as they get hit in the face repeatedly with a flapping dollar bill. Once everyone has dropped their suitcases, Lane, Brendon, Monet and Rachel are eliminated for going over one hour. Britney comes in at about 52 minutes. Enzo racks in at one hour and 14 seconds, but despite almost exactly hitting the bulls eye, Enzo has gone over. Britney wins! Britney still feels bad for Monet, but thinks they can convince Rachel to back door the house outcast Andrew. Monet makes her pitch, but Rachel isn't sure she can put up Andrew because Brendon sees him as their ally. Rachel, who doesn't want to make any more enemies, thinks this may be a way to make sure no one else will be mad at her and even make Monet and Britney allies. But when Rachel tells Brendon she is thinking of nominating Andrew, Brendon doesn't like the idea at all. Brendon doesn't trust Britney and Monet, and feels Andrew has their backs. Matt and Ragan go upstairs to talk to the HoH and Brendon, but when Rachel suggests Andrew as a pawn, Matt volunteers himself. Ragan thinks this is a foolish move, but Matt thinks taking one for the team will ensure that Monet goes home and will strengthen his relationship with the Brigade. Matt knows he is taking a "monster-sized" risk, but thinks it is worth it. Matt's offer only makes things more tense between Brendon and Rachel, with an irritated Brendon finally leaving the HoH suite. So what will Rachel do? Time for the Veto Ceremony! To no one's surprise, Britney uses the Veto on herself. Rachel nominates Matt, appeasing Brendon and disappointing Britney and Monet. Per Matt's request, Rachel says nominating Matt as a pawn was designed to ensure Monet's eviction. Andrew is thankful he made a blessing beforehand, while Matt sees the nomination as a way to build trust. Britney feels all her hard work was for nothing, but Monet notes she is not giving up. So who will be evicted? And who will be the next Head of Household? Find out this Thursday live at 8pm ET/PT on BIG BROTHER on CBS!

When a company sells t-shirts or other clothing, they not only bring in revenue but they also increase awareness of their brand. With about 62% of Americans owning more than 10 t-shirts, which amounts to about 1.5 billion shirts, companies need to ensure they're producing the best products possible. And while the shirt itself matters, companies often underestimate the importance of the label. Printed labels are generally the go-to option, but let's explore a few key benefits of using embroidered labels instead.
Higher quality: First and foremost, embroidered or woven labels are generally higher quality than printed labels. Because embroidered labels are sewn directly into clothing or products, they add more texture and feeling compared to printed labels. Additionally, woven labels won't fade or wear like printed labels, ensuring they'll last longer. Overall, embroidered labels can offer a high-quality option for displaying brand logos and information.
Simplicity: One of the best things about woven labels or even custom sew on patches is that the label itself can be a source of branding. This means that branding for your business can be simplified and consistent across all of your products. The artwork or logo representing the brand can speak for itself and be used over and over again. When it comes to easy branding options, embroidered labels are the way to go.
Customization: Custom woven labels are something that every business should invest in. Customization is key when it comes to finding opportunities for branding. And by being able to customize the label itself, companies increase their branding. While apparel itself can be customized for the brand, having labels or personalized woven patches can be used across several items and can be more versatile when needed. When businesses invest in custom woven label designs, they will have a consistent way to show their brand throughout all of their products.
As you can see, there are several benefits to using embroidered or woven labels for company products. From increasing the quality to being able to customize more, businesses can use these labels to benefit their company immensely. So if you're designing new apparel for your business, make sure to keep embroidered labels in mind.

We started a sandbox style game this weekend. I am having one of our players draw the maps as they encounter and explore them. As this is a full sandbox style game even I as the GM will be discovering what is where as we make the story up on the fly. To accomplish this goal I will be using a variety of random generators and dm books. I will be using the three environment books from 3.5, the game masters handbook from paizo, the gary gygax world builders book, and many online resources. This is only one square represented on an 8 1/2 x 11 inch grid paper. The kingdom of SouthRose is a small part of a much larger continent.

AFK Update
It has been a while since I have posted. In that time we have established a small farmstead and attended multiple game conventions.
We've been playing games at our new house this year. A lot of games. Now that things are settling in and we are getting back to normal I hope to post an update at least once a week.
We are currently finishing up a year-and-a-half campaign of Tyranny of Dragons. We are also playing Hells Vengeance and just wrapped up our Savage worlds Hell on Earth campaign. The Hell on Earth Campaign was largely a combination of Deathlands by James Axler and Vampire Earth.
The ToD group is having a blast with the castle exploration and not only have I been able to use a good deal of miniatures I have also used both Miniature Building Authority and Dwarven Forge terrain in their adventures.
On the miniatures front, ever since I came back from Rapier I've been in love with All Quiet on the Martian Front. I have hosted several games and have built a sizable collection of the miniatures. I highly recommend this system. There are many new planned factions now that Ironclad Games has purchased it from Alien Dungeon.
The game system, Warengine is one that many of you will remember me getting into five or six years ago. I recently ran a Starship Troopers game with the system and that got me back into both Starship Troopers and Warengine. If you aren't familiar with Warengine it's a fun generic system used for Shock Force. It's an easy build system that turns out to fairly balance the leaders to their troopers.
All is not quiet in the game design front. I am currently helping to develop several new game properties though I am not at liberty to disclose them.
Gamers Tavern has selected me to be the cohost of their podcast. I had an absolute blast sharing my gaming roots, gaming history, and gaming advice in our episode we recorded last night. We expect that the episodes will be ready within a few short weeks and then we plan on releasing an episode weekly. You can find them online at Gamerstavern.org.
Enjoy the gaming photos
