Consistently taking good care of dental implants is important for long-term success. With proper oral care and professional maintenance, implant-supported teeth can last for many years without any problems.
Nowadays, there are various types of dental implants in Leeds and some of them may require a different home care routine. Experienced dentists such as Enhancedental will offer targeted advice and propose a range of cleaning products to make oral hygiene with dental implants in Leeds a breeze.
When looking at home care instructions for dental implants, it is important to have in mind that dental implants require the same amount of care as regular teeth. Keeping the tissue and implant connections clean is vital for the proper function and longevity of dental implants. Unlike natural teeth, dental implants cannot develop cavities on their surface. However, they are prone to peri-implantitis, which is basically a type of gum disease for dental implants. Peri-implantitis can loosen the connection between the tissue and the dental implants leading to premature implant failure. Peri-implantitis can be caused by poor oral hygiene or inflammation.
Caring for dental implants at home
Patients with dental implants should clean their teeth at least twice a day with a soft toothbrush and not forget to floss, especially in-between their dental implants. Powered toothbrushes are also beneficial because they allow patients to focus on specific interfaces of the dental implants. Water flossing offers another effective way to get rid of plaque and keep teeth and dental implants healthy and strong. As a matter of fact, water flossing is more comfortable for patients with dental implants, since it does not irritate the gums and soft tissue. Last but not least, patients experiencing grinding problems, can opt for mouth guards to prevent bone loss.
With the ongoing popularity of dental implants and the possibility of peri-implantitis, educating patients in proper oral hygiene is crucial. A dentist can improve a patient's oral health and implant health and decrease the possibility of implant rejection or premature implant loss. These steps combined will ensure that dental implants will be in great condition for many years to come.

Eve Horowitz (USA) is the founder and Executive Director of the Honduras Child Alliance and she coordinates the recruiting and placement of our international volunteers. Her big secret (revealed here) is that although everyone knows that she gets mucho satisfaction from sending volunteers to work with the children in Honduras, she also gets tremendous joy from observing the impact on each volunteer as they return to their home countries. They are transformed and never quite view their lives in the same way as before. They're not just changing Honduras – – they are changing the world!
In addition to focusing on fundraising & program development, Eve brings a blend of creative and operational strengths to Honduras Child Alliance. With 20+ years of management & leadership experience, she is an accomplished fundraiser and commercial writer and specializes in the area of training and development. With a B.A. in Education from Goddard College, she also has a Certificate in Fundraising from the University of Pennsylvania and is currently enrolled at the International Institute for Restorative Practices. When not in Honduras, Eve resides in Pennsylvania, USA.
First visiting Honduras in 1992, Eve initially considered sponsoring Honduran children in need as a cross-cultural experience for her own two kids. As she understood more about the social issues facing impoverished children in Honduras, it became a larger mission. Recognizing that her actions and support could create immediate, tangible improvement in the children's lives she began developing volunteer-powered programs that have evolved to become HCA. Eve travels to and from El Porvenir 4-5X each year and considers Honduras her second home. She views the Honduras Child Alliance as, "a wish come true".

Levi Reynolds b. 1850 < Benjamin /PA/OH/IN/
Not my family line, just sharing.
From the book "HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY, COUNTIES OF WHITE AND PULASKI INDIANA. Historical and Biographical. Illustrated. Chicago; F. A. Battey & CO., Publishers. 1883."
page 387, Big Creek Township, White County, Indiana
"LEVI REYNOLDS was born in this township March 7, 1850, and is one of five children, now living, born to BENJAMIN and LYDIA J. (GARDNER) REYNOLDS, natives respectively of Pennsylvania and North Carolina. BENJAMIN REYNOLDS, although he attended school but three nights in his life, acquired, by his own exertions a sound practical business education. When a young man, he settled in Perry County, Ohio, where he married, and soon after bought and operated a stage line from Vincennes to Toledo, following the Wabash and Maumee Rivers. In 1828, a distemper carried away many of the large number of horses used, leaving MR. REYNOLDS almost penniless. In about 1830, he came to this county and began life anew. Being well acquainted with the country, he was employed to locate land on commission, which commission consisted chiefly in lands, and thus he became owner of from 15,000 to 20,000 acres in Indiana and Illinois. He was eminently a public-spirited man. He had a contract for excavating many miles of the State ditch, a part of which he sub-let. He was largely influential in locating and building the N. A. & S. R. R., and also the Pan Handle Railroad, in both of which he became a large stockholder. He was also interested in the Junction Railroad, and in 1854 or 1855 had the misfortune to lose $100,000 by that concern. His first wife bore him five children, four of whom are yet living. He married his second wife, LYDIA J. GARDNER, at Vincennes, in 1839 or 1840. She is now living at Monon, this county, and is a member of the Presbyterian Church. MR. REYNOLDS laid out the town of Reynolds, which was named for him by GOV. WILLARD. During the late war, MR. REYNOLDS met with his second financial reverse, having to pay over $40,000 bail debts. From this, however, he had nearly recovered before his death, June 6, 1869, at his home in this township. LEVI REYNOLDS and a brother cultivated the home farm after the father's death, until the same was sold under administrator's sale and bought by the mother, and the estate divided. In 1878, he went to Monticello, and engaged in the livery and saloon business until 1881, when he returned to the farm. He was married in September, 1879, to MARY E. COOPER, a native of Perry County, Ohio, who has borne him two children - ROY H. and GLENN C. MR. REYNOLDS is Road Superintendent of the township, is a member of Brookston Lodge, No. 66, A. F. & A. M., and in politics is a Democrat."

Tafelmusik Baroque Orchestra and Chamber Choir at Trinity-Saint Paul's/
Tafelmusik Website.
Tafelmusik The word is German and means "table music" or "music for the feast."
The name is apt because Tafelmusik has produced a feast of firsts and bests, and has won admiration throughout the musical world.
Tafelmusik's vision is to be an international centre of excellence in period performance for generations to come. To sustain this vision, Tafelmusik is now creating artists and audiences for the future through artist training and audience development activities.
Tafelmusik's mission is to engage audiences locally, provincially, nationally and internationally with historically informed live and recorded musical experiences on period instruments.
Through its extensive national and international tours, its critically-acclaimed recordings and TV broadcasts, its new media initiatives and growing web of community and artistic partnerships, Tafelmusik is one of the most prolific orchestras in the world.
Tafelmusik, Canada's award-winning period instrument orchestra, was founded in 1979 and has long been renowned in North America and internationally for its distinct, exhilarating and soulful performances. Under the outstanding leadership of Chief Artistic Advisor Jeanne Lamon, C.M., it has excelled equally in music ranging from the baroque and classical eras and beyond, including adventurous cross-cultural reinventions of baroque classics. In the words of Gramophone, Tafelmusik is "one of the world's top baroque orchestras."
The Tafelmusik Chamber Choir, specializing in baroque performance practice and vocal technique, was formed in 1981 to complement the orchestra. Under the direction of Ivars Taurins, the choir has been praised for its clarity and brilliance and has been described as "the best period-performance choir anywhere in the world…" (The Globe and Mail).

Welcome back to another edition of the captains. Those who backed Aguero were desperately unlucky last week, however it was Suarez that announced himself as everyone's number 1 option, only more so with Aguero's absence. However strange things happen in football, so there must be alternatives! Let's take a look at the options…
The Contenders:
Remy – I like Remy for at least a goal this week. He has gone a few games without a goal now and was desperately unlucky last week with an effort cleared off the line. However Crystal Palace have become a tighter defence since Pulis took over the reins, so I wouldn't be gain enough to captain him.
Rooney – Rooney at full fitness would be locked in at number 2. However his groin problem is causing us headaches and to be honest, my gut feeling is that he won't play. You can't captain a man in doubt, so unfortunately he misses out this week.
Silva – Man City will only continue to thrive with the return of Silva, regardless of Aguero's absence. A substitution is almost certainly on the cards for Silva, but he will still have time to deal the damage. I think they'll put their away demons behind them this week and crush Fulham, so don't write him off.
Ozil – Usually a consistent, safe option and can only get better with the return of Walcott. However he is struggling to take games by the scruff of the neck and isn't putting in hugely dominating performances. Chelsea will be sure to cut off his supply and make sure every one of his passes are under pressure. Not for me.
Lukaku – I've been trying to preach this for ages now, and hopefully last week was the nail in the midprice captain coffin. Lukaku won't put in continuous dominating performances like premiums will, that's why they're cheaper!!! You risk too much in my opinion captaining guys like Lukaku, so I'd be avoiding the armband altogether. Lukaku also tends to shine in tougher games, and has struggled to break down the weaker teams on paper. They just lock down on him! He does enjoy the fight and should be great for your squad this weekend.
Coutinho – I think Cout's is due some luck after coming close on a number of occasions once again last week, only to have the crossbar deny him. Liverpool will surely open up Cardiff thanks to the genius of our number 1 pick, and it should only open more space for the likes of Coutinho to thrive. I think he could be great this week, but not the best!
Top 3:
1. Suarez – Who else? Seriously, the man is a genius. 61 points in the last 3 gameweeks at over 20 points per game. Ummmm… 17 goals in 11 games, 9 assists to go along with them, meaning he creates over 2 goals a game! Ridiculous. He is averaging over 12 points per game this season, is on track for 50 goals and over 400 fpl points come the end of the season. Those figures even outshine the days of Ronaldo. You would think he'll surely slow down, but how can you see that at the moment? I agree with those that say his run must come to an end soon, but can you really see him being held back by Cardiff? Any defence for that matter? I saw a stat the other day, showing that after missing 9 Premier League games in 2013, he has 25 more shots on target than anyone else. Incredible. His stats are unmatched and he really should be everyone's captain this week. It would be stupidity not to, but I guess miracles do happen! Suarez not scoring would be one of them.
2. Walcott – If you're still reading, then Walcott could be a great captaincy option from now on if you're after a differential. There's no doubt it's risky, however his ability to make runs and penetrate in behind opposition defences is rarely matched. He seems to have polished off his finishing after missing what seemed like 20 one on ones in the first few rounds, and if he can capitalise on the opportunities he is sure to be given, I can see him being a massive scorer this season. Very risky, but worth a shot for those who live on the wild side.
3. Negredo – I have heard quite a few shouts for Negredo captain this week, and I can't agree. However he does show enough promise to sneak in at number 3. He hasn't been a massive scorer this season, failing to score more than 1 in any single game. Not exactly captain material. However as I mentioned in Transfer Talk earlier in the week, he should benefit from Aguero's absence in leading the City frontline. Not a bad job to have! City should comfortably account for Fulham and Negredo is likely to find himself on the scoresheet once again, although he only has 1 away goal all season. Stats are there to be changed!
The Punt:
Hazard – You never know what Hazard you will get, however he has put in some astonishing performances this season. He has the most successful dribbles of any player this year, and racks up key passes while he's at it. There's no doubting he has the ability to shred Arsenal's weakened defence to pieces, but it's a risky pick at the same time. The absence of Gibbs and Koscielny concerns me, making Hazard a great punt this week if you're willing to take the risk. Then again did I mention Suarez plays Cardiff?
So that's it from me this week. As much as there are some interesting options elsewhere, there is only one man you should be captaining this week. It's unlikely we'll ever see domination like this for a long time! Good luck to everyone for this week, cheers.

Parts Shortages Crimp U.S. Factories
By Doug Cameron and Austen Hufford | Aug. 10, 2018 5:30 a.m. ET
American factories are running short of parts.
Suppliers of everything from engines to electronic components aren't keeping up with a boom in U.S. manufacturing, which has lifted demand in markets such as energy, mining and construction. As a result, some manufacturers are idling production lines and digesting higher costs.

See the daily excerpt from the preparatory catechesis for the 2015 World Meeting of Families, "Love is Our Mission: The Family Fully Alive."
193. Minority status in a culture does not mean marginal or irrelevant status. The Catechism of the Catholic Church, teaching on our vocation to participate in society, cites a Christian letter, written at a time when the Church was far from established or socially prestigious. The temptation to withdraw must have been real, but the letter says: "Do not live entirely isolated, having retreated into yourselves as if you were already justified, but gather instead to seek the common good together." This outward-looking, service-oriented spirit actually has an even more ancient pedigree. Said the prophet Jeremiah to the Jewish exiles in Babylon, even though the Babylonians had sacked Jerusalem and taken the Jews prisoners: "Seek the welfare of the city to which I have exiled you; pray for it to the Lord, for upon its welfare your own depends." (Jer 29:7, NAB)
In its introduction, the document says its aim is to present "Catholic teaching in a way that is fresh, insightful, and accessible to contemporary Catholics and all people of good will." The catechesis "offers a narrative beginning with our creation, soberly noting our fall and the challenges we face, but emphasizing God's plan for our salvation. Love is our mission, and it is by loving God and one another that we will be fully alive."
Each day in CatholicPhilly.com's World Meeting of Families section you can reflect on the official Catholic teaching on the family presented in the catechesis, pray a special prayer together as a family or individually, and stay on top of breaking news about the events coming Sept. 22-27, 2015.

Kind charity donation in memory of former Sheffield singer
South Yorkshire dementia charity Lost Chord has received a £500 donation in memory of a former Sheffield woman who gave her life to music.
Lost Chord is the organisation that provides vital interactive musical experiences for people living with dementia in care homes and day centres and the family of Josephine Andrews, who began her life of song in Sheffield, wanted her legacy to be the continued gift of music.
Josephine's son Steve said: "My mum was a soprano opera singer who came from the worst poverty that 1920s Sheffield could have thrown at anyone. Her mother Sally Moore was a well-known pub singer in the city and when she died in 1944 there six wreaths at her funeral, all from public houses.
"Mum was a natural singer too but was too poor to afford singing lessons, though she was helped by some tutors who spotted her talent and eventually, she secured an audition with John Barbirolli, which led to her singing for the Halle Choir."
It was because of her love of music that, following her death, Steve decided he had to make a donation to Lost Chord. To find how you can support Lost Chord visit www.lost-chord.org.uk website.

Social media ban unnecessary, ineffective
March 1, 2017
Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
As mostly each and every student who owns a phone or has a social media account at know, most social media has been blocked on the WiFi. This helps the teachers to gain the focus of many students who would otherwise be distracted by their phones and social media.
Although this decreases distraction drastically, students still are distracted by their phones as well as other devices. These other devices include laptops and Chromebooks, which are given to each student for school work.
Furthermore, students only need to turn WiFi off on their phones and use their cellular data to bypass the ban.
So in order for faculty to gain full attention and focus from students, they would need to ban all devices, which is highly unlikely, due to the fact that much of today's world revolves around technology. So to block social media would help, but only a little. Students always find a way to get themselves "out" of class.

Formula for figuring the yardage needed to complete a triangle loom project. Additional yarn would be needed if you want a fringe.
Measure the length of the longest side (hypotenuse) in inches.
Multiply that length by the number of pins on a side. Triangle loom side all have the same number of pins on each side so count any side.
Divide by 36 to get total length in yards. This formula works with any triangle loom, regardless of pin spacing.
Additional info on this can be found at www.waynesthisandthat.com/triloom2.htm - look down on page
My small Hideaway adjustable trilooms are 3', 4', or 5' in size. There are made with 1.5" wide oak wood and fastened at the corners with screws that turn into pre-tapped holes in the oak rail ends.
Go to www.etsy.com/shop/RogersLooms and you can see what I have presently listed for sale there. For the 7' adj. triloom prices, see the 'shop announcement' where it says 'read more'. Shipping cost for the 7.5' tube weighing 14 lbs can vary greatly from one part of the US to another. Therefore I like to figure the shipping cost for each sale. I can sell any of these looms directly to you if you contact me using email or the CONTACT link. I can discount the Etsy price. This is also a way to arrange for a custom order or ask a question.
When I sell to you directly using a PayPal invoice, I am not obligated to collect a sales tax, which Etsy now does for more states. I save in fees by selling directly, and can share these savings. You also save by not paying sales tax for your city, county and state. These are the states involved as of July 2019:
Washington (January 1, 2018)
Pennsylvania (April 1, 2018)
Oklahoma (August 1, 2018)
Minnesota (October 1, 2018)
Iowa (February 1, 2019)
Connecticut (February 1, 2019)
South Carolina (February 1, 2019)
South Dakota (March 1, 2019)
New Jersey (April 1, 2019)
District of Columbia (April 1, 2019)
Alabama (July 1, 2019)
Pictured below is one of my 7 ft. Hideaway Adjustable Triangle Looms. These triangle looms adjust like many others, in a "pinwheel" fashion. That is: the smaller the adjusted size, the more the excess wood rails stick out in 3 directions. In my opinion, the loom is most practical when used in one of the larger adjusted sizes. I make them adjust down smaller as it is possible someone could use them at the smaller settings, for example hung on a large wall spac
Explanation of Pin Spacing Choices That I have used. This information might be useful to a Do It Yourselfer.
Fine Sett: Hypotenuse, slightly less than 3/8" (actually 9mm) Sides, exactly 1/4"
Medium Sett: Hypotenuse, slightly less than 7/16" (.442") Sides, exactly 5/16"
Standard 1/2" Sett: Hypotenuse 1//2" Sides, exactly 9mm
You can see that the Medium Sett is about half way between the fine sett and the standard sett.
The first Hideaway brand adjustable triloom I made was a 3' loom, medium sett, that adjusts down to 2.5', 2', and 1.5' sizes. The current version adjusts down in 3 inch increments, 6 sizes in all. The 3' size is a full 36" along the hypotenuse (long) side of the triangle. I can now make adjustable trilooms in any of the 3 pin spacing plans shown below. Photo below shows the 3' adjustable triloom set at 2 1/2'.
Machine screws turn into hidden metal dowel nuts. There are no fasteners showing from the front. The back of the loom is smooth, it can be hung on a wall without damaging the wall.
Large HIDEAWAY Adjustable Triloom Sizes: These are made with 2.25" wide oak wood and are fastened as shown with machine screws that turn into sunken metal nuts.

Buy 1 triangle loom, any size and get 7% off the Etsy price. I would send you a PayPal invoice to pay, or we could arrange payment by Money Order.
I have not done wholesale orders until recently. I was stocked up with smaller looms, so have started selling 3' and 5' in quantities for a shop back east. They sold out the first order. I make boxes that can hold 2 looms, and when I fasten 2 boxes together, 4 looms at a time. So it is more efficient as I make fewer boxes for shipping, and makes a more economical shipping cost per loom for the buyer. Especially for the 5' size triloom. FedEx or UPS has an extra $10.50 charge for each box longer than 48 inches when sent separately. .
Your cost for buying one 3' adj. triangle loom is $125 plus shipping. Two 3' adj. trilooms would be $118 each plus shipping. Four 3' adj. trilooms would be $105 each plus shipping.
I presently (May 2019) do not have enough 5' adj. triangle looms to sell in quantities. Also do not have enough boxes made or cardboard to make them..
Above prices are for the standard 1/2" sett trilooms and the Medium Sett 7/16" trilooms. Contact me to get a shipping quote. My looms sell well when people can see them and touch them in a shop. A weaving group or guild or class is also a potential customer for my triangle looms.
My 7' Hideaway Adjustable Triangle Loom has a weaving hypotenuse of a full 84 inches at the largest setting. Some other common brands have sold looms that fall short of their advertised size. Medium Sett shown here.
Roger's Looms
Adjustment Sizes
For my 7' adjustable triangle looms I have been making the size 7', 6.5', 6', 5.5', 5'. 4.5' & 4'. The adjustment settings are every 6 inches, going down from the largest size. I have started making the looms adjust to smaller sizes even though I do not think it is practical for everyone.
My looms have one-piece oak rails that are very strong. Even though triloom continuous strand weavers know to weave loosely, sometimes the tension can get very tight and lots of strain is put on the wood rails.
Triloom Frame Strength
A standard pin spacing 7' (84") loom with 1/2" hypotenuse spacing has 169 pins on each side.
My medium sett 7' loom has 191 pins on each side. 13% more on each side than standard sett.
My fine sett 7' loom has 238 pins on each side. 41% more than standard sett.
Each strand of yarn exerts a pull on the loom frame rails. The more strands of yarn, the more strain on the loom frame. The tighter you weave, the more strain on the frame. Towards the end of the project the weaving gets tighter and tighter and can be enough to bend the rails. Or as some have found out with home-built looms, the tension can cause structural failure. Just saying, looms with finer pin spacing need to be strong and one-piece oak rails are strong.

A lineup of five top rock musicians, including Bruce Springsteen, Sting and Peter Gabriel, is to join a six-week concert tour of five continents to promote support for Amnesty International and the Universal Declaration of Human Rights.
The tour, which is to begin with a concert at Wembley Stadium in London on Sept. 2, is expected to include as many as 20 cities in Africa, Asia, Europe and North and South America. The tour is to end Oct. 15 in Buenos Aires with a concert broadcast internationally on radio and television.
''If all goes well, the concerts will reach somewhere between a million and 1.2 million people,'' said the American producer Bill Graham, who is the tour's international director.
Though concerts such as Live Aid and the recent Nelson Mandela birthday tribute also reached vast audiences through broadcasts, Human Rights Now!, as the tour is called, would be the music world's largest political awareness tour. 11 International Respond To date, confirmations have been received from 11 cities in France, Italy, England, Costa Rica, Brazil, Argentina, the United States and Canada, the organizers said in a news conference Sunday. The two United States concerts will take place at J. F. K. Stadium in Philadelphia on Sept. 19 and the Los Angeles Coliseum on Sept. 21.
Negotiations are still under way for concerts in Africa, Asia and Eastern Europe, though organizers would not name specific cities and countries.
''It's a delicate situation dealing with governments,'' said Mr. Graham, who organized Amnesty International's 1986 Conspiracy of Hope concerts in the United States. ''Some of the problems are political but there are also the logistical problems of setting up concerts and bringing in electrical equipment to places that have never had anything like this before.'' Local Singers and Musicians
Other artists participating in Human Rights Now! include the American singer and songwriter Tracy Chapman and the Senegalese musician Youssou N'Dour, who recently appeared at the First New York International Festival of the Arts. Local singers and musicians would also join the main touring group in most cities. All artists will donate their time, though a work force of between 125 and 150 technicians will be paid, the organizers said.
A big-name concert tour was seen as the best way to renew international interest in the human rights declaration, which is 40 years old this year, according to John G. Healey, the executive director of Amnesty International U.S.A.
''Half the world is under the age of 25, and a great part can't read,'' he said. ''With music, we can communicate to all people equally well in the rich and poor nations of the East and West, and demand that governments give human rights now.''
The tour is intended to raise awareness, not funds, added Franca Sciuto, the chairman of Amnesty International's international executive committee. ''We want people to know that they have rights and can fight for them. The concerts are to focus on making the declaration better known.''
The tour, which is being underwritten by Reebok International, has been budgeted at $23 million. Ticket prices for Human Rights Now! will vary from country to country, with United States tickets priced at $35.
''But in third-world countries, the ticket price may be $2 to $5,'' Mr. Graham said. ''You might get 50,000 people and raise $150,000, but the concert could cost $500,000.'' Profits from ticket sales in Western countries will be used to subsidize concerts in less affluent nations.

Even the slightest glimpse at my previous reviews for this series and you'll know that it's been a hit with me since the beginning. The artwork is striking and caught my attention instantly and kept me coming back for more, it was only a plus that the story was entertaining and interesting as well. Unfortunately, and it pains me to say this, the conclusion of the series failed to meet the mark of the previous four chapters and delivered an average at best story. The artwork remained amazing as the first issue, but was given next to nothing to work with in this final issue. In the last issue we saw Tos'un betray his wife Sinnafain in order to progress into the caves of the Underdark with his daughter. We pick up in this issue with Tos'un carrying Doum and her being rather confused by everything. She begins talking decently normal and her father continues to tell white lies about her situation. He also knows what the sword is telling her to do and what it's saying about him at times, but for the first time in the entire series… we're not given the swords dialog. The rest of the issue is spent with Father and Daughter traveling the caves to reach Tos'un's home and him telling her half-truths.
The thing about this series is that it's never been about Doum, but rather about the sword "Cutter." Yes the father has played a huge role in shaping the story and guiding Doum and technically the sword, but he's always been in the background. I didn't have a problem with him playing a larger role since it was impossible for him not to, but I do have a problem with the huge narrative shift on the final issue. If it was gearing up for the next arc that would be one thing, but this series technically ends with this issue, hence "The End" appearing on the final page. I wouldn't doubt that the story is going to continue, but it's bad storytelling to just say, "We'll get them next time" and leave this chapter of the story with its ass hanging out in the wind. There's no conclusion to the events of the series and all character development was completely halted. Now I understand the gimmick of marketing a new mini with a fresh first issue, but if that was going to be the case then this should have been the first issue for the next volume not the ending of this one. My argument for this is in the dialog as everything father and daughter talk about is just a recap of the events that lead to their current journey.
As I said in the beginning the artwork doesn't disappoint, but it's given nothing to work with. Baldeon does a great job of showing the characters emotions as they arise in the conversations. This is the only place that you get a true sense of the characters personalities and really how evil Tos'un is; other than that though… they're just walking through a cave. Baldeon has illustrated some incredible action sequences and granted the story needed a break, but to not find something he could illustrate that was equally amazing just seems like a waste; caves and water are not the proper replacement.
Don't get me wrong the issue is still purchase worthy, but it's nothing compared to the previous four issues. The story is average in every sense of the word, while the art is striving to be anything but. If you were on the fence with the last issue then you might want to just call it there since this issue doesn't offer anything other than a set up for the next series (which is sure to have a recap anyways), but if like me you were really looking forward to this issue and plan on getting it anyways… then brace yourself.
Score: 3/5

It's the middle of a heat wave and you finally have a chance for a date night. The problem is you don't know what to wear. Don't give up the chance to go out and spend time with your special someone just because of the weather! Here are my picks for a hot (temps, people!) night out.
What Silhouette? -
Choose something flowy with a looser fit. Think flowy dress. An A-line is a great example of the shape perfect for warmer temperatures. You don't wear dresses? No problem, go for a flowy wide-legged pant and simple top. I love the option of a jumpsuit that has a fuller cut leg and not full-length as well.
What Fabric? -
Think natural fabrics. Go for cotton, linen, silk or some blend of any of those. It's the natural fabric that will continue to breath all evening for you and keep you comfortable.
How to stay comfortable all evening?
Think layers and possibilities. Chances are you will be in and out of air conditioning so you will need a layer to add or take off. I love the idea of a white shirt tied at the waist for this. You could easily do a denim shirt in it's place. The other option would be a cardigan, of course.
I've put together a few of my top picks below. (Yes, if you order the exact item thru the link I do get a small commission). Maybe it's time to go shopping or...maybe this will inspire you to shop your own closet. Either way, take time to spend time, with your someone special soon.

Wondering what this year has in store in terms of phones? Nafisa Akabor checks out the latest and most impressive.
It's that time of year again when we look at new smartphones from MWC Barcelona – previously called the Mobile World Congress – which took place at the end of February and where folding screens and 5G have been all the rage. While we don't have to worry about 5G anytime soon, here are some of the top Android devices heading our way this year.
Galaxy Fold
The most exciting thing to happen in the mobile space in years was the unveiling of a new category of device, the hybrid Galaxy Fold, a few days before MWC. It is both an 11.7cm smartphone and an 18.5cm tablet that folds up to fit into a pocket. We got a sneak peak of it at the Johannesburg live-stream event and it looked impressive.

Still trying to decide if you want a smartwatch or a Fitbit? Now you might not have to make the distinction.
Fitbit announced the Fitbit Blaze at CES, a smartwatch that builds on the capabilities traditionally found in your average Fitbit, while adding a color display, customizable watch faces and even a handful of different bands to choose from – the device slots into a range of straps.
At first glance, the Blaze looks a bit like an Apple Watch. The device has a hexagonal face and an LCD touchscreen that displays the time and other details about your movement for the day.
Where the device stands out, however, is in how it plans to help you workout. New with Blaze is its integration with FitStar, a company Fitbit acquired last year. With the integration, the smartwatch is capable of offering guided workouts. It also offers traditional smartwatch features such as notifications for calls, texts and calendar items, although you won't be able to run other apps.
As you might expect, Blaze also tracks some of the same things previous Fitbit devices were capable of: steps, sleep and calories burned. On the tracking side of the things, the smartwatch is capable of monitoring exercises like elliptical workouts, running and tennis.
Unlike some other smartwatches that do the same, the Blaze will track those activities, and your heart rate, automatically, with no need to start or stop a workout in order to get credit for completing it. Your heart rate is tracked every five seconds throughout your day, and then every second while you're working out, a combination that should yield accurate results without draining the battery.
Speaking of the battery, Fitbit promises five days of battery life on a single change. If it delivers, that will put it ahead of the competition when it comes to smartwatches; however, it is on par with some of the other activity trackers out there.
The Blaze starts at $199.95, and is available for pre-order today from Fitbit's online store with the first devices set to ship in March. Additional watch bands will be sold separately, and will be priced between $30 for an elastic band and $130 for one made of stainless steel.
Unlike other smartwatches out there, when you want to change watch bands you'll actually pop that face out of the current one rather than remove the bands.
Taking a page from Apple, with its "try-on appointments" for the Apple Watch, Best Buy locations will have the Blaze available to try out starting 20 February . The device will ultimately be available there as well as other retailers such as Amazon, Target, and Brookstone.
Markets were less impressed with Fitbit's offering. Shares fell 11.7% on the announcement, to under $27. The response indicates concern that the device is underpriced; it costs $150 less than the cheapest Apple Watch, but has a similar feature set to the Fitbit Surge, which costs $50 more.

North Star believe in working closely in the community and particularly in wanting to help the younger generation achieve their goals and dreams.
Just recently, their daughter Madison, who is playing her first debut season for the 1st team has signed for a 4 year scholarship with Upper Iowa University (NCAA Division II) to pursue her football career and degree in Phycology and Spanish.
It has been worth the while travelling up and down the country and sending her on tournaments throughout Europe. The next forthcoming one will be in Barcelona for a week!

We will of course continue to support the Gillingham Ladies even after Maddie's departure, as we have got to know a many of the ladies and their families. It will be great if we could watch the ladies progress and move up to the premier division.

This morning as Little Miss was getting ready for her second day of Kindergarten, she looked up at me and said, "I'm just not handling this too well." Off she went with her pillow and blanket in the car. Evidently, this new early to bed, early to rise schedule is not settling too well with her.
During my Phonics lesson this morning, I made a mistake. I smiled, leaned forward and whispered, " I have a little secret to tell you. But please don't tell anybody that sometimes I mess up." Sweet little "M" looked up at me and said, " Yep, you definitely got some issues."
So with issues in tow today, we managed to have an excellent day. I actually was able to teach (yesterday was full of rules and procedures) and that made me happy. Guess a sign of a true teacher is the satisfaction from instructing.

When deciding where to go and what to do on a first date, nearly three-quarters of daters (73 percent) opt for grabbing drinks. According to a recent study from dating site Zoosk, many choose drinks over a traditional dinner date because it's an "easy and less formal" interaction that can help singles relax and open up in conversation. Keeping it simple allows singletons to focus on asking thoughtful first date questions so they can learn about each other and make a good first impression.
Even after you've picked the perfect time and place to meet, you still need to decide what drink you're going to order once you get there. Though it's a small part of the date, your drink order is one of the first things your date learns about you and can even help break the ice. After all, what you drink, alcoholic or not, is a reflection of your personal tastes, so it's important to choose one that makes you feel good ... even in the slightly uncomfortable situation that is a first date.
Having a go-to drink order can help put your mind at ease so you can focus on making a romantic connection, but if you need a little help deciding, these are the 10 most popular drinks to order on first date.
Beer and wine were the big winners, coming in first and second for both men and women. Interestingly, these top two first date drinks — beer for men and wine for women — were preferred by an overwhelming majority (62 percent) of survey respondents. When it comes to cocktails, however, the margarita reigns supreme, with 29 percent of women and 23 percent of men opting for the tequila and lime-infused drink.
For non-alcoholic beverages, daters prefer coffee over tea, with 26 percent of both women and men getting their caffeine fix that way.
Interestingly, the four least popular drinks for men didn't even make the cut for women, and vice versa. A gin and tonic came in last for men with 9 percent, while just 10 percent of women chose a daiquiri.
So when in doubt, beer and wine are always a safe choice, but ultimately, when it comes to first dates — and the drinks we enjoy on them — there's no accounting for taste. We like what we like, so cheers to that.

And so, with my having read six Sarah Dessen books in a row, the #DessenDays Read-A-Thon comes to a close. At least for me--if there is anyone who is still doing it, please go ahead! And tag me in your posts so I can see them 🙂 It was really fun and I definitely missed Sarah Dessen. I used to read and re-read her books all the time and I was surprised by how much I didn't remember (and how much they took me back to my high school book club days)! I know that in my original post I said I'd do a couple of mini reviews at a time, but I changed my mind so I'm going to give them all to you now and then give my overall thoughts at the end. So here they are, in the order I read them.

Radio Dream Teams, "The Night Shift," And Scritti Politti: Craig Allen and Anne Gress On Radio
There are no two people more enthusiastic about radio than those at the helm of "The Night Shift with Craig Allen," the new Classic Hits evening show from Compass Media that launched in early April. Allen is the guy who used the public affairs show as a wedge into his hometown radio station, where the PD told him to stop being so enthusiastic and making the rest of the staff look bad. Gress was the programmer who always had thoughts on whatever was in "Ross On Radio" each week, even as her WOGL Philadelphia became the station that ushered in this decade's resurgence of Classic Hits.
Gress, Allen, Townsquare president of local programming Kurt Johnson (whose 17 Classic Hits stations are among those carrying the show from 7 p.m.-Midnight on weekdays), and voice-of-"The Night Shift" Dan Kelly all came through Star 104.5/Alice 104.5 Philadelphia in the late '90s and the early '00s. Gress, Allen, and Johnson were reunited when Gress became PD of WKXW (New Jersey 101.5), the News/Talk powerhouse where Allen hosts Classic Hits on Saturday afternoon.
Allen and Gress are clearly the kind of people you want to hang out and talk radio with. Even during the planning sessions for "The Night Shift," (for which the author oversees the show's mix of mid-'70s through early '90s hits with an emphasis on the '80s), you could pretty much count on radio geekery to break out. So here's what talking radio with Anne Gress and Craig Allen sounds like.
Sean Ross: You're obviously the sort of radio people for whom the fascination with radio began early, and who had a lot of radio influences…
Anne Gress: My father moved the whole family every few years. I grew up listening to the greatest stations of all time. In Phoenix it was KOY, in Los Angeles it was KHJ, in Minneapolis it was KDWB, in Tampa it was Q105 and the Power Pig WFLZ [where Gress eventually worked]. The DJs were my first friends in every city we lived, and Casey Kasem was my best friend because he was in every station. I didn't know I was going to work in radio but that course was being set for me throughout my life.
Craig Allen: I knew from age nine, when I wasn't even tall enough to see over the little wall that separated the audience from the station at the 4H Fair . . . I grew up in New Jersey with the best of New York and Philadelphia, with summer vacations in Wisconsin where I got to hear the Chicago radio wars. When I came back to go the Univ. of Wisconsin, I used to listen to Big Ron O'Brien on W-NNNN-BC at night. I wrote a friend at WNBC and said "who is this guy?" Little did I know in the '90s that we'd be working together.
I started out as a news guy in college. My first opportunity was at Wisconsin Public Radio and when I came back to New Jersey, I got into news and full-service stations, but always wanted to be a DJ. When I was at Star 104.5 Philadelphia and Kurt was brought in as PD, I immediately recognized him as the guy I listened to at night in my dorm room on WZEE (Z104) Madison, feverishly writing my papers. He told me he used to hear me in the morning on WPR. We bonded over our love of '80s music right away, and I ended up hosting a Saturday night '80s show that helped lay the groundwork for what I'm doing on "The Night Shift" now.
Anne: Star 104.5 was a dream team of people with Steve Rivers, one of the most brilliant programmers ever, collaborating with John Cook and Gerry DeFrancesco, they had come up with this [rhythmic-based Hot AC] concept, and it was a new way to look at programming. I was lucky enough that they had an MD opening. I was lucky to fall in with Steve who was very kind and patient and generous with his philosophy. That station was truly innovative, and of a moment.
Craig: It was an AC station but it was playing Bobby Brown, Amii Stewart, Stevie B….
Sean: In a lot of ways it was the station that laid the groundwork for WKTU New York.
Anne: That station at that moment was one of the most exciting things I've ever done.
Craig: Dave Kaye, the production director, was playing back the listener line and there was a woman calling from New York, who lived on the top floor of a tall building and listened to us. She said, 'You guys are all that and a bag of chips." That was the first time we ever heard that expression. You can be sure that made it into a promo.
Sean: So about working with Big Ron O'Brien….? (immediately, both begin talking at once)
Craig: I never ever saw hm write anything down. He just sat there and would snap his fingers and bob his head and the break came out. And he always had something great, and he always hit the post. I said, "Ron, you're so far past being postmaster general that it's not worth mentioning."
Anne: There was a definite physical-ness to his show. For a guy who wasn't really into physical anything, he was very physical and animated in the studio.
Craig: He'd be ready to do a break and a grin would break out. He'd lean in to the mic and his head would start to bob, and out came gold. And here comes the post, and here are some interior posts. He's moving in and out effortlessly without any notes whatsoever. He'd played these songs so many times, and he knew them by heart. It just came pouring out of him. When I would fill in for him, there was always an extra energy because it was Ron's show. There was just an added magic that took you over.
Sean: Dan Kelly, who does the show's imaging, was in Philly as well. Craig had met him at WPST Trenton and helped recommend him for the job.
Anne: The best production directors have a sixth sense. They take a script, look at it once, and in their head, they've got it! You come back and it's bigger and better than you hoped it could ever be. That's what Dan does.
Craig: You just have to unleash the beast, and he will come back and amaze you every time. He went from Philly straight to New York. He did imaging for Scott Shannon.
Sean: Anne, you ended up programming Smooth Jazz on WJJZ…
Anne: I wanted to be a PD. I had a job offer in San Francisco, but my then-GM Jeff Specter didn't want to lose me. They told me to come back in 24 hours, then they said 'we're going to give you WJJZ.' I looked at them like they had ten heads, because I didn't know anything about Jazz. I had Broadcast Architecture's framework, but I would also reach out to Steve Rivers and he would tell me to 'just play the hits.' I realized we did have hits, but they were George Benson, 'Breezin'" or Sade, 'No Ordinary Love.' I turned it into a top 40 that played jazz because I didn't know what else to do, and it worked out really well.
My GM at WJJZ, Sil Scaglione, had gone across town to WOGL. We'd really enjoyed working with each other. He kept begging me to come over and finally I did.
Sean: The Oldies format was trying to find its way at the time. Many stations were getting out of the format, not in. WOGL ended up being the first station that helped revitalize the format.
Anne: That's kind of you to say.
Craig: But if your success at WOGL hadn't happened, WCBS-FM might have been looking at something else [when its Jack-FM experiment ended, instead of returning to Classic Hits].
Anne: I walked in and they were in fourteenth place. The president of CBS told me "you're never going to make WOGL work." That made me mad and I said "I'm going to make it top 5." Then I wondered "what did I just say?" But I was playing these songs I'd played my whole career. It all worked out.
Sean: Tell me about working with Craig at New Jersey 101.5, and now on 'The Night Shift.' What's special about him on-air?
Anne: The passion for the music. He's always had it. You can tell when people are faking it. The headphones come off and it's 'four and the door.' That's not Craig at all. He loves the music. That passion and emotion are not fake. He's played that song a thousand times before. He's excited to play it again on the radio.
Craig: A great song is a great song. You hit it again, and the magic happens again.
Anne: That you think it's magic is great. These days, people call what they play product, not music anymore . . . As the show runner for "The Night Shift," the one thing I haven't had to do is fire Craig up, because he comes in fired up.
Craig: We're all '80s on Friday night. One of my favorite songs from the '80s that I've gotten to play that might surprise you is "Perfect Way" by Scritti Politti.
Anne: I had the 12-inch single.
Craig: I have that, plus two copies of the vinyl single and the CD.
Anne: Paul McCartney was recording in the next studio over, and he kept ducking in to listen to their stuff. He thought they were the best thing ever.
Craig: They're due for a comeback. So many of our "Night Shift" faves are on the road this summer, and that's awesome.
Anne: I've heard they're touring again.
Craig: I was lucky enough to meet the Go-Go's, Bryan Adams … all that great '80s music is just as relevant now. A whole new generation is learning it through their parents or a movie soundtrack. We present it as "the here and now" and here we are.
Anne: The unofficial theme song for the show is Wang Chung, "Everybody Have Fun Tonight." We're going to have fun through the talent, through the music, through the memories that are imprinted on you through the music. We all got in this business to have fun and we're putting it all back on the radio at night.
Craig: If you're having fun, the audience is having fun with you. Cracking the mic coast-to-coast used to be for the jocks on the 50,000-watt AMs or for guys like Casey Kasem. I get to have fun and I get to crack the mic coast-to-coast.

Texas baseball head coach Augie Garrido isn't even certain his players know that the Longhorns have lost 12 straight Big 12 Conference series dating back to 2012.
"I know I do," the veteran coach said.
If the players do know, they certainly haven't played like it lately as the 12th-ranked Longhorns prepare to try to break that streak this weekend in Lubbock against No. 24 Texas Tech.
UT (20-6, 1-2 in Big 12) trails only Tech (21-7, 3-3) for most victories among conference teams this year, and appears, for the most part, to have shaken off the woes from last season, which saw them finish last in the Big 12 and miss out on the postseason for the second straight season, something almost unheard of in Austin.
But there's still that one little hump to get over. The Longhorns ended the 2012 season with three straight series losses, dropped every single series in 2013 and the opening series of 2014 two weeks ago at home to Kansas.
Since then, Texas has won five straight games, including Tuesday's 5-1 victory over Texas State that made Garrido the all-time winningest coach in NCAA college baseball history, at any level, with 1,894 victories.
"I think in the last five games we've played pretty damn well," Garrido said. "I think what has happened with this team is that ... we faced some adversity when we lost the first two games of the year and got better the next two as a result of it because of the way we responded to the losing. They responded to it that way after the Kansas series as well and are learning to deal with adversity the right way."
The right way is playing baseball the Garrido way, which emphasizes pitching and defense and generating offense however the game dictates.
The Longhorns certainly have the pitching and defense part down. Texas enters the weekend leading the Big 12 in team ERA (1.88) and is tied with Tech in fielding percentage (.980).
Each one of the Longhorns three weekend starters have ERAs under 2.00 - Friday left-hander Dillon Peters (3-1, 1.79), Saturday right-hander Parker French (3-2, 2.62) and Sunday right-hander Nathan Thornhill (4-0, 1.01), all of whom returned from last season.
Right-hander John Curtis has four saves in nine appearances and has yet to allow an earned run after sitting out all of last season due to elbow surgery. Newcomer Lukas Schiraldi, a right-hander and son of former UT great Calvin Schiraldi, has been solid in the midweek, and sophomores Travis Duke and Ty Culbreth and freshman Morgan Cooper have been solid in relief
The scary part for opposing teams might be the fact that Garrido thinks the staff as a whole can be even better.
"I don't think they've hit their full stride yet," Garrido said. "I think that they're moving toward pitching with more consistency. Remember the three (starters) are pitching for a team that lost 21 one-run games last year, so there's still a little bit of that lingering. But I think these pitchers recognize that they have a lot more dependable support both defensively and offensively.
And it's that offense that will be the key to how far back the Longhorns can climb after last season.
Since reaching the NCAA Super Regionals in 2012, the Longhorns team batting average has dipped each year, from .263 to .259 last season, and this year at .256 coming into the weekend. UT averaged 4.81 runs per game in 2012, dipped to 3.84 in 2013 and is back up to 4.31 this season.
"Obviously, it depends on the opposing pitching, but we seem to be getting there," Garrido said. "I think we have a game that we can play at a consistent level. It isn't everything we can do on offense, but we can play to a high level pretty consistently."
Leading that charge is senior outfielder Mark Payton, who is second in the Big 12 in average at .420 and ranks in the league's top 10 in runs (37), triples (5), walks (21), total bases (54), on-base percentage (.532) and slugging percentage (.614).
Other than outfielders Collin Shaw and Ben Johnson, however, no UT player is hitting above .280, and Jacob Felts (.244 avg.) is the only other senior in the lineup besides Payton.
But while the numbers might look somewhat similar to last year, there is one factor that makes this year different, in Garrido's view.
"I think there's a one-word answer - attitude," Garrido said. "Our attitude is better about playing the game responsibly. And teamwork. We have a much different team, from each starting player and the role players are playing their part whether it's in the dugout or on the field. And they're doing it with more consistency."

|Young Christian in Pakistan suffers brutal attack – then 'police cover-up'
Eighteen-year-old 'Alian'* suffered a brutal sexual assault – but local police in Pakistan seem reluctant to investigate. The Christian teenager was beaten, stripped, gang-raped and forcibly converted to Islam – and left unconscious.
Please ask God to comfort and heal our young brother in Attock district in Punjab.
Release contacts who are supporting Alian and his family say it was a Muslim friend of Alian who lured him to an isolated place on false pretences.
When Alian was found after the attack, he was taken to hospital, where he was threatened and told to remain silent, according to his family. Police initially dismissed his rape allegations. Police have since arrested several suspects but appear to be pressuring the family to drop the case.

My Weekly Beauty Routine: My 5 Favorite Products
Please note that this post contains sponsored links. I only recommend items that I have personally used and loved. Thank you for supporting The Daily Bubbly.
This is not meant as a brag but I have been told my whole life how young I look and I always thank whomever and pass it off as genetics. Now my young beautiful skin has much to do with my genetics and I am very blessed but I do have a few tricks up my sleeve I cannot wait to share with you.
I love to sneak away for about thirty minutes once a week to give my face the love it deserves, and enjoy a tiny bit of me time. haha, It looks more like a dog sleeping in between my legs, my son talking up a storm about an animal or dinosaur he just made and my husband trying to shoo everyone out but not before stealing a kiss or a grab. I love to pour myself a glass of bubbly, click on Pandora and pamper away.
Step One: I use the Simple Cleansing Wipes to take off the day's makeup. I tried these earlier this year and I absolutely fell in love. The wipes are so gentle on my skin, I had to try the Simple Moisturizing Facial Wash and I have to say that it is wonderful. Both of these products are part of my daily routine, I use the facial wash in the morning and cleansing wipes at night.
Step Two: Next, I grab my cleansing facial brush, I use Vanity Planet Spin for Perfect Skin which I love, love, love. It scrubs out all the dirt and dead skin from my face and pores leaving my skin so soft. The best thing about this brush is it comes with four different attachments for whole body exfoliating and I know it's such a girly thing but it comes in a bunch of different colors. Pick your favorite and reduce those pores. Watch the video here to learn more about the Facial Cleansing Brushes. Get your very own Vanity Planet Spin for perfect Skin for 70% off Use Promo Code: BBSFPS70 when checking out! (http://bit.ly/2q8D46W) Watch the video here to learn more about the Facial Cleansing Brushes.
Step Three: I place on this amazing facial mask from Andalou Naturals INSTANT LIFT & FIRM HYDRO SERUM FACIAL MASK. It was gifted to me from my mom and I loved it so much I am absolutely addicted. It's super easy to use open the packet unfold and place on your face and leave in place for 10-20 mins, I like to leave it on for about 15 mins. I buy the individual ones for easy cleanup and I can travel with them, bonus. It's usually about this time in my "me-time" that I fold a load of laundry or finish up some dishes in the sink. You didn't think I just laid down and took 15 mins completely to myself, haha never! After the 15 minutes peel it off lightly rinse with water and pat dry.
Step Four: I have used a number of face creams over the years and I have found a few that I like but none that I have ever fallen madly in love with. But I have to say the Bel Air Skin Science Formula No.1 Lift + Sculpt cream has changed my skin. I love this cream so much, there are no perfumes, it's light, silky and keeps my skin hydrated all day.
I have to say these products are fantastic and the price points are great. I believe that skincare products should not cost an arm and a leg to be amazing. I would much rather spend that money on a date night with husband then on skincare products that will cost me hundreds of dollars and leave me divorced for spending hundreds of dollars on skincare products, haha. Plus you can pick up most of these products at Ulta and online so you can have them all delivered right to your doorstep. So click on the links and check out these amazing products.

Since it has now been over three months, we thought it would be appropriate for an update here on the blog. Yikes. 2017 has been a year of changes for us, but it has been exciting and gratifying. At the beginning of the year, we converted over to a full-service design firm and it has brought a variety of opportunities and wonderful client relationships. We have some exciting projects in the works that we will update more on very soon...can't wait to share! We can however, share a more personal project we are breaking ground on today. For years, we have dreamed of designing and owning our own rentals and after months of planning, we have finally decided there is no better time then now. We are finally doing it...we are building an ADU!
We have already started the preliminary architecture and design on our "little house" and we are quite excited about it. Since the rental will be on our property, it will be our most personal project to date. We will be treating it as a design testing grounds for a larger and even MORE personal project coming soon, our house. The "little house" will be the first in a series of many projects on our property. You know us, we are huge dreamers and we love buying homes that need (a lot of) love. So here's a little peek of what is inspiring this new, and very personal project!
The building will be small (approx. 400 sq/ft) but our goal is to pack it with a ton of character. The plan is to keep the shape simple, much like the architecture of our house and add character with materials and architectural detailing...think smooth stucco siding with deep window wells on a simplistic, slightly modern shape.
We absolutely love Belgian and European farmsteads with their series of disconnected or semi connected buildings. We do not live on a farm...actually quite far from it, but our property is larger than most in Portland and we always dream about owning farmland. Our thoughts are this, since we are unable to live in the country right now, we will bring the farm (and country vibe) to us! Our setup will be on a smaller scale, but similar in vibe. We absolutely love the idea of multiple structures that surround a general courtyard, it's intimate and inviting.
For the inside, we want warm, humble, natural materials with a slightly modern aesthetic. We want to try our hand at frameless oak doors (major swoon) and custom iron collar ties that will show off the vaulted ceilings and plasterwork.
Again. More natural materials and warmth. We are currently obsessed with customizing a monolith sink (coined and inspired by one of our current clients *wink *wink) similar to the one above. We may have to crane it in and build it in place, but anything for the sake of design! Since the space is smaller, we have made the layout fit as a studio, but with all the amenities of a home. We have a small kitchen designed that will be packed with functionality and yes, aesthetics.
We are excited to finally start on this project and can't wait to source and create the unique pieces to fill the space. Our hope is that we will be done by spring 2018 (fingers crossed). We can't wait to share this project with everyone! Look for more updates on our Instagram and stories.
