Mountain Goat Mountain Goat - Pool Blue Unisex Zip-up Hoodie
Product Details
- Original artwork drawn and silk screened in Calgary AB, Canada
- Tri-Blend Fleece (50% Polyester / 37% Cotton / 13% Rayon)
- Garment made in USA
Haha! This one is very silly. I was having trouble figuring out just what I wanted my mountain goat design to say and look like, and the boyfriend and I came up with this solution. Mountain goats everywhere! With the words "mountain goat" repeated underneath for each one drawn. But why stop there! Why not throw in a single mountain sheep (with the different word to match!) just to be silly. And also print the design on the back, but it'll just be all mountain goats this time! Ridiculous! And awesome!
Printed on a Pool Blue Unisex Tri-Blend Fleece Zip-up Hoodie (50% polyester, 37% cotton, 13% rayon). The softest, warmest, comfiest, best fitting hoody out there!
This is a Unisex hoodie, which I sell pretty equally to guys and gals. The sizes listed are Unisex ones. For the guys, it is a slimmer fitting sweater, so if you like a pretty snug fit, go with your regular size, however if you like a bit more room to move about in, I might suggest going up a size. For ladies, go a size down for a snug fit, your normal size for a looser fit.
Machine wash cold, tumble dry low. Because there's polyester and rayon in the fabric, it will not shrink at all when put in the dryer! I use water-based inks for all my prints, which are great because they sink right into the fabric instead of sitting on the surface. So they won't crack or fade, but just get softer with each wash until you can't even feel them!

If you noticed in yesterday's blog dedicated to the The Morning Call ad for the war film God Is My Co-Pilot had an image of three separate movies on it. And yet, we didn't have a chance to address the other films visible in the same image. Today, we would like to discuss the headliner: It's In The Bag. There are others, though, including the compellingly titled Escape In The Fog. Maybe tomorrow....
It's In The Bag is a comedy starring Fred Allen as the ringmaster of a flea circus who is on the hunt for five chairs, odd though that sounds. After the death of his eccentric grand-uncle, it was discovered that he may have hidden his massive fortune in one of those chairs, which had been sold off before anyone knew their potential value. So, the hunt was on. Those who have had the opportunity to see It's In The Bag tend to regard it as a favorite, with unexpected cameos and wacky humor. The story was lifted from the book The Twelve Chairs (I guess twelve was too many for them to deal with), and was remade by Mel Brooks in 1970.
QUESTION: By 1945, one actor had become so prolific with screen interpretations of real people that Fred Allen joked he would eventually play himself in a movie. It's In The Bag became that movie. Who was the actor?
A) Don Ameche
B) John Carradine
C) Jack Benny
D) William Bendix
WHAT SORT OF DAY WAS IT? It was April 16, 1962, when Walter Cronkite first appeared behind the desk as the lead anchor on the CBS Evening News. Almost twenty years later, in 1981, he retired. During that time, he became one of the most trusted men in the United States - a heady title indeed for a man int he news media. In fact, the first day he publicly expressed disdain for the Vietnam War, President Lyndon Johnson claimed that, if he had lost the support of Cronkite, he lost the support of Middle America. It seems unlikely that we will ever have another newscaster with impeccable credentials and universal respect, but we must never say never.
WOODY'S DAUGHTER. Today, we celebrate the birth of an all-but-forgotten presidential child. Woodrow Wilson, our 28th president, (oddly) named her after himself: Margaret Woodrow Wilson. Born today in 1886 by Wilson's first wife Ellen, she performed the duties of First Lady during the brief interim before he remarried to Edith Bolling. Margaret would eventually move to India, where she died in her 57th year. There are those who would claim that she kinda looked like her dad, too....
QUOTE: There is no such thing as a little freedom. Either you are free, or you're not free. - Walter Cronkite
ANSWER: A) Don Ameche. This one was a little tough, since Ameche, Benny and Bendix did in fact all play themselves. But Ameche is the man Allen made the joke about during one of his radio show performances.

An Estate Agent who's having a busy long weekend with the family can't wait to go back to work on Tuesday so she can get back to doing nothing again.
Sales Negotiator Theresa Connell has struggled to recover from the last Bank Holiday, and was shocked to find another one arriving so quickly.
Theresa said: "These long weekends do me in, I'd rather be in the office doing nothing and getting paid for the privilege.
"Lots of my friends who have real jobs dread Mondays, I don't. Being in work is complete and utter chill, it's my days off that are hard work.
She continued: "We always have to 'do something' and keep the kids 'entertained', I'm just not used to it. I spend most of my week complaining about the job I have, which is quite well paid for the amount of work I don't do.
"Sometimes people ask me to try and sell houses, but we leave that for the self employed ones who rely on the commission. Why can't family life be a bit more like that?
"We don't need to make much effort, what people don't realise is that people need houses to live in anyway, so really they just need someone to unlock the doors. Most of the time we get the owners to do that for us.
"The rest of the time is spent having Bake Off competitions. People get all concerned about NHS staff all the time, they don't think of people like me who are the real backbone of our economy."

Uncommon Article Gives You the Facts on Express.jsProgramming That Only a Few People Know Exist
The Application Life cycle Management aids the team members to collaborate with one another to make sure a high excellent product in time. Possessing a simple understanding of MongoDB will aid you with the Database chapter. You ought to have basic understanding of Javascript and HTML. Before proceeding with this tutorial, you ought to have a simple comprehension of JavaScript. A suitable comprehension of both practical and algebraic kind of the issue is necessary in such instances. The objective of programming is to make a program that could exhibit a particular behavior. That means you can review it and also review the tasks to produce a quote.
The online network is the thing that allows our communication services to work, and most of us use that, probably every single day. If you subcontract SDK programming please be positive you have access to source code as it'll be necessary in future recompilations 3. Programming is part of Software Engineering. Learning C programming via internet is among the most typical practices today. There are various types of programming languages accessible to create programs but no matter what language is used, these instructions are translated into machine language that may be understood by computers. It is likely to happen since it's already a well-known programming language utilized by developers in browsers.
If you're good at math you will have the ability to solve day to day problems easily. Math is simple if you let it be so. Math becomes very easy when you quit hating it. So far as your approach is concerned, you shouldn't ever try to learn math.
The 5-Minute Rule for Express.js Programming
Dealing with the very first problem is tougher. You should handle this problem once possible. In case you have questions, don't hesitate to comment. Don't neglect to comment in case you have any questions! You might not have any idea about what goes on behind the scenes with this kind of programming. You can't ever be too prepared! It's possible to always seek the help of your pals.
The Hidden Truth on Express.js Programming
Such requests happen whenever you have zero route to deal with the requested resource. After the application is operating, you will observe a console popping up. In many cases, it may need to make a call to a REST service to retrieve relevant information. Frameworks can be exceedingly useful, but it doesn't necessarily signify that it is going to be handy for you. Go through each framework and see whether it aligns with what you wish to achieve before you commence utilizing it. At this two-hour meeting you are able to demo your projects, ask extra questions or only speak about the future of Node.js.
Ultimately, it's the developer's decision on whether to use a framework. It helps the developer to deploy the application right to the server rather than deploying to a stand-alone server. Overall, the developers can combine AngularJS and Grails in numerous ways. On the whole, they can use Express to avail a number of useful features, while taking advantage of NodeJS. Most developers utilize various JavaScript frameworks to lessen the development time and efforts significantly.
All the code for the internet client is in the customer folder. Such code is normal in applications that will need to make additional API or database requests. Since you can see in the above mentioned code, we've used Bootstrap and jQuery files from CDN. The great thing is that we don't need to update our NodeJS code to make this happen. You are going to want to do this so the source code in 1 project does not seem in the IntelliSense of another undertaking.
From a user perspective, it's the navigational functionality in an internet application. Because of a feature named Automatic Type Acquisition you as a user don't have to fret about these type declaration files. It is far better utilise an internet server to earn AngularJS requests, which means you will want to configure your server accordingly.

Authenticity often means making mistakes.
Grayson Perry, The Guardian, 16 June 2012.
Last weekend, I sent a tweet: "Hopefully at some point this summer I will manage to get out of my own head. Intact. That'd be nice." It feels like it's been a summer of questioning, of "Who am I, what's my purpose in life?"-ing: of getting lost going round and around in my own head without getting any further towards working a way out. It's frustrating, feeling like you're continuously getting it wrong, being cranky with yourself and the poor unfortunates around you who you trust enough to think out-loud at, and then that feels like you're getting it even more wrong, and it just becomes a spiral of getting-it-wrong-ness until you really wish that 'cognative recalibration' was a real thing and that Natasha Romanoff would come and kick you upside the head to knock you out of it.
I came across the above quotation in my notebook soon after. I can't remember what the piece was about, but it connects in my mind with Perry's Tomb of the Unknown Craftsman exhibition at the British Museum, which was partially about an exploration of what makes us tick and acknowledging that the 'frivolous now' is as much a part of our authenticity as our 'great pasts'. The phrase, 'Wear your beliefs lightly,' echoed through that exhibition, not requesting fickleness but requiring a lack of rigidity and the willingness to question.
It's a good thought. We're obsessed with failure - or with not failing - in the UK (at least). We talk a lot of talk about how failing makes you strong, because you can learn from it, but we don't talk about how you learn from it and how you live with it and through it. Frankly, it's amazing we're not all drunk all of the time trying to forget all our screw-ups.
I've just finished reading David Shields' work, Reality Hunger (of which, maybe more at a later date - it has produced all sorts of thoughts in my brain), and he has two passages that echo this:
Conventional fiction teaches the reader that life is a coherent, fathomable whole... Life, though - standing on a street corner, channel surging, trying to navigate the web or a declining relationship, hearing that a close friend died last night - flies at us in bright splinters (§ 319)
Life isn't about saying the right thing, life is about failing. It's about letting the tape play out. (§ 154)
So I know this in my head (I know a lot of things in my head. A lot of it is basically only useful for pub quizzes), and I work head-first - but how do I actually let this breathe as a part of how I do life? How do I live with the fact that trying to live fully, truly in my character and my beliefs, entails making mistakes as I work it out. And how do I live with those mistakes - without simply brushing them off as irrelevant or not-me-being-mistaken? I mean, beyond re-writing these lines in my notebook every time I feel like I've frakked up?
I'm not sure - but there's another line that has echoed through this summer in the UK, and I think that spending some time with it and the lines that follow might help. At least the more we remind ourselves of all of this, the more likely it is to become a part of how we approach life, right? Even if it takes a long time.
"Be not afeard; the isle is full of noises,
Sounds, and sweet airs, that give delight and hurt not.
Sometimes a thousand twangling instruments
Will hum about mine ears; and sometime voices
That, if I then had waked after long sleep,
Will make me sleep again; and then in dreaming,
The clouds methought would open, and show riches
Ready to drop upon me, that when I waked
I cried to dream again."
- Caliban, The Tempest, III.ii.130-138
I spent sometime thinking about this last week, when I was away at a festival. I feel like these noises: the tensions, the mistakes and the pain are the signs of authenticity - of trying to live a real and honest life. Of someone willing to keep being vulnerable and trying to be part of something bigger than just themselves; willing to let the 'insubstantial pageant' fade, the temples and the globe dissolve as they change and we move onwards; willing to be Caliban, to be vulnerable, raw, hurt and confused, rather than seeking to be Prospero, the ruler and manipulator. The noises and the voices provide the dreams that we have to work out how to live with and make real out of the confusion - and sometimes the difficulty and pain of that, and our failures, make us weep and rage - like Caliban.
I was thinking about it at a Christian festival - and I ended up at a further reflection. In The Tempest Prospero doesn't give either Caliban or Ariel the freedom to find their way through their isle of noises themselves. He is the god of the island. They get it when he leaves - but he is either a controlling presence or a total absence. I believe that God isn't like that. I believes He gives us the freedom to find our way in our isle of noises, offering guidance, but not control. Although sometimes picking that guidance up out of all the other noises is as frustrating as anything else.
A slight jump, to get to something that might help with making sense of the noises.
Neil Armstrong died today. It saddened me in a way many 'famous' deaths don't, and the world feels a little smaller - like it's lost a really specific view of itself in him. Anyway, I watched The Dish. If you've not seen it, do, it is a delight and a joy that captures the awe and the humanity of the moon-landings. It has this exchange in it:
Cliff: Do you know what I thought when this first came up?
Glenn: What, your pipe?
Cliff: No. The moon mission.
Glenn: You beauty?
Cliff: I thought, imagine stuffing that up. Isn't that odd?
Glenn Latham: What?
Cliff: Well, that I was more scared than excited.
Glenn: I don't think that's odd, I feel like that all the time. (beat) How come you changed?
Cliff: My wife said something. She said, "Failure is never quite so frightening as regret."
The Dish
Maybe that should be tattooed on the underside of our eyelids.
Life flies at us in bright splinters. Sometimes they stab. Sometimes they sparkle.

Oracle carpet cleaning Brisbane || Event cleaning Brisbane
It's a New Year coming up and that means it is time for New Year's resolutions. Is this the year you stop that bad habit of yours or workout more or drink less caffeine? Maybe 2019 is the year to try a new hobby or learn a new skill? Or maybe 2019 is the year to focus on your home and your carpet.
Here are a few Carpet Cleaning Nundah Resolutions to help maintain the quality and beauty of your carpet and protect your investment throughout 2019:
No Shoes Indoors
Often times, the biggest threat to your floor and carpet isn't what's in your home, but rather what's outside of it. Do your best to keep dirt and contaminants from entering your house and reaching your carpet in 2019 by requiring that family and guests remove their shoes before entering the main area or any carpeted areas of your home.
It's estimated that shoes are responsible for 60% of the dust, carcinogens and pesticides brought into a home.
Another recommendation to help keep the dirt out is to purchase door mats for all the entrances of your home. If you are uncomfortable with requesting that guests remove their shoes before entering your house, at the very least they can be sure to scrape the bottom of their shoes on your new door mats.
Vacuum More
Do you have a set vacuuming routine? You should. Vacuuming is the easiest and most efficient way to maintain the quality of your carpet. It is recommended that you vacuum heavier traffic areas at least once a day, medium traffic areas at least twice a week and low traffic areas at least once a week.
Vacuuming helps prevent soils from penetrating deep into the carpet fibers and wearing down the fibers in the process.
Go Green
Did you know that soaps and chemicals for cleaning carpet can be part of the problem instead of part of the solution? Soap left behind in carpet will attract clusters of soil and dirt, while chemicals can be abrasive to the carpet fibers and cause health problems for you, your children and your pets that are closer to the carpet surface.
There are several safe alternatives to store-bought chemicals and soap you can use in 2019 to clean your carpet, including water, white vinegar and club soda. You should see the same results with no risk to damaging your carpet or putting your health in danger.
Professional Carpet Cleaning
It's recommended that you have your carpets cleaned by a professional at least once, if not twice, every 12 months. Carpet cleaning professionals have the tools and experience to remove tough stains and clean deep into the carpet fibers.
Be sure to hire a carpet cleaner in Nundah that uses no harsh chemicals or soap in their process, like Oracle carpet cleaning Nundah. Excessive soap and water used by traditional steam cleaners can lead to mold growth and other allergens in your carpet.
Oracle carpet cleaning Brisbane uses 80% less water than steam cleaners and no chemicals, resulting in cleaner and healthier carpets that are dry within hours instead of days.

Don't forget about the chance to win Papertrey Ink's Background Basics: Retro. Get the details here.
Well this was a fun challenge from There She Goes is having a going away party. For some of their designers. The challenge is to go into the gallery of some of the trendsetters and case a card. Well I have already done a card from Stephaine and I loved it, so I went to look at Wendy's gallery. Here is the fabulous card I worked from. I just got my first set from There She Goes, so I will have new stamps for the last 2 trendsetters cases.
I am still into bright colors after Dawn's color challenge, so I stayed bright. I also didn't have the cuttlebug folder that Wendy used on her card, but I really liked the texture on the bottom so I whipped out my scor pal. I changed the stamp also.
This cupcake is from the Everyday Classics stamp set that is a limited edition set from Papertrey Ink. The only way you can get it is by purchasing 12 stamp sets the year before. Well since it is PTI, I had no problem with that. This set is my favorite of the moment for sure. I also added a little bling to the cherries as well. This card is for a May birthday, so I think it will be perfect.
It's a good life!

"I had the pleasure of having a reading with Jaime twice now and both times she just blew me out the park! She is so accurate it almost scares me how much she knows without you having to mention anything to her. Not only is she a dead on accurate psychic, but she is someone who truly cares about her clients. She is so understanding and helpful and will only tell you what she picks up not what you want to hear! I can firmly say that she is one of the best I have spoken to and this definitely will not be the last. She is trust worthy reliable and the real deal. Jamie you are so blessed and thank you for receiving the messages for me from my special someone! Thank you!"

- Global stocks steady, dollar rallies, as investors return to Asia risk markets.
- China's central bank fixes yuan at lowest level since August 2017.
- Oil recovers after worst single-day session in more than two years, but demand questions remain amid trade war concerns.
- European stocks post modest gains as euro weakens; Sky shares surge after improved bid from Comcast amid battle for Fox with Disney.
- U.S. equity futures suggest a stronger open on Wall Street, with a 105-point gain the Dow; benchmark 10-year Treasury yields hold at 2.856%.
Market Snapshot
Global stocks regained some poise in overnight trading, even as the U.S. dollar continued to find favor among investors still rattled by trade war rhetoric and President Donald Trump's haranguing of NATO allies in Brussels, setting up the potential for a solid opening on Wall Street.
The dollar index, which tracks the greenback against a basket of six global currencies, gained 0.6% in overnight trading to change hands at 94.71, a ten-day high, as investors retreated from a softer euro and a weaker Chinese yuan amid defensive trading flows.
The yuan, in fact, was fixed at close to the lowest rate in a year by the People's Bank of China today, suggesting authorities might be quietly using the currency to offset the impact of both the $34 billion in announced U.S. tariffs and the list of $200 in China-made goods the White House may hit with fresh levels later this year.
With the dollar's gains pushing the regional currencies lower, particularly the yen, stocks in Asia were able to book decent gains, with the Nikkei 225 in Japan rising 1.17% to close at 22,187.96 points while the region-wide MSIC Asia ex-Japan index gained 0.54%. The weaker yuan ignited a bounceback in China stocks, too, with the bluechip CSI300 leaping 2.45% while the Shanghai Composite rose 2.35%.
Stocks and commodities recover after latest trade war jolt as investors re-risk their portfolios. Bonds a tad weaker w/ US 10y yields at 2.86%, 10y Bund yields at 0.36%.

Early indications from U.S. equity futures suggest a positive opening for Wall Street, following last night's sharp trade war-led declines, with contracts tied to the Dow Jones Industrial Average
European stocks were also higher, owing in part to the softer euro, which fell to 1.1675 against the U.S. dollar following a series of disappointing data reads for the region's economy, with the Stoxx 600 rising 0.69% in the opening 90 minutes of trading to 383.95 points.
Sky plc (SKYAY) shares were a notable early market mover, rising more than 2.9% at the opening bell to £15.238 each after Comcast Corp. (CMCSA) improved its bid for Europe's biggest pay-TV group to £14.75 a share last night, topping the last bid £14 per share bid yesterday from 21st Century Fox Corp. (FOXA) .
Wonder what Disney (DIS) thinks of this battle. Comcast is a holding in Jim Cramer's Action Alerts PLUS.
Global oil prices also rebounded after the biggest one-day slide in more than two years yesterday, with investors snapping up cheap crude ahead of today's reading of domestic stockpiles from the Energy Information Administration.
Brent crude contracts for September delivery, the global benchmark, were seen $1.05 higher from Wednesday's New York close and changing hands at $74.45 in early European trading. WTI contracts for August delivery, which are more tightly linked to U.S. gasoline prices, were seen 73 cents higher at $71.11 per barrel.

Ohio.com correspondent
STOW: Stow City Council appointed resident Rosalie Schur to the Commission on Disabilities.�
Schur will be filling the position of Michelle Hasenstaub who recently resigned from her position with the commission.�
Council Vice President John Pribonic thanked Shur for joining this commission. "With your expertise and knowledge you will be a great asset," Pribonic said.�
Thirty-seven years ago Schur experienced a life changing moment when her 16-year-old son was injured in a dirt bike accident.
"My whole life changed in 45 minutes," Shur said.
Schur's son was severely injured in the accident and is now disabled.�
Schur was working towards a degree in business from The University of Akron at the time of her son's accident, but was inspired to become a social worker after his accident.�
Schur said that she ran into so many people who were not willing to assist or really understand people with disabilities. She said that experience made her become proactive� and led her to become a social worker.�
Schur said she was very happy to be appointed to the commission.
"This position means a great deal to me because I can represent so many that can not represent themselves," Schur said.�
Schur said one of the goals of the commission is to create awareness within the community about people living with disabilities.�
The Commission on Disabilities is hoping to inform the community about the upcoming beauty competition, Ms. Wheelchair USA.�
The 2013 Nationals Competition for Ms. Wheelchair USA will be held from July 16-20 in Northeast Ohio.
Last summer, 14 women from across the country were welcomed into the City of Stow by Mayor Sara Drew and stayed at Staybridge Suites, while competing for the crown at Cuyahoga Falls High School for the ninth annual National Ms. Wheelchair USA contest.
Once again this year, women from across the country will compete for the crown in the tenth annual Ms. Wheelchair USA at Cuyahoga Falls High School.�
Ms. Wheelchair USA encourages contestants to be proud of their beauty and be confident in showing the world their personal and glamorous style -- in their own way.
Contestants are not judged by the typical beauty pageant standards. Instead, they are encouraged to be proud of who they are, be proud that they are women and be confident in showing the world their personal style.
"This year we hope to fill the whole auditorium," Schur said.

Countdown to vacationland.
August has arrived and we can start counting down the days until we embark on our (much needed) summer vacation. Many things need to be arranged prior to leaving, like who's going to watch our pup and stay in our house, lining up guest bloggers while I'm away (do Mexican resorts provide wi-fi?), making sure work doesn't hate me for leaving them for an entire week, and of course, what to wear on our warm exotic getaway. I'm definitely a planner and a to-do lister so I'm starting my lists early (27 days early). I've also added Cabo San Lucas to my iphone weather app, I like to compare weather differences from here and Mexico and then day dream about how tan I'm going to be after laying out poolside and drinking fruity slushy cocktails for a week. After we return, it's going to be the start of some crazytown (brother's) wedding/(baby shower) party planning/more trip taking and other shenanigans so I'm really looking forward to a week of relaxing nothingness. Let the countdown begin!

Winter Olympics: Majdic out for season with 4 broken ribs
By MATTIAS KAREN
AP Sports Writer
WHISTLER, British Columbia Slovenian cross-country skier Petra Majdic is out for the season with four broken ribs and a collapsed lung, injuries she sustained before her bronze-medal performance in the individual classical sprint.
Majdic crashed during training before Wednesdays sprint, falling on a sharp curve and tumbling off the course, then sliding on her back down a three-meter slope and onto some rocks.
On Friday, the Slovenian team said it has filed a protest with Olympic organizers arguing there was not enough protection in place to prevent such accidents.
We think that the course was not technically correct, Slovenian team spokesman Branislav Dimitrovic told The Associated Press on Friday. It was not protected in the right places.
He said the Slovenian delegation was not currently considering a lawsuit against the Vancouver organizers, but did not rule out future legal action.
Maybe when we get home, well talk to our lawyers and see what can be done, he said.
After her fall, Majdic insisted on competing. She completed her qualification lap about an hour later, skiing with her face twisted in pain and then crumpled to the snow, before she was helped out of the finish area. She was taken to a nearby clinic to check for broken bones but was cleared to compete. Dimitrovic said the fractures were missed in an ultrasound scan.
Dimitrovic said the 30-year-old Majdic was unaware of the severity of her injuries until after the event, when she went to a hospital, where she remains.
He said she might be able to return to the athletes village Saturday. She will not be able to fly home for at least another week.
These are serious injuries, Dimitrovic said. The Olympics, and the whole season is finished.
The 30-year-old Majdic had been one of the favorites for the 30K classical race on Feb. 27.
Majdic has been hailed as a hero back home, and the countrys President Danilo Turk said he will give her a medal of honor when she returns.
Dimitrovic said he wasnt surprised that Majdic could battle through the pain.
I know Petra very well, and shes a champion, he said. And she demanded, despite her injury, to be taken to the start line.

Close of Barcelona lies a small town called Sabadell, home to a really rather fine college (or so I'm informed), some really nice old buildings and the sort of local life you just don't see in the city itself. Sabadell is also home to Companion Denim, owned and masterminded by Iu Franquesa. As I was in town for WPPD, I decided to contact Iu (who had previously made a pair of custom cotton duck jeans for me) to see if he'd be willing to be photographed by me. Iu graciously agreed, and here are the results.
For a while now I have wanted to make pictures of people who make things by hand. In part this is inspired by Tim Allen's Artisans project and I really should acknowledge the influence this has had in my work here.
Those that know me will also know of my strong interest in fashion, particularly denim and heritage workwear. I'm hoping this shoot with Companion Denim will be a stepping stone to shoots with other similar companies. I have a few ideas of who I want to work with, I guess I just need to ask them.
Iu fabricates his products with some relatively old machines, including the holy grail, a 1930s Union Special for cable stitching hems. Talking of the Union Special, I watched Iu hem a pair of jeans using this machine, which took maybe 5-10 minutes. A modern machine could do the same job in very short order. Modern speed is not necessarily a good thing, a lot of the character of the hem comes from the roping that the Union Special induces.
For one, the quality is sure to drop when things are done quickly, and if you want a product to last that's not a good thing. It also means a drop in employment, efficiency might mean profit and cheaper goods, but it means less work and less wages. I guess we have a choice to make, I will continue to support this kind of product versus the mass produced.
I also am getting increasingly interested in mixing the styles and media I use for a project. This can already be see in The Edge of the World, and it seems like a natural progression to be agnostic to technique here.
For Iu, this meant being surround by a tripod, pinhole camera, lens-based film camera and a digital compact, all competing for his and his studio's attention. Personally, I like the results this mix of techniques has given me, but I'd really like to know what you think so please do comment below.
I should end with giving huge thanks to Iu for putting up with me for a couple of hours, for making coffee and being generally patient. I greatly enjoyed my time with him, and, having seen his work at first hand, would really recommend you check out Companion Denim if you're looking for a new pair of jeans.
As a final note, all of the film images were made using Kodak Portra 400. I had a brief dalliance with Fuji Pro 400H but really my heart lies with Portra and the wonderful colour palette. Lighting in Iu's workshop was pretty mixed so some of the colour in the scans could have been a little odd. As always though, UK Film Lab did a wonderful job with my images...I cannot recommend them highly enough either.

US TV show Veep leaves Australia MP in stitches
An Australian MP has found to his cost that an outburst of laughter does not sit well with a mouthful of food.
Graham Perrett laughed so hard while watching an episode of the US political satire Veep that he choked on his sushi, knocked himself out and fell against a kitchen top.
The federal Labor MP, who represents Moreton in Queensland, was left with a black eye and three stitches.
He was later consoled on Twitter by the stars of the TV show.
Mr Perrett's mishap last Sunday was first reported in the Strewth column of The Australian newspaper.
It said the MP praised medical staff who looked after him but was worried that some voters might be put off by his appearance.
"I'm losing votes every time I show my face," he told the newspaper.
Mr Perrett later told BBC 5 Live that he had just laughed at the wrong time.
"It is a pretty funny show. Some rice went down my airway and I started coughing and choking and laughing at the same time," he said.
"I ran out of the room, I think I hit a wall and then the kitchen island with a granite top. My wife came in and I was on the floor. I was knocked out for a second or so and there was blood everywhere.
"She took me up the hospital. I was in a lot of pain but I was laughing as well. It was just one of those bizarre accidents."
Veep actress Julia Louis-Dreyfus was among the stars and writers who responded on Twitter, which delighted Mr Perrett.
"I hate to say it is my political highlight but I do feel like just dropping the microphone and walking away after Julia Louis-Dreyfus responded to my tweet and wished me well," he joked.
It is not the first time the hit TV series has inadvertently made its way into Australian politics.
Last year Australian Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull campaigned under the slogan "continuity and change" - strikingly similar to that used by a presidential hopeful in an earlier season of Veep.
The show's creators expressed shock at the coincidence.

Berry Rose Water Popsicles
Can one ever go wrong with berries in a recipe? Me thinks not. Berry is a pretty universally liked flavor, plus they're packed with antioxidants, fiber and pair well with tons of different herbs. Popsicles are kind of a fun snack in a flash to have stored away in your freezer and can even be a healthy way to eat your produce if you're making them at home. This recipe uses blackberries and a few wineberries with mint and rose water. The rosewater works as a scent based flavor enhancer/sweetener....kind of in the way vanilla does. Example: anything vanilla scented or flavored automatically makes me think it's sweeter...even if the nutrition label shows it's not.
Side note: I look at this blog post and all I can think of is Berry, the devious strawberry from Cloudy With A Chance of Meatballs 2 (which has gorgeous story boards and illustrations). I basically am a six year old because I think that movie is awesome. Also, I'm dying to see the Lego Movie.
Blackberry Rose Water Popsicles
makes 4 zoku pops
/// Ingredients ///
- 1 cup black berries
- 2 cups raspberries or wineberries (used in this recipe but difficult to find in stores)
- 1/2 cup simple syrup made with 1/2 monk fruit and 1/2 table sugar
- 1/2 T rose water
- 1/8 cup packed mint leaves
/// Directions /// Purée all ingredients in a blender and spoon into popsicle molds. Freeze 6 hours.

Parenting is a mixed bag of complicated and often overwhelming emotions. For the first time in your life, you are no longer responsible for yourself alone, and now have a whole other person to be thinking about. Of course, though, you will quickly learn how much harder it is to look after a person which you can't control. Even in the places where they should be safest, there could be loads of hidden risks. To help you out with this, this post will be exploring the modern home, revealing the areas which you may want to consider adapting to keep your children as safe as can be.
The Kitchen:
Holding the highest concentration of blades in the house, being home to the cooker, and often having large pieces of furniture, the kitchen holds the top spot for the most dangerous room in most homes. Thankfully, when you're children are very young, they won't be able to reach most of the surfaces and certainly won't have access to high cupboards. Of course, though, there isn't much point in taking chances. Securing cupboards is nice and easy, with loads of companies making child security locks which can be applied without changing the appearance of the space.
While they can't reach the worktops from the floor, they will still be able to find ways up there, even if it means moving a chair or two when mom and dad are out of the room. To prevent accidents, keeping knives locked away is a good plan, along with avoiding leaving the cooker on or the kettle filled with water. It's very unlikely that your child will hurt themselves with any of these components. But, the risk is there, and this means that it should be wiped out. As with any room, you should also consider the risk your furniture could present in the kitchen.
The Living Room:
Unlike the kitchen, the living room doesn't present a huge list of risks, with most of the concerns involving small falls from furniture like the sofa. To avoid this sort of accident, you should always be there to keep an eye on the little ones. Along with this, a lot of modern TVs are very prone to falling, too. To keep it from landing on your kids, it is worth using strong VESA mounts which will keep it securely mounted to the wall, but you can find more information on sites like https://www.oneforall.com/what-is-vesa if you're not convinced.. These devices are very heavy and could hurt someone as little as a child.
The Bathroom:
Not a lot of people think about their bathroom when they are considering safety. If you've ever stood on wet tiles or laminate flooring, though, you will probably have an idea of the risks which come with this space. Slipping over on a hard floor, while surrounded by hard objects, is very dangerous, and could result in some nasty injuries. This makes it worth looking into a company like https://kitchensacramento.com/bathroom-remodeling/ to help you to change this area to make it more suitable for kids. Of course, you should always supervise when young children are using the bath.
As the last room to consider, it's time to think about where kids tend to spend most of their time; their bedroom. The dangers in this space will vary from house to house, with electricity being one of the only universal concerns. Thankfully, covering plug sockets can be done nice and cheaply, and you can look into having electronics tested to make sure that they aren't a risk. Along with power, you may also want to think about limiting the amount their windows can open, especially if you live very high up.
Along with the risks above, your kids will also have furniture to contend with in their bedroom. Nowadays, most pieces are provided with fixing kits which enable you to fasten your furniture to the walls. This will make it impossible for them to fall over, keeping your kids safe if they ever decide to have a climbing adventure. You can't rely on children to protect themselves from risks like this, as they won't often understand what they are doing, and won't have the experience to see what they are doing is silly.
With all of this in mind, you should be feeling ready to take on your home, making it to the safest possible place for your family. As time goes on, it will become easier and easier to achieve this goal, as technology improves to make the home into a truly safe space, but you have to cover it until that point.

Le Voile du Bonheur
Incidental Music to Le Voile du Bonheur is an unknown and unpublished work by Gabriel Fauré that is the basis of my research lecture given in 2016. A play by the statesman George Clemenceau, the piece was not always completely credited to Fauré. The research lecture includes 'scene changes' of film from the Universal Exhibition of 1901, and poetry by Baudelaire between each section of the lecture. The video below cycles through images of costume drawings from the first performance of the play in 1901 at the Renaissance Theatre in Paris. My essay and research lecture is the basis for a co-authored chapter in a forthcoming Cambridge Press publication entitled Fauré Studies with Dr Carlo Caballero.
This newly discovered work will also be the basis of The Green Room Artists first concert at eTown Hall on March 23, 2018.

Despite the raging civil war to Israel's north and east in Syria, the Jewish state's northern border has remained precariously quiet over the last decade. No stranger to looming threats, Israeli officials are planning and ready for several worst-case scenarios in the north as Iran and its terror proxy Hezbollah continue to forge their stranglehold on the region, writes JNS.org's Adam Abrams.
Norway gives money to group funding BDS campaigns
Norway has joined Denmark, Sweden, Switzerland and the Netherlands in contributing funds to an organization funding NGOs that promote a boycott of the Jewish state, the watchdog group NGO Monitor reports.
In wake of World Vision scandal, aid groups lax with security
World Vision and other foreign aid organizations that have funneled millions of dollars to the terror group Hamas are directly responsible for the murder of scores of Israeli Jews, an Israeli legal expert contends. Nitsana Darshan-Leitner, president of Shurat HaDin Israeli legal center, warns that groups like World Vision cannot collect charity that ends up in the hand of terrorists "on the blood of the citizens of Israel."
Israeli defense minister: Israel won't allow Hamas to arm itself
A day after the Israel Defense Forces bombed a number of Hamas targets in the Gaza Strip in response to a rocket attack on the southern Israeli town of Sderot, Israeli Defense Minister Avigdor Lieberman warned that the Jewish state cannot allow the Hamas terror group to arm itself. Lieberman's caution comes just days after Hamas threatened to abduct Israeli soldiers on Sunday, showcasing two "prison cells" built especially for future Israeli captives. Meanwhile, in the West Bank, Israeli security forces also raided seven illegal Palestinian weapons mills in the Hebron and Bethlehem area on Monday night in the largest crackdown of its kind over the last year.
Will Temple Mount tensions yet again strain Israeli-Jordanian relations?
Jordan's King Abdullah II vowed to fight against repeated violations and attacks carried out by Israel and extremist groups on the Temple Mount complex, according to an interview in the Jordanian daily Ad-Dustour last week. The Jordanian king claimed that Israel was seeking to "Judaize" the holy site and was attempting to "violate the sanctity and compromise al-Aksa Mosque. These comments may signal a deepening strain in relations between Israel and Jordan, one of only two Arab states that has a peace treaty with the Jewish state.
Gaza takes back seat to PA-Hamas infighting and Islamic State threat
Since the declaration of a final cease-fire between Israel and Hamas last month, there has been very little movement to resolve the situation in Gaza. With the Middle East preoccupied by the threat of Islamic extremism as well as the growing rivalries between Arab states over how to handle these threats, there appears to be little appetite in the Arab world to deal with the Palestinian issue. "It is striking to me that even during [this summer's] Gaza war, you were seeing widespread demonstrations in Europe, but not in the Arab world," Elliott Abrams, who served as deputy national security advisor for President George W. Bush, told JNS.org.
Evangelical pastors from every U.S. state show solidarity with Israel at conflict's frontline
SDEROT—With only a short time to recover from their jet lag, a group of 51 Evangelical Christian pastors representing every U.S. state and the District of Columbia embarked on a journey to the frontline of the recent Gaza conflict as part of a three-day mission organized by Christians United For Israel (CUFI).
Censored by Facebook, journalist forges on as lonely dissenting Arab voice on PA
The Facebook page of Arab-Israeli journalist Khaled Abu Toameh was recently removed following complaints about his posts, which are highly critical of the Palestinian Authority and the Kingdom of Jordan. The award-winning journalist reflected on the incident in an interview with JNS.org. "The prevailing concept in the Arab World is that if you are not with us, you are against us," Abu Toameh said, adding that "a Palestinian journalist is expected to be loyal to the cause of Palestinian nationalism."
Journalist: Obama says 'Israel doesn't know what its own best interests are'
The same reports of tension between President Barack Obama and Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu that persisted leading up to November's U.S. election have re-emerged before Israelis head to the voting booth on Jan. 22. In an article for Bloomberg published Tuesday, journalist Jeffrey Goldberg—who is thought to have good access to the White House—wrote that in the weeks following the United Nations vote to give the Palestinians non-member state status, Obama said privately and repeatedly, "Israel doesn't know what its own best interests are."
Hagel on Israel—in letters
In his 2008 book, The Much Too Promised Land, Aaron David Miller recounted a conversation with President Barack Obama's reported defense secretary nominee Chuck Hagel as follows: "The American Israel Public Affairs Committee comes knocking with a pro-Israel letter, Hagel continued, and 'then you'll get eighty or ninety senators on it. I don't think I've ever signed one of the letters'—because, he added, they were 'stupid.'" Hagel, who served in the Senate from January 1997 to January 2009, was telling Miller the truth about his letter-signing history. JNS.org presents the highlights of letters signed by large majorities of the U.S. Senate, noting whether Hagel signed or not.
The Palestinian leadership's inconvenient truths
In recent years, the Palestinian leadership, often with the help of the mainstream media in the U.S. and Europe, has been successful in its effort to divert all attention only toward Israel. Khaled Abu Toameh, an Arab Muslim journalist who has been covering Palestinian affairs for nearly three decades, presents a list of 10 "inconvenient truths" that he says Palestinian leaders would prefer you not know.
Adviser to Egyptian president: 'Israel will be destroyed within a decade'
Dr. Essam el-Erian, a senior Muslim Brotherhood official and adviser to Egyptian President Mohamed Morsi, has called on Jews who left Egypt to return, as "Israel will be destroyed within a decade."
Peres stirs passions with optimistic take on PA's Abbas
Israeli President Shimon Peres ignited a controversy by expressing optimism about the Jewish state's relationship with Palestinian Authority (PA) President Mahmoud Abbas. "I have known Abu Mazen [Abbas] for 30 years and no one will change my opinion about him, even if they say that I can't express this opinion because I am president," Peres told a group of 160 Israeli ambassadors and diplomatic representatives from around the world Sunday.

Kerry on Israel—in letters
Where does U.S. Sen. John Kerry (D-MA), President Barack Obama's pick for Secretary of State, stand on foreign policy matters pertaining to Israel and the Middle East? JNS.org highlights 10 letters signed by large majorities of the U.S. Senate, noting whether Kerry signed or not.
Ariel becomes first Israeli university beyond Green Line
Israeli Defense Minister Ehud Barak gave the order on Monday to officially accredit Ariel University Center of Samaria as a full-fledged university, making it the first Israeli university to be located beyond the 1949 Green Line. The ruling "sends a clear message that Ariel will forever stay part of Israel," said Likud-Yisrael Beytenu Coalition Chairman MK Zeev Elkin.

The Ph.D. thesis begins with a general introduction of triplet photosensitisers and their role in Triplet-Triplet Annihilation Upconversion (TTA-UC). It gives a short literature review of the photophysical properties of different families of triplet photosensitisers, including Ru(II), Ir(III), Pt(II) and Pd(II) transition metal complexes, and compares their TTA-UC quantum yields and singlet oxygen photosensitisation capabilities. The aims of the research are explained along with the rationale behind the proposed new material designs. The work has three parts based on systematic molecular variants. Each part details the synthetic steps taken and gives a full structural and spectroscopic characterisation of the materials generated. i) Dinclear polyimine complexes of Ru(II) and Ir(III). These triplet photosensitsers showed stronger visible and near infrared absorption, and longer excited triplet lifetime than traditional mononuclear complexes. ii) Multi-chromophoric heteroleptic Ir(III) complexes. Here the choice of novel linker position on 2-phenylpyridine improved the properties of the triplet photosensitisers. iii) Preliminary exploration of practical applications of the materials. This includes a demonstration of their use in industrially relevant photopolymerisation processes. The thesis ends by summarising the over-riding conclusions based on the structure/property relationships established, puts the findings in context and sets out possible future directions for research in this field.

Harry Herbert hopeful Highclere can overcome tough going
Driving force behind syndicate attributes recent surge in interest to more positive news emerging from the economic slump
Racing's top tier of owners is historically immune to recessions but green shoots are now evident in the next tier down. Harry Herbert, the driving force behind Highclere Thoroughbreds, is sufficiently emboldened to syndicate the same number of yearlings as he put to his patrons last year.
As with 2008, 15 yearlings will be paraded before some 600 interested individuals at Highclere's annual gatherings this month. Herbert said that such numbers seemed inconceivable just three weeks ago, since when interest has mushroomed.
"We started selling shares in June," Herbert said, "and we found it pretty sticky. It got worse in August and early September, but that has changed. We are more optimistic now than we were a month ago."
Highclere's record is certainly an inducement.…

Okay, here's something a bit new. Last night it occurred to me that out of the few thousand hours of recorded sounds in my possession, a fair amount of it is no longer (or never has been) commercially available. Albums drift out of print, singles are seldom available for more than a couple of months, radio programmes rarely get commercial releases. So, thought I, with the site's new capacity to actually hold mp3s, why not share some of these with the world? It can't really be hurting anyone and should the writers/performers/copyright holders get in touch, I'll happily take anything down. As the 'One' in the title suggests, I'm hoping to do a few of these, so let's get cracking with the first non-pop pick.
Victor Lewis Smith – Process Music (click to listen (as if you hadn't guessed))
This recording comes from the end of the very first episode of Mr. Lewis Smith's 1990 Radio 1 series, which is why you get the end credits coming in a third of the way through. I would give out a credit to whoever made the original recording, but I have no idea as to who that may have been, let alone who then digitised it or who put the shows out there for download. Whoever you are, thank you. The moderately efficient work cutting it out of the show was done by me, using Audacity.
There are a number of reasons for this being the first thing I decided to run in this series, the major one being that it's been stuck in my head since I last listened to the complete radio shows a few months ago. It really is surprisingly catchy in the way that the music it's parodying seldom seems to be. The aspect of parody plays an integral part to it too – I do love a comedy song and find well written ones to be worthy of much relistening, long after I'm well aware of what the gag's going to be. Of course, you're never going to revreate that first frisson of amusement, but I still find a knowing smirk comforting (though that might just be the knowledge that it'll stave off the emptiness of my general existence for a few seconds). I'm personally quite fond of some process music – a bit of Glass or Nyman every once in a while is not a bad thing to these waxy old ears. I can still see the faults inherent in it though, having spent enough hours with musician friends bleating on about how extraordinarily boring it is to play and how stupidly simplistic a lot of it is when written down. I appreciate this, as does Victor as by now you've hopefully heard.
There was a fair amount of Smith performed music in the Radio 1 shows, most of which is surprisingly listenable – I might have to stick up one of his doo wop numbers in a later post, as the multi tracked harmonies (I assume that they're all him singing – no other musical credits are given, except in series two when Dave bloody Stewart rears his beardy head every episode and sours a few minutes of my pleasure) are actually quite beautiful. I never really watched much of his televisual output, but am aware of his annoying tendency to regularly recycle material from one medium to another, so wouldn't be surprised if it didn't turn up on TV Offal or somesuch at some time. There's no way of telling, as he's pretty much outlawed having any of his work up on YouTube anyway (hence my vague disclaimer in the first paragraph – please don't hurt me Meester Smeeth).
The other thing that I find fascinating about the piece is comparing it to Chris Morris' piece in the war episode of On The Hour ( apiece that I am very fond of, but won't be uploading as it is commercially available – go buy the box sets you cheap shitehawks). Much has been made of how similar the material both produced at the start of their broadcasting careers, often by Smith in (fairly justified rants) about Christopher stealing his routine. Morris' 'War Goes Bang' (for that is the name of the song in the episode) also spoofs process music, but not in as direct a way as Smith. He uses the tropes of the style of composition to comedic effect, but being as the song is about war (duh) the spoken gags are about the ill informed viewpoint of a composer who has never, and never will be, within two landmasses of any armed conflict. It's not a rip off of Smith's song (it appeared three or four years after the above was broadcast), but with the amount of animosity there was between the two at the time, it's intriguing to hear both their (piss) takes of the same thing.
I would nudge you towards the Associated Rediffusion (the home of most of Smith's current projects) site at this point, but it seems to be down for maintenance so here's his Wikipedia entry, should you be interested.
Addendum (added 5th June 2010) - Having had a quick check, it transpires that the above track is actually commercially available – you can down load it from Amazon. It's a different version to the one I have put up, being almost thirty seconds shorter, presumably as it misses out the weak Ned Sherrin impression for the credits. Anyway, the version I have up is slightly different, so I think I'm alright, but would still advise you to purchase a copy of 'Nyman', though I still think 'Process Music' is a better title.

The moon shone brightly tonight. A huge white disk in the sky offset by the black drapery of a starry sky. An eye watching all below it.
It was a fitting night, he decided.
Un-traditional black gloves hugged his fingers loosely, the hand not formally behind his back rubbing the smooth cobblestone of the windowsill. Nights like this were usually lonely for him, nothing but the chirping of crickets, hoots of lone owls, their beady yellow eyes asking the same question he always asked himself. Why you? "Why me indeed..." he mumbled with a snarl, nails biting through is gloves to the cobble. He'd grown to hate it, the sucking void, nothing but a black hole of the same routine. Night after night, always the same.
He was always alone.
He could never remember much of his old life; how he became this way. Was he born into this curse? Did a witch have a grudge against his family? Brooding eyes cast to the village, shadowed by his residence. They were always below, judging, so purely oblivious to the truth. Perhaps a rumor or two was true, but none of them knew the real story.
A banging echoed off the stone walls, permeating the wood of a heavy door. He sighed, rubbing his temples. Was she already this ancy? Heavy boots clicked against the stone floor, the rustle of a large cape billowing behind him. His approach would be so noticeable, had he not been unnaturally light on his feet. The irony always amused him.
"I'd suggest tonin' i' down in there," he said with a smirk, "Bad things happen tae noisy lasses."
A muffled whimper was his response, and he was sure she was crying. He made a face. Of course she would be, all of them did. He was a monster, after-all.
He had the door opened and shut before she had a chance to look, and her eyes were laced with fear. He was behind her though, his lips gently against her ear. A soft caress.
She stiffened and screeched against the tight cloth in her mouth, struggling against her bonds that kept her strapped to a chair. He could smell her salty tears, and his tongue had already snaked out, a mind of its own as it licked the tears from under one eye. He loved the pink that rose on her cheeks. She was so real, so radiant, so alive. It would have been more enjoyable, had it been real want. "Shhh....quiet lass..." he purred against her cheek, verdant eyes flashing up to a shaking pair. He knew what he did to women, it was natural for his kind. Easy seduction, easy prey; in story books since the beginning of time. But she was a fighter, this girl, unfortunately for her it only made her more appealing.
He heard the same muffled sentence against the cloth, one that she'd repeated ever since he'd locked her away here. It was incoherent, but he knew what it meant. "Please let me go." Why would he do that? So she could run screaming, escaping from the monster? Tell the rest of the village to come and burn him in his home?
No, Iain would have none of that.
"Nae." He said simply, casually. She made a sob of hopeless distress, making his pale lips pull back from his teeth.
Razor-sharp teeth.
"Ye should never have trespassed here lass...." he cooed, his fingers dancing up her side. "Maybe then ye could have gone home today..." That only made her sob more, but Iain's face hardened to a mask. He was used to the sobs, the pleads. His heart was hardened now. None of them cared about him. Why should he return the favor?
Because of the real monsters, this girl would die tonight.
A hiss slipped from his throat, hot breath hitting her neck. She only struggled more, thrashing like a caged animal, tears like a sprung leak. His lips slowly moved back into place, a look of distaste masking his features when he saw blood pouring from her wrist. She wanted to get away that bad...
He gave an angry snarl. "Stop tha', lass. It's nae going tae help y-" He was cut off by a shriek, and a skull-splitting glare. ....Heh. She sure had spunk, if nothing else.
"I. Said. STOP!" His pupils dialated, something inhuman. His roar made her jump back with wide eyes, and just like that, she was trembling again. He could hear her begging again, but his eyes were on something else. He bent to one knee, and with a flash, the rope holding one hand to the chair was cut. He gripped her wrist tightly, inhaling with pleasure as he pressed the wound to his lips. A different, fresh horror was in her eyes, but that didn't stop him. Half-lidded eyes met hers, smooth as butter, and his sucks against her wrist were slow, hot. The girl was finding it hard to think. This was his art, what he did best. The reason why he was hated.
He registered the moan from behind her cloth, and smirked. There was always pleasure for the victim, a war with their minds. They hated loving a monster sucking them dry. He usually found the confusion delightful to watch. His tongue expertly dragged over the cut, returning to his mouth in an instant, emerald eyes gleaming.
Save, they weren't emerald anymore. Red always frothed his eyes when he fed.
"Y-you can't do this....." He blinked in surprise. So she'd gotten the cloth off? Feisty girl. Iain always enjoyed them feisty. 'Oh?" He snaked up her body, too-close to not be intimate, but far too menacing to be loving. "Tell me why I can't." He licked his lips, leaning in until only a hairs-width separated their skin. She was so flushed, so red. So afraid.
"I...I didn't....mean to...." her words were dead on her tongue as she stared into his eyes. Just like all the rest. He made an appreciate purr. "Come intae a monster's house, an' ye unleash the monster." She shrieked as he gripped her hair suddenly, forcing her neck to jut upward with a sharp tug. His eyes gleamed, appreciating the smooth, creamy skin. All his.
"Maybe I'll le' ye live fer a while after I ea'....I never ge' blood this tasty." He pressed his lips to her skin, humming with delight, making her shiver. He'd been starved for far too long. She bucked and thrashed, screaming for help, for someone. Anyone.
But no-one came as his teeth sunk into her neck.
Alisia woke with heavy, crusted eyelids. Probably all her dried tears. Nothing but darkness met her vision, and at first, she thought she was dead. An aching reality check throbbed at her neck, and she touched the wound gingerly. Two wounds, actually. Two puncture-holes. She trembled in fear. "It...really happened..."
"Of course it did lass."
She practically screamed, throwing the bed covers off her and throwing herself from the bed. Her back against the wall, she stared with horror at the man who had so casually allowed himself into her bed. He had a cocky smirk on his lips, and it only took her a moment to realize something.
Her cheeks bloomed red. "W-where...are your...clothes." A wider smirk was her answer. "Where are yours?"
It was only then that Alisia noticed the cold on her bare skin.
"W-what!?" She yanked the sheet from the bed, happy to see he still had trousers on, but wasted no time in wrapping herself. "We...you...." She gulped, her chest heaving. "did you.......touch me?"
"Well, with the way ye were screamin' like a banshee while I was suckin', aye, people would think so." He shrugged lazily. "I donnae shag titless lasses on the first date." Ok, perhaps that wasn't ALL true. He had been....tempted. He was a lonely man, after-all. Somehow he'd kept his hands behaved.
She stiffened when he stood, not bothering to cover his top half as he strode towards her. Grace and menace oozed off him like bubbling tar. His gloved hand caressed along the wall next to her head, and he leaned in.
"Like yer new home?"
It took Alisia a moment to register that question before she blanched. ".......No. No no no no I can't live h-" A strong, large hand clamped over her mouth, silencing her. "I didnae say ye had a choice." His dark chuckle mad her shiver. If she had to stay here, then....
"Why?" She asked as a whisper, barely past his fingers. Verdant eyes glowed, and he leaned another deadly inch closer. "Because I wan' ye tae."
A silence sifted and staled in the room between them with Alisia staring into his eyes, searching for any deceit. She found none. "Why on Earth-" "Why do ye keep askin' annoying questions?" he snapped, baring a gleaming fang. Alisia was surprised it was clean, after what he'd done to her. "But...didn't you say you were going to kill m-" "Plans change." Another snap, firmer. She silenced herself obediently, watching as he angrily crossed towards the large open window. Staring out at the moon.
Iain would never admit his aching loneliness, and that need like dehydration to be quenched. If he ever admitted he craved companionship of any kind at all, his strong walls of pride would crumble. The girl seemed to figure something out though, as she took slow, careful steps towards him.
A warm, gentle hand on his shoulder made him stiffen, as though a statue. A soft, confused voice met his ear.
"Why did you let me live?"
Slowly, his head turned towards her. She had such big, chocolate eyes....eyes of innocence, of sympathy and kindness. Kindness wasted on him. When she didn't turn those doe-eyes away, he made another face. "Look lass, I do some things withou' thinkin' sometimes, alrigh'?" His words made her flinch. Good. She was supposed to be hurting, not sympathetic. "You....m-mean......it was a mistake?"
His eyes bore into her s a long moment, before he gruffly answered "Aye."
His sick, sadistic side squealed with glee at the tear that fell from her eye. Something else within him throbbed and ached. What had she done to deserve that? In a way, he was no better than those who condemned him.
But Iain had never cared before. And he wasn't about to start now.
Her eyes were defeated now, and he turned,. Something...couldn't let him bear to look at her any longer.
"This is actually my room. Yers is down the hall, tae the right." He motioned her out with stiff arm gestures. The small shuffling of footsteps, and a soft click of a closing door signaled that she'd gone.
Iain inhaled the night air, letting the pale disk of the moon remind him of what he was, why he was hated. And why he must hate because of it. His brothers had all abandoned him, screaming the same words of "Monster!" as they tried to set him aflame. His mother dead. Father dead. He was an outcast, a wretch upon all humanity. And no matter what, he was going to love it. He would be the monster they wanted him to be.
His eyes wandered to the closed door. He still had her to deal with though. A random impulse of his buried human-conscious. Vampires didn't feel. They fed. He figured his desire to have her around would go away, with time.
But maybe.......he could make her cook for him for a bit of time. He heard that Armenians made the best pastries.
The hollow shell of a man strode from the window, reaching for his discarded shirts and cape along the floor. Redressed, he could feel his fangs aching again. He pulled his lips back in a grin that would make children run screaming. It was time to wreak havoc again. Time to be a monster.
Then, he'd come home, a little less alone.

I'm sorry. I posted a version of this yesterday but it was just not sitting quite right with me. The light was bad, the focus was poor and the painting itself was not quite dry. Anyway, bye bye previous post – took this bad boi out in the back garden and did a little photo shoot until I was content (a mere 78 photos, can ye believe?)
The below is a product of a tonne of PVA glue and liberal lashings of ink. Those circles are glue bubbles. Dying to pop them but I figure if they have lasted this long they are just meant to be. Reminds me of a big old colourful heart.

I remember laughter when I think of joke of the week and me winning the award. I remember the whole school laughing in front of me. I felt glad, excited and full of laughter at the same time. I think of the glasses and certificate I got as a reward. I remember the student that tried to say the answer of my joke but they didn't get it right. I told my dad the joke and he made it better. My joke was 'Where do you go to get the best meat?'

Flowers are in bloom and it's time to break out the gardening tools and clear the area for new flowers to be planted. Perennials, trees, shrubs and cool weather vegetables and herbs are the popular seasonal things to plant. Here are a few different ways to help you get the lush garden you've been dreaming of:
- Have a game plan before digging in. Making room for new plants is going to benefit you and you'll have a better understanding of what you're garden is going to look like. Choose like colors or shapes to balance your garden out, and plan on using space between your plants for any large growth or ornaments you might want to add later on.
- Having patience with your garden is number one rule. Gardening takes time and it's not about how fast your garden grows, its adding to it a little at a time and watching it blossom into your ideal garden. Gardening is a leisurely activity, not a sporting event so take your time and relax so that you can enjoy your garden each step of the way.
- When first beginning your garden, you will need to invest in some good gardening tools and accessories that you will want to last. Tools, hoses and something to transport large supplies such as fertilizer can be found at your local hardware store and even in some grocery stores. Check the sales fliers for gardening sets, as they will often have discounts and sales for equipment so you don't have to pay full price.
- Once you have finished planting, revel in your accomplishment and enjoy your tranquil environment that you have created. After the planting is done, you will notice others taking interest in your sanctuary such as birds and butterflies. Other insects that can destroy plants will also be drawn in, but with routine maintenance and careful tending this can be avoided.
Gardening is a great way to get outside and to do something productive. You also gain a sense of accomplishment and you should feel accomplished because you have given back to your environment. It's a great way to get the family involved and an even better way to get in touch with your roots.

It seems like forever since I've picked up my camera when I wasn't being paid to.
I honestly forgot how relaxing it is.
It's also seems like forever since I've spent time with someone new.
I honestly forgot how refreshing it is.
Glad to be getting back to the basics of both.
Many thanks to Spencer for lending her time and trust to me for the day.
Also, a quick shout out to Tennessee for randomly being 60 degrees and sunny in November.

Michał Urbaniak is a jazz violin and saxophone player, composer and arranger. During his long career, he has cooperated with Krzysztof Komeda, Andrzej Trzaskowski and Miles Davis, amongst others. Born in Warsaw on 22th of January, 1943.
A world famous jazz violinist associated with the New York jazz scene, John Zorn and his avant-garde label Tzadik Records. Played in such famous bands as the Masada String Trio and Bar Kokhba, as well as performing Zorn's film music.
Dominique Pifarély modernized jazz violin, combining extraordinary technical skills with an inclusive idea of music-making. He has been soon very in-demand as a straight jazz player, but was soon in some of the more adventurous groups in Europe, too, including Mike Westbrook's band, Martial Solal, the Vienna Art Orchestra, Joachim Kühn…
Cellist Erik Friedlander started studying music at an early age, beginning at 5 with guitar, and then at 8, cello lessons. He grew up in a house filled with music, as his father, an avid music lover, made countless mixtapes which played daily in their home. Erik spent his twenties honing his skills as a player and an improviser and quickly became a sought after studio musician, performing on the Downtown music scene and with artists as diverse as The Mountain Goats, John Zorn, Dave Douglas and Courtney Love.
