Wales interim head coach Rob Howley has backed the Welsh scrum to have a "huge influence" in the upcoming Six Nations.
Wales interim head coach Rob Howley has backed the Welsh scrum to have a "huge influence" in the upcoming Six Nations.
Howley was without Lions prop Adam Jones and Exeter Chiefs prop Craig Mitchell during the November Internationals, but believes their return and the experience of his front row could hand his side a major advantage.
"We have gone through a November series with injuries to key personnel during the opening 20-25 minutes, which is going to have an influence if your player base isn't large compared to other nations," said Howley.
"We see it as opportunity to give players who are young and talented – the likes of James King and Andrew Coombs – but it's also good to welcome back the likes of Craig Mitchell and Adam Jones, meaning there's a good level of balance and experience in our front-row which can be a focal part of our Six Nations campaign.
"We missed Adam during the November internationals. He's probably one of the best tightheads in world rugby and from what I've seen of the scrum, it will have a huge influence. It's great to have strength in depth in that area."
One of those young and talented players is Eli Walker, with Howley highlighting his differing abilites compared to other giant Welsh wingers Alex Cuthbert and George North.
"Over the last two years we have given young talent the opportunity, with Leigh Halfpenny and George North to name just two players involved. Eli Walker is an extremely gifted player," added Howley.
"With his ability to beat players on the inside or outside, many people will describe him as Shane Williams-esque, but I also think that he is comfortable on the ball, works hard coming in off the wing. George and Alex Cuthbert are two physical wings and Eli offers something different."
Wales captain Sam Warburton admitted that he was happy to play anywhere across the back-row given the good form of Ospreys openside Justin Tipuric in recent weeks.
The Blues flanker also stated that despite the seven-game losing streak following the Six Nations, he took great confidence coming into the tournament as champions and insisted that Welsh rugby was not "down the pan."
"I would be more than happy to play anywhere in the back-row with Wales," said Warburton.
"I've covered six and eight already – when I first started I played six alongside Martyn Williams and it has worked well at the Blues with myself and Josh Navidi.
"It's a really nice feeling coming in as reigning champions and I take great confidence from that. We might not have done so well results wise since, particularly against Australia where those results could have gone our way, but in the Six Nations we won some matches by a whisker so that is the fine line in international rugby.
"The losing run was difficult. I felt we contained Australia right up until they scored in the 81st minute in our last game. I felt in control and that we played well, apart from that last minute. We have learnt from it but it's not going to effect the way we play and our confidence.
"You don't become a bad side overnight. People are talking about Welsh rugby as though it's gone down the pan, but it's easily recoverable. We might have lost seven matches in a row but some of those have been really tight with good performances.
"It has taught me that I don't like losing. When I came in as captain things were on the up, not just for myself but a lot of the squad and it has taken experienced players such as Ryan Jones to tell us that it's not all doom and gloom."

Seventh Generation Disinfecting Wipes are great for spot-cleaning around the house since it doesn't leave much of a filmy residue, and I keep them in my car so that I can wipe down tables in restaurants. The "scent" of thyme is actually mostly coming from the active disinfecting ingredient, Thymol. I think that this is great — no benzene, isopropyl alcohol or triclosan. The price is alright, so this is a good value in my opinion.
Very good product

I try not to use disposable products but my need to 'quick clean' my house won out. These are very good with a nice scent. I wish they were made from recycled paper.

Mike Shaw's Slammer Handcrafted Swimbait
Mike Shaw's Slammer Handcrafted Swimbait is one of the most versatile big fish baits we've ever tried. The Slammer is hand-made out of high quality cedar wood by striper expert Mike Shaw in his facility in Atascadero, California. This lure has undergone years of on the water testing, with refinements and adjustments added to create a real fish catching wooden bait. There are several ways to fish this bait. The round cross-section lends itself well to floating on the top of the water. Cranking the Slammer slowly enough to create a wake on the surface, but fast enough to make the bait swim, can be deadly in the early morning or late evening when there is a calm surface. Walking the Slammer in this fashion can get some explosive topwater strikes and will allow you to fish it in shallow areas or over submerged grass and brush without fouling the hooks. Cranking the Slammer a little faster will submerge it and swim it one to three feet underwater. This method is effective when the fish are not on a heavy topwater bite and when the wind has chopped up the surface. For striper action, Mike likes to troll his bait on a downrigger or lead core line, and this bait is deadly for huge lake trout when fished the same way. The Slammer is responsible for catching enormous specimens of just about every freshwater game fish and some saltwater game fish in North America.
The seven and nine-inch baits can probably be thrown on a heavy rod, but the twelve-inch bait is pretty big and may require a heavier rod. All sizes of the Slammer catch fish, so don't hesitate to try the big lures, too. You may want to check out our selection of rods designed to throw the big wood.

Customer Reviews
Comments: One of the best topwater swimbaits of ALL TIME! Just bagged my personal best swimbait fish waking the 9" over a defined weedline edge. Fish was a HANGRY 5.7 northern strain largemouth. My only gripe with this bait is the stock hooks and it'd be nice to have a spare tail. Overall it's a must have swimbait for anyone looking into throwing big baits for big bites
From: Jordan: RI 9/22/15
Comments: Loud, old school & durable. More importantly it gets hammered. I was surprised to catch so many 1-2lbers on the 9". Slammers are some of the most productive baits in my arsenal.
From: Francis: Seattle, WA 7/16/15
Comments: This swimbait is so universal you can slow row it, crank it, jerk it, walk it, and catch flat out catch fish with it.
From: KVangD: Fresno, CA 1/12/15
Comments: By far my favorite swimbait! Can slow wake it on top, crank it down a few feet, do a stationary walk, or even dead stick this bait and get bit. Very versatile and doesn't break the bank. So far have pulled numerous 4-7lbers on the 7inch version. The bait is fully broken in and has hook rash, yet still catches fish with no problem. Get one asap!
From: AS: San Diego, CA 11/10/14
Comments: i got the slammer a couple weeks ago .ive caught 5 fish on it and missed a few. 2 3pounders, 2 just a little over 4 pounds and my personal best 9.5 pounder!agin im in s.c fishing dark stained water .this bait is great!
From: Scott: Little River, SC 10/2/14
Comments: Got my personal best today on the 9in baby bass in dark looking swamp water that has no trout! I'm officially a big swimbait fisherman, love this lure it works here in S.C. Great! It's heavy so you better have a rig that can handle it. This is the best thing since sliced loaf bread!
From: Scott: Little River, SC 10/1/14
Comments: This is absolutely my new favorite summer time swimbait. I've been catching bass from 1 1/2 lb to the 8 pounder I dumped at the boat (I panicked and gave her a little time to jump) 2 days ago on the 9'' Slammer. They explode on it like a frog a lot of the time but you can draw up the biggest fish around where a frog might not accomplish this around docks and submerged trees. This lure is money well spent!! If you want my opinion the Dobyns 806 swimbait rod and this lure are meant to be.
From: Ryan: Seattle, WA.
Comments: Great bait! My biggest fish this year was caught on a 7" bass colored MS Slammer. It was also my biggest swimbait fish and the 3rd biggest bass I ever caught.
From: Marco: Portugal
Comments: great bait!!! i fished a very pressured lake and pulled two fish, 3 and a 5lb plus four other followers. fishing it like a squarebill in rocky cliffs is deadly!
From: Jake: Orange County, CA
Comments: I have fished the 7 inch for a summer now and can say that it's one of my favorite smallmouth baits. Don't be afraid to throw it, its not too big. I like 20 lb mono on a rod similar to a big crank rod. If in heavy cover size one gammie 2x are the way to go otherwise I fish VMC 9649BZ size one same as a BB rig. Great bait.
From: Nathan: Saginaw, MI
Comments: Good bait. Caught a 5 lbr first time out throwing it on a highy pressured swimbait lake. I bought the 7" and wish i got the 9". very manageble to cast all day long. i throw on a 7'6" heavy rod with 20 lb big game with no issues.
From: Miles: AZ
Comments: This lure rocks has awesome swimming action, nailed 4.5lb on 9th cast totally satisfy.
From: Fishkiller01: NYC, NY
Comments: You will feel like a rock star throwing this bait for all the attention it gets from bystanders. Great big bass bait in northern New England, since pickeral, which are common here, rarely hit this bait. It is also very cool that each bait has Mike Shaw's initials and date for a personal touch.
From: bigpoppabass: Nashua, NH
Comments: wholy mackeral lol man my friend has this swim bait and we were fishing a little pond they never hit top water well he took this swim bait out and i thought he was carzy it was big he missed so many bass he got lots of followers and caught a 2 lb on the 7 inch man i mean they really love this swim bait i nead to get one the bass color kills
From: Brian: Costamesa
Comments: Been fishing Slammers for 7 years now, and can say that they are one of the most versatile Big Baits that get bit. Crank it down. Wake it. Twitch it. Rip/pause through Slop. It is a deadly producer. I recommend replacing stock hooks with Owner ST 36 For The Win.
From: Scott: Halifax, MA
Comments: i really like this bait for night fishing, i just add some strips of glow tape to mine for some added bling. This thing is a producer for night bass.its built tough and calls in the the midnight hogs. well worth the money.
From: Sam: Orland Park, IL
Comments:Best big bass bait for shallower cover, just killer, and super versatile!!
From:JG: USA
Comments: This bait is one of the hottest top water baits available...deadly at night due to the noise and wake it puts off
From: David, Huntington Beach, CA, 11/04

Residents may receive mailings that look official or purport to be government-endorsed products or services. Often, however, they are not. The Public Utilities Department has issued a bona fide endorsement of an insurance plan that covers residents in the event a water or sewer line breaks in the area for which they are responsible, usually between their foundation and the connection to public lines near the street.
The insurance program is offered by the National League of Cities, of which Fairfield is a member. The plan is a Service Line Warranty that covers up to $4,000 in repairs to a broken water or sewer line (and up to $4,000 in additional costs if the street needs to be repaired following work). The plan is offered for an introductory monthly fee of $5.75 for water lines and $7.95 for sewer lines. (Annual fees are $64.40 for water lines and $90.40 for sewer lines.)
In the event of a broken service line, a resident would call a service center, which immediately contacts a local contractor to repair the line without any additional charge to the resident, usually within 24 hours. There are no deductibles or additional fees required for a covered repair.
The warranty program is underwritten by Service Line Warranties of America, which has been in business for a decade and holds an A+ rating with the Better Business Bureau.
The Service Line Warranty Program is offered as protection to homeowners who otherwise may be financially devastated by a service line repair bill that often ranges from $1,200 to $3,500. For more information about the plan, visit www.utilitylineprotection.com

Nashville is alive. Feel its pulse when you walk down the sidewalks. Fortunately, you can also hear the music almost anywhere you go.
You can also hear football fans cheering on the Tennessee Titans, visitors oohing and ahhing at The Parthenon's grandeur or The Hermitage's historic beauty, and plates being happily passed at Monell's. Shopping from malls to trend-setting boutiques is found throughout the city.
In Nashville, the past and the future peacefully coexist to create a destination that appeals to the interests of every visitor. Take Belle Meade Plantation, Belmont Mansion or Travellers Rest Plantation for example. All three homes share stories from Civil War days and welcome visitors with restored beauty. Observe Union defenses as you travel along the Battle of Nashville driving tour, or stand in reverence on one of the bloodiest battlefields at Stones River. Take note of a benefit realized from the Civil Warm, Fisk University, the oldest higher learning institute in Nashville. Tour amazing artifacts at the Tennessee State Museum, then stop for lunch at the Hermitage Hotel's Capitol Grille, which opened in 1910.
Outdoors, Nashville holds its own. Plan a quiet reverie when you visit our first State Natural Area, Radnor Lake State Park and its 90-acre lake. Be sure to check out J. Percy Priest Lake with 14,400 acres and 265 miles of shoreline. For serious inland fun, hike the nature trails, enjoy the golf courses, explore the working organic garden and more at the 2,684 acres of forest and field of Edwin Warner Park.
Nashville is where music lives. A place where music hangs its hat and puts its feet up on the furniture. To really experience Nashville's music history, see a show inside the Ryman and Grand Ole Opry. Visit Ernest Tubb Midnite Jamboree, the second oldest radio show, airing after the Grand Ole Opry. Walk along Music Mile or Music Row. See Historic RCA Studio B, Music City's only historic studio tour. Learn why they call it "Music City" at the Country Music Hall of Fame and Museum. At night, the city comes alive! Hit up the Gulch entertainment district or the District, a vibrant part of Lower Broadway, where honky tonks and good restaurants converge. Tootsie's Orchid Lounge and other honky tonks are jam-packed with people. Hear up-and-comers and renowned songwriters perform at legendary Bluebird Cafe, and see a show at famous Wildhorse Saloon. Get a seat at the Station Inn for some of the city's best bluegrass. See why our state-of-the-art Schermerhorn Symphony Center is so popular among locals and visitors. Nashville is a place where people don't just talk about songs and lyrics, but live them night and day.
The city is chock-full of creative arts. Appreciate world-class visual art at Frist Center for the Visual Arts. See iconic posters printed for most Ryman shows at Hatch Show Print, and take home a souvenir. Immerse yourself in landscape and sculptural art as you stroll through Cheekwood Botanical Garden and Museum of Art.
If you're hungry for more, visit the Nashville Zoo, or take in the view at Bicentennial Capitol Mall Park, built to honor Tennessee's 200th anniversary. Settle down to muse the day over a plate of comfort food at Loveless Cafe.
Experience Nashville
In a bustling city known for its music, you'll also find creative passion on display in visual and culinary arts, historic sites, sports and outdoor beauty.

Love the grey one!
"Love it! Very stylish. I only wore it one time so my feet did hurt when I got home after work but hopefully it will not hurt the more I wear them. I normally wear a 6 1/2 but had to get the 6 since it was the only size available and they fit perfect! The heel is a chunky heel otherwise I wouldn't have bought them since I'm not comfy wearing high heels. I'm hoping that DSW would bring us more shoes in this style and pattern."

just okay
"I like the style and material these shoes are made from. They look great with tights and skirts. However, one shoe seems to fit a little bigger than the other. I was able to compensate with the heel grips you put in the back. Since I will only be wearing them occasionally, this works for me."

Tummy Ache? You May have an Increased Risk for Celiac Disease
7 comments:
- Kathy said...
Hi, Thank you for the good reading article. I gave up gluten just to see what would happen. 1 month into eating GF, my long standing (at least 6 years) brain fog went away. Nothing could have made me happier! I've had geographic tongue for 25 years and that has taken a hike. Also, after 2 months it seems that it is going to make me more regular and less constipated. I may never know "what" I have, but one thing for sure is that I am gluten intolerant. No problems for me to give it up. There is NO treat made of gluten that would mean more to me than my brain. Amen!
- Kathy said...
I stopped eating gluten about 2 months ago. I did it because I want my husband and youngest daughter who have depression to go off of it to see if it would help. What a great surprise for me when after 1 month, my long standing, scary brain fog went away. I don't know when my brain was last this clear, maybe 7 or 8 years ago. I can't even tell you how happy I am with this discovery! Also my 25 yr with geographic tongue has taken a hike, and my BM are much more regular (less constipation, I have never had IB, or eating issues).
I with that there were more studies out there on gluten intolerance and neurological problems like dementia. My mom has dementia, and her mom and sister had it too. It is the saddest thing to watch someone you love have it. I now wonder, with my clear brain, if they all had a gluten problem. I vow to stay GF for life. There's just no food in this world that I would choose over having a healthy brain. It means the world to me that I found a cure for myself.
Thank you for your great article. I am going to forward it to my dad to start educating him. Maybe he'll get he and my mom off of gluten someday, I sure hope so.
I went off of gluten last November after four years of intense stomach pain and nausea. My doctor had done many, many tests with no results and even sent me to a gastrointestinologist. She only gave me pills to treat symptoms, not the cause. I believe strongly that my symptoms developed as a result of trauma and stress. Before my symptoms began, I was working through, for the first time, my childhood sexual abuse with a therapist. A couple years after the symptoms began, I tested positive for hypothyroidism. Since it seems my doctors were skeptical, I took the initiative to go off gluten myself after some research. My body is completely different now. Stomach pain and nausea gone. I just wished the doctors in my area would've given me this option. I lost too many years being sick.
- Genghis said...
Can you send me a link to a food diary that you like that my daughter can use to track foods/snacks she eats and then document times and symptoms that she experiences?
We're trying to figure out triggers and to get with a gastroenterologist to figure out a diagnosis.
Thanks for your help,
- The HealthNOW Doctors said...
Hello Genghis,
I don't have a specific food diary to recommend to you. Patients find different ones online and others prefer hand written versions.
Depending on what you daughter prefers to do, you can find many options and suggestions online.
Do understand that a food can create effects in the body for up to 4 days after ingestion.

- madel09 said...
Dear Dr Vikki, my 6 yr old has geographic tongue, severe constipation, often feels sick and has behaviour problems, our paediatrician says it's our parenting but with Ibs and celiac on both sides of her family I am wondering if this is in fact the culprit.
- The HealthNOW Doctors said...
It very well could be your family history of celiac and IBS that is the true culprit. And I can't possibly imagine any parenting issue that would result in a geographic tongue...
Getting to the root cause of the problem should not be difficult.
We have great success in patients like your child.
I'm not sure where you live but consider calling us for a free health analysis - 408-733-0400. Our destination clinic treats patients from across the country and internationally.

MANGASTREAM ver. CHAPTER 613
So the Jyubi posses Byakugan powers as well ? It looked like it was it's eye that noticed their head unit hidden underground in a far, far away land. Or was it thanks to natural energy and the capability to feel life force ?
I wonder if the missing limbs are because of the missing portions of it's chakra, or if it have thrown it away to escape the trap ?
Somehow I have the feeling that Sasuke might have saved them. His Susanoo does have a shield, not to mention that splitting the Bijuu Egg with a Amaterasu Sword would reduce it power by eating it up along the way.
Tsunade should be about ending the kages treatment by now.
^Well byakugan came from the sharingan, so that makes sense the ultimate eye would be at least part byakugan.
Aggravate, Anger, and Piss off
Oh wow. I like/touched? the moment when shikamaru instantly realised what was going on as he listened to his final moments from his father...just...wow. Needs Temari more than ever now lol. Oh n poor ino too lol.
NNNNnnnnnoooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!! Not Shikaku. Damnit, first Asuma and now Shikaku. Shikimaru has all the makings for the next villian of the Narutoverse. He's extremly smart and has lost a father figure and a father. If Temari dies then Shikamaru is going to be the next Obito.
Damnit, I liked Shikaku....R.I.P
Favorite Manga/Anime CharactersNaruto, Orochimaru, Jariya, Itachi, Ichigo, Mayuri, Kenpachi, Mugen, Vash the Stampede, "L", Edward Elric, Reborn, Rokudo Mukuro, Black Star, Dr. Fraken Stein, Death the Kid
The Juubi could probably track where Shikaku's unit was located through their chakra broadcasting, similar to how Naruto was able to locate Nagato. Damn, this chapter made me sad, I liked Shikaku and Ao. :( On the Juubi's current form, I wonder if it's so emaciated-looking because it didn't possess the full power of the 8-tails and 9-tails?
Shikaku and the intelligence-force will prlly go down in history as legends,
can't wait to see what amazing plan he came up with after gathering intell on every single asset on the battlefield. And what in god's name are sasuke and orochimaru up to atm...
Wonder when Guy will go 8-gates batshit on madara and die aswell.
I wonder if Kabuto dies after this war.
Anyone think that giant scar on the Juubi's chest is the wound that was caused by an attack used by So6P to defeat the Juubi in their battle? Also what's evolving the Juubi? Is it the reformation process of the 9 beats's chakra or is it absorbing surrounding natural energy at a slow pace? The latter can explain the usage of Senju cells to control the beast. This is as good a time as ever to have some named character casualties. Every chapter that goes by adds to the mystery of what Sasuke's involvement will affect. Will he choose 1 of the 2 sides of the war or constitute his own?
Anyway, suddenly, the chapter became heartbreaking once it was revealed where that shot was going. I felt my heart drop a little lol.

News // Face Candy
6.9.11 Wasted Teens Episode 5 with Sage Francis
Waste Age Teen Land marks the second release from Twin Cities quartet Face Candy. Featuring the talents of dual vocalists Micheal "Eyedea" Larsen and Kristoff Krane freestyling over the improvisations of bassist Casey O'Brien and drummer JT Bates, Waste Age marks the final record Eyedea was able to completely finish before his tragic passing in October of 2010.
In the fifth episode of Wasted Teens, longtime friend of Rhymesayers and Eyedea, Sage Francis, talks about his first few listens to the album and his initial reactions to the improvisational theme of the album.
Recorded during two days at Winterland Studios by Brian Johnson (Prince, Eyedea & Abilites) and one night in front of an audience at St. Paul's Black Dog Café (engineered by No Bird Sing's Graham O'Brien), the album showcases the band's full spectrum of talents—from contemplative instrumentals to auto-tuned joke rapping, and every shade in between. The record, and indeed the entire philosophy behind Face Candy requires sharp awareness in the moment. Are you ready to take the leap?
Waste Age Teen Land is now available online and in retail stores! Buy today: Fifth Element | iTunes | Amazon or your local independent music retailer or select Best Buy locations.

This week we are going to focus on anything and everything that relates to text (everything that I can think of, anyway). Now, what I have to say about text may be different than that of the rules regarding general and professional graphic design. I have never had "training" on such rules, this is simply what I have found to work for me in digital scrapbooking. In scrapbooking, our needs for text often vary and the same rules just don't have to apply. Most of the time, you want your photo to take center stage, but sometimes, you might want to focus on heavy journaling, bold titles, or simply use your text as element to balance your layout. Text can be so versatile and is such a great way to add drama and depth to you pages. And it is VERY rare (if ever) that I do a layout without it.
Now… if you want to know every little thing I have to say about text, you may want to grab a cup of coffee or tea and a blanket… it's gonna be a long one. Hahaha. Seriously… I'm warning you… this will be a pretty wordy and long-winded tutorial. But to help with that, I have included some sample layouts to give this thing a bit of visual appeal and to break it up a bit. (For layout credits, simply click on layout images.) I have also split it up into sections. Here is an overview of what we will be covering. This will help you skip around to the sections that interest you most.
~ Keeping the eye focused.
~ Keeping your text properly sized.
~ Using text to draw the eye to a specific part of your photo.
~ Journaling
~ Titles
~ Dates and Names
~ Using text as Elements
~ Sizing
~ Placement
~ Color
~ Title
~ General Documentation (the who's, when's, and where's)
~ Journaling
A great way to keep your layout from being confusing to the eye is to keep a maximum of 3 fonts on any given page. I usually use one font for my title, a different one for journaling, and a different one for my date. (I think the rule of general graphic design is actually 2 fonts per document, but for our purposes in scrapbooking, the use of 3 fonts doesn't really bother me.) Also, keep in mind that this rule can always be broken if you're using a great word art or using your text as a way to create huge impact… but I will say that I've only seen a couple of layouts that successfully pull this off... unfortunately, none of them are mine. hahaha.
Keeping your text properly sized.
Another great tip is to try to avoid making your font size larger than the subject in your photo. When you make your font larger than it's subject, it will almost always take the attention off of your photo by sort of dwarfing it. Again… this rule can always be broken if you WANT the focus to be on your title to make a bold statement using your photo as the "supporting" lead. If you enjoy expressing yourself through journaling, this can be quite therapeutic, actually.
In this layout… I wanted the title and the journaling to be the focus here… the photo of me is to serve as an afterthought and a visual to where I was in life during this time.
However, in this layout, I wanted the photo to be what the eye is drawn to, therefore making my title much smaller, but still large enough to stand out.
Using text to draw the eye to a specific part of your photo/layout.
Text can be a great way to draw attention to a particular part of your photo or layout. You can use it to literally "tell" someone where in your photo/layout to look. Now this can be tricky… if you make it too large, your eye will go to the text and then get confused, so make sure you don't over-do it. Here are a couple of examples.
In this layout, I love the curve that the shape of her back took here and really wanted to draw attention to that. Here was my thought process on how I placed my text. I placed my title right above where I wanted my focus to be. I made it a bold font and made it pretty large in a contrasting color. Then, by using a much less bold font and making it journaling size, I repeated the text in the title several times and then dropped one of the text lines to just below where I wanted my focus. This created sort of a little "box" and your eye is drawn right into the center of it. Although at first glance, your eye goes to the title, the line of text below her back immediately draws your eye down instead of up. So after you have read the title/journaling to feel the emotion of the layout, you see the soft curves of her shape and then you continue on to the top to see her hair blowing in the wind. Does that make sense? It sounds kind of corny, but it's just how my mind works.
In the next layout, the bubbles are clearly the focus of the photo. But I actually want to play up the sense of wonder that she is experiencing here. I really wanted to draw attention to her arm and hand that is reaching out to those bubbles. So, I placed my title just below her hand and then chose a really small element with a good pop of color to really zoom the eye in on it.
SECTION 2 - Choosing The Right Font for your Layout
I am a bit flaky when it comes to this, however there are some things I'm freakishly set on and in both regards I take this part pretty seriously… probably more seriously than I should. Again… what I have to offer here is based on personal preference and opinion as opposed to "rules". So if I'm breaking some widely-known graphic design rules, don't be too hard on me. :) I'll start with some definitions of fonts, just so it's clear what I'm talking about when I refer to the type by name.
Different Font Styles and Definitions
Glyphs of serif fonts have finishing strokes, flared or tapering ends, or have actual serifed endings (including slab serifs). Serif fonts are typically proportionately-spaced. They often display a greater variation between thick and thin strokes than fonts from the 'sans-serif' generic font family. Examples of fonts that fit this description include:
Glyphs in sans-serif fonts have stroke endings that are plain -- without any flaring, cross stroke, or other ornamentation. Sans-serif fonts are typically proportionately-spaced. They often have little variation between thick and thin strokes, compared to fonts from the 'serif' family. Examples of fonts that fit this description include:
Glyphs in cursive fonts generally have either joining strokes or other cursive characteristics beyond those of italic typefaces. The glyphs are partially or completely connected, and the result looks more like handwritten pen or brush writing than printed letterwork. Fonts for some scripts, such as Arabic, are almost always cursive. Examples of fonts that fit this description include:
Others include Grunge, Whimsy, Typewriter, and Webdings
These fonts are so popular and quite the trend. They don't really even have a definition... they are just simply the work of artists in my mind. Examples of fonts that fit this description include (the last one is Webdings):
**Definitions of Serif, Sans-serif, and Cursive fonts provided by Cascading Style Sheets, level 2CSS2 Specification http://www.w3.org/TR/REC-CSS2/cover.html
Here are a couple of GREAT websites that offer a TON of free fonts in all different styles:
The first thing I want to note about journaling is size… you want to keep your journaling relatively small (like between 10 and 16... I usually use 12 or 14.) You will be surprised at how much larger things are when they are printed as opposed to on your screen and how much better a printed page looks with small journaling. It just has a more polished look.
As far as font type, I almost always choose a serif or sans-serif font for my journaling. Now, I may go against this preference if my journaling is only 1 or 2 sentences and doesn't require a lot of heavy reading. But if I am really journaling… telling a story, explaining something, or offering insight, I stay with this preference. In my opinion, using a script, whimsical, or grungy font when heavy journaling is involved, the eye (or at least *my* eye) eventually grows tired of working so hard to read the content and may become bored or even a little frustrated. This can result in either having your viewer stop reading it or not fully absorb the message. Where as when you use serif or sans-serif fonts, the eye can effortlessly flow through the easy-to-read journaling. It's a much more pleasant experience for your reader. (Think about if your favorite Danielle Steele novel or Stephen King thriller were written in a scripty cursive! Eeeek!) Plus… to me… it just looks better. It's a cleaner look and that fits in well with my simple style. Here's a visual…
However… in this layout… my journaling was only a couple of sentences. To me… such a short message can handle a prettier font. I actually tried this in a serif at first, but felt that it was just… well… boring. I almost *liked* the semi-illegible feel this font has here… it just seemed to flow with the "messy" mood of the layout. See the difference?
Titles are much more font-friendly. More often than not, our titles are larger and easy to read regardless of what font they are. I usually determine the font for my title based on 2 factors. The mood of my layout and the size of the subject in my photo.
We'll talk about sizing in next section… right now, let's look at the mood. It's determined by how I feel when I look at a photo. If it's a picture of Alyssa with her hair blowing in the wind or her eyes all deep and dreamy, then my layout is probably going to be all emotional with some inspiration saying or sappy journaling. When pairing that mood with a font, I might be inclined to choose a pretty script font, although sometimes, the clean lines of a serif font do just fine here. But definitely not something like a Comic Sans, because it would fight with the emotion of the photo and/or my journaling. If it's a photo of Gage shooting me a funny face or doing a cannonball into the pool… I would definitely stay away from scripty, formal, cursive fonts. I might go with a hand-written font or even a bold grungy-type font just to show the "non-seriousness" of it. I will also say here that it is my opinion that serif fonts are universal. They will work with any mood, as you can see below. Here are some examples of how you can choose the right font for any mood.
Serif and Sans-Serif Fonts:
These are pretty universal as you can see… they can work for just about any mood….
They work for formal and elegant:
Whimsy, Handwritten, and Grunge
As I said above, sizing is very important. It can make or break your layout. If you want your photo to be the center of attention, you don't want to make your title larger than the proportion of the subject in your photo. As with all rules, there are exceptions here, but 90% of the time, this will be the case. Here's an example of where the exception can apply.
It actually works pretty good here for 2 reasons. (1) Because the photo is a close up, meaning our subject is quite large and can handle the competition, and (2) the title size lines up perfectly with the size of our photo creating one visual line, and with making the photo "heavier" than the title (meaning that the title is light in color while our photo seems heavier. It's as if the visual weight is shifted, therefore your eye naturally goes to the heavier side. (does that make sense?)
Just be careful when making your titles this big. If you are uncertain… sometimes it helps tremendously to get a second pair of eyes on it. I do this quite often. I will send it to a fellow scrapper and say "What's off here" or "When you first open this layout, what's the FIRST thing you see?" If they say "I see the title first", you may consider making it smaller or your photo larger.
Placement is also extremely important. As with size, you should also consider proportions, only here, you consider your full canvas. You want your title and photo to work together supporting each other, not competing for attention. Way more often than not, you want one supporting the other, you don't want them both to be the focus. You want your viewer's eye to have a starting place. If it is your photo, that should stand out while you use your title, journaling, and elements to guide their eye (IN ORDER) to where you want it to go. Here's a visual…
As you can see (and PLEASE tell me if I'm wrong, hahaha!) the first thing your eye sees here is Alyssa and Uncle Jason's faces. (Even more specifically, I see their little kiss first)… then your eye goes up and to the background to see the title "UNEXPECTED" repeated everywhere, then it sort of moves down to his tatoos and sort of rough exterior. The title now makes sense and your eye moves onto read the journaling.
And with this one... the first thing you see is her eyes... then, by making the title bright white and contrasting with the darkness of the photo, your eye goes from there to the title. Then, you see the scroll, the paper strips and the word art along the right edge.
I would definitely say that you want your title to coordinate with the colors in your layout… even better to coordinate with the colors in your photo. Just be careful that you don't sacrifice balance and setting the tone of your layout for "matching colors". For example… if you have a photo of one of your children on a bright red fire truck or a primary blue Thomas the Train, don't feel that you are limited to those colors for your title. While that does work… sometimes, using too much more of that color can be confusing to the eye by losing the focus. In that case, you could try making your title black or white or brown with maybe one letter red or blue… or placing a red or blue element somewhere on your title. Or even better, you could pull a less dominant color from your photo (say the color of your subject's shirt), this will help pull your subject out of the photo a little and actually help the balance.
Section 4: What do I say??
Now, although most of my pages have a title, that (again) is personal preference. Your layouts do not *need* one to serve its purpose. Sometimes, your photo or your journaling says it all. But on those that I choose to include a title, my inspiration ALWAYS (virtually no exceptions) comes from my photo. Whether directly or indirectly, my title is always what comes to my mind (or my heart) when looking at a photo. For some reason, I love the idea of bringing clichés to life. I love the idea of seeing a title that I've heard before and then pairing it with a great photo and personal journaling. It is very rare that I use someone's name or where they are as my title. But I am not an "event" scrapper… I am much more of a "thought" scrapper. Meaning, I don't usually do "Christmas" layouts, rather I tend to use photos taken on Christmas day and scrap them with my thoughts surrounding either the time of year or even thoughts completely unrelated to the event. I'm more interested in "where we are in life" in any given page as opposed to "documenting" a specific event. But this CERTAINLY does not mean that using "Christmas 2008" as your title is unacceptable. In fact, it's a great way to immediately get your viewer in the "mood" for the event while looking over the details… a GREAT way to offer a sense of emotion and to bring back specific memories for those you are scrapping for. I try to get these in at least sometimes. This is totally up to you. If you are stuck on a title, word art is your answer!!! And with all of the word art out there, you are SURE to find a title to go with just about any photo!
General Documentation (the who's, when's, and where's)
You can do this several ways. Here are the 2 most popular I've seen.
The Lengthy Details
If you really want to tell the story of your event, you could make the actual documentation the subject of your journaling. You could tell it like a story… not only including what event it is, but who came, the significance of the surroundings, as well as the feelings and emotions involved. This just helps it from being like a checklist.
The Plain and Simple
Most of the time, since I more often scrap my thoughts, I simply include the names and dates in a very small, but legible "date stamp". Although my layout is not focusing on the event, I still want to be able to look back on them and know how old my children were and let them know who they're in the photo with. Something as simple as "You + Daddy - August 2008" is about all I do. I usually use my title and journaling to tell my feelings or the story, but I have a hard time working in the who's and when's in this fashion. So this is my alternative.
Sigh. Journaling. I'm a little obsessive about it. On any page that I feel lead to journal, it is more often than not that I am passing on some type of message or advice… or even more often… sappy emotion. It's so very important to me that my children KNOW how much I love them, how much I love their dad, and our life. It's important to me that they know my thoughts about being a mom, a wife, and to watch how I progress in my faith and outlook on life. To me… the good and bad is important so that maybe when they get to this stage in life, they may get *something* from knowing how I coped with things. So I usually try to really pay attention to the everyday moments and feelings. I include things like random thoughts, things I am learning along the way in life, harder times and how I feel about them. I also try to incorporate changes about each of us as individuals and as a family to sort of help "watch" us all grow. They may read the novels I have written one day and think "Oh… ok… so the way I'm feeling right now is normal and I'm so glad to have this to relate to." Or, they may think "Oh my GOSH would this woman CAN it already!!??!!" ha! But either way… my life, my love, my feelings… it's all there written out for them. I love that I KNOW that if something were to happen to me tomorrow, my children will know exactly who I was and how much I loved them. I REALLY encourage you to put how you feel out there for those you scrap for… you just never know what it might do for them.
WHEW!! Ok… I think that covers it. Who knew there was so much to say about text?!? Even *I* didn't realize it until I started typing it all out!! I hope you are not bored to tears at this point!!! Hahaha!
I hope this is helpful for you. Although these are some things keep in mind when journaling on your layouts, remember that it is what your journaling SAYS that counts the most. Even if it breaks EVERY SINGLE rule out there… if it tells someone how you feel, if it reminds them of a happy time in their life, or encourages them in any way, then you have fulfilled your purpose in scrapping... period.

Spectacular views, with a double shot of Seattle's best attractions.
The city of Seattle is almost always buzzing. While some say it's the coffee, we think it might also be the city's best attractions, which we've hand-picked and packaged into an easy-to-use CityPASS ticket booklet that's valid for 9 consecutive days starting with the first day of use. You'll save time and money and see the city at your own pace, so you'll remember your trip long after you get home.
Our family of four had great fun touring Seattle's best sites! Despite being locals, we don't often get the time to see all the fun family destinations that Seattle has to offer. These passes paid for themselves within the first two locations compared to regular entry fees.
We highly recommend getting the Seattle city pass. We were really overwhelmed with all of the activities when we started planning our trip through Seattle; there is so much to do. It gave us a really well rounded tour of the highlights of Seattle.
Two trips to Space Needle alone is almost the price of the Seattle CityPASS. If you do anything nearby like Chihuly and EMP Museum, you're already ahead.
This was one of the coolest things we have ever purchased while traveling and I would recommend it to anyone! We saw all of Seattle, with two little kids, and we did it for half the price.
We hit Seattle running once we landed with only 4 days before we had to fly back home and so much to see, do, and eat it was tough to plan our trip but with a CityPASS in hand it makes the sights easy to route and walk right in. One of our best purchases worry free.
For your money's worth, the CityPASS Seattle is the best way to go. Not only did it include the best attractions in Seattle for the adults, it was perfect for the children, too.
What a great deal! 1.Ordering the pass was easy. 2.Trading your letter for the passbook was a breeze. 3.Absolutely no problems with entry to attractions. The cruise and Space Needle offer such beautiful views of the city. Great photos for those who love taking pictures!
I painstakingly compared all the admission prices of each attraction (even using Military Discounts and our Entertainment Book coupons in the calculations), to the cost of the CityPASS. It definitely won out. PLUS...there were extra savings.
We live in Seattle but wanted to be tourists for a couple of days... City Pass is the way to do it.

MORRISTOWN, N.J. -- New York Jets running back Mike Goodson "was incoherent, slobbering and had vomited all over himself as well as the interior of the vehicle," when he was arrested early Friday morning, New Jersey State Trooper Carlos Mesa said in an affidavit seen by USA TODAY Sports.
Goodson appeared in court Wednesday to plead not guilty to gun and drug charges in connection to the arrest.
Police said they found a baggie of marijuana in Goodson's pants pocket, and a loaded, .45-caliber Taurus Millennium handgun and drug paraphernalia in the car, which driver Garant Evans, 31, of Roselle, N.J., consented to have searched.
SAME OLD, SAME OLD: Sanchez already has 3 INTs
GENO'S PICK: QB choses Jay-Z to represent him
Mesa said that when he found the car stopped on Interstate 80 in Denville, N.J., he went to speak to Evans and smelled burnt marijuana and alcohol coming from the vehicle. Mesa said he saw Goodson, 25, in the front seat.
Goodson, of Spring, Texas, was taken to a hospital as a precaution after Friday's incident because of his level of intoxication, authorities said.
Police were alerted to the vehicle by a tow truck operator, who reported the vehicle stopped in the left center lane of the interstate around 3 a.m., police said.
The loaded, .45-caliber semi-automatic handgun contained 4 Speer rounds and one Winchester hollow point bullet, according to a criminal complaint.
Criminal complaints also said that police found two partially smoked marijuana cigars and drug paraphernalia that included four empty plastic baggies and one Dutchmaster pack containing the two cigars.
Goodson was able to post $50,000 bail and appeared Wednesday, neatly attired in a suit, at a processing hearing in state Superior Court.
Evans remained incarcerated Wednesday on $75,000 bail, Morris County Sheriff Edward Rochford said.
Defense lawyer Anthony Fusco said Goodson is still a Jets player and is fully cooperating with inquiries by the NFL and Jets. On Tuesday at the NFL owners meetings in Boston, Jets owner Woody Johnson said the club was still collecting "facts" about the case before determining Goodson's status. Johnson said Goodson had met with Jets general manager John Idzik.
"He has not been disciplined or anything like that by the team," Fusco said before the hearing. "The gun charge is serious but we have reason to believe the gun is not his. We firmly believe the gun charge is not going to last against Mike."
Fusco said that Goodson would next appear in Superior Court on June 12th.
Bail on Evans was reduced from the initial $150,000 to $75,000 on Tuesday by a Superior Court judge. According to court records, Evans is not permitted to have a weapon because he previously was convicted in Union County for possession of drugs with intent to distribute.
Fusco said Goodson met Evans about three weeks ago.
Goodson, who signed a three-year, $6.9 million deal with the Jets this off-season, did not speak to reporters under the advice of his attorney, who answered questions for him.
"He's upset," Fusco said. "It's something he didn't want to ever happen. Mike has no record whatsoever. He feels that he has been and will continue to cooperate with the New York Jets and the NFL."
Goodson faces five charges: drug possession, possession of drug paraphernalia, possession of a loaded gun, unlawful possession of a handgun and possession of hollow-point bullets.
When asked about the drugs, Fusco said: "We don't smoke cigars, marijuana or otherwise."
The lawyer advised Jets fans to "just hold on" as details in the case emerge.
"We're just getting into the case, but you can see, the way he looks, he's just a hell of a nice guy," Fusco said. "If you get a chance to talk to him later on, not today, you'll see what a nice guy he is. I think that's going to be very important."

Big win keeps Broder/Valjas alive
FUZHOU, China (April 26, 2013)– Jamie Broder of Victoria and Kristina Valjas of Toronto are into the round of 16 at the China Open beach volleyball tournament.
After two opening round robin losses on Thursday, Broder and Valjas produced a victory Friday in a must-win third and final round robin match 24-26, 21-17, 15-7 over Tatyana Mashkova and Irina Tsimbalova of Kazakhstan.
With the win they advanced to the first round of the playoffs where their opponents Evgenia Ukolova and Svetlana Popova of Russia, seeded 16th, withdrew due to injury.
The 26th seeds Canadians, who advanced to the main draw through the qualifier, face third-seeds Greta Cicolari and Marta Menegatti of Italy on Saturday in the round of 16.
Meanwhile, Heather Bansley and Liz Maloney of Toronto dropped their third round robin match to finish at 0-3 and did not advance.

Community Saddened By Park Fire
Kids and parents in Pendleton are heart broken at the loss of a playground after it goes up in flames, and fire officials say the fire is suspicious.
"I can not find any direct cause at that point- still working on ruling out all accidental causes, but its still a suspicious origin," says fire marshall Tyler Nokes.
Just after midnight Saturday morning Pendelton firefighters responded to this park on the 400 block of Despain Avenue.
The fire ripped through the wooden structure destroying a community project and thousands of memories for everyone nearby.
"I have a lot of memories and I'm sure a lot of people in the community do and its very upsetting for everybody," says Matthew Bahr.
City officials are hoping to tear down the playground sometime this week, and say they are committed to rebuilding it.

Thank you Maile. I love Colorado. I want to stay. But we shall see how things pan out. It seems I may be teaching science to high school students while getting my second Masters, now, just because it has been a rough go with everything. But also because I love to teach kids about the outdoors. And I am good at it- and giving to the greater good by doing so.

Hello Maile,
Thank you for the kind words. I truly enjoy your posts as well and have really enjoyed this site. I am excited to watch it grow. I try to bring sound reasoning to the table when I post (I don't like one liners too much as you can probably tell). I figure if I can't contribute in a constructive way I will simply keep my fingers tied. :)
I look forward to discussing things with you and hope that you get that career you are looking for.

Hi Maile, I finally got the dog pics up from Halloween, take a look! I agree with Shari, that pic of your dog's mouth is worthy of publishing, a calendar maybe? For doggie dentists? Enjoy! Talk soon, S.

Hi Maile, Thank you for your kind words. You took some gorgeous photos! Don't you just love the Smithsonian? The one pic of your dog with his mouth open wide is so funny. It's great when you can take photos that are so candid. Looks like we have a lot in common. That Dexter show is one of my favorites too. (I keep thinking about the Barbie in the frig -crazy, huh? Makes you wonder how the writers come up with stuff like that!) Hope you have a great week and thanks again.

Close to Toronto and Montreal (a positive to being in Flint for now), I guess that's something to consider. I've been to Toronto for a day-conference, but basically stayed in a building so didn't get to see much. One of my girlfriends lived in Montreal and loved it so... I wouldn't mind visiting there. And you're right, snow in the winter or a white Christmas is always exhilarating! Love the snow, but not freezing temperatures so... works out for me since when it snows... it's not as cold:-). How're you liking Alabama?
