That's Saturday. After the Maine Boats Homes and Harbor's show, in Rockland at The Strand.
Lobster Queens and locals...even my plumber friend who supplies me with hoola hoop parts
I've got twins to show my outfits
With pointed hats natch
Double fun!
Penobscot Marine Museum for more info.

Hi Barbara, if you mean the St. Denis Magazine, it should be available where ever Classic Elite Yarns are sold, as they are the distributor in the US for Veronik's yarn. You can also keep checking the St. Denis website, they should eventually have a list of shops. I'll post a link if I ever find a list. Thanks for visiting and the kind words,

System Administration Practice
Keep Portage Tree Up-To-Date
Even if you're not doing a full update every day, you should sync the portage tree and overlays regularly. It will reduce the time that you need to sync tree before a system upgrade. Also, if you just want to install something, it will be installed with latest deps so you will not waste time on upgrading it later. Here is an example script to upgrade portage and overlay every day. Edit
/etc/cron.daily/autosync.sh with your favorite text editor:
#!/bin/bash log="/var/log/autosync.log" if [ ! -f $log ]; then touch $log chmod 600 $log chown root:root $log fi echo >> $log echo "*** autosync started! ($(date +'%d-%m-%Y %H:%M:%S'))" >> $log echo "*** running emerge --sync" >> $log emerge -q --sync >> $log 2>&1 if [ -f /usr/bin/layman ]; then echo >> $log echo "*** running layman -S" >> $log /usr/bin/layman -S --nocolor >> $log 2>&1 fi
Purge unused distfiles
Distfiles may take up a lot of space on disk, and if you do not clean them from time to time it may become an issue. There are many ways to clean them.
- Remove distfiles which wasn't accessed in last 90 days. (WARNING: It will not work if distfiles are on filesystem with noatime option. You may want think about relatime).
#!bin/bash find /usr/portage/distfiles -maxdepth 1 -type f -atime +90 -exec rm {}
Alternative is using eclean purge utility for distfiles and binary packages, it is part of app-portage/gentoolkit package. Let's say we want to purge distfiles in /usr/portage/distfiles
# eclean-dist -i
This command will prompt for each distfile and ask user's confirmation (can be slow). Example of advanced usage, let's clean all distfiles except for installed packages (exact version), those which are less than one month old, bigger than 50MB, or fetch-restricted:
# eclean-dist -d -t1m -s50M -f
Cron lovers :) clean packages in the safest mode, and then distfiles in deep mode but protecting files less than a week old, every sunday at 1am:
# 0 1 * * sun eclean -C -q packages ; eclean -C -q -d -t1w distfiles

Stefano Pilati's latest collection for Yves Saint Laurent was a mess. And that was precisely the point. An intellectual purist, Pilati is one of those rare designers whose brave lead forges a path for others to inevitably follow. This season, it felt as if he were once again leaping ahead - possibly at such a rate that others will find it nigh-on impossible to comprehend. Certainly, there was plenty of head-scratching during the presentation of his S/S 2010 collection; grimaces colliding with smiles, applause with outright hostility. But a confused response to this willfully confusing collection was understandable, expressing as it did all the profound uncertainty still evident about the role of woman at the start of the twenty-first century. Because Pilati works within a well-established house, it is often inferred that commercialism denies him the opportunity to play these kind of mind-games. But this is simply not true. Indeed, it is a mark of his inestimable skill that Pilati's cerebral, considered clothing plays with the very code of YSL past, present and future to achieve its aims. Was it a coincidence, for example, that the kitsch applique strawberries he splashed across one white gown were a replica of Yves' framboise-strewn organdie blouses from his S/S 2001 Couture collection? Of course not. Likewise the contrast of provincial peasant blouses with kinky, fetishistic leather: the shockant frisson of Yves' 1960 blouson noir reactivated by an injection of our lingering skittishness at a sexually confident woman. What could be more contrasting than a (literally) puritanical Amish blouse tucked in to licentious, crotch-hugging jersey knickers, or a billowing ballgown hitched up to reveal sliced kidskin lederhosen slithering against bare skin? Forget the underwear-as-outerwear cliché. Forget 'new femininity'. In fact, forget all those tired trends proposed as au courant for next season. Pilati was dealing with deeper stuff here. Woman as worker, woman as object, the Madonna-whore principle, austerity versus frivolity, the luxury of exquisite craftsmanship contrasted against an evening-gown rendered in white cotton poplin, edges sliced raw and left to unravel. That minimalism became clinical - in white thermal-bonded jersey boucle and NHS-blue wrap dresses, hanging open at the back like hospital gowns. Femininity became sickeningly saccharine, ruched dresses flecked with florals, ruffles exploding, spiralling and trailing across hemlines, rose thorns clambering across limbs. Extremes were juxtaposed, fused, and collapsed in on each other. It was sexy and sexless, beautiful and hideous, familiar and yet arrestingly new. I'm not sure how well it worked as a fashion show, but as a philosophical exercise it was without comparison. Did I like this collection? No. 'Like' is a phrase that will undoubtedly be absent in discussion of these clothes. It was unlike anything else presented this season, an extraordinary statement, fragmented and shattered, confusing and infuriating - a startling, brutal metaphor for contemporary fashion itself.
