Prominent Jew Is i
Zeppelin Passenger
SProbably the most forlorn
of all the "Zeppelin" passen-
gers that arrived last Satur-
day in Lakewood at the Naval
base was the lone Jewish pas-
senger, Dr. Herman Bart, Di-
rector of the Ministry of the
Interior of Germany. One of
the first questions propound-
ed by him was "Is this Satur-
day" and when the reply was
in the affirmative his face
expressed deep sorrow. Dr.
Bart is an extremely pious
Je though only forty years
of age and one of the most
prominent Socialists in Ger-
many, and this is the first
time he has ever traveled on
Saturday. Because Lakewood
is a Naval reservation he was
compelled to leave during the
day and could not remain un-
till sunset as he earnestly re-
quested of the Commandant.
Asking for permission to re-
main on board the Zeppelin
he found the regulations
would not even permit this,
and quoting the Hebrew
phrase "Peekuach nefesh
docheh Shabbos" he left for
New York. When asked as to
the food he ate on the trip be-
cause of his known observ-
ance of Kashruth he replied
that his diet consisted solely
of sardines, eggs, raw vege-
ales and -such-similar foods
the Kashruth of which could
not be questioned. Dr. Bart
is one of the most prominent
Zionists in Germany and has
been one of the most prom-
inent figures in Republican
Germany always on the guard
to prevent the carrying out
of anti-semitic propaganda by
his constant attacks against
anti-semitism in the German
Dr. Bart though urged to
remain ih New York for a
visit since this is his first
trip to this Country, was
forced to return by his duties
on board the Zeppelin which
left on Monday for Spain and

Is Organized
As we are going to press a
meeting is being called for the
formation of a strictly Ortho-
dox Jewish Synagogue in Mi-
ami. The committee in charge
is arranging for the High
Holiday Services to be held
here and already arrange
ments have been made for thE
leasing of a suitable hall t(
accommodate several hundred
worshippers. A cantor is now
being negotiated for and an
nouncement is expectettto bE
made shortly.
At the same time the or-
ganization now being formed
is modeled after one in New
York city, providing for sick
benefits, etc., during member-
ship and for burial rites at
death, wit hlife insurance to
a dependent relative in the
event of death. A cemetery
is also being negotiated for in
the Northwestern section of
the City adjoining what once
was a Catholic burial ground.
We hope to be able to an-
nounce the members of the
committee in our next issue.

When I was a small boy in the country we had a good
old neighbor named Daniel Roe, who owned a cranberry mea-
dow. He brought the water for flooding his meadow through
a deep ditch from a lake about a quarter of a mile away.
Half of every summer of his Ife he spent digging out
the dirt and stones which had fallen into the ditch.
We kids used to go over and watch him dig. There was a
big stone by the side of the ditch which was shaped roughly
like an arm chair. There he would eat his lunch at noon, and
smoke his pipe. We called the stone Mr. Roe's chair.
In fullness of time he died. His son sold the meadow, and
it was abandoned. My father bought the ditch, most of which
ran through our woods, and every summer we fill a little piece
of it up with junk and garbage and cover it over with dirt.
Last summer I walked through the woods and stopped
at Mr. Roe's chair. Already the ditch is half destroyed. In
five years more it will be gone.
All his sweat and strain and backache for nothing. No
trace of his life work left!
In a New York club I talked with an eminent architect,
who said that the glorious days had vanished from his pro-
fession. The architects of Greece and Rome left monuments
that are eternal. The modern architect has no such hope.
He himself had designed three houses in New York so magni-
ficent that he expected them to carry his name to future
generations. All three have been torn down to make way
for apartment buildings.
I talked with a clergyman who had recently visited a city
parish where he had labored successfully thirty years ago.
That portion of the city has now become a slum. The old
families have scattered to the suburbs. The church is closed.
"What is left," he exclaimed sadly, "to show for all my
I told him that people are left-the sons and daughters of
the men and women to whom his sermons were preached.
"Your hearers trained their children in righteousness,"
I said, "and they will train their children."
We can't fight change, and it is well that we can't. How
dull life would be if everything were permanent. How won-
derful that each new generation has the fun of taking the
world apart and putting it together again.
The church may be closed, the house torn down, the
ditch filled up. But Mr. Roe and the architect and the preach-
er each built a monument in the lives of the people whom he

A. P. Giannini told a Congressional
crcw..::tece the other day that branch
I ank'ing would eventually supersede
the present system of independent
local banks in the United States, as it
has done in Canada and largely in
England. Small villages, he said, can-
not support a bank with sufficient re-
sources to meet the growing indus-
trial needs of small towns.
Mr. Giannini is probably right.
There are good-sized cities in the
United States whose progress has been
held back by lack of adequate local
banking capital and by the narrow
outlook of local bankers. The pre-
judice against "chain" ownership of
any kind of business extends to banks
as well as to stores, but as in the case
of chain stores, the remedy is in the
hands of the community. Independent
banks, like retailers, can compete with
"chain" institutions if they will adopt
the modern methods of the chains and
provide themselves with sufficient re-
sources to make competition effective.

The Veterans Bureau has finished
its rehabilitation work with men who
were injured in the World War, and
reports that every man who Is capable
of any sort of productive effort is
now at work somewhere. But the
Federal Government is cooperating
with the states to provide the same
sort of rehabilitation training for vic-
tims of industrial accidents and of
crippling diseases like infantile paral-
ysis. Only a few states are giving
cooperation, but in those surprising
results have been achieved.
Leaving out the benefit to society by
not having to support the cripple in
idleness, there is a definite value to
the injured person in the discovery
that he is still able to earn a living.
Customs officials in Seattle recently
seized 120 copies of a German medical
book, imported by a Seattle dealer
for sale to the medical men of the
Northwest. The ground for the seiz-
ure was that the contents of the book
were "indelicate." The book is a
learned treatise on biology, which
word is merely a technical term
meaning "life."
Life, apparently, is indelicate, in
the eyes of the United States Cus-
toms. But human life only. Nobody
tries to suppress books which deal
with the breeding of livestock, dogs
or poultry. Only when a book sug-
gests that the life processes of human
beings are similar to those of other
animals do well-meaning but stupid
officials interfere.
Victor V. Green runs what he calls
"The Most Low-Down Paper on
Earth." Its title is the Caochella
Valley Submarine and it is published
at Coachella, Riverside County, Cali-
fornia, 76 feet below sea level.
Editor Green has a sense of humor,
as is evidenced by the sub-title of
his paper. He also has a sense of re-
sponsibility to his thriving agricultu-
ral community, as the local news in
the "Submarine" clearly shows.
There are other valleys in Califor-
nia the bottoms of which are even
farther below the level of the Pacifi,
Ocean than this one. They are becei
of ancient lakes which were once L-ay
of the ocean before some prehisto;i:
earthquake raised the land between
(them and th'e sea.
Old ocean beds make good farns
everywhere. Holland's farms are
almost entirely on reclaimed sea-bot-

land has only lately been reclaimc:j

The National Capital is rapidly bk-
coming the most beautiful city ii
America, one of the most beautiful
cities of the world. I first went to
Washington as a boy, nearly fifty
years ago, and have seen it grow fro-n

beautiful structures and monuments,
into something which now begins to
resemble the harmonious, stately de-
sign of the great Frenchman, Major
L'Enfant, whom George Washingl
ton employed to lay out the city
named after himself.
Just now there is being spent in
Washington on public buildings and
grounds, parkways and the like, a
total of $314,250,000.
Washington was planned to face
East and South' from the Capitol and
the White House, respectively. Real
estate speculators of the 1790's
bought up the desirable lots and held
them at such 'high' prices that the city
grew North and West instead and

Will pleated skirts be worn this
summer? is a question that read-
ers often ask, and it is a question
that we ask ourselves when we
take inventory of the clothes we
have on hand.
The answer to the question is
that pleated skirts will be worn,
but there -is a decided difference
between the pleated skirts of last
season and the season before and
those of today. The side pleated
skirt set on a deep yoke to be
worn with long overblouses has
little place in an up-to-date ward-
robe because blouses of the new
sort are either worn tucked in or
else they are so short as to ex-
tend only a little below a normal
The new pleaded skirts are us-
ually made with a smooth yoke
and the pleating is wide and flar-
ing. Sometimes the material of
the skirt is set in fairly wide
pleats which are stitched down to
form a deep hip yoke, and the
doubling of the material beneath
the wide pleats is cut out at the
under side so as to eliminate un-
necessary bulkiness.
Some of the new box pleats are
pressed in such a way that they
stand out in a truly box-like man-
An advantage of the wide box
pleat over the narrow side pleat
is that it may easily be re-pressed
at home or by the tailor, without
being sent to a professional

For several years women have
been wishing for a radical change
in fashions. They have grown im-
patient of the slow changes that
have made it possible every sea-
son to wear last year's clothes
with little or no alteration. Now
the change has come, and dresses,
hats and wraps that we wore last
spring look at least ten years out
of date.
The task of lengthening a dress
that has a deep hem that is not
much worn is not at all difficult.
If the mark of the first hem does
not come out in the cleaning pro-
cess it is possible to cover it by
means of rows of stitching. Eve-
ning dresses and afternoon dresses
with draped skirts can be length-
ened by means of flounces or pan-
els of contrasting material. One
way of lengthening the silk dress-
es is by means 'of a ruffle of
knife-pleated material applied to
the bottom of the skirt as shown
in the picture. If the material of
the dress cannot be exactly match-
ed contrasting material may be
used, which should be introduced
somewhere else in the dress in or-
der to disguise the utilitaiean pur-
pose of the -hem ruffle.

The center-pole of the human "circus-tent," flippantly
speaking. A column of vertebrae set one upon another, and
bound together by the toughest and most durable of fibrous
tissue known.
Its outstanding purposes are, first, to provide a very se-
cure housing for that most important, major bundle of nerves
called the spinal cord; it is a housing which is almost invul-
nerable against outside influence, and only the most violent
force can break its continuity. Second, it must permit motiofi
necessary for almost every phase of human activity, in which
respect it is' certainly a marvel of divine construction. It is
built to stand a hundred years of active service-a thing no
human contrivance can do.
I believe the human lumbar spine is the most powerful
animal structure of which we have knowledge.
And yet, there are individuals who suppose that the seg-
ments called vertebrae slip about and become "luxated" as
easily as would a string of spools, the plaything of a child
of the seamstress. And, I have met people who honestly
believed that all diseases of men and women are caused by
the spinal vertebrae slipping from their hard-and-fast moor-
ings; and that all such ailments can be put to rout by the
proper replacement of the "slipped" vertebrae.
And, I know a good many people who don't believe any-
thing of the kind-being one myself; I wouldn't want my
vertebrae skidded around, even if -such a thing were possible;
in fact, a great Creator fashioned man so as to keep that very
thing from being done.
Nevertheless, there is good in everything-including a
sock in the spine. A sudden impact against the locality of a
nerve-trunk s. a valuable stimulant in certain conditions; I
have seen good done in that way, hence do not condemn the
intelligent use of the short-arm jolt, or the Leyden-jar spark
-in fact anything used with capable understanding.

Empty Feeling
What appeared to be a tough loss, suddenly became an improbable victory and even more suddenly, ended up as a painful walk-off loss.
Brad, pitching in his fourth straight game, didn't have it. Afterwards, he admitted he had an empty tank.
Going into the 9th, the NL's highest-scoring machine had seen 127 pitches. They trailed, 3-2, both runs coming on homers by Rollins, the first two pitches he saw in the game. The offense finished the game 2-for-14 with runners in scoring position. Sort of an empty tank.
The two run-scoring hits came in the ninth, Big Ben's pinch double and Shane's triple. Big Ben's RBI was the first by a Phillies pinch hitter since Stairs homered off the Pirates' Capps on July 11. Since then, Matt is hitless in 23 at-bats. Charlie put in the lineup last night to get some Abs, but Matt went 0-for-2. Charlie had done the same thing with Eric on Sunday and his bat came alive, including a pinch-hit last night.
The Phillies lead the Braves and Marlins by seven games. The two smallest crowds in the NL yesterday where in Atlanta and Florida. Speaking of empty.
A Reminder
Sunday's game with the Braves at Citizens Bank Park has been moved to 8:05 p.m. for an ESPN Sunday Night telecast.
Minor League Notes
Lakewood speedsters, CF Anthony Gose and 2B Harold Garcia, each stole a base last night. #70 for Gose; 38 for Garcia. RHP Jesus Sanchez (10-6) pitched 7 shutout innings for the win, his seventh in his last eight decisions. The 21-year old came to the Phillies in the Abreu deal with the Yankees as a catcher and was put on the mound late last season . . . Closers B.J. Rosenberg (Reading) and Michael Schwimer (Clearwater) each recorded their 20th save of the season. Schwimer is one of eight Phillies minor leaguers who will play in the Arizona Fall League . . . Brett Myers pitches tonight in Reading.

Courtney, I share your obsession with silver and also had a thing for chairs. Monogrammed pieces have their own personalities and add such joy to the table. Years ago my silver quest was for salt cellar spoons. I had to stop when I decided I really didn't need more than 30. LOLReplyDelete
Lovely collection, love the tarnished look!
Great idea on how you have them stored in drawers!
Have a wonderful week!
Oh what a great collection. So pretty!!ReplyDelete
its so pretty!!!ReplyDelete
Wow Courtney, now these I call a FIND! Love silver too and maybe I have an obsession too. Lovely collection! Hugs,
Tout comme vous j'aime la belle argenterie...
Gros bisous
Yes I love the one little thing that can start it all.. CLOCKS is my newest . Little old ones LOL .. Bowls another LOL ..........Blessings my sweet blogging sister ..........Sherry @ The Rusty PearlReplyDelete
I love vintage silver, too -- I have a complete set of my own from years ago, but love picking up the odd pieces to give a variety. Nice post!
xo Heidi
Beautiful silver collection! Lovely photo's!
Beautiful collection, I love it.ReplyDelete
Vintage silver is a favorite of mine as well. Love how you use the sewing drawers for your flatware. There is something about the patina of a tarnished silver piece that draws me in. Thanks for sharing,
Lovely, Courtney. I have a bit of a silver obsession too. Thanks for sharing. Great idea to use the old sewing drawers for storage. I use crocks.ReplyDelete
Courtney, I love monograms, too. And details on everything. I love that you store the silver in old sewing machine drawers which I also love. Aren't we blessed to be passionate people?ReplyDelete
LOL! I too..... have a "vintage" obsession.
I love vintage silver and have amassed quite a collection. I think they are much prettier than those you see today.
I also love vintage chairs! That's funny....... we cleaned out the garage a couple of months ago and I was shocked at how many I have. I not only use them in the house but out doors as well.......... on the porch, the deck, in the garden and in my shabby shed. A girl can't have to many chairs or to much silver!
Thanks for sharing your lovelies with us.
Will visit again soon.
I never knew vintage silver could be so lovely!
My not so secret obsession is Princess House Crystal and lovely clear glass vases. I'm thinking about branching out to white vases and pitchers for flowers.
I am looking at my little collection of vintage silver and wishing it could turn into a nice collection like you have! Your photos are beautiful and I live the styling of them also...JanetReplyDelete
Beautiful....pinned it!ReplyDelete
I have been a chair collector over the years, too. I am slowly getting rid of them. I love them- new/old/battered/bruised...doesn't matter. Love your silver- I like that, too.
I am giving a little nod to you on my blog tomorrow about your feature in March's Romantic Homes- xo Diana
I love old silverware, too, Courtney. I treasure the sets that my mother, grandmother, and MIL gave to me over the years. Full sets ~ in beautiful hinged storage boxes ~ of glorious silvery history. Seeing your monogrammed pieces makes me wonder what the family was like that owned that piece, you know? Such wonderful history behind every single one. A story in itself.... :)
xoxo laurie
What a beautiful collection Courtney! I have some silver pieces too.Although I don't really collect it but love to use it.I have not monogram piece those are a true gem!Oh yes the chair obsession.I think I have that one now too.I have a chair I am working on.And I keep finding worn chippy original paint pieces that I just love.I need to stop though!My husband is going to think I am crazy LOL!
Beautiful photos!
What a cute idea. I have lots of old silver plate, but never thought of storing them in the cute old sewing drawers! I may have to steal your idea.ReplyDelete
Beautiful, you take the best pictures!ReplyDelete
What a great post! My grandmother ALWAYS used silver, and she had the most beautiful mish-mash collection. I remember pulling open her kitchen drawer and inspecting the variations on the handles. I also love monograms, but I have to say that flowers are my favorites. Thanks for sharing!
Beautiful! I love silver when it takes on a patina as well... there is something tougher and more edgy about it when it's all rough and dark :-)ReplyDelete
A gorgeous collection. I love finding other like-minded silver collectors!
- Nan
The monogrammed pieces are my faves, too and your pieces are just lovely! :) I like how you wrapped the little blooms with them!ReplyDelete
Beautiful silver collection...I try to collect my monogram, but "S's" are harder to find, so I collect ones with pretty details...Such a great idea to store them in the sewing machine drawers! Looking forward to seeing your "other obsession"...ReplyDelete
Think I need to find more pieces! Have my great grandma's iced tea spoons...lovely. Last summer they lived in a lovely French canning jar on my counter. Bet they make a return appearance before long!ReplyDelete
Oh Courtney~ I'm with ya girl!
I can't leave the silver alone, eSPECIALly when monogrammed!
And it's totally my favorite thing to mix and match all the patterns!
Such a pretty collection, love that they aren't all the same!
Funny.....I posted about my newest collection(or obsession is probably a better term) too! And I know what you mean about collecting large items....I've had to give it up cause there is no more room...haha.
Enjoy your week,
This is such a beautiful post. Your choice is different from other. I like it so much. Thank you for sharing.ReplyDelete
I can never resist dishes and flowers for the garden. We all have to have our fun :-)ReplyDelete
Wow, what a great collection you have here Courtney, me too I am obsessed of silver...I guess only werewolf who are not obsessed of silver they were afraid of it...LOL By the way thanks for sharing :)ReplyDelete
Hi Courtney!!
I've always loved silver from when a great aunt lived with us and I use to polish her silver back in the ''70s. When she passed it went to my mom and mom and I use to polish it together and have a great time chatting. It will come to me...
When my hubby and I use to go to flea markets and garage sales I would pick-up some great pieces. Once I bought a 6 place set. Just beautiful!! I love the idea of the sewing drawers. I love wooden boxes and baskets to put them in.
I love to think where they were and what beautiful china went with them. Just fun stuff to think about.
Do you collect silver plated or sterling silver?ReplyDelete
I love antique silver! but my obsession is glasses, chrystal, venetian, clear or colorful, modern or ornate. My cabinets are bursting at the seam with glassesReplyDelete
Simply beautiful, just like everything you do! Can't wait to see your other "obsession"!
Be well my friend,
Dito, I love the vintage silverware and hoard it
Oh, how pretty - thanks for sharing!ReplyDelete
Hello Courtney,
Looks like we both love colleting vintage silverware, and yes, finding engraved pieces is a bonus!!
I think you have inspired me to start collecting vintage silverware too, it's SO pretty. Love your blog, you have such a great way of styling your photos.ReplyDelete
Gorgeous post as usual. I love chairs too. My husband almost divorced me over the amount of "chairs" I had stored in the garage at one point waiting for thier makeovers!ReplyDelete
Courtney: While in Goodwill I found a bag of silver knives and forks with MOP handles with no price. The man who works there wrote $2.99 on the bag. There were 8 knives and 8 forks. Oh Happy Day!! I had fun polishing them and seeing the beautiful shine.ReplyDelete
Beautiful collection Courtney! I too have a drawer full of silver plate mismatch but am also,lucky to have a set of matched sterling. It is so beautiful I rarely use it......I really should...ReplyDelete
Thanks for the display ideas for my booth in the antique mall. I can hardly wait to try the storage idea, and tieing the pieces with a ribbon and flower, plus pairing tarnish and polished. I too enjoy polishing the silver, and it looks so pretty when finished.ReplyDelete
I'm in love with tarnish silver myself. Your collection is fabulous. Thanks for sharing.
Miss Ellie
I've collected rare, mostly Victorian-era, silver flatware for years. It does become an obsession. Nothing like a Shiebler Etruscan cheese scoop or a Tiffany Indian serving spoon to get my blood racing. It's expensive but probably a good investment over time.ReplyDelete

Wooh! College!This weekend, alumni and students alike partied in Ithaca for Cornell's Homecoming celebration. And in what has become a tradition at American Universities, the Ivy League school held a massive concert to cap it all off — Electronic Dance Music DJ Avicii performed.
That's when things got wild. According to the Cornell Daily Sun, 6 people ended up in the hospital after the concert spun out of control. That's on top of reports of forcible touching in the concert ticket line, defecation on school bleachers, alcohol and drug abuse.
Check out a few great quotes from The Cornell Daily Sun that can paint the picture for you:
- "We try to keep those bleachers open so people have the chance to sit, but we never imagined that people would start relieving themselves in the bleachers,"(Dave) Rodriguez said. "It completely baffles me that somebody would think that was an OK thing to do … [it was] definitely a first."
- "There was definitely a lot of rolling [on ecstasy] going on; I saw it numerous times firsthand," he (one student) said. "The comment from most people was that it was as hardcore as any concert that you could hope for that wasn't part of a festival. It was definitely the craziest I've seen at Cornell."
- Jayant Mukhopadhaya '15 said he had a "creepy" experience during the concert…."There was this really funny moment when this guy tried to jump on my shoulders — not just once, but twice," Mukhopadhaya, who is also a designer at The Sun, said. "He half got up on my shoulders and then asked me to put him down. So I put him down and 15 minutes later he jumped on me again."
Sounds wild, right? We knew we had to see how all of this looked, so we contacted Cornell alums, hit up Twitter and Instagram, and found a bunch of photos of the event.

nuccachiro brauchte ein neues Logo Design und hat einen Wettbewerb auf 99designs gestartet.
Aus 61 Designs von 20 Designern wurde eine Gewinner gewählt.
I need a logo that defines my brand and is intelligent. This logo must let potential patients know that my office is different from other chiropractic and on the leading edge of the profession. I would like the logo to be balanced with graphics that communicate the highly analytical, intellectual nature of what I do (represented in the name with the word "Intelligent", with the more metaphysical, harmonious message (represented by the word "Balance.")
Intelligent Balance Spinal Care
I want a logo design that essentially represents what I do. The technique I practice is very different from other chiropractic techniques. First it is highly analytical in that we study the biomechanics of our patients using the most precise radiographic (xray) equipment available. Our work is critical as we are taking pressure off the brain stem and restoring balance to the body. It requires absolute precision. We work to balance the entire body's structure by removing interference to the nervous system often caused by misalignments to the upper cervical spine.
Therefore, the ideal logo would be one that communicates the following themes in symbol or representation -- highly analytical/technical/precise, balance/harmony, new/fresh/innovative.
- Item 1 - The logo must include the name "Intelligent Balance Spinal Care"
- Color Schemes: I like purple and silver and white together, or a green/black and white that really represents "being alive" or life. I am open to other color schemes
- The finished product must be in a vector format that can be manipulated by Adobe Illustrator or Photoshop. Also, the designer must be willing to give me full rights of the artwork after payment is rendered.
- I don't want the logo to contain a photograph. Just original graphics.
- I don't want anything to do with a balancing scale or teeter-totter or ying-yang

Hello everyone! Today I will be taking part in a collab with Carol in honor of our 1st blogiversary, since we started our blogs only a few days apart from each other.
I'm sure a lot of you can relate to some point in your blogging life when you're wondering why no one is following or commenting on your blog. I can very much relate to that.
So that's why I'm posting 6 not-so-secret blogging tips here, and over at Carol's lovely blog, she is posting 6 more tips
woah win win. Don't forget to check out her blog and her post! She is a lovely person and an amazing blogger. 🙂
Without further ado, let's dive in.
1. Interact with other's and make yourself known
This is the most important thing you can do to increase readers on your blog. From the small group of bloggers that you know, you can find bloggers that they know. When you discover a blog, don't just like their post, leave a comment and hit that follow button if you like their content. If you comment, they will most likely want to check out your blog because they know you took the time to read their post.
Do button swaps. If you don't know what this is, it is basically a way you can advertise your blog. You can check out my button swaps page here. You comment on other blogger's button swap pages and ask to swap. If they agree, you can then put their button on your page, and they will put yours on theirs. Add the link to their blog on the button the same way you add a link to text, and when people click on the button, it will lead them directly to that person's blog. Same for your button.
I've discovered quite a few bloggers through this. If you don't have a blog button, there are a lot of bloggers who would be willing to make one for you for free, like Design Pique Studios, Megan@ABarefootGal, Carol or Syd & Em. Or you could simply throw one together at Canva. 🙂
2. Be your awesome self
I'll admit; sometimes I waste my time looking at other blogs and wishing I could be as good as them. And it's not bad to want your blog to succeed. In fact, it'll push you to strive to make your blog the best it can be, and other blogs can certainly be that inspiration. Not that I'm saying it's good to be jealous. 😉
But different bloggers have different styles. What would the world be like if all blogs were the same? No variety. It would be bland and boring. It's your blog. People want to see YOU. Don't be worried that people won't like your blog if you're not like the other's. Just do your best, and try to succeed, because you will.
I know I want to read about your life, and your experiences. I know other bloggers would love to read that too. So believe in yourself. You never know! What you write could inspire people in ways you couldn't imagine.
3. Add the follow button to your sidebar
Believe me. Adding that little follow button is going to increase your follower count. How can people follow you if that button isn't there? Imagine how disappointing it would be for them to read your awesome content and then realize that they can't follow you?
*sobs into pillow*
So please. For the benefit of yourself and others, add the follow button to your sidebar. How hard can it be? 😉
4. Break up the text in your posts
Breaking up the text into easy to digest bite sized chunks can make it easier for your readers to enjoy your posts. I find that when text is clumped too close together, I skim over it (I know I shouldn't, but admit it; you do too 😉 ).
But you shouldn't waste space and break up your text into one sentence in a paragraph. Because while breaking up text is good, if you over do it, it can be extremely annoying, and will probably ruin the essence of your post.
5. Add the comment section to your "about page" and posts
People love to be able to comment on your posts. Especially your "about page". Your "about page" is where people can meet you, tell you a little bit about themselves, and express common hobbies or personalities between the two of you. And if you don't have a comment section, your readers would have to find another place to comment it on, and it would be kind of awkward and cumbersome for them.
Ya know whattai mean?
The same goes for your posts. If you don't know how to enable comments on your post/page, on the post settings sidebar on your post, simply click on 'more options' at the bottom then check the 'allow comments' box. And BABAM!
(who else watches good luck charlie) A comment section! 😀
6. Don't post too little and inactively
If you suddenly stop blogging for a month without letting your readers know, they will probably think you've died (JK) or left the blogging world forever, and probably unfollow.
Set a blogging schedule for yourself.
Be consistent. That'll show readers your dedication to your blog, and encourage them to be consistent on their blog as well.
And there you have it! 6 quite easy to do tips to up your stats. 🙂
Thank you so much for reading!
Also, I know I said that I would do an art exhibit featuring my brother's artwork, but he doesn't have that much at the moment, and also doesn't want me sharing them here. I'm really sorry!
and the chat with me is baaaaaack #triumphantreturn
so! what did you think of our not-so-secret tips? | do you have any 'secrets' of your own? | did you find these tips helpful? | did you just celebrate your blogiversary? | did you check out Carol's lovely post? | how has your day been?
Happy blogging! 🙂
~ Smile! God loves you. ~

J/95 Sailing Test & Report
When the J/95 was first launched, the designer Rodney Johnstone took the J/95 out on her maiden voyage. Here's his report:
"The J/95 passes the performance test with flying colors. We exited New England Boatworks in Portsmouth, RI at 6.5 knots under power (2800rpm) and goosed it up to 7.2 knots at 3,200rpm before we hoisted the sails (Main and 105% jib.) I did not floor it the first time out, but we were not maxed out on the rpm, so I suspect we could hit 7.5 knots in smooth water, and we confirmed this later.
We sailed upwind in a 10-12 knot NE wind with occasional higher puffs and lower lulls on the upper bay - starting out with the centerboard all the way up. The boat felt lively and the helm was balanced. We tacked through about 80 to 90 degrees, and did not seem to make any noticeable leeway. The boat sails better than most keel boats upwind despite the the board being up, so it passes the fun-to-sail-anywhere-in-3.5'-of-water test. When we lowered the board you could feel the whole boat hook in and want to climb into the wind more. So the boat is definitely more close-winded and makes less leeway with the board down. 6.5 knots seemed to be our average upwind speed. We used the onboard GPS, and we were out at slack tide beginning to ebb, so we are confident in the accuracy of our observed speed and sailing angles.
Steering control with twin rudders is great when the boat heels over. We were able to bear off sharply and quickly from a heeled 6.5 knot upwind course to downwind without easing the sails - an instantaneous downwind stop-the-boat move which may be a unique capability of this boat. The rudders and the Edson wheel steering system provide total control without sacrificing the light helm feel that we all cherish, and make for effortless steering.
Acceleration out of tacks and maneuverability are excellent. Stability to handle the sail horsepower seems just right. The boat does not need a genoa in 10 knots of breeze. We had only four of us on the boat - Craig Crossley, Skip Mattos, Al and myself.
We set the 82 square meter chute and were going between 7 and 8 knots at true wind angles averaging about 135 degrees. The highest speed of 7.9 was when we heated it up for the photographer (Jeff).
The 6:1 rope tackle hoisting system for the centerboard works easily and quickly, even under a full side load."
J/95: A Mini Review
The J/95 was named CRUSING WORLD'S 2010 "Domestic Boat of the Year" and the "Best Weekender."
>Carol Vernon reviews this new centerboard cruiser for the Cruising World 2010 Sailboat Show held in Annapolis, Maryland. "Hold onto your hats, J-Boats is now entering the centerboard world with a sleek offering that is bound to be fast. Built to ISO standards for boat crossing oceans in up to Force 10 winds, this boat can also skim across bays in just 3' of water. Twin rudders provide control at all depth and a bronze centerboard adds performance in deeper waters.
More than a day sailer, below are 4 bunks, an enclosed head, and a Yanmar diesel, making short cruises realistic. The rig and deck layout are clean and simple but all the gear is in place for racing. Carbon mast and retractable bow sprit are optional."
Governor of Rhode Island Attends
"Boat of the Year" Awards Ceremony
Boat of the Year trophies from both Cruising World and Sailing World were presented to J/Boats.
Commented Cruising World's Bill Springer, "The dignitaries attending the festitivities and Awards Ceremony included George Brengle, CW/SW's director of marketing, Dave Reed, SW's editor, Mark Pillsbury, CW's editor, Rhode Island Governor Donald L. Carcieri, J/Boat designers Rod and Alan Johnstone, J/Boats President Jeff Johnstone, and Sally Helme, CW/SW's publisher.
The production floor of the CCF Composites shop where the J/95 (and other J's are currently built) was recently turned over to a long list of sailing and political dignitaries who were on hand celebrate the J/95 being named CW's Domestic Boat of the Year and Best Weekender. In addition to the Governor, members of the Rhode Island State Legislature and other local officials were also present. J/Boats President Jeff Johnstone accepted the awards and trophies from CW editor Mark Pillsbury and SW editor Dave Reed."

Happy Birthday!
In honor of my boyfriend's birthday I made him these delicious red velvet cupcakes. It is hard to believe, but he really does not like birthday cake. Somehow red velvet became one of the few cakes he actually enjoys. I found these cup cakes on Joy the Baker, and thought they would make the perfect birthday cupcake. I also paired them with Joy's Brown Sugar Cream Cheese Frosting. The cake was good, but when paired with the frosting it became an amazing cupcake. I brought eight of the cupcakes into work assuming my boyfriend and I could not eat all 21 that I made ( we easily could have). After the first eight were devoured, my coworkers were distraught when I did not bring any in the next day. Needless to say these were great cupcakes and definitely beat the cherry cobbler I made for my boyfriend's birthday last year.
Red Velvet Cupcakes
2 cups all-purpose flour
3 teaspoons baking powder
1/4 teaspoon salt
10 Tablespoons unsalted butter, softened
1 cup sugar
2 large eggs
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 cup milk
1 - 3 Tablespoon(s) red food coloring (depending on how bright you want them)
Put a rack in the center of the oven and preheat oven to 350 degrees F. Line a muffin tin with cupcake liners and set aside.
Sift together flour, baking powder and salt into a bowl. Set aside.

AL DIVISION SERIES: TIGERS v YANKEES
October 5, 2006
Marcus Thames
Justin Verlander
NEW YORK CITY, NEW YORK: Game Two
Q. Justin, when you saw Leyland coming out to the mound with a 1-1 count, mid at-bat, they showed a shot of you on TV and obviously you looked a little bit surprised. What were you thinking?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: Yeah, that was the first time all year I've been taken out mid-count like that.
Obviously I was disappointed. I think anybody that's competitive wants to be out there and have the ball, but, you know, I have the utmost faith in our bullpen and Jamie came in and did a great job for us.
Q. What does this show to the rest of the country? I think some of you guys feel that you've been overlooked and underestimated?
MARCUS THAMES: Just the 25 guys in the clubhouse, we never give up and that's the main thing. We have a great leader in Skipper and he won't let us give up until we've played until the last out in the ninth inning.
Q. For a guy who was drafted by this organization to come in here in this setting, what does it mean to you what you've done?
MARCUS THAMES: It's a lot. Every time I come here I'm going to do something. I was drafted by the Yankees, I had my first Major League hit here and every time I come here, I want to do something.
It's exciting to be in the post-season, playing against them, you know, being in their Minor League system, watching them go to the playoff and championships all the time and wanting to be a piece of that and I wasn't. Now being part of the Tigers versus the Yankees, it's been an awesome feeling so far.
Q. You were sick there for a while, and it's almost like you came off your death bed or something, got three hits today and everybody is in wonderment, you haven't played in a while, and it's like you're red hot.
MARCUS THAMES: I had a tough bug, I couldn't eat or swallow food or drink water and I lost about five or six pounds and I was weak for a little while. Now I'm back, healthy and ready and ready to help the ballclub however I can.
Q. You pitched a great ballgame, you seem a little surprised when Jim came out, did he tell you why he was taking you out?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: No.
Q. Well, he told us, I'll tell you, he said because you're speed had been so high and all of a sudden it was falling off to 92 and he thought maybe you were losing it just a bit.
JUSTIN VERLANDER: I had a good indication that it was that. Obviously I didn't know exactly what I was throwing. You know this is the first time in a while I think I've gotten up to over a hundred. I think that concerned him a little bit.
He's a great Skip, and when he comes out to take me out of the ballgame, I never second guess him.
Q. As someone who was taken full advantage of an opportunity to play every day this year, or a lot this year, what does it mean to you personally to come through when it means the most right now?
MARCUS THAMES: Just go back to the time when I was down and out in the Minor Leagues and not given a chance to play in the big leagues. Just try to take advantage of it. You know, whenever my name is called upon and my name is on the lineup card I want to go out and do something to help the ballclub. Whichever way that is, if I come in and pinch-hit or start the ballgame, I just want to do something to help the ballclub.
Q. Is it nice not to prove yourself?
MARCUS THAMES: It's awesome, every time you go to the plate, you know you're going to have another at-bat and it gives you a lot of confidence.
Q. Is the family gathering together in Mississippi and what does this mean?
MARCUS THAMES: Yeah, probably everybody's watching and is at my grandmother's house. Everybody is tuning in. They are all excited. They know the long road I've been on to get to this point and they are excited and cheering me on.
Q. For both guys, it's been a while since you've won a baseball game and coming off the field it almost sounded like Game 5, you just clinched it. What was the feeling to finally just get back on the winning side?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: Well, you know, I know for me, it was -- this was extremely exciting. You know, this was a huge win for us. There's no doubt about that. You know, to go home even instead of down two, you know, there's no doubt about it, this was a big game for our team and our confidence.
Q. Back to when Leyland came out to get you, what's it like playing for a guy who does not necessarily manage by the book and just sort of goes by feel?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: I think it's great. He's very personable. He knows when to push guys and when not to, he just knows how handle people. That comes through in his managing. He knows a lot of times to go on his instincts and what moves he thinks are right. He thought it was a great move to bring me out and bring Jamie in in that situation, and obviously it was the right call.
Q. I don't know if you were aware of this or not, but you're 6 out of 7 against Mike Mussina in your career, and he's a great pitcher; why do you have a knack for hitting him of all pitchers?
MARCUS THAMES: I don't know, I just try to be very aggressive against him. I know he's not going to give in to me. So I go up and try to be aggressive and try to get a good pitch to hit and that's what I've been doing against him?
Q. Just curious, do you have any piece of memorabilia from being drafted with the Yankees, your time with them, pair of shorts, anything?
MARCUS THAMES: Trust me, I have a lot of stuff. I have the ball, I have my first glove that I had. When you get drafted they give you a glove. I have a lot of that stuff, trust me.
Q. As starters, you guys were first in the League and I think your bullpen was second in the League. The thought is usually if your starter can keep you in the game, with the way the bullpen has pitched this year, how much easier does that make it on you to try and go out and do just that, keep the team in the game and not try to do too much?
JUSTIN VERLANDER: That's a huge part of it, knowing that, you know, if we keep our team close, if I can go -- usually if I go six innings, that gives our team a great chance if we're close, because a lot of times, our bullpen comes in and shuts the door and allows our offense to try to come back; or if we're ahead, the bullpen comes in and shuts the door and maintains the lead just like they did tonight.

And another thing Eleanor!
Which is not to say I supported John Kennedy when he ran for president, because I didn't. I was for the other fellow. But you know, it's true: when the battle's over and the ground is cooled, well, it's then that you see the opposing general's valor.
But what I want to share from this speech is the end, talking about the history of the White House:
And sometimes I want to say to those who are still in school, and who sometimes think that history is a dry thing that lives in a book: Nothing is ever lost in that great house; some music plays on. I have been told that late at night when the clouds are still and the moon is high, you can just about hear the sound of certain memories brushing by. You can almost hear, if you listen close, the whir of a wheelchair rolling by and the sound of a voice calling out, "And another thing Eleanor!" Turn down a hall and you can hear the brisk strut of a fellow saying, "Bully! Absolutely ripping!" Walk softly now and you're drawn to the soft notes of a piano and a brilliant gathering in the East Room, where a crowd surrounds a bright young president who is full of hope and laughter. History is not only made by people, it is people.
I thought you'd all enjoy that with me! Please follow the link above if you want to read the entire speech (it isn't that long).

I have had the pleasure of being a guest at the White House several times during several different administrations.
My first visit, as a guest, was in 1978 at a tea given by Mrs. Nixon.
It was so thrilling to be seated in a chair that had been owned by President Monroe and served tea and canapes from a service that had belonged to President Jefferson. History was at every gaze.
Imagine, this house also belongs to me; it is on loan to the Presidents and their families!
As a guide, I like to accompany my groups through the White House, it affects me emotionally and I always relate my experiences and thoughts to my students.
The one thing they are required to seek in that house is the prayer that was chisled into the fireplace in the State Dining Room:
"I pray to heaven to bestow the best of blessings on this house and all that hereafter inhabit it...May none but the honest and wise men ever rule under this roof."

I've been in the White House on the regular public tour and I have to admit, it just wasn't that inspiring to me. Not because I wasn't fascinated by the history, but because it was so crowded, we were herded through like cattle and I really felt like I didn't get to see anything. I need to be able to stop and enjoy and you can't do that in the White House anymore - they are afraid you are stopping to set a bomb or something. I'm sure it would be much different to actually be a gues there - not just a random tourist. You are very lucky to have had that pleasure!
