DAY 1: Friday, March 9, 2012
To begin with, March 9 is my birthday–which is traditionally an international holiday–but we had to forgo the festivities on account of me going to SxSWi. I woke up early that day and got a nice gift from my family, lots of hugs and kisses, and then they deposited me at the train station so I could take it downtown to the convention center and avoid traffic and parking.
Here I am, setting out on day one, and looking very tired already:
Yes, after peaking at 90 degrees in February, Austin decided to get dramatically cold and rainy during my birthday week. But I am not one to be deterred, so I landed at the Austin Convention Center by 9:00 am, procured a $5.00 latte (WTF?) and planted myself at an empty table waiting for someone else I knew to arrive.
Soon, my buddy and co-worker Martin Hodges (@mlkingh) showed up and joined me. Then Katherine Ruiz (@katdruiz) of YoMobi.com (one of our sponsors) came and sat with us and gave us business cards, wristbands, and other assorted paraphernalia that we would be distributing throughout the conference. Marla Erwin (@marlaerwin) Official Web Goddess at Whole Foods, and Omar Naseer (@youmobilized), co-founder of YoMobi.com also hung with us for a while until Martin and I decided to go hunt down some breakfast.
The only decent breakfast Martin and I could find in the vicinity which didn't require that we slosh too far through the rain was the crepe place two blocks from the convention center. Unfortunately, everyone else had the same idea:
As we sat in the crepe place, the skies began to open up and we were witness to a torrential downpour the likes of which Austin hasn't seen in many, many months:
We waited for a little while when we were done eating, hoping the rain would let up. But it didn't. So we scuttled back to the convention center as fast as we could, dodging raindrops and puddles with only partial success. Incidentally, I had a freaking AWESOME crepe that had pears, brie, fresh creme and lemon. So I didn't mind getting wet that much.
Our next stop was the Beacon Lounge, a room set up for people who are in the non-profit sector to gather and chill during the hustle and bustle outside. They took an empty meeting room and cozied it up with furniture, twinkle lights, faux candles, and rugs–and played music. It was a perfect place to hang out after running through the cold rain.
Before the panel we went to meet Martin's friend, Shawn Williams (@shawnpwilliams), author of Blogging While Black. Shawn is an amazing guy and he was nice enough to give me a signed copy of his book the next day after I met him. I can't wait to read it.
Finally, I was ready for my first panel at 2:00. I went to see "Social Change, Social Media & Social Filmmaking" featuring:
New media pioneer Dorothy Engelman, who specializes in creating content for non-profits & founder of Get Involved, a network for volunteers; Rob Dyer, founder of Skate4Cancer & star of multiple engaging online videos & short docs; & Sherien Barsoum, former social worker & documentarian behind 'Colour Me'
The panelists all showed some examples of their work on the big screen and then touched on what makes social films compelling. There was a lot of talk about the Kony2012 film which had just exploded all over the internet the week before, and they all agreed that regardless of your views on the organization behind it, the film itself accomplished everything it set out to do. There was also a discussion about the difference between ROI (return on investment) and ROE (return on emotion); and a fascinating discussion about how to keep social films from becoming propaganda.
Read the Tweets from the #SXDocsChange stream.
My next panel was one I just could not resist: "Political Humor 2.0: Teh Internetz R Leaking":
In an election year that is as divisive as any in recent memory, a snarky, slightly jaded and unflinching group of funny folk are taking action and making an impact on the political scene. Learn how the internet empowered comedians and comedy writers and how funny folk are wielding their online prowess to affect some real-world change. Join comedians and staff from The Daily Show, Huffington Post,and Wonkette in an in-depth discussion that may very well save the world!
One of the most interesting observations to come out of this panel was that extremism, and extremists (whether on the right or the left) tend to have less of a sense of humor. Humor–especially political humor–lies in the middle where people are less likely to take themselves seriously. I had to hold myself back from rushing the stage to tell Rory Albanese that I would give him both of my firstborn children for a job at The Daily Show.
Read the Tweets from the #SXPoliHum stream.
My final panel of the day was inspirational. It was by Saman Arbabi of the hilarious Iranian-based political satire television show Parazit:
Saman Arbabi will use his signature wit to relate how the satirical TV program challenges the oppressive Iranian regime all the while influencing the direction of the country's political landscape. The program, "Parazit," has become a runaway hit in Iran despite the gov's strict censorship practices. The program uses alternate channels of distribution to reach their audience which has driven the program further underground and contributed to its outlaw status and popularity. The show has so completely seeped into the Iranian psyche that the president and his supporters have launched a counter-Parazit program. Saman will give insight into their innovative methods of growing an audience that was previously all but unreachable. At SXSW, he will unveil his latest: "Weapons of Mouse Destruction," the largest global art project against government Internet censorship. Raina Kumra BBG Director of Innovation will open the session with an overview of closed media environments around the world.
They also gave the audience members this awesome, awesome T-shirt with this design:
Visit the Weapons of Mouse Destruction website.
DAY 2: Saturday, March 10, 2012
On Saturday morning I headed downtown on the train and before I could even get there Martin called and told me to meet him at the Samsung booth in the lobby. He had discovered the new Samsung tablet which is coming out later this year, and the Samsung people had a caricature artist there doing pictures of people using the product:
Here's how my caricature came out:
And here is Martin getting his done:
Incidentally, while Martin was getting his caricature drawn, I saw two jackasses in sumo suits wrestling in the middle of a huge crowd in the lobby. Because, you know, when space is at a premium, the best way to represent your brand is to dress up in a fat suit and throw your bodies around wildly. UGH.
After we were done with all that noise, we traversed the crowd and headed back up to the Beacon Lounge. On the way I ran in to this guy:
He was kind enough to give me a whole bunch of fake mustaches, so the first thing I did when I got to the lounge was put one on and take a photo:
At the Beacon Lounge we met up with our friend Ehren Foss (@ehrenfoss) of HelpAttack! Ehren used to live in Austin and moved up to Boston recently. But he's still working hard to develop creative ways for non-profit organizations to raise money and increase engagement using social media.
We had a Mobile Meetup to attend, but before we did that we had to stop by the Americans Elect lounge. This, lounge reminded me of my own home. There were large TV's showing clips from The Colbert Report, various tables had games on them, and there were chips and salsa sitting out for me to eat.
AmericansElect.com has an interesting proposition: Choose a President, Not a Party. I confess, I love the idea of taking the circus aspect out of the political process…and choosing candidates based on their individual merits.
Martin and I headed over to meet Katherine Ruiz and Omar Naseef at the Mobile Meetup. Since YoMobi.com is a new platform for building mobile websites, we thought it might be cool to see who else was there in the same space. We found quite a few people who are actually mobile website developers. They didn't care much for our product because…well…it lets people make a mobile website for FREE which sort of puts a damper on the whole 'charge-someone-for-the-same-service' thing. But whatevs. We talked to some other cool folks who were developing and managing apps, AND the YoMobi team got to talk to a VC who gave them some great encouragement.
After our meetup we headed down to see Tamara Hodges (@PrincessTAH a/k/a Martin's wife) who is an event planner. She was responsible for managing an exclusive Food Truck Court. Katherine was keen to hand out some cards there to the food truck owners (since YoMobi is geared toward helping small businesses create mobile sites). On the way to the Food Trucks we stopped to see what the hubbub was over the Nokia Lab:
There was no snow.
Finally I got myself a taco from the One Taco food truck. Actually I got TWO Tacos at One Taco. So yeah. I was happy then.
DAY 3: Sunday, March 11, 2012
I woke up on Sunday morning with a SPECTACULAR headache. I literally felt hungover, which sucks for someone who doesn't actually drink. I think it was because I hadn't had enough water the day before and got dehydrated. So I took Advil and gingerly took myself downtown. Upon arriving to the convention center I was immediately presented with this:
At that point I got a text from my online friend Amy Vernon (@AmyVernon) who I was FINALLY going to get to meet after knowing each other on the internets for almost two years. When I met her on the corner of 2nd and San Jancinto, she looked like she was going to fall over from lack of caffeine. After a few moments of wandering around bleary eyed (she un-caffinated and me still headachy) we found a FedEx tent offering free coffee. Once Amy was fueled up we decided the best strategy for finding breakfast (now almost lunch) was to wander around until someone offered us free food.
We went only two blocks before we saw a sign that said "Taco Tent" and marched up to it. We were presented with tickets for free tacos (the very best kind, of course) and proceeded to stuff our faces all the while swapping stories about our kids and discussing the fact that we are Gen X'ers and by default, angsty.
I had to run at 12:30 because I didn't want to miss Mona Eltahawy's (@monaeltahawy) presentation: "Optimism: The Ultimate Revolutionary Act" -
It takes optimism to launch revolutions, to believe that you can end decades of dictatorship and that you deserve freedom and dignity. Why are the people of the Middle East and North Africa – all too aware of the challenges they face in rising up to despots – more optimistic about their revolutions and uprisings than those outside the region – who all too often take for granted their own freedoms?
However, I had to stop briefly on the way there at the Microsoft Lounge because they were handing out Microsoft cupcakes:
Mona's presentation was inspiring (as I knew it would be). She talked about the sacrifices that women (and men) in Egypt and other Arab nations are making to forge democratic societies–and how vitally important their optimism is to fulfilling their collective vision. In a society like the U.S. that celebrates cynicism it's a good lesson to remind us of the role our attitudes play in creating change when it is needed.
As I was headed up to give her a hug, I was stopped by none other than the TRULY FABULOUS Anna Gonzalez (@webanna) who is the web producer for HLN. Anna used to live in Austin before she moved to Atlanta almost two years ago. She is one of the most amazing, generous, and talented people I know and it was just brilliant that I bumped into her there after Mona's talk. The two of us decided to cruise around and look for food. We went to the CNN Grill but couldn't get seated, although I did have her take a photo of me there:
After Anna and I spent an hour talking about News, Broadcast Media, Social Media, Internet memes (and how to harnass their power) and Politics we had to go our separate ways. One day I plan to go to Atlanta and visit her so I can experience firsthand the exciting world of being a badass.
Next, I was on my way to meet Michael Tomlinson (@MykleT) who was driving up to the AT&T Conference Center for a panel discussion called "Election 2012: Campaigns, Coverage & the Internet":
From smear campaigns on Twitter to owning a domain before the opposition does to constituent hangouts on Google+, social media and the web have changed the election process for good. Candidates rely on social media to get their message out on their terms, journalists report and react to the story as it happens, and social platforms help to galvanize public opinion, support volunteers and solicit donations. With viewpoints from journalists, scholars, and campaign practitioners, this panel will reflect on the 2012 presidential campaign and how new media has made its mark. Specifically, the panel will look at which online platforms are performing the best in the 2012 election, the convergence of new and traditional mediums on the campaign trail, and analyze how campaigns are using these tools to promote their issue platforms and candidates, successfully or not.
DAY 4: Monday, March 12, 2012
Monday morning I woke up feeling slightly more refreshed and without a headache. As I headed downtown I texted my pal Chris Barger (@cbarger) who has some kind of important job at Voce Communications. The two of us breakfasted at the Hilton while being intermittently joined by various other luminaries from the world of social media, including Daniel Agee, Shelly DeMotte Kramer, and Tonia Ries. We talked about important things like how much we love Pinterest, the real value of infographics, and whether or not Facebook will really take off.
After I was done with breakfast (Barger paid for my pancake by the way. Very kind of him.) I ran up to the Beacon Lounge where Martin was hanging out with the adorable Sara Peralta (@sarafperalta). Sara is the communications director at AGE and a student at Southwest Texas University. Her enthusiasm for non-profit work and for new media is infectious–we had a very exciting conversation with her about our work at Mobile Loaves & Fishes and what she hopes to accomplish in her organization.
Then. It was time. For the Trade Show.
I went into the trade show at around 12:30 and before I knew it, I looked at my phone and it was 4:30. It was like a vortex of nifty stuff, free t-shirts, and things I haven't seen before. Like a geek carnival or something. I saw a LOT of stuff. But here are some of my favorite things from among the hundreds of vendors:
EFF broke new ground when it was founded in 1990—well before the Internet was on most people's radar—and continues to confront cutting-edge issues defending free speech, privacy, innovation, and consumer rights today. From the beginning, EFF has championed the public interest in every critical battle affecting digital rights.
Blending the expertise of lawyers, policy analysts, activists, and technologists, EFF achieves significant victories on behalf of consumers and the general public. EFF fights for freedom primarily in the courts, bringing and defending lawsuits even when that means taking on the US government or large corporations.
ACLU.org & ReckoningWithTorture.org
The amazing, lovely and talented @ateqah who I know from Twitter, and who does communications for the ACLU. She ALSO is the person who runs the amazing Tumblr called "My Best Friend is Muslim."
We talked about the very exciting film project called "Reckoning With Torture" that she is helping director Doug Liman (Bourne Identity) promote. They are looking for people to submit homemade videos of themselves reading from official government documents that have been released regarding interrogation techniques by the U.S. since 9/11.
Look for mine, soon!
enchant.js is a game development engine that you can use to learn to use coding. It's easy, fun, and the PERFECT project for you and your kids! Read all about it here.
Thinglink is sweet. You can make custom Facebook pages–or pretty much any kind of HTML page–with interactive 'spots' embedded into photos or graphics. You generate them on the site, copy the code and paste it into your HTML editor and VOILA! I love this thing! (Check out this cool example – Alan Partridge's FB Welcome Page)
For $2000 you can buy a 3D printer. Don't laugh. I can literally think of a million and one uses for this thing. The guy at the booth told me he once needed a doorstop and just printed one out for himself. He also made a skull. Because really, why not? I found him to be DELIGHTFULLY geeky and took a video of him:
VIRB lets people who don't know how to make websites, make websites. There are a lot of sites that do this but I like this one for a couple reasons: 1. Editing happens on the actual site in 'edit mode'; 2. They host it for you; and 3. They have an EXCELLENT ecommerce platform included. So, yeah. I'm going to recommend this to everyone I know who wants a website and doesn't want to pay me to make it for them. Heh.
Tune Up is perfect for anal retentive people who hate it when their music library is less than pristine. This service will find missing cover art, remove duplicate files, and basically keep you from spending hours combing through your music files and obsessing over getting everything perfect. (Not that I would ever do such a thing).
I actually didn't see this at the tradeshow–I bumped into this guy in one of the lounges, but I'm including it here. As you may already know, I really enjoy live tweeting to my favorite TV show. This service lets you aggregate the live tweets that happen during a specific show or event, watch the tweet stream IN TIME with the replay, and it removes anything spammy or irrelevant from the stream. Neato.
I love WordPress. I love Jackie Dana (@jadana17). I went to their booth and gushed to her about it. I also got a t-shirt which is going into heavy rotation in my wardrobe.
DAY 5: Tuesday, March 13, 2012
Tuesday Morning I hung out in the Samsung Lounge and I have to give Samsung a shout out. As much as I enjoyed the Beacon Lounge, Samsung's was by far the best. Especially in the morning. Fresh coffee, low lighting, lots of nice TV's and righteous tunes. Martin showed up around 10 and we sat at a table talking to some pretty cool people for almost an hour. I had planned to go see my friend Amy Vernon's panel at 12:30 so Martin and I went back down to the trade show and killed some time checking out whatever we'd missed the day before.
Here are some of the things we saw…
Remote Control Ball:
Otterbox Plinko:
We took off for the Sheraton which I claimed was only a couple blocks away. I soon realized it was several blocks away. But whatever, I need to exercise more. On the way I took a couple of videos:
Walking to the Sheraton:
Dead Bird:
We saw Amy Vernon's panel called "Branded Content: We're All Publishers Now":
The Internet has made everyone a publisher. Even brands are now doing what used to solely be the domain of media companies: creating compelling content. Great content is being used to gain fans, inform customers and increase exposure on the Internet. This panel will discuss the principles of successful viral content – whether articles, infographics or videos and how companies can apply these to branded content. And we're talking about more than just slapping your logo on a pie chart. We'll discuss how to get started, measure results and set goals, as well as the importance of a consistent strategy. You've heard the phrase "content is king" over and over again; this panel will show how and why.
When we were done with lunch, we headed over to the Hilton to watch a documentary called Twittamentary in the air conditioning. On the way to watch the film though, Zainab went all fangirl crazy because she spied Robert Scoble on the street. I informed him that they'd come all the way from England just to meet him but he didn't seem to buy that. Nevertheless, it was a photo op for all, and I think Zainab's day had been made.
After the Twittamentary, it was time for me to head home. And my SxSWi adventure was over. But I will leave you with one last photo of me in full conference regalia:

Google Play enables smart app updates, conserving batteries
Google has enabled a Google Play feature that promises to save Android app users time and bandwidth.
The Web giant is now offering the ability for app users to download delta updates from its Google Play, the folks over at the Android Police blog have discovered.
Previously, an updated app meant downloading it again in full, which could put a strain on a device's battery if the app was large and the connection slow. The new smart downloads allows users to avoid downloading the app in toto, send only the incremental difference between the old and new versions, thereby … Read more

News & Analysis
The CEO of Sagantec expresses first a view in "Viewpoint:IC technology moves in ...
Sagantec buys Dutch 20-nm EDA specialist
Peter Clarke
LONDON – EDA company Sagantec North America Inc. (Santa Clara, Calif.) has announced that is has acquired NP Komplete Technologies BV (Eindhoven, The Netherlands), a startup company founded in 2009. Sagantec did not disclose how much it paid.
NP Komplete Technologies provides physical IC design migration tools and services to automate migration and optimization of libraries, memories and custom layout for meeting new design rules and yield goals in new processes. and specializes in the 28-nm, 22- and 20-nm manufacturing process nodes. All the company's customers are among the top 20 semiconductor companies in the world.
Sagantec, which has its engineering teams in Eindhoven, The Netherlands and Haifa, Israel, said that the NPKT team is now integrated with its Eindhoven team.
The NPKT migration technology is an automated layout optimization technology, and was designed to address 20-nm design rules and beyond. Most of the additional design rules at 20-nm are required to overcome challenges of manufacturability that impact yield. The NPKT technology has been proven with clean design rule checked results at several semiconductor companies, and on 28- and 20-nm processes at foundries.
The 22-nm nomenclature for a process node is only being used by Intel at present.
According to its website NPKT develops and maintains all of design for manufacturing (DFM) products marketed by Takumi Technology Corp. (Santa Clara, Calif.)

The CEO of Sagantec expresses first a view in "Viewpoint:IC technology moves in multiple directions" about companies making ICs and developing IP in nodes at 90 nm and above and not migrating to lower nodes, but then ends up buying a company specializing in 20nm EDA tools himself! Adds special meaning to the phrase "take it with a pinch of salt" !!
Hello FePiNaMi,
You might have missed the fact that the Viewpoint "IC technology moves in multiple directions" was written 3 years ago, right after the 2008 market meltdown.
At that time most semi companies were understandably hesitant to venture off into an expensive deployment in the next technology node.
Three years later and today all the industry talk is about shortage of capacity at 28nm...
today Sagantec serves customers of both types:
those that early on migrate to the next node and those who are more interested in cost reduction and alternate sourcing.

Most helpful review
By Carl Hunt from Isle of Wight , 12 Aug 2005[Highly rated reviewer]
In my opinion this is quite simply the best story ever told and i'm glad to say I've never even read the books...why would I want to when the films have been so utterly enjoyable.
The characters is the extended versions are (particularly in the fellowship) presented more and little side stories and humour add even more magic.
If you've seen the originals and think that this isn't going to be worth watching, think again. You're talking about an extra 20 minutes to each of the first two films and about an extra 30 minutes to ROTK to make sheer imiginative brilliance.

good but not the best
By denis007 (141 reviews) , 08 Apr 2012The story is good but not exceptional as some readers want to make it look like. Lots of special effects, beautiful outdoors of New Zealand, action packed movie but it is way too long. The movie I heard is very close to the book but it will never be as good as the source, the book that is! Still it is watchable and it gives you a nice warm feeling inside, especially at night when it is rainy and cold.- Was this review helpful to you?

With THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE FELLOWSHIP OF THE RING, director Peter Jackson has achieved a meticulous and captivating adaptation of the first book of J.R.R. Tolkien's classic fantasy trilogy. The setting is Middle-earth, a mythological land populated by elves, dwarves, humans, and the gentle, diminutive hobbits upon whom the story centers. One hobbit, Frodo Baggins (Elijah Wood), unexpectedly comes into possession of an ancient magical ring so powerful it invariably corrupts anyone who wears it. In order to prevent the ring's erstwhile owner, the dark lord Sauron, from reclaiming the ring and taking over Middle-earth, a motley band of comrades set out to destroy it in the fires of Mount Doom, where it was forged. Included in the group are Frodo and hobbits Sam (Sean Astin), Merry (Dominic Monoghan), and Pippin (Billy Boyd); the wizard Gandalf (Ian McKellen); human warriors Aragorn (Viggo Mortensen) and Boromir (Sean Bean); the dwarf Gimli (John Rhys-Davies); the elf Legolas (Orlando Bloom). Along the way, they wage battle with monsters, demons, and Sauron's evil minions, all brought to life by spectacular digital technology.
Jackson's grandiose production represents the first of three films that he wrote and directed, derived from Tolkien's beloved novels. Fourteen months in the making, at a cost of $270 million, all three installments were filmed at once in New Zealand where diverse landscapes lend themselves particularly well to the mystical realm of Middle-earth. The story continues with THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE TWO TOWERS and THE LORD OF THE RINGS: THE RETURN OF THE KING.

A fantastic movie based on a genre-defining book. See it.
By a customer , 23 Jun 2011There's a reason that the LoR movies are so great - the underlying books are not only filled with depth, but they are quite literally genre-defining. Its no understatement to say that there wasn't really a well defined 'Fantasy' genre until LoR came along.
I'm a believer in the theory that at the centre of every genre, no matter how exhausted, there is something of excellence, be it hip-hop, rap, opera, westerns, rom-coms or whatever. Well when it comes to 'fantasy' LoR is it. Even if you've never read the book and are not a fan of 'fantasy' you should see the film. You remember how 'Star Wars' entranced you as a child ? Well LoR is just as significant, and because of the quality of the source material, built on much deeper foundations.- Was this review helpful to you?

3000 Kilometres or 1900 miles
Just before I left Arizona, I got my "Questionable Outcome" quilt back from the quilters. I sewed on part of the binding before I packed up the sewing machine. The hand sewing of the binding I did in the car. The quilter did her part beautifully - the stitch pattern is called "Flowing Feathers". So here is my first full size quilt finished - all 1100 pieces!
I had Rachel's Mirabilia RR kitted and ready to stitch in the car.She chose her RR theme to be the Mirabilia Mermaids. Here is her finished piece. I stitched one of the "Mermaids of the Deep Blue". For me, this RR is now over and I miss it already.
I am seriously thinking of starting another Mirabilia RR in the fall - anyone interested?
When I packed the car to come home I found my friend Ann's RR in the bottom of a trunk. With great embarassment, I sorted my threads and started stitching. But first, I designed my own home.
I got 2/3 of it stitched and realized it was too small to fit into her RR. So, after 4 hours of frogging, I started again. I think I will figure out how to enlarge the design and stitch it again for myself.
I then stitched this lighthouse from a freebie that I had on file. I think it is more the correct size.
Here is her RR ready to be returned to her next week.
I am now filling in some of the extra hearts on my Friendship Sampler RR while I wait for the next one to be sent to me. I have two RR's left to stitch and it will be done.
And I wanted you to see this. I made this little calico dog for a family friend who has the most gorgeous new little girl named Maddie. I hope to meet her this weekend.
Dh and I are leaving our son's tomorrow to go home and unpack and pick up life at this end. We are looking forward to seeing our family and friends and spending time with them.
And the reason for the detour to our youngest son's house was to pick up this little baby - a 2006 VW Jetta TDI. My Dh had seen it online for a while and when the price was right, we had our son pick it up for us. He's out there washing and polishing it now. It will go home with us tomorrow.
I probably won't get much stitching done for the next little while when I am unpacking and setting up my home but I will keep in touch.
Till next time keep stitching!

My friend of many talents! Wowzers! That quilt is gorgeous! And I do believe those are little Strawberry Shortcakes on that dog? That is CUTE!
And you have got to be the RR queen! Who ever started the idea with those Mirabilia's? They look so awesome! - April 29, 2010 at 12:54 PM

The Mirabilia RR...those are stunning and I've actually been watching this through your blog and each one is special and different in its own way. Gorgeous! - April 29, 2010 at 1:40 PM

Please tell me Kathy that you cannot do miracles and sew on beads in the car??? That is a great way to get stitching done but I cannot stitch in Holland as easily as in France and Germany. For some reason the roads are better for stitching. I love the quilt! And the patchwork dog is amazing and I am sure will be very loved! It is just too sweet for words to describe. The RRs look great and I am sure it feels good to have them done to send on their way...
Have a great weekend. It is a holiday weekend here so we are off to Cranberry Cottage now.
Hugs from Holland ~

Great quilt and those RRs look fab! I've been following the Mira RRs closely and they all look amazing! I am tempted to jump on board with the next RR but have been so buried with gift making these past few months (and still am)that I may just be zoned out on personal stitching by the Fall.
Glad you made it back "home" safely. - April 29, 2010 at 2:26 PM

That's a really long trip! I would love that time in the car. I love to ride and stitch.
The quilt is wonderful! The quilting is just perfect.
I love your mermaid. I envy y'all doing those RRs. I wish I had the time for it. But running a cross stitch store is pretty good too. I won't complain too much. Thank goodness you found the one in the trunk.
I love this little dog. It's so cute and perfectly pink!
I'll keep stitching. We have our Jenny Bean-Humble Servant Sampler Stitch-A-Long tonight here at the store. Yeehah!

Hi Kathy,
Your quilt looks awesome!!!
Your fabric and color choices
go together so well. It's a
beauty. You should be proud
of such a wonderful achievement
on your very first quilting
project. Can't wait to see it
in person.
Mirabilia RR's are so magical
and this one featuring cameos
of the various mermaids is
just stunning. I don't blame
you for wanting to start another
RR in the Fall.
It's too bad you had to frog out
your little cottage from Ann's
RR because it looked really
good. It's so cool that you
designed it yourself. It must
be nice to be talented! :)
The lighthouse looks great too
though, and whenever we see
lighthouses we automatically
think of you!
The little calico dog that you
made for Maddie is adorable.
Love the pink fabrics that you
used and the big pink ribbon.
Hope you and Leo enjoy driving
your new Jetta as much as my
Phil enjoys driving his. They
are a nice little car. Though
I do like your car better
because it's RED!!!
Sounds like you had a wonderful
time meeting Missy Ann before
coming home. It's always so
exciting to meet our blogging
friends isn't it??
And don't worry, I would never
forget my Brighton friends and
am always trying to figure out
some way to get out for the
stitching gatherings in your
area. Sadly, it's a bit far
to walk.
Welcome home Kathy!!! Hope
you get settled soon and can
relax and stitch and craft to
your hearts content.
Hugs!! - May 4, 2010 at 10:02 PM

Wow Kathy your repretoire of skills keeps expanding! The quilt looks amazing, the RR is stunning, that dog is too cute!

I love this post--your quilt is AMAZING! That Mira RR is the coolest thing I've ever seen done with Mira! Every time I see one on someone's blog, it's like "Oh, wow!!"

Oh i LOVE that little dog! Do you have a pattern you follow?

Hello dear Kathy,
I hope you will be home safely by now. I wish I could help you unpack and settle in comfortably and popping in for a coffee and some stitches together ... why do I live in Holland?!
Your quilt looks fab, wow! And that calico dog is so sweet, that little girl will be spoiled :)
Your stitches are so nice!
Question: could you please send me your address in Canada? I have a little something for the 4 of you (don't worry, it's just a Dutch 'sales thing', not expensive, and I simply had to think of you when I saw it ... I can't help it. So if you please ... you do have my mail address, don't you? If you lost it, please say so.
Take care & big hugs,

That's a lot of stitching you got done on your trip. I love the quilt. Isn't it amazing how many pieces actually go into the making of a quilt. But I love it. And your Miribilia RR - I think that recognize that one from Missy's blog. It looks wonderful. And the other RR is wonderful too - I would love to do one of those someday. I think your lighthouse is the perfect addition.
Love the car too - anything red is a good thing! - May 10, 2010 at 9:16 PM

Winnie the Pooh fans know Ashdown Forest as Hundred Acre Wood: Christopher Robin and Pooh Bear's home and playground (poohsticks anyone?). History buffs know the Forest for its archeaological importance and life as a medieval hunting forest enjoyed by Henry VIII. But for today's pleasure seeker, savvy party planner and switched-on PA, this is the setting for the neo-Gothic Ashdown Park Hotel and Country Club. All at once aristocratically grand yet make-yourself-at-home comfortable, "ta-dah" impressive yet somehow familiar and very welcoming, the hotel and country club are hubs of leisure and business activity. Of course the guest rooms and suites are top notch; families (feel free to bring the dog too) should book a roomy Fairway Suite with patio. And it goes without saying but let's highlight it anyway, that the food on offer is sublime, whether it's served at The Anderida Restaurant whose Head Chef will settle for nothing less than superior ingredients, or at the Country Club's Fairways Lounge with lip-smackingly good bistro menu. Without doubt, the hotel's star player is the converted chapel, aka the Richard Towneley Suite, majestically lit with natural light beaming through stained-glass windows. Not just an obscenely beautiful setting for weddings but a stately backdrop for all-important conferences. Send a booking enquiry to Ashdown Park Hotel

If ever there is a tomorrow when we're not together.......
there is something you must always remember.
You are braver than you believe, stronger than you seem, and smarter than you think.
But the most important thing is, even if we're apart...... I'll always be with you.
Winne the Pooh - A A Milne
A friend is a hand that is always holding yours,
no matter how close or far apart you may be.
A friend is someone who is always there and will always, always care.
A friend is a feeling of forever in the heart.

Photos: Paolo Ciaberta | Words: Rohan Dubash
Photographer Paolo Ciaberta witnesses Aldo Gios re-building the legendary blue machine ridden to victory in the 1977 edition of Paris-Roubaix by Roger de Vlaeminck. Rohan Dubash casts his expert eye over the components.
Cinelli's 1A stem is a classic use of forged alloy, an item of pure elegance and simplicity and a world apart from today's industrial (but far more practical) Ahead-compatible offerings. The solid construction allowed manufacturers to get creative and personalise the riders' bikes.
No messing here: the inner chainring is the beefier Record version with additional braces. The outer, however, has not escaped the pantographer's deft touch. The GT logo can be seen clearly, and small, subtle grooves have been milled to shave grams without reducing rigidity. The 'over the top' cable guide for the rear derailleur can also be seen which, despite being awkward to clean, did provide a smooth route for the inner wire.
The Record side-pull brake callipers are no match for modern dual-pivot designs, but in De Vlaeminck's day these were the best brakes money could buy. They were made from top quality alloys and featured an effective quick release mechanism, easy-to-use brake cable adjuster and wheel guides on the brake shoes to assist in rapid wheel changes.
A solitary chrome steel bottle cage together with an original Brooklyn team water bottle can also be seen. Hydration was still something that many riders simply did not understand and a single fitting was common on most pros' bikes. Despite the lack of importance certain riders placed on regular fluid intake, steel bottle cages were favoured by most for their durability, which was especially appropriate in races such as Paris-Roubaix.
Tubular tyres were still developing in the late 70s and the Italian artisans at Clement were probably responsible for some of the finest (and weirdest) products to grace our rims. The tyre featured here is a Clement Grinta that was developed as a special wet weather tyre - they even featured little umbrella graphics for emphasis. The tread pattern is interesting, especially when you consider tyre engineers had no CAD systems to help them during the design process.

Park Ridge groomer-on-the-go makes dogs dapper, felines fabulous
Tracy Kay, of Park Ridge, puts a pink ribbon on her red Border Collie, Ruby, inside her mobile grooming van. Kay is the owner of Bark 'N' Purrr-fect Mobile Grooming in Park Ridge. | Ryan Pagelow~Sun-Times Media
NAME: Bark 'N' Purrr-fect Mobile Grooming
SPECIALTY: Mobile pet grooming
WEBSITE: www.barknpurrrfect.com
Article Extras
Updated: October 14, 2012 12:12PM
PARK RIDGE — Tracy Kay doesn't give the usual facial, pedicures and haircuts.
For one thing, her clients never engage in the usual beauty-salon gossip and banter.
They also happen to have four legs.
Kay, of Park Ridge, is a pet groomer who in addition to offering the standard grooming procedures animal owners are most familiar, provides beauty treatments like haircuts and styling, nail painting, feather extensions on fur, paw treatments for dry pads, facials and even fur coloring.
"It can go pretty extensive," Kay said of her services. "You can do pretty much to a dog what you can do to a human. It's a pure luxury item."
Kay recently went mobile with her treatments, purchasing a van she describes as "a state-of-the-art salon on wheels," and establishing Bark 'N' Purrr-fect Mobile Grooming. Her grooming van is equipped with amenities like a shampooing system and high-powered dryers for fluffy coats in addition to top-line shampoos, from hypoallergenic to medicated.
At the time of this story Kay was planning to find a new place to park her van when not in use, as such vehicles are prohibited on Park Ridge streets and driveways.
Having a mobile grooming business allows Kay to make house calls so dog owners can avoid a visit to a pet salon. Procedures are by-appointment-only and most take about an hour depending on the size of the animal. The average grooming cost for a small dog is $65.
Kay acknowledges that her prices are a little higher than a brick-and-mortar groomer might charge, but she notes that the service is convenient for pet owners who may have difficulty taking their dogs out or are too busy. But some of the "luxury" treatments, like the pedicures and pad treatments, are provided free of charge.
Another treatment that has been especially sought-after this summer is a "skunk bath." With skunks out and about in abundance, many dogs have been on the receiving end of some unwelcome spraying and that requires an emergency trip to the groomer to prevent the oil from seeping into the dog's skin, Kay said.
"I've taken three skunk calls a week, which is a lot compared to previous summers," she said.
Kay uses a home remedy of peroxide and baking soda mixed with Dawn detergent, as well commercial-grade products.
Kay previously worked at two Park Ridge grooming establishments: Magic Scissors Dog Grooming and Precious Paws. This summer she decided to start Bark 'N' Purrr-fect Mobile Grooming based on the fact that such a service has not been based out of Park Ridge for many years.
As the name suggests, Bark 'N' Purrr-fect doesn't discriminate against cats and the same services offered to man's best friend are available to his feline counterpart. Kay has even been known to give a cat a mohawk.
"I'm pretty creative at heart," she said. "I'm really artistic; I like crafting and drawing, and haircuts kind of come along with that."

Ethnicity of us humans, who he helps govern, would seem irrelevant to him, naturally. People do not give the god of wisdom, diplomacy and magic much credit.
There are many anti-racist lessons within heathen lore:
- the use of fostering to create relationships amongst people, in Njal's Saga fostering is detailled
- that the Aesir & Vanir had no problems about accepting Jotuns, their acceptance of Skathi & Gerd (although I'll admit this is via marriage), however in Lokasenna they are more than happy to attend a Jotun feast.
- the whole cauldron effect of the migration period when people of seperate ethnicities grouped together to form a common whole; in Volsungasaga Atli (aka Attila the Hun) is brother of Brunhild (a Valkyrie).

I really hate to bother you, but there's a troublemaker on the miami-based forums that's resorting to name-calling to anyone who dislikes the Heat! I reported him for that. He, in turn, reported ME for some lame reason. I think it's personal attacks on Roteque (which I haven't done). He goes by Bad_Petroleum. Given his behavior patterns, I suspect that he IS Roteque, who was earlier banned from these forums for the reasons I stated. I'm a well-respected member of these GB forums for over 9 years, and I don't wish to put up with any of his nonsense, so I've ignored him. Please take our statuses into consideration when making decisions. Thank you for your time and sorry to drag you into this!

EMCC Lions cruise 78-45 at Meridian; MCC women win 52-44 |
MERIDIAN – The EMCC Lions completed their regular-season series sweep of Meridian Community College with a convincing 78-45 road win over the Eagles Wednesday night at Graham Gymnasium on the MCC campus. The East Mississippi women dropped a 52-44 decision to the Lady Eagles in Wednesday's opener.
Coach Mark White's Lions jumped out to an early double-digit lead and maintained a 38-26 halftime advantage over the home-standing Eagles. EMCC's lead continued to grow throughout the second stanza, as the visitors from Scooba won their fourth straight game in improving to 12-2 on the season. The Lions have limited the opposition to an average of just 57.5 points an outing during their current four-game winning streak. In November, the Lions claimed an 82-65 home triumph over Meridian, which fell to 5-10 on the year with Wednesday's 33-point setback. Freshman point guard Anthony Alexander, of Nashville, paced a balanced EMCC scoring attack with 14 points, while Starkville's CoCo Ware and hometown product Donovan Walker added 13 points apiece. Freshman Jonathan King contributed his third double-double in the last four games with 11 points and 11 rebounds for the winners. In Wednesday's opener, head coach Sharon Thompson's Lady Lions struggled offensively against the 24th-ranked Lady Eagles. Without a single player scoring in double digits, Columbus freshman Natalie Tate led the EMCC women with nine points. Former CHS teammate Nashedra Barry and sophomore Martika Hull, a former Southeast Lauderdale standout, followed with eight points each for the visitors. The Meridian women improved to 12-1 on the season with their 11th consecutive win, while the Lady Lions fall to 7-6 with the loss. The East Mississippi basketball teams resume MACJC North Division competition Monday (Jan. 11) by playing host to Itawamba in a hoops doubleheader on the Scooba campus. A 5:30 p.m. women's contest will be followed by a 7:30 p.m. men's tilt at EMCC's Keyes T. Currie Coliseum. |

Lil' Smoky
Binds when used
Use: Teaches you how to summon this companion.
Turns about and spews dark smoke.
» Video
Whirring (constant); pit-pattering footsteps; vocalizations (on-click)
As of patch 3.3.3, this previously-BoP pet is now BoU, meaning you no longer need to be an engineer to obtain it. As of patch 3.1, the BoP schematic has roughly a 20% chance to drop from [27+]Arcane Nullifier X-21, [27+]Peacekeeper Security Suit and [28+]Crowd Pummeler 9-60 in Gnomeregan, enabling both gnomish and goblin engineers to obtain the schematic.
Cute little guy, just got the schematic to make him for my engineer from Gnomer and can't wait to make him! I guess the highest possible quality outcome is uncommon? I'm seeing both common and uncommon on AH but no rare/blue.
Hello :)
Can't wait to pick up some new pets!
6 Copper Bars
Bring them to a jewelcrafter and have them make you
3 Delicate Copper Wires. Bring the wires to an engineer along with
2 Essences of Fire
2 Iron Bars
2 Mithril Bars
1 Gold Bar
1 Truesilver Bar
1 Core of Earth
This will result in 4 Fused Wirings left, use 1 for Pet Bombling.
He's a noisy little fella, summon him and Crashin' Thrashin' Robot, use Toy Train Set and Piccolo of the Flaming Fire and don't wait long for effect on other raiders...
Warning: for something so small and cute, this guy certainly makes a lot of noise. And smoke. Hence the name. So builder beware… While he's rare and charming, he can get pretty annoying. My human rogue built one. With Lil' Smoky by her side, she can't sneak up on anything.

Americans are at a crossroads. Decisions must be made.
We, as a nation, need to decide, are we representative of the rugged individualism and independence or do we, as a whole, roll over and say "somebody needs to care for me, because I cant do it myself."
We, as a nation, need to decide whether we will continue to be the policeman of the world, or do we say, "we cant do this anymore, sorry, folks, have at it amongst yourselves." "Create what you like, regardless of what that might be."
We, as a nation, need to decide if we want to have employment and self-determination or do we just want to go on the government dole.
We, as a nation, need to decide that being "An American" is a good thing and instills pride at the thought, a unique and successful experiment in a Republican form of government, or do we say, we are just another "member nation" of the World.
We, as a nation, need to decide if we wish to be more energy independent or do we rely on the rest of the world and their whims and simply buy energy.
We, as a nation, need to decide if we are a sovereign nation, with laws and rules created for our citizens or do we accept another's rules and laws.
We, as a nation, need to decide who our allies are and build those ties to unbreakable, or do we simply keep sending funds, which we do not have, to anybody, regardless of their opinions of America.
We, as a nation, need to decide if we have the requisite fortitude to carry on as America, or do we say that we are too wishy-washy to make up our own minds about anything and the rest of the world needs to tell us how we think.
We, as a nation, need to decide, that as a mixture of all nationalities, our allegiance is to America alone, or are we just a landmass that hosts expatriates from all other nations of the world, with loyalty to their origins.
The time has come, no longer can we bury our heads in the sand. We must decide. As has been said MANY times before, "if you don't stand for something, you will fall for anything."
We, as a nation, need to decide, Are we, or are we not, PROUD TO BE AN AMERICAN.
I agree Kevin, now is the time to be bold and stand up! Our future depends on it!
