What Is It About Doors?
I love doors and I love door knobs. I have a lot of knobs in my basement. For someday, when I have the perfect project for them. I took this picture today up at my Mom's in my Dad's old shop. It was a house once upon a time. Someone's home. My Grandfather's for awhile. Then it became "the old house"; "the shop", and I remember my Dad sorting bolts and what-not out there. I love that old house.

In anticipation of the institution of these proceedings, Respondent has submitted an Offer of Settlement (the "Offer") which the Commission has determined to accept. Solely for the purpose of these proceedings and any other proceedings brought by or on behalf of the Commission, or to which the Commission is a party, and without admitting or denying the findings herein, except as to the Commission's jurisdiction over him and the subject matter of these proceedings, which are admitted, and except as provided herein in Section V, Respondent consents to the entry of this Order Instituting Cease-and-Desist Proceedings, Pursuant to Section 21C of the

Altered Puzzle Challenge Week 2
11 comments:
These look great. I wasn't gripped by the puzzle idea like I was by the playing card challenge but I love what you have done with these two pieces. I still have a few playing cards sulking cos I haven't altered them yet. Maybe I should do those before I start something else new LOL. Maybe I should use this challenge as a kick to get my pack finished. Now there's an idea. I will be following along to see what people are doing with this challenge. HugzReplyDelete
Gorgeous pieces and such a fun start on the puzzle alter! ~kimReplyDelete
Love it! Wish I had that Wendy eye stamp used in the 2nd piece--it's perfect!ReplyDelete
I absolutely love this AND was loving the playing cards too! I need to find time to do this puzzle! Thanks for sharing...I am following :)ReplyDelete
These are gorgeous! Great start to this new series.ReplyDelete
So crazy fun! I love this kind of alteration, and both of these are great!ReplyDelete

Claudine your art is always amazing. Just as these puzzle pieces are. Gosh you did a fabulous job on them. Thnks a lot for sharing. Love your step-by-step tutorials.ReplyDelete
Hugs from Monica.... Spain
Love these. The sentiments are great too.ReplyDelete
I have done this with altered art puzzle with 9 other ladies. We bought 10 puzzles and numbered the back just like you did. We all got either 2 or 3 numbers to design. In a month your numbers had to be done. 10 of either two or three designs. We each ended up with a whole puzzle decorated by craft friends. I have mine hung up in my craft room. It was a lot of fun. Since than one of the ladies has passed away. Now I have a wonderful memory to look at every time I step in the room.ReplyDelete

A new version of the national broadband map website has been launched this week by InternetNZ.
InternetNZ says the revamped Broadband Map NZ is designed to provide more accurate data on wireless Internet availability in New Zealand.
The tool enables users to compare different technologies on the same map, meaning they can now see fibre, cable, ADSL, VDSL, and wireless coverage at a specific location.
Additionally, the new website provides improved performance, enhanced design and user experience, InternetNZ says.
According to the organisation, more than half a million people have visited the website over the last four years to learn about internet options at their address and to get connected to the internet.
InternetNZ commercial director David Morrison says the new version of the site positions the Broadband Map NZ as a platform that will continually reflect the state and evolution of internet coverage in New Zealand.
"With the coverage information we receive from data providers, we are able to paint a comprehensive picture of broadband availability in New Zealand both now and in the future," says Morrison.
"The map is also a powerful tool for identifying the gaps in internet coverage in the country and improving digital inclusion," he says.
"InternetNZ believes that all New Zealanders should be able and empowered to participate online and benefit from the Internet," says Morrison.
"We aim to inspire concrete improvements in this area, making sure the internet is available for all New Zealanders," he explains.
InternetNZ chief executive Jordan Carter adds, "Broadband Map NZ's ability to showcase internet access data is a big step towards realising InternetNZ's vision of an internet that is open, secure and for all New Zealanders."
You can visit the Broadband Map NZ site here.
InternetNZ is a non-profit organisation, and the home and guardian of .nz - providing the infrastructure, security and support. The organisation uses the funding from the sale of .nz domain names to support the development of New Zealand's internet through policy, community grants, research and events.
The company earlier this month announced an increase to the cost of its domain fees, as it looks to meet market demands over security requirements and co-ordination services.
The fee increase will see .nz wholesale domain fees change from $1.25 per month to $1.50 per month.
The increase in price will apply to newly created domain names as well as renewed domain names, InternetNZ says. The change will come in effect as of 1 June 2020.

This is a recipe that I call a happy accident. I had the ingredients on hand from other dishes I had made and put this delightful meal together. I love the lemon herb olive oil that I usually use on top of tofu – it is one of my favorite flavor combos. So here, it gets tossed into this dish, as the sauce, for amazing flavor!
Note: This is one of those meals that you can prep ahead of time. The squash can be roasted a few days in advance. And the lemon herb oil can be made a few days in advance too!
Makes 2 nice portions
1 small spaghetti squash
1/2 block extra firm tofu
Lemon herb olive oil (recipe below)
1 cup of corn (fresh off the cob, canned, or frozen)
2 scallions
Salt and fresh pepper, to taste
Olive oil, a few teaspooons
Preheat oven to 375. Line a baking sheet with nonstick foil. Cut squash in half lengthwise and place cut side down on baking sheet. Roast for about 30 minutes or until a sharp knife can be easily inserted. Let cool enough to touch and then use a fork to scrape out the flesh.
Lemon Herb Olive Oil
1/3 cup fresh chives
1/3 cup fresh parsley
1/3 cup fresh dill
The zest of 1/2 lemon
The juice of 1/2 lemon
1/4 cup olive oil
Place all of the ingredients into the processor and process until the herbs are chopped up.
To make the dish, cut the tofu into squares and add to a pan with a little olive oil and sauté until it starts to brown. Add the cooked spaghetti squash, cooked corn and lemon herb oil, a pinch of salt, and mix with tongs until everything is mixed through.
Thinly slice the scallions and toss them and just cook long enough for them to just start to get soft. The only real cooking at this point is to heat everything through.
Plate it up and grind some fresh pepper over the top. Enjoy!

By Liz Bergren
Social and emotional learning has significant short-term and long-term benefits, including positive behaviors and relationships; improved test scores, grades, and attendance; higher graduation rates; and better mental health. As a former classroom teacher, at times I found myself in a creative slump when it came to creating lessons and really needed help. Other times I needed something quick, easy to use, and fun that I could teach when class ran short. I spent hours scouring the internet looking for new resources and innovative ways to integrate SEL into my lessons. This post offers you practical, user-friendly, and free resources from Free Spirit Publishing so you don't have to search all over like I did. You can use these resources for effective SEL lessons for early childhood through high school.
Greeting Circles
One of my favorite lessons to kick-start or reignite classroom relationship-building and social skills involves greeting, eye contact, and conversation practice. Have students share ways that they have heard and seen the adults in their lives greet others. Answers could include statements such as "Hi, how are you?" and "How is your day going?" Nonverbal greetings could include a handshake, head nod, or fist bump.
Next, divide the class into two groups and create an inner and outer circle. The inner circle faces the students in the outer circle so students are paired up. Provide a question prompt such as "What is your favorite book?" or "What is your favorite game?" and give students 30 seconds to greet one another and then ask and answer the question. Their greetings should include both a verbal and a nonverbal element. After 30 seconds, rotate one of the circles so the students face a new partner. Give them a new prompt and 30 seconds to repeat the exchange.
Hang In There
Practicing perseverance is important for building self-esteem and a strong work ethic. For elementary students, the Hang-In-There Rings from William Mulcahy's Zach Hangs In There help provide a concrete strategy for working through the struggles, doubts, and emotional upheaval that can accompany obstacles. Using a common childhood achievement—crossing the "tricky trapeze rings" (or monkey bars)—this activity helps students understand the action steps necessary to reach a goal. You can print the rings worksheet here for free. Have students choose something that they would like to work on or something that they want to accomplish and help them work through the rings. Encourage them to analyze any potential barriers to accomplishing their goal. Use this as a time to teach positive self-talk phrases such as, "Don't give up," and "I can do it."
Emotion Coping Mind Map
Older elementary students can create a mind map of strategies for coping with emotions. They can do this as a group on a bulletin board or smart board, or students can create individual mind maps or posters. Start with a center bubble containing an emotion that tends to be difficult to cope with. Then brainstorm unhealthy or unhelpful ways that people deal with that emotion. For example, if the emotion is anger, answers could include hitting or screaming at someone. Next, brainstorm healthy coping strategies. For anger, these might include deep breathing, walking away, going outside, or talking with someone. Here are free available resources from How to Take the GRRRR Out of Anger by Elizabeth Verdick and Marjorie Lisovskis: 5 Steps to Taming That Temper, the Anger Pledge, and 6 Steps to Solving Anger Problems.
Empathy Discussion
Biff Poggi, a football coach in Baltimore, Maryland, offers wonderful inspiration for his team. Get students thinking about the practice of empathy using Coach Poggi's Golden Rule, a worksheet from the book Create a Culture of Kindness in Middle School by Naomi Drew, M.A., and Christa M. Tinari, M.A. Prior to using the worksheet, put the word empathy on the board and do a 30-second pair-share on the definition. Have students share their understanding of the concept. It is important to clarify the difference between sympathy and empathy since the two concepts are often confused. (Consider watching Dr. Brené Brown's RSA Short on the difference between sympathy and empathy. The video has adult concepts that aren't appropriate for middle school students, but it can help you understand the difference and may spark an idea for a lesson or role play.)
Pass out the Golden Rule worksheet, read the story aloud, and have students answer the questions either individually or in pairs and share their responses with the class. As an extension, have students brainstorm ways they can reduce exclusion and improve their school climate. To get a better take on students' views of their school climate, use this survey from The School Climate Solution by Johnathan C. Erwin, M.A.
Discuss RULER Scenarios
Teaching skills to boost emotional intelligence (EQ) in students can reduce anxiety, depression, and bullying in schools. The Yale Center for Emotional Intelligence has developed the RULER acronym, which helps define the aspects of EQ. RULER stands for "Recognizing emotions in self and others, Understanding the causes and consequences of emotions, Labeling emotions accurately, Expressing emotions appropriately, and Regulating emotions effectively."
For students in middle and high school, kick-start a lesson on EQ by using the EQ Quiz for Students, a free download from the book Boost Emotional Intelligence in Students by Maurice J. Elias, Ph.D., and Steven E. Tobias, Psy.D. This short inventory will get students thinking about how they manage their emotions. Spend some time creating fictional scenarios with realistic situations, or have students create the scenarios themselves to practice RULER. For example: Jorge meets Lucy while participating in the school play. They become great friends, and eventually Jorge finds out that Lucy would like to be a couple. Jorge now has his first girlfriend! They talk on the phone, go to movies, and hang out with friends. A few months later, Jorge finds out that Lucy no longer wants to be his girlfriend. Using the RULER acronym, have students process Jorge's potential emotional reaction and circumstances. Brainstorm strategies for expressing emotions appropriately as well as healthy self-talk for regulating difficult emotions.

Our Book Review
A very awe inspiring book even though it is only 84 pages long. This is the only book I have read in the series but will definitely look out for the others and read them.
The clever use of using Ping the frog to notice and act on the changes that happen around his pond is appealing to any reader. As other animals arrive he asks them while on their travels if they have spotted any differences, especially his long time friend Kamo, the duck, and together form an alliance to put it back as it should be.
The message from the book is a simple one, Mother Nature has ruled and governed the earth well before man and she knows how to solve the problems without any intervention. On the other side of the coin is that someone will do what they think is right for themselves without thinking about the consequences of their actions on others.
A book that everyone should read and it might change their views and help create a better world for everyone. The language and simple explanations make an excellent read and I think it should be introduced to the school curriculum and if the other books are as good as this one, they should be too. The book will cause a lot of debate regarding the best way forward for the planet and nature over money? Please read this book!

The most likely location for a cavity to develop in your mouth is on the chewing surfaces of the back teeth. Run your tongue over this area in your mouth, and you will feel the reason why: These surfaces are not smooth, as other areas of your teeth are. Instead, they are filled with tiny grooves referred to as "pits and fissures," which trap bacteria and food particles. The bristles on a toothbrush can't always reach all the way into these dark, moist little crevices. This creates the perfect conditions for tooth decay; in fact, research has shown that almost everybody has a 95% chance of eventually experiencing cavities in the pits and grooves of their teeth. This is why dental sealants were created! dental sealants near me in humble tx, texas(281) 852-2288
Sealants are thin, liquid coatings that harden on the chewing surfaces of teeth and are designed to prevent the intrusion of bacteria and other debris into the deep crevices on the tops of your teeth. The application is fast and comfortable and can effectively protect teeth for many years. Sealants show a great deal of effectiveness in preventing cavities—even on teeth where decay has begun. In fact, research has shown that sealants actually stop cavities when placed on top of a slightly decayed tooth by sealing off the supply of nutrients to the bacteria that causes a cavity. dental sealants near me in humble tx, texas
Sealants actually were developed about 50 years ago but didn't become commonly used until the 1970s. Today, sealants are becoming widely popular and effective; young children are great candidates for preventative measures like sealants (especially on molars) because. in many cases, decay has not set in (although plenty of adults decide to receive sealants as well). dental sealants near me in humble tx, texas
What's more, a child's newly erupted permanent teeth are not as resistant to decay as adult teeth are. The hard enamel coating that protects the teeth changes as it ages to become stronger. Fluoride, which is found in toothpaste and some drinking water — and in treatments provided at the dental office — can strengthen enamel, but, again, it's hard to get fluoride into those pits and fissures on a regular basis. Fortunately, dental sealants are a good solution to this problem. A sealed tooth is far less likely to develop a cavity, require more expensive dental treatment later on, or, most importantly, cause your child pain. dental sealants near me in humble tx, texas
Sealants are like mini plastic fillings that prevent decay. Because tooth enamel does not contain any nerves, placing a sealant is painless. It does not require numbing shots.
First, we examine your teeth. If we gently remove any minimal decay. After a thorough cleaning, we apply a solution to slightly roughen the surface. Next, we rinse and dry the tooth again. Finally, we apply the sealant in liquid form, which hardens in about a minute. That's all there is to it!
Sealed teeth require the same conscientious dental hygiene as unsealed teeth. You should continue to brush and floss your teeth daily and have regular professional cleanings. Checking for wear and tear on the sealants is important, though they should last for up to 10 years. During this time, you will also benefit from a preventive treatment proven to reduce decay by more than 70 percent! dental sealants near me in humble tx, texas

Archer Fish Right on Target
Archerfish, which knock their prey into the water with a well-aimed blast of water, tailor the power of their shot to the size of their meal, German scientists have found. Writing in this months edition of the journal Current Biology, Thomas Schlegel and his colleagues from the Universitat Erlangen-Nurnberg used high-speed photography capable of capturing 5000 frames per second to work out how much force the fish was using to knock prey of its perch. There were two key findings: The larger the prey the more force the fish used. The effect was even seen in fish that had previously grown up in a tank where firing any amount of water resulted in their receiving a food reward. The researchers think that the effect is down to the simple principle that the larger something is, the greater the adhesive force it uses to cling on to a surface. The second finding was that the fish minimise the amount of energy they use to retrieve their lunch. For larger targets they increase the amount of water they fire, rather than the pressure or speed at which they fire it. This means that they pack double the punch for double the energy, rather than double the punch for quadruple the energy, which would be the result if they altered the pressure or volume (because kinetic energy varies with the square of the speed but only linearly with mass). As a result they burn off the least energy possible for each shot they take meaning they make the most out of meal times.

Family: Cactaceae
Habitat: Mexico
Cultivation: To grow well it needs high temperatures, but it also tolerates cold very well: in fact it holds a temperature up to 4 ° C. We recommend to use narrow vessels and to repot every year.
Curiosity: As for other types of cacti, the name comes from the greek echinos (porcupine) combined, in this case, to the Latin term fossula (small pit). In fact we will see that these plants are characterized by deep furrows between the various ribs, which cover their surface.
The genus Echinofossulocactus is easily recognized compared to other cacti. The shape is mostly globular, but with age tends to become columnar; the color is usually bright green. The characteristic that distinguishes it is the special indentations that geometrically divide the surface. The effect is given by the fact that the ribs along the trunk, also common to other cacti, are particularly pronounced and frequent. Thus the stem portions appear narrow, nearly lamellar.
Along the stem there are fluffy areolas, distributed irregularly, from which come out strong thorns with a ranging color from white to reddish-brown. In the young specimens, the thorns can be even larger than the cactus itself. The flowers are small but very beautiful: they have funnel-shaped, speckled colors from white , pale pink, to purple, with central yellow stamens . They usually sprout from the top of the cactus in groups of 3, 5 or more – depending on the age and the specimen size.
As it often happens in the context of the succulent, many species have been recently reclassified. Almost all have been moved to Stenocactus and as Echinocactus are only two remained:
- Echinofossulocactus confusus
- Echinofossulocactus rosasianus
For information purposes, however, we write the complete list of all the species (and the main variants) also according to the previous classification, aware that we still refer to these plants as Echinofossulocactus.
Here are some:
- E. albatus
- E. albatus forma cristata
- E. anfractuosus
- E. arrigensis
- E. arrigensis forma cristata
- E. caespitosus
- E. coptonogonus
- E. crispatus
- E. crispatus forma cristata
- E. crispatus var. longispinus
- E. densispinus
- E. erectocentrus
- E. fasciculatus
- E. gladiatus
- E. guerraianus
- E. guerraianus forma cristata
- E. hastatus
- E. kellerianus
- E. lamellosus
- E. lloydii
- E. longispinus
- E. macracanthus
- E. multicostatus
- E. multicostatus forma cristata
- E. ochoterenanus
- E. penthacanthus
- E. phyllacanthus
- E. phyllacanthus "Grandicornis"
- E. phyllacanthus v violaciflorus
- E. robustus
- E. rosasianus
- E. sp. ALBINOS
- E. sp. L1564
- E. sp. VARIEGATA
- E. sulphureus
- E. tricuspidatus
- E. vaupelianus
- E. vaupelianus forma cristata
- E. violaciflorus
- E. wippermannii
- E. xiphacanthus
- E. zacatecasensis
Here are our recommendations for the care of Echinofossulocactus:
- The required exposure is in full sun, as for the majority of cacti.
- The average Echinofossulocactus requires high temperatures (around 30 ° C), but resists to the cold rather well. The minimum tolerated temperature is 4 ° C, as long as the soil is completely dry.
- Water regularly once a week in summer, but making sure that the soil is completely dry between a watering and the other. Decrease the frequency in autumn to fully suspend it during the winter months.
- The soil must be very porous: the ideal one is a mixture of peat, sand and aggregates because it ensures good drainage and sufficient lightness.
- Fertilize only in spring and summer, add a specific fertilizer for cacti to normal watering once a month.
- It is recommended to choose, for the Echinofossulocactus, vessels a bit larger than the base of the plant. Consequently, each year will be better to repot -, taking care not to damage the roots.
As for many cacti, we usually proceed to the propagation by seeds. The seeds should be planted in a sandy loam and left to germinate at a temperature of 21 ° C, in the shade. If you notice, at the base of the plant, sprouting pollens (quite rare, to tell the truth), you can cut them with a knife, previously sterilized, and use as cuttings

The process behind the artist's large-scale portraits pairing cultural icons
By Anna Carnick
Already a household name in Asia, Korean painter Kim Dong Yoo's inaugural U.S. exhibit at NYC's Hasted Kraeutler gallery aims to introduce the artist to a new, American audience. The self-titled show features a series of large-scale paintings that, from afar, depict a single grand portrait of notables from John F. Kennedy to Michael Jackson. Upon closer inspection, however, one realizes that the work is actually comprised of hundreds of smaller portraits of other, connected figures from Marilyn Monroe to Madonna.
The relationships between his culturally iconic pairings are intriguing. In addition to Queen Elizabeth II and Princess Diana, and Audrey Hepburn and Gregory Peck; Kim Dong Yoo has coupled Albert Einstein, one of the greatest geniuses of all time, with Marilyn Monroe, one of the greatest beauties of all time. He's also played upon the religious and pop culture interpretations of the Madonna, and the tension inherent in the legendary relationships between Jacqueline Kennedy and JFK, and JFK and Monroe, to name a few.
Perhaps even more surprising than the dueling portraits, however, is the process behind each piece. While the look is decidedly digital, the work itself is absolutely man-made. Kim Dong Yoo begins each labor-intensive piece by drawing a grid, hanging a tiny photo for reference by his canvas. He then hand paints every tiny portrait—no stencils, stamps or computers involved. It takes him about two days to complete a single half row, wherein each portrait varies just so from the rest, allowing for the larger, composite portrait's depiction. Kim Dong Yoo began the series in the late nineties, and completes three to five paintings each year. As gallery partner Sarah Hasted notes, "He makes it look easy, but the process is incredibly involved."
Elements of Kim Dong Yoo's series call to mind the work of both Andy Warhol and Chuck Close. Also interesting, according to the gallery, is the fact that another artist by the name of Alex Goufeng Cao has recently begun displaying work using the same visual concept, though his pieces are rendered digitally. Hasted Kraeutler notes the similarities bring up questions of derivation and new creation—ongoing issues in the modern art world—but rather than taking legal action, Joseph Kraeutler says, "We just want people to understand the concept began as Kim Dong Yoo's."
When Kim Dong Yoo himself is asked what he hopes people will take away from the show, the artist responds: "I find joy in the fact that my work balances both grid-like elements, which call to mind the digital world, and an analogical technique—drawing every pixel by hand. And while these components coexist in my work, I want viewers to also see both the visual and emotional harmony and the competition between the two figures—Marilyn and JFK, for example—in every piece. But, at the same time, the thoughts the viewers have when they see the works will be colored by their own distinctive feelings regarding the format and the personalities involved."
Kim Dong Yoo is on display at New York's Hasted Kraeutler through 24 March 2012.

My dream is NY in the Fall. I want to do a TON of sight seeing so we are going to go when Connor is a bit older.ReplyDelete
Day three looks like it was a great day! Serendipity looks like so much fun! I'm so sad they've closed FAO down :( We took A a few weeks before they shut their doors and got to enjoy jumping around on the big floor piano. Top of the Rock is still on my list and I am making it happen this spring. What fun memories and a great trip for you and your Mr! Beautifully CandidReplyDelete
Just caught up on all your recaps. So much fun! I LOVE New York. I used to go into the city often, pre-babies and pre-Tim. While, not in Manhattan, I also had Yankees season tickets for a few years. Tim HATES everything about New York, so we don't get there very often anymore. We were there in February 2015 for NBA All Star, otherwise it's been a while. NYC during Christmas is amazing. Anyway, I've been to NYC so many times and I've actually never been to Central park. Loving the pictures you got there! And I've also been to the Empire State Building many, many times - the last company I worked for had an office in there! So glad you enjoyed your trip. You guys packed so much into your weekend there! If you ever head to NYC again, you'll have to let me know and maybe I can make the drive in and meet up!ReplyDelete
What a view from the top!! Definitely adding that to my list for my next visit! As a high school graduation gift, my mom took me to NYC for a few days, with my aunt and cousin. We had a BLAST and ate at Serendipity twice, we just loved it that much! I've been back to the city a bunch of times since then but haven't been back to Serendipity, but I think I might have to change that!ReplyDelete
Oh my gosh that lady! I love it! I cannot wait to go to NYC near Christmas! Life long dream of mine, one day it will happen! What a fantastic trip!ReplyDelete
Mmmm Serendipity and that frozen hot chocolate!! Your making me miss Christmas with these photos!!ReplyDelete
This whole trip looks like a dream friend. NYC at Christmas time, pinch me!ReplyDelete

First skirt and it's a 'Meh'
Yesterday I was very busy. I took all twenty four measurements, wrung my hands a bit, drafted the basic skirt pattern, sewed it up, did something ridiculously stupid to the zipper, frothed at the mouth, ripped it out and inserted another one.
Not an invisible one, just a normal one, because I don't have any invisible zips yet and this is just my 'muslin'. A muslin made out of red twill with a bit of stretch. It's just as well I didn't use semi-precious hoarded fabric (for once), because it's a bit big on the waist. What do you think, a smaller waist measurement or bigger darts?
Or maybe I should just move onto another one of the skirt variations now I have my basic pattern. Because this is how I feel about the shape:
It would be fine if I worked in a office. Or had appropriate footwear. Or non-purple legs. But seeing as none of those statements apply to me, I think I need something less corporate. Or would a different fabric be enough? I will wait here by the computer until you tell me what to do.
20 comments:
I say try it in a different fabric, as I like the shape and length. I cannot comment on the waist dilemma, however.ReplyDelete
- Anonymous12 March 2010 at 14:36
Meh, have had the same issue - thought measurements were right but it was too big at the waist (actually something I LIKE discovering, to justify the scotch egg I just ate) - I took it in a bit but still not right.ReplyDelete
Hmmmmmmm, I think it would lose its corporate image if it was a more casual fabric, like cord or denim (meh) or similar. OR if it was a grown-up-but-pretty print. I like the cut on you though. How are your knees? Could you go shorter?
I've been putting off getting Husby to take pics of me in mine for the very same reason...
I havnt even started yet, I think you need to go slightly longer on the kneee and it needs something on it to detract from the plainness of it. Some applique or something on one side a bit bodenesque would make it loook great. I think the style suits you, just not sure on the plainessReplyDelete
So, no to the darts in the front. They'd just add curve to your front, which would give you a tummy you don't have. You could deepen the darts at the back just a 1/4 inch or so, to give your waist and bum better definition back there. The fit looks good at the hip, so I'd shave a bit off the waist (after you deepen the back darts) and blend it into the current seamline around the hip area. I also think it would be more fun in a cute print and an inch or two shorter. The length is definitely "corporate".ReplyDelete
I am not an expertise; but I think lenght and colour are ok, maybe some darts on waist would resolve the problem...ReplyDelete
PS: make me smile your statement: "fennel is evil"!
Yep, different fabric. Looks good though.ReplyDelete
Oh, I meant - shave off the waist at the side seams - in case that wasn't clear.ReplyDelete
You've had great advice for waist fixes so I can't add to that. But... I reckon the *shoes* are what gives it the corporate feel. Can you try a pair of knee-high boots and see if that makes a difference? Also fabric choice will make a big difference...but who am I to tell YOU that!!!ReplyDelete
I love the shape, I think its just the red plain fabric that makes it look corporate. I'd love to see it in something fun and flirty.....flowers or lovely and colourful. Cant wait to see it :D xxReplyDelete
See? I knew you could just whip it up once you set your mind to it. All this fretting about being behind.ReplyDelete
I think it will be cute in a different fabric. The first picture hints at how cute it could be in something with a little movement.
I agree that the first skirt in the book is a little blah. But I don't think a ruffle would suit me, so I'm going to try it in the pretty Amy Butler and see if it helps.
I wonder if we're all going to hate our own and like each others?
I can't really add much to what everyone else has said - but I'm hoping I have the same problems with waist fit (just eaten about a quarter of a pan of chocolate brownies. Somehow I doubt it).ReplyDelete
it sounds like your original waist msmt was too big; i would go back to that rather than increasing the darts. and i wouldn't advise moving on to the other variations until you work out the fit on this one, or you'll have a cuter style that still doesn't fit right ;n)ReplyDelete
also, for a muslin, you don't have to put in the zipper/waistband/hem ntil you check the fit. usually you just sew the side seams (leaving the top 7" or so open-- where the zipper would be-- so you can get it on) and the darts. it's a good idea to stay-stitch the waistline to keep it from stretching, but you don't need to finish it. then if the fit is right and you like the fabric, you can go ahead and finish the skirt...
i think you're off to a great start though! cheers!
I really like it! It is a bit office-wear though. I'd try a different fabric, maybe with a contrasting band at the hem.ReplyDelete
Bron is right, it's your shoes that make it office. Boots or a wedge mule and you'd be on a whole different scale. You have very nice knees btw.ReplyDelete
Wow! A bunch of awesome comments! I'm not on flickr yet - hopefully you all give me comments too! I like appliques at the bottom of skirts.ReplyDelete
It's looking great, and will look lovely with a bit of pattern or applique. :-)ReplyDelete
prob a bit officey. i wear skirts like that for work. but mine are on the knee length, so maybe a bit longer. in colourful fabrics, with plain tops . usually with suede boots. and i don't have purple legs!ReplyDelete
Hey :) You rock for venturing into adult clothing! I'm so scared to. If you want to fancy it up a bit to be less "corporate", what about add some buttons like on this skirt (http://www.anthropologie.com/anthro/catalog/productdetail.jsp?subCategoryId=CLOTHES-SKIRTS-HIGHWAIST&id=023104&catId=CLOTHES-SKIRTS&pushId=CLOTHES-SKIRTS&popId=CLOTHES&sortProperties=&navCount=390&navAction=top&fromCategoryPage=true&selectedProductSize=&selectedProductSize1=&color=092&colorName=LIGHT%20DENIM&isSubcategory=true&isProduct=true&isBigImage=&templateType=)? Or add some type of texture, lace, ruffle, ribbon, trim, etc. to the bottom of it? It's a pretty color :)ReplyDelete
Thanks everyone for your advice, it's been very helpful! I think the issue was that I intended to have it sit on my low waist (so used bigger measurement than high waist) but I got the distance between my hips and waist wrong so that moved the waist up to my high waist where it was too big. That (maybe) will make sense to Cool Girls, but probably not anyone else!ReplyDelete
I was thinking about some applique or screenprinting around the hem to funk it up a bit, but it was just my muslin so I'm not sure I'll bother... I definitely have some nicer fabric in mind for when I get the pattern right!
@bron and pickled weasal: I did actually wear it with boots yesterday and it looked a bit better!
it looks pretty good, structurally. maybe you could embellish with a flounce on the bottom or a fun patch made from wooly sweaters or old t-shirts!ReplyDelete

The first introduction for The Dagger's health and fitness column was about how to decide your F-I-T factor and how to get moving on your journey to become fit. To be honest, food comes time and time again right to the top of the list of problems when people are trying to become healthier. If you exercise your heart out day in and day out without adjusting your diet, unless you have awesome family genes, you will most likely struggle obtaining your goals.
Food, calories, yada yada–it is a tough subject. And, everyone asks me about food even though I'm not a Nutritionist or Dietician. Food is part of personal training. I struggle with food too. I mean I'm only human, and in a world where there is commercial after commercial for McDonald's, Wendy's, Chili's etc. it sometimes difficult to avoid crap. Our world is filled with options of food that do not fuel our body appropriately. You have to make a conscious decision to choose to eat healthy—everyday.
I tell my clients who need to lose weight to write everything down, but I don't. I'm not a hypocrite, I just currently do not desire to lose weight. That's not my goal. I think writing a food journal is a pain, but I have learned over the years, and I did previously write EVERYTHING—seriously, every single thing down. It works. It holds you accountable because who wants to write down that they ate a Big Mac with large fries and a large coke? Or a Venti Frappachino with whipped cream? So, if you want to lose weight then I highly recommend keeping a food journal.
What I can tell you, as a personal trainer, is a generalization of how to eat and what to eat. I can also let you know what I've learned over the years, and what has worked for me. Will it work for you? Who knows, because each of us are different and our bodies although it is generally the same, some of our bodies like more fat, some more protein, some more carbs, etc. In fact, one of my fellow RKC's, Tracy Reifkind, just wrote an article about food journals because I complained about it. Those lovely apps that everyone downloads on their phones are terrible—why, you ask? Well, because they expect you to eat food with bar codes. If you don't, then you have to literally itemize every single item in your salad or dinner. Talk about tedious–my salad has a lot of vegetables, avocado, some chicken, and an egg…no barcode there.
Here's the bottom line about food—I eat when I'm hungry. I eat real food all the time. I do love ice cream though—I even have an ice cream cone tattooed on my underarm. TMI, right. I have a splurge day on the weekend and sometimes it both days, but not always. I overeat on the weekends because I choose not to moderate self-control on the weekends—I CHOOSE not to. However, sometimes I do choose self-control on the weekends, especially if a vacation is coming up because I know I'll splurge a little more there. That's just me. Every person will differ here. I've had clients who cannot have splurge days because they cannot get back on track. I've had clients who just dislike the splurge days because the food is so different and makes their bodies feel sluggish. Moving on.
Let's talk about HOW to eat. I've learned that if I eat REAL FOOD, REAL FREAKING FOOD SERIOUSLY that my body works and feels great! It's funny because in Michael Pollan's book, he says "Eat food. Not too much. Mostly plants." I love that and it was the best advice that I've read so far in a book. I don't need to overeat as much when I follow his advice. When I eat crap food it runs through me. It doesn't sustain my body. There is a huge difference between good calories and empty calories—i.e., salad with free range chicken, loaded with vegetables vs. pop tarts or some frozen dinner. I just read this from the Lift Big Eat Big blog and had to share, "if you can't picture it [the food you're about to eat] within three stages of it's natural state (good luck breaking a Pop-Tart down to this), you likely shouldn't be eating it." Think about that.
Here are some ways to decipher your food consumption:
1. Can you tell the difference between boredom and hunger?
2. Are you really hungry or just confusing thirst for hunger?
3. Is your goal realistic? You cannot give up something forever. Fat free and sugar free just bring on more chemicals for your body. Plus, often those items are worse for you because they have to do things to make them taste better minus the natural properties they hold.
4. Get rid of emotional eating. Seriously, just stop. Don't run to food. Do something else. Go outside and run around the block. Your dog needs a walk. He/she will help you get through the moment.
Let's move on. Now that you have some tips and pointers on HOW to eat, you need to know WHAT to eat. I can't exactly tell you WHAT to eat—see above reasoning, but, I will give you generalizations. You already know, most likely, that we are creatures of habit. We do not like change. Pick a week of your best foods: things you eat, things you like, things you want to eat. Most likely your diet will revolve around these particular meals. However, there may need to be some revisions to clean up these items if they consist of just chicken nuggets, macaroni and cheese, and corn. Just saying…
I've met families and couples who have created a food menu for the month just based on a series of meals mixed up each week and that's how they regulate what they eat. This also allows the kids to help cook, and helps the cooks of the house to determine who will fix which meal. Personally, I cook most of my food on Sundays because I know that by the time I get home after a long day, I will be starving and start to eat bad stuff while waiting for dinner to cook. (Even though I don't keep bad food in the house, it seems like I can always find something that isn't as good for me as my dinner!) So, by being able to heat up my food or just throw some thawed fish on the grill or in the oven, I'm ready to rock with food that will refuel my body until breakfast time. It works for me.
Here are some things to consider in the WHAT to eat category:
1. Eggs—good protein. They are one of few proteins that is almost complete, and, you can eat the whole darn thing. Don't waste the yolk—there's good stuff in it (I've blogged about eggs on my website if you want more information). I'll either eat 2 eggs or 3 egg whites with 1 egg depending on the day.
2. Good fats—fat free sucks! Have you ever tried an avocado? They are mighty yummy. How about coconuts? A real one! This is an example of good fat. Now, you have to be careful because they are certainly calorie dense, but your body needs fat.
3. Lean meats—you should know that I'm not really a meat eater, I struggle and don't like it much. However, more recently I've been doing chicken from Rousedale Farm because I know Rouse takes good care of those ladies (and some gents too) and they are free range—able to eat bugs if they wish. Grass fed beef (grass fed AND finished can be found locally, just ask questions), pork, turkey, you name it. Eat it up in moderate portions. Avoid sauces. Just use spices to avoid adding calories.
4. Vegetables—ALL OF THEM! What do you say about vegetables? Yum? Good fiber. Fills you up. Yeah.
5. Fruits—some. Fruits have natural sugars. That isn't entirely bad. But, it is still sugar and should be consumed in moderation. Fruit is good for you because again there is fiber and lots of antioxidants.
Bottom line to eating: There isn't a quick fix. There isn't a magic pill. Living healthy means making a decision and pursuing it with good food and exercise. Go to the Farmer's Market—all real food there. Plus, you get to help our your fellow locals.
Do it up! Live your life with a smile.

I was stumped for awhile. Checking a lot of references, I finally came up with a name. Just a few hours later, Scott Namestnik sent me his determination, and the name was the same. This is Lespedeza cuneata, the Sericea or Chinese Bush-clover. It is one of the white flowering species. The colored blotch is purple not pink. The leaves are wedge shaped and end in a fine tip.

Lespedeza Bush Clovers
Sometimes I hesitate to put up posts on topics where I don't illustrate every single species. This is especially true with the insects. If I waited till I had photos of every species of a genus, I'd never post anything. I also worry about posting out of season material. Based on all the verbal comments I've received lately from people I run into, they like my format. So I'll go out there and do, continue to do, the voodoo that I do so well.

Good Morning DenPro! Just come across your botany blog and what a joy it is!!! Your non-natives (I saw lovely butterbur, Petasites hybridus, in a previous post) are often my natives (I'm in East Kent in England - bottom right hand corner). Spring is just springing here and we've had unseasonally warm weather, although the Met Office say that is all about to change in April - back to cold and wet :-( Best wishes MelReplyDelete
Hi Mel, I'll bet some of our natives become a nuisance in your area as well. Thanks for tuning in.ReplyDelete

YUV seems to only use the range 16 to 235 (luma) and 16 to 240 (chroma). Why does it not use full range (0 to 255) for all its channels? Is that because the full range of values in YUV (0 to 255) not only covers all displayable colors, but also colors that are brighter than white (IRE 100) (such as overshoot of the chroma carrier on the color yellow) and darker than black (7.5 IRE) colors (such as blanking (0 IRE) and sync (-40 IRE))?

As I understand it, YUV has its roots in analog TV with normalized ranges like
In the digital realm ITU-R BT.601-7 "maps" this for 8bit limited range SDTV component video like
Cb[16 ... 240]
Cr[16 ... 240]
The justification which I found for the limited range of Y,Cb,Cr is to reserve some footroom and headroom for chrominance and luminance, which is necessary to provide some space for overshooting, e.g. in combination with analog video equipment.
Still, within the limited range, there are plenty of Y,Cb,Cr combinations which lead to illegal RGB values.
I have some doubts whether U and V should be used in the context of digital video at all as synonyms for Cb and Cr, but I might be wrong. Someone more knowledgeable may chime in ........

YUV can use Full Range on both Luma and Chroma. My Android phone actually captures in Full Range YV12, to which I have to convert it back to Limited if I ever want to do anything with it. Have not cared enough to look into changing the settings.
As for why analog YUV TV had blacker than black and whiter than whites, I can only assume it's so that recovery of a clipping image is possible by people further down the chain. I have no idea and that's just a guess.
The maximum Luma (Y') was normally pretty well within the upper 235....240 limit, with some pixels in certain scenes occasionally peaking to 243, mainly around sharp high contrast transitions (> 235 probably halos and other artefacts).
The minimum Luma was as low as 10, but this can be attributed to noise, mainly found in the 'Blue' component. Discarding this noise the minimum was around 16....17.
The Chroma range was never a problem, as expected.
Also, checking for illegal RGB values did not reveal anything which would request urgent action, with the exception of perhaps few scenes with highly saturated synthetic colors e.g. from plastic objects. RGB components were occasionally clipped. Reducing the saturation somewhat brought the RGB back to legal values, but the few hard clipped signal excursions remained of course.
Last edited by Sharc; 24th Jan 2021 at 07:28. Reason: Typos
Y′ values are conventionally shifted and scaled to the range [16, 235] (referred to as studio swing or "TV levels") rather than using the full range of [0, 255] (referred to as full swing or "PC levels"). This practice was standardized in SMPTE-125M in order to accommodate signal overshoots ("ringing") due to filtering. The value 235 accommodates a maximal black-to-white overshoot of 255 − 235 = 20, or 20 / (235 − 16) = 9.1%, which is slightly larger than the theoretical maximal overshoot (Gibbs phenomenon) of about 8.9% of the maximal step. The toe-room is smaller, allowing only 16 / 219 = 7.3% overshoot, which is less than the theoretical maximal overshoot of 8.9%. This is why 16 is added to Y′ and why the Y′ coefficients in the basic transform sum to 220 instead of 255.[9] U and V values, which may be positive or negative, are summed with 128 to make them always positive, giving a studio range of 16–240 for U and V. (These ranges are important in video editing and production, since using the wrong range will result either in an image with "clipped" blacks and whites, or a low-contrast image.)

Over the course of my career here, I have toured dozens of plants all over the country. I have seen high-tech facilities, and some frighteningly low tech. I have marveled at the sparklingly clean digital manufacturing wonders, I have been coated in oil fogs from a hundred decrepit spraying systems.
During these visits, however interesting they are, there's always this kind of gap. This disconnect between me, taking notes as GMs and executives tell me about all the stuff they're doing, and the people on the floor actually doing the stuff.
From this perspective they seem almost mechanical—these highly-trained, experienced workers doing jobs I can't imagine with unimaginable skill just working away in the background doing their thing.
It's always an uncomfortable arrangement. They smile awkwardly at me staring over their shoulders while I try to guess what it is they're doing and how they're so good at it. And that's weird because these are the people I'm writing for; this is the story I'm trying to find. But I'm removed from them because they are working, and I am working. The two of us never really seemed to meet.
That gap was finally closed for me last month. During my plant visit to the KEEN PM factory, the company did something weird.
Rather than just walking me through the edges as usual, they actually put me on the line. They had me cram uppers onto their fixtures, set the outsoles into the molds, even cut flash from the assembled boots—every major operation in the factory except for QA, of course. Someone had to check my work.
I walked away from the event absolutely shaken. I mean, I worked plenty of assembly jobs in my teens and through college. But I never really considered anything but the task ahead of me. Now, maybe because of my job and the understanding of the process it's given me, the whole thing seemed heavy.
Throughout the process, I was keenly aware that what I was doing was going to end up on somebody's foot somewhere. That every uneven misstep I made figuring this out would directly impact the final quality and ultimately the reputation of this company.
Understand, of course, I was closely watched and corrected by the real workers there, so there was no real chance that a mistake would actually make it through. But the potential felt real.
I'm not sure what KEEN's intention was in this activity, whether it was meant to be a learning experience or just a fun way to mix up their annual event. But I walked away with a profound new understanding of the industry.
This is a company that's trying to make U.S. production work, trying to prove that real manufacturing and real hands-on assembly operations like this are still viable and profitable in this country. By putting the work in my hands, in the hands of a know-nothing writer who is always a few steps removed, it made that point loud and clear.
Manufacturing isn't a concept, it isn't a movement, it isn't a political rally cry. It's a thing that people do. It's a job, and a vital one.
And something in that honestly felt good. I made four pairs of boots while at the factory. I had my hands in this new innovation, this new platform that's trying to change the way shoemaking works. I was part of the story, however briefly and clumsily. And I walked away feeling better about that than anything I've done in quite a while.

Can you design a professional logo under 10 minutes using Photoshop? One of the biggest problems entrepreneurs have when starting a website online is doing something to make their website stand out. Every website you start should be unique in some way – content wise, design wise or something else.
If you look at most of the big websites online, they have high quality content as well as a high quality design. An example is Quick Online Tips – the design is well laid out, content is easy to read, the logo stands out and sets it apart from the other blogs in the niche.
Now, one of the first things you'll want to do when you start your website is get a nice brandable logo, especially in non-tech niches. For your average visitor, a brandable, fresh logo can help them remember your website and there's a greater chance of visiting assuming your content and design are up to scratch. Think of it this way – you have the chance of visiting Blog A or Blog B, both of which had high quality content. However, Blog A has a high quality logo whereas Blog B does not – which are you more likely to visit and remember?
If you have multiple sites, especially start-ups, and no design skills, outsourcing logos can get expensive. The minimum you'd expect to pay for a logo is around ten dollars, while prices can go up to hundreds of dollars if you're looking for something really high quality. When starting though, you'll want to keep your costs as low as possible – this post will teach you how to create a high quality logo in ten minutes or less, as well as show you an example. I recommend you create your logo on a transparent background in Photoshop so you can directly apply it to your website.
1. Getting a high quality image
Although you can have a plain text logo, it'll stand out more if your visitors can associate an image with your website. To find an image you can use, simply Google "free icons" and you'll find a lot of websites you can use.
One of my favourites is Icon Finder.net which allows you to search icons (and filter to show only those which allow commercial use). IconFinder has over 150,000 icons you can look through so you should find something for any niche.
2. Choosing a high quality font
Using a high quality font is just as important as the image you decide to use. Two of my favorites are Calibri and MS Sans Serif, but again, Google will help you find lots of fonts you can use. A good list of fonts (over 100) that you can play around with can be found at Instant Shift – there are some very nice ones there.
You want your font to be easy to read as well as look professional and stand out from the traditional fonts. Try not to use ones that are too common like Times New Roman or Arial – there are hundreds of free fonts out there, so pick one that's unique!
3. Applying effects
You could find a font and paste it next to a logo, but that probably won't give you the look you want. To make your logo look professional and fit your website, you'll want to apply some effects. Three effects you could use are:
Gradient: A gradient is basically where your logo goes from light to dark (or vice versa). You can apply the gradient effect to just your image, just your font or to both.
Reflection: When the Web 2.0 craze started many websites were using reflections in their logos. This is slightly less common now, but it can still look nice if done correctly.
Shading: You can apply a shading effect to the borders of your logo, giving your text a more embellished look. Something else you could do is apply a shadow effect to the image used in your logo – this will help it stand out.
We created logos using the above method. Time taken? Seven minutes.
The bottom line is that making a simple logo is not as difficult as it sounds, even for those that are not good at design. Play around Photoshop – there are dozens of fonts, images and effects you can try and after a bit of practice you'll be creating high quality logos in no time!

Spanish students take to the stage
A unique collaboration between the University of St Andrews and the Byre Theatre will see a group of Spanish students take to the stage tonight (Friday 6 May 2011).
The initiative between the local theatre and the University's Department of Spanish will see sixty-six first year students perform one of the most ambitious plays of the twentieth century entirely in Spanish.
Working on the premise that plays are written to be performed, students will perform Ramón del Valle-Inclán's most famous and challenging play Luces de bohemia, rather than study it through the traditional means of lectures and seminar discussions.
The production, which will be staged for one night only tonight, offers Spanish speakers and students of Spanish a unique opportunity to watch the famous play.
Students have been divided into groups with specific responsibilities for staging different scenes with different students playing, in some instances, the same characters, at different stages of the play.
The initiative is the brainchild of Professor Fowler. He commented, "Our students have only had three weeks to put this production together. None of them are professional actors, and they have had to memorise lines in a foreign language. We still hope that this will be a memorable experience for the performers and audience alike."
The initiative goes back to 2005 when 94 first-year students staged Ramón del Valle-Inclán's Romance de lobos at the Byre as part of their undergraduate studies. This successful production was followed in 2007 by the staging of Valle-Inclán's extraordinary play Divinas palabras.
Ramón del Valle-Inclán's Luces de Bohemia [1924] will be performed at the Byre Theatre in St Andrews on Friday 6 May 2011 at 7.30pm.
Tickets are only £2 and can be acquired from the Byre box office (01334 475000).
For further information, please contact the School of Modern Languages on 01334 463670, email [email protected] or Professor Nigel Dennis on 01334 462954, email [email protected].

New Delhi: The Supreme Court on Wednesday said that it will examine whether a person in power can be held accountable for making a statement in public about a rape victim who has the fundamental right of protection of life and personal liberty.
A bench of Justices Dipak Misra and A M Khanwilkar said that it will have to see whether the fundamental right of freedom of speech and expression will be governed under reasonable restriction of decency or morality or other preferred fundamental rights will also have impact on it.
"Both Article 19 (freedom of speech and expression) and Article 21 (protection of life and personal liberty) are preferred rights.
"We need to see whether freedom of speech and expression which is not absolute can be governed only by reasonable restriction provided under Article 19 (2) or Article 21, will also have impact on it," the bench said.
It said, "The core issue, as is projected before us, is whether the right conferred under Article 19(1)(a) is to be controlled singularly by the language employed under Article 19(2) or also the other fundamental right, that is right under Article 21 would have any impact on it."
The bench, while giving an example, said that if a minister or government servant like a DGP in exercise of freedom of speech and expression makes a statement that alleged incident of rape is false or an outcome of political controversy then can he be held accountable.
It further said that the said statement of the minister or government servant may give a direction to the probe in the case and impact the fundamental right of the rape victim under Article 21 of Constitution.
The court was hearing a plea filed by a man whose wife and daughter were gangraped in July last on a highway near Bulandshahr, seeking transfer of the case to Delhi, besides lodging of an FIR against former Uttar Pradesh minister Azam Khan for terming the alleged incident as an outcome of political controversy.
The top court had earlier said it would deliberate upon the questions framed by it on the freedom of speech and expression and probable impact of statements of those holding high offices on free and fair probe in heinous cases including rape and molestation.
Attorney General Mukul Rohatgi said reasonable restrictions are already provided for Article 19(1)(a) in 19 (2) in the bracket of decency or morality.

I Leave You My Heart; - A Visitandine Chronicle of the French Revolution
Price: $26.95
Place Published: Philadelphia
Publisher: Saint Joseph's University Press
Date Published: 2000
Book ID: 22
158 pages + introduction and bibliography | 8.5 x 5.5 inches | 6 b/w images
I Leave You My Heart makes available, in English translation, the firsthand account of the travails of the nuns of the Lyons Bellecour monastery of the Order of the Visitation of Holy Mary during the French Revolution. Unlike accounts of other convents of this period, this is not a chronicle of martyrdom. Its author, Marie-Jéronyme Vérot, the monastery's mother superior, offers instead a narrative of divine intervention, as she recounts the intertwined tales of the virtually miraculous escape of her community from the terror and persecution of revolutionary France to re-found their monastery in Mantua, and of the providential preservation during this course of events of these Visitandines' most prized possession, the relic of the heart of their founder, St. Francis de Sales. In the ideological wars of the age, this relic represented an enormously important weapon, and the revolutionary authorities were anxious to confiscate it in order to deprive it of its charisma. But at every turn, these nefarious characters are frustrated and thwarted in their schemes by the simple, but resolute nuns.
The translation is preceded by a double introduction. The first, by Jo Ann Kay McNamara, author of Sisters in Arms: Catholic Nuns through Two Millennia (Harvard University Press, 1996), firmly situates Mère Vérot's chronicle in the context of the historical circumstances of the times, and of the evolution of Salesian/Visitandine spirituality. Complementing this approach, the translator's introduction provides an overview of the four major periods of the history of the Visitation Order from its foundation to the Revolution, as well as discusses how the relic of De Sales' heart came into the nuns' possession and the author's biography.
Peronne-Marie Thibert, V.H.M., ed., trans.
"[Mother Vérot's] letter remains to us as a testament to the courage and ingenuity of the 'simple women' who clung so fiercely to their profession and their faith in the midst of revolutionary turmoil. It remains also as an invaluable window onto the sensibilities of the more conservative forces who have been marginalized by the historian's magnetic attraction to the new and progressive in human history."
Jo Ann Kay McNamara from the Introduction
"Although much has been written about the role and experiences of the French clergy — parish priests as well as higher clergy — the history of religious sisters has largely been neglected. This has not been due to a lack of original sources. Religious congregations have left vast archives depicting their daily lives and inner experiences, but to date few scholars have availed themselves of the riches contained in these documents. This chronicle is evidence that further study of these sources is well worth undertaking."
Jo Ann Browning Seeley, Catholic Historical Review
