Spellbound Quilt Along
The Spellbound Quilt Along with the Fat Quarter Shop was last week Spellbound Quilt Along - Fat Quarter Shop's Jolly Jabber and I am a few day late due to a number of things. I wanted to share my completed quilt top with you before I send it off to a longarm quilter to be finished. I love piecing quilts and quilting small quilts but I cannot do the patterns and designs on anything this large or anywhere near what Irene Hensley does with her long arm! So off she goes!

Spellbound Quilt Along
Hi Everyone, welcome to In The Boon Docks! I am almost done with my Spellbound Quilt and will have it up tomorrow! An few unexpected hospital procedures and running out of a primary fabric kind of threw me for a loop!
1. I use small Wonder clips to show what side to sew on and a large Wonder clip to hold each section together! This helps when you are chain piecing!
2. Use a 1/4" sewing foot on you machine and Chain piece - even the strips it will go faster that way.
3. Get the Creative Grid 90 Degree Double Strip Ruler you will find lots of uses for these and other blocks you can think up. It is a great investment and so easy to use.
Check out the Spellbound Quilt Along - Fat Quarter Shop's Jolly Jabber then watch the Youtube Video to see just how easy these beautiful blocks are to make. I am making this quilt for my Granddaughter and am super excited about getting it finished.
Please stop by the other bloggers in the quilt along and see the variety of ways this quilt pattern can look by just colors placement!

I sew when I am happy, sad, mad, just about anytime I want!
Others sew to raise money for the rent, electric, or just enough to have lunch out once a month!
I have a story to tell of a blogger I followed for about 5 years then one day she stopped blogging. Her quilts are beautiful! She was always willing to help new quilters! Always made the world seem a little better! She always wrote at the end of her posts
"Cheery Wave Bev"
Not long ago I was having giveaways for Impressions, Orange Peel Templates, I notified one of the winners and guess what she signed "Cheery Wave Bev"! I was shocked! I asked her where she had been and found out she had been through some bad times! Her 25 years old sewing machine had died. She had used sewing to supplement her Social Security. It had been broken for months which hasn't helped her situation.
I feel "God" puts people in your path and it is your choice if you help them or not! I feel he wants me to help her and I hope you might help too!
I am running Auctions on Instagrams and have others planned! Quilters Square in Kentucky Quilter's Square | Lexington, KY | BERNINA Dealer has offered to collect donations! It makes it all legitimate!
To donate - use PayPal to send money to firstname.lastname@example.com
In the notes please write: Blossomandbev
Send a little or a lot!
It is a good cause to help another quilter get back on her feet.
Whatever money we raise will go to a sewing machine if we go over the quilt shop will send her a gift certificate to their online store!
Everyone needs to know someone out there in the world cares! Let's show her we do! Thank you from the bottom of my heart for reading! Lisa

I didn't really know what I was doing when I started and had only seen the way others had made "Orange Peel Block" so my first block started out like this and then I watched the video and had my "ah ha" moment!
I have fallen in love with making Orange Peels! Just a change in color or arrangement you can change the look of your block! Best part it is easy!
On the first two blocks I used Bella Cotton Solid Mango #9900-222 (dark orange) with Aurifil 50 wt. thread #1104 for appliqué and Bella Solid Amelia Orange #9900-161 with Aurifil 50 wt. thread #2150 for appliqué! As you can see they match quite well!
After some voting on Instagram Lisa Johnson (@intheboondocks) • Instagram photos and videos it was decided this was the best color arrangement for this block! My husband chose these colors: Bella Cotton Solid Imperial Blue #9900-307 with Aurifil 50 wt. thread #2730 for appliqué and Bella Cotton Solid Sunflower #9900-221 with Aurifil 50 wt. thread #1135
Tip: On the block below - I used 4" background blocks to give myself a little wiggle room. The look is the same but the block is a little larger!

After swatching all my lovely new Lush Lacquers the other day I was desperate to use them with some nail art, so decided to do a fishtail manicure in blue using Dreamsicle, with some coordinating stripes over the nails with Dreamsicle on.
For the fishtail nails I used Accessorize Electric Blue, Barry M Blueberry Ice Cream and Collection Cosmetics White. I previously did a tutorial for fishtail nails, so if you want some tips, take a look here.

Klee's original painting that is copied.
Four and five year old can handle this just fine. I might help some with breaking the face into shapes for them to color with crayons. Head is cut from white paper, shoulders from brown paper and then glued onto orange. This is an education for the parents as well who are not familiar with art history.
I always image google the work to get a black and white image to attach so the parents understand
the origin and the name of artist and time period.

It's a Tuesday afternoon at Sierra Vista Cinemas 16, and Santa Rosa Entertainment Group vice president Neil Pearlmutter shares the various measures the Clovis theater has taken within the past decade to stay relevant in a constantly evolving industry — all from the comfort of its latest upgrade, of course: power reclining seats.
Resting in a corner of Sierra Vista Cinemas 16's lobby, the placement of what were meant to be two samples of what local theatergoers would come to expect during this fall's nearly two-month seat installation process offers a comfy, uninhibited view of the steady stream of patrons and employees passing through the space.
Promotional displays featuring upcoming films of "xXx: Return of Xander Cage," "Rogue One: A Star Wars Story" and "The Boss Baby" create a barrier surrounding what has become a makeshift office for those whose regular work areas are being outfitted with new carpet. In auditorium No. 10, the latest and greatest in sound system technology, Dolby Atmos, is being put in for Thursday evening's guests (and audiophiles) to experience.
Change is simply part of the game for this place.

"It's somewhat of a small industry, so you get to know everyone and the products. They'll call and say, 'We have this new something. Want to try it?' " Pearlmutter explained. "It's about knowing what's out there, weighing what people are going to like or not and if we think it's going to be supported. Are the companies making them going to keep updating it? Are the studios going to give content for it?"
Since its opening in December 2006, which Pearlmutter happened to oversee, the Santa Rosa Entertainment Group theater has been on the receiving end of a series of changes, starting with the gradual introduction of digital projectors in 2009 to the addition of Barco Escape — a panoramic, multi-screen movie format — with 2015's feature film, "Maze Runner: The Scorch Trials."
Sierra Vista Cinemas 16 is the only theater of the company's 11 California locations to house this unique feature, Pearlmutter said, citing its population, auditorium No. 7's dimensions and the vice president's personal affection for the site as some of the factors that went into the decision.
But when it came to installing power reclining seats toward the end of August, the reconversion system had already been practiced and refined in two previous Santa Rosa Entertainment Group theaters — the transition never closing Sierra Vista Cinemas 16's doors completely, but one eight-auditorium wing at a time.
"We had to build out the stadium risers, so they are wider to fit the seats — before there were about 48 inches from row to row and now there are about 80 inches," Pearlmutter said. "We had to reconfigure the entire seating area and add electrical because they're powered."
The diligently researched, plush recliners provide patrons with a cup holder to place their drinks, swing-out food tray to accommodate a handful of the snack bar's offerings and a motorized actuator that brings the seat to a nice recline when pushed. Auditoriums range from 65 seats in Sierra Vista Cinemas 16's smaller theaters to 155 in its largest, cutting the original occupancy nearly in half.
Still, that doesn't seem to deter community members from praising the theater's latest upgrade, which officially opened to the public with the first auditorium in late October, said Pearlmutter. Theater-goers and box office attendants alike have steadily grown accustomed to Sierra Vista Cinemas 16's reserved seating, requiring guests to select their seat before even entering the auditorium.
"The box office staff has to be patient and proactive in guiding people through the process the first few times — here's the layout, here's the monitor," he said. "But after that, we've experienced people coming up and saying, 'I want E3' like it's Battleship. They know where they're going."
Online ticket purchases have also ticked up since the shift, with the ratio now 50/50 between movietickets.com and the box office.
Locals have had a couple months to settle into the theater's updated operation — but don't get too comfortable, Clovisians. Pearlmutter points to the wall the sample chairs are sitting against, which encloses Sierra Vista Cinemas 16's party room. A portion of the area will soon house a built-in bar, and serve guests an expanded menu of wine, beer, gourmet sausages, paninis, pizza and more.
Construction on the new amenity will start in January 2017, with Pearlmutter explaining that the additional water lines, drainage and electrical maneuvering shouldn't require too lengthy of a time frame before theater-goers can fully take advantage of it.
"As an industry, we have to keep up. From the beginning, there were always things being tried and we're following in that suit, but it's definitely bigger now," he said. "We want to give people more of a reason to want to get out. We want you to come here, get your popcorn and maybe have a glass of wine. It can also be 'I got the babysitter; I can go to one place to do it all.' We just want to provide a better experience for the same price."

I felt like I hadn't had a good pancake stack for a while this morning, so after my run I decided to make a Pannekoeken recipe from Colorful Foodie. I love her recipe because she mixes it up a bit to use health(ier) ingredients but still stay true to the main dish! I stayed true to her recipe as well besides the fact that I used coconut sugar instead of cane sugar. The pancakes were awesome!!
I also sautéed up some apples with cinnamon and coconut oil to put warm pancakes in between the Pannekoeken stacks, with some unsweetened coconut flakes and a small drizzle of honey as well. Perfect breakfast!

You don't need a PhD in the history of alcohol Prohibition to realise that banning drugs doesn't have a great record. So when we warned the government banning 'Spice' (now a catch-all for 'synthetic cannabinoids') and other so-called 'legal highs', would gift the market to criminals, make drugs stronger and more dangerous, and harm not protect people, it was we thought, stating the obvious. Especially as we saw precisely that happen in Ireland and Poland after similar bans.
Pictured - 30g compressed block of 'Spice' worth thousands of pounds, seized from a prisoner
And the 'Psychoactive Substances Act' has done all those things - just look at places like Wrexham and Manchester where the homeless are suffering in particular - as well as the crisis in our prisons. The comparatively weaker 'Spice' variants have vanished from the market, leaving only those far more potent and toxic than cannabis, widely associated with dependence, seizures and death. Recently, this reached a new high with pure Spice crystals found in Manchester poisoning people who mistook them for MDMA. And prices may have gone up, but not enough to prevent 'Spice' being widely available and used.
So I feel genuine anger when I hear politicians say the ban was a success because use fell initially, and it ended highstreet sales. But that is exactly the line in the new UK Drug Strategy.
Worse still, rather than admit their mistake, the government's response has left me feeling like I've woken up as Bill Murray in Groundhog Day. (As an aside, Murray has said: "People are realizing that the war on drugs is a failure, that the amount of money spent, you could have bought all the drugs rather than create this army of people and incarcerated people.")
Mrs May and friends have decided to double-down on their error by undermining the one good aspect of the Psychoactive Substances Act - namely that it didn't criminalise possession for personal use of the drugs it covers. They have now listed many 'Spice' type drugs under the Misuse of Drugs Act, so possession is now an offence. And criminalisation means (as we know from long experience with other illegal drugs) yet more stigmatisation driving people further from help.
So, aside from adding another layer to UK drug prohibition further fueling corruption, mass incarceration, alienation, stigmatisation, and record levels of drug related deaths, (all without deterring use) the blanket ban is going brilliantly!
So what should we do instead?
In the UK, now demand has been established - and a criminal market to meet that demand created by the ban - politicians (including on the Labour side) have to deal with the new reality they have created. And decades of failing to eradicate illegal drug markets show more prohibition will not be the answer. So what is?
1. Legalise and regulate cannabis
In the Netherlands, where cannabis is available from 'coffee shops', the market for 'Spice' type synthetic cannabinoids is virtually non-existent. Because people prefer to use the real thing. Making cannabis legally available in the UK (as is rapidly happening worldwide) would help prevent the next generation of 'Spice' users, and nudge some existing users towards what is a safer drug. Reducing the market in this way would also reduce the incentive for illicit chemists to develop new versions of 'Spice'.
A 'coffee shop' in Amsterdam
2. Help problematic 'Spice' users
Allowing the regulated supply of less harmful synthetic cannabinoids (as well as cannabis) could steer some existing users away from more harmful kinds. But in addition, to radically reduce the health and social impacts of use among prisoners and the homeless who are dependent on 'Spice' (and often other drugs as well) we must provide harm reduction, treatment, and wrap around support. In short, we must care for, not criminalise them. This group have really challenging personal circumstances, moving between prison and the street regularly, and for them there are no quick fixes. 'Spice' provides a cheap form of escape, but ultimately it is the issues that drove them there that need to be addressed if we are to help.
The government is reviewing the Ban and has a new Drug Strategy
Hoorah...No. Don't cheer yet. Yes, the government is currently reviewing the impact of the ban, (as is required for all new Acts) with a view to reporting on it in 2018. But we have very little faith they will do so properly. We have asked exactly what they are looking at - but so far they won't tell us in detail. So I predict they will cherry-pick 'good' outcomes for the press release, and say they are encouraging new initiatives (that are the responsibility of local government or police) to deal with the bad outcomes. And then wash their hands of the mess.
And that is actually the story across their whole approach to drugs - just look at the absence of anything substantially 'new' in the 'refreshed' Drug Strategy. But this is not a case of Einstein's definition of madness - repeating the same thing again and again, expecting different results. No one expects different results. Especially not the government, whose primary goal is to appeal to those seeking simplistic, populist solutions, and at the same time to appear tough. But they know more young, poor and vulnerable people will suffer and die because they won't change direction. And that is unforgivable.
Please join us and help stop them getting away with it. Sign up to our Newsletter (top of page) - a donation from you will help us hold the government to account and enable us to apply more pressure on them to change direction.

AnitaOne day on one of his many journeys, Donovan came across a young girl named Anita. She was an orphan, who was almost completely emotionless. Shunned by her orphanage as a witch, she exhibited a strange and unexplained power. As Donovan came onto the scene, Anita was threatened by a hideous monster. Coming in and easily dispatching the monster, he too is feared by Anita's cowardly guardians. As Donovan turned to leave, Anita began to motion towards Donovan without any words. The people explained that Anita had never exhibited any kind of emotion or word ever since her family was slaughtered by an unknown Darkstalker. Nonchalantly taking his sword Dhylec and slicing off the head of Anita's doll, he proved to the people that Anita's heart wasn't lost as she showed anger at Donovan decapatating her doll by responding with a violent psychic force. Donovan easily subdued the attack and told Anita that anger was the quickest and most easily summoned emotion, and that her anger was proof that she could still heal her own heart. With no where else to go, Donovan welcomed Anita to accompany him to not only find herself, but to help Donovan fight off the evil Darkstalkers as Anita had the unique ability to find them as well. Donovan would help Anita have her revenge and not follow the same troubled path as he.

NEW ULM, Minn. (SabreAthletics.com) -- The Marian University men's basketball team put four players in double figures and outscored host Martin Luther College 14-2 with the help of a 10-point run to close out the second overtime and win the non-conference affair, 90-78, this evening, Dec. 18.
Marian played from behind for the majority of the game, trailing the entire first half before outlasting the Knights in the second overtime for the victory. The Sabres were led by Sam Koslowski, who scored a career-high 27 points on 10-of-18 shooting. Drew Binversie added 20 points, including 12 in both overtimes combined, while Cody Veleke chipped in 15 along with 12 off the bench by Jake Coenen.
Marian improved to 4-6 with the win, while Martin Luther fell to 1-9 with the loss.
After the more than five-hour long trip from Fond du Lac, the Sabres must have dealt with a case of "bus legs" as the Knights jumped out to a 9-0 advantage before taking their largest lead of the game at 15-2 just five minutes in.
However, Marian stayed calm and resilient and slowly chipped away, making it a mere five-point deficit at halftime, 31-26, after Koslowski knocked down a three as the halftime buzzer sounded.
The Sabres maintained the momentum in the second half, using another Koslowski three to final take the lead 41-40 at the 13:50 mark in the second half. The junior guard was 2-for-5 from long distance for the game.
A Coenen jumper gave the Sabres their largest lead in regulation of 10 points at 56-46 with 8:22 left, but the Knights staged a comeback. They would tie the score at 62-all on a Galen Holzhueter layup with just 3:04 remaining.
Trailing 68-66 with under a minute to go, Binversie came to the rescue, tying the game with 38 seconds left and scoring just his eighth point of the game at the time.
He would go on to score 12 points in both overtimes combined, tallying six in each extra period. Binversie accounted for all but one point in the Sabres' 7-0 run to close out the first OT and force a second overtime session.
He then added six of the team's final eight points in a 14-2 run in the second OT. It concluded a furious run to the finish that saw Marian account for 21 of the game's final 23 points en route to the win.
Martin Luther put five players in double figures, led by Holzhueter's 17 points. The Sabres outscored the Knights by 12 points in the paint and turned 24 MLC miscues into 25 points in the win.
Marian will have the next 11 days off before taking part in the St. Norbert Holiday Classic, taking on the Green Knights to open the tournament, Dec. 29.

My first bread ventures were made in a bread machine. My next step was pulling the dough out of the machine, then hand-shaping and baking in the oven. Now I usually make the dough in my stand mixer.
I have found that the order of adding ingredients to a bread machine pan actually matters, beyond keeping the yeast dry for a delayed-start loaf. I load my mixer this way also.
What I'm baking, developing, researching, or thinking about cooking.

Bread: Kneading and Proofing
Kneading works up the gluten that is necessary for bread to rise. Proofing gets the yeast active, develops some flavor, and gives you large bubbles for the final loaf if you don't burst them all during shaping.

Ingredient: Gluten
The BalloonGluten is the "balloon" part of the Yeast Experiment. I wrote up a gluten experiment, but did not try it with the preschoolers: dough ball
Gluten is a protein in the flour that makes pizza dough stretchy, and biscuits too tough. Gluten can be the bread baker's friend, and the pastry chef's enemy.
Bread: Shaping and Second Rise
Working with Bread Dough
|Pizza dough after first rise, ready to shape.
|Pizza dough pulled into a round, without deflating all the bubbles.
Technique: Braided Bread
Play with your dough:Braiding bread adds a lot to the look of a loaf, and is surprisingly not that difficult to do with a good dough.
Bread: Topping and Baking
|Nicely browned Challah
Things to do after the second rise, just before baking.
- Add shine, and glue on toppings like seeds, by brushing the top of the loaf with egg wash:
- Beaten egg or egg white with 1 Tbsp of water
- Add a less-glossy sheen and lightly tack on a few seeds by brushing the top with milk.
New large baking stone
I finally found a replacement for the tiles I was using as a baking stone. My tiles fit the oven really well, but were thin and several have broken. FibraMent carries a nice variety of thick stones. I got one a week ago, and it's quite nice. I ordered it through Breadtopia, along with a dried sourdough starter, which I'll revive and try sometime.
It is the lower, white stone.

Bread: Improving a Conventional Oven
Do you wish you had a better oven? Want to make yours more like a brick oven? Put unglazed tiles or a pizza stone on the top and bottom racks of any oven and preheat for more than 20 minutes; bake directly on the bottom stone (cooking parchment makes it easier), and you have a brick oven. This does two things:

Undermountain by Eric Edstrom
My rating: 4 of 5 stars
Undermountain had me hooked from the first page. The story begins with the journey of six kids and one adult who were on a hike in the Canadian Rockies. Their group is being chased by an unknown creature, and they are rescued by…bigfoot. Undermountain tells the adventures of Danny, Breyona, Em, Wa, and Shiv as they discover that sometimes myths and legends are true, and sometimes they are scarier than they ever imagined.
I really enjoyed the author's writing style. The book was well written, descriptive, and imaginative, and it kept me captivated from page to page. The story itself was quite original.
The characters in this story are very well written and seem so realistic. Each one is a unique individual with his or her own personality. I love that each of them was given a background story. It made me as a reader feel like I knew each one personally, which made them easy to relate to and added to the emotion of the story. Even Bronson, who is the guy you love to hate, had his own story. I kind of felt sorry for him at the end…sort of. I really enjoyed having the different points of views. Sometimes it can be difficult to transition from one person to the next with so many changes, but the author did an excellent job with this.
I fell in love with the bigfeet. Their society was so complex with many different levels. The author did such a great job of individualizing each bigfoot so each had his own individual personality. I liked that the author made their societal problems part of the story as well. In the end, even though they felt they were above the humans, it turned out that their society was just as corrupt as the human's was.
The book was long, but it never got dull or tedious. Each page brought something new, making you want to keep reading. The world building in this story was amazing, and I love the complexity of the plot with both the bigfoot and the tangoga. From one page to the next, you never quite knew whom you should be trusting, and the minute you think you know what is going on, another curve is thrown in to keep you on your toes. I am definitely looking forward to more novels from Eric Edstrom!

Talib Kweli Calls Out Babygrande Records
By now everyone should all be well aware of industry rule #4080 — that is, of course, that record industry people are shady. And, that mantra applies to labels both big and small, it seems, following some more-recent transgressions. Talib Kweli took to Twitter today to bring some light to such behavior and to call out Babygrande Records — specifically, the label's owner — for some shady tactics and marketing that they've used with respect to Reflection Eternal (Talib Kweli and Hi-Tek)'s music.
"Chuck from [Babygrande Records] is a schmuck," tweeted Kweli in frustration about Chuck Wilson, the label's founder. "He puts out an album called Reflection Eternal 6 days after we drop [our album,] with old [Hi-Tek] tracks. Scumbag."
The album that Kweli is referencing, Babygrande Presents: The Reflection Eternal Collection, was released on May 25 — 11 days after the release of Reflection Eternal's official sophomore album, Revolutions Per Minute, according to Amazon.com. Babygrande's album contained no new material from the two artists, but instead featured 10 Hi-Tek-produced tracks that were released under their imprint. All but one featured Kweli, but none of the tracks were from an official Reflection Eternal release.
The close proximity of release dates — as Kweli's anger seems to imply — appears to be an underhanded tactic to confuse consumers into purchasing this album instead of the official album (they both appear under Amazon's list when searching for "Reflection Eternal"), or at the very least, an attempt to gain exposure on the coattails of Kweli and Tek's own marketing efforts.
The Reflection Eternal Collection seems to be released without knowledge or consent from any of the artists — which would imply that Babygrande holds rights to the original recordings.
"People like this guy Chuck are the reason why the business is fucked up," Kweli continued in his next tweet, "Please dont support snakes and make sure you cop the real."
Kweli isn't alone in his frustration toward the eight-year-old label.
Previous artists signed to the imprint have publicly expressed their resentment for the politics or business tactics of Babygrande. Most notably, Jedi Mind Tricks member Vinnie Paz was very vocal about his disdain for the label toward the end of his deal with them.
"I'm just waiting to get out of this slave contract with Babygrande," he said about the impending release of a new Army of the Pharaohs album (The Unholy Terror, 2010), in a 2009 interview with HouseOfHipHop.nl, a Netherlands-based hip-hop website. "They're just dirtbags and you can't rob people like that, man, motherfuckers get killed that way. But I owe them what I owe them and I'm a man of my word and I'm going to give them what they're owed."
Jean Grae, now signed to Kweli's Blacksmith label, also had her own share of issues with Babygrande.
Upon the announcement of "her" 2008 album, The Evil Jenius, with production two-some Blue Sky Black Death, it soon surfaced that Grae wasn't even aware of the album's creation. Not only was she not aware, but she wasn't getting paid for its release — not a cent.
According to her reports, the label had used recordings of Grae's that they owned from her record contract and placed them over BSBD beats to create the album. She had no knowledge of this before the album was promoted publicly.
And, this was the second time it happened.
In 2007, Babygrande released a Jean Grae album, titled The Orchestral Files, which Grae also contended was "unauthorized" — the label owned the material, and she had no control over the album's creation or release, she said.
It's unclear what sparked Kweli's current rant about the underhanded tactics of Babygrande records, considering that it's been nearly six months since the release of the two coinciding albums. But, it seems apparent that Kweli has plenty to be upset about.
He ended his rant with a final few choice words: "Fuck [Babygrande]. I dont even say that in public usually, but fuck them and everybody who got anything to do with them," he tweeted.
"Thanks, I'm done."

THE ARROGANCE OF IGNORANCE: Annest Namata is a serial promiscuous cheat and she will NEVER change. She thinks she can use sex to get anything and maintain a relationship while she is sleeping around with every Tom, Dick and Harry and all the while stealing your money and material things. BUT ALL THE WHILE SHE WILL ACT AND PRETEND SHE IS TRUSTWORTHY WITH MORALS. DO NOT FALL FOR HER PRETENCE AND LIES.
Though Annest plays the innocent victim and acts religious, she lives a double life as in habitual cheating and then testing her ability to make up believable lies. She does not feel bad when her actions hurt you due to her total luck of empathy, remorse and her selfishness and not bad enough to quit lying, cheating and deceiving.
The people she hangs out with are predominantly male. She justifies this by claiming that her would be female friends are jealous of her because she is beautiful. #Delusional! There are far much better real naturally beautiful women than she will ever be.
She keeps old boyfriends(!) and claims they are her friends/Business partners. What business, you should ask yourself. She may still be listening to their problems. She likes being with men and needs their attention. Long after she says an old romance is over, they still have secret their intimate moments. She doesn't consider this cheating because in her deranged delusional selfish mind, this is just a friend/Business partner as she introduces them to her friends and colleagues.
Obviously her role model(s) did not honour fidelity. She may have even been put in a place where she had to lie for them to cover up what they were doing as she was growing up. Her upbringing is full of immorality. This has led her to believe that there is actually nothing wrong with cheating, being promiscuous and denying it whilst using religion as a cover for her deceit.
If she has cheated on all the others in all her previous relationships, used them and stolen from them, what makes you think she will not cheat on you, sleep around, use you and steal from you? What makes you think she will stop being promiscuous today? Are you any different? Are you so special? So you may think.
To Annest Namata, you are a Money and Materialistic object. She is after your wallet, material possessions and ATM.
She thinks she is more desirable than all women because she has many men in love with her as she claims due to her sleeping around. She is constantly craving male attention for material gain and money. That goes to explain why she said to me when I questioned the male attention and information getting to me; "I cannot stop men from loving me"; "Many men want me because I am beautiful". She told her friends "I have many boys and men who want me because I am beautiful". What commitment can you have from her with that kind of cheap thinking/attitude? She seems to think she is very divine but contradicts herself by presenting herself like an object.
She is masterful at choosing guys, making them needy and making each one feel and believe he is the one she loves in a monogamous relationship. Her lack of self-esteem and emotional survival are based on having multiple men declare their unconditional love whilst she is proclaiming religious intentions to those who don't know her ways. She thinks of herself as a maverick and a rule breaker, and having only one boyfriend is for "other" people. Detached yet emotionally demanding, she checks in with each guy she is having an affair with often and on a regular basis. Thus her regular sexting, phone sex and the several email accounts that she has. She uses different email addresses for the different men until she makes a mistake.
Annest Namata engages in calculated seduction. While she is trying to hook you, she is extremely attentive. She will shower you with deceitful flattery and what appears to be affection whilst playing the religious pretence card. But she has an agenda. You have something she wants. She will keep pouring it on until she convinces you that she is genuine, trustworthy and honest. Do not believe her seductive lies at all unless you want to be one of her victims.
If you fall for her total lack of fleshly restraint, good luck to you for you will be sharing her with many other men and will be manipulated and used with great disappointment in the end. After all, she said to me, "how can I stop men from loving me?" That's a statement of a promiscuous woman with no morals. So make an informed choice.
Annest Namata operates from her own "Sociopathic, selfish evil Gold Digging playbook". She ALWAYS exhibits the following Serial Cheating behaviours:-
- Enormous deceitful Ego: She acts like the smartest, most knowledgeable, richest or most successful and she may tell you about her supposed successes. They are all lies.
- Overly Attentive: Initially, she will call, skype, text, message and e-mail constantly. She will resent the time you spend with your family and friends and turn it/use it against you. That's all in order to trap you. Beware.
- **Her Jekyll and Hyde Personality: After a while, one minute she will pretend to love you; the next minute she will hate you. This is proof she is guilty of something i.e. she is cheating on you. She will be religious one minute and be evil the next. Her personality is very contradictory. Her evil personality changes like a flipping switch. Even her pose for photographs is all deceitful giving an impression of a polite nice person when she is NOT at all. Her body language(constantly flaunting herself), the way she dresses and her walk (Seductive SLUT WALK) give you the answer – PROMISCUOUS!
- Lies and Gaps in her stories: When you ask her questions, the answers are vague or she will claim she doesn't want to be reminded of the past. She is never straight forward. She tells contradictory and outrageous lies. She lies when she would be better telling the truth.
- Blame Game: Nothing is ever her fault. According to her, she is never wrong and claims she never does anyone wrong. Yet she does it all the time. She will always have an excuse. She claims that someone always causes her problems/issues.
- Intentional eye contact: I call it a predatory stare. If you get a chill down your spine when she looks at you, pay attention, it is not a genuine stare/look. Her look is meant to seduce you deceitfully because she wants to get something from you. I know someone she has known for a couple of years but never looks at the person in the eye.
- Moves fast: She will quickly proclaim that you are her true love and soul mate or family. She wants to move in together or get married quickly and have a child(ren), twins. She will quickly refer to you as her husband. Get to know that she wants something from you – Material things and money as always.(Gold Digger).
- Pity Play: She will try hard to appeal to your sympathy. She wants you to feel sorry for her upbringing/childhood, her lies about the her childhood, her Ex's, or financial setbacks, etc. It is all meant to trap you. Do not believe her manipulative lies.
- She is very Vain: She wants something you have and she can get from you i.e. she will use you. She will try her best to attract your attention by what she does and how she does it plus how she dresses, flaunting her body parts, constantly admiring herself in the mirrors(vain), exaggerating her slutty walk, wearing your name initials on her necklaces,- Don't be fooled. They are all her promiscuous tricks to lure you to make you believe she loves.
- Very Evasive: She is always very secretive and evasive about everything she does but expects you to trust her and be transparent thus creating mutual suspicion and hostility. But she will turn the tables against you and say you are possessive and not down to earth.
- She will twist every single bit of your words to better fit her version of the story and communicate that "story" with lots of passion to her so called "friends" and "family" like it is true.
She trumpets all her little delusional achievements and possessions even when she is not asked. That's why she has very little respect from those who know her well except for those who believe her lies and do not know the real Annest Namata but think they do.
She has no morals and is very ill mannered. Her actions and all that she did behind my back whilst I was loving her genuinely, will come back one day to bite her! Karma is the best answer and has no deadline. It is not worth descending to her cheap vindictive level.
Annest Namata has an attitude that demonstrates "the world revolves around me" and "you need to cater to my ideals, my promiscuity, ignorant opinions, immoral vile thoughts, arrogance and feelings."
All actions have consequences. Some people like Annest have the view "what my partner doesn't see and doesn't know won't hurt him" like she did in my case. But even if you get away with it now, it will catch up with you at some point. What goes around comes around despite Annest Namata thinking she is very special. Special for being a promiscuous thief?
I will never let Annest Namata's deceit, promiscuity, ignorance, evil arrogance, hate, drama or negativity stop me from being the best person I can be.
I loved and trusted her more than she ever deserved. Her evil deceitful mannerisms will come back to haunt her two-fold. It's a basic law of karma.
This is NOT Character Assassination. This is real life Character Revelation.

Sutton United manager Paul Doswell has re-signed attacking midfielder Harry Beautyman from League Two side Stevenage for an undisclosed fee.
With the U's looking to build on their excellent first half to their Vanarama National League campaign, Doswell swooped to claim the signature of the 25-year-old who was a popular member of the squad during his first stint at Gander Green Lane.
Beautyman was given a chance to kick-start his career with Sutton back in 2011 having been released by Leyton Orient.
He went on to play more than 100 games in two years for the U's and represented England C before making the step up to the National League with Welling United.
Beautyman then went on to play in the Football League for Peterborough United and Northampton Town before joining Stevenage last year.
"I've been tracking Harry's progress and knew he was available, Doswell told the club's website.
"What was important was that we were the club he wanted to join, and we're grateful to Stevenage for their co-operation with the move.
"He's signed a two and a half year deal, and the thought of seeing him line up alongside our present midfield is an exciting one."
Sutton have also announced the signing of Wigan Athletic goalkeeper Owen Evans on a 28-day loan following an injury to Jamie Butler in the New Year's Day draw with Boreham Wood.
Butler has been outstanding for Sutton this term having himself been thrown into the deep end after a pre-season injury to United's usual shot-stopper Ross Worner.
But Butler suffered a knee injury late in Monday's game forcing Doswell to use his contacts to secure a replacement.
"Jamie's on crutches at the moment and will go for a scan this week, when we will find out more," said the Sutton boss.
"He's been fantastic for us so far but we expect him to be out for the next couple of weeks, so we're grateful to Paul Cook at Wigan for helping us again.
"We are looking at one or two things in the [transfer] window. We feel we've got a great chance to push on. It's exciting times for the football club."
Welsh U21 goalkeeper Evans is the second Wigan player to sign for the U's in less than a week with defender Terell Thomas also joining the club on a month's loan in time to make his debut at Macclesfield.
Versatile midfielder Nicky Bailey, an integral part of Doswell's plans, also suffered a calf strain on Monday as the punishing Christmas schedule took its toll.
Meanwhile, United have loaned winger Ross Stearn back to Vanarama National South side Bath City for a month to get some game time.
United make the 600-mile round trip to face 17th-place Gateshead this Saturday, kick-off 3pm.

Recent spike in anti-gay crime shows, despite political gains, LGBT faces ongoing challenges
Thousands of New Yorkers marched through the streets of Greenwich Village Monday—the same streets that saw the landmark gay rights "Stonewall Riots" in 1969—to protest the recent shooting of a gay man and draw attention to the "culture of hate" which has fueled the recent increase in targeted violence.
Openly-gay Mark Carson, 32, was shot in the head Friday evening in the New York neighborhood while his attacker allegedly taunted him with homophobic slurs. He later died in a hospital.
"We're here! We're queer!" and "Homophobia's got to go!" was chanted as protesters marched through the Village. The demonstration culminated with a rally at the site where Carson was killed, on the corner of 6th Avenue and 8th Street, where a vigil of flowers and candles continued to grow throughout the day.
City residents and gay rights advocates were joined by Christine Quinn, mayoral candidate and the city's first openly gay City Council speaker, and Edie Windsor, who is currently fighting a case before the Supreme Court over the rights of gay couples.
"It's not enough to just hold the individuals that perpetrate violence accountable, we have to hold every person who contributes to this harmful culture accountable." -Sharon Stapel, Executive Director of NYC's Anti-Violence Project (AVP)
The marchers are hoping to bring attention to the recent increase in crimes against the LGBT (Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual, Transgender) community, particularly in New York City, despite gains made in the political arena.
In New York City alone, there have 22 incidents of gay violence so far this year, up from 13 during the same period last year.
"As we make progress across this country toward LGBTQ equality, we are seeing a reactionary backlash of hatred," said Sharon Stapel, Executive Director of New York City's Anti-Violence Project (AVP).
According to Stapel, the rate of these targeted incidents of violence continues to rise. She writes:
From 2010 to 2011, we saw a 13% increase of reports of this violence in New York City, which followed an 11% increase from the year before. In 2011, our National Coalition (NCAVP) reported the highest number of LGBTQ bias-related homicides in its 15 year history.
"That backlash—especially when it comes in the form of hate speech say from community leaders who people look up to and respect—it really does encourage an anti-LGBT sentiment in the world and it really says to people that its okay to hate gay people," Stapel told the New York Times.
"A lot of people thought when (same-sex) marriage laws passed in this state that everything would automatically get better, but changing people minds takes longer," added Marissa Higgins, who wed her wife Danielle in February. "Until then, unfortunately there is going to be violence."
In recent weeks, several US states including Delaware, Minnesota and Rhode Island passed laws legalizing same-sex marriage, bringing the total to 12 states and Washington DC, that now allow the practice. New York approved gay marriage in 2011.
In a separate incident Monday evening, another openly gay male was attacked while leaving work in New York's East Village. Reportedly, the assailant was yelling homophobic slurs as he was kicking and beating the victim.
"Shock, outrage, anger sums up how I am feeling today as one of my very good friends was gay bashed last night," wrote the victim's friend on his blog. "I am thankful it was not worse as NYC's hate crime spree continues."
According to the Associated Press, police pledged Monday to increase their presence in the Village through the end of June, which is Gay Pride month, and public schools are being asked to hold assemblies or other discussions of hate crimes and bullying before summer break.
Also, on May 24th, the AVP is launching a Community Safety Night (pdf) initiative during which they will fan out to those neighborhoods most affected by anti-LGBTQ hate violence to talk to people about safety.
"We need to make clear the connection between anti-LGBTQ laws, hate speech and violence," Stapel continues. "We need to make the ridicule, dismissal and derision of LGBTQ people socially unacceptable, and insist that LGBTQ people are recognized as equal members of our society. It's not enough to just hold the individuals that perpetrate violence accountable, we have to hold every person who contributes to this harmful culture accountable."

OK, so one of the best perks of teaching overseas is that we have the opportunity to visit places that we may have otherwise not had, Bali, for example, is only a 6 hour flight from Bangladesh, so there you go! It is truly a magical place, so lush and green, just amazing. The Balinese people are very chill and hospitable- Bali is now one of my favorite places on earth!
For the first three days, we rented a villa in Ubud which is the cultural hub of Bali. My son, Payton, and I tried our hands at batik painting, pretty tricky! This is an ancient Balinese art form where hot wax is added to fabric, then died We got lots of one-on-one attention from this batik artist:
Voila! Our finished products! The whole process took about two hours, and I enjoyed every minute of it. Our teacher and his two assistants had LOTS of patience! :)
While in Ubud, we also visited a place where they make special "Luwak" coffee. Now this is pretty interesting!....This is a luwak:
It's a nocturnal mammal native to Bali. It kind of looks like a ferret. So... the luwak eats whole berries which have a bean inside. The berry is digested and the bean comes out the other end (I think you know what I mean!)- as seen at the right in the picture, the beans are light colored. The beans are then washed, roasted and ground into coffee. The coffee has a strong, but not very bitter taste.
Because of the long process involving the luwak, the coffee is special to Bali and pretty expensive if it's offered elsewhere, say $50 a cup. Hmm...make Starbucks look like a bargain!
We also visited the Bali Zoo which was a bit of a drive outside of Ubud and saw some pretty amazing animals...
...like this peacock that I thought was gonna attack me! Luckily I snapped a quick pic and kept movin'!
This here is Jack, a 32 year old orangutan. He was pretty funny- he holds his hand out because he's used to people throwing him bananas which he peels then eats whole! If you look closely, there's one sticking out of his mouth!
Number four is reserved for the delicious tropical fruit I tried, some for the first time ever!
After visiting Ubud, we've moved on to Candidassa in East Bali, a relatively quiet little seaside town. Time to relax! We are at a lovely small resort, Aquaria. I'll leave you with my view from my room:
I hope you are, or soon-to-be, enjoying a WONDERFUL winter break!!!! Merry Christmas and happy holidays!!!
Thanks for stopping by :)

SEOUL-Samsung Display Co. and LG Display Co. (LPL) have agreed to end courtroom battles over display-technology patents and explore cooperation, highlighting competitive pressures in the market for next-generation displays.
South Korea's top two panel makers have traded lawsuits over the past year as they raced against each other to bring the latest display technologies to market. Samsung Display supplies screens for Samsung Electronics Co.'s (005930.SE) Galaxy smartphones, tablet computers and televisions, while LG Display makes screens for Apple Inc.'s iPhones and iPads, as well as LG Electronics Inc.'s (066570.SE) smartphones. The two rivals also have released expensive, curved OLED displays used in television sets.
Samsung Display said in a statement it has "come to an agreement with LG Display to focus on finding ways to cooperate on patent matters though discussions, and to immediately drop lawsuits over liquid-crystal displays and next-generation organic light-emitting-diode display patents."
LG Display, in a separate statement,mobi to pdf echoed Samsung's commitment to cooperation.
Displays have become an important feature of tablets, smartphones and an emerging breed of wearable gadgets. Producing super-slim screens with sharper resolution for phones like the Galaxy S4 and the LG G2 is crucial for LG Display and Samsung Display, and both are targeting the adoption of plastic or flexible OLED screens for mobile devices by smartphone makers.
One of the rivals' disputes involved LCD patents. Samsung Display had alleged in December that LG Display breached seven of its patents, and LG Display responded by seeking to ban sales of Samsung's Galaxy Note 10.1 tablet.
In February, however, the companies agreed that their legal dispute was "exhausting" and that their energy should be directed toward keeping a competitive edge over foreign rivals, responding to government efforts to mitigate the conflict. Both companies compete with Japan Display Inc. and Chinese panel makers, which are gaining ground in the lower-end segment.

*** (out of four)
For years, Ari Graynor ("Nick and Norah's Infinite Playlist," "The Sitter") has proven why she deserves far more than mediocre movies which push her considerable lovability—even when playing a drunken mess—to the fringes.
At last, the actress gets the shot at stardom she deserves. In both moments of real drama and drama exaggerated for comic effect, Graynor and Lauren Anne Miller (Seth Rogen's wife, who co-wrote the script) lend "For a Good Time, Call" tons of charm, even when the story struggles to spread its wings.
Graynor plays Katie, a boisterous blonde in danger of losing her formerly rent-controlled New York apartment. It once belonged to her Bubbe; now it has a stripper pole. Enter conservative Lauren (Miller), who needs new accommodations after her boyfriend (James Wolk) says, "We are boring," and takes off to Italy for six months. Katie and Lauren hate each other, a result of a college party-related snafu 10 years ago. Yet their mutual friend (a funny, flamboyant Justin Long) sees an opportunity to reconnect two women who can't afford to live alone and might blend better than either one of them realizes.
Like so many young people now and always, financial strains cause employment compromises for Lauren, who's soon helping Katie run her part-time phone sex gig as an independent operation. She spots a business opportunity; Katie has obviously never thought about the inefficiency of devoting most of her earnings to a parent company and a cell phone company.
"For a Good Time, Call" may offer more dirty talk and sex toys than most of the year's big-screen movies combined, but it genuinely works as a story of friendship between two women whose defenses break down in the face of unexpected common ground.
Fun and funny, raunchy and and sweet, "Call" gets a lot of mileage from its phone sex-caller cameos (won't ruin those) while maintaining a giggly but non-judgmental attitude toward its subject matter. The movie embraces female sexuality while recognizing stigmas and hang-ups imposed by society and family members. Unfortunately, Katie's relationship with a former client (Mark Webber) unfolds too simply. The movie's pursuit of cuteness sometimes feels childish or unenlightened in terms of sexual impulses and the perspectives and experiences of people in a world teeming with pornography. (So I've heard.)
A lot of laughs will get a movie out of a straightforward storytelling rut, though, as will the chemistry between actresses who get the rare chance to play characters who aren't obsessed with finding a guy. Their jobs may or may not be temporary, but together they're building a bond with a shot at permanence.

From time to time we do some stupid things in our Real Lives and our Second Lives. I did something really stupid and thoughtless in SL. An old acquaintance approached me for help on a project. I told that person I was unable to help directly, but pointed her to someone who may be able to help. Had I left it at there all would be golden, but I went over to where the project was and poked around. A few days later I saw a blog posting about it that was fairly critical of it. Like a dummy I posted a comment agreeing with some of the points and mentioning that I was approached for help. Stupid stupid stupid!
Although this was not a highly trafficked site my comment was noticed and traced back to my acquaintance. They caught a lot of grief. I was such an ass for my actions. Although this person never said it was hush hush, I simply did not think. My thoughtlessness has cost them and there is nothing I can do to take it back or make them whole again.
To my ex-friend I want to offer my sincerest apologies. There is no excuse for my actions and I regret them deeply. If I could make up for my actions I would gladly do it. I am so sorry and I do not blame you if can't forgive me.

A couple of days back a good friend of mine was lured into an online scam. The perpetrator assumed a Hotmail support staff and email her to send information (such as her password) as a respond back to a "security measure" taken by Hotmail for it's users. Anyway, i've helped her done some initial "first aid" but more importantly, here are some top 10 online tips
Top 10 Online Tips
- No credible online company will ask for your password! Period. If they do, just trash it.
- No credible application developer will email you an executable (They may put a link up but look at tip no 3)
- If there's a link to download and apply a certain fix/patch, do a search and see if its legitimate first before applying. Most credible sources such as the principle's website would be on the first few hits in your search. Go to that link, read what's it all about. Consult someone credible (yes you can ask me, i would be happy to help)
- You have the right to ask and question anything you receive from a source seemingly legitimate if they are asking for personal information (and it's your right not to disclose)
- If you're in doubt, ask!, search!, be sure!. There's no stupid question, just stupid assumptions
- When transacting anything with money online, DO NOT DO IT OVER A PUBLIC WiFi. There's too many reasons why but i wont.state them here. Search that if you are interested. You might end up reading some stuff on this blog :P
- Passwords are the weakest form of security. Use long passwords (complex short ones are easier to guess than long non-complex ones). I am not a big fan of changing passwords too frequently cause the flipside of that is that you will start to forget those new passwords you created and start using post-it-notes as reminders and start pasting up on your walls/monitors
- HTTPS (secure HTTP) does not necessary mean its secure. You should still verify the certificate (which are used to make that HTTP > HTTPs) and URL. Most browsers will complain if the basic criteria is not met like related URL (friendly name), validity etc... Again, if in doubt, see item 5
- Read stuff. There's a lot of credible website that give users basic and clear information on what's the latest in the world of security. I recommend reading stuff from CNET, Microsoft's Security Website, and the one i like most is http://www.us-cert.gov/current/
- Use basic PC level protection like Antivirus (I use kaspersky and love it), enable a firewall (Windows Firewall is a good start) and keep your machine up to date (using Microsoft OS, just go to http://update.microsoft.com).
Ok, lets say you do get scammed into something and there's risk of potential sensitive information leak. Do the following;
- Ask for help from an IT expert in house or write to me if i can help, i will (real world experts, not the ones from Lowyat forum etc)
- Lodge a police report (state the seriousness of the case)
- Write an email to the corresponding company stating your case. Give them as much information as possible
- Inform any friends that may be affected, of possible fraud attempts (e.g. if your email is hijacked/stolen password, someone may impersonate you and ask for money because you're apparently stranded in the Bahamas, "they" stole your baggage and you need money to travel home and will pay back once you reached back home)
- Learn from the lesson! Read the tips above!

The Arts Council is the lead development agency for the arts in Northern Ireland. The organisation believes that that art has the ability to reach across boundaries, inspiring, teaching and bringing people together. The Arts Council believes in placing art at the heart because art makes a difference.
It is the main support for artists and arts organisations, offering a broad range of funding opportunities through our Exchequer and National Lottery funds. From theatre and literature to art in the community, the Arts Council works in partnership with hundreds of artists, arts organisations and venues to deliver great art to more people every year.
Arts Council support enables creative people and organisations to deliver projects which contribute to the region's flourishing arts and cultural sector. As a result of National Lottery funding and ACNI's work there is now a purpose-built arts venues within 20 miles of every citizen in Northern Ireland, ensuring that arts facilities are within reach of everyone.
The Arts Council has made a substantial investment to create new opportunities for disabled people to be involved in the arts on their own terms. Its approach is based on the Social Model of disability and we place our emphasis on tackling barriers to equality.
Arts & Health refers mainly to arts activities that take place within the healthcare environment, providing new access and participation opportunities for artists, patients, health service staff and visitors. Any involvement in the arts has a positive effect on health. For example, the 'Dreams' project at the Mater Hospital has shown that contact with the arts whilst in hospital can make people more relaxed, relieve stress and worries, and relieve pain and symptoms. One of the lead organisations is ArtsCare, which currently has 20 artists in residence and seven Clown Doctors working in health venues throughout Northern Ireland.
The Arts Council through its fundinging will continue to acitively foster the expression of cultural pluralism, build dialogues and promote mutual understanding, through interchanges within and between communities and their cultures.
The Arts Council is one of the key funders of community arts in Northern Ireland. Community Arts promote collective creative processes which enhance access and participation and strengthen the community's sense of authorship and ownership. They provide opportunities for communities and individuals to develop skills as artists, and for artists to explore ways of transferring those skills.

My stuff:
Win XP Pro SP2
Xampp (newest) with Control Panel vs 2.1, PHP vs 5
eGroupware 1.0.0.009
Installing was a job but now everything is working fine.
I only have a very nasty problem. After starting eGroupware, sometimes, unpredictable, Apache crashes: Apache HTTP Server has encountered a problem and needs to close. Sorry...bla bla bla.
The problem seems to be the PHP-file: php5ts.dll
Who helps?
Thanks a lot.
