Comparison of Technical and Economic Parameters of Cutting of Solid Wood Panels with Numerically-Controlled and Traditional Woodworking Machines
Pages : 1447-1451
Download PDF
The technology of wood mechanical processing has undergone positive changes, especially during the last two decades, achieving a rapid development through the application of advanced technologies. Numerically-controlled technology (CNC) has significantly improved technical and economic parameters, which has led to increased competitiveness of those companies that have installed this technology. The focus of this paper lies in the study of technical and economic parameters in cutting solid wood plates, used for the production of window frames, with CNC panel saw machines and with traditional saw-blade machines. The same cutting tool is used, cutting disc and pre-cutting disc, with the same geometry of the saw-blades cutting teeth for both machines. The study takes into account the cutting time of the constructive parts of the window frame, measured with the software of a CNC machine, and through a chronometer at the saw-disc machine. On the other side the costs of work force required for the operation are calculated. The results of the measurements and calculations reveal a clear advantage of the CNC saw-disc machines over the traditional saw-disc machines, in terms of operations times, enabling an increase in productivity and quality of the processing.

The issue of offering incentives to production companies to film in North Carolina has been headline news the last few weeks. Although our region would likely be the most impacted area in the state, dozens of counties will feel the effect if the incentives end.
Industry professionals have clearly stated that if the incentives go away, so will many movies, TV series and commercials. Attracting productions is competitive between states that vie for this economic development. Other states offer generous incentives—more generous than what North Carolina currently offers—to try to lure business their way. We need a reasonably level playing field if we are going to compete.
Despite our superior film studio and crew base, before the incentives were put in place we routinely lost productions to other states. There are many places that are more than happy to provide them that incentive due to the jobs and economic impact that accompany productions. We've been monitoring media in Georgia the last couple weeks—which is also a large film location—and they are excited by the prospect that North Carolina is going to do-away with the incentives we currently offer.
When the incentives were bolstered three years ago, production exploded in North Carolina, including massive movies like Iron Man III that made huge investments in local businesses. It's important to reiterate that it's not just the film crews that benefit by the productions being here, although the 1,700 of them in New Hanover County alone would certainly be more than enough reason to protect this sector. If freelance film workers were employed by a single business, it would fall well within the Top 5 list of largest private sector employers in New Hanover County.
The productions purchase a great deal of goods and services from our local businesses, making their impact much greater than simply the workers. Just a few examples to illustrate this:
• movie security contracts provided $234,000 in off-duty pay to City of Wilmington police officers and New Hanover County deputies during the last two years;
• one recent production spent $836,000 on site rentals (rental of property for filming, parking and catering);
• a production spent $24 million with 544 different local vendors;
• during 2012, one local hotel earned approximately $1.4 million from movie business, generating $84,000 in local accommodations taxes; and
• a local car rental company earned approximately $1.3 million from movie business during one production.
In total in the last three years, productions have spent more than $500 million in the region, primarily in New Hanover County. Losing this economic impact and many of the 1,700 film industry jobs would be another severe blow to our area economy that has already been hit harder by the recession than other parts of the state and has been slower to recover.
The Wilmington Chamber of Commerce has been working with the Wilmington Regional Film Commission and our elected officials to show the members of the General Assembly the impact that this business has so that they clearly understand the importance of the film incentive program. Hopefully those efforts won't go unnoticed.

New Zealander Morton Coutts was only 15-years-old when he first took over the family brewing business after the First World War and by the 1960s had revolutionised the ancient art of beer brewing.
Beer has been brewed for about 6000 years, since the time of the ancient Egyptians. The Egyptians in turn taught the Romans how to brew and the Romans taught the rest of Europe. Now beer is drunk all over the world. Yet it was a New Zealander working for Dominion Breweries in the 1950s who discovered a new way to brew which sped up the process by as much as 15 weeks to 18 hours.
Morton Coutts had brewing in his blood. His grandfather, Frederick Joseph Khutze, brewed beer for the goldminers in Otago last century before moving to Palmerston North to start his own brewery in 1900.
His son, William Joseph Khutze inherited the business and shifted it to Taihape to supply beer to the men working in timber milling and bush clearing in the area.
He changed the family name during World War One to the more English and less German sounding Coutts. William Coutts became sick and was permanently disabled during the worldwide flu epidemic in 1918 and so his son Morton, aged 15, took over the business.
Morton Coutts came up with what is now known as the continuous fermentation process for brewing beer. During the continuous brewing process raw materials are added to one end of the system and beer is continuously withdrawn from the other. The standard system for brewing beer has ingredients put in together and then after a period of time the brewed beer is removed and bottled altogether and at the same time.
To understand how the continuous fermentation system works it is first necessary to understand how beer is usually brewed. The brewing process begins with soaking barley in water, draining it and allowing it to sprout, or germinate. As soon as the first signs of roots appear the germination is stopped by heating.
These sprouted barley seeds are called the malt, which is then crushed without destroying the husks. It is mixed in hot water and allowed to settle.
The liquid, which now has the desired goodness from the malt, is separated from the ground mash. This liquid is called the 'wort' to which hops are added for flavour and then boiled.
It is next cooled and yeast is added which begins to grow and reproduce until there is five times as much yeast as was put in initially. The fermentation process, which produces the alcohol, then begins. This carries on for a number of days and then the beer is aged for between three weeks and three months before being bottled.
In the 1930s Mr Coutts began investigations into the nature of yeast which is the key ingredient in any brewing. Yeast is a mould found naturally on plants throughout the world. Mr Coutts had a realisation "that yeast could be properly controlled if you looked on it as a human being with a brain.
It has so many enzyme mechanisms to call upon to react to whatever is necessary for its survival. Instead of looking on the final product I always took notice of the yeast as an organism that produced whatever you ended up with."
In order to develop a continuous brewing process Mr Coutts first developed what he called the wort stabilisation process. After boiling the wort he cooled it to 0 oC for 48 hours which allowed more of the sediment to settle and leave a much clearer and more consistent wort. The next important step was to separate the fermentation stages. He had one stage where the yeast grew and another where the fermentation began. In each stage the yeast was encouraged to either grow or produce alcohol.
He believed this was what the yeast wanted to do. Continuous fermentation is the way yeast has always grown for millions of years. By splitting the fermentation into two stages Mr Coutts could create a continuous flow between them.
The wort was continually added to the yeast production stage, which in turn continually and steadily flowed into the alcohol production stage, which produced a steady flow of beer.
Control over the yeast was achieved by controlling the amount of oxygen the yeast cells were subjected to. The world's first exclusively continuous fermenting brewery began brewing at Palmerston North in 1957. There were of course those who doubted that continuous beer fermentation would produce good beer but these were largely silenced when a beer made with the process won the 1968 Commonwealth Beers Championship Cup.
There are a number of reasons why New Zealand was the first place to develop continuous brewing. At the same time as Morton Coutts came up with his continuous brewing process Dominion Breweries decided their breweries needed extensive rebuilding and so used the new process in their new and upgraded breweries.
New stainless steel brewing vessels allowed for greater cleanliness during the brewing process, which is vital for continuous brewing, and government excise laws on alcohol production were such that continuous brewing was liable for less taxation.
Morton Coutts' thoughtful and innovative approach to brewing gave New Zealand brewers an extra advantage and is perhaps one reason why we drink the fourth most amount of beer per head of population in the world.

Recently I have become the ''go to''guy for a couple of different people that are selling essential oils/apothecary items.
This entails designing /making boxes/displays and the like.. The upside is it lets me be creative and do pretty well what I want. the downside is repetition,repetition,repetition…These displays are a fair example of the repetition, all told 136 slots routed, 136 cedar dividers sanded….....you get the idea….
For this project the only thing that was a bit tricky was designing the faces to be removed (4th pic) ended up just using a couple of pocket hole screws… other than that it was pretty straight forward.
The logo was lasered in by someone else but hopefully in the new year I will have a 60"x36" CNC in the back of the shop.
Materials are W. red cedar and pine. dimensions 14" wide, 21"tall(for the large one) 12" tall (for small), 11"& 8"for depth.
Thanks for looking

|high viral count, CD4 count is fine. what to do?
Apr 10, 2012
I tested positive on 26 March and had my further test done on 4 April. My CD4 count is 564 and my VL is 14228. What can I do to get the viral load down?
Response from Dr. Young
Hello and thanks for posting.
Other than taking HIV medications, there's not much one does to lower HIV viral load. Increasingly US treatment guidelines are recommending treatment for most individuals who are positive, this is particularly true for persons who are older, or have other health issues.
To clarify your labs, at 14,000, you don't have a high viral load (we typically define high as over 100,000). It's actually on the low side of average.
Typically, with a CD4 count over 500, I'm patient with starting meds, particularly with low to average viral loads. This doesn't mean ignore the situation, but rather to use this time to learn about your virus, your health and your treatment options. A second set of labs in a few months time will help forecast your health trajectory.
I hope that helps, BY
Please help

Over the weekend I presented the Densho Project at the Society of American Archivists Conference in San Francisco. This was the first time I attended this annual gathering and listened with interest as archivists from around the country talked about the importance of archives in a democracy. If done well and made accessible to the citizenry, archives provide the details that bring transparency and accountability to the decision making process. With this insight I chuckled out loud as the room of well behaved, polite archivists transformed before my eyes into courageous protectors of our democracy, risking careers to make more documents available.
I then returned to Seattle and felt my stomach drop as I watched TV as Alaskan Governor Sarah Palin mocked our civil rights when she attacked Senator Obama by saying,
"Al Qaeda terrorists still plot to inflict catastrophic harm on America," Dramatic pause… "He's worried that someone won't read them their rights."
This caused a roar of laughter and approval from the crowd while I sat quietly watching TV and wondering what happened to our principle that people suspected of wrongdoing have a right to defend themselves against the charges. Similar charges were made against 120,000 Japanese Americans incarcerated over 65 years ago – they were not given their rights, there were no trials, and none of them were guilty.

Some of the pictures we're not even sure where they were taken but other pictures have an almost lomo like result! :)
This year I couldn't find the right cassette for my Polaroid project, I ended up with a black & white cassette (just 100 ASA...).
I can tell you that just doesn't do the trick for me. One big greyish blur, that's what I got & that's just not enough for the huge amount of money that cassette cost me.
So I guess next year I will get myself a cheap disposable camera as well!
Have a wonderful weekend!

A Collection of Beatles Oldies (subtitled But Goldies!) is a compilation album featuring a selection of songs by The Beatles recorded between 1963 and 1966. The album was released in the United Kingdom and Australia in both mono (catalogue number PMC 7016) and stereo (PCS 7016). It also saw a release in Mexico, Germany, Czechoslovakia and Spain.
The release of this album was the result of EMI not having any new material by the Beatles for the 1966 Christmas season in the manner of the previous three years.
The sole new track, a cover of Larry Williams' "Bad Boy", had not yet been released at all in the UK, even though it was released in the United States on the Capitol album Beatles VI in June 1965, only a month after the group recorded it.
All songs written by John Lennon and Paul McCartney except where noted.
A Collection may refer to:
A Collection is a compilation album by Anne Briggs, released by Topic Records in 1999.
The recordings are drawn from The Iron Muse (1963), Edinburgh Folk Festival (1963), Edinburgh Folk Festival Vol. 2 (1964), The Hazards of Love (1964), The Bird In The Bush (Traditional Erotic Songs) (1966) and Anne Briggs (1971)
Source: Amazon
A Collection is a six compact disc box set The Doors, released by Elektra and Rhino on July 5, 2011.
This collection packages the complete anthology of The Doors albums before Jim Morrison's death in 1971. It features the 40th anniversary versions of the tracks, remastered by Bruce Botnick, and original artwork in replicated paper sleeves. The bonus tracks that are included in the individual 40th anniversary versions are not included in this boxset.
The albums are placed in chronological order.

I've got a photograph,
I took a picture of you.
I took your picture in front of my favourite view.
You play the part so well,
You look so sure and free.
No one could ever tell
that you belong to me
And 'cos you lie so well,
I've got to pin you down.
Under lock and key,
So you will always be in my..
In my..
My collection.
If you can't speak, you can't lie.
If you can't run, you can't hide.
I know a place you can't die,
So no one lives inside..
My collection.
I want to capture you.
I want to immortalise,
The way you play with your hair,
The way you flash your eyes.
I taste the air you breath.
I taste the food you eat.
I keep your nails and hair,
And some of the clothes you wear.
If you can't speak, you can't lie.
If you can't run, you can't hide.
And if you're dead, you can't die,
So no one lives inside..
My collection.
I've got some photographs,
I'd like to show them to you.
Though you don't know the girls,
You'll recognise the view.

Linking eDir Drivers in Designer
Novell Cool Solutions: Tip
Digg This -
Slashdot This
Posted: 25 Oct 2006
A Forum reader recently asked:
"If I make a new project, drag two ID vaults on to it, and drag an eDir to eDir driver in to connect them, the vaults are shown as connected by this driver. But if I make a new project, and import two ID vaults in to it that are connected by eDir drivers, they don't show their connection to each other.
Is there a way to get Designer to link the eDir driver in Vault 1 to the corresponding eDir driver in Vault 2?"
And here are a few responses ...
(Lothar Haeger)
Connect both edir icons with a line in Developer View, and they'll be converted into one edir2edir icon. It took me a while to figure that one out.
(Marvin Dean)
You can also do an edir to edir import.
When importing a driverset, if you highlight the edir driver on the import summary page then click the "eDir2eDir" button, it will allow you to import the other side of the edir driver as well. When done this way, they will come in connected.

01. The blog is now closed. I know, I know, I know, so if the blog closes then what's happening to IKK? Well it's going to go bye-bye for a little bit while I learn how to use Dreamweaver and div layers. That, and balance school and work. I'm sorry to say it may very well be months until it is back but it WILL be back with a vengeance and in ways that you will barely believe.
02. The forums will remain open. There is but one factor keeping me from trashing the forums entirely, and that's Ryuus translations so thank him profusely for it. No offense but the forums have become this form of annoyance that I really don't need right now, and there are not enough active people. Honestly the Keiko fan base has become exhausting and I'd rather focus on Keiko herself. True she's become famous enough that she doesn't need a promoter, but she's still my favorite so if anything I will continue to spread the love. Her English speaking branch isn't nearly as powerful as her Japanese branch and I would love to be the one to help change that. If that's the case than the forums might as well be useless in the sense that it can never be as focus on her as the site would be. Granted, it would alienate anyone who isn't all that fond of Keiko and just likes the community and I would be sorry to lose that. But it IS less drama so....the future of the forums is unclear but it's there so enjoy it.
03. I'm leaving the country. While the original intent was for me to be in Tokyo, money is of course an issue, so that's not going to happen. So the next best thing? Going to another design capital in the world! As of January 12, 2009 to April 28, 2009 I will be studying abroad in Rome, Italy! I will also be studying a bit in England, Switzerland, France, and Greece so if any Keiko fans live there---let me know! I will be taking Italian (since it's mandatory--wonder why..lol...) an Italian Design class with a three day excursion to Milan, a Roman Literature class, Advanced Drawing (which is Junior level so I will have to work hard) and Digital Photography!
03. I will be opening an artist blog. Yes, you'll be able to follow me all over Rome through entries and video streams. From flea markets, to vineyards, museums, opera's, and fashion shows! I'll put up photos and my artwork and you'll get to know me and my friends better! The page is under construction now but I'll alert (via the forums) with a link when it's ready. Bookmark the page! And comments are more than welcome.
04. I'm not Keiko. Stunning revelation, I know, but I still get e-mails addressing me as if I were! That being said, I hope you guys will still keep me posted on Keiko activities even though I'll be removed from them. More often than not I won't know what's going on since I'll be busy trying to adapt to the Italian culture. Whatever Keiko stuff I stumble upon (scans, media, ect) I will keep until I update again, so be prepared to be overwhelmed by a stellar return.
Thanks so much to everyone who's supported IKK this year through all the ups and downs. You don't know how much I truly appreciate it and although it may not always appear that way I am very, very thankful! So let's make 2009 an awesome year even bigger and better than 2008! God bless you all! See you in...goodness...MAY!
Love, Sade

Saturday afternoon in Adrian Kuypers's Chinese factory, four women are labouring over unfinished door panels piled beside the silent production line.
The wooden sheets are scarred by small defects, rendering them unfit for export to markets in Europe and Asia. But the women painstakingly examine the panels and fix them by hand -- an act of labour intensity unheard of in North America.
"In Canada, they'd just dump these panels," says Mr. Kuypers, the Canadian executive who commands this 30-year-old factory filled with modern fibre-board technology.
The factory, in a shambling industrial area of this northeastern Chinese city, discards almost nothing -- mainly because these casual labourers work for 600 yuan a month, equivalent to less than $100 (Canadian).
Mr. Kuypers, the plant's tough, affable general manager, says that if not for his plant, the women probably would not be working at all. Even his full-time workers earn just $200 to $250 a month, which in Shenyang is a very good wage.
The powerful appeal of this economic formula -- excess labour, low wages, strong work ethic and the latest Western technology -- has kept Mr. Kuypers in China despite the torrent of trials that has befallen him and his employer, Innovative Board Technologies Inc. of Cambridge, Ont.
Since first contemplating a Chinese factory a decade ago, the 61-year-old executive has seen one joint venture fall through, several financings evaporate and thousands of dollars spent in transactions not authorized by the company's board.
He has quarrelled at times with his major Chinese partner, Shenyang Heavy Machinery Group. He has battled managerial favouritism, engineered two executive coups, coped with quality-control problems and faced down the threat of factory disruption by terminated employees.
"We've really toughed it out, I tell you," Mr. Kuypers says, in what qualifies as a classic understatement.
And yet he has remained committed to China, and that's finally paying off. In April, 2003, his joint venture with two state-owned partners finally started producing moulded door panels, known as doorskins, at the 185-employee plant. By the end of this year, Mr. Kuypers hopes to eke out a positive cash flow.
"I'm disappointed with the length of time it's taken, but I can't pin it on Adrian," says Mr. Kuypers's boss, Ken MacDonald, who, as the owner of IBT, has invested $9.5-million in the venture. "He's a significant optimist and one of the hardest workers I've ever met."
The joint venture, called Shenyang Shendor Wooden Co., embodies the things that can go wrong for Canadians in China, and why, despite it all, they are often willing to stick it out. Part of the lure is the huge potential payoff. There is also the sense that, after investing so much sweat and cash, it would be painful just to walk away.
"There are always good reasons not to be in China," Mr. Kuypers acknowledges. "But I'm afraid that we will do all the hard work and miss out on the fun."
Mr. Kuypers, who was born in Amsterdam and emigrated to Canada as a 22-year-old, did not get into this as some fresh-faced innocent. A seasoned forest-products executive, he has been back and forth to Asia during the past 25 years, building and managing fibre-board plants. He undertook his first Chinese project in the early 1980s.
In the early '90s, Mr. MacDonald approached him about developing a Chinese factory that would be a showcase for the work of engineering companies that the entrepreneur controls in southwestern Ontario.
Mr. MacDonald, with Mr. Kuypers as his hired gun, would come in as a minority partner working with local and international investors, build a model plant with worldwide sales and use his cut of the cash flow to seed other fibre-board and door plants across China and elsewhere in the world.
Canadian contacts drew Mr. Kuypers to Shenyang, a city of seven million in China's northeastern rust belt with a reputation for decrepit state-run industries and corruption. But there was also the promise of financing and a new wave of public officials intent on burying the region's infamous past.
At the first Team Canada trade mission to China in 1994, Mr. Kuypers and Mr. MacDonald were among the many Canadians who announced deals with Chinese firms. But the original partnership to build a fibre-board plant quickly collapsed, Mr. Kuypers says.
The dream was shelved for two years, until new partners emerged in the form of two state-owned enterprises, including Shenyang Heavy Machinery Group. Mr. MacDonald took a 25-per-cent interest in the new project to make door panels using pulp chips harvested in northeast China forests.

Jules Marie Auguste LerouxFrench, 1871-1954
Leroux received his formal training in Paris at "l'Ecole des Arts Décoratifs" then at "l'Ecole des Beaux-Arts" under the tutelage of Léon Bonnat. The artist received the sought-after "Grand Prix de Rome" in 1894. This prize was awarded annually by the French government, through highly competitive examinations, to the most talented students of the fine arts.
Leroux exhibited at the "Salon des Artistes Français" beginning in1898; he became a committee member in 1904. He won a Bronze Medal at"l'Exposition Universelle" in Paris in 1900. Parallel to his career as an illustrator of famous books from Balzac, Flaubert, Stendhal, Goethe and as a painter of genre scenes, portraits and nudes, Leroux was a professor at "l'Ecole des Beaux-Arts" in Paris from 1906 to 1939.
Leroux executed works for several public buildings including some mosaics for the Sacré-Cœur, the crown of Montmartre, Paris. He was awarded Chevalier de la Légion d'Honneur. Leroux's paintings show exquisite academic training and the artist's inspiration from the life of Parisduring the Belle Epoque (the 1900's). He painted many very realistic works of ballet dancers in beautiful and detailed interiors as well as audacious nudes revealing Leroux's fascination with the female form.

Telegony – Hannah Baggott
Wind thickened with tea-steam and brine,
I pocketed heavy history—each page grazed
for cocaine on the plane back to a home I hoped
had forgotten me. Home: my mother asks me
if I still believe in our God, or had I felt something
else out there—something foreign? She keeps a list
of the pagans she knows. Once, I saw a swan break
the arm of a man who got too close, and the cameras came
and questioned my face in white flashes. But in Greece,
a swan can rape beautifully, and there are no photos—
only sketched curves, fluid from thigh to neck, and no one cries.
Hannah Baggott is a Nashville, TN native currently pursuing an MFA in poetry at Oregon State University while teaching English Composition courses with a rhetorical focus on gender and media. She helps run an open mic for poetry and spoken word for the Corvallis community, and has recently been awarded the 2015 Bellevue Literary Review Marcia and Jan Vilcek Prize for Poetry.

Navigating the world of home loan finance can be overwhelming for even the most credit- and real estate-savvy consumers. Myriad options and programs are available to consumers, so it is important to determine, first, you and your family's financial priorities and goals. If you have a first mortgage and a home equity line of credit, there are several methods by which you can eliminate the smaller loan. It is important, however, to consider the advantages and disadvantages of each method.
Refinance Payoff
It is possible to pay off a home equity loan using the cash from a first mortgage refinance. The question, however, is whether you should do this. Refinancing your first mortgage to pay off an equity loan will increase the size of your first mortgage and your first mortgage payment. It will also affect the loan-to-value ratio on your home, which in turn can affect the first mortgage rates you will be offered. For example, if you have a home worth $400,000, a first mortgage of $350,000 and a home equity loan of $25,000, your LTV on a first mortgage refinance of both these loans will be 94 percent.
Loan-to-Value Considerations
It is critically important to know how your lender plans to adjust your rate and mortgage payment as you increase the size of your mortgage refinance. Mortgage lenders often have matrixes that establish categories of rates based on loan-to-value. The most competitive mortgage rates are offered when your loan-to-value is below 80 percent. If you have a loan-to-value over 95 percent, you may not qualify for a market mortgage rate, and this may affect your ability to take out cash in the refinance as well.
Long-Term Considerations
If you decide to use refinance proceeds to pay off an existing equity loan, you need to make sure that your long-term financial goals will be met with that refinance. While it may be possible to save money in the short term by refinancing, you may be actually paying more in the long term if you agree to a higher first mortgage interest rate.
Payoff Considerations
Paying off an existing equity loan with cash from a refinance is straightforward, but because your house is at stake -- after all, it serves as collateral -- you must ensure that you follow the correct procedure. Once you receive your funds and you send the appropriate amount to your equity loan lender, request a release of lien. This document guarantees that this lender no longer holds a position on your home.

One of the great things about kids is the fact that they can hang out with another kid for five minutes and suddenly be the best of friends. This is, or rather was the case for two little girlie girls in my class. They sat together in the circle on the first day of school and have been inseparable ever since. But just like in a family when people spend too much time together little irritating things start to creep in. You love each other just the same, but those little things that you love one day can be like a thorn in your side on others.
I could tell things were not good today between "Lucy and Ethel". They were bickering and arguing from the time they walked in to the room this morning, to lunch and recess, to dismissal. The tattling on each other was relentless and at one point it even got a little physical.
"Lucy" has a way of saying just the right thing to get "Ethel" to seethe. I could see the level of frustration growing in Ethel until I turned just at the right time and saw her get right up into Lucy's face and FLIP HER THE MIDDLE FINGER.
My jaw dropped. I dropped the pencil I was holding in my hand. I stood frozen, and then I reacted.
"Ethel, I think you need to come with me."
I took her hand and calmly walked her to the office sat her down in the chair and let our principal know about the offending obscene gesture.
So off I went back to my classroom.
About 20 minutes or so later we were cleaning up for lunch and Mrs. Principal came in with Ethel in tow. She was chuckling to herself while we both watched Ethel walk up to Lucy to offer the most sincere apology she could manage.
I looked at Mrs. Principal and said, "okay, what's so funny."
Laughing she said, "Well, I told her that it was a really nasty thing to do, that it is really really insulting and disrespectful and she should never do it again."
"I asked her where she learned to do that."
She said, "My teacher taught it to me."
I looked at Mrs. Principal and said, "and I suppose you want to see the lesson plan?"

The newspaper industry is struggling with Internet competition, declining circulation and a tough revenue picture, which is threatening the stability of the industry and harming the public's ability to get important news and information. And it's hard to overestimate the importance of the news industry in ensuring that the electorate is well-enough informed to make wise decisions in the voting booth. Therefore, we believe Congress should provide tens of billions of dollars in loans and subsidies to newspapers, in order to ... .
Hold on. Stop dialing our publisher's number, and take a deep breath. We are only kidding. As important as we believe the newspaper industry to be, it's even more important that the government stays out of our business. Newspapers, which are slogging through a tough economic environment, would lose their independence - not to mention their entrepreneurial zeal - if the government were to come in and bail us out. And private companies must live or die with private funds. It's unfair to take money wrested from citizens by force (taxes) and give it to other private individuals.
So, now substitute the term "newspaper industry" with "automobile industry." The basic principle is the same, isn't it? Why should taxpayers be forced to bail out U.S. carmakers, who are once again going hat-in-hand to Congress. This time the Big Three are seeking as much as $38 billion in assistance. The auto executives planned to drive from Detroit to Washington in cars rather than fly in aboard private jets, which shows they've learned a thing or two about political staging since their prior appearance last month, but not much about economics.
Frankly, there are many economic sectors in the doldrums right now. Unfortunately, the federal government has approved an unconscionable $700 billion bailout of the financial sector. But almost everyone is hurting. Yes, the public needs automobiles, but there always will be someone to provide them.
Small-business owners, manufacturers, retailers and companies of all types are having a tough time during this recession. But it's philosophically wrong to rob Peter to pay Paul. ip have foisted on the company. Why should the taxpayers bailout years of short-sighted decisions?
When taxpayers bail out any company, it sends the wrong signal. It encourages business owners to take unsustainable risks. Why not, if the government is there to cushion the blow?

Valentine's Day is a pretty warped holiday when you think about it. For people who aren't in a relationship, it's often cringe-inducing to see other people get cards/flowers/candy/stuffed animals, even if you're not usually into that kind of thing. But it can be much more uncomfortable for the participating parties — suddenly there are baffling expectations that center on overpriced lingerie, armloads of roses, and tables-for-two. To take some of the stress out of the situation, check out our shopping guide for February 14. We'll go ahead and warn you that there is an overwhelming amount of both hearts and the color red involved, but everything that we've picked out is a present that we'd actually be psyched to give or receive — or simply buy for ourselves. Let us know in the comments which gifts you love!

At 10-05 a.m. Swamishri arrived at Tajpur village to perform the ground-breaking
ceremony for a new mandir. While going to the site Swamishri offered his respect to
Yagneshwar Mahadev.
In the assembly Swamishri talked about the glory of Tajpur, "The association with this village started when the mandir in Sarangpur was being built. Shastriji Maharaj used to come here
a lot. And the devotees of this village had offered their tremendous services in the construction
of the mandir in Sarangpur. And Shastri Maharaj had a special bond with this village. The devotees, though of ordinary means, participated in festivals held at the mandir in Sarangpur.
"Shastriji Maharaj used to travel to these small villages. The homes were small with little arrangements. But before the love and affection of the devotees there was no need for facilities.
It was because of the love of Shabri that Lord Ram accepted berries from her...
"This village was also blessed by Yogiji Maharaj. Swami also used to come here often... The village has developed a lot since then. There was a small mandir here and now a bigger mandir will be built. Since the devotees are enthusiastic the new mandir will take shape within no time."
Swamishri performed the ground-breaking ceremony at the auspicious time of 12.05 p.m. 1000 devotees and well-wishers had attended the occasion.
After lunch Swamishri returned to Sarangpur at 1.40 p.m.
After his evening dinner Swamishri met a devotee called Bhayabhai. Bhayabhai humbly expressed his wish to Swamishri, "Bapa, I want to please you." Swamishri replied, "Do bhajan and inspire Satsang in others."

Meet Liropus minusculus, a new species of skeleton shrimp found off the coast of California.
You may be interested to note that this creature is neither a skeleton nor a shrimp. Instead, it's a crustacean in the Caprillidae family of amphipods.
Weird doesn't begin to describe these creatures. Check out this clip:
For much more on this, including a Caprillidae anatomy lesson "skeleton shrimp have taken the basic amphipod body plan and dialed all the features to 'scary'", head over to Jennifer Frazer's piece at Scientific American Blogs.

Being an honest to goodness adult can be tricky at times. I don't feel any more responsible then I did 15 years ago. (though most would testify I was a much more mature 16 year old child than I am as a 31 year old adult.) All that said, I have grown up responsibilities now. I have a wife and very soon we will have a home to ourselves.
Helen and I both hope to live in Brighton some time in the future and we are both constantly looking for opportunities to make that hope a reality. I was gutted last November when two weeks before my VISA was approved a job came up in Brighton that would have been ideal both for my previous experience and location, location, location. The closing date for said job was three days before my VISA was approved.
The job is roughly summarised as an adult moderator for a youth populated online game community hosted by a well known house of mouse. My duties will include but not be limited to helping parents of members in the community as well as policing the community so that it remains a safe place for the members to make friends in all corners of the world, and the freedom to play several different online games. I think.
The job has recently been listed again, and I jumped at the opportunity to throw my hat in the ring. Obviously the circumstances are slightly different. I now actually have a job for one, and scheduling interviews around my very long and anti-social work hours is no small task.
As of yesterday I have made it through three levels. (A call back after emailing my CV {Resume} and cover letter, A phone interview, and a questionnaire.) the final stage of the interview process is a 3-4 hour assessment interview in Brighton which has me stressing more than I would like to admit. I am not worried that I will do poorly I'm worried that I am so excited that I might actually get this job that I will be devastated if I don't.
I am very lucky in that I do very well in interviews, I'm likeable and have a quality that makes people want be part of the fun that is knowing me. (I'm not being conceited I have worked long and hard at being good at this, or at least giving off this vibe.) I'm also really good at using humour to deflect my nervousness. (A skill that I have been honing since I started noticing girls liked boys that could make them laugh.)
This interview is really important to me, not least of all because If I get the job Helen and I will be moving into our own place! I will let you all know how the assessment day goes in my next post, hopefully by then I will know one way or another if I will be working for the online division of the house of mouse.

Arizona Backs Down on Dangerous Abortion Restrictions
For Immediate Release: Aug. 23, 2016
Phoenix, AZ — Today, a federal district court judge concluded a challenge to a 2015 Arizona law that would have forced doctors to mislead patients by telling them that it may be possible to "reverse" a medication abortion. The parties agreed to end the case following the state legislature's actions this past session to repeal this dangerous mandate that Governor Doug Ducey signed despite that it was contrary to all medical evidence. This follows a wave of victories for reproductive health and rights since the landmark ruling from the Supreme Court on June 27th, with courts now having blocked laws in 10 states including in Alabama, Alaska, Florida, Kansas, Indiana, Mississippi, Ohio, Texas, Utah, and Wisconsin.
"This reckless law was a prescription for bad medicine and government interference at its worst. This is exactly why politicians need to leave the practice of medicine to medical professionals," said Bryan Howard, President of Planned Parenthood Arizona. "We will never stop fighting for our patients and every person's right to accurate medical information and safe, compassionate care."
"The repeal of this unjustified restriction is good news for women, but it shouldn't have taken a year in court to convince Arizona politicians to keep junk science out of the exam room," said Andrew Beck, staff attorney at the ACLU's Reproductive Freedom Project. "Lawmakers should recognize that Arizona women deserve high-quality medical care—not political ideology masquerading as medicine."
"Women should never be force-fed lies and misinformation about their health in order to advance a political agenda," said Nancy Northup, president and CEO of the Center for Reproductive Rights. "Junk science has no place in medicine and we are confident these unconstitutional restrictions on safe and legal abortion will continue to crumble across the country."
Because there is no credible, medically accepted evidence that a medication abortion can be reversed, this law is opposed by medical experts, including the American Medical Association (AMA) and American Congress of Obstetricians and Gynecologists(ACOG). Dr. Ilana Addis and Dr. Julie Kwatra, chairwoman and legislative chair of the Arizona Section of ACOG respectively, called the Arizona law "bad medicine" and "tantamount to quackery."If it had gone into effect, this law would have forced doctors to provide all patients seeking a safe, legal abortion — even patients who cannot have a medication abortion or who have chosen a surgical procedure — with medically inaccurate and misleading information that could be harmful to their health.
The plaintiffs in this case — Planned Parenthood Arizona, Eric Reuss, M.D., Paul A. Isaacson, M.D., Desert Star Family Planning, and DeShawn Taylor, M.D. — are represented by attorneys from the American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU), the ACLU of Arizona, the Center for Reproductive Rights, Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PFFA), and Squire Patton Boggs.
Planned Parenthood is the nation's leading provider and advocate of high-quality, affordable health care for women, men, and young people, as well as the nation's largest provider of sex education. With approximately 700 health centers across the country, Planned Parenthood organizations serve all patients with care and compassion, with respect and without judgment. Through health centers, programs in schools and communities, and online resources, Planned Parenthood is a trusted source of reliable health information that allows people to make informed health decisions. We do all this because we care passionately about helping people lead healthier lives.

Bent – Hilarious and Underpromoted
I think I first heard something about NBC's Bent almost a year ago when the 2011-2012 season pick-ups were announced. I didn't recognize any of the actors on the show, and the premise sounded bland. An uptight lawyer falling for her contractor? Yawn.
I didn't come across another word about the show until my brother asked my opinion on it. Surprised that there was a broadcast scripted show I knew nothing about, I looked up a preview trailer. And liked it. The two leads had great chemistry, there was an excellent supporting cast, and there was a perfect balance of wit and situational comedy. And then I got mad.
NBC had utterly failed this show when it came to promotion. If I, someone who kept up with dozens of shows and looked for all the latest news on TV, barely knew this show existed, how would everyone else know? That meant the premiere episodes would rate low. And by airing back-to-back episodes every week, Bent's abbreviated 6-episode season would only have 2 weeks to build word-of-mouth. The show was doomed before it aired its first episode.
And I was right. The show was everything I hoped it would be – heartfelt, hilarious, zany. The contractor's father and crew, along with the lawyer's daughter and sister, rounded out the cast in unexpected ways, creating a "family of misfits" vibe right from the start. Fortunately for me, the show aired at a time when I didn't have other plans, so I was able to watch every episode live.
But just as I predicted, the ratings were terrible, even by NBC's standards. This was Free Agents all over again – a badly promoted show with a premise that sounded terrible and gave no hint of the show's true nature. At least Bent was able to air all its filmed episodes, and the season (and almost certainly series) finale wrapped up a few loose ends to give the show a bit of closure.

Wow, I actually recognize three of the main cast members, but I hadn't heard of this show before. Interestingly two of the three are from other canceled too soon shows, Jeffrey Tambor from Arrested Developement, and David Walton I recognized from 100 Questions. After checking out his profile on IMDB I also noticed David Walton was in a few other early cancelation shows I liked: Quarterlife and Perfect Couples. I hope he isn't the male version of Summer Glau, in interesting shows that tend to die young (the shows, not the actors).
I just found Bent today, and I'm already hooked!
I remember seeing some previews in the fall, but then I didn't hear anything about it for a long time. I didn't even know it had premiered until the 6 episodes had already aired. I'm really so upset, this show would be a great addition to NBC's comedy linup, but they're not even giving it a chance. David and Amanda have insane chemistry (and David is just so good as the cocky, smooth-talking, secretly sweet Pete). He has this flirty, funny reparte with Peet's character, Alex, and also such great relationships with his hilarious artist dad (Jeffrey Tambor in his best TV role since "Arrested Development"), Alex's daughter, and his motley crew (with JB Smoove from "Curb" and Jesse Plemons from "Friday Night Lights.")
Please, NBC! Give Bent a chance! I've watched all the episodes online, and it's definitely something special!

text: Rights are a story. Good people can disagree on what they should be, and there is no objective way of showing one to be correct. The only basis for creating a set of stories, and an underlying common story we can all share is to start by listening. Ideological arguments are fairly pointless if there isn't a set of shared facts and shared assumptions. The more global you get, the less agreement there will be. The more local, you get the more agreement there can be. We know from personal relationships, and breakups, that even at the ultra local level it is brutally difficult. Pillow politics is perhaps the hardest. Family tensions are something that unites almost everyone I know. The starting point for consensus has to be finding what we have in common. What it is we are fighting for together.

George Cochran's Favorite Spinner Bait Tactics
Editor's Note: Fifty-one-year old George Cochran of Hot Springs, Arkansas, has competed in 19 BASS Masters Classics and enjoys fishing Strike King lures. He won the Classic in 1987 and 1996. Cochran won on Lay Lake in 1996 with a total weight of 31 pounds 14 ounces. He has had six career wins and 47 top-10 finishes.
Question: What are your two favorite spinner bait tactics?
Answer: I have fished a spinner bait since I started carrying a fishing pole when I was 10-years old. The spinner bait is one of my favorite baits. My two favorite techniques depend on the type of water I'll be fishing.
When I won the Classic in 1996, the fishing conditions were perfect for me. I fished shallow, dingy water and concentrated on areas with stumps and wood. When I won the Classic by throwing the spinner bait past the cover, reeling it up to that cover and bumping it, as soon as I'd bump the cover, I'd kill the spinner bait for a second and retrieve again.
That's the technique I used to catch all my fish in one big bay. So, I didn't have to do a lot of running around but stayed in my one region and caught all my fish. Remaining in one section of the lake gives you a good chance of winning a tournament.
Another favorite spinner bait technique of mine is buzzing a spinner bait and using a stop/start retrieve. In other words, in clear or dingy water, make long casts, and reel the spinner bait to the point where it's just about to blaze or come out of the water. The lure will make a wake, and you must shake your rod all the time.
Some people say, "I can't do that." But, you just need to learn the rhythm and reel in the spinner bait -- it looks like a minnow or a shad running and trying to get away, like something's chasing it. You can get some of the best fishing strikes that you could imagine.

This two-part tale is pure non-sense like many ghostly legends, but fun nevertheless. The Blue Man legend, out of Grand Haven, Michigan, has been around for a few decades. The legend tells of a glowing blue figure that watches over the cemetery at night. The "blue man" is rumored to be the spirit of Reverend William M. Ferry, one of Grand Haven's founding fathers.
The second part of the legend tells of the "stairway to hell" (cue the dramatic music here). In the middle of the cemetery rests an old, winding, uneven staircase leading up to a hill where Grand Haven's founders and notables are buried. Naturally, it's considered one of the spookiest parts of the cemetery given its secluded location and old, worn out tombstones scattered about the small plot of land. Of course, this is also where the "blue man" is said to perch himself at night near his tombstone.
There's a lot more history behind this historic and awesome cemetery, and of course, you can read more about it in the book, Ghosts & Legends Of Michigan's West Coast available on Michigan's Otherside. Yeah, yeah…shameless plug. Go to the bookstore and get your signed copy today and help support Michigan authors.
Have you had an experience at Lake Forest Cemetery? Comment below.
**All cemeteries should be entered with respect. Leave them like you found them. Don't litter, don't vandalize anything or so help me, 10,000 demons will strike you down. If the cemetery has hours posted, respect that or find out how to get permission to be in after hours. Many times a simple phone call to the right person will grant access into a cemetery after it's closed. If you can't get access, enjoy the cemetery during open hours. I am a firm believer that spirits don't just come out at night. I think it's just "ghost hunters" who only come out at night. Respect nearby private property and don't trespass where you do not belong.

Does Tea Party Extremist Joe Heck Carry His Koch Cash In A Wallet Or A Money Clip?
Joe Heck is trying to buy a Nevada Senate seat with the help of millions in outside spending from the Koch brothers' political network. The only hiccup in this scheme is that Heck has to take the debate stage tonight and actually defend his congressional record . Unfortunately for Heck, money can't change the fact that he's been an unmitigated disaster in Congress for the Silver State.
Heck will try to portray himself as a "thousand points of light" moderate tonight, but Heck rode into Congress on the Tea Party wave and hasn't strayed from the extremism that got him elected in 2010.
Heck's anti-choice extremism cannot be overstated. In 2012, Heck voted for a 20-week abortion ban that didn't include exceptions for rape or incest. Heck also voted to deny women access to emergency reproductive care–even if an abortion were necessary to save their life–if hospitals objected on moral grounds. Heck […]Read more after the jump.

Warning: This intro is pretty long so feel free to skip it. It's just some self reflection mumbo jumbo crap that isn't interesting at all. XD But then again, if you don't, the title and some of the things I write won't make sense... Anyways, thanks to those who do! And thanks to those who come just to look at pictures! You all mean a lot to me! <3
I have made a decision. I have decided to try and stop being such a downer on myself. I've been growing up with almost no self esteem or confidence and it's effecting me negatively with my relationships, school/career, just life in general. I'm finally understanding the whole "if you don't love yourself, how can you love somebody else?" thing. I'm so used to always putting myself down that it's become a habit. I don't even have to think when I put a "Lulz I'm so ugly" caption. It's like, automatic. Lulz not good. It's good to be humble, but not self destructive.
A couple people have asked me "If you think you're so ugly, why do you take so many pictures of yourself? Are you just fishing for compliments?" Lulz no. Actually, taking my own pictures is actually what helped me grow more comfortable with myself. I kept taking them and then I kept seeing my own face and it forced me to just accept that this is how I look. I'm not pretty but whatever. I can fix it with surgery. LULZ. And I guess playing with photoshop and seeing this better looking version had a psychological affect of making me think more positively about how I look. Lulz I dunno.
But yeah, I need some confidence and self esteem. I can't keep thinking people are lying to me to be nice. I can't keep stopping myself from doing things like auditioning because I think I suck. Fake it till I make it I guess lulz. I can't keep sitting out of things cause I'm afraid of looking bad.
So I am going to try to stop bashing myself! Ahhh this is going to be hard cause I've been doing it my whole life. But I will try! I want to be happy with myself! I can't keep hating myself for forever D:
Well enough of my rambling. Onto the post! I do apologize though cause there's a lot of selcas in this post as well. But most are decent ones! (Progress? :D)
Sunday the 16th
I got an email asking if I could play the supporting character in a short film by another student. Seeing as I wouldn't be doing anything else acting-wise this year again, I said yes! :D
I had a lot of time till the scheduled shoot, so I played with Takutzjin.
Outside my bedroom window
Lulz this shot was a mistake. I pressed the shutter on accident but it came out decent so I kept it! XD
Played around with colors on photoshop
I've taken a liking to the webcam cause it doesn't show my smile lines! :DDD I think they're getting deeper and more prominent as I get older T__T
Left to right: Staring into your soul, trying to act pretty, peace, hmm, *gasp*, fake smile, real smile, trying to act cute/scared for the shoot
I forgot to grab Takutzjin with me so I couldn't take any pictures. Sad cause the people I met were so nice and funny! We were all second years but they seemed way older than me cause they were so knowledgeable and passionate! I just listened to them talk about their craft. I love listening to people talking about things they're passionate about! It's so interesting!
The shoot was so fun! And guess what, they used a Bolex to shoot! For those of you who don't know what that is, it's:
Old school original. Hell yeah! It was so cool to be shot by this cause I got to hear the "ch ch ch ch ch" sound! XD But the last scene had to be shot twice because the film got messed up D: I know I did a shit job. (Failing already.) This was my second time doing film and first time doing a serious role. Eek. Hopefully I get better! (Progress :D)
Tuesday the 18th
Just regular school.
What I wore that day:
I had my hair braided to the side that day but I eventually took it out. I never really do things to my hair cause:
Wednesday the 19th
I skipped my one class cause I didn't want to carry a back pack to the fashion show my friend was in.
What I wore that day:
Bad picture, bad lighting. It was gloomy and I don't really have a light. By the way, that area used to have my piano! We sold it a bit ago!
I had to go to school to meet up with my Lit. partner so we could finish up a presentation thing. I was supposed to meet up with my scene partner to practice our scene 2 hours later but he couldn't make it so I had nothing to do until 7:30. I wrote up a paper for my speech class cause I missed my presentation day and I'd rather write the paper than speak and then I checked out three plays and read. Then I went to eat:
Haven't had Chipotle in forever!
I still had time so:
Starbucks across the street and more reading.
Dreary, cold weather. I walked through it but I ended up going the wrong way! I walked to the Sears Tower instead of Millennium Park! FAIL. Thank goodness I brought an umbrella for the first time ever on that day! But going the wrong way and wasting time ended up being good. I was still an hour early to the show and I had to wait the whole time in a line where it was super hot and my feet were killing me. I wore heels. They don't hurt if I walk but they do if I stand for a long time. I just read in the line lulz.
The rain seeped into the tent
My childhood friend was a finalist of the "Mario Make Me a Model" contest. That was pretty much what the show was for. I think.
The featured band.
Two brothers named Brandon and Lucas Marx. They were kinda meh for me. No energy.
The show begins! Sorry, I only took a couple of each cause I was more into watching cause it passed so fast! And they aren't very good pictures. I was in the last row which turned out to be good cause I could stand to take pictures. I just wish I had an awesome telephoto lens!
There were five featured designers.
Imaginary People
Michelle Tan
I liked her designs the best.
That was my friend. I was looking down at my camera and when I looked up, I realized it was her but she was already turning! So I missed her shot! D:
I liked these as well!
The finalists' last walk
Mercedes. I really liked her! If my friend didn't win, I wanted her to win!
Here she comes! This time I made sure I got her!
It was crazy to see her on the runway! From this:
To this!:
I didn't get the guy cause he was too bright and his pictures were too blurry.
There's the man himself to announce the winner! Mario Tricoci!
*Drum roll*
For the first time, two people won! YAY~~
Highlight of my day! And then I just went home.
Look at what the weather did to my hair lulz
Do I look tired? I was exhausted
The goodie bag
Lulz not much. A vitiman water, a comb, and some discount cards.
Picture explains all. It was a shit day again. I don't know how but I overslept and there was no bus coming for some reason I don't know so I had to take a cab to the station. I hate paying for cabs but I really didn't want to be late today cause I was presenting! So I got on the train and I would have been on time BUT! I zoned out so hard that I missed my stop and ended up in China Town! And then I was late! Grrrrr after I paid for a cab. OTL I was so mad at myself I started to cry lulz. I did a crap job on my presentation. My partner couldn't make it to our practice again. Sadness. But we got to practice after class so yay. I'm so glad the week is over. It wasn't a very good one again. Phew.
Well I have to shower nows.

New Primarch announced tomorrow?
19 comments:
- Anonymous30 June 2015 at 20:47
Either Corax or Perturabo.ReplyDelete
Alpharius possibly.
After the surprise of Rupert Girlyman being released before they finished the Isstvan ranges I wouldn't be surprised if another Primarch got released.
Give me Magnus and the Scarab Occult! Think Prospero will follow Calth.Replies
I don't think they have the resource at the moment to undertake Inferno. A whole Vlka Fenryka, Thousand Sons, Sisters of Silence and Custodes range at this stage with so many outstanding models seems mad. I'd prefer to see a Diamat book featuring the Dark Angels as the main story, with Night Lords and the Thramas crusade too makes most sense to me. Gives them time to catch up again.Delete
But the Vlka Fenryka and Thousand sons will be absolutely epic.
- Anonymous1 July 2015 at 19:24
I hate to admit it but you might be right. Battles for Prospero and Terra are so epic they'll be last. Plus Adeptus Custodes could be in the Terra book but nobody would mind if it was just after Prospero.Delete
I know where Forge World is concerned it will be well worth the wait.
Maybe they could release some of the new Titan weaponry. P.s. Could you answer this question for me. I'm sure I saw some mock ups of the Titan legions transfer sheets did I imagine this ? Or did anyone else see themReplyDeleteReplies
I have 3 people saying neigh they have not been seen. So don't think so yet. Hopefully they will though.mTransfers are a good little money maker really.Delete
I must of imagined it/hoped for it lol :) you are right though a very good little money earner for themDelete
How about this? It's probably Legio Atarus transfer sheet!Delete
Yup. There it is. The Firebrands. Thanks for confirming that :)Delete
Ah thanks for that I thought I'd imagined it at first, thanks again guys.....mmm now do I paint up my warlord in firebrands colours!Delete
My money is on Perturabo, but my hope is for Corax!ReplyDeleteReplies
I feel the same, but any of those two would satisfy me nevertheless!Delete
. . . . Maybe Friday. . .ReplyDelete
One can hope. But at this point, i wouldn't be surprised if we didn't get anything either. Just for more surprise at the event.ReplyDelete
Fingers crossed for Sanguinius.. :)ReplyDelete
But seriously they are gonna be pumping them out if they really plan on being caught up by Christmas! There simply has to be a new one this weekend if they want to keep to schedule.
PERTURABO IS HEEEREEEE!!!!ReplyDeleteReplies

Something Borrowed from Stampin'Up!
Last week I made this quick card with our new "Something Borrowed" DSP.... I adore this Sahara Sand DSP, and the matching lace! But as you know, I do have a "thing" for neutrals :-) Isn't it a sweet card?? It could be a Wedding card, or engagement or anniversary... or a range of other options I think. (You can change the sentiment as necessary)
I am going to be making a very similar card to this one in next week's Stamp-A-Stack (the main
"flower" is different)... if you'd like to join us click HERE to book your spot! At a Stamp-A-Stack you'll get to make 6 cards... 3 each of 2 different designs. All materials and refreshments are provided and the class usually takes around 2 hours or so. Cost is $20.. which is a bit of a bargain for 6 cards really! My classes are held on the Central Coast (NSW) and we use Stampin'Up products in class.
I'd love you to join us!
