As I said in an earlier post, Mollie (my sister) is head of Chi Omega songfest (at A&M) for next year... a really big job! She recently asked me to make invitations for a meeting they were hosting for all of the different songfest leaders from each sorority/fraternity. We decided on the damask horizontal invitation and she chose yellow and purple. I think they turned out great and I know her friends loved them! So happy I could make them for her and be a little part of her big job!
Hope you like it! Have a great day!

Station Cafe (formerly the Filling Station)
I just ate the most delicious vegan patty for lunch! Definitely NOT a boring sprouts stuck between two pieces of bread because I can't fathom what vegetarians really eat type sandwich. And it was so refreshing to find a casual cafe for lunch that offers creative vegetarian options. Notice that "s"? Yes, there were several options from which I could choose!
The patty was made with brown rice, lentils, and beets, with a few capers for added salt. It came out hot and fresh and was hardy and flavorful. It had a spicy aroma (sage or thyme maybe?). The bun was fresh and light, allowing the flavors of the burger to stand out. They dress the burger with lettuce, tomato, mayo (vegan), and mustard. Next time, I would skip the tomato (didn't mix well with the beet) and ask them to go light on the mustard.
The cafe is downtown in the King William district on S St. Mary's, and it is convenient to many downtown attractions, so I'll definitely head back next time I'm being a tourist.

Gorgeous photos, Dawn! I love hearing about your days!ReplyDelete
beautiful, serene photos!ReplyDelete
So beautiful, particularly that last shot. WOW.ReplyDelete
Very happy to hear of this healthy change you have made. I need to make some serious changes and could use some encouragement. I too would like to be active and eat more healthily ... I just need that kick in the butt. I've made a plan but now I need to implement it (when we move in the new house next week).ReplyDelete
Variety is the spice of life. Each of you needs some variety!ReplyDelete

Beautiful photos! I have a question about Kiki and Boston. Do you trim their hair in the summer? If so, does it impact the quality of their hair when it grows back?
first of all, CHEERS To you for making this change and taking care of yourself...yay yay yay!!! and also...for reaping the benefits from it (lost weight, more energy, mental clarity, etc etc etc). And second of all...THANK YOU for the encouragement. I think as a stay at home momma & "house manager" per say...we tend to let ourselves go....our needs tend to be birthed out when the baby comes and it isn't until a breaking point when we realize, all we really need is a short period of time (Daily i might add) to meditate, pray, be in silence, with our own souls again...and life is birthed right back into us!!! I am so struggling with this...and getting my mr. on board...but i know we'll find our rhythm and one day the sun will be shining in our corner. so thank you for the reminder, the life sharing and the gentle encouragement to seek well being....and to do it sooner than later. I needed this. Hugs and high fives from the land of Wisconsin!! xoReplyDelete
Oh Dawn I love your photos...and congratulations on your weight loss! That is great way to do it! Your bike..wow! I love it!! I use to ride every day (years ago) and it always felt so good!!ReplyDelete
So NICE! Great photos and thanks for sharing the small steps to health and well being.ReplyDelete
So GLD to see you back on a bike....cool.

Yesterday I was linesman for my son's under-17 football team. Today, I chaired a seminar on the RSA's Connected Communities project. What's the link?
One of the ideas behind Connected Communities is that regeneration strategies in deprived communities should start not by creating new state-sponsored capacity, but by understanding existing capacity and exploring how it could be enhanced. This is why we are spending the first few months of the project looking at the understanding of people in our research areas of existing organisational and interpersonal networks. One question is whether, if the community understood the existing pattern of networks better, would it be more able to make new connections and spot and address gaps? If people are already doing good things in their community, can they be encouraged and supported to extend their mandate?
Being linesman for an under 17s game is no fun. Many of the players and parents are fine but far too many are not. Being called a 'f…g cheat' by a sixteen year old boy who doesn't like an offside decision is bad enough, but when the parents and coaches join in you really do wonder why you bother. Each Sunday now it feels like the whole match could kick off, with insults, fights and even death threats being bandied about (I've seen all three and the season is less than a month old). Yet this very volatility underlines what a lifeline organised football is for these kids. Without it where would the energy of fit, aggressive young men (many of whom clearly have huge issues with authority) be channelled?
As I stood yesterday weighing up whether to report the boy to the ref - which might provoke a riot - or put up with it, I wondered why more couldn't be put into designing the context for the match. Three simple measures could make all the difference:
1. Players could be banned from making comments directly to officials, having instead to channel them through the team captain.
2. Parents could be banned from making any audible negative comment about any official or player (including their own team and their own child).
3. More radically, the two teams could be required to come into a mixed huddle before every match for a five minute conversation in which two or three players from each team are required to talk about what the game means to them and how committed they are to it being played in the right spirit.
It is really tough running a football team, particularly with challenging kids. With the pitch fees, the ref's fee, the kits, hiring somewhere to practise, transport etc the costs rise all the time. It's especially hard in the inner city where there is less space for pitches (I won't be holding my breath for help from Boris Johnson's invisible sporting participation plan!). And as the kids get older, as they get harder to organise and as their parents tend to opt out of responsibility, most teams seem close to folding, and many do. So, I admire all the adults who give their time to organise youngsters' football. But just as the saying goes 'if you want something done ask someone who's already busy' so I wish we could squeeze even more out of this commitment, building a culture around the game which meant young people learnt a bit of character alongside the ball skills.

Secrets of Success
Looooooooooong time no see. But Im back!
Wednesday, March 13, 2013
I have been OFF the wagon for far too long. So I am checking in and letting you all know I will be on here on a regular basis from now on. Here is what Ive been up to.
I havent been working out. But have some other stuff going on. At the end of November my left ear closed up on me and I went to the ENT Dr. I thought it just needed cleaned out. So he had me do ear drops for a week. I did that and went back the following week. After looking into it farther he discovered that I have Cholesteatoma (which is skin growing in my ear, eating away the bone). And the only way to get it out is through surgery. He then referred me to his colleague who does surgeries. I met with the surgeon and he suggested I get a CT Scan to see how far along it is. Had the scan done and went back to the surgeon and he said it is very slow growing so................if I wanted I could see about getting a hearing aid for my right ear before having surgery on the other ear (since I can hardly hear out of right ear). I met with his audiologist and it was going to cost me $2000 for one hearing aid. And hearing that, I knew it would take a long time to come up with that money. So I did some investigating and found a Vocational and Rehabilitation center to see if they could help with the cost. After I met with the counselor she said I would qualify to get a hearing aid for FREE. After two dr visits, I should be getting my hearing aid within the next two weeks. I am VERY happy about this.
I have been working two jobs. Still at my fulltime job and working part time in a grocery store as a cashier. It is not bad. I work 3-4 days a week there including Sat. I have Sundays off.
My full time job has moved to a new location. Its an extra ten minutes on my commute. So my commute is now 25 mins. YIKES! The office space is smaller and more cramped. But there is a plus to this...........WE. HAVE. A. GYM. And it has 24 hr access and FREE. I have not checked it out yet, but I heard it is nice.
Ive been sick since Sunday. I left work early on Monday and took off on Tuesday. Im back to work today but Im still not 100%.
Tomorrow I am going to check out the gym with a co worker and see what equipment they have. Then once I feel better I will be able to work out on days I dont go to my other job. Plus I can workout on Saturdays whenever I get out of working 2nd job and was also thinking I could probably do an early Sunday morning workouts too.
I am scheduled to go to my other job tonight but not sure if I will be feeling up to it. SO I might call off tonight.
I have been trying to eat better and limit my sweets and I think I have been doing pretty good.
I have NOT weighed myself in AGES so Im not sure where Im at, but I know I have gained. And that doesnt feel good.
I am just super excited that my job has a gym and I have 24/7 access to it.
How is eveyone doing??? Ive missed you guys.

So sorry to hear about your ear but happy you found out early enough to get it fixed. Don't feel too bad about falling off the wagon. I too have fallen and it's so hard to get back on a healthy program with no time to plan and prepare exercise and meals. But you are back and that is the great thing! I missed my buddy. I was a way too. Almost a year and it feels so good to be back. Please check in once a week at least if you can. I want to make sure you are doing well!

A Spanish citizen who was hiding in Moldova was extradited to the country of origin on April 15 from the Chisinau International Airport. He is suspected of a fraud that damaged Spanish budget for more than 20 million euro.
According to the Spanish journalists, in 2008-2010, Roca Samper Jorge Ignacio, with a partner and his brother created two large companies that owned the biggest purification plants in Valencia. They have created several corporate structures, which charged a fee of 45 euros for each tonne of guck, compared with the actual market price of 18 euro per tonne. It caused more than 20 million euro damage to local budget.
According to the Spanish investigators, although the fraud was committed in Spain, the process of money laundering was done outside the country. The money was transferred to some companies based in Malta, France and even Andorra.
During the investigation the businessman disappeared and was announced internationally wanted by judicial authorities from Madrid.
The scammer was found in the Republic of Moldova in June 2015 in the village Corjova, Criuleni district. His home was searched. The police found a false military card and false Moldovan civil status documents.
Roca Samper Jorge Ignacio was detained for extradition procedure, and on 15 April was extradited in Spain.
The 47-year-old Roca Samper Jorge Ignacio is likely to spend the next ten years in a prison. There are 30 more Spaniards suspected of the participation in this fraud.

The clients brief for this kitchen design was classic with simple, clean lines.
We've used a plain framed door, laminate bench tops with fine elements of recycled Tasmanian oak throughout.
The framed doors have been hand painted in a classic cream. The technique of hand painting gives the doors a lovely texture and replicates an older style of finishing.
The kitchen features a beautiful handmade plate rack created out of recycled Tasmanian Oak machined with a very fine moulding.
The clients brief included that she would like a rack made to display her cool old rolling pins.
The top of the mantlepiece features a nice thick slab of timber to match the other highlights.
All of the details in this kitchen, the hand painted panel doors, the carefully chosen door and drawer pulls, the use of timber for the mantle, the leadblight panels and the elegant display racks combine to create a very unique and beautiful piece of joinery.
A pleasure to build.

The beauty of the modern supply chain is the system has visibility of every empty shelf; just imagine what the Soviets could have done if they had known when their shelves were empty. Actually its not hard to imagine, its not like centralized planning could produce more food or goods even if it wanted to. No, the result would have been that the limited supplies would have been more readily doled out by the government as rewards for compliance and complicity with the system. Its a system the Government would love to implement on ammunition. Call it Smart Grid for ammunition, truth in advertising would actually call it Rationing Grid. Yes, that is the true purpose of the Smart Grid is to ration energy. That is why all funded Smart Grid designs are of Centrally Planned Top Down design architecture. A true functional Smart Grid would have a architecture driven from the bottom up; much like a farmer deciding what to plant and when, vs Soviet Style Famine'ing er "Farming"
But its not just ammunition or electricity, ObamaCare is such a system too. Its a classic example of creating more government as a supposed fix for governmentally created problems. As such, FDA regulations have caused a shortage of Saline (salt water) Solution, and many other drugs too.
Hard to imagine a shortage of salt water isn't it? To "fight" such shortages the FDA is putting out even more regulations to require the Government's approved manufactures to warn the Government when the harvest, err medical supplies are going to fall short.
In a free non Soviet world, someone would decide that now is a good time to start producing sterile salt water; TRY IT see how government regulation is designed to keep you from starting your own business to compete with the favored business. Try setting up your own Doctors Office outside of ObamaCare. Try loading and selling your own .22lr ammo and see how fast you end up in jail. Try selling cupcakes out of your home.
Of course someone reading this right now is screaming, BUT ITS ALL TO KEEP US SAFE. Lol, no its not! We had a perfectly good legal system designed to allow people to combat fraud; we also had a perfectly good system that allowed people to take their money elsewhere and NOT TO CHOOSE crappy products and services. And that is why regulations exist, to prevent you from taking your money elsewhere, and to force you to use "The Company Store".

She had a past medical history of IHD (CABG and stents), hypertension and type 2 diabetes. During her initial assessment she complained of chest pain which lasted approximately 5 minutes and resolved spontaneously.
The first of the ECG's below was taken during the episode of chest pain with the second performed ~ 5 minutes later once the patient was pain free.
Check out the comments on our original post here.

What happened ?
On discussion with the patient it became apparent they's been having unstable angina symptoms for several weeks. A prior angiogram from 18 months previous showed a left main severe distal stenosis (90%) with patent stents and vein grafts.
We got an urgent surgical and cardiological opinion as the combination of ACS and intra-abdominal perforation posed a significant management challenge. The patient received urgent broad-spectrum antibiotic cover and was commenced on heparin with single anti-platelet therapy due to the potential need for surgical intervention. Unfortunately the patient failed conservative treatment with worsening abdominal pain and underwent a laparotomy / washout / resection but suffered a post-procedural cardiac arrest.

Franz SchubertSuggested Reading
Schubert's Vienna is a must-read for anyone who wishes to truly understand the man behind the music. This wonderfully written and masterfully edited book details nearly every aspect of life in Vienna during the time of Franz Schubert. The age is defined historically, politically, socially, and even culturally (referring to the other arts). This makes the book an engaging read even for those who have only a casual interest in the composer but are interested in the city of Vienna or the Romantic era in general. A scholarly work that can be enjoyed by nearly any level student, I defy you to walk away without a sigh of nostalgia for the beauty of Schubert's Vienna.

My friend, my love, and one of my role models Corissa from Fat Girl Flow sent me this sweater and it's my new favourite thing.
I headed over to Cherry Beach in Toronto for these photos, which is one of my favourite places in the summer. Not so much in the winter, but everything is shittier in the wintertime. I love Christmas, but once January hits I'm 1000% over the cold and snow. I've been desperate for summer for over a month now.
Anyway, yes, like I said. Corissa sent me this sweater (I got a 3x) and it's available in her merch store along with a bunch of other cute sweaters, shirts and accessories. I posted this a few months ago wearing her t-shirt as well. The skirt is an oldish one from Asos (very similar here) and the boots are from Zara. They were available for like $10 on the Canadian website until like yesterday- maybe they're still available in America? Everything is better over there except for, you know, the person who runs the country.
Hope everyone is STAYING WARM and I'll talk to yas soon. xo

Corona SDK Mobile Game Development Beginner's Guide
Book Description
In Detail
Corona SDK is the fastest and easiest way to create commercially successful cross platform mobile games. Just ask Robert Nay, a 14 year old who created Bubble Ball - downloaded three million times, famously knocking Angry Birds off the top spot. You don't need to be a programming veteran to create games using Corona. Corona SDK is the number one tool for creating fun, simple blockbuster games.
Assuming no experience at all with programming or game development you will learn the basic foundations of Lua and Corona right through to creating several monetized games deployable to Android and Apple stores.
You will begin with a crash course in Lua, the programming language underpinning the Corona SDK tool. After downloading and installing Corona and writing some simple code you will dive straight into game development. You will start by creating a simple breakout game with controls optimized for mobile. You will build on this by creating two more games incorporating different features such as falling physics. The book ends with a tutorial on social network integration, implementing in app purchase and most important of all monetizing and shipping your game to the Android and App stores.
You will learn by doing. First a brief crash course in Lua and Corona. Once this is done you will be thrown straight into creating fully functional complete games chapter by chapter. Certain chapters are reserved for adding advanced features such as multiple device integration, social networking and monetization.

Exploring the beauty of Nepal : Do-gooders call it Voluntourism
"What makes you come here?"
I entertained a surprising question while trying to justify my wanderlust for Nepal. The man asking this question was a retired army officer, looking at me through his black bordered big spectacles, trying to get hold of a young girl's motive in an estranged yet beautiful country! My companion, a Spanish expert high school drop-out long term friend Robina had been snoring till then in the bus we boarded to reach our destination.
I said as a matter of fact there is a book in which Jeff Rasley quoted "Y
ou have to get lost before you can be found
" in the thrill and awe of the high mountains which awaited exploration. Sure, one can have a fascination for the location especially for mountaineering or to volunteer depending upon various possibilities.
However, he seemed a bit unconvinced. I still continued 'I'm here to witness a landlocked country in South Asia, comprising of eight of the World's highest peaks,
being the most prominent. Located in the heart of the Himalayas, it attracts many monks and tourists in search of peace & beauty.' He smiled and said 'if you might have a look at Kathmandu, you'll like it'. I nodded.
We finally reached eastern Nepal, Khartuwa Village which overlooks a range of green hills and plantations. Robina wanted to read the newspaper in hand, somehow twisted and turned with the wind's subtle blow. I was walking all the way up to the cliff to grab a photograph when a group of cowherds caught my attention. Robina immediately set the newspaper aside and started asking them in local language 'hello, do you know where we can find a restaurant?' A boy clad in ripped brown dress replied 'nothing here' and walked off. Robina frowned and said 'Damn! he was so rude '. I smirked.
Nepal has a population of only 15% having electricity in their households and is often termed as the least developed countries in the World. Bridging the thin line between poverty and tourism, Nepal desperately needs volunteers as many thousands of children live on the streets and are engaged in physical work. We were very excited about incorporating 'mission health habits' among Nepalese children. Over the years, 'Voluntourism' was an alien word until some great adventurers from "ethical volunteering" team described it to the World in which people like us join in forces to make use of our free time. Our Camp was set in Marshyandi Valley which had breath taking glacier flows
We were scheduled to start off in a few days from the village.
Robina quenched her thirst of water after we reached a no-star fine-to-be-in hotel. Over the curtains, Bal Balika Primary school could be seen, the only school which was accessible in a 500-people village. Getting there was difficult as proper transportation was not available. Most of the villagers lived on agriculture and young women fetched water. I glanced through the window and noticed a beautiful child standing across the steel fence with red cheeks and sweet smile waving her hands towards me as a gesture to come up there and join her friends.
She looked timeless and she looked perfectly happy. If only I could clean her mud ridden face ….
I sighed. A hand stretched out to my shoulder while I looked back, it was Robina, smiling. The journey to Nepal ensured that the kids were taught the right mode of conduct. We were extremely satisfied and thankful to the Nepalese teachers and children for their warm co-operation and love.

The virtual home of Naomi Clark - Writer, werewolf aficionado, snake-charmer, Mega Shark fangirl
Thursday, 25 June 2015
Mega(lodon) News
Last Wednesday morning I crawled reluctantly out of bed after a pitiful amount of sleep feeling crotchety, exhausted, and under-appreciated by the Universe. And then I checked my phone for news headlines, as I always do first thing in the morning, and discovered that maybe the Universe isn't laughing at me after all.
The news? Steve Alten's 1997 bestseller, MEG, has been greenlit for production.
This...this probably doesn't matter to most people. But oh my goodness, it matters SO MUCH to me! I read MEG the year it was released. I read it a billion times (approximately). This was a hugely formative book for me. Before MEG, I was definitely a kid who was into dinosaurs and monsters anyway. After MEG I was a kid who was obsessed with sea monsters specifically.
Simply explained, MEG is about a 60 foot shark that eats everything she comes across, including one helicopter. It's a thriller and in some respects it's a fairly generic one. World weary hero/only living expert on megs? Check. Feisty love interest? Check! (They have zero chemistry, but who cares about romance when giant sharks are eating our helicopters anyway). Bitter bad guys? Check! Giant shark? CHECK, CHECK, CHECK. I mean, nothing else in this book matters. I loved learning about this prehistoric badass (the book opens with a meg eating a t-rex), and I adored the idea of an ocean full of secrets (in case you hadn't noticed).
I can't remember when I first heard about the possibility of a MEG film, but it was certainly long enough ago that Hollywood tried and failed at this kind of thing several times. Disney, originally attached to the project, dropped it after the unimpressive performance of DEEP BLUE SEA, allegedly. At one point I even assumed DEEP BLUE SEA was the MEG adaptation.
And then we got SHARKNADO, which is also awful and just...awful. No megalodons in that one, but shark films are undeniably back on the menu, even if they are just...awful.
And let's face it - we need a good shark film. JAWS created the summer blockbuster. It also created a lot of terrible myths about great white sharks (but if you want to help correct that, consider checking out The Shark Trust), but that's for another, much longer post. But since JAWS...has there really been a creature feature to live up to it? Not for me.
I desperately want MEG to get made and be awesome. As soon as I read the news article, I went and bought the original book for my Kindle and discovered a slew of sequels I'd never heard of. I re-read MEG in two days and fell in love all over again. The megalodon is just sheer perfection, frankly. She's giant, voracious, unpredictable, and she eats helicopters. The humans are probably fine too, but fuck the humans. You make creature feature films for the creatures.
And we're at a stage where a sixty foot albino shark is going to be no challenge for special effects teams, I think it's safe to say. Plus there's the bonus of JURASSIC WORLD being huge and amazing fun, which hopefully will crack the door open for more "big angry monster eats tiny people" films.
AND if the film gets made and is successful, we can have the sequel with two megalodons called Mary Kate and Ashley.
Think about that.

I think for me my love of big sea monsters came from movies like Warlords of Atlantis and 20,000 leagues Under the Sea. I would love to see more movies like that!ReplyDelete
Jaws is literally one of my favourite movies of all time, certainly in my top 10, probably even my top 5. I love it and used to buy a load of shark books when I was a kid. So big sharks? Bring it on!Replies
You should read Meg! It's utterly ridiculous, but it's really fun.Delete

It doesn't get much better than a hearty pot roast after a long, hard day of work on a chilly evening. Unwind while you dig into this savory dish. Yum!Ingredients:
- 2 lb boneless chuck roast
- 2 tbsp olive oil
- 3 large carrots, peeled and cut into bite-sized pieces
- 4 to 6 medium potatoes, peeled and cut into bite-sized pieces
- 1/2 c onion, chopped
- 2 cloves garlic, minced
- 1 c red wine
- 1 c beef broth
- 1 tbsp Worcestershire sauce
- 1 tbsp fresh rosemary, chopped
- 1/2 tsp dried basil
- 1/4 tsp dried marjoram
- 1 cinnamon stick
- Salt, to taste
- Pepper, to taste
Place the carrots, potatoes and onions in the bottom of the slow cooker and season with salt and pepper. Add the rosemary, basil, marjoram and cinnamon stick. Pour the beef broth and Worcestershire sauce over the vegetables.
Heat the olive oil in a large skillet over medium-high heat. Season the chuck roast generously with salt and pepper. Place the chuck roast into the hot skillet and brown on both sides, about 4 minutes. Place the roast in the slow cooker on top of the vegetables. Deglaze the pan by pouring the red wine in the hot skillet and scraping up the brown bits from the bottom. Allow the wine to reduce by half in the skillet. Add the garlic to the skillet, stirring and cooking for 30 seconds longer. Remove the skillet from the heat. Pour the contents of the skillet over the beef in the slow cooker.
Cover and cook on low for 8 to 10 hours, or on high for 4 to 5 hours. Remove the cinnamon stick.
Season with salt and pepper, to taste.

What got you into art?
I'm not sure I specifically remember a one-off event that sparked my interest. What I do remember is that, as a child, I loved to draw maps. It didn't matter the medium, the back of rolls of wallpaper always worked a treat. I used to draw maps of the world off by heart in reception - I still think this is the single thing I've done that my mother is proudest of...
Who is your favourite character to draw?
Anybody whose face has an interesting feature. It could be as obvious as a moustache or a scar, or something a little more subtle, like a slightly asymmetric nose. Anything that makes their face distinctive, and thus more interesting to draw. As a kid I also loved to draw Spider-Man, there was something very therapeutic about absent-mindedly filling in the webbing on his costume.
What do you hate drawing?
I don't hate drawing them, in part because I never choose to and so avoid the frustration, but I've always been terrible at drawing bicycles, especially if I don't have a reference photo in front of me.
Favourite artists?
From a more traditional point of view, and as cliché as it might be, I love van Gogh: the portraits the landscapes, the still lifes, everything. I also have a bit of a singular obsession with André Derain's portrait of Henri Matisse. I don't know why, I think it's a combination of the colour and the brush strokes. There's something about it.
From a geekier perspective, Dave Gibbons' pencils and John Higgins' colours in the original Watchmen graphic novel are hard to beat. I also grew up on a steady diet of John Romita Jr., and it was his depiction of Spider-Man in the late 1990s (especially any issues involving Morbius - easily the most under-rated comic book villain of all time) that really catalysed my love of comic book art.
Which media do you use?
Almost exclusively pencils, though this is perhaps more a result of time limitations than any actual preference. I'd love to branch out, maybe even try digital media, but it's a time investment I just can't make right now!
When you're drawing, what do you put on in the background?
The news. I always follow both US and UK politics very closely, and especially right now, in the midst of the US Presidential Election, it's been non-stop. I also find it a little less distracting than music, which I find myself wanting to sing / dance to. This makes drawing somewhat more difficult... No such temptation with the news!
What's your greatest achievement?
When I lived abroad I was commissioned to design the logo for a Warsaw-based language school, which they still use to this day. That's my greatest achievement artistically, which is not all that much, truth be told. Most / all of my achievements lie outside the world of art!
What would you say to any aspiring artists?
I'm not sure I'm in much of a position to give advice (still being very much 'aspiring' myself), but as with all things, practise!
Do you have any projects lined up?
I'm just planning on drawing whenever I find the time! For ages now I've been planning on doing a series of drawings on dinosaurs (an ill-fated attempt to connect with a now long lost youth...) so hopefully that. It's not something I've drawn for almost two decades, so we'll see how it goes.
Marvel or DC?
Marvel by a landslide. I am still waiting for DC to get their act together on the big screen (though I might be the only person ever to actually really enjoy the Green Lantern film).
Chocolate or vanilla?
Chocolate, except when it comes to yoghurt. Then definitely vanilla.
Captain America or Iron Man?
Finally, if you could take any character and draw them in a new comic or art-piece, who would it be, and why?
I think the world is ready for a Silmarillion graphic novel. Trying to depict Eru Ilúvatar would certainly be a challenge, and it would be fun to draw Fëanor at work, forging the three Silmarils. Lots of scope for creativity!

A burglar who targeted his neighbour's flat was caught after he left a trail of floury footprints from the scene of the crime right to his own front door.
Anthony Rudkin, 48, of Weston-super-Mare, Somerset, was jailed on Friday for two years and five months at Bristol Crown Court after pleading guilty to the burglary on 11 October last year.
When his neighbour came home from work he discovered a large bag of flour had been spilt all over the hallway carpet.
Whoever had ransacked his home had walked right through it.
Police attended and followed the trail of flour to the door of Rudkin's address.
After knocking on Rudkin's door, they then discovered more flour along with a pair of gloves and trainers with the same sole pattern as that left in the flour.
PC Dave Cousins said: "Some investigations are incredibly complex and require some thorough and intelligent police work.
However, in this case the actions of the victim and the attending officers resulted in Rudkin's quick arrest and seizure of key evidence.
Rudkin thought he was being clever by using gloves to cover his tracks but failed to realise he had trodden in flour and led us straight to his front door."

Welcome to Part 2 of Meandering through the Midlands. In Part 1 I covered what we did on the Monday and Tuesday and now you will find out what we did and where we went for the rest of the week.
Wednesday started the usual way by waking up early to watch the sunrise over the valley and then we had breakfast and got ready to go. I drove the usual route into Mooi River and then along the old main road through to Nottingham Road. The first place we went to was Lilac Crane and it is very close to the bridge on Nottingham Road. The shop is filled with local arts and crafts and I found a beautiful necklace with the pendant made from a vintage ceramic plate and a handmade coconut coffee soap. I really wanted to buy a dish cloth with a coffee design printed on it. Unfortunately it was a bit too expensive.
|Lilac Crane
We hadn't chosen the next place to visit as we had decided to just take a slow drive and see what caught our eye. A sign with "The Shed – crafts and coffee" looked interesting so we turned off the road and drove up and over the railway tracks. My Mom chatted to the owner and discovered the building was a former chicken shed which they had now converted into a coffee and craft shop. A lot of the crafts for sale had been created by the owner and they were so well made. The train track was very close to the building and we saw 2 trains go by while we were there.
|The Shed
Our next stop was suggested by Carryn as it is one of her favourite places to go to when she visits the Midlands Meander – Peter's Gate Herbal Centre. We decided to look around the shop first before ordering tea. I bought a wonderful smelling lavender room spray and a cream that can be used on pets when they injure themselves. Carryn and I felt like having Rooibos tea and we really enjoyed the Laager Citrus & Ginger Rooibos tea that we were offered. Mom had her usual Five Roses tea. There was a cool breeze blowing but we enjoyed sitting on the veranda in the warm morning sun. In fact we found it very difficult to leave, but our tummies helped a lot by reminding us that it was nearly lunch time.
|Peter's Gate Herbal Centre
We had decided on Caversham Mill as our lunch stop, but we first planned to look at the menu before a final decision was made. More dirt roads to drive on to get there but fortunately they were not teeth rattling and there was nice scenery. Ardmore is very close to Caversham Mill, practically a neighbour and we decided to go and see them after lunch – don't forget the tummies were rumbling. The restaurant can only be reached by driving over a single lane bridge but there was no one around when I got there. Caversham Mill is not cheap but we were too hungry to go and find somewhere else to have lunch and the menu had delicious sounding items on it.
I am very pleased to say the servings were a very good size and the pot pie that I chose was delicious. The pie that day was chicken and mushroom and it came with vegetables and mashed potato. Carryn had soup with homemade bread and Mom had quiche and vegetables. Of course we had looked at the desserts before ordering our lunch and Crème Brulee was on it! So I'm sure you can guess what Carryn and I ordered. It was relaxing watching and listening to the water flow. Lots of old photos are on the walls showing what the mill used to look like and you can read its history as well. The mill wheel was washed away in a big flood many years ago. Definitely a place for a return visit.
|Caversham Mill
After our delicious lunch we drove up the road to go and look at Ardmore. I'm sure you have heard and know all about Ardmore, but just in case let me tell you. Ardmore Ceramic Art was formed over 25 years ago and about 40 artists collaborate under the mentorship of the award winning founder, Fee Halstead. They create pieces that feature in fine art collections and exhibitions around the world. All I can stay is WOW! The intricate work, the animals and the sheer size of some of the ceramic pieces. It is part museum (dedicated to those artists who have died), part gallery and part showroom. The only problem is that you need very deep pockets or a strong credit card in order to buy one of the ceramic pieces. So we enjoyed looking and taking lots of photos.
On Thursday we decided to stay close to home base as I had done a lot of driving and we also wanted to spend some time doing more walking around Midlands Saddle & Trout. First on the list was the all important tea and scones that are served at 10am outside the restaurant. Oh my they were yummy – topped with just the right amount of jam and cream. Quite a few people came to sit in the warm morning sun and enjoy their tea and most stayed to play Bingo. We took a walk over to the Spa once we were done as we wanted to smell the perfumes they sell there and then checked what the night's activities were on the board by reception. Carryn and I decided that we would go for the marshmallow braai at 6pm. We then walked back to our unit so that we could get the car and go to the first of two places that we were visiting that day.
|Midlands Saddle and Trout
Remember in Part One where I mentioned that we had passed a fascinating church on the way into Mooi River? I had Googled and found the website and then emailed the owners to ask if we could visit and received a reply in the affirmative. I just needed to phone the caretaker and arrange a time. It was arranged for Thursday and we just needed to go and look before 12pm as guests would be arriving later. Guests? Guests in a church? Yes because this was no longer a church but a self catering guesthouse called St. Andrew's Retreat.
We drove through the original stone entrance and parked close to the added under covered parking with a building on top. We discovered later that this was another room and bathroom. The caretaker met us and said we were welcome to look inside, in fact everywhere. I had thought that we would just be looking around the outside of the building and was thrilled that we could see what they had done inside. It was amazing! The original stain glass windows and even the baptism font are still there while the stone pulpit hides a gas heater. There are 3 bedrooms inside the converted church and all have double beds and an en-suite bathroom. Two bedrooms are on the ground floor and the 3rd bedroom has been added above them. There are the most beautiful views over the garden and beyond from the windows of the 3rd bedroom and it is definitely the most luxurious. There is a fully fitted kitchen with a gas stove, two lounges and a dining room. All areas except the bedrooms are open plan. The church was built in 1906 and the owners have taken great care to keep original features and create a warm welcoming place to stay.
|St. Andrew's Retreat interior
It was wonderful to walk around the beautifully layed out and maintained garden. A great place to sit and reflect on the beauty of the building and garden is under the lush arbour. After looking around the garden we took a look at the bedroom car port extension. It has a beautiful bedroom, bathroom and small lounge to relax in. St. Andrew's Retreat is definitely a place I would love to return to and stay at.
|St. Andrew's Retreat exterior
After visiting St. Andrews Retreat we drove to Lords of the Manor which is next door to Midlands Saddle & Trout, it actually shares a boundary fence. Lords of the Manor was at one time called Oatesdale and was the home of the Oates family. My Father's uncle married Muriel Oates and Dad stayed at Oatsdale when he was a little boy. The house had no electricity at that time and Dad had to climb the scary creaky stairs holding a candle. I'm pleased to say that is not the case now.
|Lords of the Manor
We were very warmly welcomed and shown into the small lounge area and our order taken for cappuccinos (Carryn and I) and tea (Mom). They serve Terbodore coffee. While we were waiting the general manager Max Youngleson came to greet us and Mom asked if we could go up the stairs to see the upper level. Well it was even better than that as we were given a guided tour by a member of staff and even the owner of Lords of the Manor chatted to us. We were shown a family suite, classic suite and an executive suite which contains an original fireplace. A joy to see another beautiful old stone building.
After Lords of the Manor it was back home to our cosy unit at Midlands Saddle & Trout. We had lunch and sat on the comfortable couch with blankets and watched a movie. Carryn and I decided to take a walk down to the trout dam and we were very surprised to discover how the weather had changed. A very cold wind was blowing and it had become very cloudy. It was a very "refreshing" walk and we watched while 2 brave fly fisherman tried to catch trout. After taking a few photos we headed back to the warmth of the unit. After supper Carryn and I ventured out again - this time over to the bonfire area as we wanted to attend the marshmallow braai. Unfortunately they did not have enough people wanting to attend the braai so it was not happening. We were very sad as we had a craving for braaied marshmallows. A staff member told us to go and ask for some marshmallows at the restaurant. We did just that and were given enough to chase away the craving. The restaurant has been beautifully re-decorated and Carryn and spent quite a long time trying to get the perfect photo of their lighting. Then it was back to the unit and I started the fire so we could have our braaied marshmallows.
After another great night's sleep we had to pack up and check out. It was quick and easy as I handed over the keys to the unit and we received a drive safely pack that contained small bottles of water for our journey. I drove out slowly so we could see the horses one last time. Midlands Saddle & Trout you were fabulous!
Just in case you think that the adventures were over – nope you would be wrong! We were driving into Mooi River to get onto the freeway when I heard a strange noise from the back of the car. I put my hazards on and slowly pulled over to the side of the road. At the same time a man in an Audi pulled up next to me. I wound down my window and asked him if it was my tyre and he said it was the back right. He asked if I could manage and I said I would not be able to. What a blessing to have someone right there when my tyre went flat. We had a chat as he changed my tyre and he said he worked at Hartford House and we told him about our lovely time there. It turned out that the man who stopped and changed my tyre was the Executive Chef Constantijn Hahndiek! We all thanked him profusely and gave him a hug. I then drove slowly into Mooi River to get the changed tyre pumped and we headed to Howick.
Howick and not home? Yip we had to end off our meandering adventures by stopping at ALL the charity shops in Howick and with coffee at the new Treatery at Yard41. A fitting end to our meandering through the Midlands adventures.
|The Treatery at Yard41
I know that I didn't mention picking up the keys at Midlands Saddle & Trout and that is because my family (husband and kids) and I went up on Saturday 3 June to fetch them and take a look at the unit. My daughter Laura and I took the opportunity to have an hour long horse ride. We rode very spirited horses and had a fabulous time. I have never seen so many horses at a resort before and I did confirm that all the horses belong to them. We had lunch in the restaurant (delicious curry, burgers and toasted sandwiches) and I was thrilled to discover that the coffee they serve is supplied by Skyline Coffee Roasters.

Yes this is the end!!

Too many young sparks
Shedding their petals
Peeling their true skins
Laying bare in the dark
How foolish can men be?
We are all clad in gold
We are all covered in supernatural coats
Yet some of us scrape our casing
Despite how almost impossible it is
They've created extreme possibilities
They sell their priceless coats to the desperate buyer
He who lurks with coins in his palms
So foolish they are
Wisdom is divine
Foolishness is cheap
Stupidity is common
And ignorance is dangerous
Stop fooling yourselves and see your true origin
The biggest secret is:
"It can't be bought"
You can only be fooled
He who creates gold or diamonds can't be the same person who'll create cheap plastic
Gold still remains gold no matter what
Stop fooling yourselves and wake up!
The greatest mortal tool you have is your mind and it can't be duplicated
But it can be manipulated
Pour the water of sanctity on yourselves and wake up
Self-deceit is a crime!

- Closure: Cork
A remarkable wine given that it is only the first vintage from 3 year old vines. To achieve such excellent concentration of colour and flavour the vines were cropped at less than half a tonne per acre.Totally opaque purple crimson colour, quite magnificent. Concentrated mouthfilling palate. Flavours of blackberry, spice, liquorice and blackpepper abound. Very fine, very firm, yet well balanced tannins, followed by long spicy, inky, blackberry aftertaste. Cellar 3-5 years.

Get the Gringo (2012)
I didn't really expect much from Get the Gringo, but it definitely surprised me, that's for sure. Get the Gringo is a well made, and satisfying action drama that keeps you interested the whole experience. I have to say I liked Mel despite his unbecoming reputation as of late, he pushes past this to create his typically hardened-but-humorous, likable character. What really prevents the movie from being better is a more a depthy plot, in that regard it was a bit like Drive in a Mexican Prison (though not as well executed, where Drive didn't need the extra depth, GTG suffered from not having it.)
7/10 - All in all, I would definitely recommend Get the Gringo. It's a small scale movie, and it definitely has its flaws, but a likable lead, good performances and an interesting (but simple) enough premise drive this well crafted film to the finish line. It won't be winning any awards, but it's still a good watch.

I get bored of my walls quite a bit, and I lie awake at night thinking of ways of redecorating them, and this was one of them! The idea is that each of the words are things that you feel (in a loose sense of the word), so you could have different words if you want, i.e. music counts as a feeling to me, because I can't explain it any other way. :)
Once again, feel free to use this as inspiration and change anything you like :)
How to/Tutorial:
What you need:
-White card (I used speech cards so they were pre cut)
-A pencil
-Two felt pens in gold and silver
1. Gather your materials and decide what words you are going to use. I made a list over a couple of weeks so I didn't miss any good ones.
2. Write your words on the cards in pencil, firstly so that you can lay out all of your cards and decide where the words will go as well as the pattern you want the colours to go in (I did the colours radiating outwards from the centre). Secondly use the pencil because, well, we all make mistakes.
3. Blue-tack them to the wall. I just did this by eye, because it looked good to me and I'm the one who's going to be looking at it. :)
So I hope you are having a fun week, I am stressing out because exams start in 2 and a half weeks!!! The actual ones this time.

The intellectual interests of EAPS encompass the earth, its fluid envelopes, and its diverse neighbors throughout the solar system. We seek to understand the fundamental processes defining the origin, evolution, and current states of these systems and to use this understanding to predict the future. The scope of our research and teaching is immense, ranging from the inaccessible depths of the terrestrial interior outward to the orbit of Pluto, and beyond. The objects and systems we study are tangible or visible to the general public and, as exemplified by climate and natural resources, are sometimes central to societal goals.
The phenomena under investigation are often vexingly complex, and they engage a large array of scientific disciplines: Geology, Geophysics, Geochemistry, Geobiology, Physical and Chemical Oceanography, Meteorology, Atmospheric Chemistry, and Planetary Science. EAPS operates world-class research and graduate educational programs in all of these disciplines, which makes it unique among earth and planetary science departments both nationally and internationally. Our undergraduate program offers options to study environmental science, geoscience, physics of the atmospheres and oceans, and planetary science and astronomy. The department takes pride in the fact that EAPS undergraduate students become actively involved in our research projects.

Nick and I enjoyed dying eggs our own chickens laid for Easter. It was interesting to see how the dye made certain imperfections in each egg stand out. Our chickens lay delicious eggs, but they are hardly ever the perfect shape you find in stores. I love seeing the odd shapes we get sometimes. Every once in a while, we get a super oval egg instead of the slightly more pear shapes you commonly see.
When we were ready to dye, we had saved up ten eggs, so that is how many we hard boiled and played with. We had three normal dyes and three "marble" dyes. To turn a dye into a marbling dye, you just need to add a tiny bit of canola oil to the dye.
I think it was quite fitting that we used our chicken mugs to dye our chicken eggs.
Here was our little setup. You just can't dye Easter eggs without a little "Running Man" going on in the background. Can't beat Arnold with a beard.
I hope you are all having an amazing Easter weekend and get to do something fun and colorful as well!
