Cheaper By The Dozen Auditions
Auditions for the ACT Youth Wing production of Cheaper by the Dozen directed by JC Crider will be held on Sunday, December 2nd at 3pm and Monday, December 3rd at 7pm. Based on the real-life family of Frank and Lillian Gilbreth, Cheaper by the Dozen is a classic dramatic comedy about a family of 14, and we will be casting Youth Wingers from 4th grade through 12th grade for the various roles. Older Youth Wingers will be considered for the adult and older teen roles, while younger Youth Wingers will be considered for the younger child roles, but there could be some flexibility with the age ranges for the younger kids. Auditions will consist of cold readings from the script. Show dates are Feb 15, 16, 17, 22, 23. Role breakdown is as follows:
Mr. Gilbreth – Father of the family, a highly accomplished and incredibly intelligent industrial engineer who tests his theories on efficiency out on his family and runs the house like a company. Pushes his children to be the smartest kids in their class, and they are. Often arrogant, but pushes his family to be as efficient as possible because he's running out of time himself – he is hiding a heart condition from his family that ultimately will take his life.
Anne – Oldest daughter, smartest kid in her class but sick of how her Dad is running the family. Wants to have a normal social life and date boys like the rest of the girls in her school. Rebels against Dad by wearing silk stockings and going on dates. Older teenager.
Ernestine –Looks to Anne to break Dad's grip on the family. Also acts as the future narrator, looking back on the events of the past with Frank. Teenager.
Frank – Oldest son, also acts as a narrator by looking back on the events of the past with Ernestine. Teenager.
Mrs. Gilbreth – Mother of the family. Also a highly accomplished industrial engineer, but not obsessed with pushing their family to the extreme. Patiently puts up with Mr. Gilbreth's antics but tries to get him to calm down and enjoy the time left he has with his family. A good balance to Mr. Gilbreth, she is kind and supportive of both her husband and Anne's desire for freedom.
Martha –Looks to Anne to break Dad's grip on the family. Teenager.
Bill –Loves embarrassing Anne in front of her dates. Young teenager or older child.
Lillian – Youngest daughter. Smart and curious. Child.
Fred –Smart but rambunctious, cons his dad into buying a dog. Child.
Dan –Also smart but rambunctious. Child.
Jackie – Youngest of the bunch. Child.
Miss Brill – Woman from the school district sent to test the kids. Not impressed by the Gilbreth family, would love to see the kids fail the test. Antagonist of the story.
Joe Scales – A boy from Anne's school and a cocky cheerleader. Middle to older teenager.
Larry – Another boy who Anne's school, the real love interest. Middle to older teenager.
Mrs Fitzgerald – Overworked housekeeper of the family.
Dr. Burton – The family doctor.

Sometime it is as important when to make a decision as the decision itself. If you are thinking about adding to or changing your production capabilities, here is some information that may help answer that first question.
We are told that the new tax law offers some strong incentives to
write off 100% of used equipment under $100,000 in the first year.
For equipment over $100,000 you can write off 50% the first year
and the remaining 50% under standard depreciation guidelines. Please check with your CPA or Tax Lawyer for details.
Sales tax savings + tax write off savings + repossessed and used equipment price savings = Good timing to make that purchase from Repos4resale.

Meaningful occupations of infant and child development were historically based in the imitation of adults who practiced daily routine, ritual and brain patterning solely based upon knowledge of, and integration with, patterns of nature.
The lesson's of these deeply rooted occupations are written into the developmental codes of our DNA.
Survival depended on an integrated knowledge of patterns in nature. Reading animal tracks ensured our survival. Differentiating between a medicinal plant and a poison "look alike" ensured our survival. Reading these patterns in nature wired the brains we have today. These patterns were our earliest primers for reading symbols on a page. Tracks became stories. Animal tracks tell a story. Our brains are hard wired to make sense of marks in the dirt, paintings on a canyon wall, scribbles on paper...
Because of this ancestral patterning; our brains want a story.
Survival also depended on recognizing patterns in sound. Certain patterns, such as bird language warned when predators were near, when weather was imminent, and when all was well. The nuances of sound developed our auditory processing systems to become highly attuned to subtleties present in every moment. Nature sounds engineered our current neurological listening operating systems.
Our trainings teach how to use the patterns of nature, to wire our original operating (neurological) systems for development, connection, habilitation and rehabilitation. We help people remember how to tap into ancient connective processes and become "optimized" humans.
8 Principles of Foundations IN Nature
1 - Human's are wired to survive. Humans live with a survival bias.
2 - Connection Matters. To environment, self, others.
3 - Shared context provides meaning.
#4- Our neurological systems have been shaped by the patterns and forms of nature.
#5 - Nature affords for all developmental opportunities and provides for shared context.
#6 - The architecture of the human brain requires active whole systems engagement to reach it's full potential.
#7 - The assessment of risk/consequence/benefit must be consciously employed.
#8 - Using the wisdom of the past to inform the future, will lead to a better tomorrow.
Practices of Foundations IN Nature
#1- Connection Modeling.
#2- Core Routines of Nature Awareness.
#3- Core Routines of Nature Connection.
#4- Story Catching and Reflective Questioning.
#5- Creating Contextual Learning.
#6- Skillful Use of Technoloby

So We Have A Picky Eater
This post was sponsored by Once Upon a Farm. As always, all thoughts and opinions are my own.
Ok, let's talk mealtime. When I get asked what stresses me out the most about motherhood, the first thought that comes to mind is Winter's picky eating habits. I have cried, lost sleep and put a lot of blame on myself because my child will literally eat ten things despite all of our efforts.
We did baby led weaning, and in the beginning, Winter would eat anything we put in front of her from avocado to sweet potato, roasted chicken and more. Right when she was around 15 months, she became almost impossible to feed and so picky. We've tried hiding food like squash in her quesadillas, pea puree in her mac and cheese and making smoothies and popsicles. Though the pea puree with her noodles has been a success, with all other attempts she always detects our trickery and then the entire meal goes out the window. If you are a parent of a picky eater, then you know how frustrating mealtime can be.
I recently discovered Once Upon a Farm at my local Sprouts store, which specializes in organic, cold-pressed baby food blends. I am so thankful that Winter loves these delicious blends as much as I love what's inside each pouch, so I am really excited to partner with this new company (how cute is that name?) to keep my picky eater satisfied.
How is Once Upon a Farm different? These pouches are not-shelf stable, they are cold-pressed, meaning they need to be refrigerated. What I like about refrigeration, is that you know that their ingredients are close to homemade as it gets, without making it yourself (like who has time for that?!). And they last up to three months in your fridge from the time you purchase. Oh, and the one thing I was skeptical about was that because they need to be refrigerated, I was worried that I couldn't pack them on the go. But you can have them at room temperature for 4 hours or so before they need to be eaten, or refrigerated. So you can certainly take them with you for your little outings.
These pouches are so sophisticated, meaning I feel like I hit the nutritional jackpot when Winter eats one. Her favorite flavor is Mama Bear Blueberry which has organic apple, organic sweet potato, organic blueberry and organic extra virgin coconut oil. You don't even see many blue topped pouches in the photos because Winter literally devoured them all!
You guys, their website is so well done. For each pouch they explain why the ingredients that are in them are good for your little ones. I have learned a lot about nutrition just by reading their website. For example, did you know that coconut oil has some of the same fatty acids as breast milk? Who knew!? These acids help deepen the vitamin intake and keep the immune system nice and strong. Plus, each pouch is blended with ingredients like chia seeds & coconut milk. Did I mention how good I feel about feeding her these?
If you get a chance you should read up on the farms they use to grow the produce you find in the pouches. Every ingredient is sustainably grown, certified USDA Organic, Non-GMO Project Verified, and can be traced right back to the source.
I feel like I can breathe a little more comfortable with these pouches in the house because I know Winter is getting introduced to new foods and getting the nutrition that she needs to keep growing up healthy and active. Once Upon a Farm has many different pouch options including cold-pressed baby food (stages 1, 2 & 3), toddler blends, applesauce and smoothies. Their products can be found at retailers like Sprouts nationwide or online. Check out the store location on their website to find where Once Upon a Farm is sold near you.

My First VLOG →
This is it! I've been wanting to do this since 2004, and I have no idea why it took this long. Let me advise you; this is the VERY first, rough cut and who knows what I'm going to do with it, but please endulge me. I'd love to keep this up and have conversations along the way. Cheers!
Once again, thanks to Mr. John Saddington for being the motivation to finally get around to do this. Follow him on his journey and his blog. And look, it's 23:30 and I was able to to push this out before midnight!

The last decade has seen a massive improvement in the accessibility of data, enabling numerous generations of technology to move forward and help in various decision-making of global business heads. Big Data has now become a huge part of business intelligence. Companies both large and small are always on the lookout for new research tools that will help improve their utilization of Big Data. 2019 is going to be a year where there will be many trends that will impact the global economy to a great extent. Here are some of the Big Data trends that you need to keep an eye on in 2019:
It will be a race among the top tech giants such as Google, IBM, Intel, and Microsoft to build the first ever quantum computer. This will enable unlimited weather prediction, improve data encryption, and assist in better financial modeling, among other things. Experts are of the opinion that it is going to be the biggest Big Data trend that everyone should be aware of in 2019. Organizations will be able to develop multiple quantum computing components, software tools and applications, and algorithms based on the Big Data cloud services.
Cross-sell opportunities and customer response has become two main factors that are driving companies forward. Big Data and predictive analytics have played a crucial role here because both these technologies have helped in the integration of several domains such as retailing, automotive, cryptocurrency, pharmaceuticals, hospitality, manufacturing, healthcare, and finance industries. One of the most interesting applications is seen in the world of cryptocurrencies, with trading platforms like Crypto Code using predictive analytics to help investors get an idea of how the market is going to play.
Artificial Intelligence will continue to rule the tech world just like it did in 2018, but the emphasis will be on how different AI platforms use and process Big Data to improve efficiency and speed up the gathering of business intelligence. The connection between Big Data and the different layers of AI platforms such as The Experience Layer, The Intelligence Layer, The Operations & Deployment Layer, The Experimentation Layer, and The Data & Integration Layer will play a significant role in automating time-consuming tasks as well as simplifying sophisticated processes. There is a focus on how AI platforms perform time-consuming activities like data processing and data copying because that will involve a major portion of Big Data.
Both hybrid clouds and clouds will continue to soar high in 2019. Hybrid clouds and Big Data have made data storage inexpensive for companies. That trend will continue with hybrid clouds preparing to provide a more customized setup for companies so that they can store data more safely than before.
2019 proves to be an exciting year for Big Data and its impact on various technologies. Any company that strives to be an industry leader should take note of these trends and find ways to utilize them to gain a competitive advantage.

Are quest for Hm's is still as present as ever none of us expect to get server first as we do not have the massive time needed to do so , but we so want to experience all current content while it still presents a ounce of difficulty.
Thank You again for considering us, Stinkylight-Holy Pally-Zul'jin Horde

A Sampling of Past Workshops:
"Yoga to Enhance Intimate Relationships"
Sunday October 28th, 2018 2-4pm
at Kula Yoga $40
As humans we are here on earth to learn what love is.
We are wired for intimacy... in our heart of hearts it is what we ultimately crave.
Yet it can evade so many of us.
Join Dr. Rachel Allyn and special guest teacher Larry Thraen from Houston for a provocative conversation and embodied practice in which we come home to our most tender self, the self that wants to give and receive love and feel the courage to express vulnerability, because it is the portal to deep connection.
Expand in your mind as well as the fluidity of your body during this 2 hour workshop, open to all genders, all bodies and all levels of yoga experience. Liberate yourself from old storylines around masculinity and femininity and reconnect to your subtle-body energy, the chakras.
We will blend education, discussion, yoga and meditation and bring awareness to the barriers that prevent you from experiencing a fully intimate life.
"The Pleasure Is All Mine:
Embody Your Sexual Vitality"
Thursday, October 25th, 2018 from
7 - 8:30pm $35
at mXe movement studio in Minneapolis
Yes the pleasure is all YOURS. ALL of it.
Because you DESERVE it!
AND (contrary to what you may have been taught)
pleasure is not an indulgence.
Lacking pleasure, and the building blocks of pleasure — connection to your body, your sensuality,
your ability to feel presence and cultivate a sense of play — is a public health issue.
The consequences of depriving yourself this natural human emotion include
everything from being disconnected emotionally to physical inflammation,
addiction, mood disorders and more.
Let's face it, as a woman you are a rockstar at being nurturing to others.
But you neglect yourself too often.
Pleasure is one breath, one heartbeat, one touch away, it just needs you to reclaim it.
(And the bonus is that everyone around you benefits as well.)
This gathering turns the spotlight on helping you find freedom from guilt,
shame or avoidance of the pleasure you deserve.
In this women's-only gathering
we'll look at the reasons why it's so hard to give yourself pleasure
— whether it be a piece of chocolate or an orgasm —
and mind-body tools to reconnect you to pleasure in your body, and in the bedroom.
{Includes bubbly, chocolate and a surprise take home gift!}
Imagine growing up in a sex positive household — a place where your parents talked naturally and openly about your body, sensuality and sexuality. A place where you learned the actual names for your genitals instead of calling them "private parts." A place where you were encouraged to be curious and fascinated in your body, just the way it is. Imagine receiving sex education in school at an appropriate age (as opposed to not at all, or when you were far too old) about the joys and pleasures of physical intimacy and sex, rather than it being fear-based, scaring the heck out of you and leading to guilt, shame or denial of your natural, beautiful, omnipotent sexual self!
Join me as I engage us in a conversation around cultivating a fresh start to your sexual self-care. Because it's never too late to embody an attitude that recognizes it's your birthright to receive pleasure....an attitude believing that sexual health is a fundamental part of your overall wellbeing, and an appreciation for how your sexual energy inspires creativity, connection and vitality. Together we'll integrate education and discussion, including answering all of your juiciest questions about your body, sex, and intimacy.
The dark days of winter can be challenging for many of us. Perhaps your spirit drains, you become less active, and you're less compassionate with yourself about how to manage. This workshop will explore tools to survive and thrive in the winter by blending yoga, breathing, mindfulness, and neuroscience. $40

Allow the yoga mat to be a place to explore and find peace in your relationship with food and your body. We'll learn how to tolerate and manage our emotions to prevent turning to food to numb or distract. Through conscious and intuitive eating habits we will find ways to optimize mental and physical energy and maintain a balanced mood. Our focus is on breaking the stress/food cycle, becoming more mindful and "attention-full" with eating, and learning ways to use the body as a resource for understanding the emotional cycle as it relates to behaviors around food. This series combines education in neuroscience, buddhist psychology, yoga and breathing exercises to address the issue holistically. *Worksheets and personalized e-coaching in between sessions are provided.

To George Washington from Richard Henry Lee, 1 August 1775
From Richard Henry Lee
Philadelphia 1st August 1775
Dear Sir,
After the fatigue of many days, and of this in particular, I should not sit down at eleven oClock at night to write to a Gentleman of whose goodness of heart I have less doubt than I have of yours. But well knowing that you will pardon what flows from good intentions, I venture to say that my hopes are, you will find from what the Congress has already done, and from what I hope they will do tomorrow,1 that it has been a capital object with us to make your arduous business as easy to you as the nature of things will admit. The business immediately before us being finished, the approaching sickly season here, and the great importance of our presence in the Virga Convention,2 have determined a recess of a Month, it standing now, that the Congress shall meet here again on the 5th of September. The capital object of powder we have attended to as far as we could by sending you the other day six Tons, and tomorrow we shall propose sending six or eight Tons more, which, with the supplies you may get from Connecticut, and such further ones from here, as future expected importations may furnish, will I hope enable you to do all that this powerful article can in good hands accomplish.3 We understand here that Batteries may be constructed at the entrance of the Bay of Boston so as to prevent the egress & regress of any Ships whatever. If this be fact, would it not Sir be a signal stroke to secure the Fleet & Army in and before Boston so as to compel a surrender at discretion. While I write this, I assure you my heart is elated with the contemplation of so great an event. A decisive thing, that would at once end the War, and vindicate the injured liberties of America. But your judgment and that of your brave Associates, will best determine the practicability of this business.4 I think we have taken the most effectual measures to secure the friendship of the Indians all along our extensive frontiers, and by what we learn of the Spirit of our Convention now sitting at Richmond, a Spirit prevails there very sufficient to secure us on that quarter—The particulars of their conduct I refer you to Mr Frazer for, who comes fresh from thence, & who goes to the Camp a Soldier of fortune—You know him better than I do, and I am sure you will provide for him as he deserves.
We are here as much in the dark about news from England as you are, the London Ships having been detained long beyond the time they were expected. The indistinct accounts we have, tell us of great confusion all over England, and a prodigious fall of the Stocks. I heartily wish it may be true, but if it is not so now, I have no doubt of its shortly being the case.
I will not detain you longer from more important affairs, than to beg the favor of you, when your leisure permits, to oblige me with a line by Post, to let us know how you go on.
There is nothing I wish so much as your success, happiness, and safe return to your family and Country, because I am with perfect sincerity dear Sir Your Affectionate friend and countryman
Richard Henry Lee
1. Although Congress's official journal indicates that the recess began on 1 Aug., the letters and diaries of several delegates confirm that Congress met and adjourned the following day (JCC description begins Worthington Chauncey Ford et al., eds. Journals of the Continental Congress, 1774-1789. 34 vols. Washington, D.C., 1904–37. description ends , 2:239; Smith, Letters of Delegates description begins Paul H. Smith et al., eds. Letters of Delegates to Congress, 1774–1789. 26 vols. Washington, D.C., 1976–2000. description ends , 1:694–95).
2. The third Virginia convention met from 17 July to 26 Aug. 1775.
3. On 25 July Congress, learning that about six and a half tons of gunpowder had arrived in Philadelphia, ordered the Pennsylvania delegates "to have it sent under a safe convoy with all possible despatch to Genl Washington at the Camp before Boston" (JCC description begins Worthington Chauncey Ford et al., eds. Journals of the Continental Congress, 1774-1789. 34 vols. Washington, D.C., 1904–37. description ends , 2:204). The second shipment of gunpowder contained 5 tons. According to JCC description begins Worthington Chauncey Ford et al., eds. Journals of the Continental Congress, 1774-1789. 34 vols. Washington, D.C., 1904–37. description ends , 2:238, Congress ordered that supply sent to GW on 1 Aug., but it probably happened the following day as Lee says here (see note 1). For another account of the sending of this gunpowder, see Jonathan Trumbull, Sr., to GW, 8 Aug. 1775, n.3.
4. The blockading of Boston Harbor was a favorite project of Josiah Quincy, Sr., who lived on the shore of the harbor near Squantum Neck. "Had we a sufficient Supply of Powder and battering Cannon," Quincy wrote to John Adams on 11 July 1775, "such is the Spirit and Intrepidity of our brave Countrymen, we should very soon, and with little or no Hazard, lock up the Harbor and make both Seamen and Soldiers our prisoners at Discretion" (Taylor, Papers of John Adams description begins Robert J. Taylor et al., eds. Papers of John Adams. 17 vols. to date. Cambridge, Mass., and London, 1977–. description ends , 3:73–77). Adams replied to Quincy on 29 July: "I have a great opinion of your knowledge, and judgment, from long experience, concerning the channels and islands in Boston harbour; but I must confess your opinion that the harbour might be blocked up, and seamen and soldiers made prisoners, at discretion, was too bold and enterprising for me, who am not apt to startle at a daring proposal" (ibid., 104–6). Quincy made a more detailed suggestion for blockading the harbor in a letter to GW of 31 Oct. 1775, but GW did not think the scheme a practical one. See GW to Quincy, 4 Nov. 1775. For GW's rejection of a similar proposal by Joseph Palmer, see GW to Palmer, 22 Aug. 1775.

Mirror's Edge
developed by EA DICE
Video game
Cast as a messenger to the rebels of a surveillance state, our task is to run through the sheen of the city, 'on the edge between the gloss and the reality'. Colour acts as a symbolic in-game indicator: we are invited to traverse, run across, or slide under any object that glows red. These are handy tip-offs, but they also hint that deeper secrets are encoded into the fibres of this sprawling city. All we need to do is follow the scattering of scarlet surfaces, storming across sunlit rooftops as if completing a colossal dot-to-dot puzzle.
Despite the hyper-bright aesthetics, there is an uncanny realism to our first-person experience. When we travel between two buildings by zipwire, our character's body contracts, her knees buckling as we try to keep her centred. As she scales a ledge, she clings on with stained fingertips as her legs dangle perilously below. The movements of her hands during combat sequences signals both our deftness and our proximity to a lethal blow, a single moment of bad luck threatening to fracture the mirror for good.
Words by Elizabeth Brown
In a totalitarian society where phone calls and emails are tracked, Faith is a courier who delivers confidential communiqués. The player spends the entirety of Mirror's Edge in her shoes, using her impressive parkour skills to traverse its urban utopia. Barely a second passes without the need to skid down a slanted surface, clamber up a drainpipe, or scale a fence. The action is seen from Faith's perspective, a choice that aids the sense of flowing movement and forward momentum. Each time she kicks in a glass panel or rams down a door, her limbs swing into view. With every roll, the camera angle spins along with her.
But the real star here is the cityscape itself. Buildings are glassy and spotless. The architecture is clean-cornered and clinical. In the opening moments, a handful of credits move slowly across the screen, encouraging us to trace a skyscraper's perimeter, the sweep of a street, and the profusion of parallel and perpendicular lines. As players sprint and jump across rooftops, they become familiar with repeating patterns within the city's construction. Under the glinting sun, the scaffolding and air vents seem fairly free of grime. Yet this pretence to purity, it soon becomes clear, is a futile attempt to hide the dirt beneath.
Words by John Wadsworth

Hiring a local Real Estate Agent is a point I have been very vocal about recently.
When selling, a non-local agent may not be able to be as much help to you as one who is local. Agents living in your city or neighborhood will most likely check in on your home and you more often than an agent that does not live close by. Agents nearby probably have a more intimate knowledge of the area than non-local agents. Any agent can look up local school statistics on the Web but only a local agent might have children that go to these schools. Local agents typically know the area better than their non-local counterparts as such they can typically describe your house much better, this may lead to better returns on your investment.
Selling is an emotional process. You have lived in your home and created memories there. The process of turning your home back into a house that others can see themselves living in can hurt, sometimes a lot. I can typically recognize this and being local I can bring pie or ice-cream, or whatever your comfort food might be. I can usually notice the signs of stress and fatigue and suggest that you take a step back. I can and will help with packing, garage sells, staging, photography, and so much more. Could a non-local agent provide these personal touches perhaps, but as it takes them longer to reach you I would imagine that these personal touches would possibly not be provided as often.
When buying the benefits of a local agent should be an invaluable resource to you. Local agents may be able to suggest restaurants in the area, parks, attractions and short cuts that other non-local agents may not know about. I live in Kyle, one of the Kyle elementary schools is built around a wildlife area. This gives students what I think is a unique learning experience. I have also toured both high schools in Kyle to learn about the many opportunities for skills that are available for students to learn that they can use right out of High School. These skills include but are not limited to: Culinary arts, 911 dispatch, welding, beautician certificates, and so many more opportunities. I also know that Kyle is the Pie Capitol of Texas and where to get pie that I think is the most amazing in the world. Could an agent that doesn't live in Kyle research and offer these same insights? I suppose so but find it highly unlikely.
Working with an agent when buying in a new home development should be considered essential. Although builders have agents that can show you around and be very helpful it is important to remember that a builder's agent does not work for you, they work for the builder. Buyers deserve to have an agent that is working for them and looking out for their best interests. The best part is that as a Buyer the Builder pays your agent for you, and having them on your side can help to significantly reduce unexpected costs down the road by suggesting that you get a third-party inspection. Your agent can also negotiate price and amenities with the builder's agent potentially helping you to get the best possible deal available. All repairs and changes should be made before closing, your agent will help to make sure this gets done.
I would love to work with you and provide you with these and other resources along the way. I would also appreciate your referral if you know someone who could use my services. Thank you for taking the time to read through this and for considering me as your agent.
Love Always

Artist Teil Duncan
I am from a small city on the Georgia Chattahoochee River called Columbus, and even though I now live far away in Denver, near the mountains, not the river, the south will never leave me. One reason is that so many talented and creative people from my hometown pull me back in with their art. And Teil Duncan's artwork doesn't just strike a nostalgic chord with me because we grew up in the same town at the same school. Nor does her work interest me because her landscapes are also familiar and dear to me. I am drawn to her work because it is simply mesmerizing. From an interior designer's perspective, Teil's work is what you create entire rooms around. Her colors are clear and true, her brush strokes are organic, and her portrayal of light is often ethereal. Her art speaks synergistically to my personal design aesthetic. If I one day have a dressing room, may I please have a wall full of Teil's lovely impressionistic nudes? Or when I have children, will you please paint one of them chasing his or her shadow in the 30-A waves? Here are some of my favorites, most of which are sold. Visit her website for a list of current pieces for sale, and an archived gallery of her work.
A collage of three children's portraits
I also love her animal pieces! So lively and colorful!
I will have these in my boudoir, please.
Finally, I love seeing one of her pieces in its setting. How beautifully placed.

Welcome to the world of Scruffcat, a cheerful collection of cute characters, playful patterns and animals with attitude! Here you'll find one-of-a-kind kids' (and soon grownups) clothing, bags, home decor and wall art for wee ones, lovingly designed by me, illustrator Carla Martell.
At Scruffcat we believe in the art of fun; creating lovely things to collect, wear and decorate your walls with. And if there's a special something you'd like to see in our shop (a hedgehog riding a bike or a small purple cat in stripy pants, for example), please do let us know - you'll probably dream up ideas we've never thought of!
I hope you (and your kiddywinks) enjoy our always-growing collection of characters, as much as I enjoy creating them for you.
A Bit About Me
Hello! I'm Carla Martell, lead arty person at Scruffcat HQ, where drawings of curious creatures are transformed into dashing designs for kids of all ages (even the grownup ones!) Ever since I can remember I've been drawing little animals and people, often with hats on. All that doodling practice led me along a curly path to my current destination, designing cute characters that make people smile.
Every Scruffcat creation starts off as an original illustration, usually hand-drawn in pen and ink, which is then custom printed onto quality clothing and prints. I've been selling my designs online for seven years, all over the world from my homeland of New Zealand to Norway and everywhere in between.
Please do get in touch if you have any questions, suggestions or design requests - I'd love to hear from you. If you'd like to see more of my illustration work, pop on over to my website!

Honing a Vision: 2014-2016
Driven to learn more about organizational sustainability and resilience, Hazel and Joe both enrolled as graduate students at Antioch University New England--Hazel taking on a Professional Science Master's in Resource Management and Conservation, and Joe taking on both a Master's of Business Administration in Sustainability and a Master's of Science in Environmental Studies with a concentration in Environmental Education. At Antioch, Hazel and Joe took a deep dive into the theory of systems thinking, human resource management, financial sustainability, innovation, entrepreneurship, triple bottom line business management, and leadership for change. In both of their courses of study, Hazel and Joe absorbed course content through the lens of starting MOS and in turn devoted all of their assignments to that end. While Hazel mapped social and ecological data for Downeast Maine in her Geographic Information Systems (GIS) class, Joe was creating financial projections for MOS. When Hazel was building partnerships with mission-aligned nonprofits in Downeast Maine, Joe was developing a business strategy for MOS. Above all, Hazel and Joe learned how to efficiently and effectively balance the business and mission priorities of people, planet and profit.
In the culmination of their time at Antioch, they successfully incorporated MOS as an L3C hybrid organization, developed a business model, found donors and allies, and implemented a pre-program evaluation that shaped their first programs.

Product Description
Tilikum Crossing is one of Portland's newest bridges in a city that's famous for them. Portlanders are proud of the fact that it is the first major bridge in the U.S. that was designed to allow access to transit vehicles, cyclists and pedestrians but not cars. We named our signature Swiss Water® Process decaf blend (formerly known as Vienna Decaf) after it—a full-bodied shot with notes of graham, caramel, and a clean finish. It's as distinctive as the bridge it's named for. It is great as a decaf cup of coffee or a decaf espresso.
Portland Roasting's 100% specialty grade Arabica coffee is now available in pre-ground, pre-portioned packaging optimized for convenient use in an office environment. Our packaging will take all the guess work out of dosing and grinding, letting you drink coffee the way it is intended. Portland Roasting portion packs are available a full range of roast profiles to satisfy any taste preference. We nitrogen flush all of our packaging to remove excess oxygen and keep your coffee fresh as long as possible.
The portion pack case contains 42 counts of 2.5 ounce portion packs of the Tilikum Decaf blend.

BENTON COUNTY, Arkansas (September 27, 2017) — Today, Simmons Prepared Foods, Inc.
announced it will build a new chicken facility in Benton County between Decatur and Gentry.
The company plans to invest $300 million in the facility which is expected to create approximately 1,500 new jobs, bringing total employment at the operation to over 2,300 people by 2022. It will also create new contracts with local Arkansas farmers. The facility will produce fresh and frozen chicken products for retail and restaurant customers with capacity to sell approximately 850 million pounds of poultry meat annually at full production. The company expects to begin new operations in 2019.
"We're thrilled to bring this project to our community and are grateful for the cooperation from the Cities of Decatur and Gentry, local officials, Arkansas Economic Development Commission and the State of Arkansas," said Todd Simmons, CEO of Simmons Foods, Inc. and Affiliates. "This project positions us to continue meeting our customers' needs."
The design will feature modern production facilities and contemporary office space supported with best-in-class environmental technologies. Simmons also plans to increase starting pay at production facilities later this year.
Governor Asa Hutchinson joined Simmons' leadership and local officials at today's announcement
event at Simmons Great Hall on the campus of John Brown University.
"Simmons Foods is a homegrown company that continues to invest heavily in Northwest Arkansas," Hutchinson said. "This announcement comes just two months after the company held a ribbon-cutting at its new pet food ingredient facility in Siloam Springs, which goes to show the faith they have in the area's workforce and their commitment to the state. We competed with both Oklahoma and Missouri for this project, and I'm proud to say we won."
County Judge Barry Moehring also joined today's announcement.
"Entrepreneurial families built the backbone of our community," said Judge Moehring. "We are fortunate to have great, role model businesses in Northwest Arkansas. Simmons is one of those."
Simmons' existing operations in the Decatur, Arkansas, area include a feed mill, hatchery, propane
business, business offices and a chicken processing facility, along with a dry pet food production facility operated by Simmons Pet Food. Some processing operations will transition from the existing facility to the proposed plant once construction is complete.

The Comparison – In order to better understand everything, let's first discuss the IRS's jurisdiction over both the 508c1a and 501c3. The tax code 26 USC 508c1a, under which you establish your Church's Constitution Document and the Corporation Sole, grants a mandatory tax exemption status to Churches without any pre-conditions. You'll begin to see why creating your Church with a legal Constitution, and then organizing its finances through a subsequent Corporation Sole, is the only viable way to create a truly free church in the current political climate of today.
A. Tax Code 508c1a
– Jurisdiction over churches, their auxiliaries, conventions, associations of churches, or any non-private private foundation, the gross receipts of which in each year are not more than $5,000.
– In some states, the church's legal Constitution is required to be filed along with Corporation Sole.
– Given mandatory tax exemption status
B. Tax Code 501c3
– Jurisdiction over corporations, certain trusts, community chests, funds and foundations. – NOT churches!
– Only religious organizations that have incorporated themselves are underneath the 501c3s jurisdiction.
– Given conditional tax exemption status
C. Assets are why churches today are forced into having a board of directors. A Corporation Sole is the only exception to this rule! It does not require an oversight committee to manage its assets.
D. Here is the most important caveat to the 501c3 conditional tax exempt provision that keeps the churches on their collective heels: It mandates that no substantial part of the activities of which is carrying on propaganda and which does not participate in, or intervene in any political campaign on behalf of any candidate for public office. This is why the legally establishing your church is so important, establishing the church under its rightful and proper tax code, 508c1a, which circumvents the political restrictions which inhibits the church from speaking out the truth in love, and educating fellow believers about political candidates who share our love and value for God's Word.

The creators of the much-loved Christmas classic The Snowman are to create a film depicting the true story of Wojtek the soldier bear.
Wojtek fought the Nazis during the Second World War and arrived at Winfield, Berwickshire, after the war with his fellow Polish soldiers who had adoped him.
A Bear Named Wojtek is being developed by Iain Harvey, the executive producer on the 1982 television adaption of Raymond Briggs's children's story.
Producers have already secured Polish funding for the film and are currently seeking a British partner, with the BBC, Channel 4 and Netflix all viable options.
A Bear Named Wojtek is set to be released to coincide with the 75th anniversary of VE Day on May 8, 2020.

Product Reviews
I inherited a network (built very poorly) with three of these switches. None of the real power of the switch was leveraged, so I can't speak much to that effect. The CLI is decent, and they seem to work well enough. I have two negatives. 1 - The GUI is painfully slow. Please don't plan to use it, unless you are really bored. 2 - I had one start to fail suddenly in the production network. It started powering off every two minutes. There were a few problems here. The first was that all the logs are erased at a reboot, meaning if you aren't shipping logs, good luck finding out why it rebooted. Luckily I had some new hardware I was planning on replacing this with in a few weeks, so I was able to reconfigure another switch and get back up and running in a few minutes. I was planning on buying the 10GbE modules for two of the switches and utilizing them for a server project I have coming up that would require 10Gb switching. Now I am very hesitant when the switch powers off multiple times for no apparent reason. Sorry to be a negative nancy...

I dismantled one of my Darkover frontispieces for this piece, which I found in the family archive. I cut off the decorative border with an X-acto knife and glued the image to a little sheet of black matboard. The scene is inspired by the Alps and if I colored it in, it would look like imitation Maxfield Parrish. Which would look kind a good, maybe I should try it with the magic of Photoshop. I need to find the rest of these designs, even now many of them have not been shown here.

Creating sneakers with sole at VEJA
Take a look inside today's shoe industry and it's hard to sidestep the mountain of waste it's creating. An estimated 20 billion pairs of shoes are produced annually, with roughly 300 million pairs ending up in landfill. What's more, conservative estimates suggest the average pair takes more than 50 years to fully decompose. Global production, long distance transport, and the use of toxic chemicals make today's fast fashion model ripe for circular innovations.
One company bucking the trend is VEJA. Hailing from France, VEJA is a sneaker, bag and accessory brand aiming to break the take-make-waste model by creating stunningly hip sneakers for the fashion-focused. The company strives for transparency across all areas of its business, making it easy to get a peek at what a sustainable shoe looks like. Spoiler alert: it isn't your typical cork bottomed sandal.
We are living in a material world
According to recent research from the Ellen MacArthur Foundation, less than 1% of material used to produce clothing is recycled into new clothing, representing a loss of more than USD 100 billion worth of materials each year. To combat this, VEJA uses several recycled materials in its manufacturing and production. This includes cotton thrown out by the fashion industry, recycled jute and recycled polyester. As the head of communications at VEJA, Guillaume Dovale, explains, "our recycled materials give a second life to domestic waste and helps us create various fabrics depending on their unique properties and the season we are in."
Recycled materials, along with organic cotton and wild rubber are used because they have less of an impact on the environment and the people working with them. Dovale goes on to highlight, "making organic and agroecological cotton is not only better for the soil, it's better for farmers health because we don't use any pesticides or fertilizers during the process."
"It's the same for wild rubber. We invented a process that helps farmers transform wild rubber from the Amazonian Forest into rubber sheets without any industrial intermediary, and the rubber is purer and more elastic thanks to the technique. Farmers also make decent revenue from the forest, add value to it and help protect against deforestation."
VEJA doesn't stop at employing biological materials in its supply chain, the company proudly create new textiles too. This includes their signature B-mesh, or bottle mesh, a fabric made from 100 per cent recycled polyethylene terephthalate or P.E.T.. The B-mesh fabric is made in Santo Andre, Brazil from recycled plastic bottles that are collected, sorted and transformed into plastic flakes. The flakes are then turned into polyester fiber. It takes three plastic bottles to make a pair of VEJA sneakers. The result is a light, breathable and waterproof trainer.
No tip toeing around
Beyond materials, VEJA's business model runs on a six-month production cycle to cut out surplus. VEJA presents its collection in advance to stockists who then place their orders before production starts. In doing so, the company can produce precisely what it sells.
VEJA has also disrupted the traditional fashion business model by cutting out 100% of its marketing budget. Dovale explains,
"when you buy a pair of sneakers today, 70% of its costs is from advertising and marketing. We decided if we reallocated all those costs to production and people, we could deconstruct the sneaker and have a positive impact on every step of the chain. All while selling at the same price as other brands."
While VEJA remains a small player in the global shoe business, it certainly is a pioneer. If more companies followed VEJA's lead, not only would it be a boon for sustainability, but for fashion itself. While perhaps a bit modest, Dovale, points out "I don't know if we lead the industry in any particular area, but we try hard to make concrete and real projects that we would like to see in the world."
It's one small step for VEJA and one giant leap for the footwear industry.

Alfie Elkins (Jude Law) works as a limousine driver, chauffeuring the wealthy through the streets of Manhattan, and occasionally making love to his lonely female clients in the backseat. Though he has ambitions, he wants only enough to get by, his primary focus being the pleasures of life -- without any of the responsibilities.
Yeah, it's true that Alfie epitomizes the swinging playboy archetype… But, underneath the charm, the bravado, the swagger, there's another side… "a man who won't let the love in."
