Though it has been a dark year for Rwanda's press, it has also been a year of resistance and turning to a new sort of reporting--from exile. Ever since Rwandan authorities began cracking down on the nation's independent press before the presidential elections in August, the space for critical reporting has been dissipating.
By June, life had become too difficult for the main players behind Umuseso. Chief Editor Charles Kabonero and Web Editor Richard Kayigamba found themselves in exile along with Gasana. (I am not disclosing their current location, since this information could put them at risk.)
Undeterred, the exiled editors launched a new independent weekly called The Newsline. Their first edition was ready in July, and they attempted to ship it into Kigali in advance of Rwanda's elections.
The bus carrying the copies of The Newsline was stopped at the border and the papers were confiscated, Kabonero told me. Government security agents detained the conductor for five days in an attempt to find out who was behind the publication. Fortunately for the Newsline team, the conductor forgot the names of their newspaper distributor contacts in Kigali. Still, Kabonero said, "we felt so bad about getting this innocent fellow in trouble."
Unable to ship the papers into the country directly, the team started sending electronic copies and smuggled in a few hard copies.
"We didn't plan on it but people just started printing Newsline from the emailed versions we sent and threw copies onto the road," Kabonero said. "I was so happy, I started encouraging people to do it."Despite the clandestine printed versions, the paper's circulation in Rwanda remains very weak. While The Newsline sells around 1,700 copies in Uganda per week, only 300 reach Rwanda.
The Newsline's target audience is the Rwandan diaspora. It is printed in English, unlike the editors' former weekly, Umuseso, which was printed in the local Kinyarwandan language.
The online edition of The Newsline attracts more readers than the print edition, Kayigamba said. Still, The Newsline cannot be considered a replacement for the former feisty weekly. The new publication has a more national, analytical focus, rather than the regional, news-oriented focus found in Umuseso, Kabonero said.
"Newsline has very few investigative stories, unlike Umuseso," Kabonero admitted. "Umuseso had so much penetration, so many stringers--we are missing the rural stories that made the much-needed former paper what it was."
The new publication still maintains its critical stance with headlines such as "Kagame wins a contest that never was," an article that claimed the August presidential elections were manipulated to ensure President Paul Kagame's landslide victory. But the Newsline editors refute the claim they are an opposition paper. "We still criticize the opposition," Kabonero said. "But we are the only ones that provide coverage for the opposition politicians, since 60 percent of the Rwandan media is state-controlled."
Obtaining information is a challenge for the exiled editors. Journalists in Kigali are easily bribed or intimidated by the state, Kabonero said, making factual confirmation difficult. An even greater concern is ensuring the security of their reporters and sources.
"That's our main anxiety these days," Gasana told me. "Whatever they do to us does not worry us." The exiled editors still get threatening text messages from anonymous senders and are aware of at least three instances when Rwandan security agents followed them, Gasana said. "They know our movements. The Rwandan ambassador has criticized [us] on the air over here, but you get used to it," he added.
Most Newsline contributors opt to keep their names out of the newspaper's bylines to protect themselves. "None of our journalists know each other," Kabonero said. "That way, if one is interrogated by security, he or she will not reveal the other reporters working for Newsline."
While clearly pleased with their new product, the editorial team admits that The Newsline does not fill the information vacuum left by Umuseso and another defunct leading Kinyarwandan weekly, Umuvugizi. Rwanda's Media High Council suspended Umuvugizi at the same time as Umuseso, leading Editor Jean-Bosco Gasasira to flee Rwanda in May after reporting legal and physical intimidation similar to that faced by the Umuseso journalists. Gasasira, now in Sweden, told me that 70 percent of Rwandans speak only Kinyarwandan.
"Most Rwandans do not speak English or French and only three percent have Internet access. So without these tabloid newspapers [Umuseso and Umuvugizi], the public will have no independent news," Gasasira said. Umuvugizi now publishes online and receives an average of 5,000 visitors per day, according to Gasasira. The site is still blocked in Rwanda.
Another private weekly long harassed by the government, Umurabyo, quickly rose to prominence in April, although it was not considered as professional as the suspended papers, Umuseso and Umuvugizi, local journalists told CPJ. Umurabyo stopped publishing in July after police arrested its editors on charges of incitement, genocide denial and contempt for the head of state.
This month, the Media High Council called Editor Nelson Gatsimbazi of Umusingi, a private paper that publishes irregularly, expressing concern over a series of recently published articles. Gatsimbazi told CPJ he fears the meeting with the Council will eventually lead to Umusingi's suspension.
As the Rwandan government cracks down on the last vestiges of the media's independent press, we may expect the ranks of Rwanda's exiled media practitioners to grow. Few expect they will be able to return any time soon. The Media High Council recently lifted the six-month suspension on Umuseso and Umuvugizi. But this hardly allows them the opportunity to return, Gasana told me.
Still facing criminal charges, Umuseso will not be able to register with the Media High Council as required by the media law to publish in Rwanda. "The Council still wants to ban us permanently," Gasana adds, "and that will always hang over our heads.

In this BI Blog, we have covered many different ways to use PowerPivot as a rich business intelligence solution. Derek has demonstrated some very impressive uses of PowerPivot that he's done with BI Voyage.
When SQL Server 2008 R2 was released in 2010, Microsoft hatched the idea of "self-service BI" within the SQL Server product stack and PowerPivot was the primary driver behind that position. A typical pattern with PowerPivot that I've witnessed is that BI developers or business users will play around with building data models in PowerPivot on a small scale, usually on their laptop. PowerPivot is simply an add-in to Excel 2010 that you can download free from Microsoft. PowerPivot takes your data sources and puts them into a column-based compression format called Vertipaq and generates and in-memory analysis services cube for you, without a developer needing to go into Visual Studio and build a complex SSAS cube with UDM technology.
Where SQL Server 2008 R2 Enterprise Edition comes into play is that once you've built your business data models and Excel reports from that model, you will want to share that knowledge and decision-making power that you've just spent hours creating, with the rest of the organization so that others can benefit from it and improve the decision-making capabilities of your company. In today's SQL Server BI world, your next step would be to upload that PowerPivot Excel workbook to SharePoint 2010. SharePoint has the ability to deconstruct that Excel workbook into data connections, PowerPivot cubes and reports, thereby giving you the ability to use PowerPivot as a complete BI solution tool with SharePoint based security features. But instead of spinning-up the in-memory cubes on your laptop as PowerPivot does with the Excel version, SharePoint will utilize SQL Server's Analysis Service for the in-memory analytics. It's all really pretty simple and straight-forward.
SQL Server 2012 adds even more enterprise capabilities to this PowerPivot model of Microsoft BI solutions. In the screen capture below of my SQL Server 2012 RC0 SSMS, you can see that I've connected to a database in SSAS that is called SalesPP. That is my sales Excel spreadsheet where I modeled my business data in PowerPivot right in Excel. In SQL 2012, when you right-click on on Databases, you will see an option to "Restore from PowerPivot". This will take your PowerPivot Excel sheet and generate an SSAS database from that file. Once you have generated the SSAS database, you have now created and Enterprise-ready version of your PowerPivot model that will now allow users to connect to it to browse and generate reports from Excel, Report Builder, Power View (see samples of my reports from my PowerPivot model in SSAS at the bottom of this posting using Report Builder 3.0).
This power and ease-of-use of this model has become so successful for business users, business analysts and power users, that Microsoft has essentially made the modeling and column compression capabilities in Vertipaq part of the SQL Server Analysis Services engine with SQL Server 2012. When you create a BI solution in SQL Server 2012 through Visual Studio (now call it SSDT, not BIDS) you will make a choice between the classic SSAS cube with the UDM modeling using ROLAP or MOLAP vs. the PowerPivot style of in-memory cubes generated by Analysis Services, which is called Tabular Model. When you make a tabular model data model, SSAS will store your model and then spin-up the cube in memory for you when it is accessed for querying, giving you the same PowerPivot compression and in-memory analytics on an enterprise scale.
Lastly, there are number of additional new enterprise features added to PowerPivot 2.0 (SQL Server 2012 version) that you can use today by downloading PowerPivot 2.0.
When I use Report Builder 3.0 to build a report from my PowerPivot model that has been stored in SSAS 2012, I get the classic MDX cube style query builder.

Obamacare "victim" now says loss of previous health plan may be "a blessing in disguise"
Because her $54 per month plan was cancelled due to Obamacare's new higher requirements — and because her insurance company's recommended replacement would cost her nearly 10 times as much — Dianne Barrette became the face of Obamacare's so-called victims.
But in a new report from the New Republic, Barrette, after factoring in her tax credits and going through her options with reporter Jonathan Cohn, is now singing Obamacare's praises, even going so far as to say her previous plan's cancellation was "maybe" a "blessing in disguise."
Like many people M's Barrette was living in an information bubble. A friend or some on TV or AM radio told her that the changes in health care insurance were bad. She believed it without looking at the numbers. Like many people in the individual insurance market – those who buy their health insurance on their own instead of getting it through their employer, did not realize how awful her insurance was. She had a high up front deductible, and after the deductible she had to pay a high percentage of the costs and the total payout by her insurance company was capped at a certain amount. She, like many other would have been liable for everything over their cap – frequently $15k to $20k. In other words if she had a heart attack, she would have had some real financial hardship. Now, once she and similar policy holders have no cap and with many of them qualifying for tax credits, she will pay about the same for much better coverage. Insurance is not that complicated so I'm assuming that reading and making comparisons is like high school homework, these people just don't want to do it. And since there is no parents or teachers to force them to do their homework now, they just go by bits of misinformation floating around the bubble.
The thirteenth labor of Hercules. Poster created 1914. Panama Pacific International Exposition, San Francisco, 1915 : opens February 20, closes December 4. The Exposition of 1915 was both a celebration of the completion of the Panama Canal and an opportunity for San Francisco to show it had recovered from the Great Earthquake of 1906. In the legend, Hercules had only 12 labours. Building the Canala was probably more difficult than Labour 9, to 'Obtain the girdle of Hippolyta, Queen of the Amazons'.

I am unsure if there is a finer establishment. The staff is warm and the bathroom is my favorite. The food is still my favorite part of this place.
Morgan S., via Facebook
Their pizza is so dope. And the meatball sub is excellent.
Latoya W., via Facebook
This is probably the best pizza and place on the planet. I feel a little sad every time I finish a slice. When they closed for a week over Christmas I nearly cried.
Maher A., via Facebook
My favorite pizza spot in the hood. The atmosphere is great, the food is amazing, I'm still shocked at how good that salad is, and the staff is incredible. And now, after writing this, I want some pizza… dammit.
Linwood Y., via Facebook
My favorite place……the pizza is top notch, the beers are great and the service is great.
Agustin P., via Facebook
Thanks for being you !!!!
Jessica W., via Facebook
Nice. Good mood.
Lubomir B., via Facebook
Great pizza, super cool staff, fun after hours spot; And try the scorpion pepper hot sauce they keep behind the bar. Thanks, Jacob!
Ryan E., Brooklyn, NY
Was recommended by a friend and I was not disappointed! The bartenders were super kind and funny, and they made a point to chat with everyone in the bar. They were able to work around my tomato allergy and didn't give me any grief for it, which I really appreciate. The prices weren't too bad and the drinks were great! I cannot wait to come back
Julie W., Fort Worth, TX
This is my go to dinner spot, whether it be for a slice of their special pizza, a grinder, or a salad with a side of meatballs. Everything I order from here is amazing. The pizza is soft yet has a crunchy bottom, the cheese and sauce are perfect, and they loadddd on the toppings. The main thing I get is their salad and add ham, turkey, and shredded mozzarella- makes an amazing chef salad. They have so many different beers to choose from and they aren't the traditional CoorsLight, Budweiser, Coronas, which is refreshing, they craft or local beers. The service is great, they are always friendly, down to chat, and remember you for the most part. Sometimes if I don't feel like going out out- just going here for some beer and food with friends is a fun night. They play good music, attract a pretty young and eclectic crowd, its always a good night here. Very relaxed. Definitely check it out.
Timothy S., Brooklyn, NY
Best place ever. From the pizza, to the grinders to the salads (that you can add an assortment of meats too). No to mention they got fuckin' cold Budweiser to slam while you wait (a short period of time) for your grub. Great staff. open till 4am. Nuff said.
austin h., Brooklyn, NY
Great little pizza place. Love the crust; much more substantial than your typical New York slice, and the pepperoni pieces were super tasty. Will definitely be coming back. Also, really fast prep time for pick-up
Lisa G., Brooklyn, NY
A friend and I had been wanting to try Archie's and we finally did. He got there first and took it upon himself to order a large pie with anchovies and ricotta. Not for nothing but I thought that was a bit rude—I'm not a fan of the anchovy. But Archie's version was fantastic! Not drowning in fishiness, balanced really nicely with cheese—it was great! Suffice it to say I"ve craving it ever since. The Greek wine, the meatball appetizer—all really delicious.
Great vibe, very friendly service, not overcrowded, just really, really good.
Sandra G., Brooklyn, NY
Hey, this is a fun time. Very nice people working the bar and pizza station, good drink, good grub, what more can you ask for? I don't know, but I do hope that this place sticks around because the block needs more cool little unpretentious spots.
The food is quick and delicious. The beer selection is smart. The wine is all greek for some reason. But that's cool, I guess.
Ok yea, check this place out.
Oliver L., Brooklyn, NY
Awesome pizza and a chill spot to hang around. Definitely gonna be a bushwick classic.
Oya D., Bushwick, Brooklyn, NY
Great vibe, delicious pizza, affordable brews, and super helpful and friendly staff! I might become a regular.
Kelly B., Truckee, CA
This is a great neighborhood hangout. It's small enough that the fun staff gets to know just about everyone. I sat at the bar by myself, and made a couple friends. The recipes are from the chef's Greek grandmother, so you know they're going to taste home-made. The meatball grinder was full of flavor, and so big I could barely finish it. The dressing on the Greek salad was light and tart.
Eric J., Sherman Oaks, CA
Stopped in tonight because Archie's just opened up near my house and wanted to check it out. Turns out it's co-owned by one of the nicest guys in the hood! I wasn't super hungry, so I just got a slice, but it was delicious – you could tell they took care in picking quality ingredients, the sauce was excellent, definitely a step up from a regular slice place. Watching other peoples food come out, the salad was huge, and the meatballs looked absolutely amazing. If I had been hungrier I totally would have ordered those after seeing them. Looking forward to trying the grinders. I'm so excited to have a place close by that serves great food til 4am!!!!! Also full bar, cozy and clean. I think they will do very well. So happy to have another great option!
Tanya D., Brooklyn, NY
This place is a welcome addition to the neighborhood! I've been in three times since they opened just barely two weeks ago and I'm completely obsessed. The itty bitty pepperoni's they put on a yummy slice of pizza are amazing and kind if remind me of the pizza I ate growing up as a kid in the Detroit area. Anyways, this place is great!!!
Lauren P., Brooklyn, NY
Amazingly good pizza! Perfect date spot or just hanging w friends. Don't usually love salads but their Romaine salad w the house dressing also worth a bite.
Karla M., via Foursquare
Deep dish pizza, good beer, and open late. Couldn't ask for more.
Erin S., via Foursquare
Ricotta/meatball pie & beers add the chili
Sloane T., via Foursquare
Headiest late-night grub spot. Meatball sub was crispy and flavorful and essentially put me to bed. Awesome staff!
Mike F., via Foursquare
Had the meatball sub and was very impressed. It's got a touch of spice to it and is very filling
Sasha F., via Foursquare
New England-style pizza done right. Fun late night scene

This fearsome looking fly, large and giving every appearance of aggression is, nonetheless, completely harmless to man. Most of the body is hairy and golden-brown, except for the first few segments of the abdomen, which are black. Another identifying feature common to this family is the deep groove between the eyes.
Hornet robberflies start to emerge in mid-June with the bulk of the insects appearing in July. They are predatory flies, and the adults intercept their prey in mid-flight. The favoured food species seem to be dung beetles, but other prey recorded has included grasshoppers, bees and wasps. The robberfly hunts from a perch, which can be a stick, stone or a dung pat. The larvae of this species are themselves predatory. The adult female lays her eggs on or around a pile of animal dung. The grubs enter the soil immediately after hatching and, having fed on beetle grubs, the larvae burrow into the soil before pupating.
The hornet robberfly is found across Western Europe, and in some 50 - 100 scattered populations in southern England and Wales. It appears to be declining across the whole of its range.
This species requires unimproved grassland and heath, preferably grazed, as animal dung is known to play an important part in the robberfly's lifecycle.
Classified as Nationally Scarce in the UK.
There are two main threats to the hornet robberfly. Much of Britain's unimproved grassland and a lot of its heathland have been lost to agriculture or urban development. Those remaining have largely been fragmented, a situation which isolates populations of many species. A bigger threat is the use of persistent chemical treatments for parasite infestations in grazing stock. These include ivermectin, which can persist in an active form in an animal's dung for some time. This chemical not only kills the internal parasites but also kills or causes serious deformities in the insects that feed on the treated dung. This in turn can affect the robberflies and their larvae.
The hornet robberfly is listed as a priority species in the UK Biodiversity Action Plan (UK BAP) and is included in English Nature's Species Recovery Programme. The Countryside Council for Wales leads the work being carried out to recover the fortunes of this species.
A number of different endangered species are associated with animal dung, including a number of well-known ones such as the greater horseshoe bat and chough. The main conservation targets are to increase the available habitat for these species, incorporating agricultural management changes, and particularly to control the frequency and the timing of parasite treatment for stock. One recommendation is to produce an information leaflet for distribution to the owners of stock in the areas where the hornet robberfly is still found. Convincing some people, however, about the importance of conservation for invertebrates, especially large aggressive-looking ones, may prove tricky.

Is there a camera app that records EXIF information? In particular, I would need the following:
- GPSLatitude
- GPSLongitude
- GPSImgDirection
- SubjectDistance
I've checked that all these fields can be saved via android. I'm just wondering if there is a camera app that actually DOES save this information in exif for a photo. Most apps I've tried only save max the latitude and longitude.

The above link will help us look a little closer at the who, what, why, when, where & how of suicide.
Here is a portion of what I read there:
You are here
No suicide attempt should be dismissed or treated lightly!
Why Do People Attempt Suicide?
A suicide attempt is a clear indication that something is gravely wrong in a person's life. No matter the race or age of the person; how rich or poor they are, it is true that most people who die by suicide have a mental or emotional disorder. The most common underlying disorder is depression, 30% to 70% of suicide victims suffer from major depression or bipolar (manic-depressive) disorder.
Warning Signs of Someone Considering Suicide
Any one of these signs does not necessarily mean the person is considering suicide, but several of these symptoms may signal a need for help:
- Verbal suicide threats such as, "You'd be better off without me." or "Maybe I won't be around"
- Expressions of hopelessness and helplessness
- Previous suicide attempts
- Daring or risk-taking behavior
- Personality changes
- Depression
- Giving away prized possessions
- Lack of interest in future plans
Remember: Eight out of ten people considering suicide give some sign of their intentions. People who talk about suicide, threaten suicide, or call suicide crisis centers are 30 times more likely than average to kill themselves.
If You Think Someone Is Considering Suicide
- Trust your instincts that the person may be in trouble
- Talk with the person about your concerns. Communication needs to include LISTENING
- Ask direct questions without being judgmental. Determine if the person has a specific plan to carry out the suicide. The more detailed the plan, the greater the risk
- Get professional help, even if the person resists
- Do not leave the person alone
- Do not swear to secrecy
- Do not act shocked or judgmental
- Do not counsel the person yourself
Suicide Statistics
- Suicide is the eighth leading cause of death in the United States, accounting for more than 1% of all deaths
- More years of life are lost to suicide than to any other single cause except heart disease and cancer
- 30,000 Americans die by suicide each year; an additional 500,000 Americans attempt suicide annually
- The actual ratio of attempts to completed suicides is probably at least 10 to 1
- 30% to 40% of persons who complete suicide have made a previous attempt
- The risk of completed suicide is more than 100 times greater than average in the first year after an attempt – 80 times greater for women, 200 times greater for men, 200 times greater for people over 45, and 300 times greater for white men over 65
- Suicide rates are highest in old age: 20% of the population and 40% of suicide victims are over 60. After age 75, the rate is three times higher than average, and among white men over 80, it is six times higher than average
- Substance abuse is another great instigator of suicide; it may be involved in half of all cases. About 20% of suicides involve people with alcohol problems, and the lifetime rate of suicide among people with alcohol-use problems is at least three or four times the average. Completed suicides are more likely to be men over 45 who are depressed or alcoholic.
Preventing Suicide
Although they may not call prevention centers, people considering suicide usually do seek help; for example, 64% of people who attempt suicide visit a doctor in the month before their attempt, and 38% in the week before.1
Helping Someone Who is Considering Suicide
- No single therapeutic approach is suitable for all people considering suicide or suicidal tendencies. The most common ways to treat underlying illnesses associated with suicide are with medication, talk therapy or a combination of the two.
- Cognitive (talk therapy) and behavioral (changing behavior) therapies aim at relieving the despair of suicidal patients by showing them other solutions to their problems and new ways to think about themselves and their world. Behavioral methods, such as training in assertiveness, problem-solving, social skills, and muscle relaxation, may reduce depression, anxiety, and social ineptitude.
- Cognitive and behavioral homework assignments are planned in collaboration with the patient and explained as experiments that will be educational even if they fail. The therapist emphasizes that the patient is doing most of the work, because it is especially important for a person thinking about suicide not to see the therapist as necessary for their survival.
- Recent research strongly supports the use of medication to treat the underlying depression associated with suicide. Antidepressant medication acts on chemical pathways of the brain related to mood. There are many very effective antidepressants. The two most common types are selective serotonin reuptake inhibitors (SSRIs) and tricyclic antidepressants (TCAs). Other new types of antidepressants (e.g. alpha-2 antagonist, selective norepinephrine reuptake inhibitors (SNRIs) and aminoketones), and an older class, monoamine oxidase inhibitors (MAOIs), are also prescribed by some doctors.
- Antidepressant medications are not habit-forming. Although some symptoms such as insomnia, often improve within a week or two, it may take three or four weeks before you feel better; the full benefit of medication may require six to eight weeks of treatment. Sometimes changes need to be made in dosage or medication type before improvements are noticed. It is usually recommended that medications be taken for at least four to nine months after the depressive symptoms have improved. People with chronic depression may need to stay on medication to prevent or lessen further episodes.
- People taking antidepressants should be monitored by a doctor who knows about treating clinical depression to ensure the best treatment with the fewest side effects. It is also very important that your doctor be informed about all other medicines that are taken, including vitamins and herbal supplements, in order to help avoid dangerous interactions. Alcohol or other drugs can interact negatively with antidepressant medication.
- Do not discontinue medication without discussing the decision with your doctor.

Recent transition to veganism
Hi everyone!
My name is Emily and I've been slowly making my transition into vegatarian/veganism and a couple weeks ago i finally found the right motivation for me and haven't touched meat since.
Part of my reason for chosing a change in lifestyle was issues with weight, and of course for animal rights. My brother and his girlfriend use to live with me and were a huge help as they both are vegan but they no longer live with me and I'm finding myself struggling a little bit with diet.
Does anyone have any tips on veganism based on protein, vitamins ect?
all have great protein.
There is so much protien...out there you dont even realize it.
Remember that the food industry has put it in our ears that the only protien and calcium is in meat and dairy...this is not true at all....here is a great documentary/book...look up Forks over knives....Great help for me and after I watched it, I changed my life.

Oh boy...it's totally cute!!! xxReplyDelete
I'm sold! But the bigger question is........Does Bunny 'go' in a litter box inside the house?ReplyDelete
- Justine4:09 PM
Are bunnies allowed in Paris cafes?ReplyDelete
You didn't say...
The deciding factor..ahem
Ohhhhh, Carol--I am laughing out loud. YOu are a riot. That painting you did of those two is hilarious--too cute. I love the lopsided ears all askew. You are the best: you'll take on anything. These bunnies are pretty funny...but I'm not sure the Mistress is going to approve. Hahaaaaaa.ReplyDelete
Wonderful blog! Stumbled upon it in search of Au Petit Bonheur la Chance (as seen in a magazine) and there you were! And, yes, bunnies do indeed "go" in a litter box. My two do and every other house bunny I know do as well. But do be aware that buns are delightful pets just...well...cat lovers have interesting couches, bunny lovers have...ahem...ruffled wooden baseboards...ReplyDelete
Hi Carol...visiting your blog is one delightful experience! Lovely watercolours and beautiful pics :)ReplyDelete
My two do and every other house bunny I know do as well. But do be aware that buns are delightful petsReplyDelete
I love it - this is so cute!ReplyDelete
Great watercolors and all the bunny pics........very cute, Carol.
Have a great weekend!
Love the one in front of laduree. you paint so well! i have a new online boutique with a giveaway if youd like to join. FionaReplyDelete
So lovely bunnies! And also those Alice's cafe photos earlier are so interesting!! =O)ReplyDelete
I have a bunny begging to go to my mom's - I bought it at the Philadelphia Flower Show where the them is Springtime in Paris! Love your array of Bunnies - especially the painted ones you did!ReplyDelete
OH there have been many 'lapin' posts at PBReplyDelete
Just click the links...
but no other live lapin before.
I hope more will now HOP forward Suzanne.
xxx Carolg
Thanks for the bunny blog....reminds me of my dear departed Mocha, a chocolate angora rabbit....what a sweetie. I actually have lots of his fluff to spin and knit. And, yes, he was housebroken....hopped into his crate to go in his plastic box full of hay.ReplyDelete
I also enjoyed your Alice's Tea Cup post...I've been there and it is fun for lunch. Great desserts and cookies; I plan to check out their cookbook.
It warmed my heart to see that video. The pure happiness of that gorgeous lapin. I'm yearning for one of those soaps, and I love your watercolors!ReplyDelete
Julie - those rabbit 'soaps' from Laduree are really chocolate - they do look a lot like soap though...ReplyDelete
Such delightful rabbitery going on here!ReplyDelete
I think I would go for the real thing instead of chocolaty ones that look like soap. ;-)
I did not know that the Lindt Golden Bunny is available as a Plüschtier (look, girl, no calories!).
Btw, spring has arrived in earnest here, almost 70°F!
CUTE! Some days I feel like I have one ear up and one ear down.ReplyDelete
I don't have any bunnies wanting to go to Paris, but Harry The Cat is all packed and waiting for his plane ticket to arrive to accompany you!
Merci, now I know what a Lop is, I kept seeing a handmade sign hung out in front of a house on my travels back and forth to Hobart 'lops for sale' and I was continually mystified. Found you blog because I am Francophile who travels to Paris every year. PS like your illustration style tres bon. Roz (currently in Brisbane, Australia)ReplyDelete
Those rabbit 'soaps' from Laduree are really chocolate - they do look a lot like soap though..ReplyDelete
- Bluebelle & Pebbles4:54 AM
La peinture,c'est arriveeReplyDelete
I just wanted you to know that the painting arrived today and I'm absolutely delighted with it. It's arrived just in time for my birthday so I/m doubley pleased.
Thank you so much and also for all the beautiful little souvenirs of Laduree etc. I'm chuffed.
I'd never heard of 'Laduree' or the famous 'macaron' until I read your blog - so I'll be checking them out when I next go to Paris
anyway thank you again
Found your blog 'cus you've linked to my Bunny-youtube-video. I think my bunny looks a lot like the one on your very cute painting. :)ReplyDelete
And I can tell you, that yes, my Bunny uses a litter box and runs free in my apartment. Just like a little cat.
Thanks for linking and have a lovely day.

I Dream of Jeannie10/31/2008 11:02:00 PM Edit This 3 Comments »
As you can see she made a darn cute Jeannie, if I do say so myself. Everyone thought she was so adorable and there wasn't another Jeannie in sight which always makes me happy. She had so much fun as usual. This kid really enjoys events and activities. She just jumps right in.
Here she is before we left the house right after her nap and lunch. We first got her picture taken at a local photo studio that was doing drop in Halloween pictures. I figured I'd try that before with the hopes of getting one good one with her hat on. The only problem is she was more scared of the studio than she was anywhere else. I deliberately didn't take her anywhere set up for older kids or where there would be "scary" things because she's been freaking out at stores since the Halloween stuff has been out (which was like Valentines Day right!) Anyway, after that we went first to a small local mall to meet some friends and see how she would do. She was pretty timid at first but very quickly warmed up to it and would even say "kik -oh-kret" and always "hank u." Very sweet.
Here she is looking like she was begging "please sir, may I have some more?" I do feed this child.
And the HAT...it was a pain from the beginning. She didn't want to wear it for the longest time. My child who won't sit on her potty chair without a hat on wouldn't wear the hat whenever I tried the costume on her or we practiced Trick or Treating. I also have been rigging it since I got it in the mail 6 weeks ago. The hat they sent was just cloth so I have stitched and then stapled cardboard in it and then added a neck strap to keep it on but of course she was pulling it off or it got caught or whatever. But the hat is what makes the costume so I actually ended up bribing her to wear it. I swore I was never going to be one of "those" moms and there I was in the parking lot of the mall telling her they wouldn't give her any candy if she didn't wear the hat. So wait, that makes me a liar as well because I had to give her an "M" to get her to keep it on. Bad Mommy!
Next we were off to the community center here in Port Orchard that has games set up for the little ones to play. Lexie LOVED LOVED LOVED it!!!
She really enjoyed doing the "cake" walk (they gave out prizes instead of cakes thank goodness) and she would just jump in the middle of the game and follow around whenever she'd see the kids walking on the numbers. The "fish" for candy in the colored paper was a big hit too. As you can see from the golfing pictures, a Tiger Woods she's not. At one point it seemed that she thought a few extra clubs might help her game...not!
She couldn't get enough of the face painting. This very kind older lady did it and Lexie just kept turning her face to have another one done or when we left she would go into a room and then go back to her again. That's when she put the "flaw flaw" on her hand because she had run out of room on her cheek. It was very sweet and the lady could actually paint unlike the young girl who did her at the pumpkin patch.
By our third trip to the face painting table I was dragging and so was her hat. It was more than time to go but my little party animal really didn't want to. I did resist bribing her once again and just put her coat on and left as quickly as possible. Over 5 hours of Halloween fun was more than enough for my little two year old Jeannie even if she didn't know it. A quick late dinner and she was crashed the minute her little head (minus the hearts) hit the pillow.
PS - I had to include the picture of Lexie at her dance class on Wed since they all were encouraged to wear their costumes. Aren't they all adorable!!

It's Time to End Bad HIV Laws!
In more than 30 states, people living with HIV can be tried and imprisoned simply because a partner accuses them of hiding their HIV status.
While originally thought to promote disclosure of one's HIV status, there's no proof these laws work. And they run counter to public health by discouraging HIV testing and treatment and perpetuating stigma. Join the Human Rights Campaign, National Center for Lesbian Rights, and Center for HIV Law & Policy as we raise awareness and work to end bad HIV laws. Watch and share the video below to get involved using the hashtag #EndBadHIVLaws!

My, my, how time does fly! This time, twenty-two years ago, I was one miserable mom-to-be with swollen belly, swollen legs, and swollen feet.
It was worth it!
Dear Son was off to college yesterday for another round of academic stimulation, so we are planning to celebrate his big day this weekend.
We spoke early this morning. Before his dad and I could call him, he was calling us to find out if he had a 8 o'clock class or not. Seems in the hulla-balloo of him packing and leaving his class schedule was left behind. Yes, Mom and Dad are still needed.:)
This picture was taken in July at a family wedding. Dear Daughter is on the right, Dear Son is in the middle, and Dear Niece is on the left.
A much younger version of Dear Son was published along with my birthday wishes from last year.
Happy Birthday, Matthew! We are very proud of you, and love you very much!

Does he know what future studies will be his focus? Exciting time!
- EHT said...
Let's see.....he was a music major (a voice from Heaven), then it was Chrisitan ministry, then Christian Studies, then Business, followed by Christian Studies, and now History.
He's young....He has time. We are confident a degree is in the works. :)
It is an exciting time for him...I remember my first few years out of high school. You just want to do a little bit of everything!

NBC will partner with Yahoo! to offer exclusive original episodes of its new comedies — "Up All Night" (Wednesdays, 8-8:30 p.m. ET) and "Whitney" (Thursdays, 9:30-10 p.m. ET) — that will be streamed and promoted on the site prior to the regular network broadcast beginning on the morning of Tuesday, September 27.
The exclusive first look at this Wednesday's (September 28) episode of "Up All Night" features guest stars Will Forte ("Saturday Night Live") and Jorma Taccone ("Saturday Night Live").

News from around the country and around the globe
As Chris (Will Arnett) tries to get Reagan (Christina Applegate) to bring the sexy back into their relationship with some advice from his new friend Reed (Forte). Meanwhile, when Ava (Maya Rudolph) finds out her ex-boyfriend, B-Ro (Taccone), is getting married, she blames Reagan for the advice she gave her that caused them to break up.
Viewers streaming "Whitney" will get an advance look this Thursday's (September 29) which features happily unmarried couple Whitney (Whitney Cummings) and Alex (Chris D'Elia) also finding new ways to keep it sexy. When Whitney realizes that she and Alex have never gone on an official first date she comes up with an unusual idea to recreate the past. Taking this role-play very seriously — as only Whitney can — she insists that they both follow the "rules" of a first date, including pretending that they don't know each other. Thus the two awkwardly go to dinner and cap off the night by sleeping in separate apartments. Continuing the charade into the next day the two turn to their friends to plot their next moves.

In addition to the exclusive premieres, users can access previously broadcast episodes of "Up All Night" and "Whitney" on Yahoo!.
"Up All Night," created by Emily Spivey (NBC's "Parks and Recreation" and "Saturday Night Live") and executive produced by Lorne Michaels (NBC's "Saturday Night Live" and "30 Rock"), is an irreverent look at modern parenthood.
"Up All Night" is a Broadway Video and Universal Television production. Along with Michaels and Spivey, Jon Pollack ("30 Rock") and Erin David ("Saturday Night Live") serve as executive producers. Christina Applegate, Eric Kranzler and Andrew Singer are producers.

NBC's new multi-camera comedy "Whitney" is a hilarious look at modern day love, which centers around Whitney (Whitney Cummings, "Chelsea Lately") and Alex (Chris D'Elia, "Glory Daze"), a happily unmarried couple. Together for three years, the duo is in no rush to get hitched, which seems to get a mixed response from their friends.
"Whitney" is produced by Universal Television in association with Stuber Pictures. Stuber ("The Break Up"), Quan Phung, Betsy Thomas ("My Boys") and Barry Katz ("Last Comic Standing") are executive producers along with Cummings and executive producer/writer Andy Ackerman ("Seinfeld," "The New Adventures of Old Christine"), who directed the pilot.

In 1st-cent. CE Palestine in the time of Jesus the word was a form of address, equivalent to 'sir' but by the end of the century and in rabbinic literature it is used for a teacher, and this development is reflected in the usage in the four gospels.
The word occurs in Mark (9: 5; 11: 21; 14: 45) as a polite, even reverential, form of address when spoken by Peter. In Mark 10: 51 the form Rabbouni (NRSV marg.) is used by the blind man who then follows Jesus 'on the way'. There is a suggestion of the greatness of Jesus.
In Matthew only Judas addresses Jesus with this greeting and the sense is plainly hostile (26: 25, 49). For in this gospel rabbis are among the adversaries of Jesus and they are painted in unfriendly colours: they like to receive deferential treatment and to be called 'sir' and they are assuming the role of teachers (23: 8) of the Law. Matthew keeps Jesus at a distance from them; he is not to be associated with them and the hateful Pharisees, and his disciples are forbidden to arrogate to themselves the title (23: 8).
The word is not found in Luke, but it is quite frequent in John where Jesus is addressed by the word at 1: 36–8, 49 by two disciples and by Nathanael. The evangelist explains that the Hebrew word means 'teacher', and in 3: 2 Nicodemus calls Jesus a rabbi because he can perform 'signs'. Members of the crowd call him rabbi after the feeding of the 5,000 (6: 25). When Mary Magdalen encounters the risen Jesus, she first mistakes him for a gardener and calls him 'sir' (Greek, kurie) but when she recognizes Jesus he is Rabbouni, 'my Teacher' (20: 16).
The use of the word in Mark and John conveys a suggestion of Jesus' public ministry and puts him on the same level as the scribes, with whom he debated (Mark 12: 28).

Just hours before the Evans Fire Protection District was set to honor its first fire marshal with a grand funeral service Friday, the department got the call that a garage was on fire in the middle of the city.
Friends, colleagues and family members of Doug Melby, who served 44 years with the fire department and who passed away Sunday, said Melby was watching over his fellow firefighters – probably in his own mischievous way – as they battled the fire that morning.
"Doug was with us – more than likely laughing at us, getting at us," said Brian Lee, firefighter and chaplain with the Evans Fire Protection District, who officiated Melby's funeral service.
About 300 friends, family members and fellow firefighters attended the service at Greeley Wesleyan Church for Melby, 64, who joined the then-volunteer fire department in Evans at 16 and became its first paid employee as fire marshal.
As part of a traditional memorial service, a procession of fire engines, trucks and cars followed one of the original Evans fire engines that carried Melby's casket from Greeley to Evans. The department had given Melby the old engine No. 1 as a retirement gift in 2010.
"It was a nice, nice send off for him," said Tom Hamblen, who started as a volunteer firefighter alongside Melby in 1966. "It was pretty important to him."
Melby followed in his father, former Evans Fire Chief DeLon Melby's, footsteps. Doug Melby served in many positions, including fire chief, over the course of his career. He also worked as a paid firefighter with the Western Hills Fire Department.
Those who worked with Melby described him as a shining example of what a firefighter should be: dedicated and compassionate.
"Doug taught (new firefighters) what the fire service was all about and how to be a contributing member of the fire department, and I'm really thankful for him," Evans Fire Chief Warren Jones said.
Lee, who worked with Melby in his rookie year, said one of his first memories was when Melby took him out in an engine and told him to drive. Lee said rookies aren't normally allowed to drive, and he was nervous, especially when he had to go over a narrow bridge. Lee said Melby gave him solid encouragement – with a signature side of jeering when he was driving slowly.
"He told me I wouldn't have you there if I didn't believe you could do it," Lee said.
Melby married wife Sherry – who served as Evans mayor – on April 1, 1976. As Lee told it, Melby wanted to get married April Fools' Day so he wouldn't forget his anniversary. The couple had two daughters, Michelle Shaffer and Nikki Hader.
Shaffer said growing up, she remembers that her father was completely dedicated to the service of others. She said she's proud of her father's service to the community.
"He missed many birthdays and anniversaries and walked out on dinners to go save someone else's life," Shaffer said.
Hader said in a letter to her father, which Lee read aloud, that her father even kept his pager on during her entire wedding.
Shaffer, who said she was always a daddy's girl, said her favorite memories of her dad were fishing and hunting with him, especially on their trips to Canada with their family friends, the Premer's. Shaffer said her father had a hand in training crew members on helping land helicopters, and he was exceedingly proud when she became a MedEvac nurse.
"He was so super proud when I got on the flight team," she said. "That was all he talked about."
Hader said she remembers her father bringing fire engines to her schools as a child.
"I would always brag that you were my dad," she said in a letter to her father, which Lee read aloud at the service.
Hader said her children, Dillon and Ashlee, and her sister's son, Brandon, were "the highlight of his life," and he loved watching the grandkids play sports.
"You will definitely have the best seat in the house for their sporting events, and cheer loudly," Hader wrote in her letter.
Shaffer said it was just after their last trip to Canada earlier this year that Melby learned he had cancer again after beating it years ago. She said Melby passed away a month after his diagnosis and just a day after a party held in his honor, which about 150 people attended.
"He said, 'I held on for that party, and I saw everyone I needed to see,' " Shaffer said.
When someone asked Melby how he was, he'd say, "Better than you think," a phrase Shaffer said he used even as he was in the hospital last week. Shaffer said her father either preferred a Coors Light or a glass of Jack Daniels in his hand, and he always had a toothpick in his mouth.
Surrounding fire agencies pitched in, even taking over the garage fire, to make sure all Evans firefighters had the opportunity to honor their brother. To wrap up the memorial service, a dispatcher called his unit number – No. 41 – over the air three times.
"Evans Unit 41, Doug Melby, has answered his final call," the dispatcher said.
Finally, Lee rang the bell outside Evans Community Complex three times to honor Melby, explaining that a bell would traditionally ring out three times to signify that a fire was over.
Shaffer said Melby's family is grateful for how he was honored, from the procession with engines from Evans and across the county to the MedEvac helicopter that flew over the ceremony.
"They've just gone above and beyond because that was his second family," Shaffer said.
Shaffer said her family and others noticed a few other signs Friday that show Melby is watching over them. She said she found a single toothpick sitting in a chair on her porch that morning, and firefighters said a single hummingbird was flying around the station. Hader said the last time they played volleyball – a favorite pastime of Melby's – a double rainbow appeared above the court.
"I know you are not hurting anymore and you are having the time of your life, Coors Light or Jack Daniels in one hand and fishing rod in the other," Shaffer wrote in her letter read aloud by Lee. "Until we meet again, Dad, live it up and fish on."

You're all set for the day with your to-do list. Your thoughts are organized, you have a plan in mind and you begin to power through the tasks for the day. Then you get an email from your boss asking you to follow-up with a client. Your phone rings and it's your co-worker, asking if you can proofread a document that needs to go out in the next hour. You get another email from a client asking you to revise a proposal you sent them.
These are 'interrupt' goals. Tasks that you hadn't planned on doing but have to get done regardless. They don't exist on your to-do list but they still require your time and attention, which detracts from your daily goals. Next thing you know, the day has come to an end and you haven't completed half of the items on your to-do list.
These 'interrupt' goals may not have been planned but you still need to complete them. When they affect your planned productivity, you have to explain to your boss why you didn't finish the report by its deadline. By taking note of these interrupt goals, you're keeping track of where your time is spent, and will be able to clearly tell your boss and coworkers why you were sidetracked.
They may not seem important enough to record — or you may forget to in the heat of the moment — but as soon as you have time, write these goals down in addition to your other ones. Then, analyze their impact on the rest of your work.
How much time did you lose because of these interrupt goals? Most of these are unexpected, but maybe there's a pattern. Make time allocation in your future to-do lists for possible interrupt goals. When you're working on a project that takes the highest priority — even above these interrupt goals — let your boss and co-workers know what you're working on and when they shouldn't distract you.
They may be 'interrupt' goals, but it's still up to you to take charge of how you handle them and minimize their potential negative impact on your work.
How do you deal with 'interrupt' goals at work?

Whether it was Arkansas Sen. Blanche Lincoln holding off a Democratic challenger or a crop of new female faces claiming November GOP ballot spots, Tuesday's primaries were big on girl power.
Lincoln survived to defend her seat in November, while in California, former eBay boss Meg Whitman won the GOP's gubernatorial line and ex-Hewlitt-Packard honcho Carly Fiorina took the party's Senate nod. Tea Party candidate Sharron Angle captured the right to battle Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid and in South Carolina, Nikki Haley narrowly missed avoiding a GOP gubernatorial runoff in which she'll be the favorite.
- "If there's any theme that came out of yesterday, it was not a Bad Day For Incumbents," blogged NPR's Ken Rudin. "It was, instead, a Super Tuesday For Women."
- Noting the wealth of Fiorina and Whitman, The Christian Science Monitor found even further evidence of women's ascent in politics. "Perhaps it is a sign of how far women have advanced politically that, in some cases, they are now duking it out against other women and using self-made wealth in the process," wrote the Monitor's Linda Feldmann.
- One woman who may have been the biggest winner wasn't even on a ballot: Sarah Palin. Politico's Andy Barr noted that three of the four candidates Palin endorsed, Fiorina, Haley and Iowa congressional candidate Terry Branstad, won or moved into a runoff. Palin proved invaluable by "spotlighting conservatives not well known to the national scene" as well as "validating conservative credentials to an unsure grassroots and even stepping in to deflect nasty attacks," Barr wrote.
- A quirky exception to the electoral influx of estrogen was a man you probably never heard of named Alvin Greene. The unemployed black Army veteran won the South Carolina Democratic Senate primary without a web site or a campaign budget. "It wasn't much, I mean, just, it was—it wasn't much. Not much, I mean, it wasn't much," Greene said when asked how much of his own money he spent in the primary. So that's how guys can win.
