Here's to 2011
Im know im a month behind everyone else but I didn't post any resolutions earlier this month as I hadn't really thought of any. I tend to hibernate during January and any eating or sociallising resolutions would go straight out of the winter.
However with February fast approaching I've decided to kick start the new year after this weekend! I really don't want to make any plans I know I can't stick to but still want to challenge myself.
- This year I will go back onto the Dukan diet from February in order to get in shape for holiday.
- I will not get any parking offences.
- I will start the two projects I've had on my mind for the last few months.
So three, hopefully acheivable tasks. The Dukan diet was so successful when I tried it over the summer and im hoping to have the same results again.
When it comes to parking tickets, clamping and even towing im useless, I dread to think what they add up to, last years alone could have bought a Mulberry bag - shocking I know.
The two projects i'll reveal a little more when things get off the ground, both I want to start as hobbies and see where they take me.
How have you got on with any resolutions you made in January, how are you managing to stick to them?

Don't you hate it when....
You have an item on your wish list for some time but you never get round to buying it. You spy it at half price, it arrives and you excitedly try it on and Oh, it just doesn't look good......!
That's exactly what happened, I wanted the House of Harlow Abalone Starburst ring and pendant for ages. My-Wardrobe had them in the sale for half price, I finally get them and the pendant looks great. The ring however takes over my entire hand, it covers three of my fingers and looks like a satellite dish on me. Back they go.
I never usually wear gold but would have liked both items to wear together so both are heading back.
Oh well, what's next on the wish list....
What's your most disappointing purchase once it has arrived?

Clean them everyday
I have to hold my hands up and admit I am terrible at shampooing my make-up brushes, I always think, I'll wash them at the weekend and then conveniently forget..! My brushes aren't heavily used infact my blusher brush is the only brush that is used daily. Foundation, bronzer and eyeshadow are more likely to be once a week. I decided to try a daily brush cleaner and finally ordered one before Christmas and have been using it for a few weeks now.
I chose between the Bare Minerals daily brush cleaner 133mls £6.99 and the E.L.F version 250mls £3.50. For nearly twice as much and half the price I chose the E.L.F cleaner.
This product is a god send for someone like me - two sprays on the brush and a wipe over clean tissue or a cotton pad and you can see the colour coming off, I then leave in to dry. It even worked on my angled brush I had put gel liner on.
It does have a reasonably strong smell, quite medicated which I personally like and the brush really does feel clean the next morning when I go to use it.
You can buy the spray cleaner here and for £3.50 its well worth a try. http://www.eyeslipsface.co.uk/product~prodID~168.htm

New brown leather
Here are a couple of my sales buys. The brown leather shorts are so soft and will be perfect as soon as I can start baring my legs. They are from River Island and were similar to a pair on my Christmas wishlist back in December.
The brown leather and wood sandals feel great to walk in although i've only stepped around the apartment so far! The wooden heel isn't too high and they have a nice height platform with thick yet comfy leather criss crossed straps. These were a Zara buy and will be perfect for my holiday.
What tops would you wear with the shorts? I was thinking of keeping it simple with loose tees tucked in?

Hair heroes
My favourite products shown above and the routine I use to keep my hair healthy.
- Shampoo - with Kerastase, twice as I only wash my hair three to four days.
- Conditioner - Smooth an even layer over the head massaging in and working down to the tips with Kerastase, leave for five minutes if possible.
- Rinse - with mineral water just on your last rinse and you will notice a difference. (it doesn't have to be evian! any cheap supermarket mineral water is fine)
- Wrap with a micro fibre hair towel until just damp.
- Comb gently through using a tangle teezer working each knot out softly.
- Protect and enhance smoothing Morrocan oil through the mids to end and comb through again.
- Air dry if possible once a week.
- Use a hair dryer with various hair settings and only start drying when hair is lightly damp.
- Likewise with hair tools, try and use tongs or straightners with adjustable heat settings.
- Finish with minimal styling products - a quick spritz of hairspray, shine spray, beach spray or texturiser. My choice is bumble and bumble surf spray.
My hair heroes I absolutely couldn't live without are the Tangle teezer - if you don't have one you should have!! They are brilliant at getting out any tangle without any pain.
The next is Moroccan Oil. I have just started using this as my new hairdresser used it on my hair, being an oil I thought it would weigh down my hair ( I have fine hair but loads of it) but it left my hair so smooth, and shiny and incredibly soft without weighing it down at all, in fact I would even say it had more bounce after using it. The oil is absorbed by your hair and even speeds up the drying process - brilliant! If you fancy trying it but don't want to pay the £29, you can buy a trial mini bottle which was £12, it also comes in a light version too and I will definitely be going back for a full size when it runs out.
The products that just missed out were the Touch of Silver shampoo and conditioner I have blogged about here and the Kerastase Ciment Thermique which is a treatment you smooth in after towel drying your hair off, it works to protect your hair from heat damage and works with your straightners and hair dryer. I know i'll go back to using this but for now im really happy with my new Moroccan oil and can't stop raving about it!

H and M Spring has sprung
The new spring collection at H and M is exactly what I want right now and with such good prices, nothing over £35 and mostly around £15, its not going to break the bank. I have the dress, both pairs of trousers, both pairs of sandals and the jumper on my list. If only I could buy some spring weather right now.
What do you think of the collection?

The world is getting smaller and smaller.
As I mentioned on yesterdays post, I celebrated my Birthday whilst I was off, quite a big birthday - 30...!! It was one of my most memorable and I couldn't have wished for a better day. I spent the morning and afternoon with Matt, my sister and her husband and in the evening my whole family and friends from all over the country came out for cocktails at Malmaison followed by a Casino. Far from sobbing about reaching 30 I didn't want to the day to end and stretched the night out as long as possible.
As well as receiving some fantastic presents shown in the post below my biggest present came from Matt who has bought me flights to South America and we're going to do a bit of travelling around Uruguay and Argentina!! My family have paid for my accomodation and some spending money and my sister has even given me a surfing lesson! 8 weeks to go and it can't come quick enough, I am on countdown already. Guidebooks are at the ready!

Slowly but surely, it's coming.
Spring is around the corner and soon we'll all be happy, warmer — and green. The pollen is brutal, but it means the weather won't be cold with killer flurries. What's good about spring is the coming of another baseball season. Soon we'll be about to mortgage the home to afford tickets for four and a warm $7 beer. Good times.
I coached softball and baseball for many, many years. When my girls played, I coached softball and later, when the boys played, I moved to baseball. My grandson will start baseball this year. It reminded me how fun it was back in the day when the kids knew absolutely nothing about the rules. Games were the highlight of the week, simply for the entertainment value.
I had a group of girls, about 5 years old, with no knowledge of softball. I said to myself this was great! I'd teach them fundamentals and get them on the right track for years to come.
Here's how it went at our first T-ball game:
Our first batter hit the ball off the tee. She ran to the bleachers to tell her mother, who urged her daughter to run to first by holding up a Snickers bar. So she ran to first, then continued down the left-field line to the fence where she stood, all proud.
But then she realized that the one fielder on the other team who knew you needed to tag the runner began running after her, followed by the rest of the defense. Sensing this was a fun thing, she laughed and began running along the fence line, followed by those defenders who chose not to stop to build something in the dirt over around first base.
The race is on
As the chase continued, I ran after the group and, coming alongside, I tried to explain that she needed to at least head back in the direction of first or second base while I tried to convince the umpire that running out of the baseline wasn't really a big deal at this level.
The players, now moving like a small herd of giggling cattle, decided this was a good time for a race. The girl with the ball passed my runner and upon arriving at home plate, held the ball up and announced that she was the winner. My runner stopped and the two smiled at one another. Apparently this meant it was time to start the second lap.
My runner at least recognized first base as something significant and headed in that direction. Most of the defenders had been herded up by their coaches and were near the dugout kicking dirt while the coach attempted to review the rules of the game.
My runner stopped at first base, so we decided this was a single.
As game play resumed, my next batter took a swing and hit the tee, not the ball, and decided the ball didn't need to sit there on the dirt all alone. She took a rather impressive golf swing with the bat, knocking the ball toward the outer edge of the infield.
This immediately started another stampede.
What do we do now?
The collective group of red and blue shirts, now more or less running amok in the direction of the ball, seemed a little bored with the goal of the race and slowed to admire the dirt. In seconds, there was a mass sitting, and many dirt mounds were now under construction.
The umpire, all of 15 years old, didn't know what to do as this was an obvious gross violation of the game rules. The other coach and I strolled to the center of the group and took our kids to the respective dugout to review the rules and overall objective:
"Okay, kids, remember that what we want to do is hit the ball with the bat and then run to first base. Remember where first base is?"
"First base?"
"Once you get there, stop and the coach will tell you to run to second base or to stop. Everyone got that?"
"Anyone have questions?"
"I have to poop!"
"Uh, okay." (Looking for parent.)
"Me, too."
"Me, too"
"Me, too"
"Me, too"
"Me, too"
(This is why you need about 60 players on any T-ball team so the game can continue while many kids leave for various reasons.)
Game resumes.
The first batter swings and hits a dribbler just in front of home plate. She politely walks up, takes the ball and hands it to the fielder and then races the fielder to first — and then beyond … again.
The stampede renewed. More dirt mounds were constructed as the umpire, who now couldn't care less about the game, leaned up against the fence and called his girlfriend on his cell phone.
I again sprinted to the outfield area. While running with the girls, I tried to coax the kids, anyone, to give some thought about heading toward second base. As we moved on, I decided third base would be okay since the umpire was no longer in the mix.
The other coach and I, like a couple of border collies, moved in unison as we swept the red and blue shirts back toward the infield and, we hoped, toward some sort of organization.
Plan B
We tried to figure out another strategy. But since it was obvious that in softball the batter has to hit the ball for the game to progress and in our case this would surely start another stampede, we opted for a play date in the dirt and broke out the snacks a bit early.
Many dirt mounds were built on that day and nobody went home crying about losing.
As the years went on and softball and baseball became very competitive, I missed the little kids. So as many of you embark on your first season of T-ball, you need to do two things:
Have fun.

You bring back memories from 30 years ago, when my son played T-ball. He was asking me if we could go out to get ice cream after the game when the ball rolled between his legs. His glove was on his head, and he had just picked me a dandelion…….. Some things never change, thank goodness.

My son played rec baseball until the 4th or 5th grade, before switching into a more competitive league. You're right, the younger years were fun, especially when the mercy rules were introduced for the really little ones. And, the parents in the competitive leagues are a whole different breed.
The last season of rec ball, the boys had good lead and one of the dads, very excitedly, shouted, "Don't worry ~ we've got it in the bag!" This guy was from the UK, so it sounded like "bahg or bog." My husband almost had a coronary ~ his philopshy was to keep the momentum going. Needless to say, they wound up losing. He still quotes that man, accent and all, 9 years later…all in fun, though.

Ah, I remember it well and fondly. The first T-ball game. The first batter hit the ball and actually ran to first base while the infield, outfield and a few from both benches ran to tackle the 3rd baseman who had the misfortune to have picked up the ball. Pound for pound you can't beat 4 year olds for entertainment value.

My oldest daughter played T-ball on a mixed team. One young batter swung mightily a dozen or more times missing the ball and the T every time. His mom yelled encouragement from the stands and was joined by nearly everyone. "Swing Jay, Swing!" became the rallying cry until he figured out we were yelling for him. He turned and the bat bumped the T knocking the ball off. As it rolled (about 12 ") we all leaped to our feet and yelled "Run Jay, RUN!" And run he did. . . straight to third. You know that record-breaking, head forward run (moderately fast stroll) with bent arms furiously working like skinny little pistons? Funniest thing I've seen in years.

This made me cackle!!! Good column!! I got to have the experience of being the mom of the rotating bench warmer before we finally stopped playing little league baseball and moved onto soccer and football!!! My son didnt get the inherited knack of baseball like his uncles. He took after me, I was the girl who begged my mom to take me out of dance and let me play softball, well she did, and I was the girl who was put WAY OUT in the out field, so there I stood with the glove on my head doing my dance routine from the dance class. CLASSIC!!

I have to admit that I thought several times, before clicking on the link for your story. I'm a fan of the good guys catching the bad boys … but, I am now wiping away the laughter tears from my eyes … and remembering many, many years ago when I coached my oldest son's first soccor game. Oh, lordy what a day that was
Steve, thank you for providing us so many minutes of glee in a less then perfect world. Good Job, keep it up.

I always say if you are having a bad day, you just need to find a T-Ball game to watch. There is nothing like the mass pile ups on whoever happens to "field the ball", the detours from first base to centerfield and back to second base. My favorite is when a plane flys over. Both teams just stop and watch. It is pure joy.

Makes me remember the days of coach t-ball. One little girl didn't run to first or thrid, no, she ran straight to 2nd! And I think hearding cats were be a better statement of what it's like trying to round all those little ones up!

I made this one in the corner if a sticky note. Nothing too polished, just a doodle.
Bryan & Brittany
This one was done as a wedding present for a very good friend of mine. Marriage is supposed to signify a new balance of two people and two lives. So what better way to mark the occasion that with an ambigram. The planning for this gave me nightmares. The countless phases this went through was ridiculous. Sometimes it was just one swirl here or a line too long there, but I'm proud I was able to keep it mostly in capital letters, save for the R and the double T. All in all I loved it and I hope the couple does too.
The planning page for this ambigram was very full and it was probably one of the ones I had to come back to the most. At one point, I had even discarded the name and had thought about doing a nickname instead. I was very proud of the end result. It's not always the case that you end up with what you want though; compromising is something you have to do often when making ambigrams.
Marla This one has a musical inspiration to it, seeing as the person this was made for plays the viola.
I think my mind was on a different creative level than usual because I wasn't sure how I was able to pull this name off. I had other drafts in mind, and I was satisfied with them, but once I made this one I was more than satisfied, I was sure this would be it. Hopefully you like it as much as I do.
This one had to have a whimsical feel to it. I'm not the best at very intricate designs, so I figured simple loops eould suffice. It was easy to jump off from the middle ASA combination and I had it rooted in my mind that I somehow had to make one single J transform into an RA. It just took a lot of scratch paper to get it right.
Juan This one should have been one of the easiest ones seeing as it's only four letters long and it follows the 1:1 ratio of letters. But the middle part took me a while because I wanted it the thin line to seem natural and not intrusive. And even after it's done, I feel the N needs to be revised
This one was made for a little boy with the energy of a thousand racecars. So I thought I'd give it an "extreme" look, something that would make it look sleek. I don't think I succeeded and I fought with myself over the S/H in the middle. It suffices to say a revision will happen sometime in the future.
It may be a little hard to read, seeing as the K/OL in the middle is a little more abstract, but I am happy with the end result. I surprised myself with the extension of the N making the "hood" of the A towards the end.

Aug 9 2013: We all have to learn about the basic law of nature: every single creature in this world is born to be unique.
The true importance of an individual in our society does not make much sense to us unless some individual seemly has power over our lives.
A truly effective school in our childhood shall be a small society where everyone growing up developing its character within the best of his/her unique abilities, and as a part of a whole of this small society. Let young students freely try different schools/environments to eventually find a place to feel "comfortable" in communications with others while gaining recognition as a Person with more or less unique qualities.
Nature, which is our ULTIMATE school. However, we never learn about this basic fact of life, or better to say -the most powerful law in our existence- and therefore, our ignorance becomes the very core of all our human-made problems. We mistakenly expect that everyone shall feel and understand others the same way. The morals that we artificially create and glorified: one's rightness, or goodness are based on how one feels about himself -- are the most idiotic and harmful.
All existing man-made systems, including education, healthcare and industries, serve no living person, but only some collective, non-existing prototype. These artificial systems require us to adjust to them obeying their mindless rules.
Smaller diverse communities and small systems that more or less serve different interests and different characters, in the environment that inspires new experience and knowledge, would be a great start for healing our depressed psyche. Well, why not to start with re-thinking education? Why not to start learning about our own human nature from our very uncorrupted early childhood, free from conventions? A very intuitive young mind has great vision that we, as adults, loose quickly as we grow up tamed by our stiff old mentality.

Mimi had a decision to make. Halloween was coming, as was her baby brother, so she needed to secure a costume right away. This was the first Halloween she has cared about (though doubtfully the first she'll remember), so it wasn't much of a surprise when Mimi began peppering me for a costume in September.
"What about this?"
"I want that one!"
"Papa. I don't have this. I need this."
"Papa, I wanna be a princess!"
It was this last one that had me most concerned. Like all proud Papas, I see my little girl as a princess, but I emphatically do not want her thinking she actually is one. There's enough of that trend in her as it is. The last thing I need is to give her a crown and a scepter and make delusion a reality. So it was with great relief that, after failing to secure a princess outfit, Mimi suddenly decided she wanted to be a bumble bee. That's definitely more my style!
A day or two after the bath, Halloween finally rolled around. Mimi was ready. She had her antennae, flashlight, pumpkin, and glow-in-the-dark necklace.

On the cusp of leaving,
Earthly body never more to be.
With no wings,
He's taking a ride above the
clouds ,
Only angels to lift him up
Set him safely in heaven,
Where pain will not touch
him again.
At the side of of our Lord
Peace will be in his name.
Earthly strife all gone.
The angels are calling ,
Whispering his name.

MARSHFIELD, WI (WSAU) - A store manager is charged with stealing 1.3 million dollars from her employer. 42-year-old Bonnie Hartle of Auburndale is accused of taking the money over a period of ten years while managing a Weiler Convenience Store in Marshfield. Hartle has 25 charges for theft in a business setting greater than 10 thousand dollars.
The investigation started last December. Marshfield police say it wasn't easy to trace, but they figure Hartle was pocketing about 1,000 dollars a week while managing the store.
The Weiler family has been friends with Hartle for years, so they were surprised to discover where the missing money was going.
Hartle will make an initial appearance in Wood County Court at 3:00 p.m. this afternoon.

Fantasy Zone - MB
GameZone Review Rating Not Available
Long ago, far away in space, there existed a "Fantasy Zone" where a courageous hero called Opa-Opa fought in a valiant cause to rescue the "Fantasy Zone" from its enemies. In the space year 6216, the interplanetary monetary system collapsed, causing all of the planets to become panic-stricken. According to an official inquiry made by the space guild, someone is leading the Menon planet forces, using them to steal the foreign currencies of the other planets, and with the funds, construct a huge fortress in the "Fantasy Zone." To put an end to their ambitious plans, Opa-Opa promptly takes off for the "Fantasy Zone" where...

Montana folksinger, songwriter and ranch hand Martha Scanlan is here March 13 for Home Routes' fifth "house concert" of the season in the Thompson Public Library's Basement Bijou venue. Ticket prices are $20 and doors will be open at 6:30 p.m. with the performance starting at 7 p.m.
Scanlan, originally from Tennessee, grew up in Minnesota in the upper Midwest, and since 2008 has hailed from Tongue River Valley in southeast Montana, near the Wyoming border. She has been touring and headlining festivals across the United States and Europe since the release of her 2006 debut album The West Was Burning. The Tongue rises in Wyoming in the Big Horn Mountains, flows through northern Wyoming and southeastern Montana and empties into Yellowstone River at Miles City, Montana.
Home Routes is her third tour in the third month of 2012. She was on her Northern Rockies tour with Jon Neufeld, appearing with the Portland, Oregon band Blind Pilot in Boise, Idaho, Salt Lake City, Utah and Boulder, Colorado in January, as well as appearing at the high desert 28th National Cowboy Poetry Gathering in Elko, Nevada last month and also started an east coast tour in New York City and Philadelphia with Amy Helm, Byron Isaacs and Dan Littleton.
She first gained national recognition for her songwriting at the Chris Austin songwriting contest at Merlefest at Wilkes Community College in Wilkesboro, North Carolina in 2004, where she won awards in two categories. With the Reeltime Travelers, she was featured on the soundtrack for the film Cold Mountain, produced by Grammy Award winner T-Bone Burnett. Since then she has collaborated and shared the stage with a variety of roots musicians including Alison Krauss, Emmylou Harris, Levon Helm, Ollabelle, Black Prairie, Ralph Stanley and Norman and Nancy Blake.
While The West Was Burning evoked western landscapes, her most recent album released in 2010, Tongue River Stories, takes the listener right into the heart of the vast and quiet landscape with its meadows and cottonwood groves and the decades-old cabin where the songs were written and recorded. Arrowheads lie next to fossils next to 100-year-old cedar fence posts alongside tracks of horses set rock solid in the mud from rain.
This is the third season for Home Routes in Thompson.
Thompson is part of the "Borealis Trail" circuit of Home Routes in Saskatchewan and Manitoba. Other circuits on Home Routes include the Yukon Trail; Salmon-Berry in British Columbia; Cherry Bomb and Blue Moon in British Columbia and Alberta; Chautauqua Trail in Saskatchewan and Alberta; CCN SK in Saskatchewan; Central Plains in Saskatchewan and Manitoba; Jeanne Bernardin in Manitoba, Agassiz in Manitoba and Ontario; Estelle-Klein in Ontario and Québec and the Maritimes in New Brunswick, Nova Scotia and Prince Edward Island.
Other stops beside Thompson on the Borealis Trail include Buena Vista Sask.; Porcupine Plain Sask., Prince Albert, Sask., Annaheim, Sask., North Battleford, Sask.; Green Lake, Sask.; Melfort, Sask.; The Pas; Minitonas; Eriksdale and Winnipeg.
Home Routes kicked off in Thompson on Sept. 22, 2009 with a show by Corin Raymond and Sean Cotton, who make up The Undesirables. They were followed during season one by Rodney Brown, Thunder Bay, Ont.'s award-winning singer and songwriter; Rob Lutes, a singer-songwriter from Montreal, whose work has sometimes been compared to John Hiatt and Fred Eaglesmith; Toronto's Hotcha!, with Beverly Kreller on vocals, bodhrán, accordion, guitar, kazoo, mouth trumpet, spoons, and Howard Druckman, also on vocals, guitar, slide and harmonica; followed by John Wort Hannam and Matt and Shannon Heaton, a Boston-based husband-and-wife duo offering traditional – and non-traditional – Irish music on Irish wood flute, guitar, bouzouki and accordion.
Season two was kicked off by rhythm and blues/folk performer Treasa Levasseur, daughter of Leon Levasseur, a former Roman Catholic priest who was pastor of St. Lawrence Church here in the late 1960s. Her parents (her mom was the lay choir leader in The Pas) left Thompson in 1969. Treasa was born in Winnipeg, raised in North Bay and now lives in Toronto.
Arthur O'Brien, from Bay Bulls on the Southern Shore, near St. John's, and Fred Jorgensen, from Bull's Cove on the south coast of the remote Burin Peninsula, both baritones and half of the four-member Newfoundland band The Navigators, closed out season two with their acoustic and electric guitars, whistles, mandolins, bazookas, bodhráns and fiddles. Also giving concerts last year were Hunter River, Prince Edward Island folk artist Meaghan Blanchard; bluesman Lester Quitzau, originally from Edmonton and now from the Gulf Islands of British Columbia; and singer-songwriter Katherine Wheatley, originally from Parry Sound, Ont., who graduated from university with a geology degree and spent five seasons roughing it in the bush, including four seasons working north of Flin Flon.
Other performers besides Scanlan this season have included Phil Churchill, Geraldine Hollett and Andrew Dale, making up the Newfoundland trio The Once; John Showman and Chris Coole from Toronto's five-member Foggy Hogtown Boys; Conjunto Roque Moreira, a rock n' roll, reggae, funk, and soul fusion outfit from Teresina, Brazil, with world and Brazilian rhythms such as samba, forró, baião and bossa nova; and guitar-playing songstress Carolyn Mark, the long-time host of the Hootenanny in Victoria every Sunday and founder of The Vinaigrettes, an all-girl surfy twang popster band. After The Vinaigrettes, Mark did brief stints in such bands as The Metronome Cowboys and The Fixin's.
Manitoba-born fiddler, singer and composer Anne Lederman, who now lives in Toronto, along with Emilyn Stam, a pianist originally from Smithers, British Columbia, who also lives in Toronto now, close out the season April 25.
Winnipeg-based Homes Routes is a not-for-profit organization. The cost of admission goes to the musicians, while Lisa Evasiuk, the local house concerts Home Routes host, puts them up or otherwise arranges accommodation while they're in town. O'Brien and Jorgensen crashed at now-school board trustee Janet Brady's last April after their show – but not before a second kitchen party in Brady's own Lynx Crescent kitchen.
Home Routes says it "owes its existence to the theoretical footprint of the Chautauqua travelling shows of the late 19th and 20th century."
The Chautauqua movement was named after the Chautauqua Lake Sunday School Assembly founded in New York State in 1874 as an educational experiment in out-of-school, vacation learning. It was broadened almost immediately beyond courses for Sunday school teachers to include academic subjects, music, art and physical education.
"In the time before radio the Chautauqua was the cultural conduit between the urban east and the rest of North America. Traveling by horse and wagon, the Chautauqua was 'The Medicine Show' bringing the latest in show tunes, science, the gospel, fashion, snake oil and whatever was the latest invention for the modern kitchen. Almost every community had a 'Chautauqua Society' laying the groundwork locally and producing the show. The arrival in any rural community of the annual Chautauqua was a big event that was celebrated across the continent and even today, almost a hundred years later, the word "Chautauqua" still reverberates in existing concert venues and in cultural and educational institutions. The travelling shows disappeared as radio and the movies grew in prominence and those mini extravaganzas became a wistful lingering memory in North American history.
"The modern folk music 'House Concert' was born out of necessity in the early 1950's just at the time when the folk 'boom' began. In 1952 The Weavers had a number one radio hit with Leadbelly's 'Irene Goodnight' and the song ignited a mini folk song revival; suddenly folk music was popular. City people started buying banjo's and guitars and fiddles and began to learn the folklore that country people were born with and they began to create new songs about the world as they saw it then and ever since. There simply weren't enough places to play for all the young and enthusiastic men and women who decided that being folk musicians was for them and so the grass roots invented a grass roots solution to the problem. People discovered that their living rooms made fine venues for acoustic music and began what has turned out to be a long tradition of home based intimate presentations of folk music. What has been consistent has been the extraordinary level of excellence.
"Home Routes is a rough amalgam of these two historical approaches formulated and delivered with respect for all the work that went before we came along and re-kindled these excellent ideas. The volunteer hosts, like the Chautauqua Societies before them, play the role of community cultural animator. The musicians, like musicians and vaudevillians have for all time, get to work and play for these very special networks of vibrant committed people. The inter relationship between performer and host provides community after community with access to a brilliant array of artists. There is a trade off inherent between the parties, the artist brings their musical skills and the host contributes the effort to bring out an audience. One doesn't work without the other. The thought of "circuits" of house concerts flows logically from the experience of the Chautauqua and equally from the current needs of the communities and of the artists."

LANSING, Mich. (WLNS) - The University of Michigan and Wayne State will take a financial hit this week from the state legislature because they extended their contracts with university employees, which means the new Right-to-Work law will not impact those employees. Michigan state, however, will be held harmless.
When the governor signed the RTW legislation in December, the republicans did not anticipate this would happen. Instead of protesting in the streets, union leaders went back to their employers and asked them to re-open their existing contracts with the hope those contracts could be extended before the RTW law took effect later this month.
Wayne State University just did that and claim they saved $10 million dong it. The University of Michigan did a five year extension, too. Now, the House higher education budget committee is prepared to slice state aid to those two schools.
At Michigan State University, labor did ask the msu board of trustees to do the same thing, but the university president and the board declined to do that because MSU might lose $15 million which could have resulted in higher tuition costs.
Some republicans are not happy that the other two universities would try to allegedly circumvent the RTW law even though there was nothing illegal about the way they did it.
"I would not rule it out. If there is some benefit, that is one thing and I would have to consider that also," said Senate GOP leader Randy Richardville.
But Richardville reports lawmakers deliberately delayed the implementation of RTW to local boards to exercise local control and re-do contracts if both sides wanted to do that.
The show down, excluding MSU, is set for Tuesday.

Campbell's tax hike: Mishandling the road toll
Raising the state's gas tax is never popular, which is why New Hampshire's tax is the lowest in New England. It was last increased in June of 1991 - three months before Seattle grunge band Nirvana released its breakthrough album, "Nevermind." Next year Nirvana will be eligible for induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame.
A year ago, state transportation officials told legislators that the 10-year Highway Fund was $1.3 billion short of the money needed to complete every project. Campbell's bill would raise about $1 billion. But is everything in the 10-year plan essential? (It includes a commuter park-and-ride lot, for instance.) And does the bill raise this money in a responsible way?
Such a big economic jolt as Campbell proposes is never good; it is less desirable in a sputtering economy like this one. Campbell might have made more headway had he proposed a very small increase over four years, targeted to essential ?projects. Instead, he went for the whole $1 billion in three years, raising concerns that the money will not be well spent.
A small gas-tax hike might have sailed through the Legislature. Now Campbell faces a fight that might have been avoided with better planning.

MSN's relationship expert Dr. Pam Spurr flags up the pros and cons of your couple-type.
Relationship research repeatedly shows we're drawn to particular partners because they fulfil some sort of family 'script' from childhood.
You learn how to relate to others by watching your parents relate to each other. And if someone you meet makes you feel like you've "known them all your life" you can bet they fulfil a 'role' you're familiar with - probably dating back to your childhood.
There are many variations of couple-types but here are key ones from the world of celebrities that you might recognise in your own relationships.

Using the Copier
- Who Can Use the Copier? Anyone who works in the department can charge copies to a grant number for research or teaching uses. People who work in the Physics and Astronomy Department can make copies for personal use. These copies are tallied approximately once a month and a bill delivered to your departmental mailbox.
- Research- and Teaching-Related Copies. The copy machine uses code numbers for all teaching and research accounts. These numbers are available from the office staff. If you don't know the grant number to use, contact your advisor or supervisor, someone in the Business Office or someone in the Department Office for assistance.
- Personal Copies: A clipboard with a list of names and "Personal Xeroxing" across the top is located on the table next to the copy machine. This is the place to record the personal copies you make. Please note the number of copies very clearly under your name. We have had problems in the past with people writing copies under other people's names. The list of names is in alphabetical order based on the last name. If you do not see your name on the list, write your name and the number of copies you made at the bottom of the last page on the clipboard.
If you have a question as to whether your copies should be recorded as departmental or personal, consult the person you work for or see someone in the Department Office.Copiers do not last forever. A few suggestions on how to extend the life of our copier:
- Make sure the lid is closed completely before you copy.
- Do not copy papers that may leave marks on the glass, such as papers with white-out that is still wet.
- Do not put ink-jet printouts in the automatic feeder.
- Be careful not to put anything on the photocopy surface that could scratch the glass. The scratch will be reproduced on everything copied on the machine!
- Do not use any transparencies in the photocopier that aren't specifically marked for use in photocopiers. The photocopier uses a great deal of heat to set toner, and thin transparencies will melt in the copier, causing a gooey mess and necessitating a service call.
- If you aren't sure how to use the machine, ask one of the department staff for assistance.
- If the copier needs toner, paper, etc., notify the office staff and they will handle the maintenance.
- Unless your research is in the area of copier repair, don't try to fix the copier if it breaks. Report all problems to the department office.

Hy There!
I`ve been lurking on the sketchbook thread for quite a long time now, and i was amazed by the improvement some people had in their threads. So i decided to make my own in hope to get some motivation and inspiration from you guys and hopefully get my skills to the next level.
So, lets get started.
I bought my first tablet last year mid november, and thats the point where i started forcing myself to draw as much as i can.
Here are a couple of pieces i made, mostly from reference.

Some Painting Studies. Original paintings from John Singer Sargent.
Great start to your sketch book, I look forward to more!
I like your Sargent studies. Good work. Keep doing those.
My Blog and My Sketchbook
great start! keep it up!
Thank you guys for your feedback, i will update this thread as frequently as i can.
Here`s a couple of painting studies i made at the weekend. I really like the rough look paintings have, so expect more in the future.
Comments and constructive critiques are more than welcome.
The first one is a piece by Pino.
And one from Richard Schmid.
Nice studies! Very promising first page.
My DeviantART & my Sketchbook.
awesome start man, and very nice brushwork i must say, keep it up!

Destroy your weaknesses! theres nothing more to it! stop bitching grab that pencil and sketch Away!
Overtoom: Thank you! Hopefully more pages will come with better work.
lionheartGFX: Thank you for your comment. My brushwork is something that i`m not happy with. Thats why i`m making those painting studies. I`m hoping to get my brushwork more expressive with time.
Started a "quick" nude study on the weekend. So after three days(yep quick right?) of constant tweaking it turned out like this.
Original photo by Marcus Ranum
The major forms are reading, i`m not happy with the rest of it, but i`m calling it done anyway. Turned it 90 degrees CCW to make it a bit more interesting.
What do you guys think?
Self note: Next time work with higher resolution and your brushes will not pixelate.
Great stuff u got going on. Keep up the good work.
Thank you EduM, hopefully there will be more and beter stuff in this sketchbook.
So lately i was working on my anatomy skills. I was pretty happy with this one... until i finished it. Now all i can see are mistakes.But thats probably part of the learning curve. Identifiing your mistakes and working on them. Next up, more anatomy i guess.
Original by Vincent Romero
Self Note: working with textured brushes is fun, also it gives more visual interest to the eyes.
Very nice start. The studies are great. That being said, try to figure out where you want to go with your art, that will give you a general idea, a path to take. For instance if you wanna go for concept art, you'll need to work on your imagination work etc.
interesting studies man that sargent is preety good,would be cool to post some stuff from the imagination as well.

Sponsored Deals
They're like ads, but good.
OK, yes, companies pay a little something to be Sponsored Deals. But we don't allow just any old crap in this section. Sponsored Deals are proposed to us by other retailers, manufacturers, and even other daily deal sites. If we find the deal compelling enough that our members will appreciate us bringing it to their attention, we'll feature it here. Believe it or not, we have a reputation to uphold. If your store would like to be considered for this space, please contact us for details. But if your deal is lame, or sketchy, no amount of money will let you buy your way in.
Community Deals
It's whatever you want it to be.
Pretty much, anyway. This is where you find the deals that wooters like you have ferreted out and brought to light. We're thinking it'll turn into a massive database of discounted products from around the Web, constantly expanding to absorb the newest deals from the very moment their prices are slashed, with each deal immediately rated by hordes of savvy voters to spotlight the very greatest deals in the world today. Hey, we can dream, right?
We use a fancy algorithm to determine which deals are catching the most buzz – they're under the Popular tab, which is the default view of this section. You can look for the most popular deals today, this week, or this month. The Fresh tab features the most recently submitted deals, so that's where to look for deals that everybody else doesn't know about yet. And the Search bar does what a Search bar does, only, uh, much wootier! Yeah! Right on!
Ask The Community
They probably won't bite.
Organic bullets? Vegetarian haggis? Cheap tickets to Antarctica? The best high-performance sweatsocks for under $100? If you're looking for a deal that doesn't appear to show up in our Community Deals section, throw the question to your fellow cheapskates. Or answer a question for one of your fellow cheapskates. Or vote for your favorite questions, or your favorite answers, or… maybe we should call this section "Ask, Answer, Comment On, And Vote In The Community", but that won't fit on the page.

Those who expressed thanks for the addon -- you're most welcome. I've seen an influx of clear violations on my server recently and finally decided to do something about it.
@Syme: The default report message specifically mentions the RP policy if playing on an RP realm, indirectly mentioning that it is indeed an RP server.
Regarding the diacritics removal -- I'm very sad about that. Although diacritic-heavy names might still violate other categories.
@Cakeordeath: The addon includes several features to discourage "report griefing" or what have you. For example, it includes categories of violation that make the user consider how exactly the name violates policy (e.g., Leet speak, sexual, drug reference, etc.). It does not allow reporting 50 names en-masse.
@Cynra: Yes, reporting several names at once is convenient for players and GMs alike, but 15 seems like a lot. Recently a player asked GM Syndri about the ideal size, and he replied 5 or so: http://forums.worldofwarcraft.com/thread.html?topicId=5784380534&sid=1
@Juliah: Couldn't agree with you more. Thanks Daniel for continuing to bring these issues up and showing Blizzard that we do indeed care.

Director Dr. Michael Doran, Assistant Director Jack Shelley-Tremblay, and Honors Student Cassie Fambro
attended the 2011 National Collegiate Honors Council Meeting in Phoenix, AZ, this week.
What an amazing event!
Cassie was nominated for Honors Student of the year, and represented the Program and the University very well. We learned a tremendous amount about honors programs and colleges from around the country.
Please visit the website (above) or click here to see the complete conference program.2010
Honors students are involved in many intramural sports, including water polo, soccer, softball, and flag football.
Every year incoming freshmen are required to attend the Honors Retreat. From 2005 until 2010, the retreat was held at Camp Beckwith, where honors students completed a low ropes course. This year's retreat was held at held at Camp Grace, a privately owned and operated property spanning over 220 acres in Mobile, Alabama. The facilities include: wheelchair accessible pathways, 48 air conditioned log cabins, three air conditioned multi-purpose buildings, a 60'x80' covered pavilion/dining hall, two bath houses (including one which is handicapped accessible), a fully stocked 18 acre lake and a lighted Odyssey III High Ropes Course. These amenities combine to provide a fun and adventurous feel that one would expect from a traditional summer camp.
At the Honors Retreat, new students get to know each other and older honors students as well.
Upperclass honors students help with peer advising, where freshmen honors students receive assistance scheduling classes and understanding degree requirements.
To earn the coveted red honors polo shirt, students volunteer to help out on Interview Day and during Freshman Orientation.
The Honors Center is located inside the Seaman's Bethel Theater. Here students hold meetings, have class, study, and have fun!
A computer lab is available to Honors students inside the Bethel.
