A Lighter Start to 2013: Three (Easy) Projects to Tackle Now
By now, many of you have joined our January Cure and are pumped to spend the next four weeks purging, organizing, cleaning and decorating your way to a happier, healthier home in 2013. And that's great -- a new year is a new start, and what better way to welcome it than with a metaphorical bang? But what if you like a slightly quieter, slower start to the new year?
After the hustle and bustle of the holidays, I'm not quite ready to break out my floor sander and label-maker just yet. I do, however, love to tinker with my home, and making positive changes in January isn't something I want to avoid, per se. So if you're like me, in lieu of a major home overhaul, I'm offering up three simple projects for your consideration, all of which I do yearly with great success.
Clean Out Your Closet(s)
My predilection for post-holiday sales-shopping means this is second nature to me. After all, you've got to have somewhere to put your new stuff! Spring will be here before you know it, so you might as well make room for new things now.
January also feels like a natural halfway point in the season; I find that if I haven't worn something so far this winter, I'm unlikely to. Alter, donate or pass on as necessary, and check out this post for more closet-clearing inspiration.
Lighten Your Digital Load
This one's easy to do from the comfort of your sofa (providing you have a laptop; otherwise you'll have to move to your desk). A lot of junk can build up on your computer over the year, and now is the time to clear it out. Delete that which you don't need, and store what you do (January is a great time to go buy that external hard drive you've been meaning to pick up).
Also take the time to unsubscribe from newsletters you no longer read, delete old email and store accounts you no longer use, and make sure all your software is up to date. You'll feel better for it, and your computer will thank you.
Organize (and Display!) Your Photos
Sometime this month, I'll sit down and create a 2012 photo book of my holidays, events and get-togethers from the past year. This gets the photos off of my computer and into a tangible form that I and others can actually enjoy (not to mention it's super-fun reliving all the great moments). I've also chosen a few of my favorite snaps to print and frame, since I've made it a personal intention to display more personal photos around my home.
What do you think of these bite-sized projects? Do you prefer them to a full-fledged Cure, or are you more of an all-or-nothing type? Have any other manageable home-improvement ideas to share?

I have been "unsubscribing" a lot this morning, but Apartment Therapy STAYS!
A big yes on the "display your photos" idea! I would love pointers to where I can find affordable/DIY photo frames that are not boring. I have tons of photos I would like to display but don't have the budget for 20 photo frames - even a cheap frame like the IKEA stuff adds up at $4.99 a pop, plus the cost of plexiglass to replace the glass (I live in earthquake country).
Any idea where that plant vase/holder came from? It is amazing!
I second that Matt. Want!
Try going to craft stores like Michael's, Jo-anne's etc.
They have a circular on line and very good coupons in store.
The craft frames there sometimes go deep discount and the wood ones can be a couple dollars. If you have paint or want to buy spray paint they instantly become Perfect!
Tip: if you're hanging on the wall and not sure exactly where you want them, trace each one on any paper and use those to move around easily on the wall until you have your design
Ditto about the plant stand. Where can this lovely piece be found?
The plant stand is called the Bullet Planter, you can buy it at Design Within Reach. See here: http://www.dwr.com/product/bullet-planter-short.do?from=Search&cx=0
Looks like it can even be used as an Ice Bucket! I love DWR
Thrift store are often great sources for photo frames. You may have to check back several times to get 20 in the style and sizes you need - you'll have the best luck with cheap and simple styles like those from IKEA. Fortunately, frames are fairly easy to paint to get one uniform color.
Dunno about the plexiglass, though - you may just have to cough up for that.
I love displaying personal photos, but since moving into a small home and trying to live in a more clutter-free environment (more conducive to cleaning!), I have trouble finding a place to display them. Most of our wall space is taken up by art or windows, and there is not much in the way of flat furniture surface for display. Does anyone have any ideas for display that don't involve having to frequently move frames for dusting?
Looks like an ice bucket to me.
Cleaning my floors gave me that perspective on my apartment yesterday. After years of being a regular AT reader (which inspired me to become a constant un-clutterer), this is the first time life has aligned so that I can try to follow The Cure.
I identified a few awkward spots in my apartment...some I could quickly address (and did) while others...I have to figure out what to do.
There are so many fun/creative ways to display photos with the help of Pinterest and Google you can definitely find some ideas that work.
Here are a few ideas:
You could also collect cheap frames from thrift stores and then spray paint them all one color.
so far this new year i've been tackling one cabinet/drawer/section of closet every other day. since the areas a relatively small it's not a huge time commitment, and i feel great when it's done. just yesterday i cleaned out my Tupperware shelf and recycled all the old containers, ones without lids, etc. great feeling at it only took 20 minutes!
I put those three things on my to-do list for January (with a bunch of other small projects actually). I already did #2 on New Year's Day. The closet is on the list for this weekend because the Big Sisters will be in the neighborhood and they pick up clothes. That way they won't sit around.
I ordered pictures from favorite vacations before Christmas so I would be ready for my photo-book project. That one will take up a couple of weekends, hoping to have it done by spring.
IKEA has frames (or used to anyway) with plexiglass in them, not sure what sizes they have. Even at $5/frame that might be more cost effective.
What about displaying your pictures without frames? I've seen some great ideas using wire and little clips here on AT.
I believe that the planter is the bullet planter. There are a couple on Etsy right now and a few on EBay.
That plant stand is terrific! It really grabs the eye, especially the green leaves contrasted with the orange vase. $155, ouch.
I have been looking at DIY and wonder if anyone can reproduce that for cheaper?
I always thought digital frames were kind of cheesy until my parents got one. My dad changes it up pretty often and I find it mesmerizing whenever I go home. Rarely do they really look all that nice, but it sure is fun to watch random family photos flick by.
Re-think that "if I didn't wear it yet this winter." Often in the Northeast, the most bitter weather comes in January, February and March. I don't take my extra-heavy sweaters or fleece pants out when I take out the other winter stuff. Instead, they come out in January, when the eary fall stuff can go away. We tend to have more than 4 seasons in NYC, so I try to put clothes away/take out others about 6 times a year!
I'm not doing the cure, but I am working my way through my cubpards and closets offloading stuff. This is phase 1, the easy choices. Later I'll see how ruthless I can be about the harder ones. (Like the cute snowman plate that I use for cookies once a year...) (It doesn't take up much space, BUT...)
Lighten Your Digital Load
Done. I dropped my 20 lb laptop on my foot last week, and replaced it with an Ultrabook. Literally lighter, and it has none of my old data! How wonderful for me.
I'm not doing the cure this year either due to life being what it is for me since I will be needing to move, once I have changed jobs (gotta get on that job search again!) No, not unemployed, but where I work, the pay is pretty bad and hasn't gone up a whole dollar in 5 years. Sad, really.
Add to that, my rent now exceeds any one paycheck so I get help and once I know where I will be working and how much I'll be bringing in, then I'll move. I almost set off to find another place in my price range, but family crisis put the kibosh on that, for now.
Otherwise, I would be really looking at my place and shifting many things around to make room for muses and such as I have boxes that I had already packed that I knew I would not need immediately as I looked.
However, this doesn't mean I can't go through and get rid of cruft and really think things through as to what to look for in my next place, come spring/summer, hopefully.
Dayum, wish there was an edit function as the first paragraph is a total run on sentence!
Oh how I hate it when this happens.
Love that photograph, that's more or less my style, a bit mid century, 70's mod modern all rolled into one space.
I think these items are more my speed. the cure is kicking my butt.
Actually, I think the most essential thing I did to start the year is set up my bill and receipt files, and start fresh with logging my receipts. I HATE bookkeeping, and always put it off until it becomes an overwhelming task. So starting off with a plan and a system for the new year is making me feel really good.
2012 Photo album is done with copies ordered for all who'd like one. Unsubscribing is manageable. I'm having trouble keeping up with the cure. This weekend I managed to buy green cleaning supplies and flowers, but I didn't manage to clean all the floors in the house. I think I may need to generate my own short list. Thank you for the suggestion. I also really like the last comment, setting up systems for managing finances, what a great idea.
For those of you organizing receipts and other documents, you can use https://www.siftsort.com/zooley/jsp/account/login.jsp to organize your important papers. I'm going to have to do it for my sister who has developed dementia, parents who have their litany of illnesses and their financial stuff. You can email your documents and have your bills go directly to your account via your own siftsort email so your regulare email doesn't get cluttered after you unsubscribe to everything. Very secure system to keep important stuff safe and accessible when you need it. Setting it up will take me a while since it's now for my whole family. But imperative now that my sister can't write her last name without help.
@ People who like the planter
It's also available from an online place called Hip Haven. I discovered them from advertisement in Atomic Ranch magazine. They sell the planter for $150, with a $10 discount if you buy two. It comes in 16 colors, including a rattan finish that I particularly like living in hot weather. It also comes in three heights and has three leg finishes, so you can customize.
Hip Haven also has a great collection of MCM lighting fixtures and they sell hairpin legs you can use to make your own MCM-style tables.
Atomic Ranch is a great resource if you are into Mid-Century styling. The ads have introduced me to many interesting retailers.
If you really want to lighten the digital load, rather than an external hard drive think about using a cloud service to store all the non-confidential extras. And by all means, find a cloud backup service. I am very happy with Carbonite but there are others out there. Nothing is lighter than peace of mind!
I did some unsubscribing right before the new year.. I'm still unsubscribing as we speak.. I love the thought of creating photos of memories.. I just have to print out the digital one's.. :o)
Does anyone know what type of plant is in the planter? I own the exact planter and LOVE the color contrast. thanks!
Looks like a jade plant in the planter, nevalicious07.
Good idea - I just went and unsubscribed from a ton of newsletters and sale flyers that I never read. That five minutes saves me the five minutes I waste everyday deleting them. Thanks for the reminder!
I've been thinking it's about time again to clean out my closet. It's been about 6 months (but that was LONG OVERDUE) so I'm sure I missed some things.
I backed everything up a few months ago and organized my photos and deleted old stuff I didn't need anymore.
What type of chair is that?
I much prefer smaller projects after the holidays than big jobs. Doing a small task and seeing the results motivates me much more than the commitment to a full program. These are very doable, thanks!

Graysville Police Chief Charged With Theft
NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) - An east Tennessee police chief is facing charges of theft and misconduct.
The Tennessee Bureau of Investigation said that a Rhea County grand jury has charged Graysville Police Chief Jason Erik Redden with seven counts of official misconduct, two counts of theft over $1,000 and one count of theft under $500.
Redden was booked into the Rhea County Jail on Monday. Online jail records did not indicate if he had retained a lawyer.
The TBI said investigators discovered problems with three of the police department's seized vehicles. The TBI also said agents discovered more than $4,000 in missing money either seized in busts or paid to the department for towing and storage. Officials said they have video that shows Redden taking tools from a truck held as evidence.

Wednesdays have meant fried chicken in Bulloch County school lunchrooms since anyone can remember. But the southern staple has been replaced with baked tenders and popcorn chicken. It is part of the new federal school nutrition guidelines.
"More whole grains, no fried foods. It's been a challenge to bake everything using the kitchen equipment we have," stated Megan Blanchard, school nutrition director for Bulloch County schools. "Living here in the south, it's been a challenge. We've had to really limit our starchy vegetables. We now have vegetable subgroups that we have to meet. "
A reduction in daily calories meant smaller portions too. 10 popcorn chicken nuggets constitutes a meat serving for middle school plates. Traditional deserts have been replaced with fruit servings. The changes, the USDA's first in 15 years, hope to halt the national increase in obesity and Type II diabetes. But the drastic changes, here and elsewhere, came as a shock to some students and parents.
"We've had both negative and positive feedback," Blanchard said.
Some Southeast Bulloch Middle School students vowed on Facebook to stage a lunch boycott Wednesday. However, during WTOC's visit to the school, lunch trays outnumbered lunch boxes tenfold or more.
Blanchard said the menu isn't written in stone. They plan to conduct further taste testing with students, introduce new varieties of fruits and vegetables to get student input while still meeting federal guidelines.

Corian or what else
I have been told that Corian dulls in traffic areas leaving an uneven finish over time, some shiny some dull. Anyone have any knowledge in this area?
Is granite all it is cracked up to be. Is this where I should be looking or is all this new Formica where I can get the best product at the best price.
I realize Formica doesn't handle heat like granite, but that aside Corian,Granite Or Formica, what are your thoughts.
re: cheesemonger
Isn't Zinc soft, does it dent when something heavy is dropped on it or do counter appliances leave impressions? I love the idea. Are there varieties in the color?
re: Tonto
I'm considering zinc for some of the countertops in my kitchen. Old house in an historic district. Yes, it is soft and will dent. The color constantly changes which is the beauty of it or the thing others will hate - depends on your point of view. You can get it pre-aged or pristine and age it yourself with acids like lemon juice and tomato sauce. Sorta organic.
It comes in sheets like Formica and works the same way with the same tools. http://www.metalresources.net/index.p...
re: MakingSense
What MakingSense said is exactly what I like about it. Because it ages, and deforms and gets color variation. Of course, I don't cut on it, I use butcher blocks and plastic boards, but I love the "aged" look it gets.
re: cheesemonger
Thanks MakingSense and cheesemonger. I like the idea. I am in New Orleans, anyone know who works with zinc in NO. Is the cost comparable to granite?
re: Tonto
I talked to the people at the sheet zinc manufacturer and they told me that a good formica fabricator could do the job. Works the same way with basically the same tools. It should be less expensive than granite depending on how complex the countertop is.
I fell in love with the look after seeing an antique zinc-topped table in an antique store on Magazine Street in New Orleans. The patina was fabulous. Zinc is often used by decorators for restaurants and bars because it's like a constantly changing work of art. Not for someone who can't deal with imperfection.
re: ChefJune
We just redid ourt and went wtih Silestone - it is great - easy to clean and durable
The nice thing about Corian is that, after some time, you can sand it back to it's original luster. I had a coffee table made with a Corian top about 20 years ago and it's worked out really well for me. But were I to choose what to use in a kitchen, I would go with granite or zinc. Cost-wise, it's about the same. The biggest problem is keeping it clean. Granite holds a stain if it's not wiped up quickly. I have a marble top kitchen island and would never, ever go with that again. It's a huge pain in the ass to keep clean and stain free. Although for making bread and pasta, it's the tits.
So all-in-all I think you need to decide what you're going to be using it for. For all-purpose I feel granite would work. If you're a baker or a pasta maker, marble - and if you have the means, make sure you can remove part of the marble to refrigerate for puff pastry, etc. For looks and durability, again, granite. For ease of use and long life, Corian.
Granite & marble is not too forgiving. Drop a glass and get out the broom. Solid surface materials (Corian) will offer quite a bit of give. To pollish up the dull areas, use GREEN Scotch Brite pads. They make them to fit on orbital sanders and grinders to save on the elbow grease.
Another option that is fairly new to the market is "RICHLITE" (http://www.richlite.com/countertop/
)Dont freak out when you find out that its paper. The website will link you up to order samples. Get some and see if you can wreck it. I cant and I have power tools. Same as solid surface, a bitof fine abrasive will freshen it up in a hurry.
Best of luck.
I've had Corian and Granite and enjoyed both. I don't chop or dice anything directly on either -- I used lucite chopping boards for that. I do put hot coffee cups and wet glasses on granite and have never had a ring -- but I have the granite sealed. I don't recall if I could do that on Corian. Depending on the look that you want to achieve too. I think that granite is richer looking -- I love the granite yard where i can pick what I want! I'd say it's a matter of taste and price point. As to Formica, I have no experience so I can't comment there. Enjoy.
Tonto -
Check out all the answers to my question. . . happy reading!
I have several friends whose Corian has started to yellow after about ten or twelve years. It really looks dull in one case, and all of them want to replace their countertops. Granite won't do that. I don't put hot pots taken off the stove on my granite without a trivet, but I do put pans out of the oven on it with no problem. Only issue seems to be that it is a hard surface and tends to cause chips on plates or even enameled pots if they are not set down gently. You also should not cut without a cutting board or you can dull your knives. You might want to look into Silestone over Corian if you don't want polished granite.
In my life I have had formica, corian and now have marbles and limestone. I love my current counters. To make a broad brush statement that it stains, it doesn;t stain, it scratches, it doesn;t scratch, it fades, its too hard, a glass will break on it a glass won;t break on it just is not fair. It all comes down to which stone, what are you looking for what is your price point, what professionals do you have in the area, how good/bad you are at upkeep.
So if you are looking for the best product at the best price, you have a long road ahead of you. Figure out what you want and then see if it fits the budget. If not then figure where you can slice and dice.
You might try DuPont Zodiaq quartz surfaces for durability and strength. It's also quite beautiful. (I have it in my kitchen at home.) Similar to Silestone, but the color/texture choices are superior. Here's a link to look up where to buy: http://www.zodiaq.com/zodiaq/a/en/c/I...
Vermont Soap stone is a beautiful material that stands up well to busy kitchens. Google it! I have used it on a number of projects and everyone has been happy with it.
My house is 10 years old now, and the one thing I am still 100% happy with are my decisions on countertops. I have blue pearl granite everywhere except the prep island, which is butcher block.
I put flaming hot cast iron on the granite. It has never stained (because it's a dark color?). It's gorgeous.
The butcher block island would not suit perfectionists, because it stains very easily, but I don't really care. I sand it once in a blue moon. I cut directly on it, no separate boards unless I'm handling raw chicken, beets, etc. Scraps get scraped straight into the sink.
I think it's most important to pick a surface that allows an UNDERMOUNTED SINK. Laminate does not. Shoot me if I ever have to use a sink with a lip around it again.
re: eve
A lot of people don't like sinks with lips around them because crud gets caught under the edge and can be hard to clean. We have an undermount and I really like it - but as with so many trade-offs there is a maintenance issue - albeit not a major one - yhou have to make sure to recaulk the sink periodically to prevent leakage around the edge of the sink where it meets the undersurface of your counter material.
re: eve
Say you are cutting vegies, garlic, whatever. Or you have rolled out a piecrust and there is flour everywhere. When you are finished, you just push everything directly into the sink(or use a bench scraper for the piecrust). Run the disposal. You're done. There is no lip to impede shoving the debris into the sink. There is no lip to CLEAN around when you are finished.
And even if you aren't big on chopping and scraping, there is still no lip to slowly collect crud over time. Maybe it doesn't matter as much to super-clean people, but in my former kitchen, I would periodically try to clean carefully around the lip and....nasty stuff would appear.
Ten years ago, the only (reasonalby common) choices for undermounting a sink were stone or Corian. A few people tried to discourage me from using butcher block where a sink would be because of the water, but I have had no problems. I have been told that some of the newer less expensive options allow undermounting now, but I have quit paying close attention.
BTW, my Mom has Corian and has found that she can put hot pots on it without scorching, in spite of the manufacturer's suggestions. She has the integrated sink and would do it all again except she would not get a white sink again, it has stained. The pale grey on the rest of the counters has not.
I have stainless steel countertops in my kitchen. They have held up to regular, heavy use for almost ten years without any problems. They will dent if you really slam them but that is about it. I also have put very hot pots on them but try to avoid that in general. They do scratch and patina but I like the way it looks. I imagine that you might have a problem with rust if you left a wet, cast iron skillet or something on it but other than that they a great.
Here are some enviromentally friendly options. I've only seen samples of the material - which look really cool - but i dont actually know how well they hold up because I dont know anyone who has them. Most of them are made of compressed recycled paper, believe it or not, and come in a variety of nice colors. Its worth a look, at least.
re: julseydesign
what a great idea, thanks for opening my eyes to "green" options.

The colors of roses can vary. Each color has a different meaning that seems to be redefined over time. But, a red rose has just one meaning.
"A red rose always means love," said Debbie Schmidt, owner of Huntley Floral.
There are lots of red roses filling Schmidt's flower shop on Route 47 this week as she and her staff prepare for Valentine's Day.
February 14 remains the number one holiday for florists, according to www.aboutflowers.com. An estimated 198 million roses were produced for Valentine's Day last year, the site states.
Schmidt received countless red roses from her vendor who gets the flowers from Columbia. The flowers sit soaking in water in her cooler as she starts filling orders this weekend.
A florist for 18 years, Schmidt finds roses are classic, whether a single one or a bunch.
"A single rose can be as romantic as a dozen or two dozen roses," she said.
But mixed flowers are popular, too, she said.
Bouquets of tulips, daisies or daffodils are big sellers on Valentine's Day. According to www.aboutflowers.com, 44 percent of consumers bought mixed flowers last year while 43 percent bought red roses. Rounding out the list: multicolor roses at 29 percent, tulips, carnations and lilies at 23 percent and plants at 20 percent.
A majority of the people buying flowers on Valentine's Day are men, Schmidt said. Her personal experience mirrors national statistics with about 60 percent of consumers men, the About Flowers website states.
Many men wait until the very day to pick out flowers, she said. Schmidt's shop usually gets a rush around 2 p.m. on Valentine's Day. The shop is ready to put together any type of bouquet, she said.
This weekend, the shop will be open Saturday and Sunday and open late on Monday.
If you receive flowers, Schmidt has a few tips to keep them fresh:
*Make sure to use a preservative or add 7-Up or sugar to the water.
*Keep flowers in a cool place. You can keep flowers in the refrigerator during the day while you are at work then take them out to enjoy. The flowers will last longer.
*Go ahead and pull off brown petals to keep the bouquet healthy.
*Roses take water up through the entire stem so make sure you fill the vase with water at least half -way.

Inline Skate Wrist Guards
Inline skate wrist guards can prevent the most common blading injuryAn estimated 47% of all inline skating/rollerblading injuries are to the wrist. It makes sense--when you fall, your natural instinct is to throw out your hands to break your fall. Unfortunately, along with breaking your fall, you're also likely to break or fracture your wrist at the same time. There are 27 bones in one human hand, including 8 in your wrist. All told, your two hands account for more than one-quarter of all the bones in your body. Make sure they�re protected with high-quality skating wrist guards. Learn more about wrist guards for skating below.
Why do you need inline skate wrist guards?Wrist protection and wrist guards may not be the first thing you think of when you think about inline skating. However, wrist/hand injuries are the most common rollerblading injury, accounting for nearly half of all inline skate injuries. A study cited by the American Academy of Pediatrics showed that wearing skating wrist guards can reduce the incident of inline skate wrist injuries by a whopping 87%. If you can drastically reduce the chance of the most common skating injury for about 20 bucks, why not do it? Some things to keep in mind when you�re choosing wrist guards for skating:

Deep within the catacombs of the Arthur B. Edge Center on the campus of the Georgia Institute of Technology, a team of scientists works feverishly on an endeavor so secret its code name — Operation 'Droid Dawg– cannot be breathed under pain of banishment from the breakfast table at the Silver Skillet diner. It has taken decades for the project to reach this critical stage, and there were times when its originator believed it would never move beyond the blackboard.
"Ladies and gentlemen," says the scientist in question, Prof. George P. Burdell, "we are but months from sweet fruition. We have the financing. We have the political leverage. What we need now are the devious touches that will make our animatronic bulldog the most effective faux animal weapon since the Trojan horse."
"What if," offers Simon Bar Sinister, doctor of robotics, "we program it to do everything a normal mascot would do, right up until the point he runs on the field and sees Lane Kiffin. And then, via

Three works of Angelika Hoerle
Johannes Raederscheidt
Anton Raderscheidt's Wives
I came across your website while researching a couple of prints I have inherited signed 'Gisele Raderscheldt'. The prints are stamped 'Nachlass Anton Raderscheldt'.
However, I can't seem to find anything on 'Gisele'. Have you ever come across this name in your art research? Rebecca Russell, New Zealand
Anton Raderscheidt and his first wife, the artist Marta Hegemann, were about the best friends anyone could have. When their friend Angelika Fick Hoerle became ill with tuberculosis and her husband Heinrich and 'friends' deserted her, Anton and Marta stayed by her side.
Life being what it is, fraught with triumphs and tragedies, Angelika died at 23 years of age and Anton left Marta and children behind. Anton left with Ilse Salberg, a well-to-do Jewish married art patron.
During the Nazi era, Anton experienced great difficulties because of Ilse's Jewish heritage. However, with luck, friends and connections, he eluded death. Ilse, an accomplished photographer, died shortly thereafter of cancer.
Anton's third wife and mother to more of his children (he had had two with Marta) was Gisele Ribreau who he met in 1948. The website www.raederscheidt.com doesn't say when they married. As Anton had a stroke in 1967 and to the best of my knowledge, Gisele was not an artist, I'm guessing that she signed some of his late works between 1967-70. You'd have to describe the subject matter of the works to try to pinpoint the decade in which they originated.
The good news is that I have some connections with Anton's first family (Marta Hegemann's son Johannes is still alive and very 'peppy' at 89 years of age) and the grand-daughter MAF Raederscheidt, a fantastic artist in her own right, who makes videos on artists for the "Rheingalerie" at www.center.tv (with her partner Stephan Everling). I will ask her for more information about Gisele. My hunch is that you've lucked into some Anton Raederscheidt works.

Reiterin Found!
Angelika Hoerle's pen and ink drawing which appeared in Bulletin D in 1919 is in the Ludwig Museum in Cologne. I saw it there July 2007.
The cracked bangs of "Reiterin's" over-bosoomed female ironically represent a somewhat ludicrous or 'cracked' woman. An unnamed contemporary critic described Angelika's humour in "Reiterin" as simultaneously grotesque and graceful, laconically and sparsely rendered as if to echo Paul Klee. Angelika does accomplish a great deal with very spare use of line. The "Rider" has machine-like pivot points, a snout like a horse, an ear hinted at with a strand of hair and flowing pubic hair. She wears AH's initials like a necklace but in no way represents her. The reinless rider has such a look of stupidity about that Angelika surely meant to spoof upper-class women who were riding along dependent upon their ample female wares without grasping hold of the future that the recently won right to vote had given them.
In contrast to the stunned rider, the very focused Angelika Hoerle did a great deal in 1919. She worked with Heinrich Hoerle and Max Ernst on the special edition of the Sozialistiche Republik newspaper to get out the vote. She collaborated with Anton Raederscheidt, Peter Abelen and Franz Wilhelm Seiwert on an edition of linocuts that honoured assassinated left-wing politicians. She participated in the Gesellschaft der Kuenste exhibition at the Cologne Kunstverein. Angelika, unlike "Die Reiterin" was no stupified female riding bare-assed without direction.
Angelika Hoerle: Comet of Cologne Dada
She was a compatriot of Max Ernst, wife of Heinrich Hoerle, friend to Marta Hegeman and Anton Raderscheidt, three of her works were purchased by Katherine Dreier to be memorialized in Yale's Societe Anonyme Collection. She was dead of tuberculosis by 23 years of age. My great-aunt Angelika Fick Hoerle was a political activist whose art crossed styles and whose passion to make positive changes in society did not die with her. To prepare for an exhibition of her works at the Art Gallery of Ontario in 2009-2010 I am looking to find EVERYTHING THERE IS TO KNOW ABOUT HER. To do that, I'm willing to share what I know about her and Cologne dada. Join with me on the voyage of discovery.
Photo above of young Angelika, me, at my uncle Willy Fick's atelier in Cologne.
It was taken summer 1967. I think it shows why uncle Willy saw me as a
reincarnation of his sister Angelika Hoerle.
Fate and the Three Angelikas
On a recent trip to Cologne I was fortunate enough to visit with the 89 year old Johannes Raederscheidt, whose father and mother were sheltering angels to my great-aunt Angelika Hoerle. In the early 1920s when Angelika's husband Heinrich and fair weather friends abandonned Angelika because she had tuberculois, Marta and Anton Raederscheidt stuck by her. ~ read more
Günther Limburg
Günther Limburg recently painted Angelika Hoerle with her husband Heinrich dominating the foreground. With what is known about Angelika, this is an apt portrayal. However, with the 2009 exhibition of Angelika's oeuvre at the Art Gallery of Ontario, she will finally emerge rightfully from behind his shadow.
Günther Limburg is a successful German artist whose works may be seen at www.art-in-cologne-guenther-limburg.de Guenther's current exhibition "Spurren" or "Traces" is in the Junker Haus in the Eiffel mountains outside Cologne, a place Angelika and Hoerle visited as a type of honeymoon outing in June 1910. More about "Traces" later.
In Günther's words:
Angelika appears a little bit abstractly, I painted her as if she was about to vanish from this world. There is a black line to suggest her right shoulder and arm in a way as if she was standing. But there are also yellow lines which give the idea of a lying woman. Somehow I tried to show her in some state between health and illness, which is also underlined by her black eyes. Hints to Cologne are included in the Romanesque church windows and the bridge over the River Rhine which is still a very popular view at Cologne. H. Hoerle is shown in front of a throne, on which he would have liked to sit.

The Baby-sitters Club Fashion Inspiration
Everyone has a favorite character in a favorite book or series. I really, really love Stacey McGill from The Baby-sitters Club. She's from New York City, like me, and she's sophisticated, cool, and really smart! But Stacey, while my character of choice, is not my favorite Baby-sitters Club dresser. Not that what someone wears is what defines her coolness—like I said, I love Stacey for her fun attitude and cleverness! But over the course of 131 book covers, these girls showed some serious style and it's totally worth another look at what our other favorite girls from Stoneybrook were wearing. Here are my five favorite Baby-sitters Club book cover outfit moments: Continue reading

You can't judge a book by its cover, but for Selena Gomez, it's a book cover that's stirring up more marriage rumors about her and boyfriend Justin Bieber.
Celebuzz reports that Gomez was seen toting the book "The 5 Languages of Love: The Secret to Love That Lasts" with her as she exited a salon on Tuesday.
The Amazon description of the book, by best-selling author Gary Chapman, says it's aimed at married couples and claims couples who read it can "build a lasting, loving marriage together."
Bieber and Gomez have been together for almost two years, but despite persistent rumors, the young couple has always been quick to deny an engagement.

MILWAUKEE (WRN) - Milwaukee Mayor Tom Barrett is standing by his police chief, amid reports that Ed Flynn has continued an extra-marital affair he promised to end in June. Flynn denies having a, "ongoing affair" with journalist Jessica McBride. But he told the Journal Sentinel he's kept communicating with her, and the 2 did meet once. Former Waukesha County District Attorney Paul Bucher has re-filed his divorce request from McBride that he pulled a few months ago. And in yesterday's Waukesha Freeman, Bucher called on Flynn to resign, saying the chief has, "crushed our family." Bucher told a Milwaukee TV station he recently confronted Flynn, and asked if having sex with McBride in mid-September helped solve the 2 men's marriage problems – and Flynn said it didn't. Barrett says Flynn's efforts have reduced overall crime in Milwaukee for the past 2 years – and he won't comment on the chief's personal issues. Flynn is 61. McBride is 39. She's a journalism lecturer at UW-Milwaukee and a columnist for the Waukesha Freeman. Both admitted having an affair this summer, after McBride wrote a glowing profile about the police chief for Milwaukee Magazine. Bucher is a private attorney who ran for state attorney general in 2006. He and McBride have a 4-year-old daughter.

About Bettina
Bettina Elias Siegel is a former lawyer, freelance writer and blogger.
A graduate of Yale College and Harvard Law School, Siegel practiced intellectual property and advertising law in New York City for almost a decade. Her experience included handling litigation and corporate transactions at a mega-firm (Skadden, Arps), becoming Spiderman's lawyer (Marvel Comics), and reviewing the marketing and advertising of a multinational consumer products and food conglomerate (Unilever U.S.)
A few years after leaving the legal profession to stay home with her first child, Siegel joined a writing workshop for stay-at-home moms and unexpectedly found herself on a new career path. Her writing has since appeared in outlets such as the New York Times Motherlode, SELF, Parents, Glamour, The Guardian, the Huffington Post, the American Bar Association's Litigation magazine, the Seattle Post-Intelligencer, the Houston Chronicle, the Houston Examiner and Houston Family magazine.
In early 2010, she launched The Lunch Tray, a widely read and well respected blog covering "kids and food, in school and out," with a particular emphasis on food policy and school food reform. Selected Lunch Tray posts also appear regularly on Civil Eats and The Huffington Post.
Since the Lunch Tray's launch, Siegel has appeared on ABC World News with Diane Sawyer, the Today Show, NBC Nightly News with Brian Williams, Anderson Cooper's daytime talk show, Anderson, various Fox News affiliates, and on many local Houston news and radio broadcasts. She has also been quoted or featured in numerous print and online publications including the Washington Post, the Chicago Tribune, the Associated Press, The New York Daily News, the Guardian, Yahoo Shine!, The Dish, Atlantic Wire, and the Houston Chronicle. In 2012, the Houston Chronicle named Siegel one of Houston's "41 Most Fascinating People." (Links here.)
Siegel is also actively involved in school food reform, serving on the Houston ISD Food Services Parent Advisory Committee and as chairperson of the food/nutrition subcommittee of HISD's School Health Advisory Council (SHAC). In 2012, she launched a Change.org petition which quickly garnered over a quarter of a million signatures and led the USDA to change its policy with respect to the use of "lean, finely textured beef" (aka "pink slime") in school food ground beef. In 2014, she launched a second petition (along with two co-petitioners) regarding the use of Chinese-processed poultry in school meals. That campaign is ongoing; the petition has garnered over 325,000 signatures to date.
Siegel has authored and illustrated a free, rhyming kids' video about processed food, "Mr. Zee's Apple Factory," which has been viewed over 18,000 times to date and has been used by teachers as part of their nutrition education curricula.
Siegel lives in Houston with her husband and two children and can be reached on Twitter at @thelunchtray or via email at bettina at thelunchtray dot com.

Here's Kylie Minogue's sister Danni Minogue (left) at an event in London on Tuesday -- and "Hannah Montana" phenom Miley Cyrus (right).
One of them is 37.
We're just sayin'.
She looks more like Vanessa Williams. I'm just sayin
Don't you people realize how much work Dannii Minogue has had done? Its obvious with the amount of makeup she's wearing. At least Mylie looks fairly natural. Dannii's well known in Australia for all the plastic surgery she's had done and lets not forget the "singing budgie" - her sister Kylie.
Dannii is smokin. Miley is jailbait .No comparison really
i cant stand those bitches!
all of u haters are dumb,miley is awsum and her denture is perfect,u guys are just hating cause shes making more money in a day than all of u haters can make in a lifetime........and yes they do look alike but miley looks younger and prettier.....
Miley sucks with her autotuned voice and over-sexxed persona and I'm not a girl so jealous would be the wrong word to use. And Dannii has had enough surgery to ensure that she doesn't look 37 until she'd about 70. So in all honesty, they're both a couple of fake's.
