Time to move your bobhouse
The structures also cannot be left on public or private property without permission, Fish and Game advised.
The law is designed to ensure that bobhouses and their contents don't fall through the ice and become a hazard to boaters or get left behind on shore, explained Sgt. Dave Eskeland of the agency's law enforcement division.
Failure to remove a bobhouse by the deadline can result in a fine and a one-year loss of the owner's fishing license. In cases where conservation officers cannot identify the bobhouse owner, Fish and Game has the authority to seize any bobhouse and its contents not removed by the deadline, Eskeland said.
For more information, contact the local conservation officer or Fish and Game's law enforcement division at 271-3127.

Steven Engelsman knighted
Steven Engelsman knighted
On Friday, 30 November 2012, Dr. Steven Engelsman was named Officer in the Order of Orange-Nassau. He was presented with the Royal distinction personally by Henri Lenferink, Mayor of Leiden, at the National Museum of Ethnology, where he served for twenty years as the managing director until last April. Engelsman received his distinction in part for his special role in establishing and fostering cooperative ties for the exchange of knowledge between international museums.
Enthusiastic Director
In 1990, Engelsman, then assistant director of Museum Boerhaave, was asked to become the managing director of the National Museum of Ethnology. He jumped in with both feet, handling the challenge beautifully. He led a thorough renovation and completely re-arranged the museum. The National Museum of Ethnology grew under his leadership to become a world player on the museum stage. During his career at the National Museum of Ethnology, Engelsman achieved great successes, including the hit exhibition MAORI; a project that was not just about the Maori but that was created together in collaboration with the Maori. This concept of not about them without them has by now become a guiding theme in the outreach and research activities of the National Museum of Ethnology. In April 2012, Engelsman made the move to the Museum für Völkerkunde in Vienna, where he has been the director since then.
Strategic Bridge Builder
Engelsman is known in the museum world as an involved, strategic networker. He was the (co)founder of the Museum Group Leiden and the Stichting Volkenkundige Collectie Nederland [Dutch Ethnographic Collection Foundation] (SVCN). Connecting the European Ethnographic Museums, he helped create the Ethnographic European Museum Directors Group (EEMDG) and its offshoot, the Réseau International des Musées d'Ethnographie (RIME). His role as catalyst and instigator in setting up the Asia-Europe Museum Network (ASEMUS) and the Virtual Collection of Masterpieces (VCM) rendered intensive international cooperation, digital as well as physical, possible. He was also extraordinarily active in the Vereniging Rijksgesubsidieerde Musea [Association of Nationally Subsidised Museums] (VRM) and the Nederlandse Museum Vereniging [Netherlands Museum Association] (NMV).

American Eagle Outfitters Inc.'s (AEO) fiscal first-quarter profit fell 30% as the teen retailer's revenue and same-store sales declined.
"Our first-quarter results reflected a tough macro-environment as well as cooler weather causing soft demand for seasonal merchandise, all against warmer-than-normal weather and a strong performance last year," Chief Executive Robert Hanson said.
For the current quarter, the company predicted earnings of 19 cents to 21 cents a share, while analysts polled by Thomson Reuters expected 24 cents. Same-store sales are expected to be flat. For the year, American Eagle expects $1.42 to $1.45 a share in earnings, below estimates of $1.48.
Teen retailers like American Eagle have been operating in an intensely competitive environment marked by bargain-hunting consumers, deep promotions, and the rise of fast-fashion peers like Swedish retailer Hennes & Mauritz AB (HM-B.SK), known as H&M, and Forever 21 Inc.
American Eagle, for its part, has emerged as a key destination for fashion-conscious teens and a standout in the teen sector. But it could be harder for American Eagle to maintain its fashion edge over other teen retailers, like high-end peer Abercrombie & Fitch Co. (ANF) and bargain player Aeropostale Inc. (ARO).
For the quarter ended May 4, American Eagle reported a profit of $28 million, or 14 cents a share, down from $39.7 million, or 20 cents a share, a year earlier. Excluding asset write-offs and other items, earnings were 18 cents a share compared with 22 cents. The company in March predicted 16 cents to 19 cents.
Revenue fell 4.1% to $679.5 million, while same-store sales fell 5%, following a 17% rise a year earlier. Analysts forecast net sales of $678 million, while the company had projected same-store sales to fall in the mid-single digit range.
Gross margin was flat at 38.8%.
By brand, American Eagle same-store sales fell 6%, while aerie rose 4%. AEO Direct, which consists of ae.com and aerie.com, saw same-store sales grow 24%.
Shares closed Tuesday at $20.31 and were unchanged premarket. The stock is down 1% so far this year.

BOSTON (AP) - The attorney for a former Boston firefighter charged with buying heroin on duty says his client is now in drug treatment.
Stephen Hogan was scheduled for arraignment Thursday in Roxbury District Court on a charge of heroin possession. His lawyer, Liam Scully, asked for a postponement. The judge found Hogan in default, but said he won't issue an arrest warrant before Hogan's next court date of March 8.
Police say they arrested the 24-year-old Hogan Tuesday after following him from a firehouse to a local pharmacy, where they saw him get in a vehicle with two other people. The vehicle later dropped him off at the firehouse. Police said Hogan had a bag of heroin. Investigators said he first told them he was selling the heroin, but later said he was a user.
Hogan resigned Wednesday.

You might have noticed that I changed the labels of my menu bar (through the help of my designer Kim, of course). Instead of having the Blogging for Dollars Series and 31 Days to Holding a Successful Blog Party Series on my sidebar, I decided to give them their own home, thus the Series tab at the top. The Biz Directory currently shows my Market Your Biz and Giveaways posts but that will eventually be updated to show just the businesses I worked with and featured at the MYBG party. Finally, the last tab is the link leading to the Creative DIYers Club, a blog that I created to serve as my online journal of the tutorials of extraordinary projects by creative DIYers.
Just when I thought my pageviews will start to dwindle because I'm not devoting as much time as I used to before I started my full time job this Monday (though I still spend a good deal of 10+ hours a week for it), to my surprise, it exceeded my expectations! For the first time, I got 7000+ pageviews in just one day in my entire one year of blogging career last Monday. I thought that come Tuesday it'll taper off but to my delight, 20000+ pageviews just for a post that I thought readers won't have a second look - also in just one day! So to you my friend who stumbled me on Stumble Upon, which caused a succession of being Stumbled Upon 2 times more, thank you so much! You made my week so happy and bright :)

Our Party
To the main course of this post.
For those of you joining us for the first time, we only have 2 easy, simple rules:
1) Link up your creative post - can be a DIY project, decor, photography, crafts, recipes, poem, thrift finds, link party, or that informative syndicated post that can make us laugh, or cry - in short, whatever you're proud of! And if you like to link more creative posts, go for it! We'd love to see them :) (No links to businesses or giveaways. We have another party for these exclusively every Tuesday called Market Your Biz & Giveaways at 5 pm, PST.)
2) Follow as many blogs as you desire, preferably starting first with the one who linked before you and after you, before branching out, and let them know by leaving a comment. (Following me will be very much appreciated, and I definitely follow back. Just let me know you're following.)
Displaying the party button on your blog, while optional, is very much appreciated :) It will help you remember to come back and link up to the the happiest blog party on the block (ahem!). It will also help others find their way to the party which we all love because the more the merrier :)
Link opens up every Sunday at 5:00 pm, PST and ends Friday at 11:59 pm.
Friends, go ahead and get to know each :) One followed blogger is one gained friend. And please, don't forget to join my Market Your Biz and Giveaways blog party every Tuesday at 5 pm, PST. It's your chance for free promotion of your family-friendly business and giveaways.
Burning question: Just curious, how many hours a week do you spend in your blog?
Embarrassing to admit, but I used to spend at least 20 hours a week, prior to getting this full time job - the bulk of which is responding to emails and comments, visiting participants in my blog parties, editing pictures, writing posts, tweaking blog look, and a million of little things devoted to blogging. Now, it's reduced to half so I apologize if I can't do these all anymore. I've been stressing out yesterday that I wasn't able to feature any project from this past week's edition of CBPH but I finally gave up because as mommies, I know you'll understand that building memories with our kids comes first above everything else. How about you - how much time do you spend blogging?

I thought I would post my experiences I have just had when integrating 25intel iMacs into an active directory and open directory. After net-restoring the machines (eventually) I then proceeded to copy and install the required software via ARD. This was the easy bit.
After this I tried to bind them to the AD and OD. I run a script through ARD. unfortunately each machine had an issue where they all thought they were the same. It turned out to be the local kerberos db that was the issue. So to disable this you need to run the command
This should remove the local kdc and also remove the duplicate machine issue when trying to bind to the OD.Code:
sudo dscl /local/default delete /Config/kerberosKDC
I also had an issue with binding to the AD as well. The biggest issue was that the plugin is not enabled by default when you add it via a script. You need to use the defaults write command to activate the plugin.
# Activate the AD plugin
defaults write /Library/Preferences/DirectoryService/DirectoryService "Active Directory" "Active"
#convert the plist back to xml for editing
plutil -convert xml1 /Library/Preferences/DirectoryService/DirectoryService.plist
# Restart DirectoryService (necessary to reload AD plugin activation settings)
killall DirectoryService
After manually finding all this and then editing the plist files until i got it working, i then came across Bombich's website which had a script for Ad-binding Leopard. I have uploaded this for convenience as well.Code:
#I had to use these to write my search paths as the AD dscl command wouldn't take.
defaults write /Library/Preferences/DirectoryService/SearchNodeConfig "Search Node Custom Path Array" -array "/Active Directory/All Domains"
defaults write /Library/Preferences/DirectoryService/SearchNodeConfig "OD-Server path"
plutil -convert xml1 /Library/Preferences/DirectoryService/SearchNodeConfig.plist
killall DirectoryService
The next major PITA was logging on remotely using the osascript command. I have still not managed to get this to work on leopard.
So these are just a few of the issues (but the main ones). If anyone has not seen these issues I would be interested to hear. Especially the last one or if you know how to get around this issue.

Seth Eisen's HomoFile Salon/Discussion Evening
Thursday, September 27th 9:30pm - 10:30pm
1349 Mission St, San Francisco CA
Carol Queen and Seth Eisen will be talking with Michael Williams, long-time friend of Samuel Steward and the executor of Steward's estate. The topic of discussion will be the show Homo File, and the following topics:
- The importance of queer elders pass on the lineage of our tradition to the younger generation
- Queer Alliances as a path to artistic freedom and personal evolution.
- Documentation and identity.
- Why Phil Andros books are important (Andros was Steward's pseudonym for erotic fiction)
We will also have time for questions from the audience about the show and for Michael Williams about Steward's life and work.
We will get started at around 9:30 after the show and go till about 10:15-10:30. There will be refreshments served.
About Homo File:
CounterPULSE Summer Artist in Residence 2012 Seth Eisen along with Xandra Ibarra, SEP 20-30, THU-SUN AT 8PM
Seth Eisen writes and directs an ensemble of multidisciplinary performers/artists/collaborators in his new Queer history performance project titled Homo File, chronicling the life of Sam Steward, (1909-1993). Steward was a college professor, a prolific author of homoerotic fiction, an influential tattoo artist, and Queer sexual maverick who lived his last 3 decades in the Bay Area. His artistic development and Queer self-awareness evolved through friendships with Alfred Kinsey, Gertrude Stein and Alice B. Toklas, Thornton Wilder, George Platt Lynes as well as numerous other LGBTQ luminaries.
The performance will feature Steward's steadfast practice of documenting his private experiences and the development of his alliances amongst Queer artists in an era of few civil liberties. Steward and his circle helped shape contemporary Queer culture despite the repressive climate they existed in. The threat of being outed, tried and jailed were always imminent. Steward was a Queer maverick and one of many lost LGBT histories. Homo File will explore and contrast the lives and relationships between our contemporary Queer culture and that of the early-mid 20th century artists that required significant risks for survival.
Homo File will combine puppetry, live music, video, movement and physical theater. The piece will continue Eye Zen Art's tradition of creating visually dynamic, interdisciplinary work with a focus on Queer history, aesthetics and sensibilities. The piece will work to raise awareness about Sam Steward and his Queer and artistic milieu of the 1930s-through the 1970s. With Homo File, Eye Zen Art continues to harness and reclaim historic traditions of Queer culture to provoke community development, encourage essential dialogue, and promote social research into the lives of LGBTQ ancestors.

So I found this recipe in my recipe file to make again, (I should have looked it up online to check it) because I remembered something going wrong. It went horribly wrong last night. The rice does not cook, the rice to liquid ratio is off, it should be 1 cup rice to 2 1/4 c. liquid. When I try it again, I will use only 2 cups of rice to 4 1/2 cups liquid. And raise the temp to 400. The chicken has a great flavor but it was overdone. I even put the rice back in with more liquid and it was still crunchy!! UGH! If anyone else trys this, let me know how they fixed it. Because I still think the ingredient list is incorrect. I used brown basmati to make it healthier and served with a side of broccoli.

Cafe Con Leche: Preferred by Locals (Newtown, Bucks County, PA)
April 29, 2011
This place could fly under your radar in that the entrance is in the back and down a level. But once you arrive you find an intimate and casual space for informal dining on inventive and savory cuisine with an Argentinian flair from chef and owner Daniel Lucci. I've been there probably 25 times or more and never a bad experience. This BYOB once had modest prices, but that's no longer true. Still, it's a good value and locals like me return regularly. Everything is good, but I particularly recommend dishes that include steak, seafood, or pasta.
Seeks destination pizza that is worth the trip. La pizza male è meglio che non la pizza!

Pillsbury Crescent Dinner Rolls
Original recipe yields 4 servings
Amount per serving ({{servings}} total)
Based on a 2,000 calorie diet
Your rating
These crescents are very tasty and definitely remind me of a BLT without the L! I used the Seamless dough and got 4 good sized sandwiches. I would recommend crumbling the bacon. I made 2 using crumbles and found they folded much easier and were easier for young ones to eat. I also put cheese on 2 and those gave an even better cheesy flavor. Next time I might change around the ingredients and seasonings but on the whole, great recipe. I love the flakiness of the Pillsbury Crescents and this recipe showcases it very well.
Because I saw that some reviewers had issues keeping the ingredients inside the crescents, I crumbled the bacon and chopped the tomato into smaller bits and folded them into the mayonnaise/cheese mixture. I then divided the filling into quarters and spooned it into the middle of each crescent quarter. Not a bad quick dinner idea. It was just my kids and I and it fed the four of us but if you have a bigger crew, you're going to want to double it at least. I served this with a huge vegetable platter with lowfat ranch dip which made a lighter main dish okay.
This was fast and easy. These are great for a to-go breakfast.

Wow. After reading your daily quest "roadmap", I gotta stop and ask, When do you actually play the game? From the way you describe it it sounds like a job, almost like a chore. How long does it take you to get the Outland Circle done? I mean I log on and start doing dailies, but I never am able to do more than 10, because after doing 5 dailies I feel like I am back at my computer at work.
That's the realization that many are coming to, especially myself. I have a circle I do myself, but dropped the sunfury plans unless I get the cooking one in netherstorm as well. Is this like a job? Yes in that it's a routine, no in that you do not HAVE to do them in order to survive. At the moment I want the 5000g mount and some rep so this is a great alternative to farming. And I think that's what blizzard intended: to give an alternative to mind numbing farming. I often don't feel like doing "the circle", so I just do the daily quests I enjoy most (bomb them again, and fishing), then go do something else.
I think one thing Blizzard should most certainly look at is the fact that people say, "I do daily quests and bg daily UNLESS it's wsg". Warsong Gulch is a lost cause! Wipe it and replace it with something else!

For the first time in six years, a Sacramento City Council member is running for re-election without an opponent.
Councilwoman Angelique Ashby has earned a second term representing North Natomas after no challengers emerged for the June primary election. Ashby is the newly appointed mayor pro tem and was first elected in 2010.
Her unchallenged return to the City Council is a throwback of sorts for city politics. In 2008, all four incumbent council members ran unopposed. Many other races over the past decade featured either unchallenged incumbents or lopsided results when challengers did emerge.
Ashby said she was planning on running for re-election whether or not she faced opposition.
She said she has projects she wants to help guide to completion over the next four years. Most notably, Ashby is advocating for funding to finish upgrading the levees in North Natomas and working on a plan for the redevelopment of Sleep Train Arena after the Kings move into a new arena downtown.
I hope that the reason I dont have an opponent is because people are happy with my leadership and service and they want me to keep going, she said.
While Ashby will be spared a campaign, its a different story in the three other council districts in play. Twelve candidates have qualified to run for those spots.
The most crowded field is in the campaign seeking to represent east Sacramento and South Natomas. That seat which went through significant changes during redistricting four years ago to include South Natomas has been represented by Councilman Steve Cohn for 20 years. Cohn is stepping down to run for the state Assembly.
Running to replace Cohn are Ellen Cochrane, a teacher; business owner Deane Dana; real estate broker Efren M. Guttierrez; general contractor Jeff Harris; housing analyst Adam Sartain; Cyril Shah, an American River Flood Control District trustee; and childrens services director Rosalyn Van Buren.
If no candidate receives 50 percent of the vote in the June primary, the top two candidates will move on to the November general election.
Sacramento political consultant Andrew Acosta, who is running Shahs campaign, said he wasnt surprised such a large field has emerged for the seat, given that Cohn is not running for re-election after occupying the seat for two decades. Acosta noted the district covers a diverse range of neighborhoods, from the wealthy Fab 40s of east Sacramento to the working-class areas of South Natomas.
The people who are running have ties to different parts of the community, he said.
Councilman Darrell Fong is also leaving City Hall to run for the Assembly, leaving his seat open in the district covering the Pocket, Greenhaven and Valley Hi neighborhoods.
Attorney and former city fire Chief Julius Cherry, nonprofit executive director Rick Jennings and construction worker Abe Snobar are running for the seat.
Councilman Jay Schenirer has a challenger in his re-election bid in parent and labor advocate Ali Cooper. They are campaigning for the District 5 seat representing Curtis Park, Oak Park, Hollywood Park and other neighborhoods in the citys south-central side.

How To Control Your Man
What Women Are Saying About Men Made Easy
"Dear Kara, I have to say that I'm so glad I've found you. Your advise and helpful thoughts in 'Men Made Easy' has given me an insight to what I need to know about men. I'm sure that I wouldn't be having such a beautiful and happy relationship with my boyfriend if it wasn't for you and your program. We've been together for more than half a year now, and just like you and Steven, we're amazed at how happy we are"
Kindest regards, Jasmin
"Hi Kara, I purchased your program today. I was very skeptical and part of me assumed that it would be a re-hash of all the other stuff I had heard and read – but I thought "oh well – it's not that much money and even if I only learn one thing it might be worth it.
I want to tell all women that it is NOT a re-hash of anything they have heard before! It is a warm, kind, insightful and exceptionally helpful way of understanding ourselves better – which in turn creates the 'magic' we are all secretly looking for in our interactions with men.
This is a wonderful resource for women and I highly recommend it to all."
Thank you, Karen P.
"Everything with your program is making our relationship 10x better than it was before. He's more attentive, talkative, funny – he calls more often. He's doing things like when we first fell in love. It's awesome."
Thank you,
Melissa Barry
"I found Kara's home-study guide when I was looking for any possible answer and consolation for the predicament I was facing: dealing with a painful breakup. I like her compassionate style that encourages women to really try to be in our men's shoes; to see things from their vantage point. She is really an inspiration to me and many others."
Katarina Phang
"Kara, I read what's in your "Men Made Easy Program", and I must say: IT IS BRILLIANT! In it are things we all know in some way, as you mention, but the way you bring these ideas together and express them is just absolutely fabulous.
I am currently in a wonderful relationship, and the program has helped me put things into perspective when my previous reaction would have been to get upset or sad. It is wonderful! I am sharing it with girlfriends of mine, and I can't wait until they finish it to see their reactions! Keep up the good work!"
Debbie Foulsom
"I would like to tell you from the day I read your book, I have adopted much of your wisdom into my everyday life. I'm using my new attitude of Feminine Grace in this new relationship and in all other aspects of my life, and I have to say I am much happier and less angst! This new, upbeat attitude is helping even with difficult situations."
Angela Weaver
"I would like to tell you from the day I read your book, I have adopted much of your wisdom into my everyday life. I'm using my new attitude of Feminine Grace in this new relationship and in all other aspects of my life, and I have to say I am much happier and less angst! This new, upbeat attitude is helping even with difficult situations."
Angela Weaver
"Hi Kara, I wanted to let you know how much you helped and how life-changing this weekend was because of reading your book, figuring out who I am and what I want my life to be, and then just implementing those ideas into my life. It was THE BEST!! Thank you so much!"
Renee R.
"Dear Kara, Thanks for your help and support. I swear, buying your book has been one of the best decisions I've made in a long time. It's helped a lot, as has being connected to you and the support group. You're a good person, Kara. Thank you."
Amy Farnsworth
"I am currently with a man that I have been dating for over 4 years. My challenge before this book was communication!!! I felt he was not hearing me and we had endless disagreements that literally took us in this never ending circle with no beginning, no end, and no resolution.
I have been using Feminine Grace all this week. WOW! WOW! He asked me last night what is going on with me? He said you seem "soft" and easygoing....this is awesome. I will slowly engage all the new things I am learning as I absorb and fully understand them."
With much appreciation,
Jeannette Draper
"Thank you, Kara. I receive your newsletters and just love them! As a result of your wonderful insights in your books, I've met my prince, he treats me like a princess, and we're both very happy. I've been planning our wedding for next summer!"
Debbie Kendrick
"Dear Kara, I cannot thank you enough for the wonderful book that you wrote. It was certainly money well spent. I read your book in 2 days, I could not put it down. Thanks to the new techniques that I have learned, the change in my marriage has been amazing. Again, I cannot thank you enough."
Kerri Valentine
"Dear, dear Kara, First of all I would like to thank you a million times over for writing "Men Made Easy", it's fantastic. I purchased the book a year ago and have been using the secrets.
Yesterday my boyfriend gave me the most awesome compliment that no other man has given me before. He sent me a Yahoo Greeting card with a mushy verse and underneath he wrote his own verse which said "Thanks for you being you". I cried when I read this. I can't thank you enough."
Tina Waye
"Dear Kara, I discovered your book just 2 days after the man I was dating called it off after 3 1/2 months. We still had to see each other one last time to return some things. So I armed myself with all my new knowledge and went in. (Little did he know what I knew. LOL) I did not once say take me back, instead I wished him love and plenty of it and told him he deserved a woman that loved him for the strong intelligent man that I knew he was – her hero.
Late that night I got a phone call and he said he had made a mistake. Later, when I asked him what changed his mind, he said, "You did not come in mad, you told me you were disappointed but respected my opinion. Instead, you were happy and brought a light into the room like no one ever had." Kara, we have been back together for 2 weeks and, when I thought things were good before, it's even better now.
He's brought up marriage and living together but we're not there yet. I still have a lot of play(work) to do to get the relationship to the level of awesome, but we are on the way. Thank you for all your wonderful work."
Barbara Ann, Kentucky
"Hi Kara, I have just went through your program and I wanted to say thanks!! Thanks for making everything so easy to read and understand.... I have read a lot of self-help books regarding relationships over the past few months (including numerous Dr John Gray books) and I have to say yours was far easier to read and understand than any other.... I suppose that its obvious it was written BY a woman FOR women!!"
Thank you,
"Hi Kara, I enjoyed reading your book so much and found it rich with great information. I am currently involved with someone so I find it very helpful. In previous relationships, I would go off the deep end with something said or done and now I think it through before I say something. It's very empowering. Your book has helped me to sort out many of my thoughts and self doubts about myself. Thank you so much. It is great reading and also fun."
Dee Dee Clark
"Dear Kara, I purchased your book about a week ago. All I can say is WOW!!! Your book has shown me that I really can get a man's attention, so much so that he is interested enough to really get to know me!! The other night a gentlemen approached me and he was totally smitten. After we spoke later that week he told me that he was head over heels. He said what caught his attention was the way I carried myself.
My Feminine Grace that you talk about!!! I never realize I had it, but I do. Thank you so much for putting this in book form, so that we can study it, practice it, remember it and really live it. Much appreciation to you!!"
Colleen, New York
"Hey Kara, It just dawned on me how much my guy has improved since I read and started applying your techniques. He is less moody, doesn't go into those "I need my space" funks. He professes his love for me and has even said the things I've longed to hear. I'm still on cloud nine!"
Cynthia E.
____________________________________________________________"Kara uses a fun parable to effortlessly explain what could otherwise become a complex subject. Even better? This stuff work. Within minutes of reading the first secret, I literally had the two men in my life (my son and husband) scrambling over each other wanting to fulfill my wishes. Once you get reading, I defy anyone to try to put it down." Beth Ann Erickson
"Hi Kara, My friend recently gave me a copy of your e-book for my birthday. I couldn't put it down. I loved how my husband began to respond to me in such loving ways, but even more was how being a woman became a brand new, exciting adventure. How can I thank you? You're a genius."
Linda Sue Bentley, Lexington, Kentucky
"Dear Kara, After I ordered your book online and read it over the course of a few days, I felt myself change inside. Your Secrets were words of revelation to me. I am 59 years old and never has anyone told me these things before! Let me explain:
I began to apply your principles to my failing marriage and have experienced immediate results. My husband is all the best of how you describe men. It makes me love him all over again and he's loving me back - this, after I had given up hope."
Jo Ann Galneder

I have had this wonderful book for many years now, I purchased it from a great
comic book shop in Nottingham called Page 45, I used to go there to buy comics
and other interesting books when I was younger.
Edward Gorey has always been a source of inspiration for me, I love the dark
humour of his short stories and his quirky illustrative style. I recently read a re
print of his fantastic book 'The Evil Garden' and read the whole thing through
in the shop.
This book is a fantastic insight in to Gorey's world, his inspiration, interests and
line drawing technique. A lot of his work is set in the Edwardian and Victorian
period, his work is filled with monsters, cats, bizarre creatures, children, elegantly
dressed ladies and gentlemen and the strange and often ghastly events that
Gorey's use of texture in his illustrations has always interested me, but it wasn't
until recently that I started looking very closely at the collection of some 200
illustrations in this book, that I became curious about how many different types
of lines he regularly used. I began to put together an Edward Gorey texture
library to record all of the different strokes and marks used to create texture,
depth and light within his work.
I also draw in a heavily textured style, and have found this book and invaluable
source for new ideas and textures to explore and experiment with. I now use
the different examples I have found within Edward Gorey's illustrations to help
develop my technique and record all of the different lines and marks that I use
within my own drawing.
For anyone that has never encountered the work of Edward Gorey, do so! He
was a truly fantastic man.

Google's Schmidt urges N. Korea Internet freedom
Google's Schmidt urges N. Korea Internet freedom
Bill Richardson, the former US ambassador to the United Nations who led the trip, said he called on Pyongyang to adopt a moratorium on ballistic missile and nuclear tests following its widely criticised rocket launch last month.
Talks were also held about an American citizen who is being detained in the country, he told reporters at Beijing airport, after speculation that he could return with the man, Kenneth Bae.
Efforts to "strongly urge" North Korea, a highly secretive and tightly-controlled country, to increase the use of the Internet were "the main success of the visit", the former New Mexico governor said.
Schmidt said he told North Korean officials they should open up the country's Internet "or they will remain behind".
"As the world becomes increasingly connected, their decision to be virtually isolated is very much going to affect their physical world, their economic growth and so forth, and it will make it harder for them to catch up economically," Schmidt said.
"Once the Internet starts, citizens in a country can certainly build on top of it. The government has to do something. It has to make it possible for people to use the Internet which the government in North Korea has not yet done."
The North has a domestic Intranet service with a very limited number of users. Analysts say access to the Internet is for the super-elite only, meaning a few hundred people or maybe 1,000 at most.
Last week in a surprise New Year address North Korean leader Kim Jong-Un said improving the economy through science and technology was a key goal.
But experts said Internet freedom in the tightly controlled country was a distant possibility.
"Most people in North Korea do not know what is going on in the outside world, so to have access to this through the Internet would be a shock to the system," said Brian Bridges, of Hong Kong's Lingnan University.
The US State Department had voiced concern about the trip, saying it was ill-timed in the wake of the North's rocket launch.
Pyongyang said its aim was to put a scientific satellite into orbit, but Washington and other nations called it a disguised ballistic missile test.
"We strongly urged the North Koreans to proceed with a moratorium on ballistic missiles and possible nuclear test," Richardson said.
The delegation did not meet leader Kim but had a "series of very frank discussions" with officials on "the current level of tension in the peninsula", he said, adding: "The North Koreans need to temper their nuclear development."
Richardson has been to the North several times in the past two decades and has been involved in negotiating the release of US citizens detained there.
During the latest trip there were discussions about Bae, an American of Korean descent who was arrested in November, but the delegation did not meet him personally as he was being held too far from Pyongyang, Richardson said.
"We were informed that his health was good and that the judicial proceedings would start soon. That is encouraging," he added.
Bae, 44, entered the country as a tourist, according to the North's official news agency, which said he had admitted committing a crime against the state.
The official agency has described the high-profile visitors as a Google delegation.
Richardson last visited the North in 2010 when he met its chief nuclear negotiator to try and ease tensions after the country shelled a South Korean border island.

All the bands collaborate on the 'end of show' jam.
Live and local music, special guests and lots of fun for a Saturday morning.
The theme for the first hour of today's show is questions and answers.
Your suggestion for songs that ask a question followed by another that answers it.
Q: Should I Stay Or Should I Go? The Clash
A: Go Now! The Moody Blues.
One-handed guitarist and singer Tina Bridgman is among JG's studio guests today.
Plus we meet children's fantasy author Neil Trigger and visiting American band The James Low Western Front.
And hear from some people involved in various parts of the wool trade.
Tina Bridgman is a guitarist who lost her left hand in a car
accident in 2004.
"I now play more than I've ever done
before," she says.
Tina also teaches guitar and voice and she has released four albums (two before the accident and two after).
She has been living in New Zealand for past 10 years but has recently
returned to Devon where she grew up.
Tina has also been raising money in a sponsored 22 mile swim for the charity Aspire which supports people paralysed by spinal cord injury.
We'll be hearing all about it and Tina will be performing live on today's show.
If you're a regular listener, you've already heard Axminster husband and wife duo The Gravity Drive.
Their debut single, Trick Of The Light, has been played by John a few times on the Saturday Morning Show.
Elijah and Ava Wolf describe themselves as an "Alt-Pop/him-her duo with a bite" and they are currently working with legendary producer Peter Schwier (Dexys, Pet Shop Boys, Electronic).
We'll meet them on this morning's show.
The Eric Ness band includes members from Norway, Sweden, Ireland, England and Canada.
They recorded their single "I've Been Bad" at Sun Studios in Memphis, where Elvis Presley was discovered.
Eric - a Norwegian singer songwriter - is a huge Elvis fan and collects Elvis memorabilia.
They'll be making the trip to Devon to perform live in the studio for us this morning.
Find out what Paul Moxham thinks of some of this week's new releases at the region's cinemas when he joins us for Moxham's Movies after midday.
This week he's off to see the latest from director Paul Thomas Anderson, The Master, about a cult following in the 50's.
Check out JG's Facebook page for behind the scenes gossip and info and pictures from the show.facebook.com/jgshow
Send John a tweet during the show - using the hashtag #JGShow - and you might even get a mention on air.@JohnGovier
Neil Trigger is a children's fantasy author and publisher from Plymouth.
He's also a ghost hunter, magician and charity fundraiser.
The author of The Midnight Chronicles will be joining us for a chat this morning.
A couple of weeks back we met Catherine Feeny and her band from Portland, Oregan.
This week, it's the turn of another visiting american band; The James Low Western Front, to pop into the studio and perform live.
The band who hail from Texas, Oregan and Kansas, will be playing at The Ring O' Bells in Chagford this evening and we'll get a preview on this morning's show.
The Campaign for Wool is an initiative spearheaded by HRH Prince Charles.
It aims to promote the use of wool and hopes to reignite Britain's love affair with this material to help producers, farmers and other involved in the industry.
We'll meet three people from the wool trade.

June 30, 2009
Summer 2009 marks the 10th anniversary of Rollins' Student-Faculty Collaborative Scholarship program. Professor of Physics Thomas Moore leads the program, which offers students the opportunity to participate in high-level scholarly research—research that is typically only available at the graduate-school level. Since its launch, a total of 71 faculty members representing 24 disciplines have collaborated in research with students, and a total of 307 students will have taken part in the program by the end of the summer.
Summer is a time for rest and relaxation. After a hard year of work, most college students pass the time frolicking at the beach or watching re-runs of their favorite sitcom. Physics major Ashley Cannaday, however, decided that there was no place she would rather be than in the laboratory at the Bush Science Center continuing breakthrough scientific research.
Partnered with fellow physics major Nicholas Horton (Class of 2009) and in collaboration with Professor of Physics Thomas Moore, Cannaday spent her first year at Rollins researching the use of lasers to detect land mines. During the summer of 2008, Cannaday and Horton built an apparatus that could be used to find buried landmines. Since it was just a prototype and not made to withstand the elements, they brought a sandbox into the laboratory and buried a tin can, rocks and sticks into the sand. They then tested their method of detecting land mines by attempting to find the tin can, which vibrated much like an antipersonnel mine. They had a success rate of 100 percent- finding the "mine" every time.
Throughout this summer, Cannaday is continuing her research using lasers to locate buried land mines, focusing on a new method of finding buried objects that can be made to vibrate. The process she is using was invented at Rollins and is called Speckle Subtraction Imaging.
"Last summer, our preliminary results showed that our new method could indeed detect buried man-made objects and discriminate between them and natural objects such as rocks and roots," said Moore. "We are continuing our work trying to understand the issues involved in applying this technique outside of the laboratory.
Joining Cannaday in the laboratory is her former high school physics teacher and Rollins alumna Sarah Zietlow (Class of 2006). Zietlow is supported by a grant from the National Science Foundation. Although she has never specifically studied the problem of detecting land mines, she did complete extensive research with Moore using lasers to study the vibrations of piano soundboards and crash cymbals while she was a student at Rollins.
The professor, the teacher and the student are now working side by side in the laboratory as a part of the Rollins' Student-Faculty Collaborative Scholarship program. Pleased with the progress made in their research, the trio is proud to announce that a grant proposal has been submitted to the United States Army, which would allow for the purchase of new materials and the employment of more researchers in the laboratory.
"We definitely have had difficulties," said Cannaday. "In fact, we have had weeks' worth of difficulties, but we overcame them. We made great strides in a short period of time."
Cannaday and Zietlow will be continuing their research together throughout the next year.

moreEstonia, with a total population of only 1.4 million is located at the interface of East and West, between Eastern Orthodoxy and Western Protestantism, and between Russia and Sweden and Germany. As such, its territory has been a battlefield between larger countries and it has been subject to the Germans, Swedes, and Russians. Only with the National Awakening in the latter 19th century were the Estonians able to begin to assert control over their nation and its culture. Alas, the independent Republic of Estonia only lasted two decades, and it was not until the collapse of the Soviet Union that the new state was created in 1991. In the ensuing decade the image of Estonia has undergone a magical transformation as it moved from being a forgotten component of the authoritarian and economically moribund Soviet Union to a democratic, vibrant, and competitive member of modern Europe. The road has not been easy and success depended not only on the efforts of the Estonians, but also on the international situation and serendipity. Still, they can now look back on major achievements, including membership in the United Nations, NATO, and the European Union, as well as reasonable economic, social, and political progress. This volume covers Estonian history from the 12th century to the present and includes numerous detailed entries on important persons, places, and events. It was written by Toivo Miljan, who was born in Estonia and returned to the region recently as director of the EuroFacutly established by the Council of Baltic States. less

PATS The Philly Way Gets Showcased in world famous UK online lifestyle and design magazine 'We Heart'.
We Heart is more than a blog. We Heart is an online lifestyle and design magazine. We Heart is a brand, an influencer and an internationally renowned authority on design, culture and lifestyle…

Thank you for your kind words and support:
Pipe Mania-inspired eatery eschews typical US diner aesthetic...
The restaurant's designers have swerved the primary colours and Hollywood schtick of Pulp Fiction's Jack Rabbit Slim's and have instead gone for a mixture of the industrial and the musical...
Remember the old Amiga game where you had to fit bits of pipe together, for reasons not entirely clear? So did we, when we experienced the striking interior of the catchily-titled PATS – The Philly Way. Bringing a taste of South Philidelphia to the Australian state of Victoria, PATS (that's Premium Australian Trimmed Steak, HENCE THE CAPITALS) serves up its take on the famous steak sandwich born in the original stateside Pat's in the 1930s.
Happily, there's not much evidence of your typical US fast food joint in the Richmond eatery, however. Studio Equator, the restaurant designers, have swerved the primary colours and Hollywood schtick of Pulp Fiction's Jack Rabbit Slim's and have instead gone for a mixture of the industrial and the musical, calling on the history of the famous east coast American city to bring real flavour to the place.
Jazz motifs evoke the spirit of the 60s and 70s, and the warm oranges and browns of the era ensure the pseudo-plumbing overhead doesn't sterilise the dining experience. (We're happy to report the said ceiling installations are light housings, not soil pipes).

I must have that bike. Please say it comes in Adult sizes!!!
Today? By "today," do you mean next month?
Isn't the release date March 14th? Or was it changed?
Today? I thought it wasn't out until March 14? (Yes I literally have it on my calendar). Can anyone confirm?
those coffee mugs might just make mornings bearable
Hmm, yeah, I thought it was March 14th too (O Mag sez March 15). A majority of blogs say March 14th, so stick with that.
Yes, I'd heard it was mid-March.
Love that peacock feather pillow! Wow!
i TOTALLY have my eyes on the peacock piggy bank, black/white canister and naturally, the watering cans! oh my gosh...i had NO IDEA liberty was at target!!!! this is the best combo of both of my loves:
fashion - http://www.runwaydaily.com/ and
home design - http://www.casacullen.com/
thanks for the POST!!! i see i have to wait till mid-march though...counting down the days!
Do they have rugs in their target collection?
Must also be featuring a Liberty of London Time Machine so we can jump ahead to March 14th.
Just broke my piggy bank. I'm in!
It's 1968 all over again...
i saw a commercial for this and almost feel out of my chair!
You're showing your age, dear.
Why oh why is there not a Target store in Canada? Do they not realize how successful they would be?
I love you TheBay, but you guys need to pick up the slack. Eaton's had revamped near the end and had a really cool tween/fun section, but it was too late by then. Do not let this happen to you!
Very similar to the new Ikea Renate line:
It's interesting that Liberty's using their 60s/70s archive and not the classic Tana lawn prints. I think this stuff is pretty good, but I'm not bowled over by the actual products. The bike's the most inspired.
You'll have to speak a little louder - What did you say?
Now where's my laprobe and tea?
Oh, and did I ever tell you of the time Betty Ford and I met for lunch in 1975?
We drank to her husband's health and she didn't stop until the Reagan Administration, the poor thing...
so cute!
Jose A - Agreed, and Ikea's new fabric line looks a lot like the new French General fabric line...
How I wish those storage boxes did not have contrasting color around the lids. I am guessing they did that to save money on pattern-matching but I think they'd look so much better even if the pattern didn't match up at all. Likewise, the white banding around the top edge of the canisters & on the lids makes them look cheap. I really wish these Target designer collaborations would stick to simpler objects so that they wouldn't have to cut such glaring corners.
OMG, it's so 60s, but I want every single piece!
Nope, the sixties were bad enough the first time around, I think I'll pass. (Except maybe for that peacock pillow... Do kinda love that!)
Oh that bicycle reminds me of my mother's bike back in the seventies. It was an old thing that she jazzed up with pink floral tackyback in the frame and a bright pink, painted basket up front! I loved that bike....
Erm, I meant tackyback ON the frame not in it. Just carried away on a wave of nostalgia!
Most of this stuff will be passe in very short order. And it isn't too pretty, now. I'll pass.
The tea pot's white spout enrages me.
I suppose they're using these prints because Liberty's trying to be a little wiser about how they use the classic stuff; protecting the brand, etc. They themselves manufacture and sell much less of the print stuff than they used to. In the 80's that ground floor gifts section was like Aladdin's cave of Liberty print bits and bobs, but no more.
I am counting the days til this launch..
Jose A, I'm going to have to respectfully disagree..the similarity ends in that they are 'florals' and 'bright colours'. The design of the Liberty range is more pulled together, with stronger outlines and definition than the Ikea Renata link you posted..
I am sitting on the fence. I think the dishes and serveware are kind of cute. I agree with comments with concern about the quality - this makes a difference to me.
I think I need one of those watering cans for my day job.:)
I should like these--being half-English and loving a lot of 60s retro stuff--but I don't. Everything's feeling very Vera Bradley to me.
The floral lamp shade is fabulous!!
No Ianthe or Strawberry Thief, sadly. Now THAT'S something I'd camp out for.
GASP!! Absolutely lovely! I used to live in London and go to Liberty like every weekend. I couldn't afford anything then as I was just a student and everything there was expensive...
I must go to a Target store very soon and check the quality. I really really hope they are not crappy...because I want them all!!
Does anyone know if there is an end date for this collection?
Where can I get this in Canada - does anyone know??
I realize this post is old, but just wanted to let everyone know that I have both the Liberty of London and Missoni bikes for sale right now on eBay. Thanks! :)

Very spacious modern apartment. Everything you could think of - was provided. Very clean and decorated to high standard. Staff very helpful indeed, calling to check I was on way as delayed to arrange collection of keys - excellent service and comfortable stay. I will definately plan another stay! Thanks. ;0) - Anonymous
Fantastic, well appointed accommodation. We were lucky enough to have a south-west facing apartment overlooking the river and enjoyed each evening with a bottle of wine on the balcony. Extremely clean, beautifully furnished and very quiet. Merchants Quay was about a 15 minute walk away, and the Town Centre a similar distance in the other direction. We are looking forward to our next break with Space in the City. We didn't get chance to enjoy the leisure facilities but they looked very good. - Anonymous
Super hotel with friendly and accommodating staff who went out of their way to help you and make your stay as comfortable and enjoyable as possible. The hotel is right in the centre of the town and this makes it perfect for short city trips as you can wander in for shopping, sightseeing and food then go back easily and relax! - Anonymous
Stayed in an apartment not hotel. Ideally situated, great value and extremely clean and comfortable. Will definitely return. Lady booking us in was extremely helpful. - Shawn
This was an excellent place to stay. Very friendly staff and very very clean. We stayed for 2 nights in the superior double and we will most defiantly be staying again when next in the area. Car parking is not a problem ans the stree is nice a quiet. You are only a few mins walk from the city centre. One word of advise, GET OFF THE MOTORWAY AT JUNCTION 32! this cuts out all the traffic and the sat nav will try and take you down a dean end road as the roads have now been blocked off. - Anonymous
Stayed in the Bach suite on rugby international day. Very convenient to Stadium, able to park car outside apartment for free. Ground floor, easy access, everything worked well and the owners even provided a wide range of complimentary items on our arrival. Spotlessly clean. Would definitely stay again. - Anonymous
Close to town only 5 pounds in a taxi, the apartment was big enough for the 6 of us , clean had everything we needed. Arun the man who met us with the keys was fantastic.. Considering we locked our selfs out within 2 mins of getting our keys he was very patient and understanding. As a group we were all very happy and will definitely be staying again. - Anonymous

Decided I might try to do some 30 day monster girl challenge, but I have no intention of doing it in 30 days. I just like monsters and lists.
So I guess these were fun, wanted to draw two different interpretations…but don't you hate when you return to a drawing after not seeing it for hours and then decide it looks stupid!? That's how I feel about the bottom one oh laaaawd.

You say you've never been hypnotized? Can't be hypnotized? Au contraire, says Winters, who claims people unknowingly undergo hypnosis on a daily basis. A long car drive or hours in front of a computer are just a couple examples of everyday hypnosis.
You guys get hypnotized when you're daydreaming, he told the Pause audience. It happens 20 times a day.
For people who wanted a more significant hypnosis experience, Winters' show was the place to be. He invited 18 audience members to the stage, where for nearly two hours they succumbed to the subconscious. At the beginning of the show, Winters defined hypnosis as a process of slowing down the busy part of the brain, the active part of the brain. He emphasized his inability to control the behavior of hypnotized participants. I can't control a single person, he said. I only give suggestions.
And suggest he did. Winters took hypnotized participants to the beach, to a petting zoo and on a roller coaster. In a particularly memorable scene, he invited participants to attend a party celebrating their 200th birthdays. As participants sat with eyes closed, slumped over each other in an arc of chairs, Winters suggested away. You guys are ancient, he told the group. You guys are so wickedly old.
When they opened their eyes, participants had no shortage of answers to Winters' questions about their age. How did they get to be so old? I didn't die, said one participant. Did they have any words of wisdom for youngsters? Say no to crack, one person replied. Don't pee in the wind, said another.
Throughout the evening, participants laid eggs, performed in an opera, turned into animals and lost their clothes at least, they thought they did all to the delight of the audience.
Winters did not learn hypnosis after joining the circus and studying with a snaggle-toothed, crystal ball-wielding old woman. While that is a tempting story to tell, Winters' normalcy is much more interesting. Winters is a graduate of Northwestern University. When a hypnotist came to campus his freshman year, Winters was so fascinated by the show that he later contacted the hypnotist, a man who would mentor him for four years. When Winters worked as a tennis instructor at a resort during summers, he put on shows for guests. He later worked in clinical hypnosis until he discovered the college niche.
I just picked up some shows on the side for extra money, not realizing there was a huge campus market, he said.
Winters, named 2006 Campus Entertainer of the Year by Campus Activities Magazine, also does shows for corporations. Yet he said he finds college students to be the most enthusiastic participants. Their willingness just guides them into this fantasy world, he said.
After 25 years in the business, Winters said he still doesn't know what to expect from show to show. Every show people say things I've never heard in my life and I wonder where they come up with these things, he said. In past shows, Winters has been slapped and spit on by hypnotized participants. At the Pause event, someone doused Winters with a bit of his own bottled water.
A question plaguing every hypnotist show is whether or not participants are actually hypnotized or are simply playing along for laughs. Of course, no Oles confessed any pretending, at least not to this writer. Was Stephen Anderson '09 really hypnotized? Completely, completely, he said. Anderson said he remembered certain points in the show like when his leg got stuck in a chair but he didn't recall why those incidents happened.
Jonathon Mahnke '10 said he couldn't believe he was onstage for two hours. I knew what I was doing but I didn't care, he said.
After the show, audience members had the opportunity to purchase hynosis-inducing CDs. Created by Winters, they tackled issues ranging from learing better study habits to losing weight and building confidence.
Even after many years in the business, Winters remains excited about his profession. Im one of the old dogs now, he said. But I love it.

Not surprisingly, Chrissy Teigen, Lily Aldridge and Nina Agdal had to sweat to get their butts looking so good for the 50th anniversary issue of Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit edition. In an interview with OK! magazine, posted on Wednesday, Feb. 19, the three models shared how they get their behinds in shape.
For Nina, it's all about "lots of squats" and "lots of running."
"I go to Barry's BootCamp, and they have a whole workout routine for your butt and your legs. It will help you out that way," she added.
Chrissy Teigen credits her behind to Ballet Barre classes and Physique 57 workouts.
As for Lily Aldridge, she does Ballet Beautiful "four times a week for an hour."
Of course, the models also have to eat right. Lily makes sure to eat a lot of fish and vegetables so that she's not tempted to eat fattening snacks.
Not everyone is pleased with the cover however. The "Today" show even censored it during its segment with the three models, prompting them to defend the photo.
Who do you think looks best on the cover? Chrissy Teigen, Lily Aldridge or Nina Agdal?
