Tree falls in Fulton Heights, takes power lines with it
SALISBURY — A massive oak tree estimated to be 100 years old fell Monday in the 600 block of Maupin Avenue, taking with it power, cable and phone lines.
Firefighters, police officers and a Duke Energy representative were on the scene around 1 p.m. The city's street department was expected to help clear the road in the Fulton Heights neighborhood.
The tree fell across three yards, and branches blocked the street. The tree pulled down several power lines and broke utility poles. Additional power lines were compromised, according to Capt. D.M. Nichols.
Firefighters went door to door to check on residents and warn them to stay inside until Duke Energy could de-energize the downed power lines.
No one was in immediate danger, Nichols said.

eggs in bell pepper rings
eggs in onion rings
both healthy, brilliant uses of "ingredients on hand", and goes great on buttered toast!
Oooh! The hashes and eggs look delicious. But the boy and I are not huge fans of fluffy, "souffle" omelets. Eggs should not be that puffy! Unless they're in actual souffle.
My most revelatory egg-related meal recently? Two eggs, fried over easy in bacon fat, dusted liberally with salt, and eaten on dry whole grain toast. The runny yolks turn into this delicious, salty cheese-type sauce that makes everything all right with the world.
I do need to learn how to poach an egg though. It's probably healthier than frying them.
I absolutely adore a good soft boiled egg. Here's Poetic Appetite's awesome recipe: http://poeticappetite.blogspot.com/2011/05/soft-cooked-eggs.html
A very close second is Smitten Kitchen's soft scrambled egss-the method is perfection, I won't even try any other way at this point:)
Eggs should not be cooked in a microwave. Ever.
Jeez I hate comments that are not productive! There have been plenty of 'microwave or not' disagreements on threads, and sure, it's not for everyone.. But I for one love to microwave eggs when I need to run out of the house. I toast the english muffin the same time the egg is in my oversized mug, wrap it up and head out. David Chang's video recipe -- found on youtube -- is the perfect example. I've used assorted cheeses, random cured italian meats, or just the egg & seasoning. 30 second increments create a beautiful egg and I bet most would not realize it was microwaved.
I adore baked eggs in tomato cups! Easy to vary. Easy to cook. Looks fabulous. http://www.instructables.com/id/Baked-Eggs-Ham-Asparagus-in-Tomato-Cups/ I bake mine in a muffin pan to prevent the tomatoes from falling over.
I love poaching eggs in the microwave.. no need to break out a pot and no need to swirl.. just put it in a microwavable bowl, cover with water, and nuke for 40 s or little more. I'm not sure what the vehement anti microwavism is about, but boo ya.
Really? I miss having a microwave. The omelet maker for the microwave was da bomb!


text: Kind of suprising to me as well that those are concerns. I would think the only real concern would be string and cable length. Letting them come in closer to the bow, even at rest would make me think that the cables and string would need to be a hair shorter. On my Firecat, it looks like the cables sit closer to centerline at rest than they do on my Moab with the cable rod and slide.

text: I've had one bow over the past 3 years come in not as ordered(wrong color limbs). I just let the customer take it as is and shoot it untill the correct limbs came in, then we swapped them out, Martin was fine with this as it was their mistake. I would suggest having your shop call and explain what happened and have them just order the correct limbs rather than send the bow back, at least this way you'll have your bow to shoot untill the correct limbs come in.


text: What D-loop material does everyone use? Got a pack of the Wildman D-loops, and haven't had much luck with them at all. Good for maybe 300 arrows, and they start to fray pretty badly. Thought it might be my release, but the loops on my other bows aren't showing any signs of damage. Thanks guys!

LoveLewisham & LoveCleanStreets
A few weeks ago I met with Darryl Chamberlain from Civic Exchange to discuss our LoveLewisham/LoveCleanStreets project. You can read his article here.
LoveLewisham on BBC Breakfast
Beyond Channel Shift
We launched our LoveLewisham app back in 2005. Since then, lots of councils have embraced this kind of technology. Much of the focus has been on making it easier for residents to report problems to the local authority, usually promoted in the local press with a 'We've got an app for that' story. These apps are increasingly being used as part of the 'Channel Shift' agenda. Shifting residents away from call centres to report environmental problems can certainly save some money, but I don't think this approach exploits the transformative potential of mobile technology.
Why wait for citizens to report things that our own staff and partners might have driven past several times already?
Is there ever a scenario where it will actually cost less to deal with a problem the longer we leave it? Graffiti attracts more graffiti, rubbish encourages more dumping etc. Refuse & recycling collection crews typically drive down every street in the borough at least twice a week, usually early in the morning. Getting them to use the LoveLewisham app helped us reduce call centre traffic by over 30% and drive-up satisfaction with our services. I'm convinced that we can take these ideas much further and go well beyond 'Channel Shift '.
I'm looking forward to sharing some of these ideas at the Service Design in Government Conference. I shall present case study called 'We've got an app for that' is old hat! Going Beyond Channel Shift With LoveLewisham"
For Twitter users the hashtag for the conference is #SDingov @sdingov
Love Lewisham Love Yimby!
We're really pleased to be working with the fabulous community crowdfunding site Yimby ["Why are we called Yimby? We're the exact opposite of that moany Nimby (not in my backyard) lot. We're the people who don't take no for an answer and make good stuff happen. Oh and we're from the people behind JustGiving. Think of us as the noisy younger sibling."].
The LoveLewisham app will help residents identify local Yimby project proposals. A new 'Yimby Propsal' category will be added to the LoveLewisham app soon. This is part of a wider hook-up with the LoveCleanStreets system, which of course all started with LoveLewisham, so we're really proud to pioneer the Yimby partnership!
Lewisham Trees Downed By Storm
Channel Avoid with LoveCleanStreets
These are just some of the reports from one of our refuse workers using our LoveLewisham app this morning. The first report was posted at 6.40 am. Each one of these reports is a potential resident call to our Contact Centre or, worse still a piece of costly complaint casework.
Since we've been using LoveLewisham, Environment-related calls to our Contact Centre have dropped by over 30%, saving £500 in Contact-centre costs alone. Lots of councils are rightly thinking about the savings that can be gained by channel-shifting resident reports from Contact Centres to the web or mobile web forms. Our experience points to a higher prize. Using our employees and partners to get to the problem first, using a richer, 'work anywhere' app like LoveCleanStreets to Channel-Avoid.

Hey Guys and Gals,
I attended a very informal "shoot" near my home this week-end that had a pretty good attendance. Shooting was out of doors at bales with targets, and of course, there was every brand of bow in attendance.....especially represented by the big three. Well, I had my Bengal and Warthog with me, and did pretty well, but the purpose of my e-mail is to state that of the bows there, I preferred my Martins to any of them. I had a chance to try a number of bows out, and frankly, none had the smooth feel and just right balance in my hands. I know that there's been a lot of flaming of Martin lately, even on this site. Heck, I've been frustrated by my Warthog, too, but I have to tell you, I don't think that there's a better bow out there. Part of the reason for my post is to maybe make up for some of the comments that I've made that were born of my frustration at some repeated tackle failures, but overall, I don't think that you can do much better than a bow from Martin or their new spin off company, Alien. Saying that their price is right sounds like your saying that it's a good, cheap bow, and that's not what I'm saying. What I mean is that they're simply a great bow, period, regardless of the price. Anyway, I don't work for Martin.....just a customer, and after reading some comments recently by a few souls that have had a bad experience, thought that I'd just add a little real, heartfelt kudo's that I think Martin deserves. Anyway.....good shooting!

Bartow County Sheriff's Office deputies responding to a domestic dispute on Trimble Hollow Road just before 9 p.m. issued a be-on-the-lookout for one suspect's vehicle after he fled the scene. The man was stopped shortly thereafter by Adairsville Police Department officers in the area of International Parkway at Highway 140, Adairsville Police Chief Robert Jones said about 10:30 p.m.
Officers arrested the driver, with BCSO deputies arriving as backup. Once officers removed the driver from the maroon Cadillac sedan, they discovered a metal pipe with a fuse, Jones said. The area was then shut down until additional agencies could arrive.
Jones said the suspect was transported to the jail where Federal Bureau of Investigation agents were conducting interviews Tuesday night.
At 10:30 p.m. APD, BCSO, Bartow County Fire Department and EMS were on scene, along with a Floyd County bomb squad. Officials were awaiting the arrival of a bomb unit from the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives.
Jones said businesses in the area, which mainly consist of industrial facilities, were locked down and roadways were closed for safety reasons.
The incident in Adairsville was not the only suspicious package call emergency personnel received.
A woman traveling on a tour bus north on Interstate 75 caused a commotion when she requested that a fragile package be handled with care and not jostled, officials on the scene said.
The driver of the bus became concerned and called the Georgia State Patrol, who stopped the bus about just before 10 p.m. on Cass-White Road in the area of Old Grassdale. Troopers inspected the package, which was discovered to be electronic equipment.

The Tour of Utah kicked off Wednesday with a road race course that took the riders around the rolling landscape south of Salt Lake City. This gradual start to the climbing bonanza that will mark much of the rest of the race to come gave the riders a chance to stretch their legs in anticipation of the big climbs on the horizon.
BMC focused its attention on keeping the race under control while not committing too many resources. Finishing comfortably in the pack just 20 seconds behind the winning breakaway, the BMC climbing specialists could feel confident about their day's performance.
Monitoring events while metering out efforts
"Today turned out to be a pretty uneventful stage from a GC point of view," General Manager Gavin Chilcott reported. "If it had been a windy day, there could have been a big fight on the stage, but as it was, all the teams with GC ambitions rode calmly." The eventual stage winner came from a group of four riders who escaped the peloton and at one point had 6-7 minutes on the group as their largest time split. "A break that we didn't have a problem with got away from the group," Chilcott said. "We contributed to the chase in order that the break didn't surprise us all and take real time out, but at the finish line the three remaining break companions had maybe 20 seconds on the group, so we were pleased with the day's outcome." Utah resident and BMC climbing ace, Darren Lill agreed that the stage went very much according to plan. "Three of our guys, Jonathan Garcia, Brent Bookwalter and Ian McKissick, rode at the front of the pack to contribute to the policing of the stage," Lill explained. "But since the break wasn't threatening, I don't think they rode for the last 25 miles since there was no reason to squash the break, and it became the job of the sprinters' teams to bring it back." "Today was an exercise in metering out our efforts and conserving our resources," Chilcott said. "We used Jonathan, Brent and Ian to monitor the gap so we wouldn't lose control, but we were careful not to overdo it." This tactic was adopted by many of the other GC teams including Toyota-United and Rock Racing. "Today was an easily understood stage," Chilcott concluded. "In the absence of a strong wind everyone was thinking the same thing; tomorrow will be much more demanding and important."
Put on your climbing legs
The riders will not have to wait too long for the decisive stages to begin since Thursday's Stage 2 will present them with four big climbs and a slight uphill kick to the finish. "Tomorrow there are three really decent climbs, but the last big one comes about 27km for the finish," Darren Lill explained. "The ride into the finish is fairly flat, though it is uphill the last 150 meters." Since BMC has spent the past 10 days training together in Utah, they will have the advantage of knowing intimately each other's form. "We have ridden the courses which should benefit everyone at the end of the day," Lill said. "I have had a really good block of training since Cascade, and with the recent camp I have seen that everyone on the team is climbing extremely well." With the last big climb of the day tomorrow coming so far from the finish, the race tactics could become complicated. "We will see how the day plays out: if there is a lot of wind then the lead group shouldn't be too much bigger than 5-10 guys," Lill predicted. "Knowing how strong our team is, we should have several present in that group." The uphill sprint after a tough day of climbing will also figure heavily in the final outcome. "Tomorrow suits me pretty well I think," Lill continued. "I can have a pretty good kick at the end of a stage like that, and if it is a larger group coming to the line together, we most certainly should have 4 or 5 guys there, so we will have a lot of options to play." Thursday's road race will certainly give an indication of who should be considered a threat to the overall.

Sorry, been really busy lately. Finished my final final on Friday, moved out on Saturday, and now I'm living out of a suitcase at my grandma's for a couple days. I intend to start working for real on multiuser within a week or so, once I get done traveling and settle in.
My suspicion is that the change in permissions was due to udev. That's just a very slightly educated guess.

Dr_Willis from #puppylinux chat said that /dev is generated on every boot by fly, so we need to set permissions for those dev files somewhere in rc maybe (rc.local, rc.sysinit) ?

This project is not dead yet!
I wound up getting delayed and not being able to start working on it when I intended to. Then shortly after I did get started, I had some technical difficulties with my laptop. I salvaged all the data, but my laptop has such a small harddrive that I decided to just not bother doing any more until I got back from break and could use my real computer. I got back last weekend. So far I've restored my multi-user work and done a little more. I've implemented most of the stuff in this thread, minus the /dev/ptmx part, which is what I just came to the forum for (couldn't remember which file it was).
I'm also going to add the real 'useradd' program (and related stuff) so that it can make use of /etc/skel/ for creating the user's home directory.
I also didn't do anything about /etc/windowmanager yet. I had forgotten about that. Sticking it in ~/Choices/ sounds like a good idea.
Anyways, just thought I'd mention I hadn't given up or anything. I'd better get back to work.

So... what is the intention here?
To me it would be cool if at some point (for example, when going through the dialog for saving the initial pupsave), the user is asked if he wants a single-user Puppy or a multi-user one. Then all the stuff you guys figure out will be done automatically for him. Of course this requires lobbying Barry...
However even if I may never use multi-user, I can see one huge benefit. Of all the reviews I've seen of Puppy, the largest complaint by far was booting as root. This removes the largest single drawback to adoption of Puppy, at least as far as reviewers are concerned.
Failing all that, a good "How To" would be OK, as long as it is made sticky (it's that important).

The intention here is not implementing this in official puppies, and I don't even think that using puppy as root is bad, but we wanna see here what's doable and try to apply all those hacks and then maybe collect all that and make some puplet, what you think Pizzasgood?
Anyway if we can make multiuser setup that means others can too. We can make some howto or just follow steps from this thread and I'm sure you could do same.

Well, I'd personally like to see Puppy adopt the changes.
My intention is to release a multiuser-friendly Puplet based on 4.2.1, and maybe a .pet or set of patches or something. I also intend to post exactly what I did to make it, so that other people can do the same things to other versions. It will also make it easier for people more knowledgeable than I to spot things I forget or do incorrectly.
That's especially important since I don't intend to maintain this. Multiuser Puppy is the last major Puppy commitment on my list before I go off to do other stuff. So I need to document it well so that other people can continue it if they want.
I have three motivations for doing this:
A linux distro that can't handle multiuser out of the box feels almost defective.
There are several cases where true multiuser support would be nice - particularly sharing with a family, especially with people (kids/siblings) who might "inadvertently" try to delete the harddrive, which the multiple pup_save.2fs method does nothing to guard against.
To put an end to the complainers.
It won't have any concept of "modes". Either you use it as root, or you make another user and use it as the other user. It will still default to root and not prompt for a login, so it can be used exactly how Puppy currently is, for people like me who prefer this way. I'll add a wizard to modify /etc/inittab to let the user optionally disable the auto-login though.
There are some things I don't intend to handle very elegantly. PetGet support in particular. That can't really be done properly in a mere puplet. So I'm just going to make that root-only, and people can copy config files into their home directories by hand if they need to. I
make a script that will copy /root into /etc/skel and do a little cleanup (fixing paths and symlinks, for example). I'm going to link that script to the createpuppy script in the unleashed tree I use to build it, so that it will come with an /etc/skel/ directory that's already populated.
I noticed that when starting X as a user, the ddcprobe command (used by xwin to see if the monitor has changed) complains about not having permission to use /dev/mem. I really don't think /dev/mem should be accessible by users, so I toggled the setuid bit on ddcprobe instead, so that the permissions on /dev/mem can be left restrictive. Maybe it would be better to just not have users use ddcprobe, but I don't really see anything wrong with it. I do intend to set up personal xorg.conf files so that users can have different resolutions and such.

Hey, I like that one
FWIW I think most people recognise that it would be good for Puppy to be multi-user capable.
Are you still working on that volume mixer too, Pizzasgood?

Currently no, but I plan to get back to it again after I finish this. I have most of the functionality done and it's usable now. The main things missing are the menus so that you don't have to edit the config file to set your preferences. The code is all at Puppy's sourceforge page, and one of the last things I did with it last spring was get it working using the standard autotools deal, so that it uses the normal ./configure; make; make install process. I'm not making use of any configure options yet though.
Xvesa will work as a limited user, but you have to first set its setuid bit. You can also change the resolution while it's running, but only for that session. Still need to look at the xvesa wizard to find out where it stores the settings.
I edited the xwin script to replace instances of /etc/X11 with a variable, and added some code that detects whether /etc/X11/$(whoami)/xorg.conf exists. If it does, it sets the variable to /etc/X11/$(whoami), otherwise /etc/X11. If it exists it also sets the $XORGCONFIG environment variable to $(whoami)/xorg.conf, so that Xorg will use that version of the config file instead of /etc/X11/xorg.conf. So then all you need to do to allow a user to have his own Xorg configuration is create a directory with his name in /etc/X11 and chown it to him.
I also did that to xorgwizard and adjusted the paths to some temporary files, but it still didn't let me run xorgwizard as a limited user. The wizard uses 'Xorg -configure' to generate an initial version of the xorg.conf file, but Xorg refuses to let a non-root user run that. I'll have to have it bypass that part for limited users, and instead copy the existing xorg.conf file from /etc/X11/ (assuming there is one) and edit that, without building a new one.

Didn't do much over the last week. Got Xvesa running and set up the video-wizard to store the preferences in ~/Choices/ so that it will be user-specific. I also adjusted the configuration of the passwd program so that it will work with passwords longer than 8 characters. And I wrote three gui wizards that let you enable/disable auto-login, add users, and change your password. The password wizard can actually be given a username as a commandline parameter and it will change that user's password instead (if you're root). The adduser wizard calls it that way after it finishes so that the new user can be given a password.
I'm going to try to clean up most of the main loose ends and upload a beta by next Sunday.

md5sum: 4b094160a5c55ed072e7737a90ccf218
The vast bulk of things should work, but this is a beta - there are a number of things that don't work, and a bunch of things I haven't even tested.
You must be root for most of the system configuration stuff (changing the date, mounting drives, configuring the network, etc.).
Limited users cannot use xorgwizard, nor choose between Xorg and Xvesa (actually, they could make the choice manually by copying the xwin script into their home directory and editing it, then using that one rather than the real one). If root gives them a directory named after them in /etc/X11 (for example, /etc/X11/pizzasgood), the limited user can manually set up an xorg.conf file in there and it should be used instead of the system-wide one in /etc/X11/. Limited users
run the video-wizard for Xvesa though.
Limited users can set their own timezone by hand by editing their ~/.bashrc file to set and export the TZ variable to point at the relevant timezone in /usr/share/zoneinfo. I might set up the timezone wizard to be able to do something like this automatically.
There are entries in the menu under setup to create new users and set your password. There is also an entry to set whether Puppy should automatically log in as root (naturally, you must be root to use those. Unfortunately, that goes for the password one too. Limited users will need to just use
for now. I'll see what I can work out for the next beta.).
The default behavior is to automatically log you in as root, just like normal Puppy. And it automatically relogs you if you log out, so if you want to actually log in as another user, you need to either disable the autologin, OR you could just push the left ALT key and F2 to switch to a different virtual terminal and log in there. (NOTE: Normally Puppy only has two virtual terminals set up, and a third used by X. However, for this one I set up terminals 1-6, with 7 used by X.)
Make sure X is shut down before you try starting another X as a different user.
The script that can populate /etc/skel based on /root is named
and accepts some options to specify the locations of /root and /etc/skel if you feel like using alternate locations. It also has some options to tell it how much effort to put into making the copied files multiuser-firendly. Note: in my experience, it seems to corrupt the copied seamonkey profile, so you probably want to run
rm -r /etc/skel/.mozilla
after using this).
It has already been used during creation so that /etc/skel starts out populated. If you use the '-m' option when running useradd, then /etc/skel will be used to create the user's home dir. (If you use the graphical wizard, it automatically uses the -m).
Fixmenus, xorgwizard, and petget all need to be run as root. I added code to fixmenus and petget to automatically exit if you aren't root, so that things that automatically run them don't spew a bunch of errors and waste time being confused. I previously worked on xorgwizard and got it nearly working for non-root users, but couldn't finish the job - it requires running "Xorg -configure" which only root can do. I didn't get around to adding the code to check that you're root because I thought I might try my hand at letting it edit an existing xorg.conf file, but I haven't gotten around to it. I'm not sure whether I will or not.
As for fixmenus, I don't really feel like wrapping my mind around how it works now and how to make it work for limited users. To really do the job properly, the system would need to be extended a bit so that it could detect which items are root-only and not bother putting them into the limited user's menus.
Most of the things in the desktop category of the menu should probably work. I played around with the JWM and Pwidgets stuff and they seemed okay. I couldn't use the icon changer or the wallpaper setter though. I'll look into those...
I did do some large-scale sed commands to replace most of the instances of '/root/' with '${HOME}/' in the misc. scripts in Puppy. I stayed away from the remaster scripts so far though - they shouldn't touch the limited users for the most part. It's concievable that somebody might want to set up a remaster that includes their limited user's settings too, of course. But since I have never used the remaster scripts (other than maybe twice to test something) and never intend to, I'm just going to leave them be. People more familiar with what the typical remaster-script users want can deal with them. AFAIK, they should still pick up all the changes that I've done so that remasters would be multi-user friendly too. (If something does need adjustment for that purpose, let me know!).
Users do have the ability to adjust the audio levels. The mixer in the tray didn't start up as a limited user, but alsamixer worked fine. I'll have to look into that more next.
Limited users do not get desktop drive icons. Also, I haven't looked at the pup_event system yet, so if you look in the error file you'll probably see lots of errors from that. Don't worry about it.
I don't know if limited users can print. Another thing I'll have to look into.
Between depriving a man of one hour from his life and depriving him of his life there exists only a difference of degree. --Muad'Dib

I wouldn't've thought mounting drives was
system configuration
... do you intend for it to stay like that?

Tracing gets you nowhere.I remember when I was a kid, I'd record Saturday morning cartoons, play them back, pause the image, put a piece of paper over the screen and trace my favourite characters.
Now this was really hard in the VHS era, because a paused image on a VHS is usually either broken up or shakes so much that you'll have some kind of fit if you look at it too long, it depended on how cheap and sh*tty your machine was.
But I worked really hard at it, man. I spent ages getting the linework just right, I was so careful, and when I peeled the page from the static cling of the bulbous, cathode ray tube screen, the character looked exactly right on the page. And you wanna know what I took away from that endeavour? What all that effort taught me?
Jack f**king sh*t.
You don't pick up or develop any skills by tracing. You don't devise and perfect your own methods by tracing. You do not progress as an artist by tracing. All you get is a loss of credibility, especially in this day and age, bec

That time of year again!I can't believe it's been a whole year since I've updated my journal! Sorry for being so out of touch. As usual, my lame excuse is that I'm busy - but for a not-lame reason, at least. If you haven't already heard, I'm directing my first feature film. Its an animated comedy based on the myth of Medusa. We're in the early phases of development at Sony Pictures Animation, and I'm in a daily state of shock and gratitude for the opportunity.
But that's not why I'm posting!
Ironically, and embarrassingly, the very last journal I posted - a whole year ago - was to announce the same thing. My pals at the Wildlife Learning Center in Sylmar, CA are holding their annual fundraiser on Oct. 25 from 4-7 and I'd like to extend an invitation to all my DA friends!
And just like last year, I'll be there to chat and sign stuff. So bring your MLP or Powerpuff goodies that are in need of a name scribbled on them! You can purchase tickets
Tracing and EmulationAfter reading through the comments in my previous journal, I feel the need to clarify a couple of things.
First: Tracing. Does. Not. Help. You. Improve. Your. Art.
Never has, never will and you're kidding yourself if you think otherwise.
Second: Emulation is not tracing. People seem to be having trouble telling the difference.
Tracing does not teach you anything because all you're doing is copying the line work of an existing image. All the real work has already been done. You're not learning how the image is constructed or discovering for yourself how to use your drawing tools to create the desired effect. You'd be better off just outright copy/pasting the base image and saving yourself the time.
Emulation on the other hand, be it simply trying to recreate an existing image by eye or (even better) going all out and trying to adopt an existing style, does improve your method. By "reverse engineering&

mindful – bearing in mind; attentive to; being aware of and taking into account
construct – an intangible schema; a concrete concept
Mindful Construct – A schema for conceptualizing the world and our reality by being aware of and taking into account our belief systems and assumptions about the world, both subconscious and conscious, so that we may exercise more response ability in our lives and better realize our goals, values, passions, and potentials.
Welcome to Mindful Construct. The writings here focus primarily on the topic of emotional health and practical ways in which we can become more mindful of how we construct our own lives – or how we can be more response able to life.
Life doesn't happen to us – it happens, and then we have choice in how we respond. I believe that we will expand our choices as we realize the importance of staying connected to our feelings and working with them instead of against them. Feelings are merely thoughts that contain evaluative meaning which are entwined with beliefs and subconscious patterns – integral parts of ourselves – and if we choose to listen to our feelings, we can learn more about who we truly are and who we want to be.
No matter what happens in life, we always have the choice to mobilize ourselves and frame or reframe our situation so that we can grow from it and build a better future. It takes time, courage, patience, and brutal honesty, but it is possible. It is possible to create a mindful construct in many, many different ways, of which we will explore through the writings here.

A modern metalsmith/metal artist can be found working in traditional metals as well as in nontraditional materials. The designs can range from the classic to the extravagant, and the techniques can either be centuries old or decidedly current.
The wide range of expression preferences, design options, materials, and processes has lead within our field to unfavorable misconceptions, misunderstandings and in some cases even outright disdain between artists. Can the metal and jewelry field overcome its division and send out a much-needed signal?
We appreciate and respect our historical past and acknowledge that current materials have a rightful place in jewelry/object making!
Arriving at this message is the goal of this traveling exhibition opening at the SNAG conference in Boston 2015, Velvet da Vinci, San Francisco, CA - Aug 19 - Sept 20, 2015, Equinox Gallery, San Antonio, TX - Oct 16 - Nov 15, 2015, Baltimore Jewelry Center, Baltimore, MD - Dec 11, 2015 - Jan 08, 2016, Brooklyn Metal Works, Brooklyn, NY - Feb 5 - Mar 4, 2016, Thomas Mann's Gallery I/O April 1 - June 25, 2016.

I feel very strongly about an issue in today's society and that issue is beauty. Girls today, even myself, are constantly worrying about what others think of them and how they can fit into the perfect mold that media sets in place. So to raise awareness, I am planning on making a video about the TRUE meaning of beauty, but I need your help! If you would like to help, message me and I will send you my e-mail address. Then, record a video of yourself sharing your definition of beauty not the definition that hollywood throws at us. I will most likely use your video in it and in the description I will make sure to add your name if you would like!
Please Please Please help me raise awareness!! Reblog this, tell a friend and pass it on! Anyone is welcome to partake because EVERYONE is beautiful!
And remember, stay YOU. You dont need to change for anyone!

Telecommunications companies were one of the early adopters of digital transactions. Since cell phones are digital devices, it makes sense that the
transactions be digital too. Making a payment is as easy as the swipe of a credit card and signing on a Wacom signature pad. The customer will receive a
regular receipt, but the payment record is kept digitally for better management.
The Wacom signature pads can also be used for signing cell phone contracts and other agreements. The stylish design fits in seamlessly with the counters at
telecommunications stores and when not in use, the signature pads can show advertisements and promotions.

The Radisson Blu Plaza Hotel is Oslo's most prominent hotel in the most literal sense: The 37-story skyscraper is the tallest building in Norway, and towers above the other buildings in the city skyline. With 676 rooms, it's also Norway's largest hotel -- and as part of the luxurious Radisson Blu chain, it's definitely one of the highest profile picks in Oslo. Rooms are contemporary, if chain-like, and Business Class Rooms come with added extras such as free movie channels and Nespresso machines. The ultra-decadent specialty suites have hosted numerous celebrities. The hotel's features, as one might expect for a property of this size, are many -- a restaurant with jaw-dropping views, an airy fitness center, and even a lap pool -- but there is no spa. Some may find the size impersonal, and visitors should expect some serious crowds in the sprawling lobby.
The Britannia Hotel is Trondheim's grande dame. This historic luxury property (opened in 1897) has hosted royalty, celebrities, and diplomats over the years, and today continues to be one of the city's most prestigious options. Its rooms have traditional decor (most have plaid fabrics and wood furniture), and though they're not the most luxurious in town, the hotel's real draws are its historic character, impressive restaurants, and most notably, full-service spa -- one of the only hotel spas in Norway.
This historic, 107-room property is a haven for business travelers, with multiple meeting rooms and frequent conferences hosted on-site. The location on the harbor and within walking distance of Old Town will appeal to leisure travelers as well, though the hotel can feel a bit overrun by business guests during big events. Lovely historic details include wood paneling and chandeliers, but the overall feel is slightly corporate and some areas could use renovation. Standard Rooms have traditional decor but are a bit bland, and lack the level of charm found in other parts of the hotel. Room decor gets more impressive as you go up in price category, as do the amenities: Only suites come with L'Occitane toiletries and tea/coffee makers, and only Deluxe Rooms and above get robes and slippers. All rooms come with free bottled water, minibars, flat-screen TVs.
This 50-room boutique hotel is notable for two reasons: Its charming Norway-meets-Bali decor, and its eco-friendly philosophy. Some rooms and bathrooms are tiny, and the location is a tad removed from the heart of the action (though the Royal Palace and Aker Brygge are within walking distance). But features such as rustic-chic four-poster beds with fur throws; 27-inch iMacs in the rooms in lieu of TVs; a free organic breakfast; and a small spa area with a sauna make this an attractive, intimate option.
The 121-room Fretheim Hotel is the main hotel in tiny Flam, a village that's the jumping off point for a number of fjord cruises. The property has a rich history -- it dates back to the late 19th century -- and the common spaces have charm to spare. Rooms, however, are a mixed bag; 80 percent have basic mid-range decor, while the rest are higher-end. (American Wing Rooms are contemporary, while Historic Wing Rooms -- though lacking TVs for added authenticity -- are lovely and quaint.) The hotel makes the most of its unique, naturally beautiful location with soaring glass windows in the lobby and restaurant that frame the steep surrounding mountains.
Rica Park stands out for its old-world ambiance: Think floral drapery, studded leather armchairs, and wooden bookcases lined with colorful books. It's intimate at 59 rooms, and the cozy feel is furthered by a lobby fireplace and the smell of freshly-baked waffles wafting through the lobby all afternoon, a treat for returning guests or those checking in. The decor and style of guest rooms (particularly the bathrooms) is a bit unexciting, especially considering the pleasant lobby, but they're large, and the hotel has a fairly central location near the lake and theater.
This trendy 47-room boutique hotel is located in the quiet residential neighborhood of Majorstuen, to the northeast of the Royal Palace Park. It re-opened in spring 2011 after major renovations, and now features stylish contemporary decor throughout. The building housing the hotel dates to the late 19th century, and the hotel honors Oslo's past with subtle decor details; for example, historic photographs of the city are emblazoned on the elevator doors and on decorative pillows. Rooms blend traditional elegance with modern style, and come with flat-screen TVs, minibars, and walk-in showers. The hotel offers a free breakfast buffet and cozy lobby bar, but no other features. The location is a bit removed from the heart of the action, and it's worth comparing rates with the slightly more central Carlton Hotel Guldsmeden.
With 400 rooms, a soaring atrium over the lobby, and an event space that holds up to 2,500, this hotel that opened in April 2012 is more Las Vegas than Europe. Although the location could be better, the unique design, hip bar and restaurant on the top floor, and a cozy lobby bar -- reminiscent of a W -- are all upsides. Rooms have extremely comfortable beds, and some have views of the water. Environmentally conscious guests may appreciate the hotels many eco initiatives, such as textured windows that help conserve energy and a ballroom that adjusts its temperature based on carbon dioxide output.
Opened in 2003, the 349-room Rica Nidelven is a modern structure standing over the Nidelva River, with a soaring ceiling in the lobby and lots of lovely water views from public spaces. Its standout features are its delicious food and abundance of sun-filled meeting rooms, though the 24-hour fitness center and rotating art gallery in the lobby also add to the appeal. Lower-level rooms were renovated in 2009, followed by higher-level rooms getting an update in 2012, and are sharp and bright, with sleek contemporary accents. The hotel isn't in the heart of the action, but it's a short walk to most sights, including the charming Bakklandet neighborhood.
The Clarion Hotel Admiral, housed in a historic former boat warehouse on the Bergen harbor, is a solid option within walking distance of popular sights. Though the restaurant area and many of the rooms are dated and awaiting renovation (slated to be completed by November 2013), the renovated rooms are contemporary and stylish; some have balconies with views of the water. The updated room decor is on par with that at the Clarion Collection Havnekontoret and the Radisson Blu Royal, but prices here tend to be lower -- perhaps due to the less impressive common spaces, fewer features, or location farther from Bryggen.
