The way my family waits for a table #iphones
I find that I have to force myself to write these days, nothing like when I was a school girl writing trivial entries every night in my diary. It was a routine, a religion almost.
And yet technology has made us lazy. We are now too lazy to write in our diaries at night, our lockable notebooks…
I do this all the time
I think everyone should have iPhones so I don't have to ever look at the ugly green bubbles

52 Ancestors: #7 Stephen Woodward
Stephen Woodward, a poor man with little means of support. His origins is questionable and his death date and place continue to remain a mystery.
Primary Records
Stephen Woodward and his wife Hannah, and infant son, Eliphalet, were warned out of Plaistow, New Hampshire, on 17 April 175 and told to return to Haverhill in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts from which they had come.[1] When I first saw the warning out at the New Hampshire State Archives, my first thought was, "My gosh, what knowledge or rumors of skullduggery had preceded Stephen and his small family to Plaistow (originally part of Haverhill)."
It is important that family historians take time to learn some of the law that will relate to their family. In this instance I needed to learn about "Warnings Out of Town." During the early European settlement of this county, it was the town or Parish that looked after the poor. New England towns were no exception and it is reasonable that the town inhabitants were not keen about looking after poor folks who came into town with no visible means of support. So, you see, the only "crime" committed by Stephen and his small family was that of being poor.
Stephen Woodward married Hannah Clement about 1757, perhaps in Essex County in the province of Massachusetts. Hannah was born 24 March 1732, daughter of Jonathan Clement and Sarah Watts (married 2 March 1729/30[2]), in Haverhill, Massachusetts[3]
Evidence in the Plaistow town records indicates that the family remained in Plaistow until at least 1779 when their 9th child, Tamar, was born.
All known children of Stephen and Hannah were registered with the town of Plaistow.[4]
Eliphlet, born 28 May 1758, Haverhill
Stephen, born 11 May 1760, Plaistow
Edna, born 2 September 1762, Plaistow
James, born 26 June 1765, Plaistow
Hannah, born 26 July 1767, Plaistow
Bettey, born 4 September 1769, Plaistow
Sarah, born 25 February 1772, Plaistow
Jesse, born 24 June 1774, Plaistow
Tamar, born 19 September 1779, Plaistow
The Town Records of Plaistow provide information about some of the events of Stephen's life there.
- In 1762, Stephen Woodward a laborer of Plaistow was sued for a debt owed to Samuel White (Stephen had signed the note so we know though poor, he was literate).[5]
- "An order given to Stephen Woodard on Constable Cheney for ten Shilings and Eleven pence it being a batment of his years rates he being not of age."[6]
- An order given to Stephen Woodward on Constable Eaton for one pound tens Shillings L.M. it being for his making a coffing and diging a grave for Potter."[7]
- "An order given to Stephen Woodard on Constable Eaton for seven pound fourteen Shilling L.M. it being for a ballance Due to him for his son? going to new york."[8]
It is apparent that Stephen Woodward did not (or could not) honor his agreements.
Samuel White sued Stephen Woodward in March 1762 for failure to honor an agreement. The case: Samuel White (Plaintiff), adversus Stephen Woodward (Defendant), March 1762.[9] The case involved a note dated in Haverhill, April 16, 1761:
I Stephen Woodward of Plastow
Labourer promise to pay Samuel White
on order five pounds Six Shill
ings and Eight pence Lawfull mony
mony by the twenty first day of aprill
kostant[?] with Interest for Delay for value
Recieved as witness my hand
5:6:8 [Signed] Stephen Woodward
On the 13th February 1762, the court ordered the Sheriff of the Province of New-Hampshire
"to attach the Goods or Estate of Stephen Woodward of Plastow, Labourer within our Province of New Hampshire, to the Value of fifty Pounds, and for want thereof to take the Body of the said Stephen Woodward (if he may be found in your Precinct) and him safely keep so that you have him before our Justices of our Inferiour Court of Common Pleas, next to be holden at Portsmouth, within and for our said Province of New Hampshire, on the first Tuesday in March next, then and there in our said Court to Answer unto Samuel White of Havehill in the County of Essex & province of the Massachusetts Bay Esqr in an action of the Case for that whereas the Defendant at a place called Haverhill in plastow aforesaid on the 16th Day of Aprill A:D: 1761 by his note of hand of that Date by him Signed promised the plantiff to pay him on order five pound six Shillings & Eight pence Lawfull mony by the Twenty first day of the same aprill with Interest for Delay for value Received yet the Defendant though requested hath not paid the same to this day but detanes it Said sum being to the value of Twenty six pounds fourteen Shillings New tenor bills of the province of New hampshire aforesaid with interest as aforesaid yet the defendant tho: Requested, hath not paid the same nor the value there of to this Day but injustly Detaines it."
It was ordered that "forty" pounds damages be paid to Samuel White.
Authored books
Harold Edward Woodward would have us believe that, Stephen4 Woodward (Ezekiel3, Ezekiel2, Nathaniel1) was born at Gloucester, Massachusetts, 9 March 1771. Stephen married Hannah Clement and they had children: Eliphalet, born 28 May 1758; and Stephen, born May 1761.
Unfortunately, Harold Woodward's book on the descendants of Nathaniel Woodward is not well documented, and has been used as a reference by many others who have written about Woodward families of New England.
According to the vital records of Gloucester, Massachusetts, a Stephen was born 9 March 1716, to Ezekiel and Hannah Perkins[10]
We know that Stephen Woodward did marry Hannah Clement about 1757 as evidenced in the Plaistow Town Records. However, Harold Woodward lists only two of the couples nine children, the oldest, Eliphalet, was born 28 May 1758. I have a problem with this scenario by Harold Woodward. If Stephen was the son of Ezekiel and Hannah Woodward born 9 March 1716/17 married Hannah Clement, then he would have been about forty-one or forty-two years old when his son Eliphalet was born—obviously not impossible, but I think that is unlikely that this is the Stephen that married Hannah Clement. I've found no evidence of a prior marriage for Hannah's husband. I suspect that there may be a missing generation and research continues.

52 Ancestors: #6 Jesse Woodward
I know little of my 3rd great grandfather, Jesse Woodward, father of Daniel S. Woodward. However, I do have some clues that needed to be followed when I have an opportunity. Perhaps some of those objectives can be made next week when I'm at the Family History Library in Salt Lake City.
Jesse Woodward was born in Plaistow, Rockingham County, New Hampshire, 24 June 1774, son of Stephen Woodward and Hannah Clement.[1] Stephen Woodward was a poor man with little means of support when he, with his wife Hannah, and infant Eliphalet, were warned out of Plaistow, New Hampshire, to return to Haverhill in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts from which they had come in 1759.[2] Evidence in the Plaistow town records indicate that the family stayed in Plaistow until at least when Jesse's youngest sibling was born in 1779. In 1762, Stephen Woodward a laborer of Plaistow was sued for a debt owed to Samuel White (Stephen had signed the note so we know though poor, he was literate).[3]
Jesse married Bashabe Stevens,[4] allegedly in Springfield, New Hampshire, about 1800, but no principal evidence has been found for the marriage. A Jesse Woodward paid a poll tax in Springfield, New Hampshire in 1803. No record has been located for Jesse Woodward after the 1803 tax record, and he has never been specifically located on any federal census record.
Family tradition indicates that as a young adult he went to Rumford, Maine, where he died. Extensive search in the recrods of Rumford and Oxford County, Maine, in 1996 were fruitless. No reference to Jesse has been located in the vital records of Rumford, Maine, or the probate records of Oxford County, Maine.
It would appear that Jesse Woodward died before 1837 when Bashabe is called "widow" Woodward.
In 2011 I found a death notice in the New Hampshire Patriot that stated that a Jesse Woodward, age 60, died in Springfield, New Hampshire.[5] Finally a fairly substancial clue to pursue.
Bashabe Stevens is first located in the New Hampshire deeds in 1837 when she, a resident of Salisbury, New Hampshire, widow woman, purchased about an acre of land in Boscawen, New Hampshire, from Kimball Woodward.[6] In 1846 she conveyed that property in Boscawen, New Hampshire, to her son-in-law Ezekiel Davis.[7] At the time she was residing in Lowell, Mass., probably with her daughter and son-in-law. Bashabe, who died at the age of 84, is buried in Franklin, New Hampshire, in the plot of her son Daniel S. Woodward. It is not known whether she died in Lowell, Massachusetts, or near Franklin, New Hampshire.
Jesse Woodward and Bashabe Stevens had at least two children:
- Daniel Saunders Woodward
- Diana A. Woodward (mar. Ezekiel S. Davis). In 1864 Diana probably resided in Lowell, Middlesex Co., Mass.
Jesse and Bashabe may have also been the parents Kimball Woodward (born about 1802; and died in 1845).

52 Ancestors: #5 Daniel S. Woodward
We should not simply collect records that we think belong to our ancestors (or potential ancestors) and squirrel them away in a box, file cabinet, or whatever. It is so important that we put every one of those documents through the wringer and analysis, analysis, analysis. I learned my lesson the hard way.
Of course the fact that during the past twenty years I've spent most of my research hours on historical and genealogy projects that relate to the south of the Mason Dixon line, Like the cobbler whose children have no shoes, my personal genealogical research has been very space.
In order to better understand my progress (or lack thereof) on my research relating to my 2nd great grandfather, Daniel S. Woodward, I've gone through my files and really looked at the documents I have on file. Almost immediately I saw things that completed escaped under the radar screen during past research endeavors.
Daniel S. Woodward was born about 1804 (probably in New Hampshire), the son of Jesse Woodward and Bashabe Stevens. [1] Daniel married, first, in Salisbury, Merrimack County, New Hampshire, on 8 July 1828,[2] Dorcas Adams,[3] daughter of Enoch Adams and Elizabeth Russell. Daniel married, second, Lucy (Spaulding Staples) in Franklin, New Hampshire, on 14 June 1879.[4]
Dorcas Adams was born 19 July 1797 or 1796[5] probably in the area of Salisbury, New Hampshire. Dorcas Adams was killed in Hill, New Hampshire, from falling debris of a barn when a strong storm caused the barn to collapse.[6]
Daniel died 18 January 1892, Intestate, and his widow, Lucy, choose George R. Stone to administrate his estate.[7]
Daniel S. Woodward and Dorcas Adams had at least ten children:
- Elisabeth Woodward, b. 22 Sep 1828; mar. John Pollard 3 Sep 1854; d. 23 Dec 1876.
- Hannah S. Woodward, b. 1 Nov 1830; mar. Perley Dickerson 16 Aug 1869
- Phoebe Woodward, b. 1 Nov 1830; mar. George Howe; d. 21 Apr 1897
- Daniel Russell Woodward, b. 10 Apr 1833; mar. 30 Jan 1854 Laura Davis; d. 6 Jan 1910 [see 52 Ancestors - #4]
- Stephen Adams Woodward, b. 22 Aug 1834; mar. Nancy Morrill 9 Jun 1856; d. 22 Sep 1924
- Alvin A. Woodward, b. 22 May 1836; mar Ellen M. Marden, 18 Jun 1859; d. 22 Oct 1905.
- Dorcas Catherine Woodward, b. 22 Feb 1838; mar. Edwin E. Clark, 4 July 1859; d. 10 Oct 1927
- Diane Woodward, b. 22 Sep 1839; mar., 1st, Benjamin Morrill, 1 Mar 1860; mar, 2nd, William H. Roberts, 27 Aug 1865
- Perlena Ann Woodward, b. Aug 1842; d. 8 Oct 1844
- Francis Ross Woodward, b. 9 Feb 1845; mar., 1st, Lydia Gordon; mar., 2nd, Ella E. Hilpert, 29 Mar 1886
Oliver A. Woodward, a 24 years old stone Mason was residing with Daniel S. Woodward in 1850,[8] and appeared as the oldest child (third entry) prior to Daniels's known children, Elisabeth, Hannah, Phebe, Dorcus, Stephen, Alvin, Dorcas, Frank, and Dinah. At first blush it would appear that Oliver was the older son of Daniel S. However, when we compare this census to the1840 census entry for the household of Daniel S.

There seems to be some condtradictions between the two decennial census records. For instance, if Oliver is a son of Daniel S., and his age is somewhat correct in the 1850, then why isn't he enumerated in Daniel's household in 1840. Who is the 70 to 80 year old male in Daniel's home in 1840? The first question is not easy to answer, but the second is, but indirectly. Enoch Adam (father-in-law of Daniel) was a Revolutionary Pensior [I'll save discussion of Enoch for a future blog]. Although I have little evidence to date, I expect that Oliver was son of Kimball Woodward, supposed brother of Daniel. Kimball Woodward met his death by drowning in 1845. It is not unreasonable to assume that Daniel was training his apparent nephew, Oliver, to be a stone mason.
The 1850 census indicates that Daniel S. Woodward had $ 1,200 worth of real estate. Subsequent deed work produced ten property conveyances in Merrimack County. Abstracts appear heree.

52 Ancestors: #4 Daniel R. Woodward
There are some things you don't publish until certain family members have passed on. There is no need to spoil the image of their grandfather who they considered a hero of the Civil War because we was wounded and eventually discharged prior the surrender of General Robert E. Lee to General U.S. Grant at Appomattox Court House, April 9, 1865. The truth is Daniel R. Woodward received his injuries when he fell over a stump in Camp.
Daniel's federal Civil War Invalid pension application provides a great deal of information about his enlistment.[1] We learn that
Daniel R Woodward served under Col. James Pike, Company E, 16th New Hampshire Infantry. When Daniel enlisted at Franklin, New Hampshire on 12 September 1862 for 9 months he was described as a thirty-nine year old man who stood five feet nine and on-half inches tall, had a light complexion, blue eyes, and dark hair. He was a stonecutter by trade. Daniel was mustered into service as a private, 23 October 1862 at Concord, New Hampshire. Muster rolls for the unit indicate that he was present in January and February, 1863; present, March and April 1863; and sick in hospital at New Orleans since March 6th. The muster our roll dated 20 August 1863 reports him discharged at Charity Hospital in New Orleans and he was given a certificate of disability.
While on night guard duty at Camp Parapet near Carrollton, Louisiana, Daniel sustained injuries to a knee and ankle when he fell over a stump in camp about the 25th of January 1863. He was discharged, 3 May 1863 at Charity Hospital, New Orleans. Daniel also claimed that subsequent to the fall he had suffered chronic diarrhea and rheumatism. In an affidavit dated 26 April 1881, Daniel listed of, no less than, twenty-six times that he had been incapacitated for a period of five to thirty or more days in succession when he was sick.
Daniel Russell Woodward was born 10 April 1833 in Salisbury, Merrimack County, New Hampshire,[2] son of Daniel S and Dorcas (Adams) Woodward.[3]
I've just found a copy of the History of the Sixteenth Regiment, New Hampshire Volunteers.[4] I'm looking forward to reading it. Hopefully, I'll learn how the 16th NH traveled from New Hampshire to Louisiana.
A copy of a delayed marriage record is located within Daniel's pension record. The delayed record was recorded in Concord, New Hampshire and stated that the marriage was conducted in Lowell, Massachusetts. For years I sought, to no avail, for that marriage record in Lowell (and nearby communities), and the Massachusetts state vital records. I searched every variant spelling of Woodward, but I never searched the indexes for the bride, Laura Davis until late August of 2005. I remember that day well, because while I was going over my lecture notes on the Lowell Mill Girls for a presentation later in the day at the FGS annual conference in Boston, I took a break. I think Laura was sending me a message telling me to forget Daniel and search for her. Eureka! The surname of Daniel and his father were recorded as "Woodbury" and not Woodward. I originally located the record at NewEnglandAncestors.com
Daniel Woodward and Laura Davis were married in Lowell, Massachusetts, 30 January 1854, by Baptist clergyman, Rev. Howe. Laura, a resident of Franklin, New Hampshire, was the daughter of Lewis and Nancy [Glines] Davis. [5] Family tradition indicates that Daniel and Laura were working at the mills in Lowell, Massachusetts, when they wed. This is probably so, since "operative" appears as an occupation on the Lowell marriage register.
Laura and Daniel had eight children. In an affidavit on 6 July 1896, Daniel listed the seven still living with their birth dates.[6]
- Emma Jane Woodward, born 28 September 1854.
- Frank Daniel Woodward, born 12 May 1868.
- Annie Laura Woodward, born 2 June 1865.
- Wellington Russell Woodward, born 14 December 1866.
- Grace Gertrude Woodward, born 12 august 1869.
- Agnes Mabel Woodward, born 2 May 1874.
- Florence (Flossie) Maud Woodward, born 28 June 1877, and died 21 December 1893.[7]
- Oscar Herman Woodward, born 18 January 1880.
Prior to the Civil War, Daniel was occupied as a stonecutter or marble worker,[8] a trade he learned from his father Daniel S. Woodward
Family papers contain several obituaries from unidentified newspaper clippings. I'm including images of an obit of Flossie and one for Daniel R. who died 6 January 1910.

52 Ancestors: #3 Oscar H Woodward
"I watch my vegetables very carefully, I take a can off the shelf and look at them every day," was one of my paternal grandfather's favorite sayings. The truth of the matter was that he had a great dislike for many vegetables, but my mother frequently reminded him that he needed to eat them daily.
Grandfather's passion was writing stories. He wrote them one after another and submitted them to magazines in hopes of getting one in print. I don't think that every happened. I recall his dismay whenever he received one of those polite letters indicating that the story was not a good fit for the magazine. He also enjoyed singing in the church choir and was particular proud during the two years that my father and I participate in the choir as well at the Congregational Church in Walpole, New Hampshire.
O.H. Woodward was born 18 January 1880 in Franklin, New Hampshire, son of Daniel Russell and Laura (Davis) Woodward. He married Sara Waddell on the 28th of September 1907, in Belmont, Massachusetts.[1] The ceremony was conducted by Charles U. Day a minister in Watertown. The marriage register indicates that he was working as a needle maker in Franklin, N.H., and she as a nurse.
Oscar and Sara had four children all born in Franklin, Merrimack County, New Hampshire
- Virginia Woodward, born 15 October 1908 and died 7 March 2008 at York Harbor, Maine.[2] She married George Mason Smith.
- Richard M. Woodward, born 26 May 1910 and died 13 January 2007. He married Bernice Iris Ford.
- Douglas Russell Woodward, born 4 October 1911 and died 8 March 1970 at Rye, New Hampshire. He married 1st Geraldine Hayward and 2nd Mrs. Beverly Powell.[3]
- Oscar H. Woodward, Jr., born 1 January 1915, and died 4 June 1965.
My paternal grandparents also raised Jean Collins who was listed in their home in the 1930 census as five years old until her graduation from high school marriage in the 1940s.[4]
Grandfather took part in two selective service acts, but in each case dodged military service because he was too old.
On the 25th of April 1942 he registered with the World War II Selective Service at Local Board No. 8 in Merrimack County, New Hampshire, in what is now commonly called the "Old Man's Draft. At that time he was a sixty-two year old working in the engineering department of the Boston and Maine Railroad in Concord.
When he registered with the World War I Selective Service on the 12th of September 1918, he was thirty-eight and working as an agent for the B&M Railroad at North Station in Boston.[5]
Following his retirement from the Boston & Maine, grandfather received a pension from the Railroad Retirement Board. His file[6] contains over one hundred pages. The file is considerable thicker than most of the files—didn't take long to discover the reason. Whe he retired, my grandparents were residing in a studio apartment at 11 Green Street, Concord, New Hampshire. I barely remember it, but I remember thinking it was strange. One room with a tiny kitchen county with tiny stove and sink behind roll-away doors and a Murphy bed for sleeping. Maybe they were ready to head for more open spaces. Retirement meant traveling from the home of one relative to another (I believe they gave up their little studio apartment soon after retirement)… back to the packet with the files of the Railroad Retirement Board. I'd guess that ninety-five percent of the pages consisted of letters from my grandfather to the retirement office, telling them a new address they needed to use to mail check or complaining that the check had not arrived even though he'd "given them plenty of notice." None-the-less the file provides a detail of their visits a few months hear with that child, a few months there with a niece or nephew. It will take me a while to get the chronology together, but I'm excited to have images of this wonderful file!
By the 1950s, Oscar and Sara had given up their nomad life style and moved in with their daughter and son-in-law in West Hartford, Connecticut. Aunt Virginia and Uncle George lived in a tiny four room flat on Farmington Avenue. The apartment had a small kitchen, one bedroom, a bath, and a living room and dining room that were separated by a large arch. A daybed at one end of the dinning room served as the sleeping arrangements for my grandparents. Grandmother died in Hartford in 1955 and from that time on my grandfather divided his year into segments when he lived with my aunt and uncle in the small flat and Walpole, N.H. where my family lived. While in Walpole, grandfather sometimes rented a small apartment.
Oscar H. Woodward, Sr., passed away at the Rockingham Hospital in Bellows Falls, Vermont, 25 August 1962.[7]

This is the fourth challenge of "Your Story. Brilliant!" offered as a class by Linda Sattgast of ScrappersGuide.com.
This month the focus is on "Birth and Early Years." As I have a twin brother it would be impossible to isolate my story since we were rarely apart during our youth. Peter is 5 minutes older than I and I remind him every year of how pleased I am that I'm not the oldest of four siblings—he is! Our younger brother is about 6 years young and the baby of the family is about 10 years younger than we are.

I believe that it's not wrong to look inside compressed archives, BUT
it should check the size of files inside the compressed archive
In general, you cannot check the size of compressed files without
uncompressing. For example, with a tar.gz, you have to uncompress
the whole thing.
Limiting the size you scan could also allow viruses to escape
undetected, viz:
(cat small_x86_code; \
dd if=/dev/zero bs=1k count=10k; \
cat viral_payload) | gzip -9 > file.gz
I assume that small_x86_code contains an .exe header plus code to jump
past the 10Meg of zeros.
So because you can get around scanners which limit the size of the
scan, and you can DoS scanners which do not limit the size, you might
as well not bother scanning compressed or archived files at all, except
under manual control.

Independent, Reality-Based Analysis

In the original version of this post we discussed the "Prevention Fund" and described the fund as one allocated to victims of gun violence. The fund, however, was only discussed as a possible fund for victims when it was under debate in the National Assembly. In the final version of the law the fund is allocated for the "implementation of planes, programs and projects for prevention" and not for victims of gun violence. We have changed the text below to reflect this point.
Last month President Nicolas Maduro signed into law a disarmament bill that has gone under various revisions within the National Assembly since 2010. The law signifies an important attempt by the Venezuelan government and legislature to control the flow of arms in the country. In this post we look at the evolution of the law, the conflicts that the law has produced (both between the opposition and the government and within Chavista ranks), and provide a summary of the law's main points.
Although there are no reliable figures on the number of guns in circulation in Venezuela (estimates range from one million to six million) their circulation was for the most part unregulated until last year.
Since 2010, three different commissions have been created to combat the problem. The first commission was organized within the National Assembly in January 2011. It was headed up by Freddy Bernal (PSUV National Assembly member and previous mayor of Caracas) and was dominated by PSUV deputies but also included a few opposition members such as Juan Carlos Caldera. It was referred to as the Mixed Commission (Comisión Mixta) because it had members from two different National Assembly subcommittees (Interior and Defense). The Mixed Commission's proposal suffered a number of postponements and internal differences between Diosdado Cabello, the president of the Assembly, and Freddy Bernal.
In May 2011, late-President Hugo Chávez decreed the creation of the second commission, the Presidential Disarmament Commission (CPD). The CPD was headed up by human rights activist Pablo Fernández and then Minister of Justice Tareck El Aissami and included 20 members from the government, the academy, and civil society.
Though initially the two groups worked together, there were serious differences: the CPD was dominated by civilians such as Fernández, while the National Assembly's Mixed Commission had a strong presence of former military officers, including Assembly members Rafael Gil Barrios and Pedro Carreño.

I recently heard from Heidi from Bed Crumb (cutest name!) in the UK and so I have to spread the good word in case you do not know about it already… so sweet! Heidi just launched Bed Crumb, an online shop where she sells exclusive range of home accessories and gifts, her specialty is a cozy range of cushions combining original illustrations and contemporary textile design.
It was her experience in commercial fashion and textile design which sparked her interest in following a dream — to combine her background in the industry with a desire to own a small business where she could exercise her creativity freely, without restraint. This is how Bed Crumb was born. Heidi digitally prints her illustrations onto silk and then adds both vintage and new textiles, trims and other accessories to adorn them, each one-of-a-kind, handmade in her small studio.
I absolutely love hearing stories like this because it takes a lot of guts to change the direction in which you've been sailing along, comfortably, for many years. I applaud anyone who does this, I did it and trust me coming from experience, it IS HARD WORK. You think you work hard when you work 'for the man'. Running your own business isn't 40, 50, or even a 60 hour per week dedication, it's a 24/7 dedication because even when you are not working your business and keeping it fresh and afloat is constantly occupying your mind. That is why I say it takes guts because it's not always easy to pursue your passions on paper as it is in your mind, you know how you imagine it to be. When I see people like Heidi who are new in the indie community working hard to promote their business, I cannot feel but a special affection (and admiration) for them.
Congratulations Heidi on following your dreams and all the best on your new business. Three words for you Heidi: YOU GO GIRL.
And readers, Heidi ships worldwide and she is currently looking to do wholesale so if you are a small shop owner please contact her if you like what you see here. :)

Helena Carrington is a textile designer and illustrator based in Norwich, England. Inspired by travel and culture, especially Italian; the architecture, streets, colors, and textures, she designs illustrative and photographic digitally printed interior textiles, accessories (such as pillows), photography and art/illustration pieces.
Helena uses both digital and screen printing to produce unique designs with a sense of place, whether it's through illustrative buildings or an Italian car on a pillow for example. I just love her aesthetic, it's quirky and fun, bright, unique. I can get a feeling for her personality through her work and I think she would be a really fun travel companion!
You can find Helena's work online at the new Folksy or in her Etsy shop. I really like her inspiration – her trips to Paris, Italy… How nice!

I'm always so inspired when I come across a web shop that feels special, you know like you've just stepped into someone else's personal space and you must tip toe and quietly look around so as to not make too much noise. A very special little boutique on the web that I discovered recently is such a place and it's called Tas-ka, a Dutch company based in Den Haag created by Jantien Baas and Hester Worst (they ship worldwide).
I really enjoy the large beautiful photos that welcome you as the page opens, it's quite unique I think as a lot of websites do not use such large photos… I rather like it. I think that is what we are all looking for nowadays don't you? Originality. We want to find things or places that are new to us or that do not feel like all of the other places we've seen or visited before.
What does Tas-ka offer? For one, books! They have several of the Jeu de Paume books and they even stock Lula magazine, a favorite of mine that I buy at Barnes & Noble in the states. It's expensive, but so many of the pages are frame-worthy and the paper quality is outstanding so you can use a lot of the pages as art or to pin to your inspiration board. I highly suggest checkout out Lula, it's devoted to fashion but contains gorgeous articles, swirly feminine fonts, and fantastic layouts so it stimulates lots of ideas and never fails to put me into a good mood.
In addition to books and magazines, you can also shop Tas-ka for their signature pendant light constructed entirely of paper cranes. Some are in white, others in color, all are completely affordable at 160-Euro (when you consider the amount of work involved in creating one).
You can also find vintage furniture, pillows, bedding, fabrics (by the meter designed by Tas-ka), stationery, things for kids, ceramics, etc. Completely lovely selection, I can't stop clicking around their shop. I love these 3 vintage pots for instance.
Tas-ka feels very original and I think you'll enjoy this shop so here, have a peek. Enjoy. :)

You get direct feedback on your photos from world-acclaimed, professional photographers. You can learn photography in this way from anywhere in the world.
Originally from the UK, Ive spent the past 20 years living in Sydney, Australia, working initially as a rostrum cameraman in the audio-visual business, then as freelance photographer. More recently, Ive worked (struggled) as a freelance writer, then as a full-time magazine editor for eight years. For the past six years, I have run my own small publishing business, Better Digital, producing Australias largest-selling specialist digital photo publication. (As an interesting side note, Better Digital is not affiliated with BetterPhoto.com - we simply have similar good tastes when it comes to names!)
With the launch of Better Digital, I have passionately pursued the goal of producing clear, well-illustrated publications written in "plain English". I have continued to develop this plain-speaking style in another specialist magazine devoted almost exclusively to Photoshop, called Better Photoshop Techniques. Recently I added Digital Photo ART to the list of publications. This deals more with project-based techniques for the digital enthusiast whose interests, those with a crafty bent wanting to do something more with their shots.
I have also written several books, including www.imaging, efficient photo preparation for the world wide web (Watson Guptill, ISBN: 0-8230-5855-7), co-written with Philip Andrews, Paint Shop Pro 8: a guide to creating professional images (Focal Press/Elsevier Press, ISBN: 0-240-51698-2), and recently, Paint Shop Pro 9 for Photographers, co-written with Ken McMahon, (Focal Press/Elsevier Press, ISBN: 0-240-51981-7).
When Im not out shooting, travelling, or writing for one of my publications, I teach digital photography! In fact, theres nothing I like better than showing newcomers how to fine-tune their shooting skills and how to get the best from their gear. The beauty of digital photography, of course, is that students can appreciate their efforts almost immediately, a fact that fuels greater exploration of the craft.
