Why I Love Yard Sales in Yakima + My Tips For Finding What You Need
I love yard sales because I never know what I'm going to find. I'm always looking for specific items (mainly toys for my kids, video games for me and books for my wife) but sometimes I may find a skateboard for $1 - wasn't looking for it but for one dollar I can certainly make use of it. Yard sales, thrift stores, Craigslist - all great places to save some money. I'm not cheap, I'm frugal. Here are a few of my tips I use when yard saling and a few things I need to incorporate. These may work for you and I'd love to hear any advice you may have, yourself.

Bamboo Bangle
I met a friend for drinks last week, she was wearing an adorable set of bamboo bangles by John Hardy. I can't drop $350.00 on bangles at the moment, but I may be able to splurge on this faux gold set for $14.99! They look great alone, or layered with other bracelets. (this image above isn't bamboo but this is the look of a simple bangle) |
These would be my first choice!! Available here. |
The $14.99 option! |

Emerson's room - design boards
Here is the plan for Emerson's room, the walls are painted and ready to go. I also already have some of the other elements. The concept for her room was the idea of bunnies and deer emerging into a summery garden from the "enchanted forest". Make sense? Good.
1. Scalloped window treatments with a pom-pom detail.
2. Art work via lovemaki.bigcartel {found via this is glamorous}
3. I am going to paint the dresser lemon yellow
4. Light pink paint - ben moore, mellow pink,
- the charcoal fabric is for the custom designed headboard. It will have a medium pink contrast welt.
- Kelly Wearstler - in confetti from Lee Jofa on an upholstered chair
5. I purchased this amazing bunny via Etsy from Dimdi. My sister also had an adorable deer painted for Emerson by the same artist.
6. I am going to design a custom headboard similar to this!
7. I purchased these great letter press words. Each type was designed and signed by the artist. {will provide site}. I am going to hang them above the bed, each will have a hot pink mat.
8. + 9. Bunny Pillow via Unica Home, Deer - room's mascot, via HomeGoods. I purchased this when I was pregnant, not knowing if I was having a boy or a girl.
10. Bob Collins yellow lattice will be used for a large bed pillow. {maybe a bolster - not sure yet}
11. Inspiration for an artwall above the crib - It will be a collage of deer and bunny prints by various
12. Palm leaf chandelier. I found one very similar on ebay and had it sprayed last year.
13. I want to add this David Hicks - hexagon wallpaper someplace as an accent.
14. Pink gourd lamp. I also already have a great pierced white lamp.
15. Bedding will be simple and scalloped with a ruffle bed skirt in shades of pink and white.
16. I have a fun fluffy wool shag carpet in the room it's perfect for little, bare feet.
got to run and get my kiddos!!

think pink
Sorry about the late post. I've been running lately, I feel like all I do is run, run run... I blog when I really should be sleeping. Anyway as most of my regular readers {and thanks for that :)} probably figured out my life took a crazy turn this past Fall. It's insane enough having a new born baby, never mind life changing drama. I'm moving forward in a positive direction and am starting to focus on my home again!!{which is always so much fun for me}. I was never able to wrap up my daughter's room, so that is my first order of business. I got around to painting it on Saturday. I have painted a slew of mirrors and dressers etc. but I had never painted a room before. It was a goal of mine to paint hers. I finished 90%, and plan on finishing the balance this week!! I never tire of the transformative power of paint, $50.00 and a little elbow grease is all it takes. I LOVE the color. I went with a pale pink; I know that seems so predictable, but pink it just so "well", pretty, and that is what I was going for on the walls. I previously posted my original boards for the room on my blog here. I've tweaked them a little, but the concept is still pretty much the same. {look for the new boards, with the final selections tomorrow afternoon}. Here's a bit of pale pink inspiration for you. The color I went with is called Mellow Pink {75%} by Benjamin Moore. It's the perfect warm pink. {and looks very much like Palmer Weiss daughter's walls below.} |

Dell launches Smart Grid Data Management Solution
- Solution taps electric distribution system performance data to isolate and predict outages, enabling fast response and potentially averting service interruptions
- Customized bundle includes servers, storage, networking and services specifically configured and tested with industry-leading software from OSIsoft
- Allows utilities to take full advantage of smart grid technologies to conserve vital resources and help reduce costs
ROUND ROCK, Texas–(BUSINESS WIRE)–Dell today announced the availability of a new bundled solution designed to help electric utility companies smartly manage their distribution networks, minimize and potentially avoid outages and improve service to their customers through an innovative application of smart grid technologies.
"Today's energy distribution system is more complex than ever before. For instance, homeowners are installing solar panels that can actually feed energy back to the grid, and electric vehicles are presenting new demand challenges for energy companies"
The Dell Smart Grid Data Management Solution, tested in collaboration with OSIsoft, combines high-performance computing, networking and storage to manage data and provide actionable results in real-time. Based on customer requirements and the age of the data, Dell's solution provides three tiers of storage, enabling customers to optimize performance at a low cost.
Leading electric utilities are beginning to leverage Phasor Measurement Units (PMUs) within their transmission and distribution (T&D) systems to monitor and manage the health of the T&D system. PMU measurements provide data related to the stability of the electricity network; PMU output can indicate either a current or imminent outage condition. However the benefits of these high-speed measurements (up to hundreds of measurements per second) are only realized when actionable information from the streaming data can be efficiently retained for later analysis. Dell's Smart Grid Data Management Solution, in conjunction with the OSIsoft PI System™, provides an efficient, scalable platform for this analysis.
The solution's reference architecture features Dell PowerEdge 12th-generation servers with PCI Express Flash drives, and provides data in near-real time to grid operators enabling them to quickly identify and assess the health of the distribution grid. Dell Force10 high-performance 10/40GbE network switches provide low-latency, high-bandwidth throughput to handle the data demands of the entire system, and Dell Compellent's automated tiered storage makes relevant data readily accessible while providing the flexibility and scalability to store historical grid data for compliance purposes.
Supporting the Dell Smart Grid Data Management Solution is a range of service choices that simplify the assessment, design, implementation, management and maintenance of the infrastructure. Depending on current business requirements and the level of service desired, Dell Service professionals can provide factory, onsite, remote, modular and specialized services that fit specific customer needs and budgets.
Tested with Industry-leading Software from OSIsoft
Dell has teamed with industry leader OSIsoft to test the Dell Smart Grid Data Management Solution. The OSIsoft PI System is the enterprise infrastructure for streaming data and events. The PI System captures phasor and other T&D system performance data, archives and contextualizes the data including real-time calculations and makes the data available to staff, applications and business systems.
"Smart grid technologies have the potential to revolutionize the way power is produced, delivered, used and conserved – but only if we can effectively capture, analyze and respond to the data that is generated," said Jeff Gillespey, global energy sales director for Dell. "Managing the data deluge is imperative for utility companies that want to make their operations more efficient, and Dell is committed to giving them the power to improve productivity and enhance service levels."
"Today's energy distribution system is more complex than ever before. For instance, homeowners are installing solar panels that can actually feed energy back to the grid, and electric vehicles are presenting new demand challenges for energy companies," said David Lear, executive director of sustainability at Dell. "Dell's Smart Grid Data Management Solution can help our energy customers – and their customers – be productive and environmentally sustainable. We are committed to putting our technology and expertise to work where it can do the most good for people and the planet."
"In the utilities market, deriving knowledge from grid data confers a competitive advantage but can stress computing systems," said Bernard Morneau, chief strategy officer at OSIsoft. "We are very pleased to see Dell taking up this challenge and joining us in this journey to help OSIsoft customers address their growing data management requirements. We will be looking to expand this collaboration to other industries and big data scenarios."

Rated 5 out of 5Â by 4
Rated 5 out of 5Â by reportingmom Perfect touch!
Used the small ones with the cellophane window for Christmas treats. Especially caramel corn looked adorable in them. Received many comments on how cute the boxes were. I used the large ones to hold a couple different treats, which were packaged in plain cellophane snack bags, also really cute. The extra care in presentation using these was a hit. They come flat and pop up very easily,.

I exaggerate, but these small light cardboard containers are exactly what I needed for my hand-designed bookplates. No frills and easy to tailor to my needs.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by kelcatmom Terrific for baked goods!
We're using these to create a professional presentation for baked goods that my husband takes along when he meets clients in their homes. The varied designs allow us to choose styles that fits clients' personalities and the sturdy construction let us deliver a nice-looking package even after packing & transportation (& sometimes well-intentioned handling by our young children.) Just line with some parchment or waxed paper and you're good to go.
I'll be using a lot of these at Christmas!

Rated 5 out of 5Â by Emel Great boxes!
I am a high school teacher and a club sponsor. I purchased these boxes for my club members that were going out of town to a leadership conference. I used the boxes to pack snacks for each student and a pencil box with writing utensils. The boxes worked well and were very sturdy. They were easy to assemble and I was able to fit a sufficient amount of items in the box. These boxes are great.

Civility. Lets find some, shall we?
If a team can cut a player before a contract is up, why is it so wrong for a player to want more money before a contact is up? This is how the NFL works. Don't take it personal. Osi never had one teammate or the head coach say a bad word about him. Comparing him to Shockey is an insult. Shockey caused problems in the huddle and for the whole team.
You clearly just don't get it. Where did I, or anyone else for that matter complain about the man trying to get paid? We care that he is a malcontent and tried to screw the team over by going in for unnecessary knee surgery two years ago, which was more of an effort to screw the organization and the team than Shockey ever put forth.
Because it's stated in the contract that way. It's a general misconception that owners don't honor contracts because they can cut a player. Osi was wrong about his contract because he WILLINGLY signed it with that language in it and was paid a boat load of money UP FRONT, making him the highest paid player at his position at that time. He has the right to WANT to get paid more,,,,but I have the right to not like the way he went about it. He threatened to hold out...publicly called Reese a liar....had a surprise surgery just before the season started because he didn't get his way and missed several games. Not to mention his decreased level of play WHILE demanding more money.
The Shockey comparison is TOTALLY valid as it is merely an example of how I am a Giants fan before I am a player fan. They both behaved in a manor I don't like. Just because it wasn't the SAME behavior doesn't mean the point isn't made.
What I take personally in this conversation is that you think your the more mature poster because you choose to ignore Osi's behavior and that it isn't a discussion worth having. You don't get to decide that for anyone else. If it isn't worth having to you....stay out of it.

It's looks great to me and will be a super reference for me.
I hereby submit this to my fellow Schradians for educational purposes, discussion, and critique
Do the font types look correct?
The bottom 3 look like they the only ones with seriffed fonts?
In theory the COPE USA ones are worth more?
SUPPLY and demand?
Or, where they of inferior quality offsetting the added value from being scarce??
What is the Holy Grail for the COPE Schrades?
It's looks great to me and will be a super reference for me.
Very nice,looks great. I'm not to sure about the Schrade NY USA 8OT though,i thought that stamp was used around 83 or 84, any other input?
At the request of Grey Menace, please excuse me being quite anal, while I add input about the 1973 to 2004 SCHRADE stamps:
1973 to 2004 is a pretty broad time frame and most would like to narrow down the age of the knife some.
Let me present some examples of Old Timer tang stamps within the 1973 to 2004 years. In each of these examples, the first stamp shown is the 1973 Stamp that followed Schrade Walden or when the pattern was introduced (194OT), and the second stamp shown is the one used when the pattern ended:
Example 1: 34OT
3 Line Stamp with NY USA on line 2, and pattern on 3rd line
Typical 2 Line Stamp with pattern on 2nd Line
In the case of the 34OT, Schrade did not issue the knife in a 3 line version without NY in the second line.
Example 2: 194OT
3 Line Stamp, but no NY on 2nd Line
Typical 2 Line Stamp with pattern on 2nd Line
In the case of the 194Ot, Schrade did not issue the knife with a NY USA stamp.
Example 3: 8OT
2 Line Stamp, NY on 2nd line (pattern number is on back of tang, in the style of the Schrade Walden versions)
Typical 2 Line Stamp with pattern on 2nd Line
In the case of the 8OT, neither matches the one in the original graphic, and there well could have been a Schrade 8OT with a NY USA 2nd line, and the 8OT on the 3rd line, but I've not seen one for sure.
As another example, as far as I know, the 77OT came out in 1976, and it had the typical 2 Line Stamp during the entire production years, never utilizing NY or a 3 Line Stamp.
A couple more examples of Uncle Henry knives
Example 5: 897UH
This version was a 4 Line Stamp, prior to SCHRADE+
The typical 2 Line Stamp.
Example 6: 885UH
A 3 Line Stamp, no mention of STAINLESS or a +, but it is not Carbon
The typical 2 Line Stamp.
In each case, the first stamp is these examples came from a knife that was shipped in a Brown Two Piece Box with a felt covered blue (Old Timer) or red (Uncle Henry) insert.
The Open Stock knives (for example, jigged delrin and some yellow handled knives) followed the same stamping trend. I have numerous patterns of Open Stock Schrades with these same examples, depending on the pattern. Most of the Open Stock knives came over from Schrade Walden, so most of them are found with NY USA in the second line of the stamp, and some with the pattern stamped on the pile side.
In summary, and in my general observations, with the exception of SFO editions and LTD's, with post 1973 Schrades, the NY USA and 3 Line Stamps followed the Schrade Walden years, and were present in knives that spanned both era's, plus a few new patterns after 1973. I do not know when any particular pattern may have switched to the final version.
I would appreciate it if anyone has a SCHRADE Old Timer or Uncle Henry with a 3 Line Stamp, with or without NY if you would add to this list.
8OT (NY - pattern on back)
Enough on stamps for now, if you made it to the end of this obsessive post.

Thanks for the info very informative.I do have aSchrade over N.Y U.S.A over 8OT, so they are out there. The smooth red bone series of 1985 also has that same tang stamp.
Aha! It does exist.
Does your SCHRADE / NY USA / 8OT have the match strike pull?
Thawk, I have a full stop after Schrade+......and...and...shucks gee whillickers it is only a piece of fly crapp mate! :-}
P.S. Seriously it is really interesting mate. Hoo Roo
Yes ,.Thawk it does have the match striker. the smooth red bone series does not.I also have a yellow handled 8OT with 3 lines and smooth striker, just to complicate things even more ,ha ha ., happy collecting.
Gotta Schrade over N.Y U.S.A over stainless over897 u h.
I feel your pain. About the only way I know of to make any sense of stamp chronology is to concentrate on one pattern at a time, buying NIB examples and using the associated box and papers to roughly date them through the names and logos, other knife patterns shown on the inserts. And collect every clear picture of the ones that get away. It takes a pretty large sampling to establish a chronology, much less associated benchmarks for dates. Don't ask how many 152OT's I own. But I can now tell roughly when one was made from the stamps.
Trent Rock. I have an UH885 Stockman that the tang stamp is:
I note on your chart a similiar one for 1946-1973, except the NY/Stainless are reversed on your chart. Does this have an significance? The serial number of mine is 07069, does that mean it was made in July 69? Lastly, did Randall Knives ever sell Uncle Henry's? I ask as I think I remember buying it from Randall, my logic was if Randall sells it, it must be a good knife. Thanks, John
You asked "did Randall Knives ever sell Uncle Henry's?" Yes, from 1971 into sometime in the mid to late 1980's (they were listed in the 27th catalog printing of mid 1984, but not in the 28th catalog printing of late 1988)...hope that helps
Shel Wickersham
Always looking for older Randall Made Knives...
MP, thanks that does help. I went back to Vietnam in Jan 71 for my 4th tour. I was out at a Border Ranger Camp, no place to spend my money so I bought knives by mail. I was pretty sure I had bought that 885 from Randall, thanks for helping my memory along. John
I have 2 8ot,s with the 3 line stamp and without striker nail pull
I have 3 Schrade made "Old Times" made about 1970 for Belnap Hardware.
All 3 knives are "Schrade 8OTs with the Matchstrike pull" the tang stamp is:
U.S.A. On the overside it is stamped. 935.

I have a tang stamp with
There is no model number. It sort of looks like wood, but I assume it's some kind of bone - just pale. Any idea when they started inscribing the model numbers? I know it's 1947 or after, so I'm trying to get an upper cap.
What does the knife look like? A picture would be great. They started putting the number on the back tang around 1950, but they also added the U.S.A. to the stamping around the same time, but I've seen Uncle Henry 897UH knives stamped just like yours. They started making them in 1967.

Hi I am new to this forum & am enjoying reading all about these stamps. I have a three blade 899 that is double-stamped in a very odd way. The first stamp seems to be
upside down and then they stamped over it in the upright position. So I have U.S.A. stamped upside down and backwards on top, and stamped right on bottom. Is there
any demand for an item such as this?
Thanks for your response.

Will Smith has dismissed reports suggesting he and wife Jada Pinkett Smith are on the verge of splitting up, insisting their marriage is "intact".
U.S. publication In Touch Weekly first reported the couple had separated after 13 years of marriage on Tuesday morning but representatives for the Smiths and Will's son Trey have since addressed the story, insisting the pair is still together.
Trey took to Twitter.com to play down the story, writing, "Will and Jada getting a DIVORCE ..NOT TRUE AT ALL!!"
And Smith himself has now issued a statement through his rep.
He writes, "Although we are reluctant to respond to these types of press reports, the rumors circulating about our relationship are completely false. We are still together, and our marriage is intact."

No fees. No deposit.
Welcome to HI-Mont-Tremblant, a cosy little hostel located in the heart of the Laurentians and close to the Tremblant Ski Resort. Swing by to get away from the big city, experience the Canadian outdoors or to just relax by a campfire.
It's undeniable, with its carpeted floors and wooden walls, the HI-Mont-Tremblant hostel feels as if you've just walked in somebody's chalet. The staff and the other travellers will become part of your extended family. You may even be tempted to walk around in your PJs.
Right behind the hostel, you'll find Lac Moore. Borrow a canoe, go swimming or just laze on the dock all day. Isn't this what life is all about?
A day outside the city wouldn't be the same without an evening spent by the fire, talking nonsense and singing guilty pleasures. Bonfires and BBQs are organized regularly.
Winter looks fabulous at Tremblant! Enjoy a day outside by renting snowshoes at the front desk to explor the surrounding areas.
The hostel is located in the old Mont-Tremblant village and 5 min by car to the Tremblant Resort. There is also a bus that stops rights in front of the hostel and that can take you there. Once you're at the resort, possibilities are endless: skiing, hiking, tubing, shopping, eating, people-watching...name it, they've got it!
Get ready for a good dose of fresh air and adrenaline because the region's got it all: hiking at gorgeous Parc National du Mont-Tremblant, canoeing on the Diable river, swimming, rock climbing at the Via Ferrata, mountain biking on the area's numerous trails and much more.

got a problem with the guild im in we just got the roles we need filled so we can raid after we killed guards ppl stopped showing bar the usual 6 2 tank 2 healers 2 dps
LFR isn't raiding, at least not the way raiding has been understood in wow historically. LFR is missing all the things that define raiding (at least to me), which are long lasting and committed groups (i.e., guilds), common objectives over an extended period of time, good management, leadership and structure, etc. etc. LFR is basically solo content that happens to take place in a random group.
It all depends on what you call tricks. If you lure people in under false pretenses, it clearly wont work at all. But if tricks means you make them happy to raid, its good.
I see a lot of responses that seem to assume everyone has a disposition to raid, or not - and that this is a constant given. Reality to me is that this is not the case at all. Some like hardcore raiding, minmaxing every detail. Some like a casual stroll. Some need to be shown that they can trust the raidgroup to deliver (if I pass now for this raidspot/loot, I get it next another time).
I have no clue how atmosphere is in other raids. I have been in a very strong 25 men raid community that still is going strong, and now am part of our own 10 men guild initiative. Both take care to have fun and have a pleasurable atmosphere, where the progression is as much motivating as the atmosphere itself - teamwork, which motivates people all over the world to play all sorts of sports. But I also have seen glimpses of other raidgroups, where atmosphere was much more harsh, favoritism happened and other aspects that I dislike. Were I part of such a group, my motivation would be much less.
Also, part of good raiding is to enjoy the cycle of progressive improvement, where a wipe is ok as long as it brought more insight and experience. I note a lot of people in LFR who dont get that concept; new raiders need to be educated to get what raiding is about and why that is fun.
So, if the trick is 'join us, we can be trusted for a fun and rewarding evening' it is fine as long as you work to deliver..
Do you not see what you're doing here is posting your experience and opinion while telling other people their experience and opinion is invalid?
I thoroughly believe that everything you're saying about your server is true, but there are plenty examples of where it's different.
My guild is getting stronger by the tier, we have more and more applicants by the week. There's plenty of guilds out there that show the raiding game is still very attractive. You might feel it's not and I respect that, all I ask is the same in return.
Did you not see what I wrote? I explicitly stated this is my experience from my server (which you can see is not unique if you look at other medium/low population servers on wowprogress etc.). I further explicitly stated that the experience of someone on a high population realm is going to be completely different, I even explained why it is that on some servers things appear to be "getting stronger" at the moment.

The 10 Best Concerts in New York This Weekend, 6/6/14
OutKast's next stop on their summer festival tour is Governors Ball, this Friday
For more shows throughout the weekend, check out our New York Concert Calendar, which we update daily.
Friday, 6/6:
Governors Ball Randall's Island Park Friday through Sunday, 11:00 a.m. daily, $100-$230 What could possibly draw a crowd to this year's Governors Ball after the rainy, muddy mess that was last year's fest? Maybe it's masochism, but most likely it's the lineup, which is arguably one of the best this season. Featuring headliners OutKast, Jack White, festival darlings Vampire Weekend, and local heroes The Strokes, the shortlist doesn't sound too diverse, but read deeper and you'll find an array of excellent up-and-comers performing alongside festival vets over the course of the hopefully sunny weekend. We're talking Grimes, Janelle Monáe, Lucius, La Roux, Tyler, the Creator, Skrillex, and Interpol, among others. Grab your cutest waterproof poncho and your sturdiest pair of boots, because even a little rain won't stop this three-day party. -- By Brittany Spanos
Christian McBride & Brad Mehldau Blue Note Friday through Sunday, 8:00 p.m. & 10:30 p.m. daily, $35-$55 The Blue Note Jazz Festival continues a tradition of unlikely collaborations with a series of duo performances by bassist Christian McBride and pianist Brad Mehldau, the latter replacing Andre Previn at the last minute. McBride has worked with Sting, Bruce Hornsby, and Renee Fleming; Previn has re-worked a number of classic pop songs ranging from Cole Porter to Radiohead within a career as an excellent bandleader. Outside of his rigorous touring schedule, McBride serves as the associate artistic director of the National Jazz Museum in Harlem while Mehldau has been active in both his trio and an experimental duo with drummer Mark Guiliana. -- By Aidan Levy

Leslie Uggams 54 Below Friday, 8:30 p.m.; Saturday, 8:00 p.m., $40-$50 It's been quite a while since the Mitch Miller days, but she still has the ingenuous glow. Only now it's tempered by show-biz sophistication. She has a huge repertoire from which to draw, but it would be great if she sings at least one or two tunes from the Jule Styne-Betty Comden-Adolph Green Hallelujah, Baby! for which she won a Tony. She's also shown up as an August Wilson player but probably won't do anything from that canon. -- By David Finkle
Salt-n-Pepa Highline Ballroom 8pm, $45-$75 Salt-n-Pepa are here! The iconic hip-hop trio, responsible for some of the genre's catchiest and most karaoke-able hits like "Push It," "Let's Talk About Sex," and "Whatta Man," are still as thrilling as ever. Though it's been 17 years since they released an album together, the hot, cool, and vicious ladies have been busy, together and apart, most notably in the realm of reality television. Pepa in particular has become a regular after a stint on The Surreal Life and her own show, Let's Talk About Pep. Of course, Pep couldn't take on this new career venture without her partner in crime, and co-starred with Salt in a show chronicling their reunion a few years back. Salt, Pep, and DJ Spinderella are still performing and still empowering hip-hop fans around the world. -- By Brittany Spanos
Angel Haze plays a free show at House of Vans this Saturday
Saturday, 6/7:
Angel Haze + The Death Set + Bad Rabbits House of Vans 7:00 p.m., free w/ RSVP The fiery, feminist raps of Angel Haze have won her support both from social and political rights activists and those who ascribe to the stricter confines of "real hip-hop." Her beginnings as a poet equipped Angel to rap with a personal, poignant power that is chilling to watch live. She's still one of New York's most talented emerging MCs who will pull no punches. -- By Caitlin White
Danny Tenaglia Output 10:00 p.m., $20 When a DJ is billed as playing an "extended set" in America, it usually just means they're allotted the standard playing time given in Europe and other countries. In any case, such a tag applied to Danny Tenaglia is not to be taken lightly. The legendary resident of Vinyl would plow through 10-14 hour sets at his famed "Be Yourself" night in the early 2000s, and that marathon journey is revived tonight at Output with support in the Panther Room by techno maven Silent Servant and Chicago DJ the Black Madonna. -- By Aaron Gonsher
Soul Rebels + Jon Cleary & the Absolute Monster Gentlemen + Lost Bayou Ramblers Prospect Park Bandshell 7:00 p.m., free Second line in the aisles to a lineup about as authentically New Orleans as it gets. The hip-hop-inflected eight-piece Soul Rebels are arguably the most dynamically au courant of the city's many fine brass bands. Jon Cleary plays traditional New Orleans piano like a master and sings in a Dr. John growl while the Lost Bayou Ramblers oscillate between vintage two-steps, waltzes, and blues and Cajun swing from the 1930s and '40s. -- By Richard Gehr
Earlwolf (Tyler, the Creator + Earl Sweatshirt) Irving Plaza 11:30 p.m., $35 Earlwolf the album may not be happening, but the duo of Tyler, the Creator and Earl Sweatshirt from hip-hop collective Odd Future spit their rhymes at Irving Plaza tonight as part of the Governors Ball afterparties. This may be your only chance to see their single, "Orange Juice," performed live onstage -- of the project, Tyler said in an online forum, "I'm not in the mind frame to do a whole album of that sh**. I don't want to do it. maybe one day when I don't want to make clothing and furniture and gay-ass fruity music about lakes and sh**." Odd Future are known for their unhinged stage antics, so don't miss this one. -- By Harley Oliver Brown
Damon Albarn plays a Gov Ball after party at Irving Plaza late on Sunday
Courtesy of WBR Press // Credit: Linda Brown Lee
Sunday, 6/8:
Damon Albarn Irving Plaza 9:30 p.m., $45 The hard-rock whiplash of "Song #2" and "Stylo" aside, a melancholy, particularly English wistfulness has always been Damon Albarn's wheelhouse. So it's starting that reviews of Everyday Robots uniformly fault the Blur/Gorillaz auteur for essentially being himself on his debut solo album, a collection of moody pastiche blues that's nobody's ideal of party-starting pop. Live or on wax, these are low-impact, wind-down grooves best experienced with a whiskey and water in hand. -- By Raymond Cummings
Billy Hart Quartet Village Vanguard Friday through Sunday, 8:30 p.m. & 10:30 p.m. daily, $25 As the veteran drummer's foursome develops, the grace they broker becomes more essential to its personality. Can't say if it's the lithe horn lines of Mark Turner or the well-chosen asides of pianist Ethan Iverson, but the music on the newish One Is The Other has the kind of sweep that connects each passage to the next - it almost seems like one long piece. Of course Hart's mastery at keeping everything fluid has a lot to do with it. On stage they're a bit more tactile - and that physicality can be revelatory. Don't miss. -- By Jim Macnie

Fun with Felt Food
Hi again, Irene from designstiles today.
My husband sent me an email yesterday linking to this site with toys he suggested we buy for our son. Quickly, I responded with a yes. And then I became enamored as I searched for more options of this type toy and came to notice it might be a thing. A thing perhaps people are into, maybe even adults more than kids.
It's felt food! Food made of felt to resemble exactly real food. Some of the food I found was so accurate and specific, I was honestly pretty impressed. It's like the cutest thing since baby penguins.
market :: fruit set :: lobster set :: lunch set :: cotton candy set
The thought of a kid pretend eating lobster sort of cracks me up.
It was only appropriate I find a pretend market for all this food to come from.
Let your kids have all they cotton candy they wish.
Happy Wednesday!

Mini Piccolini: Baking as Sensory Play
Sensory play is so important for little children and baking is a great way to get started.
Little A spends quite a bit of time with me in the kitchen. Usually he plays on the floor while I prepare our meals, but if he is having trouble entertaining himself, I often pull up a high chair to the counter where I am working, and let him get involved (the antilop chair is better for this than the Tripp Trapp since it's not as wide at the base and therefore gets Alec closer to the counter). We talk about what we are making and I narrate as I chop and stir. When I can, I let Alec smell and taste small pieces of food as I am cooking. I also try to do things down low in front of him so he can see what I am stirring etc.
The other day while baking oat cakes, I actually just brought all the dry ingredients down with me onto the floor so that Alec could really be involved. First I counted as I measured out the oats and put them in the bowl. He "helped" and we ended up with some oats on the floor, but so what? Then we measured out cinnamon and cardamom and added them to the bowl, stirred and stopped to smell the spices.
Then I put Alec in his high chair at the table and got him set up with his own bowl and spoon to stir with. I used the Unbelievabowl so he could get into stirring without the whole thing flying off the table. I didn't bother with a smock or anything as we weren't going to be using anything that wouldn't wash off easily. While I continued with my baking at the table, I measured up some oats for Alec to work with in his bowl. He stirred and "chopped" and scooped and was completely fascinated. He pressed and felt the oats between his fingers and of course tasted some as well.
After awhile I added first just a few drops of water and let him stir to see what happened to the oats and how they changed consistency. Then I added more water so that Alec had a real "batter" to work with. He did a lot more stirring and scooping and mushing around with his fingers. And tasting.
Alec actually kept himself so busy with this activity that I had time to finish baking and get a head start on that evening's dinner before he ever got tired of it.
There is so much sensory exploration you can do in the kitchen using just the simplest ingredients and utensils. It is a great way to start thinking and talking about our senses with our little ones!

For Your Wee Ones: A Place to Play
Every little one needs a place to play. Here are a few fun takes on the traditional fort:
I love the idea of using a table or doorway as a base for a fort – great for OCD parents who don't like to have their furniture pushed all over the place too 😉
Some of these would be fun and easy DIY projects, like the fort kit, or puppet theatre. And of course you could always go the traditional route and drape a bunch of sheets over a few pieces of furniture or bit of twine.
Even a cozy corner or pillow-filled hatchback can suffice for a fort. Or if you're really ambitious, you could create a pillow palace like Miss James.
What's your favorite type of fort?

Cuomo today announced that the Hudson Valley Economic Development Corporation (HVEDC), in partnership with Taste NY, held its first regional Beer, Wine & Spirits Summit at the Culinary Institute of America to support the regional beverage industry and promote locally-produced beer, wine, cider and spirits sales and tourism. The event drew more than 200 industry representatives from throughout Hudson Valley. The HVEDCs Food & Beverage Alliance organized a roundtable discussion focusing on the challenges and growth opportunities available in the industry specific to the Hudson Valley region following Governor Cuomos statewide summit held last October.
New Yorks wine, beer, and spirits industry is taking off, and events like this summit are key to continuing that progress, Governor Cuomo said. Just like the statewide Wine, Beer, and Spirits Summit that we held last year, todays event brought together producers, community leaders, and economic development officials from throughout the Hudson Valley to identify ways to continue the growth of this important sector. Along with our initiatives like Taste NY, these efforts will help further the momentum in the industry and show that New Yorks culinary products are some of the best in the world.
State officials, economic development leaders and industry representatives in attendance provided information on the Taste NY initiative, expanding beverage trails, the states new One-Stop Shop and an update on state liquor regulations as well as the local wine industry.
The Hudson Valley Economic Development Corporation and its Hudson Valley Food & Beverage Alliance want to applaud the state for creating the new promotional Taste NY initiative, said Laurence P. Gottlieb, president and CEO of Hudson Valley Economic Development Corporation. Taste NY will be an incredible resource for our Food & Beverage Alliance members and everyone working in our regions food and beverage industry who will have the ability to show off the excellent items we produce.
The Hudson Valley Economic Development Corporations Food & Beverage Alliance hosted the summit to discuss ways to grow the already prosperous beverage industry into an even greater sector for the Hudson Valley. The event addressed a variety of topics, including exploring business-to-business needs, industry policies at the state and federal levels, workforce training and education initiatives including funding opportunities, access to capital through loan and grant programs, and networking.
Thanks to the Governors leadership, and events like the States Wine, Beer and Spirits Summit, the beverage industry has seen a tremendous boost across the State, said Empire State Development President, CEO & Commissioner Kenneth Adams. New York State, through the Taste NY initiative, is pleased to co-host local events, such as the HVEDC Beer, Wine & Spirits Summit, to continue this momentum, and explore ways to grow the sector and promote the diversity of the Hudson Valleys beverage companies.
New Yorks craft manufacturers, often small family-owned businesses, have experienced an explosion of growth over the past three years under the Governors leadership, said State Liquor Authority Chairman Dennis Rosen. We are excited to participate in todays summit to further assist these businesses as they continue to create jobs and environmentally friendly economic development across New York State.
As New Yorks beverage industry continues to grow, New York agriculture grows with it, said Acting State Agriculture Commissioner James B. Bays. This Summit will take participants on a journey from where we were, where we are now under Governor Cuomos leadership, and where were headed. Weve done a lot over the past three years and the future looks very bright for this rapidly growing industry.
Since taking office, Governor Cuomo has worked to further support and develop the beverage industry, which is a major driver of job creation and economic development in communities across the state. In particular, under the Governors leadership, Upstate farms and agribusinesses have become key contributors in the industrys growth. In addition to hosting the States first ever Wine, Beer and Spirits Summit in October 2012, where he announced plans for a new marketing campaign to promote New York-produced wine, beer, cider and spirits sales and tourism, as well as a series of regulatory reforms that will significantly reduce business costs for beverage producers, the Governor has introduced several new initiatives such as Taste NY to help improve the marketing of New York State products. The Governors innovative policy changes, including New Yorks Farm Brewery license and recently passed Farm Cideries bill, are also helping to grow and expand this critical industry in New York State.
New York is now home to nearly 520 wineries, breweries, distilleries, and cideries. Producers account for more than $22 billion in annual total economic impact in the state and support tens of thousands of jobs statewide. The state ranks third in the nation in wine and grape production, has the second-most distilleries, and three of the top-producing 20 brewers in the United States are located in New York.

I read that news. Apparently clg.eu got a great offer they couldn't refuse. Now people are speculating who they'll play for. Curse could be one possibility since they have a gaming house in europe, yet don't have a real eu team anymore. EG, mTw and NaVi are other possibilities.

I think I finally got Sejuani down. She has a pretty harsh first clear, so getting Greed and Biscuiteer is a must so that you have high health. As such, I go...
Smite/Flash 0/9/21 Veteran's Scars, Bladed Armor, Wanderer, Mastermind, Greed, Biscuiteer, and Nimble very important Armor seals Armor marks (I don't start machete so AS is meh) MR/lvl glyphs Gp10 quints (MS quints very good alternative if you don't think it's going long) -W start. Get Q next if the enemy jungler can counterjungle (or if you start at red), W if not. Lvl 3 get all three skills at rank 1 -Max W, get E to rank 3 (for better ganks during laning phase), then max Q because Q gets lowered cooldowns, as getting your second Q online is paramount in later teamfights because you don't have a defense steroid. As such, you have to rely on moblity. Regular route: wolves, blue, red gank -BUT if you think you're gonna get counterjungled, then you can start wraiths/red/blue... at the cost of your mid laner getting their blue later than their lane opponent Core cloth +6 philo stone and boots (whichever one you can afford in first back, then the other later) warmog's armor merc treads Later items Aegis (upgrade to bulwark if against double ap) Frozen heart Liandry's Torment Revery Why not Machete first? Because of the lack of def steroids, you're sacrifing around 5s clear time for around 150hp. Which with Sejuani's poor sustain especially at first clear, is a tradeoff that's not worth it. Not to mention, cloth armor builds into many different useful items, while machete upgrades aren't very gold cost effective. Why Warmog's Armor first? Because Sejuani's W scales with her max HP, and above all she needs 'selfish survivability' before 'team survivability' (aka defensive aura items) due to lack of def steroids. And the choice between Sunfire Cape and Warmog's is very clear, as 45 armor nowadays is nothing due to BC + ArPen combo of the top and/or even mid laner. Aegis usually comes next as most mid laners tend to build Liandry's if they see you rush a Warmog's, so the extra MR really helps. Frozen Heart mainly for cooldowns, and that AS slow is on even if the enemy ADC chooses to ignore you. Liandry's Torment is there as your go to offensive item due to W being close to permanently on with full CDR, and so 10% current hp as magic damage per second basically turns Sej into a mini-Amumu.

2) I don't use Warmong until very late game. People claim it scale with Sejuani W, but that is a whole 100 dmg over the course of 5 seconds. Sunfire is 40 all the time, plus the extra armor is nothing to sneeze at either. Think of it this way, just because people run BC and Arpen, does not mean all armors means nothing. Otherwise their basic hits would do PURE damage as it is. Smite/Ghost is my build. Ghost is great for chasing people down and slowing them for the carry to finish. Flash is not useful with her at all, especially since her Q can be used to escape. I also go 9/21/0 since I don't find biscuit to be useful at all. My build would be Machete + 5 pot, upgrade Machete to that HP/mana item I can't think of off the top of my head, SHOES immediately because her speed is terrible. Then estimate my gold situation. If I am doing well with a few ganks already, go Sunfire cape. Otherwise, spirit of Golem 1st. Then a sightstone if I am feeling generous (or we have a lazy support). Ladriny's torment next (the DPS increase is godly) Finish Spirit of Golem if it got left off. Finally Warmong if necessary. Sell sightstone, get either Trollglass or Iceborn fist. |

How do you guys deal with the instant lock and calling system of normal games? I usually fill in for whatever role that is left but it has still been screwing over a couple of my games lately. Considering how little I play, it means significantly. Do you dodge until there is no conflict or something?
Edit: Why do we still have the instant lock option anyway? It never saves any time. Edit2: Apparently NA forum thinks that removing instant lock will not stop jerks from being jerks. I guess this is true.

Since it's usually the carries that get insta-locked...get another carry and run a super-aggressive poke team! ...or fill in the missing roles and report whoever locked uncalled, IIRC the queue logs are also looked into now, in order to prevent forced dodging.

Normal draft is dead for me. 40 minutes queue is not something I'd like to do.
It's funny that people are instant-lock support in Taiwan server, and next is jungler, since they care about how to win the most. The down side is that it doesn't look like they are having fun while playing.

How amusing because it's top or mid or adc that people bitch about the most on NA. I only play support or jungle now. For a combination of not trusting other players because a quick lolking.net check shows how many of them are lying, how many people suck at jungle support, because I want to win, but most of all, those are the roles I'm good at and I won't play a role I will lose the game in.
The reality is you have to be somewhat thick-skinned to survive in this game. You will find too many scumbags, trolls, liar and emos in any game and at any elo. You need to know how to figure out who's lying (lolking.net is your friend big time here), who's trolling and whether your team wants to win or not. The majority of matches are already won or lost at champ select. If you know someone took a role they will utterly fail at, or if people wouldn't stop pitching and intentionally double picked a role or a terrible team composition, you need to have the balls to dodge. There is no point playing with scum or in a match you know you can't win. Know when to walk away, keep yourself intact and hope the next time you queue that you get grouped with people that do want to play properly.

The official OGN site schedules the semi final at 06:30 EST (GMT-5) but on Esportsuniverse they state 9:30 GMT which makes no sense.
