What do you collect and why?
Wow, great question Ethan. I collect old lamps and epergnes. I have also been accused of collecting shoes, but that's another story :-)
Don't ask me why, but I like collecting little porcelain ladies. Some of them are made to be bells and some aren't. They are so pretty and have so many delicate features!
For awhle I collected antique woman's accessories and sold them on Ebay. I would go to estate sales and find the most beautiful hats, hankies, gloves, brushes, mirrors, hat pins and more.
For me it fossil and item dug up with the metal detector. Little bits of history and works of art in their own right.
books..any kind of books that i'm interested to read.
I collect Coca~Cola memorabilia. I have been collecting since I was about 5 years old when my aunt gave me my first antique Coke bottle. Since then, I have collected thousands of items from vintage vending machines to antique ads from old TIME magazines. 99% of the items that I have are authentic and have all been appraised. I keep it as a 'all else fails' money source, yet enjoy it thoroughly.
I have always loved the advertising schemes that Coke used in their campaigns which I believe is what got me collecting in the first place.
I don't know why but I've always had a obsession with bottle caps. I love making them into jewlery.

Gammy's biological parents have NO claim on him under Thai law... despite saying they want their Down syndrome son they had through surrogate back
- According to Thai surrogacy laws, a child's legal mother is the birth mother
- Gammy was born a Thai citizen and Australian parents have no legal claim
- People becoming parents through surrogacy cannot take custody of a child unless the birth mother allows them to adopt the child
- 'Parents' of Gammy and twin Sister Pipah say 'we want our son back'
- Gammy's birth mother says David and Wendy Farnell are 'dreaming' if they think they can take Gammy back to Australia
- Thailand has proposed changes to its surrogacy laws in response to the International surrogacy scandal
According to Thai surrogacy laws, baby Gammy's biological parents have no claim to their son, and Gammy's surrogate mother can not be forced to give up custody.
This comes after the couple claimed, 'we want to get our son back' during an interview with 60 Minutes, despite allegations they abandoned their son after they learned he had Down's syndrome.
However, Thai civil law states that the birth mother, 21-year-old Pattharamon Janbua, is Gammy's legal mother and that Gammy and his twin sister Pipah were both born Thai citizens.
A person becoming a parent through Thai surrogacy cannot get custody of the child until the birth mother relinquishes her parental rights to child by allowing the child to be adopted.
Accordingly, the Farnells have no legal parental rights and no automatic claim over either child.
Scroll down for video
Thai surrogate mother Pattaramon Chanbua, 21, is the legal mother of baby Gammy according to Thai surrogacy laws, meaning his Australian biological parents have no parental rights over Gammy, nor over Gammy's twin sister, Pipah.
The couple insisted that they will return to Thailand to bring Gammy to Australia, explaining 'we miss our little boy.'
The story of baby Gammy has caused a media storm and public outrage, after it was revealed that the seven-month-old baby was rejected by his Australian parents after they discovered that he is handicapped.
The couple, the Farnells, took Gammy's twin sister, Pipah back to their home in Western Australia and have spoken publicly for the first time.
In the interview on Sunday night, Mr Farnell claimed that Ms Janbua threatened to contact the authorities and keep both children, which gave the Farnells no choice but to flee with their baby girl.
'(Ms Janbua) said that if we tried to take our little boy, she's going to get the police and she's going to try and take our little girl and she's going to keep both of the babies," he said.
Wendy (left) and David (right) Farnell, the couple who turned to a Thai surrogate to try and conceive, are pictured with their daughter, Pipah. Under Thai law, they have no claim to Pipah, nor to her twin brother Gammy, unless the birth mother chooses to give the child up for adoption.
Ms Janbua agreed that she exercised her rights under Thai law to refuse giving Gammy to the Australian couple.
'I did not allow Gammy to go back with them, that's the truth,' Ms Janbua told The Associated Press on Sunday, which conflicts with her earlier accusation that the couple had abandoned the baby boy.
'It is because they would have taken Gammy back and put him in an institute.'
The Farnells only chance of taking custody of Gammy is if Ms Janbua agrees to give up the baby for adoption.
Comments from the babies' surrogate mother, Ms Janbua, indicate she will not give up the child that she is raising as her own son.

Responding to the interview, Ms Janbua said the Farnells were 'dreaming' if they thought they could now take Gammy back to Australia, stuff.co.nz reported.
'I will take care of my baby until I die ... no-one will take my baby away from me,' Ms Chanbua said.
'I want them to come to Thailand. I will take Gammy to see them. But they will never get my boy.
'You are dreaming. You are already guilty of abandoning Gammy and now you think you can get away with this.'
Ms Farnell told 60 minutes, 'we always wanted our son... We miss him everyday.'
David Farnell denies reports that they abandoned Gammy.
'We never abandoned him. 'We never said to the surrogate mother to have an abortion. There is always hope. At the very beginning, when we found out he had Down's syndrome we said we still wanted him,' said Mr Farnell.

David Farnell is a convicted paedophile with 22 convictions for child sex offences, including one against a girl aged seven.
The 57-year-old sobbed in the interview when asked if they were concerned that the daughter in their care, Gammy's twin Pipah, would be taken away from them.
'I hope she won't be,' he replied through tears.
The Farnells have admitted that they have not contacted Ms Chanbua to enquire about Gammy's wellbeing since they left Thailand, nor have they contacted authorities for help.
Between 100 and 200 Australians are currently involved in Thai surrogacy and are being affected by the announcement that commerical surrogacies are being banned in Thailand.

This is both affecting parents that cannot leave Thailands with newborns and those that are awaiting the birth of their biological children, through Thai surrogates.
Australia has pressed the Thai government to allow a transition period before it bans commercial surrogacy in a bid to allow Australians to receive children being carried by Thai surrogate mothers.
The request made by Foreign Minister Julie Bishop comes a day after a Thai surrogacy agency was shut down by authorities.
As many as 50 Australian couples may have lost the opportunity to be parents after the Bangkok IVF clinic was shut down with Thai authorities suspecting links to an international baby trafficking organisation.
Following the closure of the All IVF Center on Friday, there are grave concerns that Thai surrogate mothers could abort their babies now they have no support from the clinic as the baby Gammy scandal has seen 40 clinics raided in a serious crackdown across Thailand.

An estimated 70 per cent of Australian couples seeking surrogacy attended the All IVF clinic
Surrogacy Australia founder Sam Everingham has called on the Thai authorities to ensure all of the clinic's surrogates are safe and the biological parents will be reunited with their babies at birth

Don't be quick to blame ADHD for difficulty focusing By Keath Low | Reviewed by Steven Gans, MD Updated February 13, 2018 Share Pin Email Print Hero Images/Getty Images More in ADHD Adult ADD/ADHD Symptoms Diagnosis Treatment Living With ADD/ADHD School Parenting Some people insist that they've developed signs of attention hyperactivity disorder (ADHD) in adulthood rather than childhood, but can the condition develop later in life? Take the 48-year-old woman who's recently had problems concentrating and remembering things. She wonders if she's exhibiting the hallmark symptoms of ADHD, especially in terms of inattention. So what's the case with adults who feel scattered and overwhelmed, particularly if they don't feel they exhibited these symptoms when they were younger. Does this mean they've developed ADHD as an adult or is something else at play? With this overview, learn more about the onset of the disorder, and what it means to develop ADHD-like symptoms later in life.ADHD: A Childhood Medical ConditionADHD is a neurobehavioral condition that develops in childhood. In order to meet the criteria for an ADHD diagnosis, some symptoms that cause impairment must be present in childhood. This means, no, ADHD does not develop in adulthood.Sometimes ADHD is hard to diagnose, as symptoms can present so differently from person to person. These symptoms can even show up in differing ways as a person ages. Thus, someone may not be diagnosed with the disorder until later in life, even though, in retrospect, it is clear that symptoms did exist at an earlier life stage. ADHD Over the LifespanHow do symptoms of ADHD change over time? Symptoms of ADHD may emerge as early as the preschool years, particularly if a child displays the hyperactive and impulsive type of symptoms. These behaviors tend to get noticed earlier simply because they are more disruptive.Symptoms of inattention tend to become more noticeable when a child gets older, enters grade school, and faces increased demands for sustained focus. Whereas very young children are encouraged to move around in the classroom setting and learn through physical activity and play, older children are expected to sit still, listen attentively, and respond quickly to questions posed by the teacher.Adolescence can bring on a whole new set of challenges as a teenager becomes more and more responsible for self-management while expectations, responsibilities, and academic and social pressures increase. Often ADHD symptoms become more pronounced when teens are expected to organize their own time, plan ahead to complete projects and tasks, and think carefully about potentially risky behavior. Issues such as impulsivity and lack of attention can result in more obviously negative outcomes ranging from teen pregnancy to reckless driving.Some people are able to manage symptoms with lots of support and coping strategies, but the impairments are still there. It may be that the symptoms aren't recognized until adolescence or even adulthood. The point is that for a person to be accurately diagnosed with ADHD, some symptoms must be present in childhood.The Bottom LineIf you suddenly experience symptoms that seem similar to ADHD but never have before, it's unlikely that ADHD is really the issue. Be sure to talk with your doctor about your concerns around memory and inattention. There are certain conditions of adulthood that can look a bit like ADHD, including depression, anxiety, sleep difficulties, and even menopause. Continue Reading

Every year following the NHL Draft, analysts from all around the globe break down the draft and critique why a specific player was taken, which player wasn't taken, why the Red Wings drafted a goalie, why the Panthers didn't draft a goalie, and so on.
When the Los Angeles Kings stepped up to the podium to make the 41st overall selection in the NHL Draft, Calgary native Jaret Anderson-Dolan was sitting in the stands with his family and had a feeling he was about to hear his name called.
Henri Jokiharju is a steady stay at home defenceman who is developing an offensive side to his game as he adjusts to the North American ice.
Perhaps, the best playmaker in the draft, undersized Yamamoto is an ultra-skilled winger who can make plays develop out of nothing and always knows where his linemates are.
JuusoValimaki was new to the WHL and the Americans last season and managed to put up seven goals and 32 points in 56 games. His leadership is quite noticeable on the ice as he communicates well and shows emotion at both ends of the ice.
Son of NHL defenceman Adam Foote, Callan Foote is yet another talented defenceman ready to come out of the Kelowna Rockets system. Foote raised many eyebrows in his underage season not only for his defensive play, but his offensive skills as well by posting 36 points in 71 games.
Ultra-competitive Michael Rasmussen is a high intensity, skilled power forward who has shown flashes of a potential top 10 pick this season. He has a great combination of power and skill.
Cody Glass is a competitor and enjoyed a huge growth spurt since the end of last season which saw him grow two inches and put on nearly 25 pounds. It has showed as he is among the league leaders in the WHL.
Nolan Patrick is ready to suit up in his third full season in Brandon after coming off a 102-point season in his sophomore campaign. Patrick's elite hockey sense mixed with his goal scoring and skating ability make him a dynamic threat in the offensive zone.
It's time for this year's class to get ready for the spotlight. Players like Nolan Patrick and Nico Hischier have spent most of their lives honing their hockey skills in pursuit of their dream of making it to the NHL. Now they're closing in on that reality as we get closer to the 2017 NHL Draft.

On this financial system, everybody is popping to the web for data, recommendation and doable enterprise alternatives. The explanation folks flip to the web is incontrovertible fact that there isn't a recession on the web. The web is countless, with no ceiling to cap a persons' talents or goals. The insane amount of cash that's up for grabs by way of the net is luring for everybody. The 2 main types of web enterprise folks be part of are MLM(Amway, Mary Kay) and direct gross sales. However the place does an individual start? How are scams prevented? Who could be trusted? What services or products ought to be chosen? There are numerous inquiries to have answered when selecting a great dwelling primarily based enterprise to start out on-line, however there are three questions which can be key.
1 – Firm Administration.
What sort of individuals are controlling the ship? Lookup their monitor file. Spend a while and analysis the folks working the chance earlier than you be part of. Try the fame they've made for themselves within the business. Nobody is ideal, however make certain the constructive suggestions closely outweighs the detrimental. At all times use your intestine. After some good analysis, it turns into simple to inform if someone is working a stable enterprise, or they're simply making an attempt to get your cash.
2 – Assist.
Until you could have a number of expertise, or you're a advertising guru, you'll want a ton of coaching. Test the enterprise for instruments like a 1(800) quantity you possibly can name anytime, a private sponsor or mentor, weekly dwell convention coaching calls, and a person discussion board the place you possibly can study out of your friends experiences. These instruments are a necessity, and shouldn't be missed. The correct schooling is required, or you may be chewed up and spit out instantly.
3 – Distinctive Merchandise.
Do not get into one thing that's already saturated. There are method to many firms selling the identical factor. Two very over saturated markets proper not are Nutritional vitamins and Juices… don't contact these, its to late within the sport and you'll get nowhere. Do analysis, discover out whats up and coming, and get into it early. Test and see if folks have just lately been capable of be part of and have had the success you might be in search of. The extra distinctive the product, the much less the competitors shall be, the extra profitable you possibly can turn out to be
Spend the time and discover the chance that proves to be wonderful in these areas. The rest goes to be a waste of your money and time. At all times needless to say there aren't any quick cuts in enterprise, each on-line and offline. The net world is full of alternatives promising you riches rapidly, and it's due to these false guarantees that 97% of on-line enterprise fail. Do not chase that rabbit down the rabbit gap, discover a respectable enterprise and keep it up. These three keys will result in a wonderful alternative, which offers you a stable, and profitable dwelling primarily based enterprise.

Today's Premier League card consists of only seven rather than the maximum eight Premier League fixtures, with Musselburgh Athletic engaged on East Of Scotland Cup duty at Dundonald Bluebell. That means an odd team out of course, and unfortunately that's us. A fortnight without a competitive fixture at this stage of the season clearly isn't ideal but that's our reality - we're next in action when Tayport are our Millfield visitors next Saturday.
We've an interesting friendly lined up to keep us occupied in the meantime, against newly-crowned Lowland League champions Spartans, the game to be played at the Christie Gillies Park home of Civil Service Strollers. Spartans' primary focus currently is their forthcoming SPFL promotion play off against Highland League champions Cove Rangers, who are groundsharing at Inverurie at present while their new stadium's under construction. With Spartans playing their home games on the synthetic surface at Ainslie Park, they're keen to get in some practice on real grass - initially they'd asked if Millfield was an option but our pitch has taken a little bit of a battering over the past couple of weeks and we preferred to play elsewhere. It's a few years since last we were at Marine Drive and we look forward to seeing the improvements there.
Today's game will present an interesting challenge against opposition whose players will be eager to stake their place in the team to face Cove. It's a beautiful day in Edinburgh for what's bound to be a useful exercise. ... See MoreSee Less

Baltimore Sun reporters Jeff Barker and Don Markus and editor Matt Bracken weigh in on the three biggest topics of the past week in
Is Dez Wells Maryland's next great player?
Don Markus: A generation of Maryland basketball has produced only a handful of truly great college players.
What puts a player in this group is not based solely on talent and statistics, but also on what they meant to the program.
Bias was arguably the most talented offensive player in this generation, and as a junior led Maryland to its first
Maryland would not have won a national title had Williams not stayed when the program went on probation. What he did as a senior – scoring a school-record 26.8 points a game – grabbed the attention of Smith, who loved The Wizard's high socks and sweet jumper. Vasquez did more with less around him than nearly any in this bunch, and nearly carried the Terps to the Sweet 16 singlehandedly.
Which brings this conversation to Wells.
It is a little premature to even consider putting Wells with some of these great Maryland players, given that he has only been a part of
The first thing you notice about Wells is his athleticism. When was the last time you saw a player since Bias block a shot over the rim at one end and dunk at the other – in one breathtaking sequence – as Wells did earlier this season? Wells is on an athletic par with Bias and
Wells is the best player off the dribble who I have seen at Maryland since Francis, and his pull-up mid-range jump shots the other night in the second half against
If he stays at Maryland long enough, Wells could be to Mark Turgeon's program what Walt Williams and eventually Smith was to
But the numbers he has put up this season – 12.2 points, 4.4 rebounds, 3 assists – are among the best ever by a Maryland player in his first year.
Consider where this year's team would be without him? I'm sure Turgeon shudders at that thought, given how
The only Terps in this generation with better stats in his first year were Jerrod Mustaf (18.5 points, 7.7 rebounds in Bob Wade's last year), Matt Roe (who transferred from
Wells might just be a more athletic version of Rhodes: a good all-around player who makes his teammates better but never gets the recognition he deserves. And this all could be moot if Wells leaves after next season, which seems likely given the way the system works these days.
But Wells talks about watching old clips of
What he has done in recent weeks makes me think Wells could be the next great Terp -- if he stays long enough.
With football signing day Wednesday, which Maryland unit stands the best chance for improvement?
Jeff Barker: It's not a stretch to say that the offense will be upgraded considerably. Injury-wracked Maryland finished with fewer yards (a 284.8-per-game average) than any team in the ACC.
After losing four quarterbacks, Maryland will benefit merely by having an actual healthy quarterback. Last year, the Terps were scouring the roster for anybody who had played the position effectively in high school.
New receiver Deon Long (Iowa Western Community College) could help Brown this season. You'll hear about Long on Signing Day. The Terps need another receiver to draw attention away from Stefon Diggs in the slot.
In his freshman season, Diggs was second in the conference in all-purpose yards (172.4 yards). He was aided by the emergence of receiver Marcus Leak, a deep threat who wears Torrey Smith's old Maryland number (82). But Leak's season ended early with a
Maryland has enough talented skill-position players – Diggs, Leak and running back Wes Brown among them – to be optimistic about upgrading its offense.
What it needs now is more offensive-line talent and depth – and also a bit of luck to steer it clear of the sorts of injuries that wrecked last season.
Who is the biggest sleeper in Maryland's football recruiting class?
Matt Bracken: We'll get into Most Underrated, Most Likely to Overachieve and other Maryland football recruiting superlatives next week. But today, we'll take a look at my pick for the Biggest Sleeper of the Terps' 2013 class -- two-star defensive end Chandler Burkett.
A 6-foot-4, 225-pound senior out of Bozeman High in Panama City, Fla., Burkett's first offer came from Maryland last spring, but he eventually chose Florida International over the Terps, Florida Atlantic, Middle Tennessee State, South Florida and Troy. When FIU dismissed coach Mario Cristobal in December, Burkett decided to reopen his recruitment.
"[FIU] said they'd have a new coach in over a month. [They said they'd] hopefully have a head coach by January 7. A month away," said Bozeman coach William Tillman. "[I asked Chandler], 'You want us to send anything else out?' He's like, 'Please do.' We contacted [assistant coach Lyndon]
Tillman's not sure why Burkett landed just two offers from
"We played him up in some varsity games as a ninth-grader," Tillman recalled. "The first game, [we] put him in there to try and motivate a senior. Next thing you know, he has seven tackles, three for loss, a blocked kick. [We said], 'OK, we're not getting that production from a senior. The freshman has to play.' He's been playing ever since."
Burkett saw time as a senior at middle linebacker, which Tillman said allowed him to play off the line of scrimmage, drop back in coverage and showcase his versatility. Burkett, with his 4.6 speed, did just that, recording 122 tackles (88 solo), including 15 for loss.
Burkett is clearly a developmental prospect that will be an interesting case study in the Maryland staff's evaluation skills. In Tillman's opinion, though, the Terps got a "hell of a defensive end" -- no matter what the recruiting services may say.
"He's got a hell of a drop step. If not, he'll chase you down the back side. I see him doing more of that," Tillman said. "He's got a big lower body, but can put on a lot of weight. I expect he's going to play [somewhere between] 260 or 275. He's still real skinny. He gets up there and gets on regular meals and all that stuff, he's going to put on even more body weight and hopefully keep that speed. He's a very legitimate football player, a great character academically [and] athletically. He's got the whole shebang."

I am currently working on a project and would love some input from
all your Orchidians out there. How do you stay motivated to work by
yourself with no one to answer to? How do you avoid feeling
isolated? Do you enjoy working by yourself? Suggestions, ideas,
thoughts are all welcome.
Thank you in advance.

How do you stay motivated to work by yourself with no one to
answer to? How do you avoid feeling isolated?
I moved 2000 miles away from all of my friends in jewelry class (and
It was amazing how much creativity was generated by talking over
design projects, fabrication techniques, etc. I missed that, but once
I was working on jewelry for shows I found I could get more done in
the isolation. I joined two guilds and started taking workshops.
Phone calls to jewelry class friends keep me in touch and we still
exhange ideas. For my own work, I set goals for building stock for
shows and put check lists up to keep on track but I balance that with
the contact of guild events and taking a casting class.

Long ago, when I was a psych grad student, my teachers talked of
people being either "inner directed" or "other directed." Other
directed people need interaction and feedback from others while
they're working; their motivation comes from outside themselves.
Inner directed people are driven from within; they work best on their
I suspect that many jewelers are inner directed. I know I'd much
rather be in my studio making jewelry than out at shows selling it.

I have a work schedule just like a 9-5 job. I work everyday and
depending on my physical state do what I can to create anything bad
good indifferent wonderous. It is all practice it is all valuble. I
get a lot of inspiration from music in my shop. I have always worked
with music in my studio.
An American Cameo Artist
I am so glad you started this thread. I feel this is probably a
common problem that no one talks about, I know that I am in the same
situation. When you work with multiple jewelers you draw from their
energy and enthusiasm. Also, when you have a "job" you usually have
someone to answer to, be on time, deadlines etc. I think this forum
is one way to stay motivated, being able to throw a question out
there and get multiple view points is wonderful. I have posed similar
questions before and the key that I keep getting told is discipline.
Making yourself sit down and get to work for a set amount of time
every day. Also, I take inspiration from looking at jewelry that
motivates and excites me. I recently watched a special on the
Discovery channel on the Hope diamond and boy did that get me charged
up, what a beauty. I know that the things I'm writting are all things
you heard before, but please know that their are certainly others who
are feeling the same frustration. Maybe we can keep each other moving

Well, I read Orchid, but for personal contact, I get most of that
from the woman who runs our artist's co-op.
So far, at any rate, I have no pics of anything I feel like posting
and showing to anyone, let alone people so far ahead of me
skills-wise. I swear I don't understand why people buy some of the
things they've bought from me. But they do, so I keep working at
Hunger is a great motivator! No workie no eatie. LOL
Hello Marlene and anyone on Orchid!
I have been doing much of my own diamond setting for the past 46
years, and here are a few answers for you. Some special orders
require being in a very quiet room, no noise, no interruptions, no
telephone calls. But knowing that any "small talk" can take your
mind off what you are doing…isolation is much needed at certain
times like these…if I want to be social I will meet my friends
during "none setting" days, but setting time is just that…setting
time! When I am deep thought, I refuse to be sidelined by trivial
needs, but I do take mandantory "simple, 5 minute mental breaks" 2-3
times an hour.
Motivation is the knowledge of "dead-lines", working to getting the
job done on time and within the prescribed time for delivery. Money?
is the second motivation, although it should be number One…but
Quality, Speed, Anticipating Repeat orders overweighs the instant
"money" at times. Do I enjoy working on my own? "yes, and
sometimes"…all of these items were described in the opening
paragragh. Although I do miss the interraction of my fellow peers,
How do I avoid being alone? I have my telephone nearby and MY kind
of Classical music on CD's and the "talk-radio". As I like my own
company and working alone is well suited for my quiet life-style.
At home, I can also communicate with many of my jewellery PC friends
in the States. So am I alone? Not by any stretch of the
imagination…at home I can email YOU at 6:30A.M. or during the
daytime if need be. Am I happy in both worlds?.with a resounding
yes!!!..Well I hope I've answered many of your questions…
Gerry Lewy!..a.k.a. "Gerry, the Cyber-Setter!"…
I also think that my motivation to fabricate pieces and to do it as
well as I can, comes from somewhere within in me.
And if that fails, I image that I am still at school and I'm going
to have to hand my work over to my tutor tomorrow who will inspect my
solder joints & settings with her 10X loupe or zoom microscope before
grading it. That seems to work a treat!

Hi Marlene,
Hunger and paying the rent are wonderful motivators! Just kidding…
First, I work on several projects simultaneously. That way I never
get blocked or bored. Second, for me it is not work. When I make
jewelry and wearable art, the world makes sense. I keep on pinching
myself to remind myself how lucky I am to have a gift that I can
share. Lastly, I work in an environment that is comfortable, so I
love to spend as much time there as possible. Candles, incense,
Keep shining,
I'll bet you get a million responses to this - we probably have all
struggled with it. Try these:
- join your local metalsmithing guild, look for other
appropriate arts groups to join
- find one or two others new to the guild or the area and meet
with them on and off just to talk - technical, artistic and/or
- explore setting up some regular mini-meetings for informal
critiques of new work (or your project, as it progresses.)
- identify someone whose work you admire perhaps someone
whose mentorship you would love to have; call and introduce
yourself; arrange a meeting just to see her/his work and talk
one on one. I did this, and she happened to be very generous
with and encouragement, best of all. Bring pieces
with you if possible.
- Do field research - meaning, ask around for galleries that
might fit your aesthetic (I asked my slide photographer's
metalsmithing wife! (you know who you are) and strolled
through, wearing my work. Strike up conversations with the
owners or employees and add to your network. Talk to anyone
behind the counter in any art/craft gallery or shop - you never
know what you might learn.
- Get on any mailing list that might have an event you'd enjoy
and possibly meet other artists
- Enter local shows (not selling on the street; juried
exhibitions) You'll meet a lot of others that way.
I'm sure there are many other ways to stay connected AND motivated
while working alone. My studio is in my basement - I don't even have
a window - but I love the solitude and meditational state it
generates. It's a relief from the noise of my children, spouse, life
in general. I also listen to music while I work.
I've found that only through active efforts do I meet other
metalsmiths & artists. Some day I hope to share a studio with a few
other people, as we did in art school. It was inspiring and fun.
Best of luck to you.

Keep busy, and stretch your imagination and your skills. Look for
ideas in your particular setting that are applicable to jewelry.
Look at hardware–many useful ideas for designs and engineering.
Every item in your home or workshop has been designed, possibly for
both function and looks. Your monitor, keyboard, CPU (OK, most CPUs
are still ugly), your trashcan, pens, etc. Look at nature and her
endless designs. She didn't make just one standard leaf. Caladiums
are heart shaped, aspens are lance shaped, maples are palmate, and
so on. Emulate, combine, dissect.
The Navajos have a beautiful saying in their Blessing Way prayer:
Beauty before you
Beauty behind you
Beauty in the heavens
Beauty at your feet
Walk in Beauty
Open your eyes, and allow your brain and your hands to translate the
beauty you see. You will never run out of ideas.
Hello Marlene, great questions. I've certainly thought about these
things too, just never got around to putting it into so many words.
No time like the present though, so …
... How do you stay motivated to work by yourself with no one to
answer to?
... How do you stay motivated to work by yourself with no one to
answer to?
I've had practice at the self-employed thing for years now so I
thought that making the transition to jewellery would be a cinch. It
hasn't been.
Sometimes I go for months at a stretch without a speed-bump, other
times I just die and wonder what the hell I'm doing this for. But
then I remember that I'd do it one way or another anyway, so best get
back to it. And off I go again. It would help if I was making some
real money at it, which I am not, but I suppose that's why people
invented faith and marketing strategies and such things.
How do you avoid feeling isolated?
How do you avoid feeling isolated?
I don't think you can avoid it, at least not if you're disconnected
from a like-minded group of people. Orchid helps a lot. I've found
that keeping a blog helps somewhat too because it gives people some
reason to contact you and chat about stuff that's going on. Still,
would be nice to have friends in the business nearby.
Do you enjoy working by yourself?
Do you enjoy working by yourself?
I've found that it's not so much working by myself that I like it's
working for myself that really matters to me. I think sometimes
that it would be nice to share studio space with someone … but then
I think about tools growing legs and cigarette smoke and … well, I
begin to wonder if "by myself" and "for myself" aren't maybe the same
thing after all.
I'm not exactly answering the question behind the questions am I?
Sorry, gotta get back to work.

I gotta know how can anyone sit and be cautious at mounting a
diamond worth $10's, of thousands of dollars while others in the
same room talking gibberish and triviality, and wasting time…I
would find that almost impossible. I'd love to wear earphones to
block off their "noise". Concentration on diamond setting on e.g.
Princess stones is hard enough, but to be immersed with "talking
heads" all the time is not conducive to a happy diamond-setter ! ! !
I once worked in such a room like this, and one of my setter friends
actually told this "motor-mouth" fellow to "SHUT UP!" I'm using
politically correct language…(without the adjectives)…;>)
Dear Marlene,
the best way that i refocus is to think about all those people that
have to go to a crappy desk job inside an office with no windows, and
constantly watching the clock. i luckly chose the path that i knew i
would feel comfortable in, and am doing something i love, even though
i dont make to much money at it. if you talk to most people, most of
them want to do exactly what you are doing. i find when i have a
lack of motivation i focus on doing a more perfect job you can always
motivate yourself by doing a better job. or another way is to take
some classes to learn more skills this can rejuvinate your spirit,
your in portland take a class with Kate Wolf.
another way to get motivated is to be overly organized and make more
deadlines for yourself, or my favorite way to be motivated is to
have a couple of kids.
as far as working alone, i cant help you there, i love working by
myself at night when it is quiet, it is relaxing to me.
good luck

I love working by myself. I am definitely inner directed and have
always been auto-didactic, so this works well for me, but it is
still possible to loose momentum/focus/etc with certain aspects of
work (polishing, labeling, etc) and at such times I find that lists
and schedules help. In consdieration of this, I started making huge
charts of my months (about 30" x 40" each) on white paper, and I
write in big deadlines/timelines in red with general lists of
daily/regular deadlines/ necessities in black. For some reason this
I have also done some collaborative projects, taken classes, etc and
this has been exciting in ways I forgot about and feels like little
vacations somehow. The problem with being solo and having a home
studio (,like I do,) is that sometimes you can work too hard, or not
relegate which time is work time and which is private time. I set
certain days that are %100 'time off'.
Some people find that sharing a studio with others really helps
them, they are still self-directed but have outside work related
stimuli around.
Hope that helps
How do you avoid feeling isolated?
How do you avoid feeling isolated?
For the first 8 years I was self-employed, work was pretty lonely.
Staying motivated was never my problem, but isolation was a big
An area group was formed to put on an annual studio tour that I got
involved in. Several other similarly isolated artists grabbed on to
the project like drowning sailors clinging to a life raft. The chance
to work together on something was missing from our lives and this
organisation we began gave us the opportunity to do something that
was not just about one's self. We probably made it into much more
work than it needed to be, but it was such a change to work WITH other
people, not just around them.
Even when you go to shows where there are lots of other people, what
happens in your booth is up to you. Have a great show, win awards,
make lots of money, it's all about you. Have a bad show, suffer in
bad weather, car breaks down, get robbed, it's all about you.
It has been years since I have worked alone for more than a few hours
at a time. Even though the chit-chat can be a distraction, staying on
task is a lot easier when several other people are paying attention
to whats going on. I can't really expect my employees to stick to
their knitting if I am goofing off.
Working alone takes a lot of discipline that many people have trouble
with. It is easy to fool yourself by staying busy in ineffiecent
ways, that you are getting the job done when you might be
procrastinating or letting a blinkered personal muse make stuff no
one else could ever love.
I am really lucky that the people I work with now are very honest and
blunt about what goes on. If they think a design is ugly, they say
so. If craftsmanship is sloppy, I'm busted. So when they like
something I know they mean it. There was a time I had employees who
were suck-ups and yes-men. A good working culture is important for
any organisation - but working alone, the working culture becomes
personal habits and the only checks and balances are the customers
and the bill collectors.
Everyone has different needs and skills. Some people do just
brilliantly alone. But just because you are asking, my take on it is
that you should get involved with some other people in some way.

How do you stay motivated to work by yourself with no one to

How do you stay motivated to work by yourself with no one to
answer to?
It is easier to stay motivated if you are involved in a body of work
beyond just the current item in progress. I am usually working on a
series of pieces, so as each one is being accomplished I am engaged
in an internal dialogue about the other projects in the sequence.
Different segments of the work
allow me to contemplate the details of the items and think about the
pricing and logistics. This helps keeps me focused simply because
there is so much follow up work to be done once the pieces of jewelry
are completed.
A lot of the work I do has quite a bit of planning involved at the
inception, so I know how long it will likely take to achieve a
certain result. Since the body of work itself is so time consuming
and labor intensive in my particular case, it really requires me to
stay organized and focused. I also find that staying in touch
regularly with the galleries by phone and email helps me maintain a
time and spatial connection to the world outside the studio. It keeps
me motivated and it gives me incentive to stay on track with my
schedule and commitments.
Do you enjoy working by yourself? How do you avoid feeling
Do you enjoy working by yourself? How do you avoid feeling
For the most part I am very content to work by myself. I do enjoy my
solitude and I find it productive to have long uninterrupted periods
of time to work diligently and thoughtfully. Much of the work I do
requires a very quiet and focused environment, so not having anyone
else occupying the same space makes that aspect easier to control. I
think as I get older I have less tolerance for distraction, or maybe
it just takes more cerebral energy to remain concentrated on the task
at hand. Either way, there are benefits to having a solitary space;
no one to interrupt or disorganize the studio, no one else's mood or
temperament to accommodate or interact with, no one else adjusting
the thermostat or volume up or down.
On the other hand, working alone does have the potential towards
isolation and withdrawal. Isolation can be self imposed as well as
being either geographical or situational. I have experienced all
three at different times in my current studio during 11 years in the
same location. This is one of the reasons that I find correspondence
with my colleagues and friends to be critical in maintaining some
semblance of mental health. Being able to keep in touch with others,
many of whom have similar private studio environments provides
engagement and camaraderie which is motivating and nourishing to the
creative process. Knowing there are others out there whose
experiences are resonant with your own helps to avoid feeling
sequestered. This is one of the principle reasons I am looking
forward to relocating (soon) to an area with much closer proximity to
a population of artists, goldsmiths, and educators.
I find the time away from the studio when I get to meet friends and
colleagues in person especially rewarding and fruitful. Those far too
infrequent occasions when I attend social activities or industry and
trade events are akin to recharging my battery pack. Even more so is
the time I get to spend in the classroom teaching. When I am able to
apply some of my own perspective in an instructional capacity, and
experience the result through the hands and eyes of my students, it
is fulfilling in a way that is very different than the creativity I
experience at my bench. This contributes a great deal to my feeling
of aesthetic satisfaction and artistic accomplishment, and it helps
sustain me during those long sessions of productive solitude back in
the studio.

Marlene, while I no longer work alone in my own studio on a daily
basis, I still do from time to time. Even in my current job during
those rare occasions when I do bench work, I feel isolated. Even when
there are no customers in the store, my coworkers rarely talk to me
as I work. In those times, my sole motivation is to finish what I
started. I simply must, with any task, render a finished product.
Perhaps it is my own form of obsessive-compulsive disorder.
Do you enjoy working by yourself? How do you avoid feeling
Do you enjoy working by yourself? How do you avoid feeling
I enjoy both working alone, and with others. Part of the reason I
don't feel isolated, I suppose, is because I enjoy my own company
very much. Don't get me wrong, I'm not narcissistic or self-centered
(well, no much, anyway), I've just come to grips with the fact that
I like me.
The other reason I don't feel isolated is because when I work alone,
I accompany myself with my lifelong friend, music. Many were the
times in the early days of my little shop at home when I vowed to
get a CD player to put back there. What I wound up with is an mp3
player. Now, I have hours and hours of my favorite music I've ripped
from CDs to listen to. It only takes a few moments to change musical
content, and I have more selections than any formatted radio station
or satellite program to listen to (we have XM at my job, and it can
be as tedious as any radio format). The best part is that it fits in
my pocket and can go anywhere I do.

The Power of Six
Published 11:35 pm, Friday, October 21, 2011
Recently there seems to have been an obsession with supernatural creatures in young adult fiction books. Everything from zombies to werewolves has been written about. Then, there are the books focusing on faeries and witches. However, there are very few books about aliens line the bookshelves, something I didn't think about until I started reading Pittacus Lore's Lorien Legacies series.
Never before have I wanted to be an alien, or to know one. Lore's books changed that completely. Suddenly I wanted to part of that world. I think that is one reason why Lore's books stand out amongst the other young adult books.

On August 23 Lore released the second book in the Lorien Legacies series: The Power of Six. The book starts where the first one, I Am Number Four, left off. John Smith (aka Number Four), Sam Goode, and Number Six are still on the run from the government because they believe that John is a terrorist rather than an alien learning to protect Earth.
While I Am Number Four certainly had action in it, that book focused mostly on John Smith's struggle with trying to be normal and his romance with Sarah Hart, leaving the action till the end of the book. In The Power of Six there is much more action and I loved that about the book. At the same time I thought Number Seven's struggle with her protector, Adelina, was an interesting relationship and explored a new aspect of the relationship between the guardians and the nine who are meant to protect Earth. Adelina, who is meant to teach Marina (Number Seven) about her legacies, or skills she will develop to help protect Earth, refuses to acknowledge her duties. Rather, Adelina has turned her life to serving God and pushed aside any connections with the world she came from.
While there is very little action in those scenes, there is plenty of it in John Smith's story, which is continued in The Power of Six. Without giving away too much, John Smith and the others have to run from a helicopter, save a lost item, and then fight against the big, bad Mogadorians who want to take over Earth.
There are also romantic issues to add to the story's plot. It is more than just a love triangle in John Smith's life. He believes that he will only love Sarah Hart, and yet he finds himself attracted to Six. To complicate matters, Sam has a huge crush on Six. And, who does Six like? Well, I cannot spoil that part.
My only problem reading the book were the abrupt changes from Marina to John's story. The only clue that Lore has changed characters is the styling of the font. As I moved through the story, it became less of a jolt and actually flowed well. However, that first time I was uncertain of what had happened. I expected the chapter to acknowledge the character's point of view. Later in the story, though, the acknowledging of point of view would end up taking the reader from the story. The earlier chapters revolve around one point of view at a time. Then, when their stories begin to connect, it is not uncommon for two points of view per chapter. The movements happen quickly and the subtle change in font keeps the story moving without jolting the reader.
I am sincerely excited about the third book and what will happen to the characters. A lot of new information is revealed at the end of the book. Plus, one of my favorite characters has gone missing so I am dying to see what happens to them.
If you enjoy reading young adult books, but would like to read something unique, then I think the Lorien Legacies are for you. The books combine aliens, teenage issues, and action into an amazing series that deserves to be read. Much like the Harry Potter series, I think that this one is perfect for people of any age. It is not just for a younger market.

Tackling Guesstimates in Interviews
Soumya Gupta
Hi Soumya
I have read quite a few of your posts on Guesstimates.
I have a doubt
what if I take a wrong assumption which has a huge error in comparison to the correct value then what will happen?
for eg. in one of your posts, you calculated the chocolate consumption in delhi and you took an assumption that population of delhi is 20,000,000 what if I don't know this while solving and I took it 100,000,000?
