The Highland Rim Distillers tangled with the Stewarts Creek Scouts on Sunday April 6th at the beautiful Historic Sam Davis Home and Plantation. It was a perfect day for base ball and the match was a finely contested affair. The Distillers got on the board first with two aces tallied in the bottom of the first inning. The match entered the fifth frame with the contestants locked in a 4 to 4 tie. The top of the fifth was a boon for the Scouts as they tallied 6 aces however the stubborn Distillers clawed their way back from the deficit and tied the game at 11 in the bottom of the ninth. The tenth frame proved to be the undoing of the Scouts as they allowed the winning run to score in the bottom of the inning. Only one player was forced to seek medical attention.

11 January 2016
During a recent summit over in the UK leading Anglican Clerics claims the global Anglican Church faces "dire consequences" unless it enforces a traditionalist line against homosexuality.
Bishop Mouneer Anis of Egypt, convenor of Anglican primates in the "global south" - the bulk of the church's 80million members - said that unless the issue was resolved there would be "irreparable" splits, not just between countries, but even parishes.
The heads of almost 40 separate churches met for the first time in more than a decade in what Archbishop of Canterbury Justin Welby sees as a "last roll of the dice" to save the Anglican Communion.
The split is said to be so deep he is providing separate chapels amid fears the groups will not even pray together.
The archbishop hopes to avert a schism between liberals and conservatives after the turmoil of the past 12 years - caused by the US branch, the Episcopal Church, ordaining an openly gay bishop, Gene Robinson.
One of his aides likened the move to "separate bedrooms" rather than divorce.

How to Digitize Hand-Crafted Textures
High-quality textures are an integral part of creating digital artwork with depth, realism and visual interest. One of the best ways of creating good textures is to develop them yourself.But once you've created a hand-crafted texture, how do you best digitize it? In this short video tutorial from my recent course on texture crafting in Adobe Photoshop, I'll show you the best way to scan your textures for later digital use. We'll discuss the software to use, scanner settings, and more. Note that this is only for textures that can safely and easily be placed onto a scanner bed.Watch (Read more...)

Attorney plans appeal of West verdict
May 08, 2017 06:30 PM
Alex West's attorney, Cheryl Coleman, will be appealing the conviction of her client on eight of 12 counts, including manslaughter, in connection with a fatal boating accident on Lake George that killed an 8-year-old girl.
Coleman had a tough case in front of her -- 12 counts against Alex West. The district attorney brought dozens of witnesses. Including the 8-year-old's crying mother, father and grandparents. She took it personally.
"I wish they'd left earlier, I wish they'd left later. I wish that everybody's life didn't intersect the way they did," explained Coleman.
She was surprised by the way the verdict split, guilty on all charges but four: vehicular manslaughter, vehicular assault first degree and second degree and boating while ability impaired by drugs. She says she will be appealing this case.
"They don't have the drug involvement, immediately makes for a huge issue on appeal, in addition to, we think, a lot of other issues," explained Coleman.
Jurors said they weren't hung up on the highest count -- manslaughter, but on lower counts. Chief among them, criminally negligent homicide.
"Did he act reckless because he was drinking? Did he act reckless because he had supposed allegedly drugs in his system? Did he not act reckless? What constitutes reckless, you know? So those were the charges we were hung up on," explained Steve DeJesus, one of the jurors.
Many of the charges depended on whether or not West was impaired at the time of the crash. Remember, blood-testing evidence that showed West had drugs in his system 14 hours after the crash, was not used in court because of issues with the warrant.
Coleman says she hopes to have a form into an appellate court by the end of the week. She hopes to have Alex West out on bail very soon.
NewsChannel 13 also tried to speak with West's father, but he denied our request.

Ok, this won't be very long. It is a subject that I have felt strongly about lately...maybe because I live in California but also for other reasons. I am speaking of those who say that they are tolerant of people who have a differing "belief system" or "orientation" or who are just plain different. You've heard the speeches about how our differences make us great and that life would be boring if everyone were the same and that we should be tolerant of others' differences. Bull! I don't agree! You want to know why? And before you let the steam blow out your ears...just keep reading.
You want to know why I don't believe that we should just be tolerant? BECAUSE THAT ISN'T ENOUGH! What does tolerate mean anyway? It means that the other person or group of people is tolerable...or tolerable enough that I don't have to hate them or discriminate them...openly. What?!
Just recently, here in California, we were able to vote on Proposition 8. This proposition would define that a marriage is made up of one man and one woman. As you can imagine, most people feel very strongly about this. They either adamantly agree or disagree. I never met a person that said, "You know, I just don't care." People that wanted Prop 8 not to pass were possibly seen as immoral or just too liberal. People that fought for Prop 8 were seen as haters and bigots and that they wanted to impose their beliefs on everyone. I'll tell you right now...I voted yes on Prop 8. Not because I have any problems with gay people. I have absolutely no problem. I'll elaborate in a moment. I just want to say that Prop 8 wasn't about being anti-gay.
Growing up in the San Francisco Bay Area, I grew up learning the meaning of the word diversity. I went to school and work with people from many nationalities and cultures. I also knew many gay people...many. Some were very good friends of mine. As I think of my friend John, Clayton, Carlos, Shelly, Robbin, Mayra, Jared, and others....I think of nothing but great and happy times. Not all of them "came out" during the times that we were the closest, but have since and it doesn't surprise me at all to find out that they are. And it doesn't change my feelings for them. I don't tolerate them....I love them for the kind of people they are. They are amazing people. Some of the strongest, best people I know.
I recently watched a great movie on Lifetime called "Prayers for Bobby" and I highly recommend it. It is based on a true story of a boy growing up in Walnut Creek, CA. I was born in Walnut Creek and grew up in a neighboring city. This boy knew he was gay from an early age but wouldn't admit it to himself or anybody else until his Senior year in High School. The grief and hell that he went through, even by his own extremely religious mother, was disheartening...to say the least and absolutely maddening at worst. He ended up committing suicide because of the emotional distress that the intolerence of others caused. Sigourney Weaver played the mother and she did a great job. Watch it. It is the kind of movie that affects your life.
My final thought is this: I am a Christian. I belong to the LDS Church. I believe in Jesus Christ and that He is the supreme example. The scripture that quotes Him does not say, "As I have tolerated you, tolerate one another." So don't tell me that you are tolerant...because to be tolerant only is.....well, intolerable.

Don Marsala, Vassar's Director of Safety & Security, noted in a campus-wide e-mail that this shut-down, as well as other recent actions performed by Safety & Security, was a part of "Operation Big Bang." Marsala claims that this is an attempt to end the underground prostitution scene on campus led by "Madame Cappy," or Vassar College President Catherine Bond Hill, who is on sabbatical this semester. "While the Madame's away, the whores we'll slay," wrote Marsala.
Indeed, the scandal has shot off beyond just the one senior apartment. The Chronicle, in conjunction with affiliates at the Westboro Baptist Church, unrobed a prostitution ring that has erected a massive presence on campus. "Almost every dorm on campus houses at least 10 Ivy League whores," said a member of the college's Campus Life Committee in a recent statement, "They generally pick up their Johns at campus events, like Mug Nights and Villard Room parties."
These shocking revelations have caused many within the college community to confront difficult questions. "I'm worried that my neighbor may be an Ivy League whore," explained one sophomore, "There's just no other way to explain his cosmopolitan attitude and preppy clothing." One Ivy League whore, however, warned the Chronicle that there are more of them than we think. "Almost anybody can be an Ivy League whore," said our source, under condition of anonymity, "in fact, most Vassar students are."
The Vassar administration recently decided to enact a smoking ban at Vassar, beginning in the Fall 2015 semester. The Chronicle Editorial Board believes that this smoking ban violates the student trust and central tenets of Vassar's system of shared governance.
"Big Brother" star Dan Gheesling will come to Vassar on Dec. 4, 2013, to speak about leadership, lifestyle, and personal empowerment.
Adam Ninyo recounts his love for Vassar College's wonderful All Campus Dining Center – the Deece.

Block design blog talks to talented new photographer, Sarah Bennett about her graduate show, Capture 135 at Free Range 2016. We ask her about her distinctive style, and how she found inspiration in Block product design.
I would describe my photographic style as quite graphic and vibrant.
I love working in the studio and experimenting with composing images using various objects that interest me, and materials such as paper.
I focus on shapes, colour, shadow and the form of objects. I try to find ways to abstract them, or to emphasise certain characteristics.
I also like playing with perception - seeing how I can trick the eye through choice of perspective or depth.
Another side to my work is more conceptual, and these projects are driven by an idea or theme rather than studio experimentation.
Who are your artistic inspirations?
I have been hugely inspired by the work of many still life photographers such as Carl Kleiner, Scheltens & Abbenes and Ania Wawrzkowicz, mainly because of the way they spend time physically creating sets.
These are more like temporary sculptures that are photographed and dismantled. I find this hands-on way of working more appealing than relying on Photoshop or CGI.
As a perfectionist myself, I am particularly amazed at the clean finish of Carl Kleiner's work.
How did you discover Block?
I first saw the Sketch Desk Tidy at Foyles. I thought it was so striking and unique that I went straight to the Block website to see the rest of the products.
Why did you choose to use Block products in your work?
I decided on this project before finding a company or specific products, but once I found the Sketch Desk Tidy I realised Block would fit perfectly. As well as the vibrant colours which I was immediately drawn to, and the very satisfying clean lines, the thing about Block that really fit my own project was the obvious influence from other branches of art and design such as architecture and sculpture.
What is your favourite Block item that you do not possess?
I love the look of the new Clipboard Frame because I always want to display more of the photos I take rather than keeping everything on my phone or laptop. Such an easy and nice looking way to do so would mean I had no excuse! I would also use it to clip up reminders or to-do lists as I love things that help me to keep organised.
What are your future plans?
I plan to freelance as a still life photographer, producing creative work for creative companies similar to Block. My website, www.sarahbennett.info features my work and I also like to take some behind the scenes pictures for my instagram feed, @sarahnb__.

Let's See If I Can
I'd like to say it's me, but it's not, my husband did it. He is the one that put the pictures on my computer so that I could post them here. Let's see if I can . . . Here is the sweater (a rear view with the hood and cabling showing) that I FINALLY finished yesterday after about 9 hours of assembly. I never got around to working on it Thursday or Friday due to children's school things. So, when I sat down to assemble the sweater yesterday (it was somewhat held together at the top by the hood) I still had to sew the side seams, sleeves, and line up the cables on the sleeves and the body. Keeping in mind this was my first cable project (and I thought they were easy), it took me f.o.r.e.v.e.r. to get it put together just right. My husband let me sit pretty much the entire day because I think he was getting scared of me. I was a little frustrated! He actually left around 4:30 to take my oldest son to the U2 concert (they had a blast). Me, I couldn't have left even if I wanted to. It was one of those things that could not have been interrupted. It just wouldn't have worked. I thought I might just throw it in the garbage. And, I have been so excited to finish it. Well, it is done. I might actually wear it! With that said, this is a cotton/angora blend and as I assembled and reassembled the sweater little bits of fuzzies kept flying in my eyes (and I wear contacts) and that just added to the frustration. I took the contacts out and that helped but ya know . . . I finished a little shrug that is basically a rectangle tonight, as well. I thought I would start another sweater but this just required seaming up the sides. I like it and will post photos at another time. I would have to wear it with the right thing to do it justice. I don't have the fashion sense (ever) but especially now to make it work. So, here is the cake that I made on Thursday. I know it sold right away at the bake sale, but I don't know for how much. Okay placing these pictures in the appropriate spot is NOT working out for me! So, now I get to begin another sweater. I have 2 pullovers I'm thinking of (both with baby alpaca - more fuzzies?). I'll see which looks easiest and start there. I am still debating on the felted bags for the mothers. I'm still waiting until Tuesday. It's been a busy weekend and I'm glad I'm done with it, but now the week and the real work begins! I think I need to wash school clothes - NOW! Better run . . .

Here's a throwbaaaaack. I think I wrote it about 4 years ago.
my brother
uttering mothering, almost smothering, words
sending my heart fluttering like butterflies tumbling down to absurd depths
then taking flight
racing, beating, tracing light
shaking, making, creating right
when wrong seemed all there could be
but starry nights and the heights of flying eagles remind me i'm still free
and fresh mountain air in my lungs remind me i can still breathe
though i may drown
cuz you be so way down deep in who i'm is
like from since back when we were two little ashy knee'd grinning kids
so much a part of me that you're like my heart to me
or maybe a twin soul, living whole and yet apart from me
but still connected...
please know i don't forget it
and it will not go neglected
that little yellow flower that you planted in my heart with your words

Adams homers again as Cardinals beat Nats 5-2
Credit: The Associated Press
ST. LOUIS — Matt Adams might want to have his father's visit last longer.
Adams homered for the third straight game — all with his father in attendance — and Matt Holliday also went deep, helping the St. Louis Cardinals to a 5-2 victory and series sweep Sunday over the Washington Nationals.
Adams gave St. Louis a 2-0 lead in the second inning with a two-run shot on an 0-2 pitch, his sixth homer of the season. Adams' father, Jamie, has been visiting from Pennsylvania on Father's Day weekend.
"Unfortunately, he's going to go home," Adams said.

Tempeh is a fermented soybean that originated in Indonesia. It is made by a natural culturing and a controlled fermentation process that includes adding a tempeh starter, which is a mix of live mold. When it sits for a day or two, it becomes a cake-like, fermented food product.
Tempeh is becoming popular, and today more and more grocery stores hold tempeh products. This is because tempeh is known to reduce cholesterol, increase bone density, reduce menopausal symptoms and promote muscle recovery. In addition to these amazing benefits, tempeh has the same protein quality as meat and contains high levels of vitamins B5, B6, B3 and B2.
Tempeh Nutrition Facts
Tempeh's fermentation process and its use of the whole soybean gives it a higher content of protein vitamins and minerals. It has a firm texture and an earthy flavor, which becomes more noticeable as it ages. Because of its nutritional value, tempeh is used worldwide in vegetarian cuisine. Its ability to take on many flavors and textures makes it a great substitute for meat products.
100 grams of tempeh has about:
- 196 calories
- 11 grams fat
- 3 grams saturated fat
- zero cholesterol
- 9 grams carbohydrate
- zero sugar
- 18 grams protein
- 0.4 milligrams riboflavin/vitamin B2 (21 percent DV)
- 2.1 milligrams niacin (11 percent DV)
- 0.2 milligrams vitamin B6 (10 percent DV)
- 21 micrograms folate (5 percent DV)
- 0.5 milligrams pantothenic acid (5 percent DV)
- 0.1 milligrams thiamine (4 percent DV)
- 0.1 micrograms vitamin B12 (2 percent DV)
- 1.3 milligrams manganese (64 percent DV)
- 0.5 milligrams copper (27 percent DV)
- 253 milligrams phosphorus (25 percent DV)
- 77 milligrams magnesium (19 percent DV)
- 2 milligrams iron (12 percent DV)
- 401 milligrams potassium (11 percent DV)
- 96 milligrams calcium (10 percent DV)
- 1.6 milligrams zinc (10 percent DV)
- 14 milligrams sodium (1 percent DV)
7 Tempeh Benefits
1. Contains Probiotics
The consumption of fermented, probiotic foods has many benefits. The microflora that lives in fermented foods creates a protective lining in the intestines and shields it against pathogenic factors, such as salmonella and E.coli.
Tempeh and other fermented foods lead to an increase of antibodies and a stronger immune system; plus, they regulate the appetite and reduce sugar and refined carb cravings. In fact, fermented vegetables can help treat candida in the gut. Probiotics are also able to break down sugars so they're more easily digested, break down carbohydrates, control harmful bacteria in the body, fight diarrhea, help with indigestion, fight chronic inflammation and boost immune system function.
2. Reduces Cholesterol
A scientific review published in The American Journal of Clinical Nutrition evaluated 11 studies that were conducted between 1990 and 2006. Researchers found that soy isoflavones, which are found in tempeh and other soy products, significantly decreased serum total cholesterol and LDL cholesterol levels. They also noticed that soy proteins that contained enriched or depleted isoflavones also significantly improved lipid profiles.
The niacin in tempeh is also considered an important treatment option for helping reduce dangerously high cholesterol levels. Niacin, or vitamin B3, has been proven to lower the risk of cardiovascular disease in patients with mixed dyslipidemia. Dyslipidemia is an elevation of plasma cholesterol, triglycerides or both.
A 2011 study done at the University of Kansas Medical Center found that supplementing with niacin has been shown to be very effective at lowering cholesterol naturally for those who are at an increased risk for heart attack, stroke or other forms of heart disease due to having high LDL cholesterol levels, low levels of HDL cholesterol and elevated triglyceride levels.
3. Increases Bone Density
The calcium provided by tempeh is involved in the growth and maintenance of bones. Calcium, together with other essential minerals like vitamin K and vitamin D, is needed to maintain bone mineral density and prevent weak, brittle bones and fractures. It helps form a part of hydroxyapatite, the mineral complex that makes your bones and teeth hard; this complex maintains bone density and helps bones heal. People with a calcium deficiency are susceptible to having weak and pliable bones, increasing the risk of fractures.
Copper, another mineral present in tempeh, also plays an important role in growing bones, in addition to aiding connective tissue and muscle growth. A copper deficiency can show up in brittle bones that are prone to breaking and not fully developing, plus it leads to osteoporosis, low strength and muscle weakness, weak joints, and more.
Research done at the University of Akron in Ohio suggests that copper consumption increases the rate of bone healing and plays a key role in the maintenance and repair of tissue. State-of-the-art approaches to treatment of bone diseases, including the lengthening of bone and repairing fractures, can be improved by paying closer attention to the role of copper as a mineral required for optimal treatment.
4. Reduces Menopausal Symtoms
The isoflavones in tempeh are known to serve as a natural remedy for menopausal relief. In 2000, the North American Menopausal Society established a goal to develop an evidence-based consensus opinion on the role of isoflavones in menopausal health. After evaluating animal and human studies, the most convincing health effects were attributed to the actions of isoflavones on lipids. The main biological functions of lipids include storing energy, signaling and acting as structural components of cell membranes.
Studies associated isoflavones with statistically significant reductions in low-density lipoproteins (LDL) and triglycerides, as well as increases in high-density lipoproteins (HDL). Data even supported the efficacy of isoflavones in reducing the incidence and severity of hot flashes, but some studies did not find any difference between the isoflavone recipients and the controls. The researchers suggest that although more evidence is needed to determine specific doses, clinicians should consider recommending whole foods that contain isoflavones, like tempeh, to menopausal women, especially for the cardiovascular benefits of these foods.
5. Provides Muscle-Building Protein
A hundred grams of tempeh provides 37 percent of an adult's recommended daily intake of protein — that's a great source of protein! This is comparable to 100 grams of pork chops or chicken legs. And to boot, the fermentation process has already converted some of the protein into amino acids, so your digestive system doesn't have to work so hard with tempeh.
Protein foods are important because they keep our metabolism running, our energy up and our blood sugar levels stable. Protein is used in every single cell of the body and is critical for building muscle mass, supporting neurological function, aiding in digestion, balancing hormones and keeping an upbeat mood.
Because high-protein foods like tempeh make us feel full and require more work for the body to break down and digest, they contribute to weight loss and are more beneficial than fast-acting refined carbohydrates.
6. Contains Diabetes-Fighting Manganese
With almost 65 percent of your daily value covered with 100 grams of tempeh, manganese is an important mineral present in this beneficial food. Manganese plays a role in numerous chemical processes, including synthesis of nutrients like cholesterol, carbohydrates and proteins. Manganese is also involved in the formation of bone mass, and it helps balance hormones naturally.
One of the most important benefits of manganese — its ability to fight diabetes. Manganese is needed to help with proper production of digestive enzymes responsible for a process called gluconeogenesis. Gluconeogenesis involves the conversion of protein's amino acids into sugar and the balance of sugar within the bloodstream. Manganese has been shown to help prevent overly high blood sugar levels that can contribute to diabetes.
A 2013 study conducted at the Departments of Internal Medicine and Biochemistry at the Veterans Affairs Medical Center in Salt Lake City found that manganese supplementation in mice increased insulin secretion to improve glucose tolerance under conditions of dietary stress. These are promising results concerning the efficacy of manganese as a natural remedy for diabetes.
7. Treats Cancer and Inflammatory Diseases
Angiogenesis is the physiological process through which new blood vessels form from pre-existing vessels. This is a completely normal and vital process for growth and development, but it's also a fundamental step in the transition of tumors from a benign state to a malignant one. This is why the use of angiogenesis inhibitors has become popular in the treatment of cancer.
A 2005 study published in The British Journal of Nutrition tested if isoflavones, the polyphenolic compounds found in soybean products, might be useful agents for the inhibition of angiogenesis. The results suggest that the isolated isoflavones from tempeh can be an important tool for the treatment of cancer and inflammatory diseases.
A 1998 study published by the American Association for Cancer Research found that soy isoflavone consumption may exert cancer-preventive effects by decreasing estrogen synthesis and altering metabolism away from gene-damaging metabolites toward inactive metabolites. The study involved 12 healthy premenopausal women who consumed soy protein supplements for 100 days. Compared with the control diet, soy isoflavone proved to have cancer-treating effects.
Eighty percent of your immune system is housed in your gut, so it makes perfect sense that research has confirmed probiotic supplementation can stop tumor growth. In addition to supporting your immunity to disease, research has also shown that probiotics can improve digestive function, aid mineral absorption and heal leaky gut syndrome — all contributing to cancer prevention!
The History of Tempeh
On the island of Java, in Indonesia, tempeh is a stable source of protein. The soybean has been recognized in Java since the 12th to 13th century. The discovery of tempeh is connected to tofu production in Java. In the 17th century, the Chinese introduced the tofu-making industry in Java. According to legend, tempeh was discovered accidentally when discarded soybean residue caught the spores and grew a certain whitish fungi that was found to be edible.
To prepare tempeh, whole soybeans are softened by soaking them and then removing the outside covers; then it is partly cooked. A milk acidulent, usually vinegar, is sometimes added to tempeh to lower the pH; this creates a better environment for mold growth. A fermentation starter that contains the spores of fungus Rhizopus oligosporus or Rhizopus oryzae is then mixed in to the softened soybeans. The beans are spread into a thin layer and are left to ferment for 24 to 36 hours at a temperature of around 86 degrees. Typically, the beans are then knitted together by a mat of white mycelium, filaments.
How to Use Tempeh
Tempeh is available to purchase at your local health food store. You may notice that some packages of tempeh include beans that have a white, feathery fluff growing on them, and this is totally normal and safe to eat. Tempeh can be stored in the refrigerator when eaten within a week or so, and it freezes well for later use.
You can eat tempeh raw or by boiling it and eating it with miso or soy sauce. It can also be used as a substitute for meat in any meal. It's easy and fun to cook with tempeh because it absorbs other flavors quickly; plus it's delicious — with a mild and nutty flavor. When cooking with tempeh, you can crumble it, slice it or cube it. Cooked tempeh can be eaten alone or used in chili, stir frys, soups, salads, sandwiches and stews.
Tempeh Recipes
For people who don't eat meat, or want to have a meat-less day, tempeh is an excellent option that is still high in protein. That's why I recommend you try adding tempeh to my Slow Cooker Bison Chili Recipe. You can swap out the bison and use tempeh instead, or use less bison and add tempeh as well.
Because tempeh easily crumbles, it would be the perfect addition or substitute for my Taco Salad Recipe and my Sloppy Joe's Recipe.
It also makes a great base in place of beef in my Spaghetti Squash with Red Sauce Recipe. You will love how tempeh absorbs the flavors of garlic, basil and oregano in this dish. It's the perfect meatless (and healthy) option!
Possible Tempeh Side Effects
If you are new to eating fermented foods, take it slow at first — otherwise you may get a stomachache. Start by eating about a cup of tempeh.
If you have a history of estrogen-receptor positive breast cancer, avoid eating tempeh because it can elevate levels of estrogen and trigger breast cell reproduction. The research on this issue is mixed, but until there is a clear answer regarding tempeh's ability to accelerate the causes of breast cancer when eaten in excessive amounts, it is safer to avoid the food altogether.

Kathryn Sargent has been the tailor on everyone's tongues this year. As well as garnering attention for her bespoke garments, she made history in April by becoming the first woman to launch her own store on Savile Row, which is where we meet – a haven from the day's blazing sun.
Much like her Brook Street boutique, 37 Savile Row is inviting, bright and relaxed; two cutting tables sit in the window, on view to passersby – while a photographic display documents the bespoke tailoring process. Kathryn is warm and laid-back; her calm Leeds lilt is a welcome sound in Mayfair. I wonder if she's surprised at how long it has taken for her to get here – particularly as a woman. "It doesn't surprise me at all. Bespoke businesses don't open up every day. The last one, 10 years before me, was Richard Anderson." She explains that the lengthy learning process means only a few reach that level. "New businesses don't open in this trade because it takes such a long time to learn. You've got to learn to cut, which is five years at least; then you need the experience. You've got to know the industry and you have to understand the business model."
The likelihood of even the most experienced cutters starting their own businesses is slim. "The odds are stacked against you, I think. Even Richard (Anderson) setting up his own company – it's not an easy thing to do, even as a man. To go through all the training and then to open a business… I respect and admire him greatly for what he's done, because you're not just making a suit. You can be a great cutter, but can you be a businessperson as well?"
But of course, Kathryn is aware of the lack of female tailors on the Row, and the historic difficulties for women working in this industry. "Perhaps," she suggests, "some businesses wouldn't have supported women in client-facing roles and taken the risk to put the investment in women, when they could go and have children. Who would look after the clients?"
But there have been big changes in recent years – and Kathryn believes that the industry will only become more diverse. "Fortunately, there's more women in cutting roles now, being trained in the businesses," she says. "There will probably be more women – there's been a massive change in the last 20 years – the style of the business is so much more open."
Kathryn was born in Leeds, to parents that embodied sartorial elegance. "Even though they didn't have a lot of money, my mum and dad have always taken great care in putting their outfits together," she says. Kathryn thinks that these values had an impact on her interest in tailoring over the years. "I never saw my dad wearing jeans – he wore suits constantly. Looking back now, I can see that must have had a really big influence on me."
Moving to London to attend fashion college, Kathryn was the only student of 60 interested in tailoring. "Tailoring wasn't very fashionable," she explains. "It was the mid-90s and it was much more about casual wear." But Kathryn was "a bit of a mod – I used to wear tailored stuff myself." That influence, alongside figures like Michael Caine, Paul Weller and James Bond, played a significant part in Kathryn's aesthetic trajectory. Sensing her affinity with the art of tailoring, a lecturer asked if she had been to Savile Row. "The immediate impact of some of the clothes in the window… I'd never seen anything like it."
Wanting hands-on experience, Kathryn started knocking on doors, and was offered work experience at Denman and Goddard – a small tailors on New Burlington Street. "I was with them for almost a year. I was there more than I was at college in my final year." Shadowing tailors and cutters, Kathryn began learning her trade, and crafting her own tailored garments.
With a desire to work on the Row, Kathryn was advised to move to a larger house. According to Kathryn, Denman and Goddard introduced her to Gieves and Hawkes. "They interviewed me and I got a job – before I even graduated." Her graduate collection was praised and garnered the aspiring tailor a prestigious award – presented by Jeff Banks, now Kathryn's Savile Row neighbour.
Savile Row was in the process of rejuvenation during this time, thanks to refreshing outlooks from Richard James and Ozwald Boateng. "I wanted to be like that, I loved it," remembers Kathryn fondly. "I just thought the two of them were really inspiring – using colour and doing things in a contemporary way, and taking tailoring to another level."
She says that there was resistance towards the new school tailors from the more traditional institutions in the area. "Richard James said that when he first opened here, it wasn't well received at all. I think it's the shock of the new," she says. "I think some of the old guard wondered what the hell they were doing. But there was a demand for it." Kathryn says that now, the majority of Savile Row's tailors have accepted the need for change. "Savile Row has existed for over 200 years and will continue to exist. But the way we work and communicate with our clients is different, and the pieces we make are different. It's becoming less classical and more interesting."
She says that despite the obvious rivalries between houses over the years, they have learnt that Savile Row is greater than the sum of its parts. "Even though we're in competition with each other, we realise that we're working together for the greater cause, to promote what we do. When the Savile Row Bespoke Association was formed around 12 years ago, I think the businesses realised that together, we're a much stronger force than separately."
Kathryn spent 15 years at Gieves and Hawkes; at first, she was learning and honing her limited skills, but became ever more immersed in the craft and community that she had grown to love. "You're in the heart of it, surrounded by these amazing craftspeople. I've built some great friendships and connections here. I just shadowed them, watched them – I came in morning, noon and night and learnt as much as I could." By the time she left Gieves and Hawkes, Kathryn had graduated to head cutter – the first ever female to do so.
Describing her tailoring as "free and artisan," Kathryn refuses to be pigeonholed into a particular style. "I don't restrict myself – I work very much with the individuals. It's more about personal brand consultation and making something unique for the individual." She says she is influenced by "the fabrics, the new collections coming out twice a year and new technology…"; but her primary inspiration is derived from the clients themselves. "I'm interested in people and what makes them tick – their lifestyle and how they wear their clothes."
Despite the dominance of ready-to-wear, Kathryn believes that bespoke tailoring still has a relevance in our lives – and fits into the mindset many of us have today. "I think there's a big trend towards personalisation, individualisation. The idea of bespoke is actually quite contemporary, because we are all individualising our lives – from personal trainers to how you have your apartment; how you live your lifestyle or how you work; everyone has this flexibility and the idea of 'bespoke' in their lives."
Unusually, Kathryn's client base is fairly equally split between male and female – a conscious decision on her part. "It's very nicely balanced. We're close to 50 per cent women now," she says. Is the rise in women shopping on the Row related to Kathryn's presence? "Yes, in some way. There is also more knowledge about bespoke tailoring – and the idea of having something made for you that will complement, fit and last you," she says. She finds making for women a stimulating process. "I enjoy it immensely. There are certain rules with menswear – whereas with women, there are no guidelines." As women have not historically been served on Savile Row, there is no template for women's tailoring. "There's no formula for a woman to wear a suit, which is interesting. It's about using your eye to figure out what works best for the individual."
Being one of the sole tailors to make for women, I ask if London Fashion Week, which takes place this month, is on her radar. "To actually put on a catwalk show, that's me saying that I'm a designer – that's my brand, that's my thing. But I'm a tailor." She says there is potential for her to bring out a collection – but it's not her main goal. "If I did develop a small offering of women's capsule wardrobe pieces, then I'd certainly like to do something with London Fashion Week. But at this moment in time, the focus is bespoke."
For Kathryn, the plan is to take it one step at a time. "I've launched a made to measure service, where we can make you a personalised suit but the quality is more like a ready-to-wear garment – and the price point is much more accessible." Her initial deal with The Crown Estate puts her on Savile Row until the end of the season; but Kathryn is open to further opportunities here. "I've really enjoyed this summer and being part of the Row again," she says. "I don't want to be hidden away; but at the same time, I want to make sure we grow in an organic, manageable way. I'm a small step person, but I do want to grow my business."
Kathryn's ambition is to have longevity. "I want to grow my team, and I want to work for the rest of my life. I want to take it forward. I've become a self-appointed spokesperson for bespoke – and I want to be in that space." She says that furthering the business will require thoughtful evolution. "I want to look after it and nurture it in a healthy way, and present it and still be fresh. We're constantly thinking about what we can do, our point of difference and how relevant it can be. I'm not the sort of person to sit still."

We had two core requirements: We wanted a
location-independent direct access to diagnostic images and process data of all connected
institutions and their respective IT systems.
And we wanted a global work list that enables
doctors to work with their standard RIS using
not only clinical reports of their own site, but
to virtually zoom into all other sites' systems
and work there without having to leave their
own application.
The whitepaper "Teleradiology", which was presented by the European Society of Radiology (ESR) in 2006, essentially outlined a
blueprint as to how this can be implemented based on IHE profiles.
However, at the time, there was no one on the market who could implement this, so the hospital holding started a process in 2009: We
modelled a system and looked for industry partners that were willing
to implement it. At the end there were only two contenders. GE was
awarded the contract.
As we didn't want to copy images or clinical reports, but wanted
to implement a direct access, we needed streaming technologies,
which were available. However, what was needed as part of the project was the implementation of all RIS transactions in a 100 per cent
web-based system. Another challenge was that the system had to
be able to process different terminologies. We can't tell our referring
physicians how to work. That's why we had to develop a terminology
system that uses RSNA RadLex as ontology that can consistently
adopt the best features of other terminology systems.
Let's take a primary care facility with an ordinary radiologist withouthis own CT. For the diagnostic assessment of a trauma this radiolo-gist would like a brain scan. He requests this as well as a chest X-rayin his system. The middleware detects that parts of the order mustbe performed elsewhere, splits the order, and assigns the differentcomponents of the job to each respective lo-cation where they can be performed. Overall,the architecture is very well suited to implementdecentralised trauma networks, as they are pre-dominantly used in countries with large areasand low population. Due to streaming technol-ogy multiple doctors can participate in the de-cision-making process regardless of where thepatient is presently located. And after a patienthas been transferred, the respective doctorscan continue working exactly at the point wheretreatment stopped before the transfer. Thisincreases productivity, but above all, it is ofenormous value for the patient.
A second specific example is oncological care, in which non-hospital
doctors and hospitals work closely together. This is facilitated by the
cross-institutional platform, especially because the doctor who treats
a patient face to face can immediately access all relevant medical results, including images. Finally, we also have traditional teleradiology
scenarios such as telediagnosis at night and on weekends. For this
we use the global work list that allows the diagnosis directly in the
connected systems, regardless of the radiologist's whereabouts. The
doctor can also access his individual voice profiles from any location
and use it for any connected RIS.
Overall, in view of the increasingly serious lack of doctors, I think the
discussion should be foremost about quality of care. And hopefully
we will soon be able to provide figures on that. In a scientific evaluation supported by the Federal Ministry of Health, we will examine
whether therapy costs are reduced because doctors have better access to clinically relevant findings, among other things.

Tiger @ the ABQ Zoo, Oct. 2013
I'm so happy this week is over. It was a long and difficult week, due to the absence of a co-worker who was quite sick this week with the flu (?) or something. So, I've planned to go to Costco & get my flu shot today. They are offering it for $14.99, which seems to be a good bargain. I only hope they aren't out of it.
My statistics/probabilities class started this week, and the instructor seems to be a very nice person. He was late to class, but we all discovered that he works in Santa Fe during the day & comes home to Albuquerque & teaches our class in the evenings, which explains his late arrival. Received my first homework assignment, which I'll be working on tonight. My forensic anthropology class starts on the 20th....someone I know has taken this class & said it was great, so I have high expectations. Unfortunately, I didn't get the info on what materials (like books & stuff) until this week. Luckily it's fairly cheap through Amazon.
Suldog posed 11 questions that I shall attempt to answer:
Have you ever voluntarily put anything up your nose aside from drugs?
~No, although I had to remove various objects from my kids noses. I always wondered why they believe this is an acceptable storage place for buttons, marbles, and small action figures. You've got a pocket, use it!
Is it still there?
~No, and I have the Dr receipts to prove it.
How many real teeth (that is, not store bought) do you have in your mouth?
~28, I had my wisdom teeth removed one at a time to maximize the pain.
If you could take any two things on the planet and staple them together, what would they be?
~Well, I enjoyed Ami's answer to this one, so I'll go with that. I still don't understand why he would have anything to do with Kim Jong Un. What a sleaze bag.
Do you think plants can hear you think?
~Yes....that's why I make all my plants live outside.
How many rocks are in your house?
~The only rocks I have are the ones the dogs sometimes drag in (teeny ones stuck in their paw pads). I think rocks can read thoughts, so like plants, I make them live outside.
If I asked you to shove a toy surprise up my ass and call me Crackerjack, would you compare and contrast Napoleon's march on Moscow with Ritchie Blackmore's guitar solo on Highway Star?
~I can't answer this question. It's waaay too much like school, and I'm not getting any credit, so to hell with it......
Why are you still reading this?
Do you think it's going to get better?
~How will we know unless we continue? Follow the pursuit of the silly, I say.....
Why is a kumquat not entirely unlike a porcupine?
~They are both squishy on the inside...
When do you think the world will end?
~According the the Maya, it has already.....personally I'm enjoying the illusion of the life I'm currently experiencing.

Hi Everyone!
Welcome to The Sweet Scene Blog: a one stop shop of everything that will give you an idea of who I am.
Here, I will be blogging about healthy eats: recipes and restaurant reviews (organic, wholesome and delicious), my fashion interests and life's happenings around my beloved city of Boston and all things in between.
For my first post, I will be bringing you something very easy, organic, and delicious! All you need is 20 minutes and the following ingredients!
First we want to pre-heat our oven to 320 degrees Fahrenheit.
In a mixing bowl, combine 2 cups rolled oats (I used organic, wheat free and dairy free oats), 1/4 cup organic raisins and sunflower seeds and 1/2 cup sliced almonds.
I chose to use all organic items, however, you may use whichever nuts, seeds and dry fruit you would like. Some other options could be: pumpkin seeds, walnuts or dates.
In a small sauce pan, combine: 3 tablespoons of organic maple syrup (I used organic grade A maple syrup in dark amber) and 2 tablespoons of organic coconut oil.
Most of the recipes I found used canola oil or vegetable oil, but I decided on a better option.
Coconut oil is a great alternative because it has wholesome and beneficial fatty acids, is heart healthy and boosts your immune system.
You can also add a pinch or two of salt and a dash of cinnamon for extra flavor if you'd like, but it isn't mandatory.
Let the liquid mixture boil for about 5 minutes (or until the coconut oil melts into the mixture), while stirring continuously.
Combine the liquid mixture to your dry ingredients and stir them all together.
In a baking dish lined with parchment paper, add your granola while evenly spreading it out in the dish. This will allow the whole thing to crisp up nicely. As an added punch of flavor, I added a few dashes of cinnamon on top.
Pop it into our pre-heated oven for about 10 minutes. Take it out of the oven to give it a quick stir. We want to make sure all of the granola is cooking evenly and that the top isn't burning. (you will also notice that your raisins have puffed up. Do not panic, the sweet flavors are activating within them!)
Allow the granola to cook for another 10 minutes and then remove from the oven. Set it aside and let it cool. (you will see that the raisins have shriveled back up to it's normal, pruney raisin state)
Then once cooled down, you can add it to your container of choice. I put mine in a mason jar.
You can use your healthy and wholesome granola as a cereal for your home-made Almond milk (recipe coming soon!), or on top of yogurt. You can even snack on it all by itself!
I hope you enjoyed this quick, easy and healthfully delicious recipe! Please check back for more upcoming recipes!
Next up: Home made Almond Milk.

Yeah, the under-bumper panel and left side front wheel well lining were a little loose, but I screwed them all back together and it didn't help the clunk. Don't worry, I'll chase this sucker down eventually!
Is it possable that you have a little autcross cone damage? Look for anything that might have been kicked lose by running over a cone.
I piked up a cone and melted it into the side of one of my front rims once. I also know Paul in his red ///MRoadster also knocked lose the lower front plastic cover under the car after hitting a cone.

Just scroll down for the upbeat stuff. :-)
It's been awhile since I've had to grapple with glitches. One such glitch is my not-working driver for my scanner. Ouch!
I have tried several times to get it working again with downloads of new drivers. So maybe it's time for another scanner?
I got my trusty Microtek 4800 a long time ago, and really like it. It works for me. At least it used to! Now to search for other kinds OR try to get the driver working. Last time this happened, I spent about two days getting it to work again, which is a major waste of time.
Onward and upward!
I did have another posting to put here today before I was interrupted by scanner drama.
I have photos of some wonderful handmade jewelry I got at Concave last weekend. They are both necklaces, the bottom part (no chains). One is of a dragon with an eye in it, and the other looks like some kind of round steampunk machine switch with a bit push button and lights on the side.
Here are pictures of them...
|Both pendants.
|A beautiful steampunk pendant with faux lights.
|A dragon with a dragon eye.
These are molded somehow, and very light. I like the attention to detail, the shading, and the bright additions.
They are made by Laura Reynolds, who also makes beautiful models and other art. Here is her website: Prism Studios. Thanks, Laura!

Yes, there were 14,748 homicides and manslaughters in 2010 (latest data available) in the United States and the majority (70-some percent) involved a firearm. But homicide didn't even make the 15 top leading causes of death in 2010. You're far more likely to die of heart disease, cancer, chronic respiratory disease (read: emphysema), stroke, accident, alzheimers, diabetes, the flu, suicide, chronic liver disease (that is, drinking yourself to death), hypertension (high blood pressure), parkinsons or pneumonia than to be murdered.
And as "the gun lobby" has won, crimes have declined even though population continues to increase. This shouldn't surprise anyone; the risk of being caught by the police is real, but the risk of being shot by your intended victim is real, personal and if it happens immediate. There is no judge, no jury and no appeal nor do you get to claim a notch on your stick for having "gone to the big house" for a while.
When one considers that the FBI says there were 1.3 million violent crimes in total in 2010, The Gun, and its personal ownership, has literally reduced the incidence of said violent crime by half, and in nearly all cases the weapon is not fired.
I can't believe this whole subject is even being discussed any more. It's like we're still debating whether we live in a heliocentric universe.
Hey, Bloomberg? Brady Bunch? All the rest of you hysterical gun-grabbers? We pissed all over the Constitution and our God-given rights to give your utopian
Now sit down and shut up. The grownups are talking.

Fly Casting REVup Challenge: #2
Fly Casting Basics: Straight Back, Straight Forward
Let's focus on the DIRECTION of our casting stroke. For this weeks REVup Challenge, try to work on casting straight back, and straight forward, rather than around a curve.
Head guide of Fish Bones Fly Fishing in the Cayman Islands analyzes the difference between the standard "loopy" overhead, 10-to-2 casting stroke and a slightly "side arm" stroke.
The classic overhead casting stroke tends to throw the flyline down on the backcast and forward cast, forming a large, inefficient loop.
By contrast, a slightly side arm immediately directs the fly line straight back, and then straight forward, parallel to the water surface. This produces a stealthier cast (for spooky bonefish) by turning the fly over parallel to the water, rather than kicking down at the end of the fly cast and splashing down. A straight line will also get more distance in the wind, because a tighter loop is more aerodynamic.
This is because focusing on "side arm" encourages the caster to keep his elbow down, rather than raising it on every backcast. Keeping the elbow low is a critical element to good flycasting, as it helps us track the rod-tip (and fly line) along a straight path.
Subscribe and get weekly Casting REVups to help tune your cast for summertime or your next fishing trip.

This happens only in Node-WebKit and there's no way to reproduce the error I think, it's more about graphics.
I started using a laptop recently so I tried my game in different versions. Everything is ok but not when I export to Node-WebKit, here's what happens:
This is Canvas, sprites are sharp, that's good
This is WebGL version, hero sprites and wall cracks are blurry
But I don't wanna use Canvas, WebGL is da best! Any workaround or fix for this, guys?
Video card is Geforce GT730M btw.

|Reviews for Crunch Time
| Gianna di Fiori chapter 1 . 1/30/2016
Excellent characterizations. Oh, and right on the money when it comes to our tax code.
| Cutter12 chapter 1 . 5/7/2011
Smirk,;) Charlie acting soooo normal over something about numbers. But, then again, as Charlie stated taxes have nothing to do with numbers and all about bureaucracy. I also loved Charlie's response when Don was surprised on how much he made on a job. (smirk)
| TriGemini chapter 1 . 5/13/2007
This was really amusing to read. It figures that only Charlie would get stressed out during tax season. Then again, many people do get frustrated from having to deal with it.
Enjoyed reading this.
| An-Jelly-Ca chapter 1 . 4/7/2007
lol! I loved this!
| SaJi chapter 1 . 9/22/2006
Beautiful. X3~
| Rose of Pearl chapter 1 . 9/17/2006
Hehehe. This is adorable, and you make me laugh.
| Rainbow Stevie chapter 1 . 4/20/2006
To date, this remains the best Numbers fic I've read. You got Charlie exactly right. (I can just hear him complaining about the incomprehensibility of the tax code!) Same for Don, especially "Wait a minute..." and smirking about getting to use the easy form. (that made me laugh out loud)
And I agree with earlier reviews, Alan coming in and observing the scene was a nice conclusion.
| account of no account chapter 1 . 11/24/2005
Gah! You're my favorite CSI author and now you're my favorite Numb3rs author, too...
I really enjoyed this story, especially the genial bickering between the Eppes'. Please, please write more Numb3rs fic!
| Westerman50 chapter 1 . 4/20/2005
This is just terribly funny. I can so see this happening.
| troubletwinintx chapter 1 . 4/19/2005
Very, very cute. I like all the details you put into your story. Very sharp.
| pucktofaerie chapter 1 . 4/16/2005
Hehe ~gives author a round of applause~ what a novel idea. That a math genius would have trouble with his taxes...it's priceless. No pun intended. This is truly a work of genius. Glad I get to use the EZ form too. And that my dad does my taxes. Keep up the great work and write more soon!
| PrairiedogRose chapter 1 . 4/16/2005
LOL! I kept wondering why Charlie wasn't using tax-prep software like my math genius husband(PhD, tenured professorship, and everything-and then, of course, he did. Indeed it's true-taxes have nothing to do with math as the rest of us understand it. Charming story, captured the characters nicely.
| Sabeline Mab chapter 1 . 4/15/2005
a very good, very well-written, make-you-feel-fuzzy-inside ficlet. wonderful!
| Whitnium chapter 1 . 4/15/2005
Brilliant! This is just how a lot of folks are feeling right now. And yeah, I agree with Charlie. It was created by illogical human beings. Bravo.
| Doormouse chapter 1 . 4/15/2005
Firstly I love that you made Charlie into a trekkie and I'm a little scared to say it but its
"sakkhet" not "nakkhet" at least, the way I learned it. Now for quick backpeddling and excuses as to why I know that, its the only thing I know, my grandpa was a huge trekkie and he was the only person in my family who didn't hate me. He taught me that to piss my mom off. Done with the excuses now so I shall gush for a moment about how FREAKIN' AMAZING this story is.
I mean like amazing. FINALLY someone gave charlie a personality! And its a good, fitting one. _ I shall stalk you and I had BETTER find more Numb3rs fiction and if not now, soon. _~
please don't think I am that big a geek, I am a geek, just not that bad. :\

Finding Her Way
I thought she'd bond with Sullivan really quickly since he's the closest in age to her, but I think she was threatened by him. She was so mean to him at first -- she wouldn't say his name although she said it readily in China, wouldn't look at him, wouldn't answer him when he asked her questions, and essentially, tried to act like he didn't exist. When he and I would cuddle, or he'd just sit next to me on the couch, she would cover her eyes with her hands and sob, and she even tried to push him away a couple of times. It was HEARTBREAKING for me to watch, and although I knew where she was coming from, I felt so sorry for Sullivan. He was trying very hard to be patient and to be a good big brother. As his eyes filled with tears at her rejection, I couldn't help but feel angry at her. And then I felt guilty for feeling angry. And then I felt like, what the heck have we done?!? Then I felt guilty again for even thinking that. Those emotions, coupled with severe jet lag, were hard to handle and I'm thankful those days were short-lived.
This was the first issue we worked on. We firmly told her "no" when she was not being nice to Sullivan and then lavished some love and attention on him. We played ring-around-the-rosie together, he played blocks with her and let her knock over his towers, he took a bubble bath with her and I sat with them while Sullivan read her bedtime story. He's now her best buddy and she gleefully shouts "Sunninan!" whenever he enters the room. She also gives him lots of spontaneous hugs and will place her little hand in his own as they sit side-by-side in the backseat of the car.
Finally, I clearly see the relationship that has blossomed and will continue to develop between them. I know they will someday argue like brother and sister and I will cherish those days too, (okay, maybe not cherish, but I'll accept them), knowing that they are finally comfortable with their new roles in this crazy thing we call family.
As for Scrabble, he came home Sunday evening, looking freshly bathed and groomed (thank you Lori!). He was beyond happy to see his boys! He sensed right away that Oakley was terrified of him and he kept his distance, never once approaching her, jumping on her, trying to kiss her, or even investigate. Despite his impeccable manners, she screamed bloody murder, hoisted her legs up as far as possible and squeezed her eyes shut every time she saw him. I know that at the orphanage she had no exposure to animals and I knew that she was scared of dogs because she cried in China the few times we happened upon one. But I had no idea she would react to Scrabble this way. She shook uncontrollably and was genuinely terrified. She did this for a few days, but after repeated assurance, after seeing the boys play with him, after hearing us all tell her what a good dog he was, she finally began to watch him wearily without shuddering or screaming. She whimpered for days anytime he came near her, but even that, too, has pretty much subsided. And this morning, she actually reached out and petted him (ever so briefly) on her own initiative -- great strides for one brave little girl.
I guess I owe Hagan $5. He bet me that she would be okay with Scrabble by the end of the week. I should have had more faith in our little girl -- I've seen first-hand the obstacles she has already overcome. I will continue to claim that jetlag temporarily skewed my reasoning. That's my story and I'm sticking to it!
Oakley is finding her way in our family dynamic and finding her way into the hearts of everyone who meets her. We love this little girl, who now taps her chest and smiles as she proudly exclaims, "Oakley Xinxiang!"

I've been following your journey to Oakley and Wow! You all have had a rollarcoaster of emotions this past week. I've been eagerly waiting for an update. Thanks for sharing your story! You all sound like such a loving family. Oakley has been blessed to have you become her mommy.

Laughing, crying, totally enthralled and can't wait to meet her. So when can I? Do you have a free day soon that I can pop in, maybe not with ALL my girls but with two? Just let me know. It's so hard to stay away! Love you!
PS Hope you got my message today

It just takes time.....for all of you! That jet lag will knock you on your rear end! I am so glad that Oakley is adjusting so well (and Sullivan - God love him) what an incredible brother he is!!!
I can't wait to meet Oakley!!!
Love you
- June 15, 2007 at 10:09 PM
LOVE the picture of Oakley and Mamaw...I don't know who is smiling bigger :)
- June 16, 2007 at 2:07 AM
I am SOOOO relieved things are going smoother. Sullivan is pretty amazing too to have hung in there!
Not surprised that the jetlag kncked you on your derriere. You spent 2 weeks with your internal clock 12 hours upside down and then came home and switched it again.
Are you still having the Crop on the 29th or will you postpone it until life settles down a little more?
- June 16, 2007 at 7:07 AM
I can't wait to meet her! She's so cute and funny!

We experienced that same kinds of things. It just takes time.
Sullivan is a trooper. Keaton was the same way-wanting to hug and be best buddies....Mia tended to push him away but now all is well.
Your pictures are beautiful !
It only gets better and better....
- June 16, 2007 at 7:40 AM
I miss you so much, but it is so good to see you with your new family. I can tell they love you very much.
I also live in a home with three brothers. My best advice.. Remember your a princess, and it will take no time to get those brothers wrapped around your little finger. I love my brothers so much, they will do almost anything for me.
We will be in Lexington around August 1. I hope we can get together. I can not wait to see you.
God has been good to us!!
Your best friend forever,
Caeleigh Whitt

Yes - Oakley is an amazing little girl and so brave. I am just SO PROUD of Sullivan and his tenacity to see this through. We (Joanna and I) were almost in tears seeing him a little sad. Good Lord, I'm glad things are getting better with the dog... I think that was the hardest thing for us, too. Jet lag aside... I think your reasoning was just fine. It's just SO HARD to adjust to 100 things at once, and I think you handled it all very well. This is the hardest - best thing - you will ever experience in your life. Remember - you said it yourself.. otherwise, who would ever do it again? (and again...)
We love you all!
- June 16, 2007 at 1:58 PM
So glad she is doing well! I would love to see a packing list when you get around to it. Don't worry about getting it out right away, I know you are busy and tired! But whenever you have time, it will be greatly appreciated. :)

Oh what cute pictures! She is darling. I'm so glad you are all doing well and she is getting better with your son and dog. Our AnnaClaire was terrified of our springer spaniel, Maggie, at first as well. It took a few days, but now they are the best of friends!
She's beautiful and I'm so glad she's enjoying her family!!! I love all those sweet smiles!
- June 17, 2007 at 9:18 PM
Okay Curd Family---
I am ready for a FAMILY PHOTO....I will gladly come and take one, anytime!!! Your blog is missing this one thing. Still amazed by the entire process and oh so happy Oakley now adores Sullivan, your littlest man.
Hope to see you soon,

Oh Jana, what a beautiful post. It is so good to see Oakley's adjustment process and how far she is coming along (and your boys, too!) You're such a good mommy! Your blog really encourages me and gives me insight on what to expect in our journey--though I know everyone's is different!
Thank you for sharing your heart!

Armand de Brignac's Blanc de Noirs Assemblage Two, aka A2, Jay Z's latest Champagne is to sell for a cool $850 (£680) a bottle.
It will be available in the U.S. from the 18th April. The Champagne is made from Pinot Noir grapes picked from the 2008, 2009, and 2010 vintages.
Only 2,333 bottles will ever be produced and each will have a discreet label on the back with its number stamped on it. Numbering the A2 bottles responds to a demand from collectors.
"We hadn't thought about numbering them originally. But customers and collectors were requesting specific numbers: 888, or their birth date," the brand's CEO Sebastien Besson said. "We anticipate they may only be available for a few months."

Much like last week's entry, this one definitely contains very adult themes — no pictures or animations this time though, so it is work-safe! The title is a little misleading, but you'll have to read the entire story if you want to find out why. If I disappear from the Internet for a few days after publishing this, it's because I've gone to hide in a corner, whereupon I will be blushing like a schoolgirl that's just accidentally touched a boy's willy. If you want more Too Much Information (TMI) stories head over to Lilu's blog — but my story's probably far more embarrassing than any of theirs.
The hotel room itself was nice enough, functional. A king-size bed: a little firm, but good back-support would be ideal for the kind of weekend we had planned.
It was all going so well until she pulled out the tube of lube.
'It's time, Seb.'
Time for what? My mind was racing, desperately trying to work out what I'd agreed to. Was this another case of me forgetting the little details? Women are so good at remembering. Had I agreed to do something and then conveniently filed it into the 'Nag Me So That I Remember' compartment of my mind?
She shifted her weight. She must've noticed my hesitation. I'd been very, very keen so far to try anything and everything — so had she! — but now I was sitting on the bed, staring at the tube she held in her hand. There was an impish grin on her face. An impatient-looking grin.
'Ohhh…!' I still hadn't a clue but, by now, I'd learnt to just go with it, be decisive — there's a big difference between rushing out at the last moment to buy your girlfriend a birthday present and actually forgetting her birthday.
'Right… hand it over then!'
[I'm struggling to write the story at this point, but I'll continue on... -S]
I squirted a little lube onto my hand. Cold, slimy. What was I meant to do? Just rub it on? Sure, I can do that… On it went. Slippery. A little chilly too — menthol? Wow, my nervousness slipping away, this was going to be wild!
She sat back onto me — the Asian Cowgirl (don't click!), apparently – and… sure enough, the lube helped; a bit too much, if you know what I mean, boys. Before I know it, she's bouncing around like a maniac, my biceps pumping like pistons. Faster, faster, DEEPER – penetration has never been this easy! In the heat of the moment I decide to go for one of my favourite moves, the back-breaking whip-it-all-the-way-out-and-then-thrust-back-in-even-deeper. I arch my back and push her upwards, escaping for just a moment. We take a collective breath and she grins at me over her shoulder. This is the run-up to the finishing line we've got to get it right. I pull down on her hips and thrust upwards.
BANG! Back in I go. But wait a second… this feels different. Really different. Tighter.
'FUCK, Sebastian!'
I withdraw quicker than the head of a terrified turtle.
'Shit, wrong hole! Er… not shit, I mean… er… DAMN!'
That was the end of that. Ironically, the lube was actually purchased with that purpose in mind! I think she'd anticipated a bit more warning and preparation. The lube went back into the bedside table drawer, never to be seen again…
But not the end of the story! Now the bad bit…
[Deep breaths, Sebastian... deep breaths...-S]
We're in the shower now. It's been two days since the incident and I'd all but forgotten about it. Heat of the moment. Controlling your penis isn't easy at the best of times, especially not the tip of it, 8 inches away from the nearest cluster of muscles. Water under the bridge. What happens in the bedroom stays in the bedroom. Obviously though she hadn't forgotten…
I finish rubbing the soap into her skin and rinse her off with the shower head, with a little teasing of course. I turn around.
'My turn. Do me!' So she rubs shower gel into my back, my shoulders, my torso. It's slippery and soft and warm and wet. Her hands work their way down over my stomach to my hips and then she teases me with the soap, her hands, the shower's jets of water. I'm getting quite into it when all of a sudden, out of fucking nowhere:
POP! Finger up ass. All the way up. My last virginity, taken ruthlessly and without consent. At least she'd lubed her finger first.
