Vogue Knitting Fall 2012 30th Anniversary Issue
I know I have said this before, but I am always excited when the new issue of VK is about to hit the news stands. The sneak peek is up on the Vogue Knitting Website. This is the 30th anniversary issue and it looks fabulous!
My sweater, the "Striped Turtleneck" is part of the Wanderlust Collection. The sweater is a short sleeve standard fitting turtleneck with a mesh top, eyelet band, and center cable. The yarn is the lovely and soft Brae Tweed by Knit one, Crochet Too. The yarn is smooth and has a nice drape, but still shows stitch definition and cables nicely. I love the heathered colors they chose. The weight is such that you could wear the sweater by itself in the autumn, and layer it for the winter. It is a relatively quick knit that could be finished just in time for the cooler days ahead.
What is on your needles now? Are you knitting with an eye towards the fall, or you enjoying crisp cotton and silk as the temperatures are still so high? Please share; I love your stories!

Optimal Outcome Part 2
I hope everyone is enjoying their summers. It is so hot around here, and I am still pulling out my shawl from time to time- in the air conditioning, not outside. :)
I just wanted to share another tip that I recently started to implement. Anything to make our finished work look better!
As I mentioned in this post, I am a row counter. I also am a locking stitch marker addict (more on that later!) and use them religiously to keep track of increases and decreases.
|Clover Markers
|Knit PicksMarkers
Does that seem like too much effort? Maybe, but nothing is worse than trying to backtrack and figure out how to make 2 pieces match later. Trying to count rows to match shaping on dark or intricate fabric is so hard.
I used to place my markers at the beginning of an increase or decrease row.
|The more shaping, the further in you need to go to find an unbroken column of stitches
If you look at a piece that has shaping elements- decreases, bind offs, or increases, such as a waist, underarm or collar, you will notice that it is jagged or slanted and hard to tell later where the adjoining row begins.
I now place my row marker about 10 sts in from the edge, on each shaping row. This way, as I continue to shape the piece, I can isolate a column of stitches far enough away from the edge that I can keep track of rows easily.
See how the straight line of markers is easier to count.
So simple, but such a time saver later. What do you do to make sure your pieces match?

A Knitter's Daydream
Nantucket Island is the epitome of an American needlework paradise. Nantucket is historically rich with traditions in crafts such as basketweaving, knitting, rug hooking, and needlepoint. It is no wonder that needlework legends Claire Murray and Erica Wilson chose to open their successful businesses on this gorgeous island. From the scent of the salty air intermingled with the fragrance of abundant cottage garden flowers, to the breath taking views of the turbulent Atlantic Ocean, Nantucket is singularly inspirational. I would love to be there right now, relaxing and pulling my knitting project out of my bag ...

Rib and Bobble Vest, VK Early Fall 2012
The Vogue Knitting Magazine Early Fall 2012 preview is now online. I am always excited to get my first glimpse of a new issue, and this issue has some lovely pieces that would make great summertime knitting projects.
|VK Early Fall 2012
I designed and knitted Garment # 21, the "Rib and Bobble" vest. This vest is really a simple knit as there is minimal shaping, and the seed stitch edgings are knit at the same time as the vest, so there is almost no finishing at the end of the project. Much of the vest is knit in stockinette which is perfect for an "on the go" project. The waist area ribbed section looks far more complicated than it really is! The yarn I used was Blue Sky Alpacas Sportweight, and it is so soft.

My vest is shown as part of a feature on "twin sets" and it is paired with a turtleneck designed by the brilliant and multi -talented Lori Steinberg. I love her juxtaposition of delicate and bold geometric openwork patterns. I always find that "longer" short sleeve length to be very flattering, and I think that the ribbed turtleneck provides a nice contrast to the airy lace.
|#24 Lace Turtleneck Vogue Knitting Early Fall 2012, photo by Rose Callahan
Don't be afraid of the bobbles. They are not difficult, and add such wonderful texture. I used my favorite variation in this pattern- really more of a popcorn than a bobble. I find this variation is the easiest for most knitters as the bobble is completed immediately instead of on the next row. Because the loops are pulled over each other one at a time, it is easier than trying to knit through 5 loops at once.
As much as I love to knit heavy, complicated, stranded wool sweaters, I like to have a lighter project to work on during the summer. Vests, like tank tops are great multi- season wardrobe boosters. They are quick to knit, use relatively little yarn, and are portable to knit. Perfect for those stolen minutes at the beach or pool!
What are you knitting this summer? Please share- I'd love to hear!

Optimal outcome - Knitting Pieces that Match
Sometimes it is the easiest things that make a knitted project successful.
Have you ever tried to sew 2 pieces of knitted fabric together only to find that they don't match, or picked up a piece of knitting and been unable to figure out where you left off? Yikes.
I am a confirmed row counter. Logically, it is easier to mirror the shaping on the back and front of a garment if you start decreasing or increasing on the same row. The same goes for pattern elements like cables. Keeping track of where you are is important enough in an easy pattern, but is imperative in a more complex one. And, trust me, "eyeballing" your work in progress will never give you a perfect measurement!
|Unfinished Dale of Norway sweater . The white stitches on the left are "row counting" stitches.
When I first started to knit, I remember using bulky cylinders with rotating numbers that fit on to the ends of straight needles. The objective was to advance the number 1 time each time you completed a row. The problem was, I could never remember whether or not I had actually turned the wheel at the end of the previous row! And, I could never get used to the feeling of having something hanging from the end of my needles. The constant uncertainty and the fact that I have not knit with straight needles in years led me to try other methods. I have a very methodical friend who carries a memo pad and writes tally marks down for each row. I know knitters who swear by the invention of another friend, the row counter bracelet.*
|Basting to mark your stitch count
Simple basting works the best for me. I use a large tapestry needle and a piece of smooth mercerized cotton yarn that contrasts in color with my knitting. Cotton will usually not leave fibers behind and "shed" onto my knitting. I try to use a light color for visibility, and colorfastness. I actually often keep the basting thread in when I wet block my work, although of course I would be careful not to leave strong cotton in if my work was fuzzy, felting or delicate! I attach the yarn at the bottom of my work and use a large tapestry needle because the blunt tip helps minimize the risk of pulling and split stitches. I use the tip of my needle to count up 10 stitches, and run a stitch under the 10th stitch.
|Each line indicates a group of 10 rows
I continue in this manner until I am finished counting. When I am finished basting, I always re count to confirm that I have blocks of 10. Even though this may seem like an added step, at least I always know that the underarm will be in the same place on the front and back of a garment, and that the sleeves will be the same length. (Don't ask me how I know this!)
Since I always have a tapestry needle in my knitting bag, it is easy enough to do. And, when you unearth that unfinished object you had forgotten about(blushing!)it is much easier to continue if you know exactly where you left off. How do you keep track of your stitches?

Just in time for Mother's Day!
Happy Mother's Day everyone!
I was really excited to get a surprise in the mail the other day. It contained my copy of 60 More Quick Baby Knits, published by Sixth and Spring books.

I have 3 designs in the book. I couldn't wait to peek. I love to see how the garments look photographed, and I always love the way the pictures are styled. It takes quite a bit of time from the time I submit the garments until the books are published, so I always feel like I am looking at the sweaters for the first time. I LOVE knitting for babies,and my boys are well out of the baby stage so this project was so much fun. Baby clothes are a terrific way to try out new techniques, or new yarn without spending too much time or money. I have to say I was so pleasantly surprised with the Cascade 220 Superwash sport yarn that was used in the book, that I tried to track some down recently for another project. The colors were rich and varied, and the yarn had a smooth, almost cottony feel. None of these sweaters would ever make a baby feel "itchy". My patterns are #29 Apple Tree Sweater, #32 Parisian Cardigan, and #46 Argyle vest.
The Apple Tree sweater and the Parisian Cardigan both have some duplicate stitch embellishment, which is an easy way to liven up plain stockinette. The Parisian Cardigan has a Peter Pan collar.

The Argyle Vest is actually not constructed as a "true" argyle which is intarsia knit with bobbins. Instead the diamond pattern is made in a fair isle technique so that there are only 2 colors used in each row. Much simpler. I also deliberately placed a few plain stitches in between the front and back of the vest, so that extra stitches could be added to increase the width, without having to worry about the continuity of the argyle.

Unwound part III
Your mother/ grandmother/ yarn store owner/ Elizabeth Zimmerman was right- always make sure you have purchased enough yarn in the same dye lot…
When I looked last week at the Ravelry page about the Icarus shawl I laughed when I saw the
following sentence...
As a designer, I know how important a precise yardage
measurement is. I carefully track the yarn
that I use as I knit a project, and write down how many balls/skeins I go
through as I am working.
I am sure that most knitters reading my previous posts about running out of yarn wondered why I didn't follow that simple rule and buy enough yarn to finish my blue Icarus shawl to begin with.
Honestly, it was so long ago, I don't remember. I think I bought all the yarn that came in the "Beach Fog" colorway. I thought I checked the pattern and planned accordingly, although, at the time, I was not that experienced at lace shawl knitting. I definitely had a large tangle of unusable wool left. For whatever reason, I ran short.
Please note that the yardage in both of Interweave's printed versions is underestimated for the average knitter.
Is that what happened? I don't recall, but maybe it lets me off the hook!
|© Vogue Knitting/Rose Callahan
But, yardage can be a grey area. When I design a sweater I always knit at least one gauge swatch in stockinette, and one for each pattern that is in the garment. Sometimes I knit the swatches using more than one needle size. I make relatively substantial size swatches, and block them. So, when I account for how much yarn I use, I am accounting for the project and the swatches, as well as any mistake knitting ; ) that occurs along the way. Generally speaking, the amount of yarn I record should be generous enough for most knitters to easily finish a project.
Even so, problems still arise. More than once I have had to break into a new skein of yarn to finish a project that is only missing a few rows. That is not usually a significant problem if the yarn is sold in small skeins. But, what happens when the yarn is a lace weight thread sold only in 700 yard hanks, or a pricey yarn like cashmere? I know that when I designed the LILY PATTERNED MITTENS for the Vogue Knitting magazine Winter 2011/2012 issue, I literally used up every bit of the beautiful yarn* and actually unraveled my swatch to complete them. VK made mention of that fact in the printed directions.
Sometimes yarn manufacturers even repackage and change the amount of yarn put up in a skein.
So now I try to buy extra, I check pattern pages for errata, and I cross my fingers…

Unwound Part II
The story of a forlorn mess of yarn and a happy ending.
While on vacation* 4 or 5 years ago in North Myrtle Beach , South Carolina we took a drive to Pawleys Island. Despite the groaning from my boys in the backseat I naturally had an ulterior motive - a yarn store! Island Knits is a lovely store, and I was immediately smitten by the gorgeous Dream in Color Baby wool. I purchased all of the yarn they had in the colorway "Beach Fog" and it was just enough for my project. The blue and aqua hand dyed colors were the perfect reminder of a great family vacation at a beautiful shore. The shawl- Miriam L. Felton's Icarus was one of my first forays into the world of lace knitting.
©Interweave Knits
It took many false starts and a ridiculous amount of ripping and re-knitting. But, I persevered and finished much of the easily memorized pattern with in a relatively short period of time. (Sometimes I think it is good to try a new technique while on vacation because I don't usually have anything other projects with me, so I force myself to work with what I have.) Icarus is a great beginner lace pattern because it is reasonably simple and the construction becomes apparent within a short period of time. By the time I was back at home, I only had a little left to knit.
|Ball "Collapse"
I called around to all of the local stores and internet stores I knew, and none of them carried the yarn. Don't you hate that heart sinking feeling? I then went to my local yarn store to see what I could do. Sharon, the owner of CreativeKnitworks calmed me with great news. Apparently there is a way that shop owners can fulfill orders from each others inventory. Within days, and for a very reasonable cost, the yarn was on the way to me.
Now, this was a hand dyed yarn, and I knew the dye lots were not the same, but I was happy to take anything I could get.
|You may not be able to tell that there are a variety of colors in this yarn.
It didn't photograph very clearly.
The yarn ranges from blue to soft gold to violet and aqua. Lovely.
At first, this bothered me because, of course, a mismatched edge was not part of my original plan for this piece.
But, I've come to appreciate the contrast, and now even think it adds a little life to the shawl.
*Please don't think that I travel all over, buying awesome lace yarn from beautiful destinations and whipping up lovely shawls regularly. I wish. ; )
** I tried for hours to no avail to unsnarl the yarn, but it was getting frayed and felted and I finally threw in the towel.

Valuable lessons learned:
Never pull laceweight yarn from the center of a skein.

A Knitter's Daydream
The Hotel Del Coronado
Sunday, April 22, 2012
A ball winder and umbrella swift have been high on my wish list for many years. Is there anything more inspiring than seeing perfect little yarn "cakes" lined up ready to become something wonderful?
I love the way yarn
streams smoothly from a center pull skein, and that the skein does not roll
around the way a ball of yarn does. Stranded knitting is also easier because
the skeins don't tangle as much.
|So beautifully wound!
When I purchased the lace weight Jaggerspun Zephyr that I am using for my Queen Silvia's wrap I was captivated by the perfectly put up skeins. I knew the white yarn would stay cleaner because there was no risk of it rolling around. I also find that intricate patterns are easier to work with a center pull skein, because the yarn comes out so evenly.
|Ready to pull center thread...
Delighted with my purchase, I quickly went to Ravelry to read all about my new yarn. ( Do you do that? I learn so much...)
Good thing I did. Ravelry is such a font of information. I stumbled onto a thread which was discussing something I now call the "ball collapse" syndrome. A center pull skein in very fine yarn unwinds well at the beginning but can deflate and tangle once the center yarn is used up. That sparked the memory from a few years ago of another fragile merino lace weight yarn that became so hopelessly tangled that I finally had to snip the yarn and purchase more. The merino fibers literally stuck together, and could not be separated with out damaging the threads. I did not have the time or patience to use any tried and true separating methods!
|You would think that I should have remembered,
especially because I clearly kept this as a warning!
Needless to say, this time I tucked the center end of yarn back in the middle and started working this shawl with the yarn end from the outside of the skein. I keep it in a Ziploc bag so it is protected as it rolls around. It is working out pretty well. But, I have to admit, every time the yarn tightens up a little bit as I am working one of the countless nupps (bobbles)in the pattern and I have to unwind the ball to keep the yarn slack, I have to restrain myself from giving into the temptation of using the yarn from the center of the skein.
Have you ever had a pull skein of fine yarn collapse?

Plan B
I always have a back up project ready for the times when I am in between designs and gift knitting, or unable to give an intricate project my full attention.
I try to select a pattern that is challenging enough to capture my interest, yet rhythmic enough to not require deep concentration. It needs to be portable, so that it complements my peripatetic lifestyle. I always enjoy selecting the bag that will house this project, because it will travel with me everywhere, and I am delighted by bags that are the ideal mix of form and function.

I find the lure of hand dyed yarns irresistible, and as Elizabeth Zimmermann famously put forth in A Knitters Almanac, a shawl is perfect vacation knitting. Fetching triangular shawls do not seem to fit into my daily wardrobe so I chose this pattern based on its shape and simplicity. I am knitting this wrap in a neutral creamy white that I can foresee wearing over formal wear year round , or as a scarf with my dress coat in the winter. I purchased the yarn, Jaggerspun Zephyr on a scenic New England vacation from the Elegant Ewe in Concord, NH. I had the foresight to bring my copy of Nancy Bush's Knitted Lace of Estonia book with me, as well as my compact selection of 24" inch circular Addi Turbos needles. I started the wrap in August, and have it ready to bring with me to every destination, from a lunch break to basketball practices to weekend trips. I work on it sporadically, and is often the case with my "travel knitting" I often knit happily while conversing, only to have to rip some of it out when I go home. It is a pleasure to work leisurely, with no deadline in sight, and I am enjoying this pattern tremendously. The bag is a tote I designed, sewed and embroidered years ago. It was packed away for ages, and when I recently came across it, I realized that it was the perfect size (7.75 x 9 inches) to tuck in my pocketbook. I have my project and yarn in a Ziploc bag for protection, and carry a crochet hook and a laminated copy I have made of the pattern. I also carry Post It notes to highlight the row I am working on. Although I have not made much progress, I always look forward to completing a row or two.
Do you have a Plan B project?

My Constant Companion
Each trip requires planning and thought. Hot weather- cotton, or washable fine wool. City vacations- simple cables, as there is always time, but rarely good light. Sporting events- rhythmic mindless patterns. And, there must, of course, be room in the bag for any knitting treasures I may be fortunate enough to unearth in the delightful new stores I discover along the way. My favorite use for the GPS, and the iPhone is scouting out both a great restaurant and a great needlework/yarn shop immediately. I have perfected the art of packing my knitting for travel.
Wouldn't this be a marvelous time for a knitting trip?

My Latest Design
The Spring/Summer 2012 issue of Vogue Knitting is available in stores and online. I love summer knits, and especially enjoy making and wearing tank tops. They are so quick to finish and I wear them all year round, on their own or under a jacket. My Lace Insert Tank, garment # 21 is part of VK's beautifully photographed "A Midsummer Knit's Dream" story. It was a surprisingly quick knit, partially because the back is plain stockinette, and also because the sweater is worked at a comfortable 21sts and 28 rows to 4"/10cm. gauge.
If you visit the Vogue Knitting site, you can preview this sweater in the VK360 window. VK 360 is an absolutely amazing video feature that shows the garments on live models and highlights every possible detail. The Lace Insert Tank looks quite different on the VK 360, as the model is wearing a solid color camisole under the sweater.
Although the lace inset may look somewhat daunting, I can assure you that it is simple enough if you break it down into "digestible" pieces. I try to stack the odds in my favor before making any sweater. I always enlarge any graph I am working on, and make a few portable copies that I can mark on with a pencil or highlighter. Highlighter tape is especially wonderful for keeping track of rows. Post-its work well too. I also use stitch markers-I prefer the rubbery bendable type- to separate pattern repeats while I knit. I also find that knitting the pattern while I am making my gauge swatch helps me understand a graph better. It always takes a little bit of practice for me before the pattern feels logical. But, the finished lace project always makes all of that practice worthwhile.
If you like my latest project, you can view it (or favorite it, or queue it!) on Ravelry.
I love to see pictures of both works in progress and finished objects. Summer will be here before we know it, and a simple tank is a great and versatile piece.

Is the Public Option retreat for real?
What the public Option retreat really means. Answer: We are not sure. We are sure that (1) Team Obama screwed up in selling their plan, (2) American voters are rejecting the pan,
(3) the The Nutroots feel betrayed.
Could it be a false retreat to lull opponents? Possible but not likely. Public Option was always a liberal Trojan Horse for single-payer Government-run healthcare, like UK and Canada have. More likely, they will use the co-op concept to get them moving in that same direction. Still, ObamaCare opponents will need to be vigilant to oppose these shape-shifting proposals.

Leonardo da Vinci is a gorgeous young Italian with nowhere to go. Ramona Elise is the mom, teacher and widow who needs him–she just doesn't know it yet.
Dating da Vinci was the first book I ever read by Malena Lott and even though she has many other books now, I asked her to share how the original Leonardo influenced her novel and indeed, her life.
I'm a huge fan of Leonardo da Vinci. Once I learned about his gifts in so many different areas (architecture, science, city planning as well as art), he became a mentor for me to be curious about life and try new things. When I had my ad agency, I named our creative planning room, The da Vinci Den.
And somewhere along the way I came up with the story about Ramona Elise (Mona Lisa) trying to find happiness as she approached the second anniversary of her husband's death. My modern version of da Vinci has all the characteristics of the real da Vinci (skilled in so many different areas) and of course very handsome as he was said to be. He's ten years younger than Ramona so it was fun to play with a May-December romance. The theme of identity and the beauty of life is important to the story. Thanks for letting me share my admiration for da Vinci!
I should add that Malena Lott is not only an author I admire, but also my publisher. In just two years she has built a growing multimedia indie, Buzz Books USA. Check out all their offerings at the website below, especially Malena's latest, Family Charms.
Thanks everyone for sharing my interest in the convergence of art and words.

I capitalized all of that because I wanted you to read it like I was yelling it at you.
This weekend, I have become more and more in love with my friends. Like, college friends are good. Great, even. But these high school people... I'm seriously obsessed with them. Literally the funniest group of humans I have ever known. (Special shout out to Ray Pierson who, under a unanimous vote, was awarded the title of our funniest friend. Today, in church, I told her that I wanted a baby, and she just nonchalantly suggested, "You should make one". So, HEY RAY!)
I can't even describe the ways in which they've helped me grow. They've saved me so many times and I owe a great deal of my happiness to them. And OH, they make me laugh!
Like that time Rachael and I watched Chase shatter the picture of Henry B. Eyring with his elbow in 9th grade seminary... Or the time Austin ordered Calamari at a restaurant in 10th grade and passed it around the table, making us all try a piece... Or when Colton invited us to go see his horses one afternoon senior year, and we all dressed in plaid and cowboy hats... Or when Rachael started calling me Courcano... Or when Carter started hanging out with us in high school and we made fun of him for going to catholic school even though he was a Mormon like the rest of us... Or when Rayo started going by Rachel (a joke in and of itself)... Or when Austin & I kidnapped Kenzie during 2 period junior year to drive to Park City and ended up watching Buffy the Vampire Slayer instead of going back to school... Or when we moved T-Hatch's car in the middle of the night at one of our sleepovers and she yelled at us in the morning... And how our friendship with T-Hatch was never the same after that... Or "The Path" behind Missy's house... Or "Stranger Pictures" at lunch, or DJ Stick Boots and canyon drive freeze outs... Or that time we were all in the same Foods II class and Missy almost failed it...
The point is that there are too many of these moments to count, each one dear to my heart. So.
Dear friends:
I know we didn't get top-of-the-class grades, I know that none of us were good at sports, and I am fully aware that we're a gossipy, GOSSIPY, clique-y bunch, but I'm seriously a fan of us. Let's be best friends forever.
Courcano/Courchkey/Crotchney/Couch/Karen Smith
P.S. Colton bear: thanks for coming home from your mish. I super love you, ya big cutie.

To the tune of $10,000 in the next 8 months.
Eek! Sounds like a lot, but we've outlined a budget that will take care of it. The toughest part for me is going to be cutting out my "flex" budget. In our previous budget we each had $100/month to spend on "whatever". For me, it had been cute things for the house, clothing, girly stuff, etc. In an effort to save, we eliminated that.
I thought it would be horrible, but when I think ahead to what we're saving for- our own home, and financial stability- it makes me feel so much better. I am SO looking forward to what our future holds, and walking by that undeniably gorgeous new handbag isn't so hard when I think about what I'm trading it for. Besides, I think my current plethora of handbags that are taking up two of those back-of-the-door bag-hanging stips, will do just fine. :)
So why am I rambling on about this on my blog? Just to give you a heads up on what's to come- Lots of Budget-friendly ideas that replace the overlooked dollar-eating items, activities, etc. I'm no expert on the subject, but hopefully my attempts to tighten the budget reins will help someone else in doing the same! Feel free to share your own ideas or $-saving finds!
Budget-friendly Idea #1- Say goodbye to Blockbuster.
- To rent a movie there you pay ~$5 for a 5-night rental. Redbox & some grocery stores offer movies for $1/day
- If you're like me, you watch a movie once and return it. I can't watch a movie more than once unless there's a large enough time gap in between that I've forgotten most of it (which happens more than I care to admit). Do you really need a movie for 5 nights? As long as you can be responsible about returning it on time, You can save ~$4 per movie.
- Say you rent 2 movies/week (average for us- sometimes it's just 1). That's a savings of $32 per month, $384 per year. Not a lot, but it's a start.
- Redbox sends Z a text message every Monday with a code for a free rental. So that means we'd save $480/year if we only rented movies on Mondays! Not bad! Of course, weekends are a more popular time to rent movies, but I don't mind cuddling up for a movie on a Monday night! You can sign up for the text messages on their website.
- If Redbox or the local grocery store doesn't have the selection you want, it's much easier to swallow $5 once in a while than the $480/year.

In this article, we will provide you with information about how to design a house in the classic and minimalistic style. Despite the fact that these home layouts are basic, you will find that there are a variety of preferences that you can add to make it exciting.
How to Design a House with Classic Style
Making your house look classic is easy. You can start by getting some classically designed furniture. It might be a bit pricier than modern designed furniture, but it will be a great investment because it'll never go out of style. This kind of furniture will reinforce the look of your home effortlessly. As for color, you can never go wrong with neutral colors like white or creme. If you want a pop of color, you can always incorporate that with accessories like throw pillows and artwork.
In terms of the kitchen, adding a nice espresso machine is another solid touch. You may want to unwind with a nice cup of coffee and nothing says classy like an espresso machine. One of the things that makes any kitchen beautiful is the presence of sunlight. Never underestimate the power of natural light. Roofing USA LLC says it can bring any room to life which is why it's important to have sufficient windows. People have even taken to installing skylights as an alternative way to bring natural light in.
How to Design a House with a Minimalist Style
Minimalist furniture can be described as plain but you can bet that it'll never go out of style. You don't need to spend a ton of cash though to achieve this look. Your home may require a few upgrades so getting pleasant furniture like this is a start. You should likewise choose furniture that will match the other areas of your house too. Much like the classic style, you can never go wrong with neutral colors. I find white to be the best because you can match anything to it and it always looks crisp and clean.
Remember that furniture placement can make or break a room. You need to place it in an ideal spot to really bring a room together. At that point you will have the opportunity to turn it into one of the most stunning rooms in your home. Make sure you have a focal point too to draw the eye in. Artwork is key. Find some cool pieces that draw people in and hold their gaze.
Here are more inspirational images for how to design a house (click the image to larger version!):

Bollywood honchos resent Thackeray's stand against JayaSeptember 9th, 2008 - 12:04 am ICT by IANS
New Delhi, Sep 8 (IANS) Bollywood filmmakers and actors Monday sharply reacted to Maharashtra Navnirman Sena chief Raj Thackeray's comments against actor and MP Jaya Bachchan, with veteran Shyam Benegal saying it was a "childish" and "silly" remark over a "light-hearted joke".Earlier in the day, Thackeray, who has been spearheading a campaign against north Indians in Maharashtra, demanded an unconditional apology from Jaya for her "anti-Marathi" utterances.
Thackeray also threatened to prevent the screening of all films and advertisements starring any of the Bachchans - Amitabh and Jaya and their son and daughter-in-law Abhishek and Aishwarya in Mumbai and whole of Maharashra.
"This is an attempt to divide the entire industry and create borders within the nation," Nafisa Ali, actor and social worker, told IANS.
Thackeray's remarks at a press conference in Mumbai Monday were in response to Jaya who on Sunday said north Indians in Maharashtra would prefer to speak in Hindi and not Marathi. She was speaking at a function to promote her son Abhishek's upcoming film "Drona".
Filmmaker Ravi Chopra whose films like "Zameer" (1975), "Baghban" (2003), "Baabul" (2006) and "Bhoothnath" (2008) starred Amitabh Bachchan said: "We are all Indians first and everything else comes secondary. Whatever Jaya Bachchan has said is not at all offensive. She was perfectly fine in her statement and this issue is completely stupid."
Veteran filmmaker Shyam Benegal echoed the same but added: "The whole thing is so silly and childish. There should be some sense of humour. It was a kind of ligh-hearted joke and I don't understand why such strained reaction came from Thackeray. Nothing serious has happened as such."
Said director Kunal Deshmukh: "Hindi is our national language and everyone is free to speak whatever language one is comfortable with."
Director Rohan Sippy whose both directorial ventures "Kuchh Naa Kaho" (2003) and "Bluffmaster" (2005) star Abhishek Bachchan was unaware about Thackeray's statement and refused to comment on it. "I haven't seen or heard what has happened, so it is not right to comment on it."
Actor and censor board head Sharmila Tagore requested the media not to hype the matter taking things in good humour. "I know Jaya very well as she is a friend. I don't think she will do anything irrelevant or silly. Lets not give this thing media hype. Such humour should be allowed and nothing as such is to be taken seriously."
This is not the first time Thackeray has pointed a finger at the Bachchans. He had earlier criticised Amitabh Bachchan for being Uttar Pradesh-centric during his campaign against north-Indians in Maharashtra.
He also questioned Bachchan's move to construct a girls school in Uttar Pradesh named after his daughter-in-law and film star Aishwarya Rai Bachchan.

Atelier Nagel in San Sebastián, Spain by Hoz Fontan Architects
September 6th, 2016 by Sumit Singhal
Article source: Hoz Fontan Architects
A three floor cubical volume is located next to a late XIX century villa. The new building is linked to the villa by means of a galvanized steel and glass-made set of stairs that allows the cast of indirect natural light not only on the villa, but also on the new atelier, marking the entrance point of both of them. The atelier is defined by a galvanized steel-made framework and by perforated slabs to allow the entrance of natural light. On the other hand, the villa´s terrace is meant to be a view-point on the garden, removing some parts of the railing by selecting the ground materials and filtering the sunlight with sunshaders, softening the transition between the inside and outside parts of the house.

Lift high the cross
Friday, February 17, 2017 - Updated: 7:00 am
The hymn "Lift High the Cross," with its familiar refrain, will be sung in many of our churches during this Lenten season. The inspiration for its composition can be found in 1 Corinthians 1:18: "For the message about the cross is foolishness to those who are perishing but to us who are being saved it is the power of God."
The first stanza of this glorious hymn expresses an invitation we are free to accept or reject. It says, "Come, Christians, follow where the Master trod …," and where was that? Across the Egyptian desert when it was safe for him as a boy and for Mary and Joseph to return to Nazareth. Once more into the desert for 40 days to prepare, after the wedding feast at Cana, for his public ministry. Around the Sea of Galilee, where he called his first apostles. Up to Jerusalem, where he would meet his destiny, walking the way of the cross. And then the triumphant walk to Emmaus.
Are we willing to walk where our Master trod? Across deserts of intense inner purification from the dissipating power of sin. If he calls us, do we have the courage to drop our nets and follow him. That means dropping selfish sensuality, egocentric ambitions and the comforts of prosperity that might result in our being possessed by our possessions. Will we be ready and willing to pray for the grace to deny ourselves and take up the crosses life puts upon our shoulders — from picayune irritations to major devastations? Do we really believe that the cross is our salvation? If the answer is yes, we may mean it when we sing: "lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim, till all the world adore his sacred name."
There is much promise in that phrase, "… follow where the Master trod." In John 8:12, we read what Jesus said to these early believers: "… I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness but will have the light of life." This one "I am" self-description of who Jesus is contains an amazing promise: If we "follow where the Master trod" (from the darkness of that 3 o'clock hour on Good Friday to the brilliance of his rising from the dead on the third day), we will leave the land of unlikeness darkened by sin and walk into the land of likeness to Father, Son and Holy Spirit, radiant with the light of life, in earth and in heaven.
This text means for us, as it meant for his first followers, that we must "walk by faith, not by sight" (2 Corinthians 5:7). Reason alone would stop us from following a crucified savior; that's why we need faith — even "the size of a mustard seed" (Matthew 17:20) — to run the race of discipleship from start to finish. Once again we can raise our voices and sing with all the saints: "Led on (our) way by this triumphant sign, the hosts of God in conquering ranks combine" (Stanza 2).
The ashes on our forehead at the beginning of Lent reveal the "seal of him who died" (Stanza 3) and the incredible paradox at the root of our faith that this Lord "once lifted on the glorious tree" and condemned to death "bought us life eternally" (Stanza 4). The price he paid defied protocol. Nothing like it had ever happened before — that out of such a vicious end could come eternal victory, and so we sing in high-pitched notes and in the softest of whispers: "Lift high the cross, the love of Christ proclaim, till all the world adore his sacred name."
Throughout this Lenten season and beyond, let us try with every celebration of the Eucharist, indeed with every tick of the clock by which our days rush to their destined end, to recall what really happened on that horrific hill, nothing short of our redemption.
Father Adrian van Kaam explained the meaning of this "glorious tree" in this excerpt from a prayer poem of his found in his beautiful book, "The Tender Farewell of Jesus,":
… You came as the defenseless babe of Bethlehem.
The lighthearted boy of Nazareth. The gentle friend of abandoned souls in Israel, the sufferer on a cross
To restore our loss of trust in God as Father who does not hover as a vulture over our dissolving life, who wants peace, not affliction, strife, who gathers us tenderly as fallen leaves from a dying tree miraculously
Restored to life.

I have this distinct feeling of being part of the life of another without being part of my own life. It is as if I have taken a secondary role and now someone else shines brighter than I because I am not going down the path of the individual but the path of another. It is an interesting sensation because the ego has shrunk and my desires take a secondary role. I am not in Colorado to further the expanse of my own life (it is as if my life has been put on hold in order to help build someone else's world with them). I am in Colorado, I have joined my brother on this road trip, so that I can be part of my brother's life and world as his new beginnings are being built. I remember sitting on an isolated nook of land jutting out onto lake Scott in Kansas and across from us we could see the lights of life whilst we were in the quiet darkness. The lives that were separate from us across the lake were laid out before me as if I was looking through the window of a two-story home. My brother alternated between sitting next to me, looking across the water, to standing in front of me pacing and rocking. This was a point in his life that was entirely focused on him, as if he was the sun. It was as if I was not there and instead I had taken a step away from all form of Being. The world that I was building for myself was not present and instead I was in a place of non-being. The experiences that I would collect would be part of something that was separate from myself, as if I was empty of identity -the self that usually occupies this vessel was left back in Texas. This is not a source of discomfort, it actually makes me feel very content to be somewhere without also being there, without building something for myself and instead helping build something for someone else. It is right now, in this moment, that I feel like I am part of the collective and not the ownmost sense of Being.
In Kansas whilst we were camping I also looked up at the dark sky many times and felt that I was dancing with this beautiful blue light -it was a sense of being present with someone far away and the silence of the single self. I feel this great sense of being bonded to many things and many people in this moment because my world is absent. Being thrown out of the world that I have invested so much in seems to only emphasize the collective Being and the destruction of the single ego. This could be connected to travel and being in a foreign place where you are an outsider and where you are always confronted with the image of the other and the strange. It is almost like the double consciousness that DuBois writes about, but it is the recognition that you are both the individual as well as a piece of another person's world.
By abandoning the self I find that I am able to be closer to those around me since my focus is not on building my own world, but in helping others create something for themselves. This bond with others in the end also helps me find a world of my own to belong to because by feeding back into the collective I am feeding into myself -it is an exchange. After this trip with my brother I feel like I can see this even more clearly and I am grateful for that. I want to be focused on and value the other more than myself because this care is ultimately a care for the individual inside of the collective. My brother keeps bringing up how the self is a lie, and whilst at one time I may not have understood the implication and the power in this idea, it has become clearer to me.
When I return back to Texas and to the life that I know very well, I want to rediscover the world and those around me. I am always afraid of building walls and not welcoming the fluidity of everything -I do not want to maintain an isolated self and instead I want to be part of the collective. To do this I need to continue asking questions and to keep track of the various expressions and gestures of Being -to listen. Perhaps there is naivety nestled in my ideas, but I only know what resonates and what does not. I feel happier as I am now, rather than what I was before -less "out in the world," and instead "part of the world."

Gold bars are tangible, small and very easy to move. So, if you buy gold bars, you can actually take advantage of one of the most effective ways to invest in gold today.
A lot of people mistakenly believe that buying gold is the same as buying bonds or stocks, or that they should invest in gold stocks instead. However, the truth is that gold holds the most value when people have it in their own personal possession. This means that the best gold investment would be to buy gold bars - and, now, you can buy them online.
Yes, just as with every other product out there nowadays, it is now possible to buy gold bars online. All you have to do is browse through various categories and look for the kind of gold bar that you would like to have. Fortunately, most of these gold bars will be very affordable. However, a lot of them might be quite expensive, too, due to the increasing demand for gold in today's day and age.
Now, because of this ever-increasing demand for gold, it might make sense to jump at the opportunity to buy gold bars online the minute you see any that you are interested in. However, it would be much more important to check whether the seller can be trusted first. To do this, just look for online testimonials or feedback about them. If you can't find any, then you might want to reconsider buying any of their products.
Shipping insurance would be another important thing to look out for when buying gold bars online. Make sure that you buy your gold bars from somebody who specifies their insurance costs. Normally, the information on this should be found on the seller's webpage, but if you they aren't there, you might want to think twice before committing yourself to their products.
Overall, though, it would be a great idea to buy gold bars online. In fact, by taking full advantage of what online marketplaces have to offer nowadays, you can get your gold bars with both ease and speed. What more could you possibly want?

I couldn't initially think of a particularly remarkable car ride – I seem to have spent much more time over the last year in trains – or on foot. But one trip was particularly beautiful. After collecting my exhibition from the gallery in Ullapool I decided to make the most of a beautiful day. The north west highlands is amongst the most dramatic scenery in Scotland – and this route took me north of Ullapool, following the coast road up to Achiltibuie, with a detour to a really beautiful secluded beach. If this were further south it would be mobbed – but there was hardly a soul about.

So, that arm workout killed...and I'm still a tad fatigued, so I did it again and can't wait to be sore again :) During spin this morning we were talking about how it seems that personal trainers these days are so full of aggression, are angry and they use a hardcore attitude to motivate their clients. We see it on TV fitness shows and on workout videos (ala Shawn T on Insanity)...I, personally, blame Jillian Michaels for that attitude but that's a whole 'nother topic. One guy today said that it's like a trainer must be aggressive and have a sleeve tattoo to be taken seriously or to be perceived as a kick a$$ trainer. Well, I definitely see this portrayed in the media but I certainly want to change that attitude! I'll never be an angry man with a sleeve tattoo but I AM an aggressive personal trainer.
Not every person that is a personal trainer wants to be the yelling, screaming, get-to-the-root-of-your-problem-crying type. Most of my current clients are older (50s+) and my goal with them (and my own personal health and fitness goal) is to "keep them upright" and moving well into their older years. It is not yelling, grunting and tattoos that is going to motivate them to keep moving, reduce their body weight and increase muscle strength, it's the healthy lifestyle and the prospect of a longer, more independent life.
So on that note: your motivational workout for the day... 10 jumping jacks followed by 10 push-ups repeat 8-10 times. Get it done fast, get it done right (butt down during your push ups! soft knees while jumping!) and feel great going into your weekend :)
http://reasonstobefit.tumblr.com/ for the motivation!)
tatoos needed to get job done?

I posted to someone else's blog that hell is other people. I think I'm gonna amend that. Hell is other people's kids.
Emily met her first bully this week. At McDonald's Play Place. She took it in stride, but I've talked about this all week and it still bothers me. Emily, I'm sure, has already forgotten.
There were only a few children at the playground when we went and they were all toddlers. Emily was probably the second youngest and the second smallest kid there. The oldest boy there had to be about two, maybe slightly older. His mother and her friend spent a good portion of the time calling out that he needed to calm down. He did need too, but it wasn't that bad.
In the toddler area they had some soft toys that looked like turtles and ladybugs. Emily loved these, but they were slightly bigger than she was ready for so she was taking her time inspecting how to climb up and ride them. Once she figured it out and went to try the older boy came over, shoved her off, and jumped on. This is where I'm proud of Emily - she just went onto the other. Again, the older boy ran over, shoved her off, and jumped on. They did this for a few rounds before Emily finally ran over to me with the most confused look on her face. After some assurance Emily was off again. And the same thing happened, over and over. First with the turtles, then the slide, the steps, the little houses, the toys, everything. The older boy even felt the need to shut the door to the toddler area and not let anyone in or out despite much pulling and screaming. Emily never got to whining or crying, but the other children did. The last straw was when Emily was playing in a house and the boy ran over, knocked her on the ground, then kicked - kicked - her by her stomach out of the house and onto the play mat. Emily ran over (still not crying) and I scooped her up and whisked her away. We left right after that. Emily might not have been bothered, but Mommy was freaked.
The thing that really bothered me was the complete lack of reaction by this boy's mother. Part of me wants to vent and holler that she didn't do anything. The other part of me wants to not be a judgmental bitch and try to acknowledge that she was probably tired, has to take care of a very active (possibly overactive) child all the time, and maybe this wasn't really bad behavior for him. Maybe she needed to pick her battles. I only saw him for an hour I can't judge what was the best thing to do for him.
I can judge what was best for Emily though and that made me want to make a big deal of pushing and hitting and kicking. I wanted to holler and tsk and be very upset so that Emily would get the idea that behavior like that is totally unacceptable. Because in my little world it is. But it wasn't my little world and it wasn't my little kid. So I resorted to the typical Hawaii-style commentary and pointedly looked at his mother while I said to Emily "That boy plays too rough, what a meany-head." She, in typical Hawaii-style, rolled her eyes. Auwe!
The real bad part about this run in with a bully is that I'm totally worried Emily is going to emulate him. Now, when she plays, I am always watching for some sign of bullishness that I need to nip in the bud quick. Instead of seeing my sweet girl going to play with another kid in the totally unaware-of-personal-space way toddlers play I see her drop-kicking her new friend into the parking lot. That sucks. It's not fair to Emily. It's not fair she had to leave cause someone else was too aggressive and it's not fair that her mother is now certain she's gonna try these new play tactics soon. She deserves the benefit of the doubt. And a safe playground.
And I blame all this on other people - and their kids! (And, okay, maybe some of my own neurosis.)

Microsoft's Phil Spencer will talk about Next Generation Gaming during a keynote at this year's Gamescom.
it will be disappointing if all MS dose is a re-messaging campaign, they need some good shocking surprises to even begin to turn things around.
I find this whole situation weird to be honest.
People didn't like what the Xbox One was doing initially so they spoke out for them to change it.
Now people are faulting the Xbox One for going "180".
If MS would of stuck to the original plan people would have hated the Xbox One.
When MS did switch things up to appease its consumers they get criticized for going 180.
Then they say well MS should of got it right the first time. Which to that arguments credit is valid yet the main issues that people didn't like with the One is gone so I would think tempers would go down yet they haven't.
Yes MS still uses a paywall yet they have always done this. Not saying that is an excuse but it isn't a shock.
Yes it is expensive for marginally less hardware(I know I will get shit for such a statement but so be it) because of the added Kinect. Yes you don't want a camera but that is a critical design in the Xbox One like it or not, and no it isn't a spying mechanism...that argument is one of the worse.
Honestly the console has little legitimate gripes. I just don't think the console in its current state deserves to be damaged like this. This is just about what the PS3 went through and now look at it.
Lastly, people wanted games that is all they ever say they want and MS gave that to them and they still hate it...I think that right there just shows that this is mob mentality at this point.
I hope they tell us more of how the 360 will interact with One.
Even if MS said Xbox One will be free that still would be a reason for sony Nazis come here and say something bad about...

one month.
today April 17th, i celebrate my first month at inquirer.net and for this id like to write some stuff that have happened that wouldn't have occurred if not for my work.
1. i met lea salonga. this has to be number one. yes, i would have the chance to watch her, and be a few seats away from the stage but talking to her and actually interview her don't happen often in life. i thought that i might have the chance to meet her years from now but God is good, He made it happen quickly.
(the following are in random order na)
2. going to embassy superclub. people close to me know that i am not a party person and i wouldnt spend my hard earn money to go to something like embassy. no, i have nothing against it. but i would prefer chats over dinner or coffee, or a movie or by simply staying at home and kwentuhan until the wee hours of the morning. but with my new work, i had to cover events taking place in embassy so i dont have a choice.
3. playing guitar heroes. thanks to alex and relly who brought me to a wii place in katipunan to actually work but before work started, play muna. im not a rockstar and as i told them, i never had the patience to learn playing the guitar. but guitar heroes is an exception. ended up playing for hours and actually wanting for more.
4. realizing that though being a journalist is a cool job, it is a tough one. if there are so many stories, which ones do you select to cover? if there is none, how do you get one? you always have to be at your best when covering events.
5. i learned that it is possible for me to function well even if i haven't got 8 hours of sleep.
6. and i guess the most important thing that happened is the realization that though it is a tough job, when you love what you do and you are passionate about it, you do it, and you do it well. for that i am very grateful to the Lord, opportunities like this don't come easily.
(the next ones, mga wala lang)
7. sitti and i have the same laptop computer.
8. bianca gonzalez is very humble and she really appreciates it when people leave comments in her blog. she's a perfect model of POSITIVISM.
9. toni gonzaga is not suplada.
10. a DJ Tiesto exists and he's famous!
11. Kopi Roti does not use a coffee machine but sticks to the traditional style of brewing coffee.
12. A lot of people are trying to take advantage of technology to create innovations and businesses which is a good thing despite the fact that some people aren't ready to accept these changes.
13. People get amazed when i hold the camera, i fix the lights, and actually interview them.
14. There are a lot of historical places in University Belt. How came I didn't knew that?
15. I've entered Yuchengco Museum. Funny is, I've been working in that building for almost a year and never have I tried to get inside.
16. I knew where Kitchie Nadal lives.
17. Because I hate my recorded voice, Karylle told me i have to learn to modulate my voice so it wouldn't sound squeeky. Up to this day, I haven't worked on it.
yun lang! more to come!
God is good, all the time. All the time, God is good.

Born in Philadelphia, Daniel Ridgway Knight began his artistic training at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts alongside Mary Cassatt and Thomas Eakins. After traveling to Paris, where he enrolled in the L'Ecole des Beaux-Arts and served an apprenticeship under Charles-Gabriel-Gleyere, the artist returned to his native state where he fought in the Union Army during the Civil War. During these difficult years Knight continued to work through his artistic practice by depicting the human emotion wrought by battle, as well as the daily realities of war itself.
Equally committed to working in a Realist and Impressionist manner, Knight was influenced by prominent members of the Impressionist milieu such as Renoir when he returned to France in the early 1870s. Embracing the potential of genre scenes as artistic subject matter, Two Women in a Landscape reflects a theme that Knight returned to repeatedly: young women, alone or in pairs, depicted in scenes of bucolic splendor. The painting touches on the significant influence of Jean-Francois Millet's peasant scenes, although in the present work, Knight has chosen to depict a moment of intimate conversation rather than focusing on the labor at hand. The serene landscape behind the two figures and the abundance of wild flowers around them heightens the scene's pastoral setting; the net cast near the figure on the left who is listening politely yet intently to her companion, lies apart from the fish that will presumably make the evening's meal. Indeed, the net, fish, and the display of flora interact to produce a wonderfully charming scene that simultaneously stands on its own while also working in harmony with its surroundings. Two Women in a Landscape is a wonderful demonstration of Knight's ability to render landscape and portraiture in an idealized manner.

TRT Options Help?
TRT Options Help?
Hi All,
I've been lurking around here for some time and I've learned a lot from you guys.
I was referred to a urologist after my total test levels came back low,257 ng/dL. (reference range: 280-800 ng/dL)
He agreed that the levels were low and we discussed some trt options. Two of which were the androgel and test shots.
It seems that he is suggesting I go the androgel route due to its easy application and "stable" levels that it provides. I know that I really do not want to go down that route due to its messy application, transference risk (i'm married) and sometimes questionable absorption rate.
I know from reading on the forum that shots broken up 2x a week (100-200mg/wk) is best to stabilize levels but he is insisting that the shots be done biweekly and in his office.
How do you guys persuade him to do a proper test shot protocol? and in the convenience of my home? Unfortunately switching docs is not an option as I am with an HMO.
If you can't switch docs, you may be painted into a corner. I'd just be assertive with him, and say "Look, I'm a big boy, I can self-inject. Just let your nurse show me how." When you say this, do NOT get in a discussion of how many times per week. Just agree with the doc on total dosage, and anything else he says. At home you can then break it down as desired, as long as you don't exceed the doc's total dosage. I would not exceed 100mg per week to start. 200 a week especially is too much as a starting dose. Sometimes less is better than more, cause if you use too much your estradiol may get too high, as well as your hematocrit.
You probably will not want to use the massive 21 or 23 gauge 1" or 1.5" needles they'll give you. Just accept them and keep your mouth shut. Then buy you're own. I use 25g 5/8". 5/8" is the minimum length for intra-muscular injections. Or you could read the info available on sub-q injections that use even smaller needles.
stay away from androgel... too expensive for long term and inconvienent. Test cypionate is the cheapest most convienent form!
Shots every 2 weeks is old school here is a link to the AACE Guildlines on page 11 it states to do shots every 7 to 10 days have him read this and get your testosterone at 200mgs/ml in a 10 ml vile. Don't start at this high dose it's crazy start with 100 mgs / wk. of 50 mg 2x's a week re test in 8 weeks if your levels are not up into the upper 1/3 of your labs range and you don't feel better up the dose 25mgs.
Starting at 200 mgs a week is very high and most of it will convert into Estradiol taking away anygood you get from going on TRT. So do this start low work your way up and test your Estradiol and try to keep it down to about 20pg/ml higher levels kills ones libido and gives you ED problems. Most men just starting are to high and getting this down before going on TRT can up your levels some 200 to 300 points.
I feel this following link applys to younger men also.
