Unlike you, I have been somewhat of a fan of the guy. I think he offered the best and most comprehensive account of consciousness as system that I've ever come across, completely undermining the Searlean case that consciousness is just some kind of bottom line phenomenon that happens to emerge from brains somehow, as if full blown, Athena from the head of Zeus! Dennett made the case that it is a complex of systems on top of systems roughly analogous to programming on computers. His model was taken by many as wrong because of the intuition we tend to have, and which Searle relies on, that consciousness is a unitary, self-justifying phenomenon. Dennett showed how that view breaks down.

I know he has become something of a crusader for atheism since but I don't pay too much attention to that stuff. Religiosity and the beliefs that sort of thing entail don't interest me from a philosophical perspective though they are interesting sociologically and psychologically, I think. The one area where such things matter in philosophy, though, would be in regard to questions of ethics and there Dennett never seems to get involved much. So I part company with him on the metaphysical question of God or no God, I guess. But his work on consciousness was, in my view, very sharp and certainly clarifying. His more recent stuff, though, seems to be much less perspicacious. Not sure to what to ascribe that. It was just a passing thought since he provided the jumping off point for your post above.

But there is no deep reason to think that (though it looks superficially to be the case).

Objectivity can be understood as the condition in which we share access to the world (those public spaces of observation and discourse) without imagining it represents some kind of bottom line foundational reality (even if there is something like that -- because, in fact, THAT is never what we have access to in any case since the objective we recognize as such is merely the shared).

Yet this is a hard notion to get hold of and so arguments for relativity (in ethics, knowledge, etc.) quickly get confused in ordinary discourse with claims of ultimate relativity. If what we know is always just a function of what we can access and having knowledge hinges on the success of the conceptual terms in which we do access our world, then there is a relativism at work at some level. But it's not a metaphysical question but a practical one. There are facts because there being these is just a condition of how we interrelate with our world. And being a fact is a function of both public observability and shared conceptualizations (the emphasis on these two dimensions of knowledge being dependent on the kind of fact at issue). But post-modernist rejection of the possibility of objectivity in fact assertion seems to me to just miss the point.

Dennett seems to be losing his sharpness in recent talks he has given by the way. Perhaps it is the aging process at work. Brains age out like everything else. Or perhaps he has just exhausted the bulk of what he was equipped to say.

I am finding renewed interest in John Dewey by the way. I gave him short shrift in my college years. Perhaps it's time to make amends. Stuart W.

I suspect it has at least something to do with intellectual fads trickling down in bastardized form into middle school, high school, and some college teaching. I'm pretty sure I know people who see it as part of their job to actively discourage belief in truth. Of course there have been skeptics and sophists and Pontius "What is truth?" Pilates around forever, but children haven't always been encouraged to think they are right (and to be ashamed to think otherwise). Fox News and co. are far more to blame, of course, than their academic enablers. I'm not a consequentialist, as I take it Dennett is. But, whatever caused what, it's worth being aware of bastardization and maybe doing more to combat it. Or so it seems to me.

All cell phone calls are recorded. There are several ways to encrypt telephone calls. One way is through software in the telephone. Since that is prevented by telephone manufacturers, an alternative has been invented. Your voice has a broad spectrum of audible waves, some of which can be called hiss. The invention uses that hiss to send encrypted messages.
The Hiss Binder is now βεινγ μανυφαcτυρεδ ιν α φαραδαξ cαγε ιν α βυνκερ ιν Κονα, Ηαωαιι. Ιτ οπερατεσ ον τηε ηυμαν ψοιcε το τρανσφορμ τηε ηισσ, τηε ηιγηεστ φρεθυενcιεσ οφ τηε ψοιcε, το εμβεδ α πρε-ρεcορδεδ σεcρετ μεσσσαγε. (Scholars who are familiar with the Greek alphabet are able to read that sentence in one minute. Members of the goon squad can download a software tool that can translate it back into Latin characters. That software tool is linked in the Summer 2010 issue of PopCryMag. It should take a goon about two days to read that one sentence, with help from a literate person of average intelligence.)
The Hiss Binder costs $60 when purchased in volumes of 50,000. The minimum order is two. Send your order to: email@example.com . The pricelist is ащаилабле фор а шасч сеттлемент оф тчрее тчоусанд долларс.
The overview of the Hiss Binder is given here. A secret message is processed on your computer. A non-secret recording is played back on the computer when you make a cell phone call. The person speaks into a microphone on the computer. The computer digitizes and encrypts the secret audio in real time. The encrypted message is processed to sound like a hiss. That sound is combined with the non-secret message as follows: the secret message is coded into a hiss-like sound and is sent out in bursts when the public words are sent over the cell phone. The loudspeaker of the computer is placed by the cell phone's microphone so that public words and the bursts of hiss are audible at the same time. The encrypted hiss only occurs when the person pronounces an s , t, or z sounds in the public words. The result is that the cell phone call sounds normal, but it contains a secret encrypted message in the hiss of the voice. When the goon squads listen to your call, they hear only an innocuous message, but the secret message is there, not as a digital code, but as bursts of hiss in the audio sound. The hiss is indistinguishable from common noise.
In the preferred embodiment, a cryptographically secured side channel is established between two cell phones. Alice talks into hur computer and Bob listens on hur computer. Alice speaks hur secret message while a public audio banter is heard over the cell phone transmission. The hiss on that transmission has bursts of the encrypted live talk of a secret nature while the rest of the audio sound is a public innocuous speech. Bob's cell phone gives its output to Bob's computer, which separates out the secret words from Alice and lets Bob hear only that part. The public banter continues in both directions and Bob can talk about hur secrets by using bursts of hiss when hur innocuous banter is sent in reply.
This conversation can use four people to have the best quality: two have innocuous banter and two people hold a secured conversation that is delivered in bursts of hiss. The people speaking the banter will linger on certain sounds so hisss is extended as long as needed. Training ssesssionssss can help the banter to prolong the hisss into lengthy timesss...ssszzz. One speaker can shush the other with glib accentuationz. Laughter can be used to mask the secret hiss packets.
Error correction would be employed. Packetization with serial numbers for each packet would be included. Check sums in each packet would allow verification of error free transmission. When a check sum fails, the packet is re-transmitted.

by Leonard Sweet published by Thomas Nelson.
Some of the best things said were in the prologue of the book. The author talks about the overemphasis on leadership in our day and the need to become 'first followers'.
"We have been told our entire lives that we should be leaders, that we need more leaders, leaders, leaders. But the truth is that the greatest way to create a movement is to be a follower and to show others how to follow. Following is the most underrated form of leadership in existence."
The author uses Jesus declaration in John 14, 'I am the way, the truth and the life…' to establish his general outline of the book. And to encourage the fact that we are followers of Jesus not man. However, the book never seems to hit its mark. I expected and was disappointed in that the author fails to really show the problem of our modern push of leadership in the church and how that 'leadership' promotion hinders in developing true followers.
The author in sharing some things regarding his pre-conversion quotes Jean-Paul Sartre who defined sin as the "systematic substitution of the abstract for the concrete." I felt this book seemed to lean more to the abstract than to the concrete.
I have read many of Leonard Sweets books and always look forward to his new ones. This was the worse one I have read. If this is the first of Sweet you have read and feel disappointed as I did, don't let that hinder you from picking up and reading some of his other books eg. 'Nudge', 'Post Modern Pilgrims' and 'Aqua Church'

WEST PALM BEACH, Florida (AP) -- Rush Limbaugh could see a deal with prosecutors in a long-running prescription fraud case collapse after authorities found a bottle of Viagra in his bag at Palm Beach International Airport. The prescription was not in his name.
Limbaugh was detained for more than three hours Monday at the airport after returning from a vacation in the Dominican Republic.
Customs officials found the Viagra in his luggage but his name was not on the prescription, said Paul Miller, a spokesman for the Palm Beach County Sheriff's Office.
Miller said the alleged violation could be a second-degree misdemeanor. The sheriff's office was investigating and will soon turn the case over to the state attorney's office, which had no immediate comment Tuesday.
Under the deal reached last month with prosecutors, Limbaugh was not to be arrested for any infraction for 18 months in exchange for authorities deferring a charge of "doctor shopping."

Downingtown, Pennsylvania's Victory Brewing Company is bringing back three of its early popular beers to celebrate its nearly 20 years of brewing. The former releases will be available on draft, beginning this month with Hop Wallop, followed by Yakima Glory in December and Ten Years Alt in January. Hop Wallop Imperial IPA (8.5% abv) first debuted in 2003 and features whole flower English and American hops, while Yakima Glory (8.7% abv) first launched in 2008 and is brewed with four American hop varieties from the Yakima Valley. Ten Years Alt (8.5% abv) marked Victory's 10th anniversary in 2006. All three brews will be distributed nationwide.
St. Louis-based Schlafly Beer is launching a White Lager, available now through March. The unfiltered German-style beer is 5.5% abv and intended to serve as an alternative to high-alcohol winter seasonals such as stouts and porters. White Lager was developed as part of Schlafly's experimental Small Brews program created on its 12-gallon brewing system. White Lager is launching in six-packs for about $8.99 and at select on-premise locations throughout Schlafly's distribution footprint. The company says it brewed 60,000 barrels of beer last year between its two brewery restaurants, located in downtown St. Louis and nearby Maplewood respectively.
Irvine, California's Evans Brewing Company is debuting four new bottled beers that will make up its core year-round lineup. The company's first four packaged beers are Pollen Nation Honey Blonde Ale (5.2% abv), The KrHOPen India Pale Ale (6% abv), Oaklore Brown Ale (6.5% abv) and ChocoLatté Chocolate Porter (6.8% abv). Evans says it expects to release further year-round packaged beers and a rotating portfolio of seasonal releases in the future.
The Bronx Brewery has unveiled On The Black Pale Ale, the latest entry in its limited edition B-Side Series range. Brewed with a trio of malts and West Coast El Dorado and Citra hops, On The Black (5.7% abv) is unfiltered and unpasteurized, and will be available on draft at select accounts throughout New York City, New Jersey, Connecticut and New York's Westchester County. A portion of the brew has been reserved for aging in Mezcal barrels, with the aged version set to launch in early 2016. On The Black is The Bronx Brewery's second B-Side expression, following its El Serrano Red IPA in September.
Half Moon Bay, California-based Mavericks Brewing is adding two new craft beers to its lineup this month—Big Break Belgian Golden Strong Ale and Coastside Pilsner. The new offerings join Tunnel Vision IPA, Belgian Style Wit and Rye Pale Ale in the brewer's portfolio. Big Break (8.3% abv) is brewed with Pilsner malt and a small amount of wheat with European hops added, while Coastside (5.5% abv) is brewed with American 2-Row and German Pilsner malt with German and American hops and California lager yeast. Both new beers are available on draft and in four-packs of 16-ounce cans throughout the San Francisco Bay Area and Northern California.
Portland, Maine's Peak Organic Brewing Company is rolling out its Winter Session IPA, a dry-hopped dark wheat ale blended with Citra hops. The company sourced its wheat from local farms and used organic hops in the brewing process. Winter Session Ale will be available nationwide on draft and in package format through January 15. Peak Organic brews 24 varieties of beer, including an IPA, Fresh Cut, Summer Session, Simcoe Spring and Hop Harvest Oktoberfest, among others.
Escondido, California's Stone Brewing Company has released Grainiac, the latest entry in its experimental Stochasticity Project series. Featuring a malt bill composed of seven grain varieties, Grainiac also includes Columbus, Chinook, Centennial and Cascade hops. Stochasticity Project Grainiac (8.5% abv) is available in 22-ounce bombers and on draft at select retailers in Stone's 42-state footprint. It joins previous Stochasticity Project releases including Master of Disguise, Hibiscuscity, Quadrotriticale, Varna Necropolis and Grapefruit Slam IPA.
Seattle-based specialty beer importer Merchant du Vin will introduce two new lambics under the Lindemans brand early next year. The first, Lindemans Oude Kriek Cuvée René (7% abv), is billed as an old-style lambic sour beer fermented with cherries. The second newcomer is Lindemans/Mikkeller SpontanBasil, a collaboration between Lindemans and Danish brewer Mikkeller which is 6% abv and claims to be the first lambic brewed with fresh basil. Both new offerings will launch in the U.S. next February.
San Diego's Green Flash Brewing Company has unveiled Segal Ranch Session IPA, the final entry in its 2015 Hop Odyssey series. The 4.5%-abv IPA, which is brewed with single-estate Tomahawk, Centennial and Cascade hops sourced from Yakima, Washington's Segal Ranch, will be available nationwide in six-packs, 22-ounce bottles and on draft through the end of the year. Concurrently, Green Flash has announced plans to launch three pale ales as part of its 2016 Hop Odyssey lineup, each focusing on a single hop variety from a specific country. They will include a Pacific Gem Pale Ale with New Zealand hops (available January-April); a Styrian Golding Pale Ale with Slovenian hops (May-August); and a Nugget Pale Ale with American hops (September-December).

Winds of Change
Main Page
Story Decription
Archon Giselle de la Croix has been ordered by her Justicar to investigate The Prince of Key West. Gathering a group of Kindred allies, Giselle makes her way south through Sabbat infested Miami to Key West where blood is scarce, and the stakes are high. The Prince of the city, Emmaline Du Veaux controls her fiefdom with secrecy and the power of blood. Through combination of boons, blood bonds, and her mysterious influence over the city's numerous Malkavians, the Prince is unrivaled in her control of the city. However South Florida is a hotly contested area, and yet the savage Cainites of the Sabbat have never been able to successfully conquer Key West. Recent intelligence suggests a link between the Prince and the Sabbat, but to what end?
Will the Archon be able to unravel the mystery in time, or will she be drowned in a sea of blood surging ahead of the coming storm?
Bone Island Cayo Hueso, Bone Island, Key West. The island as had many names and many inhabitatants over the years. Once the richest city in Florida, Key West is now known for it's bars, unique locals, and access to all manner of ocean activities.
The General's Bunker An old bomb shelter from the fifties, once abandoned to the county and later sold to the Key West airport. This structure remains suspiciously unused despite it's guarded nature. It is here that The Eldest/The General makes his haven.
The Cemetary Similar to the above ground cemetaries of New Orleans, Key West's unique geological composition makes it all but impossible to bury the dead below ground. Filled with graves ranging from the comic to the tragic, it is a favorite haunt of those in need of quiet respite.
Club XS Co-owned by the Malkavian Drag QueenVagina Hurtzand M. De la Croix, the club known as "XS" occupies a previously vacant theatre behind the St. Paul's Episcopal Church. What better place for the Kindred to hide?
La Concha Hotel The tallest, if not oldest building on Duval St., from the roof of the La Concha one can see the harbor and all of downtown Key West. It is here that Emmaline DuVeaux, Tremere Prince of Key West often meets the members of her court.
As a sect dedicated to the Traditons laid down by the first vampire, Caine, the Camarilla work together to maintain the Masquerade, but is sometimes little more than a backdrop to the schemes of the eldest vampires. Key West has long been under the aupices of the Camarilla, thanks in no small part to the actions of the city's potent Prince. The rest of south Florida however has for many decades been controlled by packs of Sabbat under the leadership of the Malkavian antitribu, Archbishop Fabrizia Contrariz.
Emmaline DuVeaux, Tremere Prince of Key West The Tremere are not often known as a clan to take the highest political positions, but more those of the power behind the throne. Key West's Prince is a bit of a lone wolf among her normally tight-knit clan, however with no support from her clan she is the unrivaled leader among Key West's Kindred.
Ms. Edna St. George, Gangrel Sheriff Sheriff St. George is one of the few Gangrel to remain loyal to the Camarilla after her clan's seperation from the sect. This is due in part to her loyalty to her Prince and the level of respect and power she commands among the local vampires. The Sheriff is responsible for enforcing both the Traditions of the Camarilla, and the edicts of the Prince.
Patrick "Paddy" O'Rourke, Brujah Scourge of Key West Paddy O'Rourke is quite the bastard. He has made few friends among the locals, but he has earned a reputation as a vicious and sadistic servant of the Prince. In his duties as Scourge, he has the authority to evict or destroy any Kindred of the most recent generations known as the, "thin blooded." The fact that few of these young Kindred are ever heard from after their initial encounter with the Scourge only adds to his deadly reputation.
The vampires of Clan Malkavian are a twice damned lot. Burdened with the dual curses of madness and vampirism due to the transgressions of their mythical progenitor, Malkav. The Kindred of this clan find Key West's eccentric mortal population easy to hide among. Some have wondered why so many Lunatics are drawn to the island, as few of the local Kindred were Embraced there, but none can fathom the motivations of mad.
The Lance De facto Primogen of the clan in Key West and the Prince's eyes and ears on the street, the Lance is a charming if eccentric link in the Prince's chain of authority.
Finn Few know him, fewer still seek his company once they have met him. Finn is your quintessential Key West bum. Possesing a prodigious stench and a similarly provacative nature, Finn slides between fantasy and reality easily. Though some question his wisdom, on matters of science, the occult, and history his knowledge is comprehensive if not always accurate.
Orlando "Bruno" Griffin New to Key West, and linked to the coterie of Kindred surrounding Archon Giselle De la Croix, Griffin has only recently discovered his membership in the clan. Haunted by a past he cannot remember, Lando searches for clues to his lost life/unlife. Recently upon meeting The Don, old memories have resurfaced of life among the inhuman Sabbat. Fearing the implications this may have on his current situation, he is seeking more info on his infamous mentor.
Vagina Hurtz is one of Key West's premier drag queens. Lauded for his/her brassy voice and sassy nature, few would suspect that this consumate entertainer and star of Key West gay community is in fact a creature of the night. Believing him/herself to have been female before his/her Embrace, Miss Vagina (pronounced Vaj-eena) Hurtz was found among the debris of a collapsed church by his/her ally and employer, Archon Giselle De la Croix. Having long abandoned his/her forgotten past, Hurtz is happy to lose his/herself in the intrigues of Kindred society, Key West nightlife, and service as both groom and spy for his/her Mistress.
The Eldest/The General Little is known of the Kindred known as "the Eldest." He makes his haven in an abandoned bomb shelter between little Hamaca Park and the Key West Airport. There, guarded by fanatical ghouls appearing to the uninitiated as homeless vagrants, he alternately raves and broods upon the fate of the island. Few know truly how old he is, or his mortal name. His voice is unaccented in the dozen or so languages in which he screams prophecies and epithets to the echoing halls of his fortified haven. The Prince is seemingly unaware, or unafraid of this elder's influence upon the local Malkavian population. A flaw that one night she may come to regret.
Vampire supremacists and post-human monsters, the Sabbat believes in freedom from the opression of the schemes of the most ancient vampires. That the Sabbat's actions may well be part of those machinations is an irony few would confront these rabid Cainites with. Organized as an unholy crusade the Sabbat's Priscii, Bishops and Archbishops lead the various packs of younger vampires in a war against the "weaker" Kindred of the Camarilla. The two sects have been at war almost since their inception, and no where is that war more vicious or dramatic than North America. The Sabbat have long controlled much of south Florida, but in recent years their enemies among the Camarilla have gained a foothold within the Sunshine State. Despite their south Floridian hegemony, the Sabbat have never been able to rout the strong presence of the Camarilla in Key West.
The Don is a mystery to most. Little is known of this dangerous and dapper gentelman vampire. He is known to be the emissary of the Queen with Burning Eyes, an elder of great power and mysterious origins. Scholars have linked him to the Conquistadors of Spain, and possibly the Holy Roman Emperor Charles V, but little else is known. He has long been linked with the Florida peninsula, some say that he is searching for some lost treasure or artifact from his mortal life.
The Queen with Burning Eyes Her royal personage has not been seen by the eyes of the sane in many centuries. Only her emissary, the Don, has seen her and kept his mind in tact, and whether that is a sign of his steely resolve, or her divine will is best left to conjecture. What is known is that the Queen has been a known player in vampiric politics for over five centuries. Hardly old by Kindred standards the Queen has made an impressive impact upon the Jyhad, and those unlucky enough to have earned her ire count themselves lucky to be killed by her vengeance. Those that have survived her machinations find their minds twisted by her insane whims. If the Queen has set her sights on Key West, the Kindred of the Keys, Sabbat and Camarilla alike, may find themselves ensnared in the webs of her insanity .
Eel/Worm the Eel, or Worm, as the Prince has dubbed him, has been a thorn in her side for some time. A monster, most likely of the inhuman Nosferatu clan, the Eel is blamed with the deaths of for mortals within the Prince's realm. He has been witnessed to be in possesion of powers here-to-fore unkonwn to Kindred occultists. Seemingly able to alter his form like wax. This allowed him to move into spaces much smaller than normally possible, possibly allowing him to exist within Key West storm drains and tiny sewer lines. Recently staked and captured by Archon De la Croix and her coterie his current whereabouts and ultimate fate are unknown.

This is strange
(1) Knoppix doesn't write on ntfs partition automatically. How can it save an iso image on a ntfs partition?
(2) If an iso file can be booted from a ntfs partition, presumably by a Windows then the Windows has to be killed off first (M$ wouldn't like that) and a mechanism must exist to mount the iso image but there isn't one. What operating system are you using to boot an iso image?
(3) Normally the iso image is booted by the standard CD boot loader "isolinux" which will not boot from a hard disk. Users booting an iso image has to use an alternative boot loader.
(4) There isn't a procedure to get rid of a problem that doesn't exist. If the file isn't there what do you want to get rid of?

OK I think I understand where you are coming from.
Basically you have downloaded an iso image stored in a ntfs partition and you are trying to boot it up with a Knoppix Live CD.
If this is the case what is stopping you from installing Knoppix directly from the CD?
For being a Live CD Knoppix can hand down the root privilege to you without demanding the root password if you just type
su knoppix-installer

Here is a simple way to have knoppix on your hd without dual booting, or disturbing your mbr. This is similar to what youre trying, except it requires creating a partition on your hd, and you wont be actually booting from an iso file. If youre comfortable partitiong your hd, give this a try. Create a fat32 partition in your free space(at the end). I prefer gparted for this, but use whichever tool you like. Then reboot to the knoppix cd, at the boot prompt, type:
knoppix tohd=/dev/hdax (where x is the number for the new partition)
When it is finished copying the files, it should continue to boot from the hd partition. Shut down, and reboot to the knoppix cd, at the boot prompt, type:
knoppix fromhd=/dev/hdax
This will force it to boot from the hd partition, and you can take the cd out and use the drive for other purposes. This method will also work with flash drives(at least 1g) , and is handy for older machines that dont support booting from usb devices. Knoppix runs very fast from a flash drive.
Anytime you fool around with dual booting/partitioning...ect, always back up your windows partition. A little mistake can either wipe out your windows stuff. or make it inaccessible without doing some repair work.

I love to decorate for Christmas! It always takes longer than I think though. Friday night (after black Friday shopping and leftovers) I put up this tree next to my tub. After a looooong time...Blake came back and said "you are still decorating that tree?". Yep...I turned on Josh Groban's Christmas CD, sat on the bathroom floor, and decorated a tree. Isn't that what everybody does on Friday nights?
Tonight we decorated three more trees.
Jenna is getting her tree all "prettied up".
I'm working on a little ribbon garland for the tree in the living room.
We have one tree left but it will have to wait until tomorrow night. We always decorate it as a family. This year we bought a smaller tree so it should be a quick decorating extvaganza.
All done (until tomorrow night)!

I installed a battery in backwards in a 2000 land rover discovery 2 The horn honked before I was able to remove battery terminal. Now car won't. Starter will not turn. Dash board lights still work. What did I blow out?
5 Answers
Probably the main fuse off the battery.
Did the battery survive? you might consider a load test to see if it has any guts left. then chargereee~
the alternator has six diodes that do not like to be reversed...they may be okay....crossin' my fingers-
you have also run the risk of blowing the ecu

The world epigenetics market is segmented based on product, research area, end user, and geography. The market is further segmented based on product into enzymes, instruments & consumables, kits, and reagents.
Epigenetics, in the field of genetics, involves study of cellular and physiological trait variations initiated by external or ecological aspects which swipe genes on and off and affect how cells read genes contrary to being affected by changes in the DNA classification. It is responsible for skin cells appearing dissimilar as compared to brain cells or muscle cells. Epigenetics changes are influenced factors, such as age, surrounding environment, lifestyle, and disease state. If epigenetic changes occur in sperms or egg cells, it can be passed down to future generations. The three systems such as DNA methylation, non-coding RNA (ncRNA)-associated gene silencing, and histone modification are implemented to sustain epigenetics change. The recent studies discovering the significant role of epigenetics in treatment of various diseases presents new avenues in this market.

Boy I'm really longing for warmer days right about now! We've been having colder than normal temps, but I think most of you guys have been too. Warmth cannot come soon enough. So I pulled this cutie from my archives. He's here to ask you all to please check the 'blogroll' link there on the left and make sure you're on it and that the info is correct. If you're not or I need to change things, please leave me the title you'd like, your url and the state or country you're blogging from.
And btw, we signed up for the weight race again this year, trying to finish off those extra pounds. And to help encourage us we started a blog where we'll both post. So, if you're interested in hearing about diet food and exercise and results you can find it at "No Weighting".
Thanx for being my bloggy friends! (((hugs)))

Inspired by a line from a JG Ballard novel, I decided to draw a map of myself, but of course to do that I first needed a little help. I called an old friend and was deliberately cryptic, asking her if she could possibly spare me some time on this murky Sunday morning. Intrigued she agreed and was at my front door within the hour. I ushered her in and being enthused by my pet project showed her none of my usual hospitality. She wasn't permitted to throw her handbag down or take her coat off, although I had insisted she removed her shoes before I shoved her through to the living room. There was no time to lose!
room, I admit, was in a bit of disarray, which my friend would tell
you was highly unusual as I'm scrupulously clean. The sink was piled
with dirty dishes from Saturday's dinner and this morning's hurried
breakfast; the air smelt faintly of spices and banana porridge. The
table was littered with debris: more dirty crockery, salt and pepper
shakers, a smear of dried tomato sauce, along with a carelessly
flung-down pair of large scissors and tiny screwed up balls of
sellotape. The carpeted floor was strewn with blank A3 sheets of
paper, some of torn or trampled.
my good friend has seen worse, so said not a word, although I have to
say that being in the 'moment' I wasn't too shamed by how it must
have looked. That happened in the next couple of days once my
creative-manic phase was well and truly over.
what's the emergency?" She enquired, standing in her outer wear and
pink socked feet.
round me!" I barked, flinging myself down on sheets of A3
sellotaped together.
god my friend has the patience of a saint!
knelt, handbag still clamped on her shoulder and picked up the green
felt tip I'd selected earlier, as I stretched fully-clothed, lying
face up, on my paper rug.
was the best place, she said, to begin? Head or feet? I personally
thought the left side of my neck, so that's what I told her, and then
the pen's tickle began.
She was
cautious at first, but grew bolder as she got used to being inches
away from my physical frame. Her grip on the pen more sure as her
mind let go and entered the flow of tracing my contours. I wanted it
to be exact, no half measures. My friend knew all too well my
perfectionist streak so I hadn't needed to tell her, and besides from
my vantage point I could easily see the concentration etched on her
sweet face.
The pen
tickled my ribs so that I bit the inside of my lip and tasted my own
iron-rich blood. Its nib caressed in-between my long fingers and I
inwardly squirmed. Don't move, I soundlessly commanded myself, you'll
spoil the art.
She said, sitting back on her heels and capping the felt tip with a
satisfied click.
slowly got up from my prostate position, being careful not to crease
the paper, and stood over our joint creation. The bird's eye view was
just as I hoped. It was like a looped coastal path that started and
ended at the same location, but the landscape it contained was empty.
friend had left me admiring the outline of myself to pour herself a
lukewarm mug of coffee. She returned to my awestruck side, mug in
hand, "Anything else, your Ladyship?"
ta", I replied giving her a quick sidelong glance and a half
crescent smile. "Right then, I'll be off." She said, padding
unobtrusively again to the kitchen and then the front door, letting
herself softly out.
I felt bad for dragging her to my place on a Sunday, but at the time
I was on a creative roll, at the peak of a very high mountain.
Pursuing art can be like that sometimes; the map of myself far more
important than anything else, including others plans.
coloured pencils had gone to work before the front door had even
lightly touched its frame. My stomach became the sea with white
crests and sail boats; my heart was a Museum with Grecian pillars,
and my head was crammed with rows of books. Mapping my body with the
places I've seen and things that I loved was an all-consuming art.

more GOOD Changes
You know there are soooo many things i wish I would have learned sooner. I guess I'm grateful to be learning them at all. I'm really proud of the steps me & my husband & our family have been taking, thinking about how we use things, do we need things, looking at the BIG picture and what impact it has not just on us, but on our world. Just being more aware.. it's something we've been doing for a while in small ways but lately especially really feel like we've been stepping up our responsibilities, not just for our own sake BUT cause in doing these things and reducing what we are using is helping our world. Since, at this time, it doesn't seem like we can do much to help the world financially, cause we are struggling a little this month especially. (Brian's company went from bi-monthly pay checks to monthly ones.. so we have a 1/2 month salary (his last) on April 1st to make it thru til the end of the month-- ugh!) That's hard to do when you are living paycheck to paycheck and i just quit my job. I didn't make much, but it would have helped anyway.. sometimes you need to take a stand. I'm not upset about that.. I'm upset that I feel like I'm not contributing as much to our family.. So I've been trying really hard to figure out ways we can use less, for it to cost less and so we can save more. It's my goal & its making me feel better. We already have implemented alot of changes in the way we live and I'm hoping that we don't stop when things get better financially. For instance, we are being conscience of stuff...like shutting things off, buying less, ie: bottled water(using the Brita) and wanting to save for really important things instead of foolish spending.. getting rid of some of the "STUFF" in our lifes and concentrating on THE important things. We are also BIG on coupons right now... we are saving ALOT this way. Making a decision we are only going to buy something when it's on sale or with a coupon or BOTH! YAY! That's the best! hehe. Also just being really diligent in using all the things in the refridgerator, freezer & pantry... trying to spend less and use what we have. i really do feel proud about the changes :) THE other key is using up things... I can't tell you how many times I threw away things that were expired. Knowing they are in there and USING THEM ALL UP, it's a huge thing. We've even been using bar soap (Brian gets them from the hotels-- when he travels, so instead of buying soft soap.. we've been using them up.) How many years did people only use bar soap.. so I just decided to use up all the tiny bars of soap before buying more.. why not right??? These are small steps but all togehter can really make an impact. I think it's a really good example to show EMily too. Another thing we just did was move our money to a new bank.. we found a bank that didn't have a minimum required amount. So if we went below a certain amt, we won't get hit with a fee.. that's so frustrating when that happens.. it's like throwing money away. We just had enough with that.. i hope the bank we chose is good to us. We did some investigating and they have a good record & we got a signing bonus of $100.00 for opening it (after 60day) and $15 gift card also. YAY! Anyway.. just thought I would share this.. perhaps it can inspire you to make some changes to. We know & aren't claiming to be experts on this.. infact, I am realizing that the internet & twitter are actually great ways to get inspired & to learn. ... Follow some Green sites, they have great articles & advice. :) Anyway.. have a great day. Reduce, reuse, recycle... and it makes u feel good too! :)

Much to share
Hi Everyone.. okay.. first off.. My daughter Emily GOT STRAIGHT A's on her report card!! So proud of her! We really weren't sure what her grades would be because we lost our password for the "parent" portal so hadn't been able to check out her grades. We knew she was doing well but really didn't know it would be ALL A's. WOW! I'm so proud of her, the work is getting harder and for her to continue to do so well is just really really FANTASTIC! Also.. let's see I've been on kind of a high all day. This morning I was tweeting.. yes I'm totally addicted to twitter of late. Been having fun following people & posting. Anyway this morning I @ Henry Winkler something, You know the FONZ.. and he actually responded!!! I'm like OMG.. the fonz!!! He answered MY Tweet! I told him that Emily enjoyed his book "i got a D in Salami" & that I kept saying wow the fonz wrote it. Anyway.... he responded to me! I know I'm such a dork but it made me feel special..it's not every day that the fonz Henry Winkler responds to something u say. It was great! Anyway.. what else??? Let's see.. I'm kinding freaking out alittle about the idea of finding a job.. ugh.. who wants to do that. I know I need to, but it's just putting yourself out there & looking which is such a hard thing to do.. especially when you have some insecurities like I do.. Not easy. I'll get thru it and do it, cause well we could really use the money but it's just not fun! I know I should be more positive! This morning.. i opened up a futune cookie which made me feel a little bit better, it said, "Don't be hasty, prosperity will knock on your door soon. :)" How cool is that? right? I guess I should go.. feeling a little tired but didn't wanna forget to share these. Goodnight peeps! Sleep well...

A new Picture of Emily...
Just thought I'd share this new picture of the 10 year old Emily. Realize some of the pics on this blog are a bit old. :) PEACE!

the "too deep" of a thinker Emily...
Last night as I was tucking in Emily... she said out of the blue.. "Mom---what if you died?" Well I was a little took back.. i mean I didn't know what to say, how was I suppose to answer that.... finally.. i said "well that probably won't happen for a loooong time". Emily is a little "obsessed" with the idea of death.. I kinda understand why? I mean Emily grew up around death.. My mom died when Emily was 6 months old. I don't think we realized what an impact that would have on her... We talked about it, were sad about it..obviously, that loss was very hard for me, obviously.. and she lived with us.. so it was talked not ALOT but more than normal probably.. how could it not be, so I get it.. i understand why she asked it but it's hard and I don't want it to be something she thinks about all the time, so I also said, "Emily.. none of us know when we are going to die but MOST people live to be very OLD and so it's not something we should THINK about too much, known of us have Expiration dates, meaning we don't know how long we'll live BUT probably for a long time... ok?" She said okay... & I kissed her goodnight. As a mom, I hope i answered it okay... & luckily when she's ask these types of questions in the past, we atleast have an example of a person who lived a good loooong life too.. her Great Grandma who just passed away in 2009 was 96 years old!!! So I've also said in the past... look at Great... she lived a good LONG life. I've also said.. that i would always love her, and that there would always be people to take care of her, and love her. Cause like I said, we have this talk more than most kids & parents do, but never quite this direct.. it's a tough subject. When I think about it... when I was a kid, i thought about it too, more than I think most kids probably.. i don't know why i did.. perhaps it's just cause I was a worrier, just like Emily... and what's the biggest thing to worry about ... DEATH! BUT, I don't want her to worry about it. Hell I don't want myself to worry about it... so I want very much so to ease her worrying. Anyway.. I hope my answer was okay, and provided her a little comfort. What should one say.. how does one answer that? I'm not sure there is a perfect answer.. so i just hope i did ok.

1st post of 2011.... that's CRAZY!
Well i was looking at this blog today for the first time in a long time and it just got me wanting to post something, i can't believe I haven't written anything in 2011...I really do have some catching up to do. This whole Japan tsunami & earthquake is beyond HEARTBREAKING.. I seriously can't watch the news.. i mean i can't.. it gets me tooo sad. I feel so small. I don't know how to help.. and so i just don't watch for my own good. Anyway, What else.... Brian's been liking his job still.. the new one at SEI. He's still a contracted employee with them but is hoping to become an actual employee.. it would be a wonderful step! So that's good news.. me on the other end. I decided to leave TG. I had some building resentment over a few decisions that were made there, and so for many reasons, decided to give my 2 week notice. The truth of the matter is, I think I'll be much happier now. It wasn't worth it. Anyway, the funny thing is that I did actually enjoy working there, aside from the fact that it wasn't something that I felt like i was properly trained to do, and "Perfection" was expected & I'm sorry but no one is perfect. Atleast that is my take, I'm sure my boss has his own. I'm not trying to bad mouth anyone..it's just this is my blog and I won't be anything but honest on it. The good news is that I know will have the opportunity to babysit Joshy more. Danielle is taking on more hours and so hopefully I'll get him a little more--- so that'll help a little with boredom & such. Eventually I'll probably need to find something else. God knows we could use the money. Brian was really really supportive and that made me feel better about the decision. I love him for that. Like everyone we arque but when it comes to the big picture things we are usually on the same page. WHich is a wonderful thing. Anyway.. Emily is doing pretty good. She had a little bit of a rough batch as far as math was concerned but seems to have gotten back on track. 4th grade is going pretty good. She actually just completed an essay that is due tomorrow so that's good. Anyway.. I'm actually babysitting Joshy tomorrow so i should probably get to bed. I'll write soon.. i hope anyway.. peace!

I'm with John Popham in Birmingham reporting from the Your Square Mile National Summit, where more than 100 people are sharing experience from the local pilot projects that have been running this year around the UK. More on the pilots and YSM on their site.
As well as updates from the pilots, there are surgeries on fundraising, local ownership of community assets, setting up a community shop, and local online communities.
Your Square Mile is one of the major partners in the Big Lottery Fund's People Powered Change, and I have reported past developments at socialreporter.com. I'll be talking later in the day with chief executive Paul Twivy and others in the team to get an update on developments. Meanwhile you can follow #ysmbrum tweets here from the the event.

Day 101 : Chocolate Candy Bead Watch
Day 100: Handmade Charm Earrings
Yayyyy!! This is my 100th project! I am so proud of myself! I am only 265 more projects away from completing my challenge. There have been days where I clump posts together but every day I still complete one assignment.
Today we are celebrating my handmade projects by making a pair of handmade earrings. I used .45mm wire instead of headpins. Each earring has a bronze charm shaped like a hand with the word "handmade" printed on each of them. I used glass pastel czech beads and one pink howlite sphere beads. I used crimp tubes to keep the beads in place and I used silver plated ear wires.

Day 92 : Christmas Pom Poms [ With Tutorial]
So although these pom poms may look a bit uneven they are actually six separate pom poms put together.
I followed the tutorial I found here on Hello Knitty. You can just do these easiest method and lay down a bunch of yarn against a string a tie it tightly. I am going to use these pom poms instead of ribbons on the gifts that I plan to send out.

Day 87 : BubbleGum Bracelet
I enjoy these neon pink howlite beads, they are similar to these little gum pieces I used to consume as a kid. I used wooden sphere beads and stretchy cord to make this bracelet. I used a heart shaped toggle clasp and since the cord is stretchy you can slip your hand right through it.
Monday, December 12, 2011
Day 86: Turquoise Howlite Bracelet
This bracelet is made from turquoise howlite beads, faux metal beads, and faux pearl beads. This bracelet is nice and light and fits any wrist.
Sunday, December 11, 2011
Day 85 : Heart Key Candy Bracelet
I decided to make this after watching The Heart She Holler. I have no idea since I just saw the key to city episodes. These candy flat disc howlite beads house a heart skeleton key.
Day 84: Green Spot Change Purse
Made from 100% cotton fabric quarters and a satin lining. This is a Christmas gift is for a relative of mine. I intend to make an entire set if I can.

Day 80: Green Coral Bracelet
This was originally a gift for someone but I learned that I had enough to make another one. These are two shades of green coral nuggets. They are held together on .45mm wire with a heart shaped toggle and clasp. These make great gifts especially if you have a pair of matching earrings!
Monday, December 5, 2011
Day 79 : Eastern Porcelain Bracelet
( 21.59 centimeters) long so it should fit bracelet sizes 8-8.25 inches.
Sunday, December 4, 2011
Day 78 : Hootie Hoo Hoop Earrings
I was too excited to get these owls in the mail. I decided to make them into charm hoop earrings, the only downside is that I did not bend the hoops as well as I should have. The round brown beads are howlite beads. The diamond beads are made from brown plastic with a soft glossy finish. The owls are made from tibetan silver. These earrings are 2 1/2 inches ( 6.35 cm) long and 2 inches (5.08 cm) wide. These are great for the woodland, boho, and hipster crowd. Throw on your favorite mustache t-shirt and you are good to go!
Day 77: Nuggets and Charms Earrings
I created this to see how for I can go with a kidney shaped finding. For starters it was hard finding a bead to fit but eventually I found these coral nuggets in one of my boxes. For spacer beads I use faux metal and in the middle of each of these dangle earrings I placed a star shaped tibetan silver charm in the middle. The findings I used surgical steel earwires. These earrings are great from teenagers to adults. They are very lightweight and can be worn in the office or just hanging out with friends.

Googling Memories
All the busy-ness that's been going on lately has really ramped down this week. I've had quite a bit of free time and have been having fun playing with Google Maps, particularly the street views. I love exploring! Especially places that I've visited in the past. I can look them up on Google and run up and down the streets and remember what it was like to be there in real life.
My aunt and uncle have lived in several different places across the US. He's a pastor so they've had to move quite a few times. My favorite house they ever lived in was in a little town in Nebraska…
Here's the house next to the church.
I had fun looking for this one. All I could remember was the name of the town, that the house and the church was on a corner, and there was a grocery/hardware store just across the street. I pretty much guessed my way around town, clicking up and down the streets until I spotted the pool that my little cousins went to almost every day during the summer. Then I turned around and knew exactly which direction to go :)
It had a grand staircase just inside the front door that creaked up to the second floor with the wonky doors. There was a huge kitchen in the back of the house and my aunt made raspberry tea with Sprite. I think I drank their whole supply while I was there–it was sooo good!
I never ventured down into the storm cellar. I think I was too scared.
And here's the hardware store right across the street that my grandpa loved going to. I don't remember it being called Dollar General, though… Or am I remembering a different hardware store? Either way I remember watching from the front porch for Grandpa to emerge with whatever gizmo gadget he found to fix something…
Aww shucks, it's the fam! Please excuse my 15-year-old pasty, scrawny legs. They tried to get a tan…
Ahh the memories. Road trips with Grandpa and Grandma were so much fun :)

When Nick Martini was in high school, he dreamed about playing baseball in the Big 12 Conference. To him, it was the top league in the country, and simply being part of it would make him first-rate by association.
But Kansas State's sophomore center fielder never thought beyond that. In all his daydreaming, he never thought about being the league's best player.
That's something he had to experience for himself. At a ceremony on Tuesday in Oklahoma City, he was named the league's co-Player of the Year along with Missouri's Aaron Seene.
"I'm a little bit shocked, just because of all the good players in this league," Martini said in a phone interview. "This isn't something I anticipated. When I got here, I just wanted to try and compete. This is really unbelievable."
Martini is the first Wildcat to receive the honor since Craig Wilson in 1992. Martini also earned All-Big 12 honors along with K-State third baseman Adam Muenster and shortstop Carter Jurica.
The last time three K-State players earned all-conference status was in 1995 with the Big Eight.
Martini said winning both awards was the best individual moment of his K-State career. He won them largely because of his hitting.
The Crystal Lake, Ill., native finished the regular season with a Big 12-leading .420 batting average, a mark that ranks seventh in Big 12 history and third in K-State history. Heading into this week's conference tournament, Martini also tops the league in on-base percentage at .512, and
is tied for second in triples with four.
His breakout season came a year after he hit .324 and earned honorable mention All-Big 12 accolades as a freshman.
Martini credits his improvement with learning to be a more patient hitter.
"Last year as a freshman in the middle of the lineup, I wasn't patient and I chased a lot of pitches I shouldn't have," Martini said. "I wasn't patient. This year I was, and I was a much better hitter."

Last weekend, we drove to Cameron Highlands for a short break among the farms and tea plantations. This was very much a relaxing holiday. Even the driving (for 9 hours to get there) was really rather fun, as we had packed lots of junk food and cold drinks (which stayed cold!) for the road. Cameron Highlands consists of a cluster of about 3 - 4 little towns, dotted with farms and plantations along the way. They are famous for their vegetables and fruits, which they export to other parts of Malaysia and Singapore as well. Indeed, the vegetables tasted so extremely sweet and crisp (this comes from a non-veggie/fruit lover) that even I couldn't resist gobbling them down. Of course, we plucked lots of fresh strawberries at RM30 per kilo as well which were so sweet and juicy, since we could choose the largest, reddest, and ripest ones to pick! A nice and slow weekend among nature and a wonderful getaway.

Edition: Lighthouse Publishing
Date of issue: 18 February 2014
Description of the book "Common Mistakes Writers Make":Many times I have been asked, "Will you look at my manuscript and give me your opinion?" Or, "Will you look at my manuscript and edit it?" I did that for a while, at no cost. Until the day I realized I spent more time editing other people's work for free than I did writing my own, which was my bread and butter. And with that, the editing arm of my company grew fingers. I find editing issues in nearly every manuscript, especially those of new writers. I made the same mistakes early on. After discussing the situation with PDF a few of my conference director friends, I decided the time had come to offer "Common Mistakes Writers Make" as a conference workshop. And so I did. After one of those conferences, an editor wisely asked, "Have you thought about putting this workshop into the form of a book?" I had not until that moment. (Insert smile here.) What you are about to read is not rocket science. These pages are not filled with English Grammar 101 lessons (although one of the best things you can do for yourself as a writer is to find an old seventh grade English grammar textbook ePub, read it, and complete the exercises). I don't claim to be the final authority on all the issues, but I know what I know. This book is but a small collection of editing mistakes I often find in the work that comes across my desk (and sometimes by my own hand). It shouldn't take long for you to read it, but when you reach the end of it, I hope you ll have had some aha moments. I'm writing conversationally, by the way, because I pretend I am speaking directly to you as I PDF write, my friend. I'm basically telling you what I think I know.

Who is the 'primitive' one Mr Tkatchenko?
Sports Minister, Justin Tkatchenko has referred to a national rugby official as 'primitive', following a melee at Saturday's Digicel semi-final.
No one would defend a brawling team official, but this racist, demeaning language from a Minister no less has no excuse.
This is how the neo-colonialists oppress us. They demean our culture, history and character, through labels such as primitive. They make us feel small and backward.
They then offer to help us 'develop', for a price, of course. Our minerals, land, and trees are all the price for entering their 'modernity'.
But what exactly have these modern day foreign missionaries taught us?
Here is the example set by the 'highly educated' Mr Tkatchenko:
Corruption, theft and cronyism.
Sadly Justin Tkatchenko's statement only says, what a lot of expatriates think. Many were town fools back in Australia, but they come here and assume thrones, commanding business, government and the media.
They have dipped their hands in bribery, corruption and theft, arguably better than any national, but then piously lecture us on good governance.
Then when our politicians get involved in grease and theft, the foreign academics claim this is a result of Westminster democracy being poisoned by Melanesian ways.
No sirs, it is you who introduced corruption and theft. Our politicians are not corrupt because they are Melanesians, they are corrupt because they have mastered the dark arts of dispossession that the white colonialists brought to Papua New Guinea, so they could pillage our land and resources.
August 29, 2016 at 9:48 am
F#$k off mate! I am a pure Papua New Guinean and I agree that these *** are primitive.
You'd think we'd learn our lesson by now.
Look for better things to whinge about please. Don't be small minded..
August 29, 2016 at 9:49 am
What do you expect the National Sports Minister to say?? This guy is a primitive, albeit he is a trainer and knows very well the rules of the game. I am in support of the Ministers!
August 29, 2016 at 10:35 am
I am 100% PNG national and agree with the Minister's comments about the team's official being "primitive". I don't see any racist connotations stemming from that…until now via this article.
I fully agree with his comments because the so-called officials, in their capacity, did not professionaly accept defeat in a good sportsmanship way. There should be a more severe punishment in addition to the life-ban. This reaction has risen up to the criminal level.
August 30, 2016 at 3:01 am
I dunno. If the same brawl had broken out at a Broncos game in Brisbane, between some drunk white blokes, do you think Tkatchenko would label them 'primitive'.
Thugs maybe, idiots possibly. Primitive is not a neutral word, it is a term associated with shamed scientific theories that described non-European people as a throwback. And it was used to justify slavery and genocide. Its used all the time to describe us. Tour companies offer special deals to see the most backward people in the world: http://www.papuatrekking.com/first_contact_expedition.html
Politicians should not be indulging these ignorant views. Observer is right, punishment need to be given out to those involved. But two wrongs dont make a right.
August 30, 2016 at 3:05 am
Come to think of it, Saturday's actions are far from "primitive". But were simply a reflection of modern-day imbecility. Just look at soccer violence in these modern European countries with civilisations far older than ours. EURO 2016 we saw the latest. Hooliganism it's called.
No. Primitive tribal wars were never based on sport or trivial offences. They were based on hard-core agendas; insults and offences against deeply held values.
We have come of age. We have become children.
Our ancestors, the "primitives", were a hundred times more mature than our modern selves.

The word primitive does not relate to any race.
relating to, denoting, or preserving the character of an early stage in the evolutionary or historical development of something.
"primitive mammals"
synonyms: ancient, earliest, first, prehistoric, antediluvian, antique, primordial, primeval, primal, primary, lower, original, proto-, ur-; More
very basic or unsophisticated in terms of comfort, convenience, or efficiency.
"the accommodation at the camp was a bit primitive"
synonyms: crude, simple, rough, basic, elementary, rough-hewn, rudimentary, undeveloped, unrefined, unsophisticated, rude, rough and ready, makeshift;
The behavior at the Digicel semi final was primitive, as it would be anywhere in the world, regardless of race.
You sound like a very bitter Papua New Guinean. Surprised you use a computer – one of those nasty inventions of the nasty white man.
Grow up !!

Second, I have gone beyond the original parameters of the blog. I still intend to review one of the Top 100 per week until I reach #1. Thanks to input from some of my loyal readers, I have included several additional review topics. 1. DUELING MOVIES - comparisons of related war movies 2. CRACKER? - reviews of movies that might be worthy of making the Top 100 3. SHOULD YOU READ IT? - reviews of foreign war movies with subtitles 4. FORGOTTEN GEM? - reviews of obscure war movies to determine if they deserve to be obscure 5. CLASSIC OR ANTIQUE? - does the war movie classic hold up for a modern audience

Sounds good to me. Although what I would like to read, and I think this is something you could do, would be comparisons between books and movies. I read a lot but tend to hardly every read books related to war. Apart from All quiet on the Western Front, Regeneration and a few others I haven't read all that many books that have been made into war movies. Deducing from your comments I think you often read the book as well. I know you didn't mean this post to be a "wish list" and I don't know how many people would enjoy it... Not only novels of course. I think I need to invite you one of these days for a guest post!ReplyDelete
That is a marvelous suggestion, but one of the things I admire about you is the incredible output of your blog. I feel swamped just doing what I am doing now and soccer season has not even started yet. Perhaps as a summer project. I am intrigued with how movie screenwriters change novels, many times for the worse. It would combine three of my loves - reading military history, writing, and watching war movies. I would love to exchange guest posts!ReplyDelete
We got time. It should always be fun as well. Doesn't make sense to put anyone under pressure. I wanted to do a post a while back after having been on a history teacher's blog who also wrote about movies. The title would be something like "Can War Movies be used in School". Then I realised--I have no clue. I am sure they watch The Downfall in schools in Germany and maybe Schindler's List. Whatever, that's a topic for you.ReplyDelete
I finally found her blog again.ReplyDelete
Thanks for the link. As far as movies in class, I show several in my Military History class. Nothing is better in showing what soldiers go through. Unfortunately, we have a no R-Rated movies policy which eliminates most realistic war movies. There are no exceptions for a class like mine. Before the policy I showed "Saving Private Ryan", "Glory", "Enemy at the Gates", "Platoon", and "When Trumpets Fade". Now I show the first Hornblower, "Master and Commander", "A Walk in the Sun", "All Quiet", and "Gettysburg".ReplyDelete
I do not show war movies in my American History class because I do not have the time and the movie would be too focused to benefit all my students. Instead I show "American Grafitti" and "King of the Hill".

Whether your available space is large or small, often the challenge is to find a truly versatile system that is cost effective as well as easy to use for the customer and your staff - and versatility is one of the key advantages of pegboard shelving. Adding shelves or extra hooks is simple, and will accommodate a changing display, keeping up with changing demand and products.
Pegs and hooks can be re-organised, taken away or added at any time, enabling you to have a display that can adapt to whatever you're supplying.
It doesn't have to be just a practical expression of necessity - it can also be an attractive display, showing artwork or colour pictures and photos when you want to demonstrate something relevant to your product. The element of surprise is always a good seller, and by arranging your pegboarding with some sort of visual impact, customers will take extra notice of the things that you are selling. You can use colour or shape in an innovative way, whatever the product.
One of the advantages of pegboard is that it allows you to see a wide range of goods at once, meaning that customers can easily make comparisons. They can quickly see difference in size and colour, without having to spend a lot of time picking up different products to examine them. Customer convenience is always a major consideration.
Shelving4Shops supply pegboard wall shelving, and gondolas as well as end bays, meaning that whatever the need and wherever you want to put your pegboarding we have the ideal unit to meet your requirements.
Give Shelving4Shops a call on 01455 221512 to discuss your pegboarding needs, or call in at our showroom at Hinckley Road, Wolvey, Leics where we can show you the range of shelving that we offer.

From Dilapidated Dresser to Stunning ShelfLeave a comment
September 18, 2013 by bridgitgillis
My son's dresser was a sad state. The drawers kept falling down no matter what I did to try and keep them in their place. One day I'd had enough and decided to turn this headache of a dresser into a shelf for my kitchen.
The first thing I did, after taking the drawers out, was to knock out the support board running vertically down the middle of the dresser. Every dresser is different, so you will have to judge for yourself what interior parts you want to keep, and what you can get away with discarding.
The next step was to build the shelf. I used some 1 x 2's my husband had laying around and a piece of plywood. I screwed the 1 x 3's into the three sides of the shelf in the shape of a C. After trimming my plywood, I placed it on top of the C frame and screwed it into the frame. I finished with some bright paint, and now I have a shelf!
*If you're super crafty, you could use the drawers from this project for another one. I have seen drawers used as box displays on walls, or screwed together as a sort of shelving unit.*
