Hi, folks!
It's 48F in Waldport. Not here in Eugene! It's been in the 30's and low 40's. There's a lot of fog. The lights in the parking lot are all haloed.
Yesterday we were all busy all day. I was in the merchant booth. Marius was doing his pins in the A&S area. Hatch and Travis were helping people load in and set up. Tempus drove to Waldport and back to get the stuff we forgot. By the time the end of the day rolled around we all just flaked out.
I've been seeing a lot of old friends and realizing just how long it's been! Some folks that I think of as "kids" now have grey hair!
Marius and Hatch were raving about the buffet last night. The hotel has gone all out to make this an incredible event. They did a whole spit-roasted wild boar!
Today is meetings and classes and merchanting. Tempus is running the merchant booth. Anja has several meetings in the morning and then her class and demo in the afternoon. Marcus has a class and some meetings. Of course, Court takes up all afternoon and sometimes the evening.

Today's plant is Nasturtium, Tropaeolum majus, (not watercress, which is true nasturtium). It's certainly not native to the PNW, but grows well here. I love the brilliant oranges and yellows of the flowers. They're yummy, too, with a slightly peppery taste, both leaf and flower and the seeds serve as a substitute for capers in pickles. The flowers stand for Victory in Battle; Patriotism and Affectation and are little used in magicks other than as symbols and foods for Ostara and Beltane celebrations because of their association with the Sun. They also can be used as a symbol for sacrifice to the larger good of soldiers, firemen and police, but are usually only seen at funerals in this context. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Tropaeolum_majus
49 BCE The date often given as the day that Julius Caesar famously crossed the Rubicon. – "As he crossed the river into Italy, he exclaimed "iacta alea est" (the die is cast) knowing full well that this action signified a declaration of war against Pompey. This gave rise to the common English-language expression 'to cross the Rubicon', meaning 'to pass a point of no return, one where an action taken commits a person irrevocably'."

Bright Capella high overhead, and bright Rigel in Orion's foot, are at almost the same right ascension — so they cross your sky's meridian at almost the same time (around 10 p.m. now, depending on how far east or west you live in your time zone). This means that whenever Capella passes its very highest, Rigel will always mark true south over your landscape.
Capella >>>> goes exactly through your zenith if you're at latitude 46° north: for instance Portland, Oregon; Montreal; central France; Tokyo.
Look for Comet Lovejoy — if you look within an hour or two after dark (for most of the world's mid-northern latitudes). The comet is in its brightest two weeks at 5th or 4th magnitude.

Celtic Tree Month of Beth/Birch, Dec 24 – Jan 20, Beith – (BEH), birch – The silver birch (Betula pendula Roth) is the most common tree birch in much of Europe. It grows up to 30 m (100 feet) high, but is more often found in spreading clumps on sandy soils. It is one of the first trees to colonize an area after a mature forest is cut; this is probably a large part of its symbolic connection with new beginnings. It is cultivated in North America, often under the name of weeping birch. The three trees in my front yard form root sprouts that would take over the bed where they are planted if I didn't cut them back. The common birch (B. pubescens Ehrh.) is almost as widespread as the silver birch, but grows primarily on acid or peaty soils. It can reach 20 m (65 feet) in height. Birches are members of the Birch family (Betulaceae). Curtis Clark

The shepherd, Rhaicos, coming from the meads,
The river-lawns where fed his snow-white sheep;
Stretching his length beneath a mossy oak,
Played, in the shade, upon his sylvan pipe
Tuneful to the hushed bird amid the boughs
That over-hung the bright grass and wild flowers, Now let a golden sunbeam slip! and now
A glimpse of blue sky shine! Idle, he played,
Till looking up ah, happy youth! what saw
He by his side, upon the smooth, starred moss?
A Nymph, a maid divine ! if those white limbs
The wild-rose lip, and deep, soft fall of hair
Bespoke immortal race! The polished leaf
Of oak, and acorns garlanded her brow, Of forest green and grey her succinct robe ;
And o'er her head a glittering, humming swarm,
On gauzy wing, of golden bees circled
And flitted: woodland odors breathed from her.
Smiling, she gazed upon the wondering youth!
But as he, boylike, longed to pluck the rose,
And trembled and glowed towards her she was gone! And but the pressure of her dainty foot
Upon the moss, remained to tell of her!
Unhappy Rhaicos ! while the slow dial passed
From shine to shade; and oped and closed the flowers ! Until the gods, with kindness looking down
From higher splendor, would befriend the youth :
And one warm-breathing summer noon, beneath
The branching oak, he spied the unwilling fair;
Her white feet 'mid lush grass and lilies blown;
And eagerness o'ercoming awe and dread
Born of her beauty, wooed her with soft words, And trembling passion. Waning, flushing, coy,
She listened: then raising her eyes, she spoke
"Wilt thou love, Rhaicos? and knowest thou whom
Thou dost sue here?" "Naught know I save that thou Art beautiful," replied the youth, "For more,
I'll pray the gods who made thee fair that thou
Mayest be kind !" "O rash and fond ! wilt love
A Hamadryad?" "Not a mortal maid!
Warm, blooming as thou art with lovely youth!
Nay, then I see that thou art all divine:
I swoon to touch that soft and flowerlike hand,
Or fondly gaze upon that bashful head;
For heavenly airs surround thee: nor hath maid
Voice like the music falls upon mine ear
So sing the Muses. Not a mortal maid?
Alas, have pity! and my love shall prove
As deathless as the great days of the gods
Who know not how sweet 'tis to- press some hand, Or gaze into eyes that look back their love
As I look deep now into dear blue depths!
O wilt thou love me? wilt thou even kiss?
Sweet, with thy promise make me as the gods !"
"Shepherd, and wilt renounce sweet mortal love,
That runs through changing seasons, from blythe May, Then summer, last autumnal days that end
Where lie the daisies, for my kiss? ne'er sue
A maid? bethink thee ere thou askest love.
Pure must the tie be that shall bind our hearts !
And dread the doom befalls inconstancy!" "By Zeus and twinkling stars of heaven, I swear
No life to have save what thy lips shall give;
My heart held captive by thy sungilt locks
Where summer lingers warm to kisses prest.
Nay, fear not ! be mine own as I am thine !" Swift came his vows! she harkened, for what maid
Denies belief when tears and sighs prove love?
And sank her blushing head upon his breast,
And o'er them, happy, in the breezy ways
The rosy Hours fluttered their light wings.
A dial of flowers marked their perfect days.
Like sunshine through the veins her presence was, Or as the blowing of the south wind sweet
From fleecy April cloud o'er fields of flowers :
And bounteous life and beauty were her gifts,
And gracious blisses Nature's self bestows.
Thus exiled, earth-born hearts desire a love
Beyond Youth's first shy stars: draw heaven down, As slipped divinity from sparkling mists
Before the shepherd startled unaware
By rose-bloom, dazzling wire of locks bespread,
A glory floating 'tween her foot and earth
Else 'twas the crocus on the greensward sprung
Idalian Aphrodite, runs the tale.
They met at sunset, when the daffodil sky
A throbbing star held, and the woods were still,
And balm-dews dropped from leafy branch and spray : And "Love," she said, at parting, "Do not push
Thy bride from thy thoughts when dost leave my side
Wait, Rhaicos! wait or thou shall't lose thy kiss! Think then how lonely I await thee here,
When woods are dim ; and come to-morrow eve,
An hour before the love-star lights the sky."
She spoke, nor turned away from his embrace,
That fond and faithful, stilled her gentle sighs.
Ah! luckless shepherd! better hadst thou ne'er
Known Music's charm, and silver-dropping showers !
For skilled was Rhaicos both with reed and song; And 'mid his comrades laid along the sward,
Each flower-crowned and friendlv-emulous,
He knew not when the twilight hour drew near,
Nor saw the windy peaks flushed by the sun
Ere it sank in the misty ocean baths,
Nor loosed the arm about his neck, nor heard
The tongues of sheep-bells from the cloudy hills, Forgot the hour assigned and bliss in store ;
But prompted by his rich and bounteous love
Drew inspiration sweet from secret springs,
Her leaf-hid charms and beauty undivined.
And as he paused for breath a yellow bee,
A bustling elf of May-dews, cowslip leas,
Buzzed o'er his head and hummed about his lips
And driv'n away returned with louder din !
Till wearied, Rhaicos roughly brushed it off,
Beat back the wingy messenger of love,
That wheeled with angry dart and flew away
Towards evening woods and the Thessalian oak.
Twas wounded and one fairy wing hung torn!
But to the Dryad, faithful, it returned
And showed its bruised wing to her gentle eyes.
A shriek burst from her sad lips at the sight ;
And mournful breeze of lamentation filled
The green aisles of the distant, recessed woods
Then looking up Rhaicos saw the sweet star
Set in the blue of heaven; and his heart
Divining her despairing cry, he turned,
Stumbling with hasty footsteps through the fern,
And ran through green glooms of the forest glades, Forded the runnel trickling through wood-ways,
And found the oak the hoary trunk lay prone,
With vine and hawthorn uptorn by its fall
And shattered branches strewn upon the sod :
Felled by no wind that ever blew from heaven.
Nor answered gentle accents to his calls:
Nor light and life revisited his eyes ! – (Saunders & Otley 1838)
Imbolc Magick – Imbolc Collected Tidbits
From: http://www.geocities.com/SouthBeach/Marina/4870/celtic.html
Imbolc was the second of the Celtic seasonal festivals, covering the months of February, March and April. The chief rituals were carried out on 1 February and had strong associations with fertility. In pastoral terms, they were linked with lambing and the lactation of ewes. The festival was also devoted to the powerful triple-goddess, Brigid. In her different aspects, she was influential in the fields of healing, poetry and smithcraft. Poets regarded her as the source of literary inspiration and her protection was frequently invoked by mothers in childbirth. In Ireland, she was much revered by the filidh (sages), who recognized her gift of prophecy. The cult of Brigid was probably connected with the worship of Brigantia, a northern British deity, and also with the Irish saint of the same name. It can be no coincidence that the latter's feast day is celebrated on 1 February, the same day as Imbolc.
From: http://members.tripod.com/~Banshee_Sidhe/seasons.html
Imbolc – (EM-bowl'g) – February 1st
Imbolc is the Sabbat that celebrates and honors the Goddess as the bride-to-be of the returning Sun God. The soon arrival of the plant life whispering beneath the soil, the full warmth of the Sun God being birthed from the Imbolg Virgin Goddesses womb, the promise of fertility that is celebrated on Beltaine, are all honored on this sacred day. Witches typically charge and annoint seeds that are harbored by their hearths until Ostara, the day in which they are planted. Imbolg is also known as Oimelc, Brid's Day, Bride's Day and Imbolc. Imbolc colors are white, pale yellow and silver. Symbols are candles, grain, burrowing animals, ewes and marigolds. Dieties for this sabbat are Gods as Young Men, Boys or infants, Virgin, Maiden or Child Goddesses.
As the days' lengthening becomes perceptible, many candles are lit to hasten the warming of the earth and emphasize the reviving of life. "Imbolc" is from Old Irish, and may mean "in the belly", and Oimelc, "ewe's milk", as this is the lambing time. It is the holiday of the Celtic Fire Goddess Brigid, whose threefold nature rules smithcraft, poetry/inspiration, and healing. Brigid's fire is a symbolic transformation offering healing, visions, and tempering. Februum is a Latin word meaning purification — naming the month of cleansing. The thaw releases waters (Brigid is also a goddess of holy wells) – all that was hindered is let flow at this season.

Brigid's cross
A well-known custom connected with this saint is the plaiting of reed crosses ('Brigid's crosses') today, and these are supposed to protect the home, the harvest and farm animals. The tradition derives from the story that she was plaiting rush crosses while nursing a dying pagan chieftain. He asked her about this and her explanation led to his conversion to Christianity.
Her symbolism as a probable sun goddess may be found in the form of these Brigid's crosses, which are widdershins swastikas, found widely around the world as home-protecting talismans, reaching Ireland by the second century, BCE.
In the Scottish Highlands, an effigy corn dolly of Bride made by the young woman from the previous year's corn sheaf would be carried around the village, and gifts were collected for the Bride Feast. The ritual was completely matriarchal, the door of the feasting place being barred to the men of the community who had to plead humbly to honour Bride. Straw cradles called Bride's Beds were also made for today among the Celtic peoples. A wand, candle or other phallic object would be laid across the dolly and Brigid ('the Bride') was invited to come for her bed was ready. If her blankets are rumpled in the morning, it was seen as a good omen. Brigid obviously has fertility associations far beyond her legendary persona as a convent Mother Superior.

We are moving and I finally need to let go of my 69 Midget. I have owned this car since 1987 (31 years), having purchased it while living in San Diego. It moved east with me in 1990 and underwent a complete restoration. All rusted parts were welded, most of the metal that might get wet was coated with POR-15, wheels sandblasted and repainted. The rolling shell was repainted in a Midnight Blue (a vintage Jaguar color). It took second place in the Midget category at Larz Anderson MG Day in 1993.
The car has not been driven much since then, and has been off the road and stored for about 5 years. Only bad things happen when you store your car for that long. I replaced the fuel tank and sending unit. Carbs were recently rebuilt and work well, but presently are off the car. There are new brake, clutch master and clutch slave cylinders waiting to be installed. The front end has been rebuilt. All gauges worked last I checked, but that was a while ago. The engine is a 1970 engine that had been replaced when I bought the car. The odometer reading is irrelevant for cars this old. There is an upgraded, non-original (and loud) starter, and there is a Lumenition electronic ignition installed.
I am listing the car now but don't need to sell it immediately. But if you wanted to tow it away and do this work yourself and save some money I am listing it. Also, I am selling the hydraulic storage lift for an extra $1000 if sold with the MG. Otherwise I will sell the lift alone for $1500.
Please contact me by text at 978-758-0602 or by email at [email protected](dot)net.

I have owned this fun buggy since summer 2014. It drove great. I stored it for over a year. Just got it out. Mechanic JE Robison cleaned carb and points. It passed 2017 state inspection. I planned to sell it asap. I drove it today. The storage was hard on it and it started a little rough but drove fine. Waxed it. Went to move it. She turns over like a charm but won't ignite. Seems like a simple fix but I just don't have time to deal with it and am not mechanically inclined. If you can start her, you can have her for $5000.00. Firm.
Odometer: 58781
Her history:
I have only driven it 134 miles since I've had it. The body is in good shape with minimal signs of any rust. Paint is good. Not flawless but I just clayed it and it does still take a shine. It has a new soft top. When I took ownership of it I had much of it rewired and some mechanical problems corrected by a professional mechanic who specializes in European cars, JE Robison Auto in Springfield MA. I have all the receipts from Robison.
Replaced by JE Robison Service Co. in Springfield, MA
What it needs:
I paid $5000 for her in 2014. I put $8649 into her. Granted, $5700 was labor. But $3000 for parts! I'd like to at least get my orignal $5000 back!

Introduction: Photo Transfer to Wood
After multiple attempts to transfer an image to wood I finally found the best way. I tried inkjet on freezer paper and inkjet on label paper, neither one turned out. The best way to transfer an image is to print out the image on regular paper, glue to surface on wood and then simply wash off with water.
Teacher Notes
Teachers! Did you use this instructable in your classroom?
Add a Teacher Note to share how you incorporated it into your lesson.
Step 1: Select and Prep Piece of Wood
Select your piece of wood that you would like to transfer to the image too.
You will need to sand the surface on the side you want the image.
Measure dimensions of wood to input into Photoshop.
Step 2: Edit Photo in Photoshop
In this step, you will need to edit your photo in Photoshop.
Enter in the dimensions and scale your image to fit.
You will also need to make sure to mirror your image in Photoshop.
Step 3: Print and Paste
Put a thick layer of Liquitex Glazing Medium onto wood.
Print your image on regular printing paper and paste onto wood, image facing wood.
Use a straight edge to smooth surface.
Step 4: Let It Dry
Let it dry overnight.
Step 5: Rinse and Wipe Off
Rinse under water, slowly wiping off paper with your hand. Only do this under water for a couple of minutes.
Do NOT rub hard
I used a rag to rub off the excess paper.
Let it dry overnight.
Step 6: Set Image
After letting it dry overnight, make sure it is dry.
Spray Clear Aerosol Lacquer on image evenly. You can spray multiple times, letting it dry between each spray.

Great instructable! I'm just curious if you can do the same with a colored photo? I think I'll make this as a valentines present.
It should work with colored photos without an issue. I would suggest using a light colored piece of wood to make sure all of your colors show. Good Luck!
I know this is going to sound like a stupid question but does the hardness of the wood effect the final image at all? And does does modge podge really work just as well. thanks in advance.Thanks for a good ible. jim
I know this technique only with using laserprinted images, color works very well there. But what kind of print did you use? Is it possible with bubblejet-print? I think as bubblejet-ink is waterbased it will all blur and partly just wash away without leaving the image on the plate. But I just try it. I used Gel-medium. Is that Liquitex glaze medium better to fix the image of bubblejet-print?
I used laser jet. I have only tried the glazing medium which seems to be doing a good job. I just did two other image transfers on wood and they both turned out great.
As I thought. If not laserjet it does'nt work. I think I will have a try with glazing medium next. Maybe it's better than Gel-medium.
Will regular elmers glue work?
Regular elmers glue won't work for this. Once dry elmers is still water soluable so the image will dissolve. You can use Modge Podge as well as gel medium to create image transfers.
I have not tried that. But you can try it out on a piece of scrap wood.

[A] new council project designed to raise awareness of the benefits and barriers to breastfeeding is being extended across South Lakeland.
By signing up to the Breastfeeding Friendly Scheme, local businesses and organisations can show their support for mothers and help them to feel more confident.
After a successful trial in Ulverston, where several local cafes and restaurants have been keen to get involved, South Lakeland District Council (SLDC) is now promoting the project further afield.
Alison Coward, SLDC's Public Protection Officer, said: "Breastfeeding is proven to have benefits for mums and babies. The antibodies in breastmilk offer protection against numerous childhood illnesses and benefits continue into adulthood. Mums can't always predict when they will next need to feed their baby and the NHS recommends that a baby is fed whenever they show signs of hunger, so mums need to be ready to feed wherever they are.
"However, concerns about negative public attitudes have been identified as one of the main barriers to breastfeeding. By signing up to our scheme, businesses and organisations will show that they welcome and support breastfeeding families by displaying an easily recognisable sticker and sharing information with their staff and volunteers about why it is so important."
The right to breastfeed in any public place is protected by law. It is illegal to ask a woman to stop breastfeeding, cover up or leave a public place such as a café, shop or on public transport.
Research suggests that most women have only positive experiences of breastfeeding outside of their home, often without anyone even noticing.
"For a new mum breastfeeding in public can be a daunting task but the more support communities can offer, the easier it becomes," added Alison.
To join the Breastfeeding Friendly scheme, business owners must sign a declaration agreeing that they and their staff will support a breastfeeding mother on their premises, offering a seat and a glass of water where possible.
A register of local businesses that have joined the scheme so far is held at www.southlakeland.gov.uk/breastfeedingfriendly
For more information and to join the scheme please email [email protected] or call 01539 733 333.

Mayor signs proclamation for Child Passenger Safety Week, Sept. 14-20
September 15, 2014 Leave a comment Go to comments
Did you know that motor vehicle crashes are the leading cause of death for children between the ages of one and 12 years old? Fortunately, using a properly-installed car seat for your child can reduce the chance of a fatality during a car crash by 71 percent for infants and 54 percent for toddlers.
To help ensure the safety of young passengers, the National Highway Traffic Safety Administration created Child Passenger Safety week, an initiative to educate parents and caregivers on which car seats are best for their children and how to install and use them properly.
Mayor Mark Spradlin signed the Proclamation during a ceremony in the City Hall Council Chambers Monday morning to name the week of September 14 through 20, 2014 as Child Passenger Safety Week in Guthrie. Along with the Mayor was Fire Chief Eric Harlow and Heather Ward with the Logan County Health Department.
In recognition of this important initiative, the Guthrie Fire Department would like to encourage Guthrie citizens to come to the fire station at 209 East Springer for a free child safety seat inspection at any time.

is that the 12 year old in the center?

Sarasota if filled with statues/sculptures! Just in googling for this blog I found stories about the Museum of Art and Whimsy, The Art Center Sarasota's Statue Gardens, Sarasota Season of Sculpture and one that everyone is very familiar with the Unconditional Surrender kissing statue near Marina Jacks! I must admit I don't always understand some of the choices of sculpture they choose to display along the bay. The Unconditional Love statue attracts a lot of tourists, but I'm puzzled how a statue that is based on a photo taken in New York found its way to the bay front in Sarasota. Oh well.
I found this silly alligator art/sculpture on Palm Ave. recently while walking around in downtown Sarasota. It's not my favorite piece of downtown art but it did fit the theme "Zig Zag." Because of that it will earn a place in my weekly photo blog. Maybe next year one of our themes will match some of the other statues that rank higher on my list!

Thank you to all who joined the #KenyaMocha live stream yesterday – we had a great time! Whether you were tuning in online via twitter or stopping by the office to be a part of the action, we are so thankful for your time to hear the hearts of our team members while they share their passion for New Dawn, education, and the Mocha Club.
In case you missed it – the live stream broadcast is available to watch now! Listen in while Annie, Lindsay, Jessi, and Lizzie answer how they became part of the #KenyaMocha team, why they started blogging, and why they feel like they need Africa? We laughed, we cried, and we had a great time so go check it out!
Over the broadcast, we encouraged viewers to join us in supporting Mocha Club and New Dawn by giving up a few mochas a month. A school can only grow and flourish when there is a dedicated and supportive staff on hand. The amazing teachers are what make New Dawn the beacon of hope that it is to the local community. Without these teachers, the school simply can not operate. Currently, while much of the school is making ground-breaking advancements, funds for the incredible staff is it's greatest need. We want to support these teachers and continue the big impact they have on the students of New Dawn. If just 31 of us gave $18 a month, we could provide 1 teacher with the necessary funds they need to continue to teaching for one year.
In Kenya, a teacher's average salary is $6500; compare this to an average salary of a teacher in the States at $55,000. For our New Dawn teachers, it's more than the salary; it's the lives that they are impacting everyday through education.

Coated Aluminum Coil Mechanical Behavior
Color coated aluminum tape is the surface of the coating after the treatment of aluminum and aluminum alloy strip, aluminum and aluminum alloy plate with deep processing products. Because it has a good flat, corrosion, decoration, mechanical properties, it is favored by the market, Coated Aluminum Coil is widely used in building decoration, food packaging, electronic appliances, printing, transportation and other fields. Color coated aluminum is divided into more high-end fluorocarbon color coated and low-end polyester color coating. China's Guangdong, Jiangsu, Shanghai, Shandong is the focus of aluminum industry market. At present, the status quo of China's color coated aluminum is the excess production capacity of ordinary products, high-tech, high-precision, high-quality products, Coated Aluminum Coil production capacity is insufficient, and thus also caused a large number of imported situation.
First of all, we look at the food packaging with color coated aluminum. In the food packaging which is mainly used to make food cans, mainly including cans, cans and food boxes and packaging sealed bags. To pull the ring, Coated Aluminum Coil for example, the current aluminum can be divided into three categories: the first category for the eight pudding, beer; the second category for the beverage; the third category for the dry powder. Which for the eight pudding and the largest beer and the highest capacity, Coated Aluminum Coil the market demand is also the largest. For dry powder and easy to pull the lid and pull the lowest material, the market demand is also minimal.
Each industry has its own life cycle, painted aluminum is no exception. The introduction of painted aluminum is in the early 1990s. At that time mainly rely on foreign imports, Coated Aluminum Coil the high price of the product. Growth period is: after 2000, with the continuous progress of technology, quality and constantly improve. Because as color steel, in a slow growth period. 2008 financial crisis, Coated Aluminum Coil after 2010, gradually become mature.
From the food-grade color coated aluminum market share: Shandong Nanshan Aluminum is the only professional production of aluminum enterprises, Coated Aluminum Coil is the world's only shortest distance from the most complete aluminum industry chain, the company has food packaging color coated aluminum production line 2, production capacity 60,000 tons, the market share of products accounted for about 33%. Southwest Aluminum Group is China's largest production scale, the most advanced technology and equipment, Coated Aluminum Coil the most complete variety specifications of large-scale comprehensive aluminum processing enterprises, with two coating production lines, packaging with color coated aluminum production capacity of 50,000 tons. As the earliest in the tank cover material R & D and production enterprises, the market share of about 20%.
The future of color coated aluminum in the direction of technology research and development is to achieve the production of more than 2mm color coated aluminum; with high-quality paint production technology and production base; equipment as much as possible to reach more than 20,000 tons of high-capacity units gradually increased, Coated Aluminum Coil Color coated aluminum market share; Coated Aluminum Coil adjust the layout of color coated aluminum, making the southwest, northwest and other remote areas can also have the local color coated aluminum production line to meet the different needs of different regions.

March of Inspiring Mums - Beth Elsdon
Our "March of Inspiring Mums" interview series celebrates women who are doing some amazing things, whether through business, a campaign or just being fabulous!
Today we are featuring the lovely Beth Elsdon, mum to two children, Jack, 7 and Polly who is 5 and they live in the beautiful city of York. Beth is the owner and curator of Walter & May, an online store supporting independent brands across the UK and she has just opened her first bricks and mortar shop in York.
Today she shares with us how her love for all things creative never left her despite a career in a very different industry. As many mums know the juggle of corporate life and children can be very tricky so she created her own business around her passions, which was also flexible around her young family.
1. Tell me a little about yourself and how you got into the job you're now doing?
I worked for 11 years in the oil and gas industry but have a creative background. I actually wanted to be an art teacher when I was younger and studied art at Uni. I unfortunately didn't complete my degree as I was suffering from an eating disorder during my studies. Fast forward, erm, quite a few years, I was looking to find my creative groove again but that part of me that wanted to teach and support people never went away. When I had Jack and Polly, the travel involved in my corporate job didn't fit with the family life and flexibility I wanted, so I decided to set up Walter & May. An online platform to support independent brands and designers alongside which I offered coaching, mentoring and practical advice on photography, social media and business operations. And here we are! We are a small business but growing and expanding month on month.
Tell me one interesting fact about you?
I have travelled to Brazil, Singapore, Norway, Germany, France, Russia, Amsterdam with work, but my favourite place is still York!
I love to paint – this is what I used to do in my spare time and sold a few of my paintings when I lived in London. I hope to get back to painting one day!
Please can you share 3 tips for managing the juggle of motherhood, life and business?
Planning – No matter what it is, try and plan. Block off time for family and for work and don't let either interfere with the other. Family time is precious and needs protecting. But so is work.
Be realistic – Manage your own expectations. Be realistic about the 'productive' time you have and use it wisely. Work out when you tend to be less productive and use that for things that don't' take too much brain power. Get to know your work flow both at work and at home and work with it, not against it.
Don't compare – Everyone is at a different stage of family life, work life and business journey. Don't compare your story to theirs, we all have different goals and it's important to celebrate your own achievements rather than berating yourself for not achieving what others have, who are perhaps 2 years ahead in their business journey.
What's the best piece of advice you could give a new mum?
Go easy on yourself and learn to accept and ask for help when you need it.
Colour can make a real difference to our mood - what's your favourite colour? And how does it make you feel when you wear it?
Oooh a tricky one! I love pink but don't wear much of it. I do love to wear yellow though and feel very fresh and happy when I wear it. My favourite dress is from Oliver Bonas '17 and is a lovely pale yellow.
What's your favourite activity to do with your children?
Jack and Polly are so creative, so I love to have a project with them. This months school topic is pirates so we have made pirate flags and a cardboard pirate ship is on the list for the weekend!
What do you like to do for some me-time?
Hmmm, I enjoy just being on my own. That time is so valuable so whatever I'm doing, having a coffee, walking the dog, doing the supermarket shop – its all valuable.
Me time doesn't have to be spent at a spa or in a bubble bath – just being with yourself is important.
Beth your story is so inspirational - thanks so much for sharing it with us. Overcoming an eating disorder and going back to your passions to create something close to your heart and flexible around your young family is amazing - I love your beautiful Walter & May website and am delighted that Halia Rose is stocked on there alongside some gorgeous gifts. Good luck with the bricks and mortar shop too!

Discussion Starter • #1 •
My beautiful new 4mo, 5-speed 1.8t passat wagon now has 1,400 miles on it and I have just begun to drive it with a bit more spirit. Yesterday I noticed, in the midst of Manhattan evasive maneuvers, a strange sound following brief bursts of full throttle at about 2000-3000 rpm. After a quick release of the accelerator from the full throttle position at the above rpm range, there is a "trailing off" noise sounding something like a scraping metalic rasping exhallation; almost like a metalic wheeze. It lasts scarcly 1-2 seconds. I've never owned a turbo equipped vehicle and, I wonder if the sound is simply the turbo spinning down after the full throttle burst. I don't notice the sound from 1000-2000 rpm when perhaps the turbo hasn't kicked in. And, I don't hear it after 3000 rpm, --perhaps becuase the engine noise drowns it out? Is this type of sound normal for the 1.8t engine? Might I have a problem? Please help shed light on this if possible. I'm worried about my new baby! Thank you so much.

The winter months can cause a number of problems for truckers. Winter driving is especially difficult because you will have to battle a combination of snow, ice, and high winds. Here are NTB's top picks for survival items that you need to keep in your truck this winter!
Although some states will get more snow than others, the Midwest typically has pretty consistent snowfall. This being said, a great way to combat unexpected snowfalls is to keep a small shovel in your truck. This will save you time if your back tires get stuck in snow!
Ice Scraper and Snowbrush
In addition to a small shovel, tools to remove snow and ice are a necessity to keep in your truck this winter. Snow and ice can build up pretty quickly, so making sure your windshield is taken care of properly is a must.
Emergency Kit
An emergency kit will help ensure that you are prepared for any driving situation that may experience. This can include tools, first aid supplies, emergency batteries, etc. You can build your own emergency kit, or purchase one at a truck stop. In addition to a kit, you should make sure that you have jumper cables in your truck always, as the cold weather makes it harder for engines to start!
The winter months bring on more severe driving conditions, so make sure to keep these survival items in your truck to ensure a safe trip!

Are you looking to brighten up your teeth?
At your Ann Arbor, MI, dentist, Dr. Craig Blogin has what you need. Forget those days of you covering up your smile because of yellow and/or stained teeth. With your Ann Arbor, MI, dentist, your smile can become several shades whiter.
But how did they become yellow and stained anyway?
Part of the reason our teeth become discolored is because of age. Some other reasons include:
- Smoking
- Chewing tobacco
- Drinking coffee and/or tea
- Eating certain foods, such as blueberries
So how will my dentist make my teeth whiter?
Your dentist will use a device designed to keep your cheeks and lips open is placed your mouth. This device will ensure the tissue in your mouth does not come in contact with the gel the dentist will use to whiten your teeth. The doctor will then apply gel on the surface of your teeth.
The in-office procedure is convenient and doesn't take long. The gel is left on your teeth for a few minutes and, if necessary, a laser is used to speed up the process. Dr. Blogin will remove the gel, then reapply the teeth whitening gel several times throughout the one-hour treatment.
Forget those over-the-counter teeth whitening kits. They don't contain high concentrations of vital components such as hydrogen or carbamide peroxide. Dr. Blogin and his team, on the other hand, know exactly how to handle, use, and oversee the effects of teeth whitening gels containing these materials. This will allow you to have whiter teeth in a shorter amount of time compared to the home kits and you'll have the added benefit of it being safe since dental experts will be taking care of you.
If your dental stains are severe though, you may need more than one session. This decision will depend on the doctor's assessment of your teeth.
Other Teeth Whitening Techniques:
- Tooth-whitening toothpaste, which removes stains
- Whitening strips, which lighten up your teeth
If you have you have any questions or concerns about getting a whiter smile, call your Ann Arbor, MI, dental office today at (734) 975-6700.

THE head of one of the region's leading cancer centres last night revealed it is suffering from serious staff shortages.
Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology, which treats patients from across Merseyside, Cheshire, North Wales and the Isle of Man, needs to increase the number of consultant oncologists by 30pc and the number of therapy radiographers by 10pc.
And the centre's chief executive, Geoff Greenwood, claims if more staff are not found there will be an impact on waiting times for patients.
He admits that existing staff are being placed under "tremendous and unnecessary workload pressure".
"Clinics are already increasing in size and our staff are working extremely long hours."
He added that the average wait for parents receiving radiotherapy is currently around four-weeks, with a few waiting up to six-weeks: "We aim to keep the waiting times as short as possible to reduce the stress on patients.
"If we do not recruit it will be difficult for us to hold on to these waiting times."
Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology is currently looking at a number of initiatives to encourage more people to look at NHS speciality jobs as a career.
The centre is working with universities and with students in schools to promote the work of therapy radiographers.
But Mr Greenwood says when students do join courses many of them leave after a short time.
"It is a difficult course and the fall-out rate is high. We sometimes find as many as 40pc of students drop out.
"There is, however, tremendous job satisfaction to be achieved working in such a post and most students find as soon as they pass the first year, it becomes easier," Mr Greenwood added.
Clatterbridge Centre for Oncology sees an average of 7,000 new patients every year but this figure increases by around six per-cent each year.
There are currently 18 consultant oncologists at the CCO. It is hoped a further six can be recruited during the next three years.
And the centre aims to employ an additional 12 therapy radiographers to add to the existing 60.

Phacilitate Leaders World and World Stem Cell Summit Announce New Updates: Visionary Speakers, Programs and Agenda
This year, Phacilitate:TALKS, sponsored by Anemocyte, will give attendees an opportunity to connect with international leaders in a new, engaging and inspiring format.
A payer's perspective on CAR-T pricing and reimbursement with Detlev Parow, Head of Patient Care Management at DAK-Gesundheit
Ahead of his discussion regarding the next 15 years for advanced therapies at Phacilitate Leaders World 2019, Phacilitate caught up with Michael Meyers of T.R. Winston & Company, to find out what key takeaways attendees can expect from his session.
The realities of administering advanced therapies in the clinic is our industry's next big challenge. So, what is the clinician's perspective on what's needed to effectively and safely bring advanced therapies to patients?
The Common Technical Document can sometimes be a bit daunting. As a fundamental part of the approval process for your product, whether you are a huge multinational corporation or a small biotech company, it is essential to know how to use the CTD.
Chris Bravery of Advanced Biologicals gave us some insights on how to successfully complete the CTD.
In an effort to bring more awareness to pediatric cancer immunotherapy research, the Emily Whitehead Foundation and London-based Phacilitate are joining together to hold a one of a kind fundraising event in Miami, Florida on January 24, 2019.
3D bioprinting is a nascent but promising digital and biotechnological game changer in the healthcare industry. A guest post by Senem Simsek, PhD.
The wait is over! Global leaders in advanced therapies, regenerative medicine and the stem cell field can register now for the co-located Phacilitate Leaders World and World Stem Cell Summit (WSCS) at the Hyatt Regency Miami, January 22-25, 2019. Early Bird Rate Ends November 15th, 2018!
Based on the success of the co-located World Stem Cell Summit and Phacilitate Leaders World conferences in January 2018, the Regenerative Medicine Foundation (RMF) and Phacilitate announced they will partner again, combining four major international meetings at the Hyatt Regency Miami, January 22-25, 2019.
Could outcome-based annuity payments, in which cell and gene therapies are paid for over-time as benefits materialise, increase patient access to these innovative and potentially revolutionary therapies?

Selecting the right flooring for your home can be confusing. Keep in mind that flooring adds value to your home, and it's absolutely necessary to consider durability and maintenance. Hardwood flooring or solid timber flooring has been a classic choice for homes, and it does have a few pros and cons. In this guide, we are discussing all aspects worth knowing about solid hardwood flooring, including a check at what it means to choose this option over engineered wood.
Solid hardwood vs. engineered wood
Solid timber flooring is 100% hardwood. On the other hand, engineered wood comes with a top layer of hardwood, which is placed on an engineered wood surface. The core of engineered wood usually includes soft plywood, and there can be many layers, depending on the quality you choose. Hardwood is much more durable compared to engineered wood, and yes, it also adds more value to your home. To be more precise, you are likely to fetch a better price for your home with hardwood floor than engineered wood. In terms of pricing, hardwood is obviously more expensive and lasts for years, while engineered wood is inexpensive and is best suited for rooms with limited foot traffic.
Pros and cons
There is no denying that engineered wood is getting popular by the day, but many experts would still prefer hardwood. With hardwood, you can create a natural home, and while the material itself is susceptible to scratching, proper installation and finishing can prevent the same. From the point of reselling the property, hardwood is a much better investment for sure. Refinishing hardwood is also easier, and you can maintain the look of the flooring for years to come. It is also possible to manage the fading that many people consider to be a disadvantage of hardwood.
As for the cons, hardwood is expensive. It is not the ideal choice for every budget, and if you don't choose a good vendor, there are high chances of compromises on the quality of wood being used.
Final word
Both hardwood and engineered wood are great for contemporary homes, and it depends on what you are looking for and your budget. Find a good installation company, take their inputs as what may work best for your home, and ask for an estimate, so as to compare the choices better. It is almost impossible to replicate the charm of hardwood to be fair.

Much have been written and said about the use of bookmarklets as a nifty and fast way of achieving specific things with your browser without the unnecessary need to install extensions that increase browser bloat and takes up a lot of memory to run, even though you are only using them 10% of the time. The advantages of bookmarklets are also that it is cross browser compatible (most of them anyway) and is the only method of adding more functionality to Chrome, as the extensions community for Google's browser has not yet gained the critical mass compared to Firefox.
A repository of Bookmarklets
However, getting your hands on useful bookmarklets have proven to be a less than friendly experience. Google searches brings up only a handful of relevant results and the majority of them are scattered all over the web. This is where Bookmarklet Directory comes into place. As more and more people come to understand and appreciate the simplicity of bookmarklets, there will be a growing number of user-generated bookmarklets and Bookmarklet Directory aims to collect and rate each submitted bookmarklet in a central repository, much like what Userscripts.org has done for Greasemonkey scripts.
There are a huge number of bookmarklets currently on the site, running on a diverse range of platforms including Firefox, Chrome, Safari and even the iPhone version of Safari. The site categorizes into highest rated, newest and also most popular. You can also browse by tags. However, missing is the option to browse by function, which makes it a tad bit difficult if you are looking for a specific way of achieving something via bookmarklet. The search function attempts to bridge this though.
Being so Web 2.0, Bookmarklet Directory also has a Twitter feed which you can follow @bookmarklets.
