I like yours better than the original :) Maybe one day I'll be a bit less chicken about knits and try this dress... you made it look so easy

I have two questions:
1. Could I use this pattern for the Leah dress? I have a fear of sewing without patterns but really want to make that dress.
2. Could you give me a measurement on the bodice. I printed it out at 100% but it looks small to me. You mentioned in your post something about 7" at the bodice but I wasn't sure if you were talking about the actual bodice or the width of the skirt where it attaches to the bodice.
Thanks, I can't wait to start this. I have a huge fear of knits but am trying to get over it!! - May 26, 2011 at 5:07 AM

Very cute! Looks just like the inspiration dress!
- May 26, 2011 at 5:23 AM
I've been itching to knock-off a Tea Collection dress forever, and now I may just have the courage to do so! Thanks SO much for sharing your tutorial - it's the perfect playdate dress!

- Krystina said...
very cute, Jess! I have one question... where did you find the 2T label? I've been wondering where to find similar ones for the clothes I make my kids.

You read my mind. I was just searching yesterday for a tute on making a simple knit dress.
You rock! - May 26, 2011 at 7:03 AM
- Taylor {Sew Much Love} said...
You never fail to impress me Jess!
Do you have any tips on sewing on the bias tape without pulling the fabric too much? Last time I tried to sew bias tape on knit it stretched and "lettuced" on me. - May 26, 2011 at 7:05 AM
- Dixie said...
Way cuter than the inspiration dress.

I think yours is better! Love all the outfits you sew up for your kids. Inspiring, to say the least!

ARGH! I love this sooo much! I've been wanting to sew a tea collection dress, too, so this is PERFECT. Cannot wait to make it for my 3 year old...thanks for the tutorial!

- Emily said...
This dress looks great!! :) I love that you were able to reuse a shirt. I also like the contrast trim. To those making their own patterns, make sure the shirt you're using for a pattern and the fabric you're making your dress with have similar stretch (or add extra material as necessary). It took me a while to figure that out. ;)

Gorgeous! I want one for my little girl!!
I have basically the same question as this:
Taylor {Sew Much Love} said...
You never fail to impress me Jess!
Do you have any tips on sewing on the bias tape without pulling the fabric too much? Last time I tried to sew bias tape on knit it stretched and "lettuced" on me.
Anytime I sew with knit I ended up with it stretching and then gathering up together/puckering. Any suggestions on how to sew so it remains flat??
THanks! - May 26, 2011 at 10:54 AM
- Laura @ ON{thelaundry}LINE said...
yay, I just love the shape on this dress! Too cute! Simple and sweet, perfect!!!
- May 26, 2011 at 11:40 AM

Yay!!! A pattern! Thank you!
It's printed and I just have to get to joanns to ge ta ball point needle..... - May 26, 2011 at 11:47 AM
- Liz said...
So cute - I LOVE tea clothes, and I can't wait to try this. I also have to get braver about knits!
- May 26, 2011 at 12:15 PM
- Jess said...
OK: to answer some questions (since I always forget something while finishing up at 11 at night, lol)
@ Casey: This dress is slightly different than the Leah tunic, it has different sleeves and the Leah tunic has a rounded bodice, but it would look similar, yes. The bodice measures 5" across the bottom-equaling a 20" chest. The reason the skirt is 7" across is to allow for the gathers.
@Krystina: I got my labels on Etsy and love them! You can find the shop here: http://www.etsy.com/shop/worldsalelabel
@Taylor and It's Sew For You: I use spray starch to make my bias tape and it helps so much to keep the knit from curling and stretching. Also, pressing with your iron after sewing it on kinda of shrinks up the stitches and everything kinda falls into place.
@ Emily: Great tip, thanks! - May 26, 2011 at 12:58 PM
- Jennifer said...
As always - I love it! I also love that your little girl is the same size as mine so I can use your template! THANK YOU
- May 26, 2011 at 1:57 PM
- Sascha said...
Oh that dress looks just like the one from Tea. Even better actually. When it popped up in my Google reader I totally thought it was one of theirs! I recently got their catalog and have bookmarked a zillion things to make one day. This may just have to come to the top of my list. It looks soooo awesome. My problem is that I can't use thrifted tees since I need to make it in a size 7. Good thing I've got a knit fabric hoarding problem ;)
- May 26, 2011 at 2:03 PM
- Mae said...
It came out great! Quite cute.
- May 26, 2011 at 5:01 PM

I'm just in awe at how many cute things you whip out! Seriously! You are super-woman!

- Maria said...
thanks for sharing! it's a lovely dress
- May 26, 2011 at 9:06 PM
- EHC said...
No need to apologize for only having the pattern size you used available to share; it would take an insane amount of time to create multiple sizes and you really do give fabulous instructions for making your own patterns. :)
I think I have the opposite problem as you--I love to sew with knits but am just getting started with sewing kid clothing using quilting-weight cottons. The serger is my absolute best friend when sewing knits because the stitches are automatically stretchy enough for knits. 3 cheers for sergers! - May 26, 2011 at 9:16 PM

holy moly i wish u had two little boys! haha i found your blog thru pinterest and im IN LOVE! you are so talented!

- Megan @ SimplyThrifty said...
I LOVE IT! I actually saw a little girl at our storytime who was wearing a long shirt very similar to this. I sketched some pictures to try to attempt it later. It had two pockets on the front (same shape as yours) and I think it had some gathers or small pleats in the bodice. I'll have to look at my drawing. You did a great job and the dress is adorable!!
I recently started sewing and you have really inspired me to try new things and have taught me many things as well! Thanks! - May 26, 2011 at 10:07 PM

Beautiful as always =) Thank you.

hey Jess - I saw you were having a giveaway from Incomparable Buttons (from their ButtonMad blog). Sign me up!
So that's how I heard of your blog, but I was perusing your tutorials when I found this one. I had no idea that it was TODAYs post, but I love it! I've got a 2T little girl and I'm going to try it :)
(Oh, and I LOVE the little hedgehog button on your previous post - totally makes the outfit!) - May 27, 2011 at 4:47 AM
- Paula said...
I love this!! I think I'll make this very soon for my 15 month old. But one silly question about sewing with knits: What sewing stitch did you use for this dress? Zigzag, longer stitch or just regular? Thanks!!
- May 27, 2011 at 10:11 AM
- Katie said...
Super super cute Jess. I love the simple, comfy, girly style. I just might have to make one for Olivia. :)
P.S. Yours is way cuter than the store brand dress. Way. - May 27, 2011 at 1:51 PM
- Katie said...
First, love tea clothing.
Second, love that my daughter is almost a size 2. Makes things easier although I've dived into attempting to draft my own patterns. It's been fun. If you have time visit my blog: bekatelyn.com
Okay, now I really need to sew up some of the stuff you do. I've pinned it all on pinterest but now I need to sew. - May 27, 2011 at 2:48 PM
- Michelle, Dan, Emma and Elliott said...
Seriously inspiring! I have a beautiful yard of knit fabric and am anxious about sewing with knit... do you have any good resources for "how to?"
- May 27, 2011 at 8:53 PM
I think yours is far cuter than the inspiration dress. Thanks for the tute, I've been wanting to make up some quick summer dresses for a friend with 3 girls ages 3 and under (I know, right?) but am nervous about the sleeve thing (my friend prefers dresses with little sleeves rather than straps, all her girls are very fair and sunburn easily). This tute explains and shows the sleeve thing so simply I think I can do it. Thanks for the great blog.

I am SOOO going to have to make one of these for my daughter! I love the clothes from Tea Collection, but they're usually outside of my budget.
I linked to your tutorial on Craft Gossip Sewing:

Love this tutorial & pattern.
However I do have a question. Is there a way to get the pattern pdf without having to have a facebook account? it keeps asking me to sign into or sign up for facebook and I don't want to do either. - May 29, 2011 at 9:35 AM
Great as usual!!! You are amazing, I´m going to try it, but I´m just wondering, should I make any measurement of the girl´s head to draw the neckline? I am afraid of making it too small since it hasn´t any closure...
- May 29, 2011 at 12:22 PM
- Rachel said...
This is adorable! I love the striped knit.
- May 31, 2011 at 9:46 AM
wow amazing tutorial - as in I think I could do that in a larger size! thank you!

So cute! I love the trim you added to the pocket. It looks better that way. That fabric is messing with my eyes... it's like an optical illusion. Are you trying to hypnotize me?

this is AWESOME.

I have been looking for a dress tutorial for something JUST like this! I have several of that Tea dress for my daugther and always wanted to make some more. Thanks for this so much!!!
- July 5, 2011 at 4:45 AM
- Señorita Carolina said...
Do you think it would be possible for me to use this pattern with a cotton fabric? Obviously, I would have to do a button closure in the back, but otherwise, what do you think?
- July 12, 2011 at 7:55 PM
- Jess said...
I don't see why it wouldn't work with a cotton, as long as you did a closure in back! I'd love to see it if you try that!
- July 12, 2011 at 9:11 PM
- Jennifer said...
Would it be too much to ask to get the pattern emailed to me? I can't seem to download it. Thanks so much!! Your post today got me thinking I want to make one of this pronto!

It won't let me download the pattern from Scribd without paying a subscription fee. I'd make my own pattern... but I'm making this for next spring and don't have anything 2t. Do you have this pattern on Google Docs like the June Bug Dress? Thanks for sharing your gifts with us!

I *LOVE* this dress!!
Google Docs says the document has been remoed- or am I just being an idiot and can't find it? - August 5, 2011 at 10:53 AM

So excited to be making this for my daughter - just a few questions: it looks like you've left the sleeve raw - is that right, or did you just skip the step of hemming in the tutorial? I was thinking of making it sort of double-faced and top-stitching it, but don't know if that would work with a knit as it may get too bulky. Also, it looks like you're using a straight stitch everywhere as opposed to a zigzag. Please let me know! Thanks so much for the great tutorial and inspiration!!
- February 25, 2012 at 3:15 PM
- Jess@craftiness is not optional said...
Yes, the edge are raw, since it's knit I decided not to finish them. :)
- February 26, 2012 at 1:44 PM
- Michelle said...
I love this. I'm going to try one for my 8-year-old this weekend. I'm really into making knit dresses for her lately, and this one looks perfect. I honestly like yours more than I like the inspiration dress. Thank you!
- March 16, 2012 at 8:46 AM

Wow, great tutorial. I would like to think that I could try something similar but I don't know if I am confident enough. Beautiful dress.
Thank you for sharing

I just made this for my daughter using a shirt printed with our church logo. Now she will have festive church clothes that match the adults at the parish picnic. Too cute!
- May 13, 2012 at 2:14 PM
I found a dress at a national kids chain store (to go unnamed) that was adorable but crazy expensive for something my daughter will grow out of in a few months. I found your playdate dress that was very similar. I did a little adjusting to the pattern to deal with cotton instead of knit but it turned out very cute. Here is the link to the pic: http://dl.dropbox.com/u/4425583/Maggie%27s%20Playdate%20dress.jpg
Thanks again for a great site and wonderful tutorials! - May 20, 2012 at 4:49 PM

I had a go at using this tutorial to refashion a long sleeved jersey knit top that my mum donated to my refashioing pile. It had a lovely print pattern and some embellishment around the neckline that I managed to use with some clevel pattern placement. I had to rejig the pattern a bit to incorporate long sleeves since the weather here in the UK is pretty grim right now, but it worked out ok I think. I posted about it at http://ribbonsandbibbons.blogspot.co.uk/ and linked back to your tutorial. Thanks for sharing!
- June 10, 2012 at 5:33 AM
- Anna said...
Thanks for the spray starch tip!
- June 16, 2012 at 3:03 PM
Your's looks better than the inspiration. I like that your stripes are going vertical on the body of the dress and sleeves but horizontal on the bodice and pocket. It makes a big difference and is more pleasing to the eye. Also, the trim on the pocket makes the trim on the collar make sense.
- June 24, 2012 at 4:45 PM
Does your 2T printable pattern contain seam allowances? Thanks so much for the tutorial...love the dress!!

I really think your´s looking more beautiful than the inspirational dress. I like that your stripes are in different directions. I like your sleeves better as well. Good work.

I have been wanting to make a dress like this for ages, and I gave it a try as an upcyle. Came out looking nothing like yours, but I love it anyway! Gives me an excuse to do it again so that my girl actually has a dress that looks like this :)

On 15 August 2000, the Senate referred issues relating to the above matter to the Select Committee for an Inquiry into the Contract for a New Reactor at Lucas Heights.
The Select Committee will examine and report by 4 December 2000 on the following matters:
(1) That a select committee, to be known as the Select Committee for an Inquiry into the contract for a new reactor at Lucas Heights, be appointed to examine and report by 4 December 2000, on the following matters:
(a) the need for a new research reactor, including:
(i) the validity of science and industry enhancement claims of the Australian Nuclear Science and Technology Organisation (ANSTO) and the Commonwealth Government,
(ii) the adequacy of supply, and the cost, of radioactive sources and nuclear medicines used in diagnosis and treatment,
(iii) the opportunities for alternative sources of nuclear materials for medical applications, such as additional cyclotrons at appropriate locations,
(iv) the validity of nuclear expertise and national interest claims of the Department of Foreign Affairs and Trade, the Australian Safeguards and Non-Proliferation Office, ANSTO and the Commonwealth Government for the replacement reactor, and
(v) consideration of alternative approaches and means through which Australias national interests in nuclear disarmament and non-proliferation and nuclear safety can be supported and advanced;
(b) the process leading up to the signing of a contract in June 2000 with INVAP of Argentina for the construction of a new nuclear reactor at Lucas Heights, with particular reference to:
(i) the quality and accuracy of information relied on in assessing the tenders, including a review of how the economic, environmental and public health impacts were considered,
(ii) the probity of the tender arrangements and the accuracy of the cost assessments,
(iii) the checks made of the record of the preferred tenderer, INVAP, and its capability to undertake the project safely and economically and its record in matching international best practice in other projects, and
(iv) public access to information about the proposal and the consideration of issues raised through the public consultation process;
(c) the nature of the contractual commitments entered into and the degree to which they are binding on the Commonwealth, including in the event that not all approvals are obtained and all other preconditions met, or that a future Government decides not to proceed with the reactor, with particular reference to:
(i) the timeframe and process to be followed by the Australian Radiation Protection and Nuclear Safety Agency in considering the issue of a construction licence and an operating licence, and the consequences under the contract if such licences are not issued,
(ii) any other requirements for approvals from the Commonwealth, state or local governments and the consequences if such approvals are not obtained,
(iii) the consequences if preconditions set in the Environmental Impact Statement and other previous inquiries are not met at the time of granting of a construction licence,
(iv) the nature of any provisions in the contract related to the ability of either party to terminate the contract prior to completion and the provisions in relation to compensation for termination, and
(v) whether all or part of the contract and other documents created during its consideration and approval should now be made public;
(d) whether the preconditions set by previous inquiries and assessments into this proposal have been adequately met prior to the contract being entered into, with particular reference to:
(i) fulfilment of each of the conditions for approval set out in the draft Environmental Impact Statement and its supplement report, including requirements for waste management,
(ii) whether the recommendations of the Economics References Committee inquiry into the Lucas Heights proposal which reported in September 1999 have been adequately responded to,
(iii) the adequacy of occupational and public safety protection procedures, and
(iv) the adequacy of nuclear incident plans and emergency procedures; and
(e) the adequacy of proposed fuel and waste management provisions in the contract (or yet to be finalised), with particular reference to:
(i) the specific fuel proposed to be used and its source, the type of fuel rods and where they will be manufactured,
(ii) the proposed spent fuel management arrangements during operation,
(iii) the arrangements made to ensure that spent fuel rods can be reprocessed, stored and ultimately disposed of safely,
(iv) whether the new reactor is subject to negotiation of satisfactory contracts for international reprocessing of spent fuel rods; and, if so, which countries will be involved and will these contracts be subject to a provision which requires the return of Australian waste as is the case with some of the existing Lucas Heights fuel rods, and

Christ Lutheran in Avon Lake. The children learn their ABC's, colors, etc., Bible stories, and are told daily that Jesus loves them. I especially love the "gross motor time" when they get to just run around and get the wiggles out, which is essential for 3 year olds with limited attention spans. I was drawn to the outdoor playground and that they get to play outdoors if the weather is nice. Not many preschools take their children outdoors, or even out of the classroom for this active playtime.

Interview Details – Long interview. Overall good experience. It took a half a day, met with six different people for a half hour each. Each person had different backgrounds and different personalities. Asked questions that were more behavior based rather then technical questions. Not a difficult interview but can be tiring talking with all of the different interviewers.

Interview Details – They emailed me first. Phone interview for screeing was very easy and straightforward. Took about 30 minutes. Brought me up to Chicago for an onsite.

No Offer – Interviewed in Bedford Park, IL – Reviewed Oct 23, 2012
Interview Details – Had phone interview with HR recruiter and it went well. They scheduled me for a face to face with the hiring manager and supervisor. Supervisor seemed to really like me, manager seemed pre-occupied. Was asked to come back for a 2nd interview a month later. The morning of I got a call to cancel as the hiring manager and others had called in sick. Rescheduled the 2nd interview for two weeks later. Was scheduled to meet with someone in the department as well as some other employees. Arrived and found that more than half of the people hadn't shown up to work that day including the person I was told to ask for when I arrived. Basically turned away. I was going to tell them, I no longer wished to pursure this any further but was asked to just come in one more time , this time to meet with the hiring manager again and the planner I was to meet the last time. Hiring manager seemed very apologetic for the misunderstanding and appeared to be interested. Two days later I was told they were not going to extend me an offer. I found the entire process very unprofessional and disappointing.
No Offer – Interviewed in Norman, OK Aug 2012 – Reviewed Oct 18, 2012
Interview Details – I had two interviews the first interview was over the phone that lasted aprox. 45 min. The recuriter just asked me about myself we went over some classes I had taken and then we went over my resume. This part of the interview had no tough questions it was very laid back and he was really nice. the second interview I met with 4 employees that I maybe working with in the future. It lasted around 4 hours between the meeting and going to the job site the first part of the face to face interview we went over the same things we discussed in over the phone then they asked me some technical questions that were not hard at all. After that part we went to the paper plant and they showed me something of things I might be doing.
Interview Question – What is your view of what sales is like at Nalco View Answer
No Offer – Interviewed in Naperville, IL Jul 2010 – Reviewed Jun 20, 2012
Interview Details –
1. Two phone interviews with HR and then with a R&D Manager, both were very short,
consisted from a few formal questions to check out my resume.
2. 1:1 restaurant interview with R&D Manager during weekend:
bizarre conversation with sharing private feelings from him followed by a few questions. One critical question
about my experience in making new products ended up the interview almost abruptly.
3. On-site interview included a presentation, a phone interview with Global Technology Leader, 1:1 interview with 10 people. I liked most of the people I interviewed with, however some conversations were either low professional, sharing personal feelings about the company or trying to project my outcome with the interview process based on my time of the restaurant interview. The most critical question was again about making new products in the past. R&D Manager gave me finally a very simple example of "innovative product". I explained it why it worked out during interview. In overall, I realized that the result of Nalco interview depended mostly from the restaurant conversation with R&D Manager and the rest was just for entertainment.

Beale, local agencies bracing for federal cuts
In just over a week, Beale Air Force Base, and other local agencies that rely on federal funding, are bracing for impact.
As of March 1, the stipulated federal budget cuts for both defense and nondefense spending would affect a broad number of areas. But Beale, the most visible federal presence in the Yuba-Sutter area, would likely also have the most visible reverberations.
On Wednesday, outgoing Defense Secretary Leon Panetta sent a letter to military employees stating if the cuts come as expected, the majority of civilian military employees would be subject to an administrative furlough.
"I can assure you that, if we have to implement furloughs, all affected employees will be provided at least 30 days' notice prior to executing a furlough and your benefits will be protected to the maximum extent possible," Panetta said in the letter.
While a Beale spokesman said direct effects on the base from the budget cuts probably won't be known until the deadline grows closer, an analysis released last week by US Rep. John Garamendi said 1,400 Beale employees could be subject to such furloughs.
Those furloughs would translate to $13 million in lost pay and more than 260,000 lost productivity hours, according to Garamendi's office. As well, $1.3 million in construction projects at the base could be deferred or canceled, according to the analysis.
Cuts in civilian pay and other base spending would translate into an effect on the local economy, though how much is still to be determined.
"It makes no sense," Garamendi, D-Walnut Grove, said Wednesday. "It's a foolish way to deal with spending."
Already, Beale officials have been tightening belts in anticipation of the cuts, which are also known as sequestration.
Base spokesman Tech Sgt. Eric Petosky said in an email that non-mission-essential spending, such as training and airshow participation, have already been and would likely continue to face larger cuts under sequestration.
What is sequestration?
Sequestration refers to the planned automatic federal budget cuts set to go into effect March 1.
The cuts were stipulated in summer 2011 as an alternative to a federal commission spending plan to cut federal debt, and were originally supposed to go into effect Jan. 1.
An end-of-the-year budget deal in December to keep the country from going over what was called "the fiscal cliff" pushed back the sequestration effect date to next Friday.
Not affected by sequestration
These federal budget categories are not affected by sequestration budget cuts, which are set to go into effect March 1:
- Social Security benefits
- All programs administered by the Veterans Administration
- Payments to individuals in the form of refundable tax credits
- Most programs aimed at low-income residents, such as Medicare, Temporary Assistance to Needy Families and federal Pell Grants
- Medicare Part D low-income premium and cost-sharing subsidies
- Student loans
- Federal pay and administrative expenses
Agreement still possible
It's not certain the $85 billion in cuts set to go into effect on March 1 will come to pass.
Representatives on both sides of the political aisle, including in Yuba-Sutter, said it's still possible Congress will come to an agreement to forestall the most devastating cuts before then. But with Congress out this week, it's easy to see why there's skepticism.
Newly elected US Rep. Doug LaMalfa, R-Richvale, said he sees the cuts as the start of a discussion about federal spending and what the country can afford.
"This is a pretty small fraction of the overall budget," said LaMalfa, adding he thinks it's good for directors at federal agencies to be more thoughtful about what they spend and where they spend it.
"If we can't make these small corrections, how will we ever get serious in the future?" he said, referring to projections of growing federal deficits for decades to come.
But US Rep. John Garamendi said the cuts as outlined are a poor approach to getting the nation's fiscal house in order.
House minority Democrats, he said, have introduced an alternative plan to avoid the March 1 plan, partially through budget cuts and partially through ending tax breaks for oil companies, among others.
So far, said Garamendi, D-Walnut Grove, the Republican leadership in the House hasn't let the proposal come up for a vote.
LaMalfa said his party has approved its own alternative plan to the budget cuts, but the US Senate, where Democrats are a majority, hasn't voted on it. Nor has President Obama taken a leadership role, he said.
As a former state legislator, LaMalfa said, he learned a looming deadline was a good motivator, and the March 1 deadline may work the same way.
Cuts extend further
Not all March 1 federal budget cuts will be confined to Beale Air Force Base.
Though many agencies are still figuring out exactly how, those in the US Army Corps of Engineers and the North Central Counties Consortium know they're going to feel it.
Mike Inamine, executive director of the Sutter Butte Flood Control Agency, said the biggest impact to the agency would be in the form of $255 million in staff cuts nationwide to the Corps, where personnel have to sign off on a permit to allow the Sutter Butte agency to do work on a major Feather River levee project.
It's unclear whether the cuts would affect the levee project, but Inamine said they are the agency's number one concern.
"We don't know what the outcome will be until the 11th hours," Inamine said.
At the Consortium, which provides workforce training and other services for the unemployed in four counties, the cut would be between 8 percent and 10 percent, said executive director Nancy Crooks, or about $300,000 to $350,000 from the annual budget.
Crooks said initially her office would reduce staff at One Stop offices, including those in Sutter and Yuba counties, and then cut back on training. No cuts would go into effect until July 1, the beginning of the agency's fiscal year, she said.
"I think they really need to examine our economy and see where our needs are," she said, pointing out federal officials often speak about job training as the way to improve the nation's economy. "How do we do that if we're cutting training?"
Some effects won't be direct.
Because of Medicare cuts, officials at Rideout Health would expect to see a $2.1 million budget reduction over the next year.
And not all government agencies are directly concerned.
Spokesmen for both Yuba and Sutter counties said so far, they haven't identified any major cuts to the counties' budgets as a result of the federal cuts.
Still, as Sutter County spokesman Chuck Smith said, "If sequestration has a negative impact on the economy in general, all local governments will feel it."

Found on my morning walk. A lost bunny.
Here in a landscape where the coyotes howl beneath your windows at night, it's not unusual to find gruesome evidence of their nocturnal feasting.
But this is the first time I've found a toy bunny.
a blog that explores fun, food, life and Los Angeles, praised by Pulitzer Prize winner Jonathan Gold as "formidable."

text: Sounds like a bit of info is missing Normally you would find your files in /usr/src/linux. However that is often just a link to the real directory which which on my machine here is /usr/src/linux-2.4.21-0.13mdk/ So cd /usr/src ls and see what you have. Then link it to /usr/src/linux, change into that directory and carry on with your config. Make sure you have the right instructions. Its different for 2.4 and 2.6. There are lots of good kernel compilation guides. I followed the one in the Gentoo handbook....mainly because it was already printed out. Kevin.

Posted in Warhammer- Online with tags New Years on December 30, 2009 by theerivs2009 had a lot of downs and ups for WAR. but with improved performance, and some city siege changes I think 2010 is going to be OK.
May the Raven God Bless you in 2010.
Out with the Old, in with the New
Posted in Warhammer- Online with tags New, Old, PvP ideas on December 29, 2009 by theerivsIt was a year of ups and downs for WAR. They dealt with alot of issues, and I got to hand it to them they are trying their best. improving performance, making some changes in RvR, etc….
What am I looking forward to in WAR.
1. More Revamping of City Sieges – I don't like sitting there for a long time doing nothing, or getting bombed by Order.
2. Better Itemization - Some cool new gear, and better ways to get it.
3.Better PVE- Even though this is a PvP game, I woule like some better options/choices in PvE
4. Bring Back LotD – Something to revitalize Land of the Dead.
5. I want a 3rd faction damn it.!
The Future of WAR!
Posted in Warhammer- Online with tags Future, WAR on December 28, 2009 by theerivsWith Star Trek Online coming soon, and Star Wars on the Horizon. I wonder about the Future of WAR. I worry about. The populations will decrease further, and further. Mythic has to do something huge to compete with these huge IP's. I pray they are working on something big, and that is the reason they have been for the most part silent. I hope they are working on an awesome 3rd faction, or something equally as huge.
If not but I hate to say it, or WAR won't last to the end of 2010.
Twas the Night before Ravenmas
Posted in Warhammer- Online with tags Ravnemas on December 22, 2009 by theerivsTwas the night before Ravenmas, when all through the fortress
Not a creature was stirring, not even a Skaven.
The skulls were hung by the chimney with care,
In hopes that Tzeentch soon would be there.
The Marauders were nestled all snug in their beds,
While visions of flaying skin of Witch Hunters danced in their heads.
And my concubine in her 'kerchief, and I in my cap,
Had just settled our weapons for a long winter's nap.
When out on the lawn there arose such a clatter,
I sprang from the bed to see what was the matter.
Away to the window I flew like a flash,
Tore open the shutters and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow
Gave the lustre of mid-day to objects below.
When, what to my wondering eyes should appear,
But a miniature sleigh, and eight tiny vulture demons.
With a little old demon, so lively and quick,
I knew in a moment it must be Tzeentch.
More rapid than ravens his coursers they came,
And he whistled, and shouted, and called them by name!
"Now Kresuc! now, Korak'in! now, Bloodspatter and Vilegore!
On, Crusher! On, Callous! on, on Deathmonger and Bonesmahser!
To the top of the keep! to the top of the wall!
Now slay away! slay away! slay away all!"
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
When they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky.
So up to the keep-top the coursers they flew,
With the sleigh full of heads, and Tzeentch too.
And then, in a twinkling, I heard on the roof
The prancing and pawing of each little talon.
As I drew in my head, and was turning around,
Down the chimney Tzeentch came with a bound.
He was dressed all in feathers, from his head to his foot,
And his clothes were all tarnished with blood and soot.
A bundle of severed heads he had flung on his back,
And he looked like a peddler, just opening his pack.
His eyes-how they shined with evil! his dimples how scary!
His cheeks were pale like the moon, his nose like a beak!
His droll little mouth formed an evil grin.
And the beard of his chin was as black as midnight.
The stump of a pipe he held tight in his blackened teeth,
And the smoke it encircled his head like a Orc Fire.
He had a broad face and a little round belly,
That shook when he laughed, like a bowlful of dead carcass!
He was mean, and foul, a right evil old elf,
And I cackled when I saw him, in spite of myself!
A glare of his eye and a twist of his head,
Soon gave me to know I had everything to dread.
He spoke not a word, but went straight to his work,
And filled all the stockings with skulls, then turned with a jerk.
And laying his finger aside of his nose,
And giving a nod, up the chimney he rose!
He sprang to his sleigh, to his team gave a whistle,
And away they all flew like the down of a thistle.
But I heard him exclaim, 'ere he drove out of sight,
"Happy Ravenmas to all, and Order you must kill them all!"
Being the Tank in PvP
Posted in Warhammer- Online with tags PvP, Tank on December 21, 2009 by theerivsI really like the role of Tank in PvE, and PvP, you might be saying, "Rivs, Tanks don't have a place in PvP" We are not killers. In fact most of us hit like a feather pillow. What we do excel at is either harass, or be a target. Let me give you some scenarios.
Harrassing -
I was in a scenario, and a Runepriest was healing away. I came up, and gave him a knockdown. This might have interrupted his healing, which may led to one of his friend's death. I progressed to beat on him, he started to run. Running healers don't usually make good healers. This may have caused more death's of his order buddies.
Being a Target -
If Order is busy trying to take me down, that keeps them busy with me and not taking objectives, or trying to kill my teammates. Say your on a 20 versus 20. You and a healer are keeping 4 or 5 order busy. You just made it 18-16/15, that means the numerical advantage has swayed to your side. Very oversimplified example, but i think you get my point.
Being a Survivor. -
You make a better guard, if there is an objective that needs to be guarded, you can hold out longer, keep the objective until reinforcements come. Thus making it harder to take, thus making it maybe a little easier to win.
I love operating rams, and smashing doors. 'Nuff said.
The bottomline, Yes being a good killer is a good thing, but it's not the only thing. Being a teammate, and helping the team is very rewarding as well. I enjoy that.
Order seems to upped their game
Posted in Warhammer- Online on December 18, 2009 by theerivsI was impressed last night, On Iron Rock I was attempting to take a fortress. I was banging on the the front door. Then all of a sudden we were out flanked by order, they were bull rushing us from the side door. To me that was something new, and then when a horde of them came out the side door, some more came out the front in a classic pincher action.
I was stunned, tactics? Order upped their game, and when they took our fortress, they had patrols killing incoming troops.
I got to hand it to them, it's not the Order I was use to seeing. So after they handed me my arse. I thought I would do some scenarios. The show was on the other foot there. Mopped them up, and it felt good to trade steel with some Knights.
Looking forward to some 20% extra renown this weekend, hopefully I can get some playing in.
Rivs the Drunkard
Posted in Warhammer- Online with tags Keg's End, Patch 3.3, Underdog on December 17, 2009 by theerivsLast year Keg's End I got that title, this year you can get the title Brew Dawg if your Destro, Brew Pansy or something of the ilk if your Order.
Tell you the truth, I like being the Drunkard…it's pretty damn cool to me. A person who occasional imbibes an adult beverage.
I'm a little upset I reupped, and then a few days later their offering some goodies. Werit explains the freebies more indepth…I'm too disgusted in myself to list what you get, maybe I'll tweet Josh and complain, or at least toss an email to Customer Service.
The great thing is EVERYONE get 20% bonus to renown, experience, and influence.
This morning I was reading good old Warhammer Alliance forums, and noticed Order was bragging about kill Tchar again. Thanks to Lokax. he explains how their doing it. Damn Cheatin Order.
I think I need a drink!
Hey Tough Guy
Posted in Warhammer- Online with tags renown, Sceanrios on December 16, 2009 by theerivsSo it was awesome with some different gear choices, and back to be Sword and Board I felt like a Monster yesterday in scenarios. Sure I am no killer, but with a little help from my friends. I am a huge pain in the ass.
I key in on healers, I am in the back trying to disrupt them. It's great when Order trys to kill me, usually it takes 4 or 5 of them to do it. or one Bright Wizard. I hate these guys. I hate the so much it's so hard to pull off the healer, and go for them. I have even done it out of anger. These guys are the bane of my exsistance, and once I find out the bane of their's I will give praise to the Raven God.
Really what I'm trying to do is work on my Renown. I am level 42 now, I have been left in the lurch so to speak, alot of the players I played with are all 70/80 Renown Ranks. If anyone knows a faster way, please let me know. Though City PQ's are quite nice.
Well tonight it will be back into the breach once more.
Ward, Where's the Beaver?
Posted in Warhammer- Online with tags Armor, Wards on December 15, 2009 by theerivsWell I'm old school, I knew the Wards System had changed but still I like my Sentinel, my Darkpromise, and my bloodlord shoulders which I'm cursed to wear forever…and ever. Thanks Bilerot, and my crappy luck. They were like my security blankets though.
This morning I broke out of that, and reviewed my armor. Since I don't need ward armor anymore, I picked out some better pieces like my Giant Slayer Gauntlets, and Girdle of the Despoiler which has spots for 3 talismans, albiet you have to put crappy talismans in it.
Right now I'm sitting at around little less then 800 toughness, and 950 Wounds. I gotta get my toughness up more, without affecting my wounds then work on my Strength as well.
Any good armor or item choices you know of, feel free to toss them out there.

Neat-Oh! creates toy storage bins for kids and has several licenses including Hot Wheels, Barbie and our favorite, Lego Star Wars. You may have already seen their Battle Bridge Carry Case & Playmat, the Millennium Falcon Minifigure Case or TIE Fighter Carry Case & Playmat at stores such as Toys-R-Us and Target, but in 2013 we're in for several new products that include some excellent art you may recognize.
Messenger Bags
Two new Messenger Bags will be in stores shortly. One features the image of Darth Vader on the outside but opens to reveal a piece of Ralph McQuarrie artwork depicting Vader's Duel with Luke Skywalker on Bespin.
Their Stormtrooper Bag features the classic white Trooper on the outside while the inside is decorated with Tsuneo Sanda's Stormtrooper artwork.
A third bag, Yoda, was shown in prototype form, note the cardboard ears in the photo, and hasn't had the interior artwork picked out yet. Joe showed them some photos of Jerry Vanderstelt's Yoda artwork so maybe we'll see another well-known Star Wars artist featured in the future.
Neat-Oh! has an X-Wing Backpack coming in the near future and it also includes artwork on this inside, this time by Dave Dorman. The art is taken from the cover of Dark Horse Comics' "X-Wing Rogue Squadron: The Rebel Opposition" #3.
Also on display at their booth, Neat-Oh! had collapsible storage bins and some of the cases we mentioned above. The bins feature more generic Star Wars graphics while the playmats feature graphics that can be used as a playset for the Lego sets.
Fans of other Lego themes will be happy to know that Neat-Oh! also is producing storage bins for Ninjago, Friends and the new Chima lines.

GOODY, Ky. – Belfry clinched the regular season district title with a 5-3 win over visiting Pike County Central on a chilly, windy Monday night at Massey Energy Field at Goody, Ky.
After giving up three runs in the top of the first inning and falling behind 3-0, the Pirates clawed their way back. Tyler Williams got a 2-out single in the bottom of the 3rd inning to tie the game at 3-3.
Relief pitcher Zac Fields, who came in for starter Jared Masters, worked his way out of a jam thanks to the Pirate's first double play of the season in the top of the 4th inning. Fields picked up the win for BHS.
Belfry took a 4-3 lead in the 5th inning after Jared Masters tripled down the right field line and scored on an error.
The Pirates got an insurance run in the top of the 6th inning after Tyler Williams singled home Howie Dotson who had walked earlier in the frame.
Fields held the Hawks scoreless in the top of the 7th and Belfry went home with the big district win.
Williams continued his hot hitting with two doubles and a single in the contest, Masters had a triple, Duty, Dotson and Keegan Fields each had singles.
Blake Clark was the losing pitcher for the Hawks. Clark tripled and singled for PCCHS, while Mac Justice doubled and singled. Zac Scroggins and Rob Hopkins both had base hits for the Hawks, who saw their record fall to 7-9.
Belfry coach Michael Hagy saw his Pirates improve to 15-6 on the season. For the most part, Hagy was pleased with the victory. "It's always good to beat a district rival. Our first goal is to clinch the regular season title and get the home field advantage in the tournament. This automatically puts us in the championship game in the district tourney," Hagy said. (Pike Central and Phelps are the other two schools in the 60th District of the 15 Region.) As of Monday night's game, Belfry had the best record in the region.
"Pike Central is a scrappy team and always plays us good," he added. "Jared didn't have his best stuff tonight and that happens. But, we had a sophomore in Zac Fields who stepped up tonight. We did just enough to win. Tyler Williams has just been unconscious lately the way he has been hitting the ball. We need our seniors to do that."
Belfry is off tonight for the schools' sports banquet. They travel to Sheldon Clark on Wednesday and host Van, W.Va. on Thursday.
Score by innings:
BHS …0 0 2 111 x - 5

Posts Tagged 'Attempts'
SAN BERNARDINO – On January 25, 2010, I arrived at home at 10:45 PM, and noticed a cluster of orange lights at 10:45 PM. The lights were stationary for at least five minutes and then two of the lights that were side by side started moving towards each other as if they were going to collide. As they got to the point of touching they just crossed and dropped down about a half inch in the sky and stayed in place for awhile. I ran inside and told my wife and got my camera and we came out and began to take pictures.
As took the pictures the lights were stationary and slowly faded away. I noticed in the background the white lights and the red flashing tail light lights of an airplane coming south bound towards LA (Los Angeles). It flew underneath the top orange light in the northwest where two lights faded and were east of the airplane. As the plane passed the lights illuminated again; and I took three other pictures and only one object stayed orange as shown. There was one object northwest also the same as the other two.
Note: The photo was taken with a FUJIFILM A850 Digital Camera with a maximum resolution of 8.1 mega-pixels. I am only able to see one orange light in the single photo sent by the witness. Attempts were made to enhance the photo through changing the brightness and contrast to better reveal detail, but only the one orange light shows up. The light has been magnified in the above photo and appears to be the original photo as output from the camera.
RIPON – On January 29, 2010, I was driving north from Modesto through Ripon heading towards Manteca where my Fiancé and I noticed a very bright set of lights hovering over Highway 99, 1/4 of a mile from Ripon High School. We noticed the object spinning slowly as the outside lights glowed off and on. I said "I think it's a UFO" and as we drove by the object, it was clear that there was nothing holding the lights in the air as it was hovering on its own.
The center light glowed different colors as the outside lights changed from white to orange to red. I then turned around so I could get a photo but by the time we got back, the object was gone. The duration of time of the sighting was around three minutes. I felt very uneasy as I am currently an Air Intelligence Analyst in the United States Air Force. The object was about 600 feet AGL and the size was roughly around 30 yards from point to point. I swear on everything that I have seen the same object in videos as well with the same exact characteristics. I'm baffled! Thanks to Fernando A. Maestas
SAN CARLOS– Saw the weird shape hover overhead on January 13, 2010, that quickly moved over Redwood City and kept the same altitude than quickly disappeared.
HIGHLAND — I did not personally see the UFO, but pictures and reports were on our local news station KTVI Channel 2 in St. Louis, MO. on Sunday night May 11, 2009. Blogs were also on the net concerning this sighting. I wish you would investigate as this area frequently has UFO sightings.
KTVI Report: Some residents in Illinois may have spotted a strange sight in the sky above Highland late Sunday night. Fox 2 received a few emails about some odd-looking lights. Some are going so far as to call the lights a UFO. FOX 2 made several attempts to confirm with the state and city police, but officials say they have not heard anything about the lights. (About 20 MI East of Downtown St. Louis
GRANITE CITY — KTVI Blog (Witness Report): Saturday night my 12 year old son was asleep in his room making noises like he had a bad dream. His dad went in there and asked: "what's wrong?" His answer was "there is a blue hovering light above me." He is in his room not outside, but woke up to a blue light and was freaking out. His father assumed that he had played his Xbox 360 so much that the blue hovering disc above him was a dream. I assumed it was a police car that drove by with lights on, but I woke up this morning and see the story on the news. When I called my husband at work this morning and told him what I saw on the news his words were: "You gotta be kidding me!"
Note: The above photo sent to KTVI TV is interesting, but it is unknown what the witness saw. Apparently several reports of the lights were received by KTVI TV. The blog mentioned on the news report could not be found. The witness report apparently occurred late Saturday night (May 9) and not Sunday when the other reports were received. Granite City is about 10 miles northeast of downtown St. Louis. Thanks to William Puckett UFOS Northwest http://ufosnw.com
CHICAGO — The witness reports "It lit up right before my eyes, to the south of me on July 9, 2008, like a fluorescent light and then shut off." It was closer than anything I have seen so far. It was only for one second at the most and I did get a picture." Note similarity of both photos. Thanks to MUFON CMS and Ken Pfeifer MUFON N.J., http://www.heavensrangers.com

Whitney Merrill interviewed David Crane for CoastViews Magazine's Health and Wellness issue that is now available online and in print. We think it's such an interesting concept we wanted to push it out on our blog site as well.
Whitney writes, "So, given his software engineering background, he [Crane] decided to develop an iPhone application — 'as simple an application as possible' — to encourage people to participate in activities that they enjoyed: 'hiking, biking, skiing, wine tastings, planting roses, etc.' He also wanted to encourage people to 'log the positive stuff.'"

The Rouleur Annual Photographers
The 2009 Rouleur Photo Annual is now out. A few short weeks ago they gathered and payed homage to the photographers that contributed to making the publication wonderful. Dan Sharp was one of these photographers and his photos from the 100th Anniversary of the Giro d'Italia are featured within. He made the trip from Portland, Oregon a town that he has called home for over ten years now, to the UK to help the other photographers celebrate.
Dan turned the cameras on the photographers represented at the show. Something that we do not get to see often. The one that I personally am the most excited about is his capture of the elusive beauty Taz Darling. Having spent weeks with her swatting the camera from my hands last year I almost gave up hope. But this image proves it — the snow leopard does exist.

Dan has been keeping himself quite busy since returning from the U.K. He promptly got off the plane and printed up a selection of his Giro photos and hung them in the Vanilla Workshop to display. Check out the coverage of that over on Embrocation.
Then, (and it doesn't end there) with the help of local Creative Wizards and friends of the Rapha family Joe Staples and Max Erdenberger we put his photos into a little story dubbed "Il Centenario — Una Storia.

JERSEY CITY -- Thursday will be the first day of school for Jersey City students.
It will also be the day when concerned parents and community leaders will implore Gov. Christopher Christie to restore state school funding cut from New Jersey schools in the state's fiscal year 2011 budget passed earlier this year.
A press conference will take place in front of Public School 15 (also known as Whitney M. Young Elementary School) on Stegman Street in Jersey City at 2:30 p.m.
The press conference is sponsored by Parents and Communities United for Education, a chapter of the Statewide Education Organizing Committee and member of the Better Choices for New Jersey Campaign.
A press release issued before the press conference said the speakers will express "disappointment" with area legislators state Sen. Sandra Cunningham and Assembly members Ruben Ramos and Caridad Rodriguez who supported the FY 2011 budget cuts.
Jersey City lost around $30 million in school state aid due to cuts in the state budget. - RK
