Car Booty!
I love car boot sales - if they are good ones that is. Today we went to a huge one, two hours to look around everything, and I came home a bit laden. Obviously within the first ten minutes I had bought a big old copy of Gone With the Wind and sixteen magazines about famous painters - which meant I then had to cart around ten pounds of dead weight for the remaining hour and fifty minutes!
I'm really pleased with this little haul - no, I don't plan on wearing the nasty earrings and necklace, but look at all those little silver discs, just waiting to be sewn on mini-dog and cat collars! I rely on finds like these for the sets I make - adds authenticity! The long strand of turquoise beads was a steal at £2.
Knowing what a sucker I am for a good yarn store, I try and stay away for the sake of my bank balance. However, this weekend I had a good excuse as I had to source some yarn for knitting little cats - I think this should keep me going for a while! If anyone out there has any Stylecraft Gypsy yarn (the soft fluffy eyelash one in the centre) I'd be willing to buy it - it is now discontinued but is the perfect yarn for lifelike mini-pets.
This weekend I also appear to have broken my dog! Since his 'rehabilitation' (once again, thank you Cesar Millan, Dog Whisperer, for all the useful and above all effective strategies for changing a dog's behaviour) we have been able to take our dog further afield for more interesting walks. He can now jump in the car by himself - yes, I have been lifting a 50 lb saluki into the back of the car for the past 7 years - which makes such a difference. He's seen his first ever cows, seen lots of new dogs without starting any punch-ups, and explored some new fields and woods. Now he's flopped on the floor in happy exhaustion.....
So with the sun shining.........
....the garden looking pretty.........
....with dragonflies basking on the pear tree.......
.....courgettes aplenty growing.......
....and more grapes than I could imagine on our vine....
......it's been a pretty good couple of days. Shame it's back to work tomorrow!

Looks like you had a great weekend. Lots of good loot. I showed your books to my daughter, the art teacher, and she was very envious.

The Key to Lasting Change? Get Creative
Not the markers and paper kind of creativity—but that doesn't hurt either. When we visualize how one shift, like a new job or promotion, actually reverberates through all areas of our lives, it sparks the real change agents: passion and intention.

This fragrance isn't really meant to shout. It exudes assurance and sophistication. Could quickly be considered a signature scent for a person that is a Slash over the rest.
It is not that It really is a great Oud or that It really is groundbreaking in almost any way. Somewhat, it is the execution of this fragrance and the quality that makes this such a delight.
I am unable to declare being an authority or everything but you can't go far Incorrect with Creed I'm so impressed with their range on The entire.
I did not like it in the least when I very first smelt it a yr in the past. I'd the notion it smelled too uncomplicated, and that there's a great deal of "more than buzz" with regards to the Creed fragrances. It took only handful of more visits to your Creed supplier And that i fell in really like.
I personal A good number of creed fragrances but I've received to mention, this is among my favorites. It can be an exceedingly warm fragrance that evokes a wonderful feel for me. I surely get the oud while in the fragrance. You guys really have to recognize that the oud utilised In this particular fragrance isn't like the typical oud you'd scent in any other fragrance. It isn't really severe or as well smoky, likewise, It is really delicate and supple.
Incredibly highly-priced and made of 'low cost supplies'. The longevity on my pores and skin---> lower than four several hours + very low projection. Conserve your cash and Choose superior/much cheaper
The oud below isn't very sturdy and medicinal like M7, epic male our montale black aoud. it's very sleek.
Hi there Uriya, many thanks for that update. However, lemme chip in couple of issues. I'm somebody that blind buys the majority of my colognes. This calendar year by yourself, about ninety% of your colognes in my closet have been blind bought on line (depending on the reviews and previews on websites such as this). I have found most packets of Creed colognes, you can get to see/browse stuff like: "DE PERE EN FILS DEPUIS 1760 MAISON ESTABLE A PARIS EN 1854", then there is certainly volume (75ml) and fl.
If I were to secure a Wooden fragrance, This may be the just one. Its the very best and many wearable Wooden I have smelled. I am Individually just not a wood human being. But I like it. It commences out slightly eco-friendly. Then it settles all the way down to The within of a picket drawer.
This is not India Oud! or Cambodia Oud!, I can't identified any Oud, But an incredibly heat and creamy / Quite attractive scent, I find it irresistible and remarkably propose this perfume to Other people, This is simply not scent that is very quickly as compared to Other folks,
It can be adaptable and performs marvelously perfectly through cooler times of spring and tumble. I will never get much too technological with respect into the notes as you can find other reviewers a lot more certified for that but suffice it to state this is on my prime frag list and will simply become a signature scent.
Ironic because men and women are pondering they buy the last word panty dropper with Aventus although this will Web you a lot more compliments, even within the youthful group. Lady swoon on this 1.
$325/bottle at Nordstrom. Ouch. I'm not likely to take care of that it's value that - nevertheless it undoubtedly smells prosperous and lavish.
I would say kudos to Creed for nevertheless generating an honest fragrance, however it feels too very similar to a income grab. Taking advantage of the 'oud trend' and all. So alternatively I will say kudos to those who can more info pull this off and happily do this.
I believe Royal Oud is a sublime scent. I am seeking ahead to donning this to a marriage, formal birthday party, or something of that ilk.
It assignments brilliantly for the initial thirty minutes or so after which you can cuts down to some assured arm's size sillage which garners compliments from almost Every person I stroll past. It has a tendency to depart an incredible hint of by itself as part of your backdraft as you progress all over.
I Certainly adore how woody this smells appropriate out on the bottle, but sadly less than five minutes in and It truly is fully disappeared on me. Despite an extra 3 sprays, very little. I will must get my partner to test it on, or use The remainder as a beautiful place spray.
It has plenty of of a fresh opening and floral undertones, as well as a small little bit of a sweetness to it, being more wearable for those who don't like dry or filthy fragrances. It's got solid projection, average longevity. Incredibly costly (overpriced for most of us) but surely excellent.
im not gonna defeat a dead horse on this "oud" issue as it's been the new development as of late, but i will look at the fragrance itself. smells terrific basic as that.
I just obtained a sample of the within the mail and It is Certainly incredible! I express that as anyone who's extremely picky about fragrances, too. I dislike Green Irish Tweed and Aventus is "meh", but Royal Oud is truly outstanding!
It is just a mature fragrance absolutely, so There may be that, in terms of constraints go. The value is rather out there. Check out it though a sample or whatever: this sits in a really compact classification reserved For less than by far the most refined masculine scents.
I choose to wear this a person in warmer temperature mainly because it receives softer and creamier. In cold weather, the citrus and pepper stands out far more.
The something that strike me ideal off the bat using this fragrance is that it is extremely weighty. Staying summer season in south Florida this fragrance did not workout way too effectively on me.
Smooth and Wonderful, nevertheless definately oud. Though I own and adore Pure Oud By Kilian That is discreetly oud as only Creed could conjure- I did not talk to the worth right before plopping down my card at Saks past thirty day period.
All in all, I found this a wierd just one, I would've seriously desired a smoother opening but what is actually there remains to be undeniable Excellent.
Husband isn't amazed, but I really like the pants off of this scent. Not $350 and a trip to Phoenix really like, but I take pleasure in and regard this fragrance.
This fragrance is Odd. It is exclusive and strong. This reminds of some form of liquorice entice. Royal oud rips my smelling nibs apart It really is that stingy.
". Oh its there other than its been tamed by a chair and whip! This is often how I personally like my scents inexperienced, woody, and aromatic. Royal Oud requires the genre on the fougere and spices it up, in a good way. This scent is very well blended and it has an Total concentration (a woody spicy development) and that's exactly what is so good over it! Provided the notes, I think people today anticipate an exotic middle eastern journey inside of a bottle and it isn't. What it really is, is a cultured scent that rises earlier mentioned the Other folks and can get you seen or maintain your nose delighted all during a sporting. Complete bottle deserving for me. Cleanse and spicy has not smelt so good!

This is a new song I found in my sleep. I had been trying to understand the approach of less melodic artists like Nick Cave, with their dark and moody intensity, not a vibe that I normally create. One day I heard the chorus of this song, with lyrics, as I was waking up. It had the apocalyptic angst, but also with a nice chord change, giving the harmonic movement that I like to have in my songs.
I sang it into my phone so I didn't forget it. Once I had the basic idea, it wasn't hard to come up with some moody words for the verses. I recorded the song with my friend Scott Welsh. Once we had the relatively simple guitars and vocals down, I decorated the track with some mandolin, keeping in a lot of the rough edges on the instrumentation.
What useful things do you find in dreams?

Britain's Royal Mail is inaugurating a new series of miniature sheets celebrating "The Four Countries of the United Kingdom" -- Scotland, England, Northern Ireland and Wales.
Each sheet will consist of three new stamps and one existing country definitive and will be issued on the Saint's Day of the respective country.
The first minisheet -- "Celebrating Scotland" -- will be issued Nov. 30, which is St. Andrew's Day.
The minisheet contains two definitive-size stamps -- the existing first-class "Lion" and a redesigned Scotland flag, or "Saltire," also a first-class stamp.
The two 72-pence stamps, which are three times the size of the definitives, depict St. Andrew and Edinburgh Castle. The stamps in detail:
First-class regional definitive: The Lion of Scotland, originally issued in 1999 as part of "Country Definitives" series.
The 72p St. Andrew: For Scots everywhere, St. Andrew's Day is a chance to celebrate not only their patron saint but their national identity. Every year on Nov. 30 dinners and "ceilidhs," or traditional social dances, are held in honor of St. Andrew, about whom little is known. He is thought to have been a fisherman in Galilee, now part of Israel, along with his elder brother, Simon Peter (St. Peter). Both became apostles of Jesus Christ.
St. Andrew, considered Christ's first disciple, is said to have been responsible for spreading the tenets of the Christian faith though Asia Minor and Greece. According to tradition, he was put to death by the Romans in Patras, in southern Greece, by being pinned to a cross. St. Andrew is also the patron saint of Greece and Russia.
The 72p Edinburgh Castle: Edinburgh, Scotland's capital since the 15th century, has two distinct areas: the Old Town, dominated by the medieval Edinburgh Castle fortress, and the neoclassical New Town. . Today the castle houses the Honors of Scotland (the crown jewels) and is the site of the Edinburgh Tattoo, a popular tourist attraction.

Lol, I mean I know I do things that are amusing to me to the cat all the time, and I'm sure those things irritate him.. but nothing compared to taking him to the vet. I mean really, I would be pretty unimpressed if someone dragged me somewhere in a box, put me on a cold steel table, rammed a stick up my ass and held it there, poked, prodded, inspected and investigated me. And then jabbed me with a needle… all without know what the hell I have done to deserve this. Gold star for him though apparently even though he was wildly frightened and hated every second of it, according to the vet and the vet's assistant he was really very well behaved. And I figured out how to not want to beat him to death in transport, (he yowels like nothing you've ever heard) noise canceling headphones with music!
A group of us are supposed to be going to green island on the next long weekend. I would like to go, but then part of me is horribly lazy and unmotivated and wants to hang out in my room… hmmm.. perhaps I'm still a little cranky 🙂 C'est la vie.
Maybe I'll get a little reading done, or maybe some paper work before class…. yeah finished at 4pm today.

I was shopping in Maine yesterday and found your wonderful store , I was very impressed by every part but one. I was checking out and ran out of American money, I had lots of currency on hand in Canadian .my bill for thus store would have been 300 plus , but I was told by the clerk she could not take canadian money.
Come on people get with the program, we r neighbours and travel back and forth between countries often, you would swear I was passing out yen .This to me shows you don't value Canadians business . Therefore although your store is beautiful I guess I'll stay away on principle and will also tell others to do the same.
Reason of review: Problems with payment.
Monetary Loss: $300.
Preferred solution: Let the company propose a solution.
Great Comment! Would You Like to Convert It Into Review?You will be able to edit the text before publishing.
Terms of Service
I think YOU need a program to get with. The exchange rate is not the same.
Also, its not the company who makes this decision to stick with our own currency its the, what's it called? Oh! The governments! When I first read this I thought it was a joke.
But its actually funnier knowing the person who posted this is serious!!
Ever heard of travelers checks? They've been around awhile.
If you are going to shop in the U.S., then get some American dollars first. How hard is that?
No, they don't want to be bothered with Canadian currency! Who wants to worry about keeping up with daily exchange rates and then having to take it to the bank and convert it to USD and then lose money on the exchange.
How stup*d is that? I guess next we need to take pesos from Mexico!
Are you aware that there isn't word spelled "r?" Canada and the US might be neighbors but the last I heard is that Canadian money busy less than the US currency. It annoys me when I accidentally receive a Canadian coin because vending machines in the US don't accept them.
As far as I have heard the coin counting machines in banks don't count them, just pass them through and whoever receives one is stuck with it. I was having US stores refuse the occasional Canadian coin, way back in the 80s.
This isn't anything new, apparently you haven't come across it before. Do Canadian stores accept US currency?
Stores in bordering communities do typically accept currency from both sides of the border.

With each Passing day we drew closer. Raymond was nice. We had our fights but we always made up soon rather than later.
He pampered me whenever he had the opportunity and time to and he always showered me with gifts.
Ray paid so much attention and care to me that if he opened his mouth to say he didn't love me, I wouldn't have believed.
The times we made out was always 'off-the-hook' and I always found myself wanting more, which I most confess, scared the hell out of me. Because, More meant Sex (right? Yea!) And I didn't want to be involved in pre-marital sex, cause I didn't want to get pregnant.
This bothered me for while as everytime we got intimate, we went a little further and though Ray had been good, restraining himself everytime he 'almost lost control', I wasn't sure if he'd continue and I didn't want to offend or hurt him.
A dilemma I must say.
I just prayed He understood and kept restraining himself, but more, I prayed I continue not wanting sex (cause truly, knowing how sex felt was becoming a recalling thought). God Please Help!
Well He helped.
… That Fateful day.
Ray just came back from a one week long trip to abuja, where he went to see His parents.
I had missed him so much, and couldn't wait for him to get back.
Immediately, He entered my apartment I jumped in excitement and hugged him. He hugged me back. I didn't want to leave his arms. I missed him just so much.
As if on cue, he kissed me.
We kissed for a few moments, then, he released me, dropped his bag and swept me from the ground, carrying me to the room.
He dropped me on the bed and lay down beside me.
He kissed me lightly on my forehead, then my nose, nibbled on her ears before settling his lips on mine. The kiss was long and intense.
"I missed you loads" He said as he drew his mouth away from mine.
He sat up, Took off his shirt and his shoe.
Oh! What a chest he had. I couldn't resist touching it when he lay down beside me again.
Smiling, He drew me closer and kissed me again and slept off with me in his arms.
Seeing him sleep was beautiful. Hearing his breaths was beautiful. Heh! I snuggled. closer and drifted to sleep too.

I have had two occassions where deer have come out of the brush and looked directly at me, while wearing blaze camo. both times the deer were around 100 yds away, and the slight wind was moving from my right to my left. Both times, I was sitting quietly and not moving. Based on those experiences I have a hard time believing that deer cannot distinguish hunter orange.
Watch enough outdoor programming on TV or online, and you might be led to believe that the only way to fill your freezer with tasty venison is by investing a small fortune in the latest and greatest camo. We think it's time for a reality check.
Can top-notch camo increase your odds for successful this fall? Absolutely. But maybe not for the reasons you think. To better understand exactly how deer eyesight works, check out the following infographic.

What's Your Reaction?
2 thoughts on "INFOGRAPHIC: Deer Vision – How to Fool a Whitetail's Eyes"
I know for a fact that deer can see blaze orange – however they see it as a block of darker grey – the fact that all laws state you wear solid blaze orange means that deer will see a solid pattern where they expect a mottled, diffused pattern of brush / limb
best bet is to make sure you are up against a more solid background – if you are in a smaller tree you will standout with light sky behind you – get on the ground against solid brush – much less likely to be spotted.
Another though is to drop down in a tree from 20ft to 6 or 8 ft where your background might be more solid.

We take this opportunity to welcome all colleagues from the festive season and
wish everyon e a productive 2 017 . On behalf of College Management I send our
deepest condolences to colleagues who lost their dear ones in 2016. May their
souls rest in eternal peace. For those who had different forms of achievements
e .g. promotions, Successfully completed their studies, confirm ation into
service, married , got babies etc. We congratulate you.
As we start the new year, we would like to sincerely thank you for the hard
work and commitment to diligently serve the College and the University in
2016 and urge all of us to continue with that spirit. The team work spirit
exhibited last year a midst numerous challenges especially among the HODs,
Deans and other College leaders was impressive. We can only move the College
forward when we all work as a team and each individual makes a contribution
towards realizing the dream College we want. I therefore take this moment to
challenge all of us to individually make a reflection on what each of us did in
2016 that led to value addition in the development of the College and the
Makerere University entered into a partnership with The MasterCard Foundation to offer scholarships to 1,000 academically bright but economically disadvantaged youth from Africa to study at Makerere University from 2013 to 2023.
The project is aimed at developing the next generation of African leaders and contribute to Africa's higher education sector and development and is implemented under the leadership of the Planning and Development Directorate (PDD).
The College of Computing and IS under the Center for Innovations and Professional Skills Development (CiPSD) has several strategies which include assisting government and other institutions to enhance the ICT skills of the youth. By engaging the Planning and Development Directorate (PDD), the CiPSD has embarked on training 200 students under the MasterCard Foundation Scholars Program. The successful students are currently undergoing training in ICDL (International Computer Driving License) scheduled to end 19th November 2016.
The 2016-17 Big Ideas Contest Information session was conducted on Wednesday 12th October in the Incubation Lab, Block B, at the College of Computing and IS.
Big Ideas is an innovation contest that provides funding, support, and encouragement to interdisciplinary teams of undergraduate and graduate students who have creative solutions to address important social challenges. Since its founding in 2006, the competition has inspired over 1,300 student-led projects aimed at solving the world's most pressing problems.
Ms. Deborah Naatujuna, Engagement Manager, Resilient Africa Network (RAN) and her team of interns conducted the two hour session that attracted approximately 50 students. They exchanged information about the available opportunities and advantages students would receive i.e.
- Chance to win up to $18,000,
- Extensive feedback from judges,
- Access to proposal writing, budgeting,
- Skills development workshops,
- 6-week mentorship period for finalist teams etc.
Also mentioned were the various categories one could compete in i.e.
- Financial Inclusion,
- Food Systems,
- Global Health,
- Hardware for Good, and
- Scaling up Big Ideas.
A previous winner and a current intern at RAN, Ms. Grace Nakibaala shared with participants her innovation the No Touch Pedal Tap: A free standing tap connection achieved by modifying the existing water tap system to create a no touch, cost effective solution.

ST. PAUL (WCCO) — Beer was the subject of a rare instance of bipartisan support for a bill at the legislature.
The bill to allow beer at the University of Minnesota's stadium passed its first committee test on Wednesday with unanimous, bipartisan support.
Currently, beer is banned at TCF Bank Stadium.
DFL Representative Joe Atkins has drafted a bill that would allow beer in suites and at a beer garden at the east end of the stadium during Gopher football games.
"Some would say you need a beer at a Gophers game," joked Atkins. "But I hope it's just an opportunity for people to enjoy (responsibly) a beer at a Gophers game and happen to bring in $1.5 million or $2 million in revenue for the U."
Atkins says the bill could be voted on by the full house in the next few days.
If it wins passage, beer sales could begin in time for the upcoming football season.
The Vikings could rent the stadium on Sundays when it isn't being used.
Then maybe they would quit trying to scam Minnesota out of half a billion dollars.
The bill was "drafted", oh how clever WCCO….NOT!!!!!!!!!!!
Bad beer puns make me 'hopping' mad.
I can "barley" contain my laughter!
Now you're making me 'ale'.
Let's not have a big 'brew'-ha-ha.
I thought the option of allowing beer at TCF stadium was at the discretion of the university; I didn't realize it was an important matter of state legislation.
Personally, I have nothing against beer and I do my share to keep the brewers in business. However, all too often beer + football fan = loud, obnoxious, frequently urinating in awkward places, drunken fool ruining the day for my family so I'd just as soon not see it allowed at Gopher games.
Either way, at least the legislators are taking care of the really important matters of state business. Gee, and some of you thought their only purpose in life was to find a way to take your money and give it to Zygi.
Barnacle Bill : BRAVO !! I agree with you 100%. Glad to see the Legislators are dwelling on the important issues (NOT !!). Come on November so I can show My photo I.D. and vote these people out of office !!
it is to bad no one thought of this back in 06 and told the u than that if they wanted state money for the new stadium they needed to allow beer sales.
too bad dumb sports fans are unable to do anything without being drunk all of the time.
Too bad that you don't realize that some people are fans, enjoy the sports they watch and aren't all "dumb". I am sure there are things that you do that I don't like!
So you DO agree they're all drunk though, right?
I know in the case of Viking fans, they are firm believers in the Cliff Claven theory that beer kills all the slow brain cells, thereby making the guzzler "more smarter" as each additional beer is consumed. And that, ladies and gentlemen, explains why Vikings fans want everybody to give money to Zygi!
Ha, and some of you thought that was hard to understand.
The lack of knowledge about this subject being posted here really boggles the mind.
Does anyone read a newspaper anymore??
The only unknowledgeable post here is yours.
G Dog : What are you referring to ???????????????????
Yeah…it will dull the pain of a not-so-good team & make things a little more enjoyable at the Bank!! Vote "yes" for beer!!!
if they restrict beer to the suites and the beer garden then no one will be allowed to bring it back to their seats. They will need security people to stand at the top of every stairway to check for beer. Hmmmm, maybe I can get a job doing that ?
Are they having trouble filling the stadium now because of lack of booze? If not I suspect this has something to do with the Vikings.
You're right, if it smells, it probably does have something to do with the Vikings. Today's chapter of "The Daily Reveal" hasn't been published yet so we don't know which new "how to hose the people" clause of Zygi, Dayton, Mondale and Rybak has been found in "the bill" today.
When they say a beer garden at the east end of the stadium, that probably means outside. Sounds like they are hosing Joe fan.
Good idea. All my rich friends can get drunk, so they can stand to watch the Gophers.
I think currently they serve beer in the locker room before games.

Many want to solve a civilization instead of humanity problem. Philosophical arguments with civilizations philosophical solutions. The problem is civilization itself.
Civilization requires civility in an uncivilized world to make it work
all have to conform, both humanity and nature Humanities philosophy is
wisdom not knowledge. There is no compounding of philosophical
gibberish. It's not ideas of how live the idea of humanity is to live.
There is no key
There is no door
Step out beyond your walls
It's wide open out there
To the stars and beyond
Don't you see it
There is no father
No one abandoned you
You were created by the virgin mother
We call her earth
Join and let us celebrate together
Let us respect and heal her
She will protect and nourish us
She is not a beast to slay
What are you afraid of
Only you were created in your own image
Face it
Don't be afraid of your own skin
You are loved

text: Nintendo has finally been taking the right (and necessary) steps in 2014 – and late 2013. More production from 1st and 2nd party games, showing more confidence in their latest console, and promoting the heck out of their products (SM3DW, DKC: Tropical Freeze, Smash Bros, MK8). Mariokart 8 is going to be their biggest launch title, and hardware mover; hopefully creating a larger install base so 3rd party developers will come back and actually make games on the Wii U, but that's another discussion. The folks over at GameXplain have released another side by side comparison of the Mariokart series – this time it is Donut Plains from the SNES and Wii U versions. Have a look, and get even more excited!

It's time for all other glow-inducing products in town to bow down because there's a new skin perfecting dewifying trio in town.
OSKIA Get Up & Glow – This is the first step to achieving a fabulous glow! A lightweight revitalising and energising serum that brightens and enlivens skin. The serum has a pearlescent appearance and looks stunning on the skin. It's hard to describe, but this is a definite staple in my everyday makeup routine now which means it's got to be good.
If this is a bit too pricey for you then try the…
DIOR Glow Maximizer Light Boosting Primer – This little tube houses the most luminous looking liquid I've ever seen, it claims to brighten the complexion and create a radiance-enhanced base for the rest of your makeup menu. The pearl liquid creates a luminous finish that foundations sit beautifully on top of or get mixed in with for an oomph-ed up finish. Beautiful.
NARS Sheer Glow – This stuff vanishes into the skin tocreate a really, really flawless looking complexion. It lasts well, and the shade Santa Fe is a perfect match for me and it just looks natural, letting my natural sheen peek through amping up the glow, while keeping the coverage in place. A glowing, natural radiant finish foundation that evens skin tone and brings the glow.
A glowing look is perfect for the summer and looks good on everyone. If you're giving the glow a go, try these three to start the ball rolling.

Today the San Francisco Chronicle outed Prop 8 Trial Judge Walker as gay, which has apparently been known to most insiders in the case – including the defense – but is only now being given media attention.
The chronicle states: The biggest open secret in the landmark trial over same-sex marriage being heard in San Francisco is that the federal judge who will decide the case, Chief U.S. District Judge Vaughn Walker, is himself gay. Many gay politicians in San Francisco and lawyers who have had dealings with Walker say the 65-year-old jurist, appointed to the bench by President George H.W. Bush in 1989, has never taken pains to disguise – or advertise – his orientation.
They also don't believe it will influence how he rules on the case he's now hearing – whether Proposition 8, the 2008 ballot measure approved by state voters to ban same-sex marriage, unconstitutionally discriminates against gays and lesbians. "There is nothing about Walker as a judge to indicate that his sexual orientation, other than being an interesting factor, will in any way bias his view," said Kate Kendell, head of the National Center for Lesbian Rights, which is supporting the lawsuit to overturn Prop. 8. As evidence, she cites the judge's conservative – albeit libertarian – reputation, and says, "There wasn't anyone who thought (overturning Prop. 8) was a cakewalk given his sexual orientation."
Although the defense is 'claiming' that they will not make an issue of this should Judge Walker rule against Prop 8, it is certain the extremist right will – and already is.

Our next Silicon Valley Insights event is just around the corner. Jan Spidlen, a software engineer from Dropbox, will be sitting down with STRV COO Lubo Smid on November 12 at Cinema City Slovansky dum to talk about the San Francisco Bay Area's tech scene. Before joining Dropbox earlier this year, Jan previously worked for Google and NVIDIA.
You won't want to miss this! Get your tickets on Eventbrite today!
Can't wait to hear what Jan has to say? We asked him a few questions to whet your appetite:
How often do you come back to the Czech Republic?
Usually once or twice a year. Last time it was spring 2015. I had a blast. Prague is definitely one of the best cities in the world, and I love coming back here.
Why do you think you have succeeded on the US market?
First off, I am not sure if I have succeeded (at least not yet). People define success in different terms, and I don't think that right now I am in a position to call myself successful. I think that I am on the right path but the path is long (this is probably for a longer discussion:)).
Anyways, I think that one of the most important things that got me where I am now is a lot of hard work – always doing extra, overachieving and pushing myself to the limits. On top of that, I was given great opportunities to study at great technical schools such as Czech Technical University in Prague and Georgia Institute of Technology, which definitely helped a lot.
Last but not least, there was some amount of luck involved as well (there always is).
What are the other technology companies are iconic in your opinion?
There is a bunch of great tech companies. From the old-timers, I am going to nominate Abode, as they once had top-level software for digital content editing – there was nothing like it (I am not sure what's the situation now). From the new ones, I select Tesla. Tesla is combining great technological advancements and disrupting the car manufacturing sector, which seems extremely difficult and challenging to me.

It seems that when the government needs money, they take a look around to see where they can take it from, and New York State has hit the medical profession again.
New York State has implemented an across the board Medicaid payment reduction of 1.1%. The reduction started on all checks issued after September 15, 2010 and will continue until March 31, 2011. This reduction is due to the 2010-2011 State Budget and it was enacted to address financial plan deficiencies relating to reductions to the FMAP or Federal Medical Assistance Percentage authorized by Congress.
Providers have been trying to fight this reduction but up thru last week have been unsuccessful. They have appealed to Albany lawmakers with no luck, so they have taken their fight to Washington.
These cuts come on top of previous state cuts to the Medicaid program and come at a time where providers are already operating at a break-even level or even at a loss. Many fear that these cuts may push providers who are on the fence to stop participating in the Medicaid program which will make it difficult for patients to get medical care.
So now what does this really mean? In my opinion it means that our state government desperately needs money so they decided to take it from medical providers. What they are doing is figuring out what Medicaid should pay, putting it all down in black and white on the EOB, then subtracting 1.1% to keep for themselves. I guess they thought that such a low percent might go unnoticed, but I think they are wrong. At a time when providers are already facing high expenses and lower reimbursements, they are just cutting more. How much will the providers take? What state is next?

Reviews for ColorfulTabs by KongKing
Rated 3 out of 5 stars
Colorful tabs is great but sadly versions 19.8 and 19 are now incompatible with the Tab Utilities extension's appearance options.
Best to stay with CT version 17.8 which is compatible with Tab Utilities.
Rated 4 out of 5 stars
CT Version 17.8 is good, but later CT versions destroy Tab Utilities, which is a vital add-on for FF. Don't install later versions.This review is for a previous version of the add-on (18.5.1-signed).

If you remember during the great debate on healthcare, we were told time and time again that Obamacare would insure anywhere from 30 million to 48 million uninsured people? Without spending 2.7 trillion dollars, these people would be one sickness away from ruin. Guess what? With less than a month to go, only 4.2 million previously uninsured have signed up. And that includes people who signed up but never paid for their policy. Insurance companies have been pretty consistent in reporting a 15% rate who do not purchase insurance. That leaves 3.6 million people. And of those 3.6 million people, how many are getting free Medicaid? My guess would be between 1/3 and 1/2.
Reports from the White House Council of Economic Advisers predicted 46 million:
"Perhaps the most visible sign of the need for health care reform is the 46 million Americans currently without health insurance."

text: Being a christian is never easy. The Lord never promised a bed of roses to any of His disciples. He wanted those who followed Him to follow Him for who He was. The person of Jesus , His authority, His call, His love , His grace and all He has is so much to be desired and coveted than the riches of the world. Its worth to lose it all to gain Him. St Paul counted all that was gain to him as loss. A true disciple of the Lord goes through this path. Friends whom you counted, treasures that you cherished, the feeling of acceptance that you valued, all these has to go to experience the beauty of Christ. What our blessed Lord Jesus echoed in these lines were-Yes you are going to feel comfortless, things are going to be strange. The first century christians faced persecutions unlike any other people group. All the apostles except for St John was martyred. They expected it, they counted it a privilege to suffer for Christ. Polycarp the first century martyr was forced to submit to the orders of Caesar-The Proconsul asked him whether he was Polycarp. On hearing that he was, he tried to persuade him to apostatize, saying, ŌĆ£Have respect for your old age, swear by the fortune of Caesar. Repent, and say, ŌĆśDown with the Atheists!ŌĆÖŌĆØ Polycarp looked grimly at the wicked heathen multitude in the stadium, and gesturing towards them, he said, ŌĆ£Down with the Atheists!ŌĆØ ŌĆ£Swear,ŌĆØ urged the Proconsul, ŌĆ£reproach Christ, and I will set you free.ŌĆØ ŌĆ£86 years have I have served him,ŌĆØ Polycarp declared, ŌĆ£and he has done me no wrong. How can I blaspheme my King and my Savior?ŌĆØ. The witness account says that He was escorted to heaven in powerful glory. Let our story be all about Him. Let's be zealous for the fear of the Lord. He will never leave us comfortless, He will come to us.

My good friend, Erotixx, posted this over at his blog and I just loved the images so much, it deserved a reblog.
Am a lucky man today, have my 5 favourite friends at my place and after a few wine and now starting on the rum we of course started talking about sex as one does *grin*. It helps that all my friends are girls and they of course know about my blog. Showed them my last evening post which made them browse away on my tumblr account for more with some hot guys in the picture so here you go on behalf of my girlfriends.

We always have taken it on faith that cream rises to the top. It was a dairy thing before it was a sports thing, but the quaint imagery still works. The smartest, most talented and hardest working athletes usually prevail.
But now that the juice has contaminated the milk, we don't know what to believe anymore. We're not sure about what we're seeing or whom we're seeing. We don't know whether we're watching the best athlete or the best that pharmaceuticals have to offer.

Parcel Transport
The expenditure of moving a package depends on its size, weight and the trip it is going to make. To find most advantageous way for shipping, show your item charge-free on Clicktrans.com. In a flash you will receive offers coming from transport providers. These transport providers usually take jobs nearby and they can drop your delivery along the way. Before the transport provider shows up at your door, make sure to describe your posting in detail. It is useful to mention the things inside the parcel, their specific features like substance they are made of or if they are potenatially flimsy, slimsy. These details are truly important when we want to ship glass windows, electronic devices, food, ceramic dishes and other items that require extra care during transport. Before you contact a transport provider make sure that he provides an insurance suitable for the service you require.
How to secure a package?
To make your package prepared for shipping do not forget to protect it from being damaged. fill up the empty space with pieces of expanded polystyrene sawdust, stripes of cartoon, sponge. especially friable elements like glass or valuable cuttlery, porcelain we should protect with bubble foil, airbags.
Where do I find materials to protect my parcel?
You can find cardboard and paper boxes in heavy duty, construction shops or home improvement stores. Otherwise, have a quick walk to the nearest mall and ask a person from the assistants team to help you. When we put all the items we need inside the cartoon box, let's be sure it's in a good condition, there are no labels that could be misleading either for you (if you have more than one parcel to transport in one batch) or for the shipping provider.

There's something about people who are always tooting their own horn that rubs me the wrong way—people who are unapologetically blunt, who profess their greatness as a matter of fact rather than opinion, who don't understand why everyone else hasn't achieved the same level of success that they have. And I'm even more baffled by the people who admire these individuals, who become disciples almost, constantly touting their praises, looking to them for advice and direction, only to be arrogantly shunned or patronized depending on the type of day their role model is having.
Still, I realize I'm a part of the crowd too. I follow these people on Twitter, I read the formsprings to see just how much annoyance will show up in their answer to someone's question, I go to their websites and read their blogs, because there's something about that very boldness that attracts people and makes them believers. It makes you question whether you're being unfair because when someone knows they're hot, who can tell them otherwise?
Growing up, I recall hearing comments about other women, like "she thinks she's so great/cute/special/etc." that sent the message that one shouldn't think too highly of themselves. In church, I was taught to be the antithesis of a horn blower: Blessed are the meek for they shall inherit the earth; Whoever exalts himself will be humbled, and whoever humbles himself will be exalted; If I must boast, I will boast of the things that show my weakness. And others would tell me, "People are watching," as if to say that one has to tone themselves down for the sake of onlookers.
I understand what the Bible is getting at in terms of remembering that life on earth is nothing compared to what awaits in Heaven, and that our talents are gifts from God and we should not be too proud, but is it so wrong to think that you are amazing and to not care if others are looking? How do these messages affect our psyche and our personal relationships and even our professional lives? Read more @Clutch

For those wondering what would happen to Florida's Urban Meyer, here is your answer from the SEC:
BIRMINGHAM – University of Florida head football coach Urban Meyer has been fined $30,000 by the Southeastern Conference for his public comments concerning officiating, Commissioner Mike Slive announced Friday.
The fine is the first since the conference's Athletic Directors, with the full support of the league's Presidents and Chancellors, voted to have all violations of SEC Bylaw 10.5.4 enforced by suspensions and fines.
"Coach Meyer has violated the Southeastern Conference Code of Ethics,†Slive said. "SEC Bylaw 10.5.4 clearly states that the coaches, players and support personnel shall refrain from public criticism of officials. The league's Athletics Directors and Presidents and Chancellors have made it clear that negative public comments on officiating are not acceptable.â€

$290 euro for the table, are they nuts????
Posted by Mark on July 12, 2011 at 5:20 AM (CDT)
I like the concept and the price is just so high because there is no demand (yet). However, I might stop at homedepot and build me my personalized slot table. you can even use any wooden. metal table, cut a slot, smooth the edges, apply a scratch resident film, and install a stopper on the bottom part of the table which stops the ipad to slide through. Its a very easy concept and if someone is handy and have the right tools, it's a one day job.
We should actually do a little contest to see who comes up with the best table…. :D
Posted by dennis on July 12, 2011 at 8:12 AM (CDT)
Hmmmm…a one day job you say….8 X $ 50/hour.. Yeah they are nuts! I think I'll buy one!
Posted by esther on July 12, 2011 at 10:22 AM (CDT)
lol,.. i can most likely design a attractive iPad slot in any table within minutes and I have the tools to do so. I would probably charge not more to $ 75 to get any table modified :D ...
Just go to the local thrift store and see if u find a nice cheap table, sand it, modify it, spray paint it and good to go.
I love projects like that.
a few weeks ago, I've read of a bamboo slide cradle for the iPhone4. That was a great idea! I had 3000sft of thick beautiful bamboo that I cut down and threw away 3 years ago…. I coulda been rich now :D :D :D

Hah, just wait 'till the dog tips that top-heavy table over onto your foot. Not only will your iPad crash to the ground, that slim table top will shear your toe off like a Vienna sausage.

I think introducing a wild dog could make ANY gadget or thing sound dumb.
Posted by Clint on July 13, 2011 at 1:49 PM (CDT)
The base looks like a powder coated steel plate so I doubt it would tip over very easily. But I wouldn't feel comfortable putting my iPad into the top slot if it didn't have some sort of way to lock it into place.

MMA World Series of Fighting will begin scheduling pay-per-view events in the second half of 2015, the company announced today. Since the company began promoting events in 2012, their events have been seen on NBC Sports Network.
That's news in itself — but there's something possibly even more noteworthy here. WSOF reports that they will split half of net revenue from each PPV to the event's fighters.
A press release describes this as "a radical move that could forever change the earning potential of mixed martial arts fighters."
WSOF President Ray Sefo, pictured above (middle) at WSOF 13, explains: "This is a proud day for the sport of mixed martial arts and our organization and one that we hope will create a better opportunity for the fighters who put everything on the line every time they step inside the cage."
"Until now," continued Sefo, "one of the main things holding this sport back from becoming even bigger than it is today has been fighter compensation and the inability of the sport's top athletes to earn on par with top-level professional athletes in other sports.
"If fighters can't earn a fair share of the money at the top," said Sefo, "the fighters lose hope or become disenchanted with the sport, which impacts their commitment to training and preparing properly for title fights. That is about to change, thanks to this major step we are taking now fighters will train harder than ever to become a champion giving the fans some epic championship bouts to enjoy. We want to thank NBC Sports and NBC for giving us such an amazing stage to grow World Series of Fighting since its debut."
World Series of Fighting holds their next event, WSOF 14, on October 11. Jake Shields and Ryan Ford will headline the card in a welterweight bout.

Do you make plans to exercise and then never follow through? Do you always take the easy way to get somewhere? Do you wish you were more fit? This article will explain how to achieve your fitness goals. It is easier than you might expect.
Get a pet. Pets keep you more active. While almost any kind of pet will add some extra movement and responsibility to your day, pets that you have to walk are usually ideal. Walking the dog is a great way to add a little extra fitness to your average routine.
To prevent injury while lifting weights on a bench, make sure the bench is well-cushioned. When the bench is too hard, it can throw your spine out of alignment as you exercise, which in turn can damage the nerves in your arms. An easy test is to press down on the bench. Being able to feel the wood is a sign you need to move to a different bench.
In order to maximize your running fitness, be sure to give yourself a break every six weeks or so. This will allow your body to recover and help to prevent injury. During this break week, it is advisable to not rest completely, but to cut the workload in half.
A great way to get fit is to join a recreational basketball team. All of the running up and down the court will guarantee you'll get in shape. Joining a recreational basketball team can also be a lot of fun if you have friends that join it also.
If you're looking to get in shape another thing to consider is to gradually increase the difficulty of your regimen. If you increase it too fast you will lose your motivation, and too slow, the results will be too slow. For example if you used to walk 30 minutes a day at a rate of three miles an hour increase it to thirty minutes, or increase your speed to three and a half miles per hour.
Stay motivated by changing your fitness routine whenever you start to get bored. You might just discover a new favorite class to keep your excitement level up as you go to the gym. Try out a dance or pilates class. Or, you can try out kickboxing or basketball. The great thing about trying different classes is that you need not return to any you don't like, and you'll still be working out productively throughout the trial process.
Although wearing a weight belt is ideal during overhead presses, squats, and other maximal lifts, it should not be worn all the time. By training regularly while wearing the weight belt, you might actually decrease the effectiveness and tone of your abdominal and lower back muscles, therefore sacrificing your hard-earned muscular strength.
To improve your fitness regime you should try to increase your swimming speed. You can do this by increasing the flexibility of your feet. When you have flexible feet, you can propel through the water faster. To increase this flexibility, you should sit on the floor with bare feet. Stretch out your legs with your heels on the floor. Point your toes out as much as you can and then flex them toward your shins as much as possible. Do this for one minute.
Add calcium rich foods, such as low-fat milk to your daily diet to boost the effects of your workouts. Try to consume at least 600 milligrams or more of calcium everyday. This about two glasses of low-fat milk. Also add other calcium-rich items to your diet such as broccoli, cottage cheese, low-fat yogurt, etc.
When working out, you should always work in sets. But, instead of counting up to see how many sets you have already completed, you should count down, so that you have more motivation and drive to finish those last sets of your work out.
In any kind of football, most people have trouble trying to shake their defender when going out to catch the ball. A good tip to do this is to stay as close as possible to him, then shorter your strides to allow you to cut in and out easier to catch the ball.
When cycling, you should aim to keep your speed around 80 to 110 rpm. This will allow you to ride farther with less knee strain and fatigue. To calculate your speed, you should count the number of times your right leg goes to the top of the pedal stroke in ten seconds. Once you calculate this number, multiply by six. This gives you your pedal rpms.
A great tip to boost your metabolism and increase the speed at which you burn calories is simple: take a walk after meals. This technique kick-starts your metabolism and begins burning fat, protein and other nutrients. By walking after meals, you ensure that your metabolism is working at a high rate throughout the day--you also make it more difficult for your body to store calories as fat.
A great way to get your kids to exercise is to get them involved with a sport. Not every child is going to like football or basketball, so try to find one they do like. Whether it's tennis, karate, or swimming, as long as they're being active and having fun, give them encouragement.
Consider breaking your run into a few different parts. Start slowly, then gradually increase your speed to your normal pace. Push yourself to run as fast as you can in the final portion. If you follow this tip you will boost your endurance and increase distance.
Motivate yourself in your own fitness goals by motivating others. You can have a huge impact on your own well being when you encourage someone else. It does not matter if it is a friend, or family member, you chose to build up. Improvement will breed improvement and you will both win.
By reading this article, you are one step closer to making your fitness a reality. Follow our advice and you will realize that getting healthy is not as difficult or painful as you may have thought. As you work out and get fit, you will feel your health improve.

We're back from International Quilt Market in Houston, TX and what a wonderful show it was! In my last email I promised to give you the entire scoop on my first Quilt Market as a fabric designer for Robert Kaufman Fabrics. What a fantastic experience! I started my weekend off by leading a Schoolhouse Session on Marketing to Today's Modern Mom. I had a great turnout, and was delighted to share my tips for selling my new line of fabric, Chirp!
I had a great crowd! It made my first presentation much easier!!
I also had fantatic assistants!!
Here is a look at what the attendees recieved- a charm pack of my fabric. I also had examples of kits that we will sell in the shop.
After Schoolhouse day, I was stationed in my own little booth off of Robert Kaufman Fabrics for the 3 days of Market.
Here I am helping a new shop write an order for my line!!
I featured the Kwik Sew pattern #3685 for the nursery set. It is a great pattern with instructions for the bumper pads, crib sheet, crib skirt & diaper stacker.
Gina made up these adorable pillows from my panel fabric.
Here is a look at the precut items that Robert Kaufman is offering: fat quarter bundles and 10″ square sets.
In this photo you can see some of the free patterns that will be offered: DREAM letters and a panel quilt.
And, finally here is a look at my cheerleaders!
We will soon be posting all of the items that will be available for purchase on our website including kits for 3 quilts that take the line from baby to teen, the panel quilt, a memory board, the nursery bedding, & yardage of course! The fabric is scheduled to hit stores nationwide in February. We will be hosting a baby shower for the line of fabric on Saturday March 6th all day, so mark your calendars for a great day of fun!
Although it felt like market was all about my line of fabric, we had lots of fun visiting our favorite vendors & quilting celebrities! Have you heard that Kaye England will be here in Perham on Sunday November 15th? It's true! We are hosting a dinner with Kaye at the Perham Golf Course along with Blow's Sew & Vac of Fargo. Tickets are only $18 in advance ($20 on that day). We guarantee you will have a great time! Kaye will present a trunk show of quilts, demo rulers, etc… and definitely keep you laughing. Sign up by calling the shop or visit our website under Event Tickets.
My mom, Sarah, was also excited about the new fabric company Blue Hill. They will have a new paper dolls line of fabric in our shop soon.
Maggy was inspired by Amy Bulter's booth and she and my mom had fun taking a picture in Moda's booth.
My mom also fell in love with a line of fabric by Karen Montgomery for Timeless Treasures.
Anyone need a rebel? The motorcycle image in the center of this quilt is actually a panel from Free Spirit Fabrics. Cool!
On the last day of market I always visit the Seven Islands booth to indulge in fabrics and products from Japan. This year I fell in love with tons of stuff!! We've ordered products from this adorable baby line:
And we also ordered prints featuring a cute dog, mushrooms, flowers, and so much more. It is like Christmas every time I open a box from them!
And, just in time for some Halloween inspiration, take a look at Alexander Henry's booth display. It won first place for multiple booth entries. The more you look at the pictures the more you see, including the witch who is sewing a black and gray quilt.
Here we are buying next year's Halloween prints from Alexander Henry. They will be in the shop in May 2010!
It was a great trip, filled with lots of memories! We ordered a fantastic assortment of new fabrics, gifts, & notions. Some items have already started to arrive in the shop, while others will start arriving in the next couple months. I will keep you updated on everything! Happy Quilting!!
