Taylor Swift feared bosses at technology giant Apple would turn her cell phone off and wipe all her music from iTunes after she stood up to them in a dispute over streaming.
The pop superstar hit headlines across the globe over the summer (15) when she wrote an open letter to the firm accusing bosses of short-changing artists by refusing to pay royalties during a three-month free trial period for subscribers.
Apple chiefs later reversed their decision in a landmark victory for Taylor, but the singer has now revealed she feared the stunt could backfire on her.
Taylor made the admission during an interview with DJ Zane Lowe on Apple Music's Beats 1 Radio to promote a new concert film she is releasing via Apple Music this month (Dec15).
"I was struck with this overwhelming sense of fear," she tells the host. "Like, are they going to turn my phone off? Are they going to turn the video camera on? Are they watching me right now? Am I going to wake up tomorrow and all of my music will be off of iTunes? Like, absolute terror hit."
Taylor's new film is directed by Jonas Akerlund and features footage from a show on her 1989 World Tour concert in New Zealand which was filmed last month (Nov15).
The footage will be available on Apple's streaming service from 20 December (15) and features backstage clips, tour rehearsals, and appearances by special guests who have joined the pop star on stage during the trek, including Mick Jagger, Justin Timberlake and Selena Gomez.
"Getting ready for this I wondered about a lot of things," Taylor declares in the trailer for the film. "I wondered what it would be like to perform for 70,000 people. I wondered what would happen if I invited the most amazing artists in the world to come out with me and perform on my stage - would they do it?"
The news was announced as Taylor celebrated her 26th birthday on Sunday (13Dec15), just a day after she wrapped her seven-month 1989 tour in Melbourne, Australia on Saturday (12Dec15).

Justin Hoyte in Cincinnati
On a brisk Friday afternoon in the aptly named 'Queen City', I sit in an archetypical American restaurant located on the banks of the Ohio river awaiting the imminent arrival of a fellow Brit abroad. Cincinnati itself may not appear on most English people's list of must see places in the United States however it is considered a major city that lives for its sports teams. The Cincinnati Reds, the oldest franchise in Major League baseball, and the Cincinnati Bengals of the NFL are the two foremost teams in the city but in the last two years another team has been stealing all the headlines. Futbol Club Cincinnati or more affectionately known by the locals as 'FCC' only had its first competitive league game on 26 March 2016 and has since hosted Crystal Palace and Valencia at Nippert Park in front of record crowds. Fast forward 18 months this club is the reason I am sitting down to chat with former Arsenal starlet Justin Hoyte, who considers the current LA Galaxy left back Ashley Cole as his mentor, about his football journey from Leytonstone to 'the Natti'.

text: A playful artist reveals that the process is the key aspect to her eccentric creations. Malwina's work reaches another level of consciousness that will conjure curiosity. A teacher of ceramics, she shares with her students a philosophy of the reconstruction of her own intimate memories. Unpredictable and abstract sculptures are the result of experimental works that are a reflection of inner visions based on immortal and traditional techniques. Fingertips that focus solely on the spontaneity and the casual flow of chance, her hands transfer fluky coincidences and too, the fragments of recollections of her past into the physical world. Each purposefully accidental structure expresses character and paints a three-dimensional picture that describes personality to which every one of us can easily relate and recapture the flashback reminders of who we all really are. Beyond the odd and random lies an admirable concept. ODEM noted the affectionate memoir and emphasis on the smaller functional objects also being recognized as sculptures to bestow an abstruse representation of life in Stockholm. Reminisce and adore this designer's retrospective point of view through her works and refreshing shapes with candlesticks and spectacle petite ornaments.

I've heard various things, such as the class of the MicroSD generally dictates the write speed, and nothing to do with the read speed. Which, as I understand, would mean that the speed rating only relates to the speed of saving games. Is that true? I use only Kingston cards, too.

New Public Accountability on Ethics AgreementsTweet
May 18, 2017
The Office of Government Ethics (OGE) established a new certification that tracks presidential appointees' ethics compliance. The compliance certifications will be posted online. Both the new format and proactive disclosure should create greater accountability when it comes to appointees' ethics commitments.
Dale Christopher, Deputy Director of OGE, issued an explanatory memo and the new compliance form to all Designated Agency Ethics Officials (DAEO) on May 11. The memo explains that all Senate approved presidential appointees will now be required to submit the new form to certify that they have complied with each aspect of their ethics agreement.
Presidential appointees sign specific ethics agreements that lay out actions the individual must take to limit any potential conflicts of interest or other ethical issues associated with their new position. The steps can include completing trainings, divesting from certain investments, resigning from boards and other positions, and recusing themselves from involvement in issues related to companies that would cause conflicts of interest. Appointees typically have 90 days to comply with the ethics requirements.
In the past DAEOs would provide OGE with documentation that each appointee was in compliance with the terms of their ethics agreements. But OGE noticed that the format and content of the compliance reporting from ethics officials varied between agencies. The new form should ensure that all major areas are clearly addressed by every appointee and will provide those reviewing the responses with better baseline data to then identify outliers and unusual responses.
Most of the questions on the certification require a yes or no answer (or NA if the issue isn't a part of the requirements in the appointee's ethics agreement). This approach makes it clear to appointees that compliance is an absolute: either the requirement has been met completely or it hasn't. The certification form also drives home the seriousness of accurate answers by including a statement that false or misleading responses are illegal and punishable by fine, imprisonment, or both.
Another significant step toward accountability is that the OGE has announced the completed certifications will be posted on their website for public review. Previously, people had to file a Freedom of Information Act (FOIA) request to obtain copies of ethics compliance documentation. By making access to the records easier, OGE is essentially ensuring greater use of the collected data by Congressional staff, reporters, researchers, nonprofits, and others.
This effort to better document and disclose ethics compliance fits with other OGE activities to improve the quality and accessibility of OGE's data. The office recently issued a call for data from the administration on waivers and authorizations issued to appointees. OGE also reported to the Project On Government Oversight that it will soon begin electronically posting all records released through FOIA, rather than waiting for multiple requests. This echoes the "release to one, release to all" approach the Department of Justice requested public input on last December. POGO supports the approachbut notes that building in a modest delay before public posting could help ensure that FOIA remains a useful tool for investigative journalists.

Enhance your GeoMax Zoom90 Total Station sensor with "X-Pole" to a solution, increasing your performance and flexibility.
By combining the advantages of both systems, the new solution significantly improves the performance and flexibility on the jobsite.
The seamless integration of X-Pole into the field software allows a toggle between both measurement modes. Simply decide with one button press if you want to change from TPS to GNSS mode, like in case some points cannot be measured with TPS due to limited prism visibility. Once those points are measured switch back to TPS mode. This enhances the efficiency of the system, since it eliminates the need for cumbersome and time consuming station setups.
Zoom90`s Track360 functionality allows following a moving prism. In case of loss of lock, the X-Pole solution immediately finds the pole position by obtaining the coordinates from the GNSS receiver, mounted on top of the prism.

It looks like Scarlett Johansson won't be starring in Pride and Prejudice and Zombies after all.
The Los Angeles says the Iron Man 2 babe, who was previously reported as replacing Natalie Portman in the film, won't star in Lionsgate's screen adaptation of the Seth Grahame-Smith mashup novel. No reason was given, but it's known that the studio wants Zombies to film next year and Johansson's dance card for then is already pretty full with The Avengers, Under the Skin and possibly The Great Gatsby.
Bradley Cooper remains attached (for now) to play the male lead of Darcy. Meanwhile, the hunt continues for a director.
The Times claims that earlier contenders Mike Newell and Matt Reeves both passed on the project because they need more mainstream, surefire hits after suffering the domestic disappointments of Prince of Persia and Let Me In, respectively.
The paper says the current frontrunners to direct are Mike White (Orange County), Neil Marshall (Centurion, The Descent) and Jeffrey Blitz (Spellbound, Rocket Science).

Author: Ed Lieber/Tuesday, May 27, 2014/Categories: New Jersey Accidents
A jury awarded a Vernon, NJ couple $19.3 million for the injuries the husband suffered after a motorcycle accident that occurred in 2010.
After hours of deliberations at the New Jersey Supreme Court, the jury elected to give out the highest monetary award in Sussex County for a personal injury case, according to MotorcycleAccidnt.org.
Court documents show that Steven Visaggio, 62, was riding his motorcycle along Route 23 in Sussex County when he was hit from behind by a driver. The accident left Steven Visaggio with permanent spinal cord, lower back, and shoulder and neck injuries, according to MotorcylcleAccident.org.
Steven Visaggio's wife, Barbara Ann Visaggio, was not involved in the accident, but the jury factored in her emotional pain and suffering into their decision. The verdict also orders that the driver's insurance company, Geico, must pay $15.5 million to Steven Visaggio and an additional $3.8 million to his wife.
The driver who hit Visaggio pled guilty to reckless driving.
Steven Visaggio, a father of eight children, was the owner of AB&S Home Improvements before suffering his injuries. The accident left him unable to run his business for several months. His inability to bring in income greatly affected the entire family, MotorcycleAccidnent.org reported. Court documents claim he will likely require additional spinal cord surgery in the future.
The lawyer for Visaggio said the case was an example of "an insurance company deciding to roll the dice, to gamble that a Sussex County jury would not award damages for these injuries, and they guessed wrong," motorcycleaccient.org reported.
The verdict could have lasting implications as Visaggio's lawyer believes when the next person is seriously injured in Sussex County, insurance companies will know the serious financial repercussions a trial can produce.

Public Health and Wellbeing Amendment (Hairdressing Registration) Bill 2015
Mr HOWARD(Buninyong) — I am certainly delighted to be able to speak on the Public Health and Wellbeing Amendment (Hairdressing Registration) Bill 2015. As we have heard from previous speakers, this bill relates to an issue which is very close to my heart — that is, hairdressing. Over many years I have spent a lot of time with hairdressers, and I have to say that I am occasionally a little disappointed with the results. I guess there is only so much you can do over a period of time.
I am pleased to have dealt with so many different hairdressers across my electorate — sometimes as a client but more often perhaps not as a client. I often visit as a former teacher of somebody who is now working in a hairdressing or beauty salon. I have been very pleased over the years, even up until last year, to visit my local TAFE because it has a great course in hairdressing. I am pleased to say that the hairdressing course is continuing, but unfortunately the beauty therapy courses that were offered at Federation University TAFE were discontinued as a result of the cuts in TAFE funding under the former government. That was disappointing to the students who were undertaking those courses at the time. Right across my electorate, and I include Hepburn shire from my former electorate, beauty therapy is a major employer, as is hairdressing, which is why I am very sorry to see that those young people were not able to be trained or do those TAFE courses that they had previously been able to do. The opportunities for them to go into those sorts of jobs have been lost. That is a source of great disappointment to me.
The bill before the house relates to this government's commitment to cutting red tape wherever possible to support our small businesses. As we have heard from other speakers, something like 4000 small businesses across the state provide hairdressing or beauty treatments. They are generally very small, owner-run businesses, perhaps with two or three additional staff, although there are some bigger academies around, some of which are in my electorate. This government is satisfied that, while we always need to ensure that health and safety regulations are followed by any business in any industry and local governments have a responsibility to review those issues, hairdressing and beauty therapy do not present great health risks and therefore the need to have annual registration fees is believed to be a case of overkill.
This bill provides the opportunity to have one-off registrations, which will mean a saving of $170 on average per year for hairdressing and beauty salons across the state. The bill will also reduce the amount of paperwork councils will need to follow up on and the number of visits needed to be made by environmental health officers. These visits would normally occur once a year to justify the registration by checking that the premises are clean and tidy, but we believe this is no longer necessary. A council health regulator should be able to go to a premises and decide whether its operators are able to ensure a clean, well-managed environment without creating any health risks. Certainly that has always been my experience of hairdressers: they are always very keen to ensure that their premises are clean, tidy and healthy. It is worth clarifying that this change does not apply to businesses that offer more invasive treatments such as body piercing or tattooing. This sort of business will continue to require that extra health assessment by councils and attract annual registrations. This bill enables hairdressers to save on their annual registration.
The bill recognises that there should be a balance between the burden of paperwork and an appropriate level of requirements to be met by a business in a particular industry. If a business is able to demonstrate that it is healthy and not presenting any threats to those who enter its premises, we do not need to pursue them for extra money and paperwork or carry out additional inspections.
Like all other members who have spoken on this bill, I am pleased that it has bipartisan support and that it should be able to move through both houses fairly quickly so these savings will accrue from next year and so from 2016 the onus will be that affected businesses will only have to make one payment from thereon, which will mean ongoing savings.
The hairdressing industry is an important industry across my electorate and my contribution to it is not necessarily personal. I know that in particular the women in my family value hairdressers in my community and seem to spend plenty of my well-earnt money on supporting hairdressing establishments. I am more than happy that this occurs so the women in my family can feel good about themselves and the treatment they receive gives them great satisfaction. I will not say too much more by going down that path.
In days gone by I have attempted to go to some of the fancier hairdressers in town where the hairdressers have you put your head back and then wash your hair, which is also a nice experience. When I travelled to India I had the opportunity to go to hairdressers there. Of course hairdressers in India are not affected by this legislation; however, those hairdressers give you a full head massage and thump your head so that you go away feeling a lot better. Unfortunately that experience did not result in a lot of extra hair growth on my part. Nevertheless, when I was in India and went to those hairdressers a few years ago I did find that I learnt a bit about ways of undertaking hairdressing practices at different salons in various parts of the world.
As I said, I am pleased to support this bill. I would love to see more young people in my electorate being able to go on to learn the art of hairdressing and the art of beauty treatment, which they had previously been able to do. I am also looking forward to this government supporting our TAFE institutes again so that courses that were run in my area that no longer run are able to be run again and at affordable prices for those people who undertake them. I want to see the hairdressing and beauty industry continue to flourish in this state and continue to benefit many people across my electorate.
Debate adjourned on motion of Mr NORTHE (Morwell).
Debate adjourned until later this day.

The amp's & preamps look so good with wood, that I'm surprised 90% of them I see for sale are naked.
I wonder what percentage of overall sales were without a wood case?
Does the case have a negative effect on the units by holding heat in?
Were salesmen instructed to push customers one way or another?
I've searched all over the forum & can't find good wood even mentioned?
Are there drawings on here somewhere so I can build some?
Thanks, Brad

High flying pupils attended a workshop at school focused on Higher Level Apprenticeships.
The Careers Guidance and Support Services provided the Year 8 and Year 9 High Flyers with an interactive workshop on Higher level Apprenticeships. The workshop complimented previous sessions about university opportunities allowing pupils sufficient information to make appropriate informed choices to suit them.
Higher Apprenticeships involve a combination of learning on-the-job, working alongside experienced colleagues, with off-the-job training at a college, training provider or university.
Mrs Clare Hunt, Assistant Headteacher at Saint Paul's, said: "A Higher Apprenticeship is similar to other Apprenticeships; it gives young people the chance to build up practical work experience while progressing academically up to a higher level, all whilst being paid a decent salary. Higher Apprenticeships offer a different route to traditional university study."
Mrs Hunt added: "A Higher Apprenticeship can lead to further academic qualifications such as an Honours Degree or professional industry specific qualifications - for example, engineers can take the first steps towards gaining chartered status."
"We have a wealth of talent at Saint Paul's and it is important to show our pupils all the opportunities available to them," said Miss Tina Wilkinson, Deputy Headteacher.

So I rarely ask for favors, but this one is pretty important to me. My birthday's coming up. What comes to your mind when you think of birthdays? Cake. Presents. Friends. Family parties. Silly hats. Candles in the shapes of numbers. Maybe for some: dread, another year of 29, or perhaps, you forget it's your birthday. Yeah, I've talked to someone who forgot his own birthday. It just so happens he has the same birthday as I do! But we are polar opposites, because I start looking forward to my birthday like six months in advance.
But I digress. The point is birthdays are supposed to be fun. They are way to celebrate the fact that you made it through another year on this cool place we like to call planet Earth. I read a book a few months ago called The Perks of Being a Wallflower (You may have seen a post I wrote about it in the past). The main character talks about how he thinks he should give his mom a present every year for bringing him into this world instead of getting presents.
So for my birthday I have an idea of what I would like—which is always the hardest part for me. My challenge for you is to do a random act of kindness every day until February 17th. I'm not saying it has to stop there, and if you get the same feeling I do out of it, it won't. But remember: it doesn't have to be something big.
Just make a conscious effort every day between now and then to do something nice for someone else. Ideally, these people would be acquaintances or even strangers you encounter on your daily routine. But doing things for friends and family is amazing as well.
And one more thing: if on February 17th I saw comments about what you guys did to make other people's days (anonymous or otherwise) it just might make my day. J
(My first act: I made a poster for my younger step-sister wishing her luck for her solo in her choir concert tonight.)
- Make someone in your house breakfast. (Even pouring someone in a rush a bowl of cereal can be helpful)
- Open the door for someone.
- Smile.
- Offer to help carry something.
- Compliment people. (They'll eat it up! And you just might get one back.)
- Be observant. (Some people just want to be noticed or want people to notice something specifically).
- Pick up something someone dropped.
- Offer to run an errand for someone.
- Help your parents cook dinner.
- Do the laundry.

Pro Wrestling Fit is a South Korean wrestling group that fights anywhere, be it in a gym, club, or even a busy city street. One of South Korea's only wrestling organizations, they take on stage names to exaggerate their characters' personas. Some members even don costumes to further play on their theatrical identities. To promote themselves, the troupe showcases their backyard wrestling style at unorthodox venues. This particular event took place during an underground rock show dubbed, "an unholy unity of music and wrestling." Between the opening act and the headlining band, the PWF wrestlers were introduced and then immediately started sparring. To the delight of the audience, they quickly took their fight out of the club and into the street. Enticed by its offbeat and overtly masculine nature, the audience couldn't help but chase after and marvel at this aggressive spectacle.
I'm an emerging photographer currently based in Seoul, South Korea. As a Korean-American who grew up in a rural area of Virginia, I have a unique perspective of Korean identity and its relationship to both global and regional communities. In 2016, I mentored under David Alan Harvey to further study photographic philosophy and authorship. My work has been awarded by the Magnum Photography Awards, Sony World Photography Awards, LensCulture, PDN, IPOTY, IPA, MIFA, TIFA, as well as selected for inclusion at the 2017 Aperture Summer Open: On Freedom.

Charles Watts (secularist)
|Charles Watts
27 February 1836
Bristol, England
16 February 1906 (aged 70)
|Writer, lecturer, publisher
|Charles Albert Watts (son)
Charles Watts (27 February 1836–16 February 1906) was an English writer, lecturer and publisher, who was prominent in the secularist and freethought movements in both Britain and Canada.
Life and career[edit]
He was born in Bristol into a family of Methodists, and showed precocious talents, giving his first lecture at the age of 14. At the age of 16 he moved to London, and worked with his elder brother John Watts (1834-1866) in a printing office. Through this work the two brothers came into contact with freethinkers including Charles Southwell and Charles Bradlaugh. John Watts became an active proselytiser for secularism, and in 1863 was appointed editor of the National Reformer, a radical periodical founded by Bradlaugh, with Charles as assistant editor. In 1864 the brothers formed a publishing business, Watts & Co.[1][2]
John Watts died from tuberculosis at the age of 32.[1] Charles Watts took charge of the publishing business and toured the country, delivering hundreds of lectures on theological, social, and political issues. He declared himself an atheist and, with Bradlaugh and others, helped found the National Secular Society (NSS) in 1866. In 1876, he was appointed full-time editor and publisher of the National Reformer. He also wrote and published a wide range of pamphlets on secularism and republicanism, and wrote the first systematic history of freethought, eventually published in book form as Freethought: its Rise, Progress and Triumph. His wife, Kate Eunice Watts, often travelled with him and also wrote pamphlets, including The Education and Position of Woman and Christianity: Defective and Unnecessary.[1][2]
In 1877 Charles Watts broke with Bradlaugh over the pamphlet The Fruits of Philosophy, which had been written by American physician and atheist Charles Knowlton, and which promoted birth control and discussed human sexuality.[3] The pamphlet was published for the first time in Britain by Watts' publishing company, with an introduction by Bradlaugh and Annie Besant, and Watts, Bradlaugh and Besant were prosecuted under the Obscene Publications Act. Watts dissociated himself from Bradlaugh and pleaded guilty, claiming that he had not read the document.[4] He was released, resigned from the NSS, and, with George Holyoake and George Foote, formed the British Secular Union, a short-lived rival group. Watts became editor of the Secular Review founded by Holyoake.[1][2][5]
In 1882, he travelled for the first time to the United States to lecture, and also visited Canada, where he was invited to take up residence. He emigrated to Toronto in 1883, leaving his son Charles Albert Watts in charge of his publishing interests in Britain. Charles Watts then became the leader of the secularist movement in Canada, founding and editing Secular Thought in Toronto, and also regularly went on lecture tours of the US.[2] He returned in 1891 to England, where his son had by then established the periodical Watts's Literary Guide (the forerunner of the New Humanist magazine) to promote secularist activities. Charles Watts rejoined the NSS and continued lecturing, as well as cooperating with Foote on the journal, The Freethinker. He returned to the US and Canada, with Foote, to lecture in 1896, and again visited the US in 1899.[2][5]
He died in England in 1906 at the age of 70. His son, Charles Albert Watts, remained active in the secularist movement, helping to develop the Rationalist Press Association.

It seems that the Liberal Government disagree.

To save Gonski both state and federal governments need to work together to make sure the Turnbull plan is rejected.

There is a quick and easy way to check which Domain Controller your windows PC is authenticated to via the command line.
Click Start and enter CMD (Windows Vista/7/2008) or Start --> Run --> CMD (Windows XP/2003)
When the CMD window opens, enter the following and hit enter:
echo %logonserver%
The logon server will be displayed.
I would just use this command.. Less typing:
C:\> set L
@BMoore - thank you! There seem to be a few ways to skin this cat.
Very useful command for troubleshooting authentication issues on a domain. Thanks!
So here is my question...how can the computer potentially authenticate with a different DC each time? And why are there multiple? (Sorry, just getting more into the server side of things, getting away from the support desk side of things).
If you have more than one DC in your environment, a system could authenticate to either/any of them. If you are experiencing issues with GPOs not synchronizing or applying correctly, it can be beneficial to know which DC you have authenticated to.
You would have multiple DCs for redundancy. If there is not a domain controller available, users cannot authenticate to the domain. Multiple DCs allows for one to be offline and still handle authentication. When multiple are online, they handle their own "load balancing" to defer authentication requests when one is too busy.
er, sorry folks but this is WRONG.
The %logonserver% environment variable shows the DC which authenticated the *user* - not the computer. To see which DC authenticated the computer, run this command:
nltest /DSGETDC:
(make sure you include that : at the end)

"Rosie & Bear Around the Year Quilt Book" - Review
Submitted by Pam on Thu, 09/27/2012 - 22:14
Rosie & Bear Around the Year Quilt Book was inspired by memories of a little girl growing up in the English countryside with her ever-present companion Bear. Her mother loved the little girl very, very much; and now that the little girl is all grown up and has left home for college, her mother, Helen Dickson, has created an heirloom quilt intending to preserve and cherish the memories she holds dear.
And in her newly self-published book, Helen is sharing all her original embroidery patterns and everything else anyone could possibly need to know to make one just like it!
When Diane was about 6, I decided to re-create 16 of her drawings in embroidery and make a quilt. I embroidered one block and gave up. I will always regret that decision. So I am especially happy to see that Helen followed through and completed her tribute to her daughter's childhood.
Even if you are inspired to use your own embroidery designs, the book provides instruction for a quilt that will beautifully showcase your work and your memories.
A quick peak at the Table of Contents! Helen covers everything - from how much fabric you need to purchase to how to make a label!
I have already marked up my own copy with blue highlighter - so many little tricks I did not know: wrapping an embroidery hoop, selecting the proper hand quilting needle, "fluffing" your thread to give it more body and coverage.
(All this time - I thought the thicker the quilt the bigger the needle needed! It is no wonder I always had to hand quilt using a sledge hammer!)
Helen provides a great tutorial for testing seam allowances! Brilliant.
And believe me, my seam allowances ALWAYS need testing! Wish I had this book in my hands BEFORE I pieced together the Solstice block!
(But at least I have it before I begin the hand quilting - I won't need the sledge hammer!)
And notice the diagram on the right for assembling the quilt top - Helen provides diagrams and illustrations wherever they are needed to clarify a step or technique.
All twelve blocks are given individual sections that include an image of the finished block, color numbers of embroidery threads used, notes and tips.
(You will find some very good tips indeed in the "Tips of the Month" section with each block - that is where I learned to "fluff" my thread!)
Also included in each block section - the pattern at full size in both the original and reverse version to accommodate various methods of pattern transfer, and a stitch and floss guide in full color.
Rosie & Bear with the Christmas Tree is my favorite - big surprise!! I love the shape of the tree and the brightly burning candles. The sweet little Rosie hugging her Bear.
Actually, I purchased the pattern from Helen's Bustle and Sew shop last year before she incorporated it into the book.
I've made this much progress! I hope to complete it this year - but with all the other projects I have going on at the moment, that is in doubt. But certainly during the Twelve Days of Christmas! Which is when I try to finish any Christmas project leftovers!
I will be framing mine in a hoop. For those of us who prefer to make individual blocks, Helen has provided the material requirements for single blocks at the beginning of each section.
Rosie & Bear Around the Year Quilt book is available here and if you are in the UK - here. You can read more about it and peak inside on Helen's Bustle and Sew site here.
And don't forget to stop by Helen's shop where she offers patterns for her sweet embroideries and charming soft toys, quilted projects, bags, buntings and Bustle and Sew E-magazine.
She just announced the opening of her CHRISTMAS SHOP at Bustle and Sew! Check out the advent calendars!!! It's time to get started making!

In this clinical summary, Dr. Douglas Lanska of the Great Lakes VA Healthcare System at the VA Medical Center in Tomah, Wisconsin, explains the clinical presentation, pathophysiology, diagnostic workup, and management of visual hallucinations in blindness. Bonnet syndrome (sometimes referred to as Charles Bonnet syndrome) is now most commonly considered to refer to visual hallucinations in visually impaired individuals with full alertness, unimpaired cognition, and no psychosis. Although Bonnet syndrome is most commonly identified in patients with bilaterally decreased central visual acuity, similar phenomena also occur in patients with retrochiasmal visual field defects. Bonnet hallucinations are thought to result from a "release" mechanism associated with modality-specific sensory deprivation, ie, "phantom vision" akin to phantom limbs in patients with loss of somatosensory input after an amputation. Although there is no definitive treatment available for Bonnet syndrome, various ophthalmologic interventions, behavioral strategies, and pharmacologic agents have been used to try to reduce or relieve symptoms.

I was a late bloomer to this running craziness. One of my coworkers would always talk to me about running in the hopes that I would get into it. Nope. I was not interested because I could not run even one mile.
I began running in the summer of 2005. I remember walking along the lakefront and I saw this older man running and I told myself "Well, if he can do it, so can I". I immediately signed up with CARA for their Beginner's Program. The goal was to run for 30 minutes. I only made it to about 29 minutes. Still, it was an accomplishment for me.
My first race was a 5K in November. I finished in 39:48. Not the best time but I was happy for it being my first race ever. The rest is history. To date I've completed many races with various distances from a 5K to an ultramarathon. In 2012, I completed my first relay race (Ragnar Relay Chicago). I had a blast!
I am also a second grade teacher. Prior to teaching I was a marketing manager for a nonprofit organization. Every day brings smiles from my kids. Throughout the day they learn something from me but I learn much more from them.
I run because I can. I run because I enjoy that feeling of accomplishment whether it is a short or long run. I run because it is my "me" time.

Hi all I am complete novice to the world of re breathers. I have been diving for years and want to progress onto a rebreather as I feel it will open more doors to me, probably working out cheaper in the long run!
I am due a mid life crisis and the wife has said yes to buying one, options were divorce, sell the kids or motorbike. The problem is which rebreather so many options with so many similar stats.
Liberty - really like all I have read but it has no CO2 sensor, is this a major problem?
Other units I'm looking at are the, JJ, X CCR, and AP.
I want something robust, proven with easy support and servicing in the UK and with access to instructors.
Thank you

In 20000 BC, before the first history was recorded in writings, there had been already among people the legends and mythology about the origin of Viet nation from HUNG VUONG. These are stories on HONG BANG dynasty, offspring of dragon and fairy, bag of hundred eggs, eighteen kings of Hung Vuong dynasty, Son Tinh - Thuy Tinh's conflict, Thanh Giong's victory over An foreign aggressors, folk of betel and areca nuts, "banh chung banh day", watermelon ..... All these legends together can be regarded as a folk history. These historic legends were firstly collected and compiled by the contemporary authors' view. The two symbolic works of this aspect were Viet Dien U Linh by Ly Te Xuyen with a foreword in 1329, and Linh Nam Trich Quai by Tran The Phap in around end of Tran (1226), then edited by Vu Quynh and Kieu Phu in Le era (1428) with prologue in 1492-1493. According to one of the numerous legends concerning the origin of their state, a Vietnamese prince named LAC LONG QUAN came to Northern Viet Nam from his home in the sea. He married a princess from the mountain, AUCO, who is also described as the wife of a Northern Intruder (Chinese?), on the top of Mount Tan Vien, sometimes around 2800 BC Instead of the commonplace results of a union, the princess laid 100 eggs - when they hatched, a son emerged from each of them. Afterward, the parents separated because he was dragon from the sea, she was lady fair from the mountain. Therefore, the mother led half the progeny across the northern mountains, and became the ancestors of the Muong. While the remaining fifty followed the father to the sea and became ancestors of the Vietnamese. The most valiant of the sons was chosen to be the first of the eighteen HUNG VUONG kings. Lac Long Quan, a prince of the sea, and Au Co, a princess of the mountains, are regarded by the Vietnamese as their primal ancestors. Chu Nguyen

Golden Turtle Competition
I stumbled upon a couple of photos online that show I was a finalist in the Golden Turtle exhibition that was held in Moscow from late July 2014. Although I was told I would receive a printed brochure with all the finalist's work included, I have never received one, and their website is quite hard to navigate since it's in Russian. I was lucky that a couple of random guys happened to be standing in front of my turtle drawing when their photo was taken!

Close-ups - Laura
Here are close-ups of each drawing. I first did a sketch on paper to decide roughly what Laura would look like. From there I scanned this into the computer and drew over the sketch in Illustrator, tweaking certain elements and perfecting the drawing as I went. I scanned patterned paper and fabric for her outfits, and these are also what I used for the background in each frame above.
Something a bit different
These are six illustrations I created for a cookbook for Penguin Group (NZ) which didn't make it into the book. I have always been fond of these illustrations as they are so far removed from my usually very tight, realistic drawing style. Until I drew these, I never knew I could successfully create a much simpler, cartoony style. I decided to frame them using similar background fabrics that were used in the finished cookbook. I think they've come up great!

Your body needs proteins to repair and build muscles among other things. Therefore, to get maximum benefits out of your workouts and steroids you need to plan your diet very carefully. It should have plenty of proteins and carbohydrates. When you work out your body need lot of energy. Most people make the mistake that they do not use carbohydrates in the food they take before workout. It means that their body will use up glucose that their muscles need and they will not be able to get the maximum benefit.

This "Convict Leave Pass" was issued by Parramatta Lumberyard to Thomas Simms in 1843. The back of the pass describes Simms as a 48 year old, 5 foot, 6 inches tall, with 'dark ruddy and freckled' complexion. He had one glass eye, missing teeth and a scar on his forehead.
Thomas Simms arrived as a convict in the colony of new South Wales, from Lancashire in 1839. He was granted a "Ticket of Leave" enabling him to work and live independently within the District of Parramatta. He worked as a sawyer in the Parramatta Lumberyard and this "Convict Leave Pass" permitted him to leave the district for just one day visits to friends.
The colony of New South Wales (NSW) was established in 1788, when the First Fleet led by Captain Arthur Phillip founded the first British settlement in Australia as a penal colony. NSW was a colony of the British Empire from 1788 to 1901, when it became a State in the federal Commonwealth of Australia on 1 January 1901.
The ticket of leave system was first introduced in 1801. Its aim was to reduce the burden on the colonial government of providing food to the convicts. Convicts who were able to support themselves were awarded a ticket of leave, which permitted the holders to seek employment within a specified district, but not leave it without the permission of the government or the magistrate. The "Leave Pass" allowed the convict to leave the assigned district for a defined period.

These effects provide useful tools for improving the quality of your video footage and fixing common issues.
Clone stamp
The clone stamp is useful for duplicating or removing specific parts of a layer. Combined with HitFilm's feature tracking this is a very powerful feature.
A separate layer can be used as a clone mask, defining the area to clone. Using a simple plane is usually the easiest way to do this, as the plane can be easily resized and positioned if necessary.
The clone source can be from the applied layer or from another layer, as defined by the Clone From property.
The Source and Target positions can then be specified, or linked to other layers. This enables the cloning to be linked to points containing tracking data.
Grain removal
Basic grain removal.
Rolling shutter
Some capture methods used by video cameras produce an effect called rolling shutter. This is particularly common with DSLR cameras. Rolling shutter can be identified by a wobbling, jelly-like instability in the frame during rapid movement.
The rolling shutter effect is designed to counteract rolling shutter, correcting the video and minimizing the effects of rolling shutter.
Shutter direction is used to define whether the camera uses a vertical or horizontal shutter. Consult your camera's specifications for more information.
The correction property is used to specify the amount of time it takes for the camera's shutter to travel across the frame.
In the case of cameras using a vertical shutter, this is defined as the time it takes in frames to capture from the top row of the image to the bottom row.
Positive values indicates the vertical shutter is travelling from top to bottom, while negative values are for bottom to top. You should consult the specifications of your camera to find the correction value to use.
Shutter sync
This property determines which part of the rolling shutter frame should be used to fix the image.
|-0.5 will use the frame at the beginning of the vertical shutter capture, as defined by the correction property.
|0.0 will use the frame halfway through the vertical shutter capture. This is usually best as it will result in the minimum amount of distortion.
|0.5 will use the frame at the end of the vertical shutter capture, as defined by the correction property.
Optical flow
Rolling shutter works by tracking the movement of every pixel in the frame using optical flow techniques.
The View menu can be used to observe the accuracy of the optical flow track.
Different videos may require adjustments to the optical flow properties. Adjusting the Window size and Sigma properties tend to yield the best results.
