Manufacturer: FX Airguns
Free Ground Shipping to Lower 48!
The FX Monsoon is the ultimate in semi-automatic airguns! The fast firing, semi-automatic system uses the wasted air behind the pellet to cycle the bolt and index the magazine. FX incorporated their 12-shot magazine to provide the maximum amount of fun! While the noise from the blast of air is reduced by the self-cycling action, the full sized barrel shroud reduces the muzzle report down further to a near "whisper". Keeping with traditional lines, the Monsoon uses a standard air cylinder which holds 200 bar of pressure. The cocking bolt handle has a locking rear detent slot which enables the rifle to be safely loaded and refilled without any risk of misfire. The FX Monsoon has a disabling safety catch on the left side of the action which prevents the rifle from firing. The FX Monsoon delivers 28-30 ft/lbs of consistent energy in .22 caliber (18 ft/lbs in .177) with seemingly no felt recoil, and the repeating mechanism is smooth and positive. The rifle has a 36 shot per charge capacity in .22 (48 shots in .177) which makes it fun to shoot yet highly effective for hunting applications. The 12-shot magazine (16-shot in .177) and semi-automatic action makes for extremely fast follow-up shots in the field. The FX Monsoon combines rapid fire excitement with traditional lines and practical application. FX adds to their legacy and continues to impress with the semi-automatic Monsoon.

George Wyndham and Sofia Tamper, starring in The Inheritance, by Ally Bunbury
"Infidelity … as comical and corrupt as an American Soap opera."
Evening Echo
The Inheritance is "likely to be very popular with readers of Jilly Cooper's comfort literature" says The Phoenix magazine
Photograph by
Rachael Comiskey Photography
"This is the perfect indulgence read."
Sue Leonard
"Anna's quirky, yoga-loving mother and her ruddy-faced father are entertaining and memorable, their country house a warm and welcoming escape from the madness of public relations... with threads linking the London party scene, Anglo-Irish family life and a sprawling Scottish estate … there are private jets and Porsches pitted against old money and family tradition. The elite are up to their usual tricks, with sex, booze and back-stabbing aplenty. (George) Wyndham's Scottish estate has passed down through 12 generations, and someone is waiting in the wings to claim their part of it ... ... more Jilly Cooper than Kate Morton …"
"The Inheritance is pure, unadulterated escapism."
Jessie Cahalin, Books in my Handbag blog

Wow this was a rather nasty article to write, especially just after lunch time. Prior to researching, I had always considered high-heels to be the cherry on top of a sophisticated and elegant awards ceremony outfit. Now I see them for the EVIL that they are – causing nasty sounding conditions such as bunions, haglunds deformity, calluses, hammertoe, and shrinking Achilles tendons. Don't take my word for it through, here is our list of the worst celebrity feet which have been cruelly deformed by stardom.
1. Kim Kardashian
Yeah, yeah she is pregnant and her feet are swollen and thats not her fault blah blah blah. She decided to put her massively elephant sized feet into these little transparent plastic mouse shoes though – that IS her fault. We suspect that Kim has several thousand mirrors in every single one of her hundred houses, and she surely could have looked in the mirror before leaving the house.
2. Posh Spice
Famous for pushing fashion to the extreme, it looks like years of killer heels have left Victoria with permanently dis-formed feet. She claims that she hates ballet flats with a passion, and yet despite crippling shooting pains from her bunions, she refuses to make the change. She puts up with the pain but doctors have told her that she will need a bunionectomy or to ditch the heels for at least a couple of months to allow the swelling to subside. We wonder which she will choose?
3. Katie Holmes
Katie has been a staff favorite since her days as Joey in Dawson Creek. By all account she seems to be a great mother and we also admire her dancing and singing skills. Sadly though, the years of dancing and high heels have taken their toll on her feet with misaligned toes and bunions on both feet. Luckily for her, she is over 5'9" and can easily afford to give the heels a rest. She does face a problem with this though, she has enormous size 10.5US feet, and its going to look a tad odd, but frankly its better than letting your feet get even more misshapen by heels.
4. Iman
Iman as a model originally from Somalia, she is married to David Bowie so is also Rock Aristocracy. She has had an amazing modelling career and now spends her time with her kids and running not just a global ethical make up company, but also many philanthropic endeavors related to children and ending conflict mineral trading. Sadly the years of wearing ill fitting bad formed shoes on the runway have left her feet in a tangled mess – if these results were advertised alongside the heels, I doubt anyone would still be wearing them.
5. Penelope Cruz
Although Penelope suffers from the usual celebrity bunions and and slightly misaligned toes which are garnered by countless red-carpet and publicity events, we chose this picture as its one of the few times we have seen the star leave the house without a pedicure and she is sporting particularly nasty looking yellow nails. This type of discoloration is usually due to a fungal infection, however in rare-cases can indicate much more serious conditions such as thyroid disease, diabetes, or lung disease. Keep an eye on your toes people, they can tell you a lot about your health.
6. Kate Moss
Kate is a good example of why you should never use your feet to smoke – just look what happens! In all seriousness though, this is once again a shining example of the price models pay for their craft, placing designer shoes above support and fit. Kate is luckier than most, she has a foot double for when she needs to show her trotters in advertisements. Her foot double Gemma Howorth recommends the Pilates method to keep her feet in international fame levels of health.
7 Angelina Jolie
We admire Angelina, not just for her brave handling of cancer, her help to fellow sufferers, or her global humanitarian efforts – we like the fact that she ignores annoying little Internet sites that poke fun at the smallest little flaws she has. The internet abounds with stories about her massive 'jacked' feet and these seem to have started from a barefoot Loius Vuitton ad in 2011. To anyone who makes fun of her – we ask – what do you look like in the morning…… Angelina Jolies feet.
8. Michelle Yeoh
Michelle is a Malaysian / Chinese actress best know for performing death defying stunts in her films. You will most likely know her from Crouching Tiger Hidden Dragon, and the James Bond film Tomorrow Never Dies. She has been in more than 30 movies and is an international superstar. This hasn't saved her from some of the worst bunions we have seen in this article, nor from strange internet foot doctors reaching out to her – seriously check the google results, its quite bizarre.
9. Oprah Winfrey
So we saved the best/worst for last – Opera has just about every possible problem with her feet, hammer toes, bunions, and even an extra toe. She could easily get this sorted with minimally invasive foot surgery, and clearly can afford an entire hospital of the world best podiatrists, but it seems that she simply doesn't care. We just wonder if they were always this way, as Oprah doesn't seem the type to wear ridiculous shoes – somehow we doubt she will answer our question on this!

Holiday Wrap Recap + Giveaway!
A few weekends ago Design Roots teamed up with My Paper Pinwheel + Paper Source for a Holiday Wrap Event at Paper Source's Plano location, and boy did we have fun! Attendees traveled from all over to participate in an evening filled with wrapping tips and tricks, easy and fun DIY crafts, sweet treats from Sugar Rays Bakeshop and some pretty great giveaways! We broke the event up into three stations, and our amazing photographer Ryan O'Dowd did a great job snapping pics of everyone getting their craft on. Keep scrolling to check out all the fun and to find out how you can win some swag!
First up was Thuy from My Paper Pinwheel who showed everyone how to snazz up a plain muslin bag with paint, glitter and stamps - just in time for the holiday gifting season! Thuy also brought a mini yarn tassel craft to share, perfect for placing atop holiday packages or stringing together to create a garland! Not only did Thuy bring some great crafts for everyone to make, she was the girl behind the giveaway - each of our attendees received an amazing swag bag {that you can enter to win!} and other fun and creative gifts were raffled off throughout the evening.
Next up was the gift wrapping station taught by Ashley, the amazing manager of Paper Source's Plano location and gift wrapper extraordinaire! Ashley taught everyone how to perfectly wrap their holiday gifts with no seams and clean corners, and of course she demonstrated how to tie the perfect bow! {if you missed out on this gift wrapping how-to, Paper Source offers classes as well as a year round wrap service!}
Finally our attendees headed over to my station where we learned how to create our own gift wrap using plain kraft brown paper and embellishments like stamps, pens and glitter. The repetition of a single design across the page made for some good looking gift wrap, and of course I threw in a DIY tag with some stamping and heat embossing! {and don't forget, we have tags and stamps in our Holiday Shop!}
The evening was a huge success, and wouldn't have been possible without our amazing teachers, the great location, some fantastic swag sponsors and, of course, everyone who came out and participated. If you missed out on our wrap event - don't fret! We saved a swag bag for one lucky follower, for your chance to win it follow Thuy on Instagram @mypaperpinwheel and follow the instructions on her post! {as you can see below, this is one giveaway you won't want to miss!}

I'm not quite sure about how many of us actually love the summer season in Pakistan, however I am still grateful for living in a country that has the sun out and blazing for the most part of the year – having said that, the heat can be a real bitch when it comes to skin care, beauty and makeup in general.
Be it protecting your skin from sunburn or protecting that hair color you spent a few thousand on, summer can feel like a constant beauty challenge. Luckily for you girls, we have rounded up some amazing beauty and makeup hacks that will guarantee you a fuss-free summer season, be it rain or shine.
1. Bye-bye Foundation!
The mere mention of foundation sounds so heavy in this blazing heat! You want to look fresh, radiant and well hydrated especially when it's 40 degrees outside. The solution? BB and CC creams of course! Tinted moisturizers are also a smart choice. Replace your foundation with one of your favourite creams and use a highlighter for that enviable summer glow! Just make sure you are using products with SPF and if you're fighting acne just ix a bit of benzoyl peroxide with your cream – Coverage and acne prevention, check.
2. Dry Shampoo
We adore and worship dry shampoo for a plethora of reasons. It is a girl's best friend all year round – but during the summers, it is actually wiser to apply your dry shampoo and tweak your hair at night rather than in the morning. In this way, you are allowing the shampoo to work on your roots and absorb oil and sweat throughout the night. By giving it extra time to work its magic on your hair, you improve the result many folds. Wake up to beautiful oil-free locks in the morning!
3. Aloe Vera Cubes
Wait, what?! Yes you heard us right! As much as we try to avoid getting roasted by the sun, there are just some days when you can't avoid the wrath of those rays. What is the easiest way to soothe burned skin you ask? Chilled aloe vera. Fill up an ice cube tray with aloe vera gel and pop it in your freezer. When you need to soothe your skin, just take a cube or two and enjoy the extra relief. The results are instant and awesome.
4. Bandelettes
Let's get real ladies. We all know and are victim to the fact that legs and thighs sweat like crazy in the summer. And when they sweat, sometimes they rub together and start chafing which results in very annoying and unsightly red marks – not to mention it hurts like crazy. Say farewell to bruising by trying the sexiest solution yet: bandelettes. Not only do they look gorgeous and sexy, they also serve the purpose of keeping your thighs smooth and comfy – like they are meant to be.
5. Eyebrows and Eyeshades
Nothing is quite as disastrous as your eyebrows melting off of your face during the summer days! Avoid this brow-less situation by using waterproof eyeshadow base or lid primer on your brows before filling them to perfection. This way the shape and color won't run off your face even when you sweat!
And please give powder eyeshadows a break. Hop on to the creamy shadow bandwagon this summer for that effortless cool look. At the same time, cream based shadows are said to hold color and texture for much longer on a hot day, compared to powder shadows.

University of Toledo Center for the Visual Arts
The Blade
Enlarge | Buy This Image
The University of Toledo's Center for the Visual Arts has closed an exhibition by local artist Leslie Adams after air conditioning issues continue to plague the center.
A conservation expert recommended that Handwritten Dreams be moved to a safer, climate-controlled environment, according to a news release sent from the university. The show transverses the importance of learning cursive handwriting through the writing of one's own dreams; and part of the show was the postings from more than 50,000 visitors at previous installation who were invited to write their own dreams on pieces of paper and post them at the exhibition.
Along with the closing of the show is the cancellation of Adams' artist talk that had been scheduled for Friday.
The show and talk were delayed once before, when the center, located next to the Toledo Museum of Art on Monroe Street, began experiencing the HVAC issues at the end of May. The university states in its release that it "is committed to working with Adams to find a time and venue to present the interactive exhibition in Toledo."
For more information on Adams' work, go to leslieadams.com.

The Defense Base Act: Allowing Civilian Government Contractors to Recover Compensation for their Injuries
Michael Ireland
The United States government has long engaged in the practice of hiring private companies and contractors to perform certain functions overseas on military bases. Since the early 2000s, our government has established a long-term military presence in places like Afghanistan and Iraq, often placing civilian contractors in dangerous situations. In addition, civilian contractors are hired in less dangerous areas such as Europe and the Far East to build U.S. government buildings, a task that can often result in serious injury. Fortunately for civilian contractors who are injured while working overseas or on a military base, federal legislation known as the Defense Base Act entitles them to benefits to cover their lost income as well as their medical expenses.
Who is Covered under the Defense Base Act?
The Defense Base Act covers the following classes of people:
● Individuals who are working for private companies on United States military bases or on lands outside the United States used for military purposes, including those in U.S. possessions and territories;
● People who work on public works projects with an United States agency, including service and construction contracts that are related to war or national defense activities outside of the United States;
● Individuals who are working on contracts that are funded and approved pursuant to the Foreign Assistance Act, generally providing for services to allies, military equipment, materials, provided that the contract is performed outside of the United States; and
● People who are working for American employers providing welfare or similar services for the benefit of the United States Armed Forces outside of the United States, such as the USO.
What Kinds of Benefits Does the Defense Base Act Provide?
The provisions of the act are similar in function to state workers' compensation programs in that every government contract that comes within the purview of the act requires that the contractor maintain insurance that will pay benefits to employees if they are injured. If an employee who is covered by the act is injured, he or she will receive disability and medical benefits if he or she is unable to work. The rate of compensation varies per situation including when the injury was sustained. This is just one of many reasons an injured worker should contact an attorney that is experienced in Defense Base Act claims. In cases of permanent disability, workers can receive benefits for life that are adjustable based on fluctuations in the annual cost of living. Under the act, injured workers are allowed to see the physician of his or her choice.
Contact a Chicago Defense Base Act Lawyer Today to Determine Whether You Have a Claim
If you have been injured while working overseas or on a United States military installation as a civilian contractor you may be entitled to significant financial compensation for your losses. The filing requirements regarding Defense Base Act claims are significantly different than those associated with a personal injury or workers' compensation claim, so victims should be certain to speak with an attorney familiar with representing individuals with these kinds of claims. To schedule a free consultation with an experienced Chicago defense base act attorney, call our office today at 800-535-4542.

re: Http to Https Redirect in Node VIEW POST
Nice writeup. Maybe I've missed something here (I'm good at doing that), but surely a more effective way of handling https is by using a web server like Nginx as a reverse proxy. Then the redirect is effectively a one-liner.
Certainly in production you'd want a more robust setup in order to scale to more than a single node process?

The literacy rate of Laos falls short of most of its Southeast Asian neighbours at just over 70% and is often even lower in rural areas where children must walk long distances to reach the nearest school. Other factors that add to the problem include poor-quality classrooms, limited teacher training and a dearth of appropriate reading materials.
To help combat the issue, the Luang Prabang Public Library, in tandem with Cooperative Learning International, aims to bring books into the hands of children through its Lao Children's Library Boats and Tuk-Tuk Library. Join the mobile library for an inspiring morning of visiting a village school with books, games and learning activities. See how hygiene is promoted through songs, stories and drama and help distribute a health bag containing soap, a toothbrush and other personal items or a learning bag with exercise books and pencils to the children.

Well that was predictably awkward. I didn't recognise Barb when she came to the door, I had to check her tag twice. She had her avatar on, as did I. Mine consists of untidying and darkening my hair a little, making my eyes a little bluer and covering up the skin-tags. I eliminate my wrinkles and lighten my skin too.
Hers though, was a complete overhaul. An hourglass figure instead of bell shaped, perfect complexion, perfect shading, dark purple hair and lips framing her perfect green eyes. Perfect is the only word I could think of to describe how she looked to me, especially her cleavage that seemed to invite you to dive in and take a swim.
She smiled sweetly and asked me in. Her house looked charming, decorated with an augmented reality theme that made it look like she had little paths running through each room between lush green little hillocks crowned with clusters of miniature trees, and with tiny sheep and deer frolicking about. Her husband slumped in a throne carved from a mini AR mountain.
He was shrouded in a long thick black hooded cloak. I wasn't sure if the cloak was real or AR until he turned his head dramatically, and the fabric flowed like it had a mind of it's own. Under the dark hood his shadowy face seemed human enough, though he'd made his eyes glow with red and yellow flashes, like they were burning.
He extended a hand that appeared to be clad in black metal, crafted to have several unnecessary sharp ridges, edges and points. He said, "Welcome to my home. I trust that you will be respectful." He had deepened the tone of his voice. I made my way over to shake his uncomfortable looking hand, and my foot hit something solid sticking a little into the path.
I couldn't see it because of the home image projected over everything, but something in the pile, of whatever it was under the pleasant green mound, shifted. I froze wondering if it would collapse, spilling what I assume was unreclaimed garbage all over. The smell of wet meadows and spring flowers masked any other smells that the N•Viron couldn't mask.
Desperate to avoid talking about what just happened I asked, "Where are the kids?" "Oh they're at their father's", replied Barb gratefully. It turns out that before she married the dark-shrouded banker sitting on his mountain, there was someone else. Kind, sweet and thoughtful. She thought he was the love of her life, and was pregnant with her second child when she found out he was cheating on her.
Her husband simply watched and nodded, as if he approved of the story. He had been the one that had told her about the infidelity, and was there to give her a shoulder to cry on. He had also given her and the kids a safe place to stay. The ex had become distraught and angry when she kicked him out. He was furious about it, continued to claim he'd never cheat on her. Barb said, "but I always knew he was too pretty for me".
The approving nods continue as Barb said, "I know he has a right to spend time with them, but I'm afraid he'll hurt them one day. He's just so angry all the time."
I don't know how she can't see how much he's controlling and manipulating her. He's hacked right into her personality, even choosing to look intimidating to enhance the effect. I think it looks laughable, but it clearly helps him feel like a big strong man. Despite this power over her there were instances when it seemed like Barb was deliberately trying to provoke him.
I got talking about where I was from and how much I miss it during the solstice. She said she'd love to go there, and said she'd run away with me if I ever chose to go back. "What?" I said, "and give up on the space adventure?" I say sarcastically. I'm beginning to hate the job, to be honest. "In a heartbeat!" she says. All right in front of her husband.
I don't remember his name, but I didn't want to ask because I should know it. Not even my N•Viron could tell me. His public tag was blank. He literally has no name. He didn't seem to care that his wife just said she wants to run away with another man. Either he didn't care, or he's so confident in himself that he gave no credit to the idea that she'd actually leave.
The food wasn't great. It wasn't horrible either. Standard fare, nothing special. We kept talking for a few hours after the meal. Barb did most of the talking. Her husband said nothing that I remember, trying to seem mysterious no doubt. He barely moved except to go to the bathroom, striding over hillocks like a giant.
I kept staring at Barb's chest as we talked. I made my excuses and left later than I should have. I still need to get some sleep before work. I have no idea what I'm going to say to her. Something in my guts is begging me not to go to work at all. I want to save her from the relationship, but who am I to say how she chooses to live her life?

text: Artists Chris Slater (left ) and Ken Horne at the launch of their 100 Portraits exhibition at the Old Factory. 172062-1 TWO ARTISTS have revealed a year's work as they opened their 100 Portraits exhibition to the public. Chris Slater and Ken Horne, both members of Rotherham Open Arts Renaissance (ROAR), painted 50 people each at a rate of one a week. They capture the faces of ordinary Rotherham folk and sometimes their pets. Asked why they went for 100 portraits, Chris said: "I just like the figure. "One portrait a week each, for one year, sounded like an interesting and manageable project to the artists." Ken said: "We wanted it to be long-term, but not last forever." They had no problem recruiting 100 people to sit for the portraits, spreading the word with posters and by mouth. But some of the subjects some friends and many strangers proved easier to paint than others. The most challenging one for me was when one bloke fetched his dog in, said Chris. "It didn't sit still long enough for us to tell what breed it was," he said. Ken added: "The person I had known longest, 60 years, I found the most difficult to do. "Perhaps I know him so well I can't just see him." The duo hoped to capture the towns most interesting faces, as their notices advertised. Ken said: "You look around at people walking on the streets and we look like weve lived a hard life. "That was where the focus on interesting faces came from." The exhibition at The Factory on Wortley Road — a new art space for the town — opened last weekend and is open from 10am and 3pm until Saturday.

This was passed on to me. You might wish to do the same:
"A group of 36,000 individuals - only 0.6% of the population - own 50% of rural land.
Their assets account for 20m out of Britain's 60m acres of land, and the researchers estimate that the vast majority is actually owned by a wealthy core of just 1,200 aristocrats and their relatives.
The top 10 individual biggest owners control a staggering total of more than a million acres between them."

// What was your life like prior to your CrossFit training and why did you want to start working with a coach?
Life prior to CrossFit was uneventful. I went to a regular gym, spent an hour doing something (what, specifically, I'm not sure,) and thought I was in good shape. I became interested in CrossFit after watching the Games on ESPN2. I thought "Sure! I can do that, why not!!" HA! I laugh a little now remembering how naive I was, or did I have CrossFit hubris? Anyway, I wanted to work with a coach because I did not feel I had enough strength in my legs. I could only squat about 135lbs, 10 times in a TRUE squat. Yep, it's true! I wanted to be comfortable squatting my body weight, followed by gaining strength for mountain biking and running, staying in shape and enjoying life.
// What have been your greatest challenges (physically, mentally, emotionally) since you began your CrossFit Training?
This will sound strange, but I had to come to terms with the fact that I cannot dance! Yea, I think I have two left feet which means I'm not very fluid or coordinated. It was a challenge to learn the proper form for the CrossFit movements. Kipping was hard, Muscle-Ups are hard, and walking on my hands still makes others laugh! But that's what kept me coming back, the challenge to overcome and the challenge to be better.
// What have been your greatest successes (physically,mentally or emotionally) since you began? How does your body feel now compared to when you started and WHY?
Like all who join CrossFit Julia, I feel stronger, more fit, ready to take on new challenges (physically or mentally). Most importantly, I feel challenged on a daily basis and I'm never bored with the workouts!
My greatest success just came a few weeks ago. Remember, I really couldn't squat my body weight. In a PT session with Shawn (which I recommend to EVERYONE for fine tuning, movement training or just a little extra motivation) I was able to hang clean and split jerk 225 pounds! Just getting that bar to my shoulders from the hang clean required a full front squat! Then the split jerk up and WHAM! I'm still totally amazed at that achievement.
// How has your life changed since starting CrossFit training? Has CrossFit transferred over into any other areas of your life?
Life has changed in a variety of ways. I'm more focused on what I eat (not quite true Paleo (sorry Julia) but not a lot of sweets and almost no dairy). I found out that I really, really, really, sorta like dry chicken!
I'm more confident to try a new physical activity I know what my body can do comfortably and, interestingly I'm still determining what the ceiling is for my body. It seems to still be a moving target and that is a great feeling! Knowing that what you thought was the ceiling six weeks ago is just another step forward!
I'm excited for this summer. I'll have to report back on how my CrossFit training has transferred over to other sports. I stay active with mountain biking, running, adventure racing, team sports (softball and football) and car racing. My assumption is that I will push harder and go faster for longer!
// What are the advantages of CrossFit style training compared to your previous workout styles?
It's night and day. With CrossFit I get a great workout in a 30 or 60 minute block of time. I'm more committed to attending because of the registration process and knowing I'll hear it from other CF members if I'm out too long.
// What are the advantages of working with a trainer one-on-one versus the group class setting?
Working with a trainer has been great. I've been able to really concentrate on my form and building strength, two things I was sorely lacking. The class is totally different. It's competition time. Time to turn what I've learned in the PT sessions into success on the chalk board, ok dry erase board, but chalk sounded better. I would strongly recommend a personal trainer if you feel there is anything you want to improve. Here is a quick list of what I worked on (foot stance, pulling the bar up instead of out, landing the bar on my shoulders instead of my wrists, gaining flexibility in my body, creating explosive jumps/presses/lifts by loading up my muscles via proper form, learning how to pace workouts, not being afraid of going to a low squat and dropping the weight, how to drop weight!, etc., etc., etc.)
// What advice can you give to others?
The same everyone has given me. Work hard, smile and embrace CrossFit. It's a journey and one that is best taken with a group of CF Friends sweat'in it out with you! Oh and to GO FASTER!

Two people watching me endlessly circling the velodrome yesterday said they had tears in their eyes as I approached the final minute....me, I was too dehydrated to have tears then but today, a young man wrote this to me and brought tears to my eyes:
"as with everything we attempt on our bikes, its not all
about the final result. Getting out there and giving it a
hard nudge is what its really all about. Results are good
but really it's all about the journey.
If we had amazing results every time it'd be pointless, no
Yoda would have something cool to say......"

(This tutorial was previously published in the book Gelli Plate Printing by Joan Bess, copyright 2014; republished here courtesy of North Light Books and CreateMixedMedia.com.)
Intaglio (pronounced in-TAL-ee-oh) prints are created from an etched plate that's been inked and wiped so that all that remains is the ink in the incised areas. An inked plate is covered with printing paper and put through a press, which pushes the paper into the grooves to transfer the ink, creating the print. The Gelli print adaptation is inspired by intaglio printing and does not use a press.
Materials list
- Gelli plate and brayer
- acrylic paint
- paper for printing
- styrofoam
- ballpoint pen
- duct tape
- scraper
1. Cut a styrofoam plate to size [6″ × 6″ (15cm × 15cm)]. Etch an interesting design with the tip of a ballpoint pen. Fold duct tape over the edges of the plate to give you an area for easy handling.
2. Apply a generous amount of paint to the plate and push it into the inscribed lines with a scraper.
3. Take a relief print of the foam plate to remove excess surface paint, then gently wipe the plate with clean scrap paper to remove any remaining paint from the relief surface. Be careful not to wipe off the paint in the inscribed lines.
4. Working quickly, flip the foam plate onto the Gelli plate, paint-side down. Roll a clean brayer over the back of the foam plate to transfer paint from the inscribed lines onto the Gelli plate.
5. Remove the foam plate before pulling the print. The final print will be right-reading. If you inscribe words, they'll appear in your print as they're written. These make great prints to work back into because the lines provide a framework for adding hand-coloring and collage.
6. Cover the Gelli plate with printing paper and pull the print. Styrofoam plates are quite durable, so your image can be printed again and again. Try printing an intaglio-inspired layer over a previous Gelli print to add the interesting design element of lines.
The original black line print is perfect for hand-coloring and collage embellishment. I used Distress Stains by Ranger and other watercolor paints to fill in the different sections. Additional marks were added with colored pencils, paint markers and rubber stamps. Paper collage elements were glued onto the print.
Since the original styrofoam inscribed plate can produce many prints, it's fun to create a series from the same line print, adding different colors, collage elements and if appropriate to the image, changing its orientation. In fact, the line print can be any color too! The possibilities are endless!

Progress on Water goals
Goal 4 covers the sustainable use of water resources. We have introduced one new objective for 2016-2020: Long-term equitable water access and usage.
Some additional context to our objectives and targets
As can be seen from the table, we are delighted that we have been able to deliver our 2020 water goal for Olam's plantations, concessions and farms 5 years early by reducing the amount of water used for irrigation from a 2013 baseline of 5,532m3/MT of product to 4,350m3/MT of product for 2015. We shall determine a revised 2020 target for our own irrigation during 2016.
While we have already hit our targets for 2015 and 2020 for our plantations, concessions and farms we have not achieved the 10% reduction in process water intensity in Olam Tier 1 factories from our 2013 baseline. We need to revisit and determine a revised 2020 target and improvement action plan following two significant changes:
- You can only manage what you measure so we undertook a programme to improve water metering across our Tier 1 processing and manufacturing sites. We now have a complete picture of our water consumption which shows we consume more than our baseline estimations showed in 2013
- During 2015 our US SVI business undertook a number of operational improvements and several procedural changes to further enhance the food safety requirements set by customers and the trade-off was a significant increase of water use in production.
