Tata Motors today unveiled their two production ready models named the Zest and the Bolt. While the Zest is a compact sedan, the Bolt is the company's latest hatchback. Not completely new cars though, Tata Motors has made a lot of changes which make these cars appealing and takes the quality a notch higher.
Tata Motors says that the cars will go on sale in the second half of this year, so we expect a launch somewhere close to Diwali.
The cars - Zest, a compact sedan, and Bolt hatchback, will be powered by the company's new Revotron series of petrol engines. Both the cars are based on the company's enhanced X1 platform, on which the existing Vista and Manza models are built. The company has no plans to stop the production of the Vista and the Indigo CS, even if there is a possibility of cannibalization with these two new products.
Tata Motors is currently focusing on getting the volumes up and with these cars hopes to see a spike in that sales figure. "These cars have been engineered for global markets, through global teams across India, the UK and Korea to set new standards in their respective segments," said Tata Motors President Passenger Vehicles, Ranjt Yadav.
Both the new cars are a result of collaborative design inputs from the three Tata Motors design studios in Pune, Coventry (UK) and Turin (Italy).
The Zest will be made available in both the petrol and the diesel avataars, while the Bolt will be powered by the new Revotron petrol engine. The cars will be produced at the companys Pune plant.
Both the cars come feature packed and with EPAS (Electronic Power Assisted System) which is a move over from the hydraulic assisted ones used in earlier models. The infotainment system on both cars is touch screen based with a voice assist system and even the infotainment system is powered by Harman. A new feature on the Zest is the 5-speed automated manual transmission that will be used on the diesel model, a segment first.
Tata Motors is certainly turning a new leaf and with it is transforming not only their products but is making the competitors aware that they are not behind when it comes to a feature-packed car. It indeed is HorizonNext for Tatas this year and the company promises to launch a new product every year.

News: Hung Season 3 To Premiere in October
HBO has finally released a trailer for Season 3 of Hung, starring Thomas Jane. Check it out above. It is typically raunchy and suggestive, but features no new footage. And "ready for more"? Could HBO be any more vague? Anyway, it's something, and at least there's some information about when it will premiere; sometime in October, according to HBO in this recent tweet.
Hopefully, Australian viewers will be able to see this series fast-tracked on to Seven's digital channel 7mate- I feel saying it would be a perfect fit would be too lowbrow.

Uno, dos...
We've been in Oregon over Riggs' last two birthdays and for this one I was sure we weren't going to do anything. I figured this time he may want a party with his little buddies in Florida. Well, as the big day approached, it became very clear that Riggs would be happy as pie if he could celebrate his birthday with all his cousins, grandparents, and aunts and uncles every year. Thus, the day before, literally, we started throwing together a party. I hate to be cliche, but the kid is into super heros these days, so that's what we did. Maybe more of a "home-made" super hero theme, but super heros none the less.
Some good ol' window paint, some streamers and construction paper. Waalaa!
21 masks. Felt from Ilynn's craft room. Elastic from Ilynn's craft room. Cutting by Savannah.
21 capes. Fabric from Ilynn's craft room. Bias tape from Elna. Tracing, sewing, and cutting by Adge, Pammy, Savs, and Abs. All. Night. Long.
Cake from Albertson's. Cake toppers by Grandma Pammy.
You know when "they" "get it." Yeah, well, it was this birthday that "he" "got it." The presents, the cake, the presents, the games, the cake, the presents.
He (we) really are lucky. For the past 2 July's we've all been in Oregon, with a good chunk of other family members too. We don't get to celebrate many holidays or birthdays with family, so maybe that's why it always seems so good when we do! Riggs LOVES his family. They are his best friends. And I couldn't be happier with that. Here are all the super heros he got to celebrate with...I really wish we would have thought to take a picture of every one by themselves....ohhhh the coulda shoulda woulda....
This is a marvelous photo.
These were both such great pictures. Her just staring at Uncle Riley. Not many can pull that off.
And this photo. Oh, this photo. If I had to create a top 10 best photos of my lifetime, it's surely in the top of the top 10. I mean, it includes so much of our family and we're ALL wearing masks and capes. And posing. #awesomeness #lovemyfamily
Until birthday #4.

The rectum is the section of the digestive tract above the anus where the stools are retained before they exit the body through the anus. The anus is the opening at the end of the digestive tract where the stool leaves the body. Hemorrhoids occur when the veins of the inferior rectum or anus enlarge. Internal hemorrhoids are hemorrhoids that form above the junction between the anus and rectum anorectal junction.
However, there are some drawbacks to this procedure Hemorrhoid surgery is reserved for people who do not respond to more conservative therapies. The important factor to consider is the amount of problems caused by hemorrhoids. Occasionally, haemorrhoids that become large enough, or bleed a lot, will require surgery. Hemorrhoids are dilated and twisted veins varicose veins located in the wall of the rectum and lower anus. The inflated veins are caused by an increase in pressure.
To relieve constipation and as a way to get rid of hemorrhoids, drink at least one glass of water with each meal and snack of the day. Fermented foods such as kerif, kimchi and raw yogurt at pasture can help provide the digestive system with healthy bacteria that are essential for good elimination. Several studies have shown that fermented foods and probiotics improve the health of the intestinal tract, synthesize and improve the bioavailability of nutrients, modify the pH of the digestive tract and facilitate digestion.
A doctor can evaluate the symptoms of hemorrhoids to rule out other more serious problems. A number of conditions that affect the anus and the colon large intestine can cause bleeding, mucus drainage, eating and discomfort. Most people who have these symptoms think they have haemorrhoids, but often they do not. If hemorrhoids are present, the doctor will assess their location and size and develop a treatment plan based on the degree of hemorrhoids.
If your symptoms of haemorrhoids have started with a marked change in bowel habits or if you pass black, tarry or brown stools, blood clots or blood mixed with stool, immediately consult your doctor. These types of stool may signal more bleeding elsewhere in your digestive tract. Seek emergency care if you experience large amounts of rectal bleeding, dizziness, numbness, or fainting. The veins around the anus tend to stretch under pressure and can swell or swell.
Alcohol can be dehydrating and hard on the digestive system, thus aggravating the symptoms of hemorrhoids. And spicy foods can intensify the symptoms of hemorrhoids. Some studies show that the consumption of alcohol and spicy foods is a risk factor for hemorrhoids, even if the data are not consistent. To be safe, limit these foods until the haemorrhoids are gone. Deformation during a bowel movement can be painful and aggravate the problems of hemorrhoids.
Classification of hemorrhoids classified as internal and external hemorrhoids according to the location above or below the dentine line, respectively . The dentate line occurs where the anal epithelium meets the rectal epithelium. See illustration Hemorrhoids are diagnosed based on the presence of the typical signs and symptoms listed above.
Most people will have a hemorrhoid at some point in their lives. The symptoms of each person may vary. Some of the most common symptoms include Hemorrhoid symptoms may look like other health problems. Always see your health care provider to be safe. Having blood in your stool can also be a sign of other digestive disorders, such as colorectal cancer. It is important to consult your health professional for a complete examination.
Hemorrhoids help to control bowel movements. Hemorrhoids cause problems and can be considered abnormal or an illness only when the hemorrhoidal clumps of the vessels get bigger. Hemorrhoids occur all over the world, and about 75% of people will experience heightened hemorrhoids at some point. However, only about 4% will go to a doctor because of hemorrhoidal problems. Hemorrhoids that cause problems are also found in men and women, and their prevalence peaks between 45 and 65 years of age.
Hemorrhoids occur when the veins of the rectum or anus become inflamed because of too much force in the area. Learn more about thrombosed hemorrhoids and how they are different from regular hemorrhoids. Hemorrhoids are swollen veins that appear near the rectum. If you have a serious case that does not get with home treatment, think of one of them Having chronic constipation can be a sign of another underlying condition.
Thermal Coagulation - A source of light is used to cause a small burn on the surface of the hemorrhoid, causing it to stop bleeding and retrograde to the normal size. Hemorrhoid injection - A liquid is injected into the hemorrhoid, stopping the bleeding and preventing it from protruding. After any of these treatments, you may experience mild to moderate pain, a dull ache, or a feeling of urgency to bowel movement.
There are steps you can take at home to relieve hemorrhoidal symptoms Table 1. One of the most important steps in the treatment of hemorrhoids is to avoid constipation hard or uncomfortable stools. Hard stools can cause rectal bleeding and / or tearing of the anus, called anal fissure. In addition, pushing and forcing your bowels can aggravate existing haemorrhoids and increase the risk of developing new hemorrhoids.

OP015. Gut homing markers in perianal Crohn's fistulae
N.A. Yassin1, A. Askari1, Y.H. Siaw1, E. Mann2, D. Bernardo2, R.K.S. Phillips1, S. Knight2, H. Al-Hassi2, A.L. Hart1, 1St Mark's Hospital, and Academic Institute, London, United Kingdom, 2Imperial College London, Antigen Presentation Research Group, London, United Kingdom
Microbiological, genetic and immunological factors have been implicated in the aetiology of Crohn's disease (CD). The aetiology of perianal Crohn's fistulae remains unclear and the disease a challenge to treat. Dendritic cells are antigen presenting cells that play a role in the immunopathogenesis of CD and express tissue-specific homing markers. We have recently shown that the expression of gut homing markers (β7 integrin) on dendritic cells to be significantly higher in Crohn's compared with idiopathic fistulae. The β7 chain associates with the α4 subunit to form the α4 β7 integrin, but it also combines with the α E chain to form the α E β7 integrin. We aimed to determine specific β7 gut homing marker expression on dendritic cells from the fistula tracts of patients with perianal CD.
Fresh biopsies were taken from 35 Crohn's and 25 idiopathic fistula patients. Dendritic cells were identified as HLA-DR positive and lineage (CD3, CD14, CD16, CD19, CD34 and CD56) negative, and were characterized by flow cytometry. The expression of CLA and αE β7-integrin was tested in both groups. Additional biopsies were taken for the second study from 17 Crohn's anal fistula tracks. The expression of the gut homing markers (β7 integrin and α E β7) was tested.
The male to female ratio for the idiopathic group was 18:7, and 21:14 for the Crohn's group. Of the idiopathic group, 14% were smokers as compared with 18.4% of the Crohn's group. A diverting stoma was present in 15.8% of the Crohn's group at the time of taking biopsies as compared with 5% of the idiopathic group.
Percentage positive expression of β7 integrin on DC was significantly higher in Crohn's compared with idiopathic fistulae (p = 0.002). In the Crohn's subgroup, β 7-integrin (median 44, range 0–75) was significantly higher (p = 0.003) than α E β7 (median 4, range 0–65). This implies that the positive expression of β7 integrin in Crohn's is due to the α4 β7 molecule. Positive correlation was found between the duration of perianal disease and increased β7 levels (r = 0.473, p = 0.005). However, there was no correlation between all the other factors including the use of infliximab alone or in combination with thiopurines with β7 expression on DC.
Increased expression of β7 on dendritic cells of Crohn's perianal fistulae implies a dysregulated immune response which could be directing T-cells to the gut. Significantly more expression of the β7 integrin as compared with the α E β7 gut homing marker, implies this significance to be due to the α4 β7 antibody. Anti-α4 β7 therapies may aid healing when applied to perianal Crohn's fistulae.

This morning I did some more product photography except it didn't take place in a studio. It was a beautiful day outside, but a little too bright for me to take some decent photos. We found a shady spot against some bushes right near the Japanese Tea Garden. It was quite muddy there since it had rained a day or two ago; my memory fails me, once again. My flats got dirty, but oh well! It took an hour to get these two shots. Not too shabby!

An International Spinning Lesson
The Weavers Guild - despite it's name - has a whole room devoted to spinning. Since Betty and I bought new spinning wheels last weekend we decided that a clinic devoted to answering our spinning questions would be a good idea and the Weaver's Guild had one today! And as a bonus two of the students were weavers and spinners from Bolivia. Their son, Ali, came along as an interpreter but we did communicate some in the universal language of fiber! Severina told us through her son that she learned to spin on a drop spindle when she was 13 years old and to weave when she was 15. She would spin as she walked behind the Llamas and sheep on the road. She and Luis now live in the city but are interested in bringing back a spinning wheel and a drum carder because it would make their work so much faster. They are expert spinners but had never spun on a wheel before. They picked it up very fast! Going to the class today was kind of like traveling to Bolivia without having to travel. What fun!
I relearned from our excellent teacher, Nancy, how to Navajo ply and she also explained about worsted spinning. I tried combing with a flick carder - the object is to get perfectly aligned fibers and then when you spin them you get very lofty yarn. I might try that with the Coopworth fleece that I have. But I sure have a long way to go before I can say my spinning is anything like that of the experts that I saw today.

A Finished Hemlock
I started it on April 21 and finished it on May 28. I'm not usually that dedicated to a project but this one I just couldn't put down. In fact I needed to work on a summer sweater for a class that I taught but I was a bad teacher and didn't keep up with my students. They forgave me because they were interested in the Hemlock progress too. It turned out just as wonderful as I hoped but I admit that I had grave doubts when I took it off the needle and tried to spread it out and it just wanted to be a blob. I've heard others say that knitted lace doesn't look like anything (some rude comparisons have been made) before it's blocked but when it's your own blob of knitting it is kind of worrying. I wondered if I had put in all those hours for naught.
I soaked it in the tub in tepid water for about a half hour and then pinned it out severely on rubber mats (obtained from Sam's Club) and magic happened! I wish I had gotten a picture of the blob but I was so anxious to see if it would work that I just soaked it and pinned it and forgot. Here's the pinned out picture and the after it's all dry pictures. I used 7 grams less than 2 skeins of Cascade Eco Wool and knit it as big as the chart - 70 rows of the feather and fan pattern. Those rows got very long at the end. I used my scale and weighed the yarn before and after rows to estimate how far I would be able to knit. My object was to get the biggest afghan I could with the yarn I had. I used the crochet cast off because it was easier and used less yarn. The afghan measures 62 inches in diameter across the peaks and 52 across the valleys. I love it! It's such an addicting knit that I'm already planning my next one and have the yarn all ready.

Ann and Betty's Excellent Spinning Wheel Adventure
Monday was a holiday in the United States and my friend Betty had the day off. So did the Compadre but he wasn't interested in pursuing the elusive perfect spinning wheel. I had done some preliminary hunting at the Shepherd's Harvest Sheep and Wool Festival and also at - believe it or not - the sock knitting machine gathering a few weeks ago. Many of us fiber fanatics have multiple vices, I mean interests, and I discovered that a friend from the sock machine group had a spinning wheel for sale. I wasn't interested in a small traveling wheel but I mentioned it to Betty and she said it sounded promising. So after making arrangements to visit Detta on a holiday (she had had to cancel our previous appointment) we took off for the long trek to the best place to try out spinning wheels that I've ever been to. Detta knows about every wheel and has most of them to try. I had narrowed down my choices to the Majacraft Rose or the Lendrum. And Betty tried out the Lendrum, the Rose, and the Louet Victoria (one just like my friend had for sale). Betty liked the Victoria and I liked the Rose. I tried very hard to like the Lendrum because it would have been cheaper but the Rose was the one for me. After all I gave my oldest daughter the middle name of Rose, and both my grandmother and the Compadre's grandmother were named Rose. It was meant to be. So there is a very beautiful Rose spinning wheel in residence in my living room and I'm a happy spinner.
We left Detta's and called Sharon - the one with the Victoria for sale - and drove there so that Betty could be properly inducted into the spinning world too. It just happens that Sharon owns an alpaca farm and so we had to visit the lovely animals. The newest alpaca, Copper, was a very friendly boy. We had a chat - he said hmmm? hmmm? and I tried to talk back. I'm not sure that he understood me. Sharon's miniature Dachshund had puppies about a week and a half ago. So cute. Betty and I are not really dog people but it sure was tempting for each of us!
Betty tried out the spinning wheel and bought it and now she's been assimilated!
Tomorrow, finished Hemlock Ring pictures!!!

Bluegrass Saturday
I have eclectic music tastes, I like a lot of different kinds of music but I have to admit that when I married the Compadre his enjoyment of twangy country music was puzzling to me. I was more of a pop/rock kind of girl back then. Somehow bluegrass is different. Maybe it's the banjo - I don't know, but it is really fun. Some of the groups did do some classic country (read Hank Williams) music and I really enjoyed it! We'll have to go again. Oh, and it was my idea to go - the Compadre wasn't sure about going. Our oldest son John went with and all in all it was a great day.
I got a lot of knitting done on the Hemlock Ring. Those last rounds are so big! I thought that I would be done by now but I'm not quite yet. Maybe today - but I've been saying that for days now. Really, I only have 1 1/2 rounds plus the edge/bind off.
Here is a picture of our favorite band of the day - the Ditch Lilies. They were so good I bought their CD.
Tomorrow I'll tell you all about my spinning wheel adventure - stay tuned!

Some Family Recipes
Vegetable Beef Broth Soup (family recipe)
As dictated to me by Aunt Ann over the phone
Boil a beef soup bone (one with meat on it) in large pot – about 5-6 quarts. Cut up four stalks of celery, and 4-5 carrots into large chunks and add it to the pot. Add 1 -1 ½ tsp. whole peppercorns and 5 bay leaves.
After the soup has cooked for a little while add 2 big onions cut into 4-5 pieces and salt to taste – about 1 to 1 ½ tsp.
Towards the end of the time add 2 cans of diced tomatoes. Total cooking time is 2 to 2 ½ hours.
Then strain the solids from the broth with a colander. The cooked veggies and meat from the bone are fair game for anyone that wants them!
Serve with runny noodles or Cream of Wheat dumplings.
Runny Noodles
Beat 1 egg in a cup and add enough flour so it still slowly runs off of spoon but is thickened. When the soup is boiling hard let it slowly run off the spoon into the soup. Cook a few minutes more.
Cream of Wheat Dumplings
Beat 1 egg and add 1 T. water and 1 tsp. soft butter. Add cream of wheat slowly and stir until it forms the consistency of dumplings on a spoon. Drop the dumplings by teaspoonfuls into boiling soup and cook until done. It is tricky to get the consistency correct – too thick and they will not be cooked in the inside and too thin and they fall apart.
We've also enjoyed this soup with just loose Cream of Wheat in it. Just sprinkle it in the soup and cook for a few minutes. When I was a kid I added ketchup to the soup! Aunt Ann says that when she was little she was given the meat from the bone cut up with vinegar and oil on it. I've never tried that, it might be good - maybe some day.

A Spring Walk

Back for Lunch
So what have I been doing? I've been spending most of my knitting time on the Hemlock Ring Afghan. I decided that I should keep going beyond the standard size since I have so much yarn left. As far as I can tell from reading other peoples info about their Hemlock the standard size blocks out to about 48" around. I'd rather have a more substantial afghan and so I'm going to go as far as my yarn will let me. I weighed the yarn ball before and after row 57 and it took me 8 gms to knit that row. All 504 stitches of it. I roughly estimated that I should be able to knit up through row 70 and that I should get an afghan about 54 inches in diameter. We'll see how my estimating skills are! Here is what it looks like now.
I've ordered a whole cone!! of Jaggerspun Zephyr wool/silk laceweight yarn. I've got two shawls in my queue that I'm planning on making with it. The Orkney Pi shawl, and the Slow Bee shawl. (ravelry link) I'm not sure I'm in my right mind (am I ever?) considering that the cone has almost a mile of yarn on it! That's a lot of knitting. Of course I have several sweaters in progress, the Great American Aran Afghan, the Charlotte's Web Shawl, and I imagine several other unfinished objects. But why let that stop me. I have all the time in the world right. And more ideas and projects than can be completed in my lifetime. But I'm having fun and getting a lot done.
By the way my daughter Amy went to see the Yarn Harlot in Philadelphia and Abigail got her picture on her blog! She looks cute as always, and she's wearing a onsie that Amy made for her. And as long as I'm talking about Abigail I might as well show you what she looks like at her first ball game. Taken by Amy in Baltimore and the Yankees lost.

Too Much Good Cooking
So anyway, last week I made The Pioneer Woman's Apricot Oatmeal Bars twice – they were that good. I had two pot luck type of activities to bring them to so I just had to make them - I had to, I tell you. One of the ways I "improved" on her recipe is that I mixed it in the kitchen aid. Why mix by hand when the mixer will do it for you so much more easily and better too! It does work to do it by hand but you have to wait for the butter to really soften or you'll be working very hard! I also used peach preserves instead of apricot but that is minor. You could use any kind of jam, jelly or preserves you wanted. I happened to have peach on hand. I'm sorry but this is the only picture I took. They went fast, they were so good. Easy to make too.

Shepherd's Harvest
Saturday, I went with my friend Betty to Shepherd's Harvest and we had a wonderful time. I think that I've finally gotten to the point where I know that my stash is adequate and I really didn't buy all that much. (Compadre, I reserve the right to change my mind!) I did look at a lot of spinning wheels because I've decided that my Ashford Traditional is going to be replaced. I bought it used and it has a slightly warped wheel and it is frustrating to spin on. I will keep my Babe for a traveling wheel and so I'm looking for a nice, versatile, beautiful, easy to spin on wheel to use at home. I might have found it in the Majacraft Rose that I tried. A trip to Detta's Spindle is in my future. Detta has the best selection of wheels I've ever seen and she is a fount of knowledge about them. I'm sure that I'll find something that I like there. Oh, and I'm going to give my Ashford to my daughter Amy. I'm sure she'll be able to figure out how to fix it and make it work - after all she's an engineer!
Here is what I bought. The shuttle and book were from the Mielke's Farm booth and the pattern from the Earth Heart Designs booth. Betty and I did the rational thing and looked at everything first and then went back for the things that we remembered and still wanted. Remembering them was important - if you don't remember that you wanted something then you didn't really want it that badly did you!
And here's the animal photos. Cute lambs, lhama's, alpaca's. I didn't get the young man's name that posed with his animal but when we asked how much it would cost he asked his Dad and the answer was 300 - 600.
And get a load of this Merino sheep. He has so much wool it looks like he(or she) can't even move!
My birthday was on Mother's Day this year and so it made for a celebration packed day! I had fun and was treated with lot's of special love. My daughter Anita found a list of restaurants that give you something free on your birthday. We went to Romano's Macaroni Grill and had a wonderful meal and I shared my free piece of chocolate cake with everyone. Mmmmm.

Yeast Matters
So the recipe is available on the cooks illustrated website and I got it somehow without signing up for the "14 day free trial" but now I can't link to it directly. But Breadtopia has two excellent videos that tell you how to do it. It takes 3 cups of flour, 1/4 tsp of yeast, 1 1/2 tsp of salt, 7 oz. of water, 3 oz. of beer and 1 tablespoon of vinegar. I used a measuring cup and didn't weigh it and it worked just fine. Watch the videos for his step by step portrayal of the unusual method. I used my cast iron dutch oven and it worked very well. You have to have a dutch oven that can go in the oven - some have handles that can't take the high heat. Make sure you check yours out before trying this.
My bread looked like this last night. Today it's all gone! It's easy and fun to make. If you've got the equipment I recommend trying it. Good eating!

Maryland Sheep and Wool Guest Post
On Saturday I went to the Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival with my friend Jen and my daughter Abigail. I've never been to something like this before so it was pretty neat to see so many knitters in one place. I saw many knitted sweaters, shawls and socks etc. and people knitting while sitting in the shade or standing in line. It took an hour and a half to get there and half an hour to get into the parking lot.
First we looked at a lot of sheep. Abigail wasn't too fond of the sheep barns and she started fussing. She did stare down a sheep and won the staring contest. Later we found some alpaca. They were for sale, but I'd have to sell both our cars to pay for them. Jen asked if Eric could ride an alpaca to work.
There were lots and lots of fun booths. I was tempted by the buffalo yarn with cashmere and quivet. It was very soft and I could make a lace scarf. I was also tempted by some beautiful glass knitting needles. Both of these items would probably end up sitting looking pretty on a shelf, so instead I bought some sock yarn. Jen laughed at me as I waited in a very long line to buy Socks That Rock. I figured it must be good stuff if so many people wanted it. They were picked pretty bare when I checked back in the afternoon. I got some sock yarn from another booth too, but the yarn isn't labeled, I paid cash and I didn't get a business card so I can't tell you who sold it to me. It turns out I must like orange because all four sock yarns have orange in them.
I also bought a small print of a sheep painting "High Strung" by Conni Togel and a children's book for Abigail called Sheep Take a Hike by Nancy E. Shaw. I waited in another very long line to buy a gyro until Jen came back with a gyro from another booth. People behind me were wondering where she got it so fast.
There was a group of people sitting with antique sock knitting machines knitting socks. They had one there with a long tube that you could knit on. It would be great to own a sock knitting machine like my Mom does, but sometimes the fun part of knitting socks is the time spent with the lovely yarn.
In all, Maryland Sheep and Wool Festival was a lot of fun and I hope Mom can come with me next year.

Hemlock Happiness
I'm loving this project! It's lace knitting but with big yarn and big needles and I can see what I'm doing. And now that I'm on the feather and fan part there are 4 rows of mindless knitting in between the pattern rows. I can't wait until it's done and I can block it. Right now it looks kind of blob like but blocking is the magic. Hemlock Ring Afghan in Cascade Ecological Wool. I'm doing it just like the pattern - no modifications! I'm planning on making it as big as the two skeins of yarn allow me to. Happy knitting!

The definition of imperialism is "A policy of extending a country's power and influence through colonisation, use of military force, or other means." The USA has operated imperialistic policies since it was founded and continues to do so today. However, they still manage to do so without being heavily condemned, as most people have accepted the role of the US in the world and see no way to change it. As described by Lenin in his 1917 book, imperialism is the highest stage of capitalism, and he refers to how capitalist states utilise imperialist colonialism to ensure greater profits. Of course, America is a staunchly capitalist country, especially since the era of the "American dream", and to maximise and maintain their profits and power they expand their influence across the world, regardless of how that effects people in the countries they interfere with.
A good example of the bully tactics of the US is their meddling in the DPRK and the way that through revisionism and outrageous media propaganda, they have painted the secular state as an evil dictatorship, and the average American will now believe pretty much anything they hear involving North Korea and their leader Kim Jong Un. The majority of the western population believe Jong Un is some sort of crazed dictator, however not as many know the complexity and democratic nature of the DPRK government, which is shown in the image below. Kim Jong Un is far from even being the most influential and powerful person in the country, he is a member of the National Defence Commission. The revisionism and lies allow the US to excuse their actions as they needlessly advance warships on the DPRK and meddle with their politics. Regardless of the ongoings inside the country, what gives America the right to interfere and impose their rule on other countries? It is imperialistic to its core – America tries to paint itself as a global peacekeeper whereas, in reality, it has run riot across the world, destroying homes and taking lives for the sake of power and profit. In the example of the DPRK, the intervention is completely undeserved as every military decision the DPRK makes is in self-defence. They have never bombed, attacked, invaded or colonised another country. Could anyone really complain if they decided to take action against America? At some point, retaliation will be necessary otherwise the US will continue to impose its murderous rule across the globe. Whether that comes from inside revolution or foreign intervention, something must be done to prevent US imperialism.
Recently, attention has been drawn towards the situation in Venezuela. Once again, America is constantly interfering and worsening tensions between the socialist government and supporters, and the opposition. Nicolas Maduro, president of Venezuela was an elected candidate despite cries of "dictator" from the west. He has brought the country forwards in many ways including healthcare, education and civil rights. Under his administration, Venezuela expanded its free health care coverage to more than 60 percent of the population, according to the country's Ministry of People's Power for Health. The Venezuelan president has also made free health care available to people in historically impoverished departments like Amazonas, Bolivar and Delta Amacuro. Public housing for all Venezuelans has also been a priority of Maduro's term. Last January, he announced that his government reached its goal of1,400,000 homes provided to Venezuelans across the country.
However, the country is currently in a state of emergency and there are shortages of food, high tension and countless monetary issues. Of course, the US have warned of a response to the instability in the country. The declaration of Venezuela as a "threat to U.S. national security" passed by the Obama Administration continues to be in effect, and the US are backing the violent right-wing opposition, who are routinely blocking roads, violently protesting and possess far right extremists in their ranks. The leftist government are supported by most of the workers, on the contrary to what the US would lead you to believe, and many of the food shortages are coming from food hoarding, by businesses intending to push up prices and maximise profits. The US are particularly scared of success in Latin America where the majority of the governments are revolutionary and socialist. Once again, this situation shows that US intervention and imperialism is never beneficial, and US pressure on Venezuela since the days of Hugo Chavez has driven the country into a state of despair, trying to topple the leftist government and working with fascists amongst the opposition parties. The Bolivarian leader also blamed U.S. President Donald Trump for instigating recent violent events in the country, saying, "Trump wants to take political control of Venezuela … enough of imperialist aggression." No matter who is in charge of the USA, it is a force which spreads poverty and strife all over the world, just to uphold its imperialist power.
One of the clearest cases of blatant imperialism currently happening is the US intervention and calculated manipulation of the situation in Syria. Every senator and politician in the USA who speaks out on the crisis calls for the need to topple "dictator" Bashar Assad. Assad is an elected leader who has successfully governed his country for many years, and it is a travesty that America think they can impose their rule on Syria, and actively oppose a popular leader. They have managed to convince the population of their country that Assad is the force of terror, who is attacking the Syrian people. Why would he attack his own people in a war that he is winning? Despite the fact that Britain and the USA constantly discuss ISIS and the need to crush Islamic terror, by bombing Syrian people and working with the "rebels", America and Britain actively support Al Qaeda fighters, and by making the Syrian people more vulnerable they allow ISIS a freer rule to capture, invade and dictate as they please. The way the US are acting in Syria mirrors their actions in Libya when they illegally murdered colonel Gaddafi and got away with it by painting him as a dictator.
One country who managed to overcome US imperialism is Cuba. Cuba came under the domination of U.S. imperialism as a result of the Spanish-American War of 1898. The Cubans had been fighting for their independence from Spain, but the U.S. seized on the situation to turn Cuba into a neo-colony. Cuba then relied heavily on trade with the US to maintain its economy. Despite a US trade embargo in later years due to the Cuban revolution, the socialist state flourished under the leadership of Fidel Castro, and Cuban healthcare and education are up there with the best in the world, which is impressive for such a small economy. The people of Cuba live comfortable but modest lives, and any struggle in the country comes from US sanctions, punishing the people of Cuba for no reason apart from having a progressive socialist government. The CIA attempted to assassinate Fidel Castro over 600 times, but the sheer determination of the Cuban revolutionaries helped them overcome the US. Before his death, Castro showed solidarity with other anti-imperialist states across the world, including Venezuela and the DPRK. It is important as western citizens to acknowledge and support these states in their struggle against the superpower that is the US, because the less support these states get, the easier it is for the US to get away with operating their murderous and foreign policy.
When on the topic of the foreign policies of USA and Britain, it is essential to do your own research and delve deeper into the actual issues and causes of unrest across the world, and not accept the narrative of the media, because the mainstream media will almost always paint a picture which suits the government and hides the truth. In general, people in our comfortable countries feel too detached to people in the rest of the world to truly care about their issues, so it's easier to accept what were told by our media. In my opinion, we owe it to the rest of the world to challenge our governments and hold them accountable for how they operate their foreign policy, and I urge anyone to take a greater interest in world affairs and remember to question everything. Only then will questions start to be raised, action will be taken and the struggles of vulnerable people will start to be recognised and acted upon.

Another dutch done
This was the wolverhampton 9,20 all selections matched, again dutching using reverse odds, max to win is £1.24 minimum is 0.10p
Riguez Dancer won :)
Not sure i could do this sort of thing on daily basis, but it seemed easier than trading in all honesty, again the odds of the favorite where low i may have another go when the odds are higher hoping to get more than a £1 odd, as there is always the danger of not being matched.

Hi Ron, when you say you used reverse odds, what do you mean? Is it just viewing the available odds as they really are, ie; the lay odds on BF are actually other peoples back bets? Hope I made that clear...ReplyDelete
Hi Paul.ReplyDelete
Hmm reverse odds if the odds on offer are 4.2 back and 4.4 lay then the reverse odds will place a back odds of 4.4 rather than taking up the 4,2 on offer, i believe bet-angel has this option i have watched a bet-angel video showing peter doing just that to trade.
i was goig to post up a video of Bet-ie doing it from thier site, but for some reason the site is down as is BET-IE itself so cannot log on, yet racing traders is fine, i hope they have'nt gone bump.
Aye, that's what I meant, only expressed a lot better. Cheers Ronnie!ReplyDelete

Margaret Roberts once said a weed is a plant waiting to be discovered. Nettle, a once upon a time stay-away weed is now a medicinal plant, high in antioxidants, has anti inflammatory properties and is used to spice soups and food. The stinging nettle compliments the cheese with a hint of spinach and garlic. We mix it with white cheddar, mature it between 6 to 8 weeks, pack it in small 200 g blocks and sell it ready to eat. You can enjoy it on a cheese platter, in a fresh garden salad or just add to cream spinach to give it that creamy taste.
Wine Pairing Suggestions
Serve with a rich, creamy Chardonnay or Viognier.

Phone Sex: Gloryholes, what are they?
Let's start out with the definition to make sure we are all on the same page.
Gloryholes are holes in walls of video booths at porn shops or even bathroom stalls of frequented gay rest stops (typically) where a man goes in one side (the giver) and waits for another man to stick his dick through the hole (the receiver). At that moment, the giver (i.e.: giver of BJ) can decide to either suck it or put his ass up against it and have sex.
**BE SAFE!! Use a condom with any BJ or anal sex with a stranger!**
So, you've decided to suck some dick? And you figure a gloryhole is the best bet to find one. You're probably right. Depending on where you live, you can go to most porn shops that have video booths and find a gloryhole.
Gloryholes are the best for anonymity. You're on one side of a wall and they are on the other. You have no idea who is on the other side unless you can identify them by their dick (which if you can, that's a whole other issue!)
So now that you've decided you want to go to a gloryhole, how do you find one? There is a website out there (amazingly enough) that caters to just that. It's called www.gloryholelist.com (this site was active at the writing of this article).
Gloryholelist.com lists out gloryholes in every state. It doesn't just have porn shops, but has frequented gay rest stops, cruising spots, sex clubs, gay bars and other places best known to find dick. It even has a spot for want ads.
Let's say you have found a porn shop that has a movie theater in the back and you know it is frequented by guys who either want to suck dick or want to have their dicks sucked. So what's next? How do you initiate it?
Go into the porn shop and hang out for a few minutes, see if it's busy, you don't want to be sitting in a booth all day waiting for dick. A lot of time you'll see other people doing the same thing. They'll be perusing the video section and every once in awhile take a look around. They are probably waiting to see who might go into the back room.
Once you see a few people in the place, head to the back. Go into a booth and wait. At this point, you can do one of two things. When you hear someone in the booth next to you, you can stick your finger through the hole, signaling that you want them to stick their dick in it; or you can leave the booth door or curtain open slightly. This lets people know that you are in there and not watching a movie, and therefore are waiting for something else.
Once a guy puts his dick through the hole, slip on a condom and do what you know you're good at! Have fun and be safe!

nothing super cool happened this week so i'm gonna fill the email with a few less cool stories.
the zone leaders gave us a reference of a guy (sergio) they had talked to in their area when this transfer started, about 4 weeks ago. we looked for him and couldnt find him, but he saw the zone leaders a few more times and kept asking that we visit him. we made an effort but never found him. then on friday they called us and said alright you have to call him tomorrow at 10 in the morning and he's gonna explain where he lives. so i called him and we ended up finding him, and it was quite an interesting lesson. he's of jewish descent, was born in france, raised in argentina, and then moved to paraguay. he studied the torah thoroughly, studied with the Jehovah's Witnesses for a while (but doesnt like them cus they changed the bible) and currently considers himself adventist (not sure if i translated that correctly dont judge). but anyways 10 years ago or something he sat down in a park and found a book of mormon so he took it home. his favorite part is the guide to the study of the scriptures (basically a condensed bible dictionary + topical guide that replaces said resources in the spanish scriptures from the church) which he read from beginning to end various times. he fervently praised said guide saying it was the most complete and perfect and useful resource that he has found. he brought the book of mormon to a jewish rabbi and he said concerning the guide to the study of the scriptures that everything agreed with the old testament and was great. he said that there was evidence that somebody had left jerusalem in 600 BC but that there wasnt sufficient evidence to concretely say that it was Lehi and his family. sergio said he wants to go to church, but considers saturday the sabbath day so he has work on sundays but he's gonna talk to his boss to see if he can change his schedule. he's been to a lot of churches and likes the bible study and analysis they do but recognizes that they're all false, so he just needs to get work off on sundays and he'll come and likely get baptized.
the district leader also gave us a reference of a part member family that he was teaching but that now lives in our area. the dad is member, but his wife and kids no. the wife smokes but they all apparently want to get baptized (we havent taught them yet, just the information that we got) we have an appointment with them on tuesday so we'll see how it goes and hopefully be able to get a few more baptisms this transfer.
on sunday we went and talked to an old investigator in elder blacketts area and we were outside talking to them and then when we left an old slightly drunk guy sitting nearby said hi brother to us. we said hi back but its pretty normal that people say stuff like that (hola hermanos / hola elderes) to us so we didnt think much of it, but he called us over, said he wants to stop drinking and smoking and accepted a baptismal date, and basically everything else we told him too.
i know that this is the work of God and that there are people in every place that God is preparing to accept his gospel. there are people that every one of knows that are just waiting an invitation. we just gotta do our part and keep looking. like the brother of Jared prepared the stones so that God could touch them and make them give light, we have to do everything we can and then let God do the miracles.
Elder Woodfield

Her self-confidence and love of work proved to be more powerful than the discouraging force of the snowy weather and rugged
Himalaya range last month.
On July 23, Bayana Fazili, an Iranian Kurd, became the first Kurdish lady to climb Nun peak, 7,135 meters high- the highest peak in the part of the Himalayan range lying on the Indian side of the Line of Control in
. Jammu and Kashmir
Baya Fzili, 23, is the first Kurd to climb
Fazili first started climbing in 2000 with the Iranian mountains. The first mountain she went up was
Sablakh Mountains in the Kurdish region of . Fazili said that climbing Iran Himalaya was a dream dating back to the early years of her life.
She has been a member of Hawraz Climbers Group in her country since 2004.
Her dream to hike Himalaya was finally made possible with the opening of a race in
in 2009 for the Iranian climbers. The first winners were awarded to hike the highest range of the world. Tehran
Himalaya committee of Mountaineering and Sport Climbing Council of Tehran picked up 7 men and 6 women after a long selection process among 40 male and 20 female members," said Kaveh Kashefi, head of the Mountaineering and Sport Climbing Council of Tehran (KSCCT) in an interview published the MountainZone.ir.
"Out of 50 women, only four including me won the race," Fazili said.
"We are the first Iranian team to safely climb this mountain."
Of 13 Iranian hikers, only seven people managed to climb the mountain in 15-20 days.
"It was all snow. Very very cold. The temperature was minus 50-55 degree. We were forced to stay for two nights on the second camp," Fazili described how she had felt on the mountain.
Amid a warm welcome at home, she said she was "very proud to be the first Kurd" to hike
History of Iranian mountaineers' attempt in the Indian side of
Himalaya, goes back to 1990. Mohammad Davoudi was the first Iranian to get to the summit of White Needle (6600m) and Kun (7077) in 1990.

Today, the Baynes face yet another day in court. Although their current court case is scheduled for August 9-13th , they are asking for unsupervised visitation in their children's best interests. Once again lawyer Finn Jensen has prepared a copious rebuttal. This is a challenge to which good parents should never be subjected.Let's examine the preferred development of a case like this. First principle: When social workers remove a child from what appears to be apparent danger, that is only the beginning of the social workers' responsibilities. Then a thorough assessment must be conducted and written. Such a fact-finding process should be undertaken with an open mind. The social worker/investigator must probe for both positives and negatives, affirming and damaging facts. If social workers have committed themselves to working with people, this can only be accomplished by focusing upon strengths and favourable factors. Even when a life or family situation is bleak and unpromising initially, with some closer examination, the hopefulness and promise in a situation may become obvious. What should certainly not occur is the construction of an assessment with as much smear and tarnish as the investigator(s) can accumulate to support an early preconception.
Second principle: Assessing the cause of an injury is not to be regarded as a medical determination but rather a legal one. That has been the error in this case with the Baynes. Examination of the injured child in 2007 and consequent medical evidence was necessary and important and even compelling. However, it cannot be assumed within the purview of the medical examiner's qualifications to determine the cause and then that such testimony is regarded as expert testimony upon which social workers rest their case for child removal and in this case going so far as to propose to take away the children from the parents forever. This leads injustice inherent to the system built on the existing flawed Act. To build an accurate and trustworthy assessment the social worker must take into account both medical and social evidence. A thorough social profile will provide a responsible guide for the social worker to assess likelihood of deliberate injury. Of the many child injuries presented at hospitals each day, most are accidental. That means that an assumption of deliberate injury should never be automatic. Certainly, accidents can be attributed to carelessness by the caregiver yet this still does not adjudge the parent to be unfit to parent or a guaranteed risk to be careless a second time. In the Bayne case, the doctor made the assumption of non accidental injury albeit based upon accepted prescripts in her department of her hospital yet she made this diagnostic choice even when accidental injury was the parents' explanation and a valid alternative explanation as other experts later attested. While one can argue that the social workers are not to be faulted for accepting the doctor's report, had they done an unbiased and more scrupulous profiling they would have discovered contradictions with the diagnosis and with the assumption of non accidental injury.
Third Principle: Evidence in a well attested case should go before the court immediately. MCFD was responding adequately and correctly during the first few months of this case. However, as soon as the alternative and conflicting medical explanations appeared to explicate the baby's injuries this case was in doubt and should have been reconsidered. When the case already looked unwinnable or suspiciously lacking in evidence, MCFD should have reviewed the case. There was no abusive profile for either parent with which to take this awful case to court. At so many points MCFD decision makers should have stopped this and reassessed the case. Jensen himself told his MCFD client to give the boys back to the Baynes because MCFD had no case that it could win, yet here we are. MCFD rejected his advice. MCFD has been seeking to justify its ponderous insensitivity by forging ahead rather than being impeccably professional. For the MCFD a good case doesn't need to be delayed for one year, two years, almost three years. Yet this one has been so delayed. When a case is clear and without question, there is every reason to get the evidence before the court as soon as possible. It should be a concern to us all, to the judge, to the Director, to the Minister and Deputy Minister of MCFD that the CBC story which aired on its website revealed that the MCFD had not followed the time lines required by its own governing ACT (Child, Family and Community Services Act). Jensen tried to dance around this in court.

On 29 May, the Heriot-Watt Semantic Web Lab hosted the sixth Scottish Linked Data Interest Group workshop (SLiDinG6), sponsored by the SICSA Data Science theme. There were 30 attendees from academia, government, and industry.
The main focus of the day was to share interests and knowledge around Semantic Web and Linked Data research and use across Scotland, with a view to fostering collaboration and interaction. We asked all attendees to fill out a well-sorted form two weeks prior to the event. Well Sorted allows attendees of events to put in titles and short descriptions of their interests. Once these are all received, attendees group them according to their own view of how they interact. The Well Sorted algorithm then takes all sortings and creates themed groups. Attendees were allowed to submit up to two responses. We received 17 responses, which were sorted into three groups as shown in the figure below. The full well-sorted results can be found here.
The full schedule for the day can be found on the event webpage. We began with lightning talks – 17 in total – to give attendees a feel for the breadth and focus of interest across the group. After lunch we had the first group session, based on the well-sorted groups. All attendees could see the topics in each group and attend whichever they felt suited them best. The groups discussed the first three questions outlined on the event webpage, with a focus on their interests within their particular group:
- What are the killer apps of the Semantic Web?
- What are the challenges from industry and government?
- Where are the synergies in Semantic Web research in Scotland?
Feedback was given by each group before the coffee break, and on this basis some attendees moved between groups.
After the coffee break, group discussions continued, with more focus on using the outcome of the earlier session to discuss the fourth question:
- Can we identify projects to push forward for funding?
At the end of the day, we summarised across the meeting what had come out of these groups, and various potential avenues which could be developed further were identified.
We discussed when we would like to hold the next event and agreed that holding SLiDInG events more often would be preferable. We agreed that the next one would be held around Easter next year (10 months away), possibly in conjunction with the UK Ontology Network Meeting, venue to be confirmed.
Throughout the day attendees were encouraged to contribute to the live blog of the meeting, which can be found here. This gives a much more thorough overview of the discussion of the day.
We are very grateful to SICSA for the support, which enabled this useful event to take place.

Some time ago I neede to create some diploma with watermark elemets. I puzzled how to do this a long time, and found solution finally, its not so hard. Now I wanna to share my experience with community.
Illustrator CS2 has powerful feature called Blend Tool, and Ive used it.
For beginning, lets create some vector object, for example star.
We will put a circle inside it. Then we will select both object, choose Blend Tool and click at the circle and star vertex. As a result we will get something like following, depending on previous settings:
Will change settings to following values:
When objects are large, we need more steps. Now we can change outline color, opacity to get more satisfactory results. Lets expiriment! Here is several examples of what I got using Blend Tool:
I think, this trick will be helpful for you one day.

HOlA GUYS!
I cannot believe that another general conferance has passed by! Its hard to say if I have a favorite talk because there were so many good ones. Two of them that really stood out to me, was Elder Hollands talk, and the talk given by Elder Richardsen. Both of them talked alot about topics that relate really well with missionaries. Elder Hollands talk was mainly focused on the future missionaries but i was able to learn alot about what kind of missionaries the lord expects us to be. I just love his talks becuase he is so direct and clear about things. He talked about how there are only two sides in life, the side of the devil and the side of god. If we are afraid to open our mouths to talk with someone, than that means that we are letting the side of satan take over. It is really brutal, but it is absoluty true, we are either obedient, or disobedient, there is no grey area. I liked the anology he used about the lines that are drawn in sporting events, and how we can not play out of bounds when we are on gods team.
Elder Richardson explained really really well, the role that the holy ghost has in the conversion. This is something that I have been trying to develop more in these past months. In the MTC one of the main focuses they teach to the missionaries now is to teach people not lessons. ç
This week we set 3 more baptismal dates! we set the date for the 23 of october. This is a family that we found in the Area book that was tought almost 2 years ago. On their teaching record it said that they were not positive at all and that is why the missionaries left them. 2 years later we found them again, and they are very prepared by god. Our first lesson we were prompted to talk about the anology in alma 32 about the how faith is like a little seed, and they really were able to relate to that. We felt the spirit very strongly on friday when we tought them about the plan of salvation and they understood everything perfectly and they accepted the invitation to be baptized.
This week we spent alot of time getting our investigadors ready for conferance. We were able to help one of our families get some shirts and ties and dresses to wear. THey were all very excited to go but, for various reasons they could not. There was car problems, sickness, job opportunities, and etc.. Satan really did not want them to go to general conferance and he succeeded. But in the long run satan will always lose so me and my companion arent discouraged.
Love ,
Elder West

Today is the time for hubby and son's haircut again. We already have this planned couple of weeks ago. I decided to have their haircut before my son and i will fly back home. Daddy and son has both long hairs now and they need to have some chops. Hubby and son looks like they live in a forest that has never been tidy for a long time. So they definitely needs haircut. And besides, i don't want my son to get irritated when we get to Philippines because for sure he will feel uncomfortable there for the first day just like what happened last year.
He was really irritated and cranky because the weather is too hot for him. So it is better to have his hair chop here before we leave so it will be more comfortable for him to have a very short hair. I am thinking that i might just tell the barber to give him a buzz, means that he is going to have a very short hair so his scalp can breath better back home. In that kind of haircut he will be more looking so fresh and won't be so irritated.Anyway, i will just post his photo later when we get home after the haircut gets done.

Daily Berry Patch Devotions in 2014 - Day 325
Devotional Song: Go to this link … Please take the time to take in Michael W Smith leading a large audience in the singing of the classic hymnTurn Your Eyes Upon Jesus. … reminding us how focusing on Christ is the antidote to the modern era of information which has a tendency to distract us from what is really important
Highlight Passage - NKJV Matthew 13: 22 … Jesus' warning about the interference of the world …
22 Now he who received seed among the thorns is he who hears the word, and the cares of this world and the deceitfulness of riches choke the word, and he becomes unfruitful.
Highlight Context #1 - Matthew 13: 1-23 [NKJV] … USE THIS LINK … Oh how we need to pay attention to the parable of the sower in today's tech world, which creates so many distractions to our seeing Christ in our lives
Reference Passage #1 … Isaiah 26: 3 [NKJV] … The Prophet for God shows believers where our attention should be focused for us to have peace in our lives …
3 You will keep him in perfect peace, whose mind is stayed on You because he trusts in You.
Reference Passage #2 … Matthew 6: 33 [NKJV] … Jesus on what is REALLY important !!!
33 But seek first the kingdom of God and His righteousness, and all these things [i.e., the needs of life] shall be added to you.
Reference Passage #3 … Romans 12: 2 [NKJV] … Paul exhorting believers to beware of the distortions of the world which cloud our thinking …
2 And do not be conformed to this world, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, that you may prove what is that good and acceptable and perfect will of God.
My Journal for Today: Today's Our Daily Bread devotional entry, authored by David McCasland, reminded me of something I see more and more in our techno-world, and something which is very disturbing to me. You've probably seen it (see the attached photo). Several teens will be in the same space, in close proximity to one another; and they are not even looking at one another; and they certainly are not conversing verbally with one another. You've seen it, haven't you? And where is the attention of these young people? On their smart phones; and who knows, … a couple of them may even be texting one another and they are only a few feet away. Wow! Scary stuff, isn't it?
Jesus warned His followers about how our common Spiritual foe would use the clamor and clutter of this world to choke out our human relationships, and even more importantly, our relationship with God.
The ODB entry for today points to Jesus telling His followers the parable of the sower [in Matthew 13]; and this parable must've been really important to Jesus because it's one of the only parables where the Lord explained its meaning and had the explanation documented in Scripture. And in the highlight verse (i.e., Matthew 13: 22) Jesus tells His disciples (and that's you and me too!) that we need to beware of how the clutter of this world can take our focus off of what's really important. And can I get a witness here as to what - or whom - that is? … Fill in the blank …. ____________ … I'm betting you got it right!!!
But in case (doubtful!!) you're wanting confirmation, go to the reference Scriptures above and meditate on them; and you'll have your answer; … and I'm praying today that all of us are focusing our minds, hearts, and spirits on the One - and only - focus which really will produce peace in our lives … And that is, of course, … ___________ … you got it!
My Prayer for Today … It's You, Lord; and may this time, where I come here quietly each morning, help me avoid the clamor of the world so that I can keep my focus on YOU. Amen
Blogger Note: Everyday during this year, my daily devotional blogs are influenced by the reading and study of the online devotional blog entitled Our Daily Bread, distributed online via email by RBC Ministries. If you GO TO THIS LINK on the date of my blog, you can read/study the ODB blogs; or you can subscribe to the blog via email at that site.

By all means, disagree with Sugar Sammy's sense of humour. Criticize the politics that feed his comedy. But using the bodies of abused women as a trope for the French language isn't funny or particularly clever.
Celine Cooper: A backlash against Sugar Sammy
Quebec's language politics dish out such an endless source of entertainment value, it's hard not to laugh sometimes. But every so often, it crosses a line from funny to offensive.
Case in point: Last week, Montreal comedian Sugar Sammy was the target of a political cartoon published on the satire site La Pravda. The top of the image features a quote attributed to him from a recent interview he gave to the Journal de Montréal: "La langue française est surprotégée au Québec." (The French language is overprotected in Quebec.) Below is a picture of a menacing-looking Sugar Sammy wearing a suit and kicking a woman. The woman is face down on the concrete. Her legs and arms are bruised and battered. She is shoeless, wearing nothing but a short blue dress. Across her back are the words "Langue Française." Sugar Sammy says to her "Tiens! Un bon coup de pied au cul, ça va te remettre à ta place!" (Here! A swift kick to the a– will put you in your place!).
I gather the idea we're supposed to take away is that Sugar Sammy gets his kicks from abusing the French language. OK. But the French language symbolized as an abused white woman, face down on the cement? How exactly are we supposed to interpret this visual?
Does this one cross the line? I think so. In no small part because this cartoon appeared a few days before the 25th anniversary of the Dec. 6 Montreal Massacre, when Marc Lépine gunned down 14 women at the École Polytechnique in 1989.
By all means, disagree with Sugar Sammy's sense of humour. Criticize the politics that feed his comedy. But using the bodies of abused women as a trope for the French language isn't funny or particularly clever.
Much of Sugar Sammy's comedy — certainly the stuff he performs here — riffs on Quebec's linguistic politics. He is intentionally provocative. He was most recently in the headlines for his latest ad campaign that featured an English-only message: "For Christmas, I'd like a complaint from the Office de la langue française." Within days, he got his wish. Soon, strips of black tape were pasted over the English words and the message was changed to read: "Pour Noël, j'ai eu une plainte de l'Office de la langue française" — For Christmas, I got a complaint from the Office de la langue française. Agree with him or not, it had everyone talking. It was a marketing coup for both Sugar Sammy and Sid Lee, the Montreal-based advertising agency responsible for the campaign.
But not only was Sugar Sammy the target of the La Pravda cartoon, he was the target of an unspecified threat that was reportedly called in from a pay phone to the box office of Université de Sherbrooke's Salle Maurice-O'Bready, where he was getting ready to perform last week. Security was ramped up, and the show went on as planned. I don't know about you, but I don't find this funny.
Sugar Sammy recently gave an interview and said: "Comedians are the anthropologists of our society … [t]here are many tensions in Quebec. For me, it's important to talk about them." I think this gets to the core of the issue; Sugar Sammy talks about these tensions. The conversations his comedy sparks aren't always easy ones to have. As the son of Indian immigrants, born and raised in Montreal, fluent in French, English, Punjabi and Hindi, he is well placed to comment on aspects of Quebec society that not everyone feels they can. Like it or not, his comedy is relevant because it forces us to have public conversations about the politics of language and society here, which are by turns salient and absurd and contradictory. Sometimes, of course, they're just really funny.

My mum and I took a sunny trip out to Chepstow racecourse on Sunday. Every week they host a car boot sale and a market. The market was much more substantial than the booty (a pitiful 7 cars!). But there was one lady with a table of treasure.
My mum bought some pretty linen from her, and I bought a set of 10 small glass bowls and one matching daddy bowl.

Thank you Tony. I would love to see your goddess bead!ReplyDelete
I don't know if you have ever seen my line of tiles. It gets confusing sometimes, because people think they are beads or will be beads, but they are tiles. I have some new ones I am working on lately, I am excited about them.
I love your goddess tiles and your goddess beads - in fact the goddess necklaces in my store are two of my most popular items:ReplyDelete
