I used to work in further education in the UK and southern Africa, but when I became a mum 10 years ago all that came to a grinding halt. I wanted to work around my boys, so I started working in freelance journalism. Freelancing can sometimes be lonely so I approached the Evangelical Alliance offering to volunteer.
I've now been a
volunteer writer on their media team for over a year and really enjoy it. It teaches
me about how media works, gives me some new skills and also motivates me in my
freelancing as I hear about what Christians are doing globally.

We propose a 36-month project to conduct a QUAL/quan mixed methods study of nonmedical prescription stimulant users in San Francisco. We define """"""""nonmedical prescription stimulant use"""""""" as the use of prescription stimulants in a manner other than prescribed, including use for cognitive performance enhancement, recreational purposes, or to self-medicate for ADHD-type or other problems. Nonmedical use of prescription stimulants among college students has been well documented. To date, research studies ignore an entire population of non students who use nonmedical prescription stimulants as performance enhancers for work or recreation. What we do not know is how older adults use prescription stimulants nonmedically. Thus, we will conduct a QUAL/quan mixed method study of the experiences of nonmedical prescription stimulant users in three age cohorts. Using an adaptive intersectionality theoretical framework, we will conduct in-depth qualitative interviews with 150 participants. Fifty will be between 18 - 25 years of age, fifty 26 - 45 year olds who make up the first cohort (beginning in 1994) of recipients of ADHD medications, and fifty who are 46 and older. All participants will have used prescription stimulants nonmedically at least six times in the twelve months prior to interview. We will examine the types of prescription stimulants and the use of other prescription drugs and/or street drugs or alcohol to counter or enhance the effects of prescription stimulants. We will explore the intersection of individual factors, includig life stage and social location that contribute to decisions to use prescription stimulants nonmedically, motivations to use, knowledge about risks and benefits of prescription stimulant use, any adverse health or social consequences experienced, availability and diversion of prescription stimulants, differences in attitudes and behaviors relating to nonmedical prescription stimulant use and differences among the various age groups concerning all of the above. Findings will contribute to our understandings of users'experiences, including motivations to use, decision-making processes, perceptions of risk, health and social consequences of use, sources of prescription stimulants, and impact of age cohort on all of the above.
Overall nonmedical use of prescription medications, including stimulants by adults, is at its highest level in several decades and from our own and others'previous research in this area we know that prescription drug use is perceived to be less risky than using illicit street drugs. Nonmedical prescription stimulant users may not be aware of the dangers posed by stimulant use, including hyperpyrexia, tachycardia and cardiac lesions, all symptoms of amphetamine toxicity as well as sleep disorders, exacerbation of existing mental health conditions and increased risk for heart attack or stroke, especially in older adults with pre-existing heart conditions. Findings from this study will aid in the development of effective education, prevention, and treatment interventions for nonmedical prescription stimulant use through the identification of appropriate targets and the most effective pathways for prevention/intervention information delivery.

The Publications Committee consists of the Editor of Sociological Perspectives (ex officio), the Editor of The Pacific Sociologist (ex officio) and six members elected at large by the entire voting membership of the Association for a three year term of office. Each regional division of the PSA (South, Central, North) is represented by two of the six elected committee members. Terms of office are staggered, so that retiring members are replaced by newly elected members from the same regional division. The publications committee is responsible for the formulation of policies for all publications of the Association. Such policies shall take effect upon ratification by PSA Council.
While members of the Publications Committee may recommend prospective candidates to the Nominations Committee, they do not select individuals for placement on the Association's yearly ballot. They do, however, elect the committee chair. The chair is elected by the voting members of the committee from among their ranks and must be someone who will be a continuing and active member of the committee for at least one year. The chair is normally elected at the scheduled meeting of the committee, which is held at the annual PSA meeting. The chair serves for one year, but can be reelected.
- Responsibilities and duties of the committee. The publications committee is responsible for the formulation of policies for all publications of the Association. Such policies shall take effect upon ratification by PSA Council. It is also responsible for recommending editors of the journal and newsletter to Council, reviewing annual reports which the editors provide to the committee, and for monitoring the publication of Sociological Perspectives and The Pacific Sociologist. From time to time, the committee will also be responsible for negotiating contracts with publishers.
- Procedures for taking committee action. The Publications Committee meets face-to-face once during the year at the PSA Annual Meeting. When business arises during the year, committee members correspond by letter or email. Whenever possible the chair attempts to solicit consensus on issues. When there isn't consensus, a formal vote is taken on all major issues. The majority position prevails on all votes. Other decision-making rules are at the discretion of the chair, decided in consultation with all committee members.
- Specific duties of the Chair. The chair of the Publications Committee oversees the activities of the committee. The chair drafts the advertisements to recruit editors for the journal and newsletter and distributes applications and summaries to committee members. The chair takes the lead in discussing and organizing contract issues with publishers and publishing issues with the editors. The chair also proposes an agenda for the annual committee meeting, chairs the meeting, and attends the Council meetings (scheduled on the second and fourth days of the Annual Meeting) to make recommendations and/or present reports when needed. The chair makes certain that all members of the committee receive copies of annual reports from the editors of the journal and newsletter. The chair also writes the committee's annual report and submits it to the Secretary by May 1. Finally, the chair is in charge of the committee's file or archive and is responsible for passing it on to the new chair.
- Calendar of committee activities.
- By Feb/March: Chair prepares and distributes agenda for meeting in anticipation of a late March or April PSA meeting.
- At PSA Annual Meeting: Publications Committee meets on second or third day, so that action items can be brought to the PSA Council on fourth morning. Editors' reports are presented along with other business. New chair is elected. Prospective candidates for membership on the Publication's Committee are forwarded to the Nominations Committee.

Back To Challenges & Solutions
Becoming a parent is a pivotal moment in a life. Many unexpected and exciting times are experienced from birth until well after the child leaves the nest. For many, the day-to-day tasks of parenting can be rewarding as well as challenging and even overwhelming. How many times have you felt guilty about your frustrations and wished for easy answers? Or felt unprepared, unable to care for and/or give support to your child through the years ahead? At The Option Institute we will help you to feel at ease. We have helped countless individuals and couples to feel fully capable of being the best parent possible and to enjoy each moment of the incredible adventure of parenthood.
What are the Challenges Parents Face?
"Before I got married, I had 6 theories about bringing up children. Now I have 6 children and no theories."
— John Wilmot
Have you ever wished that your children came with an instruction manual? If so, you're not alone. According to the U.S Census Bureau (2000), there are 72 million family households in the U.S., and 34 million of these households have children under the age of 18.
Although being a parent is a dream anticipated with excitement by many, oftentimes, the dream is not matched by practical application. What looked natural and easy from a distance, now seems complex and difficult in reality. We could say that this challenge is the result of the inherent difficulty of parenting, or we can search for a completely different understanding of parenting. We choose the second option.
How The Option Institute Can Help
We believe that parenting can be made not only reasonable, but a wondrous adventure and a most fulfilling life experience. We have found that when parents are grounded by clear principles, they have a sense of purpose and focus which acts like a rudder in a storm. Without a strong grounding in guiding parenting principles, we have to invent a whole new rationale and solution for every challenge we face. We certainly aren't the first ones to advocate for parenting by principle, but our principles are very different from any you may have heard before. Moreover, they are easy to remember and, once learned, easy to apply.
We begin with some fundamental guiding directives: Love, Guide, Let Go. You'll notice that the last 2 words are bolded. These 2 words represent what is, for many, the most difficult aspect of parenting. Why? One of the key reasons is the belief often strongly held by mothers and fathers that what their children do (or don't do) is a reflection of them. This belief makes letting go impossible, and leads to countless instances of parental anguish and stress. In fact, everything you do as a parent is dictated by your beliefs as a parent. Knowing that, we can help you to uncover and discard any beliefs which are making your parenting more difficult and less effective. These include other time-honored beliefs such as: It's your job to make your children happy. In actuality, by replacing this belief with the idea that you can't save you children from their unhappiness (and that's a good thing for them), you help your children to be architects of their lives, rather than victims who wait around for someone else to take away their distress. Ultimately, we can enable you to find your steady center as a parent, and this is a benefit that will serve you and your child whether your child is a toddler having a temper tantrum, a rebellious teen-ager or a grown adult.
Option Institute Programs for Parents
Parenting Solution
Does being a parent seem complex and difficult for you, while it appears so natural and easy for others? Have your kids' challenges and unhappiness left you feeling inept, inadequate and unhappy yourself? Whether your child is a preschooler throwing temper tantrums, a seven year old bouncing off the walls, a teenager pushing the envelope, or a grown adult with children of his own, Parenting Solution can help you put the joy back in parenting! You'll acquire the keys to parenting with clarity and ease.
Are you and your partner on the same page when it comes to parenting? Or, are you at times struggling with different beliefs and expectations? Perhaps you have a great relationship, but still want more. No matter where your relationship is, CouplesCourse can help you make it richer, more loving and more rewarding.Taught primarily by The Option Institute founders, Barry (Bears) Neil Kaufman and Samahria Lyte Kaufman, the course is built on a simple yet profound concept: your partner doesn't make you happy or unhappy. You have the power to decide how you feel, regardless of what your partner does!
Personal Stories — Parenting With Ease and Effectiveness
They say that the inseparable bond between a mother and her child begins at conception, but I know from my own past experiences that this bond forms long before. I have had 6 miscarriages. In recent years, each moment leading up to Mother's Day would agonizingly tear at my heart. I so desperately wanted to be a mother, to have a family, to receive a Mother's Day card; the ache in my heart was unbearable. I hid the searing pain of my sadness behind a protective wall of staid composure and a hopeless acceptance of the will of God. Not even my husband knew the depth of my longing. In our mutual grief, there was an inexpressible loneliness and silence that made any attempt at a shared journey nearly impossible. I had read books by Barry Neil Kaufman and been on The Option Institute's mailing list for years. I finally found myself at The Option Institute participating in a program called Optimal Self-Trust. To my shock and eventual gratitude, the program exposed my wounded heart and paved a path to true healing! I had originally come to learn how to trust myself in my work as a grief counselor and find new ways to help others find a way to heal their hearts. Instead, I learned that I had not really healed my sorrows at all, but merely suppressed a longing to be a mother, rationalizing why mine was an acceptable situation.
I suddenly understood that being or not being a mother did not make me more or less of a person. Only my beliefs have this power. My new beliefs have released me to live my life as an expansive soul, galvanized by my mission to make my dream of motherhood a reality.
I now know that every time anyone makes a judgment, he or she experiences a debilitating contraction of the soul – I had absolutely been living with a contracted soul, fearful of reaching for what I really wanted. My own judgments ('I'm too old.' 'I don't have the right.' 'If I fail again, 'I will die.') had sealed my fate, making a seventh attempt at having a child a daunting, fearful and next-to-impossible prospect.
This Mother's Day, I did receive a card-from my husband – who, of his own volition, has likewise made a shift in consciousness. To my amazement, he asked if I would like to try having another baby – this from a man who, a year ago, refused to discuss such a notion. My life has changed! To The Option Institute and to Bears, I say a profound thank you!
Olivia Kalih I., Grief Counselor, California
I believe that this week has changed my life and put me on the path to a more honest, open, loving relationship with my teenage daughter. I am looking forward to going home and putting all that I have learned to use.
Tammy C., Insurance Company Research Tech, Illinois

By Gilda Foss, Industry Evangelist, Office of the CTO, NetAppBoard of Directors, Ethernet Alliance Chairperson, Technology Exploration Forum
Ethernet is an innovative method allowing computers to send packets of information while avoiding collisions with incoming packets. Furthermore, as we all know, Ethernet is the founding father of network protocols for Local Area Networks – the now-standard protocol to enable devices of many flavors to all connect and communicate on a common high speed wired network. Life as we know it today would be drastically different without this incredibly necessary technology.
Ethernet has gone on to mature heavily over the last four decades into its role as the basis of the IEEE 802.3™ standard, which specifies the physical and lower software layers, and is the foundation for today's world of high-speed communications. With more than 1.2 billion ports shipped in 2012 alone, Ethernet ranks highly among those technologies that impact day-to-day life on a global basis. Data center networks, PCs, laptops, tablets, smartphones, and now the smart grid, smart meters, personal medical devices, the Internet of Things, connected cars, and more – Ethernet touches them all in one way or another. And as Ethernet turns 40, it is poised for a new age of innovation!
In 2013, that ubiquitous LAN technology that we all know and love, celebrates its 40th year of existence. NetApp serves on the Board of the Ethernet Alliance, who is sponsoring a 40th Anniversary Party at the Technology Exploration Forum in October 2013 and this year we are taking it to the future! You won't want to miss this event where many of the best and brightest minds in the networking industry will be. We will be discussing the future of Ethernet, as we target the next generation of applications and technologies that will drive the next generation of specifications. This forum will bring together experts and key players in the Ethernet industry to discuss and explore these areas. In addition to its own broad membership, which includes component vendors, system vendors, and end users, this event is open to non-Ethernet Alliance members. Together, these two constituencies will provide a diverse set of backgrounds, ensuring lively discussion and helping the industry define a vision for the future of Ethernet.
We are also very pleased & honored to announce that Mr. Bob Metcalfe will be our keynote speaker. Most of you know Bob as the founder and inventor of Ethernet so we are just thrilled to have an innovator of his caliber speaking at our event. In addition to his keynote presentation, Bob will also be leading a brainstorming session where ideas will be shared and challenges will be discussed. Overall, this will be a wonderful tribute to the 40th Anniversary of Ethernet and what we can look forward to in the future.
In 1973, Metcalfe and his associates essentially invented a bus topology local area network using a coax cable medium and an access method called 'carrier sense multiple access' with collision detection. Ethernet was amongst a number of other competing LAN developments in the early days but went on to become an IEEE standard where the initial standard designated 802.3 was published in 1985.
Ethernet has continued to be enhanced with high data rates, new transmission media, and a switched topology that improves access and net data rate. Furthermore there have been some amazing enhancements like Carrier Ethernet that puts the technology into the MAN and WAN categories of networking for some applications. Let's raise our proverbial glasses and toast to the 40th anniversary of Ethernet & look forward to what the future will bring!

From May 8-12, 2017, the Terra-i team, together with staff from the DGOTA of Peru's Ministry of Environment, carried out the first field validation of vegetative land cover changes detected during Terra-i monitoring for 2016 and 2017, using the technology UAV. This work was carried out under the framework of the project "Sustainable Amazonian Landscapes". The team carried out over-flights with a Phantom 3 advanced rotor drone and a fixed-wing Ebee drone in seven townships of Yurimaguas. The objective of this work was to recognize the dynamics of land cover and land use changes in the region while at the same time to validate the accuracy of the detections of forest loss being monitored by Terra-i in Yurimaguas.
CIAT and the Terra-i team are pleased to announce the publication of a new study in Paraquaria Natural, the most prestigious journal in Paraguay dedicated to biodiversity and the conservation of nature.
The Terra-i team has worked hard on renovating Terra-i's website since early this year. A set of new features on the website provides interactive contents and facilitates adaptation to the mobile devices of our users. The fresh website was developed using the latest update of an open-source, Java-based web system, Magnolia CMS 5.4.4. This update was customized to add different categories of interaction such as news, vegetation cover changes, and information, among others.
Globally more than 1 billion people depend on forests for their livelihoods. Forests play a crucial role in climate regulation, ecosystem services provision and regulation, water supply, carbon storage and many other functions that support biodiversity. Currently the global rate of deforestation is substantial, and there is a growing need for timely, spatially explicit data that flag natural vegetation changes due to human activities.
New deforestation hotspots point the finger at my favourite fruit I love Terra-i, but today I hate it. A lot. The system uses satellite images to track deforestation in the Amazon in near-realtime. It's extremely accurate: if a bunch of trees come down somewhere – no matter how remote – Terra-i picks it up. Cool, right? Not today. CIAT's Louis Reymondin, the system's chief architect, dropped the bombshell over coffee: it looks as though hundreds of hectares of rainforest in Peru are being trashed by… papaya.
The latest update of Terra-i has been used with the Co$ting Nature ecosystem services assessment tool to understand the impacts of recent forest loss in Colombia on biodiversity and ecosystem services.
The production of geospatial data related to land-use and land cover changes by governments and civil society organizations has vastly increased during the last decade. Going beyond the valuable information (location, rates and absolute values of changes) provided by these datasets, it is important to have a better understanding of the spatial configurations and composition of the detected change areas at multiple spatial resolutions and time periods. Alejandro Coca-Castro's research is aiming to map types of spatial deforestation patterns in the Amazon rainforest through the integration of landscape fragmentation metrics and data mining techniques. The research will contribute to the understanding of two deforestation datasets (Terra-i and GFC) and is part of his master dissertation at King's College London. This blog post highlights Alejandro's research methodology, preliminary findings and challenges.
Ecuador is recognized as one of the biodiverse hotspots on earth, underneath the Amazon rainforest lies the country's oil reservoir. With the oil companies and cleared routes come settlers, therefore more and more of this diverse rainforest is being cut down. Since the oil concerns entered the Ecuadorian Amazon 45 years ago, they keep exploring and exploiting the area. The Terra-i detections reveal a total habitat loss of 87,525 Ha, 16,943 Ha (19%) is part of protected areas, between January 2004 and February 2015.

What You Should Look for When Buying a Chicken Coop
You know that backyard chicken keeping has gone mainstream when national newspapers feature a consumer guide on what to look for in a chicken coop. From video instructionals on how to build a chicken coop to the ultra-trendy Omlet, aka "the iPod of chicken houses", we've certainly seen a fair few options ourselves. But now poultry expert Andy Cawthray gives a detailed rundown of what to look for in a chicken coop over at The Guardian, including an impassioned rant against cheap and badly designed hen houses:
More often than not these mass produced models are constructed of fast grown timber - come the first drop of rain they swell, leaving you either barricading a door that won't close, or ripping the door furniture off in a vain attempt to release the squawking inhabitants. The first warm day means the timber dries and cracks, the felt roof bubbles and boils, and come nightfall the hens refuse to go in. This is not due to their disappointment at the decline of their once attractive property but because the hovel is now a haven for, and probably crawling with, the poultry keeper's nemesis, red mite. Add on the fact that it said on the blurb that it would suit four large hens when that stocking density was based on the Circle Line at 5pm on a Friday, and what are you left with? A couple of hinges and some kindling.

Study points out problems with scan-every-box law
U.S. legislation on container scanning would mean "pivotal and costly changes" for global trade, shipping, port and Customs administrations.
Those are among the findings of a study conducted by the University of Le Havre and released by the World Customs Organization (WCO).
The study looks at legislation passed in 2007, which mandates that all containers destined for the U.S. be scanned prior to loading at the port of origin by July 1, 2012 (the US legislation requires scanning for content as well as radioactive material).
The main conclusions of the study point out the weaknesses as well as challenges and opportunities the implementation of this legislation stands to bring to more than 600 ports and to the global logistics chain.
"We commissioned an independent academic research body to undertake this study as a first step in determining how best to move forward in an effective and mutually beneficial manner in view of the new U.S. legislation and its resulting cost, capacity, and logistics concerns," said Mr. Michel Danet, WCO Secretary General.
"There is no question that we are all determined to find the best practical solution; one that will provide the US with the added security it seeks to prevent any act of terrorism from being carried out using international shipping channels, but which will not burden global trade unnecessarily," stressed Mr. Danet.
"Sight should also not be lost of the fact that in response to increased trade security concerns following the 9/11 terror incidents in the U.S., WCO Members have been steadily implementing the WCO SAFE Framework of Standards to secure and facilitate global trade since its adoption in 2005, and in which container scanning is only one element of a more comprehensive intelligence process based on risk management and the sharing of information," Mr. Danet added.
"Implementation of the SAFE Framework is supported by a sustainable Customs capacity building programme and valuable advice from the WCO's Private Sector Consultative Group," concluded Mr. Danet .
The research indicates that port authorities and customs services have voiced two main concerns:
1. the technical and organizational difficulties of bringing 100% scanning of U.S.-bound exports into operation by 2012;
2. the issue of reciprocity of this procedure for containerized traffic leaving the U.S. for main ports in other countries.
While scanning technology is expected to be up to the challenge by 2012, and some of the larger and more advanced ports could be ready for implementation, there are many unknown factors that may hinder the application or effectiveness of this legislation. The cost of infrastructure and equipment, port risk management, hiring and training staff, the ability to monitor, interpret and asses every image in a timely manner, are some the areas identified by the study as problematic. Due to these complex factors the effectiveness of applying this blanket approach to ensure the security of shipments is questionable, the study shows.
The WCO says it is releasing the study publicly to allow its results to be debated by customs representatives, port operators, manufacturers of scanning technology, and service providers. In the months ahead, the work of the WCO will focus on engaging its Members and other Customs and trade stakeholders in order to explore various options that will enable the WCO to offer the U.S. administration positive counter-proposals that will meet its needs and result in the 100% scanning legislation being repealed.

Actually, Singer has a sewing machine foot that is designed to do exactly that tiny of a hem with just one pass with your sewing machine! It is called a "flange hemmer" foot, and actually makes a rolled hem only 1/2 the width of the smallest rolled hemming foot, making it 1/16 of an inch. I found out about it when I came across a 1954 "Singer Sewing Skills reference book" that details what each of the Singer sewing machine attachments available could do. Luckily, I won a huge lot of sewing machine attachments and feet, that include several of the flange hemmer feet on Ebay, so I should be able to try one of these puppies very shortly! I have always wondered how handkerchief hems were made, and while they could be made exactly as demonstrated above, I am hoping to be able to successfully use this foot to hem several items! Apparently it was a recommended hem for silk, chiffon, satins & other such delicate, luxe fabrics, and can even be used on circular sewing projects like round table clothes, and bias cut hems! It is recommended for use on bias cut fabrics, that a straight stay stitch be stitched 1/32 of an inch from the edge of the fabric to be hemmed with the flange hemmer, (if it is easier, stay stitch 1/4 of an inch from the edge, then trim it to 1/32 of an inch from the stitching, and the stay stitching will stabilize the edge and make it easier to control going into the "curl" of the flange hemmer. Sounds like a winner to me!

This is a quilt I made to benefit Charlie's school. I donated a custom baby quilt to a silent auction, to be made according to the buyer's preferences. He said green was his favorite color, and he especially liked the frog fabric I'd used in one of my sample photos. So green and frogs it is.
I used Allison's Chain Reaction pattern from Cluck, Cluck, Sew. I like her version very much, and the pattern's nicely written and illustrated — no complaints there. But something about my version...doesn't...speak to me. I don't know if it's because I made a smaller version with fewer blocks — probably! — but the proportions don't feel right. It was improved by widening the edges so that the binding doesn't come right up against the framed blocks, but not solved entirely. I didn't have time to play with it more than that. I might make another quilt from this pattern and experiment, but, well, probably not. World enough and time.
Still, it's kind of cute.
For the binding, which is entirely machine-sewn, I used Rita's tutorial from Red Pepper Quilts. I haaaated the first side I sewed; there was way too much fabric left flapping over on the back. But I easily discovered my problem: I was pulling the binding far enough to actually fill the binding, which resulted in too great an overlap hanging over the stitching line. If I pulled it much less, pinning it just past the binding's seam line, the overlap was a lot neater.
This was obvious, but unsatisfying. I like my bindings to be nicely filled, and for some reason — technique? different batting loft? — this binding isn't great in that respect. I need to cut my strips much narrower than Rita suggests. (She uses 2.25" but recommends beginners use 2.5". I split the difference and used 2.375" and found it too wide.)
So this will take some more experimentation, but once I have my own preferences solidly addressed, wow, is this going to revolutionize my quilting life. It ends up looking very tidy and professional on the back, and I am nothing if not tidy and professional.
...Except on the back. I just don't know any good, easy way around this, the dark thread on light fabric on the back. It offends me, but I'm not enough of a perfectionist to do what's required to avoid it. In other words, my laziness eclipses my craftsmanship on a shockingly regular basis.
Nevertheless, it's finished, it's froggy, and I hope the auction winner will like it for his grandchild-to-be.
We have a chair that's been in my husband's family for some time. It has a funky emblem on its back, a crowned snake flanked by a hammer and some pliers. It used to be covered in a dusty old silk damask. I thought it was time to bring in some whimsy. Because that is what I do. I am a bringer...of whimsy.
Here's a close-up of the motif. Recognize it? Snake-Builders' Union? Dentists by Appointment to the Royal House of Boomslang? Loyal International Brotherhood of Oh, Shit There's a Snake in My Toolbox?
And a look at the chair's seat. I used two of Erin Michael's prints from Lush, some coordinating solids, an Amy Butler — one of my all-time favorite prints, Wall Flower from Lotus — and an Anna Maria Horner print. The patches are banded in natural linen.
This has been around in my Flickr stream for a while, but I haven't posted it here before because I didn't want to tip off the recipient early.
I made this for a friend of mine who requested a quilt to use during her yoga classes. I guess they use folded pads to prop up their chakras or something. This friend has a special fondness for mermaids, so I'd already snapped up yards and yards (and yaaards, but that's another story) of Heather Ross's Mendocino line when it came out.
Those fabrics plus the Mixtape pattern from Oh, Fransson! plus a border of little bitty squares plus some Munki Munki pajamas — the yoga girls dreaming of cake — resulted, if I may say so, in purest cushiony awesome.
This is a biiiiig pillow made of liiiitle squares. My friend's daughter redecorated her room, so I made this pillow to dress it up a bit. I used a tutorial from Twin Fibers; I'd point to it but my link seems to be broken.
In short, the process goes:
I then zigzagged the edges and washed and dried it to take care of the fraying and shrinkage before it got turned into a pillow cover. Then I...turned it into a pillow cover with a simple envelope back.
The final step before giving it away was a careful haircut of the threads that frayed during washing. And stern instructions to the recipient: For the love of God, don't pick at it.
MechaKingPinzilla Zero?
Whatever you call it, it's another Square Deal pincushion Charlie helped make, and, boy, is Godzilla pissed.
Now that the season is officially over, apparently it's time for me to post a photo of a Christmas project...from last year.
I found amandajean's tree skirt tutorial three days before Christmas last year and needed one for my soul. I had several weird scrappy blocks made from Christmas prints already, so I knocked out 8 little bitty Log Cabins, whacked them into a row, and framed them with some red snowflake fabric I'd bought in inadvisable bulk.
...And then I zag, keeping me permanently and uncomfortably out of step. I totally suck at parades.
Some more pics are in my Flickr stream.

3 signs it's time to invest in property
During the March quarter of 2016, 94.2 per cent of people who sold property in the capital cities made a profit on the sale, according to CoreLogic RP Data Pain and Gain Report. Even more impressively, the average gross profit across the entire Australian real estate market was a staggering $239,855. With this amount in mind, it's obvious that property investment, can net you a massive profit and help make your financial future a brighter one.
That's not to mention the tax benefits and rental income you'll enjoy, which could equal or even exceed capital gains over the life of the investment. Despite these considerable benefits, many Australians are still reluctant to take control of their financial futures and invest, perhaps due to the money, time and effort required.
With that in mind, let's have a closer look at three of the telltale signs that it's time to expand your empire and invest in property.
Up to 70 per cent of people who suddenly receive a large sum of money will lose it within a few years.
You're retiring
A comfortable retirement for two people will cost $640,000 according to research by the Association of Superannuation Funds Australia. If you start saving money in your infancy, and put away a combined total of $10,000 a year with your partner, you'll only just accumulate this amount assuming you retire at the average age of 65.
Investing in a rental property is a smart option in this situation. When you eventually pay down your mortgage, you'll have a regular income to help sustain a luxurious and lengthy retirement.
In fact if you live for 82 years (the average Australian life expectancy, according to the World Bank), and charge the median capital city rental, you'll receive almost 430,000 in total. This amount is almost two-thirds of the sum needed for you and your partner to retire in comfort.
A comfortable retirement for two people could cost as much as $640,000.
You own property mortgage-free
If you're one of the lucky (and hardworking) Australians who own a property mortgage-free, it's understandable that the last thing you want to do is get yourself another mortgage.
However the benefits of smart investment are undeniable, and getting into the Australia real estate market may just be the smartest move for your financial future.10 to 20 more years of spending on property related expenses and interest, could be the difference between living comfortably for life and working into your twilight years.
You've inherited or won money
Up to 70 per cent of people who suddenly receive a large sum of money will lose it within a few years, according to research by the National Endowment for Financial Education. While this is American research, it reveals a human tendency to consume with reckless abandon when you've got more than you need.
People that once lived a modest existence may suddenly spend at an astronomical rate, on the most ridiculous things, until one day the money's all gone.
For this reason if you've won the lottery or inherited a large sum of money, buying property will help ensure that you've still got some wealth left when the excitement dies down. For an example let's imagine you won $10 million in the national Lottery and spent half of it on property in Sydney in July 2015.
Assuming your property grew in value at the average Sydney rate of 9 per cent during this period, you'd net a massive profit of $450,000 if you sold in July 2016.
Instead of putting it off until it's too late and the market has calmed down, act quickly and your money worries will eventually be a thing of the past.

Notebook: Tech-nically Speaking
Dec. 31, 2009
By Amy Farnum
TECH-NICALLY SPEAKING: No. 1 Michigan Tech continued to prove why it has reigned at the top of the national rankings for the entire first half of the season as the Huskies handed Concordia-St. Paul its first loss of the season, 82-74, on Dec. 29, a battle of unbeaten teams.
Katie Wysocky tied a career-high with 28 points and Danae Danen added 21 as the Huskies improved to 10-0 on the season. Wysocky added 12 rebounds for her seventh double-double of the year. Tech put together a 20-0 run in the first half as it built a commanding lead against the Golden Bears.
"Our inside game really pulled us through," said head coach John Barnes. "Katie (Wysocky) and Danae were a huge factor. I also thought we maintained our composure during their runs and kept our turnovers down against their press."
The Huskies are approaching the school record for wins to start a season (12 in 1998-99). Tech will look to improve on its unbeaten record as it faces arch rival Northern Michigan on Jan. 2.
TRITONS TESTED: Senior guard Annette Ilg played a key role in No. 14 UC San Diego's two victories at the Triton Holiday Classic as the Tritons moved their record to a perfect 8-0 mark.
Ilg started the tournament with a career-high 24 and game-clinching basket with 30 seconds remaining in the Tritons double-overtime win over No. 20 Seattle Pacific on Dec. 28. It was the first time in the nine-game series UCSD knocked off the Falcons. Ilg followed that performance with 15 points and a career-best nine assists and six steals in an 89-82 victory over Western Washington. She was one of three Tritons named to the all-tournament team.
With the victories, UCSD tied the school record for consecutive wins to start a season. The defending CCAA champion Tritons will now resume conference play at Cal State L.A. and Cal State Dominguez Hills January 2-3.
BLUE STREAK: Despite a 36 percent shooting performance, No. 8 Washburn pulled out its 11th consecutive victory with a 57-47 win at Fort Hays State on Dec. 30. The Lady Blues are now 5-0 league play and are on top of the Mid-America Intercollegiate Athletics Association standings. It was the 14th straight time WU has defeated the Tigers.
Washburn is 11-0 for the second straight year, and leads the league in scoring defense, allowing just 52.7 points per game. Against the Tigers, the Lady Blues were well short of their MIAA-leading field goal percentage of 45.1.
The Lady Blues look to keep their record flawless at Central Missouri on Jan. 2.
BATTLE OF UNBEATENS: No. 4 University of Indianapolis cruised to its 10th straight victory with a 76-43 win over Christian Brothers on Dec. 30, setting up a battle of unbeatens between the Greyhounds and No. 12 Quincy (10-0) on Jan. 2.
UIndy and Quincy are the Great Lakes Valley Conference's last remaining undefeated squads. The Greyhounds are 2-0 in GLVC East Division play, while the Lady Hawks are 2-0 in the North Division.
The Greyhounds have posted a 25.6-point scoring margin per game, and top the GLVC in scoring defense (50.4 ppg) while Quincy paces the league in scoring (83.1 ppg).

Internationalization of Graduate Education for Agricultural and Rural Development (IGEARD) International Conference
22-23 November 2016. Manila, Philippines
Organized by the Graduate School, University of the Philippines Los Baños (UPLB)
Theme: Internationalization of Graduate Education towards Inclusive and Sustainable Agriculture and Rural Development
The internationalization of graduate education has caused impact on higher education institutions to rethink new approaches, policies and initiatives in their offering graduate programs especially those that gear towards agricultural and rural development. This is evident on how they recruit students, provide opportunities for faculty and student exchange programs, hire international faculty members and establish academic collaboration and cooperation in research and development with universities and research institutions abroad. Academic programs undergo revisions to be innovative, highlight interdisciplinary collaboration and contribute to inclusive and sustainable agricultural and rural development.
However, while internationalization of graduate education has benefits, there are costs that might result including brain drain of agriculture human resources and the inequitable access and unequal opportunities in the agricultural sector. Indeed, the impact of internationalization of graduate education on the development of agriculture and rural sector is a major issue that merits discussion.

- Sweet
- Slutty
micgirl gets it as I like the way she put it.
thanks again. have a nice weekend. :P
Have an opinion?
i accidentally chose slutty but I meant sweet and sexy. if I'm going to be attracting guys, I don't want to be attracting them for the wrong reasons. they would get the impression that I'm a slut and I'm not so dressing sweet will attract the right guys.
lol sureeeee you did
Slutty and Sexy but not TOTAL NOT WEARING UNDERWEAR type slutty,
and because I wanna get laid!
So you like to dress slutty and attract the pervs who just want sex from you and use you as a wham bam thank you mam type. In other words all you think you are good for is sex. One day maybe a real man will want you but you will just push him away. You have no room to complain you can not get a real man. Basically you are saying you are a slut
Definitely slutty because I want to attract douche bags
sarcasm or real?
Sweet. I don't want guys getting the wrong impression from how I dress, I have class, and dressing slutty would make me feel very uncomfortable.
Woot woot! Good answer, but is classy also sexy in your case?
Thanks :) I'm not going to wear a long sleeve t-shirt and sweatpants! I'll likely wear a dark pair of jeans, heels, and a dressy, semi-low-cut top. The rest will have to be left to the imagination :)
Not slutty, that looks cheap and you attract the wrong attention.
Sweet, I feel is abit boring, anyone can dress sweet normally. When I go out, I always make an effort because is a confidence booster, knowing you look nice. Dressing sexy isn't stupidly short skirts and a cropped top, but wearing a sleek black dress definitely attracts the right attention.
I say, Sweet and a bit sexy. I think that if your going into public, whatever skin your showing. . . not only can your date see, but also everyone else. That typically makes the date uncomfortable knowing that everyone can see his gf's chest. . . or your bf's butt. When your alone, that's the time to be and dress sexy.
I dress "sweet" all the time so when it's time to party I'm gettin' all sexed up! ha ha besides I'm already taken and when I go out I'm usually with my boyfriend so it's fun to have guys drooling over me even more than usual just so I can turn them down lol I'm such a meanie
ohhh you're ''that girl'' alright. :P lmao. poor bastard.
I know you already have a boyfriend so its alright to turn guys down, but what if that guy was one of those guys who have really low confidence and finally decided to grab life by the balls and ask some hottie out? There goes his confidence lol... that poor, poor bastard...
ha ha I was referring to the boyfriend.
the ''mark'' dodged a f***in bullet there :P
I usually wear (guy kind of/ unisex) of tshirts everysingle day; hence, I do not follow faishion or care to at all. Dressing "sweet and sexy" is enough drama and stress for me as it is.
Sweet and sexy because it can show me whether or not the guy is worth another night out which could turn a little slutty as long as its with him:)
Sweet & Sexy
I'm not one to let all my goods hang out.Gotta keep it classy.
Most of us spend a lot of time staying away from guys who are looking for slutty girls, so the answer is obvious I think. SWEET!
sweet and sexy. Slutty and sexy would make me look and feel like cheap trash. I wouldn't feel very respectable with everything falling out of my clothes.
Sweet :) I don't like to give the message that I want a lot of attention.
This one is completely my night out style. But not that expensive unfortunately.
Sweet because I'm not a "slutty" person really.
Plus sometimes you pick up guys when your out and don't want them to have the wrong Idea
sweet and sexy. nothing says it better when a girl can be sexy and "conservative-ish."
Sweet, I want guys to respect me and I represent a sweet girl more than a slutty one.
sweet and sexy, definitely because you don't want to give a guy the wrong idea.
sweet and sexy. modesty can be just as hot as slutty and plus it'll attract better guys a lot of the time.
i like sweet and sexy makes me feel like a girl and I can be cute and comfortable but of course not act dumb, Just wanted to make that clear lol
they will all say sweet but in practice its slutty, the point of going out to the clubs is to get attention and every woman knows slutty gets attention.
woman want to be treated like the sweet woman they think they are but they also want the attention acting like a slut draws.
i guess it depends where they are going..
It'd be nice to see a slutty but oh well.
So you want to see someone who doesn't care if her butt, and boobs are showing a lot. They can be dressed sweet and still be sexy because slutty is trashy and says they do not care how they look or they type of people they attract.
Go slutty and sexy!
How is slutty ever sexy. Slutty is trashy.
You cannot undo this action. The opinion owner is going to be notified and earn 7 XPER points.

This is a digital file
Instant download for a counted cross stitch pattern for a cute mid-century modern style giraffe. Designed for two embroidery hoops. You will download a PDF file of the needlepoint pattern after cleared payment. It is designed on 22 ct. aida fabric for 4" hoops. However, If you prefer a larger stitching fabric just remember that your cross stitch will increase in size as your fabric squares increase in size (see tip below). Your pattern will include suggested floss colors and will be in represented in symbols. Fairly simple design with regular full cross stitches only!This is not a listing for the finished product.You will download a PDF file of the needlepoint pattern after cleared payment.TIP: for figuring out what hoop size to use based on the preferred count of your stitching fabric:A 4" hoop has approximately 3.75" of workable surface (due to the space claimed by the inner hoop. 22 ct fabric has 22 stitches per inch, so 3.75 x 22 = 82.5 workable stitches for this pattern.If you want to use 14 count fabric, then 82.5 x 14= 5.89 approximate inches of work surface necessary. So round up and use a 6" embroidery hoop! You can see how this formula will work with any fabric count!Have fun and happy stitching!*Mid Century Maude retains all copy rights to this image

Lots of great dining options, all along the river are beloved favorites, with some new-comers as well.
The latest gem: the enormously popular new steakhouse Chicago Cut at 300 North LaSalle. It just opened in September, but it is already a huge hit with A-listers and heavy-hitters because of both the highly regarded food and the quintessential Chicago view.
"We saw visually that you could sit here and see the skyscrapers of Chicago. You could see the folks going down the river. You could see the "el" going by. It was removed off the street and that gave time out to really look at what Chicago is," said David Flom, co-owner, Chicago Cut.
Executive Chef Jackie Shen says she's inspired by the gently rolling river.
"The river takes you into different levels, of eating and of enjoying life, and you remember all that," said Shen.
Eventually, city leaders hope to have a riverwalk-type atmosphere in Chicago, similar to that found in San Antonio. They envision a place bustling with a variety of divergent culinary treasures, like Mary Madison's restaurant Lagniappe, which means "a little something extra" down in the delta. At the spot, you'll find authentic Creole and Cajun delicacies in Chicago between Clark and Dearborn, right at the water's edge.
"What we do here is bring authentic Cajun food to the riverwalk. We replicate the bayou here in Chicago, giving it a fair representation of what the Big Easy offers," said Madison.
Madison means mouth-watering food along with a healthy helping of jazz and blues, all of it enhanced by that mellow river vibe.
"It's just a very serene type of feeling. I think it brings peace and calmness to the people. The people really enjoy it even more when we have our live blues and jazz because we fuse the music in with it, and it gives them a very good time," Madison said.
Of course, you can't talk waterfront dining in Chicago without mentioning the iconic Riva on Navy Pier. The appropriately named favorite has been featuring great food and spectacular city views since 1995.
"We have two different personalities. We have the personality of the view and white tablecloth dining up here, which is still casual dining. It is not as fancy as people would think, but we also have the casual dining downstairs, which is more into sandwiches and cafe dining on the pier where you sit outside and enjoy a beer," said Frank D'Angelo, general manager, Riva.
All while enjoying the ships, the fireworks and the people-watching in this ever-changing city.

First year of being diagnosed advice ?
Does anyone have any advice or experiences that they would like to share with newly diagnosed or first year, (newbie's), diabetics based on your experiences lived or learned during your first or early years since you were diagnosed as being diabetic ?
4 replies
My first bit of advice would be to go to a diabetes education class. They will cover just about everything you ned to know. Stay in touch with the dietician, she is there to help with meal plans what you can eat and what not to eat. And one most important things for me anyway is exercise, not only will it help lower your glucose readings but also will help you to lose weight. And if there should happen to be a support group in your area join it. I go once a month and there is so much more a person can learn. The dietician and diabetes nurse is in charge of our and they will take suggestions and to what you want to talk about or have guest speakers come in and talk about the different complications of diabetes
I just went past my first year being diagnosed last week.
My A1C went from 14.1 to 5.4 in less than a year. Dropped to 5.9 in four months.
This is what I did to achieve what most people think is great. Read my story here.
I have a few questions I haven't found an answer for yet.
I wake up in the mornings with an overwhelming sweet taste in my mouth. I've cut so much sugar from my diet I can't figure out what is causing this. Is it diabetes related?
If I don't have an appitite in the morning and wait to eat, later I feel like I crash within minutes and want to sleep forever. Any ideas on how to stop this without having to eat a regular breakfast? I can't stand the thought of food when I wake up.
I drink a low carb protien shake in the morning when I wake up. I found it helps with the liver dumps, if I don't eat anything my blood sugar spikes 20-30 points. I post my story here. http://kirla.wordpress.com/ It explains everything I do to control my blood sugar.
Good luck

The first contacts between Danes and people on the Gold Coast were established in the middle of the 17th century. In that period the Danes built among other things the Christiansborg Castle in Accra. This part of the history came to a close in 1850, when Denmark sold her holdings to England.
Soon after Ghana's independence in 1957, Denmark assisted Ghana in the area of adult education by building and running the Folk High School in Tsito in the Volta Region. This was one of the first development projects in Africa, carried out by a Danish NGO. During the first decades after independence, Denmark contributed to development efforts in Ghana both through loans on favourable terms and through various NGO projects, in particular the Ghana Friendship groups in Denmark. The official development cooperation between Ghana and Denmark began in 1958. In 1961, a Danish Embassy was opened in Accra. Linked to political developments, the Embassy was however, closed again in 1983. 8 years later the Embassy was reopened. Today it has 23 employees, of which 7 have been posted to Accra. This reflects the considerable development cooperation between Ghana and Denmark. Other accredited countries covered by the Accra embassy are Guinea, Ivory Coast, Liberia, Togo, and Sierra Leone.

Kcal 210 Fat 13.0g Fat(sats) 8.0g Carbs 23.0g (per 40.0g serving)
Despite Charlie and the Chocolate Factory being widely recognised as one of the most loved children's book of all time, the Wonka confectionery brand currently has a very limited presence here in the UK. Back in 2005 Nestle did seemingly bring the brand to UK shores for a brief period (See HERE), however those bars appear to be long gone. Conversely the brand in America is still quite strong, and recently three new flavours got introduced under a sub-brand named 'Exceptionals'. Luckily for me (and all you of course!!) my pals at Yankee Soda & Candy managed to obtain a limited stock (See HERE), and today I will be taking a look at the Chocolate Waterfall flavour. On pack the wrapper this chocolate was described as 'a combination of swirled milk and white chocolate' that was 'truly amazing, and made with all natural ingredients'.
One thing I can't fault Nestle for on these Wonka bars is attention to detail - this was not a 100.0g bar of chocolate .. oh no ... this was a 99.2g bar of chocolate :D As awful as my picture looks above (sorry!) the wrapper did actually look pretty cool, and appeared zany and distinctive enough to be believable that it had come from a factory of one Mr Wonka. Not to be outdone by it's foil exterior, the chocolate also looked damn sharp, with the swirled milk and white chocolate proving to be almost hypnotic with it's eye catching patterning. Once I had managed to snap out of my swirled chocolate trance, the forthcoming sweet dairy smells were the next thing to hit my senses, raising my anticipation even further.
Having never tasted Wonka chocolate before I was really unaware of what to expect. Would this be a company creating cheap chocolate to cash in on an idealistic brand name? Or would the quality of the product actually prove to be ok? Thankfully I can say it was more the latter, and it probably deserves more than just being labelled 'ok'. As you can see above the block sizes were a bit on the large side, but it was no real hassle breaking them into smaller pieces. When doing so the chocolate broke with a satisfying snap which is always a good thing as it indicates the chocolate is relatively fresh. Taste wise the chocolate was pretty unique in it's flavours, which is something I have to admit I wasn't expecting from a Nestle product as a lot of them tend to just taste the same. The chocolate was what I would describe as sweet, yet it never had a sugary sharpness, as a fudgey cocoa influence occupied the majority of the taste. From what I could detect the white chocolate influence came to the party in the form of some slightly yogurty, cream flavour bursts that were apparent every now and then in certain stages of the melt. Speaking of the textures the chocolate melted at a fine rate, and with a real softness and elegance that I would rank above that of your average mass produced chocolate. I didn't think this was the most satisfying of chocolates I have eaten, but this predominantly driven by the moreishness of the taste.
Overall this was a great first experience to have with the Wonka brand and it has really got me excited about trying the other two variants from the range. As you might have been able to tell above I did have some preconceived fears before tasting this chocolate that it might be a product that relies on it's brand name alone to generate interest. Having now tasted it I can confirm that the quality of the product very much matches up to the standards I was hoping for, and if I was to place the quality of the chocolate in the context of the total mass produced market I put it up there with the likes of Milka etc. I thought this Chocolate Waterfall bar was going to have a hard time living up to the excitement that the wrapper and overall presentation created, but I felt the chocolate more than held it's own. The taste wasn't as distinctive as the likes of Dairy Milk, but the smooth, fudge noted cocoa taste was certainly compelling enough to hold my interest. If you are after a second opinion why not check out Cybele's review on Candy Blog (See HERE). I personally really liked this bar, and would have it again in the future if given the chance - more Wonka chocolate coming next week!
