Want to join our DT?...
We have an amazing team of creative minds here at Polkadoodles and the focus is on TEAM and not ME!
We are always on the lookout for Team talent and prefer to find people organically rather than specific DT calls, so if you would love to join us please see below for our requirements....
ALL OF OUR TEAM MEMBERS MUST HAVE AN ACTIVE BLOG WHICH SHOWCASES THEIR WORK AND BE ACTIVE ON SOCIAL MEDIA SITES (if you don't please read ** at the bottom of the post why we have this criteria**)
We are famous for our downloads, digital stamps and clear/rubber stamps, dies and papers, but our products are in amazing collections which are a full printable paper kit. You will be expected to print out all your papers and have a handle (if not an expert) on how to download and print what you use.
So you must have a decent printer and be prepared to do this.
We also provide SVG cutting files so if you have a Silhouette Cameo or Scan n Cut or other electronic cutting machine you will love our images.
We are not all about colouring although obviously this is a big part of what we do - we also want traditional paper crafters who love florals, making boxes, decor, concept cards and mixed media too so dont think you cant apply if you dont colour - we have a lot of diversity in our team and we pick people who can bring something new to the mix that we don't already have.
Composition and Quality of work - as we are a high profile company we expect our team to showcase our products in the best way possible - this means we expect a decent skill level of crafter, composition of your cards and how you put designs together is important to us and you should be able to show this on your blog posts too.
1. Commitment....We have a large team which is split into smaller sub teams which have slightly different roles.
We expect a good level of social level engagement from our team - so if you are someone who sits on the sidelines and turns up once a month to show your work, you're probably not for us. We engage together and interact a lot with our customers to enhance and encourage their crafting experience and our own and this makes us feel like one huge family which is very rewarding for everyone and feeds our creativity.
We are very team orientated and this will probably be like no other team you've been part of before - so if you are someone who is looking to get famous quick, further your career and get into TV and think this team is a stepping stone to bigger and better things then please walk on by....we want people who genuinely love our products and want to be part of something bigger and better than their own solo ambitions.
By being part of a successful team you will receive many rewards - including recognition across the crafting community, showcasing your work through our popular channels and large customer base and even the possibility of having your best work shown on TV and working on special projects, but this is earned and is part of the whole process.
You will be supported all the way in your crafty endeavours but in return we expect dedication and commitment long term.
You will be rewarded with lots of amazing products you will love, with a steady supply of new stash each month.
We cannot pay you monetarily for your work but product value will outweigh any monetary value you would expect and you will receive a generous discount in the store.
Digi Choosday (Tuesday) - Weekly Posts on Social Media such as Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest & Instagram plus 1 Weekly Blog Post.
The team's mission is to specifically promote our Digital Downloads worldwide.
Polkadoodles Friday - Weekly Posts on Social Media such as Facebook, Twitter, Pinterest & Instagram plus 2 weekly Blog Posts.
The team's mission is to promote the full range of Polkadoodles range of products worldwide.
Commitment to make physical samples which might be shown on TV Craft Channels and at Craft Shows as and when required
Our Facebook groups help encourage crafters of all levels to show and share their colouring work with like-minded people who love to colour and craft. In craft, colouring can be extremely competitive and I feel that people can often feel intimidated and overwhelmed by some of the amazing work they see. It can be difficult if you don't have much confidence to feel comfortable sharing what you make especially if you personally feel it's not as good as other work you might see. To try and combat this we encourage ALL colouring abilities whether you're advanced or a beginner to share. Sharing your work is a HUGE and very important part of crafting - you will always receive encouragement and we will never allow any trolling or negative comments within the group. Every crafter had to start somewhere and we are all just on a different stage of the craft journey together....I like to think of it as a crafting road around the world....we all set off at the start line but we all start at different times so we all finish at different times and improve along the way. Some people are just a bit ahead of others on the road, that's all.
Our teams post several times per week across Facebook and their job is to encourage and support members of the Polkadoodles groups with their work too.
2. Commenting and Voting - We love to thank people who enter our challenges so every teamie is required to do this on a rota system so it's not too much work.
3. Be nice! We don't like bad eggs in our team so please be nice and polite to both the team and our customers, we try to keep the riff raff at bay!
So if we haven't put you off yet and you still want to apply please email us HERE telling us why we should choose you and a link to your blog and Facebook pages - we look forward to hearing from you!
Here at Polkadoodles I insist that all my team have a blog where they can showcase their work. Many people don't understand this and think having a blog is unnecessary when we are all now so involved in other social media such as Facebook.
The reason I insist on it is this:
As part of the Polkadoodles Design Team your job is to showcase our products to as many people as possible across the world by showing them what they can make with our products.
If you have a Facebook account you probably on average have maybe 200-300 friends. Some of these will be your family and friends that have nothing to do with craft.
Twitter - you maybe have 100 followers on Twitter
Pinterest - perhaps 100 followers
Instagram - the same.
Blog - perhaps you only have 50 followers on your blog.
So out of your 300 friends probably only 100 actually see what you post and maybe half of those are not crafters. So you are actually promoting to about 50 people.
MORE IMPORTANTLY - the only people who can actually see YOUR Facebook posts are your FRIENDS.
The same principles apply to Twitter, Pinterest and Instagram although your photos are able to be seen publicly.
I like to think of it this way, it's easy....
You're walking down Social Media street, a little cash in your pocket, window shopping for stash.
You walk into the Facebook shopping centre/mall....and you can see all your friends' shops, but you see a ton of other shops which all have their doors closed and you need to be a member or know the doorman to get in. That's so annoying! They are called Crafty Carol's and Creative Claire, but you can't see what's inside because the shutters are on the windows. So you have a quick look in your friends' stores then leave the mall and carry on down Social Media street and find Pinterest - oooo look! Pretty pictures!! You get lost in there for days!...Twitter - oooo lots of interesting shops and they just appear in front of me with their shops and offers and messages but I can't very easily see what was there beyond a few hours ago....Instagram - oooo lots of pretty stuff too and no salespeople I can just mooch around but I have to really find the stuff I like!....Ohhh Blogland....Wow! Look at this shop! Here there's pretty pictures but this shop tells me how they made this and where I can buy all the stuff from, and they're in Timbuctoo, wow! Look they posted links for me to find stuff I might like and oh! there's a video here let me save that link for later and Oh!! and I can see what they made 10 years ago too, it's all in a library look! cool!
Facebook is a closed door that you have to ask permission to access, and if you don't keep going in the shop and talking to the person on the till you lose your access within a few weeks and you're locked out again, missing out on all those goodies and you dont even realise it.
We need you to be working with open Social Media platforms and a blog enables you to build a permanent library of work where people can go back years and years and find things. Wherever they are in the world, and whether they know you or not.
Although they're obviously important too ; )
So get a blog. Simples.

But, I am very happy to report that Jane's Carousel (which, like me, is from Youngstown, OH) survived the flood as well, and it is sort of a beautiful hurricane miracle. This carousel, built in 1922, lived in a beloved, local amusement park, Idora Park, that both my parents, grandparents, aunts and uncles visited back in Youngstown, OH. It closed the year before I was born, after a fire swept through the park. Jane's Carousel was relocated, eventually, to New York City where it was housed in a glass pavilion in Brooklyn Bridge Park. This photo puts the hurricane into quite an eerily beautiful perspective.

With Del Mar and Saratoga in the rear-view mirror, the eyes of Thoroughbred racing now are focused on the year-end championship events.
Belmont fires up its fall meeting on Saturday. Santa Anita and Keeneland are not far behind. The Super Derby on Saturday gives late-blooming 3-year-olds a chance to step up. Presque Isle Downs has a couple logical Breeders' Cup preps. And Arlington, Louisiana Downs and others offer lucrative weekend juvenile races.
There's so much going on in Ireland and England that a helicopter may be needed to ferry at least one of the participants to his key engagements.
And this transition week finds some important races already in the book, as noted below.
Let's take a flying look:
England and Ireland
Things are so hot and heavy here on Saturday that top rider William Buick is trying to figure out how he can ride at Haydock in England at 3:25 p.m. and still get to Leopardstown in Ireland for a 5:45 p.m. post time. It would be worth his while as Buick would be riding Australian sprinter Orensia in the Group 1 Betfred Sprint Cup at Haydock and Nathaniel in the Group 1 Red Mills Irish Champion Stakes at Leopardstown. "Obviously, I would very much like to ride both horses," Buick said early in the week. "It is still possible I could do both but my loyalty is to John Gosden," Nathaniel's trainer. Mind you, while Coral-Eclipse winner Nathaniel is at the top of his game, he is no sure thing for this race as the opposition includes the resurgent world traveler Snow Fairy and Aidan O'Brien's "home team" of St Nicholas Abbey and Daddy Long Legs. St Nicholas Abbey is the defending Breeders' Cup Turf winner. Daddy Long Legs will be happy out of America, where he has raced against 38 rivals in three races and finished in front of just one of them. Born to Sea and Light Heavy complete the lineup. Ortensia is one of 15 set for Haydock. The biggest threat to the Nunthorpe winner could be Bated Breath, who is looking for a first Group 1 win for trainer Roger Charlton. Strong Suit, Dandy Boy and Gordon Lord Byronalso are among those in prospect for the 1,200-meters feature, as is France's 4-year-old filly, Whizz Kid. The latter was second to Moonlight Cloud in her last outing at Deauville.
Also on the Curragh schedule are Saturday's Group 1 Coolmore Fusaichi Pegasus Matron Stakes for fillies and mares at 1 mile and Sunday's Group 1 Moyglare Stud Stakes for 2-year-old fillies going 7 furlongs.
A nice lineup of local horses is set to go in Sunday's Group 2 Centaur Stakes at Hanshin. Among them is Curren Chan, likely gearing up to defend his title in the Group 1 Sprinters Stakes on Sept. 30.
And speaking of the Sprinters Stakes, that is the third-last leg of the Global Sprint Challenge, which requires a horse to win three races in three different jurisdictions to qualify for a $1 million bonus. The only likely candidate to do that is Hong Kong-based Little Bridge, who won the King's Stand Stakes in England and is entered in the Sprinters Stakes. Should he win there, he could qualify with a third win in either the Patinack Farms Classic in Australia or, more likely, the Longines Hong Kong Sprint at Sha Tin in December. Black Caviar, who won the Diamond Jubilee Stakes at Ascot and the Coolmore Lightning Stakes in Australia, is not expected to contest any of the remaining legs of the series.
It's a long trip from Southern California to Bossier City, La., only to find your top rival is one of those you met back home. That's the story for Blueskiesnrainbows and Rousing Sermon, who finished first and fourth in the Grade II Swaps in July and now are the favorites for Saturday's $500,000, Grade II Super Derby. Also in the mix in the field of nine is Bourbon Courage, who finished second in the West Virginia Derby.
Sunday's $200,000 (Canadian), Grade III British Columbia Derby at Hastings Racecourse is unlikely to impact the Breeders' Cup but promises to be a nice race, with an overflow crowd of 13 entered. Six other stakes, including the $100,000 (Canadian) British Columbia Oaks, support the Derby.
New York action returns from its late-summer Spa holiday with Saturday's $200,000, Grade II Bowling Green Handicap kicking off stakes action at Belmont Park. The 10-furlong grass affair drew a field of five. Air Support finished second in the Grade I United Nations at Monmouth two starts back. Brilliant Speed was third in the Grade I Sword Dancer at Saratoga in his last start. Newsdad won the Grade II Pan American at Gulfstream Park and most recently was fourth in the Sword Dancer. Brujo de Oileros makes his second U.S. start for trainer H. Graham Motion after arriving from South America. Bombaquia steps up from the allowance ranks and Redeemed is in only if the race is taken off the turf.
Turf Sprint
Jazzy Idea rallied from last of nine to win Wednesday's $100,000 Jameela Stakes for Maryland-bred fillies and mares by 3 lengths in course-record time of 1:07.45. Luis Garcia was aboard the 3-year-old Great Notion filly, who was the favorite despite taking on elders. Colony Club finished second and Queen Chatanika finished third. Owner-trainer Edwin Merryman said Jazzy Idea will make her next start in one of the Maryland Million races on Oct. 6 at Laurel. "I believe she's as good on the dirt as she is on the grass," he added.
Turf Mile
A nicely balanced field of 10 graces Saturday's $100,000 Japan Racing Association Stakes at Laurel Park. Eighttofasttocatch, Tonto Fontenot, See Tobe and Action Andy all are listed among the favorites on the morning line.
Dirt Mile
Friday's $250,000 Presque Isle Mile drew an overflow field, also including Bergerac, Jimmy Simms, Eternal Rule and Alma d'Oro. South American import Brujo de Olleros and Canadian stakes winner Hunters Bay were entered but withdrawn to race elsewhere.
Remember Comma to the Top, second in last year's Santa Anita Derby but 19th at Louisville? He's been slowly working back into form in California and rallied three-wide into the stretch in Wednesday's $85,000 Pirate's Bounty Stakes at Del Mar, then went on to win by 1 3/4 lengths over Mensa Heat. Sequoia Warrior finished third. Comma to the Top, a 4-year-old Bwana Charlie gelding, ran the 6 furlongs on the all-weather track in 1:08.71 with Martin Pedroza up. In his last previous race, he finished fourth behind the California sprint monsters in the Grade I Bing Crosby.
Filly & Mare Sprint
Groupie Doll is the early favorite for Saturday's $400,000 Presque Isle Masters for fillies and mares going 6 1/2 furlongs on the all-weather. A field of 12 is in prospect. Holiday for Kitten and Kitty in a Tizzy also are expected. Groupie Doll will be making her first start since winning at Churchill Downs of Derby Day in near-record time.
Speaking of near-record time, Reneesgotzip just missed the Del Mar record for 6 furlongs while winning Wednesday's $110,000 C.E.R.F.S. Stakes for fillies and mares by 3 1/4 lengths over Byrama. Reneesgotzip, a 3-year-old City Zip filly tackling elders, finished in 1:08.23. The mark is 1:08.17, set last year by Euroears. Reneesgotzip finished second in both the Group I Las Virgenes and the Group I Santa Anita Oaks this spring, then won an allowance at Hollywood Park on May 4 before taking the summer off.
Juvenile Fillies
Sweet Redemption, Gold Edge and American Sugar -- all stakes winners -- top a field of 14 entered for Saturday's $150,000 Arlington-Washington Lassie at Arlington Park. Sweet Redemption's only start was a victory in the $150,000 (Canadian) Ontario Debutante at Woodbine. Gold Edge accounted for the Lisa M. Stakes at Arlington and American Sugar took down the Prairie Gold Lassie. Saturday's race is a one-turn mile on the all-weather surface.
Twelve signed up Saturday's $100,000 Happy Ticket Stakes at 1 mile on the grass at Louisiana Downs. Promise Me More, My Daughter's Song, Fleet Dawn, Lonnie Bell and Misty Swamp finished first through fifth in the Donnie Willheit Memorial over the local turf on Aug. 4 and all return for this heat.
Bob Baffert might have another one in Rolling Fog. The Posse colt dueled his way to the lead in Wednesday's $300,000, Grade I Del Mar Futurity, kicked clear to a daylight lead and won by 1 1/2 lengths over the favorite, Know More. The Iowa-bred former claimer, Scherer Magic, finished third. Rolling Fog, with Rafael Bejarano up, ran the 7 furlongs on the all-weather surface in 1:22.96. He came into the race off a win at first asking in an Aug. 4 maiden event. Baffert assistant Jim Barnes said Rolling Fog "was ready to run when we left Santa Anita. He was one of our top horses when we left Santa Anita but we got down here and worked him a couple of times and he was struggling with the track a bit. We entered him and he got in, then he ran a low-grade fever and we had to scratch. That was probably the best thing, because then we worked him a couple more times and won the first time out. He just kept improving on this track and he really likes dirt, I know that."
Muppet Man, sporting a 2-for-2 record including the $65,000 Meadowlake Stakes last month, heads a field of eight for the $150,000, Grade III Arlington-Washington Futurity at Arlington. The one-turn mile on the all-weather track also attracted Stormin Monarcho and Urban Renewal, both stakes-placed.
Trainer Mark Casse entered three of the five set to go in Sunday's $150,000 (Canadian) Swynford Stakes at 7 furlongs on Woodbine's all-weather track. Among them is Uncaptured, who is undefeated in three starts including the Clarendon Stakes and Vandal Stakes. Platitude won at first asking and is making his second start. Brilliant Comet is a first-timer. Dan the Tin Man was sixth in the Saratoga Special last time out. Five Iron comes off a maiden win.
Juvenile Turf
Dry Summer rallied by the dueling leaders at the end of Wednesday's $100,000 Oak Tree Juvenile Turf at Del Mar and won by a neck over Power Broker. Caught Napping rallied late from well back to finish third. Dry Summer, an Any Given Sunday ridgling, ran the 1 mile on firm turf in 1:35.16 under Joe Talamo. Trainer Jeff Mullins said he decided to try Dry Summer on the grass mainly to avoid butting heads with another of his 2-year-olds. But he noted Dry Summer "has a little grass pedigree and with his style and his mind, as you can see, he's just a real quality horse who doesn't make any mistakes."
Brown Almighty, undefeated in two starts, is among 10 signed on for Saturday's $150,000 Sunday Silence Stakes at Louisiana Downs going 1 mile on the grass. The Big Brown colt broke his maiden at first asking at Arlington, then won the Sunny's Halo over the local oval. Mr. Bandini's Band was second in the Sunny's Halo and then second in the Louisiana Cup Juvenile three weeks ago. Unbridled's Score was third in the Sunny's Halo. The others would seem to need to move up a notch.
Kentucky Downs is running Saturday and Monday. If you haven't seen the old Dueling Grounds course near the Kentucky-Tennessee border, it's worth a trip.
Parx Racing has five interesting sprints for Pennsylvania-breds on Saturday.

Fresh off his big $10,000Â Design By Humans win, Christian San Jose (aka csj89) sat down to talk with me about his winning design Mecha-Labaw, the stress of competition and the power of social networking and good old hustle.
1. Congratulations on winning the Design By Humans $10,000 contest!It's been about a 2 month wait since the start of the contest – what has your anxiety level been like during the last couple of weeks?
Thanks Coty! It was really a roller-coaster experience, from the joy I got because of all the support by friends and people that liked the design, to all the stress that came from thinking of new ways of promoting it, even the anxiety that each new round (and the consequent vote reset) brings. I barely slept in August, because if you stopped promoting, there's a big chance somebody will get ahead.
2. What was your reaction when you found out you won?
My initial reaction was a huge sigh of relief that it was all over. But that didn't take long, I jumped around and screamed a lot too. I was at my day job with all my officemates awaiting the countdown, and everybody cheered loudly when it was finally announced. I think I high-fived about 30 people, even the CEO who didn't know what was happening.
3. What was your inspiration for Mecha-Labaw? What did you try and accomplish with this design?
I came up with Mecha-Labaw because I wanted to do an illustration that had something to do with my country. I came across a large water buffalo photo, and I always wanted to draw something intricate and robotic or mechanical which I haven't done before. So it all came together with the artwork. It became an artwork in honor of a national symbol in the Philippines.
4. The final two in the DBH 10K came down to you and AJ Dimarucot aka collisiontheory, the reigning 10K champion. Did you feel like you had a good chance at upsetting AJ and winning it all?
Honestly when the contest was nearing its end, I already had my mind set that there's no chance I'd win over AJ. Since the votes were hidden, I based my thought on the comment count and at the time, I had over 400 comments, and AJ's sub was close to around 700. During the most part though, I never stopped asking for votes despite the little chance. AJ and I are good friends and colleagues outside of DBH, we're even neighbors, and I closely followed his win last year – how he continuously promoted his design and got votes from everywhere. I followed his plans from last year (newspaper and web ads, giving away design resources), and added schemes of my own. Last August, I did 4 seminars discussing graphic design and t-shirt culture in schools and organizations, and after each talk, I had a chance to promote Mecha-Labaw and ask for help. I also included Mecha-Labaw in two group exhibits I was apart of during the voting process. I also work full-time as a web designer in an Internet Marketing company, so that experience helped me in brainstorming and coming up with the landing page for voters – www.mechalabaw.com, and the placement of promotional blog entries in high traffic websites.
5. You really pushed hard at promoting Mecha-Labaw. At what point in the contest did you think, "geee, wouldn't be great if I actually set up a website just to promote Mecha-Labaw?" Was the website something you knew you wanted to do from the start?
It was a plan since the very start of the contest, the site was done right after I submitted Mecha-Labaw to DBH, and it was made public just after the announcement of the Top 20. I planned and scheduled all my promotions days ahead of the submission, and at first it was supposed to be hosted at www.csj89.com/10k/ so I could easily spread the link around, but that link was already hard to remember. The direct DBH link was also long and hard to remember, and previous DBH experience dictates that some new DBH visitors get lost when presented with the direct vote link. They didn't know if they had to register first, where the vote button was and whatnot. I made a landing page with a memorable domain name to make the vote process as easy and smooth as possible. I also included a shirt give-away raffle promo for anyone who re-blogs, for incentive. The site was hosted on the same server as my portfolio (www.csj89.com), and the new domain name was just $9. Not a bad price considering all the help it provided. I wish I could show you the old piece of paper I drafted all my initial promotional ideas on but I can't seem to find it now.
6. Are you satisfied with final colorway that Design By Humans decided to go with for the Mecha-Labaw print?
Very satisfied on my part, I love the colorway they chose. Some of the buyers want lighter choices though, it's all up to DBH if they decide to print it again.
7. Finally, I think most people are interested to know how you're going to spend/use the cash prize?
I'll give $1000 to charity, buy a Macbook, and keep the rest of the money in the bank for future savings.
Thank you very much Coty for this interview, and again I'd also like to thank everyone who supported Mecha-Labaw in the contest

When an item is coming due, an attempt will be made to renew it automatically from the previous due date for another full borrowing period (three weeks for most items, one week for DVDs).
An item can be renewed a maximum of three times, unless another patron has an active hold on it.
You can return items to any Hennepin County library, regardless of where you checked them out.
Book drops are available at all locations. Materials returned in the book drops are considered returned on the date that the accepting library was last open to the public. Some materials may not be removed from your library account until the library's next open day.
You can use a book drop without leaving your car at these locations:
Most Minnesota libraries will accept returns of Hennepin County materials. Items returned to libraries outside of Hennepin County will be removed from your account when they are received back at Hennepin County Library. Your account will be updated using the return date from the library that accepted your materials. If you get overdue notices, do not renew them, as this may incur unnecessary fines.
It is important to keep contact information up-to-date to receive account notifications. Ask Us to update your email address or phone number or to change notification method.
Email only. If you would like to turn this notification off or on, please Ask Us.
Three days before you have items due, you will get an email that lists items that are due soon and items that were automatically renewed (with the new due date).
This is an optional courtesy notice. If the email fails to be delivered, you are still responsible for fines on items returned late.
Email or phone. Ask Us if you'd like to change notification method.

Fees and fines of all types remain on your account until paid.
If you think the item may be found, we recommend discussing options with staff before paying the nonrefundable fee.
A nonrefundable fee will be charged for items that have not been returned and are overdue more than 20 days. The fee is based on the average cost for items of that kind, not the exact cost of a particular item.
Instead of paying the non-refundable fee, you may be able to supply the library with a replacement copy (certain rules apply). Please contact library staff before purchasing.
Use interlibrary loan (ILL) only to request items that are not owned by Hennepin County Library.
If Hennepin County Library doesn't own an item, you can use MNLINK to request an interlibrary loan from academic and public libraries throughout Minnesota. If you can't find it in MNLINK, Ask Us.
There's no charge for interlibrary loan service, except for some microfilm requests that require pre-paid fees.
You can have up to 15 active ILL requests per patron. Requests are active from the time they are placed until the item has been returned to a Hennepin County Library and checked in by the ILL department.
Lending libraries may decline to lend any item and may limit the number of times they will send an item. Items previously borrowed through ILL may not be available again.
The loan period is three weeks.
Most requests are filled in two to three weeks. Some take longer due to demand for the item, how widely it is held, and delivery schedules. You will be notified by email or phone when the item is ready for to pick up.
ILL items can sometimes be renewed, at the discretion of the lending library. Please Ask Us by phone, email, text, or in person several days before the item is due if a renewal is needed. Patrons are responsible for any fines and/or fees incurred due to the loss or damage of ILL materials. Fines for overdue ILL items are $.30 per item per day.
You can cancel a request directly in MNLINK (My Account) or you can Ask Us by phone, email, text, or in person.
See the items in constant demand list for more information about items that are unlikely to be available.
A request for a magazine article is usually filled with a photocopy or scan of the article, which may be mailed or emailed to you. You may keep these photocopies.
You can also request MEDD (Minitex Electronic Document Delivery) delivery of an article. The article is scanned and you are sent instructions for retrieving the document and downloading.
Items on microfilm, especially newspapers, may be requested. Microfilm is for in-library use only at one of the libraries that has microform readers/printers: Minneapolis Central, Brookdale, Ridgedale or Southdale.
Some historical societies require pre-payment for loans.

Sculptural Lamp Designs of Great Aesthetic Value by John Procario
Designer John Procario creates striking lighting objects by bending strips of ash or white oak to the point of breaking. This results into creative irregular shapes that seem to pay more tribute to art than practicability: "The idea for the lamps began by thinking of wood as a metaphor for the body. Wood will bend comfortably to a point, then break; just like a bone or muscle, wood has its limit", explained the designer.
Due to the "limits" in every material he employs, no two lamps are the same. The method used to create the final versions is steam bending, a process where thin strips of wood are placed into a steam box, making their fibers pliable. Then it is up to the designer to manipulate the strips and laminate them together to form a rigid object. A LED strip is further glued to the product and added Plexiglas to diffuse some of the light.

This numbered edition Throw Pillow, designed by InkyFloy, comes with a numbered and signed certificate of authenticity. Made from 100% spun polyester, filled with a soft faux down insert, and closed with a concealed zipper. No matter which way you turn it, this double-sided pillow is the perfect accent to any living space.
Ink wash style art has a very powerful visual effect that suits in everyday life, but also it has the meaning of grey, dark and white forces playing on the surfaces and telling a story.

Sans Hill…again
NEW YORK — Aaron Hill was still out of the lineup for the Blue Jays on Wednesday night. But, did you know that apparently it's allowed for Toronto to use the same lineup two days in a row? Yeah, I know, I wasn't sure if that was legal or not, either.
And get this, the lineup used tonight is actually the fourth time this particular lineup has been used this season. Of the 49 lineups used this season, that makes this starting nine tied for th emost often used order…and it's without the Jays' starting second baseman.
The other most often used lineup is the one that opened the season: 1. David Eckstein, SS, 2. Matt Stairs, LF, 3. Alex Rios, RF, 4. Vernon Wells, CF, 5. Frank Thomas, DH, 6. Lyle Overbay, 1B, 7. Aaron Hill, 2B, 8. Marco Scutaro, 3B, 9. Gregg Zaun, C. Remember that one?
Today's lineups:
TORONTO (32-28) at NEW YORK (28-30)
at 7:05 p.m. ET at Yankee Stadium
Shannon Stewart, LF
Marco Scutaro, 2B
Alex Rios, CF
Scott Rolen, 3B
Matt Stairs, DH
Lyle Overbay, 1B
Rod Barajas, C
Brad Wilkerson, RF
David Eckstein, SS
PITCHING: RHP Jesse Litsch (7-1, 3.18)
Johnny Damon, LF
Derek Jeter, SS
Bobby Abreu, RF
Alex Rodriguez, 3B
Hideki Matsui, DH
Wilson Betemit, 1B
Robinson Cano, 2B
Jose Molina, C
Melky Cabrera, CF
PITCHING: RHP Mike Mussina (8-4, 4.26)
NOTES: RHP Brian Wolfe was activated from the 15-day disabled list and optioned to Triple-A Syracuse; SS John McDonald began his rehab stint with Class A Dunedin and will need around a week, perhaps less, of games before returning to Toronto; Zaun played catch and hit prior to Wednesday's game to further test his injured right elbow; Hill (concussion) took part in pregame drills.

Yea I had a feeling that Litche wasn't going to do that well tonight or atleast not last that long. A strike thrower as he is and a taking alot of pitches and only swinging at strikes like the yankess lineup is, goes in favor to the yankees. Litche will definetely have to improve on this in the future.

Primer design: free energy - (Nov/13/2009 )
I am new to primer design. I used OligoCalc to check my primers for self-complementarity and one of the sections gave me the thermodynamics of the primer. Does anyone know what the parameters/ranges are for the deltaG, deltaH, and deltaS?
you can also use oligo to check the formation of primerdimers and primerhairpins: herefore in the case of primerdimer, the deltaG has to be higher than -5 kcal/mol for 3'end and higher dan -6 kcal/mol for internal. For hairpins, the deltaG must be higher than -2 kcal/mol for 3'en en higher dan -3 kcal/mol for internal hairpins.
Thank you

Clearly better than a season ago, Pac-12 Conference basketball still hasn't made the case that it belongs with the elite.
Progress is obvious: Unbeaten Arizona is ranked No. 3 nationally and UCLA has won five in a row, including a victory Saturday against then-No. 7 Missouri.
A year after the Pac-12 went 0-11 in nonconference play against Top-25 opponents, the league is 6-14 vs. ranked teams.
But there also is evidence of lingering vulnerability: Pac-12 home losses to Towson State, Cal Poly, Albany, Sacramento State and Harvard.
"Arizona is very good," Cal coach Mike Montgomery said. "UCLA is potentially very good. I think Oregon is legit."
And the Bears, who were picked third in the Pac-12 preseason media poll?
"Until we get healthy," Montgomery said, "we can't say we're with the upper echelon teams."
Here's how we envision the Pac-12 race unfolding:
1. Arizona (12-0): One of four unbeaten teams in Division I, the Wildcats are loaded. They have depth, experience and a great freshman class, led by Oakland native Brandon Ashley. They shoot well, are improved defensively and have a leader in senior point guard Mark Lyons, the Xavier transfer who made the winning plays at the finish in one-point victories over Florida and San Diego State.
2. UCLA (10-3): The Bruins are young, boast little depth and haven't shown yet they can play coach Ben Howland's brand of defense. But after a couple early stumbles (including to Cal Poly) and two defections (including big center Josh Smith), they have won five in a row. The freshman class is dynamite: Shabazz Muhammad, Jordan Adams and Kyle Anderson have combined to average nearly 57 points the past four games.
3. Colorado (10-2): The Buffaloes are 3-2 against top-50 teams in the RPI ratings and boast one of the top home-court advantages in the West. The backcourt duo of Spencer Dinwiddie and Askia Booker has combined to provide nearly 30 points per game and junior Andre Roberson has 31 career double-doubles. Free throw shooting is an issue and CU must prove it can win on the road.
4. Oregon (11-2): The Ducks are among the deepest teams in the Pac-12 with six players averaging at least 9.2 points, including freshman point guard Dominic Artis of Oakland. They turned some heads early with an impressive road win over UNLV. Otherwise, their tepid schedule raises questions.
5. Cal (8-4): The Bears were tough enough to peg before losing at home to Harvard. Guards Allen Crabbe and Justin Cobbs are the league's highest-scoring duo, but backcourt injuries are chipping away at Cal's already limited depth. The Bears will be challenged by physical frontcourt opponents and need another scorer.
6. Stanford (9-4): The Cardinal has challenged itself with four games vs. top-50 RPI teams — and lost all four. Junior forward Dwight Powell is having his best season. But guards Chasson Randle and Aaron Bright — both excellent perimeter shooters a season ago — have combined to make just 23 of 101 from 3-point distance.
7. Washington (8-5): The defensive buzzsaw that was UW basketball in recent years is gone. The Huskies, led by junior C.J. Wilcox (18.5 ppg), still can score. But they rank last in the Pac-12 in steals, where they once made their living. The grabber was a home loss to Albany.
8. Arizona State (11-2): Sophomore point guard Jahii Carson has made the Sun Devils better — even if ASU fans had to wait a year for him to become eligible. He has eight games of at least 18 points. Center Jordan Bachynski's 59 blocked shots are more than seven Pac-12 teams have total.
9. Oregon State (10-3): The Beavers have been something of a disappointing tease in recent seasons, unable to deliver after encouraging starts. A home loss to Towson State didn't alleviate those doubts. The Beavers entered play Monday with an embarrassing RPI strength of schedule rating of 340. Their issue: defense.
10. USC (5-8): The Trojans have played the Pac-12's toughest schedule, but have been devoured by the likes of Illinois, San Diego State, Minnesota and New Mexico. The top players are all transfers — Eric Wise (UC Irvine), Jio Fontana (Fordham) and J.T. Terrell (Wake Forest). Is cohesiveness an issue?
11. Washington State (9-4): The Cougars have won seven of their past eight, dropping only a two-point decision to regional rival Gonzaga. Senior Brock Motum has scored at least 23 points in five of the past seven games. But there isn't enough else here.
12. Utah (8-4): The Utes are getting better, but they had so far to climb. They will rely on defense and hope that freshman forward Jordan Leverage continues to improve.

The Filibuster
Obama/Biden is hardly the Cabrera/Fielder combination it once was. Should the president drop Joe?
Aaron T.
Woodbridge, VA
Apparently the VP's comments about the big banks putting "y'all back in chains" under a Romney administration have set off a firestorm of criticism. Of course the Romney campaign indignantly declared this a new low in an election that will surely reach entirely new lows over the next few months. But if you take a step back, none of this should really come as a surprise. It's just Biden being Biden.
Anyone who follows politics knows that Joe Biden is a walking gaffe machine. I mean, this is the man who famously referred to the future President as "articulate and bright and clean." At least this time he's pointing his rhetorical weapons of mass destruction at the other side. And let's be honest here, that's part of the reason why Obama brought him on board as VP in the first place. It's also one of the reasons why there's absolutely no reason for the President to drop him now.
Honestly, Biden's moment last week was a godsend for the Obama campaign. It followed news of the Paul Ryan pick, a moment that was supposed to change the election debate to matters of the economy and the budget. Instead, the press and everyone else is talking about Biden's statement. Add in that it fires up an important part of the Democratic base, black Americans, and I really don't see where this is hurting the Obama campaign at all. Biden's "gaffes" often serve to humanize both him and the President he serves. They also give the campaign a way to say something while still claiming plausible deniability. "Hey, we didn't ask him to say that. That's just Biden being Biden. However, now that you mention it…." Sounds like a winning strategy to me.
More than that, though, Obama has no desire to get rid of Biden because Biden is the guy who turns the Obama strategy into reality. You think the Affordable Care Act gets passed without Biden making calls and twisting arms? You think "Don't ask, don't tell" gets repealed without Joe putting in some face time? Sure, sometimes he may force the President's hand, like with his comments on gay marriage, but is that such a bad thing? Here's an even better analogy. Biden is COO to Obama's CEO. And trust me, being CEO without an effective COO is a painful proposition. Just ask George HW Bush about that one.
Should Obama drop Joe? Hell no.

Boundless, the textbook-free option for students, started the next chapter of its service this week by coming out of private beta and opening its online doors to the world.
After a year of working with students at more than 1,000 schools, the Boston-based company's expansive content library is now open to any student who signed up for Boundless. The service connects students with openly licensed, and free educational content content on the Web, with the goal of helping students save money on textbook costs. Boundless covers topics like biology, psychology, and economics, as well as newly added options like sociology, American history, writing, and physiology.
Despite all of its good will toward the education world, Boundless hasn't launched without at least a few roadblocks.
In late March, the company was sued by three of the world's largest publishing companies for alleged copyright infringement. With $8 million in funding just raised, Boundless fought back against its competitors, which it blamed for the high costs of education.
"Don't worry – we won't let the fact that someone slipped a lawsuit in the punchbowl ruin our good time," the company said in an April blog post. "Boundless is committed to bringing educational content into the 21st century, and we remain focused on our mission."
That mission is moving forward, bringing Open educational Resources (OER) from WikiBooks, OCW Consortium, MIT Open Courseware, Creative Commons, and others to its Web and mobile platforms. The new Boundless includes improved navigation, highlights and notes, and full HTML5 and iPad capabilities.

The New Mexico State Department completed its grant in September 2000. The project was designed to implement and expand character education in the state. New Mexico's project supported the collaborative partnership model developed from 1994-99 that demonstrated dynamic and aggressive action could bring about change in our communities. New Mexico utilized this opportunity to build upon its successes and to further refine models for replicating these collaborative activities within the state. The New Mexico project is based on the six pillars of character. The following activities were undertaken:
Advocate for character education in New Mexico communities by building on existing partnerships and expanding partnerships;
Build statewide capacity through leadership; and
Use the language and philosophy of "CHARACTER COUNTS!" as a vehicle to support schools and communities in character development and provide a focus for their activities.
Results of this project include: growth in the number of schools and communities addressing character, effective school/community partnerships, and the formation of a statewide organization committed to CHARACTER COUNTS! in New Mexico.

The city of Pittsburgh boasts the most bridges in America – indeed, in the entire world, having recently surpassed even the canalous city of Venice, the previous record holder with 443 piered bridges, by three. The so-called Underdark of most bridges seems thick with potential occult wonders, from the Freemont Troll in Seattle, to Golden Gate's infamous ghost-ship, the S.S. Tennessee (a bridge, incidentally, with over 1300 confirmed suicides). A Pittsburgh dwelling friend of mine recently noted: "Our bridges could use some trolls under them." Upon reflection, I must say that I totally agree.
The bridge is perhaps one of the darkest symbols of the desperate soul; a unifier of two otherwise moated masses of land, regardless of which, still serving as the morbid mortar pedestal from which all the most hopeless mortals fall. There's something almost palpable in the grim catching grounds of these broken and sometimes soggy dreamers, yet it also sometimes seems like the last place left unmolested by the break-neck pace of our ever looming rat-race, in the bohemian romantic bosom of these mostly black and gold Gothic arches.
Urban exploration becomes less and less common as we all begin to feel less and less free to explore and enjoy our environments, although such darkness has always provided various measures of liberty and support to the brave. Whether you're bungee jumping off of the 230 foot high George Westinghouse, angling in the Mon for one of those 10ft long, 300 lb, Gator Gars, or simply scoping out the grappling hook trails, bouldering walls, and ladder nests nestled under countless other bridges, there's a rich sub-rosa world hiding under all of these monolithic crossroads that's just waiting for a renegade like yourself to seek it out and draw it all in.
Today might mark the unceremonious end to the wintery occupation of Melon Park, but under our bridges, bandied about around our best bonfires, in the secret hidden chambers of the homey squats we might one day hope to haunt, there is another occupation brewing. I call upon this cities libratory sorcerers, street artists, underground party promoters, guerrilla gardeners, anarchist architects, free-runners, urban explorers, hideout deprived superheroes, labless mad scientists and the Neo-ziganist courts of occult readjustment to join me, on behalf of the last few remaining freeholds and the fading forces of the fairy moot, as we Occupy the Underdark.
We might text brief explanations for these Underdark Occupations done through urban explorations of the 'burgh: Going Ghostbusting, C.H.U.D. Spotting, or on a Werewolf Hunt or Run, on Troll Patrol (446 to go), or seed bombing a Guerrilla Garden. On the slopes we can climb all those steep Dragon Lines to where the fires of Bandi overwhelm, and with a brave shamanism of even greater precision we'll stencil gateways into sundry realms. I'll be in touch.
On November 17, 2009, I officially incorporated the non-profit organization that I work for today, although I had begun developing a rhetoric-based martial art as early as 2003 under a completely different name. By that point I had already obtained extensive training in Mediation, Hypnosis, Social Engineering, Taekwondo, Boxing and Kung Fu, and it was in that year that I started writing my "Malakimae Manual" (pronounced Muh-LA-ke-may, an Arabic neologism meaning 'Angel Boxing'), which would later be revised into a far less strange, and thus far more marketable, form. (You see, I also studied a great deal of more esoteric subjects as well, like Angelology, Hermeticism, Gnosticism, etc. but all of that was white washed out of what would eventually become the far less controversial "Art de Conflit" which exists today. I assume my reason for such subtly is obvious, but if not, I'll attempt to further clarify all of that bellow.)
I went back to school to write most of it, doing honors projects and independent studies to develop a more functional taxonomy of logical fallacies than I had been presented with in my Intro to Basic Reasoning classes and to explore the physiology of mind-reading via the work of psychologists like Antonio Demasio and Paul Ekman. I even took anger management classes just for the applicable psychology. The chapter on the ethical arts took the longest to finish, and it's still pretty brief, but I probably don't need to bore you with all of these minor details.
Before this original manual was even finished I had already begun collecting students and organizing working groups to continue my training in various related arts, and, for almost 7 years between the beginning of 2003 and the end of 2009, I openly advertised and taught the uniquely esoteric martial art of Malakimae.
However, I rarely mention Malakimae anymore, at least not to total strangers; I do so now simply because I'm attempting to re-organize, to clarify my true goals, and decide upon new strategies and battle plans, by presenting a clear and straight-forward picture of exactly how all of this started. So, if I'm completely honest, I'd say that this really started just before my 21st birthday, when I was badly beaten in the middle of Murray Ave by two police officers. That, the lies they told in their police reports, the lawyers who told me that no one would ever believe my word over a cop's, and the long and drawn-out trip through the justice system, changed me quite a bit. It was a moral wake-up call and it led to some sobering realizations about my true place, and purpose, in the world.
I created Malakimae out of a very real desire to create angels out of men; later another art had to be created as a front for this one, so that I didn't instantly alienate all of those countless unimaginative people who are possessed by far too rigid notions of what constitutes an "Angel." Within the modified language of my new and somewhat sanitized program, I was attempting instead to train "Private Diplomats," yet I've recently come much closer to my original mark with the apparent success of my new Superhero classes. Unfortunately, once more it would seem that the cognitive bias of functional fixedness severely limits my ability to market this new concept to anyone other than children, but I'm not complaining; at least I've finally found a market and a label that serves my original intentions.
Please forgive my uncharacteristic lack of tact. I know I'm handing you a great deal of unrestrained "MUhuhahaha" and I hate the idea of losing your talents or interest because I've been too indelicate or indiscreet in how I've presented all of this. As I've said, I just think that it's essential that, if only occasionally, I reconnect with my original motivations and plainly express exactly what sort of changes I'm trying to make in the world, and, of course, in myself.
What I'm trying to say is that my experiences with Malakimae have taught me the surprisingly strict need for discretion, even, if you will, dissimulation, if one wishes to win any significant degree of success in "the World" as it is currently ruled in so many places. A friend of mine recently paraphrased a relevant social commentary, originally made by a man-hating radical named Valerie Solanas, who pointed out that while most men near the bottom want to rise up and become the man on the top, all a man on, or even near, the top wants is to preserve the status quo.
I agree completely, and I'll go even further to say that those who therefore hide, or even simply attempt to soften, their perceived threat to the status quo will meet with far less knee jerk opposition to their struggles to lift themselves, or even others, up, rising far higher than they would have if they had failed to heed such prudential wisdom; that's provided, of course, that they don't forget, as many cowards do, to attempt to rise at all.
However things turn out, my first priority is always to maintain the day to day operation of a life where I can continue to train and educate the next generation of those who will one day be able to transcend their fears and confusions, not to mention those which have been foisted upon them, and do what's right. I don't care what I have to call them as long as they can accomplish that noble end.
Many of you are reading this because you've been Facebooked into the Malakimae Academy's new "secret" online forums and I felt that you deserved some additional explanation. What you do from here is entirely up to you, but I do hope that you choose to stick around to be at least bear witness to what comes next. Maybe you can even be the first one on your block to become a bona fide agent of this strange secret society of angels and their alleged allies. Good Luck and Namaste.

The Hollywood trophy season revs up when the 73rd Annual Golden Globe Awards are handed out at the Beverly Hilton Hotel on Sunday, January 10.
The event—telecast live on NBC from 8 p.m. ET/5 p.m. PT—honors the year's best and brightest from the big and small screens and is hosted once again by comedian and actor Ricky Gervais.
Think you know your Globes trivia from your Oscars minutiae? Check out these little-known facts about Hollywood's biggest party:
1. The Golden Globe Awards began in 1944 but didn't have a host until 1958, when Rat Pack members Frank Sinatra, Dean Martin and Sammy Davis Jr. stormed the stage and took over unofficial hosting duties.
2. Meryl Streep is the ruling queen of the Globes. She has won eight Golden Globe awards and has been nominated 29 times
3. Each year, Miss Golden Globe assists in handing out the awards on the big night. This year it is Corinne Foxx, daughter of Globe winner Jamie Foxx who won the best actor in a motion picture drama for his role in "Ray."
4. The Golden Globe statuette is plated in 24-karat gold.
5. The Globe statuette weighs in at a whopping 5.5 pounds.
6. Rather than make a traditional acceptance speech in 1999, Globe recipient Jack Nicholson decided mooning the audience would be a much better idea.
7. In 1989, there was a three-way tie for best actress (drama) between Jodie Foster ("The Accused"), Shirley MacLaine ("Madame Sousatzka") and Sigourney Weaver ("Gorillas in the Mist").
8. Due to a Writers Guild strike the 2008 ceremony was cancelled after members of the Screen Actors Guild pledged not to cross picket lines outside of the event. The Hollywood Foreign Press Association replaced that year's party with a televised press conference announcing the winners instead.
9. From 1958 to 1963, the Golden Globes were only broadcast locally in Los Angeles. In 1964, the telecast went national.
10. The youngest ever Globe winner is Ricky Schroeder, who was 9 years old when he won for "The Champ." The oldest winner was Jessica Tandy, who was 80 years old when she won for "Driving Miss Daisy."
11. A Golden Globe? No thanks! Marlon Brando rejected his award for "The Godfather" in 1973 to protest "U.S. imperialism and racism" during the Vietnam War.
12. The ceremony has been held at the Beverly Hilton Hotel every year since 1961.
13. The cost of manufacturing a Golden Globe statuette is approximately $800.
14. Both Renée Zellweger (2001) and Christine Lahti (1998) were in the ladies room when their names were announced to accept an award.
15. Awards are presented across 25 different categories on the night.
The 73rd Annual Golden Globe Awards will air live on Sunday, January 10, 2016, from 8:00 p.m. (ET)/5:00-8:00 p.m. (PT) on NBC.

Olympic ice skating: Medvedeva sets world record, then Zagitova breaks it
Russian ice skater
Evgenia Medvedeva
broke her own world record in the women's short program Wednesday, only to have her compatriot overtake her minutes later.
Alina Zagitova
, a 15-year-old skating prodigy, set a huge score of 82.92 at the
Winter Olympics
, 1.31 points clear of Medvedeva's short-lived world record.
The gold medal will be decided after scores from the short program are added to those from the free skate on Friday, which means it's all but guaranteed that a Russian skater will take the top spot.
For months leading up to the Games, Medvedeva was firm favorite for the gold -- she is, after all, the current World Champion.
Zagitova has come out of nowhere however, only entering international competition last year, and going on to win the European Championships in Moscow in January.
On the official Pyeongchang website, she lists Medvedeva as one of her heroes, along with Russian rhythmic gymnast Alina Kabaeva.
Speaking after the event, Zagitova said she was nervous going into it and "didn't expect" such a big score. She added that, despite it being the "best performance of (her) life," there was still room to grow.
"I could have had more speed going into the jumps, the landings of the jumps could have been smoother, there could have been more emotions," she said.
"The important thing is to show progress with each competition. You need to get better and better."
Medvedeva was sanguine about breaking her own record from the team event -- only to see it smashed minutes later: "I am not chasing after numbers, but after inner feelings. Today I felt better than in the team event, but I still could have had a higher score if the (jump) combination would have been better."
Skating prodigy
While Zagitova has shown why a Gold medal would be well deserved, it would be a heartbreaking loss for Medvedeva, who has laser-focused on these Olympics.
As well as being technically incredible, Medvedeva is also a character. Her world record winning program is built around the theme of "clinical death," and in the past she's courted controversy by skating to a track from "Extremely Loud and Incredibly Close" that included audio from the September 11 terrorist attacks.
On the more cheery side, at an event in Tokyo last year, the self-professed KPop and anime fan took to the ice dressed as a character from "Sailor Moon."
The daughter of a figure skater, Medvedeva began skating aged three, but while her success has brought her parental pride, it's also caused massive nerves, according to the official Pyeongchang Olympics website.
"My mother never watches my performance," Medvedeva told Russian media last year.
"Probably, our connection is so strong that mum's anxiety comes to me even at a distance. That's why we've agreed that she does not go to competitions and does not even watch the live broadcast. It started since I was 13 when I began competing at international junior events."
