El Santo vs. The Vampire Women: Last Res0rt
The creatively spelled Last Res0rt is probably the oddest vampire woman-themed webcomics I've come across. First of all, our main character, who has the unlikely name of Jigsaw Forte, isn't just a vampire woman … she's a furry vampire woman. What sort of animal she represents is not apparent, though most characters here seem to be some sort of hybrid chimera. Second of all, the webcomic takes place in a science fiction setting. Finally, it's a bout a reality show where prisoners have to fight each other for their chance at freedom. So, in summary, it's a sci-fi/horror webcomic about a reality show starring a furry female vampire. And also sailor scouts. It's almost like creator Rachel Keslensky put all her interests into a blender, pressed the "Puree" button, and boom, there's Last Res0rt.
The story starts with Jigsaw applying for the position of "Executioner," who keep the criminals in check during the game (a reality show called "Last Resort"). Cypress, a crocodile lady with pretty hair and the show's producer, has her doubts. Jigsaw doesn't look like much, being a member of a harmless looking species that looks like a cross between a house cat and an Ewok. The only thing she has in her favor is a guitar case, which everyone assumes contains a gun of some sort.
Cypress changes her mind, though, when she catches Jigsaw's extreme case of red-eye. It is not, as you may expect, a result of too much chlorine in the pool, but is one of the surefire indicators of vampirism.
There are other clues. I'll let crocodile lady explain in a very confusingly laid-out page:
Vampires lose their souls when they die, but unlike zombies, they return to life. They're highly aware of this loss, but unlike the Djinn, they have trouble regaining a soul because of their hemophagy.
… They'll show the 'Dead Eyes' in anger. But there's more to it than that; they'll gray up, they'll get muscular… and they turn into little wild animals. They lose their self-control. But the real giveaway? The fangs. If you can get someone to bear their fans at you, you've got definite proof. Living to tell about it is another matter.
This is a tricky set of indicators for a universe populated by anthropomorphic aliens. I mean, dogs have sharp canines. Are they all immediately vampires? Is this why I felt slightly dizzy every morning while our golden labrador grinned goofily at me? I thought it was allergies, but if he turned out to be vampirism, then I feel less remorseful about giving him away.
One of the perks of vampirism is that it induces a berzerker rage. Jigsaw unknowingly uses this to her advantage. As a result, she aces her trial. Despite some very strong objections about allowing someone who is "dead inside" on the show, Jigsaw succeeds in a position among the Executioners.
During her exercise, she meets several of her fellow competitors. These include a fellow cat-Ewok named Slick Giovanni, a big quadruped panther lady who is a princess that hugs people, and some overly pierced human guy named Jason Spades who is supposed to be bad news but is really fooling nobody with that silly goatee.
Spades, by the way, is only this show for a chance to execute Daisy Archanis, a female criminal competitor with a bionic leg and a face of pure butter. (If Ms. Keslensky tells me she likes drawing furries because she has a hard time drawing humans … well… I wouldn't doubt her.) Daisy is also autistic, which means that, unlike the other characters in Last Res0rt, she has a legitimate, psychological reason to run her mouth with gobs of exposition.
In the meantime, Jigsaw's family cheers on while watching the show on TV. Jigsaw's dad vows a more proactive course of action to get Jigsaw off the show. However, since nothing eventful happens on that front, we return to our regularly scheduled program currently in progress.
We move on to the next stage of the show, where each executioner is paired up with a criminal. I suppose this is the exciting twist for this season, like "Petite Models" cycle they have on this season of "America's Next Top Model." Not that I would know. Ahem. Each executioner gets their pick of the criminals to be their partner. The suspense is killing me. Which of these weirdos will be teamed up with Li'l Jigsaw-chan? Despite the yiff-a-riffic potential for a team-up with slick, Jigsaw finds girl power more appealing and teams up with Daisy instead by latching onto her like an excitable 8-year-old. I guess everyone just wants a piece of that bionic leg, eh?
With the partnership set, the duo has to go through the pre-game formalities. There's the part about stripping naked to get fitted for their bodysuits (which is a pretty big deal for some competitors). There's the part where they style their outfits like they were at a Cover Girl photoshoot. And then they pick their team names. Jigsaw and Daisy pick "Team Andromeda." The other teams are named Corvus, Gemini, and the rather unpronounceable Equuleus.
The four teams go on to face their first challenge: facing a squad called the Galaxy Girl Scouts, who are furry versions of the Sailor Scouts. A battle ensues. Daisy, who is rumored to be a former Galaxy Girl, does some metaphysical magic to teleport out of the battle. Qin Xu, a vampire doctor, tends to the injuries. Slick unleashes an efreet to lobotomize one of the Galaxy Girls, who has to be put down after she becomes a zombie. And, in the end, the players triumph over the Galaxy Girl Scouts.
Generally the "Last Resort" producers are happy about the show's ratings spike. (Eh. I would've given the show a C+. The action consisted mainly of folks hiding behind a giant concrete barrier.) They're miffed that some of the prisoners, though, have previously unaccounted powers.
Meanwhile, Jigsaw gains a powerful admirer: some giant horse person with wings. Jigsaw looks really bored at meeting one of the galaxy's godlike beings, but I suppose that's par for the course when alligator people are bossing you around, some fairy creature tells you to put on an ugly dress, and a horse creature walks around calling himself "White Noise."
Notable contributions to the vampire woman genre:
Last Res0rt shows that the idea that vampires have pointy ears is a strong fallacy. Sometimes, their ears are round and elephantine. Also, just because a vampire is furry doesn't mean they enjoy you scratching them behind the ears and giving them belly rubs. While this is not explicitly mentioned in Last Res0rt, I assume it's implied.
Memorable Quotes:
Jigsaw: "I don't wear all skulls and black. Garlic does nothing. I don't even sparkle. So… what am I then?"
Important life lessons:
Autistic people are also psychic. If you find yourself in a room with one, only think happy thoughts around them. Otherwise, there is a very good chance that they might use their powers to turn you into a flower pot.
El Santo's predictions for where this story will go in the span of a year:
On the next episode of "Last Res0rt," Team Andromeda almost collapses after Jigsaw accidentally dismisses Daisy that she doesn't have a leg to stand on… right after telling her about a one-legged woman named Peg. Meanwhile, Jigsaw's dad puts one of his kids in a hot air balloon in a desperate attempt to get on the reality show. (Yes! A balloon boy reference! I am so timely!)

Thanks for the review!~
Yeah, some of the older pages are a little more confusing, but I'm hoping by now I've hammered out enough to make the current / future pages more lucid, and hopefully drawn a whole lot better too.
… and I may have to draw Jigsaw getting scratched behind the ears just to spite you. :-p
wow, that has got to be the most terrible art I have ever seen…anywhere.
What is wrong with all of their faces they are all square, flat and melting
I feel compelled to point out that this review is now a couple years old, and just about everything about the comic has improved even more by leaps and bounds since.
So, how about checking out what you've been missing?
Well, if you don't mind me saying so…
There's some improvement in your art, but it still has a lot of the same problems. Faces and poses just look a little flat and unnatural. I don't know anything about your artistic process, but I think you'd improve if you'd use more references.
Good job on the Mater's, though.
The Master's, that is.
I every time spent my half an hour to read this blog's articles or reviews all the
time along with a cup of coffee.
It's very straightforward to find out any topic on web as compared to textbooks, as I found this post at this website.

The central goal of our research is to understand how oligodendroglial development in the mammalian central nervous system is regulated in health and disease. Specifically, we are interested in molecular and cellular mechanisms involved in oligodendrocyte death as occurring in white matter injuries, such as multiple sclerosis and cerebral palsy. Because in most CNS diseases, multiple cell types including neurons, glial cells and vascular cells are involved via complex interactions, we investigate, at the cellular and molecular level, the role of microglia and astrocytes in modulating oligodendrocyte development, differentiation and cell death. We use a variety of methods including primary cell cultures and transgenic animals to elucidate signal transduction pathways in mediating oligodendrocyte injury.
The second focus of our laboratory is to elucidate the signals that promote oligodendrocyte survival and regeneration/remyelination after injury, and to study cell-cell interactions that regulate remyelination. These studies should contribute significantly to our understanding of mechanisms of oligodendrocyte development and injury, and provide new clues for potential prevention and treatment of human white matter diseases.
Our third research interest is to explore novel roles of vitamin K in the developing brain. Vitamin K is a cofactor for a single known enzyme, gamma-glutamylcarboxylase that catalyzes the posttranslational conversion of glutamic acid to gamma-carboxyglutamic acid in vitamin K-dependent proteins, such as Gas6. It prevents oxidative injury to oligodendrocytes and neurons. Several lines of evidence suggest an as yet identified role of vitamin K in the developing brain. We will use primary cell cultures and transgenic mice to investigate the physiological roles of vitamin K and the carboxylase in the developing brain.

The 2012 CCRI baseball team had an historic season with an excellent 33-13 record, winning the Region XXI and Eastern District Championships to earn a trip to the NJCAA Division II World Series in Enid, Okla. Though the Knights did not win a game, they were one of the top 10 teams in the country finishing the season ranked No. 7 by the NJCAA in Division II. The Knights also received more good news, with sophomore shortstop Marc Dorsi (West Haven, Conn.) earning First Team All-American honors.
Dorsi was named the top offensive player in Region XXI, batting .431 during the regular season with 50 hits, including nine doubles, two triples and a home run while scoring 36 runs with 29 RBI. Dorsi started the season at second base before being moved over to shortstop, which solidified the Knights' defense.
"He is the straw that stirs the drink…as he goes we go," CCRI head coach Ken Hopkins said.
Dorsi led the Knights to their first World Series appearance since 1996.
Other postseason award winners for the Knights included Conor Gleason (North Stonington, Conn.), who earned All-Region XXI honors as the region's top pitcher with an impressive 8-1 record during the regular season with a 1.31 ERA. He struck out 65 batters in 55 innings pitched. Gleason served as the Knights' No. 1 starter and seemed to deliver every time he took the mound in his freshman year.
Also earning All-Region XXI honors was sophomore pitcher Brendan Cabral (Scituate), who had a 6-2 record during the regular season with a 3.83 ERA with 40 strikeouts in 54 innings pitched. Cabral started as the Knights' No. 3 pitcher but stepped up to No. 2 after an injury and become an important part to the Knights' success.
Another All-Region XXI performer was freshman centerfielder and leadoff batter Dylan Gracia (Middletown). Gracia batted .392 during the regular season with 38 hits, including 14 doubles and a triple with 34 runs scored and 16 RBI. He also led all Knights starters with a .491 on base percentage by adding 13 walks, and he was hit by six pitches. His ability to set the table for the middle of the Knights' order was another key to their success.
The final player to earn a postseason award for the Knights was freshman Right fielder Mike Sherburne (North Kingstown) who earned a Region XXI gold glove honor for his stellar play in right field. While playing excellent defense, he also batted .406 in the regular season and led the Knights with seven home runs for the entire season, including two versus UConn-Avery Point in the Region XXI Championship – the most memorable of which was his game-winning bottom of the eighth inning grand slam that sent the Knights to the World Series. Sherburne did not make an error all season, and threw out multiple runners at first base from right field with his aggressive routes to the ball and strong throwing arm.
The Knights will look for another trip to the Division II World Series next year, as they will have four returning All-Region XXI players.

JEFFERSON CITY, Mo. (AP) - A Missouri Senate panel is trying to prevent the enforcement in the state of President Barak Obama's executive orders on gun control.
The committee voted Tuesday to adopt the measure sponsored by Sen. Brian Munzlinger, of Williamstown.
Obama signed 23 executive actions in January, including orders to make more federal data available for background checks and end a freeze on government research on gun violence.
Munzlinger's bill initially would have criminalized the enforcement of all federal gun laws, even those enacted by Congress, passed after Jan. 1, 2013. But those provisions were revised to include only the enforcement of executive orders.
A House committee endorsed similar legislation last week, but that measure seeks to criminalize enforcement of all federal gun laws.
Gun control is SB150

A Woodruff man wanted by police is accused of calling 911 to falsely report a fight as officers arrived at his home to serve a warrant on a sex charge Wednesday, according to an incident report.
A Woodruff man wanted by police is accused of calling 911 to falsely report a fight as officers arrived at his home to serve a warrant on a sex charge Wednesday, according to an incident report.
Anthony Trey Vaughn, 26, of 102 Fairground Road, has been charged by the Woodruff Police Department with second-degree criminal sexual conduct with a minor under 16 and unlawful use of 911, according to arrest warrants.
An incident report states that officers went to Vaughn's home early Wednesday to serve the warrant related to the sex case. Officers knocked on the front and back doors and the windows, but no one came to the door. While at the home, officers were dispatched to a fight involving knives in Kelly Acres. Officers left Vaughn's home to respond to the fight, but found no one fighting in the Kelly Acres area, the report states.
Dispatchers traced the 911 call to Vaughn's cell phone, according to the report. Dispatchers also used cell phone tower information to locate Vaughn within a 1/4 mile of officers.
The officers went back to Vaughn's home. Someone answered the door, but Vaughn was not there. Officers spoke to Vaughn by phone, and he admitted that he made the 911 call to get them away from the house, the report states.
Vaughn said he would turn himself in, and he was taken into custody.
According to another incident report dated Nov. 11, a 15-year-old girl told officers that she had been babysitting for Vaughn. She said on Nov. 4, she wasn't feeling well, and Vaughn told her to lie down, placed his hand on her stomach and then put his hand down her pants, the report states. He also gave her two pills, which he said was medicine to make her feel better, according to the report. The girl told her mother.
Vaughn remained at the Spartanburg County Detention Facility on Wednesday on a $20,500 bond.

WILSON, N.C. – The Barton College women's basketball team completed its regular season Saturday night with an 85-71 home win over Coker College, the 18th straight win for the Lady Bulldogs.
Reigning Conference Carolinas player of the year Esty Flores led three Barton players in scoring with 17 points. Faith Hunter added 16 points, and Janae Jackson chipped in 12 for the Lady Bulldogs, now 21-5 overall and 20-1 in the conference.
Coker, which finished its season at 3-21 overall and 2-19 in league play, was paced by a game-high 21 points from Kiesha Beavers. Henna Koponen added 19 points, and Jasmine Alston contributed 18 points in a losing cause.
Barton, which had already clinched the regular-season title and No. 1 seed for next week's league tournament, led throughout Saturday's contest, scoring the game's first 13 points, seven of those by Flores.
The Lady Bulldogs still led by 12, 29-17, with 7:50 left in the first half, when Coker began a run that would pull the squad within three points on an Alston layup with 3:25 to go in the period. However, Janetta Robinson made consecutive baskets for Barton, the start of a 10-2 spurt by the Lady Bulldogs that extended the lead back to double-digits with just over a minute to play in the half.
Coker pulled within eight points on three different occasions in the second half, but could get no closer. Barton led by as many as 21 points with 4:32 to go in the game.
Barton will host No. 8 seed Erskine College in the first round of the Conference Carolinas Conference Tournament on Monday at 7 p.m.

LONDON, April 4 (UPI) -- Hugh Jackman says he thinks Channing Tatum would make a good replacement as Wolverine.
The 45-year-old actor has previously said it is inevitable that someone will eventually replace him as the X-Men character. When asked about the issue during an X-Men: Days of Future Past press conference, Jackman suggested Tatum.
"I don't know who could play him," Jackman says. "Channing Tatum could probably play him."
"[20th Century Fox] won't retire [Wolverine], I can tell you that right now," the actor asserts. "One hundred percent."
Jackman has appeared as Wolverine in six Marvel films, but told Vanity Fair in December that he is unsure about future movies. The second Wolverine-specific film, The Wolverine, came out in July of last year.
"I am enjoying [Wolverine] more than ever... [but] I don't know whether or not I will do this next movie," Jackman said. "I am really proud of [The Wolverine] and I am excited to develop something with Jim Mangold... but I have a very high expectation of what [a third film] would need to be and if it doesn't reach those, I won't be doing it."
"Jim Mangold and I were literally on the phone last night talking about ideas," the actor continued. "But there is no script and no writer yet so it's a way off."
Jackman will appear as the character in the upcoming film, X-Men: Days of Future Past. The movie debuts in theaters May 23. The actor is currently filming Chappie, set for release in 2015.

Author Notes: If my kids don't like them I don't care who has tested them. LOL. We love America's Test Kitchen and are happy about this challenge. These remind me very much of my grandmother's sugar cookies and somehow no one seems to have the recipe. Maybe memory is better served here. I used a whole vanilla bean and scraped out the seeds. Do not throw away the empty pod. Put it in a quart jar and fill it with sugar. Put a lid on it roll it around and store. Next time you make these cookies or anything sweet that gets a sugar coating, you will have a very special addition, vanilla sugar. I don't like vegetable shortening for the most part but I also know it helps to give a tender chewy crumb, so I used a small amount in addition to the butter. —thirschfeld
Food52 Review: Golden and crumbly around the edges and soft and chewy within, these cookies are gently flavored with real vanilla seeds, nutmeg, honey and just the right amount of salt to enhance the other players without taking over the field. The combination of regular and cake flour, and butter (lots) and shortening (a little -- we used non-hydrogenated) makes for a rich, tender dough that spreads and crisps nicely but doesn't lose all of its structure. We recommend chilling the cookie dough for 20 to 30 minutes before rolling -- it will make your job a bit easier. We used dark baking sheets, so we lowered the oven temperature to 350 so the cookies wouldn't bake too quickly. - A&M —The Editors
Serves: 2 dozen
1 1/2
cups all-purpose flour
cup cake flour
teaspoon baking powder
teaspoon Kosher salt; if you sub table salt, cut it to 1/4 teaspoon
cup sugar, divided
teaspoon nutmeg
vanilla bean, split and seeds scraped
tablespoons unsalted butter
tablespoons vegetable shortening
large egg
tablespoon honey, something with citrus notes is good
cup sugar for rolling the cookies
- Make sure you have an oven rack placed dead in the middle of your oven. Preheat the oven to 375° F. In a mixing bowl combine both flours, baking powder, and salt. Stir it with the measuring spoon to mix.
- Place the sugar, nutmeg, and vanilla seeds into the bowl of a mixer and mix for two minutes to distribute. Turn off the mixer and add the butter and shortening. I use cold butter (when I squeeze it it just gives) because I personally think it creams better. You do not want this to look granular and you don't want the fat to break out and look similar to cottage cheese either.: It should look like ice cream just scooped from the container. Start out on low speed and when the butter starts to cream, gradually increase the speed to medium and cream for about 2 minutes total.
- Scrape down the sides with a spatula. Add the egg and mix to combine. Add the honey and mix briefly.
- Adding the flour in thirds, to keep it from flying out of the mixing bowl, mix at low speed and mix until all is incorporated. Scrape down the sides of the bowl if necessary.
- Place the remaining half cup of sugar into a separate bowl. Line two 12- by 17-inch baking sheet pans with parchment paper.
- Using a tablespoon or a number-40 scoop, scoop out some dough. Using your hands, roll it into a ball and then roll it around in the sugar until coated. Place it onto the baking sheet. Repeat until you have 12 cookies on the tray. Using a fork, flatten the cookies to about a 1/2-inch thickness.
- Place tray into the oven and set the timer for 10 minutes. While they are cooking, roll and coat the remaining twelve cookies. When the timer goes off, check the cookies. They should be browning at the edges but still light in the middle. If they're not, leave them in the oven for another few minutes. Remove them and let them cool for 3 to 5 minutes before moving them to a cooling rack to finish cooling. Place the other tray of cookies into the oven and repeat this step.

Hadley Players Cry Uncle
"Uncle" is the story of a Georgia baker who finds himself the victim of urban renewal. To Uncle (performed by both Zaria Griffin and M. Younger Roberts), his bakery represents his life's work and a part of the community's history since the bakery had served the community throughout the civil rights era.
"Uncle" directed by Henry Miller, marked the Hadley Players return to the St Philip's Community Center, located at 207 West 133rd Street in Harlem, after a long period of renovation. Audiences can find the production every weekend at 7:30 p.m., Fridays and Saturday and at 2:30 p.m. on Sundays until December 14th.
"Uncle" is the story of a Georgia baker who finds himself the victim of urban renewal. To Uncle (performed by both Zaria Griffin and M. Younger Roberts), his bakery represents his life's work and a part of the community's history since the bakery had served the community throughout the civil rights era. As a result of that, Uncle and his wife Millie (Carmen Mathis) did their best to solidify their bakery as a solid entity on the block and as an essential part of history by attempting to gain Landmark status.
Millie is the dough that kneads the family together. Her astute sense of observation allows her to see when some folks are filled with sugar while others aren't all spice; such as in the case of Sam. Sam has proven to be both long time family friend and short-term foe.
In the writing of her play, Eleanor Herman touches on the importance of the past and the need to make room for the new, a delicate balance at best. This is deftly demonstrated between Uncle and his lawyer son (played by Charles Miller and Larry Floyd) throughout the play. Afraid of losing his bakery, Uncle asks his grown son Joseph to return home and help him save his business. Uncle doesn't want change he wants things to remain as they are. Joseph sees the handwriting on the wall and makes alternative plans.
Plans he hopes will not only shore up his father's business and retirement but will enable his father to eventually pass over the reigns to his nephew Hezekiah (Juan Loney) who has been patiently learning the business from his uncle in the hopes of one day inheriting it, preferably in the very near future. Uncle promised his nephew that one day the bakery will be his but in Uncle's mind the nephew is never quite ready. However, not to be deterred and sensing his uncle's hesitancy to let go, Hezekiah cast his eye toward the future and makes preparations to establish a bakery of his own, if indeed, his Uncle, takes too long in passing down the reigns.
William Jay Marshall's portrayal of the slimy scheming politician Sam was right on target as he wiggled, squirmed, lied and charmed his way out of every situation. Sam benefited from the Urban Renewal sweeping through the area thus attempted to con Joseph into some unsavory deals sensing that Joseph was young, ambitious and determined to make a name for himself in political circles. A former childhood friend of Uncle's, Uncle sees the snake that Sam is but unfortunately cannot convince his son there is an asp in their midst.
Suddenly a City inspector shows up at the bakery seemingly determined to find something wrong. Mr. Collins (Kevin Kean Murphy) had inspected the bakery in the past and never found it unfit but this time he insists there are several violations and decides to shut the bakery down a day before Uncle is to go to Court and find out whether he was granted Landmark status. Uncle's refusal to accept the violations ended up getting him arrested by Deputy Blue (Chauncey deLeon Gilbert) the day he was to report to Court.
This play is about honoring the past while making room for the future.
"Uncle" leaves to the audience's determination how gracious one must be in the winning and/or how gracious in the loss. It suggests that one should understand there is a time for everything: a time to hold on, a time to let go, a time to win, a time to fail, a time to wreak havoc and a time to cry "Uncle."
For tickets and further information about the play call 212-368-9314 or 212-360-0799.

So I read a little on BLS and sounded interesting so I gave it a go... I cut a piece of apple and gave it to LO. She gummed and sucked it for a while (seemed really happy) then she snapped a chunk of it into her mouth I couldn't help but freak and stuck my fingers in her mouth to get it out -- bad response? I know the website says babies won't choke but I couldn't help it. For those that are doing BLS or did it, did LO ever choke? Can you describe how you first introduced it?
Also, I have started purees and she's actually been eating it! Well, like a teaspoon probably makes it to her belly She takes hold of the spoon and puts it to her mouth. I feel like I should continue w/ the purees since she seems to like it, could I combine the two types of feedings?

Yesterday, Ol' Myrt here posted To Jump or Not to Jump where I discussed a 1870 census page suspecting that Mary, Margaret, Ann and Emma were polygamous wives of Anson Call, a seemingly wealthy Utah farmer listed as 60 years of age. My caution was to avoid jumping to any conclusion prematurely and I suggested my DearREADERS look at other records that may mention or infer relationships before deciding something is a "fact".
One thing I failed to suggest: the other husbands may simply have been away for very legitimate reasons. As the west developed and Indian skirmishes persisted in what was known as the Utah Wars, those men could have been away serving in the military or fulfilling church assignments. Those assignments could have been lengthy like missionary work, or rescuing stranded wagon trains on the Oregon and Mormon Trails. (At that time in LDS Church history, it wasn't uncommon for a married man to leave his family and serve many years on a proselytizing mission. That was dedication to the cause for both spouses, but I digress.)
Regardless of the reason, the 1870 federal census indicates Anson Call was living next door to several households where women with the last name Call were enumerated as the eldest in their homes.
The next logical place to look is the 1880 census. Fortunately, relationship to the head of household is a feature of that federal enumeration. I located Anson Call at Ancestry.com living next door to many but not all people who were his neighbors in the 1870 federal enumeration.
Source Citation: Year: 1880; Census Place: Bountiful, Davis, Utah; Roll: 1336; Family History Film: 1255336; Page: 276A; Enumeration District: 014; .
Source Information:
When doing research, I frequently use Microsoft Excel to do comparisons. Here's my workup for this Anson Call and his Call "neighbors" scenario. I've color-coded in green those who only appear in the 1870 enumeration, and assigned the peach color to those who only appear in the 1880 census. What we have left in the remaining white cells is my first evidence that Mary, Margaret, and Emma are polygamous wives of Anson. The 1880 lists them all in the same household, but differentiates them by family numbers.
Novice researchers assume the children listed under each wife are her children, however competent genealogists recognize relationships of children to mothers in this case must be identified thru additional research. Along this same line, there is no explanation as to why Anson's son Byron Call (16 in 1880) and daughter Louisa (12 in 1880) weren't listed in the 1870 at age 6 and 12, respectively.
Even if a document lists a relationship, we must attempt to find additional evidence to support or refute that info.
Some of Anson's children in the 1880 census were too young to have appeared in the enumeration ten years earlier.
By 1880, several children listed in the 1870 had reached marriageable age, so I am not surprised to see them missing from Anson's household. I also expected to see Anson's supposed wife Ann at age 63 on the 1880 census, but it may be that she had passed away between 1870 and 1880.
I wouldn't limit my research to federal census records. It is time to branch out to other surviving record groups from the Bountiful, Davis, Utah area. I probably won't dig deeper on this line, since it is on my father's first wife's family. But I appreciate having these two census records for illustrating my points.
Do you use a worksheet or table as Ol ' Myrt here has done? Have you found a better way to compare and contrast info when working through genealogical problems?
Happy family tree climbing!
Myrt :)

What? – Auditory Processing Disorder
August 20, 2014 in Special Education Articles by Jess
The weird thing about the diagnosis of auditory processing disorder is that, although most everyone agrees on the variety of symptoms, the actual testing of it can differ widely. Assessments, and therefore instructive strategies, can fluctuate by state, district, profession and resources, both public and private. The California Office of Administrative Hearings for [Public School] Special Education has over 500 notices of fair hearings with the term Auditory Processing Disorder, meaning that either a parent or a school district was attempting clarification or a decision regarding some aspect of this disorder. Further, the California Speech-language Pathology, Audiology and Hearing Aid Dispensers Board has published a notice-
It is incumbent upon the licensed audiologist and licensed speech-language pathologist to use only diagnostic assessments and therapies that are supported by rigorous empirical evidence. While it is important to conduct research studies on new and emerging assessment tools, such studies should take place within the confines of an approved experimental protocol, and it should be clear to consumers that assessment with such tools is experimental only and provided at no cost. In keeping with B & P Code 651(b)(7), licensees are prohibited from making scientific claims that cannot be substantiated by reliable, peer-reviewed, published scientific studies.

Fig Update....
I am feeling well enough to post an update myself. I had surgery Friday, but I'm feeling much better. I haven't figured out how to get this sticky stuff off of my jaw yet, so I can clean out my sore, but there is still time.
I'm a little high from the pain meds, but this is my last day on them. Mom said something to the effect of me already being a gold lined rat, so she wasn't paying for a pain med addiction too. I'm not sure what that means, but I figured I better enjoy while I could. :)
Mom is giving me this other stuff in yogurt too. She said it was Aunti Biotic's stuff but I don't have an Auntie Biotic, so it must be someone else's Aunty. I just like the yogurt. Mom's says it will make me feel all better, and she must be right, because I already feel like running around and going back to my old condo. I know Georgie must miss me since I am such a sterling roommate, but I have to wait still Mom says. (I don't like the little cage I'm in. I barely have room to stretch out.)
The Vet said I was a little heavy, 1 pound 5 ouces, but I've recently lost weight with my mouth ouchie. Dad said she was right. Mom said I was just big boned. I love my Mom.

text: Brexit: Will UK companies be debarred from EU public contracts? A legal overview on EU public markets Share this 12 MAY 2017 By: Richard Bonnar Recent headlines ("Macron wants British firms frozen out of EU contracts (£)") could have caused a few CEOs to splutter over their cornflakes or croissants. Such a move would provoke a tit-for-tat battle that would impact public service companies and the delivery of public services across Europe. Currently public tendering throughout the EU is ruled by a range of EU legislation (public procurement) aimed at ensuring an open marketplace for public services, with no discrimination and a level playing field. At stake is a 250 billion Euro market for the EU27 and a 100 billion Euro market for the UK, according to a recent EU study. In reality the outlook for UK and EU27 business in this important market is less bleak. Access to the EU27 and UK procurement markets will undoubtedly be an important part of the Brexit negotiations. As yet, the approach of the UK Government is unknown. No one can predict how those negotiations will go or whether there will be a deal at all. Many UK headquartered companies are prominent suppliers to the EU27 and to EU institutions - and vice versa. Indeed, the UK public sector is heavily reliant on suppliers from the EU27 (France in particular) for transport and IT services among others. There is no signal from the UK Government that it wishes to close the UK public sector marketplace or stop UK businesses accessing EU27 marketplaces. That would be at odds with the aspirations of the UK for " forming a new partnership with Europe" and "a stronger, fairer, more global Britain". In addition, the UK Government's White Paper on the Great Repeal Bill indicates that there will be no immediate change to any EU-derived law, including therefore public procurement law. So what are the options? The UK Government will probably wish to agree a bespoke agreement allowing for mutual continuing access to public sector marketplaces. This could be based on the current rules but might come at a political price too high to pay. Alternatively, the UK could look to the General Agreement on Procurement under the WTO. While at the moment the UK is a WTO party through the EU, there are legal niceties about whether it would have automatic membership after it leaves the Union, or would have to apply anew. Under the GPA the UK would have continued access to EU27 markets and vice versa, and would have scope over time (if it wanted to) to move away from EU mandated rules to a system which reflected its own preferences. Neither a 'buy British' nor a 'buy EU' policy would be allowed. Even in a 'no deal' scenario the UK could join the GPA and have continuing access to the EU27 public sector marketplace (and vice versa), albeit under less favourable terms. Some general lessons Looking at this tiny piece of the overall Brexit jigsaw, it is possible to draw some important lessons. Lesson One: legal realities are not the same as political soundbites. The lawyer's job is to present and explain the real legal position. Lesson Two: more detail is needed. At the minute, even legal experts are reduced to 'reading tea leaves' to divine UK Government policy. This makes contingency planning very difficult. Lesson Three: this will be fiendishly complicated to agree with the EU. The UK's withdrawal agreement with the EU (if there is one) will need to address complicated issues like interim access to marketplaces pending a final deal and establishment of new UK tendering infrastructure to replace EU tools. Lesson Four: this will be fiendishly complicated to legislate for. EU derived procurement legislation represents an infinitesimally small proportion of all the EU-derived legislation in the UK. The UK Government has signalled in its White Paper on the Great Repeal Bill that it will 'repatriate EU-derived law but correct it for necessary changes arising from the Brexit process'. But the terms of any changes will depend on the withdrawal agreement and will not be known until late in the Brexit process. Taking the tiny piece of the jigsaw of procurement law as an example, these changes will inevitably be complicated (see Lesson Three) and require careful thought. The risk of a legislative bottleneck is huge. Lesson Five: the devolved administrations cannot be ignored. Under the current devolution settlements the devolved administration in Scotland is responsible for implementing public procurement rules there (as long as they comply with the EU rules). To date there has been almost no divergence between the different approaches in the UK. The Great Repeal Bill White Paper implies understandably that these powers will remain with the devolved administrations. To what extent then will Scotland be involved in shaping the UK deal with the EU on this subject? And to what extent could Scotland choose to diverge from the rest of the UK? Conclusion This is classic Brexit territory. A little obscure but vitally important. A small piece of the overall jigsaw but time consuming and challenging in its own right. CEOs, procurement professionals and lawyers should keep their eyes peeled and make their voices heard. Read DLA Piper's full Brexit coverage.

Item Description
Mysterious, classy and thoughtful. This classical piece is inspired by various modern era classical masters. The piece starts with a haunting piano prelude, it is then joined by some light strings and then the sharp presence of the oboe and the deep sound of the clarinet make themselves clear as the piece culminates then slowly dies off with the piano theme it started with.

Hollatz, David (d. 1771)
David Hollatz (d. 1771) was a Protestant theologian of Pomerania, Germany, author of devotional literature, and pastor in Güntersberg from 1730 on. His books, some of which are still read, were also used by pietistically inclined Mennonites in the Palatinate, chiefly Evangelische Gnadenordnung (Basel, 1894); Gebahnte Pilgerstrasse nach dem Berge Zion (Basel, 1866); and Verherrlichung Christi in seinem theuren und unschätzbaren Blute (Basel, 1894). The Gnadenordnung (with Pilgerstrasse) was reprinted a number of times in the United States, first in Philadelphia in 1810. The second edition was reprinted by the Mennonite printer Heinrich Eby at Berlin, Canada, in 1844 under the title Heils und Gnaden Ordnung.

Any additional comments?
If you like English Who-dun-its.. you'll like this! The characters are human and Ms Perry's mind is inventive. I've listened to all the available audio's in this series and have always been pleased. The only constructive criticism I could even begin to offer, is that the book's endings are always abrupt. Once the crime is solved, that is it! No nice "wrap up" ... but, the stories are great.. characters likeable and crimes ... unusual. Yes, I'd recommend the series.

I really like this book. I actually started with her second book first then I went back to her first book. Her books are definitely not for everyone. Most of the story is about the Victorian era with the mystery as the back drop. So a lot of the story will be dialogue among the people of the household and day to day events. I think some people could find this quite boring it they like the true type of mystery stories or a fast paced story. I thought her second book left a lot of the smaller stories in the book not finished and the story ended abruptly. This book also ended abruptly but with all the smaller stories completed. I discovered this author after reading some of the reviews for Masie Dobbs. I think anyone that like the Masie Dobbs series will also like this type of book and visa versa.

Mary Poppins and friends
Would you say that listening to this book was time well-spent? Why or why not?
Not really time well spent. This book is more about the interaction between the members of a Victorian era upperclass family then about a Victorian era mystery. I would say 85% of the book has lillte if anything to do with the mystery.
Would you recommend The Cater Street Hangman to your friends? Why or why not?
I would not reccomend this book to someone who is looking for a Victorian era mystery because that's not truly what the book is about. It's more about the relationships and prejudices of a Victorian era family.
What three words best describe Christina Moore's performance?
Mary Poppins' sister
Did The Cater Street Hangman inspire you to do anything?
Be more careful in choosing my next audio book. Stop relying on listener's comments that simply say the book was "wonderful" or "marvellous" and start paying more attention to the listener's comments that take the time to actually describe why the listener so liked or so disliked the book.
Any additional comments?
Many people love Anne Perry's mysteries, so I tried this one, and I was very disappointed. I am going to try one more, just because so many others enjoy her books, but if it is another Victorian soap opera, that will be it for me.

Victorian England Mystery
This is the first book in the Thomas and Charlotte Pitt Series. I have almost finished the Monk series set in 1850's London so thought I would try Perry's other series. This one is set in the 1880's in England. I enjoy Perry's stories of Victorian England because she does so much research and places her fictional story into a real scene. I was surprised to learn that it was not acceptable behavior for women to read a newspaper. The father or husband was to read the paper and then read or summarize what he thought was suitable for the women to know. In both of Perry's series she has the woman lead fighting against the restraints that society was placing on women. This book has a series of murders of young women in the Cater street neighborhood where Charlotte lives. Pitt is the investigator on the case and he interviews the Ellison family. The pace of the story is slow with lots of details of family and societal life of the 1880. The suspense builds up as the story goes along. Perry has a excellent command of the English language and builds her plot in an interesting way. Davina Porter narrated the book. She is one of my favorite narrators. If you enjoy this type of mystery stories you will be happy choosing this book..

Reader is Davina Porter not the one listed.
The actual reader is Davina Porter. I am not sure how the staff managed to get the name of the narrator wrong.
This is a good introduction to the Pitt series and in many way I have liked this book best of all. Davina Porter is a superb narrator and I find it unfortunate that many of the later books have male narrators.

Excellent Narrator--Deficient Plot
Once again, Davina Porter (not Christina Moore) nails the characterization of a broad range of characters, but it's not enough to save a tedious plot. The story could have been accomplished with half the murders, for each of which the reader must sit through pages of hand-wringing, finger-pointing, and internal dialogue of doubts and counter-doubts. The classic antagonism between upper-class Brits and the police was also carried to extremes to make that point. I was hoping for a series to keep me going through the fall and winter, but I could barely finish this first volume. Multiple thumbs down.

Great stories
This is my second time through this series. The first time was borrowing from the local library and I am VERY happy to now own them. This first book is exciting and sets the stage for all the others. Love the way Anne Perry writes and without all the sex that many other authors feel the need to add.

Perfect in every respect!
Plenty of intrigue and suspense, romantic without being cheesy or tawdry. Well developed characters and a very well written story line. Delightful all round!

meet Thomas and Charlotte Pitt
If you have not yet met the Pitts, do start here with the first in the wonderful series. These books are marvelous period pieces, but they are so much more. With intriguing characters, the engaging stories are of their time and yet timeless. This book will send you on your way to many hours of happy listening or reading. But do try these recorded versions. The narration by Davina Porter (not by the narrator named in the listing) is excellent. She conveys the necessary changes in characters without ever sounding false. I promise you an enjoyable time.

The slowest "mystery" ever written
To call this a mystery seems a misinomer, its more of a Victorian domestic drama with a police inspector thrown into the mix to stir up the family dynamics. What a disagreeable group of people ! I won't be spending anymore time with them. Even the excellent Davina Porter can't save this.

I'm programming a DFT-based spectrograph, or... spectrogram (I'm not sure what it's called exactly) viewer. But I'm having a little snafu. My approach to selecting which frequencies to test was as follows:
I figured since the data was sampled discretely at 44.1 KHz, I would use samples as a measure of which frequencies to test rather than just using frequency. For example, I would use a period of 1 sample, or 2 samples, or 3, or 4, or 6, or 8 and so forth because it'd be easiest to calculate a sin/cos table which could be reused. That is, using arbitrary periods would require recalculation of the sin/cos values since the table's period would not coincide with the period we'd be testing for.
But, using 1, 2, 3, and so forth only corresponds to testing for 44.1K, 22.2K, 14.7K, and so forth. Granted, speech generally lies within the the bounds of 8 K, but even when the period gets to this using discrete sample boundaries (44.1/5 samples = 8.82K, next 44.1/6 = 7.35) the delta frequency ends up being a whopping K and a half roughly.
I don't wanna miss out data in that range! So what can I do to improve the resolution in that high frequency range? If I could get data sampled at like, 44.1K * 4 that'd be nice, 'cept what software can do that? Or... can my soundblaster compatible even do that? Help!
Thanks a lot!

its weird that I somehow "didnt notice" that, and yet I see how I could take much more profit of the characthers by working into that

damnn, i found your channel on flickr a longg while back and ive been keeping an eye on it since - i love your stuff. you do gorgeous things with moleskines.
so glad to find you on CA
this is great my friend,can you tell us more about your working process,and what kind of synesthesia is asociated with this visual art works,thanks
Jessibelle - Thanks!! Im glad to meet you here aswell, tho i dont know what was your name on Flickr?
Josowicz - Im glad that you ask,
about my process: aint much special usually look through my archive of photos to get a preview of some anathomy or body pose or face that feels like it could be nice and then start working sketches using parts and adding new parts, etc creating a composition, and adding elements
thats pretty much about it im not too good when it comes to techniques, I just do as I think its right but I have no deep theory of "how its properly done",
about the synesthesia that you mention, overall its pretty much a "brain fart", there is for me no deep message, specially for the more concept art oriented pieces, sometimes I do take a grasp on simbolism and abstract concept to strength and idea and suggest some trains of thought but definitely I prefer that everything is open to interpretation,
if we paint ficticious worlds its cool that anybody can still feel like he can live in them without a philosophical pre-step needed to enter
Great work and very inspirational (for me at least) i like your style and the girls you draw, thanks for explaining a bit about your work process.
This is fantastic stuff! Love your daring palette. Thanks for checking out my SB
damn! Love this stuff!
Fallenangel - thanks a lot , hopefully I'll be posting more of the process from now on!

Also, following the advices I recieved here im reworking the background for the "Liz" piece, im posting a progress, its very sketchy thing and Im working on a layer just on top of everything so I go faster, ill create a hole for the fig with a mask once Im done =)
might do a bit deformation on the figure to match the new bg perspective aswell, but im not sure its gonna be needed,
Attachment 1258887
Liz + background rework
Looks cool,
some crit about the pink/purple girl picture (just love that one) i think you should play a bit more with the contrast of the character and the back ground, just to make her "pop out" a bit more.
And here is something that i thing you should give a try:
I't's a "Ballisticpublishing" exotique 7 entries call, give it a try... with some more work spent i think you can compete on that level too.
at the main page my avatar is just blank,he please

Fallenangel - Yes, I had my doubts about that, tried to fix it but indeed it still needs to pop a bit more,
about that link... its definitely interesting, I'm not sure if I have the quality to be there but I loose nothing by trying.. thanks a lot!!
AbsorbenGhost - Sorry mate I think you got to the wrong thread
So I am going to ask a few questions because I really like your stuff:
1. Are those regular moleskine sketchbooks, do they handle watercolor well? I have a Moleskine sketchbook, it got wet and left wet marks. So I am afraid that watercolor would be bad.
2. Do you use photo reference for those girls?
Thank you for reading.

Vay - Hey there, just gonna repply and then im off to bed! (0:03 here)
1.- They are the ones with the heavy pages, with a bit yellow tone, not sure if they got a special name, but as said the pages are heavy
they dont actually handle water too good, because they've used a lot of "celulosa" (thats in spanish.. cellulose?) or silicone something that makes the pages actually a bit water repelling, I guess they did coated the pages that way cause its meant for pencil and graphite (still not the best coating for that) but still that "water-proof" quality of the paper its cool for me its produces different effects even if its technically speaking "doing it wrong"
also there is some kind of moleskine meant for watercolors with proper paper, but its different, instead of book like its in landscape format
2.- Yes, I use references, usually not a "whole girl" I start with a face or a bare body position and then i change the arms, legs etc and look for new references for specific parts of the body if I dont have clear how they are supposed to be.. for example in the piece named "Sacred" I used a full reference for the face, meaning I didnt stray much from the photo but then for the armor and the lancer I went mostly from memory
on "Liz" which is the first image on the thread I went most of it by memory, and now im using references of real castles for the background
So short answer : yes I use references, but I'm trying to avoid just nailing down photos and trying to always add, modify do this kind of "frankenstein" thing so my mind dosnt get too lazy
Good morning,
So I experimented a bit more with the BG on this one
looks better now, I was holding to not break the color scheme of blue/pink but I think it was needed to add more tones so the characther indeed could break from the background and add depth

Let me know your thoughs!! also added a bit of neon glow effect and so

text: The word "movement" often designates a cultural shift of less import than the American Revolution, Great Depression, and other capitalized dramas in history. To be sure, some popular movements have gained broader recognition in the sweep of American history. The abolitionist crusade helped precipitate the Civil War. The quest for female suffrage doubled the electorate, and more, while campaigns for and against Prohibition twice amended the Constitution. And credible historians treat the modern Civil Rights Movement as a sub-division of the Cold War Era (1945–1989). That duel of global alliances contrasted sharply with nonviolent marches for civil rights within the United States, but conflicts over freedom and subjugation resonated between the two arenas. Racial advocacy set in motion democratizing change that seeped into every aspect of American life, and transformed the structure of national politics for decades. Inspiration from the national struggle for civil rights filtered abroad to shore up peaceful revolutions against Cold War regimes from Moscow and Berlin to Pretoria, launching an unlikely tide that delivered miracles to the world on the promise of freedom. Although this broad legacy remains unsettled, and not fully claimed, the movement earned at least provisional status for a Civil Rights era in the United States.More »

OTTAWA (AP) Alex Ponikarovsky provided all the offense Al Montoya and the Winnipeg Jets needed to skate off with a shutout.
Ponikarovsky scored the only goal in the tight goalie matchup between Montoya and Ottawa backup Ben Bishop to lift Winnipeg to a 1-0 win over the host Senators on Saturday.
Ponikarovsky broke the deadlock 5:57 into the third period. The Senators had no answer against Montoya, who made 33 saves in place of ailing Ondrej Pavelec (flu) and posted his first shutout of the season and third of his NHL career.
``The team really battled for me,'' Montoya said. ``I felt for the start of every period we were in control of the puck, and sometimes you want to see shots, but I felt good and I felt comfortable out there.
``I felt like I did everything to prepare for this game.''
Like Montoya, Bishop made just his second start of the season as Craig Anderson got the day off. Bishop finished with 36 saves.
``Ben Bishop was outstanding,'' Ottawa coach Paul MacLean said. ``He really played well, but we weren't even good enough.
``The last 10 minutes after they scored is when we actually started to play. They were way better than us. Montoya played very well for them. We had 80 attempts at the net but we didn't have enough people at the net.''
The Jets did just enough to win.
Kyle Wellwood intercepted a clearing attempt and took a shot from inside the blue line that Ponikarovsky deflected in off Bishop's shoulder and both posts.
``It was a pretty good game, and everyone battled for every inch of the ice. Overall, the guys did a good job,'' Ponikarovsky said. ``We had a couple opportunities to score, but it didn't go in.
``We just stuck with the game plan, and it happened to be me who got the goal, but everyone worked hard. I'm just glad to get the goal for the team.''
The Jets (5-5-1) won for the second time in six games and snapped a three-game road skid.
The Senators (6-4-2) have scored just seven goals in past five games, including four in a 4-3 win over the Buffalo Sabres on Tuesday.
The Senators have lost a pair of 1-0 decisions in that span. Ottawa has allowed only 15 goals in eight games.
Kyle Turris, who leads Ottawa with 10 points, said the team needs to bear down and create more opportunities, especially with No. 1 center Jason Spezza out long term because of injury.
``Collectively, we have to come together and find a way to create offense, put pucks and bodies at the net, and gain more offensive zone time. I have to do a better job of that myself,'' he said. ``We know we can do a lot better, we just have to do it more consistently.''
Goaltending hasn't been a problem for the Senators, who couldn't produce any offense to get Bishop a win.
``When he's playing that well and giving us a chance, we want to help him out, too, and put at least one or two on the board,'' Turris said. ``Andy and Bish are unreal. They're playing amazing and keeping us in games and giving us a chance to win.
``They do a great job for 60 minutes, giving us a chance, so we have to do a better job helping them out.''
The Senators lost Peter Regin to an upper body injury early in the game after he blocked Grant Clitsome's shot. He will be reassessed on Sunday, but MacLean said the injury isn't related to a shoulder problem that has plagued Regin the past two seasons.
NOTES: The Jets entered with the most points from defensemen this season with 34. St. Louis began the day in second place with 31, four more than Ottawa. ... Senators forwards Eric Condra and Colin Greening have both gone five games without a point. ... Jim O'Brien and Andres Benoit were scratched by the Senators. Anthony Peluso and Dustin Byfuglien sat out for the Jets.

Today I released ThingiBrowse version 1.1 for Android. The version 1.0 was limited to only two important Thing categories and had several bugs in the image loading process. Nevertheless, the user feedback was very good for version 1.0 and led to the implementation of search and a better Google TV navigation.
Version 1.1 provides browsing through new categories and even enables searching for Things. I fixed several bugs in the image loading process and introduced a third party image loading library for better performance and caching. Another important user interface change I needed to make was to implement a left navigation and action bar for Google TV, because it was hard to navigate from the list to the action bar.
- browse through the "Featured Things" section on Thingiverse
- browse through the "Newest Derivatives" section on Thingiverse
- search for Things
- optimized left navigation and action bar for Google TV
- optimized image loading and caching
- bug fixes

I was at a coffee shop in Park Slope. You were sitting next to me, talking to your friend about how you're a vegan but you secretly eat eggs. I really wish I had said something to you. Your voice was loud and distracted me from my work.
You: sitting next to your backpack on the Brooklyn-bound L train last night.
Me: super tired, holding onto the rail, standing up.
I asked you to move your backpack so I could sit down. You said you were getting off in "only one more stop." I just nodded and looked away. I don't know if you will ever see this, but if you do I'd love to meet up. Manners are sort of my thing, and I'd love to teach you some.
You were in front of me in line at the Chipotle in Queens. You ordered a carnitas burrito with "no beans, add guac." I still remember this because it took you almost ten minutes to order. You had all the time in the world while we were in line. What were you doing then? How could it take you so long to decide not to have beans? Either you want beans or you don't want beans. It's not that hard. Please e-mail me. I need to understand this.
At the gym parking lot today. You were the hot guy with the soul patch in the Kia Forte. You took my spot. I was waiting for that spot, and you just swooped in and took it. I wish you could have heard me honking at you. Our eyes connected but you just kept walking. If I had the chance to see you one more time, I would roll down my windows and call you a dick.
We made small talk in the checkout line at Trader Joe's. You said that you literally could not live without the salsa you were buying. I wish we could talk again. You used "literally" incorrectly. It really pissed me off. I wish you could literally not live without that salsa, because then I'd take it from you.
Hi. I saw you at the dog park. You had the German shepherd and I had the terrier. If this is you, please message me the name of the park and your address. Your dog was not well attended and I'd like to report you to the proper officials.
Gramercy Park yesterday afternoon. You were wearing a scarf, a T-shirt, thick-rimmed glasses, and cowboy boots. I think that if we met I would find you insufferable.
At a bar celebrating my friend's birthday in midtown. You were wearing Google Glass. I tried to mouth, "You look like a moron." Did you record that?
You were sitting right next to me at an airplane terminal and we were both on our laptops. You were totally hogging the armrest. But when you moved your hand to cough, I took the armrest. You glanced at me angrily. This just happened. Now I can see you writing a post about me online. So I'm doing the same thing. You're still writing. Me too. We can both see each other's laptops as we write. I wish we could just talk in person so I could tell you not to be so passive-aggressive out loud.

The Cape of No Hope
Added Aug 30, 2013
by rachp
Halifax, United ...
The Monthly Stitch collective's August challenge is Capes. I managed to get in just in time with this one.
I was limited by having to sew from my stash, so when I found this khaki suiting I thought it would be perfect for a Military style cape.
I based it on this Burda pattern and added button tabs to give it more of a military look.
I didn't follow the instructions well, so had some trouble with the neck and it ended up a bit uneven!

Your cape turned out really well, I have done the same pattern but the shoulders on mine make me look like frankenstein's monster. Like your button detail and the fabric you used, I used an old heavy weight wool blanket and it just doesn't look right. and the pattern must be for someone 6ft

This track revolves around a catchy riff, that builds right from the start. Full of intertwining, polyphonic rhythms and riffs… it is a lively, vivacious track.
The instrumentation could be considered to be mainly electronic, but there are other elements such as strings, backing up the mellow pads and bass.
