|Multi Gemstone Earrings, Bracelet and Ring
Note: Ruby is the lighter red stone in the ring and the one on top of the citrine and garnet
The gemstone ruby is a corundum or aluminum oxide whose name comes from the Latin word ruber which means red. This gemstone is found in over a dozen countries worldwide including in the United States. Other varieties of gem quality corundum known as sapphires. All natural rubies have imperfections in them including color impurities and inclusions of rutile needles called silk. Gemologists use rutile needles to distinguish natural rubies from synthetics, stimulants, or ruby substitutes that lack silk.
Natural ruby colors include all shades of red including pink. They also have primary hues in addition to its natural color these include a vibrant shade of red called pigeons blood as well as other colors such as orange, yellow, green, violet, or the most popular hue blue. And rubies can also have a secondary hue or color. The possible colors include: orange, purple, violet, or pink. Determination of a ruby's grade through analysis of their color, cut clarity and weight. Color is the most important evaluation specifically from hue, saturation and tone.
The most common cuts for rubies are oval and cushions which hold up best. However rubies can also be cut circular, triangular, emerald cut, pear, marquise cuts all of which do not always hold up as well. Generally the size of a ruby is under a karat to keep cost reasonable any larger and its price will vary greatly.
Rubies are generally heat-treated to cut down on or eradicate impurities inside of the natural fractures in the gemstone. Or a rough ruby is only given a pre-polish and maybe a cleaning with hydrogen fluoride. If there are fractures in the specimen lead glass fills them in. Or if the gemstone's color is lacking a glass powder with copper and another metal oxide like sodium or calcium are given a try to enhance the natural color of the ruby. Otherwise rubies are left as natural as possible.

All gemstones including ruby can safely be cleaned with warn soapy water with or without using a tooth-brush. After cleaning the gemstone wipe it with a soft cloth.

I received a complimentary copy of the book, Profit From China in December. Unfortunately, I was so busy I had not had a chance to read it until March. Thanks to Peter from John Wiley & Sons for sending me a copy.
Profit From China talks about the growth and opportunities in China. It illustrates the kind of pace china is growing at and predicts what China will be in the near future. After reading this book, I became more interested in investing in China.
For specific investments, the book recommends buying PetroChina (PTR), Bunge (BE) and iShares MSCI China Index (FXI). China is growing through a huge growing phase and is consuming a lot of oil and resources.
The book also talks about The Investment U's Philosophy to a successful investing. One principle is a Trailing Stop Strategy of 25%. This is when you put a trailing stop of 25% on a stock to protect your profits or limit your losses from 25% off the peak. Another principle is Position Sizing. You should not have more than 2% of your portfolio in any individual stock. And the other principles are Emotionless Investing and Asset Allocation.
The book was easy to read and short enough to finish in a short time. It took me a few days, because I read it only during my train rides, but it could be finished in one sitting.

Hi everybody!
I absolutely love this class! I love drawing, painting and taking pictures, but I've never considered myself a "good handwriter". That's why I want to start improving my handwriting, and Stefania's class is perfect to learn how to do it!
Ok, I'm a little embarassed now: this is my starting point :)

Alive with Purpose
What is your purpose?
You know you have one. Your heart is beating. You exist for a reason.
What is it?
For such a simple question, the answer is profound. It can also feel daunting, complex, puzzling, and overwhelming as all get-out.
Some of us are blessed to have our purpose seemingly plop into our laps. I remember when I was in India, talking to my yoga teacher, Vinay Kumar, and asking him how he knew he was meant to teach. He responded, "I just started teaching when I was twelve. I knew it was my path."
Let me tell you, I was both awed and extremely envious of the certainty of his knowing.
On the other hand, some of us are blessed in a different way. We may find ourselves on an arduous road of seeking what our purpose is. What is our unique "thing?"
If you are anything like me, you have stumbled along this path. You've looked under rocks, behind trees, took a tumble down into the brush, and fell flat on your face in the dirt many times – looking, searching, asking "Are you my purpose?"
Here's the funny thing I learned about purpose.
It's right under your nose.
It's actually hilarious if you really think about it, that we look for it outside of ourselves. We think we are going to find it in our education, a relationship, a job, with money, and even in service to others.
But your purpose is so unique – there is no WAY you can experience it outside of yourself.
YOU are your purpose.
Pause. Let that sink in.
Maybe you are thinking right now… OK, Danielle, that's a powerful statement…but WTF does that really mean???
Your existence, your being, your presence is your purose.
Your purpose is authenticity.
Your purpose is being you.
Your purpose is showing up…
And Deciding to LIVE
When you look around you, how many people in your life are walking around like they are half-alive? If you notice this, you are awakening. And you know it because you "see dead people." You see people not fully showing up for their lives.
How does it make you feel to witness others not fully believing in themselves, holding themselves back from their dreams, halting their truest desires before they even have a chance to breathe?
It feels like shit!
We don't wish this on anyone.
Including yourself.
So how do you change it?
What does it really mean to be ALIVE with purpose?
This is a deeply personal question with an infinite number of answers. Here's my start.
It means waking up each day an choosing to be true to yourself. To follow your Inner Compass and your North Star. To treat yourself as well as you treat others (I call this the Platinum Rule!), to take steps towards your own fulfillment and to chose to live life by your OWN values and measure your success by your OWN standards.
It means loving all aspects of yourself…even the parts that aren't so pretty, or (you think) are downright ugly. It means that even when you are going through Hell…you just keep going! It means trusting your gut and believing in the good you offer the world. It means knowing that you are here, serving yourself and others as your best self – whether its pouring a cup of coffee or building an orphanage. It's fully appreciating yourself and your life.
It's knowing that ANYTHING you do to heal yourself, to accept more of who you are, to live more as your WHOLE self, is absolutely, without a shadow of a doubt, also healing the very same thing in the collective consciousness.
You are special.
And I am not just blowing smoke up your ass.
Your ideas are valuable. Your message is crucial. You are needed.
You are JUST what the world needs.
Or you wouldn't be here.
Right now.
Love Always,

Cummins roots are planted in soil nourished by innovation, persistence and a commitment to community. Founded in Columbus, Indiana, in 1919 as Cummins Engine Company, for its namesake Clessie Lyle Cummins, the fledgling firm was among the first to see the commercial potential of an unproven engine technology invented two decades earlier by Rudolph Diesel.
After a decade of fits and starts, during which time the diesel engine failed to take hold as a commercial success, a stroke of marketing genius by Clessie Cummins helped save the Company. Cummins mounted a diesel engine in a used Packard limousine and on Christmas day in 1929 took W.G. Irwin for a ride in America's first diesel-powered automobile. Irwin's enthusiasm for the new engine led to an infusion of cash into the Company, which helped fuel a number of speed and endurance records in the coming years - including a grueling 13,535-mile run at the Indianapolis Motor Speedway in 1931. Such feats earned Cummins' foothold as an engine supplier to the trucking industry. Click here to read more.
DK Engine Parts provides OEM equivalent quality parts for most Cummins engine applications without charging the dealer prices. We have worked with reliable vendors to ensure your needs are met with quality engine parts and knowledgeable sales associates.

Hang on for a minute...we're trying to find some more stories you might like.
Email This Story
On Saturday, March 24th many marches and protests were performed all over the United States against the gun laws that we have today, and changes that protesters want to be made. With more than 800 protests planned in each American state, students leading the rallies would perform a speech declaring "Never again!" and that they are "Done hiding!" from gun violence.
The "March for our Lives" protest in New York was in response to the shooting in Florida at the Stoneman Douglas High School. With nearly 200,000 people participating, the march was based on pushing our legislatures to create better gun legislation. Other proposals include: raising the minimum age for purchasing a gun to 21 years, prohibiting people with domestic violence history from purchasing a gun, banning assault weapons from civilian hands, and more. This event was put together by a group of survivors from the Stoneman Douglas shooting however, the "march for our lives" includes many other students across the country. Tia Herrman, a high school senior in Lawrence Kansas attended the march. She stated: "The march was incredibly powerful and the amount of youth influence in organizing it shows how hopeful prospects are for the country."
What are your thoughts on the school shootings and marches?

Very little has been said about father/son relationship in MGTOW, and I feel that highlighting this father/son bond or lack of is paramount to carving a different future for men and generations of men to come. In order to venture into this future or this unknown path in betterment of men, we should see father/son relationships as one of the most important pieces left to complete The New Man; that special being that is to rise from the messy rubble of gynocentrism. The focus here is to highlight the factors surrounding those strained father/son relationships and help understand them better. Not only has the role of fathers at home changed in recent decades with more and more fathers choosing to stay home but fathers are getting more involved in their children's lives. However, if the roles of fathers that preceded the changing role of the modern men is left unaddressed in a service to loosen the grip gynocentrism have on father/son relationships and sever its umbilical cord that has robbed sons of fatherly love and fathers of love and reverence from sons, the same mistakes would repeat themselves and the blame will continue to fall squarely on these men.
Many men this generation as well as past, if asked to explain, would laud their mothers as a strong woman adept in providing needed care. These men wouldn't hesitate in telling you how she always ensures he is taken care of so that he wants for nothing. The same tone of gratitude would never extend to their father, instead these man would speak so stolid of his father who he barely sees because he's out working in some soul destroying job or jobs, never mind that everything he enjoys from clothes on his back, to electricity, to shelter, tuition, groceries, that new bike, and more were all made happen by the blood and sweat sacrificed but never seen. The few men that may speak favorably of their fathers in comparison to their mothers would still leave room for the listening ears to notice the distance and the loosened edges the words used in describing his father creates; words that does very little to shorten the distance he feels towards the man who raised him. Then some men, without holding back, would spell out the strictness, borderline meanness, with which their fathers rule his household when he was growing up and how on those occasions he suffers the punishments his father dishes, care and nurture are only to be found under his mother's caressed hands and warm bosom. And then there are those men who'd tell you about their father's anger that never fail to rise with the sun at dawn or set with it when he gets back from work. They would grudgingly account for ways their fathers lashes out at the most inoffensive remark or gesture. Then with heavy hearts expressed in their saddened facial expressions, other men would account for how their fathers berated them endlessly and verbally abused them when they were young. Then there are those fathers chased out of their sons' lives by the mother and her goons, the government, and in helplessness does very little to come back into it. Or those fathers that just left, period. Then what about the characters of those fathers whose son's accomplishments is never enough until it is aligned with their own macho personality and way of thinking. The hyper-masculine fathers who never fail to relate to their sons the word they themselves has heard and lived all their lives, "man up!" They are the fathers who feels their son isn't masculine enough until he maybe throws a football or get into a fight and beat another boy.
My goal isn't to excuse these fathers of their behaviors or what they did, but to open a new discourse in an attempt to understand these men better, these fathers, their burden, and perhaps find some healing within that understanding and maybe, just maybe, prevent The New Man from making the same mistake when relating to his own son. Besides, these fathers are the closest blue-pill mangina and tradcons to us and the only ones we perhaps have some type of obligation to.
*I'm prefacing this with a clear understanding that nothing said in this article is geared in defense of those few men who mentally or sexually abuse their sons*
As an 8 ball, that anomaly in all living entity homologous to nature, I never felt this urge of procreation as many men do. I never liked children (only from the distance), they aren't all that "cute" to me and I find them excruciatingly boring. I care very little for how humanity or how the world turns out long after I shut my eyes to it. It's my belief that every generation must fend for itself and right the wrongs of the generations prior just like MGTOW minded men are doing. However, even though this is the course I've chosen for my life as a MGTOW, and even though I'm not saddled with this worry as other men with children, it is my confession that I've been at the end of those unfavorable treatments from the first man I opened my eyes in this world. He did all the things society expect fathers to do. He was a provider and a protector, well read and meticulous in thinking. He did all that society demanded of him. He held two PhDs, was a published author, and was quite revered by his colleagues, but as his son I never felt any type of connection to or love from him. The distance between him and I was only altered by sporadic conversations and rare pats on the head in a display of affection when I do something affable to his nature. I hated his guts growing up and my revenge was always to express apathy to things he finds important or worthy. I read his books and even though I deeply respect his creativity in writing and his accomplishments, as a child I had to hold up a shield of apathy to make him feel even an ounce of what I felt towards him. But after some time I began to see things clearly. The older I got it occurred to me that I never saw any trace of happiness in the old man. He was always distant and closed-off but this was not only meant to wall off people he considered ignorant who aren't as intellectually on par but the distance made room to contemplate his own failures. He once divulged to me with tired eyes, as if reminiscing a lost love, one of his dreams growing up and how he never had the chance to chase it because he succumbed to outside pressure and got married really young. He said it in secret, a secret made vivid by the odor of liquor in his breath, actively fighting dehiscence of a wound that refused to remain closed. But what is weirder is that I understood him more than he could've put into words. I began to understand the circumstances that left a void in all the things he was helpless in making happen. He was a workaholic which made him tired and grumpy most times but he provided well for me and my brothers. It's just unfortunate that the hand that provided often times hid the hand that was more than capable of giving love. But I really came to understand. I really did.
These groups of men are only victims of their own ignorance. They were ignorant of the rules that bind their gender and even when they sniff the wrong of these rules that made their lives arduous they lack the courage to question the heavy hands with which those rules commands. Those heavy hands and those rules carve these men's plots in life which is to work and be of use to everybody else but themselves. Responsibility is theirs and theirs only and they must be responsible. These men never question why responsibility reek of servitude? They never wonder why responsibility to anyone other than themselves is nothing but muck of slavery? By the time they realize they too are human beings and not just doings they often find it's too late. They find that time is gone and that bright sun is beginning to give way to the shade that eventually seal close the envelope of life. They suddenly realize what's left of their lives is routine, paying bills, working long hours with minimum pay, working when they don't want to work, rearing children they may not have wanted in the first place, bind to an unhappy marriage they can't get out of without losing everything and their minds, or afraid of a wife that is entitled to his life if she decides to call it quit. They acquire everything respectability requires but are devoid of any fulfillment in it, and as a result these men resign to their fate. Secretly, they know they are merely utilities and therefore disposable, and in order to avoid that cold reality they delude themselves by contorting meaning out of it that shameful fatuity of responsibility. But responsibility does very little to mitigate the daily fatigue that results from the rigorous day work or the perspiration that is spent in acquiring it. To unwind they unleash on the one person that is to become disposable like they did, their son, and because this young soul is partly responsible for the responsibility they were forced to take on, he becomes the target for their emotional outburst. The rules that bind these men also bind their sons and only their sons, hence why they treat sons austerely and often worse than they do daughters. Hence why sons carry more responsibilities than daughters.
One has to wonder, didn't these men had big dreams at a very young age just like their sons are bound to dream some day? They are now left to contemplate where it went. I believe the reason young boys dream big dreams, of becoming pilots, doctors, astronauts, fireman is because the reality that is to erode those dreams of which their developing body is the driver isn't yet set in place. And society is to ensure that this happens by conditioning him through the help of his father so he can grow up to be the man society wants him to be.
This particular friend of mine, 27, works construction, and he's on his 5th kid. His wife gave birth to the 5th child two months ago. He called me on my way to the store to tell me his wife gave birth and request a ride to the hospital because he'd left his truck at the hospital the previous night. On our way to the hospital, amidst a relaxed jovial conversation, he told me it's his wife's idea to have the 4th and the 5th kid. He only wanted 3 children. He works 6 days a week and had to commute 90 minutes to work some days depending on the site. He told me not too long ago that he's lost most sensation in his left ring and pinky fingers and all sensation in the middle finger of the right and that he's tired all the time. Because of that he's drinking more and smoking more cigarettes than he ever did. I told him to slow down that work is killing him but he jokingly glossed over my remarks with "you know how she is, man. Besides, kids gotta eat." Each time I'm at his house, even though he love those kids, he's barking at the boys about playing too much while the girls are free to make noise and jump around. On those rare days he's in a "good mood," he's rough-housing the boys who often times look on importunately as if to say they'd rather be doing something different.
Some abuse suffered by victims are only reflections of the abuse suffered by the perpetrator. Some men are only victims of the abuse from their own mother as evidenced by this post I came across on a forum. His response to the mistreatments he suffered in the hands of his father…
"Was it all his fault? No, not entirely. I was diagnosed as bipolar this past summer, and I can see clearly a long history of mental health issues going back to past generations in my father's family, so I believe there is a genetic, biological component to this. But there is also an environmental component. In my father's case, although I have no evidence, I have long conjectured that he was the victim of sexual abuse by his mother, because of things he did as an adult, and things I witnessed as a child in his interactions with her."
Then there are those men who walked away from their sons, a faulty response to a problem beyond their powers. The only thing these men who walk away from their children are guilty of is not having the chance to make their case, but one has to wonder if they had the chance would their case be heard? The real question that need to be asked is, did these men even want kids in the first place? Most of them had the news of pregnancy sprung on them like strings of thunder that precedes a bitter rain. Powerless against a woman's wish to keep the child and powerless against her irresponsibility, no viable option is presented him than the option to either stay and relinquish what is left of his freedom or escape responsibilities forced upon him. The ones who stay grumblingly does because the alternative is worse. Forcing these men into fatherhood is equal to forcing them into loving and providing for something they never sign off on to begin with. He was not ready, he didn't want it, and he could not afford it, but he cannot do anything about it because it's her will. Society relieves women of all the responsibilities forced on him to carry, hers and his. Whether he leaves or stay his reputation's gone to shit when relating to his children while that of the mother is made angelic and this is so because the decision that changed his life was made against his will. If he leaves he is considered a deadbeat and if he stays it would reflect in his strained relationship with his son. These men are made out to be bad when in reality they are victims.
But what of the militant and macho ways some fathers raise their sons? All that men hear growing up is "man up." With those two words a man is not allowed a moment's weakness or expression of any vulnerability. A man is to be strong and stoic. He is only to smile but not too much, laugh but not out loud. He is to show nothing but strength and operate accordingly. Upon his shoulders all other heads rest, perpetually denied the chance to lower his own in tiredness or fatigue. Of course he never question why he is hated when all he wanted to do is put down the armor of strength placed on him just once so he could express his emotion and spill some water for things he had bottled up inside. He becomes accustomed to his conditioned identity and set out to raise his son as such, a doing; an entity with no emotion; a robot. So he allows his daughter to cry and vent but not his son. She is allowed to be violent towards him but never to retaliate and most of all he shouldn't cry about the injustice. So what his son is not allowed to defend himself and when tears is all he could afford to relieve pent up anger and frustration of helplessness, he's not even allowed to do that. "Man up, boy." "Don't be a sissy." "You laugh too much." "You're never serious." "Boy, what's wrong with you?" "Goddamit! Be a man, son!" "You better not cry." "Protect your sister, son." "What did I say, boy?" "You are to take care of your mother, son, now that I'm not capable." "Walk it off!" "Don't be a sissy, son." "Put down the book and go outside." "Football, son. Football!" "We win in this house, son, we don't lose!" "I said walk it off!" "You are a man, act like it, damn it!" "Men don't cry." "Stop it!" "Stop acting like a girl." "Be a man."
The umbilical cord strengthens stretching and reaching farther and farther into the future, entangling the next generation of men only to be duplicated by them and send forth again and again. No one ever told these men to eschew the conditioned identity attached to their gender, no one ever told them it's OK to eschew all responsibility that is not to themselves. No one ever told them nor did it ever occur to them to never get married. No one ever told them that they are only good as long as they are of use, not to themselves but to society and its women. No one ever told them that women are incapable of love, only conditional adoration. It didn't occur to them that their sons are bound to suffer the same fate as them for being males.
But a crack is beginning to show like the dawn of a new day, like the rose no one thought would ever sprout out of a concrete. MGTOW minded men, The New Men, are severing those umbilical cords by asking the necessary questions, debilitating the answers provided by their culture, shedding the ego, revising and rewriting roles men has forever been given. MGTOW minded men are thinning out the cord at both ends and carving a new future for The New Man.
It should be stated that vast majority of fathers aren't like this. As a matter of fact, vast majority of men dearly love their children and care very well for them. Moreover, studies have shown children fare far better under single fathers compared to single mothers, showing that not only is paternal role pertinent to a child's development but it cannot be substituted. Any attempt to substitute it or enforce it will only end in disaster, either for the man or for his son. But to the set of fathers that fall under the category of men described above, the aim is to understand them and maybe take some of the blame off them and lay them where they belong and recognize that these men are merely victims of the precarious choices offered to them. There is nothing to forgive or forget, only to understand, only to understand the circumstances beyond the power of these men and conditions beyond their means to face them. To the men out there raising sons, the preferred way is to raise these young men to be MGTOW minded and not make the mistakes of men of old who, due to societal conditioning, raised the men after them to be soulless husks who helplessly donned the demented image of a man put together by sick gynocentric culture, basically a copy of what they see in themselves and how they were treated and mistreated. But most of all to heal some of the wounds…

According to them, the serious challenges remain in front of us today, in implementation of the judgment. While the present government and the members of parliament are willing to concede to legislations and some measures in response to public opinion on entitlements like right to food, right to education etc, they are hell-bent and unwilling to concede anything which will fundamentally change balance of power between the citizens and the government/parliament. The very recent short sighted Ordinance brought by the Government of India, surpassing the democratic parliamentary process, to overturn Supreme Court's Judgment on disqualification of MP's convicted for serious crimes, is an example for this.
However, they said the Nation needs even more radical reforms than those ordered by the Supreme Court. Cancellation of elections and holding re-elections, if more that 50% of voters among the polled votes reject all the Candidates, Institute a system of referendums to put in place a minimal kind of direct democracy, funding of elections, expenses of political parties and their sources of funding, instituting fundamental police reforms, making police and civil services accountable, etc need to be addressed more expediently.
NAPM demanded that now the Election Commission must formulate rules for proper implementation of the Judgment and contribute to the larger goal of all the struggling peoples groups, who are fighting for power at grassroots levels for good governance and accountability of their political representatives.
They said that they are confident that the government will recognise the force of peoples demand and mood of the nation, and do not take undemocratic steps to overturn the Judgments of Supreme Court by bringing an Ordinance but take steps for effective implementation of them, which will empower Indian citizens to participate in, and monitor, democratic governance.

Re-Upholstered Desk Chair
Hi everyone!
I finally did it, I finished my chair!
At the Knitting and Stitching Show in Olympia earlier this year, my friend J. and I came across this fabric and fell in love with it immediately:
And that's when I hit a blip. I finished the seat cushion as well and it looked amazing. But when I turned the cushion over I realised I had done it upside down! I could leave it that way and be annoyed every time I looked at the chair, or I could take all the staples out and start over. With a heavy sigh I Googled 'how to remove staple gun staples' and got to work. A while later, having removed the staples, I redid the fabric the other way around and stapled it all together again. It still looked amazing, and I happily started assembling the bottom part of the chair. *silence* I was right the first time!!! NOW it was upside down! I could have cried (and think I did a bit actually). I was so frustrated!! The bf now felt really sorry for me and happily shared his IKEA experiences with me, saying it's all part of the process. Yes, but I was right the first time!! So I started removing all the staples again (no Googling needed this time). I guess it was a good thing that my hands were starting to hurt because the second set of staples was nowhere near as tight as the first so they came out fairly easy. At least now I knew which way was up, and I made sure to write that on the bottom of the chair in thick marker in case I ever wanted to do this again. Stapled everything back the way it was the first time and it was done!! I only have two washers left from the arm rest that didn't really fit in anymore but no one is going to notice
I finally did it, I finished my chair!
We did our usual thing and bought one meter to split it later when we got home. I knew exactly what I wanted to do with my share, re-upholster me chair!
I had read so many cool and easy tutorials on how to re-upholster a desk chair, so it really couldn't be that difficult right? But when I got home and saw the size of the chair cushions, I knew there was no way that half a meter would cover it. So I could do one of two things: find a different fabric or buy more. Luckily, J. didn't have an immediate project so she kindly sold her half back to me (which was then used for sponsorship for one of my run, she is so sweet!). Now that I had my full meter, I needed the other supplies, most importantly: a staple gun! The bf was a bit worried about me handing heavy machinery being clumsy as I am, but we got a good one that was quite idiot proof.
For some time now, I have sneakily tried to get the backing off the cushion but it being the only desk chair I have (and a really comfy one at that) I didn't want to ruin it. But today I had a burst of courage so today was the day this was going to happen! Of course I had to take a 'before' photo:
This was my boring blue chair. I only had two options at the time, neither was particularly great but the blue was the best. I was never really annoyed with it, but it's been a while and I really wanted to make it all pretty and girly. (ignore the mess, this is my craft area).
The bf was out on a run and I got going on disassembling the chair. When he came back I was still disassembling but had gotten a good chunk of it done already. I only needed his help for the top part of the backing as that was wedged in real tight.
But four hands make light work and with his help I managed to get the back cushion off its cover too. Yay!
The backing was held against the cushion with 4 of these. Just pry them apart really hard and they will come out. The chair now only has one small crack but nothing visible.
I left the old blue covers on as I didn't really want to take out all those old staples. And lots of blogs I've read about did the same so why not? At the worst it would be more cushiony (nothing wrong with that). OMG I LOVE using the staple gun! It was great fun!
I got the entire back cushion covered, and man was I tired! Staplegunning was fun but surely much easier when you have big manly hands. But I had momentum so I kept going!
I just love my new chair!!! This is exactly what I had in mind when I bought the fabric.
It came out really well, and I am majorly proud of having done this :) Even if it took me two hours longer because of my stapling error. But at least I didn't get injured ;) I LOOOVE IT!
This post has a few how-to pics, but there are so many tutorials out there for different kinds of chairs that I am sure you can find a very detailed one if you need to. I put some up on my Pinterest and they really helped.
I really want to eat some cake now though, I wonder if that could be the influence of the chair? ;)

Another important observation according to the extensive analysis was that dietary arginine decreased serum concentrations of branched-chain proteins. This metabolic transformation is likely helpful because elevated concentrations of branched-chain amino acids may lead to insulin resistance in weight problems.

"You come to the Lodhi garden to get your head fixed. Like when you are down and out—lost a job maybe, a girlfriend, or are struggling to understand the meaning of life. Not that you will find answers to these permanent agonies that plague men and women alike, but the trip helps. Don't ask me how. Certainly not what a resolution the morning after a night of frustration-induced-binge-drinking can do though." Says the fellow writer I have invited for a walk—November in Delhi is superb for outdoors was the only excuse I could proffer when he asked why—and though we have met in the city bars before, save one literary festival, he quite surprisingly agreed— and now he shares this wisdom as we saunter along a paved walkway, giving way every few seconds to the exercise-seeking, rich-and-important day-walkers in clean sneakers, the residents of Lutyens' Delhi who like wearing, I notice for the first time, tight track pants for some reason.
The fading light of the late afternoon blurring our vision, and the fact that the guard will soon be asking people to leave, is making the couples seated strategically closer to the bushes more adventurous. I see a few of them kissing passionately, others have wrapped their arms around their partners, and still others are whispering into each other's ears, of which there is clearly no need as the birds are at their frantic best, chirping at their top volume. By the time I get my attention back to what my friend is saying, I've missed a lot.
He seems to know a great deal about this garden, certainly more than me. "This was earlier called the Lady Willingdon Park," he says with a great flourish by the wave of his hand, a fact that I already know but choose not to comment, "and it was only in the late sixties that J.A. Stein, the American architect who also built the India International Centre right next door, gave the garden its present character."
His talk fades once again as I stare at the tombs of the great fifteenth century warriors, the arched doors in the stone buildings of which are lined with blue tiles. There is definitely love in the air and the November wind that sweeps through the Cedar, Eucalyptus and the Palo Boracco, or the Silk Floss tree as the last one is called, now in its full autumn bloom, is cool on the skin.
Later, after my friend has gone, I walk around the tombs in awe to look at the monuments more closely but end up scaring couples who look at me with hate in their eyes. I must stick to the main walkways I assert to myself and sit on a bench close to an old man who doesn't respond to my smile.
"Do you come here every day?" I wait for a response, but he gets up and walks away.
He is back in a few minutes. "I've a problem you see," he says, waving in the direction of the toilet.
I must ask him now, I decide. "Sir, someone said people come here for a quickie in the dark. Is it true?"
I am being too straight, rude maybe, definitely not civilized, and my only escape, if the old man reacts abnormally, is the visiting card in my pocket which claims that I'm a writer. And that I hope gives me a bit of a license to prod people with uncomfortable questions.
I find it difficult to match the gaze of the old man as he sizes me up, but after a while when he eases down further on the bench and begins to speak, I know I am closer to getting my answer.
"The eunuchs descend here in the night," he says, "letting the couple do a quickie for a small fee as they look out for the guards. That's how it works."

We bought both Church and Manse in the 1990's when the buildings were derelict. We renovated the Manse, in traditional style, and that continues to be our family home.
The Church then became our "Grand Designs" project where we could be a bit more adventurous with the building. Renovated in a modern style the church features full height ceilings, custom made stained glass windows, a hand built helical staircase using local hardwood and a glass screen wall to ensure the building is light and airy.
We don't have any other rental properties and regard the Church renovation as something we are immensely proud of and are happy to share with others.
The holiday rental allows a fine building to have a happy purpose again and funds its upkeep.

text: Sunday Wrap-Up [Vol. 9] Brandon Caldwell August 30, 2009 Music While it was nothing like this, it still was pretty cool. Two things before I kick off this wrap-up. A) The Luma Light Show includes two things. One, if it's at Miller Outdoor then you had better show up like six hours ahead of time and beware civilians who don't know that cars are in their presence (which means there will be a blog about the don't of going to an outdoor event, ghettoness is included). B) 9 EST for a fantasy football draft when you get off of work at 8 is some bull, especially when EST means absolutely nothing to you when you live in the central time-zone. With that, we're on Sunday. And officially at 5,000 unique views. Damn right! So I'm well aware that the Drake record "Forever" is probably the biggest song to end the summer, much like Swagger Like Us was the biggest song to end the summer last year. Do I feel that Eminem bodied everybody else on the beat? Yes. Do I feel that Wayne came in last yet again on a star-studded lineup and got his ass ate up after he begged to be on a track with Em? Yes. Can you possibly change my opinion on this? Probably, but Wayne'll be last by default. The other three might be interchangeable. But you can't deny the fact that this one song has overshadowed (more like loomed like Shaq vs. a midget) the fact that not one, not two, but three Jay-Z tracks from Blueprint 3 leaked. All from Timbaland's camp apparently. And all the evidence points to Timbaland's camp because these tracks all are produced by Mr. Mosley. Does it mean the rest of the album might suck? I hated "Jigga That Nigga" from the first Blueprint but the rest of the album? Greatness. Singles don't make albums, whether labels realize this or not. You want to know why rock and country records still sell a lot, regardless of the digital age? Because the fans love the albums. Hip-Hop? We wear the fuck out of a skip button. By the way, Venus vs. Mars > the other two leaks. Speaking of music, I also let my creative juices flow and make another version of This Shit Right Here…, giving a little spotlight to those from the underground Atlanta scene and almost everything else. Which is a lot better than some of these DJ's who talk all over the damn track and instead of you getting a punchline, you miss the whole thing. And it scares me that even though it's back to school, we as a country believe Lil' Wayne is a viable spokesperson. Now if they told young Weezy F. Baby about a sex ed class back in high school then he'd be in a better child support bracket. I'm just sayin'. We also paid tribute to Aaliyah this past week, while losing DJ AM in the process. Kind of eerie that the guy survived a plane crash a year ago and then dies this week, the same week that a Final Destination movie dropped. I'm sorry, but it just had to be said. In health news, the discovery that skinny jeans aren't going to save your life should wake up a whole lot of folks, but we have to be aware – unless Jay-Z tells the world that skinny jeans are wack, nobody is going to pay attention to it. Or that one testy woman who can't stand another woman will scream and shout that bald hairstyles are wack. Needless to say, women can't agree on enough to even come to THAT position, which is why they can't rule the world. In terms of athlete stupidity, bitchassness can always be attributed to it. Some folks beat up cabbies, others take pictures of themselves with weed in the background and then Brandon Marshall (who is killing my namesake with every breath) decides to up the bitchassness ante thanks to his actions during practice which wound up getting him suspended. He deserved it, he should just man up and play but no, athletes are spoiled little brats who think they can't do wrong but instead do ALL wrong. Also, you can't press the PS3 on me with a low price and a new slim version. Sony sucks as a company, which kind of kills my idea on it. If Apple wasn't so high end, I'd consider a Mac, even though I know they're pricey as fuck but hey, that's me. Also, I'm an asshole sometimes, but you already knew that, especially after Thick vs. Fat (which somehow amassed over 300+ views in one day). But Black America needs to realize that everything that is good can actually be bad and that they can't be sexy with their babies pictures in the back. Extra Note: My FF Team, Team Slaughterhosue (only because I couldn't think of Vick In A Box) has this for an offensive line-up: Matt Ryan, QB Atlanta Michael Turner, RB Atlanta Clinton Portis, RB Washington Brandon Jacobs, RB New York Wes Welker, WR New England Bernanrd Berrian, WR Minnesota Zach Miller, TE Oakland Patriots Defense/Special Teams John Kasay, K Carolina A lot of yay's and a lot of boo's. Mainly because I had actually made it to the draft and watch it on time, I'd attempt to grab Randy Moss and the Steelers defense. But when I know somebody has both Moss & Larry Fitzgerald, I'm instantly pissed. Oh well, hopefully the season'll turn out great for my squad. Share this:TweetShare on Tumblr

Hull v Leicester
Burnley v Swansea
Crystal Palace v West Brom
Everton v Spurs
Middlesbrough v Stoke
Southampton v Watford
Man City v Sunderland
Bournemouth v Man Utd
Arsenal v Liverpool
Chelsea v West Ham
Welcome. We've quite a few newcomers to our league this season – and I'm pleased to say that most of the people who played last year have come along for the ride again. Of the 16 available prizes in 2015-2016, 11 were won by new managers. As I write, I still haven't decided as to whether I'm going to introduce a manager of the week award. I think once I know how many people we have, I'll test the water with you all again. I'd like to do it – I think it'd make it interesting – but I don't want to reduce the league winning prize pot by too much. Another option might be to increase the prizes for manager of the month, so you're at least getting your entry fee back. The prize breakdown will be calculated in due course. Keep checking the 'Prize Money' link for details. As usual the 'Buckets Cup' link provides you with all info on the knockout competition, which will probably start in late February/early March. Your 'Roll of Honour' link lists all the weekly and monthly winners, as well a the highest scoring players from each round.
The game hasn't changed from last season. The site's had a revamp in line with the new branding for the Premier League. We've still got two wildcards to utilise – one for each half of the season. The point scoring remains the same and you still get your one free transfer per week – two if you go for a week without making one. Those pesky chips are loitering around just underneath your team line up. Don't play them by accident as it seems many people managed to do last season. Wait for those double gameweeks to kick in in the last two months.
Watch out though for the new Friday night kick offs – the first of which is on August 19th. That's gameweek two. That means your team will have to be in by 7pm – on the Friday. Gone are those Saturday mornings sat in your pants mulling over the match previews on the internet. You'll just have to hope for the best.
And so to deciding that all important starting line up. Getting points on the board early is key. It doesn't take long for that pool of worthwhile players to start dwindling. Pretty soon we'll all be picking the same team. There's a lot to consider. Frisking the first batch of fixtures may help you determine who is in line for a good start to the campaign, but pre-season performance – (good, bad, any at all?), Euro 16 fatigue, new players, impending transfers, unwanted players – all play a part.
So here's a theory for the opening weeks – avoid Arsenal and go all out Burnley.
The Gunners go into the season with a threadbare defence. None of their first choice centre halves are fit enough to play against Liverpool. Per Mertesacker and Gabriel are long term injured and Laurent Koscielny is still on his jollies. The Arsenal players involved in the latter stages of Euro 2016 seem to be getting a bit too much time off. Olivier Giroud and Mesut Ozil look unlikely to figure as well. Liverpool thumped Barcelona in pre-season with starring performances from Sadio Mane and Roberto Firmino. The £10 million you might have put aside for Ozil might be better spent on one of those two. They're notoriously flaky in their opening fixtures too. Just one win in their last six attempts doesn't bode well. Leicester, Southampton and Chelsea follow in a tricky opening month and a half.
Burnley, however, could get off to a flier. They have four home games in their first six. Three of those are against Swansea, Hull and Watford – just the kind of teams that they'll need to beat at home if they are to survive. In their last season in the Premier League, despite their relegation, Tom Heaton amassed 150 points, enough to rank him as the best value keeper. It happens every season – don't dismiss the keepers of the relegation favourites. They've always got more saves to make and often stack up the bonus marks. Check Heurelho Gomes in 2015-2016. They've also got Andre Gray. Gray is the most popular player from the promoted teams – owned by nearly 12% of managers across the game. And with good reason – he scored 23 goals last season, and has nine in six in pre-season.
There are others with favourable starts. Lets ignore the big boys for this week. West Brom, Middlesbrough and Everton may be worth looking at. West Brom are without a game against one of the traditional big six until gameweek 8. Pulis teams are usually reliable from a defensive point of view, and so mainstays Jonny Evans, Gareth MacAuley, Craig Dawson and Ben Foster could be worth some early investment.
Everton should shore up considerably at the back now with Ronald Koeman in charge. His Southampton team went six games without conceding in the middle part of last season. The John Stones money looks like it's being spent well – Ashley Williams is in and Yannick Bolasie might follow. Other than their tricky opener against Spurs, games against West Brom, Stoke, Sunderland, Middlesbrough and Bournemouth follow, with chances of points up top and at the back.
Middlesbrough wait until gameweek six before they meet a title challenger. Stoke, Sunderland, West Brom, Palace and Everton offer good clean sheet and goalscoring potential. They had the stingiest defence in the Championship last season, conceding only eight at home, and keeping 22 clean sheets. They've upgraded their keeper for the Premier League, and many managers will be tempted by a £4.5 million purchase of Victor Valdes. Ditto the £6.5 million you'll need to pick up Alvaro Negredo at the other end of the pitch.

July 2011 | Senior Leadership
Recent research indicates that the more senior your position, the more you must rely on relationships to move your initiatives and your career forward. But many executives believe they can influence without them — witness the term many use to describe this social ability: "soft skills." It's that deprecating attitude, and the behaviors it engenders, that can sidetrack an executive whose job performance is otherwise commendable.
"To develop solid, successful relationships, you need to take responsibility for doing so," notes Janet Greco, co-academic director of the Wharton Executive Education program Building Relationships That Work. "Your goal is to use every interaction to enhance your relationships with others, or at the very least to break even."
Greco continues, "Being responsible means it's your job to translate your core message into terms that the person you're communicating with can recognize, understand, and value. Know that there are different ways to get the same message across, and choose a method that will resonate. You can pick up cues about both their values and preferred style of communication from the words they choose, their behavior, and what they prioritize.
"In Building Relationships That Work, we use the Hermann Brain Dominance Instrument, which was designed to give you a glimpse into the operating system of your brain and what kind of thinking and perceiving you prefer. There are four styles, and, while everyone does all four, just as with our two hands, we tend to prefer one or two more than others. The instrument helps you first to understand your own style and then to identify those of others."
Understanding someone else's "grain of wood," as well as your own, are the first steps in taking full responsibility for building and maintaining your relationships, says Greco. "If you're talking to someone in finance, and he or she prefers expressions in terms of an objective, measurable reality, you want to offer your message in terms of numbers and data, formulas and comparables. You wouldn't start with a philosophical argument, or a discussion about people's feelings or the process. To be heard, address it in a way that speaks to his preferences."
The more models you have for interacting and communicating, the more lenses you can apply understanding how others think and perceive value in given situations, the more likely you are to enable others to find value in relating to you. Instead of a one-size-fits-all approach, Greco suggests taking a step back, looking at what you say and do from different perspectives, such as a cultural, technical, or political perspective. Applying various approaches helps you to objectify and evaluate your own behavior. "If one way of thinking or behaving isn't working for a given relationship," says Greco, "you can take responsibility and change it. Many more executives could consider adapting their approach to others' as a high-leverage option. Building relationships, augmenting influence beyond your title, is worth the work — and responsibility."
Greco shares five specific relationship game-changers:
But it's not just about learning cognitively what to do, Greco stresses. Changing life-long habits, thoughts, and behaviors takes practice. Before Building Relationships That Work begins, participants are asked to share a relationship situation they would like to improve. They then work through these actual circumstances in small groups (each group has no competitors and no people from the same organization), using the tools they learned in the program. "You will leave with more approaches to real situations — approaches that won't be simply stored academic knowledge. Rehearsing by applying what you learn in the safe setting of the workshop means you'll be prepared for using your new practices when you're back in the workplace."

Insulation and others
The roof was tiled (most of it anyway). We pushed ahead with the tiling job just so we can do work inside over the cold months that are still ahead. Insulating the roof becomes critical if we want to do any more work in the attic. So here we are. As we are going ahead with this job we are building the second level of the attic.
This is how much room we have left in the second level of the attic. Just enough room to have a quaint nook and cranny for the hotel.
Front roof
The floor joist for the second floor are going in. We have just enough room under them to run our pipes and wiring. To the right 4 of our guys can be seen taking the chimneys down. Each chimney has a 250 lbs stone on top to center it so taking it down (in one piece) is not a piece of cake. The job is dangerous and requires more brains than muscles. Scaffolding surrounds the chimney until it overpasses it so the stone can be moved and handles from above.
Same operation in the picture from the left, from a different perspective.

GinTing's MO is do what you love and do it more often. They believe that life is simple, and that your gin & tonic should be too.
Fabulously fruity, the gin bursts with big flavours like passion fruit and mango followed by fresh, tangy tropical fruit and grapefruit flavours with a hint of spice on the palate - immediately transporting you to a beach bar overlooking the sea (which coincidentally was where the idea for GinTing was formed by owner Kris and his wife).
A truly unique and flavourful gin, this is perfect served simply in a Copa over ice with a Mediterranean tonic and a side of beaming sunshine. Cheers!

Chapter Ten: Goodbye!
A Sicilian Diary of Nina Perkowski
With the blink of an eye, three months have passed and I am finding myself on a plane high above the earth, heading back to Berlin. The last days were hectic, as they usually are when leaving one life and heading towards another. Until now, I have barely thought about the fact that I am leaving Sicily, that my brief stay there has already come to an end. I have not felt the goodbye, have not realized yet that I will not be coming back any time soon.
Nevertheless, it is time to pause for a second and reflect on these three past three months. Did I achieve what I came to do? Was it as I had hoped it would be? In the last few days, many of my supporters and friends in Sicily asked me these questions. The truth is, I can't remember what exactly my expectations were before coming here. Did I even come with clear ideas and objectives?
What I can say is that it was an important time for me – it allowed me to reflect on things in a different and more intense way. Partly, that is because I found myself without any of my daily routines, without any institution or person who would expect me to turn up on a regular basis, without friends and family. There was the need to re-create a new life outside of any formal context such as university or work. And that allowed for free time to reflect on what I wanted to do with my time and what I thought would be worthwhile doing on an almost daily basis.
On the other hand, I reflected more because I was confronted with new realities and new frustrations in terms of migrant and refugee rights. Being on an island where more than 3000 people have arrived irregularly via boat this year was in itself already a significant change of my living context. In addition to that, the problems refugees and asylum seekers face in Italy more generally are of a different calibre than those they face in Germany.
In Germany, refugees and asylum seekers can rely on being provided with a bed, food, and basic medical care – which is a lot in the eyes of those who cannot access such support infrastructures. In Italy, refugees and asylum seekers similarly have the right to such support. As there exists a severe shortage of places in housing structures however, many end up sleeping under bridges, in parks, or in abandoned buildings.
Other issues asylum seekers struggle with then again are very similar: both in Italy and in Germany, people I spoke with complained about the waiting times before they hear a decision on their case (although at this time in Italy, waiting times are extraordinarily high as a result of the rise in asylum applications after the 'Arab Spring' last year), they suffer severely from the isolation in remote, collective camps and the condemnation to stay idle instead of work, learn the local language or train for a job. Isolation, idleness and increasing use of detention seem to be systematic in Europe more widely and cause tremendous suffering and psychological harm for individuals. Suffering that is not incidental and inevitable, but part of state policy that seeks to 'discourage' migration and pressure asylum seekers to return back home.
Going to Italy and finding out for myself some of the differences and similarities between it and Germany, where I had worked with asylum seekers in Brandenburg, was very insightful. As I had previously studied European and international law relating to refugees, the growing realization that there exists a chasm between what is codified in laws and what is practiced in reality in Italy was important for me. While I still struggle to accept this gap as given, I have begun to understand that legal and political reform on the EU level is not necessarily going to having direct positive impacts on the ground. Not only in the area of refugee rights, laws seem to work as guidelines more often than anything else, guidelines which may be followed but do not necessarily have to be.
More generally, I have begun to appreciate more fully that southern Italy's political system is different from that of northern European countries in some ways, that people's attitudes towards politics and politicians are more negative and that distrust prevails. Tales and stories about corruption, nepotism and mafia linkages are one significant reason for this, as is a history of exploitation and oppression by the north. Within three months, I only caught glimpses of the political and social realities in Sicily, and could certainly learn a lot more – yet I have felt and seen that they are significant differences from the countries I have lived in most recently.
Apart from initial insights into realities in Sicily, what else have I taken with me? Throughout the last three months, I have taken a renewed interest in some more 'fundamental' questions I had been grappling with already for a few years, but which I pushed away again and again. Right now, I am considering shifting my research interest away from EU migration policies and instead towards more basic questions such as 'how do you get people to care about others?' A talk with an asylum seeker in Mineo was important for me in this regard. After chatting for a little while, he said, "I know you are one of the good people. But your president, your people, they are against what you want. They don't want change in how we are treated." Polls all over Europe (and not only here) show how negative people's attitudes towards migrants are. Well-informed, critical articles on EU refugee policies in newspapers all over Europe often provoke hostile responses from readers, who seem to just want 'all of those people out'. In many of these responses, one finds not a trace of compassion – even when the article responded to clearly denounces injustices and difficulties and argues on behalf of migrants, refugees and/or asylum seekers. As long as voters remain hostile or indifferent, it will be difficult to convince politicians to reform unjust and racist policies. At the moment, I have the vague hope that I might be able to find out more about how it could be possible to foster compassion, interest, and engagement within people as my three-year PhD project.
Apart from this important change in research interest towards questions I asked myself already more than six years ago, I have obviously improved my Italian – and I have a renewed interest to work on improving it further also after my move to Edinburgh. In addition, I am taking a new sense of curiosity and warmth towards southern Italy with me. Despite of all its flaws and deficiencies, I did somehow fall in love with this region, and I very much hope to return, explore and learn more some day.
Ending my time in Sicily with a visit in Riace was a wonderful coincidence, which reminded me of the passion and determination with which some individuals do work for positive change. It still seems like a beacon of hope from afar, while I know that it also has its cracks and blemishes. Maybe it will be possible to return and understand it in some of its complexities one day…
For now, it will be time to focus on other things for a while. First of all a move to Scotland and the attempt to find my way back into academia. Getting used to the cold, the dark, the rain, to sitting in the library for hours, to a different way of talking and living and questioning. Building up a new life, once again.
With the blink of an eye, three months have passed. Part of me wishes I could hold on to this time just a little longer. The other part has long begun to plan and imagine the things ahead.
Nina Perkowski came to Sicily to research the living situation of immigrants from Africa in Sicily for her PhD. For borderline-europe, she reported the situation in Cassibile and Mineo, where there is a collective home for asylum seekers. Within ten chapters Nina wrote down her experiences and her monitorings.

Alizé Red Passion is a highly celebrated cognac based liqueur. First introduced in 1998, Red Passion has gained popular appeal through its popularity with rappers and influential celebrities, who included Red Passion in many of their lyrics, videos and celebratory events. Aside from popular culture, however, Red Passion is a knockout flavour sensation in its own right. Alizé Red Passion is characterised by a delicious mixture of exotic passion fruit, cranberries and peach, with a French Cognac base.
Alizé Red Passion, like the rest of the range, is delicious served chilled over ice, with lemonade or your favourite mixer, or as a substitute for the ultimate French martini.
Tasting Note: Opaque, plum red. Intense passionfruit and cream of coconut aromas. A round entry leads to a semi-sweet, tart, fruit drink palate with pronounced passionfruit flavours balanced by a touch of brandy.
