Here is what I came up with:
I ended up with two cards by doing this effect, and so mounted one on Sweet Sugar Plum cardstock and one on Tempting Turquoise. The sentiment came from a different set, Rose Garden.
I glued the top card down on an angle using foam adhesive strips and the second card - with just glue and I kept it straight. I thought these cards would be great to make up in a set if you needed to make multiple copies of the same card.

Circles of Hope Haywood County Circles of Hope Haywood County
Here's a sample of our volunteer opportunities:VIEW AS
Mission Statement
Circles of Hope is dedicated to addressing the underlying causes of poverty by supporting families and individuals in Haywood County as they work toward sustainable economic stability.
At Circles of Hope, we believe that responsibility for both poverty and prosperity rests not only in the hands of individuals, but also with societies, institutions, and communities. Our approach is a progressive model grounded in research that suggests low-income families must have strong social capital and connections within their communities in order to improve their economic situation.
As of January 2014, there were more than 80 Circles groups nationwide. The Haywood County, North Carolina, group started in 2011 and launched its first Circles in September 2013. The Circles consist of low-income Circle Leaders who enroll in Circles Leadership Training/Development to build financial, emotional, and social resources. In addition, each Leader creates an Economic Stability Plan that sets goals unique to his or her own needs and dreams.
Working with the Circle Leaders within the Circle are trained, middle- to high-income community volunteers, called Allies, who support the efforts of the Leaders to achieve economic stability.
Each week, Circles meet to discuss strategies for attaining prosperity and to provide peer support. Monthly Big View meetings feature community discussions about the systemic barriers to prosperity and strategies to remove them.
Circles of Hope engages entire communities in owning the solution to poverty. With an emphasis on collaboration and leveraging resources, Circles works with existing social/community services in Haywood County, North Carolina, to achieve stronger, more sustainable outcomes.
Circle Leaders who stay with Circles of Hope for the full 18-month program drastically increase their assets and earnings, as much as an 81% increase in income, based on the Circles 2011 National Impact Report. For example, a pre-Circle income of $653 per month increased to $1186 per month at the end of the program.

"American passenger rail is in the midst of a renaissance," says a news report that urges the completion of a national rail plan.
Released on Friday from the Brookings Institution, the report shows that ridership on Amtrak, the primary rail carrier, is booming—up 55 percent since 1997. Ridership is at an all-time high, with over 31 million Amtrak riders a year.
"In order for metropolitan areas to compete, they have to be able to provide several different options for people in how they get around, for how business leaders are going to connect with other business leaders in different metropolitan areas and then how these regions are going to grow in the future," said report co-author Robert Puentes. "We are seeing continued congestion on the roadways, perhaps deterioration of the roadways in some cases, frustration with the airlines and looking at Amtrak as a potential alternative to some of the other modes."
The bulk of the ridership, nearly 90 percent, takes place in the 100 largest metropolitan areas. The northeast has the biggest share of ridership at just over 49 percent.
Dominating Amtrak's use and growth are short (400 miles or less) routes, which the report refers to as "the engines of Amtrak ridership."
Despite calls for fiscal austerity, the report authors write that rail and operations "investments are as important as ever," and investments by states can be key. From the report:
Ultimately, Washington should create a dedicated and sustainable source of funding for intermetropolitan passenger rail. A recent report from the Eno Center for Transportation found that although 85 percent of Amtrak's operating budget is derived from non-federal sources like ticket sales, the remaining contributions are annual, highly politicized battles. A dedicated source of funding, such as a ticket tax, would provide at least a small share of the annual stability that Amtrak's supporters demand. For their part, states support passenger rail through a variety of sources, including annual appropriations. A better approach would be a dedicated state trust fund-style source fed by a direct source, such as a portion of vehicle sales tax, ticket tax, or car rental fees.
The authors conclude that "passenger rail in the United States is on the track to success," and
The upcoming reauthorization and finalization of a national rail plan on the federal level, coupled with increased attention on the role of passenger rail in states, make this the right time to focus on the future of Amtrak, despite the fiscally constrained times.

So the Privateers remained as they were: bases painted and primed people.
Shifting things around I had to move this warband and thought "Wouldn't hurt to have a monkey for Greystoke's Apes for Empire of the Dead".
So he got some paint!
I decided I wouldn't rebase him- he'll stay with sandy beach, And his colorful attire? Perhaps he works as a spy for Greystoke, begging for pence in the street and keeping an eye & ear out about goings-on in the city, and so this outfit helps draw attention and might loosen the purse strings of charmed gentry.
A very quick paintjob for the monkey, and maybe someday his human swashbuckler friends will join him...

Fianna Fáil Health Spokesperson Billy Kelleher TD has responded to Minister James Reilly's claims that the arrival of Cabinet colleagues into his Department's work is not undermining his authority but is in fact only happening because he has invited them in.
Deputy Kelleher commented, "After a weekend where his colleagues from both Fine Gael and the Labour Party were busy briefing against him in the Sunday newspapers, telling anyone who would listen about the dysfunction being created by his chaotic behaviour, the Minister and his handlers have tried the novel approach of claiming that this was part of his plan all along.
"This makes no sense and has no credibility. According to James Reilly, he is more in control of his budget than any other health minister in the history of the country. If we are to take him at his word, it would mean that every other account that has come from all his colleagues privately and in briefings to the press are simply lies. It would also mean that he has voluntarily accepted a budget target that he and his civil service colleagues accept is unachievable. It would also mean that he has voluntarily ceded authority over his own department and surrendered credibility as part of some cunning plan.
"Unfortunately for patients and their families, the truth is much simpler. As Fianna Fáil warned over a year ago and consistently since, Minister James Reilly is simply not fit for purpose. He has created an atmosphere of disorder and dysfunction, is waging an undeclared war on discretionary medical cards, has brought morale within the health service to breaking point, and remains standing outside the department telling people that everything is fine.
"Despite their public protestations, his cabinet colleagues have lost faith in his ability to deliver. Perhaps the Taoiseach will explain why he refuses to consider moving him, but more likely with his record majority to rely on, the Taoiseach will press on supporting his friend, regardless of the cost or impact that Minister Reilly's lack of leadership creates."

AUCKLAND - An ethical and sustainable fashion show has opened New Zealand Fashion Week for the first time in the event's 10 year history. By Rachel Johnson.
Starfish, a local sustainable clothing pioneer staged a show in which each garment has an eco-credential. The collection features eco- conscious fabrics, re-and up-cycled materials and natural textile treatment processes. Additionally, every garment is made onshore in New Zealand from locally sourced materials.
The collection's fabrics include: bamboo, hemp, organic cotton, merino, denim and silk, as well as a new fabric - Suri, which will make its global debut on the Fashion Week Catwalk. "Suri is a rare breed of alpaca sourced from Canterbury and its fibre is very fine, feels like silk and drapes beautifully", explained Starfish designer Laura Foon.
Even the collection's accessories are eco-aware, including organic cotton underwear, clogs made from New Zealand rimu (a large evergreen coniferous tree) and hats produced within the area.
Ms Foon said "to open the country's premier fashion event says a lot about where fashion in New Zealand is headed." She added, "The future of fashion is stylish clothes produced in an ethical way".
Starfish are also excited to open Auckland's first high-end ethical fashion store which will feature: Starfish designs, Terra Plana shoes, Nancybird Handbags, Kotow t-shirts, Veja shoes and Moki Clogs.
More at New Zealand Fashion Week.

Yeah its a good method for learning. How are you going to learn from your mistakes if you don't keep track of them?
It is very time consuming though but I am seeing improvement in RC.
Jeffort wrote:Quoting, bolding and super sizing this because of how profound and important it is! I often dream of a future when this will be common knowledge among students and I don't have to nag people to actually do it to see the benefit.
cahwc12 wrote:e thing you could be doing that I see some of my students doing periodically is not being confident enough in yourself to choose your answer and move on. By all means if you're between a couple answers, take the time (within reason) to get your answer. But a major problem I've seen is a student will quickly identify what is very likely to be the correct answer and then spend upwards of 1-2 extra minutes on that question trying to rule out beyond any doubt every other answer.
I call this "chasing ghosts" in RC. I'm not sure if I came up with that moniker or someone else did (probably the latter), but it's essentially when you are searching through RC for some piece of information that just isn't there. If there is no support for an answer choice, you're never going to find that 'not support' anywhere. Sometimes (often?) you'll find that an incorrect answer choice is a jumbling/scrambling/opposite of what was said. But often you'll encounter answer choices that simply have no basis. Be very, very cautious when you encounter information that you don't remember anything about. Whenever it happens to me and it actually is in the passage it's almost always early on in the passage while I'm still 'getting into gear' but most of the time, it's because that information was never there to begin with. Read carefully and trust your brain.
Being able to better recognize when these 'ghost answers' come up can save you a lot of time across a section.
Jeffort wrote:This is nothing new or different than the basic RC advice all good prep sources give that anybody that has prepped for the LSAT at least a little bit has already been told, but it is really important stuff since many people fail to do these simple basics.
It simply describes the way you are supposed to read the passage:
Read paragraph, pause, think about and determine main point(s) of that paragraph/summarize.
Read next paragraph, do the same as above.
etc. for each paragraph.
Then at the end list the main points of each of the paragraphs and think about how they relate to form the overall main point.
Go to questions.
It's the standard way you should be reading if you want to retain it well. It's the mental steps that you at first have to force yourself to do until they become habit. For some reason many people need to be told over and over that they should actually pause at the end of each paragraph and briefly think about what they just read to digest it before rushing into the next paragraph to try to quickly cram even more confusing material into their head. Many people don't force themselves to pause and think about stuff to process it while they read because they seem to think it takes too much time or some nonsense like that due to time pressure.
Read the passage to understand and remember the main points, and do that by pausing after and summarizing each paragraph as you go. Simple as that, if you don't read it that way, you'll have unnecessary trouble with the questions, so just do it.

Rescue Dogs Ready to Leave Shelter and Find Forever Homes
More than 200 dogs and puppies rescued from a commercial breeding facility in Estrie, Quebec last May—along with numerous puppies who were born subsequent to the seizure—are ready to leave the emergency shelter and be placed for adoption following weeks of care and rehabilitation. Humane Society International/Canada, the Quebec Department of Agriculture, Fisheries and Food and the SPA Estrie collaborated in the rescue.
Ewa Demianowicz, campaign manager for HSI/Canada, said: "These dogs were victims of negligence, and as a result suffered from serious health and behavioral issues. It makes me so happy to see them leaving our emergency shelter to find forever homes with loving families. We could not be prouder of their tremendous resilience and capacity to heal while in our care. Unfortunately, we still have work ahead for us because many more dogs just like these are still trapped in puppy mills across Quebec and are waiting to be rescued."
This was one of the largest dog rescues in Quebec history. Dogs of various breeds, including Shih Tzus, Pomeranians and cocker spaniels, were confined in a commercial breeding facility. Inspections conducted by the SPA Estrie led to the seizure of the animals.
HSI/Canada and MAPAQ are working with SPAs, SPCAs, rescue groups and humane societies to find loving homes for the rescued dogs and puppies.
This dog sheltering operation and rescue, carried out in cooperation by HSI/Canada and MAPAQ, was made possible in part with funding, much-needed sheltering supplies and pet food courtesy of Nestle Purina, Kane Veterinary Supplies, The Eric S. Margolis Family Foundation, Kruger Inc, The Montreal Gazette, and the kind donations of members of the public.

E-mail marketing is a powerful, cost-effective and measureable channel for marketers. An email can add greatly to your campaign and is relatively quick to create compared to other, more on trend, mediums such as infographics and videos. The beauty of email marketing is that results of your effort can be measured instantly.
1. It's all about the subject line
If the subject line is not good enough your email will never be opened and read. Be relevant and engaging. Know your audience and make sure it is meaningful and fits the content of the email. Good strategies are to ask a question or highlight a benefit. Also do not use words such as "free" or "sale" and stay away from using capital letters and exclamation marks in order to avoid your email being blocked and going straight to your receiver's spam folder.
2. Less is more
Unless you are a big brand and people know you (we are talking about the likes of Nike, Harrods,…), it is a good idea not to use a lot of pictures in the email header as they won't be displayed automatically in many email clients. This means unless a recipient clicks on view pictures she/he will not know what the email is about and most likely delete it. Additionally, having a big picture as the email header will only display as a white empty box in a preview pane and therefore the email will most likely be deleted. Often less is more and a simple text heading explaining the nature of the email has been proven to be more successful.
3. Don't use red
Colour matters. Strong, contrasting, colours generally perform better than colours that blend in with the background theme. It is proven that conversion is often improved by a third just replacing a green button with a red one. But red should never be used in emails as spam filters will most likely block emails that use red text which means that the our carefully drafted message will never be read by the receiver.
4. It must work on mobile devices
Often people check their emails on the go or in lunch breaks. Make sure they can easily view and click your email on the go. If you email includes a call to action (which it should) such as buy a product or download a white paper, the receiver must be able to have a mobile experience all the way through the end. This also includes paying via the phone.
5. Test, test, test
Every audience is different. Do not just assume that you know what your audience wants. Test it! By testing subject lines, from names and different preview panes as well as different times and days you can steadily improve your email marketing campaigns and achieve greater open rates and click rates and therefore the highest number of conversions.
The five points are a good start to optimise your email marketing and get better results.
Happy emailing!

It's been ages since I last blogged about my sewing adventures. With all my good intentions, it's been nearly impossible to blog. Kudos to my fellow bloggers! It must be a full time job! I really lack the dedication and on top of that, I lack the time. Being a homeschool mom keeps me quite busy and my only free time is when my kids are at the homeschool co-op a couple of days a week. That's when I can sew, provided I don't have errands to run.
The Panama Tee and Dress pattern has 3 options. View A is a tee, view B is a knee-length dress and view C is a an ankle length maxi dress with a slightly flared hem. It also comes with a three sleeve length option: short, half and long. I made the knee-length dress and the tee.
Take 1 is view B with half sleeve in a mystery knit I bought a while ago from the remnant table at Hancock Fabrics. Based on my measurements, I cut a 10 in the bust and hips and a 12 at the waist. With my fabric being a medium cotton spandex knit with a high stretch factor I had take about 1/2 inch from each sides. With heavier knit, I don't think I would need to remove anything from the width. I didn't make any major changes to the overall dress except for removing 1/2 inch from the sleeve cap. The bust as it is didn't bother me a highly stretchy knit but I am wondering if an FBA would be need with a heavier knit like ponte.
The fabric curled up like crazy which made sewing it challenging but is quite comfy to wear. I made a one and a half inch hem so the dress would be a little over my knees. I've worn the dress several time since finishing it and got many compliments. A long sleeve color blocked version is already cut and ready to sew.
My dress while not as loose as Alina intended it to be, is not fitted either. I kind of like it this way. Depending on the fabric you choose and your body type, this dress will not necessarily produce the same results.
Take 2 is view A, the Tee version is by far my favorite. Give me stripes and lace and I'm a happy camper I was inspired by a top I saw on shopbop.com.I used a striped rayon spandex knit and a black stretchy floral lace. If you follow me on Instagram you probably saw the early stages of the lace placement. It was fun but time consuming given the fact that the top itself is extremely quick to sew.
Thanks Alina for allowing me to test my first pattern! Be sure to check the Panama Tee and Dress pattern!

I've been working on my first series of art quilts - a challenge with two other artists (one a painter, one a potter) for an upcoming gallery show - my first - in February. We are using the theme "refractions" for the challenge, and we are each to come up with 10 pieces. One of the definitions of "refraction" is what happens when something passes through another medium and changes (like light passing through a prism). We decided to each do a piece based on one of the other artist's work, translating it through our own medium. Eileen (the painter) did a lovely canvas of a sunset over Lake Cowichan, just north of us on Vancouver Island. I loved it. I took a Quilt Design 2-day class with Katie Pasquini Masopust earlier this year, and used her idea of subdividing the sections to add interest. I loved doing this, and look forward to the next one I can try another of her excellent suggestions on.

We are fortunate enough to live on 40 acres of land in which the kids can explore and build on.
As Unschoolers, our children learn from their interests and passions in life. When they are interested in something, it is all they want to be doing - exploring, researching, learning and doing their passion. This is the natural way humans are meant to learn. When we don't mess with the natural processes, amazing things happen! Our children create, grow and learn SO much!
Devin has enjoyed the process of creating this so much. He has learned about setting traps and finding edibles in the forest. He has taught me so much that I never knew. He says he plans on being dropped off in the middle of the Canadian forest someday with only a hand saw for a month. I applaud his enthusiasm.

I read a quote from Milton Berle today…it said "laughter is an instant vacation" and who of us couldn't use one of those, who am I kidding, in these days and times laughter it seems is a very powerful medicine for the things that are happening around us, not to mention in our own little corner of the world. As laughter lightens the load so does stepping out of our everyday life and into a bit of relaxation with a group of friends, a loved one, some family members. This is where a Bed and Breakfast is a perfect respite for just such relaxation, reconnecting and laughter. Nothing warms my heart more as an Innkeeper then to hear laughter and conversation within the walls of our Inn, knowing that people are once again connecting to each other in a way that maybe has been lost in the hustle and bustle of the world around us.

Hi, Stefan,
Your comment about making church fun through the creativity of the pews reminded me of going to church in my childhood. Our minister had a monotone voice and sermons seemed to drone on forever. And so I studied the stained glass windows, memorizing every nuance of design. The art was what made [that] church bearable. — Great photographs!

Your subsequent commentator has said quite something meaningful as well, but besides that, no, I might be the strange exception, and so I am interested in opinions someone has worked hard for (if so; I'm sorry, my English is quite not existent, but I'm lazy by nature).

Growing up in the church, literally as my father was a clergyman, I think this love for ecclesiastical architecture is deep rooted in my psyche. It's where communities have always tried to show their 'best' and the buildings are often works of art. Sadly this isn't the case any longer (look at any modern church or government building) but we still have plenty to admire!

Our Strategy
In strong rental markets, Westland purchases older, rougher apartment communities and invests up to $10-20k per unit into upgrades to achieve a $30k value growth per unit.
Westland achieves these results by merging decades of apartment ownership, and management experience with niche properties (i.e. apartment properties in a condition that is unattractive to institutional investors and also beyond the scope of expertise or resources of individual investors).
Westland's process generally takes 6 months to complete the upgrades and another year to stabilize the income with higher paying tenants. As soon as the property and market are stabilized, the apartment complex is sold.
Westland's Proven Strategy
Through booms and busts and in-between, shelter is a basic human necessity. With stricter borrowing guidelines on home ownership, demand for rental housing has increased and so have rental rates.
Rising rents have ignited a boom in new apartment construction pushing rents higher because of new construction costs. To compete, many real estate investment funds are turning to large apartment complexes in prime condition at elevated prices, resulting in limited returns.
The demand enhances a niche opportunity for Westland to upgrade existing apartments of smaller size receiving below-market rents in order to offer competing amenities to new construction, but at a much lower cost, and for a much higher return.
Where others see problems, we see opportunities.
Westland's team finds properties, typically under 100 units, priced well below replacement costs due to poor condition or management. These problem properties are the opportunities with the potential for significant rent growth with an upgrade, new management, and a modified tenant profile. We establish a specific plan to achieve each property's potential, purchase it, and perform strategic upgrades designed to enhance its value to prospective renters. Then we maintain our advantage and maximize returns by experienced, effective asset management through the life-cycle of the investment, which is typically 2-4 years.

The Denver Broncos and head coach John Fox have agreed to part ways.
The Denver Broncos have agreed to mutually part ways with head coach John Fox, the team announced on Monday. Jay Glazer of Fox Sports first reported the news.
Fox met with Broncos general manager and vice president of football operations John Elway on Monday afternoon, when the decision was made.
Before Denver's playoff game on Sunday, Fox Sports' Jay Glazer reported that there was a "pretty good chance" Fox would be available if the team lost. The Broncos went on to lose 24-13 at home to the Indianapolis Colts in the divisional round of the playoffs.
• MMQB: Loss to Colts kind of looked like Peyton's last stand
According to NFL Network's Jeff Darlington, Elway informed Denver's entire coaching staff that they have permission to look elsewhere, and that the new head coach will decide whether to retain them or not.
"On behalf of the Broncos, I sincerely thank John for his many contributions during his four seasons as head coach," said Elway. "He helped establish a positive, winning culture for this team and deserves a lot of credit for the Broncos' turnaround.
"While we have made significant progress under Coach Fox, there is still work to be done. I believe this change at the head coaching position will be in the best interest of our long-term goal, which from day one has been to win world championships."
• Report: Peyton Manning played last month with torn quad
Fox has been Denver's head coach since 2011, leading the team to a 46-18 record in four seasons. The Broncos made it to the playoffs each year, reaching Super Bowl XLVIII last season and being eliminated in the divisional round the other three years.
Fox previously served as head coach of the Carolina Panthers from 2002 to 2010.

Internet activist, a creator of RSS, is dead at 26, apparently a suicide

Aaron Swartz, a wizardly programmer who as a teenager helped develop code that delivered ever-changing Web content to users and who later became a steadfast crusader to make that information freely available, was found dead on Friday in his New York apartment, The New York Times reports.
At 14, Mr. Swartz helped create RSS, the nearly ubiquitous tool that allows users to subscribe to online information. He later became an Internet folk hero, pushing to make many Web files free and open to the public.
But in July 2011, he was indicted on federal charges of gaining illegal access to JSTOR, a subscription-only service for distributing scientific and literary journals, and downloading 4.8 million articles and documents, nearly the entire library.
Charges in the case, including wire fraud and computer fraud, were pending at the time of Mr. Swartz's death, carrying potential penalties of up to 35 years in prison and $1 million in fines. …
RIP, Aaron Swartz by Cory Doctorow

Raizo FuwaRaizo Fuwa a 25-year-old man is the main character in this manga. He is certainly a reckless and irresponsible person. He lives in a very cramped apartment. He works in a small office which later will change into a home office, because the building that was supposed to be used as an office is condemned as unsafe because the construction company has been cutting the expenses for making it. His life started to change from this point, he had to give up his own room in apartment to be used as a temporary office and then he had to live together with Hiyama Izumi a 15-year-old girl that his company hired. He thinks like he was in some kind of hell to live with a girl 10 years younger, he must able to control his every desire as an adult. There were times that he couldn't control his desire anymore, but luckily there were always breaks that stopped him from doing anything to Izumi. He has a dream that he can have his own house, but he knows that such things were only a mere dream, but his passions never run out. With the help of Izumi he lived his life the to fullest.(taken from wikipedia.org)

Tolkien's second novel (The Final Witness, 2002), set in 1959 England, mixes an old-school murder mystery with courtroom melodrama.
Professor Cade was well known for his knowledge of illuminated manuscripts, not for his warm demeanor and people skills. He was estranged from Stephen, his only biological son. Someone pierced his lung with a rifle bullet during a trip several years ago, and one can assume it probably wasn't because his personality was too winning. Entertainment at the evening meal at his manor house usually consisted of Sergeant Ritter, who served under the professor in France during the waning days of World War II and then as a housekeeper at the manor, mercilessly berating Cade's adopted son Silas. His assistant, Sasha, secretly hated the professor's guts due to the underhanded tactics Cade used to secure tenure, ruining her father in the process. Yet, despite being surrounded by people who despised him, when Professor Cade was shot through the head one night in his study the evidence against Stephen was so overwhelming, Inspector Trave, the man in charge of the investigation, had no choice but to lock him up almost immediately. Stephen was duly charged and tried, but as the trial dragged on, Trave began to have his doubts about Stephen's guilt. In any event, he began to wish he'd spent some time looking into certain unpleasant events involving Professor—then Colonel—Cade that happened in a church in northern France at the end of the war, something to do with a mysterious codex and an ancient, jewel-encrusted cross. Although ostensibly set in the late 1950s, Tolkien's book never captures the era. Apart from the plot's dependence on events that took place at the end of WWII, there is nothing to anchor it to the time.
Competently done, but largely forgettable.

Little Miss O.
In the past year, three of my closest friends in Nacogdoches have had babies (two in the past week alone!). As we've welcomed new additions to our ranks - including Olivia, Ruby June and Andrew, not to mention Ruby's older sister, Rees - my friends (the Queens of Southern Hospitality) have made it a habit to organize a meal delivery service for the new parents. In the past, we've set up a shared Google document and invited friends and family to sign up for days, knowing that the dinners and desserts we deliver have given our friends time to rest and bond with their new babies.
A few weeks ago, my friend Sonnie found a website that has made this whole process a million times easier. It's called MealBaby and it's totally free. You create an account, complete a questionnaire about culinary likes, dislikes, allergies, etc., and then everyone can sign up for a day and note what they're bringing (because no one wants two solid weeks of mac and cheese - or do they?). MealBaby will also send you a reminder email the day before your dinner is due, which has been nice.
And even though it's called MealBaby, you can use it to organize meals for anyone going through a life change. A surgery, an illness, a death in the family. For someone who equates food with love, the chance to help a friend through a transition - whether it's the joyful welcoming of a new child or the sad goodbye to a loved one - is one I cannot pass up. And speaking of helping - do you have any other ideas or advice on how to support people who are juggling newborns? Having only had puppies, I know they need more than a baby gate and an extra bag of dog food, but as for specifics? I'd love some fresh ideas.

Before fermenting, culturing, and sprouting became common phenomena on Meals with Morri, I thought I'd give you a fun recipe that is easy to make and popular at any get-together: macaroons. Simply put, macaroons that a wide spectrum of people can enjoy.*
The macaroon is that type of confection that I have to be creative with, or use other sources as a starting point and go from there. It sometimes is made with flour, and it usually has cane sugar, both of which (if you know me by now) my body is not a fan of. So then I look out into the unknown of cyber space, and used the Google search engine with terms like "GAPS macaroons" and "Paleo macaroons". And I kind of find what I'm looking for… but not really. I did see that plenty of people made my kind of macaroon, but I didn't want to use a liquid, dairy free or otherwise, and I didn't want to open a can of coconut milk just for a few tablespoons of the "cream".
There was, however, a lone banana on the countertop, softening and browning to the point that all you can do with it is bake it in the oven, wanting to be used in a creative and loving way. I was struck with an idea, and it was a huge hit among the family. So it is with great pleasure that I give you The Monkey Mac, the dairy free, grain free, and above all healthy indulgence you've always wanted.
Monkey Mac(aroon)s
300 g Raw dehydrated coconut flakes
84 g Honey
1 Ripe banana
30 ml Coconut oil
2 Large eggs
Pinch of sea salt
Preheat the oven to 350ºF.
Combine 200 g of the coconut flakes with the other ingredients in the food processor until a loose ball can form in your fingers (not exactly thoroughly combined but not too separate either).
Pulse in the remaining coconut a few times, and then scoop out the mixture one heaping tablespoon at a time onto a cookie sheet lined with parchment paper.
Bake for 18 minutes, or until golden brown in some places.
Serve at room temperature or chilled.
Makes 24 macaroons.
* Herbivores, I'm in the process of making something just for you!

Company History
Marenica Energy ("ASX: MEY") was incorporated in New South Wales in 1978 as Buddha Gold Mines NL, later changing its name to South West Goldmines NL, then to West Australian Metals NL (WME) in June 1990. In May 1999 WME acquired all the shares in the unlisted company Bronzewing Gold Ltd. The company's status changed to West Australian Metals Ltd in January 2002.
In November 2009 the Company changed its name to Marenica Energy Ltd in acknowledgement of its flagship project the Marenica Uranium Project, Namibia.
MEY determined in late 2011 that the high development and operating costs of its low grade uranium project was sub economic at uranium prices below ~$100/lb using conventional processing technology. MEY had to substantially lower the project operating costs to ensure survival. MEY formed a Technical Steering Committee in early 2012 to manage development of an alternative process for the low grade Marenica ore. Outstanding results were achieved and a new process (U-pgrade™) developed. U-pgrade™ is now the focus of MEY's future through its wholly owned subsidiary (UB).

Guest Post: by Brad
Scenario #2: The Financial Crisis of 1998
The causes of the Russian financial crisis of 1998 are complex and varied. I do not purport to understand all of these factors fully, and the factors that I do understand I will not attempt to explain in detail. I will, however, attempt to summarize the causes of the crisis before describing the aftereffects.
Prior to the collapse, the Russian economy was being driven primarily by selling commodities on the foreign market, as well as borrowing on the foreign market. However, when the Asian crisis occurred and commodities prices were decimated, Russia had difficulty paying the interest on its debts. A question for you: does the thought of a market segment collapsing (*cough* real estate, government debt, entitlement programs, etc.), leaving said market in a spot where it is hard pressed to pay the interest on its debt, sound familiar at all to anyone? Anyone? Bueller? In any event, the Russian stock, bond, and currency markets collapsed in the early fall of 1998 as a result of investor fears that the government would devalue its currency, default on domestic debt, or both. Again, sound familiar to anyone? (QE? QE2? QE3?) Markets tumbled, as well as the value of the Ruble. The banks shuttered as there was a run on the banks as people tried to withdraw their money to buy tangibles before prices and inflation decimated the value of their fiat currency.
Literally in the span of one month the value of the Ruble as compared to the dollar had decreased by 2/3. Therefore, when people were finally able to access their money once the banks reopened, it would only buy 1/3 of what it would once buy. Can you imagine having $100 in the bank today, only to go tomorrow to try and withdraw it and find that the bank was closed, and when you do manage to finally withdraw your money, it is only worth $33? That is devastating.
Again, you may be asking "Okay, but what does this boring history lesson have to do with anything?" Here it is.
When (in my opinion it is "when" and not "if") fiat currency loses its "value," those holding said fiat currency to the exclusion of tangibles lose. And lose big.
During the Russian collapse many of the folks who had cash on hand foolishly and impulsively went out and spent it on things that they were brainwashed by the media into thinking were important to have. Things like watches, televisions, and other electronics. They foolishly thought that the government would provide the necessities like food and water for them. Therefore, they figured, they could buy "nice things" and the government would take care of the "mundane things" for them. Mundane things like food and water.
What they saw literally two days later would turn their world upside down. Within days of the collapse there were–without hyperbole–guards with machine guns guarding the food in grocery stores. Guarding the food at outdoor markets. Guarding the food at corner convenience stores. The food had been piled up in the middle of the floor and the guards encircled it. You had to show your cash to even be admitted entrance to the grocery store. And you either had to have cash that was not denominated in the now worthless Ruble, or you had to have A TON of Rubles. A ton. Think wheelbarrows. People began to grow hungry because there was not access to food. Fist fights in the streets began to break out over bread and sugar. Break-ins and thievery grew exponentially. Long lines were created if there was even so much as a whiff that a store had cooking oil. People began foraging in the woods for mushrooms and berries. Fishing was everyone's new way to stay busy. A barter economy started up on the streets.
That is what post financial collapse Russia looked like. And it looked that way for several months. No food. People spending the overwhelming majority of their fiat currency to buy meager morsels of bread.
So, what's the lesson here? I suppose there are a few. First, fiat currency systems are fragile and subject to systemic failures. Second, and as stressed above, stack your larders deep and tall. Third, if you do have cash on hand, don't buy foolish things. Fourth, and perhaps most importantly in the context of the "Houston We Have A Problem" post, don't be fooled: folks will fight for food. In Russia they do not have an armed populace; we in the USA, do. The fists I saw flying in Russia over a bag of mushrooms could easily be bullets here in the USA flying over a box of Uncle Ben's Rice. Stay off the streets, practice OPSEC, and be prepared for violence because it will happen. I assure you it will. Finally, a financial collapse can happen suddenly and quickly and have ruinous effects in almost no time at all.

I was born in British Columbia, Canada, but spent most of my youth on the beaches of Maui. Throughout my life, I've been fortunate enough to explore my passions. I've had harrowing experiences as a helicopter pilot, drying cherries in the desert mountains of Washington state. I've toured with a band down the eastern seaboard in a $2,000 van, surviving on Arby's fixins, and selling CDs for gas money. I've built websites and designed logos for businesses all over North America. Of everything I've tried, writing fantasy is by far the most exciting and fulfilling.
My whole life I have been fascinated by stories. Especially the kind of stories that transport you into incredible worlds where the impossible becomes real; where epic battles between good and evil rage across the centuries. This sense of escape and wonderment are what I hope to embody within my own work.

I just finished the book and I have to say I was absorbed into the world and story immediately. I loved the characters and enjoyed the ride I took following their exploits. Thanks so much for a great read and I can't wait to see where this awesome story leads

I just joined your website.
So, looking forward to your stories and their character development. I like the idea of a Muses in the world, to inspire mankinds achievement and endeavors. Expression of ambition, feelings, and desires in ones writing, is truly an inspired gift.

I love all the stamps that fit nicely on the button card die. The possibilities are just endless as to what you can create. To top off the button card, I used real buttons and layered fabric buttons. The button dies cut through paper, fabric, thin chipboard, fun foam as Piney showed us, cork and so much more. Under my button card I added a doily die cut with a stamped sentiment.
To finish off the bottom of my card I used a scrap piece of a die patterned paper from Green Boutique. I stitched this onto carnival tickets that were embellished with a 25 cent stamp from the Button Boutique set. A Ripe Avocado ribbon finishes off the card.
I've been needing a few more stash cards so I can't wait to ink up this set again.....and more images from the Friendship Jar Spring Fillers.

Newsweek magazine has defended its choice of Irish Prime Minister Brian Cowen as one of their top ten politicians worldwide after widespread scepticism in Ireland where the government and its leader are deeply unpopular.
Spokewoman Jan Angilella told the Sunday Tribune that Cowen was well respected abroad if not at home
She said that the article 'Go to the top of the class', which put Cowen in the company of leaders such as China's Wen Jiabao and France's Nicolas Sarkozy, "isn't a comprehensive profile of each leader".
"We looked at leaders worldwide who are facing tough economic and political environments, many of whom are making unpopular decisions, both fiscally and socially. While many of the measures that world leaders are taking right now are indeed controversial, some countries seem better poised to bounce back in the long run, and Ireland qualified for that criteria.
"We noted in the piece, running a country is a thankless job and Cowen is unpopular at home. However, abroad, his fiscal measures seem to have won some respect, and Ireland may be starting to see the glimmers of a turnaround – consumer confidence is rising, the economy is showing signs of modest growth."
Newsweek's article said that despite Ireland's economy being "staggered by the banking crisis", Cowen and "his able finance minister Brian Lenihan are prescribing harsh medicine.
"They've pushed through austerity packages drastic enough to win the admiration of the international community… but the Irish aren't showing much gratitude – Cowen's ratings have plunged to a mere 18%, and his Fianna Fáil party can expect a drubbing in the 2012 national elections. Still, there's some hope that his government's unpopular measures will be rewarded in the long run: surveys suggest that Irish consumer confidence is on the rise again, and the economy notched up modest growth in the first quarter of 2010."

The Live Group Sex Therapy Show
Fri, Jan 18 & Sat, Jan 19, 8 pm
Shelter Theater
Vicente Guerrero 4
Col. San Rafael
200 Pesos
Reservations: 154-7524
Susan Page: So for those that have not seen you, what is The Live Group Sex Therapy Show?
Daniel Packard: Hard to say. I guess I'd call it the bastard child of a one-man comedy show, on-the-fly love therapy session with, of course, world-class wiener jokes.
SP: San Miguel audiences seem to like your show because it's smart, insightful and really challenges them.
DP: Yeah, this isn't another fluffy "Wow! Men and women sure are different" kind of show. I'm drawing from my work as a professional dating and relationship coach, so these are the deeper truths and blind spots that I've seen keep people–and myself really–from the deeper love we all seek. Deep stuff with a fun delivery, that's what the show is.
SP: You've come back five years in a row, and it's been a hit every time. What is going to be different this time?
DP: Every show I do is a caffeinated tight rope act, teetering between improvisational brilliance and just sheer performance chaos. In years past, I wanted to be liked and so I played it a bit safe. But this year I am really going to just let loose and see what myself and the audience can come up with. I am both scared and excited.
SP: And what topics will you cover?
DP: The short answer is that I'm not really sure; the audience will help me decide. But I think I am maturing as an artist and as a person. I am less angry and see now the struggle so many of us deal with, with more clarity and compassion. Also I recently became engaged, so I have a whole new Amazon.com warehouse full of material to draw from.
SP: And then you are doing a workshop on Sunday the 20th?
DP: Yeah, for those that want to go deeper, I am doing a three-hour workshop with my fiancé, Lindsay Chrisler, who is also a "love coach." It's called "Find Them Faster: A Practical, Magical, Radical Guide Tt Lasting Love." It's for men and women, singles and couples. If you want more love in your life, this will give you some meaty insights to ponder and put into practice. FindThemFaster.com has all the details.
SP: What surprises you about San Miguel audiences?
DP: I was performing last year and the crowd that night was mostly 60 and 70-year-olds and I thought to myself "Oh boy, I bet they are going to clam up when I get to the sex material." Instead, that is the part they liked the best. When I started talking about sex they erupted like kids on Christmas morning. So this year, more sex talk for sure.
Susan Page is the author of six books about relationships and director of the San Miguel Literary Sala and the San Miguel Writers' Conference. She sat down with Daniel to talk about his upcoming return to the enthusiastic audiences of San Miguel.

Wildlife Removal in Rochester, Buffalo, Syracuse and Western NY
Have you ever thought about what your wildlife problem is costing your business? The decay of bird droppings on your signage, HVAC units, walls, and products. Squirrels chewing wires. Bats in cavities of walls ensuring droppings and urine are present within your walls, ceiling, and attic. The answer? Thousands to tens of thousands annually if the conditions are right. Have you had to replace an entire wall in an old historic building because of bats? I have. Just this past year two of my larger projects were bat damage oriented.
Ok, let's talk about birds for a second. What happens when birds are on your roof and signage? Well, first of all it looks pretty lousy. Second of all bird droppings (especially sea gull, and pigeon) are extremely caustic and will decay stone, metal, and permanently discolor wood. This can easily cost you more money than removing the problem. Yes, yes, I know. Of course I am going to say that. That's the business I'm in. However, think about it. Permanent solutions for your parking lot, signage, roof, HVAC system, etc. The increased decay of each of these can get costly quickly. Besides depending on your clientele they may wish to shop in a non-bird infested place and leave you with countless unmoved merchandise. At JacopilleBornheimer, we handle everything from bird removal, to raccoons, to squirrels and more. We are located in both Rochester and Buffalo, NY.

Our dedicated team provides you and your family with all the advice and resources to make your decision to attend college as easy as possible. Once you enroll, you will have access to an academic advisor throughout your educational experience.
Some frequently asked questions about going to college...
Why go to college?
It's fairly simple: the more you learn, the more you earn. Generally speaking, people with a college degree earn more over their lifetime than those without one. Even without a degree, the knowledge and skills you get in your college classes can give you a competitive edge when applying for a job, starting a business, or changing careers.
I'm not sure what I want to study. Can you help?
Yes. Click or tap on the "Request information" button below. Complete the short form and one of our advisors will contact you.
How long will the application process take?
It takes just a few minutes to finish the online application. After completing it, you'll get your welcome letter and registration instructions in the mail in a few days.
How much does it cost to go to SC4?
Tuition at SC4 is about a quarter to a third of the cost of most four-year institutions.
Is there financial help available?
Absolutely! Around sixty percent of SC4 students receive some form of financial aid.
What if I have trouble in a class? Or if I have special needs? Is there help available for me?
There sure is. We have one-on-one tutoring, accommodations for students with physical and learning challenges, a Math Center and a Writing Center, our TRiO Program, and much more. Learn more about the Achievement Center.
Can I start at SC4 and then transfer to a four-year college or university?
Yes! Many SC4 students plan to get started here, completing their Michigan Transfer Agreement general education requirements or a two-year associate's degree, and then move on to complete a bachelor's degree elsewhere. Let us show you how.
I'm still in high school. Is it possible to start taking college classes before I graduate?
It sure is. We have many high school students who also take college classes. Find out more about starting college as a high school student.
When do semesters begin and end at SC4? Are there breaks?
Take a look at our current Academic Calendar for all the details.
My parents have questions about college in general, and SC4 in particular.
Can I visit your campus?
We'd love to meet with you! Schedule a tour.

Cottage for Rent
Been wondering what all the scaffolding was around Blackheath Gate Lodge? Wonder no more, my friends. Rebecca has just told me that it's to be rented out to make more cash for the park, which can't be a bad thing.
I went to Knight Frank's website for a poke around, but annoyingly they'd second-guessed that nosey Phantoms would be skulking about and there's nothing more to be seen of the place on the website than what you could get just by walking past. No photos (apart from something much like the one above but without the scaffolding,) not even a floorplan, though it does mention three bedrooms, a modern kitchen and a bathroom with a roll-top bath, which I'm guessing is not the one that AD Webster put in a the back in 1899.
Bizarrely, considering he actually lived there, Webster makes no mention of the place in his book. Perhaps it wasn't particularly interesting to him – it was only built in 1851, which would have made it barely fifty years old, and it might have been considered a bit of an old-fashioned eyesore. It was built in sugary mock-Tudor by John Phipps, and, by the sleek Arts & Crafts times of the late 19th Century, it was probably thought a bit ugly, with its Gingerbread House bargeboards, patterned bricks and curlicues.
AD Webster spends his time moaning instead about the the demolition of the Keeper's Lodge (and orchard) which it replaced. It's a bit weird to think of residential houses in the main body of the park, but this one was right up by Queen Elizabeth's Oak – and not insubstantial at that – from the picture it looks like a farm.
But that's for another day. Back to the Lodge at Blackheath Gate.
Of course I've been trying to peer inside for years, with very little luck. But it is possible to apply a spectral eye to knots in the fencing around the large garden at the back. I've always coveted that garden – it's practically empty, except for a couple of roses and a swivel clothes line. It's just crying out to be made lovely again.
Sadly, I suspect that, at the prices they're asking – £1,295 a week – anyone renting will not be considering it a long-term enough thing to create gardens. The Telegraph reckons it will suit "a country-loving banker." I'll look forward to one of those.
Whoever does get it will have their own private access to Greenwich Park when no one else is allowed in – it would certainly be a wonderful thing on New Year's Eve, to be able to stand on One Tree Hill and see the fireworks – but I'm not sure it wouldn't also be ever so slightly creepy at times – a place with so much history, with so many ghosts.
Not that that's something that would bother a Phantom, of course. Darryl Spurgeon describes the lodge as "a fantasy building." I suspect it will remain just that for most of us…

Here in my blog i realized that it had become my walks of life especially things happen on the weekend. So here's another weekend im posting just to remind myself how lucky i am surround by those people n how grateful i still live up to this year. Thank U Allah. Ayyy..~touching.
Went to Zue's brother wedding with my former coursemates- Fafa, Shik, Ain, Aya and Ibnu( odd ~) on Sunday. Some pixs on Ain's hand coz i didnt bring digicam, i only snap some using my cellphone. Its like a mini reunion with our 8th gang G08 except that Nita n Ummu not around town-replaced by Ibnu lah.I went with fafa n shik(mrr2 way) while ibnu pick ain n aya (Federal way ) and met up at Zues condo at WangsaMas near Setapak. Quite amused that the wedding held on the 6th floor up there with nice swimming pool landscape. yawn.. it makes me wanna marry soon. miang :-p
While tunggu federal way gang sampai, we sit by the bench n ngumpat mengulas/cuci mata tentang orang ramai. makcik2 sungguh.
The best thing is that ader dancers n pesilat. Both of the things yg i involved in uni days.. Waaa so memorabilia. I join the dancers club in times where they are short of dancers so shik yg selaku JKM kolej mengajak aku. I was totally flattered n happy sangat cos i really love dancing be it traditional or gila2 kinda dance. Tp semestinya ak tidak clubbing. 🙂
lagu Kurik-kundi i dance at KRP's dinner kt Astaka Budaya with moon, amiey, pesot, awang, nazmi, pikachu and ** (xingt name..how comeee).
p/s will upload more..

Simple and Sweet.
I love Valentine's Day. I love hearts. I decided to make some heart garland for Lily's room today. It turned out so cute! I was really pleased with how it turned out, so I thought I would share with y'all how I did it. Good idea? Good. Just in time for Valentine's Day!!
My first tutorial!
Gather your supplies.
The great thing about this project, is that you probably already have everything on hand. I dug through my fabric stash and grabbed any pink or red fabric that I could find. What makes this even more special, is that some of the fabric I used is from Lily's great grandmother.
You'll also need a stencil (or you can free hand it), pinking shears and a fabric marker.
Fold the fabric so the wrong sides are facing. Trace a heart and cut with the pinking shears. Using the pinking shears helps to prevent the fabric from fraying. (Plus it looks cool.)
Keep the right sides facing each other.
After all your hearts are cut out, sew along the edge of the 2 hearts (wrong sides facing). This way the hearts will stay together and are reversible. I cut about 30 hearts, but you can do however many you prefer.
Finished hearts!
After you finish sewing the hearts, lay them out into a pattern that you like.
Almost done! Sew down the center (from top to bottom) of each heart. Don't stop the sewing machine, just keep feeding the hearts through the machine. One right after the other. I kept my foot on the pedal and let the machine sew a few stitches in between each heart.
Ta Da!! The finished project. I love how it turned out!
Hanging pretty in Lily's room.
I hope this helps you to make something pretty for your house this Valentine's. You could even alter this project for any holiday or party. Please let me know what you think, and I would love to know if you made this!

The most adorable cottage door and the perfect colour. All most reminds me of The Secret Garden with the leaves and plants. One day i hope to have a home with a door like this.
I like the idea of having a seating area to look out the window, read a book and have a countryside view to look at. Just perfect.
I'm in need of a new sofa, this would look great along with the cushions too! Minimal but still have a vintage feel.
I'm loving the idea of finding an old TV set/stand and transforming it into a drinks cabinet. Paul loves a small glass of whiskey at the weekend so this would be perfect for all our bottles to sit in. Love the mustard colour too!
Duck egg blue kitchen! Its almost dreamy to have a old fashioned sink and taps, to look out of the window to a wonderful view or pretty flowers in the garden.
I fell in love with this picture as soon as i saw it! Very retro with the black and white flooring, 4 legged bath and a shelf unit used to keep your towels. Love it!
High ceilings, open space, clean colour scheme throughout, fresh breeze coming through the window and a roaring fire in the winter seasons. Beautiful.
Our plan to move to the country is on our minds a lot lately but were going to wait until after the wedding. There's no real rush but id like to be moved before i have a baby for sure. This house were in just isn't ideal for lugging a pram in and out, let alone room for a cot in our bedroom!
Have a wonderful day everyone! Im off into the kitchen to bake a cake :D
Much love

Notre Dame Fighting Irish coach Mike Brey and All Big-East guard Ben Hansbrough have been recognized for their extraordinary seasons on the court. Brey was named Big East coach of the year and Hansbrough was awarded Big East player of the year. And off the court forward Tim Abromaitis was recognized as Scholar-Athlete of the year. The announcements were made Tuesday night during the first round of the Big East tournament.
Mike Brey is no stranger to this award. He won it for the third time in five years. The Notre Dame coach led the Irish to a 14-4 Big East record this season after being picked 7th in the preseason. The 14 wins match the Fighting Irish record for conference wins. Brey's team is ranked 4th in the nation, their highest ranking since 1980.
Upon being hononred Brey remarked "It's very humbling when you think about the guys in this league."
The Mississippi State transfer, Ben Hansbrough, won the award with intense competition from St. John's Dwight Hardy and UCONN's Kemba Walker among others. Hansbrough was delighted upon hearing the news of his award on Sunday. "I'm thrilled to be an example of what hard work and believing in yourself can be all about," said Hansbrough.
The brother of North Carolina standout Tyler Hansbrough was third in Big East scoring with a team-high 18.5 points a game and led his team with 4.2 assists. He is ranked top ten in seven different statistical categories in the Big East including steals and three point shooting.
He is the fourth Notre Dame Fighting Irish basketball player to earn player of the year honors. Luke Harangody, Troy Murphy and Pat Garrity won prior.
