Can you think of anything better than taking someone a daisy bouquet that will never die? Me either!
So today I'm posting just that…
How sweet is that?
I used this arrangement today at my New Catalog Open House and added Baby's Breath to fill it in. I should have taken another pic for you, but I'm so tired right now, I can't move.
Suffice it to say as cute as it looks here the Baby's Breath did add to the overall look.
This little pail (which I got at Ikea) is about 5″ across and it took 15 daisies to make it look this full. I made three taller ones, five medium and seven short ones.
There are three different colored flowers:
- White with Daffodil Delight sponging
- Pink Powder cardstock with Fresh Fig sponging
- Pink Powder cardstock with Berry Burst stamping and sponging.
All have Daffodil Delight cardstock 1/2″ circle punched and stamped with detailed center stamp.
I curled one petals under on one layer and left the top layer flat. Hot glued together alternating petals.
There is a Styrofoam ball cut in half hot glued inside the pail to hold the arrangement. The top of the ball was covered in hot glue and shredded paper added on top.
Florist wire was twisted in a circle and bent flat. The flowers were hot glued to this flat area.
The pail was decorated with Berry Burst 3/8″ Ribbon and a half flower (all hot glued) and the label was made with the Pretty Label Punch and stamp set.
This whole thing took me about 30 minutes to put together. I think I'm going to keep it for a while on my desk. It just makes me happy to look at it.
Hope you are having a great day and plan to stop back by tomorrow.
Here's your "B-ism" for today…
today is one.
Come get inky with me…be HaPpY!

As many know already, there is something big being built in the place of Mean Streak. We have noticed Rocky Mountain Construction has started to convert the previous Mean Streak structure into a big, modern hybrid coaster, and it looks beastly.
Looks like Cedar Point is still keeping their plans for the new ride a secret by only showing a blank area with construction vehicles where Mean Streak resides.
Also, check out the new area on the map for Cedar Point Shores for 2017!

Labor plans strike-force coast guard
Page Tools
The Australian Federal Police will have on call a new fleet of eight high-speed vessels with 25-millimetre cannons under Labor's revised coast guard policy, to be unveiled today.
Labor will also introduce a new sea marshals program, similar to the Federal Government's air marshals, which will see officers posted at all the main seaports and able to board suspect ships.
This, with a number of other new national security measures, will be funded by savings made because the coast guard vessels are likely to be leased rather than bought, and will be armed for civilian law enforcement rather than war, as originally planned.
The cost of the coast guard, which has been fully costed but was last night yet to be approved by Labor's expenditure review committee, is expected to be $400 million to $500 million, compared with Labor's original figure of more than $600 million.
The homeland security spokesman, Robert McClelland, will introduce the substantially reworked policy - a main part of Labor's election border protection strategy - in one of the most marginal seats, the Government-held Solomon in Darwin. Most of the coast guard resources would be based in the north.
Labor has dropped its plan to spend $180 million on three 80-metre vessels with war capabilities, instead choosing a "more bang for your buck" approach. There will be three 55-metre vessels - each with a helicopter pad and a 6.5-metre rapid intervention vessel - and five 35-metre vessels, all with cannons.
They would be able to travel 200 nautical miles, to the edge of Australian waters, unlike the 80-metre boats, which would have had "deep sea" capacity.
Labor says it is more economical to have more cheaper, faster vessels with shorter ranges.
It has also scrapped plans to buy three military-style helicopters. Instead, it is looking at leasing three twin-engine "marinised" civilian helicopters capable of landing on the larger boats, at a cost of $30 million over four years. This would save $72 million on the original plan.
The resources of the coast guard, additional to the existing eight 35-metre patrol vessels operated by customs, would be incorporated into the Australian Federal Police.
Mr McClelland said yesterday that the main emphasis of the reworked policy was "that we're increasing the number of vessels to give the coast guard broader coverage".
When Labor first flagged in March a revised coast guard policy, the Government mocked it as a "coast guide" of motor boats and water taxis.
Mr McClelland said that by incorporating the coast guard into the AFP it would be more effective, since officers could not only hold suspects on detained vessels - as customs and naval officers now do - but have powers of arrest and prosecution.
"The coast guard is a very significant part of our border protection strategy," he said. "All undesirable citizens and indeed undesirable substances, for example narcotics, all come into Australia from overseas, so the coast guard will be a vital part in that border protection function."
Under the plans, voluntary coast guard organisations will get $80 million instead of $124 million.
Labor will also allocate $31.5 million over four years to develop a coast guard regional maritime intelligence network. The Australian coast guard will work with a US coast guard force and authorities in South-East Asia.

Is steering through a turn versus leaning into a turn influenced more by skill / riding style, bike / geometry, or tires and/or tire pressure? I know the ground surface will play a large role since it's sort of hard to lean into a turn when the turn is sandy or loose granite. It seems to me that I should be able to lean into turns more often when I'm on trails in Prescott or Flagstaff, but I always feel like the front end wants to wash out when I try.

Celebrating Women in Sport and Physical Activity - Profiles
Patti Rowe - 2013 Honoree
Patti Rowe, professor of movement science
In the early 1960s when she was in high school, Patti Rowe was told that she did not belong in a chemistry class. She was also informed she could not take the drafting class she wanted.
"I was told those classes were for boys," she said.
Those actions quashed her curiosity about pursuing careers of a physician or architect, but did lead her down the path to making a difference in the lives of countless students.
"I was told my choices were to be a teacher, nurse or secretary, and I was directed down those paths," Rowe said. "But I was pretty determined. I thought I could make a difference in physical education and do the job differently than the instruction I received while in school."
At the time, physical education classes for high school girls meant a competitive, intramural style of play in three sports. Rowe said she and other girls who were not athletically gifted had limited opportunities to develop any kind of sport skills. "We sat on the sidelines," she said.
Because of those limitations, Rowe was convinced she could teach better PE classes. "I wanted to teach a new kind of physical education that would be more positive for the average student, like me, who was not an athlete," she said.
Rowe earned bachelor's and master's degrees from Central Michigan University and a doctoral degree from Michigan State University. Her passion and drive eventually led her to teach students who would be the kind of physical educator she envisioned; in 1984, Rowe joined Grand Valley's Movement Science faculty.
"My job now is very connected to my past and the lack of opportunities I had," she said. "I can help help develop teachers who would see the need for fun, physical activity for every student and not just the athletes."
Rowe has dedicated herself to establishing an excellent PE teacher education program at Grand Valley, while also advancing the physical education curriculum in K-12 schools statewide. She has received numerous campus and professional awards; in 2011 was recognized by the Michigan Association for Health, Physical Education, Recreation and Dance as its "College/University Leader of the Year."
She said being a namesake with Joan Boand for the new endowment fund is an honor and a humbling experience.
"I'm so excited about the endowment. This has the potential to do wonderful things," Rowe said. "Students will have extra funds to travel, to apply for grants; it will open new doors."

Chattisgarh: Centre seeks report on jailbreak
December 17, 2007 19:14 IST
The Union Home Ministry on Monday sought a detailed report from the Chattisgarh government on the daring escape by 299 inmates of the state's Dantewada jail.
"The Home ministry has asked for a detailed report and directed the state government to beef up security and surveillance in and around jails in Chattisgarh," a spokesman said.
In a planned action, 299 inmates of Dantewada jail had escaped yesterday after overpowering the prison guards.
Union home secretary Madhukar Gupta spoke to the state police chief about the jailbreak and suggested tighter measures in and around jails to prevent such incidents in future.
The jailbreak came barely two days after the meeting of the Naxal taskforce in Bhubaneswar on December 13 and 14, where the issue of providing more security in jails had figured prominently.
The Naxal-hit states were advised to use night-vision devices and make better lighting arrangements in and around jails after the Jehanabad jailbreak in Bihar two years ago when 341 prisoners were freed.
Sources said the state government authorities have been asked to increase manpower in jails and provide better training to jail staff besides installing latest gadgets to keep a tab on the activities of jail inmates.
The home secretary had written to all states in September this year on the need to increase security in prisons and address the problem of overcrowding.
In his letter to the state governments, Gupta had also mentioned about the need for implementation of prison reforms. The Centre provides funds to state governments for modernisation of prisoners.
The home minister also drew the attention of chief ministers to reports about prisoners having prohibited items in jails.
He had also mentioned reports that terrorists and criminals in jails were networking with their accomplices outside the jail premises.
The MHA has been sending advisories to states from time to time asking them to tighten security in jails by giving priority to monitoring at the highest level so that there was no dereliction of duty by the jail staff, sources said.

There seem to be two good sites with wizards that walk you through everything: Go Vote Absentee and Long Distance Voter. Going into polls and waiting in lines seems like an anachronism.

Pulse of Freedom
"The Pulse of Freedom is a site published by the protesters at Martyrs' Square, Beirut, from a tent city." This is an inspiring story: "A group of Web masters, graphic design artists, writers, and photographers stayed up all night for several nights in a row putting the Web site together." They chose WordPress. "As far as I'm aware this is the first Web site of its kind anywhere in the world. The leaders of a democratic revolution are openly blogging about their experience from the center of the action." Echoditto writes about their part in Blogging from Beirut. "I am writing this post from a tent city in the Martyrs' Square in central Beirut, a place which is filled with the energy and excitement of a burgeoning democratic movement."

Charles Platt on FCC
I got this via the Politech list and it absolutely made my day. From Charles Platt.
The FCC ruling pleases me in a way. Any shortsighted policy that discourages consumers from watching broadcast TV or raises the price of equipment for receiving broadcast TV is a step in the right direction from my point of view. Broadcast TV is an entrenched politically sanctioned zone of zero effective competition, with all the usual consequences. In addition I think it helps to make people stupid. Ideally it should be taxed into oblivion, but crippling it with DMCA measures is better than nothing I guess.
Of course even more ideally the FCC should be abolished and the airwaves should be auctioned, but that isn't going to happen. Since government appears to be unavoidable at this time, it should behave as self-destructively as possible.
A good summary of the FCC ruling is available at the Washington Post.

A 32-year-old homeless felon was sentenced to five years in federal court in Seattle for gun possession on Thursday. Richard Floyd Blake, who lived in the woods in Seattle, fired shots over Interstate 5 in August of 2009. The freeway was shut down in both directions, and Blake was arrested after a two and a half hour standoff with police.
Read the complete news release issued by the U.S. Attorney's Office on Friday:
RICHARD FLOYD BLAKE, 32, a transient living in a wooded area in north Seattle, was sentenced yesterday afternoon in U.S. District Court in Seattle to five years in prison and three years of supervised release for being a felon in possession of a firearm. BLAKE was responsible for the gunfire on August 28, 2009, that shut down Interstate 5 in both directions around 9:30 in the evening. BLAKE was apprehended in the woods near North Seattle Community College after a two and a half hour stand-off with police. At sentencing U.S. District Judge Thomas S. Zilly said BLAKE showed extreme indifference to the incredible danger he posed to the surrounding neighborhood and motorists on the freeway.
According to the plea agreement, on the evening of August 28, 2009, multiple people called 9-1-1 reporting the sound of gunfire over the freeway near North Seattle Community College. Some callers reported seeing tracer rounds crossing over the freeway about five feet above the cars. Responding officers determined the gunfire was coming from a wooded area between the college and the I-5 freeway. The freeway was shut down, and the King County helicopter and a Washington State Patrol plane were able to spot two men hiding in the woods. SWAT officers attempted to take both men into custody – one surrendered immediately, but BLAKE ran into the woods and attempted to hide from officers. After a two and a half hour stand-off, officers moved in and arrested BLAKE. Under the language of the plea agreement, BLAKE claims the other man arrested in the woods fired the majority of the shots. However, all the evidence gathered in the case points to BLAKE as the shooter, and Judge Zilly rejected BLAKE's claims at sentencing.
A search of the woods revealed two backpacks containing various weapons and camping material including: a box of shotgun shells, the book "Anarchist Cookbook", a United States Army Special Forces medical manual, a sheathed fixed-bladed knife, miscellaneous camping supplies, as well as printed pictures of different assault rifles, advertisements for gun parts, and two receipts – one for a rifle stock and another for a rifle barrel, both of which were in BLAKE's name. In the second larger backpack officers recovered a Norinco (North China Industries), model MAK90, 7.62 caliber semi-automatic rifle (an AK-47 derivative), other miscellaneous gun parts, two sleeping bags and a tent. A further search of the woods turned up 18 shell casings for the large caliber ammunition.
BLAKE was convicted in 2002 of Robbery in King County, Washington. In that case BLAKE robbed a mini-mart clerk at gunpoint. Because of that conviction he is prohibited from possessing a firearm.
In asking for a sentence above BLAKE's guidelines range, Special Assistant United States Attorney Andy Colasurdo notes the inherent danger in BLAKE's actions saying, "his decision evidenced an extreme indifference to human life. Each and every bullet fired from that weapon endangered the lives of every single person traveling along that portion of Interstate 5 that night, not to mention all the citizens located in the densely populated residential neighborhood on the east side of the interstate."
BLAKE was prosecuted as part of the Project Safe Neighborhoods program. Unveiled in May 2001, Project Safe Neighborhoods (PSN), is a comprehensive and strategic approach to gun law enforcement. PSN is a nationwide commitment to reduce gun crime in America by networking both new and existing local programs that target gun crime and then providing them with the resources and tools they need to succeed. Implementation at the local level — in this case, in King County– has fostered close partnerships between federal, state and local prosecutors and law enforcement.
The case was investigated by the Seattle Police Department, King County Sheriff's Office, Washington State Patrol, and the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms & Explosives.
The case was prosecuted by Special Assistant United States Attorney Andrew Colasurdo. Mr. Colasurdo is a Deputy King County Prosecutor specially designated to prosecute firearms cases in federal court.

How did my boyfriend get Chlamydia?
Sarah M.
I have a very confusing situation. My boyfriend and I have been together over a year. We both had partners before each other, but have always used condoms. Since we have been in this relationship for a year, and have both been tested for STIs, and I am on birth control, we have started to use condoms less....
Can you become less sensitive because of sex and masturbation?
I'm a 19 year old girl and I've been masturbating since I was 14. I usually do it every day, sometimes more than once. My boyfriend is quite willing to please when it comes to oral sex, but lately it isn't doing much for me. Even masturbation is less satisfying than it used to be, and needs a firmer touch....
What is erection?
What is erection?...
I'm late to the game: have I had an orgasm yet?
I am in my late twenties and have never had an orgasm.I have only become sexually acquainted with my body in the last couple of years and can now get myself to the brink which is really intensely pleasurable but I get no sense of release I would expect to associate with an orgasm. Am I just expecting too much? Am I having orgasms but they are just not what I expect?...
Up, up and away.
Hello my question to you is this, I am 26 years old and have an ED problem. I have always had this problem. I can get an erection but I can't keep it long enough to have intercourse with my partner. Do you know what someone my age has this problem for?...
I got her pregnant, and I just can't deal.
My girlfriend has been acting all shifty around me. I thought she'd gone off me and I started ignoring but then I started to hear rumours that she was pregnant and it was my kid which shocked me cause we're always so careful. I kinda confronted her when she told me it was true I freaked and completely flipped out at her....
I need EC NOW, but I can't get it in my country.
My boyfriend and I had intercourse last night without protection and he accidentally ejaculated inside. I got my period on Monday, November 5th, so I am not sure whether or not I might end up pregnant since it's almost been a week and usually when a girl has intercourse during her period it has been proven to tend to accelerate the period process during sex, which causes the period to stop....
Why is intercourse still hurting me?
Hi, I am an 18-year-old female and I have just recently lost my virginity. I always heard the first time was painful, but I have had sex well over 20 times now and it is still painful each time. Once his penis is in completely and the thrusting begins, it does not hurt me, but the initial pushing of it inside is very uncomfortable still....
What can I do to get her to orgasm: am I the problem?
My girlfriend and I have been together for about 2 months now, and we have been having sex for about a month. I am unable to get her to climax. She has only had sex with one other person besides me, she only had sex with him one time, and she didn't like it when they did it. She had sex with me for the first time because her friends were pressuring her....
Oral sex and herpes
Well I had my first oral sex when I was 13 and we did not use a condom. I went to the doctor and he said I don't have any diseases or anything. Then I had my second oral sex when I was 16 now. I just went to the doctor and he said that I don't have any disease or anything again....
Masturbate smarter, not harder
i am a boy, 17, and obsessed with masturbation. i do it more when i'm home alone. sometimes my penis hurts. but i think the reason i do it so much is that i don't get enough pleasure. sometimes the fluid just runs out and i don't feel a thing. also, i tend to feel tired. please help!...
Slow Yo' Roll
Hi, I'm 15 years old and I have 2 questions. In school, at home, and a lot of the time I have an erection, is that normal? And also, when I masturbate, I ejaculate really soon. How long will it take for me to last long?...
A Wrist-ing Development
When I give my boyfriend a handjob, my wrist always gets tired long before I can get him off. See, he likes it really fast, so I tire quickly and end up feeling like I failed. He's a really good sport about it, and "helps me out" while I rest my arm a little (usually he gets me to start again when he's close), but I'd still like to know if there's anything I can do to get better at it? ...
I like her, she likes me; we're thinking about sex, but feel uneasy.
I'm a 14 year old boy. There is this girl that really likes me and I feel the same way about her. We want to have sex, but we're both uneasy about it. What should we do?...
Are coldsores herpes?
Do coldsores mean that you have Herpes? My friend told me that coldsores were a sign of an STI. I had my first coldsore when I was 9 years old and I was definately not sexually active. I haven't had one since but I am afraid that I might be carrying Herpes. I know lots of people who get coldsores on a regular basis and I just don't understand how all these people could have Herpes....
Was this rape?
So, I got my boyfriend really horny, and I told him we weren't going to have sex anymore today and that I didn't want to be fingered, but he put his hand down my pants anyways. I kept saying no because I didn't want it, but he's stronger than me and ended up fingering me anyways....
He wants oral sex, but I don't want to give it.
He wants oral sex but I don't like to give it. What should I do?...
Can a girl get pregnant if she's on top with no condom?
enrique g.
Can a girl get pregnant if she's on top with no condom?...
Why are my nipples small?
Natalie O.
Why are my nipples small?...
Does it have to go in deep to result in pregnancy?
I would like to know if shallow penetration can get one pregnant, or does only deep penetration make one pregnant?...
Why can't I feel anything during manual sex?
I have been fingered/fingered myself and I KNOW its supposed to feel GOOD. But, when I've gotten it done/done it myself I CAN'T FEEL ANYTHING. No pleasure, pain, NOTHING! I mean yeah I can feel there's something inside of me, but it's not like anything. I don't know, is there something wrong with me? Why is it like this?!...
Stamp Out Cramps (Without the Pill)
Is there anything other than birth control that will help lighten my period and relieve cramps?...
Did my doctor abuse me?
I had to go to the doctor for a sports physical for school. While I was there my doctor made me take off my clothes and he looked at my breasts and vagina: was he allowed to do this?...
Why won't he orgasm?
Every time I try to make my boyfriend ejaculate (whether it be a hand job or head) he never does. I have done it for up to 10 minutes constantly, and he never ejaculates. Am I doing something wrong, and what can I do to fix it?...
Is part of my vagina hanging out?
This is a little bit embarrassing but one part of my vagina hangs out by about two centimeters and I'm really self conscious about it, and I'm worried it isn't normal. Sorry if this is an obvious question I just really need an answer....

U.S. Women Hockey Team Beats Canada
Published 7:00 pm, Friday, January 4, 2002
Krissy Wendell scored two goals, and Natalie Darwitz had a goal and an assist to lead the United States women's hockey team to a 3-1 victory over Canada in an exhibition Saturday.
The Americans beat Canada for the sixth straight time and improved to 25-0 on their pre-Olympic schedule. Canada fell to 11-6.
Wendell gave the United States a 1-0 lead with a power-play goal at 3:44 of the first period. Canada goalie Kim St. Pierre attempted to clear the puck from behind the net, but it deflected off Darwitz to Wendell, who was alone in the slot. She scored into an unguarded net.
Jayna Hefford tied it 1-1 at 3:11 of the second. Hefford carried the puck over the blue line, deked and slid a backhander past goalie Sarah Tueting.
Wendell's second goal gave the United States the lead for good. Wendell picked up a loose puck near center ice and raced in for a breakaway.
Darwitz's power-play goal at 1:38 of the third made it 3-1. With Hefford and Colleen Sostorics in the penalty box for Canada, Darwitz lifted Tara Mounsey's pass over St. Pierre's shoulder.
The United States was 2-for-8 on the power play, while Canada finished 0-for-4.
The teams will meet twice more before next month's Salt Lake City Olympics.

It's Digi Page time ~ again!
Our county faire is coming up in a couple of weeks ~ now that's fun. Really small town America. I love to go and see the demolition cars, that's a lot of fun!
I did some re-arranging on my page and added a few buttons. Take a peek at the sidebar and you'll see.
Thanks for stoppin' by!
Happy Weekend to you!
This page was made with paper from Paper Salon. It is the Enamored collection. It was from last year and I can tell you that it is my favorite!! I still have just a bit left, scraps that I'm saving!
I did have one more page that I did, however the picture is awful fuzzy. I will re-take the picture and post it. It's another Halloween page. Yes, I love Halloween! It's one of my favorites to decorate for.
I'm not sure if anyone here has any plans for today or not ~ so I'm not sure if I will get any crafting done. I hope to, but it is the weekend. I like to do family things on the weekend.
Whatever you've got planned for the weekend I hope it's great!
Have a great day!!

It's Digi Time!
This was Ricky and I in August 2005. It was just before we moved out here, at his sister's house. This was also me 25 pounds lighter and him, well, 50 pounds lighter.
I created this using more than one kit. I used kits from Summertime Designs (you need to go there and read the last post, it will bring a tear to your eyes), Bouquet of Pixles and DigitalArts Cafe.
Thanks for letting me share my life and my craft with you all!
I've been a little busy...
She had been eyeballing Mom's card organizer and I asked her "pick a color". I sometimes do that, then I just go from there. She picked burgundy, so I looked thru my paper and this is what I came up with.
I pulled out some burgundy linen cardstock that I had and the Parisian Summer DP that I was keeping. I had some thin chipboard that hubby brought home from work and my Mod Podge (great link, take a look at it!!) ~ I love that stuff! I covered the chipboard and covered it with the DP and ribbon. I also took a piece of the burgundy paper and cut out a top note die and placed it on the top.
When we originally made these we followed the directions on SCS and they had pockets for each month. Well, we don't use the pockets because we have so many birthdays that they would not fit in all the pockets. We store our cards elsewhere. So I just used the burgundy paper and only made one page with pockets in the back of the book. I left it pretty blank so Joyce can decorate it how she wants. I did decorate the back pocket pages because I wanted to bind it and it was easier to stamp the pockets before binding it. She's a butterfly lover so I knew that I could not go wrong so I used my TAC set Butterfly Swirls.
Next I made a card tracker for her. The card organizer is to add birthdays to so you don't forget. The card tracker is more for tracking holidays. If you write down the holiday that you sent the card out then you know that you sent it. You can also track if someone has sent you a card too.
I basically did the same thing with these covers. I took the thin chipboard and covered it with Mod Podge and added the paper to it. I used paper from SU! Bella Rose collection - that's my favorite! I did decorate this one up a bit because like I said, it's my favorite paper and I just had to have fun with it! Once again I used the top note die and I added some ribbon, buttons and rub on's from American Crafts.
Yes, she loved them!!
I hope this is enough for today. I did get a late start today. I don't know why I'm so tired in the mornings - I can't get out of my own way. I really don't sleep well at night, I know that could be the problem. But I'm not spending too much time on the computer today, I need to craft! And I've got a bum sewing machine I've got to tackle, oh yes - laundry too!
Have a great day!
EDITED TO ADD: I printed the inside pages of the Card Tracker at Mini Scrapbooks. I have the link posted in my sidebar if you'd like to check it out.

Ready for a digi page?
Gotta few things to see....
I thought that I'd put his name on the front cover so I cut those letters out with my Cricut Base Camp cartridge. I use that one for most of the lettering that I do, it's a nice font and it's easy to adhere. Then I covered the letters with stickles to give it a little "pop". Since I don't have a star punch I cut the stars out by hand and added some stickles around those edges too. For the inner pages I just adhered some paper and a few photo corners here and there. I stamped in a few places where there can be journaling added with my TAC set I Remember When. On the last page I stamped the little fishbowl from TAC's Everyday events and added some diamond glaze to it to make it look a little more realistic and I was done.
If you get a chance go check out Jan's blog too! Make sure that you let her know that I sent you.
My next card is a Father's Day card that I made for Ricky. I'm sure that I will have to make another from Danielle too, I don't mind. Guy cards are just a little tricky. I'm used to pretty colors and flowers and frills. You sure cant do that on guy cards.
Mom recently got the SU! set And Many Mower for Father's Day so I had to ink it up. I wanted to put the image of the lawn mower on the card. I actually had it stamped, colored and cut out and did not use it. I do that a lot then I toss them on Mom's desk. She's got a little envelope full of things that I did not use ~ she eventually uses them. It's easier on her. Anyway, I stamped the sentiment from And Many Mower and colored it in. It says "recliner, remote, refreshments" but I stamped the word "relax" colored it, cut it out and used pop dots to adhere it to the card. I thought that it was a little more appropriate. Then I pulled out my Let's Hear it for the Boy set from My Favorite Things. I stamped the image, colored it and cut it out and adhered it to the card. I did not like how the headless image sat on the card because I cut it out from the frame of the image so I stamped the frame from And Many Mower and used that ~ so now it all matches!
The base card is Kraft cs that I layered with Pacific Point and some DP from SU! old Spring Flowers collection. I kinda distressed the left side of the DP before adhering it. I took a length of ribbon and added a piece of Chocolate Chip to it and then added some small eyelets to the ends and adhered that to the card. All in all I think that it turned out manly enough, what about you?
I think that is all I have for right now. I'm working on a digi page to show you later. I hope that you have a great day!

Another Digi SB Page
This page was from The DigitalArts-cafe. It's called Grandma's House. Dont you just love it?
Well I'm off again. Gotta go create something with real paper this time.
Is it Wednesday already?
I think that I mentioned that I've got to stock up on birthday cards, Danielle's used a lot of them up. "Hey Mom, so and so's birthday is tomorrow. Can I get a card?" Well what am I going to say? No... I should have her sit with my and make some up, she used to. But that's not a cool thing to do when your a teenager. Maybe someday she'll want to spend time with her old Mother... Can you tell I'm starting to feel the "40" coming on? Just a few more months, ugh.
Anyway ~ on to the card. The base card is Ballet Blue. I stamped the swirls from my TAC set Simply Devine with versamark. I then stamped the images from TAC's Little Cupcake and colored them in with my pencils and gamsol. I also paper pieced the cupcake with TAC paper from the Mulberry Meadow and Lily Anna collections. Saving those little scraps comes in handy sometimes. I layered the image panel on to Barely Banana and Riding Hood Red. I stamped the sentiment in the lower right corner and layered that also. Once the card was put together I added some stickles for some sparkle and I was done.
The next card was kinda a quick card. I'm not only trying to stock up on birthday but all cards in general.
The base card is Barely Banana that I layered with More Mustard and Garden Green. I stamped the weave pattern from Wonderful Weaves with More Mustard ink. I then added a length of the large twill ribbon I "found" in a box of ribbon I had. I stamped the daisy from the DD Daisy set with More Mustard, Always Artichoke and So Saffron inks. I layered that on to a piece of More Mustard cs that I paper peirced and then on to a piece of Garden Green that I tore. I stamped 2 more of the daisies and cut them out to add to the card front. The sentiment is from Curvy Verses that was also stamped in More Mustard . I was thinking that it needed a little sparkle, but I'm not sure.
Well - I'm off to pay a few bills and I'll be back tomorrow with more!
Have a great day!!

Another Digital Page
Good Memorial Morning!
Friday, May 22, 2009
Please be patient....
I was on the computer with on line chat for about 4 hours total today. And I still don't have the problem fixed... But instead of the "abort" message that I am getting when I log into blogger it let me log in now.
So I wanted to just give you all the heads up so you know that I am here ~ kinda.
I will try to work on the problem this weekend, so keep your fingers crossed for me.
I hope that you all have a safe and happy long weekend!

Thanks for coming back....
One of the orders I had placed for a friend when TAC was having their sales on the hostess sets. Joyce had bought the set, and one thing that I do for my customer's is if they want their sets cut apart I do it for them. I have a hot knife and it only takes me a minute to do. Well I told Joyce that I was cutting them apart for her that I was going to stamp a few... good deal, huh? So I did. Then of course like everything else, and I'm sure you all can relate ~ they sat on the corner of my desk for a couple of weeks. I grabbed them the other day and decided to do something about it...This is a Hostess Level 3 set from The Angel Company called Be of Good. I stamped some of the images on Certainly Celery with Certainly Celery ink. I stamped the sentiment in Certainly Celery on white cs and the image over that in Blush Blossom ink. I layered that on to a piece of Summer Sun cs before attaching to the card. For the inside I stamped the image on Barely Banana cs with Barely Banana ink. I stamped another sentiment in Barely Banana on white cs and centered it on inside.I had stamped the butterflies in Barely Banana ink on white cs and cut them out closely. I added some wire to the butterflies for the "antenna", pop dotted them on the the card and added stickles for some bling and I was complete.
OH! I wanted to mention, if anyone is interested in the hot knife do wait to buy it. A couple years ago I finally decided to unmount all of my SU! stamps. Mind you I have a LOT of sets. It took me just over a week to do. I was at it literally the whole day, morning to evening. I unmounted my stamps, removed the old grey foam and replaced it with the black thin foam and cut it out with my Kai scissors. I did not have the hot knife then, but so wish I did. It is an investment that pays for itself each time I use it. It takes seconds to cut out the stamps, and you don't have that gunky mess on your scissors too! But if you are considering the purchase of one, I'm here to tell you that you don't have to buy a glass mat. I want to say they are about $25.00 for one ~ and I saved my $25.00 and I use an old pie plate. Same thing, it's glass. And it has a rim on it to turn the plate and the glass mat doesn't. Anyway, just my 2-cents....
This was part of a sneek peek that I showed you the other day. I'm in a swap that the theme is Patriotic so I reached into my stash of House Mouse stamps. I had a whole lot of them and sold most of them years ago to Gabby, but this one I kept. It is called Patriotic Wrap. Those little guy's are so cute!
I colored the image with my watercolor crayons and pencils and gamsol. I sponged some Ballet Blue ink around the edges. The base card is Ballet Blue and I layered it with Riding Hood Red and Reminisce Glitter Bursts DP. I also added some stickles to the stars for more of a pop. The sentiment is from Peddler's pack, and I stamped that in Ballet Blue also. Even with all the coloring it was a quick card.
Another one of my sneek peeks the other day was this little box I made.
This little box is something that I gave away with my last TAC order. I try to make something to give away when people order from me. It's just my little way of saying thank you again.
This little box is made with the largest Scallop Rectangle Small Nestie. Say that 5 times fast *Ü* Anyway ~ I used my CB Devine Swirl and Love Language folders to emboss the paper. The paper is from the Mimi TAC collection. I used my scor-pal to score the box and I used my 1 3/8" circle and scallop circle punches. The button is from Fancy pants, and I used a length of ribbon to make the handle. Velcro is used to keep the box closed.
I will try to get to the tutorial in the next day or two for you.
Next thing I want to show you is some more of the digital scrap booking. I have fallen in love with this. It is so much fun!! And there is so many places out there that have the free digital packs to download. I showed hubby last night and I kinda, quickly went thru the process and told him it is so much fun without having to buy the tape. Of course being the smarty pants that he is he said "well then, why don't we put up all that stuff in the craft room on EBay and you can just do this instead". Uh, my answer was a quick and simple "no".These pages are made with elements and papers from The Digital Arts Cafe. I even went out and bought a new SD card that's 8MB to hold all my "papers and elements".
Well, that's all I have for today. I think that it's time to get off the computer and start creating something....
Have a great day!

Why Me??
Monday, May 18, 2009
I just wanted to pop in and let you know that I am still here. Today was a busy day. Of course it did not help that we went to be last night after midnight because we were with our noses in the TV. Then when I went to bed I just "had" to finish a book I was reading ~ all the while knowing that 5:00am comes way too early.
Betty stopped by this morning to pick us up and we were on our way to Anne's house for another wonderful stamp camp. Anne is such a gracious hostess ~ and a very talented paper crafter. Anyway, when we left there we went to the scrap store in Frankfort. It was Betty's first trip there and we all enjoyed it! So now we are home and we are pooped! I'm ready for a nap, but I just got a copy of The Da Vinci Code and I've got to start reading it. I want to read it before I see the new movie - just to brush up on it.
I wanted to share with you something today, so here is a digi page that I made of Danielle's birthday Saturday. Just something quick, I made it from a download Daisy Daze that I got at Bouquet of Pixles.
I'll be back tomorrow!! Thanks for sticking with me.
Sunday, May 17, 2009
Good Sunday Morning!
I'm not sure if you all go to Brenda's blog or not ~ but if you don't you seriously need to bookmark it! Just about every week she has the Michael's coupon up. She's also had other's too. So if your in need of a Michael's coupon go there!
Yesterday was little Ms. Danielle's birthday and boy did I surprise here. I'll tell you more about it tomorrow ~ and I'll be back with some creations. A couple of friends of ours sent her some birthday cards - I'll share those too! I'm sure your going to want to case them!!
Have a great Sunday!
Friday, May 15, 2009
Wishing you well
Isn't he just beautiful!! I could watch them for hours. And they have the cutest little chirp.
This is our weeping willow that we have out back. Of course this day every time I grabbed the camera to take a picture he would fly away. I finally snapped him though, and this was zoomed in. He's pretty high up in the tree. I think he was just playing hard to get and didn't wanna be pictured.
This is just a little sneek peek at what I've been up to. I'll be back to show you more later.

It's Thursday!!

Today's Happy Hump Day!
It's kinda funny, I'll give you a little history here. Just a little.
All the times that we've crafted together Joyce and I always ended up sitting next to each other. Now, I'm not sure that it was planned, but we were always next to each other. We would be sitting there making our cards, doing our own thing. Joyce would finish and I'd peek over at here and smile and say good job or whatever. Then came the "you know what you could of done...." It never seemed to fail. Then Joyce would say "why didn't you tell me then". And then I'd tell her because I was not paying attention. So now it's the standing joke, "you know you could of...." I guess you had to be there *Ü*
I made another flower book for the challenge over at PCP. Wanna see it??
Once again I used the my Cricut and the Accent Essentials and Walk in My Garden cartridges.
I covered all the pages with TAC's Winterberry paper collection and other plain card stock.
I used various embellishments like ribbon, brads, flowers. Like the cork flower? My friend Anne made that with her Big Shot and cork. Love it!!
The stamps are also from The Angel Company. I used A Blessing to Me, Small Sentiments and Floral Labels.I think it's kinda cute! What do you think??
Well, I'm off. I just heard the door bell ring and I think that the postman has a package for me. Nothing fun, just tape.
I hope that you have a great day. I will try to get on the computer early tomorrow to post. Tomorrow's going to be a busy day.
Have a great day!

Happy Tuesday!
This will be a short post for today, maybe.... I've got to finish a project on my desk and I'm anxious to get back to it.
The sneek peek from yesterday, remember? Well this is what I made. I love the Wednesday challenges on SCS. That community is one great place to be a part of!
Well the challenge last week was to make this backpack. At first because it shows so many steps I was a little worried. But it actually is so simple. If you can make a milk carton you can make this. They are kind of along the same lines. Anyway, here is the tutorial if you'd like to try one yourself. I used Close to Cocoa and Creamy Caramel cs for the backpack. I stamped the flowers all over the cs before scoring and putting it together. I don't remember the name of the stamp, but it was a large roller from SU! I stamped it with Chocolate Chip ink. A few eyelets, some ribbon, some rub on's and I was done. I gave it to Danielle and she looked at me like Mom's done it again. I have so many little boxes, bags and creations around here I have no idea what to do with them all!
The next thing I want to show you is what I made for the May Challenge over at PCP. This month I put up the challenge on the BIA group I belong to. If anyone is interested, go to PCP and join up with the Bind It All group and you can play. I love my BIA!! I'm always looking at things different to see if I can do something with my machine.
Anyway, the challenge is to make a book in the shape of a flower. Well, mine is a flower and a pot, but same thing....
I used some of that thin chipboard that hubby brought home and cut it out with my Cricut. Then I covered it with some DP and Mod Podge, and let it sit for a while. The flower is cut from the Accent Essentials cart (thanks Anne for letting me borrow it!!) and the flower pot and the buggies are all cut from Walk in my Garden. I stamped the inside pages with my TAC set A Wittle Bug. So, what do you think? You up for the challenge? The winner is getting 2 packages of O Wires from me. Stop on over here and sign up....
Well, so much for a short post... I will be back tomorrow to show you some more!
Have a great day!
Hugs, Joani

Personalized Kid's Backpacks
My kids are back in school. Classes started only this week. That's the reason why I have not been able to visit my friends here for these past few days. My youngest son who is in grade II is so excited to go to the school because of all the new things again for his school stuffs like his personalized kid's backpacks. I like his new backpack because there is enough space for his books, notebooks and even with a lunch tote already. Unlike his old backpack, there was no place for his lunch box. And I also put his name to make sure his brother will not borrow his backpack. The design has a colorful border design and with a Mint's signature fabrics.
Since I am talking about bags here, there's my laundry bag in the house. I like it because it has a shoulder strap and it makes it so very easy to bring this to my laundry area even if it is full, and the fabric is also made of Mint's signature fabrics. It has also cool border designs that make your laundry bag attractive. Next week, I will be a godmother again so I want to get a baby's memory book as a gift to my soon to be godchild. All these stuffs from personalized backpacks, laundry bags, and baby's memory books can be found in one site only. So, why not try it now, and visit posylane.com and see what you can get from there.

PS3 Black Ops 2 on CFW question help?
i was wondering if the following was possible to do
1. install say black ops 2 psn version on cfw ps3 with current patches and cfw4.3+ fix / edat
2. the connect cfw ps3 to a ofw ps3 via multiman ant then transfer the installed game files over to ofw ps3 and then be able to play on ofw ps3?
this might been asked or disproved but i couldn't find any info on this
07-09-2013 #2Azrial Guest
I doubt it, as Multiman wouldn't be able to communicate with the OFW, if it was possible, people would have been doing this months ago, and never getting banned.
07-10-2013 #3dyceast Guest
You don't need Multiman to Data transfer. But i doubt it will work for Black ops 2... Or most popular games.
It does work on some games though. There is a list of working games, but this was quite a while ago now, an was games like Fat Princess etc etc

College Football: Is It Wrong to Stockpile QBs?October 18, 2012
Every college football coach has his "thing." For some, it is a stable of running backs. For others, it is a plethora of bodies in the secondary or a healthy stock of offensive linemen.
However, nowhere is stockpiling more controversial than at quarterback, and rightfully so. Personally, I'm not a fan of grabbing as many talented quarterbacks as possible. But for some coaches, it is not only a way of life, but a must to succeed.
You see, unlike running backs, secondary players or even linemen, you can only play one quarterback at a time. Running backs can spell each other and work in tandem. Secondary guys have a multitude of ways to get on the field. Linemen often platoon and rotate to keep bodies fresh.
Oh, and all those guys can help on special teams.
Then you have quarterbacks. They might hold for field goals. Maybe. But they most certainly won't do enough to be major factors on special teams.
On the field, you can only play one quarterback at a time. Spare me the two-quarterback set that Louisiana-Monroe ran; that's taking a guy off the field who can actually block, run routes, catch and be a threat.
Which brings us to the dilemma at quarterback. In theory, you'd like to have one who can start for two to three years. Behind him would be his successor, and behind him a redshirt freshman who will be ready to start in Year 3 as a redshirt sophomore.
However, in practice, that's not how it works. Quarterbacks don't pan out. Injuries derail careers. Players get to a school and find they don't like it. Poor grades stop kids from being eligible. In other words, there are a lot of moving pieces to the quarterback conundrum.
On one hand, you have four or five players on scholarships who can't help your run defense or your pass defense or your offensive line problems or contribute on special teams. They can't even participate as a scout-team player in any of those areas.
At best, they play quarterback on the scout team, run 9-on-7 drills or throw one-on-ones. They likely also stand around at practice while your ones and twos get reps, signalling in plays or talking to the offensive coordinator.
It is a delicate balance that must be struck because quarterbacks are quite fragile; both in the recruiting process and in their development as players. Rarely are quarterbacks one of the "last guys in" as far recruiting classes are concerned.
They have to be romanced. They have to be stroked. They have to be coddled by the offensive coordinator and the head coach. They have to be sold hard on how a school loves them and needs their skills and will help develop them.
So when a quarterback commits, that's one less spot out of 25 that's available. Over two or three seasons that can be three, four or five guys that you have had to pass on in favor of getting quarterbacks. All were guys who could have helped your team.
But, in the grand scheme of things, that's college football. Having the best options at quarterback that you can and seeing how they pan out is a necessary evil. Look at Southern Cal. Going into 2013, if all things hold, they will have four-star quarterbacks Cody Kessler and Max Wittek, plus incoming five-star Max Browne. Don't you think Lane Kiffin would love to trade one of those guys for added depth on the defensive or offensive lines?
To answer the original question, there really is no right answer. Certainly, stockpiling quarterbacks is bad when you have a glut of them and not enough bodies at another position. At the same time, when you're stocked elsewhere else and still haven't found your guy to take snaps, finding more options is a must.
Developing quarterback talent is something some coaches do better than others, and keep in mind that "developing" is a relative term.
Some coaches are searching for perfection. That search leads to these coaches always looking to replace the guy they have for one who "could be better." Other coaches are far more concerned with being "not terrible" at the position. That leads to focusing on other areas of their roster as they have "their guy" and the player they hope to groom sitting behind him.
It's an inexact science, but there is a method to the madness. Many coaches are willing to sacrifice that extra body elsewhere on their roster in the pursuit of perfection at quarterback. Like it or not, stockpiling is what they do.

I often get asked about the different types of elevators, what makes them different, when they are needed/required, and how they affect the building design as a whole. According to International Building Code (IBC), the following elevator types are common:
- Passenger Elevator
- Accessible Means of Egress Elevator
- Fire Service Access Elevator
- Occupant Evacuation Elevator
About Each Elevator Type:
Passenger Elevator
An elevator with no special features. It goes into recall when smoke is detected in the lobby or the elevator shaft. It can be used as part of an accessible means of egress when required and the building has sprinklers as well as a horizontal exit. Passenger elevators can be used at all heights.
Accessible Means of Egress Elevator
An Accessible Means of Egress Elevator is required in buildings with 4+ floors (above OR below grade) that don't have sprinklers and a horizontal exit. This elevator is a passenger elevator that remains operational during fire control by fire services. It must be accessed from an Area of Refuge (AOR). The AOR requires two way communication, posted instructions, an entrance sized to fit wheelchairs, signage, and a smoke-proof room (with smoke barrier walls, floor + ceiling, and smoke-rated doors).
Fire Service Access Elevator
Two Fire Service Access Elevators are required in buildings over 120 feet tall. They require a lobby that is no less than 150 sq. ft., at least 8 ft. in width with direct access to exit stairs, a stand pipe, signage, a waterproof hoistway, an illuminated shaft, NO shunt trip, 1 hour fire+smoke-rated lobby walls, hose stream-rated, 3/4 hour fire-rated & smoke-proof lobby door, and signage.
Occupant Evacuation Elevator
Occupant Evacuation Elevators are optional in lieu of a 3rd set of exit stairs required on buildings 420 ft. high or higher. They require a lobby sized to accommodate 25% of occupant load with direct access to exit stairs, 2 way communication, elevator under fire command control, 1 hour fire+smoke-rated lobby walls, 3/4 hour auto-closing fire-rated door, hose stream, UL 1784 smoke rated with a vision panel, and signage. If chosen, these features are required for ALL elevators, two of which must also be fire service elevators.
When can a smoke curtain be used instead of a lobby?
A Smoke Guard smoke curtain can be used instead of a lobby on Passenger Elevators.
Accessible Means of Egress Elevators and Occupant Evacuation Elevators are optional for building designers and can't use a smoke curtain. Fire Service Access Elevators are only required on buildings above 120 ft. and only two of the elevators need to be Fire Service Access Elevators. All other elevators may be Passenger Elevators and therefore may use a Smoke Guard smoke curtain.
See the Infographic
We created the infographic below to help illustrate the different types of elevators and when they are needed. Feel free to share!

Whitney Houston made her movie debut in The Bodyguard with Kevin Costner, and her remake of Dolly Parton's hit "I Will Always Love You" ensured the flick was a hit. The video was filmed early in her pregnancy with daughter Bobbi Kristina Brown, after Houston suffered a miscarriage while filming the movie.
After releasing two soulful ballads on her debut album, Whitney Houston successfully crossed over into pop in this totally 80's video for her hit "How Will I Know." Marking her second number one single on the Billboard Hot 100, this video went into heavy rotation on MTV almost immediately, making Houston and Michael Jackson the first featured black artists on the new network.
Winning Houston the 1986 Grammy for Best Female Pop Performance and the American Music Award for Favorite R&B/Soul Video, "Saving All My Love for You" highlighted the singer's powerful pipes. However, the song's subject -- a woman having an affair with a married father -- was a controversial one and is highlighted in the video.
Hailed by critics as the centerpiece of her debut album, "Greatest Love of All" impressed the importance of maintaining your strength during great challenges whether you succeed or fail and is still considered one of Houston's crowning achievements.
Marking Houston's sixth number one single in a row -- putting her in a three-way tie with The Beatles and The Bee Gees -- "So Emotional," the third single from her second album Whitney, remained in the Top 40 for 14 weeks.
Talk about an anthem. "I'm Every Woman" was even a favorite of Oprah Winfrey, who used the song as the theme of her show during the 1993-94 season. A remake of the original hit by Chaka Khan (in which a young Houston sang backup), the video featured a heavily pregnant Houston shortly before the birth of her daughter Bobbi Kristina.
In 1991 the United States was in the midst of the Gulf War -- our first formally declared war since Vietnam. Houston's powerful and inspiring performance of the national anthem at the Super Bowl brought fans to their feet, and still brings Americans to tears over 20 years later.

Audi has released the TV commercial for the new Audi R8 Spyder featuring Iron Man. Have a look!
Audi has once again teamed up with Marvel for Iron Man 2. A new ad from the company shows off the R8 Spyder as one of Stark's main rides, which makes sense considering the car was spotted on the set not too long ago. As if we needed another reason to be jealous.

The accolades keep pouring in for the Travis Tigers and standout seniors Aaron and Andrew Harrison, which open their season next Tuesday at home against Cypress Lakes (7 p.m.).
MaxPreps released its 2012-13 Preseason Xcellent 25 High School Basketball Rankings, and Travis starts the season second in the country. The Tigers only trail Simeon (Ill.), which features another top recruit in Jabari Parker and is 62-3 the last two seasons.
Defending TAPPS 5A champion Plano Prestonwood is third, while DeSoto is 19th.
The Harrisons, who recently committed to Kentucky, were both picked to the USA Today High School Sports Preseason American Family Insurance ALL-USA team.
Aaron averaged 18.8 points and 4.6 rebounds last season for Travis, which reached the 5A title game, while Andrew averaged 12.1 points and 6.0 assists.
Parker was also named to the team, as was Prestonwood standout Julius Randle.

They give us access to mysteries and knowledge.
Coaching is a natural key to insight.
What is behind your locked "door?"
The metaphor is valuable to remember. Our work together identifies the "keys" that you must craft to reach the best version of yourself. Everyone needs different keys dependent upon what the personal goals are.
Keys also serve to define as a legend on a map or code to unravel mysteries.
Access brings knowledge and freedom.
Once we learn something, we cannot unknow it! We must apply it to move forward. If we do not move, we are just stuffed with information. Knowledge applied becomes wisdom because an experience is attached to it.

Imagine a white luminous curtain waving in the breeze. Or wallpaper that lights up your room with perfect white light. The applications are not very far away. White LEDs, made from zinc oxide and a conducting polymer, can be manufactured directly on paper, as shown by Gul Amin in his doctoral thesis at Linkoping University, Sweden.
In his thesis, Gul Amin, who recently received his doctorate at the Physical Electronics and Nanotechnology group, Campus Norrköping, shows how it is possible to grow white LEDs directly on paper and also to print them on wallpaper for example - this method has a patent pending. The active components are nanorods of zinc oxide on a thin layer of polydiethylflourene (PFO), a conducting polymer. But the paper has first been coated with a thin, water-repellent, protective and levelling layer of cyclotene, a resin. "This is the first time anyone has been able to build electronic and photonic inorganic semiconducting components directly on paper using chemical methods," says professor Magnus Willander, who is leading the research. The article has been published in Wiley's Phys. Status Solidi - Rapid Research Letters. In one of the thesis' other articles, published in Springer's Journal of Material Science, Gul Amin also shows how it is possible to grow nanorods on paper, blow them off the surface using ultrasound and collect them in the form of a powder. This powder can then be used to print the nanorods of zinc oxide, and thus LEDs, on paper or plastic in a normal printing press. That method also has patents pending.

PASOS seminar in Cairo marks first foray into Egypt
News Source: PASOS Secretariat, Czech Republic
"Women's Rights in Egypt: What now?," a seminar on policy analysis and research, and policy advocacy, marked the first PASOS project to take place in Egypt. Held in Cairo on 28 September 2011, the seminar introduced the PASOS network to representatives of Egyptian NGOs. Two experts from the Center for Research and Policy Making in Macedonia also made presentations.
The seminar was part of the PASOS project "Linking change-makers in the Middle East & North Africa with democratic reformers of post-communist (Central and Eastern) Europe" and was held in cooperation with NAZRA for Feminist Studies, an Eygptian civil society group.
"The project will link civic groups with experience of the policy process of democratic transformation in Central and Eastern Europe with Egyptian civil society engaged in securing democratic structures," said Jeff Lovitt, executive director of PASOS. "It aims to facilitate the establishment of joint projects between PASOS members and Egyptian civil society."
Lovitt introduced the gathering of about 25 participants to the PASOS network, and spoke about the various opportunities for cooperation on gender policy and other issues of importance during transition from authoritarian rule to a freer, democratic Egypt.
The seminar also included a presentation by Marija Risteska, Executive Director of CRPM, and fellow CRPM policy analyst Ana Mickovska-Raleva. They spoke on policy analysis, research, and advocacy.

Yes We looked at lightness (L) as part of our work. We found that, depending on the values you choose, you end up with comparable results to the algorithm proposed. The one we proposed however seemed to perform better at lower black end. I will forward comparisons - though it is a bit involved since they didn't specify what the threshold values should be. The key to either approach would be to define the threshold values. The link you pointed to provides an equation but no values for the threshold. Further, the tests to date have only been carried out on subjects without vision impairments. They are hypothesizing research with people who have vision deficits but there has been none to date. If we were to use this in our guidelines (which is a possibility) we would need to have values for the threshold within the next 3 months. What values would they propose for level 2 and 3? What would it be based on? Could they come up with them within the next month? Gregg -- ------------------------------ Gregg C Vanderheiden Ph.D. Professor - Ind. Engr. & BioMed Engr.

from Wiktionary, Creative Commons Attribution/Share-Alike License
- n. A person who creates a trust.
from WordNet 3.0 Copyright 2006 by Princeton University. All rights reserved.
- n. (law) a person who creates a trust by giving real or personal property in trust to a trustee for the benefit of a beneficiary; a person who gives such property is said to settle it on the trustee
Sorry, no etymologies found.
The way the trust works is that you are the beneficial owner (trustor of sorts) of the real estate with every and all rights of ownership including but not limited to the ability to re-sell it, rent it, build on it, exclude or allow access to anyone you want, and use it within the normal allowed usage of any real estate.
Trusteeship differs from custodianship: in the former, it is to the trustor that one owes the object's welfare; in custodianship, it is to the object of the custodial right that one is obligated in seeking that object's welfare.
