Public forums to reduce smoking rates rescheduled
Public forums to reduce smoking rates rescheduled
(Oct. 6, 2005) A series of state-wide public forums, originally scheduled for September, has been rescheduled to continue raising awareness of the dangers of smoking.
Initially, the Tobacco Prevention and Cessation Program – part of the state Department for Public Health (DPH) in the Cabinet for Health and Family Services (CHFS) – and the Get Healthy Kentucky! board had planned nine forums to take place at various locations. Seven of the forums were canceled due to the limitations placed on state government travel as a result of a recent spike in gas prices.
The forums now are set to take place in late October and continue through November. An additional forum, which will be held in Ashland, has been added to the schedule. Those who had signed up previously do not need to reregister and will be notified via postcard of the new date.
The intent of the forums, which are similar to last year's successful obesity forums, is to raise awareness of the enormous economic and human toll of tobacco use in Kentucky and to gather information from residents on tackling the issue.
"The health consequences of tobacco use are incredible," said James Holsinger Jr., M.D., CHFS secretary and Get Healthy Kentucky! board chairman. "Add to the massive human cost, the staggering smoking attributable economic costs – especially in terms of health care and lost productivity – and it's clear that smoking is literally and figuratively killing us as a state."
According to DPH's 2005 report "Tobacco Use in Kentucky," more than 8,000 Kentuckians die annually from tobacco-related illnesses. Among high school students and adults, nearly one in three smokes cigarettes. Kentucky ranks first in the nation in cigarette use. At current smoking rates, 87,902 Kentucky children 18 or younger will die prematurely from smoking.
In 2001, among men ages 35-64, 91 percent of all trachea, lung and bronchus cancer deaths in Kentucky were the result of smoking. The total smoking-attributable medical expenditures in Kentucky are approximately $1.2 billion annually - that equals an economic burden of $300 for each of the four million residents of the state.
"Tobacco has been a big part of Kentucky's culture throughout its history, and the result has been an increase in tobacco use and a corresponding increase in all the adverse health and economic consequences," Holsinger said. "We recognize that individuals are responsible for their behavior. Still, as a state, we must also make some larger societal changes to help support healthy environments and implement sound policies that encourage people to make healthy choices."
The tobacco report and regional forums are funded by a grant from the national Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. Letters of invitation to attend the forums were sent to members of the Kentucky Medical Association, mayors, county judge-executives, school principals, legislators and other community leaders.

The code examples shown in this chapter are taken from a ToolTalk demo program called CoEd. See Appendix B, The CoEd Demonstration Program for a listing of the source code showing how ToolTalk-related code is included in the header and .c files for this program.
Before your application can utilize the interoperability functionality provided by the ToolTalk service and the Messaging Toolkit, it needs to know where the ToolTalk libraries and toolkit reside.
To use the ToolTalk service, an application calls ToolTalk functions from the ToolTalk API. The Messaging Toolkit provides functions such as functions to register with the ToolTalk service, to create message patterns, to send messages, to receive messages, and to examine message information. To modify your application to use the ToolTalk service and toolkit, you must include the appropriate header files in your application's .h file.
#include <Tt/tt_c.h> // ToolTalk Header File #include <Tt/tttk.h> // Messaging Toolkit Header file
Your application also needs to know about the new ToolTalk commands that are in its .c file. Place this information in your application's .h file, too.
Example 2-1 shows how the header file information is included in the CoEditor.h file.
#ifndef CoEditor_h #define CoEditor_h #include <X11/Intrinsic.h> #include <Tt/tt_c.h> // ToolTalk Header #include <Tt/tttk.h> // Messaging Toolkit Header
You need to change the makefile of your application so that it uses the ToolTalk libraries. To do this, add the -ltt option as follows:
LOCAL_LIBRARIES = -ltt $(XAWLIB) $(XMULIB) $(XTOOLLIB) $(XLIB)
Before you can incorporate the Messaging Toolkit functionality into your application, you need to determine the way that your tool will work with other tools. There are several basic questions you need to ask:
How will these tools work together?
What kinds of operations can these tools perform?
What kinds of operations can these tools ask other tools to perform?
What events will these tools generate which may interest other tools? (What types of messages will these tools want to send?)
What events generated by other tools will be of interest to these tools? (What types of messages will these tools want to receive?)
To best answer these questions, you need to understand the difference between events and operations, and how the ToolTalk service handles messages regarding each of these.
An event is an announcement that something has happened. An event is simply a news bulletin. The sending process has no formal expectations as to whether any other process will hear about the event, or whether an action is taken as a consequence of the event. When a process uses the ToolTalk service to inform interested processes that an event has occurred, it sends a notice. Since the sending process does not expect a reply, an event cannot fail.
An operation is an inquiry or an action. The requesting process makes an inquiry or requests that an operation be performed. The requesting process expects a result to be returned and needs to be informed of the status of the inquiry or action. When a process uses the ToolTalk service to ask another tool to perform an operation, it sends a request. The ToolTalk service delivers the request to interested processes and informs the sending process of the status of the request.
When your application sends a ToolTalk notice, it will not receive a reply or be informed about whether or not any tool pays attention to the notice. It is important to make the notice an impartial report of the event as it happens.
For example, if your tool sends the Desktop Services message Modified, it may expect any listening tools to react in a given way. However, your tool should not care, and does not need to be informed, about whether any or no other tool reacts to the message; it only wants to report the event:
When your application sends a ToolTalk request, it expects one tool to perform the indicated operation, or to answer the inquiry, and return a reply message. For example, if your tool sends the Desktop Services message Get_Modified, it should expect notification that the message was delivered and the action performed. The ToolTalk service guarantees that either a reply will be returned by the receiving process or the sender will be informed of the request's failure.
You can identify requests in three ways:
By identifying the operations requested by your tool that can fail
By identifying the operations your tool can perform for other tools
By identifying the operations your tool will want other tools to perform
A good method to use to identify these operations is to develop a scenario that outlines the order of events and operations that you expect your tool to perform and have performed.
A scenario outlines the order of the events and operations that a tool will expect to perform and have performed. For example, the following scenario outlines the events that the ToolTalk demo program CoEd expects to perform and have performed:
User double-clicks on a document icon in the File Manager.
The file opens in the editor, which is started by the system if one is not already running.
If another tool has modifications to the text pending for the document, User is asked whether the other tool should save the text changes or revert to the last saved version of the document.
User inserts text.
User saves the document.
If another tool has modifications pending for the document, User is asked whether to modify the document.
User exits the editor.
If text has unsaved changes, User is asked whether to save or discard the changes before quitting the file.
Once the scenario is done, you can answer your basic questions.
The File Manager will request that CoEd open a document for editing.
Each instance of CoEd will notify other interested instances of changes it makes to the state of the document.
Each instance of CoEd can answer questions about itself and its state, such as "What is your status?"
Each instance of CoEd has the capability of performing operations such as:
Iconifying and de-iconifying
Raising to front and lowering to back
Editing a document
Displaying a document
The File Manager must request that CoEd open a document for editing.
An instance of CoEd can ask another instance of CoEd to save changes to the open document.
An instance of CoEd can ask another instance of CoEd to revert to the last saved version of the open document.
The document has been opened.
The document has been modified.
The document has been reverted to last saved version.
The document has been saved.
An instance of CoEd has been exited.
The document has been opened.
The document has been modified.
The document has been reverted to last saved version.
The document has been saved.
An instance of CoEd has been exited.
The ToolTalk service provides you with a complete set of functions for application integration. Using the functionality provided with the ToolTalk Messaging Toolkit, your applications can be made to "speak" to other applications that are ToolTalk-compliant. This section describes how to add the kinds of ToolTalk functions you need to include in your application so that it can communicate with other ToolTalk-aware applications that follow the same protocols.
The ToolTalk types mechanism is designed to help the ToolTalk service route messages. When your tool declares a ptype, the message patterns listed in it are automatically registered; the ToolTalk service then matches messages it receives to these registered patterns. These static message patterns remain in effect until the tool closes communication with the ToolTalk service.
The ToolTalk Types Database already has installed ptypes for tools bundled with this release. You can extract a list of the installed ptypes from the ToolTalk Types Database, as follows:
% tt_type_comp -d user|system|network -P
The names of the ptypes will be printed out in source format.
For all other tools (that is, tools that are not included in this release), you need to first create a ptype file to define the ptype for your application, and then compile the ptype with the ToolTalk type compiler, tt_type_comp. To define a ptype, you need to include the following information in a file:
An optional start string - The ToolTalk service will execute this command, if necessary, to start a process running the program.
Signatures - Describes the TT_PROCEDURE-addressed messages that the program wants to receive. Messages to be observed are described separately from messages to be handled.
To create a ptype file, you can use any text editor (such as vi, emacs, or dtpad). Example 2-2 shows a snippet from the ptype file for the CoEd application.
ptype DT_CoEd { /* Process type identifier */ start "CoEd"; /* Start string */ handle: /* Receiving process */ /* * Display ISO_Latin_1 */ session Display( in ISO_Latin_1 contents) => start opnum = 1; /* Signature */ /* NOTE: A signature is divided * into two parts by the => as follows: * Part 1 specifies how the message is to be matched; * Part 2 specifies what is to be taken when * a match occurs. */ }
After you have created the ptype file, you need to install the ptype. To do this, run the ToolTalk type compiler. On the command line, type the following:
% tt_type_compCoEd.ptype
where CoEd.ptype is the name of the CoED ptype file.
The ToolTalk service provides a simple function to test if a given ptype is already registered in the current session.
// Test for existing ptype registered in current session tt_ptype_exists(const char *ptid)
where ptid is the identifier of the session to test for registration.
The ToolTalk service provides a function to merge a compiled ToolTalk type file into the currently running ttsession:
// Merge new compiled ptypes into currently running ttsession tt_session_types_load(current_session, compiled_types_file)
where current_session is the current default ToolTalk session and compiled_types_file is the name of the compiled ToolTalk types file. This function adds new types and replaces existing types of the same name; other existing types remain unchanged.
There are a number of tasks every ToolTalk-aware application needs to perform, including:
Initializing the toolkit
Joining a ToolTalk session and registering patterns
Adding the ToolTalk service to its event loop
This section provides examples of the ToolTalk code you need to include in your application so that it can perform these tasks.
The code snippets used in this section are taken from the CoEd.C file. This file contains the general commands any application needs to perform that are not specific to any particular application. See Appendix B, The CoEd Demonstration Program for the detailed source code.
Your application needs to initialize and register with the initial ToolTalk session. To do so, it first needs to obtain a process identifier (procid). The following code snippet shows how to obtain a procid and how to initialize the toolkit.
// Obtain process identifier int myTtFd; // Initialize toolkit and create a ToolTalk communication endpoint char *myProcID = ttdt_open( &myTtFd, ToolName, "SunSoft", "%I", 1 );
Your application must call ttdt_open before any other calls are made; otherwise, errors may occur.
Before your application can receive messages, it must join a ToolTalk session and register the message patterns that are to be matched.
// Join a ToolTalk session and register patterns and default callbacks sessPats = ttdt_session_join( 0, 0, session_shell, this, 1 ); }
Your application also needs to add the ToolTalk service to its event loop.
// Process ToolTalk events for Xt Clients XtAppAddInput( myContext, myTtFd, (XtPointer)XtInputReadMask, tk_Xt_input_handler, myProcID );
In addition to the duties described in the section "Tasks Every ToolTalk-aware Application Needs to Perform", ToolTalk-aware editor applications also need to perform other tasks, including:
Declaring a ptype
Processing the start string message
Passing a media callback
Failing a message
Replying when a request has been completed
This section provides examples of the ToolTalk code you need to include in your editor application so that it can perform these additional tasks.
The code snippets used in this section are taken from the CoEditor.C file. This file contains specific commands for editor applications. See Appendix B, The CoEd Demonstration Program for the detailed source code.
There is one step you need to perform before you code your editor application to include any ToolTalk functions: you need to write a media load pattern callback routine. For example,
Tt_message CoEditor::loadISOLatin1_( Tt_message msg, void *pWidget, Ttttk_op op, Tt_status diagnosis, unsigned char *contents, int len, char *file, char *docname )
This callback is passed to the media load function at runtime.
Since type information is specified only once (when your application is installed), your application needs to only declare its ptype each time it starts.
The media load pattern callback routine you wrote previously is passed in at runtime. The callbacks are registered when your application joins the session. When your tool agrees to handle a request, a callback message is sent. A callback message is also sent if a file is joined or if a message is failed.
// Join the session and register patterns and callbacks sessPats = ttdt_session_join( 0, 0, session_shell, this, 1 ); // Accept responsibility to handle a request _contractPats = ttdt_message_accept(msg, CoEditor::_contractCB_, shell, this, 1, 1 ); // Optional task: Join a file (Can be called recursively) if (_filePats == 0) {_filePats = ttdt_file_join( _file, TT_SCOPE_NONE, 1, CoEditor::_fileCB_, this ); } // Fail a message tttk_message_fail( msg, TT_DESKTOP_ENODATA, 0, 1 );
After your application has completed the operation request, it must reply to the sending application. The following message returns the edited contents of text to the sender.
// Reply to media load pattern callback // with edited contents of text ttmedia_load_reply( _contract, (unsigned char *)contents, len, 1 );
In addition to the tasks described in the section "Tasks ToolTalk-aware Editor Applications Need to Perform" editor applications can also perform other optional tasks such as tasks that use desktop file interfaces to coordinate with other editors. This section provides examples of some of the ToolTalk code you need to include in your editor application so that it can perform these optional tasks.
The code snippets used in this section are taken from the CoEditor.C file. This file contains specific commands for editor applications. See Appendix B, The CoEd Demonstration Program for the detailed source code.
The following code snippet asks a file whether it has any changes pending:
// Does the file have any changes pending? _modifiedByOther = ttdt_Get_Modified( _contract, _file, TT_BOTH, 10 * timeOutFactor );
The following code snippet reverts a file to its last version:
// Revert file to last version status = ttdt_Revert(_contract, _file, TT_BOTH, 10 * timeOutFactor );
The following code snippet saves pending changes to a file:
// Save pending changes status = ttdt_Save( _contract, _file, TT_BOTH, 10 * timeOutFactor );
The following code snippet announces to interested tools that your application has changes pending for the file:
// File has been modified ttdt_file_event( _contract, TTDT_MODIFIED, _filePats, 1 );
The following code snippet announces to interested tools that your application has reverted the file to its last saved version:
// File has been reverted to last version ttdt_file_event( _contract, TTDT_REVERTED, _filePats, 1 );
The following code snippet announces to interested tools that your application has saved its pending changes for the file.
// File has been saved ttdt_file_event( _contract, TTDT_SAVED, _filePats, 1 );
The following code snippet unregisters interest in ToolTalk events about a file and destroys the patterns.
// Unregister interest in ToolTalk events and destroy patterns status = ttdt_file_quit( _filePats, 1 ); _filePats = 0;

On Thorns I Lay – Enigma lyrics
I think I have lost my way like ruin my soul
Throwing away into a city not mine non yours
Do you remember?
... And I was running every spring around the earth
To find a hope to bring you the first rose
I saw you there first time do you remember?
You are missing a winter and seems for five do you remember?

Four schools are warning students to be careful after a 14-year-old was hit by a car on Tuesday afternoon.
The Cavendish School student escaped with a cut to his head and bruises after the collision at the roundabout between Leighton Buzzard Road, Queensway and Warners End Road.
Deputy headteacher Martin Serrao said: "It is a dangerous spot particularly now it is icy and dark. We would like to say to drivers to be aware of children.
"At that junction there is almost no safe place to cross.
"Of the four routes there is only one that is covered by a pelican crossing so they could do with another pelican at the bottom of Warners End Road."
He praised three Cavendish pupils who came to the aid of the boy, phoning 999 and teachers from the nearby school.
The boy was taken to hospital, but was back in school yesterday.
The roundabout where he was hit is also used by parents going to Gade Valley School, St Cuthbert Mayne Catholic Junior School and The Collett School.
Gade Valley office manager Brenda Simson said: "Unfortunately there are four schools in a very small vicinity here. First thing in the morning and after school it's just a nightmare."
The schools are near the top of the steep hill on Warners End Road, which has a bend in it.
Collett School headteacher Stephen Hoult-Allen said many parents park on its pavements, making it harder for drivers to see children between the cars.
Cavendish School is exploring plans to let parents drop off and collect children in its grounds to ease congestion nearby.

Hi, Santa!
Hi, Wendi! I haven't seen you here on my lap for what? 40 years? My, but you've really….grown.
Is that a fat joke?
What? No, it wasn't a—-
Because you of all people should NOT be making fat jokes, man. What do you do all day, anyway? Drink gravy and mainline reindeer bacon? I know it's not f*cking Pilates.
Wow, that's not very—stop poking my stomach.
Stop poking my emotions.
(One minute of minor scuffling, followed by two minutes of loaded silence)
I see our relationship hasn't changed, Wendi.
Yeah, well, maybe if you'd ever once brought me something I wanted, things would be different.
Yeah, well, maybe if you hadn't shoplifted blue eyeshadow from KMART in 1977, you wouldn't have been on my Naughty List.
(One minute of minor scuffling, followed by two minutes of loaded silence)
(loud sigh) I don't know why I'm even bothering to ask, but have you been a good mom this year? I suggest you answer me before I call security.
And by "security" do you mean that gross elf over there clipping his toenails with his teeth?
Yes, Santa, I've been a good mom this year. My boys are healthy and happy, and I don't let them drink Dr Pepper out of a baby bottle.
I see your parenting standards are still sky high.
(One minute of minor scuffling, followed by two minutes of loaded silence)
And you wonder why I never gave you that stupid Barbie Dream House, you wanker? Jeezus.
Watch the tone, Claus. I've given birth to two kids, so one sneeze and these fancy velvet pants of yours are headed straight to the North Pole dry cleaners.
You wouldn't.
Oh, wouldn't I?
(sounds of a slap fight, then Elf keening)
Oh my god, just tell me what you want for Christmas so I can get a drink. I'm guessing what you need is either a head-to-toe makeover or eye bag surgery.
You're a bastard, Claus.
So are you, Wendi.
(light chuckling, then a louder slap fight and more Elf keening)
Nice seeing you, Santa. I'll expect a $500 Visa gift card in my stocking.
Nice seeing you, dummy. And the best you're going to get is a frozen Weight Watchers entree in your stocking. Now get off my lap. Chirpy needs Urgent Care.
CONGRATULATIONS TO RANDOMLY DRAWN NOONDAY GIFT CARD WINNER LIZ! The song Liz hates most in the world is Meatloaf's "Paradise By the Dashboard Light." I don't quite agree with her, because Meatloaf is incredibly sexy, but there you have it. Enjoy your Noonday, Liz!

(11/1/2002) Mabua Express, the high-speed luxury catamaran ferry operating between Bali's Benoa harbor and the port of Lembar in Lombok, has curtailed its daily ferry service to three times a week in the face of diminished passenger loads.
Citing the "bomb tragedy in Kuta" as the reason, Mabua Express' General Manager, Goestamar Aribrata, said that ferry service is now available only on Wednesday, Saturday and Sundays.
The schedule reduction will remain in place for the entire month of November while the ferry operator waits for visitor numbers to Indonesia to improve.

State trooper crash a 'nightmare'
Published 10:46 pm, Thursday, November 3, 2011
BRIDGEPORT -- A state trooper from Greenwich was hospitalized Wednesday night after what police say was an ugly crash on Interstate 95 north. Trooper Thomas Ehret, nearing the completion of his first year as at the state police barracks in Bridgeport, was driving northbound near exit 27 around 7:30 p.m. Wednesday when police say his cruiser was rear-ended by another vehicle before being struck by a passing tractor trailer.
Ehret was treated and released at St. Vincent's Medical Center in Bridgeport, state police said.
All but one northbound lane was closed for about two hours while state police, EMS and Bridgeport firefighters assisted Ehret and worked to clear the scene.
"It was a nightmare," state police spokesman Lt. J. Paul Vance said Thursday.
The vehicle police say struck the cruiser, driven by 28-year-old Nirmalkumar Sugumar, of Bridgeport, also sustained heavy front end damage, state police said. The tractor trailer, driven by 54-year-old Barrington Fyffe, of East Hartford, sustained minor damage.
to its right side and to the rear mudflat of the trailer.
No one was cited for an infraction at the scene, though state police said they are continuing to investigate.

Middlesbrough defender Jonathan Woodgate regrets not making more of his move to Real Madrid.
He signed for £13.4 million in the summer of 2004 from Newcastle United.
"I'd been given an opportunity to play for the biggest club in the world and injuries ruined it. I played 14 games in two seasons. I loved it out there, though, as a life experience it was fantastic," he told the Telegraph.
"If I have one regret it was not going back after I'd spent a season on loan at Middlesbrough. I played virtually an entire season for the first time in ages. Boro had a bid accepted, but I didn't have to leave.
"I was 27, I was coming into my prime as a centre-back. I left too early. I was fit for the next two years and I should have shown them what I could really do."

Special Christmas Promotion!
Okay so it turned out that the mobile versions got released just recently. As it falls quite close to the Steam Christmas sale (where we are selling SOTMC at an all time low at just $0.99) we decided that we are going to match the price on all platforms. So you can buy SOTMC on any platform (iOS/Android/Mac App Store/Steam) for just $0.99.
That's quite a good deal, right ? To make it even better (and to boost our mobile sales) we came up with an idea. Almost everyone has a smartphone these days so why don't you all buy the game for mobile (even thought you wanted to buy it for Steam for your Mac/PC/Linux machine) and we will give you a Steam key as a bonus. It's a win-win really. A double win for players and a win for us as we would like to boost our mobile sales.
We don't have millions to spend on marketing and promotion so instead we decided to turn to this unorthodox method and hope that this offer will reach as many of you as possible!
SOTMC is constantly updated and enhanced. We are planning new content and DLCs for 2014 along with companion apps and obviously the sequel is also in development although still in design phase. We will get to that also but we really need you help, too.
The offer will end on the 2nd of January, 2014 so please please share this information! Like on Facebook, Share on Facebook, Tweet about or do whatever you can on your social channels. It will be highly appreciated.
SOTMC out now on mobile!
This is something we've been working on all summer. The idea was that modern mobile devices are quite powerful and we were always playing with the idea of bringing SOTMC to handhelds and/or mobiles. It all seamed fairly easy as the project is in Unity3D engine and we already developed many mobile games so we thought we have all the knowledge and it will be a simple port with some performance optimisations.
It wasn't as simple…
Tearing SMC apart, optimising for mobile, putting it back together. Enhancing visuals, adding some new features, fixing some more. We did many rounds like this. Then we faced the issue of older iOS devices still supported (iPhone 4 mainly). Another round of fixes and polishing and so on. There are still some glitches players are reporting and we are working hard to get these fixed in the next update also.
Android is another fountain of problems. There are many devices, many resolutions and aspect ratios. SOTMC originally was built around 4:3 aspect and a fixed 1024×768 resolution. Yes, not very flexible but this game was designed in 2007 so who would've thought things will change so much and the game will still exist.
We released the game on the Amazon App Store first because Amazon has a review process similar to Apple and we thought this may help us as we don't have many Android devices to test the game on. We only had one really I think.
So that's it. The game is out now on a total of 5 platforms – PC / Mac / Linux / iOS / Android.
The mobile version though brought many optimisations, enhancements and fixes which we retro fitted to the stand alone version. Added more visual effects on top (as the game is now more optimised we could) added more quality levels so suit everyone from an old machine to a shiny new beast.
Development is going forward still. We have many ideas how to spice up the game with future DLCs and features. Also the community is helpful, providing us with ideas and bug reports so we are very happy with this.
While the next big step is surely a sequel which would fit SOTMC's original purpose and focus on casual gamers managing a horse breeding farm with fantasy horses – we may continue to make the original game the bast 'gag' and 'troll gift' game of all time. This is all up in the air but 2014 will bring many new updates, platforms and Unicorns for sure.

Another 12345 copies sold!
These are the magic numbers 12.345 copies of SOTMC were sold during the 2013 Steam Summer Sale! Thank you everyone for your support. We still need 31.635 copies to sell from the original game in order to be able to fund the sequel entirely as an indie development.
What happened since the last post ?
- in June we released a new version which is now available for Linux users.
- the new version also moves save games to Steam Cloud (and makes them cross-platform)
- we have added badges, emoticons, cards and backgrounds to SOTMC
These are all available in the current build on Steam
What's next ?
1. iOS port
We are working hard on the iOS version port of the original Secret of the Magic Crystals. While porting the game we are giving it a bit of a polish, too. At the moment we don't want to touch any fundamental features, nor we want to change gameplay. Some adjustments are made here and there suggested by You guys, but in essence it will remain the same well-known experience.
Expect the iOS release around end of August, beginning of September. We will highly rely on your support so please spread the word and download SOTMC iOS once available.
2. Sequel
Yes, even though the counter hasn't reached 0 yet and we are still in design/pre production we want to let everyone know that we are working on Secret of the Magic Crystals II. The new episode will tie-in with the original story, however, gameplay mechanics and art style will be reworked. The style will be much much better and the gameplay should be a lot more fun and intuitive.
Secret of the Magic Crystals II will most likely get a separate website where everyone can add his suggestions, comments and changes they would make to the original in order to make it a better game.
Call to arms!
We knew it won't be easy. Reaching the 50k mark with $1.99 price and obviously less attention than last time (when SOTMC got hyped as a troll gift) Is quite a challenge.
With your help (thanks everyone) we've come to around 3500k sales since the sale started (21st). I have complete faith that the sequel would be better by a magnitude (at least). To convince everyone that their investment isn't wasted we've come up with a Plan B. If we won't reach 50k copies until the end of the sale (6th Jan) then we'll produce a DLC for the original SOTMC with showing some of the potential of the sequel. This means that even if we don't hit the 50k mark you all will get something new in the original game so no money and effort is wasted. In fact we might include some of the rewards in the original game also.
Best would be though to develop the full game and show everyone that we can indeed make a good horse-breeding and farm managing game with a lot more action and interaction, multiplayer races and a lot more. We still need your help to achieve this so remember to share this blog with everyone you can and pursue your friends, family, colleagues to purchase a couple of copies.
Merry Christmas everyone!
On behalf of Artery Studios I would like to wish you all a Merry Christmas! Thanks everyone for purchasing copies of SOTMC in order to support the sequel. Don't forget to share some photos or screenshots with us which we can post here or on our Facebook page.
858 copies sold on the first day of the Holiday sale!
I'm pleased to announce that on the first day of the Holiday Steam sales we sold 858 copies of Secret of the Magic Crystals. This includes sells in our shop over here. While we're still a long way from the 50.000 mark with 17 more days to go it doesn't seem impossible to get there.
Now is the time to surprise your loved ones with a couple of copies. Head over to steam for individual copies or buy 6, 11, 21, 41 packs direct from us!
Let the Sale begin! Steam Christmas Sale is now on!
The Christmas sale is now on. There's a long way to go as we still need around ~48.000 copies to sell. I know it's a huge number but I urge everyone to buy at least one copy over Steam. If you would like to buy bulk to enjoy the specials we are offering (check in here) then you can now do that too! We are offering 6, 11, 21 and 41 pack of SOTMCs for you toshare with friends family or gift to anyone you'd like. Check it out in the Shop.
If you're not buying then please at least like this page but we'd be very happy if you would share this blog over twitter, Facebook, reddit, google+, tumblr, e-mail or any other way you can so we can have a bigger audience and reach out to anyone who loves (or hates) SOTMC. Yes, even haters might be happy to buy a couple of copies at a discounted rate. While they can troll their friends they'd also help us develop the sequel which could actually be a great game.
I'll keep updating the counter at the top with the daily sales. Come on, let's do this!
Thanks everyone for the support so far and for reading.
Autumn Steam sales in numbers
Autumn sales has ended and as you can see on the header the number of Secret of the Magic Crystals copies sold so far is 1.350. While not as much as we expected we will make sure that you can buy bulk soon and get ready for the next sale much more organized.
Made a FAQ page also because I received many comments and e-mails regarding the sale. Have a look and don't hesitate to ask if something's not there!
Thanks everyone for purchasing, sharing, linking, tweeting about the future of SOTMC.
Help us get SOTMC II into production!
There must be a reason you've found this blog. Either I was lucky enough to reach out to you or someone already spread the word. Before you move forward reading please make sure you read that About section to find out more on the cause and what's behind the whole idea.
Once it became clear that you would like to help one way or another to make SOTMC II a reality (reasons behind it may be anything from honest to completely unreasonable) a number of options arise. First of all as written in the About the biggest help is investing in the original SOTMC during the Autumn and Christmas Sales for $1.99.
Apart from this I'd also like to encourage you to share this page and the cause in every way possible. Start by sharing on Facebook, Twitter and the other gazillion social channels. E-mail works also! Go to your favorite bulletin board or discussion board and let everyone know that this is happening. Indeed, IT IS HAPPENING!
We need your help now, more than ever! Constant updated will follow once the sale is on with daily updates on sales. Sometimes here or on Facebook or minor updates may follow on Twitter so make sure you like us on FB and follow us on Twitter.
As the project unfolds We'll upload images from the gifts (as noted in About), steam keys will pop up on our Twitter page randomly, and we aim to make as much noise as we can.
Watch out for daily scheduled updates, keep your social network up-to-date and follow the development of SOTMC II which starts HERE and NOW!

In John C. Maxwell's book The 21 Irrefutable Laws of Leadership: Follow Them and People Will Follow You (2007), John shares the law of addition. While leaders often receive the accolades for success, great leaders understand that success results from the collective effort of a team. Using those successes to bolster one's own position at the exclusion of the team eventually erodes the loyalty of followers to that leader and the ability of the leader to inspire those that follow. Many view leadership and success in a similar way – climb the ladder as fast and far as possible. The law of addition focuses on advancing others, not ourselves.
Leadership is an act of service to others. The best place to serve is not always at the top. The best place to serve is where you add the most value to others. Leaders add value to others but valuing others, adding value to others, and relating to what others value.
Great leadership is based on establishing relationships and relationships require that you truly value people. I discussed this topic with a manager at Motorola whom I respect for his leadership ability and managerial skill. He stated, "It's not about me, it's about the people." That attitude, when exhibited in daily interactions, instills loyalty in the team.
Great leadership requires that you add value to others. Adding value to others necessitates that you build skills and experience then share that learning with others. This points us back to an important trait of the leader. The leader is dedicated to life-long learning, as ceasing to learn begins the erosion of the value that you can offer to other people.
Great leadership requires that you relate to what other people value. We expect to receive great service but often fail to give great service. Great service requires that you understand those you serve, which comes through listening to and learning about the people you interact with.
Leadership greatness begins by adding value through service to other people. Do you truly value the people with whom you interact? Do you add value to others by sharing your knowledge, skill, and experience? Do you understand and appreciate what other people value?

Wang, Jack & Holman Herman Melville's Moby Dick, BOARD BOOK, Chronicle Books, 2016. $9.95. Content: G.
This extremely simplified retelling of Moby Dick (12 words) introduces the characters - sailor, the setting - boat, and the plot - mad, and then shows, through felt dolls and scenes, the basic tale of the whale hunt.
This is a great deal of fun. I'm not sure that a board book age child would be interested in the story, but the pictures are great. I can see a teacher using this in an art or a literature class - can you tell the story in 12 words? This is a fine series of simple classic retellings. A great gift.

text: Hello everyone! I am new to the forum, and to my dslr. Hopefully I can keep the annoying questions to a minimum...I see there is already a wealth of information floating around here. I'm eager to learn from all of you! About me: I am 33, and a store manager for Gymboree corporation. I've been married for 14 years (yes, at 19 if you're not quick with math) to a Marine Officer. We've got 2 kids, one of whom is riding in horse shows these days. I got interested in getting a dslr after conversing with some of the professional photogs that roam the show grounds. I'd love to learn to take excellent photos in all areas, but particularly of my daughter and her various pony friends. Looking forward to getting to "know" you all!

I am surprised that News Tribune reports have been so quick to judge Proposition 1 by looking only at the total results (TNT, 2-9).
While I don't dispute that voters in outlying areas like Buckley, Graham and Orting weren't enthusiastic about Proposition 1, it was quite a different story in Tacoma proper where voters in many precincts approved Prop. 1 by 2:1 margins.
Up-to-date results at the precinct level are conveniently available for the public to view and download on the auditor's web page. When mapped, the election results conclusively show that voters in Tacoma, University Place, Lakewood and Puyallup were more supportive
of Prop. 1 than other areas. In fact, if one restricts the boundary of Pierce Transit to legislative districts 27, 28 and 29, Prop, 1 comes out ahead.
Pierce Transit should explore de-annexing those areas that don't want and can't support local bus service. If whole areas of people don't want and don't use services, they shouldn't have to pay for them.
I also encourage the City of Tacoma to look into proposing a transportation package that would restore transit service and fund street repairs. The City of Bellingham did that just last year under similar circumstances.

The first photo is the real thing, the rest are the early build showing the chassis and drive, 13 & 14 show it's first test run just getting the wheels wet!
Please let us know what your building. Send photos plus a few words about your model to Russ Chilcott -
click here to Email
By Paul Preston-Evans
With the approach of the Wet n Dry race I thought I would like to build an amphibian model based on the real thing. I thought about the Duwk but it worked out too expensive so I settled on the Seep which was a WWII amphibious jeep produced by Ford.
As you can see from the photos I am in the process of building the chassis and prop tunnels.
It is a 4 wheel drive vehicle, I have used a couple of driven axles one with steering and a Maverick drive unit and shafts. The suspension is Tamyia leaf springs, but I may add some small shocks as well.
This is the build so far I will post some more pictures as it progresses.
..the build continues, more photos have been added
3/3/13 (added photos 9-12)
Wheels have arrived - I'm very pleased with them, perfect scale.
All the hull work is finished and the inside has been resin coated (and none leaked out)
Next step is to start filling and sanding the outside of the hull and get a few coats of primer on her, then to start on the superstructure and detailing (although I have made a jerry can!).
11/4/13 (added photos 13 & 14)
It handles very well on the ramp and has a good turn of speed, drove a few inches into the lake and got the wheels wet for the first time, but not yet ready to go right into the water!

Halford - Time to Go!
Colchester's Greg Halford is adament that he will leave Layer Road, and with his contract over in the summer he is anxious as to what the future holds.
The 22-year-old seems set to leave the Layer Road at the end of the season, with his contract set to end in the summer.
The utility player has gained the interest of Premiership clubs, indeed Sheffield United failed with a £1 Million bid for the youngster last summer.
Reports now suggest that Colchester have turned down a £2million offer from Charlton Athletic for the highly-rated player.
Halford has been left wondering what the future holds and is keen to have sort his future out.
'It's getting closer to the end of my contract and I am keen to get away,' Halford said in the Sunday Mirror. 'It is all making me a bit anxious.
'There have been a few concrete bids from three or four different Premiership clubs already, but nothing has been accepted, which is a bit frustrating for me.
'Each of the offers was for quite a bit of money, but obviously Colchester are looking for a bit more. I'm not sure what that magic number is yet.
'I understand why Colchester do it - they want to keep me until the end of the season and try to get into a play-off position.
'But they know I won't be signing a new contract in the summer and I'll be sold for a fraction of what they could get now.
'There is still quite a lot of time left in January, so I'll keep hoping.'

The engineering sciences are a group of complementary disciplines characterized by major interaction between research institutions and industry. In this context, electronics and mechanics are linked and often closely imbricated in many fields both in terms of fundamental research and applications. The goal of the degree is to offer a selection of courses which qualify graduates for either highly technical professions, or research jobs in business or in public and university laboratories.
Mechanics and electronics courses have always helped established links between the universities and grandes écoles of the Paris region (ENS Cachan, ENSAM, EP, ESPCI, ENST, ECP and ENSTA) interested in the same fields, and often serve as a fulcrum. One of the goals of this Master's degree is to maintain and even develop these links, with the appropriate level of cooperation.
This degree is also open to study abroad.
Discipline-specific prerequisites:
Have a thorough knowledge of electronics and mechanics in general and specialized knowledge in certain disciplinary fields
Master the basic techniques and the equipment used in electronics and mechanics
Know how to apply them in the different disciplines
Know how to set up and run experiments
Know how to manage bibliographical resources (databases, online scientific journals, …) and master the scientific literature related to the relevant field
Ability to summarize
Know how to make a critical analysis of scientific results
Know how to use own knowledge and be creative to identify and then resolve a scientific problem
General prerequisite skills:
Ability to learn and to adapt
Know how to organize work and work in a team
Know how to communicate results (oral presentation, posters, written reports) and defend a project against detractors,
Be able to appreciate the quality and pertinence of a study or a scientific approach whether or not it is your own work,
Master scientific English (certified level B2)
This master's degree also aims to give students a solid theoretical and practical education which will enable them to find employment easily both in France and abroad. Therefore, students must obtain a grade of 750 in the TOEIC to be awarded their degree.
engineering, electronics, treatment of information, industrial computer science, mechanics, signals, robotics, civil engineering, acoustics, nuclear engineering, materials, structures, fluids
Continuation of study
The degree is run in collaboration with a group of laboratories from the university, as will as several engineering schools and partner establishments. This base ensures the possibility of undertaking a PhD with one of the two doctoral schools associated with the degree: SMAE or EDITE.
The main option is an engineering career in industry, where the multidisciplinary character of engineering is greatly appreciated.
Electronics and mechanics are organized in a very similar way, with a common base of 21 ECTS in M1 (Semester 1) followed by an orientation (end of S1 and S2) in one of the future M2 specializations.
Two internships, in the second semesters of both years, ensure a balance between theoretical and experimental training and a high level of contact with the professional world.
In first year there is therefore a choice between M1 electronics and M1 Mechanics.
Master 1
Common base and orientations
A 1st year internship at the end of S2
Master 2
3,5 electronics specialization
5,5 mechanics specialization
1 inter-major specialization (SdI, Phys)
10 specializations are offered in M2 :
Sensors, Measurement and Instrumentation (in liaison with the Physics and Applications major)
Industrial Computer Science, Imaging and Signals
Civil Engineering and Environment
Materials and Structural Mechanics
Fluid Mechanics: Foundations and Applications
Nuclear Engineering (in common with the Physics and Applications major)
Well-targeted public
- These specializations are open to continuing education candidates.
- In 2nd year, students from other establishments – universities or schools, French or foreign – may be admitted if they can justify to the admissions panel that they meet the prerequisites. Moreover, there are specific links with certain European universities.
- The mechanics specializations are open in 1st year to Bachelor of mechanics or physics graduates or equivalent.
- The electronics specializations are open in 1st year to Bachelor of electronics, physics or computer science graduates or equivalent if prerequisites are met.
Enrolment applications for master's degrees are open from mid-April to June. Apply online at www.upmc.fr.

Speculation is that the Midnight is actually a rebranded ZTE Concord from T-Mobile's prepaid line up.
Went to one of my local Walmart stores. Saw this new model hanging there. Don't get excited...It said Android 2.3 and 3.5" screen. I can't believe they have released an Android 2.3 phone!!!
What is of interest to me is that the Midnight is a T-Mobile phone. This is the first time I have seen any ST/N10/Tracfone in my region (western NC) for T-Mo. I'm shocked really...T-Mo is clearly the #4 carrier in my mountainous region.
I looked on the activation page for ST and the Midnight is there. When I search to buy phones in my zip code, it brings up several GSM models but no Midnight. I did manage to find this:
Talk about a disappointment
Speculation is that the Midnight is actually a rebranded ZTE Concord from T-Mobile's prepaid line up.
T-Mobiles new marketing campaign for Vermont and Western New Hampshire:
Try T-Mobiles blazingly fast GPRS data network. Were faster than iDEN and TDMA combined!
Yep looks like a crapper. Should be a $49 phone if you ask me!!
Sent with the HoFo App
While in store today, I noticed these Midnight phones now have a red & white sticker on the box that says you get a free month of service with purchase.

I used to be a fair-weather shooter.
Now, the days that I wouldn't have set foot outside are the days that inspire me most.
Up until recently, I was only inspired by those hot summer days with a long, beautiful golden hour. But I realized that I have to shoot year-round to really embrace the outdoors and to get the most out of my photographic journey.
Photography in the winter months is more challenging. You have to look for light in a different way, add intrigue to your images with intentional color, and capture the atmosphere around you.
Depending on where you are in the world, your winter will look different. My mother grew up in South Africa, so her Christmas was always in the heat of an African summer! In the Pacific North West, we have the opposite – cold temperatures with lots of rain and wind. This year, we actually had a week of snow, but it only stuck around for an hour each day before melting… so if you're looking for inspirational snow images, I suggest checking out Amber Walder's recent post!
1. As I always say, add a pop of color!
The extreme elements of the winter months don't come around very often. I like to use these days to capture emotion and atmosphere that are harder to capture during the warm summer months.
One thing you'll notice about winter is that the landscapes are muted. Whether it's all grey or all white around me, one thing I love to do is add a pop of color to my images. Depending on the color you use, it will add a different feel to the images.
2. Spend time visualizing your end product
Winter images take a lot more thought to produce. I like to prepare an idea or two for wind, rain, fog, and other elements that may come my way. I will then look into the forecast to see when I may be able to implement each idea.
Since weather around here can change by the minute, I have to be on my toes and prepared at all times. I keep my batteries charged and my tripod never leaves my car! Because I have my ideas all planned out, I am able to use a repertoire of ideas at the drop of a hat.
3. Know the timing and positioning of your ideal light
During the winter months, you have to look for light in a different way. For me, the days are overcast and the sun is only out for a few hours a day.
Do you know how the sun moves during your winter? I encourage you to track the sun closely. You can keep a diary, or make a mental note. Either way, it will help you time shoots for the best possible light. Remember that the sun may be a lot lower in the sky depending on your location, so it will be a dream to practice backlighting your subjects.
4. Photograph your favourite places in a different way
Winter means it gets dark well before dinner time. I used to see this as a negative, but now I know how to use it to my advantage.
There are more hours in the day to capture nighttime shots! I would normally have to stay up late for those, and I am the kind of person who loves to be in bed by 9pm. I have learned to embrace the early nights, because I can capture the local attractions in their festive décor. Get out there and photograph your favourite holiday locations!
Whatever the weather brings you this season, don't be afraid to get wet, muddy, or cold.
These conditions challenge you to plan your shoots in advance, and prepare you for anything. I promise that you will feel inspired and photographically invincible after a few shoots in these harsh conditions! Just remember that to capture a shot that no one else has, you have to put yourself in a place that no one else will.

Firefighters Battle L.A. County Wildfire
Firefighters were battling a wildfire in California's Angeles National Forest Monday, triggering the evacuation of 1,200 residents, officials said.
No injuries have been reported in the blaze, in the foothills near the San Fernando Valley, but about 450 homes in the Los Angeles's Lopez and Kagel canyons are considered threatened by the "Marek fire," The Los Angeles Times reported.One house, three motor homes, a garage and a shed had been destroyed by the blaze, which was 20 percent contained by Sunday night. Los Angeles County Fire Inspector Frank Garrido described the fire as "stagnant" and told the Times authorities were "putting a containment line around it."
But, he warned, forecasts for high Santa Ana winds could change the situation quickly.

"You have a right, yea even a responsibility not to just "Have It Your Way," but to "Be Your Way." People "can and should live how they want anytime." This makes the role of government and business the infinite proliferation of choices, a notion that's in everything from our fast foods to our laws."
"Have It Your Way!" You've heard it thousands of times. That's because Burger King has been drumming it into our heads for forty years. But you're not going to hear it any more. Burger King no longer wants you to "Have It Your Way!" That's not good enough for you. From now on, "Be Your Way!"
According to Associated Press, Burger King wants to communicate that customers, "can and should live how they want anytime. It's ok to not be perfect … Self-expression is most important and it's our differences that make us individuals instead of robots." It's a matter of "making a connection with a person's greater lifestyle."
Yes, we're talking validating existence with Whoppers. But, no, it's not crazy. The new slogan sums up the prevailing philosophy that drives our choices and much of our public debate on moral questions.
In his book, The Unintended Reformation: How a Religious Revolution Secularized Society, Notre Dame history professor Brad Gregory writes, "As [Alasdair] MacIntyre notes, the widespread default in Western societies at large is emotivism, an ethic of subjective, feelings-based, personal preference, which only exacerbates the unresolved and irresolvable [moral] disagreements. The de facto guideline for the living of human life in the Western world today seems simply to be 'whatever makes you happy'—'so long as you're not hurting anyone else'—in which the criteria for happiness, too, are self-determined, self-reporting, and therefore immune to critique …."
The result, as Gregory points out (again citing MacIntyre) is that questions of whether or not "Your Way" is good or bad, moral or immoral, acceptable in civil society or unacceptable in civil society are never resolved because they cannot be resolved. Marriage, life, immigration, education, sexuality, and anything else you can name including "Large or small fries?" are understood as nothing more than feelings-based personal preferences and, as modern psychology preaches, feelings can never be wrong.

Some Employees Face Higher Medical Costs Next Year
Changes affect HMO and PPO plans, prescription drug plan
Out-of-pocket medical costs will increase next year for some employees who get their health insurance through the University-offered HMO and PPO. But the University has held the increase to below the expected jump nationally, according to BU's Human Resources department.
"Health plan premiums are projected to be increasing by 7 percent nationwide in 2013," according to the Human Resources website. "The various plan design changes BU is implementing work together to keep the 2013 BU overall increase at 5.2 percent."
No changes will occur for the University's third insurance option, the high-deductible BU Health Savings Plan. All three plans are offered through Blue Cross Blue Shield of Massachusetts.
Employees in the Network Blue New England HMO whose primary care doctors are not affiliated with Boston Medical Center will be charged a $30 copayment for doctor visits, up from $25 this year. (Lower copayments of $15 for those with BMC doctors are intended to steer employees to "the high-quality care available" at BMC, the teaching hospital for the School of Medicine, according to the HR website.)
The co-payment for high-tech imaging, now $25, doubles to $50 next year for those without a BMC doctor. For those with BMC docs, the copayment will remain $25.
In the PPO, deductibles—what you pay for medical care before insurance kicks in—for employees who get care outside the PPO's physician network will increase to $500 (from $250) for an individual and to $1,000 (from $500) for a family. Those employees will also see the limit on their total out-of-pocket expenses for care increase to $2,000, from $1,000 (individual) and $4,000, from $2,000 (family).
Co-pays for brand-name prescription drugs in the HMO and PPO are also increasing, with a minimum of $50, up from $40, and a maximum of $70, up from $55. However, the co-pay for generic drugs will remain $8. If a prescription costs less than the minimum co-pay, the employee pays that lesser amount, says Peter Fiedler (COM'77), BU's vice president for administrative services.
Employees have until December 3 to enroll in or change health plans. Find a chart comparing annual deductibles and other highlights of the three plans here. Find a comparison of premium costs here. Blue Cross' online calculator of your costs or savings under the various plans, depending on your expected health needs, is here.
The University also offers a flexible benefits program that allows employees to pay their insurance plan premiums with before-tax dollars.1 Comments

Breathing Alive
I originally posted this in November 2013, but it still resonates with me, so here it is again. Because some words never lose their power.
Break out of your comfort zone. You were made for more, so much more. Have you purposefully chosen to live in the in between moments? Now's a good time to take stock of what really matters. Now is a good time to allow discomfort to propel you to the more your life was designed for.
Think of this … You'll land the dream job, then what? You'll get the salary you want, then what? You'll pay off your debts, then what? You'll do that dream thing you've been wanting to for years, and then what? You'll break barriers and tear down walls that lead to freedom, and then what? Will you have "arrived?"
Then what???
Let the question sit. Marinate on it. Does it unravel your objections? I sure hope so.
Those questions will come. Perhaps they're knocking at your down even now. Can you answer with confidence that you lived every pregnant-opportunity-moment to the fullest? Will you be able to boldly say, "I gave it my all every step of the way."
These moments are all we have. And I am reminded of these moments as I remember uplifting words from Jeff Goins today, "in all of life we are in this space." I only have the time I have now.
I only have the moments I'm breathing alive – now. I am IN the moment as it is, and I can choose to live in it. I can live it well by choice, or I can louse it up by choice. Whether I'm waiting in line, stopped at a light, waiting for someone to show up, or sitting in silence … I have a choice to live out each moment.
Life was made for living right, fully, intentionally, and in this moment. More wise words I've heard from Goins, "We can be who we'd like to be someday now." Powerful! We can be! Now!
That resonates with me. How can you ensure that every moment gives birth to that which is good, wholesome, empowering, uplifting, and encouraging?
You only have this one life. One brief life on earth to be about the business you were called and uniquely, divinely designed to do.
So … what are you going to do to live better among the in between moments?

Here's my card for this month's Sketch for You to Try. I used the Reverse Confetti I Like You stamp set (available along with the latest RC releases at i {heart} papers) along with a to go cup made with my Silhouette to put together this design.
Spectrum Noir markers to add some depth and dimension. I used dimensional dots to adhere it to the round panel, then stamped the sentiment next to the cup, inking the heart in red for contrast.
The stamped panel is adhered to a brown chevron patterned paper panel with a strip of brown faux suede ribbon across it. After matting the panel with brown cardstock, I adhered it to a kraft card base. For a fun detail, I cut apart a pearl flourish and added to the cardfront, positioning it so that it looks like steam from the cup.
Materials Used:
from i {heart} papers: Reverse Confetti I Like You stamp set, Tsukineko Memento Rich Cocoa and Lady Bug inks, Spectrum Noir markers (BT1, BT2), Echo Park Bundle of Joy-Boy 6x6 paper pad, May Arts brown faux suede ribbon, Sticky Thumb dimensional dots
other: Chocolate Chip and Whisper White cardstock (Stampin' Up!); Desert Storm cardstock (Neenah); stitched circle die (Lil' Inker Designs); taupe pearl flourish (Michaels)

In his letter in the Free Press on December 19, Barry McCartney asks "Where are you, Mr Yeo?"
I have discovered where he might be and as he is about to ballot Conservative party members to save his political career.
I ask that, before members cast their votes, they examine the financial interests of MPs, particularly those of Tim Yeo and his neighbouring MPs.
I have done this and, as Mr Yeo's alone would take up all of this page, it would be impossible to put these in my letter, whereas those of his immediate colleagues amount to nothing.
Therefore, I suggest anyone thinking of casting their vote in favour of Mr Yeo should type the following into an internet search engine: house of commons register of members' interests publications. Then go then to 2013-2014, part 1.
One will immediately see Mr Yeo may well be elsewhere, perhaps not in Westminster and certainly well outside his constituency.
In fact, he may be lucratively chairing or attending company board meetings, many miles away, as a non-executive director of a PLC or maybe talking to the Clean Energy Council during a 10-day visit to Australia.
I suggest we then examine the outside interests of other MPs who are our neighbours – for example, Brooks Newmark, Dr Dan Poulter and Sir Bob Russell. One will see that each of these MPs spends most of their long working hours either in Westminster or in their constituency and receive no huge payments from other work.
The contrast between them and Mr Yeo beggars belief.
I am not making a political issue out of this, but I have some experience of having known many MPs in my time from when I canvassed for Winston Churchill, who was my MP during the early 1950s.
I would suggest that the person adopted should be prepared to devote at least 90 per cent of their working time to their constituents. This will then clear the way for Mr Yeo to stand as a member for the Green Party.
I will certainly not be voting Conservative if they decide to support Mr Yeo.
