That only took a year
Well the dress itself didn't take a whole year- we've made several in the past year! But creating the sewing pattern with all the options that I thought (and rethought) it should have and getting it all fine tuned, published, printed, shipped, etc. That took a year. But it was worth it. I love, love, love, this dress. I originally jumped into the design here, when I was all about zigzagging, which I totally still am. The humble beginning of this dress was simply that I had made two Folk Dance Quilt tops, a warm version and a cool version, and couldn't decide which to photograph for the free pattern download. While we were preparing a shoot for the Good Folks collection I picked up the warm toned unfinished top and thought...wow, this would make a great dress. And it did. I simply wrapped the raw edged unfinished quilt top around Juliana, took a few quick measurements, fashioned a quick bodice that echoed the triangle design, pinned it all around her, clamped it tightly in place and had a fun photo shoot. And then the emails started. Why didn't I see that coming? I never see that coming.
Depending on your level of devotion to all the patchwork-y love though, there are four different options in the sewing pattern with various doses (or no dose at all) of the zig zag motif. Not to mention numerous combinations of making the dress strapped or strapless, short, mid length, full length and so on. All options are designed for the dress to be lined with an invisible side zipper. Strapless versions are designed to have a clever invisible elastic channel at the upper back bodice for additional support. Don't ever say I'm not supportive. I am here for you.
And after a year of working on and off on this one with all of its intricacies, I have to say, I am quite smitten with the simple mid length non-patch version. It is quite the ideal spring/summer/fall dress and I want one in every color to wear with every sweater, belt, necklace I own. And the pattern could not be better suited for the voiles, both for the outer dress and the lining. It's like wearing a cloud.
Thanks to so many (sooo many) of you who have emailed me ever since you saw the humble and spontaneous version here first last year and have waited so patiently for the debut of this pattern. And even thank you to those of you who have waited so impatiently (only if you consider a weekly email impatient). Enjoy! It's now available here and several other shops around the globe- so check your local fabric shop!
More pattern news coming later this week, and also some tips about sewing with voile!
xoox, AnnaMaria
Edited to add: the childrens' garments may or may not be patterns in progress... you know how it goes- they should be ready in about 4 years ::snicker

Anna - right after I emailed you about using the picture on my blog, I ordered your amazing pattern.
When my mum came for a visit this week the first thing I did was show her the dress and make her promise to help me the minute I get the pattern and the fabric - I too will have this dress in every voile fabric and different variation of pattern availabl!
It is simply lovely.
Thanks so much for another wonderful pattern (and beautiful fabric to go with).
PS - I made my mum the voile scarf as a thank you in advance for helping on the dress and she emailed that she has had a hard time taking it off she loves it so much.Lovely work! I know what it takes to put together a pattern, so I have to say, a year is a nice time frame ;)
Lovely work as usual...I'm drooling over my voiles. I just take them out, touch them, press them, fold them back up and stack them neatly on my cutting table, hoping someday they will become garments. Right now it's enough to have a lovely (and very tall) stack to inspire me day after day!Ahhhhh yes, the empire dress. I have to tell you I wish that "evening" was nowhere in the title.
I tried to convince my mother to order this pattern for our shop and she said... "It's an evening dress", without even looking at it!
I should've just added it to the order list anyway but I couldn't believe she said that!
I absolutely love this dress and will get the pattern one way or another. :o)Dear Anna Maria,
My painful frugality and constitutional inability to buy fabric online had left me pining and without your fabric for far too long.
I finally ordered Social Climber* and one of the voiles, and they arrived today. I knew they would be pretty. I knew they wouldn't disappoint. I didn't know the sheen and hand and utter silkiness of the voile would make me choke up.
Seriously, woman. I am in awe. More voile is already on its way to me.
*Don't even get me started on how much I love the Social Climber print. Nobody but you and Willendur in the 50's knows how to print roses on cotton like that.Gorgeous! I absolutely adore all of your fabrics. I really need to learn how to sew:) I actually bought an apron pattern and some of your fabric a few months ago. Alas, I didn't get to sew it....but my mom did and she just sent me the finished apron. It's beautiful: http://dailynibbles.com/2010/03/09/crafting-emmeline-apron/
ReplyDeleteI love the patterns and am sorely tempted to give one a go. I'm still totally in love with the Good Folks range - I made some curtains for my daughter's nursery from it and they make me happy every time I go in there! http://jo2308.typepad.com/blissedoutknitting/2010/02/where-was-i.html here's the link if anyone would like to see them (I'm stupidly proud of them!)
Jo xJust a quick note to let you know that a link to this post will be placed on CraftCrave.com in the Handcraft category today [10 Mar 09:38pm GMT]. Thanks, Maria
ReplyDeleteVery pretty! I would love to throw those on in the summer and go about my day. Great job, and beautiful fabrics.

Law Offices of Gary Green has offices located in Little Rock, Arkansas, and Memphis, Tennessee. Our lawyers are familiar with the individual laws of each state, and practice in the following types of family and marital law:
It is wonderful when a couple decides to give a child a home by adopting. Once the decision is made, however, you may seem unsure on how to begin and what legalities you may face. On the other hand, we can only imagine how hard it is putting your child up for adoption because you want your child to have a better life. If you are a couple wishing to adopt, please send us a letter and biography, which we will keep on file for 6 months. We represent birth mothers in adoption cases and those who need legal services for step-parent adoptions as well. If you are a birth mother needing assistance for an adoption placement, please call our Little Rock office and speak with Mike LeBoeuf, Randy Hall, or Gary Green.
While we have placed infants with adoptive parents from all over the U.S., we currently limit our family law practice to the State of Arkansas. We do not handle adoption cases in the State of Missouri. Our fees in adoption cases and the reasonable expenses of the birth mother are paid by the adopting parents. Attorney fees for all other family law issues are charged hourly against an advance retainer.
If you have questions or need additional information, call Law Offices of Gary Green toll free and without obligation at 1-888-442-7947 or send us an e-mail at firstname.lastname@example.com.
We understand that issues that arise within a family that need to be settled through the legal system can be exasperating and even traumatic. We represent those who need legal services for divorce and child custody. We treat each case with the delicacy and respect that our clients deserve and distinguish ourselves by seeking solutions best suited to the needs of our clients.
Divorce happens, and when it does, we will be there to help. We will represent you through the trial court level for a flat fee of $950.00 exclusive of costs if the matter truly is uncontested and for a quoted retainer, exclusive of costs, if contested. To us contested means formal discovery is filed by either party or custody of minor children is sought by formal pleading by both parties. We can only offer a flat fee service in the counties in which we have offices or the counties contiguous to those counties.

Programa académico
Perhaps Adobe Dreamweaver's greatest strengths are its powerful tools and its clean, simple interface. Our first lesson is all about introducing you to that interface. Not only will you learn the primary interface elements, but you'll also find out how to preview your work in multiple Web browsers—because rigorous testing is the key to a successful Web site. By testing and adapting your site documents across multiple browsers, you'll ensure that every site visitor, regardless of their browser, has a positive user experience.
Setting Up Your Local Site
Dreamweaver is a site creation and management tool, not just some glorified HTML editor. While you're building a site, Dreamweaver has the ability to track each color you assign, every image and multimedia file you insert, every Web address you refer to, as well as every step you take while working on a specific document. Dreamweaver then keeps all this information right at your fingertips to use again and again. In today's lesson, you'll learn the steps you need to take to put these features to work for you.
Inserting Text
The two most important aspects of any Web site are what it says and how it looks. In this lesson on structuring text, you'll learn how to group blocks of text into elements like headings, paragraphs, and lists. In certain respects, structuring text with Dreamweaver is very similar to working in your word processor. It's important to understand, however, that Dreamweaver is not a word processor. And perhaps more importantly, word processing and Web design are totally different worlds. This lesson also includes an introduction to HTML, HyperText Markup Language.
Formatting Text With CSS
HTML defines the structure of a Web page. When HTML was first created, nobody thought the Web would become what it is today. HTML was simply meant to be a fast and easy way for folks to format simple documents (black text on a white page). Web design wasn't even a thought. Today you'll get a short introduction to Cascading Style Sheets (CSS), and gain an understanding of how to implement CSS using Dreamweaver. We'll explore the basics behind how CSS works and how to use it to format, or style, your page text.
Working With Images
Believe it or not, the very early Web browsers couldn't display images, and it's doubtful the Web would have become so popular if that were still true today. In this lesson, you'll learn how to use Dreamweaver to insert and format images within your documents. Even though Dreamweaver isn't a true image-editing application, it does offer some very impressive editing tools, and we'll explore these features today as well.
Creating Navigational Elements
Well-structured navigation elements are the backbone of every successful Web site. In the past, designers attempted to make their navigation elements stand out using various image and JavaScript-based effects, more often than not guaranteeing that their navigation was anything but well-structured. Fortunately, there's a cure: list-based navigation elements. In this lesson, we'll expand our CSS horizons and discover how to format our structured lists any way we like.
Working With Tables
Find out how to insert and format standard tables. Tables are used to display data—columns and rows of information with headings and borderlines, just like the typical spreadsheet. In the dark ages of pre-WYSIWYG (What You See Is What You Get) HTML editors, digging through the long and complex code required to render a table on screen was mind-bending at best. With a tool like Dreamweaver, table editing becomes a snap. And in this lesson, you'll see just how true that statement is.
An Introduction to User Forms
Forms allow site visitors to input their information and send it to the Web server. For the Web server to use the data visitors enter, there must be a processing script on the server. This script, or groups of scripts, accepts the data and does something with it. But in order to use a form, you first need to build it. In today's lesson, we'll focus on the creation of form pages, their formatting, and their layout.
An Introduction to CSS Page Layout
Cascading Style Sheets (CSS) are the core of Web design. In this lesson, we'll examine some Web design principles and explore page layout using CSS. We'll also get acquainted with Dreamweaver's exceptional CSS tools that do the coding for us.
Working With the Assets and History Panels
Today's lesson is all about reusability, and in Dreamweaver, that means the Assets and History panels. You'll learn how to use the Assets panel to quickly access elements and get them into new pages, so you don't have to go hunting through your site for previously used content. When we explore the History panel, you'll learn how to undo anything you wish you hadn't done, as well as redo anything you want so that you can repeat formatting procedures throughout your site.
Site Management and Maintenance
In the life cycle of a Web site, the design and development period is the most fun. Unfortunately, it's also the shortest. In the long run, you'll spend much more time managing and maintaining your site. Dreamweaver's creators appreciate this reality of the Webmaster's work schedule and put as much thought and effort into Dreamweaver's site management and maintenance tools as they put into its development tools. In this lesson, you'll see how to use Dreamweaver's site management tools to define your remote site in order to upload and retrieve files from the Web server. You'll also learn about Dreamweaver's Check-In and Check-Out feature, which lets workgroups develop sites together without overwriting content. And, finally, you'll discover how to attach design notes so that fellow workers can communicate across conflicting work schedules.
Site Planning Strategies
By now you have an introductory knowledge of Dreamweaver, which means you know just enough to be dangerous. We'll spend our last lesson together going over site planning. You'll learn the five basic questions that you'll need to answer before starting any Web site project. We'll discuss where and how to gather your site content (text, graphics, and other media), as well as different strategies for organizing that content once you have it. By the time you finish this lesson, no matter what type of Web site you need to build, you'll know exactly how to plan for its success!

Sunshine Sunday - milestones

So adorable! Yay on loosing the helmet!
My son decided to stop using diapers at 29 months and it was GREAT, I hated having two kids in diapers. He stopped using pull-ups at 31 months. SO proud of my boy. My little girl just turned one and no walking yet... but hopefully soon!
Have a great week.Terrific milestones and lovely photos. Although my 2-soon-to-be-3 year old is potty trained during the day, she sometimes wets herself during the night if she's too deep in sleep. Our household has not experienced any milestones this week. Perhaps next week. Wishing you and yours a wonderful week ahead.
ReplyDeleteMy oldest is 2 since April and we started potty training. He did great and then suddenly he stopped wanting to go to the potty. So we are taking a potty brake and will try again in 2 weeks. I will be so happy when he will be diaper free. My youngest is 3 and a half months old and has now started to roll it´s great but now he is really wanting to do so much more and gets frustrated easy. He was so laid back the first 3 months.
And Yay for no helmet and fewer diapers to change!

Johnson County's Urban Services Division engaged Black & Veatch Corporation (Black & Veatch) to lead the development of a comprehensive update of the SMP Strategic Business Plan. A Steering Committee was established and provided the Black & Veatch team with essential information, input and guidance throughout the updating process. A cross section of stakeholders comprised the Steering Committee, including staff and elected officials from smaller and larger cities as well as officials from the County Commissioner, County Manager's office and Johnson County Public Works & Infrastructure department. The DRAFT report is available at the links below.
Strategy Fact Sheets
- Alternative Funding Sources
- Funding Approach and Criteria
- System Management
- Flood Damage Reduction
- Water Quality Focus
- Watershed-Based Organization
History of SMP
In 1988, the Kansas Legislature authorized counties to adopt a 1/10th-cent sales tax for the purpose of funding stormwater projects. Johnson County was the only county to implement the tax. These funds, dedicated to stormwater management, allow Johnson County 's Stormwater Management Program (SMP) to create a yearly stormwater management plan and provide 75 percent of funding for eligible projects in Johnson County and the cities.
The Board of County Commissioners created the SMP and the Stormwater Management Advisory Council (SMAC) in the early 1990s. SMAC helps coordinate stormwater efforts and advises the County Commissioners on stormwater management related issues.
SMAC is comprised of voting and non-voting members. Voting members are comprised of a representative from each of the cities in Johnson County and Johnson County . Non-voting members are representatives from other communities in the Kansas City metropolitan area, local, regional, state and federal agencies, and interested people.

BP Comment Quick Links
May 13, 2013 Monday Morning Ten PackMay 13
Michael Wacha, RHP, Cardinals (Triple-A Memphis) The 21-year-old righty has shown lots of polish early this season, pounding the strike zone with a three-pitch mix that includes a 90-95 mph fastball. He generates a steep downhill plane from his 6-foot-6 frame. His secondary pitches play well off the fastball––particularly his deceptive low-80s changeup, which is already a plus offering. Wacha's curveball has been a key development since college; it's presently average to solid-average and should become a third plus in the near future. With a projection for three 60-grade pitches, strike-throwing ability, and an overall mature approach to pitching, Wacha has all the makings of a durable no. 3 starter. He'll likely reach St. Louis at some point this season. If the Cardinals aren't in need of starters, he could make a short-term impact out of the bullpen, where he reached 98 mph in short bursts this spring. –Jason Cole Rafael De Paula, RHP, Yankees (Low-A Charleston) Miguel Sano, 3B, Twins (High-A Ft. Myers) Miguel Almonte, RHP, Royals (Low-A Lexington) Oscar Taveras, OF, Cardinals (Triple-A Memphis) Ross Stripling, RHP, Dodgers (Double-A Chattanooga) A fifth-round senior sign who largely worked between 88-91 mph in college, Stripling has consistently sat at 92-93 since signing, topping out a tick higher on occasion. He's a short strider but has done a better job of using his lower half to increase the velocity. The 6-foot-3 hurler throws strikes, gets good tailing life to his fastball, and works downhill. His polished curveball/changeup mix should give him three average-or-better offerings and lend to a no. 4 starter projection with a perfect-world no. 3 ceiling. –Jason Cole Gabriel Guerrero, OF, Mariners (Low-A Clinton) Trevor Story, SS, Rockies (High-A Modesto) Nick Williams, OF, Texas (Low-A Hickory) James Ramsey, OF, Cardinals (Double-A Springfield) 22 comments have been left for this article.

This challenge had me temporarily stumped...but then I thought about how I would accomplish this task as a paper scrapbooker, and voila!!! TFL!
Here are the three papers I used from Sara Beth Peterson's Shark Lagoon Collection:
The colors in your three papers are the perfect for for your photo. Like how you cut your shapes from the papers, and choosing a stripped paper added that pop of yellow to tie back to the arch in the photo. Great summer page.
Great job Julie!! Clever use of the 3 papers!
very nice way to capture the fun of this day! love the papers you chose for this LO.
Wow, so creative!! Love the paper embellies- wonderful and a real inspiration! The photos are a hoot and your colors are the best! Super fun layout!
WOW! I love this page. Your photos are wonderful and go so well with the papers that you chose. That large photo is incredible.
'Cool' photos. Love the background photo. Great layout.
How clever you are. I really love this.
Beautifully arranged and I love the way you used the papers. Your colors are perfect for those fun photos!
That set was perfect for these photos! I love how you've framed the photos with the paper cut-outs.
This looks fabulous! I love the three photos down the side with the cutouts. The flower adds a pop and really draws your eye to the top photo.

The Cleveland Golf/Srixon Scottish Senior Open will provide plenty of golfing entertainment for the local golfing community at the Fairmont St Andrews venue from August 20-22.
International Golf Development (IGD) will provide a feast of golf at their Interactive Golf Zone and on the SNAG (Start New At Golf) Golf Course.
The Interactive Golf Zone will allow local kids and their families to get an introduction to golf using the SNAG coaching system – an innovative; first touch golf coaching system which has dramatically improved access to golf in the USA, Korea and Japan.
The SNAG system, which uses just two clubs (the Roller and the Launcher) is designed to increase retention rates as it is fun and easy to use. SNAG equipment provides the perfect introduction to golf, helping to build up skills and confidence before playing the full game.
IGD coaches will be on hand to help at Fairmont St Andrews, where the Interactive Golf Zone includes 3 different coaching stations to help participants learn the basics of golf.
The SNAG Rollers and Launchers come in sizes to suit all and the SNAG coaching tools assist in making the learning of golf fun. Once participants have complete a coaching session, they then have the opportunity to test their newly acquired skills on the SNAG Golf Course, a unique addition to selected European Senior Tour event this year.
The interactive golf zone and the SNAG Golf course are open to all participants and promise much fun. The IGD Interactive Golf Zone was launched, at this year's Matrix Jersey Classic on the Senior Tour.
Dominique le Curoit, a parent from Jersey, was one of the first to participate in the Golf Zone and play the SNAG course. "It was fantastic, I learned to play golf alongside my 10 year old son and was then able to compete against him," she said.
The Interactive Golf Zone will be open each morning from 9am until play finishes each evening. IGD accredited coaches will be on hand to help any interested golfers.

REVIEW: The Wizard Of Oz | La Boite Theatre, Brisbane
Did the world need another Wizard Of Oz? Brisbane's La Boite offers one anyway -- a high-camp farce that doesn't present much to chew over.
Sep 12, 2013
Did the world need another Wizard Of Oz? Brisbane's La Boite offers one anyway -- a high-camp farce that doesn't present much to chew over.
Open wide! Come inside! It's … The Wizard of Oz, after a fashion.
We enter the theatre space through a set straight out of Play School, with six of the characters that the Friends of Dorothy know so well, dressed in authentic-looking costumes (well done, Simone Romaniuk) romping around on a meadow of Astroturf, with only Margi Brown-Ash visible through the square window of the play house. She's playing — well, who can be sure? Aunt Em perhaps, as well as Toto the dog, well-upholstered in a middle-aged frock, tottery high heel-less shoes, a collar and lead attached to her back rather than her neck, a cigar and, later, a black dog's head.
So let the story begin. For it is, after all, only a story, as Brown-Ash reminds us from the storybook she carries around with her. Which is just as well, for it's not a story we recognise, nor is it meant to be. Steven Mitchell Wright, playwright Maxine Mellor and The Danger Ensemble have wisely decided not to attempt a re-write of the iconic book/film, but have used the characters to examine instead the nature of story itself, the difference between a memory play and a dream play.
It's a cunning move, because nobody can criticise the concept, or that the fact that nobody sings Somewhere Over The Rainbow — and for this relief, much thanks. We are left with the ensemble's personal construct/s, and all a reviewer can do is to say whether it worked. For me, who always tries to work against the Grumpy Old Reviewer stereotype, it was like the curate's egg, good in patches.
I hated the music (sorry Dane Alexander) but that's a generation thing. I loved the two actors who played who I think were the Wizard himself (all that green hair and a lime green suit) and the Wicked Witch of the choose-your-own-Point-of-the-Compass, and I especially loved the Darth Vader headdress that the Wizard wore to dazzle everyone with his brilliance. I wasn't so sure about the three farm workers — Tin Man, Scarecrow and Lion — as Munchkins in bad drag straight out of a high camp cabaret at one point, nor the naked blow-up sex doll complete with all her bits that was the "Wicked Witch is Dead" character.
I laughed more than I blocked my ears, which is an achievement for me, but I found the high-octane philosophical musings rather pretentious, interfering as they did with the roll-over rhythm of the action.
As madcap theatre it was fantastic, and set, costumes, music and lighting worked admirably to make a jolly romp. But as a piece that gave you something to grab onto, to think about, I have to agree with T S Eliot: "Between the idea and the reality … between the conception and the creation falls the Shadow." My problem is that I can't pin the Shadow down.
But that's in the nature of Shadows. Of one thing only can we be sure, Toto: we're not in Kansas any more.
So let's give the last word to Judy Garland, as the program notes do: "It's strange when an illusion dies. It's as though you've lost a child."
The details: The Wizard Of Oz plays La Boite's Roundhouse Theatre until September 28. Tickets on the company website.

Mantic has given us permission to link to his videos that train for many, many aspects of the wetshaving experience. Are you interested in learning more about wetshaving? Please see the video's created by Mantic on YouTube... Mark has created an entire series on wetshaving techniques and covers many nuances of the art both basic and obscure. These are worth taking the time to explore and are quite a resource. This is for learning purposes only, there is no endorsement of the forum in any way shape or form being offered by Mantic in allowing me to offer these learning tools to you. http://www.youtube.com/user/mantic59 Thank you Mark!
Definately a great resource for new and experienced shavers alike! I'm always looking forward to Marks next video.
great news , Mark is the best. Would it be possible to have this is a Sticky -Stick ! What I mean by that is whenever you go to Todays Posts that its the first thread or info people see. same goes for Leisureguy's Blog those two should be the first thing NOOBs should bump into. I dont know if this is possible though.... I mean I know you should be able to find it by itself by looking in the ROOT of the Forums Thread. but I always start out by looking at Todays post to see whats HOT.
These videos are fantastic, they are the primary reason I got into traditional wetshaving. But that being said, shaving is about customization. Mark knows that as well as anyone and he states it very clearly. He mentions it numerous times in his videos. So if a particular technique doesn't work very well for you, feel free to try something else. But his principles are quite solid and should be heeded. Good luck and Good Shaves to Everyone! ::
Fantastic I love the video thank you so much for the URL. I'll be sure to show it to everyone who needs help. It's very informative I'd reccoment the video to all people new to the art of shaving. Thanks.
Many Thanks Yes, Mark thank you. I've only been wet shaving for a week now, but these videos have accelerated my learning curve greatly. Jeff
Jeff, welcome to the Shave Den. Yeah, Mark's videos are an invaluable source of info. They probably have saved many newbies from further frustration (and pain!)
videos I wish i could watch one of marks videos but my computer freeze up half way throw one does anyone have any ideas on how too fix this problem ? I would like too be able too watch one::
New video up today on how to keep your lather warm, and one coming on how to shave with an adjustable. Keep them coming, Mark http://www.youtube.com/shavetutor

Sporadically charming and quite amusing, but torpidly paced.
Martin Rejtman's 1999 "Silvia Prieto" fashioned a deadpan farce from the aimless circulation of objects and identities around its unsmiling title character. The Magic Gloves, the Argentine writer-director's 2003 follow-up, is a similarly absurdist smart-com featuring another depressed protag navigating a yuppie Buenos Aires milieu.

SAN DIEGO, CA -- (Marketwire) -- 02/06/13 -- To help its students realize their dreams of a college education, Grossmont and Cuyamaca colleges will be hosting Give the Dream, a series of fundraising events throughout East County on Saturday, March 16. The funds raised will be used for Dreamkeepers®, a program that makes emergency grants to students facing unexpected financial hardships.
This fundraising extravaganza will bring together the East County community in support of helping students reach their educational goals in a fun and celebratory environment. Attendees can participate in a counting sheep contest for great prizes, enjoy live music from The Heroes (Grossmont Center only) and KPRI Radio Popup Bands (Parkway Plaza only), view eye-catching installations and interact with dream interpreters. Donations will be accepted at the events and can also be made online at www.givethedream.net.
Specifically designed for community colleges, Dreamkeepers was created by Scholarship America®, a Minneapolis-based organization that has helped more than 2 million students follow their dream of achieving a college education. Grossmont and Cuyamaca colleges are two of only 43 community colleges around the nation selected to participate in the Dreamkeepers program. Since 2010, nearly $100,000 has been granted to 280 Grossmont and Cuyamaca students. Students facing an emergency receive not only financial assistance, but resources to help them build their money-management skills.
Give the Dream events are FREE and open to the public, and will take place on Saturday, March 16, from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. at the following locations:
Grossmont Center
5500 Grossmont Center Drive

Meditations on God, His Word, and His World (under the grace found only because of Christ Crucified)

Drinking Beer and Reading Romans
Great article by Abraham Piper about his rebellion and God's grace to bring him home. Also, fantastic advice for believing parents of unbelieving children.

You may want to check the link to the article. . . it's not working for me.c

I just checked it and it seems to be working fine. Sorry you could not access it.
I got it to work. It was probably a poor connection on my end. Sorry for the earlier comment. Now I'm off to read the article.
As I read this article I couldn't help but think of students I know that have made a profession of faith in high school but when they get to college they turn their backs against their faith and begin to live a life of sin. So what is a parent to do when their child (now an adult) takes this path. Do they confront the sin in the life of their son/daughter and if they don't repent then follow Matthew 18:15-18? Or do they do as Abraham Piper suggests? In this situation, I lean towards tough love and church discipline as outlined in the Bible
- justin said...
Yes, if they are a member of a church, you certainly practice church discipline. I think the article assumes a parent/child relationship rather than a elder/member relationship.
what happens when that member of the church is a child of a parent (both members at the same church)? How is that parent to treat that child then? Matthew 18:15-18 and 1 Corinthians 5 speak of how a members as well as elders are to deal with another member caught in sin.
- justin said...
Anyone else have any thoughts on this?
I have heard of dads who were pastors having to practice church discipline on their children.
Another benefit of a plurality of elders!!!! - 9:54 AM
- Reegz said...
Tough subject. I liked the article a lot. Hard to do either way.
Personally I think if the wayward child is a member of the same church the parent is a member at, then it is the parents responsibility to confront their child of their sin and if no repentance is shown by the child then the parents has to go to an elder and if necessary to the church.
I realize this is hard when dealing with your own child, but I see no where in scripture where the parent is told to do otherwise.
I speak with experie - 5:54 PM
- Pastor Randy said...
In this situation I think the church did have to exercise discipline on Abraham. In fact, John Piper even prayed about whether or not he should step down (from what I understand). I think that a parent has responsibility over their children, but when they're an adult (or a member of the church) then the elders also have responsibility over their souls. Most of us do not like this because it is a very uncomfortable situation. The principles remain though, a parent responsible for their children and an elder responsible for their members. These are two drastically different scenarios with basically the same hope for an outcome.
- The Taras Family said...
Dallas sent me this article just this week. There were some things that I didn't agree with. I do think that we have a responsibility as parents to love our children and they should always know that they can come home. But there are rules. They need to see that the way of the transgresser is hard. THey should not be able to be under our roof and living however they please and we just say and do nothing. (He made the point that we shouldn't hound our kids or say anything if they come home smelling like pot)We have to show them grace and mercy yes, but enable them- NO.
If our kids choose to live a life of sin and rebellion there may come a time where we let them go and face the consequences of their sin. We will love them and seek them out and share Christ with them always- but not allow them to "come and go as they please" and recieve help from us if they choose a sinful lifestyle.
God does this sometimes with us. HE is a loving father.
I totally agree about the whole church discipline thing- I don't think it should be over children- young adult teenager maybe depending on circumstances. Someone brought up 1 Cor. 5- we just went through church discipline in our church with one of my family members- it is the most beautiful process I have ever seen in the life of our church. There is nothing harsh about it. It is the most God-honoring thing that we can do with a "so called brother" given into sin who is unrepentant. Keep in mind this process is long- Even if this person never repents and comes to Christ, which we hope and pray for- God was glorified and our local body was purified.
We still love this person and share the gospel with him- and show him as much grace and mercy as we can, but there are certain comforts that he doesn't recieve anymore- like coming and going however he pleases in whatever condition he pleases...and I think this is wise to have these rules... - 8:59 AM
on my part...it's gonna be working. even though i'm still single and have no experience in raising children but base on the experiences of those devoted parents whom i have witnessed who continually show love and care to their children not to the extent of the negligence of reminders and rebukes, but in a gentle manner with no people around. As you pray to God sincerely and persistently. Thank you for your article Abraham.

Clear Springs charging into season
Published 2:11 pm, Tuesday, November 27, 2012
Another Clear Springs girls basketball team is state-ranked and off to a red-hot start under coach Pam Crawford.
So what else is new?
The Lady Chargers, despite a schedule that could keep you up at nights, won nine of their first 10 this season and were Class 5A ranked No. 3 in one state poll (Texas Girls Coaches Association) and No. 9 in another (Texas Association of Basketball Coaches).
Numbers, except the next victory, mean little to Crawford, but with a career record of 437-191 (and 187-56 in district games) in 20 years plus 10 games this season, those are figures that rate with the very best.
She's 122-30 overall and an incredible 49-5 in district in her fifth year at Clear Springs, and has taken 17 straight teams to the playoffs as a head coach at Crosby (106-89 in seven seasons), Clear Brook (209-72 in nine seasons), and Clear Springs.
The Lady Chargers have won the last two 24-5A titles with 14-0 marks, and have won 32 straight district games dating back to a 65-53 loss to Clear Creek on Jan. 26, 2010.
Crawford surpassed 400 wins late last season, and if Clear Springs would have fielded a varsity team when the school opened in 2007-08 (played only a sub-varsity schedule), she would be even closer to 500.
It is impressive, but what matters most to Crawford is teaching her players the entire game of basketball.
"Why decided we couldn't build a team that consistently goes for championships with one-dimensional players," she said. "We're all about the same height, and we teach our guards and posts the same things because they will have to do it all on the court.
"It's no secret we're not a tall team, and opponents with good size can hurt us, so much of the time it's who can outlast who as far as style of play."
Clear Springs likes to pressure the ball all over the floor, and push it when they clear a defensive board, and junior Brooke McCarty is once again a key component averaging 19.5 points, 4.7 assists, 3.9 steals and 2.4 rebounds.
But that's only a part of a well-oiled machine that also highlights senior starters Courtnie Latham (12 points, 5.2 rebounds, 4.1 assists, 2.1 steals per game), Ryshinique Ball (9.8 points, 5.1 rebounds), Kaylin Roher (8.1 points, 2.5 rebounds, assists, steals), and Jo Ann Lira (7.8 points, 3.6 rebounds, 2.4 assist and 1.5 steals).
McCarty committed to Texas a couple of weeks ago, and Lira (Lamar) and Latham (Tulane) will also play at the next level, and they're part of a regular lineup that ranges in size from 5-6 to 5-9.
The Lady Chargers also have reserve firepower in juniors Paige Tippet, Monique Britton and Jaon Redric, seniors Alysse Dowdy and Kelly Quinonex, and 5-11 sophomore Maggie Carter, and several of those players could start for many teams.
Crawford likes a tough early schedule, and this season, her Lady Chargers have recorded impressive wins over state-ranked teams like Manvel 63-53, Cy Falls 55-52 and Dekaney 59-43, and the only loss in the first 10 outings came against impressive-and-powerful Bellaire 66-54.
This week's agenda included another big challenge against The Woodlands (late Tuesday, Nov. 27), and following an open night on Friday, Dec. 4, Clear Springs hosts Deer Park at 7 p.m. Tuesday, Dec. 4 and competes in the 55th annual Peggy Whitley Clear Creek ISD Classic from Dec. 6-8.
The Lady Chargers meet Cy-Fair in a Whitley opener at 3 p.m. on Dec. 6 in Butler Gym at Clear Creek High School.
The 24-5A opener is with Dickinson at 7 p.m. on Dec. 14 at Clear Springs.
"We've had a positive start for the most part, but we're still working on quite a few areas, and facing the kind of schedule we have will really expose our weaknesses," Crawford said. "We had to change our schedule this season and it was a great opportunity to be able to face some of these great programs."

How many people publishing their own comics have posed themselves the question "If only I knew when I started my web comic what I know now"?
Well, Andrew John Standish, creator of the web comic Psychodialetical, certainly has. But if he thought producing a web comic was hard, then getting his first print collection A Chronicle of the Psychodialetical Universe, now available through bookshops and online stores, was also a bit of an eye-opener.
Andrew has started blogging about the experience on the downthetubes forum and with his permission, we're re-publishing an edited version of his first posts on his experience here...
Talk about a learning curve! Getting my first collection of Psychodialetical has certainly been one, but on the plus side, I'm having a blast telling the story, which far outweigh the problems encountered. The project wasn't helped by some basic errors on my part when it came to preparing the comics for print...
My first mistake was deleting all my original finished files to save computer memory. Wrong! I should have kept those higher resolution files as that's what you need to create print quality work. Then, I worked at low resolution for display on the web. Wrong! When you're working on any comic, always work in the highest resolution your system is comfortable with (no less than 300dpi), then save those high res files. Then re-save a copy of your work at web resolution (72dpi) for any web comic edition. (There's more about the differences here on Suite 101)
My third mistake, compounding the first two, was believing that the on screen display shows accurate image of printed page. Wrong!
If I was to publish a print edition of my comic, I needed to find some workarounds. First, I had to collect and save all the finished pages posted online, and increase dpi to 300 and resize. Anyone who's tried this will tell you it's no easy task: re-sizing doesn't replace vital information that's no longer there, the added detail vital for print. I had to carefully re-touch every single image, ensuring lettering was within "safe area" for IndyPlanet's Print on Demand requirements; and add "bleed" to the edge of the pages.
As you can imagine, I pretty much ended up re-drawing and re-lettering the whole thing. Did I say never delete your original scans? Never delete your original scans!
Finally, I had to print out the finished pages and examine for tonal inconsistency and clarity, etc. (There was also the matter of overcoming the limitaion of working in Photoshop Elements (it only saves as RGB, most printers rightly recommend CMYK) and, because I don't have a design tablet to draw on, everything had to be done via the mouse. My solution to the first limitation was to find a printer that would accept RGB files (although it may have been simpler to find a free program to convert to the more acceptable format, but since all interior pages are black and white it didn't seem worth it).
The solution to the second limitation - the lack of a tablet - was simply a case of gritting my teeth and getting on with it: a very time consuming process.
So that's the way not to prepare your first printed work. Better preparation (more thought before action) and cash outlay (on software/hardware) may have speeded up and simplified the process. But, in spite of this, I'm quite pleased with the results.
Getting the Book "Out There"
Having finally navigated through the technical aspects of printing and distribution I've now managed to make Volume 1 of A Chronicle of the Psychodialetical Universe available through bookshops and online stores. But even here, there have been a few hitches along the way, in their own way as frustrating as the problems I experienced preparing to make the leap from web version to print edition.
The biggest problem was getting an accurate listing on Pub Web, the basic industry tool to provide information to booksellers. It's free if you have an ISBN allocation (the coding that gives every published book its unique identity) but only allows the cover art, title, price, genre, ISBN, distributor and author name to be shown. If you want an author biography and synopsis, you have to pay to join the enhanced listing service.
My problem was that it wasn't allowing me to edit the listing to show the revised price and publication date, so WH Smith and various other stores are showing a higher retail price and later publication date than is accurate. Also the cover art, which I had to add later (the ISBN authority Nielson lists your first publication for you and you have to amend their listing when your Pub Web membership details come through), was missing.
Luckily, Pub Web sends out their data base to the book trade monthly, so these inaccuracies will be amended when the stores load in the new database next month. I'll not get caught out next time though because from now on I have the facility to load new title information myself.
I guess it's a blessing that the shelf life of a book is longer than the single month of a traditional comic-book, or these errors would have been fatal.
Promoting the Book
The next step is to get the message out to folks that the book is ready and available. It's still early days but I've done a few ads with Google and a couple on Facebook, one ad links to the books Facebook fan page, one to its Amazon sales page and one focused on the American market, to the IndyPlanet print on demand edition's page. The ads were relatively inexpensive and even if they don't result in direct sales at least publicises the work.
I'm also working on a competition for the Facebook fan page with prizes of merchandise from the Psychodialetical shop and eventually I'll get around to focusing on the traditional comic-book fan market... that'll be phase two!
I'm seeing this property as a long term commitment and the more I write about the Psychodialetical Universe the more it reveals to me it's wonders and mysteries, there are lots of stories to tell and I'm having a blast telling them!

The Ferrari driver who allegedly slammed into a motorcycle cop, dragged him along the road and then sped away from the mangled body took just hours to find, as investigators followed a trail of brake fluid into the gated estate of one of Thailand's richest families. When Vorayuth, 31, has been called in to face authorities, he hasn't shown up, claiming through his attorney that he's sick or out of the country on business. Within weeks of the accident, The Associated Press has found, Vorayuth was back to enjoying his family's jet-set life, largely associated with the Red Bull brand, an energy drink company co-founded by his grandfather.
Although reheating takeout when you're too busy to cook is one of life's great pleasures, leftover rice can actually be scarily bad for you, the NHS say. Because if you didn't already know, you can get a pretty grim case of food poisoning from eating reheated rice; it's not the reheating that causes the problem, but instead the way the rice has been stored after being cooked the first time. So uncooked rice often contains spores (cells capable of reproducing quickly) of Bacillus cereus - a bacteria strand that can cause food poisoning - that can survive when rice is cooked. And if the rice is left standing at room temperature after it's been boiled, the spores can grow into bacteria, which will

Three would-be robbers were shot and killed Monday when an Oklahoma homeowner's son opened fire on them with an AR-15, authorities said. Wagoner County sheriff's deputies were called to the home in Broken Arrow, southeast of Tulsa at around 12:30 p.m. local time. When they arrived, they found the three dead suspects and two uninjured residents. Sheriff's spokesman Deputy Nick Mahoney said the suspects enetered the home through a glass back door with the intent to burglarize it. It was not immediately clear why they picked that home. Mahoney said the suspects encountered the homeowner's 19-year-old son, who opened fire after an exchange of words. Two of the suspects died in the home's kitchen

NASA has managed to capture some pretty stunning photos of all the cool stuff they've spotted over the years, and rarely does it fail to amaze. There's images of planet surfaces, the rings of Saturn, and even black holes flying through space totally unchecked . Rarely, however, does a photo look so unreal that at first glance you'd be likely to mistake it for a work of Earthling art. A new photo captured by NASA's Juno spacecraft falls into that category, and oh what a sight it is. The image, originally taken by Juno's "JunoCam" camera, was taken in early February and shows Jupiter's ever-swirling mass of storm clouds from an altitude of roughly 9,000 miles. The storms which continually rock the planet take on a milky appearance when captured up close, and a citizen scientist named Roman Tkachenko took the liberty of enhancing the photo's colors to bring out even more of the defining lines and edges. The Juno craft, packed with all kinds of fancy monitoring equipment, made its fifth flyby of the planet on Monday, which is also the fourth "science orbit," which is the name they give the flybys when all the instruments on board are up and running. The craft's next flyby won't happen until late May 2017, so it's a rare and exciting event when one of these close passes goes by without a hitch. The craft's data is currently being sent to Earth where researchers will continue to mine it for precious information about our solar system's most intimidating planet.

TNGA Rep. Matthew Hill & HB3808 (2012): Sermon On The MonsTNGA Rep. Matthew Hill (R-7, Jonesborough), legislative sponsor of the Tennessee Life Defense Act of 2012, or HB3808, was defending his bill that would require all doctors who perform abortions to obtain admitting privileges at area hospitals before the Tennessee House Health and Human Service Committee and also originally requiring the state to publish records that would identify doctors performing abortions in Tennessee and compile a very broad demographic database about the women undergoing abortions in Tennessee. Critics of Hill's HB3808 legislation cited the bill was a merely a legislative attempt to providing anti-legal abortion rights opponents with the information to identify, assault, and terrorize doctors and women seeking abortion services.

Bank tellers serve a vital function in a bank's operations, and they set the tone for customers' banking experiences. Typically, candidates need only a high school diploma and a month of on-the-job training to become a teller. The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics counted 544,150 tellers earning an annual median of $24,590 as of May 2011. To be successful, tellers need skills in several areas, including math, customer service and communications.
Math Skills
Bank tellers need strong math skills to count and handle large amounts of money. When a customer wants to withdraw money, tellers must determine whether the client's account balance meets the requirement for the transaction. When they buy and sell currency from bank vaults for cash drawers, tellers need the ability to stay within cash limits. Their cash drawers need daily balancing as well. These duties require the skill to add, subtract, multiply and divide quickly and correctly. Even an understanding of algebra, geometry, calculus and statistics comes in handy. Those disciplines shape the ability to use math to solve problems, and to understand basic accounting principles and practices.
Customer Service Skills
Tellers need customer-service skills because they interact constantly with bank clients. As a representative of the bank, it's important to be friendly, helpful, courteous and patient. Tellers should also understand what a customer wants, and be able to direct him to the right bank service. Plus, they must pay attention to the immediate needs of customer while preventing exposure to loss or fraud.
Computer Skills
Computer skills are key for tellers, who spend much of their day using computers to help clients. Computers help tellers check customers' financial information, as well as research information on products and services. Part of the job also calls for regular data entry on computers. Word processing and managing electronic files and records are also routine, computer-related duties for tellers.
Communications Skills
Tellers need strong speaking, writing and listening skills. They must understand and answer customer questions regarding interest rates, service charges and account histories. Communicating with managers and co-workers in writing or in person is a big part of the job, too. Also, because part of the job includes selling financial products, such as certificates of deposit, tellers must be able to articulate program benefits.
Job Outlook
The U.S. Bureau of Labor Statistics projects 1 percent growth in the number of teller jobs from 2010 to 2020. That's well below the average growth rate of 14 percent for all U.S. occupations. Positions for tellers will not grow significantly because the growth of bank branches is expected to slow. Also hurting job growth is the rise in online and mobile banking, which allow customers to handle their own transactions with fewer visits to the teller window. Despite slow overall job growth, tellers entering the field should be able to find work because the occupation has high turnover, and that will create new openings.
