@Hhm7163 lots of very good and accurate advice in this thread.
@Flash shares that there are 2 ways of burning any CD/DVD. There are "standard" (my word for it) and there is "multisession". Windows provided you with a standard process. This causes the CD to close in such a way as it prevents any future writing to it. Using the "multisession" approach allows Puppy to save all of your work when it Shuts-down.
There are 2 things I wish to try to help you understand in this post; namely LAN and then using Puppy to write a mutisession CD/DVD as @Flash recommends.
When Puppy(s) boot, LInux will inventory your machine. For the LAN, your laptop has a wired ethernet LAN adapter built onto its motherboard. You have said that your router is "very near" your laptop, so I'm sure that you ran a wire from the laptop to the router and that was how you used the booted Puppy to connect to the Internet.
This procedure is the simplest, easiest way to get Puppy up and running over your LAN.
To use your WiFi card, Puppy MUST have a driver to associate when it boots in order for it to be available for your use. IF it does not have a driver at the time it was loading, you WILL NOT SEE THE WiFi when you start the utiltiy to access your LAN...
, the wired adapter.
Mutisession CD/DVD
As @Flash helped you with, if your laptop has a CD burner or a DVD burner, then you can use Puppy, once booted, to write any additional ISO you choose, easily. He show 2 methods to help you.
This is really the easiest to create the multisession CD/DVD. It just needs to know where the ISO is, and everything is done for you.
This utility will take a
and will properly create it so that it is a multisession, bootable, Puppy CD/DVD. Once this is completed, you can use it to boot Puppy and run and make all the necessary tailoring or changes you might choose. When you are complete and shutdown the laptop, you will be give the chose to "Save to CD". This will save everything you did in such a way that it will all be brought back, the next time you boot the DVD/CD.
This utility is a feature rich tool which not only does multisession, but also does so much more....BUT, you will spend moments (maybe many) to learn its nuance for using it.
Hope this helps

Hi hhm7163.
A little tip for you: Unless you have planned to remove or disconnect the harddisk, or just not use it at all, you could use the partition tool that you find under 'System' in the menu (mine is 'parted', yours may be another), and make a Linux swap partition on the HD. If you are not familiar with the concept, the 'swap' partition works as virtual memory, that your ordinary memory may access, when running tasks that demands more memory than what is physically installed. I would suggest a 1.5 Gb swap partition. Puppy will automatically search for swap partitons, and use them without asking or telling you, when needed. A swap partition is not used for anything else.
Re. your wifi: I run dpup_485 as of this writing, and my ZTE MF636 modem is not recognized automatically, it is one of those modems that also has a function as a memory stick.
Try attaching the modem after bootup, and give the system some time to react, if the modem has a light, check if there is any reaction at all.
If the modem come up on the desktop as a disk symbol, try mounting it, and then immediately unmounting it, and wait for it to come up on the desktop as a modem/stick symbol.
Then run he connect wizard.
I hope your new linuxbox will fill your needs, you'll be surprised how little you need other computing power. In time you'll learn how to remaster an .iso to be absolutely perfect for you personal use. Advice: don't Google too much, you'll find all you need here in the forum...
I do as gcmartin, I run off a live-CD/DVD only, and I hardly ever use my multi-GB Debian installation anymore. I use a portable HD for USB, to store the few things I really need. It gives me the fredom to only carry a puppy CD/DVD and my tiny HD (or USB stick), ready to be used in any PC, anywhere.

Post subject: Puppy Linux Slacko
Subject description: Live CD & USB adapter
I have been attempting other Puppy versions and all without success. None will boot. In making choices to try they made reference to i386 and i686. I chose i686 because I have Pentium 4. Now while booted to Wary I was looking at the HD and saw in my XP folders one called I386. This may mean that I have i386 and I need to search for other Puppy choices to work with my 512 MB RAM and hopefully contains provisions for wireless internet.
I accessed burn2cd and now stuck at screen to "Please choose the iso file". They list folders: ./,../,choices,file-sharing,ftpd,my-applications,my-documents,puppy-reference,spot,startup,web-server. At the end of the choices it says "Selection: /root" and under that "*.iso". I need to choose one of the above folders. I have a CD-RW in the drive. Will the program then copy Wary .iso from RAM? I will choose multisession.
I previously downloaded Wary to HD, the files are shown, but Wary would not boot from the HD. Just because the files are shown doesn't necessary mean the OS is on the HD?
It is frequently mentioned that a Live CD will boot even if computer doesn't have a HD. I removed the HD, powered up and nothing happened other than message that no OS and CD access not available. So back to HD in place.
Playing around with Wary I found, somewhere, Operating System-System Information where it said under Kernel---Linux 18.104.22.168 (i686).
So my i386 system did take an i686 OS (Wary). Now I don't know why the others would not boot.
As to the above options for burn2cd and .iso location, I found all of the options in a window, opened each and didn't see .iso mentioned.

Other Puppies should burn and boot in the same way as the Wary one did if you download the correct .iso file. Not sure where the i386 or i686 option is coming from. I would use your Windows 7 computer for this for now if you have more blank CD's. Lucid Puppy may be worth a try as it is OK for older hardware and has Frisbee in the menu, but it doesn't have a (proper) browser when you first boot it so you will have to install one. The .iso for Lucid Plus 528-005 is here:-
Then just use your Windows Disc Image Burner as before.
While you are at it, make another fresh Wary Live CD so you can attempt to boot from it and create your save-file on the HD at first shutdown. Take your time going through the steps of that and be sure that you are saving in the right place. It may be that something happened to your first Wary CD when you tried to save your data as a multi-session CD.
Just to clarify, these are two alternative methods of achieving the same thing. Multi-session CD is original Puppy plus additional saved data all on the CD. This is option 1. I think you should not be choosing this.
Closed CD (remains always as just the original Puppy) plus additional saved data on the HD is option 2 and is the one I think you should be going for unless we discover that the HD is faulty.
In fact, Wary would be the ideal Puppy for that computer, except for the one snag that the WiFi isn't working. As I understand it this is your main stumbling block and needs to be resolved before thinking about installing to HD.
Installation to the HD when you are ready is best done by booting the Live CD as normal and running the tools Gparted and Puppy Universal Installer. You will probably also need to install Grub or Grub4dos bootloader. These steps are done from the menu. You don't download more files to the HD.
Does the laptop not have an internal WiFi facilty? I was wondering about that when you mentioned a USB wireless adapter. If so then you have 2 possible ways of getting a wireless internet connection.
Maybe try installing Frisbee in Wary. I haven't tried this, but there is a .pet which someone has posted here:-
Not sure why it didn't work when you disconnected the HD, maybe something in the BIOS, but anyway, if the HD is not faulty then really you want to keep it in and make use of it.
As you have discovered, Puppy will access all your Windows files so you can rescue anything that you lost when Windows stopped working. This is a further indication that the HD is OK

Here is another suggestion. Exprimo is an elegant Puppy with Firefox browser included and runs Frisbee out of the box. I just booted a Live CD of it on my old HP computer which has my (sometimes problematic) USB wireless adapter plugged in to it. After the initial set-up I just clicked the "Connect" desktop icon. Frisbee comes up. You have to allow a few moments but it loads up and scans and displays available wireless networks including mine. I just have to click on my signal in the list and then click on the "Create Profile for the Selected Network" button, enter my password, wait a few seconds and it connects.
On your Windows computer, download the .iso from here:-
Burn the image disc, pop it in the laptop and see if it boots. You do not need to make a multi-session CD in your situation. See if it shows any evidence of finding wireless devices or signals. At first shutdown go through the steps to create a save-file of 512 MB on the HD.

Hhm, I've found that Burniso2cd never fails to burn a good Puppy CD or DVD if I first copy the Puppy iso into /tmp, then tell Burniso2cd to use the iso from /tmp.
You can copy the Puppy iso into /tmp by first finding the iso using ROX (you do remember where you put the iso?
), then finding /tmp (if you can't find it, just ask. Puppy's filesystem is a bit daunting at first) and finally, dragging the iso from wherever it is into /tmp and selecting copy (not move).

I'm not sure that my HD is functional. Although I can access my folders I cannot access the files, pictures or other content. A window pops up basicly telling me that, but in some generic language.
I went to the site to install Frisbee, but it seemed intimidating. Install where? My CD-R? I need to check on how to do it. I recall that maybe something else may need to be installed also.
The laptop did not come with internal WiFi. Not sure at that time if any did.
I downloaded both Lucid Puppy Plus and Exprimo from the suggested sites and neither one booted. Only Wary will boot.
I have no idea as to iso location. Messed around with ROX and nothing.
As to /tmp, I went to ROX>My Documents>tmp>README-tmp.txt>A general purpose temporary folder. Couldn't find any other tmp.

Then the first thing you should do is disconnect your hard disk drive and leave it that way until you get Puppy working well from CD or USB flash drive. Then work on recovering what you can from the hard disk drive. At the least, don't try to access it any more.

Booted how? From a CD? If so, how are you burning the CDs?

When you downloaded the iso, were you in Windows?

Puppy's filesystem is a bit confusing for the beginner. The problem I had with it was that when you open ROX, you are in what's called the Root directory. I initially assumed that this was the topmost level of Puppy's directory structure, but confusingly there is a subdirectory called Root, and that's where ROX is when it first opens. Probably that directory should be called Home. That's how I think of it.
So to see the true topmost layer of Puppy's filesystem, open ROX and then click the back arrow in Rox's top left corner. Then you will see /tmp, the temporary directory, the contents of which are not saved when Puppy shuts down. This is the /tmp directory I meant. However, you can use any /tmp directory you can find, as long as you can tell Burniso2cd where it is.
The reason for copying the iso to Puppy's /tmp directory is that directory is in RAM, giving Burniso2cd fastest access to it when burning.

These 2 new Live CD's that you have burned, Lucid Plus and Exprimo, will they boot in your Windows 7 computer if you place either of them in the CD drive of that and power up?
Intalling .pet packages in Puppy is really just a case of a click or two.
You will need to be online via your ethernet connection.
The Frisbee for Wary is the one in that rectangular box at the bottom of the post by user "peebee" that I linked to. Using Wary and Seamonkey browser go there and just click the download link on the right of the rectangular box. When the dialog pops up choose "open with - petget" and then click OK. You will get a couple of other confirmation messages which you just OK as well and that is it. Frisbee should then appear in the menu. Launch it and see what happens. Maybe try unplugging the ethernet cable at this point.
Be aware though that if you do not have a working save-file, Frisbee will be gone if you power down or reboot. Are you still finding that none of your settings are saved? Each time you boot up Wary is it still the same as the first time? Really this needs to be sorted out even before thinking about wireless networking although it is worth a quick try just to see if that Frisbee does do anything.
If you have a USB flash drive you could plug that in and try to create your save-file in that, but you were saying that you don't get the "create a save-file" dialogs any more at shutdown.
One thing you could do (sounds a bit complicated but isn't really) is when you power up Wary, when you get that initial splash screen quickly hit the F2 button and you will get a help screen with flashing cursor. Type "puppy pfix=ram" (without the quotes) then press Enter and Wary will boot into RAM only mode. Then when you click Shutdown you will get the dialogs to create a save-file in the drive or partition of your choice. Try the HD or a Flash drive if you prefer.

I wrote this and was about to publish it when I saw the response from Flash just coming in, but I thought what the heck, written is written, here it is:
Hi hhm7163, don't get mad at me, but I think you do something wrong somewhere in the process. We will help you sort it out, so let us walk through the process, even if you already know the steps!
Do you know about this overview over all puppies:
One of the very few puppies on that list, that actually managed to find my wifi modem, is Puppy432.
If you go to the address for an .iso, click on it, and download it to a HD. Do check the md5sum!
Then burn it to a CD as an .iso, not copy as data or anything else. If you don't get the choice to burn an iso image, you need another burn program.
Is the bios in your old laptop set to let you boot first from a CD/DVD?
If it is, starting the laptop with the CD inserted, should load and boot it. You should see the text as the CD loads, describing where in the load/boot process it is.
You may get question about setting the resolution, the language you prefer and so on, but that is all reatively straight forward.
Do not set the resolution higher than the screen on the laptop can manage, choosing 1024x768 is relatively safe, you may change it later if possible.
If you get to the point where you get some feedback on the screen as the CD is read, you are close to booting. If it stop there, please give us feedback.
Will any of the puppy isos you already have burnt to CD, load and boot in another PC?
If you have the time to give us more detailed feedback as you go along, I am sure we can assist you in getting the old laptop will come to live again, with a puppy on board!
Good luck!

I had previously removed the HD because I had heard it was not necessary for Linux plus the BSOD activity gets in the way. Found that nothing can be done on computer without the HD. CD and USB won't work. I get black screen with brief notice that there is no OS. Apparently the CD and USB function are on the HD. If so, then the HD is OK? Doesn't act like it.
I booted Wary from a CD. How am I burning? Insert the CD and follow the choices that pop up (intuitive). It recognizes that an image is involved and clearly tells me that an image will be burned. I watch the progress and the door slides open when finished. It worked and Wary booted. Same procedure on the others, but they won't boot.
When I downloaded the iso I was in Windows 7 and I know where it is. When you previously asked me if I knew where, I thought you meant location in Wary on my laptop because you mentioned ROX. I'm confused. Copy iso from Windows 7 location to /tmp in Wary? If so, how?
I tried one (Exprimo?) in Win 7 (after changing bios to CD) and no boot.
Holding off on installing .pet packages because of probable lack of a working save-file. I question that settings are saved. Every time Wary boots it goes through long list of loading with a green "Done" popping up on each one. The only things not done are the original questions at 1st boot about choice of language, time zone, etc. Does that tell anything about functional HD? When I get your answer to that then I will decide on HD or USB for save-file. Can I use multi-session with CD-R (which I use to boot Wary)?
I won't get mad. I'm new to all of this and very confused so anything is possible. I saw Puppy432, 2 choices of iso. Either one? Check the md5sum? Huh? Something else new.
Yes, bios set. Wary boots. Others don't.
One other Puppy, as a test, did not boot in another PC. Did not try to boot Wary.
Hey guys, you have hung with me a long time on this which I much appreciate, but if you feel we should just give it up you will not hurt my feelings. There is nothing on it that needs saving and I could do without it. I just hate to throw it away if it has some use.

I think you will find that people here are happy to try to help you while ever you are interested in trying to resolve any issues with Puppy.
We are dealing with a number of unknowns and variables though, which is why I wanted to keep it methodical and not introduce suggestions of things like asking you to try burning discs on the laptop. The CD burner may be old and we don't know if that works.
Looks like something has not worked in the burn process for the Exprimo disc so I suggest you blank the entire disc (or use a fresh one) and go over the downloading and image burning process again for Exprimo (all on the Windows 7 PC - it doesn't take very long). It worked when you made the Wary disc so if you use the same method you should get an Exprimo Live CD which will boot. If you can do that it would be a fresh start with a different Puppy so we can be sure of what we are doing with the save-file and it has Frisbee on board which might help with getting the USB wireless going.
As for the Wary Live CD, the lines with the green "done" are the boot sequence. I would expect to see those every time so that is OK. If you don't get the language questions then it looks like your data is getting saved somewhere after all. Not sure where though. May be it is working as a multi-session CD or maybe you did create a save-file on the HD and didn't even realise it. Try using ROX to explore the HD and the CD to see if you can see a save-file stored on there. I have never used multi-session so not sure what the saved data looks like on the CD.
If your data is getting saved then I suggest you try installing the Frisbee .pet in Wary. It will uninstall just as easily from Puppy Package Manager with a couple of clicks if you decide later that you want to remove it.
I have to say that USB wireless adapters can be a bit hit and miss and the fact that your USB ports may be 1.1 adds a further potential problem. It does work on ethernet though and you may come across other types of USB adapters that you can try.

Hhm, the fact that a Puppy live CD you burned wouldn't boot in another computer points the finger at the burning program you're using. Don't lose that Wary CD!
Puppy can read, copy, write and delete files from the Windows partition of any hard disk drive it can see. In Wary, rest the cursor on one of the disk icons at the bottom left of Puppy's desktop for a second to see its description. If it's a Windows partition it will be NTFS. Just click on it to explore it. Puppy will only read, not modify anything unless you tell it to. Poke around a bit to familiarize yourself.

Frisbee installed. Went to Menu>Network>Frisbee connect wifi. Frisbee window opened: 2 options at top-Configure Wireless Networks and Configure Network Interfaces. The first says "Not Connected" and everything else is greyed out. The second says under Network Status>IP Info>Wireless>Wireless configuration: No wireless extensions detected.
Any suggestions?

Designer - Albums to Remember
My name is Barb Plett and I love creating! I started as a paper scrapbooker back in 1996 and switched to digital around 2008. I found myself wanting certain themes I could not find so I decided to try to figure out how to design scrapbook papers and kits. That took awhile, but here I am still learning and really enjoying the creation process. I usually design kits that can be used for both boys and girls as I have one of each.
I am blessed to be a work-from-home mom and spend my "free" time designing (mostly while the kids are at school once the chores are done). If my husband reads this he may not agree that I always wait until the chores are done. Ha,ha!
Most of my inspiration comes from photos I want to scrapbook or layout themes I want to create, but some kit ideas come from my customers or creative team suggestions. My customers are very important to me and I am always open to kit suggestions. Actually one of my favorite parts of designing are creating kits based on customer requests. If you ever have a specific theme for a kit please send me an email or post it on my Facebook Page and I will see what I can come up with. I am excited to be a part of My Memories Suite and I am looking forward to getting to know you as a customer.

Oscar tea-leaf reading doesn't get any better than at the Screen Actors Guild Awards.
When the 20th annual SAG Awards get underway Saturday night at the Shrine Auditorium in Los Angeles (broadcast live on TNT and TBS beginning at 8 p.m.), the guild's choices will be heavily scrutinized for their predictive powers about the Academy Awards.
Actors make up the largest branch of the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences, so SAG members have perhaps more sway in determining Academy Awards winners than any other group.
This year, the five nominees for SAG's top honor, outstanding performance by a movie cast, are: "12 Years a Slave," "American Hustle," "Dallas Buyers Club," "August: Osage County" and "Lee Daniels' The Butler."
Obviously, SAG and the academy don't always agree: Neither "August: Osage County" nor "The Butler" were nominated for best picture, and "The Butler" was snubbed entirely. The effects-heavy, sparsely peopled "Gravity" was predictably overlooked by SAG (except for a best actress nomination to Sandra Bullock), while it garnered 10 Oscar nods.
But the SAG Awards will give a window into support for Oscar favorites "12 Years a Slave" and "American Hustle." In individual honors, SAG favored "12 Years," nominating Chiwetel Ejiofor, Michael Fassbender and Lupita Nyong'o. Jennifer Lawrence, for supporting actress, is the lone "American Hustle" nominee.
The SAG outstanding cast awards have lined up with Oscar best-picture winners, including "Argo," "The King's Speech," "Slumdog Millionaire" and "No Country for Old Men." But SAG diverged in the past with picks like "The Help," "Inglourious Basterds" and "Little Miss Sunshine." The actors did foretell one of the biggest Oscar upsets in 2005, choosing "Crash" over "Brokeback Mountain."
But the SAG Awards also represent one of the more collegiate atmospheres of awards season, with winners almost uniformly expressing gratitude for an honor chosen by their peers. The speeches are often good, too, and can help stoke Oscar support.
Among the nominees Saturday night are Cate Blanchett ("Blue Jasmine"), Matthew McConaughey ("Dallas Buyers Club"), Forest Whitaker ("Lee Daniels' The Butler"), Meryl Streep ("August: Osage County"), Tom Hanks ("Captain Phillips"), Emma Thompson ("Saving Mr. Banks") and Bruce Dern ("Nebraska"). James Gandolfini was nominated posthumously for his supporting performance in "Enough Said."
Among SAG's TV drama ensemble contenders are HBO's "Boardwalk Empire" and "Game of Thrones," AMC's "Breaking Bad," PBS's "Downton Abbey" and Showtime's "Homeland." Comedy series ensemble nominees include NBC's "30 Rock," Netflix's "Arrested Development," CBS's "The Big Bang Theory," ABC's "Modern Family" and HBO's "Veep."
SAG's lifetime achievement award will be given Rita Moreno, the 81-year-old "West Side Story" actress whose career has spanned Broadway, television and music.

If you have been reading this blog for a while, you will know how utterly thrilled I am to be writing the following words: I have finished the Jaywalkers. This project had been on my needles for over 14 months and taunted me at every turn. But now I have subdued them into submission, and I owe it all to my trusty
Enter the size 1 Addi Turbo (40 inches--because I am a size queen). Hello sailor! Yes, this past weekend my Magic Loop and I were able to make mincemeat of the Jaywalkers . And I am delighted.
The Specs
Pattern: The Jaywalkers
Yarn: Opal Hand painted. I began this project so long ago that the person who hand painted the skein is most likely pushing up daisies. But I think the color is #20.
Needles: First they were on size 1 dpns. Two of them broke, and the manufacturer replaced them. Then I wised up and broke out the Loop. Nirvana ensued.
Notes: The socks are tight as hell, so they are destined for a friend with a dainty foot. If there is ever a next time, I'll definitely use a softer yarn like maybe Sundara or Brooklyn Handspun. The Opal Hand painted was too twine-like for my tastes.
*Before Magic Loop era. A time when knitting was dominated by frustration, sluggishness and a general lack of progress. Also referred to as the Dark Ages and the Sad period.
I am sure many of you remember my super pal Kenric. You know, the guy who knit a purse in a day after about 4 minutes of knitting instruction? Well, he's become very active in The Lifestyle. He has knit about 3 more purses. He has joined a Men's Knitting Group in San Jose. He has made friends with other local knitters and is making plans for an LYS yarn crawl. He is on Ravelry--check him out! He is making a cabled sweater. Yeah, his first sweater has cables. Alice Starmore you better watch out, sister, because I'm sure he'll be doing stranding before Labor Day.

interior designer
When do I need an interior designer?
If a homeowner is struggling to conceptualize their room design ideas, or if the ideas they do have are in need of a polish, then it's a good idea to seek professional advice. A qualified and experienced interior designer and decorator can offer a combination of creative flair, imagination, aesthetic awareness and organizational, analytical and budgeting skills that can help bring a client's hopes for their new-look home to a successful fruition.
Interior design vs. interior architecture—what is the difference?
There is some overlap between interior design and interior architecture, but essentially an interior architect has a slightly wider remit than a simple decorator. They are experts in the relationship between the way a building is laid out and how it is used by those living or working in it, and they are often concerned with large structural changes to the interiors of buildings that are being repurposed to suit modern needs. While many interior design jobs won't require their services, a homeowner may wish to enlist the help of an interior architect in a number of situations: if, for example, you are changing the function of a room rather than simply upgrading how it looks, or if you are planning a radical remodelling of your dwelling's interior – knocking down walls, changing the position of a staircase, installing an indoor swimming pool and so forth.
What does an interior designer do?
Usually, the interior designer or decorator will be involved in all aspects of the home refurbishment from beginning to end. Firstly, they will talk at length with the client to develop a full understanding of their needs, tastes, and expectations. Then they will draw up a range of sketches, plans and concept studies using computer-aided design (CAD) software and present them for the client's approval and comments. These decorator designs will take into account color schemes, lighting, and any technical issues, as well as health and safety and environmental regulations. The decorator will then proceed to project manage the renovation, coordinating with the building contractors and various trades actually undertaking the physical labor and ensuring that the work remains on schedule and on budget. It's also part of their job as a decorator to source everything from paint, fabrics, wallpaper, and flooring to furniture, art and antiques, and they might even design, commission and oversee the construction of customized, bespoke furnishings if the client so wishes.
How do I find the right interior designer in Delhi Ncr?
An interior designer can specialize in a number of different areas such as healthcare, hospitality, retail, offices and public buildings. Large interior design companies in Delhi NCR will often deal with a range of these categories, while some smaller firms and freelance designers will focus on only one or two. It's important not to be overawed by high profile credentials and instead to choose a company or individual decorator that works regularly in the field of residential design. It's also sensible to select someone who hasn't located too far away. This means that the decorator you choose will be able to visit the site on a regular basis and is likely to have good contacts in the neighborhood building trade, as well as an understanding of local conditions and regulations. In addition, look at their previous commissions and make sure their interior design ideas reflect your taste and expectations of quality. With all this to bear in mind, finding the right decorator for your home might sound like a tricky and time consuming process, but these days it couldn't be easier thanks to Marjishop– simply scroll through their online directory for a broad selection of experts offering the latest exciting, on-trend decoration ideas and interior design styles.
What do I need to look out for when choosing an interior designer in Delhi Ncr?
Clients should expect their decorator to have a degree in interior design, fine art or a similar subject, and to be registered with one or more professional bodies such as the International Interior Design Association (IIDA). They should also have an excellent track record in the kind of work the client is asking them to undertake. Beyond that, there is also going to be a question of personal chemistry. The ideal interior decorator is someone who is on the client's wavelength and understands their aesthetic, and someone it is easy for the client to talk to as various design concepts are explored, refined and tweaked.
How much will an interior designer cost in Delhi Ncr?
Hiring an interior decorator isn't cheap, but it doesn't have to be exorbitantly expensive either. As one would expect, top celebrity designers and well-established firms command a premium, but many interior designers are self-employed, and a high degree of competition can drive down the hourly rates that they charge. Taking a chance on a talented young freelance interior decorator can be a way to make a saving without compromising on quality. The price of their services will also depend upon how extensive the work to be carried out will be and how deeply they are to be involved. In addition, timing can play a part in interior designers costs – during housing booms, prices can be higher than during downturns. If you're hiring an interior decorator when business is slack, then you can expect to be in a much stronger bargaining position to strike a good deal.
How do I best prepare for the first appointment with an interior designer?
Before meeting with a designer, it's a good idea for the client to develop some preparatory thoughts about the sort of décor they would prefer – or, just as importantly, the kinds of styles they want to avoid. Visual prompts can be extremely helpful – for example, a folder of pages torn from style magazines or some images that you've saved to your phone or tablet. These can then serve as a useful starting point and help to establish some general guidelines. If the meeting is taking place in the designer's office rather than the client's home, then the client might also like to bring along some photographs of the property and the individual rooms that are to be refurbished, as well as a selection of other documentation about the home, its current state of repair, the condition of the electrics and so on. Finally, it's wise to have some red lines in your head concerning the budget and how much you're willing to pay.
What other professionals could I need for my home building project?
While the services of an interior designer or decorator should be adequate for the majority of home renovation projects, there are circumstances where homeowners might also need to consult one of the following:
Architect Delhi Ncr
If you're creating an entirely new property, making substantial additions or alterations to an existing one, or restoring and conserving a building of some age, then you might require the services of an architect. Just like an interior designer, an architect will inspect the site, drawing up plans and elevations, negotiate with contractors and keep the project on track. In addition, if needed they can also apply their design skills to the property's surrounding environment—its gardens, garage, gates, drive, boundary walls and outdoor lighting. Not every architect works on large public and commercial projects; many earn their living dealing with relatively small-scale domestic commissions, and Shopify's directory can point you towards plenty of architectural firms experienced in residential work.
Interior Architect Delhi Ncr
Although also carrying out the work of a general interior decorator, an interior architect is a person to help design a room where this involves key structural adjustments such as changing the position of doors, windows, plumbing, and electrics. Their particular expertise is in transforming interior spaces with the application of new building fabrics, features, colors, and textures. They will be well versed in computer-aided design and building information modeling (BIM) and able to draw up detailed scale plans ahead of work commencing. They will also be conversant with matters such as building codes and environmental sustainability. Before they are considered to be fully qualified, interior architects generally have a degree in the subject, as well as either an MA or several year's experiences.
Kitchen planner Delhi Ncr
Since kitchens are such a key part of the modern home, it's perhaps no surprise that many interior decorators choose to specialize in this area. A homeowner may want to bring in a kitchen planner if they are particularly keen on having a high-end bespoke kitchen, or if the interior designer they are working with has little experience of kitchen design. There are some circumstances in which you might opt for a kitchen planner rather than a general interior designer. For example, if the kitchen is going to be a focus of the house, you might want to have the kitchen designed professionally and save costs by doing the rest of the property yourself rather than with the assistance of a decorator. On the other hand, you can dispense with a kitchen planner if you choose a decorator who has lots of experience with kitchens as well as other parts of the house (an interior designer will often have two or three specialties). A kitchen planner can be expected to deal with fittings, appliances, plumbing, tiling, worktops and all other aspects of the kitchen design. Usually, kitchen planners will have a degree in interior design or a related topic but will have specialized as part of their career progression as a decorator.

The Constitution
INTERPOL's Constitution is the main legal document guiding the Organization through the decades of its existence.
The Constitution of the Organization was adopted at the 25th session of the General Assembly (June 1956, Vienna) and came into force on 13 June 1956. Prior to this, a series of less uniform statutes had served as the legal basis of the Organization since its foundation in 1923.
The Constitution outlines INTERPOL's aims and objectives – in other words, it establishes the mandate of the Organization and guides the way for effective international police cooperation.
The key elements
The Constitution is divided into 11 parts that outline the key points of the Organization's aims, activities and structure. The part of "General Provisions" represents the core foundations of the Organization, and gives it a particularly broad mandate.
The aims of the Organization are outlined in Article 2. They are, first, to ensure the widest possible cooperation between all criminal police authorities and, second, to establish and develop institutions in order to suppress ordinary law crimes. The mandate given to the Organization is thus rather general and the scope makes it possible to enlarge the Organization's ways of operating according to the needs of different times and situations.
Article 2 further specifies that the international police cooperation is to be conducted within the "spirit of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights", thus laying out the foundation for the Organization's obligation to respect fundamental rights and freedoms of individuals in the course of its actions.
This is complemented by Article 3 of the Constitution, which is sometimes referred to as "the neutrality clause". This Article states that in order to ensure the widest possible cooperation between the police authorities of its member States, it is strictly forbidden for the organization to undertake any intervention or activities of a political, military, religious or racial character.
In particular, Article 3 is most commonly used to ensure the legitimate everyday application of the Constitution.
Subsequent parts of the Constitution outline the structure of the Organization and give a definition of each body of INTERPOL and their respective roles:
- General Assembly;
- Executive Committee;
- General Secretariat;
- National Central Bureaus;
- Advisers;
- Commission for the Control of Files.
They also provide for the procedure to become a Member country of the Organization, for the budget and for relations with other organizations.
The latter parts of the Constitution regulate the application, modification and interpretation of the Constitution. A key provision is that the "application of the Constitution shall be determined by the General Assembly through the General Regulations and Appendices".
In this way, a mandate is laid out for the Organization to provide itself other rules and regulations in order to define the everyday framework for its operations. The same is also laid down by Article 8(d) of the Constitution.
Facilitating international police cooperation
In all, every action taken by the Organization must be in conformity with the Constitution which establishes the legal foundation for international police cooperation as undertaken by INTERPOL. The Constitution gives a legal personality to the Organization by giving it the right to enter into cooperation with other organizations or to decide about its own budget, and thus makes it possible to facilitate cooperation without outside interference.

It is time to straighten out some things about our county commissioners. We all know what has transpired at their meetings this year.
Letters have condemned all of the commissioners, but there are things some county residents might not know about Commissioners Dale Pinkerton and Bill McCarrier.
We have done business with Pinkerton, and through mutual friends have become acquainted with Dale and his wife, Millie.
It seems as though a lot of people don't know what Dale Pinkerton and Bill McCarrier have done for this county.
For instance, Pinkerton started the Butler Rotary Turkey Roundup, which has helped thousands of people through the food banks; helped start the Butler Emergency Relief Initiative (BERI), which helps people in need with their utilities; is a member of the committee that brought Big Brothers/Big Sisters to this county; and is "Pinky" the Clown at Golden Tornado Scholarship Night.
And, I have personally seen Pinkerton up early in the morning shoveling snow for senior citizens before going to work at the government center.
We don't know McCarrier as well, but we know he has been chairman for United Way and been on the board of the Salvation Army. He also has served as president of the fire chiefs association and president of community development.
What I've mentioned represents only a partial list of what these two men have done. They care.
We sincerely hope Pinkerton and McCarrier will continue their good work and be able to ignore the impediment that has been put in their way.

Month 36: Happy Third Birthday!
Happy Birthday Baby Girl!
Our birthday theme was Pirates (read daily doses here)! This will be the last year I pick her party theme and we are going to give her a small allowance of fifty cents a week (she likes coin operated rides).
Three years. How can it be? I feel like I've documented and made note of every moment, treasured it, and squeezed it and yet I feel like I'm barely hanging on to the tail of a time comet.
Itty Bitty is leaving her toddlerhood behind and moving towards childhood — what most USA parents call pre-school age. There are still glimpses of baby now and then in a Big Cry or sleepy plea for Mah-mees (nursing). We nurse every night before bed and it saddened me that I had to all but eliminate daytime nursing to rare occasions because of latch pain and the feelings of aversion unless I am engorged. I hope Itty Bitty remembers the comfort and not the sad denials.
Itty Bitty has had no potty incidences this month, she requires no toilet insert or step stool, and most of the time she cleans herself and asks for assistance for a messy output. She's used the little potty in an "Peemergency" once or twice, but looks quite ridiculous with her knees practically hitting her chin. Public toilets still require help as the toilets are set up quite high and are occasionally of questionable cleanliness. Itty Bitty also likes to cue her brother, though most often he gets too excited in her presence and won't finish a pee!
There's been a renewed resurgence in learning songs, role play with My Lttle Pony, interest in friends by name, and she loves her new play kitchen. We've spent more time on counting and numbers, crafts, reading, and art. Itty Bitty took time to learn her new age and work her fingers to make three (American folks don't use the thumb to indicate three). She also knows her last name, address, her parents' names, and her birth date (we add new personal info as she commits the others to memory). Itty Bitty still has trouble with personal boundaries, not understanding why others do not accept hugs or why others dislike physical play. We've also seen the growing territorial behavior with communal toys and disinterest in taking turns, but at the same time a slowly growing trend of cooperative play rather that "you do it this way not that way" play. Itty Bitty isalso learning that baby brother has a voice and is not afraid to scream and cry if she takes a toy away from him and "trades" don't always appease.
When her brother was born in February, Itty Bitty suddenly sprouted a halo of hair and she looks so toddler-like in those pictures, but now she has lankier limbs and her face has changed. At the beginning of summer Itty Bitty was a half inch or inch short of reaching tricycle pedals, and now at the end of the season she is just the right size. We haven't tried her on the Radio Flyer Big Wheel yet, but she still might be a hair too short. We tend to buy her things older than recommended age, but you never know what they can do unless the opportunity is there.
Did I mention Itty Bitty's non-stop conversational chatter and the repetition of phrases? Did I mention Itty Bitty's non-stop conversational chatter and the repetition of phrases? Did I mention Itty Bitty's non-stop conversational chatter and the repetition of phrases? Did I mention Itty Bitty's non-stop conversational chatter and the repetition of phrases?
Oh and making unnecessary noise when I or her brother are trying to nap!
Happy Birthday Itty Bitty. May your adventurous, inquisitive, sociable, determined, odd-bird personality mature and thrive. When you are grown with your own Itty Bitty I hope you embrace her every mismatched ensemble, backwards shoe, inside out shirt, dirt smeared face, puzzle cookie offering, and cold nose, sticky lipped kiss. And may her 30lb self step on your toe every day.
Phrases of the Month:
I love my brudder. (I love my brother.)
The baby crying, give him you moolk. (The baby is crying, give him your milk!)
Is it my birthday?
But he likes it {baby peeking out of the square storage ottoman}, Momma, I pud him innit.

Africa Ledge
This area is below and just left of Arrow Final (facing the mountain) . From the Tea Cave, walk back a short way along the path toward India Venster and you will find the buttress on the left.
Matador 25
Start just left of Crank and Pull. Climb the easy crack to the break. Using an undercling in the roof crank onto the steep face and slightly left to a rail. Continue up a steep layback to a wide rail and then fight straight up over the narrow roof onto the smooth face above.
FA: Richard Halsey, 16/02/2012
Local Legend 24
A hard and bouldery route that is serious to lead. It is named in honour of local legend David Davies.
The route is found on Africa Ledge, Table Mountain, and cuts through the zig-zags of Atlantic Crag. A couple of metres to the right of the Oddshouter's Outing tea cave is the Ruminating Crag chimney. Immediately beyond the chimney is a pillar with an ugly brown crack and wall to its right. Local Legend commences a couple of metres further right in the centre of the white wall. Africa Link-Up starts in the same place and goes off to the right.
Pitch 1 30m 19:
Step off the large sloping block onto the centre of the left-facing wall. Ascend the face in the centre (tricky lead). At 15m reach a ledge then directly above ascend the right-facing wall finishing up its left edge to reach Upper Africa Ledge. Cross the ledge and scramble up 3m to stance on a big ledge one level below the overhanging white wall.
Pitch 2 12m 24:
Scramble up on the right to get to the overhanging recess. At this point the Atlantic Crag fourth pitch crack is 3m to the right. To the left is a massive undercut white wall. Ascend the recess trending rightwards, making use of the highest wired nut protection available. Turn the overhanging wall and with difficulty ascend the easier angled rock face above your last protection (crux). Head directly up easy ground to stance on the large ledge. This pitch is a serious lead.
Pitch 3 12m 22:
The face to the right is wildly undercut to start. Step up onto the microwave oven-sized block and clip the old piton. This pitch is an aid pitch on Little Jack Horner and the peg was placed in 1980. Stretch up to reach an edge with the left hand and a flat prong with the right. Crank hard to get up and ascend the difficult face towards the right. On easy ground head up and left and then right to a big ledge. This pitch is a serious lead.
Pitch 4 12m 18:
Head up broken ground to arrive at the big overhang above to the right of the hanging block. Rail out left on the block and then head up a crack to the ledge above. Walk rightwards to the end of the ledge.
Pitch 5 12m 20:
From the stance traverse to the right with hands at the level of the overhang to a bottomless recess. Pull into this recess. So far this is the famous crux of the classic Atlantic Crag. Now rail out wildly to the right to the dark and forbidding bottomless recess. Ascend this for 5m to a ledge. Continue up the steep wall ahead for another 4m to another blocky ledge and stance at the big detached flake.
To abseil off the Africa Corner bolted anchors scramble up easy ground to the left for 25m. To finish at the cableway station scramble up to the right.
First ascent:
Hilton Davies, Neels Havenga and Andy Davies on 26 January 2011.
Flaky Dog 21
Despite the lichen that plasters the second pitch of the climb, this route has the potential to become a classic if it is "climbed into condition". It is a moderate 2 pitch route that involves classic sustained TM climbing on steep rock, with excellent protection.
Start: The route starts just to the right of the Africa Gullet crack on the upper Africa ledge.
Pitch 1 25m 21:
Climb the face just to the right of Gullet's crack to a cruxy section. (One can cheat by straddling across Gullet's crack). Pass this to a good rail. Rail right to steep juggy rock that leads you to a stance. Belay off the abseil bolts.
Pitch 2 30m 21:
Climb the "staggered crack" that diagonals up to the left to a grassy stance. Don't stop here but rail easily left above Odd Shouters crux and then up to a stance. Continue wandering easily to the top back to the abseil anchors.
First ascent: C Edelstein February 2007
Mad Dog 22
"Mad Dog" is a direct variation of the Africa Lunch second pitch. It is easier as it avoids the pumpy lie back at the top of Lunch but has its moments particularly for the "on-sight" lead.
Mad Dog 30m 22:
30m 22: Climb the overhanging lie back crack of the start of the second pitch of Africa Lunch. At the second peg continue straight up past the next rail to where Africa lunch moves right. Continue straight up using some mentally challenging flakes into the easy groove that leads directly to the fixed peg and nut abseil point.
First Ascent 16 February 2007: Charles Edelstein and Robert Breyer.
Prowling 26
A long, steep prow near the last pitches of Right Face and clearly visible from Tafelberg Rd near the Platteklip Gorge parking.
Access: From the upper cable station, walk towards Platteklip Gorge, passing two viewing areas with railings. Continue past the next lookout with a stone wall to the following lookout. From here scramble down to the top of the Africa Ampitheatre cliffs, and walk right (East) for about 50m on a ledge until you get to a drop-off above a gulley. There is an abseil point in situ overlooking the gulley, and a 40m abseil brings you to a ledge (abseiling directly above the prow will leave you hanging in space). Bring some screwgates and two 120cm slings to extend the anchor over edge so rope pulls easily. Walk about 10m back in the direction of the cable station to the base of the route.
Route: 40m. Start under a short vertical crack and move up to a hand rail. Traverse a few meters left until you can pull up to a platform and walk left to below the prow. Use the crack and sidepulls to gain a good rail. Pull up about 1m to a horizontal slot (medium cam), where you move left across the arete, and continue up on the left to the next ledge. Step right and ascend up and slightly right to a good sidepull in the steep, grey scoop. Some hard moves straight up lead to a thin rail below a small roof. Use a sloper above the roof to move left and strenuously up to good holds. Up easily to the left of the diving board (wobbles). Finish out right over the void using a good rail and side pulls.
Consensus grading needed.

Infidelity is excruciating. Never in my dreams did I imagine how excruciating. Like most women, I had talked about what I'd do if I found out my husband cheated. My friends and I, when we heard of someone having an affair, would inevitably say to each other, "Well, if my husband ever did that, I'd show him the door so fast..." We imagined we'd wipe our hands of the scumbag, throw his stuff on the front lawn and be done with it. At no point did I imagine years of therapy, anti-depressants, and a stack of books on my bedside table that covered everything from forgiveness to sex addiction.
Life has a way of messing with my plans.
I've learned, however, that though I clearly couldn't control what choices my husband had made (oh, if I could have!!) I could learn to control myself. I say learn to control myself because I'd never really thought of it that way before. I'd always operated from the "I am what I am" school of thought. That my responses to life were the result of some personality lottery, and I received a rather impetuous, emotional, mercurial one. So when I knocked a television off a table to indicate just how angry I was with my husband well...how could I control that? I was fiery.
Over the years following discovery of my husband's cheating, I began to recognize just what I could control (actions). And what I couldn't (feelings). By controlling actions I can so often better manage feelings. I can keep them from galloping away, and taking me with them. The goal, of course, isn't to turn into some sort of automaton whose feelings are experienced with precision and control. It's to get to a place of healthy healing, where you can feel all your emotions – joy, pain, fear, excitement – without acting in ways that aren't consistent with your values.
Unfortunately when we're in such emotional pain we can lose sight of what we can and cannot control. The part of our brain that performs the so-called executive functions has been hijacked by the part of our brain that focuses on pure survival, our reptilian brain. And by survival, I'm not referring to scrapping it out with our five-year-old over the last piece of pizza because we're starving...but rather emotional survival, a craving to understand just exactly what the threat is that we're dealing with so that we can be prepared for it. It's a rational impulse. But our ways of achieving it can be irrational. Julie Gottman calls at least some of our behaviour PTSD and had this to say in a New York Times story about deception: "When secrets emerge ... the partner suffers profoundly. Post-traumatic stress disorder is the result — being battered by unwanted intrusive thoughts about the betrayal, nightmares, emotional numbing coupled with unpredictable explosions, sleep disturbances and hyper-vigilance as the partner or spouse searches for yet some other betrayal."
Consider these five ways we hurt ourselves in the name of "survival".
Pain shopping (or asking the same questions over and over and over and...): Most of us, when we finally get proof (or an admission) of cheating from our spouses are flooded with questions. How did this happen? When? Where did they meet? What did they do? Did he meet her friends? Did other people know? What does she look like? Where does she work? Does she wear high heels? Is she vegetarian? and on and on and on, until our poor brains simply can't absorb the volume of information and our spouses can't even keep track of the details.
The need to know is crucial and valid. For too long, we've been outside the door of the affair with no awareness of what's going on behind it. In order for a marriage to heal (or you to heal on your own), it really does help to open the door and have the chance to take a look around. But – and it's a big but – at a certain point you have all the information you really need. The rest is pain shopping.
Maintaining toxic friendships: Infidelity brings up a lot of issues for a lot of people. There are those who will suggest you "get over" this, those who dismiss your angst with impatience that you don't just kick him out, those who avoid you because your experience brings up uncomfortable feels about their own marriage. It's tempting to keep everyone close because you're feeling so alone. But toxic people simply make your pain and loneliness worse. You need compassion and understanding, not blame, frustration, impatience or unsolicited advice.

SAULT STE. MARIE — His television specials and series have been the highest rated programming in Comedy Central history and his DVD sales have reached seven million units. His videos have received a half a billion views on You Tube, and his live concerts have become mega-events played in front of sold-out arenas worldwide.
Jeff Dunham, "The most popular comedian in the United States" according to Time Magazine, is making a stop in the Upper Peninsula at Kewadin Casinos DreamMakers Theater on August 1.
Dunham has, of course, plenty of help on-stage: his entourage of signature characters who are there to challenge and chastise his every sentence. There's Walter, the grumpy retiree; the beer-swilling, NASCAR-loving and resolutely red neck Bubba J; the furry and manic Peanut; José Jalapeño, the spicy pepper from South of the border; the bumbling skeletal Achmed the Dead Terrorist; the almost as dead long-lost son of Achmed, AJ; and Peanut's own ventriloquist dummy: Little Jeff. They may have all been conceived and hand crafted by Dunham, but his characters, who are anything but dummies, have now taken on a life of their own, each with their own legion of fans.
Dunham's most recent stand-up special, "Minding the Monsters," a monster/horror-themed stand-up special, has achieved record breaking records upon its premiere on Comedy Central on October 7 (DVD release on October 9) debuting to 5 million viewers (7.5 million for the night), making it the most watched special of the year for Comedy Central.
Dunham has performed at Kewadin twice in the casino's 27-year history, both times to a sell out crowd. For more information, visit www.kewadin.com.
Tickets to this live show go on sale Friday, April 26 at 8 a.m. Shows will take place at 7 p.m. and 9:30 p.m. Ticket can be purchased at the box office, at Kewadin.com or on the casino's Facebook page.

Some people ask us why don't we certify our stones in house? Very simply, we don't believe you can be truly subjective of material you offer for sale. In our opinion, a certification and/or appraisal really only will carry meaning if two conditions are met.
1. The appraiser and/or certifying organization is well known and independent from the seller and
2. That the appraiser and/or certifying organization has the credentials and history to back their findings.
Certificates are nice, but credible ones are much nicer, that's why we normally choose one of the following organizations for our certifications. Their credibility, history, and reliability are unmatched.
1. GIA GTL (Gemological Institute of America Gem Trade Laboratory)-GIA Gem Trade Laboratory's sole affiliation is with the Gemological Institute of America (GIA), the world's largest and most respected nonprofit educational and research organization serving the gem and jewelry industry.
2. AGTA GTC (American Gem Trade Association Gem Testing Center)-The AGTA GTC is the natural colored gemstone industry's premier independent laboratory providing the industry and the public with a complete range of services, including gemstone identification, origin determination and pearl identification. The laboratory is equipped with the latest, technologically advanced, investigative equipment.
3. EGL USA (European Gemological Laboratory)-For over 25 years it has offered the fine jewelry trade and consumers accurate, reliable gemstone identification and professional certification to validate their gemstone purchases.
A certification is a document issued by a Gemological Laboratory describing a loose gem stone, it indicates the physical of the stone at the time of evaluation. A certification is not an appraisal.
An appraisal indicates the dollar Value of the piece under consideration in current market conditions. Obviously, the Dollar Value can easily change considerably over a relatively short period of time. Appraisals are most often used for insurance purposes.
Many people make the mistake of using an in-house appraiser to evaluate the purchase price of their stone. This is a big mistake. Firstly, appraisals are often over-estimated, and are therefore a very poor estimation of price. More importantly, any in-house Jeweler could be biased.
The bottom line is whether it be an appraisal or a certification to make sure the evaluator does not have a vested interest in the outcome of the the stone they are evaluating, if they do the odds are the evaluation will be biased and have little to no value.

HILLSDALE � Stan Clingerman, engineer-manager with the Hillsdale Road Commission, updated the road commission board Thursday morning about the culvert replacement project on Long Lake Road in Reading Township.
Clingerman said his crews haven�t run into any problems with the project.
The new culvert was put in place Wednesday and work to reconstruct the road will continue today. Crews will also begin replacing a second culvert in the same location which acts as a secondary runoff.
The replacement of the second culvert will extend the road closure on Long Lake Road until June 20.
Clingerman said both culverts were scheduled to be replaced as part of the project. The road is closed between Rustic Drive and Lakeside Drive. A marked detour is in place using Bankers Road, M-49 and Card Road.
The culvert work is part of the road commission's summer repair schedule. After July 4 crews will begin work on three culverts on Montgomery Road in Cambria Township.
Michigan Paving & Materials is set to begin work on Knowles, Sterling and Moscow roads from North Adams to U.S. 12 in July. Crews will be placing a 1-inch thick, ultrathin overlay on the road.
Road commission crews began paver patching work in Litchfield Township this week.
Clingerman said his crews have been doing a lot of drainage work on the county�s roads. Crews have replaced 31 cross culverts and cleared several ditches.
Seasonal mowing crews have also been working, keeping weeds and grass down along the primary and gravel roads. With all of the primaries done, work began on the gravel roads this week.
�There has been a lot of work accomplished so far,� Clingerman said.
During the meeting the board also approved bids for gravel resurfacing of five miles of road. Those roads include McLain Road and Wade Road in Litchfield Township, Burt Road in Ransom Township and Mosherville Road in Scipio Township.
On a recommendation from Sen. Bruce Caswell�s office the board decided on a road project for potential funding if money became available from the state later this year. The board decided on East Bacon Road from Peterson Road to Waldron Road. The 9-mile stretch of road would cost around $1.2 million to do a 2-inch overlay project on.
Clingerman said the road is one of the main arteries into the city from the east.
The next Road Commission meeting will be at 10 a.m. June 27.
Culvert work continues on Long Lake Road

I'm back from Colorado now. Back at sea level where the air has oxygen in it. That's nice. I didn't learn until my last day there that newcomers should take Asprin regularly to dialate their capilaries and get more oxygen into their systems. I guess I shoulda read up on it before going.
While I was there Kyle Larson gave ma a copy of a book called I Am a Strange Loop by Douglas Hofstadter. He's the guy who wrote Godel, Escher, Bach: An Eternal Golden Braid, which I never read. I'm just starting on I Am a Strange Loop but it's pretty interesting so far. Hofstadter thinks that the self is just a strange loop of energy within the brain that has no intrinsic reality. Something Buddhists have been saying for 25 centuries. It's good to see a Western scientist (or is he a philosopher?) saying the same thing. I'll let you know how it turns out.
Related to that I was hanging out with Kyle's wife Jessica and their 2 year old daughter Sophia (who is also called Chuck). Jessica mentioned that she could see Sophia gradually developing a sense of a separate self. She said that it seemed that her daughter was just beginning to get the idea that, for example, her mom was an independent being and that she herself was too.
I remember Nishijima saying that by doing Zazen "we come back to our childhood." It's true. As your practice deepens you can begin to recall the view of the world you had before you developed this idea of a separate individual self. Normally we think that the ideas we had as little children were mistaken and that the adult idea is a truer representation of reality. But I don't agree at all.
Big thanks to Waylon Lewis and the staff at Elephant magazine for their kind hospitality and to the folks at Denver's channel 7 news who had me on their daytime news show. If only LA was that hip. Thanks to Kim Corbin at New World Library for arranging that, too.
Anyway, all day Zazen retreat today so I gotta go.
I'll be in Japan from Sept. 19-28 if anyone's looking for me.

|Tiger Cub Rank
Tiger Cub Rank Badge
The Tiger Scout program is for boys who have completed Kindergarten (or are age 7). After earning the Bobcat badge, a boy may earn the Tiger Cub badge by completing 15 achievements involving simple physical and mental skills.
Each month Tiger Cubs generally have at least two den meetings, a pack meeting, and a "Go See It" den meeting outing. The program section of the Tiger Cub den meeting is usually divided into three parts, corresponding to the Tiger Cub motto:
- Share. Each boy shares something that he's done since the last meeting.
- Search. Leaders and Den Chiefs will discuss the next Go See It outing. This activity could fulfill one of the achievement requirements or one of the elective requirements, or it could relate to the monthly theme.
- Discover. During Discover time, the den leader may introduce the monthly theme and talk about what the den will be doing for the pack meeting. Then the boys will play games, have activities, take part in outdoor activities, or work on advancement requirements.
The new Tiger Cub first learns the Cub Scout promise, the Cub Scout sign, and the Cub Scout salute. He is then awarded his Tiger Cub immediate recognition emblem. This is a tiger paw with four strands for beads that he wears on the right pocket.
As a boy completes each part of the Tiger Cub achievements, he will be awarded either an orange (den activities), white (family activities), or black ("Go See It") bead. When the boy has earned five beads of each color, he is eligible to receive his Tiger Cub badge. The Tiger Cub badge is presented to the adult partner at the next pack meeting. In an impressive ceremony, the adult partner in turn presents the badge to the boy.
Tiger Cubs can complete Tiger Cub Electives and Belt Loops and Pins at any time. The Tiger Scout uniform has six parts.

History of the Tiger Cub program
In 1982, Tiger Cubs was started as a "Pack-associated" program with Tiger Cubs being 7 years old. They wore special orange T-shirts with iron-on "badges". Beginning in 1996, when a Tiger Cub graduated to the Pack, he was presented with a "Tiger Cub BSA" strip that would be worn just below the right pocket of the blue uniform shirt:Image:TigerCubsBSApatch.jpg When the grade-based rank system was phased in in 1986, the age for beginning Tiger Cubs was lowered to First grade. In 2001, the current diamond-shaped Tiger Cub rank badge was introduced. At this time, the Tiger Cub Den was fully integrated into the pack; Tiger Cubs now wear the blue Cub Scout shirt.

Art technological and casting specific research
(October 2010 – September 2012)
The first phase will aim to gain a comprehensive understanding of the works in question based on art technology and the condition of the sculptures. Lots of the information is eye-catching, some others aren't. Some exhibit a more or less sound white surface – the plaster having never been used to create a mould for casting. These should therefore be treated as unique works. Other works have been painted and then used in the casting process, while yet others have a yellowish or brownish colour resulting from a layer of shellac that was applied as a release agent prior to casting. A few items have been sawn into pieces due to their size, so that the casting procedure could be carried out section by section. Other details have to be detected first and then interpreted.
But why do these objects ask for such an extensive research on art technology? The plaster works to be examined originate directly from Giacometti's studio in Paris. Giacometti continued to work on them after they had been completed, using casts to isolate different phases of the creation process – or he left the plaster sculptures in their original form. The works therefore carry traces that are invaluable. These traces may yield information regarding the casting sequence, which can be crucial for the classification and thus the valuation of certain works.
Rashly implemented restoration measures could result in such information being irretrievably lost. Tool marks or pencil markings, for example, could be original and therefore worthy of preservation. Consequently, it is imperative that comprehensive assessment and analysis work is undertaken before any possible restoration measures are taken.
In cooperation with other institutes, mainly the Fondation Alberto et Annette Giacometti in Paris, the results of the project will be compared and made available in a relevant context. If feasible, the insights gained will be compiled for publication, and thus will become accessible to a wider public.
All collected data will be archived in a FileMaker database created only for this purpose. This will allow a reliable analysis and interpretation of all comprised results.
Research and documentation of the sculptures will be carried out by a team in the Kunsthaus Zurich. An advisory board, consisting of specialists in the field of art history, conservation, casting and plaster, will be assisting the core team.
Special analysis procedures such as material analysis, 3-D scans, or x-ray tomography have to be carried out by external specialists.
These methods allow, amongst other things, comparative statements regarding dimensions, material or "inner life"(such as metal or wood armouring) and will hopefully reveal suprising findings.
Decision making: Conservation measurements
The results of phase one of the project will serve as the basis for a discussion on the type of conservation or restoration work that has to be undertaken. It is at this stage that decisions will have to be made on how far restoration/conservation procedures are taken. Should brown residue of a shellac coating be left as it is, documenting as it does part of the sculpture's history? Are we allowed to reduce such residue, or remove it entirely? Should or must missing elements of sculptures be replaced, and if so to what extent? And should works that have been sawn into sections be respected as they are, or is it permissible to 'reunite' the pieces?
