Films at the Frist: Drugstore Cowboy – 7pm
Gus Van Sant has received critical acclaim for his ability to capture the stark and frequently bizarre realities of individuals who are often stereotyped or overlooked. With a vivid eye for the complexity of seemingly simple people and situations, Van Sant is one of the most conspicuous in a line of filmmakers who have been influenced by Eggleston's aesthetic. In Drugstore Cowboy, his first commercial success, Van Sant provides a nuanced look at the harsh, cyclical, and strangely evocative world of prescription drug addicts. This film is being shown as part of the "Strangeness of the Ordinary" film series that celebrates directors who were influenced by the photography of William Eggleston.

Petersen shares Bafana experience
Posted: 28 March 2018 Time: 12:46
Ajax Cape Town goalkeeper Brandon Petersen enjoyed training with experienced goalkeepers Itumeleng Khune and Darren Keet in the Bafana Bafana squad.
Petersen was included in the senior national squad for the Four Nations tournament in Zambia, though he did not get to feature. Keet played in the victory over Angola, while Khune kept a clean sheet in the final against Zambia.
The 23-year-old is back in Cape Town with the Urban Warriors, who are now focused on fighting relegation with just six matches to go in the Absa Premiership.
"It was good for me, it was a good experience and just for me to be part of the team was a major thing because it was my first time actually on camp with the guys, training with the guys. It was a great experience," he told the Ajax website.
"Training with experienced goalkeepers like Itumeleng Khune, Darren Keet and goalkeeper coach Andre Arendse [was good]. It is good to have been in a different environment, away from Ikamva and obviously you can learn a lot from them and Stuart Baxter who is a good coach."
"In all it was really good, especially seeing former teammates like 'Tyson' [Thulani Hlatshwayo] and Keagan Dolly. It was nice being on the same team as them again."
Petersen is determined to help the Urban Warriors finish the season on a high.
"Well, for me, it is always focusing on the job at hand, you get picked for your National Team for how you perform at club level," Petersen added. "I need to remain focused on getting the team in a safer position and if you put in the hard work, performances and effort it [call-ups] will continue to come.
"For me, it is now the third time we find ourselves in this position and it is never easy because at the end of the day the whole environment is different because naturally you panic.
"I think it is important that we remain calm and focused. We have a good enough squad to come out this position and I think the hard work and preparation we have put in over the past few weeks will help us a lot. We are ready for the fight ahead," Petersen concluded.

Are you questioning should your youngster has ADHD? attention deficit disorder, or ADHD can be a issue for dad and mom of kids who could discover that their child cannot sit nevertheless for lengthy, forgets their research at school, or will get a be aware residence from their instructor about their lack to hear and participate in school. Youngsters do not usually need to sit nevertheless in class as a way to not be classified as ADHD. So how will you understand in case your youngster actually does have ADHD?
Attention Deficit Hyperactivity Disorder in children just isn't so straightforward to diagnose occasionally because it is normally introduced to the focus of mothers and fathers by others, including neighbors, medical practitioners, or lecturers. ADHD typically seems early in childhood and might make it challenging for any youngster to control responses. They might not have comprehensive control on their movement or their speech or the two.

There is a skinny line amongst regular little one conduct and ADHD so this is simply not a thing that's easy to acknowledge but having a doctors assist you to can determine which 1 that you are seeking at. Not all kids who are suffering from ADHD are hyperactive and uncontrollable. Some kids seem inattentive, energetic but not over-active, or they might even seem as though they are not quite inspired. The most frequent symptom is they can not focus on some thing should they be not enthusiastic about it. If it's repetitive they could not remain with it. Youngsters with ADHD cannot sit nonetheless, keep peaceful, or pay focus. When in school or day care they may look as if they may be acting out purposely when they really will not be.
There are a few standard attributes to glimpse for in ADHD in children.
* Inattentive – however they do not act out impulsively and they're not hyperactive
* Inattentive – hyperactive and impulsive

Living After Midnight: Hard and Heavy Stories / Edited by David T. Wilbanks and Craig Clarke
Acid Grave Press / November 2010
Reviewed by: Martel Sardina
"Which do you love more: Heavy metal music or horror fiction?" is a question this reviewer would have a hard time answering. Any longtime fan of both art forms knows that the two are, have been, and will continue to be wonderfully intertwined. A common theme found in many metal songs and many horror stories is that of chaos. From war (an external and obvious form of chaos) to love to alienation to the degradation into madness (the internal battle waged in the mind), many of the works in both forms are filled with imagery that plays on that theme.
The stories in Living After Midnight are filled with manifestations of chaos. In "Spooky Tooth" by Randy Chandler, the chaos is more of the internal kind. Dakota Joe Cadillac, a Hunter S. Thompson-esque rock journalist, gets more than he bargained for when he finally gets the opportunity to interview Caleb Dogberry, the "(were)wolf at Metal's door." Chandler captures the characters' voices perfectly. Having read this piece several times now, it gets better each time. The words flow with a poetic grace that I hope to capture someday in writing of my own.
Next up is "Iron Maiden" by Matthew Fryer. Set near a pub on the Thames River, Fryer captures the eeriness of London as Dom stands outside, smoking a joint, his calming pre-gig ritual. Dom hears a voice calling his name. He's stunned to see a ghost ship – appropriately, the Iron Maiden – materializing in the fog. Is he smart enough to resist the siren's call?
Steven Shrewsbury's "Black Sabbath" offers a different take on the chaos that ensues after a zombie apocalypse. In this world, zombies are not immune to the effects of rot and decay, leaving survivors to fear something far worse than the undead. Nothing conveys the pain and sorrow of this piece better than its closing line, "God will understand."
"Judas Priest" by David T. Wilbanks invokes a little black magic to bring the chaos in his tale to life. What good is protection from earthly harm if its cost is torment in another plane of existence? Kent Gowran's "Motorhead" is the story of a heist gone wrong. And finally, L.L. Soares brings the anthology to a close with "Slayer." This story is probably the most extreme in terms of violence and sexual content. Abercrombie has pledged his life to Saint Rainer. Leon, lead singer of the 80s band Honey Load, is being pressured by his former bandmates to capitalize on the resurgence of metal music and get the band back together. When the two meet, whose interests will be served?
While filled with action, these three latter stories lacked the emotional connection their predecessors possessed. This reviewer felt less vested in what happened to the characters over time. In Soares' piece, in particular, that lack of emotional connection was felt the most. When a character dies, the impact of that loss needs to be shown; otherwise, the violence and gore are just for show.
In the introduction, Wilbanks explains that the anthology was born after asking several author friends if they would be interested in writing a story with the name of their favorite metal band as the title and the chosen band's musical vibe as the loose inspiration. For this reviewer, "Spooky Tooth" was the clear winner in that challenge. However, fans of metal music and horror fiction can expect to find something else to love in the virtual pages of this book, if they don't agree.

Hi everyone,
Thanks for the advice. I have reworked my patterns to increase the complexity, and to try and hide the repeat. The new scale is much better, I'm, sure it is an improvement.
I feel like I could tweak my patterns forever!
PHASE 4 Update
Patterns are coming together, I realise now that next time I will work on my illustrations differently. I think my scans were not good enough, I kind of missed the draw over them with clean black lines step, and live trace (which I used for some of the drawings) was not the best option for the end product I was aiming toward. I am happy with how the patterns have turned out, but can see lots of room for improvement! I guess that is the idea of learning something new. I am going to have a go at creating coordinating patterns anyway and try to learn the whole process.
Thanks for the great opportunity Bonnie and congrats classmates on some stunning patterns.
Hi Everyone,
I am loving seeing everyones patterns come together, so inspiring. I have been illustrating my motifs, the more complicated drawings take forever! My style seems to have a very wobbly and hand drawn effect! I'm OK with how they are going. So far I have just added random colour from my palettes, this will be refined as I continue. I have inserted them under the original mood boards below.
Hi Bonnie and Classmates,
My name is Sally. I am a graphic designer, artist, teacher and aspiring pattern designer! I live in the bush near the beach north of Sydney, Australia.
I have decided to create patterns with the themes: Bush Birds, High Tea and Summer Sails.

Windows are open, the cool air is blowing through the gauze curtains and I sit and inhale. A calm washes over me as I hear raindrops pattering against the earth. Oh, how I've missed those cool, rainy days where windows can stay wide open and I can enjoy the smells and sounds.
I've been working on a painting and scratchboard lately, as well as numerous photos just begging to be sorted through. Painting is so so close to being done, but I will not unveil yet until the finishing touches are complete. But.. I may just show a sneak preview because I am so excited about how this piece is coming out. Not my usual style, but the way this has transformed before my eyes, it might as well become a standard integration in my paintings. As for my scratchings, well, that is still way under wraps for now.
I am having a meeting tomorrow with the owner of Harmony Vineyards to view their gallery space and to discuss with the owner, David Acker, which photographs of mine they would like displayed in their space. They are a new local winery opening sometime in the next month, and it is my pleasure to share that my photographs will be displayed for their opening! I am very excited to be able to showcase my work alongside wonderful wines in a truly amazing tasting setting. More news on the opening and information will follow as I get them.
So, it may be raining, but let it rain. The creative juices are flowing to earth's melody.

Multi-Criteria Group Decision Making (MCGDM) aims to find a unique agreement from a number of decision makers/users by evaluating the uncertainty in judgments. In this paper, we present a General Type-2 Fuzzy Logic based approach for MCGDM (GFLMCGDM). The proposed system aims to handle the high levels of uncertainties which exist due to the varying Decision Makers' (DMs) judgments and the vagueness of the appraisal. In order to find the optimal parameters of the general type-2 fuzzy sets, we employed the Big Bang-Big Crunch (BB-BC) optimization. The aggregation operation in the proposed method aggregates the various DMs opinions which allow handling the disagreements of DMs' opinions into a unique approval. We present results from an application for the selection of reading lighting level in an intelligent environment. We carried out various experiments in the intelligent apartment (iSpace) located at the University of Essex. We found that the proposed GFL-MCGDM effectively handle the uncertainties between the various decision makers which resulted in producing outputs which better agreed with the users' decision compared to type 1 and interval type 2 fuzzy based systems.

text: Good Carbs, Bad Carbs: Who's to Blame? 16. June 2014 Mecala Fitzpatrick EZDOCTOR.com (0) Confusion about Carbohydrates – Change Your Diet, Change Your BodyBy Brooke HuberYes, Carbohydrates are energy producing nutrients, but too much of a good thing can be bad! It is important to understand the difference between good carbs and bad carbs.Good carbohydrates include high fiber foods containing an abundant amount of vitamins and minerals to maintain an even supply of energy. Good Carbohydrates Examples: whole grains, beans, fruit and vegetables. Bad carbs come from white bread, white rice, pastry, sugary sodas and other highly processed foods, which can lead to obesity. If you eat a lot of these bad carbs they will increase your risk for disease.When you intake carbohydrates, your pancreas releases insulin, this hormone enables you to digest starches and sugars. The more sucrose you have (table sugar) the higher your insulin level becomes. When exercising, the first thing your body burns off BEFORE the fat, is insulin. So the more carbs you have in your body, the longer it takes to lose that weight. If you really want to be healthier and shed off those pounds quickly, cut out the bad carbohydrates and try replacing them for good carbohydrates and protein. The difference you will see in your weight loss is night and day. If you're not in taking as many bad carbs, then there is less insulin in your body and you will begin to immediately burn off the fat. Here, use this diagram to help you better understand.Notice the layer of carbohydrates (insulin) in the body above. When you intake carbohydrates, a layer of insulin formulates around the fat like you see in the picture. While many people will exercise and believe they are burning this fat, many have not even reached that stage. Many people will also leave the gym and have a high carb meal without being aware. This leaves your workout merely pointless. Replacing those bad carbs for good carbs and protein will keep that layer of insulin thin. Thus, making your goal to lose weight achievable and your risk for diseases much lower by obtaining a healthy balance in your diet.

Artist's description:
This beautiful Mandala (meaning circle in Sanskrit) was inspired by the Scottish glens in late Summer, when the heather is just coming into bloom, the water is teal blue and the grass is olive green - it is raining, which softens everything. A soft relaxing image to contemplate far away places.
Title: Celtic Passion
This is the CANVAS version of this print it is also available on PAPER or Chromoluxe.
Made by photographing near the shore on the far side of the Isle of Skye in late Summer. A mist of warm rain was falling making everything quiet and peaceful. The mandala was created by layering several of the images over one another then picking out the colours and lines that felt they belonged in the picture. This is a painstaking process a bit like painting.
For these special, small editions of my work I use Canson® Infinity Museum ProCanvas. This fabulous 100% cotton canvas has been designed "for professionals producing true Fine Art that require precision images with a very high resolution". By combining this fabulous canvas with the wonderful, non-fade, Epson Ultrachrome K3 with Vivid Magenta inkset of 9 colours, I can produce a canvas of exceptional quality which will last a lifetime without fading. I have a professional 44 inch ink printer so can produce prints of very large size.
I am very particular about printing! Unlike many photographers, I print all my own work so that I remain in control of the art from concept to delivery. If you have any questions please get in touch for a chat.

|This article is a history page
This article contains early or scrapped production information about Legendary Pictures's Pacific Rim, and is intended to work as a history book on the film's development progress.
Acid Geisha is the name of a scrapped Jaeger from the Pacific Rim draft script.[1]
Acid Geisha is the name of an omitted Jaeger featured in the draft script of Pacific Rim. Neither the Jaeger or the Kaiju it fights prior to the events of the script's story are ever described in any detail by Travis Beacham.[1] The name "Acid Geisha" was criticized for playing into the media sexualized misconceptions about the role of Geishas in Japan's society as entertainers.[2][3]
Acid Geisha establishes Mako Mori's career as a pilot in original story for Pacific Rim. Mako Mori and an omitted character named Aki Seto were the pilots of Acid Geisha. The Jaeger fought against an unnamed Kaiju and was destroyed in the process of killing the creature, claiming the life of the Aki Seto character after Mako was ejected from the mech.[1]

Amazing how quickly the time goes! So how am I feeling? Fantastic.
The one thing I can say about this challenge was I found it quite easy as I was in a great place mentally. Yes there were small hiccups along the way & two blow-outs, but the things that I have learnt from this challenge are:-
* I can achieve anything I set out too
* fructose is evil
* the body dosen't know how to process fructose
* fruit is still my friend - just not a lot of high fructose ones all the time
* healthy fats are my friend
* there will always be haters, don't spend your time explaining anything to them
* i don't miss anything really except dark chocolate & I wont lose sleep over having some from time to time & I am loving experimenting making my own sugar free treats
* I am on this no sugar caper indefnitely
* I probably eat sugar (fructose) free 95-98% of the time apart from fruit/breads etc
My two blow-outs were a delicious chocolate mousse cake that was so rich & full of cream - it was ok on my tummy, no real sugar high's or lows thanks to the full cream content. The two sparkle cupcakes on the other hand made me very sick, nautious, shakes, cramps & a hungover feeling the next day. That is enough for me to know it is bad, bad, bad!!
I love fresh tasty foods & processed sugary foods I don't care for or miss. Bring on the next 59, 60, 70 days with low to no fructose!!
The official #50 days sugar free finishes on 20 August (started 1 July) you can start anytime!! Check out these two fabulous people who have & will continue to inspire me & motivate me:
Sarah Wilson
Nat Carter - New Outlook Fitness & 50 Days no sugar
Over and out.

I've always loved London, but when the dollar was weak against a strong pound, the $6 cups of coffee and $50 hotel breakfasts made a visit staggeringly expensive. Now, however, with the weaker pound and a worldwide competition for tourists, the city has never been so appealing and so affordable. And in this case, affordable doesn't mean budget travel; it simply means luxury and value at prices that don't leave you gasping.
Airlines–particularly British Airways and Virgin Atlantic—and tour operators are offering attractive packages. Top hotels are also attractively priced. The London Marriott Grosvenor Square, which has a choice location that's convenient to Hyde Park, Oxford Circus, and Park Lane, is offering a one-night stay in a deluxe room and tickets to Buckingham Palace starting at $160, double occupany (through September 30th). For the same period, there's also a weekend package that includes overnight accommodations and what has been described as the best hotel breakfast at Maze, Gordon Ramsey's Michelin-starred restaurant; it starts at $277. For more information check www.TheLondonMarriott.com.
At the InterContinental Park Lane, accommodations are superior and service is impeccable. The pampering on the Executive floor (with views overlooking Buckingham Palace) is non-stop, with complimentary breakfast, newspapers, drinks, snacks all day, cocktail hour and more. Guests who stay in one of the 60 suites enjoy 24-hour butler service and a drive in an Aston Martin. In addition to a full-service Elemis spa and a fully-equipped fitness center, the hotel has an award-winning restaurant, Theo Randall, run by the star chef of the same name. Check www.ichotelsgroup.com for various packages.
The Berkeley in Knightsbridge Sunday night special starts at $324, through December 2009. The rooms here feel like Old Money and the marble bathrooms are fitted with such niceties as towel warmers. There's a gorgeous rooftop pool, a fitness center and a spa. The Marcus Wareing restaurant is one of the city's top gastronomic destinations. For more information, see www.the-berkeley.co.uk
London's restaurants, like those in New York, are offering specials galore, and now it's possible to dine like Henry VIII at reasonable prices. At Toptable.com, there are deals and discounts that start at about $24 for three-course meals with cocktails. At the Michelin-starred L'Atelier de Joel Robuchon, two courses from a fixed-price menu are about $27. Tea at Kensington Palace can be had for under $20.
A London visit wouldn't be complete without at least one theater outing. The Tkts booth in Leicester Square (like the booth in Times Square) has discount tickets for many top shows, such as Avenue Q, Chicago, and the Lion King.
And for visitors who love to shop, London is sure to delight. The iconic Harrods carries from culinary delicacies to toys to precious jewels. At the other end of the shopping spectrum is the flea market at the Portobello Road in Notting Hill. Burlington Arcade, which dates back to the 19th century, is packed with luxury shops. Fans of such BBC shows as Dr. Who and Little Britain can pick up fun souvenirs at the BBC shop in Marylebone.
If your plans include seeing London's major attractions, pick up "The Essential London Kit" for just $103. It includes a three-day London Travel Card, one London Eye ticket, one Tower of London Ticket, and one Original London Sightseeing bus tour ticket (which also includes a Thames River cruise and two walking tours). The kit comes with a London Planner guidebook; it can be purchased online at www.visitbritain.com/onlineshop.
For getting around, London's famed taxis provide the most comfortable (and expensive) way to travel the city. But the quickest and most economical way is London's excellent public transportation system using the Visitor Oyster Card (much like New York's MetroCard). It's valid on buses, the Underground (subway), and some National Rail services in London. Save time by purchasing before you travel at www.visitbritain.com/onlineshop.
And finally, for museum lovers, there's very good news. The British government supports the arts so heavily that entry to the most famous museums and galleries is free. So you can see the collections at London's Tate Modern or the Elgin Marbles at the British Museum without reaching for your wallet. The Tate is to London what MoMA is to New York; it's the UK's leading modern art collection. The National Gallery houses collections of Western European art dating back to the thirteenth century, and the British Museum, like New York's Metropolitan Museum, is one of the world's great cultural institutions; among its treasures is the Rosetta Stone.

Itchy Rash, Scalp, Neck, Back, Arms And Under Belly For Several Months. 2 Rounds Of Steroids No Help
Asked by trudonna
Itchy Rash, Scalp, Neck, Back, Arms And Under Belly For Several Months. 2 Rounds Of Steroids No Help
I am 63 years old and retired and moved to Oregon Coast recently. Florence, Or to be exact. Ever since I arrived I began to itch - middle back, noticed felt like rash - then after about a month noticed very itchy scalp and rash. It has spread down my neck, to my whole back, both arms and under belly fat. It itches so much I am sure I am scaring. I take 2-3 hot showers a day for the immediate and short term relief from the itching. I went to walk-in clinic (no insurance) twice. First they gave me an oral steroid, then a shot and there was little to no difference. None of the anthystimin (?sp.) have worked at all, or VERY short lived.
I fasted and washed and triple rinsed all bedding, even treated for dust mites. I am an artist and expose myself to lots of things but NEVER, ever had this reaction to anything in all my life and for the life of me can not figure out what it is. In my whole life I have never had a rash that I can remember, other than a heat rash or two and when lived in the tropics as a child eczema.
I am beginning to think that it is internal - and wondering if at such a late stage in life one can develop sever onset of allergies to things that have always been staples with no reaction? i.e. nuts, cinnamon....If it were environmental, I think that I would have seen some change as I tried to address most of that. I do live above several lakes, in the woods and walk a lot but...HELP!!!
I have always had easy to tan not burn skin. Mosquitos not a problem. Not sensitive skin and no known food or other allergies.
Hello there
First of all wanted you to know that I am not a doctor and so the information given here cannot replace the medical advice from your doctor.
You know...sometimes changing where we live can produce allergies we never had before. I am wondering for you if adult eczema may be a possibility. The hot showers are not going to be good for such a thing and make it worse. Use lukewarm water and go to your drugstore for an oatmeal bath solution.
If this is eczema you will have to find out what your triggers are. Does stress, for example, make things worse?
If you are able do find a dermatologist as this type of doctor is going to best be able to figure out what this is and treat it.
I know this must be maddening for you...it is terribly to itch and not know the cause.
Please let us know if you figure out the cause. And thank you for your question.

We should always keep in mind that Meat is high source of saturated fat, which can block the activity of EPA and DHA which produces prostaglandin and controls the activity of your hormones. As meat is difficult to digest and contains little amount of fiber, usually it might get into the colon partial digested and thus this condition benefits the bad bacteria and allows them to control the colon and create constipation and some kind of colon inflammation. Bad Bacteria starts decaying the undigested meat and other food which we have consumed and builds toxic substance in the colon, this condition should be avoided to prevent Acne. You should have fecal matter in the colon to move regularly and out the rectum, or else toxic matter will build up and will spread up in blood stream.

Overview of PACOS
Programs and Courses Outcomes System (PACOS) is a free, open source web-based system. It was created by Prof. Rossiter at the Hong Kong University of Science and Technology (HKUST) to be used by a University as a centralized web system for people to create, access and edit the program information, course information and the relationship between them. Although it was developed based on the need of HKUST, with some minor changes (mainly concerning the user authentication) it should work in any institution.
After it is set up, users log in to the system using their institution login details. Depending on the power level given to the user, they can then add/delete/edit courses and the corresponding course information, and can add/delete/edit program outcomes. A summary matrix showing the mapping of courses to program outcomes is shown, and, if desired, the user can download an Excel format file containing the mapping data, get an email sent to them with a copy of the matrix in HTML form, or generate a configurable graph summarising the information.
Every user has an assigned power level. In a typical installation of an institution with 40 programs, the majority of users (possibly instructors) have power level 2 (can view everything and edit course information), perhaps only 20 users (possibly the program director) have power level 3 (can edit program information as well as course information), and a few person is administrator (has the power to do anything, including adding/deleting user accounts).

In the second one only the water coming from the water fountain is moving while everything, even his formerly swaying earbuds, are still. I had no reason for this choice of subject if I'm being honest. I simply created them from the objects and people around, showing how easy it can be with just a camera and everyday objects. A for the meaning it would reflect how some days at school the day goes by so slow its like it takes and hour to take a drink of water, or reading a book of economics in computer class. The most difficult thing I found was getting them to work on the blog. It took a lot of resizing and alteration to make it work. If I were to give anyone advice I would say persistence is key. Your first one may not be the greatest but keep at it and you should pull through. Also listen to the steps carefully and don't be afraid to improvise should something come up.

This part of Terry Kinney Online will host the articles and newsworthy items I find on TK. They'll be updated as I find 'em. Have fun! And email me if there's an issue. --Sam Lopez, WebJefa
From the Step website: A discussion with Philip Seymour Hoffman: Our Lady of 121st Street discussion with TK and PSH from the Steppenwolf archives
DEC 2005- Terry Kinney returns to Steppenwolf (after directing The Violet Hour there last season) for the 30th season to direct a play. He is interviewed about it in the newest issue of Backstage, the Steppenwolf in-house mag. Check out the Steppenwolf website for details and to buy tickets.
MAY 5, 2004: A note from the Hollywood Reporter:"Terry Kinney has joined the cast of CBS' upcoming CSI: New York in a recurring role, says The Hollywood Reporter. He will play a district attorney in the show, which will be introduced in an episode of CSI: Miami this month. "New York" reunites Kinney with series star Gary Sinise; the two co-founded, along with Jeff Perry, the Steppenwolf Theater Co. in 1975 and served as artistic co-directors." GS will head the new CSI spinoff--we wonder if Billy Petersen from CSI original recipe will be cool with this one! (I'm kidding...I ADORE WP and CSI!)
WOOHOO!! Congratulations to TK and wife Kathryn Erbe on the arrival Oct 2003 of Carson Lincoln Kinney, the couple's second child. All seem to be doing just fine! KE is back on Law & Order CI, and TK just penned a phone interview with Philip Seymour Hoffman for Steppenwolf's "Backstage" magazine (added 2-5-04, thanks Andrea B!)
Terry Kinney is in Chicago now to direct The Violet Hour for Steppenwolf's Mainstage-- it premieres this week and continues through June. See www.steppenwolf.org for prices and dates. (added 4/26/03)
TK's directorial feature debut, "Found in the Streets", is still in flux-- I have no idea where it's at or what is going to happen with it, but he's been associated with it for over a year now. I do believe it's done filming... when I know more you'll know too. (addded 4/26/03)
OZ ended a six-year run Feb 23 of this year. I'm SURE it will all be on DVD soon. (added 4/26/03)
As you all probably know, Oz is back on HBO (started Jan 5th) for an eight episode final season. Glad it's back, sorry it's gonna be gone! (added 1/13/03)
***IF YOU HAVEN'T DONE SO, CHECK OUT THE TK SLIDE SHOW ON MAIN PAGE (WITH MUSIC, EVEN!).*** (added 9-20-02)
*** Terry Kinney and Kurt Elling made a magnificent duo in "Petty Delusions and Grand Obsessions", marking not only your webslinger's first Steppenwolf attendance, but Mr. Kinney's return to the stage after a six year hiatus after "Buried Child" left him with stage trauma... I'll be posting a review and more info about the stage fright as soon as I get settled into my new job in Chicagoland. (added 7-30-02)
**Look for a review of the Steppenwolf "The Grapes of Wrath", which I just saw at the main Chicago Public Library on video, coming soon! Terry Kinney plays Jim Casy, the preacher turned visionary/activist. (Added 7-30-02)
**Terry Kinney, Christopher Meloni, and other "Oz" cast members past and present were at the NYC Tower Records "Oz" first season DVD release party and signing on March 22, 2002. (Added 4-1-02)

**Terry Kinney will star in HBO's "The Laramie Project", premiering March 9. (added 2-11-02) Here's a pic of the project follow up with cast and crew involved in this important event:
(Brief note added 3-26-02-- I thought the movie was very interesting, very intriguing, though perhaps not what people might have been expecting. There's not a lot on the Shepard family, but a lot on the residents of Laramie, WY. TK's part as Matthew Shepard's father was brief but he has a very powerful courtroom moment. SL)
**Steppenwolf has announced its 2002-2003 season-- Terry Kinney will direct Richard Greenberg's "The Violet Hour": "The most daunting task for John, an ambitious young publisher at the beginning of the 20th century, is choosing between publishing the work of a friend and the work of a lover. But suddenly, a mysterious machine appears and begins to spout unsettling news about the future. Unhappy with what destiny has dished out, John scrambles to make good and recreate the fate of his friends. This new work is a comic fantasy about fate,ambition, and loyalty." (added 2-11-02, Steppenwolf site)
**Terry Kinney directed the February 3, 2002 episode of "Oz". (added 2-11-02)
TERRY KINNEY'S BIRTHDAY IS JANUARY 29th. HAPPY BIRTHDAY!
from Step website-- link to this is on the left:
2003-2004, Volume 3 "Our Lady of 121st Street" – Discussion between Terry Kinney and Philip Seymour Hoffman.
Terry Kinney and Philip Seymour Hoffman were on different coasts, on their respective cell phones, in the middle of their busy days. The street noise on Terry's end in New York was intense, sirens, car horns. In his Los Angeles hotel room, Phil wasn't feeling well, talking quietly and intensely. Yet these two artists, both acclaimed director/actors, both leading members of their ensemble companies got together at Backstage's request, to talk about playwright Stephen Adly Guirgis, working within an ensemble, and the principles of great acting.
Terry Kinney: The LAByrinth Theatre has an ongoing relationship with Stephen Adly Guirgis, right?
Philip Seymour Hoffman: We do. I joined the LAByrinth Theatre about eight years ago, when it had already been around for a couple of years. At that time, the company was basically a bunch of actors, and we wanted to start producing original material. Obviously, that created the need for a playwright, and a few of these actors started writing. And Stephen was one of them. That was really significant for the company, because we started choosing works based on whether writers were creating roles for our actors, and out of that came a consensus, amongst the company, of what we find to be exciting theater. Stephen is definitely a writer who is writing great roles for actors.
TK: We've been fortunate when our ensemble members have created work for our company. A great example is when Frank Galati created his adaptation of Grapes of Wrath for us. When Frank was brought into the company, we were starved for a director/actor who could also write his own material. It's a great thing when writers have the sensitivity to write well for a specific group of actors, which comes out of working together over an extended period of time. I think that's something we could do much more often, frankly.
PSH: Well, we've actually started to attract writers into the company since that early time, writers like John Patrick Shanley (author of Danny and the Deep Blue Sea and Moonstruck). His last three plays were written for members of the LAByrinth company. That's something we're trying to encourage now, expanding that reach of our ensemble. But I've always thought that there was a similarity between LAByrinth and Steppenwolf. Growing up, and later on, in college, we all looked towards Steppenwolf as a model company. A lot of young actors look towards people like you, Gary Sinise, John Malkovich and all the actors that were coming out of your company as being some of the best in the business. Steppenwolf always had a very distinct voice that originated from the actors. A very powerful, very new, and very alive voice in the American theater, and that is something that LAByrinth strives for as well. Just like you guys in the early days, these actors aren't well known people, they're not celebrities. They're really coming out of the fabric of New York City. You really see something exciting with the actors coming out of LAByrinth, like you see with Steppenwolf actors.
TK: That's one of the things I admire so much about your company, that you're leading with your actors. It's the actor's event. The designers, the director, even the writer, are all there to make a place for great acting. If you start with acting, then everything else falls into place. I think that your company's success has come out of having such a strong writer like Stephen to tailor these roles for your actors. They're able to play to their strengths, and stretch themselves at the same time. It's obvious the kind of creative spark he gets from writing for the company, specifically for an ensemble of actors.
PSH: It really is exciting, isn't it, to watch your fellow company members, who were kind of green when they were just starting out as actors, and to watch them, over the period of a decade as they've grown into powerhouses. They've grown into really fine actors. For myself, I learned so much from these people, I grew up a lot in the company and became a better actor. You're all a family, you all kind of watch out for each other and push each other and that is the greatest part of the whole experience. It's the same for the playwrights and the directors in the company, but it did start with the acting ensemble.
TK: I couldn't have said it better. What kept driving us forward at Steppenwolf was the space between the actors. None of us ever created a character on our own and then just showed it to everybody. That's the ensemble experience, pushing each others' buttons, throwing each other something different and unexpected. Your fellow actors define your work as an actor as much as you define it yourself. That is very exciting — to trust people to know you, to bring out the best in you, and to take you farther than you went last time.
PSH: Absolutely, acting is a very scary thing. Especially if you're working on a play by somebody like Sam Shepard, where you should just check yourself into a hospital when you're done. When you're dealing with any playwright who is challenging in a visceral way, an ensemble makes it possible to do that kind of courageous work. The ensemble pushes each other, because people feel safer about actually taking those emotional risks. You think, it will be okay to walk out on stage and do this type of work, there's someone there with me.
TK: Right, it softens the landing. When you head into the dark without the flashlight, you're there with people that you trust. It's a bit of comfort on that difficult journey.

***TK directed "Agony and the Agony" at Vineyard Theater in NY. Friday, December 8, 2006; Posted: 2:19 PM - by BWW News Desk
Nicky Silver's play The Agony and the Agony begins performances December 8, 2006 at the Vineyard Theatre (108 East 15th Street). Directed by Terry Kinney, the play has a cast that features the playwright himself, joined by Victoria Clark, winner of the Tony Award for The Light in the Piazza, and Cheyenne Jackson, who starred on Broadway in the musical All Shook Up.
Scheduled through December 22nd, the show is presented at the Vineyard as one of the theatre's Lab Productions -- new works that are fully rehearsed and staged, with limited production values, and not open to the press for review.
While tickets to Lab Productions are regularly available only to Vineyard Theatre members, The Vineyard has announced that beginning December 9, a limited number of seats for $25 will be released for sale to the general public two hours prior performances, subject to availability. Phone sales will not be accepted for rush seating. If a performance is sold out, a wait list for the $25 seats will begin 2 hours prior to curtain.
In The Agony and the Agony, Clark plays an ambitious actress married to a desperate playwright, played by Silver, while Jackson plays an aspiring young actor whose arrival mixes things up even more. Terry Kinney, who directed Silver's Beautiful Child at The Vineyard, will direct.
The cast also includes Michael Esper, Harry van Gorkum and Marilyn Torres.
The play marks the first stage appearance in New York for Clark since her triumph in the role of Margaret Johnson in the Craig Lucas-Adam Guettel musical The Light in the Piazza at Lincoln Center, a performance that earned her the 2005 Tony, Drama Desk and Outer Critics Circle awards for Best Actress in a Musical.
In addition to his acclaimed starring role in All Shook Up, Jackson recently appeared as real-life hero Mark Bingham in the 9-11 film, "United 93."
Mr. Silver's work has been seen in New York predominantly at The Vineyard, which has premiered such works as the playwright's Pterodactyls, Raised in Captivity and The Maiden's Prayer.

The ubiquitous Terry Kinney
With his staging of One Flew Over the Cuckoo's Nest playing on Broadway, a leading role on the HBO series Oz and roles in several recent films including Young Girl and the Monsoon Terry Kinney looks like the latest King of All Media.
"Maybe I'm in all media," Kinney said from his home in Brooklyn, N.Y., "but I'm a blue-collar guy in every arena. I just tend to do things that cult audiences watch." A founding member of Chicago's Steppenwolf theater company - he's directing his old Steppenwolf cohort Gary Sinise in Cuckoo Kinney has mainly been employed in movies in supporting roles. But The Young Girl gives him a solid leading role, as a divorced New York photojournalist who can't bring himself to tell his 13-year-old daughter (Ellen Muth) about his 26-year-old girlfriend (Mili Avital).
"We did it on a very small budget and a few locations around New York," Kinney said. "It was such a hard shoot. I had a broken foot the entire time, it was hot and really uncomfortable and everybody screamed at each other all the time. But we really liked the material a lot."
Kinney also played an emotionally distant divorced dad in the recent box-office hit Save the Last Dance, which he describes as "a kids' movie."
"But it didn't start off that way," he added. "Most of the story was about a teenage girl adjusting to living with her father. Most of the dark qualities about where he lives and how he lived had to be cut out because MTV bought the movie."

Latest trip was yet another blinder with the boys scoring high on all fields, they got kingi's to 36kg, bass to 55kg and a good stripey just to top it off. they deserved every fish they caught as some days the weather was shocking to say the least. This season has to be one of the best fish wise but the worst weather wise, never have we had to put up with week after week of bad weather to the point of this week canceled out as yet another storm looms down on us, we feel for the group that made there way across the ditch this week only to be told no way could we sail, well guy's the fish will be bigger next year just part of the game we play. Cheers Lance
Hi all the three kings rock big time. Man we live in a great place, were in the world can you catch monster kingi's in the morning, massive bass in the afternoon and big striped marlin in the evening, the three kings thats were. Latest trip was another blinder with the boys nailing monsters in every aspect of the trip,kingi's are red hot at the moment with most in the high 20's and many in the 30's, bass are prowling the king bank and attacking anything in there way, the boys fished for puka only 3 hours on a five day trip to fill the needs of a feed for the folks back home. marlin fishing is good if you put in the time but they are not in large numbers yet and i say yet watch this space. The weather has been just shocking and looks likely to be that way for awhile yet something we are getting used to. Til next week cheers Lance

The Hassles of Hair Removal
Many women find the task of constant hair removal to be a serious hassle. They often have to spend a lot of time every week shaving, waxing and plucking hair from their legs, arms and beyond. If you're a woman who is sick and tired of constantly having to get rid of persistent hair from your body, then permanent hair removal may just be right up your alley. Thankfully, many aesthetic clinics offer these treatments to patients.
Permanent Hair Removal on the Body
If you no longer want to worry about body hair, permanent hair removal treatments may make an effective plan for you. These treatments can do away with pesky hair located on the legs, face, back, upper arms, forearms, private region and underarms. They can even get rid of hair located on the lower and upper lips. If you're self-conscious because you feel that the hair surrounding your lips is noticeable, permanent hair removal may be able to rid you of that worry forever.
Permanent Hair Removal Details
Permanent hair removal treatments typically involve the use of IPL (intense pulsed light) or lasers. These treatments employ strong light wavelengths that zero in on hair follicles to get rid of hair. Patients who want to make the best of these hair removal treatments should generally schedule several treatment sessions. Otherwise, the treatments may not be able to rid all of the unwanted hair effectively. The need for multiple appointments is generally based on factors such as the color and thickness of a patient's locks. People typically require between 4 and 6 sessions spaced apart between 4 and 8 weeks. Consult your doctor to get a rough estimate of how many sessions you may need.
Choosing a Specific Permanent Hair Removal Treatment
If you're having a hard time figuring out which form of permanent hair removal to choose, don't worry. An experienced professional can help you make that decision by assessing your hair type. If you have dark hair combined with fair skin, then IPL treatment may be a great path for you, for example. If you have sensitive skin that's prone to persistent stubble, then various kinds of laser treatments may be preferable for you.
Respected Aesthetic Clinics and Hair Removal
If you're looking for permanent laser hair removal in Singapore, you're in luck. A large number of respected aesthetics clinics all around the country offer permanent hair removal procedures. Many of these clinics have years and years of experience performing these procedures, as well. Ask your doctor for the name of a trusted Singapore clinic that offers hair removal treatments.
You can also consider talking to other people you know who have previously had good experiences getting hair removal treatments at aesthetic clinics in your area. If a friend, family member or coworker gives you a recommendation, call the clinic as soon as possible to set up an appointment for an in-depth consultation. Once you have a consultation, you'll probably know whether or not the clinic is a good choice for you.

Top 10 Alternative Jobs and Odd Jobs
Whatever Happened to Having a Job?
These days it's not easy to hold onto a job, let alone find a job that pays well and is recession-proof. I'm the kind of gal who refuses to do a job that I don't feel I'm being properly compensated for. This has lead me to a lot of "poor days" and a lot of interesting jobs. I'm calling them odd jobs and that means two things. Some of these are just going to be random jobs that you pick up here and there and some of them are actually going to be odd. Nothing too out of left field, but maybe a few jobs you'll find to be a bit out of the norm.
I hope this article gets a chuckle or two, and also helps a few people who are looking for ways to earn extra cash while the economy gets itself moving again. A lot of these jobs I found on sites such as craigslist.org or for the UK gumtree.org, but a few I found looking at flyers and job boards and a few just word of mouth. There are people willing to pay for other people to do nearly anything, even things you would never dream of paying someone to do. Without further ado, I'll get started.
Top 10 Alternative Jobs and Odd Jobs
- Give blood. Yes, you can get paid for your blood and it is totally legal. I have been blessed as a universal carrier and have given blood many a time. On occasion I take compensation from it but only when needed. It's a great way to give to the community and get paid at the same time. Giving blood takes virtually no talent, no time, and no commitment (except while the needle is in your arm). The best part about it, aside from the cash, is it usually comes with a free snack. Orange juice and a cookie, my favorite past time.
- Adsense. If you're reading this you probably know exactly what I mean. Internet odd jobs can be very profitable. All you need is some time and some patience and you'll start to see some dough rolling in right before your eyes. I got started to earn some extra cash and I'm hoping to turn it into a full time gig by this time next year. A lot of people are trying their hands at it and only few succeed. Let's hope I'm one, and you too!
- Making walls. I studied art at university and became quite good at carpentry. If you live in a city, small or big, you definitely have a nice handful of art galleries. Galleries are constantly putting up shows and taking down shows and a lot of that putting up and taking down means a lot of carpentry work. Most galleries have temporary walls which need to be shifted for every new show (artists are picky). I let it be known that I'm around to help. Generally I'm rewarded handsomely, plus I get to see the art for free, on occasion meet the artist (!) and it usually comes with a free meal. Drop by some galleries and let them know you're available and you have time.
- Giving people advice. Growing up in NYC I noticed as a very young girl how willing people are to give away a dollar here and a dollar there. The panhandlers on the train always made a pretty profit in a matter of minutes. While I was still in my 20s, on Sundays during peak travel times a friend and I would sit in the park with an advice box. "Cheap Advice" it would say. Surprisingly, we each would make about $30 an hour listening to people and talking. It was mostly tourists who were probably thinking "Gee, New York is so quirky" but that didn't bother us. As long as our advice box was full by the time we left, we were happy.
- Wingwomen. This is a fairly new phenomenon that has become rather big in the big apple. Wingwomen are basically wingmen, except that they're women. Apparently men find it easier to meet women when they are at a party with a woman. They say that when a woman sees a man with another woman, she figures "Hey, there must be something about him". Basically it's a wingwomen's job to accompany a man to a party and help him meet other women. You get paid very nicely for this job, and you get to go to parties and meet people. At first when I started this I was a little iffy on the whole thing, but you end up barely spending any time with the man who you're working for. Instead, you strike up conversations with other women saying things such as "Where did you get that amazing dress?" or "What are you drinking, that looks good". It turned out to be a fun job through which I actually found other jobs.
- Monitoring the internet. A few years back there was a competition on MTV.com that had people posting videos and profiles and trying out to be Paris Hilton's new best friend. My job was to make sure nobody posted pornography on the site. It was kind of fun at first, and got boring really quickly. Though, you can do it while watching a film from your living room and get paid at the same time.
- Being a model for a performance piece. Living in NYC comes with its many perks. There are many artists who need live models, occasionally just to sit and read. You can find these jobs by looking on craigslist, asking around at galleries, and just by keeping your ears open. Most of the time you get to meet interesting people, which makes it worth it. Plus who doesn't want to be part of a NYC live installation piece?!
- Doing errands. Especially around holidays people have a lot to do.Walk the dogs, pick up the groceries, pick up the kids, stand on line at starbucks, etc. People can always use an extra hand. Sometimes doing favors that take just 10 minutes will get you paid $10.
- Buying sunglasses and reselling them. For some reason people on Ebay wil pay a lot for sunglasses. For a few months I would buy Ray Ban sunglasses from Asia in bulk, and resell them on ebay for nearly three times what I had paid for them. It could sometimes be time consuming and sometimes Ebay can be a hassle, but for the most part it made me some nice cash.
- Medical studies. I know what you're thinking - who participates in those things!? The truth is they pay amazing money and generally it only takes up a day or two of your time. The least I ever made was $400 for trying a new face wash everyday for a month, the most I ever made was $10,000 for sleeping at a clinic and spending my days there for three days and nights while they tested my cognitive abilities. Probably the worst three days of my life but well worth $10,000 which is probably what I would have made in two months of working "real jobs".
Anyhoo, that's all for now. I hope you found this list entertaining and informative. I also hope you're able to see the potential in doing nearly anything. Making money can be fun, rewarding, bizarre, or boring. Odd jobs and alternative jobs are the way to go.
I never heard of Wingwomen! That sounds interesting. I am also looking to make some extra money this year, so I'll give some of your suggestions a try. I used to "donate" plasma in college, but now I don't live near a donation center anymore.
Sorry to disappoint anyone but you do not get paid to donate blood! I do it all the time and that is not a paid gig. Here's a better idea that will actually put some cash in your pockets but might require a bit of effort: Sperm donations from men and egg donors for the ladies out there. Those two things will actually bring in some money. Good luck!
Do you have any resources for the medical studies? This was really helpful.
I way I earn extra cash is by using this site http://www.cashcrate.com/2445794
Nice hub and i bet there are many more odd jobs out there
I would have never thought of some of these ideas! Very creative.

Jack scowled, and tapped his finger against the side of the tank. Had it moved? Maybe it was asleep -- The corpse was dislodged from the weeds tethering it in place after a particularly hard thud on the glass and drifted upward, taking his hopes with it.
Belly-up, it floated, dead beyond all hope of resuscitation, although even in his guilty panic Jack didn't quite contemplate mouth-to-mouth.
Sam walked in, her gaze travelling between tank and mourner.
"Sir? Again?"
"Yes, Carter. Again. All dead. Why does he do this to me? Why leave me in charge of the damn things?"
"He trusts you?"
"No, he doesn't!" O'Neill rolled his eyes. "Thought you were the smart one. I catch 'em, Carter; I eat them. I don't coddle them and spend hours watching them swim around and around and around..."
"I pissed him off again, didn't I?"
An unholy light shone in Jack's eyes as he reached for the phone book and started flipping pages. Fish weren't under 'F'. How crazy was that? "And this time, I'm going to be the one laughing. Where's that place he gets them from? The one with the stuffed shark's head in the window?"
"Sir, I'm not sure he - I mean, Daniel likes those fish. He wouldn't sacrifice them just to make you feel inadequate and guilty."
Jack gave her an incredulous stare. "How long have you known him? It's exactly what he'd do!"
Carter shook her head firmly and he pouted and caved. "Still going to let him come back from P4Y-378 to a tankful of living, flapping, swimming their hearts out fish. Fish that haven't pined and died. Fish that have partied and made little fishies for Granddad Daniel to cootchy-coo over."
"Yes, sir," Carter said dutifully in the voice she kept for his more whimsically charming moments.
Daniel was delayed on P4Y-378 by the discovery of an inner chamber to the tomb, the walls scrawled over, dense with information.
The fin-count hit a record high.

MADRID, Jan 27 (Reuters) - Cristiano Ronaldo scored two penalties as stumbling Liga champions Real Madrid hit back from their miserable start to 2018 with a rousing 4-1 win at Valencia on Saturday to move within two points of recapturing third place in La Liga.
Ronaldo sent goalkeeper Neto the wrong way to slot in his 100th penalty for club and country in the 16th minute after the Portuguese was felled in the box following a lightning quick breakaway from a Valencia corner.
He made no mistake again from the spot in the 38th after Karim Benzema had been pushed over in the area by defender Martin Montoya, stretching Madrid's lead and moving on to eight goals in the league this season, including four penalties.
Valencia pulled themselves back into contention in the 58th minute when Santi Mina headed home from a corner while Real goalkeeper Keylor Navas denied Dani Parejo an equaliser with an impressive save with his foot.
Real had gone into the game on the back of being dumped out of the King's Cup by Leganes in midweek and were missing captain Sergio Ramos and midfielder Isco through injury but produced a gritty display, defending well and striking with intent on the counter-attack.
Brazilian left back Marcelo made sure of the points with a thumping first-time left-foot strike in the 84th minute and Toni Kroos added the fourth, capping a second win in five league games for Madrid and their first away league victory since beating Getafe on Oct. 14.
Real remained fourth in the standings on 38 points, two behind Valencia and with a game in hand but they are 16 adrift of runaway leaders Barcelona, who host Alaves on Sunday. (Reporting by Richard Martin, editing by Ed Osmond)

Sorry I have really neglected my blog recently, life has just got in the way it seems! I am going to try and change my ways and endeavour to blog more often! Ooops! It is silly really, as I have made so many lovely things recently, with some of the fabulous new goodies from the new 2014-2015 Stampin' Up! ® Catalogue and I really should share some of them with you!
So, here we go!
Some of my favourite things from the new catalogue are the Stampin' Up! Project Life collection of products - Project Life allows you to document your memories in a quicker way than the more traditional scrapbooking method. I love it! BUT, even if you are not into scrapbooking or memory keeping, a lot of the #PLxSU products can be used in alternate ways - you can use the Card Collections and items from the Accessory Packs to make all sorts of things - come and see just a couple of examples:
Here is one card that I have made using the Everyday Adventure Project Life Card Collection and the coordinating Every Day Adventure P.L. Accessory Pack:
|Http://paperglassstitch.blogspot.co.uk Lucy Tustian
|Http://paperglassstitch.blogspot.co.uk Lucy Tustian
I am a huge fan of washi tape and I just LOVE this geometrical design in the gorgeous Bermuda Bay colour that comes in the Everyday Adventure Accessory Pack (see the close-up pic., above!).
I love how all the #PLxSU items coordinate exactly with the Stampin' Up! colours - see how nicely the Bermuda Bay Candy Dot matches the washi tape? Swoon! I added interest by using the fabulous new Stampin' Up! Project Life Corner Punch on just two corners of the card's layers (one of my favourite tricks!).
As you can see from the photograph below, washi tape has many uses! I have stuck it onto some clothes pegs (clothes pins, to my American friends!) and made a hanging weekly reminder to go onto a cork board or edge of a shelf in an office/craft room.
For the string, I plaited three pieces of the Silver Baker's Twine together to make a sturdy cord and then threaded this through the pegs, with knots either side, to stop the pegs from moving along the cord.
I have stamped directly onto the washi-taped pegs with the days of the week from the Project Life Day to Day photopolymer stamp set, using black Stazon Ink. (So easy to do with photopolymer stamps as you can see through them to place them exactly where you want them!) The little heart stamp comes from another #PLxSU stamp set: Point & Click. isn't it cute! I finished the pegs with Basic Black and Bermuda Bay punched cardstock shapes (using the Chevron border Punch).
|Http://paperglassstitch.blogspot.co.uk Lucy Tustian
To complete the reminder set, I covered a small notepad and decorated it with the same cardstock, stamps and washi tape and glued a length of the plaited baker's twine under the cover, so it can hang next to the line of pegs. I clipped a small pen (also decorated with the washi tape!) onto the cord and hey presto, you have a handy hanging "to do list" reminder for every day of the week, plus a handy pen and pad of paper to jot your notes onto before you clip them onto the relevant day of the week.

I have given this set away... but think that maybe I should make another one for myself to keep as an "aide memoir" seeing as I have such a dreadful memory and am always forgetting things! Perhaps I might remember to blog more often if I had one of these on my pin board in my craft room or stuck onto my 'fridge with magnets.... hmmm... now there's an idea..... ;O)
Well, that's it for today, I think, (unless I've forgotten something!!). Do let me know if I have inspired you to use the #PLxSU items in a different way...
Until next time, happy crafting folks!
