Sexting your partner could wreck your relationship in the long term
Couples who send racy texts have better sex (but sending too many is bad for your relationship in the long run!)
- Purdue University experts quizzed more than 600 people from US and Canada
- Among the topics were sexting, self-esteem and relationship satisfaction
- Sexters did report more sexual satisfaction than the non-sexting group
- They were more likely to row and have doubts about their romantic partner
Sexting your partner may spice things up in the bedroom but could wreck your relationship in the long term, a new study suggests.
Couples were quizzed about their sexting habits and experts found that people who exchange intimate photographs and messages reported higher sexual satisfaction.
However, they were also more likely to have arguments, watch porn and flirt with other people online, according to a new study.
Sexters may be focusing on the sexual part of their relationship and neglecting other areas such as talking, listening and spending quality time together, scientists say.

The study of more than 600 adults, conducted by Purdue University, found frequent and hyper sexters – who did it several times weekly or many times daily, respectively – had problems in their romantic relationships.
They were more likely to row and have doubts about their romantic partner.
The activity also fuelled infidelity-related behaviours on social media, as well as the viewing of pornography.
The US and Canadian participants were all in committed relationships when they were surveyed about sexting, self-esteem, relationship satisfaction, commitment, conflict and their use of pornography.

Most did not sext and were just as happy with their partners as those who did, the study found, but sexters did report more sexual satisfaction than the non-sexting group.
Psychologist Professor Michelle Drouin, said: 'Sexting may help couples with intimacy and to spice things up. But we definitely did see the negative side of too much of a good thing.'
Professor Drouin said the findings, presented at an American Psychological Association meeting in San Francisco, show people who regularly 'sext' their partner are more insecure in their relationship.

Meanwhile, another study presented at the same conference found couples with similar texting habits tended to be happier and more fulfilled.
Researchers surveyed 205 adults between the ages of 18 and 29 who were in romantic relationships.
Questions focused on emotional security, texting habits and relationship satisfaction.
Those who described their partner as having a similar texting style to themselves reported greater relationship satisfaction.
In other words, couples who were more in sync with the kind of texts they sent to each other were more satisfied with their partner, regardless of whether the messages they sent were love notes or complaints about an issue in the relationship.
Study author Dr Leora Trub, of Pace University, New York, said; 'How couples texted was more important to the satisfaction of the relationship than how frequently they texted.'
According to research by Indiana University, almost half of all sexts sent between partners are lies.
Researchers found that out of 109 college students who had sent sexually explicit texts, almost half (48 per cent) had told fibs.
Two thirds said they had lied about things like writhing around in lingerie or touching their bodies in a certain way to 'serve their partner' but one third said they had done for amusements sake because they were 'bored'.
Additionally, lying during sexting was much more common among women than men, with 45 per cent of women and 24 per cent of men fabricating the truth.
Dr Michelle Drouin, the study's lead author, likened the act to lying about orgasms during actual sexual intercourse.
Commenting on the discrepancy between the sexes, she added: 'Women are more likely to fake orgasm than men, for obvious reasons, but more likely to pretend enthusiasm as well.
'Women lie to serve other people more than men [do].'
Based on relationship attitude questions, people who were more anxious about cheating or who tried to avoid closeness were more likely to have lied in sexts than those who were more secure.
Previous research has shown that couples who communicate similarly in any medium are happier in their relationships.
This research extended those findings to text-based communication, according to Dr Trub.
A second study, also presented by Dr Trub, found that texting can bring people closer to others or create distance, depending on the motivations underlying its use.
She said: 'We text to check in with our spouse during the work day and to stay connected with friends far away, but we also text to avoid dealing with relatives at the family party and to break up with someone.'
The survey asked 982 adults between the ages of 18 to 29 about their mobile phone use, levels of social anxiety and shyness and general personality traits.
Dr Trub added: 'Texting can become a crutch and eventually become a barrier to creating meaningful interactions.
'Texting all the time can also come from being lonely or bored, and that can lead to isolation and alienation.'
She said counsellors may be interested in their findings if they have clients who engage in unhealthy texting behaviours that may be damaging to their relationships.

How to Install Radiant Floor Heating in Your Home
By: Danny Lipford
Radiant flooring heating systems are an energy efficient way to gently warm a room by heating the floor. This system from Uponor uses hot water piped through a closed loop of flexible PEX plastic tubing.
First, the floor system—consisting of machined strips of plywood with a dovetailed groove to receive the plastic tubing—was screwed down to the subfloor. The curved returns at each end of the room allow one continuous piece of tubing to loop back and forth across the floor without any joints.
Once the track was in place, a bead of silicone caulking was applied to the bottom of the groove, and the plastic tubing hammered into it with a rubber mallet. A pump is used to circulate hot water through the tubing from a 2½ gallon hot water tank to warm the floor.
More information on this project can be found at (637) Today's Addition (Part 1).

In the video of installing the radiant floor heating system, who is the manufacturer of the panels that are laid on the subfloor to hold the flex tubing? Do they also sell the flex tubing and the water manifolds?

The laptop I am using now was bought in Oct 2008. Lenovo Thinkpad T61, T9300, 2G, 100G. I choose Windows Vista Business when I bought it - pretty expensive. Then I got sick of Windows, and thought, gee, why not install an Ubuntu on it. There started my road to Linux, the only OS on my laptop now.
Long story short, here is the time table.
Dec 2008, I installed Ubuntu 8.04 LTS on my girlfriend's old laptop Thinkpad R51, through wubi installation.
Jan 2009, I installed same distro on my T61, with dual boot, and everything worked great.
Jan 2009, Bye Windows. My T61 is powered by Ubuntu, only.
Installing Ubuntu was pretty easy, and there are tons of threads of discussion on Ubuntu on internet. I burned the 8.04LTS to cd, and took 20ish minutes to get it done. The only thing needs to be pointed out is that I didn't use the default partition option. My partition is / 20G, /swap 2G, and /home the rest of my 100G hard drive.

Olympic gold medalist Jones visits Houston to advocate water safety
Olympic swimming gold medalist Cullen Jones asked for a show of hands from students Wednesday at Spring Branch ISD's Buffalo Creek Elementary School, gauging the responses from a line of true-or-false questions.
"I'm a swimmer," Jones said. "How many of you guys think that's true? My job is being a swimmer.
"How many of you think I almost drowned?"
Predictably, significantly fewer hands were raised when Jones asked the second question. As the featured speaker of the 2012 Make a Splash Tour, presented by ConocoPhillips and the USA Swimming Foundation, the world champion freestyle swimmer shared his story of being submerged in a pool at age five at the end of a water park ride and needing to be resuscitated.
"The conductor told me to hold onto the inner tube like my dad made me promise," Jones told the students. "I hit the bottom in a big pool of water and I flipped upside down. So I'm holding onto the inner tube and I'm upside down in the water. I got swim lessons right after that."
Jones has since become quite comfortable in the water, embarking on a swimming career highlighted by a gold medal in the men's 400-meter freestyle relay at the 2008 Summer Olympics in Beijing. He holds the American long course record in the 50-meter freestyle at 21.40 seconds, as well as a share of the 400 free relay world record of 3:08.24 with Michael Phelps, Garrett Weber-Gale and Jason Lezak.
Speaking at the first stop of the six-city 2012 Make a Splash Tour, Jones hopes to inspire others to take swimming lessons and practice water safety.
"I think the reason they wanted me to be a part of this is because my story resonates with so many people, especially in the Hispanic or black community," said Jones, the first African-American male to hold a world record in swimming. "I get those stories all the time - 'I almost drowned so I'm afraid of the water now.' I grew up with swimming so it's kind of second nature."
Jones visited the Clay Road Family YMCA following the Buffalo Creek Elementary assembly to provide a swim lesson to local children. All first- and second-grade students at Buffalo Creek received a full session of free swimming lessons at the Clay Road Family YMCA.
"When I was in high school I was coaching kids," Jones said. "I had to do some public speaking, but most of the time it was swimming and coaching or doing something at my church. Now it's come full circle in that it's part of my job. I feel blessed, I'm happy to do it."
Jones and three-time Olympic gold medalist Rowdy Gaines were scheduled to take their presentation to New Orleans on Thursday, in support of USA Swimming's Make a Splash initiative.
The program offers free or discounted swimming lessons or water safety education through its 487 local partners, including several in the Houston area. USA Swimming Foundation Executive Director Debbie Hesse said more than 1.1 million children have taken lessons through Make a Splash, which Gaines said is a much-needed initiative.
According to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, more than 20 percent of fatal drowning victims are children younger than 14. A national study by USA Swimming and the University of Memphis found 60-70 percent of African-American and Hispanic children cannot swim.
"I think a lot of it is educating the public," Gaines said. "I don't think people are aware that drowning is such an epidemic in our country. It's a serious problem. I was born and raised in Florida. I grew up around water. I literally learned to swim before I could walk. So it angers and frustrates me when I read about a 4-year-old drowning in a backyard pool. I think the message for me is what's important."
For ConocoPhilips the Make a Splash Tour is "a natural extension of our commitment to safety," company Sponsorships and Events Coordinator Ric Sweeney said. ConocoPhillips has had a 40-year partnership with USA Swimming and Sweeney indicated Houston was an ideal place to open the 2012 tour.
"This is home for us so it's exciting," Sweeney said. "USA Swimming has always been great and has helped us out. When we went over the list of potential cities this year they wanted Houston. We're proud to host it and have everybody here. The school was great today. It was a great experience."
Jones said the last four stops of the tour will take place after the 2012 Summer Olympics in London, at which he hopes to compete. First are the 2012 Olympic Team Trials, June 25-July 2 in Omaha, Neb.
In addition to training to swim against the world's elite Jones enjoys working with Gaines and USA Swimming to educate the public and potentially save lives.
"We've been working together the last four years," Jones said. "I've looked up to Rowdy for years. It's really cool to be sitting here with a legend and not only train with him when I'm on the road but to spread this great message."

Mean Girls x Dylan's Candy Bar Collaboration Unveiled — Get Your First Look At The Collection
Everyone get ready, because we have some seriously exciting news. Dylan's Candy Bar and Paramount Pictures have teamed up to give us all a special gift — a 'Mean Girls' collection featuring all things from the movie. Are you as excited as we are?
This is the moment we've all been waiting for. Our fave candy store, Dylan's Candy Bar, and our fave movie ever, Mean Girls, have come together with Paramount Pictures, to create something magical. This September, the store will launch the collaboration, and everything will be right in this world.
It gets better. The collection is inspired by the outlandish quotes from the film (that we say almost every day!), and it features "Burn Book" cookies, "You Go Glen Coco" hot cocoa, "Is Butter a Carb?" buttered popcorn flavored jelly beans, and "Kalteen" chocolate bars, (no they won't make you gain as much weight as Regina!). The line also features adorable fashion accessories such as "Get in Loser, We're Going Shopping" tote and "Her Hair is So Big Because It's Full of Secrets" hair ties. The best part is — all of the items will be between the range of $3.25 and $32.00 — that is amazing!
All Dylan's Candy Bar stores will be hosting celebratory launch events for "National Mean Girls Day" on October 3rd, (obv!), and guests are expected to wear pink.
Dylan Lauren, founder and CEO of Dylan's Candy Bar, said in a statement, "There is a reason a movie like Mean Girls is such a hit! The witty dialogue, the authenticity, girl empowerment and friendship… these things are timeless. I can't wait to share the collection and relive some of the hilarious pop culture references that were inspired by the movie. So fetch!"
LeeAnne Stables, President of Worldwide Marketing Partnerships & Licensing at Paramount Pictures, also gushed about this collab, "Dylan's has done an amazing job bringing to life the iconic quotes and themes of 'Mean Girls' in this playful candy line celebrating the film. The collection is fun and inventive and a perfect way for us to keep this classic movie top of mind with fans young and old."
We cannot control our excitement — can you?
— Olivia Elgart

Do you remember the days when you had to put on a nice frock and a pair of heels to go to a gig? The years of standing or jumping around in grimy nightclubs with music pounding in your ears? The world of music is changing. Okay, maybe I'm being a bit melodramatic, but things really are afoot and Paris-based website La Blogothèque has something to do with that.
Brainchild of Christophe Abric, the project started when Christophe began filming bands playing live in odd locations around Paris – what he termed Take Away Shows. Now, 6 years later, the Blogothèque is still at the forefront of cool musical projects with its newest venture, "The Switch", which features bands playing simultaneously in front of a tiny audience in two different apartments and broadcast live on YouTube.
Hg2 got a chance to chat with Christophe about take away shows, the future of music and his favourite parts of Paris.
How did you first have the idea for the "take away shows"? Who was the first band?
It was in 2005. YouTube was emerging, and I was seeing more and more bad videos uploaded, filmed from the crowd during a show. It was great, but there was more to do… We just had to figure out what. It was only when I saw Arcade Fire going out in the street to play after their first Parisian show that I had the idea. We had to provoke something, to create a unique moment and capture it.
It took a year to convince a band to do it, believe it or not. But at that time, labels didn't understand me when I was explaining the project. Meanwhile, I met Vincent Moon. When Spinto Band agreed to be the first band we'd film, I asked Vincent if he'd like to do it with me. One of the best moves I ever made.
How do you get bands to agree to doing a show for you?
It's changed a lot. At first, it required a lot of energy, craziness. We've quickly been known as the 'two crazy French guys'. Then people got excited, and it was easier. Bands, labels were coming to us very easily. Now, it's different : there are so many websites doing "Take Away Shows" like this that the difficult thing is getting something different from the bands.
What are some of the most interesting spots in Paris you've filmed and why?
It's not an easy question. It's not only about the location, it's about a moment, where we are, but also who's there with us, what's happening, what are the encounters. But if I had just a place: Paris city hall with Battles. That was quite crazy.
Do you have any cool or unique new places on the list for future artists?
It's a secret ;)
What kind of equipment do you use for the shows?
One camera. Just one, light. Never more. And a lot of microphones. But everything needs to be very, very discreet. The purpose is that people in the street react to the music before they even see there's a team filming.
Tell us about your newest venture, The Switch. What is the concept and how are you filming it?
It is very different from the Take Away Shows. The spirit is the same, though – finding new ways to experience music through live acts and video. We're having two bands playing in two different private apartments with a small audience. And we're broadcasting the two shows live on YouTube. It's quite ambitious, and crazy… We had nearly 30 people working on it, the biggest team we ever had.
[youtube http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PHWzLVoRKg0]
What are some of your favourite places to eat or party in Paris? Do you ever chill with bands and, if so, where do you take them?
Right now, I'm lucky (or lazy) – my two favourite places to eat are super close to my home. Aux Deux Amis and La Cave de l'Insolite, in the Oberkampf neighbourhood, have incredible fresh natural food, and great wines, in a friendly, very 'Parisian noisy' atmosphere.
When I have time with bands… well I usually push them to play music!
Have you ever done any filming in other cities? If so, where and at which locations?
Yes, we have people working with us in lots of places. We've filmed Take Away Shows in New York, San Francisco, Istanbul, Mexico…
Are there any upcoming bands or artists that we should know about?
At Blogothèque, right now, we're all about Alt-J (∆).
Can you give us an inside scoop on which artists we might expect to see on the Blogothèque in the near future?
Guess what ? Alt-J (∆) ! And we're proud of having a piece of videos with the Alabama Shakes.

Romance of the Grail
The Magic and Mystery of Arthurian Myth
Appealing to anyone with an interest in Arthurian legend, this collection of Joseph Campbell's lectures is witty and engaging.
Preeminent mythologist Joseph Campbell's lectures on Arthurian legend and Grail mythology are transcribed and collected into one cohesive text in this brilliant addition to the late Campbell's impressive body of work. Known as the man who made mythology accessible to the masses, Campbell presents his material clearly enough for academics and laymen alike.
Divided into three sections, the work explores the historical climate in which the Arthurian myths were developed, the "questing knights" stories that make up the mythology (namely Parzival, Gawain, Tristan, and the Knights of the Round Table), and the various themes found repeated in these stories. Campbell is entertaining, injecting his lectures with humor even as he imparts knowledge. Here Parzival has been defeating knights in battle and sending them to serve Cunneware in King Arthur's court:
With all these famous defeated knights coming, Arthur finally says, "We've got to go find that fellow." So the whole court of Camelot packs up and leaves. In those days a thing like this was a kind of first-rate picnic, with all the pavilions, ladies, and horses.
The work is appended with Campbell's master's thesis from Columbia, which focuses on the dolorous stroke from Arthurian mythology. It is interesting to see the expansion of his ideas, with concepts that are touched upon in the thesis drawn out more fully in the later work that makes up the bulk of the book. Especially of interest is the Eurocentric nature of the early thesis and how that falls away in his later work. Campbell is well known for his idea of global patterns of mythology, and the text of Romance of the Grail draws links between Arthurian myth and mythology from Asia, India, and Africa. Various bibliographies and an index complete the work.
Editor Evans Lansing Smith, chair of mythological studies at the Pacifica Graduate Institute, has done a wonderful job of pulling Campbell's various lectures together. The result is a single text that reads as though Campbell had sat down and organized it out himself.

Pieces of broken shellac records from first site visit
Below are some scans of broken record pieces from the site. On initial inspection I thought the pieces were vinyl, but it turns out with a closer look that they're shellac; so in all likelihood the fragments are from older ten-inch records.

A prisoner who killed another prisoner at the Golden Grove State Prison more than 13 years ago, has lost his appeal before the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council to introduce fresh medical evidence.
By a 3-2 majority, the Law Lords, in a 22-page judgment, dismissed the appeal of Jay Chandler on Monday.
Lords Carnwath, Sumption and Reed dismissed the appeal, while Lords Kerr and Lloyd-Jones dissented. In other words, there will no new trial.
Chandler was convicted on 17 August 2011 of the murder of Kirn Phillip on 8 October 2004. He was sentenced to death by hanging. His appeal against conviction and sentence was dismissed by the Court of Appeal (Justices Paula-Mae Weekes, Alice Yorke-Soo Hon and Rajendra Narine) on 12 December 2013.
His appeal to the Privy Council raised an issue not considered below in the Trinidad courts – that is whether new medical evidence should now be admitted relating to his mental state at the time of the offence, with a view to supporting a case of diminished responsibility.
He also renewed his appeal on one of the grounds rejected by the Court of Appeal, relating to the judge's direction in respect of evidence of propensity. On 8 October 2004, Chandler and Phillip were both remand prisoners at Golden Grove Remand Prison, Arouca. At about 11 am on 8 October, prisoners who were going to have visits from members of the public that day were brought to the holding bay, and called individually by name to line up in the centre of the remand yard where they were to be searched and handcuffed.
Phillip had been searched and was standing at the end of the line of prisoners close to Prison Officer Mohammed. Chandler was the last prisoner to be called.
According to the prosecution, as Chandler approached Mohammed, he lunged towards Phillip and then pursued him across the yard to the gate of the south wing. He had a metal object in his hand with which he was making an upward and downward and sideways movement towards the back of Phillip.
Phillip was found to have a chest wound and was taken to the Arima Health Facility where he was pronounced dead on arrival. The cause of death was a stab wound to the chest.
The prosecution's case was that the wound had been inflicted by Chandler. At his first trial in March 2009, he denied the stabbing. He gave evidence that, as he was being handcuffed to Phillip, he had hit him in the face with his fist.
This was because Phillip had stolen $10 which he had given him to buy some cigarettes. When Phillip had begun to run towards the south west gate, Chandler had followed him for a few feet, but was stopped by officers who beat him with a riot staff, after which he became unconscious.
The first trial ended with a hung jury. At the second trial, beginning in June 2011, Chandler did not himself give evidence or call any witnesses. His case, as put in cross-examination, was to deny having a weapon, or having stabbed Phillip; the implication being that he had been stabbed by another prisoner after he entered the south wing, and that the police officers were lying.
In the course of the trial, the prosecution applied to admit evidence of "the Haynes incident": that is, evidence that in May 2009, almost four years later, Chandler had admitted stabbing Mr Haynes (a fellow inmate) in the neck with an improvised knife. After legal argument, the judge admitted the evidence. No issue is taken as to the judge's decision to admit it as relevant to propensity in accordance with the guidance given by the Court in R v Adenusi [2006] EWCA Crim 1059; [2006] Crim LR 929.
But there is a live issue as to the adequacy of the judge's direction on this aspect.
Three members of the Board refused the application to admit new evidence and dismissed the appeal. The other two Lords dissented and allowed the appeal and remitted the case for trial on the issue of whether, at the time of the killing of Phillip, Chandler was suffering from an abnormality of the mind which substantially impaired his mental responsibility.

"Our most ancient metaphor says life is a journey. Memoir is travel writing, then, notes taken along the way, telling how things looked and what thoughts occurred. . . .This is the traveler who goes on foot, living the journey, taking on mountains, enduring deserts, marveling at the lush green places...as a pilgrim, seeking, wondering." -Patricia Hampl

Torn Between Two Webpages
Too bad these kids didn't have an HTML-savvy teacher! Yes, after approximately seven years of "I lost my sheet," and "I can't find that," Ms. Hiller's gotten wise and made herself a little ol' webpage. Patience, blog readers! With summer's approach, my loyalties return to Writing the Open Road. (Would you like to take a time capsule back to your high school English class? Click the link above to recall fond sentences such as "identify significant moments in the book. . ." and other academic verbiage.)

You Don't Call, You Don't Write. . .
Apologies to faithful blog readers (all two of you). . . here's a brief explanation of what's been going on in the past two months I've been not-blogging. Forgive the brevity, but I promise to follow up with a juicy little ditty on what happens in Rochester between 11 pm and 7 am.
1. We moved. House pics to follow. Suffice it to say that our new digs ROCK. We love it here and are staying put.
2. In the middle of moving, we went to San Diego. That was for one weekend in April, and a welcome (warm) break from the the chilly east. The above pic was snapped at the Fish Market, where our friend Danielle pre-ordered a delectable, romantic, "happy engagement" meal for us, from champagne to appetizer to entree to delectable dessert. What a treat. What a friend! We also got to catch up with my Aunt Dee and Uncle Harvey, who also treated us to a delicious, homemade dinner and accompanied us to the San Diego Zoo. Now, Heath would like to adopt a chimp for a pet.
3. Packing, moving, job, wedding planning, unpacking, locating items necessary for life. Simultaneously, a little dizzying.
All in all, the kids are alright: again, stay tuned for more...soon. Promise.

I've been keeping a little secret from you guys. Well, not exactly a secret, just not exactly admitting to something.
At the beginning of the year, I decided my craft focus had to be on finishing things. I'm notorious for being ADD when it comes to my projects, and I just have too many that are undone.
I didn't want to say anything in case I didn't make good on my quest. It's the perfectionist in me, but it's time to get over it and get to work.
But, you guys, wait till you see this. You'll know immediately why I had to say yes to something new.
One of my friends at work, Carter, has heard me talk about quilting and happened to mention he had found a hand-sewn quilt top at his mother's house started by his great-grandmother, who passed it down to a daughter (or daughter-in-law, he's not sure), eventually winding up with his mother.
Since sometime in the 1970s, we figure, it's been folded up in a plastic bag in a closet. Take a look at this beauty:
(OK, try to ignore the toile curtains and checked bed skirt – they are so going!)
Isn't it gorgeous? I love all the solids in it and how even though it was likely started with fabric from the '20s and '30s, it has a really modern feel to it. Thankfully, the fabrics appear to be in terrific shape, just a few loose threads from the frayed edges on the back. Take a closer look at some of the blocks.
I love this block – with its little S and star, almost like it was destined to come to me!
Here's an interesting detail. All of the blocks are square in shape except for a row at the top, which looks like it was cut in half. (The blue stripe at the top is my Mariner's Sky quilt.)
So, what happened? The cut is too clean to be an animal's work. Was there a spill and the ruined part had to go? Or did the sewist think she didn't have enough fabric to complete a full row of blocks? Carter said there's another top and a couple of additional blocks at his mom's house, so lack of fabric seems unlikely.
I love trying to determine the history behind something like this.
The top measures approx. 76×85 inches, great for a full size mattress. As you can see, though, there are a lot of wrinkles. I put the question out to the MQG community forum and asked for feedback on ironing/quilting/etc.
They suggested laying it out flat for a long time (up to a month) and smoothing it with my hands and let it work out some of the wrinkles on its own.
You'll see what I mean when you look at the back. Stitching by hand, obviously, doesn't give you the straight lines a machine will. Also, the seams aren't consistent in direction, making pressing difficult. I think eventually I'll try using my Clover mini-iron and see how that works.
Everyone also agreed (as do I) that it should be hand-quilted, but didn't offer any suggestions as to how. What do you think? This will clearly be a long-term project, and I'm so honored Carter would let me finish a family heirloom for him, so I'd love to know your thoughts.
I've done very little hand-quilting, although lots of stitching, but I think I'd like to do something very simple, like stitch in the ditch. But first, I need to decide what to use for backing – should I use a '30s reproduction print or a solid? How about the binding?
I hope my excitement for this project will keep me going. Once I finish my garter-stripe blanket, it'll be the perfect watching TV activity.
But just in case, it's a really good thing Carter isn't in any hurry for it.
Linking up with Lee at Freshly Pieced for WIP Wednesday.

Barriers to Men's Health-Seeking Behavior
The main reason men do not go to the doctor is that men are socialized to believe that they are invincible. As a result, many men are afraid to get "bad news" about their health, preferring the ignorance of denial instead. Other barriers include being apathetic, not in the habit of going, and not understanding insurance policies. Interestingly, and unfortunately, many men derive psychological benefits from feeling sick or being in pain and NOT seeking medical help. In fact, we have witnessed men bragging about how sick they were and then ending the story with the proud declaration, "But I didn't go to the doctor!" We have collected far too many stories of men with serious symptoms toughing it out as a way to demonstrate, to themselves, that they are indeed strong and tough. This attitude needs to change. This places men at unnecessary risk of allowing sneaky, silent chronic diseases, such as diabetes, hypertension, periodontitis, and cancer, to get worse and worse, until it is "too late" for medicine to turn things around.
Another barrier men face is the unwillingness to discuss health issues with each other. There seems to be a stigma attached to men opening up to their family and friends for help, advice, and socioemotional support. Some men do not want to be seen as weak. Other men fear being teased for discussing personal issues.
A third barrier we have discovered is the lack of health education among men. For example, many men do not know what a PSA test is, and how to decide whether they should have one. Being in the know about such things is especially important for men with chronic diseases, such as diabetes. Some men do not mind talking about their health but still do not know enough about what to do to effectively manage those diseases. Having a accurate, up-to-date knowledge about the health conditions that affect men is crucial for empowering men to take better care of their health.

But if the consciousness of sin is to be produced, the law of God must be proclaimed in the lives of Christian people as well as in word. It is quite useless for the preacher to breathe out fire and brimstone from the pulpit, if at the same time the occupants of the pews go on taking sin very lightly and being content with the moral standards of the world. The rank and file of the Church must do their part in so proclaiming the law of God by their lives that the secrets of men's hearts shall be revealed.
All these things, however, are in themselves quite insufficient to produce the consciousness of sin. The more one observes the condition of the Church, the more one feels obliged to confess that the conviction of sin is a great mystery, which can be produced only by the Spirit of God. Proclamation of the law, in word and in deed, can prepare for the experience, but the experience itself comes from God. When a man has that experience, when a man comes under the conviction of sin, his whole attitude toward life is transformed; he wonders at his former blindness, and the message of the gospel, which formerly seemed to be an idle tale, becomes now instinct with light. But it is God alone who can produce the change.
Only, let us not try to do without the Spirit of God. The fundamental fault of the modern Church is that she is busily engaged in an absolutely impossible task–she is busily engaged in calling the righteous to repentance. Modern preachers are trying to bring men into the Church without requiring them to relinquish their pride; they are trying to help men avoid the conviction of sin. The preacher gets up into the pulpit, opens the Bible, and addresses the congregation somewhat as follows: "You people are very good," he says; "you respond to every appeal that looks toward the welfare of the community. Now we have in the Bible–especially in the life of Jesus–something so good that we believe it is good enough even for you good people." Such is modern preaching. It is heard every Sunday in thousands of pulpits. But it is entirely futile. Even our Lord did not call the righteous to repentance, and probably we shall be no more successful than He.

JDL Canada was out in force to oppose Toronto's annual anti-Semitic and anti-Zionist demonstration known as Al Quds Day.
Bloggers BlazingCatFur, BlogWrath and Eye on a Crazy Planet captured many disturbing speeches on video, including the use of children to utter hateful rhetoric.
The speaker in the video below — the former head of the now defunded Palestine House — said Jews should be shot if they disobey a "two minute warning" to get out of "Palestine."
As usual, a number of Hizbullah flags were spotted, even though the Canadian government has listed Hizbullah as a terrorist organization.

The third incomparable benefit of faith is that it unites the soul with Christ as a bride is united with her bridegroom. By this mystery, as the Apostle teaches, Christ and the soul become one flesh [Ephesians 5:31-32]. And if they are one flesh and there is between them a true marriage-indeed the most perfect of all marriages, since human marriages are but poor examples of this one true marriage-it follows that everything they have they hold in common, the good as well as the evil. Accordingly the believing soul can boast of and glory in whatever Christ has as though it were its own, and whatever the soul has Christ claims as his own. Let us compare these and we shall see inestimable benefits. Christ is full of grace, life, and salvation. The soul is full of sins, death, and damnation. Now let faith come between them and sins, death, and damnation will be Christ's, while grace, life, and salvation will be the soul's; for if Christ is a bridegroom, he must take upon himself the things which are his bride's and bestow upon here the things that are his.
– Martin Luther, On Christian Liberty (Trans. W.A. Lambert; Minneapolis, MI: Fortress Press, 2003), 18-19.

We hardly get to see them.. So, letting you guys know, I'll most likely be M.I.A. for the next few days. But I'll try and sneak in a post. ;)

Download a copy from the GFF Kindle Library
Original cover art painted by the legendary Jeffrey Catherine Jones.
Kothar and the Demon Queen is Gardner F Fox's third classic Sword & Sorcery story for paperbacks. There are 5 books in this series. Mr. Fox's was heavily inspired by Robert E. Howard's Sword & Sorcery stories: Conan, Kull & Bran Mak Mor. The Kothar books are listed in Gary Gygax's Appendix N as one of the few books that inspired the creation of Dungeons & Dragons.
As a boy, Kothar had been cast upon the desolate shores of Grondel Bay. Since that time, he had grown to lusty manhood, to become the greatest Swordsman in the World. He had well earned the name of Magnificent Barbarian. Nothing daunted him, not demons, not sorcerers, nothing Creeping or Crawling or flying; even the cunning White Worm had been slashed by his magic blade, the enchanted Frostfire. Yet now Kothar was challenged by the Demon-Queen, a beautiful she-devil of limitless cunning and unspeakable passions. For the Mighty Swordsman, it was his greatest trial.

The tenants who lived in my apartment before me didn't clean very well... so Tuesday evening I dedicated to scrubbing, vacuuming and dusting.
I put the gloves on and got working in the bathroom. I scrubbed that toilet like there's no tomorrow. As I mentioned before, the bathrooms here are completely different. The entire bathroom is like a shower. The shower head is connected to the tap in the basin and is a hand held shower. .... thankfully, the toilet is normal.
I had an issue where the basin got filled with water and I didn't know how to unplug it. So I went next door to my neighbour, and a man (probably in his mid 20's answered the door). Obviously, he didn't understand me and wanted to close the door in my face, but he came to my bathroom with me - (it's really not as weird or freaky as it sounds) and he showed me how it's done.
After cleaning the bathroom, I ironed all my clothes before packing them in my closet. By midnight I was beat, so got to bed...after watching some Korean TV of course....
Hello & welcome to my humble cyber abode. I write about many things - My life as an English teacher, finding my path in life, gadgets, travel, friends, food, love...anything & everything! Thanks for visiting, and please don't leave without leaving a message for me!

I am always looking for new ideas for my cards. I am sure all of you are too. When I find a card I really like, I tend to copy a picture of it and save it in a file of ideas to try. That is where I found my inspiration for today's card. It always amazes me how many ideas I have in my file. A lot of them I collected over 2 years ago. When my brother became ill and my life became caring for him and spending as much time with him as I could, I slowed down on my card making. So these ideas really sat and were forgotten. For me, opening this file is like opening a present. I always find something new I wanted to try. While the idea may be cased, I always try to change the color scheme of the card and believe it or not, I do not have every punch Stampin' Up! has ever made so I use different punches. Some were retired before I became a demonstrator so I figure out what to use in the place of any retired ones which can sometimes alter the look of the card. I happen to be looking through the card samples and found this little cutie. I wanted to give her a try so I will let you decide if I did a good job or not. Ready?
Doesn't Disney make the cutest characters? Minnie Mouse is one of the best and most recognizable characters out there. I saw this card on Ellen Kemper's site a while ago. However, she did not make it. It was made by a woman named Anita (I do not know her last name) and was first posted on her daughter Lucia Dune's blog. When I saw the face, I could not resist this one.
I started with a base card of Daffodil Delight measuring 4 1/4" x 11", scored at 5 1/2". Minnie always has a sunny attitude so the color seemed to fit it. I then rummaged through some retired designer paper that I had and found this beautiful Tempting Turquoise one with the dotted white circle on it. I cut it to be 4" x 5 1/4". I adhered it to the base card with runner adhesive. Next I took another piece of Daffodil Delight and cut it to be 2" x 4". I ran it through my big shot using the Finial Press impression folder. I then attached it to the top of the designer paper. I added white gel pen to the dots in the center of the flourishes.
Since Minnie is not my own original design, I am not going to list all the punches used to create her. Instead I would recommend you visit Lucia's Blog. Anita does a wonderful job of giving you instructions. I only had to substitute one punch on this one. The one she used for the black of the eyes is a retired one that I do not have. I used the wide heart from the heart to heart punch. I also chose to add pearls to Minnie's bow. I just love her in polka dots! The colors I used for her are Whisper White, Basic Black, Blushing Bride, Melon Mambo, and Regal Rose (tongue only). She is attached to the card with dimensionals.
The greeting comes from the Teeny Tiny Wishes stamp set. I stamped it with Basic Black ink onto Whisper White card stock. I highlighted the edges with black ink and then attached it to a Tempting Turquoise modern label. I added a pink rhinestone to each end and attached it to the card using dimensionals.
For the inside saying, I used a non-Stampin' Up! stamp. It is stamped in Tempting Turquoise ink onto Whisper White, I cut it out using the new Apothecary Accents framelits and my big shot. I edged the sides with Tempting Turquoise ink. I attached it to the card using runner adhesive. Jewel tone stickers were added to the top and bottom of the saying. I also colored in the stars with a Daffodil Delight marker. I promise it is on the card straight. I just did not hold the camera straight I guess.
Well that's it for today. Please come back tomorrow and I will have another share for you. Thanks for dropping by today. Happy crafting!

I've recently noticed my Instagram blow up with lots of girls using the 'NUDE by Nubyen' Lip Augmentation Gloss & their results look amazing! Since lip products are kind of my thing, I was so excited when Nubyen got touch with the opportunity to review this product for myself! Having tried lots of lip products with claims to boost your pout and never been that impressed, I was hoping this wasn't going to be another fad that I'd fallen for in a bid to get a Kylie Jenner kisser.
I'm a total sucker for cute packaging, aren't we all? So I wasn't disappointed when I opened this cute little tube in the mail. The sleek, monochrome design made me instantly fall in love with Nubyen's whole branding concept - it's so simple yet effective. Inside there's a 2.5g lipgloss & a few little leaflets about the ingredients.
HOW IT WORKSBasically, it's a clear gloss that can be applied over lipstick or used alone to amplify and intensify the volume of your lips. It does this with the use of natural ingredients :- cinnamon, lemongrass & hyaluronic acid which help to boost natural lip colour, plumpness and fullness as well as keeping them supple and healthy.
I applied the product over my lipstick as suggested, I just feel during this season there are too many beautiful shades that you don't get the opportunity to wear any other time of the year so to opt for a natural lip colour with gloss was just too fresh & summery for me.
The formula smells lovely, like honey & lemon. When you apply it, it feels really thick and sticky which was good to keep control of where the product was being placed. I must admit you don't need much of it, in fact, I'd actually say be careful how much you apply because if it drips on to the skin on your chin it can make it feel a little irritated.
Almost instantly after applying you can actually feel the product working. I can only describe it as a sort of nipping & tingling sensation but not uncomfortable in the slightest. This feeling does wear off after about 2-3 minutes.
The product definitely gave my lips a much fuller appearance. The usual little lines and creases I find on my lips were completely gone and my lips looked and felt significantly plumped as you will see from the photos. The effects of the gloss lasted for a few hours before I had to reapply which I thought was pretty good going considering I'd been out & had a few hot drinks.
The only thing I could say I didn't enjoy about this product was that the wind kept blowing my hair into it while I was out shopping which was really annoying however that is hardly a criticism of the product itself as this would naturally happen with any gloss. Note to self : wear hair up next time! Another thing would be that Ella kisses were off limits, in fact, so were Fraser kisses... so beware of the mistletoe location when you're wearing this because not everyone wants lip filler effect!
This being said, I feel that the pros faaaar outweigh the cons I have listed and this product has definitely delivered on it's claims. I'd definitely recommend this to anyone who wants to achieve a fuller lip but does not want to go to the extent of having fillers. This gives you a short term result of the desired look and at just a fraction of the cost!

Recently Italian soundtrack maestros Goblin were to perform a concert within spittin' distance of the crypt of the ol' Ouija Board Kid, but alas they ended up cancelling the gig. Well, unlike the last few times I went looking for something on YouTube, this time I was able to find an amazing vintage performance by Simonetti and the boys rocking out the theme to Argento's Deep Red (Profondo Rosso)!

Design Elements
While all memorials serve as a historical record of ones existence, not every memorial tells the story of one's life. The path of a traditional memorial is to be a testament to the fact someone was born, they lived, they passed and are now buried in the grave in which it marks. The other path is to express the legacy of life someone shared with us while they were here. This is a simple process in which you reflect on and tell the story of their life through the creation of the memorial.
The reflection on their life and the memories they leave behind can take many forms. You can express the gift of their life through color, shape, symbolism, written word and design. Technology today offers many more options than ever before, many of which are at no additional cost.
No matter which path you choose it is our job as memorial counselors to help facilitate and guide you through the decision making process. You are in control of this creative process throughout. We help you feature the memories of your choosing and how to express the story you wish to tell. This process can be as simple or as elaborate as you choose. Remember you are in control.
The design elements page is designed to walk you through the eight different aspects of life in which to pull ideas from. You are able to reflect on these areas and decide which treasured memories you wish to express from them.
Religious Faith and Beliefs
Religious faith is the central foundation of most of our lives. Faith is what we draw our core principals, values and morals from. Faith tells us that our loved ones are in a much better place and it provides us comfort and strength. Our faith serves as a retreat for understanding the grief and loss we are faced with. Our faith can be expressed through symbolism or the creative writing of scripture or a poem.
Special Events and Occasions
Some of the most significant moments in life come from special occasions such as weddings or the birth of our children. These special times can be expressed as a part of life's journey through the use of anniversary photos either etched or in color ceramic, the listing of children in birth order or through significantly related designs. There are many options available to suit the desired occasion and are only limited by your imagination.
The Working Years
Most of us will spend the better part of our lives working. Our work is usually very important to us and can often be a significant part of who we are and how we provide for our families. Expressing the story of what we do can take many forms from symbolism and writing to pictures and sculptural elements.
Life's Accomplishments
The moments in life we strive the hardest for are sometimes the most memorable. Our goals and dreams drive us toward what we call life's accomplishments. Whether becoming a state champion as a Senior in high school, earning a college degree, landing a dream job, starting that first business, buying that first farm or adopting a child; most proud achievements you wish to express can be incorporated in the memorial through symbolism, pictures or expressed in written form.
Our Character and Traits
Our character and traits are what make us unique as individuals. Memories of our loved ones personality and character are a gift to us which can require a little creativity. A favorite lyric from a song or a line from a poem, an expression or saying often used by them, the way cards or letters were signed, favorite quotes from scripture, and words that express how you would describe them all can be used as ideas of how to feature this aspect of their life.
The Roots of Family Heritage
The root of our family heritage is the story of where we came from and is a part of who we are today. Our family heritage can be expressed by ethnic symbolism, pictures and genealogy. The most common way to express genealogy is to have "Parents of …" followed by the names of your children on the memorial. However, there are many other ways of expressing this as well through shape and sculpture.
Social and Civic Contributions
The ways in which we contribute to the communities we live in are an important part of improving the lives of others. As a part of our local organizations, charities and churches; we make our world a better place to live touching one life at a time. As any veteran will tell you, their service to our country is their greatest duty and honor. No matter what organizations one is involved in they do make a difference to those around them.
Our Pastimes and Hobbies
The ways in which we spend our free time provide us with passion and excitement in our lives. Hunting, fishing, golf, listening to or playing music, playing or watching sports, gardening, hiking, or going on a walk are just a few of the things we enjoy doing. These interests can provide an opportunity to express special memories in our lives that touch us all.

Topic: let it out
Main Text: Matthew 5:14-16
It's quite easy to tag or label someone walking on the streets naked and dirty as insane. This is because no normal human being will exhibit such traits in broad day light when all eyes are watching.
But it's funny as to how those people tagged as insane actually see themselves better than those who are normal. It's not surprising because most times when you get used to or too comfortable with certain things it's difficult to notice when going off track hence the man mad saying he is normal.
Matthew 5:14-16
"You are the light of the world. A town built on a hill cannot be hidden. Neither do people light a lamp and put it under a bowl. Instead they put it on its stand, and it gives light to everyone in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, that they may see your good deeds and glorify your Father in heaven.
You know that sometimes just for selfish reasons some people want to be the only ones who possesses better things even if they've got to step on the heads of others to reach it and I wonder why we keep preaching love if we cannot show it by helping others.
Imagine that in the heat of the moment, a night before examinations begin for students, there is a total blackout but fortunately, you've got your lamp which is fully charged so you've got no worries. Meanwhile your roommates have none and instead of putting the lamp at a place where it can shine bright for everyone to benefit, you choose to be selfish so that you alone will pass the exam. So you placed the lamp on your bed and wrapped yourself with a black cloth covering the lamp as well so that you alone will benefit.
I don't think a mad man will even attempt this. But why is it that people who are well kept and normal are producing traits of insanity?
Hold on just yet, I'm about making a point here…
Jesus says His followers are the light of the world and so, they must shine bright everywhere so that others can see their way out of the darkness, but for selfish reasons believers are hiding their lamps, and some have also made it very dim that unless you are very close you won't even see any light.
So instead of tagging that naked man walking on the streets naked as insane you should be busy researching into why you have a lamp and you've been surrounded by darkness to the extent of not seeing anything and yet you choose to hide that lamp under your bed or dim the light to the point where only you can make use of it.
Before you dim or hide your lamp remember that Someone's life depends on you because you were chosen to attract people to your light to know the source of that power that they may be saved.
Father in the name of Jesus, thank you for this word and my life. Please forgive my sins as I forgive those who sin against me. Help me let go of this insane attitude of hiding my lamp from the world. Help me let it out and make it shine so bright that others can find their way in the dark. Thank you Lord for hearing me in Jesus name,amen.

- JOHESU has appealed to the federal government to pay its members April and May salary
- The union had embarked on an indefinite nationwide industrial action on April 18 and resumed work on May 31
- Some of the demands made by the union included upward adjustment of salary scale, employment of additional health professionals
The Joint Health Sector Unions (JOHESU) has appealed to the federal government to pay its members April and May salary in line with their agreement to suspend their strike.
Mr Achimugu Isaiah, the branch chairman, Federal Medical Centre (FMC Keffi), Nasarawa state, made the call on Wednesday, June 13, while fielding questions from the News Agency of Nigeria (NAN) shortly after a congress meeting of the union in Keffi.
NAN recalls that JOHESU embarked on an indefinite nationwide industrial action on April 18 and resumed work on May 31.
Some of the demands made by the union included upward adjustment of salary scale, employment of additional health professionals, review of retirement age from 60 years to 65 years and implementation of court judgment.
JOHESU consists of the National Association of Nigeria Nurses and Midwives (NANNM), Medical and Health Workers Union (MHWUN) and Senior Staff Association of University Teaching Hospitals, among others.
Isaiah said that payment of two month salary to the members of the union who embarked on strike to press home their demand would cushion their economic plight.
He added it would also boost members morale toward effective healthcare service delivery.
The union leader queried the selective nature of paying few members against the majority.
The strike was declared by the national body and the local chapter here only obeyed the directive of the national secretariat.
Actually, we only called members of the union to brief them on the outcome of our meeting with the management of the centre after the suspension of the JOHESU strike by the national body of the union.
After the suspension of the strike, we have been meeting with our management on the need for payment of April and May salary to our members but the management told us that those that were paid are those that worked during the strike.
Such beneficiaries like the management staff, drivers and their personal assistants, among others, were paid based on directive from the federal government.
They said that anything that was done was based on directive and they can only take our message on the payment of our April/May salary to the federal government for action.
It is in view of this that we are pleading to the federal government to consider our presentation, the plight of workers by paying us our April/May salary in the interest of peace, he said.
Besides, Isaiah urged the federal government to do the needful by implementing the demands of the union so as to put the issues that led to the strike to an end.
The chairman also urged the members of the union to remain calm, be law abiding and continue with their normal duties.
Reacting, Dr Luka Samuel, the acting medical director of the centre, confirmed that those that were paid are workers that worked during the strike.
Samuel listed the management staff, drivers, personal assistants, and those on sick bed, among others, as beneficiaries of the April/ May salary.
The acting medical director restated the commitment of the centre to continue to key into good health policies and programmes that have direct bearing on the lives of the people for the overall development of the country.
Meanwhile, NAIJ.com had reported that the Joint Health Sector Union (JOHESU), on Thursday, May 31, called off its 43-day-old industrial action and directing its members across the country to resume work on Friday, June 1. It is learnt, however, that its demands have not been met.
