The causes of the French Revolution
The French Revolution was both successful and a failure for many reasons. Some may believe it's one or the other, and others believe it to have been both. A few of the causes of the French Revolution were inequalities in society, ideas of enlightenment, and the financial crisis.
Inequalities in society began with the law called the Old Order, which divided the French by three different social classes also known as estates. These groups highly determined the wages and tax contributions of citizens of France. The first estate made up about one percent of the population of France, which is the Roman Catholic clergy. Since the Middle Ages, this clergy has had several privileges and advantages, and they did not have to answer to the same laws as everyone else including being exempt from paying taxes, and becoming very wealthy off of common people. They were resented for these things by the French. The second estate held the major positions in the government and military. The people that lived on country estates did all the work and were forced to pay very high fees and rents. The third estate, which is 97 percent of the population, and was made up of several groups. These included the bourgeoisie, the highly educated and very rich but they did not have advantages in the government. Below this group, were the hard workers known as sans culottes. At the bottom were the peasants, who farmed for the rich and had to give 10 percent of their income to the church, while often forced to do work without pay. Most of these workers were very poor and were hopeless.
Enlightenment Ideas were another cause of the Revolution. These ideas came from highly educated members of the bourgeoisie who used the writing of the great philosophers John Locke, Baron de Montesquieu, and Jean-Jacques Rousseau to inspire the French Revolution. They wanted to make a difference and create change, therefore they needed a revolution.
The final cause of the Revolution was the Financial Cricis, which affected majority of the country. During this crisis France was in a lot of dept, and King Louis XVI did not have strong leadership that was required at the time. Within a year, the country faced bankruptcy. Apart from this, the country was faced with some natural disasters. One was a hailstorm that ruined the harvest, followed by the worst winter France has seen in over 80 years. This caused wide spread hunger, which has cause anger in thousands of French citizens.
reign Of Terror
The Reign of Terror created fear throughout France, and has greatly impacted the Revolution and society. It started with the peasants hatred for the government, and eventually led to the Civil War. The concept of spreading terror throughout the country was started by Robespierre, who wanted to defend the republic from its enemies, even if that meant death for anyone who opposed the revolution.
During this era, anyone who was caught criticizing the Revolution, or was against the Old Order, was in danger of being executed. Some were even accused of being against the Revolution without any evidence and had very little rights and were not aloud to defend themselves. The Reign of Terror had a large amount of victims and executions by the guillotine became almost a casual and normal ritual. No group, gender nor class would be spared, that included women. Eventually the same people who started the Reign of Terror, became victims themselves, an example would be Robespierre himself for suggesting that this rule of Terror didn't have to be so harsh.
This violence throughout France angered many of the French and even foreign countries, and caused nation wide opposition to the Revolution. Even though the Reign of Terror had great intentions to protect the Revolution, it ended up making it worse and made the country weak. The aftermath of this Terror was revolutionary. France had to start a whole new government and created a new constitution with many restrictions on the rights of citizens. Because of this, France had a very weak and corrupt government, so that did not make things any better for the French and they were desperate for change.
Europes Reaction to napolean and the French Revolution
Napolean originally left a great legacy in France and in Europe that changed and revolutionized the French government, and helped spread the positive changes throughout Europe. One of these positive changes were the spread of nationalism, which helped the French respect their own country once again. However, he let his power and ego get to him, and made terrible decisions which led to starting an unnecessary war with Russia, resulting in the loss of many of his own men. This stirred up hatred from other countries, and eventually led to war with Germany, which he was there defeated, and was forced to give up his throne as a way to surrender. He was eventually imprisoned, and died mysteriously.
Although the French Revolution at first seems like a failure, it actually greatly impowered France and Europe in the long run. Because of the French Revolution, no longer would Europes leaders forever get to keep their high positions and get special advantages over everyone else, they now were under the same law. The French finally discovered that they could make a difference throughout Europe, and now had hope for a better future with the Enlightment ideas. These ideas influenced the entire world for the next 200 years.

Thought I´d lost it...
Thinking about what went wrong if anything did. I guess I got sick of producing my miniatures for sale, making the same item again and again made me bored. I love developing new items and have loads of ideas, but for a while I´ll be making miniatures for myself to keep. I´m not closing my shop and I will still be selling a few items on Etsy, but I won´t be producing on orders for a while.
13 comments:
Good to see you here again Annie!:) Enjoy creating your miniatures who said you must do the same again and again? ;) Have fun!ReplyDelete
I love the rusted numbers, very creative. Have fun making mini`s for yourself for a change.lolReplyDelete
Thanks Ewa and Jenn :0) Yes I will find the joy in creating miniatures again, and I´ll love to share my work wiith you. Hugs in return...ReplyDelete
Je laat hier een prachtige bak met letters en cijfers zien. Fijn dat je weer plezier hebt in het maken van de miniaturen.ReplyDelete
Groeten Xandra
Dear Annie! Missed you so much! I adore your work! Please don't ever stop making miniatures. As you say, making the same thing over and over again can be difficult. In the end, perhaps you felt like you were on a production line and we know for a fact that people who work on production lines are not happy people. Just create out of love little pieces of art as you are so very well capable of doing. Your creations are so unique. Take care!ReplyDelete
Very glad to know that you've got your mini mojo back again Annie, I'm certainly looking forward to seeing what you do next :)ReplyDelete
Wow! jouw bak met letters en cijfers is magnifiek! Echt prachtig! Het is altijd zo plezierig jouw nieuwe dingen te bekijken!ReplyDelete
As they say, "sometimes to come back, you have to go". :-) Sometimes we need a little break now and then to recharge our batteries as it were. I think that for some of us artists, custom orders, although welcome, can somewhat dampen our creative spirit when too repetitive. After 13yrs, I'm only just returning to miniatures again, so see, you've not been away too long! lolReplyDelete
Love your mini's and look forward to seeing them refreshed and on your terms. :-) Oh, and your ageing techniques are outstanding by the way.
Have fun creating your art and enjoy the upcoming holidays!
~ Deb
Welcome back Annie. A change is as good as a rest they say so I am sure you will feel re-charged and when ready return to some creative outlet. Take care.ReplyDelete
I'm slowly getting back the mojo myself. Good to know I'm not the only one.ReplyDelete
It's good to see you back blogging again. There's no enjoyment if the enthusiasm has gone, is there?ReplyDelete
Hi Annie,ReplyDelete
I think that this is a common experience for any artist, once your work becomes repetitive you loose the joy of creating.
It seems your break has given you new inspiration and direction and I look forward to seeing new work, it would be such a shame to miss out on your lovely work!!
Nice post within your sharing. Thanks a lot.ReplyDelete

Serhij Koroliuk
Mr. Koroliuk's artistic career took shape long before he entered school. In his formative years it was the arts that appealed to him - Art, Drama, Music and Photography as well as athletics - Track and Field, Gymnastics, and Wrestling.
Upon graduating, he was accepted in to the Dance Department at the Zhytomyr College of Art receiving his Diploma with Distinction. Continuing his studies in Kyiv, Ukraine at the National University of Culture and Performing Arts in the faculty of Drama and Choreography, his subjects included Choreography, Dance and Ethnography. He was fortunate and most grateful to have had such gifted professors as Mykola Trehubov, Evhen Zaitsev, Valeria Virska, and Raphael Malynovsky. Applying his natural talent and passion, his professional career soared quickly. He danced as a member of "Lionok," The Polissian Song and Dance Ensemble, and, The Bukovynian Song and Dance Ensemble. Both professional State companies.
In 1986, Serhij was invited to teach Ukrainian Dance and Choreography at the College of Arts in Chernivtsi. From this appointment he was chosen as Dance Director and Head Choreographer of The Bukovyna Song and Dance Ensemble under the umbrella of the Chernivtsi Philharmonic Organization.
All of this by age 28.
1993 brought about another challenge to this talented young man - An invitation to Canada from the Pavlychenko Folorique Ensemble to enhance their repertoire. In 1995, he became Artistic Director of the Ensemble taking it to new Artistic heights.
Presently, Serhij lives in Saskatoon and is well known across Canada for his eye-catching and innovative Choreographies. Aside from the ever-expanding colorful repertoire of "Pavlychenko," many Dance Ensembles across Canada; Shumka of Edmonton, Rusalka of Winnipeg, Tryzub of Calgary, to name a few, have invited him to do works for them. He is also in constant demand as an Adjudicator.
Mr. Koroliuk, wife Nina (also a Dance teacher, Licentiate of the Royal Academy of Dance) and son Kirylo, form a beautiful trio. In his free time, Serhij enjoys painting and ceramics. He is fluent in three languages. However, he does NOT understand the words "I can not".
" I have always envied artists."- Serhij says.
" If you are a painter, you are 'at one' with the canvas. You have your brushes, paints and inspiration - so, you proceed. Total independence. If the painting turns out to your satisfaction, you let the paint dry. And, it is forever. In the Dance genre, there is not the privilege of constancy. Each show has new energy, a new ambience, new challenges of talent, and is, in fact a new work of art. The life span of this creation is directly equal to the length of the number. Instead, Dance has another great advantage or privilege: To me, it is a "palette" that we as choreographers use. Movement of the human being with its wide variety of colors, shades and dimensions, reaches far beyond any color spectrum. Therefore, the reason I am most fortunate is that the stage is my canvas, the dancers my brushes, and movement my palette.
Behold dear audience. Enjoy."

Jimmy Allens
Jimmy Allens nightclub exists in the center of Durham City alongside the River Wear. Situated under the arched Elvet Bridge – the nightclub has been a popular venue for party goers in the seven years of its existence.
The History of Jimmy Allens
However, the location hasn`t been used as a nightclub for its entire history. From the 16th century, the location was used as holding cells for Durhams dregs and it was from what is now the night club that these condemed men and women used to be marched to the nearby local market square and hung.
The name of the nightclub was taken from the gaols most famous prisoner. Jimmy Allen (1733 -1810) had a chequered history. He was a very talented player of the Northumbrian Pipes, he was even official piper to the Duchess of Northumberland for two years. But he liked to drink, and gamble, and he also liked pretty women, conning them out of money to support his drinking habit. As well as this he was a horse rustler, consequently he was almost continually on the run from various authorities. He travelled as far afield as India, the Dutch East Indies and the Baltic, making money from playing his pipes with his extraordinary skill.
The authorities caught up with him eventually, however, and he was caught in Jedburgh, Scotland, for stealing a horse in Gateshead, Co Durham. He was sentenced to death in 1803 and spent the last seven years of his life in a cell beneath Elvet Bridge, his sentence having been reduced to life inprisonment. He died a few days before a pardon came through from the Prince Regent. It is said that if you listen carefully, you may still hear his ghost playing the Northumbrian Pipes from the cell beneath the bridge.

Mayer Brown has experience in many specific matters. Search the entire list.
Mayer Brown has more than 250 lawyers ranked by Chambers worldwide and more than 150 Peer Review Rated lawyers in Martindale Hubbell.
Computer and Telecommunications Law Review has published Gabriela Kennedy and Karen H.F. Lee's article on a statement issued by the Hong Kong Privacy Commissioner (PC) setting out advice on the collection of personal data by Stored Value Facilities (SVF) operators, as the first five stored value facility licenses were granted by the Hong Kong Monetary Authority (HKMA) under the Payment Systems and SVF Ordinance (Cap. 58) (PSSVFO) on 25 August 2016.
Gabriela and Karen addressed the risks of being in breach of the Personal Data (Privacy) Ordinance (Cap. 486) (PDPO) and of cyber attacks, as SVF operators collect more personal data from consumers. SVF operators should carry out a privacy due diligence exercise to ensure their internal procedures comply with the PDPO and that their security measures are sufficient. The new regulatory regime for SVFs and retail payment systems (RPS) came into operation under the PSSVFO on 13 November 2015, requiring issuers of SVF or new market operators to apply for SVF licences from the HKMA. In order to obtain the required licence, SVF operators were provided a one-year grace period, which came to an end on 13 November 2016 – it is now a criminal offence to issue or operate any non-exempt SVFs without a licence from the HKMA.

It's been such a cold day (due to go to minus 9 tonight) that it most definitely was not an outdoor day for me, but I'd loads still to make for Christmas so I was more than happy to stay indoors nice and toasty.
First up is a few of the cards I've made for my workmates - super CAS and kinda all the same but a bit different and all really quick to make as it's the same basic recpie. I fell in love with Sarah's Santa from Swedish House Crafts on this fab card, and of course, accidentally went shopping myself ;) Thanks Sarah for the early Christmas pressie from me to me!! :)
For my snowy effect on the coloured card, I splattered the BG with white paint and then added extra snow with white enamel dots. There's lots of sparkle on these cards - on some I've coloured Santa's beard with my clear sparkle pen, on others I've added clear gloss and glitter to the hat/bauble, and on them all, a big sparkly red nose!.
- Cuttlebug Mania - let it snow
- Word Art Wednesday #312/313 - anything goes
- AAA #105 - sparkle
- Addicted to CAS #126 - sparkle
- Penny Black and More December - CAS
I feel like I've been making Christmas cards for weeks, so it was a nice change to some more of my new Gummiapan stamps from Swedish House Crafts. Don't ya love him!!
I added googly eyes, and clear gloss to his teeth, eyes and balloon. Little silver stars fom stash. My lovely Stampin Up gingham DP was a recent candy win :)
- Die Cuttin Divas #346 - choice of sketch - I used June's
- Happy Little Stampers December - anything goes with dies
- Sugar Pea Designs SPDMIU38 - anything goes
- Addicted to Stamps #271 - anything goes

Make Money Doing What You Enjoy
Here's The Top 3 Ways To Make Money Doing What You Love
Knowing what is your motivation, your invigorator and energizer is a must.
One of the most important thing to make money doing what you love is to identify the energizer and invigorator since you will know what keeps you moving on. This is the key that keeps a person persistent until a goal is achieved. This is what keeps a person going when nothing else is working out. This is also the main reason why a person keeps on moving forward and being motivated without the encouragement from other people. Even if the person is not being paid, they will continue to do the activity that they love since they are motivated and persistent. It is the main description of an activity which invigorates and energizes a person.
There is a bit difference between the things that you like to do from a thing that you love to do, and you should know that.
Knowing the hazards in working at a job or career that a person hates is also really important. But what if they like their job. Most people have learned to love their job after many years that they spent with it, even though they don't like it before. Loving the job rather than hating it doesn't contain any physical or mental hazards. But liking something and loving it is as different as liking someone and loving them. There will always be a string of difference between the thing that you like and the thing that you love, and it is passion. That strong desire that comes from deep within that pushes a person when others around them want to quit. There are people who only opt to casually do a thing, however, they tend to give up because they are not passionate enough to pursue that decision. This is the time when you know when a person just likes something or a person loved it, because a person who love something will not quit because he has a passion. See the difference?
Knowing the reason why the people who shares your passion gets irritated, annoyed, worried and frustrated is a must.
The last step is the money attraction step. With this step, you could be able to share money making opportunities with people along with the satisfaction. You will surely be amazed after earning a money from a thing that you love to do. Next create, find or obtain a product or service that solves the frustration, irritation or worry. What is the main reason why we get irritated, worried and frustrated. Since due to research, these are symptoms which people are willing to get paid just to be eliminated.

PVR Director's Rare to release Sri Lankan film, 'With You, Without You' in India
MUMBAI: Renowned Sri Lankan director Prasanna Vithanage's Oba Nathuwa Oba Ekka (With You, Without You) is all set to see a limited release in India with PVR Director's Rare. Adapted from Fyodor Dostoyevsky's novella, 'The Meek One,' the film casts National Film Award winning Indian actress Anjali Patil and Sri Lankan actor Shyam Fernando in the lead. Originally a Sinhala and Tamil-language film, With You, Without You will release with English subtitles in Mumbai, Delhi, Bangalore, Chennai, Pune and Hyderabad on 13 June.
Set in post war Sri Lanka, With You, Without You is the story of two people who collide accidentally. Through these characters, the film expresses a deep and seemingly unbridgeable chasm that conflict almost always creates. The two ends of the 30 year-old bloody civil war in Sri Lanka, 45 year-old Sri Lankan man Sarathsiri (Shyam Fernando) and 24 year-old Tamil girl Selvi (Anjali Patil) fall in love only to discover that the colour of love is blue, and life, shades of grey.
Talking about the film, director Prasanna Vithanage said, "When I decided to adapt 'The Meek One' into a film, I based it upon the biggest issue of Sri Lanka which is the ethnic conflict. We live in a society which still has unhealed wounds from a war that lasted over thirty years and this confrontation of a Sinhalese man and a Tamil minority woman became the dramatic premise of my script. Their struggle with their own past for me was a metaphor for the struggles of the nation as a whole."
Added PVR JMD Sanjeev Kumar Bijli, "We are extremely pleased to announce the release of Sri Lankan film, With You, Without You in India. The film highlights a sensitive issue in the most touching way and we are sure that the audience will associate with the film, taking away the message that the director, Prasanna Vithanage has tried to convey. We look forward to continuing our association with the international film industries and bring quality films to our patrons in India."
With You, Without You has been screened and applauded at several Film Festivals like Chicago International Film Festival, Montreal World Film Festival, International film festival of India, Kerala International Film Festival and Hong Kong International Film Festival to name a few. The film bagged the Russian Critic's Prize at Sakhalin International Film Festival, SIGNIS Award at Milano African Asian Film Festival, Best Actress – Anjali Patil at 43rd International Film Festival of India etc.

I Know
I dunno, not much has been going on. Wednesday night we went out for coffee with Amy, Shaun, and Caley, and we made plans for the 6 of us to go to Boulder tomorrow.
I watched Must Love Dogs, cause I love John Cusack, and even he couldn't make this movie worth watching. It was awful. And Diane Lane? Every time I see her, all I can picture her as is a rock singer (Streets Of Fire).
I'm also frying brain cells watching Project Runway and The World Series Of Pop Culture. The news is just so depressing.
The highlight of my week was 2 things that arrived in the mail, a pamper package from Athena (you're the best!) and a magnet from California (not Geoff's kind of magnet).
The last time I was pregnant, I wondered who buys clothes for the first trimester? Now I know, it's women who are pregnant again and the minute they find out they're bellies go pop! All my shorts are too tight, so I'm struggling to find summer clothes that have an elastic waist. I guess I better win some money in Vegas so I can buy summer clothes. All my maternity clothes are fall/winter.
I didn't like Clerks, so no I won't be seeing Clerks II. I like some of Smith's other movies, so I don't know if I can be considered a fan.
Why is Hollywood remaking comic book movies? There aren't enough other comic books or even (gasp!) book books to made into movies? I watched the trailer for TMNT, it didn't get me all excited like Chris or Roland.
Alton Brown was on our morning news, promoting his new show, Feasting On Asphalt. Looks great. He showed how to make oatmeal in your hotel room coffee maker. I love Alton, I want to meet him. He spent a lot of time in CO while he was filming this, so maybe we'll discover someplace neat to go. I love the concept of the show, traveling the U.S. and getting off the beaten path. It airs for weeks in a row, starting on Saturday.
Alright, I'm gonna close with a quote from Hitch.
Sara: What's your name?
Chip: They call me Chip.
Sara: Aw, you can't get 'em to stop?

Am I The Only One?
Monday, July 24, 2006
I got flowers delivered today. It sure was a surprise to me, I've never had flowers delivered before. Aren't they beautiful? A congratulations from Meghan & Mike. Very sweet. I better go drop a thank you note in the mail.
Office Space Bunnies
Contains bad language. For outtakes, click here.
I've been working on reading a book for the last 3 weeks. It's been slow going, despite the fact that the chapters are short. It's due back at the library next week, I'm on page 35, and it has 426 pages. If I get really into it, I'll just put it on my wishlist or find a copy of it at the second hand bookstore near our house. Oh, the book is Watership Down.
What else is going on in my little world? Not much. Found out that Mom To Mom has been cancelled for next year. I guess I'll try to find a bible study, or I'll try and take a class. Something to get me out of the house once a week. I'm considering taking an aqua aerobics class, a dance class will wait until after the baby.
I have no plans for this week, just helping Elijah to recover. Hopefully by the end of the week, we'll be able to meet up with Amy & Caley. We may go to the mountains with them next weekend.
I'll close with a quote from Animal House.
Dean Vernon Wormer: Fat, drunk, and stupid is no way to go through life, son.

How Truth Can Change
Had a good talk with Colin this week, which I always enjoy. It has really put a fire in me to go up to Edmonton in the next year. I think that I'd like to arrange a family gathering, since it isn't often all the Torrances are all together. Maybe we could even get Kelly up too. :) But we have to work it around Amy & Brody's wedding. At least they have the date set, so we can make plans next year.
The problem with traveling is Elijah will require his own seat (and ticket), so it's becoming harder. Who knows what the new year will bring, perhaps we may even venture driving up there.
I'll close with a quote from the Three Musketeers (for you Lisa).
Porthos: Champagne?
Athos: We're in the middle of a chase, Porthos.
Porthos: You're right - something red.

Would You Like Some Cheese To Go With Your Movie?
Last night we watched Good Night, And Good Luck. Much better, and interesting to me because I wasn't alive during the McCarthy era. I could see why it was nominated for so many Oscars, and I could see why I didn't win. It's good, but it isn't "blow you away". Mind you, Oscar doesn't always award the worthy. But I'd say it's worth a watch.
Friday night Amy, Shaun & Caley came over for dinner. It was nice to have them, they are a neat family. Sean said Amy talked about us a lot. :) Well, we hang out like once or twice a week. It was nice to get to know Sean better. We'll definitely hang out again soon I'm sure.
(Note to C&K: We're thinking of you. Here's a picture to make you smile.)
I'll close with a quote from Good Night, And Good Luck.
Edward R. Murrow: We'll split the advertising, Fred and I. He just won't have any presents for his kids at Christmas.
Sig Mickelson: He's a Jew.
Edward R. Murrow: Well don't tell him that. He loves Christmas.

Color Of My Brain
What Color is Your Brain?
At work or in school: I like set routines and organized ways of doing thingsl rules and directions are a great help to me. I prefer to stay on one topic at a time. I need to know what is expected of me, and I always want to know if I am on the right track. I like subjects that are useful and traditional, such as business, accounting, history and government.
With family: I like stability and security and enjoy traditions and frequent celebrations. I like to spend holidays with family members, and I plan ahead for such gatherings.
Take this quiz!

Always Changing Probably
Happy (belated) 9th Anniversary to Cate & Kaisara! We're honored to have you guys as friends and Elijah's Godparents. We can hardly wait 56 days to see you.
Elijah and I went to Curious George today. He lasted 30 minutes before he was done sitting. So we spent the rest of the time walking the hallways of the theatre. Ran into Myrna and family. It must have been a popular choice for activities today. We'll have to rent the movie, as I found it entertaining and funny. And George was very much like Elijah, right down to the emptying of toilet paper rolls. :)
It's so stinkin' hot here! We're in upper 90s all week and all next week. Gotta find some money to get to a pool!
I read online that Keith got booted from Canadian Idol. That's a huge mistake, he's super talented! I found a video of one of his performances on YouTube. Sure wish Easily Amused was coming through Colorado sometime soon. A few months ago their van got robbed in PA, and they lost everything. So it'll probably be a while before they do a big tour again.
I've been watching Last Comic Standing again. They have a few good comics, particularly Josh Blue (go Denver!) and Chris Porter. Was content enough with the eliminations thus far, except for Kristin, who just couldn't put together a strong enough act (but she's good), and Gabriel, who blew it by breaking the rules. He was my favorite (after Josh), I love to watch his special on Comedy Central whenever it airs.
So now you're caught up (if you are still reading). I'll close with a quote from Curious George (before we had to leave). I laughed at loud at this, I thought it was funny.
Cab Driver: Where you headed, Yellow?
Ted: Bloomsberry Museum, and I'll give you an extra ten if you don't call me "yellow", Okay?
Cab Driver: Sure thing, Sunshine.
Tuesday, July 11, 2006
I had plans to go swimming on Monday with my friend, but she went into false labor. I told her it was the queso skillet we had Sunday night. :)
Thursday I'm taking Elijah to his first movie. I'm not sure how it will go, but it's free, so I figure if he hates being there, we can leave.
VH1 is airing a show called the World Series Of Pop Culture. I'm totally rocking on it, but Geoff won't let me try out for the show, he said I'm not a big enough loser.
USA has found a great match for Monk on Friday nights, Psych. It's hilarious, I love it. Tune in if you get the chance.
Okay, nothing else is going on. I'll close with a quote from Return To Me.
Megan Dayton: "What do you expect most from a relationship? A: Companionship. B: Sex. C: Respect." I'd have to go with B: Sex. But let's mark "C" so we get a higher score...

Quote For The Day
-Yogi Berra
Here Comes The Sun
This weekend we didn't venture out of the house much. We took a trip to the Southlands farmer's market, which was awesome. Someone was selling homemade ice cream. Thankfully I didn't have cash on me, otherwise we would have been eating ice cream at 9am. :)
We watched Batman Begins (finally) on Friday night. Since Cate liked it, I figured it had to be good (Cate has good taste in movies). Geoff really liked it, but I don't think I got into it until Lucius Fox was introduced (who doesn't love Morgan Freeman). Then I felt like I was laughing the rest of the movie. I told Geoff maybe it's because I'm a girl, I didn't relate to the struggle of Bruce trying to find himself. Don't all guys go through that? Anyways, it was an enjoyable movie, maybe even worth buying.
Despite the rain, I did get a big ray of sunshine from Athena. She & Stephanie are coming to visit this fall! With Lisa coming next Spring, I don't think life could get much better.
I'll close with a quote from Batman Begins.
Bruce Wayne: Well, you know how it is, Mr Fox. You're out at night, looking for kicks, someone's passing around a weaponized hallucinogen.
Friday, July 07, 2006
Tidbits (Not To Be Confused With Timbits)
- Because Canada can't seem to get control over mad cows, Lisa was told she couldn't send me Aero bars?! WTH? She did it anyway, so we'll see if they arrive.
- I've got cool stuff coming up in August, September & October. That makes me smile.
- I totally felt convicted listening to Live What I Believe (Russ Lee), so I'm working on the issues that God has laid upon my heart. Essentially, if I feel like I can't love someone, I should at least be praying daily for God to show His love to them, and for Him to send other Christians into their life.
- The Kroliks (specifically Abbie) gave Elijah a toy when we were there, and he is now mimicking the sounds it makes. It's funny.
- When we bought the new umbrella stroller, I really wanted to get the one with an iPod holder on it, that will play the music in a speaker on the canopy. But I'm cheap, so we didn't get that one. :)
- How does one person meet so many famous Brits in one night?! Kelly, you know I'm gonna have to tell everyone that Brave Sir Robin hit on you. Oh and next time please tell Sir Paul I say hi. Lucky lucky girl!
I Thought It Was Funny

Music Soothes The Savage Beast
Holding on to problems that were never really mine
searching for solutions that I know I could not find
calling on You help me realize and now I see
there really is no mystery oh Lord You hold the key
Let go of my troubles, let God have all those
don't have to worry no more
Got to be free now, You can help me now
let go let God
I had such a peace about everything after I listened to that song, I ended up playing it like 3x. It's Let Go Let God, off the Prince Of Egypt Inspirational album.
I find music (and prayer) can usually turn my attitude around. I just need to take the time to do that, instead of dwelling on the negative.

What We've Been Up To
How did we spend the Fourth? We went down to Cherry Creek, which wasn't busy at all, had some Peet's and picked up an umbrella stroller for Elijah. Something that is smaller and easier for small trips (like Boulder, or Vegas). It was on sale.
I also talked to Cate briefly, who was killing time during her layover in Denver. Had it been longer than an hour, we might have driven out to the airport to say hi. I secretly hoped that those crazy rains we've been having would have hit while they were there. Then we could have had them over. We'll be seeing Cate & Kaisara in 64 days or so. I can wait.
Last night I talked with Heather on the phone for 93 minutes. We haven't talked on the phone since February I think. So we had a lot of catching up to do. It was really nice talking with her, though Geoff was sad I had ignored him half the evening. Oops. :)
Not much else going on this week. We're trying to tighten the money belt to save up for our trip next month.
Lastly, I wasn't sure how the Oilers would make out with the loss of Pronger. So when I read in the Edmonton Journal they secured Lupul for Pronger, I was stoked! Now that's a good deal. And it's even better when you hear Lupul say he is happy to play in Edmonton (he's from Ft Saskatchewan). He said, "It's going to be refreshing to be in a place where hockey really matters".
I'll close with a quote from Notorious.
Alicia: My car is outside.
Devlin: Naturally.
You Might Think We're Crazy...
But we're going to Vegas in August! It's a cheap flight there, and a cheap stay at the hotel we like (the Orleans). Nana & Grampy are meeting us there, and it'll be Diane's first visit to Sin City. Geoff has Vegas fever bad, he's gonna drive me crazy!
Saturday, July 01, 2006
Happy Canada Day!
Elijah celebrating Canada Day last year.
He's grown a little hasn't he?
We were able to enjoy the sun and art at the Arts festival. No, we didn't buy any. We're not in a financial place where it's important. I'm thankful that they were handing out sunscreen and even had sunscreen stations, because I'm an idiot and I didn't put any on before leaving the house. Now I have some in a small size to throw in the diaper bag! We got some money out of the bank and decided we'd buy supplies for dinner at Whole Foods and the Farmer's Market. What did we make?
Homemade pizza with basil and fresh asagio cheese. (Lisa, I know how much you like me posting pictures of food on my blog!) Naturally, we cooked it on the charcoal bbq, my new favorite way to have pizza. My friend Amy thanked me for introducing this to her menu, she and he husband love it too.
Well, that's pretty much been our day. Hope my Canadian friends, family, and American friends visiting Canada today had a lovely Dominion Day. I'll close with one of my favorite Jim Carrey quotes.
"Yes, Canada. It was a frozen, hostile wasteland. And there was much work to be done if we were to survive the elements. After boring a hole through the ice to find food, my good friend Nantook and I would build an igloo to protect ourselves from polar bears. . . and flying hockey pucks. Then we would drink a lot of beer. Then when Nantook was ready, he would tell me the story of the Great Moose. . . who would say to the little squirrel, 'Hey, Rocky! Watch me pull a rabbit out of my hat."

I was thumbing through my recommended videos on YouTube last night. I do that sometimes. Different movies get recommended to me, and I often look in to see why they were recommended to me. Sometimes I find them interesting, and sometimes I don't. Well, this one video I looked in, it was kinda interesting. But the thing most interesting to me was some of the comments being made about Americans. Every time I see someone saying the things they do about us, I always think "WTF?" And who are the biggest bellyachers about Americans? None other than the British! Now, this is not in any way reflecting on my British friends, I love them! But those British who do nothing but sit their asses at their computer and gripe and fuss about Americans are starting to give me the ass!! WTF is their problem?? Don't they realize that a lot of white Americans are basically nothing but British that "evolved in isolation from the rest of them"? In other words, we are "seasoned British". LOL! That's what I like to call us. But why do they feel such hatred towards Americans? They call Americans dumb and lazy. Maybe it's because the New Yorkers are so nasty and pushy? Or maybe the British are still pissed off because they lost some of their best citizens when they sailed here to get away from King James I. But I heard he was a nut! I want to get away from Obama too! The only thing keeping me here is knowing that in at least 5 more years, he will be eligible for replacement. If he doesn't get voted out first! He aught to be ashamed of even considering putting a muslim mosque at ground zero, where 9/11 happened! That's like a slap in the face to those who died.
Anyway, back to my original subject. As for Americans being lazy, I understand that England is almost running neck-to-neck with Americans for being the nation with the fattest people. So if they think we are fat and lazy, then they are too. So both countries must be doing something wrong there. I still think it's the bulk-up hormones being injected into our beef! It can't be anything else. We have better men, I love bulky men! We have more better schools here, Anna is going to one of the very best in the country! We have better actors and actresses. We have better technology. I have yet to see England launch a rocket into space! So why the heck are they hating on Americans? Every chance they get, they hate on Americans. I see it all the time and it's crazy! There is just no need for it. It's a quiet war going on between the younger generation of the USA, and the younger generation of the UK.
I dunno, this could be the thing that is also going to mark the end of the world. People being so hostile to one another. I try to maintain a good attitude. But with everyone all around me hammering at me for all kinds of petty reasons, sometimes it's difficult to keep my cool. Anna says I should stay off YouTube. LOL! Well, my consolation is that not everyone on YouTube is bad. Yesterday I blocked someone who is not a bad person, but he was hounding me about a subject that I've completely closed the book on, and have no desire to keep on going with. Because he's going to say he's right, and I will keep believing I am right, and for the sake of my well-being I had to block him. Because I just have no interest in turning around my beliefs. If people would accept others' beliefs, then the world would be a more decent place. I always accept other peoples' opinions. I don't like to silence, or block, someone on YouTube! Well, sometimes they make it so easy by being so pushy, acting like my channel is their's and using name-calling, and those people I actually enjoy blocking. But that last one made me feel bad! I almost wrote to him on his channel, explaining why I blocked him, but I decided not to. Because if I had, I knew it would have attracted more people with his beliefs to my channel. Many are not as nice, or subtle, as he was.

I've made a tri-fold pamphlet that I think will be helpful for getting more information about the 12 Steps to those in the community who know nothing about the 12 Steps (yes, there are lots of people out there who have no idea).
So, here is a little assignment for those of you who want to help share the message of recovery in the parish:
1) Either print the pictures below or email me for a pdf copy of the brochure.
2) Make about 20 back-to-back copies, then fold them in thirds.
3) Ask your priest if it is OK to leave these out where your parish keeps information pamphlets, tracts, etc.
4) Keep the supply regularly replenished.
If you've got a correction or a serious gripe about this, please post a comment. I'll work on some other ones as I get inspiration.
[Correction: these are Version 1.1... the first one had a typo... thank you, Robert!]

# 312 The Mods - Lost touch
Side a: 1.King And Country , 2.Our Street Numbers , 3.This Is My Night Out , 4.If You Got To Go
Side b: 1.Friend Or Foe , 2.Out Of Sight (Hey Hey Hey) , 3.Wasting My Time , 4.This Is What It's All About
This great record is a little bit misterious and i'm not sure about the song names. I found them in the web. Some rumours say that's the same band with another singer as the band who feature on the "Mods Mayday 79" compilation. You know more ? The music is strong influenced by the mighty "The Jam". Love it !

This isn't about "The Mods" vinyl. Being that you do not have a contact link, I had to post in here. I have a copy of Andy B. Badd's "Home Boyz In Luv" 1988 12" (4 tracks) available for sharing on your blog. It's the only release he did and falls into the hip hop/pop kind of area. Very enjoyable tune. If interested, write me at firstname.lastname@example.com and I'll share the DL link. Bye for now.

hi bristolboy ! great to hear from you ! i think it's not a bootleg. the band marked the cover with "bootleg". but i'm not sure ;-) so you're maybe right with the irony. but nevertheless a great record !

ADHS: Stop asking our midwives to do the impossible.
They cannot offer informed, evidence-based care and follow your inconsistent rules.
Coercion is not consent!!
What: Rally in support of Arizona Midwives
When: Thursday, November 5, 2015
Where: In front of the Arizona Department of Health Services, 150 N. 18 Avenue, Phoenix, 85007
Why: 22 of the 74 licensed Arizona midwives have been disciplined for failing to practice according to the Arizona Rules & Regulations. It's time to let Governor Ducey, the Arizona Department of Health Services (ADHS) and elected officials know that we want to stop the public persecution of midwives. It's time to support them in their efforts to offer safe, evidence-based care to Arizona's birthing families.
The state of Arizona has known for years that it's archaic laws force a midwife to choose between compliance with said rules and regulations, and honoring the autonomous rights of her patient to a safe, evidence-based birth.
In proceedings held in November, 2014, one state employee admitted to this conflict:
More highlights from the Administrative Law Judge Decision, written by her Honor, Judge D.M. Lang
My favorite line:
"...it is not appropriate to require anyone to do the impossible."
I'm going to be there on Thursday – will you join me and other birthing families to show support and raise our voices with Arizona's midwives?

- Character progression and empire building is a core foundation of EVE; short circuiting that process is too high a price to pay.
- There are other means to achieve the same retention goals.

New Player Acceleration
3 comments:
- AnonymousOctober 27, 2015 at 8:31 PM
I pretty much agree with your breakdown but come to the exact opposite conclusion about skill point trading. Very possibly because I run through a different thought experiment when thinking about the situation.
The Thought Experiment (and keep in mind this is a thought experiment only):
In 'optimal' Eve, youngish player wealth acquisition and skill point progression would match up: the amount of time it takes to progress into a shiny new class of boats would closely match how long it takes to acquire the ISK for that boat. But of course nobody plays optimal Eve. Some youngish players' wealth acquisition far outstrips their skill point progression while other youngish players' skill point progression far outstrips their wealth. What skill point trading does is allows youngish individual players to balance out their particular game. If they are ISK heavy they can buy skills enabling them to put their ISK towards mitigating 'I'm too young" limitations. If they are skill heavy they can sell off those skills for needed ISK thereby putting those "I'm too poor to use" skills to work. How delightfully sandboxy.
On Retention:
I remain cautious about claims concerning how this affects new player retention. Without doubt, some impatient young players will look at a long training queue, real money plex hop forward a few months only to die in a fire and leave in a "I wasted a bunch of cash" huff. At the same time, we already have players who patiently undergo months of training only to jump into a boat (or career), find they don't like it and leave in a "I wasted multiple months of subscription fees" huff. I can't say which is better or worse for retention. What I can say is that when I was reading the dev blog I saw lots of room to develop a new niche that players may partake in or avoid as they see fit. That's a type of new content. Not one that greatly appeals to me and most likely doesn't appeal to you but will appeal to some and that seems worthwhile to me.
(Just now setting up a Google Account so I'm not sure how this post will look)Replies
Post looks fine to me. Welcome to the dark side. :)Delete
Your logic is reasonable. I'd be more on board with it if there wasn't a penalty for the skillpoints earned by the 80M+ crowd. Take away the notion of "accelerating noobs" and instead sell it as "skill point flexibility" and I might switch sides in the debate.*
Tbh, most of my reservation is actually about actively accelerating one part of the playerbase into the other. Take that away, and I can shrug off the retention side of it, given everything else that's being worked on (caps, citadels, pve).
*There are ramifications I'm probably omitting. But this is a coment, so I'm keeping it short.
Since forever new players have had less skills than old players. We've trotted out the story about how skillpoints aren't what defines a players level. Skillpoints just give flexibility. It's knowledge and experience, it's player skills (not character skills) that determines at what level you will play.ReplyDelete
Now that they thinking about giving new players a way to close reduce some of the skillpoint gap, now suddenly the veterans are saying that giving skillpoints to new players is accelerating them. Surely it's just giving them "more flexibility"? It's not like they suddenly going to acquire experience and knowledge.

First brevet of the season
I rode my first brevet last Saturday; it was a 200km ride through eastern Ontario. The ride started at 7AM on the other side of the city so I had to drive for 45 minutes. While driving, I encountered rain, then a snow squall that stopped just as we were getting ready to ride. It was also windy and gusty, overall not the ideal conditions for a long ride.
I think we were 12 brave souls at the start, some old faces and several new ones. Of course I was the only one in a velomobile, in fact the only bent this time around. Several noticed that the new velomobile was much smaller than my previous Carbon Quest. I decided to ride not very aggressively as it is very early in the season and I am not fully comfortable in the DF yet. We started together and I followed the faster riders, I would pass them on straightaways and they would pass me on the hills.
Unfortunately I still have the 160mm cranks and my knees touched the top of the shell several times a minute so after several hours, the knees were sore. I managed to finish relatively well but it was my slowest time on this course. When my bent legs return and I have shorter cranks, I hope that I will do much better. Generally the DF performed well, shifting was crisp, climbing works well too, the stiffness of the shell is noticeable, I climbed many of the hills using the large ring. I have to get used to the tight space inside trying to find items like food or my cue sheet can be challenging at times. I have to get used to the new ride.
Velomobiel has decided to change the name of the Quattro to Quattrovelo to ensure the name does not infringe on the Audi trademark. I think this was the right move for Velomobiel who would have had to face a big team of lawyers to defend their choice. In addition, the font is similar to Audi's Wordmark but different enough as to ensure it is also in the clear. These issues were extensively discussed on the German forum and discussed with Velomobiel.
The molds were completed from the original plug and the first body is curing in the mold and will be painted and shipped to Dronten. Other parts like the wheel wells, turtledeck, hood and chain guards still need to be produced but it will give Allert and Theo something to work with to install the mechanical components.
Incidentally, it appears that the staff at the Romania factory refers to the Quattrovelo as the Batmobile!
Steve has published pictures of his Milan MX for larger riders. The new model provides extra room for big feet and broad shoulders. The large shoulders are accommodated with side bulges. But there is more room overall without compromising too much on aerodynamics.
|Milan MX (right) with Milan GT (left) notice the shoulder buldges on the MX.
The price for the new hood for the DF appears to have been set at €650. No mention of the delivery timeframe.
Short pants coming soon? It looks like Daniel's latest project is the design of short or every day wheel pants. He claims that he can ride at 50km/h on 105W and 80km/h at 300W and somewhere around 550W to get to 100km/h
DF with wheel pants could travel at 80 km/h average for one hour. This would set a world record. is faster than the standard production by 15 to 20km/h.
Unfortunately Daniel does not like the look of the everyday pants, but they are a bit slower than the racing version.
The first prototype of the Tourtop was modified using foam to change the shape. The shape raised slightly should improve aerodynamics.

January 2: Resolved
Have you ever made a New Year's Resolution that you kept?
This last year I had made five Resolutions. Read 52 books, Buy a house, Get a big kid job, Workout more and finally get out of credit card debt. I completed two of the five. Not my best work. I read 52 books as well as got a big kid job. The working out stayed for a few months, but nothing the past four or five. I did not buy a house sadly and still have the credit card debt. This year, I only have three. Again, I keep the get out of credit card debt goal. I will probably have that goal forever. But I also want to make 365 posts on this blog. I hope to make more. Finally, learn to play the piano. That will go into my read twelve books goal for this blog as well. I plan to focus first on reading music. From that how to's on the piano. Finally I plan on learning some history about different music styles. Lets see how this year goes.

There are those who say that law school teaches the theory but not the practical skills of being a lawyer. Some law school classes are obvious exceptions - e.g., in Lawyering Skills you learn and improve your legal research and writing skills, and you get a chance to try client interviewing and oral advocacy. In clinics, you may meet with real clients and appear in court under the supervision of a licensed, practicing attorney. There are also other classes in which the focus is on skills rather than theory. And, of course, you will need the background of the substantive law classes, even if they seem merely theoretical to you right now.
But what about all those day-to-day rules and policies that may sometimes seem more annoying than educational? Are they teaching you anything practical that you will need to know when you start practicing law? According to Kristen David Adams, co-author of The Practice of Law School: Getting In and Making the Most of Your Law School Education, many of the seeemingly rigid requirements of law school are imposed by the faculty for the purpose of teaching students the discipline they will need to be competent attorneys. For example, the penalty you will pay in law school for being late or unprepared for class, or for turning in a paper late, is small compared to the penalty you would pay if you showed up late or unprepared for court, or tried to file a document with the court even a minute late.
First year students, who will be participating in their first oral arguments over the next couple of weeks, can take comfort in the fact that all those hours they have spent being questioned by professors in class have prepared them to think on their feet, a skill they will need for oral argument and many other situations in the practice of law. Read about the other hidden educational benefits of law school at All You Really Need to Know You Learned in Law School.

Russian Federation: Federal Security Service (FSB) versus prisoner of concience Aleksandr Nikitin: return to Soviet practices
Aleksandr Nikitin, who was working for the Norwegian environmental organization "Bellona Foundation", has been accused of leaking state secrets under Article 64 of the Russian Criminal Code (treason) for writing about accidents on nuclear submarines and the consequences for the environment. Amnesty International is concerned that the Federal Security Service (FSB) which leads the investigation into the case has continuously violated national and international standards of criminal procedure and appears to be more concerned in obtaining Aleksandr Nikitin's conviction than in establishing the truth in the case through fair judicial determination. The organization is concerned that the prosecution of Aleksandr Nikitin reflects the worsening human rights situation in the Russian Federation and that, if he is convicted, further arbitrary prosecutions of innocent people by the FSB may follow.

Disclosure: I was compensated by World Market to shop their new spring items but as always, all items are chosen and styled by me and all opinions are my own.
Hi guys!! I'm bringing you a little spring décor inspiration today using products from the new Spring collection at World Market. I love the change of seasons! The most hopeful season change of all though is Spring, of course. Just when you've had enough rainy, grey days up in Seattle, the cherry trees start to blossom and the days start to get longer. I feel like spring came a little bit early this year so I started to freshen things up around the house in February and now I'm going to share a little updated corner with you today and how you can copy the look!
Something I love to do during the warmer seasons is bring the outdoors in! From bringing in tree branches and foliage to bringing in outdoor furniture, I do it all! Yes! Outdoor furniture!
This chair is part of the new outdoor spring collection at World Market. It's a weathered grey wicker piece and I love how it brings in a lighter, airier feel to this space. You can always add textures like pillows and throws to it to make it extra inviting. The wicker material just screams warmer weather days to me!
To make it a little extra comfy, I threw in this throw pillow and really couldn't stop with just one. I adore this pillow because of the fringe and the light blue stripes. Plus, it's perfectly plush!
What is a chair without a side table, right? I picked up this little gold arrow accent table for a steal. It's only 79.99 at World Market right now and I feel like it can float around to any room in our house. The glass top gives it that airy look I wanted and the gold metal brings a little glam to this corner.
I love adding plants around the house for depth and design aesthetic but all plants should be grounded properly. I suggest using this sea grass basket from World Market for your floor plants because it is narrow at the top and not too tall - just the perfect size. It grounds the plant without distracting from it!
I love adding a few pops of color to any room during spring and summer. When I saw this throw blanket with the bright aqua and light blues mixed with grey (obviously one of my favorite colors), I snatched it up right away. Just because the weather is warming up doesn't mean you need to bury all your throws in your linen closet. I like to keep light throw blankets out for texture purposes and put away the heavy ones for when fall returns.
I'm not a huge believer that walls need to filled to max. I like simple but striking statements like this metal wall clock. This is definitely my favorite piece of the whole look. I was the most excited about this clock when I saw it in the store and couldn't wait to hang it. I love that it has that rustic, almost rusty texture around the edges and it's super lightweight. It looks clean, effortless, and makes that statement I was going for.
To tie something into my arrow accent table, I chose to hang this wood and metal arrow wall hook to hang some springy statement pieces.
Design tip: if the frame comes with a gorgeous architectural photo inside it, don't worry about swapping it out for a personal photo. I save personal photos for larger prints.
I hung my new bag and scarf that I picked up at World Market on the hooks and they basically count as decor when they are that pretty!
To fill the accent table, there are endless design opportunities with this thing. I considered a large vase with flowers, a picture frame, a table clock (there is no such thing as too many clocks), coasters and candles, and tons more. I landed on this geometric candle holder (technically a geo terrarium), candle, and a faux succulent. I loved the simplicity of this because there was enough going on in this corner already, keeping the table simple was important to me. A favorite book and a refreshing drink just pull me right in!
I hope you enjoyed this spring update! Let me know what you think in the comments and visit me on Instagram here!
