Bright Beginnings: Violations galore vex center
Last August, Heather Williams enrolled her two children, Sarah and Alex, at the Mill Creek branch of Bright Beginnings Preschool, where, she emailed me, they received "excellent care and nurturing. Thanks to the guidance of Miss Caroline and Mrs. Lorraine, Sarah is more than ready to start kindergarten this fall."
Alex, however, who was 10 months old when he started at Bright Beginnings, didn't fare as well; he experienced a total of 11 employees.
Over the course of his 10 months at the center, Alex was cared for by "Miss Nancy, Miss Angela, Miss Julia, Miss Jennifer, Miss Nicole, Miss Julie, Miss Holly, Miss Pat, Miss Amy, Miss Susan, and Miss Barbara." Whew!
"This," Williams notes, "is where my opinion of Bright Beginnings deteriorates.
"Each time a caregiver left Bright Beginnings," she asserts, "a licensing violation occurred: too many kids and not enough adults."
Williams also claims that she came upon a letter from the Department of Social Services (DSS) "hidden behind fliers and handouts" on a bulletin board, "even though bold print declared the letter must be posted in plain view of the parents."
Whether the letter was indeed posted in a less-than-obvious spot, I confirmed its existence. In fact, a Freedom of Information Act request to DSS resulted in 120-plus pages' worth of violation notices, inspection summaries, and certified letters. All four locations of the school– Mill Creek, Earlysville, Crozet, and Forest Lakes– are represented; although a wide variety of other, sometimes trivial, infractions appear, inadequate staffing is cited in report after report.
The Forest Lakes facility was put on probation in July 2001 and fined $500; it was placed on probation again in September 2002 and fined $1,000. In both instances, inadequate staffing was the cause. Forest Lakes will remain on probation until September 23, 2003. The Mill Creek center was put on probation for one year in March 2002– again because of improper staffing ratios– and fined $1,000.
With one exception, the documents I received cover only the last three years. The exception was a 1999 letter to Bright Beginnings after the Earlysville center had been fined $500 for inadequate staffing and $500 for a headline-grabbing incident in which a child wandered away from the center and into traffic on Earlysville Road.
Like inadequate staffing, another set of repeat violations concerns the amount and type of food Bright Beginnings serves. A March 2001 violation notice for the Earlysville center stated that food servings were not adequate, and the center agreed that the situation would be rectified. The following month, however, another violation notice was issued– for the same infraction.
For 10 children aged two to five-and-a-half, the inspector stated, lunch consisted of "22 fish sticks, 2 cups total of green peas and 1 3/4 cups of canned peaches. Approximately 2 oz of milk was served per child. This was not an adequate amount of food or milk." Once again, the center agreed to improve.
During the March 2001 visit, the center also promised to "change the wording" on a sign outside that said the facility was "nationally accredited"– which it hadn't been since 1999.
When asked whether Bright Beginnings' record of violations was higher than average for this region, DSS Licensing Administrator Chris Fracher replied, "I can't comment on that."
Parent Williams claims that owner Kathe Petchel is "impossible to reach by phone" and "unavailable to the people whose money she bankrolls weekly. When I called five other childcare facilities, in an attempt to discover if this was regular business practice, I was easily able to contact the owner and speak to him or her directly."
Pechtel refused to speak with me, but faxed the following statement, quoted here in its entirety: "We as a preschool implement and strive to achieve a high quality standard for families in our community. Throughout the past 18 years of serving children and their families, our continuing success is clear and speaks for itself."
On June 13, Williams withdrew her children from Bright Beginnings.

Big chill: Alexei motors home on walk-off error
Dunn takes Peavy deep; Johnson fans nine batters over 6 2/3 frames
CHICAGO --- There's just something about Alexei Ramirez and game-winning plays the past few days. The man they call the Cuban Missile might get a new nickname: late-game Alexei.
Ramirez scored the game-winning run on a throwing error by Red Sox shortstop Xander Bogaerts as the Chicago White Sox won their second consecutive game on a game-ending play, 2-1, Tuesday night at U.S Cellular Field.
Ramirez played the role of hero for the second straight game after hitting a two-run, walk-off home run to beat the Indians on Sunday.
"First of all, very, very happy that that happened," he said through translator and manager of cultural development Lino Diaz. "It's something that is very collective, it's a lot of people that's involved in it, and that's very good. The best thing is we're looking to win and we are winning. We've got a lot of guys playing well, so that's a good thing."
Ramirez singled with one out in the ninth off Boston reliever Burke Badenhop, extending his hitting streak to 14 games, which is just one off Frank Thomas's franchise record for a hitting streak to start a season. Ramirez moved to second two batters later when Adam Eaton walked off lefty Chris Capuano.
Marcus Semien then hit a grounder up the middle that Bogaerts scooped up while ranging to his left. His throw was in the dirt and couldn't be dug out by Mike Carp, who entered as a defensive replacement for the injured Mike Napoli to start the inning, and Ramirez raced home from second.
"I knew it was going to bounce, definitely," Bogaerts said. "It took a weird hop also, but as I said, I should've thrown that ball right in the chest to Carp and gone into extra innings."
Semien almost didn't get the opportunity to put the ball in play. He check swung at a 2-2 pitch from Capuano but was ruled to not have broken the plane. The Red Sox wanted a strike called regardless of the swing call on what was a very close pitch.
"No, I didn't think I swung," said Semien. "I looked back and saw how A.J. [Pierzynski] caught it, and he made it look like a pretty good pitch. I think they were mad about it not being a strike. But I just made it to the next pitch, and after that we won the game."
Daniel Webb picked up his first Major League win in relief, needing just one pitch to retire Carp in the top of the inning with two runners on. Webb finished a string of zeroes put up by the White Sox bullpen, which had certainly taken its lumps entering the series. Chicago's bullpen entered the game with baseball's worst ERA at 6.93, but Scott Downs, Jake Petricka, Donnie Veal and Webb combined to hold the Red Sox hitless over the final 2 1/3 innings.
Before that, rookie Erik Johnson went pitch-for-pitch with Jake Peavy in the Boston right-hander's homecoming to the south side.
"It was nice," Ventura said of the bullpen's effort. "It started off with Erik. He was as good as he's pitched this year. Sharp and ball is coming out with life. The bullpen coming in and doing what they did, you know that's what you are looking for. It was sharp. Downsie came in and did his job. Everyone came in and did the job. They give you an opportunity to score runs."
In the second inning, more replay controversy occurred. Jose Abreu was called out on a play in which Napoli dug a throw out of the dirt in plenty of time, but it appeared as though Napoli's foot might have been off the bag. Ventura challenged the play, but the call stood, meaning there wasn't conclusive evidence to overturn. It ultimately cost the White Sox a run.
"I'm not doing too good on those," said Ventura of replay challenges. "But you look at the replay, you see what you see on the field. ... I haven't seen the replay yet.
"But I know what I see on the field and then what everyone else sees on the replay. Having trust in it is getting pretty hard right now. Even looking around the league, it's a coin toss if you are going out there."
One batter later, Adam Dunn bested his former teammate and good friend, launching a 2-2 fastball just over the wall in right to give the White Sox a 1-0 lead. It was the 443rd home run of Dunn's career, giving him sole possession of 38th on the all-time list.
"First of all, you haven't checked the numbers, because I have no bragging right against him," said Dunn of Peavey. "But yeah, that was a good win and seemed like we kind of let him off the hook in the second and third inning, and whenever you let a guy like that who's got stuff like he's got off the hook, it can be a long night -- and it was for the most part."
Peavy settled down after that, pitching out of jams in the fourth and sixth. The White Sox, meanwhile, failed to capitalize on a pair of scoring opportunities.
After Dunn walked with one out in the fourth, Peavy twice threw over to first when Dunn -- who isn't exactly known for his running ability -- was no more than two feet away from the bag. Much of the crowd was not amused. Afterwards, Dunn was.
"I don't know what he was doing, actually," Dunn said. "That was interesting but -- I don't know, I don't know. I'm always in the stands or looking at something, so he probably assumed that I wasn't paying attention and get a cheap one."
Daniel Nava evened the score in the fourth, blasting a 3-1 fastball left up by Johnson deep into the right-field seats. It was the only major mistake made by Johnson, who allowed one run on just three hits in 6 2/3 innings, striking out a career-high nine while walking two.
"Tonight it was a good outing," Johnson said. "I was glad I could go that deep for my team. I was really able to throw my pitches for strikes, throw all four for strikes and I was spotting my fastball pretty well. It was a good one to have in your back pocket and to build off for the next one."

Honestly, I don't know what's more surprising about this story: that a 15-year-old girl beat out 228,000 other Excel fans, or that Microsoft holds an Excel World Championship at all.
The final leg of the competition was held in San Diego, California, where the 15-year-old Rebecca Rickwood of Cambridgeshire, England, racked up a perfect score of 100 per cent following timed tests using Excel 2007. Having been awarded with $5,000 (£3,061) in prize money, she can now afford to upgrade to Office 2010 41 times. [BBC via TechRadar]

'The Dictator' poster: Sacha Baron Cohen covers Central Park
Over the past few months, Sacha Baron Cohen has been slowly pulling back the curtain on his latest character, the Gaddafi-esque despot Admiral General Aladeen, in the build-up to the May 16 release of his new comedy, The Dictator. First came a Super Bowl teaser. Then, taking a page from his Borat playbook, Baron Cohen staged a highly publicized prank on the Oscars red carpet, upending an urn purportedly filled with Kim Jong-Il's ashes all over Ryan Seacrest's nice, clean tuxedo. In March, Paramount released the full trailer, and we learned that the movie is a fish-out-of-water story in which Aladeen is stripped of his wealth and power (and prodigious beard) and set adrift in New York.
Now Paramount has released the new poster for the film, which shows a gargantuan portrait of Aladeen stretched across New York's Central Park from end to end. The poster's message is clear: Aladeen is a man with tremendous humility, class, and subtlety. Just ask Seacrest.
Check out the poster below and sound off in the comments:

Bridgestone has announced that they are going to bring forward the introduction of a new 2012-spec front tire, and start allowing riders to use it starting from the Jerez round of MotoGP. The new tire was tested extensively during the pre-season, with versions tried at both Sepang tests and at the IRTA test at Jerez. The tire features a modified construction which allows it to heat up more quickly as well as provide more feedback to the riders.
The selected construction was one of two types tested during the pre-season. The two types – designated as "21" and "24" – differed only slightly, the central section being slightly less rigid in construction on the 21, when compared to the 24. The riders were positive about both types, but were split on which tire was best. The majority of the riders preferred the 21, praising it as having better stability and feedback. Surprisingly, the Honda riders took the opposite view, saying that it was the 24 which was the more stable tire, the 21 providing less stability under braking.

Bill Cosby's wife says she shouldn't be subjected to "outrageous questions" about her sex life and other deeply personal topics in a defamation lawsuit filed by seven women who say the comedian sexually assaulted them decades ago.
But a lawyer for the women has asked a judge to step in to make sure Camille Cosby answers more questions in the lawsuit. Camille Cosby sat for the first part of a deposition last month; a second session is scheduled for April 18.
A federal judge ruled last month that she had to testify in the deposition but didn't have to answer questions that fell under the Massachusetts marital disqualification rule, which says a spouse doesn't have to testify about private marital conversations.
U.S. & World
Her lawyers have since asked a judge to terminate the deposition, or at least limit it, citing "a litany of improper and offensive questions" asked during the first session by the women's attorney, Joseph Cammarata. They said the questions related to Camille Cosby's "own sexual relations, her own political commentary and the death of the Cosbys' son in 1997, among others." Ennis Cosby, 27, was shot and killed during a robbery attempt.
"These questions were irrelevant to the issues in this case and plainly were designed to annoy, embarrass, and oppress the witness," Camille Cosby's lawyers argued in a court filing Friday.
Her lawyers claim Cammarata repeatedly sought irrelevant testimony from Cosby about her opinion of the honesty and integrity of her husband.
Cammarata, however, has asked the court to appoint Magistrate Judge David Hennessy to preside over the remainder of Cosby's deposition to deter what he calls "deposition misconduct" by her and her attorney, Monique Pressley.
Cammarata says Cosby refused to answer dozens of questions based on an overly broad interpretation of the marital disqualification rule, attorney-client privilege and a "non-existent" privilege of privacy.
"Judge Hennessy's presence is necessary to deter Mrs. Cosby from further interfering with her own deposition," Cammarata wrote in a court filing Monday.
The latest squabbling over Camille Cosby's deposition comes as both sides await a ruling from a judge on whether the defamation case will be put on hold while a criminal case against Bill Cosby plays out in Pennsylvania. In that case, Cosby is charged with sexually assaulting Andrea Constand, a former Temple University employee, at his suburban Philadelphia home in 2004. Cosby has pleaded not guilty.
The women in the defamation case claim Cosby tainted their reputations when he allowed his representatives to brand them as liars after they went public with their allegations of sexual assault. They are among approximately 50 women who claim Cosby forced unwanted sexual contact on them decades ago.
Bill Cosby has repeatedly denied all allegations of sexual misconduct and has countersued the seven women, claiming they defamed his character.

We have many entries on the CemeteryScribes database for individuals who were famous for their charity and good deeds , their professional and financial achievements, or their contributions to the Arts and Sciences, but this is the story of a person who was famed, not for his life, but for his burial.
Camillo Roth, a Viennese member of the London Stock Exchange, was born in 1846. He took British nationality in either 1868 or 1872; there are two entries for the same name on the National Archives website. Despite being a British Subject, we have found no evidence of a permanent domicile. In the 1871 Census he was lodging, alone, at a small hotel in Conduit Street and, thereafter, he seems to have taken up residence at Hatchetts Hotel in Piccadilly. His collection of paintings included works such as 'Charlotte and Sarah Hardy, the Daughters of Colonel Thomas Carteret Hardy' by Thomas Lawrence 1801, now to be found at The Cleveland Museum of Art. But whether these works of art adorned the walls of his rooms in Hatchetts Hotel, to be enjoyed on a daily basis, or whether they were stored unceremoniously in some dusty Bond Street Gallery cellar, remains a mystery. Like much else about this rather elusive man.
Camillo died at Hatchetts Hotel on 9th April 1888. We have found no mention of any family, either in London or on the Continent, so we may assume that it was his considered, personal and, for the times, highly contentious, choice to be cremated.
The cremation, which took place in Woking, Surrey was reported in the Jewish Chronicle in such detail as to make unpleasant reading; the reporter evidently torn between the twin emotions of disbelief and wonderment. The Crematorium at Woking had been built less than ten years earlier, so the practice was not widely known, but it was probably that this was the first ever cremation of a Jewish person in Britain that led to such morbid interest. Surprisingly, The Jewish Chronicle adopts a very moderate and enlightened tone on the general subject of Cremation, suggesting it would not be contrary to Jewish Law. And the 'Daily News', in its account of the cremation of Mr. Roth, reaches a similar conclusion, citing the fact that Mr. Lazarus of the West London Synagogue was present and Professor Marks conducted a service, as proof of its acceptability.
We can only wonder at the discussions that may have taken place prior to the agreement for the subsequent burial of the ashes at Balls Pond Jewish Cemetery, the first discussion of its type in the UK: would cremation be contrary to Jewish Law; remains artificially disintegrated rather than naturally returning to dust, versus the fact that these remains, or ashes, would be returned to earth as required by the Law.
The Jewish Chronicle reports that the Executive were guided by the Ministers regarding the interment when granting the application. The length of time between Mr. Roth's death on the 9th Oct, and the burial of his ashes some 5 days later, suggests the Ministers did not rush into a decision.
Mr. Camillo Roth was buried at Balls Pond. His tombstone holds no clues as to the turmoil that his choice of burial must have caused amongst the community, nor the notoriety that followed it. There is no mention in the inscription and any visitor passing by it would never know.

Economic recession and depression are part of the larger psychological ecosystem that interacts with individual human depression. If we were too busy to notice these relationships before the current economic 'downturn', we cannot fail to be aware of it now if we read the headlines.
We all live together in a largely unnoticed greater context of nested interacting ecosystems. This is a way of describing and interlinking environments of all sorts—physical, social, economic, educational, climatic, geophysical—I could go on naming them until the list and their interactions became too complex to imagine, let alone sort out. That is the work of science, and this is a brief article of opinion.
People are killing themselves and each other at an increasing rate. While what the media casually refers to as 'gun violence' has always varied quite a lot, in the United States statistics have been more or less consistently bloody with up's and down's but the yearly totals of deaths by violence of all kinds is usually written in red ink. Murder is probably easier with a gun, but without guns, psychotics would kill with knives or bats or automobiles. We cannot hope to limit the uses of sticks and stones, bats and bullets, but we can and must deliver mental health intervention to desperately needy families and individuals even in tough times. Most especially in tough times. Everyone knows of at least one such example. Every community institution is aware of several or many. We pile up the papers, overwork and underpay our health delivery workers and ignore the problems until the spike on the desk is suddenly bloodied.
Since the downturn, there has been an up-tick, a compulsive thumb cocking the hammer and releasing the safety; taking aim at the mirror or through the window. Desperate times trigger desperate acts and the times are becoming increasingly desperate.
The feeling of helplessness, or real hopelessness and helplessness for that matter, is at least in part a mental and emotional trap, a closed dark room. For some this room has only rage and a gun as an exit.
Will we change our attitudes about emotional stress, depression, and the potential for destructive acts like murder and suicide, or quite often murder/suicide and rid ourselves of the stigma of being human and terribly upset?
Probably we will not be effective in large-scale public education and healthcare delivery for some time to come, as financial resources for preventative care are being cut from budgets. Can you see the downward spiral?
We may complain and grow fearful for our lives and for our children's safety, but it is our collective responsibility, not our guilt, that needs to be recognized. In these desperate times, we desperately need legislation to assist in the early identification of children and adults who are at high risk of committing mayhem, and get some kind of help delivered to their doors, whatever the cost.
There are far too many privately owned guns in the nation to effectively reduce their use in psychotic attacks. There are, as most of us have been figuring out, far more crazy people, seriously crazy people, in every group than we used to believe. Believe it now.
As a nation, we have jealously guarded both our first amendment right to peaceably assemble, and our second amendment right to keep and bear arms. These two positive aspects of our national heritage are coming into increasing conflict. How long will you or anyone feel safe in a crowd that (statistically) must contain a few depressed people with fear, helplessness, self-hate, rage, and homicide blocking their minds?
Gun control, or perhaps more realistically an acceptably intelligent negotiated legislative effort leading to 'gun management' will be of some limited help.
We must focus our attention on matters of mental health, childhood education and safety from abuse, and job creation.

Sony Lowers The Last Of Us PS4 Price, Issuing Refunds To PSN Pre-Order Customers
Announced back in April, The Last of Us Remastered (which brings our 2013 game of the year to PlayStation 4) was announced with a $60 price tag. That price has since come down, and Sony is giving the difference back to those who have already pre-paid for the game online.
The fine print on the PlayStation Network says that pre-orders cannot be cancelled, nor can returns be transacted. Despite this, however, VP of publisher and developer relations at Sony Adam Boyes has responded to inquiry on twitter saying the money will be returned to those early adopters.
@klownboots @PlayStation @Naughty_Dog @AskPlayStation @yosp you should get a $10 refund in the next 5-7 days
— Adam Boyes (@amboyes) June 22, 2014
For more on The Last of Us' PlayStaiton 4 debut, head here and here.
[Source: @amboyes, via Joystiq]
Our Take
For a short period of time, it seemed like Sony was going to commit to its fine print, and not offer refunds to the early adopters A.K.A. the folks who are clearly the most excited and most supportive of the game coming to PlayStation 4. I don't know if it was just a miscommunication, or if Sony really did have to go back on its original decision, but I'm glad the people who paid for the game early are going to get that money back.

This autumn side dish ranks right up there with the best French Fridays with Dorie recipes thus far in cooking our way through Around My French Table. It was one I debated about even bothering with tonight, but the three gorgeous ingredients, and its uniqueness, simplicity, and rustic look won me over. I prepared it as a side dish (it could also be a first course), paired with a pan-roasted chicken breast, and I polished off the entire plate, right down to the last grape. Well, Trapper did help with a few bites of chicken and apple.
|endives, apples and grapes
I used small Fuji apples and substituted red grapes instead of green and thyme in place of rosemary. I halved one apple and quartered the other. The fruits and endive are cooked slowly in salted butter, and turned once halfway through, until they are soft and caramelized. The endive tastes amazing after it cooks and retains just a hint of bitterness. The apples and grapes are sweet and soft, but not mushy. I really encourage you to try this with roasted chicken or duck.
|Gorgeous colors
Dorie features the recipe on her blog, here, as a Thanksgiving side dish. She offers another variation, called Thanksgiving Squash and Apples, with wedges of pumpkin or squash, chestnuts, apple, grapes, and sage, drizzled warm maple syrup and topped with toasted pecans. I may try that version sometime, but I'm definitely adding tonight's version to my fall and winter specialties and I will never look at endive the same way again.
If you've never put cooked endive at the top of your favorites list,
or if you've never even cooked endive,
it's probably because you didn't have this recipe to turn to.
-Dorie Greenspan
|Thursday night never tasted so good!

I'm currently reading "SQL and Relational Theory" by C.J. Date. And although I'm quite far in the book, I've got a few basic questions. I want to know what the term "logical difference" means, The book does try to explain the term with examples, but does not really explain what it means (or maybe I'm understanding it wrong??)
Here is a small part from the book:
I've said that there's a logical difference between a relation and a picture of a relation. The concept of logical difference derives from a dictum of Wittgenstein's:
- All logical differences are big differences.
I know what a logical difference means intuitively, I know what the difference is between a relation and a picture of a relation. What I want is a formal-like definition of the concept of a "logical difference" so I have a good idea of what it means.

Speed Week: the Brits fly south
There was the dawn. A dreary early Saturday morning in a summer whose signature theme is a flat grey sky the colour of a dead TV, the tempearature lurking around a sullen 12 degrees, lazily non-committal given that June is firmly ensconced in the calendar. But today it's impossible to be depressed by unimaginative weather. Today we kick off the TG Speed Week, and a road trip beckons in some of the best fast cars in the world. A grin is not hard to find.
We have been given a location in mid-France to aim for, and with other TG staff flying off in a multitude of European directions to collect the various cars required, I'm corralling the group departing from the UK. We have until Sunday night to rendezvous, but more of that later. In the meantime, I arrive early at the UK kick-off point – Eurotunnel's Folkestone terminal – having bounced out of bed at 4am in order to take the long way down. The reason why is quietly clicking itself cool in a corner parking bay: an acid yellow, 616bhp McLaren Spider. There are worse reasons to get up early.

Freer access to global markets and investment is helping to ensure resilient growth in the Asia-Pacific and buoy global trade. This is helping many economies in the region to grow domestic demand and pave the way for rebalancing, according to Alan Bollard, the APEC Secretariat's Executive Director.
But Bollard cautioned that inadequate connectivity could act as a brake on the region's growth prospects as demand outstrips existing infrastructure. This is leading APEC economies to put connectivity high on the agenda, he said recently at a symposium on the issue hosted by the Institute for Southeast Asian Studies in Singapore.
"Regional Integration of markets, production, capital and skilled labor have been growing," Bollard explained. This is part of a broader pattern of more integrated production, and the phenomenon of global supply chain management."
"At the same time, as production processes are changing we are seeing the growth of middle classes and urbanisation accompanied by demographic tightening," he added. "These trends are putting new demands on physical and social infrastructure."
APEC member economies are addressing these concerns by expanding their efforts to reduce behind-the-border barriers to trade and investment, and enhance the region's business environment.
Based on the inputs from business and government sectors, APEC has identified eight critical supply chain chokepoints together with the actions to address them.
"Addressing such issues as regulatory impediments, customs ineffectiveness and inadequate transportation networks will make a difference for the companies that ship products and for the consumers who will find more competitive prices and better varieties in their stores," Bollard said.
The implementation of APEC's agenda on connectivity needs to be carried out at a level that is broad enough to engage all members, he noted.
This includes work towards the 2015 target of a ten percent improvement in the region's supply chain performance, in terms of time, cost and uncertainty. A mid-term assessment is being prepared ahead of a meeting of APEC economies in April in Surabaya, Indonesia.
"There are different connectivity issues at the APEC level," said Bollard. "As we progress into the Indonesia year, APEC Senior Officials will be looking more closely at the topic of connectivity and deciding how it best fits in with APEC values."

I have been working on the Purl Bee team for only a short while (6 months, last week!), but the Purl Bee has had a place in my life for years. I have been a faithful reader and follower of the blog almost since its creation! My crafting bag of tricks is filled with techniques picked up from this very site. I can remember my first foray into hand hemming with Page's beautiful Rolled Hem Handkerchiefs, just as I remember feeling that Whitney was holding my hand right through my very first pair of socks, the Pom Pom Socklets.
The Pom Pom Socklets were my first hand-knit socks, and to this day, they remain my favorite! Whitney describes the pattern as being perfect for beginner sock knitters and short attention span knitters. How right she is! The first time I knit them, all my fears and insecurities about sock knitting flew out the window. Now these little socks are my go-to pattern for last minute gifts or for short subway rides. I have turned to this pattern again and again due to its simple construction and super friendly instructions.
So when I set my eyes on the new Purl-tastic color of Anzula's Squishy, Hyacinth, I knew exactly what I was going to knit: my old friend, the Pom Pom Socklets in Hyacinth and Natural. Squishy has been a Purl Soho favorite for a little over a year now. Joelle used it to make her 'Squishy' Log Cabin Baby Blanket and her Stirrup Socks, and Whitney used it to knit her Ribbed Hand Warmers, but I still can't help thinking of Squishy as the new kid on the block. I am constantly astonished by how amazing it is, as if I am encountering it for the first time, every time. Its lofty spin of merino and cashmere not only makes it sumptuous to wear, but also luscious to knit. Plus, Squishy comes in a range of gorgeous hand dyed colors, from petal soft Dusty Rose to high octane Ducky to toasty warm Coco.
Two of these generous 385-yard-skeins (one in each color) are enough for four pairs of Pom Pom Socklets as long as you are conservative with your tails and pom poms. Worst case scenario, you'll end up with three socks in each color to mix and match at your whim! Hope y'all enjoy these socks as much as I do. Thanks for the great pattern, Whitney! To make your own pair visit Whitney's original Pom Pom Socklets post by clicking here. -Laura

People!!!! I finally finished the master bedroom. As in 99.9% complete. Seriously, I never thought I would get done. Time is not my friend these days for completing projects, and having 2 kids under 5 is a little challenging as well. I am so happy to be at the end of this though. The fact that we are in desperate need of a bigger home has been a good push to finish this up. We are 6 people living in a 3 bedroom home. That in and of itself is really not an issue…I have no problem with kids sharing rooms. The problem is that we have a big age gap between the 2 sets of kids and the bedrooms we have are SMALL. So after all this time, here is the post where I put together my plans for the room. I think I did a fairly good job sticking to the color scheme and not changing my mind 20 times during the process. Obviously there are components that I did not complete and I am ok with that. At this point, it is sale ready and once we move into a new home I can add new items like lights and rugs. Although my mood board looks much different and I was not able to include all of the elements I had hoped, I like how things turned out.
Here is my mood board:
And here is the completed room!
I think my favorite part is curtains and the prints above the bed. I made the curtains from clearance table cloths from Target. I should mention that I bought the curtain rods from IKEA a couple of years ago and never bothered to measure before I purchased them and they ended up being too short. Curtains should be hung high and wide – but these guys are hung with what I have. Oops!
The prints were free from On Sutton Place, the cutest prints I swear! I have been really into watercolor lately.…… Can you believe those frames are Dollar General frames for 6 bucks??? I feel like I hit the jackpot with those. They are not top quality, but you really can't tell and they are matted. I made a placemat pillow a while back, and that made its way to the bed as well as another placemat pillow I made for the room. That cute little pillow came from RedEnvelope and you can read about how that pillow came to rest on our bed here. (You can see a complete link up at the bottom of the post on where each element came from that I have blogged about).
I probably should have pulled the bed rail down for pics, but honestly I didn't have the energy to take it out and put it back. That's just life in our home. The white picture frames on the floor were planned to be on the wall above the dog crates, but I am not sure if I will do that since have moved those shelves there. I am not sold on the shelves, but I really have nowhere else to put it. It actually gives me somewhere to keep a couple of items I have been tucking away in drawers but need easier access to (read – cloth diapers!!!!!!!!!!). That framed piece above the light switch is a shadow box that I threw some pretty paper in and some arrows cut on my Silhouette Portrait. It was difficult to get the paper smooth since there was a velvet fabric over the back piece, so I will need to replace it with fabric at some point.
The bookcase holds the dog's sweaters in the black container, while the cubbies under that hold kids books. The bottom shelf has both little ones shoes. Ashton does a stellar job of taking his shoes off daily and putting in his cubby. The owls above that bookcase were a Goodwill find and an awesome score from the Maple festival years ago. The tree was painted by Hannah – I told her when she painted it I was framing it, lol, I don't think she believed me.
Over on the tall dresser is the DIY canvas that I made with the kids. I added some letters for Jeff and I as well as a $1 frame with pretty scrapbook paper. Believe it or not, I found that little yellow bird at Michael's for $2!! He and his big brother (who lives in the living room) really helped me discover what colors I want to bring into my home.
Now the long dresser in the room still needs some help since that mirror should be sitting on top of it. I have somehow lost the pieces to hang it, so I have been debating hanging it on the wall or using some scrap wood to mount it to the dresser. I am not usually a fan of the attached mirrors like this, but right now we are working with what we have. My plan had been to refinish a Craigslist find that I picked up for my birthday about 3 years ago, but that is currently sitting in storage. These pieces are my parents, and once we move I will be replacing them with items that I can make work for us a little better. I am so glad to have them right now though! I just added some pictures and odds and ends I have picked up over the years. The flowers are from my wedding bouquet. I have plans for the glass dish, but we shall see how those plans come along. I have really liked the succulent trend, and that dish would be an awesome place to make that happen. I added the ring holder last..it was a quick project from scrap book paper, a dollar frame and a tea cup hook. Now maybe I will remember to wear my wedding rings???
For the sake of full disclosure, the 2 doors are the closet and master bath. The closet is no frills but functional, and the master bathroom is actually a very nice room. The only issue I have with it is the color scheme. That room was completed prior to my revelation that I didn't want to stick with browns. I couldn't justify the expense of redoing it since it was a nicely put together room already. And the kiddos LOVE that tub – oh look…they are in there now .
So that wraps it up. I have to say, it has come miles, and where it stayed for so long is very frustrating, but it is such a relief to be done!
And a little before/after action:
I found some more before pics and thought it would be a nice comparison. Here is a fun embarrassing photo – the first week we moved in. WOW what a mess!!!
And then the arrangement prior to the above "before" photo. The crib used to reside below that ASM. 🙂 My little man's cute setup that he never used. lol

This first article ran with no title and was just one of many paragraphs under the heading "The City"
|The Bismarck Daily Herald, December 31, 1897
"It is said that a change of venue may be asked for in the Villers case when it is called in district court at Jamestown next week, if any difficulty is experienced in securing a jury. Villers' counsel would naturally prefer a trial in some other county of the district more remote from the scene of the crime with which he is charge, and where less pronounced opinions have been formed, but if it appears that a fair trial can be obtained it is said that Attorney Ellsworth will not seek to unnecessarily delay a verdict being reached"
Well, of COURSE he would want the trial in a different venue where less pronounced opinions have been formed! Who wouldn't!?! OK...I'm done...
"The Villers Trial
|The Bismarck Daily Herald, January 12, 1898
The taking of evidence in the trial of Martin J. Villers the prisoner from the penitentiary who is on trial at Jamestown, for the murder of August Ttromer, began in that city yesterday morning. The first witness called by the state was the coroner, Dr. Baldwin, who testified to the inquiry which had been held over the remains of Tromer discoverd in a field, and who stated that in his opinion death had been caused by a blow on the head from a blunt instrument, dealt with a great deal of violence. The different exhibits in the case were identified by the coroner, they being a portion of the scalp with a little of the hair attached, a portion of the skull, to which the scalp was sttached, the latter being still bloody and discolored, pieces of the clothing of the murdered man, and the pipe, knife, and other articles found with the body. Another exhibit in the case is the pocket handkerchief, knotted about the neck of the dead man by his wife before he left home, the knot having been identified by her. The second witness in the case was Mrs. Tromer, the wife of the murdered man, who testified that she last saw her husband on the 14th of September, 1894, the time he left home with Villers. She told how he was dressed. An objection was made to her testimony by the defense, and during its argument, she fainted away, and upon her recovery went into violent hysterics, and the feeling in the court room was intense. In the afternoon Mrs. Tromer had to be carried into court in an invalid chair and identified the handkercheif, clothing and some of the articles worn by the dead man."
She faints during an objections? I object! Actually I would have wanted to slap her. I've got little tolerance for silly, hysterical people. Talk about melodrama! Maybe that's why Villers tried to kill her years before. OK that wasn't nice, and I'm biased...but if you were watching this in a nice little fictional world of CSI, wouldn't you say the same?
Soon we'll be onto the documents of this case. They are more challenging for me to transcribe. My wonderful, darling husband got me several early Christmas presents, to include a new all-in-one printer so I can now scan legal documents. Can't wait!
