Another free agent surprise: Lance Stephenson to Charlotte
Already the defending champs in the East lost their best player when LeBron James returned to Cleveland.
Now the team that lost in the Eastern Conference finals has lost a starter. Indiana shooting guard Lance Stephenson reportedly agreed to join the Charlotte Hornets for $27 million over three years.
There were reports the Pacers offered Stephenson a similar annual salary over four seasons, but for some reason, the two sides couldn't agree.
It's tough to say how much this move helps the Hornets. They're looking at a guard rotation of Stephenson, Kemba Walker and Gerald Henderson. The front line has Al Jefferson, Michael Kidd-Gilchrist, Cody Zeller, rookie Noah Vonleh and free-agent addition Marvin Williams. Oh, and Bismack Biyombo if he ever becomes a player.
Is that group ready to step up from seventh place in the East? Maybe.
For the Pacers, they probably needed to shake things up a little after the last year's stumble to the finish. Right now, though, Indiana is looking at a starting backcourt of George Hill and C.J. Miles. That doesn't sound good.

Comedy ventriloquist to open Dickens' 10th season
Those looking to something fun and different this Valentine's Day weekend may want to consider bringing their loved-one to Dickens Parlour Theatre — but be careful, the theater's management warned, as "Mr. Goodwood has an eye for the ladies!"
Mr. Goodwood is the "102-year-old" sidekick of ventriloquist Ken Huff. Together, they form a comedy duo that will aim to have people laughing all night long.
"Mr. Goodwood credits 'chasing the ladies, but never catching them!' for keeping him young and in good physical shape. So, watch your girlfriend or wife, because Mr. Goodwood certainly will make a pass at her. Additionally, he has many thoughts and comments on today's news and events, McDonald's and just being old!"
Ken Huff and Mr. Goodwood will open Dickens Parlour Theatre's 10th season on Friday and Saturday night, Feb. 15 and 16. Shows will begin, as usual, at 7 p.m.
Huff, a retired 20-year U.S. Air Force veteran, and Mr. Goodwood have been performing, flirting and entertaining audiences all over the world for the past 30 years.
After graduating from Martin Van Buren High School in New York City, Huff enlisted in the Air Force and was a contract specialist. While in the Air Force, he and his partner, Mr. Goodwood, traveled all over Europe with the Air Force's Tops in Blue, an entertaining road-show troupe. He retired from military service in October 1998, as a technical sergeant. After a short time in a government probation and parole job, he decided to perform with Mr. Goodwood fulltime.
Residing in Seaford, Huff performs all over the Delmarva Peninsula. With the recent success of ventriloquists including Terry Frator and Darcy Lynne on "America's Got Talent," demand for the act has increased tremendously, they said. The Ken Huff and Mr. Goodwood Comedy Show is considered appropriate for all ages, they noted.
This is their first time performing at Dickens Parlour Theatre in Millville Tickets cost $26 for adults or $18 for children, and can be purchased by phone at (302) 829-1071 or online at www.dptmagic.com.

Hi- just got finished reading Darwins Radio and I found the descriptions of experiencing a migraine were so accurate! I am a sufferer and have never read such an apt account of what it is like. Thanks for putting that out there for people to read and maybe better understand. PS Eon is one of my favorite books ever!
Posted by Greg Bear on 05/31/2018
I've never had to deal with migraine pain, but my son Erik experienced it regularly when he was younger. Sympathies and thanks for the message, Laura!
Posted by Arqel on 06/08/2018
Greg, did you find out what caused his migraines?...or any change correlation/
Posted by Greg Bear on 06/08/2018
We did not. But they're much reduced now, thankfully.

EU Commissioner for International Cooperation and Development, NevenMimica, said: "This new package illustrates how the EU Trust Fund provides sustainable solutions to address instability and lack of economic opportunities, as they are two main root causes of forced displacement in the Horn of Africa. By promoting peace, stability and job creation, these new actions will help create alternatives for people to improve their lives to ensure that migration can become a choice for people, and not a necessity."
Fifth package of actions in the Horn of Africa under the EU Trust Fund
The package of actions announced today consists of:
- The regional project "Promoting Peace and Stability in the Horn of Africa Region" (€40 million) covers all countries in the Horn of Africa and aims to contribute to achieving sustainable peace, security and stability to improve economic integration and development. The project will enhance the capacity of IGAD and national governments of the region in key areas of peacebuilding. This will be done for example by improving early warning and response mechanisms or by countering transnational organised crime such as trafficking and smuggling.
- The new "Kenya-EU Partnership for the implementation of the Kenya CVE strategy " (€5 million) will support Kenya in improving the implementation of its recently adopted National Strategy to Counter Violent Extremism. The aim is to prevent and counter violent extremism in an efficient and inclusive way, and in full respect of human rights.
- Two further projects build upon ongoing support to the people in Sudan. A project in North Darfur, "Wadi El Ku Integrated Catchment Management Project (Phase 2)" (€10 million), will directly target 80,000 smallholder producers and indirectly benefit the 700,000 people dependent on the Wadi El Ku catchment, by strengthening rural livelihoods through the inclusive and sustainable management of water resources.
A second project is a "Technical Cooperation Facility for Sudan 2018 – 2020″ (€4 million) to provide monitoring, assessments, specific studies and other technical assistance to support the sound implementation of the €100 million Special Measure for Sudan channelled through the EU Trust Fund.
These actions build on previous packages of actions worth €606 million (approved in packages of €253 million, €117 million, €66.5 million and €170 million) committed under the EU Trust Fund since December 2015 aimed at providing regional sustainable solutions to irregular migration and forced displacement. They were approved by the operational committee of the EU Trust Fund for Africa.
The European Commission launched an "Emergency Trust Fund for stability and addressing root causes of irregular migration and displaced persons in Africa" at the Valletta migration summit in November 2015. The Fund amounts to €2.5 billion from the EU budget and European Development Fund, combined with contributions from EU Member States and other donors. The aim of the EU Trust Fund for Africa is to address the root causes of instability and irregular migration and to contribute to good migration management. The bulk of its resources are dedicated to the creation of jobs and economic development, especially for young people and women in local communities, with a focus on vocational training and the creation of micro and small enterprises

As for the Farmers show, it's certainly a graphic demo of the magnetic attraction of Auckland. Only four of the 20 artists on show were actually born in the city (that's only one more than the number who were born outside NZ) but 65 percent of them live there. And Elam has had nearly a clean sweep with all but three of the 20 artists having graduated from or teaching there.
Sometimes it's the public programmes that clarify an exhibition's intentions. Freedom Famers quirky title and poppy presentation come together around something called "creative living". The links back to the 1970s (the current hot curatorial decade) and guides like the Whole Earth Catalog will be made material on 1 December via an "Ideas Market" with beer brewing and composting.
In this out pouring of utopian alternatives viewers may be surprised to find much of the actual work in the exhibition is dystopian to the point of despair. On the other hand, as writer Rose Lovejoy once dryly noted, "Every dystopia is masked by a utopia."

The River Thames above Oxford is mostly a stream running between fields, sometimes acting as the field boundary, often dry (when it's stopped raining for a couple of weeks) and occasionally left to wend across the fields without much interest. There is a body of thought which says that this innocent rippling stream should be called the Isis.
Below Oxford, the river rapidly becomes smooth and broad. Below Reading, once fed by the Kennet's waters from Newbury and Marlborough, it has a stately bulk. This is the Old Father in earnest.
The village of Cookham, twenty-odd miles below Reading and about halfway between Marlow and Maidenhead, is a brick and flint affair - the standard style for communities on the Thames between Reading and Maidenhead. It is centred on the inside of a curve in the river, a sensible distance back from the actual water. It has expanded along two arms - one northwards up the road to the Thames and on to Bourne End and the other westwards up the road to a satellite village, which the map calls Cookham Rise, around the railway station.
It is one of the richest and more expensive places to live in the country, being fairly convenient for London but off the general beaten track of the Great Western Mainline and the M4. The Thames is no longer the transport artery that it once was, so life is able to claim to be peaceful.
It was this length of the Thames, seen here looking east at the A4094 crossing the Thames at the north end of the village, that saw the writer of the Victorian travel novel called Three Men in a Boat, Jerome K. Jerome, and two of his friends try sailing one summer evening, the wind having unexpectedly come out in their favour. With the river broad, wide and smooth, they sailed up the golden waters into the sunset, skimming across the waters towards Marlow, with ahead of them an old punt containing three fishermen silhouetted against the orange sky.

Book form: pdf
Genre: YA sci-fi/fantasy
Target audience: fans of modern fairy tale retellings
The first part of the series, Cinder was reviewed by me some time ago; my review can be found here. If you haven't read that one you might be mildly spoiled by the synopsis – consider yourself warned.
When young Scarlet Benoit gets a message informing her that the police officially closed the investigation concerning her missing grandmother she is really angry. She decides to take the matters into her hands and go find the elderly lady on her own. While looking for possible clues she meets a young street fighter, Wolf whose hand is adorned by a strange numeric tattoo. Soon enough it becomes obvious that Wolf may have information as to her grandmother's whereabouts. Scarlet is loath to trust a complete stranger but he is the only one who knows something and is willing to help. They travel to Paris by train and during that journey Scarlet finds herselfs inexplicably drawn to Wolf, and he to her (translation: after a very short period of teenage awkwardness they make out like mad bunnies).
Meanwhile Cinder (her full story was told in the first part) has broken out of the space prison, helped by one Carswell Thorne – a thief, a womanizer, a liar and a swaggering buffoon (all things considered, your average human male specimen ;p). His only advantage seems to be a stolen ship, currently under his 'command' – it is the only way of space transport available if you want to return to Earth. Cinder of course returns just to get mixed into the mayhem created by our lovely Lunar Queen Levana who wants to marry the young emperor Kai and rule the Moon and the Earth. Cinder's path crosses with that of Scarlet whose grand-mere was far more important than anybody would have imagined and played a role in rescuing little Lunar princess Selena. So Cinder herself. Will they be able to avoid capture?
|What I liked:
Firstly and foremostly I liked the fact that the author tried to combine Cinderella and Little Red Riding Hood into one cohesive story. The narration was well-paced and I managed to finish the novel in two evenings – it was a fun ride although with three different POVs which only at the end merged into one.
From the two main heroines I liked Cinder better; maybe because I got to like her in the first installment so much, maybe because Scarlet was given simply too little narration time, as she had to share her story with Cinder whereas our cyborg girl had a whole book at her disposal.
Finally I liked the fact that this part was set in the old good Europe. Not that I didn't like the New Beijing in the previous part but a change of scenery is always welcome.
|What I didn't like:
The more I read the more I heard 'Star Wars' music theme in my head because, in my opinion, the whole tale stopped sounding like a variation of the Little Red Riding Hood very soon and started copying one of those space operas. Copying HARD, like at every turn. Such a premise can be hardly called original, can't it? Cinder is a Lunar princess in exile (Leia anyone?) whose mental 'powers' equal those of the Jedi knights; she is helped by Carswell who not only owns a ship but also thinks he is the God's gift to womankind in a leather jacket (Han Solo?) and an mouthy android Iko ( a female equivalent of C-3PO if I remember the name right). The evil, power-crazy Queen Levana with her band of sadistic thaumaturgs would make Darth Vader and other lords Siths clap and cheer. As you see it was definitely worse than while reading Cinder.
Not to mention the insta-love between Scarlet and Wolf/Ze'ev which, due to its incredible speed, was able to give me a bout of gut-turning sea sickness – they meet, they kiss and, after just one day, boys and girls, they cannot live without each other even if he is a kind of a beast (Chewbacca?) and she is…well, a girl with a mission. And he lied to her. Repeatedly. From the very beginning. Apologizing every now and then. Yeah…animal magnetism I suppose?
The cover is rather bland – you have to guess what it really shows. A dress? A cloak? A shawl? A flag? Something else?
|Final verdict:
Not the worst YA fantasy I've ever read but I liked the first part, Cinder better.Still I think I will continue reading this series out of sheer curiosity. You see, Rapunzel will join us in the third book, Cress, and being a huge fan of this lady of long, fabulous hair, I will not rest until it is in my greedy, hands. I also hope there will be no more such abusive relationships as that of Scarlet and her Wolf.

HUNTLEY – A former Huntley Fire Protection District chief who had more than two years left on his six-figure contract gave up his rank before retiring amid an investigation.
Ken Caudle, who was put on administrative leave in the summer, has retired from the district.
The former fire chief continued to get his $119,240 salary while on leave until he retired Jan. 5, Fire Chief Scott Ravagnie said.
"The case is closed," Ravagnie said, declining to comment further on details of the investigation.
Caudle resigned as fire chief Aug. 15 and returned to the rank of battalion chief before being placed on paid administrative leave "pending the outcome of an ongoing investigation," according to district documents obtained through a Freedom of Information Act request.
Officials have not said what they were investigating.
When asked Thursday about why he retired, Caudle said, "It was time to retire, and there was no reason for it."
Former Fire Chief Jim Saletta, who now is a district trustee, said the fire district's board is meeting at 5:30 p.m. Tuesday at the annex building, 11118 Main St., to vote on Caudle's retirement.
"We're not going to comment on [the results of the investigation]," Saletta said. "... At this point, I would assume that we would accept his retirement."
Caudle, who was 49 years old at the time he was placed on leave, said he does not plan on taking any other jobs right now, and he is "just enjoying retirement."
Before he stepped down, a contract for Caudle in his role as fire chief took effect in May and was set to run through April 2020, district documents show.
The Northwest Herald submitted a Freedom of Information Act request Thursday seeking all documents regarding the investigation into Caudle.
Attempts to reach district board President Milford Brown on Thursday were not successful.

The Robots Haven't Taken Over The Stock Market (Yet)
And after the longest weather-related closure in more than a century, the New York Stock Exchange reopened to cheers yesterday, running on generator power.
MONTAGNE: As Jacob Goldstein of our Planet Money team explains, the market's two-day shutdown was a reminder that the financial world is not yet an entirely digital realm.
JACOB GOLDSTEIN, BYLINE: There's this narrative you hear a lot these days about how the stock market now is just computers making automated trades with other computers, about how the new Wall Street is a bundle of fiber optic cables headed for a server in, say, Kansas City. And so as the storm headed for the East Coast on Sunday, New York Stock Exchange officials made a decision: The trading floor would be closed Monday, but the market would be open as an electronic exchange - no traders in bright-colored vests waving their arms around in a big room, just computers talking to each other.
Other big stock exchanges always operate this way, but financial firms did not like this decision. For one thing, the New York Stock Exchange has never operated as an electronic-only exchange. Tom Price is the head of operations at SIFMA, a financial services trade group. He says there's an even more important reason financial firms wanted the market to be closed.
TOM PRICE: I think absolutely, unequivocally the major concern was about safety for individuals coming into Downtown Manhattan and the potential for them to be in harm's way.
GOLDSTEIN: So, Sunday night, officials at the New York Stock Exchange changed their minds. Along with the leaders of the other major U.S. exchanges, they shut down all stock trading on Monday and Tuesday. There is a lot of truth to that narrative about computers taking over the market. Most trades do occur on all electronic exchanges. Computers do make lots of super-fast trades with other computers.
But this week's shutdown is a reminder that Wall Street is not just a metaphor. It's an actual street that sits in the center of a financial district where tens of thousands of people go to work every day. And for now, anyway, if those people can't get to work, the financial system can't function. Jacob Goldstein, NPR News.

4th ILA International Day of Listening
This year's IDL theme is based on listening first for similarities – what we have in common. That's what we mean by "listen for common ground". Once two people have found common ground and priorities (and are surprised by the number of them), it is far easier to discuss differences, points of disagreement or conflict, in a mature and respectful way.
We'll help you to achieve this goal.
Below is a description of suggested activities for preparing for this year's IDL.
June 19: Partner with another person, introduce yourselves, and then find three things you have in common—just a get-to-know-you or become better acquainted activity that serves as a base for the next date.
July 19: Small groups or a larger group should focus on what they have in common regarding a not-too-controversial topic. So, it could be members of the first groups from June 19 getting together to address a mildly controversial topic, such as choosing a family vacation or setting a group goal, or discussing improvements to the break room at work, or selecting a community project, etc.
August 19: Discussion of what group members (maybe from previous group meetings) have in common regarding a controversial topic, such as immigration, healthcare, taxes, business issues, community issues, family issues, personal issues, or other real problems. But rather than getting right to where the disagreements are, the group lays a groundwork of values, characteristics, goals, etc., that they share (i.e., "We all want to solve this problem," or "We all want to improve access to healthcare.)
September 19 (IDL): Discussion of a controversial topic—exploring solutions—based on what we have in common. On this day, we get down to the meat of the issue. Start with what we have in common and then explore where the differences are, how can we solve the problem in a way that considers both sides, how can we mitigate any negative impacts that the solutions might have, etc. The goal will be to create real solutions to real (and difficult and complex) problems.
Don't have the time to read everything now?
Just follow the red-border boxes like this one below to get straight to the suggested exercises and their explanations!
What are your plans?
A very special date!

Macau Billionaire Poker Summer Showdown: The Largest Guaranteed Prize Pool in Asia!
All eyes may be on the 2017 WSOP in Las Vegas at the moment, but come late July and the Macau Billionaire Poker Summer Showdown will be the place to be.
Phil Ivey, real name Phillip Dennis Ivey Jr. is widely regarded as one of the best poker players to ever grace this earth. His massive personality and phenomenal poker skills have taken him to the top of the poker world throughout the past 20 years. To try your hand at becoming one of the best, we suggest Carbon Poker for USA players. He was born in Riverside, California on Feburary 1st 1976, and started playing poker around his twenties were he got his first nickname "No Home Jerome" come from the ID he used to play at the local casino and later on he got the nickname "Tiger Woods of Poker".
It was from here Ivey started to hone his skills and slowly start to become noticed as a very scary opponent.
"The Corporation" vs Andrew Beal
Perhaps one of the most notable stories surrounding Ivey's poker career is that of his Heads Up battle with billionaire banker Andrew Beal back in 2006. According to several reports around that time, Ivey and Beal played three days of poker against each other, with Ivey coming out on top with a cool $16.6m profit. This whole saga stemmed from an ongoing battle between Beal and several top players for many years before that, in which the players then decided to club together, coin themselves 'The Corporation' and take on Beal. It was also reported that the $16.6m win meant that 'The Corporation' had won back $10m they had lost to Beal previously and added the $6.6m to their bankroll as a whole.
World Series of Poker and World Poker Tour
Phil Ivey have had a glorious poker carrier having won ten World Series of Poker (WSOP) bracelets as well as one World Poker Tour (WPT) Final and also appearing nine times at the final table.
Ivey was named Poker Players of the Year by "All In Magazine" in 2005 and 2009
As TheHendonMob reports Phil Ivey has accumulated more than 23 million dollars from tournaments alone, and over $10m in online winnings. A big percentage of this money came from other regular high stakes players such as Patrik Antonius, Viktor Blom, and Tom Dwan.

Poker fans hoping to see Phil Ivey enter some WSOP events this summer may get their wish as Ivey was recently photographed in Bobby's Room.
Well-known pro Jimmy Fricke tweeted about the incident and sparking a lot of interest in who the party on the receiving end might have been…
The World Series of Poker released a list of the ten finalists under consideration for the 2017 class of the Poker Hall of Fame.
Paul Phua is inviting viewers and followers to prepare their own questions for the biggest names in the game.
Ivey and attorney Richard Spearman again attempted to win almost $10 million in cash that Ivey and a companion "earned" at the Punto Banco tables in 2012.
Phil Ivey and Dave 'Devilfish' Ulliott were named as the 53rd and 54th inductees into the Poker Hall of Fame.
Viktor Blom seems to be back in the saddle playing $200/400 PLO and limit triple draw and Omaha eights-or-better at $1k/$2k limits.
It came as a huge shock last year when the $250,000 Aussie Millions Challenge failed to materialize, and this year it has been left out of the festival's schedule entirely.
When it comes to poker, Finland has produced many of the finest online players in the game's history.

Still hoping for the Wembley box set. Those shows were special and MJ brought some extra energy each time.
July 14th 1988
23rd August 1992
July 12th 1997
Jam @ Wembley might be one of Michaels best ever tour performances
^Black Or White is outstanding too.
A lipsync concert has little to no beneficial value in terms of reputation enhancement in 2020.
People may have accepted lipsync in the 80s and early 90s but even in 97 people were criticising big stars for doing it. In 2020 it's just not accepted at all.
If they release that show they are only going to invite a whole load of negativity about MJ as a performer and it's likely to do more harm than good IMO. Oh and it's been available on the net for years already. Not even the fans care about it!
HIStory Munich 1997 Blu-ray release - if that's what's gonna be released - would be the first MJ release I will not want to buy...
https://www.youtube.com/user/Ahess/videos - me dancing MJ - many years ago.
I would be really glad if you rated or/and commented the videos. Thanks
I hope they use different camera angles at least so its not exactly the same.
Sony leak years ago said it's Prague concert, the opening date of HIStory tour, as I remembered.

First, I must explain what pleasure the browsing experience can be. Then I will let you know ways to make surfing your lifestyle and how you can surf life in just about all you do in Fort Lauderdale FL Rat Removal.
We surfed as a household.
We graduated from bodysurfing to riding canvas air beds, homemade skimboards, paddleboards and finally to surfboards. 1 thing you probably never heard of is surfing a pillow case full of air. We did this too. We'd wet the pillow case and the jog down the shore to fill it with air, turning the end into a knot to hold the air in the case for a single wave.
When we first started to ride surfboards, we just surfed longboards, which were normally 10 ft and more. We did not know about wetsuits, leashes, and because of this we were confined to shores where there were no rocks on the shore unless we wanted to fix the dings caused when the fiber glassed board struck the stones. If we were lucky, another surfer would run and try to grab our surfboard until it hit the rocks. Today, wherever there's a wave, it'll be surfed.
It was not unusual to take off on a wave and have as many as 5 of the fellow surfers on the same wave. There wasn't any pressure to not share. Everyone was always trying to outdo their friends by trying new kinds of pullouts, walking into the nose, turns, etc..
We discussed wax, towels, and thoughts.
Maybe this free soul was brought to us from Hawaii initially by Duke Kahanamoku. He attracted the Aloha Spirit to the beaches of California and the rest of the world.
It will likely make you mad. I have seen golfers get so mad that they throw or break their golf club after a poor shot.
Well, this will not occur in surfing. You may fall from your board and get wiped out, but it's fun. You paddle out and catch another wave.
Having fun? I think that whatever you're doing you ought to enjoy, just like you like surfing. As I said, it's a soul that you should and will learn how to carry over to your relationships and your job.
Surfing is something which could sure help you do so. Surfing gives you a sense of freedom. It's a terrific method of relieving tension and stress, as you get a great physical workout. Surfing enhances the quality of someone's life.
Surfing is really an enjoyable sport. There are a myriad of amateur competitions or you may treat it like a game each day you surf though you're not in a competition against others. Even though it's normally an individual action, it's very seldom that you're alone. You're normally with your surfing friends and friends either riding the waves or hanging out on the shore. It's a happy time.
Surfing contributes to beach parties, barbeques, and other social occasions. You build a new set of friends who enjoy doing the exact same thing as you do. It's a mellow lifestyle which you carry over to what that you do. Even though it can be aggressive, it's still mellow. You're in the water feeling the spray in your face, breathing the fresh air, and in a fantastic frame of mind.
Purchase a ukulele and learn how to play it. Get yourself a Woodie automobile or a fantastic surf vehicle. You might not should wear a tie to work? All these things go with browsing.
Take these feelings with you to the world around you and into your personal and business life and then you'll understand what it means to Surf Life. You will learn how to relax when you get into a challenging situation. You'll stop stressing out when somebody cuts you off on the freeway.

Book of the Month - a Sad Update
It's been six weeks.
Have I chosen what I'd make? Nope.
Do I have the energy to make a quilt from this book in October? Nope.
And now that new book is due back at the library, and back it will go. Originally, I thought it would inspire me to use up some of the stash that's overflowing under the quilting frame.
Thumbing through the book, I did fall in love with Awesome Land,
and Stair Steps.
So what's held me back from starting in?
First, my own personal projects for fall. My head started in, the ideas flowed, and the time ticked away to bring those ideas to a complete quilt.
Second, a longarm machine quilting marathon last week - eight hours in one day. The quilt was huge, taking up my whole frame, and once I started in, it was hard to find a good stopping point. Sure, I was fine that day, but it took a toll the rest of the week.
Third, I really loved the color scheme Lissa used on Awesome Land. Having just gone through my oranges for Pumpkin Harvest, I knew I didn't have those lighter value, crisp prints. And I wasn't going shopping, nor was I excited about some other color scheme, so that one was out.
Fourth, I loved the scrappiness of Stair Steps, but at the moment, I'm just not in the mood to deal with all the little pieces. Too many other things are taking my attention.
So, there you have it. It's probably the first time I've featured a book and not made a quilt, but that's life. Of course, even though I didn't make anything, that doesn't prevent you from trying one of the patterns - and I hope you do.
Happy Quilting!

Oh I recognize some of those thoughts so well. Though your reasons for not beginning something sound so much more valid than my inertia! Thanks for this post.ReplyDelete
Humm all of this sounds very familiar!!! I do believe that we forgive you! Other things plus life does have its way of messing up our plans! Hope all is well! Have a great day and do not do what I do - Rest!ReplyDelete
So many times I've pulled out books from my personal library, looked through them, picked out projects, and that's where it ended. Sometimes it's just better to sit back, read through them, and rest. Thank you for the honest post, Susan!ReplyDelete
I've done something similar with a stack of fabrics. I'll pull out some fabrics that I think look great together and then they sit there because I can't decide what to make or in one case, I pulled a bunch of florals for a specific purpose, but when I got back to them, I couldn't remember what I was going to make. Too many projects, too much fabric, not enough time.ReplyDelete
Eight hours in one day? Yikes. That is intense. I think we can all relate to each of your explanations.ReplyDelete

Gold advances as investors extend fund-buying spree to 14 days
[SINGAPORE] Gold extended Friday's gain, even as the dollar strengthened, as investors increased holdings in exchange-traded funds for a 14th straight day, the longest buying streak since March 7.
Bullion for immediate delivery added 0.4 per cent to US$1,278.06 an ounce by 10:10 am in Singapore, after climbing 0.8 per cent on Friday, according to Bloomberg generic pricing.
The metal has rallied 20 per cent in 2016 as investors sought a haven from equity turmoil at the start of the year and as the Federal Reserve dialed back expectations for US interest-rate increases amid uncertainty over global growth. Holdings in ETFs rose 7.6 metric tons to 1,822.35 tons on Friday, the highest since December 2013, data compiled by Bloomberg show.
The Bloomberg Dollar Spot Index climbed as much as 0.1 per cent to extend Friday's 0.5 per cent advance. Gold usually moves inversely to the greenback.
The rise in ETF assets "is an indication that perhaps the speculative end of the market is getting wind of another move in the gold price to the upside," David Lennox, an analyst at Fat Prophets in Sydney, said by phone.

BRUSSELS — For the second day in a row, the European Union chastised Britain for being slow and unfocused in its approach to the Brexit divorce proceedings, which are entering their sixth month with precious little to show for them.
European Commission President Jean-Claude Juncker said Tuesday that after assessing the latest batch of position papers from London, "None of them give me any real satisfaction. So there are many questions that remain to be resolved."
Britain trigged the two-year negotiating window on March 29, then surprisingly called a snap election in which Prime Minister Theresa May lost her overall majority. Talks effectively only started in June.
The third round of high-level talks is ongoing this week and Juncker reinforced the comments of his chief negotiator Michel Barnier on Monday that the May's government is too slow out of the blocks and that key separation issues need to be settled before both sides can assess a future trade and political relationship. Britain is keen to have both in lockstep.
While British negotiator David Davis called for "flexibility and imagination" to move on all issues, Juncker said in some of his clearest comments so far, that "it must be made ultra-clear that we will not undertake any negotiation on the continuation of events" before the key divorce issues are settled first.
Juncker said that "we can't mix things up" and insisted "first resolve the past before imagining the future."
The EU wants to discuss the rights of citizens residing in each other's areas after the breakup, the situation on the Irish border and the outstanding bill Britain still has to pay before things can move on. There has been no decisive breakthrough on any of them so far.
The 27 other EU nations have said they will have to judge whether there is "sufficient progress" on those separation issues before talks on a future trade and political relationship can start.
Both sides are facing a March 2019 deadline to seal a deal to disentangle Britain from the EU and to broker the terms of their post-split relationship. The bulk of the negotiations need to wrap up in the fall of next year to allow for formal ratification by both sides.

Review: Good Natureby Erika Curtis- 89.1 The Point
"Good Nature" is the third studio album by alternative rock band Turnover. There are few similarities between "Good Nature" and the rest of the band's discography, however one constant throughout has been its work with producer Will Yip. Working out of Studio 4 in Pennsylvania, Yip has worked with other prominent figures in the alternative rock genre such as Balance and Composure, Tigers Jaw, and The Wonder Years. Apart from that lone fact, "Good Nature" is sonically and lyrically very different from the band's other albums. When news first broke that Turnover was working on a new album, many fans including myself wondered what this album would sound like. Since its two other albums were so different, it was not implausible that this third album would follow that trend (which it did.)
The first impression we get of "Good Nature" is the first single released, the opening track to the album, "Super Natural." Immediately you realize that this album is nothing like anything Turnover has released before. The track opens with a dreamy, reverb soaked guitar riff and then picks up tempo with an almost jazz-like bass line. Frontman Austin Getz adds to the vibe with warm vocals throughout. Lines such as "Painting you a pretty shade / Like you were a girl in a water color" and "Something supernatural / And I'm feeling super natural" show Getz speaking of love followed by "I don't know how but I can say / That I found my religion" show the state of peace he is in life and relationships.
"Sunshine Type" is the next single we get, and is the second track on the album. This track sounds very similar to "Super Natural," and in fact, much of the album is very similar, but they all retain aspects that are unique to each track. For example, what really stood out in this second track is the catchy bass line throughout, with layered guitars and catchy melodies. The theme I take away from this song is that you can try all you want to change life and nature, but at the end of the day we have no control over these things. This theme is solidified at the end of the song when in the background we faintly hear "After you know it's all a game then when it storms play in the rain," showing that while we don't have control of some things, that doesn't mean we can't enjoy them.
"Good Nature" is like nothing Turnover has released before and would be better classified in the indie-pop or surf-rock genre than the band's early work in the pop-punk scene. Also nothing like we've seen from them before, lyrically this album is more mature and strays away from teenage themes of heartbreak to more mature ideas such as finding peace with yourself and about not taking life too seriously. "Good Nature" is a solid album all the way through and is a perfect listen as we approach fall to get one last nostalgic taste of summer.

Glycosaminoglycans are important components of all extracellular matrices. One of the glycosaminoglycans is hyaluronan, which is ubiquitously distributed throughout the connective tissue. Hyaluronan is especially abundant in the skin, in which it is of both structural and functional importance. This study describes the localization and distribution of hyaluronan in the skin of healthy individuals and of 23 patients with insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus and various degrees of limited joint mobility. In normal skin, hyaluronan staining was seen in all layers but most prominently in the papillary dermis and the basement membrane zone. In the skin from diabetic patients with normal or only moderately restricted mobility of the hands (limited joint mobility grades 0 and 1), the distribution of hyaluronan was similar to that of normal skin. In the skin of patients with severe restriction in joint mobility (limited joint mobility grade 2) the staining pattern was significantly different with weak hyaluronan staining in the papillary dermis and the basement membrane zone almost devoid of hyaluronan. Moreover, an increased epidermal thickness in the latter patients was evident as well as a pronounced hyaluronan staining compared with normal epidermis.
Cutaneous reparative processes, including wound healing, are highly developed procedures in which a chain of actions occurs to reconstitute the function of the wounded tissue. To prevent a delayed or excessive reparative process it is important to understand how this procedure develops and is maintained. One of the major extracellular matrix components of the skin is the glycosaminoglycan hyaluronan (HA). HA contributes to an extracellular environment, which is permissive for cell motility and proliferation, features that may account for HA's unique properties observed in scarless foetal wound healing. The molecule is found at high concentration whenever proliferation, regeneration and repair of tissue occur.
The aims of the present studies were to analyse the distribution of HA and to investigate its possible role in various cutaneous conditions associated with an impaired reparative process like in scar tissue formation in healing wounds, changed skin characteristics in diabetes mellitus and proliferating activity in basal cell carcinomas.
Tissue biopsies were obtained from healthy human skin, type-I diabetic skin and various scar tissues. The samples were analysed in the light microscope with a hyaluronan-binding-probe, antibodies for collagen I, III, PCNA and Ki-67. Ultrastructural analyses were performed on the same tissue samples.
In normal skin HA was present mainly in the papillary dermis. In epidermis HA was located in between the keratinocytes in the spinous layer. In the different scar tissues the localization of HA varied, with an HA distribution in mature scar type resembling that in normal skin. In keloids the papillary dermis lacked HA, but the thickened epidermis contained more HA than the other scar types. Ultrastructural studies of keloids revealed an altered collagen structure in the dermal layers, with an abundance of thin collagen fibers in the reticular dermis and thicker collagen fibers in the papillary dermis. Furthermore, the keloids displayed epidermal changes, which involved the basement membrane (BM), exhibiting fewer hemidesmosomes, and an altered shape of desmosomes in the entire enlarged spinous layer. These alterations in epidermis are suggested to influence the hydrodynamic and cell regulatory properties of the wounded skin.
In diabetic patients, a reduced HA staining in the basement membrane zone was seen. The staining intensity of HA correlated to the physical properties of the skin reflected by their grades of limited joint mobility (LJM). Furthermore, the HA staining correlated with serum concentration of the HbA1c.
In basal cell carcinomas (BCC), HA occurred predominantly in the tumour stroma. The distribution was most intense in the highly developed superficial BCC type, and resembled that of the papillary dermis of normal skin. In contrast, in the infiltrative BCC type, the tumour stroma stained weakly in the infiltrative part of the tumour. Moreover, the surrounding dermal layer was deranged and devoid of HA. The findings suggest that the tumour stroma in superficial BCC causes a slow, well-regulated cell growth in which the tumour cells do not substantially disturb the normal skin function. In the infiltrative BCC type, the tumour cells cause a disintegration of the tumour stroma as well as the normal surrounding dermis, which permits further spreading of the tumour. In fact, the behaviour of the infiltrative BCC tumour, growing beyond its boundaries, resembles that of the keloid.
The mapping of the distribution of HA could be a useful tool for prognostic information, for evaluating the degree of progress and for deciding the choice of treatment in various diseases of the skin. In skin malignancies such as BCC it can be used to determine the radicality at the surgical excision of the tumour.
Keywords: Hyaluronan, scar tissue, diabetes mellitus, basal cell carcinoma, skin, wound healing
