Renew Your Wooden Floors
A few simple tips to revamp and gloss up your wooden floors
Do you have a beautiful, hidden gem in your home, waiting to be discovered? You never know what amazing hardwood floors are lurking beneath that mangy wall-to-wall carpeting, or what the full potential is of your current, tired-looking wooden floors. Once you do, you will be hugely and pleasantly surprised. With the right treatment and refinishing, you will boost your property value, and overhaul your interior without even trying.
People pay a small fortune to have bamboo, cork and wooden parquet flooring installed, which is a great investment, but many already have fantastic wooden floors in their homes and they don't really know the value of what they have. If you already have wooden floors, we think it's time for you flaunt them. Here are a few tips to renew the life of your hardwood floors:
If you have carpeting, you will need to remove it in sections and trash it. Once the wooden floor is exposed, you should check for protruding nails and hammer them down. These loose nails could mean loose floorboards.
Next, you need to clear the random dust that you pretended wasn't there, and the bits of plastic Xmas tree leaves, all of which blended perfectly with the old wood. Moving on, you need to clean, clean, clean; make sure the floor is super smooth and free of all old carpet backing, glue etc. Use a vacuum and mop afterwards for good measure.
Once the floor is smooth and clean, it's time to get down to the real work of stripping the floor of its old top layer. You may need to hand-sand a few areas so make sure you have sandpaper around, and that you've been lifting some weights because this is going to give your muscles a real workout.
Hand sand the perimeter of the floor because, unless you have a specialised sander, you're not going to get into those corners and crevices. When you start using the machine, you will need to start with course-grit paper to cut through the years of imbedded dirt and grime. Next, use medium-grit sandpaper to smooth out the rougher grit streaks and give the floor a smoother finish. Remember to change the sandpaper regularly to ensure a consistent finish across the floor.
Chemical Stripper (Optional)
This is for those who haven't been to the gym to lift weights; a chemical stripper can be used instead of sanding. It's a quick-fix solution if you want to avoid the trying task of sanding, but it does require a lot of preparation beforehand, due to the poisonous nature of the chemicals.
Ensure the house is well ventilated and that you have goggles, gloves and a mask because you don't want to inhale these toxic chemicals. If you have little ones, make sure they do not enter the house at all for several hours after applying the chemical. Chemical strippers should not be inhaled and your skin should not come into contact with the actual liquid.
Leave the stripping liquid on for about five minutes and you will notice the old varnish will start bubbling and peeling from the floor. Start removing it with a paint scraper before it dries otherwise you will struggle to remove it.
Mind the Gaps
Fill all remaining holes with wood paste, which you can make from any leftover sawdust – if you've sanded. Mix the dust with some wood glue and create a paste, which you immediately use to fill the holes and gaps. Leave it to dry and then sand it down by hand before varnishing. Make sure you give the floor one more vacuum before applying the finish.
Once you've decided on a gloss or matte finish, you need to apply it at this stage. Open all windows and doors as the fumes can be overpowering. Once again, wear a mask and gloves.
Do a spot test on a small area first, so you can see what the final result will look like. Some people use synthetic brushes while others prefer to use cheesecloth, either way you will need an applicator pad afterwards to evenly spread the varnish across the floor. Start from the outer perimeter and work your way in, ensuring you leave a place for you to exit the room without leaving footprints over your hard work. You can give a light sand between each application to ensure a smooth consistent finish.
Overhauling your floors will add value to your home and turn the interior around, making it stylish and functional because hardwood floors are easier to maintain than carpets that stain and fray. So take the step, we dare you. If you want to discover the beauty of your wooden floors but don't have the energy, time or know-how, then contact the flooring specialists who will get it done in next to no time, and with phenomenal results. Here's to wooden floors, glossy finishes and increased property value!

Touro announces new nursing masters degree program
By Sarah Rohrs Times-Herald staff writer /
FAIRFIELD -- Trained to care for others, nurses have a tough go of it themselves at times, and Touro University wants to lend them a helping hand.
That help has taken the form of a new School of Nursing, which will soon begin at the Touro University California campus on Mare Island.
Once underway, Touro University will be the only Solano County school to offer a master's degree in nursing, something officials say will be in big demand under the federal health care plan and the changing field.
More than a dozen Touro leaders joined Solano County and medical officials at the Solano County Events Center in Fairfield to announce the launching of the new school.
"As students graduate and enter the world of medicine, no one knows exactly what it will look like" and the new program will help prepare them for the health care field's changing dynamics, said Shelley Berkley, Touro Western Division CEO and Senior Provost.
In demand, in particular, is the medical health care required through the federal Affordable Care Act said Berkley, a former Nevada congresswoman who said she voted in favor of that bill.
The Mare Island campus has been planning the new nursing school for years. It was held up, however, by numerous factors, including the recession and a moratorium on new nursing program approvals, said Marilyn Hopkins, Touro University California Provost and Chief Operating Officer.
Leading the new department will be Ann Stoltz, who began her career as a Solano County public health nurse and also worked for the Vacaville Unified School District as a school nurse. She's taught at Sacramento State University since 2001 and developed many nursing programs.
"I'm so happy to be back at home," Stoltz said.
At its core, Stoltz said the program aims at removing barriers for nursing, and helping them obtain master's degrees -- education levels and training which are in big demand and will give nursing graduates greater opportunities in research, leadership and community health fields.
Aiming to start classes in November, Touro designed the new program for working registered nurses in which they would obtain a Master's Degree in nursing and various certifications. Those nurses with Associate Degrees or Bachelor Degrees can apply.
Donna Dabeck, NorthBay HealthCare nurse recruitment and retention manager, said she is excited about the program, and believes it will help newly graduated nursing students secure good jobs down the line.
"We have a lot of nurses with associate degrees who can't find work," Dabeck said. Likewise, nurses with bachelor's degrees would also benefit, she said.
A nurse with a master's degree is more likely to find work and meet demands of an ever-changing field, including meeting health demands of an aging population, she and others said.
Solano Community College President Jowel Laguerre, who participated in planning discussions on the new program, said students in his school's nursing program will benefit after they graduate.
"This gives the opportunity to continue to develop in the profession. Nowadays, with the advance of science and technology people are required to get more and more higher education," Laguerre said.
A former nurse who still has her license, Hopkins said the new School of Nursing will strengthen Touro's mission to meet demands of the work force.
"Advanced nursing degrees are essential to meeting the demand for clinical nurse leaders, nurse practitioners, nurse researchers, and nursing educators. Touro University California is ready to respond to this critical professional need," she said.
Those enrolled in the program will be able to complete it over an 18-month period through a combination of online and classroom courses offered one evening per week and one Sunday per month.
Contact staff writer Sarah Rohrs at email@example.com or (707) 553-6832. Follow her on Twitter @SarahVTH.

We already knew that Natalie Portman has an incredible voice — remember that Jackie accent? — but the Academy Award winner's latest role could have been her greatest challenge yet. In Vox Lux, Portman plays a pop icon on the verge of a nervous breakdown. There's another movie about a pop singer up for awards season consideration, of course. But, not to be overshadowed by A Star Is Born, Vox Lux also features a soundtrack with all-star collaborators. Portman provided her own vocals for the film, and worked with pop icon Sia, British singer-songwriter Scott Walker, and more to bring Vox Lux to life.
"Wrapped Up" is a killer debut for pop singer Natalie Portman. An anthemic, piano-led power ballad, "Wrapped Up" was penned by Sia and frequent collaborators Chris Briade and Greg Kurstin, and this star songwriting pedigree is evident when listening to the song. And especially when Portman's vocals are layered on the chorus, the actress sounds startlingly similar to Sia.
Along with the Portman track, a few others from Vox Lux were released today. Actress Raffey Cassidy (who plays Portman's character as a teenager) provided two songs for the soundtrack, including her own version of "Wrapped Up."
Vox Lux plays in limited release beginning today. Listen to Natalie Portman's pop debut, "Wrapped Up," above.

"Rett, can you come downstairs please!?" Katie yelled up the stairs to the home office. There was a sense of urgency in her voice.
"Be right there!" he called back, swallowing the cursing forming in his mind. Everett did not like the interruption but obliged. The workload was insane at the time and he had always been the 'if you want it done right, do it yourself' type.
When he arrived downstairs and found two uniformed men patiently waiting for him, he was more than surprised. Calling his visit highly unusual would be putting it mildly, and his grim expression did not ease the worry.
One of the men started talking, verifying identities and just dancing around it all.
"WHAT IS GOING ON?" Everett had enough. He was worried. Clearly, this had to do with his family. And loss. He did not like the sound at all.
"My deepest condolences, but there was a surprise attack, nobody saw it coming, …" the man sounded tired and defeated.
"WHAT?!" Rett was alarmed.
"There has been a great loss of lives tonight …." the man could not continue past those words.
"WHO!? I am way too tense and way too tired to keep playing charades with you!" Everett desperately rubbed his face. The stress of the past months until getting their son back, who was luckily peacefully sleeping in his room upstairs now, all the mounds of work were taking a toll.
"It was a wide-spread attack. It seems as though my colleagues and I will be visiting nearly every single household in the entire district. Your parents, Mr. Liam and Mrs. Leonie Anne Cameron were among the dead, as well as your aunt Vivian Auditore, her husband Vittorio and their adult son Vincenzo. The rest of the family seems safe from what we can tell. Again, our deepest condolences."
Everett could not speak. Katie stood mouth agape watching her husband crumble to the floor while she stiffened.
Half an hour later the door to the ambulance truck was thrown shut taking both of them away, both suffering nervous breakdowns.
What followed were days filled with despair, sadness and funerals. So many were lost that their last rites had to be split over several days, the few funeral homes that even dealt with deceased non-humans were overwhelmed and it took forever to find one to take on the heavy burden.
It was nearly too much to bear for all that remained.
So many at once.
It was so significant that ambulances were on standby.
Any funeral was hard and traumatic, but these were well beyond anything anybody should ever had to go through. Katie and Everett worried about Joshua's state of mind, but he seemed to be dealing okay.
There still was no sign or word of Heath and Abigail. No new threat, no demand for ransom, making one wonder if they had been taken or had gone into hiding voluntarily.
Every single member of the Cameron and Auditore families was affected and in deep distress.
The human government had already declared a state of emergency.
The preacher was going on and on about God's grace and how His ways were not always obvious to all, when it all happened fast.
The church doors locked on their own and three figures materialized in the middle of the church, right behind a very startled priest.
They were threatening, they were New Breed vampires and they were not to be taken lightly.
"Nice to find you all together. As you have found out, we do not make idle threats. Unlike him over there, I am also not a man of idle talk. We demand the human government to dissolve. It is now our time. We shall reign. I will announce a date by which those who come to me and join my army freely, choose immortality over the ongoing decay of a mortal will be save. Those who deny me, will find out what all else I am capable of. Deny me, and it will be war upon you. Among the things that will happen will be enslavement of all mortals and vampires in this room, I will personally father offspring will all females and I will discard immediately of anybody trying to obstruct. I never joke but always mean what I say. On that note, enjoy the remainder of the ceremony and while you do, remember my words – and deeds." he vanished with a typical evil laugh that would have rendered this scene ridiculous, but nobody felt amused, as it was perfectly clear he meant every word.
The three uninvited guests were gone as fast as they had appeared. The funeral service was ended and instead the burials began, as nobody was in the mood to drag out the unavoidable any longer.
The small cemetery was suddenly very much filled and nobody knew how to function properly anymore. All tried hard to keep up appearances but all failed miserably.
Everett and his siblings stared at the graves of their parents. Liam and Leonie had touched so many lives. How could it be over? How could this be?! Without even a chance to say goodbye?
Everleigh stared at the damp earth which now held her beloved grandparents, Cam next to her, both their gazes empty. Evey's thoughts were far away wondering where Heath was. He was her soulmate, she could feel he was alive … poor Abby! Obviously, they did not hesitate to kill toddlers or children, so she was in grave danger. If she still lived.
Over the next months everybody tried their best to process all the recent trauma. Josh still had his own cross to bear with processing his time as a runaway and now his parents and sister were in desperate need for his support, once more torpedoing the tender ground his new start was founded on.
Few weeks after the funerals it was announced that somehow the leader of the New Breeds and most of his growing army had been found and their existence extinguished.
The government, and in an effort to protect all living from anything like this ever happening again, put back into place all the sanctions once in effect, but this time made no difference between Old and New Breed, strict laws with harsh punishment and rigid rules. Vampires, old and New Breed alike, were once more feared by mortals, shunned, often accused of crimes they did not commit and executed quickly until their numbers were decimated to near extinction. To avoid sympathy from mortals, it was made a crime to willfully engage in social interactions with vampires. As as result, remaining vampires became illusive, true children of the night they had been brandmarked as since ancient times. Once more vampires were on their way to become little more than a myth to most who did not know any better, the few remaining vampires were careful to not to disabuse the humans of that notion, leaving them guessing about their existence, so they could go about their undead lives undetected. Forgotten Hollow nearly abandoned aside from a few illusive inhabitants that remained hidden from most mortals.
Everett forced himself to recover, to move on, telling himself that was what his parents would have wanted, him being the oldest. As hard as it was – and it was – he had his immediate family to think of, to protect. His teen son was still trying to recover from his traumatic experience needing his full support, his daughter was hurting for her best friend, his siblings looked to him for strength and guidance, his younger brother and his husband were also recovering from a tremendous shock, there was no time for Everett to curl up and cry.
Being the oldest also meant he had become the executor of the estates of his deceased family, since they never assumed they would need it there were no last wills and testaments, his three siblings were looking to him to figure out what to do with the inheritance and how to move on.
Everett owed it to his parents and grandparents to do them proud and be strong.
Heath and Abigail remained gone without a trace …
Time takes life away
and gives us memory, gold with flame,
black with embers. ~ Adam Zagajewski

Re: Exasperation Wanted
In Part II of our adventure with a certain lonely combat alpaca we see that old habits die hard. Nobody's sure why Hidalgo has it out for the bunnies so bad, but the attack instinct apparently extends to photos of them. Poor Hidalgo.
If you're stopping by for this week's update from the Baltimore Creative Alliance's Merry Mart show this past weekend, HOWDY! Thanks for stopping by. It was a great day for us and we spoke to a good few people who were really awesome. We hope to do more local holiday shows next year, so you'll be seeing a lot more of us!
As a note, I've discovered I'm a very bad blogger. I don't update nearly as often as I should, nor as I would like to. Would you believe I used to write a semi-regularly updated rant blog that had a bunch of readers? I continue to harbor this idea that I need to run a different blog for each 'THING' I'm into. This becomes problematic because I'm into A LOT of THINGS. Currently I'm working out the kinks in this system. I'm looking into personal branding and hopefully within the year will have ONE PLACE on the internet for people to find ALL OF THE THINGS I'm doing and to read everything I have to say on all of the THINGS I'm into. So if you're still around by next year you'll find out very quickly that I'm a REALLY WEIRD DUDE! 🙂
Thanks for reading.

Necromutant number two, complete with stiches in the skull and a missing tooth.
Warzone Necromutant #2
Necromutant number two, complete with stiches in the skull and a missing tooth.
Necromutant number two, complete with stiches in the skull and a missing tooth.
The retro Warzone Necromutants are finished for the Dark Legion army. I thought I would unleash them one by one over the next few days. There are only six so don't panic…
For some reason the first one is wearing a mask.
MotoGP returned today after what felt like a never ending winter off season. The MotoGP race was an epic event with Doctor Rossi on his Yamaha winning the first round in Qatar from Dovizioso on the Ducati.
Can Rossi continue this year to reach his 10th championship in his 20th season?
Current champion Marquez made an error in turn one to run off track but hit 217.66 mph in his attempt to catch up, the highest speed ever recorded in a MotoGP race.
It has been a tough week. Real work took over big time and I have been away and busy. The only new stuff to share is the undercoated Land Train.
It is big, it is green and quite awesome.
The Land Train will be painted to match the Stug/Pugs so there are plenty of rivets to paint.
I added some bits to the front of the command car as it looked a bit flat.
The whole thing is a really long model that will dominate a games table. With three Stug/Pugs supporting, the opposition will be in trouble.
When the Rivet Wars board game arrived, I instantly took a like to the Allied artillery, a nice big chunky model that I thought would fit in nice with the Imperial Meridian army. Rather than butcher one of the models from the board game, I kept an eye on eBay and managed to pick up a couple of spares for butchering.
Having removed one from the standard base, I glued the loose pieces so the wheels and rear stabilisers were fixed and thought about mounting it on a round base.
This is the sort of thing I wanted the engineer conversions for, to crew some funky steampunk weapons.
These two are Hasslefree Jotun models that I have wanted to finish for years. And I do mean years. When I actually started painting them, I found there was way more detail than I was anticipating, so they took longer than I thought. As I was going along, I was not really happy with the way they were looking, far to bright for undead. Even when the ink was going to be applied they looked like they would be too light.
Nothing to do but carry on. When the Army Painter Dark Tone ink was applied it calmed them down a lot and I guess they will do.
These will be used as Praetorian Stalkers in my retro Dark Legion army that is currently in the works. They may not look a great deal like the Prodos models, but they are big and armed with HMG's, so they work for me!
The first of the Dark Legion cannon fodder are finished, just a few basic Undead Legionnaires to start the squad off. I'm going to need a bunch of these chaps, enough for two small squads and some spares.
One of the great things about painting this type of model is that you don't have to stick to a uniform, anything goes and you can slap on any colour you fancy. So I did. That does mean you end up with an odd mix of models but it won't matter, I can't see them lasting long in a game.

Roxane Laboratories and the FDA are alerting physicians to serious adverse events and deaths resulting from accidental overdose of morphine sulfate oral solutions. In response to these reports, the Columbus, Ohio-based manufacturer is updating its product labeling to help prevent such errors.
The FDA approved Roxane's Morphine Sulfate Oral Solution 100 mg per 5 mL for relief of moderate to severe acute and chronic pain in opioid-tolerant patients last year. The manufacturer also produces two similar products:
- Morphine Sulfate Oral Solution 20 mg/5 mL and
- Morphine Sulfate Oral Solution 10 mg/5 mL.
The FDA said in a Jan. 10 safety alert(www.fda.gov) that in most of the reported overdose cases, medication ordered in milligrams was mistakenly given in milliliters.
Roxane said in a December letter to health care professionals(www.fda.gov) that such mistakes could lead to a patient receiving a 20-fold overdose.
According to the letter, physicians writing prescriptions for morphine sulfate oral solution should take the following steps to ensure patients receive the proper dose:
- do not abbreviate the name of the drug;
- clearly state the concentration of morphine sulfate; and
- state the intended dose of morphine in milligrams (mg), with the corresponding volume in milliliters (mL) written in the directions.
The medication comes with a boxed warning that addresses the risk of medication errors; the same information is included in the indications and usage, dosage and administration, and warnings and precautions sections of the prescribing information.
Roxane also said it is making the following label changes to its 100 mg/5 mL product:
- A new warning indicates the product is "only for use in patients who are opioid-tolerant." The higher-dose concentration of morphine sulfate may cause fatal respiratory depression when administered to patients not previously exposed to opioids.
- The strength now is presented as "100 mg per 5 mL," with "20 mg/mL" in parentheses below it to differentiate the product from the manufacturer's 20 mg/5 mL product.
- A bright yellow background is used on multiple sides of the product label to differentiate it from Roxane's other morphine sulfate oral solution labels, which have white backgrounds.
Finally, a medication guide will be included in each product carton. Roxane urged health care professionals to read the instructions that describe proper use of the calibrated oral syringe that is packaged with both the 30-mL and 120-mL bottles of morphine sulfate 100 mg/5 mL and to discuss those instructions with their patients.

This morning I received an email from Foursquare (a location-based social network where you can "check in" at different locations) indicating that I have been ousted as the "mayor" at one of my favourite champagne bars in London, Searcys. I have only been away traveling for six days and apparently there is a new mayor in town. I will reclaim my mayorship but in the mean time, I thought I would share about a classic champagne cocktail that Searcys Champagne Bar does very well – The Classic!
The Classic Champagne Cocktail is perfect to add a little extra to your celebration. The Classic recipe is simple:
- 1 sugar cube (I prefer brown sugar)
- 2 dashes bitters
- 20ml/3/4fl oz Cognac
- Champagne (I personally like the Besserat de Bellefon Grande Tradition NV that Searcys uses)
Tip: Soak the sugar cube in bitters & garnish with a lemon twist.
Hope you enjoy it! Now I have to go and reclaim my mayorship!

Housed within the grounds of Fort Nongqayi, the Vukani Museum boasts the largest and most valuable collection of Zulu crafts in the world. Amazing baskets, many of the pieces by the doyenne of weavers, Rubin Ndwandwe, share the museum's space with "khamba" pots, the clay pots made for the communal drinking of Zulu "umqombothi" traditional beer.
These pots, traditionally made without a lid, are works of art, beautifully embellished with intricate cross-hatching and other patterns. Although large in volume they are remarkably thin and anyone with a knowledge of pottery will be intrigued by the skill of the potters represented here, particularly the internationally famous Nester Nala.

Paid advertising on Facebook seems to be one of the most immediate ways to impact the reach of your content. Though it's not without its questions. How well does it work? What kind of engagement do you get? And what can you expect for your hard-earned money?
Of course, with great targeting power comes great responsibility. Facebook ads are far from beginner-friendly, and the huge range of ad options make it tough for newbies to get started. To some extent, you just have to dive in and get your feet wet.
According to research compiled by Hubspot, Facebook ad revenue grew from just under $2 billion in 2010 to $12.5 billion , with ads on the popular social platform accounting for "more than 9% of total digital ad spending and 18.4% of global mobile digital advertising."
The platform's success is due, in large part, to its unparalleled targeting capabilities. Currently, there are no other paid advertising opportunities that allow you to target messages to such specific demographics as 35-year-old women who live in Dallas and like the band Slipknot.
Understanding how to leverage Facebook Ads is becoming a staple part of almost every social media strategy. And if you want to get your posts seen on Facebook, it's becoming more and more likely that you'll have to pay for reach with Facebook Ads.
An advertisement created by a business on Facebook that's served up to Facebook users based on user activity, demographic information, device use information, advertising and marketing partner-supplied information, and off-Facebook activity.
Why It's Important
Facebook ads are so important to brands because of the extra reach, exposure, and targeting options available to brands who advertise on the network.
For every single brand that advertises on Facebook, it's also important to be able to segment social media performance by paid vs. organic activities.
How Paid and Organic Likes Are Calculated
Paid and organic Likes are broken out within Facebook Insights' Like Sources.
Like Sources can be viewed within the Insights tool or the Insights data export, where the number of unique people who liked your Page are broken out by location.
You can find the following three sources of paid Likes within Like Sources:
• Ads
• Mobile Ads
• Sponsored Stories
The sum of these three sources represents the total number of paid Likes for your Page.
How to Use It
When you advertise on Facebook, it becomes more difficult to report on audience growth that is driven organically.
Nevertheless, for social marketers, it's important to both understand the impact of paid advertising and avoid attributing paid Likes to successful community management tactics.
Segmenting paid Likes from total Likes allows you to do just that. By separating the two, you can accurately report on community growth while still being able to identify trends in organic growth.
Organic growth trends can be used to identify successful tactics for building your audience.
Segmenting fan growth also makes it possible to calculate benchmarks and set goals based on your Facebook advertising budget.
Before you jump in and create any adverts, it's important to first think about why you're advertising and what you're aiming to achieve. By setting yourself a few goals ahead of going live with ads, you also have something to measure your success against.

Guilt Episode 8 Official Recap: Eyes Wide Open
Is Grace truly innocent?!
Disagreements at the palace.
Prince Theo and Charlotte host a dinner party at the palace. Their guests discuss the Courtenay and Charlotte, who has been drinking, hints that Molly Ryan's killer could be sitting at their very table before she excuses herself from the room. Prince Theo follows her and tells her she must return to the party, but Charlotte asserts that she is going home.
A new suspect?
Natalie tells Stan about her meeting with Neville and that Prince Theo is Molly's killer, but Stan is dubious. She asks him to run the license plate number that Neville gave her and says she will try and get more proof. Since Veena's story didn't reveal enough details and names, Stan continues to work the Courtenay angle. Meanwhile, Roz is at Kaley's flat, but Kaley is furious with her and blames her for everything that has gone wrong recently. Roz tries to console Kaley by telling her that she did what she had to do, but Kaley is not convinced and forces Roz to leave.
Stan has a plan!
Stan visits Grace in prison and tells her that he has brought a memory recovery specialist with him. Grace is worried about what she might remember, but Stan convinces her that it'll be better for her to find out what happened sooner rather than later. Later, Grace is told by Dr. Caldwell to go back to the night when Molly was killed, but instead, Grace remembers a happy time when Molly asked her to move in with her and Roz.
Breakthroughs at the police station!
At Scotland Yard, Bruno has discovered that a lady named Jessica Marshall was a regular client of the Courtenay. Pike tells Bruno that a photo of Jessica on Molly's phone was taken several hours after Jessica was last seen by her co-workers. They don't know where the photo was taken, but they spot an expensive painting in the background and decide to trace its whereabouts to find out. Gwen arrives and tells Bruno that Judge Manning will be taking Grace's case. She's happy because she knows that this judge won't fall for any of Stan's tricks. Gwen apologizes to Bruno for kicking him off the case and they agree to get drinks later.
Is Bruno worried?
Phillip finds Charlotte and asks her to come back to the palace as Prince Theo would like to talk to her. Meanwhile, Natalie meets with Bruno and tells him about Neville. Bruno is initially angry with Natalie as she agreed she would stay out of the case, but when she mentions Prince Theo's name, Bruno agrees to take the number of the license plate and look into it.
Promises, promises.
Patrick meets with his cousin Declan and after an initial argument about Patrick abandoning their family, Patrick tells Declan that he has thought of a way to finish what their fathers started. They have a chance to remind England that they haven't forgotten about everything the Crown has taken from them. When Declan asks him how, Patrick replies, "with blood". Meanwhile, Prince Theo tells Charlotte that what happened the other night could never happen again. Charlotte replies, "or what? You'll kill me like you killed Molly Ryan?". Prince Theo swears he didn't kill Molly, but admits that he knew her through the Courtenay. He promises never to be unfaithful to Charlotte again and she agrees to stay with him.
Further dealings.
Stan meets with Veena and tells her that he needs her to publicize more details about the Courtenay. To persuade her, he says that Grace will give her exclusive interviews throughout her trial. Later, Stan goes to Veena's flat and she shows him all of the evidence she has collated about Courtenay clients since her story broke. He spots a photo of George Zaveri and even though he has an alibi for the night Molly was murdered, Stan keeps the photo.
Grace remembers!
Back at Scotland Yard, Grace is still with Dr. Caldwell. She is remembering the party at her flat the night Molly was killed. She is jealous of how close Molly and Luc are and angrily confronts Molly about the lap dance. Back in the present, Grace tells the specialist that she is scared because in that moment she hated Molly so much that she wanted to kill her. Later, Grace remembers being in the bathroom before coming out and seeing Molly. Looking up from her dead body, she can make out a man with his back turned. Grace then wakes up and tells Dr. Caldwell that she didn't kill Molly!
Everyone wants out!
Patrick meets with Kaley and asks her to figure out how to get Prince Theo alone. Kaley, however, is adamant that she does not want any more blood on her hands. As an alternative, she says that she will tell everyone she knows that Prince Theo killed Molly, but that isn't enough for Patrick. Meanwhile, James arrives at Natalie's apartment. He tells her that he has gotten involved with people he shouldn't have and is leaving London because it's not safe. He tells Natalie that there is no way they will be able to contact him, that he has set up trust funds for her and Grace, and that he loves them both.
Bruno tampers with evidence again!
At Scotland Yard, Bruno searches the license plate number and finds that it matches Prince Theo's. He phones Natalie and tells her to meet him at his flat. Later, he breaks into Prince Theo's car to plant evidence, but unbeknown to Bruno, he is being watched by Phillip. Later, Prince Theo and Phillip go to Bruno's apartment. Prince Theo tells Bruno that he has been left with no choice but to inform Internal Affairs about Donovan Trimbly and about Bruno's tampering with the evidence in the Molly Ryan case. He also threatens to reveal that Bruno slept with Natalie. When Prince Theo and Phillip leave, Natalie emerges from a corner of Bruno's flat. She has overheard everything and is devastated that Bruno was helping Prince Theo.
Natalie has an unexpected run-in.
While Natalie makes her way to Bruno's apartment she has an unexpected run-in with Neville's mom. Neville's mom tells Natalie that she knows she went to visit Neville at the hospital. She tells Natalie that Neville is "sick" and the pressure of the Molly Ryan case is too much for him. Natalie tries to explain to Neville's mom that him helping Grace will help Neville "feel good about himself".
Roz got Luc a job at the Courtenay too?!
Roz arrives at Luc's and tells him that she needs a place to stay. When Luc protests, Roz reminds him that she gave him a job at the Courtenay when he was desperate. Meanwhile, Bruno arrives at Stan's and tells him that he would like to testify against Prince Theo. Later, Damon and Patrick meet again. Damon supplies Patrick with a gun.
Hope for Grace at last!
Natalie visits Grace in prison. Grace tells her that according to Dr. Caldwell, she disassociated when she saw Molly's body, which is why she couldn't remember anything. Ecstatic, Natalie says they now have everything to prove Grace's innocence: Grace's memory, Neville's testimony, and the police cover up. Natalie is certain they'll win. Meanwhile, Stan runs into Gwendolyn who has been stood up by Bruno. She gloats that Judge Manning is on the case, but Stan tells her that she has now stepped down. Turns out that the photo Stan took from Veena was a photo of Judge Manning's husband! Stan is always one step ahead of everyone else.

I was surprised and delighted when I was contacted by the Peoria, Illinois American Sewing Guild to be their featured speaker for their yearly conference. The conference will be held the weekend of October 1, 2016.
To kick off the conference, I will be doing a hands on class on Friday, September 30th, where I will guide the participants through making a bag that I have specially designed for the conference. Sadly, their are only 12 spots available, so I've been told that the class will fill quickly, and is only open to members of the Peoria ASG chapter. The good news is that once the class is over, the pattern will be available to all.
The Saturday program is open to all. So if you are anywhere near Peoria, Illinois, I would love to have you join me for the day! Sign up information will be posted later this summer. In the meantime, if you would like to check out their newsletter, you can find it here, http://www.peoriaasg.org/files/SewCiety_News_WinterUpdated.pdf
Below is the article that was featured in their newsletter that tells a little about the conference and a little about me too.
The featured speaker for Sew Special…16 is Rhonda Buss of Chicago. Rhonda is a past president of the Haute Couture Club of Chicago. The event will feature a hands-on handbag workshop for 12 participants on Friday. Rhonda will be designing the project that will teach participants about zipper application, pockets, hardware and other handbag construction techniques. Saturday will feature all things sleeves including how to change garments by restyling the sleeves. Samples will be available for the different sleeve variations. Rhonda will demonstrate how to draft, cut, slash and construct each sleeve variation. You don't have to be an expert because these techniques can apply to even a simple t-shirt style garment. There will be a trunk show of some of Rhonda's fashions. The afternoon will conclude with a make it take it wool flower accessory suitable for a lapel, hat, bag or where ever. A small kit fee will apply. In addition, the Saturday Sew Special….16 will feature a noon style show by the state Make It With Wool contestants. Some would say that Rhonda was born with a needle in her hand. Her first project was an embroidered handkerchief that she made with the help of her grandmother at the age of five. Once in high school, she took every sewing and design class that her school offered. With nothing more to offer, she was sent to the local community college where she had the opportunity to study fashion illustration and costume design. While in college, she took the limited fashion design classes that were offered, but finally had the opportunity to truly hone her skills at Ray College of Design in Chicago where she graduated with a degree in Fashion Design. In her final year, Rhonda won numerous awards for her designs, including fur and millinery awards. After graduating Rhonda worked as a designer for a dress manufacturer. From there she did costume design and returned to teach tailoring and design at Ray College. In recent years, Rhonda began writing for Sew News Magazine. She has also been featured in Threads magazine, Sew It All, and Sew Stylish. Her design was on the Spring 2014 cover for Sew Stylish magazine. In 2012, Rhonda won The People's Choice Award in the Passion For Fashion competition at the American Sewing Expo. In 2013, her design won third place. In her popular blog, Rhonda's Creative Life, Rhonda features easy to make designs made from simple shapes. She has a passion for sharing her knowledge and believes that everyone can sew and create. They just need the basic knowledge.
Sew Special....16
Featuring Rhonda Buss
"Come meet me in Peoria," sounds a little like a line from a country western song! I grew up listening to country western music and thanks to Tammy Wynette, it's how I learned to spell, d-i-v-o-r-c-e!!! That's really true! But, all jokes aside, if you aren't too far from Peoria, and you have a little time to spare, I would truly enjoy spending the day with you.

Christmas 1991 - My Cousin Karen in the white & I'm in red - I was 19
What a funny old couple of weeks it has been. I have re-established contact with three very old friends from high school (here & in the US) in the last few weeks that I haven't heard from in anywhere from eight to nineteen years... Crazy! I am usually not to bad at keeping in touch, let's face it we all get busy, but facing it has exactly what has happened, or Facebook to be more exact. In my former corporate life, when I spent hours each day in front of a computer screen, I would have been fabulous at Facebook. I would have been one of those wall writing, poking, group joining users that was always online. These days I am lucky if I can even get to check my email every day, but the miracle of Facebook & managed to get me reunited with people who have a great deal time invested in my life. It's is establishing a new chapter in my 'Facebook' & I will be very interested in seeing where it takes me.
On the knitty front I am about a third of my way through a basic black tank for me & am concocting a wrap for the daughter of one of the aforementioned old friends, I just I had more minutes in the day to get everything done.... Hmmm I need to get off Facebook & get knitting!

I've been cutting and sewing the last few days and have finally caught up on the Easy Street Mystery Quilt over at Quiltville, Bonnie Hunter's web site. Bonnie is posting a clue every Friday for 6 to 8 weeks. The 4 patches with the grey are from week 1, and the purple flying geese are from week 2. I've even done the extra credit and have cut the rectangles that will be used in a future step.
I'm using the colors that Bonnie recommends: purple, lime green and turquoise along with the grey and the black on white backgrounds. I'm a bit concerned that there are no warm colors in this quilt, but since Bonnie recommended these colors, I decided to go with them and see what happens.
I've also started decorating for Christmas as you can see by the afghan in the background.
Thanks for stopping by for a visit today!

We're offering a rewarding way to shop for your favorite products.
Here's the fine print on this great new way to earn your way to discounts or free products:
The Loyalty Points Program is open to retail customers only, not wholesale customers, and accrues points that can be used *only* on Blissoma.com. Points accrued on our website cannot be used in-store and vice versa. These are separate systems with separate computer tracking and we cannot combine them, with our apologies.
Points accrued on Blissoma.com do not expire and can be used at your discretion. For every $1 you spend on our website you will receive 5 points credited to your account. Occasionally we will offer special ways to earn extra points for purchasing certain products. To find out about special points promotions please make sure to sign up for our email newsletter, where these specials will be announced.
Redeeming Points
Points accrued on Blissoma.com can be used in several ways:
1. You can redeem your points to "pay" for products.
When you are logged into your account you will see an additional button next to the "Add to your cart" button that will show the redemption value of any eligible products on our site. If you have enough points in your account you can use the points to purchase that product. Accruing enough points to pay for an entire product may require waiting and letting points accrue through several orders depending on the value of the product. Samples will be one of the easiest things that can be bought with points, as their values are lowest of everything on our site.
2. You can redeem points to purchase gift certificates for our website which can be used to apply to your orders so you save money.
Because gift certificates on our site can be purchased like any other product we have set point redemption values for gift certificates valued up to $60. The lowest value gift certificate is $5, which would cost 500 points. Simply purchase the gift certificate with your accrued points, and then use the gift certificate to pay for a portion of your product order. This method will be the fastest method for customers to achieve savings on most orders.
And BONUS: When you redeem points to purchase a gift certificate you will actually earn points as well! A $5 gift certificate will earn you 25 points, a $10 gift certificate will earn you 100 points and so on just like purchasing a regular product.
You can also earn points to your account when purchasing gift certificates or products to gift to friends and family, making Blissoma a gift that truly gives back.
An account must be created on our site to track your points. Points do not expire. Please contact our staff if you have any questions or trouble with point accrual or redemption.

I often write and talk about my simple definition of diversity: the synergy of our uniqueness and commonality.
In other words, the combined effect or interaction based on our differences and similarities. And we're all both similar to and different from each other, all 7.508 billion of us.
At Be. Leadership last weekend, Joe Macdonald from Affinity Services' Rainbow Community Liaison and Training Team spoke about a trend they have seen in younger people identifying as genderfluid and/or pansexual, rather than male/female/transgender and/or gay/bi/straight. I asked Joe what dials they thought were being turned to encourage/enable this change.
Joe's answer was that there seemed to be a change in the meaning of ambiguity. Whereas previously "ambiguous" may have been seen as a synonym for "confused", now, perhaps, young people are choosing ambiguity as a clear identity — in other words, people are clear that their gender and sexual identity, as well as their preference and orientation, are, indeed, unclear and undefined.
There's a lot of talk about addiction these days: to drugs, alcohol, sex, porn, coffee, food, cigarettes. You name it, if it makes you feel good, you're addicted.
But here's a couple of other addictive "circumstances" we don't talk about: certainty and knowing. If there are a couple of things we all crave for, it's assurance and understanding.
In the 1980s, 90s and early 2000s I ran awareness workshops. They were focussed on raising awareness of others' diversity, often a certain aspect or characteristic: their disability, sexuality, etc. I also attended workshops aimed at raising my awareness of others, eg. cultural diversity.
I've been reflecting on the work I do now, in particular sessions I've led for ATEED and Idea Services' Autism and Specialist Support team in the last week. I realise I've totally re-oriented the role of awareness in understanding and responding to diversity.
These days I work with people to increase their awareness of themselves, to develop self-awareness.
Yesterday I ran a session on diversity with a group of facilitators. My aim was to work with them around their understanding of diversity but also to highlight the power of facilitation to elicit diversity.
I described the session in this way:

Analysis of Poem "Auto Wreck" by Karl Shapiro
Karl Shapiro and a Summary of Auto Wreck
Auto Wreck is a poem that concentrates on a "live" car accident and brings the reader directly into contact with the consequences of such a violent, horrific scenario. It is a commentary on a modern phenomena, that of the highway smash, and is full of vivid imagery. It also asks important questions about the nature of human fragility, and how we react to such sudden death.
Karl Shapiro was no stranger to the negative effects technology can have on humans. He served in the second world war and wrote war poems which reflected his experiences of trauma and violence. Auto Wreck was published in his first book People, Place and Thing, published in 1942.
Auto Wreck
Its quick soft silver bell beating, beating,
And down the dark one ruby flare
Pulsing out red light like an artery,
The ambulance at top speed floating down
Past beacons and illuminated clocks
Wings in a heavy curve, dips down,
And brakes speed, entering the crowd.
The doors leap open, emptying light;
Stretchers are laid out, the mangled lifted
And stowed into the little hospital.
Then the bell, breaking the hush, tolls once.
And the ambulance with its terrible cargo
Rocking, slightly rocking, moves away,
As the doors, an afterthought, are closed.
We are deranged, walking among the cops
Who sweep glass and are large and composed.
One is still making notes under the light.
One with a bucket douches ponds of blood
Into the street and gutter.
One hangs lanterns on the wrecks that cling,
Empty husks of locusts, to iron poles.
Our throats were tight as tourniquets,
Our feet were bound with splints, but now,
Like convalescents intimate and gauche,
We speak through sickly smiles and warn
With the stubborn saw of common sense,
The grim joke and the banal resolution.
The traffic moves around with care,
But we remain, touching a wound
That opens to our richest horror.
Already old, the question Who shall die?
Becomes unspoken Who is innocent?
For death in war is done by hands;
Suicide has cause and stillbirth, logic;
And cancer, simple as a flower, blooms.
But this invites the occult mind,
Cancels our physics with a sneer,
And spatters all we knew of denouement
Across the expedient and wicked stones.
Analysis of Auto Wreck
Auto Wreck is a 3 stanza poem in free verse, there is no set end rhyme scheme and the meter varies from pentameter to tetrameter, in iambic form mostly but trochaic feet are also present. What this tends to do is break up the rhythm and introduce a choppy beat which shifts the emphasis and slightly confuses the flow. The poet intended this to happen and it brings a little uneasiness for the reader, reflecting the auto accident scene.
- Each stanza brings a different perspective. The first stanza is a kind of live commentary on the mechanics of the accident, the second involves the crowd and uses the collective, questioning 'we', whilst the third is an answer to these questions about human innocence.
All in all a powerful poem that is full of imagery, reality and logic. It also has a strange detachment, as if the poet were a cameraman or documentary maker, stumbling across this horrific accident, asking soul searching questions about the randomness of death.
Further Analysis Line by Line
Lines 1 - 7
From the first line the senses are jolted into excitement, the initial commentary bringing the aftermath of a car crash right into the reader's immediate space. An ambulance is speeding towards the scene. Note the alliteration - soft, silver bell beating, beating - just like the heart which pumps blood around the body. The word flare indicates that this is an emergency and time is of the essence.
A mix of pentameter and tetrameter form the first four lines, lengthening and shortening the focus, an echo of the ambulance as it arrives at the wreck. The red light is likened to an artery, that which takes blood to the tissues in most cases, pulsing through the night.
- There is also a surreal element in this vivid image. The ambulance appears to float, as if it's on wings, bearing down on the scene of devastation. Could this be an allusion to an angel, coming to rescue and heal the poor unfortunates caught up in the accident?
The ambulance slows down into the crowd of onlookers. Perhaps the dark has added to the idea that this is no ordinary vehicle, it is a spiritual entity winging its way into the human world. This personification helps connect the mechanistic to the unreal.
Lines 8 - 14
Light empties from the back of the ambulance, as if fluid, and the bodies lifted onto stretchers and into the 'little hospital'; then the bell tolls - just like a church bell tolls when receiving the dead - and with a rocking movement, pulls away.
- Note the language used here, it is direct and a little crude. The poet chooses mangled to describe those who have been injured in the crash and goes on to use terrible cargo, as if the victims are nothing but a load of freight. This is in complete contrast to the previously implied idea that the ambulance was a winged being, coming to put things right.
No. The reader is confronted with the grim reality of death, death on a public road. So serious is the situation, so stark the nature of a fatal crash, that the ambulance doors seem not to matter when they are closed.
More Analysis Line by Line
Lines 15 - 21
There is an acute shift in perspective in the second stanza. The speaker has become part of the crowd, is a spokesperson for the crowd, and the picture widens a little as the police are introduced. Gone is the rather detached, objective description of the scene.
As the cops go about their business of taking notes and cleaning up, the crowd are in shock, disbelieving what they have just witnessed. The cars are seen as locusts, insects that are traditionally a nuisance, often in plagues, and they are clinging to iron poles they have crashed into.
Are the cars are so wrecked, with metal strips sticking out, panels busted and headlights popping out, that the speaker is reminded of large insects, a peculiar association but quite a striking image to consider.
The language used to pinpoint the action of the cops is again unusually blunt. One rinses ponds of blood (not pools) down the gutter. The word douche refers to rinsing out of body cavities. All in all, quite a visceral scene.
Lines 22 - 32
There is still confusion, perhaps denial; there are questions to be asked. The speaker becomes victim, the crowd become the souls of those departed, become the people killed in the accident. Are these the wounds of the victims or the onlookers suffering mentally and emotionally?
Tourniquets and splints bind, support and help heal. Perhaps the crowd watched as these were being applied to those fatally wounded - not an ideal pastime, to be a voyeur at the side of the highway.
- Gauche is to be socially awkward, and who wouldn't feel a bit strange being part of a gawking crowd? But they have also seen something unique and feel somehow bonded by the experience.
They are asking serious questions despite wanting to be light-hearted, to make light of such things happening in the locality. They are asking questions only God might answer, or the Fates. Who shall die? And why?
Analysis of Final Lines of Auto Wreck
Lines 33 - 39
The final stanza attempts to put the deaths of the auto wreck into perspective by contrasting them with war, suicide, stillborn and cancer. All of the latter have a reason or are relatively easy to understood causes of death but a car crash comes out of the blue; death is random and the reasons are hidden.
As humans we find such sudden accidental deaths hard to take. We inhabit a world of cause and effect, simple physics, so why do we have to experience such illogical fatalities? Shock and an altered state of consciousness results to help us deal with such scenarios and the poem explores this with powerful imagery and direct language.
- Denouement means to tie up loose ends, so the speaker is suggesting that there are no neat conclusions to be drawn from an auto wreck in which people die. The onomatopoeic spatter is used, again a strong visual image to finish off a highly impressionistic piece of work.

Portland sued Uber on Monday to stop the fast-growing ride-hailing service from operating in the Oregon city until it follows local regulations.
Uber operates in areas around Portland, but only started up in the city itself on Friday, without consent from authorities or any agreement over how it should be regulated.
"The city's lawsuit is asking for a declaration by the court that Uber is subject to the city's regulations," the city said in a statement. "The lawsuit also asks the court to order Uber to stop operating in Portland until it is in compliance with the city's safety, health and consumer protection rules."
Local media reported that the service has been available in Portland for the past few days.
"Uber has received a tremendously warm welcome from riders and drivers in and around Portland. We appreciate the way residents have welcomed Uber into the Rose City, their support illustrates why it's time to modernize Portland transportation regulation," said Uber spokeswoman Eva Behrend.
The online ride service was valued at $40 billion last week after its latest funding round ahead of an expected initial public offering.
However, it has been dogged by controversy surrounding its aggressive approach to local governments and traditional taxi services.
It has been banned from taking bookings in the Netherlands because authorities say it lacks a special license.
On Monday Uber was banned from operating in the Indian capital New Delhi after a female passenger accused one of its drivers of rape.
The case is City of Portland v Uber Technologies Inc, filed in the Circuit Court of the State of Oregon for the County of Multnomah.

NUVI 2340 upgrade - make space on the SD card
Upgrade says I need a 3mb Micro SD Card. I have one inserted which has enabled me to do earlier updates. It now says I need to insert an SD card. Can I delete anything on the existing micro SD card to make space. I have 2 folders Garmin and Map and 952mb free. Does the Nuvi need the SD card in after the update? Thanks
↑ Top
SD cards are pretty cheap. I'd just get a 16GB class 4 or better card. I have had trouble with brands though. I bought a PNY 4GB class 4 that wouldn't wouldn't work in my nuvi205w, but a sandisk 16GB class 4 is recognized. The PNY card does work in other devices.
Your current SD card doesn't contain a preloaded map from Garmin does it?
Thanks for this - the SD Card has files gmappupdate.gsd, gmapupdate.img gmapupdate.gma gmapupdate.unl - but these are from recent updates
I think you can safely delete all of them. However I'd actually create a folder on my computer's HD and copy the entire contents of the SD folder and all, before I deleted them just in case.
Again, that's not a Garmin map SD card, is it? Don't delete anything till you've heard from other's here. I've no experience with the preloaded map cards. I know there are special licensing issues and other things to consider.
Thanks - I think I agree with your strategy. It was initially an empty card. Do you know if the SD card after update has to remain in the Satnav or is it just necessary for the update process?
sussamb 829 PointsIt has to stay there as it contains the map files.
Ramaprem 112 PointsYou can completely erase - in that case - everything on the present card before updating. Anything an update has placed on a card can be deleted before a new update.
Updating, after all, can be done on a new - and therefore empty - card.
Thanks all updated and worked fine now
i deleted all files on card then had to format it again as not formatted for Garmin - bit strange as it had worked for updates before. all went through easily after this. thanks for support responders. very helpful
