Design a character and build a quilt around that character
This is a fun challenge to get people to design a character and build a quilted item around it using other quilt blocks as well. The character can be based on real life or a cartoon or whatever tickles your fancy. Frosty the Snowman, a historical figure, the squirrel that steals peanuts in your backyard, the penguin at the zoo. I think you get the idea. Im open to just about anything.
Since we want your new friend to stand out so everyone can ooh and ahh it can be your center square or show up in multiple squares of your item. Since the idea is to stimulate and encourage your creative side, please, no fussy-cutting out of fabric pieces and no panels. That would be no fun and we wouldnt be able to admire your wonderful work and imagination, would we?
New projects or works-in-progress welcome.
This will be an ongoing challenge so join us anytime and introduce us to your newest buddy.
This challenge has been approved by PatriceJ.

I created this layout using items from the August Scraps of Elegance kit. I also added two chipboard items from Dusty Attic. This photo is of my daughter Rylee. We were inspired by the Taylor Swift video for her Safe and Sound song.
Here is a close up shot of one of the Flourish #8 Chippies. I coated mine with Gesso and stamped the surface.
I had purchased these beads to put on my pins, but the holes were much too large, so they have been sitting and sitting, until I got this idea to string them on ribbon!!
This chippie is covered in green distress ink and sprayed with green and gold mists. This is one of the frames from the Scroll Frame Set.
Tip: To create the torn paper look I used a craft knife and cut out the strips and then distressed and inked the edges.
Thanks for stopping by and God Bless!!

Sioux Falls Police Officer Shoots, Kills Attacking Dog
A dog that charged a Sioux Falls police officer was shot and killed Wednesday as the officer was checking out a domestic assault report.
The officer was at an address on South Second Avenue just after 3pm and was talking to the residents when the dog charged him from inside.
The officer tried to close a gate to keep the dog away, but police say he had to shoot it to keep from attacking.
The dog died at a veterinarian's office. The officer had minor injuries.

Have you ever tried to figure out what your cat is thinking?
Well, according to a few different articles, the way your cat touches your face, looks at you, and moves their body says a lot about how they feel about you.
Paws On The Face
I have always wondered this with my cat - he constantly tries to put his paws on my face and hang out. What's that all about? According to Cuteness, if your cat touches your face with one or both paws, it's gesturing that it loves you. The cat's ears will also point to the side of their head, and they will purr. They may even touch their forehead against you.
Pitter Patter Paws
Does your cat ever run around on you when you're trying to sleep? Or jump all over you when you're working on something? They may be signaling that they want something, like food for example. Cuteness says that they may tap their paws on you over and over to try and get your attention. Occasionally, they may also nip at you.
Twitching The Tail
According to VetStreet, the tail, much like a dog's tail, is a mood barometer. They say that the tail will puff out when they are frightened or agitated. If your cat has kind of a lazy twitchy tip, that means the cat is happy and they are happy.
It's All In The Ears
According to PetFinder, the ears forward means they are feeling content or playful. Ears straight up mean the cat is alert, ears turned back may mean that they are frustrated or over-stimulated. Ears turned sideways or back may mean they are nervous or anxious, and flat against the head means totally and completely scared. Keep your eyes peeled on your cat's ears, and they'll tell you a lot about the mood!
Watch Those Blinks
On The Cut, they mention that Gary Weitzman's book How To Speak Cat: A Guide To Decoding Cat Language, "The slow blink really is an acceptance gesture," Weitzman said. "They do that when they're absolutely comfortable with you, and they do it with other cats as well... it's likely an autonomic response … having to do with the cat having its cortisol [stress hormone] levels down."
Next time you are hanging out with your cat, take in how they behave and you should be able to understand them better!

TALLAHASSEE, Florida (Reuters) - The Florida Senate sent Governor Rick Scott a bill on Thursday designed to reduce the state's exposure to catastrophic financial losses from a hurricane by gradually steering homeowners away from the state-run Citizens Property Insurance Corp.
The Senate had earlier backed a tougher bill that would have charged new Citizens enrollees much higher premiums, but it backed down after the House of Representatives passed its own measure protecting consumers from price hikes.
The new bill creates a "clearinghouse" to ease customers back into the private insurance market, and phases in a $700,000 cap on property-damage insurance for homes insured by Citizens.
Citizens CEO Barry Gilway called the bill "a great tool in our effort to return Citizens to its original purpose as the insurer of last resort."
Originally envisioned as an insurer of last resort, Citizens has been left holding more than 1.3 million policies, making it the state's largest insurer with about 20 percent of the entire property insurance market.
In recent years, the large private insurance companies have drastically reduced their exposure in the state after Hurricane Andrew hit south Florida in 1992 and following two busy storm seasons in 2004 and 2005.
Florida insurers and homeowners have enjoyed a breather since then with no named storms making landfall, albeit with two near misses - Isaac and Sandy - last year.
Florida property insurance has been one of the most hotly debated and heavily lobbied issues in legislative history.
Some in the insurance industry say Citizens charges below-market rates that unfairly price private insurers out, and have issued dire warnings about Citizens being under funded, as well as the state's Hurricane Catastrophe Fund, which acts as a safety net in case of extreme losses.
Legislators from inland cities also worry that their residents would get hit with premium assessments under the current insurance system if the state's coverage is overwhelmed by damages from a future monster hurricane.
Coastal lawmakers have argued that the state's economy, including construction jobs, banking, real estate values and tax revenue will suffer if their residents can't afford to cover their homes.
"Through the clearinghouse, many policyholders will be able to find more comprehensive coverage at a lower price in the private market," said Citizens CEO Barry Gilway. "That, in turn, reduces the likelihood and amount of assessments all Florida policyholders face in the event of a major storm."
The clearinghouse requires new homeowners to accept coverage by a private company if it offers a rate less than 15 percent more than the rate Citizens currently charges. In the case of Citizens policy renewals, homeowners only have to accept the offer of a private company if it can match the rate.
The current $2 million limit would be cut in half immediately, if Scott signs the bill, and there would then be a year-by-year "step down" provision of $100,000 annually until the $700,000 cap is reached.
"It's a good bill," said Republican Senator David Simmons, who has worked on Citizens through the two-month session. "We're not getting a whole loaf here, members, but we're getting a lot - call it 'Citizens lite.'"
Donovan Brown, regional counsel for the Property Casualty Insurers Association of America, said the state still has a long way to go.
"While the legislation is intended to impede the perpetual and rapid growth of Citizens, much work needs to be done to address the current exposure and rate inadequacy of Citizens," Brown said in a prepared statement issued after the bill passed. "Citizens remains too large and still exposes Florida policyholders to a hurricane tax."

[Update: Microsoft has confirmed the pricing in a news release, though the pre-order page is not yet live.
Update 2.0: And the pre-order page is now live.]
Microsoft appears to have inadvertently revealed the pricing for its upcoming Surface tablet earlier than planned. TechCrunch spotted a pre-order page for the Windows RT version of the Surface on Microsoft's online store, which has since been pulled down.
But if the numbers are right, the Surface will be competitively priced. The 32 gigabyte model was listed at $499 without the Touch Cover, which has a built-in keyboard. Adding a Touch Cover brings the price to $599, and a 64-GB model with Touch Cover is $699.
The page doesn't indicate whether the higher-capacity model is available without a Touch Cover. If you buy the Touch Cover separately, it runs $119.99.
The Touch Cover has "soft", touch-sensitive keys, while the Type Cover, with hardware keys, is a $129.99 accessory.
The base, 32-GB model with no touch cover underprices an iPad with the same capacity. Apple sells its 32-GB, Wi-Fi-only tablet for $599, and its 16-GB model is $499.
The Surface RT will only be available with a Wi-Fi connection – mobile broadband isn't an option. Apple's Wi-Fi + 4G iPad models add another $129 to the price.
The Wall Street Journal reported earlier today that Microsoft had place orders for 3-5 million Surface tablets, citing sources among Asian electronics suppliers. Microsoft CEO Steve Ballmer in July said the company expected to sell "a few million" of the tablets this year.
And last night, the company kicked off an ad campaign for the Surface with a snazzy new TV commercial that aired during Monday Night Football.
Microsoft has a launch event for Windows 8 on Oct. 25 in New York, and the operating system and the Surface tablet will go on sale the next day.

195 Little Albany Street
New Brunswick, NJ 08903-2681
Learn about our screening program
to promote early detection for those at high risk of developing lung cancer.
Lung Cancer Awareness Saves Lives
Dr. Jyoti Malhotra shares more on how
lung cancer is being managed and how to prevent it.
Listen In
The Cancer Institute's Dr. John Langenfeld explains the benefits of lung cancer screening in this WOR radio interview. Click here to listen
The Lung Cancer/Thoracic Oncology Program is a multidisciplinary clinical and scientific group designed to offer a full spectrum of the latest, most advanced treatments for patients with cancer of the lung, pleura and mediastinum.
The program provides comprehensive and compassionate care to patients through a dedicated team of thoracic surgeons, radiologists, radiation oncologists, medical oncologists, pulmonologists, pathologists, nurses, social workers, and a nutritionist, who work together to treat patients with cancers originating in the chest and lung (small cell lung cancer and non-small cell lung cancer), mesotheliomas, thyomas and upper esophageal cancers.
Lung Cancer Screening
The Program offers lung cancer screening and surveillance for those who are at high risk for developing the disease due primarily to past or current smoking habits and/or a history of chronic lung disease. Members of the Lung Cancer/Thoracic Oncology Program participated in the National Lung Cancer Screening Trial (NLST), which showed that screening for lung cancer was more effective with a CT scan of the chest rather than with a chest x-ray. Radiologists of the program were participants in this nationwide study and are available to read a patient's low dose screening chest CT if completed at one of the program's radiology offices.
Customized Treatment
Patients of the Lung Cancer/Thoracic Oncology Program are evaluated for clinical needs and for surgical, radiation therapy and chemotherapy options as well as opportunities for participation in clinical trials. Multimodality treatments are planned together, and approaches for optimal local control and symptom treatments are designed.
The Latest Clinical Trials
As a National Cancer Institute-designated Comprehensive Cancer Center, patients treated at Rutgers Cancer Institute have access to the latest clinical trials and treatment options, some of which are only available at NCI-designated cancer centers.The team is actively involved in developing innovative approaches and participates in national and international clinical trials and works to bring new agents into clinical trials in thoracic cancer.
Get Help Quitting Tobacco
Rutgers Cancer Institute of New Jersey offers an on-site, nationally-recognized tobacco treatment program through the Tobacco Dependence Program. The Program's experts meet with individuals to discuss tools available to help them quit and work together to develop an individualized plan to stop smoking.
Members of the Lung Cancer/Thoracic Oncology Program team are experts in the treatment of advanced disease, regionalized disease and the prevention and screening of lung cancer.

Zuska would have loved the Dembski Q&A. For this Q, another young lady stepped up to the mic to grill Dembski, and she dun good :) **
Young lady-- Its generally agreed in the scientific community that in order to be considered a scientific theory, as you stated earlier in your lecture, you have to be able to disprove it. You said Darwin said "My theory is wrong if you can find something irreducibly complex." Well, potentially there has to be a way for you to disprove it. How can one potentially disprove ID?
Dembski-- Well I, you know I, I think ehhh, if you look at some of these systems that again I, I, I, ID people have identified, theyre just a backbone. Eh. Eeeeeh. When Richard Dawkins says biologists study these complicated things that give the appearance of being designed with a purpose, he means to deny that there is any actual design there. At best what youre seeing is an APPEARANCE of design. Theres no actual design that exists. So the burden of the Intelligent Design person is not to show that EVERYTHING is designed in biology. Its enough to show that SOME things are designed in biology. So if Michael Behe can show that some structure in one of your cells is designed, then that cell is designed and you are designed! As it applies up.
*rabble rabble*
So, so, so you, this is one of the STRENGTHS of Intelligent Design Theory, is that you can tease apart the effects of design in principle. No Intelligent Design person is denying that Darwins theory has no scope of applicability. What we are denying is that it is a total account of all biological diversity. So what we're doing is finding individual systems which were designed, and argue for them.
What would it take to knock down the biggest icon of Intelligent Design? A detailed, testable, fully articulated, step-by-step pathway to the flagellum. And not just by pointing to a type 2 secretion pathway, show HOW... you dont actually, you dont actually have to reproduce the history... but show how it might have happened. But its gotta be DETAILED. And TESTABLE. I mean that, if you could show a Darwinian path to get there, I think that would be devastating for Intelligent Design.
I mean to say Intelligent Design is not testable, it doesnt ring up at all...
to be continued...
This Q&A--
- Dembski is full of shit. People have disproved Behes crap over and over and OVER and EVERY time they add a new 'pathetic' level of detail that must be attained before theyll accept evolution. Its a facade for the Creationists-naive-- "Hey, ID is falsifiable, but I guess scientists havent falsified their claims yet..."
- But just wait, Dembski screws up fantastically later in the Q&A-- This was just an appetizer turd. There is still a big meal and dessert Q&As where this theme pops up again :)
- So if a 'molecular motor' is 'designed', but everything else in the cell looks like it evolved, the cell is designed. Humans carved Mt. Rushmore, therefore, humans made South Dakota. Fantastic. What a lovely bit of slither-logic for Creationists! All they have to do is show that one teensy-tiny something is designed, and all of evolution is falsified! HURRAY! This would work out great for them if they could establish something was designed...
** SERIOUSLY you guys, I didnt notice it being this bad while I was there, but trying to transcribe every stutter and bumble and eeeeeeeeermehehmehem of Dembski is frustrating! He does it for like 30 seconds straight sometimes!! What the hell is his deal????

Gluten Free Southern Vegetarian Recipes: Pan Fried Cornmeal Flour Okra Recipe
Although Southern food does not exactly scream either vegetarian OR gluten-free, as a Northwestern girl, I've always had a crush on its hearty, stick-to-your-ribs style cuisine. Of course, done the traditional way most recipes are too heavy or non-veg for my taste, so I have found my own take on the traditional that suits my house, whether it's lightened gluten-free biscuits using Pamela's mix, a vegetarian gumbo, or vegan gravy. The DH has a fondness for okra which I haven't always understood, but it is also a classic Southern ingredient, and I have to say, prepared in a tasty okra Indian dish or done Southern style, this unassuming little vegetable starts to make my heart pitter-patter a little faster too. This recipe is a light take on the classic fried okra that I think might make you change your mind about okra too, so the next time you see some in the supermarket, why not pick some up and try it for yourself?
Gluten Free Fried Okra Recipe
12 pods okra, sliced in 1/4 inch pieces
1 egg, beaten
2 tbsp. milk (dairy or non dairy) with a firm squeeze of lemon juice
1/2 cup cornmeal
1/4 cup brown rice flour
1/4 cup potato starch
1/4 teaspoon seasoning mix of your choice with salt
1/4 teaspoon ground black pepper
1-2 tbsp olive oil
After letting lemon juice make milk curdle slightly, add to whisked egg (or egg replacer egg) and whisk together. Add Okra and let sit for 10 minutes or so.
Combine dry ingredients and put in bag with okra. Shake until okra is coated.
Heat oil in nonstick pan. Add okra and fry on each side until brown. Add a little more oil if you need it. (Or start with 1 tbsp, spread evenly in pan and add second tablespoon after you turn/shake the okra to fry the other side.)
Cool, sprinkle with more salt, and enjoy!

A veteran yet young Flying Dutch team should again contend for a Michigan Intercollegiate Athletic Association (MIAA) championship. The 2011 Flying Dutch, under third-year coach Nate Price, finished second in a close conference race and posted an overall 14-8 dual match record.
Coach Price has guided the Flying Dutch to back-to-back second place MIAA finishes. His teams have posted a 30-16 dual match record, including a streak of 14 consecutive victories during the 2010 season.
This year's team consists of seven returning letterwinners, but there are no seniors on the roster. There are five juniors, three sophomores and two freshmen.
Co-captains of the team are juniors Melissa Bieri of Holland (Holland Christian HS) and Shelby Schulz of Allegan (Allegan HS).
Junior Leah LaBarge of Hudsonville (Hudsonville HS) was an All-MIAA second team honoree. Other returning letterwinners are junior Casey Baxter of Saline (Saline HS), sophomore Stephanie Huffman of Grand Rapids (Forest Hills Eastern HS), junior Andrea Pickelman of Marshall (Marshall HS) and sophomore Mallry Smith of Grand Haven (Grand Haven HS).
The indoor portion of the season will include two matches at Hope's six-court DeWitt Tennis Center. The annual spring break schedule will take the Flying Dutch to Orlando, Fla.
Hope athletic facilities will soon be joined by a new outdoor tennis complex. The courts will be located close to Hope's DeWitt Tennis Center and will consist of 12 courts, an officials' shelter and elevated seating for spectators. Construction of the new complex is expected to be completed by next summer.

2006-2007 Accord 6spd Sedan
I've been considering an 06 or 07 Accord 6spd sedan. It's somewhat of a rare car and i like it's looks but i'm getting mixed opinions. I drove one over the weekend and was impressed by it's performance. Does anyone out there own one of these or shed some light on this car?
I've never heard a bad thing about that car. It takes an already "sporty" family car and takes it a step further. A poor-man's Acura TL.0
I would take this thing over a TSX anyday. Seems like everywhere i turn there's a TSX. It's the same for Accord too but there weren't too many 6 spd sedans built.
Does anyone know how many were produced in 06 and 07?0
blufz1 Posts: 2,045I prefer this size over the newer,larger accords. Well proven engine and no auto trans. to worry about. So what's not to like? Just find a well maintained example that was not driven hard.0
greenice Posts: 41I have an 06 and love it. Not a single problem in almost 3 years.
It is fast, quiet, and surprisingly economical (I average 27 or mpg in 70% highway / 30% city driving). Moreover, I much prefer its size over the bloated current iteration.
Highly recommended!0
I'm looking for one as we speak. It's not that easy though. Because so few were built i'll probably have to pick one up out of state probably CA, NV or FL. It's definetely a fast car. As you stated, i'll be looking for a clean low mileage 6 spd.
I've had this car since Sept '06 and I still look forward to getting into it each time. I also decided on this car over the TSX mainly because of the power and size advantage, and the fact that there are barely any on the road. I have only seen 4 other ones on the roads over the last 2+ years at various cities along the east coast. The TL was in contention, too, but the price gap was too much at the time.
The nice thing is that it's not too flashy, so you stay under the radar. But, with the 17" type-s wheels and the dual exhaust, it's sporty enough to appreciate. I put the deck lid spoiler on mine and I was amazed at the styling it adds. The shifter is great...However, the only gripe I have is that on colder days before the car is warmed up, I notice a kink when trying to shift into 3rd. This happens maybe once a month on average, and it's an observation I also read about for a prior testing of a civic si.
The poor man's TL is definitely a good way to put it. The TL gets the edge in handling and a tighter suspension, but they're equally as quick because the TL has extra pounds to pull with it's bigger engine. If I drive like a jerk, my MPG's are around 22-23, but they usually hover in the 25-26 range, and 30 on the highway.
My one piece of advice would be to find one with the navigation option. That definitely adds to the looks of the interior and it's just fun to have! The fake carbon fiber looks really good in it too. I've had plenty of people get into it who were very impressed and surprised it was just an Accord.
All in all, it's an awesome car. Plus, the pudgy new Accords are ugly and don't offer the V6 with a manual anyway, so that's no fun. You're right when you say they're not easy to find. The dealer near me had two when I purchase mine, neither of which were in the color I wanted, so I had to drive 3 hours away to get the one I really wanted. Good luck in the search....you won't be sorry!
On a slightly separate note, it's coming time that I need new tires. I would like to get a slightly better handling tire...has anyone swapped out the factory tires for something else that they recommend?
...Sorry about the rambling!...I just knew I wanted this car the first time I saw it was available in this setup....and I have never regretted the decision.0
I would like to get a slightly better handling tire...has anyone swapped out the factory tires for something else that they recommend?
I have an '06 Accord Sedan (EX, I-4) with the stock Michelins. I'll be replacing them with the tires I currently have on my '96 Accord Sedan (LX, I-4); Bridgestone G009 tires. They are a High-Performance All-Season tire. Still fairly comfortable, a bit noisier than some touring tires, but grip extremely well in the dry, and do just fine in the wet, too.
Just a suggestion!
Best of luck in your tire-shopping.0
Thanks for this info. I'm curious, what color did you want and what color did you end up getting?
If i still lived in CA i would get blk on blk. I'm living in CO for now and i think road chips would be real obvious on this color. I've seen a couple here in town but not very many. A neighbor had a charcoal colored one with a spoiler, tint and fog lights and i went crazy every time i saw it.
I drove one about 2 weeks ago and and i was impressed. It's such a fast car. There are only a few things that set it apart like the wheels and red insert in the V6 emblem. I'd like the silver with grey interior but silver with black seems to be available far more than the color combo i'm looking for. I'm like you, i wanted one from the time i knew this set up was available.0
I wanted the graphite pearl (probably the charcoal you're talking about?) and that's what I ended up getting. It has the gray interior, which I guess was my preference! I traded in an '01 Accord black on black, which looked nice, but I'm in FL, so the black interior got a little too hot. I remember the silver one that was in the Motortrend comparison a couple of years ago...that was a sharp looking car, and I don't think you can go wrong with the black interior.
I want the fog lights, but I'm having a hard time justifying the $250 plus installation for them! I've seen knock-offs on ebay for well under $100, but I've also heard that the wiring needs some modification, which is over my head and I'm not sure how much more that would add to professional installation. Has anyone had success with the JDM foglights or similar?0
I love the graphite color, so much that I chose it!

Graphite is an interesting color and people says it's blue, grey, black, etc... i don't even know what color it is!0
bvdj84 Posts: 1,724This model of the Accord still looks very classy, nice looking. I really like that color too. A new model sometimes doesn't always look any better. This car will continue to hold its own.
I have always been impressed with the 4cyl Accord engine, I could imagine the V6 with a 6spd would be an excellent combination.0

Launch Pad Achievement Center
The Launch Pad Achievement Center would be dedicated to providing educational support and assistance to youth of all ages.
Our Early Childhood Education programme for children 2-4 years old will focus on providing children with hands-on learning activities that support cognitive, social, emotional and spiritual growth. One of the goals of the programme would be to hire and train Caymanians to be early childhood workers.
Our Tutoring programme in both one-on-one and in group settings for children of all ages would cover a wide variety of subjects.
would provide academic support for a wide-range of subjects with emphasis on English and Math. We would like to employ Caymanian students who have demonstrated academic excellence and who are interested in assisting younger students and peers in strengthening their academic performance.
Our Mentorship programme for teenagers from 14-18 years old
would provide one-on-one mentoring to a group of hand-picked Caymanians identified as having the potential but lacking the support needed to develop to their full potential. Mentors would be responsible for demonstrating positive values and helping students identify and develop their strengths in order to help them become productive, caring, and compassionate members of our community.
Our target audience would include families with children and teenagers, members of society interested in being involved in mentoring and the children and teenagers themselves.
We want to appeal heavily to young families and families where additional educational and family type support would be beneficial.
We are looking for a brand identity which builds on the name Launch Pad Achievement Center. We've thought perhaps a launch pad with a rocket - maybe a couple of planets or moon. We'd like to include 3 stars in the logo as it's symbolic of the 3 islands which make up the Cayman Islands - it's also on our flag which you can probably Google.
We'd like if the logo looked like a kids drawing with heavy black borders and the look of crayon coloring inside shapes - using vibrant colors - matching solar planets if used - we like orange, yellow, maybe dark purple, teal - but please be creative here - we are open to suggestions.
We would include the logo on our website, a sign outside the school, uniform shirts, etc. Uniform tops will include polos and t-shirts - we thought maybe yellow and orange - open to additional suggestions - light colors but not pastels.
We'd like to include a logan and are open to suggestions - we've thought of things like:
- Reach for the stars
- Soar to new heights
- Blast off to greatness

Raising the debt ceiling
The other day, I had the unfortunate experience of listening to the president of the United States of America. You can't miss him. He's on the radio and TV. He's always making a speech somewhere. When he does, he usually exposes his ignorance. Case in point, he said, "Raising the debt ceiling limit will not add one dime to the national debt."
Just how dumb does he think we are? I'm pretty sure he went to college.
Obviously he had no math or economics classes. He's a poster child for our failed educational system. One class he didn't miss was public speaking. He should have aced that class.
Let me explain the national debt to you, Obama students. Our government spends approximately $1 trillion per year more then we bring in to the government in taxes.
Thus, we need to borrow this money each year just to operate. We pay the interest on the $17 trillion we presently owe, but to operate, we need to borrow this $1 trillion each and every year.
The balance on the national debt goes up each day. This is why we have to increase the debt limit. So when he says that the debt limit will not cost us one dime, that is an out and out lie, unless he is that dumb.
Let me put this in simple terms. When you pay the minimum on your credit card and you go out and spend an additional $1,000 on it per month, your balance will increase until you are finally in bankruptcy.
Now, for you people who actually believe what he says, there is one difference between you and I, and the federal government. They can print money. We, as a country, are basically broke.
We'll never pay off the trillions that we owe. To pay off the national debt you'd have to balance the budget first, and cut from there to pay down the balance on the national debt.
Anyone who believes this will happen is living in a fantasy world. The Founders of this country could see this coming. The original purpose of government was not to take care of everyone.
That's why, for the first 150 years, we were not in debt.
If you think our national debt is bad now, wait until we have a few years of Obamacare.
This is such a mess, not even the best economist can estimate what this will cost.
The Federal Reserve has started printing money to cover our debt. They really have no other choice. Luckily, they have done this fairly slowly. However, one of these days this will get out of control. When this happens, the dollar in your pocket won't be worth the paper it is printed on.

Yep! After years of scrimping and saving every penny (many of which came from MOTHER EARTH NEWS' Lifetime Subscribers), we have finally made a land purchase—622.4 acres of beautiful mountains and valleys and streams and lakes and clearings and shady groves and ferny dells and pastures and woodlands and old log cabins not very far from our home offices in Hendersonville, North Carolina.
The variety of elevations (running from 2,080 to 2,720 feet above sea level), soil, native flora and fauna, etc., that you'll find on this nearly-mile-square piece of property is incredible.
And if you've been reading this magazine any length of time at all, you've probably already got an inkling of the passively solar heated underground dwellings, biodynamic gardens, self-contained hydroelectric systems, wind plants, and other environmentally-oriented installations that we'll soon be making on this land.
The idea, in short, is to tap the best and most inventive minds of the world (many of whom you've already seen featured in this magazine's pages) to construct a showplace "Community of the Future:" a food self-sufficient, energy self-sufficient village that "rests lightly" on the surrounding countryside; a delightful place in which to live, filled with inhabitants who couldn't care less if the Arabs shut off the oil, the coal miners go on strike, or the nation's truckers refuse to haul food across state lines.
Or, to put it another way: We (and you) already know that $100,000 homes can be constructed for $20,000, and that once you move into such a dwelling, the house can be heated and cooled forevermore for no more than $15 or $20 a year. And that it's extremely fulfilling (rather than a chore) to grow far more healthful food for your family yourself than any supermarket will ever sell. And that it's better (and easier) to set up your own home business than to punch a time clock. And that communities—once again—can be designed and built for people instead of cars. And we (and you) know many other related things for no other reason than that we've all read about them in this magazine.
But just publishing a story about a passively solar-heated house here and a successful home business there and a new wholistic gardening breakthrough somewhere else isn't good enough anymore. If we ever hope to rub this society's nose in the fact that life can be different, and better, and more environmentally oriented, and more satisfying in the bargain, we're just going to have to bring all of these good things together in one spot at the same time for everyone to see firsthand.
And that's exactly what MOTHER EARTH NEWS' Community of the Future is all about. And we're well on our way to making it a reality. And we expect to keep right on financing this work very largely the same way we've been financing it in the past: with the revenues we receive from the sale of lifetime subscriptions to this magazine.
So if you've ever thought about signing up for a lifetime of MOTHER EARTH NEWS, this is the time to do it (just as 3,003 other good people have already done).
Your investment, remember, does three things: [l] It makes it just that much easier for us to keep publishing still bigger and better issues, [2] it assures you of receiving every one of those issues that you're entitled to for as long as there is a magazine (forever, we hope!), and [3] it helps us finance the Environmental Research Center that we're already starting to build on our lovely piece of land.
That's really stretching today's shrinking dollar and, in return for your non-refundable contribution, you will receive [I] every issue that is printed for as long as you live, [2] recognition—unless you request otherwise—in this magazine, [3] a genuine Certificate of Thanks, [4] your name—unless you request otherwise—listed permanently at the Center as one of The People Who Made This Research Center Possible, and [5] the satisfaction of becoming part of, we hope, Something That Counts.
ONE FINAL NOTE: Inflation, as you know, is really starting to get out of hand here in the United States (and in other parts of the world) and all signs point to even worse inflation in the years ahead. This, then, is the last time you'll ever have a chance to take advantage of the current bargain price for yourself or for anyone that you want to give the "best possible" Christmas present to this year.

(Phoenix, Ariz. – Sept. 12, 2008) Attorney General Terry Goddard announced that Victor Varela, 23, of Columbus, New Mexico, was sentenced today to two-and-a-half years in prison, followed by seven years probation, in a major arms trafficking case.
Varela was arrested in Tucson on April 2. He pleaded guilty to one count of fraud and one count of forgery in Maricopa County on July 10.
"This successful prosecution demonstrates the strength of the cross-border law enforcement partnerships my Office has established over the past year," Goddard said. "Eliminating the criminal syndicates that traffic weapons, drugs and human cargo across the border is critical to ensuring the security of Arizona's families and neighborhoods."
In September 2007, Varela fraudulently purchased two .50 caliber rifles for more than $6,700 through a confidential informant in Maricopa County. Varela also asked the informant to purchase several handguns and attempted to purchase a fully automatic M-60 machine gun for $30,000. Several weapons connected to Varela have been traced to crimes committed in Mexico by drug cartels.
"I appreciate the excellent work done on this case by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives as well as the U.S. Marshall's office," Goddard said. The case is the result of a joint investigation by the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, the U.S. Marshal's Office and the Attorney General's Office. Assistant Attorney General Patrick Zinicola prosecuted this case.
Last month, Goddard signed anti-trafficking agreements with the Sonoran and Baja Attorneys General. These agreements outline the states' commitment to create a law enforcement exchange and training program, improve information sharing and investigation techniques and establish a task force on Internet crimes against children.

Back in March, the world was buzzing with the news that BICEP2, a telescope situated at the South Pole, had picked up signals from the universe's first trillionth of a trillionth of a trillionth of a second.
The results were a breakthrough, touted by some as the biggest discovery of the century, and they offered a resolution to one set of cosmic mysteries and a brand new window into another. Champagne corks were popped, Nobels were predicted, and "B-mode polarization" became — for a moment at least — the subject of dinner table and water cooler conversation.
But then things got messy.
The BICEP2 discovery had been announced to the press and public before they'd been subjected to formal peer review. An informal peer review began, online and offline, as scientists around the world pored over the BICEP2 team's results. What they found seemed to put the whole enterprise on the brink of fiasco.
BICEP2's mission, like that of a handful of other experiments with which it is in friendly competition, is to pick out an extremely faint signal in the cosmic microwave background (CMB) radiation, an echo of the moment when our baby universe first cooled enough for light to travel through it.
Researchers have been probing the CMB for decades, discovering in its tiny temperature variations the seeds that later grew into galaxies and galaxy clusters. BICEP2 and its competitors were looking for something even tougher to observe: a peculiar, "twisty" sort of light called B-mode polarized radiation.
Physicists think that, right after the Big Bang, the universe blew up to a hundred trillion trillion times its size or more in a fraction of a second. This sudden mushrooming is called cosmic inflation (which, I think you'll agree is a better name than "cosmic sudden mushrooming"). At the same time, space itself was fizzing with quantum fluctuations. These fluctuations, the thinking goes, grew into gravitational waves that rippled through space, stamping the CMB with a characteristic polarization pattern.
The trouble is that there are other ways to get a similar polarization pattern. In particular, dust in our own galaxy could mimic the "primordial" signal that astrophysicists are after.
The BICEP2 team thought of this, and tried to rule out the possibility based on preliminary data from a space telescope called Planck. But critics, including some close to the Planck team, argued that the BICEP2 team's analysis of this still-unpublished data might have significantly underestimated the dust — and, therefore, overestimated the strength of the primordial signal.
Now, the BICEP2 team has finally published the controversial result in the journal Physical Review Letters.
They stand behind their conclusion, but they've introduced a major fudge factor, opening up the possibility that their result is due to dust. Unable to pin down the uncertainty in the Planck sky map, they've excluded it from their analysis. To find out whether BICEP2 was a breakthrough or a botch, we'll have to wait for other telescopes to weigh in on the matter and for a deeper analysis from BICEP2. (Observations at different wavelengths can reveal more about the true source of the signal.)
Some commentators are calling this cautionary tale, a story of over-eager physicists rushing to make results public without sufficient scrutiny. These critics argue that the episode undermines public trust in science and scientists.
But I disagree.
After all, science isn't just a series of right answers. (How boring that would be!) Science is a process. And now, we all have a front-row seat to watch it happen.

Hello there! Thought I would pop by with another Mother's Day card to share! Yes a second card share from me in a week! My card class has brought back the love of paper crafting for me! I think the break did me good, with being so busy with wreaths if I take a break from creating wreaths to make a card I know exactly what I want to make and I create so much faster! While I did take a break from paper crafting, I didn't take a break from shopping I have a lot of unopened stuff today I am sharing a card this stamp set by Clearly Besotted Elegant Butterflies. This is my first set by them, I like it, it's a bigger set for not that much extra. While you all know how much I love flowers, my first love is butterflies. I find stamping backgrounds with stamps to be relaxing, to save time I "assigned" each butterfly a clear block and a color so no cleaning and messing up colors:
I used Hero Arts inks: Mint, Pale Tomato, Peach, and wet cement. I added the Mom die cut by Simon Says Stamp (doubled the cardstock than die cut kinda hard to get this intricate die cut out, maybe I wish it was thicker font) and anchored it with a velum strip. A pretty simple card but pretty.
Well it's a rainy gloomy day here! Chad drove Ariel to school this morning and than realized that she forgot her backpack! So he came back and is driving it to her, did I mention it's a 20 minute drive one way? :< I am off to work on some wreaths! My shop is even busier this week! :>

Greetings, I am restoring a 1911 Pedersen size 3 that I acquired in derelict condition. It has a D.P. 3 speed hub and a handlebar change lever that I had to have nickel plated and rivet back together. For some unknown reason the hub was drilled for 36 holes, maybe this was an export model. I had some difficulty locating a suitable Westwood rim but now the whole machine is looking really good and I have 3 remaining problems to sort.
Problem 1 is soldering up the brake cables, for which I think that I need to make a solder pot so that I can use my blowtorch.
Problem 2 is something I have struggled with for the whole of the 7 years since I took on the restoration of this restorer's nightmare, and that is the springs that go behind the seat. - Where oh where can I obtain a set of suitable springs because I only have 2 originals and their fixings are almost worn through?
Problem 3 is the adjustment of the 3 speed hub to run correctly without play.
I have restored many bicycles and I can certainly recognise quality when I see it. This is very definitely something that is absent in the construction of my 1911 machine where the frame has been built out of line and bent into the correct alignment. The hub gear seems to be very difficult to service and repair with its myriad locking rings and left and right hand threads. The quality of the original plating on the machine is very poor, thin and applied directly over steel rather than over copper.
One other challenge that I had was finding brake eyebolts to replace the larger than standard type after one of mine was lost by the platers. I had a batch made in stainless steel so if anyone needs one of these, I would be able to supply them. Has anyone had any springs made in the various lengths?

In Lauren Roche's paintings, like the best portraiture, there exists a story found in discrepant details. Amidst heavily applied broad stroke of paint and drips, black dots appear to be lactating from human and animals, insinuating teets as opposed to breasts. Teeth are bared in grinless maws not typically associated with people or their pets. And yet there exists an honest and humble beauty in Roche's rendering of her subjects. Explaining that many subjects are taken from faces of friends and pets, as well as old photographs used for reference, the Minneapolis-based artist adds,
"The figures in my images are facets of my subconscious and take action in a pictorial language and don't transfer into names for me. I like to leave the interpretation of personality up to the viewer, because that's what I do."
Roche's paintings possess a rawness that cannot be denied, balanced in equal measure by a deft rendering of facial expressions. Perhaps the beauty of these paintings comes from their singular nature, and their anachronistic charm, evocative of a different era of capturing images. When asked the purpose of a focus on portraiture, particularly in an uploadable Digital Age, Roche responds,
"The purpose of portraiture is to give the maker and viewer the space for an interpretation of the subject that is private and flexible, fluid and idiosyncratic. Its difficult to compare portraiture to a cell phone picture because the process is so different. Drawing portraits is like a form of meditation and reflection for me and taking a cell phone picture feels more like a superficial gesture to prove that I'm enjoying myself."
Roche's work will be featured in the upcoming Two Dark Horses at Bockley Gallery in Minneapolis, MN, alongside Andrew Mazorol and Tynan Kerr (who when painting collectively go by AMTK, previously featured here) and Lindsay Rhyner. The exhibition, named after one of Roche's paintings (top of page) opens this Friday, March 21st and runs through April 26th, 2014.

Daytime single lane closures are scheduled for Monday, July 22-Thursday, July 25
FREDERICKSBURG – Traffic will be reduced to a single lane on the Robert O. Norris Bridge on Route 3 during daytime hours from July 22-25, 2013.
Northbound and southbound traffic will be directed by flaggers to alternate passing through a work zone between 9 a.m. and 1 p.m.
The work is part of a bridge maintenance project that will be underway through September. The Virginia Department of Transportation (VDOT) is cleaning, rehabilitating, and replacing 34 bridge pins at 6 locations this summer to remove rust that has developed due to environmental exposure. The pins and the attached hangars help the bridge beams absorb the stress of vehicle traffic.
Most of the maintenance work can be accomplished underneath the bridge and outside of travel lanes, but periodic lane closures are needed for the contractor to set up and move a work platform along the bridge, and position its equipment.
The project will have no impact to maritime traffic underneath the bridge.
Click Here to read more on the bridge maintenance project.
The Norris Bridge is located on Route 3 between Lancaster and Middlesex counties, and crosses the Rappahannock River at White Stone.
Motorists can call 511, visit www.511Virginia.org, or use VDOT's 511Virginia free mobile app to find real-time traffic and work zone information in any area of the state.
Information in VDOT news releases was accurate at the time the release was published. For the most current information about projects or programs, please visit the project or program Web pages. You may find those by searching by keyword in the search Virginia DOT box above.

Re: Adjectival Use of Prepositional Phrases
Posted: July 19th, 2012, 9:16 am
Well, the theological implications are that the usual "except" meaning ἐὰν μή makes Gal 2:16 less usable as a proof text for sola fide. This is the unavoidable theological subtext in the exegesis of this verse.Jason Hare wrote:I don't know what the theological implications of this are (I'm not part of that discussion), but it would seem that ἐὰν μή in the case means "but rather," something similar to ἀλλά.
That Smyth section is pretty good at showing the meaning of "except" for ἐὰν μή / εἰ μή.Jason Hare wrote:Are you saying that he argued that it should be understood as εἰ μὴ διά + acc (as in Smyth §2346.c), except that we should understand it as "except through" (genitive) instead of "except for" (accusative)?
Well, that's Jimmy Dunn's proposal (IIRC), right down to the objective genitive. I'm not endorsing it or arguing for it, but just letting you know that it's out there in the academic literature and argued in some detail. As for the scholar who construes the prepositional phrase adjectivally, I forgot who it was and I'd have to look it up. My mention here is also a non-endorsement of the reading--more of a hope that if I eventually track down the article, there may be examples evidencing the proposed syntactical construal.Jason Hare wrote:"A man is not justified from works of the law, except through faith in Jesus Christ."
That's interesting. I never would have thought of that. Again - for another thread. But interesting. Thanks for the suggestion to munch on.

A major FBI-led bust has resulted in the arrests of a multi-national gang alleged to have been involved in the 'Butterfly' botnet that attacked millions of Facebook users and caused $850 million (£530 million) in losses.
In one of the biggest police operations of the year, 11 individuals were arrested in the UK, US, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Croatia, Macedonia, New Zealand, and Peru, the agency announced.
Butterfly is believed to have infected an extraordinary 11 million computers using and instant messaging lure to trick Facebook and other social media users into downloading the 'Yahos' bot malware.
Once compromised, depending on the variant, this opened backdoors that were used to install keylogging software then used to beat online banking security and steal money.
The FBI press release has stated that the attacks occurred between October 2012 and October 2012 although reports of the Yahos malware pre-date the earlier date by at least two months.
One suspect is believed to have been arrested by the Serious Organised Crime Agency (SOCA) in the UK, although this has not been confirmed.
The FBI has had its anti-malware successes in recent times, notably arrests a year ago in connection with the infamous DNSChanger attacks that originated in Estonia.
But as soon as one gang and botnet is downed, another one pops up. The ZeroAccess bot believed to affect as many as 2 million consumers in North America is a recent example. As with Yahos, by the time the evidence trail is strong enough for arrests to be made, much of the damage has been done. The money has been stolen and spent.

This game isn't expressly advertised for newbies, but the small size and no-bastard setup makes it more newbie-friendly. Knowing Zenii the flavor will be interesting too. There's only one slot at the moment, but wam and bessie have both offered their places for newbies.

Intel-based Mac computers use a combination of tones and blinking LEDs to display POST error codes. Some newer Macintosh models only use startup tones to indicate error conditions.
If your Mac detects no Random Access Memory (RAM)—or if the RAM installed doesn't meet specifications—the display remains black but the power LED on the front of the computer (if present) blinks once per second to signal the error. This error condition might be due to physically damaged RAM, incorrect RAM, or not having RAM installed.
Some RAM might appear to pass the POST but still can't be used by the operating system. In this case, your Mac shows a gray display, you hear three tones, and the power LED on the front of the computer (if present) blinks three times, pauses, and repeats until the computer is turned off.
To fix these issues, first re-seat the memory and test the computer. If the memory fails the POST test again, try memory that's been verified to work correctly on another system (i.e., "known-good") or new memory.

"Kenny Powers would stomp me to death," said HBO president Michael Lombardo, when asked to spill some plot points about the upcoming fourth season.
He did offer this: "You'll find Kenny struggling with marriage, suburbia and his continued demons."
Those demons have already fueled three seasons of bawdy antics for the locally filmed series, which premieres its fourth and final season Sept. 29.
Still, it may not be the last we see

Lombardo said he thinks McBride and Hill are "open to not having the characters go into the sunset" completely.
Whatever Kenny's fate, McBride and Hill are continuing their relationship with HBO. Lombardo said the duo are developing a half-hour show about high school.

Anyone who got to see the Red Bull Rookies Cup last year in the AMA series couldn't help but be impressed with Benny Solis who won the Championship. When that series fell apart this year Benny was given the opportunity to continue in the series that still runs in conjunction with MotoGP.
He was interviewed recently on a Spanish language TV program recently, which you can see here: http://www.canal22.tv/segmentos/detail.aspx?id=136&subCategory=3
Friend Of The Strip Cesar Partdia was kind enough to supply us with an English translation:
Benny Solis transcript. (Translated to English)
Shown on KWHY-22 Los Angeles, CA
Sep 20, 2009
Host: We're going to begin with Dianna Alvarado who is meeting a special young man who is only 15 years old.
Dianna Alvarado: Thank you and good evening.
He's breaking speed limits and maintains the high adrenaline level of his family at the edge of their seats. Benny Solis at only 15 years of age has traveled to all over the world to various motorcycle tracks, and today visits us here at Channel 22 so that we can get to know his story.
From Auto Club Speedway Fontana, CA
Benny's Father: He eats, sleeps, drinks riding motorcycles. At breakfast he thinks about riding; all the time.
Benny Solis: My name is Benny Solis and I have 4 years riding motorbikes. I started at 10 years of age. I was 13 years old when I won the U.S. Red Bull rookies cup. I'm now riding professionally. I got here through Red Bull who had a program that assists young riders and have selected me to enter the European series where only 26 of the worlds best riders. I'm one of them.
My dream is to become the fastest. I want to become a World Champion.
Benny's Father: (Coaching Benny) You need to work on this last turn. Hard okay.
As far as speeds go, in the straights he is topping at around 135-140 mph.
Benny Solis: You don't feel it. (Going top speed on the straights) because you're body is tight and you're concentrating on passing the next rider in front of you.
Benny's Father: His talents (Benny Solis) exceed what the bike is capable of
Benny Solis: I was going 170 mph once and fell off. It really hurt and it scared me, but accidents happen in this sport.
Benny's Father: Sometimes I tell him "calm down!"
The ways in which I help him is by being his mechanic, his coach, his friend, and I'm his father.
Benny Solis: He (Benny's father) used to ride, and he knows how to go fast. He studies me, and if I make a mistake he'll go out and tell me and he'll show me what to do.
Benny's Father: He's very well disciplined and an overall good kid. And I'd like to see him become a World Champion.
Dianna Alvarado: Incredible!
Academically his desire to do well in the classroom equals his performance on the track. Math and Science are his favorite subjects and he is earning a 3.9 GPA and is in the 9th grade.
Best of luck to Benny!

Research - The Wolf and The Druidess
By Cornelia Amiri
As I write Celtic/Romances set in ancient times, I'm often asked about my research methods. I love history as much as I love writing. I admit it; I am a history geek, so I read about the ancient Celts through non-fiction books, reports of new archeology finds, and website articles as often as I can, for fun. That helps because in writing fiction you have to be detailed in your research; not only do you have to know about famous battles and main historical events, you need a strong understanding of daily activities and what the seasons were like. Since it is winter I wanted to share some of my research about life during that season for my latest book, a Paranormal/Erotica/Romance, The Wolf and The Druidess.
As the days grew colder, as an ancient Celt, you'll notice salmon returning to spawn in river pools, the last autumn fruit you'll see will be white, waxy mistletoe berries, and you'll watch the men of your tribe herd shaggy red cattle from outlying pastures to an enclosure inside your village.
Oat-porridge will be your main food during winter yet you'll eat some delicious meat from hunting.
As an example, here's a hunting excerpt from The Wolf and The Druidess:
Out of the corner of her eye, Seren noticed a movement and turned her head. She gasped and pointed to a large red stag with long, branching antlers, strutting out of the forest. He dipped his snout to the salt. After taking a lick, he jerked his neck and looked to one side then the other, scanning the area. He leaned down again and took a few licks, then stared straight ahead at Seren; he'd sensed, smelled, spotted her. The stag thrust his rear legs back and bolted towards the woods.
Seren jumped on her horse and goaded it to a gallop. The chase was on to try to head him off and steer him away from the forest, but to everyone's horror the stag managed to shoot pass Cynfarch's mount and dart into the woods. Seren and Gwydion charged into the leafy canopy of the dense forest.
"I wish we had brought the dogs." Seren said to Gwydion as she rode at his side. "But we didn't want to frighten the deer at the salt lick."
"I will transform." Gwydion vaulted off his horse.
As his body twisted and lengthened in some areas and shortened in others, his face distorted with pain until he shifted into a large white wolf, staring at her with burning amber eyes. He raced off, on the trail of the stag as Seren and the other mounted warriors followed.
A wolf's growl pierced the air as they rode on. Seren drew her horse to a halt as she sighted the white wolf, he had cornered the large, antlered deer.
Speaking of meat, especially beef, one of the main ways your tribe prepares for winter is with cattle raids. If your tribe doesn't have enough cattle to get it through the long, cold days the warriors will grab some from a neighboring tribe.
Here's an excerpt of a cattle raid from The Wolf and The Druidess:
"No, he is in danger," Seren snapped.
"It is our only chance. If we lose milk and beef, the entire tribe could starve during the winter." Hywell shook his head.
"What harm could possibly befall me? The Silures cannot hurt me if I turn them to ice, first," Gwydion said.
"My mother would not warn me unless the threat was real," Seren said. "I myself sense danger, but it may not be from the Silures. You must be careful."
"Seren, he is a god," Hywell said.
"Yes, what could happen to me?" Gwydion said.
Rather than answer, she peered into Gwydion's eyes. "Swear to me, you will take heed."
"Yes, I will return to you unharmed." Gwydion pulled his wand from the pouch tied to his side and brandished it high. "I am ready." He swirled the ash stick, decorated with Celtic spirals, through the air in a sweeping motion.
"Foes of the OrdovicesYour raid is condemned.I forbid your flight.Winter's embrace,Shall halt your escape,Frozen like ice.For the tribe to find."
A blue light with the power of a lightning bold shot from the wand. Gwydion knew everyone in the village could feel the surge, and he noticed Seren and Hywell had clung to each other during the mighty blast.
"It is done," he said to them.
"Now you must shift into wolf form," Seren said to Gwydion as she released her hold on Hywell.
After Gwydion eased off his horse, his body blurred from one form to the next as his limbs shortened and his flesh shifted into a pelt of white fur. The wolf stood before Seren once more.Hywell gasped. "Gwydion, do not get too near the cattle, you will spook them."The wolf nodded, and as he darted off, Seren goaded her horse into a hard gallop. Hywell followed.
Of course one of the main things you want to know as an ancient Celt is how you can stay warm on long winter nights.
Here's a heated excerpt from The Wolf and The Druidess:
She leaned up to him and peered at his arresting face, strong chin, compelling eyes, and firm, sensual lips. Her mouth covered his in an all-consuming kiss. His lips tasted like warm honey.
Gwydion raised his mouth from hers and as he peered at Seren, her pulse pounded.
"Does that kiss mean you love me too?" he asked in a low, smooth voice."In truth it does."
As he waved his hand in front of her, Seren's clothing vanished.
She felt cool as she stood nude before him. "That trick of yours isn't fair, but it does hasten things along. And that is good because I can't wait. I need you now.""But I want to go slow, to explore every inch of you," Gwydion said in a deep, masculine tone.
As he scanned her body, she felt the heat of his gaze. As she felt his warm fingers against the small of her back, he pressed his lips against hers. The wet kiss sent a delicious sensation spiraling through her. Easing his mouth off hers, he ran a trail of feathery kisses down her tingling neck.
As far as getting through winter in modern times, take a copy of The Wolf and The Druidess to bed with you along with a cup of hot chocolate on a chilly night. That should warm you up.
For more on The Wolf and The Druidess
Here is a blurb and links for additional information
Blurb:A god leaves the Otherworld and even risks his life...for love.
In days of old, deep in the dark woods, Druidess Seven discovers a wolf shape
shifting into the bare, muscular body of God Gwydion. Her wicked thoughts turn
from the Samhain feast to feasting on Gwydion's yummy goodies. Can their new
found love survive the ultimate long-distance relationship of a god in the
otherworld and a woman on earth? Is the love Seren and Gwydion share strong
enough to overcome the social barrier between an immortal god and a mortal
woman? Will the warning of danger from beyond the grave destroy the sensual
magic brewing between the wolf and the druidess?

BuckleyGrayYeoman's Fred Perry flagship store in Bangkok brings a distinctively British sense of style, refinement and wit to Thailand.
Fred Perry Bangkok extends the design language BuckleyGrayYeoman has rolled out at stores in London, Cardiff and Munich. "The store has been designed with a calm, open approach to layout and a restrained material palette of concrete, black steel and wooden parquet flooring." says BuckleyGrayYeoman. "Yellow tiles of the same type used at London Underground stations create a strongly coloured area towards the rear of the store, drawing customers towards the changing rooms and service desk."
Custom-made shelving boxes run the length of the shop floor, creating a sense of linear continuity towards the back of the store. These boxes feature studded leather sofa seating, another icon of British style.
"We wanted to bring a sense of Britishness to the Bangkok shop without plastering the walls in Union Jacks." says Paul White, Director in Charge of the project at BuckleyGrayYeoman.
"Every element of the shop has been refined and honed to communicate the quality of the brand, from the bespoke shelving and luminaires, to the stripe detail that runs at picture-rail height around the entire shop, which echoes the 'tipping' around the collar and sleeves that is the signature detail of the Fred Perry Shirt."
