Fortunately it was also very rewarding too, because the surrounding countryside is absolutely extraordinary - it's both highly photogenic and also definitely not what most people would expect from Vietnam. There are no dense jungles here, which is the sole stereotype most people have of the Vietnamese countryside. In my time here I saw a variety of landscapes that reminded me of places I have visited around the world, and also the images of some places that I would very much like to visit. The diversity of such a small patch of land is amazing.
The trip down from Saigon on an 'Open Bus' was harmless enough - six or seven hours at speeds ranging from a steady 40km to wild 120km per hour rally race. No doubt the velocity depended on where the police were thought to be, but as it was a large bus we would be on the winning team in most potential collisions, so the handful of passengers settled back to sleep or read and it was all over by early afternoon.
Rural areas we travelled through were certainly poorer than their urban cousins, another example of the central paradox now existing in Communist nations I have recently visited - farmers who were meant to be the backbone of the Marxist revolution (and usually the ones that fought most fiercely) are now the most poverty stricken as these economies belatedly rush towards a market-based economy. Mui Ne (pronounced (pron. Moo Ni) the tourist destination is better off than most - a strip of resorts, restaurants and bars that stretches for kilometres along the coast, ending a few clicks short of the fishing village actually known as Mui Ne.
The village is quite cute with hundreds of colourful fishing boats crushed into a small space in the corner of the bay. The row boats used here a circular jobs made of bamboo matting; quite stable in the water but not very aqua-dynamic, which seems to result in a lot of work and hassle for its driver. Still, they don't tell me how to do my job so I just take pictures, enjoy the view and keep quiet.
My first steps into the wilderness beyond town and the tourist strip were up the Fairy River, a smooth running red stream that cuts a verdant valley through the dry hills around and that has worn magnificent formations in the white stone found below the rich ochre sands of the area. After following the flow for a kilometre or so, walking straight up the shallow river bed, I managed to climb the steep slope to my left which rewarded me with expansive views of the valley all the way to the sea in the distance. The palm-lined riverbanks below reminded me of images I've seen of the Nile wending its way through the deserts of Egypt, and I am looking forward to seeing if this comparison is fair in the coming months.
Venturing further afield the next morning, with a motorcycle guide called Moet, delivered the true reward of the visit. Thirty kilometres out of town and simply known as the 'White Sand Dunes', this collection of immense sand ridges dotted by foliage-ringed lakes induced mirage-like scenes in my mind. The lush green oases punctuating the breath-taking austerity of your typical Saharan desert environment came straight to mind. All I needed was a passing camel caravan and the scene would be complete (although the wedding photo session would have been just a little out of place).
Fortunately it wasn't past midday or the shimmering of heat waves over the sands would have completed the stark but beautiful picture. We trudged across the barren landscape until all footsteps and water features were well behind us, leaving a sea of brilliant white sand and shadows for myself and trusty camera to admire. Small clouds breezing past added character to the shots and eventually when I was done with the aesthetic, I enjoyed a shim or two on a piece of rented plastic down some of the steeper slopes to be found.
These are my two favourite shots. Again, I don't think anyone would expect this of Vietnam but here it is. Bizarre.
Retreating from the growing heat and cruising on the bike for a while seemed like a good idea. Next stop was the red canyon, an eroded area which immediately harkened back to some environments of central Australia, or possibly some canyon areas of the USA. Unfortunately the base is also farming land for some reason, so a lot of the higher ground is inaccessible behind chain link fencing and the lower areas are planted with some crop which makes it difficult to get around. I didn't stay long because of this but I particularly liked some of the Chinese characters carved into the compacted red sand.
Bordering all this are two other distinctive landscapes. For kilometres around further inland the countryside is a desolate expanse of rolling fields which seem to be only lightly grassed but somehow sustain a sizable number of healthy looking cattle. One fellow traveller mentioned that this looked like a summertime Mongolian hinterland of his imagination. For me almost moorland, but just a dash too sunny and hot. Another interesting feature here was the occasional graveyards around, an unordered hodge-podge of aboveground tombs covering a couple of square kilometres, with little consistency in direction or spacing.
The other is the ocean road, beach-lined one side and rolling hills and dunes the other - mile after mile after mile. Very much akin to the one running along the south east coast of Australia, so I was lucky to get some sunshine I think!
The final stop of the expedition was the local pagoda, a character-filled structure the resident monk was only too happy to show me through. I still don't have any idea what most of the ornamentation is meant to symbolise, so maybe I should make that a homework project to complete before exiting China in a few weeks time.
Later in the day the weather worsened making things look a lot more like the Great Ocean Road as each minute ticked by. Still, this seems to be a favoured destination for wind and kite surfers worldwide so as the weather deteriorated, more of them went out. Fascinating to watch over a beer (especially the kite guys), I found solace in the warmth of the bar and looked back fondly on my short time in these diverse and spectacular environments - seemingly so incongruous in this country, at least in my mind.
If you're in the neighbourhood, this place is definitely worth a stop.

Today I'd like to introduce another integral team player and possibly the most handy tool in the universe since the humble Towel (as defined by Douglas Adams' Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy). You wouldn't be reading this without the Sandisk Cruzer mini 1.0Gb USB key.
This little guy gets the finished journal entries from my laptop to the internet via most computers found at the local internet cafe (Windows XP machines are best). With built in drivers and 1Gb of storage, its like a tiny but huge floppy disk of old and can easily carry backups of important information and hold documents sent to your email, often required for later printing. Just plug it into any USB port and upload or download to your heart's content. Don't leave home without one!

Dir. George Romero
Insecure teenager Martin believes he is actually an 84-year-old vampire and that he must drink the blood of humans to remain alive. His belief is reinforced by his elderly cousin, Cuda, with whom he is sent to live. Cuda is convinced vampirism is part of a family curse. Driven by his insatiable blood lust, the frustrated and confused teen is forced to kill and feed, drugging his victims to reduce their suffering before opening their veins with a razor blade. However, his inhuman desires are almost overcome when he begins an affair with a desperate older woman and he starts to question the validity of his self-belief…
Criminally undervalued by audiences and critics at the time of its release, Martin is now generally accepted to be Romero's finest work to date; it's certainly the director's personal favourite of his own movies. With Martin, Romero slyly subverted the haggard conventions of the vampire myth and pretty much reinvented the vampire movie genre; in its wake came films such as The Addiction and The Hunger, in which vampirism was utilised as a metaphor to explore concepts such as addiction and obsession. Romero keeps things ambiguous – we never really find out if Martin is an actual vampire or if he's just an extremely disturbed and confused young man. As the eponymous anti-hero, John Amblas provides a sensitive, sympathetic and moving central performance. There is an interesting dichotomy in his gentle demeanour and the atrocious acts he carries out to sate his appetite for blood – particularly in the film's shocking and blunt opening scene set aboard a night train.
The film has an oddly European feel to it, most notably in the music and art-house editing. The narrative is penetrated by black and white inserts that may be flashbacks to Martin's previous life or flights of fancy he has conjured to lend his current crimes a more romantic edge. The events depicted within them more closely resemble typical traits and recognisable conventions and imagery of vampire flicks – flaming torches, brandished crucifixes and breathless, candelabrum bearing beauties.
Romero touches on the notion that Martin's vampirism is all in his head, and a number of times throughout, Martin himself says that 'there is no magic – it's a disease.' He also has a distinct lack of fangs (his tools are a razorblade and hypodermic needle), and he has no aversion to daylight, garlic or crucifixes.
Interestingly, and rather humorously, he rejects the romanticised ideas of vampires as tortured and tragic lovers – though to an extent that's exactly what his frigidity renders him. Martin's latent necrophilia is explored too, particularly in his timid and burgeoning relationship with bored housewife Mrs Santini (the Elizabeth Perkins-like Elyane Nadeau) and he gradually confesses to being too shy to do 'sexy stuff' with girls, particularly when they are awake. Martin appears to long for human contact, yet he shirks from it when it presents itself. He is essentially crippled by his own repression.
Aside from Martin and his draconian cousin Cuda (Lincoln Maazel), most other people, including Cuda's granddaughter Christina (Christine Forrest aka Mrs George Romero) – the film's only voice of reason - basically believe him to be a simpleton; someone to be pitied not feared. Cuda however sees Martin as pure evil, having inherited his dark inclination from a family curse. He makes Martin's life very difficult and even refers to him as 'Nosferatu'. The tension generated from their various altercations provides the film with some of its most resonant drama. There is something genuinely sinister in the scene where Martin gets his own back, mocking his cousin while dressed as a vampire; complete with swishing cape and false fangs in an empty playground at night.
Interestingly the town where the film is set is depicted as economically and socially archaic. Cuda seems to represent the views of most of the older inhabitants whose old ways and stubborn customs threaten to stunt the growth of the town. The idea of traditional values and small towns dying out because of 'brain-drain' and their failure to move with the times, trapping their inhabitants and stunting their potential is subtly explored through the predicament of Cuda's daughter and her lover (Tome Savini). The film is not without its humour too – notably Romero's cameo as a wine-loving priest and the scene in which Martin prepares to visit a woman whose blood he wants to drink. Black and white scenes of him pursuing her through a huge house as she coyly glances back are intercut with him actually making his way into the house and to her room, only to burst in and find her engaging in extramarital activities with another man. The moment quickly becomes suspenseful however, as Martin struggles to overcome both people. While some of the acting on display in this scene is very uneven, the sight of the pathetic woman feebly trying to call the police is quite taut and Romero wrings every last drop of tension from the moment well.
The languid pace serves to better pull viewers into the story, and events remain utterly compelling - all the way to the blunt, brutal and quietly powerful ending...
Martin is a witty, shocking and intriguing tale of addiction, sexuality, obsession and vampirism as mental illness and latent necrophilia.
Martin (cert. 18) will be released on DVD (£15.99) by Arrow Video on 28th June 2010. Special Features include: the original theatrical cut of the film with 5.1 and Stereo audio options plus a choice of 16:9 and 4:3 aspect ratio presentations; 'Wampyre' – the Italian cut of the film - reputedly edited by Dario Argento - featuring Italian dialogue (with optional English subtitles) and musical score by Goblin; 'Making Martin: A Recounting'; Documentary on George A. Romero; TV and radio spots; original theatrical trailer; photo gallery; four sleeve art options; double sided poster; exclusive collector's booklet; six original poster art postcards.

Add Repetition-level Documentation Directory
https://nees.org/topics/NEESProjectDirectoryStructure currently shows that there is a documentation folder at all levels except for the repetition level. Photos, videos, drawings which a researcher creates and does not manipulate in that same way they would manipulate data should have it's own documentation directory.
I currently have photos taken for different repetitions, but I want future researchers, or users of my project, to be able to easily find those photos. I don't know which of the four data folders would be the correct place to find or place them. A "new" Repetition-level Documentation directory would be the ideal place.

Electrical Burns
Electrical burns occur when a person is directly exposed to an electrical current. Although some electrical burns look minor on the skin, they can cause extensive internal damage, especially to the heart, muscles, or brain. This is a potentially serious condition that requires care from a doctor.
Electrical burns result from accidental contact with exposed parts of electrical appliances or wiring, such as:
- Children biting on electrical cords
- Poking utensils or other metal objects into electrical outlets or appliances, like a plugged-in toaster
- Failing to shut the power supply before making home repairs or installation
- Dropping a plugged-in appliance into water
- Occupational accidents due to, for example, electric arcs from high-voltage power lines. (Electric arcs occur when a burst of electricity jumps from one electrical conductor to another, such as flashes of electricity from the wheels of an electrically powered train or where a trolley car connects to an overhead power line.)
- Lightening strikes
Electrical burns occur when a person is directly exposed to an electrical current. Although some electrical burns look minor on the skin, they can cause extensive internal damage, especially to the heart, muscles, or brain. This is a potentially serious condition that requires care from a doctor.
Classification of Skin Burns Copyright © Nucleus Medical Media, Inc.
Your doctor will ask about your symptoms and medical history, and do a physical exam.
Like other burns, electrical burns have three degrees of severity, each with distinctive symptoms:
First-degree burns—Injury is only to the outer layer of skin. They are red and painful, and may cause some swelling. The skin turns white when touched.
Second-degree burns—These burns are deeper and more severe. They cause blisters and the skin is very red or splotchy. There may be more significant swelling.
Third-degree burns—These cause damage to all layers of the skin down to the tissue underneath. The burned skin looks white or charred. These burns may cause little or no pain because the nerves in the skin are destroyed.
It may be more difficult to diagnosis damage under the skin caused by electricity. Tests may include:
- Electrocardiogram (EKG)—to detect rhythm disturbances of the heart
- Urine or blood tests—to check for severe damage to muscles
To help reduce your chances of an electric burn, take the following steps:
- Use child safety plugs in all outlets.
- Keep electrical cords out of children's reach.
- Avoid electrical hazards by following manufacturer's safety instructions when using electrical appliances. Always turn off circuit breakers before making repairs to wiring.
- Avoid using electrical appliances while showering or wet.
- Never touch electrical appliances while touching faucets or cold water pipes.
- Avoid being out in lightening storms.
Risk Factors
Any exposure to an electrical current is a risk factor for electrical burns.
Symptoms may include:
- Visible burns on the skin
- Muscle contraction or pain
- Numbness or tingling
- Weakness
- Bone fractures
- Headache
- Feeling disoriented
- Low blood pressure
- Seizures
- Heart arrhythmias
If you experience any of these symptoms, do not assume it is due to an electrical burn. These symptoms may be caused by other, less serious health conditions. If you experience any one of them, consult a doctor.
Electricity can also cause cardiac arrest, respiratory failure, and/or unconsciousness.
Electrical burns require an immediate call to paramedics. If possible, shut off the electrical current from its source (such as unplugging a cord or turning off the circuit breaker). Often, simply turning off the appliance itself will not stop the flow of electricity.
If the current can't be turned off, use a nonconducting object, like a wooden broom, chair, rug, or rubber doormat to push the victim away from the source of the current. Don't use a wet or metal object. If possible, stand on something dry and non-conducting, such as a mat or folded newspapers.
Do not attempt to rescue a victim near active high-voltage lines.
Once the victim is free from the source of electricity, check airway, breathing, and pulse and, if needed, start cardiopulmonary resuscitation (CPR) efforts. The victim is covered with a blanket to maintain body heat and feet are raised above the head.
Ice, butter, or ointments, should not be applied.
Anyone with an electrical burn should be taken to the hospital for further evaluation. Treatment will depend on the severity of the burn and any other associated complications.
If you are diagnosed with an electrical burn, follow your doctor's

I have a couple of Facebook friends who frequently repost literature-related birthday announcements from the Writer's Almanac and decided I would follow suit today since there are two French Lit related postings.
The first is Molière. My soft spot for him comes from the fact that I enjoy using a small piece of Le Malade imaginaire with my French students when we are doing a chapter on health and fitness, in which they learn vocabulary of the body, of exercising, and of various diseases (and they learn to say "Professeur, j'ai la grippe!"). I'm grateful to Molière for the ability to actually make them laugh as they begin to comprehend snippets of dialogue between Argan and Toinette. Joyeux anniversaire, M. Poquelin!
The French playwright Molière, born Jean-Baptiste Poquelin (books by this author), was baptized in Paris on this date (1622). Known as the father of French comedic theater, Molière wrote The School for Wives (1662), Tartuffe (1664), and The Misanthrope (1666). Although he poked fun at the peasant and bourgeois classes, he was careful to leave the church and the monarchy alone; as a result, he never ran into trouble, he was a favorite of Louis XIV, and he always had work. He collapsed onstage during a performance in 1673; he finished the performance, but died of tuberculosis later that night. Because was no priest around to administer the Last Rites, he couldn't be buried in consecrated ground. After his widow appealed to the king, Molière was buried in the section of the cemetery reserved for unbaptized babies.
Molière, who said, "All the ills of mankind, all the tragic misfortunes that fill the history books, all the political blunders, all the failures of the great leaders have arisen merely from a lack of skill at dancing."
The second is Marie Duplessis. Now, she is not someone I ever really heard of. I figured as I began reading that she was like any other "courtesan" and her story started to remind me a little of Zola's insufferable (sorry, there's no other word for it) Nana (Lord I hated that book!). But for Duplessis, it's the Dumas Fils connection that I found most compelling. Ah, Violetta, Un di felice, indeed…
It's the birthday of French courtesan Marie Duplessis, born Alphonsine Plessis in Normandy (1824). She was a beautiful young woman: petite, dark-haired, and slim. She was working as a laundress at the age of 13 when her father decided that prostitution paid better. He sent her to live with a rich and elderly bachelor in exchange for cash. After a year, she went to live with cousins in Paris. For a time, she was kept by a restaurant owner, who gave her a place to live in exchange for her favors. It wasn't long before she set her sights higher. She learned to read and write, and she studied a wide variety of subjects so that she could hold her own in any social situation. She started appearing at places where the rich and powerful were likely to be, and she attracted lots of attention.
She suspected she had tuberculosis when she developed a cough that only got worse. She was treated with everything from spa cures to strychnine to hypnotism. And through it all, she kept dressing up and holding salons and going to the opera. Having grown up in poverty, she couldn't get enough of luxury. Noblemen from all over Europe would call on her whenever they were in Paris, and they brought her expensive trinkets, which she sometimes pawned to support herself between lovers.
She began an affair with Alexandre Dumas the younger when they were both 20 years old. He was a struggling writer, and he wasn't able to give her lavish gifts like her other lovers. He kept her with him out in the country for a while, for the sake of her health, but she missed the lively Paris scene and went back to the city after a year. Finally, he couldn't take it anymore, and broke it off with her, writing in a letter, "I am neither rich enough to love you as I could wish nor poor enough to be loved as you wish."
Duplessis never answered Dumas's letter. She was too ill, and she had begun an affair with the composer and pianist Franz Liszt. She wanted Liszt to bring her along on his concert tour, but he was afraid he would catch tuberculosis from her, so he left her behind. He promised to take her to Turkey one day, but he never saw her again. After she died at the age of 23, Liszt regretted not coming to her bedside, and said: "She had a great deal of heart, a great liveliness of spirit and I consider her unique of her kind. […] She was the most complete incarnation of womankind that has ever existed."
Four months after Duplessis's death, Dumas published his novel The Lady of the Camellias (1848). It's the story of a courtesan named Marguerite Gautier, based on Duplessis. She breaks the heart of her lover — Armand Duval — to spare him from ruin. Dumas wrote it in four weeks. It was later made into a play, which in turn inspired Verdi's opera La Traviata (1853).

Republican contenders toured Florida ahead of the January 31 primary, attempting to highlight their stances on immigration and attract Latino voters (SFGate). Though many analysts say that the number one Latino issue is jobs and the economy (NYT), immigration is expected to resonate strongly with those voters as well.
Florida, a major swing state, could prove to be a testing ground for the GOP based on how well candidates perform with Latinos there. Florida has the third-largest number of eligible Latino voters in the country, with Democrats having a slight edge over Republicans (PDF) in Latino voter registrations, according to the Washington-based nonpartisan Pew Hispanic Center. Latinos are one of the fastest growing populations in the country and have been responsible for about half the country's population growth (FT) in the last decade. Some analysts suggest a major misstep on immigration in Florida could affect candidates' chances with Latinos elsewhere.
The immigration issue also holds significant stakes for the country as a whole. As a 2009 CFR Task Report notes, the lack of reform weakens the U.S. economy, jeopardizes diplomacy, and imperils national security. Congress and the Obama administration have made little progress on comprehensive reform, which would revise everything from worker-eligibility verification to improving the visa and guest-worker regimes to addressing the status of millions of undocumented people living in the United States. Since 2010, the debate over immigration has become increasingly contentious as a number of states, including South Carolina, Alabama, and Arizona, have attempted to implement laws designed at curbing undocumented residents, with most of those laws now under court challenge.
The Debate
The debate over immigration has largely been about where to focus efforts on reform. Some advocates focus largely on enforcement, arguing that illegal immigration is unfair to legal immigrants, harmful to U.S. workers, and dangerous to security. Others say the current situation damages the U.S. economy through a broken U.S. visa system and alienates millions of legal immigrants, many of whom have familial ties to undocumented residents. Those advocates focus on expanding access to H1B work visas and creating a path to citizenship for undocumented residents.
However, these arguments do not break down neatly along party lines; Republicans and President Obama embrace aspects of both sides. President Obama's 2012 State of the Union address highlighted his work to reduce illegal immigration, such as increasing deportations, and called for Congress to work on more comprehensive reform. GOP candidates have also have called for improving access to legal immigration while arguing for better border protections and worker verification rules. Still, analysts, including prominent Republicans, say GOP candidates must be careful (Salon) about how they juggle pleasing a base that has taken a hard line on reducing illegal immigration and avoiding alienating Latino voters and moderates.
Policy Options
MIT's John Tirman criticizes the tenor of the GOP candidates' discussions on immigration and also faults President Obama (HuffingtonPost) for not moving effectively on immigration reform.
Pushing through comprehensive reform, or even piecemeal bills, in an election year after so many years of failure is doubtful, and the focus of the debate is likely to remain on the legality and impact of state immigration policies, say some analysts. Abraham H. Foxman of the Anti-Defamation League says, "Whether America is successful in reforming [immigration] depends on the tone of the discussion in this country, guidance from the courts, and the prevailing political winds."

Featured Project – Custom Embroidered Shoes
This project is absolutely near and dear to my heart, because I have long been lamenting over not being able to embroider my own shoes. Well Marna Jean aka Wickedstepmother1969 has outdone me today, because she had the same thought, but instead of sitting here daydreaming, she went out and learned how to make her own shoes!
Yup, you read that right. Something most of us only picture being made by elves in the dead of night, she went out and learned how to do. Being able to make her own shoes also meant she could pre-embroider them, so she could add any stitched decoration she liked! Marna joins us today to share a very thorough walk-through on just how she made these shoes, and all the interesting challenges along the way.
Lets start with shoemaking… how did you get into this?
I have been a Victorian dressmaker for many years, and the one thing that always drove me NUTS was the fact I couldn't get good shoes to go with my creations. I have a friend Lisa Sorrell who is a bespoke bootmaker who makes the most AWESOME cowboy boots — the inlay is just incredible. Then her daughter Paige started making shoes. I kept drooling and longing, and started taking apart old shoes and haunting the Met Museum's website. My husband finally took pity on me and arranged for Paige to teach me a class on making simple flats when she was free on spring break. You can't believe how excited I was!
What was it like learning this technique?
I found that a lot of my sewing skills transferred over to shoemaking. I still am "skiving challenged"; skiving is the thinning of the leather with a special knife (you can actually do it with a sharp X-Acto) at joins and overlaps to reduce bulk. It takes a practiced hand, and it's something I am still working on.
Once Paige showed me the basics my mind kept jumping three steps ahead of where I should have been. Right now I just work in glued construction shoes- one day I hope to learn welted construction (sewn on soles) as well. I think the best description of learning would be "liberating" — my first pair of shoes I made I chose purple kid leather; if I had been just purchasing a pair I would probably have gone with something more basic black. Once you understand what parts go into the making of a shoe and why they are there, then the techniques become adaptable to your imagination.
Did you always have the idea of adding embroidery to your shoes? Or did this come later?
I think I always had it in mind I would embroider shoes. I've always loved embroidered shoes, but the challenge comes with working on an already constructed project, and some of the embroidered shoes available can be disappointing. I have a pair of cowboy boots with skulls embroidered on them, but when people comment how much they love my little owls on there … well, it makes you want to do it yourself. You would not believe the amazing things embroidered on Victorian era shoes. These shoes from the Met make my heart jump every time I look at them.
What I wasn't sure was whether I could embroider on leather, but I jumped on that one after I saw the leather embroidered bracelets on your site. So when I knew I could embroider them BEFORE they were shaped — well, I was pretty much set! I decided to use the light stitching Sweetness skull.
What were the kinds of considerations you made when choosing your design? Was it tricky embroidering on the material for the shoes?
I knew for a leather shoe I needed a lightweight pattern (fewer stitches) because too many would cause the leather to become weak from piercing. I also needed a design that would fit where I had in mind on the toe of the flat. Thanks to the magic of temporary fabric adhesive, hooping was not really a problem — I hooped the stabilizer and sprayed the back of the leather. The hardest part is placement and mirror image placement on the opposite shoe as I had used an asymmetrical placement. The best advice I can give is check and recheck placement before you start. Also, start with a full bobbin- once leather is pierced its best to not have to go back over it.
Talk about the awesome touch you added to the bottom of the shoe… how did you do that?
I got the idea after seeing this great pair of shoes that had been laser etched. Now since I don't have a laser lying around in my workshop, I decided I could get the same effect by using a wood burning tool. I dampened the leather down, used a ball stylus to trace over the pattern, and then wood burned the lines. To darken it up I rubbed some extra shoe polish down in the grooves. I started out trying to center the design, but decided to put it right at the arch or waist area of the shoe, kind of peaking around. I've been glad I did because after wearing the shoes the image has remained unworn.
So, is this the first pair of many shoes? Is this the start of a business? Or just a really awesome hobby? What are you going to tackle next?
This was my 4th set of shoes, and the second with an Urban Threads design on them. When I started, I never really intended for it to be the start of the business, but I could see it becoming one as I become more confident in my abilities. Right now I consider myself a very enthusiastic amateur.
My next pair is in progress as we speak — a pair of steampunk booties with the Urban Threads cogs designs on them. I also have a pair of cloth flats laid out with the "runs with scissors" design — I really think a seamstress needs a pair like that!
If you want even more depth on the whole process, you can see an even more detailed version of her process here, which pretty much amounts to a tutorial if you're feeling extra brave and have some shoe forms around. I have to say I am so blown away by this process, it's always such a treat to see someone take their love of embroidery and their mad skillz in other areas and combine them into one amazing process. If you decide to take these into the business world, I'm sure it won't be long before the orders fill up — after all, where else can you get shoes like these?
Thanks so much for sharing your shoes and your process with us Marna, you're an inspiration to the brave when it comes to diving headlong into a challenging process, and now you have some fantastic shoes to show for it. I can't wait to see the next creations you make.

By Chris Kieffer/NEMS Daily Journal
The State of Our Schools – This is the second monthly installment of an ongoing Daily Journal series about Mississippi's public schools, their performance and the factors that affect it, and the policy debate on how to improve the system. Today's stories examine education reform in Florida, which Mississippi political leaders are citing as a model for this state to emulate. Next month's installment will look at efforts to improve literacy in Mississippi.
For more, go to Chris's Blog, Education Matters
Jackson, meet Tallahassee. As a new legislative session heavily focused on education issues begins in Mississippi's capital, much of its inspiration will come from Florida.
In 1999, the Sunshine State began a series of school reforms under then-Gov. Jeb Bush. Supporters cite those actions as having a dramatic effect on improving the state's schools. Critics caution the picture is much more complex.
As their debate continues, Bush now heads a foundation that seeks to spread his ideas to other states, and Mississippi is among those browsing the menu.
He spoke to lawmakers in August, and his Foundation for Excellence in Education has made several trips to the state. It is providing input to a Department of Education committee tweaking the way Mississippi's schools are rated.
FEE National Director of Policy Mary Laura Bragg addressed House and Senate education committee members last month.
"One thing that is very clear and very definite is we cannot continue to do business the way we have been doing it the last few years," said Rep. John Moore, R-Brandon, chairman of the Mississippi House Education Committee. "We need to get outside the box and look at what other states are doing and jump on the train."
Florida is the origin of many of the reforms cited this year by Mississippi legislators – charter schools, scholarships to private schools, requiring third-graders to read at a certain level before they can advance and giving teachers performance bonuses.
In fact, Mississippi passed its first Jeb Bush reform last spring when it changed the state's school-ranking system from a seven-tiered model that labeled schools from "Star" to "Failing" to one that uses letter grades "A" through "F." The state is one of 27 with whom the FEE has worked since its 2008 inception.
"The 'A' through 'F' system is really what kicked this reform movement off in Florida," said the FEE's Bragg, a Mississippi native who worked on Bush's staff when he was governor. "When states talk about the Florida model, they have the advantage in being able to look at all of the reforms that led to student achievement.
"We did not roll out every one of the reforms in the governor's first year. Reform is never finished."
The so-called "Florida model" has five components: holding schools accountable for results, increasing standards for students, rewarding success, increasing school choice and making it easier for teachers to be certified.
Shortly after his 1998 gubernatorial election, Bush pledged education would be his top priority until "we can honestly say our system no longer leaves any child behind."
He quickly pushed for a series of reforms, many of which happened simultaneously. Among them:
• Giving cash rewards to schools that earned an "A" or improved their letter grade.
• Allowing children in fail-ing schools to transfer to better ones.
• Preventing third-grad-ers who failed the state reading test to advance to fourth grade and providing supports to help schools better teach literacy.
• Raising the standards of the high school graduation exam.
• Training teachers in C, D and F schools to teach more Advanced Placement courses.
• Allowing alternate routes to teacher certification
Since beginning those reforms, Florida has seen significant gains in academic achievement. Specifically, its fourth-grade reading scores have risen dramatically on a national standardized test often referred to as the "national report card."
In 1998, Florida's 207 average on that fourth-grade reading test, the National Assessment of Educational Progress, trailed the national average of 215. Only Louisiana and Hawaii scored significantly lower. In 2011, Florida's 225 average bests the nation's 220 mark. Only four other states scored significantly higher.
On another test, the 2011 Progress in International Reading Literacy Study, Florida's fourth-grade students scored as well as the highest-performing nations – Hong Kong, Finland, the Russian Federation and Singapore.
"If you look at the results, it is obvious Florida has had significant success with the reforms they've made in 1999 and since then," said Forest Thigpen, president of the conservative-leaning Mississippi Center for Public Policy.
Since 2003, Florida has made the largest gains on the NAEP for students with disabilities, the third-highest for low-income students and the fourth-highest for black students, according to FEE. The organization touts Florida's "education transformation" as "perhaps the greatest public policy success story of the past decade."
"When you start any reform with the belief all children can learn and you require schools reach the needs of all children, it is amazing what can happen," Bragg said. "There is enough research out there about the best way to teach kids how to read, and we rolled up our sleeves to make sure kids don't leave third grade destined to fail."
What the foundation does not tout, however, are other reforms that also occurred in Florida during the same period. In 2002, the state's voters passed a constitutional amendment that limits class size. The change was phased in. By the 2010-11 school year, the largest allowed class sizes are 18 students in pre-K through third grade, 22 in fourth grade through eighth-grade and 25 in high school.
The state also greatly expanded its pre-K programs with a 2005 state law that gave parents vouchers to use on child care facilities that agreed to follow certain state standards.
Finally, many of the state's gains came during a time when it was lush with property tax revenue, thanks to a boom in its housing market. In fact, Florida' fourth-grade reading NAEP score has remained flat since 2007 (students take the test every two years).
Florida has made gains on its overall graduation rate despite increasing its requirements, but the state's 71 percent rank in 2010-11 was better than only five states. It trailed Mississippi's 75 percent rate.
Many are also leery of FEE's funding sources, as the foundation works to transport the Florida model. They question whether the foundation is advocating for changes that will benefit its benefactors.
Patricia Levesque, CEO of the Foundation for Excellence in Education, said "90 percent of the foundation's budget comes from family foundations or philanthropic organizations dedicated to improving students' educational success.
"We advocate for policies that benefit students, not the interests of one particular non-profit or private entity," she said.
The foundation notes the 10 percent that comes from for-profits does not pay salaries but is used to put on the organization's national summit.
Nancy Loome, executive director of Mississippi's The Parents' Campaign, notes that many of the non-profits still have an agenda to push for privatization of schools and virtual charter schools. Funders include the Walton Foundation, Charter Schools USA, K12 and e2020, among others. K12 and e2020 are both connected to and profit from virtual charter schools, those that allow students to take many or all of their classes via the Internet.
In fact, the foundation's support of virtual schools has drawn criticism.
Sherman Dorn, University of South Florida professor of education, told Reuters news service that while some of Bush's initiatives made a real difference in the state, his advocacy for cyber schools was "throwing away whatever credibility he had coming out of Florida."
Bragg said FEE does have model bills states can use, but it does not lobby. Those bills are based on experiences both from Florida and from other states, she said.
When she spoke to Mississippi's legislative education committees in December, she was there to talk about Florida's experience, not to lobby, she said.
"I was only there to tell my experience about the program in Florida," she said. "We go at the request of the governor or Department of Education to share what we did in Florida."

Set in a lovely public garden shaded by pines and cypresses in the Katamon neighborhood of West Jerusalem, this monastery is built over the tomb of Simeon, the devout Jerusalemite who met Joseph and Mary in the Temple where they brought Jesus as an infant, and who took Jesus in his arms and prophesied salvation (Luke 2:25-32).
According to an inscription in Greek over the doorway, this two-story domed complex was built in 1859 and took more than 20 years to complete. Scholars say an inscription in a cave on the grounds indicates it was the tomb of Simeon's priestly forbears. The monastery gave its name to the neighborhood surrounding it – Katamon comes from the Greek meaning "near the monastery."A major battle took place around the monastery during Israel's 1948 War of Independence, commemorated by a monument in the park.

The KEE KEE is typical of young of the year birds . Sounds more like a whistle , but it has a tone all its own .
Yes you could set up in an area with good sign and cutt , purr , cluck ,yelp cackle , put on a fight with aggressive purrs and wing slapping and of course KEE KEE or KEE KEE RUN .
Gobbling ? Any turkey sound is capable of bringing in or at least getting a responce from another bird . I don't know your states laws or limits . A lot of fall hunters locate a flock , set up in the area of the scatter and call the birds back . This is the traditional method as I understand it . Of course if one can get close enough I suppose one could just shoot a bird instead of scattering .
Either way , the kee kee is a good fall call to get a young of the year bird to call back to you . One of the segregated groups is the older hens that for some reason do not have poults or young with them . These ol' girls will be in small flocks and seemingly are still grumpy from loosing their nest or clutch of eggs . They can be cranked up just like in the spring and things can get very loud and exciting as the vocal hen leads the rest of the girls to your set up .
Jakes ? Well if you don't know it already , jakes are liable to do anything . They are likely to respond in some fashion to about any turkey call . .
Gobblers are stuck up , arrogant and stubborn . sometimes alone , sometimes in gangs . They like to fight . And at times are very vocal with their coarse clucks , yelps and aggressive purring , and occasional gobbles . Being able to discern between an old hen yelping and a tom yelping will be extremely beneficial in the fall , and spring .

4th graders who flunk goal get faces scribbled on
DECLO, Idaho - Students who did not meet their reading goals in a fourth-grade Declo class had their faces written on in permanent marker by those who did, with the teacher's permission.
Some parents say the effect on their children was humiliating and that some of the children have learning problems.
District Superintendent Gaylen Smyer says students in the class read a set number of books over a certain period.
The Times-News reports the teacher allowed them to choose their own incentive to meet that goal. The students who fell short either would stay in at recess or have their faces written on.
Six students chose to have their faces marked on and three missed recess.
Parent Cindy Hurst says she's not after anyone's job but she wants positive changes made at the school

Top-ranked Eagles hang on to beat Sacramento State, 31-28
CHENEY, Wash. - The top-ranked Eagles had just enough answers.
Responding with touchdowns the first three times Sacramento State scored, the Eastern Washington University football team also used three Jimmy Pavel field goals to escape for a 31-28 victory Saturday (Oct. 20) in a Big Sky Conference game at Roos Field in Cheney, Wash.
The game ended with Sacramento State at the Eastern 45-yard line, but the Eagles did enough up to that point to pull out a win in EWU's 86th Annual Homecoming Game, with EWU now owning a 51-32-3 record in those contests.
"Our guys do such a good job of responding," said Eastern head coach Beau Baldwin, whose team had a 454-288 advantage in total offense. "Things are not always going to be perfect, but we are always finding ways to respond. I can't think of one moment right now in this one (when the tide turned). We thankfully made enough plays to win."
The victory improved on Eastern's best-ever Big Sky start as the Eagles are now 5-0 in the league and 6-1 overall. Eastern survived in its first outing since reaching the top spot in the Sports Network NCAA Football Championship Subdivision Top 25 poll.
Pavel made field goals of 24, 40 and 47 yards for the Eagles, as he remained perfect for the season (11-of-11). Quarterbacks Vernon Adams and Kyle Padron combined to complete 26-of-37 passes for 342 yards and three touchdowns. They also combined to rush for 62 yards.
Senior Greg Herd caught nine passes for 109 yards and a pair of scores, and junior Brandon Kaufman added six grabs for 102 yards and a TD.
Linebacker Grant Williams, filling in for the fourth-straight game for the injured Zach Johnson (hamstring), had a team-leading 12 tackles. Defensive end Jerry Ceja had a sack for the Eagles as he increased his season total to eight. He entered the game ranked fourth in FCS and second in the league with an average of 1.17 sacks per game. Ronnie Hamlin, who entered the game with a team-leading 61 tackles, chipped in eight stops.
"We've played a lot of games like that," said Baldwin, whose team has won its last two Big Sky games by three points, and two other league outings by six. "You have to credit Sac State. They are a team that came in here 5-2 and had beaten Colorado. They were 3-1 in the conference, so we knew it would be a battle.
"We still have to go back and look at some things we can do to try to put ourselves in a better spot, but any time you have games like that against a great opponent, it is going to come down to the wire," he added.
Adams started the game, and finished 17-of-21 for 169 yards, two touchdowns and an interception, and also rushed for a team-leading 38 yards. Padron played some in the first half and most of the second half, and completed 9-of-16 for 173 yards and a score, and added 24 yards on the ground. Adams is a redshirt freshman, and Padron is a junior after transferring from SMU.
"I went into the game (wanting to play both quarterbacks)," explained Baldwin. "Padron has been making incredible strides in practice and has been doing some of the things that I didn't think he did quite as well in the beginning of the season. He has been doing incredibly well behind the scenes but no one else sees it. I went into the game knowing that. Those two young men are there for each other, and I said we are going to find a way to go win and both of you guys are going to be a part of it. We're going to be that much better for it."
Eastern has now won its last five games, with the lone loss for the Eagles this season coming in a narrow 24-20 setback at Washington State on Sept. 8.
The Hornets, who earlier this season knocked off a Pac-12 Conference foe for the second-straight year with a 30-28 victory at Colorado, entered the game with its best start in two decades, matching the 5-2 start of the 1992 squad.
Pavel made a field goal on EWU's first possession of the game, but Sac State followed with a touchdown drive. Responding for the first of three times, Eastern took a 10-7 lead on a 10-yard TD pass from Adams to Herd. Eastern took a 13-7 lead at halftime with Pavel's 40-yarder with 15 seconds left in the second quarter.
The Hornets regained a 14-13 lead early in the third quarter, but Eastern responded once again. After a 30-yard kickoff return by Shaquille Hill, Eastern drove 52 yards on four plays to take the lead for good. Eastern scored on a 26-yard pass from Adams to Herd.
Pavel's 47-yard field goal gave EWU a 10-point cushion, but Sac State scored to cut the lead to 24-21. But Padron then led the Eagles on a five-play, 84-yard drive, completing a 52-yard TD pass to Brandon Kaufman to put the Eagles ahead 31-21 with 11:22 to play.
Sac State scored to cut the lead to three with 3:05 left, and although the Eagles didn't respond with a touchdown, they did pick up a key third down conversion on the ensuing possession. On a third-and-five from their own 24, Herd had a 26-yard catch-and-run for a first down that ate up the more time and forced Sac State to use its final two timeouts.
The Hornets got the ball back with 21 seconds to play and used a 15-yard penalty and a 30-yard pass play to get into Eastern territory, but EWU's Allen Brown batted down Sac State's Hail-Mary pass on the game's final play.
"They are a team that gets in your face and they hit you," added Baldwin. "They are a physical outfit and they are coached really well. We always have battles with them. Almost every year we have to battle with them so it didn't surprise me at all."
Eastern next plays at Southern Utah (Oct. 27), before returning home for games versus Cal Poly (Nov. 3) and UC Davis (Nov. 10). Eastern closes the regular season at Portland State (Nov. 17).

By Teresa Rivas
SunTrust Robinson Humphrey analyst Robert Peck has an update out about eBay (EBAY), in regard to Carl Icahn's ongoing push to spin off PayPal.
Peck writes that he expects investors will get more detailed information beginning next week, given Icahn's warning that "there is more to come" in his SEC filing, and eBay's inevitable response to Icahn's documents.
Peck says there are pros and cons to both scenarios. Those wanting to maintain the status quo can highlight "better data sharing; revenue and balance sheet synergies; and removal of management distraction." Those in Icahn's camp will likely point to "better asset value highlighting; capturing current "revenue opportunity costs"; continued data sharing; and a currency to attract top talent and make acquisitions."
Peck concludes: "We are unsure which side will prevail and we will leave it up to investors to ultimately decide, as they vote. However, we think the discussion as a whole is good for the stock no matter who wins, as investors have dug deeper on the various asset valuations. We maintain our Buy and $65 2014 target."
Shares of eBay ended down 0.4% on Friday.

NUTRITION We all want to include our dogs in our holiday celebrations, but hopefully, you're aware that sharing table scraps with your dog isn't always the best idea.
HEALTH Summer is coming on fast, so it's time to plan how you will keep your dog safe and healthy through the lazy, carefree, warm days.
NUTRITION With the wide variety of food at Thanksgiving dinner, chances are you'll want to give your dog something special, too. If you're contemplating what to feed your dog for the holiday, here is a guide to a great Canine Thanksgiving Feast.
DOG HEALTH So you have your new puppy picked out. There are quite a few shots, treatments and examinations that will keep the newest member of your family healthy.
DOG FUN Walking your dog is not only crucial to keeping him healthy and happy, it strengthens the bond between your canine friend and his caregiver. There are a lot of obstacles out there. Don't forget these simple tips to keep your walk fun and safe in the outside world.
HEALTH The same techniques that physiotherapists use to treat a variety of injuries and conditions in humans have been adapted to suit animals with great success. Family pets, show dogs, and working dogs can all benefit greatly from physiotherapy. Dogs whose activities involve a lot of agility are especially susceptible to the types of problems that physiotherapy can address.
FIRST TIME OWNERSBringing a dog into your family is a decision where many people don't realize it's magnitude until after they have the dog. There are a number of things that you need to research before you decide to purchase a dog, and it starts right in your own home.
HEALTH Many believe that a dog and a new baby cannot happily coexist, so therefore the dog has to go. This is not necessarily the case. A new baby does not mean you have to abandon your dog.

Storm Ready
Every year, around 500 Americans lose their lives to severe weather and floods. More than 10,000 severe thunderstorms, 2,500 floods and 1,000 tornadoes impact the United States annually, and hurricanes are a threat to the Gulf and East Coasts. Potentially deadly weather can affect every person in the country. That's why NOAA's National Weather Service developed the StormReady program.
