Front Parlor Paper
After a whole lot of angst which culminated in my taping wallpaper up with Scotch tape, I decided that all of the alcove, baseboard to ceiling, should be papered in the floral paper. There's no picture rail in the alcove (where the stained glass windows are that "bump out" on the front of my house in the profile picture) because it's pretty much all windows.
I can tell from the ghost marks of the picture rail that it wrapped around the corners of the alcove and stopped at the window trim. What I can't tell is if the alcove was originally papered with two wallpapers, or just one. So I agonized. What did Mrs. Kelly do? What would she want me to do now?
The ceiling in the alcove is a few inches lower than the rest of the ceiling in the front parlor and the windows are also lower than the other window in the room. The space between the top of the window trim there and the ceiling, though, is only 3 inches shorter. I couldn't decide what to do. So I taped up wallpapers in the alcove to see what it looked like with one and then with two. One wallpaper, top to bottom, won out. For now. Unless I decide, once I get past that point, that it looks dumb.
But all those windows and fancy trim and windowsills wider than the trim and fluted trim under the windows mean that I have to measure and cut the paper verrrry carefully. What's in this photo took me over an hour to do. That's one strip of paper. So much light comes in those windows that I'd better be extra-careful with the pattern here because any mistake will be really noticeable. And that one strip of paper is crooked, I noticed this afternoon, so it will have to come down. Really crooked, not just a little crooked so that I can fudge it.
I'm at work until Saturday morning, so I have plenty of time to worry over that crooked piece of paper while not having time to actually correct it. Sigh...

Once you finish this, though, you'll be able to wallpaper anything :-)ReplyDelete
The new picture rail will also extend into the alcove like the old did?
The wallpaper is perfect! Gorgeous!ReplyDelete
I didn't notice it was crooked until you said something! LOLReplyDelete
The wallpaper is very pretty!
I'm gonna love that alcove!!ReplyDelete

To celebrate going to rehab, Lindsay Lohan went out.
Alcohol was involved and so was Miley Cyrus!
Can you just imagine what a night out with Lindsay Lohan and Miley Cyrus???
Probably involves lots of wrecking ball licking and a Dina Lohan cameo, although we can't really picture LiLo twerking.
Why did Lindsay even go to rehab? What a waste.
Perez also talked to Carson about Chris Brown entering rehab, Kerry Washington pregnant, Kristen Cavallari expecting her second child, Will and Jada Smith possibly separated and Tori Spelling's sex tape.

I have searched for a way to make two columns or otherwise accomplish this feat. Saw an answer from 5 months ago, but my question is can it still be done after the photo has been placed in-line. I do not see the arrows or options mentioned in the previous answer. Thanks.
sort by best latest
Emanate--I'm new myself but I will attempt to explain. I believe you have to make the photo half or quarter size in edit mode. Then click the up arrow. It should go to the right side of the text. I don't think you can position it on the left. Hope this is clear enough. If not maybe someone else can help.
You can help the HubPages community highlight top quality content by ranking this answer up or down.
That is so helpful. The trick was to make the photo half width, and then like you said the arrows appear on the capsule.
That's really simple to do. At the top of every photo capsule you'll see arrows in boxes. There is an arrow pointing "UP", which moves your photo capsule up one position above the next capsule, what ever that capsule may be. There is an arrow pointing "DOWN" which moves your photo capsule down one position. Then there's an arrow which is pointing "SIDEWAYS", and this is the one you want to click on. This arrow will position your photo next to your text, which is what you are after. Experiment with this some, and I hope I was able to help you out here.
You can help the HubPages community highlight top quality content by ranking this answer up or down.
Yes, it helped. I was so focused on finding an option for columns, it never occurred that I had to change the width of the photo first. Thanks.
I'm glad I was some help to you here. It also took me a long time to figure this all out as well. One other trick to doing this is not having large gaps between the text, and you'll just have to experiment if this happens to get it like you want.
Your welcome Emanate---I'm still learning it all--dizzying...good luck with it all!

PROMINENT US mediator David Shapiro has moved to the UK to lead a new European mediation and dispute resolution practice based in London.
The European office of US-based JAMS/Endispute, JAMS Endispute Europe, opened last week in the offices of City firm SJ Berwin & Co.
JAMS stands for the Judicial Arbitration & Mediation Services, which merged with Endispute in 1994.
JAMS/Endispute is the largest provider of mediation and alternative dispute resolution in the US. The organisation has offices in more than 30 US cities and handled over 17,000 actions last year.
In the past decade Shapiro has achieved national status in the US as a specialist in the resolution of complex, multi-billion dollar litigation.
Shapiro said JAMS Endispute Europe would specialise in multi-party-complex cases, such as product liability cases.
"We're talking about cases that involve hundreds of parties, perhaps more," he said.
"We will also specialise in cases involving disputes between companies in different countries."
Shapiro said he hoped to "introduce a new, dynamic approach to dispute resolution in the UK and continental Europe".
"In the US mediators take a pro-active role in helping parties resolve their differences," he said.
"Mediators in the US are not merely facilitators, but deal makers, whereas in the UK the experience has been primarily as facilitators. It's a difference mainly in style."
Shapiro is aiming to develop a panel of "super mediators" from around the world to work with JAMS Endispute Europe on complex cases. He said the organisation was already working with a UK lawyer accredited by the Centre for Dispute Resolution and was planning to extend the involvement of local lawyers.

Ethics in Architecture: Chapter one
Until the end of this year, I will focus on ethics in architecture. Built environment designers are principally bound by their education and legally required by professional bodies to act ethically. The term ethics is derived from the Greek word ethos meaning the way that society manifests its attitudes and aspirations.
The responsibility of the built environment designer
Built environment designers should act ethically in a number of ways. As members of professional bodies they should act according to the prescribed rules and regulations. They should also act ethically in their relationships with clients, other built environment specialists, contractors and government bodies. But there are also other less legalistic concerns. In the age of dwindling resources the effects of building on the environment have become all consuming while the economic downturn has perhaps, fortunately, forced us to think more deeply about less expensive solutions. Most importantly, built environment designers should be concerned with how space and place is designed to ensure the well-being, and improvement of the lives, of the general public.
The Institutes of Architecture
The registration of architects is controlled by the South African Council for the Architectural Profession (SACAP). Architects can also be voluntary members of their local and national institute. Both institutes hold bi annual awards functions where work produced by their members is lauded. These works can be said to uphold the ethical principles outlined by the voluntary bodies. I was fortunate enough to have been part of the Pretoria Institute of Architects' awards panel in July this year. I will focus on some of the works of the award winners in later chapters but I would like to concentrate on a highly awarded Cape Town architect who won his first Institute award in 1967.
The exhibition invitations (http://www.theheritageportal.co.za/notice/retrospective-exhibition-work-gawie-fagan)
On the 4th of November I opened Gawie Fagan's 90th birthday exhibition. Gawie has certainly acted ethically during his 60 year career. His involvement in the conservation of our built environment, his way of making history contemporary and the sensitive making of place has set him apart from his peers and have resulted in him, according to my estimations, becoming the most awarded architect in South Africa. The opening speech below describes, amoungst other attributes, his ethical contribution to architecture.

Good evening everyone. Welcome to you all on this opening night of Gawie Fagan's exhibition.
I am very honoured to have been asked by the Fagans to open this long-awaited and, I think, very necessary exhibition of Gawie Fagan's architectural production that span almost 60 years, a range of building typologies, contexts and scales.
What we are doing today is celebrating, not only, over 50 years of architectural production but also nearly 90 years of life of a seminal South African architect. He is, according to my calculations, the most awarded South African architect with, not only, a Gold medal from the South African Institute of Architects but also 16 Institute of Architects awards and an honorary membership of the American Institute of Architects. Added to these accolades he has also received two honorary doctorates while his conservation work has been equally lauded through Gold medals from the National Monuments Council and the South African Academy of Literature and Science.

But these awards extend beyond architecture and demonstrate the attributes of the polymath that Gawie is. In 1982, he was the winner of the Cape to Rio yacht race receiving a President's Award for this same achievement. It is this innate ability to understand context, in all its forms, that has its roots in Fagan's birthplace in Newlands, Cape Town in 1925. Here his contextual appreciations were initiated through sailing. A four year stint at the University of Cape Town studying engineering honed these skills, assisted by part-time pursuits such as the rebuilding of motorcycles (and selling them on to eventually buy his Adler motor car), maidens (here he met Gwen), music and flying. In 1946, he started his architectural education at the university of Pretoria where hobbies made way for a more serious pursuit - the study of architecture.

Fagan was educated at an important juncture in South Africa's architectural history. The Martienssen Modern Movement influence of the Witwatersrand School of Architecture was waning after the architectural fraternity realized that aspects of the orthodox Modern Movement were not appropriate for the South African climate. Gawie followed a "regional-modern" architectural education and through the influences of part and full-time lecturers, such as Helmut Stauch, Norman Eaton and Basil South at the University of Pretoria, an appreciation of place and a search for an South African architecture was initiated.

This exhibition, and the larger body of built work, represent a number of important aspects in Fagan's search for architecture of place, where, I believe, history is made contemporary.
This has happened on a scale of architectural approaches that range from conservative ideas of preservation to more radical ideas in the guise of conservation. Gawie has made enormous contributions at an urban scale such as the preservation of towns like Tulbagh and the development of the Cape Town waterfront precinct in the late 1970s together with Dave Jack and others.
Gawie's appreciates the traditive nature of architecture by understanding historical legacy, reinterpreting it and then synthesising it with modern ways of living. His domestic architecture is a unique synthesis of the principles of Cape vernacular architecture and Modern Movement attitudes to function and space making which, in their new form, create a unique architectural language. The result of this I call a relationship between Familiarity and Strangeness which is exhibited, in his houses, through architectural elements such as chimneys, walls and roofs.

But there is a fine balance between approaches of the cerebral and the physical. Gawie remarked in 1982 that "a child can only fully develop if hand and mind are taught to work in synergy". Die Es was entirely constructed by the Fagan family with Gawie having learnt much from the construction of Cape vernacular buildings but the foundations for a hands-on approach were established in childhood and at university.
These practical approaches are finely balanced with the haptic aspects of design that allow the visitor or inhabitant to experience space with all of their senses. Through aural, visual tactile and physical means the architect imbues each space with a different quality and forces the inhabitant to make a decision about further movement.
The most developed of these can be found in Die Es which, Peter Buchanan, a previous editor of the Architectural Review and one-time employee of Gawie, remarked as "being one of the best buildings of the 20th century". It certainly exemplifies all of the ideas that I have alluded to, none of which, unfortunately, come close to explaining that which should be at the core of our business, namely the experience of space and place!

My understanding of Gawie's ouevre is, of course, contestable and, unfortunately for me, reinforced by his responses to my many questions over the years "ja , maar Arthur, ek het nie noodwendig so daaraan gedink nie". More importantly, is what the man himself said, in 1983, at a Cape Town conference on Regionalism - "architects should be striving for an architectural language that 'belongs and is appropriate to the Cape". This lesson and other wonderful poetic, theoretical and pragmatic lessons he has given us we should all take to heart.
But, enough from me. We are here to celebrate the man and his architecture. Thank you to all who made this event possible namely the Fagan office, CifA for hosting the event, Andre Vorster from the Pop-Up gallery and to all of you for joining us in celebrating Gawie's work. Thanks too to Gwen, for whom without, I am sure, Gawie's oeuvre would not be what it is. And last, but not least, thank you, Gawie, for producing an architectural oeuvre that has internationally and locally lauded, that is architecturally unique and, at the same time, locally most appropriate. Thank you for inspiring me and, I am sure, many others to be better, and more, critical architects.
So, with that, I have great pleasure in declaring this, what I hope will not be the last, Gawie Fagan exhibition officially open!

End of Illusions
Grand Jury Decisions in Deaths of Mike Brown, Eric Garner Expose Reality of Capitalism
BY MARTIN SAYLES and ROBIN WAKIPAJAN | DECEMBER 8, 2014
NEW YORK, N.Y., December 7 — As we go to press, mass protests continue across the country in response to grand jury decisions that have cleared the police officers responsible for the deaths of Michael Brown in Ferguson, Missouri, and Eric Garner in New York City.
On Nov. 24, a St. Louis County grand jury returned a "no true bill" (a legal term for no charges) against Darren Wilson, the Ferguson cop who shot and killed Brown while he stood with his hands in the air. Nine days later, on Dec. 3, a Staten Island grand jury handed down its own "no true bill" in the case of NYPD officer Daniel Pantaleo, who applied a chokehold on Garner, provoking a heart attack.
The System Worked
"A System Cannot Fail Those Who It Was Never Designed to Protect." — W.E.B. Dubois
The outcome of the so-called grand jury in the case of Ferguson Police Officer Darren Wilson, the killer of 18-year-old Mike Brown, should not have come as a surprise to anyone. It certainly wasn't a surprise to those living in Ferguson, who already knew that the fix was in.
From the beginning, it was clear that none of the local or state officials, from Governor Jay Nixon to County Prosecutor Robert McCulloch to Mayor James Knowles and Chief Thomas Jackson, wanted to see Wilson face a trial in the August 9 shooting. They would have preferred to see those residents who were angry over Brown's death quietly and forcefully swept off the streets. Indeed, that was the original plan — to drive the African American community off the streets and back into their homes through the use of their armed enforcers of "law and order."
Obama's Legacy
Washington Launches New Air War in Iraq, Syria Under Pretext of 'War on Terrorism'
WASHINGTON, D.C., Sept. 24 — The launching of U.S. air strikes inside Syria for the first time has marked the end of two weeks since President Barack Obama cemented his lasting legacy as the continuator of George W. Bush's military adventure in the region.
Using the military successes of Da'esh (known in English as ISIS/ISIL/the Islamic State) as a pretext and the tired arguments of the so-called "war on terrorism" as justification, Obama announced the launching of a concentrated bombing campaign in Iraq and the deployment of nearly 500 U.S. "advisors" to aid the Baghdad regime.

Where can you see senators dodging tacklers in football, staring down the pitcher in a baseball game, practicing karate moves and tying a string around a frog in an attempt to get it to jump? On the Capitol's third floor, where a collection of legendary Senate photographer Arthur E. Scott's pictures hang.
Outside the realm of sports — but firmly within the realm of the unusual — is a 1965 photograph of Sens. George Murphy (R-Calif.) and Thruston Morton (R-Ky.) tying a string around a frog on the Capitol steps in an attempted reenactment of the Mark Twain short story "The Celebrated Jumping Frog of Calaveras County."
Heather Moore, the Senate's photo historian, contrasted these photographs with the multitude of paintings and sculptures that adorn most the of the Capitol's walls.
"The art in the Capitol is, of course, beautiful and moving, but there's something about a photograph that captures a moment and captures an image," she said. "Except for the busts of the more recent vice presidents, the art is from 200 years ago. Because [this exhibit is] more recent, people can look at it and go, 'I remember Dirksen,' or, 'I remember that.' "
The exhibit has been on display for approximately 15 years on the walls of the Senate side of the third-floor hallway that runs the length of the Capitol.
When Scott died in 1976, his family donated 30,000 of his negatives and prints to the Senate Historical Office, where they became part of the permanent collection.
"The former photo historian realized that the Scott collection had some great images and thought we ought to display them," said Scott Strong, an administrator for the Office of the Senate Curator.
When the exhibition first went on display, visitors would often be lined up along the hallway, waiting to get into the Senate gallery.
"I think the idea was to give them something to look at," Moore said.
After the terrorist attacks of Sept. 11, 2001, occasioned tighter security, visitors no longer line up in the hallway, but still pass through it on their way to the gallery.
When asked if visitors pay attention to the photographs while walking past, Gwen Privott, a security aide stationed by the exhibit, replied, "Oh, yes.
"The one they like is the football one, especially," said Privott, referring to the photo of Percy and his staff.
While many of the images, like that of the football game, are light and fun, some are more serious.
"Some of the images that stand out are the more profound images, like the one of JFK walking through the rotunda on his way to the inauguration and another one of his casket in the same rotunda," Moore said. Those two photographs hang side by side.
Moore and her team are able to keep the photographs looking fresh because they are not the original prints, which means they can be replaced with another set of prints from the original negatives when need be. The team put up new prints a few years ago when the old ones started turning a faint orange.
Scott himself went to work in the field of preserving and using photos as a historical resource when the Senate appointed him as its first photo historian in 1975. However, Scott was unable to serve in the post for long; he died in 1976. After his death, senators took to the floor to commemorate him because, as Moore put it, "He was part of the Senate, as well as the members."

ORIGIN is over and now it is left to Australian coach Tim Sheens to repair a team shattered into a thousand pieces.
Sheens has the large job of repairing the damage between NSW and Queensland players in time for November's World Cup. He is going to need every available day.
Rivals New Zealand and England benefit greatly after the damage this Origin series has caused.
The irony is that the great lesson of Origin- from the bonding nights in early camp to the victory lap after the bell - is that the closer the team the better they expect to perform.
Good luck with that in the green and gold.
NSW and Queensland have been going at each other for more than 30 years now.
It was ugliest in 1985 when NSW and Australian coach Terry Fearnley sacked several Queenslanders and replaced them with NSW players, leading to fractures within the team and new rules stopping one man from coaching both state and country.
This year's series is as ugly as that ever was.
Paul Gallen thumped Nate Myles in Game I and Trent Merrin cold-cocked Brent Tate in Game II, and players came like Indians over the hill to join the fun both times. Feelings between teams, already simmering by then, raised a level.
Queensland and Australian captain Cam Smith went to pains to deny it before this year's Anzac Test, and might well believe it, but Smith is seeing it through Queensland eyes.
The NSW players certainly don't feel they are treated as equals in the Australian camp.
The Blues still remember the Queenslanders in the Australian team starting up the Queensland team song after last year's Test win over New Zealand.
They usually sit at separate tables in camp, which a testy Smith denied before this year's Anzac Test but which the Blues certainly dispute.
Gorden Tallis, on Triple M's Saturday NRL coverage a week ago, asked the most pertinent question this whole series when Greg Bird was interviewed over the phone.
"This hatred?" Tallis asked. "Does this carry on into the Australian camp as well? Is it true hatred between the states?"
"Mate, I don't know whether the hatred carries into the Australian camp," Bird said, before relaxing into the question.
"There's definitely an elephant in the room when the sides are eating and, I guess, socialising in the camp.
"I don't know if anyone else has said it but it's definitely there. I'm not going to comment too much on the details.
"I wouldn't call it a hatred in camp but it's definitely a hatred going on now."
In football speak, that's as big an admission as you get.
During this year's series a NSW player was in a private conversation, telling how he didn't care if he ever played for Australia again.
It sounded absurd. why would anyone knock back that chance?
But his reason was simple: he didn't want to play with the Queenslanders.
"Isn't that just Origin talk?" he was asked.
"No way," he said. "I hate them. They're so f ... ing arrogant."
That was realised in Game II, when Merrin hit Tate. It was the culmination of many things.
Merrin was motivated to hit Tate not only because he just saw him shove Gallen, but because by then the Queenslanders, well in front, had begun taunting the NSW players. Laughing at them, sledging them.
Merrin is close to the last player in the Blues camp most expected to start a blue. Yet he felt the respect evaporating and decided to take some back. Rightly or wrongly, depending on where you're from.
Gallen's motivation in Game I was a belief that Myles continually fouled the NSW players with his formidable forehead. And for more than just this year's series.
Again, the punch was a decision made on more than the spur of the moment.
Part of NSW's frustration is the Maroons have completed one of the great cons on the sporting public.
As someone who has a special appreciation for a well-worked rort, it's hard not to admire the Maroons' skill at changing public perception.
It makes sense that after eight years in a row the Maroons are clearly the better team, and are supremely confident, and yet their public reputation remains that they are still the underdogs, and humbly so.
The convincer is their continual spruiking of those most admirable of values, such as togetherness, and pride and hard work.
The Blues see the reality as far different, and the ugliness now lands in Sheens' lap.
Burgers are better in rugby
NOW that the tears have dried up following Benji Marshall's announcement of his impending departure, we're starting to see a little more clearly.
And not all of it makes sense.
The most extraordinary aspect is that Marshall has walked away from a reported $800,000 a year to put himself on the market in a game he hasn't played since he was a teenager, and in which teams' interest has hardly been intense.
Incoming Wallabies coach Ewen McKenzie has questioned whether Marshall will even make it.
The plausible explanation is that alongside his fallout with Tigers coach Mick Potter for having the audacity to discipline him (for drinking while he was part of the rehabilitation group) and Tigers management (for failing to honour a $1 million-a-season upgrade agreed to under previous administrators), Marshall realises he's just not the player he once was in the NRL.
A move to the less intense rugby fields will solve that problem. Marshall is competitive and proud, and earlier this year hit back at questions over his form, vowing to bounce back better than ever.
And while he has certainly tried harder, his reputation that he is either "rocks or diamonds" was only underlined, and there seem to be a lot more rocks in the quarry these days than there used to be.
Though many believe in the bid to bulk up to avoid the injuries that hampered his early career, Marshall is now carrying too much weight to be the elusive will o' the wisp that lit up a thousand backyard footy games.
I don't have a problem with Marshall realising this and so heading to rugby, but the early spin put on his decision to suggest it was the failure of the NRL or the Tigers for him leaving was irresponsible and grubby.
To his credit, Marshall has since begun correcting this.
The good news is that once he's in the rugby fold, with their less intense defensive structures, Marshall's weight won't be a problem, leaving him free to eat as much Hungry Jack's as he wants.
NOBODY wants to mention the word "revival" yet, but the early signs in the second Test after the performance at Trent Bridge suggest a new era in Aussie cricket. Contrary to belief, Mickey Arthur's revelation of the bitterness between skipper Michael Clarke and vice Shane Watson was a good thing, giving new coach Darren Lehmann a clear point to start rebuilding team culture.
NOBODY will do it rougher this week than Mitch Pearce, whose criticisms are wildly out of proportion to his performance. Pearce didn't drop the ball with the line open, get held up, or miss the tackles that led to Queensland tries. What has been overlooked is that Pearce is the best NSW halfback in the NRL, a claim that includes Adam Reynolds right now. And nobody tries harder.
AS last year's British Open showed us, it ain't over til the leader drops four shots in the final four holes. The good news is it gives every Aussie still in the field a chance.
THE Red Devils, Manchester United, take on the A-League All Stars at ANZ Stadium 7.30pm Saturday night, underlining just how well the A-League is travelling. So right on cue six owners have banded together to make cash demands on the prospering competition. Take heart, David Gallop - when self-interest and greed kick in you
know you're starting to make it.
Brett Emerton, A-League All Stars captain
PK: Not a lot of people know you were part of the Socceroos team that officially opened ANZ Stadium
BE: It was a very long time ago, now. We played an all-stars team a bit like tonight, and won 3-1 and I got on the scoresheet, so hopefully I can do that again.
PK: The big moment, though, was 2005 when Aloisi sent Australia to the World Cup, do you still think about that when you go back to play there?
BE: All the time. It's probably the greatest memory in my footballing history. Everyone remembers that night like it was yesterday. It really was a special occasion and one which is going to be hard to match ever again.
PK: It's been voted the second biggest moment at the stadium after Cathy Freeman.
BE: It's definitely something to be proud of. It's an achievement for us as players but when you talk to football fans around the country and even people who don't normally support our game, everyone remembers that one night.
PK: You're coming up against an old team-mate tonight, Robin van Persie.
BE: I caught up with him Thursday. It was good to catch up and see what the other has been up to. He was a young kid with exceptional ability. He always had the talent to go all the way and, luckily enough, he's backed that talent up with hard work and a desire to be the best and now he is one of the best strikers in the world.

Thread: Fired for eating soup at desk.
14th May 2017, 17:48:PM #1
Fired for eating soup at desk.
Hi. I'm ill. Digestive problems make it difficult to eat and swallow without gagging and vomiting. I'm on prescription drugs to deal with it, but still choke quite a bit (Particularly in the morning and lunch time. I have had this issue for over two years, but the Docs only diagnosed it and put me on meds maybe six months ago.
Work has a "no eating at desk policy" (Which everybody ignores.) I am being disciplined for eating at my desk (Locked room, etc.) despite them knowing my medical situation. I am facing being fired, or at the very least, have had my salary cut by £2600.
This is not the first time I've had issues with my employer. I have been bullied at work previously, including a physical assault (March 2016) and verbal abuse. It was, obviously, whitewashed, but it is on record.
Any ideas on how to fight this?

YG States Big Bang′s Full-length Album Will Be Delayed for Members to Recharge
Big Bang, who has been running nonstop the last four months releasing albums as part of the ′MADE SERIES,′ has decided to postpone the release of its full-length album, originally scheduled for release on September 1, in order to recharge.
YG Entertainment stated on August 18, "We decided that Big Bang, who has been running nonstop the last four months, needs time to recharge, and as it′s a full-length album, the members expressed that they wanted to add a new song for a more high-quality album. The members have decided to use the three weeks in September we freed up for Big Bang′s domestic activities to recharge and work on the new song." YG also asked for fans′ understanding regarding the full-length album′s postponement. In addition to releasing new songs every month, Big Bang has been meeting with more than 1.4 million global audience members on its world tour, selling out tickets within minutes everywhere it goes. Big Bang has ranked number one on the iTunes Chart in 16 countries with its new songs and held onto the number one spot on Korea′s major monthly music charts for three consecutive months.
August release Let′s Not Fall in Love has held onto the number one spot on Korea′s major weekly music charts for two consecutive weeks, and many are interested to see if Big Bang will be able to hold onto the top spot on the monthly charts for a fourth month.

Low fares airlines and SESAR team up
Following an open call for tenders, the SESAR Joint Undertaking today signed a framework contract with the European Low Fares Airlines Association (ELFAA) to include its expertise in the execution of the SESAR work programme.
For this contract, the association has secured the confirmed participation of three ELFAA airline members: Ryanair, Jet 2.com and Flybe. This marks the latest addition of external partners to SESAR, the European ATM modernisation programme.
"Having ELFAA on board SESAR is essential. We need the involvement of all air transport actors to ensure applicability and acceptance of the SESAR technologies and procedures. The diversity of our members and partners is the key to success of our programme and ELFAA helps us to close one more gap", said Patrick Ky, Executive Director of the SESAR Joint Undertaking.
ELFAA members currently account for 35% of intra-European air traffic. Under the present contract, the associations and its selected partners will contribute to the execution of the SESAR work programme by providing technical expertise and by preparing, performing and analysing live or simulated flight trials.
The mission of the SESAR Programme is to enhance the capacity, safety and efficiency of the European ATM network while reducing the environmental impact per flight by 10%. To do so, the SESAR Joint Undertaking built an effective partnership between airlines, airports, manufacturing industry and Air Navigation Service Providers.

text: 5k Twitter Followers Celebration & Feltman Brothers $60 Gift Card Giveaway Theresa April 28, 2017 Giveaways, Kid's Style 4 Comments Today, Theresa's Reviews reached 5k Twitter followersr! To celebrate, I'm sharing my thoughts about growing a Twitter account, while at the same time featuring my favorite 2017 spring children's dress from Feltman Brothers. If you have an important event you want to commemorate, this children's dress will make the occasion special. Whether you are taking photographs for Mother's Day or your weekend beach getaway, this wholesome, classic dress will bring out your child's natural beauty. How To Get To 5k Twitter Followers Getting to 5k Twitter followers is simple. First, you might be wondering does Twitter matter anymore, and why? Twitter has a lot of value if you are trying to build a brand or website to its full potential. Whether you are a blogger, influencer, or entrepreneur, having a Twitter account helps show that you are a real entity. Major brands are on Twitter, and they like to see that you can interact there. Also, Twitter is useful for live tweeting from events. If you go on a press trip or travel somewhere new, you can immediately tell your followers about it. Since the tweets don't last long in your followers' feed, you don't have to worry about having a perfectly edited picture (as you would on Instagram). It also takes less effort than going live on Facebook. Some bloggers say that Twitter doesn't do much as far as getting people to visit your website. Now that I have put some work into my Twitter account, I have seen how powerful being retweeted by the right account is. You can also add a comment to your retweet of someone else's post to start a discussion. Putting in a little work to build my account helped increase referrals to my website, even though that wasn't my primary goal. To celebrate this milestone for Theresa's Reviews, I'm sharing a children's clothing brand my family adores, Feltman Brothers, with a giveaway at the end of the article. During our milestone celebration, we took nice photos, and we spent the day grilling for the first time of the year and playing in the yard. If you click those links, you can see the fun we had! Spring Dresses From Feltman Brothers If you're looking for beautiful spring dresses for your little ones, you're in the right place. Today, Theresa's Reviews features the Blue Smocked Dress With Pearls from Feltman Brothers. Not only is the style gorgeous, but the fabric is also lightweight and perfect for warmer weather. My daughter has worn a Feltman Brothers dress before this photo shoot. Over Christmas break, we had a mother and daughter day out and took photos for the article 3 Tips For Your Children's Holiday Photos. Then, she wore the Smocked Holiday Dress, which comes with festive red and green stitching. I like Feltman Brothers dresses for few reasons. First, the style is wholesome and age appropriate. Next, since my daughter has worn one of their dresses before, I have seen that the dresses hold up well and are durable. Finally, the sizing is generous enough that the dresses may still fit next year. Isn't the dress adorable? I can't wait to take my daughter somewhere special so she can show it off to everyone! $60 Feltman Brothers Gift Card Giveaway Thanks again for helping Theresa's Reviews get to 5k Twitter followers! To show my appreciation, I am giving away a $60 gift card to Feltman Brothers. Complete the entries with the simple Rafflecopter widget below. a Rafflecopter giveaway Disclosure: I received a free item, but it in no way influenced my opinion. 4 Responses Bree Courtney April 30, 2017 I'd never heard of Feltman Brothers before, but that dress is adorable, perfect for Spring! Also, thank you for the Twitter tips. It is my least favorite social media outlet, but I know it's important so I'm always trying to learn how to do it better. Reply Shann Eva April 30, 2017 I love this dress! It looks adorable on your daughter. I wish they made one in my size! Thanks for the great review and giveaway too. Congrats on Twitter…that's amazing! Reply Sylvester Vanessa May 17, 2017 Feltman Brothers is a cute brand of good quality. I enjoyed your post and congrats on the 5K followers! Reply C. Gibson May 17, 2017 Wow 5k followers, that's great. I just started on twitter myself, and still trying to learn how to use it.

I just signed up for the free membership - limited income and cannot afford premium Membership.
However, I really want to get to know other members. I've just returned to quilting after a 10 year hiatus. Need to refresh my abilities.
I recently found int the free patterns downloads a quilt I want to make. It is just what I need for my GGS and won't need it to be done for at least a year. Since my income is limited I need to purchase the fabrics piecemeal.
My problem is - I cannot find the fabrics listed for the project on the site listed. I need specific fabrics from Hoffman California Fabrics. I went to their site to find them(and the prices) but could not find even the first one I researched.
Any suggestions as to what I need to do? Are the free downloads so outdated that the fabrics are no longer available?
Any help would be greatly appreciated. I would also like to find some other quilters in my area who may be members here.
Hi there Swamp Cat Nana!
Welcome to the site. I used to live in NH but I became a Texan almost 10 years ago. Winters are MUCH milder! I saw on the news you're getting a nor-easter already! Welcome to winter! You might try EBay or Amazon.com for those fabrics you're looking for. You might even try just Googling the fabric name and manufacturer and see what turns up.
Good luck!

Welcome to the site. Hope you enjoy your time with us. Some of the patterns have been online for quite some time. If you look at the pattern it will show the date it was posted. Hope you can find the fabrics. You might try www.thousandsofbolts.com They usually have a large selection of the out of date fabrics.

hi lee, welcome to the group

Hi Lee,
Welcome to the site. Lots of helpful people here :-)
Thank you to all of you. I am glad to be here. Thank you, also, for the great suggestions on how to find the fabrics. My brain must be detached today b/c I guess my first move should have been to contact the fabric company(Hoffman)!
I hope i can offer help along the way either on sewing in general or OTs if asked. I've done tons of sewing of all kinds of items. My first post High School job was as an alterationist in a Bridal Salon. I've made items from simple aprons to men's jackets, handsmocked baby dresses, and draperies. So I do have something to offer.
Thanks, again, for the suggestions.
BTW - how do I set up a signature?
I started out with garment making as well. Did lots of bridal alterations...not one of my favorite tasks...LOL. Made lots of formal gowns for proms and bridesmaids. And made all of my girls clothes when they were little. Don't much like making garments anymore. Now all I want to do is quilt.
Lee, go down to the bottom left of the page and click on ask a question. Then under managing your account, it will have a place to click on adding a fancy signature.
Welcome, Lee.
Thank you Sheri! Another problem out of the way! I consider that a good day! LOL
Glad to meet you Nana. That is what my granddaughters and GGS call me. I am known as Nana Lee on several sites I visit. One in particular is food.com.
Where abouts are you located?
TY LaJuan
Nice to meet you, Lee! My brother lives in Boston and I visited him in April. He took my husband and I on a 4-day bicycle tour of the town (nice, slow, leisurely pace).
Is that your cat posed on the pumpkins? Very cute!
On the banks of the Mississippi River in north central Minnesota (Brainerd lakes area)
Hi, Nancy. Nice to know you have a connection to Boston. It is a beautiful city, sort of like NYC but less noisy and dirty. LOL
No the cat is a photo of another Facebook member and it was posted on the Planet Cats page. My Teddy is a Maine Coon clone(but only 12#) and CiCi is a small black and white tux. You probably be seeing photos of them soon enough.
Do you have any pets? Mine are very proprietary and need to inspect everything!
Glad to meet you. What is your latest project? Is it in your gallery?
Hi Lee welcome. I live west of Boston and 10 minutes south of Worcester in Millbury. You will love this group, very friendly and helpful in many ways. Which pattern is it, it may be an older one and the fabric may no longer be available.

Chavanne Professor of Religious Studies, Rice University, Houston, Texas. Emeritus Professor of the History of Christianity, Chicago Theological Seminary. Editor of Melanchthon on Christian Doctrine and others.
Primary Contributions (1)
German author of the Augsburg Confession of the Lutheran Church (1530), humanist, Reformer, theologian, and educator. He was a friend of Martin Luther and defended his views. In 1521 Melanchthon published the Loci communes, the first systematic treatment of the new Wittenberg theology developed by Luther. Because of his academic expertise, he was asked to help in founding schools, and he played an important role in reforming public schools in Germany. Early life and education Melanchthon inherited from his parents, Barbara Reuter and Georg Schwartzerd, a deep sense of piety that never left him. From his Bretten surroundings (where five citizens were burned as witches in 1504), he absorbed a sense of the occult that combined later with biblical references to stars, dreams, and devils to make him a firm believer in astrology and demonology. In 1508, within a period of 11 days, both his grandfather Reuter and his father died, his father after four years of invalidism. Humanism...

Auto "Bailout"
7 RepliesJump to last post
Looks like the Senate won't make tomorrow any fun. Futures are down 277 as of this post.
UAW screwed the deal. Wouldnt take a pay cut to save their jobs. Geniuses.
They end up screwing themselves
Reality check: The currently projected cost of "The Bailouts (to all sectors)" as they stand now is roughly $8 trillion (keep in mind, these are still based on government estimates, so it's probably safe to multiply by a factor). For that current estimate, the Treasury could cut (with borrowed money, of course) a check to every man, woman and child; legal and illegal, in this country for about $27,000.00. Raise your hand if any of this is rational or realistic.
Here's a quick and dirty source. One with which I'm sure we're all familiar. And it's not a "radical, right-wing" source, by ANY stretch:
YHWY and Ice,
Isn't it fair to assume that on the government's balance sheet, liabilities as well as assets are increasing? So we're spending these trillions of dollars, but we are also getting assets in return...

Both a new clip and poster have arrived for Skinwalker Ranch. The film is slated for an October 30th release. Read on for the goods.
This film has us very intrigued as to how it will work. We love alien flicks so this one is right up our alley.
Plot Crunch:
In 2010 "Skinwalker Ranch" gained media attention after experiencing a wide range of unexplained phenomena. Reports ranged from UFO sightings to livestock mutilation, but maybe most notable was the disappearance of ranch owner Hoyt Miller's eight year old son, Cody on November 11, 2010. Close to a year later, Modern Defense Enterprises (MDE) has sent a team of experts to document and investigates the mysterious occurrences, which only escalate upon their arrival. The incidents become more violent, causing tensions to rise as the team must decide how far they will go to unlock the mysteries of "Skinwalker Ranch." The group debates whether the answers are worth risking their lives for, or if they should just call off the investigation and leave the ranch – that is, if leaving is actually an option…
Devin MGinn directs; Jon Gries, Kyle Davis, Erin Cahill, Devin McGinn, Matthew Rocheleau and Steve Berg star.

Jeff Mangum is a mysterious character. A front man for a band who disappeared just as he was receiving critical acclaim. Vanishing into the woods to hunt the last remaining American Bison while youngins the world over reflect on the beauty of his lyrics. I completely made that up, I think it was moose he went to hunt. But the rest is true.
How many songwriters have written the elusive perfect album? In The Aeroplane Over The Sea is one of those. It sounds like it could have been a psychedelic concept album in the late 60's. A mix of "We're Only In It For The Money" and something by an alternate universe Neil Young. I'll admit I came very late to the party, only learning about Neutral Milk Hotel a few years ago, but that makes it no less powerful. (Maybe it makes it MORE powerful, ever think of that? Eh?? DID YOU?! Ok, on we go.)
It was announced about 8 months ago that Mangum would do a series of solo acoustic shows, including one at the greatest venue on earth, the Loews Landmark Theater in Journal Square, Jersey City. This blog may be filled with sarcasm, but that statement is 100% sincere. I lived in Journal Square, the cultural center of the known universe, for several years. We had the chance to see Beck, The Magnetic Fields, The Decemberists, and a ton of classic movies at the Loews, and it never disappointed. If Dracula suddenly appeared in one of the dark imposingly giant boxes beside the stage, no one would be surprised.
Seeing iconic figures after years of absence is always a tricky proposition. Someone who's songs meant so much to so many, has a lot to live up to. What if he just plain doesn't have it anymore? There are a lot of long notes in those songs…What if it's just a money grab and he doesn't really care? (solo acoustic….you've got NO overhead man, rake in the dollars!) Then it gets you thinking about why Mangum backed out of the spotlight in the first place.
It has often been said, that had Vampire Weekend died in a fiery plane crash directly after their first album, they would be remembered as legends. Forget how much you hate them, and imagine if it were not overplayed and there were no backlash. Maybe Mangum realized this, and took a step back. Maybe he figured "Well, there's 11 perfect songs, many people work their whole lives for much less, I'm goin' on break." Who knows, this is not Being John Malkovich, although we were fairly close to the NJ Turnpike.
After a leisurely stroll around the Loews (seriously, the bathroom lounge must have been THE place to hang during the 1930's) the lobby lights flickered like an opera performance, and it was time to go. Mangum appeared with several acoustic guitars and launched right into it.
His voice seems nearly unchanged. Yes, there were some almost flubs…but those crazy high sustained notes were all there. The man has breath control like a fucking dolphin. All the hits were played, and the crowd was very respectful, at least from where we were sitting. Yes, it was beautiful, but at times I wished there were a little more sound. At one point, he brought on some Flugelhorn and Clarinet, and it was fantastic. If they had played the classic horn lines with him the entire show, I would have been an emotional wreck, collapsed on the ground bawling like an infant. Imagine the water damage? There were a LOT of sensitive people in that theater. Maybe it was a safety issue.
Seeing a songwriter perform solo, often gets you right into the heart of a song. For some reason, I think Mangum's songs are pretty wide open to begin with. Even with all the beautiful noisy arrangements on Aeroplane, the song always comes through, its as if Mangum was the Sinatra in front of the Basie Orchestra of whimsical noises. So maybe this was just showcasing what we all knew already. Not to say it wasn't a great performance, it certainly was, it's just hard to fill an entire theater with a tiny guitar (his voice certainly did the job, we're talking instrumentally here.)
So who knows what will happen. His last release of new music was many years ago. What has he been doing since? If he was sitting in his living room playing "Two Headed Boy" over and over again…no one would blame him, but we'd like to think something new could be on the horizon. He played a set at Occupy Wall Street, so there must be some motivation there? I refuse to speculate. Let's just let Jeff be Jeff. He has a heavy legacy to deal with, he can do whatever he fucking wants, ok?

In the days of the Mayas, cenotes – deep, natural pits on the Yucatan peninsula - provided the only means of obtaining drinking water. But in the mythology of this advanced civilisation, these waterholes and caves were also the entrance to Xibalba – the underworld. All deceased were obliged to pass through Xibalba and wait there until they were called into heaven. It was a place in which one made sacrifices to the gods – objects of daily life, as well as bloody, human sacrifices. To this day, the relics of these acts are still in place preserved underwater for more than a thousand years. The entrance to the underworld begins at a dirty waterhole in the middle of the Mexican jungle overgrown and barely recognisable. But immediately after entry, a hall of breath-taking dimensions and beauty is revealed. As if they were sculptures, stalactites and stalagmites lend the underwater cave an almost sacred ambience. By now, one has succumbed to the fascination emanated by the world's largest underwater cave system. We accompany four professional research divers to Yucatan – a team of specialists, able to squeeze their bodies through crevices and holes, barely larger than their bodies and who master dives that would push even the most experienced divers to their limits. With them, we penetrate worlds only a few people have ever ventured into. We encounter the remains of human victims, prehistoric fireplaces and primeval animal skeletons and undertake a dive, which takes us from the primeval forest to the open sea. We then enter Xibalba – the place of myths and the dead. In the days of the Mayas - a voyage of no return. Today, this is one of the greatest challenges one can face as a diver – the hidden world of the underwater caves of Yucatan – all filmed in 3D.
The State Hermitage Museum in St Petersburg is one of the largest and most visited museums in the world. Margy Kinmonth's film tells the story of its journey from imperial palace to state museum, investigating remarkable tales of dedication, devotion, ownership and ultimate sacrifice, showing how the collection came about, how it survived tumultuous revolutionary times and what makes the Hermitage unique today. Holding over three million objects and boasting more curators than any other museum, the Hermitage's story is Russia's history in microcosm and its art has lived to tell the tale
How should art depict the relationship between man and God? How can art best express eternal values? Can you and should you portray the face of Christ? For over 1,000 years these were some of the questions which taxed the minds of the greatest artists of the early West. In this three-part series, art historian Andrew Graham-Dixon sets out to unravel the mysteries of art from the pre-perspective era". In the first episode, Andrew traces the beginnings of Christian art in the declining Roman Empire, Egypt and medieval France, and reveals the ideas which lay behind the transition

Andrew Graham-Dixon begins his exploration of German art by looking at the rich and often neglected art of the German middle ages and Renaissance. He visits the towering cathedral of Cologne, a place which encapsulates the varied and often contradictory character of German art. In Munch he gets to grips with the earliest paintings of the Northern Renaissance, the woodcuts of Albrecht Durer and the cosmic visions of the painter Albrecht Altdorfer. Andrew also embarks on a tour of the Bavarian countryside, discovering some of the little-known treasures of German limewood sculpture.
