spiderman blanket
profsusan....i saw your blanket the spiderman web...i would like to know if you have the pattern for it, i would love to make that for my 4 year old grandson....could you let me know ...thank you, lois
Didn't mean to step on any toes, Susan. I just didn't know when you might be stopping by again, and I know how impatient I am when I'm looking for something, so thought I'd help out. I really loved your ghan. I might just have to make one for my new grandson.
thank you both for your quick response, this forum is like magic to me so far whatever i was looking for you knew just where to get it...again if i could help anyone i will do my best thanks lois, oh susan which blanket did you like better the 1st or 2nd one.......they both came out beautiful....
I actually changed it a bit from the posted instructions - this is what I used:
First 5 rounds  Red
3 Rounds  Blue
1 Round  Black
4 Rounds  Blue
1 Round  Black
4 Rounds  Red
1 Round  Black
5 Rounds  Red
1 Round  Black
5 Rounds  Blue
1 Round Black
4 Rounds Blue
1 Round Black
This seemed about the right size without getting too large and I didn't like the three sections of red. If you notice the pictures, one has a round of black between the first 5 of red and 3 of blue and the others don't. I didn't but I think next time I would - it almost looks like it's missing. (look at my posted photo on this site) Play around with the rows/size depending on whether you want it more as a throw or a bed cover.
Here it is. The pattern was listed in the left column.
Here is a link that might be useful: Spidey blanket

The Milwaukee Journal Sentinel editorial board wants you to know that just because three year after the owner of the Bucks started agitating for a new arena, everybody is still just staring at each other wondering who's going to pay the half-billion-dollar-plus price tag, they still think it's a great idea. Because "everyone is still talking about a new arena in Milwaukee. And when everyone talks, something usually happens." And because "a small city in a cold climate needs all the quality-of-life amenities it can get." And also because "if Milwaukee wants to remain an 'NBA city,' the city must comply with NBA standards," which are never defined, by either the paper or the NBA, but never mind about that, Seattle wants your teeeeeeeeam!
Not that the Journal Sentinel editors think Milwaukee should just roll over and give the new Bucks owners anything they want, oh no: They suggest the state could kick in $150 million, the city and county kicking in something that "may depend on the size and scope of any nearby development spurred by a new arena" (why, we're again not told). And then maybe the Bucks owners will actually kick in something more than $150 million out of their own pockets, notwithstanding that the Journal Sentinel itself has already reported that they won't.
In other words, there's nothing new here, other than "Jeez, guys, everyone's been talking about an arena without knowing how to pay for it for years now, why give up on that momentum now?" And, presumably, trying to turn up the heat on elected officials to get a deal done, especially when you consider that it ends like this:
Where's former Gov. Tommy Thompson when we need him? He'd know exactly what to do.
What has Thompson been up to since leaving Wisconsin elected office, anyway? Oh, right, lobbying his old bosses in government for Medicaid changes that would directly benefit his private companies. Yeah, he would no doubt know exactly what to do, but something tells me he'd more likely be sitting on the other side of the negotiating table.

Purchase: Purchased from Horse Saddle Shop online $1150
Likes: Love the saddle and so does my short backed horse! Very comfortable for both of us. I'm rigging it in "full" position which is working out great for us. Break in period is short. Close contact feel. Very lightweight and easy for me to handle.
Dislikes: Need to use a one inch thick supportive pad underneath...I already do this, but I think the saddle needs this for extra support.
Quality: Beautifully made! This saddle is a lot less $$ and compares to the Circle Y

Gallery: RICHARD SWEENEY PAPER SCULPTURE
UK designer Richard Sweeney took our breath away with these 3-dimensional sculptures made from the most ordinary of materials: plain old paper. The intricately folded forms are absolutely striking in their clean symmetry and the shadows cast by the curves and crevices. You can stare with jaw-dropped awe at most of his paper sculptures at his Flickr page. Geometry has never looked so good… Sweeney (just 22-years-old!) was recently recognized for his ingenuity with the New Designers DKNY Award. Not sure these works are made from recycled paper, but there's no reason they couldn't be.

I would not hesitate if this is the product that you would want. Great Quality
My daughter wanted some new photo albums for Christmas. She wanted some to match others that she had, but were no longer available. These fit the bill!
Have four of these albums and am quite impressed with the quality; beautiful and sturdy.
These are nice heavy duty books. The description didn't say so, but they are "archive" quality. I have been purchasing this style of book for years through various sources. O has a great price on them, but this brand does not have a contents page in the front. Great, fast service from O as always.
I bought these first in brown, and love how they look on a book shelf, we take a LOT of photos and storing them gets costly. These books fit a lot of pictures and are a great value for what you see in stores. I would recommend these albums!

Two bald eagles sharing a rodent and fending off attacks by long-tailed magpies down by the Calgary Zoo.
Cool... Nice eagles...
It was a nice day for photos yesterday wasn't it... Although I went somewhat anti-nature and hiked around Bonnybrook industrial instead :)
This was actually about the only picture I got of them alone -- all the rest had magpies flying around, being a pain. ;-)
I really enjoyed this shot linda!
Thanks, Mitch -- even though I've only got a little point-and-shoot, I think I'm getting better with it. ;-)
Very Nice catch.... I love the eagles, I live in the river valley and it just never gets old seeing them.. of course, I never have my camera at the right time....

BCAC Update.....
Finally the warmer weather arrived and possibly at the absolute worst time as the fish in Cottington decided to start spawning the day before the start of the qualifier which certainly suggested a difficult weekend ahead.
We arrived at 7am on the Friday which allowed for several cups of coffee and a lap of the lake before compiling our list of swims ahead of the draw. The draw started and our names were called out third, and with our first choice swim still available we m...
A sting in the tail
With the local fishing still not up to scratch, I was recently looking forward to a week in Tralee Bay, in Kerry, Ireland.
I've been targeting a stingray for my all-time species list which only includes fish caught in UK and Irish waters, and so far a stinger had eluded me. The Tralee area is though, one of the best for stingray. However the late and cold season was just as prevalent there and it was only literally just prior to my trip in late May that news filtered throu...
Practice doesn't always make perfect! By Tim Swain
We have just returned from...lets just say a less than successful start to the BCAC this year. We came out 10th out of 12 in the draw and sadly went out in the first round.
The swim we ended up in had failed to produce a fish in the previous 2 years of competiton so the fact we managed to land 5 fish was a small consolation.
Fishing with coco & banana bottom baits and pop ups we had been catching a lot of fish from Lake 7, Orchard Place Farm in Kent in the weeks run...
Taking up Golf .......Dave Weaver
It's been a long time since my last blog, this is due to a very long blanking spell, some 30 or so nights of watching my rods do absolutely nothing. No matter how much I watched, walked, climbed trees, baited spots I was unable to buy a bite. Confidence was at its lowest and I was seriously thinking of packing up the carp fishing and taking up Golf instead. Even my trip to France I managed a blank.
The weather was miserable, cold, wet, snow, you name it we had it. I decided ...

Richard Cole from Southampton landed his Personal Best Plaice weighing 4Ib 2oz. Richard was using 8Ib class tackle ...
Springtime 30's......Neil Dalton
Arrived in sunshine for a change, to an empty lake, no other anglers braving the early spring. No fish showing, no signs at all, so chose the swim for comfort. Threw around for half an hour with the lead and found a lovely spot. Found two beds of Canadian Pondweed, and between the two beds of weed was a nice little run of silkweed. The gap between the two beds of Canadian Pondweed was only about six foot, 70 yards out. To my right was a deep margin with a clean gravel bottom ...
Putting a bend in the rod....Ben Holden
Since my last blog I have still been fishing a huge low stock gravel pit but
with still no action after doing 15 nights already this spring I was still
without a carp so when my good freind Paul asked if I would like to get a bend
in the rod over in France for a few days I jumped at the chance the lake in
question was Bossard which has a good reputation of holding a decent head of
large carp.
When we arrived at the lake it looked stunning with carp showing themselves al...
Catching Up....James Fiddler
I haven't written a blog for a couple of months now, but I have been doing bit. Firstly I have been pre-baiting my local water every few days since we had that lot of snow at the end of March. After two Months of putting bait in, there was a break in the weather and few days of sunshine so I decided to go and do a couple of hours. I was confide...

Syndicate fishing...Steve Peach
Hello again, I've been fishing my syndicate for the last few weeks, keeping the bait going in on a regular basis but the fishing has been slow and when I got the message the lake would be shut for a week to let the fish get over their spawning I decided it was a good opportunity to have a night out fishing with my dad at FAS lodge pond, where he's be catching a few on the gulp! Carp boilies.
We arrived around 4pm and the pond was very busy and only a few swim were free, so w...

We love to stop in for yogurt after dinner. They have great flavors and toppings to please most any taste. I love the coconut yogurt! There are tables inside and places to sit outdoors as well. Friendly staff and the place is very clean.
The yogurt flavors at this place are just bad. Which is a shame because they have a great topping bar. The yogurt has little to no flavor and isn't as creamy as some of its competitors. Bizarre flavors that don't taste the best. Definitely wish this area had another option!
Love this place. They are always super friendly and lots of flavors to choose from. Also the selection of toppings is one of the best I have seen. You get sample cups and can try all the flavors before you decide.
This was my 1st time ever in a self-serve frozen yogurt shop. The restaurant was very clean and modern. Floors were shiny clean - all food areas were kept clean. Frozen yogurt and toppings were delicious.

How economies work – and don't
the Great Green Tax Shift maxed out" Economically, taxing pollution and depletion does reduce pollutants and extracts – and thus the tax base; plus such taxes are regressive, requiring a safety net. On the other hand, collecting site rent is progressive and generates a revenue surplus payable as a dividend to residents, which can serve as the safety net. Environmentally, taxes on waste and extraction do not drive efficient use of land, as does getting site rent. Better settlement patterns do reduce extraction upstream and pollution downstream. Politically, green fees have less impact if applied locally; local is where grassroots movements have more impact. Yet getting rent usually entails shifting the property tax (or charging user fees), the province of local jurisdictions; both mayors and city voters have been known to adopt a site-value tax. Ethically, putting into practice "tax bads, not goods" skirts the issue of sharing Mother Earth which collecting rent confronts head on. Since nothing is fixed until it's fixed right, ultimately, greens must lead humanity into geotopia where we all share the worth of Mother Earth.
more transformation than reform; it's a step ahead. Harvard economics students this year did petition to change the curriculum, in the wake of the English who caught the dissension from across The Channel. French reformers, who fault conventional economics for conjuring mathematical models of little empirical relevance and being closed to critical and reflective thought, reject this "autism" – or detachment from reality – and dub their offering "post-autistic economics". Not a bad name, but again, academics define themselves by what they're not, not by what they are, unlike geonomists. We track rent – the money we spend on the nature we use – and watch it pull all the other economic indicators in its wake. We see economies as part and parcel of the ecosystem, similarly following natural patterns and able to self-regulate more so than allowed, once we quit distorting prices. To align people and planet, we'd replace taxes and subsidies with recovering and sharing rents.
a neologism for sharing "rent" or "social surplus" – the money we spend on the nature we use. When we buy land, such as the land beneath a home, we typically pay the wrong person – the homeowner. Instead, since land cost us nothing to make and is the common heri-tage of us all, rather than pay the owner, we should pay ourselves, our neighbors, our community. That is, we should all pay land dues to the public treasury, then our government would pay us land dividends from this collected revenue. It's similar to the Alaska oil dividend, almost $2,000 last year. Indeed, the annual rental value of land, oil, all other natural resources, including the broadcast spectrum and other government-granted permits such as corporate charters, totals several trillion dollars each year. It's so much that some could be spent on basic social services, the rest parceled out as a divi-dend, as Tom Paine suggested, and taxes (except any on natural rents) could be abolished, as Thomas Jeffer-son suggested. Were we sharing Earth by sharing her worth, territorial disputes would be fewer, less intense, and more resolvable.
an answer for Jonathan of the Green Party (Nov 7): "What does 'share our surplus' mean?" Our surplus is the values that society generates synergistically. It's the money we spend on the nature we use: on land sites, natural resources, EM spectrum, ecosystem services (assimilating pollutants). It's also the money we pay to holders of government-granted privileges like corporate charters. We could share it by paying for the nature we use and privileges we hold to the public treasury then getting back a fair share of the recovered revenue. Used to be, owners did owe rent ("own" and "owe" used to be one word). And presently, some lucky residents do get back periodic dividends: Alaska's oil dividend and Aspen Colorado's housing assistance. Doing that, instead of subsidizing bads while taxing goods, is the essence of geonomics. Jonathan: "Is local currency what you mean?" Editor: It's not. Community currency is a good reform, but every good reform pushes up site values. That makes land an even more tempting object of speculation. Now, any good will eventually do bad by widening the income gap – until you share land values.
not exactly Georgism, the Single Tax on land value proposed by Henry George. He did, tho', inspire most of the real-world implementations of the land tax that some jurisdictions enjoy today, and modern thinkers to craft geonomics. While his name and our remedy both begin with "geo" since both words refer to "Earth", the two have their differences. (a) George pegs land monopoly as the fundamental flaw while geonomics faults Rent retention. (b) To fix the flaw, George was content to use a tax, while geonomics jettisons them in favor of price-like fees. (c) George focused on the taking while geonomics headlines the sharing. George envisioned an enlightened state judiciously spending the collected Rent while geonomics would turn the lion's share over to the citizens via a dividend. (d) And George, as was everyone in his era, was pro-growth while geonomics sees economies as alive, growing, maturing, and stabilizing. Despite these differences, George should be recognized as great an economist as Euclid was a geometrician.
a way to have everybody pulling on the same end of the rope. Last summer's expansive forest fires shed light on growing class resentment in the West. Old loggers and ranchers rankled at the new urgency to stamp out the blazes that threatened the recent Aspenesque settlers. The newcomers expected working class firemen to make protecting their expensive homes top priority. (Chr Sci Mntr, Spt 7) The tinder for this envy? Rich people moving in bid up the price of land, making it hard to afford by people on the margin. The fault really lies with our system of privatizing land value. If this rising value were collected by land dues and shared by rent dividends – the essence of geonomic policy – who'd complain? The more people move in, the higher the land value, and the fatter the dividend paid to residents. Then people on the margin might go out of their way to invite rich outsiders in.
shaped by reality. In the 1980′s, the Swedish government doubled its stock transfer tax. Tax receipts, however, rose only 15%, since traders simply fled to London exchanges. Fearing a further exodus, the Swedish government quickly rescinded the tax altogether. (The New York Times, April 20) That willingness to tax anything leads us astray. Pushing us astray is that unwillingness to pay what we owe: rent for land, our common heritage. Assuming land value is up for grabs, we speculate. We cap the property tax on both land and buildings and the rate at which assessments can go up; while real market values rise quicker, assessments can never catch up. Our stewards, the Bureau of Land Management, routinely sell and lease sites below market value, often to insiders, says the Government Accounting Office. Once we grasp that rent is ours to share, we'll collect it all, rather than let it enrich a few, and quit taxing earnings, which do belong to the individual earner. That shift is geonomic policy.
a POV that Spain's president might try. A few blocks from my room in Madrid at a book fair to promote literacy, Sr Zapatero, while giving autographs and high fives to kids, said books are very expensive and he'd see about getting the value added tax on them cut down to zero. (El Pais, June 4; see, politicians can grasp geo-logic.) But why do we raise the cost of any useful product? Why not tax useless products? Even more basic: is being better than a costly tax good enough? Our favorite replacement for any tax is no tax: instead, run government like a business and charge full market value for the permits it issues, such as everything from corporate charters to emission allowances to resource leases. These pieces of paper are immensely valuable, yet now our steward, the state, gives them away for nearly free, absolutely free in some cases. Government is sitting on its own assets and needs merely to cash in by doing what any rational entity in the economy does – negotiate the best deal. Then with this profit, rather than fund more waste, pay the stakeholders, we citizenry, a dividend. Thereby geonomics gets rid of two huge problems. It replaces taxes with full-value fees and replaces subsidies for special interests with a Citizens Dividend for people in general. Neither left nor right, this reform is what both nature lovers and liberty lovers need to promote, right now.
of interest to Dave Lakhani, President Bold Approach (Mar 8) and Matt Ozga (Jan 29): "I write for the Washington Square News, the student run newspaper out of New York University. Geonomics seems like it has great significance, especially in this area. When was geonomics developed, and by whom?" About 1982 I began. Two years later, Chilean Dr Manfred Max-Neef offered the term geonomics for Earth-friendly economics. In the mid-80s, a millionaire founded a Geonomics Institute on Middlebury College campus in Vermont re global trade. In the 1990s, CNBC cablecast a show, Geonomics, on world trade as it benefits world traders. My version of geonomics draws heavily from the American Henry George who wrote Progress & Poverty (1879) and won the mayoralty of New York but was denied his victory by Tammany Hall (1886). He in turn got lots from Brits David Ricardo, Adam Smith, and the French physiocrats of the 1700s. My version differs by focusing not on taxation but on the flow of rents for sites, resources, sinks, and government-granted privileges. Forgoing these trillions, we instead tax and subsidize, making waste cheap and sustainability expensive. To quit distorting price, replace taxes with "land dues" and replace subsidies with a Citizens Dividend. Matt: "This idea of sharing rents sounds, if not explicitly socialist, at least at odds with some capitalist values (only the strong survive & prosper, etc). Is it fair to say that geonomics has some basis in socialist theory?" A closer descriptor would be Christian. Beyond ethics into praxis, Alaska shares oil rent with residents, and they're more libertarian than socialist. While individuals provide labor and capital, no one provides land while society generates its value. Rent is not private property but public property. Sharing Rent is predistribution, sharing it before an elite or state has a chance to get and misspend it, like a public REIT (Real Estate Investment Trust) paying dividends to its stakeholders – a perfectly capitalist model. What we should leave untaxed are our sales, salaries, and structures, things we do produce.
a manual. The world did not come without a way for people to prosper, and the planet to heal and stay well; that way is geonomics. Economies are part of the ecosystem. Both generate surpluses and follow self-regulating feedback loops. A cycle like the Law of Supply and Demand is one of the economy's on/off loops. Our spending for land and resources – things that nobody made and everybody needs – constitutes our society's surplus. Those profits without production (remember, nobody produced Earth) can become our commonwealth. To share it, we could pay land dues in to the public treasury (wouldn't oil companies love that?) and get rent dividends back, a la Alaska's oil dividend. Doing so let's us axe taxes and jettison subsidies. Taxes and subsidies distort price (the DNA of exchange), violate quid pro quo by benefiting the well-connected more than anyone else, reinforce hierarchy of state over citizen, and are costly to administer (you don't really need so much bureaucracy, do you?). Conversely, land dues motivate people to not waste sites, resources, and the ecosystem while rent dividends motivate people to not waste themselves. Receiving this income supplement – a Citizens Dividend – people can invest in their favorite technology or outgrow being "economan" and shrink their overbearing workweek in order to enjoy more time with family, friends, community, and nature. Then in all that free time, maybe we could figure out just what we are here for.
