Consider the "campi fiori,"
Arrayed in their natural glory.
Their existence is brief
Unless an artistic thief
Memorializes their story.
John Keesey, June 2013
John and I just returned from Umbria, Italy, where I took Elaine Searle's Botanical Art Class. We stayed for eight days at a resort, Il Collaccio, in the mountains near the walled hill town of Preci and adjacent to the Monti Sibillini National Park. The views of the mountains and valleys were beautiful; the fields were filled with wildflowers: red poppies, small wild orchids, fringed hyacinths, buttercups, and many flowers that I had never seen before.
We were a group of 13 including Elaine: four Americans including Deborah Friedman and myself from BAGSC, six women from Britain, three ladies from Finland, Japan, and Trinidad respectively. We stayed in a lovely stone building in which the studio was also located. Il Collaccio provided all of our meals. They were very good, especially the lunches which were interesting, varied and served outside if the weather permitted.
There was no assigned subject. We could paint wildflowers, vegetables from the local market, or roses growing on the wall of our building. I chose to paint the poppies and a small orchid called the Bee Orchid.
Elaine gave a demonstration every morning on one of the selected subjects. We worked from 9:30 am until 1:00 pm when lunch was served. After lunch Elaine was available in the studio if we wished to continue painting, or we could take the afternoon off for a hike in the hills or a visit to one of the many Umbrian hill towns.
On one of the days we had a group outing to Spello, another beautiful walled town, and Fabriano where we were given a tour of the Fabriano Museum. Fabriano not only makes high quality art paper, they also make the paper for the Euro. We were shown how paper was originally made by hand in the 16th century and their extensive collection of watermarks. At the end of the tour we all made a piece of paper.
It was a great trip—an opportunity to see a really beautiful part of Italy, to meet new and interesting people, and to concentrate on drawing and painting without the many distractions and obligations of daily life.

Elaine Searle's "Rhubarb" (Rheum rhabarbarum), and Joan Keesey's "Hummingbird Sage" (Salvia spathacea), were both accepted into the 16th Annual International American Society of Botanical Artists at The Horticultural Society of New York.
Congratulations to both of you!

On Thursday, April 18th, John and I attended the Artist's Reception at Filoli. We spent the morning checking out the exhibit and looking at the garden, always beautiful, but sensational in the spring. The garden is a series of "garden rooms" similar to the Hidcote Gardens in England; each room is surrounded by a hedge of shrubs or trees and usually contains a fountain or pool. Each "garden room" has a color scheme. I spoke with one of the volunteer gardeners who said that the colors change with the seasons and from year to year, but each year there is a master plan. The first garden you see is the sunken garden. This year it is cobalt blue and white columbine, cerulean blue forget-me-nots, and hansa yellow tulips. The wisterias that climb up the brick walls of the Georgian style house were all in bloom and spectacular.
There were also many bushes with a very small, quinacridone red azalea that was quite stunning. It was a perfect day.
There were 64 works of botanical art by 50 artists including the two jurors, Carol Hamilton and Susan Fisher. The Botanical Artists Guild of Southern California (BAGSC) was very well represented with seven artworks by five artists—Alison Denning, Joan Keesey, Sue Kuuskmae, Mitsuko Schulz, and Deborah Shaw.
We went back for the Artists' Reception at 5:00 pm. It is always very pleasant with wine, very nice appetizers, and the opportunity to meet other botanical artists. Carrie DiCostanzo won the 2013 Roth Award for distinction with an emphasis on traditional botanical art presentation with a beautiful picture of "Ponderosa Pine" (Pinus ponderosa). Maria Cecilia Freeman won the Juror's Award with an exquisite picture of "Tan Oak" (Notholithocarpus densiflorus), and Ingrid Finnan won the Horticulture Aware with a delicate picture of "Dandelion" (Taraxacum offivinale).

Botanical Visions, an exhibition of botanical art by the Botanical Artist Guild of Southern California opened on January 12th in the Ecke Building of the San Diego Botanic Garden.
The exhibit features paintings, drawings and prints in watercolor, pen and ink, graphite and colored pencil. BAGSC member Lesley Randall organized this wonderful exhibition of ten BAGSC artists: Estelle DeRidder, Linda Ericksen, Polly Jones, Joan Keesey, Lesley Randall, Gilly Shaeffer, Janice Sharp, Deborah Shaw, Mitsuko Schultz and Patricia Van Osterhoudt.
The artwork was hung the day of the opening artists' reception in the Ecke Building. The light-filled, open-beamed room is used as a classroom, so the artwork will have lots of exposure for the duration of the show, from January 13 – March 23, 2013.
Lesley Randall, Leslie Walker, Estelle DeRidder, Joan Keesey (and BAGSC helper John), Polly Jones (and husband), Patty Van Osterhoudt (and BAGSC helper Chris), Janice Sharp, Mitsuko Schultz and I were all on hand to hang the show. Linda Ericksen joined us for the reception.
Formerly called "Quail Gardens", the San Diego Botanic Gardens are absolutely beautiful, and this is a wonderful time of year to see them. Although the gardens are extensive, with different sections devoted to plants from different parts of the world, each section feels like an intimate treasure, with delightful surprises around each bend of the path.
The exhibit will be open during regular garden hours January 13 – March 23, 2013.
Thank you Lesley!

In October, 2012, when we posted the "Stipple, then Tipple" article about Anita Walsmit Sachs' BAGSC class, we also posted a request for additional artwork as students completed their drawings. (See https://dbshaw.wordpress.com/wp-admin/post.php?post=1448&action=edit for the original article.)
Joan Keesey emailed Tania Norris' pen and ink beautiful Sunflower from the class. Thank you Joan and Tania for sharing a wonderful drawing!

Yesterday John and I visited Descanso Gardens to check out the two art exhibitions currently on display there. In the Sturt Haaga Gallery the exhibit, "The WILD Flowers", is a collection of works by seventeen contemporary California artists. Concurrently, contemporary botanical illustrations are being presented in the Boddy House; these paintings are provided by five members of the Botanical Artists Guild of Southern California (BAGSC): Joan Keesey, Sue Kuuskmae, Gilly Shaeffer, Janice Sharp, and Deborah Shaw.
It was a beautiful clear and crisp day, and although it is still winter, Descanso Gardens was very lovely; the magnificent Coast Live Oaks (Quercus agrifolia) provide the perfect canopy for the garden's remarkable collection of Camellias, many of which were blooming.
I hadn't really expected to like the exhibit, "The WILD Flowers". I couldn't conceive of how an artist could invent flowers that were more wild and astonishing than real flowers, but the pictures were very imaginative, technically accomplished, and fun. Many of them, like Potentilia multijuja by Penelope Gottlieb, included recognizable flowers and plants. I was told that Ms. Gottlieb always includes a flower that is no longer in existence.
There was one video that had bubble-gum and aqua colored slime dripping from slowly opening lilies—not sure what that was all about.
The botanical paintings by BAGSC members were very thoughtfully displayed and illuminated in the Hall and the Gunroom of the Boddy House. Without knowing that I was involved the docent was very enthusiastic about and complementary of our
pictures. Several visitors took pictures of our pictures. I am impressed and proud that BAGSC has been able to provide quality paintings for the three concurrently running botanical exhibitions in Southern California: "Botanical Visions" at the San Diego Botanical Garden, "Drought Tolerant Beauty" at Chapman University, and "Contemporary Botanical Illustrations" at Descanso Gardens.

JANUARY 15 – MARCH 31, 2013 at
Descanso Gardens in the Sturt Haaga Gallery
The WILD Flowers presents work by 17 contemporary artists who live and work in California. The show was conceived and curated to complement the exhibition When They Were Wild, which opens March 9, 2013, at the Huntington Library, Art Collections and Botanical Gardens.
Running concurrently with the WILD Flowers are works of contemporary botanical illustration provided by the Botanical Artists Guild of Southern California. This exhibit is presented in the Boddy House's Heritage Gallery and features selected works by Suzanne Kuuskmae, Joan Keesey, Janice Sharp, Deborah Shaw, and Gilly Shaeffer.
Both exhibits are free with admission and open during regular business hours: the Sturt Haaga Gallery is open daily from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m., except Mondays.

Botanical Visions, an exhibition of botanical art by ten members of the Botanical Artist Guild of Southern California (BAGSC), opens this weekend in the Ecke Building of the San Diego Botanic Garden. Guild members produce scientifically accurate as well as beautiful botanical pieces. The exhibit will feature paintings, drawings and prints in watercolor, pen and ink, graphite and colored pencil.
Come meet the artists at the opening reception, Saturday, January 12th, 2013, from 5:00 – 7:00 pm. The reception is free and open to the public.
The exhibit will be open during regular garden hours, January 13 – March 23, 2013.
Exhibiting members include: Estelle DeRidder, Linda Ericksen, Polly Jones, Joan Keesey, Lesley Randall, Gilly Shaeffer, Janice Sharp, Deborah Shaw, Mitsuko Schultz and Patricia Van Osterhoudt.
The garden is located at 230 Quail Gardens Drive, Encinitas, California. Exit off of the 5 freeway and head inland (up the hill). Turn left on Quail Gardens Drive. Go roughly 200 yards; the driveway is on the left (there is a big sign.)

It's closer than you think!
Continue about 15 minutes beyond the Huntington exit on the 210 and you are at the Theodore Payne Foundation in Sun Valley. BAGSC member Joan Kessey's Artist Reception was held there this past Sunday and it was so worth the drive!
For 30 years Joan has been painting the wildflowers near her summer cabin at Mineral King (Sequoia National Park). Her paintings are lyrical records of the delicate and charming plants that populate the area. The paintings were hung around the room in order of increasing altitude, and a map that Joan and her husband created showed the location of each specimen she painted.
The reception room was packed with art and plant lovers who were drawn to the enchanting colors and compositions of Joan's informative paintings. If you are questioning whether wildflowers and drought tolerant plants can be beautiful, then head up the 210 and be prepared to be delighted. Joan's show runs through June 30. Theodore Payne is closed on Sundays and Mondays.

Joan Keesey, BAGSC member and membership chair, will be having an exhibition of botanical watercolors, "Wild Flowers of Mineral King" at the Theodore Payne Foundation for Wild Flowers and Native Plants (TPF), Friday, March 30 – Saturday, June 30, 2012.
An opening reception for the artist will be held Saturday, March 31, 2012, from 2:00 pm – 4:30 pm.
The opening reception coincides with "Poppy Day" at the TPF, their annual spring plant sale event, which takes place from 8:30 am to 4:30 pm on March 31. Hundreds of different native California species and cultivars will be available to choose from — a great opportunity for those BAGSC members who would like to paint California natives for the Chapman University exhibition on drought-tolerant plants. TPF members will receive 15 percent off all plants in 4-inch containers, one gallon containers and up. Non-members will receive 10 percent off those same plants, and memberships will be sold at the door.
The TPF is located at 10459 Tuxford Street, in Sun Valley, California 91352. The phone number is 818.768.5215 and the wildflower hotline number is 818.768.3533.

It was very gratifying to see the Botanical Artists Guild of Southern California (BAGSC) so well represented at the Botanical Art Exhibit at the CNPS Conservation Conference 2012 in San Diego at the Town and Country Resort. There were thirteen pictures by seven BAGSC members: Diane Daly, Estelle DeRidder, Clara Josephs, Joan Keesey, Janice Sharp, Deborah Shaw, and Dorthea Yellot. Members of our group won some prizes as well: Deborah Shaw received a second place ribbon for her watercolor on vellum of Thread-leaved Brodiaea; Joan Keesey won a third place ribbon for her watercolor of Snake Lilies and Elegant Madia; Estelle DeRidder won an honorable mention for her colored pencil of Hummingbird Sage.
My husband and I visited the exhibit twice—once on Thursday evening and again on Saturday afternoon. On both visits there were 12-15 enthusiastic conference attendees who had taken the trouble to make the trip to the ninth floor of the Regency Towers to see the botanical art and photography. Generally the conference attendees were biologists, botanists, geologists, environmentalists and land managers—a different crowd from the usual botanical art group. The focus at most botanical art exhibits is on the artistic aspects of a work—composition, values, and technique. While this group was very appreciative of the skill displayed in the compositions, they were equally if not more interested in and enthusiastic about the actual subject matter. You overheard people say things like: "Oh, that is my favorite plant"; "Have you ever seen that beautiful sage."; or "This is such and interesting plant. I saw it for the first time on that hike along the Merced."
This is the second CNPS exhibit that I have participated in, and I thought that the pictures were better displayed and of a higher quality. I am particularly interested in California Native Plants, so I find a show like this a real treat. I also like botanical exhibits where there is a focus or theme. I find the juxtaposition of "Turnips & Tulips", "Corn and Camellias", "Radishes & Roses", jarring and difficult to evaluate. I hope BAGSC will consider sponsoring exhibits that are more focused—a plant family such as the mustard, pea, rose or lily family, plants of a particular region, trees, succulents, etc. The options are endless, but I think it makes a more interesting and informative exhibit.

Region 7-AAA has a problem.
FLOWERY BRANCH - With one swing of the bat Flowery Branch senior Patrick Henry wiped away any lingering doubts and helped push the Falcons into the second round of the Class AAA state playoffs for the first time in team history.
JEFFERSON - Two storied prep careers came to an end Saturday during the final day of competition at the Georgia Olympics on Bryan-Keen Track at Jefferson Memorial Stadium in Jefferson.
Gainesville's Wayne Vickery didn't have the words to console his team.
JEFFERSON - The day started slow but finished with a flurry Friday for local athletes at the Georgia Olympics on Bryan-Keen Track at Jefferson Memorial Stadium in Jefferson.
Banks County vs. Holy Innocents
Gainesville had its first taste of playoff action this season, and will have more of it today.
The Georgia State Soccer Coaches Association has announced its award recipients for the 2008 season and Chestatee's Megan Fligg and Lauren Ables are among the honorees. Fligg, who led the Lady War Eagles with 13 goals and six assists in 2008 has been named the Class AAA Player of the Year, while Ables was selected as the Player of the Month.
FLOWERY BRANCH - Mason Roberts doesn't mind the pressure.
Jefferson cruised through the first round of the Class A state playoffs with 10-0 and 18-0 wins against Trion on Friday night in Jefferson.
It was only fitting that the conclusion of Lakeview Academy's first-round playoff series with Gordon Lee was decided by a comeback.
On the strength of an 11-run second inning, Class AAA's top-ranked Flowery Branch defeated Riverwood 15-0 Friday in Game 1 of the best-of-three first round playoff series.

DALLAS—State health officials say the tallies of Texas West Nile fever cases and deaths have more than doubled over the past two weeks.
The Texas Department of State Health Services reported Wednesday that 894 Texas cases had been reported so far this year, up from an Aug. 16 count of 336. Two cases were reported Wednesday to have ended in death, one each in Dallas and Panola counties, bringing the state total to 35. The Aug. 16 death toll was 14.
Texas has been a hotbed of West Nile fever spread by a mosquito-borne virus. At least 21 of the 35 reported Texas deaths were in the Dallas-Fort Worth area, with 13 in Dallas County.
The most recent Dallas County death was reported Wednesday in Rowlett in northeastern Dallas County.

Although aimed at students, this book will be a godsend for anyone who finds themselves in a position where they need to write some sort of paper either at a higher level of understanding, or generally something which needs to be broad and deep. Generally this review will be written with reference to the student, but bear in mind its other uses. This is a serious book for the serious student. It is a book which goes much deeper than anything you will be taught in seminars or one to one meetings with a lecturer. A big book in terms of content and page size, though surprisingly it is not too thick. It seems to be printed on thin but strong ... Read the complete review

Thanks for taking the initiative to find this story and to share it. Thank you for also sharing from your difficult times. It helps to know that others have stared down tough circumstances and persevered.
November 11, 2010
Such a lovely story. So glad Butch and you shared it with us. I thank God for our veterans.
Several of your words really hit home with me:
"That's the way [the enemy] wanted it. They'd rather wound us, than kill us. They figured the wounded would hurt us more."That's so true. Satan knows when a believer dies, that his chances to win them back to his side are over. So he'd rather keep us alive in pain, then let us die and slip through his fingers.
"He knows my heart and I've been faithful to do what He's asked me to do.
I am free."
The ultimate freedom! -
November 11, 2010
I haven't had time to write a full post, but how is God setting me free? Through writing. I've been working on my story, that I know God wants me to share. As I look back and rehash things I thought were long buried, I'm learning that by keeping things buried, I carry them with me like a knapsack full of rocks. As I get the rocks out in ink and type, the knapsack gets lighter and lighter. (No, I haven't posted anything yet, but I will – once I get it all written.)
I am free! Free to share, free to write, free to let God's goodness flow from my heart through my fingers. It's such a joy. Such a joy!

I never tire of hearing the stories of our military heroes. Their experiences and struggles demonstrate and teach more than most. Even the Apostle Paul talks about fighting the good fight and striving for the reward.
It is often (and correctly) said that Freedom isn't free. Butch, my grandfather and others have paid the price for our freedom and I am eternally grateful. Thank you for the great interview and the insights that you share.

Thanks Bonnie for a walk down memory lane today. I hadn't even known some of the battle details myself. Dad never shared, guess he thought I would worry at the time. He is a very patriotic man with a deep love for God, family and country.
It was hard to wait at home for him while he was in combat, but thankfully our life has worked out well.

Those words can hurt. A woman whose been physically abused has bruises. You can prove it with those bruises and broken bones. But someone who has no bruises or marks of disfigurement cannot prove it. They walk around defenseless, afraid because if they said anything no one would believe them. So you say nothing building walls around you so you can't get hurt again.
The problem with that is the friendships it keeps out. God loves us. He is our Father when all others let us down. We can trust Him with the unseen. To trust Him means taking a step around the wall and facing both friend and foe without anything between you and them. The funny thing about that wall is it still hurt. It didn't protect me as I thought. It kept those who wanted to help away. Trusting God and letting Him set me free allowed me to walk without walls. He allows me to become transparent because I realize He has the best super glue around for broken hearts.

Thank you Bonnie. I needed to hear this. I haven't had time to blog lately and write. I haven't written anything since the last time I jammed with you here. I haven't even journaled just for myself like I usually do.
I have been dealing with another battle. This time my own health instead of my husband. I am now being diagnosed with heart issues. Oddly enough they think it might be the exact same thing as my husband. At least it did not send me to the ER. We figured out at an office visit when I just went in for a routine exam.
My own survival technique is stuffing and avoiding dealing with pain. Putting on a "mask" of everything is fine and I am ok. And you are right hiding what is going on inside is no good at all. Dealing with the pain and hurt and grief is best and I needed the reminder to keep going and keep fighting. Admitting I am scared, confused, and overwhelmed is an understatement. And it time to talk about it with some trusted people, but most importantly talking with God about it.
Thank you for sharing and thank you Butch for sharing your story and allowing Bonnie to tell us.

Thanks so much for sharing!! It really added a "face" and a "name" to this day!
I had planned on participating in the jam this week, but a cold/flu bug has gone awry in me, and I'm dealing with a pretty bad asthma issue. If the meds from today's dr. visit don't impact it – then it will be a round of steroids for me. ugh. they don't like me at all, and i hate taking them, even if they do what they need to do.
I'd really prefer to believe that I can wake up in the morning completely healed!! That's my preference, and yet, if God wills to use the steroids, if there's something I need to learn through this journey that involves the side effects, or if God's just going to rock my world in other ways that this needs to lead to – then so be it.
I would appreciate prayers for spiritual warfare though, as it was an amazing conference that wore me out; a great workshop that started the tickle in my throat; and the National Missionary Convention that I'm to attend in the middle of the week (and do a workshop a week from Saturday on "HELP! My child wants to be a Missionary!"). Plenty of reasons for satan to try to keep me down.
So go to work prayer warriors…please!! and go GOD!!
love your hearts…

How is God setting me free?
anxiety…when I don't know how to get what I want (godliness) out of my family and I stress because there must be something right I should say or do but what is it? The verse God hit me with this summer: Delight yourself in the Lord and he will give you the desires of your heart…so he's been freeing me bit by bit from the anxiety of how badly we hurt each other and as I delight in him I see the wrongs lessening and I start believing he is at work in us all!
homeschooling…my daughter's anxiety and my stress. I'm the kind that likes to check things off, and she's the kind that's learning to whine to get out of things. Oh my. Does "delight yourself in the Lord" work here also? What's that look like? We enjoy parts of our day and have to practice discipline for other parts. But when we're grieved at each other, not connecting, and I feel I should just enroll her at the public school down the road, someone comes and asks if she's going to homeschool through high school and she says resoundingly: I hope so!
I've been learning from Kat over at Inspired to Action, and from Ann at A Holy Experience, and encouraged by (in)courage, and lately signed up for scripture verses daily delivered to my inbox from Zondervan. That's using the computer! Husband gave me a moleskine calendar he didn't need anymore and I'm writing a daily memory verse in it. Daily, have I memorized, have I exercised, have I strategized? Slowly I am releasing excess pounds. Learning to walk in the way of God's provision and not fret.
Thank you Bonnie, for the prompt!

Being honest about pain – This is what's setting me free right now. All the people who write, like you, in balanced transparency about their pain – I keep saying "them too" and breathe a sigh of connection. Others can relate to my past and pain. I continue to heal and progress in healing every time this happens.
I like how you wrote to focus on the freedom I can experience today – others have set the path before me and now I'm free to truly be who God made me warts, foibles, blessings, and all! It's so amazing!
Psalm 32 comes to mind – how keeping it in can harm our emotions, bodies, soul and how letting it out relieves the pressure. Most of all, how God wipes it clean when we let it out.
Loreli permalinkNovember 15, 2010
How is GOD setting me free? I imagine in many ways I have not yet recognized. You know the saying about hind sight being 20/20. As I sit here and think about what HE has been doing. HE has been teaching me to be more giving. There is more than enough. I have also learned that I am covered by the blood of CHRIST; understanding HIS righteousness in my life. I am righteous because of HE. Once you understand HIS love for you produces right believing then right living. Now that's freedom! Thank you for your story about Butch and your personal revelations! I love your BLOG!

By Mark Milian, CNN
New York (CNN) – That a popular video-sharing website is retooling its layout to highlight, of all things, the video on each page seems like a head-slapping idea.
But that's exactly what's happening at Vimeo, an online video site with an artsy fan base.
Vimeo, which is owned by Web media giant InterActiveCorp, began welcoming some subscribers and nonpaying users to a test version of its new site Tuesday morning. The website is painted in pastels, with large fonts and videos.
The revision was conceived of in 2009, the company said, and development has been going on for more than a year, Vimeo CEO Dae Mellencamp said in a recent interview here at the company's headquarters. FULL POST

RALEIGH (WTVD) -- The Raleigh Police Department is investigating the murder of a woman in the 400 block of Allister Drive.
Detectives said just after 7:30 a.m. Tuesday, a 911 caller reported that an 8-year-old girl came up to construction workers to get help for her mother, who she said was hurt in a nearby apartment building.
» Click here for a Google map of the area. «
"A little girl came out in the street, out in the parking lot here saying my mom has blood all over her, or what looked like blood, whatever and she was not responsive," said the caller.
When police and emergency workers got there, they found 30-year-old Melissa Dawn Huggins-Jones deceased.
Police said no suspects were in custody and the investigation was ongoing. They also said detectives have not determined whether or not the crime was a random act.
According to a search warrant obtained by ABC11 Wednesday, detectives have asked a judge for permission to look at Huggins-Jones' Facebook account, which they said they were told by family members she deleted on May 11.
Friends told the ABC station in Chattanooga, Tenn., that Huggins-Jones had just moved to Raleigh about two weeks ago from Tennessee. They also said she had a 12-year-old son in addition to her daughter. She was divorced and sharing custody of her children.
However, the friends said her son could not transfer this far into the school year so he remained in Tennessee with his father.
While police investigate the murder, friends and co-workers back in Tennessee are overcome with emotion.
They've set up a memorial Facebook page in her honor.
"I was just shocked. I couldn't believe it," said Chastity King. "I didn't want to believe it. I really just thought that there was some mistake."
Huggins-Jones worked at the First Tennessee Bank in Cleveland, Tenn., for several years.
Desha Maples got a text from Huggins-Jones around 11:30 p.m. Monday.
"She had a very hard Mother's Day because she was in Raleigh and her son was here," said Maples. "I told her to keep her chin up and that God had given her a new path."
"Melissa loved her children. She was an amazing mother," said King. "She loved those children more than anything in the world."
"It just didn't seem real," said Maples. "Because she always told me she would never leave her babies. Never. Never. Never."
Anyone with information that might assist detectives is asked to either call Raleigh CrimeStoppers at (919) 834-HELP or to go to the CrimeStoppers website at www.raleighcrimestoppers.org for instructions on how to report a tip online or by text message.
CrimeStoppers pays cash rewards for anonymous tips that help solve cases.

For years, my slogan has been politics is about making things better. My politics has been a testament to that belief. I have no real party affiliation as I believe there are bright stars in all political parties.
Maybe, that is why I have a special attraction to municipal politics in Ontario. There are no party affiliations. Politicians win on their merit. You can vote for fiscal conservative policies while making sure that the least lucky in life have a place to sleep and food to eat.
For the past four years, BlakeBatson.ca, Perspective Ottawa, has been my musings about a better politics for the people. Not just municipally, but provincially, federally and abroad as well. I take keen interest in shedding light with my perspective on important issues. And I hope my perspective adds to the dialogue in a constructive way.
The new BlakeBatosn.ca will seek to expand those views. Not only will I bring to you my points of view. I will highlight the priorities of other through my guest bloggers section. Guest bloggers will write about anything that they believe is pertinent in their world. Who knows, it might strike a chord with you.
So, for all my long time readers, thank you for your loyalty and support. I hope you enjoy the new and expanded BlakeBatson.ca. And for all my new readers, I hope you will bookmark this page and check back often…maybe someday offering to be a guest blogger.
Working to make things better,
Mini Bio
Blake Batson is an entrepreneur who spent over 20 years in the high tech industry before venturing off into politics. Even though just a sideline, his political endeavours clearly are important to him.
Working as a consultant to businesses, Blake finds time to work with low income housing projects and recreation for youth. But his priority in making things better for seniors.
Seniors are the fastest growing demographic in North American society but it is the sector given the least amount of planning and forethought. Incongruent policies and lack of focus and purpose by all levels of government has made seniors issues the single largest social policy challenge facing the country in the 21stcentury.
Outside of politics, Blake enjoys traveling, time with his family and restful Sundays in front of the TV watching the all news stations.

For Charles and Judith Landau, each timber-frame project is unique and an affair of the heart as well as the hands.
Charles Landau got started in timber-frame construction when he came across a book on the subject.
A general contractor by trade at the time, he now says he and Judith could never build a home using conventional techniques.
""This gets in your blood, in your soul,"" he said. ""We were never satisfied with conventional construction because so much of it lacks a real personality.""
His devotion to his craft is evidenced in his co-founding of the 600-plus member Timber-Framers Guild of America.
Timbercraft Homes have been featured in several national magazines, and the company has garnered several national awards.
Nearly all of the homes they have built are still occupied by their original owners, a fact the Landaus consider a testament to their product.

Grass is an underestimated type that catches a lot of people off guard. I have been working to create the perfect grass team for about a year now and with three tournament victories, the biggest being a sixteen person round-robin tournament, I feel that I'm closing in. However I'm never content and I as I search for ways to get stronger I ended up here. So without further ado, here is my team. Ferrothorn Item: Rocky Helmet Ability: Iron Barbs Nature: Brave EV's: 252 Atk, 168 SpD, 48 Def, 40 HP Moves: Power Whip Gyro Ball Stealth Rock Leech Seed Ferrothorn is my main lead. He's meant to get stealth rocks out and deal as much damage before going down. I don't think I'll put spikes on it since Ferrothorn never seems to last that long in a battle. The two attacks are there for type coverage, especially against water teams. With a type littered with ice beams it's important to be able to OHKO just about any water pokemon that crosses my path. Sceptile Item: Choice Scarf Ability: Overgrow Nature: Modest EV's: 252 SpA, 252 Spe, 4 HP Moves: Giga Drain Focus Blast Hidden Power Fire Dragon Pulse Sceptile is one of my sweepers. I prefer this set over the swords dance set because I can normally outspeed any threat and take them down before they end up sweeping my team. Another point is that my team is mostly physical attackers so Sceptile is nice to have to break those physical walls. Sceptile never loses its held item so unburden isn't necessary. Jumpluff Item: Flying Gem Ability: Chlorophyll Nature: Adamant EV's: 252 Atk, 252 Spe, 4 HP Moves: Swords Dance Sleep Powder Acrobatics U-Turn Jumpluff is my main bug counter and wall breaker. Most people expect a more supportive set so the element of surprise isn't a bad addition. Jumpluff rips through teams that aren't prepared by casting an opposing pokemon to sleep and powering up with a swords dance. It also OHKO's Volcaronas that aren't boosted by a quiver dance. Jumpluff is also my lead against sun teams to eliminate Ninetails, or put a dent in Heatran. Breloom Item: Focus Sash Ability: Technician Nature: Jolly EV's: 252 Atk, 252 Spe, 2 HP Moves: Spore Swords Dance Mach Punch Bullet Seed Breloom finds itself on just about every grass and fighting team and doesn't need much explanation on why it makes my team. My Breloom is running your standard techniloom set meant to break substitutes and sweep teams after they have been weakened. Shiftry Item: Leftovers Ability: Chlorophyll Nature: Adamant EV's: 252 Atk, 252 Spe, 4 HP Moves: Swords Dance Sucker Punch Seed Bomb Brick Break Shiftry is there to counter psychic and ghost teams. I can normally revenge kill a would be sweeper, but with Shiftry's frailty I'm lucky if I can get a swords dance up. I tried out Cacturn for a while, but found myself switching over to Shiftry for the better speed and ability. Tangrowth Item: Leftovers Ability: Regenerator Nature: Modest EV's: 252 HP, 252 Def, 4 Spa Moves: Giga Drain Hidden Power Ice Focus Blast Synthesis Tangrowth is there as my physical wall. Not a single, unboosted brave bird has been able to OHKO Tangrowth, while I can strike back with a super effective HP Ice to KO that pokemon. Tangrowth also does very well against fighting teams as most of them are physical attackers. If Ferrothorn is gone then Tangrowth is my backup outrage cushion. An outrage on average eliminates around 35% of Tangrowth's health to give you an idea of its bulk. Threats: Heracross has swept my team once Sceptile is gone on numerous occasions. Even Tangrowth can't seem to stop Heracross after a moxie boost. I always find it difficult to KO a Crobat and it ends up costing half my team to bring it down. Sableye never sweeps my teams, but it's always a struggle to bring down with prankster. I always get a couple burns and it becomes nearly unstoppable once Sceptile and Tangrowth are gone. Dragon Teams No dragon in particular devastates my team, but a whole team of them makes it much harder for me to win and is probably the type I lose to the most. Fire Teams The first enemy of grass still remains one of my fiercest. If Jumpluff misses that first Sleep powder and gets KO'd then my entire team seems to crumble. Steel Teams With focus blast being an unreliable move Steel is a top threat as grass moves won't do too much. Well thanks for taking a look at my team, and I'm open to any criticism, or strategy suggestions that you can offer.
I have a lot of experience with monotype, but not much with grass, so I found this very interesting! Seeing how you've even won a 16-man Round-Robin tournament makes me realize just how much time you've spent on this team. At first, I got a little suprised that you had no poke that summoned Sun, or Rain. And also I thought Ludicolo was a must for Grass teams, because combined with a Rain Dance supporter, he's a counter to both Water and Fire team. But I guess you're good without them, so let's get to my real suggestions. With 252 Speed EV's and a Scarf, Sceptile is just barely not able to outspeed +2 Cloyster. And Choice Scarf Gengar and Starmie may not be common, but they often combine it with Trick, and therefore runs Timid over Modest, so what your Sceptile should aim at, would be Outspeeding scarfed pokemon with up to 101 base speed, like Salamence and Thundurus-T. So I'd suggest only running 220 Speed, 252 SpA and the remaining in Bulk 36 in the Deffencive side you experience you most often get targeted by. If you have tested Tangela and it didn't work, don't bother reading this, but if you haven't, give it a try! with Eviolite, Tangela easily becomes a more sturdy Wall, In fact he's a Tank! He can take hits more efficent and he still got a respectable 100 base SpAttack. I've used around half an hour now, making the best Tangela to fit your team and this is the set I reccomend for you: Tangela @ Eviolite Trait: Regenerator EVs: 72 HP / 252 Def / 184 SAtks Bold Nature - Leech Seed - Hidden Power [Ice] / [Fire] - Giga Drain - Synthesis / Reflect / (another Filler Move) This set has the same SpAttack, and can even take Physical hits better than your Tangrowth... and because he does that, Leech Seed becomes a very reliable form of recovery. The only thing that is "bad" about this set, is that he loses acces to Focus Blast, and that the recoil from Brave Bird only will be around 67% of what it used to be. And btw, you could take 48 or 52 EV's from his SpA, or HP (or both) to make him outspeed the standard Choice Band Scizor, because he doesn't like Banded Bug Bite, or U-Turn from Scizor, It also helps him outspeed Jellicent :) As for Ferrothorn, I would change his EV spread a little, just place the 40 EV's from his HP to SpD, this makes Leech Seed recover more of your health, while making you more Bulky in SpD. It also has good synergy with the Rocky helmet + Iron Barbs combination, because opponents don't wanna use Physical moves on him (Bar EQ) in the first place. I also see that after you put 252 EV's on 2 stats, you like putting the remaing 4 EV's on their HP, but you should really put them on their best Deffencive Stat. This goes especcially for Jumpluff, because with 4 EV's invested in HP he loses 72 HP every time he switches in on Stealth Rocks, instead of the extremely better 71 HP loss. Also, giving every Special attacker 0 Atk IV's (might mess up Hidden Power's typing and power) will make a desperate Foul Play from the opponent Weaker... Hey! You wanted to make it as perfekt as possible, didn't you? It might only be some small details, but it'll help, just trust me on that ;)

Townley Down….. Again
Well, it looks as if the black evil injury cloud has struck again with its furious lightning, this time paying a visit to its dear old friend Ben Townley.
Ben Townley had dislocated his hip in a crash at the second round of the Australian MX Series. Townley would update the industry and his fans through his Twitter stating, "For everyone asking, my hip is back in place, but I need surgery to repair it as it's a bit of a mess. Will update when there is more news."
Though sadden, I was not surprised by this news. The extremely talented New Zealand rider could have been a favorite coming into the 2012 outdoor championship riding for Chad Reed's TwoTwo Motorsports team, but in the back of everyone's mind was if he can last a full series with no injuries.
Injuries are an unfortunate part of the sport and a part that Ben Townley knows all too well. We wish Townley a speedy and full recovery so we can see the Kiwi battle upfront this summer.
Just Another Trend?
Whether it is going organic, posting a retro picture on Instagram, riding a fixed gear bike or even playing a little "draw something", social media has made it easier for people to find out what is cool and trendy and making it easier to secretly become a little more "hipster."
So where does motocross fit in to this? Is there such a thing has being a hipster motocross rider, and is social media and the growth of the Internet presence from the industry making it easier to follow the newest moto trends?
Trends have been a force in motocross since the beginning and it is hard not to recognize some of them in the current state of the sport. Retro gear, goon-riding, and Barcia-styled rev outs have been just some of the recent trends of the past few years with the general moto public; and if you say you have not tried any of these, you are lying.
Recently there has been a growth in popularity of an old sound/smell. One that most riders grew up with but forgot after a growth in motorcycle technology. That subject I am talking about is the two-stroke.
Yes, the two-stroke is seemingly making a comeback. Many pros are buying them again (at least as play bikes), promoters are creating classes just for two-strokes, and they are popping up at more practice tracks, not just as woods weapons. But why is this? Why are people leaving their powerful/easy-to-ride four-strokes for a bike with inferior technology that is harder to ride?
Before you start to think that this is just another article about how two stokes are cheaper, lighter, and more fun (even though they are); it is not about that at all. For now I am only going to ask the simple question, could it be that motocross riders are just like the general public and buy into what is cool and trendy online?
When MXPTV began to put out two-stroke videos in the later half of the decade, it was rare and down right awesome to see the bikes racing again. And when Jimmy Decotis and Moto Limelight put out their edit of the Geico Honda rider (then privateer) shredding on his cr125, the two-stroke went viral.
Seemingly every motocross fan has heard of or seen the video by now, skyrocketing the video to almost one million views. Darryn Durham increased moto fan's interest in the bikes when he dropped his video of Durham shredding his Eleven10 Mods cr125, leaving fans saying, "I want to shred a 125 like that!"
So where does this trend go? Will we continue to see select professionals trying to qualify aboard the two-stroke much like Ricky Renner? Will the public go back to the hard to ride two-stroke and realize they do not have the skill or patience to ride the bike? Or will we continue to see huge smiles on the faces of the new owners of the two cycle machines.
One thing is for sure trends are going to be apart of motocross forever. We participate in one of the coolest sports out there (journalists are not suppose to show opinion so that has to be a fact), and people are constantly trying to make it cooler. If the two-stroke is just another "trend" so be it, I know I am stoked with my recently purchased cr125 and I can't get enough of that black and yellow JT Racing retro gear!

Meet Tyler Villopoto
Cast under the enormous shadow of his superstar older brother, most had never heard of this stylish up-and-coming racer. Recently Tyler Villopoto has found more confidence, speed and drive to push forth in his dreams of becoming a professional motocross racer. Check out this short video from Crazy Money Productions of Tyler talking about his family life, his new team and his goals for the future.
World News: Zach Osborne Injured
Is it just me, or does 2012 have the unfortunate theme of reminding us that you can never bet on the sport?
Reported by a British publication, American rider Zach Osborne was involved in a practice crash early this morning injuring his collarbone, wrist and ribs. This horrible incident could possibly make it so Osborne will not compete in the first round of the world GP series hindering his chances at the World Championship.
Osborne has looked better than ever coming off a couple podium-finishes in the West Coast Supercross Lites series, and was an American favorite to contend for the World Championship.
We wish Osborne a speedy recovery and wish him luck in the World Championships.

Though this is a primarily Supercross and Motocross based blog, I am a huge offroad fan. I found this video this morning on the twostrokemotocross Facebook page and felt the need to post this amazing video. Enjoy!
Townley to TwoTwo
Big news from Chad Reed's TwoTwo Motorsports released last night confirming that New Zealand's Ben Townley will join the team for the 2012 AMA Motocross Nationals.
Though there are mixed feelings from various fans and journalists, I am personally excited. Townley has an amazing amount of speed and the talent to battle up front for the championship like he did in 2007 against reigning Motocross champion Ryan Villopoto.
Originally signed by Factory Honda for a 450 ride after his Lites career, consistent injuries made it so fans could never see Townley's full potential on the bike. Townley will be riding the same bike as Chad (Reed) for the outdoors, putting the talented outdoor specialist once again aboard a factory Honda.
Here is the official press release
Practice Time With Weeck And Canada
After an impressive showing as a privateer racer at last year's Outdoor National series stop in Washougal, Washington, Tommy Weeck had the industry talking. The seemingly unkown rider was signed to the Motoconcepts team for the 2012 East Coast Lites Championship.
Injuries have held the Washington native back from his full potential, but he is thinking positively and looking to improve his results.
Here is a clip of Weeck talking about the traitorous Daytona Supercross along side his increasingly successful teammate, Jake Canada, as well as a little Supercross riding from the teammates.
Bam Bam Unbreakable
Two races down and we are already asking, "Can anyone stop Barcia?" It is no secret that Barcia is fast, fearless and a little crazy; so when it came time for 2012 season to kick off, many people were putting there money on Barcia to run upfront.
After proving he was here for another championship by taking the first win in Dallas, Barcia rolled into Atlanta with even more confidence that his speed could possibly be unmatched by his fellow Lites riders. A mistake in the heat race would put the lightning fast Honda rider to the ground, giving speculation that the third year Lites rider is going back to his over aggressive ways….. Yeah that thought was wrong.
Barcia would pull the holeshot and lead every lap of the main event with consistent form, proving his maturity. Barcia would not only extend his points lead, but would also become the fourth rider in history to repeat wins in Atlanta aboard the Lites bike.
With a limited amount of races in the East Coast Lites series, Barcia has found himself with a great head start above the competition for the championship. His maturity and speed have proven to be untouchable but with teammate Justin Bogle, contender Blake Baggett and Texan Blake Wharton on the charge; will Barcia be able to go undefeated?

The Ugly Truth (DVD)
Date: 06/03/11
Advantages: Acting, direction and flow
Disadvantages: Nothing really
TV producer Abby is an uptight career woman. Man's man Mike who knows everything about how men and women can get to the heart of their intended loved ones. The two of them clash initially, but Abby soon realises that he is the answer to her lack of luck in dating. What ensues is a comedy of errors as Mike tries to show her what she's doing wrong.
I honestly believe you're never going to find a romcom that's going to come close to being a dazzling Oscar winner. Therefore, it's important that those involved in making this genre of film realise there's no need to try and push the boat out. Some quirky characters, likeable actors and a good smattering of situational comedy is the best equation for success, and luckily that's what The Ugly Truth does.
Katherine Heigl and Gerard Butler are two aesthetically pleasing actors. Heigl's prettiness is matched by the way she goes about giving us Abby as a character - she tries too hard and it becomes endearing, although you'd be really annoyed if you were trying to have a date with a walking diary! Conversely, Butler's gruff take-it-as-it-comes attitude is the best thing he could be. Casting was very clever, as these two play these sorts of roles very well here.
Things have to be very flowing in a romcom like this. Ultimately, there's nothing new here that hasn't been tried before, so the pace has to dictate. I think that what director Robert Luketic does well is keep the viewer's focus switching. There are moments where the two characters start realising they have feelings for each other, and the visual acting and direction as opposed to any vocal performances really makes the tension build a bit. I found myself watching it not with trepidation but with intrigue and a slight smile on my face. There's something about being given a fly on the wall position, especially as people try and psych themselves up for things that then fall apart in a comedic way.
I can't honestly say that there were any moments where I started to get bored. Usually in a film there are moments where things just need to settle a little bit and give the viewer that element of relaxation before the next twist or thrill or shock or laugh comes along. Here, there were moments like this, but they were filled with quirky extra little things, which seemed to say that Luketic had thought of every second and not just filtering bits and bobs around the main plot. I was impressed by this, and it made the film go much quicker without pushing it and it feeling forced.
So, a decent plot, enjoyable comedy elements that are relatable, good acting and thoughtful direction all combine to make this one of the better romcoms of late. It's believable, and it plays on the fact that romance is never an easy thing despite how easy it is to analyse. Well done all round, although as I said at the outset, I can't ever see a romcom being an exceptional film. Recommended.
Summary: Very enjoyable romcom

Topic: Economics
Which of the following is primarily a macroeconomic issue rather than a microeconomic issue?
1 Answer | add yours
Of these, only B is a macroeconomic issue. All of the others are primarily microeconomic issues.
Macroeconomics is the study of the economy as a whole. By contrast, microeconomics looks at decisions that are made by such entities as individuals, households, firms, or single industries. Using this definition, we can see that A, C, and D are microeconomic issues. A is a decision on the part of a firm, C on the part of a household, and D on the part of an individual.
By contrast, B looks at the whole economy. It looks at a decision taken by a government and examines its impact on all people in an economy.

Nappe1: OM-D EM-5 Definetely. making weather proof, Image Stabilized, such high quality digital camera in such small size is a big achievment.
Pentax had sensor based IS for ages. So did Sony, but Pentax made smaller than usual DSLRs.
No 808? It is THE camera phone. There hasn't been anything like it before, nor is it likely will there be anything like it in the near future. It is peerless. It's a melding of PnS with a phone. Although there isn't an optical zoom, the lens itself is pretty stellar as well, doing well enough not to hold back a 41mp/38mp in normal mode sensor.
viking79: I would have liked to see a bit about how the ND filter works in the Samsung EX2f. It would be nice to know how well it works, if it is an optical type, etc. I think the feature is unique to all the tested cameras.
Sometimes you want a ND filter so you can use slower shutter speeds...
Jim in Hudson: Great and informative review. No question they are all very good cameras but what became apparent to me is the LX-7 is the steal of the bunch if you can find it at $300 (which you can).
S100 has a lot of lens issues, hope it's resolved in the S110.
Sdaniella: Extra Mp (due to larger sensor area size) does offer more flexible creative crop options, it's more about the relevance of how well particular pixel sizes perform 'like-size-for-like-size'.
There is nothing about the Sony RX-100 that is a 'engineering marvel' at all, when all they do is resort to using slightly larger yr2012-pixels than all the rest, albeit plastered on a large enuf sensor size to ensure more Mp overall
Based strictly on predicting IQ on pixel density (pixels/mm of sensor), larger pixels should perform better than smaller (sensor size and Mp count notwithstanding):
Best to Worst, similar pixel densities, if same*, are truly pitted 'one-on-one'*:
1) RX100 @ 415 pixels/mm
2) FujiFilm X10/XF1 @ 455 pixels/mm
3) Pany LX7 @ 490 pixels/mm
4) Oly XZ-2 @ 533* pixels/mm
4) Nikon P7700 @ 533* pixels/mm
6) Canon G15/S110 @ 538 pixels/mm
If a sensor with SMALLER pixels happen to demonstrate superior IQ to others that are LARGER, then, it's the better pixel (superior tech).
The SIZE.
Atsel: Nikon P7700 seems to deliver the best per-pixel sharpness in this test.
The operational speed and AF speed is an issue for street/sports/kids shooters etc. RX100 is blisteringly fast in comparison. S110, if it's anything like the S100, hopefully won't be burned by lens issues. The AF is also slower than the RX100's.
Can't say anything about the rest though, haven't tried them.
No Nikon P7700?
