Focus Stereo Options
Posted 14 February 2013 - 10:21 AM
Just have a few queries about my stereo (CD 6000)...
I was think the first thing I need to do is get the AUX connection wired into the glove box, but then I've seen there are lots of other options, like adding USB so you can have a more jukebox style option.
I flicked through the manual for the stereo, but it's a bit confusing as to which model has which feature! It says that the head unit can play MP3s off the CD - it does not specify if this is only on particular models, but this seems unlikely? If the CD can play MP3s then that would actually be ok (10 albums on 1 CD is enough for a few journeys!).
Have something to contribute?

As for the USB option, I think I saw a how to somewhere to installing them, but it can get difficult. I personally would rather opt for an aftermarket unit, they are rather cheap these days in the grand scheme of things, and you can get the likes of USB easily enough!
Posted 14 February 2013 - 06:57 PM
Personally I didn't want it in the glovebox so I put it on a blanking plate underneath the stereo (next to the heated screen switches)
The cable came with a 3.5mm jack on it which is snipped off and then bought a 3.5mm socket and soldered that on instead so that I didn't have a cable hanging out all the time. I can now plug in any 3.5mm jack to jack cable for any mp3 player etc to use.
It was pretty easy to do but it depends if your stereo can accept it etc.

Most guides give you instructions for the glove box, but I want to put the plug on one of the blank buttons on the centre console (e.g. next to the rear windscreen heater button). Before I take everything apart - is it easy enough to pop one of the blank ones out and to create a socket and pop back in or is that an area that's hard to work with?

Pull the panel forward so as not to strain the connections.
The button blanks have small lugs holding them in place.

Product Details
Selvedge fabric is a nod to the past. As of the late 1800s, the looms used in mills were very narrow, so to maximize the use of the fabric and to prevent fraying, the edges were sewn up, giving us the name "self edge" or, as we now know it, selvedge. Often times, a colored thread was used to differentiate between the fabrics in the factory. Our selvedge chino continues this great tradition in our Wallace & Barnes slim fit.

NEW YORK NURSE: June 2008
by Joely Johnson
Nurses can be the perfect spokespeople for helping the public understand the dangers of smoking and for providing education on quitting. Unfortunately, nurses themselves are not immune to addiction. In 2002, 15% of RNs smoked. Reports of the rate of smoking among nursing students range from 6% to as high as 24%.
Smoking rates also vary by nursing specialty, perhaps reflecting the fact that nicotine's highly addictive effects include reduced stress and anxiety. For example, 23% of psychiatric nurses smoke, compared to only 8% of pediatric nurses and 7% of oncology nurses.
In general, the tobacco industry is known to target groups that respond to marketing that touts cigarettes as sexy, socially rewarding, and a symbol of power. And the chemical cocktail that cigarettes deliver has been engineered to be extremely addictive. Willpower alone is rarely enough to kick the habit.
Some RNs feel that smoking damages the image of professional nursing. A post on a popular online nursing forum reads: "I don't think smoking can be considered a measuring tool for how good or bad a nurse is, although I always consider the fact that we as nurses are role models. How can we teach a patient about smoking cessation or a healthy lifestyle if we are the ones smoking?" Approximately 25% of nurses provide smoking cessation counseling to their patients. Such nurse-led interventions can increase quitting success rates by 50%.
The profession of nursing can also be a powerful foe against "big tobacco." According to an internal tobacco company memo from 1990, Philip Morris considered the American Nurses Association a "strong opponent" of the industry's business. The memo stated, "Nurses, as a group, feel strongly and negatively about tobacco use. As they become more active in politics… at all levels, they could easily become formidable opponents for the tobacco industry."
A group of nurse activists called the Nightingales (www.nightingalesnurses.org) aims to do exactly that. The group educates the public on the inner workings of the tobacco industry and its efforts to recruit new smokers. According to Nightingales organizer Ruth Malone, "In my own case, it helped me when I started to learn how deceptive the industry had been – I didn't want to give them any more of my money to help them hook someone else!"
The vast majority of smokers would welcome the ability to quit. There is plenty of help available for those who are ready. Sharing this information with your colleagues and your patients, particularly those with diagnoses of heart or pulmonary disease, is a positive way to encourage their smoke-free futures.
www.tobaccofreenurses.org or 877-203-4144
This national program is focused on helping nurses and student nurses to stop smoking. Their online QuitNet forum brings together smokers and ex-smokers to share advice and support along the way.

All things entertaining in Westchester, Rockland and the Hudson Valley
12-12-12 concert: Hudson Valley celebs among show's all-star attendees
New York City hosted a once-in-a-lifetime concert Wednesday night on a once-in-a-lifetime date: 12-12-12: The Concert for Sandy Relief at Madison Square Garden to benefit victims of Hurricane Sandy.
Bruce Springsteen and the E Street Band kicked off the show, with Steven Van Zandt backing Springsteen one night before his Rascals reunion concert debuted at The Capitol Theatre in Port Chester. The all-star lineup included Bon Jovi, Eric Clapton, Billy Joel, The Rolling Stones, Alicia Keys, Kanye West, Eddie Vedder, Roger Waters, The Who and Chris Martin. Paul McCartney closed the concert, and his set included a performance of a new song, "Cut Me Some Slack," which he performed with former Nirvana band members Dave Grohl, Krist Novoselic and Pat Smear.
Hudson Valley celebrities also made memorable appearances throughout the show.

12-12-12: Concert for Sandy Relief
Brian Williams interviewed Ben Stiller backstage during a break between musical performances, and Stiller discussed the hurricane's impact on Westchester, where he and his family reside.
"We live in Westchester, and we were without power for about nine days, no phones and Internet," the actor said. "But we were really lucky, I mean a few trees went down. But when you hear the stories of people in Staten Island and Jersey and the difference of the experience from different parts of the city."
"My folks live in the Upper West Side and nothing was affected," Stiller added. "And yet people's lives were turned upside down just a few miles away."
Bedford resident Paul Shaffer accompanied Adam Sandler on the piano for the comedian's humorous cover of Leonard Cohen's "Hallelujah."
Eastchester native Bobby Moynihan came on stage as his "Saturday Night Live" character "Drunk Uncle," and did a comedy bit with fellow "SNL" star Seth Myers.
Bedford resident Blake Lively also took to the stage to speak about about the scope of Hurricane Sandy's damage.
Billy Joel, who once lived in Highland Falls, sang "New York State of Mind" – and sang "Newsday" instead of "The Daily News" in the song's second bridge.
Local celebrities Jimmy Fallon, Diddy, Martha Stewart, Susan Sarandon, Gov. Andrew Cuomo, Steve Buscemi, Susan Sarandon and Chelsea Clinton were also in attendance, many of whom were on hand to take pledges for donations at the celebrity phone bank.
Heather Duval, who was visiting New York from New Hampshire, was also among the thousands standing outside Madison Square Garden waiting to get in Wednesday. She said she bought her tickets a few weeks ago for a couple of hundred dollars.
"I wouldn't spend that much money on a lot of concerts, but it's for a good cause," she said.
Michael Brown, who lives in Brooklyn, said he was given his ticket as a birthday gift.
"I donated to the Red Cross, but it's great that we can get something fun out of our money this time," he said.
Those without tickets also came to Madison Square Garden with the hope of securing tickets to the sold-out show.
Connie Lewis, who lives in Armonk, was camped out in front of Madison Square Garden Wednesday trying to get a pair of the hottest tickets in town. Her husband Bill had pondered buying tickets the day they went on sale. By Wednesday evening, even the scalpers had run out, she'd heard.
"I think the lineup is amazing," said Lewis, who also owns a home on the Jersey Shore that was damaged by Sandy's flood waters. "It's a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, and it's for a good cause."
Kirsten Lindberg, who lives on the Upper West Side, stood in front of Madison Square Garden holding up a small cardboard sign. Written in blue marker: "Music teacher needs one ticket."
Lindberg said she couldn't get tickets. "I love Billy Joel and I'm willing to try," she said.
As Lindberg told her story to a Newsday reporter, a gentleman standing nearby told her he had two extra tickets and would sell her one. Then another good Samaritan stepped in: He snapped up both tickets -- and invited Lindberg to be his guest.
"Oh my God," she told the man selling the tickets, who would only identify himself as Steve. "You're my favorite person here."
The team behind the show -- Cablevision CEO and Madison Square Garden Co.'s executive chairman James Dolan, Clear Channel president John Sykes and The Weinstein Co.'s chairman Harvey Weinstein -- was also behind "The Concert for New York City," which raised $65 million for the Robin Hood Foundation to help victims of the 9/11 terrorist attacks.
"To make a real difference, we need as many people as possible to understand the true impact of Hurricane Sandy and for people everywhere to be able to help," Dolan said. "We believe this incredible night will make history as the most widely distributed live musical event ever."
The sold-out "12-12-12" concert was shown on 37 television stations in the United States and more than 200 others worldwide. It was also streamed on 30 websites, including YouTube and Yahoo, and played on radio stations. Theaters, including 27 in the New York region and dozens more elsewhere, showed it live. More than 2 billion people were estimated to have access to the performance.

Your Comments
Dear Amy,
Thank you, thank you for creating a wonderful veggie burger! Our family (husband, myself and 5 young children) have given up dairy and are in the process of becoming vegetarian. My husband said he likes meat and wouldn't give it up...but after one taste of the Texas veggie burger and breakfast/black bean burritos, he is open to having meatless meals now! This is very important as he has high cholesterol and triglycerides...also, his fit-looking, active 63 year-old father just had a 5-way bi-pass last November. Our kids like to call veggie burgers "krabby patties" (minus the cheese) like SpongeBob, the cartoon character, orders at the "Krusty Krab" on the TV show. All five kids ages 18 months to 11 years-old like the taste of Amy's Texas Veggie Burger. We wish they came in bulk at Costco so we could serve them at BBQs this summer. Boca burgers from Costco contain dairy and aren't tasty.
Thanks again! Kim Currier

Dear Amy,
I just tried your Shepherds pie for the first time, it is so nice to eat all natural foods for a change. I am 57 years old and am changing the way I eat, I am finally reading the labels and buying foods that are not full of chemicals or worse. Keep making your excellent products as I shall keep buying them. Sincerely,

CA Coroner: Cat Sanctuary Intern Killed by Lion 'Did Not Suffer'It's a story that's made national headlines, an intern mauled to death by a lion at a California animal sanctuary. Sources say the young woman was not supposed to be in the cage, and the news of her death has people across the country talking, including right here in Montgomery. 24-year old volunteer intern Dianna Hanson died soon after a 350-pound African lion attacked her, breaking her neck, a local cornoer said Thursday. "(She) died very quickly and did not suffer," Fresno County coroner Dr. David Hadden said. Hanson was mauled Wednesday by a 5-year-old lion inside a cage at the Project Survival Cat Haven in Dunlap, California. A preliminary autopsy showed that Hanson died of a "broken neck and other neck injuries," the local coroner said. The lion inflicted other injuries "post-mortem." "I heard a couple of people talk about it at work, so it's a hot topic," said Winchell Jenkins of Dadeville. "But as far as people having dealings with animals of that nature, it should be limited." |

A view of furniture designed by Frank Lloyd Wright and recently acquired by the Huntington. (Huntington Library / October 19, 2012) |
Thirteen pieces of furniture designed by architect Frank Lloyd Wright have been acquired by the Huntington Library, Art Collections, and Botanical Gardens in San Marino. The organization said that the furniture has been on display since 2009 as part of a long-term loan from the prominent New York collectors Joyce and Erving Wolf.
The purchase was made directly from the Wolfs, according to the Huntington. It declined to say how much it paid for the furniture. Funds for the acquisition came from the Huntington's Virginia Steele Scott Acquisition Fund for American Art.
Lloyd Wright designed the furniture in the set for various interiors. He designed the nine-piece dining room suite in 1899 for the Husser House in Chicago, according to the Huntington. He created a reclining chair for the Arthur Heurtley House in Oak Park, Ill.
A spokeswoman for the Huntington said that the lenders had always intended to sell the pieces at some point, "so when we had the opportunity to acquire them, and secure them forever, we seized it."
The acquisition comprises four chairs plus the nine-piece dining set.

First, the rankings:
1. | Francisco Lindor, ss |
2. | Dorssys Paulino, ss |
3. | Tyler Naquin, of |
4. | Cody Allen, rhp |
5. | Mitch Brown, rhp |
6. | Danny Salazar, rhp |
7. | Luigi Rodriguez, of |
8. | Ronny Rodriguez, ss/2b |
9. | Jesus Aguilar, 1b |
10. | Chen Lee, rhp |
The only quibble I have is why Lee was picked over Wolters, since Lee's upside is a reliever and Wolters could become a starting middle infielder at the major-league level. Jose Ramirez is another with upside that could have been ranked.
The comments hints that the Indians' system that will very likely be ranked in the bottom third of MLB mainly because it lacks good prospects in the upper levels of the system. We'll probably start to see some of the talented players trickle into AA by the end of the season, but for the most part the Indians aren't going to get a lot of help from the farm system in 2013. Most of the top prospects in the organization ended 2012 in Carolina or below (Lindor, Paulino, Naquin, Brown, both Rodriguezes).

1971 Comments: These trees are located on a heavily traveled street in an open area. The tree lawn is extremely narrow, possibly too narrow for most tree selections. As indicated previously, these trees are affected by a number of pests and have a poor appearance during most of the growing season. They are upright and spreading in character. The trees were pruned in 1970.
1997 Comments: These trees did not survive in any location in this study. English Hawthorns planted in this study did poorly in all sites.

Transportation department prepares for possible outbreak of icy roads
With ice, snow in Christmas forecast, road equipment is set to go
The Texas Department of Transportation is ramping up its preparations for icy weather, even as residents of the Dallas-Fort Worth area continue to enjoy seasonably mild weather.
Eventually, the harsh, icy weather will get here -- right? -- and the agency responsible for maintaining more than 70,000 miles of roadway statewide will be expected to be ready.
The forecast for today calls for sunny skies and highs around 55, with a 50 percent chance of showers and thunderstorms after midnight.
Christmas Day is expected to bring rain showers before noon, then a dusting of snow with a high in the upper 40s, according to the National Weather Service in Fort Worth.
In the North Texas region, which includes Dallas, Fort Worth and surrounding counties, 29 snowplows are available.
More can be called in from places such as Amarillo if a storm is severe enough, agency spokesman Val Lopez said.
"If the storm is bad enough, we are able to flex our manpower where it is needed the most," Lopez said.
During the week of the 2011 Super Bowl at Cowboys Stadium in Arlington, transportation department crews from across the state stayed in the Metroplex for several days, working in shifts to try to keep the roads clear for commuters and hundreds of thousands of tourists.
This year, the agency has a stockpile of liquid magnesium chloride, which can be sprayed on roads as an ice preventative or used in higher concentration to break up ice that has already formed.
The agency uses a truck equipped with hoses and pipes on the front end to spray herbicide in warmer months, and a different set of pipes and nozzles on the rear end to spray magnesium chloride during an ice event.
"It comes out at the same rate, so the difference between pre-treating the roads to prevent ice and de-icing -- or removing the ice that's already there -- is a matter of how fast you drive," said Vernon Wells, a transportation department maintenance technician. "For de-icing you drive about 10 miles per hour. For pre-treating you drive about 40 to 45 mph."
The agency also has several large piles of sand, and a sand-salt mixture known as chat, to spread on roads.
In all, the battle to keep Metroplex roads open during icy weather is fought with these stockpiles:
29 snowplows -- 15 in the Fort Worth district and 14 in the Dallas district.
28,058 cubic yards of chat.
19,000 gallons of liquid magnesium chloride.

Turn back your biological clock. A breakthrough book for men--as much fun to read as it is persuasive--Younger Next Year draws on the very latest science of aging to show how men 50 or older can become functionally younger every year for the next five to ten years, and continue to live like fifty-year-olds until well into their eighties. To enjoy life and be stronger, healthier, and more alert. To stave off 70% of the normal decay associated with aging (weakness, sore joints, apathy), and to eliminate over 50% of all illness and potential injuries. This is the real thing, a program that will work for anyone who decides to apply himself to "Harry's Rules."Harry is Henry S. Lodge, M.D., a specialist in internal medicine and preventive healthcare. Chris Crowley is Harry's 70-year-old patient who's stronger today (and skiing better) than when he was 40. Together, in alternating chapters that are lively, sometimes outspoken, and always utterly convincing, they spell out Harry's Rules and the science behind them. The rules are deceptively simple: Exercise Six Days a Week. Eat What You Know You Should. Connect to Other People and Commit to Feeling Passionate About Something. The science, simplified and demystified, ranges from the molecular biology of growth and decay to how our bodies and minds evolved (and why they fare so poorly in our sedentary, all-feast no-famine culture). The result is nothing less than a paradigm shift in our view of aging.
Welcome to the next third of your life--train for it, and you'll have a ball. less

The Ottawa Hills school district has implemented a new buzz-in system at the school buildings for increased security.
Parents in the district say they appreciate the new system.
"You want your kids to be safe, especially with all the school shootings," said Nicole Dewalt, a parent.
District officials say that's exactly why they decided to move forward with the new system this year. After the Sandy Hook shooting, officials say they took a step back and evaluated their safety and security measures.
The new system requires everyone who enters one of the buildings to press a call button and be identified first. Visitors will be seen through a camera, and will be able to communicate with staff through a speaker and microphone.
Dewalt feels this measure is a step in the right direction.
"I think it just gives us an extra sense of security, because I think everybody's on guard," she said. "It's unfortunate that we have to be that way, but you just have to do preventative measures."
A second set of doors has been added to the office entrance off the parking lot at the elementary, and to the office entrance off Osborne at the high school.

BISMARCK (AP) - Supporters of a Red River diversion project around Fargo say they believe proposed amendments to a water funding bill could kill the project.
But Rep. Al Carlson, a Fargo Republican who offered the changes, says the move is meant to ensure that Cass County residents don't bear the brunt of paying for the project if federal funds dry up.
The Forum says the proposals would amend state law so that $75 million approved for Fargo flood projects in the last two sessions and $100 million being considered this year cannot be used for home buyouts or a diversion.
Cass County Administrator Keith Berndt says "there's no doubt" the amendments are meant to stop the project.
Carlson says Berndt "can take that attitude if he wants, but he's not right."

Is There A Test To See If You Need To Degloss Paint?
I am about to repaint a laundry room. I am not sure if the paint on the walls is semi-gloss, but it is at least a satin finish.
Is there any quick test to see if you need to sand the paint first? |

Is There A Test To See If You Need To Degloss Paint?
The quick answer is "when in doubt, SAND!" I mean, it will take you all of 5 minutes to sand with a pole sander or a Scotch Brand sponge sander. Most of us pros sand anyway to get any "boogers" off the walls and it allows you to see any holes you missed that you need to spackle. Just be careful when sanding that you don't hit a nail left in the wall and it catches your hand......ouch.
As far as any test, I don't know of any that exist to test for gloss. I suppose if you take your hand and can wipe it along the surface without much resistance you have a glossy surface. If you feel any sort of roughness, it's a flat. Also, semi or high gloss is pretty easy to see........it almost has a mirror like shine to it. |

Is There A Test To See If You Need To Degloss Paint?
You can test to see if you have an oil finish or latex/acrylic but I bet the latter. And if you are painting with a high bonding primer or even most waterbased paint, it no longer matters much. It used to be you would want to put down an alkyd or bonding primer first when changing between oil and water. Alkyd was the great equalizer since you can put just about anything over it.
As Gymschu suggests, with a decent pole sander and some fine grit paper, you will fly through sanding the room and will know you have done all you can to assure a nice bonding between your existing old finish and new paint. Assuming you do other prep and use good paint, and primer if needed (they do not come in the same can) you will be good to go. Remember, 95 percent of a nice paint job hides in the prep! Do get a decent pole sander as you will probably use it again and again for your projects. The super cheap plastic box store things you have to fight are not worth the money. Get one that articulates nicely from a real paint store so you are not fighting your tool. |

Is There A Test To See If You Need To Degloss Paint?
Yup- a quick sand not only doesn't hurt anything- it helps!
But (with some exception) usually going over a latex with a latex is not a big adhesion problem, particularly with quality products. It is going from an oil base to waterborne that real care must be taken.

Better not continue on that fishing trip'til you've removed your broken Ford Focus washer pump to make sure you're totally safe on the road. You will surely have a hard time thoroughly removing bug guts, dirt, and tiny rocks on your windshield when you insist on driving with a poor pump. For ideal results, review your Ford Focus ride's instruction manual about specs before doing any replacement process.
Your factory-installed washer pump is most probably located at the side of the water tank, therefore, look for it and examine its current condition. It's the washer pump's job to draw the solution from the tank into the automobile's washers, so it's definitely a crucial unit. There's a big chance your Ford Focus washer pump has now stopped working if you've been traveling with the component for years. Since you are changing the pump, you may wish to replace other components, say, the Ford Focus water tank and your motor.
The good news is that you can now get a highly durable Ford Focus washer pump right here at Parts Train where we have parts from leading brand names, for instance, AMR, OES Genuine, and Vaico. We've supported vehicle owners for many years, offering them superbly fabricated but low-priced replacement parts for virtually all marques and models. Shipping is extremely fast since we own multiple warehouse facilities established all over the country. Set up a replacement aftermarket Washer Pump right away, so you could safely ride your vehicle again.

'fossil fuel' heating systems. Porter & Heckman stuck with what they believed in, and that is to offer high efficiency geothermal heating, cooling, and hot water systems. So, here in Michigan today, and with over 1,000 installed & serviced geothermal heat pumps, we continue to grow with the geothermal heat pump market during this new and very serious "energy crisis. Yes, we do sell and install fossil fuel fired furnaces and boilers, conventional water heaters, along with Amana high efficiency air-to-air heat pumps. This is because we realize that geothermal heat pumps are not for everybody. We are in business to serve our customers with our expertise in this industry, and to help them make the right decisions on the most economical, comfortable, and reliable system, that they can afford. Our Commitments We at Porter & Heckman remain committed to giving all of our customers outstanding service no matter what it takes. Our employees respect your property as it were their own.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
"Loved how this invitation looked in person - much nicer than online. We chose the pearlized paper finish and it was a great touch. We've ordered several invitations from Paper Divas in the past years and have always been extremely pleased with the quality of the product and service. We will continue to use them for our party and invitation needs."
"Perfect for a Home Improvement themed bridal shower. I customized the wording and placement of the bride's name to turn this into a bridal instead of couples shower invitation and it turned out great! The paper is very high quality and the colors true to their appearance online. The delivery was faster than expected. My guests have raved about how modern yet classy the invitations are. A big hit!"
"The customer service is outstanding! They gave me a courtesy call to confirm my proof as to not delay processing! The paper is high quality. The order arrived on time! Easy to create! I am pleased! My friends were impressed!"
"After many hours of searching this card fit out bill to the tee...It was by far the best looking Modern card for couples...not childish...not cheesy..just perfect.. Worked well with the color scheme..can't go wrong with chocolate. Very clear and concise. Only drawback I found was that you couldn't do anything with font, color etc. At least I don't think you could..Paper quality was awesome. You'll love it. My nephew did."

Recipe by ChefNYC
"This chicken is spicy, tangy, and juicy, but with no added fat. It's easy to make in large batches, so it's perfect for a party. And unlike most curries, it's baked, so you can spend time with your guests while it cooks."
Watch video tips and tricks
1 1/2 cups Dijon mustard
2/3 cup Worcestershire sauce
6 tablespoons chili powder
1/4 cup ground cumin
2 tablespoons ground ginger
1 teaspoon ground turmeric
10 pounds bone-in chicken pieces
6 cloves garlic, minced
We are a pretty healthy couple, so we try to find easy, healthy recipes. Just for future reference, we liked the way this recipe worked, on the other hand, we did not use any chili powder, and did not marinate the chicken over night. We simply mixed together the ingredients, and spread them over a few pieces of provolone cheese which we put on top of the chicken before popping it into the oven. It came out smelling great and went well with green beans. Thanks!
This was an OK recipe. I added a bit of splenda since it had an almost bitter taste to it. My husband liked it which surprised me as he doens't care for Cumin and that was a major flavor to this. Will make it again, but keep tweaking a bit until satisifed.

i used lite soy sauce instead of Worcestershire sauce and brown spice mustard instead of dijon. also added a 1/2 teaspoon curry powder and a little less ginger. a litte olive oil in the bottom of the dish. It was wonderful!! Had it with broccoli, cauliflower, and rice.
I cut way back on the amount of mustard and worcestershire.
Not that great. I scaled it down for two chicken breasts, and reduced the ratio of Worchestershire and chili powder to mustard, but it was still too much. I tried adding brown sugar to mellow it out, but it must not been enough, because it was still very bitter after cooked. This one has potential, but needs major tweaking to make it tasty.
I did not care for this.
Yuck. Had a sweetish processed flavor to it.
No one in my family liked this dish.

The infinitive verb is not a verb tense, however the continuous/progressive is a verb tense. I'm guessing there might be some argument among experts over whether the continuous infinitive would be classified as a single verb tense. Because "finding" is progressive, "to be finding" might also then qualify as a verb tense because it can't be any other way following a verb that requires an infinitive (like seem, appear, remember, etc.) However, I've seen some sources that suggest that a continuous infinitive is in fact two parts, not a unit. In this case, "to be" is the infinitive and therefore not a tense, but the progressive component "finding" is a verb tense.
I wouldn't necessarily be so nit-picky with something like this. Keep in mind that there are organizations like the Modern Language Association that decide what does and does not constitute proper grammar, punctuation, citations, etc. and they can and do change their minds from year to year.

Hi, my name is Stephanie and I blog over at Livin' the Dream. I am a stay-at-home Mommy to
a precious baby boy, and a wife of 5 years. I discovered my crafty side a few years back,
and would love to share my stories, crafts, and recipes with you.
Me and my precious boy! |
- A papercrafted letter, cardboard letter, or wooden letter
- 2 pieces of scrapbook paper
- Mod Podge
- Scissors/ X acto knife
- White paint
- Foam brushes
- Other various accessories for display
First of all, I painted the letter, so that any part not covered in paper would be white. I went ahead and painted the whole letter, just in case. I just bought some white acrylic paint and used a foam brush to put it on.
Then, I let each side dry. The good thing about this type of paint is that it dries quickly.
Next I traced each side of the "B" onto the scrapbook paper. Make sure you trace it onto the back of the paper, and that it is flipped the correct way so it's facing the right direction.
Trace both sides, and then cut it out. For the large sections I just used scissors.
Then for the inside of the "B", I used my handy-dandy (pink!) X-acto knife.
Lay the paper over your letter and trim off any excess.
Do the same with the opposite side.
You should have two pretty equally shaped scrapbook letters...Don't you just love the glittery one?!
Then take some of every crafter's best friend...Mod Podge...and put a light coating over the entire letter.
I didn't take a picture of this step, because you couldn't see it over the white paint. Just make sure it's a light coating, and lay your letter down and press firmly. Let it dry for maybe 15 minutes.
Then, just do the same to the other side.
Up close, you shouldn't be able to see any overhang on either side...
If you do, go ahead and run your x-acto knife around and slice those little over hangers off of there!
Then, make a little display out of your lovely, christmas-y letter.
This is on my bookshelf. I like how simple and clean it looks.
I also set it up on my console table, so that the whole letter is a little more visible. (Can you guess what my last name is between the letter, and the decor next to it?)
I also had to include a picture of the back, so you can see how fun and sparkly it is. Next time, I may have to use the glittery paper on the front. I may need to make one for every holiday. I'm crazy for monogrammed anything.
Also, I like the cleaner look of it, but go ahead and go crazy and embellish it if you so choose. There are all kinds of things you could add to make it a little more festive.
I'm pretty sure I may even have some ribbon trees that would go lovely with it.
Thank you so much for letting me share my craft with you. Feel free to come on over to Livin' the Dream and check out some more of my crafty posts. Like my Fall Throw Pillow from a Placemat</ a>
Or my Lil Ribbon Tree
I also post a lot of recipes and just stories of my experiences in being a new mom of a
baby with craniosynostosis. Come join me, I'd love to hear from you!
