By Nancy R. Elliott The Herald Bulletin
The Herald Bulletin
---- — ANDERSON — At first, you think they're dogs. Then you find out they're really hams. The Pet-A-Pal dogs love nothing better than getting all dressed up in costumes and taking center stage. Twice a month, from April through October, the dogs do just that as they visit area nursing homes and put on a narrated fashion show to the delight of residents.
Pet-A-Pal president Fran Tedrow narrates the show while six dogs strut their stuff, with 30 or more costumes.
"Each dog has anywhere from four to seven or eight costume changes," said Pet-A-Pal member Carol Rattler. Dogs wear costumes from Santa Claus to Mickey and Minnie Mouse to Colts and Pacers, bringing plenty of smiles to residents' faces.
"They all love the Wizard of Oz group," said Rattler. "The scarecrow is just adorable."
Another favorite is the Birthday Dog that sports a hat which sort of looks like a birthday cake and a dress with ruffles that says 'Happy Birthday.'
"We have a tremendous time," said Rattler. "We're changing the dogs' clothes every five or ten minutes."
"It's really cool. The dogs are just hilarious," said Liz Frank. Frank brings her two Labradors, Maggie and Oyate. She noted that both dogs happily wear their costumes."They love it." When Oyate dons his costume, Frank said, "He literally will prance."
"The dogs love it because they know everyone's going to pet them," said Tedrow.
One of the favorite parts of the show comes at the end, when the group honors service men and women, and those who serve as nurses, firefighters or police.
"One of our dogs does a good night prayer in her jammies," said Rattler. Labrador Maggie puts her paws up, and rests her head on her paws.
"Many of the residents remember the dogs from year to year. They look forward to it tremendously," said Rattler. She said residents even remember the names of the dogs, including her own golden retriever Sadie. Sadie was a regular until after Carol's husband passed away in September. Sadie died two months later, grieving her lost owner.
Tedrow calls the narrated fashion show the "Fun Bunch," but the Pet-A-Pal dogs have other jobs, too. Sometimes they'll spend a day visiting with folks at a nursing home. Other times, they visit day cares or elementary schools to teach pet safety.
Right now, the "Fun Bunch" includes a diverse group of dogs. Tedrow's dachshund/Jack Russell named Peanut and her terrier mix named Khristy are part of the crew. Frank brings her two 70-pound Labradors. There's also a chocolate poodle named Kitty, and a Bichon Frise called Dasher.
The group has had as many as 15 dogs, and they come in all shapes and sizes, from 4 pounds to 140.
"We've had as large as a Newfoundland – that is a very big dog – all the way down to Chihuahua. We go from one extreme to another," said Tedrow.
Dogs must be up-to-date on their shots. Tedrow evaluates the dogs to make sure they can handle the job. She noted that the hand dexterity of some of the residents may cause them to grab onto the dog's fur and not let go easily.
"We don't want the dogs to snap at them," said Tedrow. She said dogs must also be comfortable around all the appliances like wheelchairs and walkers. Another prerequisite is an owner who can be consistent about showing up for visits or shows.
Tedrow said that the late Jo Rehm founded Pet-A-Pal with her Akita, named Koz, more than two decades ago when Rehm's own mother was in a nursing home.
"She saw a need. People in nursing homes or assisted living — they need to have some sort of pet contact," said Tedrow. She has been involved in Pet-A-Pal for 17 years.
"We volunteer for this because we love doing it," said Tedrow. "We'd love to have some more people."
"We would love to have anybody interested get in touch and let us meet your dog," said Rattler. Give them a call at 621-5975.

'Mass Text' the new 'Friday'
If you were to mix Rebecca Black and the overly attached girlfriend, you would get Tay Allyn and her new song "Mass Text."
The song must have started as someone's idea of edgy and the next big thing, but the outcome was an overly auto-tuned disaster.
Allyn describes her sound as, "Ke$ha without the sex, and Gaga without the avant garde."
The video is set in a high school situation, but considering Allyn is 24-years-old, she looked more like a teacher than a student.
The video shows Allyn texting obsessively, playing with dolls, dancing with a dog and awkwardly staring into the camera. Oh, and what video wouldn't be complete without a Beyonce wannabe dance number?

Microsoft, Intel, Hewlett-Packard, Motorola, and more recently Panasonic and IBM -- the flood of technology-related layoffs and firings isn't slowing and, sadly, is likely to continue for some time. Given that reality, isn't it time that the IT community speaks with one voice and demands that the government suspend -- or at least greatly reduce and reshape -- the H-1B visa program for the duration of the economic emergency?
Don't blame the immigrants -- or cry racism
Before I go further, let me say that I do not -- and you should not -- blame the workers from India and other countries who seek those visas. Like us, they want good jobs and a better life for their families. So I oppose the vindictive proposal from Sen. Charles Grassley (R-Iowa) to lay off foreigners first.
This critical debate has been distorted in a number of ways. Some echo the arguments of the 19th-century Know Nothing Party, a thinly veiled campaign of racism. But others, such as Thomas Friedman, writing in the New York Times on Wednesday, and Vivek Wadhwa on BusinessWeek.com position the argument as innovation versus stagnation. End the visa program and Silicon Valley will become the new Detroit, they say. Well, that's a stretch. Innovation by Americans has not decreased, and there's no reason companies can't continue to tap the best brains throughout the world.
And others, many of whom are well-meaning, refuse to listen to those of us who think the H-1B program is abused and destructive. They claim that anyone who opposes the flood of foreign tech workers into Silicon Valley is, well, racist, nativist, and anti-immigrant. That's wrong and unfair -- and it sidetracks the legitimate debate.
H-1B: A solution in search of a problem
When H-1B first became law in the 1990s, the premise was simple and made sense: The growing technology industry couldn't find enough skilled workers to fill key jobs. In response to lobbying by the industry, Congress permitted companies to hire foreign workers under a new provision of immigration law that established fairly liberal quotas for skilled workers.
Fair enough -- but that's no longer the case. With thousands of highly skilled and experienced IT workers looking for jobs, it's hardly plausible to talk about a labor shortage. No doubt there are exceptions. But not 85,000, which is the total number of H-1B slots available both this year and last year.

Your Black News: White Vigilante Katrina Episode Finally Getting Traction
The way Donnell Herrington tells it, there was no warning. One second he was trudging through the heat. The next he was lying prostrate on the pavement, his life spilling out of a hole in his throat, his body racked with pain, his vision blurred and distorted.
It was September 1, 2005, some three days after Hurricane Katrina crashed into New Orleans, and somebody had just blasted Herrington, who is African-American, with a shotgun. "I just hit the ground. I didn't even know what happened," recalls Herrington, a burly 32-year-old with a soft drawl.
The sudden eruption of gunfire horrified Herrington's companions–his cousin Marcel Alexander, then 17, and friend Chris Collins, then 18, who are also black. "I looked at Donnell and he had this big old hole in his neck," Alexander recalls. "I tried to help him up, and they started shooting again." [...]
Herrington shouted at the other men to run and turned to face his attackers: three armed white males. Herrington says he hadn't even seen the men or their weapons before the shooting began. As Alexander and Collins fled, Herrington ran in the opposite direction, his hand pressed to the bleeding wound on his throat. Behind him, he says, the gunmen yelled, "Get him! Get that nigger!"
[FYI: This is by no means "news" to those who consistently payed close attention to Katrina's latest developments. For more info on this, pls. visit: http://www.cwsworkshop.org/katrinareader/node/573].

- AmazingEfreedgoVIPDined on 8/27/2014Vibrant, creative cuisine in a beautiful room. Service not quite up to food but very good .Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outside the Newport tourist trapmissyVIPDined on 8/24/2014We stayed in Newport but drove 10 minutes to this quaint seaside town to visit a friend. Jamestown Fish is on the quaint strip of restaurants and stores and was a real find! The head chefs were both trained in NY. And their up and coming chefs are right out if their local Johnson and Whales Culinary School! The food was fresh and delicious - even the I cream was made in house! Organic and delicious! You must go! Make a reservation if you don't want to wait at the "bar with a view of the harbor"Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2008Dined on 8/24/2014Lovely, warm, modern decor and comfortable ambiance in the dining room. Service was good and so was the menu selection. but unfortunately, in our opinion (party of 6), the food was mediocre. Very bland seasoning. Cold shrimp served bare - no sauce or seasoning. Avocado served unripened, house special seafood pot, which should have been spicy and full of flavor, was not, stewed eggplant appetizer had way too much vinegar. Nobody raved about anything (although nobody said anything was terrible). Just a mediocre meal in a lovely restaurant that, at those prices, should have been much more taste full and interesting. By the way, lunch on the terrace two days before was, in contrast, very good indeed.
- HokeyMuncho1VIPDined on 8/23/2014I must say at first, that the food was quite excellent, which made up for the subpar service we received. Tables around us received their food before we did, even thought we were seated first. Prices I thought, were a tad high compared to places in RI we have been, which I would consider four to five star. A scallop dish is generally priced in the high twenty dollar range. Jamestown Fish was in the low thirties. Maybe in works for the tourists, but in the winter you gotta keep that register ringing, and I won't be making the ride there from Cumberland, when restaurants in Providence are closer and cheaper., for the same quality. And owners, put something over the AC vents in the floors other than tin pans. That's HOKEY. Try duct tape.Special Features:
- butjames60OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/16/2014Great experience with wonderful food using local ingredients. Outside space was nice but the inside of the restaurant is where the chef does his magic. This is the most for those who appreciate fine dining.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great PlaceWearytravellerDined on 8/16/2014Vibrant place ( but not too loud) with great food and atmosphere. Fresh takes on local seafood and produce including creative vegan optionsSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Creative and deliciousMariVIPDined on 8/16/2014Visited restaurant for anniversary celebration dinner, food was delicious and creatively presented, atmosphere is comfortable and staff was attentive and helpful, can't wait to visit again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- a downsideluvthfoodDined on 8/14/2014Excellent flavors , great creativity, cooked to order, fresh selections, octopus was superb. Home made desserts , exotic sorbet flavors. With all that said, a bit pricey based on portion sizeSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Excellent and accomodatingrudster123Dined on 8/14/2014All of the seafood was awesome. Best swordfish I've had all summer. As I didn't want any carbs, the chef prepared a bed of sauteed spinach that was perfection!!Special Features:
- WHAT A FIND♣SpoonfulDined on 8/14/2014Recent dinner choices included a refreshing summer soup, succulent octopus, flavorful mako, a unique and generous seafood cookpot and homemade basil ice cream. A unique restaurant where basic seafood is paired with fresh ingredients yielding extraordinary flavor. Each table is visited by the chef. My booking noted that we were requesting quieter seating as we were celebrating our 25th wedding anniversary. We were concerned about the critical comments on noise levels. The restaurant was nearly full, but it was not loud. Upon arrival, the hostess, and server, Alissa, acknowledged our occasion, and we received complimentary delicacies. Parking is a challenge as there is no parking lot or valet. Polite service. Commensurate pricing.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2004VIPDined on 8/9/2014Love the food! Beautiful inside and outside. BUT, too noisy inside! Will never eat indoors again ~Special Features:
- Foodgasm on the waterPVSBVIPDined on 8/6/2014If you want the very best seafood experience, Jamestown FiSH is the place to go. The Cookpot of seafood will deliver you to nirvana! Service was a little spotty, but we came for the incredible food. If the weather permits, get seated outside. The restaurant is 1/2 block from the bay!Special Features:
- Super food, impossibly noisySisterDined on 8/6/2014Terrific food, service on the slow side. Very noisy, couldn't hear the wait staff and impossible to carry on a conversation.Special Features:
- Great dinnerLizzyDined on 8/2/2014We were party of 4 and everyone was happy with their dinner choices. For desert we chose ice cream and there was plenty to share - also very good, especially caramel/saltSpecial Features:
- Excellent!nickysticksDined on 8/2/2014This was my second time there in a week. First time was a Tuesday evening, on the outside patio with my business partner. Second time was Saturday night with my girlfriend in the dining room. On both occasions the food was phenomenal, the service excellent, and the chef came out to ask if we were happy with the meal. My only minor complaint is that it was a little loud in the dining room (from the tables full of other customers) and sometimes difficult to hear my girlfriend or the wait staff. Definitely recommend and will return.Special Features:
- A gem in Jamestown ....OpenTable Diner Since 2007VIPDined on 7/30/2014Every so often you find a place that immediately speaks to you. Jamestown FiSH is one of those spots. Passion and attention to detail are the operative words. Chef Matthew MacCartney and his team are killing it, with a menu that channels Rhode Island seafood traditions accented by French and Italian influences. The carefully curated wine list includes some amazing finds at more-than-fair prices. Many similarly pedigreed chefs (MacCartney has stints at Daniel, Craft, Gramercy Tavern, stages in France and Italy) fail to deliver the goods. But Matteo - as staff and friends call him - has the chops to back up the resume. Pristine seafood, housemade pasta and a killer veal chop are a few of your options. So good we went 2 nights consecutively ..Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- A visit from the ChefJohnPDined on 7/26/2014It's always great to be pleasantly surprised when you try a resturant for the first time. FISH met every expectation we had; great atmosphere, ambiance, a great menu and fantastic tasting food. A visit from the chef with an explanation of our menu choices topped it off!!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- OpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 7/25/2014We had a fabulous meal. What a find! A wonderful alternative to the insane dining scene in downtown Newport. Well worth the trip across the bridge to Jamestown, which has it's own cool vibe. Food was spectacular. Space was hip, understated and just right. Loved it.Special Features:
- GammeeDined on 7/25/2014The food and the service lived up to the reputation, both were very good. We all had delicious meals and we enjoyed the extensive wine list. We enjoyed a cocktail in the side terrace. The initial impression on entering the restaurant was a bit off putting; at the hostess stand there was an bothersome unpleasant smell (seemingly cleaning product) and the first thing we saw were the bathroom doors was off putting. The dining room lacks warmth and the noise level was too high. That said, we will be back for the food and wine, but hope to see a change in the atmosphere when we get there.Special Features:
- Fish exceeded our expectationsLadyLCGDined on 7/25/2014I held off trying Fish when it first opened but finally got a chance to dine there while visiting Newport again this month. Although the restaurant was excessively noisy, our party of three enjoyed ourselves. The food was really good. I had the smoked salmon & avocado to start and the halibut for my main meal which was served on top of a bed of spinach and then a layer of pureed cauliflower. One of the better meals I've had in the Newport area. Tip of the hat to the employees too from the young woman who seated us to the female server and two bussers. Outstanding and I look forward to going back.Special Features:
- euromarineVIPDined on 7/19/2014This restaurant is at par with the very best located at the-other-side-of-the-bridge! Nice touch is that chef Matt personally comes by your table to make sure you are happy.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Outstanding Food & Service!BodybuildinAndSnobbyLivinVIPDined on 7/19/2014Andy was an amazing hostess who helped my girlfriend and I to find open seats at one of the restaurant's 3 bars. She was so genuinely nice and helpful to the two of us the entire evening. The bartender in the main dining room was very personable and our waitress was extremely professional and attentive to our needs. In addition to the delicious food, the fact that the head chef took time out to help us with our wine selection as well as check on our dining experience following our meal scored major points with us. We will be dining here again for fresh perfectly plancha seared seafood in the near future!Special Features:
- Nice placeRalphDined on 7/18/2014It was a nice place good wine selection. The good was good bit not memorable. Very noisy in the dinning room.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Incredible FoodExpertDinerDined on 7/17/2014The food was the best I had during my 5 day stay in the area. The scallops with a cauliflower saffron sauce was amazing. Almost everything was excellent. One exception was the octopus salad appetizer. The octopus was a little dry (overcooked?). The waitress could not have been any better, although the time between appetizer and entree seemed a little long, as the indoor restaurant was not crowded, but was perhaps due to a crowded patio area. However, the patio area is non-reservation and has a different menu, so perhaps the indoor dining room should receive more attention? The different menus for outside and inside dining areas did create confusion for more than one group. Overall, a great experience.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Super place.OpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 7/16/2014We ate in the dining room. How beautifully presented, the colors so fitting for an ocean view restaurant. The food was beautifully presented and prepared...and tasted great! We were a table of three. Had drinks, salads, pasta with lobster and crab, and fresh tuna. Loved the whole meal.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Bring a fly swatter!WelikeDandDVIPDined on 7/13/2014Our second visit to a promising venue was most disappointing. Special of the night was Dover sole but served bone in. I couldnt believe it, I asked if they would de-bone it and waitress, with a bit of an attitude said it would take longer if they did that, I said we could wait. I live in NYC and most places there take pride in presenting a nicely filleted Dover sole w/o bones. The fish was good but had at least 20 bones left in it, not a way to savour a nice fillet. Also, we were one of 3 occupied tables in the place while the outdoor patio was humming. We were inside and were swatting at flies around the table all night. Decent menu and food quality but service was poor. Wont go back for awhile.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- wonderful eveningKarlFDined on 7/11/2014Jamestown Fish provided a great dinning experiance The quality and tast was off the hook! Cheif Matt and his team are trully talentedSpecial Features:
- ANOTHER LOVELY MEALJoJoDined on 7/6/2014This is probably our fifth or sixth time to JAMESTOWN FISH. As always, we are greeted by Chef Matthew as we come in. My dinner companion ordered the tuna, which was lightly seared and still red inside. It was delicious. I was not so hungry and so ordered the octopus appetizer only. The dish was a little one-note for me. I avoided the red pepper on the plate, and perhaps it was missing the olives and capers that were described on the menu because I only tasted a hint of lemon. The octopus was VERY tender, though. The service is always very good, although my plate sat empty in front of me for about 20 minutes before the waitstaff came and cleared it away. The wine list is very good also.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- W O N D E R F U L!LDR9608VIPDined on 7/4/2014We made a reservation at Jamestown Fish for the 4th of July knowing that the weather was going to be less than cooperative. We started out having a drink in the upstairs bar. Great selection of Bourbon and Scotch as well as a very nice array of mixed specialties. Dinner was fantastic with a lot of great choices. If you can't decide, go with the cookpot...it's got a little of everything. Save some room for dessert...and don't worry if you bought a bottle of wine, they will cork it up, put it in a bag, and you can take it with you. It's a short walk to the marina if you need to stretch your legs after dinner.Special Features:
- Excellent experienceJabirdDined on 6/21/2014Great food, great wine, great company. All the dishes were extremely fresh and showed nice creativity, the sitting was beautiful and super friendly environmentSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Qualified Ratings-Noise Alert!OpenTable Diner Since 2006VIPDined on 6/21/2014Thru Open Table had requested outdoor dining only to be seated in a deafening dining room so loud that we asked to be moved outside. The very helpful hostess explained reservations only applied to the dining room and that there would be a 30 minute wait for an outside table. On the verge of leaving, she came up with a great table on a small deck adjoining the bar and everything was great from thereon (food, service, ambience). However, on weekends at least, I will not chance the very loud dining room again as the food is too good and the prices are too high to allow an evening to be compromised by such high decibels.I would recommend this to a friend.
- Splendid Evening at Jamestown FishJames0806Dined on 6/21/2014We met friends whom we hadn't seen in many years for dinner Saturday evening. Everything about the experience was wonderful; the food, the service and the ambience. We ate inside, and were not rushed at all. In fact, we spent three hours at the table enjoying our meal and company. We always enjoy our experience at Jamestown Fish and look forward to returning again soon.Special Features:
- A lovely dining experienceDebHubbDined on 6/20/2014Jamestown Fish has a lovely dining room on the first floor which is very fresh with the white trim and nautical blue walls. Our dining experience was lovely with appetizers of octopus, crab, egg plant and home made mozzarella with roasted peppers. Our dinners were also delightful with their specialty fish crock pot and dover sole. Everything was lovely and it was our second time there. However I will share the prices in the dining room are on the higher side with dinners averaging $40 and appetizers $15. Another nice touch was the Chef coming out to visit each table.Special Features:
- Great dining experience!euromarineVIPDined on 6/15/2014One of the best restaurants in the area. If you are visiting Newport then it is well worth "crossing the bridge" to this dining experience!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- superbCLNYVIPDined on 6/14/2014Always a great dining experience. a never miss restaurant. this visit, as i made my reservations on open table, i requested dover sole on the bone. this is not on the regular menu, only sometimes a special. When i arrived, the chef told me that he had aquired the sole. Needless to say, it was cooked to perfection. can't wait to returnSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Just ok.MRBOBDined on 6/7/2014We sat inside. Arrived at 6:15 for 6:45 res. but had to wait the half hour at the bar even though there were 3 empty tables inside. One finally filled 1.5 hours later. Table service was very good, kitchen production was very slow. Seemed as though they concentrated on the outdoor tables.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Food fine, Service needs workJerandnancDined on 6/6/2014My wife and I visited on a Friday evening. My lobster roll was ok though not substantial; the waitress indicated a much larger serving. My wife had scallops which were really good. Service was slow even though there were only 3 tables plus ours being used. The waitress needed to be reminded twice to bring some basics to our table. No bread was served until we asked into the meal. Bartender and chef both visited our table which was a nice touch. Expensive for lobster roll, good deal on the scallops.
- ExcellenceLouInPortsmouthVIPDined on 5/31/2014Party of four and every meal was outstanding - appetizer to desert.Special Features:
- Great Exerience.CharlotteDined on 5/31/2014Everything in this restaurant is done with class including table setting and staff. Food is wonderful, service top rate and is my new favorite restaurant. The chief is very talented. We spent more money than normal because we could not resist so many items on the menu, including homemade ice cream, which is to die for. Certainly worth the experience.Special Features:
- Wonderful place to eat and drinkhplmVIPDined on 5/21/2014Fish in Jamestown RI is a First class restaurant which would not be out of place in Mid Town Manhattan or Downtown San Francisco Innovative preparations of fresh fish and meats. You can't go wrong, no matter what you pick on the menu.Special Features:

Margherita Missoni
Missoni was born into fashion: She is the heiress to a family design empire founded by her grandparents in 1953. "I grew up in the countryside, and the only thing I had there was our clothing factory: clothing, flea markets, pieces of fabric, models, people sketching and designing—that's all I saw. It's been my life, my mother's life, my father's life in different ways—he produces shows. For me, my family, fashion, Missoni as a brand and the place where I grew up in the countryside were all one thing."[2]
As muse to her designer mother, Angela Missoni, Margherita gained fame when she began to appear in the company's ad campaigns in 2006. Although she has a global presence—acting off-off-Broadway in a production of Jean Genet's The Maids, appearing on the cover of the London magazine Jalouse—she is defined by, and embraces, her roots in Italy. "I love the city," she said in 2012, "but if you're always bombarded with stimulation, you get numb to it. I need to get bored to create."[3]Margherita took on a new role as Missoni's accessories director in 2010, and then turned her eye to the label's successful beachwear line. Today, she is poised to eventually succeed her grandmother and mother as creative director. "We have different styles," she told The Telegraph. "I wouldn't make the same clothes that my mum made, or my grandma, but we have the same taste."[4]

Jen I forgot to praise your landscape. It looks like a flock of ducks lost from Stuttgart are about to land. Love the morning sky it looks cold yet inviting. Nice work.
C and C always welcomed
Jen, this is a terrific self portrait sketch! I think you captured your smile perfectly and I love the pose!
Comments and critiques are welcome.
Mr. Grumpy pants thanks you for the rain because you didn't send the freezing temps to go with it. A lot of the snow is now gone and the roads are only bad where the sun doesn't shine on it. Now if I can only find the time ;)
Jen, love your self portrait. I agree with Nealey it is a great pose. You look so relaxed and content having your tea. Maybe Jinx will grow out of this interest in art interference. I think he's still young enough.
Bonnie C & C most welcome / appreciated
Jen, it's grand that you can be so loose and spontaneous with a portrait drawing - self-portrait drawing to boot. Your spontaneity is very evident and it makes for a natural looking portrait which happens to look just like you. The big grin is charming. Congratulations on a well done work of art.
Sam/Sammy C & C Welcome
Visit my blog at www.artbysamh.blogspot.com
Jen C & C's always welcome
Fred...The prank on the NASA scientists is so funny! The laughing bear is so expressive! I also like the interesting textures you have in the Planet X painting.
Sarah...I love the red poppy and the area around the center reminds me of stained glass. Very pretty!
Jen...Your landscape painting is beautiful! I really like the reflections in the water. I also like the self portrait and how well you've done your shading.
Catherine Brown
C&C's are welcome.
(No digital alterations please)
Geri, I really appreciate you lovely comments on my pen & ink poinsettia. Thank you.
I don't know where to start, but first of all I want to
Thank, Sarah, Karen, Jen, Bonnie and Sam for their lovely cards. I 'm enjoying
every single one a lot, since nobody else seems to send Christmas cards by mail
anymore, Just quick e-mails is common practice. And even before, I have never
had so many beautiful art cards on display. I will try to post pictures of your
cards on display later.
I know there're a couple more cards in the mail and I'm
looking forward to receiving them. Thank you for paying the extra shipping to
Sorry I missed so many of your paintings.
Just went back a couple pages and..
Sarah, your poppy center is beautiful; you always
choose lovely details for your paintings.
Jen your landscape is very well done, beautiful sky
and reflection in the water. Your self-portrait is super.
Fred, always love the stories and the choice of colors
in your paintings
At the moment I'm dealing with serious computer
problems. Somebody hacked my E-Mail account and send out mails to people with final
written warnings with a bill of 3000.-€. I closed my internet access completely
and changed all the passwords, Called the police and, and, and. So much time
wasted. A whole week of telephone rotary's and changing things. Time that could
went to a lot better cause.
And.. found the pictures:
C&C always welcome
Jen, you should crop your SP square and use it as your profile picture. It really is good!!
Claudia, sorry about your hacking problems. but what would we do without computers? I would never have met all you fine and friendly folks without this modern marvel! Thanks for sharing your pics - that's a good idea. I think I shall photograph all the beautiful cards I have received and post. First I have to clean & decorate my hutch.
Claudia. what a lovely display of your cards. It looks very decorative and Christmasy.
I'm back still in pain but 99% better I don't remember being in so much pain before. I have sinus infection that inflamed the nerves roots in my back teeth. Before I knew this I when to the dentist twice to be told I had TMD which I do but the dentist ground my back teeth on both side down to help relief me from pain and to hlep with my bite that he said was off. The pain was so bad at times I didn't even want to brush my teeth. The pain now is at a level I can stand I try to not bite down on the back teeth, and with the help of pills things are gettng better.
I have mailed all my Christmas cards and still hoping you all receive them before Christmas (maybe wishful thinking on my part).
We have a lot of snow and I thought we would be snowed in but the plows were here within 24 hours, each day we are getting a little more but we should get rain on Friday so some will melt away.
Everyone here has shown wonderful paintings this month even with being so busy with the up coming holidays. Joyce
All C & C's always welcome
Joyce, I'm so sorry that you have been in so much pain but am glad that it is getting better. Please get better quickly.
Hi Geri (AKA Mr. Grumpypants), I loved receiving your card and have no complaints about the product. It sounds neat that you painted ornaments and baked bread for your Wednesday Painting Group! Warmest wishes for wonderful holiday get-togethers.
Fred, the ceiling of the cavern in your Alpha-Bet underground is wonderfully done. The nascent stalactites that seem to be emerging from it look just like those in a real cave.
Jen, this water scene in pastels is one of my favorite pieces you've done. It is just beautiful and would make a wonderful notecard. I love the colors, the focus/out-of-focus, the reflections, and the wild grasses in the foreground.
Jen, your self-portrait is great - so immediate and spontaneous - and I can just feel your satisfaction with that cup of coffee or tea and the snuggyness of your bathrobe or top.
Claudia, your Christmas display is wonderful. My mantle is now filled with cards too and there are so many from all of you that they overlap. So cheerful and touching and personal.
Joyce Lydia, please take care of yourself. I spent about a year during my career working from home because I was in terrible pain (fortunately it's completely gone now) and know how debilitating it can be. People thought I was suddenly agoraphobic but it was just too painful to move about, so you have my complete sympathy.
Comments and critiques are welcomed and appreciated.
I love, love, love the wonderful cards I have recieved. Thank you to all of you. It brightens my day everytime I look at them.
C&Cs always welcome

Blog Privacy v. Blogs List
Hey, does anybody know if this is a bug or if it supposed to work this way?
On a user's blog, if one sets the privacy at the second option (no search engines), the blog isn't listed under "blogs" on the main install. (Edited to add: listed for logged-in users, not necessarily the public.)
I personally feel it should be listed in the community blogs, whether or not search engines are invited to see it.
What do you think? Bug or on purpose?

Worcester city centre branch of Ladbrokes bookmakers robbed by two men
2:18pm Wednesday 15th January 2014 in News By Neil Watts
TWO men burst into a betting shop and stole cash from the till yesterday.
The incident happened at Ladbrokes in St Martin's Quarter, Worcester, after the men entered the city centre branch at about 7.15pm.
The first man approached the counter with his hands in his pockets and told the cashier to hand over the cash while the other man stood in the doorway to prevent it from being locked.
Worried he was concealing a weapon, the cashier handed over the cash she had in her till.
One of the customers in the store attempted to leave and was told by the first man to sit down and he was threatened with violence.
Once the cash had been handed over, both men made off on foot in the direction of St Paul's Street.
Both men are described as being Asian or possibly white, in their late teens or early 20s, between 5ft 8ins and 6ft tall, of slim to medium build and both had their faces covered.
The offence is being investigated by Detective Constable Wayne Cashion at Worcester CID, who said: "Robberies of this nature are rare in Worcester and as such we are treating it very seriously.
"While no one was hurt, the cashier and the customers present were shaken up by the offence and it is unacceptable that people have been targeted by criminals in their workplace.
"We would like to hear from anyone who recognises the description of the two men or who were in the St Martin's Quarter or St Paul's Street areas and saw something suspicious."
The first man was wearing a black hooded puffer jacket, blue tracksuit bottoms with white stripes down the side and trainers.
He was also wearing a mask that covered the lower half of his face, possibly a cyclist's pollution mask.
The second man was wearing a black hooded top and a scarf over his face, possibly with a Burberry pattern.
Anyone with information should call the police, quoting incident number 552s 14/01/14, on the non-emergency number 101.

Presented to King George V, 1917
This is probably Hurley's best-known photograph, which he took with flashlights at -38 °F/-39 °C. It was later used on the front cover of Shackleton's account of the expedition, South. Hurley described the scene in his autobiography:Never did the ship look quite so beautiful as when the bright moonlight etched her in inky silhouette, or transformed her into a vessel from fairy-land.

Construction on Interstate 75 near Mitchell Avenue began in 2011, but as the construction continues and lanes are shifted to complete parts of the project, officials are seeing the number of accidents in the area on the rise.
From August 1st to present day, the St. Bernard Police Department has responded to 70 accidents on the stretch of I-75 south where one lane splits off.
In that same seven month period of time the year before, the department only responded to 20 accidents.
"So people are just panicking," said Lt. Michael Simos, St. Bernard Police Department. "There's plenty of signage, plenty of lights, so inexplicably, people just can't seem to handle that."
Despite warning signs that one lane splits off, accident after accident continues to clog up one of Cincinnati's main arteries into downtown.
"Several have been serious accidents up there, but no fatals, thank the Lord," Lt. Simos added.
There have been so many accidents, the Ohio Department of Transportation has had to replace the barrier just before the split multiple times.
"Upwards of 10," Lt. Simos estimated. "And those are like $15,000 a pop."
Drivers across the Tri-State are familiar with the infamous split.
"That split is really disconcerting," said Marilyn Hyland, a Cincinnati resident. "And with the Hopple Street construction starting, it's backing up more and more and it's so bad you almost choose to avoid the stretch of 75 all together."
Lt. Simos and many drivers agreed that additional warning may help alleviate the issues.
"I think that it happens really quickly and people are bombing along," Hyland explained. "I think there needs to be more advanced warning, flashing lights, or things to say this is a big deal here, and it's dangerous if you don't slow down."
Lt. Simos said that while the front barrier takes on a lot of those accidents, the St. Bernard Police Department responds to incidents through the entire stretch of construction.
The Mitchell Avenue interchange is scheduled to be completed by September of 2014.

|GIRL SCOUTS OF MAINE: (888) 922-4763Home | Search | Calendar | GSUSA
Girl Scouts of Maine announces that they are the recipients of two, one-year grants totaling $16,000 from the United Way of York County.
The grants will enable Girl Scouts of Maine to provide leadership experiences for girls that help them discover their personal best, connect with others, and take action to solve problems and improve their communities.
A $12,000 grant supports A Place for Girls, a Biddeford-based Girl Scouts of Maine program that builds confidence and self-esteem in girls and helps them avoid risky behaviors such as drugs, smoking, and alcohol.
The council also received a $4,000 grant that provides camperships to girls in York County. Through the Girl Scouts of Maine summer camp experience, girls learn about nature and the environment while participating in activities that build character and skills for success in the real world.
Thanks to the continued support of many dedicated individuals, businesses, and organizations throughout York County, this year, the United Way is investing in 78 community programs serving children, youth, adults and families.
"Despite economic uncertainty in 2011, local people gave very generously to our United Way community campaign," said United Way of York County President and CEO, Kathryn Davis. "As a result, in 2012, we are able to provide much needed support for essential human services across the region."

Sinclair Community College has partnered with the Disney College Program for over 20 years, sending its 500th participant to work as a PhotoPass Photographer in the Magic Kingdom at the Walt Disney World® Resort in Orlando, Florida in spring of 2013.
Disney has rightfully earned its world-renowned reputation for providing quality customer service to its guests, which is why an internship at Disney can be a valuable experience for any student regardless of major or career intention. The Disney College Program offers students an opportunity to build the self-confidence, soft skills and leadership qualities that are highly sought after by employers in every industry.
The Disney College Program offers internships in fall (August - December) and spring (January - June). To apply to become a Disney Cast Member students must:
Visit www.disneycollegeprogram.com to complete an online application
Take the online personality assessment
Complete a telephone interview
Please note that the application is not available year-round. The application period for fall begins in early February, and the application period for spring begins in early September.
If an offer is extended the student may choose to accept or deny. If accepted, the student is responsible for following up with Disney to fill out the necessary forms, make housing arrangements, etc. All of these steps are completed through a website that Disney provides to students who are accepted into the program.
