O's designate Sarfate, invite six to camp
Team makes room for Tejada, rounds out spring roster
BALTIMORE -- The Orioles announced Wednesday that Dennis Sarfate has been designated for assignment, making room for recent acquisition Miguel Tejada on the 40-man roster. Baltimore also announced that it has invited six more non-roster players to big league Spring Training camp in Sarasota, Fla., rounding out the crew it will see during the Grapefruit League schedule.
Among that group were catchers Luis Bernardo and Adam Donachie, infielders Miguel Abreu and Blake Davis, outfielder Matt Angle and utility man Jonathan Tucker. Five of those six players have spent their entire career in Baltimore's organization, and Donachie, the exception, was chosen by Baltimore in the 2007 Rule 5 Draft and signed as a free agent last winter.
Sarfate, who spent most of last season on the disabled list with a circulatory problem, is eligible to be claimed off waivers by the other teams in the league. If he isn't claimed, the Orioles can move him off the roster and assign him to Triple-A Norfolk. Sarfate was originally acquired in the deal that sent Tejada to Houston, making the most recent move a little more interesting.
Donachie and Bernardo were brought in to help ease the catching responsibilities in camp for starter Matt Wieters and potential backups Chad Moeller, Craig Tatum and Michel Hernandez. Bernardo batted .213 for Class A Delmarva last season, while Donachie batted .215 with five home runs and 33 RBIs for Double-A Bowie.
Abreu, a 28th-round selection in the 2005 First-Year Player Draft, was an Eastern League All-Star last season and led Bowie in hits (142) and doubles (31). Davis turned heads in Spring Training last year, but started the season late after injuring his ankle late in camp. The shortstop went on to hit .211 for Triple-A Norfolk, but the Orioles like his glove more than his bat.
Angle, a seventh-round Draft pick in 2007, was named to the Carolina League All-Star team after batting .289 for Class A Frederick. His 40 stolen bases led Baltimore's organization.
Tucker was named an All-Star after playing in 120 games for Bowie last season. The 26-year-old stole 31 bases, which led his team and ranked fifth in the Eastern League.

Reviews for Quick Italian Spaghetti
Sort By :
I made the sauce and it was okay. Very basic and a bit unusual but I was missing my garlic. So then I went and changed it all together. I added fresh basil, fresh tarragon, garlic, and a little bit of red wine vinegar.
Very good and a bit different than the usual tomato sauces... I made this a while back and am looking forward to making it again tonight along with a recipe for linguine with spicy garlic oil that I found in another magazine...
Very good!
I wanted to try a spaghetti sauce that was a bit different. I ran across this one that sounded good. Well, it was more than good; the black olives did the trick, I think. My husband says to make it again the next time we have spaghetti.

ANDERSON — First-year coach Landon Carroll notched his first career victory on Tuesday night as the Elwood Panthers defeated Anderson Prep Academy 69-44.
Jared Bourff led the Panthers with 20 points, 14 rebounds, two assists and four steals, hitting 7-of-19 field goals, including three 3-pointers.
"He is a physical player and we can throw it inside to him on the blocks and he can shoot it as well," said Carroll of his 6-foot-3 senior post player. "He's that inside-outside guy for us and he played well for us and his leadership went to a new level."
Anderson Prep coach Corey Scott also had high praise for Bourff. "We knew he was good and he hit a few shots and then we lost him."
Tracey Ganow gave Bourff plenty of support inside, finishing with 18 points and four rebounds off the bench on 8-of-12 shooting. London Leavell was also in double figures with 14 points, seven rebounds, five assists and two steals.
Dakin Updegraff added seven points, six rebounds, two assists, two steals and Jordan Arehart chipped in with four points, four rebounds, three assists and three steals.
"The energy was much better for us tonight," said Carroll. "For two and a half weeks we didn't have a good deal of energy in practice."
Anderson Prep was led by Noah Long with 23 points and four rebounds on 8-of-13 field goals, including three 3-pointers. Jonathon Barclay was also in double figures with 11 points, five assist and three steals. No other player had more than four points for the Jets.
"I thought we played okay in the first half and we did some things well," said Scott, whose team trailed just 31-24 at the half. "The second half, when we executed the offense things went well."
The third quarter was where the Jets crashed and burned. Elwood outscored Anderson Prep 20-7 in the period and forced four turnovers, which led to seven points. They also outscored the Jets 14-2 in the paint.
"We didn't execute in the third quarter and that was our biggest downfall," said Scott. "When we executed for Noah that really opened things up. We didn't get him off enough screens. We have to execute and do the things we work on in practice."
Anderson Prep (0-3) travels to Sheridan on Friday at 7:30 p.m., and Elwood (1-1) travels to Daleville on Saturday at 7:30 p.m.

Air Force identifies missing F-16 pilot
WASHINGTON (AP) - The U.S. Air Force has identified the pilot of an F-16 fighter jet that went missing Monday on a training mission over the Adriatic Sea.
It said he is Capt. Lucas Gruenther of the 31st Fighter Wing, based at Aviano Air Base in Italy.
The Air Force said Italian rescue teams recovered debris from the Adriatic that is believed to belong to Gruenther's F-16, but he remains missing.
The search is continuing.
Spokesman Master Sgt. Michael O'Connor at the 31st Fighter Wing declined to release Gruenther's age and hometown. The Modesto (Calif.) Bee newspaper has reported Gruenther is from Twain Harte, Calif.

Gloucester Daily Times
---- — Leaders of Gloucester Fishing Community Preservation Fund may have thought that commissioning an internal "investigation" by former state Attorney General L. Scott Harshbarger would be seen as a clearing, independent probe into what had been a growing number of questions alleging "conflicts of interest" in the handling of permits and funding.
And clearing the group's name is important, given that a handful of fishermen have raised questions centering on one of its principals, Vito Giacalone, who has vested interests in the related Northeast Seafood Coalition, in his own commercial fishing, and the operation of a new auction on his waterfront property.
But it was clear from the start that the Preservation Fund, which paid for Harshbarger's services, essentially had the probe and the report right under its own thumb. And instead of answering questions, the report itself — released through selected public presentations last week, yet still protected under attorney-client privilege, as its own pages note — has unfortunately raised new ones.
Given that, it would be best for all at this point if the Fund submitted Harshbarger's findings and report to the current attorney generals' office of Martha Coakley to seek a fresh pair of eyes not under the control of the very program that's being "investigated." And while the AG's office doesn't always offer advisory opinions for private, nonprofit groups like the Fund and the Seafood Coalition, it should recognize that perceived conflicts of interest — questions Harshbarger conceded were "legitimate" — dealing with commercial fishing permits is indeed a public issue and deserves both scrutiny and accountability.
At its core, the message of the Harshbarger report is legitimate, too. The Preservation Fund has indeed done a lot for Gloucester and Cape Ann fishermen, and Giacalone was, to his credit, among the first to recognize the need to work with NOAA officials and develop cooperatiges, or "sectors," to deal with what has proved to be a job-killing catch share system.
Yet, in addressing some of the specific concerns raised by fishermen, Harshbarger first notes that he found no evidence that Giacalone had offered to help fishermen who shifted their landings from the then-Gloucester Seafood Display Auction over to the Buyers And Sellers Exchange (BASE) auction run by Giacalone's sons for New Bedford BASE operators Richie and Raymond Canastra on property Giacalone owns. Yet, in a footnote, Harshbarger confirms that the Canastras offered a fishermen a $100,000 loan with the jnderstanding he would do precisely that — a case that the ex-AG admits was "a close call" toward confirming the allegation.
And while the Harshbarger report issues a troubling finding claiming that the allegations of conflicts were essentially generated by "a small number of individuals who have knowingly spread incorrect and inaccurate information about the Fund," prominent Gloucester fishing attorney Paul Muniz, cited as one of the Fund's chief questioners, says he has since spoken to Harshbarger, and the ex-AG agreed to conduct "a further review."
On one page, the report cites a disbarred lawyer and a fisherman whose sector benefitted from Giacalone's quota distribution as character references; on another, it depicts a key letter from lawmakers Ann-Margaret Ferrante and Bruce Tarr as a piece simply meant to "cover" themselves — charges they adamantly disputed last week. And so it goes.
But in the end, one thing is clear: Harsbarger's supposedly independent report instead comes across as finding, or trying to find, exactly what the hiring party would want to be found.
That's not good enough, and it shouldn't be good enough for our lawmakers or the Attorney General's office, either. Here's hoping they take on the Harshbarger findings and full, 48-page report for further review.

2006 Ford Escape Hybrid Overview
Overall User Score
Based on 7 reviews
The 2006 Ford Escape Hybrid represents a real innovation in the hybrid-vehicle field. Based on the sporty Escape SUV, the hybrid version is powered by gasoline and an electric battery and boasts an EPA estimate of 34 miles per gallon in city driving. Although the '06 Escape Hybrid doesn't get the mileage of smaller gas/electric vehicles like the Toyota Prius or Honda Insight, it does offer the advantage of combining a roomy, comfortable sport utility vehicle with hybrid technology.
And the 2006 Escape Hybrid is a lot of fun considered on its own merits as an SUV. Drivers praise the Escape's nimble handling and cargo capacity; reviewers say its hybrid drivetrain performs just as well as the mainstream Escape's inline-4 gasoline engine.
The only downside is price: You'll pay a premium for the new technology on the '06 Ford Escape Hybrid. But with tax incentives and savings at the pump, you may wind up coming out ahead over the life of the vehicle. So far, hybrids have held their value well on the used-vehicle market.

Hi all,
On Saturday I purchased a 1958 Lo Boy and a 1951 standard Farmall Cub tractors. These were in a far away land (SeaTac, WA) and he listed the Lo Boy as in running condition. Well, when he called to deliver, he said he couldn't get it started, but only that day he could deliver. Yes, my wife keeps me away from bridges in Brooklyn. He said it seems to be flooding. He also said he swapped the engine from the 51 HiBoy to the 58 LoBoy, but he said run fine in September.
It turns over, has spark, but gas pours out of the drain in the bottom of the throttle body portion of the carb. I have had it apart 7 times (lucky 7??), have soaked the carb, cleaned all ports and passages, installed new needle and seat, new bowl and manifold gasket, adjusted float to 1.4 /1.6 inches. The needle seats when tested, float does not leak and moves freely after assembly. NOW WHAT??? Only marks on the carb is the IH symbol.
HELP!!! Thanks!!!

Mississippi Burning
Duration :
Summary: The 1964 disappearances of three civil-rights activists in Mississippi are investigated by FBI agents Gene Hackman and Willem Dafoe in this gripping drama based on a true story. When three young men working for voter rights go missing, the FBI puts Southern-born Rupert Anderson (Hackman) and young Alan Ward (Dafoe) on the case--agents with radically different investigative styles. But extracting information from a segregated Southern town whose KKK members incite fear proves to be a challenge more difficult than either agent could have anticipated. Directed by Alan Parker; written by Chris Gerolmo. (R) (AC,AL,MV)

It was bad enough to vibrate some cutlery and glassware across our table in the steak restaurant on deck 14!! We only ate there once. It was not just when we were moving, it was there all the time. The ship also had "a propulsion failure" during the cruise which caused us to slow down, but this was fixed overnight. Maybe the two are connected. The A/C was patchy with some areas of the ship ice cold. The "Movie under the stars" screen packed in as well. This ship needs some major mechanical repairs.
Diamond Princess has poor sanitation control. No sanitizer was provided as we boarded at each port. It seems obvious to me that if you are visiting poor hygiene areas you will carry the bacteria back onto the ship. Lots of passengers had "cold like" symptoms by the end of the cruise. No sanitizers were provided for the restaurants, the only place they were to be found was the Horizon Court buffet on deck 14. Hand wipes were provided in the Internet room but this is a silly idea, hand sanitizers are needed here too, before you enter.
We found service on the Diamond Princess very patchy, not what we have experienced on other Princess ships. Service in 2 of the dining rooms in the evenings was excellent, service in the other one was dire. Table service at breakfast was very slow too. Bar service in the Explorers lounge was a hit and miss experience and on too many occasions I had to go to the bar in order to get a drink after waiting ages for a waiter that never appeared. The waiters were just chatting to each other at the bar. This area is badly in need of a sharp supervisor. In the end we stopped going into this lounge. By way of contrast, the service in the Crooners and Wheelhouse lounges was excellent.
We enjoyed the port tours with one exception. In Singapore the customs officials insisted on face-to-face passport checks. We were on a 4.5 hour tour starting at 9.30am. We didn't clear customs till 11am. But the tour came back at the normal time and so we lost 1.5hours off our tour. Very poor organisation, Princess should have kept the tour to 4.5 hours.
Brett the cruise director and his team were excellent and so was the entertainment. Not all to our taste, but I will say that Sammy Goldstien, the resident singer and entertainer in Crooners, was one of the best that we have ever seen. The Australian comedy magician, Phil "trust me" Cass, was excellent too, as good as we have ever seen on the strip in Las Vegas. The 5 production shows were all new to us and excellent.
Finally, the ship ran out of several types of wine. By day 10 we were down to one page of white wines and no rose wines at all!!! We bought a $29 wine package and we ended up with only a choice of lower price wines thereby eroding the so called saving. How can a cruise ship run out of wine?

"Shaylin held me as if I was the child," Shawnda said. "She knew I didn't remember the birth of her, nor remember those videos of her being so young."
When Shaylin was in the second grade, she wrote in class that when she grew up, she wanted to find a cure for multiple sclerosis.
Helping Shawnda was a mother's impulse, Marsha said, but part of that was born of a burning need for Marsha to redeem herself to her daughter.
When Shawnda was 8, years after her biological father had disappeared, Marsha was in an abusive relationship. Her mother, Shawnda's grandmother, decided to take Shawnda, and Marsha relented. But Shawnda's troubles didn't end there.
"She would beat her," Marsha said. "Mom was cleaning the commode one time and made her eat a rag she had cleaned the commode with. My mom was really an abusive person. I mean, she did it to me."
Shawnda, though, doesn't blame her mother and says she forgave her grandmother long before her death in 2009. Shawnda gave the eulogy at her grandmother's funeral.
"I think we're still very close, and I know that she'll help me in anything," Shawnda said of her mother. "And I'd do the same for her."
I told him I would like to stay b/c of Shaylin, her room, toys, etc., and maybe he could just find a place to stay for a while.
He didn't say anything.
— June 5, 2005
Shawnda was improving, but her marriage continued to struggle. Shawnda says her husband sometimes admitted that he had never loved her. In June 2005, Shawnda told him she wanted a separation. The following February, their divorce became final, and the house was sold.

Player Radio
Best remembered for the late-'70s chart-topper "Baby Come Back," Player were formed in Los Angeles in 1977 by singer/guitarist Peter Beckett (formerly of the U.K. group Skyband), bassist Ronn Moss, and guitarist/keyboardist J.C. Crowley. After adding drummer John Friesen, Player signed to impresario Robert Stigwood's RSO label and issued "Baby Come Back," which sat atop the pop singles chart for three weeks in early 1978; their self-titled debut LP appeared that same year, as did the follow-up, Danger Zone. Crowley exited Player soon after, later enjoying a solo career as a country artist; the remaining trio issued Room with a View in 1980 before Moss and Friesen both departed as well. Beckett, the lone remaining founding member, continued the group for one final LP, 1982's Spies of Life, before retiring the Player name to mount a career as a songwriter and solo performer. Moss, meanwhile, joined the cast of the daytime soap opera The Bold and the Beautiful in 1987; he and Beckett re-formed Player in 1995, soon thereafter issuing the reunion LP Lost in Reality. ~ Jason AnkenyPortions of Content Provided by Rovi Corporation.

Select Route:
Almost as little route finding as its neighbor Repentance. Great moderate drytooling gains thin ice to a good belay ledge. Directly off the ledge, a short but excellent section of rock-gear-protected ice climbing gains the flow coming from the intimidating column, and another belay off to the right. The final pitch climbs the column into a seemingly endless system of chimneys to the woods. You can rappel after the first chimney ends, or go for the glory hike down.
Fifty feet right of Repentence on a steep open wall 50 yards right of the Cathedral cave.
The route protects fairly well. The spots to watch out for are the ice right after the mixed start which can be thin down low and of course the column which can be candled if not well formed.

DENISON, TX -- A Grayson County hospital is expanding without having to leave its own building.
Texoma Medical Center has begun construction on its empty seventh floor in the past few weeks after obtaining a building permit.
But, there's still a lot of work to do before the floor will be ready for patients. The hospital, owned by Pennsylvania-based Universal Health Services, opened its new 165-bed building four years ago.
It currently uses only the first six floors of the building.

Ex-CIA Director Dulles, a One-Time BigLaw Lawyer, Had at Least 100 Affairs, His Sister Has Said
Posted Nov 12, 2012 8:48 AM CDT
By Debra Cassens Weiss
David Petraeus isn't the only CIA director who had an affair.
The New York Times has an opinion column on a predecessor, one-time Sullivan & Cromwell lawyer Allen Dulles, who had at least a hundred affairs, according to his sister, Eleanor. "Indeed," the article says, "the contrast between Dulles' story and that of Mr. Petraeus reflects how fully the life of public servants has changed in the United States."
Dulles headed the CIA between 1953 to 1961 and was "a serial adulterer" whose affairs were legendary, says the column by Stephen Kinzer, author of a forthcoming book on Dulles. While in office, the CIA director's conduct was well-known but the press didn't report on it because journalists at the time considered it not newsworthy. Allen Dulles died in 1969.

Suffolk County officials are warning residents and visitors to take precautions against mosquitoes after samples at some parks tested positive for West Nile virus.
The mosquito samples were taken at Byron Lake Park in Islip and Gardiner County Park in Bay Shore.
As a result, officials are recommending the parks stay closed between 6 p.m. and 8 a.m. Officials are also recommending that neighborhoods near these parks take precautions and stay indoors after dusk.
If you spend time outside, stay protected with insect repellent and long-sleeved clothing. Other tips for reducing exposure to mosquitoes include eliminating stagnant water by getting rid of tin cans, plastic containers, ceramic pots, and discarded tires and making sure roof gutters drain properly, flipping over wading pools and wheel barrows, and changing water in bird baths.

More than 52 single parents from low-income families received gifts for their children during a holiday celebration Saturday hosted by the Mt. San Jacinto College Cooperative Agencies Resources for Education program.
MSJC provides education and services to thousands of valley residents, including families from Temecula, Lake Elsinore and Murrieta.
Student and Murrieta resident Tiffany Harris, 23, is a single parent and part of the CARE program. As a parent of two, she knows firsthand how difficult earning an education can be.
"Without the services provided through these programs, I'm not sure how I can do it,'' said Harris.
Harris is earning a degree in radiology and just earned a spot in the school's honor society.
"I want to be able to provide for my family.''
Fellow CARE student Marquita Barney, 29, is also appreciative of the services she receives through CARE.
"CARE provides support, not just with school, but the students really pull together and support one another,'' said Barney. "We are all single parents, facing our own struggles, but we can relate to each other because we all know how hard it can be.''
CARE is a state-funded program designed to provide assistance and support for single-parent head of households. The main goal is to help obtain a degree, certification, transfer and/or marketable job skills.
Services include priority registration, book aid, academic and personal counseling and low-cost parking permits.
"Many of the programs providing these services go unknown to the student, which is unfortunate because many students could benefit from these programs,'' said Ketmani Kouanchao, director of the CARE and EOPS programs for the college.
Kouanchao goes onto to emphasize that for many, the choice to further their education depends on factors such as finances, the ability to earn a living and balancing parenthood with homework.
CARE coordinator Cindy Manzanilla concurs and encourages those interested in furthering their education to not let these obstacles deter them.
"Anyone, current student or not, is welcome to contact the school to find out about these services, financial aid and other programs that can help ease the strains or concerns that are stopping them from achieving their educational goals.''
Saturday's event included holiday crafts for the children, lunch and a visit from Santa.
The Soboba Band of Luiseno Indians, Soboba Casino and the Soboba Foundation also donated 100 toys for the children of CARE program parents.
Much of the event was made possible by student volunteers through clubs such as CARE, EOPS and the Black Student Union.
For more information on becoming a member of any of these programs or sponsorship opportunities for next year's event, contact Ketmani Kouanchao, Director of EOPS/CARE Programs at firstname.lastname@example.com or Cindy Manzanilla at email@example.com.

I'd like to find similar fonts to Bebas (below):
What do you call these types of fonts? Thick, tall, and usually all in uppercase?
If you're searching for fonts like that, look for condensed fonts. Traditionally used for cramming words into small spaces, they're more often used now for crisp bold blocky titles. Here's an article about using them well.
Tall font = narrow font, set at a large size.
Sounds like you're looking for condensed sans fonts with a fairly heavy weight.
Most font browsers will let you search on 'condensed' as a search term, and narrow by sans and weight using facets - some, like Typekit, will even let you put in 'Width', including narrow fonts that don't identify as condensed - https://typekit.com/fonts?classification=sans-serif&weight=heavy&width=condensed.
I don't think they have a particular name.
I would probably call them Black, Heavy or Extra Bold fonts.
Typekit has a nice search tool that lets you browse by style (in this case sans-serif) and weight, among other properties.
These fonts called "condensed" fonts. You can find some useful alternatives below.

Olathe police officers are approaching school safety by trying to get into kids' heads before they have to respond to a crime.
A focus group with teens was held Thursday night. This was the second one the department has tried, asking kids from all the Olathe public high schools and St. Thomas Aquinas about hot-button safety issues.
The Olathe Police Department and the Citizens Police Advisory Council, along with the Olathe Teen Council, Olathe School District and St. Thomas Aquinas High School, invited student leaders to participate in a two-hour student forum to provide feedback on a variety of issues affecting Olathe's youth population.
One safety issue no one raised was high-profile school shootings, with traffic safety and parking issues more relevant to their day-to-day. The crime concerns were more about vandalism and petty theft than personal safety.
"I think that everybody feels safe at school. It's mostly like the petty stuff, like people stealing, like maybe if you left your cell phone out. Mostly people are pretty comfortable. Nobody steals money from anybody's wallets or anything," Olathe South sophomore Brooke Alemu said.
Police spent the evening asking students their views on a variety issues including crime, campus safety, traffic, alcohol, narcotics, school resource officers and current youth trends.
Olathe South junior Genessis Ortiz said drugs and alcohol are a serious issue.
While alcohol remains a concern, marijuana is a growing concern from the previous year.
Some students said having police officers and security officers inside buildings helps deter crime. Some said school-resource officers could be even more visible.
"With the SOR there, it really helps out a lot," Olathe North freshman Marcus Sawyer said. "You have somebody that you know you can count on to help you out if there's something that goes wrong."
The police department said they highly value the close working relationship officers have with the various schools and students associated with Olathe.
One of the organizers said the biggest concern among kids at the last forum was cyber bullying. That had been the No. 1 concern 18 months ago, but now that is no longer such a major concern, officials said.
KCTV5 did not cover the entire event to afford students the opportunity to speak openly without cameras present.

And then what? We go with undersized, worthless DTs again? They play the most importnat (arguably) position in this Tampa2 scheme. I would rather spend the money on the DT, or D-line, and throw Joey G into the PR duties.
If Clements is that good of a cover guy he would fit perfectly into our system. BK is the corner on this team that plays a lot of man and it has been said that the Bucs D doesn't play the cover 2 100% of the time. I believe it was said that the Bucs play more man than cover 2 anymore. Maybe we swing a trade that send Rice and Booger there for Clements and a 2nd round pick. That would put the Bucs in position to grab either the top DE or DT in the first and a top DE or DT in the second with one of our two picks. With Barber, Clements, Zem, BK, Bolden, and Cox on the team going into next year the Bucs would be safe at CB no matter what happens. This isn't going to be a superbowl season so why not build toward the future? Having Clements would mean that the Bucs wouldn't have to spend another high pick on a CB because we would have a young Zem and Clements to go with Barber and Kelly, if not the Bucs will likely take another corner early in this draft anyway.
. No one wants to trade for a DE Rice's age unless they think they can go all the way this season.
The Bills just traded for Anthony Hargrove who is a starting caliber DE. They might want Booger because he is still relatively young, but would want nothing to do with Rice. No one wants to trade for a DE Rice's age unless they think they can go all the way this season. The Bills certainly aren't in that category.
Why do you guys assume we cant afford to sign Clements and a premier DT in his prime also? The Bucs will be 21 mil below the cap. Hardly any big bonus/longterm deals to screw with the cap a few years down the line, and when Booger and Rice's huge salaries come off teh books in the offseason (there contracts dont run out but they will be gone) we should be closer to 30 mil under. I figure Booger will save close to 4-5 mil, and Rice more like 8 mil. With 30+ mil in cap room we can sign Clements, a good young DT, maybe a Center, maybe a half way decent vet QB, maybe a LB and safety. Not that we will spend that freely like Washington. Maybe we will prove to be conservative with cap room for the first time under Allen/Gruden. But the money will be there
Good point. However, with 30+ mil and as of now nobody locked into contracts we cant get out of (aside from Caddy, Clayton, Barber, Joseph), this team will be in as good a shape cap wise as anyone in the league oevr the next few years. Caddy and Clayton will not get paid for another few years. Not that it shouldnt be taken into consideration, but they already have huge bonuses and large salaries they are playing under. With the salary cap increasing something like 5 mil per season, that will add even more cushion to the 30 mil we will have when BOoger and Rice are gone. I see no reason why this team cant resign Clayton, Caddy, Ruud and Smith and still sign a few bluechip FA.
As for Booger....he can't possibly be worse than what we have.
Are you guys fielding a DL consisting of special olympic all stars?

Joe Maddon, manager of the Tampa Bay Rays, headed for a European vacation about two weeks ago.
Just imagine the manager with the curly, graying hair and squarish glasses staring at works in the Louvre. Or taking a gondola ride in the canals of Venice. Or...
Well, maybe you can't imagine that. But you, and Joe, might imagine this, as reported by Marc Topkin of the Tampa Bay Times:
A three-year contract extension for manager Joe Maddon, barring an unexpected late twist, will be completed and announced after he returns from Europe this week and before the Feb. 20 opening of spring training.
Maddon will turn 58 next week and has been the manager of the Rays for six seasons, four of which have been winning ones -- after the Rays had lost 101 and 96 games in his first two years. Maddon waited a long time for his managerial shot, too; he spent ten years as bench coach for the Angels, under four different managers (Marcel Lachemann, John McNamara, Terry Collins and Mike Scioscia) before getting his first shot at the top job.
Managing has clearly changed Maddon. Check out what he looked like in his last year as Angels bench coach:
Clean-cut. Short hair. No glasses. Here's what was written about him at the time he was hired:
Maddon liked the idea of managing a young, developing team, as well as working for new principal owner Stuart Sternberg and the club's unique management team.
Maddon said that before his first interview, he received a 47-page e-mail expounding on Sternberg's philosophies for turning around the Rays' situation. He came away quite impressed.
Anyone who can get through a 47-page e-mail has to be a guy who pays attention to detail, and that's clearly Joe Maddon. Maddon and Sternberg must have been on the same page as far as player acquisitions, too; Evan Longoria was the then Devil Rays' first round pick in 2006 and he was fast-tracked to the major leagues, becoming AL Rookie of the Year in 2008; other factors in the Rays' sudden move from 96 losses in 2007 to 94 wins in 2008 were the acquisitions of Matt Garza and Troy Percival, who solidified an already-improving pitching staff.
Of course, it's the general manager's job to acquire players, and no one should dismiss the job Andrew Friedman has done in building the Rays into a powerhouse. But Maddon is clearly part of that plan as well, and the granting of the three-year extension shows the franchise has a plan and is willing to stick to it. By the end of that extension, Maddon would be in his 10th year as Rays manager and, if the team could win a World Series or two in that time, possibly on a track to the Hall of Fame.
Now if only the Rays could get their stadium situation sorted out ...

2.71/5 rDev -13.4%
This is dated from October 2012, enjoyed—well, opened—at the end of 2012.
It pours a hazy golden color with no foam. I get a estery, yeasty aroma—but an old yeasty aroma, not something fresh. For a beer that's only a few months out I wouldn't expect that.
The flavor has a refreshing crispness to it. I get more life from the flavor than the aroma—there's some coriander and orange peel, with a more pronounced yeasty ester profile. However it drops off with a flat finish and an unwelcome malty corn sweetness. Not one I'd have again.

12 ounce can, without freshness/canning date info.
The poor is hazed medium tangerine, fine bubble off white head, leaves some fine lacing on the glass.
Sniff reveals just some faint wheat malts, and a very faint fruitiness.
Slight drying in the finish. Forgettable little brew, would be decent on a very hot summer day with a light lunch. Besides that situation not much chance I would go for this one again

2.94/5 rDev -6.1%
Slightly hazed body, eggshell white head forms a cloudy three fingers worth with fine even lacing. Aroma has a nice sharp wheat and citrus combo with very mild spice additions, limited coriander which is usually a good thing for my palate. Flavor wise there's some biscuit bread dough layers with a very chalky yeast in the finish, slight hint of citrus peel and coriander with a relatively lackluster overall flavor. Carbonation is light, not much on the palate as far as textures go but still not a horrible beer, under 4.5% it's light and refreshing and keeps you wanting to experience the next sip. It has a trademark Atwater characteristic it misses the mark on the style and ends in a generic watered down version of a witbier, I appreciate it for what it is but can't really look at this as a beer I want to keep buying.

Overall- Weak and watery but easy to drink and slightly refreshing on a hot day.

Cold 12 oz bottle poured into 20oz pint glass. Beer pours like soda, with giant bubbles, forming no head. Beer is very pale and slightly clouded.
First sip is refreshing...like water. Bland, bland, bland. fizzy, then nothing. There's a slight citrus/spice/irrelevant note. A bad beer.

2.25/5 rDev -28.1%
12oz bottle into standard pint glass. July 2010 bottling.
A: The body looks a bit light and has a clear starw hue to it. The head sinks fast and has a foamy look to it. The carbonation level seems to be out the roof.
S: The aroma is a bit low on the intensity aspect and has a touch of grass and straw character. Nothing exceeding average.
T/M: The upfront taste is lemon bitterness and that is unrefined and not balanced. The lemon is very artifical tasting and does not tend to mesh well with the high level of carbonation. Together there is a lemon soda element, that is not too pleasing. Hop character is minimal at best and the body is very thin.
O: Overall I feel that this brew falls short of style and does not represent a refreshing summer ale very well. The main concern I have is the astrigent lemon aspect and the high level of carbonation that gives a soda sensation. This is a slightly older bottle that a friend gave me, which they are still selling in store, past prime, but still on the market (maybe it should'nt be sold this far past bottling).

Trying the Dirty Blonde...that's how I like my blondes!!! Anyway...the beer pours a cloudy yellow with thin white head that is not lacing. The smell includes orange zest and floralness. The taste carries much the same as the smell but has a nice wheat base to it. The mouthfeel is lighter in body with decent carbonation. Overall it isnt a bad beer.

On-tap at Liberty St. Tavern in Allentown, PA. Appears hazy dark blonde. There's nothing very remarkable about this beer. It was a slightly sweet wheat malt flavor so it kind of just tastes like sugary liquid bread. No hops to speak of and while it's easy-drinking and balanced, it's not really a pleasure to drink. It just does nothing for me.

I was looking at the photo comparison today, comparing the SD1 against the new Canon 5 D Mk III, the Nikon D800E, and the Pentax 645 D . . . at ISO 800 . . . and I just can not believe my eyes. Take a look at this:
The SD1 never ceases to amaze me.

I had originally wanted the old school push button switch for my antique table saw. I have had this switch hardwired in for about two months and it has performed in an exemplary fashion. I tend to "whack" the stop paddle fairly hard and it takes whatever I give it. I will definitely buy more of these as I continue to restore my vintage woodshop.

PEORIA, Ill. -- This warm up is raising concerns for flooding on roadways and inside of your home.
Workers at Menold Construction & Restoration have responded to more than 100 flooded homes. Floods can cause up to hundreds of thousands worth of damage. Basic services start around $2,000.
There are ways you can protect your home from flooding. It starts with moving the snow away from your home and getting a sump pump.
"Get the moisture away," said Steven Driscoll, Vice President of Menold Construction & Restoration. "If it's in snow form or a liquid form, get it away. Make sure your discharge lines are clean and not frozen. I know a lot people who say, 'I don't need to worry because I got a new sump pump,' but that does not mean that the discharge lines are not frozen. Clean them out and make sure they're working."
If your home is already flooded, call a restoration service. Make sure to use fans and dehumidifiers to suck out the moisture to prevent mold.

National Guard Panther Racing Team Happy with Pace During Two Practice Sessions During the Day
BALTIMORE, Maryland (August 30, 2013) – National Guard Panther Racing driver "Baltimore Oriol" Servia posted the 12th-quickest overall practice time from the two IndyCar Series sessions held Friday on the Streets of Baltimore. Servia, who was runner-up here in 2011 and captured a Top Ten last season for Panther Dreyer Reinbold Racing, is slated to make his fourth start of the season in Panther's No. 4 National Guard Chevrolet.
"It's been a great start at the Orioles home base, and I feel right at home with all these Orioles signs hanging up around the track for me. It's definitely an encouraging start to the weekend. I cannot remember the last time we started this good, so it's obvious the testing we did recently at Sebring is paying off. It's hard to tell where everybody else is because we didn't get a run on new tires in the last session. We'll see, but I'm definitely happy with the work everybody on the National Guard Panther team has been doing."
Servia posted a total of 25 laps during the day's two 45-minute sessions and posted a top average lap speed of 91.341 mph, 1:20.3953 seconds. Rookie Tristian Vautier, who was followed on the final speed chart by Graham Rahal (P2) and Josef Newgarden (P3), led today's practice.
Tomorrow's action will consist of another practice session in the morning followed by Firestone Fast Six qualifications at 12:00 pm (EDT).
Race Broadcast Info:
The Baltimore Grand Prix will be broadcast live on NBC Sports Network on August 30th at 2 pm (EST) with additional coverage provided by the IMS Radio Network, XM/Sirius Channel 211. Practice, qualifying and race coverage is also available on the IndyCar Mobile app from Verizon.

Photo Flash: In Rehearsal with Titan Theatre's THIS PRISON WHERE I LIVE - Reese Madigan and More!
Titan Theatre Company's rehearsals are underway for their World Premiere production of Angela Iannone's This Prison Where I Live, starring Broadway actor Reese Madigan. The production has a limited week long NYC engagement and is set to open January 22nd, with performances through January 26th at The Secret Theatre in Long Island City. Scroll down for a look at the cast!
"The cast is now deep into rehearsal for this exciting World Premiere. I could not be happier or more thrilled for Angela's work to be TITAN's first venture outside of Shakespeare. However, TITAN fans shouldn't be worried about not getting their Shakespeare fix with this production. The play is set during Edwin's run of RICHARD II at the McVicker in 1879. So there is plenty of Shakespeare's text within the play itself." said TITAN Artistic Director Lenny Banovez. "This is the perfect compliment to our season. After our excellent run of 'MIDSUMMER'in this past Fall, THIS PRISON WHERE I LIVE is a perfect choice to keep the ball rolling and to continue building excitement for our much anticipated production of KING LEAR this Spring."
Joining Madigan (Holiday, Abe Lincoln in Illinois) as Edwin Booth are Titan company member Tristan Colton as John Wilkes Booth and Titan alums Tressa Preston as Mary McVicker, Susan Maris as Mary Delvin and Jake Russo as Mark Grey. Playwright Iannone will also direct.
This Prison Where I Live, the second play in Iannone's Edwin Booth Trilogy, "transports audiences to Edwin Booth's 1879 run of William Shakespeare's Richard II at the McVicker Theatre in Chicago where stirring drama unfolds as the ghost of Booth's infamous brother, assassin John Wilkes Booth, pays a visit to Edwin at the McVicker," according to press notes.
Titan presented a sold-out reading of the first play in Iannone's trilogy, The Edwin Booth Company Presents, at the Player's in New York City in January 2013.
Other members of the creative team include Alan Piotrowicz (lighting design), Jesse Michael Mothershed (assistant director), Jasmine Roberts (set design), Liz Lundberg (scenic artist), Jessica Wallin (props design) and Katherine White (stage management). Titan managing director Kevin Beebee produces.
The Secret Theatre is located at 44-02 23rd Street in Long Island City. For more information and tickets, call (347) 738-5602 or visit TitanTheatreCompany.com.

When sound designer Tony Meola was doing The Sound of Music, he sprang for a trip to Salzburg to record authentic sounds for the show. There is a wall in set designer David Gallo's studio with models of unrealized scenery, items cut when there was no money to build them. When an artistic vision is bigger than a budget, designers beg, borrow, subsidize, and compromise. They may get the look they're after for less. They may lose something crucial. Or they may find that less stimulates more creativity.
To costume a multi-ethnic festival scene in Camino Real at Williamstown, Michael Krass assembled cardboard, poster paints, feathers, bamboo, grass skirts, white Indian cotton, and crepe paper. With the theatre's interns, he turned all this into festival clothes that included giant masks and huge totems on bamboo poles. He dressed 35 people, spent about $300, and doubts he could have done it for more. "It had enormous raw energy," he says. If the show finds its way to Broadway — and it might — he will have to build clothes to last and find a way to adapt his idea to a big budget.
Lighting designer Kenneth Posner launched his career in an abandoned machine shop, using commercial lighting fixtures supplemented with some primitive stage equipment to reveal the Expressionist world of Machinal. When Joseph Papp moved the show to the Public Theatre and Posner recreated his design, the general manager congratulated him for coming in $20,000 under budget. Posner was surprised to learn there had been a budget.
"Ideas are never driven by how much money you have or don't have," Posner reflects. "Of course, implementing them is always driven by resources, human or financial or spatial or time." The trick is "to hold onto the spark of inspiration behind the idea and make it work with the resources you have." The Wild Party at the MTC came together on a tight budget, but Posner says the design team achieved what it was after, adding, "I don't look at compromise as a negative thing."
Projection designer Wendall K. Harrington sees it as downright positive. "Everybody watches television. We try to give them that level of experience, but they came out to get away from TV," she reflects. "I say, let them pay eighty bucks and give them less. Give them half an image. Let them leave with a beautiful headache, a delicious confusion that can only be escaped by thinking it through."
Harrington starts with dozens of images and engages in a process of elimination. Using computer printouts or Xerox copies, she doesn't produce anything at high resolution until she figures out what she's after and the director approves. "One completely brilliant idea that you have to refine and refine as opposed to eight" is her ideal. "That kind of economy is good for the soul," she says.
Production designer John Iacovelli agrees that the process of cutting tests the design and can make it better. "I want to go on a journey with director and producer," he says. Yet, at times he won't take the trip. Iacovelli almost agreed to do Fool for Love, a favorite play, with a creative team he liked. Then he learned there would be no costume designer, that the theatre was "trying to save money by losing a valuable vision," and he opted out.
Iacovelli says he used to rotate between shops but found he couldn't ask favors from people who knew they wouldn't get the next show. Now the designer has ongoing relationships with two shops, and he asks theatres to let him control the budget so he can go outside the house shop when he can get something built better for less that way.
Gallo splits shows between several shops, picking the right one for each item. He knows shops cover contingencies and keep profit margins in mind when they bid, and he likes to play "let's make a deal," sometimes giving one shop more of the show than he intended in order to get a bulk rate. Shops often meet him halfway, and so do producers.
Initial bids will be at least twice the allocated budget, Gallo figures. "We tend to draw things in a very complete way," he says. "In the dream version, we don't make any compromises." That, he says, gives him room to move. He can cut a piece of scenery, change materials, and eliminate some details, usually without compromising the look. He made many cuts on Epic Proportions, even eliminating the prettiest piece because it had no conceptual function, and says the show didn't suffer.
Through clear and complete discussions with scene shops, Gallo often avoids cuts, finding simpler ways to accomplish what he needs. There are shop tools that run from computer drawings; layout can be done by a computer expert in the shop for a sizable fee or by a design assistant with some computer savvy. One way a producer can save money is by paying for that assistant.
Scenic and lighting designer Kevin Rigdon also engages in shop talk. "Are there ways to save on labor by approaching it differently? Would the same thing in a smaller size make the difference? Do you need 300% fullness in the curtain or will 150% work? I like to work with shops to find solutions," he says.
Using material in stock saves money. For Closer at the Alley, Rigdon found leftover steel-framed panels; by inserting Plexiglas, he created an illuminated deck. When Iacovelli did Les Liaisons Dangerous at Pasadena Playhouse, he used two turntables, tracking, and flip stages left from other shows to create a world that revolved around the protagonist, who stood in the middle of moving furniture.
"Ideas are never driven by how much money you have or don't have." Kenneth Posner
When lighting designer Frances Aronson did March of the Falsettos at Playwrights Horizons Studio Theatre some 13 years before Broadway, she recalls using bulbs in paint cans. The studio has grown since, but lighting designers in regional theatres are often stuck with the ancient equipment theatres have in stock. "The resources each theatre has are so unique," Aronson says, explaining that while many are gradually replacing inventories, others feel they have been doing great work for years and won't make changes. Some regionals have people on staff, so maintaining equipment and running costs less than renting new equipment. "Some are good about maintaining old equipment so it does what it always did as well," she adds. "But try to focus a show when every lamp needs repair."
Some smaller theatres will buy a console that's a generation or two out of date. Some can't afford an extra monitor so the designer and operator can see screens simultaneously, making it hard to tech, particularly in previews.
For a production of A Raisin in the Sun set under elevated train tracks, Aronson needed to create sequences of trains passing overhead. The Dallas Theatre Center has a few strobes and some lobster scopes. Rather than renting more strobes, she created the sense of light passing through the window of an overhead train by combining old equipment. Aronson compromises where she can, using house equipment for frontlights, perhaps, and relying on mechanical substitutes for modern effects. She tries to achieve an idea without a lot of flash, and relies on ongoing relationships with shops and theatres to help in a crunch. She'll use stock color or a stock template when she must. But, she says, "Somewhere along the line, the theatre has to find a way to achieve some semblance of what you want."
Costume designer David Zinn can't remember when he last bought retail clothing, and he usually doesn't build period clothes from scratch. Secondhand and discount stores are his stomping grounds, and adapting something contemporary is his path to period clothing. He looks for shapes that echo period shapes and cuts and combines garments to suggest a different era. A 70s blouse with a 50s bodice might become a turn-of-the-century look.
Redressing an existing costume is another tack; for The Little Foxes, Zinn bought cheap beaded dresses at Marshall's and used the beading. A current production of The Importance of Being Earnest at Indiana Rep allowed him some leeway because the entire show is "a little wacky…and theatricalized," he says. "We can slide in some contemporary things," Before he alters clothing, he alters his ideas — "I try to have an idea that isn't about Masterpiece Theatre," he explains.
Krass often does contemporary realism, which makes economizing relatively easy since most real people don't pay a fortune for their wardrobes. "I have always had my most creative times in racks of clothes, whether it be at a rental house, the Salvation Army, an actor's closet, or mine," he says. Because he doesn't usually "sit in a room and dream and do sketches of a dreamed reality," he is not likely to be disappointed. "I tend to dream an emotional world and to understand characters in relationship to each other. Who is the stronger color? The bolder shape? The more broken-down? The most new?" Recycled clothes may reveal more character than new ones. Sometimes, however, simplicity is deceptive. The costumes for Charlie Brown, for instance, appeared less expensive than they actually were, and the producers raised extra money for them.
The commercial theatre tends to be more flexible than institutional theatres that plan a season with budgets for several shows at once. "A commercial producer will say, 'Hey this is cool, we can use it in marketing,'" Posner says. Some theatres divide design budgets equally between shows, which Iacovelli protests when one play has one set and the one he's designing has 10.
When Meola works Off Broadway, you might find him on a ladder focusing a loudspeaker or doing his own riggings. "I would do it on Broadway, if anyone would let me," he says, but union regulations interfere. Broadway budgets need to be handled differently. When Meola read a letter from the producers of Kiss Me, Kate, asking all designers to reconsider their budgets before the show goes out on tour in June, he says he asked, "Who do you want to take the microphones away from?" He adds, "A microphone costs a bit of money and that goes into an input on a console that costs money. When you reduce the number of microphones, you reduce the cost." That might mean taking a mic from an ensemble member after he's said his single line and passing it to the member who goes next, or getting the director to position that person near a mic.
But Meola begins by going through the show carefully, working out equipment compromises with the shop. If he accepts an older model of a speaker, for instance, he might be able to get it cheaper. "It's not terrible to have a smaller console for tours," he says. Sometimes budget problems lead to new discoveries. Meola, for instance, didn't know Meyer makes smaller subwoofers until he needed one. The major expense is in equipment, not sound effects, and although Meola can cut costs by changing the studio that will click-track a show, that is problematic when stars are involved. "You don't want to take a star to somebody's basement studio," he says.
Sometimes, designers subsidize one project with another. Iacovelli borrows props and set dressings from Babylon 5 and other TV shows or films he designs. He also saves drops and pieces to adapt when needed. Friends have teased him when they recognize things from his house onstage, but the abundance allows him to extend the look of low-budget shows. Other times, designers pick up the costs, as Meola did in Salzburg. "If the producers won't pay for something and it's important enough for you to do it, you do it," says the sound designer. "There is no designer who has not subsidized a production out of his own pocket, from a person just coming out of school doing a show in a basement to someone doing a Broadway show," Posner says; this can mean anything from paying an assistant to buying templates.
"You can get yourself into trouble by helping producers reduce their budgets by cutting back on studio time or equipment," Meola warns. "You all discuss it won't be exactly what you wanted. Then in techs, the director and producer ask why it doesn't sound better. People tend to forget." Rigdon notes that designers are always in the middle. "We are the ones who have to go back to the director and say we can build stage left but not stage right."

"I purchased this store in November of 2000 and it was in that little space next door. And in April of 2002 we moved in here," said Pam Fowler, who owns the local bookstore in Bellows Falls.
Fowler says when the store was doomed to close over a decade ago, she decided buy it. For years the business was booming, especially from customers coming in on weekends from neighboring New Hampshire towns. "You can hear right now -- normally we would have a lot of traffic passing by, and it's really quieted down," she said. "And if you think that 4,000 cars used to pass over that bridge every day."But several years ago, the Vilas bridge closed to all traffic, cutting off the town's New Hampshire connection. Although a temporary bridge was built North of Bellows Falls, Fowler says the traffic now goes around the center of town, and businesses have definitely taken a huge hit. "It made a major impact to the merchants down here," said Tom MacPhee, Chairman of the Bellows Falls Selectboard. MacPhee says since the bridge has closed business has dropped in town by at least 30 percent. But getting the bridge back open isn't going to be cheap. He says it will cost an estimated $6.6 million. What's even more tricky, MacPhee says, is Vermont only owns a fraction of the bridge, so it is up to New Hampshire to foot the bill. "New Hampshire is going to pick up 93 percent of the bridge -- Vermont 7 percent, so we are not getting their attention. Even though we've been on the short list -- been kicked off the short list -- so I don't even know for sure where we are," MacPhee said.The New Hampshire Department of Transportation says the project is not in its 10-year improvement plan. But MacPhee says they are reaching out to Vermont legislators. Just weeks ago, the selectboard sent a letter to Governor Shumlin asking for help. "Anything -- whether they can encourage New Hampshire to help us, or help them get along and maybe even provide more than 7 percent to help. I don't know, we are just saying what can you do? If anything," MacPhee said.As for Fowler back at the bookstore, she says local merchants are trying to hold on until the bridge is re-opened. Although the silence can make reading easier, she says it's been too quiet around town.

No-Knit Snuggly Hat and Mittens
Get MoreSubscribe to Martha Stewart Living
It wouldn't be spin to describe this craft as ridiculously easy. Although in some ways that's exactly what you do with a Knitwit: spin (well, wrap) thread around a circular or square-shaped tool to create loopy rosettes. Rendered with luxurious yarns such as mohair, these florets look decidedly modern.
To determine how much yarn you'll need per rosette, follow this rule of thumb: Winding once around the tool requires two yards, winding twice requires three yards, and so on.
While the Knitwit has been discountinued, the Hana Ami Flower Loom ($20, purlsoho.com, similar to shown) comes with instructions, so we've limited the how-tos to our modifications. The basic technique involves wrapping the yarn and then twisting the tool's stem to release the floret with a satisfying pop.
Editor's Tip: Creating these blossomlike designs calls for a different kind of holiday wrapping. Wind thread around a Knitwit, knotting at each loop with a needle. For thicker yarn, use a tapestry needle; for thinner, a sewing one. To alter the "pattern," play with thread type and the number of times it's wound around the tool.

No-Knit Textured Throw and Patterned Pillows
- Knitwit or Hana Ami Flower Loom ($20, purlsoho.com)
- Angora yarn
- Needle
- Hat and mittens
- Disappearing ink pen
Step 1
Make your little one's winter wear even cozier with rosettes. These call for angora, wrapped three times each. To attach them as earflaps, first put on the hat (high on the head). Hold the rosettes to cover the ears, and mark the position. Use the same yarn and a needle to stitch the earflaps to the hat.
Step 2
To embellish the mittens, affix florets at their centers and at each knot (you'll know where they are from the Knitwit instructions) around the perimeter.

I also thought this would be instructions on making the mittens. A felting project perhaps? Also, we're starting to see so many repeats lately...what's up?

I believe Martha is running out of ideas !!!! I've been thinking that for some time now. The "crafts of the day" have been seriously... just plain SILLY!

I finally got all the passwords, and all the registration and finally got all the ads to sell the Martha Stewart....stuff...eliminated and "finally" was able to get the craft a day delivered by Email; and now I see incomplete and misleading information. It is obvious, all this is to " sell baby sell" all the little gadgets. I'm out ta here:(

Another waste of time, coming to find out how to do a craft only to have it not be what it seemed, and then a link that takes you to a page that says the account is suspended. What, someone went to jail or something? I don't know why I bother with this site. More often than not, I am disappointed.
empressfrancis113 Jan, 2013
OK---This project has been here for close to 3 years and no one from Martha Stewart has read or replied to any of these messages. Does that give you any sort of idea about how things are run? It's all about the bottom line, folks and making money for Ms Stewart. Sorry to be so negative but....

I agree with Vicki I only looked because of the hat and mittens pattern. Maybe we are to buy the hat and just add the rosettes but that isn't really homemade in my book.
Vicki1119 Dec, 2010
Where is the pattern for mittens and hat??? Not even a mentiion about where they got them. I love Martha's ideas, but the show as well is turning into a commercial for everything she sells! Not good.

Mohair for a baby wearable??? Puh-leeze. 1. costly. 2. hairy/sheds. 3. many babies will find this fiber itchy.
Love ya, Martha, but this one's better in the photo layout than real life.

It seems to me that this is a great advertisement for the KnitWit, however, there are no instructions on how to make the hat and mittens. That was the reason I clicked on this project was to see how to make this item.

Julie, I appreciate the free craft projects also. I just don't like being mislead.
erinluvstocraft19 Feb, 2010
I agree - just title the craft something like, Add embelishments to existing pieces...

I also was expecting something cut from an old sweater and felted, not embellished store bought hat and mittens. Also, the mohair hat and mittens, if store bought, would be quite expensive and elegant enough without embellishment. I,too, was disappointed in this project.

Google making rosettes yarn and you'll find many results if rosettes are your "thang". They aren't mine. I expected to find no knit hat and mittens, not how to embellish a ready made hat and mittens. It's got nothing to do with creativity. I am an artist. I'm creative. I'm also aggravated.

If you hadn't noticed, many of the things in crafts here and elsewhere require specialty tools, and this one isn't even expensive. How much does an embossing gun cost, to make greeting cards and invitations that the reciever is just going to throw away after the event ?

It seems that some of the commenters here are lacking in creativity. Like an earlier comment said, make a simple tool, or go buy one, and use it many times to decorate dozens of things around your house and to embleish gifts. Not to mention all the things you can make out of just rosettes.

aye . . . this instructs how to make ROSETTES--not the "Hat and Mittens." whimsical and fun, though mislabeled.
sweetiepye17 Feb, 2010
I believe this is titled wrong. There are no instructions for the hat and mittens, just the rosettes.
PaisleyRose17 Feb, 2010
I agree with Lucy, the tool looks simple to make.

Why not make your own rosette? Perhaps a circle of reinforced cardboard with
ball headed straight pins inserted evenly aroud the edges into the cardboard.
Poster board (the foam filled) might be just the ticket.
lasalloise17 Feb, 2010
I quite agree with the comments above...If you don't have the tool, you cannot do anything!!!

Nice ad for knitwit but otherwise, rather useless as an actual craft.
