external floppy for OMNIBOOK XE4100 LAPTOP
I have been in-putting files into an HP Omnibook xe4100 and the floppy drive has failed. A disk got stuck in it and I may have sprung something while I attempted to get it out. At anyrate, it seems to be holding a grudge against my intrusion into its working system; it now refuses to accept a 3.5 floppy at all. So, I went to ebay and bought the correct external floppy drive with the required cable. The cable plugs into the Parallel port which was previously occupied by the PRINTER. I de-installed the pronter and the A drive as well and booted the machine. It gave me a message about a problem with the floppy drive, totally ignoring the fact that a neww external floppy drive was attached to its parallel port. I really do not want to take the machine apart and rip out the old floppy drive and would greatly appreciate it if someone could let me know what I need to do. I am not used to making changes to the BIOS, so please give it to me in byte sized steps, if possible.

Realising the importance of taking along the Muslims, who constitutes a good 12 per cent of the electorate, in determining the outcome of the upcoming Assembly elections, Delhi BJP chief Vijay Goel has literally handed out an olive branch to the community by organising a Convention for Muslims at Talkatora Stadium here on Sunday.
Talking to The Hindu, Mr. Goel said: "The idea behind the convention is to tell the Muslims that they should shed their inhibitions about the BJP and give the party a chance as it has always worked hard for the welfare of all communities, including the Muslims."
Earlier this month too, Mr. Goel had tried to reach out to the community when he had visited the India Islamic Cultural Centre and addressed a large number of people there. "It is after many years that such a convention has been organised for the Muslims by the BJP and I am confident that they would see reason in aligning with the party, which has often been wrongly criticised by its opponents," Mr. Goel said, adding that the agenda for the convention is to discuss and present a specific programme on providing better education and employment opportunities for the community. "In the convention, the party will be presenting a positive action plan for the community," he added.
Mr. Goel, who took over the reins of the party around four months ago, said it has been focussing on specific groups and has already organised a major lunch for Dalits, a convention for the youth and public meetings focussed on villages and unauthorised colonies. "We are no longer into a strategy of just holding protests at Jantar Mantar," he quipped.
In fact, Mr. Goel claimed, it was in the wake of the concerted programmes organised by the Delhi BJP – be it in relation to power tariffs or water supply – that has made the ruling Congress jittery and prompted its vice-president Rahul Gandhi to himself oversee party meetings. "The Congress does not know where to look and the recent change of guard of AICC in-charge of Delhi is an indicator of the unease in the party," he said.
As for the Muslim convention, Mr. Goel said it would highlight how the community has been facing a number of hurdles when it comes to their socio-economic development. "The literacy rate among the Muslims is much below than the average literacy rate of the city. The employment opportunities are also few and far between for them as the education they are getting is not linked with skill development. The BJP feels it is time to go for course correction and focus on these issues if we really want to ensure the welfare of the community."
Mr. Goel also claimed that the BJP's words did not lack substance as during the Atal Bihari Vajpayee Government at the Centre a number of steps were taken for welfare of the Muslims, including an ambitious programme for modernising madrassa education and special programmes for generating employment opportunities for the community.
Keywords: BJP, Muslim vote, Vijay Goel, Talkatora Stadium

(Source: 90s90s90s, via kim-jong-chill)
There's too much of us in the floor by now,
on hooks underground like coats behind doors,
waiting to get new life poked and slid
with new brains in our hoods
and hands in our pockets.
Fed on fossil milk and kept on ice
as if we'll wake up and shake
the lice and worms and mould and dirt.
I'm forgetting what came first,
the meat and bones or the tiny shocks
that told me to be meat and bones
and feet and toes and mouth
and nose and blood to flow.
I feel like I've got more to know.
Am I just some distant glow from twenty- three light-years ago?
Can I shed this dust that's grown
around me, if I burn away my body
will my ashes find a home,
Or does my soul go up in smoke?
It was really considerate of my boss to fill his office with bouncy chairs that help the nodding process. If he wanted his employees to agree with his ideas out of sheer laziness whether they were good or not, then he made an absolute genius move in buying those chairs. Whatever my next job is, I'm going to have to do some neck warm-ups beforehand, because if this one is anything to go by then I'm going to be vigorously nodding along to some crazy shit every 5 seconds.
1: KILL LESS TIME: stop spending whole days/nights watching back to back Simpsons episodes and drinking, waiting for day to end. Book more tickets for things, read more, be more sociable.
2: NO PORN: kills imagination, horrible to women, encourages laziness.
3: READ/WATCH MORE NON FICTION: try and actually learn things instead of ignore reality.
4: APPRECIATE THINGS WHILE IN POSSESSION: enjoy things while they are happening, stop wishing they were different.
5: DO MORE NEW SHIT: reason time goes so slowly as child is that most experiences are new; force more new experiences, prolong life.
6: PRODUCE RAP ALBUM: unrealistic.
Curled up one night,
I realised we were breathing
at the same time.
I sped up in panic,
The air between us got thick.
Everything I ever lacked
you'd swallowed, and I wished
that I could reach in and get it back.
Wipe off all the scratches,
beg for our mistakes to be my mistakes again.
I felt sick, but I couldn't be sick.
Just like I feel everything, but can never say anything.
So I carried on with half of me,
one eye to focus on, one hand to tickle and cling on,
a leg to stand on.
The world probably did end in December last year, and there's a Mayan footnote in the small print somewhere saying "yeah sorry we didn't see any real point carrying on from here, we'll have fucked ourselves into oblivion by then surely. Don't read into it too much, kids". Or maybe the Mayan's laziness was meant to signify the beginning of the downward spiral, with the state taking more and more control of the people and one country claiming more and more power of the earth, massacres and wars popping up without most of the Western world even noticing, etc etc. Or maybe shit's always been this bad and it took me a couple of decades to realise. Whatever happened, Hollywood took what could have been a subtle sign of the slow demise of the human race and turned it into a Michael Bay fantastical disasterwank that still managed to be shit even though it's budget could have fed half of Africa for a year. 0/10.
Everyone was eager to please at lunch time. We were all escorted across the road and up the stairs of the building opposite into a room on the top floor. There was a small fan and plates of sandwiches. There was a big rectangular table that everyone who was lucky got to sit around so that they could face each other and eat tidily and relax and talk, and then there were the fringe seats where the late people sat. Being as it was a business course, a lot of people started lunch time outside on their phones talking to partners and associates, so when they got upstairs the table seats were gone. They usually got crumbs all over them and had to hunch over their food while they spoke. I was usually late.
Ray had recently become a Buddhist. He went to meetings where they sat facing the wall and chanted mantras over and over. One of his eyes was facing the wall at all times, and the other darted around like it was independent of his will. He was about 5 ft 6 and walked with a shuffling limp, which meant he was one of the late ones and a permanent fixture in the fringe seats. He said what made him turn to Buddhism was the day that two of his friends died on opposite ends of the country. He wanted to start a business where he was teaching children about sustainable energy, as he had a lot of experience in that field. He had spoken extensively about this in class, as he spoke extensively about a lot of things. I didn't think his business plan was that plausible but I was quite interested in spirituality at the time, so I listened to him talk for an hour about Buddhism. He said that he didn't understand why the world was such a horrible place, and if everyone could replace their thoughts of hatred with more powerful thoughts of love then the world would finally be at peace. I agreed.
The next morning I saw a police woman walk out of our classroom. Later on our teacher reminded us of the agreements we'd all signed at the start of the course regarding conduct. Ray wasn't there, but neither was the American woman who sat next to him.
Turns out that the woman had seen Ray doodling swastikas in the corners of his pages and it began to make her uncomfortable. So uncomfortable that she eventually called the police, and declared that Ray should never be allowed to work with children again, as he is a neo-nazi and will be infecting their minds with fascist ideology. Or something along those lines. Our teacher had to give a statement to the police. He was sweating, because this didn't look good for his career. Ray never came back, but the American girl was back the next day as if nothing had happened.
In Buddhism, the swastika signifies the Buddha's heart and contains his whole mind. A lot of images of Buddha have swastikas printed on his palms, his arms and his chest. Often, a swastika will mark the beginning of a sacred Buddhist text, The Chinese and Japanese Buddhists see the swastika as a symbol of eternity and plurality, of togetherness. As if Hitler didn't suck enough already.

Knox Shoots 59 on Web.com Tour
Russell Knox became the second player in two weeks to fire a 59 on the Web.com Tour. The 28-year-old Scot carded that magical number in the second round of the Albertsons Boise Open at the par-71 Hillcrest Country Club in Boise, Idaho.
Starting on the back nine, Knox opened with three birdies and an eagle on the par-5 16th hole, making the turn in 5-under 30. On his home half, he reeled off five more birdies and his second eagle on the par-5 second for a 29.
Knox became the fifth player in the 24-year history of the PGA Tour's developmental circuit to shoot 59. His Friday score broke Hillcrest's course record by two strokes.
Just two weeks ago, Will Wilcox closed with a 59 in the Utah Championship at the par-70 Willow Creek Country Club in Sandy. Wilcox finished that tournament in third place at 21-under.
After opening with a 69, Knox's second-round score in Idaho vaulted him into the lead at 14-under 128, a stroke ahead of three players. Knox had a chance to go even lower, but parred the final two holes.

text: Howard Kurtz Practically Begs ESPN to Hire Keith Olbermann Back Print article Send a Tip by John Nolte 5 Mar 2013 post a comment The same Howard Kurtz who mercilessly ridiculed the idea that Fox News would hire the very successful and charismatic Herman Cain, today published a gushing love letter to the "ubertalented" Keith Olbermann that begged ESPN to re-hire him: I'm going to lead a chant: Let's Go Keith!! It would be great fun to see him holding forth again on sporting matters. Is the guy supposed to stay sidelined for the rest of his life, just because he's got a bit of a temper? Don't the fans of America deserve better? Olbermann is reportedly an absolute nightmare to work with, and his last gig at Current TV was a total ratings failure. (So much for "fans of America" missing him.) But Kurtz has enough time on his hands (you know, because the media is doing everything so perfect) and thinks enough of Olbermann to pen him an unsolicited letter of recommendation. I have an idea, Howie: Why doesn't the Daily Beast or Daily Download offer Olbermann a job? If you think he deserves another chance and miss him so much, why not see if you can't bring him aboard one of your ships so you can be the one to deal with him. Instead of pressuring an outlet that likely doesn't want to relive a nightmare, step up! Follow John Nolte on Twitter @NolteNC

The view from Ida Street bridge of Union Terminal, Music Hall, St. Paul Cathedral and many other beautiful buildings, embedded as they are in the tapestry of Over the Rhine, has been marred by the monotone big box that is Horseshoe Casino. The same monotone flanks of this huge addition to our city's north east corner greet travelers on I-71 Reading and Gilbert roads and the residence of Mt. Auburn. Now they want an 80-ft sign that jumps up like a dancer from a cake. It is an embarrassment for my profession of architecture when only the front facade of a building is thought through – more so when its hundreds of thousands of commercial square feet in the midst of a burgeoning mixed-use and historic area. Merely varying the color pallet on the building's multi-faceted and windowless flanks would have done the job. I urge readers to contact City Council and encourage deep attention to the built quality of our beautiful city.

Just some of my favourite quotes from one my favourite literary characters ever
i get really annoyed when people think its cute to be shy, because its not. everyone thinks your rude and antisocial and stuck up. being shy isnt a quirky personality trait, not being able to talk to a stranger without feeling like your going to throw up or cry isnt fun
There is no good and evil, there is only power and those too weak to seek it.

D-Harris Must Step Up with Watson Out
by Broox Anderson
RICHFIELD, UT — 8:20 A.M. — Jazz fan-favorite Earl Watson will undergo an MRI today (Thursday) to better diagnose the knee injury he suffered during Wednesday's game vs the Lakers. Watson, a strong leader on the court, is the type of player who compels his team to play better when he–a 6'1″ 10-year veteran–takes to the floor. Earl averaged 3.3 points and 4.3 assists in 20.3 minutes per game before he suffered a knee sprain on Wednesday.
Devin Harris and Jamaal Tinsley remain as the healthy point guards. Harris, noticeably struggling thus far, is a far cry from where he needs to be. Devin holds averages of 8.7 points, 4.5 assists, and a frightening 2.3 turnovers per game while shooting a field goal percentage of .347 and a three-point percentage of .324. Harris' stats have not been this atrocious since his rookie and sophomore years in the league.
We've all seen how Devin Harris can play–how he can put the ball on the floor and get to the rim, move the ball and orchestrate an offense, defend the ball with aggression, play with confidence, and fight for every win.
This year, though, it just isn't there. The competitiveness isn't there. The passion isn't there. There haven't even been glimpses of his former self!
Now, with Watson injured and no one else there to take the reigns, it's time for Devin Harris to step up.
The Jazz need more point production, ball movement, facilitation, leadership, and defense from Harris. On the other hand, Jamaal Tinsley now has a chance to prove himself. He'll be sorely needed at the backup point guard spot, and will have the opportunity to play with Jazz's youthful second unit.
It's sad to think about it, but maybe Watson's injury is just what the Jazz needed to push Harris back into form.

text: Gone South December 3, 2012 Issue Flight of the Dragonflies By Richard Preston Table of Contents The annual flight of the dragonflies goes mostly unnoticed, though it is one of the great migrations of flying creatures that occur across North America. The dragonfly is an exceptionally beautiful insect and a fierce carnivore. It has four wings that beat independently. This gives it an ability to maneuver in the air with superb dexterity. A dragonfly can put on a burst of speed, stop on a dime, hover, fly backward, and switch direction in a flash. This is a hunting behavior known as hawking. Dragonflies kill their prey in the air and eat it on the wing. They feed on aerial plankton, which consists of any sort of small living thing that happens to be aloft—mosquitoes, midges, moths, flies, ballooning spiders. Several species of dragonflies migrate in North America; one is the common green darner, which is about three inches long and has a wingspan of around four inches. It has a green thorax, a long abdomen of cerulean blue with a black stripe, clear wings, and bulging eyes the color of a Spanish olive. Green darners never attack people, but they have been seen bringing down hummingbirds. They are the Bengal tigers of the microworld. A dragonfly spends a large portion of its life underwater as a nymph, eating tiny aquatic animals. One day, the nymph climbs up on a twig and splits open, and an adult dragonfly called a teneral emerges. At the end of summer, tenerals fly south. They travel on sunny days just after a cold front has come through, riding on north winds. They go from Canada as far south as Veracruz, Mexico, covering as much as fifty miles a day. They have keen eyesight, and they follow topographical lines on the land—ridges, valleys, and especially shorelines. In North America, the main migration path of the green darners follows the Atlantic shoreline past New York City, but swarms of them are rarely spotted. In 1916, R. C. Osborn reported a swarm above Long Beach, on Long Island. In 1992, another darner swarm was spotted over Fire Island. That was it. "We don't know anything about what the dragonflies do when they get in the vicinity of the city," Michael L. May, a professor of entomology at Rutgers University, said. One day a few weeks ago, just after a cold front, he stood on a spit of land at the southern tip of the Verrazano Narrows, looking through binoculars. "You'd see them passing by one at a time, every minute or so," he said. He swivelled the binoculars toward Coney Island. "In all the years I've looked, I've only seen one mass dragonfly migration, in northern Florida." May spotted four saddlebag dragonflies—another migrator—hawking over goldenrod by the water. One of them landed on a bush and tilted its head, looking for prey. "They're very visual. They will turn their head and watch you as you approach," he said. "That's a youngish female. Her wings have no nicks on the edges, and her colors are very fresh." He thought she could be about a week old. The only other migrator spotted that day was a single monarch butterfly wobbling north like a lost drunk. Two weeks later, a second cold front rolled through the city, and the day dawned clear. May was busy, but another dragonfly buff returned to the spot by the Verrazano Bridge. After a minute, a green darner shot past at about fifteen miles an hour, its olive eyes fixed southward. Two more came by, riding the north wind. The dragonflies were coming straight out of Brooklyn. Just then, a text arrived from a picnicker in Prospect Park, urging him to get over there: "There are so many dragonflies at the park!" In Prospect Park, thousands of green darners were flashing in the sun everywhere you looked. They were moving through the Long Meadow, a grassy, undulant valley that runs through the park in a north-south direction, lined with trees on either side. The dragonflies were using the Long Meadow as a migration corridor. The park was full of people, too—friends lying on blankets, West Indian guys playing cricket. The dragonflies seemed wary of the people, while the people mostly didn't seem to be aware of the dragonflies. A guy was playing a trumpet under the Meadowpoint Arch, and green darners glittered above his horn. Two little boys ran around and pointed. "I never seen so many dragonflies!" one said. The green darners slashed and darted through pockets of still air, their wings making soft, crisp noises as they turned for prey. They swung up into the wind and hovered, then would rush forward and nail something that you couldn't see. Shoals of aerial plankton drifted in sunny spots near the Tennis House, where hundreds of dragonflies were coursing back and forth, engaged in a feeding frenzy, while midges danced like dust motes in the slanting light. "I think you were seeing a full-fledged migration, with feeding on the side," Michael May said, upon hearing the report later. He was excited. "A big dragonfly migration has never been reported in New York City, up until now." Back in Brooklyn, a green darner was hawking over the entrance to the Grand Army Plaza subway station. Another was hitting plankton twenty feet above Flatbush Avenue. Then a single green darner came drilling straight down Flatbush from the north, moving like a bullet, and vanished in the direction of Florida. ♦ Richard Preston Bio All work & You Might Like Jigsaw Puzzle Strongbox Submissions Goings On App About Us Caption Contest The New Yorker Festival ✕ The New Yorker Strongbox Strongbox is a new way for you to share information, messages, and files with our writers and editors and is designed to provide you with a greater degree of anonymity and security than afforded by conventional e-mail.

okay i probably forgot most of u on here but i miss y'all so much omg :(
"How shall I sum up my life? I think I have been particularly lucky. does that have something to do with faith also? I know my mother always used to say, 'Good things aren't supposed to just fall in your lap. God is very generous, but He expects you to do your part first.' so you have to make that effort. But at the end of a bad time or a huge effort, I've always had - how shall I say it? - the prize at the end. My whole life shows that." Audrey Hepburn (May 4, 1929 - January 20, 1993)
" If I could find a real-life place that made me feel like Tiffany's, then … then I'd buy some furniture and give the cat a name. "
"You know what's wrong with you, Miss Whoever-You-Are? You're chicken, you've got no guts. You're afraid to stick out your chin and say, "Okay, life's a fact, people do fall in love, people do belong to each other, because that's the only chance anybody's got for real happiness." You call yourself a free spirit, a wild thing, and you're terrified somebody's going to stick you in a cage. Well, baby, you're already in that cage. You built it yourself. And it's not bounded in the west by Tulip, Texas, or in the east by Somaliland. It's wherever you go. Because no matter where you run, you just end up running into yourself."
9 Favorite Portraits of Audrey Hepburn (1929-1993)
" Okay, whenever I hear or read that I'm beautiful, I simply don't understand it… I'm certainly not beautiful in any conventional way. I didn't make my career on beauty. "

Working Out With Kevin Seraphin
Checking in from the Atlanta airport (the people watching is great, as usual) on my way to Las Vegas for the NBA Summer League. I'll be out there covering John Wall and the rest of the Wiz Kids until the 18th. I know, a long time to be in Vegas. But I'm good at staying out of trouble.
On Friday Wizards assistants Mike Wells and Ryan Saunders took rookie Kevin Seraphin through an individual workout as he continues to rehab a previous knee injury that will keep him out of summer league action. The 20-year old from Cayenne, French Guiana officially became part of the Wizards on Thursday when the Kirk Hinrich and 17th pick (Seraphin) acquisition in exchange for Wizards 2006 second round draft pick Vladimir Veremeenko was completed. Glad the Wiz didn't give up a future second rounder.
Ernie Grunfeld spoke briefly about Seraphin on Thursday (covered in this post) and indicated that Seraphin's buyout from his club in the French League, Cholet Basket, still needs to be worked out, but that he plans to have him on the roster next season. Check out some clips from Seraphin's individual workout below … there are a couple dunks at the end. That shooting form needs a lot of work, but he sure is a wide-bodied player.
5 Comments
Hopefully he can develop properly. Would be a nice compliment to Wall.
Check out the potential fallout of LeBron, the trade for David Lee and upcoming NBA Summer League
He looks like he has a soft touch around the rim. Looks like a big strong kid and his jump shot wasn't all that bad. Hopefully he can continue to work on that low post game.
That turn around base line jumper was also impressive. And unlike brenda, looks like our boy can dunk with one hand. Here's hoping that we just landed the next star in a new generation of french ballers.
Looks better than Kwame Brown at the same point. O_o
Are you guys watching the same video as me? This guy looks exactly like Kwame, horrible. He has an awkward shot that will not make it in the NBA, far too slow. He looks like a power player, but is short. Around 3:20 he is barely getting to the rim, what is his vertical? Conditioning is lackluster as well. Seems powerful with decent touch in the post, VERY unpolished contrary to reports.

MAIZE, Kan. -- Maize Police are asking residents in some neighborhoods to be on the look out for nighttime vandals creating mischief.
It's happened in the Maize neighborhood along Plantation and Longbranch streets where in the past two weeks police have seen a 29% increase in what they call criminal mischief.
Brandi Kendall had noticed lights outside her bedroom window late at night recently. But when she and her husband went outside they found nothing. Then one morning she discovered four of her sidewalk landscape lights snapped off.
The lights weren't expensive but Kendall is still concerned.
"Yeah it's just a start, I don't know how far it's going to go within the block", Kendall said. "We have other things that are worth more value than lights, but, you know, it's still my stuff, don't mess with it."
Maize Police say some other problems in the area include graffiti and trash containers moved. Some residents think someone may have entered their garage or home through unlocked doors.
W.E. May has security cameras on his home and noticed some late night loitering. "Naturally, it concerns us you know, we don't want to be a victim", May said. "We don't want to have someone on our property and we're not aware of it. We definitely don't want to have to buy or replace anything that's stolen, any valuables."
Police Chief Matt Jensby said it appears juveniles are behind the mischief and the damage isn't extensive. But he said homeowners should protect their property.
"When people leave their vehicles open", Jensby said. "When their garage doors are open or items outside their home, of course, those are easy for somebody, just to walk by and pick up."
There is a curfew for juveniles in Maize from July first through August 31st from 11 pm to 6 am and on Fridays it's midnight to 6 am. Chief Jensby said if residents see anything suspicious call 911.

Nando Asti Spumante
Nando - Piedmont - Italy - Asti
The Muscat grape has been grown and cultivated for centuries all over Europe, and in more recent years has become something of a flagship varietal for many New World countries. It is widely admired for its versatility and for the fact that it can be successfully used for the production of many different styles and types of wine. In eastern and central Europe, it is most commonly associated with elegant sweet dessert wines, further west it is used for bright and strong dry white wines, and it is also famous for the superb sparkling wines it produces, full of elegant bubbles and a mineral-rich flavor which compliments its natural 'grapey' character. Muscat grapes are generally agreed to be one of the oldest varietals in the world, and this goes some way to explaining the seemingly vast differences the fruit shows in various parts of the world.
n Italy, the region most closely associated with excellent quality red wines and characterful sparkling wines is Piedmont. This alpine region is located in the north-west of the country, and features beautiful foothills of the impressive mountain range which forms the nearby border between Italy, France and Switzerland. Wineries in Piedmont work with the Nebbiolo, Dolcetto and Barbera grapes which thrive in the warm, dry summers and cooler autumns, as well as the beautifully expressive Moscato grapes which are used for the sparkling Asti wines the region is famed for. For generations, these wineries have perfected the art of aging their red wines, and blending grape varietals to get the most out of each one, leading to a region known all over the world for the exceptional quality of its produce.
It isn't difficult to understand why Italy is famed not just for the quality of its wines, but also for the vast variety and range of characteristics found in the wines there. The terrain of the country varies wildly, from the lush rolling green hills and valley of Tuscany, to the sun drenched rocky coasts of Sicily, the mountainous and alpine regions of the north, and the marshy lowlands of the east. Italy really does have a little bit of everything. Combine this huge range of landscapes with an almost perfect climate for grape cultivation, and you have a country seemingly designed for viticultural excellence. The results speak for themselves, and it is clear to see that wine has become an inseparable part of Italian culture as a result of its abundance and brilliance. Each village, city and region has a local wine perfectly matched with the cuisine of the area, and not an evening passes without the vast majority of Italian families raising a glass of locally sourced wine with pride and pleasure.

relax and wait during the first 5 days
- myladylana
- 2 years ago
Hello, I just wanted to reintegrate the fact that some of you are freaking out to soon. Please before you write, just wait the 5 days so the pigment will have time to settle down. Then if you are still not happy then write. I want to answer each and everyone of you but most of the time its just a matter of me telling you the same thing over and over WAIT THE 5 DAYS AND then write. It will save me a lot of time. Also at the time you write me, please have posted a review with photos, that way I can see exactly if there is a problem and how to fix it. Thank you, Lana Davis

I would just do it. I am a nurse too...and I have seasonal allergies, and my eyes water a lot when using the computer at work..I love my permanent eyeliner!
I am looking into getting permanent eyeliner but keep doubting my decision. I'm a nurse and a runner...I dont wear makeup when I'm just at home so I'm nervous I may not like it all the time, but I do like myself when I do put it on....any suggestions?

Delmar Lace & Old Doilies
I have a few crazed, chippy, faded pieces of Delmar Lace by Royal China. Although they are crazed, chippy and faded, I love them. I've used some old Homer Laughlin plates as chargers. They are in about the same condition as the Royal pieces.
No romantic story behind them, just thrifty finds. Although they do remind me of dishes that my great-grandmother had. I remember spending a few days at her house as a teenager....just her and I. She lived several hundred miles from where we lived and we only saw her once a year or so. She left quite an impression on me though. My oldest daughter, Jessica, is named for her. When I stayed with Grandma Jessie, she was in her 90's (she was born in 1885) and still living on her own. During that stay, we had tea in the evenings in her dishes. These old dishes do remind me of that time. Oh, I guess there is a little romance in these thrifty dishes.
I wish I had a full set but alas, I only have a few pieces....4 cups & saucers, 6 small dessert bowls and 8 small dessert plates. Enough for a dessert setting for 4.
I shopped the house to complete the tablescape. Pink crepe paper flowers. As a girl, I loved crepe paper...it made the most fun things.
Vintage relish bowls hold the crepe paper roses.
Vintage ercu napkins with crocheted edging matches the tea stained runner.
Old textile spools hold votive candles.
Old mismatched silver plate fork & spoon at the ready for eating dessert.
Pretty pink roses bringing out the faded pink of the dishes.
I have a confession. Last summer I saw the sweetest blog post (cannot remember who's) where old china plates were used to edge a flower bed. I decided I wanted to do that, but once I started picking up old plates, I didn't have the heart to set them outside. Aren't I a sap?...oh, well, the way I see it, these still have a few parties left in them!
Sharing at Tablescape Thursday, Vintage Thingie Thursday and Pink Saturday.

Love hearing about you and your great grandma, what cherished memories. I agree with you about the plates...too much beauty to put in the garden. Flowers are beauty enough
Faith said...:
So lovely a table you have set for us. Elegant and vintage...Shall I bring some scones?
Olive Cooper said...:
The runner is beautiful and I am very fond of crazing on old china. It just feels loved and right to me. Better than being crazed myself♥
Faith said...:
beautiful memories of a sweet lady, what a wonderful way to remember her.

I love how you used the spools! That china is so beautiful, ageless!
I got my first doily the other day, a customer of ours (who is 96) made it for me.
Laura Wilkerson said...:
Love the table runner and that's a great idea! I've done the same thing with old single, chipped and cracked dishes....saved them thinking i'd break them completely down and make a mosaic side table out of them but I just don't have the heart.
Have a great week and hope you're staying warm!

What a beautiful table to come from such wonderful memories. I agree, it would be very difficult to put those in the yard (even though the idea sounds great). Blessings!
Kathleen said...:
That was lovely! And the doilies and napkins are just beautiful.
I couldn't put those pretty dishes outside either. I'd have to find some old chippy ones at a yard sale!
Very sweet post. My gparents died before I was 9, so I don't have too many memories. I hope my gkids will have some good ones of me. Not just yelling at them to stop jumping on the couch! :)

Ann said...:
I love what you did with the doilies. You certainly set a very beautiful table. The spools are a very neat idea.
Pat transplanted to MN said...:

Prince Philip leaves hospital after treatment
August 20, 2012, Monday/ 13:24:00
Buckingham palace says Prince Philip has left hospital after successful treatment for a bladder infection.
The 91-year-old husband of Queen Elizabeth II was hospitalized Wednesday after suffering a recurrence of an infection for which he was treated earlier this summer.
The palace said Philip was discharged from Aberdeen Royal Infirmary in Scotland on Monday and was returning to the nearby Balmoral estate, where the royal family is on vacation.
It was Philip's third hospital stay in the last eight months. He was hospitalized for five days in June with a bladder infection that may have been aggravated by his appearance at a flotilla marking the queen's 60-year reign.

GreatSchools Rating
Teacher quality
Principal leadership
Parent involvement
This is the first year my children have attended University Place Elementary. My oldest is in third grade and my youngest is in kindergarten. I have reviewed what they are learning and I am very happy with the academics. The teachers go out of their way for their students and give 110%.
this is the first year my child has attended University Place Elementary and,well frankly, my wife and I are disappointed. Even from the first day when we set foot in the school there has been this..dred about the place. The lack of natural light and sense of depressed age; one of the most grumpiest office workers I have ever meet, along with the time his teacher never checked his folder to read the bus update we sent, which resulted in my child been left at the school, alone sitting in the office for about an 45 mins to a hour! Now this review obviously is based on our experience and I'm sure ours is not the norm, I hope.
I do not know what you are talking about. The school is on lock down and you can not just walk in. The principal is also very nice. Also the Space program is good.
I do not like this school at all! My son is advanced and has not learned one single thing in the first semester. I would like to pull him out and home school him rather than be somewhere and learn nothing ( but I am a working parent, like alot of ppl.). I am having to look for a new home just to change schools. Hunt. City Schools is not interested in helping me in any way to transfer my child. I have encountered the principal on several occasions and she has not said hello, nodded or anything, I feel as though I am not welcome. none of the doors are locked and anyone can walk in. Every morning there are parents in halls, I have never signed in when visiting, I just walk right in. I am sorry any child should have to have this type of 'education' in america.
I love University School because I have worked here for almost 21 years and in that time we remain a topnotch school. We have just recently merged with another school and have doubled our student body and teacher units and still remain on top of our curriculum goals and we are 'academically clear.' We have one of the largest ELL populations in the city and we are a title one school. The students and parents work hard at this school as well as the faculty and staff.
I think that this is a great school overall and I am enjoying the school year as much as my son is. I have personally met his homeroom teacher and she is awesome. I haven't gotten around to meeting his other teachers, but I will be doing that really soon. GREAT SCHOOL!
