Before squeezing into our seats at Mary Katrantzou's packed-out third catwalk season, we had a sneaky peek backstage, where we found her team still frantically sewing on crystals and taking in seams. We scurried back to our seats, a little worried that the collection might never make it out in time. But our fears proved to be unfounded. The first look was such a sudden explosion of colour and print that anyone still sleepy from the fashion parties of the night before would have instantly felt wide awake.
A vibrant swirling intergalactic printed shift dress, it set the tone for the collection. For Summer 2010, Mary K is all about psychedelic waves, asymmetric hems and crystal-encrusted detailing (each crystal had to be hand-sewn, so at least six people were working on each piece, hence the last minute meltdown backstage). Katrantzou is also moving on from her simple shift shapes; the time bustier dresses were swathed in organza, a new fabric for the Greek designer to play with. And dresses with sexy back and thigh slits, continued the strong for trend for cut-outs already coming through for next season.
To finish off the collection's glorious rainbow of colour, shoe goddess Charlotte Olympia daubed sandals with nail polish (we've done that before, but never as a design statement..)
And for a final wake-up call, gigantic Venetian-style glass jewellery popped against Katrantzou's eye-boggling fabrics.
If anything will get the fash pack out of black layers, this is it.

Back to the future: Berlin reconsiders fossil fuels
Germany is debating how to generate its electricity in the coming decades. After the Fukushima disaster, German voters made it clear they wanted to close the country's nuclear reactors. However, this means coming up with a substitute for nuclear power fast, since Germany currently relies on nuclear power for nearly a quarter of its electricity needs. Now, it seems, they may just have found the answer.

River of Doubt - The Source
I've started a new sweater named
River of Doubt
. It's come together from a lot of different sources:
I wanted to make a sweater with contiguous sleeves.
I wanted to make a sweater with triangle-y knit-purl design.
I have had 12 skeins of this yarn in my stash for ... a long time.
I had just purchased the book "River of Doubt" and it matched the color of the yarn and the gist of the design. I recommend the book, by the way.
My birthday was coming up and I was in my normal "what does the future hold" mindset, just like Roosevelt before his journey in "River of Doubt."
I bought the pattern for
Crazy Stripes Tee
because I like the neckline (and would eventually like to make that sweater). I followed the directions for the top-down, seamless, contiguous set in sleeves. So fantastic!
I had to chart every row of the front, back, and sleeves so I could figure out where the diamond and chevron stripes should be so that they'd all line up once I got to the armpits and started knitting the body in the round. That took quite a bit of work.
And, about the time I got to the armpits, I realized I was making a sweater 3 sizes too big. My normal ... haha. So I frogged the whole thing, redrew the charts, and now things are moving much faster!
Here are photos of my progress over the last couple of months:

Bermuda Triangle on Vacation
I made the sweater
Bermuda Triangle
(ravelry link) specifically to wear with this skirt on our vacation in LA this October. I assumed that it would be cool and a little extra warmth up-top would be needed to balance out this short skirt. Who knew that we'd visit right in the middle of a 90-degree October heatwave?!
Luckily, the sweater is cotton, so it was comfortable in spite of the heat. It was also nice that I departed from my normal tight-fitting hip-length sweater silhouette and created a billowy cropped top to show off the swingy skirt.
This is one of my favorite outfits now: a bright cropped sweater and a short swingy skirt with pockets. Never in a million years would I have guessed that I would even wear this combo. Live and learn!

Golden - Finished!
I realized recently that I never posted an "I'm finished!" photo of this sweater, so I staged a mini photo shoot at the park. Golden took forever to make, but it was worth every stitch. I wear it to work once a week with this great purple v-neck. That's the only thing good about
chilly San Francisco summers
- perfect cardigan weather.
I love wearing this sweater. It's comfy and stylish. Those increase eyelets make it look designer. People complement the sweater all the time. If it's extra cold on my walk to work, I wrap the front wings over my chest and secure them with the strap of my cross-body bag. This pattern is highly recommended!

Bermuda Triangle
Somehow, I started and finished a sweater before I could even mention it to you! I still have to weave in the ends of
Bermuda Triangle
(ravelry link), but that's it. I hope to take some finished shots of it this weekend. I made it to match a new skirt because I was having a hell of a time trying to find a matching top. Woohoo!

Mini Road Trips
For the last couple of summers, instead of taking one big summer vacation, once a month we rent a car for a long weekend and drive somewhere nearby. We have discovered so many amazing natural treasures within a day's drive of San Francisco.
This month we went to
Owen's Valley
and saw Devil's Postpile, Panam Crater, Alabama Hills, and (on a whim?!) drove back home across the entire length of Yosemite. Seriously amazing.
full-sized images here
When I first started
this sweater
I googled the name of the yarn color, basalt. I learned about a spectacular form of basalt, called columnar basalt that is lava that cracks into hexagons as it cools. This is what lead me to name my sweater Fractured.
When I discovered that we had a columnar basalt formation within a day's drive, I knew we had to go see it. That formation is a National Monument called
Devils Postpile
. We hiked out to it as the sun was coming up. Such a great way to start the day!
The formation is striking from below, where you can see the columns rising up ~60 feet into the sky. Then you can hike up to the top of the pile to see the hexagon tops of the columns. Bonus: there is a spectacular view of the valley below from the top.
Black bears are common at Devils Postpile, but luckily we didn't see any since we had enough
black bear sightings
on last month's hike to last us a lifetime.
This is a public domain photo of the Panum Craterfrom overhead.
full-sized images here
Panum Crater
is an inactive volcano that is around 650-years-old. You read that right, 650-years-old. That means this volcano was erupting around the time the bubonic plague was devastating Europe.
Please note, if you plan on visiting, there is a weather cycle here near Mono Lake which brings 30-mile-an-hour winds around 3 PM. Ask me how I know ... haha. We hiked the entire rim trail (that outer circle in the top photo), part of the crater between the rim and the plug, and the plug. All in 30-mile-an-hour winds. When I wasn't taking phontos, I was literally holding my sun hat with both hands to keep it on. My arms were more sore than my legs after that hike!
The rim is made of loose pumice rocks about the size of ping pong balls. The plug is made of majestic spires of obsidian. Both pumice and obsidian are the same rock cooled at different speeds. In my photos above are some chunks of striped pumice *and* obsidian. So beautiful The floor of the plug is full of broken shards of obsidian so it sounds like you're hiking through broken glass ... and I guess you kind of are.
full-sized images here
Alabama Hills
is right outside of Lone Pine, CA. It's otherwordly! In fact, it was used as a set for other planets in the movie Star Trek Generations and the show Firefly. Over 150 movies and a dozen TV shows have been filmed here.
The day we visited, we saw a couple other cars and two people. It was quiet and beautiful. We hiked and climbed and marveled. As you move through the rock formations, they morph and change. So many hidden wonders!
full-sized images here
On our normal route home, we pass through the city Lee Vining which happens to be where the "back" entrance of Yosemite on 120. We stopped to get drinks at the gas station and thought, "Hey, why not drive back through
Yosemite National Park?"
I'd never been to Yosemite and Andrew went once about 16 years ago. We'd been avoiding it because you hear horror stories of people in 3-hour car queues just to get into parking lots. But it didn't seem like there were a lot of people driving in and out of the 120 intersection with 395, so we went ahead and drove in.
It was a beautiful day. Andrew convinced me to stop on a couple heart-attack-inducing turn offs that had us perched on the edge of cliffs. We stopped in Yosemite Valley and went for a couple hikes to see Half Dome, Mirror Lake (which had almost no water), and El Capitan. Hands down, it was the best drive home from a trip, ever!

Fractured Arms
Just in case you don't already know, this sweater's name is Fractured. :) I didn't want you to worry I'd hurt myself!
One sleeve takes a little more than one skein of yarn.
I have a couple more rows to do of the left arm (the one on the right in the photo). I
the body and will try it on after it is dry* to see if I need to frog back to the waist and redo the hip increases sooner. (please. god. no.)
*Or at some time in the future when I have the fortitude to handle the (potential) news that I have months-more work ahead of me to complete a sweater I started in January 2013.

Tutorial: Make a Ribbon Strap for the Lucky Wristlet
This is the photo tutorial for making a ribbon strap for the Lucky Wristlet.
The tutorial is broken down, step-by-step. Let me know if something isn't clear. I will be happy to help you out.
Detailed instructions
(text is above its corresponding photo)
1. You'll need a crocheted Lucky Wristlet using my
free PDF crochet pattern
and one yard of ribbon.
2. Find the side of your wristlet that doesn't have a spike crochet "belt loop" for your ribbon. This side has a spike.
3. This side does not have a spike. This is the strap side.
4. Fold your ribbon end so you can easily thread it through the first spike stitch.
5. Keep threading your ribbon under the spike stitches ...
6. ... until you've gone all the way around. Adjust the ribbon so both loose ends are the same length.
7. Take one ribbon end and wrap it around the other ribbon end.
8. Make a simple knot.
9. Pull the knot tightly against the wristlet.
10. Here is what the strap looks like with the first knot completed.
11. The other strap is now longer than the knotted strap.
12. Take the longer strap and wrap it around the shorter strap.
13. Make a simple knot near the end.
14. Pull the knot tightly.
15. We are going to finish the ribbon ends now.
16. Trim both ends on a diagonal. I trim them separately, not at the same time.
17. Here they are trimmed.
18. I use Fray Check™ to secure the threads at the end of the ribbon so they don't fray and look a mess.
19. The strap is done.
20. Now you can use your wristlet.

Tutorial: Make a Zippered Lining for the Lucky Wristlet
This is the photo tutorial for making a zippered lining for the Lucky Wristlet.
The tutorial shows, step-by-step how to make a zippered lining for the Lucky Wristlet. Let me know if something isn't clear. I will be happy to help you!
Detailed instructions
(text is above its corresponding photo)
1. You'll need a crocheted Lucky Wristlet using my
free PDF crochet pattern
, fabric for the lining, and a zipper that is about 3 inches longer (or more) than your wristlet.
2. To figure out the size of the fabric pieces you need to cut, you need to measure your wristlet. Measure the width of the inside opening. In this photo, my interior wristlet width is 7.5"
3. Measure the inside height from the middle of the bottom of the wristlet to to row where you will sew in the lining. In this photo, my interior wristlet height is 4".
4. NOTE: If you modified your wristlet to have depth by adding bottom rows, you will still measure your wristlet as described. The change you will make to accommodate the depth is to square off the bottom corners to remove the extra fabric at each side. I'll remind you below.
5. Cut fabric:
- - 2 pieces that are [width + 1"] by [height + 1"]. My pieces are 8.5" by 5".
- - 1 piece that is 5.25" by 4.5" to make a credit-card-sized pocket
6. Place the pocket fabric face down on your ironing board. The 5.25" edges are the top and bottom. The 4.5" edges are the right and left sides. Fold up 1/2" from the bottom edge, right sides together. Iron along the fold.
7. Fold the top edge down so that the folded bottom edge is about 1/4" longer than the top edge. Pin the sides.
8. Sew a 1/2" seam on the right and left sides starting from the fold and going toward the open edge.
9. Trim off the corners of the seam allowance. This will reduce bulk when you turn this inside-out.
10. Turn the pocket inside-out. Use a crochet hook or knitting needle to push out the corners. Iron flat. This is the front side.
11. This is the back side. The opening is the bottom edge of the pocket.
12. Sew across the top of the pocket 1/4" below the top edge.
13. Hide the thread ends on the inside of the pocket. See steps 19-22 for details about hiding threads.. Set aside the pocket for later.
14. Place one of the lining pieces face down on your ironing board. The long edges are the top and bottom. The short edges are the right and left sides. Fold down 1/2" from the top edge, wrong sides together. Iron along the fold.
15. For edges this long which need ironing, I like to make the fold, pin the fold with long pins, then iron. I let the fold cool before unpinning.
16. Repeat steps 13 and 14 with the other lining piece.
17. Pin the pocket to one of the lining pieces. Be sure that the lining piece fold is at the top and the stitching line of the pocket is at the top. The bottom of the pocket should be about 1" above the bottom edge of the lining piece.
18. Sew a 1/4" seam along the right, left, and bottom edges. Hide the threads on the back of the lining piece. See steps 19-22 for details about hiding threads.
19. These are two thread ends.
20. Thread one onto a sewing needle. Pull the thread to the back of the lining piece. Do this for the other corner thread, too.
21. Tie the threads together on the back side to secure them.
22. Here is the neat front view once the threads are pulled to the back.
23. Lay the the lining pieces on top of each other right-sides-together. Pin the sides together.
24. Be sure the two ironing lines at the tops of the pieces line up before you pin the sides.
25. Sew a 1/2" seam on the right and left sides starting from the fold and going toward the open edge.
26. Iron the seam allowance open.
27. Trim the corners off the seam allowance at the top. This will reduce bulk when we fold down the top edge.
28. Fold down the top edge along the ironing lines with the side seams still open (to reduce bulk). Iron the top edge again.
29. Here's a peek inside the lining at this stage.
30. Sew around the top of the lining 1/4" from the top. Start in a side seam, sew all the way around, ...
31. ... and end at the same point in the side seam.
32. Hide your threads. See steps 19-22 for details about hiding threads.
33. Look how neat that is!
34. Here's another peek at the inside of the lining
35. Turn the lining inside out.
36. Measure 1/2" from the side seam ...
37. ... and place one side of the open zipper so the teeth start right at the 1/2" mark. The zipper teeth should be right along your stitching line (1/4" from the top).
38. Pin in one side of the open zipper.
39. Sew zipper in. Start 1/2" from one edge to 1/2" before the next edge. I use my regular zipper foot so that my stitching isn't too close to the zipper teeth.
40. Measure 1/2" from the side seam on the other side of the lining. Pin in open zipper.
41. Be sure you haven't twisted up your open zipper before you sew in the second side. When you unzip the zipper that the should teeth point upwards. When you zip the zipper, they should come down and meet in the middle of the bag opening.
42. Sew zipper in. Start 1/2" from one edge to 1/2" before the next edge.
43. The zipper is now sewn in.
44. Turn the lining inside out.
45. Zip up the zipper.
46. Trim the end of your zipper so it's 2.5" longer than your bag.
47. Like this.
48. Now, very carefully, unzip the zipper so the zipper head is in that last 2.5 inches, but don't unzip completely because your zipper head will come right off the zipper and that would be bad.
49. Tuck the 2.5" end of the zipper into the inside of the lining.
50. Zip the zipper back up.
51. The zipper is done! If you have a very loose zipper and you're afraid the zipper head will slip down when you have the wristlet open, you can sew a zipper stop across the teeth at the edge of the bag. See the section on "
Adjusting Zipper Length
" in this post at TECHknitting.
52. Flatten your lining and pin the bottom closed. Sew a 1/2" seam across the bottom of the lining. The stitching you can see in this image is back side of the pocket.
53. Trim the right and left corners of the seam allowance at the bottom right and bottom left corners.
54. NOTE: If you modified your wristlet to have depth by adding bottom rows, this is the point where you'll want to square off the bottom edge of your lining. You can see what that entails in my
Starling Handbag LiningTutorial
steps 7, 8 and 9. Once you fold over the edge in step 8, measure across the triangle perpendicular to the seam. When you find the spot where the measurement matches the depth of your bag, that's where you'd stitch as shown in step 9. Then trim off the excess fabric.
55. Put your finished lining into the crocheted wristlet.
56. With the zipper open, the zipper head should be on the side with no spike crochet stitch.
57. See? There is no spike crochet stitch on the edge here.
I have a very detailed tutorial for
sewing in a lining for a Starling Handbag
. Instead of making you go back and forth between these two tutorials, I'm going to borrow images from that tutorial to illustrate a couple things below. Don't be confused by the different crochet colors and lining.
58. Find the crochet row where you will be sewing the lining into the wristlet. Pin in the lining. For the wristlet, it should be the very top row. Be sure the right and left edges of your wristlet are aligned with the left and right edges of your lining.
59. I marked the rows with red Vs to show you the stitches you'll be sewing the lining to. You will only have rows that look like this if you crocheted back and forth (which you should have done). You'll be using the one I'm pointing at, which is the top row of single crochet.
60. Cut a length of thread that is 3 times the width of your wristlet.
61. Thread your needle and knot the thread. This
knotting tutorial
is awesome.
60. Come out of the top edge of your lining right at a spot that lines up with the right side of one of those Vs. This will hide the knot between the lining and your wristlet.
61. Here it is from the front. See that the thread is right between two of the Vs.
62. Make a stitch behind the two vertical bars of the crochet stitch V.
63. You are just catching the two vertical bars. Do not go through the crochet to the outside of the bag. This part is not an exact science. You don't have to get *all* of the yarn in the vertical bars ... just most of it.
64. Pull the needle and thread through.
65. Pull tight.
66. Put the needle into your lining so it's inside the top fold and comes out right at the edge of the next set of vertical bars. The needle is sandwiched inside the fold of the fabric. I do not go through both pieces of folded fabric. If you looked behind the needle, between the lining and the bag, you wouldn't see the back side of the needle because it's inside the folded fabric. I've said the same thing four times here because I'm trying to be clear, because it is a tricky thing to explain in words.
67. Pull the thread through.
68. Make a stitch behind the next set of vertical bars.
69. Pull the thread through.
70.Pull your stitches tightly as you go. When the stitches are pulled tightly, your lining will looked tucked into the crochet.
71. When you get back to where you started, go back through the first couple of stitches you made. To make my final knot, I put my needle through some yarn between two Vs ...
72. ... wrap the end of the thread around the needle three times ...
73. ... and pull the thread through the wraps to create a knot.
74. I hide the knot by pulling my needle and thread behind the lining.
75. Take ahold of the thread end ...
76. ... and pull it to hide the knot behind the lining. Trim the thread end.
77. Here is the wristlet lining after being sewn in.
78. And you're done! Time to
add the ribbon strap

Tutorial: Crochet a Lucky Wristlet
This is the photo tutorial for crocheting my Lucky Wristlet pattern.
The tutorial is broken down by each teeny-tiny step. Let me know if something isn't crystal clear to you. I will be happy to help you out.
First things first:
download the PDF pattern for the Lucky Wristlet
Detailed instructions
(text is above its corresponding photo)
1. Gather your supplies: yarn, ribbon, and your crochet hook. I highly recommend doing a gauge swatch, but it's not required. For this project, size isn't a concern, but you might want to make sure the fabric your yarn-hook combo makes will work for the wristlet you're imaging (not too thin, thick, etc).
Don't be confused by the yellow ribbon. I originally thought I'd use the yellow, but I ultimately decided to use the blue you see in the top photo. Luckily, grosgrain ribbon comes in standardized widths in a wide range of colors so it was easy to find the blue I wanted in a 1" width to swap with the yellow.
2. Start the foundation row of foundation single crochet (FSC) stitches. Never done FSC stitches before? Learn how from my
FSC Tutorial
After a I make a couple of FSC, I always put a stitch marker in the top and bottom of the first FSC. In the photo, I have put a pink stitch marker in the top of the FSC and a green stitch marker in the bottom or the FSC.
3. Once I'm done with the FSC foundation row, I put a stitch marker in the top and bottom of the last FSC. In the photo, I have put a blue stitch marker in the top of the FSC and a yellow stitch marker in the bottom or the FSC.
4. Chain 1.
5. Turn your work clockwise (without moving or letting go of your crochet hook). Look at the photo above. Look at the photo below. Just flip your work from right to left.
6. Now we are starting Row 1. Make 3 single crochet stitches in the top of the FSC closest to your crochet hook. If you are using the stitch markers like I am, then it will have a stitch marker in it. The stitch marker for this stitch in the photo is a blue paper clip.
7. Make single crochet stitches across the foundation row in the tops of the FSC stitches. Move the stitch marker up to the middle (aka 2nd) single crochet of the corner stitch. This is useful if you need to recount stitches because something is off later.
8. When you get to the last FSC stitch, you will make another corner (3 single crochets) in the top of it. That will be in the stitch with the pink stitch marker.
9. Make one ...
10. ... two ...
11. ... three single crochet stitches in the top of the first FSC of the foundation row to make a corner.
12. Chain one. Move the stitch marker to the middle (2nd) of the three corner single crochets.
13. See the single strand of yarn over my hook? That's yarn that goes across the center of the FSC row. When you make the single crochets across, make them around the single yarn and the bottom of the FSC stitches.
14. Make a one ...
15. ... two ...
16. ... three single crochets in the bottom of the first FSC of the foundation row to make a corner.
17. Move the stitch marker to the middle (2nd) of the three corner single crochets. You can see that single strand of yarn between the top and bottom of the FSC stitches. Just be sure to stitch around it as you go across so it's caught in your single crochet.
18. Single crochet across.
19. When you get to the bottom of the last FSC, you're going to make another corner where the yellow stitch marker is.
20. Make one ...
21. ... two ...
22. ... three single crochets in the bottom of the last FSC to make a corner.
23. Move the stitch marker to the middle (2nd) of the three corner single crochets.
24. Now we are going to connect the end and beginning of this row with a slip stitch. This is a seamless single crochet technique that I came up with. If you aren't familiar with it or if you'd like to learn how to do joggles color changes take a look at my
seamless single crochet tutorial
Put your hook in the top of the first stitch of the row and yarn over.
25. To complete the slip stitch, pull the yarn-over through the top of the first single crochet and through the loop that was on your hook.
26. Now we're starting Row 2. Chain one.
27. To turn your work clockwise, keep your hook in your right hand, use your left hand to spin your work so the right edge moves toward you then to the left.
If this isn't making sense to you, take a look at where the yellow and blue stitch markers are in photos 26, 27, and 28 ... they are moving as the work is turning clockwise. Just imitate the images.
28. Turned successfully!
29. Now, we are going to skip the slipstitch we just made and make a single crochet into the last single crochet of Row 1. We're also going to make that single crochet into the farthest (back) loop of that single crochet.
In this photo, I've put my hook into the back loop of the last single crochet. See how putting the stitch market into the middle of that corner helps me see which stitch I should be crocheting in?
30. Finish the single crochet around the back loop.
31. Make the next single crochet through the back loop. Move the stitch marker to that stitch. Keep moving the stitch markers up every row. They come in handy when pinning in the zippered lining.
32. Keep single crocheting around in the back loop. There will be a nice edge around the bottom of your wristlet created by the front loop that is getting left behind.
33. This is the last single crochet of the row.
34. Put your hook into the top of the first single crochet of the row.
35. Complete the slip stitch by yarning over and pulling it through the single crochet and the loop on your hook.
36. Now we are starting Row 3. Chain one.
37. Turn your work clockwise.
38. Turned!
39. Skip the slip stitch you just made and single crochet in the last stitch of the previous row. For this row (and all subsequent rows) you will single crochet under both loops of the stitches of the previous row.
40. Single crochet around. Keep moving the corner stitch markers up each row.
41. The sides will start building upwards. Go back to step 33 until you get to Row 16.
42. Here I'm finishing up Row 16
43. Here's what the inside of your wristlet should look like at this point.
44. Row 17 has been started and we've chained one, turned the work clockwise, and made one SC. Here's where things get exciting!
45. You are going to make a "spike single crochet" stitch. It will serve as a "belt loop" for your ribbon strap. Make a guess about how many rows down you should make your spike stitch and count down the rows from the yellow stitch marker. I need to go down 3 rows to accommodate my 1-inch ribbon.
46. I've put my hook into my wristlet 3 rows below the current stitch (the one with the yellow stitch marker).
47. Yarn over.
48. Pull the loop through your work.
49. Stretch the loop up to the current row's height. It's important to make sure the loop that was already on your hook is still tight and didn't get stretched out.
50 Yarn over.
51. Complete your single crochet.
52. Move the stitch marker up. Make the next single crochet.
53. This would be a good time to make sure your ribbon fits in the spike stitch the way you'd like it to fit.
54. Perfect! Not too much space to slip around and not too little space so that it's buckled.
55. Make the next single crochet.
56. Make another spike single crochet the same height as your first one.
57. Often, my spike single crochet "spikes" have strands that are twisted around each other, like here in this photo.
58. I use a plastic yarn needle to gently straighten them out so they look neater.
59. Row 17 complete with spike stitches straightened.
60. Row 18 is just like Row 3-16 - single crochet around the wristlet. This is a photo showing the inside of the bag as I crochet Row 18
61. This is a photo of me crocheting Row 19 showing the outside of the wristlet.
62. This is the last single crochet of Row 19. We are going to do what I call
weaving in the last end
(that's a link to my tutorial).
63. Take your hook out of the loop and pull the yarn to make a huge loop.
64. Cut the end of the yarn coming from your skein and the pull the loop so the cut end goes through the top of the last single crochet.
65. Closeup of the side.
66. Closeup of the top.
67. Thread this tail onto a yarn needle, then put the needle under the top two strands of the first single crochet of this row. It's the same place you would have put your crochet hook if you were going to make a slip stitch.
68. Put the needle into the top of the last single crochet where the yarn strand starts.
69. Pull on the yarn end to tighten it up.
70. Keep tightening it until it looks like the top of all your other single crochet stitches.
71. Weave the end under several rows of stitches and then knot the yarn to your wristlet to secure. Your knot will be hidden under the zippered lining.
72. If needed, pull the beginning yarn end into the inside of your wristlet with a crochet hook. Mine are always on the outside.
73. Catch the yarn end ...
74. ... and pull it inside.
75. Done! You have finished the crocheting portion of this project. Now it's time to
sew the lining

Not everyone needs an elaborate security setup. If you're looking for a peek at your home while away from home, Dropcam promises to make it pretty easy.
The company just announced the Dropcam HD. This super-small camera provides a nice peek at your home from any web-enabled computer or mobile device. Even better, it promises to make those peeks very easy.
According to the company, the setup should be completed in about 60 seconds. Decide where you want to place the Dropcam and plug it in. Then, select your Wi-Fi network and personalize it. That's about it.
The Dropcam HD camera can deliver 720p H.264 video using AES 256-bit encryption. Promising automated night vision, it can work in both day and night conditions. Also, after the setup process is complete, it doesn't need any type of assistance from your computer—which doesn't even need to be on to use the device.
Real-time viewing is free, and includes email and text alerts. If you don't find yourself peeking in every three seconds (or don't want to), Dropcam also offers a cloud-based DVR feature. For $9.95 per month, you can score the Plus option and 7 days of storage. The Pro version of the plan bumps DVR storage up to 30 days of full-motion video for a monthly fee of $29.95.
Expect the Dropcam HD to start shipping in March. However, the device is currently available for preorder, for $149.

With three displays in the main portion of this house at 50 inches or larger, even with a 61-inch plasma this pool house didn't get used much for viewing.
Now, thanks to the help of Southern California-based custom electronics pro Future Home, that's quite opposite the case. The pool house might be the home's coolest hangout area—four LCD TVs and a projection screen will do that.
"There was no compelling reason to venture out to the isolated building," Future Home's Murray Kunis says of the original pool house layout. "So the homeowner called a meeting to see what could be done to turn this into a destination [and decided], well let's combine [the] love of sports, movies and sports memorabilia all into one venue."
The existing fireplace/plasma wall was removed and replaced with a custom wall holding four 52-inch Planar HD LCD panels. Above are three Sonance full-range main speakers and dual sub-woofers below behind the wood grills.
Each panel has its own dedicated HD DVR DirecTV satellite receiver, and using a Crestron video distribution each TV can also independently select the Blu-ray or Kaleidescape movie player. All this, as well as the lights and outside awning (for when the sun is really beating down) are controlled with a wireless 6-inch Crestron panel. For entering and leaving the room a 12-inch panel is mounted in the wall by the entry French doors.
When it's time for really big-screen movies or sports, a single button automatically turns off all four LCDs, lowers an 8-foot screen and fires up the Runco 3 chip projector. The movie collection, Blu-ray, HD satellite and the Sony PlayStation 3 are all viewable on the Stewart Filmscreen Greyhawk model.
For even more eye candy in this sweet room, numerous signed sports jerseys, baseballs and footballs and other rare sports mementos are all over the place. "The large number of Pittsburgh items are a give away to the owners favorite team," says Kunis.
One button can also turn everything off in the room when someone leaves, or bring the lights up to comfortable mood setting and then turn off all the lights two minutes later—giving everyone enough time to leave and head back to the main house. "Of course, if anyone is so inclined, the touchpanel also controls the outdoor spa where you can relax after a busy Sunday of cheering your favorite team," Kunis says.

Dear Members,
Keep in mind that Character Bashing is now prohibited. Making fun of certain characters/character pairings leads to a pointless thread filled with insults and general rule breaking.
Also, remember that Versus threads are allowed only in the Versus section.
Thank you, NarutoBase Staff

Against fellow Kages, that's where the lack of information becomes a noticeable issue for debates and such.
Depending on whom can be brought out by Edo Tensei, it's not unreasonable to say Tsunade and Hiruzen could lose.
The former hasn't exhibited any methods of sealing and her linear patterns could, over time, contribute to her losing.
Hiruzen had to use Shiki Fūjin to overcome Edo Tensei. If 2-3 are present, Tobirama would be victorious. (no arrogance)
The Fourth Kazekage would likely lose. He was killed without much trouble by Orochimaru and his Suiton should help.
There's bound to be more high-level shinobi that would lose to Tobirama. For now though, it's mostly speculation.
Ah, I see.
I do put Tobirama over Tsunade and Hiruzen, but that's due to by bias :scorps:
I wonder if his S/T or Edo Tensei will ever be expanded on...
what do you mean by that

Ask a question that isn't worth creating a thread about.
What would happen if itachi's susanoo struck its totsuka blade on a tailed beast? Wonder if they have souls too?
does anyone else wonder how Orochimaru was able to use one of the First defenses? "Goju Rashoumon" this is rather surprising of him but i guess now really.
Why havent anyone talked about how Tsunade is some relative to Naruto? They both are decendants of the Uzamaki clan. Tsunade grandmother was the First wife who was from the clan. Obito mentions how Naruto is like the First wife being able to sense evil.
Why havent this story been foretold in the history books in Konoha, about how he was able to go sage mode? This just shows how Yamato have a lot to do when the battle is over.
Curious why isnt there more decendants of the Senju clan? Uzamaki Check, Senju where are all the ninjas?
what is this album thing on create your album ???

You upload pictures and such, and they can be viewed by others. Of course, viewing will depend on the settings you set.
Why is that my 5th somewhat good thread gets ruined by anti and pro sakura lovers
p.s. maybe i should have posted 4 main girls in my opinion who did something etc. like that
do you guys think tsunade has mastered slug sage mode?
jiraiya came close to toad sage mode. idk about orochimaru, kabuto is a dragon. so what about tsunade?
There's no conclusive evidence that Tsuande possesses Sage Mode, though she may.
Personal thoughts, it doesn't seem likely. When she left the village, she took up gambling and heavy drinking.
her skills were considerably rusty when she was recruited as Konoha's most recent Hokageit would've been more prudent for her to have used it when fighting at least Madara, if not Pein
Will Yamato become ever relevant again?
Will Kakashi have a one vs one fight against Tobi?
It is a mystery.
how do send points to another member. i think its named status points or something
Would NB be better if most nin could only use up to three releases max? Chuunins get one, blah blah, allowing only Rinnegan users to excess all five?
Can someone link me the databook page of the Creation Rebirth? As I remember is in the 2nd databook.
Can anyone tell me how Rinnegan revives people? is there a limit? can Obito bring back Neji? if there's no limit why didn't Obito revive Madara through Negato?
What does Itachi mean here?
"Because you cannot cast genjutsu on someone with the same eyes."
Is he referring to a mechanic of Izanami? Or is he just stating that 3T sharingans will cancel each other out?
after much time, i think Rikudou may be Uzumaki. because Uzumaki were distant blood relatives of the Senju clan and their symbol same eye of Uchiha clan ancestor.
Members of this clan were very knowledgeable in the art of fūinjutsu, same ability of rikudou ( his fūinjutsu can seal Juubi)
so what do you think?

when use rinne tensei to revive people, the user will die, i think may be kakashi convince obito, then obito will use rinne tensei to revive all everyone.
Obito didn't revive Madara through Nagato because Nagato want to create piece by his way, and Obito need convince him with free will to revive Madara. May be Obito still didn't tell Nagato anything about his plan
Is it possible that we may see Edo Enma?

Enma is not dead, so he can't summoned by ET.

Yeah I just thought of that. But could Hiruzen still summon him then? I just think he's bad ass.
The edo tensei is supposed to bring people back at their strongest, right? So why was the 3rd brought back as an old man? He clearly wasn't in his prime when he died.
Also, if he was truly stronger than the 1st, why wasn't he able to resist Orochimaru's control like the 1st?

........Thinking. does this mean that even if Akatsuki were to extract the 9 tails from Naruto and 8 tails from Bee, would they still be able to form the Juubi with the missing chakra of the other half of the Kyuubi?
Kurama regained his other half of chakra

Another month down, how many to go? I think 12. This month we worked on Time Management. We were supposed to track how we spent our time for a week. Identify our "clients" and obligations. Identify our time thieves. We concluded with how we would better manage our time.
My submission identified my time thieves as my kids as number one, Twitter, FaceBook and Email, and housework (LOL!) as the major things. My clients are my freelance writing, genealogy business clients, my blogs, research, volunteer genealogy society projects, me myself and I, and my family.
Basically I know when I am the most productive – early morning and when the boys are in school and the house is quiet. After they come home from school I'm lucky to get much done. Most of the time I can accept this, other days it feels like I'll go crazy because I can't even complete a thought. I also know that once the boys are in first grade in the fall, my days will be more my own and I can expand my list of clients and goals.
It was a good assignment and made me sit back and remember again that it is ok not to get everything on my to-do list done. That I have many other responsibilities besides work and there are times when I need to shut out the world and focus.

Post subject: blag, freed-ora and what to do.
Just a little thing I think about. Everybody there know you may install a freed-ora (Fedora cleaned of all non-free stuff) doing like this:
So I think guys using freed-ora may use blag forum to ask for support or for giving help to the others.
You know too, you may install blag icons theme (Thanks to veganix) on it and run something like a blag. And maybe if we are some guys chatting about this here we'll go to a new blag release. With a little help from our friends (Thanks to the Beatles) we'll build something.
Happy New Year to all the old chaps and the new ones!

Post subject: Freed-ora19 & a Unique Unix Comprehension of Freedom ?
to Junichiro & Veganix
My Blag16k has become unstable with Gnome 2.3 applets breaking,X-Chat Gnome ,Pidgin crashed ,I did reboot and re_installed although you both recommended avoiding using it for obvious security reasons.Had a Buggy Sylpheed on Blag 14k..also;And
as already explained i use another distribution on an external HD,but have no real experience with Bash & other Console but have opened a terminal a few times;
does installing Freed-ora need a full comprehension of the Kernel and how Unix file system works?..
5,xî%?# presently mystified by all the different tools,Apt,ect;packages&repositories,
Once the Kernel is Libre is it all non Graphical?console to build all the way to look like
Another point is failed to boot into Fedora19(black screen)Older Iso recommended.
Older Libre kernel as well?
Many questions from a beginner.
thanks anyhow .

One has to select keyboard conf by default..
Finaly on the 3rd boot all was fine keyboard wise
Yum is not recognizing my root password..
looks like root password stay on US keyboard conf
despite typing out the same and exactly the same
password...no success...(?)
I rebooted a 4th time and really triple checked ect...
but ended up again in Us keyboard conf.
. =tritqn (:-(
Bug 964460-Anaconda selects wrong keyboard layout but mostly
it concernsSuisse-Allemand. Language...no bug then..

I have booted for the 5th time
1)when you select language & keyboard set-up by default Ok
2)what is happening is when i enter the root password
3)the set-up goes back to US keyboard
you have to double click to confirm your root password
it seems to confirm on only one click....
4)just after you are asked to create your Users account
and there it is back to US configuration=tristqn
5)Unable to login on the 5th boot!!password not valid..
the installer does not function properly at the very moment of
root password creation confirmation
sets back to Us thus rendering the valid password invalid.........!
I was unable to login on the 5th boot.

Don't know what you have done during installation; never had that kind of problem since a long time. Do you use a hard installation or a vm machine?

The current anaconda installer has improved slightly since fedora 18, but is still not very user friendly. Did you change the keyboard layout in the settings menu before running the installer? This seems to mess up keyboard settings.

thanks Veganix & Junichirô
I shall try changing settings before installing to Hd -( No Vm )
all goes well ,untill>
.when I set the root password,( click Done to return to the Configuration Menu and Progress Screen. )
this resets the Keyboard to US...the User Creation is then only possible with Us conf.
It worked once =i had French keyboard and Language(Good for me).
but opening Yum would not recognize my root password,
the crucial point is when i click on confirm...
found these but as a beginner it may not concern the same problem and really too far
fetched for me...

I Downloaded another Xfce Iso from Fedora france Site....Same Result
I cannot even log ...in .
Script bug on the Installer?the moment you enter your Root Password
it sets itself back to ""Us configurations...thus even invalidating the root password!!
I mean i have tried 8 times...! it boots fine..thought.
I am a beginner but since June Have successfully installed over a 100 Gnu_Linux Os
I even tried Arch Linux wich booted fine...no Language or Keyboard bug..
i got out= too dificult...but have installed successfully all the variants of Debian based
Debian,GoboLinux,Porteus,Noop,ElementaryOS,Toutou Linux ...ect.....
.dual booted Debian7Gnome3withXubuntu13.04.
some bugs (30%)of course but always error messages on the boot such as Sabayon MATé ( NVIDIA) Salix(Slackware)would not load Lilo. Or debug this..issues>conflicting ..
Moving towards Freedom =
gNewSense,Trisquel and Blag 3k / 7K /14K / 16k... install super all in 15 minutes,
no worries..i forgot Dy:nebolic..
Can a Script cause this or Uefi?..it's just not installing the Keyboard configurations
Here a ""more than experienced" user looks like his keyboard stayed in Us as well..(onF19)
here is the details of the Installer Bug
Description of problem:
The new Anaconda installer offers an option called "Set keyboard to default layout for selected language". This option however, does not select the correct layout for Swiss German but the layout for German (Austria) instead....
looks like its the same problem but with French Keyboaed Setup.on F19.01
Bug 889562 - Console keymap set to "us" if you install with a keymap not provided by systemd-localed
The completed spoke shows "French (French (Canada))", the install completes, but after reboot, I have US keyboard layout at the console, and vconsole.conf says KEYMAP="us".

There is now another way to have a 100% free fedora: Install:
that is 100% free; replace gnome 3 by xfce; replace (if you want) claws mail by sylpheed; and add blag icons and theme.
I sent a email to taro (the guy from gdnewhat) to ask him if there is a IRC channel or something like that to discuss with them.

I have purchased several Hunter fans and the "5 min" fan means its easy to install. I had someone install it for me and they said this type is very easy. I bought it for a bedroom in my beach house and the light is perfect. If you are looking to match d�cor, you can install either the dark wood side or light. Overstock.com always has the best prices too.
I bought 3 of these to replace the cheesy ones that the previous owner had. These look fantastic. Very reasonable for an expensive look. I had an electrician install so do not know how difficult it would have been for use- but they made short work of it.
easy to hang and is very pretty. good deal to replace the ceiling fan in my guest room. another great buy from overstock!
Looks great. I didn't realize that the poles were not included. I only wish they had a remote.
When the product arrived, the shade for the light portion was broken. We are waiting for the replacement shade to arrive. When it does, we will be totally satisfied with our purchase. We know the quality of Hunter fans is excellent.

Walsall Election News POLLING DAY: FRIDAY, 27th FEBRUARY, 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. CONSEQUENCES OF LIBERALISM ! ! On January 21st, 1924, the Liberal M.P.'s, including Dr. Macnamara, voted the Socialists into office. What was the Result ? Unemployment Increased. Food Prices Went Up. Bolsheviks were Recognised. Cheaper Empire Food was turned down. Poplar Extravagance was encouraged. Foreigners were given increased facilities to sell their goods here Unemployed were deceived. Pledges to Old Age Pensioners were broken. Housing promises were broken. Mr. Lloyd George once said that the Russians were "fools to put the Socialists in." (Carmarthen, Aug. 8th, 1924.) Liberal M.P.'s did the same here. The Liberal M.P.'s kept the Socialist Government in office for nearly a year, although, according to Mr. Lloyd George, it was a "floundering and fumbling Government . . . too frightened of their job to do anything themselves." (Carnarvon, December 30th, 1924.) The country showed its want of confidence in the Liberal M.P.'s by turning them all out of the House of Commons, except a miserable group of 40 members. LIBERAL LEADERS are now trying to put themselves right with the people by making big promises of what they will do if only they are given another chance. KEEP OUT THE LIBERAL. FEBRUARY, 1925. BILLY PRESTON, THE UNIONIST CANDIDATE. REASONS why you should VOTE UNIONIST BECAUSE YOU ARE PATRIOTIC The Conservative and Unionist Party is a Patriotic Party. It believes in serving National interests and cheerfully answering the country's call. There were no conscientious objectors to military service in the Unionist Party during the Great War. BECAUSE YOU WANT LIBERTY. The Conservative and Unionist Party is opposed to excessive State Control and bureaucratic interference with individual freedom. Socialism denies Liberty, magnifies State Control, and seeks to regulate everybody, everywhere, at all times. BECAUSE YOU ARE DEMOCRATIC. The Conservative and Unionist Party believes that ours is a democratic country, in which men of ability have full scope to rise to the highest positions in the State. Socialism, by excessive interference and regulation, limits able men's opportunities. BECAUSE YOU UPHOLD THE CONSTITUTION. The Conservative and Unionist Party is a Constitutional Party, supporting the ordered development of our political institutions. Socialists have tried to overthrow them — in 1917 by forming Workers' Councils, and by the " Council of Action " in August, 1920. Many Socialists approve of a Revolution for the purpose of establishing a Socialist Republic here. BECAUSE YOU BELIEVE IN PROGRESS. The Conservative and Unionist Party is a progressive Party. Most big political and industrial reforms have been the work of Conservatives and Unionists, who have the best record of working-class legislation. Socialism, as Russia shows, leads to slavery, tyranny famine and rule by force and not by franchise. BECAUSE YOU ARE AGAINST INDUSTRIAL UNREST. The Conservative and Unionist Party is entirely opposed to the political strike. It looks upon industrial strikes as deplorable incidents in the relations between capital and labour. Socialists use the strike weapon freely to gain political ends. For instance, the coal strikes were organised in order to get nationalisation without the necessity of consulting the people at a General Election. BECAUSE YOU BELIEVE IN EMPIRE. The Conservative and Unionist Party upholds the principle of Empire and Imperial development, believing that our greatness comes from our Empire. Socialists hate the Imperial idea and would allow — even help — the Empire to dissolve, and would replace it in world politics by International Socialism. Vote for Billy Preston, A WALSALL MAN FOR WALSALL. PRESTON - X POLLING DAY: FRIDAY, 27th FEBRUARY, 8 a.m. to 9 p.m. HERE ARE A FEW OF THE REAL OPINIONS OF SOCIALIST LEADERS. OUR FLAG — "THAT RAG." "Comrade" David Kirkwood, Socialist Party M.P. for Dumbarton, says: — "The British Empire is made up of countries all over the world, and the Union Jack - THAT RAG - floats in every clime." — (House of Commons, July 17, 1923). The Socialist "rag" is, of course, the Red Flag. If Socialists ruled, no one would probably be allowed to fly the Union Jack. "DIRTY DOGS." "Comrade Saklatvala, Socialist M.P. for North Battersea, writes: — "The British Empire is made up of of the aristocratic and cunning 'dirty dogs' of Great Britain, who will assail anyone's country at any time. The British Parliament's chief function and purpose of existence is to maintain intact the Empire and to retain all the stolen property and to keep under bondage all the bullied nations." (Workers' Weekly, June 2, 1923). A REPUBLICAN. "Comrade George Lansbury, Socialist Party M.P. for Bow and Bromley, said at a Socialist Party Conference :- "I am a Republican and advocate Republicanism. . . . When the Social Revolution comes we shall know what can be done with Kings Presidents or anyone else. . . . One day, by law appointed, perhaps you won't have a King and Queen." (Daily Herald, June 30, 1923). BAYONET FICHTINC. "Comrade" E. Thurtle, Socialist Party M.P. for Shoreditch, said at the "Labour" Party Conference, June, 1923 : "The Monarchy should be swept away." (Official Report, p. 250). "Comrade" David Kirkwood, M.P., knows what Socialists want. He says : — "The Socialist movement is prepared to fight, and will fight, until we carry out the Socialist Republic — if necessary at the point of the bayonet." (House of Commons, July 17, 1923). THE CLASS WAR. "Comrade" "Bob" Smillie, Socialist Party M.P. for Morpeth, said: — "I have deliberately been trying to spread discontent among our people." (Plymouth, Sept. 3, 1923) "Comrade" J. Wheatley, Socialist Party M.P. for Shettleston, and ex-Minister of Health, said: — "They had a revolution to get through." (Edinburgh, Sept. 23, 1923). He has also said : — "Until the working class learns that it is engaged in a class war we shall make no progress." (At Plebs League, London, Dec. 6, 1924). KEEP OUT THE SOCIALIST.

By KYLE HIGHTOWER
Associated Press
ORLANDO, Fla. - After one of its most unfulfilling seasons in recent memory, Virginia Tech desperately wanted to avoid its first losing season since 1992.
Mission accomplished.
Cody Journell kicked a 22-yard field goal on the first possession of overtime to help the Hokies beat Rutgers 13-10 in the Russell Athletic Bowl on Friday night.
Virginia Tech won its final three games to finish 7-6.
"Not everything in life is real smooth," Hokies coach Frank Beamer said. "These players worked hard and how they reacted to adversity and to disappointment and when all of them wanted to do better _ they kept together."
Rutgers (9-4) had a chance to tie it in overtime, but Nick Borgese missed a 42-yard field-goal attempt to the right.
The loss ended a run of five straight bowl victories for the Scarlet Knights and kept them from recording their first double-digit win season since 2006.
The win also was the Hokies' 12th straight victory over their former Big East Conference rival.
Virginia Tech trailed 10-0 at the half, then rallied in the final 30 minutes thanks to some timely turnovers and offense. Quarterback Logan Thomas struggled in the first half and finished with a pair of interceptions, but also had 192 yards passing and the game's only passing touchdown.
"I can't commend the defense more," Thomas said. "The entire season that's kind of how it's been. I have to give a shout out to (linebacker) Bruce Taylor because he played his tail off the entire game. It felt like he was in the backfield making a tackle on every play."
Taylor finished the night with a team-high 11 tackles to lead a defense that held Rutgers to 67 yards in the second half.
Virginia Tech cornerback Antone Exum, selected the most valuable player of the game, picked off Gary Nova's pass early in the fourth quarter to set up the tying score.
He said though the offense took its lumps early, he was never down on their effort.
"That's just the way the game panned out," Exum said. "We never lose hope with the guys on the other side of the ball. Our job, honestly, is just to go out there and get as many three-and-outs as possible and give the most opportunities as we can to put points on the board.
"We did a good job of that tonight."
Rutgers seemed to be in command until the opening minutes of the fourth quarter, when turnovers and a sudden surge from the Hokies' offense quickly turned the momentum.
Down 10-0, Virginia Tech took over after Rutgers missed field goal and moved into Scarlet Knights' territory for the first time in the game on a 32-yard pass from Thomas to Dyrell Roberts.
Thomas then found Corey Fuller for a 25-yard strike on the next play, before the drive stalled on the 8. It forced the Hokies to settle for Journell's 25-yard field goal.
Exum intercepted Nova's pass on the ensuing drive, giving the Hokies a first down on the Rutgers 21.
The Hokies found the end zone three plays later on a 21-yard touchdown pass from Thomas to Fuller with 10:56 left as steady rain began to fall.
"We finally caught them off balance," Thomas said. "We finally got them uncomfortable. ... I just had to put the ball out there for him."
Virginia Tech defensive end Tyrel Wilson then came up with the defense's second turnover of the night, recovering a fumble inside the Scarlet Knights 40 after Nova dropped a snap while lined up in the shotgun.
An intentional grounding penalty on Thomas forced a punt, though, with less than 7 minutes to play.
They got another chance a few series later, only to see Journell's 51-yard field goal come up short with 2:20 showing on the clock.
Rutgers punted, but got it back just a play later when Thomas' pass was intercepted by Brandon Jones.
"Two tremendous defensive performances, and one of the better defensive performances I've seen from Rutgers players this season," Rutgers coach Kyle Flood said. "It's unfortunate that we came out on the wrong side of the game, and squander that kind of performance as a result."
It was defense on both sides that controlled the action in the first half as Rutgers took a 10-0 halftime lead.
The Scarlet Knights were the most effective offensively, managing a modest seven first downs and a field goal. But the Scarlet Knights came up empty on their best drive of the half, failing to convert on a fourth down pass play inside the Hokies 35.

Real pints, real music and real chat. If you want a real Irish pub, you'll need to come to Ireland
It's true. In Ireland, "the local" isn't a person. It's the pub. But which pub? Is it the one where the sessions finish around dawn, or is it the spot your B&B host said has the best porter? At the end of the day, it doesn't really matter. Whatever pub you pop into, it'll be the real thing. The real pints, the real chat and the real regulars.
Not sure what to drink? Sure, just ask. That sound you're hearing? It's a session gearing up in the corner. The drink the barman is pouring? That's locally brewed beer.
Got that joyful sense of having your own "local" yet? Well, that's to be expected.
We've asked Irish photographer James Fennell, co-author of a book dedicated to the Irish Pub, to let you see what all the fuss is about:
So come on in to Grace O'Neill's, De Barra's, The Crown or The Bulman
Can we help you with anything else? Find out how to get in touch by email Facebook and more.

I find it useful when i'm losing rage to pop shield block. if you have 5/5 into Sheild Specialization every block gives you 5 rage, also i have a Bloodrage and taunt macro coupled with the Glyph of Bloodrage is an easy way to start with 30ish rage. Are you using Revenge ar cleave when fighting multiple mobs, i keep changing the mob on which i use one of these abilities.
*Disclaimer= i am only a lvl 29 prot warrior and this is my first time rolling one, so my advice is only what i have found to work in my case.

Kids' Golf Clubs
Kids' Golf Clubs
Product Selection
Kids' Golf Clubs to Teach the Basics
From complete golf sets for kids to individual clubs, shop kids' golf clubs for boys and girls. Kids' golf clubs are lighter than traditional clubs with grips designed to fit comfortably in small hands.
Playing with kids' golf clubs is the best way for children to hone proper mechanics and technique. Watch them learn the game with complete club sets that come with all the essentials, including two woods, a hybrid, three irons and a putter each specially designed for the forgiveness a beginner needs.
Your child's club selection should grow with them. Select from a variety of putters, wedges, irons and kids golf drivers as they develop as a player. Shop junior's golf clubs or shop kids' golf apparel so they're equipped for the course.
Buying Tips
Consider your child's age, size and skill level when picking out your set of kids' golf clubs.
Hybrid golf clubs are new to the junior golf bag, but they are a big hit on the golf course. These clubs are ideal for young golfers who need a club to split the difference between the distance of a fairway wood and the control of an iron. These clubs ultimately replace hard-to-hit long irons by combining the accuracy of an iron with the forgiveness of a wood.
A kids' golf putter has a mallet-shaped design with an oversized head for increased forgiveness. To help your young golfer visualize the putting line to the hole, choose a putter that features alignment lines and a matte, non-glare finish.
Expert Advice
Not all sets of kids' golf clubs are the same: Youth sets are designed for various age groups, sizes and skill levels.
Junior golf clubs are crafted for a simplistic design. Because children have a lower center of gravity than adults, the junior driver comes with a lower-profile head, producing higher, longer and straighter shots. The junior driver has unique flex that maximizes clubhead speed.
In order for your child to get the most out of their clubs, it is important to make sure their shafts are the correct height for their body. As they grow, invest in longer clubs with different levels of flex using incorrectly sized clubs often leads to bad habits on the greens.
Don't forget to outfit them for the course with a selection of kid's golf clothing including polos, jackets and pants sized to fit junior golfers.

A lot of eyes stay focused on the developmental program in WWE because that is usually where the next star will come from. The latest person to be viewed as the next one to be elevated to the main roster is Alexa Bliss. The diva has impressed management over the last couple of weeks, and some are even saying that she has moved past Ashley Flair in line. She is already ahead of Bayley and Sasha Banks at the moment.
October 29, 2014
Earlier this month, it was revealed that WWE pays their developmental wrestlers approximately $25,000 a year. It has now been discovered that the amount is only for the male performers. The divas in WWE NXT, such as Ashley Flair, Bayley and Sasha Banks, are paid $50,000 a year, which is twice as much. The reasoning behind that is because management feels that the girls have more expenses in maintaining their looks.
September 18, 2014
When WWE announced a tournament to crown a new Women's Champion in their developmental program, one of the names brought up as a potential champion was Bayley. Management is very high on her, and the belief was that she would be receiving an opportunity to prove herself in a featured role. That will not be happening now since Bayley was eliminated from the tournament by Sasha Banks this week.
May 2, 2014
One of the ideas being discussed right now is to have Ric Flair managing Ashley Flair in WWE NXT. With Paige being elevated to the main roster, management can now put more of the spotlight on Ashley, Sasha Banks and Bayley. Having the Nature Boy involved would help to increase interest from the audience, as he is still a beloved performer.
April 15, 2014
Since she is now the WWE Divas Champion, Paige will be dropping the WWE NXT Women's Championship soon. The top candidates at the moment are Ashley Flair and Sasha Banks. While some are pushing for management to put Bayley in the spot, the company feels that it would be better for business if she were to chase the title for a couple of months first.
April 13, 2014
WWE generally likes to put everyone to good use at their television and pay per view events. Last night at Wrestlemania 30, during the big entrance for Triple H, WWE NXT divas Alexa Bliss, Sasha Banks, and Ashley Flair were used as background performers. The trio have been working in developmental for a bit of time now and are waiting for their chance to be called up to the main roster.
April 8, 2014
A picture of developmental diva Sasha Banks performing the 619, a move popularized by Rey Mysterio in WWE. The belief is that she is simply doing it as a tribute, as she certainly would not be allowed to perform the trademark spot on the main roster. Officials are high on Banks, but she is not yet ready to make the jump up from WWE NXT just yet.
March 26, 2014
When WWE announced the arrival of the Slam City cartoon series earlier this week, only guys from the main rosters were included as characters. A fan decided to go the extra step by drawing Sasha Banks, Camacho, Mojo Rawley and CJ Parker as characters for the show. Management has no intentions of including WWE NXT stars as of this moment, though.
March 22, 2014
A video of the match between Paige and Sasha Banks during the latest episode of WWE NXT, where Ashley Flair and Natalya Neidhart both ended up being involved.
March 14, 2014
For a while there, things appeared to be looking up for JoJo Offerman, as she was utilized a bit with the main roster in WWE and was a cast member of Total Divas, a focal point for the company. Now, though, it appears that she is just another developmental diva, standing in line behind the likes of Paige, Ashley Flair and even Sasha Banks.
March 9, 2014
WWE is really hoping that Sasha Banks does well in developmental, as the company would love to bring her up to the main roster soon. Management wants to tout that she is the first cousin of world famous rapper Snoop Dogg. The company has already acknowledged on multiple times that Brodus Clay was a former bodyguard for the rapper.
February 17, 2014
"There are so many Divas who have come and gone who have left their mark in WWE: Ivory, Jazz, Lita, etc. … Ric Flair says, "To be the man, you gotta beat the man," so if I had to choose one, it'd be the Diva who most people would consider the greatest Diva of all time, Trish Stratus. The only reason I'd choose her is because I know in my heart that I can put her down."
January 17, 2014
After spending a couple of years on the independent wrestling circuit, Mercedes Kaestner was finally able to secure herself a developmental contract with WWE, where she will be known as Sasha Banks. The belief is that she will start appearing on television soon since she already has ring experience.

Eastern Holidays & Packages
- Read More..
Conjuring up thoughts of the beautiful orient and exotic culture, Eastern holidays take you on the journey of a lifetime across some of the most beautiful destinations imaginable. Whether it is the beaches of Bali you dream of, temples and markets of Malaysia or high-rise cities of Hong Kong and Singapore, our Far East travel specials are both affordable and accessible. Discover ancient cultures, thriving cities, breathtaking beaches and a world of aromatic spices and plentiful treasures, and enjoy the mystical wonders of the East with our carefully chosen packages.
• Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia
The thriving capital of Malaysia offers a unique blend of ancient Malaysian cultures and high-paced city life. A host of attractions lie await in this city, not least including fascinating markets, the Bird Park which houses hundreds of exotic bird species, the Orchid and Hibiscus Gardens where lush tropical blooms fill the air with delicate fragrance plus a host of entertainment and dining venues within the Golden Triangle. Day trips to neighbouring beach destinations such as Langkawi and Penang are also a must with these Eastern travel packages.
• Bali, Indonesia
With its laidback atmosphere, turquoise waters and endless stretches of untouched beaches, Bali is the ultimate beach destination. Our Eastern travel packages in Bali give you the chance to enjoy bustling street markets in Kuta and Legain, visit the temples of Tanah Lot, spend hours enjoying the sun at Kuta beach, zip around on a scooter to explore the area or feast on scrumptious seafood in Jimaran Bay. This is exotic beach living at its finest, and for those who daydream about escaping the world to remote destinations, Bali is not to be missed!
• Hong Kong, China
As the capital of China, and arguably one of the most important economic regions in the world, Hong Kong is a city of huge proportions. Towering sky-rise buildings and packed streets are off-set by traditional markets selling everything from live animals to electronics, and in-between the gleaming city districts, remnants of the old town can still be found. This eclectic blend of modern city and ancient cultures makes Hong Kong a truly unforgettable destination, and one of the most popular Eastern holiday options.
