Welcome to the Office of Student Conduct and Conflict Resolution
The Office of Student Conduct & Conflict Resolution (formerly Judicial Affairs) provides leadership in resolving student conduct and conflict issues at Northwestern; supports the development of community, learning and integrity on campus and beyond; and manages the University's formal disciplinary process, the University Hearing and Appeals System (UHAS).
In addressing conduct and conflict matters, our Office collaborates with several other campus offices, most notably University Residential Life and the Dean of Students Office, but it is the Office of Student Conduct & Conflict Resolution that maintains all records documenting these incidents. We also provide education and resources regarding community principles, ethical decision-making, and the peaceful and productive resolution of disputes.
The Responsible Action Protocol
At Northwestern University, the health, safety, and welfare of our students and community are paramount concerns. As such, all Northwestern students are expected to alert appropriate officials in the event of any health or safety emergency—specifically including those involving the abuse of alcohol or drugs—even if violations of the Student Code of Conduct may have occurred in connection with such an emergency.
Because the University understands that fear of possible disciplinary actions may unnecessarily deter certain requests for emergency assistance, the University has adopted the following Responsible Action Protocol (RAP) to alleviate such concerns and promote responsible action on the part of students. Click here or on the image to the right to learn more about the Responsible Action protocol.

Recent Recreational Snowshoe Reviews
MSR Evo
Love, love, love MSR snowshoes. After a trail day event to try a few brands of snow shoes and hearing what fellow hikers had to say about their snowshoe experience, I purchased MSR. Once you figure out which shoe to put on which foot, you are good to go for a day out in the snow. Easy to get on and off. Made well and does not kick up snow onto your back that some other brands can do. They did not feel like I had anything on my feet. Just walk and go! Full review
Bigfoot Snowshoes ADV Adventure
What a horrible experience. Purchased two pairs of these and they are terrible! Started falling apart the first time out. We didn't walk on anything but snow. These are the worst snowshoes I have ever used. They have several flaws: The ratchet bindings loosen very quickly, so you have stop to tighten them every few minutes. The poles close no matter how tight you set them. The baskets that attach to the bottom of the poles broke in the first outing. The shoes themselves are poor quality. The… Full review
L.L.Bean Men's Winter Walker
This is my first pair of snowshoes and I'll have to say I'm impressed with the quality and ease of adjustment these snowshoes have. I bought these snowshoes three years ago and have had a blast with them, both in the woods and open fields. So easy to just step in, tighten, and away I go. The built-in crampons mean ice (which I've used these on) is no problem whatsoever. I'd recommend these to anyone. There may be better out there, but for entry level and price these are tough to beat. Full review
Redfeather Men's Hike
As a relative novice to snowshoeing, I found the Redfeather Hike to be easy to put on, natural to hike in, and comfortable. They outperformed the snowshoes I rented from REI. Once a year, I get to attend a conference in Boulder, CO. Each year, the conference organizer (Tom) invites attendees to arrive a day early for a bit of snowshoeing in the front range of the Rockie Mountains. My first year, I rented snowshoes from the local REI (I'm sorry to say, I can't remember the brand). They were "okay,"… Full review
MSR Evo
About the only thing that would hurt these snowshoes is throwing them in a fire! They're made of bomb-proof, injection molded, high impact plastic and can take more abuse than anything I've seen. Best for on-trail hiking but be forewarned — plastic is LOUD, especially on a packed trail. I like getting the cons out of the way first so I can go on and list all the really good stuff. So, here you go... Con: These snowshoes are heavy. They're made of high impact, injection molded plastic, so once… Full review
Ganka GKSII Snowshoes
Really easy getting in and out of bindings, durable and well made. Very lightweight, comes with a storage bag which doubles as a pack. Well worth the money which wasn't very much. Been looking for snowshoes for the wife and I. We live in Bathurst, NB, Canada, and are limited in what and where we can purchase. I have a pair of older handmade snowshoes which work very nice. They float on the snow lol, Years ago I bought a pair of aluminum ones from Canadian Tire and they were awful. So upon searching… Full review
Atlas Elektra 9 Series
Granted, these are my first pair of snowshoes, but I am quite pleased with them! I thought they perform well and I don't have the problem of snow being kicked up from the back. I've done just a little running with them so far, but hope to do more. All I remember about snowshoeing were those horrible wooden, tennis racket/boat things we wore in Phys Ed in junior high 30 years ago. Based on friends telling me I had to try it again and hoping to be able to try some snow shoe running or at least maintain… Full review
Bigfoot Snowshoes ADV Adventure
Base began falling apart/tearing after three years of light use. Looks like crampons can come up and cut the base straps, other stress tears, too. I weigh 160 lbs and was using Size 25 so shouldn't have been overstressing them. Disappointing. Full review
Yukon Charlie's Women's Trail Series 825
My first pair of snowshoes, but I do not see a reason to change. Easy on and easy off. They stay on while out enjoying the snow. I would definitely recommend them. I am 5'6" and 128 pounds. They are easy to size to your snow boot or hiking boot. I have used them a half a dozen times or so, in deep soft snow and on icy crunchy snow of the Pacific Northwest Cascade mountains. There are some signs of use, but no flaws in the gear. Full review

COLUMBIA, Mo. (AP) - Ryan Nassib threw a 17-yard touchdown pass to a wide-open Alec Lemon with 20 seconds to go, capping a 21-point fourth quarter as Syracuse spoiled Missouri's home finale with a 31-27 victory on Saturday night. Lemon had 12 receptions for 244 yards and two scores, including a 13-yard catch that tied it at 17 earlier in the fourth. After trailing 17-3 early, the Orangemen (6-5) followed up on a 45-26 upset of previously unbeaten Louisville a week earlier and became bowl eligible for the second time in three seasons.
Andrew Baggett's 46-yard field goal with 1:52 to play had put Missouri, minus injured quarterback James Franklin, up by three.
Kendial Lawrence had 119 yards on 27 carries with a touchdown for the Tigers (5-6), who need a victory at No. 9 Texas A&M next week to become bowl eligible for the eighth straight season.

Crime News __Featured Slider — 15 March 2013
By Melissa Quinn
Alexandria motorists have been given fair warning not drink and drive on St. Patrick's Day – authorities announced Friday they will kick off a roaming driving while intoxicated enforcement effort Sunday night.
The crackdown on driving while intoxicated is set to begin at 8 p.m. and continue until 6 a.m. Monday morning.
Motorists suspected of driving while intoxicated will be stopped and officers will check to ensure they do not have alcohol or drugs in their systems.
Those found driving under the influence face the maximum penalty of one year in jail, a $2,500 fine and 12-month suspension of driving privileges. Sentences may vary depending on the blood-alcohol content of the driver, said Police Chief Earl Cook.

Award-winning author, narrator, and screenwriter Neil Gaiman personally selected this book, and, using the tools of the Audiobook Creation Exchange (ACX), cast the narrator and produced this work for his audiobook label, Neil Gaiman Presents.
A few words from Neil on The Land of Laughs: "I chose The Land of Laughs for Neil Gaiman Presents because I love Jonathan Carroll's books and want to bring them to as wide an audience as possible. I suspected the character of Thomas Abbey would be both a challenge and an opportunity for the right narrator. Edoardo Ballerini conveys a certain wistfulness and vulnerability underneath Abbey's grumpiness."
Thomas Abbey is a man stuck in a rut. An English teacher in a small Connecticut prep school, Abbey is in a crisis. His career is unfulfilling, he has no social or love life to speak of, and he cannot break out of the shadow of his famous father, the actor Stephen Abbey. To kick-start his life, he takes a sabbatical to work on a biography of his favorite writer, Marshall France. France's books were the only thing that kept Abbey sane during his childhood, and though he was renowned for his lyrical and imaginative children's books, nearly nothing was known about the writer's life.
Although Abbey has been warned that France's daughter, Anna, has blocked all previous attempts at her father's biography, he and Saxony Garder - an intense woman also obsessed with France's life - head to Galen, Missouri, with high hopes of breaking down Anna's resistance. They are surprised to find Anna the soul of small-town hospitality and quite excited about Abbey's proposal - even eager to get the project finished as soon as possible.
Even stranger than Anna's behavior is the town of Galen itself. On the surface, all is as a small Midwestern town should be. But the people of the town seem to know what their future holds - freak accidents and all - down to the hour and are as eager for Abbey to finish the biography as Anna is.

"Edoardo Ballerini perfectly captures the hesitant and faltering Thomas Abbey, a schoolteacher who wants to write the biography of his favorite children's author, the mysterious Marshall France. Thomas's story starts out realistically enough, but when he and his girlfriend take a research trip to France's hometown in Missouri, things begin to veer into the bizarre. Ballerini makes the listener sympathize with Thomas, even as he begins an affair with France's daughter, Anna, a woman obsessed with her dead father. Ballerini's command of Thomas's character and his spot-on voices for the secondary characters ground the story as it becomes more fantastical and the listener learns that either things aren't what they seem or Thomas is not entirely sane. An unsettling examination of obsession." (AudioFile)
"It's Not You - It's Me"
I got half way through this book and was so. intrigued. Here we had this utterly delectable little novel with a great premise, wonderful characters, and an completely unique perspective, and by the time I got right smack dab in the middle of it I was tearing my hair out trying to figure out what diabolical mystery it could all be building up to. And then I found out and all I could think was "oh, is that all? well I can tell where this is headed".
And the book rolled on. And it ended just like I thought it would (I really loved the closing lines though) which afforded me the opportunity to nod sagely to myself while listening to my ipod between classes and ruminate on the inadvisability of trying to predict plot twists. For a long time after I sat and mulled over why I thought it was that I didn't enjoy the latter half of this book as much as the former. I think its because I've just read, if at all possible, too much fantasy. If you know your tropes you can spot this one from a mile away.
But I still liked everything else about it. And obviously I am in the minority in my opinion about not being so hot on it. I don't mean to seem self congratulatory for having figured it out, that's not my intention. I was just hoping for something different. That being said I do not consider this to have been a waste of a credit - I still enjoyed the story, I'm still utterly fascinated by the characters and Ballerini did a fantastic job in bringing it all to life. Quibbles aside, I still recommend it.
In the end I think this book did what it was supposed to do - it introduced me to an author I never would have heard about otherwise, and it made me want to listen to his other works (I've added everything else he offers through Neil Gaiman Presents to my wish list). While this might not have been a strong entry into his cannon for me personally, I can tell he's someone whose work will appeal to me and I look foreword to listening to more first chance I get.
"Didn't quite pull together"
This is the third Neil Gaiman-recommended book I've listened to recently (Light and Pavane are the others) -- and it will probably be the last. I haven't really found any of them inspiring in the audiobook format. This one has a pretty good premise, but the story seems to get sidetracked with unnecessary stuff, and the ending was anticlimactic.
"Pretty Rockin'"
I got this because I was looking for horror. Turns out it's really more interested in exploring what happens when you live for your art rather than living for actual life.
Fans of metaphor and hyperbole will love this book. See, the way Jonathan Carroll rolls is to describe things using biting quips that echo what pops into our heads day-to-day -- for example, your lover doesn't "cling so tightly to you that you have to peel yourself away in the morning"; instead, she "scotch-tapes herself to you".
As for the narrator, Ballerini does a great job with the male leads but it gets hard to tell the voices of the main female leads apart.

"Odd. A writer's grandiose fable."
This book begins well enough. It is the story of a teacher and writer named Thomas Abbey and his girlfriend Saxony. Tom takes a sabbatical year in which he decides to write a biography of his favorite author, a man named Marshall France. For the first half or so, the book is a well-written story, narrated by the always wonderful Edoardo Ballerini, which makes it a delightful experience just for that. However...(isn't there always a however?)... our heroes drive to the town of Galen, Missouri, and this is where the story escalates into a fable of delusional proportions. If you knew that this was going to be some variety of science fictionish work, that would be one thing. But, not having known that, the book becomes pretty preposterous. I can't help revealing the spoiler here, as it takes up almost half the book, and is, I suppose, the grand idea of Mr. Carroll's. The conceit here is that Marshall France has written a magnum opus in which he has created the entire town: all the people who live in it, precisely what they do, when they die, etc. He (France) also has the superpowers available to himself that he can make people die at his whim, or turn into dogs, etc. At first Tom and Saxony do not believe the tale, but they are fiercely sold on it by Anna, the author's daughter. Soon Tom is sleeping with Anna as well as Saxony. Since science fiction requires us to suspend our usual assumptions about life, the only way to enjoy this experience, I think, is to just not try to think too carefully about the entire conceit, as it will fall down like a house of cards on the briefest examination. France becomes a version of God. He apparently has written so voluminously into the past and the future of Galen that ordinary mortals would have taken lifetimes to do this alone, not to speak of writing work that will be marketed and sold to the public. (France's writing about Galen is a Big Secret.) Some of it has a Wizard of Oz quality: children might be mystified, but the outfits are made of cardboard, and pay no attention to that man...
I love Edoardo Ballerini as I love no other narrator. He does the absolute maximum with this material that he can. However, nothing can protect Tom from being the wimpy, passive academic that he is. He bounces from Saxony to Anna, begging each of them to make the decisions in his life that he is too paralyzed by OCD (obsessive compulsive disorder) to make. By the end, you really are considering the possibility that it all really WAS a dream, a thing which worked in literature about 100 years ago.
I would only cautiously recommend this book, primarily for fellow lovers of Ballerini. His skills are so marvelous that they can elevate a lot of writing way above where it actually "deserves" to be. What a guy.
I read speculative fiction, YA, mysteries, entertaining nonfiction, & occasionally, heavier literature. I want it well written & literate.
"Wonderfully imagined"
The reviewing format that audio has set up can be helpful, but in this case makes it difficult to say what I liked and disliked without "spoiling" this book. Because as with the other Jonathan Carroll book I read, "White Apples" I loved the book with reservations. What I loved was the amazing imagination at work here. My favorite sort of speculative fiction is a book that changes one thing about life as we know it, and plays with that concept. This book does that splendidly. I was enthralled. Which was a good thing, because as with "White Apples", I found the egocentric main character and very hard to empathize with. He treats the female characters as useful tools to be used and disgarded, with no real human attachment. Despite this,I would still recommend this book. It was a fascinating read.
I will listen to NO boring book. Old Fav's,Card, King , Hobb. New Fav's, Hill, Scalzi, Sawyer, Interested in Lansdale, Crouch, Konrath
"Best of the not so good"
This is my fourth Gaimen Presents book. Audible had a good idea in choosing someone to to do this, but I believe they choose the wrong man. A look at the ratings of most of the Gaimen Presents books show that he has not done a good job. The ratings suck on most of the books. Having said that I liked this book. It is an odd quirky thing, that is hard to fit into any genre. I liked the main character until he started cheating on his girlfriend and then I saw him as a creep. The book did mange to keep my attention and never was I bored. It also was never great with the exception of the epilogue. The epilogue is probably one of the best I have ever read. The theme of the story is similar to Redshirts by Scalzi.
Why do some reviewers repeat what is in the summary? Just tell us how you liked the book, we don't need long summaries of the story which is given to us already.
The narrator was okay. He did not pronounce Rolla, correctly. You would thing that is something he would have find out about before recording.
"Stunning mix of author and narrator"
The stunning narration of Edoardo Ballerini is more than a reading: it is an acting out. He becomes the voice of Thomas Abbey, a rather hapless man who counters the effect on his life of being the son of a famous person with a powerful obsession: he hopes to write the biography of an author whose books have been a hugely important part of his life.
Carroll's words -- at times almost luminous with associations and details -- paint picture after picture, lingering on images that cleverly and gradually contribute to evocative images of place, people and the community of Galen, Missouri. The reader responds to the characters because they have come alive.
The reader also becomes ensnared in a web of ingeniously presented improbabilities, and the mind tries to counter them with normalities -- hoping Abbey will discover the normal despite participating in dangerous unknowns.
This book touches on aspects of human experience: of vulnerability, trust, love, caring, mind control.
It also explores how we perceive our world -- what hopes and values we bring to our reactions and decisions.
Rich pickings indeed. There's even the ever tantalising concept of predestination somewhere in there!
"I don't get it"
This is just not a very engaging story line. I don't get why Neil Gaiman, who i really like, is so enamored with this story. It just isn't that interesting. Got about halfway through and stopped listening to it as it started to become a chore.
The story is simply not that interesting.
yes, he was good.
It's not the worst book I've ever listened to, but it just didn't keep me interested.
"Confusingly Entertaining"
I am not sure what the hell it is that I just read exactly, but oddly enough I liked it. It was well written and the narration was not bad. It reads more like standard fiction than sci-fi until near the end of the book when you suddenly get slapped in the face. The story revolves around relationships and the quirkiness of small town life meshed with a rather unexpected, zany secret. I strongly suggest not going into this book with any expectations in your head as to what it's supposed to be or you will be disappointed. If you can manage to wrap your head around that idea early on, then you may find yourself enjoying it as I had.
"Better off as a short-story?"
This is a tale with great ideas, and reasonably well-written, but lacks pace. Most of the characters are not particularly likeable, and the performance is average; little more. I feel that it would have been better off as a short story.

One usually has to be extremely intoxicated to wake up next to one of these in the morning, forcing one to pull a coyote ugly, followed by a slew of major profanity, occasionally interrupted by projectile vomiting and sobbing. Also a pre-cursor to repeatedly beating the crap out of one's "so-called" friends for allowing this bullshit to happen. Poor guy.

RILM Abstracts of Music Literature is a comprehensive, ongoing guide to publications on music from all over the world. It provides broad yet detailed coverage and facilitates both focused research and browsing for readers of all levels. From ethnomusicology to music therapy, from elementary music education to advanced music theory, RILM is the first stop for the researcher who wants clear, verified bibliographic information, fully cited, abstracted, and indexed. All document types: articles, books, bibliographies, catalogues, dissertations, Festschriften, iconographies, critical commentaries to complete works, ethnographic recordings, conference proceedings, electronic resources, reviews, and more.
When the administration of the Western College for Women – now a part of Miami University – opened its campus to civil rights activists in 1964, the institution followed its long tradition of independence and innovation. An estimated 700 young, idealistic college students from across the north arrived in Oxford, Ohio for voter registration training before leaving to serve in Mississippi to register African-Americans to vote and assist with local community projects, like Freedom schools and the building of community centers.
Today, the story of Freedom Summer has the power to evoke important questions about American identity, public life, engagement, and commitment. This exhibit will focus on local resident Roland Duerksen and former student volunteers Carole Colca and Mark Levy. They have left the legacy of their work in the Western College Memorial Archives. This exhibit, which includes photographs, letters, audio recordings, and an interactive map of Mississippi, will serve as a narrative of their dedication to civil rights and social justice.

Horry County woman arrested for tax fraud
Columbia, SC (August 27, 2012) --- Sedina Charica Alston, 31, was arrested today and taken to the J. Reuben Long Detention Center for one count of assisting in the preparation of a false tax return.
According to South Carolina Department of Revenue officials, Alston provided a fraudulent W2 form to her tax preparer. Alston did not work for the employer indicated and the W2 form also stated that she earned $15,800 in wages and had $711 in state taxes withheld from her wages. As a result of the fraudulent W2 form, Alston submitted a fraudulent 2011 individual income tax return and requested a state tax refund of $711 to which she was not entitled.
If convicted of the charge, Alston could face penalties of up to five years in prison and/or up to $500 in fines.
The Horry County Sheriff's Office and the U.S. Marshals Service assisted with the arrest.

Investigators in Rensselaer County say they've found the truck belonging to a missing man and they say they found a body inside. Erin Vannella has the details.
NASSAU, N.Y. -- Two hunters found a truck Tuesday morning buried in the woods of East Nassau. It was burned, along with its driver.
"We went to look inside the truck and at first I didn't even recognize the body," said one of the hunters, Keaven Green.
State Police couldn't identify the remains either. The vehicle, however, belonged to Ryan Patton, who went missing last Wednesday.
"He had to have been moving at a great speed because the creek goes down then comes back up, so he had to hit that hard to get to the other side," said Green.
The Rensselaer County Sheriff's Department said the truck appeared to have veered off a narrow dirt path not intended for full sized vehicles.
"If he'd have gone across the bridge he'd have been fine, but he went through the creek and down the other side of the bridge," said Green. "There's a stone wall and he hit that but he also hit a tree."
Members of Patton's family had released a flyer since the 28-year-old went missing. Teams of volunteers have been searching for him for days.
Deputies hope an autopsy will help them find out more information and possibly identify the body. That's scheduled for Wednesday morning.

Welcome to The Nightmare Encyclopedia
Posted 15 November 2005 - 12:01 PM
Welcome to The Nightmare Encyclopedia: Your Darkest Dreams Interpreted by Jeff Belanger and Kirsten Dalley.
Everyone dreams. Though we may not be able to remember all of our dreams, we certainly remember our nightmares. Hell hath no fury and no horror compared with what we can create from the deepest bowels of our own imaginations and psyches. Religious texts and folklore are filled with accounts of dreams, and their interpretations have played a significant role in the decision-making of religious and political leaders. But what do dreams mean? Why do nightmares affect us so powerfully?
I'm proud to introduce my latest book, The Nightmare Encyclopedia: Your Darkest Dreams Interpreted. Myself and my co-author, Kirsten Dalley, have put together a tome that features hundreds of entries on the role of dreams and nightmares in various cultures around the world, on the influence of nightmares in popular culture, music, literature, and art, and what some of the many dream symbols mean. The best person to interpret the meaning of a dream is the dreamer, because only the dreamer can put the images into the context of his or her life.
So little is understood about dreams and sleeping, and the topic incorporates so many aspects of the supernatural. For example, some people claim to have out-of-body experiences during sleep, others believe they have been the victim of a spectral or old hag attack, and some have woken up believing they have just received a premonition in their dream. All of these are human experiences and worth talking about. This was an amazing project to work on because it forced me to pay closer attention to my own dreams and to ask more questions of their meaning. The most true answers from life's most important questions always come from within. Dreams and nightmares are oftentimes the conduit for some of those answers.
-Jeff Belanger

cheercoach05, I've studied many paranormal phenomena that seem to happen in and around the sleep state. To understand some of the phenomena, I needed to better understand our sleep state and dreaming. Dreaming is one of those mysteries that we take for granted. Everyone dreams, but so few of us pay attention to our dreams and try to understand what they might mean for us. The more I studied, the more hooked I became. I love picking apart and delving into things that are unexplained, dreams and nightmares seemed like a great topic to cover next.

text: Public Relations Download Cybex PR Guide Cybex is constantly looking for new ways to help you succeed and reach out to both your current members and your prospective members. As part of this effort we've developed a basic guide to help you use the power of public relations and the media to build your business. This guide is not intended to take the place of a public relations firm, nor is it meant to be all-inclusive. Instead, it offers a basic sense of how to use public relations to your advantage. Cybex wanted to let the world know that we manufacture the best premium fitness equipment in the world. All of our equipment is designed and engineered using exercise science to produce optimal results. For example, the Cybex Arc Trainer produces more fat and calorie burn at lower levels of perceived exertion and with less wear and tear on the body than all other tested ellipticals. We have a great story to tell, but we constantly look for great ways of telling it. To get the word out, we launched a series of initiatives, including: • Fitness Equipment Partner of the National Hockey League: Cybex recently became the Fitness Equipment Partner of the NHL—a professional sports league where speed and power are at a premium, and training is vital to winning. • This year, Cybex has brought back our Pink Ribbon Run, for our third annual promotion. Past participation has generated online, newspaper, and television stories about participating gyms from coast to coast. Cybex formed a partnership with BCRF (The Breast Cancer Research Foundation) to create awareness of the importance of exercise in reducing the risk of breast cancer and to raise funds to find a cure in our lifetime.

Fort Pierce resident Melissa Stonesifer, 25, writes that her phoenix tattoo was done "in loving memory for a friend that was like a mother to me. I wanted something to embody the myth of igniting into flames and being born again from the ashes." Stonesifer says the tattoo artist, Adam Kane of Aloha Tatu Company in Stuart, has done a total of five tattoos for her.
Fort Pierce resident Melissa Stonesifer, 25, shows off her blue-ringed octopus tattoo. The creature is significant, she writes, because it was a childhood favorite from Jacque Cousteau encyclopedias that her father gave her. She wanted something that her dad and she shared, she writes, "especially since he bought me my first two tattoos many years ago!" Stonesifer says the tattoo artist, Adam Kane of Aloha Tatu Company in Stuart, has done a total of five tattoos for her.
Of this compass tattoo, Fort Pierce resident Melissa Stonesifer, 25, writes that the crooked needle emphasizes a J.R.R. Tolkien quote: "Not all those who wander are lost." Stonesifer says the tattoo artist, Adam Kane of Aloha Tatu Company in Stuart, has done a total of five tattoos for her.
Vero Beach resident Elizabeth Lugo, 41, says her tattoo symbolizes her evolution and escape from an abusive relationship, celebrating the courage she found to leave her abuser.
Port St. Lucie resident Sarah Nanyes, 21, says this tattoo ? her favorite ? holds special significance because she is bipolar and wishes people would understand what that means. "It's much more difficult to struggle with than people think."
Port St. Lucie resident Sarah Nanyes, 21, shares this image of an alien holding up a peace sign ? one of her four tattoos.
Port St. Lucie resident Jaimee Campbell, 27, says the support ribbon tattoo on her back represents her struggles and accomplishments with Arnold Chiari Malformation, a brain disorder she was diagnosed with in 2004. Near the top of the photo, Campbell points out part of her scar is visible from brain surgery she underwent in February 2005.
Port St. Lucie resident Jaimee Campbell, 27, shows off her Salem, Massachusetts witch logo tattoo that she and her mother each got while visiting her grandmother's grave in Salem. Campbell writes: "We all lived in Salem until my parents and I moved down here in the 90's."
Vero Beach resident Celeste McWilliams, 41, shows off this tattoo, which was designed by her daughter. McWilliams writes:"In early 2010, our then-6-year-old daughter Cori asked if she and I could get matching tattoos for my 40th birthday, which was coming up the following January. (Ah, the joy of parenting
) I ended my explanation/lecture with, "If you draw a nice tattoo, maybe I'll get it." Jump ahead a few months.Cori was busy doodling one day, and upon my asking, I learned that she was working on a tattoo design for me. She said the unfinished design was a surprise, but that it was ocean themed. (Yes, 99% of my brain was gearing up for the conversation about not wanting Spongebob permanently on my skin...) When the design was finished, I was stunned. Not by the rough sketch, but by Cori's explanation.The main shape of the tattoo was inspired by my and Cori's involvement with Sea Turtle Conservancy. The beach/palm/sunset represented where my husband Mike and I were married in Key West. Two sea gulls represent my Mike and I. The parrot represents Cori. (Before she was born, we bought a stuffed animal parrot for Cori. They're inseparable.) And the treasure chest holds 40 jewels, one for each of my years.How could I not pursue making that tattoo idea a reality?By that December, the rough design was in the hands of a tattoo artist in Key West. And on the day of my 40th, it was permanently etched."
Port St. Lucie resident Christian Johnson, 28, shows off this tattoo - the favorite of his seven pieces - which represents his grandfather, Sheriff Holt.
Port St. Lucie resident Anthony Graziuso, 21, shows off his first tattoo, a Charmander donning a Miami Heat baseball cap.
Fort Pierce resident Jasmine Montoya, 32, says her tattoo — which wasn't yet completed when this photo was taken — reflects several things she loves, including the night and bears. She also writes that the ring on the girl's finger is a reminder that she finally found a man she wants to marry.
Jasmine Montoya writes that the character in her tattoo looks like her.
Jasmine Montoya writes that the bear on her arm represents her youngest son, who likes to bite.
Jasmine Montoya shows off the top and the back of her tattoo.

It's a toss-up for me -- I'm in love with the brights in Raspberry Mixer, but love the collection of It's a Boy Thing, too!ReplyDelete
I love Fort Worth Fabric Studio and have already made several purchases from them. It's always fun to see what their special Friday Bundle Batches consist of - and I especially love that you can get these selections as fat quarter or 1/2 yard bundles (often a fat quarter just isn't enough for me). Right now, my favorite bundle that they are offering is "Beyond the Gate". Hoorah for Fort Worth Fabrics!

Being a sock monkey nut, I am smitten with the Socky collection! But honestly, I love anything to do with pretty fabric! :)ReplyDelete
I like the navy and pink bundle -- cute! But I'd take this one too, in a heartbeat. Need some of that Heath. Can I suggest that their thumbnails are a little small for my preference? I'm not super old, but I would definitely be more inclined to shop where I can see things a little better without having to click on each item. The pictures are nice, they're just a little small on the main pages. Thanks!!ReplyDelete
I love Dock of the Bay! Would be perfect for my teenage daughter's bedroom.ReplyDelete

I really love that tangerine and turquiose bundle. Might have to order it.
Thanks for the giveaway!
I love all the blues in The Dock of the Bay bundle. Thanks for the giveaway.ReplyDelete
I love the Mini Tamed Ta Dot fat quarter bundle -- what a cute combination for baby quilts and more. The site was not as easy to follow as I expected, but when I used your links, I was able to get to the bundles. Then I realized I could search for bundles -- but that option was not available in the drop down. It might be more interactive if the drop down had a listing for the bundle collections. She has a wonderful eye for color combinations. Thanks for the recommendation.ReplyDelete
The pirates are my favorite. MaryReplyDelete
Oooo I like the ombré dots!ReplyDelete
I LOVE the "Its a Boy Thing" fat quarter bundle by Michael Miller

Illustration by Diane Pierce
The striking rose-breasted grosbeak is a common bird of wooded habitats across much of eastern and midwestern North America. Singing from the canopy of a deciduous forest, even a brightly colored male can be difficult to locate. Late in the summer and during migration, it often feeds in fruiting trees. Monotypic. Length 8" (20 cm).
Identification Sexually dimorphic. Takes more than a year to acquire adult plumage. Adult male: unique in North America. Its black head, throat, back, wings, and tail contrast with gleaming white underparts and rump. Gets its name from a conspicuous bright rosy pink patch on the breast. Note the white wing bar and patches on black wing, and rose-red wing linings. Large, pinkish bill. Adult female: mainly brown above with streaks, paler below with extensive dark streaking. Yellow wing linings. Winter male: molts into winter plumage before migrating. Brown-edged head and upperparts, barred rump, and dark streaks on sides and flanks. Wings as in adult. First-fall male: has buffy wash with fine streaks across breast, usually with some pink feathers visible on sides of breast. First-spring male: similar in pattern to adult male, but all of the black plumage is tinged brown, particularly the head, wings, and tail.
Similar Species Males in most plumages unmistakable. Plumage of females and first-fall males is very similar to plumage of female black-headed grosbeak.
Voice Call: a sharp eek, squeakier than the black-headed's. Song: a robinlike series of warbled phrases, but shorter. Songs are similar to those of the black-headed grosbeak.
Status and Distribution Common. Breeding: nests commonly in deciduous forest habitats, mainly in eastern United States, but ranging northwest to northeastern British Columbia. Winter: mainly Mexico, Central America, and rarely Cuba; casual in southern United States, including coastal California. Migration: peak spring migratory period in eastern United States mid-April–mid-May; peak fall migratory period mid-August–mid-October. Often seen in flocks during migratory fallouts. Vagrant: regular during late spring and fall in the Southwest. Casual, mainly in October, to United Kingdom and Europe.
Population Possible decline due to forest fragmentation.

Sir Frank Williams is thrilled to be celebrating Williams' 600th Formula 1 race at Silverstone this weekend.
Founded by Patrick Head and Williams himself in 1977, the team has 114 race wins to its name and 16 championship titles.
Drivers who have claimed the title while at Williams include Alan Jones, Keke Rosberg, Nelson Piquet, Nigel Mansell, Alain Prost, Damon Hill and Jacques Villeneuve.
Silverstone is a fitting track to celebrate the milestone, with Williams claiming its first ever win at the circuit back in 1979 and also its 100th win in 1997.
The FW35s of Pastor Maldonado and Valtteri Bottas will run a special livery for the weekend, carrying the names of all 691 Williams employees who work across the different divisions of the Williams Group.
"For an independent team like Williams to reach 600 races at the pinnacle of motorsport is a remarkable achievement," said Sir Frank.
"78 teams have come and gone or changed ownership since our foundation and our longevity is a testament to the thousands of people who have sacrificed so much to keep us here. It seems only right to mark this milestone at the home of British motorsport alongside our loyal British fans."
Deputy Team Principal and Commercial Director Claire Williams was mindful of the important task facing the team as it tries to recover from a tough start to the season, but also believes it is fitting that they celebrate their heritage this week.
"Williams has never been an organisation to dwell on what has gone before, but this weekend we will be rightly celebrating our heritage and reflecting on some of our defining moments over the past 36 years," she said.
"This is also an opportunity for us to take stock and look ahead to the future, making sure that we have the necessary pieces in place to make our next 600 races just as memorable."
