Atrial fibrillation is an abnormal heart rhythm. The heart's electrical system normally sends regularly spaced signals. These signals tell the heart muscle to contract or beat.
The heart has two upper chambers called atria. It also has two lower chambers called ventricles. Each signal starts in the atria and travels to the rest of the heart. In atrial fibrillation, the electrical signals from the atria are fast and irregular. The atria shake instead of contract. Some signals do not reach the ventricles and the ventricles continue pumping. This pumping is usually irregular and sometimes rapid. This rhythm can reduce the heart's ability to pump blood out to the body. Blood left in the heart chambers can form clots. These clots may sometimes break away and travel to the brain. This can cause stroke.

In most cases, atrial fibrillation is due to an existing heart condition. Atrial fibrillation can also occur in people who do not have structural heart problems. A thyroid disorder or other condition may cause the abnormal rhythm. The cause of atrial fibrillation is sometimes unknown.
Factors that may increase the risk of atrial fibrillation include:
Symptoms can be mild to severe. This depends on your heart function and overall health. Some people may not notice any symptoms.
Symptoms include:
The doctor will:
You doctor will order blood tests to help diagnose the problem.
The goals of treatment are to:
Your doctor may find another condition that is causing atrial fibrillation. This condition may be treated. In some cases, heart rhythm problems return to normal without treatment.
Treatment options include:
Maintaining a healthy weight through diet and exercise may reduce the frequency, duration, and severity of atrial fibrillation episodes.
Your doctor may recommend that you make lifestyle changes, such as:
Follow your doctor's
if you are diagnosed with atrial fibrillation.
Avoid known triggers if you have risk factors for atrial fibrillation. Also, follow your doctor's advice for controlling chronic conditions, like heart disease and high blood pressure.

Getting more bang for your buck
Good news:
If you don't use your coupons before they expire, they're still worth the money you paid for them for an extra three months.
GrabOne FaceValue gives you another three months after your coupons expire, making it even easier to enjoy businesses all over New Zealand.
How does it work?
- A coupon is valid up until and including the expiry date printed on the coupon.
- If you don't use it before the expiry date for whatever reason, the coupon retains the value you paid for it for an additional three months.
- This means you can turn up to the business up to three months after the coupon has expired and put the money you spent to buy that coupon towards the service or experience printed on your coupon.
For example, if you spend $50 on a $100 dining voucher but don't use it before the expiry date, you will still be entitled to $50 worth of food and beverage services at that business for an additional three months.
The same goes for coupons without monetary values assigned to them. For example, if you buy a bungy jump deal but don't use it before the expiry date, you can still put the money you spent on the coupon towards a bungy jump, for another three months. Remember, the FaceValue of your coupon can only be put toward the service or experience printed on your coupon.
A few things to note:
- FaceValue applies to all deals that display the FaceValue icon. If the icon is not on a deal, FaceValue does not apply.
- It's always best to use your coupon before the expiry date, so you get the most value for your money. And if you're a bit forgetful, we now automatically remind you if your coupons are about to expire.
- During the FaceValue period, your coupon can only be put towards the service stated on the coupon.
- If the offer is seasonal, like a seasonal menu or chimney sweep service, the FaceValue of your coupon can be put towards a similar offer at the merchant's discretion.
- FaceValue does not apply to product deals, travel and accommodation-related deals, or time-dependent event deals.
- The conditions on your coupon still apply during the FaceValue grace period.

Water and Human Health
March 30, 2011
The Significance of Water to Human Health and Performance
Functions of Water:
• Water is essential for life -- Second only to Air, the body requires more Water than any other nutrient.
• Water forms the greatest component of the human body, comprising ~60%+% of body weight.
• Lean muscletissuecontains ~73% Water; Adipose (fat) tissue contains ~20% Water.
• Water is the most-versatile medium and solvent for a variety of chemical reactions; without Water, biological processes would cease in a matter of days.
• Water helps carry nutrients throughout the body and helps transport waste products from the body; the body requires a sufficient daily supply of Water to fuel all your internal waste filtration systems.
• Water helps maintain blood volume, regulates body temperature, and participates in metabolic reactions.
• Water is needed in order for the digestive system to break down and digest food (which is where you get Calories for energy and Nutrients for growth and repair), and Water is also necessary for the metabolic breakdown of ATP, a source of cellular energy.
• Water can increase the efficiency of red blood cells in collecting Oxygen in the lungs.
• Water is the basis for saliva and bile and helps form the lubricant/ cushion (shock-absorber) of joints and the fluid of the eyes and spine.
• 75% of all Americans are believed to be chronically dehydrated.
• Lack of Water is believed to be the #1 trigger of daytime fatigue.
• One of the major causes of headache is lack of sufficient Water.
• A mere 2% drop in body Water can trigger short-term memory loss and trouble with basic math.
• Even mild dehydration can slow down one's metabolism as much as 3%.
• In 37% of all Americans, the thirst mechanism is often mistaken for hunger.
• Preliminary research from Baylor College of Medicine shows that 8-10 glasses of Water a day could significantly ease back and joint pain for up to 80% of sufferers.
• According to a University of Washington study, 1 glass of Water can abate overnight hunger pangs for almost 100% of the dieters studied.
• Drinking 5 glasses of Water daily, according to Seattle's Fred Hutchinson Cancer Research Center and British researchers, can potentially decrease several types of Cancer by 45%-79%.
• The debate continues on how much Water we need. Recommendation: decide what's right for you, pay attention to your body, and drink Water when you are thirsty.
• As a guideline -- the government recommends approximately 70-100 ounces of clean Water every day depending on your body size, and more if you are active or during hot Weather.
• Additional suggestions -- drink a big glass (16-20 ounces or more) of clean Water when you get up in the morning, and another at least an hour before you go to bed.
• Take regular Water breaks, and avoid relying on sodas or coffee to provide your fluid needs.

Childhood best friend and he had similar, since we do not get married is good! We bought a house together, take turns cooking, nobody wants to play long ball! Youth should be a sound that time, "Well." Later, friends get married, he went to gifts. Friends patting his shoulder: "You get married early! So some people tell you to go home for dinner." His laugh, have long been remembered every kick the ball left him a bowl of noodles, but now that person, married.The morning.

He came out from the flower, sweet smile again playing phone: "My dear, today is your birthday, I look at you?" Afternoon. Gravestone, he looked frozen in black and white photo in the handsome boy, red-eyes and a smile: "My dear, I really want you." Birds across the sky, no trace. http://www.cheapmoncler2011outlet.com
light from within, she looked steadily out of the window. All without was bright, moncler men christmas edition down jacket in black and cold, and beautiful. White fleecy clouds drifted about the heavens, like so many phantom barks upon the deep blue sea.
It's cold without and cold within, she muttered, and then, as if startled by some sudden resolve, she turned from the window back to a small escritoire, saying:
Yes, I'll delay no longer. I must answer Lizzie's letter and tell her all. My duties for the coming week will be pressing, allowing me no opportunity for writing, equal to that of the present.
Then she wrote: QUEEN CITY, January 20, 185-.
MY OWN CHERISHED FRIEND: To-night from my casement I looked out upon the cold, bright world, wrapped in moonlight, and as I gazed at the far-off misty horizon, the distance called to mind my far-off friend at Melrose--recalled to mind, too, the fact that your last welcome letter has for an unwonted length of time remained unanswered. Your letter that came on the new year, came as the flowers of spring, always fresh uk moncler jackets and beautiful. It has been neglected from the inevitable press of circumstances by which I have been surrounded, which neglect, I feel assured, you will appreciate and moncler women pop star down coat light red forgive, when I have detailed the following facts.
My sister Sarah is to be married in a week. This approaching event has been the cause of my restricted time, pressing out of sight, and even out of memory, all letter-writing.
Yes, dear Lizzie, the long-expected nuptials are actually about to be celebrated, and all our household, except myself, are in a fever of excitement and delight.
My step-mother is ecstatic over the success of her scheming, and even condescends to be kind to me,-to me, Lizzie, whom she has so long and so faithfully despised.
My father, too, seems happy over this alliance, knowing Mark's excellent character and business qualifications, and appreciating the connection with the rabbi's family. Mark himself appears happy in the hope of securing Sarah for his wife. But as to Sarah, I can scarcely divine her feelings; she is too young and light-hearted fully to comprehend the step before her. She seems delighted with the occasion that bestows upon her so many handsome presents; and beyond this I think she sc

The Joy Factory Debuts aXtion Line of Rugged Waterproof Cases
Quick Reply
The Joy Factory today unveiled a suite of waterproof rugged cases for portable devices, including the Apple iPad and smart tablets at CES. The Joy Factory is showcasing an enhanced product series featuring aXtion, a rugged and protective case line for the iPhone 5, iPad and iPad mini along with Unite, carbon fiber mounting systems. Here's more info:
The Joy Factory is debuting the next generation of rugged specialty products including:
aXtion pro Rugged, Waterproof Case for iPad/iPad Mini and iPhone 5 - Building on the company's success of the company's waterproof cases for iOS devices, The Joy Factory has incorporated advanced waterproof and shockproof technology to protect the iPad, iPad mini and iPhone 5 in the most challenging environments. The case meets the highest qualification of IP68 waterproof standard, meaning that it can withstand continuous submersion in water. The durable case also meets the standard of military grade shockproof MIL-STD-810, helping to protect the iPad/iPhone 5 from accidental drops and guard against hazards in the harshest conditions for those that hit the slopes or work at hazardous construction sites.
All buttons on the iPad are fully accessible, creating new opportunities to transform the device into an underwater camera. The headphone jack is also accessible for waterproof headphones, allowing users to easily listen to music without having to remove the tablet from the case.
Should the iPad take an accidental fall into water, the aXtion pro case will float to the surface for easy retrieval. An optional floating accessory is available to add to the aXtion pro iPhone 5 case.
The aXtion Pro will be available in Q1-2013, starting at the MSRP of $149.95 for the iPad, $129.95 for iPad mini and $79.95 for the iPhone 5.
The aXtion pro includes a full line of accessories sold separately. Such accessories allow the iPad to be leveraged as a 'go anywhere' device and include: Heavy Duty Carrying Handle; Heavy Duty Shoulder Strap; MagConnect Adaptor - compatible with The Joy Factory's carbon fiber mount line; Standard Headphone Adaptor; and Multi-Angle Stand.
iPhone 5 users can take advantage of a number of aXtion pro accessories for work or play including: an Armband; Suction Mount; Motorcycle Mount; Bicycle Mount; Lanyard; Float; and Belt Clip.
aXtion play for iPhone 5
The aXtion play family offers all the same waterproof and shock-proof protection as the aXtion Pro, but in a slimmer go-anywhere size for iPhone 5 users. aXtion Play is a slim, ultra-rugged waterproof case for the iPhone 5 with an optional float accessory. It is offered at an MSRP of $69.95.
aXtion go iPad mini and iPhone 5
The aXtion go family provides water-resistant/shock-resistant protection for everyday protection. The diamond-shaped air cushions protect against routine bumps, drops and scrapes. The rugged water-resistant cases for the iPad mini and iPhone 5 will be offered at MSRPs of $69.95 and $49.95. In addition, a series of accessories are offered including an Armband; Suction Mount; Shoulder Strap; Hand Strap; and Bike Mount.
Unite Family of Universal Tablet Wall and Surface Mounting Solutions
The Joy Factory also expanded its industry-leading line of carbon fiber mounting systems with Unite. The Unite universal family of mounting solutions supports today's popular smart tablets including the iPad Mini, Surface and Nexus. Users can easily snap in their smart tablet into the protective hard shell carbon fiber tray, which in turn screws to the mounting brackets for a sturdy fit. With a variety of options to leverage the tablet in the home, office and automotive environments, the Unite mount rotates 360 degrees for greater viewing angles in landscape and portrait modes and, thanks to a retractable arm, folds up easily for quick storage.
The product portfolio includes: Wheelchair Mount; Wall/Cabinet Mounts; Clamp Mounts; C-clamp Mounts; Tripod/Microphone Mounts; Automotive Seat Bolt Mounts; and Automotive Carbon Fiber Head Rest Mounts.
The Unite line will be available in Q1-2013, starting at the MSRP of $79.95.
The Joy Factory's MagConnect mounting solutions for iPad are now compatible with LockDown, a simple to install cable lock anti-theft device. The LockDown, which is also compatible with Kensington locks, and allows users access to the iPad ports, home and volume buttons, is a theft-prevention device that allows the tablet to be mounted in public areas such as tradeshows, museums, government offices and retailers. It is offered at an MSRP of $89.95.
All products will be available for pre-order at
and through major online sites and retailers.

My Own Vintage Notions
pink, aqua and red retro quilt. So my mom tied the gift into that color scheme. Until I pulled out these items again, I'd forgotten she'd included this vintage hankie. I need to do something with it to go in my daughter's room! Maybe frame it?

Love all that STUFF! Funny thing is, I have lots of vintage items like this from my mom and yet I never thought of it as vintage, it was just my mom's stuff. LOLReplyDelete
I have a bunch of vintage spools in a jar.ReplyDelete
What a wonderful post! I have some of my grandmother's sewing items and keep her buttons in a separate jar. I too need to know how display some of my "loot".ReplyDelete
Great pics. Vintage stuff rules!ReplyDelete
There is an amazing wreath made of vintage thread spools I saw on this blog. I tried to cut and paste the photo but couldn't. You will just have to scroll down to the photo. It is by Jilly Bean Soup. http://littlebirdiesecrets.blogspot.com/2011/02/cha-winter-2011-review-and-pictures-my.htmlReplyDelete
Good Luck
I love the old thread on the wooden spools. I've also collected some old buttons and zippers. So fun!ReplyDelete
I have some vintage spools in one of those old blue canning jars with the tin lid. Know what I'm talking about? I think they look pretty in there. My head will not explode if you say "vintage" again.LOL! I LOVE anything vintage. Speaking of "vintage"(there's that word again), I am really wanting to get my hands on a copy of that "Vintage Notions" book.:-)ReplyDelete
I had that Mandy doll! I know my mom still has it somewhere and is waiting for me to have a girl before she brings out that doll (and I had another friend of Mandy's too) and a bigilion Barbies.ReplyDelete
So nice to have things like this!
Thank you for posting the photos and sharing. I love to look at items like that.ReplyDelete
I LOVE the vintage sewing notions too!ReplyDelete
Can't wait to meet you in Salt Lake!
The pattern picture brought back such great memories for me. My daughters had those dolls and I had that pattern and remember making all those darling clothes. They still have their dolls and the clothes all these years later. I wonder if I still have the pattern.ReplyDelete
What beautiful treasures!!! Have you thought of a shadow box . . . a divided box covered with glass and then hung on the wall like a picture frame. I still have my Mandy doll . . . should pull it out for my girls.ReplyDelete
You have no idea how excited I was to see the pattern for the Becky and Mandy doll clothes! My mom had this pattern and made all of the clothes from it for our dolls. My sister and I still have them tucked away at my parents home. We loved the little pioneer girl clothes (our favorite thing to play dress up was pioneer girls and of course we had matching pioneer outfits too.)ReplyDelete
Thanks for the trip down memory lane!
Oh my goodness! What an amazing little collection. My mom has her mothers sewing collection. And since I'm the only one of her children who sews I hope it comes to me one day. All her patterns unfortunatley got trashed. A non-sewing sister thought "no one would want these old clothes" and send them to the dump. My grandma made a dress every single week for more than 20 years. She had 7 girls (plus three boys) and sewed everything they wore. Sigh, such treasure!ReplyDelete
What awesome treasures. And because I bought a new camera because my fairly pricy Canon G9would NOT blur pictures even on macro setting(long explanation....which I don't even understand), let me just give you a shout-out for the third picture from the bottom, the one of the spools of thread, some in focus, some nicely blurred. *sigh* Perfect picture...ReplyDelete
Such special gifts. My Grandmother gave me a little bag full of about 20 vintage hankies that belonged to her Mother...I don't know what to do with them quite yet. I am a afraid to sew them together but really don't want them just stuffed in a bag. Can't wait to see what you do with your special hanky.ReplyDelete
What a sweet collection! I've got some of my grandmother's things including her ginghers--but those look just like my new ones!ReplyDelete
such wonderful vintage things from your grandmothers! Love them all! I, too, cherish my vintage sewing items that came from my great grandmother and my husband's grandmother!ReplyDelete
I loved looking at your blog. Sew many memories. Sewing really was a huge part of my growing up years. My mother made,then I made, most of my school dresses. They were cute plaids or small prints with coordinating piping around the peter pan collars. The sewing machine was nearly always set up on the kitchen table. The patterns and fabric were cut on the diningroom table. The ironingboard was also set up in the diningroom. Sewing for three daughters and herself took alot of time.Iam grateful for that bonding time and that you are carrying on those traditions. Love, MomReplyDelete
I love the vintage stuff too. I have a little basket I bought at a craft show that is filled with wooden spools of thread a doily and other things. This might be a good idea for your collection.ReplyDelete
i really love the wooden spools!ReplyDelete
I display my vintage wooden spools of thread on a spool display stand in my sewing room. I get a lot of vintage notions and even fabric at yard sales.ReplyDelete
This is so fun! My aunts have a bunch of vintage sewing stuff (wish my mom ended up with it, because I would have snagged it already!) and everytime I see them I mention how much I'd love it. :]ReplyDelete
What a lovely collection of goodies!ReplyDelete
Love VINTAGE stuff!ReplyDelete
And two things Amy - make your daughter a throw pillow with the beautiful handkerchief! I know I saw a tutorial about it this week!!
And that doll clothes pattern....I made every one of those outfits for my daughter (who must be your age) and she still has some of them!!
I still have the pattern too!
Thank you for sharing Amy!
Just looking at all those old wooden spools,the hankie , the sewing bits gives me goose bumps. Sounds silly I know,BUT.That is part of my past just seeing them. I guess a person who does not sew would think me crazy eh? Thanks soo much for that (good feeling) look into the past. Blessings: Dianne.ReplyDelete
Ahhh...My Friend dolls. My mom spruced up my old My Friend Becky doll, sewed new clothes and gave it to my girls for Christmas. Then after they loved it so much she got them My Friend Mandy and Jenni. I love them. I need to find a pattern so I can make them some clothes too.ReplyDelete
I love your pictures. I know I have old notions from my mom and grandmother, now I have to dig them out and practice some photography! And of course, figure out how to display them.ReplyDelete
I love looking at your photos, so many of them seem familiar to me...ReplyDelete
I have my Grandma's sewing box... it's actually in an old film reel cover. I love looking at her stuff especially since she always encouraged me so much to sew.
My Grandmother's name was Roma too! I have never met anyone else that has even heard of that name.ReplyDelete
I inherited my Nana's old sewing notions. It was such a wonderful trip down memory lane. I still remember her teaching me to sew my very first nightgown. Now I have her old jar of buttons on the table behind my sewing machine. Every once in a while I take off the lid and take a deep breath--so many memories come flooding back.ReplyDelete
A question about the thread though. The owner of my LQS said not to use the vintage thread (it's 15-20 years old and older.) She said to always use new thread as the thread breaks down with age. What's your take on that? Thanks!
I have many of my Grandmother's sewing notions. I made a square grapvine wreath and attached many of her spools, quilt pieces, buttons, needle books and such. It hangs on a wall in my sewing room with a sewing machine drawer that I mounted on it's side and added more items. I LOVE ANYTHING VINTAGE!!ReplyDelete
I really love all your vintage notions. I have collected vintage notions from various greats, grandmas and aunts, as well as grandmas. I have tobacco boxes filled with tatting thread, a wooden sewing box with a little of everything, a vintage round Christmas tin with the only quilt blocks my grandmother ever made-feedsack hexies. I too have lots of spools of thread. Im thinking of asking my dad to make a case with a glass front to stack so you can have rows from the side and rows from the top. Thanks for the wonderful trip down memeory lane.ReplyDelete
I use my Grandmother's Singer 301 sewing machine, it is in my mother-in-law's sewing machine cabinet and I use my Mom's sewing box all the time! I love my vintage notions and I wouldn't dream of parting with them and I am always on the lookout for old sewing notions when my husband and I go to flea markets during the summer. Thank you for sharing your family's notions with us!!ReplyDelete
wow! some of those things look so familiar. i'm giving away my age...but me mom had some of those notions too and i used them to sew with in the 1960's.ReplyDelete
how fun! I loved getting passed down some vintage fun, especially from my grandma who used to sew everything under the sun!ReplyDelete
This one's an awesome spool wreath, too!ReplyDelete
Isn't it all just so much fun!ReplyDelete
Un regalo muy especial!!! Son bonitos de ver y de guardar por el sentimiento que llevan.ReplyDelete
Wow, that kind of makes me feel bad for boxing up all that "vintage" stuff I had and giving it to Goodwill. I had my grandmother's old buttons too and sent them to Goodwill.ReplyDelete
Vintage! Vintage!Vintage! I say it alot as well. Love it!ReplyDelete
I love any kind of vintage sewing items. I'm always looking for more...but don't know what to do with it either...I guess I just like looking at them! I have my great aunt's wicker sewing basket with old buttons in it...occasionally I dig through it just to look at them! I'm always looking for more at garage sales or auctions. Love this stuff!!ReplyDelete
When my mother passed away I was just 22. I inherited basically everything she owned, including a lifetimes worth of sewing supplies. My mother sewed all my clothes when I was small, and made stuffed animals, too. And what did I do with all this wonderful stuff? I was so upset and so raw with grief, every time I looked at any of it, that I threw it all away! Now, MANY years later, I could just kick myself! The only thing I still have is her button collection.ReplyDelete
Vintage? Don't stop now you're on a roll.. I love vintage!ReplyDelete
Ok, here's a crazy idea as to what to do with the spools of thread. I really just like looking at them from an "aerial" view like in your last picture. If you could find some sort of clear acrylic box, you could just arrange them how you want them & hang the box on the wall in your sewing room. I think I'd love looking at it...a little piece of graphic sewing art.ReplyDelete
Aw what a great gift. Love vintage notions.ReplyDelete
I love your vintage "stuff". It is wonderful. I have my grandmothers Kenmore sewing machine and it came with the drawers full. I cherish the contents. Happy quilting. LizzieReplyDelete
Roma! I did a double-take because that is my daughter's name. She is named after my maternal grandmother. We love meeting people who are, or knew someone named, Roma. I sort of "collect" them for my daughter. I have really been enjoying your beautiful work for a while now. Thanks so much!ReplyDelete
I love wooden thread spools. Every now and then I feel that I need to find some somewhere, I don't know why or what I would do with them. They are just so nice to look at.ReplyDelete
this post feels like it was written for me:) My grandmothers notions look exactly like yours and i love them very much. Much of my sewing comes from my grandmother, whose name also starts with 'R'. I started when i was 8 and would often sew on her machine when we visited in the summer. I have fond memories of all the trips we'd take to the fabric store. She, too, made clothes for my own My Friend Mandy. Grandma died 2 years ago and would have been 100 this april and embroidered until the very end. When she passed i received her sewing machine. I know many other things were thrown out, but i would have taken it all- every last bit of string, fabric, elastic.... I cant think of my grandma without thinking about sewing.ReplyDelete
yup, we are pretty much kindred spirits!ReplyDelete
Hmmm...some of that stuff looks like things in my Mom's sewing room...maybe I'll have to raid it!! (She sewed professionally when I was little, and has a lot of notions left from back then.)ReplyDelete
I am SOOOOOOOOOO jealous of that yellow canister!!!
I made a lamp to display my vintage sewing items. Took a large mason jar put the items in nicely and got a light kit and shade. I made 3 in all one for me and one each for my sewing buddies. They were very happy with them.ReplyDelete
i saw this and it looked great! it was a spool wreath...so unique, so cute. I am sure if you googled it you could find some.ReplyDelete
hope it gave you some inspiration or an idea
I still have my grandmere's sewing cabinet that my grandfather made for her. It is stocked full of vintage sewing items that she brought from France after WWI. I am holding on to these memories so I can share them with my daughter, daughter-in-law and grandaughter.ReplyDelete
I had that doll clothes pattern! It might still be in my mom's pattern stash! Loved those dolls! They are boxed up in my garage, and I'm thinking they will all end up on ebay....since we still have no girls here ;)ReplyDelete
Love the vintage sheet quilt too- beautiful- as always :)

I would definetly make a shadow box for your sewing room to display those vintage items. Use some coordinating fabric for the background of the shadowbox to match your rooms color scheme in maybe a retro pattern for the time.ReplyDelete

Great collection of vintage sewing notions! I use old print drawers found at antique shops to display my vintage thread and thimbles. I just hang them on the wall and fill them up.ReplyDelete
display some of them via shadow boxes!ReplyDelete
Roma is My older sister's name and also my SIL Mother's name. I haven't heard it that often. Love the Treasures your Grandma shared with you. I used the old wooden spools I had to make a spool toy for my children when they were little. They have got some 3rd generation drool on them now.ReplyDelete
That little needlebook is so sweet. Whatever you do with your vintage collection of spools, don't sew with them! My grandmother was a horder of the first degree and I inherited garbage bags full of sewing notions, yarn and thread. Everything I tried sewing with these threads has come apart, the vintage cottons and rayons just disintegrate.ReplyDelete
LOVE the vintage supplies. I have lots of them, too -- from MY grandmother. I display them in an old wicker basket. I like that some of them still have the original price tag.ReplyDelete
My grandmother did a lot of tatting in her time, and I have a whole collection of hankies on which she tatted around the edges.

For the fourth year in a row, the annual MayDay Music Festival in Wilkes-Barre, PA is donating proceeds to Soldiers' Angels. Over the last four years, this event has raised almost $10,000 for SA, with $4,000 coming from last year alone! This year's Festival runs May 26-27 from noon to 10 p.m.
In the past, the festival has been a one day event, beginning at noon and ending at dusk. Due to the festival's success, the city's parks department has given approval to expand it to a two day event with longer hours.
Soldiers' Angels will be in attendance again this year with a table to encourage people to support the troops, and Soldiers' Angels brochures have been included in the packets given to prospective sponsors by the event organizers.
This year, the MayDay Festival includes a large number of national touring musical acts on various stages, as well as food vendors, raffles, a bake sale and a "MayDay PlayDay" section of the park which will feature arts & crafts, kids yoga, and more. Entrance is free.
Thanks so much to Sector One Entertainment, LLC for this tremendous opportunity and their years of generous support. If you are in the Wilkes-Barre area or know someone who is... pass the word!

Our Philosophy &
The Graduating Class Gift Campaign is an important tradition and allows graduating classes to make a significant impact at the Tepper School. Over $150,000 has been raised during the past six years to support the class gift.
Why a class gift campaign?
The Tepper School Class Gift Campaign provides students with an opportunity to reflect on their time at the school, come together and show class pride, and help ensure that future classes have a positive experience. Believe it or not, tuition only covers about 50 percent of the Tepper School's operating budget. The school's fundraising efforts help fill in the gap every year.
During each class gift campaign, students raise funds for a designation of their class's choice. Past designations have included scholarship support, equipment upgrades, capital projects and endowed funds. High student giving rates show alumni, recruiters, prospective students and other institutions that current students believe in the school, increasing the value of a Tepper School degree. And most importantly, class giving is a stepping stone to establishing a tradition of philanthropy at the Tepper School, ensuring the success of the school long after each class has graduated.
Last October, the full-time MBA Class of 2014 kicked off their class gift campaign, Build Your Legacy, to raise funds for a space in the new Tepper School building. To do so, the students set a goal of reaching $30,000 by June 30, 2014 and $200,000 by their five-year reunion in April 2019. Notable results of their campaign include:

See what would have happened had Truman decided not to drop the atomic bomb on Japan.
- An in-depth look at the massive invasion planned for November 1, 1945.
- Military experts examine the battle plan and speculate on how it would have unfolded.
- Learn why Truman decided to drop the bomb.
By the spring of 1942, Japan controlled the western Pacific, the Philippines, and large parts of Indochina. America and her allies knew that victory could only be achieved by unconditional surrender, which would require occupying the Japanese homeland.
Operation Downfall - the plan to invade Japan - would have dwarfed the D-Day landings in Europe. According to the plan, on November 1, 1945 General MacArthur would lead an invasion force onto the beaches of Kyushu, the southernmost of the Japanese Islands. Six months later, the largest beach landing in military history would take Tokyo. Politicians and military strategists knew that Japanese resistance would be ferocious. Plans for the invasion continued until President Truman made the decision to drop the atom bomb.
X-DAY: THE INVASION ON JAPAN traces the invasion plans from Pearl Harbor to Hiroshima and reveals why Truman chose the bomb over Operation Downfall.

Children & Youth: Building tomorrow today
As young people mature, the decisions they make have an enormous impact on their families, their communities and our world. But growing up surrounded by poverty, war or in the aftermath of disaster increases their risks and limits their choices.
That's why giving children and youth the right support at this most critical time is essential to building tomorrow's strong, productive communities.
When disaster strikes, young children are especially vulnerable to developing emotional and social problems that can jeopardize their futures. Mercy Corps worked with experts to design our signature Comfort for Kids program that helps children process their trauma and recover through play, sports and art activities. See our expert's recommendations for how parents and caregivers can help children through times of crisis ▸
For adolescents faced with violence, early marriage and interruptions to schooling, we provide opportunities for community involvement, vocational training and life skills development. Our goal is to empower youth in the toughest places to make smart life choices and invest their energy in developing solutions to their countries' biggest challenges.

We ship factory direct and can only estimate the length of time that it will take for your item to ship out. The normal ship-time before each item leaves the factory is indicated in the blue box.
Quick Ship options, such as select color choices, are available on some items and those options and their ship times will be listed in a red box above the normal ship time. If you do not see a red box, then there are no Quick Ship options for that item.
You may have multiple shipments to complete your order as each item has varying lead times and may be shipping from multiple factories.
Summer months (June through September) are especially busy due to the back-to-school season. Please expect that the listed ship times may be extended and plan ahead.
Contact us if you are concerned about your deadline and our team will confirm product availability with the factory and/or suggest a faster solution. We do our best to provide accurate ship times, but we cannot guarantee any delivery date.
See our Quick Ship section for items that we trust to have the fastest ship times, some even as fast as 24 Hours!

The Planner Trespa TopLab Plus science tables from Smith System are ideal for school classroom labs and science experiment areas. The top material can withstand water and moisture,
as well as heat of up to 356*F for up to 20 minutes. In order to
accommodate school laboratories and science classrooms, the material will
not support the growth of bacteria or fungus. Another benefit to the
laboratory is that the table top can withstand many harsh
disinfectants. The Trespa TopLab material is also nearly 30% lighter
than the Epoxy Resin options available. The rugged frame of 1"x2" 14-gauge steel tube cross supports are welded to 11-gauge steel mounting plates that connect 1-1/4" square, 12-gauge steel legs. Adjustable in height in 1" increments, this science table can be used in a variety of K-12 science labs. Order this Planner science table to match all of your other classroom Planner student desks and activity tables.
