Rooster Midcalf is rated out of 5 by 1.
Rated 5 out of 5 by JaneyW101 from So Many Compliments I was so excited to see these socks, so when I put them on, I rolled my jeans cuffs up a few turns. Sure enough, the 'leg' showed, and people asked, "Where did you GET those snazzy socks?" So I told 'em, of course! Thanks!
Date published: 2014-05-17
So you think these would fit on a size 6 with a few washes?
A men's or women's 6? I wear a women's 8 (which is a men's 6) and they fit me just fine! For a women's six it would be a bit riskier, though. Some really hot water might do it, but I wouldn't want to promise anything.
Date published: 2013-12-13
My hands have gotten cold from typing, so I slipped on my arm warmers from Sock Dreams while I blog. Best purchase yet.

Nice Ui beatzz can u up load it so i can DL it maby?
Updated mine (again):
Could you please upload Wrath?
You can get my interface compilation here
This is my current UI, worked on it for some time. The only thing u cant see are my DBM timers, which are above the Swing timer and Cast bar. Any advice would be appreciated though I am happy with it for now. AddOns list below.
118 addons total.
It needs uniformity.
Go into the options of each addon and try to set the textures to the same. Like give them all litestep, or blizzard.
If you can't you might need to get the "shared media" addon first.
Well, I stopped by here because I was watching the Tankspot video for Mimiron looking for a posibility of having that UI that was in the video, and decided to post my current to get any ideas and/or tips. I know it's not perfect, but I made it randomly because I hated the setup I had before.
This is my current UI.

My latest UI.. a modified KithcoreUI.
Lyco, I love your ui and I want to try it out for myself but I seem to have missed the post where you link the compilation. Can you please re-post it, or link to the post where it's compiled? Thanks so much.
Here's mine. Started out as Caulle's but a lot has been rearranged. Bar setup and Unit frames are influenced by Xavs. Overall I'm pretty happy with the looks and even more so with how functional it is.
Remade my UI again. Critique plz.
So I'm working on a DPS Warrior UI, though I'm not sure if there is much demand for a clean, minimalistic display geared to raiding warriors.
Please let me know what you think.

Just updated and rebuilt my UI -

Must love a good breakfast nook. Here's one. White, crisp, cheerful, sunny...a nice place to enjoy the first meal of the day. The built in banquette with a seat upholstered in leather from Holly Hunt, paired with the white Saarinen chairs from Knoll make for a comfy and cozy area to spend oh at least an hour drinking tea, reading the paper, doing a nice crossword (that's for my mom, she loves crosswords), plotting and planning out the day.
I would even lunch in this nook too!
What does your kitchen eating area look like? What do you think of this little nook?
Happy Wednesday!
P.S. Great dinner last night at Locanda Verde here in NYC with best of friends Anne and John! New York is so funny. We didn't sit down to dinner until 10p and the restaurant was jam packed. It was Tuesday night! Also got a chance to see A.Ro and her new guy too when we stopped by Morandi in the West Village. That place was hopping too late on a Tuesday night. New York. New York!
P.P.S. Off to a work party (I know...a daytime work party?) for my day job. Am debating between a totally business work appropriate dress or one that is a little more questionable for the work environment but that I love...hmmm...what to do? The questionable one is from Armani and is almost see-through and has the back out...I know...not appropriate for work but I LOVE it. My dilemmas are such non dilemmas I recognize. There are bigger things to fret about and more important issues to focus on for sure...but for today I'll circle around this little dilemma! Just for a bit...and then I'll get a grip. LOL!

What a beautiful, refreshing breakfast nook. I can feel any tension from my morning quickly draining away just imagining sitting there having something summery a good for breakfast.ReplyDelete
Mine isn't a nook, but it's nook-like. Against a flat wall, I have an upholstered bench in order to maximize space.ReplyDelete
And I love dining late in cities like NYC and Paris. Mr. EE and I have always enjoyed that when we travel sans kiddos. We laughed about the same thing a month or so ago at Bar Boulud.
where is the table from?ReplyDelete
I just did a post on banquettes yesterday -- love them and wish I could find a way to have one!ReplyDelete
Do you believe leather from Holly Hunt is better than any other ...What does she do to the cows...ReplyDelete
I have a built in nook surrounded by windows. The dogs use the bench to get up and stand on the table to watch us come in the driveway. Not happy about that I have to tell you... I wish we had not made the nook and I opted for a regular table and chairs. Figures it was the one thing I always wanted in a house, right?! I also put small boosters on the bench for the kids and it's just a pain, they fight at every meal. Children need proper chairs. I prefer to sit at the kitchen island myself...ReplyDelete
Oh - I also have to add my windows come just as low and the window trim hits you in the back! Too many pillows make it look weird. Great if you have a flat wall - no windows, and no dogs waiting for you on the table!ReplyDelete
I love this breakfast nook, Coco. Just looking at it makes me feel relaxed already! I'd definitely spend a lot of time here if this was my place. :)ReplyDelete
Wear what you love - you'll feel most confident!ReplyDelete
I would love to have a nook that overlooked the garden, I like eating and staring out of the window.
You are one busy lady...love the banquette!! Have a great weekend ~ReplyDelete

For more than a century, these versatile ships have played a vital role in the world's navies. Sub hunters, fleet defenders, and support ships rolled into one, destroyers have proved their worth in countless roles and fought in every major naval conflict of this century.
From World War I, when they were called "four pipers" because of the characteristic number of their smokestacks, to today, when their high tech equipment can detect submarines miles away, DESTROYERS is a vibrant look at the history of these military mainstays.
Take to sea aboard a modern destroyer, and visit earlier ships like those that served in World War II. Naval historians detail the developments that have kept them at the heart of the world's navies, and extensive footage shows them in action in conflicts from World War II to the Gulf War.

text: 5 No, it's going to be difficult-difficult-lemon-difficult.MacUserUK | 01/09/2009 | See all MacUserUK's reviews (6)Being a ex Civil Servant for a Central UK Government department, I can honestly say that In The Loop is an accurate representation of the world of Politics. OK, the Director of Communications is not as foul mouthed as Malcolm Tucker, but all the scheming and double backing stabbing, 'off the record chit-chatting' are . The golden rule in Government is this: It's not what you know, it's who you know.But I digress. In The Loop is a superbly written satirical look at the world of politics. The plot is extremely clever and at times it seems a little bit too real that it could be based on real life events. All the actors and actresses are superb. This movie is not for the faint of hearts though. There is a lot of strong swearing, lots of use of the f-word and c-word that I lost count.In The Loop is a spin-off of the award winning TV series 'The Thick of It' and if you liked that and the Yes Minister series, you will love this movie.The DVD contains the usual extras: Director and cast commentary/interviews, deleted scenes etc. It's only in English with English Description.

Beauty Without Cruelty At-A-Glance
Strengths: Inexpensive; does not test on animals (but lots of cosmetics companies can claim that nowadays); provides complete ingredient lists for all products on their Web site; one sunscreen with titanium dioxide; uses many natural ingredients that benefit skin.
Weaknesses: Does not list ingredients according to FDA labeling requirements; inelegant eye makeup removers; one of the sunscreens lacks sufficient UVA protection; ineffective AHA product; no BHA product or products to manage acne; overuse of irritating essential (fragrant) oils; jar packaging for antioxidant-rich products.
Beauty Without Cruelty, established in 1963, is a British import that began by selling makeup. At the time, they had a unique angle, in that they did not test their products on animals, and in 1963, most cosmetics companies did test their products on animals. But today, many companies can (and do) proudly boast that they do not test their products on animals, and, technically, that is true. However, despite the fact that these companies (including Beauty Without Cruelty) don't test their finished products on animals, the formulations they sell are based on ingredient research that was done primarily on animals. Sunscreens, vitamins, myriad plant extracts, and a vast range of other cosmetic ingredients have established their efficacy and safety based on recent or current animal testing. Although it is wonderful that companies like Beauty Without Cruelty do not test their products on animals, many of their formulations, just like those from every other cosmetics company in the industry, include ingredients whose effects are based on the results of animal research. Otherwise, how else would they know if their ingredients worked or if they were safe?
If Beauty Without Cruelty does excel in one area, it is that none of their ingredients are sourced from animals, which is somewhat unique in the industry and definitely a plus for vegans. However, it would be naïve to believe that any company can stay abreast of what is and isn't healthy for skin without the animal testing of the ingredients in their products. The companies may not be doing the testing, but someone is (or did), and this knowledge forms the basis for numerous new discoveries about what various ingredients can and cannot do for our skin.
Much like the rest of the cosmetics industry, Beauty Without Cruelty makes elaborate claims about the benefits of its plant extracts. And, as is also the case for many other cosmetics companies, they use plant extracts and essential oils that are both irritants and anti-irritants. For the most part their products are a mixed bag; there is one good sunscreen and some average cleansers, but many of their products are not recommended due to the presence of irritating fragrant oils. Beauty Without Cruelty is typically sold in health food stores, but also can be found in some drugstores. Their makeup line, once the driving force behind the brand, is difficult to find in the United States, and as such is not reviewed here.

Organic 100% Whole Grain
Organic 60% Whole Grain
Organic Golden Amber Durum
Imported Traditional
Use keywords to find the product you are looking for.Advanced Search
Eden Organic Flax Rice Spirals are made from the finest pasta making grain in the world, golden amber durum wheat Triticum aestivum, favored for its excellent nutrition and its ability to create smooth firm texture. Eden durum is grown on the high plains of Montana and North Dakota using organic methods. Our durum wheat, brown rice, and flax are grown on USA family farms by those committed to building vital soil, cleansing the environment, and producing the safest, most nutritious and delicious food.
Eden Organic Flax Rice Spirals are small batch hand crafted at the Eden Organic Pasta Company, a Detroit landmark using traditional pasta making techniques and vintage Italian equipment since 1923, and the first food production facility in North America to be third party certified organic. Whole durum wheat and whole brown rice are milled at our organic, AIB rated Superior, Michigan mill. Semolina flour and flax seed flour are prepared at certified organic mills. The flours are blended and mixed with purified water. Slow, thorough kneading prepares the dough. Using a traditional screw press the dough is extruded through an artisan brass spiral die, cut and spread on drying racks. A patient drying process using hot steam/air finishes the pasta perfectly before it is packed. They spend about 16 hours in the final drying room. Each step helps to create pasta of exceptional flavor, texture and character. The pasta is packaged in a reclosable box, with a delicious recipe and photo from Eden's kitchen printed on the back.
All Eden Organic Pasta is packaged in boxes made from recycled and recyclable paperboard, one of the most environmentally friendly packages available. According to the 100 percent Recycled Paperboard Alliance (RPA100.com), "Fourteen trees are saved for each ton of paperboard converted to 100 percent recycled paperboard. Trees are critical to the sequestration of CO2 (a greenhouse gas) in North America. For each ton of paperboard converted to 100 percent recycled paperboard, an equal amount of recovered fiber has been diverted from municipal landfills. Production of 100 percent recycled paperboard uses 50 percent less energy compared to virgin grades of paperboard, thus significantly reducing the greenhouse gases released into the environment."
Whole grain is the heart of a healthy diet providing the broadest spectrum of nutrients in the proportions that we need for good health and well being. Commercial pasta is made from highly refined chemically treated flour, processed in minutes through Teflon dies and ultra high heat or microwave drying, resulting in inferior flavor, diminished nutrition, poor cooking quality, and questionable value.
Scientists at the USDA Human Nutrition Research Center at Tufts University say, "Whole grains help regulate blood sugar by slowing down the conversion of complex carbohydrates into sugar. In fact, low-glycemic index foods such as whole grains reduce hunger and can help to control weight." Scientists at the Agriculture Research Service completed a study of more than 2,000 people concluding, "at least three or more servings of whole grain foods everyday could reduce the chances of developing metabolic syndrome - a condition marked by a combination of abdominal obesity, high blood pressure, poor blood sugar control, low HDL 'good' cholesterol and high blood fats."
According to the FDA, "Diets rich in whole grain foods and other plant foods and low in total fat, saturated fat, and cholesterol may reduce the risk of heart disease and some cancers," and "Low fat diets rich in fiber-containing grain products, fruits, and vegetables may reduce the risk of some types of cancer, a disease associated with many factors." Eden Organic Flax Rice Spirals are made of 60 percent whole grain and provide heart healthy whole grain nourishment. They are low in fat and saturated fat, cholesterol free, and are a good source of dietary fiber. Furthermore, "Diets low in sodium may reduce the risk of hypertension or high blood pressure, a disease associated with many factors." Eden Organic Flax Rice Spirals are very low in sodium with no salt added.
Eden Organic Flax Spirals are made from whole ground flax seeds and provide not only valuable fiber, but also have flax omega 3, 6, and 9 essential fatty acids (EFAs), 1.6g per serving in an ideal ratio of omega 3 and 6, 1 to 2.5. Flax provides powerful phytonutrient lignans. They are an excellent source of thiamin (B1) and magnesium, and a good source of protein, iron, niacin (B3), phosphorus, and zinc.
Flax seed has been used for thousands of years as a food source and for clothing but only recently valued for its nutritional benefits. Flax seeds have been found to contain naturally occurring phytonutrients called lignans that are highly valued. The lignans are found in the hull of the seed shell and in the flax fibers, not in the oil. Grinding the seeds is necessary in order to obtain the valuable nutrients from the whole seed. Research has shown flax seed to potentially be beneficial to joint, cardiovascular, reproductive, nervous and immune system health. Flax seed is also one of the most balanced plant sources of omega 3, omega 6, and omega 9 essential fatty acids (EFAs).
When you bite into Eden Organic Pasta the flavor and character of the grain is evident. Eden Organic Flax Rice Spirals are made from fresh, unbleached, non enriched flour. It doesn't need to be enriched because the grain has not be stripped of its nutrients. Eden Organic Pasta enhances energy, balance, clarity and well being.
Eden Organic Flax Rice Spirals are versatile pasta that's delicious any way you chose to present it. Its spiral shape and chunky size make it a good choice for casseroles and pasta salad, with beans or chunky sauces. Delicious in Pasta with Creamy Mushroom Sauce in our recipe section.

- Meet one of the most unlikely hustlers in Vegas history, a diminutive woman who fleeced casinos and cheats alike.
It's every gambler's dream--find a way to beat the odds and empty the coffers of Vegas casinos. Some people get lucky while others scheme their way to riches. BREAKING VEGAS profiles people who took on the casino system and came away with cash. Sometimes they got away with it, and sometimes the odds--and the law--caught up to them.
Standing 5'3" and weighing about 100 pounds, this mother of four (three from different husbands) is hardly the typical hustler. But that's exactly what Ida Summers was. With nerves of steel and the looks of Elizabeth Taylor, Ida could rake in tens of thousands of dollars in a single weekend--earning the respect not only of the Vegas cheats she wrangled, but also the casino investigators and FBI agents who were determined to bring her down. VEGAS VIXEN features Ida's riveting accounts of her career, along with interviews with her nemesis, FBI Special Agent Dave Spencer.

Here's a collection of stuff we found that is fun and interesting on relationships
Reasons Divorce is Harder on Men Than Women
Research shows that divorced men take a physical beating with increased rates of heart disease, high blood pressure, and strokes. Why is this? According to relationship experts, here are some reasons that divorce is harder on men than women:
Honeymoon Facts:
If you think that honeymoons are all getting down with their new spouse, think again. A new survey found that only 28% of honeymoon couples got busy more than once a day. In fact, 6% said they were so tired from the wedding that they never hooked up ONCE on their honeymoon! (Yahoo)
Rules for a Happy Marriage?
Rockers Avril Lavigne and Chad Kroeger are married, they have some simple rules for nurturing the relationship.
E-xpensive Harmony!
If you're rich and looking for love, eHarmony wants you. They're launching a new service in December called eH+ that will give you a "personal counselor" for a year … for $5,000. Here's how it's going to break down:
"The counselors will be psychologists or certified marriage counselors and will interview eH+ clients over Skype, or via phone. They'll then search the site on behalf of the customer. The client must complete a questionnaire, but doesn't have to bother with filling out or maintaining a profile, making the initial contact with a potential date, or suffering the embarrassment of managing rejections or unanswered queries."
Personally, we'd rather spend 5 grand taking new people to lavish dinners and maybe a trip, but a counselor could be interesting too. (QZ)

New blocks + new machine quilting technique

I love making the Blocks. That part goes easy for me. It's the Sashings and borders that hold me up on finishing. Congrats on getting your wave on with your Bernina!
- March 7, 2014 at 11:55 AM
- Kelly Scott said...
Can I tell you how glad I was to hear that you are a little afraid of free motion quilting? I've made my first quilt and have started to cut out my 2nd but I'm afraid to quilt the first one. It is sitting out all pinned and ready to go. Just hearing you say this has given me the courage (and freedom) to take the plunge and plough ahead!
- March 7, 2014 at 12:26 PM
- Dianne Mitzel said...
I enjoy and visit your blog daily. Are you saying that we can use the walking foot to do the wavy stitch? I guess I thought it was for straight line quilting only. I am determined to get better at this fm stuff and this will certainly help to add this great looking stitch..I have a a1230 and I have used it before, I'll go in now and try this stitch..thanks so much for your expertise and inspiration!

Good stuff!! And I love the shot of the Kona jelly roll!!!

Hello Amy, love your Blog+check in with you every day!
This is such a neat trick that achieves a really nice ripple stipple? on a quilt. I do many Charity baby quilts, some lavish, but some I finish quickly exactly like you've done here! My Bernie is a 210 and I use #3,length 3,width 5 and love the results. The FMQing will come along if you keep at it. After about a year I'm now doing trailing hearts (or trailing leaves) linked together, this was the easiest design for me as a beginner. Thanks for sharing!
P.S. If anyone is interested in more straight line stitching check out "Foolproof Machine Quilting" by Mary Mashuta. All the designs in her book are with a walking foot>so neat!

Hi Dianne! Thanks so much for your sweet comment. And yes! I used my walking foot for this stitch! It worked so great, kept it from getting any puckers, etc. And really easy since the needle did all the work! :)
- March 7, 2014 at 3:47 PM
- amy smart said...
Awesome! Thanks for the great resource. I love my walking foot - it's kind of my security blanket. :)

Thanks for the Shout out, Amy! So glad you liked the Sew and Fold Papers from Triangles On A Roll to make the Flying Geese. Your block looks terrific!

- Georgi said...
Love your quilt!! I just finished some of that stitching on a quilt I'm working on. I have a Babylock Grace and it's stitch #26 ~ I used 4 length and 7 width. I'm pretty happy with it!
- March 7, 2014 at 7:46 PM
- Rebecca Grace said...
I love that serpentine stitch for quilting! Did you make any markings on your quilt top to keep the lines straight, or just eyeball it and use seamlines as reference points?
- March 7, 2014 at 7:47 PM
- Live a Colorful Life said...
The machine stitching looks great. I have always wanted to try something like that because so far I'm only comfortable with straight line. And that jelly roll *sigh*--all those lovely solids...

Hello Amy! Thank you so much for sharing about your wavy stitch. Who knew, I have them, too! They are stitches 74 and 75 on the Pfaff Quilt Expression 4.0. Stitch 75 is nicest though. I'm just learning free motion, so this will be a wonderful stitch to get some things completed before I get proficient at F.M. Your blog always makes me happy!

I really enjoy reading your emails. Thank you so much for taking the time to take beautiful photos that go along with your work. What fabric are you using for the upcoming quilt-along on the We All Sew (BERNINA) blog later this spring? It's really beautiful. Thank you.

I love those blocks! And I just have to say how cool it is that you are doing more machine quilting. You are such an influencer and I'm glad you are showing people that machine quilting is not scary! Isn't it amazing what you can do with a walking foot? Keep it up - I can't wait to see more :-)

I LOVE that Serpentine stitch! I was the most exciting feature for me when I got my new Bernina. Small beans I know, but I'm not too hard to please. Amy-I ADORE the red, gray, yellow blocks you are making! love the colors and your work is great! I check my FMF stash for that yellow floral and to my dismay! I don't have any of it!:( I may have seen some at American Quilting when I was there several months ago…?

Hi, Amy...Erin's mom here. I, too, am intimidated by the quilting (I have no problem doing the piecing and making the quilt top). You have given me the inspiration - and kick-in-the-butt - to try and quilt my triangles quilt from your SS class last September. I'll post a picture when I get it finished. Oh, and I LOVE the Kona Bright Colors Palette roll-up. Maybe my next quilt? Hugs, elaine

Could you show a picture of your ironing board? I can see that it looks like a square right next to your machine. It looks like a good solution to having to get up every time you need to iron a seam.
thank you!

What a great idea to use your walking foot and a stitch other than a straight stitch on your machine. Most of us have decorative stitches and don't utilize them much, at all, or at least to any degree of their full potential. Thanks for a nudge to using them. I have a house block made for a pillow for an attendance giveaway for my Sunday school class. I need to quilt it. I was considering using a decorative stitch for the roof. Maybe I need to think about using more decorative stitches, too! Thanks for sharing your great quilt!

I dearly wish someone knew how to do that serpentine stitch on a Bernina 160 Virtuosa. I've been wanting to use it for ages. The machines does 100s of stitches (of which I use about 3). I just can't figure this one out! I fear it's not possible on this machine. o:(

What a timely post. I love the look of FMQ but am not confident enough in my skills to use it on quilts for other people. I have a quilt I'd been thinking to try a wavy straight-line stitch on but wasn't sure it would look good enough. But yours looks amazing! I feel so much better now.

Thank you for your "Easy table runner" tutorial. I have been holding off on making one that a friend wanted, and then stumbled upon your tutorial and knew it was right for this project. Mine doesn't look exactly like yours, but since mine had to be 58" long I figured I should use wider strips. All in all I love how it came out, and will be making myself one soon. Thanks again! Love your blog.

Hi Amy--Such a lovely and inspiring post! Can't wait to try the wavy stitch as well (it will be my first venture outside of straight-line quilting). My only advice to other machine quilting newbies is go back to the kitchen or dining room table for plenty of room to hold up the weight of bigger quilts while quilting! My little sewing table is fine for piecing, just not quilting...learned that the hard way!

WC Theatre to Present Nontraditional Musical, 'Edges'
Michigan Undergraduates Wrote Song Cycle about Coming-of-Age, Growth and Self-Discovery
November 4, 2013
Wilmington College Theatre will present the musical Edges Nov. 21, 22 and 23, at 7:30 p.m., in Hugh G. Heiland Theatre.
The production is under the direction of Wynn Alexander, with Timothy Larrick providing musical direction; Lois Hock, set and lighting design; and Beck Haines, sound.
Alexander said Edges is not a traditional musical.
Benj Pasek and Justin Paul, then theatre undergraduates at the University of Michigan, wrote a song cycle about coming-of-age, growth and self-discovery.
"It's a show about 20-something, burgeoning adults asking classic coming-of-age questions," he said, noting that characters deal with confronting emotions, escaping expectations and deciphering complicated relationships.
"Beyond its youthful appeal, the show is a compelling and emotive ride that gets audiences of all ages reflecting on their younger years – where mistakes define who you became, love seemed to last forever and reality hadn't hit yet," he added.
Edges is designed to be full of heart, humanity and humor; its pop-culture references, themes of change and freakishly familiar situations are universal and something that everyone can relate to.
The show's most famous song, "Be My Friend," has become commonly known as "The Facebook Song."
The cast includes: Joshua Beck, Kylee Bristoll, Victoria Canby, Phoebe Davis, Nick Hutson, Ryan Macella, Megan McDonough, Bekah Muchmore, Ellen Short and Kevin Wall.
Reservations can be made by contacting the Theatre Box Office weekdays, from 9 a.m. to noon and 1 to 4 p.m., at (937) 382-6661 ext. 267.

08.02.2002 / 14:57
Bilateral development aid is at present the prevalent form of foreign aid as provided by the Czech Republic. This type of foreign aid concentrates specifically on the longer-term projects for cooperation with a restricted number of partner countries defined in the previous chapter. This, however, should not mean a complete elimination of individual foreign aid projects to be carried in other countries provided that they meet the requirements of territorial or sectoral priority of the Czech foreign aid program. The group of the so-called prioritised countries consists mainly of the low and least developed countries. The proportion of foreign aid to these countries should gradually increase so as to be in line with recommendations of the UN and the OECD/DAC; in the OECD/DAC countries currently about 25% of foreign aid goes to least developed countries (LDCs), compared with about 13% in the Czech Foreign Aid Plan for 2001.
Forms of Foreign Development Aid
The projects of bilateral foreign aid may take form of a financial, material or technical aid. Technical aid (consultations, provision of expertise, seminars, etc.) currently represents and in future is expected to represent a very significant part of the Czech foreign aid as this type of aid fully complies with the principles of partnership. The provision of technical aid should make use of the long-term experience of Czech experts in particular sectors as well as using services provided by voluntary workers on the basis of the concept for support of voluntary work in international organisations as developed by the MFA. As for the methods of financing foreign aid, the Czech Republic prefers to provide grants rather than loans. The reason for this is that providing grants is more conducive to maintain the non-commercial character of foreign aid without increasing the debt of an aid-receiving country. In a special form of bilateral aid the Czech Republic is also prepared to provide so-called 'soft loans'. These loans are provided on the basis of a document adopted by the Czech Government no. 389/1999 and entitled Supporting Exports by Providing Long-term Government Loans under Advantageous Conditions. This document is in line with the agreements and principles of the OECD.
Cooperation with Non-governmental Organisations
Apart from traditional foreign aid projects developed by various government departments, an important part of bilateral foreign aid program is the joint financing of foreign aid projects by NGOs that have their own professional expertise at their disposal and, in some cases, are also better able to reflect the needs of aid-receiving countries. Non-governmental organisations also play an important role especially in increasing awareness of global solidarity among the Czech general public, in the area of development training (e.g. training volunteers or specialist workers in the area of foreign aid), and in many other areas. The joint financing of a foreign aid project means that in a project implemented by a NGO the costs are shared, e.g. with up to 80% in most cases provided from the Czech foreign aid budget. General condition for joint financing of a foreign aid projects is for NGOs to make contribution to meet the targets and to implement the principles and priorities of the Czech foreign aid program. This cooperation with the accepted NGOs is in future to be based on the system of accreditation.
Multilateral Foreign Aid
The Czech Republic considers the multilateral foreign aid to be an important part of the Czech foreign aid program. It is expected that this type of foreign aid should account for up to one-third of the total foreign aid program, which is comparable with the average for this type of foreign aid in the OECD countries. At present, this type of the Czech foreign aid projects, as provided under Government Decision no. 153 of 15 March 1995, accounts for 10% of the total foreign aid budget; however, if we count financial contributions made by the Czech Republic to the relevant international organisations (which is in line with the OECD/DAC evidence keeping system), the multilateral foreign aid would account for up to 60% of the Czech foreign aid budget. Apart from the mandatory contributions arising from membership in international organisations (e.g. UN organisations, World Bank and International Monetary Fund), the Czech Republic also makes selective contributions on voluntary basis, mostly for specified purposes, through various agencies. At the same time, the Czech Republic is monitoring the effectiveness of funds provided and the compatibility of activities of an implementing organisation to ensure that they are in line with the targets, principles and priorities (territorial or sectoral) of the Czech foreign aid program. Hence, the multilateral foreign aid can suitably supplement or even directly initiate bilateral foreign aid projects. Czech Republic also takes part in the development activities of the UN and it's various organisations. Within the UN system the Czech Republic will give priority to use so-called 'trust funds' to allow the Czech Republic to join international development projects which may also serve Czech interests and priorities.
The Czech Republic and the EU Development Policy
The document entitled the Summary of Expected Requirements and Obligations of the Czech Republic in the Area of Foreign Aid Policy after the Accession to the European Union is being presented to the Czech Government for information together with this Concept. Upon its entry into the EU, the Czech Republic will have to join the foreign aid system of the European Community (EC). This applies in particular to the Cotonou Agreement, participation in financing the European Development Fund (EDF) and harmonization of customs preferences granted to developing countries (the so-called general system of preferences). These steps will have for the Czech Republic financial, institutional as well as organizational impacts. With a view to the procedure and timetable of negotiations on the financial contribution of the Czech Republic towards the EC regular budget and the country's contribution towards the EDF, as well as with a view to routine changes in the system of providing development aid within the EU, the impacts of the accession in the field of development aid on the Czech Republic's state budget cannot be estimated at present. The opportunities, the Czech Republic will have after joining the EU development aid system, will include above all its appropriate influence on directing this aid to territories corresponding with the foreign policy priorities of the Czech Republic. By properly ensuring the organizational part of bilateral and multilateral development aid, targeted appropriation of the two components of the aid ('Czech' and 'Community') can well complement each other and thus guarantee greater effectiveness. Entities in the Czech Republic will also have the opportunity to participate in the realization of development projects and other business activities funded from the EDF.

0/53/18 is the best threat build.
5/53/13 is slightly worse but still better than reckoning.
Reckoning, especially 5 points in it, is the least threat you can get for the points anywhere. Sad but true.
1/2 Spiritual Atonement is fine for most people
Judgments of the Just is not optional
Get 3/3 Ardent Defender.
Edit again:
Don't use the consecrate glyph (it messes with 969 rotation - if you don't know what it is, find out)
Likewise, you only need 1/2 in improved judgments.
The judgment glyph is pretty bad.
Seal of Vengeance glyph is awesome.
If you want single target threat, glyph avenger shield.

The monolithic three story fast food joint and fuel station seem oddly out of place in what appears to be a rather run down area of the city, even if it is emerging as a new urban center. Stranger still is the over-exuberant effort to turn McDonalds into a special culinary experience that deserves protection from the nearby fuel station. But perhaps we are unfairly looking at the project with biased eyes that are perfectly comfortable to lump junk food and dirty fuel in one humdrum space.
Nonetheless, the architecture itself is compelling, with decks jutting out from intermediate spaces between the three levels, which includes an open air terrace that overlooks the neighborhood. Water features and the vegetated spaces (we wish they could be heads of lettuce!) give the space a calming, natural aspect while also offsetting some of the fuel station's environmental impact. One thing is for sure, if you didn't know about a place called Betumi, Georgia, you do now!

Holiday History: What May Have Been Served at the First Thanksgiving
The first Thanksgiving is a subject of a lot of speculation, but historians seem to agree that our current holiday traditions were born out of the values of hearth and home that evolved much later than this initial feast. Though the meal as a whole looks very different than what we're used to, some of the very first dishes passed around the table featured ingredients we still use today. Looking to host an authentic autumn feast? When possible, we've included recipes that hearken back to the pilgrims' plates.
Still set on serving a turkey for your Thanksgiving feast? Try one of the these great takes on turkey.
By Linnea Zielinski
Even if it wasn't a turkey, the bird enjoyed at the first Thanksgiving might have been stuffed. Native Americans and the English both occasionally stuffed birds and fish, and in America the pilgrims had access to a lot of components that fill modern-day stuffing, like onions and a variety of "herbs" grown in their new gardens, which included hearty vegetables like parsnips, turnips, cabbage, and carrots.

Visiting near New York on Christmas [...] Time for the Kodak Moment on Times Square, and then off to a show that my 7- and 6-year-olds loved, as did my 12-yr-old niece...and me, the 40-something dad!We know the storybook, the Seuss movie, and the Jim Carey movie. This show was a superb adaptation, with a terrific narration twist! We loved it. 85 minutes, no intermission; good idea to take the little ones to the restroom first.

The show was great
Our five grandchildren, ages 5-10, enjoyed Patrick Page and the whole cast thoroughly.
The show was greta my 6 and 9 years old boys loved the special effects, the scenery and the characters. My tickets were lost, so I had to settle for worse seats, which really took away from the experience.

How the Grinch Stole Christmas the musical debuted in 1994 in Minneapolis. Since 1998, this family show based on the Dr. Seuss book by the same name has been thrilling audiences annually at the Old Globe Theatre in San Diego. Directed by Jack O'Brien with lyrics and music by Timothy Mason, the show was first adapted from the original score written by Mel Marvin. Keeping songs from the television special with lyrics written by Dr. Seuss, three new songs were added in 2007 including "This Time of Year," "It's the Thought That Counts" and "Fah Who Doraze."
The theater production was transferred to Broadway in 2006 under the direction of Matt August. It debuted on November 8, 2006, at the Hilton Theatre and ran until January 7, 2007. This was the first production to offer 12 showings per week. In the first week of its December 2006 run, it topped the box office grosses, ultimately ending the 100 week streak of Wicked.
The holiday season just wouldn't be the same without this joyous family friendly production! Purchase your How the Grinch Stole Christmas tickets now before the season is over!
