New to Typophile? Accounts are free, and easy to set up.
Does anyone know anybody doing interesting work with the letterform? I am not talking about new typefaces or anything, but more like someone making chairs out of letterforms or someone doing typography in a non-conventional method. More in the Art realm...
Right now I am gathering names for a possible exhibit on typefaces so any ideas would be welcomed! :) Thanks in advance.
Hi Michael.
A Swiss company just released some pretty cool letterform cabinets. Hopefully someone has a link.
Is this what you are talking about Stephen? If anyone knows the answer to my question it would be you... help! ;)
I think this might be what Stephen meant: http://www.set26.ch/.
www.youshouldliketypetoo.com should be online by the end of January.
It is all type related art.
Man, I wish I could remember the name of the guy from TypeCon this past summer that I helped setup his exhibit. He had all sorts of art created with type glyphs made out of kiln fired clay. He was from Illinois if I remember correctly. He did the Alphabet City display where he took bitmap images of a glyph and projected it onto a board where the negative space was the glyph and the positive space were vertical clay structures of varying height. Anyone else know what I'm talking about?
The typeworkshops by Underware have produced some really interesting typographic works.
That was my stuff.
Agreed on the Typeworkshops, have them down already, they are amazing. Rob, you did the clay work? You have any pictures?
I totally just e-stalked you Rob. Hope you don't mind.
I assume this is you? Flickr is my new google.
Barbara Kruger of course.
Although it was rendered in the font medium, my Panoptic alphabet is more in the Art realm (judging by font sales ;-) -- I can send you a copy of the full "Diamonds" book, set in Panoptica, if you like.
Hey Michael, yeah that was TypeCon. I am working on better photos of those and newer work right now for the website. E-mail me if you want some more info before the site goes up.
Nick, I am surprised to hear that about Panoptic.
Rob, you've combined my two favorite things!
I didn't know anyone who was doing typographic+ceramic art. I'm so delighted to have found out about your work. Very nice. Love the double-sided 'G'. Looking forward to seeing the rest of your work when your Web site goes live.
Nick, I am surprised to hear that about Panoptic.
Well, it sold well when debuted at Veer, but otherwise sales are just occasional.
Really, I don't think experimental faces are a good retail proposition, especially if they're concept faces rather than outright display faces.
Ina Saltz, who did a great presentation at TypeCon, is working on a book, I think.
One of the people she mentioned had done an art/literary concept, whereby a story of several hundred words was split up and individual people had one word tatooed each (they didn't get to choose or know the whole text.)
Ahhh, when worlds collide and the internet works. MAGIC. ;)
Nick you are referring to Shelley Jackson's SKIN project.
I am still waiting for my word.
Forrest: There's a nine-page article on Shelly Jackson's project in the January issue of The Believer magazine. Actually, you can read the whole thing online on their site at this link:
Check the products of Gebr. Knip
Hello again Rob! Sorry for forgetting your name! :-)
Michael Cina wrote: Flickr is my new google.
Amen. =)
Ina talked about another tattoo piece was dealing with the (I believe) Dutch national anthem. Whatever song, it was illegal to perform when not in the presence of the queen or royalty. So, like with the book, individuals were tattooed with words then various photos were taken to compose the entire song.
Here is an idea of it:
Thank you everyone, very kind. I always feel like a leech posting and running but everytime after I post, I am glad I did.
My brain almost burst upon first seeing these.
oded ezer has done interesting works involving type
This book has some intriguing experiments in the last section, clothing in letterforms, 3D letters that cast shadows of different weights and letters grown in petrie dishes are some that I remember.
Tim, your Amazon link is broken (for me at least). What is the name of the book you're speaking of?
Type One
(subtitled discipline and progress in typography)
S. Bilz, M. Mischler, N. Thonen, Robert Klanten (Editor)
Broken for me too, sorry about that.
you might be interested in this forth-coming project I've been involved with.
also, i'm assuming you are aware of this exhibit?
Now that logo of Red-Dot-Design-Preis looks weirdly familiar...
Amy, I was disappointed to see Helvetica as the main head for your sono site.
How 'bout a nice script font?
How 'bout a nice script font?
ha! good one, nick!
"My brain almost burst upon first seeing these."
Wow. I..yeah, wow.
jonathan barnbrook's stonecarvings are pretty nice,
theyre at www.barnbrook.net under other.
this is not new, but it's pretty...
That is lovely. Nice find.
An old issue of Baseline (should be one of the
20-somethings) had an article on some German
person who was making clothing out of letters.
Nick, as I've said before elsewhere: Panoptica can't sell well
because it's progressive. Culture and capitalism don't really mix.
a couple more people to check out, both are very successful, one you have heard of...
- - - Ed Ruscha
- - - Tony Hepburn
Tony's type related works are ceramic objects that are actually revolved letters (if you have a hard time seeing it).

Energy Levels of Matter, and So On
Orin P. Gard was often in his own world, as am I. Learned? Genetic? I don't know. I think I'll be writing off his papers at some point - not now, but someday. I don't understand the missile ballistics analyses, but I'm intrigued by a tension I sense in his files and writings between how he earned his living/supported his family and his religious beliefs/desire for a peaceful planet.
Grandpa's notes on the first computer conference in 1946 are the subject of this article in Penn Engineering, which is accompanied by my brief reflections. His thoughts and pursuits were constantly shifting in scale and focus, and I love this legacy of an active mind. He speaks to me through his papers more directly than he could in person, singular as a dinosaur. What is gone is so important, and right here.

"There'll be no landing at the lighthouse tomorrow"
St. Joseph Lighthouse, Michigan
photo by Kim W.
Here's a bit of winter magic for February 2, just when I thought winter magic had all run out. Never again will I doubt the serious and whimsical strangeness of the north - how ice clings to ice in impossible shapes of known things, in a spell that only the birds can undo but choose not to. Not yet.

Crytek-authorized fan-made Timesplitters game is go!
The future of the TimeSplitters franchise looked bleak when Free Radical was bought by Crytek and nothing was heard of the series in some time. Now, a fan-made TimeSplitters game will see the light of day before the end of the year, thanks to Crytek and some former Free Radical devs.
Eurogamer is reporting that the game entitled TimeSplitters Rewind is being made using the CryEngine and with assets from the original game, with the blessings of Crytek. Despite fan petitions support for a new TimeSplitters hasn't been vocal enough to convince Crytek to commit to a new game, or even an HD remake of one of the original titles.
TimeSplitters Rewind will feature online multiplayer and single-player challenges culled from the original games. I'd love to see an up-rezzed TimeSplitters game, if only to have a mutliplayer shooter with a sense of fun and absurdity. I mean, playing as a monkey wielding a shotgun was always good for a laugh. A demo is planned for December 2013 so at least we'll find out if the original TimeSplitters formula still holds up soon.

- Sweepstakes
I am wondering if everyone who is entering the PCH sweepstakes is getting the same emails as i am.I was given a email that stated which boutique and hotel that they would be staying at IF i am the announced winner.
The emails they have sent me would make anyone think they are the winner. I am just wondering if everyone is getting the same thing and if so, i feel this is false hope for EVERYONE who is entering and should be made to stop and possibly fined if this is the case. I know my grandmother and mother used to send in faithfully to them and would pray and hope they would b e the winner and also was made tot hi nk they actually stood a chance. Now, almost 30 yrs later here i sit doing the same thing.
What is really sad is the financial bind we have been in and trying to escape but can't seem to which i am sure everyone has here and there. But, i have 4 children who would really like to have a nice christmas for once and a bigger and warmer house to sleep in. I try to do my best working as much overtime to bring in extra income but it is never enough. I find myself scrpping up change week to week.
My family and i have health issues also which is not good being where we are at but we have to live somewhere. I am not asking nor begging for a handout..I do my best with working and trying to provide but, it would be really nice for once to see a sweepstake actually be for real and actually give something to someone if not me atleast someone in need as much as i am or worser. I could have someone do some searching do some very NICE INVESTIGATION and let me know what me and others co uld do about this b ut, i would like to think they are for real and don't just give false hope.
Please someone let me know what you think about PCH.AM i wasting my time filling out those sweepstakes or do i stand a REAL CHANCE?d409d97 review #275630

Add to my remark,I have been a past believer for 40 years,they have it i started in 2007, so they changed it for some reason. SO I have lost faith in there Honesty.
I really thought the had higher scruples than that, and that saddens me as a GOD loving person i will try not to hold animosity towards them in the twilight of my years.

I've only been doing this for a year, a first I was under the impressions from emails from PCH I has won and won big. Truth, this is the last go round for me, the only true hope is what Jesus provides, and He does not lie, simply act. Truth, too much time wasted on deception of a win, supposedly already won. Truth, Pray that you get delivered from this trap and refocus on the real world, giving thanks for what you do have, not what your desiring and you will find that with all the circumstances, you are Blessed!1 0 Reply

Sealy Texas Mom with 4 kids;
I receive same emails, they tell me at what florist they will
Be visiting in my town to buy my roses, technology makes
This easy for them to do, when u sign up with pch you give them
Your address,city,state,zip code, therefore it is easy for them to locate neighboring
Businesses such as hotels,florists,roads that may lead to your house, Please don't let this discourage you. On pch's home page it gives you your odds Of winning these big dollar amount prizes so the chance is slim however there IS A CHANCE,and somebody has to win and you stand just as much of a chance as anyone else, so KEEP ENTERING, PLAYING,and keep DREAMING!IT COULD HAPPEN!!!

PCH is one of the longest running scams! I knew people that always bought a ton of magazines because they thought they would win something. They are in business to make money not lose it. It's all a scam to get people to buy s.hit from them. I still cannot believe people fall for this bulls.hit.2 0 Reply

Guys, read the fine print and pay attention. They make it clear that you aren't a guaranteed winner, and I have gotten several emails like the one described. It's part of the marketing, and if you really read the email, you'll know you don't have to purchase to win, and that the winner hadn't been decided. They send those emails to pretty much everyone who enters, so you really don't have a valid case here. Sorry.1 1 Reply
Joe from Arizona Aug 17, 2012
I have entered by returning the mailings for many, many years. I started entering online when I got my first computer 22 years ago! As far as the comments about being confused and thinking that you are the winner, each mailing has a seperate paper in it that explains the odds and that no purchase is neccesary. The same information shows on the screen for internet entries. And then there is praying to God to win. I am a believer, but I think God has a lot more to do than to get involved with the PCH sweepstakes. After 22 years of entering I am not going to stop now! I'll keep entering until I assume room temperature! Good luck to all.2 0 Reply

pch is a real contest....however they never say you are the winner they say keep sending in the documents with maybe magazine offers ...so you can spend and you will keep your chance at maybe winning..you dont have to buy any they say.....i received the same letter saying a certain hotel and blah blah....but the odds are slim....i know a girl in montreal who did win a million dollars....but they never say you are the winner cause they dont know until the time comes to draw....the superbowl weekend they do the usa live draw...they have for many years,,,...the way i look at it whats a stamp... and to the first person who wrote about the money problems...look around hunny we are all like that....we all scrap money each week..return bottles...its a tough world right now and i have done alot more then that to get by...and no not sold my body lol.....just stay strong....god bless2 0 Reply

OK, Well this is to let you know that PCH was not just sending me that as you describe..I was actually getting very misleading information stating that i was GUARANTEED to win a SUPER PRIZE. And it went on stating that i will be very SURPRISED. There was no odds of winnings or anything like to state or to appear that it was just another entry for a contest. On that note, I know that the attorney gen. in CA actually sued PCH for this very same thing. NOw, i am going to take my printed out copies from my EMAIL and take to the attorney Gen myself and see what can and cannot be done with this matter. I felt like PCH would live up to th eir word but i was very mistaken. I see now and understand what PCH is about and doing with consumers and it is certainly not FAIR and not right no way, shape or form. Anyhow, i have tried to get answers from PCH and othe rplaces on here to no avail for the emails i was sent just answers stating that it was another form of entry which is not true. It had no listed odds of winnings..no words or lettering to state that it was nothing more than a entry for another contest. I see what this is all about now. Now, i am done with this and i am taking it to the attorney Gen to see what they feel on this matter. Thank you for trying to explain but i am not buying. Anyhow, have a wonderful evening.2 0 Reply

Hello. This is the Consumer Affairs group from Publishers Clearing House. Thanks to all who have posted on this site for your interest in our comapny and our promotions. We wanted to let Mollieuva, who has posted her note above, know that PCH really does award prizes. Since 1967 Publishers Clearing House has awarded over $226 million in prizes and awards.
While we would love to make everyone a winner, the odds of winning are much like your state lottery. Millions enter for a chance to win and we never know who will be the winner until we conduct our random drawings. We do provide consumers who receive our entry opportunities the names of local florists and hotels that we would use in thier areas IF they were the winner but we have no way of knowing ahead of time where our winners might be.
Always remember that no purchase is ever necessary to enter or win and a purchase will not increase your chances. Our winners come from all backgrounds and from coast to coast.
Questions on our sweepstakes can be found at the ASK US section found on pch.com.

I am printing EVERYTHING i get from PCH and keeping a copy for my records. Even stuff that i may post or comment i make on their facebook regarding their "mega" prize..I am hoping that there is a reason and a good one behind it that they are deleting everything i post on there including positive comments. I am still going to have everything checked out and verified if i don't hear something back regarding the email i was sent without stating that i am not a winner and also without stating the odds of winning. It is very much a misleading email if nothing else and i am just sick of companies getting by with this esp with people who is in very much need of the financial help. I am praying that i am getting the right feeling and that my co workers is not right. That i have faith and GOD is going to make good on this. I don't feel god want continue to give me the urge and want to continue to pay once more due to not believing in these super sweepstakes. Hopefully, this one will prove me wrong and come in the time of need that could not be any better. Please people pray that i am right or atleast pray that my investigation will work out. Thanks to everyone who has sent emails and information. It surely will help alot.1 0 Reply

Well..Yesterday was the so called FINAL day for entry of the 5000 a wk and 1 million bucks...I am praying that i am getting the correct information from them in email which ANYONE would assume i would win something. I am praying for this so it can change my life and bring so much happiness for me and my kids..It could not come at a better time. I have seen so much stuff online ....including how they have been sued for sending false information ..I seen w here they had to pay over 38 Million i believe..I may be wrong about the amount..but..they had to pay close to that amount. I know if i don't hit it this time. i am going to see to it that they don't send anything like this again. I have a few people who can investigate them and also the emails i have recieved to assure anyone if they have recieved them that they would believe that they have won. Esp the part that claims ..anyhow it goes i will recieve a BIG suprise and everyone loves super prizes. It states even more ...as far as stating the hotel they would be staying at..the flower place they would use..and so on ..again to make one think oh wow..i won...But..i am very skeptical about this whole thing...But for some reason it is like GOD is telling me not to give up..it will happen...but with so much bad kluck here lately....I have about gave up on thinking we would win anything..but...am hoping the PCH would prove me wrong and help me out here in a much needed time..I know so many could use it as much as me..but..i... guess it will be what it will be..Keeping the faith that these emails are not misleading information. I guess we shall see huh?..Thanks all for the information provided. Show more0 0 Reply

What is Stikwood?
Stikwood is a radical new approach to modern wood wall decor, the worlds first peel & stick solid wood planking. Transform any room with real wood quickly and cost-effectively. Stikwood comes in a variety of looks from contemporary to rustic. An innovative interior design solution, Stikwood is economical, environmentally responsible, and offers you endless creative design solutions.
LOCATIONS:Commerical/Retail space, will it work?
Absolutely, in fact stikwood is ideal for commercial space. Stikwood will transform a space in hours. There is minimal hardware and no voc's. A space can be transformed without interfering with customers.
Yes, Stikwood can be and often is used on ceilings. You will want to make sure the ceiling is not "too rough"as many ceilings are often the popcorn texture. If the ceiling is popcorn texture, it may need to be sanded first. If you are unsure whether or not your ceiling needs to be sanded first - try a sample piece first and/or send our support team a photo.
Yes Stikwood can go on a door or cabinet with ease. Make sure to use a J Roller to ensure maximum bonding between the surface and the adhesive.
Stikwood is not designed for outdoor use. Without the adhesive, professionals who are knowledgeable regarding the properties of real wood products have used Stikwood in some outdoor applications. Stikwood is recommended as a semi-permanent interior wall décor.
Some textured surfaces will adhere to the Stikwood products with ease, while others (that are less smooth) may have a few issues achieving maximum bonding. We recommend that if the surface is too textured, you sand the texture down, clean the area of dust/debris, then apply the Stikwood to the now smooth surface.
We are currently testing a new adhesive that is designed for temporary uses. In the meantime, We recommend nailing/screwing a thin piece of primed and/or painted plywood to the desired surface and applying Stikwood directly to the plywood.
Stikwood will not be effected by a stove/fireplace as long as the surface you plan on covering is not too hot to touch. If your project meets this requirement, you should have no problem using Stikwood!
Stikwood is not ideal for bathrooms due to the moisture. The moisture level of the surface must be less than 9%. At Stikwood, we have the ability to apply a sealant to the back side of the wood productions during production at a cost of $1 per square foot.
You do not absolutely need to seal Stikwood when used as backsplash. If you are concerned about water exposure we can seal it during production for an additional $1.00 per sq. ft.
Stikwood will stik to any interior surface. The surface needs to be clean and smooth. If sticking to a wall that is not painted, you need to put a coat of primer and let it completely dry.
That depends, you need to calculate the size of the space you want to transform. Boxes come in 40 or 20 square feet. 1. you need to measure the height and width of your space in inches. 2. Multiply the two numbers. 3. Divide the sum by 144. We recommend ordering 5% extra for trimming.
Stikwood can be found online at www.stikwood.com, as well as at selected retailers,check out our website www.stikwood.com for a list of the retailers near you.
Stikwood can be found online at www.stikwood.com, and we do ship internationally with a limited number of retailers in other countries. Each country taxes/duties/customs fees vary and are the responsibility of the recipient, contact your local customs agent for information regarding international customs fees.

Stikwood runs promotions, coupons, and contests throughout the year. Become friends with us on Facebook, Twitter, Instagram, and Pintrest to find out about upcoming promotions and new products that may be introduced. Join our mailing list for special promotions and "be the first to know" updates from Stikwood.
By multiplying the length times the width in feet of a wall you can find the square feet area you will need. You can also use the Stikwood online calculator if using inches. We do recommend a 5% waste factor in your calculations when ordering Stikwood.
The smallest amount we do offer are boxes of 10 sq. ft. This is not an option on the website so when you are ready to place your order please call 866.266.8354 or email us at email@example.com

All returns require prior approval and must be accompanied by proper Return Authorization documents to assure credit. Please contact customer service within 30 days of receipt to process returns. A 15% restock fee and return shipping will apply.

Stikwood is shipped in boxes that contain 20 to 40 square feet.
Yes, in fact take all of your trimmings and tape peelings and put them in your box and put the whole thing in your recycle bin.
A vacuum attachment can easily remove any dust.
Stikwood is 100% real wood planks.
Our Reclaimed Barrel oak is the only product that comes in a 2" width; the remaining Stikwood products come in a 5" width.
Stikwood is 100% real wood planks that can be used to transform any wall in your home.
Our reclaimed woods are 3/16" thick; our sustainable hardwoods are 1/8" thick.
Yes! Stikwood adhesive system is considered a semi-permanent interior wood solution.
Not at all. The description designates the way the bamboo is laminated into the sheet. Strips are stacked vertically and pressed edge wise versus laid horizontally and press face wise.
You can use a miter box or a miter saw for the best results.
If the Stikwood is applied correctly using all of the recommended directions for application, there should be no issues of not sticking. If, by chance, you are having issues it is likely that the surface area was still damp before application, or was not cleaned properly. Stikwood is a real wood product, so in the event of any curling or non-sticking, just apply a couple of small tack/pin nails and enjoy your transformation with ease.

I read a great blog entry on Spark People about not concerning yourself with what other people think. Actually, the main topic was wearing a bathing suit when you are overweight but it lead to the main point that you just have to do your own thing and say phooey on what others may think.
I agree with that. I had an epiphany a few weeks ago and posted it on my Facebook page as a status update: �If you spend all of your time worrying about what others think, you�ll have less time to spend with those whose opinion you do care about�. Not the most eloquently worded piece of advice but it makes sense to me. My epiphany happened after I�d finished a 2 mile walk/jog during my lunch break. It was an unusually mild weather week and I took advantage of it to have an outdoor workout. After my walk/jog, I flopped down under a shady tree to stretch and drink my water. For a split second, I thought �What will people say when they drive by and see me sitting here, red faced and guzzling water?�
Then I realized, I didn�t really care what people thought. That was my epiphany.
When we are overweight, we are self-conscious. We tug at our shirt tails to pull them down over our broad backsides. We avoid swimming pools. Because we care what other people think. Then when an opportunity to make ourselves healthy comes along, we let others interfere with that too.
�What will they think if I say no to dessert?�
�I don�t want anyone to see me running.�
�I can�t lift weights with all of those muscle heads around me�
It�s hard to change your lifestyle. It�s hard to be the one ordering grilled chicken while everyone else has a slab of ribs. It�s not always fun to go to bed early so that you can make your AM workout. It might make you different. It might make you stand out. But guess what? You were different already when you were overweight. Isn�t it better to be different for a good reason?
I remember a friend telling me about a larger man who ran every day. Everyone noticed him. I�m sure more than a few had snide remarks to make. Sadly, I�m sure a few yelled them at him as they drove by. �He kept running,� my friend said. �And suddenly, he was getting smaller and smaller and I�m sure now people wonder what happened to the fat guy.�
I�m sure it was hard for this guy to get out and run but he did his thing and it paid off. Our health is ours and we can�t let others bully us out of improving it.
Hello everyone!
Long time, no post. Sometimes that can mean bad things but I'm doing just fine. I actually started a new blog on wordpress and I've been using it as my journal. But I wanted to update here too.
I'm in Week 3 of Rachel Cosgrove's Female Body Breakthrough which is a strength training program for women. I love it! Who knew weights could be so fun? I have been slacking on cardio-which the book recommends-and I admit I'm a little skeptical. I'm trying to work in fun cardio when I can like water aerobics and zumba. I just don't have time to do everything in the mornings. I suppose I could "double dip" like one of my friends and work out mornings and at lunch. But that's a lot of hair and makeup work :)
I tried yoga last night and as always, my cat had to join in. He laid down in the middle of my mat and was stretched out under me during plank (that's pressure to stay in position) and swishing his tail in my face during cat pose. Doing cat with a cat, it's kind of funny.
Sooooo, my last entry was a bit of a downer. After some kind words and straight talk from some Sparkies and non-Sparkies alike, I've come to realize a few things.
1) One bad run doesn't mean I'm a failure. After I thought back at that week, I realized I did two days of C25K, water aerobics for the first time and pilates all prior to my bad Friday.
2) I shouldn't feel guilty because I am not in love with C25K. Everyone is different. I like trying new things like zumba and I shouldn't have to pass those up in order to keep on running schedule. Doing that just makes me resent running even more.
My solution? It's still in progress. Last week, I did not run but I went to zumba one night and water aerobics another night. This week I plan to start a strength training program from the book Female Body Breakthrough. As for running, I know that intervals of running are effective fat burners. I will keep doing them when my body tells me that it wants to. When it tells me it wants to shake its groove thang at zumba then we'll zumba on those days. Workout programs like C25K are great but I can't let them stress me into not working out. That defeats the whole purpose of why I'm here.
I started Couch to 5K back in May. At first, I was very excited to have this new goal to work towards. Lately? Not so much.
I've written before that I don't enjoy running. I want to enjoy it because I know it burns calories, you can do it anywhere and I'm stubborn enough to really want to be able to do something that I've never been able to do.
But lately, I'm struggling. I'm not a fast runner and when the program says "Run 10 minutes or 1 mile" and my mile is more like 12 minutes, I feel a little down. I couldn't force myself to run the 25 minute run that ends Week 6. I ran about half and walked the rest. My hubby gave me a pep talk and I know that I have to work my way up through the program at my pace but I'm still starting to wonder if it's worth it. Do I spend my precious few hours a week of workout time doing something I really don't like?
One of my friends who started the program with me says that she's accepted the fact that she probably won't ever be able to run a 5K. But I'm not sure I'm ready to accept it. Isn't that just giving up?
I�ve been having a hard time getting back on track after my vacation. For the record, I weighed today and I�m where I was pre-vacation so it�s all good.
I logged my food last week but had a hard time getting my exercise mojo back. I walked 2 miles with a friend on Monday night, worked out Tuesday morning and golfed Wednesday. And that was it for the week. I couldn�t make myself get back into C25K. I have to do that this week, I refuse to give up.
One of the bloggers that I read faithfully wrote last week about buying some sort of wellness journal. It was a specially made journal designed specifically to track exercise, food intake, and overall wellness. I love journals, that is, I love to buy journals but then I find that I have nothing to write in them. In fact, I started a �Better Living� journal back in 2008 and wrote in it three times. (It�s a really cute journal though).
Keeping that in mind, I decided not to purchase the fancy smancy journal but to try to write in my existing book. I�m still going to blog here and track everything in Spark. The journal will be used to track my mental wellness and how I feel on good workout/eating days versus bad ones. I�m hoping this will give me some extra encouragement to keep on Sparking. I have to admit that maintenance is scaring me a lot.

"She's a tiger," says Gail Lightfoot. "She's relentless. She's not going to let go of this. She absolutely is not going to give up."
Taitz admits it gets hard sometimes. Her husband objects to all the time spent away from home, late-night phone calls and money spent flying across the country. Taitz wishes she could see her sons more. And she's increasingly convinced her life is in danger, most likely because of personal attention from Obama. Two weeks ago, her husband's car went to the shop with mechanical problems. Then her car had a fuel leak.
And then she got this blog comment: "Did you know that if you tried your citizens' arrest bullshit and tried to forcibly remove the president, I and millions of others would shoot you on spot and burn your body for the world to see???????? YOU LITTLE FUCK." After filing a report with the Orange County Sheriff's Department, she traced the commenter's IP address to Everett, Washington. Suddenly, everything clicked. "I'm wondering if it's someone who knows Obama," she says, "because his mother, Anne Dunham, used to study at the University of Seattle, Washington. This person is at Everett, Washington, which is very close to Seattle."
She's currently looking for volunteers to investigate the matter in Washington. And, if she needs to, Taitz will go there herself.

That is a weird thing to be obsessed with. How did she get involved with that? That is funny.
"Taitz smiled and pontificated in her Eastern European accent about the clerks of the Supreme Court whom she believed had been sabotaging her lawsuits."
"who" not whom, you Mrs. Grundy. Doesn't anybody 'roud here play this game?
It's the subject of "been sabotaging," not the object of "believed."
It is not a question of obsession-but it is the biggest scam in history- The American people have been deceived by the biggest FRAUD in history- To some people who are not overly concerned- well they should be concerned- The only president to hide his past history and it cost his backers (controllers) millions to hide everything and many more millions to keep it out of the newspapers & TV-
Very interesting and intriguing piece.

Fowler shoots 65, sits one back at N'wide
Rickie Fowler shot a tournament-best 6-under 65 Friday at the Nationwide Tour's Soboda Classic and will enter the weekend in a tie for second, one shot back of leader Jerod Turner.
Fowler's opening-round 70 included two birdies and one bogey. He also made just one bogey Friday but added seven birdies, including two on his final two holes. He started the round tied for 28th.
Fowler, who lost in a playoff at the Nationwide Children's Hospital Invitational this summer as an amateur, missed the cut in his professional debut last week at the Albertsons Boise Open with rounds of 73-71, just days after leading the U.S. Walker Cup team to victory at Merion.
Titleist announced last week that it had reached a multiyear equipment deal with Fowler. This week, Puma announced that it had signed Fowler to an apparel and footwear deal, surprising him with a motocross-inspired golf cart as a welcome gift.

Next Level BS Exclusive: Kahler Nygard Interview On His TSA Harassment In Denver
Published on Sep 15, 2014
" Our third episode is an exclusive interview with Kahler Nygard, getting the full story on the video he posted last week, showing some startling TSA harassment after he landed in the Denver International Airport. TSA agent Alex Grossman demanded that Kahler go through "additional screening" of his person and luggage, upon arrival in Denver. The mainstream media has continually distorted this story, doing everything from labeling Kahler as a suspected Somali terrorist, to trying to defend the TSA by implying Kahler didn't get complete screening at this departure airport in Minneapolis. Next Level BS get's the story straight from Kahler Nygard himself. "

A Single Trip For Obama To Play Pool, Drink Beer And Raise Money Cost Taxpayers About $700,000
" Taxpayers had to cough up $1,159,823 in just one month to fly President Obama to New York and Denver to raise money for Democrats and attend an LGBT event, according to documents obtained by a taxpayer watchdog group.
Judicial Watch told Secrets that the Air Force just provided expense reports detailing the flight costs of Air Force One to the cities in July.
The documents show that president's July 8-9 fundraising trip to Denver cost the taxpayers $695,894.10.
His July 17-18 fundraising trip to New York City cost taxpayers $463,929.40.
Travel costs are typically a small portion of presidential trips. Judicial Watch said that the U.S. Secret Service has not complied with a request to detail security expenses and the costs of housing and moving the president and his staff are also unknown. "

Wintry Summer Blast Arrives In The West With Record Cold And Snow
" The calendar may still say summer, but old man winter barreled his way in to ruin the fun, dumping up to 20 inches of snow across the Rockies and sending temperatures plunging to as low as 10 degrees Fahrenheit in Wyoming, with wind chills — yes, wind chills — in the 20s as far south as Denver, Colorado, on Friday morning.
It's not unusual to see snow in the Rocky Mountains or even in Denver in September, but the strength of this cold air mass, and the snow totals, were both noteworthy.
The snow caused major tree damage in Cody and Buffalo, Wyoming, where up to 10 inches fell on Wednesday night and Thursday. According to the National Weather Service, this was earliest recorded snowfall for Cody (by one day), where records date back to 1915. The temperature in Jackson, Wyoming, dropped to 18 degrees Fahrenheit on Friday morning. "

EPA Employees Told To Stop Pooping In The Hallway
" Environmental Protection Agency workers have done some odd things recently.
Contractors built secret man caves in an EPA warehouse, an employee pretended to work for the CIA to get unlimited vacations and one worker even spent most of his time on the clock looking at pornography.
It appears, however, that a regional office has reached a new low: Management for Region 8 in Denver, Colo., wrote an email earlier this year to all staff in the area pleading with them to stop inappropriate bathroom behavior, including defecating in the hallway.
In the email, obtained by Government Executive, Deputy Regional Administrator Howard Cantor mentioned "several incidents" in the building, including clogging the toilets with paper towels and "an individual placing feces in the hallway" outside the restroom."
Colorado Gun Laws Argued In Federal Court
U.S. District Judge Marcia Krieger
" Colorado's new gun restrictions went on trial Monday as Second Amendment advocates seek to overturn the laws on grounds that they violate constitutional rights to keep and bear arms.
An attorney for the state defended the ammunition magazine limits and expanded background checks, saying the measures were a suitable response to high-profile shooting rampages.
In his opening statement, Deputy Attorney General Matthew Grove noted Colorado's tortured history with mass shootings, from the Columbine High School attack in 1999 to the Aurora movie theater massacre in 2012. He also mentioned the shooting spree at Sandy Hook Elementary School in Connecticut in 2012.
Responding to such events last year, "Colorado's elected representatives made a policy decision to pass two pieces of legislation that appropriately balances the state public's safety concerns with the respect of the Second Amendment rights of citizens," Grove said.
Attorney Richard Westfall, representing gun rights advocates, countered by saying the laws "were passed with almost no evidence or data" that they would make people safer, and he criticized lawmakers as trying "to legislate for the sake of legislating in the wake of the Aurora theater shooting."
The arguments in Denver federal court kicked off a two-week trial on an issue that's been among Colorado's most politically contentious in recent memory."

Shotgun Executive Taken Into Custody At Colo. Gun Show
On Cabbie Terror Tip
" Daniele Perazzi, president of the Italian Perazzi Shotguns firm, was taken into custody yesterday by Adams County Deputies [see update, below] along with several prototype shotguns. The executive was picked up in the parking lot of the Denver Merchandise Mart, hosting the high-end Colorado Gun Collectors show this weekend, after a taxi driver, likely reacting to a suspicious activity reporting outreach program conducted by law enforcement, told authorities he thought he could be transporting an armed "foreign speaking" terror suspect."
"The cab driver notified law enforcement he suspected he had a terrorist in his cab, and they were waiting to intercept him, evidently oblivious to the fact that he was arriving at a highly-publicized area gun show. "

Colorado Lawmakers – Secret Service Must Arrest Local Sheriffs For Failing To Enforce An Unenforceable LawGraphic by Michelle Morin
" The furor over the signing into law of Senate Bill 13-013 earlier this week by Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper went viral following the publishing ofan article by Mike Opelka at theblaze.com. Opelka suggested that the new law could be "used to arrest or force county sheriffs to enforce the state's new gun laws," whether they wanted to or not.
It was fanned into white heat when World News Daily quoted Colorado State Representative Lori Saine who exclaimed:
This is insane! In theory if a Secret Service agent is in a county where the sheriff has refused to enforce some of the recent unenforceable gun laws, the agent could [ignore the sheriff entirely and] arrest any individual if he believes the law has been broken…
I believe it is intended to be used for setting up a framework so that at some other time they could expand it to possibly include being able to arrest a sheriff who is refusing to enforce unconstitutional laws.
Charley Barnes, writing at K99.com in Denver, further fanned the controversy last Monday when he wrote:
By the sounds of it, Colorado is being targeted with an attempt to set up loopholes that will allow the U.S. Secret Service to arrest and remove an elected sheriff for refusing to enforce the law, or anyone [else] breaking the law."

CO Governor Signs Sweeping Gun Control Bills Into Law
" According to NBC News, Colorado Governor John Hickenlooper has signed into law two gun control bills.
The measures also met resistance from magazine-maker Magpul Industries, which said that it would desert its plant about 30 miles from Denver if the proposed magazine limits became law.
Legislators who had opposed new laws restricting gun ownership said on Wednesday the new gun bills may have electoral consequences for state Democrats.
"We're all in shock here," state Senator Greg Brophy, a Republican, said on Wednesday. "It turns out this guy who everybody thought was a moderate Democrat is actually a gun-control governor."
"I think the governor will be replaced by someone who has Colorado values instead of New York City values," Brophy said. "If Republicans are returned to control we will repeal these bills immediately."
Magpul was unavailable for comment …

The State of Colorado Part I: Denver Day of Resistance (VIDEO)
" Protesters from across the state of Colorado scaled the steps up to the capitol building in Denver, rallying against the proposed gun control measures legislators will be voting on later this year. It was called the Denver Day of Resistance.
At least 400 people made it to the rally (protest organizers told us 500), and passers-by showed their support by honking regularly as they drove past the crowd.
There was no counter-protest, there was no conflict with the police, just a few hundred people cheering, singing, praying and showing their support for gun rights. It was one "hallelujah" short of preaching to the choir, although there were plenty of "amens." "

Magpul Draws Their Line In The Sand
"Magpul has made it more than just talk. If the Colorado legislature passes the mag ban law, they will be moving. Going with them will be one of their major subcontractors Alfred Manufacturing. They made the official announcement a couple of hours ago on Facebook.
Denver, Colorado – February 15th, 2013 – Magpul Industries, an Erie, Colorado, based manufacturer of firearms accessories, announced today that it will be forced to leave the state if House Bill 1224, which would ban standard capacity magazines, becomes law.
The announcement was made to Governor Hickenlooper, state legislators, members of the media, and in a full-page advertisement to appear in the Denver Post on Sunday.Richard Fitzpatrick, Founder, President, and CEO of Magpul Industries, said that regardless of any amendments that may be worked into the bill, he will no longer be able to continue to do business in Colorado if his core product is made illegal.""Our company could not, in good conscience, continue to manufacture our products in a state where law-abiding citizens are prohibited from purchasing and owning them. " Fitzpatrick said. "The passage of this bill will do nothing to enhance public safety, but will force us to immediately begin taking our business to another state."
House Approves high-Capacity Magazine Ban, Despite GOP Objections
" The first of four Democratic gun proposals to be heard Friday, a ban on high-capacity magazines, cleared the statehouse on an initial voice vote around 3 p.m. after a six-hour debate.
"Over the course of the last four or five years, we've had 34 mass shootings using high capacity magazines," said Rep. Rhonda Fields, D-Aurora, whose district includes the Century 16 theater where 12 people were killed in a mass shooting last July.
"That is the common thread we see in these massacres. They're using these high-capacity magazines so they can unload as many bullets as they can to kill as many people as they can, in our schools, in our theaters and in our churches."
Republicans also focused attention on Boulder-based Magpul Industries, the $400 million magazine manufacturer now threatening to leave Colorado if this ban becomes law; and, five hours into the debate, the House GOP informed reporters that a Magpul supplier, Alfred Manufacturing, may also have to move its Denver plant, and 150 jobs there, to another state."

2 Children And 1 Woman Killed In Denver Shooting
" DENVER — Two children under 10 years old and a woman were killed, and a third child was wounded at a house in northeast Denver, police said Wednesday.
That child was in critical condition at Denver Health Medical Center.
Officers were called to the home about 6:55 a.m. for reports of a shooting, denverpost.com reported. Police said they were seeking a warrant to further search the property.
Lt. Matt Murray, a police spokesman, said no arrests have been made. He said detectives were not searching for a person of interest, but would not elaborate, according to denverpost.com.
"We have no reason at this point to suspect a killer is on the loose," Murray told reporters. "It's isolated to this address." "

From Powerline :
The other photos are even more impressive , check them out .
" The Denver Post, no Republican outlet, acknowledged how extraordinary the event was:"GOP nominees pack Red Rocks Amphitheater to capacity."
A confident Mitt Romney, two weeks out from Election Day, spoke about his campaign as a movement sweeping the nation during a moonlit rally at Red Rocks Amphitheatre on Tuesday night. … Roughly 10,000 people packed into the concert venue west of Denver, with thousands more turned away at the door. Traffic leading into Red Rocks gridlocked in the hours before the event. The lines to go through security and enter the venue wound through the parking lots. …
Supporters in the audience clacked together Thundersticks, creating a sound akin to a stampede. Musicians Kid Rock and Rodney Atkins warmed up the crowd. Colorado Rockies legend Todd Helton showed up to give his endorsement. And New Mexico Gov. Susana Martinez, a rising star in the Republican Party, also was on the bill, telling the crowd: "There's a guy backstage who has the answers to the problems we face." "
Obama Didn't Know?
" If this is true, it's amazing. And I'm not ashamed to say, it makes me feel giddy. From the Daily Mail UK:
When President Barack Obama stepped off the stage in Denver last week the 60 million Americans watching the debate against Mitt Romney already knew it had been a disaster for him.
But what nobody knew, until now, was that Obama believed he had actually won.
In an extraordinary insight into the events leading up to the 90 minute showdown which changed the face of the election, a Democrat close to the Obama campaign today reveals that the President also did not take his debate preparation seriously, ignored the advice of senior aides and ignored one-liners that had been prepared to wound Romney."
" Andy's latest rant is sure to raise a smile. The great irony is that he identifies the problem with laser precision but is clueless as to the cause.
The Pew poll is devastating, just devastating. Before the debate, Obama had a 51 – 43 lead; now, Romney has a 49 – 45 lead. That's a simply unprecedented reversal for a candidate in October. Before Obama had leads on every policy issue and personal characteristic; now Romney leads in almost all of them. Obama's performance gave Romney a 12 point swing! I repeat: a 12 point swing.
Romney's favorables are above Obama's now. Yes, you read that right. Romney's favorables are higher than Obama's right now. That gender gap that was Obama's firewall? Over in one night:
Currently, women are evenly divided (47% Obama, 47% Romney). Last month, Obama led Romney by 18 points (56% to 38%) among women likely voters.
Seriously: has that kind of swing ever happened this late in a campaign? Has any candidate lost 18 points among women voters in one night ever? And we are told that when Obama left the stage that night, he was feeling good. That's terrifying. On every single issue, Obama has instantly plummeted into near-oblivion."
By Record-high Margin, Debate Watchers Say Romney Did Better
"An Oct. 4-5 Gallup poll finds roughly two in three Americans reporting that they watched the Oct. 3 debate, similar to what Gallup measured for each of the three 2008 presidential debates. Those who viewed the debate overwhelmingly believe Romney did a better job than Obama, 72% to 20%. Republicans were nearly unanimous in judging Romney the winner. But even Democrats rated Romney as doing a better job than Obama, 49% to 39%. "
Michael Barone:
"Wednesday night's presidential debate in which Mitt Romney shellacked Barack Obama attracted the biggest audience since the debate between Jimmy Carter and Ronald Reagan seven days before the 1980 election..
About 70 million Americans watched, a little more than half the 131 million voter turnout in 2008. That's an estimate, because the ratings companies don't count those watching on C-SPAN, PBS or the Internet.
Did the debates matter? The first state polls, conducted by Rasmussen and We Ask America on Thursday night, suggest the answer is yes.
Rasmussen reported that Romney was down 1 point in Ohio. We Ask America had him up 1 there.
Rasmussen had Romney up 1 in Virginia. We Ask America had him up 3. And in Florida, We Ask America had Romney up 3.
These states are important because the Obama campaign has spent millions on anti-Romney ads there, to build a fire wall blocking Romney from getting to a 270-vote majority in the Electoral College.
The arithmetic is fairly simple. The 28 states plus D.C. and one Nebraska congressional district that Obama carried in 2008 have 359 electoral votes this year. Subtract Indiana, which has fallen off the target list, and the Nebraska district, and he's down to 347."
Mr. President …don't quote us.
" AARP bucked the President, telling him to stop quoting them. Joel Gehrke, of The Examinerwrites, concerning AARP's statements:
"While we respect the rights of each campaign to make its case to voters, AARP has never consented to the use of its name by any candidate or political campaign," the group posted in a statement. "AARP is a nonpartisan organization and we do not endorse political candidates nor coordinate with any candidate or political party."
This comes as quite the surprise, especially considering the fact that they were a notoriously large supporter of Obamacare (and benefits tremendously from the ACA). One would think that the lobbying organization would do everything in its power to help the President in his hour of dire need, but it appears as if they've publicly thrown their man under the bus."
Hilarious: Teleprompterless Obama's 51-Second "Uhh" Debate Compilation
"What happened last night was predictable. Mitt Romney was well prepared and, without being uncivil, he went on the attack. Occasionally, policy wonk that he is, he got lost in the weeds. But for the most part he laid out broad themes, and it was easy to foresee what he would say. It was easy because Barack Obama is a sitting duck. His is a failed Presidency — and everyone who has been paying attention who is not blinded by partisan passion knows it.
Obama inherited a recession and, without bothering to disguise what he was up to, dedicated himself to exploiting it for the purpose of jamming through a radical program, dear to his party, that never had public support. About the recession, he did nothing, assuming that the economy would bounce back quickly, as it usually does, and that he would get the credit for the recovery. In fact, everything that he did do when he and his party were fully in control — the looting bill thinly disguised as a stimulus bill, Obamacare, and Dodd-Frank — retarded the recovery by running up the deficit, loading on new taxes, and making it more expensive to do business. To this the President added the threat of further tax increases — targeted on the investing class: those especially apt, when future developments are exceedingly unclear, to be hesitant to risk their hard-earned capital in funding new ventures or in expanding old ones. The truth is that the programs passed by the Democrats, when they had the initiative, produced stagnation and prolonged and deepened the downturn. All that Mitt Romney had to do last night was to draw attention to the level of unemployment, the level of underemployment, and the size of the deficit."

- Summary
- Forged explores art forgery from ancient times to the present. In chapters combining lively biography with insightful art criticism, Jonathon Keats profiles individual art forgers and connects their stories to broader themes about the role of forgeries in society. From the Renaissance master Andrea del Sarto who faked a Raphael masterpiece at the request of his Medici patrons, to the Vermeer counterfeiter Han van Meegeren who duped the avaricious Hermann Göring, to the frustrated British artist Eric Hebborn, who began forging to expose the ignorance of experts, art forgers have challenged "legitimate" art in their own time, breaching accepted practices and upsetting the status quo. They have also provocatively confronted many of the present-day cultural anxieties that are major themes in the arts. Keats uncovers what forgeries--and our reactions to them--reveal about changing conceptions of creativity, identity, authorship, integrity, authenticity, success, and how we assign value to works of art. The book concludes by looking at how artists today have appropriated many aspects of forgery through such practices as street-art stenciling and share-and-share-alike licensing, and how these open-source "copyleft" strategies have the potential to make legitimate art meaningful again.

Police announced an arrest Wednesday in the killings of three Brooklyn shopkeepers.
Salvatore Perrone, 63, is being charged with three counts of murder.
Police previously released surveillance video showing a man walking near the 'She She' Boutique on Flatbush Avenue just after 6 p.m. Friday, near where the most recent shooting occured.
They say they got a tip that it was Perrone and brought him in for questioning.
Police say that bag contained a sawed off .22 caliber rifle, which uses the same ammunition found at all three crime scenes, according to ballistic tests.
Police Commissioner Ray Kelly said the duffel bag was found at Perrone's girlfriend's apartment.
Vahidipour Rahmatollah, 78, was shot to death inside his shop Friday.
After his killing, police discovered the same weapon had been used to kill Mohamed Gebeli on July 6 and Isaac Kadare on August 2.

As the IT director for Bloomfield School District in New Mexico, I faced a major challenge with our infrastructure when it came time to upgrade our network and voice systems to meet our educational and technological objectives. The district, with 10 administrative and school sites, is located in a rural area of northwestern portion of the state, which limited the alternatives available to us. Its network was based on T1 connections, and the bandwidth would not support the education initiatives of the district. It was also very expensive, costing us about $5,900 each month....
