Are you inspired by color? Emily Herrick mixes bold, rich colors and geometric prints to bring you Technicolor, her latest collection for Michael Miller Fabrics. Keep reading for a little chat with Emily of Crazy Old Ladies, and be sure to add some punch to your next project with the vibrant fabrics in Technicolor!
Where did you find your original inspiration for Technicolor?
I love geometric patterns. I often take pictures of architecture, ceilings, and tile patterns. Somehow they all evolve into a fabric pattern eventually.
What was your "aha" moment in designing this collection?
My 'aha' moment came when I realized that these designs would all work well together as a collection. Originally each of them began as coordinates to other ideas in my head. But once I grouped them all together I realized they just worked.
What TV show or movie does your collection fit best in?
That's a tough one. It doesn't really fit the time period but this collection was loosely based on my love of 'The Wizard of Oz' as a kid. I love when the movie changes from black and white to "Technicolor". My market booth was based on this theme.
Tell me about your sewing machines. What kinds do you have and how many?
I have two sewing machines. They are both pretty basic Kenmore machines. The oldest is 13 1/2 years old and I use it mainly for machine quilting. It's a work horse and I love it. I worry every time I use it that it may be my last but she's still going strong. The newer machine is a few years old. "Kenny" replaced his twin brother that I blew up. (Oops!) He is also a basic mechanical machine with a few fancy stitches. He has a speed control which has been great for my 8 year old daughter to learn to sew on. I do all my sewing and quilt piecing on this machine.
What is your favorite part of the fabric industry?
I love the feeling of family and friends. It's a cool thing to get together with people that share your same passions. I've met and made friends with people from all over the world. It's amazing!
From what aspect of your life do you draw creativity?
Whenever I'm in the creative process I often think of my younger years, when I spent so much time drawing and doodling. While my kids were little I didn't do much for me. Now that they're getting a little older and I've embraced my love for craft and design, doing what I loved as a kid makes me feel younger now. That being said, it's a combination of drawing in my younger self and relying on my older self that makes it work today.
What is your design process?
I still tend to doodle quite a bit, but most of the process is done on Adobe Illustrator. There's always multiple files open on the desktop and the kids know if they close one they'll meet the wrath of Mom. :)
What is your favorite print in the collection?
I think my favorite print is the Navy Tile. I want to make a bag out of it but I'm scared. I can sew things flat, no problem. But a 3 dimensional object, YIKES!
What is the most challenging part of the design process?
It depends. Sometimes everything just fits together unexpectedly, like with Technicolor. However, I'm working on a collection right now that's been in the works for a couple of years. I love the concept but getting it to translate on fabric in a way that will appeal to quilters isn't flowing as nicely as I would like. But that's just part of the process. I feel if I set it aside and step away for a few days things have a way of working out.
What projects do you hope to see made using Technicolor?
I would love a cute dress for my daughter. She's 8 so she wants to be grown up but she's still little. The prints in this collection fit perfectly for apparel. As I mentioned before, I'd love a bag. One of my favorite projects at market was a pillow that I didn't even make. Heather Bostic from the book Pillow Pop made the pillow for me and I love it! I'd like to add splashes of color all throughout my house with Technicolor. Lastly, I'd love to see a Crazy Old Ladies pattern made with Technicolor in every quilter's home. :)

When I first heard the phrase 'Big Girl Panties,' I was talking with a colleague about how anxious she became when she had to deal with a situation she preferred to avoid. I was surprised at the level of her anxiety because she was usually very calm whenever I saw her. As we were winding up our coffee, she said to me, "Well, I have to get ready to leave. I guess I should put on my 'Big Girl Panties' so I can be ready!"
Needless to say, I had NO idea what she meant by 'Big Girl Panties.' But, I came to understand that it's essentially the female version of 'man up.' This was an interesting notion to me, 'Big Girl Panties.' Then I started wondering if I had any big girl panties. I thought I did. I mean, I'm pretty tough, right? I've survived four kids, an 'icky' divorce, competitively spar in taekwondo and have avoided charges for aggravated battery – so far. Besides, as a psychotherapist and consultant, people call on me to help them deal with tough issues.
Then I started to think (I know, jokes aplenty) about my colleague and wondered if I am being honest about how tough I really am. Do I put on my 'Big Girl Panties' to deal with my deep, internal conflicts with myself and others or do I just pretend like I do?
This bothered me very much. Am I lying to myself? Am I lacking self-awareness? For several months, this bothered me. Then something interesting happened, I started becoming very annoyed with everyone and it lasted for about a month. Everything rubbed me the wrong way. Then it hit me – I was afraid.
Big girl panties; I wore clean pair every day. I was strong alright, strong for everyone else except myself. I could advocate and move mountains for others but did not believe in myself enough to fight for what I needed. This included everything from enforcing my divorce settlement and parenting agreement to telling people "No." Geez, how sad is that?
Once I realized I wore my big girl panties for everyone except myself, I decided to do something about it. I have to tell ya, I was SCARRRREEEDD. At first I thought it would be easy then quickly realized it was the hardest thing I've ever done. I did a lot of self-talk and reminded myself that I already knew what to do, it was just a matter of doing it. I am proud to announce that after a lot of hard work on taking responsibility for my choices, I now wear my big girl panties for myself and others!
Do you wear big girl panties? If so, when and how do you get ready to put them on? If you do not wear your big girl panties, how come? DO TELL!


text: Truly Superior Sound from Your ComputerAt work or on the go, if you own a computer and love music, you need the NuForce uDAC-3. If you're a gamer, the uDAC-3 delivers realistic sound effects that really put you 'in the game.' If you're a musician and need a quality portable monitoring solution with USB DAC and headphone amp capabilities, then the uDAC-3 is a must. The NuForce uDAC-3 delivers truly superior sound via a high-performance, 24-bit/96 kHz USB Digital Audio Converter (DAC). It allows you to connect digital audio from your computer to your home stereo, desktop sound system, powered speakers, or headphones. Asynchronous USB and DSD SupportEmploying the latest asynchronous USB communication for reduced jitter performance, the uDAC-3 delivers a harmonically accurate presentation. And for limited DSD support the uDAC-3 is endowed with the latest Direct-Stream Digital (DSD) decoding capability (requires NuForce supplied driver and Foobar2000 media player). Additional features include a quality headphone amp and a highly linear TOCOS volume control for improved channel tracking at low listening levels. Purest Analog Circuit TopologyTo further ensure genuine audiophile performance, only the purest analog circuit topology has been employed within the uDAC-3, which among other features includes the elimination of all capacitors from the signal path. The uDAC-3 derives its operating power directly from the USB port of your computer and then engages a special 'boost' circuit that ensures ample voltage is always available for explosive reproduction of high-speed musical dynamics. In addition, USB power means it travels with you easily too, as no bulky external power source is required. Powerful Sound in a Small, Affordable PackageDon't let its diminutive size fool you: the uDAC family packs a real punch when it comes to improving the sound you'll get from your computer; meeting or exceeding the performance of many audiophile-grade CD players. The uDAC-3 is flexible too Its outputs include stereo analog RCA jacks, digital S/PDIF coaxial, and a high-performance headphone output that accommodates most headphones. Why the Little uDAC-3 Can Make Such a Big DifferenceDue to cost considerations, the DAC and headphone amp stages employed in most computers are typically not designed to deliver best-quality sound. This can result in subtle errors in the conversion and amplification processes, which diminishes audio quality. Advanced NuForce design yields a warmer, more detailed and a fundamentally more accurate rendering of the source file. Music through the uDAC-3 sounds richer and fuller with more clarity in the highs, more "body" in the mids, and more depth and power in the lows. You'll hear details in your favorite tunes as you've never heard them before. Your favorite headphones and speakers will finally reproduce sound to their full potential too. Note: NuForce USB Audio devices are designed to work with x86 architecture and Mac OS. Tablet devices running Windows 8 (RT) are not supported.

'Jesus is the reason for the season' sign sparks controversy
His large Christmas decoration has become the cause of controversy.
The homeowner's association says this sign breaks its rules.
Covenants for Mediterranean Villas, off Broadmoor, say signs can't be more than two-feet by two-feet. This one is six-feet by three-and-a-half feet.
Homeowner Tim Meeker believes it's not about the size, it's about the message. He told KEPR he will not take it down, even with the threat of fines.
"I feel this is the reason for the season right here and it doesn't offend anybody," Meeker said. "There was no rule against it last year, what's the problem this year? I'll see a lawyer. If they take it I'll call this police for theft its in my yard, on my property."
To get all sides Action News talked to board members of the homeowners association. They said they didn't ask for the sign to come down last year because Tim had just moved in and they didn't want to rock the boat with a new neighbor.
They say every resident got a copy of the rules and they intend to move forward with legal action to remove the sign.
The board members insist the message about Jesus would be welcome if the sign was the acceptable size.

You're leaving Wedding Paper Divas to see the Deal of the Day at our parent site, Tiny Prints.
You won't be able to dismiss this by usual means (escape or click button), but you can close it programatically based on user choices or actions.
"I had ordered a menu card to use as a Thank You card. Kristen called to help me with my ordered and suggested that I use the response card. I put a picture of us on the front and below it said Thank you and our names. On the back "Thank you for attending our wedding and for those that could not make it you were missed" Blessings & Love It showed up in 5 days. The card is beautiful and just what I wanted. The customer service was excellent!"
"This was the same design used for our beautiful invitations. We personalized with Navy Blue writing and our first names and new family name. It is a piece of stationary that will be used for our thank you cards. But is timeless enough, that we will likely use it for many other family correspondence. We finished with a personalized stamp with the address to our new home! Delivery was super quick and arrived well before the promised date. The paper quality is outstanding, great for writing with a gel pen, glides easily, but doesn't bleed and dries quickly."
"Love the fact that I could match paper and color to my wedding invitations! We chose thanks you notes that did not corredinate with our invitations because the coordinatng thank you design just didn't quite work on a small note card."
"From the beginning of our journey finding the right products to the final receipt, the experience was fabulous. The selections are amazing, the help outstanding. We will be using the company for purchases beyond the wedding needs."
"The quality of this product is very high and matched the invitations and response cards perfectly. We just sent them out so we haven't heard what everyone thought yet but when we asked a few people for advice when we were having trouble deciding this was a clear favorite and we couldn't be happier we chose the seaside palms!"

Milwaukee Brewers: Up In The Air
milwaukee brewers July 11th, 2012
By and large Brewers fans have given up on the 2012 season. It's over they say. Sell they say. Rebuild they say. It's hard not to blame the people that say this. The Brewers currently sit at 40-45, eight games out of first place and six games behind the second Wild Card. A run at this point seems impossible, but as I've said before it isn't impossible only improbable. It's not over yet. Things are still very much up in the air.
And there are at least two people who agree with me on this. One of them is Ryan Braun who said that he thinks the Brewers are "right in this thing" and the other is Doug Melvin who will wait until these next nine games over before making any tough decisions. Some people might think that this is shortsighted or that Doug (or maybe even Mark) are thinking with their heart more than their head, but personally I like it. This isn't Katie and Tom's marriage, there is still time to turn this thing around.
Three teams ahead of the Brewers in the Central. They are all in the thick of playoff contention and the Brewers next nine games are against them. The team deserves a chance to prove itself against those teams. If they don't, sell. If they do? Well.... Read the rest of this entry »

Verbal volleys continue in the conflict about the 16-year-old Mexican tomato suspension agreement, with both sides promising to pull out the big guns.
"Mexico will respond: You should ask those who were in the Mexican crosshairs over the trucking dispute. When Mexico aims, Mexico hits the target," said Auturo Sarukhan, Mexico's ambassador to the U.S.
Sarukhan issued the warning of a trade war to U.S. media after the Department of Commerce said Sept. 27 it might end the trade agreement, which set a floor price for Mexican tomato imports after an anti-dumping investigation.
His reference to retaliatory tariffs concern a cross-border trucking program dispute that included duties on U.S. products including table grapes, potatoes and apples. U.S. supporters of the tomato agreement have said they fear Mexico would reestablish those tariffs if the suspension agreement is terminated.
BrownFlorida tomato growers, who petitioned the Department of Commerce to abolish the agreement, also have strong predictions about what will happen if they get their wish.
"Domestic producers can as well have the full array of legal rights that all other domestic industries have to address imports, if they are believed to be unfairly traded," said Reggie Brown, manager of the Florida Tomato Committee, Maitland.
Brown and Florida tomato growers contend Mexican growers have been undercutting them, despite the agreement, since it was begun. He said last year's "collapse of prices in the marketplace" is what drove them to seek its repeal.
The Department of Commerce made its intentions official Oct. 2 by publishing a notice of intent to terminate the tomato deal in the Federal Register. The department nine months before it must make a final decision. A public comment period lasts until Nov. 2; comments can be made at http://tinyurl.com/MexTomatoes.
Many supporters of the agreement are already on the record with the Department of Commerce.
The Fresh Produce Association of the Americas, Nogales, Ariz., has a list of 370 letters of support from produce businesses, members of Congress, produce associations, chambers of commerce at local and federal levels, retailers, and others on a website: www.savemytomato.com.
BedwellMost supporters cite potential retaliatory tariffs on other U.S. produce and products, higher prices for tomatoes, and negative economic ripple effects as objections to terminating the agreement.

Eurogamer director Rupert Loman talked about the ban here.
"One of the things we also decided was that we didn't want booth babes at the show.
Of course, exhibitors need to bring staff to the show, but they should be interesting, cool and exciting (Master Chief was /amazing/!) and knowledgeable (developers and publisher staff) rather than pretty girls in revealing outfits just for the sake of it. We want the show to be friendly, and all 50,000 attendees to feel comfortable.
At this year's show three companies showed up with booth babes. Two in particular we thought were dressed inappropriately. As a short term measure we told them to move into the 18+ zone, and we asked some of them to put on leggings as well.
Although it was only a small number of booth babes, our regret is that we didn't go further on the first day and just say "this isn't right" and ask them to change their clothes - or not attend. Instead, with the huge pressures of putting on such a large show and everything that comes with it, we let it go. And that's what has prompted this debate – and we're sorry it happened.
For future shows we will be issuing formal guidelines: Booth babes are Not OK. "
I agree with Loman. I've created a poll on the issue. What do you think?

An exhortation to king Lemuel to take heed of sin, and to do duties. (1-9) The description of a virtuous woman. (10-31)
Verses 1-9 When children are under the mother's eye, she has an opportunity of fashioning their minds aright. Those who are grown up, should often call to mind the good teaching they received when children. The many awful instances of promising characters who have been ruined by vile women, and love of wine, should warn every one to avoid these evils. Wine is to be used for want or medicine. Every creature of God is good, and wine, though abused, has its use. By the same rule, due praise and consolation should be used as cordials to the dejected and tempted, not administered to the confident and self-sufficient. All in authority should be more carefully temperate even than other men; and should be protectors of those who are unable or afraid to plead their own cause. Our blessed Lord did not decline the bitterest dregs of the cup of sorrow put into his hands; but he puts the cup of consolation into the hands of his people, and causes those to rejoice who are in the deepest distress.
Verses 10-31 This is the description of a virtuous woman of those days, but the general outlines equally suit every age and nation. She is very careful to recommend herself to her husband's esteem and affection, to know his mind, and is willing that he rule over her. 1. She can be trusted, and he will leave such a wife to manage for him. He is happy in her. And she makes it her constant business to do him good. 2. She is one that takes pains in her duties, and takes pleasure in them. She is careful to fill up time, that none be lost. She rises early. She applies herself to the business proper for her, to women's business. She does what she does, with all her power, and trifles not. 3. She makes what she does turn to good account by prudent management. Many undo themselves by buying, without considering whether they can afford it. She provides well for her house. She lays up for hereafter. 4. She looks well to the ways of her household, that she may oblige all to do their duty to God and one another, as well as to her. 5. She is intent upon giving as upon getting, and does it freely and cheerfully. 6. She is discreet and obliging; every word she says, shows she governs herself by the rules of wisdom. She not only takes prudent measures herself, but gives prudent advice to others. The law of love and kindness is written in the heart, and shows itself in the tongue. Her heart is full of another world, even when her hands are most busy about this world. 7. Above all, she fears the Lord. Beauty recommends none to God, nor is it any proof of wisdom and goodness, but it has deceived many a man who made his choice of a wife by it. But the fear of God reigning in the heart, is the beauty of the soul; it lasts for ever. 8. She has firmness to bear up under crosses and disappointments. She shall reflect with comfort when she comes to be old, that she was not idle or useless when young. She shall rejoice in a world to come. She is a great blessing to her relations. If the fruit be good, the tree must have our good word. But she leaves it to her own works to praise her. Every one ought to desire this honour that cometh from God; and according to this standard we all ought to regulate our judgments. This description let all women daily study, who desire to be truly beloved and respected, useful and honourable. This passage is to be applied to individuals, but may it not also be applied to the church of God, which is described as a virtuous spouse? God by his grace has formed from among sinful men a church of true believers, to possess all the excellences here described.
1. On the title of this, the sixth part of the book,
2. What, my son?--that is, What shall I say? Repetitions denote earnestness.
son of my womb--as our phrase, "my own son," a term of special affection.
son of my vows--as one dedicated to God; so the word "Lemuel" may mean.
3-9. Succinct but solemn warnings against vices to which kings are peculiarly tempted, as carnal pleasures and oppressive and unrighteous government are used to sustain sensual indulgence.
strength-- mental and bodily resources for health and comfort.
thy ways--or course of life.
to that . . . kings--literally, "to the destroying of kings," avoid destructive pleasures (compare Proverbs 5:9 , Proverbs 7:22 Proverbs 7:27 , Hosea 4:11 ).
4, 5. Stimulants enfeeble reason, pervert the heart, and do not suit rulers, who need clear and steady minds, and well-governed affections (compare Proverbs 20:1 , 22:29 ).
pervert . . . afflicted--They give unrighteous decisions against the poor.
6, 7. The proper use of such drinks is to restore tone to feeble bodies and depressed minds (compare Psalms 104:15 ).
8, 9. Open . . . cause--Plead for those who cannot plead for themselves, as the orphan, stranger, &c. (compare Psalms 72:12 , Isaiah 1:17 ).
appointed to destruction--who are otherwise ruined by their oppressors (compare Proverbs 29:14 Proverbs 29:16 ).
10-31. This exquisite picture of a truly lovely wife is conceived and drawn in accordance with the customs of Eastern nations, but its moral teachings suit all climes. In Hebrew the verses begin with the letters of the Hebrew alphabet in order (compare
Who . . . woman--The question implies that such are rare, though not entirely wanting (compare Proverbs 18:22 , 19:14 ).
virtuous--literally, "of strength," that is, moral courage (compare Proverbs 12:4 , Ruth 3:11 ).
her price, &c.--(compare Proverbs 3:15 ).
11. heart . . . trust in her--He relies on her prudence and skill.
no need of spoil--does not lack profit or gain, especially, that obtained by the risk of war.
12. do . . . good--contribute good to him.
13, 14. Ancient women of rank thus wrought with their hands; and such, indeed, were the customs of Western women a few centuries since. In the East also, the fabrics were articles of merchandise.
15. She diligently attends to expending as well as gathering wealth;
16. and hence has means to purchase property.
17, 18. To energy she adds a watchfulness in bargains, and a protracted and painful industry. The last clause may figuratively denote that her prosperity (compare Proverbs 24:20 ) is not short lived.
19. No work, however mean, if honest, is disdained.
20. Industry enables her to be charitable.
21. scarlet--or, "purple," by reason of the dyes used, the best fabrics; as a matter of taste also; the color suits cold.
22. coverings of tapestry--or, "coverlets," that is, for beds.
silk--or, "linen" (compare Exodus 26:1 , 27:9 )
and purple--that is, the most costly goods.
23. in the gates--(compare Proverbs 22:22 ). His domestic comfort promotes his advancement in public dignity.
24. fine linen--or, "linen shirts," or the material for them.
girdles--were often costly and highly valued ( 2 Samuel 18:11 ).
delivereth--or, "giveth as a present" or "to sell."
25. Strength and honour--Strong and beautiful is her clothing; or, figuratively, for moral character, vigorous and honorable.
shall rejoice . . . come--in confidence of certain maintenance.
26. Her conversation is wise and gentle.
27. (Compare 1 Timothy 5:14 , Titus 2:5 ). She adds to her example a wise management of those under her control.
28. She is honored by those who best know her.
29. The words are those of her husband, praising her.
virtuously--(Compare Proverbs 31:10 ).
30. Favour--or, "Grace" of personal manner.
beauty--of face, or form (compare Proverbs 11:22 ). True piety alone commands permanent respect and affection ( 1 Peter 3:3 ).
31. The result of her labor is her best eulogy. Nothing can add to the simple beauty of this admirable portrait. On the measure of its realization in the daughters of our own day rest untold results, in the domestic, and, therefore, the civil and religious, welfare of the people.

Hydroxatone At-A-Glance
Strengths: None.
Weaknesses: Expensive; several products contain irritating ingredients that hurt skin's healing process and ability to produce healthy collagen; jar packaging causes the antioxidants and other key ingredients to break down; over-the-top claims not supported by published research.
Hydroxatone is a mail-order company that sells various anti-wrinkle and anti-aging products, all at fairly high prices. You need to know that these products are absolutely not worth your attention, let alone your beauty dollars. It's not that they don't contain some great ingredients, but almost every formula has its share of problems that make investing in this line the wrong way to go (especially if your concern is wrinkles or discolorations).
The key ingredients Hydroxatone touts are peptides and hyaluronic acid. These ingredients are used industry-wide, so you're not getting anything special or unique with Hydroxatone. What's particularly frustrating is that the company makes a much bigger deal about their "special" ingredients then is deserved. For example, the peptides don't work like Botox, the hyaluronic acid won't replace the need for dermal fillers, and their claim that these products contain the most effective anti-wrinkle ingredients isn't supported by published research. Even the "clinical studies" Hydroxatone mentions are meaningless, especially since they weren't done double-blind and the results were not compared with other products (that, in most cases, would likely work even better).

I've recently begun playing Black Crusade, and I've picked the Apostate Archetype because I prefer characters heavier on roleplaying and knowledge skills. However, to be quite honest, I find them to be an absolute mess and I was wondering if perhaps I could be enlightened. I'll start with the elast important and work forward.
1) The Chaos Symbol Pendant and Unholy Tomes are the only gear in the game without description or stats. Why were they even mentioned? It seems like they're such common items that any heretic would have them. It seems so inconsistent to have only one class have "useless" items.
B) Given how little attention is paid to social combat and the investigative side besides "These are how you do skill and characteristic checks", it seems like they really don't have much afford to them in terms of a future. While it's open advancement, if you play their strengths few talents work for them, and even fewer items. The only long term paths open to them seem a focus on cults (Which drastically alter a game and require such leadership that it pretty much makes you an NPC or are just a background thing to help with knowledge) or Chaos Rituals were quite honestly seem like the worst deal ever. After awhile though, what's the point in even bothering with normal cultists? You incite a rebellion or two, it's not like everything in a game can be about that.
C) They're incredibly situational and every single one of their abilities is indirect. (A direct ability is purely mechanical, an indirect always requires the person running it to create situations for them as they have no direct effect). I'm okay with this because the situations they shine in are important and necessary, but it is a major pain those situations the rest of the party is going to be bored in. (Negotations/Talking or Lore Checks/Research) which is kind of frustrating. And most Daemon/CSM seem immune to social combat.
Basically, after play testing and examination, I feel like little thought was put into the Apostate. It's almost as if they went "Ex-Imperial Guard/Assasin, Heretek, and Psyker done, I'm tired." "Let's take the Adept and give them _Even Less_ to work with" "Sounds great, no one will bother with this.". Though you'll excuse me if I'm missing something vastly great about the Archetype. It seems like after a few ranks it gets phased out with ease.
I sincerely appreciate any help or advice offered. I don't mean to sound jaded or downtrodden, but I've tried everywhere on the internet to figure out what to do with my Apostate and what to aim for, and beyond the "Beyond a cult leader, force the game to be about your politics and 1000's of followers replacing the others or reitre to an NPC" or.. Kind of sitting in the background running skill checks while being useless 75-80% of the time. (Assuming 5 people, and the Apostate getting 20% dedicated to their style of game)
Thank you again for any help.

Updated: January 31, 2013 6:43AM
Last New Year's Eve was a Saturday night.
At the stroke of midnight ushering in 2012, Chicagoans fired their guns into the air. One of them, Michael Smith, 52, at 72nd and Campbell, was heard by nearby police, who ordered him to drop his weapon. Smith instead ran, was chased, and when he turned — raising his gun, according to police — they shot him, many times.
Smith was the first Chicagoan to die by the bullet in 2012. The New Year was not 10 minutes old, the opening tragedy in what would be a year marred by gun violence, not only in Chicago, which reached 500 murders, but across the country, particularly a spate of mass shootings that focused national attention on guns and their place in American life.
If you define a "mass shooting" as a man — and for some reason, women do not commit these crimes — showing up in a public place and randomly shooting people, then 16 mass shootings occurred in the United States in 2012. Only the bloodiest lingered in the public mind for any length of time.
Chicago's murder rate, meanwhile, soared; 19 percent higher in 2012 compared to last year, with the vast majority — 87 percent — being gun related. The year began with a particularly lethal winter — murders up 60 percent in the first three months of the year, 120 dead between January and the end of March, a period that saw only 75 homicides in both 2011 and 2010. Some experts blamed the warm weather. One weekend, 49 people were shot in Chicago, 10 fatally, including Aliyah Shell, shot in the stomach and killed as she sat on her front porch in Little Village. She was 6. Altogether, there were about 2,400 shootings reported to Chicago police in 2012.
Nationwide, mass shootings were a steady drumbeat — five people killed at a Korean health spa in Georgia in February; 20 shot and one dead at a nightclub in Tennessee; the next day, three students killed at Chardon High School in Ohio.
Spring no different
In the spring, the trend continued: Two dead at a psychiatric hospital in Pittsburgh, two at a funeral home in Florida. In April, seven executed at Oikos University in Oakland, three black men targeted because of their race in Tulsa. In May, five killed at a coffee shop in Seattle.
Meanwhile, gang shootings occurred every weekend in Chicago. By summer, the city's reputation was echoing around the globe. "Velkommen til dodens by" read the headline on a story on Chicago in a Norwegian newspaper in August: "Welcome to murder city."
Nationwide, in July, three were killed at a soccer tournament in Delaware, but the horror that first transfixed public attention on guns happened July 20, when James Holmes, his hair dyed orange, entered a midnight screening of "The Dark Knight Rises" in Aurora, Colo., and allegedly murdered 12, wounding 58. If many in Chicago could shrug off its murder epidemic under the rationale that as long as they weren't living in Englewood, they'd be OK, it was harder for Americans to tell themselves they'd be safe if they stayed out of movie theaters.
Or places of worship. Two weeks after the Colorado shooting, a white supremacist killed six people at a Sikh temple outside of Milwaukee.
And on it went — three people at Texas A&M. Five at a sign company in Minneapolis. Three at a spa in Wisconsin. Two at a mall in Portland, Ore., and, Dec. 14, the crowning horror, 20 young children, all 6 or 7, plus six teachers and administrators, massacred at a grade school in Newtown, Conn.
30,000 yearly
While the toll from mass shootings — 88 dead — is a fraction of the overall carnage from guns (in fact, with 30,000 Americans shot and killed each year, 88 is about the average number killed with a gun every single day in this country) the inherent horror and randomness of the Newtown killings made more Americans look harder at the price we are paying for our love of guns (or perhaps it wasn't just the randomness, but also the race: some wondered aloud why black children being gunned down every day is accepted by the public with only a murmur of concern, while white children being slain suddenly sparks an orgy of national soul-searching).
If we avoid speculation, and stick to facts, we find that the facts don't back up our popular perceptions.
First, the most common victim of a gun is the owner — 55 percent of gunshot victims are suicides and 5 percent are accidents, with the other 40 percent being homicides. Countless people who buy a gun thinking they're buying increased security are actually selecting the instrument of their own destruction.
Violent crime decreasing
Violent crime is going down steadily, year by year, according to the FBI. The national murder rate of 4.7 per 100,000 is half of what it was 20 years ago. (The Chicago area murder rate is 6.8 per 100,000, three times higher than the rate in New York City).
Guns are the weapons of choice in murder. In Illinois in 2011, there were 452 murders — 377 were with a gun, all but 13 of those a handgun. Those who argue that, without guns, people will still commit murders with any weapon at hand are not correct — nations with tighter gun laws have far reduced murder rates.
In the United States, there are more guns — an estimated 270 million — yet gun ownership is down, dramatically.
"The proportion of households with a firearm has declined from about half in the 1970s to about a third now," said Tom W. Smith, senior fellow at NORC, an opinion research center at the University of Chicago, and director of the Center for Study of Politics and Society. "That surprises a lot of people. But when you look at two ancillary facts: the proportion of adults who are hunters has declined, and most years the levels of crime has declined. Hunting and self-defense are the two major reasons for having firearms, and both of those trends point away from having firearms." The paradox of more guns but fewer owners is solved because those who do own guns tend to own a lot more of them. Gun stores report surges in sales based around national events such as the re-election of Barack Obama or Mayan predictions of the end of the world.
"Multiple guns are not that uncommon," Smith said. "It's not that rare to have 20, 30, 40, 50 guns, and these people drive up the mean number. Even if it's one in a hundred, that is enough to bring up the overall average appreciably."
319 CPS students shot
A lot of guns. And those guns get stolen and traded at gun shows and fall into the wrong hands. Increasingly, those guns fall into the hands of people who shoot children — 319 Chicago public school children were shot in the academic year that ended in June. Twenty-four of them died, a higher toll than in Newtown.
There were marches, protests, vigils. Now President Obama and congressional Democrats, after years of inaction on the problem, say they are going to see if the profusion of guns in America can be stemmed, to bring our shooting death toll more in line with other civilized countries. Republicans oppose this — gun ownership is another partisan divide in our deeply divided country; nearly 60 percent of Republicans own guns, while only a quarter of Democrats do.
We are presented with a shiny new year — 2013. Whether 2013 will also be the year of the gun depends, in part, on how our city and nation respond to the horrendous carnage taking place all around us. Given how little has been done to control guns in the past, how quickly we forget even the starkest horrors, and the tendency for resolutions of any kind to fall by the wayside, the odds are not good. Some have resolved to make 2013 the year our nation will finally do something about its gun problem. Turning words into action will be much harder.

A serious cook since he was 11, and a funny fellow for as long as anyone can remember, author J. Stephen Lay has crafted an unusual recipe book that will entertain and delight while causing your mouth to water ... well, MOST of the time. When you add the fish to a recipe for Eskimo Ice Cream, you might have second thoughts about desert.The author's recipe for brussel sprouts, which he hates beyond reason, borders on slander against this poor, defenseless vegetable. And he's rather disrespectful of the ubiquitous zucchini, too. But what are you going to do with someone who inserts beer for the chef into his recipes?
ABOUT THE AUTHOR: A writer, photographer, and teacher who knows his way around the kitchen, J.

PLANT CITY, Fla. — Fortified with new funding, Florida's strawberry industry plans to market the upcoming season's berries with increased consumer advertising.
Florida strawberry growers heard about the new advertising push and other marketing venues at Florida Strawberry Growers Association's Agritech 2013, Aug. 12-14.
Ted Campbell, the Dover-based association's executive director, told growers the group plans to use $180,000 of a $286,000 U.S. Department of Agriculture specialty crop grant to fund billboard advertising in eight Northeastern cities including New York, Philadelphia and Boston.
"These are places we feel we can draw some consumer appeal for Florida fruit," he said. "We need to define what Florida berries are and differentiate them from other berries."
With growers competing against larger Mexican imports, that differentiation remains important to Andy McDonald, the association's president and farming operations manager of Sweet Life Farms LLC.
"I think we're in dire straits, that's where our industry is going," McDonald said. "Unless we stand together, we can go out of business."
The association plans to invest the remainder of the funds in research, Campbell said.
Erica Field, farm to school training coordinator with the Tallahassee-based Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services' Division of Food, Nutrition and Wellness, discussed how the agency is working with school districts to include more fresh produce in their meals.
"There's been no change in our kids' menus for 30 years until 2010," she said. "There also hasn't been a push in schools to educate our foodservice directors about produce. If we can get the districts to collaborate, they can serve strawberries on Mondays and sweet corn on Tuesdays."

LOVE this dress!
I absolutely love this dress. The fabric is clingy without being uncomfortably body-con, and it flares out from my hips without adding extra fabric bulk! It shows just enough cleavage for a sassy day date. Love it !

This dress has great detailing, I especially love the pop of mint color it has. Stretch fabric gives it a great fit. I'm 5'8" and 125 lbs and got a size small and it fits well. Perfect for spring and any event thats dressier but not formal. I got it on sale so even better!!
