Top Teachers: Stephen Worfolk
Jackson Davis E.S., third grade
Stephen Worfolk happened upon his career calling on a basketball court, while coaching a team at St. Mary's Church. "Even though we lost a lot of games my first year, I truly enjoyed teaching the kids how to play," he said. "It was then I realized I would like to try my hand at teaching." Although he now "coaches" a classroom full of third-graders at Jackson Davis E.S., the challenges are similar in some respects. "A large group of students come to you each year on different levels academically, emotionally and physically," he said. "Trying to meet each student's needs and creating a classroom environment where each can grow can be very challenging." Sometimes the students, like his basketball players, need physical help and encouragement. In September, for instance, when training begins for the mile or half-mile running test in P.E., many can barely run a lap around the track. But Worfolk makes sure that the students exercise each day and run a mile at least three times a week. Worfolk notes that one of his favorite days of the school year is the spring running test, when students who ran with difficulty in September find they can now go the distance without stopping. "It's incredibly rewarding," said Worfolk. "It is so neat to see students get excited about conquering a challenge they might have hated in the beginning of the year." A parent who observed this transformation comments, "Some kids never have – and may never again have – the opportunity or the encouragement that he provides. The physical progress for many of the kids is very inspirational." Parents also admire Worfolk's "relentless" energy and concern for his students, and note that while strict, "he has a huge heart." To his students' delight, he makes a point of attending their extracurricular activities and sports throughout the year. And to the delight of parents, he compiles an end-of-year show featuring photos from extracurricular events as well as from in-school activities. Worfolk's interest in the children as individuals, say parents, has a tremendous effect on students' motivation and enthusiasm when it comes to school. When it comes to enthusiasm for his students and for his colleagues, it's hard to match Worfolk, as well. One of his more rewarding teaching experiences involved a student who came into his class reading far below grade level. Worfolk said the student was "incredibly hard-working," but required help from many teachers beside himself due to being so far behind. "I was proud to be a part," he said, "of this amazing group of teachers . . . who helped this student with her reading to the point where she could read proudly to the rest of the class." |

What's new?
I have updated the Events page with information about all the classes I am booked to teach through to the end of 2014.
As well as teaching workshops and 2 hour classes at both Liss Wools, The Knitting Habit and Mells and Whimsey I am also teaching a residential weekend course on Patchwork Knitting at Farncombe Estate, Broadway, in the Cotswolds from 17th to 19th October.
I have been invited back for another year to teach on the French Treats Knitting Holidays in 2015. The knitting holidays are held at Le Vieux Monastere which is set in the lovely surroundings of south west France and is a great place to teach groups of enthusiastic knitters. As yet I have not worked out the programme of workshops for next year but the dates for the holiday are the 7th to 14th June 2015.
I am continuing to work on developing new areas on this website. As well as developing the Machine Knitting pages I am hoping to include some more techniques information and links to my Blog and YouTube channel. I have uploaded the first demos to my YouTube channel which are about finishing necklines. As well as demonstrating the technique I have also written a Blog post on the subject to give more background detail for those who are interested.
The 'Patterns' page now shows the free patterns I offer and on their individual pages is a link to download the pattern as a PDF file. There are also links to the Hand Knitting Patterns page and the Machine Knitting Patterns Page (currently still under construction). As well as adding more of my patterns to these pages I am hoping to also provide a link to purchase the patterns directly through my Ravelry store. Quite a few patterns are already available for immediate purchase from my Ravelry Store although not all the patterns shown on this website are available in the store yet.
As well as developing my own patterns I am continuing to write for 'Knitting' Magazine and 'The Knitter'. I have had a number of patterns and articles published in these magazines as well as several other knitting magazines over the years.
I continue to develop new workshops and talks for both hand and machine knititng. Some of the latest hand knitting workshops include 'Two-colour Brioche Knitting', 'Entrelac', Knitting Jewellery' and 'Drop Stitch Ruffles Scarf' and I an offering a new machine knitting talk called 'Pattern Play' The 'Talks' and 'Workshop' pages list most of the talks and workshops I currently offer. If there is any knitting technique or skill in particular that your group would be interested in please contact me to discuss alternative workshops or talks.
Hand Knitting
The City and Guilds 7716-15 Level 2 and 7716-16 Level 3 Certificates in Hand Knit Textiles are available as distance learning options. The distance learning course can be started at any time. For more information about these courses see the C&G 7716-15 and C&G 7716-16 pages.
Machine Knitting
I am no longer able to offer the City and Guilds course in Machine Knit Textiles. However I am aware that knitters do still want to learn about design and improve their knitting skills so I am in the process of developing my own course (based on the City and Guilds course) which will be offered as a 'Designer Knitters' course. I am also working on a 'Master Knitters' course which will focuse mainly on knitting skills rather than knitting and design skills. I will post more information when the courses are avaiable.
For more information about all the workshops I have been booked to teach this year please see the Events page. of this website.

The road to same-sex marriage in Washington
The road to gay marriage in Washington state.
September 1971: Paul Barwick and John Singer walk into King County Auditor's Office and request a marriage license. They are turned down by Auditor Lloyd Hara.
August 1972: Barwick and Singer sue Hara, claiming denial of a marriage license violates their constitutional rights. A King County Superior Court judge rejects Barwick and Singer's claims of discrimination, and the state Court of Appeals upholds the ruling.
February 1998: The Legislature passes Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA), a state statute prohibiting same-sex marriage.
March 2004: Eight gay and lesbian couples sue King County over right to marry.
April 2004: Eleven gay and lesbian couples sue state over right to marry.
August 2004: King County Superior Court Judge William Downing Downing rules that denying gays the right to marry amounts to a denial of due process, finds DOMA unconstitutional.
September 2004: Thurston County Superior Court Judge Richard Hicks rules gays are part of "protected class" and may not be denied same right granted others; he finds DOMA unconstitutional.
March 2005: The two cases are merged and argued before state Supreme Court.
February 2006: Gov. Chris Gregoire signs gay-rights bill into law. The legislation adds the words "sexual orientation" to existing law that prohibits discrimination on basis of race, age, gender, disability, religion and marital status.
July 2006: State Supreme Court, in 5-4 ruling, rejects rights of gay couples to marry and upholds DOMA.
April 2007: Gregoire signs bill creating same-sex domestic partnerships. Law also applies to heterosexual couples 62 and older.
March 2008: Gregoire signs a bill expanding 2007 domestic-partnership law.
May 2009: Gregoire signs "everything but marriage" bill, granting domestic partners all state-provided benefits that married couples have. Opponents launch referendum drive seeking to overturn law.
November 2009: Referendum 71, which would repeal "everything but marriage" law, fails at ballot; Washington becomes first state where voters approve rights of same-sex partners.
January 2012: Gregoire, saying "I have been on my own journey," announces her support of same-sex marriage legislation.
February 2012: Legislature passes bill to legalize same-sex marriage, and Gregoire signs it into law.

If you're looking for some inspirational animations that hearken back to the days where psychedelic colors dominated the media, then check out this 'Train Logger' video. Not only will your eyes be treated to a visual feast, but the video is played over a stellar rock track that hammers away at you the way a Queens of the Stone Age song does.
The technique used to make this 'Train Logger' video is called strata-cut, which involves cutting away at a clay log while taking photographs of each cut and then compiling all of the snapshots together into a fluid animation. It's very similar to stop-motion.
The 'Train Logger' video was made by Nicos Livesey.

That was a tough loss in one of the ugliest NFL games I've ever witnessed. It's games like that which make me think that this team is not as good as it's record. Fortunately for the Chiefs, they don't have to be as good as their record as long as their record gets them into the playoffs. Results are what matter in sports. Even though the Chiefs lost, they are still in first place in the AFC and miles ahead of where I thought they would be at this point. I've done all of the heavy lifting and scoured the googletubes to find you the most interesting Chiefs tidbits from around the web. So, let's grab a glass of brandy and get down to our Briefs.
- I've never been a big consumer of football news on the internet, but it seems to me there is a real dearth of information and quality writing on the NFL out there. Am I missing something? Maybe I'm used to the world of baseball where there are literally thousands of people putting out quality content. There are some good Chiefs blogs I visit, but outside of that I haven't found anything worth reading. Any suggestions?
- Jeremy at Arrowhead Addict sums up pretty well the feeling around Chiefs fans after the Raiders game. Basically: That game against Denver is kind of an all-in proposition. I hate to put too much emphasis on one game, but in terms of fan feelings and media interest; he is right.
. - It's great to see that former heavyweight boxer Butterbean has found a new job, but why is it he goes by the name Tom Cable?
. - Andrew Gaug at the News Press in St. Joseph writes that the Chiefs sales tax figures disappoint. Nobody should be shocked that the impact of a professional sports team is over-stated in an attempt to get free tax dollars. It happens every single time. I'm sure there was positive impact from the Chiefs fans going to St. Joseph to watch training camp, but it's only a few weeks a year.
. - You know, I really do like the simplicity of the Raiders' uniforms. Its a nice classic look and an iconic logo. They really are like the Chiefs in that way.
. - Derrick Johnson inked a new 5 year deal with the Chiefs with $15m in guaranteed money. He was my preseason prediction for defensive player of the year and the guy has absolutely brought it this year. It's a well earned contract.
. - Am I the only one who thinks that Tamba Hali is being held on every single play? Is there some reason that the refs never blow the whistle on guys holding him?
. - Apparently there is a great barbershop in Overland Park which cuts the hair of a bunch of NFL players including former Chief Tony Richardson. It seems like a cool place, I may give it a shot sometime.
. - In this day and age, do we really need to have the referees come out and measure using the chains? How hard would it be to put a laser on the sticks and if the ball breaks the laser its a first down? Is there some reason this isn't done? Watching the measurement is another of many time wasters in the NFL, however this one doesn't involve commercials so I can't explain it.
. - KC Chiefs Blog asks "Will the real Chiefs Please Stand Up?" It's a good post, and I'm in agreement with them. I still don't know what to make of this team. There really isn't a record that the Chiefs could end up with that would really shock me.
. - Todd Haley is still going for it on 4th down and I am still loving it.
. - So I said I'd lay off Happy Feet Cassel until he threw a pick, that didn't take long, did it? I know it' been said and said, but the fact remains, he isn't a good quarterback.
. - Why is it that punters can't kick field goals and vice versa? Maybe not all of them, but none of them? There isn't one guy who has both of those skills? Am I the only one shocked at that?

Lesbianism is such a hot topic, some celebs even seem to be capitalizing on the media coming out party. While faux-mo's make us want to barf, in general, the mainstreaming of what was once considered counterculture is exciting. Now heteros can finally play Indigo Girls' records in public without being judged! But who are the trailblazing scissor sisters bridging their community? Since everyone's personalities are a mixture of nurture and nature, here are the basic types of lesbians from which you can make-up the Venn diagram of lesbian society.

Conservative Senator Patrick Brazeau.
Credits: REUTERS
Metroland Media reported Brazeau and Galipeau made a number of comments about Spence - who spent six weeks on a high-profile personal protest in Ottawa.
"I look at Miss Spence, when she started her hunger strike, and now ... she's fatter," Brazeau said at a provincial Tory fundraiser Wednesday, according to the article.
NDP MP Charlie Angus says an apology is in order.
"They make fun about her weight, and they get it for the laughs," Angus said. "I think it sends a message of contempt towards First Nation people and I think that they should apologize."
Last week, Spence's Twitter account was used to call Brazeau "a colonized Indian a--hole," but the comments were deleted shortly after.

Barbash IM et al. – In patients with ST–elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI), primary PCI failure is uncommon. It is associated with worse short– and long–term clinical outcome compared with a successful procedure. Special care should be taken when percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) is performed in women at higher risk for failure when presenting with STEMI.
Methods- A clinical database of consecutive patients who underwent primary or rescue PCI from 1993 to 2011 was used to compare patients with successful versus failed PCI.
- Clinical follow–up was obtained in–hospital, at 30 days and at 1 year.
- Of 2900 patients fulfilling the inclusion criteria, 111 (3.98%) had failed PCI.
- Patients who had failed PCI were older (65 vs. 61 years), were more likely to be women (46% vs. 32%), were more likely to have previous peripheral vascular disease (19% vs. 11%), previous PCI (29% vs. 20%), and were more likely to present with cardiogenic shock (25% vs. 11%) (all P < 0.05).
- Multivariable logistic regression analysis identified female gender (OR 1.54; 95% CI 1.01–2.38), cardiogenic shock (2.07; 1.22–3.49), previous PCI (1.71; 1.08–2.70), and type C lesion (2.47; 1.60–3.82) as independent predictors of PCI failure.
- The in–hospital (18% vs. 4%) and long–term mortality (48% vs. 14%) were worse in the failed PCI group compared to the successful group (P < 0.05).

Geropsychiatry program
Aging and loss . . . the two go hand-in-hand. As time passes, it's inevitable that we experience many losses. Older people face the stress of many bereavements, often in rapid succession. These can include the loss of independence for health or financial reasons. For some, aging and retirement mean a loss of social prestige and feeling useful. Even a person who has dealt well with change in the past may be overwhelmed with the number of losses he or she is facing in rapid succession.
The Baptist Health Counseling recognizes the many problems the elderly face today. The Geropsychiatry Program includes inpatient and partial hospitalization programs that are specially designed to care for emotionally troubled older adults.
Older patients often have chronic health problems which require special medical care. The program's location within a hospital makes it an ideal setting for the treatment of patients with both emotional and medical problems. A physician is available 24 hours a day to handle medical emergencies.
Each patient in the program is under the care of a private psychiatrist who directs the efforts of a team of mental health professionals. Nurses, chaplains, expressive therapists, mental health therapists and recreational therapists work with the psychiatrist to help each patient progress toward recovery.
For more information about geropsychiatric care at Baptist Health Louisville, call (502) 896-7105 or toll-free (800) 478-1105.

Hello, All
I have some Selenicereus anthonyanus aka Ric Rac / Zig Zag / Fishbone Cactus fully rooted for trade. I'm looking for the following as cuttings or rooted. Christmas Cactus
Christmas cacti result from crosses of Schlumbergera truncata (Thanksgiving cactus) and S. russelliana. Although flower colors include purple, pink, white, red, orange, or yellow, Christmas Cactus can be identified by the oblong or obovate stem segments with crenate (round-teethed) margins. ----------------------------------------------------------- Easter Cactus
Easter cacti result from crosses of Hatiora gaertneri and H. rosea. The flowers are intermediate between those of its parents and seen in a range of colors. The leaves are characteristically oblong to narrowly oblanceolate. Notice the shallowly crenate (round-teethed) to nearly non-existent lobes on the stem segment margins and the areoles with fine, brown bristles. ----------------------------------------------------------- Thanksgiving Cactus
Thanksgiving cactus' oblong stem segments become pendulous with length. Note the sharply serrate-dentate (coarse, forward-pointing teeth) along the stem segment margins. Flower color is typically rose to red. Thanks, Farmer Ron:) |

Hey Ron, would you believe tonight I was repotting my Christmas cactus and a rooted segment fell off so I put it in another pot and I really have no need for it. If you're willing, I'd love to trade it for your Zig Zac cactus. LMK, thanks, JOel. |

found a new home!
Plenty of my friends are looking
for one too. Find a pet to adopt.
Find a pet to adopt |
My name is Sebastian!
Facts about Sebastian
- Breed: Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)/Pit Bull Terrier Mix
- Color: Brindle - With White
- Age: Young
- Size: Med. 26-60 lbs (12-27 kg)
- Sex: Male
Sebastian's Info...
I am already neutered and up to date with shots.
SEBASTIAN (A20166631) is a 1-2 year old male pitbull terrier mix. He is brindle/white in coloring and medium in size, weighing about 49 pounds. SEBASTIAN came to the shelter as a stray, but is now already fixed and can go home with you the same day so stop by ACCT and meet this well-mannered, handsome boy. SEBASTIAN walks well on a leash, listens to commands, looks to you to lead him around and explore his surroundings. He also likes to sit quietly and look around and cuddle. Sebastian would make a great addition to any household. Grab the family and come to ACCT and meet your new best friend and he can go home with you and give you a lifetime of happiness.
Act quickly to adopt Sebastian. Pets at this Shelter may be held for only a short time.
Other Pets at Animal Care & Control Team
Why Adoption is a Great Option
Sebastian, a Philadelphia Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)/Pit Bull Terrier dog was adopted! Here's how you can benefit by looking at adoption as an option to buying a Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)/Pit Bull Terrier for sale in Philadelphia, or seeking a Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)/Pit Bull Terrier dog from a breeder in Philadelphia.
- Rescues and shelter volunteers in Philadelphia already know the personality and tendencies of their pets. This means they can match you with the right pet. That will makes it much easier transition to owning a pet for yourself and your new pet.
- On average adoption fees are much less than you'd pay a Philadelphia breeder, or pet store. Plus most often rescue pets have already been to the veterinarian for a check-up, had a round of vaccinations, and are spayed or neutered. That is a lot of savings!
- You will become a hero, and give a needy dog or cat a loving home. In fact, there are even Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)/Pit Bull Terrier breeders who help with Terrier (Unknown Type, Medium)/Pit Bull Terrier rescue. One puppy or kitten adopted in Philadelphia paves the way for another one to be saved.

Arsenal Ladies FC were formed in 1987 by Vic Akers, who enjoyed a 22-year stint as manager of the Club prior to moving upstairs to a general manager role in 2009.
Under Akers, the Gunners collected a stunning 33 major trophies - including a domestic and European quadruple in 2007. His total haul included a UEFA Women's Cup, three domestic trebles, 12 Premier League titles, 10 FA Cups and 10 League Cups. It was a remarkable set of achievements that cemented Arsenal Ladies as the foremost women's football club in this country.
At present the Ladies have won 41 trophies in their 25-year history.
In 2013 Shelley Kerr was appointed first team Manager. That year the Gunners failed to defend their WSL title in 2013 but went on to reach the semi final in the UEFA Women's Champions League, and win the FA Cup for a record 12th time and the Continental Cup for the third straight year in a row.
The Current Manager, Pedro Martinez-Losa took charge in October 2014 and they ended that season winning their 13th FA Cup and reaching the final of the Continental Cup for the 4th time in a row
As well as an all-conquering first team, Arsenal Ladies also comprises a Development Squad and Centre of Excellence teams at U17, U15, U13 and U9. In 2013/14 season the U17 squad have been crowned League Champions.

I have a very large well rooted specimen of this rare tropical liana to trade. My vine is between 10-20 ft in length with multiple leads. It is in a 6" container of soil and must be sent in the container. Because of this, it can NOT be sent to the following states:
CA, TX, LA, AZ, HI, or Puerto Rico. It is large and will be fairly expensive to mail anywhere out of FL. I am looking for a fair trade for it. A vine this size would sell in South FL for between $50-85. You would never be able to mail order a vine this size. I am interested in Hoyas. I am also interested in its red counterpart: Mucuna bennetii.
Hoyas I am REALLY interested in are:

Please help me decide on new colors for my siding, roof and shutters. We purchased a home that is mostly red brick, but we need to replace the siding and roof and I'm clueless as to what will look best! We also have white garage doors and window trim, and those colors will stay.
I really like Scottish Thistle siding by Mastic - it seems like a greenish gray color, and I'm wondering if this will work with a gray roof, red brick, and white accents elsewhere, and maybe gray or darker green shutters? Here is a link to a photo of my house. Any opinions are welcome! http://www.trulia.com/property/3054419991-141-Redwood-Dr-Venetia-PA-15367 |

I think you should go with the Thistle! Red and green are beautiful together and a red brick next to a barely green grey would be pretty. I would definitely keep it light though so it doesn't blend in with the brick. pretty house! |

I agree. I think the thistle will be beautiful. Kathy |

Lotto Participants.... I realize we still have months remaining in 2013 and all is well; however, my lotto partner, ToolGranny, will not be assisting in 2014. A SINCERE and BIG Thank You to Toolgranny for her 2013 lotto creations past and yet to come! Great blocks, great colors during 2013...and we still have Nov and Dec... As for 2014, I was going to ask for another partner, but I had an experienced volunteer step to the plate...none other than Kate! So for 2014 Kate will take Toolgranny's role and I'll continue with the block collecting/ winner generation and mailing. Keep those blocks coming and you could be a winner!!! (ok it sounds like a commercial, but at least I didn't say, but wait there's more ... :-) Thanks again Linda for being my first year lotto partner! Happy sewing! |

A big thank you, Kate, for filling in here. I'm leaving it in very capable hands. |
You two did a great job and I know how much work it is! Now that I have weathered some changes at my workplace, I feel ready to get more involved with the forum again. Looking forward to doing the Lotto with littlehelen! Kate |
- Posted by geezerfolks (My Page) on Sun, Oct 6, 13 at 20:17
Thank you, TG/Linda and Valarie for keeping the 2013 Lotto going. You did a great job! Thank you to Kate for stepping in and teaming with Valarie for 2014. Glad your workplace is allowing you more time for the forum and quilting, Kate. SharonG/FL |
Appreciated Kate's involvement last year, and Linda's this year. Looking forward to more fun next year. My experience over the past two years has been very enjoyable (especially when I win). Good selection of blocks and colours, some quite challenging like paper piecing. And away we go! Theresa |
As we get ready for 2014, please let us know if you have any requests or suggestions. Colors, blocks, themes, whatever. We would love to hear from those who have participated in the past (what did you like? what didn't you like?) and from those who have not (why not? what would get you interested?). Put on your thinking caps and let us know! You can either reply here or send emails. |

Linda, Valarie, and Kate, Thank you, thank you, thank you! You have done a wonderful job with the Lotto and I really appreciate all of the work you have put into it. I enjoy participating when I can and appreciate that it can be a month-to-month decision whether we participate or not. (Sometimes life just gets in the way!) I personally like 12" blocks rather than 9". No real preference on patterns or colors. It's always fun (well, almost always ... :-) Thanks! |
- Posted by geezerfolks (My Page) on Mon, Oct 7, 13 at 22:43
Is there any interest in a theme for the year? Flowers? Baskets? Animals? Holidays? Too boring? lol SharonG/FL |
I was wondering about a color theme so participants could make one extra block each month and have their own quilt at the end of the year, even if the didn't win any lottos. Our guild does that. Just a thought. |
Chuckling here because I had thought Last Jan. that I would do that, make an extra block each month. And just yesterday I realized I hadn't done that. Maybe next year. The idea of a colour theme is good but it might be a colour that everyone isn't comfortable with. JMHO. Theresa |
Thank you Linda and Val for all of your work on the lotto this year. I like the variety in blocks, so my vote is to keep each month different colors and different styles. |
- Posted by magothyrivergirl (My Page) on Tue, Oct 8, 13 at 11:28
The Lotto is glue for this forum - a way for us to connect. Linda's color expertise and block choices were beautiful and appealing and never boring. I think keeping the variety will generate the most participation. I think it should be encouraged to actually make something with the Lotto blocks won - Show & Tell - perhaps a Bonus entry into the Lotto in the month the winner posts a picture of the finished top along with a block for the new month -- submit a block --post picture - 2 chances=Block submitted and Bonus. We've seen some awesome quilts made with the Lotto blocks. I love how we encourage each other & share ideas and techniques. I know I need help when I win. :~) Postage continues to increase - shipping is an issue for all business and it sounds like it is time for a hard look / analysis of what it costs to send the winnings and evaluate how we participants contribute. The Coordinator --Valarie shouldn't use her own money to fund the Lotto. She already donates her time and energy. The Lotto is great fun. We are fortunate to have great people coordinating the Lotto - Thank you Valarie, Linda and Kate! |
- Posted by beth7happy (My Page) on Wed, Oct 9, 13 at 13:25
First of all, my first thanks go to Kate!! She was my mentor and held my hand to even TRY making a single block!! She's put up with all my kicking and screaming for the last year and a half (or more!!??) in my efforts to learn to try piecing. So..THANK YOU, Kate! -my Inspiration Station! and many thanks to Linda and Valarie for all their work this year, too....I've learned something new almost every time! The 12" blocks are great...I, too, am making 4 every month that I can...mailing 3 and keeping 1. SOMEday I'll have enough for a sampler! Pretty cool, huh??? That being said, I love it all!!! |

Hit So Hard (E)
Time Out rating:
Rating: 3/5
Not yet rated
Time Out says
Tue Nov 13 2012
The name of this doc describes Hole drummer Patty Schemel's playing style: impactful and aggressive. But Schemel's life bears out the obvious metaphor in that title, too, as she goes from teen punk to gay rock star to destitute heroin addict to sober business owner: no matter how many blows you take, it's all about endurance. 'Hit So Hard' is made with love (and Courtney Love, who pops up often), and its story is heartfelt. But with a basic style and a familiar rags-to-riches-to-rags throughline, there's not enough to justify the 103-minute running time or a big-screen release. Still, there's much to like, from footage of Schemel and Kurt Cobain, to a final scene of the 45-year-old drummer working with a new generation of angry young punks.Author: Tom Huddleston

Mayor de Blasio announced his choice for commissioner of the Department of Environmental Protection Tuesday.
Emily Lloyd, the administrator of Prospect Park and president of the Prospect Park Alliance, will lead the agency. She also headed the DEP from 2005 to 2009.
"At a time when natural resources are increasingly scarce and extreme weather events are increasingly common, we need to get much more prudent about managing our water supply and ensuring our infrastructure is ready to handle any storm that might strike next," Lloyd said in a statement. "We also need to create a much more accessible and user-friendly department that serves all New Yorkers, one that allows our customers to understand, and, if necessary, contest their bills quickly and easily."
The New York League of Conservation voters reacted positively to the pick.
"Whether it has been in her public or nonprofit role, NYLCV has enjoyed a great working relationship with Emily Lloyd in her years of service to this city," the organization's president, Marcia Bystryn, said in a statement.

Two Defendants Charged in a Rent-to-own Vehicle Fraud Scheme
Secret Service Seeking Additional Victims
Baltimore, Maryland - A criminal complaint was filed on March 10, 2011 charging Lamondes Williams, age 51, of Baltimore, Maryland and Erica Brown, age 28, of Laurel, Maryland, with wire fraud in connection with a scheme in which the defendants are alleged to have falsely promised individuals with poor credit assistance in obtaining a vehicle which they could rent-to-own. Both defendants had their initial appearances in federal court in Baltimore. Brown has been released on conditions. Williams had his detention hearing at 2:00 p.m. this afternoon and was detained.
The criminal complaint was announced by United States Attorney for the District of Maryland Rod J. Rosenstein and Special Agent in Charge Barbara Golden of the United States Secret Service – Baltimore Field Office.
According to the affidavit supporting the criminal complaint, Williams was running a scheme where he advertised a rent-to-own program for vehicles. Brown allegedly worked for Williams and promoted his scheme. Williams and Brown allegedly informed their victims that if they paid a cash fee to enter the program and then a cash payment each month, they would be able to drive a vehicle which would ultimately belong to them. After the victims paid the fees, Williams or Brown allegedly took them to car rental agencies where they negotiated the contract with the car rental agency on behalf of the victim, then had the victim sign the paperwork. Most of the time, Williams rented the car for only a short period of time, such as two days, without telling the victim. The victim then continued to make payments to Williams. In the meantime, because the victim did not return the car when it was due back at the rental agency, the agency contacted the victim and instructed the victim to return the car. When the victim complained to Williams or Brown that they had to return the vehicle, Williams refused to return the fees paid by the victim.
Williams and Brown face a maximum sentence of 20 years in prison for wire fraud.
Anyone believing that they may have been a victim of this scheme is asked to call the U.S. Secret Service at 443-263-1000.
A criminal complaint is not a finding of guilt. An individual charged by complaint is presumed innocent unless and until proven guilty at some later criminal proceedings.
United States Attorney Rod J. Rosenstein praised the Secret Service for its work in the investigation and thanked Assistant United States Attorneys Mara Zusman Greenberg and Paul E. Budlow, who are prosecuting the case.

I have decided to put pearl painted cabinets in my new build kitchen...but I went to 15 houses in the city this week-end...and I was shocked that there was not a white kitchen in any of them. All were very dark stained...very dark hardwood, and ORB pulls and faucets...dark woodwork, very dark painted walls. We went on a gloomy day and the houses made me feel depressed. And of course all of the furniture and furnishings were dark.
Or course, we are in the plains and I hope the white kitchens just have not made it to this area. How about your area? I am planning to use white woodwork, hickory hardwood floors, and keep it light and bright and not cave feeling...and I hope I am not dating it before I get it built! |

Phoggie-I just went to 4 parade homes this past week and none of them had stained cabinets! It's funny what you get used to. I have stained cabinets now and always figured we'd get stained again but after seeing so many white kitchens on here and out and about - they are growing on me, lol! No one I know in real life has white though. The homes I toured all had offset colored islands - wood stained or red or that green tea color. No worries if you are the trend setter over there, someone has to be! ;) What you have chosen sounds very nice and yay for you that you know what feel you are striving for! I am in the midwest by the way and I think with all of the variations I have seen you can do just about anything and it will be fine. Some will love it, some will not but it's your house. I'm not sure what we will end up with but if it's stained I know it won't be dark. We aren't that far and I don't even have a vision in my mind of what I want yet as far as color scheme. I hope eventually I get a spark of something! |
I live in Seattle. Many of the homes that I go into are in expensive neighborhoods. Majority are white if remodeled in the past 5 years. My rentals have white kitchens. I am buying another rental with a white kitchen. My house DOES NOT have a white kitchen but very light. We live in a dark gloomy part of the country. Majority of the houses try to make the house as light as possible. There are some newer kitchens with espresso stained modern kitchens/design. They only do this if there is a huge amount of natural light coming in. Most of the modern design also uses very light color scheme. Seattle new homes often are modern designs. We probably embrace modern more than other parts of the country. When I visit other cities, I am often struck how traditional the home design is in that city. |

In my previous house, I couldn't handle the dark cabinets; they just made the kitchen feel closed in and it wasn't a small kitchen. I finally got up the nerve to paint them a creamy color and loved it. When we sold the house, the realtor told me that was the big money maker. In my current house, the cabinets date from the 1920s or earlier and they have always been painted even though the trim in the house was stained. So I have kept them cream colored. I like both stained and painted cabs but I can only handle a few of the dark stained cabinets. I am sure regions are different and each has progressed according to the tastes of the residents. I like to see diversity in a kitchen and something that makes the kitchen unique to its owners. That is what I would strive for. Diane |

We are a blend - cherry lowers and painted uppers. DH and I absolutely love them. Plus, we bravely did two different cabinets styles. We have east/south exposure. And, I live in a rural area in the Midwest. People thought I was crazy for mixing finishes - until they saw the almost finished product. |

- Clean & Care: Vacuum regularly as new wool rugs can shed yarn fibers for up to three months. Avoid direct and continuous exposure to sunlight. Do not pull loose ends, clip them with scissors to remove. Clean liquid spills immediately by blotting with cloth or sponge. For hard to remove stains, professional rug cleaning is recommended.
The description of this isn't specific enough. It is a 3-D rug. The stars are stiff ribbons that come up and out of the rug about an inch. It is very odd. Not comfortable to walk on. I finally put it in the entrance and bought another one for the bedroom.
RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.Love the colors, black with light gray accents. Goes perfect in the marble entry . Some long threads had to be cut, easy fix. Shipped promptly .
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.Bought two of these in blue. Wouldn't do it again. The silken threads that make the design, shred, fray and come out. This rug is a bad idea.
RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.i received the rug quickly, it looks great, the quality is actually better than i thought it would be as its such a good price!
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.This rug is beautiful! Much better than photo. Service was also excellent. I would highly recommend!
Pleased with rug. Colors true as pictured. Soft and plush...feels great to walk on barefoot. Thickness is great and doesn't slide. Didn't require a pad. The only down side is shedding that is seen on clothing when walking across the rug wearing dark socks or pants / trousers. Be ready to use your lint brush :(

This selection of masterly prints from Albrecht Durer and Rembrandt to David Hockney and Jasper Johns is drawn from the collection of 1,500 prints given and bequeathed by Bowdoin alumnus David P. Becker, class of 1970.
Becker, a former trustee of the College, was an internationally recognized print scholar whose expertise encompassed drawings, illustrated books, and writing manuals. Throughout his life, he collected with the intent to build a comprehensive teaching resource for his alma mater.
This exhibition will introduce visitors to the techniques, themes, and stylistic developments of western printmaking since the Renaissance. The exhibition is on view through March 10, 2013.
