The last installment of this analysis tried to explain government's suicidal fixation on undermining Professor Muhammad Yunus. One possible explanation, as alluded to in that piece- was precision pre-planning for a future where Muhammad Yunus could have been the only formidable stature standing while the whole opposition spectrum is decimated – jailed – removed.

Writing this blog was extremely difficult. Because this blog forced me to watch part of some gruesome videos of public lynching and listen to some poor soul's last cries for life and see beastly traits of mankind. In most cases I turned off the video during the chopping beating scenes. I apologize to AoD readers for posting these gruesome videos, although I guess most of you have already come across this videos through social media. I will strongly advise viewers discretion before watching the videos.
The whole country is still in a standstill after the Long March and Dhaka rally of Hefazate Islam. Hefazate Islam, a conglomerate of several thousands Madrassahs across the country, announced this long march program to press their 13 point demand. Their 13 point demands are the following,
1. Reinstate the phrase " Complete trust and faith in Allah" in the constitution and abolish all laws contradicting the dictates of Quran and Sunnah.
2. National Parliament must pass new law with provision of highest capital punishment for blasphemy.
3. The Murtad atheist bloggers who are leading Shahbag movement and speaking ill of prophet Muhammad ( SM) and Islam must be punished and all the anti Islam campaign must be stopped. Continue reading
Since the beginning of Shahbag square movement, especially since the death sentence announcement of Jamaat leader Delwar Hossain Sayedee, violent confrontation caused the loss of a lots of lives. As there has not been any effort to tabulate an exact death toll, it is very difficult to say precisely how many people died during the last two months of political unrest. A sample count of daily death tolls reports on different violent days during the last 30 days following Sayedee verdict, it is clearly evident that the number of death is very high, unprecedented in the history of post 71 Bangladesh.

It was early or mid 1980s. I am just finishing my high school. 1972 Bangla film ওরা এগারো জন Ora Egaro Jon, was re-released in theaters across the country. In mine and many others' opinion, ওরা এগারো জন is one of the ten best movies ever made in Bangladesh. This movie, made by freedom fighter turned director, Chashi Nazrul Islam and starred by Razzak, Shabana as well as star freedom fighters like Khasru, Nantu etc, is one of the best 1971 related movies ever made.

Mr. Zillur Rahman, The President of Bangladesh, recently passed away while undergoing treatment in Singapore. May his soul rest in peace. His role as a trusted lieutenant to Bangabandhu Mujib and later to Mujib daughter Sheikh Hasina is laudable. He was rewarded for his loyalty, specially for staying loyal to tradition during post 1/11 days. He was a better human being than most in political scene in Bangladesh.
He also is the first sitting President of Bangladesh who could die a normal death. He however is the 3rd Rahman who could become president and is the 3rd one to die a president of Bangladesh, as both other Rahmans who could become President also died in office. This reason of this post, however, is not to speculate who would become the next President of Bangladesh. Phantombd is there to do these sort of speculations.

According to the website of Berlin Based Transparency international, the vision of the organization is a world in which government, politics, business, civil society and the daily lives of people are free of corruption.
And it's mission, as mentioned in the same website, is to stop corruption and promote transparency, accountability and integrity at all levels and across all sectors of society.
But when one looks at some of acts of Transparency International's Bangladesh outlet ( Transparency Internation Bangladesh, TIB)- it is very difficult to match those acts with the mission and vision of Transparency International.
Lets look at some of the recent statements of TIB.

So this is one side of the story. Facebook was used to incite emotion among naive Muslims of Bangladesh. A photo of Kaaba Gilaaf exchange ceremony was broadcast as a rally to vouch for Sayedee as a scholar. The Daily Star's Zulfikar Ali Manik published a front page story with full "gotcha" vigor.
Here is the image of the forgery. Unknown cyber criminals initiated it, a few rightist newspapers published it

Ichigo Loves kisshuIchigo stepped onto the balcony.She sighed as a warm summer breeze blew over her. She had never felt more alone.Aoyama had broken up with her months ago. The café closed soon after the final battle a year ago. and she would not admit why she was feeling empty to anyone.The truth was she missed Kisshu.She missed everything about him: His laugh, His voice, His smile, His liquid gold eyes but most of all how much he loved her.She found out too late that she loved him too." Kisshu," she said looking at the stars. " if you can hear me, I love and miss you."Her eyes began to tear up. She turned around to walk off the balcony but turned back when she heard a noise."Hey, Ichigo what's wrong?"She quickly reconised the voice. It was Shirogane."Go away!" she yelled at the tall blonde teenager."Ichigo you're like my sister and I care about you and the others. So what's wrong?" Shirogane asked again."You laugh at me if I tell the you." She said.He waited for an answer t

Pai replied not looking up from his computer."Why not?""Because you'll take the ship to go to earth to see that silly little yellow mew." Pai said closing his computer."Her name is Pudding and she's my friend!" He yelled at Pai."And why does Kisshu get to go be with Ichigo but I can't even go see Pudding?" He asked still yelling."Because he's older and she's his true love."Pai told Taruto still being calm."You think you know everything don't you? Just 'cause i'm youger I can't love soemone huh? Oops... Nevermind that last remark." Taruto said blushing."So you love her?" Pai asked."Maybe. Not that you know what love is. You've never even had a crush! Now I'm leaving whether you like it or not!" Taruto screamed as he left and slammed the door."I'm going to hurry Pudding. Taru-Taru is coming!" He said to himself putting the ship into high-speed.

I made this dress to wear to a friend's wedding in March.
The red & navy silk brocade was a new purchase, but everything else was made with scraps & remnants already in my stash. The side drape is made with the rayon wool blend that I used for my navy strapless dress, the silk edging is left over lining from the same navy strapless dress, the corset was made with left over red & navy silk (which was interfaced, prior to sewing) & the dress lining was made with left over fabric from the skirt of this dress.
As well as using up a lot of old remnants, this dress was also a bit of a franken pattern creation. The main bodice is from Simplicity 2639, the skirt is from Vogue V1174 & it's all held in place with an internal corset made using Simplicity 5006.
I've included some more information about the construction process on my blog, Orchids In May

Whew, lots of stuff since the last update.
I headed to Canalave City, and battled Barry there. Idiot boy. I trained for the Gym, and wrecked Byron with Vladimir, Dot and Platinum. The there was a big boom, and we went to the library to talk to Rowan and Dawn. Sent of to the lakes y'all. I also found a Shiny Stone and evolved Dekka.
Valor had some freaky Magikarps flopping around. I decided to evolve Apollo, just incase I had to face Cyrus again. Oh no, it's just Saturn. Boy or girl? Anyway, after defeating him/her/it, I went to Verity and defeated Mars. The off to Snowpoint woop.
Freakin hard. I hate that long trekk to Snowpoint. So much snow ;_; I evolved Vladimir as well, to have some extra power. Worst thing is all the Ice Pokemon. Ruto, Platinum, and Dot are almost useless, and they're my most rapetacular. I caught a Snover which I called Nefaery.
I finally got to Snowpoint, and saw Barry running around on top of a cliff. Hope he falls off. I saved after healing my Pokemon.

Just training my current team on Pearl.
Buneary, Luxio, Staravia, Grotle, Prinplup, Monferno.
Caught a Bonsly last week.
I currently have 2 Gym Badges.
Diamond: I decided to go for my next trainer star by checking out the Sinnoh Underground for the first time. With my Explorer Kit that I recieved a long while ago, I finish all the training missions given by the Underground Man which includes making and decorating my Secret Base (which I set up under my house in Twinleaf Town). In addition, I played the flag stealing mini-game using my Pearl game. I also used that opportunity to talk to my Pearl character (a boy named JJ) 32 times just to unlock the Spritomb at Hallowed Tower [which I don't really need since I already traded for it anyway]. After the tedious task of taking JJ's flags 50 times, I finally upgraded to a Platinum Flag and earned the Silver Trainer Card.
Ranch: Hayley wanted an Onix - Obtained, and now a Fearow & Roselia. She bought her Finneon, but is just bringing a Crobat tomorrow when the Ranch expands. I'm currently depositing Plusle & Minun for the event.
Pearl: Caught some Geodude, Onix, Steelix and bred some Plusle so that I could add them to Ranch.

~ Defeated Roark and got my first gym badge.
~ Traded an egg over from Diamond.
~ Piplup evolved into Prinplup.

Hatched an Adamant, Likes to thrash about Gible. Hell yea. If he turns out to have superior over all IV's I'm gonna use berries to perfectly EV train him later.
Fed it 10 protein and 10 carbos, and slaughtered Electabuzz's outside Sunnyshore for a good two hours, gaining speed Ev's and leveling up. Hahaha i love the ground type.
Also switched out to Jolteon when a Floatzel appeared. Of course I had the exp. share on Gible. Now I didn't manually keep track, b/c I'm not worrying about taking forever to perfectly EV train him now, when I can use berries to do it later, but i have been EV training him in Speed and Attack the best I can.
Am currently on route 206 killing ponyta's and machop's to get attack EV's. I'm pretty sure I've maxed his speed, since I must of slaughtered at least 50 Electabuzze's and Floatzels.
My future Garchomp "Hitokiri" will soon be strong enough to single hand-idly annihilate the entire Electric gym. Of course that Electirizer knows Ice punch, so he'll most likely need back-up..haha
"Inherited Will, the Destiny of the Age, and the Dreams of its People. These are things that will not be stopped. As long as people continue to pursue the meaning of freedom, these things will never cease to be!"
Diamond: I decided to get the last remaining Poketch apps that I was missing. By showing some guy in Sunyshore City a Pokemon with a Serious, Naive and Quirky nature, I received the Calender, Drawing Board and Roulette apps respectively [I now have all the apps available except the ones exclusive to events]. Another random thing I did was talk to Mr. Goods for a Gym Statue for my Secret Base. After three days of playing, I was able to obtain a Black Belt, Expert Belt and Focus Sash from a man living in a house near the Pal Park bu showing him different Pokemon of certain levels daily. During this time, I battled all the joggers in the game as I have never managed to do so before due to the fact that they will only battle you in the mornings and I often play at night. Also, I took my Skitty for a walk in the Amity Square and got all the items there. Finally, I managed to gain access to the Ribbon Syndicate in the Resort Area by bringing my Azumarill with its ten ribbons attached.
Decided to re-train a "special attacking" Lucario instead of the "attacking" I have now. Currently hatching eggs until I get a Timid or Modest male. Got my Gabite up to level 42, with his attack and speed stats dwarfing his others. Fast and strong, just how I like um'.
"Inherited Will, the Destiny of the Age, and the Dreams of its People. These are things that will not be stopped. As long as people continue to pursue the meaning of freedom, these things will never cease to be!"
Ranch: Hayley is a *****. She wants a Wingull (which I've already caught, fine) and a Persian (difficult to get on Pearl, but I might get one) and finally a Garchomp...
She bought Ponyta today, and Ranch expands tomorrow with Walrein coming. I visited Tanner's Tauros Ranch yesterday, for my third Club Look-See visit.
Pearl: Thinking Hayley still wanted a Fearow & Roselia I caught some more of them and then remembered her actual list of wants. Caught Wingull on Route 205, and then another one. Put that on GTS for a Persian to see if I can shortcut around that way, as though it's in the Pokédex, I don't seem to have a Meowth or Persian in my PC Boxes. I'm breeding my Garchomp, to get a Gabite, Gible and Garchomp to send to Ranch to try and fill it with at least one of each Pokémon. I also caught some Pichu in Backlot's garden, got a Jigglypuff called "Pummelpuff" from the GTS.

Persian- Annoyingly after catching on LG and levelling against Dunsparce, and evolving, Meowth are now at Backlot's. Grrr.
Mime Jr.- Bred female Mr. Mime, got female Mime Jr., called it Mimien.
Garchomp - Have a Gible egg, that I'll hatch, and then get another. So I can put Gible, Gabite & Garchomp on.
Roserade - I don't have a Shiny Stone, so I'll be digging in the Underground for it.
? - There was something else that was sort of easy to get, but I forget now.
Visited Magnemite Ranch, and took a photo of Maggie beside a Magneton.
Hatched Mime Jr. and another Plusle. Nicknamed them Mimien and Pluses respectively. Also took a trip near to Valley Windworks, and surfed to catch some more Pokémon and discovered that, even though I've played this game since April 2007, more than four years later I haven't picked up TM24 from behind the building.

I've caught a Modest Giratina with good IVs (I didn't care about attack, because I don't want to use this stat). It's got a perfect defense IV.
Pearl: Have been trying my hand at shiny PokéRadar chaining to no avail. But I've boxes full of Kricketot, Starly, Shellos & Zunat for Hayley on Ranch tomorrow.

Pokémon Y - 718/721 Pokémon Caught
I'll trade you anything I can breed one of.
Pearl: Caught Drifloon at Valley Windworks as well as a male Combee off the tree. Might rest Pearl for a bit, besides daily things and Ranch.
Platinum: With Movie 08 Regigigas with me, I went to catch Regice, and it took me 20 Ultra Balls, and a U-Turn and Pursuit from Flutters (Yanma). Regirock next I think, after I get some more money to afford to buy stuff.
Hayleys wanted
Kricketot- Caught and traded for her Pachirisu I think
Garchomp - No chance Hayley.
Roserade - No shiny stone, so also no chance
Barboach - Easy enough, so yes, she'll likely get that
Ranch expands again tomorrow

So I beat the elite four on my first run through. Had to Max-revive once against Cynthia but meh, they use full restores...
Afterwards I only had to see two more pokemon to get to 210. Rotom was easily seen through the TV at the Old Chateau, and I knew the last was Porygon. I planed to use this Porygon as my EV trained one that I will trade to Soul Silver to use for the in-game experience. So I waited until I had access to the Battle Frontier to find out his IV potential.
Yaayy. After about 50 or so soft resets, I finally got a Timid, Alert to sounds Porygon, with superior overall IV's and a perfect Speed IV. I'll EV train him in Sp. Attack and Speed later.
So now I can finally get the National Dex and continue exploring Sinnoh!
"Inherited Will, the Destiny of the Age, and the Dreams of its People. These are things that will not be stopped. As long as people continue to pursue the meaning of freedom, these things will never cease to be!"
I've just started a new Platinum. I am just about to battle Maylene, and am really enjoying playing it again. My team is:
Monferno 31
Mothim 35
Gabite 31
Porygon 25 (only just got it)
Roselia 30
Below is my party. If you are wondering how it works, please mail me.
Quote of the Week:
"A flipped coin doesn't always land head or tails. Sometimes it may never land at all..." - Grimsley
- Got my national Dex upgrade and got to meet Professor Oak. Heard of the legendary birds roaming the Sinnoh region for some strange reason. Have ran into Moltres and Zapdos but not yet Articuno. Mesprit is still out there as well. Dragon Trio has been caught, and I have met the Regigigas statue, but I am going to have pal park the legendary golems from my future emerald version to catch him. Cresselia, I'm not sure about yet. I'm thinking I need to progress the story before she begins to roam around Sinnoh like the rest of um'.
- When on a berry planting spree (The EV draining ones) all over Sinnoh, and bought tons of honey and slathered every tree in Sinnoh with honey. Looking for the damn female Combey. Also re-explored a few nooks and crannies with the Dowsing machine with my two HM slaves in party to clear the way of obstacles and annoying waterways.
- Was about to explore the battle Zone to get a super rod, when I ran into a fisherman right outside the entrance. Now I can finally catch a Feebas! Now I can train a pokemon I've been very interested in since I first saw it in Emerald. Milotic!!! I'll breed one to be Modest and Mischievous, with superior over-all IV's and a perfect Sp. Attack IV. Her Sp. Attack and Speed stats will be EV trained to the max.
- Am now going to figure out which four spots Feebas can be caught in that pool inside Mt. Coronet.

Just caught a shiny Sneasel. Jolly nature. Its IVs are good, except sp.def, speed and sp. atk (I don't care about it, though). 19th chain, not so bad. I'm gonna chain more.

Fitness Gear 45 lb Hammertone Kettlebell
Great Bells
I own several of these kettle bells (25lb,45lb, and 55lb). All of them are great. All function exactly like they are supposed to. My ONE critique, I wish that the handles flared a little more. I have big hands, and while the bells work great for one handed movements and lifts, I can't quite fit both of my hands in the handle when doing 2 handed swings. Still a great product. I even dropped the 45lber on the concrete when getting it out of my car. Small scratch, but there was more damage done to the concrete than the kettle bell.

Scott Hamilton and Dorothy Hamill Return to the Ice in Premier Fox Television Thanksgiving Day Event: 'Kaleidoscope' Sponsored by sanofi-aventis US
CHARLOTTE, N.C., Sept. 23 /PRNewswire/ — Television will be transformed this Thanksgiving Day into a celebration of Skating, Song and Survivorship with the debut of "Kaleidoscope" – a holiday variety special featuring Olympic skating champions and GRAMMY Award-winning music artists. The show will feature the historic return to the ice of the legendary Scott Hamilton in his first television performance since being diagnosed with a brain tumor five years ago. Hamilton and Dorothy Hamill will skate to the music of fellow cancer survivor Olivia Newton-John and one of America's foremost music producers David Foster. Also performing are Olympic Champion Kristi Yamaguchi, two-time Olympic Medalist Nancy Kerrigan and Olympic figure skating hopefuls Johnny Weir and Rachael Flatt.
"Kaleidoscope" from Verizon Center in Washington, D.C. will air nationally on FOX on Thanksgiving Day (Nov. 26) 2009 from 4:00-5:30 p.m. (EST), immediately following the FOX Thanksgiving Day football telecast. Tickets for the 7pm Monday, November 16 taped performance at Verizon Center are on sale now.
"As a two-year cancer survivor, I am excited to be involved with 'Kaleidoscope' to help inspire women to take charge of their health and for cancer survivors to know that they are not alone in their journey," said Hamill, regarding her return to the ice in several years. "This is a tremendous platform to help make a difference in healthcare issues affecting women."
This year, "Kaleidoscope" is in part being presented by sanofi-aventis US a company committed to helping to improve the lives of patients. "We want to thank our advocacy partners, celebrity talent and supporters, especially sanofi-aventis, for helping us shine a light on the cancers that affect women while creating a platform to help them fight this disease," said Mike Burg, CEO of Edge Health, the creator and executive producer of "Kaleidoscope." "Our goal in creating this health initiative is to move beyond just awareness of women's cancers, but to empower women to take action with their health through a powerful event and important messages."
"After losing my mother to cancer, and being in the hands of a tremendous team of women caregivers while I battled my own cancer, I have made it a personal mission to advocate for women and cancer. Coming back to the ice on television for the first time in five years for this initiative gives me a chance to pay tribute to my mother, thank the caregivers who were there for me, and honor all cancer survivors," said Hamilton.
"Kaleidoscope" is a program designed to recognize women and the key role they play in the battle against cancer – as patients, caregivers, and advocates. Its mission is to address issues surrounding women and cancer by helping educate women to be proactive with their health and by honoring all cancer survivors, including the more than 713,000* women who are diagnosed with cancer each year in the United States. This effort is being supported by an unprecedented collaboration with 10 nationwide advocacy partners including: American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO), Breast Cancer Network of Strength (BCNS), C3: Colorectal Cancer Coalition (C3), Gynecologic Cancer Foundation (GCF), The Leukemia & Lymphoma Society (LLS), Lung Cancer Alliance (LCA), National Coalition for Cancer Survivorship (NCCS), Oncology Nursing Society (ONS), Ovarian Cancer National Alliance (OCNA) and the Prevent Cancer Foundation (PCF).
For more information about "Kaleidoscope" please visit www.womenandcancer.com.
"As a cancer survivor, I would not have missed the opportunity to perform in 'Kaleidoscope,' which is an amazing initiative that provides a unique opportunity to help women understand cancer and how to be prepared when dealing with their health. David [Foster] and I are looking forward to performing a very powerful and moving piece of music to honor cancer survivors and motivate women to be proactive in taking care of themselves," said Newton-John.

About a week ago my hostas started being decimated by something. The information on GardenWeb seemed to indicate that the major damage was being caused by cutworms because the eaten areas were huge. I scratched the surface of the earth around some of the affected hostas and did indeed find a few cutworms. I treated the affected hostas by sprinking cornmeal around the hostas being careful to avoid the petioles.
My husband applied diatomectous earth around our house foundation yesterday. I was outside around 10 pm with flashlight in hand to check on my hostas. I found only 3 cutworms in my hosta beds. They were about an inch long and I almost mistaked them for dry litte twigs. One hid on top of the leaf at the base and the others were on the petiole. I had applied the ammonia drench to my hostas in the spring. I found no slugs on my hostas. I did, however, find baby earwigs under a couple of my hostas. I also find a lot of white spiders in my hostas and wonder whether they are beneficial or harmful. I don't know whether the cornmeal worked. I just wanted to report back about my experience. I will try to be more scientific in my approach next year. |
Follow-Up Postings:
Try Captain Jacks Bug Brew. It has Spinosad which goes after bugs. Certified for organic gardening. So safe you could almost drink the stuff. -Babka |
Hey, three cutworms is a good nights work! I saw some munched areas on Tokudama F the other day and couldn't find the fiend. Saw more damage today on it today....grrrrrrrr... and looked again and found him under a rock. It's so satisfying to find them! I have been using a little Sluggo plus which has the Spinosad, but I have to apply it under little cages so that the chipmunks don't eat it all, which is a hassle. I despise cutworms! |
I have never had the problem with cutworms that I do this year. They are eating everything! The slugs haven't been a problem at all since it's been so dry. I have Monterey Insect Spray which also has Spinosad in it, so I think I might try that. You just have to be very careful around bees with Spinosad since it will kill them. I have also heard not to use it around ponds. Jen |
It's the mild winter we had. The Dallas Arboretum's hosta gardens were decimated by cutworms. I had to spray for them and that's the first time I've ever had the problem. There are so many aphids in my trees that everything is sticky. There are flies everywhere; gnats are out of hand. You can barely stay outside because of the mosquitos. They found the West Nile Virus in mosquito populations here at least 6 weeks earlier than usual. It's just a bad bug year across most of the U.S. Hopefully we'll have some winter this year and next year will be better. bkay |
Never had problems with Cut worms till this year. Little buggers are starting to piss me off. I agree with Bkay, warm weather is making it bad for bugs. |

I thought I was jinxed or something! The cutworms were absolutely horrendous and ruined the looks of so many of my hostas. I'm having foliar nematodes on several. And NOW something is visiting at night and chewing the leaves off my most beloved and/or most expensive hostas. Lord I hope we have a better time of it next year. Judy |

ABC News' Molly Hunter reports: CNN, the cable news channel, has apologized for mistakenly labeling a supposedly demoralized college Republican lamenting a lack of support on his campus for the Sen. John McCain, R-Ariz.
"While [Eric Perlmutter] attends USC and says that he is a registered Republican, he was inadvertently fonted as a member of the USC College Republicans organization. We regret that fonting error," a CNN spokesperson told ABC News Friday.
CNN interviewed Perlmutter Thursday in a taped report on CNN's "American Morning," who suggested the College Republicans at the University of Southern California are having trouble getting people to their meetings.
"We try to get people to our college Republican meetings and we can't seem to draw the same type of vocal support [as the Obama supporters get]," said Perlmutter, who was identified as a member of the "USC Young Republicans."
The trouble is, Perlmutter isn't a member of the group.
"I've never met him, heard of him, talked with him, nothing," USC College Republican president Ben Myers told ABCNews.com.
Myers said he's infuriated with CNN, and argued his group is attracting a lot of support on campus.
"We get a ton of people at our meetings, and a ton of really enthusiastic people," Myers said, "there is a lot of enthusiasm for McCain and for the conservative movement in general."
CNN will air an interview with Ben Myers on Monday's "American Morning."
A CNN website story quoting Perlmutter and titled "Young Conservatives Worry About McCain's Appeal" updated Thursday evening to correctly label Perlmutter as a "Republican and a USC student."
The spelling of Perlmutter's name has also been corrected, which was originally aired as "Pearlmutter."

My point is only that it does happen. Whites can be, and sometimes are victims to racism.
My point is what you consider "racism" is borne out of the fact that you're so privileged that you simply can't differentiate it from other forms of non-racist a*****e-ness. A cop was a jerk to you one time? Join the club pal. But in your mind the only reason this could have ever possibly happened ever is "racism," even though the facts of your story say otherwise.
They had strongly considered it. But in the end, most of them just decided "******** them..." and moved on to bigger and brighter things. Just didn't think it'd be worth the hassle. Especially the price for a lawyer and court costs.
No. They were smarter than that.
Promotions? No. They pretty much kept people where they were, presumably to keep them doing what they already know, while "fixing up" the place.
No. They were smarter than that.
Promotions? No. They pretty much kept people where they were, presumably to keep them doing what they already know, while "fixing up" the place.
So if all the people just quit, the management didn't use racial slurs, and the black employees didn't get preferential treatment....THEN HOW THE HELL IS THAT RACIST?
But they certainly did fire white people. Mostly for bullshit reasons. In fact, my own family member quit while on "suspension" (a step in the process). Her crime? Gossiping. Except that she was gossiping AT HOME, on her own time. That's not legal grounds for disciplinary action at work. And she only quit, because she was fed up with the bullshit, and wanted to get out, while she could still do it voluntarily. My family take pride in the fact that most of us have never been fired from any job. And she wasn't going to let them be her first.
Once again, evidence that your privilege is clouding your judgement. Usually when someone buys an established business it's because the business isn't doing so well in the first place, correct? Have you considered the fact that the people who got fired were ******** ups who needed to be fired?
Hey all the new employees are black. Well is this hotel in a black neighborhood? Is it the same neighborhood where you got racially profiled-but-not-really by the cops?
What you're describing is nothing new, and it happens in all business, of every type. When new management comes in they shake things up, and usually like to trim the fat, and bring in new people, especially in retail/service jobs that have a high turnover rate to begin with. What your'e describing I've seen happen a million times - but none of those instances were because of racism.
And thus far, nothing you've told me seems to imply this is because of racism either, beyond "All the new people they hired were black." I've worked in places where 99% of the staff were latinos - yet that wasn't because the management was racist.
Because it was ONLY white people. And for "crimes" that the black employees were equally guilty of. The person my family member was gossiping with, outside of work? She was black. She was not so much as "talked to", but my family member was outright suspended.
The problem here is "How do I know?" You're a person who thinks that simply getting stopped by the cops, when you're a white person in a black neighborhood is "racial profiling." Maybe the black employee didn't actually do the things you thought. Maybe they got reprimanded too but didn't make a big deal out of it. Maybe the white people who got fired were just ******** ups who showed up late all the time. Maybe the manager simply didn't like their attitude? I'm going to assume you live in a "At will" state, correct? That means the management can fire someone for any reason at all, whatsoever, including "gossiping about staff." Doesn't matter where it happens, that's a perfectly valid reason to fire someone.
But no, it must be racism. No other reason.
Not "gothic" specifically. Except my studded wrist-band, which I was not wearing that day. Just a decent pair of blue jeans, and a tee shirt. Nothing "suspicious" or otherwise noteworthy.
I suppose they could, if they wanted to appeal to certain stereotypes. Which is absolutely not ok. The fact is, he had no probable cause to stop and question me. Least of all, to berate me, and treat me like a criminal.
So you do dress in black T-shirts with metal bands and s**t on them and jeans, i.e. you look like a kid, i.e. you look like someone who might possibly be there to buy drugs. Probable cause has been established.
I love how the more details we get about your stories, the less racist they become.
But they can't stop and harass random individuals on a hunch. I was doing nothing suspicious. He had no grounds to stop me, and treat me like some 2 bit criminal, when I had done nothing. I was just walking. On the sidewalk. In broad daylight, on a glorious morning. That does not constitute probable cause for anything.
Incorrect, they can and will do this, all the time, all over the country, for whatever reason they deem meets "probable cause." The probable cause in this case could have been any number of things. My "drug buyer" theory is only one possible explanation. Maybe someone matched your description? Maybe they had reports of home invasion robbers wearing your clothes. Maybe you look like someone else they were looking for.
But no, the police wouldn't ever ever ever in a million years think you could be a criminal. Must be racism.
Well, when you're stopped for doing exactly nothing except being a racial minority, and furthermore, when you're treated like a scumbag for absolutely no reason, that's...well...pretty likely to give off racial tones.
Did the cop use racial slurs, when he was 'harassing' you? No? Then guess what - not racist. Simply an a*****e cop. Like I said, join the club.
I don't pretend to be straight up to date on the legal end of the deal, but I'm fairly sure that the suspect has a right to know what they're being suspected of.
Incorrect, the police have no obligation to inform you about any details of an investigation they may be doing. Telling you why they stopped you is a professional courtesy, not a requirement.
Not specifically "made fun of" it. But he did ask me, and when I told him, he remarked about how "that's not even enough to buy the gas to get you back to where you came from".
If he would have said "that's not even enough to buy the gas to get you back to where you came from, you white-devil cracker-a** honkey ********," then that would be racist. Otherwise, a*****e, cop, join, club.
I'm fairly sure that's exactly why. But that's not ok. He had no probable cause to suspect it. Just a white boy with long hair. That is not probable cause for anything. Including the assumption of being a pot-head.
Incorrect. Just you being in that neighborhood dressed like a kid who might do drugs is probable cause.
Yeah, actually assuming a white person must be a pot-head because he has long hair, is rather racist.
Please, don't tell me about the long hair, ok kid? You don't know the half of it. But no, this is not racist. Do you look like a like one of those death rocker, metal-head, hesher types that might want to smoke weed or snort coke? Do they sell drugs in this area? Yes or no?
Do you think anyone looks sideways at a Native American with long hair? Are they assumed to be drug addicts based solely on the length of their hair? Not generally. But if you're white, suddenly you have to be doped up. Apparently white men's hair doesn't grow past the ear-lobe, except as a by-product of THC.
But we aren't talking about Native Americans, we're talking about you, a long-haired white boy dressed up with black metal T-shirts and s**t, walking around in an all black neighborhood where they possibly sell drugs. Why is it just suddenly racist to suspect such an individual might be up to no good?
2 extremely different locations. My sister was pulled over in our hometown, which is very diverse. I was stopped in a town where white people are such a minority, that the vast majority of them are damn near universally recognizable.
Doesn't change the fact that if this cop was polite to you, then you wouldn't be crying "racism."
Like I said, just an a*****e cop - join the club.
Yeah, just like that Trayvon Martin kid. Walking through a predominately white gated community, armed to the teeth with skittles and iced tea. It was his fault, for being out of place...
But George Zimmerman wasn't a cop, was he? You didn't get blown away by an overzealous wannabe racist vigilante, did you? We don't have audio of the cops in your case using a racial slurr, do we?
You know, a few posts ago you were complaining that I was comparing your weaksause episodes of racism, to other racism. Well now you're comparing your example - in which some cops made fun of you, then let you go, to an instance where a kid was walking in a neighborhood where he lived and was shot by some random racist a*****e. Like I said, not even close to the same thing.
Ah. So you actively promote racial profiling.
So if a black kid walked down a predominately white neighborhood, you'd advocate the cops stop him, frisk him, inquire the content of their wallet, and generally treat them like a ******** felon, because "He's a racial minority here. He's out of place. Of COURSE the cops are going to be suspicious!"
Just answer the question please. Do people sell drugs in this area? Yes or no?
The rest of your s**t is just the same stuff, repeated over and over. You're simply delusional, and so privileged that you cannot understand how someone could be an a*****e to you, so it must be racism. Like I said before, it happens, but just not as prevalent, systematic, widespread, or institutional.
One more descriptor I'd like to add to that is "damaging."

I feel pretty safe saying this is an Oak (but I'm not too knowledgeable about trees/plants in general). Do you know what type of Oak? I'll post a close-up of leaves and acorn in a few minutes. Thank you! |

Looks like Northern Red Oak from what I can tell - Quercus rubra. Slight possibility of it being a Shumard as well. |
Thank you! |
Northern red oak, given the acorn & characteristic "ski tracks" on the bark in the top pic (twisting my head to see). |

Stosur's Wimbledon adventure over
Comment on this storyLondon - Former US Open champion Sam Stosur's unhappy union with Wimbledon continued on Monday as the Australian became the highest seed to fall by the wayside after a 6-3 6-4 first-round defeat by Belgian Yanina Wickmayer.
Cheered on by four-time grand slam champion Kim Clijsters from the stands, Wickmayer dominated play from the baseline to leave the 17th seed chasing shadows on a warm and sunny day at southwest London.
The result condemned Stosur to her sixth first-round exit at the grasscourt major, a tournament where she has failed to progress beyond the third round in 12 visits.
Wickmayer will next face Croatia's Ana Konjuh for a place in the third round.

I am an avid reader and belong to a book club at our church. We have been nicknamed "The Fluff Club" because we don't like to read really heavy duty books.

My favorite cookbook is the one I am writing. I am taking all of my vast collection of recipes re-vamping them to low-fat and low sugar recipes. Did I mention that cooking is my passion. I have cooked on Wednesday night's for our church dinners, catered many events for local businesses and this summer I will be the cook for a mission trip to an Indian reservation in Nebraska.
My other passion is my family: my husband and I have two grown sons, two daughters-in-love, one granddaughter and two grandsons (one born on Christmas Day 2005, we never did get to eat dinner that day and he is worth it).
My pet peeve is: people who show disrespect to their spouses.
My favorite dish to cook is Smoked Rice with Chicken, it is always a crowd pleaser and some people tell me it is their family favorite during the holidays.

Hello All, I recently purchased a house with about 6 acres of black walnut trees. I'm looking for some advice on how to care for and maintain. The previous owner spent a great amount of time putting down round-up along the rows of trees and mowing in between. There are many other types of trees mixed in; Ash (almost all dead or soon to be, thanks EAB!), sugar maple, oak, tulip, etc. The majority are black walnut, however. All grown to be veneer wood. I estimate somewhere in the range of 700 trees. I think it could be worth a bit of money someday. The white oak have been horrendous with sprouts on their trunks. I've pulled off the little, non-woody sprouts and will try to get the rest in the fall/winter when dormant. What would you recommend I do to keep up with the trees? Should I continue to round-up and around the trunks and mow the rest? It looks really nice but all said and done, it's about 5 hours of mowing a week! As you can see in the picture, they still have a good 20 years to go before any real value. I am at a crossroad as I've got little free time to spend on the trees due to my job and family. I also worry about the spreading thousand cankers disease. Thoughts? Thanks for your help! |

i HIGHLY RECOMMEND.. that you contact your county extension office.. and ask for a referral to the state forester.. who cruises thru your county every now and then .. frankly.. with mature trees like that.. all you can do is harm them... leave them alone ... mow as previously ... and i can tell you how to round up.. if you like the design ... if its taking you 5 hours to mow.. get a riding lawnmower.. you are property owner now ... my zero turn 38 inch.. looks like i could do that inside 15 mins or so.. but perhaps the pic is deceptive ... its definitely not a push mower thing.. nor is the rest of the lawn i see ... unless you have one [i see tire tracks] .. but it doesnt fit down the rows .. crikey that would p.o. me.. lol.. but do keep in mind.. the trees dont need to be mowed weekly.. like you might prefer the rest of the lawn .... BTW .. where are you???? more facts please ... ken |
Hi Ken, Thanks for the quick response. I'll check on the state forester. I do have a GrassHopper mower with a 61" deck that I mow full speed on. Including the lawn around the house, it's a total of 10 acres that, except where the trees and house are, is lawn... So yes, the trees take about 2.5-3 hours to mow, the rest around 2.5. I've been mowing the tree area every couple of weeks and the rest every week. So, maybe not 5+ hours every week, but it's still a lot of time. I don't mind, and most of the time enjoy the work, I'm just wondering what others would recommend. As far as round-up goes, I bought the knock-off version from TSC a few weeks ago. It appears to kill the grass but is having a tough time with the weeds in the tree rows. I'm thinking I should spend the money and get the real stuff. However, real or not, I do worry about the safety of the product. I'm in southwest michigan. Thanks again for your response! |
6 acres of black walnut is a lot of future CHA-CHING! You are sitting on a gold mine there. I'm glad to see that you plan on putting forth upkeep on a black walnut timber stand. I stopped a semi truck driver a few years back who had these huge timber logs on the back of his low boy. I asked him what he was hauling and he said black walnut. Then I asked if it was really worth that much money. He looked at me and said "Ya see that load right there, That's worth a quarter million easy!" I couldn't believe it. Anyways, I heard here recently from a reliable source that thousand cankers disease seems to be affecting black walnut in more urban conditions and way less in timber situations. Is it still a threat caused by a beetle that's closely related to the elm beetle that caused the demise of the American Elm at an alarming rate? You bet. But from what I was told, it's the back walnut trees that are stressed from urban conditions that seem to be more susceptible. I hope this is true because I am in prime black walnut country. |

i use generic TS RU ... thats not your problem... i suspect you may not have studied the label ... different weeds require different dilutions [annual vs perennial vs vines vs stunk killing] ... i go with what i think is level 2 ... or about 2 5/8 oz per gallon ... or lets just call it 'just under 6 oz' for my tank ... the real trick is to learn your sprayer.. filled with water... and learn how to make big drops.. that gravity makes fall to earth ... and the biggest variable with that is just enough pumps to create such.. using too much pressure... makes it drift like perfume .. and that isnt usually good ... you can also adjust the nozzle... and when you get real good.. the trigger ... and when you master it all.. you can make single drops come out the tip .... anyway ... i understand why the grass was kept from the trees when they were seedlings or small transplants... what i dont understand is why it needs to be maintained... with mature trees as such ... except as an aesthetic ... to look pretty ... those trees are now super competitors ... finding and taking.. everything they need.. no grass nor weed is going to have any impact on them ... so i really dont understand why you need to mow more than once or twice per year ... if that ... in regard to the trees.. rather than perhaps zoning issues ... and that would be a prime subject for the forester.. where is +om when you need him .. lol .. as you can see at the link ... i have failed in google... for lack of proper words to search ... thought nuts are technically a fruit.. you are not really dealing with high fruit production crop trees... like apple/etc .... so the info in regard to such.. is not narrowed to the issue which you face .... i am in Adrian MI there are a lot of orchards out your way ... and they may be a great source of info ... if you can talk to the manager ... and a reason.. the forester probably loops thru your area often ... the orchard.. may even be able to give you a contact ... ken |

I would think keeping the trunk clear of limbs as high up as practical would be the highest priority. You want straight clear wood with as few knots as possible to get top dollar for the walnut wood. Got a pole pruner and a good orchard ladder? Mike |

you should look into silvopasture.....instead of spending your time and money on gas and herbicides you can get some sheep or cattle to clean up and fertilize at the same time (manure). Sheep would probably be better because they will cause less compaction of the soil. You could make an extra profit on the meat and wool. |
Cattle would be out of the question as any damage to the trunks would be a problem. Not sure about sheep... |
- Posted by mikebotann 8a SE of Seattle (email@example.com) on Tue, Jul 8, 14 at 17:18
Fences aren't cheap and the cost of a flock of sheep is expensive, both in money AND labor. Sheep are more economically feasible on open range. Pretty soon the walnut canopy will be so complete hardly a thing will grow under it, then what will the sheep eat? I'd check the walnut log buyers and see what length and diameter they prefer, and work from there as far as the pruning and harvesting goes. Mike....in,... out of the heat. It's almost 80F. out there! ;-) |
- Posted by greenthumbzdude (My Page) on Tue, Jul 8, 14 at 17:49
I would just buy one of those portable electric fences and hook it up to a solar panel. Have a backup charge just in case.After the sheep have eaten everything within the fence move it somewhere else. Six acres should be more than enough to have a constant supply of green grass. You dont need many sheep either just a few...also, walnuts do not create dense shade.....they leaf out late and drop early so there is going to be an understory of some herbaceous plant. |
Mowing in a tree plantation seems like a waste of time and money. Rent out the huge lawn area for hay if it is enough acreage. |
- Posted by ken_adrian MI z5 (My Page) on Wed, Jul 9, 14 at 9:44
boy have you all gone off the deep end.. how did this end up a conversation on animal husbandry ... did i miss OP suggesting that was an option ... lol .. mike.. complaining about 80 degrees... yikes ... lol one further thing i thought of.. i have 5 acres... i leave one acre or so ... uncut ... and as former horse pasture.. i call it a wildflower garden ... perhaps you are fixated on keeping it as the prior owner did.. mowed .. and that isnt necessary ... so why mow it.. you have plenty of lawn .. so why mow at all???? it would start to look more like a natural forest ... rather than a green carpet with big trees in it ... i would favor the natural look ... or rather.. use that for an excuse not to mow.. lol ... ken |
Thanks for all the advice and opinions! If I have more time someday, I may try to keep up with it all. For now, I think I will try the natural look. |

I enjoyed this pre-movie cartoon more than the actual feature (Brave) we paid to see. I could watch this 100 times and still be moved by its simple beauty.

The Denon S-5BD Integrated 5.1 AV Receiver & Blu-ray / DVD / CD Player is an AVR/BD combo unit that effortlessly combines high quality audio with Profile 2.0 Blu-ray playback capability delivered in an elegant, streamlined package. Its slew of features and classic design make it ideal for custom installations while its performance is on par with audiophile standards.
The award-winning S-5BD offers support for high definition visuals along with high definition surround sound decoders including Dolby TrueHD and DTS-HD Master Audio. The unit features AL24 processing to reduce distortion and accurately reproduce the original analog waveform while Denon's direct mechanical ground construction reduces vibration to optimize its audio support. The convenient Audessy volume control balances commercials and other loud source material with softer volumes, so you don't have to reach for the remote to manually balance the volume.
Proprietary Audessy MultEQ provides room acoustic measurement and correction, sensing the amount and type of speakers that are connected and then customizing the sound to the environment. This process uses the included microphone, which plugs into the front panel.
With support of HDMI 1.4 for Audio Return Channel capability, iPod connectivity and support of 2-source, dual-zone sound, this unit packs many features into its intelligent design. Multi-channel analog outputs allow for 5.1 configuration or 7.1 with the addition of a power amp. Meanwhile, 1080p/24p video output and DVD scaling up to 1080p offer enhanced picture quality. Of course, it also gives you the interconnectivity of BD-Live when paired with an internet connection and memory card with 1GB of memory.
The front panel carries on in sophistication yet gives you convenience at your fingertips. Unique peripheral jackknife doors open to reveal an HDMI and USB port that accommodates your iPod directly, and an SD memory card slot to display photos or other media. When not in use, these doors swing down to maintain the unit's sleek profile. The graphical user interface of the unit is easy to navigate, and the Glo-key remote features glow buttons for use in dark viewing environments.
- AL24 Processing
- Denon's proprietary AL24 processing reduces quantization distortion and supports higher numbers of bits and higher sampling rates to support future media. This system interpolates input data to reproduce the original analog waveform.
- Audessy MultEQ
- This system measures and corrects the audio characteristics of your speaker system using the included microphone with up to 6 measurement points. It takes into account the number and type of speakers and makes fine tuning adjustments accordingly. The sound of the system is automatically customized for your space, ensuring optimum audio quality.
- Audyssey Dynamic Volume
- This intuitive feature evens out variations between TV programming, commercials and the volume contrast in movies. This way you don't have to touch the controls to make minute volume adjustments when volume levels change. It's perfect for late night viewing or when watching standard TV programs with commercials in between.
- 5 Channels of Power
- Connect 5 speakers without separate power amps for the pre-outs. Accompanying Dolby Digital EX and DTS ES sound modes, you can connect the surround back speaker to the main amplifier without adding a power amplifier to support 5.1 surround formats. Internal amplifiers power each channel independently and you can enjoy the same high power output capability per channel. This system delivers balanced, exceptional quality surround sound.
- Solid Construction
- Achieve optimum quality audio and video thanks to the quality build of this unit. Direct mechanical ground construction reduces jitter and independent block construction protects the system against electromagnetic interference for a strong signal. Digital, power amplifier, and pre-amplifier stages each have their own power supply for reduced power consumption in standby mode and quality performance.
- Compressed Audio Restoration
- This feature enhances your digital music files when playing them, to restore their original condition before compression. Additionally, it adjusts the volume sense in the low range. Get a higher quality playback from your WMA and MP3 files.
- The unit supports HDMI version 1.4, which introduces the option of an Audio Return Channel. This means that the unit can receive audio data from your TV via an HDMI cable without the use of additional cabling, giving you more flexibility without needing an additional S/PDIF audio connection. Of course, it additionally supports Deep Color meaning it can transfer 10-bit, 12-bit and 16-bit (RGB or YCbCr) color depths and x.v. color, allowing for a broader color space.
- 2.0/2.1 Channel Dynamic Play
- This assigns surround channel amplifiers to the front channel amplifiers to give you a richer, fuller sound from just two speakers. It is implemented automatically without any additional setup requirements.
- BD-Live 2.0 Readiness
- Take advantage of the BD-Live capability of this unit using the Ethernet connection on the back panel. This means you can download and view online bonus materials, along with an SD memory card with at least 1GB of memory inserted into the front-panel slot.
- Multiple Audio Format Support
- The unit supports Dolby Digital, Dolby Digital Plus, Dolby Pro Logic II, Dolby Pro Logic IIx, DTS 96/24, dts-ES Extended Surround and dts Neo:6 Surround encoded discs. It also supports Dolby Virtual Speaker technology to realistically simulate a 5.1 surround experience from just two speakers. The system automatically switches to surround sound when showing video programs, and chooses stereo on its own when it has a music source.
- Cinema Equalizer
- Audio recorded in Dolby Digital, DTS, or other formats tend to emphasize high-frequency range because of front speaker placement in an actual movie theater. Without any adjustment, the high-frequency range can be too intense in a dedicated home theater setup. The amplifier with this system features a Cinema Equalizer to balance the high-frequency components to create a clearer sound designed for home theater implementation.
- Multi-Room Functionality
- Select separate audio sources for listening in different locations. Different sources can be played in the main room and in other rooms simultaneously.
- Front Panel Access
- Concealed by the swinging jackknife doors when not in use for a clutter-free space, the front panel of the unit allows easy access to an HDMI port that accommodates a digital camcorder, inputs for an iPod or USB memory player and also a slot for an SD memory card.
- iPod Connectivity
- Charge, control and play media from your iPod anytime it is hooked into the front-panel USB port. This unit is designed to work with iPod devices either through connection with a cable or by hooking it into an optional additional dock like the Denon ASD-51N or ASD-51W. Featuring Plug N Play, playback begins immediately when you connect your iPod or memory player to the unit.
- Remote Control Functionality
- The front of the remote has larger buttons that are frequently used, and less necessary ones are situated at the back. Additionally the One Touch Play feature automatically switches on power to the TV input and immediately begins the movie, along with an HDMI CEC-enabled TV. This remote can additionally control other devices from other manufacturers.

centers, have become available recently through state cooperative agreements for emergency preparedness and response from CDC and HRSA.
Research investigations and surveillance activities are supported through many of the DHHS agencies as well as other agencies and departments outside of DHHS. The primary agencies are CDC, the National Institutes of Health, and the Environmental Protection Agency. In addition, regulatory, policy, and planning activities related to poisoning prevention and control occur in a number of federal agencies. Table 9-3 gives an overview of the types of poisonings addressed (e.g., alternative therapies, pesticides, occupational exposures, terrorism, drugs of abuse) by the various federal agencies.
Although a variety of agencies at the federal, state, and local levels have responsibility for one or more components of the Poison Prevention and Control System, there is currently no uniform, clear point of accountability at any level of government. There are uneven linkages and collaboration among the various agencies responsible for data collection and analysis, research and evaluation, policy and regulatory development, health education and other prevention activities, and clinical services and quality standards, as well as financing and payment for services across the agencies involved. Two federal agencies (CDC and HRSA) have funds earmarked for poison control centers, but these funds have not been directed to and are not sufficient to support the core activities for the proposed Poison Prevention and Control System. Furthermore, no federal agency has research funds specifically allocated for poisoning; this lack of support makes it difficult to develop a comprehensive picture of the epidemiology of poisonings or to understand the best way to deliver poison prevention and control services.
To achieve the ultimate goal of preventing poisonings, as well as to improve the outcomes for those who are poisoned, the Committee envisions the need for a clear, single point of accountability at each level of government. The responsible agencies would ensure the accomplishment of all of the core functions or essential services as they relate to poison prevention and control (Table 9-1). This does not mean that the responsible agencies would perform all of the functions within their agency. However, they would (1) take responsibility for the plan for accomplishing the activities needed to ensure the system is in place with a set of uniform standards across the country, and (2) convene and work with the other agencies, including the existing poison control center network, to implement the plan. Furthermore, the responsible agencies at the state and federal levels should work in partnership to develop a set of perfor-

A little bird told me she was having a hard time finding Reynolds Soft Linen; not to worry – I didn't hallucinate… it's just that it's a brand new yarn. It'll be available really soon.
Good thing IK posted such a pretty picture because I once again forgot my camera at home. I'll be back tomorrow with pictures and possibly a tubular cast on how to. If I remember that camera!

I wanted to say how much I love your designs, and once again I will be making one of them.
I love this cardigan and I am dropping everything to knit it!! But I'm running into a problem with row 2 of the lace pattern. It reads: *P1, yo, p2tog; repeat from * to last st, p1. I'm knitting the 36 1/4 size and with 51 sts for the sleeve the numbers aren't working. I've contacted IK, but no response, can you help a knitter out?
I don't have my copy of the magazine yet so I have to go by my unedited version. So, here goes: 51 includes 2 selvedge sts as well as the repeat of 3sts+1 so do add up. I found it helpful when increasing to keep the patterned section between markers and to move the markers outward towards the selvedges only when there were enough new stitches to include in the pattern.
That sounds pretty convoluted.. I'll try my best to take pictures and blog about that later this week…
I love this cardigan so much! But i cant find the yarn anywhere!! (Plus i'm from Australia hehe). Could suggest a suitable alternative or provide the gauge for the Linen Soft? (i have the mag already) Was the cardigan knitted at a looser tension than required? I can see you used size 5 needles – does this mean the yarn is sport, or DK? (please say DK hahahaha!)….
I'm sorry for all the questions, but i've googled 'Linen Soft' and cant find anything! Thanks so much!
ohh, scrap that – i've found this http://www.patternworks.com/PWShopping/partsvyarn.asp?action=lookup&partno=909&subject=&catpos=
sorry for your trouble! (and it is DK – w00t!)
I just wanted to thank you for yet another brilliant pattern, Veronik. Your designs were an important attraction when I first began to knit two autumns ago, and I continue to look forward to new ones each season!
that cardigan is absolutely beautiful.
i've did the lace pattern for the gauge, and to my horror found that it looked nothing like the adorable lace on the sweater. i suspect it may have to do with my tension between the stitches being off. i'm making another little scrap of lace pattern, maybe i should take a photo of it.. i can't figure out what is wrong, i'm sure i'm doing everything right, and keep re reading the pattern more carefully hoping i can find the glitch..
okay nevermind i think i have it now
Hi Veronik:
So I need to know what the Joni Mitchell connection is with this sweater. I am a HUGE Joni fan. The IK blurb was a teaser.
I love the pattern, thanks, sue
Thank you Sue! I was wondering the EXACT same thing! suchhh a teaser!
ps- love love love love love this sweater! I just ordered cotlin in Key Lime from KnitPicks for it!
This may be a dumb question, but here you go…
I've just bound off the stitches for the armholes, and am ready to start decreasing in the lace pattern. Are you supposed to knit the first and last four stitches on the right side in stockinette, and then do the decreases on the wrong side? Or are the decreases supposed to happen on the right side? Also, do those four stitches include the selvedge edge stitch? I tried to look at the tutorial but I didn't get it.Please help!
Ooh, this is so pretty. The color is perfect too.
