Countdown To The 20th Running: The 1996 Brickyard 400
July 06, 2013 | By NASCAR Media
August 3, 1996
Pole Winner:
Jeff Gordon
Race Winner:
Dale Jarrett
The 1996 Brickyard 400 will forever be remembered for the "kiss" that started a lasting tradition.
Dale Jarrett, one of the best big-stage drivers in NASCAR history, had already won two Daytona 500s, including the 1996 edition. This was arguably the next brightest spotlight.
And he starred again, capping off the celebration by kissing the bricks at the start-finish line, a tradition that lives to this day.
The race was the site of new paving that had been added since the previous August, which raised the speed about five miles per hour.
As the race began, Jeff Gordon and Mark Martin led the field of 40 cars under the green flag to begin the third annual Brickyard 400. But Gordon's hopes for a second silver brick – the famous trophy awarded Brickyard 400 victors – ended when he cut a right-front tire and drilled the concrete. He limped the DuPont Chevrolet back to the pits, and his crew affected repairs, but Gordon was out of the running.
At the front of the pack now, Kyle Petty ran the point with his Coors Light Pontiac and Johnny Benson followed close behind. Petty then cut a tire and smacked the fourth-turn wall, bouncing off into the path of Sterling Marlin. Benson's yellow Pontiac then led, with his crew working through the pit stops flawlessly with two-tire stops.
Late in the race, Benson and his team made a slight mistake during a late pit stop under caution. Benson fell back to 13
during the restart. Ernie Irvan and Jarrett had worked their way to the front when the green flag fell. Terry Labonte had his Kellogg's Chevrolet at the point, with Ricky Rudd right behind, followed by Jarrett and Irvan. This format lasted 10 laps then Jarrett moved to the point with Irvan in hot pursuit. Irvan then passed Jarrett four laps later and the two Robert Yates Racing Fords began a brilliant duel that lasted the remainder of the race.
With six laps to go, the door finally opened when Irvan drove a little too hard into the corner. Jarrett saw his opportunity and yanked his Ford left and nailed the accelerator. Jarrett drew even with Irvan then regained control of the lead. Jarrett rolled to victory at the Brickyard 400, which was huge for Jarrett and the Yates team.
Jarrett's win marked the first time a Ford had gone to victory lane in the three years of the Brickyard 400 race.

Mathematics is a highly interconnected and cumulative subject. The mathematics curriculum therefore needs to introduce ideas in such a way that they build on one another. Instead of seeing mathematics as a set of disconnected topics, students should perceive the relationships among important mathematical ideas. As students build connections and skills, their understanding deepens and expands.
The curriculum also must focus on important mathematics--mathematics that is worth the time and attention of students and that will prepare them for continued study and for solving problems in a variety of school, home, and work settings. The relative importance of particular mathematics topics is likely to change over time. Topics such as recursion, iteration, and the comparison of algorithms have emerged and deserve increased attention because of their relevance.
Students should have opportunities to learn increasingly more sophisticated mathematical ideas as they progress through the grades. They should not spend a significant part of their instructional time reviewing mathematics content. A well-articulated curriculum is necessary for teachers at each level to know what mathematics their students have already studied and will study in future grades.

High speed chase starts at I-35

Four females were taken into custody after a high speed chase that began early Monday morning.

New Urban Eats: 20 new restaurants for $30
New Urban Eats appears to be a just-launched initiative to feature 20 new Seattle-area restaurants offering $30 prix fixe meals in the month of May. I don't know that this is the right way to experience a restaurant. After being disappointed by NYC's restaurant week over and over (and over), I'm a believer in going on a night when the place isn't being invaded by cheapo bargain hunters. Wait staff get bad 'tudes, and you can just taste the resentment of the kitchen staff who are forced to churn out meal after cookie-cutter meal. That said, there are two Capitol Hill restaurants on the New Urban Eats slate: Crush at 2319 E Madison St and Dinette at 1514 E Olive Way. Either any good? [Via Voracious]

More than 36,000 New Yorkers live in city shelters, streets and subway stations. In a neighborhood bustling with cultural attractions, including the New Museum, Cryptome's artwork was meant to be a bold response to the plight of the city's poor and displaced. Their praise-worthy attempt to engage dialogue between the changing neighborhood's soon-to-be forgotten and those that overlook the reality of homelessness in a neighborhood overrun with fancy eateries and boutique clothing stores was instead censored and removed from sight– an experience the homeless people of New York know all too well.
The eight curated panels sought out answers to tough questions like: "Have you been colonized?", "What's your worth?", "Are you hungry?", and "Where will you sleep?". We speculate that the New Museum didn't take kindly to the implied offense nor did they wish to be included in the conversation on gentrification and its impact on the Bowery's homeless population.
Though Cryptome's work was not shown during StreetFest, you can check out the online version of the project where a magnify tool allows exploration of greater detail on their website here. If you or someone you know is homeless, please contact The Mission at 1-800-BOWERY-1 (1-800-269-3791).

"Quilters," which opened last night at the Lawrence, is a gem of a mini-musical, an utterly disarming sewing circle of a musical. It is like a living lithograph of spirited 19th-century American pioneer women from all over the country, joined by their common mastery of quilting.
Now, that sounds fairly prosaic, but I can assure you that when, at the finish, an enormous quilt is raised aloft behind these women standing on a bare raked wooden stage, the effect is more joyous than the first-act "finished painting" finale in "Sunday in the Park with George."
This show, derived from a book of reminiscences by women with long memories, has been put together with such artful simplicity by a sure hand belonging mainly to Barbara Damashek, who is responsible for the songs, the staging, and (in collaboration with Molly Newman) the book, that one can only marvel at the results.
Designed, costumed and lighted with an emphasis on earth tones, it is performed by seven splendid women, the matronly Lenka Peterson and six versatile young charges, along with an adroit and folksy sounding quintet that emerges fully from the wings to start the second half with an understated square-dance romp.
No single scene is labored as these lovely performers experience the hardships of life on the prairie or plains, childbirth, twisters, courtship, spinsterhood, fire and other aspects of their lives that find their way, like threads, into the patterns of their quilts. And the quilts, like their children, are not merely testaments to their being, they are the means of keeping warm as stiff winds penetrate the log cabins and force them to huddle together beneath these coverings beautifully designed from sewn together remnants.
So, blessings on you Evalyn Baron, Marjorie Berman, Alma Cuervo, Lynn Lobban, Rosemary McNamara, Jennifer Parsons, Lenka Peterson and the men and women of the band. With th help of Barbara Damashek, you have created an exquisite musical quilt to simple melodies, simple words, and (but for two of the instrumentalists) without the aid of men. We hear of husbands and lovers, and "see" them once or twice when a performer dons a cowboy hat and utters a few husky lines, but "Quilters" is a veneration of womanhood by its very nature, for to adapt a recent catch phrase to bygone times, real men don't (or didn't) sew quilts.
Quilters is a show pieced together with love and stitched with pride. Just like the work of American folk art that inspired it, this new dramatic musical by Molly Newman and Barbara Damashek (playing at the Jack Lawrence Theater, 359 W. 48th St.) is a thing of beauty, comfort and joy. Go - wrap yourself up in it.
These songs, stories and biographies of American quilters and their craft were gathered by the authors from many sources, including the classic study, "The Quilters: Women and Domestic Art."
Artfully arranged here for the stage by Barbara Damashek (who also wrote the delicate score), this wealth of material folds itself into graceful patterns that summarize the collective experience of the pioneer women who stitched their lives into every intricate design.
There are 20 movements, or pieces, in Quilters and each follows a quilting pattern.
"Rocky Road" serves as the theme for the early famililes who crossed the country to settle the West.
"Windmill" tells of the resourceful settlers who made water flow in the desert.
"Shadow Blocks" speaks eloquently about the pain of bearing children.
Each chapter in these moving oral histories is announced by the ritual unfolding of a quilt - a spectacular collection designed by Ursula Belden from traditional patterns - which is then used the way women actually used quilts in those days: to celebrate happy occasions as gifts, to protect the family from dust storms and tornadoes, to beat out fires, to bandage the wounded, to shroud the dead.
Even under Allen Lee Hughes' softly textured lighting, the quilts have a stark, somber beauty, rarely broken by patches of joyful color.
Seven actresses and five musicians work with concentrated care to preserve the seamlessness of the material in production.
With Lenka Peterson at the center of each thematic pattern, as matriarch who teaches generations of daughters how to stitch the family history, the company sings in tight harmony, moves in unbroken unity.
Using story-theater performance technique - hoop-frames become Conastoga wagons, folded quilts are opened and read like books, actors' arms churn the air as windmill blades - the ensemble becomes as self-sufficient as the women whose histories they relate.
Like the quilts themselves, all these patterns are important; beautiful as well as functional, they tell our history - and they tell how women made it.
''Quilters,'' the first Broadway production of the new season, is billed as a ''musical,'' but it might better serve as a diorama at the Cooper-Hewitt Museum. Adapted from a slender book of oral history by Patricia Cooper and Norma Bradley Allen, this show means to celebrate those hearty pioneer women who turned a domestic craft into a spirited native form of autobiographical art. The women who created ''Quilters,'' Molly Newman and Barbara Damashek, clearly know a lot about quilting and the unsung heroines who practiced it. If the entertainment at the Jack Lawrence Theater is any indication, their knowledge of theater is somewhat less acute.
Apparently proceeding from the misguided conviction that what works on cloth can work on stage, the authors have given their libretto a patchwork structure. ''Quilters'' is a static melange of skits, monologues and songs unified by a theme rather than a sustained plot or characters. The theme - the indominatability of American women - is so superficially explored that it never amounts to more than a tired slogan. The colors that should enliven it - those provided by the cast, score and dances - are generally as monochromatic as the beige backcloth that is the principal feature of Ursula Belden's set.
That backcloth represents the raw canvas for a quilt whose construction ''Quilters'' intends to dramatize. At the outset, an elderly woman, Sarah (Lenka Peterson), announces that she is about to make a ''legacy quilt'' in which each patchwork ''block'' will illustrate her ''memories, hopes, dreams and prayers.'' But it soon turns out that Sarah is less a person than a conceit - a symbolic composite of all matriarchs. The six women who help act out her memories are called ''the daughters'' - yet they prove not to be Sarah's actual progeny but an ever-changing army of cameo characters culled from the oral testaments at the authors' disposal.
Thanks to this scheme, ''Quilters'' manages to rob its raw material of its most vital elements - its specificity and authenticity. Instead of hearing the detailed individual histories of various women, we hear only tiny, fleeting scraps of those histories, generally pared down to red-letter events that are supposed to sum up the eternal heritage of Womanhood (or at least White Protestant Womanhood). Though the show contains a continuous flood of incidents - births, baptisms, adoptions, marriages, deaths, natural disasters - the figures inhabiting these tableaux vivants are so bloodlessly sketched that we don't care what's happening to whom.
The apotheosis of the show's method is the Act I finale. The women assemble for a quilting party and, in turn, deliver lengthy monologues confessing their feelings about James Earl Prentice, the man whose quilt they are making. This would be fascinating were it not for the fact that James Earl Prentice, whoever he may be, never appears in ''Quilters'' and is never otherwise mentioned. Most of the time, we don't even know exactly where or when the events are occurring - with the consequence that ''Quilters'' often seems to contain as much genuine historical grit as ''Little House on the Prairie.''
There is, however, no shortage of nostalgic trimmings: biblical homilies, arcane folklore and homespun humor. (''We were all so tired, we slept like logs,'' says the occupant of a newly built log cabin.) As director, Miss Damashek relies heavily on mimed sequences, folk dance formations and choral speaking - all of which suggest how once-inventive Story Theater techniques may have been trampled into cliches in the regional theaters where ''Quilters'' has previously prospered. Miss Damashek's songs, played by on-stage musicians in quaint hoedown garb, are shreds of ersatz folk music accompanied by lyrics such as, ''Oh the green, green, green of the rolling green lawns.'' Though the evening's synthetic, candied brand of Americana may not carry anyone back to the lone prairie, it does arouse memories of the more aggressive gift shops in Colonial Williamsburg.
Like its similarly intentioned Broadway predecessor, ''Foxfire,'' ''Quilters'' might be slightly less tedious if Jessica Tandy were at hand. In the would-be Tandy role, the usually capable Miss Peterson is a strangely humorless, even dour, matriarch. Most of the ''daughters'' are at best sincere - and some of them, notably Evalyn Baron, have accents that suggest Manhattan's idea of the boondocks. The best voices and spunkiest personalities belong to Alma Cuervo and, especially, Rosemary McNamara.
Allen Lee Hughes's lighting is, as always, exquisite. But the evening's biggest visual thrill occurs at the end, when the finished quilt, designed by Miss Belden, at last unfurls. It's so glorious a tapestry that one can momentarily forget that the rest of ''Quilters'' is threadbare.

Dr. Janet M. Neigel's Ratings
I had blepharoplasty surgery last year by Dr. Neigel and I'm so thrilled with the results. I think Dr. Neigel is a wonderful plastic surgeon and would tell anyone wanting to have any kind of ocular surgery to go to her and no where else. She is truly amazing, and I am a very critical person so coming from me this is really a tremendous compliment.

This doctor's office is not a good place. They just want to take as much money as possible from the patient. They ignored patients' billing question as long as possible. Please try to avoid this doctor and her office staff if you have another choice since I believe that they are really greedy.

Dr. Neigel is a HORRIBLE injector of fillers and botox. She gave me botox in my forehead and botoxed my scalp and nose and the ends of my eyebrows, leaving me with turned down eyebrows and saggy lids. I look horrible, it's the worst botox I've ever gotten. She did the same to my friend and her sister, both got saggy eyes from her. When I went back to complain she refused to fix me, and the same thing happened to my friends. I should add that I went to her bc she claimed that she did "botox for migraines" and so I switched from my neurologist to her. She had NO CLUE where to inject the botox and made it up as she went along. I switched back to my neurologist but not after having 3 months of saggy eyes and migraines. Plus, she didn't inject as much botox as my neurologist prescribed & so kept the botox for herself. She is the worst WORST "plastic surgeon" around. She is unfriendly and refuses to fix mistakes. She has no idea how to inject botox and will make you look like a fool.

Dr Neigel is amazing! I had an SLift by her after being referred by a friend, and my results are nothing short of miraculous! She has turned the clock back for me! I could not be happier. Her staff is friendly and compassionate. I recommend this doctor 100%

Dr. Neigel assured me that my "simple" procedue would yield "home run" results. As I returned for my follow up appointments, and expressed my concerns that I looked the same, I was put off until the next appointment when things would "settle". 1 year post-op, I had to wait over an hour to be seen. I later saw why- my before and after pictures looked the EXACT same. She agreed, then I was told my bone structure was different and I would need a different procedure in order to get the results I was promised. Expressed my disastisfaction, was offered nothing in return. The office also billed my insurance for the OR costs after I paid cash out of pocket. The only thing I was happy with was the limited scarring, but I now have scars and nothing else that is changed.

Think Energy-efficient Homes are not affordable. Think again.
Simmons Homes, metro Tulsa, Oklahoma's largest home builder, builds affordable, energy efficient homes from $138,000 to more than $275,000 in Owasso, Bixby, Broken Arrow, Collinsville, Glenpool, and Jenks. Though known for its affordable homes that have HERS Indices ranging from 60 to 72, the company built a 2,300-square-foot, four-bedroom, three-bathroom home for Oklahoma's Make a Wish Foundation that raised a record half million dollars August 7, in Broken Arrow, OK.
The high auction bid for the home located in The Villas of Spring Creek neighborhood was matched by a generous donation from a long-time Make-A-Wish supporter, resulting in the largest single donation of the year for the charity organization.
Founded in 1994 by Greg Simmons, the company's homes are not only affordable but also HERS-rated. The company web site reads, "Energy savings and the associated cost savings are on every homebuyer's mind. Simmons Homes achieves significant energy savings through established, reliable building technologies and by working closely with respected Home Energy Raters to select from a number of energy efficient features when planning and building homes."
Features that get the homes HERS rating ranging from 60 to 72, depending on the house, include insulation in floors, walls, and attics; high-performance windows with protective coatings; tight construction and ducts; efficient HVAC, lighting and appliances. (Read this article about how the HERS Index affects home values.)

On Monday February 27th, 2012, WikiLeaks began publishing The Global Intelligence Files, over five million e-mails from the Texas headquartered "global intelligence" company Stratfor. The e-mails date between July 2004 and late December 2011. They reveal the inner workings of a company that fronts as an intelligence publisher, but provides confidential intelligence services to large corporations, such as Bhopal's Dow Chemical Co., Lockheed Martin, Northrop Grumman, Raytheon and government agencies, including the US Department of Homeland Security, the US Marines and the US Defence Intelligence Agency. The emails show Stratfor's web of informers, pay-off structure, payment laundering techniques and psychological methods.

El Paso selected as one of six sites nationwide to participate in radiological incident preparedness exerciseBy: Jamel ValenciaEL PASO, Texas - Local school districts and other educational institutions will be part of the nations first exercise that will prepare them on what to do in case a radiological incident happens in El Paso. The use of radiation has increased in the 21st century and the potential for a national radiological incident that requires a public health response has also increased, said Armando Saldivar with the El Paso Health Department. On Thursday, the city will hold an exercise to teach area representatives how to respond to a radiological incident, said Saldivar. The following representatives will participate: Clint, Socorro, and El Paso Independent School Districts, EPCC, and UTEP as well as the City/County Office of Emergency Management, Texas Division of Emergency Management-Texas Homeland Security, El Paso County Sheriffs Office, Border RAC (Regional Advisory Council), American Red Cross, El Paso Police Department-Homeland Security Unit, El Paso Fire Department, and the City of El Paso Department of Public Health.Saldivar said El Paso is one of the six sites representative of geographic, demographic and cultural diversity that the National Association of County and City Health Officials selected. Bend, OR; Indianapolis, IN; New Orleans, LA; New York City, NY; Salt Lake City, UT were also chosen."As we saw with the incident in Fukushima, responding to and recovering from a radiological emergency is a time- and resource-intensive process that necessitates the involvement of all community partners. When disaster strikes and communities are prepared, lives are saved," said NACCHO Executive Director Robert M. Pestronk. Information about emergency preparedness, including radiation, can be found at www.nacchopreparedness.org.

I must admit that Matt Hoyle's latest portfolio caught my attention because of its title, 'Yesterday in America.' Nostalgic, poignant and utterly direct, it makes me look at each photo with a sense of loss that would have otherwise been absent had I not read it first.
Based around eccentric senior citizens just living life, 'Yesterday in America' is both gritty and stylized. An excellent American photographer, Hoyle captures the mood and moment perfectly.

Just thought I would share this. I received my 1.5" Oyamas today (good Ebay vendor), and per suggestions, I re-potted my minis, adding some perlite. (The perlite seemed kinda big, so I put it in a small nut grinder and tried to make it smaller. Didn't work too great. I put it in a sieve to shake out the dust.) I've read here how some of Rob's have immature roots, and some of these did, so it's good I re-potted. Some were blooming, and they may loose that since I had to disturb their roots, but there is hope, of course. I left the trailer (Rob's Willawong) in its original cup because it seems happy now, and I guess eventually it will need to go to a 2.5" pot. 1.5" seems to small for it. The 2 white pots in the back are 2.5" Oyamas w/ semis. They are really growing. I guess I need to get the minis closer to the light. I'm still nervous to drop it too much because of the way it caused the full size and the trailer to bleach. But since the minis in their new pots are 13" away from the light now, I will have to drop it some. May think of some way to elevate them, too. Experiment. I appreciate this board. Anybody on the FB AV page? |

Pretty little babies! And don't worry about them losing their flowers; they will bloom again when they're more mature. And again. And again... :-) You might want to put your perlite in a baggie and hit it with something flat; it's pretty easy to crush. |
- Posted by maguiretrots none (My Page) on Wed, Jun 27, 12 at 17:19
That's a good idea. Cleaning the nut grinder was a pain. |
- Posted by stonesriver 6B Tennessee (email@example.com) on Thu, Jun 28, 12 at 0:32
If you use the perlite found in Big Box Stores like HD, Lowes and Wal-Mart, you don't need to crush it at all. Put it in a strainer, take it outside and run water through it. I use extra coarse perlite (no dust) for 2.5"-6" planters and the BBS perlite to wick and in the 1.5" pots-only. All of my plants that will fit, including tropicals and begonias, are in these planters in 2:1 perlite:MetroMix 366 (you can also use one of the heavy grades of Fafard). I use 1/4 strength Dyna Gro "Grow" formula (7-9-5) each refill. Once every six weeks or so I flush the planters until water runs clear to get rid of salt buildup. Hope this wasn't TMI. :-) Linda |

Linda, Where do you find extra coarse perlite? Linda |

Wow, this picture is ancient history. The scenery sure has changed since I took this! I got my perlite from Walmart. |

Highlighting Storage For Virtual Environments
Storage vendors are out in force at the VMware Partner Exchange, held this week in Orlando, Fla.
And with good reason. Storage is a keystone of a virtualized IT environment and the move towards cloud computing. Choosing the right storage architecture can make or break a virtualization implementation given storage's central in backing up, restoring, and migrating virtual machines and their associated data.
A solution provider's customers will not know where their virtual machines and data are located in a virtualized environment. The right storage infrastructure makes sure that does not become an issue.
What follows is a first look at a variety of ways vendors are dealing with storage in virtual environments.

I like the 'chocolates' in the corner.... Chocolates anywhere are good, huh!? I prefer the center of the first picture (of these two)... The black just seems stagnant to me. Let's see the 3rd version and I'll choose for sure. Love finishing those UFOs!!! |
Oh, wow, Sharon! What a memory quilt! I think I prefer the first picture, too. Congratulations on getting it (nearly) finished! Donna |
- Posted by luvtosharedivs (My Page) on Tue, May 1, 12 at 13:38
Wow! What a beautiful layout, and the ties' colors go together well...nothing clashes. Reminds me of a huge oval dresden platter. I actually like the center in the second photo. Not too sure why, but maybe it's the sense of seeing one solid black "tie clip" holding the center together, rather than two different colors/patterns making it look like you're gazing through a narrow window. But I'm looking forward to seeing your thrid photo too! Julie |
What would it look like if the white background filled that whole centre space???? Theresa |
Very clever! I think I like the solid center better. |

Here we go with the third option. DH likes this because he thought of it! I'm leaning toward the first picture.... I'll have Salijo come in and see what she thinks Elaine would like best. Done for the day...... SharonG/FL |
- Posted by magothyrivergirl (My Page) on Tue, May 1, 12 at 16:59
I also like #1 -- but a compromise would be to include a small section of the chocolate in the center of the 2 ties in the middle of #1. You've made a terrific quilt - you know she is going to cry! |
- Posted by geezerfolks (My Page) on Tue, May 1, 12 at 17:40
I already had that thought Marsha, it's on the floor being auditioned and we like it best. So that's the way I'll sew it tomorrow. Thanks everyone...... |
Gorgeous!!! I like the first one, very nice gift!! Rosa |
They are all very nice but #3 gets my vote. Like the contrast of having the chocolates to tie with the corners. Not as pleased with # 1 as with #2. A nice memorial and gift. |
No help from me, I love all of them. You are a great designer. |
What fun the ties are. I agree there will be many memories and she may want to put tie clips on too. I love it. |
- Posted by magothyrivergirl (My Page) on Wed, May 2, 12 at 9:29
Sharon ~ please post a pic of the quilt again when you finish it. Also - what color binding did you put on Tie a Yellow Ribbon? |
Looks great Sharon. What a wonderful keepsake. |
- Posted by geezerfolks (My Page) on Wed, May 2, 12 at 17:00
Marsha, I will for sure post a picture when it's done. I had plans to work on it today, but it didn't happen. I really did have fun with the ties, even though it took me forever to do it and was a bear to haul around. I'm going to have to weigh that thing! I just took pictures of Tie a Yellow Ribbon (For the Troops) and will post a final one of it on the initial post I made in 2010 so anyone who looks at that thread will be able to see the end result. I used a milk choc for the binding. SharonG/FL |
- Posted by geezerfolks (My Page) on Fri, May 18, 12 at 19:20
The quilt was delivered today (4.5 pounds), and she did her best not to cry, but her eyes filled up immediately. I never noticed, until today, how one end of the ties is wider than the other end, but it still looks symmetrical....almost like a tear drop....sigh. SharonG/FL |
- Posted by magothyrivergirl (My Page) on Fri, May 18, 12 at 19:36
Sharon ~ I always noticed ~ I thought it was planned! It mimics the shape of a tie - more narrow at one end. Really - it looks great! Great job! I knew she was going to cry! This is a very nice keepsake. You are a sweetie! I bet you are happy to get it done and gone! Next big project? |
- Posted by geezerfolks (My Page) on Fri, May 18, 12 at 20:03
Yes, Marsha, I'm glad it's done and gone. lol But, I know how much she loved/s him (me, too...love them both...we would have so much fun together). This is the 4th UFO completed this year and the 5th one (Brown's Chocolate Stars) just needs to be quilted, so that's next. I'm hoping to get it done this week so my niece can take it back to Michigan with her for her DH. If anyone is in the Niles area, from what I understand, it will end up at Brown's Funeral Home. SharonG/FL |
I think it is a wonderful quilt filled with memories. I am so glad you shared it with us. It turned out beautiful. Now on to more. I looked at some in your album while in FB. What a marvelous collection. You can be proud. |
Sharon, what a thoughtful and creative quilt. I'm sure it will be treasured. Lois |
It looks beautiful! But which one is you? |
- Posted by geezerfolks (My Page) on Fri, May 18, 12 at 21:59
Thank you, Jayne, This is the 5th year I've been keeping them in photobucket. Then came Facebook.... @:) Thank you, Lois. She said she plans to 'showcase' it on the back of her couch, but nobody can sit there until she takes it off. She doesn't want their head on it. Sounds like a good idea if she doesn't want it greased up. Oh Bev2009. 'Aunt' Elaine is the one who is 9 months older than me. I'm the 'young' one! lol Gray hair, pink top and have her in a headlock! LOL We were in the same class during highschool and became best friends. Then she married my uncle (who was 2 years older than me) the year after my DH and I married. We have a lot of fun memories. |
It is beautiful Sharon! I know it must have been a very emotional project. Rosa |

Love it!! Great way to celebrate a tie wearer! My dh wears a tie every day, so I might have to hide some of the special ties through the years to make him something like this. I think it's a great way to save them with them being stuck away in a box or drawer. Robbi |
Thanks for showing us the finished product. It turned out great and you know she'll treasure it. Kate |

The angry men left behind in a divorce
I want to thank all of the men who trusted me in their "brokenness." At no other time did they voice such weakness; at no other time was my perception of their strength so real. Their stories inspired this article and hopefully will go on to help others.-MJR
Women still initiate the majority of divorces in the United States. The reasons are varied, and it doesn't really matter why it happened in the mind of the man who is left. If there are kids, the silence can be deafening because when your wife leaves, the kids usually go with her. Feelings of anger and rejection can overpower men and lead to life-threatening behaviors. Many times, men do not have the network system to offer emotional support and encouragement like women do. This leaves them to vices such as alcohol, driving too fast, physical aggression, and violence. When men are upset, it takes their heart, respirations, and blood pressure longer to return to normal readings than it does for women. For most men, having their wife walk out on them is a sign of failure, and failure is unfortunately viewed as being weak. The only way a guy is taught to handle feeling weak is to get angry, which begins the cycle of anger that the man's wife left when she walked out the door.
Men feel and act much quicker than women do. When men feel alone or hurt, they are not socialized to go to other men to talk about their feelings. They are socialized to talk to women. This usually leads to them "hooking up" with another woman before they are prepared emotionally. Women view relationships with more intensity in the beginning than men do. This usually means for the guy who isn't emotionally available that, once again, he will fail and be rejected. Women are also judgmental of these men as the men often don't get close enough or vulnerable enough to be understood. If she cannot understand, she has no recourse other than to judge the present behavior.
By the time these men make it into my office, they are broken. Many times they are sleep deprived, confused, hurt, and angry. Trying to convince him at that time to cease using the vices he has been socialized or mentored to use by friends, family, and the media is almost impossible. He needs a fix, but his emotional and physical health depends on him feeling the pain and grieving it before moving on. He won't trust his ability to grieve until he has other options to help him manage it. Here are several options for men dealing with a loss of love. They can be done alone or with the guidance of a counselor or third party:
1. Begin writing down your thoughts. Writing it seems to be cathartic, whereas holding it in your head can make you more confused and angry. Get a journal and make it your mission to fill it daily or hourly.
2. Each day, make sure you talk with someone you trust. This can be a simple text or email, but communicating with someone else is important. This will help give you balance and stability at a time you feel off-kilter and rocked.
3. Pray. Pray every day. It doesn't have to be an organized prayer, just talk to your god. Talking to a minister or mentor from the church can help you feel less alone.
4. Go to the gym or walk outside each day. Movement releases endorphins, which helps improve your mood and lower your depression.
