Offensive Line Providing Little Protection
Byline: Lindsey Willhite firstname.lastname@example.com
Jay Cutler dropped back to pass 21 times in the first half Saturday night.
On five occasions, Oakland's defensive line made him taste the Soldier Field grass in the Bears' 32-17 exhibition loss.
This wasn't the work of a potentially vengeful defensive coordinator trying corner blitzes and tricking things up.
This wasn't Cutler holding the ball for an extra second to allow a Mike Martz fly pattern to take flight.
This was the Bears starting offensive line getting whipped at the basics.
"Of course, we have to play a lot better," Bears coach Lovie Smith said. "The protection, the amount of sacks a of course we can't allow that to happen."
Yet it happened from the start.
On the Bears' second play from scrimmage, 300-pound veteran defensive tackle Tommy Kelly engaged new right guard Lance Louis and tossed him aside to earn a 9-yard sack.
"I can't speak on anybody else," Louis said. "But I think I could have did a number of things better protection-wise and run block-wise."
He could have spoken for left tackle Chris Williams, too.
On the game's next snap, defensive end Kamerion Wimbley blazed past Williams' outside shoulder for an 11-yard smashing of Cutler.
That bit of back-to-back slacking inspired the first spate of boos this season, but the 52,258 fans that showed up weren't done seeing Cutler and Wimbley meet in the backfield. …

TOMMY STEVENSON: 'Alabama Gang' inspired generation of racing fans
Published: Sunday, October 2, 2005 at 3:30 a.m.
Last Modified: Saturday, October 1, 2005 at 11:52 p.m.
Last weekends story by City Editor Anna Maria Della Costa about the faded glory of Hueytown, home of what is left of NASCARs legendary Alabama Gang," brought back a lot of memories.
The Stevenson family moved into the First Methodist parsonage on High School Road in 1958, a few years before Bobby Allison and his brother Donnie resettled from the Miami area and set up shop in Hueytown.
Red Farmer, also a Miami transplant, had preceded them to the Birmingham suburb. They all moved there to be nearer the center of the thriving Southern short-track stock car racing circuit.
The superspeedways (though they were not yet called that) at Daytona, Atlanta and elsewhere were already up and running, although groundbreaking for the Talladega Superspeedway, site of todays Nextell Cup UAW-Ford 500, was at least a decade away.
The short tracks, like the grandiosely named Birmingham International Raceway at Fair Park and Dixie Speedway, the gloriously run-down quarter-mile dirt track in Midfield, were to big-time NASCAR racing what triple A and double A are to Major League Baseball.
The young Allisons and the already old-looking Farmer, who is still in the racing business after more than 57 years, were all striving to break into the big time by conquering the minor leagues.
Neil Bonnett, who died in a crash in 1994, wouldnt settle in Hueytown until after we had moved on in 1963. Bobbys sons Davey and Clifford Allison, both of whom also would die young in racing-related accidents, were mere toddlers in the early 1960s.
They say when in Rome do as the Romans do, and when I lived in Hueytown, I, well, did as the Hueytownians did, which meant following the exploits of the fledgling Alabama Gang around the South.
For what its worth, I concluded, in all my youthful insight, that Donnie was the best racer of them all, based simply on one Saturday night heat at Dixie when his brother backed off before he did on the backstretch and Donnie went on to win that particular and obscure race.
That turned out to be wrong, of course; while Donnie did eventually have some success in the big leagues, Bobby Allison became a racing legend, as did Bonnett. And the tragic boy prince Davey, who died at the age of 32 in a helicopter crash in the Talladega infield in 1993, may have been the best of them all. Clifford, who died even younger, at the age of 27 in 1992, also was on the verge of real stardom.
Red Farmer never really made it to the big leagues and is the only one still living in Hueytown. He raced at Talladega Friday night, but in the infield, on the short track.
All this death and tragedy -- Bonnett also died in a wreck and Bobby has never recovered mentally and physically from another high-speed crash -- was the poignant counterpoint in editor Anna Marias story.
But back then poignancy and tragedy were not even in our young vocabularies as we hung around the garages near what was then the Iceberg, a classic Happy Days"-style hamburger joint, which is still open but pedestrianly renamed the Hometrack Restaurant.
I, a barely teenage preachers kid, was awed and a bit secretly thrilled to observe that not only did the racers and their mechanics use jerry-built Budweiser cans as oil filters on their engines, but that that actually drank the stuff -- out in the open, in the broad daylight! -- as they lovingly repaired the previous weeks damage and tuned the cars up for the next week.
I supposed the Allisons and Farmer tolerated us hanging around the garages; I know one stern glance or shoo" from the prematurely grizzled Farmer would have been enough to send us scurrying for home. And hang around my friends and I did, for idyllic hours on end.
One time, however, we did a little bit more than that.
When no one was looking we grabbed a broken crankshaft from Red Farmers junk pile, a trophy we hastily stashed in the back of our dirt-floored garage, where we lovingly polished the heavy piece of ruined metal and passed it back and forth for admiration. In fact, looking back on it now, we probably verged on idolatry, right there down the street from my fathers church.
A few years later, while I was in college in Birmingham, I took some friends back to Hueytown to show them the old place, only to be shocked to find that the house and garage had been leveled (not an infrequent occurrence after my two brothers and I got through with a Methodist parsonage) and there were tennis courts in their place.
Needless to say, there was no sign of a broken crankshaft to be found or idolized.

This paper describes characters on the wing plumage of the mallard that indicate age and sex. A key outlines a logical order in which to check age and sex characters on wings. This method was tested and found to be more than 95 percent reliable, although it was found that considerable practice and training with known-age specimens was required to achieve this level of accuracy....The implications of this technique and the sampling procedure it permits are discussed. Wing collections could provide information on production, and, if coupled with a banding program could permit seasonal population estimates to be calculated. In addition, representative samples of wings would provide data to check the reliability of several other waterfowl surveys.Additional Publication Details

Washington is a town in the City of Sunderland in Tyne and Wear, England. Historically part of County Durham, it joined a new county in 1974 with the creation of Tyne and Wear. Washington is located geographically at an equal distance from the centres of Newcastle, Durham and Sunderland, hence it has close ties to all three cities.
Washington was designated a new town in 1964; it expanded dramatically, by the creation of new villages and the absorption of areas of Chester-le-Street, to house overspill population from surrounding cities.
At the 2011 census, the town had a population of 67,085.[1]
Early references appear in Tyne and Wear in 1096 in Old English as Wasindone. The etymological origin is disputed and there are several proposed theories for how the name "Washington" came about. Early interpretations included Wasindone (people of the hill by the stream, 1096), or Wassyngtona (settlement of Wassa's people, 1183).[2]
The origins of the name Washington are not fully known. The most supported theory (especially amongst local historians) is that Washington is derived from Anglo-Saxon Hwæsingatūn, which roughly means "estate of the descendents (family) of Hwæsa". Hwæsa (usually rendered Wassa or Wossa in modern English) is an Old English name meaning "wheat sheaf"; Swedish House of Vasa being a more famous cognate.
Due to the evolution of English grammar, modern English lacks the Germanic grammatical features that permeated Anglo-Saxon English. This adds an air of confusion for most in regards to the name Hwæsingatūn. It is essentially composed of three main (albeit grammatically altered) elements:
The combined elements (with all correct conjugations in place) therefore create the name Hwæsingatūn with a full and technical meaning of "the estate of the descendants of Hwæsa".
However, there has been no evidence found of any chieftain/land owner/farmer in the area by the name of Hwæsa, although any such records from the time would likely have been long lost by now.
Although this is by no means the definite theory of origin, most scholars and historians (especially local) agree that it is the most likely.
Another of the popular origin theories is that Washington is in fact derived from the Old English verb wascan (said wosh-an) and the noun dūn meaning "hill"; thus making the name Wascandūn, meaning "washing hill". This theory likely originates from the proximity of the river Wear to the actual Anglo-Saxon hall at the time (most likely where Washington Old Hall stands today).
This idea is not backed by linguistic evidence. Combining the two Old English words "wascan" and "dūn" would actually have meant "washed hill" and not "washing hill". Also, the Old English "dūn" meant a range of gently rolling hills, as evidenced by the naming of the North and South Downs in southern England.
William de Wessyngton was a forebear of George Washington,[3] the first President of the United States, after whom the US capital and many other places in the United States are named. Though George Washington's great-grandfather John Washington left for Virginia from Essex, Washington Old Hall was the family home of George Washington's ancestors. The present structure incorporates small parts of the medieval home in which they lived.[4] The American Independence Day is marked each year by a ceremony at Washington Old Hall.[5]
The Old Hall may have been built by William de Hertburn, who moved to the area in 1183. As was the custom, he took the name of his new estates, and became William de Wessyngton. By 1539, when the family moved to Sulgrave Manor in Northamptonshire, the spelling "Washington" had been adopted.
The present Hall is an early 17th-century small English manor house of sandstone. Only the foundations and the arches between the Kitchen and the Great Hall remain of the original house.
Washington's design was developed through the New Towns concept aiming to achieve sustainable socio-economic growth. The new town is divided into small self-sufficient "villages". It was originally also divided into the 15 numbered districts, a fate that confused many visitors to the area. These numbered districts have gradually been removed as well as increased, and now road signs indicate the villages' names instead of district number.
Washington's villages are called:
Mount Pleasant was also added to the list of numbered districts (14), despite being out of the Town "boundary line" of the River Wear and having a DH4 Postcode (Houghton le Spring); however, it does hold a Washington dialling code starting 0191 415/416/417.
Built on industry, Washington contains several industrial estates, named after famous local engineers, such as Parsons, Armstrong, Stephenson, Crowther, Pattinson, Swan and Emerson.
A lot of the land that makes up the town was purchased from the Lambton family, Earls of Durham who own the estate of the same name, which includes their ancestral home, Lambton Castle.
In 1970, Washington hosted the English Schools Athletic Association (ESAA) annual National Championships, attended by the then Lord Lieutenant of County Durham.
On 15 November 1977, the very first SavaCentre hypermarket (a venture between Sainsbury's and British Home Stores) opened at The Gallaries.[6] By 2005, however, it had been rebranded as a traditional Sainsbury's as the SavaCentre brand was phased out.[7]
Historically, Washington was heavily involved in the coal industry with a number of pits. One of these in the Albany district of Washington is preserved as the 'F' Pit Museum (pits in Washington were named alphabetically e.g. the 'F' Pit). A number of the old communities of Washington grew up around the pits (e.g. the modern area of Usworth partly grew up around the Usworth mine and the area was known as Usworth Colliery (and still is to some of the older generation). In support of the mines, there was a series of wagonways and later railway lines to transport the coal. The wagonways took coal to Staithes on the River Wear, where it could be loaded onto barges to be taken to the oceangoing vessels at Sunderland.
Washington was also involved in the chemical industry and the Washington Chemical Works was a major employer in the 19th century. This later became the Cape/Newalls Works, which produced insulation. The Pattinson Town area of Washington grew up around the chemical works. This area is now Pattinson industrial estate and Teal Farm housing estate.
Currently, Washington's main industries include textiles, electronics, car assembly, chemicals and electrical goods. The Nissan automotive plant is a major employer. Nissan is the largest private-sector employer in the City of Sunderland.
Goodyear Tire and Rubber Company, the American tyre production giant, opened a new factory in Washington in 1968. However, it closed on 5 July 2006 with the loss of 585 jobs.[1]
The Wildfowl and Wetlands Trust nature reserve and the Washington 'F' Pit mining museum are within the town. The Washington Arts Centre is a converted farm building. The Centre includes an exhibition gallery, community theatre, artist studios and a recording studio. The North East Aircraft Museum occupies part of the old RAF Usworth base. The Nissan plant takes up much of the rest. The municipal airport previously run from the site was closed to make way for the Nissan plant.
There are several primary, secondary schools and colleges in the villages of Washington.
Washington F.C. is a club based in the Northern League Division Two which is the tenth level of the English game.
In 1991, a survey by the local newspaper, The Washington Star, found that loyalties were closely divided within Washington between Newcastle United F.C. and Sunderland A.F.C.. However, the Tyneside club was most popular, by a small majority.
In 2005, Washington R.F.C was established. The club currently plays in Durham and Northumberland Division 3.
Washington is located on the mothballed Leamside Line and, until the mid-1960s, had regular passenger services to Sunderland, Teesside and Newcastle upon Tyne, via Pelaw Junction. Freight services continued until 1991 and the line is currently out of use, with all major infrastructure extant. Washington is therefore one of the largest towns in Britain without an operational railway station (see Dudley, Newcastle under Lyme and Gosport).
In June 2009, the Association of Train Operating Companies called for funding for the reopening of this station as part of a £500m scheme to open 33 stations on 14 lines closed in the Beeching Axe, including seven new parkway stations.[8]
There is a major bus station situated at The Galleries, and another at Concord in the north of Washington. The primary provider of transport (buses) in the area is Go North East, with local services as well as connections to Newcastle upon Tyne, Sunderland, and many other towns and cities in the region.
Major roads run through Washington: the A182, the A1231 and the A195 all connect to the A1(M) motorway (which acts as the western boundary of Washington proper) or its feeder, the A194. Washington Services is situated between Junctions 64 and 65 of the A1(M), and incorporate a Travelodge.

NEW YORK -- Henrik Lundqvist took a ride up to the New York Rangers' practice rink on Tuesday morning, thinking he would have that night off when the Winnipeg Jets came to town.
A bout with the flu for backup Martin Biron changed all that for New York's All-Star goalie. Instead of resting during the last game before the break, Lundqvist went out and put up the 40th shutout of his stellar NHL career.
Lundqvist made 22 saves in his surprise start, and Ryan Callahan, John Mitchell and Brad Richards provided the offense in the Rangers' 3-0 victory over the Jets on Tuesday night. Lundqvist (22-10-4) made his fifth consecutive start for the Eastern Conference-leading Rangers, his busiest stretch since he played in New York's first six games.
"Four games in a row," said Lundqvist, who was surprised when told it was actually five.
He sarcastically added that he is "pretty banged up" before giving a true assessment.
"I feel great," Lundqvist said. "When you're winning, you're more relaxed and you don't use as much energy between games.
"I had to change a little bit. In my head I was kind of relaxed. I was thinking a little bit about All-Star, I'm not going to lie. That's what you do when you don't play. You try to get away from the game."
The Rangers won their second straight, following up on an overtime victory Saturday at Boston -- the team that trails them by two points in the East. New York had alternated wins and losses the previous six games.
Facing Winnipeg, a team the Rangers had already beaten twice this season, they wanted to make sure there was no letdown before the upcoming six-day rest period.
"It just shows the maturity of the team," captain Callahan said. "We concentrated on this game. These two points are just as important as they were against Boston. We came out, played the game we wanted to."
Biron allowed only one goal in beating the Jets in New York's two previous meetings, and Lundqvist picked up where he left off -- earning his fifth shutout of the season.
Winnipeg, which lost 2-1 at Carolina on Monday, was outshot 31-22 and fell to 0-8 in the second of back-to-back games. The Jets have been outscored 33-5 in those losses.
"I can't put my finger on it," Jets captain Andrew Ladd said. "We came out with a pretty spirited effort. We were battling, did a lot of good things. It's not the easiest thing. One of the top teams in the league was sitting there waiting for us."
Callahan gave the Rangers a 1-0 lead just 4:05 in when he got to a rebound of defenseman Anton Stralman's shot and slammed it into the wide-open left side of the net for his 17th. He has three goals and two assists in his last four games.
Winnipeg didn't have much jump in the first period, when it was outshot 11-6, and rarely had control of the puck. The Jets picked up the pace in the second, landing several heavy hits, but still generated only six more shots -- none of which seriously threatened Lundqvist.
The Jets' best scoring chance came with 4:36 left when Blake Wheeler tried to jam a shot in, but was stuffed by the post as Lundqvist spread out his pads. The puck skimmed through the crease, and was nearly deflected in by Lundqvist, but he lifted his right leg just in time -- allowing the puck to slide by and out of danger.
"I almost thought that he scored," Lundqvist said. "I was lucky. I felt like I had a little extra luck. Some nights you just have the bounces on your side, I guess."
Just 2 minutes earlier, Mitchell stretched the Rangers' lead to 2-0 with his fifth of the season and third in five games. Michael Del Zotto sent a pass across the Winnipeg zone and hit Mitchell in stride in the middle of the left circle for a hard snap shot that appeared to tick goalie Ondrej Pavelec's glove on its way to the top right corner at 13:22.
Richards pushed the lead to 3-0 with 3:38 left in the game, scoring his 16th this season and first in eight games.
The low shot total was out of character for the Jets, who had outshot opponents in each of the previous five games -- averaging 32.5 per contest.
When Winnipeg put pressure on Lundqvist, he was up to the task. Less than 3 minutes into the third period, Tanner Glass had a chance from point-blank range near the right post, but Lundqvist got over and stopped the drive with his pad and covered the puck.
"They are a top team," said Winnipeg's Chris Thorburn, who fought Mike Rupp twice. "They play well defensively and they block a lot of shots. It's almost like you've got to do double the work to get the same amount of shots.
"Lundqvist made a couple of good saves, and so did Pav. Our goalie kept us in it and their goalie kept us out of it."
Game notes
The Rangers recalled G Chad Johnson from Connecticut of the AHL to back up Lundqvist. ... Jets C Evander Kane, who missed his third game because of a concussion, was placed on the injured list. Winnipeg recalled F Aaron Gagnon from St. John's of the AHL. ... The Rangers went 0 for 4 on the power play and are 3 for 42 on the advantage the past 17 games. ... Winnipeg has killed 20 of 21 power plays the past eight games.

In fact, the only moments i have discovered so far for when threads gets totally destroyed are when the concurrent bag itself gets collected (if i dont collect the concurrent bag, the Threads will stay alive), or when we create a number of other threads.
ORIGINAL (The original problem and some motivation. The sourcecode below this part explains the important aspects)
This is a replicate of a question i asked months before with regards to the ConcurrentBag ( Possible memoryleak in ConcurrentBag? ). Appareantly, the ConcurrentBag doesn't behave as it should be and now i'm worried about the stability of some running legacy code. This question comes in a response to my findings when answering the following question: How can I free-up memory used by a Parallel.Task?
The scenario hasnt changed a bit. I have a webservice which handles messages. Clients can shoot in messages using some public API. These requests will be handeled by a Thread from the .NET ThreadPool which in turn adds the message to a ConcurrentBag. Next, there are concurrent tasks consuming messages from the ConcurrentBag and handling them. there are peak hours with many messages being added and many messages being consumed and there moments when nobody is doing anything. Soo, the threadpool itself is subjected to change its amount of active threads quite extensively during the running time (desired running time is 'forever').
Now it turns out that as soon as a thread calls ConcurrentBag.Add (or any method on the ConcurrentBag). the thread is kept alive by a reference internally held in the ConcurrentBag and is only released when the concurrentBag itself is actually cleaned up by the GC. In my scenario, this will lead the a infinite amount of 'waste' threads who are not cleaned up over time since the ConcurrentBag is alive throughout the application's lifetime.
The previously given solution of simply emptying the bag doesn't help either since there is not the problem. The problem (Assumably is that ConcurrentBag doesn't call Dispose on the ThreadLocal it holds for the current Thread since there is no way for the ConcurrentBag to know when a thread is ends). (Yet it should do cleanup whenever you access the bag again).
That said, should we stop using ConcurrentBag in most cases or are there solutions i can add to work around this problem?
My test code:
Action collectAll = () =>
ConcurrentBag<object> bag = new ConcurrentBag<object>();
Thread producerThread = new Thread(new ThreadStart(delegate
// produce 1 item
bag.Add(new object());
// create a weakreference to the newly created thread so we can track its status
WeakReference trackingReference = new WeakReference(producerThread);
// start the thread and let it complete
// thread can now be set to null, after a full GC collect, we assume that the thread is gone
producerThread = null;
Console.WriteLine("Thread is still alive: " + trackingReference.IsAlive); // returns true
// consume all items from the bag and collect again, the thread should surely be disposed by now
object output;
bag.TryTake(out output);
Console.WriteLine("Thread is still alive: " + trackingReference.IsAlive); // returns true
// ok, finally remove all references to the Bag
bag = null;
Console.WriteLine("Thread is still alive: " + trackingReference.IsAlive); // returns false

the REAL problem in America
Submitted by arguablybetter on Fri, 02/10/2012 - 14:14I don't know if anyone has posted this yet. But what an INCREDIBLE essay. This really nails it.
One of the great goals of education is to initiate the young into the conversation of their ancestors; to enable them to understand the language of that conversation, in all its subtlety, and maybe even, in their maturity, to add to it some wisdom of their own.
The modern American educational system no longer teaches us the political language of our ancestors. In fact our schooling helps widen the gulf of time between our ancestors and ourselves, because much of what we are taught in the name of civics, political science, or American history is really modern liberal propaganda. Sometimes this is deliberate. Worse yet, sometimes it isn't. Our ancestral voices have come to sound alien to us, and therefore our own moral and political language is impoverished. It's as if the people of England could no longer understand Shakespeare, or Germans couldn't comprehend Mozart and Beethoven.
So to most Americans, even those who feel oppressed by what they call big government, it must sound strange to hear it said, in the past tense, that tyranny "came" to America. After all, we have a constitution, don't we? We've abolished slavery and segregation. We won two world wars and the Cold War. We still congratulate ourselves before every ballgame on being the Land of the Free. And we aren't ruled by some fanatic with a funny mustache who likes big parades with thousands of soldiers goose-stepping past huge pictures of himself.
For all that, we no longer fully have what our ancestors, who framed and ratified our Constitution, thought of as freedom — a careful division of power that prevents power from becoming concentrated and unlimited. The word they usually used for concentrated power was consolidated — a rough synonym for fascist. And the words they used for any excessive powers claimed or exercised by the state were usurped and tyrannical. They would consider the modern "liberal" state tyrannical in principle; they would see in it not the opposite of the fascist, communist, and socialist states, but their sister.
If Washington and Jefferson, Madison, and Hamilton could come back, the first thing they'd notice would be that the federal government now routinely assumes thousands of powers never assigned to it — powers never granted, never delegated, never enumerated. These were the words they used, and it's a good idea for us to learn their language. They would say that we no longer live under the Constitution they wrote. And the Americans of a much later era — the period from Cleveland to Coolidge, for example — would say we no longer live even under the Constitution they inherited and amended.
I call the present system "Post–Constitutional America." As I sometimes put it, the U.S. Constitution poses no serious threat to our form of government.

It sure does! What a great essay. I was most shocked by this line -
Justice Black dissented in the Griswold case on the following ground: "I like my privacy as well as the next [man]," he wrote, "but I am nevertheless compelled to admit that government has a right to invade it unless prohibited by some specific constitutional provision." What a hopelessly muddled — and really sinister — misconception of the relation between the individual and the state: government has a right to invade our privacy, unless prohibited by the Constitution. You don't have to share the Court's twisted view of the right of privacy in order to be shocked that one of its members takes this view of the "right" of government to invade privacy.
UNREAL! The governments Right? We need RON PAUL!!!

A blog about my knitting, my spinning, my kids and my life.(in no particular order)
Saturday, February 21
It's finished!
Monday, February 16
DIY craft table!
It all started because i finally rearranged my fiber area in the formal living room... This looks a lot better than it did but I wanted to put some sort of curtains under the table (the one in the middle under the window) so that it would hide most of my stuff...
Well as i was searching i came across a bunch of DIY craft tables that used cubicals from Target (or the like) and i totally wanted one! I even made up a little diagram of the room and cut out the furniture to see how it'd look...
I then showed Joe and convinced him that this would be awesome. Plus i already had one of the cubicals and only needed to buy one more plus the table top and a few bits of other wood...
So on Valentine's Day Joe started making it for me, I helped too of course!
and then i shoved all my stuff under and in it....
I still need to paint the wood but i'm in love with it! I love that everything is hidden, the curtains ::swoon::.... and i now have a spot to sew in and not have to clear everything out of the way in the dining room. Love it!
check out the before and after... I really should have taken a pic before the before. It was bad. trust me.
Next up, I want to make valences for the windows...
Monday, February 9
hello blog.
anywho- here's an update.
Gabe, he's 11, almost 12. Leah is 9, almost 10. Chloe just turned 8 and Truban is 5... They were celebrating the New Year, wow can it really be 2015 already?
Actually I'm all about Instagram... it's kinda like my snapshot blog so if you want to follow me over there you can! I usually post pictures daily, mainly about my crafting but my kiddos sneak in too!
My sister and I host a video podcast called The Weasley Sisters Podcast... it's a weeekly/bi-weekly thing and we talk about our knitting, spinning, crochet, weaving, sewing.... and life. It ties into the Ravelry group we play in, HPKCHC. Its a huge group where you knit for points, lots of fun.
Knitting... i'm working on a couple of sweaters. One is for my bestie Katie and the other is for a good friend Helga...
Pumpkin Ale:
I'm slowly working on some socks:
Spinning! I'm doing a challenge this year that's hosted on instagram- #spin15in15 Basically you spin 15 min a day, every day in 2015. Anyone can join at any time... all you need to do is use the hashtag when you post to IG. Here are a few spins i've done so far:
And then there's the weaving... I made a few scarves using some handspun.
Well, hopefully i'll be back, if not come find me in other places!
Saturday, July 2
Day 1: Tour de Fleece
I'm involved in....
the annual Tour de Fleece spin-along during the Tour de France. The concept is simple, They spin, we spin. A real spinning themed spin-along.
Guidelines (NOT RULES):
Spin every day the Tour rides, if possible. Saturday July 2nd through Sunday July 24th. Days of rest: Monday July 11th, Monday July 18st. (Just like the actual tour)
Spin something challenging Friday July 22nd. (The Tour's toughest mountain stage over the Col du Galibier for the second time, and finishing up on Alpe d'Huez.)
Take a button if you want one. Then we can use the button on our blogs in show of solidarity. Take it from here or grab a clean one from the flickr pool. Come join the flickr pool!
Wear yellow on Sunday July 24th to announce victory. Why not wear yellow on any day you feel particularly successful? (Yellow is the color of the race leader in the Tour - but here we are all 'race leaders')
Other colors if desired: Green (sprinter - think FAST), Polka-dot (climber - as in uphill), and white (rookie)
Today i took the kids to a park and brought along my spindle... We packed a lunch and they played for hours while i spun standing on top of a picnic table. good times :) But it was so dang hot out... the kids were red(not from sunburn, they are just like me and don't take heat well) and sweaty....
When we got home i put Trubie down for a nap and got out the kiddie pool in the back yard. They got cooled off and i brought my wheel out for some more.... spinning. This time i spun on some Corriedale/silk blend that I'm spinning at a laceweight. It will be a 2ply eventually. Well really i hope to finish it by the end of the month. I probably have about 4 more ounces to spin and then ply it all. 8 ounces total. I'm hoping for at least 800 yards... if not more.(This is the correidale a few weeks ago, i'll update with a more recent pic another day)
The kids are in bed and I'm about to start back up but my fingers are itching to pull out some other roving and try it out.... maybe tomorrow. I need to get this laceweight done...
This is the majority of my haul that i got at the Midwest Fiber and Folk Art festival.... The top left is particularly calling to me.... I've never spun a gradient dyed roving before. I have plans to make a pretty shawlette out of it...
Maybe I'll have pictures of it as singles tomorrow.... but for now i must go and SPIN!
Friday, July 1
Draco, remember the tiny puppy?! Well he's a big 97lb dog now....
here are some of the crafty things i've been up to.... knitting, spinning.... and recently i've gotten into sewing! I also have an etys shop now.... it's slow going but fun.
And here is of my handspun sock yarn.
This is a shawlette that i test crocheted for a friend....
here i am spinning at the beach!
my drop spindle.... it's my new go to project at the parks this summer.... so easy to pull this out and just spin the day away.
My handspun socks.... and some handspun that i sent to a friend.....
These are some box bags that i have up in my etys shop! http://www.etsy.com/shop/naturallyknitty
And this little guy is crocheted! I'm getting a bit better at crochet :D
Friday, February 26
::sneaks in and looks around::
Life with 4 kids has been kinda crazy... and i'm loving it. Adding a puppy to the mix was just the next step, right?! Who can let their kids grow up without a dog... That is the line that convinced Joe to go and meet the puppy... once we saw him we were hooked ;D

I recently had my first saison, and it was so good now I'm determined to make one. I listened to a Jamil podcast and he swears by ramping up the temp over the course of fermentation for belgians (specifically a saison). My question is- What is the best and cheapest way to do this (control fermentation temp up to 80F)? I've been looking at the Fermwraps, but it doesn't look like you can control their output unless you do a bunch of other stuff to monitor the beer temp and then feedback to the fermwrap. Can a fermwrap even heat a batch to 80F ( my garage is getting to the low 50's)? Anyone use heating blankets? Can you control their output? Any hazard to using one of them with a sleeping bag wrapped around it all? I'll probably also just make a lager over the next few weeks
Put it into a tub of warm water and keep changing it out when the water cools. If the water is cooled off, you could probably add some near boiling water to warm it up. That's probably the cheapest way, but certainly not the best...
Depending on the ambient temp, a run-of-the-mill heating pad from the drug store will probably be able to get you up to 80f.
Put it in a cooler filled with water and put an aquarium heater in the water surrounding the carboy. Their built in controllers have the right temp range.
Cool, I'm gonna try this out. I just hope an aquarium heater is strong enough to be able to effectively ramp up the temp over a short period of time. I think I'll do a little testing before I put this to work.
I'm an aquarium guy too. For aquarium use, you typically shoot for 2-3 watts per gallon of aquarium capacity. Any decent heater will be able to hold that temp range, plus or minus a couple of degrees. the thermostat on them might be a little off, but they do hold a pretty stable temp, since fish don't like big temp swings any more than yeast do. so really, a small 25 or 50 watt heater should be plenty.

Robert McChesney, co-founder of Free Press, calls the British report that slams News Corp. over the phone-hacking scandal a "moment of truth" for American media.

"My Favorite Things" | |
Music by | Richard Rodgers |
Lyrics by | Oscar Hammerstein II |
Published | 1959 |
Language | English |
Recorded by | Mary Martin & Patricia Neway (1959), Julie Andrews (1965), The Supremes (1965), Herb Alpert (1968), Carrie Underwood (2013), Kelly Clarkson (2013). and various others |
"My Favorite Things" is a popular show tune, originally from the 1959 Rodgers and Hammerstein musical The Sound of Music. In recent times, due to the winter-related imagery in the lyrics, it has become popular as a Christmas song.
The song was first introduced by Mary Martin and Patricia Neway in the original Broadway production and sung by Julie Andrews in the 1965 film.
In the musical, the lyrics to the song are a reference to things Maria loves, such as "Raindrops on roses and whiskers on kittens, bright copper kettles and warm woolen mittens". These are the things she selects to fill her mind with when times are bad.
The original Broadway musical places this song in the Mother Abbess's office, just before she sends Maria to serve Captain von Trapp's family as governess to his seven children. However, Ernest Lehman, the screenwriter for the film adaptation, repositioned this song so that Maria would sing it with the children during the thunderstorm scene in her bedroom, replacing "The Lonely Goatherd", which had originally been sung at this point. Many stage productions also make this change, shifting "The Lonely Goatherd" to another scene.
The first section of the melody has the distinctive property of using only the notes 1, 2, and 5 (Do, Re, and So) of the scale. Rodgers then harmonized this same section of the melody differently in different stanzas, using a series of minor triads one time and major triads the next. This song has 16 bars of D minor 7, followed by eight bars of E b minor 7 and another eight of D minor 7. Thus, it has an AABA structure.
The happy, optimistic lyrics---"Cream-colored ponies and crisp apple strudel"---are just a counterpoint and cover up an undercurrent of fear. As noted above, the song was written to be sung by a young woman scared of facing new responsibilities outside the convent. In the film script the song is repositioned, with Maria singing it to the von Trapp children during the thunderstorm; but the terror contained in the melody is still the dominant emotion.
The song ends with a borrowed line of lyric and notes from Rodgers' earlier composition with Lorenz Hart, "Glad to Be Unhappy", a standard about finding peace in the midst of unrequited love. Using the same two notes for the phrasing of "so sad" in the original song, Rodgers brings the gloom of my "Favorite Things" to a similar upbeat ending-–-"and then I don't feel so bad".
Jazz artist John Coltrane did an extended, close to fourteen-minute version in E minor on his 1961 album taken from the title of the song. It became a jazz classic and a signature for Coltrane in concert, also appearing on Newport '63 in 1963, Live at the Half Note: One Down, One Up in 1965 and Live at the Village Vanguard Again! in 1966. Coltrane's version differs significantly from the song as originally conceived, using modal patterns and being much darker and more frenzied in feel.
The wintertime imagery of the lyrics has made "My Favorite Things" a popular selection during the Christmas Holiday season. It has appeared on many Christmas albums, including:
In 2013 Diana Vickers did a cover of the song which features in an advert for One Direction's fragrance Our Moment.
Me First & The Gimme Gimmes did a cover version released on their 1989 album Are a Drag.
