I am really struggling to find clothes I really love for myself and my 9 year old daughter.
I have toyed with the idea of learning to sew for many years but have never found the initiative. Mainly because I am afraid I will invest in a machine and it will gather dust. Ad DH will say I told you so . ( like the home gym, like the keyboard,like the expensive easel, like the aviary and other hobbies I have started that I lose interest in....) But this seems much more practical.... But is it hard for a total novice to learn? I know there is some community sewing classes that occasionally pops up now and then and spotlight has classes. I have also noticed some you tube tutorials. But how long would it take for a total novice to say... Learn to make a pretty plain skirt.? What's harder, learning how to work the machine or following a pattern? Also what's a very basic, fairly cheap novice machine? Thanks for any feedback. #2 Guest_3Keiki_*Posted 02 January 2013 - 08:14 PM
I think Spotlight has a machine on sale at moment for 179, it is a brother (I think) and looks good for price.
Learning to sew.... well honestly with some instruction from say Spotlight on how to use your machine and some of the online tutes I think most people could be having a pretty skirt made up in their first weekend. It is honestly not hard, I have to head offline now but will pop back with a list of my favourite beginner patterns and tutes. #3Posted 02 January 2013 - 08:15 PM
You'd probably get the hang of using the machine within a lesson or two. Following patterns can be harder - it depends on the pattern, how good the instructions are, etc..
Start with really simple patterns and a second hand machine and go from there. Lots of people have sewing machines that they don't use - perhaps you could borrow one until you have a better idea whether you want to keep sewing or not. You would probably gain a lot of confidence from a few classes. #4Posted 02 January 2013 - 08:20 PM
it's not hard, you'd probably be best off with a few lessons to get you started....it's easier when you have someone to show you rather than trying to follow an online tutorial or book.
Once you've mastered the basics, start with some simple patterns that have not much detail and no fiddly bits or shaping, then work up from there. My best advice would be to go slow, unpick mistakes as soon as they happen, pay attention to detail, finish everything properly and press all your seams as soon as you sew them. #5Posted 02 January 2013 - 08:20 PM
If you stick with a pattern that is labelled easy you would probably be ok. Any terms you don't understand are usually explained in the tips part of the pattern.
You can also google a process and watch a you tube video. I have just started sewing after years. I don't think I had made anything since high school. It's going really well. I'm really enjoying it. I bought a new machine, a Singer Simple, for $130. It is basic and as simple as name suggests but does everything you need it to do. It is knobs and dials only, less to break and easier to use. It came with a great DVD to show you how to use it. #6Posted 02 January 2013 - 08:25 PM
No, I don't think it is. I have been sewing since I was 10. A simple gathered skirt is very easy and once you master the basics it's very simple to gradually add skills
#7Posted 02 January 2013 - 08:26 PM
It's not hard if you keep it simple and build up. Avoid commercial patterns they have very confusing instructions. Use a tutorial from the web which not only gives you the pattern but detailed sewing instructions. A circle skirt is great to start with especially if you use a length of wide elastic as the waistband

I sew a bit for my kids. But I am a total beginner I just follow free tutes and patterns on the web. Dd is 2 so she mainly gets peasant dresses, pillowcase dresses and simple skirts with elastic waists. These are all easy to sew as there is no shaping and quite loose so errors are not noticeable. DS gets basic shorts and appliqué shirts. I have also made dolls, bears and Barbie clothes.
I would love to sew for myself, but I am afraid of the shaping needed in clothing for myself and also needing to make adjustments to patterns so they fit better. I enjoy it and I love seeing the kids in something I made. I make other crafty things too, so I already have the craft interest. I use my Mum's 10 year old super cheap machine she bought to take up hems. I find it is not hard to sew, but it takes practice to do neatly and in a looking good way. Plus it must take me at least double the suggested time to make things. But practice makes perfect! #10Posted 02 January 2013 - 08:30 PM
Thanks everyone.
That machine sounds perfect belindarama. Any machine with 'simple' in its name is going to be a winner lol. I suppose I could get a machine, muck around with it and then decide if I need lessons? If I have urges to throw it out the window or am left sobbing in despair at my failures it would be a big hint to get external help. Now I might go and have a little daydream of discovering my amazing hidden talent and becoming a famous fashion designer. Aaahh that would be nice. Collette Dinnigan watch out! #11Posted 02 January 2013 - 08:36 PM
If I could just hijack your thread for a second, as I'm interested in learning to sew too....
For those of you who sew often, do you think it works out cheaper than buying clothes? I just know that material can be quite expensive, plus the machine itself, and if you factor in the time it takes too....and Kmart have pretty cheap clothing (granted, it's quite tacky and not great quality). Do you think that the cost, time and effort of sewing is worth it in the long run? #12Posted 02 January 2013 - 08:41 PM
It is cheaper to make formal wear by sewing. Not so much most every day wear these days but the benefit I find is that I can make what I like instead of relying on 'fashion'. I don't have a lot of time these days but by sewing it's long enough (I'm tall) and I can make it fit perfectly. I also use it when i need something with sleeves since they are impossible to buy these days
#13Posted 02 January 2013 - 08:46 PM
Check out your local library for some learn to sew/ beginner sewing books. They're good at explaining sewing techniques like basic stitches and zips and darts, and also how to read patterns (which marks mean "cut on a fold" and "adjust here" and so forth). Some of them also come with patterns that you can copy (I get interfacing from Spotlight or wherever and use it as pattern paper; cheap and it last well).
I have started with some baby clothes (loved "Making Baby's Clothes" borrowed from the library) and am working up the courage to tackle something for me - pj's to start with I think, so i dont' need to wear them outside the house. #14Posted 02 January 2013 - 08:48 PM
I am the opposite howdo.
I am short and i love wearing maxi dresses that are FAR to maxi for my 158 cm height. If I buy a dress for fifty dollars it takes me 30 dollars to get it adjusted. That makes me unreasonably angry lol. I was also walking around spotlight the other day and saw some gorgeous fabrics. Fabrics that you just don't see in the shops. So for me it's not the cost, more me not getting something I can not get in the shops But yes I will not try and be to ambitious. #15Posted 02 January 2013 - 08:48 PM
Not hard, just start with simple things, classes are very good, even just the basics. At sewing maching stores, you will often get free lessons when you buy your machine.
As for cheaper it depends on what you are making, but you can make them so much more individual and original. Fit perfectly and don't fall apart or loose buttons after the first wash. There are a few sewing forums around too, and lots of people ready and willing to help. #16Posted 02 January 2013 - 08:50 PM

Oh this is gorgeous tiger filly
http://tigerfilly.blogspot.com.au/2008/12/...tiness.html?m=1 I would love to make something like this one day. Out of curiosity what sort of skill level would you need for this.? I imagine it would be far from novice. What would the trickiest bit of it be? #18Posted 02 January 2013 - 09:15 PM

Sewing is as easy or as hard as you want to make it. As a beginner if you avoid buttons and zips you should be right. Plus when you buy patterns you will notice that they usually have some sort of grading system on them, to guide you as to the level of skill needed.
Skirts are incredibly easy to make without a pattern - no matter what sort, whether layer, tiered, straight, elastic waist or even a button and zip once you get a little bit of experience. Same as little girl dresses. Also trousers with an elastic waist are dead easy. You can make a pair in an hour or so once you get a little practice. I love sewing as I can design whatever I like. My kids often have stuff in mind that they like, and we design it together and then make it. My kids often sew simple stuff themselves as well. I actually do think for the most part it is cheaper than in the shops - expect for the very cheapest of shop stuff. And the stuff I make looks much better! And my kids for some reason are really fascinated with 70s style, so I tend to make a lot of flares and tunic tops for them, which they all love. You don't find stuff like that in Kmart, LOL. I also have never serviced any of my machines ever! I have a 30 year old singer, a 20 year janone and a 6 or 7 year old janone overlocker. I do oil them though - but never been serviced and all still going strong! So while a machine may cost a lot initially, I have certainly gotten plenty of use over that amount of years (and one of them was given to me, so didn't cost a thing). I also tend to make my own patterns now, so I save heaps on that. Once you have a good collection of patterns you can always adapt stuff, or you just learn to make your own. Plus you can repair stuff. So things which get holes and rips can be made to look good again with the addition of a pocket over the hole, or the rip repaired. I could go on and on about the joys of sewing. But I guess I better stop now. Anyway, maybe see if you can borrow a machine and have a go. After you have made a few things and get a bit more confident, you'll be able to judge as to whether you want to continue and buy a machine of your own. #20Posted 02 January 2013 - 11:21 PM
Start out simple and work your way up but I would definitely have a couple of lessons. If you buy from Spotlight or Lyncraft they give your freebies when you buy the machine. I think having the lessons in person is better than watching a DVD. I learnt at school for 3 years so it was pretty standard for my age group to know how to sew.
I don't think it is a cheap option these days. You can get such reasonably priced decent clothes I sometimes wonder how they sell them so cheaply. I just made Christmas outfits for a size 1,2 and 3 year old girls and Christmas shorts for 3 boys in size 2 and it cost me about $200 for materials/buttons/cotton etc. I used a 30 year old pattern I had and just altered it to suit but the kids will be able to wear these for at least 2 or 3 seasons as I left lots of seam and hem and in bought clothes you don't get this. Wish I knew how to post photos, I was so proud of them and they looked so cute. #21Posted 03 January 2013 - 12:00 AM QUOTE (Funwith3 @ 02/01/2013, 09:06 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> If I could just hijack your thread for a second, as I'm interested in learning to sew too....

Do you think that the cost, time and effort of sewing is worth it in the long run? Its cheaper for me, but mind you the cheap kmart or big w clothing i hate. I made my dd and two nieces patchwork circle skirts for Christmas, if i wanted to buy these for some not as unique, and just layers not made from squares would be $50, cost of the three i made was maybe $20 and years of scraps lol Obviously those scraps have a cost but this was already covered from when i was making to sell to buy more material. Also my sons are tall, i dont want my daughter dressed in clothes that are too old for her, and if i didnt sew my mid twenties brother would be without costumes lol Which mind you at his old job won him quite a few exxy prizes. Sewing quality clothes for adults can be beneficial too. I made my brother a pure wool long jacket to fit him, he could have bought it online for over $600, cost of material was $240, and my time was covered by a few nights babysitting, and a gorgeous pair of scissors. Sewing as a never sewn before, depends how well you can read and understand a pattern, whether you are more of a learn by being shown, or learn by reading type of person. I taught myself how to sew, yes at the start it was wear at home clothes, but that did not last long at all. Skirts are so easy to sew, try googling for skirt tutes, a circle skirt is very easy, read through a tute or two and see how you fair understanding it. My first machine i still have, no foot pedal, lots of stitches, if i bought it myself back then it would have been out of my budget so would have started on a beginner machine, but am so happy i didnt as foot pedals drive me crazy. Watch the spotlight catalogues, wait for either a decent special or vouchers. #22Posted 03 January 2013 - 01:31 PM QUOTE (**Tiger*Filly** @ 02/01/2013, 08:28 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Sewing clothes for children is much easier than sewing clothes for adults as they are generally a simpler shape and it doesn't matter so much if they don't fit perfectly. It is definitely easier to use a pattern IMO. Overall it's impossible to answer whether it's hard or not as it depends on what sort of clothes you want to sew. Sewing can be fairly simple or it can be a highly exacting skill that takes years of training. I've been sewing for 30 years and IMO it is not easy for a beginner to get a professional finish, and I won't leave the house in something I've sewn if you can tell it's home made. That is not meant to be discouraging as I love sewing, but if you are worried that you will buy a machine and not stick with it then it's better to be prepared with the notion that yes it will take practice, and you will need to start with very simple shapes, and you will probably need to have lessons. There sewing threads and blogs on EB are a good place for inspiration and there are also lots of you tube tutorials these days for just about anything your want to sew. totally agree with this. For a beginner, I would always recommend a pattern, but it doesn't have to be a commercial pattern. It just needs to have good instructions.

Do you think that the cost, time and effort of sewing is worth it in the long run? If you are planning to make clothes of similar quality to Kmart, etc, then no, it is not cheaper. If you want to make decent clothes that last for ages, yes. But probably not so ideal for kids as they grow so fast. I find it is much easier to sew for the kids. Skirts and pants are really easy for me too. I'm just starting to get into the swing of sewing tops for me - my next sewing job for me will be a dress, I suppose. I reckon ring a few sewing shops and ask if they have any second-hand sewing machines. They are likely to throw in a few sewing lessons and will be happy to answer any questions that you have afterwards. I personally wouldn't buy another machine from Spotlight or Lincraft, because half the time the staff really have no idea about the machines. It's quite frustrating. Helpful sewing books that I have on my shelf The Complete Book of Sewing The Singer Sewing Book The Sewing Book How to Use, Adapt and Design Sewing Patterns Sew a skirt for YOU! - Sew What! Skirts A-line dresses for girls - Absolutely A-Line (great for ideas, good for summer and winter and really easy to sew/adapt for the beginner sewer) Make It Perfect has a good book and loads of patterns Plus, Google and YouTube are fabulous!! I just made my kids some Christmas shirts - $4 shirt from Target, appliqued some Christmas material on the front (a swatch of fabric picked up from Spotlight for $2, heaps left over). They loved it! But agree with others that you don't sew to save yourself money from buying clothes. But if you persist with it, what you will get is good quality clothes that fits you perfectly that no-one else has. I find I buy daycare clothes for the kids, but I try make their 'better' clothes myself. It's pretty easy to change/adapt a pattern to make several outfits from the same pattern. I haven't been sewing much over the past 12 months (something I am planning to rectify shortly) but I have sewn a bit over the past couple of years. (http://www.wannabese...logspot.com.au/ - nothing fancy - mostly straight line sewing, LOL!) When you are starting out, pick patterns that explicitly say they are easy or simple. And build up some experience before you do zips and buttonholes. They are not too bad, but certainly not something you want to try on your first sewing project with no experience. have fun! #23Posted 03 January 2013 - 01:50 PM
It is easy for most but not all. Some people just dont' have the hand eye coordination or know how to wrap their head around it.
I have taught sewing classes and with some people no amount of lessons was going to work on them. I would take some lessons at a place that supplies machines. There is no point buying a machine then finding you don't have the skills/patients/whatever to do it. Then, if you find you are ok with it there are plenty of good second hand machines around. Also, all domestic/regular machines are different, have a different feel etc.. so if you are comfortable with say, the Singer that Spotlight supplies then go for a Singer for home. #24Posted 03 January 2013 - 02:10 PM QUOTE (Chocolate Addict @ 03/01/2013, 01:50 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It is easy for most but not all.

I have taught sewing classes and with some people no amount of lessons was going to work on them. this is true. One of my friends tries so hard, but she is truly useless at sewing. But she is outstanding at other things that I am woeful at. Swings, roundabouts. Also agree with PP that getting into some local/community sewing classes will probably be a good idea. Even better if they supply machines so that you can get some idea if you think you will persist with it before you buy a machine. #25Posted 03 January 2013 - 03:42 PM QUOTE (howdo @ 02/01/2013, 09:41 PM) <{POST_SNAPBACK}> It is cheaper to make formal wear by sewing.

I also like Simplicity patterns if you are going to use a pattern. I find that they are really easy to follow, unlike the random American pattern I had for a flamenco dress...now that was tricky. Start with something like pj pants, simple dresses or skirts and I think you will be fine. I also second sewing for kids first because you don't have to worry as much about the perfect fit! 1 user(s) are reading this topic0 members, 1 guests, 0 anonymous users |

Chance the Rapper Covers 'Arthur' Theme Song [VIDEO]
At the Sasquatch! Music Festival, Chance the Rapper performed a fantastic cover of the 'Arthur' theme song.
At the Sasquatch! Music Festival, Chance the Rapper performed a fantastic cover of the 'Arthur' theme song.
Kendrick Lamar (and the TDE crew), Rita Ora and Chance the Rapper are just some of the big-names scheduled to perform at the Los Angeles edition of the Made in America music festival.
Class is in session! XXL magazine unveils the lineup for its Freshman 2014 cover. This year, two R&B singers are included much to the chagrin of devoted rap heads.
Apparently, while Chance the Rapper is recuperating from the flu and tonsillitis, he had time to record a new song. The slow rap burner 'I Am Very Very Lonely' features the Chicago MC singing about just that: being lonely.
Chance the Rapper is still recuperating after falling ill on Sunday (April 20). Hours before his Coachella performance, the Chicago native canceled due to an undisclosed illness. On Tuesday (April 22), his manager posted a letter to update fans on the rapper's well-being.
Chance the Rapper has been admitted to a hospital after falling ill over the weekend. The Chicago rhymer's Coachella set scheduled for Sunday afternoon (April 20) has been canceled.
The surprises keep coming at the Coachella music festival. On Sunday (April 13), Chance the Rapper invited an unlikely guest to join him onstage -- Justin Bieber!
With so many people on Twitter these days, it has become the vehicle for us to voice our thoughts, ideas and shameless plugs -- in 140 characters, of course. And many rappers and singers have used it to air their own laundry, set the record straight or start some beef with another artist. But have you ever wondered how they first stepped into the world of Twitter?

I don't envy you as you meet this Thursday to address, among other agenda items, what to do about Dr. Pol.
You must fulfill the "obligation to take disciplinary action against licensees who have adversely affected the public's health, safety, and welfare" (1) by upholding the established standards of your state (2).
You have, in multiple episodes of the "Incredible Dr. Pol" show, inarguable violations of the Public Health Code by failure to meet established state standards. These violations are committed by a licensee who is already on probation after having been found guilty of negligence and incompetence. Said licensee has since publicly stated he feels "that his clinic made no mistakes in the case" and was misled at his hearing (3).
Said licensee has two associates, both also on probation after having been found guilty of negligence and incompetence while in his employ. One was found guilty in the same complaint (4, 5) and one in a different case (6). The second complaint also involved a case resulting in potentially avoidable death.
But while you must prosecute failure to meet minimum standards, you must not persecute. Dr. Pol is a caring, dedicated professional who has day and night answered the call to provide service to his clients and their animals for 41 years. That commands respect and requires that his dignity be guarded and his reputation upheld throughout the proceedings against him.
But proceeding against this one veterinarian will not address the reason I started the petition (7) on Change.org, calling on National Geographic to cancel the show. It will not prevent the portrayal of substandard care as acceptable. Nor will it prevent the provision of substandard care in the first place. To those ends, I ask you to consider enacting the following policies:
If on probation, a licensee
On behalf of the almost 1500 veterinarians, technicians, assistants and animal owners who signed the petition- and the hundreds of thousands of clients and animals we represent- I thank you for the attention you will give this matter when you meet tomorrow night. We look forward to your response.
Eden Myers DVM
For the benefit of those wishing to consult the background material of this situation:
(1) Michigan Board of Veterinary Medicine authority and constitution
(2) MVMA Minimum Recommended Standards for Companion Animal Veterinary Practices
(3) "The Incredible Dr Pol" Asserts Innocence Despite Board Discipline
(4) Michigan Board of Veterinary Medicine complaint and order against Dr Jan Pol
(5) Michigan Board of Veterinary Medicine complaint and order against Dr. Brenda Grettenberger
(6) Michigan Board of Veterinary Medicine complaint and order against Dr. Eric Gaw
Filing a complaint based on what you saw,on a TV show makes me question your abilities, based on this i would never let you treat any animals I own and would recommend others do the same.
Multiple vets and veterinary organizations have both contacted Dr. Pol personally and contacted NatGeo to serve as unpaid technical advisors. Dr. Pol was ordered by the Michigan Board of Veterinary Medicine, a state regulatory body, to get education and pay a fine in one case that resulted in death. They are prosecuting another case against him now.
A solution to this problem is to hold Dr. Pol accountable for upholding the standards he agreed to when he sought and accepted the privilege of a license to practice medicine in the state of Michigan. Contrary to your belief, Dr. Pol's license being revoked would not leave the state of Michigan without access to veterinary care.
There are numerous other providers in his area- all of whom are able to meet the standards of care established by Dr. Pol's own peer group.
Aseptic field operations, both emergency and routine, are done EVERY DAY on farms in Michigan. Farm animals are treated with kindness, skill and pain medication, in both emergency and routine situations , EVERY DAY on farms across Michigan,. The truly sad part is that Dr. Pol doesn't even bother to adhere to aseptic technique or provide pain relief in the clinic with pets, much less on farms.
If all that is lacking is paperwork then I think people are going on a witch hunt and using Dr. Pol as the witch.
When any doctor graduates medical school they need on the job training (internship) before they are allowed to practice alone. 30 plus years of Dr. Pol's training allows him to diagnose and treat the animals from experience rather than tbousands of dollars in medical testing that these farmers don't have to spend. I enjoy Dr. Pol's show and have never seen him do any treatment that I thought was inappropriate, harmful, dangerous or unnecessary. He treats his patients and clients with respect and does his best to give great service inside a budget that they can afford.
It sounds like to me that there are a bunch of jealous people that wish tbey had a tv series and the knowledge and experience that Dr. Pol has.
I guarentee that any of his critics would be under the same microscope and fault would be found in their practice if they had their own veteranery show.
So enjoy the show or don't watch it but get off your hi-horse and let a talented doctor and staff do a job and entertain us with their veteranary skills.
I have always heard people in glass houses should not throw rocks. Some of you won't get the meaning of the previous sentence but it means if your in veteranary practice your not perfect and your going to make mistakes. And your going to outed for your mistakes. So don't throw rocks at people because you just might get caught having the rocks thrown back at you and you will be in the spotlight for your failures.
So find a worth while cause where someone is really doing wrong and start your patitions on that.

Jenni Kayne Spring 2013 | Runway
Jenni Kayne Spring 2013
A series of colorful garments tinged with surf culture formed the bulk of Jenni Kayne's Spring 2013 collection. Kayne staged an intimate presentation and talked with editors and other guests while a team of three models posed in a selection of impeccably tailored suit separates and dresses whose colors (sunny yellow and saturated pink) echoed vivid seaside sunsets. A colorblocked dress and jacket combined deep shades of red, blue, and orange in an unexpectedly pleasant mix, while stripes of varying widths covered black and white trousers, shirts, and skirts. The designer's surfing inspiration touched other garments a little more literally: a sporty gray jacket with a drawstring waist and a midriff-baring sleeveless top, in what Kayne's show notes called an "ethnic inspired print," were perfectly primed for the beach.

Can anyone get hold of the full text of the following paper, which appears to be a further development based on what Dr. Theo reported in his presentation at the SoK workshop ?
It's a letter to the editor and from Tufts, ie. Coffin country.
"The concentration of AMI and PRO shown here to effectively inhibitmast cell secretion is approximately 10 times higher than what might be expectedfrom the maximal daily dose (eg, assuming 1 compartment model for an 80 kgsubject, the AMI maximum dose of 150 mg would yield a serum level of 6 KM). However, brain mast cells may be more susceptible to the action of AMI than thehuman cultured LAD2 leukemic mast cells."
that AMI and PRO can decrease intracellular calcium ion levels.
Just to be clear, are they saying that we would need to take 10 times the normally recommended daily dosage of Amitriptyline and /or Prochlorperazine in order to effectively inhibit the mast cell derived proinflammatory cytokines / chemokines etc. ?

This small, vintage tin once held Piper Heidsieck - Champagne Flavored Chewing Tobacco which is appropriate with the spray coming from the champagne bottle on the front. The hinged lid also reads; The Height of Good Taste. The bottom of the tine has more information about the tobacco and the packaging. It still has a portion of its 1 ½ cent tax label.
It measures about 2 15/16" square and ¼" deep and the condition is fair with good color. There is wear along the edges of the lid and off the raised portions on the top of the lid and most of the gold is worn off the sides. There is also considerable wear from the bottom. It measures about 3 1/2" by 3 1/4" by 1/4" deep. It is still an attractive example of this tin.

Prices: Tapas $9-$14, platters $22-$25, pasta $18, grills $24-$28, dessert $7, wine by the glass $7-$12
FYI Tapa, dessert and glass of wine $15 at lunch; tapa and glass of rosé $6 on Pink Fridays
WD 555 might sound like the name of a Star Wars robot, but it's actually a welcoming wine shop and bistro off the beaten track on South Beach.
Sit at a wine-barrel table in the industrial-chic warehouse space or on the shaded patio, where a garden is planted with grape vines, basil and tomatoes. The menu offers tapas, charcuterie platters and grilled meats and seafood, and wood racks hold wines from Europe, the United States, Chile, Argentina and Australia.
Chef-owner Emmanuel Pelletier grew up in Paris. His parents were from Normandy, where his grandfather made Calvados, and at 17 he went to Saint-Emilion in Bordeaux to learn how to make wine. He worked for Club Med as a food and beverage director and chef in more than 30 countries. At WD 555, he specializes in rosé wines from Provence. Like South Florida, the south of France has a warm climate where a chilled glass of bone-dry rosé is always welcome.
Rosé is made from red grapes, but freshly pressed grape juice has contact with the grape skins for only a day or two, preserving its pink color. These young, peachy-pink wines go well with WD 555 menu items such as seared scallops on celery root rémoulade with pistachios.
Crisp Chateau Maime rosé from the heart of Provence is especially good with spicy merguez sausage, tiger shrimp in saffron citrus butter and grilled Portuguese octopus. It also stands up to duck rillettes, fried halloumi cheese and Puy lentil salad with feta, artichoke, radish and orange. Thin apple tart with vanilla ice cream ends an interlude in paradise.

I will be n San Diego in early April for a meeting. It seems I am staying in the Little Italy section. What are some good restaurants -- especially Italian restaurants -- in that section of San Diego? Where else should I eat in San Diego?
Bencotto, or its little sister restaurant Monello for more casual/small bites and happy hour.

About Oconee County
Established 1875. Oconee is an American Indian word for "spring of the hills." Keowee Town, an important Cherokee settlement, was located within the county. Several Indian mounds have also been discovered at the Keowee site.Oconee County was created by the legislative act of 1875. It was included in the territory ceded by the Cherokee Indians to the State of Georgia and part of the territory established as Clarke County in 1801, out of Jackson County. The County seat for Clarke County was Watkinsville and was changed to Athens in 1871 resulting in the creation of Oconee County and the re-establishment of Watkinsville as the County seat in 1875. The name "Oconee" was taken from the Cherokee name of the river which forms the County's eastern boundary. Robert Watkins, an attorney from Augusta, is thought to be the namesake of Watkinsville.
Watkinsville's livelihood in the early nineteenth century came not only from being a courthouse town, where everyone had to come for certain life necessities such as marriages, deaths, taxes, jury duty, filing deed and public services, but it was also a hub for agricultural trade where cotton farmers and planters brought their produce. Roads from other nearby county seats like Greensboro and Madison converged here and proceeded north to Athens and Gainesville. These roads brought even more travelers and commerce to the town.
By 1849, Watkinsville hosted the courthouse and the jail, two churches, schools, taverns, stores, three groceries, one billiard room, one carpenter, one tailor, two blacksmiths, two tanyards, two wagon makers, one saddler, two shoe shops, two lawyers, one doctor, and one minister - all with a population of 240 people.
Oconee County Courthouse
The Courthouse (across from the Eagle Tavern) was built in 1802, in Watkinsville. Watkinsville was the county seat for Clarke County, which was carved out of Jackson County. The county seat is typically the largest county town, but in the case of Athens and Watkinsville, the former outgrew the latter in population. By the 1840's and 1850's there was a clamor for Athens to be the county seat, but it was not until 1875 that Clarke County was divided into Clarke and Oconee. Watkinsville became the county seat for the newly formed Oconee County.

Archive by Date | Archive by Article Title Jewel of the Sierra Competition 2009 Make plans to attend this first annual, one of a kind event on September 26, 2009 at the Lake Tahoe Community College. Entertainer of the year 2009, Namira, is hosting the competition. Suhaila Salimpour's Online Class More and more belly dance classes are starting to go online. Suhaila Salimpour's choreography to "Dark Veil" was available as an online class for under twenty dollars. Fusion Dance Styles In this day and age, everything is game. Music, art, food, clothes, and just about anything can be fused, creating a different result. Belly dance is no exception. Turkish Sensation Tarkan This sexy, Turkish singer can make you dance! The media called him the "Prince of Pop", and may I say, rightfully so. Popular Songs Rompi Rompi and Mastika After a review of Sarah Skinner's DVD, I decided to do a little research on the songs that were used in her DVD. Both are very popular, and to really find out the true meaning of Rompi Rompi and Mastika, well, everyone has their say.
Becoming a Student of Flamenco Although dancers tend to become experts in their field of dance, there are dancers who explore and learn other dances. This makes the dancer knowledgeable of other music, choreography, costume, and most of all culture. Sarah Skinner's I Love Turkish Belly Dance! Sarah Skinner is a belly dancer living in New York. This DVD was released in 2007, but I recently purchased this fantastic DVD. Isolating the Upper Body Upper body movement takes as much skill as lower body. Belly dancers have to incorporate both when dancing. It takes time and practice, so don´t give up if you still have problems.
Bellydance Superstars Performance Review On February 25, 2009, the most majestic bellydancers known to the world, visited Houston, Texas as part of their tour. It was a wonderful night filled with dazzling costumes, great music, and unforgettable choreography.
Thinking Twice because of the Economy Dancers and others in the performing arts are taking a hit because of the economic crisis. The majority of dancers are full-time employees elsewhere, so with this crunch, dancers are making some tough decisions.

Title: | Assessing informative drop-out in models for repeated binary data |
Author: | Er, Lee Shean |
Degree | Master of Science - MSc |
Program | Statistics |
Copyright Date: | 2001 |
Abstract: | Drop-outs are a common problem in longitudinal studies. In terms of statistical models for the data, there are three types of drop-out mechanisms: drop-out occurring completely at random (CRD), drop-out occurring at random (RD) and informative drop-out (ID). The drop-out mechanism is classified as CRD if the drop-out mechanism is independent of the measurements; as RD if the drop-out mechanism depends only on the observed but not the unobserved measurements, and as ID if the drop-out mechanism depends on both the observed and unobserved measurements. CRD and RD are referred to as ignorable because the drop-out mechanism can be ignored for the purpose of making inferences about the observed measurements, while ID is non-ignorable. Analyses based on an assumption of ignorable drop-out, when in reality the drop-out mechanism is non-ignorable, can lead to misleading or biased results. Likelihood-based models for continuous and categorical longitudinal data subject to non-ignorable drop-out have been developed. In this thesis, we focus on exploring likelihood-based models for binary longitudinal data subject to informative drop-out. The two modelling approaches considered are a selection model proposed by Baker (1995) and a transition model proposed by Liu et al. (1999). We apply these models to a data set from a multiple sclerosis (MS) clinical trial. The aims of the analyses are to investigate whether there is an indication of informative drop-out in this data, and to assess the sentivity of inferences concerning the treatment effects to the underlying drop-out mechanisms. We do not attempt to provide a definitive analyses of the data set, but rather to explore a variety of models which incorporate informative drop-out. |

In that country, they use Moringa to help lactation for post-partum mothers, and they call it Mullungay. So, I used it like that, 6 capsules a day minimum, and it help me produce milk for my baby. I really recommend this for helping with breastmilk. One research in Indonesia (they call this leaf : torbangun or bangun-bangun leaf), moringa aid lactation up to 600% while fenugreek less than 100%. So there, figure. People in Indonesia & the Phillipines have been using this leaf for ages. Another product that has moringa called : Go-Lacta. I wish IHerb would sell it one day.

I bought this to help my milk supply. I was on domperidone and had to wean off for health reasons and when I did my milk supply tanked. My poor baby was so hungry and I just couldn't fill him. The moringa came fast (dhl) and worked within the first day. I don't have as much milk as before, but I seem to have enough to satisfy him. I am taking 3 capsules 3 x day.

I have only been using for one week at 4-6 capsules per day. I have'nt noticed any significant changes in my health. The company assures me the Moringa they use is grown without pesticides and they are in the organic approval process.
