Over the past few years, the Australian government has had a strong showing at Mining Indaba. This year was no different. As has become the Australian government trademark, African Mining Ministers were able to access the Ministers' lounge at their convenience and Australian companies were able to enjoy a tailored service through the Australia Lounge. This comes to a head through the Annual Ministers' and Ambassadors Luncheon.

You know that Creative Collections group that I started on Flickr recently, well I can't stop peeking in to see what photos have been added – I'm a girl obsessed with collections right now and creative styling in general is forever a passion. It's fun to see how others put together things that they love. Their creativity is evident as I browse the many photos in the group. If you're a collector or would simply like to sit back and observe how others arrange things, you may want to join in. And who knows, all of this inspiration just may lead you on your very own relentless pursuit of pulling together the perfect arrangement to fit your personality.
Top: elsiemarley has four shelves above her sink where she creates little vignettes like this grouping of natural things called "brown". The next photo shows a few tiny houses that she likes. Bottom: retro dresser with a great photo collection proudly display above in the home of ATLITW, vintage clothing displayed on the wall from ninainvorm.
This grouping over the bed belonging to arthur's circus is simply the best for two reasons. The composition and colors are great but beyond that, they are photos that she took herself. Love that personal touch! You can view her professional portfolio here, she's an amazing photographer.

Some of my nesting dolls, the ones to the far left I found in Paris in 1997 in a Russian gift shop. If you're wondering about the unfinished dolls they're for an upcoming project I plan to work on in February. I've always wanted to design a set of nesting dolls so I'm thinking of a few ideas for these ladies.If you look closely not all are nesting dolls, there's a little guy hiding amongst them. He like a lady with a little meat, so these girls had him at hello. Can you find him?

I'm thrilled by the response to this post about London stylist Liza Giles and cannot believe the amount of emails flooding in about this style overall. Many have challenged me to define this look into a name but that's not really my thing as I'm sure it's already been categorized by designers… But for fun, I did do some research and now I know what I'd like to call this style when I write about it in the future: Boho Modern.
Let's see… We have mid century modern, Hollywood regency, modern, minimalist, retro, but what do we call this one? Not vintage modern, that makes me think of Thomas O'Brien and I don't think his look fits this one since he's more traditional, clean cut and uses lots of beige and blue. Certainly my friend with her Crack House Chic comment was off base, that raised a few eyebrows and made most of us laugh and cringe simultaneously, and CHC is not even close to what this style should be termed. All things considered, let's give this look the term Boho Modern. As in Bohemian. How does this sound? It's a little old with new, less rules with more play.
I did a little research to see if Boho Modern really works. Wikipedia describes Bohemian, "In modern usage, the term bohemian no longer refers to the Roma but can describe any person who lives an unconventional artistic life, where self-expression is their highest value; art (acting, poetry, writing, singing, dancing, painting, etc.) is a serious, if not central, part of their life." Okay good. That sounds about right.
I researched fashion, too. Boho Chic already describes a style of fashion (think Anthropologie, Noa Noa, Odd Molly), and some stylists call it Modern Boho as well. So you can go with Boho Chic or Boho Modern, too. In the land of interiors, I've noticed this style referred to as Flea Market Style, Global Decor, Shabby, and Ethnic Chic, Midwest Modern, Modern Euro Country, and though they fit to a degree, I think Boho Modern works best. Flea Market Style is a close runner up, but because it's more about self expression and less about where items are sourced – lots of us don't have access to good fleas, so we shop on eBay or second hand stores – or we pick up new things at Ikea and paint them to give them a little age appeal, I don't know if Flea Market Style is what I would call this. But I get the point because the rooms end up looking a little bit like everything was found at a flea.
When it comes to Flea Market Style, that can come mean something different for everyone as it's all about where you live. In my part of the country, most markets do not carry any of these gorgeous things. If you pulled together a room using things from MY local flea market here in New Hampshire, you'd have a room filled with discarded dollar store ceramics, shot guns, pocket knives, beat up action figures, and dirty movies. If you shopped a flea in San Francisco or London, you may have a different 'vision' when you think of Flea Market Style.
Suggested reading: New Decor by Elizabeth Wilhide is a lovely book embracing this very style, I suggest picking it up, it's brilliant. I reviewed it here in case you're interested. Creating Vintage Style and Flea Market Style by Emily Chalmers is another that I . (Has anyone ever visited Caravan, her London shop?).
Boho Modern is: Mixing old with new. Building your space over time. Taking formerly functional items and transforming them into either purely aesthetic pieces – a collection of vintage keyholes or door knobs mounted to a single wall, or using functional items in fun new ways – a vintage umbrella stand becomes a place to store rolls of wrapping paper or vintage sheets transformed into a duvet, for instance.
Boho Modern feminine with an edge. It's deeply personal. Mixing periods and ethnic styles is highly encouraged (i.e. Indian prints mixed with Aboriginal). Color can be subdued, rich, bold, or barely there. It can be neat with few objects or items arranged in collections, or a bit disheveled. Traditional design "rules" are thrown out the window, replaced by a casual beauty that comes from the heart. It's all about textures and details. It's about living a more creative life and decorating from the heart. Eclectic living.
Looking for some inspiration from "real" homes? Visit these homes from a few decor8 readers living the Boho Modern life: AB Chao, Jasna Janekovic in Germany, Victoria in San Francisco, Yvonne in the Netherlands, and my friend YIPPIEYEAH in Hannover.

Since this post, our Creative Collections flickr group has grown to include some of you eager to show and tell. Here are some recent photos from the group that inspired me, each so very different from the next but all are quite well arranged and interesting I think. Check out these creative ideas…
A collection of art over the sofa in the home of flickr member ATLITW. She has a great collection of necklaces on display, too. It's smart to create a focal point out of items you actually use, don't you think?
Pretty things from Amsterdam artist, Rinske Dekker, also known on Flickr as Apple Blossom Girl. From plants to precious antiques, her arrangements make you pause and think, maybe if you were visiting Rinske you would like to ask her questions about these items? I know I would. And this is precisely why I love unique arrangements of things, maybe you can call them offbeat collections, but they stimulate the best conversations. When you wear an interesting necklace or a pin on your jacket, don't you get a few curious passerbys wanting to know more about this piece? Same goes at home. Your guests will appreciate that you've opened up your heart to them by showing things that are uniquely you. I prefer rotating "living" displays in the home because they are very present tense. They speak loudly about who you are today, what inspires you and brings you joy. Try pulling together a little collection and see what happens.
Ready for this collection? Very unique and eco-friendly. Abbey, the New York blogger behind Aesthetic Outburst and esty store owner of How Now Design, collects all sorts of delightful, some may call them odd, objects. Here you can see a collection of bread bag tags beneath a glass cloche. Clever. And cloches are still hot by the way, so give one a try.
More from Abbey over at How Now Design. This time, bundt pans in the kitchen. Abbey mentions that she still needs 1 more bundt to complete this wall. Any leads for her on something cute and unique? Here's a vintage metal pan from Germany, but I tend to think she could use another brightly colored one.
Abbey collects vintage birdies along with bundt pans and bread tags. Isn't this lady someone you'd love to know? Her collections reveal her playful side, the ability to really enjoy living in a space and decorating it according to exactly who you are. Isn't that what we're all after, and what makes our homes so wonderful? Enjoying our abode and allowing them to reflect who we are is far more interesting than copying some trend or catalog.
Amy Gross ( amyla174 on flickr) is a mixed media artist (etsy store here) and has lots of interesting collections around her home. Here are some doll heads she collects. Doll heads are right up there with clowns for me, they absolutely creep me out, so I give anyone a high five who can sleep beneath a shelf of little heads. But I appreciate her collection and still think Amy is one cool girl. It would be fun to walk through her home and ask her about all the things she loves there. I bet even these heads have a story, huh?
More collections from Amy Gross, this time, pottery arranged on a pretty shelf. No heads here, just some natural beauty this time.
Nina van de Goor is a flickr girl who lives in the Netherlands, she collects vintage modern ceramics. I like the fishy bowl in the bottom left corner in gray and mustard yellow. Nice colors and the pattern would be fun for serving something from the sea.
More on collections, how to get started, and some inspiring displays can be found here.

I'm excited to talk about collections today for a simple reason – they're everywhere! Most of my friends and the design shops that I visited over the weekend down in Boston are moving far away from the "less is more" decor and embracing the pack rat within, but in a more organized fashion – through gorgeous groupings – and I love seeing it.
Decorating that bends the rules and reaches deep into the soul, pulling out your story, dreams, and emotions, and placing objects that reflect these things in your space is empowering. I love being around things that make me feel positive and motivated, and sometimes certain objects do this for me. Combining like items, or objects that relate to one another somehow, create order. This is something we all strive to attain – a sense of order and balance while showcasing parts of our unique personality. Most neat freaks and minimalists disregard scattered objects as useless clutter or little piles of chaos, opting for a more streamlined design. They claim there's no time to clean around tons of tiny things piled all over. And I see the point. But life in a perfect model home isn't for me either, so I'd rather hire someone to clean my collections for me or do what I currently do – block out time on a Saturday afternoon to clean my home. But I agree that rooms can appear chaotic and be a nightmare to clean when objects are bursting from every surface.
That's why I'm a big fan of collections – placing things together instead of scattered randomly all over. Collections work best for a variety of personality types and design styles – from those who favor streamlined interiors to others who embrace a cozy lived-in decor. Why? Because all can achieve harmony and order by placing a careful collection, or two, or ten, in various places in the home depending on how much you'd like to show.
This is a collection of embroidered works that Esther from Mokka bags pulled together to form a gorgeous rug. Do you see something interesting here? A collection doesn't need to be something sitting idle on a shelf – it can be a grouping of things you love put to good use!
This is an usual way to display a collection – on the floor! I loved it the second I read about this rug on the Style Files today.
For some, if you like very little on display, a collection to you may mean three 3 items on a single floating shelf over a sofa. And that's it. For others, a collection gives them them the chance to fill every shelf with something exciting to gaze upon. I'll leave how far you go with the amount of collections up to you — ultimately it's your home and my preferences here aren't important. But I can point you to some good tips that I've used to make those collections do what you've intended for them – to showcase objects in a creative way that is visually interesting.
Collections add dimension to a room in ways both seen and unseen. Pattern, color, or texture are introduced to let you know about the person living there. These curiosities add warmth, make guests feel at home, and give the space character – yours! On an otherwise boring white bookcase flanking a fireplace, group a special collection to add pattern there, for instance, instead of filling it with books that you never read simply because you reason that bookcases need to be filled with books, right? Ha! No way!
Lorena Siminovich, a talented artist from San Francisco, shows us the importance of a balanced collection using her bookcases. She knows when "enough is enough" and she's got a great handle on symmetry – because her bookcases flank her fireplace, Lorena needed to balance each one so they relate to one another, have the right amount of "stuff" on each or else one side would look heavier than the other, and all this while still being creative and showcasing the things she loves without things appearing textbook perfect.
Lorena's results are beautiful while still maintaining her authentic style.
How do I get started on a collection, you ask? Easy. Look for themes already in your home in the many objects you already have. You may see milk glass in random spots, maybe in your bathroom, a few items in your kitchen, and a beautiful piece displayed on your credenza. Would you like to create a collection displaying all of these arranged together? No? Okay, let's leave the milk glass alone and look at other repeat objects in your home. Are those prints from Etsy I see stacked in a small pile on your dresser? Hmm… Perhaps you can start there.
Here's a practical solution to showing off your growing collection of art. Purchase a few picture ledges, mount two (one directly over the other) to a free wall, and buy a series of white frames or frames that are all very similar in size and color. Take all of your prints, frame them, and arrange them on the ledge in various order to see what suits you. Step back. Admire. If you get tired of their order, move them around. If you tire of a specific print, purchase another or make something yourself using photos or a scrap of your favorite wallpaper, scrapbook paper, or fabric, and swap it out. Maybe you could include that cute drawing your baby cousin sent to you? That's personal and gives your collection a great conversation piece.
Mixed media collage artist Michelle Caplan has a rotating gallery in her home. Using a simple bench, she displays her favorites pieces of the moment.
When I think of collections done right, Lisa Congdon comes to mind. Whenever I peek in on her, I notice she enjoys artful arrangements around her San Francisco home. She seems to always have something new and she does a beautiful job pulling in all the objects that relate to a particular theme that she's working on. Here's her recent plate collection, and another of vintage photos on her wall. See what I mean?
Then you have Brooklyn designer Lena Corwin, a lady that many of us are keenly interested in because she has such a great eye for color and pattern, and she shows this through even the most "mundane" objects, things that no longer seem so everyday when she comes in contact with them.
Of course, not all objects on display are ones you can pick up and examine, as we saw early with that beautiful embroidered rug. Some are meant to be enjoyed from a few steps back, like art. In blogger Victoria's home, you see an example of an inexpensive art collection grouped over a simple white sofa accented by pillows that pick up the pattern and colors in the art.

Getting kitchen cabinets clean??
I have cherry cabinets and I can see grease/oil marks on them. Most people wouldn't notice it, but in certain light it looks noticeable to me. What can I use? I have tried Murphy's oil, guardsman, etc but they never seem to get the smudgy look off them. Mostly by the handle areas.
I just cleaned my oak cabinets. I used a product from the dollar store called Awesome Orange. Sprayed cabinets and used a damp terry cloth to wipe. Grease and oil came right off. Fantastic product.
Tks for the above product recommendations. I tried Bio Green Clean that is advertised on the radio and it did a decent job on the worst looking cabinet door. Took a bit of scrubbing though so I will try your recs for the rest of the cabinets. My last cabinets (Kitchen Maid) never left marks or they cleaned easier so I never had these smudge marks. These don't have as good of a finish on them, so I think that adds to the problem.
I JUST finished washing all the pantry, breakfast room & kitchen cabinets & woodwork, which had a lot of smudges around the handles. I used Mr. Clean Magic Eraser which does a much better job than a cleaner & washing cloth. The key to success with these erasers is to use them wet/damp - not dry.
There are generic versions of this cleaning eraser but I haven't tried them.
Here is a link that might be useful: Mr. Clean Magic Eraser
And here's a handy site for these erasers.

"An Educated Analysis, not for Politicos"
Any analysis of a hidden and complex relationship such as that between Al Quaeda and the U.S. is going to have some flaws, and no analysis is going to please everyone. What I find so praiseworthy of the Stratfor analysis is that it strives to be as astute and unbiased as possible. I am sure there are biases, but there certainly is no obvious political intention to those biases.
So, this will disappoint both diehard liberals and conservatives, who will come away unsatisfied: liberals thinking that it defends Bush's actions, conservatives thinking that it demonizes him. It does neither. Instead, it provides much food for thought in the midst of a dangerous situation in a complex world. At the least, it demonstrates that the special interests and flag-waving that characterize the political parties are just superficial issues that have little direct effect upon international politics and terrorism. Instead, the parties utilize their ability to influence votes to gain the White House (and Congress) so that they can employ their own nuance of diplomacy and strongarming.
This book has changed my entire view of Iraq. Perhaps the war was not the only way to deal with the terrorist situation, but the alternative choices were pretty lousy as well.
Unfortunately, this book does not empower the reader (listener) by providing new insight, it only helps to better understand. And it does make one realize how impotent an individual American is.

YMCA Turkey Day 5K
Event Description:
Start a new Thanksgiving tradition. Run, walk or jog. Winner in each age group gets a pumpkin pie.
|Runner Comments
|I've run this race, and I want to add my comments.
|Average Ratings as of 03/28/2015: Course: Overall
|Year: 2014
|Name: Michael
|Pros: Chip timing, fast, flat course
|Cons: T-shirts, post-race amenities
|Comments: Have done this race all four years. Race logistics are solid -- great course, excellent volunteers. Agree with Angela that the shirts this year were sub-par: thin fabric, wimpy wrist banding. However, that's a minor gripe for an excellent race overall. Thanks to the organizers and vols!
|Year: 2014
|Name: Angela Pepp
|Pros: Flat, fast, fun course. Great Family run no pressure at all. Loved it.
|Cons: Thought the shirts were a little cheap feeling, considering they are my favorite part of the runs I was a little disappointed.
|Comments: First time running this race and I loved it. Other than the weather which could not be helped I thought everything was great and well organized.
|Year: 2013
|Name: Mike Wrayno
|Pros: I thought for as many runners that are in the race it was well done. People work the course warn you of ice.Nice flat and fast course. Better than Clevelands turkey trot 5 miler over double the runners in clevelands and to windy in Cleveland.
|Cons: Should be top 3 in each age group.
|Comments: Ill do this race every thanksgiving.

If you're such a big fan then you've answered your own question. You should most likely go.
Sure, they put on a great show and you will be able to see everything on the giant video screens they put up. I make sure to go see them whenever they're in town; guys are in their 60s, don't know how much longer they'll be touring!
Exactly. I don't want to sound crass, but you should see them before they're gone forever.

Yup, especially if you liked Clockwork Angels.
My ladies brother goes to see them pretty much every year and loves it every time, they still put on a great show. I mean if you're paying several hundred for obstructed view maybe not(unless you're good at conning your way into better locations), but otherwise I'd say go for it.
My ladies brother goes to see them pretty much every year and loves it every time, they still put on a great show.
At the show I went to, I met a guy who has seen them 40-some times and says they still hold up (I've only seen them the one). Of course, someone who is a big enough fan to have seen them that many times is probably a bit biased.

Castor Oil - Castor oil is extracted from the Castor Bean Plant. It is a thick, viscous liquid with a slight distinctive smell. It acts similar to glycerin, as a humectant, drawing moisture to the skin. Castor oil contributes to thick, large bubbles in cold process soap and is used in most shampoo bar recipes. It is a good oil for superfatting.

"It's a very confusing time. … This legislation has happened before we have a medical consensus about what to tell women."
— Emily Conant, a professor of radiology at the Hospital of the University of Pennsylvania, on laws in 21 states that require doctors to tell women they have dense breast tissue, which can raise their risk for cancer and hide abnormalities. New breast-imaging technologies promise to detect more cancers in women, but can bring more false alarms as well. (The Wall Street Journal, Feb. 23, 2015)

planting uo hypertufa zone 3
ellenf2002September 27, 2010
i made tons of hypertufa containers and purchased and divided many plants to go in them(mostly semps and suculents as the troths are too shallow)
would it be a problem to plant them up now as opposed to next spring?
Chemocurl zn5b/6a Indiana(zone 5/6)
Hi ellenf2002,
I see you found the Hypertufa Forum. I think if they are going to be outside that the plants may not have enough time to settle in before the winter freeze and thaws.
You might also try asking at the link below too.
btw, if you will add your zone and location in your profile in the box provided for the garden zone, it will show on your Member Page and also automatically be shown whenever you make a post here on the Garden Forums. See I am zone 5/6 S INDIANA

Moments after the National Transitional Council (NTC) took control of the Libyan capital, IFAW's focus turned to the animals living at the Tripoli Zoo. The zoo is located in very close proximity to Gadhafi's former compound at Bab al-Aziziya which was the center of intense fighting. More than a thousand animals live in the zoo including a tiger, lions, hyenas, hippos, deer and monkeys to name a few.
First, the team tried to herd the animals back out to open water by dropping acoustic deterrents called pingers from a boat, but unfortunately this technique was unsuccessful and the pod of dolphins beached themselves despite their efforts.
The record-setting seizure comes as 27 wildlife law enforcement officials from 11 Southern African countries gather in Gaborone, Botswana this week to undergo a joint IFAW and INTERPOL training session on the prevention of illegal trade in wildlife.
The ivory shipment originated in Dar-es-Salaam and was apparently destined for Malaysia. The tusks were hidden among tins of anchovies, with the smell intended to disguise the presence of the ivory.
Responding to a request from the State of New York, IFAW is deploying two trained water rescue teams and a 36-foot rescue trailer - funded by a grant from Petfinder.com Foundation - carrying boats, dog crates, capture equipment and other supplies.
"Irene is not done with us yet. At least 30 stranded horses need our help right now and we know a large number of companion animals will also need rescue, food and shelter," said Dr. Dick Green, IFAW's Disaster Manager.
The gorilla move is being funded principally by the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW www.ifaw.org) and organized by the Dian Fossey Gorilla Fund International (Fossey Fund). "IFAW was happy to help with the move and provide a helicopter to transfer the six orphan gorillas back to their country of origin," said IFAW's ER Program Director Dr. Ian Robinson.
"Across Europe, thieves are targeting museums to steal antique rhino horns. These crimes obviously have grave implications for museum collections and visitors, as well as the Earth's rhinos, who are being slaughtered to near extinction to fuel the demand for their horns on the black market. These thefts speak to the value of products derived from wildlife and the lengths to which people will go to profit from their illicit trade.
Jointly organised by the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW – www.ifaw.org) and the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Livestock & Fishery Resources in Djibouti, the training aims to cover issues on status of species, magnitude of trade, criminal smuggling techniques, law enforcement, international trade conventions and organisations and inter-agencies cooperation that pertains to wildlife.
The elephants were killed by camel-riding poachers in the south-west region of Chad, on the border with Cameroon, between Monday 13th and Friday 17th June. The Chad army was unable to prevent the killings.
The killings bring to at least 170 the number of elephants killed for their ivory in this region of the central African country in the past 12 months. It is estimated that Chad's elephant population has decreased by about 40 per cent from 4,000 individuals in 2006 to around 2,500 in the most recent census in 2010, most commonly poached for their ivory.
The rescue, transport and release of the Grizzlies is part of a unique cooperative pilot project between the International Fund for Animal Welfare (IFAW – www.ifaw.org), the Northern Lights Wildlife Society (NLWS – www.wildlifeshetler.com) and the British Columbia Ministries of Environment, and Forests, Lands and Natural Resource Operations.
Given the large population of gray seals in this area, it is not uncommon to find stranded animals along the shore; however, these cases presented differently. In two instances, trained staff members recognized external wounds on the seals as gun shot wounds. As a result, all seal strandings are being more closely examined for evidence of human interactions, including gunshots.

It cost less than anywhere else I could find. Easy to lookup, order, and fit perfectly what more can you ask for!

I don't normally write reviews, but I'm impressed with this stator. This is the third one on my bike (they've been going every 70k or so). I was skeptical when I opened the box. The windings were a little smaller than the stock. But I also know it's the number of windings, not the wire diameter that have an impact on the output. Anyway, long story short, this stator puts out more current than either of my stock ones did, and it has a limited lifetime warrantee. All parts fit, and are of high quality, equal or better than stock. bike idles at 14V, and peaks at 15V with just a little engine rev'ing.

A single injection has recently been found to help restore the sight of those who suffer from a hereditary eye disease that can lead to blindness. The new gene therapy can potentially prevent thousands of people from vision loss in old age.

Keywords: Choroideremia, eye disease, blindness, therapy
LOS ANGELES, CA (Catholic Online) - The genetic condition, called choroideremia, is caused by a gene defect that destroys light-sensing cells in the retina at the back of the eye. The new therapy tested on two men who were previously told that they would go blind have reportedly "surpassed expectations."
There are new hopes that the therapy could be used to help the hundreds of thousands of people losing their sight through more common, age-related blindness in future.

According to initial findings, the treatment promotes an improvement for patients on the verge of losing their sight. Researchers added that it also had "huge" implications for the treatment of those with common types of blindness affecting retinal cells.
Among these conditions is age-related macular degeneration for which there is no preventative treatment, although laser surgery and drugs can help.
Saying he was "absolutely delighted" with the results so far, Professor Robert MacLaren, who led the operations at Oxford Eye Hospital, said that "It is still too early to know if the gene therapy treatment will last indefinitely, but we can say that the vision improvements have been maintained for as long as we have been following up the patients, which is two years in one case. In truth, we did not expect to see such dramatic improvements."
Part-funded by the charity Fight for Sight, the process involved six patients with different stages of choroideremia, which is caused by a defect in the gene CHM.
During the trials, only one eye treated in order to compare it with the other.
There was a marked improvement in the vision of two men whose eyesight had been seriously impaired. The other four subjects, whose vision was so far largely unaffected, basically retained the same basic level of sight.
The treatment involves a one-off injection of a harmless virus carrying a properly functioning copy of the CHM gene directly into the retina's light-sensitive cells.
The process cannot replace dead cell. MacLaren, however, believes that it can help heal "sick" cells and protect healthy cells. "If we were able to treat people early, we'd be getting the virus in before their vision is lost," he said.
It must be noted that choroideremia has one defective gene that needs replacing. Macular degeneration, a far more common condition involves a number of genes that have to be identified. Trials involving six new subjects are being carried out.
