New Delhi: Barely ten days after the
Delhi Urban Art Commission (DUAC) raised environmental concern
about an automated multi-level underground parking in Delhi
High Court`s premises, a state level green panel has given it
in-principle approval.
Spread over 9670 square meters, the mechanised
underground six-level parking being constructed at a cost of
Rs 125 crore by Delhi High Court is expected to accommodate
1,500 cars in the court premises where about 1,000 vehicles
enter everyday causing traffic congestion in the area.
During a meeting on October 10, State Level Expert
Appraisal Committee (SEAC) while giving in-principle approval
recommended the project to the higher body, the State
Environment Impact Assessment Authority and sought details of
disaster management plan, status of an unprotected monument
within the area and project clearance from the Delhi Fire
However, interestingly, the DUAC in its meeting held on
October 1 had refused to give clearance to the project noting
that fire clearance in respect of the proposal was
pre-requisite and it was to be ensured that all fire
requirements are incorporated in it before going ahead with
the construction.
The Commission also sought a comprehensive survey plan
showing total number of existing trees, contour levels,
blueprints, extent of foundations and physical condition of
the structure of the adjacent monument.

The "Hierarchy of the Sciences" May Reflect Publication Resources, Not Methodological Rigor
Posted by SLKoole on 09 Mar 2012 at 16:05 GMT
The different rates of confirmatory publications between the different scientific disciplines may have little to do with the "hardness" of the relevant disciplines. Instead, they may reflect different levels of publication resources. The natural sciences have much greater numbers of publications than the behavioral sciences. For instance, Suls and Martin (2009) compared the numbers of journal articles in chemisty and psychology that were listed in Web of Science in 2006. There were 426 chemistry journals that together published 99,253 articles, compared to 112 psychology journals, which together published no more than 28,883 articles. Chemistry journals thus published over three times more articles than psychology journals in the same year. Importantly, psychology's restricted publication resources seem to translate into a greater selectiveness of its journals. For instance, the average rejection rate of journals of the American Psychological Association (APA), one of the largest publishers in the field, varied between 69% and 76% from 2005 to 2010 (APA Summary Reports of Journal Operations, 2005-2010). By comparison, average rejection rates in the physical sciences vary between between 20% and 50% (Aarssen et al., 2008; Zuckerman & Mertin, 1971; Schulz, 2010). Given the much smaller publication resources in the "softer" sciences, it is likely that these sciences will set higher criteria for such publications. In particular, editors and reviewers will likely demand more substantive results and greater innovativeness. Comparative studies indeed show that editors in the behavioral sciences make higher demands on innovativeness of studies than editors in the natural sciences (Madden, Easly, & Dunn, 1995). Thus, the apparent evidence for a 'hierarchy of sciences" in the article by Franelle may in fact reflect only the greater access to publication resources (journal space) in the natural sciences. rigor. The natural sciences may be wealthier than other types of sciences, but they are not necessarily more methodologically rigorous.
RE: The "Hierarchy of the Sciences" May Reflect Publication Resources, Not Methodological Rigor
dfanelli replied to SLKoole on 23 Mar 2012 at 10:51 GMT
Thank you for the interesting and constructive comments.
Differences in rejection rates (along with all possible differences in editorial practices) are surely an important factor to consider. As you point out, at least some studies did suggest that rejection rates and editorial practices differ between "hard" and "soft" disciplines.
However, I am not convinced that "shortages of resources" are a truly alternative explanation to differences in underlying hardness.
For one thing, I am not sure we have sufficient evidence to establish that the social sciences experience and actual shortage of space: as we know, the WOS database does not cover all existing journals (it might cover a smaller proportion of journals from the social than the physical sciences), and we don't know how many papers are actually submitted in different disciplines, so differences in ratios of submitted/available space are, as far as I know, just hypothesised.
As you note, a few studies do suggest higher rejection rates for the social sciences, but this evidence seems far from conclusive and, more importantly, it has in itself been linked to differences in the level of consensus between disciplines (e.g. see Hargens 1988 and Cole, Simon and Cole 1988). Evidence suggests that these differences in rejection rates are likely to be partially explained by different philosophies of error avoidance ("softer" disciplines tend to avoid any contribution of unclear importance, whereas the harder will only reject papers that are clearly flawed). But where would such philosophical differences come from, if not from intrinsic differences in the level of certainty on theories and methods?
Most important of all, equating "substantive" results with "positive" ones is a theoretical fallacy. In principle, if you "test" a hypothesis, what you are looking for are conclusive results, not positive ones. In practice, a negative result tends to be seen with suspicion when there is low confidence around methods, theories etc… In other words, when consensus is lower (i.e. when a discipline is "softer") you expect high rejection rates to create a higher positive-outcome bias.
In sum, I agree on the importance of editorial practices and rejection rates, but I don't think these count as an alternative explanation, at least given the present evidence.
Intriguingly, recent results suggest that the overall proportion of positive results has grown rapidly in many disciplines since 1990, particularly in the social sciences. This would support your point about shortage of space (Negative results are disappearing from most disciplines and countries, SCIENTOMETRICS Volume: 90 Issue: 3 Pages: 891-904 DOI: 10.1007/s11192-011-0494-7).

Has anyone had experience of using an sb28 speedlight with the 990 digital camera?
Yes, what would you like to know? I use the 990 with an SB-28 and an SB-22s quite often for studio-style product photos.BJ
BJZenfolio gallery
Hi, I don't know about jwm59uk but I desparately need your help. The SB-28 manual is such that I have to know which of seven groups (page 3) my Coolpix 990 is in, but page 3 doesn't include any of the Coolpix cameras. Can you tell me? Also, the manual (page 7) differentiates between cameras with Nikkor lenses with or without a CPU. Which of those applies to the Coolpix 990. I have put these questions to the Nikon Digital Imaging Center technical service people and they could not answer them, nor could they refer me to an appropriate other entity!?! I also put the questions to the tech at the dealer (Abes of Maine) and he referred me to the Digital Imaging Center. Great. However, he also added to my anxiety by saying that I might have to adjust the zoom on the SB-28 if I zoomed the 990 at all. I would have thought (hoped) that the camera would tell the SB-28 how much light to put out as it says on page 58 of the Coolpix 990 manual. Would certainly appreciate any help.

Carbon dioxide and its special properties Carbon exists in the form of carbon dioxide including one oxygen atom and two carbon atoms. Carbon dioxide is collected in several ways. It is found in the gas eliminated from the volcanoes, when burning organic compounds and in the process of respiration of humans or animals. Plants consume carbon dioxide during photosynthesis and they can produce carbohydrate that is a substance such as sugar or starch that includes carbon, hydrogen and oxygen. Under minus 78 degrees, carbon dioxide condenses into white crystals. Dioxide carbon is a colorless gas doing harm to humans because carbonic acid will be formed when carbon dioxide combines with mucous membrane in nose and spit. So, if you take in carbon dioxide at high volume, you will feel stinging pain in nose and throat as well as a sour taste in mouth. Carbon dioxide is also a compound used for producing acid.

Red wine, doctors recommend drinking one 6 oz serving per day to unthicken the blood and make people relax. COGO does make eatable alcohol, but does it make wine?
Sorry everyone, COGO stock is irrelevant here, I meant this stock. I was referring to BORN. BORN makes drinkable alcohol. GOGO was on my mind because I bought it a few hours ago: another Chinese stock.
BORN produces "pure" corn-based alcohol. They sell to distilleries and beverage makers who cut the alcohol into their drinks, baijiu being the most common.

Linux Foundation Takes Training Online
In March, the ever-innovating Linux Foundation announced a new program aimed at bringing the brains behind Linux together with developers-to-be in order to supply the increasing need for Linux talent. Now the program is going online, with the first two courses set to call roll by mid-month.
The original sessions of the Linux Foundation Training Program, held at the annual Collaboration Summit, took the form of in-person, hands-on training, a method that provides students an unmatched learning opportunity, but limits the number of students the program can reach. The addition of online courses takes the program to the students, complementing the continued on-site courses offered at Linux Foundation events, local training sessions in select U.S. cities, and by request, specialized training for corporate developers.
The first two courses, drawn from the selection of available on-site offerings, will be Essential Linux Device Driver Development Skills and Linux Kernel Debugging and Performance. Though information on specific instructors was not immediately available, the program's faculty includes Foundation CTO Ted Ts'o, LWN founder Jonathan Corbet, UC-Berkley's Dr. Kevin Dankwardt, LF Technical Advisory Board member Christoph Hellwig, and software engineer Jon Loeliger.
Course outlines for both Essential Linux Device Driver Development Skills and Linux Kernel Debugging and Performance are available on the foundation's website. Interested students can register for the courses though the website, or request additional information.
In addition to expanding the LF Training Program, the foundation is also expanding its individual member program, offering a number of incentives, including discounts of up to 30% on Linux Foundation events, the obligatory weekly newsletter, and one of three foundation t-shirts. Perhaps the most compelling feature, complementing last month's re-launch of Linux.com as a geek social networking paradise, is the option for individual members to claim an @linux.com email address — or, at least, forwarding address. The usual variety of partner discounts are available with the $99 membership, including everything from 20% off OSCON and 50% off SCALE to $10 off every $40 spent at ThinkGeek and, obviously the best perk of all, 15% off subscriptions to our very own Linux Journal.
Interested individual members-to-be can cough up the cash and claim their shiny new email address on the foundation's individual membership page.

Murphy's pond and garden laws.
Murphy's Pond Laws; (also some for gardening.)
---If the wind picks up, it WILL blow all lightweight stuff right into the pond.
---If you are standing or sitting nearby the pond and drop something, it WILL bounce straight into the water.
---If you flip the hose around, it WILL behead your favorite blooms.
---If you are trimming pond plants, the stems you really need to cut WILL be just exactly out of reach from land.
---If anything with water in it turns over, it WILL spill right into your shoe.
---If you temporarily move a rock, you WILL fall over it.
---If a shrub, tree or flower dies, it WILL be the middle one in a row.
These are just my Murphys. Feel free to add yours if you have some. Min
If you buy expensive fish they will become sashimi for a heron.
If children visit there will be foreign objects in the pond.
The day you host a BBQ nothing of significance will be blooming.
Waterfall and streams will find the path of least resistance, and the basement stairwell even if it is uphill.
Stalkers like me will post once in a while...thanks for all your helpful tips my ponding friends.
If you have a son, no matter how old he is (26!), he will skip stones into your pond even though you've told him that we do NOT have stones/rocks in the bottom of ours!
If you finally get rid of the pea soup algae in your pond, you will get a great case of string algae a few weeks later!
When you've topped up the water level to a satisfactory height, a rainstorm will come by during the night and raise the level that much more, potentially "drowning" your lily blossoms in the process.
When you attempt to trim that stem that is *just* within reach, you'll slip and trim the perfectly fine stem(s) around it instead.
When you've been informed the 'back button' won't work, it seems to be the only button that you can click even though you didn't really use it previously!
When you're carefully positioning a plant just at your maximum reach in the pond it will tip gently & roll down into a deeper area
Rocks delicately placed on the edge of the pond WILL fall in. (especially if it is at the deep end of the pond)
Can of fish food will be forgotten and left out in the rain.
The "beautiful" plant will become aggressive and overpower more delicate plants AND become impossible to erradicate.
Fish net will rot out and give way just when you need it most.
I'd like to add a few.
Your Favorite Tool will be the ONE that YOU can't find.
When building your pond, it WILL rain a downpour or two before you can get the liner in. maybe more than once...this one I know unhappily from experience.
You WILL have a fight or two, with your DH or significant other while building the POND!
Hi, I'm also a lurker here, but I'd like to add some.
The night before the first and only bud so far on your night-blooming water lily that you've waited all summer to bloom is going to open, the neighborhood raccoons will decide to play in your pond and manage to rip off only the bud while leaving everything else intact.
Your second night-blooming water lily bud will decide to poke its head out of the water in the middle of the worst Santa Ana winds of the year. After a few minutes of 100 degree 40 mph winds and negative 20 percent humidity, you have a nice, crispy dried flower bud.
Your cat will find your bag of fish food and tear it open in the middle of the night, leaving you with a very stuffed cat and a nice mess to clean up when you wake up.
the only way i avoided a fight with my dh was to say "go away and i'll let you know when the pond is done" and he was happy to comply. i have to admit i finally needed his help getting the huge heavy liner put in, and there were a few stress-words while doing that, but all in all it was the most peaceful project ever completed on our property. lol
another murphy: if you really want to complete a project all by yourself in secret, some little unexpected thing will give you away, like the receipt for the expensive pond liner unintentionally left on the car seat.
Ongoing Murphys- he NEVER gives up!
---if you shade your pond with a little umbrella on a very still hot day in the summer, and then go away somewhere, a wind will come up and knock the umbrella into your pond or blow it into your favorite flower bed, flattening all the blooms.
---if you prop your hose so that it waters a particular shrub, as soon as you move out of sight it will shift a little so that it waters a sidewalk or driveway.
----if you cut your liner, you will wish you had done it differently before you have time to lay your utility knife down
---- if you raise an edge of your stream liner to fix an overflow, it will be overflowing somewhere else the next morning
I wish all these posts were was all humor instead of so much grim reality! Does as much good to laugh as it does to cry --- thanx for the laughs!!
You are so right, ponderpaul. As posted above, Murphy Rules!
If you have 'designed' the perfect pond a specific size, later you will wish you had doubled the size. I do, but I shall someday build another one. Already have it in my head, just need to ask my checkbook for permission. LOL.
Okay. A new one. If you have lotsa rain and a high water table your pump box will flood and your pumps will be sitting in water. If you use quilt batting near an external pump it may (and in my case did) find its way into the pump and wind itself around the pump.
If you have a pond you will spend many hours maintaining the plants, fish, liner, pumps whatever but you will also spend many hours sitting by the pond enjoying the sound of the waterfall and the antics of your pond inhabitants including the happy dance. Patti
Oh Pat!!! : I just came outdoors only to see pond water ( & ? baby fish, etc.) running all over the lawn. Yep, I put the hose in the pond to add 'a bit of water' & just stepped away 'for a second' to pull some weeds ....!!! But it does seem 'forever' to add the water if I'm standing there watching & wasting good time ...!! ha
Good to hear I am not the only one who continues to do this ...!
A year later Murphy is STILL hanging around in my garden;
---If you quickly hide a favorite took from the little grandchildren, you will never find it again.
---If you give up and order another, you will uncover the first one when you aren't even looking for it anymore.
---If you have a pond fish, Murphy will make sure that its the one that disappears.
Is he still making trouble at your place? Min

Hi all, it's totally possible to be pregnant with negative hpt results....I tested every day since missing my period - it was only when I was 9 days late that I got a positive! I'm thrilled, good luck xxposted 01/08/2015 by nicolajmurphy
I am in the same boat as most of you my last period was November 8th took 5 home pregnancy tests all negative after being late for 2.5 weeks I went to get a blood test and came back negative but I am having on and off cramps and backache and some mild headaches and no sign of my period yet it's January 1st and I am still hopeful that I am pregnant what would you recommend on when I should retest again?posted 01/01/2015 by a BabyCenter Member
I have the same situation. I'm 41 days late and have missed 2 periods already. I tested twice and got faint positives on both HPTs, so I went to the doctor to get a blood test, came back positive. I bought another HPT and tested the next morning using FMU but also negative. I am so confused and worried. We have only been trying for 3 months, so not really in a hurry to get pregnant. I'm just worried that it's something else. My belly is so bloated and has a tingling sensation when I touch it. I have mild cramps occasionally and my bbs are sore, and seem bigger. Other symptoms are fatigue, emotional, lower back pains, and headache. Aunt flow still hasn't shown her ugly face and it's making me upset. I really want to know if I am pregnant so I can take prenatal vitamins and get a check up. My last period was 8/01 so I should be on my 10th week more or less? I didn't have any bleeding, but I remember I had clean and slippery come whenever I pee at week 4. Could I still be pregnant?posted 10/15/2014 by Lilypad143
I'm 40, 5 children that I had positive tests for before a missed period, and now I'm two weeks late, one positive urine test and 6 negative ones, ( all after the positive) I had a blood test last week which is negative and still no period. I'm being sick, and i feel pregnant. I've had no spotting some cramps and tenderness, I've another doctors appointment on Wednesday but I feel like I'm going madposted 12/08/2014 by wildingjade
Hi,Iam going through this problem right now.iam 9days late. I took three HPT's and all r negative. i went to my gyn for blood test and it is also negative..But in my first pregnancy i got Positive after 4 days of Missed Period....i dont know what is happening,,im reaaly confused...posted 12/04/2014 by dainal
I can't believe how many women are going through similar situations. I signed up just so I could comment on this. Knowing that I am not alone and that I'm not crazy is so relieving. I am 13 days late and I have taken 3 at home pregnancy tests. One 2 days after expected AF, one 6 days after expected AF and most recently one 12 days after expected AF. I have never had any children yet. My husband and I are newly married. But my cycles are like clockwork and for as long as I have been tracking (over 5 years) I have never been more than a day or two past my expected start day. My husband says he doesn't think I'm pregnant but I can't shake this feeling that I am. I am nauseous almost every day for the past 6 days, my breasts are extremely sensitive and I am feeling extreme fatigue. I see my doctor and I hope they can give me some kind of answer. I didn't think it would be this common to have that many negative results and possibly still be pregnant. But knowing thus know helps me so muchposted 12/03/2014 by wesleyerine
I'm years late posting but my last period started 10/20/14. And now it's 11/23/14 no period yet which i'm never late 5 days ago I've been having extreme fatigue peeing every 2 hours severe hunger I've taken 4 hpts all came back negative and a negative blood test uuuggghhh everyone thinks I'm crazy!posted 11/22/2014 by veronica2821
I feel a lot better reading all the post. Have been driving myself crazy all day !! I am 5 days late for my periods - test negative in HPT yesterday and negative for blood HCG today- still having cramps but no sign o my periods ...just do not know what to do...should I just wait and watch ...so stressed :(posted 11/12/2014 by sharmisthamenon
I don't have an answer but I do need some advice. I delivered my son at 21 weeks on August 15th, the doctors gave us the go ahead to start trying after two cycles. With my baby boy I got a pregnancy test almost instantly, and now I am four days late on my period with many negative hpts and one negative blood test. I have many symptoms of pregnancy but I am also afraid that this completely all in my head since we would like to get pregnant especially after our loss. Our doctor said to wait another week but that's hard to do as well, as I'm sure you all know. Any thoughts, advice or suggestions? My husband thinks I am pregnant, sometimes I feel like I am but then I also try talking myself out of it because I don't want to be that crazy lady.posted 11/07/2014 by mmarten
Im so thankful for all of these posts. Myself, my husband and both of my acupuncturists say I'm finally pregnant after 28 months of trying but all tests are negative. I had the strangest period last month (1 day spot, 2 days light/med) 4 days spot with tissue). Then a handful of symptoms over the past few weeks. Headaches, cramps, bloating, mood swings, no dip in my BBT, only 1 day EWCM, loss of appetite, and finally a tender breast (they are always troublesome)... ... 5 sticks are negative, 1 blood test is negative at 6 weeks 4 days and I feel like I'm loosing my mind. My husband says he doesn't believe the blood test. I love reading these posts, they make me hopeful. Flow is due in a few days so we'll see.posted 10/28/2014 by teamparkinson09

out and about
I can't believe quite how much my horizons seem to have expanded in the fortnight since I passed my driving test. Every day I've been able to take Bruce somewhere different for a walk.
As you can imagine, Bruce is enjoying this immensely. Each time I open the front door he goes and stands expectantly beside my van, waiting to be taken to an exciting new place.
It has been exciting for me too. Going to a shop, the post office, or even to a routine hospital appointment has felt pretty amazing just because I could simply take myself there. I have experimented with motorways and the Clyde tunnel and, this coming Saturday, I intend to take a drive down to Sanquhar to attend this interesting event, part of Glasgow University's Knitting in the Round project. With talks from Tom of Holland and Lynn Abrams, it looks like it will be a great day. If you see me, say hello.
Meanwhile, we are on the home strait with my book, which is now at the proof reading stage. It really is looking fantastic, and I confess to feeling a wee bit proud when I contemplate its imminent publication. It's a reasonably substantial collection (11 different garments) and the research that accompanies the patterns has genuinely been the most interesting and stimulating I've ever done. I loved writing the essays and conversations, and I am really pleased with the designs – both individually and as a collection. I shall shortly begin to show you more of what I've been doing. After months of virtual silence about the book it will be lovely to finally show you!
Goodbye, Dolly
I often receive requests for copies of features and articles I've published. Hard copies of individual magazines can be hard to find, and many publishers don't make back issues readily available in digital formats. So, in the spirit of open access, I've decided to "reprint" some of these pieces here, where everyone can find them. This piece, originally published in Selvedge in March 2008, is one I'm asked about quite frequently. The work of Tabitha Kyoko Moses is always thoughtful, and thought provoking and she probably remains my favourite artist working with textiles in any medium. I think it is her very particular combination of precision, beauty, and discomfort that I like so much. I was very happy that Tabitha also enjoyed my piece when it was published, and I urge you to explore more of her work on her website.
(Annies Room, the shrine under the streets of Edinburgh's Old Town)
"We have naught for death but toys" W.B. Yeats
Several hundred feet beneath the streets of Edinburgh's Old Town, a doll sits in a cold, dark room. The tattered plaid she wears is showing signs of age. Her limbs are dirty and her hair is white with dust. Gathered around her are hundreds of companions. There are Barbies and Beanie-Babies and several Raggedy-Anns. Stuffed animals jostle alongside plastic infants; painted wooden soldiers smile up at porcelain princesses. What are they, this dusty jumble of toys piled five feet high? What brought them here together? In 1992, Japanese psychic, Aiko Gibo, visited Edinburgh's re-discovered city-beneath-the-city and reportedly felt the tugging hands of a girl abandoned there to die in a plague year. Gibo comforted the restless ghost with the tartan doll, leaving her a curiously nationalist playmate. Since then, numerous visitors to what is now known as Annie's room in Mary King's Close have done the same. What are we to make of this shrine, this spontaneous doll-memorial to the ghost of a girl no-one remembers? Are we moved or repelled by Annie's room?
("Praying for Dolly" c.1900-1910)
All cultures mark the boundary between life and death with imitative rituals. Dolls are familiar figures in funerals across time. The tombs of the ancient dead are filled with effigies whose assumed purpose ranges from the talismanic to the admonitory. Children use dolls to play at death, mimicking grief and burial. Dolls, indeed, look like death. It is not just that in them we find an appropriate figure for our mourning, but, in their cold imperturbability, they seem like corpses themselves. This doll-corpse association is explored in Andrew Kötting's playful and serious project, The Wake of a DeaDad (2006). Intrigued by his reaction to his father's corpse and memory, Kötting reinvented several imitative rituals, which included inviting responses to photographs of his dad in stages of life and death; laying himself out as mock-corpse and paternal offrendas in the Mexican Day-of-the-Dead; and creating an enormous inflatable DeaDad doll with which he lived and travelled for several months.
(Andrew Kötting The Wake of a DeaDad (2006)
With a different sort of wit and tenderness, Tabitha Kyoko Moses also explores the humanity and deathliness of dolls. Over the past few years, Moses has amassed an eclectic assortment of doll-objects from charity shops and jumble sales "I wasn't interested in a particular genre of doll," she says, "or in creating a collection or a history. But suddenly I discovered I had a lot of them. It was almost as if they found me." The dolls that "found" Moses are those that are most "lost": blemished or dismembered, loved or tortured to the point of collapse. Inspired by a mummified girl she encountered during a residence at Bolton Museum, Moses initially began to re-fashion the dolls as consolatory gifts for this long-dead and lonely child. But, perhaps like the toys in Annie's room—gathering dust and becoming, together, something more than themselves—her dolls began to take on a material life of their own. In a process of wrapping and nurturing she compares to "laying out a dead body" Moses swaddles her dolls in lagging, plastic, printed cotton lawn, stiff leather, string, and human hair. A doll whose jolly bonnet and rosy cheeks form a startling contrast to her eye's bald sockets is fondly adorned with a manx-cat brooch, suggesting both completion and absence. Some of the dolls have the cosy air of children sleeping. Others appear to be slightly disgruntled, uselessly struggling against the fabric bundles in which they find themselves enclosed.
(Tabitha Kyoko Moses, "The Dolls" (2004) dolls, fabric, plastic, thread, human hair, bits and bobs. Photography by Harriet Hall and Alexandra Wolkowicz).
The fabric wrappings are crucial to the new life that Moses lends her dolls. These textiles are both ornament and container: the dolls' soft coffin and their decorative memorial. Moses binds a startled bride wearing full wedding regalia in dark linen.
(Tabitha Kyoko Moses, "The Dolls" (2004) dolls, fabric, plastic, thread, human hair, bits and bobs. Photography by Ben Blackall)
In her black shroud she becomes a figure of arrested potential, conveying the ritual proximity of marriage and death. Moses further excavates the deathliness of her dolls with the use of x-ray photography.
(Tabitha Kyoko Moses, The Dolls. X-Ray (2007))
. . . A light-box image of the bride reveals her to be pierced with several pins. She now resonates with murderous curiosity, internal anguish, guilt, and fascination. For who, in moments of dark childhood fantasy, has not killed their dolls?
("Private Investigations lead to . . ." (1907))
In their lovely, yet deeply disturbing ordinariness, Moses' dolls and textiles recall the partially-covered corpse in Wallace Stevens' poem The Emperor of Ice-Cream:
Take from the dresser of deal,
Lacking the three glass knobs, that sheet
On which she embroidered fantails once
And spread it so as to cover her face.
If her horny feet protrude, they come
To show how cold she is, and dumb.
(Wallace Stevens, "The Emperor of Ice-Cream". Harmonium (1922) )
Stevens' corpse is an object of the everyday. In her cold immobility she reminds us of death's easy finality. Yet, like Moses' cared-for dolls, she also suggests the mute compassion of the world of things. We feel the careless weight of her hands on the well-worn dresser; her fingers' quick movement through the stitches of the modest cloth that now decorates her countenance. The dead woman cannot speak, and yet the meanings of her selfhood are silently carried to us in that fantail-embroidered sheet.
(Tabitha Kyoko Moses, Untitled (2006). cotton fabric, sawdust, human humerus bone, various threads, hand embroidery. Photography Ben Blackall.)
In Untitled (2006) Moses uses stitch as a communicative medium between life and death. These dismembered limbs, with their immaculate embroidery, are textiles of breathtaking beauty. Yet out of the gorgeous doll-things protrude human bones. Doll and corpse become one in objects that are both compelling and repellent. Moses' embroidered calico, fashioned with such skill and care, lends respect and tenderness to the bone, and the bone in turn enhances the meanings of the fabric with its own brand of the grotesque. In complete contrast to Cindy Sherman's doll-art which, in the public glare of her camera, strives unsuccessfully to be poignant as well as disgusting, Moses's dolls achieve this by expressing themselves intimately, stitching their audience up with whispers.
So, to return to where we began, perhaps Tabitha Moses' dolls tell us something abut how to feel in Annie's room. What's interesting when one begins to look closely at the piled-up array of gifts in that dark tenement is their different associations. Some have been left with evident care (a pricey bébé) others with apparent thoughtlessness (a screen wipe). So many of Annie's toys seem just misplaced or random: plastic binoculars, a Westlife CD, an enormous grinning bear. Together, though, these things have transformed a space that is supposed to be terribly spooky and lent it a spectacular ordinariness. Annie's room has a stark materiality in which there is a pathos that exceeds, or defies, the uncanny. Like Tabitha Moses' dolls, Annie's too are part of the kindly world of things.

Braid Hills
So here is my new design! The Braid Hills Cardigan!
This is the first in a series of designs celebrating my favourite Edinburgh places. Regular readers will know that I've mentioned The Braids on this site many times: the view of the city from here is spectacular, and the landscape is gorgeous for a ramble particularly in Spring when the air is heady with the smell of gorse and the sound of skylarks.
The colourway I chose for my sample was inspired by gorse too – Blacker Swan DK. This is a deliciously squooshy light DK / sportweight merino, grown in the Falkland Islands and then processed in Cornwall by the Natural Fibre Company. It is airy and bouncy and, because it is worsted spun, it also has a really smooth hand. All of these characteristics means that when knit up the yarn has great definition, and shows off twisted-stitch cables superbly.
I have recently been on a bit of a cable kick, and have been really inspired by Maria Erlbacher's classic Überlieferte Strickmuster (available in English from Schoolhouse Press). Because the 'action' of these stitches occurs on every row, their look is, I think, particularly neat and sinuous. So pleasing.
Many cables are worked as braids, and as I began swatching various twisted-stitch panels, I was strongly reminded of the braided structure of eighteenth-century laced stays and stomachers.
I thought there might be a way to use braided micro cables to lend structure and focus to a garment . . . without, of course, the attendant damage to one's rib-cage involved in eighteenth-century corsetry.
The neckline of eighteenth century garments above a laced bodice tends to be low and squarish, framing the the high bust . . .
(Philip Mercier, portrait of Lousia Balfour, 1751)
. . . so this is how I structured my neckline too.
Because of the low neckline, it is important that the cables and ribbing of the neckline sit across the high bust without undue stretching. So I recommend knitting this cardigan with a little positive ease to give a neat neckline – paerhaps 0.5 – 1 in. I am modelling the garment with around an inch of positive ease (31 in bust / 32 in garment). (The pattern includes a detailed sizing table and schematic to enable you to choose the size that's right for you)
The braided micro cables flow down into the ribbing at the neck and hem, and this intertwined patterning is also echoed on both cuffs . . .
I am fond of these cuffs.
Because this pattern is part of a series inspired by the city in which I've lived for the past decade, I have decided to add in a few Edinburgh extras – so the pattern booklet includes a short editorial feature exploring the history and geography of the Braid Hills, as well as a photographic lookbook. If you have a copy of Colours of Shetland, you'll see that the way I have structured the booklet is very like one of my chapters in that book.
This is a design I'm very pleased with for many reasons, and my cable kick is not quite over yet…
So if you'd like to knit your own Braid Hills cardigan and / or read more about this lovely landscape and how it inspired my design, the booklet is now available!
You can purchase the digital edition of the Braid Hills booklet via Ravelry, or it is available in print (professionally produced in either the EU or US and delivered straight to your door) via Mag Cloud.
Happy knitting!
steeks and swants
So, have you seen Rowan Magazine 54 yet? I finally got my hands on a copy yesterday and there are some wonderful designs in there. My two favourites are probably Anatolia by Marie Wallin – a beautifully luscious yoked sweater knit up in rich shades of Felted Tweed – and Sarah Hatton's Melissa – a neat and eminently wearable wee gansey.
As previously mentioned, I have a design in the Magazine for the first time (woohoo!) and Rowan have also kindly included a profile of me and my work in this issue.
Additionally, I have written an editorial feature about knitting in the round and steeking, and produced a steeking how-to for this issue of the magazine. My tutorial includes instructions for crocheted and machine-sewn steeks, while my feature explores different technical aspects of chopping up your knitting, along with the history and etymology of the steek (did you know, for example that in Scots 'to steek' actually means to close or fasten, rather than to cut open?)
As part of my research for the feature, I had a chat with lovely Stephen West. I am a great admirer of Stephen's approach to design, and really love his style, and I was blown away by the steeked sweater-pants that he began to make last year out of his Amsterdam thrift-shop finds.
For the feature, Stephen sent me some fabulous images of a pair of SWANTS (Sweater-Pants) that he'd whipped up from a vintage Setesdal sweater, but as these didn't make Rowan's final selection for the magazine, I can (with his permission) show them to you here.
For me, Stephen's SWANTS really sum up the approach to steeking which I have tried to get across in the the feature – viz – to just go for it and have fun . . .
I love the SWANTS!
If you'd like to have a go at steeking and refashioning your own pair of SWANTS, Stephen tells me that a tutorial or two will be forthcoming on his blog this Autumn. Thanks, Stephen!
thinking time
Well, I had a fantastic time in Shetland. As I was on my own, I stayed in Lerwick. I really enjoyed meeting up with Shetland friends old and new, and pottering about toon.
But I was there to work — I have a couple of writing commissions in the pipeline, one of which involves producing a short history of Fair Isle knitting for a new (and very exciting) book about Shetland textiles. So I examined a lot of Fair Isle pieces, and I thought a lot about them.
I saw some truly incredible textiles . . .
. . . so many of which defied any idea of the 'traditional' in Fair Isle knitting.
(This striking allover features 4 shades of Shetland wool and 3 shades of artificial silk)
(Fair Isle motifs, but not Fair Isle knitting)
So much to think about.
Rowan and me
Some time in 2005, I was walking through the Edinburgh branch of John Lewis when my eye was caught by the display of Rowan yarns and samples. The gorgeous colours of the yarns and the beautiful styling and photography of the pattern books and magazines really grabbed my attention. On the spot, I decided to start knitting again, and picked up several balls of Big Wool in, if I remember rightly, the 'tomato' shade. The first thing I turned out was a gigantic tomato-coloured moss-stitch wrap on 10mm needles, and since then I have not looked back. What I'm saying is that it was Rowan's yarns, designs, and photography — their distinctive and immediately recognisable aesthetic — that inspired me to take up my needles. I am sure that many knitters (and designers) have a similar tale to tell.
I have been writing features for the Rowan Magazine since 2009, and each one has been a pleasure to produce. Marie Wallin always provides suggestive and inspiring editorial briefs; the generous word length allows one to properly get one's teeth into a topic; and it is genuinely thrilling to see one's words and photographs laid out in such a well-produced and seriously beautiful magazine. Research for the fine lace feature I wrote for Magazine 50 (A/W, 2011) took me to Shetland — the first of many trips, and, for me, the beginning of another journey.
Although I have worked with Rowan for almost four years, I have never met Marie or the rest of the team. Yesterday I finally had the opportunity to do so, and popped down to Yorkshire to visit Rowan's Holmfirth HQ.
I had a lovely day. It was both fascinating and inspiring to see behind the scenes, to gain an insight into the complexities of the design and production process from start to finish, and to catch a glimpse (and squoosh) of what knitters will be treated to in future seasons. It was also lovely to put faces to design-room names, and to have the opportunity to chat about future projects in person.
As these photographs will suggest, it was one of those incredibly busy sorts of days when there wasn't an opportunity to make use of my camera — but these tasty balls of Felted Tweed may give you some indication of various things-in-process. All I'll say right now is watch this space!
Thankyou, Marie, David, Kate and the rest of the Rowan team for a wonderful introduction to the mill!

Do you remember a little while ago I was having a Sonia Delaunay moment?
('Simultaneous' dress & car upholstery)
Around this time, I was knitting the the Puffin Sweater, and shortly afterward, I wrote a piece about Delaunay which has just been published in Rowan 53.
The brief for my feature was to write something to accompany this Rowan design story . . .
. . . and I felt that the influence of Delaunay was startlingly evident in mod-inspired knitwear collections.

Delaunay's proud, modernist vision of garments as wearable art was the starting point of my thinking . . .
(Delaunay celebrated by Vogue in 1925)
. . . but I ended up somewhere rather different.
