Where Women Create: Quilters
By Jo Packham
Gifted by Quarry Books
Reviewed by Melissa Conner, Editor of FaveCrafts.com
Every quilt tells a story...cherished fabric pieces, beloved team tee shirts, and other sewing supplies passed down from generation to generation can be woven together to create a meaningful and memorable work of art that showcases the history of a family. Even smaller sewing projects, like stuffed animals and framed fat quarter projects, can embody quilting techniques and can hold the same precious memories that motivate so many quilters to continue sewing piece after piece until their project is completed.
In her new book, Where Women Create: Quilters, author Jo Packham recounts the personal experiences of more than 20 quilt designers and artisans, who each share a love of textile art. Take a look inside their studio spaces, learn about their creative process, and discover the hidden stories and reasons behind some of their most beautiful and cherished designs.
One of the great things about this book is that it doesn't take up space providing the reader with patterns, rather it is literally bursting at the seams with amazing photographs, motivational quotes, and inspiring stories. There are several patterns (more than 80!) available online for readers to explore, and almost every designer featured in Where Women Create: Quilters has provided links to their blogs, stores, and web sites for futher exploration and inspiration.
I found myself particularly inspired by Amy Butler's spread. With her bright floral fabric motifs and creative project ideas that go above and beyond a quilt, her stories, quotes, and photos have inspired me to go out and try my hand at creating my own cushions, purses, and wall decor.
If you're looking for a little inspiration to help you get started creating your own quilt, or any craft for that matter, let the stories in Where Women Create: Quilters inspire and motivate you. Read about their successes, their failures, their favorite quotes, and their favorite project designs. This is not only a beautiful book to look at, but it will warm your soul and inspire you to craft your own family history, however it is you'd like to preserve it.

Outdoor terrace table/chairs by the beach
spedprofMarch 30, 2012
Looking for a small set of table and 2 chairs for a small terrace in a condo by the ocean. What substance is best to avoid rust and corrosion?? Also, while we cover the furniture, it stays outside during the cold winters.
Thanks for your ideas.
Plastic, Normal aluminum doest work very well right on the beach, as the salt air keeps the normal protective film from forming. Anodized aluminum is much better but only if all the other bolts, pins or other metal connections are all of stainless steel or HDG fasteners would be a second option. Just about anything else will rust eventually.

Love that Jensen 17
Posted by: JackL on Jul-04-13 9:49 AM (EST)
We just bought our second one.
When we bought the first it was advertised as the only canoe that could be paddled tandem or solo and was the fastest rec. canoe on the market.
I tried it solo several times, but I was a tad too short for paddling it solo.
Both of ours have aluminum gunnels, and I have added, changed and reconfigured thwarts, sliding seats and portage yokes.
Maybe when we get too old for racing, I might just try changing it out for rowing.

Builds for other targets will be made available as soon as support for them is added in the build script, which is an ongoing process.
Please note that bug reports will not be accepted against the following, which are considered obsolete. It is recommended to use the latest stable or testing release instead, and report an issue if there is a regression from a previous release.
If you need versions older than
0.12.0, you can look at the old downloads.
The above binaries are static (i.e. do not depend on Qt) but still depend on packages provided by your distribution. As each distribution has a different version for each required package (along with their dependencies, compilation flags, security hardening options such as ASLR), it is not possible to build a single binary which will work consistently across all distributions. Hence, distro-specific packages have been provided as they explicitly declare the required packages and are easy to install.
You can't, but you can extract it from the packages – see this post on the mailing list.
Compile the source code with the instructions given above. It is not possible to compile for all distributions, and each new release requires at least 2 days to build all the above combinations (which are >= 400+ MiB of compressed packages/installers).
There are unoffical build instructions for SmartOS and OpenBSD, but they are still a work in progress.
WS.Reputation.1 for the Windows builds
This is a false positive reported because Symantec has not seen this file before – see this clarification for details.

Demand pump runs for 20 minutes!
I have a rain harvesting system, which means I collect rain water off my roof for drinking purposes. Yes, I have it filtered to the Nth degree, and it has a UV filtration unit as well. My problem is that recently the centrifigual pump (Grundfos MQ3-45) started running for long periods of time (20+ minutes) and the pressure varies. I have no leaks around the house, and the pressure tank (WellXtrol WX203) varies from 20 psi to 50 psi. When I shut off the system to just the pump and filtering system, the pump shuts off after 20 seconds. Open it back up to the pressure tank and it runs forever. Also, I can shut off the house piping after the tank, and there is no change. So, it seems to me I have some sort of pressure tank problem. Can someone help me with this?
Sounds like a pressure tank that has lost its air charge.
Air above the water (sometimes separated from the water with a rubber membrane) is what stores the energy the pump creates to allow the water to flow out of the pressure tank without the pump running.
Since water is not compressible to anything like the degree of air the air is used to store the energy.
Thanks for the response. I have set the air pressure on the tank at both 36 psi for 40 psi head pressure on the pump as well as 25 psi to see if a lower pressure inside the tank would make a difference. It didn't. It always measures where I left it last. I don't see it being a lost air charge because of this. Also, I have tried to see if any water comes out when I lower the pressure using the schrader valve, but none does. I am baffled. Also I realize that I need to adjust the internal pressure when the tank is empty.

Caution for those who invest by computer from home
joyfulguyAugust 25, 2006
The radio said this morning that a couple of investment accounts with investment dealers in the Toronto area, relating to tens of thousands of dollars, had been raided by hackers, with the investments being sold and other, speculative investments bought. They thought that the purpose was to generate activity in the speculative accounts and thus try to get the prices to rise artificially.
There was a suggestion that the investors who owned the accounts were working from a home computer, and may have been invaded by a spy system that recorded keystrokes, thus were able to learn PIN numbers.
Thought you might like to know.

The entire series, plotted as a police procedural in the mid to late 1960's, is well acted and riveting. I prefer to own all episodes of such a series, so adding the sixth was compulsive! It did not disappoint; four new episodes in four very different settings were easily up to the previously established standards. I would recommend this series highly. If further episodes are produced, count on my order.

With the purchase of Series 1, we now have every one of these that are available. This is a wonderful, thoughtful and thought provoking UK detective series. Perhaps the setting in the 60's allows us to look at issues that might otherwise be too "in our face" in a contemporary setting. Wonderful cast, excellent acting and the settings/locations are marvelous. The two lead characters: Inspector Gently and his sergeant have developed a chemistry that works. This is much more than a who-dunnit series.

In this series we meet George Gently, a man who chooses not to become embittered by the murder of his wife. He transfers to the North of England where he continues his police work, encumbered by an absolute twerp of a sergeant. As the series evolves, Gently gradually influences his sergeant for the better. The series portrays the times with great accuracy, from the beehive hairdos of the fashionable women to the attitudes and values of of that era.

I purchased George Gently Series 1 looking for something a little different in the mystery department. I was also influenced by the fact that Martin Shaw plays George Gently. The 3 episodes in this series were well acted and kept me guessing the solution until the end. Besides the women's hairstyles and dress,& the gratuitous references to birth control, however, it wasn't so easy to identify the time period as the 60's. I sm definitely interested in seeing more of this series.

George Gently is different than other British detective/investigative dramas that I have enjoyed. Certainly the 1960s setting is part of it, but it is also the uneasy dynamic between the tough, well worn Inspector George Gently and the overly ambitious Detective Sergeant John Bacchus. It's very much like real-life in that sense. So well written and acted, that you'll be glad you tried another British detective series. I was.

Lvenger's Review of Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods
By Lvenger 69 Comments
Having made several blogs and threads about news regarding this film, I figured I should write a review of Dragon Ball Z: Battle of Gods. This is probably the last blog I'll write for a while so I figured should do another review of a movie and I chose this one. Mainly because I finally found a good quality decently subbed video of the film in question which I've linked in the first sentence for those of you who may be interested or want to watch a well subbed copy of Battle of Gods even if like myself, you'd already read the synopsis and know what's going to happen. As such, this review will cover SPOILERS in relation to major plot points about Battle of the Gods so I figure I should get that out the way to divert anyone who doesn't want to be spoiled. For those still here, I shall begin.
Firstly, let me begin by talking about the story which should be the main meat and substance of a film. To summarise in short, Bills, the film's antagonist and the God of Destruction in the DBZ universe has awoken after a 39 year 'nap' to find a foe that is supposedly a threat to him and his godly power. Its name is the Super Saiyan God. He sets off to find Goku, who is on King Kai's planet training, after his aide, Whis, informed him that Frieza had been killed by this Saiyan. Meanwhile, the rest of the DBZ cast are celebrating Bulma's 38th birthday at a party thrown by her. This neat overview paints a rosier picture than the reality of what is actually the case. The film's story is a big let down in this department because Toriyama essentially writes an overly long filler for the first third of the film at least. Not much happens in terms of progression of the overall plot in the first half hour to 40 minutes of the film. And this is because Toriyama hinges a great deal of the early stages of the story on Bulma's birthday party. The pacing is incredibly terrible as one can clearly see from watching the film due to Toriyama wasting precious minutes of the film on bland scenes such as the Pilaf Gang showing up after being turned young by a wish from the Dragon Balls along with Bills and Whis discovering the culinary diversity of food on Earth and a Bingo tournament. This is what we get after Toriyama takes years off the original series whilst assisting with DBZ Kai? Kai was approved by Toriyama because it was what he wanted the original anime show to be. Kai was punchier, better paced, progressed through the story at a nice rate and didn't waste time on much filler or overdoing it on the action. I honestly don't get the hostility fans of the original anime have to Kai because it refines and improves on so many problems with the original show. But before I lose track, this is where BOG falls down. It wastes too much time on pointless, bland filler centring on Bulma's party for practically the first half of the film and dumps the massive exposition and epic action in the second half. This is similar to a problem I had with Man of Steel although at least that film didn't dump plot and action all at once unlike this film. We don't get clarification on the Super Saiyan God until over halfway into the film where Goku summons Shenron with the Dragon Balls to tell him about it. We don't get to see how it can be summoned until there's some more time wasting to build up tension about a twist in the story. Toriyama's story just screams of filling up and dragging out the film unnecessarily rather than organically introducing plot elements over time balanced with some convenient action pieces.
So I've established my thoughts that the story's very overrated but what about the characterisation? Well for the most part, I do think the portrayal of the characters was decent. Though Toriyama doesn't do much to change the main characters, I guess he doesn't need to given how iconic they are. Goku is cheery, well natured and kind yet foolish, rash and obsessive over facing such a strong opponent as Bills. Yes, there are moments when Toriyama forces him into the limelight but that's a tradition of DBZ I'm afraid. It's not the most organic story telling but it does have an iconicity to it. And I do think Vegeta gets treated well here. Normally, his pride and arrogance gets in the way of him progressing as a character but I did like how Toriyama placed him in a situation that required him to put aside his pride and basically babysit Bills from destroying the planet. Though the scene where Vegeta sings is the most cringe worthy, creepy and downright disturbing scene in Dragon Ball history and that's saying something. And Vegeta gets to show that he has a heart as well when fighting Bills after he slaps Bulma and supposedly surpassing Goku. Mini rant here, I liked it but it makes NO sense for a Super Saiyan or a Super Saiyan 2 to surpass a Super Saiyan 3. This context does not help the plausibility of Vegeta surpassing Goku. I'd much rather Vegeta had turned into a Super Saiyan 3 and given Bills some trouble because that way, it would be plausible for Vegeta to have surpassed Goku. But the most interesting characterisation comes from the new antagonist Bills and his aide Whis. Yes Bills was going to destroy the planet but there was a purpose behind it which was sorely lacking in the Buu Saga and arguably the Android Saga as well. Bills is the God of Destruction so it's his job to destroy planets to maintain order in the universe. What's more, I liked Bills' personality. He's definitely one of the more interesting villains in DBZ. We get to see layers to his character for once. He's capricious, irritable, has a legitimately plausible bad temper and is menacing enough to make the Kais quiver in fear whenever he awakes. But he's also playful, snarky, well mannered, quite calm, inquisitive and in the end, actually humble to an extent. Such a dichotomy in DBZ villains is rare and even though this is far from a good film, Bills is one of the most interesting villains to come out of DBZ. Whis is alright I guess, a bit too much of an obsession on food for him but he balances an absent minded charm with a clarity for what Bills wants and the story at hand.
As a side note, the rest of the DBZ cast could have done with more characterisation if Toriyama had balanced the plot more effectively. But now I'll spend a short paragraph looking at the humour in this film. Aside from epic action, DBZ is known for its light hearted levity at times. Sadly, that isn't present in a good way in this film. There are a few somewhat funny scenes like a drunken Gohan getting shot at and Whis and Bills' reaction to Earth cuisine but they don't outweigh the terribly bad puns. From childish jokes about the Pilaf Gang's age to Trunks having a girlfriend (who is a younger version of a member of the Pilaf Gang) and that awfully cringeworthy scene of Vegeta singing and dancing, the attempts at humour in this film do not come close to salvaging it in the slightest. And there's a ridiculous scene involving Bills and wasabi. The jokes are as lazily written as the plot which really hampers the enjoyment you can get from this film.
Fortunately, there is one sure fire area Dragon Ball Z never fails to impress in. Incredible action and epic fight scenes in DBZ come together like peas in a pod. Though we have to wait til the last half hour for the climatic fight scene, there are appetisers along the way. From Bills humiliating Super Saiyan 3 Goku in 2 hits to owning most of the Dragon Ball Z cast including powerful members like Majiin Buu (who managed to hold off Kid Buu for a while) and Ultimate Gohan who was a boss after his Mystic power up though it's uncertain whether that power wore off over time, we do get sprinklings of action throughout the film that whet the DBZ fan's appetite. These show off how obscenely powerful Bills is and how clearly he's above the DBZ characters at this point in the story. Plus they add to the imposing gravitas Bills has. And then we come to the piece de resistance, Super Saiyan God Goku vs Bills. Now this fight captures the scope that DBZ fights are known for and deftly balances the seismic battle ranging from mountain wastelands to the centre of the Earth and even deep space. All the while balancing the close up shots of seeing punches, kicks and energy blasts fly from the personal perspectives of Goku and Bills. The balance between the huge scale of the fight along with closing in on the blows thrown itself made for an entertaining battle. This was well handled for once in BOG and it's nice to know DBZ hasn't forgotten everything that made it great.
Now for some notes on the animation and soundtrack. The animation was quite smooth and has come on a long way from the original show's look and feel whilst maintaining a similarity in texture and appearance that demonstrated that this form of animation is here to stay for a while yet. And the soundtrack is better for a DBZ movie. There's a particular point where Goku is fighting Bills when Flow's track Hero is excellently implemented into the fight and it times perfectly with what's going on in the fight without detracting from it. In essence, it heightens the stakes of the fight whilst not ruining the fight itself with unnecessary metal or rock. But don't expect me to comment on the Japanese voice acting. The link I've provided is well subbed, one of the best subs I've seen for a DBZ film. You really get a sense of what's going on which was nice. Though that was independent of the film itself and will not be counted in my final rating.
Before I finish, I'd like to make some quick thoughts on the big twists and reveals in the film. Number one, the Super Saiyan God form. I was really disappointed by this. I found it to be lazy, simplistic Kaioken redrawing with a bit of a leaner Goku and red hair. Barely any major difference in transformation which undermined the supposed draw dropping reveal of it. The Super Saiyan transformations have always been accompanied by radical designs behind them. The original Super Saiyan transformation was certainly the most revolutionary of the time giving the Saiyan golden spiky hair and a kickass yellow aura. The enhanced Super Saiyan forms bulked on the muscle which was an interesting design. Super Saiyan 2 had some neat subtle additions via the even spikier hair, a line of hair sticking downwards on the face and an electric aura. And despite what people say, I like the design for Super Saiyan 3. The increasingly longer hair to mirror the increase in power was a great balance. But unlike Super Saiyan 4, which changes too much of the Super Saiyan form, Super Saiyan God looks lazy and unoriginal. I would have liked it if the aura would have been blue instead and there was a dramatic change in appearance for Goky. Secondly, whilst the extra multiverse and gods plot point is interesting, it was tacked onto the end of the film in a rush for Toriyama to do something with later on. That's not how you drop major plot points to be carried on in a 200 episode DBZ series Akira! And finally, Whis being stronger than Bills just undermined the menace Bills posed in the film
To conclude, despite the explosive action and decent characterisation, the story of Battle of Gods is bland and poorly mistimed throughout the film. The uneven distribution of plot, story and characters is not appreciated by me in the slightest along with the terrible humour. The fact is, this is the first major DBZ project Toriyama is on for years and he along with others I assume blow it on this film. It can sell it wants but that's no indication of its quality. Which leaves much to be desired in that department trust me on that. There may be a spark that can be nurtured in the future but for now, this is an average film that is evidence of the flogging of a dead horse.

He (the bird) was in a typical out in the looking for trouble mode when he walked or as I should say strutted into my set up. He tipped the scales just under 20 lbs and supported a 10 inch beard and 1 inch spurs. The second photo is Marty Fischer, who while on a hunt in NE Effingham county harvested this beautifu

Remember When WWE
Remember a time when wrestling was a "sport" that featured guys like Dusty Rhodes or characters named Tugboat and Earthquake? Guys so ugly they earned nicknames like "The Animal" and whose bellies were so large they were the main focus of their characters' finishing moves? Remember when plot lines carelessly tiptoed the topic of slavery like Ted Dibiase, the Million Dollar Man, and his manservant Virgil? And remember a time when the women of wrestling were hunchbacked balls of anger?
Unfortunately, those days are long gone. Gone are the toothless superstars, trailer-trash women, and outrageous characters (the Gobbledy Gooker, anyone?). Now there's a ring full of male models and women torn straight from the pages of Playboy. No longer are there any Mr. Perfects or Diesels, but there's definitely John Cena, AJ Lee, Seth Rollins, and Dean Ambrose. And even though this new form of wrestling doesn't have quite the same silly things that happened through the '80s and '90s, it sure would be fun to see some CM Punk vitamins.

Oakdale High School senior Serina Ahm was recently named the sole winner of a national scholarship offered by Jostens Renaissance, an arm of the Jostens corporation.
The Jostens Renaissance motto is "What you recognize, reinforce, and respect gets results." Find out the results that came from Ahm's inspiring story of believing and achieving in high school in the May 25 issue of The Oakdale Leader.
The City of Oakdale's swimming pool is going to be open for the summer. The Oakdale Irrigation District's Board of Directors approved in a 4-1 vote to give the city $71,500 for the Parks and Recreation Public Swim, Water Safety, and Water Conservation programs. Director Herman Doornenbal was the dissenting vote.
A special trip during spring break for a group of 16 Oakdale Junior High School seventh graders came complete with plenty of learning opportunities in science and history, as well as a significant amount of exercise and sight seeing. Each day was chockfull of these experiences for the students and their chaperones as they embarked on an adventure in the southwest.
Three Oakdale seniors snagged the highest level of recognition for four years of hard work, sacrifice and dedication when they were named co-valedictorians and salutatorian.
A play about the Gold Rush helped fourth graders at Cloverland Elementary School transfer what they learned from a textbook and get a better idea of its realities and have some fun, too. Cloverland teachers Christina Carmelich and Cindy Bellinger assigned roles to their students who then learned lines in a musical called "Gold Dust or Bust."
The seventh grade southwest trip turned into a harrowing experience for 13-year-old Dustin Hoy in its final few days. According to teacher Fred Yerzy, on the fourth day of the adventure, the group completed a difficult hike into the Grand Canyon. They ate dinner at the Cameron Trading Post and Dustin complained that he wasn't feeling well and vomited.
The Oakdale Joint Unified School District Board of Trustees ratified the tentative agreement between the district and the classified employees union in an action at the May 9 regular meeting. The California School Employees Association (CSEA) #830 and the district negotiated and the membership voted in favor of ratification. The agreement is fair and equitable to all parties involved, said Assistant Superintendent for Human Resources and Superintendent-elect Marc Malone.
The Oakdale FFA chapter held its annual awards banquet at the Bianchi Community Center on May 3, handing out numerous achievement awards for its members, as well as recognizing parents and others in the community who've been supportive.
Administrative Changes At Schools
Oakdale High School senior Daniel Dunning, considered an outstanding and well-rounded student, was recently named the winner of the Leo Volz Scholarship. The prestigious and coveted scholarship pays 100 percent of an Oakdale student's college tuition and books for four years of undergraduate education at an accredited two- or four-year college of their choice.
What Oakdale High School senior will have his four-year college education paid for in full due to being an outstanding, well-rounded student? He's the winner of a special scholarship endowed by a former local farmer. Find out who the 2011 Leo Volz Scholarship winner is in the May 4 issue of The Oakdale Leader.
While their peers are out on the playground for lunchtime recess, more than a dozen students at Cloverland Elementary School are meeting, by choice, with adults to read books.
Oakdale Junior High School seventh graders, teachers and parent chaperones are off on a Southwest adventure, including some exploration of the Grand Canyon, for a six-day educational tour during Spring Break, April 25-30.
Two local educators or community members who make a significant difference in the community through their contributions toward the enhancement and improvement of education and the enrichment of the lives of children are selected by the Oakdale Teachers Association each year to receive the California Teachers Association School Bell award. They help instill in others the knowledge, judgment and values that shape society and enhance the lives of future generations.
Oakdale High School art teacher Nancy Kern, librarian Audrey Rinna, and history teacher Marty Fauria had a vision to extend the historical mural that is housed in the school library.
This June will mark 100 years since the first of four generations walked across the stage and earned an Oakdale High School diploma.

Latest NewsNFL | Ray Rice hasn't had workouts (Tue Mar 24, 05:39 PM) - Free-agent RB Ray Rice (Ravens) hasn't had a workout with a team since he was released by the Baltimore Ravens after his domestic violence case. Our View: We're not sure Rice will get a ton of interest on the open market. Running backs can be found without the baggage that Rice will bring. He's not the player he used to be, and Rice may have to wait until after the season begins (and injuries hit) to get another opportunity.
