The Canadian Press - ONLINE EDITION
Ottawa launches $100,000 study to reduce coyote encounters in Cape Breton park
HALIFAX - Parks Canada plans to pay an American biologist $100,000 to come up with a plan to reduce encounters between people and coyotes in Cape Breton Highlands National Park.
The proposed contract announced Monday comes more than two years after a young Toronto woman was mauled to death by coyotes while hiking alone in the park. Taylor Mitchell's death on Oct. 28, 2009, marked the first recorded fatal coyote attack in Nova Scotia, and only the second in North America.
Ten months later, an unidentified 16-year-old Nova Scotia girl was bitten twice on the scalp as she slept outside at one of the park's campgrounds. The girl needed stitches to close her wounds.
The maulings were among several coyote attacks across Nova Scotia that prompted the province to offer a $20 bounty for coyote pelts. About 2,600 of the province's 8,000 coyotes were trapped last season for the bounty.
An official with Parks Canada said no one was immediately available for comment.
The federal government's two-year project in Cape Breton will include live-trapping coyotes in the park and tracking them with global positioning system collars.
Parks Canada says the contract will be awarded to Stan Gehrt at the Max McGraw Wildlife Foundation in Dundee, Ill., unless a better bid comes forward in the next two weeks.
"In the last 15 years there has been an increase in conflict between coyotes and humans, both in frequency and severity," the agency said in an advance contract notice posted Monday on the federal government's online tendering service.
"The primary objectives are to change the behaviour of coyotes so as to reduce conflict between coyotes and humans."
Gehrt's project is to be completed by April 2014. It will also include information about coyote survival rates, diet, range, den locations and whether availability of human food has played a role in promoting aggressive behaviour.
As well, Parks Canada wants an aversion strategy that looks at what tools or techniques will change coyote behaviour.
Gehrt, who teaches at Ohio State University in Columbus, is considered "the leading expert on urban coyotes in North America," Parks Canada said.
"There are no other researchers who have the combination of experience and expertise needed to achieve the objectives of this project."
It remains unclear why Nova Scotia's coyotes have become more bold, an observation challenged by experts who say routine coyote encounters are getting more attention from the media. Some have suggested mild winters, urban sprawl and a diminished supply of snowshoe hares are to blame.
In August 2010, a spokesman for Cape Breton Highlands said park staff would continue to trap and kill aggressive coyotes, but Derek Quann said the province's decision to promote a cull was a bad idea. He said studies have shown bounties don't work because coyotes have the ability to reproduce quickly even when their population is under stress.
Hunting and trapping are not allowed in most federal parks. However, culls have been carried out inside parks when resident animal populations have grown too large. About 400 moose were recently killed in Newfoundland's two national parks.

Build safer cycle routes to boost health, say firmsLast updated at 12:01AM, March 20 2015
A coalition of major businesses have called on the leaders of seven major parties to put cycling 'at the heart of transport policy'
Police have fined 755 cyclists for jumping red lights and other offences under an operation launched in response to the deaths of six cyclists last month, Boris Johnson said today.
But the Mayor of London insisted that Operation Safeway was not "picking on cyclists". He told a meeting of road hauliers that 1,392 drivers had also been fined for jumping a red light or talking on the phone while driving.
The Times reported last month that some police officers were ordered to fine 10 cyclists a month each for road traffic offences following the spate of deaths among bicycle riders.
The order provoked outrage from safety campaigners and cycle groups, who claimed that cyclists were being unfairly targeted.
MPs on the Commons Transport Committee who are investigating cycle safety questioned Commander Dave Martin of the Metropolitan Police about the report last week. He claimed that the coverage was "misconstrued" even though the force confirmed as authentic an email from a senior police officer sent on the day of the last death urging all traffic police in his area to target cyclists.
"Officers have four months to do 40 cycle tickets. Ten per month, 2.5 a week. Most officers are nearing or have even achieved their other targets. This will give them a renewed focus for a while," the e-mail from Inspector Colin Davies of the Metropolitan Police's South East Area Traffic Garage said.
Police have been deployed at 166 key junctions in London since late November with orders to issue fixed-penalty notices to anyone seen breaking road traffic laws and to give cyclists safety advice. Operation Safeway follows the deaths of six cyclists in 13 days up to November 18.
Mr Johnson has faced criticism from some cycle groups for failing to do enough to protect cyclists following deaths on the dedicated cycle network.
However, the Mayor insisted that he would not be deterred from his mission to turn London into one of the most attractive cities in the world for cyclists. "The cycling revolution will continue and it will accelerate. This is not the time to slacken off or give up because if we get this right, the prize is huge," he said.
"If we can get Londoners on to bikes, we can take the pressure off public transport, we can reduce traffic and I believe we can help people to be fitter, calmer, less hassled and to enjoy the glories of the city in a way that is different every day."
The Transport Commissioner for London, Sir Peter Hendy, is lobbying the EU and UN to alter directives covering the size and weight of road vehicles and to authorise a new type of lorry that are designed to give a clearer view of the road in front of the driver's cab and on the near-side of the vehicle.
Lorries are responsible for a disproportionate number of deaths among cyclists.
Sir Peter, a licensed bus driver, said that buses were safer because the cab is lower to the ground and the driver has a better view of the road in front of and beside his vehicle. "I think it is awful and unforgiveable that modern trucks don't have that sort of vision," he said.
Sir Peter displayed a proto-type tipper truck commissioned by the Laing O'Rourke construction company. The left-hand side of the lorry's cab is entirely made of glass and the cab is 18 inches lower than that of a standard tipper truck.
The Transport Commissioner said that he wanted the European Commission to put pressure on manufacturers to ensure that such vehicles become the norm. The truck costs £10,000 more than a typical £100,000 model.
"We will make sure they are economical. We will make sure no one comes on our sites without them," Sir Peter said.

Attachments (Hardcover)

"Attachments is so perfectly engaging, so sly, and so funny I read it all in one sitting, then went back and read my favorite scenes a second time...I hope Rowell never stops writing."
-Haven Kimmel
Beth and Jennifer know their company monitors their office e-mail. But the women still spend all day sending each other messages, gossiping about their coworkers at the newspaper and baring their personal lives like an open book. Jennifer tells Beth everything she can't seem to tell her husband about her anxieties over starting a family. And Beth tells Jennifer everything, period.
When Lincoln applied to be an Internet security officer, he hardly imagined he'd be sifting through other people's inboxes like some sort of electronic Peeping Tom. Lincoln is supposed to turn people in for misusing company e-mail, but he can't quite bring himself to crack down on Beth and Jennifer. He can't help but be entertained-and captivated- by their stories.
But by the time Lincoln realizes he's falling for Beth, it's way too late for him to ever introduce himself. What would he say to her? "Hi, I'm the guy who reads your e-mail, and also, I love you." After a series of close encounters and missed connections, Lincoln decides it's time to muster the courage to follow his heart . . . even if he can't see exactly where it's leading him.
Written with whip-smart precision and charm, Attachments is a strikingly clever and deeply romantic debut about falling in love with the person who makes you feel like the best version of yourself. Even if it's someone you've never met.
Praise for Attachments…
"Rainbow Rowell lights up the sky with this sparkling debut novel. ATTACHMENTS is fresh, fun and charmingly quirky."

My name is Kristen Henry, and I am a VERY amateur seamstress. I've made my own clothes and costumes for years, but mostly from my own designs or improvised methods.
I've recently decided to reign in my rebellious streak, and instead to start using proper patterns. I've just purchased two from S&S, and when they arrive I shall dive right in.
I'm so happy to find this place… I'm sure that I'll make good use of all of the info contained on this site.

Truthfully, it's really all happened through a process of trial and error. But once I'd bought a dress form I had found it rather easy to just put fabric on her and invent things using the lines of the dress form as a guide for where to put seams, to how dart and tuck, etc…
Still, using a properly made pattern, as you say, gives a fresh perspective… as well as teaches different methods of assembly and finishing which I can always use

When I first found S&S Forum, 6 or 7 years ago, I was in awe of the women here who make their own patterns and amazing historically inspired garments. Eventually I learned to make patterns as well. Pattern making is actually quite simple – now that I know how it's done. I find it's harder to decide what I want to make.
Good luck with "proper" patterns!

Wow I would really like to be able to work with a pattern of my own design but I'm not that brave. I too an amateur seamstress but I usually get by somehow. Lol

britlitgirl I completely understand the brave part. I felt that way for a long, long time. But I kept asking questions, reading, a friend gave me a DVD, and I finally I decided one day that I wasn't coming out of my sewing room until I had done it. Something finally clicked and off I went. Now I teach fashion design that includes pattern drafting.
I went back and looked. I've been part of the S&S community for almost TEN YEARS! wow. I'm getting old. lol

I hear the bravery bit from others as well, and I have to confess that it always surprises me. I haven't ever been afraid to try something… of course i failed many times when I began. But those failures helped me to find my way forward.
I suppose i've been fortunate in that I've always been good at looking at things and breaking them down either into their individual parts, or recognising what i could imprvise to make this or that from whatever is lying about.
In any case, diving in head first can be scary, but the rewards far outweigh any potential missteps along the way.

I've dabbled a little in simple pattern-making/copying existing garments for a while. It's great to see someone else who has so much experience! I definitely need more practice if I want to continue making my own designs.

Hi Kristen! I still haven't been brave enough to draft/drape my own patterns yet. Skirts, I can do with no problems. I'm still relying on patterns for bodices and sleeves. Maybe I'll get the courage to try it one day

Hair highlights is a trend that looks good on every woman and never go out of fashion. Regardless of your long, cut or personal style, highlights brighten your face, boost your confidence and make you look smoother and younger. Highlights are very popular because for many women their natural hair color can look flat and with age, gray hair began to appear.
Cool Highlights is the perfect way to transform a dull and conservative look. They allow modern women to express their creativity while getting hair color more vivid and richer in the process. Many women choose to get hair highlights before attending a wedding, prom, party or social event, or after a breakup or a career change. Whatever the reason there are many styles to choose between.
New women for this trend may be struggling with choosing a cool and trendy look but still remain faithful to their personal style. For those who are looking for small changes, subtle highlights can be done only to add warmth to your current hairstyle. For example, a natural blonde can add a few more shades of blonde to add depth and dimension. Brunettes want to see warmer should stay within 2 to 3 shades of their original hair color for a natural look.
Highlights coolest thing is they are bold and dramatic. Instead of highlighting the small pieces of hair, a popular trend is to implement a multi-tonal highlights around the head, often add in some red and blonde shades in both warm and cool colors to create a beautiful look. For those who wanted to create an unforgettable look, go with lowlights. They add contrast by adding in the dark swatches of hair to a lighter hair color. Display can be done in the whole head or just apply on the bottom of the hair for contrast. A sleek look for black women with natural hair to add red to the bottom side of the hair to look more dynamic.
Highlights not to be done around the head to create a unique look. Only a single piece of hair at the crown or add color only with bangs or face frame to look hot. To really turn heads, go for extreme color choices. Teens who want to be creative can be switched to bright green, pink, purple, blue and white. Style highlights edgiest is to add horizontal lines highlight color is not vertical; seen a teenage girl who wants a truly original style can appreciate. Women who want bold colors but must remain professional image can still look cool and elegant with a small strand of hair highlight in warm mahogany, copper, gold and bronze tones.
When done correctly it will look good on long, medium and short hair. The key to finding highlights cool is to keep your eyes peeled. Celebrity magazines and women can be a source of inspiration. They have access to the best hair colorist and often start the latest trends in hairstyles. Consultation with a professional hair colorist will also reveal the most sought after trends and ensure the health of your hair.

My column this month focuses on avgas, and if you read nothing else, you need to know that I believe:
1. Supplies of 100LL will remain readily available;
2. The GA community is aligned in the search for a fuel without lead;
3. We are embarked on a process that will take a number of years, but must and will lead us to an alternative fuel formulation.
You should also know that I and others at AOPA are fully engaged in this process and that the GA community has not chosen to support any specific solution—and won't until we know more about all the available options.
With a dwindling market for leaded fuel, just one remaining provider of the tetraethyl lead used in avgas, and U.S. policy calling for the removal of lead from fuels, we have to face the fact that 100LL probably won't be around forever. But coming up with an effective, affordable, safe alternative has been no walk in the park, even though researchers have investigated more than 200 possible fuel formulations.
Members of our technical group here at AOPA liken the search for a replacement fuel to a Rubik's Cube—putting one piece of the puzzle where it belongs can knock two or three other pieces out of alignment. When it comes to finding a solution, government, regulators, the GA community, and the petroleum industry have to balance complex interconnected environmental, economic, and technical issues. Trying to deal with each of these issues in isolation is like solving just one side of a Rubik's Cube—it leaves the rest in disarray.
But, as so often happens with complex puzzles, the foundation of the solution is contained in the problem itself. After all, if these considerations must be in balance to create a viable alternative to leaded fuel, then shouldn't we bring the people who best understand each of these concerns together to strike that balance?
What we need is a way to research potential solutions, resolve the unknowns, and better understand how each potential solution will affect production, distribution, the environment, aircraft performance and safety, and the economics of aviation. Only when we have those answers will we be in a position to make good decisions about potential changes to our fuel supply. The ultimate solution must be a fuel that we can rely on for decades to come, just as we have long relied on avgas.
To help find that way forward, numerous aviation and petroleum industry groups have banded together as part of an organization called the General Aviation Avgas Coalition and are developing the Future Avgas Strategy Transition Plan. In addition to AOPA, the members include EAA, GAMA, NATA, and NBAA, as well as the American Petroleum Institute and the National Petrochemical Refiners Association. The members of this group have pledged to work together to find solutions that will keep the general aviation fleet in the air while being affordable, safe, and environmentally sound.
Together, we will evaluate the body of research that has been conducted over the past 20 years, as well as new work now being performed, to find the best possible solution. We are committed to working with the rest of the aviation industry as well as EPA, FAA, and other agencies to make sure we continue to have an adequate supply of avgas in the short term and the best possible solution in the long term.
And we are not the only ones collaborating on this issue. Aircraft owners who fly high-performance airplanes that truly need the extra boost provided by leaded fuel are organizing to represent their interests, as well. These aircraft represent about 30 percent of the GA fleet, but they burn some 70 percent of the avgas used each year.
Recent action by the EPA has made the effort to find an alternative to leaded fuel more urgent than ever. A new advance notice of proposed rulemaking sets out the agency's intent to investigate leaded fuel used in general aviation. This action is intended to provide the EPA with enough information to move to the next step—proposing regulation to reduce lead emissions and implement a transition process.
We will respond in detail and have asked for more time to gather information. An extension was agreed to and now the GA community is preparing comments for the EPA.
We are also asking Congress to approve an administration request for an additional $2 million within the FAA's 2011 research and development budget—money specifically intended to support the development of an alternative to leaded avgas.
For now, avgas continues to be widely available, and we are working hard to make sure it stays that way until the right solution can be found and implemented. So, while we are very busy behind the scenes on this issue, don't expect to see any immediate changes. It's still far too early to decide how to replace leaded avgas. Together with our partners in government, science, and industry, I do believe we can find a workable solution. And, rest assured, AOPA will make certain everyone concerned takes the needs of the entire general aviation community into account at every step along the way.

Local 9th graders grab spotlight after shutdown ends
It was all about timing last week for a group of 9th graders on a field trip to Washington, D.C.
Thirty-one students from Discovery Middle School and their eight chaperones arrived in D.C. on October 16, just as there was a sliver of hope that the federal government shutdown would end.
"I was just apprehensive about what we were going to be able to see. We had an alternate route planned," said Claire Anderson, teacher and trip coordinator.

This event is all ages
Kim Deal, Kelley Deal, Josephine Wiggs and Jim Macpherson played their first show together on Friday, June 19, 1992 in a snooker hall behind Warrington Rugby Club in the north of England, near Manchester. Two days later, they supported Nirvana in Dublin and Belfast, and then played at Glastonbury. Back in the U.S., after playing 27 sold-out shows that fall, they made their way to San Francisco to record Last Splash.
Released August 30, 1993 on 4AD, reviewers described the Platinum-selling Last Splash as "effervescent," "blistering" and "incoherent." At its center is the infectiously appealing, instantly recognizable "Cannonball." Propelled in part by the video directed by Kim Gordon and Spike Jonze, the song was voted Single of the Year by the NME. After more than two years of touring, they played their last show on September 5, 1994, at Lollapalooza in Los Angeles.
In 2013 they will play together again for the first time, performing Last Splash live. Confirmed dates are on here.
4AD will release LSXX, a deluxe anniversary edition of Last Splash in April 2013.

Egypt: New Find Shows Slaves didn't Build Ancient Monuments
In this undated photo released by the Egyptian Supreme Council of Antiquities on Sunday, Jan. 10, 2010, newly-discovered tombs of workers are seen, with the Great Pyramid in background, in Giza, Egypt. Egyptian archaeologists have discovered a new set of tombs of the workers who built the great pyramids, shedding new light on how the laborers lived and ate more than 4,000 years ago, the antiquities department said Sunday. Zahi Hawass, the director of Egypt's Supreme Council of Antiquities, says the tombs are significant because they show that the pyramids were not built by slaves, but rather free workers.

By: Katarina Kratovac, Associated Press Writer
Egypt displayed on Monday newly discovered tombs more than 4,000 years old and said they belonged to people who worked on the Great Pyramids of Giza, presenting the discovery as more evidence that slaves did not build the ancient monuments.
The series of modest nine-foot-deep shafts held a dozen skeletons of pyramid builders, perfectly preserved by dry desert sand along with jars that once contained beer and bread meant for the workers' afterlife.
The mud-brick tombs were uncovered last week in the backyard of the Giza pyramids, stretching beyond a burial site first discovered in the 1990s and dating to the 4th Dynasty (2575 B.C. to 2467 B.C.), when the great pyramids were built on the fringes of present-day Cairo.
The ancient Greek historian Herodotus once described the pyramid builders as slaves, creating what Egyptologists say is a myth later propagated by Hollywood films.
Graves of the pyramid builders were first discovered in the area in 1990 when a tourist on horseback stumbled over a wall that later proved to be a tomb. Egypt's archaeology chief Zahi Hawass said that discovery and the latest finds last week show that the workers were paid laborers, rather than the slaves of popular imagination.
Hawass told reporters at the site that the find, first announced on Sunday, sheds more light on the lifestyle and origins of the pyramid builders. Most importantly, he said the workers were not recruited from slaves commonly found across Egypt during pharaonic times.
One popular myth that Egyptologists say was perpetrated in part by Hollywood movies held that ancient Israelite slaves ancestors of the Jewish people built the pyramids.
Amihai Mazar, professor at the Institute of Archaeology at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem, says that myth stemmed from an erroneous claim by former Israeli Prime Minister Menachem Begin, on a visit to Egypt in 1977, that Jews built the pyramids.
"No Jews built the pyramids because Jews didn't exist at the period when the pyramids were built," Mazar said.
Dorothy Resig, an editor of Biblical Archaeology Review in Washington D.C., said the idea probably arose from the Old Testament Book of Exodus, which says: "So the Egyptians enslaved the children of Israel with backbreaking labor" and the Pharaoh put them to work to build buildings.
"If the Hebrews built anything, then it was the city of Ramses as mentioned in Exodus," said Mazar.
Dieter Wildung, a former director of Berlin's Egyptian Museum, said it is "common knowledge in serious Egyptology" that the pyramid builders were not slaves and that the construction of the pyramids and the story of the Israelites in Egypt were separated by hundreds of years.
"The myth of the slaves building pyramids is only the stuff of tabloids and Hollywood," Wildung told The Associated Press by telephone. "The world simply could not believe the pyramids were build without oppression and forced labor, but out of loyalty to the pharaohs."
Hawass said the builders came from poor Egyptian families from the north and the south, and were respected for their work so much so that those who died during construction were bestowed the honor of being buried in the tombs near the sacred pyramids of their pharaohs.
Their proximity to the pyramids and the manner of burial in preparation for the afterlife backs this theory, Hawass said.
"No way would they have been buried so honorably if they were slaves," he said.
The tombs contained no gold or valuables, which safeguarded them from tomb-raiders throughout antiquity, and the bodies were not mummified. The skeletons were found buried in a fetal position the head pointing to the West and the feet to the East according to ancient Egyptian beliefs, surrounded by the jars once filled with supplies for afterlife.
The men who built the last remaining wonder of the ancient world ate meat regularly and worked in three months shifts, said Hawass. It took 10,000 workers more than 30 years to build a single pyramid, Hawass said a tenth of the work force of 100,000 that Herodotus wrote of after visiting Egypt around 450 B.C.
Hawass said evidence from the site indicates that the approximately 10,000 laborers working on the pyramids ate 21 cattle and 23 sheep sent to them daily from farms.
Though they were not slaves, the pyramid builders led a life of hard labor, said Adel Okasha, supervisor of the excavation. Their skeletons have signs of arthritis, and their lower vertebrae point to a life passed in difficulty, he said.
"Their bones tell us the story of how hard they worked," Okasha said.
Wildung said the find reinforces the notion that the pyramid builders were free men, ordinary citizens
"But let's not exaggerate here, they lived a short life and tomography skeletal studies show they suffered from bad health, very much likely because of how hard their work was."

Need help understanding hair dryer features and technologies? Here are some essentials to know when choosing a hair dryer. For more in-depth info, check out our Hair Dryer Buying Guide.
|Hair Type
|Fine, thin or damaged
|If hair is fragile or damaged towel blot hair first to absorb excess water and then dry on the lowest setting.
|Medium/normal straight or wavy
|Most hair types will dry well with a variety of watt ranges, fewer watts will make your cuticles curl up!
|Thick and curly
|For thicker hair get tough with a top wattage dryer, e your stronger strands will dry faster!
The volts and wattage of a hair dryer don't necessarily equal drying power. Other features such as ion emission and tourmaline technology also work to speed drying time by evaporating water molecules from hair. Sylvia Zori, Folica.com's own hair dryer guru, offers a science class refresher. Water is a polar molecule, having a pair of equal and opposite charges. Positively charged air passes through an ionic converter in professional dryers that creates a negative charge to dry hair smoothly. The more negative ions a hair dryer can produce, the faster hair will dry with smoother, shinier results. Ionic technology paired with tourmaline and ceramic boosts productivity even further, taking half the time to dry and exposing hair to less heat.
Motor type is also a factor in hair drying time. Without boring you with high-technicalities, you want a dryer with an AC motor, which is designed to require less maintenance than a DC motor and will last longer. An AC motor is heavier than a DC, but will last longer, so more substantial equals quality in this case. AC motors are also used in other small home appliances like food processers because of their durability.

BOSTON — PepsiCo, Inc. is driving "bigger, better innovations" throughout its 200 markets due to an approach that now more clearly captures unmet needs, said Zein Abdalla, president of PepsiCo, Inc., Purchase, N.Y.
In a Sept. 4 presentation at the Barclays Back-to-School Conference in Boston Mr. Abdalla elaborated on how PepsiCo uses a proprietary way of defining the consumer opportunity to drive innovation. He described the opportunity as PepsiCo's "consumer demand space framework."
"What we have taken is literally millions of consumption occasions and the drivers of those consumption occasions and used them to map how a consumer makes a decision about what to buy and consume against the different demand spaces," Mr. Abdalla said.
He said demand space is defined by several factors: Who the consumer is; what is the occasion on which they are making that decision to consume; and what is the target group of who that consumer is.
By identifying the demand space factors, PepsiCo has been able to make sure its innovation is synergistic so it doesn't get overlapped either in terms of the brand or the innovation the company is attempting to drive. Mr. Abdalla said it also has allowed PepsiCo to be clearly targeted in its innovation efforts against what are the biggest opportunities by consumer demand space, or "unmet needs," that exist in the marketplace.
"The result of this approach and the underpinning capabilities is that we now have a global portfolio pipeline of innovation that we have transparency to across the whole company that means that we can drive fewer, but bigger, better innovations," he said. "So we are placing a lot of activity with more focused, bigger groundbreaking type, innovation type initiatives.
"We have underpinned it with a very clear global stage gate process, which again gives transparency across the globe. So somebody (sitting) in Australia can see what recently worked in the U.S., and this accelerates the whole lift and adapt. It means that we can get innovation for many of those 200 markets simply and purely as a result of what they can lift from other scale-adjacent markets."
Mr. Abdalla said PepsiCo now may target global platforms rather than "one-off innovation initiatives," which means that as something works the company is able to take the technology that underpins it and leverage that technology more broadly against more demand spaces.
"Finally, the global capabilities around R.&D. and introducing new capabilities like the design-led innovation capability at PepsiCo, which allows us now to generate consumer propositions that are much more rich, much more rewarding, and much more holistic from inception right the way through to execution," he said.

"We are getting married in the Great Smoky mountains national park and once we laid eyes on these we knew they were perfect. Got them, they looked great and wears very happy with the price, quality and the purchase in general!"
"The design for this invitation was perfect for our rustic fall wedding and we fell in love with it right away. We were so pleased when it arrived as the paper quality felt expensive and the design was even more beautiful in person (LOVE the branches on the back!). We would highly recommend upgrading to the kraft paper envelope for this one (it really brings out the coloring of the invite). The ONLY drawback to this design (for us) was that there was not an option to add RSVP/website information as we are managing this electronically vs. formal RSVP cards."
"We ordered the invitations in blue. The flower colors were beautiful. We opted to use the standard paper, and the quality of the paper was excellent. It was very easy to create the invitations and edit the text. Wedding Paper Divas sent a proof of the invitation prior to printing. The invitations arrived on time and were packed very nicely in a box to prevent any damages from shipping."
"I ordered the black version of this card, and it is absolutely gorgeous! I'm using a lot of bright wildflowers in my wedding, so this invitation complements the theme very well. Another reason I gave them a five star review is because of their customer service. I almost freaked out when I saw that my venue had changed addresses but hadn't called me. They changed it after 4 days of submitting my order for invitations on here! I contacted Wedding Paper Divas and they were so understanding. They sent us 200 invitations with the new address free of charge. I will forever be a returning customer. Thank you so much Wedding Paper Divas! :)"
"My daughter loves these wedding invites in blush. They arrived today and the design team did a great job centering everything on the card. Again, just as the tea party invitations, I feel the smaller font is hard to read. These cards are keepsake quality. Thanks again for another awesome product. The back is pretty too."

Written by Brad Martin, ACK Web Content Manager
When you start college people talk about the "Freshman 15″ aka those 15 pounds one gains during their freshman year of college. Well, my Freshman 15 quickly turned into the Senior 55. I walked into college a slim 170lbs and walked out a round 225lbs. Needless to say, I enjoyed my years in Huntsville, Texas, home of the Sam Houston State University Bearkats!
After college I continued my upward trend in weight. Peaking at 253lbs, I was definitely what you would call round. Continue reading Brad's Journey to the Huntsville Half
