Straight to the Source – Gil Fronsdal on the Inner Structure of Mindfulness Practice
The Process of Insight and Concentration in the Buddha's teaching on the Four Foundations of Mindfulness.
The Buddha's most comprehensive instruction on mindfulness practice is in the Discourse on the Four Foundations of Mindfulness. By building on awareness of breath, body, feelings, and mind, the discourse gives instruction on developing insight into the psychological dynamics directly connected to liberation. The structure of the practice described in the discourse involves a natural process of inner transformation that follows from the development of mindfulness and concentration working together.
This inner structure, often overlooked, will first be described in lectures, and then explored through meditation instruction and periods of meditation.

Making History at St Fagans: Roundhouses and a Prince's Court
26 March 2015
,I have just begun my fourth week as Principal Curator of Historic Buildings, here at St. Fagans, and this is my first blog post. My background is in archaeology, and more specifically, experimental archaeology.
This type of archaeological investigation tests the theories that have grown out of excavated archaeological evidence. Essentially we try and build something that would leave the same evidence as discovered, if excavated in the future. This challenges our assumptions and raises new questions.
Iron Age Roundhouses
In my time I have built four roundhouses based on the archaeology of Iron Age homes. As the excavated archaeology in many cases is less than 30cm in depth, everything above ground is conjecture derived from the surviving evidence. As you may imagine, trying to figure out the structural details of buildings that haven't been seen in 2,000 is a challenging yet satisfying task. Therefore, it gives me great pleasure to be part of St. Fagans latest experimental projects – the construction of an Iron Age farmhouse based on evidence from Bryn Eryr in Anglesey, and Llys Llywelyn, a medieval Royal Court based on evidence from Llys Rhosyr, again in Angelsey.
As I write the thatching of the farmhouse is underway, and it won't be long until the building is watertight. This will be a blessed relief, as the prolonged rain this winter has prevented the buildings 1.8m-thick clay walls from drying as quickly as hoped. Yes, the walls are of solid clay – unlike most excavated roundhouses which had wattle and daub or stone walls. Although such buildings were not uncommon, this is the first reconstruction of this kind of under-represented roundhouse.
A Medieval Prince's Court
The two buildings of Llys Llywelyn have reached chest height, and the Museum's stonemasons are about to start on the window reveals. The court was discovered in Anglesey and excavated between 1992 and 1996. The surviving masonry stands no more than 1m in height. Therefore, like the farmhouse, this too is a replica based on excavated evidence.
Written records from the period, such as 'Brut y Tywysogion' state clearly that there was a Royal Hall at this location, and frequented by Llywelyn ap Iorwerth during the first half of the 13th century. What we do not know for certain, however, is what it looked like. This knowledge comes from the comparative analysis of surviving Royal halls built during the same period, as seen at Conwy castle and the Bishop's Palace in St. Davids.
As I plan to write regular blog posts to keep you informed of the latest developments, I will also aim to re-cap the work that has already been achieved so that you have a clearer understanding of these remarkable buildings, and our attempts at bringing it back to life.
Bryn Eryr Farm - How to become an Iron Age Carpenter
9 January 2014
,As Steve said in his last blog posted in December, we've started work on growing the thatch for our new Iron Age farm. Alongside this work we've also been giving a lot of thought to the objects that will go inside the houses. Far from being primitive, these replica objects will reflect the high level of knowledge and skill possessed by people who lived in Bryn Eryr over 2000 years ago. One of the first tasks is to furnish the round houses with all those essential objects that no self-respecting Iron Age household could do without, such as plates, bowls, utensils, buckets , storage containers, shelves, barrels, weaving looms, beds, just to name a few.
In this period all these items were made from wood, but we have a problem, wood deteriorates quickly in the ground so objects made from this material rarely survive. However, we think we can find out more about the wooden objects they would have had by studying the carpentry tools available at this time. These were made from iron and because of this have survived in greater abundance. Ancient iron-work is often much underrated as it doesn't look very attractive, but when trying to recreate everyday life the information domestic ironwork objects can provide is invaluable.
The first stage of making the replicas was to search the archaeological collections for any original Iron Age carpentry tools. Much to my delight we had quite a lot of material and could virtually recreate a whole tool kit from examples found throughout Wales. Our Bryn Eryr tool kit will therefore consist of an axe, adze-hammer, gouge, chisels, files, drill bits and numerous wedges from small to large. Timber in the Iron Age was divided up by splitting with wedges rather than cutting with a saw. Saws did exist, but were small, similar to modern pruning saws today.
An Iron Age household would be equipped with a wide range of tools for a variety of purposes. Some of these objects appear strange to us today, but others are quite familiar. A 2,000 year old chisel found in the Roman fort of Brecon Gaer and a gouge from the Hill Fort at Castell Henllys wouldn't look out of place in a carpenter's tool kit today.
Once our tool kit had been compiled from the examples in the collection, the next step was to make working replicas that could be used by our craftspeople to recreate the objects for Bryn Eryr.
Careful conservation of the original tools had preserved some of the original surfaces. Marks on these surfaces enabled our blacksmith 2000 years later to work out how they were made and reproduce the replicas as accurately as possible. The replicas are recreated in wrought iron like the originals, which is much softer than the steel used today, so it will be interesting to see how these tools perform? Will we be able to produce a decent cutting edge, how quickly will this edge dull and how often will it need to be sharpened?
Making the tool heads is only half the story, these tools can't be used without handles! None of the originals survive and from the shape of some tools we just can't pop modern handles on them. We know our tools once had wooden handles, because in some cases the deteriorating iron around the socket had made a cast of the wood surface before the handle disappeared. Using a combination of this information and some surviving material from elsewhere, plus the expertise of our own carpenters and estate workers, we managed to reproduce handles to complete the tools.
Now all we have to do is see if they work! More importantly have we still got the expertise to use these tools properly? Hopefully by using them we'll gain an insight into the skill of our Iron Age carpenters. I'm sure they would be laughing themselves silly if they could see our efforts today, but we have to start somewhere!
So, how did our tools perform? Its early days, but everyone including our craftspeople are impressed. They appear to be performing well, we even managed to split a large piece of timber with our wedges. It probably explains why so many of these wedges end up in our collection, they tend to get lost inside the timber during splitting and fall to the ground where they are difficult to spot!
We hope to undertake more experimental work to assess the performance of these tools, so keep watching this space, but in the mean time we have to crack on, there's the contents of a roundhouse to make!
Starting work on our new Celtic Village
20 December 2013
,As many regular visitors to St Fagans will know, our much-loved Celtic Village was closed earlier in the year. Twenty years seems to be about the normal life-span for reconstructed Iron Age roundhouses – the timbers decay and they begin to get a bit wobbly after that. To replace it we're going to be building a new reconstruction based on a 2,000 year old Iron Age farmstead on Anglesey called Bryn Eryr, and just recently we reached a really exciting milestone along the way.
The Bryn Eryr roundhouses consisted of two buildings built side-by-side. Their walls were made of packed clay (probably mixed with grit and straw, like Wales's traditional clom-built houses) and the roofs were thatched. We've had a lot of discussions about what we should use to thatch them. Naturally the roofs of the original buildings haven't survived, but we do know that its Iron Age owners had access to spelt – an early form of wheat – because charred grains were found at the site. From there the argument goes, if they were harvesting spelt grains to make their bread they also had their hands-on a useful thatching material, spelt straw.
So, we thought, St Fagans is surrounded by farm land, we've got an excellent farming team, and lots of enthusiasm, why not try to grow a crop of spelt ourselves and see whether we can thatch our next Iron Age farmstead with it?
There are a lot of uncertainties involved in this, many things can go wrong between the idea and the harvesting but St Fagans is part of an EU collaboration which encourages just this kind of experimental research. So thanks to the OpenArch project, with its Culture programme funding, and a lot of advice from experts in the field (apologies for the pun), we've decided to give it a go.
A few months ago we ploughed 3.4 hectares (8.4 acres) just outside the main museum site. This looks like an enormous area when you're stood beside it, but we're told this is what we need in order to produce enough straw to thatch two large roundhouses.
With the ploughing done, our Learning Team organised an opportunity for school groups to come out and see what we were up to. This was followed by the museum's archaeologists bringing together a team of volunteers who walked the area in search of any artefacts that may have been turned up by the plough. The finds from this have yet to be analysed but already we can see that the area had been visited by prehistoric hunter-gatherers, a 13th-century traveller who lost some loose change, and many other more recent people.
And then it rained, and rained and rained. Our spelt seed arrived and was placed in a barn, and still it rained. I was beginning to get very worried. It's all very well having a plan to grow a crop of Iron Age wheat, but that's not going to happen if the seed stays in sacks. Then a few weeks the weather cleared up, the ground dried sufficiently and we finally got a chance to plant.
Then we waited… Would anything happen? Had we left it too late? Would frosts / rain / snow put a stop to our plans? Happily not! Last week we found the first seeds had germinated. I'm going out to the field again today to check on its progress. Will the shoots be showing? Have we got the spacing of the seed right? Will the rabbits leave it alone? Will it grow tall? I feel like an expectant father all over again.
Conserving some newly found Roman cremation urns and their contents
13 December 2013
One item currently residing in the archaeological conservation laboratory is something that looks like a pot, but isn't! It's solid and actually made of soil that contains the cremated remains of a Roman who once lived at the Roman fort of Isca, now the town of Caerleon. This was contained inside a pot, but the vessel was cracked and broken so the pieces fell away leaving it's contents intact, held together by the dry clay soil.
Wherever you dig in Caerleon you often find the Romans have been there before you. So, not surprisingly, when digging the foundations of a garage a cremation urn was unearthed. The pot and contents was carefully excavated and brought back to the conservation lab at the National Museum of wales in Cardiff for examination and treatment.
Once the soil had been removed from the outside it became clear the pot was seriously damaged. In damp ground this relatively low fired pottery becomes quite soft and therefore easily misshapen by the pressure of the soil around it. The building work above had squashed our pot forcing the rim and shoulders down inside it, while the sides had begun to bulge out and split like the segments of an orange. It was only the soil around the pot that was keeping it together, so as the soil was carefully removed in the lab, pieces of the pot (in archaeology referred to as pot sherds) started to fall away leaving a complete pot-shaped core of soil still containing the cremation. It even had a cast of the interior surface, including the ridges created by the potter's fingers formed when the clay was being turned on the wheel.
Once the pot was fully dismantled and cleaned, all 105 pieces were put back together again, some areas were missing and hadn't survived, but enough was retrieved to recreate the original shape. The pot was a bit reluctant at first to return to its original form because it had become misshape in the ground, but with gentle persuasion and patience it was successfully reconstructed, this did take a few days though.
The surface of the pot was also very powdery and every time it was moved or picked up it left a patch of orange powder behind. To stop further loss the pot had to be treated with a very dilute adhesive to help consolidate the surface, allowing it to be handled safely again.
When new the pot may not have looked orange, but white! There is evidence to suggest cremation vessels may have been coated on the outside in a white clay slip. The surface of our pot was too damaged unfortunately to say if that was the case here.
Was the pot an everyday storage jar selected to contain the cremated bones or was it made especially for the purpose? This question still intrigues archaeologists today, in the case of our pot the rim was badly damaged, but what survived was not the plain rim normally expected on domestic pottery, but a slightly indented, impractical frilly edge which might suggest it was especially made for the purpose. More evidence is required before we can be sure though.
The next stage is to excavate the soil block and retrieve the cremated bone and see if any objects were placed in the pot with the remains.
Archaeology Discovery Day
19 November 2013
,Tuesday 29th October saw many staff from Archaeology & Numismatics take over the Main Hall in National Museum Cardiff for our special half-term Discovery Day. We were overwhelmed with the positive response from all who visited us.
We wanted to give you an idea of a little of the vast range of work we do and see some hidden gems from our collections, which you might not otherwise get a chance to experience.
A special treat was one of our conservators, Penny Hill, working on a large Roman pot from the recent Caerleon excavations by Cardiff University. Normally the conservation work has to take place in a lab in our basement, but she managed to get this wonderful item upstairs for you to see the work being done on it. It was too fragile to be fully excavated in the field, so it was carefully lifted, mud and all, and brought to us. Penny was gently scraping off the centuries of dirt to reveal the pot and its contents of bone.
We're not usually so lucky as to have a pot so intact. Usually they are broken into numerous pieces, with eroded edges and not all present. It's like putting together a jigsaw, without the picture, lots of missing pieces, and with the existing pieces the wrong shape. Louise Mumford is also a conservator and brought along some replica pots to demonstrate how she works her magic on them. Our visitors learnt how to look for matching edges and assemble the pots. They also had advice on sticking back together their own broken treasures.
Siân, Jody, Mary, Julie and Alice led art activities based on pieces in our collection. Siân Iles' specialism is medieval pottery, and she brought out some lovely examples of medieval tiles from our stores. Our visitors were able to see the wonderful designs on them, and how they built up across a floor to form a larger pattern. They then coloured in their own section of a "floor tile" on paper, to form part of a larger pattern which we displayed and added to throughout the day.
Jody Deacon works with prehistoric artefacts, and Mary Davis is a conservator with a particular interest in the analysis of materials, especially Iron Age and Bronze Age metals. They brought out some designs from Iron Age coins, and talked about how they were decorate with the symbols and patterns which meant something to the people of the time. Our visitors used multi-coloured scratch card to make their own beautiful designs.
Julie Taylor does the admin for the section, and Alice Forward is with us for a year on a Community Archaeology placement. Julie is a textile artist in her spare time, and is interested in the memory of places. An archaeological excavation can be like digging up the ghosts of the past – a small trace of someone, a stain in the ground, an unclear, faint picture. Julie and Alice helped the visitors to make "ghost pictures" – the visitors chose an object from our Origins gallery to draw on acetate, which was then transferred to light-sensitive fabric, making an ephemeral image of what you had seen. We have a few pieces which were left behind, so if you see yours here and want it back, do call to collect it.
Del Elliott can normally be found helping you to use the Clore Discovery Gallery or as a Museum Assistant in the general exhibitions. He also volunteers with our handling collection in the Origins gallery. He used a model of the "Celtic Warrior Grave" to talk to the public about the burial traditions of the Iron Age, the artefacts found in the grave and how they have changed over time.
Evan Chapman works with our Roman archaeology, and also looks after the image archive in the department. Some of our earliest photographs only now exist on glass-plate negatives; extremely fragile and difficult for anyone to use. The Museum has received a grant from the Esmée Fairbairn foundation to enable us to digitise some of these negatives, and Evan brought along a wonderful presentation of old photographs of excavations in Cardiff Castle, Llanmelin Hillfort and Segontium, also an archive of Early Christian Monuments from Glamorgan.
Last but not least, Jackie Chadwick and Tony Daly are the A&N illustrators. Photographs are a very useful record, but often a great deal of detail exists in the artefacts which simply cannot be picked up by the lens. Jackie and Tony have produced some incredible drawings, showing such things as the subtle marks left in the manufacturing process and the texture of an item. They also play a large part in the interpretation of a site or object, by illustrating how a site may have looked or an object used, based on the complex archaeological evidence. The visitors could chat to them about the process, see some of their work, and have a go at making their own illustrations.
We could not have done the day without our fabulous volunteers. Kym, Luke and Ciaran generously gave up their time and worked so hard with us to run the activities. A huge thank you to all of you!
The day was a bit of a swan-song for the Origins gallery – the gallery will close in February next year and the collection prepared for the new displays planned for St Fagans National History Museum. Archaeology & Numismatics is now part of the larger History and Archaeology Department, and the new displays are intended to cover the prehistory and history of Wales at a single site.
Archaeology will still have a strong programme of events in this new structure – look out in the What's On guide for our regular series of lunchtime talks and Behind The Scenes tours. Another Discovery Day is on the cards during the CBA's Festival of British Archaeology next July, and we are planning a one-day conference for next autumn; dates to be confirmed.
If you want to volunteer with us, you can get in touch with the Museum's volunteer co-ordinator Ffion Davies.
We'd love to hear your thoughts – what did you think of the day, what would you like to see at the next one, what can we do better? Just comment below.

COLUMBUS (AP) -- About 55,000 Ohioans among the long-term unemployed are expected to lose jobless benefits soon because of the end of federally funded aid initiated several years ago.
The Columbus Dispatch reported workers who used up six months of state payments could get 73 more weeks of aid under a federal benefits program extended several times. Some advocates want Congress to extend it again.
Democratic Sen. Sherrod Brown wants an extension included if Congress makes a deal to avoid the automatic tax increases and spending cuts known as the "fiscal cliff." His spokeswoman says too many Ohioans are still looking for work.
The Ohio Department of Job and Family Services says nearly 134,000 workers get unemployment benefits. More than one-third of them receive federal benefits set to end Dec. 29.

The Hyde has an enduring vintage appeal that's weathered fickle trends and architectural changes. In fact, this classic door set has remained in production longer than any of our other antique door hardware styles.
A door set's ability to open smoothly, lock snugly, and keep working are details as important, if not more, than how it looks. We make them like they used to—to last—with crisply detailed forged brass backplates and doorknobs in porcelain, crystal, and solid brass.

Product Technologies / Benefits:
- Enameled Cast-Iron: Kohler Enameled Cast-Iron combines the strength, durability, and insulation benefits of cast-iron with the scratch, chip, and burn resistance of a baked, powder coat finish and comes with an exceptional Lifetime Limited Warranty. When these materials are combined it gives the sink or tub the strength to last a lifetime of use. Kohler Enameled Cast-Iron is also available in a wide variety of specialty colors allowing you to truly customize your home.
- Smart Divide: The basin divider is set to a lower height than perimeter of the sink; you gain the convenience of a single basin sink completely filled, without losing the functionality of a double basin sink. The lower divider also gives more room for working with larger pots and pans providing more access for filling and cleaning.

Kohler says to use undermount kit #5807 when undermounting this sink.

It might be the last time we can put her in a costume without her prior approval.
In this age of commercially-purchased costumes that replicate licensed characters, (a norm both girls flagrantly disregarded), we were asked more than once, "who is she?"
I entertained myself by answering, "a blonde Asian princess."
This girl nearly caused an identical incident to the scene created by the other girl last year. Fortunately, the woman infiltrating her space came bearing chocolate, and peace accords were hastily reached.
We went out in the neighborhood tonight: four kids, two parents, probably more than 100 houses. E had two friends over, and L was the little-girl tagalong. We saw four-year-olds being pushed in strollers but L walked the whole route. One of E's friends gave up under the weight of his bag, but L hauled her haul all the way home.
Nobody bother to tell that girl she's little. She wouldn't believe it anyway. She was fantastic, and she (and we) had a wonderful Halloween.

Mail Call
Contrary to expectations, she's turning out to be a quite good personal assistant. When I came home tonight she'd already sorted the mail.
"Would you mind going through it now?" she asked. "I have a date at 7:30."
"By all means," I said, settling myself into my armchair and taking up the chocolate milk (shaken, not stirred) that she had thoughtfully put out. "What have you got?"
"Elissa Meyrich sent you a cease and desist."
"Again? What is it this time?"
"She says she invented sheep in 1987 and you're violating her trademark. There's a handwritten postscript from Gregory Garvin that says something mean about your mama. What do you want me to do?"
"Send the usual response by return of post."
Dolores tapped a stamp reading "PISS OFF" into her inkpad and thunked it down on Ms. Meyrich's letter.
"Let's see...electric bill, postcard from somebody named Gervais who hopes you still remember Antwerp, an invitation to the Wet 'n' Wild Underwear Party at Cell Block–wait, that's for me– and a bill from your tailor for alterations. Oh, and Netflix sent you Emmanuelle at Stitches West."
"I don't remember putting that in my queue."
Dolores coughed. I made a mental note to change all my computer passwords.
"And you got a big fat package from Black Bunny Fibers. Sounds kinky."
What Carol Sent
Black Bunny Fibers is a new undertaking by a good friend, Carol, proprietress of the blog Go Knit in Your Hat. The lady has a way with fiber and she's decided to put it to good use. Wool for spinning, yarn for knitting, in colors too good to resist.
Here's what I got:
Until now, I've only spun the natural corriedale/montadale from Susan. When this slid out of the package, I couldn't resist the allure of that deep green (or the fact that she named the colorway after me) and so I pulled out a spare bobbin and got to it.
It's very different, spinning Wensleydale. The fibers are longer and silkier and not as tightly crimped. I kept thinking of mermaid hair as I was drafting. The change was mighty educational. I think I've finally grasped the differences between the woolen and worsted drafts, and I also tried spinning from the fold for the first time.
And this is what's come out so far:
I'm not in love with my spinning yet. But I'm falling hard for this fiber. Those greens, in sunlight, shine like emeralds. They're the deep, yellowy greens you find in William Morris textiles. (Excuse me as I break out in a sweat.)
I have this sinking feeling that Black Bunny is going be eating up a hefty portion of my monthly paycheck. If the damn sheep doesn't get me, the damn rabbit will.
Glencora Baby Shawl
I have finished the entire center of Glencora and begun knitting on a lace edging - Wave Lace from Heirloom Knitting. The jury is still out whether the green I picked for the edging is going to play nice with the yellow of the center. I'll post a picture later, when the edging is further along and doesn't look like an indeterminate pile of blech.
Look! A gay cowboy!

I'll take your word he's gay - he looks pretty good to me and Dolores.
- marie in florida said...
i love the scar on the back of The Cowboy's head!
- Liz said...
Just wait till you knit with the Wensleydale. There is nothing like it. The sheen is similar to silk, but there's a great halo of sorts once it blooms in the wash. I think you'll enjoy it Franklin.
- David said...
I could use a personal assistant. Maybe I should start hanging out at the 4-H Fairs.
- Joe said...
Funny cartoon, clever banter with Dolores, amazing spinning with gorgeous fiber AND a gay cowboy picture.
What else could a knit blog reader want (the clever cowpoker picture worked again)? - 12:14 PM

Your Emerald City singles are calling to me.
- rene said...
Wow, that's some beautiful green! I bet it will look fantastic knitted up.
BTW, I've been going back and reading your archives whilst bored at work, and I really enjoy your writing. :) - 12:45 PM
- Colleen said...
Those chaps are HAWT. Please tell me where to find him so I rip them off his butt.
- Emily said...
That blackbunnyfibers Carol certainly knows how to dye! I bought the charcoal sock yarn she had up (which arrived in the UK 3 days after I paid for it!) and it is the most beautiful yarn. Not sure if I can use it for socks - might have to be a scarf - yet it would make glorius socks....
- Holly @Home said...
The ratio of your mail doesn't look too good Franklin.I'm sure Dolores has always seen herself as a bossy P.R she'll be following you around..giving press conferences.
- Vivienne's Mum said...
Apropos nothing in particular, try this :
for Herdwicks in their natural habitat. And today you can see why the stout wool coats. - 1:21 PM
- Jennifer said...
The line about "Emmanuelle at Stitches" has me in stitches. I wonder if it's from the days Krista Allen went by Crista...like the letter change makes her a "legit" actress now. ;)
- Jax said...
Ah, Franklin, if I weren't married and you weren't gay, I'd have to whisk you away to England.
Ruskin(How's little Effie?), Morris, roving the precise shade of green that colors all of Possession... Sigh...you're just dreamy.
Did you visit the art museums while in Fort Worth, or was the attraction of all those cowboy butts just too strong to let you walk across the street from the coliseum? - 1:34 PM
- Stephen said...
Does the label on the wool saying "100% wool top" refer to you or Dolores?
- Lee Ann said...
It is entirely your fault that I've just begged Carol to make me Wensleydale in the Bloody Mary colourway.
Anyway. Absolutely gorgeous, and I've been dying to spin with Wensleydale. Now you've confirmed for me that it's a must-have fibre.
What shawl? ;-) - 1:40 PM
- Heather said...
Ahh, a sarcastic sheep, fiber porn and cute cowboys. You know how to draw in the readers! :D
- Sherry W said...
Hey Franklin!
Your really improved! I'm a rank novice and I just spun my first batch of fiber and it was Wensleydale. I agree it wasn't hard to handle.
I ordered some BFL from Carol earlier this week (I haunt her LYS), I'm so afraid I'm going to mess up her pretty roving. - 1:57 PM
- Joanne said...
Great yarn, hot cowboy. Are you SURE he's gay?? :-)
- Cheryl said...
Hmmm. somehow I imagined a gay cowboy to not have jeans on under his chaps...
maybe this is just a bi-cowboy. - 3:35 PM
- Fyberduck said...
mermaid hair... damn you for making it sound like that. Now I have to get some.
some good advice, tho, from an experienced addict - buy in bulk. it's cheaper overall, and you're stash will be big enough to always have something alluring ;) - 4:02 PM
- Lucia said...
There's the Yarn Pirate carrying on about her craft-supply fast, and I come over here and find you taunting me with Wensleydale. This is clearly a collaboration to drive me insane. (Shut up.)
- Zee said...
Yummy Wensleydale
yummy cowboy
No need for dessert! - 4:59 PM
- Mindy said...
Ooooh, that green looks fantastic. And that's some pretty fine spinning for not having done it long. You gotta watch out for Black Bunny- she's dangerous! (this is from experience- there are 3 rovings and a lace-weight tempting me from my counter- nevermind cooking dinner)
Quite efficient, isn't Delores? - 5:24 PM
- Ellen in Conn said...
How does one discern the sexual orientation of any particular cow-person?
- Franklin said...
The bull rider in the photograph was participating in a gay rodeo, so while that's not a 100% assurance by any means, it's usually a good clue ;-)
- Carol said...
Thanks, babe, you are such a sweetheart. LeeAnn -- I'm on it.
I was going to say that the lavender fringe on his chaps was one clue, but attendance at a gay rodeo is much less subtle. Only next time, Franklin, might I bother you to get more of his ass in the picture? - 6:20 PM
- Daisy said...
Hi Franklin,
A friend is contemplating raising sheep and I mentioned the miniature sheep you had rhapsodized about on your blog. We can't find that post now. Did I hallucinate that entry? Was it just a dream? - 7:01 PM
- Kathy Merrick said...
Excuse me, love, but isn't your acerbic roomy called "Dolores"?
As in "sorrows"?
Or do I have a brain tumor again?
I hate when that happens... - 8:16 PM
- Ann said...
Daisy, tell your friend to get himself to Maryland Sheep and Wool, and to visit the parade of sheep breeds, where he will see more types of sheep than are dreamt of in his philosophy. Tell him to avert his eyes as he goes in the gate, as there is usually a seller of Babydoll sheep there, and they are as cute as buttons. Otherwise, google either on Babydoll sheep or Old English Southdowns and you should find out more than you need to know about those cute things.
Also, if he's serious, have him check out the pre-festival classes on sheep care....I was going to say sheep husbandry but it sounded too kinky.
Personally, I'm thinking of bribing Dolores to swipe the finished green mermaid hair and mail it to me. I am SUCH a sucker for lovely green yarn. - 8:48 PM
- Linda said...
I adore the idea of a piss off stamp. It will keep me happy for years as I open my mail. The green is seductive and too beautiful for words. (I'm not usually a green lover, either.)
- A'tuin said...
I am so jealous. You are getting such good results from your spinning now. I still slub it sometimes, if you know what I mean.
Oh, and I wanted to ask a question about the link to freetobitchfreetostitch.org. Your link doesn't work--I get a cannot find server message. The bookmark I had doesn't work either. Do you know if something is up? - 11:12 AM
- Jon said...
Look! A gay cowboy in a rather provocative pose. Seems to me that I've seen that in a porn movie somewhere. Or, heard about it in a porn movie. Yeah, that's it.
What are we signing up for? There were only 3 classes of interest to me. - 11:47 AM
- Jax said...
Franklin, I just have to hear your opinion on one of the most important aesthetic questions in the art of cowboy watching: Wranglers or Levis?
- sahara said...
His chaps are FABULOUS! I wanna pair!

Louis Garneau Hat Covers

It's warm and it fits!
- Familiarity: I've used it several times
Finally, I found a head cover that fits my small head! Most of the one size fits all are huge. I also am so happy to find one with windstopper fabric that covers the ears as well as forehead (the windstopper fabric does affect my hearing a bit but I can still easily hear traffic and cars approaching). I also really like that this cover keeps my head very warm down to at least 30 F even though it is fairly thin...very easy to fit under a helmet. It's the perfect winter head cover.

Corned Beef Grilled Cheese Sandwich with Guinness Caramelized Onions
When I made the Guinness caramelized onions for the onion cheddar quiche I could not help but snack on a few of them before adding them to the quiche and I was immediately entranced by them! While I was slowly caramelizing the onions, images were flying through my head with all of the different ways that I could use them and I wanted to try them all! I was finding it difficult to decide exactly which dish to make when I had the idea of using them in a grilled cheese sandwich and I was sold! I was thinking that a corned beef grilled cheese sandwich would be perfect for St Patrick's Day and stuffing it with drunken caramelized onions would be a treat indeed! Given the use of the corned beef in this sandwich I was reminded another favourite, the reuben sandwich, and because of that I decided to go with a dark rye for the bread. Since I was seasoning the Guinness caramelized onions with Worcestershire sauce and grainy mustard, cheddar cheese only seemed natural to finish the sandwich off. Don't let the time required to caramelize the onions stop you from making one of these sandwiches as they are definitely worth the effort and otherwise really easy to make!
Fee free to really fill them up!

text: May 4, 1974 Dear. Mrs. Core: Glad to hear from you and I know how busy a "farmer" is at this time of year. I've lived on farm all my life, and until the labor conditions got so bad, I ran my farm and cattle, but at my age, I just cannot do it. Sold cattle and am renting my farm, so my only worry is seeing how the poor farmers are having to contend with rains--we plant cotton and so beans on most of the farms. A few are planting rice and one adjoins my farm. I get money rent in advance, but still want to see them make money. You mention the Mallet's as being up at A.P. They were like all these early settlers, all over, where ever there were settlers, many in south La. Paul Perthuis was from our lie of Perthuis, and he married Angelique LePine in south La. around Thibodeaux, there are lots of LePines, and Perthuis around that area. Married St. Par. 1778. (Colonial marriages by Winston Deville). The Pierre Perthuis who married Francour, was the other line, Nicholas was his father. Andre Olivo (beaux) married Marie Francoise Crevet, 1764. She was daughter of Nicholas Crevet and Marie Francoise Quebedeau - whose parents were Joseph Quebedeau and Marie Antoine Beau (from Kaskaskia Under French Regime) belting.

JE035: The Totodile Duel
this wiki
Here we go again. While heading toward Goldenrod City, Ash and co. encounter a Totodile and, while trying to catch it, Ash and Misty get into a bunch of arguments (Yeesh, why dosen't Ash marry Misty if they're gonna fight like an old married couple over everything?). After catching the Totodile with a Lure Ball Ash and Misty fight over it until Brock couldn't take it anymore, puts his foot down and takes the Lure Ball away from Ash and Misty. Brock decides the best way to determine who gets Totodile is a 3-on-3 Pokémon Battle. Who will win this time around? Will Misty add a new Water Pokémon to her collection, or will Ash get a replacement for Squirtle?
- This is the third "Ash vs. Misty" battle so far in the series. The first two were Ash's Gym Battle at the Cerulean Gym in IL007: The Water Flowers of Cerulean City and IL050: Who Gets to Keep Togepi?
- It is also the second time Pikachu refuses to battle Misty.
- This is one of the few episodes where one main character catches a Pokémon and another main character's Pokémon evolves.
- Misty uses Togepi for the first time in battle.
- Misty's Staryu uses a "Jump" attack. Jump was never an attack.
- Ash: "Hey."
Misty: "Uh."
Ash: "Which?"
Misty: "How do we tell which one's which?"
Brock: "I'm sure you can both work this out maturely."
Ash and Misty: "Well that one's definitely mine."
Ash and Misty grab the same Lure Ball.
Misty: "It's Mine!"
Ash: "It's Mine!"
Misty: "Let go!"
Ash: "You let go!"
Brock: "Ok, that's it!"
Brock takes the Lure ball with Totodile.
Brock: "I'll take custody of this for now."
- Brock: "It's obvious that neither one of you is gonna give up or give in, so that means there's only one fair way to decide which one of you gets to keep the Totodile."
Ash and Misty: "A Pokémon Battle!"

Apparently one guy, working part-time, has, in only a few months, gotten to the point where the teapot test runs.
Seriously fantastic work, Rob.

Pentax claims world's smallest and lightest interchangeable lens camera crown
Pentax has announced the first pocket-friendly interchangeable lens camera to sport its new bayonet lens mount. The company says that its Q mount is about a third less in diameter than the more familiar K-mount, thanks to a reduction in the distance from the lens mount surface to the image sensor and by tweaking the size of the lens image circle to be proportionate to the sensor. The Pentax Q also makes use of a compact camera-sized sensor and sacrifices the onboard optical viewfinder, mirror box, focusing plate and autofocus sensor to help keep proportions to a minimum - making it about the same size as my Umbra credit card case. Other features of note include a programmable dial on the front for quick access to frequently-used settings, the ability to shoot full high definition video and a built-in flash that can pop up to help reduce red-eye.

Midwest Living Review
Let's start by saying that Tonya's Patisserie isn't easy to find. A large tree blocks the sign, and it's inside a two-story home in a residential neighborhood. Here are a few clues to get you there: Across the street is a nice B&B that was converted from an old train station. A cute little winery known for its excellent blackberry wine stands catercorner from that. And downtown Chesterton stands within walking distance, full of boutiques, antiques stores, restaurants and art galleries. Once you find your way inside, you'll see a small, cozy dining room with a shabby-chic feel. The scent of fresh baked bread wafts throughout the room. It is a popular spot for book clubs, knitting groups and dinner parties of up to 20 people. Head chef and owner Tonya Deiotte opened the bakery in 2009. A handwritten menu changes weekly, but always boasts items such as sweet potato ravioli with brown-butter apples or fried green tomatoes on ciabatta drizzled with a balsamic reduction. If that sounds too adventurous, try the eggs Benedict or baked mac 'n' cheese. Portions are generous; entrees run $5 to $13. Though you can find vegetarian and vegan options on the menu, this is generally not a health food place. Butter is the name of the game. Desserts include sinful ganache bars, sweetly decorated cupcakes, tiramisu, big gooey cinnamon rolls and chocolate chip cookies.

Your secret to buying
"money machines" that pay out
hard cash year after year...
How to quietly amass a fortune -- in any type of market...
Building a long-term fortune -- through both up and down markets -- requires two simple steps:
- Buy the best dividend-paying stocks, and
- Reinvest the dividends
Do this and you've instantly built a money machine.
But don't just take my word for it. Here's the difference reinvesting dividends makes, according to Ibbotson Associates:
If you had invested $1,000 in large-cap companies back in 1925, you could sell them today for about $98,560.
But had you reinvested the dividends, you'd be sitting on more than $2,982,240. And that's assuming you didn't invest another dollar since.
At Motley Fool Income Investor, we call this income investing, and we believe it is...
The best way to secure your financial dreams
Buying and holding dividend-paying stocks is the most reliable way to achieve financial security and independence. The strategy is especially successful because:
- It's low risk. Since these companies pay out cash, investors are more willing to hold dividend stocks through bear markets. Therefore, they don't fall as far or as quickly as non-dividend stocks. In fact, they become a magnet for investors seeking security.
- It helps you avoid the Enrons of tomorrow. Dividends don't lie. For example, between 1997 and 2000, Enron's "earnings" rose 69% but dividends only rose 9%. That's a sure sign something fishy was going on. Paper profits can fool analysts, but cold hard cash can't be faked.
- It earns much better yields with lower taxes. Although Obama recently raised the dividend tax rate to 20% for individuals making more than $400,000 (or couples making more than $450,000) a year, most folks pay just 15% on dividends.
- By reinvesting dividends, you "dollar-cost average" and get the power of compounding automatically. It improves your portfolio's long-term returns by buying more shares when the price is low and helping your profits multiply.
- Dividend stocks trump non-dividend-payers, even in down markets. According to Standard & Poor's, during 2008's market meltdown, dividend-paying stocks came out over 6% ahead of non-dividend-payers.
But a dividend alone doesn't guarantee success
Need proof? Look no further than financial companies like Bank of America and General Electric, which had to drastically cut dividend payments during the downturn in 2008.
Which is why you need a trusted source that digs deep into a company's financial statements and runs through countless scenarios to make sure it can continue paying its dividend.
That's why The Motley Fool has dedicated an entire team of analysts to helping you find the best dividend-paying stocks.
Our team, led by dividend-investing expert James Early, logs countless hours researching and crunching numbers before recommending a company to Motley Fool Income Investor members.
And with much success -- here's a small sample of James Early's Motley Fool Income Investor winners:
Company | Return | Yield |
Magellan Midstream Partners | +848% | 2.8% |
+656% | 3.3% |
Enterprise Products Partners | +608% | 3.7% |
Returns as of July 15, 2014. |
These are the "money-makers" you need in your portfolio to safely generate long-term income -- and growth.
Each Motley Fool Income Investor monthly newsletter hands you:
- A New Dividend-Paying Stock Recommendation: The most opportunistic income opportunity you'll find anywhere in the investing world each and every month of the year.
- Timely Analysis of Our "Buy First" Stocks: There are 5 "buy first" stocks on our scorecard -- investments we advise every member to purchase because they're stocks we're confident we'll do well to own over the next decade -- and beyond! Each month, we update you with their latest news or earnings.
- Many Other Extras: Most months we'll invite fellow analysts to share stocks they like -- or unique strategies they're implementing in their portfolios. And it's all part of your member experience.
Plus, as a member, you'll also receive:
- Email Alerts: Weekly updates covering the latest news on our stocks -- earnings announcements, major developments, or even adjustments to our valuation.

And when you join Motley Fool Income Investor today, you'll also receive this fast-action bonus:

Again, the way to amass a fortune with your own "money machines" is to buy dividend-paying stocks and reinvest the dividends. And there's no better way to uncover the world's best dividend stocks than as a member of Motley Fool Income Investor.

Sarah Palin Blasts Media Not Just Bloggers
When asked in an interview with Sarah Palin on FoxTV, her first public interview after the election, if there were false allegations made that needed to be addressed, and Sarah Palin blames the media, with a minor slap against bloggers that is making the rounds of the blogosphere.
…if the media had taken one step further and investigated a little bit, not just gone on some blogger – probably sitting there in their parent's basement, wearing their pajamas, blogging some kind of gossip or lie regarding, for instance, the discussion of who is Trig's real mom…and that was in mainstream media, the question that was asked, instead of just coming to me and setting the record straight. And when I tried to correct that – that yeah, I'm truly Trig's mother – to take days for everything to have been corrected…
Rumors are flying around that she is attacking and judging bloggers. While she does make a sweeping generalization about bloggers, one that we bloggers deal with daily, her point is to actually take the media to task for using blogs as a source of fact and fiction. read more
