PIRACY on the high seas is finally being fought with modern technology. Faced with rising numbers of raids on their cargo shipsmainly in the waters of South-East AsiaJapanese shipping companies have decided that enough is enough.
Maritime piracy has been a scourge since the days of the Roman Empire, and the tools of the trade have hardly changed. The pirates' usual modus operandi is to pull alongside freighters at night and throw grappling hooks onto their deck rails.
The countermeasures are not much more sophisticated. When the Japanese icebreaker Shirase sailed for Antarctica last November, for example, its anti-piracy technology consisted of ropesto tie the doors shut as it passed through the main danger areas off Indonesiaand strategically placed hoses to wash down any pirates who ventured aboard.
But a five-fold increase in attacks against Japanese ships over the past four years has forced the industry to rethink. Last year ...

Joy of Israel – Holy City of Hebron and Sweet Southern Hebron Hills
You have been asking, you have been patiently waiting and now here it is.
With gratitude to G-d, my production partners at 12 Tribe Films and Chizuk Now we present Joy of Israel with Jamie Geller Episode #3: Hebron and the Southern Hebron Hills.
For a behind-the-scenes look at how this episode came to be, read on.
I had been to Israel about 10 times before making aliyah. And I lived here for over a year before making my way to Hebron for the first time in my entire life. For whatever reason it was just never on the itinerary of the synagogue trip, school sponsored semester abroad or mission I was part of.
When Chizuk Now contacted us about sponsoring this 3rd episode of Joy of Israel with Jamie Geller they had only one mission. They tasked us with filming a food and travel show set in Hebron to ensure this sacred city is both top of mind and a destination place for every tourist and resident of Israel.
Well I wasn't sure what to do. I mean I had never been to the place, didn't know what to expect. I began my research by taking my family on a tour with the famed Rabbi Simcha Hochbaum. He is known as Mr. Hebron. Literally everyone I called and spoke to said one name Rav Simcha and since all roads led to Rav Simcha I signed up for his weekly tour sponsored by the Hebron Fund.
The Hebron Fund raises money for the improvement of daily life of the approximately 90 families living in Hebron, it is because of the incredible sacrifice and determination of these 90 families that we are able to freely visit this 2nd holiest city in the world.
The Fund's support extends to funding for all parks, playgrounds, recreation centers, after-school programs, libraries, and summer youth activities; as well as sponsorship of public cultural and educational events in Hebron. In addition the Fund aids the maintenance and development of the synagogues in the Machpela Cave, the ancient Avraham Avinu Synagogue and other religious institutions in the area.
The hope of both the Hebron Fund and our video is to revive and expand the ancient Jewish custom of pilgrimage to this holy site.
Our tour with Rav Simcha was otherworldly. We were moved to tears in prayer and awe as he spoke about the past, present, and future of this small piece of real estate, the first piece of real estate bought by Abraham in Israel.
Hebron is intense and I have experienced my most incredible prayers since moving here at MaArat HaMachpela, The Tomb of the Patriarchs.
So it was clear that the sacred site, the MaArah would be the travel destination of our show, but what of the food? Hebron has a lovely little pizza shop where I enjoyed one of the BIGGEST and best cheese bourekas (my absolute weakness) but it felt like an insult to the holy city to hold a recipe tutorial in the shadow of the MaArah.
So I spent a day with my new and dear friend Eve Harrow a licensed Israeli Tour Guide who took me deep into the Southern Hills of Hebron on a scouting trip.
Listening to Eve was like listening to the most knowledgeable friend. She delivered incredible amounts of information in the most warm and friendly manner and taught me things with the excitement of a school girl experiencing it for the first time yet with the knowledge of an accomplished historian. Eve will show you parts of Israel you never knew existed. She will take you off the beaten path and let you discover the hidden treasures of our home.
After no less than 3 locations and a briefing on many others Eve helped me settle on the culinary guests featured in this episode; Holy Cacao, an artisanal bean to bar chocolate factory situated just 20 minutes south of Hebron and makers of my new sweet obsession.
I now yearn for Hebron on a regular basis and have been back no less than 4 times in the last few months. It's magical, it's special, it's important.
Watch a little behind the scenes clip here:
Thank you Chizuk Now, Rabbi Simcha Hochbaum, Rabbi Dan Rosensetin and The Hebron Fund, Eve Harow and Holy Cacao for sharing your time, knowledge, story and expertise in the making of this episode.

I don't know why, but its not working, it says the video is private and I really want to see it. I've been waiting for this for a really long time.
Can you please let us know what Hechsher the chocolate has? I can't find it on their website!
So excited to see this. Tried to make it there on our last trip and really hope to *actually* make it to Holy Cacao this time. We've enjoyed the bars several times in the States!
We have enjoyed Holy Cacao regularly in the US this year, through our subscription to a monthly gift box of Judea and Samaria products from levhaolam.com!! Yummy! And so fun to see where it comes from here in the video. My kids all shouted when they saw the chocolate packaging. Thanks for featuring them, Jamie and JoK! It is delish!
I've been to Chevron many times over the years — even over Shabbat — and it is a city like no other in the world. My first time was on my first trip during the 1970 -71 school year and even then, as now, it's kedushah seems to permeate every corner and every Jewish citizen there. May they continue to be strong.
I have enjoyed every one of your videos, the closest thing to visiting Israel for me. When your son said he was praying for Moshiach to come, I cried. The music from Moshav is wonderful, I listen to them every day! Thank you for taking the time to share with us.

After 10 years of dedicated service, Eskom Uganda Limited, the company that operates and maintains Nalubaale Hydro Power Plant and Kiira Dam near Jinja, has joined the prestigious list of ISO certified companies.
The landmark achievement was announced by Bureau Veritas Certification (Kenya) Ltd on November 1, last year. This was after the firm successfully implemented the Quality Management System (QMS), which is the benchmark for the ISO 9001:2008 international standards.
Besides, the company was awarded two other certifications, the ISO 14001:2004 under environmental conservation and the OHSAS 18001:2007 under safety of workers, all acquired on the same day.
The accolades will officially be handed over to the recipients today. This has come at a time when Eskom is celebrating 10 years of existence in April this year.
At Eskom, the three ISO certifications have since been internally termed as Safety, Health, Environment and Quality (SHEQ). ISO 9001 is a family of standards for quality management that is maintained by ISO, an international standards organisation and administered by accreditation and certification bodies.
According to Andrew Lumbuye, the Eskom human resources manager, successful implementation of the QMS reflects Eskom's commitment to achieving its goal of meeting the needs of its customers in a more comprehensive and efficient manner.
Lumbuye, who chaired the committee that co-ordinated efforts towards ISO certification notes that the company changed to the system after improving on the quality of service and product for their customers.
He says for the last 10 years, Eskom has continuously generated and supplied power to the national grid as per the concession and power purchase agreement between the company and the Government, thereby contributing towards reduction of load-shedding.
The firm actively supports the economy through recruitment of local manpower and other corporate social responsibility programmes.
"Under CSR, we help communities in a radius of 10km improve their health and promote education. We carry out tree planting exercises and also constructed a centre for war-affected people in Gulu," Lumbuye says.
He adds that Eskom trains university students, who need to learn about power generation at the plant and many people have benefited from this programme.
Lumbuye notes that after going through NOSA, the company's major focus was on improving the quality of their service. He adds that other than safety in the plant, they considered the kind of service their customer, Uganda Electricity Transmission Co. Ltd (UETCL) wanted, improved it and decided to go for the ISO 9001.
"We are offering services whose standards are internationally accepted. This means constant improvement and luckily, our staff have come on board to appreciate quality," he explains.
Benefits of the ISO certification
According to Patrick Kiryowa, the risk and compliance manager at Eskom, as an international certification system; ISO puts the company's programmes and activities on an international platform. He stresses that this gives them confidence to continue improving relations with their customers.
The road to attainment of the ISO recognition and certification was not without challenges, especially considering the fact that many were used to the NOSA system.
"A few of us knew about ISO and that alone created a gap in terms of inertia to change amongst staff. We had to preach to staff about the benefits of ISO compared to those of NOSA.
There was a challenge of developing policies and procedures' manual," Kiryowa explains. He says the process also needed a lot of expertise and as a result, three people had to be brought on board to assist in developing the ISO process.
Prior to the award, Kiryowa says the management system had to be re-visited so that the company could implement improved customer management and meet the requirements of the ISO 9001 standards.
Other constraints
Lumbuye notes that since water is a major requirement at the plants, whenever water levels decrease, power generation is consequently affected.
He says that the water hyacinth weed poses a great challenge at the two plants because it slows down power generation. Also, the concession the company has with the Government's Electricity Regulatory Authority needs to be reviewed.
Future plans
Eskom pledges to continue promoting environment conservation programmes with the objective to increase the country's natural vegetation cover in 40 years, so that human and industrial operations have less effect on the environment.
"We look forward to continue improving on various standards such as the integration to risk management ISO standard 31000, the standard on information technology all of which we have started pursuing," Kiryowa says.
Lumbuye is optimistic that UETCL and all electricity consumers across the country will get a better quality product as Eskom continues to meet the requirements of their customer.
He adds that they look forward to extending the concession agreement beyond the initial 20 years so that Eskom continues to operate and run the two plants.
Eskom hopes to engage the Government as the biggest stakeholder as far as refurbishment of the old plant, which is currently in bad shape, is concerned.
Also, high on the agenda is to ensure the company continuously complies with the ISO requirements like implementing internal auditing, training of internal auditors and review of requirement and procurement processes to meet the international standards.
Quality, safety are key at Eskom
Interview with Eskom Managing Director Nokwanda Mngeni
Where do we come from?
Eskom Uganda took over the operation and maintenance of Nalubaale and Kiira Power Stations in 2003. Nalubaale PS formerly Owen Falls Dam had been in existence since 1954 while Kiira had been opened in 1998.
During that period there was a Factories Act that guided how to handle issues of workers safety. Besides the fact that the law was deficient in many aspects, not much was being done to adhere to as evidenced by poor housekeeping practices and lack of appropriate systems to ensure that work was done safely.
When Eskom took over, there was evaluation of safety systems and we brought good practices borrowed from our parent company.
One of them was the cardinal rule principle, plant safety regulations. As such we decided to implement a South African model for safety called NOSA. In fact by the time we dropped it, we were at a four-star level, only remaining with one to be ranked a five-star work place.
However, NOSA is limited to only safety and environment and we wanted to broaden our scope to cover quality. NOSA does not have a global appeal as ISO. ISO was deemed a perfect fit. More
The journey to Eskom certification
Today Eskom, the power generation company responsible for operating the two government dams in Jinja, is celebrating ISO certification in three standards; ISO 9001:2004 for quality, ISO 14001:2008 for environment, and OHSAS 14001:2008 for safety and health.
These were attained in November last year. Until last year it has been a journey of Safety, Health and Environment (SHE), which changed when the company decided to include quality in the certification process to SHEQ. New Vision spoke to some of the key players in this journey and below is what they said. Click for more
Set to celebrate ten years
ESKOM Uganda Ltd (EUL) is set to mark its 10th anniversary this year after the successful refurbishment of the hydro electric power generation dams, in Jinja district.
"When we took over the management of the dams 10 years ago, the system was poor," says Nokwanda Mngeni, the Eskom managing director.
Today, after rigorous refurbishment of the power plant at the Nalubaale formerly Owen Falls and Kiira dams near Njeru town on the western bank of the River Nile, Eskom sources indicate a 94% perfect system. Read more

Chronic Medical Conditions
Chronic Medical Conditions
We understand that students with chronic medical conditions often have additional needs, and we at Student Health would like to take a proactive approach to help. Our role is to support the student and the student's primary physicians/medical providers.
Please send any applicable information to:
Phone (336) 841-4683
Fax: (336) 841-4693
email firstname.lastname@example.com.
It is extremely important that we have correct insurance information on file. We will forward this information to any outside medical office, laboratory testing facility, or imaging center to enable them to bill directly to insurance. This is for your convenience only. High Point University Student Health Services does not directly bill any private insurance except the policy offered by HPU. For more information, please see the Student Insurance page.
Medical Records/Information:
Often, the best first step in this process is to send medical information to HPU Student Health that will be added to your (student's) individualized electronic medical record in our clinic. This is completely voluntary and this information is protected under HIPAA and is strictly confidential. It will help our medical providers not only understand and anticipate specific needs, but will also facilitate better care for acute care needs. Helpful information can include but is not limited to diagnoses, current chronic medications and other treatments, allergies, and home physicians/medical providers contact information. When sending this information please make sure it includes not only the student's full name but also their date of birth and anticipated arrival to campus.
Medication Administration:
Ongoing treatment with injectable medication can often be done at Student Health Services. These cases are reviewed on an individual basis by the Medical Director. Medical records including information from the primary prescribing doctor regarding diagnosis, medication and dosage are required prior to approval. If administration is not possible in Student Health Services, we can assist in making arrangements to have this done at our local Cornerstone Infusion Clinic. This is located approximately 3-4 miles from campus. In most cases, student's medications cannot be stored at Student Health Services.
Allergy Injections:
Student Health Services does provide the service of administration of allergy serum from an outside Allergist. Medical records including dosage schedule and provider contact information must be reviewed by our staff prior to initiation of these services. Allergy serum can be stored at Student Health Services. For more information please see the Allergy Injection Administration page.
Laboratory Testing:
We have an on-site lab in student health and are able to obtain most laboratory testing in a timely manner. An order signed by a medical provider with the related diagnosis (ICD-9 code) is required for all laboratory testing and can be faxed to our clinic for convenience. The results are both reviewed by one of our providers and then sent directly to the ordering physician/medical provider. Students currently do not need an appointment for laboratory testing.
HPU Student Health Services does not have an onsite imaging available, but we do have excellent imaging facilities near campus. If a student has need for a follow up imaging study, an order for the study along with the related diagnosis (ICD-9 code) can be faxed to us, and we will help to arrange the ordered test. Routine x-rays do not require an appointment and can be done most days. CT and MRI scans are appointment only but we can usually arrange promptly.
Occasionally a significant chronic medical condition may warrant consideration of establishing care with a local specialist. This local specialist would work closely with and support the primary physician and their ongoing treatment plan. We are fortunate to have a wonderful local medical community who has provided excellent care for our students. Many of these providers are within the Cornerstone medical community and thus share an electronic record which leads to improved quality of care and lower cost for our students. Our role at student health is to help direct and facilitate these referrals. Please contact us with your specific needs and we will discuss all referral options and assist in arranging any necessary referral.
We also would like to invite you to visit us at Student Health to discuss any of this information along with campus and local resources available. No appointments are currently necessary. We are located in the lower level of Wilson Dormitory.

Nairobi — Learning in public schools throughout the country will remained paralysed for the third week starting Monday, after teachers defied pleas to call off their strike.
The Kenya National Union of Teachers chairman (KNUT) Wilson Sossion said teachers would not budge from their position, and told the government to stop what he termed as threats and instead "put money on the table."
He said the teachers were ready for negotiations, rebutting claims that they had refused calls for dialogue by the government on the matter.
"We have been invited to one meeting only since the strike began and we attended. Then we asked them, can you give us the money? They asked for some time out which lasted for almost the whole day. When they came back they said the money was there but we had to end the strike first," Sossion said. "That is putting the cart before the horse."
He maintained that the union was open for constructive dialogue saying the teachers were also concerned about students in public schools who continued to miss crucial studies.
"We want the government to tell Kenyans how much money have they put on the table as a show of commitment. Let them just even write a letter to the Teachers Service Commission tomorrow and send the money and we will end the strike immediately," Sossion said.
He was speaking after a meeting with a group of religious leaders in Nairobi, but remained hesitant to talk about the talks saying that "it was just a normal prayer meeting."
"The strike is still on and I would like all the teachers employed by the government to go on until their debt is paid. The teachers have the strike and the government has the money. So the teachers should be given the money and they drop the strike... simple exchange," Knut acting Secretary General Mudzo Nzili said.
Nzili maintained that the teachers will not be cowed by the threat of imprisonment or penalties and will continue their strike until the Sh47 billion owed to them is paid.
Attorney General Githu Muigai has already warned that the striking teachers that they risk jail terms and fines for defying a court order to resume teaching.

Living Off the Land
The Go-Getter: Rose Godfrey, 42, speech pathologist and farmer
Got Started in: Marysville, California
The Goal : To return to nature
The Gain : Cut $160 weekly grocery bill by two thirds, forged new bonds with family
I still remember the moment in June 2008 when I looked at my appointments book and thought, Wow. I have only two clients all month. I started my speech pathology practice in 1998 and gradually grew the business to 13 employees in three different offices. But by last year, people weren't paying for speech therapy the way they had been. For one thing, the insurance companies were tightening their belts, even denying reimbursement retroactively. I cut my own pay by 20 percent because I didn't want to let anyone on my staff go. My husband, Brian, who had worked in military intelligence for 22 years before staying home with our kids, tried to rejoin the workforce. But there were no jobs in his field. His job had been to process film from spy planes—it's a very niche profession.
We have 11 children in all, from 25 years to six months, although our oldest four are already on their own. But we couldn't live on anything less than what we were making. We've always been interested in food safety and in teaching the kids where their food comes from. We love fresh vegetables from small farms. I'd raised chickens while growing up in nearby Yuba City. So we wondered, What if we started farming?
We began with two pigs. When a local farmer suggested we get laying hens because there was a market for fresh eggs, our plan came together. Brian built coops with wheels so that we could move our chickens around on fresh grass over our seven acres of land. We acquired more animals. It was scary and stressful. What if no one bought anything?
But people did buy. The local farmer took eggs to sell to his customers, and today he purchases about 20 dozen a week from us. At farmers' markets in Yuba City, we sell out completely, earning $250 to $500 in a day. I once spent $160 a week on groceries; now I spend just $40 to $50 a week. Next year, the farm should gross about $40,000.
The children help out, which is crucial because our menagerie today includes 270 laying hens and 200 chickens. Sixteen-year-old Alyona waters and feeds the hens. Nine-year-old Bella, seven-year-old Sophia, and six-year-old Olivia milk the dairy goats and put out feed and water.
The speech therapy business is still alive, but I put in less than ten hours a week. I don't know what the future holds. I do know that on the farm, there is life, there is physically satisfying work, and our family has bonded. Our quality of life is so much better. I spend most of the day with my children, which I'm grateful for, and at night, I have the good feelings that come from working with my hands and doing something positive.

Europe and Cuba — "Same as it ever was"
Oh sure..sure. We're hearing and reading about all this "support" in Europe for the Damas en Blanco..blah..blah.
But here's where, to paraphrase Golden Earring, "The bullet MISSES the bone," here's the stuff that REALLY counts:
"The Cuba and Madrid Chambers of Commerce are meeting in Havana to boost economic and commercial relations among the two countries. Head of Cuban Chamber of Commerce Pedro Alvarez Borrego praised the progress made in the commercial exchange between Cuba and Spain.
As Keith Richards said: Talk (about Human Rights and such) is Cheap.

Apple cracks down over app data scandal
Both Apple and Twitter have changed their policies after Congressional complaints about unauthorized data harvesting by apps. In Apple's case, it's effectively admitted that simply trusting developers doesn't cut it.
The issue came to light when a user of the social networking app Path discovered the app had uploaded data from his iPhone address book without permission. Path apologized, but implied that grabbing address book details is effectively standard practice across the app industry.
As news of the case spread, it became clear that many major apps, particularly those relating to social networks, were accessing address book data, not always with permission.
That prompted Congress members Henry Waxman and George Butterfield to write an open letter to Apple chief Tim Cook to ask whether this was the case and if Apple's policies was sufficient.
Technically accessing such data without user permission was already a violation of the Apple terms and conditions. However, Apple has now conceded that waiting to deal with violations once they've happened isn't sufficient given the widespread abuse. Instead it's placing address book data in the same category as location data, which means that apps are physically blocked from accessing and uploading the information until they've displayed a prompt screen asking (and getting) explicit permission from the user.
Twitter already informs users that it will search iPhone contact lists to suggest following friends who have an account, but says it will now use clearer language to convey this information. The existing warnings do not make clear that Twitter takes a copy of all details in the address book and keeps it from 18 months.
While Apple's change of policy is welcome (if not overdue), it's only one step towards changing what appears to be a wider cultural problem by which app developers assume they have the right to grab any data they can unless explicitly prevented from doing so.

Castle Spoiler: "Still" Will Feature a Trip Down Memory Lane For Castle and Beckett
Season 5, Episode 22 of Castle, "Still," may have been delayed a week because of the Boston Marathon tragedy, but show creator Andrew Marlowe promises that the episode is one of the season's best — especially for all of you Caskett shippers!
Mr. Marlowe tells TVLine that the tense episode — which features Beckett mistakenly stepping on a pressure-sensitive bomb — will be full of crucial moments for Rick and Kate, even if we've already seen many of these moments before. Calling the episode "a great gift," Marlowe spilled that "Still" will include many clips from memorable scenes as well as "a couple moments for our fans to look forward to" in real-time.
In short, the Castle creator called Episode 22 "spectacular." However, because the episode was originally scheduled to air on April 22, it's important to note that some of the chronology may be slightly off, but for an hour of Caskett greatness we're willing to let it slide!
Are you looking forward to Season 5, Episode 22, "Still"? Share your thoughts below!

In an earlier post, I mentioned a technique for making a hybrid chipboard embellishment using a computer printed design, chipboard and embossing powder. Since I love chipboard embellishments (because they are not too chunky) but don't always have my printer ready to go, I considered another approach to this technique.
1. Cut a piece of chipboard slightly larger than your desired size.
2. Trace smooth white cardstock (doesn't have to be exact) and attach with adhesive tape.
3. Cover the white surface with washi tape and wrap around to the back.
4. Use a punch or die cut machine to create a shape from this striped piece.
5. Add word or letter stickers to create a sentiment like you would see on a chipboard or badge embellishment.
6. Apply embossing ink and powder. Shake off excess and use a heat gun to set.
Every year about this time I start thinking about the holidays. I'm always anxious to see what new Christmas lines the manufacturers will announce at the summer tradeshow! I really enjoy the process of hunting for and gathering supplies to complete a December Daily album.
I often get stuck, however, on the numbers. Purchased embellishments can be expensive and even if you found a set of numbers, they don't always have enough 1s and 2s to make it through the month!
This past year I set out to create my own embellishments using a variety of techniques. These are my favorites:
1. Layering stamps on cardstock - Use multiple colors of ink to create a visually interesting embellishment embellishment on simple kraft cardstock.
2. Embossed stamp on the foundation - While most of my stamped numbers were separate pieces, stamping in a defined area on your foundation creates the illusion of an embellished tag. Embossing with red ink and sparkle powder makes it special.
3. Layered tape and stickers - Adding washi tape, word stickers and foam letter stickers in a cluster eliminates the need for a more expensive dimensional embellishment.
4. Punched tag with dimensional stickers - I used an EK Success tag punch with kraft cardstock to create a foundation. I tied on a baker's twine bow and added white number stickers.
5. DIY chipboard embellishment - I printed the date with my photo printer, adhered it to chipboard and then used clear embossing powder on top. Here's a step-by-step tutorial.
You can see the full 2011 album on my blog for more ideas for numbers as well as the grid-based page design I used.
Have you ever made your own number embellishments?
Hello Ella friends, Grace here to share with you one of the many ways you can make your own handmade embellishments. PAPER PIECING has been around our crafting hobby since I can remember. It has has it's evolutions over the years from hand piecing to following templates to now, my favorite....using the die cut machine.
I love using my die cut machine to create layered pieces of paper that when adhered together creates an image that's truly handmade and super cute. Since we are coming into the fall season, I decided to show you my paper pieced apple accents that I've added to this layout....
as you can see, I made three and used it as a visual triangle for my layout. I love how with paper piecing, you can personalize your accents matching it with the color scheme and theme of your project. It's also a great way of using up scrap papers. As you can see, I was able to use a bit of white, read, lime green and green cardstocks. Handmade and recyclable...what more can you ask for?!
and because I had so much fun with making this accents, I made a slightly bigger one and added it to a bookmark...
I have found that with paper piecing projects, especially the ones that have small parts like the green itty bitty leaf in my apple, the right adhesive makes a big difference. My favorite with projects like these are the Xyron create-a-sticker machine. It only had a widthof 1.5" so it's really small but that's ok cause I can use my dry adhesive or glue stick for the big ones. With the Xryon adhesive, I am sure that all of the itty bitty cuts are covered with adhesive on the back side and I didn't even have to get my fingers icky sticky with liquid adhesive. I don't think I can create a paper pieced item without it!
and here again are the projects close together...
I hope you enjoyed my paper piecing share today and happy crafting.
- Grace

I love the adorable little lolly embellisments that I see everywhere, so I decided to create my OWN using scraps, toothpicks, a paper punch, and some "Liquid Glass" from Close To My Heart (Glossy Accents would also work).
First, punch out a couple of shapes using any shape you'd like! If you have a digital cutting machine, you could use that as well! Just imagine the different shape possibilities!
Next, cover the shape completely in a thick layer of the liquid glass. The thicker, then better!
Let the shapes dry for a few hours or overnight. You want them to be hard and set.
Snip the point end off of the toothpicks. This was just a personal preference and totally optional. Oh, by the way - wooden toothpicks work just as well! I just like the look of these white plastic toothpicks that I picked up at the local dollar store.
Adhere the toothpicks to the back of your lolly shapes and use them on your next scrapbook layout, card, or home decor piece! These are so fun to make, and you can make them in almost any shape or size.
Hello Ella fans, Grace here to share with you how I repurposed one of my scrapbook supplies.
I LOVE die cut shapes. There's just something about perfectly cut out shapes that I can create with a crank or a push of a button. But did you know that you can use those fancy shapes as masks as well? I'm here to share with you how I brought some new life to these die cut shapes…
First off, I picked out the shape that I wanted and used scraps of paper to cut out the frame die cut. Because I'm just using the shapes as masks, I didn't mind using scraps and non complimenting colors/designs for the shapes.
Then, I used some repositionable adhesive to add my frames in the spots I don't want mist to go on my page. Repositionable adhesive is vital to this project so that you can take out the adhesive later on and it won't leave adhesive residue on your project.
Next, I placed my white cardstock inside a box and picked the mists that I wanted on this page. I used two colors so that there's some variety on the mist colors. I set it aside to dry completely before continuing.
Once it's all dried, I pulled the frame off and it revealed perfectly white shapes in between all the misted areas. I love it!
To make the shapes stand out more, I added pen stitching around the inside of the shapes.
Then I started putting the page together. I first placed some paper strips around the cardstock to frame and ground my page, and then I matted my photos and added photo corners for my focal photo.
Then I added the title and handwritten journaling. I finished off the page with embellishments like rubons, chipboard, stickers and buttons.
And here's the final page again…
Thanks for letting me share with you one of my favorite ways to repurpose my supplies. Have a fantastic day!
Supplies Used:
Cardstock- WorldWin; Pattern papers, chipboard, stickers, rubons- Dear Lizzy, American Crafts; Mist- Maya Road; Clearsnap; Pen- Creative Memories; Die cut machine- Grand Calibur, Spellbinder's; Die cuts- Label's Eight, Spellbinder's; Adhesive- Glue Arts
I have a little secret. I am a misting virgin. Yes, I have seen it being done on many layouts. I have noticed the pretty bottles lined up on the shelves at my local scrapbook store. I have even BOUGHT some bottles of the glorious stuff...but have I used it? No. I guess I had some jitters about the whole thing. I was worried about wasting the mists, ruining my paper, and just generally making a mess of things.
Enter Ella Publishing's Spring Training Coach Nichol Magouirk! In just a short 12 minutes, she had me inspired and encouraged to give misting a try. I loved her fun video and how she showed me just how to use masks to created beautiful effects with my glimmer mists. I had never thought of creating my OWN masks, and I immediately went to work cutting out a mask on my Silhouette craft cutter on vinyl. I was going to DO this!!
I decided on a beautiful lace background shape from the Silhouette Store, and cut two pieces out of adhesive vinyl. While I was waiting for the intricate pattern to cut, I pulled together my papers and embellishments and planned out my page. I loved the idea of using a die cut shape as a mask to use with my mists. I hadn't thought of that, and it opened up a HUGE world of possibilities! If you are like me, you have a lot of die cut shapes, punches, etc to make quick work out of creating custom masks. Besides that, it felt a little "naughty" spraying mists all over my paper! I loved it! Here is what I came up with:
Am I a misting pro, now? I'd say 'no', but (and here is the important thing) I can't WAIT to try it again! I will definitely be getting out my mists for my next project. Thanks, Nichol!
Supplies: Tattered Angels "Peppermint Stick" Spray Mist, Becky Higgins Project Life 'Clementine' patterned paper, Silhouette shape "Grandma's tablecloth background", and various ribbons and bling from my stash.

Hello Ella Friends, I'm Ashley and am so happy to share a project with you today. I'm going to spring forward a bit and jump to Easter. Traditionally, the spring season exudes pastel hues, Easter eggs, and bunny rabbits. Inspired by those seasonal characteristics, I created this card.
Cards are so much fun to create and I try not to let the constraints of an envelope size place limits on my creativity. If a card is a bit too bulky for an envelope, I typically use a larger envelope or package it in a small box. If the card is being hand delivered, my favorite way to package it is in a glassine bag. Since it is a handmade card, I think it deserves the extra packaging and postage.
If you are interested in learning more about stamping embellishments, join me for in my video class at Miss Art's Paper Crafting School.
Thank you, Ella, for welcoming me into your blog home for the day and thanks Ella Friends for taking a peek at my project.

Hello Ella fans, Grace here to share with you a page I made which was inspired by the "Eight is Enough" ebook. I have to say that this was a daunting challenge for me as I like to layer my projects with all sorts of goodies and having limited myself to just eight products was a bit scary! But here's the result….
I started off with these products….
Supplies Used:
I Cardstock
3 Pattern papers from the Nantucket line of Pink Paislee
1 Letter sticker sheet from American Crafts
1 button pack from Fancy Pants Design
1 Baker's twine (stone color from Twinery)
1 Pen
After thinking the challenge through I realized that I would be able to remain true to my style if I pick more papers than anything else. I love the versatility of papers and with a few dimensional adhesives, I knew that I'd be able to come up with ways I can create my own embellishments with them. Because this is a 'boy' themed layout I also went with a more masculine color scheme and chose buttons for my accents.
One of the great ways to maximize your products, especially for a challenge like this is to cut out the inside portions of your big papers that you will be using for background or matting. I did just that with the yellow/beige diagonal striped paper. With this technique, I was able to use the leftover papers to make a small diamond box that housed one of my button and also the yellow strips that I placed by my title.
A few more techniques I did for this page…
1. When I was outlining the letters for my title, I goofed off on the "a" and got the pen line inside the letter. After I pulled off the bad "a", I realized that I liked the negative look on it so I peeled off two more stickers to make it a cohesive look.
2. I wanted to add that beige strip of paper in the middle over my red diagonal pattern but I didn't like the "flat" look of it so I crimpled the strip, added notches to both ends to mimic ribbon and created my own design by outlining the circles from my buttons. Fast, easy and cheap!
3. I like the look of machine stitching but because I have very limited supplies to work with, I just used my pen instead. I believe Pens are a great tool to use on any page. You can doodle with it, write your journaling and as you saw in my page, mimic machine stitching. The possibilities are endless.
To see a few more detailed shots of the layout, you can check my blog here.
Make sure to get a copy of the ebook "Eight is Enough" here. There are so many ideas and tips that you can get to making the most of your scrapbook supplies today.
Happy Crafting everyone.

No matter where you travel, plan ahead for health care when you're on the road.
Gay and lesbian teens are often targets of bullying, harassment, and aggression. Anti-gay bullying can range from verbal abuse, such as name-calling, to life-threatening physical assault.
Three kinds of prescription drugs are potentially addictive: opioids, tranquilizers, and stimulants.
While being a new Mom brings lots of joy, it also brings stress—something a crying baby can make worse. Better understanding why your baby cries can help you deal with this stress in a healthy way and help you avoid the most common form of child abuse: Shaken baby syndrome.
Many people think using smokeless tobacco is safer than smoking. Just because there's no smoke, doesn't mean it's safe.
Ecstasy, or MDMA -- also called "Adam," "E," or "XTC" on the street -- is a synthetic, mind-altering drug with hallucinogenic and amphetamine-like properties.
The way we gauge the peril a given disorder poses is called risk perception.
Rituals such as hand washing, counting, checking or cleaning are often performed in hope of preventing obsessive thoughts or making them go away. Performing these rituals, however, provides only temporary relief, and not performing them markedly increases anxiety. Left untreated, obsessions and the need to perform rituals can take over a person's life. OCD is often a chronic, relapsing illness.
As you probably already know, quitting smoking isn't easy. But, millions of other people have done it, and you can, too.
Research shows that adolescents who grow up with high self-esteem are far less likely to abuse drugs or drink, compared with children who grow up without much sense of self-worth.
Domestic violence is behavior someone uses to control a spouse, partner, date or elderly relative through fear and intimidation.
Seasonal affective disorder, a type of mood disorder, can occur in late fall to early winter or late spring to early summer.
People who are thinking about getting a tattoo should slow down and think twice.
Everybody knows smoking is bad for your health. Now here's something you may not know: Smoking is bad for your looks. It's true.
Alcohol is considered a drug because it depresses the central nervous system and can disrupt mental and motor skills, as well as damage internal organs when used excessively.
Organized sports for children offer obvious benefits such as physical fitness and sportsmanship, but did you know that a musical education program has many of the same benefits? Music education and participation in sports are both great ways to prepare your child for future success.
Studies show that long-term stress can damage brain cells, leading to depression. Depression is one of the most dangerous effects of stress in older people.
Tai chi is called a mind-body type of exercise because it combines meditation, focused breathing, and physical movement. Because it's also a low-impact exercise, it may be particularly well suited for older adults, but it's a beneficial exercise for people of all ages.
Suicide is the third leading cause of death in 15- to 24-year-olds. The strongest risk factors for attempted suicide in youth are depression, substance abuse, and aggressive or disruptive behaviors.
These fits of rage—the stomping, screaming, and falling on the floor—are a normal part of childhood development. Temper tantrums often occur only with a parent. They are a way for the child to communicate his or her feelings.
Laughter can do more than just put you in a good mood. It may buffer you against depression, reduce your stress, and improve your quality of life.
Too many young people are participating in a dangerous practice called binge drinking, or drinking to intoxication. It's defined as having five or more drinks in a row for men; for women, it's four-plus drinks in a row.
Knowing about marijuana can help you recognize its use in children and others and help a user seek treatment.
When people consider the cost of smoking, they usually focus on the cost of the cigarettes alone. But that's only the first step.

Texas might be better off without Yu
The Texas Rangers have other options if they are not able to sign Darvish
At some point between now and 5 p.m. ET next Wednesday, it will be known if Yu Darvish and the Texas Rangers have come to terms on a contract. And if the Rangers -- who have an exclusive negotiating window -- fail to come to terms on a deal, Darvish will return to the Nippon-Ham Fighters, and Texas doesn't have to pay a posting fee.
Rangers CEO Nolan Ryan said Thursday he is optimistic the team will come to an agreement with Darvish.
After all the hype surrounding the posting process, it would seem the failure to sign Darvish would be a disaster for the Rangers. However, because of the way the rest of the free agent market is set up, Texas might be better off if they don't make a deal with the talented right-hander.
To read the full story about why the Texas Rangers might be better off if the don't sign Japanese free agent Yu Darvish, become an ESPN Insider.

The American Package Museum
The American Package Museum has and extensive collection of package design from the early decades of the 20th century. Chewing gum, shaving cream, cereal boxes, and more-- there is a lot to check out there. Although the collection is just an online exhibit, there are 3D views of many of the objects so you can get a closer look. It's really fascinating and amusing to see the branding and design of the past. It just shows us how far design has come-- and in my opinion how simple and sharp package design used to be.

EVERY dollar in tax relief should trigger economic activity of between N$2 and N$3, Simonis Storm Securities economist James Cumming said yesterday.
Finance Minister Saara Kuugongelwa-Amadhila's tax reforms announced in the 2013-14 budget were the talking point at several budget analysis events since Tuesday night.
Not only will working Namibians have more money in their pockets because of new income-tax brackets, but those buying houses will also score from lower transfer duties. Calculations by Deloitte tax consultants show that someone buying a house of N$750 000 will save N$2 000 on transfer duties. On a house of N$1,8 million, the saving will be N$19 000.
Savings on lower income tax are equally significant. People earning N$180 000 per year will have N$1 150 more in their pockets every month.
Cumming said consumers spending more will mean they pay more value-added tax (VAT), which means more revenue for the government.
There is a downside to the tax breather though, economists warned.
"We expect that the increase in disposable income will reignite growth in consumption expenditure. However, the biggest drawback is the fact that Namibia has a strong import propensity, with between 60% to 70% of consumption being imported," IJG Namibia analyst Romé Mostert said.
"Resultantly, we expect to see a significant spike in imports, which will negatively impact Namibia's trade balance and put further pressure on foreign reserves. The increase in disposable income could also see a significant increase in instalment sales and mortgages," he said.
Kuugongelwa-Amadhila shared economists' concern and urged consumers not to waste their tax savings on non-productive goods. "Don't go and increase your credit limit at Edgars," the minister said yesterday during a panel discussion hosted by the Namibian Chamber of Commerce and Industry (NCCI), KPMG and Prime Focus.
Criticism aside, economists nevertheless welcomed the income-tax relief, the first since 2009.
Tax expert Gerda Brand of Deloitte urged Namibians to pay the taxman what is due to him and optimise Government's revenue from income tax.
"If you do the right thing, Government will be able to provide tax relief," Brand said at a budget breakfast hosted by FNB Namibia and Deloitte.
Analysts also took time to highlight what they regard as existing tax stumbling blocks hampering economic growth - one of them being the 25% withholding tax on services.
Withholding tax on services is tax charged when a non-resident businesses provide services to companies in Namibia. The local company is expected to subtract 25% of the fee charged by the non-resident provider and pay it over to the Receiver of Revenue. This obviously eats into the profit of the non-resident provider.
The current rate makes Namibia uncompetitive, analysts said. At the breakfast, British High Commissioner to Namibia Marianne Young told Kuugongelwa-Amadhila that the withholding tax issue features prominently in queries from UK investors, especially as Namibia becomes a popular oil and gas exploration destination.
The minister had good news in this regard. She said after consultation with the industry, Government realised that the rate is too high.
"In a short while we will come up with a new rate which is lower," Kuugongelwa-Amadhila said. She wouldn't elaborate further.
At a breakfast hosted by Ernst & Young, tax expert Cameron Kotzé called for the withholding tax on services rate to drop to at least 18%.
Kuugongelwa-Amadhila had a stern message for non-resident companies operating in Namibia, though. If paying withholding tax bothers them, they should simply register as Namibian companies and pay the same tax as other local companies, she said.
"There must be a [tax] contribution from everybody conducting business in Namibia, otherwise the playing field is not level," Kuugongelwa-Amadhila said.
She was equally firm about the export levy to be introduced - another tax that will discourage investors, especially in the mining sector, economists fear.
Kuugongelwa-Amadhila said the export levy, with a maximum rate of 2%, will be charged according to the value added to a product before export. The more value added, the less the export levy.
The minister said she wasn't convinced by big foreign companies' argument that they can add value to materials produced in Namibia, while many of them have subsidiaries in other countries where they add value to their product.

It's snowing lightly and a slight breeze is blowing down the valley this morning. It's 22-degrees on my thermometer. Fay said it was 26 at her house. It's always a bit colder in this valley.
Fay was telling me about more wrecks at the bridge that happened last week. It must have been Thursday because I went to Frankfort on Wednesday morning and there was no signs of them. It seems a van with a lady driving hit some black ice and slid off the road into the creek at the end of the bridge.
In the early 1900's they visited Owen County homes traveling by horseback or horse and buggy over dirt-packed roads that were enveloped in snow during the winter and turned into quagmires during spring.
There's been a lot going on this week, some good and some not so good. We'll start with the bad news.
Teri came to do laundry on Wednesday. I was in the sun room and she was on the other end of the house in the back hall where the laundry is. She kept telling me she smelled smoke. John came in a little while after she got here and he was also complaining of smelling smoke. Of course, I haven't smelled anything since I turned 75, so I hadn't paid any attention to it, but they were right. One could see smoke hanging in the air in the living room.
The tiny-waisted dress cascades to the floor in sheer delightful layers of light blue. The mannequin which highlights this elegant piece stands on the second floor of the Owen County Historical Society Museum and displays this poignant reminder of love, courtship and marriage.
In many ways these words serve as a poignant reminder of the life of former Owen County High School band director, Marvin Stewart. His love of music touched not only Owen county children but also made an impact on thousands of people he met both in this country and around the world.
I seem to always start with corrections. This week is no different. Joel's trip to Italy wasn't delayed by bad weather in the states, it was held up in Italy because the plane they were to fly home in had a missing part in the tail section of the plane.
For 90 years they have nestled against the home of Monterey resident Margaret Murphy. Over time the elements pummeled their surface in an attempt to claim them, yet the mill stones of Branham's mill have survived; and their presence reflects the enduring history of Owen County grist mills.
Today the scope of the landscape has changed. The few remaining large family farms stand as sentinels serenely as Canby grows, offering newcomers a chance to settle amid the rolling hills of Owen County.
Sylvia Perkins is a lot like Canby. She has lived in the community most of her life; and though age has slowed her a bit, her steadfast presence remains as an unmoving witness to the ageless nobility of land and people.
It's 29 degrees on the Branch this morning, but the weatherman says we'll have a couple more days of pleasant weather before the bottom drops out of the thermometer.

Rated 5 out of 5Â by mrjones very nice jeans I usually take 29 but mostly 30 in FP but after reading the reviews ordered a 30 and 31. Sent both of those back and ordered a 29. They still won't be a tight fit. Lovely print, lightweight fabric. 8.10.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by FPME01 Flora rise skinny I was afraid the floral patterns would be too much for me but it's actually pretty, colors are very soft. It's true to size, I'm 5" and 120 pounds and my 27 fits perfect, makes my thighs look slimmer. On me it doesn't look as crop like it does on the model but if I want to I can have it tailored but I'll keep it the way it is, it Looks like skinny jeans! 9.20.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by juliekinlock1 im in love ive just received them and im already in love the look fantastic I must say they are very slimming as well another winner from free people 9.8.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by AshleyEC Best jeans I've ever had! I'm absolutely in love with these pants. The colors & print are so interesting and I'm pleased to find them less washed out looking then in the pictures. They look great with almost everything in my closet, you can pair them with almost anything. I am 5'1, 105 lbs and the size 26 fit perfect. Since I'm on the shorter side, the pants do not look cropped (like the model), but come perfectly to my ankles as if they were tailored to fit. Plus, I can still get the cropped look by cuffing them. I highly recommend these pants for anyone short! You won't need to get them tailored!!!! 8.20.2014
Rated 5 out of 5Â by Mapsoot Perfection The most fabulous jeans I have tried on in years. I love the higher waist, which lengthens my legs, they are exactly like the picture... er not my legs unfortunately. Although I have said they are true to size it depends on just how tight you like your jeans, I like a little wiggle room. So I sized up 2 sizes, need only have sized up 1 size which I do recommend however they have just enough stretch without looking like ghastly jeggings!!, I will keep these as they are soooo comfortable. They have a real antique finish. I am thinking of buying another pair in case these break and before they all go, cant believe there hasn't been a rush on these - love, love, love thank you Free people they are definitely worth the price. 7.20.2014
Rated 5 out of 5 by islandstyle Love love love Why aren't more people buying this? These pants are so unusual⦠outstanding yet subtle. The muted colors of the print give an antique tapestry effect, yet they're light and easy to wear. They will pair with almost any color or style of top. And they're slimming too! Price is high, but I'll be wearing my money's worth out of these! 5.17.2014
