Food = Love letterpress poster ($40) over the bar in my living room.
I thought Valentine's Day would be a good day to share a little sneak peek of a love-themed project my friend Katherine and I have cooking up in a letterpress studio in Brooklyn.
Food = Love letterpress poster ($40) over the bar in my living room.
I thought Valentine's Day would be a good day to share a little sneak peek of a love-themed project my friend Katherine and I have cooking up in a letterpress studio in Brooklyn.
As the dark afternoons start to get me down I turn to two things; buying amaryllis plants (I love watching them grow and bloom in this darkest season) and planning my advent calendars. Before I had a kiddo I'd make them for all the ladies in my life. Now, Alex is the sole beneficiary of my Advent love. Last year I made an advent calendar from stripped paper bags from In The Clear — Alex loved it (so did Martha Stewart!). I'm gearing up to do it again this year. The hardest part is finding cheap toys — last year I scored at a used toy sale in Westchester. This year I'm going to use stickers and some Etsy finds plus some small $1 toys from my favorite West Side Kids.
If Alex was a little older, Garnet Hill sells a set of 25 stocking stuffers that would be perfect for this project for $36.
I saw this awesome Star Wars themed Advent Calendar and thought of an older kid I know who would love this!
I'm really getting into the holiday this year (maybe because the sleep exhaustion of a new born is fading!). I made Alex an advent calendar and am really looking forward to the next 26 days. I used red and white striped bags from Etsy seller In The Clear ($7.50 for 50 bags) and stick on numbers from Staples. Inside the bags are a variety of small toys and stickers. Most of the toys came from a great used toy and book sale in Westchester of all places. I think I spent $5 dollars on the toys and $5 on stickers.
I'm longing for a nap right about now. It almost goes without saying, but hosting Christmas in NYC when you have a six month old baby = exhausting. However, traveling with said child would have been murder, so, I think we came out ahead.
Due to a lost baggage nightmare, the stockings my mother had made for our Christmas went to Washington-Buffalo-Philadelphia-Tampa before finally landing in Laguadia, at midnight on Christmas. This necessitated some quick sewing on my part; using some Josef Frank fabric ($5 at a Brunschwig and Fils sample sale) I had squirreled away in my fabric stash. I used this great (free! printable!) pattern from The Purl Bee. I really like how festive and modern they look. Hope everyone is staying warm and dry.
Orange is going to my color in 2010. I really want this and this as a start. I've been rocking red (see: glasses, clogs, computer cases) for a decade and just feel the winds of change blowing. Proof point: instead of red amaryllis, this year I busted out kumquat and oranges arrangements for our tree trimming party this past weekend. See my inspiration, above, from Martha Stewart Living a few years back and my own arrangement below. The arrangement cost about $25 — I bought the kumquats at my local deli for $20 (and yes, one of the joys of NYC is being able to buy kumquats at your local deli), and the apothecary jars were $10 each at TJ Maxx. If you don't have a TJMaxx handy you can buy these apothecary jars for $27 each. I snipped some pine off my tree to use as greenery (the Martha folks used eucalyptus) and like how it looks.
I love glittered reindeer, but at $17 dollars each, they fall into the category of Christmas decorations I somehow never get around to actually buying. Thanks to a genius tip from my neighbor Stephanie, I bought two toy reindeer at Michaels ($4) and with some Aleen's Tacky Glue ($1.59) + a small sponge brush (.59 cents) + some Martha Stewart silver glitter ($5) + some dried moss, I created a mini winter wonderland in under 10 minutes. The display case is vintage and a total ebay folly — I got into a bidding war last year and spent much more than I had planned ($70 bucks!). I'm glad to finally have found a use for it. Anyway, I use the search term "antique glass front box" and you can find similar ones here. I particularly like this one (currently $62).
Growing up we had an easter egg tree just like this.
We decorated eggs the Ukrainian way, with a kit that looked JUST like this one. (Thanks, Kotori!)
Then, I spied these easter eggs, decorated with natural dyes (Thanks, Mint!)
And these too!
Finally, loving this way to recycle men's ties via LMNOP
I happened to find two vintage wooden picture frames in the trash outside my building (this never happens to me in NYC) and so am going to transform them into bulletin boards for two lucky ladies in my life this Christmas. Cost: Roll of cork (around $11 a roll at Staples — you can get about three bulletin boards out of a single roll), foam core backing ($5) and duct tape ($0 since I have an almost endless supply).
These two cuties from Martha Stewart are made from old sweaters (cost: given that I've been saving a couple of Tim's for a project like this: ZERO). These I have in mind for my friends with new babies. The complete how-to is found here. More handmade ideas here.
I'm still thinking about managing photos and am taking a stab at some of your great suggestions in an attempt to get the situation under control. The first step is pulling the close to 1,000 images off my camera's memory card and organizing them into folder by month (great suggestion from Kate). I'm still trying to figure out if it is worth doing a separate Flickr for personal shots. But in the process I discovered that Tim took some action shots of me quilting on our dinning room table and I just thought they were a) cute and b) you can see my brand new hair cut!
Here is a shot of the finished quilt (with its beautiful lavender border) which I sent to C. yesterday. Major congratulations are in order as she delivered her beautiful baby girl yesterday morning at 11am!
Ta da! Here is the almost finished baby quilt I've been working on. I finished free motion quilting the quilt last night (and boy am I sore today!). Free motion quilting means that instead of sewing in straight lines you move the fabric in organic, rolling lines. I've never done free motion quilting before and was really proud of myself for figuring it out. I just have to bind it and in the mail it goes to C. I think my favorite part is the strips of her father and her husband's dress shirts bound into the backing. PS This is the quilt that inspired it all. Alissa was so nice and answered lots of my silly quilting questions. She has a great sewing blog with lots of great projects.
This is one of my favorite DIY projects I've seen in a while and a really nice way to personalize cheap frames (and use up that fabric stash!). I'd love to do this with IKEA wooden frames and rad vintage fabric (or wallpaper, actually). Someday I'll get around to doing this….. Has anyone tried this? Any tips?
A dear dear friend is having a baby in early October and I'm sewing a baby quilt for her! I've only made one quilt before, so its been an adventure, but a fun one. I'm so much more disciplined than I was last time I quilted, which has sort of made me feel like a grown up.
I bought these fabrics at Purl Patchwork where they were so nice and so helpful. Also, the prices are pretty fair, especially when you factor in shipping costs. In addition to the fabrics above, I'm quilting in old dress shirts from her father and husband as a way to fit an extra bit of love into the quilt. The photo below is the quilt that I'm basing my design on. I'll post it when I'm done, of course!
Oh and this Alexander Henry fabric, "Zoo" is what I'm using on the back.

House adopts resolution establishing panel to study bringing cruise ships to South Texas
CORPUS CHRISTI - Lawmakers on Thursday adopted a resolution establishing an interim committee to study the economic impact of bringing cruise ships to South Texas ports.
Senate Concurrent Resolution 5, authored by Sen. Juan "Chuy" Hinojosa, D-McAllen, and sponsored in the House by Rep. Todd Hunter, R-Corpus Christi, establishes a Senate committee that will interview experts, gather data and talk to voters and local leaders between legislative sessions.
In-depth, interim studies are a fixture in the Texas legislative process because of the limited schedule lawmakers have to conduct regular business.
The committee would report its findings at the beginning of the 83rd Legislative session in 2013. Members have yet to be selected.
A port-funded study in 2005 showed several obstacles to luring a cruise line to South Texas ports.
The study suggested Ingleside as the best possible choice, but a lack of interest from major cruise lines tabled the discussion.
Hinojosa and Hunter said the potential for jobs and long-term revenue for local economies make the interim study worthwhile despite a state budget deficit.
"Texas should always be proactive about jobs, regardless of the economic climate," Hinojosa said during a January ceremony on board the Lexington Museum on the Bay to introduce the bill.
"What better time than now?" Hunter said after the January ceremony. "We are taking a regional approach and will seek local input, so we believe the timing is right."
The two senior lawmakers introduced similar legislation last session, where it died before being assigned to a committee.

Do you all think I could find a GTX 280 at that price? Lowest I found new was $300 or used for $275.
My 260 works great as a blu-ray equipped HTPC. Using PowerDVD 8. I'm using a sound card, though, so I can't speak for the HDMI audio.

$12 Trillion of Difference
Feb 28, 2011, Vol. 16, No. 23 • By STEPHEN F. HAYES
In 1968, George Wallace groused, "There's not a dime's worth of difference between the Republicans and Democrats." No one would say that anymore. Today, the difference between the parties is worth $12 trillion.
Now, Democrats are the party of profligacy, and Republicans the party of fiscal responsibility. If there were any doubts about this new reality, they should have been dispelled by the events of the momentous week from February 11 to February 18, 2011.
On Friday, February 11, Indiana governor Mitch Daniels addressed the Conservative Political Action Conference in Washington, D.C. In a long and meaty speech, Daniels implored conservatives to embrace "fundamental change" and begin work on the only thing that will allow the United States to reverse its steep plunge into insolvency: entitlement reform. "We know what the basic elements must be," Daniels said:
That Daniels chose to address entitlement reform in his speech is encouraging. That he offered specific proposals—means testing, adjusting the eligibility age, Medicare vouchers—is important. That he did so not only as the governor of Indiana but as a possible 2012 presidential candidate is remarkable.
For years, politicians have warned in apocalyptic terms about the growing national debt. But most of those willing to propose solutions have been former politicians operating from the safe confines of a commission or college campus.
But Daniels says our fiscal situation is so dire that avoiding the topic is no longer an option. And the current occupant of the White House, he notes, is not interested in making these tough choices.
President Obama confirmed as much when he presented his 2012 budget proposal on Monday, February 14. Not only did the budget include new funding for pet Obama priorities—$53 billion for high-speed rail—it didn't touch entitlements. Under the White House's plan, the federal government would spend $3.819 trillion in 2012—$1.645 trillion more than it would take in. When Obama was elected, the public debt totaled $6.3 trillion. By the end of his first term, it will have nearly doubled, to $11.9 trillion.
The White House was roundly criticized for its unseriousness, prompting the president to hold a press conference to quiet his critics. It didn't work. Obama explained that addressing entitlements would require Republicans and Democrats to come together and set politics aside in favor of real solutions—precisely what his bipartisan deficit commission had done, only to have its recommendations ignored.
Monday evening, at a well-attended whip meeting for House Republicans, California representative Kevin McCarthy, the majority whip, announced to his colleagues that the leadership had decided to embrace entitlement reform. On Tuesday, the leadership released a statement promising to lead where President Obama had failed to do so. The GOP budget, they wrote, "will include real entitlement reforms so that we can have a conversation with the American people about the challenges we face and the need to chart a new path to prosperity."
As a practical matter, this meant that Paul Ryan, the chairman of the House Budget Committee, would be allowed to include entitlements in his 2012 budget, due out later this spring. As a political matter, House Republicans had decided to touch the untouchable—a courageous decision that carries high risk.
They did not make the decision lightly. Ryan had been engaged in discussions with GOP leadership—and pollsters, political strategists, policy experts, and budget mavens—since November's election. Several pollsters advised against tackling entitlements before the 2012 presidential election, and House GOP leaders were nervous.

2001 Chevrolet Malibu Q&A
2001 Chevrolet Malibu Question: Car won't start, battery has juice but nothing when I turn the key
I think it is the ignition..had part of it fixed a couple of years ago and was told the other will likely go as well. Anti theft is connected to the ignition... Phoned and was told it would be $400.00+ to repair. Is there anyway to have this done cheaper...I'm on foot until I can get this fixed. - Kitch
Answer 1
Proper testing needs to be done, you don't want to start out with just an idea of what may be wrong because that could result in parts being replaced that are not causing the problem. If you have a voltmeter, (or a test light) can you measure for power to both sides of all of the fuses? (Headlamp fuses excluded unless you turnm the headlights on) Can you have someone check for codes? If this is a security issue the theft light should be on or blinking and that would result in a code setting. Even though you see power you could try jumping this, (connect the negative lead right to the engine) and see if that helps. - cardocIII

Zubaz pic via the Chicago Cubs. The 2013 Chicago Cubs have the potential for another dreadful season, which means the futility will continue for the storied franchise yet another year, but that shouldn't stop fans from coming out to Wrigley Field to cheer them on as they quickly plummet to the basement of the NL Central. At the very least Cubbies supporters should make their way to the ballpark for the September 23 game against the Pirates. Not only will ticket holders get to see budding Pirates star Andrew McCutchen, but they'll also get to partake in what may possibly be the MLB giveaway of the year—nay, of the century—when the Cubs will hold their inaugural Zubaz Night, aka Zubazpalooza 2013. With their special event ticket fans in attendance will get a pair of the Zubaz pants in Chicago Cubs colors picture above, which are perfect for lounging around the house, embarrassing your kids when they have friends over, or wearing the next time you time travel back to the early 90s. But seriously though, I'm betting that with the wonderful cross-section of humanity that graces the bleachers during a typical Cubs game, September 23 might be the only night the product in the stands looks worse than the product on the field. [Big League Stew] The post Zubazpalooza 2013 may be the only reason to go to a Cubs game this season appeared first on Last Angry Fan.

I will smash your face into a car windshield and then take your mother, Dorothy Mantooth, out to a nice seafood dinner and never call her again!
Tell me about it, this morning, I woke up and I shit a squirrel, but what I can't get is the damn thing is still alive. So now, I've got a shit covered squirrel running around my office and I don't know what to name it.
A couple of things from a buckeye perspective
125 - For some reason I have a feeling that Nikko Triggas will make some noise this year for the buckeyes. I don't think he has much for the top three, but a 5th or 6th finish at bigtens is what I'm hoping for.
133 - Johnny has TJ Enright for the Bucks. I'm expecting Reece Humphrey to be the buckeye's representative at that weight by the end of the season. TJ's solid when he's healthy, but his knees just seem to constantly be hurting, which is why I'm going with Humphrey. But until I see how much he's improved in his red-shirt year, I'd say 5th is about right.
157 - Johnny has Ryan Needle....he's no longer a buckeye. It'll probably be Jason Johnstone. However, the word on the local boards is that Nemec or Sponseller might cut down to challenge for the spot.
165 - From what I'm hearing it'll probably end up being Sponseller here and the kid is a stud. No one will challenge Perry, but Colt could end up in the top 4 here.
Oh, and I think Johnny is the only person that isn't a buckeye that has picked Palmer to finish ahead of Metcalf. Not a bad pick in my book, but then I'm a Palmer fan.
If I were a betting man though....I'd switch Palmer's and Jaggers' placements.
Gophers Go:
125 Ness 1
133 Reiter 2
141 Manny 3
165 Glasser 4
174 Dretsch 2
184 Kish 1
197 Eidensheink 6
Hwt Nord/Berhow 5th
Even that is assuming that somene like Mack, Manny, CP or Dretsch couldn't pull off an upset and win Big Tens like Mack and CP have already done.
I don't think its a big stretch to get where Jensens is with his picks. Alot of good things have to happen but I think I have almost a worst case scenario put together here and its still a Big Ten romp if that happens.
"Light travels faster than sound. This is why some people appear bright until they speak."
watch out for ohio state. coach ryan will have them ready.
"7. Ryan Needle Senior Ohio State"
A blast from the past. After one season on TOSU bench (or maybe redshirted), I think he went to a PA, somewhere.
At OSU the wrestle-off for 157 will be between Sean Nemec and Jason Johnstone. If Nemec wins, no red-shirt. He starts. And qualifies for the NCAAs, IMO, provided the surgery really was as successful as we are hearing.

Click here to view your Craft Projects.
Use those old hair scrunchies to make a different kind of craft. Make a tree out of old hair products. This makes for great crafting with kids projects.
- STYROFOAM* Brand Products:
- 2- 9" Cone
- Wooden skewer
- Thick, white craft glue
- 2 Fabric, 12" square
- Stiff brush
- Metallic chenille stem
- Insert wooden skewer into the bottom of the cone; this will serve as your handle. Brush a thin layer of glue over entire cone, except for bottom. Wrap square of fabric around cone, gluing over lapping ends. Ignore fabric point at the top of the cone. Trim away all but 1" of fabric around bottom of cone; glue excess fabric to bottom of cone. Remove skewer.
- Using skewer, push fabric point at the top of the cone into the cone. Place glue on ends of chenille stem and insert ends into hole. Shape chenille stem into desired decoration (we made a heart and a star).
- Place scrunchies on the cone, with larger sizes at the base and smaller sizes at the top.

Nemours pediatric epileptologist Raj Sheth, MD, medical director of the Level 4 Pediatric Epilepsy Center at Wolfson Children's Hospital, explains: "Because of Malichi's lack of response to medications and dietary changes over the years, the team recommended surgical intervention."
UF-Jacksonville pediatric neurosurgeon Philipp Aldana, MD, medical director of the Lucy Gooding Children's Neurosurgery Center at Wolfson Children's Hospital, started with the placement of a vagus nerve stimulator. "This is a small pacemaker-like device that is surgically implanted below the skin on the upper chest," says Dr. Aldana. " It delivers a small, steady electrical current to the vagus nerve, the large nerve in the neck that leads directly into the brain. The goal was to reduce the number of seizures Malichi was having, if possible."
Unfortunately, the stimulator did not significantly impact Malichi's seizures, so the team recommended epilepsy surgery to Christina and Troy Bell. "It took us a while to come to terms with this and decide to do it," says Christina. "We were worried about all the things that could happen during surgery, but we got to the point where he was having hundreds of seaizures and day and we knew it was always going to be this way if we didn't proceed. He was getting hurt because of the drop attacks, which happened multiple times a day, and he had no quality of life, so we had to overcome our fears."
On October 24, 2013, Dr. Aldana and UF-Jacksonville pediatric neurosurgeon Alexandra Beier, DO, performed a type of epilepsy surgery on Malichi called corpus callostomy at Wolfson Children's Hospital. "We went in between the two halves of the brain and disconnected the corpus collosum, the fiber bundle that connects the left and right side of the cerebral hemispheres," says Dr. Aldana. "In a case like Malichi's where he's severely affected by cerebral palsy and seizures, the disconnection actually helps the function of the br

MMA Betting

Exactly How MMA Betting Works
Betting on MMA fights can add a lot of excitement to your fight nights. As a former big time sports bettor, I'm going to answer your questions and explain to you how the betting odds work and how you can make money during fight night.
How Fight Odds Work
Unlike a spread on a football game where one team is getting a certain amount of points (ex. Saints +7), in MMA fights the line on the game is what's called a money line. So for a MMA fight you might see the following odds on a fight…
Georges St. Pierre (-245)
Thiago Alves (+185)
In this fight, GSP would be the favorite and at -245 it means for every $2.45 you bet, you will win $1 if he wins the fight. So if you bet $245 on GSP and he wins, you'd profit $100. If GSP were to lose though, you'd lose the full $245. If you were to bet on Thiago Alves at +185, you would would win $1.85 for every $1 you bet. So if you bet $100 on Thiago and he wins the fight, you will profit $185. If Thiago were to lose the fight, you'd lose your original $100 bet. "From mmaodds.com"

Billy Butler is closing in on the all-time record for double plays
Aug 23, 2010, 11:47 AM EDT
Royals first baseman Billy Butler is having a very nice season, hitting .308/.379/.456 with 46 extra-base hits and nearly as many walks (53) as strikeouts (56) as a 24-year-old, but he's also closing in on a dubious record.
Butler has grounded into 26 double plays, which is the most in baseball this season, ties the Royals' franchise record, and puts him on pace to come up just short of the all-time record of 36 by Jim Rice in 1984. Rice also holds the second spot on the list with 35 double plays in 1985, and right now Butler is on pace for 34.
Butler offered a good explanation when asked about his DP total:
You hit a lot of hard balls on the ground and you don't run very well. It's a bad combination. It's inevitable. My strikeouts are down, so I'm getting more contact, so the odds are higher for that. It's one of those things that's going to happen. Double plays are part of the game.
Many people assume that double plays come primarily from someone being a slow runner, but in reality that's merely one factor. For instance, Jim Thome has been one of the slowest players in baseball for 20 years now, yet has grounded into just 9.5 double plays per 150 games.
Thome is slow, but he also puts very few balls in play thanks to tons of homers, walks, and strikeouts, and when he does put the ball in play it's in the air a very high percentage of the time. Butler, on the other hand, compounds his lack of speed with a low strikeout rate that leads to lots of balls in play and has one of the league's highest ground-ball rates. He's also right-handed, which is a little icing on the double play cake.
Butler is still having a good year despite all the double plays, but they do make his production less valuable than it initially appears. He's grounded into 15 more double plays than the average hitter would in his 523 plate appearances, and if you take those 15 "extra" outs and subtract them from his .308 batting average and .379 on-base percentage it would leave him hitting .275 with a .349 OBP instead.
The lesson here? As always, Jim Rice shouldn't be in the Hall of Fame.
- BC - Aug 23, 2010 at 11:54 AM
Thome walks a heck of a lot though.
I knew Rice hit into a ton of double plays, but I would have figured Mark McGwire would have been up there. Slow guy, had Rickey getting on base 50% of the time… Curious.
- Ari Collins - Aug 23, 2010 at 11:54 AM
Hah, nice conclusion.
- John_Michael - Aug 23, 2010 at 12:45 PM
Wait, I thought baseball players were all dumb jocks that dusn't understand numbrz 'n' stuff like that stuff.
The DP record, like the all time Losses record for a pitcher, is sort of ironic. You have to be a good player to stick around long enough to attain it. If Butler wasn't a productive player, he wouldn't get enough PA's to get the DP record, so therefore, the DP record designates a good player. Jim Rice, while perhaps not a HOF'er, was a good player.
- Cheap Seat Chronicles - Aug 23, 2010 at 12:56 PM
Best. Conclusion. Ever.
Gleeman gets the win to start the week out right. Love it!
- frank pepe - Aug 23, 2010 at 12:58 PM
kendall batting in front of him, who is 12 for 19 stealing this year: there could be a chance that kendall, running poorly, has just not broken up as many DPs as a league avg baserunner might. then again, some of those CS could be botched hit and runs.
- Wooden U Lykteneau - Aug 23, 2010 at 1:29 PM
Anybody that says Jim Rice was slow never actually saw him play.

Free lunch served in Cambridge at Nanna Mexico on Thursday to spice up your life – and help Magpas
Posted: July 16, 2014|
There is such a thing as a free lunch in Cambridge – and it could save lives.
A free lunch will be served to everyone who visits Nanna Mexico in Petty Cury between 11.30am and 2pm tomorrow (Thursday, July 17) to celebrate the grand opening of the company's second Cambridge restaurant.
Nanna Mexico is warmly welcoming customers to come along on the day and to donate what they feel their meal is worth to the local charity Magpas Lifesavers.
Last year the son of owner Luis Navarro was saved by the charity after he was in a critical condition following a seizure. Zac suffers from a rare form of epilepsy causing breathing difficulties.

13 thoughts on "FELL #5 Out Today"
Excellent! I've been eagerly awaiting each issue!
I think Fell is my new favorite of all your works.
Now I'm rethinking this whole "buy comics after work on Friday" thing.
And it is excellent. Bravo
Nice issue. Good story. I love the dialogue. It's nice to see Det. Fell learning how things work in Snowtown. Great art, too. It's like you wrote in the backmatter, it's difficult to show drama when it's just two people talking in a box. Ben did a wonderful job dramatizing the interrogation.
excellent issue.
so many things to say about it, but i've probably blubbered them all already.
Damn you!! I'm unemployed and can't afford to buy this, but you know I will anyhow. I'd rather read than eat.
And it is superb, sir. Thanks to you and Mr. Templesmith for continuing to amaze.
ARHHHHHHhh the spoilers above the spoilers!!! I'm on my way after work to pick it up.
But any chance of an UK signing…any…at all?
What if I got you into the guardian?
Any place to order fell#5 over the net? Asked for it at a comicbookshop where i live (Oslo), their respose was that they had stopped taking it in as it sold out too fast! At least their not capitalists…
Any place to order fell over the net? Asked for it at a comicbookshop where i live (Oslo), their respose was that they had stopped taking it in as it sold out too fast! At least their not capitalists…
Tangentially related to the guy who can't buy Fell #5 because his local comic shop is run by monkeys that were evidentially never house trained.
The local comic shop here has been claiming for 3 weeks that they've got an order on for more of Fell #2, Yet I have yet to see any evidence of them having it. And they were claiming at the same time as you posted that the supplier still had a bunch of Fell #2 that there were none left and they'd never get more in.
I'm torn between loyalty to my local comic shop, and the ability to buy comics over the Internet, I really am. They pretty much incite me towards no longer gracing them with my patronage by these acts of outright lies.
Thank you for Fell, Mr. Ellis. #5 was a blast to read, and while I can understand the desire not to limit your creative bursts, please don't feel compelled to limit yourself when it comes to interviews. Fell #3 and Fell#5 have been my favorite issues so far, not in the least because you get to watch Richard's strategems for verbal assaults.

My Story is probably not very uncommon but it's a very special life changing story for me and the woman I love with all of my heart and soul.

My Story is probably not very uncommon but it's a very special life changing story for me and the woman I love with all of my heart and soul.
My husband and I met in May of 2009, through an online dating website. I loved his sense of humor and we got along great! It was not my first interracial relationship, nor was it his, but I'm glad he's in my life. We've made it through a lot, and my mom even knew he was the one-- before she passed, she used to call him her "future son-in-law" after he came over for dinner one night, had seconds and thirds, and then dozed off on the chaise lounge! He proposed in 2010, and we have been married for two years (and counting)!
My brilliant husband and I have been happily married for 12 years. Ironically, our beautiful wedding took place on June 12th, the anniversary of the 1967 United States Supreme Court decision Loving v. Virginia. Based on my experiences, Canada, especially my favourite city of Toronto, is a fantastic place for mixed couples to live. I resided in Kentucky and Ohio for about 6 years and I have travelled to a number of locations in the United States. In general, as a mixed couple, the behaviour of others makes me feel extremely uncomfortable, when we are in the United States.
This story isn't just another mixed race couple, it's a gender issue as well. I'm a mix of a Choctaw Indian/Black race & I have my preference of being with a white man in relationships. Even in the gay world, me being/living in a problem also. In baseball I guess I used all my strikes..#1color, #2woman, #3trans(m2f)..so I have to survive, not win. I don't get frowned upon because of my gender as much anymore, because in the straight world I'm just a black woman, & in the gay world I'm even called a freak, which you think would be more accepting, but it's not.
You don't need a dating site, or even a good friend to match make for you to meet the love of your life. We met through volunteering at the same NGO 7 years ago to the month. It was my first interracial relationship, though my partner had being previously married and has two biracial children. I was initially cautious about revealing my relationship to others, fear of what friends and family might say as my home city has, until the last decade, been somewhat slow to welcome others of different backgrounds.
My name is Kerah and I met my husband Ben in 2007 when I moved next door to him. I was a single mother of two children and he was a single father of one child from his previous interracial marriage. We were friends for over a year before we ever went out on a date and 6 years later, we are still going strong. I'd never dated a caucasian man, but wasn't opposed to it. We had a child together in 2009 and married in 2012. We consider ourselves to be the interracial Brady Bunch! I'm African American and Native American and he's caucasian and Jewish.
We met in the fall of 2009 while attending an exhibit opening at a glass art gallery owned by mutual friends. That same night, we discovered that we owned identical cars (after Sarah mistakenly tried her key on Nick's car). While attending a concert at a cafe later that evening, we discovered that our interests and personalities matched almost as well as our cars! We attended All Hallow's Eve and Samhain (i.e. Halloween) festivities together the following days, and have been inseparable ever since!
Due to specific cultural mindsets, I had to use various strategies, like religion to persuade certain people to be on my side of the fence when it came to marrying the man of my dreams. Luckily, they came around and we were able to be fully accepted by my family, the most important people to me. Unfortunately however, their community was not as accepting, which honestly means little to nothing to myself. In the past 3 years, we laughed together, fought together, and I never look back to what we had to do to stay together.
James and I have a fairly unique story. James was in the US Army Reserves, and his civilian job was working as a Sergeant at a local county jail. I started working at the jail as a correctional officer March 2005. When I first met him something caught my attention. We started dating that July. Not only were we of different races (him black, and me white), he was almost over 31 years older than me. The differences if anything made us stronger. We were connected on a deep level and were very compatible. Shortly after our wedding on April 7, 2012, James deployed to Kosovo.

No option left behind: Parents react to getting school transfer letters
Description of No Child Left Behind target list
NCLB data highlighting progress and challenges
Kim Leffew couldn't believe what she was reading. As the parent of a rising eighth grader at Bearden Middle School, she was dismayed to open a note from the school system informing her that because Bearden Middle School had not made enough progress under the No Child Left Behind Act, her son was being offered the option of switching to a higher-performing school.
"When I read the letter, it seemed as though transferring to another school was the best option," said Leffew, shoving her sunglasses back from her forehead. Leffew has since changed her mind about switching her son, but is still frustrated with the manner in which she found out about the failures mentioned in her letter. "Why were we notified now and not two years ago?"
Across the school district, parents have received letters like Leffew's, and face a choice of whether to transfer their students. For some schools, like Austin-East Performing Arts and Science Magnet High School or Fulton High School, these letters are nothing new. At other schools, parents are registering a greater degree of surprise, and in some cases, alarm.
Bearden Middle School is one of six schools whose parents are receiving these letters for the first time this year because of strings attached to new federal stimulus money that the school system has accepted.
What's confused some parents is that getting a letter for the first time doesn't necessarily mean a sudden drop-off in the quality of test scores at their child's school.
According to the No Child Left Behind Act, schools that receive Title I (federal funding designed to help poor students) must offer parents the option to transfer if the child's school has not made adequate yearly progress in test scores, attendance and graduation rates across a wide range of demographic groups for each of the past two years after becoming a targeted school. No Child Left Behind transfers are special because the district must additionally provide transportation to the new schools for the students.
Using Bearden Middle School as an example, it's possible for a school to meet adequate yearly progress for 2008-2009, but still be penalized for the past year. And until the school got signed up for Title I funds this year, it was not required to offer No Child Left Behind transfers, regardless of scores.
At a meeting at Bearden Middle School on July 22, nearly 200 people showed up for a discussion about the offer of transfer.
Some parents expressed concerns about the school and interest in transferring, but the biggest rounds of applause came after parents either praised the school or criticized the tone or timing of the letters (dated July 14). For example, some expressed feeling that there was not enough time to make plans for a student to attend another school or do research on the other school choices.
Donna Wright, assistant superintendent for curriculum and instruction with the Knox County Schools, said that the school system had little choice about either.
The state mandates what is said in the notes, Wright said, and it penalizes school systems if they release adequate yearly progress data too soon.
"We've been slapped for this before," Wright said, adding that she's sympathetic with parents who wish they could have been notified sooner than a month before school.
As far as the charge that parents haven't been informed about past years' failures, Wright said that the school system has always made adequate yearly progress data available online, and that parents can also monitor school test performance through the state test results they receive each year.
In the past, Wright said, only a small portion of Knox County students have opted for transfers, and she doesn't particularly expect a mass exodus this year. Students who want to transfer will likely be able to go to their first school choice, and if not, then their second choice since school starts Aug. 17.
Students and parents thinking about transferring have a lot to weigh.
"This is one of the biggest decisions I've ever made, because my friends are staying here," said rising sixth-grader and county spelling bee runnerup Alec Bissell, who has decided to ask for a transfer to West Valley Middle School because, after looking at test scores, he thinks that West Valley is a better school. "If they (Bearden Middle School) have trouble meeting the ridiculously low standards that the state sets, that doesn't say very good things about the capabilities," Alec said.
As for Leffew, she came away from the meeting feeling reassured about the school and excited about new programs being put into place that could help her son.
She said that she has been very pleased thus far with his education at Bearden Middle, and that he likes being able to interact with students of diverse backgrounds, including those who have disabilities, something he wouldn't get to experience if he transferred to a more homogenous school.
As of Monday afternoon, the turnout to the Bearden Middle School meeting remained higher than turnout out to any other NCLB transfer meetings held thus far. At Carter High School, which is also new to the list, between 30 and 50 people attended. Some other schools new to the process will hold their meeting this week.
She said she hopes that families work to make the best decision for their students, but parents should keep in mind that in the upper grade levels, longstanding friendships can play a key role in student success and comfort at school.
"It really becomes important that they have a social group," Wright said. "If they don't have that … there's nothing lonelier."

The Longleaf Pine Ecosystem
Ecology, Silviculture and Restoration
(If any tax is payable it will be calculated and shown at checkout.)
Preview (read now) Add to my own site Give this ebook to a friend Add to my wishlist Author's page Publisher's page
moreThe longleaf pine ecosystem, once one of the most extensive ecosystems in North America, is now among the most threatened. Over the past few centuries, land clearing, logging, fire suppression and the encroachment of more aggressive plants have led to an overwhelming decrease in the ecosystem's size, to approximately 2.2 per cent of its original coverage. Despite this devastation, the range of the longleaf still extends from Virginia to Texas. Through the combined efforts of organizations such as the USDA Forest Service, the Longleaf Alliance and the Nature Conservancy, extensive programs to conserve, restore, and manage the ecosystem are currently underway. The longleaf pine ecosystems are valued not only for their aesthetic appeal, but also for their outstanding biodiversity, habitat value, and for the quality of the longleaf pine lumber. They have a natural resistance to fire and insects, and support more than thirty threatened or endangered plant and animal species, including the red-cockaded woodpecker and the gopher tortoise. "The Longleaf Pine Ecosystem" unites a wealth of current information on the ecology, silviculture and restoration of this ecosystem. less

Following on from the last picture I posted of our first (of four!) leopard sightings during my latest trip to Kenya's Masai Mara last month, as lucky as I thought we were to catch the young male out in the open, suddenly out of a thicket his sister appeared!
Most driver/guides in the Mara have two-way radios that they use to communicate with each other and report the animals they are seeing in their vicinity, which can of course be of enormous benefit. Felines usually being top of a safari-goer's sighting wish list, headed by the traditionally illusive leopard, when a call comes over the airways of a leopard having been seen every other encounter is quickly abandoned while drivers race to the location.
Our vehicle was the third to show up and, like the other two, we tried to maintain a respectful distance so as to not cause any stress to the leopards. Unfortunately, as more vehicles arrived, one inexperienced driver managed to do something to piss the male off - really not sure what, as my face was pressed up hard to my camera! - hence the fiery expression that ensued.
Though in this relatively small-size picture they're not as clear to make out as in the first one I shared of him, the male's eyes are more greenish in hue. His sister, however, still retained the blue eye-colour that most cubs are born with, a colour that eventually transforms into the greenish golden-brown of adulthood, and at this transitional stage, as you can hopefully see, her eyes had the appearance of icy-blue, which lent toward a perfectly apt title for this picture, as she was endeavouring to keep her bother calm, rubbing up against him and eventually curling her tail in comfort around him, which was the next frame I captured.
If you have something of a passion for animals as well as wildlife photography and wish to join us in Kenya on our next photo safari, feel free to contact me anytime for more details: firstname.lastname@example.com
As opposed to regular safaris, we concentrate on improving your photographic skills and getting you into the most favourable situations in the field that will enable you to capture the best images of every given opportunities. We currently offer 7-day, 10-day, and 14-day photo safaris in Kenya, in addition to which I will be happy to share my knowledge of developing photos to help you bring out the very best of your own.
Thank you for sharing your time with me and wishing you a wonderful weekend!

This Lemon Sea Salt Cleanse is a phenomenal rebalancing, detoxifying, rehydrating and restorative elixir. Sea salt stimulates your intestines and removes toxins, and lemon juice has many health benefits for your body. Donald and I have been drinking this daily for three months, and we both feel the positive difference in our bodies.
We recommend drinking the Lemon Sea Salt Cleanse (to create an alkaline environment in your body) before taking any probiotics. Probiotics flourish in an alkaline atmosphere, and you will get greater benefit the more probiotics remain in your stomach.
Lemon Sea Salt Cleanse:
One lemon (we prefer organic lemons as they do not have the resins, waxes and chemicals applied to the skin)
¼ to ½ teaspoon sea salt (amount of salt depends on your taste preference)
8 oz filtered water
Measure salt, and put into glass
Slice the lemon in half, and squeeze the juice into the glass
Add water and drink!
(We recommend pure, sun-kissed sea salt, fleur de sel from the coast of Brittany.)
Lemons have vitamins and minerals, essential for a healthy and functioning body; the antioxidant vitamin C, also vitamin A, vitamin B6, and vitamin B1 (thiamine), Minerals present lemons include copper, calcium and potassium. Copper has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties. Calcium is good for bones and teeth while potassium helps maintain PH and water balance.
Alkaline vs. Acidic
Lemon water with salt balances your body's pH levels. A pH level above 7.0 is alkaline and below 7.0 is acidic. Although it may seem counter-intuitive, since lemon is acidic, when we drink lemon juice it turns alkaline in our stomachs. And salt is alkaline in nature, so the lemon juice and the salt together bring your body into pH balance. For optimal health, your body should be in an alkaline state, rather than acidic. Maintenance of pH balance is a fundamental component of good health, as poor pH balance can create digestive problems, skin diseases, osteoporosis, arthritis etc. Proper pH balance also allows better nutrient absorption, digestion, toxin elimination, etc.
Our bodies need minerals for optimal health. We don't produce these minerals on our own, so we have to get them from food. Proper absorption of minerals is necessary for our bodies to perform important functions like maintenance of pH balance and keeping the nervous system healthy, acting as a co-factor for enzyme reactions, formation of bones and teeth, metabolic stimulation etc. Drinking lemon water with sea salt improves the absorption of minerals like magnesium, iron, potassium etc., and can help prevent health issues like osteoporosis (calcium deficiency), anaemia (iron deficiency), muscle weakness and abnormal heart rhythm (magnesium deficiency).
Healthy Heart
The heart is a vital organ and its health and care is extremely important. Lemon juice consumption has been found beneficial maintaining a healthy heart. Potassium controls high blood pressure, while vitamin C will lower cholesterol levels and prevent blood clotting within vessels. Lemon juice has antioxidant properties, helping to eliminate harmful toxins and purify blood. A steady diet of lemon water can help to preven strokes, heart attacks and other serious heart problems.
Lemon Sea Salt Cleanse: simple to prepare, inexpensive ingredients, and life-saving properties!

The rookie has become increasingly important to the Lions with Titus Young having fallen out of favor. Broyles tore a ligament while he was a senior at Oklahoma, but that was in his left knee. Colts offensive lineman Joe Reitz left in the first quarter and will not return after undergoing a concussion evaluation. --- Online: http://pro32.ap.org/poll and http://twitter.com/AP-NFL
