Kukla's Korner Hockey
An "Embarrassing" Home Loss For The Senators
by Paul on 03/19/14 at 09:35 AM ET
Comments (0)
from Bruce Garrioch of the Ottawa Sun,
Facing a must-win, the Senators fell flat on their face Tuesday night at the Canadian Tire Centre.
Big game. Bigger disappointment. A total disgrace in front of 17,326.
The Senators vowed they wouldn't go down without a fight for a spot in the post-season, but that was hardly the case in an embarrassing 8-4 defeat to the New York Rangers....
"It's embarrassing," said captain Jason Spezza. "That was a must-win game for us. To give up eight is unacceptable. It's been the same thing all year for us. (This) was a microcosm of a lot of things."

Ilaria Pozzi is a model, a muse and so much more. In photographs we see her portrayed as a woman, who is obviously tattooed, but that it not what stands out the most. The way that she can show her audience more than one person, more than just one facet in a two dimensional photo, is inspiring. The emotions that Ilaria can project hits the observer in so many different ways, meaning that she can be numerous people at any one time.
Our Italian contributor Ilaria chatted to her about the tattoos on her body and the emotions connected to her photo shoots…
Which photo would you choose to introduce yourself to those who do not know you? The one above. Titled 'Almost Blue' by Francesco Tretto.
Was your first love tattoos or photography? What is the relationship/connection you see between the one and the other? They both are two forms of art expressed through images, the mean of communication with which I have always had more affinity. They are often linked artistically but in my opinion their relationship is, above all, a huge historical and cultural value. The first memories I have are about photography. I remember that my grandfather took pictures of me in his garden.
Beauty is fragility. Beauty, however, is also strength. What is your concept of beauty? For me, it's uniqueness. I usually find beautiful what is outside the box, that is not how it should be or as you do not expect.
What emotional impact does getting a new tattoo have for you? How do you feel after a photo shoot? I choose to get tattooed because it makes me feel good. I am happy after every tattoo. After a photo shoot I feel different emotions, depending on the type of work and the team. I can be excited, stressed, calm, etc.
Ilaria's favourite photo by Mira Nedyalkova
In many of your works we see you are almost or completely naked. What is your idea of intimacy? To me the moments of my private life are intimate, my thoughts and my feelings. As those who wear a uniform at work, I can be naked or I wear clothes that I will not use in my private life.
You cannot separate the body from the soul. True or false? False. There are two distinct realities: the physical one, which has a structure inherently mathematical, determines every physical process, chemical or biological. And there is psychic reality, that generates feelings and thoughts and that transcends the laws of physics.
Share Your Air by Mira Nedyalkova
A photo, a memory, can often become a tattoo. Those who photograph you also capture your life and your memories. How does this make you feel? I believe that, whenever you portray a tattooed or not tattooed person, you always capture their history, life and memories, etched on the face, the body or in the eyes. Yes, I can feel vulnerable, but if I have faith in who is behind the camera, that doesn't happen.
Which are the tattoos you are more connected with? And the artists you admire the most? I am attached to all of them, because they were made by friends who are also artists I really admire. Here are some: Stefano Prestileo (who also tattooed my back piece) Carlo FastColors, Krooked Ken to name just a few.
Share Your Air by Mira Nedyalkova
How do you feel when it's you behind the camera? I like to be able to observe and capture what I see as I see it. In a simple yet direct way, I can create an image from my point of view, always having a lot of respect for who or what I'm observing.
Do you have any ideas for your next tattoo? I should colour the snakes on my head, done by Stefano Prestileo, and I was also thinking to get a duck on my left foot!
Turkish tattoo artist Eva Krbdk from Daft Art Tattoo creates beautifully crafty cross-stitch tattoos. From up close the designs are made up of tiny crosses, the tiny brightly coloured stitches also look like pixels, but look at the image from a far and you will see a colourful design, much like any cross-stitch embroidery.

I am a British-born Sikh female living in Slough in the UK. I had a fairly "normal" upbringing, my parents gave me a lot of love, and we had a lot of fun on numerous family holidays and days out. But on the other side of happy families, I also remember being severely bullied in primary school – starting from as far back as nursery – and even getting beaten up, the bullying lasted until late secondary school. Being bullied day in, day out, led me to become very suicidal and I also used to self harm to release some of the hurt I was suffering. But I managed to stop myself as I realised that I was just causing myself more emotional and physical pain.
Over the years, I feel like I have gone through a rough time with my body. I have always been a chubby child, but then I was diagnosed with polycystic ovaries – it was around the time I hit puberty. Polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) is a condition in which there is an imbalance in hormones within the female body, this has led me to have more male hormones than female hormones, and it is also the reason why I have a beard. I used to remove my facial hair every other day by travelling to beauty salons. I had to have my face waxed two to three times a week, and on the days I couldn't bare the pain I would simply shave. Having this medical condition also made me to put on a lot of weight, and losing weight with a hormonal imbalance is really tough for me. Now I have come to realise that this body is mine, I own it, and I do not have any other body to live in, so I may as well love it unconditionally. I have now fallen in love with the elements on my body that people may call flaws. I adore my beard, my stretch marks, my scars, these elements make me who I am now, and they make me whole.
But I haven't always been so positive. When I was diagnosed I hit my biggest low. I hid myself away, I didn't want to venture out into the public. My bedroom was my home, it was my heaven and it was my tomb – my safe haven. I was hugely depressed. I remember sitting on my bed and thinking about my life. It takes a lot of guts, strength and energy for someone to actually end their life. So I sat on my bed and counselled myself. I told myself "the energy you are putting into thinking about ending your life, put all that energy into turning your life around and doing something better." At that point I was 16 years old, I decided I wanted to be me, I decided to keep my beard and step forward against society's expectations of what a woman should look like. Today I am not suicidal and I do not self harm. Today I am happy living as a young, beautiful bearded woman.
Going out into the public for the first time with a beard was a horrifying experience. I remember going out in London with a group of friends, there was about 15 of us altogether. When I arrived in London, it seemed like the whole world had come out to look and point at me. I was stared at everywhere I went, by everyone. I remember being very miserable, but my friends were there to help me and try to keep me happy. After that experience, I started going out more and started to enjoy myself. I do get the odd looks from people, young and old, but I am used to them now. I mean I have been a bearded lady for seven and a half years, if I am not used to it now when will I ever be?
I want people to realise that each and every one of us is different. We are all imperfectly perfect. I want to show society that beauty isn't just about looking a certain way, we should all celebrate individuality. I used to keep my beard for religious reasons, as Sikhs we are not supposed to remove our hair, but now I keep my hair to show the world a different, confident, strong image of a woman. I love my beard, it has become a part of my body and I do not want to remove it – it is the source of my strength and confidence. People just see the beard as hair, but my beard is much more than that. My beard gives me comfort as a woman, when I look at it I am reminded that we are all different and none of us are born the same. I adore my lady beard and I will forever cherish it. I do not trim my beard at all, I love how it freely curls and flows. People do make comments about it looking messy, but I love how it carelessly twangs in different directions. I love how my beard has body, that my beard has clean lineage on my cheeks and I guess I love the big volume that my beard has.
Now things have changed for me a little, as people have read about my story online and in magazines, they sort of understand who I am. I am currently working in a nursery as a teaching assistant, I love my job and it's great for the children to see a bearded lady, they love my beard nearly as much as I do. People tend to be genuinely very intrigued and inquisitive about my beard, I do have a lot of people approach me about it and ask me questions – some people even want pictures with me, and I happily pose for them. Many women, who are going through the same medical condition as I am, also contact me for comfort, support and inspiration – I do try and help as much as I can.
In the future, my dream is to become a full-time body confidence activist. I would love to share my story more and help women empower themselves. I want nothing more than to see women fall completely in love with their bodies. I always say to both men and women that they need to love themselves and accept any quirks that they have. We all deserve to celebrate our bodies – we are all beautiful. Growing my beard has taught me that as humans we are all so different in our own wonderful ways. Every person living on this earth right now is different from the next. I have learnt that there is no such thing as being "normal". I have learnt to accept my body for the way that it has grown. I have learnt to love myself unconditionally. Life is too precious not to.
As far as relationships go, I am not in one, but I would love to be. I want to meet someone who sees me for who I am. I believe that there is someone special out there who will see me for the beautiful, sparkling soul that I carry. I feel that a lot of people tend to judge me just by looking at my face. Only that special someone will realise that I am a woman with feelings, a heart, a soul, an aura and a personality. I shall always keep hold of the hope that I will find love one day, just one day.
My tattoos are also another part of my mind, body and soul, I love each and every one of them. I find peace just looking at them. Every tattoo symbolises a specific event in my life. My phoenix/peacock with the words "strength is beauty" around the wings was tattooed on me a few months after I came out of hospital after an operation. In my life I have been forced to face and battle with awful things and every time I have had to jump back up. I feel that I am a very resilient woman, I face my problems head on and I won't stop tackling issues in this way. This past year has been the real turning point for me, when I metaphorically killed my old self and gave birth to a more powerful, confident and happier self and that to me is beauty. Strength is beauty. The phoenix to me represents birth, death, and rebirth, and the peacock feathers represent beauty.
I also have a lotus flower surrounded by a henna-style design located on my upper back. The lotus flower sits on top of murky ponds and rivers, which is really symbolic of why I chose this tattoo. I feel that even after all the bad that has happened in my life, and all the bad that I have to face daily, I have stayed afloat and carried on living in this world. The henna design represents those murky waters, even these are beautiful for having created such a stunning flower. I also have the word "love" on my left wrist and "faith" written on my right wrist, just to remind me to always live in love, to forever have faith in what ever I do and in what ever path I choose to take. The butterfly on my right foot reminds me to always spread my wings, to fly happily and beautifully to my next destination.
My bearded lady tattoo is very important to me, she represents me and I love her. The whole design has a story to tell. The tear drops on the roses are there to show the tears that I have shed, and the single petals represent the times I have fallen and hit my lows. The roses remind me of life and how beautiful it is. I also have the words "The Dame" written underneath, this was a title given to me by Brock Elbank and Jimmy Niggles. I am a part of their Project60 portrait series to help show awareness for melanoma cancer. Out of 60 men, I am the only female who is a part of this beard project.
In the future, I really want to have two half sleeves, I am hoping to have a Medusa piece started soon, she is such a beautifully powerful woman. I would love to have my spine tattooed, one more bearded lady tattoo and my left foot done to match my right. I would love to be heavily tattooed, and I am sure that each tattoo will represent me in some way or form. My body is a blank canvas and I am ready to cover it in beautiful art that tells my life story. ❦
Italian tattoo artist Claudia Ottaviani is currently backpacking around the world and guesting at different studios.
Our Italian contributor Ilaria chatted to her about her love for the power of tattooing, here is an insight into her karmic journey through life.
Portrait by Esther Galvan
How would you describe your style and how did you choose it? Even if the subjects are not always inspired by traditional style, I would say it belongs to old school, both for the technique and for the colours. Last year I also approached ornamental and dotwork style. I can not tell which one I would choose, this profession is constantly evolving, but in the end I definitely remain a colour lover!
An Italian girl around the world. Tell me about your experiences abroad. Do you find any difference between Italian and Central European customers? My work experience abroad began more than one year ago, when I moved to Barcelona to work at LTW. This year, in February, I started to organise a small tour in Europe which led me to work in many studios: Admiraal Tattoo Studio, True Love Madrid, The Bunker and many more! When invited to do guest spots, most of the customers will choose you because they trust your work. There is no need to convince the customer to get something less commercial, let's just say I've had better luck abroad.
Can you tell me about the feelings your travels gave you, both as a person and as an artist? I started travelling when I was 19, and at 23 I found myself as a backpacker in South America, an experience that has definitely changed my outlook of life.
I've realised that, as much as the tattoo itself, even the travel is fundamental and should be a goal to pursue. And here I am today. New places, new tattoos, new cities, landscapes, cultures and languages. It's very stimulating and it opens your mind.
Have you ever met obstacles along your way? How important is the support from family and friends? Obviously I found obstacles, as everyone does in their life. Rome was not that easy for me. That's why I decided to leave it more than once, but I have never felt like an unfortunate victim. It's life, everyone makes their path!
My family is a good one, I am really proud of them. They have always helped me and believed in me, even though my mother still does not talk to me for three days after I get each new tattoo. Friend are also a huge source of energy.
What do you like best about being a tattoo artist? How deeply can you feel your subjects while preparing them and how important is your state of mind as you create them? Being a fundamental part of the process of creation of indelible marks that people decide to carry forever on their skin is always a great honour. While travelling, the drawing part is physically more difficult, but a lot easier mentally. I will try to explain it better: in the beginning, I sometimes had to force myself to find inspiration and then start creating. Today everything is much more spontaneous and instinctive, there is no need for a particular state of mind, maybe just a general wellness.
What are your favourite subjects? Women, flowers, hands, Kama Sutra positions, everything I see as classic and elegant. This oriental inspiration reached me thanks to a friend and colleague of Barcelona, Alexis Jofre, who one day took me to a nice library. We were right in the centre of the Asian art department. My mouth was wide open in front of those beautiful books! So I had to buy one, it was about musical paintings of ancient India. I could already see a thousand new ideas in my mind. Thank you Alexis!
Are you also interested in religious and sacred images? Is it a choice linked to your beliefs or purely aesthetic? I am not a believer, or rather not in the strict sense of the term. I believe in many things and my vision of life is certainly closer to eastern philosophies than to western religions. That said, there are symbols like crosses, svastike, tao, om that are to me simply fascinating. I like to see the power that these simple cultural lines have, if only put together.
What do you think of the tattoo culture today? People I'm encountering in my path and the experiences I'm having are extremely positive. Regarding the negative side, there is always karma!
Which artists do you admire and give you inspiration? Whether in the world of tattoo art or art in general. Inspiration comes from many people, and the list of names would be infinite. I admire some artists I have personally met, or with whom I had the pleasure to work with. Rodrigo DC, Alexis Camburn, Angelique Houtkamp, Lina Stiggson and many, many more!
Is there a particular subject you would like to tattoo or one you would you never tattoo? I do not like politician tattoos. I think I would love to start tattooing more animals and oriental religious figures.
What tattoos are on your skin and by who would you get a tattoo in the future? On me I have amazing pieces by: Diego Brandi, Alessandro Turcio, Cassandra Frances and many more! I really hope to get something by Tony Nilsson, Guy le Tatooer, Jaclyn Rèhe, the list could never end!
Summer is upon us and the world is in bloom, what better way to celebrate the sunshine than our pick of peony tattoos?
Have you got a peony tattoo you'd like to share with us?
Eva Laflamme, editor of The Tattoo Tourist, invites you to take our tattoo collector quiz.tattoo by Jeff Gogue
"Tattoos can say a lot about a person. Having a tattoo or tattoos, subject matter and placement all form an impression of an individual whether it is accurate or not. If you are reading this you probably have a tattoo or are thinking of getting one. What will your tattoo say about you? What do you want it to say? Ask yourself, "How will my tattoo/s represent me? "
"Or don't. Seriously – Do. Not. Get tattoos because they are cool as shit and you like them and you had some time and a hundred bucks to kill while you were getting your tires rotated and that is how you got your latest ink. I'm not making fun here – that is a completely legitimate way to ink up and the chosen method for a majority of tattoo enthusiasts. The sheer number of tattoo shops in the USA and abroad allows for a free-wheeling approach to acquiring ink that is unprecedented,
"Twenty plus years ago when I got my first tattoo I was living in Utah. (Don't judge. It could happen to anyone.) I decided to get my first tattoo and choosing a shop was very easy. There was only one in a hundred mile radius. My choice of artist? Limited to the sketchy metal head with the tattoo machine and a terrifying case of the shakes. Now you can find shops in the most unlikely of places including some very tiny locations and upscale towns. Where you used to have to go to the sketchier areas to find a shop you can now go to a fancy mall and get tattooed right in the display window. Times have changed but what about the way people get tattooed?
"Back in the early 70s when tattooing started to emerge from the docks and honky tonks and into "polite society" the first tattoo conventions were held. These were serious-minded collectives of tattoo artists looking to share information, check out each others equipment (basically all hand crafted) and compare work. The non-artists in attendance were mostly wives and girlfriends of the artists (precious few women tattooing at this time) and a sprinkling of die-hard fans. Now many tattoo conventions are full-scale lifestyle events with bands, car shows, beauty pagents, acres of branding and merchandise, celebrity artists, fans and collectors. So what is a tattoo collector exactly and what is the difference between a person who loves tattoos and has a bunch and a tattoo collector who also loves tattoos and has a bunch. Welllll – it's subtle.
"A tattoo fan will get a tattoo as the mood strikes based on proximity to a tattoo artist, cash in pocket and whatever looks good on the flash wall or idea they have swimming around in their head. A tattoo collector will get a tattoo based on extensive research of favourite artists, email stalking of said artists, long waiting periods of anywhere from six months to two years and an investment in their ink that would shock a lot of people who have tattoos."tattoo by Teresa Sharpe
Here is a check list to see if you are a Tattoo Collector
(If you answer "yes" to more than two you have got the bug)
1. You have a list of artists you would like to work with
2. Those artists have waiting lists or their "books are closed"
3. This fact causes you angst to varying degrees.
4. You are willing to let an artist dictate partially or completely what they will tattoo on you and where and how big
5. This causes you no angst – you are totally game
6. You are willing to travel more than a couple of hours from your home – even fly and even go out of country for a tattoo (If you answered yes to this one you have the bug – period. – no cure in sight!)
7. You don't have as many tattoos as you want because you are waiting for that particular artist to agree to work with you
8. You can identify more than five tattoos artists' work at a glance
9. Your friends and family think you are a little nuts about the whole tattoo thing. You sort of agree with them
10. You know most people "don't get it" but that is fine. Some people collect Beanie Babies or schnauzers and you don't get that but it's their thing and that is cool with you. Serious tattoo collecting is YOUR thing. You are approaching your body like a curated tattoo exhibit and it is a fascinating, exasperating, thrilling and expensive ride. Buckle Up!tattoo by Erin Chance
"How did you do? I said "yes" to all ten so I am definitely up to my neck in it. And does it matter if you said no to all of them? Does that make your tattoos "less than"? Oh hell no. Part of me wishes I could tap the brakes on my tattoo mania and just get some ink without having to move heaven and earth first. I chatted about Rock and Roller Andy Biersack's "random" ink collection last week and I wasn't kidding when I said I thought it was cool as hell.
"That is one of the many things I love about tattoos and tattoo culture – it truly does embrace all types. From the middle age housewife with a serious tattoo collection to the young 20 somethings inking up on the fly with no plan and no worries. At the end of the day it all looks pretty damn cool. Unless you get a crap tattoo. That is not cool.
"So maybe you are not a "collector" but at the very least be a good tattoo consumer. Go to a professional tattoo artist who employs proper safety standards and knows how to handle a tattoo machine. Scratchers are called that largely because their line work is shaky as shit due to their lack of know-how. Tattooing well takes serious practice and skill to do it right. Don't offer up your skin to a half-assed amateur. Make sure you are getting inked by a professional who takes pride in their craft – whether it is an elaborate full back piece or a simple word tattoo – then your ink will always be cool to the only person whose opinion on it truly matters – Your Own.tattoo by Kelly Doty
all tattoos in this post are done by my short list of "dream" artists. If you help me get an appointment with one of them I will bake you your favorite cookies and Fed Ex them to you – I promise!
In honour of Nike's #airmaxday last week, we got a few of our readers to send in photos of themselves rocking their favourite pair of Air Max alongside some cheeky leg tattoos. Who doesn't love rocking a subtle slice of tattooed skin above a pair of Nikes?

Full Lenght: 25 minutes. Kinky games with young Asian twink Jack. Here the cameraman explore Jack and his inner lusts. Jack sit on the bed and then told to remove the towel, and what comes into sight is not small. Even bigger it get when the cameraman wearing a latex-glove play with it. After exploring the hard big brown cock, Jack turns over giving us some sexy ass moves and nice views of his hole. Then the cameraman makes the boy suck his cock, and push it deep inside Jack's mouth several times so Jack gags and tears are barely dripping from his eyes. But by the look of Jack's cock it seems like the boy likes it a bit rough. So rougher it gets, Jack agrees to let the cameraman fist him for the first time. Jack is brave, twitches and whimpers by the extreme penetration and he takes the whole hand nearly over the wrist inside his stretched out hole. But the cameraman still got more anal games going on, next up with a milk enema causing a white mess all over the floor and camera. Let us just say that Jack know how to push! Then for the final and Jack's reward for his efforts, he get a big cum facial from the Cameraman and he has to lick the cock clean. Good boy Jack, willing to serve everyone's naughty and dirty fantasies!

PRLog - Feb. 9, 2011 - ALPHARETTA, Ga. -- In 2010, part of the worst economic downturn since the Great Depression, local municipalities struggled with shrinking tax revenues, budget gaps and budget cuts for neighborhood traffic-calming purchases. As a result, communities plagued with unsafe streets due to speeding drivers, the trend for HOAs to take matters into their own hands has gained momentum. For Radarsign ™—the manufacturer of the world's first armored driver feedback sign—year-
Radarsign is the Manufacturer of the World's First Armored Driver Feedback Radar Sign
"The trend began about 10 years ago in California,"
"The trend is especially apparent in today's economic climate," Robeson continued. "When local governments can't afford to implement solutions to make streets safe homeowners associations and community activists seek their own solution to slow speeding drivers. The solution that HOAs are turning to is Radarsign."
Radarsign was founded with neighborhood safety in mine; its founders live in neighborhoods where speed signs were often ignored, causing the areas to be unsafe at times. It wasn't until they did some research that they learned just how unsafe their communities could be:
A pedestrian hit by a car traveling 40 mph has an 85 percent chance of being killed. At 30 mph, those odds decrease to 55 percent. By contrast, the chance of a pedestrian being killed if hit by a car moving at 20 mph is only 15%. (Killing Speed and Saving Lives, UK Department of Transportation, 1987)
A vehicle traveling 40 mph will still be going 36 mph when it hits a person who suddenly appears in the street 100 feet ahead of it; however, the average driver going 25 mph would be able to come to a full stop within 100 feet. (Killing Speed and Saving Lives, UK Department of Transportation, 1987)
About Radarsign
In 2004, Atlanta-based Radarsign™ established new industry standards for traffic-calming solutions with the debut of the world's first armored driver feedback signs, which are vandal, weather and bullet-resistant. The industry's most durable radar signs are also the most ecological. Radarsign'

That was nearly five years ago. Today, Mindy and her husband, Ben, are the parents of four: Steven, who is 8; Jonathan, 5; Daniel, 3 1/2; and Miriam Michele, 6 months. Their company, Baby Spritz, now offers two baby sprays: The Baby Wipe Alternative and Diaper Rash Spray. The Cohens, who live in New Hempstead, run the company from their home.
Mindy and Ben tested their products extensively on their own children, and on those of friends and family, searching for the least irritating and most effective formulas. The anti-bacterial Baby Wipe Alternative is spritzed onto a baby's sensitive bottom and wiped away with a tissue. It can also be used to clean hands and faces when no water is available. The Diaper Rash Spray, which soothes with aloe vera, lanolin and vitamins A, D, and E, relieves symptoms gently and instantaneously, since you don't have to touch the baby's skin to apply it.
While the spray wipe as well as the company's name was Mindy's idea, the couple used Ben's business connections (he works for a private equity fund, but was in graduate school when they conceived the company) to find a lab to create the product. Mindy, who worked as a CPA before having children, handles the company's accounting. Baby Spritz is a true family business: Ben's brother, Michael, is the director of marketing, and Miriam Michele is still an avid customer.
Baby Spritz products are sold at small pharmacies and supermarkets, and online at www.babyspritz.com.

How to Felt a Wool Hummingbird
Make a lifelike wool hummingbird by dyeing your own wool fibers.
Materials and Tools:
photographs of hummingbirds (from bird guide books)
pair of wool combs
2 saucepans
2 packages of green powdered drink mix
2 packages of red powdered drink mix
white vinegar
2 oz. of washed white Romney wool
small pinch of black wool
handful of iridescent Angelina fiber (sparkly fiber)
small foam pad
felting needle
2 black beads
black thread
black 1/8" ribbon
sewing needle
warm soapy water
measuring spoons and cups
wooden spoons
wood skewer
- Comb the wool to eliminate any uneven or tangled parts using two wool combs.
- Bring two cups of water to a boil in a saucepan. Add two packages of green powdered drink mix and one tablespoon of white vinegar.
- Stir the green mixture and add a handful of white wool.
- Lower the heat and simmer until all the color is absorbed into the wool.
- Rinse the colored wool in cold water.
- Let dry.
- Repeat the dyeing process (steps 2-6) using red powdered drink mix and white wool.
- While the tinted wool is drying, take a tiny bit of white wool and begin to from an oval shape for the body and head of the hummingbird. Use your hands, pinching and wrapping the wool around itself. The body, neck and head are all made as one piece. The body should measure approximately 2-1/2 inches long.
- Sculpt the wool into the body shape with a felting needle. Refer to drawings or photos of hummingbirds for inspiration.
- Add dyed green wool to the back of the hummingbird and some on the stomach.
- Blend a few wisps of red-dyed wool and sparkly fiber together with wool combs or your fingers.
- Add wisps of this combined colored fiber to the head and throat of the bird with a felting needle. Leave the breast white.
- Shape green wool into a wing by layering small wisps of wool on top of one another and needle felting into a wing shape. Make two wings. Each wing should measure about 2-inches long.
- Attach the wings to the body using the felting needle. The wings can be attached so that the hummingbird is flying or at rest. Fold the wool, stretch it and tear it to form the wing shape.
- Make a tail using green wool in the same way as the wings, shaping it like a fan. The tail should measure about 1-inch long and 2-inches wide.
- Attach the tail to the body with the felting needle.
- Wrap black wool several times, about 1-1/2 inch up a skewer, to form the bird's beak. Slip the rolled wool off the skewer and needle it to keep its shape. Keep one end slightly wider and with loose fibers so that you can attach it to the head.
- Attach the loose end of the beak to the head.
- Using a little hot, soapy water, dab the beak with your fingertips and gently twist one end for the tip of the beak. Roll the beak gently between your fingertips.
- Squeeze excess dampness off the beak with a towel.
- Using a needle and black thread, place one small black bead on the needle and sew it on the side of the hummingbird's head. As the needle comes through the other side, place the other black bead on it and sew to the other side of the head. Stitch back and forth a few times to ensure that the eyes are secure.
- Smooth the whole piece with hot soapy water and your fingertips or gently smooth the body with a felting needle, poking down any loose fibers.
- Thread a piece of black 1/8-inch ribbon through a needle and pass it from the bottom of the bird up through the area between the wings. Stitch back down through and tie a knot to secure. Adjust the ribbon to hang the hummingbird.

K.Will shares a selca watching 'The King 2 Hearts' in bed
K.Will shares a selca watching 'The King 2 Hearts' in bed
K.Will snapped a selca while watching MBC's drama 'The King 2 Hearts' in bed.
On April 12th, K. Will tweeted, "I'm watching 'the king 2 hul ch'. Hehe. Although I can't reply to each one, I'm still reading all the mentions," and shared the above picture.
K.Will humored his fans by changing the drama's title to "The King 2 Hul Ch", referring to the way that the title is pronounced with a Korean accent as well as a play on the expressions "hul" (a slang word for mild shock or surprise) and "ch" (a dismissal of something considered silly).
Fans commented, "After I read 'the king 2 hul ch' out loud, it sounded like native pronunciation," "Checking all the mentions, best fan service!" and "K.Will's bed selca has appeared."
K.Will's "Love is Crying" is receiving much love as part of the OST for 'The King 2 Hearts' as well.

Mormonism is not the quintessential "American religion," to use Tolstoy's words, just because it got its start in upstate New York. The church has long embodied notions and practices that drive contemporary American capitalism. And those ideas, as author Chris Lehmann demonstrated last October in Harper's Magazine, remain central to the shaping of national economic policy.
AP / Shea Walsh
Might we expect a joke or two about the missionary position? The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter-day Saints, aka the Mormon Church, is getting the "South Park" treatment once again—but a little differently this time.

The mass deportation most GOP voters want would cost taxpayers hundreds of billions
Though a strong majority of GOP voters—63 percent—say they would like to simply deport all undocumented immigrants, they probably have no idea that it's going to cost taxpayers a pretty penny. Esther Yu-Hsi Lee has the break down:
The center-right organization American Action Forum (AAF) found that it would cost between $400 billion and $600 billion to apprehend, detain, legally process, and transport every undocumented immigrant back to their countries of origin. Breaking down similar statistics, a Center of American Progress report found that it would cost an average of about $10,070 to deport each individual. The AAF report also found that without the 11 million undocumented immigrants, the U.S. labor force would shrink and real GDP would be reduced by $1.6 trillion.That economic shrinkage has actually proven to be true in two states that have adopted policies designed to force out most of their undocumented immigrants: Arizona and Alabama.
In the first year after passing SB 1070, Arizona's economy lost $141 million in losses from conference cancellations, and the tourist industry took a $250 million hit, with close to 3,000 jobs lost.More sound economic policies emanating straight from the GOP.
When Alabama passed its own anti-immigrant law in 2011, work at some companies that require strenuous labor nearly stopped. A chicken factory found that the "turnover rate has gone through the roof," while crops rotted on various farms. A University of Alabama report put the estimated economic damage at around $11 billion.
Life in prison for a Non-violent Crime
Seventy Years to Life whichever happens first. This is the sentencing my son Jeremy Stewart received. No murder was committed, nor was a bank robbed or a gun used. No one was tied any up, or raped. Yet, California sentenced him as if he had committed one of these crimes. He has been placed in prison with murderers and rapists. Jeremy was arrested for taking property from two homes while the occupants were gone. This is classified as "serious". Jeremy and many more like him do not qualify for Proposition 36's reduced sentencing opportunity passed by voter in 2012. Please, ask legislators to change the penal code for residential burglary life is not a fair sentence.
Jeremy's first strike conviction was for taking a DVD/VHS camcorder out of a house. The courts offered a strike with less time, a plea bargain. Jeremy received his second strike conviction after answering a call in the middle of the night to pick up a friend. His car had broken down close to where Jeremy lived. This friend had stolen property on him. Jeremy didn't know this until it was too late. Jeremy let him stay at his house that night. This friend left behind some costume jewelry worth $200.00 and Jeremy received his second strike while the friend walked.
After being released from Prison, Jeremy tested positive for crystal meth. He had an addiction problem. The Parole department informed Jeremy, go to jail or pay for a rehabilitation center. He feared being sent back to prison. He made some bad chooses trying to come up with money to pay his bills. Jeremy entered Sharp's rehabilitation center. On day four of his rehabilitation treatment his wife, Raechell, calls him. Stating, the police have come to the house to arrest you. Jeremy leaves the rehab to spend his last few hours with his pregnant wife and child. The Prosecutor stated Jeremy left a treatment program on his own free will and never explains why. He knew he would not have been allowed to complete this program anyway. Jeremy was being prosecuted for residential burglary. Sentencing day arrives and yes, the judge gave Jeremy the Ultimate sentence of 70 YEARS in a maximum security. What happened to letting the Time Fit the Crime?
My son was given a death sentence for property theft. CALIFORNIA is the only state to prosecute for a NON-Violent crime in this manner. I don't believe there is any place in the world that would lock someone up for 70 years for residential burglary. Is he eligible for parole? No he will die first since 100% of the time must be served and Good time credits is not allowed for three strikers in the state of California. Really and the taxpayers are going to pay for this? $65,000 per year over $6,000,000 is the price tag placed on Jeremy's incarceration and this is for just one person. Save our communities put the money into education, housing, medical, rehabilitation, helping the homeless, and repairing our streets. There are so many beneficial ways to use our tax dollars. Stop wasting money on mandating life for a non-violent crimes. I believe not all violent crimes deserve life sentences. Common sense needs to be applied by our courts. Life should be reserved for the most violent crimes to mankind. Demand change!
A Seventy years sentence is a medieval.
Our Constitution guarantees all citizens No unlawful imprisonment. This Right, was written before the Bill of Right was even formed and is for all U.S. citizens. Truly, this is form of unlawful and unjust imprisonment. I will be dead before my son is released from prison and chances are he will come out in a body bag if this law doesn't change. Murders and rapist serve less time for harming someone and are eligible for parole, in as early as 7 years. Something is terribly wrong with CALIFORNIA.
Tell everyone you know about my son, Jeremy. Education is key so this doesn't happen to your family. Write to the Legislators, the Senators, and the newspapers. Call the Governor or drop him an email and sign my petition going to the Governor Jerry Brown of California. Please help, Penal codes need to be changed in California. Thank you so much.

Save Oak Flat - Washington 22 July
San Carlos Council Member Wendsler Nosie Sr introduces Representative Raul Grijalva in front of the Capitol Building in Washington DC July 22 in a rally to reverse the land giveaway of Sacred Apache Land for destructive mining.
Councilmen Nosie, his granddaughter Naelyn Pike, and Representative Grijalva.
KDfrAZ posted earlier today on Oak Flat. He started a petition which should be signed. He had asked for a diary on the protest earlier. DC is not too far away so I took the day trip. Below are a few photos and a personal trip log.

AZ-Sen: CREDO Action Goes After John McCain's (R) Apache Land Grab Plan
Received this e-mail today from CREDO Action:
Click here to add your name: http://act.credoaction.com/...In what many believe is a first in U.S. history, Congress has decided to give away a sacred Native American site to a massive foreign mining company.1 We're joining a last ditch effort to save this land before copper mining begins and this land is irreversibly destroyed.
Republicans in Arizona have been attempting for years to trade away the beautiful national forest lands at Oak Flat in Arizona, which are considered holy by the Apache tribe. And until recently, they've failed for lack of support. But last December, in a deeply cynical and undemocratic move, Senators John McCain and Jeff Flake snuck last minute language into a must-pass defense bill transferring the land directly to the Rio Tinto mining company.2
Apache tribal leaders are planning a caravan to Washington, D.C. this month to protest this outrageous land giveaway. We're joining thousands of activists to help amplify their message and pressure Congress to stop the Apache land grab.
Sign the petition: Stop the Apache land grab and protect Native American holy land from copper mining. Click here to sign the petition.
It's hard to imagine politicians in Washington making the same deal for this land if it were considered sacred and holy by any other major religious group. But it's sadly in keeping with a history of Native American mistreatment and dislocation.
And this land isn't just important to the local Apache tribe – it's important to historians, archaeologists, and all Americans who care about preserving a crucial piece of U.S. and Native American culture. When asked about the significance of the land at Oak Flat, a professor at Simon Fraser University in Burnaby, Canada stated, "this is the best set of Apache archaeological sites ever documented, period, full stop."3
Foreign-owned mining giant Rio Tinto has repeatedly sought control of this copper-rich land over the past decade, lobbying Congress more than a dozen times since 2005.4 And it shouldn't come as a surprise that Senators McCain and Flake were behind this unprecedented corporate giveaway. McCain has received campaign contributions from Rio Tinto subsidiaries for years, and Flake – before being elected to Congress – actually lobbied for a Rio Tinto subsidiary in support of a massive uranium mine in Namibia.
We need to fight back against this deeply undemocratic move and show Washington that Americans won't stand by as our legislative process is twisted and sold off to the highest bidder.
Sign the petition: Protect Native American holy land from mining. Click here to sign the petition.
Thank you for your activism.

Community Quilt for Commonsense Mainer -- need more messages!
These are the blocks for CSM's star quilt
I last wrote about CSM's star quilt in April -- and in the interim, I've posted quilt diaries for four quilts regarding cancer and another for a star quilt for Emanuel AME Church in Charleston, scene of a brutal and racially motivated mass murder last month.
Michael has been so patient in waiting -- and Ann and I really want to get his quilt done and out to him. He is most deserving of a community quilt for all that he quietly does for the community, including organizing a road trip to see Cedwyn as she lay dying. And now he has a chronic disease, himself -- COPD -- which is not easy for him to bear. We intend to work on it simultaneously with the Emanuel AME Church quilt, now possible because Ann is on medical leave from her part time job.
We are 40 messages and $401 short for this quilt. I will keep these numbers updated!
The Arizona border - an eye-opening trip at NN15
We didn't get all the way down to the border at Nogales, but we did take a journey down from NN15 in Phoenix yesterday yesterday to visit with some of the great nonprofits and activists fighting for human rights along the border. We met some wonderful people and found out just how huge the crisis is down here; I can't even begin do it justice in one diary, but I do want to thank the Netroots staff for putting the trip together.
This is what 'black privilege' looks like
Just wow. This gave me goosebumps.
