Arts and Administration
This page provides advanced research assistance for students in Arts and Administration. Some areas of research are not covered here, but students are encouraged to use this resource as a specialized supplement to the getting started guide for Art and Art History.
Starting your research
If the research you are planning is of an art historical nature, the reference resources in the advanced Art History research guide will be the most useful to you. They include bibliograghies, biographical sources, encyclopaedias and other materials that focus on art history through the ages. The resources listed here include materials for research in some of the specific branches of the field of arts administration.
- Benedict, Stephen. Arts Management: An Annotated Bibliography New York: Center for Arts Information, 1980. AAA Z5956 .A7C63 1980
- Jones, Lois Swan. Art Information: Research Methods and Resources. 3rd ed. Dubuque: Kendall/Hunt, 1990. AAA Ref. N 85.J64 1990
A guide to the basic steps in conducting research in the visual arts. Examines almost all basic reference sources in art history and demonstrates how they can be used effectively.
- Jones, Lois Swan. Art Information and the Internet: How to Find It, How to Use It. Phoenix: Oryx Press, 1999. AAA Ref N59 .J66 1999
This is an excellent resource for finding information resources in art and architecture on the internet. However, with the rate at which the WWW changes, this reference may be out of date rather more quickly than most. It also includes print resources.
- Knell, Simon J., ed. A Bibliography of Museum Studies. Aldershot : Scolar Press; Brookfield, VT : Ashgate 1994. AAA Z5052 .K64 1994
- Woodhead, Peter and Geoffrey Stansfield. Keyguide to Information Sources in Museum Studies. 2nd ed. Chicago : Fitzroy Dearborn 1994. AAA AM5 >66 1994
- American Art Directory 2003-2004, 59th ed. New Providence, NJ : National Register Publishing, 2003. AAA Ref N50 .A54 59th ed 2003/04
Though the listings in the American Art Directory are sometimes startlingly less complete than it should be, this resource is valuable for the thoroughness of the information included in each entry. Additionally, there are some very helpful directories that are not duplicated in similar sources, such as the state by state list of newspaper art editors and critics, scholarships and fellowships organized by offering institution, geographically arranged listing of open exhibits, and traveling exhibition booking agents.
Grants and Foundations
- Cantarella, Gina-Marie, ed. National Guide to Funding in Arts and Culture. New York : Foundation Center, c2000. Knight Ref NX711 .U5N37 2000
Probably the most comprehensive resource listing foundations and corporations involved in grants and charirable giving to the arts and other cultural institutions. Information is organized by state and then alphabetically by grantmaker. Entries include the name and address of the grantmaker, brief financial data, the purpose, fields of interest and limitations. Recent arts and culture grants are also listed when available. This resource is extremely well indexed, with indexes to donors, officers & trustees; geographic points of focus; types of support; grantmaker by subject; grants by subject, and grantmaker names.
- Federal $$$$$ for the Arts. Arlington : EFRE, 1989. AAA Ref NX735 .F43 1989

Finding Articles
Art and Art History
- Art Index: Art Abstracts and Art Index Retrospective
Art Abstracts and Art Index Retrospective combined are the digital version of the old reference standby-- Art Index. Unfortunately the two databases can't be searched simultaneously, nor are both indexes available from the same online provider. Art Abstracts contains citations from 1984 on, and Art Index Retrospective contains citations prior to 1984. These popular indexes include material on art, photography, architecture, landscape architecture, museums, urban planning, and related fields from all periods and geographic areas. They are a good source for material on non-Western art. Art Abstracts is useful for searching for very current or marginalized artists. Citations in both databases are drawn from a fixed group of more than 300 journals, mostly in English. These indexes are especially useful for locating reproductions and book reviews.
- ArtBibliographies Modern
ARTbibliographies Modern. Oxford, Eng. and Santa Barbara CA: Clio Press Inc., 1969-1973. AAA REF Z5935. A7
Very important source for contemporary art, design and phootgraphy, expecially for European artists. contains abstracts and citatios from periodical articles, books, exhibition catalogs, and theses dealing with Western art from the yeeear 1800 to the present (however, beginning in 1988, subject coverage begins with 1900, exhept for photography which continues to be covered from 1839 to the present). This index also allows some fairly complex searching, so you will want to make use of the 'help" pages. Coverage in the online version of this index begins in 1974, but the paper index started in 1971. for those four earliest years, see the paper version in the A&AA reference section.
- Bibliography of the History of Art
Repertoire d'Art et d'Archaeologie. Paris : Bibliotheque d'art et d'archeologie, 1910-1989. AAA REF Z5937.R4
An important index for international art periodicals, BHA provides the best coverage of foreign language (primarily European languages) publications. BHA is the successor to the Repertoire International de la Litterature de l'Art (RILA) and the Repertoire d'Art et d'Archaeology (RAA). RILA is completely superceded by BHA, but RAA has only been converted to the digital format from 1990. To search RAA from 1910 to 1989, consult the paper volumes. BHA provides abstracts and citations to periodical articles from 2500 journal titles in English and 17 other European and Asian languages. Citations to books, conference proceedings, Festschriften, collected essays, exhibition catalogues, museum publications, and doctoral dissertations are also included. Like many art history research tools, there is a distinct slant towards western art history, and BHA may not be the best index for locating information on indigenous peoples nor very current or marginalized artists.
General and Multidisciplinary
The indexes listed below do not specialize in the literature of art and art history, but may be useful supplements to your research.
- Academic Search Elite
Contains abstracts and citations to over 2,880 journals, and full text coverage of more than 1,250 journal titles. Because this is a multidisciplinary index, the coverage of art journals is much more cursory. However, you will find material here that would not appear in an art index because of the multidisciplinary nature of the journal, or the interdisciplinary content of the article. Another benefit of using this index is the full text feature. Note that many articles are not available in full text, and that art journals may not provide full page images-- and therefore no art images.
- Arts and Humanities Search
This index is a multi-disciplinary index including other subject areas in the humanities. The virtue of this index is that it is a citation index. A citation index allows you to view the bibliography of an article, and also to see who has cited that article elsewhere.
- Business Source Complete
- Leisure, Recreation and Tourism Abstracts GV191.6.R86 Knight Reference
- TableBase
- AAAT Online: Abstracts of International Conservation Literature
Art & Archaeology Technical Abstracts. New York : Institute of Fine Arts, New York University, AAA Ref AM 1.I555
Coverage: 1 - 35 (1955 - 1999)
This index covers analysis, treatment, and techniques in restoration and preservation of art and architecture materials. It has a separate section dealing with "architectural conservation, including landscape gardening."

Just in time for summer grilling season, Consumer Reports tested more than 100 gas grills costing between $200 and $2,000.
Some grills do more than the basics, including one with a rotisserie that also has a side burner, perfect for keeping a pot boiling.
And you'll even find an oven in one Kenmore grill. Consumer Reports was able to bake a pretty good cake in the oven, although the bottom was darker than one baked in a regular oven.
In the lab, testers applied thermocouples to the grates to measure how evenly a grill distributes heat.
Pre-heating is important, too. Testers preheated the grills for 10 minutes to see whether that's enough, measuring the temperature and evenness across the grates.
Some grills did better than others.
Consumer Reports gave two of its top ratings to a pair of Weber grills.
Top rated this year: the mid-sized Weber Spirit model SP-320 46700401 for $600. The smaller Weber Spirit model E-220 46310001 for $450 also did an excellent job at high and low temperatures.
You can find those Weber grills at Home Depot, Lowe's and Walmart, and at Ace Hardware and other independent retailers. They come with a long, 10-year warranty on the burners, which is the most frequently replaced part.
On a budget? Consumer Reports' "Best Buy" was the Brinkmann 810-2545-C from Walmart for $260. However, it does not have a warranty as long as Weber's.

Life at Val de Vie Estate
Val de Vie presents the perfect balance between nature and world-class, authentic modern living. The estate is conveniently close to Cape Town (only 40 minutes away) the airport and several excellent schools, yet maintains an enviable country lifestyle. State-of-the-art security ensures peace of mind, while the surrounding Cape countryside creates a true sense of tranquility.
Sports enthusiasts will appreciate the estate's immediate neighbors Pearl Valley Golf Estate and Boschenmeer, as well as the opportunity to go horse riding on our estate trails and fly-fishing. Those who enjoy the finer things in life will delight in the culinary offerings of Franschhoek.
Residents qualify for numerous exclusive benefits, including:
- Exceptional sport facilities
- An on-site restaurant
- Discounts on wine purchases
- The opportunity to produce their own wine
- Hiking trails
- Picnic areas next to the Berg River
- Polo Fields and equestrian training field
The dedicated Home Owners Association (HOA) team is proud to manage and maintain the common property of Val de Vie, namely the protected fauna and flora areas, estate landscaping and gardens and the infrastructure including security, the roads and civil works.
We are also responsible for overseeing construction activity on the estate and welcome any of your Architectural, Building and Estate enquiries. Kindly contact us here.
True peace of mind
Val de Vie Estate, with its 8km of perimeter, is protected by a 2m high wrought-iron fence, concrete plinths and full electric fence. This fence serves as the base deterrent for criminal activities, making it very hard for perpetrators to gain access. Break-in attempts trigger alarms in the Val de Vie Control room as well as at our offsite monitoring centre. This allows investigations via our CCTV network or via our onsite patrol officers.
Val de Vie is equipped two access points. These points provide entrance via 11 vehicle access lanes and three turnstiles for contract workers. Strict access control measures are in place at these points and each point is monitored with an array of cameras. Val de Vie was one of the first estates in South Africa that implemented biometric-access control measures. This allows tracking of entrance/exit, and movement of persons, a highly useful control measure.
Residents are further safeguarded from unauthorised visitors via automated booms that control access to residential villages.
Guarding on the estate is a vital component of our security. Employing 21 staff, this complement is the friendly face at the access gates, the problem solvers, the investigators, the crime preventers. Patrols of the perimeter, estate and the surrounding areas (radius exceeds 5km) are performed daily.
During the last year, Val de Vie extended its monitoring services to an off-site monitoring centre. This separation of responsibilities keeps our security levels at the highest level possible.
Val de Vie has an active security committee. Under its leadership, a longterm strategy has been formulated. This ensures risks are continuously monitored and addressed. On the immediate radar is the installation of a thermal CCTV barrier with early warning detection capabilities. Staying ahead is vital to the estate.
This encompasses:
- the acquisition and implementation of the latest technology using over 40 thermal IP cameras along the perimeter of the property, to allow uniform images to be viewed in complete darkness or misty conditions.
- Video analytics as a proactive method of monitoring any intrusions not only gives early warning of a potential breach but it can also reduce perimeter property damage.
In progress is also the redesign and upgrading of the supporting electrical and IT networks infrastructure to allow for redundancy which will allow the system to be secure - even in times of power outages. The system is entirely IP based and compliant with ONVIF standards. Concurrently an electronic visitor enrollment solution will be implemented, to further improve the security and access at our entrances.
All of this will position Val de Vie as one of only two residential estates in the world with a full-cover thermal perimeter and will ensure that our fibre and electrical back-bone is adequate to incorporate any additional improvements for the next 10-15 years.
A ground-breaking and integrated Berg River Valley Security Initiative has also been formulated to address some of the crimes on a greater scale in the valley. This initiative aims to share intelligence amongst neighbouring estates and was brought about by various role-players and members of the community, the police, social services and management of luxury estates such as Val de Vie and Pearl Valley who met to devise a strategy to ensure a safe and secure rural environment where all can prosper and live with peace of mind.
The whole initiative is dependent on partnership policing between all role-players in this area, building a closer working relationship between the police and the public. This strategy aims to address the day-to-day crime prevention actions in the farming areas from Du Toit's Kloof and Klein Drakenstein through to Wemmershoek. The strategy entails monitoring the area by means of security cameras at vital entrance ways, such as the off-ramp from the N1 onto the Wemmershoek Road. Patrol vehicles will also be enlisted to cover the greater area including the farms by means of active patrolling.
All who choose to live in this wonderful Valley can unfortunately be exposed to crime in some way or another at a point in time - which is why the entire community must be involved with crime prevention as a major priority and work together; creating a network of crime-related and monitoring information. As stakeholders in the area we are adamant to develop the area into a safe haven for all who live here – making this Valley the place of choice to live in!

Rated 5 out of 5 by bjbck 5th lg item purchsed I just love my new dryer. It is my 5th item from Lg I have purchased. I can not say enough as to how much I just love Lg products. As I finish replacing older items I will be doing so with Lg products. I will always recommend Lg to anyone who asks my opinion. November 21, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by PattyOh This dryer has large capacity/is energy efficient I love this dryer. The large capacity is a big plus and it is energy efficient. I love the chimes at the end of the cycle to let you know the load is finished. The features are at the back and so easy to use. You can add water to the cycle with dry clothes to remove wrinkles. It does all I wanted and more. I recommend this machine highly. April 2, 2013
Rated 5 out of 5 by ortech715 AMAZING!!! LOVE LOVE LOVE this dryer!!! I love the size of this dryer, all the options, overall this is an amazing product. When I first got the dryer installed I had some clean clothes that didn't need washing but needed ironing, I threw them in the dry on steam and they came out looking like I just ironed them, good job LG! August 13, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by DarrenH Installed Easily. Drys Well. No hiccups during the install. Dryer runs efficiently and dry's clothes quickly. HUGE capacity. July 29, 2012
Rated 5 out of 5 by 360sim Good Quaility Dryer Like many of us we shop around a lot before buying a huge appliance and We really didn't want to buy into Kenmore's guess the actual brand your getting deal so We chose the LG SteamDryer 7.3 Cu. Ft. 14-Cycle dryer from Best Buy. I was a little leery switching from electric to gas but I am pleased so far. The dryer capacity was a big selling point for me. Having huge loads and I find that the larger to normal loads of clothes come out dry for the exception the jeans they always seem to need another 20 mins., which you do have the option to increase the time and heat. I do find that for small loads like less than 10 items the don't dry well and come out wrinkled. This dryer can hold bulky bed spreads, blankets and pillows and drying is no problem another good selling point for us. The dryer also came with a shoe or drying rack which helps when drying sweaters or shoes. The lint trap is inside the dryer which I love and you do need to clean it after every cycle. The display panel lights up when on and has sound too. Press the power button and then turn the dial to select drying cycle then press the options.. Drying cycles cotton/normal. casual (perm press), Heavy Duty, Bulky Bedding, Anti bacterial, steam sanitary, steam fresh, Delicates, Towels, sports wear,small load, speed dry, air dry & rack dry. Drying options - Drying level from very dry to damp dry, Temp Control from High to ultra low, time dry from 60 mins. to 20 mins, Beeper adjust the volume or turn it off. and there are even more buttons like reduce static , easy iron, custom program and damp dry beep. Then once you've made you selections press the play/pause button next to the dial and drying starts. When its done it will play a little tune for you. The steam feature is nice for those items that need freshen up. My model came with the smart diagnosis where you put your phone to the power button and somehow they talk to the dryer to find out what's wrong with it.. I haven't used this option so I really can't comment on how well it works. The only problems or issues I have is my dryer door is tight so you have to shut it hard. Other than that it is a very good dryer and I am happy with it. Not related to the dryer but our Best Buy delivery service men were horrible, They refused to install our appliances and marked up our walls. It took my husband only 20 mins. to hook both appliances up but we paid for the delivery & installation. April 29, 2012
Rated 3 out of 5 by kayk On my second one, still probs I don't know if I'm just unlucky or this dryer model does. The first dryer had a bad circuit board (the low-water light for the steam never came on). The second had bad rollers (made a bump-bump noise when turned on). Luckily, both were under warranty and Sear's has been great about it. Other than that, the dryer works pretty well. There are a lot of options though I'm often having to go back to the manual to figure it out. Not as user-friendly as I thought it would be. My biggest complaint is that the clothes never are fully dry. What's up? This is a dryer, right?? That's really annoying. It's not doing what it's supposed to do! So, I have to keep drying or choose Dry More. Regarding features, my biggest issue is that you have to choose the Wrinkle Care option every time; On my other dryer, you could set it to all the time and that was convenient. With the LG products, you have to remember too much (like with the washer, you have to remember to choose Fabric Softener every time - I use it all the time, so that's annoying). The dryer was very expensive, so for value and the problems, I think it should be less $. November 16, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by Raz amazing Twelve years have passed since I purchased a dryer. The technology of the new LG dryer provides every feature one could dream if. The unit is extremely quiet and so energy efficient. Set up and learning the features and operation is quick and logical. Truly a wonderful product. October 27, 2011
Rated 5 out of 5 by mom Awesome dryer... Pretty dryer, simple quiet, easy to use and did I say quiet. Drys fast also...love that! Lots of settings and easy to use. The steam dry is awesome! Worth all the funds saved! October 21, 2011
Your dryer shouldn't just dry clothes. It should save you time by giving you more room to do less loads. It should make your clothes feel fresh in no time and your life feel easier by reducing wrinkles and static cling. There's so much a dryer a should do, and this does so much more.

Where is the money to regenerate Alvaston?
Posted: February 11, 2013|
I READ with interest in the Derby Telegraph of February 4, a letter by Councillor Linda Winter urging groups to go for cash available to them until March 31.
However, this does not address the real issue in Alvaston, which desperately needs regeneration overall, not just groups who help youngsters. I do feel that this is good news for youth groups, but our local councillors have neglected Alvaston as a whole. I ask Ms Winter what is she doing to help Alvaston progress.
Councillor Paul Bayliss states that, if necessary, he can find the money to try to get the HS2 station in Derby. Where is this coming from? If this money can be found, why can't it be found to regenerate Alvaston?
I feel that Alvaston are the poor relations in Derby, always ignored. If you feel the same, write to the Derby Telegraph or Mr Bayliss.

If you have a food processor, there's no need to pay big bucks for gourmet
nut butters when they're so easy to make. Substitute this recipe anywhere
you'd use peanut butter. You can use this recipe for any type of nut.
1 cup unsalted macadamia nuts
1/8 tsp. salt
1 tsp. macadamia nut oil (or oil of choice)
Toast nuts in a skillet on medium heat, stirring often, until fragrant and very
lightly browned, about eight to 10 minutes.
Combine toasted nuts, salt, and oil in a food processor. Pulse, scraping the sides
as needed, until you reach a smooth consistency, about 5 minutes, depending on how
creamy you want the final product. Store in an airtight container in the refrigerator
for several weeks. Makes about 1 cup, or 8 servings.
To make honey cinnamon mac nut butter, add 2 tsp. honey and 1 tsp. cinnamon. Or
come up with your own combination of add-ins: vanilla extract, cocoa powder, instant
coffee, shredded coconut, other nuts, or any combination of these. Be creative!

- the maker
Jenny Krauss
Here's the thing about Jenny Krauss' company: it's not about her. Jenny began making baby and home gifts 20 years ago, but has spent the last 10 years providing work for Bolivian and Peruvian artisans, often women with exceptional skills and few options for work.
"The women are often the sole support for their families and the work they do for me has not only helped them financially, but psychologically as well. They speak to me about lack of opportunity and how meaningful it is to create something they can sell. It's a joy to visit them and see changes in their lives."
When she started her company in 1999, Jenny didn't know a thing about business. She had studied art and design. "I didn't have a big plan for my life, but I'm happy that things turned out the way they did. I always knew I'd be involved with creativity and beautiful things.
These days Jenny lives in New York and enjoys designing new products and visiting artisans. "Office work is a drag." She travels to Bolivia and Peru to meet with Fair Trade artisans and to provide them with new projects. "It's important to give and empower those less fortunate. Most people don't have a lot of opportunity to better their lives, so it feels good to be able to contribute something empowering and sustainable."

I use it usually when I go out to shop. I cannot wear perfume in my workplace. I enjoy wearing it while I'm out, because I want others to enjoy the smell of it as well. Although it may be strong at first, the scent does not last throughout the entire day. Re-application is needed if you wish for it to last longer than 6-8 hours. Amount of time it stays on you depends on each person of course.
It's such a wonderful perfume. I purchased it the second I smelt the sample.

Comments about Parisienne Perfume:
I think that fragrance can be used anytime: if you are a strong_fragrance_addict - use it all day long,if you are more conservative - use it for special occasions. The smell is complicated in a good sense of word. You will feel rose, blackberry and cranberry at first, although the fragrance is not too fruity and sweet. the base of this fragrance consists of peony, violet and musk. The smell of sandal wood finishes the composition and gives a wonderful loop. I recommend Parisienne to a joyful girl that wants and likes to attract attention.

Comments about Parisienne Perfume:
This perfume makes me feel like a powerful woman. You would think that such an elegant perfume does not fit adventurous young women traveling around the world, but I just think it is truly perfect. It is long lasting and the smell is really charming. It gives me the confidence of a parisienne without the arrogance. I would recommend this perfume, not only to a friend, but to anyone who wants to feel elegant and confident. I just love it!

I've heard about Pulau Ubin among colleagues and how it's great for trekking and biking. Trekking I can handle but biking, I've no skills for that. But thanks to a promo offered online, I decided to brave it and erase biking as one of the must-try while there.
Pulau Ubin is basically still a part of Singapore. So, no need to show your passport and go through immigration.
To get there, head to Changi Point Ferry Terminal Changi Jetty. It's right off Changi Bus Interchange.

COLUMBIA CITY — "Each rib showed on the dog, as well as the entire contour of the spine. The hip bones also protruded out."
In a case report, Whitley County Sheriff's K9 handler, Jason Spencer, described the condition of two dogs he found at a rural Columbia City home Wednesday night.
The two animals, Albos and Ruby, were removed from the Doug Shearer residence at 2690 N. CR 450 E. after police found the canines severely malnutritioned.
Line Street Veterinary Hospital's Veterinarian Carol Hainje said while both dogs are in poor condition, Albos, a male lab mix, is at least 25 pounds underweight.
According to the case report, Shearer didn't answer the door at his home when police attempted to make contact with him.

Promotional Portfolios, Padfolios, and Jotters
Promotional portfolios, padfolios, and jotters address a need common to business people while also responding to a marketing opportunity for any business. These custom printed jotters and portfolios provide a convenient portable source of paper for writing down phone numbers, things to remember and other important information. At the same time, they advertise a business consistently and effectively by including a printed logo on the front face. These padfolios and notebooks are great for handing out to customers you come across on the job and at trade shows. And jotters make excellent gifts as a thank you for business. Promotional portfolios, padfolios, and jotters are great to have at the office, too. If a company is going to buy these products anyway, it might as well get them custom printed and save money buying them in promotional quantities.
Affordable Printed Jotters for Customers
Our promotional portfolios, padfolios, and jotters include many items perfectly suited for giving to customers of a business. Create a more lasting connection with your clientele and encourage the development of a long term relationship with a free promotional business supply gift that they can legitimately use. Custom printed jotters and portfolios come in handy at home and on the road. They can be used to write down things like grocery and to do lists, or to take down phone messages. Promotional portfolios, padfolios, and jotters are great to have around the house. They're not just for use in the office; any one of us can always use a handy place to jot things down and take down notes on topics of importance or interest to us.
Promotional printed padfolios and jotters are simple, informal, and yet professional all at the same time. Jotter and padfolios get the job done without being pretentious about it. They're inexpensive to purchase, especially at low promotional pricing. And portfolios are convenient to use just about anywhere. Your business can gather up an order of these promotional portfolios, padfolios, and jotters and let your customer know you appreciate them in a very simple yet useful way. Invest in a gift that will go to good use. Make sure the promotions you participate in lead to prolonged visibility for your logo and contact information. Create a sustained connection with your clients and watch your brand grow and name recognition increase. These are the kinds of gifts that can also lead to increased rates of referrals from past and present customers to potential new ones.
Promotional Portfolios for Trade Shows
At trade shows, these promotional gifts can be great giveaways to new contacts who sign up for in home estimates, consultations or product quotes. It is also great to have something to give to a new customer whose business you win at one of these shows. If you are a service oriented company like a remodeling business, obviously the work you do won't be completed when you and the customer shake hands and sign the contract. But if you can give them handsome printed promotional portfolios or padfolios before they head out of your booth, it strengthens the connection you've made and gives them a takeaway from the meeting before you ever set foot on their property and begin your work.
Imprinted Padfolios for the Office
Our promotional portfolios, padfolios, and jotters are perfect for use in the office as well. There is no reason your business promotion efforts need to be limited to outside the office. Your people can advertise the company everywhere they go as well. Choose promotional portfolios, padfolios, and jotters for office paper supplies and maximize marketing opportunities.

Now, when your boxes are dry you will need to add a waterfall. I let my 9 year old do this. Then I went back over her lines with really thick blue paint on the brush and let it run down a bit and dry that way. So that it looks like water running down the mountainy thing.
"You were taught, with regard to your former way of life, to put off your old self...to be made new in the attitude of your minds; and to put on the new self, created to be like God in true righteousness and holiness." Ephesians 4:22-24

Making Dinosaur World
Now, when your boxes are dry you will need to add a waterfall. I let my 9 year old do this. Then I went back over her lines with really thick blue paint on the brush and let it run down a bit and dry that way. So that it looks like water running down the mountainy thing.

Too cute and so creative! What fun!!ReplyDelete
You are a genius! Great idea, and something she will LOVE LOVE LOVE! Plus, it saves all kinds of money. Well done!ReplyDelete
You must have been an art major and not an education major.ReplyDelete
Great job, Brenda! But. I will not be saying, "Hey Grace and Ryan! Look what my friend did for her daughter!" Just be satisfied with the fact that I am impressed. I wouldn't want them to get any ideas, you know?
SO not an art major! I do draw some good stick figures though.ReplyDelete
I know what you mean--a friend of mine just got her kids a dog. I'm hiding that little fact from my kiddos. Wouldn't want them to get any ideas!
Too cool!ReplyDelete
But yeah, I'm with Karly. This will remain our little secret, ok?
I was chuckling the whole way through that. That is so cool! And I'm so sad there's not a single child I could possibly make it for...unless I can reverse time until my brother is little again - he'd have loved that! I don't think at 21 he'd appreciate it so much. ;)ReplyDelete
Oh but Molly the possiblilites are endless! You could make a football field, an army scene, Star Wars...Cinderella's ball, Polly Pocket world....whatever a child loves!ReplyDelete
Good job! I'll have to file to try and make something like this for my younger grandchildren. Good arts and crafts project.ReplyDelete
Cool! Oh, and Molly, if you're reading this -- Aurelia just got some wooden dino magnets, and she is having a ton of fun playing with them. So if you're really dying to make something... ;-)ReplyDelete
Wow! That is awesome. Unfortunately, we finished up dinos back in Aug or Sept. Indy would love it if we did that, but we're still trying to finish up Egypt (we've all been sick for almsot 2 weeks) so we can move on to Greece and Rome. I'll file that away though and maybe we can use it for a different project.ReplyDelete
I don't get to talk to a lot of actual grown-ups during the day, so your comments make me really happy! :)

CLEMSON - She was nurtured in Upstate South Carolina and has spent nearly the past three decades close by in Clemson, but the Lowcountry will always be Linda White's second home.
After all, White would never have been able to pilot the positive change she has without embracing a sport she initially wasn't interested in coaching. She later would be named the finest high school coach in the country in that sport a decade later.
White has been entrenched at Clemson since 1986 in various roles as coach, administrator and community service coordinator, but her 14 years living in Mount Pleasant and coaching volleyball at Wando High School are too precious to forget. The day isn't long enough to list off all her favorite stories and standout pupils.
"Holy moly, you do not have time to hear all the memories I have," White said. "Whenever someone asks me things like that, I always tell them that the best memories I have are the young women I worked with. I still stay in touch with them; I hear from them quite frequently. They're still in my heart."
These days, White has morphed from Clemson volleyball coach (a consistent 136-81 mark from 1986-91, with at least 20 wins all six years) to associate athletic director (overseeing women's sports) and ultimately to a newly created position.
She's director of community relations, fostering the Solid Orange Squad and Be a T.I.G.E.R. programs that encourage Clemson student-athletes to give back.
Raised in Travelers Rest, a small town just north of Greenville, and earning her undergraduate degree at Winthrop, White married her husband, Roger, in 1970. A year later, the couple moved to the Charleston area as Roger attended Baptist College (now Charleston Southern) on a basketball scholarship.
Linda started out teaching physical education at Park Circle Elementary School, but she preferred working with high school students. A year before the creation of Wando, principal Luther Bergen offered White a P.E. position, with a caveat.
"Mr. Bergen told me that I could have the job if I would be willing to coach the volleyball team there," White said. "The whole time, I'm thinking, wow, I really don't want to coach volleyball. But I want a job, so that's what I did."
For 14 years. White would be named National Volleyball Coach of the Year in 1982, along the way adding basketball coaching to her duties, helping to organize the South Carolina Coaches Association for Women's Sports and institute North-South All-Star girls' events in the state.
Agent of change
It's less about the victories on the court White cherishes and more about the change. Change in girls' and women's sports she began as a high school coach in Mount Pleasant and continued at the college ranks in Clemson.
"When I was coming along, we played in college without any money whatsoever, whereas guys had full scholarships," White said. "That was the starting point. Since that time, I've seen so many opportunities."
When White took over Clemson volleyball in 1986, she was the athletic department's only woman who was not an administrative assistant. Today, Clemson employs four female administrators and four head coaches alone, another reason why in 2003, White was bestowed South Carolina's Pathfinder Award for contributions for athletics.
"Oh, it's awesome. We helped add women's soccer, rowing, added a women's trainer, women's coaches," White said. "I guess those opportunities are the biggest."
In 2005, White stepped down from her administrative post, but she wasn't through working with students. She kept feeling the pull to help; in part because 10 years prior, Roger and Linda lost their daughter, Lucia, in a car accident.
"Athletics have helped me hold it together," White said. "I wanted the athletes to understand how much they mean to each other and to learn about giving."
So then-athletic director Terry Don Phillips gave the opportunity-giver a unique opportunity.
"When I asked him if I could run a program," White said, "he gave me free reign and basically let me write my job description, which in this day and time sometimes unheard of.
"I actually have adopted the teaching of character as part of the core curriculum. So maybe there's a way that we could give teachers and school personnel a way to teach character in their schools."
That's the "Be A T.I.G.E.R.!" initiative, which places current Tigers in the classrooms of elementary and middle schools as role models. The program has expanded with field days, reading programs and email buddy setups.
The name came from former Clemson football player Michael Wade, who told his local newspaper when he chose to attend the school he always wanted to "be a Tiger." The connection: Wade's father, Mike, was on Clemson's 1981 national championship team, and his mom, Elizabeth, played for Clemson volleyball. In high school, Elizabeth took part in the all-star volleyball event coached and created by White.
That's why White's high school volleyball career (even if sparked by circumstance) won't leave her mind. And neither will Mount Pleasant, which Linda and Roger visit every spring for the Cooper River Bridge Run. Although plans are still young, they've considered owning property in the Lowcountry.
"We come back for vacations and stay in touch with a lot of the people down there who were so special," White said. "I love it."
After a successful 14-year stint coaching Wando volleyball, Linda White led Clemson to six consecutive 20-win seasons at the college ranks.×

1 cup
butter, softened
2/3 cup
firmly packed brown sugar
2/3 cup
white sugar
2 teaspoons
vanilla extract
1 cup
all-purpose flour

baking powder

2 cups
quick-cooking rolled oats
1 1/4 cups
chocolate chips, divided
These were good, but I think "brownie" threw me off a bit. I was expecting a decadent chocolate/cinnamon delight, but it's more like an oatmeal raisin (w/out the raisin) cookie bar than a brownie. Interesting change of pace, but not sure I'd make them again. THANKS for the recipe!
Loved this recipe! It was easy to make a smaller batch (I adjusted it to 6 servings and made it in a small pie pan).

What can an individual do to reduce Ozone depletion
You can make a difference by these actions:
Unplug electronics from the wall when not in use
Don't use regular incandescent light bulbs
Switch to compact fluorescent lightbulbs
Follow 3R Rule - Recycle, Reduce, and Reuse
Avoid heavily packaged products
Carpool, bike, or walk instead of driving alone
Plant a tree
Buy fresh produce at you local farmer's market
Use energy efficient appliances
Watch this video to learn more:
Reduce gasoline usage, plant more trees, and do more recycling.
Linda Perkin
I am interested in finding out in what way our church might best help out in preserving our enviroment. What are the things that we can recycle or cut the use of in order to help make a difference as a congregation?
Linda Perkin
Tony, As far as the recycling, I know plastic grocery bags, newspapers and magazines, alum. cans, glass jars, are there others? We all try to pass things on to others when they no longer meet our needs. Do you know of an organization that overhauls old appliances for people in need?
Alternate chemicals and fuels which will not cause pollution must be discovered to reduce green house gases emission.
Every thing what is happening as global warming is made by man and he must find the solution to protect the earth.
Pollution and waste should not be put into the enviroment faster than the enviroment can degrade and recycle them or render them harmless.
David Dakrou
Try to find out more alternate resources and show it to the government.
Can anyone list at least 5 ways to prevent any further global warming?
Oscar R.
I have been trying for more than ten years to get someone in an influential position to try an experiment with ozone layer supplementation. As yet no leader has taken the cue. I have created a website hoping to create general interest in the possibility of a proactive response. You can check it out at www.project-ozone.org and perhaps you or some one you know can help make the importsnt difference. If we do nothing but watch the problem, it will continue for at least the next 65 years or so according to the latest revised estimates from NOAA, NASA, and the WMO. Let's do what our politicians won't. Let's make the difference and show our leaders how it's done.
Diana Jonas
we can always use 1 dumping side in the community, in order 2 decrease land pollution,and so as to easy help us collect renewable resources.

Project Runway Insiders Dish on Designer Ven Budhu's Rude Behavior, and What You Didn't See On-Camera – Exclusive
Sorry, Ven Budhu. Project Runway fans (and insiders) just won't let your behavior go unpunished.
Nothing has caused more controversy on Season 10 of Project Runway than designer Ven Budhu showing a shocking lack compassion for "Everyday Woman" client Terri during Episode 6, "Fix My Friend." With insensitive comments like "My client doesn't really have a shape. She doesn't have any sense of style whatsoever," who can blame Terri for being in tears, or fans for turning against Ven?
At the Project Runway Season 10 Wrap Party and launch of Lord & Taylor's Project Runway capsule collection at Lord & Taylor's flagship store in New York City, we cornered some PR insiders to get their take on how Ven handled himself, the reality of dealing with real-world clients, and the bright side (yes!) of Terri's experience on the show.
While Season 9 winner Anya Ayoung-Chee didn't catch the episode, she heard about Ven's behavior and feels that a successful designer needs to be prepared to work with all women, especially if you're going to be on Project Runway. "You can't really be picky about whether you want to design for them or not," she tells Wetpaint Entertainment exclusively, adding, "If it's your design, it's your problem, not the person."
Season 8 and All Stars Season 1 contestant Michael Costello doesn't hold back when he's asked about the Ven controversy. "He's here and f— him! Quote, end quote." Yikes! How do you really feel, Michael?
He also explains that, as a professional designer, your focus should be on what the client wants, not what you want. "Your job as a designer is to make her happy, make her look good," he says. "Find out what the best parts of her as a woman are, that she wants to feature. Find out what she looks good in and help her the best that you can." Makes sense to us.
With so much focus on the negative experience Terri had as a client working with Ven, we were surprised to see a spring in her step (and a smile on her face) when she walked the runway in the very same episode. Turns out, there was more to the story.
When we spoke to Season 10 Lead Hair Designer Johnny Lavoy, we were relieved to discover that Terri's experience wasn't all bad. After hair and makeup, the tears stopped and a smile emerged.
"[Terri] was crying and crying; she was just really upset," he reveals. "But she stopped crying and smiled after she got her hair done. Then she said, 'This has been the best part of this whole experience. I love my hair.'"
The experience didn't just turn Terri's day around, it became Johnny's most memorable moment of the season. "Knowing that I was able to diffuse that situation a bit and make it so she didn't regret the whole experience — I mean, if she had a really bad haircut experience, can you imagine? Because she was so happy with that, that was really one of my favorite moments."
Ours too, Johnny.
We can't wait to see what drama the designers stir up next. Catch an all-new episode of Project Runway tonight, September 6, 2012 at 9 p.m. ET/PT on Lifetime.

We've had Nickelback fever since we previewed the band's video for "When We Stand Together" last month. Nickelback's performance last night on Jimmy Kimmel Live did nothing to abate our fever, either — with Chad Kroeger's raw vocal and a stage literally set alight by theatrical flame throwers, Nickelback burned the house to the ground. With their awesome performance of "Burn It To The Ground," not because they actually set fire to anything (other than our hearts, figuratively speaking). Nickelback's roaring, metal sound was decidedly harder than their post-grunge beginnings, and even from behind a screen we couldn't help but do a sneaky head bang.

Republican activists foresee a long presidential campaign that almost certainly will nominate Mitt Romney but may leave him weakened in the fall.
Interviews Wednesday with GOP officials and strategists in several states find no panic or calls for Romney to crank up his criticisms of Rick Santorum.
But several people say they worry that continued attacks on Romney may inflict wounds that won't fully heal in time for the November contest with President Barack Obama.
Some GOP officials are urging Santorum and Newt Gingrich to step aside. Others say a long primary won't hurt the party.

Solved: Working modeline for 1366x768 (1360x768) for Samsung LE-32R71B - 32" LCD TV
I just simply couldn't get 1366x768 to work with my brand new TV.
First somebody pointed me to my manual that could tell me that it really was a 1360x768 TV and not 1366x768, as the marketing hype said.
Further, without a modeline it complained that it was an unknown mode, so I found a modeline here in the forums, but with somebody else's modeline, I could see that it was running 1360x768 both with xwininfo -root, but the image wasn't centered in the screen and it looked horrible!
After getting EDID to work (My solution to "Failure reading EDID parameters": New VGA cable), I saw this in the EDID output of startx -- -logverbose 5
(II) NVIDIA(0): Supported additional Video Mode: (II) NVIDIA(0): clock: 85.5 MHz Image Size: 885 x 498 mm (II) NVIDIA(0): h_active: 1360 h_sync: 1424 h_sync_end 1536 h_blank_end 1792 h_border: 0 (II) NVIDIA(0): v_active: 768 v_sync: 771 v_sync_end 777 v_blanking: 795 v_border: 0
Modeline "1360x768" 85.5 1360 1424 1536 1792 768 771 777 795
For some reason, any change I ever make to xorg.conf or XFree86.conf always means hours of work. Why the EDID output can't be used to generate the Modeline automatically is beyond me, but hey, now I have fine 1360x768 working! And I hope you'll have luck in the black art of xorg.conf too!

The Center for Integrated Fungal Research (CIFR) is comprised of seven laboratories, at North Carolina State University: the Fungal Genomics Lab (Dr. Ralph Dean who is also CIFR's founding director), the Fungal Parasitism and Mycology Lab (Dr. Gary Payne who is also CIFR's associate director), the Molecular Fungal Interactions Lab (Dr. Margo Daub), the Fungal Ecology and Population Biology Lab (Dr. Marc Cubeta), the Fungal Evolution and Molecular Biology Lab (Dr. Ignazio Carbone), and the Molecular Genetics, Host-Pathogen Interactions Lab (Dr. Paola Veronese), and the Quantitative Epidemiology Lab (Dr. Peter Ojiambo). CIFR faculty collaborate to achieve significant breakthroughs in fungal research that will impact human welfare worldwide.
The Center for Integrated Fungal Research at North Carolina State University has several major scientific goals:
- the discovery and analysis of complete gene sets from major plant pathogenic and industrially important fungal species;
- the understanding of genome organization, population biology and fungal evolution; whole genome reconstruction; and comparative and global functional analyses to decode the molecular basis of disease caused by fungal pathogens.
- provide training and instruction for students, post doctoral fellows and visiting scientists in fungal biology and genomics.
In addition, CIFR has goals to develop human capital resources. CIFR will provide collaborative and innovative research opportunities, undergraduate and graduate training, and pre-college educational outreach designed to:
- create and disseminate original knowledge to scientists, students, industry, and society;
- educate a new generation of scientists who recognize and understand the importance of genomics research;
- increase the participation of underrepresented groups in the field of scientific research;
- increase scientific literacy in the K-12 classroom.
CIFR is currently housed in the Partners III Building on Centennial Campus at NCSU. Centennial Campus is NCSU's vision of a "techopolis" mixing the complementary benefits of university faculty, students and research centers with industry and government counterparts, as well as a blend of large, small and entrepreneurial businesses.

Though that hit came well after the Zombies had disbanded, and keyboardist vocalist Rod Argent had already formed the similarly stellar rock group that bore his last name—and Zombie vocalist Colin Blunstone was working his way to his own successful solo career—the Zombies' legacy only grew with time.
Fortunately, popular demand and fortunate circumstances have paired Argent and Blunstone once again all these years later. Drawing considerable acclaim for a series of live performances during the last few years, the reconstituted Zombies released 2004's As Far As I Can See, and, most recently Breathe Out, Breathe In, a superb new album just released in the States a few weeks ago. An admirable set that respectably carries on the band's very solid legacy, the album is a remarkable testament to the fact that pure unadulterated talent—whatever decade it might be displayed—will always rise to the top.
Y! Music was thrilled to host the Zombies this March at Austin's South By Southwest conference, during a Saturday night performance that was one of the festival's very best—and one which displayed a band still at the peak of their powers. We were likewise thrilled by an uplifting chat with band mainstays Argent and Blunstone, who gave us their very long-term perspective on all things Zombie all these years later, which we think you'll enjoy very much. Between that and the accompanying live performance, also lensed at this years SXSW fest, you'll have a great indication of what's made this band one of the most acclaimed in the history of rock 'n' roll. And that's no lie.

Spawn Artist, Szymon Kudranski, To Attend New York Comic Con
New Series Artist's First US Convention Appearance This Year
Thursday, October 06, 2011
Todd McFarlane Productions is pleased to introduce our resident Spawn artist, Szymon Kudranski, at this year's New York Comic Con. In his first 2011 US appearance, Kudranski will be on hand to greet fans at two separate signings, and will also be a part of Todd McFarlane's The Devil is in the Details panel.
Discovered by McFarlane on Twitter in October 2009, Szymon Kudranski has wowed fans old and new alike with his breathtaking hyper realistic art. Already 15 issues in, Szymon continues to push the boundaries of the title artistically. "I've never worked with an artist who drives himself the way Szymon does," said Managing Editor, Jen Cassidy. "His art has evolved so much since his debut in Spawn #201, and it's all because of his work ethic and determination. I can't wait for fans to be able to meet him in person in New York!"
Kudranski adds, "America is the core of comics books and entertainment. It's a great privilege to meet Spawn fans at the show. I'm a Spawn fan myself! I know how I felt being at my first convention back in 2006 in NYCC. I was this annoying kid who wanted to show Todd my art, and work with him. It didn't happen at the time, but five years later, at the same show, I'm featured as his Spawn artist. It all came full circle and it's great being part of the Spawn team."
The New York Comic Con takes place Wednesday, October 13th-16th at the Javits Center. Catch Kudranski at all his singings and events on Saturday, October 15th. See below for all the details!

If everest had been lower
I'll climb it always
If I'd got the power
Fair sights will no longer be a menace
If I'd been as strong as an iron
I'll always fight with the lion
If you'd been what I thought you are
I'll cry that you've walked away
I'll never miss you for a moment
My love is not latent
You aren't worth it.
