I actually purchased this necklace along with the matching earrings at a store near where I live. To look at them you'd think these would be heavy, but I can hardly notice I'm wearing them. Same goes for the necklace. Both are beautiful works of art with intricate engraved pictures on the silver. I would recommend this set to anyone! Namaste, Karen

I was just watching a video on the UK only Tremonti SE Custom and, though the guitars sounds great, I couldn't help wonder while watching how it sounds aside from someone nailing some nice blues licks. Kind of the one thing that sucks about youtube demos is that the players generally do play either bluesy or solo a lot. Not sure if it's due to copyright kind of things or what, but you rarely ever hear them play how a majority of the guitar playing public actually plays when trying a guitar out, by playing things a bit more familiar such as songs and whatnot.
Which brings me to this post. When you try out a guitar, whether it be in a store, some random persons fiddle, etc, what are your go to things you to see if a fiddle is for you.
Myself, I go to Drop D and play some Creed riffs before tuning down a full step to see how much clarity the guitar can keep when tuned down a little and play some of my own bands tunes. So how about you all?

POTSDAM - Amanda Clapper 14 grew up playing sports and has been in competitions of all kinds, including soccer games and swimming matches.
None of it compares to the intensity of a FIRST Robotics Competition (FRC), according to Clapper, an environmental engineering major and robotics team leader.
The kids who are at these events have more energy and are more excited to be there than kids Ive seen at sporting events. No matter what, its a bunch of fun, Clapper, an environmental engineering major, said. Its always a standing ovation when someone wins something.
One of the two FIRST teams sponsored by Clarkson, Team 4124, was a regional winner at the BAE Systems/Granite State Regional in Manchester, N.H., on March 2 and will advance to The FRC Championship in St. Louis, Mo., in April.
A team of 25 Clarkson undergraduates serve as mentors for approximately 50 high school students from the Salmon River and Massena central school districts as they design, build, program, test and prepare a human-sized robot for competition over the course of six weeks.
This years FIRST Robotics Competition game, Ultimate Ascent, involved robots competing in alliances of three-on- three on a 27-by-54-foot field over two days of qualifying and elimination matches. The goal was for each robot trio to shoot as many Frisbees as possible into their scoring zones within two minutes and 15 seconds; 45 teams from across the U.S. and Canada competed at the Manchester Regional.
The robots had to navigate through the opposing alliance, which would attempt to block their Frisbee shots. The competition includes an autonomous period where the robots are programmed to score on their own and a teleoperator period where the robots are controlled remotely by the high school students.
Many things are happening in real time, said Team Advisor and Clarkson University Associate Professor of Electrical & Computer Engineering James J. Carroll. A lot of quick decisions have to be made in coordination with your alliance partners in order to successfully play the game.
Clarksons other FIRST team, Team 229, made it to the quarterfinal round at Manchester. That team will have another chance to win at the Boston Regional later this month and could also advance to the Championship Event in St. Louis.
Win or lose, the resulting experience is invaluable for exposing high school students to exciting science, technology, engineering and mathematics (STEM) concepts while developing a strong sense of civic responsibility and leadership skills among Clarkson student mentors, said Carroll. He also credits Massena and Salmon River robotics team coaches Steve Robert and Darcie Fregoe for their active participation in the program as a major factor in the teams success.
Libby Kamen 13, a former team leader, said the FIRST experience doesnt just expose high school students to the STEM disciplines. It also opens them to the possibilities of life and education after high school. Massena and Salmon River students have many opportunities to experience the Clarkson campus during their time on the FIRST team.
Were able to teach them about engineering and teamwork, Kamen said. But were also able to show them that a college education is something they can obtain and aspire to.
Clarksons FIRST Robotics teams are part of the SPEED (Student Projects for Engineering Experience & Design) program, one of the Wallace H. Coulter School of Engineering hallmark initiatives, exemplifying Clarksons defy convention approach to education.
SPEED promotes multidisciplinary, project-based learning opportunities for more than 350 undergraduates annually. Projects involve engineering design, analysis, and fabrication. In addition, students learn real-world business skills, such as budget management, effective teamwork, and communications skills.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
At a Carbon Chamber of Commerce luncheon on Thursday State Senator David Hinkins and Representative Christine Watkins talked at some length about the 2012 session of the legislature and what was accomplished.
"There were over 1,300 bills introduced during the session," said Watkins. "We passed 480 of them in 45 days. On the last evening of the session you would have thought you were at a fire sale or an auction, they were being presented so quickly."
Hinkins said he thought the session was very productive saying that it was the "first time we didn't need to make cuts while I have been in the Senate."
This year the state had more money and was able to keep many programs intact, despite the fact in the prior three large cuts had to be made to make the budget balance.
Each of the legislators brought up bills they had introduced and had passed, and they also discussed some of the more controversial issues to come out of the session this year. An example of that discussion was House Bill 148 which is intended to make the federal government adhere to the Enabling Act which stated that they should turn over federal lands in the state within a reasonable period of time. Utah became a state in 1896 and in that 116 years the federal government has not turned over the nearly 60 percent of lands it owns within Utah to the state. Some feel it is time for the national government to do that.
"They either need to do that or they pay taxes on the land like every other private land owner must." said Hinkins. "They need to pay up if they want to keep the land.The federal government does pay a tax on the land to the state called a PILT (Payment in Lieu of Taxes) but it is at a greatly reduced rate from what the land would bring if it were in private hands.
He pointed out that the litigation that will come as a result of the bill has many partners participating in it, but that SITLA (school trust lands) said they don't want to contribute any money toward the fight.
Hinkins also is concerned about the national government and even the state's attitude toward coal and the coal industry.
"I don't want any legislative body mandating that coal should not be used for power generation or industry," he stated.
Watkins pointed out that the BEAR program (Business Expansion and Retention) that started in Carbon County has now expanded to other parts of the state in a big way.
She also pointed out that the Miners Bill passed, which pushes the medical care for coal miners.
"Before it was almost like the fox was watching the henhouse in the way the money was being used," she said referring to the fact that much of the money was being used for upstate miners and coal miners from the eastern part of the state were at times being allegedly neglected. "This pushes them to come and commit to what they are going to do. It will make them use the money that has been appropriated correctly."
Hinkins also voiced concern about what could be happening with Community Impact Board money that is generated by the energy industry and is supposed to be used to help communities that are impacted by energy development.
Both expressed concern about what is happening to rural representation in the state. Cutting rural representation in the House didn't happen very much with the recent reapportionment of districts. But with the next census, if the Wasatch Front communities continue to expand those changes could really affect rural Utah's voice at the legislature.
Hinkins is from Emery County and represents District 27.
Watkins is from Miller Creek and represents District 69 in the house. She is the only rural Democrat in the legislature.

POTSDAM - All doors were locked for a short time at Canton-Potsdam Hospital early this morning following a threatening phone call from a suicidal man shortly after midnight.
A state police investigator said the call was from a former St. Lawrence County resident now living in Georgia. Investigators said there is no immediate threat at the hospital and that the case has been given to police in Georgia for further investigation.
Spokeswoman Rebecca Faber said all doors at the hospital were locked and people were screened before being allowed entrance for about a half-hour after receiving the call. The hospital remains on limited access control, which means all doors except at the main entrance and the emergency room are locked.

|SOLD! At Least for Now
|Written by Steve Frank
|Wednesday, 17 October 2012 10:38
Sold—at least for now. That the latest from the Watauga County Commission, who received hand-written proposals from Campus Crest and Sanctuary Management for the old Watauga High Campus. County Manager Deron Geouque read the bids to the commissioners--$18 million
from Campus Crest with a 5% commission; $16.8 from Sanctuary Management with 0% commission. Board chairman Nathan Miller did the quick math on the 'net to the county' amounts, and found only $300,000 separated the two bids, but commissioner Jim Deal was quick to move for the higher bid, adopted unanimously. Sanctuary Management got detailed information about the upset bid process before heading back to Atlanta, so within two weeks, we may see the $18 million raised to the next increment of $18.9 million—or beyond, as others have expressed interest, and may be waiting in the wings to see where the money is headed. Spring 2013 is the earliest that any earth might be moved by the eventual high bidder, and the interest switches to what 'mixed use' the final winner brings to the table.

Murderdolls Tour Diary - pt 3
Posted on February 12, 2008SATURDAY DECEMBER 7TH THE FORUM LONDON ENGLAND
PRE SHOW ACTIVITIES- Here we are in London....and no i'm not talking about Nadir D'Priest and company I'm talking about the place LONDON. This makes our 3rd appearance in London since September. Our day consisted of press, press and more press all the way until show time. We also found out that we were filming the show for a live DVD that will be coming out early next year. All in all this day was very fucking busy, so by the time we were finished with all the press it was time to get dressed and play.
THE SHOW-Well first off we showed up...and that's more than I can say for some people who find it hard to make it to make it to their own concerts. The giant stage, massive lights, and the 1450 people in attendance was just unreal and seemed to good to be true for our sorry asses. However it was true and it was fucking great. We blasted out our usual rock 'em sock 'em blistering 55 min. set (encore included) and the audience loved us. This is one of my favourite shows I have ever played and the only thing i could imagine better than this is to go back in time and play the T.H.U.D. show
with Tuff.
THE AFTERSHOW-"hells come to heaven at the back stage door"....not only are these lyrics to Hericane Alice this was a reality tonight. It seemed like everyone we had met and made friends with in Europe came out to this show. We hung out and talked all night long and it just seemed to never end. We finally called it a day around 5:00 am and hit the bunks....so I'll end this entry with the immortal words of Roky Shades from the Wrathchild live in London video....'YOUR A VICTIM... OF WHAT LONDON?...A STAKK ATTAK!!!!
Thanks to Metal-Sludge.

A New Hampshire Hidden Gem
In the dark months of winter, when the moon casts its light on canescent mounds of snow, the latter become fields of icy, glowing gems, riches to behold for the eyes of the careful observer. The angle must be just so to reap the rewards of this natural sacrament. This heightens the transcendence of the moment – the moment we realize that treasures surround us.
One must be observant to glimpse the majesty of nature. So too, the intrepid searcher of hidden restaurant treasures must be equally observant to find the amazing gastronomical gems that can be found in surprising places in New Hampshire. The Crystal Quail is one such gem. More...

Peeping While You're Sleeping
Liberty Forum is fast approaching. Now in its 7th year, with the theme "Watching the Watchers," Liberty Forum is set to be the biggest and best one yet. One thing that differentiates the Free State Project's annual events from other liberty conferences is that we are focused on doing, acting, producing, changing. We don't just talk about the problems; we work to fix them. One way to do this is to make fun of the state. And boy, did FSP participant Dan McCall do just that. The owner of Liberty Maniacs made a t-shirt bearing the NSA logo, modified to read "peeping while you're sleeping," with the slogan "NSA: the only part of the government that actually listens." The NSA was not amused. They contacted the distributor demanding the product be removed from Zazzle's site, saying, "Your product contained content which infringes upon the intellectual property rights of National Security Agency."

knives, lipstick, liberty, and... life
Several months ago my friend and Free State Project compatriot Jenn Coffey let the word out that she'd been diagnosed with breast cancer. She has bravely been blogging about the experience ever since. Although it has been painful and depressing to read, it has been educational for me; I really had no idea what a time-consuming, frustrating pain in the ass it is to get treated for cancer! It seems particularly ironic, in a haha-you're-really-NOT-being-funny-universe kind of way that Jenn, of all people, has been sidelined with a life-threatening medical condition, because she is one of those seemingly larger-than-life individuals who seems to cram three times as much life into the allotted timeframe than the rest of us...

Shire Sharing Feeds the Needy: Private Charity FTW!
Among those focused on the principles of liberty, those passionate about changing the world, there is always debate. One topic that gets less attention is welfare. Most of us, if not all, tend to agree that charity is best given voluntarily, and we usually agree that the funding method the state uses--taxation--is immoral, if not outright violent. Usually the discussion ends there, and we sit back, self-satisfied. Taxation is theft, end of story. Now the world will get better, right? What commonly happens next is we are called cruel, Darwinist, unloving, uncharitable. We are accused of not caring about the needy, of wanting the poor/disabled/drug-addicted to die so we will finally have time to roll around in our giant piles of money, laughing maniacally. More...

Haunted New Hampshire
The Shining was a Disco-era bestseller from Maine's Master of Macabre, Stephen King, but it was the foreboding grandeur of the Overlook Hotel and Jack Nicholson's portrayal of dangerous dull-boy Jack Torrance that made The Shining a part of modern culture. While it was the Stanley Hotel in Colorado that reportedly inspired King, the author could have looked a lot closer to home for his supernatural stimulation. More...
Free State Project Hits 75% of Its 20,000 Goal: On Target for Mass Migration to NH in 2015
The Free State Project, a mass migration movement to concentrate 20,000 liberty activists in New Hampshire is advancing to the finish line with more than 15,000 participants now signed up, with thousands moving ahead of schedule.
October 25, 2013 – Manchester, NH – Today, the Free State Project announced that 15,000 participants have now signed up to move to New Hampshire for more liberty. This mass migration movement aims to concentrate 20,000 liberty activists in the Live Free or Die state. At the current rate of sign-ups, the organization anticipates it will "Trigger the Move" in 2015, three years ahead of schedule.
"Reaching 75% of our goal is a major milestone," said FSP president, Carla Gericke. "I attribute the acceleration in sign ups to things like the NSA surveillance scandal, the TSA, the NDAA, the PATRIOT Act, Obamacare, unconstitutional gun control legislation, and the unwarranted wars under both Bush and Obama. As America devolves into a police state, well-informed people are seeking safe havens. The FSP offers a proven strategy for individuals who are looking for more liberty within a community of like-minded people." More...
New Hampshire's Unemployment Falls Again
The New Hampshire Freedom blog analyzes the latest New Hampshire Unemployment numbers:
"Another month, another drop in the New Hampshire unemployment rate. When 2013 started, the New Hampshire unemployment rate was 5.8%. Last month it was 5.1%. The August unemployment rate is 5%. We are talking 2008 levels. In fact, the last time the unemployment rate was this low in New Hampshire was December of 2008." More....

Happy 10th Anniversary First Porcupine Mover!
Today is the 10th anniversary of the Free State Project's first mover! Since then, more than 1,400 liberty lovers have moved to the Live Free or Die state in search of more Liberty in Our Lifetime. Over the past decade, the FSP has gone from strength to strength, and we stand at the cusp of great things. The sign up rate is accelerating. More movers arrive weekly. As we prepare to Trigger the Move and welcome the next influx of activists, local participants are building liberty friendly institutions and infrastructures. What are you waiting for? The time is nigh. Nigh, I say! Join a growing community of liberty lovers for your best chance at more freedom, and fun!
Make the Move!
Recorded at the Finger Lakes Freedom Festival in upstate New York, soon-to-be mover James Davis explains the gist of the Free State Project. If you have a burning desire for more liberty in your lifetime, SIGN THE PLEDGE! This is a great example of how you can get involved before actually moving to New Hampshire. James took it upon himself to gather materials, reserve a table and organize volunteers to help him for the weekend. Another liberty activist from New York recorded this video and uploaded it to Youtube. Do you have events like this near you? What can you do to help spread the word? Volunteer. Ready to move now? No reason to wait. Thousands have already made the move! Not ready yet? Don't just sit on the sidelines, take initiative like James, be creative, and get in the fight!

Enhanced Format and Curriculum
Our LIOS MA Psychology degree program with a specialization in Counseling prepares students for state licensure as master's level counselors. The counseling program is delivered through a series of face-to-face residential conferences where students are immersed in dynamic, experiential learning that blends systems counseling theory with hands-on practice. As a student in this counseling program, you will build confidence and competencies in "the self of the therapist," the most important counseling tool, as well as skills in the practical implementation of core counseling theories and depth psychology.
Self-Awareness and Therapeutic Relationship Studies
Our Counseling curriculum prepares you for an outstanding career as a licensed mental health professional by focusing on:
- Developing the self of the therapist,
- Creatively engaging in relationships with clients, and
- Blending systems counseling theories with solid skills.
Models of Counseling Theory
Students learn multiple models of counseling theory with an emphasis on developing the specific competencies of the therapist:
- The art of joining and active listening,
- Creating resiliency within a family system, and
- Crafting conversations of possibility and change.
Throughout the two-year program, Counseling students are also introduced to subjects critical to understanding human behavior. Human Development, Sexuality, and Assessment and Diagnosis are just some of the courses that help you become an effective psychological counselor. Our students also learn about the professional life of the therapist by studying ethics, laws, and current issues within the mental health field.
Internships: High Ratings for LIOS MA Students
In addition to the academic program, students will participate in internships during their second year. The 9-18 month supervised clinical internships, established in a variety of community settings, require a total of 700 hours of internship time. Students also participate in ongoing consultation groups with faculty consultants and peers concurrent with the internship.
Our students consistently receive high ratings in their internship settings, especially for their self-awareness and the capacity to artfully engage in the therapeutic relationship with clients.
Our Counseling faculty have years of clinical experience and training and have active clinical practices within the Seattle area. Faculty have authored books, chapters, and journal articles on counseling theory, marriage and family therapy, the training of therapists, family of origin therapy, and systems consultation.
Multiple Licensure Options Available
The Counseling curriculum currently meets education requirements within the state of Washington for licensure as a Mental Health Counselor and meets curriculum requirements for licensure as a Marriage & Family Therapist. Students from adjacent states such as Oregon, California, Idaho, and Montana can qualify for licensure in their specific states with the addition of elective courses available through this program.
For information relating to post-Master's degree licensing requirements contact:
- Washington State Department of Social and Health Services (DSHS) - Mental Health Division
- Licensure information for Marriage and Family Therapists
- Licensure information for Mental Health Counselors
Students planning to practice in other states or provinces should contact the appropriate organizations of those regions. Some states and provinces may require additional course work to meet certification standards. As always, because requirements may change, it is the responsibility of the student to research the specific requirements of the organization from which the student is seeking credentials. We will work with you to help you meet these requirements through independent studies.

After looking at a couple of tents lately I got to thinking about the flat felled seam. You know how you usually put the two wrong sides together and then sew your seam allowance...next you open up your two pieces, roll over the seam allowance and sew one or two lines of stitching down the seam allowance? The first seam you sew is only through two pieces of fabric, while the other seams are through four pieces of fabric, it seems to me the first seam you sew is inherently weak when you sew this way. In the tents I was looking at all of the seams went through four pieces of fabric (I'm sure they use some kind of foot that does it all for them).So my question is, does anyone know a good way to sew a felled seam skipping the first seam that only goes through two layers without a special foot? I was thinking some kind of basting stitch for the first line of stitching, then sew two lines of stitching through the folded seam allowance, then coming back and ripping out the basting stitch (however this might leave some holes that would leak). Thoughts?Let me know if this is really confusing and I'll draw a picture.
By the time you have ripped out your first line of stitching, you probably end up with a weaker seem than if you just left it in. You could perhaps just use a really long stitch length, which would not over-perforate the two layers of fabric, then use a normal stitch length for the 4 layers of fabric. but unless you have had problem with the flat felled seam in the past, this just seems like you are solving a problem that isn't there.Adie
Very clearly said and good questionJust sew a third row of stitching (through 4 layers) and you'll end up with 1 row of stitching through 2 layers and 2 rows through 4 layers.No reason to rip out the first row of stitching. When you're sewing the 2nd row of stitches, make sure you're not sewing it such that the 1st row of stitches will take all the load - flatten out the folded fabric good. Sometimes, I'll screw up a little and the 2nd row of stitches will take most of the load but the 1st row won't take much load but that isn't important, especially if I do a 3rd row.If I do a third row, I just run the fabric through at constant speed, so the quality and strength of the seam is best. And the 2nd and 3rd rows will share the load good.
One option is folding over the longer seam allowance and sewing through that first (rather than just tucking it under after making a stitch through 2 layers), so you're going through 3 layers instead of 2. Jerry, I haven't tried a third stitch, but I don't see how a third stitch in the middle takes any load off of the 2-layer stitch. It seems like the load is still all on the outside 2 stitches regardless of what you put in the middle. Is that flawed thinking?I'm about to start a tent so this is of interest. I actually bought a lap seam roller to see if I could rig it to do the initial 4 layer fold (sewing with a single needle) but no luck. I have an industrial machine that could do it right but I'd need a different needle bar for twin needles and can't find one anywhere.
When you're sewing the 2nd row of stitches, if you pull apart the 2 pieces of fabric a little to put load on the 1st row of stitches, and carefully fold over and flatten the fabric, you can get it so the 1st and 2nd row of stitches will share the load.Often, I screw up a little and the 2nd row of stitches takes more of the load, but no worry.Then, the 3rd row of stitches goes between 1st and 2nd row. The 2nd and 3rd row of stitches will share the load good. It really doesn't matter that much if the 1st row of stitches doesn't share the load, because there are two good rows. The purpose of the 1st row is more just to align the 2 pieces of fabric.
Yeah, I was thinking if you could reduce that first row of stitching the seam might be more waterproof. It seems that water would most likely enter there where there is only one maybe two layers of fabric at the seam (when it is pitched fully taut). It doesn't matter much on a silnylon shelter because you can just seam seal it however I was going to use a lightweight canvas so I can't really go back with seam sealer afterwards. It sounds like maybe you need an industrial machine and a special foot to accomplish this though...
I guess I don't see how the third row does anything unless one of the other two rows fail. If you have load pulling out from each side of the seam, isn't all of the pulling on the outside seams, meaning that between the outer two rows of stitches, there isn't any load at all? I guess the stretch of sil might mean there is some. My thinking: no matter how many layers you sew through, the weak spot is still the top single layer, and that's were you'll get seam hole elongation, which seems to be the biggest thing to try to avoid. It almost seams like a real lap seam is more for speed/convenience and having two perfectly aligned stitches (which IS important) than for strength of the seam. The modified, two-step felled seam seems plenty strong and the only disadvantage I see is that the first seam is more "exposed" (doesn't have the tiny bit of folded fabric behind it), so hole elongation is more visible. I may be totally off and will do some experimenting later.
Maybe the 2nd (and 3rd) seam(s) leak more water because it follows the threads.Maybe removing the 1st row of stitches would make it more or less waterproof.Canvas? How curious. Then it's not waterproof anywhere so it doesn't matter.You could waterproof seam of canvas with either silicone or polyurethane, I would think. Try it on a test sample, let it dry for a couple days, examine it/try to rub off the seam sealer/possibly test waterproofness but that might be difficult.
It takes more than a special foot to do this the way factories do it. They use a double needle machine, which has two needles, two threads, two hooks, two bobbins, and makes two entirely independent rows of stitching at the same time. A folding attachment is typically used to fold the pieces as they're fed into the needles, so the seam is perfectly even. Seam strength shouldn't be an issue, but if you're worried about it, a third pass through the machine will get you that parallel row of stitching. I wouldn't think that 'zipper' failure would an issue, if you're using a reasonable needle and thread for the material.
This issue was covered within the last year or so in this forum, so is deja vu all over again; but that may be just the way it is in this medium - just takes some getting used to.First a dry iron is set just hot enough to make a good folded crease that will last a few minutes without damaging the material. Careful experimentation is required on scraps to get the right setting on the iron.Next, the edges of the fabric panels must be marked with a line where the fold is to be. The width of the thin strip to be folded over depends on how wide you want the felled seam to be. Next, the material is folded on the line, and just the edge of the fold is pressed with the edge of the iron. The working surface underneath must be something that will not melt or ignite. I use a ping-pong table made of a wood composite we used to call homasote. Next, the two panels are joined with the folds overlapping as they would on the finished lap felled seam.Pins are inserted to hold the seam together, and are placed perpendicular to the seam, and between where the two stitch lines will be. With practice, the material can be laid flat on the table, and the pins inserted using the fingernail on one hand as a thimble to press against the fabric and pinpoint in order to get the pin to come out of the fabric at the desired point.Next the two stitch lines are sewn. Each line penetrates four layers of fabric.Stitching the first line, I pull the pins out just before the work enters the presser foot. Usually I can sew the second line without having to re-pin, because the fold in the fabric has been pressed by the iron to stay in place long enough to finish the seam. I sew very slowly, to insure the material is just where it should be when it passes under the needle. This requires a good machine motor and variable resistor in the pedal to operate at slow speeds.The result is a true flat or lap felled seam that has no needle or pin holes outside of the stitch lines. There are the pin holes between the stitch lines that go through four layers of fabric. After seam-sealing, they present no problem.The seams on this silnylon fly for a Hubba were sewn in this fashion:With a "faux" felled seam, as was already pointed out in earlier posts, there is a stitch line where holes in one layer of fabric are exposed:The stress on these holes is likely to defeat the sealer and allow rain to enter.Wish I could sew like a pro on a pro machine with a seam folding device. The chances of that happening are between zero and none; so resort is had to the above method. For purposes of measuring pattern panel sizes, it is a little tricky at first getting used to the idea that the fold lines are offset to each side of the center of the seam, but it gets easier with practice.It seems worth the effort to get a much more durable and water resistant seam.

But I have never used it, so I am not sure how well it might work.HOWEVER,there seems to be a myth that using a flat felled seam means that you don't get the load on a single layer of fabric. WRONG. Completely wrong.Look carefully at Sam's last diagram. All three seams go through a single layer of the left-hand fabric. The first line of stitches is no weaker than the other two. But having 3 lines is obviously stronger than one.So why use a flat felled seam? Two main reasons. The first goes back to the days of uncoated fabrics. Such a seam conceals the raw edge of the fabric and stops it from fraying. This is a good reason, with uncoated fabrics. We are not using uncoated fabrics for tents and rainwear.The second reason is customer perception: the way the top fabric has its edge tucked under looks neater. Commercial machines can do this with the special foot, so they do.But you would get the same performance if you just folded the sewn fabric over once and put the extra 2 lines of stitched through them, leaving the edges showing. Put this seam on the 'inside' of the tent or jacket, so all you see on the outside is just the join, and seam seal the stitching. Same performance.Cheers
True flat felled seams are easy to sew if you have a double needle machine with a custom folder. But if you don't. Then don't bother. Save yourself a headache and do a faux flat felled seam. Sew an extra line of stitching if your worried about strength. Also disregard everything you have ever hear about using Irons and Pins. DONT USE THEM. They slow you down, make your seams look like crap, and are NOT NEEDED. I am going to attach a photo of a faux flat felled seam I just did to show you what is possible. I took two pieces of silnylon about 3 feet long and used a single needle machine. For demonstration purposes I did three lines of stitching, used no pins, no iron and it took me less than two minutes to do from start to finish. Let me know if you have any questions.

Lawson,Out of curiosity, what do you use in place of pins? For everyone else - check out the link below. It has a lot of great felled seam info, pics, and videos. Warning - You do have to wade through a little forum chatter in that link.http://artisanssquare.com/sg/index.php?topic=18801.0Ryan
Good question. But the answer is Nothing. The only thing that I use to hold the seam together while I am sewing is my big burly hands. Seriously my hands were not meant for sewing so if I can do it, anyone can. My point really was that using a single needle machine anyone can make a perfect looking seam with even three rows of stitching that are straight. Basically stop dreaming about a $1,500 double needle machine with a $300 folder and true flat felled seams. You can you can get the factory look and strength an your house using a $150 single need machine.. Let me see if I can come up with a better way to explain how I made the above faux flat felled seam.
I tried out several different variations (true felled seam as Samuel describes, faux, faux with a third stitch in the middle, and faux without the extra fabric folded under like Roger describes) yesterday on some sil and yanked on them some and there was no difference between any of them as far as hole elongation. Also, in the faux variations that have stitches through a different # of layers on the two stitches (such as 4 layers on one side and 2 on the other), the holes grow at the same rate for the exact reason Roger describes above. Bottom line: don't think it's worth making it more complicated than it needs to be.
As Roger and Brendan said. There is no difference in strength between the two if the seam is sewed properly. I think instead of calling it a Faux Flat Felled we should come up with another name as Faux implies that its a lesser quality version. This is not true as its a different type of stitch all together and is sewn in a completely different manner and in my testing I have found it to be just as strong as a true flat felled seam. Some people disagree because they can see the needle holes opening up. The flat felled seam does the same thing but its just harder to see because the holes are on top of the seam and not against the edge. After you have everything seam sealed it is one hell of a strong seam. That said, lets call it the double or triple top stitch depending on how many rows of stitching is done. One other thing I forgot to say is to make sure you use the right size thread to needle combination. For silnylon I generally use a bonded nylon T70 thread and a size 100 needle. I know some people (Roger) are going to say these are too big. I have tried using T30 with a 60/70 weight needle and T45 with an 70/80/90 weight needle and while they work OK I think the T70 with the 100 weight needle works the best. It will give a seam that is super strong. Another thing most people mess up on is there machine tension. Too much tension and it will pucker the material. Too loose and its not going to work. Before I sew anything I take some scrap pieces of what I am about to sew and use just one layer and get everything set perfect. Thick materials are not as finicky, but thin stuff like silnylon and the .90oz and lower bag materials are. You have to set everything right or your going to have some problems.
I think the only need for pins is for long seams like a tent. The top piece of fabric sticks on the pressure foot a little so by the time you're at the end of the seam, the two pieces don't line up any more. I just do hand stitches but you could use pins. I just do it every 2 feet or so, and in between just use my fingers to keep the two pieces aligned.If you were doing this for a living, then it would make sense to have the two needle machine and the folder. Running it through machine just once instead of twice would save time.Since it's just as good as a flat felled seam, maybe we should call it a flat felled seam : )
With long seams having having exact tension matters, and I've found that often the bobbin tension is a bit too tight, leading to the two pieces not lining up like Jerry mentioned. Pinning a bit can help compensate (coming from someone who avoids pins like the plague). Damn Lawson, V69 on sil? I've never even thought to use bonded nylon on sil. I have some 46 and 69...might have to give it a try.

Roger-What you are talking about is stitching and then top stitching?Many manufacturers that seam tape use this, since the raw edges of the fabric will be under the tape anyway.There is a small strength gain in a flat felled seam. You can test it and see for yourself. I believe it is just the extra frictionyou gain from the several fabric layers rubbing against each other. But not enough to make any real difference.Jerry-Rather than pinning a long seam, one can mark with a sharpee every foot or two on both pieces to make sure fabrictop and bottom is going through the feed evenly.
"Rather than pinning a long seam, one can mark with a sharpee every foot or two on both pieces to make sure fabric top and bottom is going through the feed evenly"Good idea, that would actually be easier, thanksI remember my mom sewing clothes. The patterns periodically have a little triangle cut. I assume you line up the two pieces of fabric so the triangle cut on each aligns. I suppose you could do that. Probably sharpie mark is easier.

A local event planned Oct. 29 and Oct. 31 will focus on restocking the depleted shelves at the Carbon County Food Bank.
From 4 to 7 p.m. on Wednesday and Friday, large spooks will visit local residences tricking or treating for canned and non-perishable packaged food items.
All donated canned and packaged food gathered during the Halloween activity will be delivered to the local pantry in Price.
Carbon County residents who are not visited during the activity may call the organizers at 613-5264. College of Eastern Utah students will respond to the telephone calls, pick up donations and transport the items to the food bank.
CEU student Mason Winters finished in first place overall at the American Welding Societies's skills USA Preweld-off challenge.
"Our next step is finishing in the top three in Las Vegas on Oct. 6-8 for the U.S. Open Weld Trials," said instructor Mike Tryon, before the meet.
Winters then won the competition in Las Vegas and recieved a gold medal for his accomplishments. Now he will go to an international competition in Ireland.
The top three three top finalists from the Las Vegas competition, which includes Winters, will represent the U.S. at the World Skills competition in Calgary-Alberta, Canada in 2009.
The Division of Wildlife Resources (DWR) will be conducting administrative checkpoints throughout southeastern Utah during the month of October.
Motorists can anticipate encountering checkpoints and conservation officers, who may inspect vehicles and question occupants with regard to hunting and wildlife regulations.
While conducting wildlife compliance checks, officers will deal with any other criminal violations that may be encountered.
"Enforcement of criminal law and wildlife regulations protect us all and safeguards our wildlife resources," said a DWR press release.

Submission Radiolab on The Turing Problem->
dooling writes: "WNYC's Radiolab has a "short" on the life and times of Alan Turing, specifically how his personal life may have informed his thoughts on machines. A relevant discussion given the recent refusal of the UK government to give Turing a posthumous pardon for "acts of gross indecency between men, in public or private." As usual, Radiolab treats the subject in an entertaining and informative manner."

"I've met another man. He's the best man I've ever met. He's bright, handsome and he's crazy about me. And, he's married. There's only one thing; he doesn't like my hat."
The Unbearable Lightness of Being is, as I think I've mentioned before, one of my favorite movies (in a terribly stubborn move, I've honestly never liked the book quite as much, for once!). Though I've never felt particular kinship for Sabina there is no possible way not to be in love with her hat and her penchant for wearing it. I think it's quite possible that 90% of what I wear is in some way a nod to a favorite character sometime. Eventually I will compose a post on this fact, I think.
Also making their debut: jeans! Not just pants, but honest-to-goodness jeans! I wear pants and jeans about once a week, usually when it rains (although that changes when the weather is cool enough to wear tights again), or occasionally to work. I still don't feel exactly right in jeans and pants. The last time I bought any was at least a year ago and before that it was about two years. I've gained a bit of weight since then and have tossed said pairs in the wash several times, so now most of them are just a tad too snug to be totally comfortable.
I think part of my problem with jeans and pants is I never feel dressed enough in them. Most of my tops are t-shirts, and those I try to wear with skirts, so jeans usually end up with blouses in an effort to feel more put-together and feminine. It's also certainly a confidence thing. I feel I can hide more in dresses and skirts--a misleading statement since it is not that I want to blend into the background, but rather disguise those parts of my body I'm not thrilled with.
I digress, and return to hats. This is to be the year of hats, I think, although perhaps it is too soon before fall to tell. Hats are good for me. They require confidence, work, and they feel somewhat literary. I feel like images of writers and authors in my head wear hats when they are doing normal-life things, and a hat is such a useful thing for a character. Oh, the kinds of hats they might wear! And that they could do with it, how they could touch it or wear it, if a hat was lost or stolen, a loved one's hat, not to mention the wonderful work of hat-making. I don't know just yet if it is, but bee-keeping and another fantasy activity, millinery, are combined today.

Abbey Road's Audio Products department has developed a range of products for both pro and home studio users. Back in the 50s, 60s and 70s, Abbey Road Studios worked with EMI to custom build mixing consoles and outboard gear to meet the demands and ambitions of the studio engineers and the artists they worked with. Most of this equipment was only available to EMI Studios and was never sold commercially. This equipment, combined with the expertise of our engineers and the unique acoustic properties of the studios, created what has come to be known as the 'Abbey Road Sound', which can be heard on some of the most popular recordings of all time.
In 2004, Abbey Road Studios launched a range of audio products with the aim of providing users with the tools to create and produce music - tools based on Abbey Road's legendary equipment, engineers and acoustics.
We have released a limited number of products that faithfully recreate some of EMI's most celebrated equipment, ranging from software plug-ins and hardware emulations of vintage EMI outboard gear, to sampled instruments recorded using our collection of vintage microphones, mixings consoles and tape machines.
We continue to work with industry leading partners such as Waves, Native Instruments and Chandler.
Please note, as of October 2013 there have been some changes to our existing plugins software. Please click here for more details.
