Hello All!
I saw the messages for the sewing circle. I will be honest I have only tinkered with sewing for the last few years. The ladies of my family are just wonderful with the sewing machine and gorgeous fabrics....so I want to get to that point too!
I'm actually a practicing commercial and fashion photographer. I only started sewing because I would watch the designers sew up these beautiful gowns and I wanted in!
If anyone is interested in starting a circle please do let me know! I know there is a library that allows usage of the private rooms.

Lynrich Arts
What began as an art-supply store in 1978 has since grown into a full art centre helmed by husband-and-wife team Lynnie and Richard Rosenthal. The inventive duo harnesses their extensive experiences in the art world to teach students at Lynrich Arts Fine Arts Centre how to create their own masterpieces. Adults delve into watercolour, acrylic-painting, and drawing projects; children try their hands at mixed media and cartooning, sketching out imagined superhero feats or adventures in accounting. In addition to creating business cards, brochures, and banners, the accommodating staff also hosts parties, ringing in birthdays, bridal showers, or other notable occasions with plenty of paintbrushes, canvases, ceramics, and inspirational work lining the walls.

The consequences of failing to act, the College says, will be higher costs, greater inefficiency, lower quality, more uninsured persons, and growing patient and physician dissatisfaction. Averting the collapse of primary care is the best cure for an ailing health care system, ACP says.
"The research, literature and policy all clearly demonstrate that primary care physicians deliver high-quality care, reduce mortality, provide continuity of care, and reduce health care costs," Dr. Harris concluded. "President-elect Obama and the new Congress should embrace these recommendations as they look for primary solutions to the triple challenge of improving access, improving quality and controlling costs."
In addition to this white paper, ACP is developing a new policy paper to provide a comprehensive set of recommendations to assure that the supply of primary care physicians is sufficient to meet current and future needs. Many of ACP's ideas are reflected in the Patient Access to Primary Care Act, H.R. 7192, introduced by Rep. Allison Schwartz of Pennsylvania. This bill will be reintroduced by Rep. Schwartz in the 111th Congress, and Senator Maria Cantwell of Washington is expected at that time to introduce a companion bill in the Senate. Later in 2009, ACP will release a position paper that will make recommendations on how primary care itself needs to change to meet the needs of an aging population with more chronic diseases.

Pregnant women have been advised to maintain a varied diet during their pregnancy.
Judy Ledger, chief executive of Baby Lifeline, said that women should "eat sensibly" while carrying a child and make sure that there is "lots of fibre, vegetables [and] vitamins" in their diet.
The comments follow research from the Royal College of Midwives and Netmums, which found that 70 per cent of women 'ate for two' during pregnancy.
"To 'eat for two' is rubbish, it's nonsense," Ms Ledger commented.
"The baby will take the nourishment from the mother in any case. All it does is lead to all sorts of problems.
"It's a strain on the heart, on the mother, and the cardio-vascular system as a whole."
She advised women that sticking to a sensible weight during pregnancy needn't be difficult.
A "completely varied diet" and some "gentle exercise like walking and keeping active also helps".

- Same-sex marriage in Colorado: 11 answers to commonly asked questions
- Bishops reject progressive language on gays, divorcees
- Oct 8:
- Love and politics in the air at Denver marriage equality rally
- Gay couples who want a religious marriage ceremony may not find welcome
State Attorney General John Suthers has joined a group of 17 attorneys general asking the U.S. Supreme Court to hear arguments on two cases challenging bans on same-sex marriage in Utah and Oklahoma.
Suthers, who is defending Colorado's voter-approved same-sex marriage ban in two ongoing cases, is leading the attorneys general in the request. The group includes attorneys general from Mississippi and Missouri, who are Democrats.
The 10th Circuit Court of Appeals — which includes Colorado — has found same-sex marriage bans in Utah and Oklahoma unconstitutional.
The two filings, both authored by Suthers' office, do not argue the merits of the cases but instead ask the high court for guidance and finality on the issue. Currently, there are 89 ongoing cases challenging marriage laws in 31 states, according to the requests.
"There are scores of cases requiring thousands of hours to litigate the same legal question presented in this petition," Suthers wrote in the filing for the Utah case. "These cases are divisive and costly, not only in terms of money and manpower, but in terms of respect for the democratic process and deliberation undertaken by millions of voters where the nature of marriage has recently been debated."
Plaintiffs and defendants in both cases already have asked the Supreme Court to take the cases.

Defending champion Russia will face Canada on Sunday in a rematch of last year's final at the IIHF World Hockey Championship.
The Russians advanced to the final in Bern, Switzerland, on Friday when Konstantin Gorovikov scored a power-play goal with 1:47 left in regulation for a 3-2 victory over the United States in the first semifinal. Canada won the second semifinal by beating Sweden 3-1 behind a pair of goals by Derek Roy of the Buffalo Sabres.
Canada will try to avenge a 5-4 overtime loss to the Russians in last year's championship game at Quebec City.
The Americans and Swedes will play for the bronze medal.
"We came here to get a medal -- the tournament isn't over for us," said U.S. coach Ron Wilson, who just finished his first season behind the Toronto Maple Leafs bench.
With U.S. forward T.J. Oshie in the penalty box for hooking, the Russians got a break when a shot from the right circle deflected off Gorovikov's back and into the net.
After a scoreless first period, the U.S. took the lead in the second on a goal by captain Dustin Brown. But goals by Ilya Kovalchuk and Alexander Frolov gave the Russians a 2-1 lead before Kyle Okposo tied the score late in the period.
"We were very unlucky on two of their goals. Shots which were going wide hit somebody," Wilson said. "I'm very proud of our team for the effort we gave."
Ilya Bryzgalov had 18 saves for Russia while Robert Esche made 21 stops for the Americans.
The U.S. scored at 3:46 of the second when Brown was rewarded for his hard work on defense. The Los Angeles Kings captain intercepted Vitali Atyushov's lazy pass through his own zone, deked Bryzgalov and buried a shot in the right side.
Russia tied it at 11:20 when Kovalchuk managed to control the puck off a quick faceoff to fire a shot from the edge of the right circle. The Atlanta Thrashers' captain then set up the go-ahead goal when he skated out of his end along the left boards, crossed the ice and fired a shot from the right circle that hit Frolov and bounced past Esche at 14:25.
"Ilya was fired up. Hats off to Russia, they got it done," said defenseman Ron Hainsey, an Atlanta teammate of Kovalchuk. "It was a thrill to play in a real good game."
After failing to convert on its first power-play of the game, the Americans quickly got an even-strength goal. The 21-year-old Okposo connected on a one-timer off Hainsey's pass from the left circle.
Sweden, playing in its ninth consecutive world semifinals, lost to Canada for the third year in a row in front of a sellout crowd of 11,477, the biggest attendance of the championship.
"They dominated, especially in the second period," Swedish defenseman Magnus Johansson said. "We tried to come back but we never really got close."
The Canadians grabbed the lead at 6:51 of the opening period when Swedish goalie Jonas Gustavsson was caught looking the wrong way for a puck coming from behind the net. Martin St. Louis reversed a pass to Roy, who came out on Gustavsson's blind left side to flip his shot high into the net.
Canada then broke the game open with a pair of goals less than a minute apart in the second period.
Horcoff knocked Mike Fisher's pass between Gustavsson's pads at 9:53, and Roy got his second by banging the rebound of Dany Heatley's shot into the open right side for a power-play goal.
Sweden cut the lead to 3-1 at 6:14 of the final period when Loui Eriksson got his own rebound, stepped to the left and fired a shot past Dwayne Roloson.
Roloson made 22 saves for the win, and Gustavsson stopped 29 for Sweden.

Legislation Would Help Beneficiaries Needing Rehabilitation Services the Most
ALEXANDRIA, Va., June 5 /PRNewswire-USNewswire/ -- With about one month to go before the current exceptions process for clinically based care above the Medicare therapy caps expires, a majority of the U.S. House of Representatives has endorsed legislation to repeal the arbitrary financial limit on therapy benefits.
The Medicare Access to Rehabilitation Services Act of 2007 (HR 748) has reached 225 cosponsors. The bipartisan legislation was introduced by Assistant to the Speaker Xavier Becerra (D-CA), Minority Whip Roy Blunt (R-MO), and representatives Phil English (R-PA), Chip Pickering (R-MS), and Mike Ross (D-AR) in early 2007. Similar legislation led by Senators John Ensign (R-NV) and Blanche Lincoln (D-AR) with bipartisan support has also been introduced in the Senate (S 450) and currently has 42 sponsors. "We are encouraged that the majority of the House is in agreement about the severe restrictions that the therapy caps place on Medicare beneficiaries," said APTA President R Scott Ward, PT, Ph.D.
The Balanced Budget Act of 1997 imposed a $1,500 cap on outpatient therapy services that became effective in January 1999. In subsequent years Congress placed three separate moratoriums on the cap. In 2005, however, Congress voted for the therapy cap to go into effect; yet it also passed legislation authorizing the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Service (CMS) to implement an "exceptions process," which permits medically necessary physical therapy, occupational therapy, and speech pathology services to exceed the cap if the patient meets certain diagnostic and clinical criteria.
Authorized by the Deficit Reduction Act of 2005, the exceptions process
was extended in December 2006 by the Tax Relief and Health Care Improvement
Act and again in 2007 through the Medicare, Medicaid, and SCHIP Extension
Act. The exceptions process is scheduled to expire June 30,

Methodist Madness
Divesting from Israel.
11:00 PM, Feb 21, 2008 • By MARK TOOLEY
ONE OF THE OLDEST Religious Left groups in America is targeting Israel for divestment. The Methodist Federation for Social Action (MFSA) was founded in 1907 after its leaders met with President Teddy Roosevelt. It was one of the Social Gospel's chief proponents in the early 20th century, when much of Mainline Protestantism was exchanging theological orthodoxy for progressive political action. Functioning as an influential caucus within America's once largest Protestant denomination, MFSA for decades has commanded the allegiance of bishops, church bureaucrats, and seminary professors.
Famously derided in the 1950's by Reader's Digest as Methodism's "pink fringe," the increasingly far-left church caucus was briefly marginalized after its infatuations with Stalinist Russia. But MFSA roared back with the counter-culture of the 1960's, vigorously promoting the welfare state, disarmament, and racial, and gender justice. In the 1970s and 1980s it enthusiastically embraced Liberation Theology, touting the Sandinistas and countless other revolutionaries. Of late, MFSA has focused on homosexual causes and "marriage equality."
But now MFSA is demanding that the 7.9 million member United Methodist Church divest from firms consorting with Israel. The church's official lobby arm, the Capitol Hill-based General Board of Church and Society, is more cautiously recommending divestment only against Caterpillar, Inc. for its bulldozer sales to Israel. In late April, the denomination's governing General Conference will decide whether to accede to the anti-Israel initiatives.
MFSA wants a "phased, selective divestment from companies supporting the Israeli occupation of Palestinian territories and other violations of human rights in Israel/Palestine," according to MFSA's chief Kathryn Johnson. "Those who support selective divestment will be accused of being anti-Semitic," she admitted. "Pleas will be made to consider inter-faith relations." But Johnson countered that divestment to pressure the U.S. and Israeli governments is not anti-Semitic. Instead, it can be a "powerful nonviolent tool to change unjust policies that lead to massive suffering and human rights violations in Palestine." She confessed that ties to Jewish groups will be "strained" by divestment, requiring more "compassionate" dialogue. And she urged that "interfaith relationships" also should include Muslims.
The rationale for MFSA's divestment legislation declares: "The destruction of Palestinian homes and confiscation for Palestinian land is made possible by the use of armored bulldozers, helicopter gunships, tanks and other equipment that may have been purchased from the U.S. corporations in which the United Methodist Church may hold investments." If the MFSA proposal were approved, the United Methodist Church would give the targeted companies 60 days to "change" their ties to the "Israeli occupation." Absent this "change," all church entities would divest from that company.
Anti-Israel divestment would primarily involve the United Methodist Church's $17 billion pension portfolio. But it also would affect another nearly $1 billion in assets by the church's 13 national church agencies. And it presumably would affect the even more considerable assets of United Methodism's over 100 affiliated universities and colleges and about 60 hospitals and clinics. Especially wealthy United Methodist universities include Duke, Emory, Southern Methodist, Boston, and Drew. United Methodism has never before targeted governments for corporate divestment, not even South Africa under Apartheid.
But MFSA, along with many United Methodist elites, apparently believes that Israel is uniquely guilty among the world's numerous oppressor regimes. MFSA's January-February 2008 newsletter offers a rather sinister history of Israel. Muslims, Christians, and Jews had lived in "harmony" in Palestine for centuries until disrupted by "extremist" Zionists, whose zeal for a Jewish state provoked violence. "High-placed American Zionists" pressured the United Nations to "give away" most of Palestine to Jews, who avariciously went on to "conquer" three quarters of Palestine. The Jewish conquest advanced in 1967, when Israel launched a "Pearl Harbor-like surprise attack" on Egypt. Israel's continued "confiscation" of Palestinian land perpetuates injustice until this day, inevitably igniting Palestinian uprisings.

As a Green Consultant, I am always searching for ways to improve the environment. At last there is an answer to the problem which currently plagues anyone who owns a boat with a bilge; water which inevitably gets mixed with engine oils and other lubricants. No current bilge cleaner on the market assists you with the easy and safe discharge of this water except Oil Gone Easy Marine. The product will not harm rubber, wood or fiberglass and is totally biodegradable.
The product adheres to hydrocarbons in the water and acts as a super-nutrient which attracts microbes already present, who then break them down. No more worries about damaging your local marine environment and no more costly and messy disposal problems! Pour one bottle of Oil Gone Easy Marine into your bilge and forget about oil contamination for the season. Our product will literally eat any leaking oil for up to two months!

Hmm…it looks like things are taking a while to load. Try again?

Hair Bleaching Problems
Ive said it before and will say it again: There are some hair processes that should only be done by a professional. Among these processes I count bleaching the hair, and judging from the barrage of questions I get from people who have decided to do it themselves and created a world of problems for themselves, a lot of people arent listening.
The reason hair bleaching should be left to professionals is that by the very nature of the process, the hair is treated with a chemical whose purpose is to disperse the pigment molecules in the hair shaft. In doing this, the chemical reaction also damages the protein bonds within the hair and reduces its structural integrity. Add to this that everyones hair responds differently, and factors such as
, body temperature, exterior temperature and lack of attention can all add-up to disastrous results.
The bleaching process involves combining a peroxide developer with a separate bleaching agent that intensifies the lightening effect. The stronger the peroxide (denoted by the value of its volume 10, 20, 30, etc.) the more potent the bleaching mixture will be and the faster it will work. Hairdressers have to go through specific training under guidance to learn how to judge and apply these mixtures, and they practice their initial tries at the process using
that cannot be physically harmed, although, in my school, there were more than a couple of manikins who ended completely bald due to some bleaching mistakes by novice hairdressers.
Yet, some women (and men) insist on doing this process themselves, and then wonder what went wrong when something unfortunate happened. So, for the sake of information, lets look at some of the complaints Ive had from people who took matter into their own hands and paid the price for it:
I bleached my hair at home and now its breaking off, what did I do wrong?
There are a number of things that could have gone wrong but the likeliest candidate is that you over-processed your hair. Now, you may have gotten the exact color result you were aiming for, but you probably didnt know enough to realize that your hair wasnt in a condition to achieve that color goal. Or, you may not have realized that the peroxide/bleach mix you used was too strong for your
hair texture
The bottom line is that youve destroyed enough of the hairs structural integrity to leave the hair brittle and dry, and rough.
Professional solutions:
In this case, you need to get to your stylist immediately and have him or her start a reparative regimen as soon as possible. This will likely involve protein/conditioning treatments, and possibly
hot oil treatments
to keep the hair malleable and soft in order to keep the breakage to a minimum. You will be advised to avoid heated drying and thermal styling tools for the duration so that your hair can regain some measure of its structural integrity. However, dont be fooled, your hair will never be the same until it regrows and is replaced by new growth. The best you can do is mend it the way you might repair broken pottery.
After bleaching my hair, it feels slimy and spongy whenever it gets wet. Whats wrong with it?
This is another symptom of major
hair damage
. The hair feeling slimy and spongy when wet, means that its structural integrity is destroyed. At this stage, the hair probably already is breaking; already feels like straw when its dry; and will not hold color.
Professional solutions:
As with the question above, you need your professional stylist to try and start reparative treatments, like protein packs and deep conditioners. And as with before, the best you can hope for is to try to hold the hair intact until it grows out.
I bleached my hair and now my scalp is sore and red. What caused this?
What you have is one to two likely reactions: chemical burns to the scalp, or an allergic reaction/sensitivity to the chemical process of the bleaching. Depending on how sensitive your skin is, the two are essentially the same. If you used a
powdered bleaching agent
you likely failed to understand that these are classed as off the scalp bleaches and are not intended to come in contact with the skin especially not the delicate skin of the scalp.
You probably have some scabbing and flaking depending on how long it has been since your bleaching process, and the scalp is probably very sensitive to the touch.
Professional solutions:
Depending on how severe the condition is, your stylist may send you straight to your doctor. And, frankly, it may not be a bad idea to visit your doctor anyway. You will probably be advised to avoid harsh shampoos and any styling products until the scalp heals, and if you visit the doctor you may get a medication for use on the scabbed areas to allow the wounds to heal faster and prevent infection.
You will need to be extremely careful when trying to comb or brush the hair, since you want to avoid scratching or cutting the scalp and thus risking infection. You may even be advised to use an antibacterial shampoo to keep the risk of infection caused by build-up of scalp oils at a minimum.

LOS ANGELES (AP) — Ticketfly Inc., a San Francisco-based technology company among several posing a challenge to Ticketmaster, is acquiring WillCall Inc., a crosstown rival that turns your smartphone into a mobile wallet at live events.
The move is meant to expand WillCall's data-collection and payment service to more ticket buyers. Ticketfly has grossed some $400 million in ticket sales and sold 16 million tickets so far this year.
For comparison, Ticketmaster parent Live Nation Entertainment Inc. made $2.56 billion in concert and other ticketing revenue in the first half of the year.
WillCall CEO Donnie Dinch and Ticketfly CEO Andrew Dreskin say the deal is meant to make buying things at concerts easier while providing promoters with data to help them market to high-spending fans. Terms were not disclosed.

Within about 10 minutes it kicked to low.
I figured the thermal protection kicked in but it was barely warm.
Reset the protection to 90*C (highest level) and same thing happened; again, barely warm.
Turned the protection off, opened the rear housing to better dissipate any heat, and tried again.
This time, after about 20 minutes it shut down completely. The housing was very hot.
Even after cooling it will not power back on.

Paschal's voice may or may not tell us not to miss this week's C.S.I..
We already know that Kathy voted for Sean. As the credits roll, he tells us that it's been a blast, and that he wants forgiveness for any mistakes he's made. He says, "I'm just a humble young man tryin' to find my way through this world," tells the camera to keep its head up, and closes, "God bless America." And who would have known twelve episodes ago that I would have ended up wanting Sean to go all the way? Sigh.

India Gold ETF Demand Slows
MUMBAI--Indian investment demand in paper gold during the last financial year slowed to its lowest level since its launch in 2007, as falling prices and a decline in the precious metal's safe-haven appeal damped investor appetite.
The assets under gold exchange-traded funds grew only 18% from a year earlier to 116.48 billion rupees ($2.14 billion) in the last financial year that ended March 31, despite a rise in the total number of schemes, data from the Association of Mutual Funds in India showed Thursday.
Assets under gold ETFs had doubled every year since 2007 until 2012.
"People are now very skeptical to put their money in gold as prices are likely to come down by another 8%-10% in coming months due to signs of improvement in [the] U.S. economy," said Hareesh V., a senior analyst with brokerage Geojit Comtrade Ltd.
Local prices may fall to as low as 26,000 rupees per 10 grams by end of this year, he added.
Spot gold in Mumbai, the country's largest bullion hub, is currently trading at 29,500 rupees per 10 grams.
The expectation of a decline in local prices is in line with global price forecasts. Goldman Sachs GS -1.04 % Wednesday cut its gold-price forecast for 2013 and now it expects year-end gold prices at $1,450 per troy ounce, 9% lower than its previous forecast.
The poor demand for paper gold indicates that Indian investors realize the bull run for the yellow metal is now over and higher returns may not continue in coming months. Gold prices had rallied till last year since 2008 as investors sought assets with safe-haven appeal amid the euro-zone debt crisis and as the U.S. economy and China showed signs of slowing. As the global economy starts to recover, risk appetite has increased and gold has in turn lost its luster.
However, the weakness in gold demand will bring cheer to the federal government, which is struggling to bring down the consumption of gold to check the burgeoning current account deficit.
Gold is the country's second-largest imported commodity by value, behind crude oil. India is also world's largest consumer of the yellow metal.
However, fund managers haven't lost all their hopes despite the decline in growth rate.
The inherent demand for gold will remain strong due to cultural beliefs and traditions and the shift from physical gold to ETFs will continue, albeit at a slower pace, said Chirag Mehta, fund manager at Quantum Asset Management Co. Pvt. Ltd.
Goldman Sachs Asset Management (India) Pvt. Ltd., Kotak Mahindra Mutual Fund, 532985 0.74 % UTI Asset Management Co., Reliance Capital Asset Management Ltd., and SBI Mutual Fund are some of the other fund houses that offer gold ETFs in India.

With the NHL on a two-week break due to the Olympics, Edmonton Oilers general manager Craig MacTavish was in Oklahoma City for a two-game weekend series with Lake Erie, which gained a split Saturday night with a 5-4 shootout win over the Barons.
Oklahoma City Barons notebook: Edmonton Oilers GM Craig MacTavish weighs in on Barons' roster
All but assured of missing the playoffs for the eighth consecutive season, the Edmonton Oilers reportedly will trade a few veterans before the NHL March 5 trade deadline which could impact Oklahoma City's roster.
"There are a lot of guys here deserving of an opportunity to play in the NHL," MacTavish said. "We want to make sure to get a look at some of these guys that could be a big part of our future. They're sending a message to the organization they're ready for that opportunity."
Possible call-ups include: forwards Mark Arcobello, Anton Lander and Roman Horak, plus defensemen Oscar Klefbom and Taylor Fedun.
Veteran defenseman Brad Hunt scored a career-high four points, factoring in every Barons' goal. Hunt scored his sixth goal of the season to tie the game 2-2 in the second period and recorded his 21st, 22nd and 23rd assists.
"It's kind of cool anytime you get a career high but it would have been nice to have gotten a win," Hunt said. "When things start going your way you gain more and more confidence. You almost feel invincible and start doing some things you normally may not do."

Eastern Dragon is a 5 reel (non-progressive), 20-payline, Cryptologic Video Slot. It comes with a wildSymbol, scatter symbol, multiplier, free spin and has a maximum jackpot win of $30,000.
The Eastern Dragon slots game, as its name suggests, is based on a Chinese theme. Accordingly, it features Chinese symbols such as the koi fish, dragons and firecrackers. What's more, Eastern Dragon is a feature-rich game, which promises loads of fun to slot machine users, both experienced and new.
Eastern Dragon is one of the CryptoLogic slot games, comprising 5 reels and 20 pay-lines. Owing to the large number of pay-lines, players can choose from a wide range of denominations, which is why gamblers love this slot machine game. Moreover, delightful features such as wild symbols, scatters, triples, doubles, bonus features, and so on enhance the fun and excitement of this game.
The prizes are generous. For example, players who hit 5 fish symbols win 3,000 coins, which is a large payout, considering the fact that players can lay bets as low as $0.01 - $5.00. The maximum bet permitted in this game is $100, given that the player bets on all 20 pay-lines.
Another unique feature of this slot machine game is that it can be run on two separate casino software. The CryptoLogic Eastern Dragon Slot game has some slight variations in its bonus payout feature.
Eastern Dragon is available at a number of prominent online casinos. Slot machine enthusiasts can enjoy a game at any of these casinos. Eastern Dragon promises plenty of payouts and loads of fun.
I'm really quite surprised at the number of Cryptologic games featured here at LCB considering the fact that they are very rare online these days - I actually wish that were not the case, as way back in the past when they were one of the largest providers of online slot games, I had a tonne of great luck playing Cryptologic slots. Sadly, Eastern Dragon is not one that I would recommend to my fellow gamblers - Sure the paytable is okay, and there is a 3x multiplier on the free spins, but there are many other Crypto games that have these same features with better paytables and more interesting themes.

Are you looking for a new website?
Get a fast, usable and well designed website. I develop and design websites in Windhoek, Namibia.
When you get a website designed for you, it can be a confusing process. I'd love to make it as easy as possible. If you're considering a new website for any purpose, below are some things you should consider.
Consider who is your target audience? The more you know about the people who'll use your website, the more effectively you can build it.
Once you've established the who, next consider how. How will your visitors use your website? What are they coming to your website for. Give it some serious consideration.
By thinking about how visitors will use your site, you'll know what needs to go into the design.
You'll better understand what the purpose of your website is.
Websites get built for all sorts of purposes. Below are a few examples, just to help you consider what your website should be for:
- Your website may function as an advertisement. This is a common purpose of a website for small businesses. If your website is ad, your website's performance in search engines will be the important thing for you. That is, how well are people able to find your website when they're searching for the products you offer. You may also think about how do your products look on the site. Does it help you sell?
- If you run some research service, perhaps your website's purpose may be to data collection. If you need your visitors to be able to submit data to you, your concerns will revolve around ease of use, and how well that data gets managed. Perhaps you want the data to get posted onto the website or emailed to you.
- If you run a larger business, one of the purposes of your website might just be to serve as a catalog of products. If this is the case, you'll think about how fast your pages talk to load. And you'll want to know that your visitors can find what they're looking for on your website.
Those are just some examples to get you thinking. Now we've thought through who will use the website, and what they need to be able to do there. Once you're clear on who will use your website, you can do the fun part and consider the look and structure of the site.
The best way to start getting an idea of a design is to visit a bunch of random sites yourself.
If you're in Namibia and have given the points above some thought, you can contact me. I'd love to build your website for you.
I'll design the site offline for you to start with. When you're happy with the way it looks and works we'll load it to your server for the world to see.
This website
sandcurves.com is my Namibia website design website. I cover all aspects of web design and so if you're either thinking of getting a website, or currently have one, you'll find something useful here to take your site to the next level.
I write a blog where I cover a range of topics of interest to anyone associated with websites. I'll talk about online marketing, planning your website, ideas for websites components, and so on.
Contact me today to chat about getting started on your next website.

Comment Out of touch educators or just obtuse? (Score 1) 956
This is really unfortunate to see this happen and it's really no wonder why this kid got chastised for this. I'm sure it boiled down to this: Kid proud of his achievement (regardless if his own classmates were going to grapple the concept of what he did or not), . Heck, name one kid you didn't know that wanted to show something they bought/got/made/received to show their friends or a teacher they lookup to; my kids do it ALL THE TIME. Now with the larger population, not everyone is bringing in home-brew EE projects, but the majority of us can wrap out minds around what we're presented with. Get something slightly technical or outside our metal capacity or comfort zone and everyone starts shitting themselves and crying chicken little.
What you never hear in these situations is a success story where teacher/educator saw mind-blowing potential in this that their school system was never (repeat, NEVER) going to aide this student in, reached out to some maker group in the city and got the kid and his parents introduced and/or involved. Nope, we just see school board dick swinging to the 3rd degree and toss the quick-to-use endangerment card.
I wish I was dabbling with EE at 14 vs early 20's and I'm sure glad my boss hasn't labeled me a metal-box-bomb-toting-going-postal-terrorist and fired me for the nixie tube clock I am staring at right now while typing this.

CINCINNATI — It takes more than a little Liberty-spike-melting rain — OK, an hour-plus torrential downpour with mega-flashes of lightning — to wash out the Vans Warped Tour '09. With a crowd undeterred by the weather, the 15th annual punk extravaganza rolled up on a steamy Wednesday afternoon to the Riverbend Amphitheatre with a typically eclectic mix of old-school and new-school punk, plenty of hardcore, tons of screamo, a dash of ska, a dusting of hip-hop and … whatever crunkcore is.
As Warped — the longest-running summer festival tour in the U.S. — continues to evolve, one thing remains clear: No genre is safe. Where in years past screamo and metalcore bubbled up as the predominant sounds of the day, this summer it's hip-hop-inspired popcore's turn, with more than half a dozen bands at the Cincy stop mixing up beats, rock guitars, party-on rhymes and yes, even vocoders.
Among the most popular proponents of the day were Boulder, Colorado's [artist id="3068464″]3OH!3[/artist], whose Sean Foreman and Nathaniel Motte bounced around the stage like 5-Hour Energy-fueled ping-pong balls, bashing out beat-heavy anthems like "Don't Trust Me" and "Holler Til You Pass Out."
Dallas' [artist id="2553714″]Forever the Sickest Kids[/artist] took a slightly different tack, dropping in some rap breakdowns and glitchy keyboard bits into a set that would have made crunk-rock king [artist id="961130″]Lil Jon[/artist] proud. Mixing David Lee Roth-style campy rock with punk attitude and a plea for bras that garnered a barrage of polka-dotted tops, singer Jonathan Cook proudly preened around the stage with his blinged-out FTSK-emblazoned microphone stand during hyped songs like "Whoa Oh! (Me vs. Everyone)" and their signature tune, "She's a Lady."
Among the Warped veterans along for the ride again were ominous Tampa punk metalers [artist id="1227532″]Underoath[/artist], who drew a huge throng of onstage musical admirers as they pummeled the crowd in the main pavilion with fist-pumpers like "Drowning in My Sleep." Another old skull act — making their sixth tour of duty — was political thrashers Bad Religion, who busted out nuggets like the galloping "I Want to Conquer the World" to a weary late-afternoon crowd.
Unlike last summer, when now-mega [artist id="1962774″]Katy Perry[/artist] and ex-boyfriend Travis McCoy of the Gym Class Heroes brought some pop smarts to the tour, the head-bobbing was a bit harder to find this time around. There was the ska bop of Big D and the Kids Table, complete with two shimmying backup singers and a three-piece horn section, and the straight-ahead Abercrombie & Fitch pop-punk of [artist id="2121977″]All Time Low[/artist]. The Maryland quartet drew the biggest crowd of the day in the main pavilion, which was packed 6,000-strong, as the floorboards up front literally bounced up and down during sugary, pogoing shout-alongs like "Lost in Stereo." Elsewhere, the White Tie Affair mixed in some vocoder effects on "Take It Home," the Dirty Heads paid tribute to the white-guy stoner reggae of Sublime, and Utah group Meg & Dia, one of the only female-fronted acts on the day's roster, mellowed things out with some sensitive pop.
There were a few musical palette cleansers among the 60-band onslaught of mostly aggro vocalists playing to the near sell-out crowd of 12,000-plus, including second-generation country outlaw Shooter Jennings. The son of Waylon started off by kicking it "Sweet Home Alabama"-style on straw-chawin' opener "Gone to Carolina." While his laid-back good ol' boy country/ metal mash-up didn't quite fit the mix on the Skullcandy stage — where legendary Fishbone frontman Angelo Moore served as the MC and lent a sax solo to "Radio Goes Dead" — it's hard to argue with a dude who has a revolver tattooed on his forearm and an accompanying bullet on the web of his hand.
Another guy who seemed wrong to mess with was Gallows lead singer Frank Carter, who played his English old-school hardcore band's entire set in the middle of a giant circle pit. As the skies cracked open and rain flooded the parking lot, Carter and guitarist Stephen Carter stood their ground despite microphone shorts and gigantic lightning flashes, screaming the lyrics along with drenched, body-slapping, slipping-down fans.
Oh, right, and there was the crunkcore. It's easy to poke fun at Albuquerque's brokeNCYDE and their punk-hop mash-ups, which is why so many people do. With strip-club-flossin' songs like "Freaxx," "Schizophrenia" and "Get Crunk!," their mix of suburban mall-rat rap and gangsta goofiness has led to questions about whether their four MCs and a click-track shtick even belongs on the tour. But here are two things: a) they drew a gigantic crowd to the smallest stage on the concourse, b) when I heard that throng shouting the refrain from the song "Sex Toyz," I knew it was time to go home.

Because its proximity to U.S. Food and Drug Administration (FDA) makes Maryland an attractive location for life sciences companies, the Commission hopes this program will help attract new companies to the State. Maryland-based companies of all types are eligible to apply for RFA-MD-12-4. Companies conducting clinical research may be based elsewhere in the United States, but the work funded under this RFA must be conducted at a site in Maryland. Companies conducting pre-clinical research must be based in Maryland. No MSCRF funding will be used to support work conducted outside of Maryland.
Applicants for pre-clinical research grants may request up to $500,000 in direct costs, and applicants for clinical research grants are eligible to receive up to $750,000 in direct costs. Both grants will be budgeted over a period of up to three years. RFA-MD-12-4 is intended only for companies requesting funds for projects that have achievable milestones. Studies must comply with all FDA guidelines. In pre-clinical applications, preference will be given to late-stage pre-clinical research. Proposals that involve a clinical trial must have an Investigational New Drug Application (IND) or an Investigational Device Exemption (IDE) cleared by the FDA for the therapy or device under investigation, before the application is submitted to MSCRF for review.
Pre-clinical research grant awards require a 1:2 match (applicant:MSCRF), all or part of which may be an in-k
