Great flower but the video needs to be from the point of view of the person watching the video. Its akward trying to figure out the fold. Im sure its easy but just to get started. Please make video to be watched from our perspective.

I am deaf and I like the video. Like KMP50 says that the printable direction would also help.

Love this flower . This needs a NEW VIDEO!! This one sucks ! But is really an easy flower and you can make it in any size by changing the width of the fabric or even using a ribbon. But seriously--go in the video to the 5.50 min/sec mark and start it. Smaller strips do not need to be glued in half like she does . Also we use a glue gun and it works great. Also when using the smaller strips you can start with a base and glue it down a little and that helps you get a great flower. We use an old pair of jeans as the circle for base. This also gives you a nice piece to glue your hair clip on to.

Almost PerfectBy Rich Gasiorowski, Feb 11, 2015AS the other review I did have the BMW and looks compared to the BMW and AUdi are not fair. The BMW 650 does have appeal but the MBs sleekness is alluring. The car has so many features you will continue eing surprised for the first month of ownership as these features become apparent. Performance is awesome and subtle to anyone on the road until you blow past them. It goes where you point it when you point it. The seats are hands donw more comfortable than the BMW. Like stated I had the BMW for less than two weeks and went over this car. Yes lost some money but it really is well worth it. The car is so enjoyable you want to sleep in the garage. LOL and in very short time this buyer felt no impending doom due to the extra cost of purchasing that BMW and taking the loss. MB does have incentives etc to ease that loss. Love it ...morestyle - extras - comfort - performance and handling

Brains and BeautyBy Greg Wong, Feb 11, 2015The new CLS looks far more modern than the old one. I bought one of these a few months ago and couldn't be happier. I don't understand why someone would get a boring A6/7 or ugly BMW 6-grand coupe when this is available. It's not only pretty, but it has a great interior. It's far from boring, and gets compliments from everyone who sits in it. Its also plenty fast, I can usually get through the lights before anyone else. The only problem is that it's pretty bad on gas. I get about 18 MPG, because I have the 550 with 4Matic. It also needs premium. Overall though, I love this car. The infotainment isn't confusing at all either. ...moreFast, Looks Good, Luxurius, Smooth

Queen Elizabeth Blessed by Chief Rabbi of Britain on Her Jubilee
Rabbi Writes Special Prayer in Queen's Honour
By: News Staff
Those of us who watched as Sir Elton John, Sir Paul McCartney and other iconic entertainers paid tribute to Queen Elizabeth's 60th year on the Royal Throne this week may be surprised – and delighted – to learn that there is also a Jewish angle to the Jubilee celebration.
It turns out that Jonathan Sacks, the Chief Rabbi of Britain, has written a special prayer to commemorate Queen Elizabeth's 60 years on the job.
The prayer, already being recited in shuls across Britain, specifically acknowledges the Queen's attempts to promote good relationships among all faiths.
The prayer reads, in part, as follows: "Her crown is honor and majesty; her scepter, law and morality, equality and freedom. Her concern has been for welfare, freedom and unity, and in the lands of herdominion she has sustained justice and liberty for all races, tongues and creed."
The chief rabbi then went on to wish the Queen many years of health. "Together with all our fellow citizens, we fervently pray that she be granted many more years of blessing so that she may continue to bring honor and glory to the crown and to all her people."
The chief rabbi also called for peace and prosperity in Britain and Israel.
We pray for the peace and prosperity of Britain, for the well-being of the House of Israel, and for the redemption of all mankind under the sovereignty of God," said the rabbi.

Unless you've been living under a rock, or you hate the experience of joy in your life, you're probably aware of and excited about the new Wes Anderson film, Moonrise Kingdom.
It's exciting for a few reasons, as you can see in the trailer — an all-star cast, an intriguing premise, an interesting setting. But maybe the most exciting thing is the name that follows "Directed by". Wes Anderson is one of the last real auteurs in the Hollywood system, working with a set of recurring themes, motifs and actors to create a unique style of film that has almost become a subgenre in itself.
From what we've seen so far, Moonrise Kingdom looks firmly planted within that subgenre. There's snappy editing, deadpan idiosyncratic dialogue, esoteric non sequiturs, and of course, Bill Murray. Some might see it as a lack of creative development, while others will just be happy to hear that Anderson's done it again.
Both groups, however, might get a kick out of playing the new Wes Anderson bingo game. Put together over at Slate, the game generates a bingo board of his trademark tropes, stylistic motifs and collaborators, the idea being that you watch a Wes Anderson film and mark off the squares as they appear onscreen. Even testing it out with the two-minute trailer for Moonrise Kingdom, I managed to mark off half my squares. Haters will enjoy pointing out the repetitive clichés throughout his filmography, while fans will just enjoy an excuse to watch films like Rushmore, The Life Aquatic and The Fantastic Mr. Fox again.
The game also gives you the option to print out your board, so you can take it along to Moonrise Kingdom and play with your friends. Just a tip: if your board doesn't have Jason Schwartzman on it, generate it again.

Boy was there a parade of fash at the Victoria's Secret show last night. And not all of it was good, gals. Let's get to it.
Among the best:
Miranda Kerr would like to remind you that unlike that upstart Chanel Iman, she has cleavage, and you have her permission to, on this one magical night, look upon it. Starting tomorrow, it's back to the usual supermodel side-boob.
Alessandra Ambrosio wouldn't be standing like this unless she was ready for a smackdown, which means there must be more double-sided tape holding her dress in place than there is actual dress. Given that the frock has razor-sharp shards of disco ball all over it, we'll pass on this wrestling match, thanks. Unless our own dress comes covered in corrugated cardboard and six layers of bubble wrap.
We almost put Katrina Bowden's dress in the Worst category until we realized that those aren't cutouts, just nude Band-Aids mixed in with the red.
Among the worst:
Given that we only approve of fishnet stockings maybe once a year—if that—we cannot possibly sanction a fishnet dress. Even when it's paired with Joan Smalls.
Do you feel like Rihanna got a hold of this dress just before Izabel Goulart put it on? And that Ri-Ri was all, "God, there is way too much fabric here, gimme a minute"? Because that's the only way we can explain this.
If Ryan Gosling rolled up on Behati Prinsloo right now and was like, "Oh, hi! Let me dress you up and take you out," she'd slip that dress off right on the pink carpet and immediately leave the party with him—in her underwear. And we all know it.
Someone please rescue Beanpole Candice Swanepoel's boobs before they're crushed in that mammogram machine of a dress.
Thank you. Carry on.

The chapter is out.
Chapter 610 is out;
Link to read it;
Whoa, new chapter just when I turned on the computer, sweet.
Juubi is ugly as sin
I honestly did not understand what naruto did to the Jyuubi's attack. I feel like an idiot.
I didn't fully get what was going on..could someone explain what happened after Jubbi or 9 tails? rolled into 8 tails.
Also, I don't think that blast at the end is going to do much, the Jubbi is probably going to block it
okay fight of giant scale incoming. Though can somebody explain what exactly happened just now?
WTF went on in this chapter? is this Kishi's doing or the scanlator group's doing? So confused, especially the dialogues...
kinda meh fighting though. I was expecting more Rinnegan or Eternal Mangekyou powers/explanation, some more Madara badassery, but all we get are entangled tails and flying rubble.
Looks like Kakashi absorbed the Hachibi right before the blast, but missed a few of his legs so they ended up lying there.
Then the Kyuubi threw Naruto and Kakashi. While in Air Kakashi releases the Hachibi from the Dimension again.
At least that's how i get it. Although these dialogues dont really make sense
heeloo dear otaku's
Imo, Kakashi just being able to use kamui in inner and outer way, just proved that Masashi overdone it, ofcourse there's a logical way around it, since he uses it on himself aswell.
Juubi, is a part of nature itself, since it's infinite natural chakra from all parts, sooo exciting, and atop of him stand two rinnengan wielders, of the legendary sage, that once tammed that scally wag beast, and now they're letting it loose, the goodguys butts are goona be on fire alright, run naruto run! :zomg
Ok, I seem to get it now
After Jubbi super loads the Bijudama, both 9 and 8 tails cancel load, 8 tails gets down as the Bijudama approaches him from the right. 9 tails moves fast towards him so they can both defend against it. As they take the hit some tentacles are cut off, Fox Naruto throws Frog Naruto, Kakashi and a tentacle in the air, Kakashi had moved 8 tails into the other dimension while the dust was settling. And while on top of the Jubbi brought back the 8 tails for a surprise Bijudama. Or something like that..XD
Its not that difficult if you pay a little attention:
the Juubi created a huge shockwave with its tails, Kyuubi and Hachibi tanked the hit, after which the Juubi bitch-slapped Kyuubi.
Then Hachibi and Kyuubi launched a lot of Bijuudamas at the guy, that fired his lazor, obliterating it. Naruto repaired everyone with the Kyuubi shroud while launching the copy ( or the original ? ) together with Kakashi in the air.
During the blast Kakashi absorbed one of Bee's tentacles and then released it with Kamui, and Bee emerged from that tentacle just like he did when he fooled Taka.
Holy hell Kakashi just kamuied the whole Hachibi with the tail henge right on Juubi's face,muhaha that's hilarious...It will finish bad for Bee most probably...
Yamato is dead or so,no problem it will be Captain Kyubi,he is really badass.
Very funny chapter,liked it.

What a nail-biting tie break! I certainly enjoyed every moment of that play off. Well, the Chess World Championship got to an end. It was a great fight between Anand the Champ since 2008 and the challenger Boris Gelfand.
I know both players very well and played with them since the early 90's. It was very interesting for me to see the excellent live coverage of the match on the internet, seeing the two players' body language. Well, I have to admit, it made me feel, I wanted to be there and feel the real atmosphere, be in the real situation, try to see what the two players think of.
I always thought Gelfand had good chances and would give a good fight against Anand. As for Vishy, is was not the first time he played for the title so his motivation was clearly not as high as Gelfand's. For Gelfand it was definitely the chance of his life to go down to history. I know Boris for a long time and I am not sure who else could I name who has so much dedication for the game, enjoys the tournaments, takes the training sessions this seriously. I was sure that he planned and worked out his plan very carefully.
Gelfand was very well prepared for the WC match! (As I know him, I can say, that he is not only an excellent player, but a very nice person, too) He was really fighting for the crown very well. He had a great opening preparation. Actually, it was a surprise for me that Anand was avoiding the main lines in the Sicilian. It probably means that he also had great respect for Gelfand's preparation.
Some say the 12 classical games were not so exciting. I have admit, I think that some of them could have been played out longer really. On the other hand, the rules do not forbid to offer a draw any time of the game at all. So when you have big, no sorry, ENORMOUS pressure and there is nothing more you want but to win the overall match and you believe that half a point makes you to get closer then, of course, you do not care about the spectators, if they are happy with what they see or not.
I think the match itself was very balanced, very close. Actually, Anand was not in a great form at all. He did not seem to be hungry for the game! While Gelfand was fighting as he would do it for his life, especially in the play-offs.
In the tie break it was a great show with full of tension, even the commentator, Peter Svidler seemed to be full of emotions, when he was commentating. Of course, at this stage any move could cost the title. The games were ups and downs with great fight. In the second one I really liked that, after a very bad opening, Boris could turn it around and get fantastic counter play. Bc8 was a fantastic move to me! There I was sure he felt very optimistic. But Vishy is an incredible fighter and after realizing that he ruined it, he had to see that maybe draw would be the realistic result for game 2. Then Boris made a serious mistake, which probably cost him the match. He was always behind on the clock with under a minute. Even this way he played very strong but as in game 2 he lost the thread and the game. Even though with more time he should have made a draw.
Game 3 was a fantastic fight again. I was happy to see that Anand was not playing for a draw at all, but was ready for a sharp fight. For a while it seemed that Boris he had a great position, almost winning position, and then with lot of up and downs again he got a winning rook endgame where he went wrong again.
In game 4 Gelfand had to face a mission impossible. Only nerves could make Anand make a mistake big enough to lose with white in this situation. Gelfand got the better position again in the middle game, and created chances, but was not enough to break through.
I would like to congratulate Anand for winning the match and defending his title! He showed that in the most critical moments he can grab his chances and it is not by chance that he has been the WC for years already, even is this time it was very close.
As for Gelfand, it will be very difficult for him to get over the result. He can point out concrete moves where he can say: If I had played that move I would be world champion now! I'm pretty sure, he will not sleep well tonight, but I am also sure that this match just made Boris' motivation even higher, because he could see that he can put up a fight with the best chess player on the planet of the time.

The whirring of success as Formula E customer car completes test debut
Formula E's new fully-electric race car, the Spark-Renault SRT_01E, has successfully completed its test debut at the La Ferté Gaucher circuit near Choisy-le-Roi, France.
Unveiled this year at the at the Frankfurt Motor Show, the new single-seater was driven by Lucas di Grassi who will be undertaking the early test and development work.
The car completed around 40 laps over two days with the initial task of checking all systems were functioning correctly. For the test, the car was fitted with a 50kw battery, a quarter of the maximum 200kw power (270bhp equivalent) the final car will produce.
The inaugural FIA Formula E Championship, the world's first global electric race series, begins in September 2014.
Readers' comments (9)
A 50kW battery? A battery has a capacity, not a power. Or is this the maximum rate at which the battery can deliver power without overheating?
It's a 8kWh battery and the race battery will be 30kWh. I'm not sure where the kW figures are from, it might be Luca's comments at the end that are misleading the stories. The capacity != max current draw and I doubt they will increase linearly with each other.
This car is trying to look like a Formula One racing car. With this in mind, the average power used by this so-called 'racing' car would have to be something in the region of 175 bhp (about 150 kWs) during the race. This means its 30kWh battery would only last 12 minutes. I can't see racing car enthusiasts or sponsors paying money to watch a twelve-minute Grand Prix can you?
This vehicle has no practical or commercial value whatsoever. It is merely a milk-cow devised by life-style enthusiasts to get the Government to pay for their hobby.
Check out the performance of electric class cars in the Formula Student competitions at Silverstone and Hockenheim this year. Students design and build these cars each year. A fantastic hands on, real life project for these young student engineers.
My thoughts same as above. the sentence:
"For the test, the car was fitted with a 50kw battery, a quarter of the maximum 200kw power (270bhp equivalent) the final car will produce" is nonsense.
See below for a formal response from Formula E.
Excellent piece of kit, well done. Sounds all wrong though!
Hi all,
We thought an official reply from Formula E might help clear this up. The battery all SRT_01E cars will use is 30kw but through various means it produces 200kw of power. So effectively the battery it tested with was an 8kw battery producing 50kw of power and therefore a quarter of the maximum power we will use.
Hope that helps.
That official response doesn't make any more sense than the article. What's the battery's capacity in Wh? What's its maximum power delivery in W?
What's the motor's maximum power?
Usually, the battery power (W) is the battery disharge capacity (Ah) multiplied by the nominal voltage. So, for example, a 2200mAh with 3.6V nominal voltage is said to have a 7.92W power.

TRAFFIC/TRANSIT TODAY: Eclipse WednesdayNovember 28, 2012 at 6:33 am | In West Seattle news, West Seattle traffic alerts | 10 Comments
(Live view from the only WS Bridge camera currently in operation; see other cameras on the WSB Traffic page)
Another quiet start to the commute. However – if you can see the moon to the west – note that a "subtle" type of eclipse is under way right now; here's an explanation.
7:10 AM: The moon's finally going out of range. Still dry outside, but rain is expected to start before this afternoon.

This isn't traffic related more bus but the Seattle Times has a front page story (print edition) about how rapid ride is fast in West Seattle and West Seattle is mostly happy. Guess the reporter didn't talk to anyone in West Seattle…
Comment by Julie — 8:26 am November 28, 2012 #
In case anybody feels the need to do a little writing this morning (i.e. COMMENTS), check out this Rapid Ride article in today's Seattle Times, which begins with the statement, "While the new RapidRide bus mostly lives up to its name in West Seattle, passengers on its sister route to Ballard are routinely stuck in traffic."
Comment by Chris W. — 8:30 am November 28, 2012 #
Please read the whole story beyond the headline (which generally is NOT written by the reporter). The reporter is Mike Lindblom, who is a West Seattleite and who in fact we ran into at the California/Fauntleroy RapidRide stop yesterday morning when we stopped to photograph the Metro rep who was there to talk with riders (the photo was added yesterday morning to the Tuesday traffic/transit tracker – we got a cameraphone shot of Mike talking with Ashley but it didn't come out so well so we didn't use it). You can certainly add your impressions but I just wanted to correct the suggestion he didn't talk to anyone in West Seattle. Mike actually commutes more often by bike/transit than by car and in particular often tweets about RapidRide (http://twitter.com/mikelindblom ) … he comments here, too. I'm sure he will be interested in your substantive thoughts and counter-opinions, though … TR
Selective interviewing at the Times? A Pollyana editor perhaps?
Comment by East Coast Cynic — 10:40 am November 28, 2012 #
Hi neighbors -
Thanks for the criticism and e-mails, keep them coming.
The C Line is my home route. I've taken it about 40 times since the Sept. 29 change. Personally, it's working better for me than the local 54, because of high frequency. (Though I do hate side-facing seats, which cause nausea when reading.)
Certainly it works better than the Ballard line, which was the whole point of today's story….and WS is in better shape than many corridors in the north and central city. If delay is your bag, try the 8 on Denny Way!
If you live south of Findlay Street, try the 116 that goes directly from the ferry terminal via Fauntleroy. That should be faster than a C.
Comment by Mike Lindblom — 10:54 am November 28, 2012 #
A very diaapointing article from a West Seatte resident. Too much K C Metro bias.
Comment by dwar — 11:22 am November 28, 2012 #
I read the article when I first posted about it this morning. I haven't had time to write up what I found so disappointing until now. With the first sentence I can't say that it lives up to its name, the rapid ride isn't more rapid then the 54, 54x and 55. The article notes that the rapid ride has bus only lanes on the West Seattle Bridge and 99 but this is not new because of Rapid ride and the old bus routes used these lanes as well. There's been a bus lane on the West Seattle Bridge since I moved to West Seattle 5 years ago. What is the 17 to 18 minute ride time, is this from Metro? I ride the bus from downtown to the junction and my commute is never that fast. From downtown my commute time has increased 10-20 minutes since they started rapid ride, it used to be about 20-25 minutes and now it is at least 35 and sometimes 50-55 minutes. From everything I read on the West Seattle blog about rapid ride I just can't believe that it's faster for anyone.
Comment by Julie — 12:57 pm November 28, 2012 #
Holy cow Julie, 35 to 55 minutes…What time of day are you traveling? That 17-18 minute typical figure is from reading my stopwatch and phone clock in the mornings, 8:25 a.m. runs from WS Junction to 2/Columbia. Takes another 5-10 minutes to reach Westlake Center because of the downtown and ORCA problems that also mess with the Ballard line.
Look up next time your C bus exits at Avalon Way and turns left to go uphill. It nearly always trips the light green so the bus doesn't have to stop. This is exactly the kind of thing BALLARD doesn't have yet, which was the point of the story.
Comment by Mike Lindblom — 2:36 pm November 28, 2012 #
I take the bus from Pike/Pine at around 530 pm depends on the day. Most of the delays are downtown with waiting for a bus to show up, people trying to cram onto an already full bus, and drivers having to kick off people to put wheel chairs on etc. Then the buses not being able to turn right on Columbia for multiple lights. It often takes 20 minutes just to get out of downtown. One could argue that all buses are delayed by downtown traffic but often the rapid ride gets passed by other routes due to boarding.
Comment by Julie — 4:42 pm November 28, 2012 #
My wife and I have recorded departure and arrival times for 21 of the 40+ morning rush-hour Rapid Ride C trips we've each taken to date from the Morgan Junction stop (California and Fauntleroy) to 2nd and Seneca. The average duration (arithmetic mean) of those trips is 28.5 minutes; the median is 28 minutes. Our average departure time from that stop is 8:14am.
@Mike – You say the 17-18 minute typical figure you found is based on an 8:25 a.m. departure from the Alaska Junction to "2/Columbia." (If I'm not mistaken you mean 2nd and Seneca?) I'm trying to reconcile that with the 28.5-minute average travel time from two stops prior that I've documented. It seems odd that it would take ten or eleven minutes for the Rapid Ride to travel the two stops from California and Fauntleroy to the Alaska Junction. I thought it might be due to varying departure times but when I limit my dataset to departures ten minutes either side of 8:25, the average travel time is still 28.5 minutes.
A longer commute time (versus the 54X) is but one of the many frustrations Rapid Ride has wrought. Others include lack of dependability (no schedule and sporadic gaps between buses), dehumanizingly jam-packed buses bordering on unsafe, and inconveniently larger gaps between stops.
I have been a loyal Metro transit rider for 12 years. The experience of the last few months has caused me greater doubt and shame about Metro than any other experience with Metro in those twelve years.
If riders are now less vocally upset than at the outset of Rapid Ride, I hope it's because service and happiness have improved, and not because riders are now resigned to poorer service and less happiness.

UPDATED: Man shot in leg on Lake Blvd.; 2 suspects at large
Police are searching for two suspects in the shooting of a man at a Redding mobile home park Wednesday evening.
Redding Police Sgt. Jay Guterding said officers went to the Oakwood Mobile Home Park in the 1100 block of Lake Boulevard — about two miles west of its intersection with North Market Street — after they received a call of a man shot about 8:20 p.m.
There, Guterding said, officers found Allen Ray Reynolds, 28, a resident of the park, who had suffered a gunshot wound just above his left knee from a pistol.
He was laying on the pavement near the park's entrance — a tan couch cushion had been placed underneath his head.
The wound was not life-threatening, Guterding said.
Guterding said one person in a white Scion TS two-door coupe shot Reynolds and then drove off.
He said the Scion has a black stripe on the hood with tinted windows. The car had a white man and a white woman inside. The man may have tattoos on his neck.
Guterding said the shooting was not a drive-by shooting. Officers found a single shell casing, he said.
Officers are still investigating what led to the shooting. Guterding said they don't know yet whether drugs or alcohol were a factor.
Reynold's neighbor, Renee Robertson, 47, said she heard one shot from her home. She said prior to the shooting she heard three vehicles spinning their tires. She said she saw Reynolds, his wife and two other young men walking around before hearing another car's squealing tires.
She said Reynolds is a good person who doesn't carry a gun except when hunting.
The shooting closed Lake Boulevard for about 45 minutes between Santa Rosa Way and Keswick Dam Road.
Guterding said anyone who sees a car and the suspects matching the description should call 911 and treat the pair as armed and dangerous.
The shooting was the second one in Shasta County on Wednesday. Another man was shot in Shasta Lake about 11:20 a.m. and remains in critical condition, authorities say. They said the suspect was arrested near the Burger King on Shasta Dam Boulevard.

|Child Neurology: Brachial plexus birth injury: What every neurologist needs to know.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 21844527 Owner: NLM Status: In-Data-Review
|While most often transient, brachial plexus birth injury can cause permanent neurologic injury. The major risk factors for brachial plexus birth injury are fetal macrosomia and shoulder dystocia. The degree of injury to the brachial plexus should be determined in the neonatal nursery, as those infants with the most severe injury-root avulsion-should be referred early for surgical evaluation so that microsurgical repair of the plexus can occur by 3 months of life. Microsurgical repair options include nerve grafts and nerve transfers. All children with brachial plexus birth injury require ongoing physical and occupational therapy and close follow-up to monitor progress.

Nuclear Power is inefficient
May 19, 2011 in Nuclear
And it is not like we haven't had more efficient replacements for at least 20 years: solar and wind
The lasting product of nuclear power is not electricity but nuclear waste. In a sense, it can be considered as a large example of greed. While the current generation will benefit with electricity (37%), future generations will only have the by product–nuclear waste (67%) to deal with. This is wrong.
Nuclear power plants are dangerous and a hugely inefficient way to produce electricity. Some have likened its efficiency to using a cannon to ring a door bell. It production is divided 37% for electricity and 67% for nuclear waste that subsequent generations will have to babysit for generations.

Guest Book
Amitabha is the Buddha of Infinite Light and as one of the Five Transcendent
Buddhas is Buddha of the west . He is red in color, wears
monastic clothes and holds a bowl in his hands.
He represents the laserlike light of perception.
His symbol is the lotus and most famous emanation is Avalokiteshvara.
In this thangka Amitabha sits in blissful contemplation in his Western Pure Land Called Sukhavati, the Land of Bliss amid both natural features and architectural elements. Everything about this painting is peaceful and contemplative, from the monastic buildings behind Amitabha and in the lower corners to the children splashing in the water in front of him. Anyone who prays wholeheartedly to go there may be reborn in Sukhavati out of a lotus, as are four figures in this painting.
This is a sizeable painting measuring 19.5 by 26 inches. It is quite clean and unfaded. There are five horizontal lines of wear with some paint loss, indicating that it was rolled from the top and some dampness caused the problem in ever widening bands, stopping in the area where the children are swimming.
The first photograph shows the entire thangka (it has no mountings), the second shows the central figure, the next four show the four corners clockwise from the upper left.

Does This Start-Up Stack Up? Rank & Style Makes Top-10 Lists, Backed By Math
The team has developed an algorithm that takes product reviews, blogger mentions, best-seller lists, and editorial recommendations, and more to populate its own top 10 lists. Regularly created, these lists cover a range of things you know you want to buy (pumps, lipsticks, beauty balms, blazers…) and present a hit list of essential info as well as a link to buy it. For now, the reviews and sources it has used to rank each collection of products are still hidden, but it's an add-on feature it would love to include in the future. The site officially launched today, so head on over to take a look.

Oil Plus Food Plus Floods Equals Trouble
Central bankers spooked by costly oil have a new bugaboo: rain falling in the wrong breadbaskets (soppy Iowa instead of parched Australia). On June 18 severe floods in the Midwest sent corn for July delivery to $7.46 a bushel on the Chicago Board of Trade, a record for the contract. And the oil-food double whammy is putting pressure on prices all over. Eurostat announced on June 16 that inflation in the 15-nation euro zone hit 3.7% for the year ended in May, raising the likelihood that the European Central Bank will raise its key short-term rate in July. But hiking the cost of money could harm slow-growing countries like Italy and Spain. Ditto for the U.S., where inflation is uncomfortably high (4.2% for the year ended in May). Still, a June 17 report showed that U.S. housing starts fell in May to the lowest level since March, 1991.
AIG Makes a Change
Yet another financial-services chief departs. On June 15 the board of insurer American International Group (AIG) replaced CEO Martin Sullivan with Robert Willumstad. But investors, desperate for change since AIG has racked up $13 billion in losses in the past two quarters, were far from wowed. Willumstad, 62, has been AIG's chairman for nearly two years after leaving as president and COO of Citigroup (C) in July, 2005, so he was present for those big losses. AIG stock fell 7% in three days.
The Saudi Spigot
A week before the June 22 powwow it called to discuss oil prices gone wild, Saudi Arabia told U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon that it plans another production boost. The Saudis, who hiked output by 300,000 barrels a day in June, now propose to add 200,000 a day in July, for a total output of 9.7 million barrels a day. The kingdom responding to political pressure from the U.S. and Asian customers, but the move seems unlikely to bring down prices much from the $130-plus level. In light of that, President George W. Bush on June 18 said it's time for Congress to end the federal ban on offshore oil drilling. Meanwhile, Big Oil may soon sign contracts to operate in Iraq for the first time since the fall of Saddam.
Street Jitters
On the heels of Lehman Brothers (LEH) earnings disaster last week, Wall Street fearfully anticipated results from Goldman Sachs (GS) and Morgan Stanley (MS). But on June 17, Goldman posted profits of $2.09 billion, down 11% but handily topping analyst estimates. Morgan, down 57%, also beat expectations, with earnings of $1.03 billion. That's where the similarities ended. Goldman traders capitalized on soaring commodities prices. Morgan made contrarian bets against commodities—and paid for them. Its profits were boosted by asset sales.
See "Goldman's Profit Prowess"
Boeing Vindicated
The aerospace giant is back in the dogfight. On June 18 a federal arbiter sustained Boeing's (BA) formal complaint that the Air Force unfairly chose to order 179 refueling tankers from Northrop Grumman (NOC) and European Aeronautic Defence & Space. That revives Boeing's hopes to land the $35 billion contract. Now the Air Force must ponder whether to hold a new competition, giving Boeing another chance to bid—or divvy up the deal among all three companies. And Boeing's supporters in Congress can try to use the findings to block tanker financing or force the Air Force to change planes.
Bear Stearns Fallout
Ex-Bear Stearns hedge fund managers Ralph Cioffi and Matthew Tannin may be the first Wall Street executives to face criminal charges from the mortgage market meltdown. As of press time, a federal grand jury in Brooklyn, N.Y., was nearing a decision to indict the two on charges stemming from last summer's collapse of two Bear funds. In early 2007 the managers told investors that the funds were performing well even as the pair scrambled to keep them afloat.
See "Indictment Looms for Bear Fund Managers"
Satellite Green Light?
The static over a planned merger between XM Satellite Radio (XMSR) and Sirius Satellite Radio (SIRI) may finally be clearing. FCC Chairman Kevin Martin on June 16 said he would approve the deal if the companies make eight concessions. Among them: allowing anyone to make satellite radio gear and opening some channels to noncommercial and minority-owned broadcasters. Martin needs at least two other commissioners to vote for the deal, and sources at the FCC say he hasn't yet lined up those votes.
See "Sirius-XM Deal: The Pace Quickens"
The Battle for Bud
It looks as if Anheuser-Busch (BUD) won't go gently into the sudsy embrace of Belgian giant InBev, which made a $46 billion bid for the maker of Budweiser on June 10. Anheuser executives met with Grupo Modelo, the Mexican brewer of Corona beer, to discuss buying the 49.8% of the company it doesn't already own as a deterrent to InBev. But InBev CEO Carlos Brito has also met with Modelo to head off such a deal, and on June 17 he visited Washington in an effort to soothe lawmakers worried about Budweiser—right up there with Mom and apple pie—falling into foreign hands.
Finance in China
Global investors hungry for a bigger slice of China's financial-services market may soon have something to chew on. Beijing is pondering raising the cap on foreign participation in joint trusts to 49%, from the 20% to 25% set last year. Barclays (BCS), National Australia Bank, and Ashmore Investment Management have just won approval to establish joint trusts in partnership with Chinese firms. Morgan Stanley and Royal Bank of Scotland (RBS) are negotiating. Through a trust, investors can indirectly hold controlling stakes in a wide assortment of financial outfits. (Caijing Magazine)
Will U.S. Jobs Come Home?
The economics of trade are starting to tilt back in favor of American manufacturing. The dollar has plunged, Chinese wages are soaring, and transpacific shipping rates are taking off thanks to the spike in oil prices. Some U.S. industries already are showing more life—but a mass repatriation of factory jobs from China seems unlikely anytime soon.
Hearst's CEO Falls
"Irreconciliable differences." That's how Hearst explained the surprise resignation of CEO Victor Ganzi on June 18. Insiders say the board tired of Ganzi's tendency to make minority investments in new ventures rather than bigger bets on outright ownership. Last year, Hearst threw off well above $1.5 billion in cash flow on revenues topping $8 billion. Ganzi was only Hearst's sixth CEO, and he will be replaced temporarily by his predecessor, Frank Bennack Jr., vice-chairman of the board. Bennack's nearly 24-year tenure as CEO ended in 2002.
See "Hearst CEO Steps Down"
Forget About Bidding
You think eBay (EBAY), you think auctions, right? Not necessarily. The convenience of one-click shopping and the plethora of price information online are luring shoppers away from auctions. So instead of focusing on bidding wars for one-of-a-kind items, eBay is fostering the sale of goodies in sealed boxes for set prices. Will the retail strategy work for the site whose raison d'être was online auctions?
DreamWork's New Pal
Who ever imagined that Bollywood money might free Steven Spielberg and David Geffen from their chains? Their DreamWorks SKG studio has long had a thorny relationship with its owner, Viacom's (VIA) Paramount Pictures, but The Wall Street Journal said on June 18 that Reliance ADA Group, one of India's largest entertainment conglomerates, may kick in up to $600 million in capital, which would allow DreamWorks to leave Paramount later this year.
Ireland: Thumbs Down
The European Union's reform plans lie in shambles after 53% of Irish voters torpedoed the Lisbon Treaty on June 13, fearing it would hand Brussels too much power. The treaty aims to streamline the EU's inefficient decision-making process, among other things naming a full-time president. Ireland is the only one of 27 EU members to put the treaty to a vote, but consent has to be unanimous. European leaders will convene on June 19-20 to strategize.
No Trial for Milberg
The shrinking shareholder law firm with a shrinking name (it was once Milberg Weiss Bershad Hynes & Lerach) now has a shrinking bank account. On June 17, Milberg agreed to pay $75 million to avoid a criminal trial on charges it paid kickbacks to lead plaintiffs in securities class actions. The deal caps a seven-year investigation that produced guilty pleas from name partners William Lerach and Melvyn Weiss, both of whom were sentenced to prison. By avoiding a possible conviction at trial, Milberg can stay in business.
Higher Health Costs
It's a widespread assumption—health-care costs always go up. Yet according to a new report, the rate of growth in U.S. medical outlays by companies and workers is set to level off after falling for five years. The study predicts that costs will climb by 9.8% in 2008 and 9.6% in 2009. (PricewaterhouseCoopers)
A Handshake in Asia
China and Japan, at loggerheads for years over gas fields in a disputed region of the East China Sea, have reached a meeting of the minds. On June 18, Beijing and Tokyo said they'll co-develop one field and jointly explore for others. Sino-Japanese ties have been on the mend since Junichiro Koizumi, whom Chinese leaders distrusted for his visits to a shrine memorializing war criminals, stepped down as Prime Minister in 2006. Chinese President Hu Jintao traveled to Tokyo in May, the first such visit in a decade.

I'm about to celebrate my two-week anniversary here at Southwest (cupcakes, anyone?) and have had some time to reflect on being the new kid on the block. My first day began with a Wild Turkey Call Contest at lunch–a rite of passage I think everyone should go through. The next day I was treated to a Thanksgiving feast that put my Grammy's down-home affair to shame (sorry, Grammy.) As I'm settling in, I realize the rumors are true. Everyone is incredibly sweet and helpful, a sense of family is prevalent anywhere you go, and there are always snacks in the break room. I look forward to gaining my Southwest Freshman 15. Oh, and I get to go on field trips to faraway, exotic lands: like Studios 21 in Fort Worth, TX for an official Live Chat.
Okay, so it wasn't necessarily live, but it was a "bright lights, big studio" situation. I had the pleasure and privilege of being a studio audience member on Tuesday, December 1st. Patrick Lencioni, president of the Table Group, sat down with our own Colleen Barrett to get her words of wisdom on the secret of Southwest's success.
Turns out, there are no secrets. And in the beginning, there was no master plan. In fact, Colleen's reply to Patrick's question about retaining their underdog status was surprising. She said if it hadn't been for bigger and wealthier airlines picking on us, Southwest could have failed within the first year. As it was, our legal battles and early challenges gave birth to one of our Core Values: the Warrior Spirit. Turns out constantly being pushed to search for innovative solutions to early start-up problems was actually a blessing in disguise. So when life gives you lemons, make…Wild Turkey on the rocks?
As many of you may know, living the Southwest way has called for embracing three Core Values: the Warrior Spirit, a Servant's Heart, and a Fun-LUVing attitude. But it turns out Colleen was against putting these intangible attitudes into writing for a long time.
"I fought with them eight or nine months," she said concerning the effort. She felt (and for good reason) that trying to define a company's spirit in just a few words would limit them. Another anecdote I loved had to do with Herb Kelleher, Colleen, and a bunch of consultants trying to come up with the Company's mission statement. After hours of frustration, Herb politely asked the consultants to go: "We'll pay you your money, but just leave. We'll write it ourselves."
It's that can-do, stubborn, entrepreneurial spirit that lives on at Southwest today. And it was a trait Patrick couldn't get enough of. He praised Southwest's uniqueness and humility, while emphasizing that he was not on the company payroll! As the president of The Table Group, a consulting firm focused on building healthy organizations, Patrick's admiration of Southwest was heartfelt. "It's an outstanding company, but it's also messy. There are no 'Stepford Wives' types there." As he went on to describe Southwest as "the one family on the block with toys and tricycles in the front yard, and always-open doors," I felt extremely lucky to have found my way into this "messy" family—tricycles or not.
If you happen to have access to the SkillSoft's Leadership Development Channel, I highly recommend you check this Live Chat out. You can find more information at http://www.skillsoft.com/products/LDC/ I'll be the one waving in the back.

The Japanese government's restructuring of Tokyo Electric Power Co. is going down in the history books as one of the biggest nationalizations ever.
On Wednesday, Japan's government approved a restructuring plan for Tepco, with the government injecting Y1 trillion yen (US$12.5 billion) into the company, giving it more than 50% ownership. The deal puts the operator of the stricken Fukushima Daiichi nuclear plant under temporary state control, with a plan to restore profitability within two years and return to bond markets by the middle of the decade.

text: Last US WWI Vet Dead at 110 Frank Buckles was final survivor of 5 million Americans who served By Rob Quinn, Newser Staff Posted Feb 28, 2011 1:55 AM CST STORY COMMENTS (11) (Newser) – The last doughboy has died. Frank Buckles, the last surviving American veteran of World War I, died peacefully of natural causes at his farm in West Virginia at age 110, the Washington Post reports. Buckles, who was born in Missouri in 1901, lied about his age to get into the military at 16 and served as an ambulance driver in France. In World War II, he spent three and a half years as a civilian prisoner of war in the Philippines after being captured by the Japanese. Buckles, who appeared before Congress in 2009 to make the case for creating a national World War I memorial, spent several years as the last survivor of the almost 5 million Americans who served in the conflict. "I knew there'd be only one someday," he said a few years ago. "I didn't think it would be me." Thanks to a special exemption ordered by George W. Bush in 2008, Buckles will be buried at Arlington National Cemetery despite not having a Medal of Honor, Purple Heart, or having been killed in action.

There were loud claps of thunder and lightening that could be heard throughout the national anthems in Donetsk – just another bump in the ups and downs of the Euro 2012 Group Matches.
Co-host and Group D leaders Ukraine were riding high going into the game – the excitement from Shevchenko's two goals against Sweden on Monday still hadn't died down and many believed that they would able to qualify and move on to the quarter finals. All they needed was a win.
France needed the win as well – not to qualify, but to just hold on to their spot.
The third position holders needed the win to improve their points; with only one point on the board before kickoff, their final game against Sweden would've been much more pivotal to securing their spot in the quarter finals. Continue reading Euro 2012 is Full of Surprises

Plants for Narrow Spaces
Planting in narrow garden beds is as much an art form as a challenge for many garden designers, myself included!
The dilemma begins at the garden center.
Beautiful, petite shrubs in one-gallon pots and streamlined trees in 15 gallon containers can be deceptive.
All plants grow tall and wide, just like babies and puppies, so you better know what you are planting before digging in!
You need "vertical plants!"
If you have a small, narrow yard the trick is to find plants that grow taller than wide.
Think about it.
You can fit more NBA basket ball players and super models in a small yard than sumo wrestlers, right?
Columnar Cereus is a great example of a tall plant that fits into a narrow garden bed.
Burglars beware!
You won't be entering through these windows!
Tips and creative ideas for selecting plants and trees for your small space
- Select tress that have a narrow ,slender, or columnar shape. Palm, Cypress, Gingkos and Crape Myrtle trees fit into this category. Research trees that are ideal for your climate.
Metal art decor dresses up a plain looking Palm tree trunk.
- Transform a tall, woody shrub into a small tree by removing some of the low, lateral branches.
- Train a woody vine such as this Wisteria into a small, blooming tree!
This reinforced metal cage is used to support and train the "Wisteria tree"
Need a privacy hedge?
Golden Goddess clumping bamboo fits beautifully into this very narrow planting space.
Cyperus papayrus is a lush, tall leggy plant that looks dramatic against a wall or in tight garden spaces like this one.
Narrow pathways and tiny garden beds like this one are perfect for aromatic lavender.
Brush up against it and be rewarded with perfume!
Lavender is pliable and if it gets too wide, trim the outer stems back.
Strappy plants and ornamental grasses are also ideal plants for narrow areas.
Remove foliage around the perimeter to control it's "girth size"
Girth Control!
Plant your favorite vine over an arch to direct the eye upwards in a small garden.
A vertical wall garden can make a huge impact on a yard that is mostly concrete or patio!
Plant cascading evergreen and flowering plants.
Maximize the impact of seasonal or annual flowers by planting them in stacked containers that are placed within the small garden bed.
This is a great example of a three tiered container garden vignette.
Here's an example of one of my small garden designs with plenty of tall, vertical elements and plants.
A water fountain is flanked by climbing roses in the background, tall, airy, Kangaroo Paw hedges, strappy daylilies and white tree roses
Keep in mind that if you don't have room for rose bushes, tree roses are a wonderful compromise.
So, don't tell me your yard is too small to be interesting!
It's up to you, go out and garden and don't be afraid to be creative!

Cool post, Shirley. I am in the process of trying to use plants for privacy on my fence. There's a gate that slides open to let the car through, so the space is very narrow. Your pics are giving me some more ideas.
I thought our readers might like this post, too so I tweeted you (@lochnessponds)
This is a great post. Narrow spaces are very difficult to deal with but they are also very common. Good ideas! Thanks!
Here is a topic I love. I have always wanted to have a big garden in a huge yard, but the reality of city living is making due with what space we have. Thanks for the insight!
Very informative post. Actually it is common sense gardening when it comes to limited space, particularly narrow ones. "My space is too small to have a garden" is lame excuse. By the way, great pics.
[…] Shirley Bovshow: Edenmaker, Los Angeles, CA […]
What beautiful photos, Shirley! And I LOVE the cereus – wish we could grow them up here in Norcal! And I really wish I had thought of that line "You can fit more NBA basket ball players and super models in a small yard than sumo wrestlers, right?" Brilliant!!
Shirley, great suggestions for this topic!
The stacked planters (Brass?) are amazing, and the Miscanthus exploding out of the Ipomoea is absolutely stunning!
Dear Shirley,
What a complete wealth of ideas there are in your piece!
You are SO talented.
And I love your humour!
Pruning up shrubs is often done by the deer here so we just 'fix' what they've started! The supports for that wisteria? Here, Wisteria is a thug and would pull down that dainty support system in just a year or two!

Shirley, I love the poolside planting. Those papyrus look elegant against that dark-stained fence. And the tiered planting bowls are intriguing too. You've provided lots of beautiful inspiration!

The Roadster manual has a section that states, "If you plan to leave the vehicle unused for longer than 15 days, it is recommended that you leave the vehicle connected to the High Power Connector and select the 'Storage' charge setting using the Touch Screen."
I'm assuming the Touch Screen is the touch screen inside the vehicle, which means Storage mode is controllable from the vehicle. I'm also assuming the Model S will have a similar mode and recommendation for storage. Does anyone know if the High Power Wall Connector is needed for Storage mode to work properly? (Or is it just as effective when plugged into a wall outlet?)
Wall outlet will be fine, I'd bet my life on it, at any storage ambient temperature, as it's the same as a trickle charger.
It should be just as effective if plugged into a wall outlet. I believe the High Power Wall Connector is for charging the battery pack at 10-20kw. The model S will have a storage mode (according to Stephen Smith of TM).

Woman killed cat to "wear it" to Lady Gaga concert, say OK City cops
Posted by Casey Glynn 3 comments

(CBS) OKLAHOMA CITY - A woman who police say was making plans to attend a Lady Gaga concert allegedly killed and mutilated a cat to use as part of an outfit to wear to the show.
Angelina Barnes, 20, of Oklahoma City has been charged with animal cruelty, authorities say.
The court affidavit says Barnes was found in an outfit she planned to wear to the Gaga concert - a long coat and streaks of what turned out to be cat blood on her face.
Barnes was found by a relative, reportedly in a completely darkened house.
"There were things done to the house like covering light switches with duct tape so she wouldn't be able to turn on the light," Oklahoma City Sgt. Gary Knight said, reports KFOR. According to Knight, the relative feared that Barnes would try to harm her.
Police discovered the cat drowned and mutilated in the bathroom tub, says KFOR.
Barnes was taken to the hospital where she reportedly threatened a nurse with a piece of glass. According to the station, those close to Barnes say that although she was being treated for depression, this type of violent behavior is out of character.
Barnes was being treated at Griffin Memorial Hospital.
Lady Gaga's tour made a stop in Oklahoma City this week.

Purchase College freshman Susan Bigler, center, was named the Skyline Conference's Rookie of the Week three times this past season. / Photo courtesy of Purchase College athletics
Sometimes a new coach gets to a program and finds an empty cupboard of talent.
Sue Scheer arrived at Purchase College for her first women's soccer head coaching job in July and found a Brewster-bred freshman named Susan Bigler.
"I'd call it luck," said Scheer, who came up the Hutchinson River Parkway from Iona College, where she was women's soccer assistant. "I had no familiarity with any of the players. But in the preseason, Susan started to shine. Right then, we knew she'd contribute and keep contributing."
Scheer had no idea at the time how understated that thought was. By the end of the season, her star forward not only led the NCAA Division III Skyline Conference with 21 goals in 20 games, but tied the school scoring record Albana Krasniqi set in 2005.
Already a successful program, but a defensively fueled one, Bigler added a much-wanted offensive force. While Bigler helped the Panthers to a 9-8-3 overall record and a spot in the conference semifinal, where they lost on penalty kicks after playing to a 0-0 tie in overtime, Bigler was cited as the conference's Rookie of the Week three times.
Not a bad yield for an all-section selection who led state runner-up North Salem in scoring last year, but only by a couple of goals. But then, Bigler had her sights set on bigger things when she chose Purchase over Johnson and Wales University, among several other interested recruiters.
"I knew what I wanted from the beginning," Bigler said. "I knew I wanted to be a starter and help the team as best I could. I think the preseason just kind of showed I was doing that."
Bigler, a fast, aggressive striker, created many of her goals through sheer speed, according to Scheer. But that alone could indicate an even brighter future for the rapidly budding star. Both coach and player admit there are holes in her game that can be filled with practice to make her an even more efficient player.
"My first touch needs improvement," Bigler said. "It's not as controlled as I want it."
Scheer said she wants Bigler to play more with her back to the goal, accepting a pass not to score, but to draw the defender into her. The idea is that she'll pass off, and then take a return pass once she fills the space the defender vacated, thereby creating even easier scoring opportunities for herself and her teammates.
As for attitude, Bigler has plenty of it - in a good way. Scheer said Bigler is eminently coachable. And Bigler, for her part, isn't awed by either the speed or competitive level of the college game.
"I think it's a lot of the same stuff we used to do in high school," Bigler said. "There's not that big of a difference."
About the only shocks were those rookie of the week awards.
"I was surprised when I got the first one," Bigler said. "But the second or third were even more surprising because I felt there were other girls who were more deserving than me."
Scorers do get the attention, however. Had Purchase been eligible to be included in the NCAA Division III statistics - a newcomer, it has been on a provisional status the past couple years and not eligible for the stats list or the tournament - Bigler would have ranked 19th nationally with her 1.05 goals-per-game average.
Bigler sees only big things in the future. With freshman having started in five spots, and only five seniors on the roster, the Panthers are well-set for talent for the next several years.
In other words, this year's conference semifinal loser could transform itself quickly into an NCAA tournament team in a year or two. The Panthers will be NCAA eligible next season.
"I definitely see us making it that far," Bigler said. "I can feel we're all making a really big connection."
If it continues, that jackpot Scheer hit with Bigler may soon turn into a big old pot of gold.

NORTH KINGSTOWN ŌĆō North Kingstown taxpayers will help determine the future of the Wickford Elementary School (WES) building and decide whether or not to install artificial turf at McGinn Park in a special election Tuesday.
In the first of three questions, voters will be asked to issue $850,000 in bonds to finance the installation of artificial turf and make related improvements to the McGinn Park Field, which is only useable for only two months out of the year due to the intensity of activity.
Hundreds of miles and five weeks later Joe "Tiger" Patrick is reaching the place, where his life changed forever on Sept. 11, Ground Zero, New York City.
On Aug. 7, Patrick began a journey taking a train to Washington D.C. and then walking from the Pentagon to Shanksville Pa, and on to New York City in one month just in time to reach Ground Zero on Sept. 11. Along his trip, he travelled to the Pentagon in Arlington, Virginia to Shankesville, Penn., to Ground Zero in New York to honor the fallen victims of Sept. 11, 2001.


text: Lately I've been thinking about selling my Grulla mare as she has a little too much go for me. Registered APHA - Katies Oggi, she stands at 15 or 15.1hhs. She's super sweet and loves attention. Stands good for shots, wormer and farrier. She has had 60 days professional training towards western pleasure. I don't have any pictures much of her being ridden since I'm the only one that takes them usually and since I was riding it was kinda hard. She hasn't been ridden for a while and would need a refresher. Flexes great from the ground and saddle. Leads, Stands tied, and stables. She's more of a timid mare and doesn't stand her ground to other horses. The last picture is terrible but its the only picture I have of her riding :S
