This chart is from CNN's website. Gas prices around the world (in US dollars per gallon).
Pretty astonishing collection of data:
Gasoline prices in the United States, which have recently hit record highs, are actually much lower than in many countries. Drivers in some European cities, like Amsterdam and Oslo, are paying nearly 3 times more than those in the U.S.
The main factor in price disparities between countries is government policy, according to AirInc, a company that tracks the cost of living in various places around the world. Many European nations tax gasoline heavily, with taxes making up as much as 75 percent of the cost of a gallon of gasoline, said a spokesperson for AirInc.
Netherlands Amsterdam $6.48
Norway Oslo $6.27
Italy Milan $5.96
Denmark Copenhagen $5.93
Belgium Brussels $5.91
Sweden Stockholm $5.80
United Kingdom London $5.79
Germany Frankfurt $5.57
France Paris $5.54
Portugal Lisbon $5.35
Hungary Budapest $4.94
Luxembourg $4.82
Croatia Zagreb $4.81
Ireland Dublin $4.78
Switzerland Geneva $4.74
Spain Madrid $4.55
Japan Tokyo $4.24
Czech Republic Prague $4.19
Romania Bucharest $4.09
Andorra $4.08

Puerto Rico San Juan $1.74
Saudi Arabia Riyadh $0.91
Kuwait Kuwait City $0.78
Egypt Cairo $0.65
Nigeria Lagos $0.38
Venezuela Caracas $0.12
In a few Latin America and Middle-East nations, such as Venezuela and
Saudi Arabia, oil is produced by a government-owned company and local
gasoline prices are kept low as a benefit to the nation's citizens, he
said. All prices updated March, 2005.

The even more important question: How many gallons/litres of gas can you buy for one hour of work – average wages?
With that in mind, the list would be very different.
The metric of hours of work per gallon of gas would be instructive. But so would the avg gallons of gas purchased per year. Clearly Americans pay a lot less for gas than just about any other industrialized nation, we also drive a great deal more than Europeans, Japanese, etc. So a significant rise in the cost of gasoline hits our pocketbooks far harder than it would in other major Western economies because we use so damn much of it. I'll tell you, I personally could afford $3, $5, even $10 a gallon for gas. But lately, though it doesn't really change my spending habits, I certainly react when I see $50 rung up on the pumps. For folks less financially secure, I can imagine it's quite a punch in the gut.
For Europeans the cheap gas prices in the USA are proverbial.
An urban legend in europe is that in the USA a lot of people do not switch of the engine while for example shopping, so the aircondition is still running when they come back to the car.
So we Dutch have the highest gas prices in the world? Well, you got to get your taxes somewhere, better tax the people ruining my air.
Since the high prices for gas here are mainly due to taxes, the overall economic impact is marginal. Gas taxes are substituting for taxes on things we actually want people to do, like work. That doesn't mean individual behaviour doesn't change. For example, I'm 26 and don't even have a drivers license. I guess that would be rather strange in the US but it is not really a problem here.
I agree with Tobi and disagree with Oyvind. U.S residents do not NEED to drive more. The way people form the U.S say that is because you are simply used in wasting any type of resources that can be wasted. American do not care about oil scarcity and so on. Just look at the engines you guys use, the of comsumption of gas of american engines are far higher than European countries. I thiese countries the governments are concious about the environmental problem, as well as the supply in the long-run issue. Europens drive less cause in their societies are use to care about the country and everybody else within their society.
I remember the Oil Crisis of the 70′s when folks with the steel "whales" were aghast, demoralized, and desperate to get rid of them. Along came Uncle Sam with CAF standards. Then along came the Big Three and built SUVs on truck chassis's that weren't subject to CAF. And now followed by another Oil Crisis.
What does a 100 pound housewife or her hubby need with a Hummer or Navigator?
Europeans have had diesels for 60 years, plus and have stretched the fuel with efficient engineering. We just waste, make ourselves feel good and burn fuel that other folks NEED.
Cut out your average European country from a map, then place it on the same scale map as the US. Guess what? Some of you folks live in areas smaller than most of out states. You have an intact mass transportation system, apparently your governments can run your railroads better than ours. At least you have a working rail system for people. We have a mess of a ground mass transportation system. It has us forced into using cars and trucks for getting from here to there. And even we scoff at those who drive Hummers. I drive 82 miles round trip just to get to work in a car that gets 38mpg. There is no other way to get to the job, there is no bus, trolley, interurban or train, just pavement. But in this country, adjusting for inflation, when gas gets to about $3.75 a gallon here, it will cost me just as much as it did my Dad in 1961 at 22 cents a gallon.
I agree with Charlie. I live in the US and what a lot of us Europeans fail to take into account is the sheer scale. European cities are cramped with the average size of buildings taller than in the US (the US has a LOT more "urban sprawl"). This could be a result of WW2 with Europeans having to rebuild but Americans just kept on building out, bereft of any devastation.
When I first came here I was shocked by the size and scale of the roads. In the UK you have little two lane roads (one each side) for a lot of the roads until you get to main arteries with 4 lanes, or motorways (UK version of "freeway") with 6 lanes or more. Here, there are motorways (6+ lanes) everywhere inside the city, filtering into 4 lanes each side for sections of a neightborhood then finally to your home. It's planned differently so as a consequence mass transit didn't need to develop as fast or as complex as in Europe where it was economical vs having expensive road-building.
Phil – I'm sorry but I respectfully disagree. There is a problem with what you say, and that is the current popular opinion. The nascent green/environment movement is changing and realizing that preaching something unlivable or unworkable, such as going "off-grid" or bicycling everywhere, is a primary reason they have failed thus far. Give Americans something they can -DO- and still live the same way will solve that, and hybrid cars are it. Good milage, sports car versions, give them the do-good feeling AND the bang-for-your-buck feedback they share with the rest of humanity.
Caring about people in their societies, their countries? Europeans? Germany didn't think that way just 60 years ago and Russia isn't such a good bet there either. Please remember that the first heavy industries started in the UK and flourished in the Ruhr Valley, the Europeans are no angels and because you feel good sorting trash into separates or walking everywhere won't abrogate that collective responsibility. You can't blame the Americans for using something the Germans first utilized (Benz "cars") or the British seized Middle Eastern countries to protect; they just do it on a large scale.
You have to give people a workable solution not something that is going to totally disrupt their society, that they will never willingly or happily do. I care about the environment too, but I can't make money with printing, or using electricity, or getting to clients far-flung across the world; it has to be usable. If someone came out with Hydrogen power tomorrow it will STILL take 20 years to get into full-swing. You'd need new tankers, new distribution systems, new car-plants, new car-designs, new production plants, it is like copying the petroleum industry, wow talk about a migraine…
As for gasoline, it is reaching the cost point per barrel of oil where it is feasible for a lot of people to start putting some serious money into finding something else (namely Hydrogen, possibly water). The best thing you can do is to petition your government for higher gasoline taxes or buy hybrids (also has the minor side-effect of lowering sales for the "dirty" car companies).
Gasoline Pricing
Having lived in the US for ten years or so I think I have become used to the low prices of gasoline in the US. Yes, I said low. I don't think Americans have any concept of what gasoline costs elsewhere in the world, which is sad because if they …
Please don't perpetuate the water engine myth.
Hybrids are the best practical solution. Where will we get the millions of pounds of hydrogen needed for cars? The US will need about 200 more nuclear plants to create all of the electricty needed to product the hydrogen for cars. Not gonna happen.
As long as Bush wants to wipe out all the forests why not build a few more dams too? Just kidding there… However,
Hydo-electric power is cheap and clean. With current induction coil technology it would seem we could produce near-free electricity for Hydrogen conversion using oceanic wave action. After all, what will Hydrogen sell for when it becomes an alternative fuel for cars and is in bigger demand?
All of you speak as if gas is the only use for oil. Hello, stop look around your home and throw out everything that was built with or has used a petroleum based product to produce. I would bet that everyone from you in the cramped Europe to the space hog America to the bike riding Asians will end up with an empty home. No wait is your home painted was it put together with nails, well you will be left with nothing.
Hydrogen sounds like a great idea; however, is it practical. If it coast nothing to drive and our conscience was clear that we were not polluting then we would drive more. If we drove more then we would wear out tire quicker, made from petroleum. More people could afford a vehicle (many many petroleum product go into the production of vehicles) which means more people driving. More roads would need to be built. So have we really cut back on our petroleum consumption?
I thought the war in Iraq was suppose to stabilize gas prices??
Fukk Bush!!
solar power & energy from solar panels is free,,,,50 square miles of solar panels in Arizona, would supply electricity needs for 3 states. Who owns most solar panel companies,,BP OIL AND SHELL OIL!!
We must remember the war in Iraq has nothing to do with the price of our gas. We have to remember it is a business and they use the war as an excuse to inflate prices. It is the business that sets the price of their product, not the government. If they wanted to lower the prices they could, but again money talks.
It really bothers me that George Bush, Jr. spends the American money in Iraq, and he is on vacation and than a fund raiser. What about the people of our United States? Being a president means for the whole country, not his rich buddies. He should be going to the areas that got hit by the weather and stop padding the pockets of him and his buddies. The oil wheelers and dealers.
Katrina just gave Big Oil Co's. A reason to do some more price gorging

An urban legend in europe is that in the USA a lot of people do not switch of the engine while for example shopping, so the aircondition is still running when they come back to the car.
Responce…..That is the most silly thing I have heard. NO ONE here in the USA leaves their car running when they go shopping. I have never seen someone go in a store, UNLESS its a convenient to pick up a soda or somehting, and leave their car running. Thats crazy!!!!
I am an American who has lived in Germany for 8 years during which time the Berlin wall came down. I have also lived in Asia two years.
I can say first hand that the Europeans who have made entries here are self promoting. They are no more environmental conscious than we are in the US. Yes, there are pockets of recycling just like there are in pockets here in the US. Tell me how environmental conscious Germans are with the speed on the Autobahn. If you look at the list of prices by Country you notice that the countries with the highest prices have a socialist public policy. Many of these same countries have a far higher income tax than the US and as well as a 17 % VAT. Europeans may not need a car because the government has built and subsidized the transportation system of busses, subways and trains. When we look at the area of Europe it is less than 1/4 of the area of the US. For example the old State of West Germany (pre-1990) had a population of 60 M while the State of Oregon is the State of the closest size had a population of less than 10 M. The population density is very high. They live close to where they work — that is those with jobs.
Are any of you aware that we now live in a global economy? The demand for Oil has grown in China by more than 100% over the last two years. India's demand has grown by more than 50 % over the same time while the US with a thriving economy has grown by less than 10%. If the US had a sound energy policy with drilling, refinery additions, and research into alternative fuels 20 years ago there would be a much larger supply and simple economics would dictate the price would be lower per barrel today. Also, the US could tell some middle East Kingdoms where to stick their oil pipe.
yeah realy im poor or just about poor these prices are killing me……if we all bought gas from one company wouldnt that force the other companys to lower thier prices? couse last time i looked it cost the same to refine the crude oil yet prices rise………thats a daymn shame..n guess who has stock in the major oil companies…thats right george w. bush and his daddy this is a travisty i bet the dumbazzes who voted for him are starting to wonder now. peaceeeeee!
if gas in other countries is as low as $0.12/gal and crude oil is $70/barrel…lets do the math here……why dont we just buy the already made GAS from these countries
wow, 6.48? no wonder many of them walk or ride bikes. i'm from saudi where it's just below a dollar, just as reported. many of the reasons why gas is so cheap in saudi is that we don't have strict refining laws, no taxes, no long distances of shipment, and we have no psychological impact from possible shortages.
i guess bill was doing his job when he was having a cigars with monica
Correct Me If I'm Wrong, But Here In America There Are 4 Million Flex Fuel Cars That Can Either Run On Ethanol, Gasoline or anymix of the two. Seeing How You Can Extract Ethanol From Sugar and Corn. Although A Gallon Of Ethanol Won't Get You As Far As A Gallon Of Gasoline. BUT, The Prices Of Ethanol Are 1/3rd The Price Of Unleaded… 2 Resources For The Source Of 1 Fuel. I Like those Odds.
Sadly some Americans do leave the car on while shopping. Not many, but some. For example, when they run into a WAWA to grab a bottle of soda real quick. They may leave it on then. I don't think Americans need to drive more. I being one of them, wish I could walk everywhere, or take the subway. However, I live just outside of Philadelphia, in lower Bucks County, and I have to drive to get places. From my house to school. From my house to work, and to the movies, and the malls. I wish I lived in a city. I can't wait until I move to Tokyo.

The most important factor for U.S to bring down oil prices is to build new refineries. They have about 180 of them as opposed to 360 back in 1980. Last oil refinery tht was built was in 1979. This crap about enviromentalists etc etc is bull…. I know and all u knw that if a govt needed to build new refineries (at LEAST ONE NEW ONE SINCE 1976) they WOULD. but… as someone stated above some poeple have their little stocks in the oil economy… Now why would they go lower them prices huh?
Yeah, yeah….Bush Eats puppies too. He also causes global warming. Single handedly caused WWI, and WWII,
And let's not forget the dinosaurs. We all know he caused them to become extinct. You must be really ignorant to think Bush controls gas prices. Look above ! America is amongst the lower gas wages. EXXON made 300% profit in the last 2 years.
Something has to be done about coroporate greed. Not our President. He loves America, and what it stands for. At least he's not a quitter, like most of the Americans who have turned their backs on him, because of hard times that are out of his control. Again He had a good deal of support for the war till things went badly. Then "americans" complain,and say get out and let the people of Iraq suffer.

I think people are concentrating too much on price rather than on efficiency.
So, yeah yeah, buy a car than runs on diesel because diesel is cheap (NOW) but once demand for it goes up, the price will also rise (as it has in the US) Same thing for ethanol.
Electric motors are more efficient than gas engines by over 40%. But gas has more energy per volume than batteries. So hydrids are a great mix. But not perfect.
I'm so sick of europeans trying to say they're morals are higher than ours. If they could afford a big car, they would buy one. Why aren't hybrid sales taking off in europe? Because they're buying diesel cars instead. I've lived in France, Germany and Finland.. I don't feel they are greener than Californians.
I am here in the U.S. so can you all in Ven. send me a couple thou. imp.gals.?
thats bullshit for the UK.
Just to let you know, it's actually not Netherlands but Turkey that has the highest gas prices in the world.
In Istanbul, the price of regular gas is 6.87 $/gallon, price of unleaded is 7.48$/gallon.
Hmmmm… George Bush love America? If he loved his country so much why is he not bothered with climate change/global warming etc (me thinking kyoto agreement), one simple answer: money, the more he can get the better, that's all that matters.
As for the transport in Europe being significantly better, I'd like someone to see the provision in this area, we get 2 bus's a week if we're lucky, the trains are crap. Unless you live in a city/big town you do need a car, in the UK at least.
I read some comments that Bush cannot do anything about high gasprices here om the US?
Nonsens, he needs to stop playing chicken,stand up and call all the oilexecutives in his oval office and tell them: You High oil prices hurts AMericans. You lower your profits bring the price down or otherwise I am going to make your lifes miserable.
That's it!!!
Wake Up!
As mentioned above, Bush does have ties with the oil companies, as well as all corporate and non-corporate businesses in the U.S.. — IT'S CALLED THE 'U.S. GOVERNMENT' –
3 word's: Money, Power & Greed!!
If it did'nt benefit our leaders they would'nt take part in it. Nor would they allow anyone else to benefit. This has always been the case since day one. The whole point of Government is wraped up in those three word's. This goes for all leaders world wide.
Our Global future will consist of knowledge and information. Both these thing's will be worth more than any amount of Money. And Power comes with them.
If we as a world all knew the truth we would'nt stand for this "Game" our leaders are playing.
Please, for the sake of your future, get informed of the real truth.
here's a start: infowars.com
God bless you all.
does anybody else find it too much of a coincidence that the middle east, and venezuela has the lowest prices. also, what's with the bush and the forrest thing.
I am commenting on the fact that some of what you said on your website is not true. But yes gas prices have gone up alot over the past few month. Chances are they'll keep going up the United Sates until we leave Iraq and because allies with them. Becase we all know the only reason why Bush is still in Iraq is for the oil. Becasue thats what our society is built off of greed and the want for complete controle over other countries natural resources.
I live in the U.S….I own 3 vehicles.. 2 are 4 wheel drive..my car is a mitsubishi evolution super car…i pay a lot for gas because i drive a lot…America is a car-culture…we're in Iraq because there are over 70 untapped oil fields there..perhaps more oil than saudi arabia..we don't want china to get their mitts on it…so we created a war…does the avg american care?..no…as long as we get to ride around and look COOL..lol
In the US unless it has changed,The public utility companies are intitled by law to 12% profit. They can't make over that but they know they will make that much.
Why is an oil company not concidered a public utility. They are also selling power products to the public.
We all know the average american is lazy and would rather pay the price than do or try to do anything about prices of gasoline.
Maybe if everyone would cut down on all the unecessary driving then maybe prices will lower.
Not only would this cause the oil companies to feel the impact but it would cause businesses to drop in sales and all and all things may be accomplished for the better than to continue getting worse.
Another thing I do believe would make these prices to come down would be to start the ODD/EVEN setup we had in the 70′s.
This is something everyone would be involved in and it would'nt be overlooked or un-noticed as the boycott on not buying gas on May 15th was .
I was'nt aware of this until now May 15th but it was a good idea and I hope everyone will follow along with this because we have to let not only the political world see that we mean business but also the oil tycoons that are padding their pockets getting richer on we the people that have got them where they're at
And what did May 15th do for us… Nothing. No one in the US cared. I was shocked to see all the people who just continued to pump gas on the day we were supposed to "show the world we mean business". And gas prices since then continued to rise. There are hundreds of solutions for high gas prices, but the only way for something to work is to stop arguing about it, unite, and do something about it. Sadly, this will never happen.
One thing that most people do not realize is that the US does not get much of its oil from the Middle East. Contrary to popular belief the US gets most of its (foreign) oil from Canada and Mexico. Less than 15% comes from places like Saudi Arabia or Kuwait. Most oil exported from Middle Eastern countries stays in the Eastern Hemisphere. All the talk about the US invading Iraq to get cheap oil is a load of crap, so all the Evil America – No Blood for oil crowd should just stfu.
The US is the third largest oil producer in the world, and produces 85% of it own energy overall. If pressed, the US can supply 100% of its own energy, its just cheaper to import some of it. None of the above is true for the EU. Hence 400% tax on gasoline in European countries, and European mass propaganda about man's role in the end of the current ice age: its mainly a security issue for the EU, nothing more or less. The Green politics stuff is just a way to motivate the public to support a security issue. Beyond that, how taxing anything at 400% is "moral", never mind a commodity of daily life, escapes me. Anybody who thinks taxes are somehow fixed by the government services provided is nuts. There is no limit to public spending, governments the world over take as much as they can get away with and spend it, regardless of the services they provide. Most people (and governments) have likely noticed its very easy to spend money without seeing the results, and gets easier as your income rises.
Clean air? Anybody who has spent time walking in a European city recently could probably understand my dislike of the diesels that are sold in Europe because of high taxes. If you're a pedestrian, or motorcyclist, the soot goes right down your lungs. As much as I love some European cities (and I do) when it comes to public health give me Los Angeles freeways any day! I have lived in both Europe and the US by the way, both for extended periods.
Note that only Saudi Arabia and Russia are bigger producers of oil than the US.
"(The US) produces 85% of it own energy overall.
I was recently in the UK and the article says that in the UK the price of gas is $5.79 a gallon.
Which I don't really understand and if anyone can explain the following to me, please do.
Gas in the UK is 97p per litre ($1.91)
1 US Gallon = 3.785 Litres
97p X 3.785 litres = £3.67 per US Gallon
£1 = $1.97 !!!
$1.97 x 3.67 = $7.23
So a gallon of gas in the UK is $7.23, not $5.79 as CNN think.
Even assuming a small change in $ to £ I don't really think it would change that much.
What am I missing? How did CNN work out their prices?
Gas could easily be cheaper in the U.S. if some politicians, especially the liberal ones, would get a grip and simply dig for oil in northern Alaska and the Gulf of Mexico. We're spending too much time worrying about producing ethanol as an alternative fuel source when all that is doing is sky-rocketing food prices, especially milk and corn, it won't help with our dependence on foreign oil. Also, lower gas prices help the economy drastically. It's common sence. The lower gas prices are, the more vacations people go on and the more money they spend. It's not hard to comprehend.
This info doesn't help at all considering it's from 2005. Wake up and update.
We're all missing the forest for the trees, the root of the problem is much more fundamental. Make your cities LIVABLE, and all of a sudden people will WANT to live there. Urban sprawl is the biggest contributor to fuel consumption. Make the cities safe (I've felt safer in some Moslem countries than in many American ones).
Associated with this is eliminating the gap between the rich and poor. A much more stable and enjoyable society will result, and then we can live in the cities again.
Quit whining what is will be in order to keep from fighting this war over here we
had to go.now why we didn't go in and take over in the first place is be on me.Oil is just a good by product of this war.
Life is still good here.
To all who want and need to save gas or diesel fuel in their cars, with increase in engine power and while using, protect the injectors of their vehicles, lower maintenance cost, and importantly, willing to help the environment by reduction of pollutants/emission from their vehicles, I have something for you. A fuel saver that really works, not yet commercialized, but it already exist. It saves between 15% up to 35% on gasoline and diesel. If the engine is old and having plenty of blowby, the fuel saver will save upto 48%. I just installed several units in different vehicles, diesel and gasoline, and the owners were very happy of the results. It is costly @ 300.00US$, but it is worth. And by the way, soon we mass produce it, it will become cheaper, then the whole world will be able to put it every vehicles in the street.

You are full of sh1t. Are you sure you weren't in one of the developing eastern European cities?
I've lived in both eastern and western Europe and am there every year or so and your claim about soot being prevalent is total bullsh1t. Yes, once in a while some truck or car over accelerates or has their fuel set too rich and will cause a bit of smoke but it is rare.
Los Angeles healthier than European cities? Are you sure you it wasn't all that crack you smoked in Amsterdam???

The CNN Report was posted in March 2005 – Your post was May 2007 – More than 2 years later. Since you are so good at it, do the math….
all of a sudden theres a rise in gas prices just a year ago prices where this high then dropped whats the deal here, they have stocks and supply of it I would know I have seen the back up supply, 3.50 for gas is insane, most of Europe is so expensive but look at it like this they focus around mass trasportation trains and buses in the cities and what not America could never to that to wide spread
Please whatever you do, do not fall for the fuel saver scam posted above. This device claims to inject small particles of platinum into your fuel mixture via a pvc hose or vaccum line and causes less fuel waste. I personally bought one for a toyota camry and a pickup. There was no improvement in fuel mileage of either and when I called the company back to get my money refunded, the seller of the product told me my vehicles must be old pieces of sh-t. Every time I called back the same man answered. I believe this was a single man company scam. Don't be fooled…
Yes, gas prices are high in Europe, they make way more money than an average person does here w/ job security and very low wages for an average person here in the US., Of couse we're going to take a hit because Americans work hard adn drive far to get there. And not to mention we have too many people in this country who will do work cheaper, so as a result we're stuck w/ low wage and high gas that's why all the complaining about high gas prices. It shouldn't be regulated. We should just have more supply and yes we do have it!!!
-This is for the guy that said that americans don't leave their engines running when they go shopping because of the A/C…
-He said is a silly concept.
-C'mon man!!!!!!!

Rockefeller's Standard Oil company.[2] Formed on November 30, 1999, by the merger of Exxon and Mobil, ExxonMobil is the world's largest company by revenue, at $404.5 billion for the fiscal year of 2007. It is also the largest publicly held corporation by market capitalization, at $481.10 billion on February 27, 2008.[3]. It is the largest of the six oil supermajors with daily production of 4.18m boe (barrels of oil equivalent) in 2007 [10]. ExxonMobil is still eclipsed by several of the largest state petroleum producers. The company has been the subject of criticism for its business practices and environmental record.
Makes me sick to see what this country has become. No one in America sticks together any more everyone is out for the self. The rich just keep on getting richer.Who pays for it we do. What Americans need to do is stop all the nonsence and not pay for all this crap that comes in here from other countries.All they do is send our jobs to other countries and the shirt comes back here and we buy it up. Price of gas is nuts I dont buy my gas at Exxon or Mobil

Coming from various discussions I have had in the GIS and ESRI Users groups in LinkedIn, I decided I should write a log entry describing the three technologies that people discuss frequently, without differentiation between them: the geoweb, web mapping and web GIS. While there are multiple definitions of the three, mine defines the three based on their functionality, differentiating them and drawing clear distinctions.
In essense, the geoweb consists of locationally aware web technologies usually manifested on the world wide web. Web mapping then refers to those online applications that permit users to view or create maps on a web platform, usually with limited or no GIS analysis. Web GIS then refers to Geographic Information Systems that use web technologies as a method of communication between the elements of a GIS.
GIS has been defined numerous times by several scholars and organizations. ESRI, the world's largest producer of GIS Software defined GIS through the lens of data, map view and model view (source). The United States Geological Survey (USGS) defines GIS as a system capable of capturing, storing, analyzing and displaying geographically referenced information (source). Nicholas Chrisman, a leading scholar in GIS, in his book Exploring Geographic Information Systems, defined GIS as "the organized activity by which people measure aspects of geographic phenomena and processes; represent these measurements, usually in the form of a computer database, to emphasize spatial themes, entities and relationships; operate upon these representations to produce more measurements and to discover new relationships by integrating disparate sources; and transform these representations to conform to other frameworks of entities and relationships. These activities reflect the larger context (institutions and cultures) in which these people carry out their work. In turn, the GIS may influence these structures." (source) As can be seen by all the definitions, a Geographic Information System has multiple components, including human actors, that work together for a common purpose. These definitions then provide us a first step into clarifying what is the difference between a web GIS and web mapping.
If any of the above definitions are to be considered valid, then mapping is a single component in what is termed GIS, the visualization aspect. Therefore one can define web mapping applications as applications that enable the visualization of geographically referenced data through a web interface available online. While most web mapping applications today allow users to perform some spatial analysis (short path finding algorithms), this does not constitute a GIS application in my mind, as other, simple sorts of analysis are not permitted (imagine spatial queries, buffer analysis, etc).
As web mapping has been clarified, we can now explain what the geoweb is. First of all, the geoweb is considered as a collection of web applications and/or services that are geographically aware. What that means in other words is that applications that somehow are aware of geographic locations, either through geo-ip location or supplemental information as tags or EXIF data in photographs. The uses are multiple, like browsing Flickr photos by location information, load-balancing servers (redirect traffic to the nearest available server to answer requests, etc). The geoweb is therefore an amalgamation of location-aware services available to the public that provide location-based decisions to be made.
The last definition, web GIS, is all that remains. Using any definition of GIS provided above, one will notice there are multiple components. The interaction between the components is usually very direct in desktop GIS. Data, maps and analysis happen on the same computer, so communication is done internally. Enterprise GIS often allows the user to communicate with data remotely, and sometimes even analysis is done remotely. Web GIS enables the communication of all components to happen through the web, enabling diverse data, analysis algorithms, users and visualization techniques that may be hosted at any location on the web.
Of course, the above definitions are the way I understand the world of GIS and location-aware applications. If you have any suggestions or corrections to make on the above, feel free to leave me comments or email me directly.

What tamplate do you use in your blog? Very interesting articles
[...] Las especificaciones de este standard fueron publicada por primera vez en 1999 por el Consorcio Geoespacial Abierto (OGC) , y desde entonces se usa casi en toda Europa y los Estados Unidos. WMS también constituyen la base de lo que que se conoce hoy dia como WebGIS. [...]
This is a great post and actually makes the distinction much clearer than I've seen elsewhere. I'm in complete agreement with your definitions. Whenever the issue of definitions comes up, though, I'm always curious if it's time to rethink them. I'm going to propose a devil's advocate view by distinguishing between GISystems and GIScience. The shift from Geographic Information *Systems* to GI*Science* prompted by Goodchild et al encourages us to think about the "organized activity" part of Chrisman's definition, and specifically, about how our activities constitute a production of knowledge *of* geographic information. So, everyday citizens, when uploading geotagged photos to Flickr, are also involved in a production of knowledge of GI. If this is the case, that both GIScientists and everyday citizens are interested in the production of knowledge of geographic information, can't it be argued that the geoweb actually presents an interesting dimension of GIScience – arguably, that the geoweb could also fall in the GIScience bubble?
One reason I have for arguing this is because it's tempting to think of ourselves as the producers of knowledge, when really the *source* of knowledge is actually the people uploading the pics, videos, etc….. (ryan's one of those scary liberal/egalitarian academics)
Just curious about your thoughts on this.
I know it's easy to poke holes in this argument (I myself see at least 3 faulty premises). It's mostly intended as food-for-thought.

DENVER (AP) Dignitaries from Canada and Mexico are touring a Denver marijuana dispensary today. Colorado is preparing to play host for 1,000 drug policy experts and legalization backers at the International Drug Policy Reform Conference.
Marijuana legalization will be a major topic at the conference. Colorado and Washington state have authorized pot possession for all adults over 21, with retail sales beginning next year.
And for the first time ever, Americans seem to be in favor of legalizing marijuana. A recent gallup poll shows 58% favor legalization. That's 10-percentage-points more than last November. 39% are still opposed.
The pro-marijuana momentum is attributed to public referendums legalizing marijuana in Colorado and Washington state.
America's changing marijuana policy is playing out in other nations, too. Uruguay is finalizing plans to become the first country to authorize and oversee marijuana production and sales.

PSU defending early schedule
College Football Videos
Penn State has taken heat for its soft 2008 nonconference schedule, not all of it warranted.
It's true that scheduling Division I-AA Coastal Carolina -- the 66-10 opening-day victim -- and Temple -- the 1-2 Mid-American Conference team that comes to Beaver Stadium for a noon game Saturday -- falls into the category of virtually guaranteeing wins.
It's also true that while Penn State (3-0) made short work of Oregon State, 45-14, and Syracuse, 55-13, those games were more ambitious opponents at the times the deals were made.
Joe Paterno seemed pleased when he was reminded, after the Syracuse game, that when the two schools agreed on a two-game series, which was announced June 18, 2002, Syracuse was a consistent winner.
"That's right," Paterno said.
Syracuse was 10-3 overall, 6-1 in the Big East in 2001, beating Kansas State, 26-3, in the Insight.com Bowl. The Orange were on a run of 15 consecutive winning seasons.
From that time in the program, to now, has been a dramatic waterfall. But Penn State could be forgiven for not anticipating that.
Likewise, when Oregon State was added to the Penn State schedule in December 2007, the Beavers were in the midst of 9-4 season and No. 25 finish in the final AP poll. A season earlier, Oregon State was 10-4 and finished No. 21.
"Oregon State will provide another challenging opponent during our nonconference schedule," Penn State athletic director Tim Curley said at the time
Ironically, Oregon State was a late substitution for Arkansas State, which stunned Texas A&M, 18-14, in its 2008 season opener. Arkansas State also blew away Texas Southern, 83-10 in Week 2, and lost a close decision, 27-24, to Southern Mississippi in its most recent game.
Temple's 1-2 record will be characterized as deceiving by Penn State and to some extent it is. The Owls beat Army, 35-7, in their opener, then lost, 12-9, in overtime to UConn, and 30-28 to Buffalo on a desperation pass that went for a touchdown last week.
"They'll be tough," Paterno said. "They've got almost everybody back from last year, plus that quarterback (Adam DiMichele of Sto-Rox) is a good player."
Syracuse comes to Penn State next year in the final installment of a home-and-home deal. Temple plays twice at Beaver Stadium for every home game it gets with the Lions. That series will extend through 2012 with Penn State playing at Temple in 2011.
Paterno explained again last week Penn State's need for such two-for-one deals.
"We need seven home games (for financial reasons) and it's tough to do if you've got to play home and home with everybody," he said.
Even with this weak front part of the schedule, Penn State's overall schedule is rated 45th toughest nationally, based on cumulative records of the opposition when only I-A teams are considered, and No. 52 when I-A and I-AA teams are included.
East Carolina, which began the season unranked, has slotted in ahead of No. 16 Penn State in this week's AP rankings as a reward for a tougher schedule to date. The Pirates upset No. 17 Virginia Tech, 27-22, in Week 1, and upended then No. 8 West Virginia, 24-3, in their second game. East Carolina won at Tulane, 28-24, in its third game.
But when the entire schedule is weighed, the East Carolina schedule ranks dead last in strength based on opponents' cumulative record at No. 119 when only I-A is considered, and 173rd when I-A and I-AA are included.Additional Information:

A Guide to Eating and Drinking in New Delhi
- New Delhi Information
- Eating & drinking in New Delhi
- Night life in New Delhi
- Things to do in New Delhi
- Where to stay in New Delhi
- New Delhi street map
In many ways, eating out in New Delhi is precisely the 'typical experience' backpackers in India should be looking for. While there are plenty of upmarket restaurants, the emphasis is rather more on noisy, chaotic, delicious and (best of all) cheap street food.
Delhi is a huge city where finding something to eat can seem a little daunting, so it's a good idea to break it down into a series of bite-sized(!) chunks. The best place to start is probably over to the north of the city in the Main Bazaar of Paharganj, before moving into neighboring Ram Nagar.
From 'parantha' and 'golgappas' to 'samosas' and 'jalebi', the range of dishes on offer will satisfy even the most daring of diners. Here, too, amidst the shoving crowds and the noise of the rickshaws, you can settle down over a cup of 'chai' (spiced Indian tea) and watch the crowds.
A little to the east of the center, the Bengali Market is one of the best places to try the local take on 'chaat'. Essentially a variety of light dishes (generally wrapped up in pastry), 'chaat' is a quintessential dining experience, as well as a great vegetarian option in Delhi.
Although Old Delhi (to the north) is the better - and more authentic - option for street food, it's perhaps best tried only by those travelers with truly iron stomachs! Snaking in every direction from its central artery, Chandni Chowk is a heaving mass of cheap stalls perfect for the adventurous.
For something a little more refined, Connaught Place, at the heart of the new town, is packed with some of the smartest places to eat in New Delhi. Here, the 'dhabas' (which stand alongside a wide range of Western-style fast-food joints) offer spectacular views across the city.
After a while, though, most backpackers will almost certainly find themselves longing for the din and squalor of the streets. That, after all, is why they've come to New Delhi: for its unique atmosphere and the sense of unending spectacle that comes along with it.

What's shameful is the deficit under Obama
I am not a gun owner or a National Rifle Association member, but the focus by President Barack Obama and Congress on wanting additional gun laws and adding background checks has been difficult to understand and a waste of time. We already have gun laws on the books, and more laws will not stop mass shootings. We have more pressing issues, such as the federal debt that has been amassed under this president.
The president said it was shameful not passing the gun law he wanted. No, Mr. President, the deficit and railroading Obamacare down our throats is shameful.
Richard Horswell
You're being cheated by those statistics
A March 28 guest column lament that the underfunding of community enhancements, libraries, parks, museums, etc., is a disservice to the workers who built them. Nonworkers now receive this funding.
The U.S. Department of Agriculture reports that 47.8 million people received Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program benefits (food stamps) in December 2012. There are no bread lines in America.
There are, however, statistical liars in Washington. The Bureau of Labor Statistics dropped February's unemployment to 7.7 percent. Sounds good, but Market Watch reported that 130,000 workers were dropped from unemployment because they gave up looking. So although they have no job, they're no longer "unemployed.". The official U6 unemployment measure, which includes some discouraged workers, is now 14.3 percent. Statistician John Williams counts all workers, claiming true unemployment is 23 percent, or three times the published lie.
Inflation is another cooked book, because the truth would force government to raise Social Security payments, T-bond interest payments, Medicare, etc.; the rigged official Consumer Inflation Index is 1.6 percent. John Williams at Shadow Government Statistics declares it's 9.2 percent measured by official U.S. government 1990 methodology. You're being cheated.
A problem caused by debt can't be cured by more debt. Our criminal Fed is counterfeiting 85 billion debt dollars every month from thin air, stealing purchasing power from your money, wages and pensions. They are even promoting another shaky housing bubble, which will bankrupt more people.
Sorry, but you're standard of living will decline as the quantity of nonworkers increases by at least 50 percent over the next three to four years, while you will subject to increased taxation, regulation, downward equalization and observation.

The Funniest Twitter Reviews of This Week's Major Album Releases
Flowery, contemplative album reviews are nice, but when it comes to finding hilarious music criticism on the go, nothing tops Twitter. After all, when people only have 140 characters to spend, they tend to get right to the point. So we browsed through endless feeds to see what people are saying about the albums that dropped this week. Here's what the Twitterverse had to say about Snoop Lion, Will.i.am, Phoenix and more:
Jena Ardell
Will.i.am ahead of Cudi?! What is going on in the world?! That is definitely more messed up than domestic terrorism; or the natural gas industry contaminating our water supply; or Operation Enduring Freedom and Operation Iraqi Freedom combined! You are what is wrong with the world, Will.i.am fans.
Will.i.am's album is ahead of cudi's on itunes... What a truly messed up world we live in twitter.com/roseotm/status...— thecudikid (@roseotm) April 24, 2013
Another brilliantly snarky observation, Jenny. We predict SNL will want to hire you as a writer for their Weekend Update segment. Replacing writers with twitter-famous writers is so 2013.
Snoop Dogg changed his name to Snoop Lion and says he's Bob Marley reincarnated, proving you can actually overdose on marijuana.— Jenny Johnson (@JennyJohnsonHi5) July 31, 2012
BREAKING: Snoop blabbed about Miley Cyrus and Liam Hemsworth's alleged breakup. Now the media is more focused on the breakup than Snoop's new album. That sucks.
We couldn't pass up this tweet by someone calling herself "Bow Down To Teesus". According to her, we should all steal the album. Tisk tisk, y'all. We think Teesus should review every album. Her rant about K. Michelle's album made us smile:
Y'all really need to cop Fantasia's "Side Effects Of You". GREAT ALBUM!— Bow Down To Teesus (@HausOfTee) April 24, 2013

Comments about Good Ideas Complete Eco Package:
Purchased this package deal because of all you got for the price...mostly just wanted the composter but I like a bargain. I already have a kitchen compost bucket but it's been nice to have a second one to switch out with. The bamboo is nice and comes with a plastic liner bucket to keep the bamboo clean. The rain barrel is nice and well made but I didn't want to cut into my down drain to accommodate it so it just sits on the patio to fill. The composter is nice and well made but when it gets full it is hard to turn. I've had it a year now and finally got my first batch of compost a couple months ago but that could be due to the fact that I kept adding to it and the first few months it was located in a partial shade area, though I previously had a composter with an open bottom and everything did tend to break down quicker in that one. My husband wanted a rolling composter and after seeing what was available within our budget this one seemed the most durable and easy to assemble (take out of box, position on roller). Overall, pleased with this purchase though I debate whether it's actually 52 gallons as it isn't much bigger than my 32 gallon garbage can.

Comments about Good Ideas Complete Eco Package:
I'm very plased so far with this set, except for the shipping on the bamboo pail. The pail arrived missing the lid and with one side of the handle detached. Otherwise, the pail seems quite nice. HayNeedle Customer Service offered a refund for the pail though, so no complaints there. Had the pail been complete, I'm sure it would be a very nice pail.
Otherwise, The rest of the set seems like good sturdy equipment! The compost tumbler is simple and feels heavy duty. it rotates easily on 4 rollers and is light enough to move around easily when empty.
The rain barrel feels like good thick material so I'm sure it will hold up for a long time. I am looking forward to getting this system all hooked up so I can reayl see how great a barrel it is!.
All in all? A great buy for the price.

Comments about Good Ideas Complete Eco Package:
I am a beginning gardener and bought this package based on the price and other reviews. I researched everywhere to find a better price and had no luck finding a comparable deal. I loved the fact that these products needed minimal assembly ( I only had to attach the brass fitting to the barrel). The barrel and composter were light weight and easy to handle. In using the rain barrel, I wish the product description would include a suggestion to also buy a pump for best results. Due to my own inexperience, I did not anticipate this need. The composter is better than I had expected. I can roll it to my yard debris pile, fill it up, then roll it back to the stand. I would like to say that the stand tends to collect rain water at the bottom, but it is easily removed, so not really a big deal. Overall, I love these products and would recommend these to any small gardener. It's a quality product that I plan on using for many years. You can't beat this deal! You will love them.

I have been gardening for years but have never had the compost container. I am looking forward to this year's harvest! My compost has been started and my rain barrel in place (just waiting for the next rain). We have been in drought conditions with water restrictions for many years...this has been a purchase I should have made long ago. I believe that aside from building it myself, this price is about as good as it gets for this complete package!
I gave 5 stars because of the communication and ease of setting up.

Before I leave for Spain next week I though that I would post my pics for this month.A lot of these were taken on the way to or from work, on my visits to see my students – I hope that you enjoy them!
Emergency Vehicle
This along with a couple of police cars was outside Birmingham New Street railway station last week when Ellie and I were travelling back.
Black and White Portrait
Taken in the window of the place where I had my photos developed, what a cute baby!
Spotted this fabric at the last Quilt Day that fitted this category very well.
Taken outside Accrington railway station one sunny day (I do spend a lot of my life at railway stations!)
This pic was taken that same day – like the contrast between the in and out of focus flowers.
Sign of the Zodiac
I was trying to be bit creative with this – here is the Bull pub in Nelson, Lancashire.
So many pics to choose from for this – I eventually went with one taken last weekend at the Tudor House where Ellen works, Greyfriars in Worcester, this is part of the garden.
Think Vintage
Was not sure what to snap for this then saw this very cute dress in a shop window, I love retro fashions!
Interesting Local Building
This is a very significant building to Huddersfield and to me. It is the oldest building on the University campus where I work – dating from the late 1800s. It is called the Ramsden Building and is where I studied as an undergraduate 28 years ago.
Back to the railway station again for this – a rainy day in Yorkshire ( as opposed to a rainy night in Georgia!).
Red Door
The thing I really like about the Scavenger Hunt is the way it makes you really look at things around you. I was thinking 'where can I get a pic of a red door' – well turns out next door neighbour but one has a red front door and here it is!
Cartoon Character
I am a huge Disney fan – the kids and I have been to Disneyland 5 times (4 trips to Euro Disney and 1 trip to Florida and loved every visit) – this is one of my souvenir soaps with the original cartoon character – the mouse that started it all – Mickey (who I have met on several occasions!)
Hope that you have had a good week – if you want to look at all of the other Scavenger pics then go to Kathy's blog.
See you all when I return!
Thanks for visiting.
By that I mean the large amount of fabric I am about to show you which was purchased at the Malvern Quilt Festival is destined to be used for lots of different gifts and sales items for my Xmas craft fairs so I do not in any way consider that I spent too much money, bought too much fabric or overindulged at all :-) I actually think I was very restrained as there was so much more I could have bought had I gone wild and just bought fabric with gay abandon rather than for the specific purposes I had on my list. In fact there was virtually no impulse buying at all apart from some very good bargains.
I am planning to make quilts as presents for the youngest family members this summer, play/cuddle quilts are what I had in mind made with two really lovely ranges from Makower. Firstly the very cute farm animals prints.
Then the Makower pirate range – and I found some fab pirate and sea creature buttons to go on the quilt as well!
Both of these fabric sets were on my shopping list and we had already been round all the traders once without seeing them as I was looking for bolts of the fabric when we went round again and found them at the very helpful Cookes Quilting Supplies stall. I have looked on their website before but wanted to actually see the fabric and they were very good at searching out missing coordinating fabrics for me.
I also got some really nice new Xmas patterns for making ornies – look at all these lovelies – all from Goose Chase Quilting who I had not come across before.
Along with some very cute Xmas buttons – there are little cookie cutters and gingerbread men in these packs! All these and previous pirate buttons are from Out of Africa suppliers.
Ellie also bought some lovely things – some flannel to make a lap quilt and jelly roll to make a duvet cover so she is going to have a busy summer sewing!
As well as the planned stuff there were a couple of impulse bargains –
These cute dinosaur labels £1 for 10 which I thought would make a lovely charity quilt for the hospice so I bought 3 packs.
And a lovely Robert Kaufman fat quarter – I think this is called Holiday Flourish with some more of the fabric I have just used up in my throw.
I finished the border on the throw last weekend and made the spare panel and another set I cut out into cushions covers, you can see them in the pictures below – now I have the batting I can put these together and I have also bought a darning foot for my machine so I will be trying out some free motion quilting on these!
I took lots of pics of the wonderful quilts at the show so will have to sort out some of my favourite to post here later. I thought I would just leave you with a few shots of Malvern railway station – again like Hebden Bridge last week a lovely old station with some fantastic ironwork.
I will try to post again mid-week as we will be away all next weekend – we have a Bank Holiday re-enactment show at Ashby de La Zouche Castle in Leicestershire so if you are in the area on Sunday or Monday do come along, it would be lovely to see you.
I hope you all have a lovely week ahead and thanks as always for visiting.
Hope everyone has had a nice week. I have been getting on well with my Xmas ornie targets for this year – I am aiming to make one new ornie for me a month as well as the usual present ornies and stock for at least one Xmas craft fair. So I will be starting that stock as soon as term finishes at the end of May and I have a bit more time.
So far for me I have finished three JBW stockings (plus a blue one to hang on the conservatory door) and this week completed the JBW Xmas pudding ornie and another one which is taken from a bigger design using blackwork of ivy leaves from one of my old New Stitches magazines. I have made the ivy leaf ornie before for my Project Nepal fundraising but want to re-make a lot of past ornies just for me and this was my demo piece at last week's WI craft bee. They are both backed with some nice holly fabric from my stash and the pudding one has a great stocking ribbon that I got at the Harrogate show last year.
I am now working on a JBW tree ornie for me. I have put together all of the blocks for my stained glass window Xmas fabric throw with the sashing and this afternoon will do the border which is pieced from all the Xmas fabric used and the backing. Hopefully that will be finished this afternoon as I have been very good and got up early to do the housework and spring clean the cellar!
I am very pleased with the way that it has turned out – I did have a bit of a challenge with the outer sashing as I discovered that the bottom row of blocks were quite a bit smaller than the top row (my inaccurate cutting!) so I had to stretch that row to make it fit but it turned out ok. With the left over block I am going to make a cushion in the same style and have cut out single pieces for a matching cushion. I have also got lots of odd rectangles from cutting the border so thought I would make a small runner for the coffee table so that my room can be very co-ordinated this Xmas.
We had a bit of a show and tell of all the different blocks on Monday at Quilt Group. This is a pic of Davina's blocks that I took at the workshop which just shows how different the choice of fabric and sashing colour can make the quilt look.
If you go and visit Davina's blog you can see the pic she took of the original stained glass pattern with solids and black sashing.
I have had a very nice week, very busy at work but I have had a few trips out to visit my students which is always lovely. On Monday I went 'over the border' to Nelson in Lancashire. It was a lovely train journey through very beautiful countryside, this is a very historic area full of beautiful hills and moors and lots of industrial heritage – mainly dating from the Victorian era when all the mills were built. Here are a few pics to share with you – the first two are taken at Hebden Bridge station, then there is a view of the hills from the train and the flower was near the college I was visiting.
I hope you have all a nice week ahead. I am very much looking forward to next week as I am going down to visit Ellie in Worcester and we are going to the Malvern Quilt Show ! There may well be some additions to the stash (it would be a shame if there weren't!) and then I am helping Ellie bring all her stuff back up as she is coming here for the summer this year which is lovely as we can do lots of crafting together.
Thanks for visiting.
Hello again
Hope you have been having a very nice week. I have – filled with lots of lovely crafting and fun with other people while doing it. I only started crafting socially (as in joining groups) about 4 years ago when I joined the Embroiderers' Guild but now the kids have grown up and I have a lot more free time for me it forms a large part of my social life and I love it! It is so nice seeing what other people are working on and getting advice when you get stuck and having a good laugh (and usually some cake!) while you are at it. This week was a very nice one as I went to two knitting groups, did one session at WI and spent all day yesterday at a Quilt Workshop run by Christine from my quilt group.
First of all though my Spring Exchange for the Seasonal Exchange blog has arrived in the USA so I can show you pics of that.When I was given my partner Lisa's name I went to look on her blog to see what sort of things she liked making and I saw that she had made this as an exchange piece for her to send off and she mentioned that she liked it so much that she would want to make one for herself in the future so I thought this would be perfect and luckily she is pleased with it.
Knitting progress with the pink baby cardi is slow but steady – not helped by the fact that I keep forgetting to do eyelet rows while I am decreasing so I have had to take back quite a few rows!
I have also almost finished my latest Xmas ornie and made a start on another this week as a demo piece for my WI meeting. I have recently joined my local branch of the Women's Institute which meets monthly with a variety of activities on the programme. This month it was a Craft Bee and I was asked if I would like to demo something so I chose blackwork which turned out to be good choice as no-one had heard of if. There were quite a few cross stitchers who came to my table but some people who had never tried crafts before so we had a fun evening. The pics below show my demo table and a couple of the pieces that beginners did. I used patterns from the Blackwork Archives for the beginners as there are some very good simple designs there that you can download.
The quilt workshop I went to was based on a design called Stained Glass Windows. I forgot to get a picture of the original quilt that Christine had made as a demo but it was made from bold plain colours with black sashing to give the effect of stained glass. We had been asked to bring any fabric from our stash and as I have rather a lot of Xmas fabric (ahem!) rather than buying anything new I decided I would use the workshop to make an Xmas version of the sofa throw WIP.
The quilt design seemed quite complex to start off with (especially for me as I am a little spatially challenged!) as you layer seven 10 inch squares of fabric and cut them all at once into seven different sized rectangles, then you lay them out so that each block has one of each of the seven colours.
You can make any size of quilt by cutting extra sets of seven fabrics. I will probably only use 6 of my 7 blocks for the throw – I may cut out pieces for another block to make 8 blocks once I see how big the 6 are (am hoping to get some more quilting done this afternoon in between hedge cutting and other domestic duties!) Here are the three I got finished yesterday, I decided to use green sashing rather than black as I thought it looked more festive.
I am very pleased with them as it is the first time I have done a sashed block and it wasn't as hard as I thought. I had lots of help from the others and it was very nice to see all the different colour combinations that people chose and how they turned out.
In cake news this week I have been experimenting with my recipe and have made a different flavour – vanilla with a hint of ginger (Jake approves!) – here are the strawberry and chocolate star topped versions I made for quilt workshop.
Lastly I will leave you with some pics of my neighbours' very cute cat, Henry, who was climbing in the clematis this week and very kindly posed for me. We don't have any pets any more – all having died of old age – but Henry comes round a lot and is very friendly.
I just love that last pic – so cute!
Well I hope that you have a lovely week ahead – I am going to be super busy as I am out every night, all social and crafting which is lovely. Thanks as always for visiting and for all the lovely comments! I especially welcome all those new people who have visited through the photo scavenger hunt
Once again I had great fun with these – trying to interpret some of them in different ways. Most of them were taken on my recent trip to Spain. Hope you like them!
A church
This pic was taken from the boat when we went on our trip to the island of Tabarca and shows the old church which is being restored. I love the contrast of colours between the blue sea and the stones of the buildings.
A cross
Again from Tabarca, this is taken outside the church and is the cross from the top of an old well. I really like this pic – think it is one for printing off and framing.
A sculpture
I did see lots of nice sculptures in Spain as they love public art but then came across this on the beach so thought it was a good one for this category.
A set of keys
I wanted something interesting for this as all my personal keys are very boring them I came across this advert for a cross stitch picture which I think is wonderful so I am using this. The kit is called Keys to the Kingdom from Rosewood Manor Designs and I am using this pic from their website as I have not got around to ordering this yet. I am going to stitch bits of it as greetings cards – I thought they would be lovely for 18th and 21st cards.
An interesting shop name
Not only an interesting shop name but a very lovely shop. This is my LYS in Huddersfield where I go as much as I can for Knit and Natter!
April showers
Back to Tabarca for this one which is interpreted a bit differently. Most of the beaches in Spain have showers where you can rinse yourself off after your stay. Some are just for feet but this is a full size one. So here you have a pic of a shower taken in April!
I have posted pics of breakfast before on my blog and I now I get to do it again without seeming strange. This is my all time fave brekkie which I have for special occasions – scrambled eggs with smoked salmon and bagel – yum yum! I like the way my chilli sauce has formed a heart shape – breakfast with love!
Jake found these in a supermarket in Spain – we were there just before Easter so I guess it must be a Spanish tradition. I was going to use them for scrambled eggs then I thought ' I wonder what huevos cocidas actually means? ', looking at the label – it means boiled eggs so we had them for picnics instead!
Something to do with Shakespeare
This pic was actually taken in March as we went to Stratford for Ellie's birthday but I thought the fact that we had actually been to Shakespeare's birthplace was too good to miss. No pics allowed inside so here is a shot of the house.
Something to do with St George's Day
Again a great one for me as we did a three-day show at Bolsover to celebrate this the other week. My pic of choice from that is a shot of William de Bohun's beautifully decorated helm resting on its stand after our show. De Bohun himself was looking a little hot after fighting in full armour in very high temperatures!
Something yellow
Again from Spain, these pretty flowers grow wild everywhere, they are all over the beaches and any uncultivated area. I don't know their proper names, they have very thick fleshy leaves to conserve water and come in pink versions as well.
My camera
Pic taken using mirror in good old blog tradition! My trusty little camera – on its last legs but still taking some lovely pics – what would my blog be without it! It is a Fuji A850, about 2 years old.
ThimbleAnna's pics can be found here – she's got a good one for keys and the lists and links to other's collections are at Kathy's blog if you want to join in.
Thanks for visiting – see you for more craft updates soon!
Hello there
I have been having a very lovely week and I do hope you have too. It has been absolutely glorious weather, I have spent lots of time in the garden, doing both boring practical things like cutting the hedge ;-( and nice stuff like having a bbq and enjoying my flowers. My garden has really matured this year , the clematis is about 3 times the size it was last year and everything is looking very lovely so please indulge me while I show you a few pics.
Quite a lot has been going on indoors as well though this has been a relatively quiet week for me (like most of the population here in the UK) with only 3 work days and lots of lovely holiday. I celebrated the Royal Wedding by having a few friends round for cupcakes and Cava during the ceremony and a little buffet lunch afterwards. I thought Kate's dress was absolutely stunning – just perfect for her. Will not post pics of that as apparently a third of the world's population watched the wedding so I'm sure you will have seen it! However here are my cupcakes that I made for the do – the first chance I have had to use my cake stand!
On the crafting front I have been working on my pink Sublime baby cardi and my JBW Plum Pudding Xmas ornie – the latter is nearly finished. I also have started a new quilting WIP. I said a while ago that I wanted to organise my quilt fabric stash in a similar way to how I have seen other people sort things on their blogs so bought some plastic storage boxes and was surprised to find that I actually have very little quilt fabric (lots of other types of fabric but that is another story!) This is it basically.
Pretty poor isn't it compared to some of the big names out there in the quilting world? However I am planning trips to the Malvern Quilt Show at the end of May and the Festival of Quilts in Birmingham in August so will have a chance to add to the stash. Sorting it all out did give me a chance to mull over a project I have had in mind for a while which is a small throw for the back of one of my sofas in the lounge. It is a brown leather sofa which is quite plain and since I have lots of lovely medieval style fabrics I thought I would make a start on cutting out some squares which I did this afternoon.
This is not the final layout just a bit of a working plan, I am thinking about a large central square of one of the dark red fabrics with gold silk sashing and then strips of all the other squares with red silk sashing in between each square. No time limit for this piece just something to pick up as and when I get time – things are about to get very hectic round here with term starting again and all my re-enactment and other things.
I have finished my Spring Exchange piece for the Seasonal Exchange with a whole 3 days to spare and that has been sent to the USA this week so will post pics of that once it has been received. I got mine from Lisa last week when I got back from holiday so here are the pics of it. Please do go and visit her blog as she has loads of lovely stitching on it.
It is very lovely, the finish is so neat with lots of really even blanket stitch and I love the backing fabric as well. It is hanging on my patio doors with last year's seasonal exchange Spring ornie making me feel very happy – I do love this season camping, bbqs just being able to be outdoors lots – fabulous!!!
Finally Elmsley Rose asked me in comment a while ago what my header pic was – it is part of a crewel work picture I bought from E-Bay about 4 years ago, unfortunately no info came with it about date or maker but I did promise that I would take a pic of the full thing so here it is. It is not a brilliant pic as it is framed with glass so there are some reflections but I really like this piece – it hangs in my hallway.
Well I will love you and leave you and hope that you have a very good week ahead. I am looking forward to a quilting workshop next Saturday and as much crafting as I can squeeze into my tight schedule!
Bye for now and thank you for visiting.

It may be the highest selling system utility, as I've been led to believe, but just like the highest selling AV (McAfee), you shouldn't at all believe the hype. If you're willing to try something new, you can try either Ashampoo Winoptimizer 9, Auslogics Boostspeed 5, or the best one IMO - Advanced system Care 6.
Medicines for the latest versions of all these three are widely available on the net
P.S. - There are myriad other decent ones available like JV16 Power Tools, Glary Utilities, Yamicsoft Windows Manager etc. that you may try out. The best thing about all of these is that they do not do things on the sly
Tune-up does have it's strong points, if you wanna be an install and forget type of guy, but if you wanna be more hands on with your PC, there are much, much better options available in the market IMO

|Kir1.1 expression in embryonic kidney epithelia.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 14651999 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|K(+) channels may regulate cell cycling, cell volume, and cell proliferation. We have recently shown a role for an inwardly rectifying K(+) channel, Kir6.1/SUR2(B), in the regulation of cell proliferation during early kidney development. Here, we show that the protein of a further K(+) channel, Kir1.1 (ROMK), is also developmentally expressed in prenatal rat kidney epithelia. In the embryonic stage, Kir1.1 protein was localized to the plasma membrane of ureteric buds and collecting ducts, and of nephron stages up to the comma-shaped body. Experimental increase in cAMP upregulated Kir1.1b (ROMK2) mRNA abundance in ureteric buds. Kir1.1 protein was restricted to the distal nephron during later postnatal development and adulthood, as has been reported. In conclusion, we demonstrate redundancy of Kir channel expression in early embryonic kidney which could suggest that Kir1.1 acts in a similar way as Kir6.1/SUR2(B) to promote cell proliferation or other developmental functions.

On Saturday, Feb. 23, the main floors of Guthrie Memorial Library will be transformed into an indoor miniature golf course and participants will be able to putt between the rows of books to raise money for the library.
The main floor of the library, as well as the teen department and children's department, will be used for holes one through 18. The John D. Bare Center, in the basement, will have a café with Schultz's Delicatessen offering golf-type fare. Schultz's will share a portion of its proceeds with the library.
"It's structured to be a family event," said Lisa Kane, director of development for Guthrie Memorial.
Kane said the mini golf event balances the library's annual summer solstice fundraiser in June.
"We had the summer solstice for adults. We thought we'd have another fundraiser for children," she said.
Kane said she got the idea for the miniature golf event from the Fredrickson Library in Camp Hill. She took a day last February to visit and volunteer with that library to observe its event.
"I went up there. I wanted to see how it was set up and what it would look like," said Kane, noting that her planning started over the summer.
MedExpress is the title sponsor for Guthrie's event, but Kane said the library is still seeking businesses and individuals to sponsor holes and have established three sponsorship levels, ranging from $500 to $150.
The money raised will be used to support book and e-book purchases, programming and the Summer Reading Club.
The Guthrie Memorial Library currently has 32,500 cardholders in Adams and York counties, and loaned out more than 355,000 items in 2011.
The library receives nearly half its funding from the Borough of Hanover, about 39 percent from state, county and local funding, and the remainder from miscellaneous grants, gifts and fundraising.
Tickets for the mini golf event are on sale at the library for $30 a family and $10 per person. Area school PTOs and clubs will assist the library in ticket sales beginning this month and the library will donate 10 percent of its ticket sales back to each organization.
If you go
What: Mini Golf at the Library fundraiser
When: Saturday, Feb. 23, 10 a.m. to 6 p.m.
Where: Guthrie Memorial Library, 2 Library Place, Hanover
Information: For more information, please visit www.guthrielibrary.org or call Lisa Kane at 717-632-5183.

At Tortillera Los Gemelos in Port Chester, just near the Capitol Theatre, we love the taquitos, small soft-shell fried corn tortillas filled with marinated pork and garnished with cilantro and onions.

Port Chester calls itself the restaurant capital of Westchester, and has every right to.
Famous names like Mario Batali have helped put the village on the culinary map. But thanks in large part to immigrants hungry for a taste of home, this 2.4-square-mile village has more than 100 eating establishments - many with no website, no publicist and certainly no cooking show.
Port Chester restaurants are seeing a new clientele with the relaunch of the Capitol Theatre as a concert venue. With so many people coming to town to see My Morning Jacket there this weekend, we thought it a fine time to take an ...
