So is there an actual group of Catholics who have not already left for other reasons that you expect to walk if an African is at their head?
Plenty. If they choose an African, I'll buy popcorn and read all comments of those pissed off "good Catholic" Poles on all available Polish news portals. Sure it could be a minority from the whole group, but it would be a very vocal minority. Watching their heads steam and smoke would be a lot of fun
So Eastern Europe, I guess many might turn Orthodox. What I am seeing in America are young Catholic Priest who are not the big brother of the hero protagonist white ethnic cop like they are on the cop show procedurals. So an entire generation of Catholics, like the ones who elected President Obama, have had a Priest from Africa, Latin America or the Philippines who immigrated under an R (religious) or H (work) visa.

Your dealer can't be a "certified Gravely Mechanic" If he doesn't know much about commerical equipment, And one of the things they cover is Hydro tear-down. I work for a EX Gravely dealer,He finially got smart and dumped them.
Just a little food for thought; If you found metal in the pump and didn't find where it was coming from inside the pump Did you know it could be coming from the wheel motor and getting into the pump ?
Anytime you have metal contamination in a hydro. system, Once the problem is found and repaired the system must be flushed and cleaned and the hydro tank removed and cleaned and of course new filters installed. The last thing you want to do is wipe out a new pump.
Just my 2 cents.

IN PART, INTEL TRAILS IN THE mobile-chip race because it has treated tablets and smartphones as second-class citizens, providing their makers with only its Atom line of microprocessors. Historically, these haven't been as technologically sophisticated, fast, or powerful as the microprocessors Intel makes for personal computers and servers.
Making chips smaller can enormously boost their efficiency, measured by how much work they can do per watt of power expended.
For a year or more, Intel has been shipping PC and server chips, dubbed "Core," with transistors that measure 22 nanometers, or billionths of a meter. But the first 22-nanometer Atom chips are only now reaching production. Devices using them aren't expected to reach stores before the holidays, says microprocessor analyst Tom Halfhill of the Linley Group. That would put Atom about a year behind the Core family of chips in adopting 22-nanometer technology.
The next step for Intel is to introduce its still-faster 14-nanometer designs, which are expected to enter production in its Core line of chips by about 2014's second quarter. According to a person close to Intel, the company is likely to announce a schedule at IDF that would significantly trim the inevitable one-year lag for boosting the Atom chip to the next level in speed. And in fact, Atoms will go into 14-nanometer production just six months after the Core chips.
ARM-based chips have had an advantage in power efficiency, one of the main reasons they're favored for use in phones and tablets, where battery life is partially determined by the efficiency of the microprocessor. Intel has been closing the gap, but not fast enough.
The 22-nanometer Atom chips probably are about at parity with ARM-based chips in delivering the same performance at comparable power levels, says Halfhill.
But parity isn't good enough. To win over customers, Intel must demonstrate an advantage in performance per watt of power. "There's not enough of an incentive for OEMs [original-equipment manufacturers] to move to x86 if they're merely getting comparable performance and energy savings," Halfhill observes, referring to Intel's x86 chip architecture, which has dominated the personal-computer world for decades.
When Intel moves Atom to the 14-nanometer size, adds the analyst, the chips finally might boast a power advantage over ARM's. That eventually could help turn Intel from laggard to leader in mobile devices.The announcement at IDF might even come with disclosure of specific dates, albeit not hard-and-fast ones, on which production of the 14-nanometer Core and Atom chips will begin, making the stepped-up schedule more credible.
THE QUESTION THAT WALL STREET will ask in the wake of such a development is what the payoff would be for Intel. At the least, it could help investors' sentiment on the chip maker's stock. At a recent $21.91, the shares fetch a below-market multiple of 11 times next year's expected earnings because Intel is seen as tied to the withering PC market, with no new opportunities. They yield 4.1%
The chip giant has made billions selling microprocessors costing hundreds to thousands of dollars. As I've noted before in this space, chips sold by Nvidia and other manufacturers for phones and tablets are far less expensive, below $100 to start with and, in reality, as low as $10 or $20, though pricing varies tremendously as companies vie to be in each hot new tablet or phone.
Selling Atom chips with the latest technology would mark a major change for Intel, which has tended to allocate its top manufacturing resources to its most expensive products, to generate the biggest upfront payoff.
With Intel's trailing position in tablets and smartphones, Atom chips, in low volume and with low prices, wouldn't offer much revenue or profit initially to the company.
But even if the revenue contribution is very small at first, relative to that generated by PC, server, and networking chips, says Halfhill, Atom could give Intel a strategic, long-term boost. "This is rather like in chess," he suggests, "setting up the board before trying to take the king."
Not only would Intel gain some sales to producers of tablets and smartphones, it would establish its x86 chip architecture as a viable alternative to ARM's designs. And it would show that x86 can remain at the cutting edge of chip technology for many more years.
INTEL HAS LONG ARGUED THAT the PC market, which has declined sharply this year, is reinventing itself. New models that combine the best of tablets and laptops are supposed to eventually give it a boost.
Newly appointed Intel CEO Brian Krzanich last month said that both Core and Atom chips are being designed into more than 50 models of such 2-in-1, or hybrid, tab-laptops this year. But the argument is wearing thin. Hybrids have shown little traction. It's possible that next year's revamped Atom chips will improve sales, but it's also possible that hybrids are just duds.
In that case, to thrive Intel absolutely must gain ground in tablets and smartphones.
An accelerated schedule for Atom doesn't guarantee that tablet and phone makers will purchase the Intel chips. After all, they've been buying from the ARM camp for years, and there's an argument for sticking with what works.
But the news from IDF next month could be the best development for Intel's outlook in years.

What's it really going to cost to attend this year's big Budweiser Made In America music festival?
Depends when you buy.
While earlier reports have a two day (Aug 31-Sept 1) pass to the Ben Franklin Parkway mega-show going for either $99.50 or $117 (with Ticketmaster processing fee factored in) that's the pre-sale, early bird special price that's good "while supplies last" and was also available to trusting types before the lineup was announced yesterday.
Wait too long - like a week - and the two-day, general admission deal to catch biggies like pop diva Beyonce, heavy rockers Nine Inch Nails, Latin pop crossover sensation Miguel, hip-hop legends Public Enemy, French indie rockers Phoenix, EMD star deadmau5 and pop rock flavor of the week Imagine Dragons goes up to $150.

BARBOURVILLE, Kentucky (WVLT) -- Kentucky State Police are investigating a double shooting in Barbourville, Kentucky, that left one woman dead and another man wounded.
KSP said they were called in to help the Knox Co. (KY) Sheriff's Office shortly before 8:00 p.m. on Sunday. The Sheriff's Office had initially responded to a domestic dispute call.
Arriving at Blue Gable Straight, authorities found Francis Elliot, 54, had been fatally shot. Her body was taken to the State Medical Examiners Office for autopsy. Randy Hale, 42, had suffered a gunshot wound as well and had to be flown to the University of Kentucky Medical Center.
Kentucky State Police said the case is still under investigation.

Outpouring of sympathy online for sacked official in quake zone
Most Popular
The toppling of Communist Party officials is often met with schadenfreude, but the sacking of a deputy township chief in quake-hit Lushan county has sparked a rare public outcry.
Yang Chengyi, 47, was removed from his post at in Qingyuan township on Wednesday for being absent from a relief work site at Hengxi village, making him the first official to lose his job in the wake of Saturday's magnitude 7 earthquake.
But Yang's removal attracted sympathy from the public, including villagers and his colleagues.
They contended that the deputy chief was only away from his post when party disciplinary inspectors arrived because he was busy allocating relief materials in remote areas.
Internet users applauded Yang's down-to-earth working style, saying that officials like him should be promoted, not sacked.
Many wryly noted that doing nothing had become the common practice for party cadres.
Yang refused to comment on his own removal, saying he was too busy participating in relief efforts to discuss the move.
"I just want to do my best for the relief effort, there are tons of things to do," he said, his voice cracking. "I don't want to defend myself. I just want to do my best to help the villagers."
A rescue worker from the Sichuan Centre for Disease Control and Prevention said he and Yang had been working for a few days at a rural village when the inspectors arrived at Hengxi.
"He has been wronged. He is a very responsible official and an honest man," said the rescue worker, who declined to be named.
He said the inspectors could not reach them because there was no mobile phone service in the mountains.
Despite his removal, Yang, a stocky man with thick glasses and grey hair, continued to participate in relief efforts yesterday. Some villagers could be heard calling him "chief Yang".
Jiang Xuerong , a villager in Tongmeng village, said he worked with Yang until 4am on Friday.
"He was so serious about the relief work," Jiang said. "The inspectors came at a bad time. We did a huge amount of work, but the leaders didn't see that."

I really think Tyra gives these girls bad hair, just because she can. It's a power trip for her or something. There's no other reason to make these girls look so ridiculous.

Stacy Ann's hair was by far THE worst. I'm usually a huge fan of the pixie cut but they gave her a flat top! And she had the roundest face in the bunch to boot. At least Claire has the personality to pull off her semi-Susan Powter look.

For some odd reason, Marvita's hair was one of the LEAST troubling to me. But all of the peroxide business? Simply TERRIBLE. And on a different note: the neon sign crawl tyra mail has GOT to GO...it's mind-numbingly annoying when they all read it together in loud sing song voices.

Tyra went insane last night with the bleach and weaves. Honestly, not everyone looks good with a bleach blond weave. Sigh. And poor Marvita, she got a mullet. Seriously. Her hair was horrible. Allison hair was dyed to the most awkward brassy shade of red. UGH! I was taking to my fiance while I was watching this episode and I was just like, wow, I honestly think Tyra is trying to make them look worse this season. Sigh. End rant. :P

Monument Mining has an interest in one other gold
project outside the Selinsing region. The Mersing project is
located in southeast Peninsular Malaysia, and it is host to a
massive geochemical anomaly that holds evidence of widespread
quartz veining. This area has been host to substantial
alluvial mining, but it has never seen systematic widespread
exploration. MMY is currently working to earn a
49% interest in Mersing (for $500k in cash, 1.5m shares,
and $2.0m in exploration commitments), and has the option
to acquire the remainder of the project if it so chooses.
Monument Mining's final exploration project is not primary
gold, but it is a beast that could really add to this company's
bottom line. The Mengapur project is located in central
Peninsular Malaysia and hosts a massive polymetallic
deposit that was originally discovered back in 1979. Mengapur
has seen extensive work that has led to numerous
historic resource estimates, with the most recent showing
1.2b lbs of copper, 1.2m ozs of gold, 64m ozs of silver,
along with significant sulfur, iron, and molybdenum.
Mengapur has also been subject to a definitive feasibility.

There are more than 1.5 million single women over the age of 30, according to Ministry of Economy and Planning statistics published in 2011. This figure is expected to rise to 4 million by 2015.
The increasing number of educated women, especially Saudi women with steady jobs, [2] is now considered the norm, but has caused a shocking rise in the number of girls who remain unmarried across the Kingdom.
According to cultural norms across much of the Eastern world, a single woman who has surpassed the age of 25 is considered to have missed the marriage train. In fact, many Eastern cultures view the 18 to 24 age bracket as the optimum for marriage. [3]
Several Saudi girls told Arab News that men don't go for overly independent and self-confident women. Others complained about tribal traditions.
Thirty-five-year-old Hamida, for instance, is still single.
"I wanted to marry a colleague, but my father and brothers refused the marriage proposal since he did not belong to my tribe," said Hamida. "My brothers still do not talk to me for what they term 'disobedience.'"
"Our culture, to some extent, is paradoxical [4]," said Sadia Wafee, a social activist. "Girls often have to marry within the same tribe. If they do marry outside the clan, the suitor has to be Saudi. Whatever the end result, tribal traditions give men absolute control over their daughters. This makes marriage very difficult." [5]
"Moreover, the absence of social gatherings and the lack of intermingling between families is adding to this celibacy phenomenon," she said. "Yet such get-togethers are crucial, as they pave the way for singletons to talk and potentially click."
Reem Al-Qahrni, a 23-year-old Saudi, feels the same way.
"Although culture is changing, our traditions remain the same," she said. "A girl only becomes attractive when she is held captive in her house, waiting for a groom."
This age limit issue is the same with expat women in conservative communities living in the Kingdom who have adopted Saudi culture.
Arab News spoke to several families from different communities.
Hiba Abdulrub, an Indian expat, said many families that have been living in the Kingdom for more than 20 or 30 years have embraced the common culture and prefer to marry their daughters off to someone who has lived in the country for just as long.
"Several men from our community consider working women to be too forward and not feminine enough," she said.
For men, the dilemma is different, yet equally as difficult. "In the past, you couldn't even set eyes on a woman until you were married," said one male community member. "Now, it is the complete opposite. You see so much flesh that you are put off getting married altogether. In addition, the dowry issue [6]and the increasing costs associated with marriage are putting young men off, adding to this crisis."

Swine Flu Threatening NYC HS Baseball Schedule
Swine flu is all the rage these days, as you can't turn on the news without hearing of the latest diagnosed case in the United States or in other parts of the world. To be honest, I'm not even entirely sure what swine flu is exactly because I don't really care. I don't work with pigs, and I live inside a plastic bubble like John Travolta did in that one movie, so I'm not exactly worried.
("Touch me. I dare you.")
Still, there are the rest of you people who don't live in a bubble — I call you "world walkers" — who may be susceptible to the disease. Sucks for you. It also sucks for students at St. Francis Prep in New York, where an outbreak occurred amongst the schools' students last week. Everybody is fine and the school has undergone a pretty intense cleaning, but although the school is scheduled to reopen this week, that doesn't mean anybody wants to play their baseball team.

During her brief trip to London this week, you might say Angelina Jolie was treated like a queen.
A source exclusively tells E! News that when the Oscar winner made her way to breakfast on Thursday, she had a six-police motorbike envoy as she was taken in a car to Downing Street (10 Downing Street being the home of Prime Minister David Cameron, of course).
In fact, we were told it was a full-on affair, with traffic being stopped for Brad Pitt's significant other, much in the same way it would normally be done for, say, Her Majesty.
According to our source, Jolie loved every minute of it, adding that it was exciting and fun for her because she's never been given that kind of treatment in London before.
Later, the 38-year-old was photographed leaving her hotel for the airport to hop on a flight to Sarajevo.
On the previous night, Jolie stopped at the foreign office for a cocktail before meeting up with British Secretary of State for Foreign and Commonwealth Affairs William Hague for dinner.
WATCH: Angelina Jolie spreads her wings and soars in new Maleficent trailer
Earier in the week, Jolie was on hand at CinemaCon in Las Vegas, where she introduced footage from her second directorial effort, Unbroken.
Shortly thereafter, the filmmaker took five of her six children shopping at Bonanza Gifts. (Maddox apparently opted to sit this one out.)
"The kids bought a lot of cute toys, plush items and little cars," a rep for the store told E! News. "They were all in such a happy mood. The kids go nuts when they come here. They just get really excited. It's a fun store."
The rep added that the Jolie-Pitt clan spent about 45 minutes there, noting, "This is Angie's third time coming into Bonanza Gifts in the last three years. When she comes in she is really quiet, just interacting with her kids. She is such a normal mom. Her kids run up and show her what they like and she follows them around. It's just a normal shopping experience."

St. Petersburg, FL (Sports Network) - Alex Cobb tossed seven strong innings to lead the Tampa Bay Rays past the Baltimore Orioles, 5-3, in the opener of a three-game set at Tropicana Field.
Cobb (11-9) surrendered one run on two hits and two walks while striking out seven for the Rays, who have won 11 of their last 12.
Tampa Bay's surge came too late, though, as the Oakland Athletics topped the Texas Rangers later on Monday to clinch the AL's final wild card spot.
Ben Zobrist homered and Chris Gimenez hit a two-run double in the victory, while Fernando Rodney stranded the tying runs on base in the ninth inning to record his 47th save of the season.
Wei-Yin Chen (12-11) allowed four runs -- one earned -- on six hits and a walk through 6 2/3 innings for Baltimore, which fell a game behind the Yankees for the top spot in the AL East after New York defeated the Boston Red Sox on Monday.
"We're playing this like every other game we're playing this year," Orioles catcher Matt Wieters said. "We're going out there trying to win every game and we'll forget about this going into tomorrow."
Zobrist broke a scoreless tie in the bottom of the fourth inning with a leadoff blast to left field.
The Orioles stranded a runner on second in the sixth inning before Wieters knotted the game at 1-1 in the seventh with home run over the wall in left field.
But Tampa Bay went back on top in the bottom of the frame as Evan Longoria reached base on third baseman Manny Machado's fielding error, moved to third on a Jeff Keppinger single and raced home on Ben Francisco's sacrifice fly to left field.
Sam Fuld followed with a base hit to right field to place runners on the corners before Gimenez slapped a double into the right-field corner, plating pinch-runner Rich Thompson and Fuld for a 4-1 lead.
"I was just trying to get a pitch to hit," Gimenez said about his double. "Thankfully I was able to do it."
B.J. Upton led off the eighth with a double and later came home on Carlos Pena groundout to increase the Rays' advantage.
Kyle Farnsworth allowed Chris Davis' two-run homer off the catwalk in the ninth inning to bring Baltimore within 5-3.
Rodney entered next and allowed back-to-back singles to Adam Jones and Wieters, but then struck out Jim Thome and Mark Reynolds, and induced a grounder back to the mound by pinch-hitter Endy Chavez to end the game.
Cobb has won seven of his last eight decisions ... Chen has not earned a win
in seven straight starts ... Baltimore leads the season series between the
teams, 9-7 ... The Orioles were 1-for-6 with runners in scoring position and
left five men on base ... Tampa Bay went 1-for-7 with runners in scoring
position and stranded five.
Pope Francis' visit to Philadelphia in September has altered the date of the Penn-Villanova football game.
Kyle Busch won Sunday's road course race in Sonoma, California, but he still has a long way to go to become eligible for a spot in the Chase for the Sprint Cup championship.

The Oklahoma City Thunder have reportedly retained restricted free agent forward Kyle Singler with a five-year contract extension.

The comments on yesterday's review of the Caprice Classic Estate reminded me how fundamentally deep the Ford-vs-Chevy rivalry is among American auto enthusiasts. Even in the modern era, when both iconic brands are on the run from Toyota, Hyundai, and (soon) the Chinese, there's still time to catch one's breath and take a swing at the other guy.
So. The "Panther" platform is scheduled for termination within the next year or so. The General Motors B-body departed nearly a decade and a half ago. There will likely never be another American car of the size and proportions of those two. Which was your favorite? My thoughts, and a link to a credible source, after the jump.

How to read a knitting chart
Charts are graphic representations of knitting instructions. They are a compact way to illustrate more patterns that would take much more space if described in text instructions.
Charts also illustrate how a lace, colourwork or cable pattern will look once it is knit up, and this means that when you use charts, it is easier to see where you are in a pattern, and identify errors early.
After a bit of practice, most knitters find working from charts much more intuitive, quick, and simple than working from line-by-line text instructions.
Each square is a stitch ::: start with the key
In a chart, each square represents a knitting stitch, similar to the way that each abbreviation in text instructions does (for example k2tog or p1). The first thing you should check when you start knitting from a chart is the key or legend, and chart notes if they are included. This will explain which symbols represent which kind of stitches. Often, an empty square means to knit the stitch, and generally, a yarn-over will be represented by an O in the square. However, each designer may have a different format and set of symbols. Once you understand the meaning of each of the symbols, you can proceed to knitting the chart.
Are all rows shown… or just the RS rows?
Charts will either show all rows (or rounds) or only illustrate one side of the work, usually the right side. If the chart shows only right side rows, text instructions will be given for how to work the wrong side rows. The omission of wrong-side rows is common in lace charts, because many lace patterns are simply purled on wrong-side rows. As you can see from this illustration, the structure of the lace pattern shows up much more clearly when the wrong-side rows (which aren't conveying much information) are removed.
But how do I actually knit following a chart?
Once you've reviewed the key and chart notes, and determined whether all rows are shown, or just the right-side rows, you can get started knitting from the chart.
Typically, for right side rows, you will work the stitches one at a time from RIGHT to LEFT.
So where only right side rows are shown, this means that you read each row shown in the chart from RIGHT to LEFT. To work the wrong side rows, follow the instructions given in the text or chart notes.
If the chart shows BOTH right side and wrong side rows, you will work the RS rows from RIGHT to LEFT, and the WS rows from LEFT to RIGHT.
If you think of the chart as a picture of the finished fabric taken from the right side of the work, this makes sense, as the RS rows are worked one stitch at a time from right to left, and the WS rows are worked from right to left too… but on the opposite side.
A careful reading of the chart key is crucial in this case, because often chart symbols are worked in one way on the right side of the work, and in another way on the wrong side of the work (for example, knit on the right side, purl on the wrong side).
What are the heavy lines?
Commonly, stitch and row repeats are indicated by heavy lines (or boxes) in the chart. This is similar to the use of brackets in text knitting instructions. So you would work the edge stitches one time, then work the 'repeat' stitches as many times as possible (always reading the set of instructions from right to left on right side rows), before ending with the edge stitches at the end of row.
What do I do when I get to the end of the chart?
After you've worked the last (top) row of a chart, you would typically begin again at the bottom at row or round 1, if the stitch pattern is repeated several times. The text pattern instructions will let you know how many rows / inches to work following the chart.
How to Read a Lace Chart
Lace patterns are often described only in charts, as they may have large stitch and row repeats can make writing out (and reading) lace patterns quite cumbersome.
At Tin Can Knits, 90% of our lace patterns use charts that only illustrate the RS of the work, because we find these types of patterns much more intuitive, simple and satisfying to knit.
Of course, there are always exceptions to this rule, and when both sides of the work are charted, you will work the RS rows from right to left, and the WS rows from left to right, making sure to check the key so you understand how stitches are worked on the RS vs the WS of the work.
How to read a Colourwork Chart
Fair-isle stranded colourwork is usually worked in the round, so that the RS of the work is always facing, you are working the knit stitch most of the time, and you can easily see the pattern forming as you work it. However, there are some exceptions to the rule in which colourwork is worked flat (in rows). Either way, charts for colourwork patterns will generally illustrate every round (or row).
If the pattern is to be worked in the round, then you will read every round from right to left.
If the pattern is to be worked flat, then you will read the right-side rows from right to left, and the wrong-side rows from left to right (in the opposite direction); in order for the pattern to form as designed.
As fair-isle colourwork is typically stockinette stitch (knitting all sts on the RS, purling all sts on the WS), the chart key will typically describe which colours to work each stitch with, rather than the kind of stitch to work. So when you see a square that corresponds to CC1, you will knit one stitch with contrast colour #1.
How to read a Cable Chart
Cable charts may either show every row or round, or show only right side rows, with instructions for 'keeping in pattern' given for the WS rows (typically you would knit the knits, and purl the purls).
One special feature of cable charts are the symbols for cable turns. Cables are worked over more than one stitch, so the symbols for cable turns are more than one stitch wide. As you can see from the antler cable below, c4b and c4f – cable 4 back and front – are worked over 4 stitches. Be sure to review the chart key before you cast on!

Charted Delicacies from Tin Can Knits:

I have a pattern that has a chart and the instructions says to do 5 repeats of the chart. Does that mean I do the chart 5 times or 6 (the first one and then 5 repeats) .
November 8, 2015 2:15 pm
When it says maker on the chart. Does that mean I place the marker and knit the stitch or the square is just place the marker and do what it says for the next stitch it shows for the next stitch????

Hi, hope you can help me out, trying to knit the Top Down Raglan Summer Lace Cardigan & am having a dickens of a time trying to figure it out. It has a written pattern up to the 8th row but from 9 on is a chart which makes no sense to me. It does show the repetitive pattern of lace which I can see but that's about it. The chart starts at the raglan stitch & goes from there, I have written out what it shows for 1st row and it doesn't show the 2nd or 3rd raglan stitches like the written pattern does. I have gone on you tube & looked at how to read charts but to no avail. Even trying to write out the pattern it doesn't tell me where the front, raglan, sleeve, raglan, back, raglan, sleeve, raglan, front breaks are. Also there is knitting, yo, ssk's, k2tog's before the 1st & after the last raglan stitches (which is the front). I have knit numerous Leisure Arts raglans and never had any problems. I have also knitted a lace scarf, so I have some experience. Thanks for listening.

HI, I have a chart where the bottom row is labeled number 1 on the left rather than the right. Does that mean the first row is the wrong side and I read it left to right? Rather than reading the first row right to left? Thank you very much for your help.

This tutorial is heaven sent! Thank you so much! I've only read lace charts that had RS rows and just started one which had both RS and WS rows on the chart Now know that I should've been reading the WS row from left to right. Have had to frog my work twice halfway through. Hopefully it'll turn out right this time.

Hey guys,
So I just started the Prairie Fire pullover and I have gotten to the lace chart. I can follow charts fairly well, but I am a little confused with this piece of the pattern. I am on round 3 of the lace chart and the pattern says to "knit to the chart and knit next chart round". My confusion comes from not seeing how many knit stitches there are before I begin the lace chart.
In round 1 of front of pullover it was KNIT 20, ROUND 1 OF LACE CHART, KNIT 20
For round 3, there are two increase sts at either end of the front section, so would I still be knitting 20 sts before I get the lace chart? Am I supposed to include the increases in the stitch count?
I hope I explained my confusion in a way that makes sense. Any help would be super appreciated! :) thank you so so much!

HI, I'm trying to knit snowflake and am doing lace knitting for the first time. I'm very sure I've got my markers in the right place and i am reading right to left but somehow the number of stitches doesn't seem to match up. For example for chart A i have 5 stitches until the centreline stitch and i have to k1, yo,[ k1, k2tog, yo,] k1 which by my calculation will use 7 stitches. What am i doing wrong? I'm really confused.

I am new at charts and I have finished working the rows 1-24 of chart b of the rosebud shawl for the first time and I am starting on the second time. I don't know how to do the pattern repeats. Do I start with K3, and then the entire row 1 (including the remaining yo), then repeat the pattern repeats until I reach the end of the row, where I will knit the remaining yo and then the K3? or Do I work row one until the end of the pattern repeat, do as many pattern repeats, and then only at the end will I work the yo, and then end with the K3? I hope I'm making sense :(

Hi! First time stranded knitter and I think I've bitten off more than I can chew!!! the pattern has 16 stitches including what they call the "centre stitch". I needed to cast on 31 stiches. I presume I repeat the pattern once – but what do I do with the "centre stitch"? ps its knitted flat. So I'm also unsure about what I do with the centre stitch when I haveG to turn around and work purl???

I have been knitting for well over 60 years and have never understood lace charts although l can follow written instructions and colour charts. In fact we made our own colour charts to knit a pattern on the back of mittens at primary school, boys included and then knitted them. I knitted a lace pattern hot water bottle as well before l left but from written instructions. Got into awful trouble for reading at the same time and making a mistake. We got thumped if we made knitting mistakes. Thank you for making it so clear.

Am knitting first lace, a sweater, and it is in the round. Starts row one of chart with three sts then the repeat begins. Of course, there are increases, so now there are 11 sts outside the rpt. After 14 rows I have to repeat row one, etc. The sts are K K YO. So 2 sts into 11, I have one left over before the repeat. Should it divide evenly, or ?

February 8, 2015 4:11 pm
Hi –
I have a question….
I am working on a sweater where the back is three panels and has three different charts. One chart for the left, one for the center, one for the right of the back. I'm assuming that when I turn the work to work the wrong side rows that I also change the charts order. So for the wrong side I would use the left chart first, then center, then right. Is this correct? I'm about six rows up and wanted to make sure I'm doing this correctly. I am reading from left to right on each chart on the wrong side row. Thank you!

This is a very useful, straightforward tutorial! Here's a question I'm not certain about.
As I am left handed, should I read the RS rows left to right instead or do you think it will matter? That would be the natural direction my knitting would follow…
And for any sort of directional stitch, should I likewise attempt to do the opposite? I.e. ssk to k2tog, m1R to m1L, and vice versa? Thanks.

I'm not clear when I read this in a pattern chart for knit in the round a cowl : Begin chart 1 and repeat the pattern 16 times and then knit chart 1, rows 1-6 3 times.
I casted on 60 stitches and the chart has 6 rows. I would like to know how many times do I have to repeat the chart.Thanks.
December 22, 2014 3:59 pm
I think I need some help with these
I have the chart and am unsure how to actually DO it, do I cast on ALL the stitches ((60)) and continue with that? Or do it separately and stitch all together? Or knit it in the round? I know the big red line on it is where you do the thumb. But other then that, I'm not sure how to do this. I'm going to start it working the entire thing in the flat, putting the 'thumb' stitches in a bit of spare yarn and then taking it up once done. Its just a bit confusing as there is nothing BUT the chart and red lines that's it.
Thanks for the time.
Amanda permalinkNovember 15, 2014 5:49 am
So when working a pattern in the round you remain on the right side of the work, so you would consistently read the chart from right to left?

Your site has most complete lesson on charts. Was so glad to find it.
This is one chart that becomes lop-sided when I follow it. I have found others. Is there a technic that I do not know. Designer says there are no errors and just follow chart.
Have been asking on other sites and on some google says my acct. Has been deleted.
That's another can of worms not to be done today.
June 6, 2014 12:04 pm
Hello this is really helpful but I do have one question: if you are knitting in the round (rather than rows worked back and forth flat) do you work each round in the same direction (ie right to left)? I'm assuming yes because you're never going in 2 opposite directions… Thanks in advance! 😄
June 6, 2014 12:19 pm
Also are you meant to reverse the stitches on the WS? I'm confused!

MADISON, Wis. - When Penn State comes to the Kohl Center later today, it will bring its best record (12-2) since the 1995-96 campaign. The Nittany Lions beat a seemingly improved Northwestern squad 61-57 in its conference opener and hope to end a streak of 11 straight losses in Madison. The following are five things to watch during Saturday's early afternoon tilt between Wisconsin and Penn State:1. Containing Talor BattleAs a freshman a season ago, Battle proved to be a highly effective Big Ten guard. This season, he has improved to be much more. The New York native is leading the conference in scoring with 19.6 points per game. But he also does the little things that elevate point guards to elite status. In PSU's 14 games, he averages 6.1 rebounds and 5.3 assists per game. It seems UW junior Trevon Hughes, who has also elevated his level of play this season, will guard the Nittany Lion sophomore. The fact that Hughes will be guarding Battle may be a good sign for Badger fans as Hughes typically has some of his better games when he is matched up with a premier player. This should be one of the more entertaining match-ups of the entire game. 2. UW dominates PSU at homeOver the past 11 meetings between the two schools in Madison, UW has not been on the losing side. In the past five meetings at the Kohl Center the Badgers have dominated Penn State, winning by nearly 30 points per game. Last season, Wisconsin clinched the outright conference championship when it throttled the Nittany Lions 77-41. While this season's version of Penn State is markedly improved from a season ago, it will be interesting to see if the Lions can steal a win in a place it has been historically dormant. 3. Penn State's "Big Three"Wisconsin has seen its fair share of opponent duo's or trios so far this season and it will see another one later today. Battle, Jemelle Cornley and Stanley Pringle all average at least 14 points and make Penn State the only team in the conference with three scorers within the league's top 10. The Badgers have struggled in past games, particularly Marquette with Dominic James, Jerel McNeal and Wesley Mathews, when being matched up with three star players, so it will be interesting to see how the Badgers handle this Nittany Lion trio. 4. Jon LeuerIt is truly remarkable the impact this sophomore has had coming off the Badger bench so far this season. By averaging nearly 10 points a game with an average of only 18 minutes of action, he has joined the Big Ten leader board in scoring efficiency. Against Michigan, Leuer came off the bench within the first minute of action and was again highly effective off the dribble. At his size, he demands plenty of respect with his ball handling skills and has proven to be a mismatch for many defenders. Look for the Minnesota native to continue making an impact on the scoreboard later today as Penn State only has one player that matches his height. 5. Battling the fluBefore their match-up with Northwestern to open its conference slate, many Penn State players became ill with flu-like symptoms. Senior Danny Morrissey (20.2 minutes per game) did not play as he had a high fever before the game, and Cornley, David Jackson and Jeff Brooks all endured some vomiting throughout the contest. It will be interesting to see if those bouts with the flu will carry over into today's game. ...More... To continue reading this article you must be a member. Sign Up Now!

I didn't think about it, actually. But I know that men have clearly defined lines, just as women do. Touching neck ridges would be as violating and offensive for both sexes. There's no such thing as a "he's guy, he would like it if a pretty girl would do it". No, he wouldn't.
My Cardassians treat physical relationships very seriously. Of course, there are many, who ignore those social rules and chase every girl (or every comfort woman), but as a rule they don't just jump into each other beds. That would be indecent. For both boys and girls.

It's his bad judgement. She was furious. And even for a second she didn't think that he did something innocent, or there was any justification to his behaviour.
It's not even that he had thought she would understand he wanted to punish the human, it's more like he expected her to understand that the human had to be punished for her ugly thoughts "about

I don't think he understands what he has done. He accepts the punishment, but did he say he regreted his
? He regrets, because he was caught and he disappointed his Gul, not because he scared a woman to death.
Still, from his point of view it was a game. He didn't really want to hurt her, so he thinks he wasn't so wrong. Now, if someone would be really harassing her - he wouldn't condone that either. He wanted to "punish" her, not harm her. For him it's a difference. He can't see things from her point of view, he just doesn't get it.

Reviews of Sydney Blinds & Screens
Amanda Zak 1 reviewService was disgraceful! Products were recieved later than double the estimated delivery time and we were shown no courtesy to advise us of the delays. Then when products were finally recieved, part of the order was fitted incorrectly so we were forced to wait a further 6 weeks to get the issue rectified. I recommend that customers avoid this company at all costs!!
Recommended by my building caretaker. Nothing went smoothly or to schedule. Instead of all being done before we moved in it dragged on for weeks. Then when the screens arrived the mesh in one of the doors was so loose it hit the glass sliding door. This one was returned to the factory and took longer than promised. Rather than be without screens we have decided to put up with the other screens and screen door. The installer also damaged the paintwork around two windows where they installed screens. Fortunately they had to return with the faulty screen door and got to see the damage. They accepted responsibility without too much difficulty, but didn't want to pay for the original painter to repair. The company refused to accept any responsibility. Their argument was the installer is a contractor not an employee. Had to battle with the company, my contract was with them, to eventually get them to become involved. Took weeks and numerous calls and emails before they finally paid. Annoying part was if they had installed on time the work would have been done before we painted.
Kathy Jones 2 reviews*********DO NOT USE THIS COMPANY BE WARNED*********We spend over $2000.00 on security door and screens and was told there was a 3yrs warranty. the lock on our front too is no longer working so i called them this morning olny to be told that is was not covered underwarranty and was 3 mths outside the warranty and it would cost $60 call out fee & $45 ph after that. i dont appreciate being lied to with regards to the warranty period and the fact it was 3 mths oustide the warranty they would not waive the fee. Happy to take the money but after sales care is so poor. i would never recommend them to anyone. its a shame i couldnt give a negitative rating as i so would
If you're thinking about using these people, think again!
This company has a very poor structure.
I actually don't know how they stay in business.
They just cannot get it right.
I waited 3 months from the day I paid my deposit to the day of instalk when the original quote said 3-4 weeks!!
The job is still not complete, as the wrong parts were ordered for fitting my security screens.
Four different people came to my place for each task;
A sales person to quote the job, two other staff to do a check measure
(Only after it got to 10 weeks and I was starting to get irate and was chasing them up on the phone) and then finally a sub-contractor who was stuck trying to do a job when the wrong parts were supplied.
The job is still not complete months later and I have now paid in full.
I advise any one to give Sydney Blinds and Screens a miss.
In honesty, the Invisigard product is great, but find another reputable dealer because these people are hopeless. Their carefactor for getting the job done as promised or at least keeping the customer informed, is none.
Look elsewhere... Why set yourself up for disappointment?
999hamilton 1 reviewNEVER EVER USE THIS COMPANY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! They are without a doubt the worse company I have ever dealt with. There customer service is completely non-existent. They are rude and could not care. They have clearly gone out of there way to hire people with no ethics or emotions. We have waited 3 months for our blinds. They do not even bother to call you to tell you they cant supply even though they knew this when the order was placed. When they did finally turn up they'd missed blinds and supplied incorrect sizes. They know they can not repeatedly fill their orders and still take the orders, they don't bother to let you know this and when you call they are uncaring and say what do you want me to do about it. They will give you dates and then ring the afternoon before (after you've taken your 3rd day off work for it) and say they cant do it. Even if you demand they do, they tell you they don't have the stock and can't. I asked to speak to the management and was told there's no management staff. This is the rudest most disgusting company I have ever had to deal with. I would never ever recommend you use this company under any circumstances. They should be charged or fined for the way they operate there business. This site would not let me give them a zero or negative star rating that is why they have 1/2 star. They do not deserve this even.
Dot Matrix 2 reviewsTerrible customer service. Waited 7 weeks for a single, standard sized screen door. Surly and unapologetic telephone staff. I guess they must be used to fielding complaints. The installer didn't even bother to sweep up their mess.
I had a shocking experience with this company a few years ago and judging by the recent reviews, it appears the levels of service haven't improved at all!
The quotation is where the good service started and ended. From there it was one problem after another. The installation date kept getting pushed back without any communication from the company, it was up to me to keep chasing.
When the installation date finally arrived, I was flabbergasted by comments from the installer who was critical of the standard of workmanship of our home! At the time I was too stunned to respond. After completing only half the job, they left. One of the roller blinds had a tear in the fabric and they were unable to fit the fly screens as they were missing some parts. No apology, nothing.
I phoned the office to discuss and spoke to a unfriendly and unhelpful person in 'customer service'. I had paid the account in full the day before so I asked if I was going to be compensated in some way for this inconvenience. To this inquiry I received a resounding "no". I asked that surely at least they could ensure this job be given priority, considering the company was clearly at fault? My request was noted. I also asked that a closer be fitted to the screen door (apparently this is not standard? It was certainly not pointed out to me at the time of the quote). I was advised that a closer would be extra $$. I also asked about a weather strip as there was a gap between the bottom of the screen door and the floor. I was advised the installer carried these in the van and could fit one for me.
Eventually a date was set to finish the job. After the 2 hour window had passed, I phone the office yet again and was told they were running late. I questioned the staff as to why nobody had called to inform me? Their response was that the installer had my contact details and it was 'up to them to call me'.
They finally arrived on our doorstep, 4 hours late, without a word of explanation or apology. When they indicated they were finished, I asked them about the weather strip. They responded in a curt tone that they'd not been told about it. They proceeded to speak to me in a very patronizing manner. As I was talking to them, they turned their back, walked to the van and drove off. They left me standing at my front door in shock.
The overall service I received from Sydney Blinds and Screens, particularly the staff who did the installation, was absolutely APPALLING. Customer service is non existent, they are rude and the worst run business I have ever had to deal with. Their quote was the cheapest, but clearly you get what you pay for.
Very poor service. After getting quote and assurance that door could be installed after 4pm or on a Friday I have now been informed 4 weeks later that they cannot guarantee an after 4 installation and they do not install in my area (inner west), on a Friday. what a joke!! I have a deposit of $300.
Stephani24 1 reviewWhy didn't I look at reviews before buying?
I will never order from this company again. They promised me fly screens in 3 weeks. I placed an order on that basis. After 4 weeks, the installer (who was professional and pleasant to deal with) turned up with only half the order and I was informed the other half of the order was delayed. Up until that point, there has been no communication from the company. A few days later, after having made the decision to accept a different colour frame so as to 'speed up' production, I was given an install date almost 6-7 weeks after the order date. The management was unapologetic and blamed the delay on a problem with the order. It was unhelpful, unsympathetic customer service at its best. The best they could offer was a minor discount when what was called for was a genuine apology and also a genuine effort to expedite the order to back up their original estimate. There are other suppliers in Sydney - I would suggest you use them. I will certainly be letting my networks know to avoid Sydney blinds.
SydneyBlindsSuck 1 reviewI wish you could give 0 stars. I will have been waiting 9 weeks for blinds and screens. Customer Service is appalling and there is a complete unwillingness to assist the customer. I was told it was not their issue that I could not open my windows when they left me with fly screens that did not fit. I have lodged a complaint with Fair Trading and would never, ever, ever recommend this company. I also know numerous other orders have been incorrectly measured and that I am not the only one facing this problem.
They were meant to install my fly screens today however 3 of the 5 they screwed up still aren't right and I will be waiting weeks and weeks for them to try to fix them again.
