Patty's Piecing Makeover review and Giveaway
I want to tell you about Patty. Last year in Houston I went along to one of the 'event' things. You know, everyone is invited and you get a free drink and stand around awkwardly cause you don't actually know anyone. There is some air-kissing (and arse kissing) and smiling politely while trying to sneakily read people's name tags.
I was busy doing just that when Patty said Hi, and the rest is history. She is a bubbly, fun little-bit-loopy woman and all that time ago when she asked if I would like to see her book I said yes.
So, time passes as it does and eventually I get a message from Patty saying the book is done and would I like to see it ? I can't even remember what the book is about so I give an enthusiastic YES and hope it is not a knitting book.
Ok ! The thing is, this book was written for me.
I mean it.
I know that I sometimes make quilts but I really do just wing it every time and there is a lot of fudging and swearing and unpicking. There are often tantrums and blocks getting tossed in the bin from across the room.
There is so much fantastic information in this book - stuff that I didn't even know that I didn't know - like the magical little sewey up thing for mitred binding - Seriously !!!
Not to mention the crazy idea of checking that your 1/4 inch is in fact a 1/4 inch
The book is basically a manual that shows you how things go wrong and what to do to fix them. The day it arrived I jumped into the ironing Vs pressing section (cause I suck at both) and ended up reading about seam setting, open or closed seams and whether or not to use steam.
The book takes you through a whole bunch of different quilt blocks, each with a problem, diagnosis and solution. With sections like "Is my wonky strip still useable?" this book really was made for me.
if you would like a bit more of a look inside Patty's book you can visit the folks below
9/13 AnneMarie
9/14 Jodie Carleton
9/15 Teri Lucas/Gen Q Magazine
9/16 Sandi Hazlewood
9/17 Mary Abreu
9/18 Patty !!!!
Patty has kindly offered to give away a copy of the book here on the blog so I want to know what your quilting problem is ? do you pucker? are you leaning to one side? are your middle bits all congested?
Leave a comment and I will draw a winner by the end of the week.

L is for Lion and litres
I had a plan.
I was going to release
at least
two of these little friends every year.
But this is my first little alphabet animal for the year - number eight. I have 16 letters left to go. I think I'd better get moving because I find it hard to believe anyone will still be listening to me in 2024 !
He is completely hand sewn and suitable for beginners.
He just needs a final final final proof read and he should be available pretty soon.
Things are busy here as usual. I am working on two new pattern releases before the next lot of fabric arrives and the crazy market sewing takes over.
The hot water service went on the fritz,
The dog is limping
The bathroom ceiling has all but caved in with a massive roof leak.
The grandpuppy chewed the tap off the water tank so we have 5,000 litres of water trapped inside the tank.
When asked what could be done about it , the lovely plumber said.
"That's fixable but man, someone is going to get really wet"
Stay dry friends !

dudes - it was meant to be a giveaway
It really was meant to be a giveaway, but I got carried away sharing my angst with you all. Thanks for your comments about your lack of balance it makes me feel better to know that we are all listing to one side.
After I first found
Helen's blog
I bought a copy of her book and through no real fault of my own I may have ended up with two copies. (I blame red wine and Uncle Google.)
So, I have a copy of Simple Sewn Gifts to give away to you , along with four Fat quarters of Bunny Trail fabric.
(photo courtesy of
Helen's blog)
All you have to do is leave a comment on this post- tell me anything you like.
Actually tell me the first thing you think of when I say "sewing school".
There was a boy called Peter in my sewing class in year 8. In politically correct times we might say he exhibited inappropriate behavior, at 14 I can tell you he was a grabby little grub and I stuck him in the thigh with a quick unpick).
I spent a lot of time outside the textiles room 'thinking abut my behaviour'.)
The winner is Bluebird !!!!

Bunny Trail Fabric
helen philipps
peter was a shit
Tuesday, August 30, 2016
this is not where I was going
Some time ago I sent some of my Bunny Trail fabric to
n Philipps
Do you know Helen? I don't but I do follow her blog.
It is the prettiest blog in all of blogland, full of great photography and sewing and flowers.
Helen made a bundle of the cutest things with BunnyTrail - but I thought I had better wait until the fabric was actually available before I shared .
(The timing stuff with fabric design is bonkers )
Check out Lettuce - isn't she awesome ? You know how much I love a good name for a softie!
You should do yourself a favour and pop over and see the little quilt and the hexie ball as well as a great block that Helen made.
I have been glued to my computer for what feels likes weeks, finishing off two HUGE patterns. I have been working on another little alphabet friend, making suitcases, and watching the days fly by on the calendar.
I got an email this week asking me to teach in 2018 !!!! It totally fruck me out friends, and don't think it will surprise you to hear that I am failing at any semblance of a work/life balance these days. I keep saying things like "Oh it's just busy now because of the fabric, or because of market, or trade show"....but I think I need to realise it is always like this. this has become my normal.
How do you do it? Do you balance stuff?
If you run your own business, large or small- how do you stop working?
Even if you don't run a business, do you struggle with the elusive 'balance'that we all must have in our lives?
(Must we have it? Is it in fact haveable? Is is a crock of shit?)

Good morning mommies, boys, and girls!
Been busy lately, sorry I haven't been on much. Not a lot going on other than the usual, school, office, gym, etc. Things will get better...
So, I thought since we're only monthly now, it might be fun to get back to questions! Let's do a monthly one for now, if we're posting enough (I know, I know, I'm not posting a lot), maybe we could go to weekly within the month thread.
QOTM: What are your kids (and you, if you're dressing up) going to be for Halloween?
Well... BB has been totally into Star Wars, and we happened to see a Princess Leia slave costume, so we might go whole family themed again this year. BB would be Luke Skywalker, LB would be R2D2 (found an adorable costume!), I would be Princess Leia and DH would be Jabba the Hut. The hard part will be convincing BB to be Luke Skywalker - he's a little scared by the movies and thinks dressing as Luke will be scary... Will let you know how it pans out.
Gotta run!

A.C.A.R.E.S. stands for Arapahoe County Amateur Radio Emergency Services. We are one of the largest and fastest growing ARES groups in the state of Colorado. We are proud of the service we provide and are always looking for good people and new opportunities to serve our community. To see our upcoming events view our Calendar
Where were you on 09/11?
This is the 15th anniversary of the terrorist attack that has become to be known as simply 09/11. And while the focus of the tributes is appropriately on New York and the thousands of lives lost and lives saved by the many heroes that day, we should never forget the contributions here in our own back yard.
I was the Emergency Coordinator of Arapahoe County ARES at the time. I spent the evening of 9/11 in the Arapahoe County EOC after I finished work. I was surprised as to how few people were there considering what had just happened and the rumors that were going wild during that time (an example was that the building downtown called the World Trade Center was next to be targeted). The Undersheriff, the Emergency Manager plus one other deputy were the only ones there. The Undersheriff was planning security for a flight of much needed blood to be flown to New York. Otherwise, the county was quiet.
The following day, the calls started coming in. Since all flights out of DIA were grounded, shelters needed to be opened and communications were needed for these shelters. The Red Cross Communicators were understandably overwhelmed with requests for communicators.
The word went out to the district and many stepped up to help man the shelters. As we are all aware, extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures. ARES members did more than communicate. Many drove vans to pick up stranded passengers from DIA to transport them to shelters. Others helped out in the shelter doing other duties other than communicate.
The members I am most proud of went above and beyond. Some took the stranded passengers on tours of Denver. Some took stranded passengers to the movies. All ARES members made those stranded feel welcome here.
As ARES members, it is important to remember that the actions we take here will have a profound effect on the lives of citizens here but also have an effect on citizens around the country and around the world. Please remember that when we are called to assist either for a planned event or a disaster.
It certainly did on the days after 9/11.

Archive of Newsletters now online
N0POH provided us with some archived newsletters that we have posted now on a "Newsletters" page. These are definitely worth the read! They are historical, informative, and entertaining! It amazes me, especially as your new EC, how Alphonse Karr really hit the nail on the head when he said "The more things change, the more they are the same." If you have other newsletters or materials of interest to the history of Arapahoe ARES please send them to N2NWA or KD5DKQ.
D22 Newsletters from years gone by
Wayne, N0POH, was going through some files and found some newsletters dating from 1988 to about 2006 and has scanned them into a single 37 page PDF file that can be downloaded: D22 Newsletters 1988 to about 2006. Thanks to Wayne for scanning those for us!
ACARES Google Calendar
We have an online calendar for your reference that you can view or print out.
GoKit Presentation in PDF
As mentioned on the net this morning the GoKit PDF file is located at the bottom of the Admin -> ARES and COLORADO ARES FORMS page. The direct link for it is here: GoKit.pdf
146.640 Live Feed
The 146.640 Live Feed is online again. Our new house offers excellent coverage without the need for an external antenna so this will stay up "Live" during inclement weather. The link is here and can be found at the bottom of the Weather Links Module on the right side of this page. If I lose utility power the feed will go down and not come back up so let me know, EC at Arapahoe County ARES, if you find it offline or have any questions or comments.

National Emergency Communications Plan
The Department of Homeland Security just released The National Emergency Communications Plan. AuxComm is mentioned several times in the form of auxiliary communications resources or volunteers. Here is an example from page 80. "Likewise, volunteer organizations such as community emergency response teams and auxiliary communications volunteers (e.g., amateur radio operators; also called Hams) play key roles in emergency communications and preparedness." To download the PDF version click: 2014 DHS National Emergency Communications Plan.
National Interoperability Field Operations Guide
This copy was originally downloaded from the Safecom website and you may find the one below is better to use since Greg Pettis was kind enough to take the time to link and bookmark the pages for easier navigation on a PDA, smart phone, tablet or computer. It can be download via this link: National Interoperability Field Operations Guide v1.4
PDA Version of the AUXFOG
The Department of Homeland Security has released a PDA sized version of their Auxiliary Communications Field Operations Guide (AUXFOG) in PDF format.

Zones - Revisited April, 2015
Recently during our Weather Nets and other training's you have probably heard Net Control say he or she will take check ins by "Zones." The Zones they are referring to are as follows:
1. North of the Hampden Avenue Line and west of I-225
2. North of the Hampden Avenue Line and east of I-225
3. South of the Hampden Avenue Line and west of South Parker Road
4. South of the Hampden Avenue Line and east of South Parker Road
5. All areas east of Watkins Road
In the list above, each number is assigned to the Zone it describes. It is important that you know which Zone you are located in when calling in. Your information, particularly from weather nets, is conveyed back to the Sheriff's Department and our other served agencies in this geographical way to help them better understand the situation. A link to an annotated map is located in the Weather Links side bar. If you have any questions please let one of the Leadership Team members know. Their e-mail addresses can be found via the Leadership link on the menu above.

Technically, Simmon's high school is catty-corner from the town landfill, as opposed to being directly across from it, but BOOM anyway!
Similarly dominant like Orlando Pace was. It just plain sucks to be the guy opposite him because you're fighting a losing battle.
Can't wait to see him this fall!
Compare that to Mike Pettine's "Play like a Brown" motto. Cleveland finished 3-13.
Poop stains are brown. Mission accomplished...
Pretty sure Brady Hoke was more enthusiastic about $2 steaks than Harbaugh.
It worries me a bit that in every game this year, our opponents have stacked the line to stop the run. We really haven't seen a lot of slants and screens to counter that. It's kind of late to learn now, but it Urban I trust.
Just get the W and root for Penn State.
Go Bucks!
Having JT in provided the spark because of his ability to make the correct zone read option. How many times did he fake out the PSU defense and even the cameramen?
JT's running style is much more fluid and quick than Cardale's and we already know he can pass the ball well also - he just wasn't called upon very much to do so.
One of the things that raised so many eyebrows and dropped so many jaws last season was Cardale's tough running - even to the point of trucking a nose guard and many linebackers. I have not seen the same willingness to run tough from Cardale this year, except in rare circumstances. He seems to need a Devon Smith-type player to run under his bombs, which the Buckeyes don't really have yet this year.
Keeping Cardale in as starting QB makes it easier for teams to defend against the run because he is not recognized as quite as much of a threat. So far, he has had frequent misses and for whatever reason, disconnects on where the receivers are supposed to be or where he is supposed to be throwing. They're just not in sync and it has resulted in a lot of killed drives all season. Sadly, he hasn't helped himself with the NFL scouts this season.
On Saturday night, PSU kept Zeke in check for quite a while, until the running threat of TJ gashed them a few times, and then some passing options came open. It was much harder for PSU to know what was coming next and is much closer to what Meyer always wants to do with his teams.
Perhaps the injuries and suspensions and everything else that happened to our receivers really did make a huge difference to how the offense was set up, but going forward, I think JT needs to be the starter.
Seemed to me we were trying to be too cutesy too often. Trying to run to the outside much of the time, or force the ball to the playmakers.
We are a power run offense first, but not many of Zeke's runs were up the middle. When they did, he seemed to be getting good chunks of yardage. Then we would call something to the outside again, a false start and an incomplete pass or INT - and the drive was dead.
Also, the clock management at the end of the game was terrible. We should have ran much more time off the clock between plays.
We need to start having fun again. We're trying too hard. Go back to your sure thing (feed Zeke) and then open things up.
We will be fine, especially with the way the defense is playing.
Appreciate the sportsmanship. Brewer is a cool dude that makes you want to hang out with him. I like his attitude and how he (jokingly) said that we dodged a bullet after his collarbone was broken. Those are painful. Best of luck to him and let's hope the Hokies gobble up the remainder of their schedule and win out.
He kept saying "El Fine" instead of the proper "Elf Line"
Damned dirty
ape left footed punter!
Unless they bring Mike Ditka, it won't be nearly enough...
Let's hope Herbstreit learns how to say "Elflein" properly from here on out.
Good win Buckeyes. Lots to look forward to this year.
Nah...per quarter!
In the 2006 game, we were competitive - right up until Ginn got injured in a team celebration after his opening kickoff return for a TD. He was a huge part of the offense and not having his speed hurt us and made us much easier to defend. Troy Smith played bad after the long layoff.
I think the talent, the teamwork, the conditioning, the coaching and the tackling are better across the board for the 2015 team.
This should be fun to watch!
I think this is by far the best move Braxton could make. His arm talent and strength is not elite, but what he does in open space is off the charts elite.
And using him on returns will likely result in some TDs, which we haven't had in a while, for whatever reason.
Man, this is an exciting development!
The OSU police officer felt the same way when he got his job assignment protecting Urban F. Meyer!
As a little brother I can confirm the innate desire to compete favorably against big brothers. The ratings on Nick seem to bear this out as he appears to be better at the same point in his career.
I'm happy I'm not an opposing QB/RB/OL/OT/C/FB/HB/WR or TE. Bosa + Cooper = carnage and destruction.
The Boren family is another stellar example.
Go Bucks!
How excited am I for this 2015 Buckeye season?
11 on a 1-10 scale, because of ElevenWarriors. They are also an 11 on a 1-10 scale of excellent football/sports web sites.
Let's toot our alphorns to the theme of a certain cough drop here...
Nick Bosa!
This is a very interesting read, but I was hoping to see a mention about another very common thread among those suffering from depression, ADHD, anxiety, drug addiction, etc. - that is the use of mood altering drugs as a means of treatment. When a TV commercial spends 90% of the air time explaining the side effects (many of which are suicidal thoughts) and 10% of the time about what the product is supposed to do, you realize that big pharmaceutical companies are spending fortunes on advertising. That may be a reason why news reports never mention that virtually all of the mass shootings, the suicidal Lufthansa pilot, and scores of other tragedies involve the use of these drugs on people who appear to be more likely to commit acts against themselves or others. It also applies to many of our veterans, who are committing suicide at alarming rates.
That aside, we should strive to reduce the risks from concussions through safer equipment, but if you turn the game into flag football, then it loses a lot of its luster.
And notice how slow the sideline refs are. This is considered normal. The ref in Zeke's 85-yard run against 'Bama kept pace with him. Was he an SEC ref?
Is Mike Ditkat available?
As incredible as Zeke's 85-yard dash is (and it is indisputable), I'm always amazed at how fast the sideline ref was!
Coopers and Bosas and Raekwons, Oh My!
It's curtains for you, Rocky... Curtains!
Other QBs ain't got a chance!

I am new to colorwork also and I was having trouble as well seeing other color options but your choices are beautiful
did your gauge come out exactly like hers? Also did you actually color your own chart or did you just memorize which colors matched which of hers?
Yes, my gauge matched hers. I printed her color chart and in the margin I wrote which colors I was using for which symbols and that is making it easy for me to keep track.
Great colors, can't wait to see it finished. I have been having a lot of problems with color choice. I have a bag of very light colors and not sure if I will do the vest but, you have given me some ideas of what to do with my color choices, if I do decide to go for it. thank you Kathy

Israeli Defense Forces launched an artillery strike at Syrian army post Wednesday after an Israeli officer was wounded by fire from across the border.
The fighting between Syrian forces loyal to President Bashar Assad and opposition rebels took place at the strategic Quneitra crossing in the Syrian sector of the Golan Heights, where observers report the al-Qaeda affiliate, the al-Nusra front has won control.
The Israeli officer was lightly to moderately wounded after being shot in the chest. The 28 year-old military doctor is in stable condition.
Earlier in the day, Israel's military advised farmers in the Golan and other civilians to avoid the border with Syria as the fighting inside Syria intensified.
If radical Islamists have seized the Quneitra crossing, it could signal an increased threat to both military outposts and civilian communities inside Israel.

TravelPod Member ReviewsHard Days Night Hotel Liverpool
This hotel was wonderful. We stayed in a regular room and truly enjoyed the experience. The bed was comfortable and the food was great in the restaurant. This hotel was also quite central making its location ideal as well.

Historical Traveler Reviews Hard Days Night Hotel Liverpool
this hotel is lovely everything about it is great the porter we had was helpful polite as were all the staff.food excellent
rooms were amazing.
well worth a visit
Great stay, fantastic new hotel, brilliant bath products!!
I dont usually write reviews about hotels, but the Hard Days Night really left a great impression!
The room was modern, great bed! What I did find outstanding was the original bath products - I have never seen such products in any hotels which I have stayed in!! They were so unique and their smell was extraordinary. We had a bath truffle (I think thats what it is called!!), it dissolved in the bath and the whole bath was covered in rose petals - perfectly romantic for our Valentine's Day! Great idea - thanks the Hard Days Night!!
Will definately be staying again.
PS. I have found out that the bath products are from The Soapy Story. I have already ordered some for myself!
Great Hotel but some fine polishing needed
We stayed at this hotel for one night on the 23rd Feb.
Fantastic Hotel and great vibe as soon as you walk in - decor is stunning. Check in was a bit chaotic and the rooms weren't ready - some rooms weren't even ready at 5pm so they need to speed up that side of it.
Rooms are a good size and nicely decorated - but silly things let it down - the mini bar wasn't stocked, some of the lights did not work, there was no information in the room about the hotel - there is one tiny mirror on the desk and then a mirror by the door - but the lights don't work by the door so for a girl putting her make up on it is not ideal!! Plug sockets are not located well either.
the Music on the TV system is a good idea but you manage to play one song from a CD adn then it goes back to Hard Days Night - every time - can begin to drive you a bit insane.
The Bar Four is very nice but I think they need to try to bring in some kind of dress code for it as such or stop non residents coming in for a drink - quite a few very drunk men in football scarves and jeans weaving about and leering.
Once they sort out these few issues it will be sensational - fantastic location and fantastic decor just needs a bit of fine tuning
Neuf et propre
C'est un nouvel h�tel qui a tout le confort moderne. Son seul d�faut c'est qu'il est assez bruyant, vu qu'il se trouve dans un quartier �tudiant.
It's new and clean
A good hotel with all mod cons. the only down side is that it is quite noisy being in a studenty area
Quel hôtel !
On y est all�s le 9 f�vrier 2008, et c'est vraiment un h�tel g�nial ! C'est exactement de �a que Liverpool a besoin : un h�tel d�cent ! Tous les employ�s sont hyper disponibles, on n'a jamais l'impression de les d�ranger, et puis on a mang� au Blakes et c'�tait excellent, le service est extra, les chambres sont ce qui se fait de mieux... que dire d'autre ? �a vaut la peine d'y aller, nous on habite � Liverpool mais on voulait voir �a, vu que mon mari est fan des Beatles, et on y retournera ; moi �a m'a rendue fi�re d'�tre de Liverpool, on a d� attendre longtemps mais �a valait la peine.
What a hotel
we visited hotel on 9th feb 2008, it really does have the WOW factor! just what Liverpool needs a decent hotel, the staff all very friendly nothing was too much trouble, we ate in Blakes food excellent, and service great, room state of the art, what more can i say, worth a stay, we live in Liverpool but wanted to go for the experience as my husband is a Beatles fan, we will be visiting again, it made me proud to come from Liverpool, it was a long time comming but worth the wait.
L'éclate !
Excellent � tout point de vue. On y a pass� deux jours, � l'ouverture. C'est clair que le personnel a pass� pas mal de temps en formation : ils �taient tous au top, sympas et pr�sentaient bien.
Les chambres sont grandes et tr�s confortables, le restaurant nous a servi des steaks excellents et le bar a �t� en effervescence tout le week-end, plein de gens qui venaient jeter un oeil � l'h�tel.
Je suis super content de mon s�jour et je reviendrai s�rement.
Had a ball !!
Excellent in every way. We stayed for two nights on the day the hotel opened. It is very obvious that alot of time has been spent in training the staff as they were all top class, well presented and friendly.
The rooms are big and very comfortable, the restaurant served us a great steak and the bar was buzzing the whole weekend with people coming in the check the hotel out.
Thoroughly enjoyable stay and definately will be back.
What a place. After reading so much about the hotel we had high expectations for our stay on its opening night - it was FANTASTIC. An amazing atmosphere as you walking into the hotel's lobby, friendly staff were ready to give us the key, and escourt us to our deluxe room which we just couldn't fault. Top quality fixtures and fittings and even an electronic do not disturb sign by the bed! I'm well travelled but this is something I have never seen before. We had dinner in Blakes restaurant which was wonderful, delicious food and perfect service - I kept forgetting where i was. We then had drinks in Haris bar in the basement which such a unique drinking space and lovely cocktails. Then we were treated to a Beatles tribute band, then finished off the night in bar four on the ground level which was definitly the place to be seen in. Waitresses - you are hot! Breakfast the following morning again we couldn't fault, and the staff in reception helped us to arrange a private beatles tour which just rounded off our weekend. Thank you hard days night, we love the hotel and can't wait to come back. Liverpool you should be proud!

... watched them crawl into a trash can to grab a plastic tin of yogurt and lick the tin clean. They then grabbed a bottle of water and shook it dry of any remaining moisture. It was one of the most heart breaking things we have seen. So we went inside and got them each a package of crackers and each a bottle of water. These kids literally jumped up and down with joy. At home kids would complain to have to drink water as opposed to juice or soda, not the kids ...

... looks as though they are trying to revive the town although I am not sure I would want to spend a week on holiday myself in New Brighton. Each to there own I guess!
In the evening we headed into Liverpool to watch 'Let it Be', a show that has come straight from London's West End, showcasing the music of the Fab Four. With around 40 Beatles songs in the show it was pretty much non-stop hit after hit after hit. The audience were certainly up ...
... Cilla Black but last night at the restaurant at our hotel we had a lovely young lady, Abbie, as our waitress. She had a delightful accent but we could not understand a lot of what she was saying so Chris had to ask her to repeat herself on several occasions. She took it all with good humour and said she couldn't work out if we were New Zealanders of Australians because we all sound alike. We told her that we were Tasmanians - a different breed altogether.
... a point with only minutes remaining. The post game transport options were crowded and lacking so I decided to try and walk off the beers, curry wurst and chips so I made the 5km walk back into town. After a few more beers with my Egyptian roommates (not sure if they were being naughty Muslims or were Christian Egyptians????) it was time for bed after ticking off yet another items of my life ...
... a typewriter and snail mail. I loved doing this and all the incredible challenges of getting the information. I was very lucky that the ancestors in 1850 had the family researched and a book was written. Five copies of the book were published on the family beginnings back to William the Conqueror. There were 3 young brothers who were on their own and assumed the name of Comberbach.

"Fenway is the essence of baseball"
Fenway Park, in Boston, is a lyric little bandbox of a ballpark. Everything is painted green and seems in curiously sharp focus, like the inside of an old-fashioned peeping-type Easter egg. It was built in 1912 and rebuilt in 1934, and offers, as do most Boston artifacts, a compromise between Man's Euclidean determinations and Nature's beguiling irregularities. So wrote John Updike in his moving tribute to Red Sox legend Ted Williams -- an appropriately pedigreed account for this oldest and most fabled of ballfields that saw its first major league game played one century ago today. As a team in flux hopes to recapture the magic with an old-school face-off against the New York
Highlanders Yankees, it's hard to imagine the soul of the Sox faced the specter of demolition not too long ago. Now legally preserved, in a sport crowded with corporate-branded superdome behemoths, Fenway abides, bursting with history, idiosyncrasy, record crowds, and occasional song. [more inside]

I've been single for longer than I care to admit, but with the help of my friends and an active social life I've learned to be reasonably comfortable within my circumstances. Nevertheless I'd love to find a true partner, friend, and mate - someone to share the small and large moments, to enrich each other's day with art and creativity; someone to stay home with and travel with, to come home to and who wants to come home to me; someone to share silly jokes, good food, and comfort and support as we face the inevitable "tough" parts of Life together; someone who's smart and smart-assed, wise and goofy, and knows a thing or two about a thing or two; someone who's appropriately grown-up for her years yet is still willing to let her inner child come out and play.
I'll be forthright and say that I'm simply not interested in a long-distance relationship. If you don't live in Portland proper, best of luck in your continued search.
I think this sort of self-summarizing is impossible to do well. I've done my best to make my profile both flattering AND honest...but to get a truly clear idea of who I am, please check out my answers to OKCupid's questions before deciding to message me. If you still haven't clicked the Back button after that, I'd prefer to get to know each other over a beverage or snack.
("Don't sweat the petty stuff, and don't pet the sweaty stuff" -- George Carlin)
My tastes are so eclectic - i.e. "all over the map" - that it's tough to delineate them in a meaningful, nutshell way. I like fiction, non-fiction, and humor; foreign films and Hollywood movies and comedies; many sorts of music (though jazz remains my favorite, and I'm not a fan of pop, country, rap, or opera); and Portland's many amazing restaurants offering just about every kind of cuisine ... does that help?
Also, y'know, World Hunger and Climate Change and War and Equality and the Ultimate Fate of Humanity. And stuff.
- you're committed to honesty and communication
- you have a high tolerance for puns
- you don't have to love the Three Stooges, but you're okay with the fact that they WILL make me giggle inanely sometimes
- you enjoy a reasonably active lifestyle
- you enjoy being read to
- you're not a huge fan of hot weather / don't mind cooler temps
- you're not a "morning person"
- you're not into Harleys, NASCAR, and/or rodeos

Chiru Meets Sonia, Pleads for Hyderabad as Union Territory
By Express News Service - HYDERABAD
Published: 01st December 2013 08:52 AM
Last Updated: 01st December 2013 08:52 AM
Even though the Congress high command is not showing any signs of considering the demand to make Hyderabad a Union Territory post-bifurcation, Union minister from Seemandhra K Chiranjeevi is not ready to give it up.
The actor-turned-minister on Saturday knocked on the door of his party boss Sonia Gandhi and once again pleaded with her to accord UT status to Hyderabad at least for 10 years, during which the city will be joint capital of both the proposed states. Though nobody knows Sonia's response to his plea, Chiranjeevi later told mediapersons outside 10 Janpath that his party boss had lent him an ear.
Claiming that he had called on the AICC president on behalf of the Union Ministers from Seemandhra to make last-ditch efforts to realise their dream of making Hyderabad a UT with Assembly on the lines of Delhi post-bifurcation, the Union Minister exuded confidence that his boss would consider this demand positively.
"I am making all possible efforts to persuade our party high command to accord UT status to Hyderabad in return of our support to the T-Bill. Our party leadership is taking steps to introduce the T-bill in the winter session of Parliament," he said.
If UT status was accorded to Hyderabad Metropolitan Development Authority, it would facilitate easy administration in the joint capital, he said.
According to him, he had also pleaded with Sonia to keep Bhadrachalam with Seemandhra. On Rayala Telangana proposal, he said, "People and politicos of Rayalaseema should decide it."

Job openings rate in January 2005
March 16, 2005
On the last business day of January 2005, there were 3.3 million job openings in the United States, and the job openings rate was 2.4 percent.
In January, the job openings rate decreased for private industries overall and for government. The job openings rate fell in the West region, but showed little or no change in the other regions of the country.
The job openings rate trended upward from September 2003 through May 2004, then leveled off.
The job openings rate is the number of openings divided by employment plus job openings. A job opening requires that a specific position exists and there is work available for that position, work could start within 30 days regardless of whether a suitable candidate is found, and the employer is actively recruiting from outside the establishment to fill the position.
These data come from the Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey. The above data are seasonally adjusted. Data for January 2005 are preliminary and subject to revision. Find additional information in "Job Openings and Labor Turnover: January 2005" (PDF) (TXT), USDL 05-431.

Darrell Arthur has a broken fibula and is will be out up to 6 weeks.
Weird thread
John Wall will miss 8 weeks for the Wizards. Speaking of the Wizards, Nene is recovering from plantar fasciitis in his left foot.
Hopefully the rest-and-rehab works and Wall won't need to have surgery. It will be enough for the Wizards to be without Wall for the first month of the season.
Here's a shocker: Eric Gordon will be limited in camp due to knee soreness.
Royce White isn't at the Rockets' camp due to anxiety issues.
Hopefully this won't be something that plagues him throughout his career, but that could well be the case.
Update on Royce White. He and the Rockets have reached an agreement where White will purchase a bus (and assume liabilty on it) and drive to and from games as often as possible. I hope it works out at least to the point where if White can play in the NBA, his anxiety won't hold him back.
Roger Braille is on the inactive list due to a busted attitude. Injury happened some time last season and got progessively worse. As no improvement has been noted, it is thought this may be career-ending.

2) If it isn't categorized as a FPS then what are you complaining about...you started whining about how it is categorized as an FPS and then go on a mission to prove it isn't an FPS...
But if you want to play that game
google "metroid prime FPS" and you will get similar links saying how it is an FPS. And an article from Play magazine where they said "Corruption could be the "biggest revolution in FPS gaming since Halo".

LOL! I've never heard of you, so we should not listen to anything you say. >_>Originally Posted by vagrant
Because Halo is a FPS, so if Metroid Prime is not a FPS then they are hardly comparable. The 'revolution' spoken of refers strictly to the control scheme. I highly doubt Metroid Prime will make any advances on Halo's position as a highly competitive, multiplayer game.Originally Posted by vagrant
people compare zelda and redsteel all the time.
in fact, people compare the wii to xbox 360 all the time.
i'll compare whatever i want to whatever i want to compare it to, damnit!

And for vagrant, since you wanted a more reputable source:
Retro Studios never wanted this game to be placed in the same bucket as other gamers like Halo. Reviewers have noted that Metroid Prime's final score varies depending on whether you classify it as a FPS or an adventure.Originally Posted by IGN
Exactly. It isn't written down as an FPS because the developer doesn't want it to be. But unfortunately for them, they don't define the genre.
"First-person shooter (FPS) is a genre of video games which is characterized by an on-screen view that simulates the playable characters perspective and a focus on the use of rangeweapons such as guns. "
Metroid was originally an Adventure game so they don't want to change that.
But it is still an FPS by definition.

Do you believe that Halo and Metroid Prime are in direct competition with one another?
If you read all the posts in the thread prior to posting you would know the answer to that.Originally Posted by Buzz
Halo = Multiplayer game that had a single player campaign just for the sake of story.
Metroid = Single player game that might have an online multiplayer in the next game.

That is why they should not be compared at all. If a player is looking for an excellent group game then Halo should fit the bill. If a player is looking for a rich single-player experience then Metroid Prime 3 will fit the bill. They do not compete on any front except each other's biggest weaknesses. You will never hear someone say they'd rather play Metroid Prime than Halo as a group (unless Metroid Prime just came out and all are extreme fans that want to see how it turns out; at that point, it wouldn't matter how good Halo is anyway).

We Are the Borg
"Is Google God?" asked New York Times columnist Thomas Friedman a while back, and it appears the verdict is in. Last week's launch of Google Maps whipped up a chorus of geekish hosannas so devout you half expect to get to the site and come face-to-face with Christ on a Segway. That the actual content turns out to be, well, MapQuest, basicallyflashier, more user-friendly, but the same familiar product in every way that mattersonly underlines the point. Gearheads aren't loving Google Maps so much for what it does as for what it confirms: Google's accelerating transformation from mere search engine into the next best thing to deitya collective, universal memory.
Seriously. Even before Google's IPO bathed the company in cash, founders Larry Page and Sergey Brin were vowing "to make all of the world's information accessible to anyone with a Web browser," and Page was openly contemplating how cool it would be to have a Google chip implanted in your brain. Post-IPO, the company has launched a slew of expansions, among them Google Video (TV programs searchable by closed-caption text), Google Desktop Search (sift through your own hard drive), and the ambitious Google Print (love child of a recent deal to digitize and index the contents of half a dozen major university libraries). Wherever will it end? Google Public Surveillance Cams? Google Personal Genome Maps? Google Where the Fuck Are My Keys? Even that brain chip idea isn't sounding so wacky anymore. Google has already become a kind of mental prosthesis, lazily relied on for feats of recall until it comes to feel as much a part of our minds as not. And this too might be taken as a sign of Google's incipient divinityexcept that some of us don't even get that intimate with God.

TV Review: 'True Blood' makes an anemic Season 5 return
Too many characters, too many plotlines and minimal intrigue mar the HBO vampire dramedy
It's probably appropriate that "True Blood" makes me say and do and write stupid, out-of-character things.
Like last summer, when I reviewed the fourth season premiere, I briefly convinced myself that it was totally OK that "True Blood" was a glib, bloody, utterly soulless enterprise, because Alan Ball didn't aspire to make a series of substance. I even took the blame upon myself and wrote, "I am at fault for wanting 'True Blood' to be more than it is."
I wrote those words, but it wasn't true. "True Blood" is at fault for not even being a good version of what it aspires to be, which is doubly bad, because what it aspires to be is so low-brow and trashy. And by failing to be effectively and deliciously low-brow and trashy, "True Blood" has had the odd effect of activating an inner puritanical streak that I didn't know I possessed.
Last season, during the sixth or seventh lackluster sex scene between Sookie Stackhouse and Eric Northman, I actually found myself thinking, "Geez, maybe it's time for Anna Paquin to put on some clothing."
Those thoughts are not in character. Why would I ever think that? Why would Alan Ball want to make me think such awful thoughts?
Early in Season 5, during a sequence in which a newly born vampire zips around a house at accelerated speed, upending lamps and knocking over furniture, I actually found myself musing, "Geez. It's going to take a long time to clean up this mess."
I'm not Martha Stewart. I'm not an especially neat person. And no matter how much of a mess is made on-screen in "True Blood," nobody is ever going to force me to restore order. And yet, in lieu of providing material for my enjoyment, Alan Ball triggered my vicarious OCD tendencies.
Put a different way, what "True Blood" has managed to do, after four-plus seasons, is deaden my appetite for chaos and haphazard anarchy.
A show about the most primal and basic of human desires has battered my poor, defenseless Id into submission.
If you hated the fourth season of "True Blood," with its overacting witches, neutered Erics and less-than-engaging Shifters, I'm here to provide the saddest of warnings: It doesn't get better.
[More after the break...]
Coming off a season that I sense was largely disliked by even dedicated fans -- I base that sense on exactly how few people popped up on the blog to disagree with my evisceration of the last finale last summer -- "True Blood" was in desperate need of a speedy return to form. Already on Twitter, my preliminary reaction to the season has been greeted by several people saying, "I'm only giving the show a few more episodes." Any viewer hoping for a speedy and efficient resetting of the creative table will be woefully disappointed.
The season could end after Episode 4 and there isn't a single storyline that I'd be sad to see truncated, a single question I'd be disappointed to have go unanswered.
The first four episodes of Season 5 find "True Blood" at its most directionless and meandering. Despite using nearly the full hour for each episode -- padded by "True Blood" standards -- Ball and his team of writers haven't generated enough forward narrative momentum to fill even a single episode. A show which, at its best, was compulsively watchable junk food has become so glutted with uninteresting characters and ill-conceived story arcs that the four episodes moved with a glacial, jittery stop-and-start lurch.
It's here that readers who found this review only on Google are preparing their, "If you hate the show so much, why do you keep watching?" comments. Save yourself the time. I write about pop culture. It's my job. I don't get to choose what media folks are consuming and I don't think that there's any point in only paying attention to the things that I love. If "True Blood" is in the collective conversation, I want to be able to take part in that conversation, even if my role is an under-my-breath grumble.
And also, as I keep insisting, with the proper ratio of Jessica/Pam/Eric/Lafayette-to-Everybody Else, "True Blood" was once able to be a show that amused me. It's not that show anymore. It may never have been that show, even if the ratio has sometimes been more in my preferential favor.
Accepting and acknowledging that people who love "True Blood" already either stopped reading or stuck around only to leave hostile comments at the bottom, I'm going to break the rest of this review into a series of questions and answers that cover the basis that most people -- fans or hate-watchers -- want to know. If there are any other questions you have, I can add to this review. I aim to please!
Note that there are going to be *some* spoilers here.
What's happening this season, plot-wise?
Nothing. Lots of vampire bureaucracy. You remember Eric and Bill's problems with the Vampire Authority? There's a lot more of that, as well as a lot more of the two characters standing around together as they ponder a group of extremist vampires who believe that people are cattle. Terry's finally returned to his Iraq War PTSD. Jason's returned to feeling like a himbo and wishing people would take him more seriously. A few characters have finally realized and begun to get resentful of the lengths everybody goes to keep Sookie alive. Jessica's throwing frat parties, Pam's having flashbacks and there are ripples from what happened with Debbie and Tara in the finale.
Is Tara off the show, permanently?
No, silly.
When it comes to Alan Ball and his writing staff, perhaps no criticism is more clear and damning than their utter lack of creative ruthlessness with characters. This is a world in which vampires and other monstrous creatures are constantly prowling the countryside noshing on civilians, but our core cast remains impervious to The True Death. "True Blood" has become a show without any gravity and without any stakes because fans know that the writers are too weak to kill off core characters, even when they ceased to serve any purpose dozens of episodes ago. The show's solution to characters it doesn't know how to deal with has always been to just add more characters and let the established characters meander like zombie, zombies being one class of the undead yet to make an appearance on "True Blood." The gutlessness has progressed to a point where very few of the characters are interesting enough for their deaths to make any impact anyway. There were moments were an Andy or a Hoyt or a Tara or a Sam could have died and the emotional ripples could have lifted the show out of its moribund rut, but that time has passed.
So no. Tara's not dead. "True Blood" only kills off people you don't care about (and "hating" is still caring, Tara-haters).
Which of these plotlines were you LEAST interested in?
Oooh, that's a tough one. It's been a long time since I've cared about anything involving Sam. Lafayette pouting is pretty much a waste of everything great about Lafayette. Terry's war trauma may become fascinating eventually, but through four episodes it's a distraction that has literally no connection to any of the other characters, which makes it an impediment to smooth storytelling. The Jason stuff is a rehash of stuff they've done multiple times with that character. And as much as I like Chris Bauer, there's no compelling reason why Andy has to be involved with anything anymore. Oh and self-pitying Sookie isn't all that great either. There's too much going on on this show and without a demonstrable "A" story, there's equal worth given to "F" and "G" storylines which shouldn't be considered equal.
What's happening this season, subtext-wise?
Nothing, silly. Alan Ball insists that any allegory or satirical value you get from "True Blood" is a coincidence, which is convenient because it spares him from making any kind of coherent argument. So we've got our 20th or 30th different variation on hollow mockery of religious fundamentalism. Check. Fundamentalism... bad. Moving on?
It's not really subtext, but perhaps the only thing I enjoyed about these early episodes was the exploration of the sire bond between a vampire and his or her maker. We've seen how emotional this connection can be, but especially in the third and fourth episodes, there's some real depth.
Who's new and are they any good?
Scott Foley dropped in for last the finale as one of Terry's old war buddies and through four additional episodes, he hasn't been given anything to do. Playing a particularly powerful vampire, Chris Meloni doesn't appear until the second episode, but at least he's having fun, so I don't want to take anything away from him. Meloni's joined by a cadre of recognizable actors on the Authority council, including The Swede from "Hell on Wheels," Doctore from "Spartacus" and Barb from "Cougar Town." There's an attractive new vampire played by Lucy Griffiths and several family members to previously established characters and Salome -- Yes, THE Salome. That's a lot of new characters on top of our full returning cast and old friends like Steve Newlin and The Prospect of Russell Edgington.
Surely The Triumphant Return of Russell Edgington helps?
Here's one of those spoilers I don't mind providing, because I fear that there really are people out there who will be lured to watch "True Blood" by how sublimely awesome Denis O'Hare was in Season 3: In the first four episodes, Russell Edgington is on screen for less than five seconds. So I view this as less of a spoiler and more of a warning. If you're sticking around praying Russell is going to be a heart-removing life-vest for the series, you could drown before salvation arrives.
Sigh. Bottom line: Who gets naked?
I could be wrong about this, but I think that of the regular cast members, male and female, we see the most flesh from Bauer. That's Chris Bauer, not Kristin Bauer van Straten. I think that's all you need to know. OK. Fine. Meloni takes his shirt off. But Manganiello doesn't.
I'm going to keep watching, but I probably won't check in again in blog form until the finale. HitFix's Geoff Berkshire will be doing weekly recaps and I'm confident he likes the show more than I do, if only because he probably couldn't like it less.
Maybe Russell Edgington really WILL save the show when he makes his full-fledged return? Maybe Christopher Meloni's character will get out of the boardroom and wreak havoc? Maybe Terry's storyline will become the "True Blood" equivalent of "Generation Kill"? Maybe the writers will decide to do an entire episode that's all Deborah Ann Woll? Maybe the writers will remember why Lafayette was great, back in the day? Maybe Jason Stackhouse will get funny again?
One can always hope.
I wonder how much worse "True Blood" looks coming off of a second mostly exceptional season of "Game of Thrones." Seeing an HBO drama that successfully blends low-brow, potentially exploitative elements with high dramatic aspirations all within a familiar genre context and featuring a cast of dozens only puts a harsher glare on the HBO drama that fails in every way to do the same.
But that's unfair to "True Blood," which fails because it fails, not because "Game of Thrones" succeeds. And it's probably the subject for a totally different essay/review.
"True Blood" returns to HBO on Sunday, June 10.

Chrome OS: Google's Chromium Arrives (Gallery)
The source code for Chrome OS, alias Chromium, the Linux-based operating system developed by Google, is now ready for download.
Having been announced months ago and followed up by many questions as to features, availability and supporting companies, Google's Chrome OS has now officially stepped into the operating system market. At first glance the completely Web- and browser-based platform doesn't quite meet expectations in terms of the great revolution it promised.
Google primarily sees its operating system deployed on secondary systems. In a webcast to accompany the launch, netbooks were all the talk. Google promises that devices running Chromium will be out by end of 2010. The devices should be somewhat larger than the usual netbooks with their maximum 12" display and should have a complete keyboard.

TAMPA, Fla. (AP) - Joe Jurevicius left the New York Giants and agreed to a four-year contract with Tampa Bay, giving the Buccaneers a receiver coming off his best season.
Jurevicius was an unrestricted free agent and New York had hoped to re-sign him. The 6-foot-5, 230-pound receiver also drew interest from New England, St. Louis and Denver.
"To have an opportunity to play for Jon Gruden, one of the pre-eminent offensive coaches in the league, is a dream come true," the receiver's agent, Neil Cornrich, said Tuesday. Cornrich declined to discuss financial terms of the contract.
Jurevicius had been the Giants' No. 3 receiver. He appeared in 58 games and had 102 receptions for 1,442 yards and five touchdowns in four seasons. He started nine games last season and finished with career highs in catches (51), yards (706) and TDs (3).

This got mixed reviews at our house. Hubby didn't like it at all and everyone else thought it was OK. I followed the recipe exactly as written.
I made this for dinner tonight. It was ok. DH asked for more gravy and more cheese. I added more garlic salt for additional flavor.
I made this on 8/27/08 for mine and my SO's dinner.Since there was only two of us, the recipe was adjusted accordingly. I did have to make a couple of substitutions, since I didn't have exactly what was called for.Breaded chicken fillets were used instead of the patties and, for the cheese, havarti was used instead of swiss.This was really a very quick and easy recipe that had a very pleasing taste and will be made again. Thank you for posting and, "Keep Smiling :)"
