Jim Cramer is a popular if not controversial financial pundit. Investors seem to either love and follow the Mad Maestro of Mad Money or dismiss him as a huckster prone to hyperbole. Personally, I generate my own investment ideas but find Mr. Cramer very good at ascertaining what sectors are seeing momentum as well as occasionally coming up with an original and actionable investment thesis.
One of these I have used many times to find successful equity investments is the concept of the "accidental high yielder." This involves a stock that is not usually thought of as a dividend play but thanks to a recent decline in the stock, they have become stocks that yield 3% or 4%. I have found when these types of stocks reach this type of a high and sustainable dividend yield; quite often, it means a bottom could be forming and the new direction for the stock is up.
One such opportunity now exists in a beaten down retailer. Coach (NYSE:COH) has declined some 40% from recent highs due to several missteps and robust competition from the likes of Michael Kors (NYSE:KORS). At these levels, this retailer is yielding just under four percent (3.9%). There are other reasons I believe the stock has probably seen the worse of the pull back and should move up from here for patient investors.
The shares after their decline sell for less than 11 times its trailing earnings compared to average 17.8 times over the past five years. In addition, the company has a strong balance sheet with no net debt and over $550 million in net cash on the books.
Change in Sentiment:
The retail sector underperformed the overall market in the first half of the year. However, job and economic growth are starting to accelerate after a dismal performance in the first quarter. This renewed growth should buoy consumer confidence and spending helping sentiment on the sector.
Investors are already seeing this improvement in sentiment starting to be reflected in the sector. Three other beaten down retailers, Bed Bath & Beyond (NASDAQ:BBBY), PetSmart (NASDAQ:PETM) and even Lululemon (NASDAQ:LULU) have been very strong over the past couple of trading sessions in addition to the bounce over that time span from Coach. (See Chart).
Bed Bath & Beyond has struggled along with Coach over the past few months. PetSmart's bounce was aided by Jana Partners disclosing an almost 10% stake in the pet retailer this week. Other activists targeting Coach could be a possibility that could act as a positive catalyst as these funds could easily be attracted to Coach's brand and operational cash flow, which is still strong.
I am willing to take a chance that the decline in Coach is over while mitigating risk. I bought the shares Thursday for $35.25 a share and have a stop order in at $33.50 a share. This is a dime above the level it recently bounced off of and the shares would yield over 4% at that level which should also act as a floor.
Fashion is fickle and is why niche retailers can be volatile over time. I am willing to make a small bet that Coach will get its act together over time. Hopefully, it will stage a comeback like Deckers Outdoor (NASDAQ:DECK) did when I profiled it just over two years ago when it was struggling. The stock has basically doubled over that time frame. If I am wrong, I have my stop in to keep my losses to minimal levels. In the meantime, I am happy to collect my almost four percent yield.

Marxism is a political, social, and economic philosophy derived from the work of the 19th-century historians Karl Marx and Friedrich Engels. It views human history as a struggle between social classes and asserts that capitalism is inherently exploitative. Marxism advocates a "revolution of the proletariat" in which the working class will seize political power internationally and establish new societies based on collective ownership. In the 20th century, communist governments, such as those in the Soviet Union and China, declared their adherence to the principles of Marxism. However, Marx himself never described a specific operational form of government based on his philosophy.

Kentucky is two wins away from becoming the first undefeated team in college basketball since Indiana in 1976.
Quinn Buckner and his teammates from that perfect Hoosiers team will be watching Kentucky anxiously this weekend, but they aren't hoping the Wildcats lose — they want to see the Wildcats pull off their own undefeated season.
MORE: UK's season of supremacy | Calipari stands by ND comments | Comparing the Final Four's recruiting classes
"These are young people who have a terrific opportunity to do something great," Buckner said, according to The Associated Press. "I think for me and my teammates, it's hard to pull against young people."
Several teams have had undefeated regular seasons since 1976, but none of those teams cut down the nets at the end of the NCAA Tournament like those Hoosiers did.
Members of the 1976 team said they are impressed that a group of younger players have showed so much poise throughout the season.
"We had a lot of years to get right what our coach (Bob Knight) wanted us to get right," former Hoosiers guard Bobby Wilkerson said. "These guys have had one or two years, most of them, to get right what coach (John) Calipari wants them to get right, which is a cool accomplishment, because we needed all the coaching we could get."
Kentucky narrowly escaped with a 68-66 win against No. 3 seed Notre Dame last week and will now face fellow No. 1 seed Wisconsin on Saturday in the Final Four. If the Wildcats get past the Badgers, they will look to secure perfection next Monday night in the national championship game against Duke or Michigan State.

You've heard the story before: Boy meets girl, girl meets boy, and by the time they realized something special might be there, it was all too late. But of course, since this is the 21st century, romantic hopefuls still flock to Craigslist.org's Missed Connections section to either post or find an ad looking for each other. Now, there's a site to help make that process a little easier.
Luke DuBois, a digital media professor at Polytechnic Institute of NYU and the Brooklyn Experimental Media Center, created an algorithm to expedite the process of finding those who might have posted about each other on Missed Connections. The unnamed site plays Cupid by scouring the section from nine major cities and running through those posts to compare word matches from different listings in the same city. If the highlighted words deem to be a close match, users are sent to the original listings and suggested to e-mail the authors in hopes that the person just might be the sweetheart they've been searching for.
"Simple words like 'of' and 'the' have a very low score; nouns and verbs like 'train' and 'kiss' have a medium score; adjectives and adverbs like 'blue' and 'softly' have a high score," DuBois explained on the site. "Proper names like 'kevin' and 'chelsea' will score highest of all."
To date, the professor has alerted eight potential couples scoring above 85 percent, including a man who met the girl of his dreams while eating salami. The girl posted another ad looking for him, recalling that he had bummed one of her cigarettes. It has yet to be confirmed if these matches were actually successful.
In theory, the site sounds like a ingenious idea and certainly should increase the chances of finding Missed Connection matches. However, the algorithm does come with some flags. Since DuBois aimed it to be a community experiment, the site's interface looks like an 8-bit introduction screen for a vintage video game. The program cannot sift between spam and real listings, and can also run slow since the hosting isn't meant for a mass audience. The human aspect of how people use Craigslist also affects the algorithm, as women tend to remember smaller details and write more descriptively than their male counterparts. In general, Missed Connections posts also run on the shorter side, making a computer-operated search that much more difficult.
"You have to hope that someone is out there looking for you as well," Julie Spira, an online dating expert told The Brooklyn Paper. "If you're going to post something on 'Missed Connections,' look for them on LinkedIn or Facebook too, but don't come across as a stalker. Make your communication light and easy."
Will you be the next to have a Missed Connection alert sent to you? Test the site out yourself, which currently covers New York, San Francisco, New Orleans, Phoenix, Providence, Denver, Vancouver, Belfast and London.

Professor calls for a new branch of learning
Nanotechnology, the 'science of small things' is set to bring huge advantages in engineering, electronics, medicine and IT-- but the potential threats to health that widespread use of nanoparticles could bring need to be scrutinised, says a University of Edinburgh expert in this month's edition of Occupational and Environmental Medicine.
Professor Ken Donaldson, a lung toxicology expert and Professor of Respiratory Medicine at the University, calls for a new discipline--nanotoxicology-- to be built up, to address knowledge gaps and to help develop a safe nanotechnology. He wants guidelines to be developed to test all materials in the nanoscale where human health could be involved.

George H. Smith on Libertarianism: What Everyone Needs to Know
George H. Smith (of Atheism: The Case Against God fame, among other works) starts a commentary on my recent book Libertarianism here.
His overall take is positive:
With the recent publication of Jason Brennan's Libertarianism: What Everyone Needs to Know comes a new addition to my list of recommended introductory texts[…] Brennan — Assistant Professor of Ethics, Economics, and Public Policy at Georgetown University, and a contributor to the Bleeding Heart Libertarianism website—has given us a splendid introduction to libertarianism.
This quotation is instructive:
I remain reluctant to review Brennan's book. Why? Because I agree with most of it, and to compile a laundry list of its many merits would quickly become tedious, at least for me and possibly for many of my readers, most of whom are already libertarians.
The reason it's instructive is that Smith is what I dub (for the purposes of the book) a "hard libertarian", while I'm what I like to call a "new classical" or "neoclassical liberal". Still, while we might have different moral foundations, or perhaps we might describe our moral foundations differently, we end up agreeing on a large range of issues.
In his review, he raises two main issues:
- How should we define "libertarianism"?
- Who are these so-called "neoclassical liberals", and why, after so many years in the liberty movement, hasn't he met any of them?
Regarding 1: I decided to use the term broadly, to include all classical liberals, and used the neologism "hard libertarian" to describe natural-rights, deontological libertarians. Smith prefers to use the term in a more narrow sense. Libertarians are the radical branch of classical liberalism.
Regarding 2: I'm not part of a "liberty movement" myself. I'm just an academic at a research university who does some public intellectual-type stuff on occasion. Anecdotally, though, the young people I meet who describe themselves as libertarian tend not to be Rand or Smith-style "hard libertarians", but tend to have the very moral concerns that constitute what I call "neoclassical liberalism". As far as I can tell, hardly any academic libertarians–and there are lots of them–are "hard libertarians". In the 70s, libertarians seemed to be of the "Social justice? Pssshah!"-type. But the libertarians I talk to now tend to say, "If you claim to care about social justice, why the hell are you so Marxist?"-type. At any rate, for the past few decades, the action in libertarian thinking in the academy has almost all been in what I call neoclassical liberalism.
It does not follow from the fact that X can correctly argue: "If you believe in Theory A you should recognize it does not lead to the conclusions you think it does" that X must believe himself in Theory A. Noting that Rawls' conception of social justice does not lead to a redistributive State is a worthwhile argument to make, but it doesn't require believing in Rawls' conception of social justice. To believe Rawls' theory, one would, among other things, have to clarify where Nozick's multiple criticisms fail. To actually believe in social justice one would have to clarify exactly where Hayek went wrong in arguing the concept is meaningless. To actually believe in positive rights, one should be candid enough to provide clear examples of what negative rights one would be willing to violate in order to provide the positive rights one thinks exist.

To Walthamstow with the EDL to protest against the islamisation of this London district, formerly part of Essex, which with Leyton and Chingford form the London Borough of Waltham Forest. The many reasons to do so were covered here, last month.
The original request was for a march to leave Walthamstow Central Station, marching north up Hoe Street, past the top of the famous Walthamstow High Street Market, turning right at Bell Corner into Forest Road and thence to a site by the Town Hall and Assembly Rooms for a rally and speeches. The Town Square is in use as a large screen public viewing area for the Paralympics.
The authorities said no. Instead the EDL agreed to muster at Kings Cross in north London (as happened last year for the Tower Hamlets demo) then travel by tube to Blackhorse Road (one stop on the Victoria line from Walthamstow Central) then a march the length of Forest Road, crossing the Bell corner junction on the way to the Town Hall.
I decided to start at Walthamstow Central to see what was happening at the rally by We Are Waltham Forest in support of multiculturalism. This was due to begin on the Arcade Site opposite the Town Square at 11am and they had been promising choirs, music and celebration etc. for weeks.. The Arcade site used to contain a rather good shopping arcade; this was pulled down and is now concreted over while the council wrangle about which redevelopment deal will pay them the best backhanders.
To my surprise (not) the Town Square was given over to a large political rally featuring the usual suspects – Socialist Worker, the Socialist party, various trades Unions, and Solidarity with Palestine. A sound stage and PA system drowned out the Paralympic commentary which many people still endeavoured to watch.
These photographs show a selection of the sorts of groups taking part.
I didn't catch this woman's name but I believe her to be a trade union official from a Public Service union – from her cherry pink tabard I suppose that she is a dinner lady. Her speech criticised the EDL as football hooligans and thugs – racists. Do not be fooled, she said. They say they are not but they are made up of the core of the old British Nazi Party – the old National Front. And if you do not believe what they have in store for us look at Europe. Look at Marine le Pen in France. Look at Sweden where they have Nazis in Parliament again. And it is not just the EDL that we are against. We are against those politicians who are letting this happen. David Cameron HOW DARE YOU CRITICISE MULTICULTURALISM. She is proud to stand with her Muslim brothers and sisters.
Ladies and gentlemen, fresh from their triumphant politically correct re-writing of English history at the Olympic opening ceremony, we present, on drums, the Tolpuddle Martyrs.
This young man claims that he was born in Waltham Forest, not 15 minutes from this site. Which begs the question why doesn't he have the local accent? Notice that Costa Coffee did a roaring trade.
An announcement that the rally was to line up ready to march was rescinded, come back we are not ready to go yet.
I decided to walk to Forest Road to see the EDL coming along. I passed the Arcade Site. There was a belling ringing demonstration in aid of the Parish church and the choir Waltham Forest Voices were singing very sweetly about Sunshine in your Life to an audience of 5 people. That was a shame, but bashing the fash obviously held more appeal.
I walked along Forest Road until I could see the march in the distance. The police were clearing the pavements and after being moved along several times I took an officer's direction that behind the railings of the garden surrounding the William Morris gallery was an acceptable and safe place for me.
After the march passed, progress being rather slow, I decided to slip down some side streets and get ahead of them as I wanted to see them pass Bell Corner. I came up Hoe Street to find that the WAWF rally had been allowed the Hoe Street route to march and they were blocking the junction. I found out later that missiles, bottles and bricks had been thrown at the EDL and WAWR had sat down blocking the street. The EDL were taken along some back streets crossing Chingford Road behind the Bell and reaching the Town Hall by a side entrance.
The police had the way forward completely blocked so I tried to reach the Town Hall down more of the little back streets. Many individuals of the WAWF had the same idea.
The main body of their counter demonstration were then moved by the police to a space to the front of the Town Hall, which the EDL were at the side. I have heard that the stage had to be dismantled due to more flying missiles and there were no speeches. It was expected that speeches would be made by Tommy Robinson, Kev Carroll, Paul Weston, and a Walthamstow resident. Down the back streets the students and teacher looking types started to drift away, dumping their flyers and placards in hedges, on the floor, anywhere as they did so.
Their place was taken by car loads of young men many in Islamic dress. I managed to get in front of the Town Hall but again the police blocked both the road and the pavement and were letting no one through.
I went back the way I came but turned left earlier and found myself right opposite the Bell. This is how the area was left.
Hoe Street was blocked and WAWR were contained behind a row of police vans.
You can see the unholy alliance of Islam and Trade Unionists.
Weyman Bennet leader of the SWP tries to pick up another dinner lady.
Gradually more and more young men arrived. Some had taken the card off their placards and were brandishing the sticks. As fast as police were confiscating the sticks more young men and boys appeared. They shook their sticks at the police, jeering.
The EDL march could be seen in the far distance crossing Chingford Road on their way back to Blackhouse Road Station.
Allah Akbar – it's time for prayer – and if the road is closed – use it.
I didn't like the atmosphere and decided it was time to leave. Making my way up the hill more and more young men with sticks were coming down. By the time I got to my car the police helicopters were circling above and I could hear sirens. I left at 6pm and got home at 7pm. At the time of writing this it is 9.30 and I read that the EDL have been held at Blackhorse Road all this time. Members of the Underground Train drivers union are believed to have refused to drive the trains to take them to the dispersal point.
At 10.30 I am told that many have been arrested under the new favourite police trick 'potential breach of the peace' taken in vans to outlying police stations at the very edges of the Metropolitan area, and de-arrested to make their way home with difficulty.

Thank you for that very detailed and interesting - and disturbing - account.

i am a partner of one of the edl members and I can confirm that they were held by the police for numerous hours which resulted in their bus leaving without them,. They are now looking for alternative ways to get home. I hope they all get home safely.

I'll start at the begining. I arrived at Kings Cross at around 11 am, met up with some familiar faces and we went to the dolphin pub for a drink.
At 12 we left for the tube station to catch our ride to Blackhorse Rd station, good atmos. Left station and was corraled by the police until all had arrived. We were than marched in fits and bursts towards the demo point. Police had to clear the road ahead of us of muzzies and unwashed UAF types. Nearing our rally point we came under attack from missle (Bricks bottles etc) so mthe police diverted us down a side road. where we were kettled for several hours without toilet facilities, not a pretty sight while 3-400 muslim youths were pelting the stage with more bricks etc causing the stage to be taken down while tempers started to flare in frustration.
Some of the lads attempted to charge the police causing the cops to baton several skulls. A while later Kevin Carroll turned up and explained to us that we would be heading back to the tube station (And he looked none too happy about this). The walk back to the station took a couple of hours as the police had to clear the Muslim defence league scumbags ahead of us.
Upon reaching the station we saw it was blocked off the a combination of UAF and MDL so the police marched down a side road where we were kettled again with toilets, until around 10 pm. The police called a section 60 and we were all searched had our details taken for the police national computer handcuffed and bundled into various police vehicals/buses 1 EDL to 1 cop and dropped off at kings cross where we were de-arrested and told to go home. This is a new tactic by the police, we think it was to get us so pissed off that we wont go on future demos.

It's a shame! Who, yes , who was violent, hypocrite, divisive that day? Not, definitely the EDL. Who acted, perpetrated miscondonduct, littering, abuse and libel? Not the EDL!
Shame to the RMT, a so-called union, who should spare its aggressivity and needless hatred of the patriots to defending its followers. Shame to the so-called unionists who certainly don't have to cope with the roun-thebend demands of the islamists!
Shame to le leftist rabble who, for sure, didn't benefit of a proper child-raiding to learn not to litter everywhere thay come round!
Shame to the so-called moderate Muslims we never hear...

Dear Esmerelda:
As a disinterested foreign observer, my attitude toward the EDL is at best ambivalent and much of the time simply dismissive. Coverage of the EDL tends to leave a bad taste in my mouth. EDL protestors' signs are frequently misspelled (e.g., "RELIGOUS HATRED" in one of your photographs), and protesters' appearance is often slovenly. The mission statement on the EDL's website is incomprehensible: look at the cloying language of " rights" and "democracy," the risible quotes from the European Court of Human Rights (a supra-national institution that, as you and I know, undermines British sovereignty), and the calls for a "reform" of Islam "to make it more relevant to the needs of the modern world." (Go ahead: square that circle. . .)
Scottish nationalists are on the verge of dissolving Great Britain, a course of action to which I suspect many EDL members would not object. (In The Abolition of Britain, Peter Hitchens bemoans the increased use of the St. George Cross at the expense of the Union Flag, wryly noting that when the former is flown at English churches, many hooligan types probably think that the vicar is a football fan. . .)
As for the EDL's leadership, Tommy Robinson is a thug who beats women and uses illegal drugs, a specialist in the favorite exercise of the English underclass, namely, head-butting. Though Mr. Robinson's behavior is neither here nor there in reference to ordinary EDL members, I cannot say that the respect he seems to command is not dismaying.
Maybe you can help me better to understand the "on the ground" situation in the EDL.
2 Sep 2012
I have to say I share your impressions of the EDL. However, I find it hard to disagree with Paul Weston of the British Freedom Party.
Please feel free to contribute over at the forum dedicated to the writing of Theodore Dalrymple. We have a topic on the BFP among many others.

The EDL have demonstrated in the streets against this wicked crime against humanity. As a woman this means everything to me. Thank God for the EDL! They are REAL MEN. What are you doing to protect women and children from devout, Quran-obedient Muslims?
Centuries ago, Egypt was a Christian country that was invaded by Muslims. The horrors, atrocities, murders, kidnappings of female Christian children, rapes and enslavement of Christians continues.
Because non-Muslims don't worship the deity Muslims call Allah, terrible suffering; physical, mental and emotional agony is perpetrated by Muslims on non-Muslims.
The pain is beyond bearing for the Christian parents of their precious daughters who have been kidnapped by merciless Muslims.

Barbaric mass murderer and HUGE slave trader, founder of Islam, Mohammad, married a six year old child when he was in his fifties. Mohammad murdered/beheaded seven hundred Jewish men because of the Jews enormous love for, and allegiance to our Wonderful Creator. The Jews refused to follow another god and the new religion of Mohammad. The Jews' wives and children were seized for slaves.
Mohammad is regarded as the PERFECT man and role model for devout Muslims who follow their religion. There is no love, mercy, or compassion for innocent humanity in Islam.
The agony and terrible suffering of non-Muslims kidnapped and taken for slaves by Muslims continues to this day:

FRONTPAGEMAG: Pakistan's Christian 'Sex-Slaves': A Case Study
Consider the following stories that never make it to the MSM—a sampling limited to just last month's grab-bag of atrocities committed against Pakistan's Christians (since anymore than that would be too immense to list):
A 9-year-old Christian girl was abducted, gang-raped, and murdered by repeated blows to her head, and then dumped into a canal.
A 24-year-old Christian woman who was kidnapped, forced to convert to Islam, and forced to marry a Muslim, is now reportedly on the verge of being "sold abroad."
At the same time that Muslims were desecrating a Christian cemetery, a Christian mother was abducted, drugged, and gang-raped all night long.
After brutally attacking a priest and his family, another young Christian woman was abducted and raped over several days by a man claiming to be a police officer.
Yet another Christian girl was raped by a Pakistani army major at gunpoint and then dumped off.
A powerful Muslim businessman had two Christian sisters kidnapped, forced them to convert to Islam, and marry him.
Prostitutes, Pimps & Kerb Crawlers Shamed in Waltham Foresthttp://www.youtube.com/watch?feature=player_embedded&v=rdcx7rDsqKk
The above Muslim video is utter hypocrisy, and DECEPTION. Barbaric mass murderer and huge slave trader, founder of Islam, Mohammad, who married a six year old child when he was in his fifties, declared:
There are no Muslim street demonstrations protesting the evil gangs of Muslim inhuman monsters – cruel, filthy predators who target non-Muslim, defenseless British female children who they rape, sexually enslave and force into prostitution.

I've got neither the heart nor the stomach for so-called flame wars, but I should like to say that the hysterical tenor of your response suggests that, at least in the matter of the EDL, you are more interested in emotions than facts.
I challenge you to name one "lie" that I have told. Everything I wrote about Robinson (or Lennon or Yaxley-Lennon, or whatever he's calling himself these days) is a statement of fact.
3 Sep 2012
Linda Rivera
To M. Walther:
I gave fully documented FACTS on Muslim violence and atrocities. Barbaric Muslim cruelty and violence are FACTS. They are REAL things, NOT emotions.
Yesterday, Sunday, I attended a protest demonstration from 12 noon to 2 p.m. with Hindus, Sikhs and other human rights activists about the atrocities, murders and constant jihad committed by Muslims in India. WE WERE NOT PROTESTING EMOTIONS. WE WERE PROTESTING FULLY DOCUMENTED FACTS!
Later in the month we will be protesting against atrocities and violence against non-Muslims in Pakistan. We will be protesting FACTS - NOT EMOTIONS!
3 Sep 2012
M. Walther
Ms. Rivera,
I am not a fellow traveler with the "religion of peace." Hard to see why I would be a New English Review contributor if I were.
My actual claim: "[A]t least in the matter of the EDL, you are more interested in emotions than facts."
NB: "at least in the matter of the EDL."
I did not dispute the factuality of your claims about Islamic militancy. But I do fail to see how your EDL-related statements such as "The EDL (and British Freedom) are my BIG heroes!" and "They are REAL MEN," with their crude capital letters (the equivalent, if we were in a physical forum, of shouting!), are anything but pure emotion. In your earlier post you accused me of lying about Robinson, yet you have not responded to my challenge to present one instance in which I have actually done so.
This shall be my last post on this thread. I urgue you (and anyone else who has not done so) to look at the facts about Robinson, who has among other things 1) proudly borrowed his non de guerre from a known rioter, 2) previously been active in the BNP, 3) lied about the races of a group of men who assaulted him to bolster his loathsome views about Asians, and 4) been convicted of assault multiple times times (including assault of a police officer, which was once a hanging offense!).
This also touches Gavin's point about the BFP. Though I agree with some of the things one sees in their party manifesto, I could never lend my (meaningless, as I am an American citizen) support to any political party that has football hooligan Tommy Robinson as its deputy leader. (If point eight of the BFP's 20 point plan, "Drastically reduce crime – criminals should fear the consequences of their behaviour," were put into action, Robinson would be behind bars as we speak!)
Instead I find myself oscillating between lending my support to UKIP (following Simon Heffer) and quixotically hoping that violent Tories of the old school like Jacob Rees-Mogg, Peter Bone, and John Redwood can save the Conservative Party.

Linda Rivera
To M. Walther,
One of the very top priorities in my life is human rights and that is why I make the comments that I do to draw attention to the horrendous suffering of non-Muslims under Islam.
Human rights is why I attend street demonstrations with others and why I sign petitions, etc.
From your responses, it is more than obvious that human rights is not something you care about. How sad.
I have the deepest respect and admiration for EDL and British Freedom who are human rights activists:
ALL people must have human rights, and
ALL people must have equality before the law.
6 Sep 2012
Linda Rivera
To M Walther,
EDL leaders have been demonized and LIED about. It is SOP (Standard operating procedure) when a nation's leaders and cooperative mainstream media desire to destroy a person, organization or even an entire race of people (as has been done to the Jews for thousands of years).
In Arab Muslim countries, the vicious lies and horrible blood libels about Jews are as bad as they were during the time of Hitler. In Arab Muslim countries, the book "Mein Kampf" is a top best seller.
7 Sep 2012
Linda Rivera
EDL and British Freedom believe very strongly that
ALL people must have human rights, and
ALL people must have equality before the law.
Islamic sharia law treat women as inferior beings and in Muslim contries non-Muslims have NO rights. The suffering of non-Muslims is beyond bearing:
These are some of the horrors that will take place in our countries once the number of Muslims reaches a certain point.
The Quran teaches hate, violence and murder of non-Muslims and commands Muslims to wage jihad against hated non-Muslims and conquer all nations.

CBNNews.com—JERUSALEM—Israel's government may soon issue up to twenty more licenses for companies to drill for oil and gas in Israel's coastal waters. The nation's Crude Oil Council recommended the licensing Thursday after the confirmation several weeks ago of a large natural gas find in waters near the port of Haifa.
Previously, oil and gas drilling took place in only 10 percent of Israeli coastal waters. Under the new recommendations, companies would search in 54 percent of the offshore areas. The council also supports granting a license to Negev Oil and Shale to produce shale oil in the southern Negev Desert.
All licenses are subject to approval by Israel's National Infrastructures Ministry.

These are very tasty biscuits. Love the parmesan flavor. The cornmeal texture is a nice change. Thanks for sharing.
Very nice! Savory biscuit is a good description. Was not sure what to expect when I tagged these as it said biscuit but reading the recipe sound more like a cracker. Mine turned out more like a savory short bread. The cornmeal adds a lot to the texture and is a wonderful complement to the olive oil and rosemary. Made one slight mistake in make, added all the Parmesan cheese at the time of mixing and did not sprinkle any on top. Also increased the olive oil to a full 6 ounces and baked for 20 to 25 minutes. Would recommend checking after baking for 15 minutes as my oven may be a little off, but they should be firm to the touch.
We enjoyed as a snack and thought they would be great with either soup or salad. If you are like use and enjoy the flavor combo of olive oil and rosemary in a shortbread type of biscuit you will enjoy these tasty little bites. Will make again. Thanks for the post.

Chemical weapons are disappearing from Syria and some say it's time to ban them from the entire region. Others say banning nuclear weapons must remain paramount. Could simply discussing these issues make the region more secure?
The author argues that banning the use of chemical weapons in the Middle East is an example of the sort of liberalization that is needed to improve the region's security and strip radical movements of their legitimacy.
The author proposes that the UN Security Council sponsor a process to establish a chemical-weapon-free zone in the Middle East.
The author first emphasizes that chemical weapons are a human rights issue above all, then argues that though a chemical-weapon-free zone would improve security in the Middle East, neither Israel nor Egypt is likely to perceive much benefit in establishing a zone.

Challenger Tillage Tools on Show at Wadenbrunn Field Day
Challenger, a worldwide brand of AGCO (NYSE: AGCO), showcased two models from the CH1700 Series Offset Disc Harrow range at the Fendt-Saaten Union Field Day in Wadenbrunn, Germany (27 August 2014). The demonstration of this primary cultivation tool at the event was part of a new focus by AGCO on the Seeding & Tillage sector.
A sister brand of Fendt, Challenger supplies tracked tractor, application equipment and Seeding & Tillage implements. The CH1700 offset disc harrows with folding frame feature one of the heaviest disc weights in the industry and are designed for primary tillage, residue/chemical incorporation and land reclamation. Suitable for tractors from 260-455hp and with working widths ranging from 6.50-7.60m, these heavy-duty, rugged implements will penetrate even the toughest ground.
AGCO's Seeding & Tillage range covers a wide range of products from disc harrows and field cultivators to air drills and row-crop planters.
"AGCO has been involved in the seeding and tillage sector since the company's inception in 1990," says Cameron McKenzie, Seeding & Tillage Manager Europe/Africa/Middle East. "Since then, key acquisitions and a joint venture with Amity Technology, one of the leading names in the sector, have significantly increased our seeding and tillage product portfolio."
"A key aim of AGCO's Seeding & Tillage initiative is to develop products using appropriate technology – from smaller implements matched to the needs of emerging markets to sophisticated broad-acre solutions," he says. "Our major markets to date have been North and South America, Eastern Europe and Africa. The next step is to extend and look for new opportunities in Western and Central Europe and we are delighted to be able to start our promotional campaign at the prestigious Fendt-Saaten Union Field Day."
Challenger Is Living Up To Its Name
What better way to celebrate the launch of our all-new MT775 E Series Challenger tracked tractors than its selection as one of the twelve finalists for the 2015 Tractor of the Year Award to be announced at the upcoming EIMA International show in Bologna, Italy next month? This new, never before seen tractor has a 438 horsepower engine, a massive 15% increase over the previous model and now boasts 34" belts which provide 13% more grip area.
The award itself is judged by a group of 23 European specialized agricultural machinery journalists who evaluate the both the field tractors as well as specialized as well as the design both categories. After field conditions are evaluated, the shortlist is determined. Winners are announced at the next major European show – in this case – The EIMA Show. To see all of this year's finalists including two of Challenger's sister brands, check out this video:
"We are so excited to demonstrate this 400+ hp tractor that applies all the power directly to the ground on our industry exclusive Mobil-Trac™ system delivering superior traction and low compaction. We can't wait to meet the jury of the Tractor of the Year at the field evaluations," commented Luca Cattani, Challenger Product Marketing Manager – Track and Articulated Tractors, EAME.
Three Awards will be given out on the first day of the EIMA show:
- Tractor of the year to the tractor reaching the highest score
- Best of the specialized tractors (orchard, vineyard)
- Golden tractor for the design

Idaho Dealer Agri-Service Holds Series of Fall Tillage Days
While the skies above may look ominous in this picture, the tractors and equipment were in for a day of hard work ahead. Several weeks ago in American Falls, Idaho, AGCO dealer Agri-Service, LLC had its first of a series of events called Fall Tillage days. This is a chance for their customers and prospects get behind the wheel of our tractors and demonstrate them along with our tillage equipment. "In attendance at this particular event were approximately 18 guests representing about 8 local farm operations," said Adam Hubbard, Marketing Manager at Agri-Service.
Available to demo were a Challenger MT685 pulling a Sunflower 4511 Disc Chisel, a Challenger MT765 pulling a Sunflower 1436 Disc Harrow, and a Challenger MT865 pulling a Sunflower 4630 Disc Ripper. Everyone in attendance was able to demonstrate each of these machines and Agri-Service salesmen as well as AGCO Product Specialists were on-hand to answer questions and point out key features of the equipment and highlight their benefits. All were able to easily demonstrate the ability to till under the crop residue while leaving an impressive finish.
As these machines were parked on a well-traveled road prior to the start of the day, there were some walk-ups inquiring about the impressive display including the static Gleaner Super Series S88 which was prominently showcased as well.
"We had positive feedback from all of the customers that attended. All were able to operate the equipment and were impressed by the tractors as well as the performance of each tillage piece. Some of them had used Sunflower [before] and some hadn't," stated Hubbard. When asked if anything in particular stood out to the guests, Hubbard replied, "the SF 4630, the big disc ripper and it performed very well in addition to the incredible ability and performance of the MT865 tractor."
Agri-Service has three more upcoming Fall Tillage events in October. To learn more, click here.

AGCO ATS Dealer Training in Christchurch – Innovative Solutions for New Zealand Farmers
AGCO's New Zealand Dealers gathered recently in Addington, Christchurch, for comprehensive training in Advanced Technology Solutions (ATS) including System 110 Guidance, System 150 and System 350 Auto steering and AGCO's telemetry system, Agcommand.
AGCO's extensive dealer network gives farmers access to the resources and benefits of these new and emerging agricultural products. Dealer training empowers dealers with the knowledge and expertise needed to provide customers with high end precision farming solutions and the know how to suit progressive farmers. AGCO's precision farming technologies enable farmers and contractors to optimise their operations, reduce input costs and achieve greater efficiency and profitability.
In New Zealand, the highly professional dealer group attending the training included dealer principals, sales staff and technical support staff. All were given the opportunity to evaluate the systems on display in real time with a mix of Valtra, Fendt and Massey Ferguson tractors equipped with AGCO's technology products.
Taking an active role in enhancing dealers' knowledge base, AGCO Australia's ATS Product Manager, Jeremy Duniam, was pleased with the training that included classroom style learning as well as practical demonstrations of the products.
"The dealer training was extremely productive and was received very well by all participating. It is always rewarding to see dealer staff remain behind after the day sessions have finished to spend more time getting familiar with the systems. The dealer network in New Zealand is very professional in their approach. Their knowledge of ATS solutions will equip New Zealand farmers with innovative technology solutions, which is the future of farming." Jeremy said.
This recent dealer training reflects AGCO's commitment to and global emphasis on precision ag technology, recently launched as Fuse™ Technologies. To learn more about AGCO's on and off board technologies and the Fuse technology strategy, visit http://www.agcocorp.com/products/precision_farming.aspx.

Great fun factor vehicle. I am getting about 25-26 miles per gallon with manual transmission. This is a great car that would serve the all the purposes: vacation, basic transportation, big item moving or purchasing. Mine is a DX, so the only thing I miss is the cruise control, everything else is very well thought and placed. I love my Element,and I plan to have it for a good while. Buyer beware: if you drive it, you'll like it... and buy it.
Manual transmission, the overall great versatility, looks small from outside, huge inside, not one of the most stolen vehicles, no timing belt to replace, higher seating position, easy in and out access, plenty of headroom (I m 6.1).
A 6th speed and an available armrest, for the ones that want one (the one available is poorly thought - we need a real one that would serve the purpose).
I've enjoyed the vehicle. and would recommend it to anyone. this is my first Honda and I would buy again. US made does not come close. My other car is US and there is always something going wrong with it. I've got 11,000 on the Honda and only one small A/C vent broke on me.
The high seating and outside visibility give you that feeling that you do have total control. The double doors that both open are great.
Add a foot well to the back seat to add comfort for those in the back, plus it will make it easier to get in and out.
Only maintenance service required, no problems, comfortable, love the raised back seats so my grandchildren can see out the front window, love the way the seats store when I have to pick up large things or loads, love the way the car handles both around town and on the highway. I have had people stop me in parking lots and ask to see the inside and I think I have help the dealer sell a bunch. There are more on the road around here every day. Just saw a new one in the driveway of one of my neighbors. We just check the totally around town stop and go mileage and it was about 23 mpg. Functional, comfortable, sensible, easy to keep clean, my husband, who called it ugly drives it a lot.
I'm a cheap-skate. I wanted a small, thrifty truck, but it seems nobody makes 'em anymore...so I went with Honda's Element. This thing is a hoot to drive. I'm no racer, so maybe I don't expect too much; but I find this little box hustles. I'd have been happy with less; given ever-rising gas prices, I want even more than the about 29 mpg it's averaged over the first 15,000 miles. I leave my back seats in the garage, and treat it as a 2-seater. No, you can't hose it out, but otherwise it is extremely durable and versatile for light hauling, camping or grocery-getting.
This is a robust little truck with a stong engine. Pleased to report made- in-USA build quality is very good. I'm hoping that translates to the kind of durability I expect from Japanese Hondas.
Although I know most folks want more power, not me. I want better fuel- economy. Like that diesel featured in European Honda ads. I also want a Westfalia version with a pop-up roof and camping accessories.

Matador Meets Karma: Graphic Goring Caught on Tape
I would have liked to have titled this blog "Bull: 1, Matador: 0," but unfortunately, in the world of bull
fighting torturing, even when the bull wins, he loses. Even though he clearly won this "fight," the bull in the below video was reportedly killed by other matadors after running a horn through one bullfighter's throat.
Warning: Graphic video below.
You can see still photos on The Huffington Post.
The matador, Julio Aparicio, was rushed to the hospital in critical condition but is expected to recover. Wish we could say the same for the bull.
Let this serve as a reminder: Never book a trip to Spain that includes tickets to a bullfight. Better yet, don't book a trip to Spain at all until it abolishes this abomination (unless you plan to participate in an anti-bullfighting protest, of course).

It's not really a fight if one holds a sword it should be rename like bullcowaring.. Take on the bull without a sword and 10 clowns to help you. that sounds more like a fight.
Ummmmm I am shedding a tear………FOR THE BULL! BullSLAUGHTERINGfighting must STOP!
I think the way in which bulls are treated in Spain is horrific and even if it is a tradition it is a stupid one. I hope that 'Matador' learned his lesson.
Bullfighting is horribly disgusting. I usually avoid watching videos of people or animals getting killedinjured but in cases of ignorant cruel people being hurt… I must admit I kinda like to watch. It's the irony the karma the person getting what they deserve…
as they say what goes around
we should avoid all countrys that legally torture animals and withdraw our economy if we all act 2gether we can make a difference no reason on this earth can excuse causing suffering cos if it was human there would be outrage animals suffer far worse than ppl. time 2 act!!
Some of you are being terrible hypocrites! Of course bullfighting is cruel and wrong. Of course that man did a wrong thing. However for you to be happy about that man's injury is cruel. Worse to get excited about WATCHING that man's injury is exactly the same as the emotion felt by the fans watching the bullfight.
If only this was the outcome in every torturing. But every animal victory is a blessing.
I totally agree with Maru's comment. If we were to keep all our old traditions we'd still have slavery indentured servitude the rack and burning at the stake. Time to drop barbaric traditions if we want to be called "civilized". I wish the outlawing of bullfighting had been a requirement for Spain's entry into the EU. As for the matador he got what he deserved too bad it wasn't worse.
How do people think that its ok to sit watch such a BARBARIC act I for one think that the Bull Fighter got was coming to him. Kudos to the Bull!!Animal Cruelty NEEDS to STOP!!!!!How would you like it if you were constantly teased beaten this Needs to STOP!! if it takes my last dying breath I will make sure that ANIMAL CRUELTY STOPS!!
Any nation that are cruel to animals due to tradition should have his mind read the little bit of mind that is still operating.
if it wasnt for sports heroes like f1.com fernando alonso carmen jorda and other drivers from spain spain would be run by nazis there all SICK!.. thats why this contnues.
This made my day I enjoyed that moment so much. I hate that the bull was killed the poor thing. I can't believe how this 'tradition' is still going. I am from Mexico and we have it here too. I despise it. I wish all bullfighters got gored.
I heard on a quiz show on tv that Julius Caesar invented the bullfight during the Roman Empire days when Rome was above all else. I dont know how true this is but how did the bullfight get to be such a Spanish tradition if it was invented in Italy? Slavery was a tradition in the US for centuries and that was thankfully done away with so bullfighting could be done away with too.
Good!!!!!! Its beautiful when animals reply back!!
I feel so sorry for the poor bull….Y dont they end this stupid practice????? Do they have to harm the bull to prove they are superior???? huhhhh!!!!!!!!!!!! so sick….I m very happy for the matador plight..wont feel sad even if he dies…
Love it
Spain is a beautiful country I wouldn't want to affect their economy by not travelling there because I do believe that a lot of the people are against this barbaric "sport" no more than I would want that to happen to Canada because of their seal hunt. Most Canadians are against that too. There has to be some other way.
Couldn't agree more Rita!! If more would die maybe they matadors would think twice before going in the ring or enrolling in classes!! They actually have a school for this sht!! NO simpathy for these guys whatsoever!! The bull did what comes naturally and you and I would have done the same!! Just too bad the bull wasn't equipped with swords and new how to use them then these so called matadors would probably be going into the ring with guns!! Foolish men!! Sorry Spain will NEVER visit you knowing what is going on!! Untill this blood shed stops… Goodbye!!
I never holiday in Spain and i refuse to contribute towards spending money in any region of the world that has such cruel blood sports regardless of the amount of Spanish that are against it there are more that are for it! The more mindless Bull fighters that die the better.
I have been fighting against bullfighting for more than 30 years and I can tell you that it is true that most Spaniards and Latin Americans are against it but when their politicians and the Catholic Church continue the promotion of this barbaric show under the label of "tradition" we must come up with other effective strategies like a tourism boycott. Most of the time the economic blow is what matters the most. Now regarding the assassin yes he is a human being but this human being chose to get into a bullring to intentionally participate in a massacre. He was more than willing to inflict agonizing pain to an animal who after hours of torture would die drowning in his own blood. Would you be sorry for the painful death of a rapist who brutally killed a child? These bastards need to be wiped off the face of the earth.
As long as Spain has bullfights I would never be able to bring myself to go thereespecially since the fights seem to be held largely for tourists. Dry up the tourist trade and the bullfights dry up right? For the same reason I can't bring myself to visit Alaska knowing that they support aerial wolf hunting and the dreadful Iditarod yet another archaic and cruel tourist attraction. As for Canada isn't PETA urging people to "explore elsewhere" because of the seal hunt? I think tourism boycotts can be extremely effective. Money talks.
It's not the bull's fault the poor bull shouldn't have been put in this situation to begin with! It's wrong and this animal cruelty needs to stop! What the hell is wrong with people? Just let animals be. I am glad the gentleman will be okay but for god's sake enough with the bull fighting already! It's wrong!
this is a cruel tradition from a nation that has demonstrated greater cruelty to it's own kind. Spain is responsible for the massacre of uncounted humans during their days of conquest in the Americas. So why are we surprised that they continue this barbarism today. Too bad the bull didn't do worse…maybe a few more matador deaths will bring an end to this blood sport.
Those of you who commented this man "deserved" it are being extremist. People should be educated not brutalized. We all love animals but outright hatred of other humans and devaluing of human life is not going to achieve any meeting of the minds.
Tragedies will continue to occur if mindless violence is championed in this way… there's only one way it will ever change. Stop the killing! That bull would never have harmed anyone had he not been slated for torture and death. Cattle are gentle creatures in most situations but anyone will lash out if they fear for their life.
Well may I say it is about time a bull won a fight!! If it was the last decent thing this bull had done in it's lifetime. I know this sounds a bit harshI cannot feel sorry for the matador they have been slaying bulls for centuries. Spain has never been a place I wanted to go just for it's ritual abuse. They also drop goats out of a window before a bullfight.Need I say the goat has 4 broken legs.Even in Roman times animals were captured starved and put into the ring with people doomed to death and if the person killed the socalled BEAST he lived another day to fight another animal. Animal torture has been going on since the beginning of time and occasionally the BEAST wins. It is a truly sadistic person that gets any amount of joy going against nature. The animal does not want trouble and when put in a firing line well all it can do is strike backsadly the animal dies for defending itself.I would much prefer to see 2 conscience willing participants fight to the death than man on animal because only the man wins to fight another day. This bullfighter will never forget that this bull got the best of himand that's no BULL but of course he will be glorified when he heals and comes out to play again.Sad but true.
Does an injury like that smart if the injured is an idiot?
Good for the bull!!!!!!!!!!! Its a shame the bullfighter wasnt hurt worse!
The bastard got what he deserved!
There are cruel people in all countries fortunately their in the minority its a matter of what governing bodies in each country regard as exessive cruelty and some are more lax than others. Im vegan and hate cruelty and dont think this man got even nearly what he deserved.
whose to say it wont stop if we dont support the Spanish economy? I refuse to go to canada until they stop butchering seals japan until they stop slaughtering dolphins so I can easily add spain to my list.
its hardly a fight more like a one sided torture regime
I think to word this in such a way dat says d matador deserves what he got is wrong. If I believe and choose to b vegetarian so dat I am not hurting any then how can I say. Matador going through this is "bull 1 matador 0" as u say u wished u could have titled this. I will never condone hurting an animal in any way but I will never even thjnk to say a human being hurt or dying d hand of an animal is deserving. It is not my place to pass judgement on anyone person or any one animal but to pray for them equally and hope for d day an animal i no tortured at d hands of a human being or dat a human us hurt by an animal because his need to defend himherself.
i grew up in Spain and would return in a heartbeat to live. not all Spanish people believe in this 'tradition' and critising the country as a whole is wrong.. do go to Spain an see the wonder they have to offer aside from this particular nasty 'sport' just dont go to a bullfight!! would you say dont go to america cos they have seaworld there..?
I just cannot understand what people get out of this bull fighting thing its humans vs animals… and animals have limited understanding compared to humans… so why have a fight? does this bullfighters and their patrons rate themselves lower than animals?
He soooooo deserved that i can't stand that crap
We are not primitive and brutal. I'm Spanish and I'm against bullfighting. The problem is that politicians don't listen to what the rest of Spaniards say. We don't want bullfighting anymore!!! I love animals I'm vegan I don't buy products tested on animals… and I'm Spanish yeah believe it? What about seal slaughter in Canada?
He doesn't seem too badly hurt unfortunately
I'm not a cruel person but I feel absolutely no pity for the human. Hopefully this will keep him from doing something this inhumane and stupid again.
Spain is more than this! Everyone who wanna come is welcome there is more things to do here beach sun mountains good food music beautiful cities museums and many different people. I'm against bullfighting and I'm spanish AND I enjoy many other things. I think everyone has something to be embarrassed in their own country but people knows that there are more things that are worth fighting. xx
I think that we shouldent be glad that This matador is injured after all he Is a person but I also think that everyone Is responsable for their own acts and Decitions I guess this is a way for Nature to 'teach' them a lesson sadly People see bullfighting as a tradition Rather than torture and they will Allways blame the bull and even if The bull kills a matador he will allways Get the worst part
Do I feel sorry for the matador? NO never in my whole life.
It appears Spain hasn't reached modern times yet …how can they be so primitive and brutal?!?
It looks like the bull got his revenge this time and im glad it did. But dam that looks painfull
Im sorry but he kinda deserved that. now the bull has to die. at least he got that "one last hurrah"
The bull was killed? I read he wasn't and that he was gonna have to suffer the same torture again with another matador. But if he was killed…why?! Was it his fault? Why can't they just get rid of this cruel tradition…
I am from Spain and MOST Spaniards DO NOT condone this sport including myself. Many tourists attend this because of tradition. Please don't try to hurt the spanish economy because of something that will never stop no matter how much we protest it.
He had it coming.

What should I do to it
(1/5) > >>
Hey guys I got the 73 and I leave GA to go back to kansas becasue my tour in ga is done and I leave for Ky in about a month I want some ideas on what to do to my mach that I could do while I was there I will put a couple pics so you can check it out the inside is all factory adn will not be touched for the fact that is doesn't need to be.STANG OUT
well the first thing you can do is park it in my drive way on the way back to Kansas :-D
how about tinted windows ,wing,spoiler maybe new american racing 18 inch torq thurst wheels
Yeah give me your address and I make sure I drop it off, lol. I was going to tint the windows and I have already got the spolier front and back in my mind and wheels are a diff, but want to wait to get the car back to primer first. STANG OUT
Jerry Baker:
Well it would be closer to park it at my house since Im in KY and you will be driving by to get to KS and then coming back to KY. But wheels would be my first change. I got my 500s here in Lexington Ky from Docs Mustangs they were cheaper then any were else I had found and they came with center caps and lugs, everywere else make you buy all that seperate.
I would take the ball and hitch off the back and maybe a sporter hood.
okay I knew it wouldn't be to long before someone said something about that #$@ Ball hitch. I am the second onwer and the guy that had it before me was starting to slow down in life and the car was only use to pull his golf cart to teh course which was only about 3 miles down the road. Yes I want to get new rims and keep these factory rims put up incase I ever want to sell her. What do you mean by sporty hood, it is the ram air hood once again factory if I might add, lol. I was looking to make it a working hood but the car only came with 177 ponies from the floor so no a big need but I am trying to get ahold of the 2 valve intake and get a carb to try get something out of her, but it is hard being here talking about it and not at home where I can go out and do even little things to it so. The one thing that I ask is neither one of you guys said anything about that ugly vnyil ( I KNOW I CANNOT SPELL) top off of it . I know that you cannot trace it back to the car so I can take it off and it would make it look alot better and not have that extra maintance. What do you think.. oh good luck getting it in your driveway i have only got to drive it once and I have owned it for over a year and half now.STANG OUT

Love the idea of a Memory Quilt, but want something smaller?
Try a special Memory Pillow or Memorial Hankie! Memory Pillows come in 3 sizes: small (14" x 14"), medium ( 16" by 16"), and large (20" x 20").
Large Memory Pillows
The large pillow measures 20 inches by 20 inches. 5-10 shirts with small logos are needed.
Cording is included on the large pillow in the color of your choice. A complimentary fabric, in the color of your choice, will be used for the back of the pillow.
I can use t-shirts on both sides of the pillow for an additional fee.
I supply the pillow form.
Price: $90.00
Love all of the North Penn history in this 20" Memory Pillow! From Walton Farm, to Pennfield, to North Penn High School!
Check out the tea cup from her sweet childhood "Beauty and the Beast" bed sheet.
It was even backed with her precious baby blanket
Karate Belt Pillows!
MQBM received a large bag of karate belts and was asked to add them to three Memory Quilts.
Sadly, the belts are just too thick. So, we did the next best thing: the belts were weaved into a pillow! Such amazing results! Each pillow was backed with a super soft black fleece.
Baby Pillows
Filled with all of the onsies, and other garments of babies first year! Additional fees may be incurred due to extra labor.
These pillows are now being made so that they can be removed from the pillow form and washed!
Jaxon enjoying his sweet baby pillow made with his favorite turtle shirt and many others ;)
Medium Embroidered Memory Pillows
Memorial Pillows can be made to honor those we have lost.
The Medium pillow measures 16" by 16" and comes in one style. It is made with 1 cotton button down shirt and has a sweet sentiment embroidered over the pocket. this style is very popular.
"This is a shirt I used to wear, whenever you hold it, know that I am there. Love, Dad" or the salutation of your choice.
It is backed with the back of the same shirt and sewn with an envelope closure on the back. This envelope closure allow you to wash the pillow cover.
The front of the shirt is kept whole-buttons and all!
The sweet sentiment is sewn over the pocket.
This is what a past customer had to say about her 5 pillows: "I can't thank you enough for bringing a small piece of our Dad back to each of us."
Small Memory Pillows
This pillows measures 14" x 14".
I can make you a pillow or a set of pillows created from any special clothing or fabrics that you cherish. Pillows don't need nearly as many t-shirts as quilts; they are backed with super soft fleece in a complimentary color and pattern.
They can be double-sided (for an extra fee) with either a repeat of the clothes pattern seen on the front, or with a special blanket that you may have.
The small pillow measures 14 inches by 14 inches.
5-10 shirts are needed. Five shirts for the front and five shirts for the back.
Each pillow is backed with a complimentary fabric in the color of your choice.
I can use t-shirts on both sides of the pillow for an additional fee.
I will supply the pillow form.
Price: $75.00
"One of Jay's buddy's and his family was here and he was
speechless when he saw the pillows. He just loved them!
YAY! Thank you so so much. They
are just wonderful. I wasn't even sad... just really pleased. Again, thank
you for taking time with me and showing compassion. What a gift God has
given you!"
14 inch pillow with cording and special photo block
Wedding Pillows
This pillow was made for a very lucky couple on their wedding day. It is made with the grand mom's gorgeous wedding dress from 1936!
To make it extra special the photo was added to the back of the pillow. Both couples were married in August, just 79 years apart ;)
A truly priceless gift!
These 14" pillows are truly unique because they were made with special blankets of a loved one who passed away.
MQBM hemmed the remaining portion of the blankets and sent them back to the customer.
Pillows can be made with special blankets!
These 20" pillows were made with special shirts and lots of vintage boy scout patches!
Extra care was taken to sew these patches on these 3 Memorial Pillows.
A special photo was added to the middle of each pillow.
Memory Handkerchiefs
Memory Handkerchiefs are a new product. They are made from a cotton shirt of a loved one that is no longer with us.
A personalized sentiment is embroidered on each one and the loved ones initials are added.
Each hankie measures 12" wide by 12" long and is backed with 100% cotton fabric.
Many times these are made for weddings and given to family members or the bridal party
to place in their suit jackets and purses so the loved one is remembered and present in a small way.
