This study examines how women managers are perceived by their subordinates within formal organizations. In a context where there is a perception that women are not competent enough to manage men, this is believed to influence the behaviour of women managers and how subordinates describe and relate to them. Attempts have been made to compare women and men managers in terms of personal characteristics, style of influence and performances to determine whether women managers are described based on lack of competence or are gender stereotyped. The results portray that there is no significant difference in the managerial behavior of men and women except where subordinates expected them to exhibit specific behaviors. The study therefore suggests that activities in educational institutions and organizations should be favorable enough to motivate women to enter managerial positions.

Here's how House Republicans are kicking off their legislative term in the majority: Yesterday, a theatrical vote to repeal health care reform. Today, the "No Taxpayer Funding For Abortion Act." Priorities!
We knew it was coming, of course, buoyed by the new regime: The chairman of the Energy Committee health panel, Rep. Joseph Pitts, and Chris Smith and Dan Lipinksi, the co-chairs of the Congressional Pro-Life Caucus. (An identically-named bill was introduced in July but it never went anywhere.) If you're keeping track, there isn't currently taxpayer funding for abortion, thanks to the Hyde Amendment. Never mind; the act seeks to make the Hyde Amendment permanent. Here's the pro-choice response:

PSCCC Albany Medical Center Serves the educational needs of the Center Standardized patients, task training and simulation Opened in 2011
Debrief Definitions Practical applications Simulation video review Small group discussion Large group discussion Summary
Definition de·brief To question someone, typically a soldier or spy Details about a completed mission or undertaking Synonyms: cross-examine, interview, interrogate, question, probe, examine, grill or pump
Originally used for soldiers returning from a battlefield, for commanders to fully understand a situation on the front line Done as soon as possible to get the freshest information Communication largely from subordinate to superior
Became apparent that there was a benefit to other soldiers to share experiences Greater understanding of what happened when shared as a group Bolstering of individual and group identity Now 1,060,000 results on Google
Many additional benefits Clearer understanding for all Identification of future pitfalls Reinforces lessons learned through experience May decrease anxiety of experience Improves group dynamic and functioning Eases transition back into normal work duties
American Counseling Association Seven Stages, 3-5 days post event, 2-3 hours Introduction Facts Thoughts Reactions Symptoms Teaching Re-entry
Critical Incident Stress Debriefing 1983 Same seven steps Meant to help staff through significant, stressful incidents Also delayed from time of incident
Simulation Debrief Discussion after a simulated event Designed to improve understanding To enhance future performance
Traditional Simulation Debrief Facilitated by someone with competence Done in a safe environment Facilitated by someone who witnessed the experience Based on a structured framework Congruent with outcomes and objectives International Nursing Association for Clinical Simulation and Learning
Four Es Debriefer encourages conversation about patterns of behavior by asking learners to describe the events that happened, the emotions around these events, potential alternative viewpoints to empathize and explanations for actions and emotions. Mayville 2011
GAS Ten minute approach designed to gather information about how learners think and feel about the session, analyze their actions and summarize lessons learned. O'Donnell 2009
Understand the "frame" Assumptions Feelings Goals Knowledge Situation Awareness All drive individual behavior but sometimes are not obvious to others.
"Good Judgment" Advocacy Observation, statement Inquiry Question "I noticed when the nurse asked if we needed to intubate, you responded by asking for lab results. What were you thinking?" Rudolph et al.
Good Judgment Assume there is a reason for everything, even if it is not apparent to you Be genuinely curious about why someone else did what he/she did Assume everyone wants to do the "right" thing Rudolph
All day, every day Every resuscitation Every code Every family conflict Every difficult encounter Maybe even some of the easy ones
In fact…. Debriefing is a critical component to continuous quality assessment and improvement Necessary for new staff Equally necessary for seasoned staff Useful in long term retention Necessary for long term job satisfaction Should be employed every day
Critical Elements of the Debrief Safe Respectful Goal to understand a system Goal to improve functioning Goal to decrease hardship
Start with yourself Assess your own reaction- identify your personal frame What did you witness What problems do you identify Who is the correct person to address What do you want to be the outcome Decide the right time and place
Deal with others Acknowledge the emotions first Then work toward a shared understanding of what actually happened Assume the best intentions Keep it personal- your observations and assessment Keep it professional Summarize often Make an action plan
What we will do Show you a simulation that demonstrates a clinical encounter It is created, not real Illustrates issues in daily clinical encounters Your small groups will be asked to identify issues Then a representative will talk about what you saw
Individual Debriefs Medical care (Covering MD-On-call MD) Equipment (MD-RT supervisor) Family dynamics (Bedside RN-Daughter) Inter-professional communication (Bedside RN- Charge RN) Inter-professional communication (Bedside RN-MD) Inter-professional communication (Bedside RN-RT) Crisis recovery (Charge RN-Bedside RN)

Broken hearts and workplaces: a potent mix
Ask a couple how they met and the answer 'at work' will come as no surprise.
It makes complete sense; people spend a lot of time at work. They have laughs, they get to know each other and then frisson has turned into romance.
But, what happens when a romance which started in the office ends? When one party delivers that bad news: It's over!
Ruth Byrne, a post-grad student at Monash University, has embarked on research investigating what can turn out to be the minefields left in the aftermath of broken office romances.

I'm a plumber so let me offer some advice. rule of thumb states that excess food needs to be disposed of in the garbage. the purpose of your disposal is for small scrap meal left on the plate that wouldn't come off by scraping the plate over the garbage can. examples: rice pieces, a few noodles, or that little bit of lettuce from your salad. not an entire rubbermaid container of stroganoff. PS the only thing that is good for your disposal is ice. it sharpens the blades and doesn't clog up. NO EGGSHELLS OR POTATO SKINS. just FYI
MrsDruidess | 6
yes it is, OP is an idiot though. the garbage disposal is for cleaning the little scraps off your plate, not for huge amounts of food!! Thats what your trash can is for.
person5150 | 6
Yesh this is possible lol happened to me once in the shower but it like came out of the wall it wuz weird i was like WTF?!?!?!?!?!? good to know that this has happened to someone else btw
By soiree_fml | 7
never put meat in a garbage disposal. meat and eggshells are both big, big no-no's
TurtleLightning | 7
Meat is no but why eggshells?
RandomRaveDude | 7
I'm guessing leftover calcium in the eggs may corrode some metals and just make your sink really ugly looking.
By Khalavaster | 5
Lol... YDI for not bagging it up and tossing it into the garbage bin. Quite a surprise though!
By katzepferd | 5
throw it away, or, better yet, eat your leftovers, assuming they arent old, which you didnt specify
By vampiregal16rulz | 13
um, garbage disposal isnt connected to plumbing that hooks to you shower, so its impossible for it to be stroganoff....its some other unwanted type of 'left overs'.

The BC government plans to review the liquor laws it introduced last April.
Three months ago, BC Liquor Stores started opening on Sundays, staff installed refrigeration, and wine hit the grocery stores.
In particular, though, John Yap, parliamentary secretary for liquor reform, says he'll look at the wholesale pricing model that was introduced.
"One of the things we've heard from some of the producers is the impact of the mark-up. We're keeping an eye on that."
Wine retailers have said the new wholesale model sent prices up, costing both business and consumers.
When asked how his review will affect retail prices, Yap said that's not something the government controls.

But the programme, boldly scheduled at 7pm on Saturdays, attracted just 4.3 million viewers on its debut two weeks ago - about half the number the channel's most successful offerings, like Blind Date, have achieved in the same slot. For the second outing last weekend the numbers fell further still, to a woeful 3.1 million. It was described as "ITV's worst night in years".
This would amount to total disaster were it not for the fact that one key group is actually quietly celebrating what ITV has done: the advertisers. The new programme has brought the chance to reach a very elusive audience, and male-oriented companies like Ford, Nissan, Seat, Adidas, Carling, Heineken and The Famous Grouse have been quick to respond: happy to pay around £50,000 for every 30 seconds of airtime they buy.
Andrew Canter of Media Planning Group, whose clients include Orange and Intel, said: "It's not a question just of audience numbers but of their profiles, which are actually pretty good. They are bringing in a younger, richer audience of men than ITV has had at this time before. There is work to be done if the figures are only at three to four million but then it takes time for people to adapt to new scheduling like this: if you put Coronation Street on Channel 4 next week I'm sure it would instantly lose half its audience but slowly recover. The Premiership is still a programme I'll be buying into on behalf of my clients."
Andy Roberts, who as broadcast director of Starcom Motive buys ad time for Levi's, Stella Artois, Heineken and others, said: "You can't go wrong with Premiership football presented by Des Lynam. Match of the Day was an institution but people do change their media habits, they just get emotional when certain pillars of broadcasting - like the football or News at Ten - are moved. Anyway, it's very early days. You need to wait for cold November nights before you can properly judge their performance."
At MediaVest, whose clients include John Smith's bitter, Walker's Crisps and Foster's lager, deputy managing director Nick Theakstone said: "It's a new audience. Of course we'd like it to be bigger but it's early days."
Lucas Cridland, TV buying manager at Walker Media, said: "Our analysis shows that the audience for The Premiership has been almost exactly the same as for that of MotD, both in numbers and in social groupings, and it's only two weeks into this.
"There has been a lot of hostility aimed at ITV but it has taken a positive move and it is offering advertisers for the first time time a weekly opportunity to reach a key target audience."
It's possible, of course, that those who have bought ad space in The Premiership want to justify their investment. But they have an unexpected ally at the BBC. The corporation's own media correspondent has been persuaded that ITV's football show at 7pm may have a longer future than many have predicted.
Nick Higham, writing in the corporation's in-house Ariel magazine, put it this way: "ITV's gamble may still pay off. The reason is a commercial one. Because men watch less television than women generally, advertisers will pay more to appear in the programmes they do watch, like football. What advertisers really want is the younger, higher-spending men (including teenage boys) who are likely to watch The Premiership."
Certainly this has proved the case since ITV took Formula One rights from the BBC. Its ad breaks now feature up-market, male-oriented advertisers like BMW, Audi, Saab and Jaguar, and its hold on the rights looks secure. The Premiership hopes to attract this calibre of advertiser itself, in time.
Most media experts consider the 3.1 million disaster, on the hottest day of the bank holiday weekend, a one-off blip and say that four million is probably a better figure to judge by. This only has to climb to five million, they say, to make the current slot sustainable, and ITV says it is convinced that it will.
The network desperately needs its football initiative to succeed. The Premiership rights are costing £61 million a year, with its other footballing commitments - the Champions League, Worthington Cup and Nationwide League - adding another £30 million to the bill. This represents a massive 12 per cent of the network's £750 million annual budget for programme making.
There is one essential reason why the company is so keen to keep The Premiership at 7pm: there is nowhere else to put it. The deal it signed guarantees its flagship Saturday show will start between 7pm and 10pm - earlier than MotD which went out at around 10.30pm. Were The Premiership to go at 8pm, it would be head-to-head with the BBC's winning card, Casualty. At 9pm or 10pm, it would skew the opportunity to put on big films and dramas.
The months leading up to Christmas, the most lucrative in the calender for advertising sales, will prove critical. Advertising revenues generally are falling and the network won't want to carry The Premiership for long if it is failing to earn its keep. Yet the consequences of moving it would be expensive in themselves: at the very least ITV would be forced to renegotiate or even lose its £18 million sponsorship deal with Coca-Cola.
ITV defends the audience figures to date: new shows need to build audiences slowly, it says, and The Premiership has been on during school and family holidays, competing against the BBC's unsustainable "stunt scheduling" - celebrity versions of The Weakest Link. What's more, it has had to do without Manchester United, the love-them-or-hate-them team reckoned to add at least a million extra viewers to any football broadcast.
"A programme like MotD is an institution and people feel they have a stake in it even though they rarely watched it," said an ITV spokesman. "When we replaced World In Action with Tonight With Trevor McDonald there was the same sort of furore. But three years on, the new programme gets three times the number of viewers the old one did. Tonight is now a serious player. We think The Premiership will be too."
This is a good comparison because The Premiership has received the kind of critical mauling that greeted Tonight.
The Premiership had too much gimmickry, the critics said, there was too much chat and not enough action and - the most consistent charge - there were too many adverts.
Much of this is undoubtedly justified. ITV points out that the amount of adverts it is allowed to show is strictly controlled by the Independent Television Commission (ITC), and is no greater than during a normal peak broadcast. But the Coca-Cola segments featuring footballers' families - "break bumpers" as they are known - come out of programme airtime rather than ad time and lend the whole show an air of commercialism MotD never had.
ITV says it is responding to claims the programme itself didn't work: the second show dropped much that had been blamed for the hostile reception of the first and further "fine tunings" are still being worked on.
Other criticisms, like the replacement of the familiar MotD theme tune by a pop song, U2's Beautiful Day, seem to confirm ITV's case that much of the hostility The Premiership has faced has to do with sentimentality.
Heavily criticised in the past itself for losing its sporting "crown jewels", the BBC has come out of all this smelling of roses, its reputation as the home of quality sports broadcasting confirmed.
Tomorrow night, the corporation will do everything it can to reinforce this view. The crucial England World Cup qualifier game in Germany is undoubtedly the biggest match the public network will have this season. Despite the presence of competent German camera crews and a big team from Sky, the BBC is still, at vast expense, sending some 80 staff to cover the match and starting its live programme 50 minutes before kickoff.
In the longer term, the BBC's excellence may be largely irrelevant to the future of football on television. With each three-minute commercial break on ITV recouping £300,000 of its outlay, the publicly-funded corporation cannot realistically compete.
There is no doubt the Premiership's initial viewing figures have caused real fear at ITV but the network seems to be telling the truth when it says it intends holding its nerve over the 7pm slot. After all, it has little-choice and won't shift the show unless it absolutely has to.
Ultimately ITV won't care about its critics as long as those lucrative young men keep watching and one in three or four of them can persuade their girlfriends to watch too. This would see them hit the crucial five million mark.
Commentator Jon Champion, who defected from the BBC this summer to join The Premiership, remains optimistic that he has joined a winning team but recognises there is a doomsday scenario: "This is a very interesting time for all involved in broadcasting football. If the viewing figures don't get up to the level ITV are after it won't be just a reflection on us, but on the product - football itself," he said.
The British game is now built on a bubble, its economy dependent on perpetual boom. The recent Deloitte & Touche report on football finance showed that 16 clubs spent more than 100 per cent of their income on spiralling players' wages. The one thing certain to burst the bubble will be the moment, should it ever come, when the public decides that it has had too much of this good thing.
If that day does arrive, then football rights packages will no longer sell for hundreds of millions of pounds. And if that happens the familiar sight of the world's wealthiest league attracting the world's best players - Fulham this week made £11.5 million French striker Steve Marlet just the latest in a very long line of exotic imports - will be over and it will be our own football stars, the David Beckhams and Michael Owens, who will be heading abroad to earn their fortunes.

This small scale hammer is usually considered a toy although it could certainly have been used for small jobs. The head of the hammer is cast steel which is nickel plated. The head is attached to a wood handle which has a green finish and is secured by a metal wedge in the end.
It measures about 7 ½" long and the head measures about 2 3/8" from the hammer face to the back of the ball end. The plating is generally good with a little pitting and the flat end of the head is roughly finished with minimal plating. The head is a little loose on the handle but not to the point of coming off. The color on the handle is more like a stain rather than a paint and there are some dark, stained areas on the handle.

I have isolated the problem down to the calls to String.intern() that are used to allow for quick string comparisons of field names throughout Lucene. These String.intern() calls are unnecessary and can be replaced with a hashmap lookup. In fact, StringHelper.java has its own hashmap implementation that it uses in conjunction with String.intern(). Rather than using a one-off hashmap, I've elected to use a ConcurrentHashMap in this patch. -- This message is automatically generated by JIRA.

The dentist couple Rajesh Talwar and Nupur Talwar on Wednesday broke down soon after a special court in Ghaziabad rejected her bail plea in the case relating to the murder of their daughter Aarushi and domestic help Hemraj.
While Nupur sobbed uncontrollably in the jail as soon as she was told about the rejection of her bail, Rajesh broke into tears outside the court as soon as special CBI judge Shyam Lal pronounced the order.
Other women inmates of barrack no 13 of the jail, where Nupur is lodged, and women wardens tried to console Nupur.
Jail Superintendent Viresh Raj Sharma said it is a very common thing to get a heavy shock after on hearing about bail rejection as Nupur was very hopeful of being released from jail on Wednesday.
He said Nupur was offereed a cup of tea but she continued to sob.

Embarrassed over mounting allegations of sale of party tickets in Karnataka, the Congress has widened the scope of its existing five-member panel, headed by defence minister AK Antony, to look into the charges.
Congress president Sonia Gandhi had constituted the high-powered committee on March 20 to coordinate and monitor the May 5 assembly elections in Karnataka.
The allegations of sale of tickets in about 20-25 constituencies has caused turmoil among Congress workers and leaders. Sensing Congress victory this time, the number of ticket seekers has increased substantially. There were around 2,500 aspirants for tickets to the 224 seats.
The charges have affected the campaigning and the party's state headquarters in Bangalore has been witnessing protests over the past several days and also given the ruling BJP a handle to attack the Congress.
Besides Antony, Ambika Soni, Vayalar Ravi, Luizinho Faleiro and Jitendra Singh are other members of the committee. Party general secretary in-charge of Karnataka Madhusudan Mistry, state unit president G Parmeshwara and CLP leader Siddharamiah are its ex-officio members.
The panel will now hold consultations with the disgruntled leaders and try to address their grievances. Congress sources did not rule out minor changes in the party's first list of 177 candidates. The second list of the remaining 47 candidates is expected to be out in the next few days after the Congress president's return from abroad.
The party had already deputed fresh team observers to these constituencies to get details about the potential candidates.

As one of the leading orthopedic surgeons for robotic spine surgery in New Jersey, Dr. Joshua S. Rovner M.D. is on the cutting-edge of making spinal surgery both safer and less invasive. With a focus in specializing in minimally-invasive techniques, Dr. Rovner is board-certified by the American Board of Orthopedic Surgeons to practice in states for New York and New Jersey.
If you are thinking about spine surgery, it is worth considering robotic spinal surgery. Robotic spinal surgery is not only safer, but also more precise, resulting in smaller incisions and quicker recovery. Visit our contact page to schedule a consultation with Dr. Rovner, a leading robotic spine surgeon in NJ. Or learn more about the process and technology Dr. Rovner uses for robotic spinal surgery procedures.
Robotic Spine Surgery: Greater Precision & Safety
Among the significant developments and innovations in the field of medicine, few advancements have been greater than robotic spine surgery. As the flagship technology to this advancement, the Mazor Renaissance Robot is recognized in the medical field for its highly level of precision and safety in the practice of neurosurgery and orthopedic surgery.
In standard surgical operation of the spine, the spinal surgeon is responsible for determining the ideal placement for screws (based on x-ray imaging taken prior to the surgical procedure.) However, during the actual spine surgery procedure, the surgeon must rely on his or her best judgment, feel, and experience in order to properly place the screws.
Unfortunately, x-rays provide a limited picture, and there is often some degree of risk in misplacing the screws, especially with lesser experienced spine surgeons. The slightest misplacement can result in serious consequences, such as persisting pain, restricted mobility, and even paralysis.
With all forms of spine surgery there are risks. However, robotic spine surgery is dramatically much safer and more precise than standard spinal surgery operations. Utilizing robotic spinal surgery can significantly enhance screw placement precision to an accuracy of 1mm. Not only does this minimizes the risk for misplacement, but it also reduces pain and recovery time for patients. Further, accurate screw placement using robotic spine surgery also minimizes risks for postoperative issues long after the surgery procedure has taken place.
Pros & Cons of Robotic Spinal Surgery
Spinal surgery is not only intricate and challenging compared to other forms of surgery, but it is also a surgical procedure that carries the most risk. While x-rays can be helpful at reducing the potential for screw misplacement, unforeseen factors like a patient's anatomy and bone quality can increase risks for human error. In short, the most minor of mistakes can be dramatically magnified when the spinal cord is involved. As a result, a procedure (like robotic spine surgery) that increases precision and minimizes risk is hugely valuable.
While robotic spinal surgery techniques are still relatively new developments, they have been shown to result in safer and less invasive spinal surgeries. Leveraging robotic guidance such as the Mazor Renaissance Robot, spine surgeons can lower screw misplacement occurrences by 10%. Furthermore, the risk for nerve damage using robotic spinal surgery drops by 2% compared to other traditional spine surgery techniques. Overall, robotic spinal surgery can improve the rate of proper screw placement by up to 98%, which makes it the safest and most dependable form of spinal surgery.
When you pursue robotic spinal surgery with New Jersey spine surgeon Dr. Rovner, you can realize the following benefits:
- Significantly increased precision for screw placement
- Faster recovery time
- Reduced exposure to radiation (for repeat x-rays)
- Less post-operative complications
- Minimized risks for permanent nerve damage
Although the technology and procedures behind robotic spine surgery have revolutionized the world of orthopedics and neurosurgery, all forms of spinal surgery have potential risks and drawbacks. Because this type of spine surgery is still in its early phases of development, it is only offered by few spine surgeons in New Jersey. Further, not all orthopedic surgeons are qualified to use robotic guidance systems.
If you're considering spine surgery, it is worth looking into robotic spine surgery as a viable option for your spinal condition. This is simply because robotic spine surgery procedures are so incredibly safe, precise and effective. For more information about robotic spine surgery in New Jersey, or to schedule a consultation with Dr. Rovner, visit our contact us page or call (201) 227-1299.

I love changing up pillows on my couch with the seasons. I keep the same pillow forms and just change out the covers. I am very excited about using the running stitch as a decorative accent, and you can see where I pieced in some Essex linen in these Jasmine Panel pillows to stitch on. You see the stitching everywhere.
I found out it is called the Kantha Stitch and comes from West Africa. These days, you see it on textiles from India too. It is very easy to do with six strand embroidery floss or size 8 perle cotton thread. Last week end, my seven year old granddaughter was in Sisters and saw me stitching, and wanted to do her own. So now I am helping her with a blanket for her American Girl doll.
Happy Stitching!
Today is one of those winter days I am not fond of... it's cold, raining and the roads are icy. A good day to be in the studio.
A good day to sit by the fire with a nice cup of tea and do some Kantha Stitching. I have also heard this stitching called, Big Stitch or Running Stitch.... My friend from South Africa taught me...
All you need is two pieces of fabric - fat 1/4's are a great way to start and then you can turn it into a cute pillow. Embroidery thread or pearl cotton for stitching, and a needle. (I personally need a needle threader sometimes) and some scissors. Thread and needle for a quick basting.
This is one of my in progress pieces... I am going to turn this into a pillow once the stitching is all done. One of the great things about this technique you can put it down and pick it up months later without worrying about a pattern...(my current problem with knitting projects)
If you are working on something bigger than a cocktail napkin you are going to want to baste the two layers together. You can use a few safety pins or needle and thread. Using a needle and thread stitch the two layers together with large stitches, you don't need a ton of basting just to keep the two layers from slipping while you get the first few rows of Kantha stitching done.
Cut a 12" ish length of thread. Knot the end and either nest it between the two layers or through both layers so the knot is on the back. Your first row you will want to be straight. I fold my piece and finger press a line to follow when I am stitching. Very scientific!
It is this simple....
Now for all the fun things I am making or have made....
I think this will be a table runner when its all stitched...
Little cocktail napkins!! These remind me of Morocco and the cool napkins they have at Peacock Pavilions.
Pillows...Out of Mystic canvas and Mystic cotton.
Hope this finds its way into your tool box of techniques that you use when you create.
The winner of the Mystic bundle is..... Barb in MI (you have been e-mailed)
AND because I really love giving things I am going to do another give away from this blog post....
Just leave a comment and I will announce the winner on Fridays blog....
If you have not noticed, "blue" (especially the indigo blues) are making a comeback, as colors do. I am seeing them in interiors, fashion and in quilting and crafts. I was fortunate to make a trip to Japan in the fall of 2013, as featured artist at the Yokohama Quilt Festival. Being in Japan for ten days was amazing and I fell in love with indigo. Near the end of the trip, I went to the "Blue and White" store in Tokyo and spent a lot of money.
Wanting to capture the essence of Japan from my trip, I isolated these tiny treasures I collected and indigo became the foundation color for the piece. The acid type of green was a wonderful companion, as was orange in this piece.
Valori Wells was captured by the indigo bug, and paired it with some greys and white in this intuitive pieced quilt that she created for Aurafil Threads. It is a free download pattern on the Stitchin' Post website under Free Patterns.
The idea of a traditional log cabin beginning in the center and working out is how Val proceeded. Pay attention to how she distributed the value changes to make the piece interesting.
But, what really topped it off is the Kantha style stitching that she did with Aurafil embroidery thread.

Happy Friday!
Today is my first post of Inspired by....
I had the honor of staying at the Peacock Pavilions in Marrakesh, Morocco. This place is MAGIC... While staying there you travel from house to house and tent to tent through the olive groves over paths. These are unique paths, each step is either too close or too far apart so that you are conscious of every step you take. You are present! My biggest goal and desire while I was in Morocco was to be present, soak in every moment. From my room in the morning I walked through these olive trees to the main house for breakfast. Starting my day being present in the moment.... this has stayed with me and I am so grateful for Maryam and Chris for creating such a unique and magical place.
My Path through the olive grove.
The Path to the artist tent.
The Path to our house.
I knew I would make a quilt at some point based on my love of these paths and the colors of Peacock Pavilions.....
At the beginning of the year Robert Kaufman asked if I would design a quilt out of their Essex Linen to show at market. Of course I said yes.... I LOVE, LOVE, LOVE working with Essex Linen! As I looked through the colors I realized that this was the quilt that I would make to honor those paths!
Some of the beautiful colors from Peacock Pavilions...
Dinner in a traditional Arabian Tent.... This was our first night there and was the most fun experience... the floors are covered in soft Moroccan rugs you sit on firm embroidered pillows... with soft lighting and bougainvillea hanging from the lights. The tent is covered in traditional Moroccan stencil designs. Seriously how could you not start off your experience with this and not be in LOVE with Peacock Pavilions!!
The Main house...
From the rooftop of our house looking towards the main house over the olive grove.
I loved the nights at Peacock, the pool would darken as the sun went down, the lights would start to glow in the seating area and everything would slowly turn into an Indigo night... so beautiful.
So.... drum roll...... the quilt....
Paths of Peacock Pavilions (photographed on the canyon at our house)
I quilted Olive leaves and Olives all over the paths. I am truly in love with this quilt... the memories of such a special place that helped my path to changing the need to always think about what is next or what I have to do or, or, or to being present and in the moment. Enjoying my children and my husband in the moment! It brings tears to my eyes because I am so full filled by this by the love I receive and give by being in the moment.
I hope you have a magical day!!!
Here is a great description of Peacock Pavilions from their web site. They are amazing people!
"Peacock Pavilions is a handmade, artisanal boutique hotel in an olive grove on the outskirts of Marrakesh. Part of the M.Montague offerings, Peacock Pavilions was designed and built by American blogger and designer, Maryam Montague, and her American husband, Chris Redecke.
The hotel, like the rest of M.Montague brand, supports Project Soar, a non-profit organization established the couple to uplift underprivileged communities, especially its girls and women, through art, and fitness. 10 % of profits from Peacock Pavilions go to sourcing Project Soar.
Maryam, her husband, and two children continue to live at Peacock Pavilions where they share their own slice of a Marrakesh oasis with resident peacocks Maurice, Persephone and Gigi, five cats, one mischievous yellow lab, and any guests lucky enough to be stopping through."

My uncle left me and my brother his house when he passed away.
Resolved Question:
My uncle left me and my brother his house when he passed away. The house was in my brothers name but the will spelled it all out. My brother is now stating that after the
are settled that his accountant stated that he can only give me 13k a year, NOT MY PORTION, as a gift until all the money is gone or give me my share at 35% penelty. Is this true?

R. Klein, EA
replied 5 years ago.
Your question is more to do with legalities of the will than taxes.
The $13K he refers to is a
gift tax
exemption. He is telling you that to avoid GIFT tax on your brother, he can only gift you $13K per year. This is only half-true.
He can gift you an amount up to a million dollars in one year, but he would need to file a
gift tax return
to claim part of his lifetime exemption. If your brother's entire estate is less than a million dollars, this will not affect him now or later in life. If we're talking about a $100K, again, he can file the gift tax return and he will be
from the gift tax.
Recipients never pay gift tax.
The first question I would ask an attorney, though, is whether he needs to split the
of the house in the first place, which it sounds like he must. There is no gift or
estate tax
on this
. It needs to be titled properly.
Your uncle probably made the mistake of willing the house to both of you, meaning neither can sell it or do anything without the other's agreement. His intent was to give you half the value each, not to take a chain saw and split the house in two halves.
As such, he has made a mess, I am sure, and quite unintended.
Ask Your Own Tax Question
replied 5 years ago.
The house was transferred into my brothers name from my uncle years ago. When my uncle passed the will clearly
that the house is to be divided 50/50. My brother today told my son that he has to go to the accountant this weekend and give him some papers and they will tell him what he has to pay in taxes to the state/fed on the house. He said that he can only give me (my half of the house) 13 or 14k per year, as a gift from my uncle (even though it was not in his name) or I can take my half and pay a 35% penalty. I heard my brother once say that they did not know if they were going to do the taxes from when my uncle owned the house or when it was transferred to by brother.
R. Klein, EA
replied 5 years ago.
Your brother may have owned the house legally BEFORE your Uncle passed away, meaning it was not your Uncle's to give away in his will!
Again, there is no reason for a 35% penalty on anything here.
If your bother wants to gift you half the house, he can do so without paying ANY tax or ANY penalty or ANYTHING other than his accountant who does not see you as his
if he uses his gift-tax exemption. Your brother's accountant can charge an extra couple hundred bucks to do the gift tax return.

No Sir... The house went from my uncle to my brother about 4 years ago. It was never owned by anyone else. In my uncles will it stated that everything was divided 50/50 between me and my brother.
R. Klein, EA
replied 5 years ago.
If your brother did not get the house until Uncle died, you need to contact a lawyer to get the house titled in both your names. This is not a question of tax at this point.

What's your favorite whole grain?
7 comments
My new favorite is green
My new favorite is green wheat, sold under trad name freekeh. Easy to fix, loaded with protein, tasty, toasty flavor that mixes well with fruits (think grilled apricots, peaches, or figs) and veggies. Generally,I like most whole grains. Sharon Gilbert (The Travel Cook.com)
I love buckwheat. I cook it
I love buckwheat. I cook it (make sure it's not too mushy, grains need to be pretty dry and falling apart) after roasting the grain. Then I fry an onion (I use a mix of sunflower oil and European-style butter) until golden and crispy and add it to the grain along with a few chopped hard-boiled eggs. It's delicious!
I like Flax. Also, A
I like Flax. Also, A flax seed floating on an eyeball will collect grit etc and when easily removed leaves your eye clean and comfortable. I have tried this many times. My dad helped us this way when we wew kids on the farm in North Dakota, where most flax is grown.
I like popcorn and never
I like popcorn and never think of it as a whole grain. I usually sprinkle it with my favorite curry powder mixed with sea salt. It's so good! I also like barley in home made beef soup and in my gramma's ham and vegetable barley soup.

Thank you to everyone who shared their excitement on last week's introduction to Madalynne Studios. I'm stocked too! I've slowly moved in before and after work this week (photo above shows an in progress shot; I'm going for a mid-century modern look) and once everything is together, I will give you a formal tour. Bekuh and I are collaborating this Sunday for our first shoot in the space. No time to waste getting started!
A few friends and readers emailed me expressing their interest in hosting workshops and sewing lessons at the studio. Great idea! I originally planned the studio to be used mostly for photography, but there's been such interest in other possibilities. Out-of-towners even said they would travel if a bra making or other type of 2-day session was held. The ideas of what I can do in this space have been flooding in all week. I envision Blogshop but for sewing, and I see both myself and other notable sewers/indie pattern makers coming to the studio to teach. Sara, an amazing Philly events coordinator, and I have a date in early June to discuss logistics.
But before I commit, I would like to have a gauge of attendance. I also want to open up the discussion to workshop topics. So, in the comments below or via email, let me know if you'd be willing to join and what you want to learn. I'm all ears!
Nothing is set in stone yet, but exciting times are ahead.

Hi! I live in Philly, and I'd be totally down with coming to a workshop! I've recently been making some tailored jackets, and while I think they look pretty good, they could be even better. I'd love to have a tutorial on tailoring techniques–fitting tips, pad-stitching, etc. Also, something on pattern drafting. I'm usually just too lazy to make too many alterations to existing patterns, but I'd like that to change so I could better customize what I'm doing. Maybe, like, a tutorial on common pattern alterations? Congrats on the new space. Have fun!
Maddie Flanigan
Thanks for the suggestion. I'll take it into mind. I love hearing that you live in the area!
Amanda Russell
Being in Vancouver, I'm a teensy bit too far to visit in person, but I wanted to share my congratulations at your finding a new space!! 🙂 *hugs!*

Oh my goodness yes, I'd love to come to your studio for a workshop!! This new space has such exciting potential for you 🙂

Capable, decisive and organized, your Extraverted Thinker (ETJ) will most likely be at the pinnacle of business as an adult. ESTJ and ENTJ children like to be in control and enjoys situations that challenge and stimulate them within the context of interacting with a variety of people. Ambitious by nature, this type of child thrives on competition and public accolades. The extraverted thinking child believes that behavior should be logical and probably finds listening to another person's perspective to be challenging. People probably often guess that extraverted thinking kids are older than their chronological ages.
Ambitious by nature, the Extraverted Thinker (ETJ) thrives on competition and public accolades. It's important to get this child into groups that help them channel their abundant energy so that they don't let it escalate into overaggression.
Homework Approach/Tactics
- This child has a gift for the analytical and relishes problem solving and likes to find flaws in ideas or plans. Use this innate talent to help your extraverted thinking child edit initial homework drafts and understand how he ro she can make not just this, but future assignments even better.
- A natural debater, an extraverted thinker has a natural gift for justifying answers and defending positions. As such, if your ESTJ or ENTJ child earns a low score or grade, be sure to ask the teacher to be specific with critiques so that you can help him overcome issues in the future.
- The consummate planner, an extroverted thinker may become anxious or distressed when juggling multiple long-term assignments. If he is given a single deadline for an assignment, work with your extroverted thinking child to develop interim steps and deadlines so that he or she can play to the ETJs strength of approaching multiple assignments like an endurance runner instead of a sprinter.
- Encourage your child to complete homework as early as possible, so that he or she doesn't encounter undue stress related to bedtime, favorite show coming on, etc. In this same vein, be sure to let this student know when time is almost up for completing an activity (e.g. 5 minute warning).
- This student likes to adhere to boundaries and rules and may label you "unfair" if homework rules are not enforced equally for all siblings in the family.
Learning-Based Interactions with Others
- This student learns well from study groups, as verbalizing thoughts helps this student think through problems.
- Ensure this student is in a quiet part of the house when working through a particularly difficult assignment, as other noises and conversations can be extremely distracting.
Study & Life Skills Development
- Encourage this child to accept both success and defeat with grace. Help your child develop an appreciation of other's merits—not simply focus what needs to be corrected.
- Help your child develop completion plans for long-term assignments and, should something come up that interferes with the original plan, help them to develop an alternate one. Introducing this student to tools like OpenProj or Microsoft Project can prove to be extremely beneficial tools.
- Helping this student to develop coping mechanisms when things don't go as planned is one of the greatest gifts you can give your extroverted thinker. Kidzmet® recommends layering your child's Multiple Intelligence preferences to help take your child's feelings of frustration, anger or fear to a more joyful, peaceful place.
