Ripper Of A Speech Blasts Competition.....
The following speech was given by 6th grader Sophie Paterson at the Central
Hawke's Bay Primary Schools Rotary speech competition in New Zealand.
Hi, today I am going to talk to you about farts.
Some people think farts are rude and some people think farts are funny, like
I think farts are hilarious.
Farting is a fact of life. Everybody farts. The Queen farts, superstars fart
and I fart. We will fart until the day we die.
And apparently a person can still fart after death!!
Do you know why we fart?
Flatulence, wind or farts, whatever you like to call them, is the production
of the mixture of gases in the digestive tract, that are by products of the
digestive process.
The average person farts about 14 times a day, which produces about half a
litre of fart gas. (Personally, I think I fart more than 14 times a day).
Farts are made up of the following: Nitrogen, the main ingredient making up
59 percent; next behind is hydrogen at 21 percent; 9 percent carbon dioxide;
7 percent methane, 3 percent oxygen and 1 percent other stuff.
But listen to this - hydrogen sulphide is the compound that makes them
Here are the top 10 farter's:
1. Termites
2. Camels
3. Zebras and my pony Free
4. Sheep
5. Cows
6. Elephants
7. Labradors and retrievers
8. Humans (vegetarians)
9. Humans (non-vegetarians)
10. Gerbils (also known as the
desert rat)
If If you are going to fart, do not sit by flames, because farts are very
Also, they can come motoring out of your body at 10 kmh.
No wonder some of you have holes in your undies!
Please do not panic if you find yourself trapped in a small space like a
closet, as it is impossible to suffocate in your own farts. Unless Ben (my
little brother) is in there with you!
Anyway next time you fart, don't think it's rude. Just know that
everybottie, oops, I mean, everybody, farts.
Thank you for listening to my fartastic speech.
Here's a little poem that I'd like to share with you.
It gives the body ease.
It warms the bed in winter
And suffocates the fleas."

I'm a warm-hearted, old-school gentleman explorer with really cool toys. INTJ. Browncoat.

Oak on Winter SunriseI hiked through a frost-covered meadow in the morning to get up under this tree. And it was one of those meadows with very long grasses that formed little frosty mounds. They gave way with each step with the sound of a tiny crunch that spring back up after you pass. But the moisture is so light and cool, it is not even noticed until you look down and see your shoes have a slick coating of their own.
I then got up underneath this old oak tree with my wide-angle lens, aiming it in the direction of the rising sun. Because I was so deep in the valley, the sun did not crest for another three hours, but the light dithered in different ways the whole time.

Welcome to the FMU School of Business website. We have a very active and capable student body more than 600 strong. Our faculty are excellent teachers, prominent scholars, and are concerned with student achievement. Our undergraduate and graduate programs are AACSB - International accredited - this means that these programs have the stamp of approval equivalent to most major business schools in the country. Let me highlight just a few of the activities that set the FMU School of Business apart.
In addition to strong academic programs, students are active in philanthropic and other learning experiences. The School sponsors a number of very active clubs. The Marketing Club sponsors speakers and programs on job searching, etiquette, and other important life skills beyond the traditional classroom.

This team placed third in this national competition in its first ever appearance. Students gain experiential learning by assisting community businesses through participation in projects with the Donald E. Kelley Small Business Institute. In addition, we encourage our students to gain valuable work experience while they are earning their degree through internships.
A growing number of FMU business students are taking advantage of the university's study abroad programs. Business students have spent time studying and working in Germany, Mexico, and Australia.
The FMU School of Business faculty have impressive resumes. The faculty regularly publish scholarly research papers in professional journals, present scholarly addresses at national and regional professional meetings, and publish books and cases that supplement class presentations. The faculty work to make the FMU business programs of the highest quality possible.

As a kid, one of the best parts of going to the doctor's office -- okay, the only good part -- is the waiting room full of toys, and as we all know, a waiting room isn't a waiting room without the wooden roller coaster toy.

text: VIENNA, Va., Nov. 15, 2012 /PRNewswire/ -- Celebrated for his vision, strategy, and energy as the head of the largest Hispanic-Owned IT Integrator in the U.S., MicroTech President & CEO, Tony Jimenez, was awarded PODER Magazine's PODER-ABC* Entrepreneurship Award last night at the PODER Business Awards in Miami, Florida. PODER, the foremost magazine aimed at influential, innovative, and collaborative leaders who focus on Hispanic and Latin American policies in the U.S., has sold over 400,000 copies in the U.S. alone. Their nonprofit "think-do tank," The Americas Business Council ( abc*) Foundation, identifies and supports leaders and policies that promote peace, sustainability and prosperity. Together, they recognized Jimenez for his entrepreneurial gem, MicroTech, along with his many contributions to the Veteran and Hispanic communities. The PODER Business Awards honoring America's leaders since 2002 revels entrepreneurs not only because they can launch a successful company, but also for what they do with their profits. "The PODER Business Awards recognize so much more than individual accomplishments. They serve to show that making a positive difference often starts with a simple gesture," said Jimenez . "I applaud PODER for taking the time and effort to celebrate those who make a difference in the world and I am honored and humbled to be a recipient of such a distinguished award."

Wakeboarding technology is better than ever and the major companies involved are pushing the limits year-after-year so that we can pop higher off the wake, ride rails, and cruise the cable park. ActiveWake.com carries all the wakeboarding gear you need to get out on the water and have fun. Shop the latest wakeboarding gear from Ronix, Liquid Force, Slingshot, and Hyperlite.
Ronix 2017 One Timebomb- New I-Beam Construction
For the past 17 years, nobody has defined the progression of a classic 3-stage rocker more than Danny Harf and his signature series. His latest bestseller takes an explosive snap and adds Speedwalls. Having less resistance with the water means less strain on your body, giving longer boat sessions and increased top water speed. New for 2017, with a core featuring I-Beam Construction that ignites like no other.
• 3-Stage Rocker

Slingshot 2016 Oli Wakeboard
Regular Price: $499.00
Special Price: $349.30
the big dogs can get in on the action too. Oli's board features subtle hourglass shaped Naca Tech channels in the tip and tail and chined rails to create big acceleration into the wake. While these features have massive benefits on edge, they are subtle enough that the board transforms perfectly into a rail park favorite.
The medium flex pattern of the Oli means it's a perfect crossover option for boat and cable, allowing for great presses in the park and plenty of pop and cushion for takeoffs and landings behind the boat. Just like the man who it's built for, this board packs a lot of punch.
New for all 2016 Slingshot wakeboards is a revamped version of our industry-first Fastrack mounting system. The G10 Fortified Fastrack is inlaid deeper into the board than our previous system and is locked in place by a thick layer of G10 – an insanely strong glass/epoxy composite. The result is a significantly stronger and more resilient Fastrack system built to withstand the ever-rising demands of the world's most progressive riders. Learn More
Liquid Force 2016 Remedy
Regular Price: $429.99
Special Price: $319.99
Slingshot 2017 Whip Wakeboard
• Fast board-speed eases line tension on the water
• Excels at both park and boat riding
• Medium flex great for air tricks and kicker landings
• Big pop off the wake
2017 Whip: One of the most difficult feats in wakeboard design is achieving an ideal balance between traction and speed; one is often sacrificed to achieve the other. The Whip, however, has both, thanks to Slingshot's signature NACA Tech Channels. These precision laser-cut channels increase the board's traction on edge without sacrificing glide speed. With the Whip, you can enjoy the best of both worlds: speed and freedom on rails, with reliable traction when edging. The Whip has a medium flex pattern which gives it a strong pop off the wake and plenty of snap off the water for big ollies. Learn More

Regular Price: $419.99
Special Price: $279.99

• Board of choice for X -Games Champions, the Shredtown Crew
2017 Shredtown: The 2017 Shredtown has been overhauled to include our NEW tapered Flex Tips and a smooth new tip shape. When it comes to park and street style riding, the Shredtown Crew and their pro model board are blazing the trail into the future. A continuous rocker makes the Shredtown fast and efficient for short run-ups, while chined rails, Fusion Sidewalls and the new Ballistic Base give the board the bomber durability the Shredtown crew demands. Learn More
Ronix 2017 One ATR Wakeboard
Designed off of the same shape as the One Timebomb featuring the most iconic 3-stage lift, and a profile with the least amount of resistance with the water. A new less expensive construction for the rider that wants the combination of the hole shot response of last year's carbon version, and the smoothness of a ATR "S". All the while assembled in our most durable shell. Danny Harf's latest best selling freeride inspired shape.

The EZ Detail Brush is designed to clean the intricate ins and outs of motorcycles and the Mini goes even deeper! The inner workings of a motorcycle are all exposed to the outside world. Dirt and grime hide in all the nooks and crannies where it can be seen but not cleaned. To solve this common problem, the EZ Detail Brush Mini was invented to squeeze into the tight places and thoroughly clean these surfaces without scratching the metal.
The EZ Detail Brush Mini cleans between spokes, pipes, forks, and all other intricate car and motorcycle surfaces.
The EZ Detail Brush Mini measures 2.5" wide and 13" long. However, the bristles flatten to allow the brush to fit virtually anywhere. Use the EZ Detail Brush Mini to clean between spokes, grills, pipes, around bumpers, mufflers, engines, between the forks, by the chain, and anywhere else that conventional cleaning tools will not fit.

Apple launched its next-gen tablet, the new iPad, yesterday at a San Francisco event. Among the standout features includes a Retina display with 2048×1536 resolution, meaning that the new iPad has 1 million more pixels than a 1080p HDTV. Further, the device packs a dual-core CPU, a quad-core A5X graphics processor, LTE support, worldwide 3G support, and 10-hour battery life (nine hours on 4G). I expect that these upgrades will undoubtedly be enough to attract consumers and enterprises alike and further consolidate Apple's resounding tablet market leadership globally.
So what will be the impact of the new iPad on the rapidly evolving telecom industry? I believe it will disrupt the market due to the following:

Around 60,000 global movers and shakers of all things mobile once again descended upon Barcelona to attend the leading annual mobility event, the Mobile World Congress (MWC). This year's main themes centered on metadata analytics, the customer experience, and over-the top business models:
Posted by Sarah Rotman Epps on March 6, 2012
Apple's anticipated iPad update comes as the tablet market is white-hot. In a new report published for Forrester clients today, we've revised our US consumer tablet forecast upward: We now expect 112.5 million US adults to own a tablet in 2016, which will equal 34.3% of US adults. In Europe, the numbers are similarly impressive, with an expected 105.7 million tablet users, or 30.4% of consumers 16 and older, in the EU-7 by 2016. With an assumed replacement rate of two years, cumulative unit sales will be much higher: In the US, we forecast that consumers will buy 292.5 million tablets from 2010 to 2016.
Tablets are a global phenomenon—we estimate that US consumers constitute only 43% of Apple's 55 million iPads sold through the end of its last fiscal quarter, with the rest going to consumers and enterprises in the rest of the 90 countries where the iPad is now sold. Tablets are also a worker phenomenon: Although the No. 1 place where consumers use tablets is in the living room, 37% of US tablet owners take them to work as well. In a recent Forrester survey of 9,912 technology end users at SMBs and enterprises in 17 countries, we found that workers in BRIC countries (Brazil, Russia, India, China) and Mexico actually led demand for wanting to use a tablet for work—and being willing to share the cost of the device with their employers.

I have mixed feelings....
I just tried it about three weeks ago and was in hair heaven. I felt I had FINALLY found my HG! My waves were more like ringlets and were very uniform which is a big deal for me! I got results air drying that I usually have to diffuse to get. The texture is very runny which makes application tricky, but after two or three uses I was very pleased. It even gave me second day hair.
Alas, like everything else I've tried, it didn't last. Now it seems to tangle my hair and feels very producty. It dries more almost more gummy than crunchy, so I had a very hard time when I tried to SOTC. It also made my hair stringy- I couldn't get any clumps.
But I'm not giving up because it was so great initially- I may just not be applying it correctly. I say give it a shot, but I am a PJ and try everything! I was thrilled to see it at Walmart last week, and it's readily available at Target, so you can always return it if you don't like it. Good luck!

So the USA got beaten, quite badly, by Honduras. Does it matter? Imagewise, maybe - it can't be good for the USA to lose to little Honduras, can it? But does the defeat tell us anything about the USA's World Cup prospects, considering that Bob Bradley used 17 players, only two of whom -- Benny Feilhaber and Jonathan Bornstein, the two best performers on the night -- you might reasonably expect to be part of the USA's squad in South Africa?
Anyway, winning the game was not the point of this match-up, we have Bradley's words for that -- "The starting point for the game in January is always assessing players."
Looked at from that point of view, one player stands out as having spectacularly failed his test: Jimmy Conrad, who managed to collect two yellow cards in the first 18 minutes, and thus get himself ejected.
So the USA had to play with 10 men for over 72 minutes. The same question: did that matter? When you're assessing players in a tough game (that was Bradley's description), maybe you learn a bit more about the 10 players who stayed on the field than you would have otherwise done.
But it took only 18 minutes for Bradley to learn -- well, no, confirm should be the word surely, for Bradley ought to have already known this -- that Conrad is an inveterate fouler. A sly fouler. One has seen this over and again in MLS games -- the shirt-pulling, the elbowing, followed, of course, by the protests of innocence should the referee blow his whistle.
Yet here was Conrad, wearing the captain's armband. The fouls are bad enough -- but that they are almost unthinking makes Conrad a huge risk. His first foul on Saturday, where he got himself "accidentally" entangled with an opponent as Honduras was starting a breakaway is one that is specifically identified in the rule book as calling for a mandatory yellow. Referee Benito Archundia got it right and duly cautioned the wily Conrad. That, only 12 minutes later, Conrad would blatantly foul Jerry Palacios in the penalty area is simply beyond understanding. An off the ball foul, but Conrad's slyness must be failing him, for Archundia was well placed to see this one.
So a huge minus sign for Conrad, and one not much smaller for Marvell Wynne, who showed -- confirmed -- that he is a great athlete, but not that great a soccer player.
Whatever impressions Bradley may have gathered, most of them must have been of the negative variety. Sacha Kljestan again failed to live up to his billing, Jeff Cunningham was barely noticeable, and Chad Marshall looked anything but comfortable. If working hard without accomplishing very much is a worthy trait, then Kyle Beckerman, Robbie Rogers and Robbie Findley will all have impressed Bradley.
And amid the mediocrity, spare a thought for poor Benny Feilhaber, who can make a soccer game look like a soccer game, but who needs a minimum of consistently intelligent support. He didn't get it here.
Of the second-half subs, Brad Davis and Alejandro Bedoya looked lively and, more important, inventive; but by then the game, at 0-3, was already well and truly lost, and the Hondurans were hardly playing at full pressure.
There are legitimate excuses here -- particularly that the American players are out of season. But the most worrying part of the USA's performance was not a matter if fitness. It was, as usual, a matter of style.
Here was confirmation, for the umpteenth time, that when the subs, the second-rank players, get on the field, the USA looks like nothing so much as a college team. Athletic and reasonably competent, predictable and mostly banal, guileless and not infrequently clueless.
No doubt Bradley saw things a bit differently -- but it would not be possible to find too many positive angles here. Or would it? Is it possible that maybe one -- or possibly, two -- of these players, removed from this dysfunctional outfit and dumped in the middle of the real U.S. team, would be transformed into much better players?
Yes, of course it is. In the short-term -- i.e. as far as South Africa 2010 is concerned -- this game seems to me to be of little consequence for the national team. Bradley will select a couple of players from this mess for things they did or didn't do that he likes, and their presence will make little difference to the World Cup squad. That team, we know, is a lot better than what we saw on Saturday.
Nor, for that matter, does this game herald that much for the long-term prospects of American soccer. What we witnessed here were the fading embers of a generation of players who have given us decades of standard, straightforward soccer. There are newer players coming through, a different type of player, who can give us a much more sophisticated game. I mentioned Davis and Bedoya; I could also have mentioned Roger Espinoza of the Kansas City Wizards, who had a pretty good game.
But Espinoza, despite having spent the last 11 years of his life in the USA, plays for Honduras. Maybe he could have been on the U.S. team. Evidently the necessary attitudes and procedures to ensure that the USA at least evaluates talent like Espinoza's are still not fully effective.
But they will be, and then the national team coach -- it will not be Bob Bradley -- will be able to field B teams and reserve teams that do not reproduce the cliches of the college game.

Pepper Spray
> Police Magnum
Police Magnum
Since 1997, the only duty use pepper sprays we have offered on our site and in our catalog have been Fox Labs. This is because we have always had the attitude that for a few dollars more, people would always go for one of the best pepper sprays in the world. I was not implying that there were no other good sprays out there; just that for a few dollars more you could buy one of the best. Well I learned my lesson last year with a few test items on the site. I found out that even if you tell people one item is better than another, they will often times opt for the cheaper unit. In light of my recent discoveries, we have decided to carry Police Magnum Pepper Spray in our product lineup. This is a high quality pepper spray by a good manufacturer. The bottom line is, Police Magnum will get the job done, however we prefer DPS and Mace. We want to give our customers more choice.

Good day to all. New poster here. I have a few months left on my current lease (no more leases!), which is a honda civic, and finally will have the opportunity to purchase my first WRX. I'm not looking new...probably an '02 or '03. Since I have a wife and son, and make frequent trips to the grocery store, I though that I would do so in a wagon...preferably black.
I can't think of much else to say except that I feel like a little kid just thinking about having my first boosted, awd grocery getter.
Who in these forums has a wagon of those years?

White Center Food Bank will get help from local restaurants during Give Big Event May 15
The White Center Food Bank will get a serious boost of support from neighborhood restaurants during the 2nd annual Dine Out for Hunger which coincides with the Seattle Foundation's Give Big effort. This all takes place May 15 and Zippy's Giant Burgers, Proletariat Pizza, Meanders and Company Bar are all donating a portion of their proceeds that day.
Additionally Give Big will stretch all donations to White Center Food Bank received through their website between 12:01 am and midnight, May 15 only.
Also, Café Delia and DubSea will be hosting donation stations so you can donate easily on your way to work along with that needed cup of coffee.
In 2012 Dine Out for Hunger was launched by Proletariat Pizza and Zippy's Burgers donating a portion of their proceeds from the evening. Café Delia and DubSea Coffee also provided space for wi-fi donation sites during the morning hours.

I am struggling to connect to a Access Point (AP) from about 250-300 meters away with a standard USB dongle with SMA connector and a 12dbi external antenna in my loft and I only have around 20% connection despite the manufactures of my 12dbi antenna saying that the range would be considerably more .
I was considering buying a 500mw adapter instead of my usb one and wondered would this increase my range and speed. ? And seriously boost my antenna performance and maximize its capabilities; or is 500mw of power pretty stranded and am wasting my time and money?
A third party security audit is the IT equivalent of a colonoscopy. It's long, intrusive, very uncomfortable, and when it's done, you'll have seen things you really didn't want to see, and you'll never forget that you've had one.
Proper network design is preferred over excess RF, which just amounts to RF pollution.
Stop the TSA now! Boycott the airlines.
thanks guys for your comments, But i when't and bought a 1000mw power booster and it rocks. its now at 100 % signal (and about 250 outher AP's....legaily speaking of corce )

THE LIFE AND TIMES OF JAMIE LEE COLEMAN by Dr. Michael E. Glasscock III to be Released 9/9
At 80 years old, Dr. Michael E. Glasscock III may be the busiest and most productive octogenarian in the country. He is an internationally recognized clinician, surgeon and educator in otolaryngology. He still performs ear implant surgeries to alleviate sensorineural hearing loss at The Glasscock Hearing Implant Center in Houston. He currently serves as an Adjunct Professor at Vanderbilt University Medical Center in Nashville and acts as a consultant to three medical device companies. He has authored more than 250 peer-reviewed publications and a reference book, Surgery of the Ear, considered by his peers to be the definitive textbook on the subject. Glasscock, who himself suffers from hearing loss, has been involved in the development of two major middle ear implants that have been approved by the FDA. He also is an actor who has appeared in commercials and independent films, and a licensed airplane and helicopter pilot.
And if all of that isn't enough to start a conversation at a cocktail party, Mike Glasscock can always speak about his "true passion" these days writing fiction. He has published three novels with Greenleaf Books in the last three years and is poised to release his fourth novel and an e-book novella this year.
The Life and Times of Jamie Lee Coleman, scheduled for release on September 9, 2014, is the third in a four-part series of stories inspired by the author's childhood experiences in a small town in Tennessee, not unlike the mythical Round Rock portrayed in his fictional series. The first two books in the "Round Rock" quartet are Little Joe and The Trial of Dr. Kate.
"I absolutely love writing, creating characters and dialogue," says Glasscock, who first encountered his creative muse a decade ago. "Even when I'm at the clinic, if I have an hour between patients, I'll run up to my office and keep working on a story. I don't really spend much time plotting the stories out, I just start writing and my imagination takes over."

Families have been handing food bank donations back because they're so poor they can't afford to cook it.
Oxfam Scotland say some families are returning the free food they've been donated, because they don't have enough credit in their electricity meters to switch on their cooker.
In a letter to the Scottish Parliament's welfare reform committee, Oxfam Scotland's Francis Stuart said: "One of the most shocking pieces of evidence we have seen is people who use food banks have started giving back items that need cooking because they can't afford to turn on the electricity to cook the food they desperately need."
The number of hard-up Scottish families turning to food banks has reached record levels, with 7,700 asking for help in January – half the number for the whole of 2013.
Tory minister Esther McVey drew criticism this week for suggesting the increase in families using food banks could be put down to supermarkets trying to cut food waste.
"The increased emphasis on reducing food waste may well be one of the drivers of growth in the number of foodbanks and similar initiatives, and consequently, the increased use by families," she said.
Last month, Scotland's biggest food bank, Glasgow City Mission, shut after running out of food.
Welfare reform committee convener Michael McMahon told the Daily Record: "It is vital we get on the record the situation on the ground from the people staffing food banks and supporting our most vulnerable.
"It is simply unacceptable that our society needs to step in and help feed our fellow citizens."

Out-Fox-ing the opponent
By Torleif Sorenson on 8/20/12
The 36-hole championship final of the men's 2012 U.S. Amateur championship came down to two 21-year-old college players, both of whom had to survive a 17-for-14 playoff just to get into match play. But University of Tennessee-Chattanooga senior Steven Fox also had to defeat the #1-ranked amateur in the world (Chris Williams) in the quarterfinals to get there.
Michael Weaver of Fresno, California (University of California-Berkeley) led Fox for most of the day, including a 2-up lead at the lunch break.
In the afternoon, Fox managed to cut into Weaver's 2-up lead twice, but Weaver regained his lead each time. Fox won the 33rd hole with a birdie to go just 1-down, but then gave it back at the 34th.
Weaver had Fox dormie as they both decided to lay up at the 35th, a devilish par-5 that architect William Flynn designed with an island green back in 1922. Fox coolly drained a 8-footer for birdie, leaving Weaver just 1-up going to the final regulation hole. On the 36th hole, Fox found the right rough off the tee, but both players found the left side of the green with their approaches; Weaver conceded Fox's tap-in for par. But with Weaver 1-up and the championship just an eight-foot par putt away, he shockingly overpowered his putt, lipping it out left-to-right.
The unexpected playoff began on the first tee-box, from which Arnold Palmer famously drove the green in the final round of the 1960 U.S. Open Championship. Fox wisely took danger out of play:
[I] hit 5‑iron in the morning round and decided to hit six and lay up a little bit, and then adrenaline kicked in and [I] had 70 yards...Surprisingly, Weaver broke out his driver, which he then overcooked hard-left to a trampled-upon patch beyond a cart path near the second tee. Attempting to wedge to the green through a narrow opening between a tree and a USGA tee sign, Weaver stubbed his pitch into the deep rough short of the green. Sadly, he then foozled his birdie chip, which landed at least 15 feet short of the hole. Fox then gently tapped a slippery downhiller for birdie, which slowly-but-surely crawled home.
With an exclamation point, Steven Fox took home the U.S. Amateur Championship, which also qualifies him for a tee-time with Bubba Watson on Thursday, April 11, 2013 - at the 77th Masters Tournament.

Getting to play in the Masters has to be the top prize in amateur golf.
Panerai111 says:
Saw the ending on TV. Sick finish.
Duke of Hazards says:
yeah, I was glued to my seat. Weaver's lipout on the 36th was a bad break, he hit a solid putt. couple of small grass tufts that threw his line off just a hair. that being said, Fox was extra gritty those last few holes
jrbizzle says:
Not only that, but you get to play with the defending champion. Just another reason why The Masters is such a unique tourney.
mmontisano says:
i think this also gets him into the US Open and The Open, not just The Masters.

Jessica from Sew Homegrown joins us today with this fun Chevron Bedscarf tutorial, perfectly adaptable for any number of projects from table runners and bags to scarves, pillows and more! Check out Sew Homegrown for lots of tutorials and projects to help you "embrace the art of homemaking." Enjoy today's fun, and let us know if you use this Chevron technique in something you create!
Hello Sew,Mama,Sew! readers! I'm so honored to be posting over here today. I would like to share with you my tutorial for a Quilted Chevron Bedscarf.
A bedscarf is a small throw to put across the foot of your bed.
It adds a nice pop of color and can be switched out with the seasons. This bedscarf is a great way to start quilting without the large commitment of time and money it takes to make a full size quilt. I quilted it on my machine, but if you want to practice your hand-quilting skills this would be a great project for that too.
Let's get started!
- 2 1/2 yards solid cotton for the backing (I used Kona cotton Bahama Blue)
- 1 1/4 yards white cotton for the large stripes (I used Kona cotton Snow)
- 1 1/4 yards total of various cotton prints for small stripes
- Twin-sized cotton batting
- Coordinating threads
- Sewing Machine
- Scissors
- Clear Quilting Ruler
- Self Healing Mat
- Rotary Cutter
- Water Soluble Pen
- Iron
- Pins
- Safety Pins
Step 1: Using a rotary cutter, cut out 14 white strips 5″x22″ (your cotton should be 44″ or 45″ wide so if you cut seven strips 5″ wide while it is folded, then you can simply cut each strip in half at the fold and that will give you 14). Now cut 28 strips of the cotton prints 2 1/2″x22″.
Cut even numbers of each fabric so that you will be able to create a mirror image to form the chevrons. So either cut 2, 4, 6 or 8 strips of a certain fabric. OR make it really easy on yourself and just use one or two fabrics.
I used 9 different fabrics ('cause apparently I like complicated…) and labeled them A-I. This is how I cut them:
Step 2: Once you have all of your strips cut…
…It is time to start piecing.
Use the 45 degree angle guide on the self healing mat and lay out the strips to form piece number 1.
Once you have it laid out, sew the strips right sides together and press the seams open.
Lay your clear ruler over the right edge of the piece and trim off the excess following the 45 degree angle. Then measure at a right angle 7″ out from that edge and make a mark. Continue to mark 7″ away from the edge, then cut along that mark. Cut one more 7″ strip out of that piece, and then you should have both #1 pieces.
You will make 8 strips like this.
Repeat this process to create both #3 pieces. Now turn your self-healing mat so that the 45 degree guide is facing the opposite way. Piece #2 and #4 in the same manner as above only going the opposite direction. You have to do this in order to get the chevrons to line up. This is what your 8 pieces should look like:
Whew– That was the most tedious part. Now onto putting the top together.
Step 3: Sew pieces #1 to pieces #3 to create two long strips. Then sew pieces #2 to pieces #4 to create two more long strips. Now you should have four long strips that, when lined up, create the beautiful chevron shape. Lay the outer strips on top of the inner strips. Pin the edges and sew right sides together.
Press the seam (don't skip this, otherwise your quilt won't lay flat).
Now you should have two large pieces. Lay them right sides together and pin the center seam.
Sew and then press the seam open.
Ta-da! The top is finished.
Step 4: Now lay the 2 1/2 yards of backing on a large surface– I use my kitchen floor. Then lay the batting on top of the backing. Then lay your top (cut off the ends so they are straight across) on the batting, making the quilt sandwich. Trim the batting so it is the same size as the quilt top.
Smooth out all of the wrinkles and safety pin it well so that it won't scoot around while you quilt it.
Step 5: Sew (or hand quilt) along the white strips, following the chevron, through all three layers.
Go slowly so that your bottom layer won't bunch or pucker.
Once you have finished that… It's just time to bind it up!
Step 6: Starting in the center of the long side, fold the edges of the backing over about an inch, and then fold it over again.
I created a 1″ binding here. Press it and pin it well, working from the center of each side to the corners. When you reach a corner, miter it like this:
Then simply top stitch the binding on.
That's it– A new bedscarf for your bed!
Of course this process could be used to make any number of things; I'm thinking about making a chevron bag using this technique… Hmmm… So many projects, so little time. If you get a chance, come hang out and make tons more sewing projects with me at Sew Homegrown. Thanks Sew,Mama,Sew! for having me on!

Adorable! I can't wait to try this 🙂
Love your bed scarf. I have two that I've crocheted. I have to try sewing one.
@lisa – so true… It was all I could do to keep my cats off of it while I was trying to take pics 🙂
I love your color/fabric choices. nice job
That's not a bed scarf! That's a cat quilt! Everyone knows that the cats like to have their own special quilt at the foot of the bed for daytime naps. Lovely!
Very clever! One, I've never seen a chevron done this way, and two, a bed scarf-genius! The perfect way to accent your bed.
cute bedscarf
What a great project! Thank you.
Love this!

You sure this isn't red spotted toad? Check out the possibilities:
It's not as heavily red as other A. punctatus I've seen, and the parotoids are intermediate in size. The leg banding is also intermediate from what my field guide pictures illustrate/suggest. I leaned in this direction, but I was toying with punctatus as a candidate.
Arroyo Toad is very rare and limited in range so I'd be surprised to see it out there, though of course it is possible. They live in gravely stream areas, that aren't necessarily running all year but do need a fair bit of water. You'd have to be near a fairly major wash in Joshua Tree to get close to the right habitat, I think.
Hmm - interesting - would be great to finally confirm a Red Spotted Toad from CA, maybe someone else can chime in on this?
Punctatus can be really variable with the amount of red, so I am not surprised to see one with so much gray. Arroyo Toads have a very blunt snout and this one has a much more pointed snout, consistent with punctatus. Also, Arroyo Toads are only known from a handful of desert streams, whereas punctatus is widespread in desert springs and washes.

My friend Gibby sent me these beautiful words today:
"All we know of what they do above, is that they are happy, and that they love..."
Author Unknown
"Not the least hard thing to bear when
they go from us, these quiet friends,
is that they carry away with them so
many years of our lives. Yet, if they
find warmth therein, who would
begrudge them those years that they
have so guarded?
And whatever they take,
be sure they have deserved."
--- John Galsworthy ---
Hi everyone, I am Bandit's sister Hayley and I am writing this for my brother Bandit.
It was just about seven weeks ago that I asked my Dogster and Catster friends to pray for my brother Bandit. Well I just wanted to thank everyone for the prayers and let you know that they worked! My brother was very very sick seven weeks ago. He wasn't eating and barely moving. Although he is an angel doggie now, with the help of your prayers we were able to have a wonderful last six weeks together. We got to doggie beach one more time, we got to go on a night bunny chase one more time, and we had several great neighborhood walks together. His appetite was great too, he kept us laughing with his many attempts to steal food. He was really happy, unlike when he first got sick... so most of all your prayers gave us wonderful memories of my brother's last weeks, memories that fill our hearts with joy instead of sadness. You can see it the picture on his page, taken just about a week ago.
My brother Bandit was a lover! He would melt everyone's hearts with his big brown eyes. Even though I was younger and smaller I had to protect him from everything. I tried hard to protect him from cancer but I couldn't. Bandit died peacefully in his sleep just after midnight on October 8, 2006.
Bandit would not want anyone to be sad. He has had such a great life filled with lots of love and doggie adventures! And our first Daddy, the one who rescued him, was already in heaven so now they are together again. So please instead of feeling sad or crying, celebrate my brother's life...go on a nice hike, play with some squeaky and fuzzy toys, fetch some sticks, eat some peanut butter kongs, go for a swim, chew on some chewbones and most of all share lots of hugs and kisses with your Mom and Dad!
One more thing, my Mom and Dad wanted me to write a huge thank you for all the love and support they have received from the Dogster and Catster Community and especially the 10 and Over group. My Mom put us on Dogster just for fun, and my brother got sick a couple of weeks later. When we reached out to you all, you were there for us. People and pets that didn't even know us before sent us love and prayers from all over the world. We always had faith that all the animals were good souls, but you all have renewed our faith in humans too.
We love each and every one of you,
Hayley, Laura & Eric

Chocolate Mousse Delights
This chocolate dessert is not only yummy, but impressive, as well. Serve with a few cookies on the plate, and include a garnish such as whipped cream or caramel sauce.
chocolate mousse delights
This recipe is so easy to do. And people think you are such the gourmet. I top it with a dollop of whipped cream and a stemmed cherry. Great presentation!!!!
I have made this many times. I go to trader joes and get the chocolate shells already made. I buy the mousse mix in an irish cream flavor and substitute some baileys irish cream for some of the milk. I also have used rum and frangelicu liqueur. The dark chocolate and milk chocolate mix I have also added almonds and hazel nuts.
Decadent Chocolate Mousse Delights
This dessert was fantastic, but I can't fix too often because it is sooooooooo rich!
Very Easy
This recipe was very easy and the Mousse had a very smooth texture.

Former Sotheby's chairman Alfred Taubman was jailed on Monday for concocting a secret deal to fix commission levels with arch-rival Christie's. Taubman, 77, one of America's richest men, was given a one-year sentence by a New York judge and fined £5.3m.
But the Englishman said to have hatched the plan with him, former Christie's chairman Sir Anthony Tennant, 71, remains a free man. He has been charged in the US with price-fixing but refused to travel to New York for the trial. As it is not a criminal offence in Britain, Sir Anthony cannot be extradited to the US. But federal prosecutors have described him as 'a fugitive' and if he ever sets foot in the US again he will be arrested.
Workers on his country estate near Andover, Hampshire, said Tennant was away in France and 'will not be back for weeks'. Phone calls were diverted to a line in France which was answered by a woman who would only say: 'He is not speaking to anyone.' An old Etonian and former Scots Guard, Tennant earned a reputation for rescuing ailing companies and successfully nursed Guinness back to respectability after the share-rigging scandal of the Eighties.
Meanwhile, Taubman hopes to serve his prison sentence playing tennis and sunbathing on a Florida beach. His lawyers asked the sentencing judge to send him to the white-collar prison known as 'Club Fed'. Elgin Federal Prison in Fort Walton has no bars or fences and offers yoga classes, tennis courts and sunbathing. It was rated as the best place to serve a sentence by the business magazine Forbes.
His lawyers argued Taubman should be spared jail, saying he was in poor health and might not survive prison. But Judge George Daniels said the property baron, who is still the largest shareholder in Sotheby's, had 'swindled an unsuspecting public' in a 'deceitful, secretive criminal scheme'.
Prosecutors had pushed for Taubman to be given the maximum three-year sentence for swindling clients of lost fees estimated to be worth hundreds of millions of pounds. But his lawyers launched a huge public relations campaign, enlisting the support of Queen Noor of Jordan, former US President Gerald Ford and former US Secretary of State Henry Kissinger.

More seniors than young people are open to using electronic books, a private survey in Japan suggested Wednesday.
Nearly 70 percent of Japanese in their 20s prefer paper to digital books, while less than 50 percent of those in their 70s do, according to the survey by BookLive Co., an e-book arm of Toppan Printing Co.
The results suggest that many seniors are ready to use e-books if they have a clear advantage, such as low cost, BookLive said.
Asked what they want from e-books, 52.5 percent of respondents cited low price. Among those who have already used e-books, 70.4 percent called for more titles.
The survey, conducted from July 3-6, covered 826 visitors to the Tokyo International Book Fair.

Lucinda Williams seldom delivers anything less than "solid-to-great" roots rock drenched in the blues. This album sure is solid, and contains few fillers, but at the same time lacks a real standout (or two) song.
.. and I really love the B-3 Hammond organ giving the sound of these songs a lovely touch.Her "Car Wheels on A Gravel Road" (1998) is still one of the finest albums of it's decade (easily top 10), and it would be unfair to compare later albums to that milestone.. but on some level it's hard not to..

Travel Postcard: 48 Hours in Princeton, New Jersey
By Steve James
PRINCETON, New Jersey (Reuters Life!) - There can be few more historic towns in America than Princeton, which for four months in 1783, was capital of the fledgling United States.
Home to one of America's most prestigious universities, it was the site of one of George Washington's military victories that turned the tide of the War of Independence from Britain.
It has been home to U.S. presidents, singer and social activist Paul Robeson and Nobel Prize-winner Albert Einstein.
Reuters correspondents with local knowledge help visitors make the most of a 48-hour visit to Princeton, which is situated 50 miles south of New York City and surrounded by fruit and vegetable farms.
8:00 a.m. - There are plenty of hotels in the area, but the Nassau Inn, on Palmer Square, opposite the University campus, exudes 18th century elegance with all the modern amenities.
Have breakfast at the inn's Yankee Doodle Tap Room, which also serves lunch and dinner. Egg dishes and pancakes cost between $10-$12 and while you eat you can view the Norman Rockwell mural behind the bar and the walls adorned with framed senior class photos of well-known Princeton University graduates, from Donald Rumsfeld to Brooke Shields and First Lady Michelle Obama.
9:00 a.m. - Cross Nassau Street to the Princeton campus and Nassau Hall, which was bombarded during the Revolutionary War, when it housed a British garrison. Then, when the Continental Congress met there between June and November 1783, Princeton was effectively the United States capital. Continued...

RIP Vonnegut
As I'm sure you've heard by now, Kurt Vonnegut passed away. The Times obit is here. I read SLAUGHTERHOUSE FIVE when I was in high school, and it was one of the most influential books that sent me on a path to book publishing, so I was very sad to see news his passing.

Vonnegot was my introduction to science fiction and probably my introduction to writing. His books certainly made me think about the author and the decisions made whilst writing. What to cut and what to leave in....
I may never have found my own answers but it was Breakfast of the Champions that made me realise the questions even existed.

My introduction to Vonnegut was Cat's Cradle. I devoured every single one of his books after I finished that very first. This is truly a sad day.

Three-year-old Boy Found Dead at Bottom of Abandoned Pool
Published April 20th, 2013
Loading Video...
ALACHUA COUNTY - Deputies from the Alachua County Sheriff's Office are investigating the circumstances that led up to the apparent drowning of a three-year-old boy near the Holly Heights apartment complex on Friday. Divers found the body of young Demetrius Powers near the bottom of a murky, abandoned neighborhood pool.
According to the sheriff's office, deputies were called out to the Cedar Ridge subdivision in southwest Alachua County after Powers' uncle first noticed him missing shortly before noon. Police K-9's tracked the boy's scent to the edge of an old abandoned pool nearby.
A sheriff's office spokesperson says two deputies actually went into the pool in an attempt to find the boy, but the water was so murky that rescue divers had to be called in. Those divers were able to find the boy's body near the bottom of the pool.
While it appears Powers drowned after accidentally falling into the pool while playing with a friend, deputies says they're awaiting the results of an autopsy before they can officially declare it a drowning.
Residents in the subdivision say Powers lived in the complex with his uncle and another woman they identified as his stepmother. They say Powers' uncle would always keep a close watch on the boy whenever he was playing outside.
But some residents say this tragedy could easily have been prevented. They tell TV20 that they've repeatedly asked management to fix the fence surrounding the pool as several gaps are noticeable.
Catherine Banta is the property manager for Banta Properties, which according to their website manages over a dozen properties across the area, including the Holly Heights/Cedar Ridge subdivision. While she refused to appear on camera, Banta told TV20 that as far as she knew, that pool had been drained. She said the murky water in the pool at the time was from recent rainfall.
Banta says she had not received any complaints about the holes in that fence, but did acknowledge that some residents have asked for that pool area to be redeveloped or filled in. She said she has been trying to work with numerous agencies over the years to redevelop it, including the North Central Florida YMCA and the Southwest Advocacy Group, but so far has not had any luck.
Just a few hours after the boy's body was found, several maintenance workers were spotted fixing the holes in the chain link fence surrounding the pool.

My laptop is set to dual boot and has a built in Broadcom wifi card. When booting to BT5 my built in card (WLAN0) works fine. I have a WG111v2 USB adapter that supports injection, just can't seem to get it installed. What is the proper procedure with BT5? I've researched but just seem to find info on BT3 using the win drivers.
ifconfig wlan1 up
As far as I know, back track is still based off kubuntu. So any installation procedure that works for that should do, or at least help IMO. Based on this I did a google search for "WG111v2 Linux kubuntu drivers" and the first hit had (in theory) multiple links to the required driver. As far as actual installing I don't know my self, you'll have to keep reading, waiting, or asking around some more.
Also if your laptop is powerful enough, you can use VMplayer instead of a dual boot. This is what I use and it seems to be less buggy this way. Also this should fix your particular problem because I believe that if both the NIC's work on the host OS then they will automatically work on the guest as well. I think they end up being seen as wired LANs by the guest OS though so I have no idea how you would do injection with a setup like this. But the cards should "work" this way.
Anyway, I tried to help, hope it works out.
Anyone have any ideas?
Of course, if you really wanted to have some fun, go to Wal-Mart late at night and ask the greeter if they could help you find trashbags, roll of carpet, rope, quicklime, clorox and a shovel. See if they give you any strange looks. --Streaker69
WG111v2 probably has the R8187 chipset, if not, what your version has?
If the first case, try this and tell us.

Turning next to the TV's specification, as well as a full HD resolution and a pleasingly high claimed contrast ratio of 8,000:1, the 52PFL9632D also carries Philips' Perfect Pixel HD image processing engine.
This rather boastful title describes a complex mix of different processing elements that take Philips' previous Pixel Plus 3 HD image processing as a starting point but then throws in loads of new stuff for good measure.
The Pixel Plus 3 HD bit, if you're not familiar with that technology, has displayed an uncanny knack for adding phenomenal amounts of extra sharpness and resolution to pictures, while also keeping noise levels down to an absolute minimum.
As for the new elements introduced by the Perfect Pixel HD engine, first up there's HD Natural Motion, a much more highly powered version of Philips' previous Digital Natural Motion system for reducing blur, judder and flicker from the presentation of moving objects.
Also on hand to improve motion is 100Hz processing, which doubles the normal 50Hz PAL refresh rate in a bid to reduce the LCD 'step and hold' effect that causes motion blur.
Then there's a new 14-bit colour processor, which claims to significantly boost the amount of colours the 52PFL9632D can produce versus last year's Philips LCDs, while a special 48Hz playback mode is on hand for purer playback of the 1080p/24Hz feeds now available from most Blu-ray players.
With so much heavy-duty picture processing going on, there's always the chance that the picture will become bogged down by all sorts of unwanted processing side effects. And if it does, those side effects will likely be frighteningly clear given the 52PFL9632D's prodigious screen size.
However, far from exposing flaws in the Perfect Pixel HD Engine, the 52PFL9632D's screen size actually reinforces emphatically just how good the image processing is.
For starters, during a run-through of Pirates of the Caribbean on Blu-ray, we couldn't think of any other similarly-sized flat TV that's able to deliver so much pure sharpness and detail. All the image minutiae that make Pirates… such a stand-out Blu-ray is perfectly reproduced. In fact, the detailing in evidence is so profound that you almost start to think you're looking at a picture somehow higher in resolution than even the TV's native 1,920 x 1,080 pixel count.

Since our country was founded, farmers have been the backbone of the United States. They plant and harvest their crops with the intention of selling them at a profit; and whether the buyer is the local grocery store or a restaurant chain across the globe, farmers understand that tough times are only a bad storm or a bad harvest away. To help farmers guard against the economic repercussions of a potential crop failure created by a natural disaster or the unexpected fluctuation of prices is the market, the federal government created a safety net in the Federal Crop Insurance Program. Unfortunately, it has been said that if a government program exists, someone is trying to defraud it; and that rings true in today's fraud report.
According to the FayObserver.com, a man recently pleaded guilty to a series of charges (including conspiracy to make false statements, making false statements, committing mail fraud and wire fraud, and aiding and abetting the making of false statements in connection with the crop insurance program) in a case involving activities to defraud the Federal Crop Insurance Program. If convicted, he could receive up to 35 years in prison. (For 35 years, you would think this was really big money.) Sentencing is scheduled for April 16.
A press release issued by the U.S. Attorney's Office provided more detail, noting that an "unnamed farmer devised the scheme to defraud the government and recruited" the man at the center of the story and others to "obtain crop insurance policies in their own names for certain crops, even though they did not engage in any farming." The U.S. Attorney's Office said they ran the scam from September 2006 to June 2010, putting together applications for crop insurance for tobacco and other crops, and "falsely declaring the crop to be their own." They used "stolen names and identifying information" (Identity Fraud!) to execute contracts with tobacco companies. The "unnamed farmer sold his tobacco and other crops on contracts written in the names of other co-conspirators or unknowing victims" and he profited "by being paid twice for each pound of tobacco." The man facing 35 years in prison, profited because he was paid for the use of his name on the contracts for crops he never grew. (Oops)
This is yet another example of how fraud occurs not just at the state and local level, but across all federal agencies and departments that try to support citizens. And it's yet another reason why agencies – even those that dole out federal crop insurance – need strict investigative and preventive measures to not only catch fraud, but prevent it before it happens.

Occupying the top spot on most undergraduate reading lists for this period, and widely used by teachers and students on A-level courses on early modern British history, The Stuart Age is the definitive history of England¿s century of civil war and revolution.
This new edition clarifies and makes sense of recent historiographical trends over the last decade. In a substantial new introduction to the volume, Barry Coward provides an important assessment of the impact of new revisionist approaches on historical writing about the Stuart age.
