A ship sped along the sea, pursued by another one. The first vessel was clearly not made for fighting, but just a trading ship. Most of the crew were sailors, and there was a few knights in blue armor. The second ship was an entirely different matter. It was a large, four-masted vessel, teeming with mercenary warriors. The four-master was steadily gaining on the small vessel. Then grapples snaked out from the second ship and attached themselves on the sloop. A fox shouted, "Surrender, or else will kill ya!" A knight answered the shout. "In your dreams, fox! Take out your crossbows and fire at will!" The sailors and knights took out crossbows and fired. Most of the arrows missed, but a few took out their attackers. Then pirates slid down the grapples, tackling sailors and knights. Then the leader of the knights came. He fought, and killed two mercanaries, before he was confronted by the leader mercenary. They fought, sometimes one on top, sometimes the other. Then the knight had his helmet knocked of, revaling him to be a ferret. "Give me the Blue Cross!" The ferret bared his teeth. "Never!" Then he was knocked down, and the fox put his blade at the knight's throat. "Then you will die!" The ferret glanced at another knight, who was near a barrel with a wire. He nodded a little bit. The knight returned the nod. He set the wire on fire, then sighed. Suddenly, a tremendous explosion rent the air, blowing up both ships and crews. When the smoke cleared the only things that were left was pieces of timber and dead corpses. On one of the pieces was a blue cross, with silver around the edges. It floated away from the wreckage, to another island.
Chapter 1
Brumsy and Mumsy skipped along the beach, singing a little tune. They were both little springhares, and more naughty children you couldn't meet. Then, Brumsy suddenly cried out and began hopping on one foot. "Wha the matta, Bwumsy?" His mate jumped up and down on her paw, and she replied, "Ah stepped on somting shawp!" Mumsy picked up the Blue Cross, and cried out in amazment. "Would'ja look at this? This tingy is pwetty!" "Ya, let's give it to mommy!" The little hares raced back the way they came, thier pain forgotten. A shadowy figure followed them. Brumsy and Mumsy ran into a little cottage, yelling, "Momma, momma, we have a pwesent for you!" A female hare walked up to the little ones. "Yes dears, what have you found?" Brumsy showed his mother the Blue Cross. "Oh, how pretty! Thank you so much! Now go out and play!" The babies ran out, then the mother heard a few squeals, then silence. She stood up, and picked up a floorboard in a hidden place. She belted on a breastplate and picked up a knife. She quietly approached the doorway... then lept out, pointing her dagger to the direction from which her children's squeals had sounded. Brumsy was on the ground, unconcious, bleeding from her head. A cloaked and hooded figure held Mumsy up by her neck, a dagger at her throat. The little springhare was too scared to move. She gasped in shock. "Put her down, you... you beast!" The figure merely tightened his hold on Mumsy. "Now why should I... Elaina?" The hare was so shocked, that she dropped her dagger. "Justin? But why would you..." The beast tossed his hood back, to reveal a very handsome hare. Elaina broke into tears.

The owner of the Texas-based gun store that has been making headlines recently with its creative marquee bashing Obama and the Democrats says that he's come under political attack and is going to be forced to shut down.
Now Tactical firearms is looking for help from the public to fight the unfair treatment they're getting from their bank, which is more than likely linked to the Justice Department's "Operation Choke Point." The initiative from the DOJ that applies pressure to banks and credit card processors to drop the accounts of "high risk" businesses, even though they're engaging in perfectly legal activities.
The Katy, Texas gun store posted a lengthy plea on its website that claims their bank is calling in a loan on July 1 that will more than likely put them out of business. This comes after gun-related retailers across the nation have been reporting that their merchant accounts and bank accounts were unexpectedly closed due to their businesses being "high risk."
In its explanation, Tactical Firearms claims that the bank told them they're calling in the loan because the "government does not support loans to the gun, alcohol, or hotel industries," which falls in line with what's been happening under Operation Choke Point. However oddly enough, Eric Holder recently announced that the DOJ would be working with banking regulators to ease the restrictions on banks when dealing with marijuana businesses in states where it's been legalized.
Just as with the IRS, Obama has weaponized yet another government agency and is using it to "choke" out the gun industry since he knows gun control isn't happening in the near future. This brazen attack on the Second Amendment is not only tyranny defined, but it's illegal and shows the utter contempt that Obama and his cohorts have for our laws and our Constitution.
Here's the company's entire plea, read it and let us know what you think:
DOJ Forcing Banks To Drop Gun Store Clients
We Need Your Help
Tactical Firearms has prided itself in being honest with our customers from our first day in business. That's why we are alerting you today to a situation that we believe to be unjust and punitive against Tactical Firearms, and this is a situation that threatens to put us out of business on July 1, 2014.
Tactical Firearms has just been given notice that our loan with Icon bank has been called in. Not because of no payment, as we have never been late or missed a payment, but because the board of directors has chosen to not renew the loan. Deciding to call a loan which has a perfect payment record and is profitable to the bank is almost unheard of in the banking industry. This is why we believe Tactical Firearms is being specifically targeted with punitive actions in an effort to put us out of business.
But there's even more to this situation that you need to know:
Back in 2012 Tactical Firearms purchased the land next to our existing facility. Icon Bank suggested an interim loan at 7% interest and then to refinance all of our loans together into one loan at a lower rate of 3.579%. At that time we had a fixed, long term loan for the building and the construction of the range. By purchasing the land, it cross collateralized the loans and put us in a situation (unknown to us at the time) that could threaten our entire business.
When it became time to refinance the loans, one of our owners (30%), Steven Coe Wilson, decided to back out. It is our belief based on what we have since learned that Steven wished to seize control of the company. We have substantial reason to believe he recruited some of our longest and hardest working employees to overbuy, to overspend, and to bury Tactical Firearms in debt to the point that we could not pay our bills. His grand plan appears to have been to swoop in and buy up the loan when the bank foreclosed on us for failure to pay. Perhaps to his disappointment, not only have we successfully paid our loan notes, we have also cut the unpaid bills by over half.
Sadly, because Steven did not sign the loan refinance that he had previously agreed to, the short term loan for the land has now matured. By default, our primary business loan is now in jeopardy.
Anti-Trust Practices?
Further complicating this situation, it has also been brought to our attention that a member of the board of directors of Icon Bank, Mark Evans, is the owner of a new gun store in the Houston area. Based on what we've learned about this competitor, we are convinced that this bank has the intensions of forcing Tactical Firearms out of business to remove a major competitor from the market of Mr. Mark Evans' new business, Guns Over Texas. If true, we believe this would constitute unfair trade practices in the State of Texas, and we intend to pursue this matter with the office of Texas Attorney General Greg Abbott.
Further connections support our accusations of anti-trade practices. For example, Mark Evans is the Managing Partner for Commercial Finance with the firm O'Connor, Craig, Gould & Evans – the firm that is being used by Icon Bank to proceed with the foreclosure. We strongly protest what appears to be a clear conflict of interest on the part of Mark Evans, who appears to be using his influence at the law firm (and therefore the bank) to engage in destructive, punitive actions with the ultimate aim of destroying his competition and thus ensuring the profitability of his own gun store.
Such behavior is monopolistic, anti-free-trade and un-American. Please contact the Attorney General and urge him to look into this matter.
Email: Attorney General Greg Abbott
[email protected]
At the same time, the bank's excuse to us for calling in the loan is because the "government does not support loans to the gun, alcohol, or hotel industries" and the banks get heavily audited. This is an extension of the Obama administration's backdoor efforts to bankrupt the firearms industry and all its supporting retailers and firing ranges. Since the government can't take away our Second Amendment directly, they make it difficult for businesses to stay open by pressuring banks to close loans. This has already happened to other gun shops around the country. We are fighting to make sure it doesn't happen to us.
All these factors seem to now be coalescing into a deliberate, well-planned attack on Tactical Firearms with the aim of permanently putting us out of business. The idea of our doors closing is incredibly painful to even imagine. We have over 30 employees, many of whom have children, who depend on our successful business operations to keep their own homes. In addition to our economic contributions to Katy and the greater Houston area, we also donate our time and profits to charities like Oilfield Helping Hands and Texas Sentinels.
Even more, there are 175 NFA items in our possession awaiting approval from the ATF. If we are unable to stay in business, every single one of these items would have to be resubmitted and the year long process would begin again.
We Need Your Help To Fight This Tyranny
Today, I am reaching out to YOU, our valued customers and supports, to ask for your help in keeping us out of the clutches of these punitive, monopolistic actions that now threaten Tactical Firearms.
FIRST, we need you to CONTACT THE BANK and urge them to reconsider their intended loan recall, pointing out that all banks need goodwill in the community in order to stay in business themselves:
John Green, President and Vice Chairman of the Board Icon Bank, [email protected], 281-517-2430
SECOND, we ask that you contact Mark Evans, who resides on the Board of Directors of Icon Bank, and let him know that the community is now heavily scrutinizing his actions and that we believe he is engaged in anti-trust violations of state and federal law. We will not hesitate to take this issue to the press if Evans pursues what we believe to be a punitive, anti-trade assault on our business rights:
Mark Evans, Board of Directors Icon Bank and Managing Partner of O'Connor, Craig, Gould & Evans, [email protected], 713-221-1300
THIRD, we ask that you help put out the word that all this could be readily solved if another INVESTOR or LENDER could be identified who would step up to the plate and support this successful business. We are a high-integrity, profitable business with a strong credit history and a perfect record of loan payment. Any lender would be thrilled to do business with a company like Tactical Firearms, and if a lender or investor wishes to help support our operations, it would also be a PROFITABLE venture for them to do so.
If you know of such a lender or investor who is interested in a profitable partnership with Tactical Firearms, please have them contact us at:
Email: [email protected]
Finally, all of us here at Tactical Firearms thank you for your ongoing support, and please know that we are deeply dedicated to finding solutions that will defend us against this punitive and potentially unlawful attempts to destroy our business.
We believe in America. We believe in the Second Amendment. And we also believe that businesses operating in Texas should not be subjected to Gestapo-style tactics from the banking industry and its insiders. What we are fighting for here is the integrity of the entire business infrastructure which obviously depends on lenders to act on good faith when supporting expanding businesses.
What this system is trying to do to Tactical Firearms right now is a travesty of justice, and it's just one more sign of the kind of punitive insanity we are seeing played out across this great nation by a network of anti-American individuals who are attempting to destroy the fabric of this nation one day at a time.
We refuse to let that happen, and we will fight this with every ounce of effort and breath within our reach. We thank you for any assistance and help you can offer us in this very trying time.
Share this with everyone you know and please keep all of us in your prayers.
The Tactical Firearms Family

Known as one of the most beautiful states in the country, Hawaii is a tropical paradise. Start planning your summer itinerary, beginning with these six travel tips:
1. Vacation Home
When it comes to visiting Hawaii, there are a myriad of places you can stay. Hawaii has some of the most luxurious resorts available that offer amenities like ocean front views, waterfall pools, and shuttles to any local area of interest. If spending a great deal of time in Hawaii, look into renting out vacation homes or timeshares. In the long run, it will probably be less expensive, for instead of spending money on every meal, you can cook within the property's kitchen. Plus, you can spend evenings relaxing inside of a space that feels like home.
And, if you enjoy your time in Hawaii, look into investing in a timeshare instead of just renting one. The space is available to you whenever you want to getaway and can be rented out for a nice profit. Plus, sites like direct2tv.com/direct-tv/Hawaii/Honolulu offer great deals on exclusive amenities you can add to your timeshare.
2. Pearl Harbor
If you want to see Pearl Harbor, reserve your tickets in advance. As a major attraction, tours often sell out quickly, especially in the peak months of tourist season.
3. Waikiki and Honolulu
Some of the island's best attractions are located in the tourist zone of Waikiki Beach and Honolulu. Though crowded, the sites are well worth it. Spend a day snorkeling at Hanauma Bay, a protected nature preserve on Oahu's coast, or go for a drive up the windward coast on Kalanianaole Highway, where you'll be able to see a dormant volcano and sharp cliffs overlooking a turquoise ocean.
Spend a day at Lanikai Beach, which has been consistently voted Hawaii's number one beach. It's a little off the beaten path, making it usually free from tourists. Or, visit Oahu's North Shore to check out the Polynesian Cultural Center. It is a lot like Disney's EPCOT, for it represents every culture from Samoa, Tahiti, Tonga, Fiji, Hawaii, to several others islands in order to showcase their culture, food, music, and other traditions.
4. Food Specialties
While in Hawaii, experience the local cuisine like dinner at Duke's Waikiki or Giovanni's Shrimp Truck. For a little legendary shaved ice, give Matsumoto Shave Ice in the historic Haleiwa a try. Matsumoto is known for its unique flavors like tangerine, green tea, and creamsicle.
5. Maui
Maui is full of picturesque beach options that range from large and crowded to small and peacefully unknown. Whalers Village is a typical shopping destination while Mt. Haleakala is an impressive volcano site most tourists hitch a ride to see. Lahaina Harbor is known for its whale-watching tours, especially during December-April. Maui hosts plenty of luaus that tourists can attend to experience a traditional Hawaiian night full of hula dancing, Hawaiian food, and music.
6. Before You Leave…
Make sure to toss a flower lei into the ocean before you leave. It's a traditional symbol that you'll be back to paradise someday.

There has been a lot of talk about the IMS market – many conflicting messages and the usual techno hype.
But we still don't know exactly what it is. Is it a new standard, is it a new technology or is it just a set of soft switches?
For the time being IMS remains a moving target and means different things to different people. This makes it rather difficult for a non-engineering person like myself to get a good handle on this market (or product, or standard). There is also little hope of getting a reliable answer from the industry. Many have their own vested interests in this market/product/standard and so you hear very conflicting messages from them.
Critics are saying that one of the confusing elements of IMS is that it started off in the 3G environment. This environment is now threatened by wireless broadband and it looks as though IMS became a bandage solution to turn 3G networks into IP-based networks.
I copied the following information from one of our web reports, so this is on record as where we see IMS sitting,
Exhibit 1 – What is IMS?
The IP Multimedia Subsystem (IMS) is an open, standardised NGN multimedia architecture for mobile and fixed IP services. It is based on a 3GPP (3rd Generation Partnership Project) variant of SIP, and uses standard IP. It is used by telecom operators in NGN networks (which combine voice and data in a single packet-switched network), to offer network controlled multimedia services.
The aim of IMS is not only to provide all of the current and future services that the Internet provides, but to allow these services to be offered when roaming as well as on home networks. To achieve these goals the IMS uses open standard IP. All interfaces are based on IP
IMS was originally defined by the 3GPP as part of its standardisation work for 3G mobile phone systems for WCDMA networks, but the service model has also been used by 3GPP2 (a separate organisation for CDMA2000 networks) and TISPAN (fixed networks). It is a key technology for Fixed/Mobile Convergence (FMC).
Is there any independent person out there who can shed some more light on this?

University of Texas El Paso is the school.
Miners is the mascot
History: Since opening its doors as the Texas State School of Mines in 1914. Then in 1967 it became as what we now know as the University of Texas El Paso. In the beginning UTEP only had 27 students. UTEP has had higher education in one of the largest bilingual places in the world.Over the past century, the University's enrollment has grown from 27 mining students to more than 23,000 undergraduate and graduate students, and that number continues to increase each year. UTEP is on the hills an can see Mexico from there. It is basically on the border.

TCM Day
The College of Engineering pays annual homage to Saint Patrick, patron saint of engineers. Students majoring in mining or engineering engage in a variety of tasks throughout the day such as painting green lines and whitewashing the M, perpetuating the oldest continuous tradition at UTEP. There are many ways to make your time at UTEP special. One is to connect by participating and celebrating some of the fine traditions that have come to represent both what it means to be a Miner and what it means to be part of the UTEP family.

An engineer makes between $77,000 to over $100,000 per year, and need at least a bachelor's degree in an engineering field or more.
Biomedical engineers study possible applications of new materials for use as new body parts.They analyze and design solutions to problems in biology and medicine.
Biomedical engineers typically do the following:
- Design systems and products, such as artificial internal organs, artificial devices that replace body parts, and machines for diagnosing medical problems
- Install, adjust, maintain, repair, or provide technical support for biomedical equipment
- Evaluate the safety, efficiency, and effectiveness of biomedical equipment
- Train clinicians and other personnel on the proper use of equipment
- Work with life scientists, chemists, and medical scientists to research the engineering aspects of biological systems of humans and animals
Biomedical engineers must be able to analyze the needs of patients and customers to design appropriate solutions.
Communication skills. Because biomedical engineers sometimes work with patients and frequently work with medical scientists or other engineers, they must be able to express themselves clearly.
Listening skills. Biomedical engineers often work in teams and gather input from patients, therapists, physicians, and business professionals. They must seek others' ideas and incorporate them into the problem-solving process.
Math skills. Biomedical engineers use the principles of calculus and other advanced topics in mathematics for analysis, design, and troubleshooting in their work.
Problem-solving skills. Biomedical engineers typically deal with and solve problems in complex biological systems.
Biomedical engineers must have at least a bachelors degree or more with most jobs asking to have some work experience.

Education and Training
University of Texas El Paso
I have been in organizations such as an amazing organization for Engineers called the "National Society of Professional Engineers" (NSPE).
Ever since I was able to think. I would always have ideas and inventions on how to make the world better to live in. I have had many ideas where I think of them and years later somebody is making millions of dollars with the same inventions I thought would change the world. In my four years of high school I had an Engineering class. At the first moments of being in that class, I knew that I wanted to be an engineer and change the world with my ideas. I wanted to make a difference in the world.
In my first year of high school I had an amazing idea for an idea that could have great changes for life in today's society. I didn't know exactly what you would do with this idea but I know that it will be great. The idea was to create something such as a nanobot that could be smaller than an atom that would connect with other nanobot and would create anything you need. With these you could create anything from a tiny robot for medical treatment to a simple chair for a party. I thought of this to function just like an atom by connecting itself to other of the same and to look like an HIV virus. It would have a sphere in the middle that would be the control of the nanobot and from there would have thousands of little arms all over the surface. On a be end of each of the arms they would have little grabbers that would grab on to the other grabers of other nanobots.
The first time I told my idea to another person they told me I was crazy and that it would have no use in the world. I didn't listen and spent all day and night working on my idea. I calculated all the outcomes and every little detail about it. I talked to other people and other engineers about my idea and wanted their help on it. I did all I could to try and make my idea happen.
Later on I had a crazy I incidence with an idea I had. I had done a project on color blindness and had seen a way to possibly be able to cure it or make it better. I had spoken to another engineer about it and had told him about my idea. He then decided to work on it and found out years later that my idea was very close in technology to working.
I have always had a great interest in engineering especially engineering in medicine. It is a way to help people directly and find helpful new ways for people to be healthier and have better lives.
I still want to make a difference in the world and make great changes in this life. I wish
to create things that will change the medical field and to create amazing changes that I could achieve with being a Biomedical Engineer.

Ivan Sears Rochester Hills, MI
"I ordered the RX1200L Powered Mixer and LM15 speakers. Used them at an open mike a week later to rave reviews. Excellent package and very reasonable to move around due to the light weight."
Scott Gaines Corona, CA
"I can't believe how incredibly light this thing is. It's very flexible with all its options and features. It's stereo, too, which I think is cool. The onboard FX aren't super great, but they're decent enough to put a little 'verb or slap-back echo on your vox, and the power on tap is as impressive as any powered mixer I've ever seen. 400 watts X 4? Outstanding! The fact that it has 2 monitor mixes is almost enough by itself to put it in the pro category for me, but I wouldn't go so far as to say I feel this is a professional sound-guy's first choice. This unit is for the weekend warrior who wants to provide sound for his band in the bars. All 4 internal amps have their own 7 band EQ, and channel 12 has stereo 1/4" inputs for piped-in music, or MIDI sequences. It also has a set of tape-in, and tape-out RCA jacks. It has Left and Right XLR outs for external amps or powered mains when additional support is needed for larger venues, an active sub XLR out with bypassable crossover @120hz so you can hook it up to an external power amp to power a subwoofer. Or you could just plug it into a powered sub and you're set. Each channel has inserts on it so you can run each individual channel through external equipment, and it also has inserts for the main and monitor mixes, so you can use stuff like a compressor or some other kind of signal processor to further enhance your sound.
This is a very capable unit for small bars, coffee-houses, and even some backyard party type events. Get yourself some mains and a powered subwoofer, and you've got a decent PA going. I think the best part about the Carvin RX1200L is that unlike other powered mixers, there is a lot of room to grow and expand your rig. There are so many possible connections that it's a great way to get your personal stage rig started.
All in all, I'm very excited about my RX1200L."
Vic Tommarchi Naples, FL
"The RX1200L powered mixer is ideal for a 5 pc. band like mine that does single engagements in banquet halls. We carry our own sound system, and play to 200-300 people. The generous amount of channels & wattage, coupled to it's light weight sold me on this product. The system is clear and crisp. I have other Carvin products, and have never been disappointed."
Ernie Harris Jr Springfield, MA
"First just for the record I have been playing bass and singing for 41 years. I bought this mixer a couple of months ago and use it in small club venues and couldn't be HAPPIER. I love the effects for a great vocal sound. Putting guitars through it is a gem. But most of all I love the fact that I have 4 x 400 wts amps to use for mains and monitors. This has to be the best money I have spent in years and look forward to gigging with this unit for the next few years. Also you can't beat the weight of this unit."

"First time mummy and lonely"
About: Pleasley Hill Children's Centre Pleasley Hill Children's Centre NG9 7RT

Becoming a first time mum I thought it was going to be a breeze and that I knew all I needed to know about babies, turns out I barely knew anything at all and being the only person within my social circle to have a baby I became rather lonely and confused on how to help my baby progress.
Then we was introduced to baby massage at Pleasley Hill Children's Centre at first I was very nervous and shy as I am not very confident in meeting new people, but all the staff and other massage member were extremely welcoming made me feel part of the group instantly which was a huge relief from that session we also joined an afternoon playgroup with lots of other mums this has boosted my confidence immensely my baby enjoys play time with other babies and I'm able to gain knowledge from experienced mums in how to help my baby's progress I no longer feel alone I am very grateful to have a centre like Pleasley Hill Children's Centre at the top of my road it's easy to get to and a lovely relaxing place to be.

Puerto Vallarta Walking Tour Excursion Reviews
Booked a private tour with Alejandro Martinez (Conservationalist, Naturalist from P.V.) Alex took us to the Sierra Madre Occidentalis (Mountain Range) for Birding. He was very knowledgeable of the area and we viewed many beautiful birds!!! We ended our day at the Vallarta Botanical Gardens, before going back to the ship, whereby we had plenty of time before the ship left.
We were very thankful for Alex who guided us privately on Christmas Eve. Christmas Eve is the night that Mexicans celebrate over the Holidays (big night), so it was very very kind of him to take time on this special day to guide us through PV's beautiful mountain range. An excellent experience.

we met him before, lying during the campaign denials
and takes pride in his role
here's a BBC interview with 🍊 on Sater in 2013
and let's keep in mind the FBI dimension (how that he's investigated by them)
a trip through the past lies
and here's his card
more from him
Both NYT and WaPo have stories on it today, and Michael Says who Cohen has different versions for both
and the NYT
like 🍊 himself, Sater has a proud lineage
and once again, she warned us when it was still time
and still does
but the media still finds it "weird"
I went with the British hashtag instead of golden showers. Funnier.
like this one
as doubts have been thrown on it
Here's the news
The CIA has concluded in a secret assessment that Russia intervened in the 2016 election to help Donald Trump win the presidency, rather than just to undermine confidence in the U.S. electoral system, according to officials briefed on the matter.
Here was the public invitation from the candidate
and she told us, but…
and from her campaign, back in October
here's the GOP demanding a cover-up
and also from Mc Mullin
here's the cover up by the media
and a bit of bothsidery parody
oh, and this is 🍊's answer – 3 lies and
one lie in particular exposed here
and who else jumps to help 🍊? You guessed it! GG& friends who fell for an anonymous hoax at The Guardian
I saw the same argument made by many Russian eggs on Twitter today, BTW
Darth Putin sums up their reactions
and more details fof some of the ways they helped
can't argue with this
I emailed my concerns to the electors
🍊's calls to foreign leaders provoke chills. And merriment. Friend on FB compared 🍊's intelligence unfavorable to their cat who checks the weather outside every 5 minutes.
Twitter had its turn
there's also the much praised by the media (Uygur, you too) of the deal with himself to keep – some jobs from going to Mexico
or the way Matt Oswald put it
the Taiwan lie
and this call to Pakistan needs to be preserved too
A summary
Parting thought
Setting the tone
and from the funeral, the perfect metaphor
whatever will we do?
but at least we have thoughtful reaction
and how that came about
and promises to keep
This is not 🍊 related, but seeing that some are getting sentimental about Castro, this is good
and that offended some little Castro fan, ahd she gave this answer to his crude remark
and glad someone is keeping track of this stuff

Problem With Red Colored Gumpaste
Decorating By inspiredbymom Updated 30 Jun 2011 , 8:00pm by carmijok
I recently needed to make red blossoms for a wedding cake. I used gumpaste because I didn't want them to "wilt". I colored it two days in advance to set the color. I spent several hours preparing the 72 blossoms. After a couple of hours, the blossoms faded. They turned from red to a brick or clay color. They looked awful! However, the gumpaste that was not used still looked red! Since I only had one more day before I had to work on the cake, I stayed up all night making flowers out of fondant with tylose and prayed for the best. I used the same coloring (americolor red red). I stayed away from wilton coloring just because I didn't want the color to fade. (I have read many topics about the dye problems in red) So, can anyone shed any light on what happened? I used Wilton premade gumpaste with americolor. The new flowers never faded even though I didn't have time to let the color "set". I'll have a pic up soon. I forgot to take a pic of the yucky flowers. I was so upset that I dumped them all because I needed my trays for the new flowers. Any thoughts???
Ack! You shouldn't have dumped them! Gum paste will dry a lot lighter, but what you can do is paint over them with red food color and extract or vodka to get the deeper color you want. I had to do that to match the brim of the purple baseball hat to the cake I made and also to deepen a navy background for my Dallas Mavericks cake logo (in my photos). I would also think petal dusts might work too...but I love the color I can get with the gel and lemon extract (or vodka).
I like your hat! Okay, my DH tried painting the flowers but it looked streaky. How did you keep it from streaking? I tried petal dust and it was real light. UGH! I must be doing it wrong. Practice will make it happen I guess! Thanks for the advice! I'll keep working at it!
I agree with carmijok, gumpaste does tend to dry lighter in color.
Sorry this happened. I had the same problem too the first time I used gum paste. Thankfully it was a surprise cake for my mom for mother's day, so the color didn't have to be perfect and I was able to tint my icing to match later. I just assumed it would dry darker like fondant. Now I always go darker than what I want (just like I go a little lighter with fondant) and it comes out great!
Did you have your flowers near a window?
Direct sunlight can fade gumpaste flowers.
I had this happen with purple fondant/gumtex flower left by a sunny window...they faded to a pinkish color.

Are you using gel color or the petal dust...because petal dust won't work on this process. Just put a bit of gel color on a plate or a pallet and then mix a little vodka or extract to make it more spreadable and paint it on. It's like working with water colors. You can thin it or keep the gel more thick. And just keep painting it until it's more uniform in color and let dry. You can also use the 'streaks' to your advantage too...the darker color can highlight the veining or crevices in your petals. On my cap, the color settled into the 'stitching' and made it stand out more I think.

Vacuuming your carpets is a chore that really makes a difference in how your house looks. For the best results, you should vacuum your carpet at least once a week and more often if you have small children and pets. Vacuuming removes grimy particle build up on your carpets and reduces germs and bacteria in your household as noted by the carpetcleaningcare.com website. There are tips to make this cleaning chore easier and more effective.
You would not drink a beverage out of a straw that is clogged with food particles or dust because it just would not be efficient or sanitary, so think of your carpet tools in the same way. Check your vacuum hose frequently for clogs, these cut down on the suction and cleaning power of the machine according to the cleanupthatfilthyhouse.com website. You can take apart a wire-clothing hanger and gently bend the tip of it into a U shape with wire pliers. This will make an effective tool for removing hair and dust clogs from your hose.
Clean your filters regularly. Empty the bag or dust bin after every carpet cleaning. Doing these two things regularly will keep your vacuum at its most powerful and lengthen the life of this expensive cleaning tool.
Be sure to make good use of your vacuum attachments. Most vacuums come with at least two attachments and high-end vacuums come with multiple wands for all your cleaning needs. The wide mouth bristle brush is the best tool for cleaning the carpet on your floors. Its bristles comb the fibers of your carpeting and bring the dust and particles into the open so that the suction can zap it away. The crevice attachment with the narrow opening is effective in cleaning corners, stairs and baseboards. The narrow opening makes for suction that is more powerful, and is good for removing pet hair and dust balls that can congregate in these areas. Most vacuums come with a small bristle brush to use in vacuuming lampshades, books and other areas. Telescoping wands are tools that help you reach high areas to suck down spider webs and to be able to reach your ceiling fan blades. Vacuums that come with upholstery tools are quite handy to clean your furniture, especially if you have pets.
Dust each room before vacuuming. This way you can vacuum up excess dust that falls onto the floor. Pick up anything that may clog or damage your vacuum such as coins, marbles or long gift ribbons. The most efficient method to clean your carpet once a week is to begin with the room the farthest from your living area. Use a slow back and forth motion and cover the entire room one strip at a time. Then do the entire room again by vacuuming across the first pattern. This will effectively clean your carpet fibers from every angle. Be sure not to back yourself into a corner, start with the farthest corner and work your way out into the hallway to avoid stepping onto the carpet you just vacuumed.

"app to see orthopaedic surgeon at ilkeston..."
About: Ilkeston Community Hospital Ilkeston Community Hospital Ilkeston DE7 8LN
Posted by Anonymous
I was very satisfied with the speed of the appointment bearing in mind I am in excruciating agony, and as a result of the appointment I was told that the operation will be dealt with in the utmost urgency and when I chased this after 2 weeks I was told that it can take up to 3 weeks for the hospital at derby to receive the written letter from Ilkeston hospital but after another 2 weeks I was told that this had not been dealt with, I am extremely distressed after hearing this after still being in complete agony. As a result of this I have now been given an appointment for 2 weeks time but I have been left feeling disheartened after this experience

North West Early Modern Seminar at the University of Leeds!
In November the North West Early Modern Seminar was hosted by Liverpool Hope University where we enjoyed a series of excellent papers and presentations on current research projects. John Appleby (Liverpool Hope University) explored the ways in which the notorious pirate John Callice was able to benefit from networks of assistance and lack of action by local authorities, and the problems posed by this form of organised crime for the Elizabethan government. Dr Appleby drew attention to the fascinating image of the redeemed pirate, at times both useful to Callice and acceptable to ministers seeking to draw on his considerable knowledge. Dr Jenni Hyde (University of Manchester) stepped in at short notice and discussed the use by mid-Tudor ballad composers of simple, memorable tunes in familiar musical forms which could be reworded to suit a particular topical issue, demonstrating her point by leading her audience in song! She explored the range of subjects that were addressed in both surviving manuscript and print collections, and balladeers' use of ambiguous words – and the potential consequences, in the context of the Henrician treason legislation, of being willing to explain them to an audience.
We heard from our 'speed-daters' after a short break, beginning with Dr Nicholas Seager (University of Keele) who discussed his current work editing the surviving correspondence of Daniel Defoe, talking us through the range of subject matter and the associated editorial challenges. Michael Smith (University of Manchester) explored an aspect of his doctoral research on late seventeenth and early eighteenth-century Protestantism, focusing on the motives of the SPCK in circulating work by the non-conformist theologian, Jean Le Clerc. Dr James Mawdesley (Liverpool Hope University) closed our proceedings by exploring the significance of the probable links between Richard Mather of Boston and clergy in Bury in the establishment of Presbyterianism in Lancashire in the 1640s.
We continued discussions over drinks and a meal.
In March the North West Early Modern Seminar travelled to Huddersfield where we heard some excellent papers and shared current research projects. Professor Jessica Malay (University of Huddersfield) gave an insight into the life of Katehrine Hampson, an independent genteel woman of the seventeenth century. Using wills and printed texts Professor Malay pieced together the social networks of Katherine Hampson beyond the nuclear family, with some important ramifications for the social role of unmarried women in early modern England. Dr Benjamin Williams (John Rylands Research Institute) talked us through the different expositing texts and commentaries in the Rabbinic Bible. His close analysis of annotations on the Bible held at the John Rylands Library made for an exciting discussion of the translation of particular words such as 'hell' and 'damnation' from Greek texts.

After a cake filled break we heard from our five minute 'speed daters'. Rebecca Walker (University of Huddersfield) discussed her ongoing research project on the ideals of household hospitality. Dr Fiona Pogson (Liverpool Hope University) shared some recent research finds for the accounts of Thomas Wentworh, earl of Strafford. We also heard from Hannah Robb (University of Manchester) on her PhD project looking into the sociability of credit in the fifteenth century and Richard Leese (University of Huddersfield) who shared an interesting interdisciplinary research project on the archaeology of sieges in the English Civil War.

We followed the seminar with drinks, food and further discussion. Information on the next North West Early Modern Seminar will be posted here on the blog and twitter feed @NWSeminar. If you would like any information about the upcoming events of the seminar or would like to submit papers for future events please contact the secretary, Rachel Winchcombe at firstname.lastname@example.com
On Wednesday 29th October the North West Early Modern Seminar gathered at Keele University. We heard some excellent papers and exchanged results from recent research projects and papers. Ann Hughes (Keele University) shared the results from ongoing research into the financial records of the English civil war with some unexpected outcomes for the social and cultural implications of memory and remembrance in the seventeenth century. Sasha Handley (University of Manchester) discussed an intriguing eighteenth century bed sheet and the scientific experiments behind this ongoing research. We closed the papers of the 'speed-daters' with Rachel Winchcombe (University of Manchester) who explored the complexities of the 'fantastical' concept of El Dorado, with the suggestion that it was more grounded in science and reason than previously considered.
Allan Kennedy (University of Manchester)
Simon Hill (Liverpool John Moores University)
After a quick break we reconvened for two insightful twenty minute papers. Following on from his recent publication, Governing Gaeldom: The Scottish Highlands and the Restoration State, 1660-1688, Dr Allan Kennedy (University of Manchester) discussed the possibilities of court records from Argyllshire for a social history of Scottish crime. The preliminary research for the project pointed to a moderate and malleable rural judicial system which bucked the trend for a severe and bloody penal code in seventeenth century Scotland. Our second presenter, Simon Hill (Liverpool John Moores University), gave us an insight into his current doctoral research into the privateers of Liverpool in the American War of Independence. The presentation looked at the mechanics of privateering, its economic value to the local and national economy and the interaction between privateers and the state.
We closed the evening with drinks and further discussion in the pub. The next North West Early Modern Seminar will be held at the University of Huddersfield on the 11th March, 3pm.

Elon Musk isn't just a tech genius – the Tesla CEO has made headlines for taking the time to respond to a child's letter.
This note in particular, however, had some extraordinarily good advice; advice which Musk was wise to take.
The father of a 5th grade student named Bria sent a scanned letter written by his adorable daughter to the tech genius on Twitter. In the letter, Bria made a suggestion for the notoriously ad-less company's marketing department.
Instead of totally avoiding advertisements all together, Tesla could hold a competition for best fan-made commercial.
"I have noticed that you do not advertise, but many people make homemade commercials for Telsa and some of them are very good," wrote the youth. "I think that you should run a competition on who can make a the best homemade Tesla commercial and the winners will get their commercial aired."
"You could give the winners a year of free Supercharging [the process by which Tesla drivers charge their vehicles] or a Model 3 Easter egg or something," added Bria.
The girl goes on to detail how much her and her father adore Tesla cars and how they are "very smart and friendly to the environment".
To conclude the adorable – and surprisingly articulate – note, Bria expresses her plans to one day drive her own Tesla-made vehicle… after she gets her license, of course.
"I hope that when I'm older, I can drive a Tesla. It's so sad that they cannot be sold in Michigan. It's such a hassle to have to drive to a different state to get a car! I plan to be a politician when I grow up, and I will make sure that the government protects the environment, and Teslas can be bought anywhere."
Musk eventually received the letter, and expressed his adoration for the idea: "Thank you for the lovely letter. That sounds like a great idea. We'll do it!"
The exact start date of Bria's suggested ad campaign is unclear, but we think it is fair to say that this 5th grader has a bright future – whether it be advertising or politics.

Delvecchio awaits on future
By Amanda Cornforth
Last Updated: 01/01/70 1:00am
Sampdoria midfielder Gennaro Delvecchio's future is set to be decided this week.
Sampdoria midfielder Gennaro Delvecchio's future is set to be decided over the forthcoming days.
Celtic are reportedly interested in the services of the 29-year-old Italian star but could have to offer £3million for his signature.
Palermo had been rumoured to have already offered £2million plus a player for Delvecchio, which the club have denied.
A Sampdoria source told Skysports.com: "We are discussing Delvecchio's situation at the moment but we have received no official offers from either Celtic or Palermo.
"We are expecting to receive some official offers in the next few days and his future will be decided then."
Meanwhile, Celtic are also reportedly set to talk with Milan winger Massimo Donati and his agent this week.
