Researchers announced Wednesday that a new bait alternative may help reduce the number of horseshoe crabs harvested to be used as bait.
Female horseshoe crabs are considered the best bait to attract eel and whelk, also known as conch. But harvest limits are in place to protect the population in the Delaware Bay and threatened migratory shorebirds that feed on the crabs' eggs.
In 2008, the New Jersey legislature banned the use of horseshoe crabs as bait. Fishermen have been trying to overturn that ban ever since.
Researchers with the University of Delaware and DuPont that they have developed a recipe for artificial bait that uses just a small amount of crab and food-grade chemicals that lasts four days. The researchers found that the recipe was as productive for catching eel and whelk as using a piece of crab in a trap.
"This artificial bait will allow fishermen to catch the same amount of eel and whelk but without using so much horseshoe crab meat," said Dr. Nancy Targett, Dean of the University of Delaware College of Earth, Ocean and Environment. "We can now reduce the long-term effects of horseshoe crab harvesting."
LaMonica Fine Foods in Millville, N.J., has started producing the bait and selling it in 50-bait slabs with a shelf life of at least three weeks for $1 per bait.
"Working with the reduced amount of horseshoe crab bait since the '90s has been such a burden on fishermen. With our eco-bait, fishermen will be able to save time and money," said James Roussos of LaMonica. "They no longer need to make their own bait from scratch and will be able to bring in the same catches they used to."

Have a chipped, broken, or stained tooth? Dental bonding can make it look like new again without causing too much damage to your budget.
"Bonding is a relatively inexpensive way to make minor dental repairs," says Kimberly Harms, DDS, a dentist in Farmington, Minn. and consumer advisor for the American Dental Association (ADA). Plus, dental bonding is sometimes covered by insurance.
What Is Dental Bonding?
Dental bonding is a cosmetic dentistry procedure in which a tooth-colored composite material is applied to a tooth, sculpted into shape, hardened, and polished. It's called bonding because the material bonds to the tooth. Dental bonding is ideal for small cosmetic dentistry work, such as fixing a broken or chipped tooth or closing small gaps between teeth. Dental bonding is also used as a tooth-colored filling for small cavities because it's more cosmetically appealing than silver fillings.
What Does Dental Bonding Involve?
Your dentist will first apply a gentle phosphoric acid to the surface of your teeth, which etches and roughens the surface to help the bonding material stay in place. This process doesn't hurt. The putty-like bonding material is then placed on the tooth's surface, shaped, and sculpted. A special light is used to help the material harden and set. Finally, the composite is polished and buffed for a smooth finish.

Pain at an Extraordinary Threshold, on and off the Field
Unless you're a protozoa, you've felt pain. If you're anything like me, your way of dealing with it is a cheerful skipping and dodging avoidance. Athletes, however, meet it head on and play through it at peril of being judged worthless or overpaid. What is our stake as an audience in watching them endure the varieties of pain, stingers, torn muscles, fractures, until some of them are practically outpatients by the end of a season?
The question has been popping up a lot lately. Redskins offensive lineman Chris Samuels is weighing whether to play again despite a neck injury that leaves him numb. Florida quarterback Tim Tebow returned to the football field just two weeks after a skull-rattling concussion, despite evidence that such behavior can lead to dementia. They apparently subscribe to the view that "pain is weakness leaving the body," as someone once said.
When your value is constantly measured by winning and you're compensated for it with millions of dollars, pretty soon competitive conquest gets confused with actual character. Athletes can be a pretty fraudulent bunch in this respect. But there's nothing phony about their willingness to confront pain.
The athletic mentality toward pain leads to the piercing question: How do athletes stack up with patients dealing with involuntary suffering, such as cancer, AIDS and other mortal illnesses? The intriguing juxtaposition of athletes and patients is of special interest to former Redskins coach Joe Gibbs, who on Wednesday was named honorary chair of the Festival of Heroes fundraising event for the Cancer Program at Children's National Medical Center. Gibbs's grandson Taylor had leukemia diagnosed at age 2, and is about to complete several months of spinal taps and chemotherapy treatments, hopefully without any regression. "And then you're gonna pray for the rest of your life," Gibbs says.
Gibbs regularly takes Taylor to his treatments, which has led him to ruminate on how a football player's courage compares to that of someone coping with illness. It's his observation that physical tolerance can be as randomly distributed as the lousy lottery that gives a child leukemia.
"There's mental toughness, obviously, and there's physical," he says. "Two guys can actually have the same injury, and one can play with it, and one can't. Then, there is the fact that some guys just don't get hurt -- they can play forever -- and some get hurt a lot. And there's always been the matter of, how much are you born with, and how much do you acquire? That's a wild one."
In Taylor's case, his first year of chemo was so severe he was left with no immune system and his parents needed rubber gloves to hold him. He had to be kept isolated in a basement for eight months. "The little movie 'Cars' bailed us out," Gibbs says. The boy appears to have a near-bottomless tolerance for pain, but Gibbs doesn't know if that's a result of his natural makeup, or the fact that he has become so conditioned to it. "Watching him go through it, he can't eat, he doesn't like it, doesn't like the feeling, but he didn't complain at all," Gibbs says. "It's just part of his life."
Athletes, unlike patients, seek out pain by choice. More important, they aren't satisfied unless they're feeling it, according to the actress-author Anna Deavere Smith, whose new Broadway show, "Let Me Down Easy," focuses on the capacities of the human body. Smith, who studies a wide variety of athletes in the show, observes that pain and contention are their ways of checking for vital signs, competition to them is life, and if they aren't working and suffering at it, then they're just barely living. Her character studies range from a boxer who was punched into a four-day coma to a rodeo cowboy who got stepped on by a 1,500-pound bull.
"I learned a valuable lesson," Deavere Smith says, channeling the boxer. "When you get hurt, as a fighter, don't panic."
Deavere Smith, a Tony-nominated actress-journalist-playwright, morphs into 20 different characters in 90 minutes, using the same acute ear and mimicry with which she studied race riots in "Twilight: Los Angeles." In the process she (like Gibbs) discovers "two extremes of toughness" in completely disparate personalities, a bull rider named Brent Williams and the physically clumsy yet mentally tough-as-nails film critic Joel Siegel, who was so ill with cancer he couldn't sit up when she interviewed him.
According to Williams, the bull rider, there's no legitimate explanation for how a 150-pound cowboy is able to stay on the back of a rearing bull weighing more than a ton. "What keeps you on the bull is det-er-min-ation," he says emphatically. On one occasion, Williams was trampled so badly he broke four ribs and two vertebrae and lost half his kidney. Another time, he asked a doctor to set his broken nose without anesthetic, so he could return to the ring and compete that night.
Siegel fought colon cancer for more than a decade, locked in a contest to see which would kill him first, the cancer or a chemo regimen so brutal he described it as "beating a dog with a stick to kill fleas." Never athletic, he surprised himself with his ability to withstand the beating. "I'm pretty tough," he said. "It shocked the [expletive] out of me to find out I was tough. I don't know where it comes from. I was always the last kid chosen in football, baseball. I think it comes from 3,000 years of being kicked around Europe."
What these athletes and patients have in common is an understanding that pain leads to self-discovery. Competition is about asserting one's physical dominance over the opponent, but real toughness is about asserting physical dominance over oneself. The most stirring victories are not just over foes but personal challenges.
Tiger Woods winning the 2000 U.S. Open at Pebble Beach by 15 shots was a feat of brilliance; Woods winning in 91 holes on one leg at Torrey Pines was a feat of toughness. The first is so otherworldly all we can do is gawk at it; the second is something we can admire in a more personal, human way. The cyclist Lance Armstrong discovered himself as a champion while fighting testicular cancer, because "cancer taught him about winning by presenting to him a real, palpable fear of failure, failure as death," Smith says. Armstrong told her, "I just didn't want to face this, this, this, demon called failure."
Athletes' continual engagement with pain is what gives them real moral weight as performers. Maybe the most important thing they offer us is the notion that ease is not the only thing worth seeking. Whether pain is voluntary or involuntary, in the long run it's inevitable for all of us, so we better learn to deal with it. So many of us treat pain as an alarm, a message to stop, whereas athletes treat it as a message that they're reaching their limit -- right where they're supposed to be.
"I don't read sports, don't watch, I barely know what third base means," Deavere Smith says. "But what athletes and athleticism has given me, as I think about wellness and health and winning and losing, and why some people die and why some don't, and knowing it has nothing to do with moral correctness, athletes taught me something about fearlessness with the hurt. That's not what animates them. And so many of us, our lives are animated around this avoidance of hurt, harm, doing anything we can to avoid being touched by pain."

A break in the corset
When my teeth get clenched from concentrating a bit too much, and the tea gets cold, maybe it means I need a "let's update to LJ" break.
This is the corset I patterned and started at the corsetry course. It is not meant to be historical, although I did use some victorian and edwardian inspiration. The outer sheel is black coutil (plain weave, with floral brocade coutil at the hip gores). The lining is an off-white and black stripe.
Today I have assembled it, put grommets in it, filed and inserted the bones. Here are the first pictures, graciously (if not very vertically) taken by the Home Geek. With optional BB8 mug, because it's my new mug and I love it. Not everything shows, because, well, black fabric !
Front :
Nice nipped in waist, good support for the breasts (and they don't want to escape either).
The part over the busc gapes a little, I am thinking about adding a little hook and eye to keep it in place.
The white lining peeks out from under the hook side of the busc, because once again I forgot to cut the CF lining piece in the same fabric as the outer shell. Too late to fix it, and I was out of fabric anyway.
Not visible in the pictures, a slight wrinkle on the second piece, under the outside of the boob.
Side :
Wrinkle on the third piece, right at the waist. Ugh !
Back :
Again, big wrinkle at the waist.
The lacing gap is what I wanted, I plan to add a modesty panel.
Visible pants line in the hip gores, not cool !
On the whole I am very pleased with how it turned out. I is *extremely* comfy to wear, I feel pretty sexy in it (the HG seems to agree).
Some of the wrinkles will disappear once the bones are secure in their casings, but I really feel like the third and fourth piece, at least, need more bones. The brocade coutil in the hip gores isn't as strong as the plain weave one, the lining has no body at all, so I can't leave those big hip gores with just one bone.
We worked with small spiral steels all around, but I'm not convinced by how the center back looks. I am putting german boning there - and at all the bones I am adding, too.
It looks like I might be able to finish this today... minus the flossing, because I don't think I can make a corset for myself and not add flossing. Flossing is pretty ! And I feel all this black si a little... plain by itself.

More than one metre of rain has fallen over the last few days in the metropolitan Houston area. Much of that rain has flowed into people's homes and cut off their roads and highways. That rain, which has been held back in reservoirs and bayous, is threatening to overflow earthen dams which would cause rapid life-threatening flooding. Hurricane Harvey: What you need to know Emergency services are struggling to cope with the ongoing situation, but there is every chance that there will be just as much rain still to fall. In the last 24 hours, Harvey has drifted back over the Gulf of Mexico, allowing it to garner more moisture and energy from the warm surface waters. Thousands seek shelter from floods after Harvey A second bout of record rainfall could well befall many parts of eastern Texas and Louisiana in the next 24 to 48 hours. The National Weather Service continues to issue warnings of "catastrophic" flooding as computer models show the potential for another 350 to 1,300 millimetres of rain - this would clearly mark Harvey the biggest rain-making storm system in US history. Predicted rainfall totals are based on computer models. There is no precedent for such an active weather system in this region, so there is some margin for error. But if another 1,300mm of rain was to fall in any area already under a metre of floodwater, it is difficult to see how the death toll will not increase dramatically. Harvey forces 30,000 people to evacuate in Texas Source: Al Jazeera and news agencies Tell us what you think

With a new 20.2-megapixel full-frame CMOS sensor, the Canon 1D X Mark II is here to stay. It offers a bump up from the 18MP resolution of the original 1D X. The advanced users' camera features a fixed optical low-pass filter on the image sensor. It is to help guard against moiré patterns and other aliasing artifacts.
Coupling with a pair of all-new image processors, the new DIGIC 6+ to be exact the new "Mark II" version. It chews through full-resolution images at up to 14 frames per second. You can even push the speed even faster up to 16fps when you use Live View.
Canon 1DX Mark II build and handling
Canon 1D X Mark II sports a built-in Digital Lens Optimizer function. The advanced level DSLR can now apply lens-specific diffraction compensation. You now enjoy chromatic aberration correction, distortion correction and peripheral illumination correction in-camera. It is potentially a big time-saver for the professional photographer.
As part of the Canon1D X Mark II's in-camera RAW processing, you can apply DLO corrections during JPEG conversions. Your workflow will be much faster
Canon 1DX Mark II Performance
The updated 20-megapixel full-frame sensor in the Canon 1D X Mark II is more than just a regular CMOS chip with a higher resolution. It's the first full-frame sensor with Canon's Dual Pixel CMOS AF technology.
Dual Pixel CMOS AF with on-chip phase-detect autofocus sensors helps for super-quick autofocusing during Live View still image shooting. You use too for quick, accurate and smooth AF video operation
Viewfinder on Canon 1DX Mark II
Canon 1D X Mark II set the pace for 1D-series models to have a touchscreen LCD. The 3.2-inch TFT LCD has 1.62-million dots of resolution. You have seven levels of brightness adjustment to select from. The display is fixed, and not articulated for the sake of durability.
In use, the touchscreen performs well. It's responsive and tap-to-focus to select new focus points and set subject-tracking all works smoothly and efficiently.
Videos on Canon 1DX Mark II
With the Canon 1D X Mark II, one captures Cinema 4K video 4096 x 2160 aka DCI 4K. All at up to 60fps. This advanced DSLR is ideal for high-resolution footage of not only action, sports, and other moving subjects. The camera lets you enjoy 4K video at 30fps (29.97), 24fps (23.98) and true cinema-centric 24.00fps. On the downside, this camera has no UHD 3840 x 2160 option.
For the long-time professional photographer, the 1DX Mark II is best when it comes to combining speed performance and ISO image quality for the Canon system. It is the real deal when you're paying for the best advanced Canon DSLR for sports, action, wildlife, or photojournalism.
- Excellent image quality, especially from RAWs
- Fantastic high ISO performance
- Fast autofocus with excellent tracking performance
- Incredible buffer capacity
- Robust build quality
- Massive, bulky and expensive
- Dual memory card slots use different formats
- Touchscreen feels underutilized

Interior of the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Brandes Residence (1952) fully furnished with Wright-designed custom-to-project redwood furniture in Sammamish, Washington. Famed modern architect Frank Lloyd Wright devised his "Usonian" home style to aim for middle-class affordability. The house is a modest 1,950 square feet, with three bedrooms, two bathrooms and a separate shop/office. It sits on a 3.2-acre wooded lot.
Known for its verdant landscape rich with mountains, lakes, rivers, and Puget Sound, the Pacific Northwest has long been a preferred home for people who have an affinity for nature and has attracted artists and architects who endeavor to express a special reverence for the natural world. Frank Lloyd Wright's fondness for the region began early in the 20th century as he traveled to Seattle in route to Japan. Although he had previously designed buildings for the area, the first executed Northwest commission was the Chauncey Griggs House (1946) in Tacoma, Washington. Two more buildings in Washington State -the Brandes House (1952) in Sammamish and the Tracy House (1955) in Normandy Park- followed within a decade.
Exterior of the Frank Lloyd Wright-designed Brandes Residence (1952) in Sammamish, Washington. Wright's Usonian house includes such features as low roof, carport, an open floor plan, masonry walls and clerestory windows. The Brandes home, built in 1952, also features redwood trim and Wright's original furniture. It's one of the three Frank Lloyd Wright homes in the Puget Sound area.
Interior of the Schuchart House (2009) by George Suyama in Broadmoo, Seattle.There is a lot to admire in this design, most specifically in the integration of the interior and exterior spaces, the placement of the house in the landscape, and the selection and detailing of materials. Each interior space relates directly to a dedicated private exterior space, while the house and gardens benefit from and add to the wider landscape beyond the site.
Interior of the Schuchart House (2009) by George Suyama & Schuchart|Dow in Broadmoo, Seattle. This project is about space that is created between a site's topography and its architectural forms. The result is a house that is seamless in its connection to the landscape. Near perfection in precise detailing: a rigorous, economical, and coherent design statement.
April 4-6, 2014, the Wright Conservancy will host the "Out and About Wright: Enhancing Wright's Legacy In The Pacific Northwest" event that will include tours of the Wright-designed Brandes and Tracy Houses as well as several private homes by contemporary architect George Suyama. Prior to the architectural tour Grant Hildebrand, professor emeritus at the University of Washington in Seattle and author of The Wright Space, will expand on themes from his recent book, Suyama: A Complex Serenity, as he discusses the philosophical connections between Wright and Suyama.
The elegant Seattle home (blueprint & interior) of the influential art collector Barney A. Ebsworth, owner of one of the most important private collections of modern American art. The house was designed specifically for the collection by Olson Kundig Architects, which includes important paintings and sculptures by Hopper, deKooning, Pollock, O'Keefe, Johns, Hockney and Calder among many others.
The Conservancy will also host an evening reception at the extraordinary lakefront house of Barney Ebsworth. The home, designed by Jim Olson of Olson Kundig, houses Ebsworth's world-class collection of 20th century American art and is comprised of three individual pavilions linked by glass-enclosed walkways. Described as both a place superbly suited to display works of art as well as being a work of art in its own right, touring the house is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to experience a complete and harmonious integration of art, architecture and nature.
For more information see the Frank Lloyd Wright Building Conservancy
The Books & About
In this book The Wright Space: Pattern & Meaning In Frank Lloyd Wright's Houses thirty-three of Wright's domestic buildings, including all of the major houses on which his significance depends, are analyzed in detail in terms of their spatial characteristics. Fireplaces, seating, ceiling form, glazing, terraces, and roof overhangs are seen to follow a repetitive organization or pattern characterized by complementary juxtapositions of what the English geographer Jay Appleton calls "prospect" (a condition in which one can see over a considerable distance) and "refuge" (a place where one can hide).
According to Appleton's theory of landscape aesthetics, this juxtaposition offers the ability to see without being seen (or to hunt successfully without being, in turn, successfully hunted) and thus, eons ago, had survival value. But such a condition must have been sought, originally, because it was intrinsically pleasurable to our species. Hildebrand finds a striking correlation in Wright's houses. Wright's pattern of prospect and refuge, to which are added similarly derived qualities of complexity and order, is shown to be unique in domestic architecture to the degree to which it provides these preferred characteristics, suggesting why -in spite of serious drawbacks- his houses were built and valued by so many clients.
George Suyama began his architectural practice in Seattle in 1971; his early career is marked by a number of distinguished designs in the contemporaneous wood idiom of the region. Over time, however, Suyama developed an architecture characterized by a search for minimalist simplicity, a paradoxical architecture of intense, even exciting, tranquility.
In 2002, he and partners Ric Peterson and Jay Deguchi established Suyama Peterson Deguchi. Their firm has built a distinguished reputation by means of designs influenced by the immediate region and by Suyama's ancestral Japan, which are intimately related to site and executed with an astonishing finesse of detail. Above all, their architecture reflects Suyama's quest to eliminate what he calls "visual noise," a quest that has yielded not visual silence but a kind of visual music. Architectural elements are distilled to a purity analogous to that of a musical tone, and relationships between those elements are as pure and artistically rich as the mathematics of music.
In Suyama: A Complex Serenity, Grant Hildebrand introduces the man and his work, discussing relevant aspects of Suyama's life, the influences that have shaped his beliefs, and, in layman's terminology, twenty of his built and unbuilt projects that illuminate the development of his remarkable art and craft. Included also are appendices that illustrate Suyama's deep and long-standing involvement with the arts and product design.
Grant Hildebrand is a University of Washington professor emeritus of architecture and art history and author of seven books on architecture, including The Wright Space: Pattern and Meaning in Frank Lloyd Wright's Houses and Frank Lloyd Wright's Palmer House. He is a recipient of the Washington Governor's Writers Award for work of literary merit and lasting value.

You can download that on this page
near the bottom it has links for many intermediate versions. But again 2004 would be the only one that you need and you might not even need that.
it was in the post above
here it is again
ok what is wrong with the 03 ?
all you really need is the data file that ends with .qdf
the new quicken or the 04 that you can download from the link can open that qdf file without the 03

"My many years working as a psychologist have taught me that growth on any issue is possible with motivation, and that a person's strengths are key to achieving one's goals. I am every bit as attuned to an individual's gifts and coping skills, as I am to the challenges faced. I foster a safe, comfortable atmosphere as the process depends on feeling at ease to say what is on one's mind. My clients comment on my listening well and deeply, and that I have helped them make connections that are extremely valuable in identifying a path that is right for them."
"I am a high- energy, thoughtful well-educated professional who knows how to listen and make a positive relationship with clients looking for support.

I operate through a strengths -based perspective allowing you to view yourself through a positive lens.I offer supervision for MSW students, help professionals pass the LCSW and offer a peer supervision group each month.Call for more information at 302-383-2078"
"My approach to therapy is first to fully understand your difficulties and then work with you to find the best ways to make changes that promote growth and personal fulfillment. I believe that it is crucial for you to feel that therapy is a safe space where together we can explore, examine, and be curious about your experiences and your relationships with other people. In my years of practicing, I have found that many distressing symptoms (such as anxiety and depression) often disappear when people have the opportunity to look closely at their relationships with others."
"I specialize in addictions ( adult, adolescent, spouse, and family) and most mental health / emotional issues such as depression, anxiety (children, adolescents, adults) bi-polar disorder, adolescent issues, coping with stress, transitions, and self esteem. I use Mindfullness, Cognitive Therapy (CBT and DBT) primarily but I'm comfortable in several modalities and will utilize them as appropriate. I am an interactive therapist and I'm willing to give an opinion. I am particularly good with clients who are dually diagnosed (addiction and mental health)."
"Finding a good psychologist can be a challenge. While many practitioners may be geographically convenient, you are most likely to benefit from a therapeutic relationship in which there is a good fit between client and therapist and in which the therapist brings knowledge and experience. I have been practicing since 1991 and believe in the ability of each of us to make significant and lasting changes in our lives. I think you will find that I listen well to your needs and bring a complement of skills to address a variety of issues, including anxiety, depression, relationship issues, chronic weight problems, parenting concerns, and procrastination."
"In psychodynamic treatment, we enter a journey together to understand behaviors and feelings that just don't make sense; to Prevent the Past from interfering in the Present; to improve personal relationships; to change lifelong ways of coping that don't work; and finally to stop self-destructive behavior patterns. Please consider our work together an adventure in life - and not that of a "sick" patient with an all-knowing doctor! I welcome you to make an exciting journey with me that promotes self-understanding, a internal sense of peace, and the feeling of being comfortable in your own skin."
"A full-range of high-quality mental health services are provided so you can achieve true emotional and spiritual freedom. Rest assured you will be treated with the utmost respect in a warm, trusting, and empathic environment. The latest evidence-based treatment interventions will be considered first. For example, if you suffer from depression or anxiety, cognitive behavioral therapy will typically be employed as they've been proven the most effective. Actively working together we will focus on solutions tailored to your unique concerns. Every effort will be made to help you achieve your personal goals in a timely manner."

Eco-town move for Picton
Branding Picton an eco-town and gaining United Nations' Biosphere status to give the town international profile is one idea the Marlborough District Council has been encouraged to consider.
A briefing paper to councillors from an informal group of Picton people was to be distributed to councillors today by Marlborough Mayor Alistair Sowman.
The group got together to think of ways to boost the town, once they knew the interisland ferry terminal would remain.
The Government decided late last year to keep the ferries in Picton rather than move them to Clifford Bay, south of Seddon.
This month, KiwiRail put its Clifford Bay land on the market. Tenders on that are due later this month.
The briefing note has not been made public yet, but Sowman said it included:
Bring the Picton Museum and the National Whale Centre together so one building can be located at a place which best enables whaling to be developed as a major tourism theme for Picton. Consider the possibility of a Library/community hub as part of this project.
Advance the Link Pathway between Picton and Havelock, completing the Picton-Linkwater stage first but also ensuring it is connected to a path between Picton at Lagoon Rd and the lookout point where the Link Pathway begins.
Explore the possibility of removing kerbside parking on both sides of London Quay between the roundabout and entrance to the foreshore to encourage pedestrians and more street side cafe/dining with an unimpeded view of the waterfront.
Find a solution to the parking requirements for campervans as part of a wider review of parking in Picton.
Make sure that town signage decisions are made in conjunction with the imagery in "The Marlborough Story" once that is settled.
Explore the possibility of the Marlborough Sounds gaining United Nations Economic Social and Cultural Organisation Biosphere status to give the town international profile for the way it balances the demands of people and the natural environment.
Sowman said the group had met several times in the last few months to discuss the future direction for the town and the kind of projects and priorities that might benefit the town, and they had invited him and Picton councillors to join their discussions.
There had been many ideas tossed around since the ferry decision came through, Sowman said, and it was good to see this group get the ball rolling by putting up some specific ideas.
"They've come up with projects that would make a significant difference to the town's future and we want everyone to talk about these ideas to see whether or not there's widespread community agreement."
The Think Tank says focus is needed on attracting more visitors to Picton and encouraging them to stay longer and to make Picton their base for exploring the rest of the region. More could be done to capitalise on the increase in cruise ship visitors due to visit in the immediate future and to ensure the million ferry passengers who use the ferries each year are diverted toward the Picton town centre.

Sunday, June 16, 2002
Our landlords insisted on cooking our first Croatian dinner, so Antun is grilling whole fish smothered with parsley and garlic in the outdoor stone fireplace, while Marija unmolds a flan draped in caramel and perfumed like roses. The sun is melting on a mountain ridge and the sea is turning from gold to red to pink, as cruise ships head across the bay like floating strands of Christmas lights.
And as we recall how much our loved ones back home are worrying about our safety ("Aren't they still fighting over there?"), we feel almost guilty.
We'd been dreaming for decades about visiting Dubrovnik, on Yugoslavia's Dalmatian Coast. Yugoslavia was the Friendly Communist Country, and Dubrovnik was the Renaissance jewel of Eastern Europe.
But we kept putting off the trip -- and in 1991, the Balkans exploded into war. Historians will probably argue eternally about precisely what triggered one of the worst bursts of genocide since World War II, but perhaps they could agree on some limited facts: The leaders of Croatia, one of the republics of Yugoslavia, declared that they were seceding from the nation and forming an independent country. Slobodan Milosevic, then Yugoslavia's dictator, sent in his army to try to prevent it. And Dubrovnik became one of the war's first victims.
Yugoslav troops fanned out on the mountain ridges that overlook Dubrovnik and warships closed off the sea. For more than seven months, they hurled artillery and mortar shells at the city as the international community watched in shock. The world would learn about the carnage in places like Sarajevo and Kosovo later, but back then, in the first months of 1992, it seemed incomprehensible that Milosevic would order his troops to bombard an ancient, cherished city filled with civilians, apparently out of spite. The United Nations reported that two-thirds of the churches, palaces and proud old houses had been hit. Some had been gutted.
So we were astonished when we ran into an acquaintance a couple years ago who had just returned from a work trip in the Balkans, and he said, "Want me to tell you a secret? Go to Dubrovnik, and go soon. Go before every other tourist in the world finds out that Dubrovnik has been repaired. In fact, it might be more beautiful than ever."
Cultural SurvivalSometimes we start our days by meeting Darija, our guide and interpreter, at our favorite cafe in Old Town. To get there from our house on Zaton Bay, we drive for 20 minutes through layers of history, like sediment layers on a cliff: We pass hillsides of drab, communist-era apartments on the outskirts, then park in the faded Victorian quarter of "new" Dubrovnik; we cross the old moat and stroll through one of the massive gates in the medieval walls -- and suddenly, we enter a time warp. Dubrovnik is a magic pedestrian world where almost every cobblestone, statue and doorway was built between the 13th and 17th centuries -- unless, of course, it's been restored since the Balkans War.
The place feels a bit disorienting: The facades look Italian but the people crowding the alleys look and sound almost Russian. It's a Slavic Venice without canals.
And the marble tables of the sprawling Gradska Kavana cafe make a great stage for people-watching -- no wonder leaders of the old communist regime used to hang out here. When we sit on one side of the cafe, we gaze over Dubrovnik's little marina, where fishing boats and cabin cruisers rock at the base of the fortified walls. When we choose the other side, under the fuchsia awnings, we look up at the baroque dome and columns of St. Blaise church. On weekends, the organ spills through the stained-glass windows, and we linger over espressos so we can watch wedding parties pose and mug on the steps.
"Hello," a voice says in soft, accented English, and there's a striking young woman with a delicate hoop piercing her belly button. Darija. We've never hired a guide and interpreter before on vacation, but this young artist could use the extra work, and we figure she's a friendly way to get to know Croatia.
"You can't possibly imagine what this town was like during the war," Darija says. "The morning it started, it was the first day of school. My brother and me, we were excited, we were going to see our friends again. My parents were dressing for work. And I went outside when I heard something" -- she pauses, searching for the right word -- "something like thunder. But it was so strange, because the sky was completely bright. Then we heard that the Serb soldiers were coming down from the mountains to kill all of us with their knives."

7 Things You Should Know About Homeowners Insurance
Having your own home is exciting, yet home ownership is filled with responsibility and challenges. From meeting the mortgage payments each month to making sure your insurance coverage is up to par with what you own are just a couple of the responsibilities. A proper understanding of Chicago, IL homeowner's insurance will guide you in making the best decision for coverage. As we look into the life of several fictional characters, let's examine 7 things you should know about homeowner's insurance.
Homeowner's insurance covers all external structure(s) on your property.
Jon and Sue owned six acres of land on the outskirts of Chicago, Illinois. Jon, a retiree, decided now was the perfect time to follow his passion for restoring old cars. It had been a hobby of his in his younger days. A nice-sized poll building was erected on the premises; this would be where all of the transformations to his old cars would take place. Monday started out as just another typical day with Jon grinding, spreading bondo, and preparing to paint, but that night while he slept a small fire started on the property and spread to the building before he awoke. By the time the firefighters arrived, several sections of the building had been badly damaged, as well as the car. However, he knew his homeowner's insurance, through Illinois Insurance Center, had him covered. All of the buildings on the property, including his shed, poll building, and garage were covered under the policy. What type of damage does insurance cover? This is referred to as "covered perils" and includes coverage for unusual situations such as fires, strong storms, or thefts.
Homeowner's insurance can help if you are displaced due to severe damage.
Ray had recently moved into a small two bedroom home in the suburbs of Chicago. One summer day, a strong storm blew in a tornado while Ray was at work. When he arrived home from work, he saw that the roof was completely blown off in several spots and part of one wall had collapsed. His home was not only badly damaged, it was unlivable. Ray was glad he had decided to purchase additional coverage that helped in times like this. While his house was getting repaired, Illinois Insurance Center would set him up with comfortable living arrangements in a hotel near his work. This feature of the policy fell under additional living costs.
Homeowner's insurance can be modified to include additional coverage(s).
Other individuals discover the benefits of a homeowner's insurance that is flexible and customizable. Other add on features include:
Personal property replacement cost: Chloe was glad she had invested in this add-on, which didn't really cost much extra at all. When a flooded basement destroyed a room full of furniture, coverage paid her what it cost to buy the items brand new that day, not what she paid for them originally.
Building guaranteed replacement cost: Daniel's house was destroyed in a fire. After assessing the damage it was determined it could not be rebuilt. Daniel had added the building guarantee replacement cost feature from Illinois Insurance Center; the insurance would exceed his current policy by up to 20 % in order to guarantee replacement of his home.
Refrigerated products: Ben and Shannon were so excited to spend a week at Niagara Falls for their anniversary. Their joy, however, deflated when they returned home to find that a powerful storm had knocked out the power in the area for several days spoiling all their refrigerated goods. Adding refrigerated products coverage, ensures your items are replaced in an event of damaged goods.
Homeowner's insurance covers medical and/or legal expenses if others are injured on your property.
Rick enjoyed entertaining guests at his large home with a pool. But that came swiftly to an end when one of his guest's child slipped while running on the deck of the pool and fell. The injuries were moderate but costly. Rick's homeowner's insurance would cover the child's medical costs, and in the event the parents chose to sue him, he could count on his policy to help him out with liability insurance.
Homeowner's insurance covers personal possessions inside or outside the home.
Jack is a regular guy living in a suburban area with a typical 8 – 5 pm job. He also happens to enjoy golfing; he once used the clubs while working towards the pro-tour. Now, with life going in a different direction, the prized set of golf clubs hold sentimental as well as monetary value. One day while off work, he decides to head to the greens with his clubs in the trunk; on the way, work called with an emergency, and he had to go in. Imagine his shock when he later discovered his vehicle broken into and his clubs stolen. Thankfully, his homeowner's policy covered his personal possessions wherever he took them.
Homeowner's insurance works best with the aid of personalized service.
Sarah and Bob looked online and found a quick insurance quote and signed up without actually speaking to or meeting anyone. But they found out the hard way that they should have taken the time for an appointment and personalized service. They called Illinois Insurance Center and a friendly agent assisted them with getting the best coverage to fit their particular needs.
Homeowner's insurance prepares you for the unexpected so you won't be caught off guard.
We all like to think that the worst won't happen to our home or our possessions, but if it does, having the proper coverage on your policy is essential. Illinois Insurance Center has been a trusted insurance name in the Chicago area since 1973. If you would like to discuss how we can provide you the best homeowner's insurance, please contact us today!

Writing with your sneakers on
I'm sitting in the overhanging atrium of the public library cafe, surrounded by glass louver windows. I've just been handed a coffee by the sour barista, and I chuckle that she has included a sweet flower-shaped cookie.
Outside in the dirt car park of the shire offices I can see two fire trucks and three firemen rolling out hoses to test the local fire plugs; or perhaps to fill up their tanks from the water main. If the boys were here, they would be jumping out of their skin, me commentating on the action like a race caller, as we did at 6am when the rubbish truck passed by our back gate. Now there are four firemen, another having emerged from the twin cab truck. But the boys aren't here. Funny how much children shape a parent's frame of reference, even when they are absent. I sit at a table for four, even though there is only one of me.
It is becoming increasingly hard to find time to write. It seems the choice for my "free-time" (for free time always comes at a cost) is health vs. writing; last week I found myself at the gym three times, and wrote nothing other than what I was paid to write. This week, I've written around 3,000 words so far. Gym trips or walks: 0. I don't know how to settle this score. I'm slightly overweight, neck and back pain slow me down, and yet the gravitational pull of my desk is far stronger than that of the treadmill. A treadmill with a keyboard would perhaps be the ideal solution.
I've began work on a major project, which is still just a baby but will hopefully yield a workable first draft. It comes at a time when I'm also taking on more paid writing work, and the demands at home are unabated. A writing routine alludes me, despite Mr Karen now working part-time. He still takes first bite at our days, and I wipe up the crumbs; this is the nature of his work, which involves juggling his job, running a building business from home, plus his responsibilities at home. That said, I was at the library at 9am this morning, so I won't complain. Writing is flexible, and pays less, two factors which ultimately determine how we divide our days.
Mr Karen has this morning dropped Hamish at kinder and Louis at school, and when I left home he was just arriving in the back gate with Ruben. Ruben, in the blue pram with the beige sun hat, gripping his stuffed rabbit in one hand and in the other clutching a zip lock bag full of dry cereal. There was promise of a play in the garden with daddy. It sounds almost perfect.
May good work spring from what Joanna Murray-Smith calls this "voluptuous, ramshackle life" of motherhood. I can only believe that it will.
Do you have a writing routine? Do you think routine is important to creating a volume of work, or do you think routine is the antithesis of creativity?
21 Responses to "Writing with your sneakers on"
Karen – I've been a crying mess this morning trying to work out this exact dilemma. I had visions of writing and writing and writing and being a fabulous, present mama and being fit and healthy when I stepped away from the beige government world. I find that the more I chase my dreams the more I cant fit it all in. My blog is like a barren waste land as i battle to refine (for the third time) my three chapters of my thesis and my ass is so flat at the end of some days from sitting in the same spot 13 seconds after depositing the children at day care and school only to stand up to race back and get them. It's bloody exhausting but the best part – I finally have a job where my Birkenstocks are my uniform x
A treadmill with a keyboard is the most seriously genius thing I've ever heard!! I WANT!!!!
PS I didn't know you had a Ruben ("right" spelling and all), I have one too 😉
When I have something I need to say time makes itself.
Sometimes I wonder about all the half baked thoughts I didn't write down; would I have a novel by now?
My husband's job can be quite demanding so I'm often too exhausted to write by the time he gets home. I don't have a routine. I do most of my writing when an assignment is imminent and I'm under pressure. As for the whole exercise issue – I went and signed up for a 14km run to force my hand and my husband has promised to be home early one night a week and that has helped a little.
It's probably not my greatest work but it gets the job done 🙂
I know that health vs. writing thing all too well. The constant juggling to find time. I steal time from everywhere in my 'voluptuous ramshackle life' of motherhood. So the answer is no. No routine here. Maybe when the kids are older. Maybe when the insanity dies down. I yearn for it. Lovely to hear your words, Karen. x
I vote for routine. Especially with kids around, if you don't have the routine you will just never find the time. "I start work at 10 in the morning & the muses have learnt to be on time" – Tchaikovsky
I go for long walks with a dictaphone – that way I can work the brain and the bum. Of course, I have to type it out at some point, but this is easier than coming up with ideas in the first place – and quicker too. It's also a great way for getting through block, because let's face it, even when we can't write, we can always talk…
I recently saw a Jeanette Winterson interview & she said the one thing she wanted her creative writing students to learn was the importance of showing up everyday. It can be hard, really hard & definitely feels contrary to creativity, but routine is vital.
By the way, this is a case of do as I say, not as I do!
Such a good question, this! I think I'm supposed to believe that a routine is necessary and in many parts of my life and I am better for one but I cannot seem to do it with my writing. Not the pure creative stuff. Unless you count a deadline as a routine. Then it will get done.
Writing time always feel like it's stolen from someone or something else – work, home, family, fitness, sleep, M.A. I carry notebooks and try to capture thoughts to develop when I can. Not often enough.
I have a Ruben, spelt right, too.
I am totally timetabled.. it is boring but it works and at the end of the day when I have ticked the exercise and work box I smile with glee x
Stop right there Karen! Slightly overweight? Not even a little bit! You look absolutely fabulous and slim, seriously.
