SCRANTON, Pa. (AP) -- Senator Joe Biden has revisited his boyhood town of Scranton, Pennsylvania, with his 91-year-old mother.
Pennsylvania is one of the battleground states this fall. Scranton itself has many Democrats, but they're socially conservative and largely spurned Biden's running mate, Barack Obama, during the primaries.
Biden's brother, Jimmy, joined him and their mother at the three-story home where they lived until 1953, when the family moved to Delaware. He was 10 when they left Scranton and says it's where his family values and his Catholic faith melded.
Biden attended Scranton's Italian festival with Pennsylvania Governor Ed Rendell, where he urged support for hurricane victims and promised a return trip. Earlier, Biden canceled plans to march in a Labor Day parade in Pittsburgh because of Hurricane Gustav.

Ouidah, Benin
When there is a big gathering (party, funeral, wedding, etc.) here in Benin the thing to do is to buy the same fabric and get matching outfits made. Which is why I decided to make the Colette Peony featuring this wavy Vlisco print for the retirement party of the principal at the school where I volunteer at. It's a way of showing solidarity with the hosts – and fun as well to be matchy matchy with everybody else!
I wrote more in my sewing journal here: http://cathywu.com/journal/treadling/2013/07/22/colette-peony-matching-vlisco-fabric-la-fte/

We use these to bake an egg/croissant breakfast dish and have been very pleased. We bake with them, freeze them, refrigerate them, and reheat them in the microwave and over and they hold up extremely well. Sometimes it seems like they leave a bitter taste on the dish if they are microwaved, however, but we have never gotten any complaints.

MINNEAPOLIS - OCTOBER 05: Defensive end Jared Allen #69 of the Minnesota Vikings pumps up the crowd during the Monday Night Football game against the Green Bay Packers on October 5, 2009 at Hubert H. Humphrey Metrodome in Minneapolis, Minnesota. (Photo by Jamie Squire/Getty Images)
Minnesota Vikings defensive end Jared Allen has been fined $21,000 for a hit on Chicago Bears guard Lance Louis on Sunday. A person with knowledge of the fine tells The Associated Press that it was levied Wednesday, three days after he knocked Louis out for the season with a hit that injured Louis' left knee. The person requested anonymity because the league has not announced the fine. Allen hit Louis after an interception by Antoine Winfield. Louis didn't see Allen coming, and his leg stuck in the turf on the hit and tore the ACL in his left knee. Several Bears, including coach Lovie Smith, said they thought the hit was unnecessary and dirty. Allen said after the game he never intended to injure Louis.

|Younis Khan, Intikhab Alam
|Pakistan in Sri Lanka 2009
DateLine: 19th July 2009
Younis Khan is looking to inject some momentum when the final Test against Sri Lanka begins in Colombo.
 Less than a month after winning the World Twenty20, Pakistan have lost two Tests against Sri Lanka which has helped the home side take an unassailable 2-0 lead in the three-match series.
 These losses have led to charges of disunity in the team from all quarters.
 The accusations gained force when Younis hit out at his under-performing middle-order following defeat inside three days in the second Test at the P Sara Oval.
 One of the major reasons for Pakistan's defeats have been astonishing batting collapses, all of which has helped Sri Lanka secure their first series victory over their opponents at home.
 Younis, the frank man he is has had no qualms in admitting that his team was playing way below potential.
 "The team is only about 20% away from being where I want it to be," Younus said.
 "For short periods we play great cricket, but then let ourselves down by showing a lack of application.
 "Once again it comes down to the lack of Test cricket we have played over the last two years.
 "We will be playing for pride and want to get some momentum going into the one-dayers."
 Meanwhile coach Intikhab Alam rubbished allegations of infighting in the team and has called for a leap of faith among the current squad.
 "It is nothing new in Pakistan cricket, but I can only urge our former players not to do things which will damage their own team," Alam said.
 "The batting has let us down badly, but we can't afford another failure.
 "No player wants to fail. I think our senior players are just going through a bad time and need support."

lots of holding the space bar then making the smilie
hi renn!
I recommend it. It's a solid film with solid actors.
Hahaha yes it is. As a matter of fact I just bought it for the Nintendo Wii. It's actually my first time playing this franchise. Was always more of a Harvest moon kind of guy.
I made another poem alittle while ago mainly from my fears, but I think it is better that the first oe I posted. The first one was for heart. This one was from my fear. Tell me what ya think.
Ima brainstorm and work out another poem before I log off for bed. . I wanna try to be a more active writer. Stories and poems. I also wanna start drawing more. I love to do all those, but I am so self-concious about em it sucks. I need to ignore some of the responses I got got to my story Kalderim and finish that too sometime.
BTW I am alway open for advice. puhwease gimme advice from time to time XD.
Don't get me wrong. I love the poem. I think it is great. Just needed to work on the effect a bit more lolz. I think if ya take more time and tweek your poems, you'd be great.
But My poem is about what I am going thru right now. Which SUCKS!
That is alittle overboard. Starting EVERY sentance with "The moment i touch you" is alittle to much. I admit I used to many to's, but I used it for a more broad effect. Yo kinda over did it. Plus I think you should experimented with better words. Words that sounded more fluid. I messed up myself with the wording, but I tried and so did you .
But a tip--If ya gonna use the repeat effect. Enter the rest of it in the next line and place a comma after. Looks better and shows the effect better .
But I like yours A LOT. I think it might be better than mine if ya made it more longer and emotional
The reason there is a lot of "To" is for effect lolz. It is a poem I wrote in school for a grade and the damn teach read it in front of everyone cause it was the best poem out of all 7 of her classes. I was PISSED! but i decided get over the fear and post it on AO also.

PLAYERS: Bob Arum, Manny Pacquiao, Timothy Bradley, Roy Jones Jr.
If you watched the fight between what most consider the world's best boxer, Manny Pacquiao, and now new welterweight title holder, Timothy Bradley, you know Pacquiao won. It was arguably one of the most controversial outcomes since Roy Jones Jr. was robbed in the Seoul Olympics of 1988. Due to the uproar of media and public since the fight, promoter Bob Arum says he will not allow a Pacquiao-Bradley rematch until the Nevada attorney general, Catherine Cortez Masto, initiates an investigation. Bradley, who was a 4-1 underdog entering the fight, upset Pacquiao in a split-decision. All three judges scored the bout 115-113, with Duane Ford and C.J. Ross proclaiming Bradley the winner and Jerry Roth siding with Pacquiao. Arum's company, Top Rank, promotes both Pacquiao and Bradley causing fans and media to question whether he or his company had rigged the fight in Bradley's favor. Because of this, Arum is demanding an investigation stating: "I want to investigate whether there was...

Posted Jun 13, 2014, 11:00am
If a plant is covered in spikes or spines and cold-hardy enough for Portland, chances are Loree Bohl grows it in her "Danger Garden." The 50-by-100-foot patch of prickles in Northeast Portland is also the subject of Bohl's prolific blog, in which she chronicles her horticultural pursuits every day in words and pictures. "I have a horrifying gardening style—a peony next to a paddle cactus," she says. "It makes proper gardeners shudder, but somehow it works for me."

Toy taken from Willie Nelson's band returned in NY
PORT CHESTER, N.Y. (AP) - A theater manager says a stuffed armadillo that was stolen from Willie Nelson's band after a show in suburban New York has been returned unharmed.
He says the band isn't pressing charges.
The toy critter, known to the band as Ol' Dillo, disappeared after a Sept. 19 concert at the Capitol Theatre in Port Chester. Bailey says the armadillo was a treasured possession of Nelson's monitor engineer, Aaron Foye.
Video shows a woman snatching it away. General manager Tom Bailey says a different woman brought the armadillo to the box office Friday in a sealed box. She did not identify herself.
Bailey says theater staffers believe they know who stole the armadillo, but he says Nelson's road manager said Foye would not press charges.

This game is quality. You don't so much play it, but experience it...Invisible War gives us a new vision and for that we are nothing less than extremely grateful. It's legend time, right here.
Its nice to see those of us who own the best hardware benefit from titles that actually push its limits; this seems to be the antithesis to many developers strategies, but one that will keep me an Eidos fan for a long time.
Fans of the first game will find a lot to like here. But newcomers and those with unrealistic expectations will inevitably discover either that the multitude of references to the previous game will cause confusion, or that the few technical improvements do little to offset the fact that this is merely a logical upgrade.
Its difficult to convey a story in first person form without the use of heavy scripting and this is something that Warren and the boys havent gotten quite right.
The game offers unparalleled variety and choice in the actual gameplay. The non-intrusive design sets just as much of a precedent as did Deus Ex, which is a joy to realize. The game feels a bit short -- especially considering how much choice the player is given -- and the presentation values could have been polished up more, but it's an experience like no other.
Invisible War kind of looks like it was meant to be a much, much better game than it is, with a lot of half-finished ideas that aren't taken quite far enough.

BingH.Dec 6, 2003Best game I have ever seen.
AlexN.Nov 13, 2003Best game of Christmas 2004! The bumped maping and awesome story and physics, I give it a 10!
JohnS.Dec 26, 2003This is certainly a runner-up candidate for RPG game of the year (next to Knights of the Old Republic and Morrowind). Although, it is a bit more linear than a traditional RPG, it does offer some FPShooter thrills. The story, mood, graphics, and gameplay make it almost as involving as Halo and KOTOR -- you just want to see how it ends. Also, you must give credit to Warren Spector for making a game where you can use several different options (stealth, combat, social skills, biomods, robots) to acheive most any objective. In that respect, I tell people this is "KOTOR meets Splinter Cell", and favorably place it among those highly regarded works as among the best the Xbox offers.… Expand
Youaremydad.Dec 8, 2003Being a serious Morrowind dork, I was really looking forward to a huge open-ended RPG. I've never played the first Deus Ex, but from the reviews I've read, I thought this game would blow me away. It's definitely a fun game, and somewhat open-ended -- but it doesn't blow me away. First of all, there's almost no freedom to explore the world of the game...you can go all over whatever city you're in, but you can't go back and forth at will between cities...the environments, though expansive and intricately designed, are more like levels in a shooter than "worlds" -- which bugs me because, like I said, I'm a serious Morrowind dork. Not to compare this game with Morrowind, though -- it's a completely different experience...so different I have a hard time thinking of it as an RPG. Much more action-oriented. A good example is that there's no resting or sleeping to heal yourself -- in an RPG, resting (or whatever they call it) is essential to maintaining the sense of an ongoing quest. Deus Ex forces you to find little bits of food or very randomly dispersed "medical bots" (unless you have the regeneration biomod, of course) . No inns, no home base, etc. This to me stinks of an action game. Then, of course, there's the lack of leveling up...though I do appreciate what Ion Storm tried to do in eliminating some RPG cliches, it's just not strong enough as a shooter to not be an RPG. Does that make sense? The lack of some typical RPG elements, like leveling up, "resting" or skills makes it frustrating if you approach the game as an RPG. At the same time, with the tendancy to go all crappy when more than two people are firing at you, it's also frustrating to approach it as a shooter. The story is interesting, but despite the ability to decide who you're working for, it's actually pretty linear. No matter what you decide, you're going to go to the same place as a result of it and either do one thing for one group or the opposite for the rival. Anyway, I don't mean to put the game down...exactly. I would've liked more freedom to roam and tweek my dude. Other than that I basically enjoy it.… Expand
MichaelR.Dec 8, 2003Big shoes to fill, considering how good the first one was. This one's dumbed-down and much shorter, and stresses the choice angle instead of character development. Many things were changed that didn't need to be--weapons & ammo (everything uses the same ammo, and only 2 mods/wepaon are allowed), the interface (the new one looks cool at first but ends up being a neverending nuisance) and skills acquisition (gone) come to mind. Mods are somewhat more useful (in particular, the obscenely high energy requirements for many have been reduced) but absurdly easy to get, and your success relies too heavily on them. The plot is interesting but much less engaging (and ultimately, surprising) than the original. I'd have been happier with an expansion pack that just smartened up the AI a little, improved the visuals, and left the interface alone. Considering they had three years to work on this, the shortness is truly disappointing. Could have been much better, but still a worthwhile diversion. … Expand
PaulO.Jul 23, 2004A disappointing sequel to an excellent game. Invisible war strips out everything that made the first one unique and enjoyable and leaves nothing but a skeleton of a game. There is no skill system, apparently you start off as an expert with a rail cannon the first time you use it. You're given pretty much all the nanotech enhancements you need at the start of the game. All guns have the same ammo. Let me repeat that, ALL GUNS HAVE THE SAME AMMO. Whoever thought that was a smart idea should learn the difference between a rocket and a 9mm bullet when they put it in the guy's head. They even made using keypads automatic... no more punching in numbers. It was inconvinent, yeah, but it put you in the world. It made the game feel more alive. They watered the game down WAY too much. The only reason I played all the way through this game is to see what happened to JC at the end. But the graphics sure are pretty, aren't they?… Expand

After a short wait, we can now give you a full look at UBIQ's new Vans Vault project.

The Vans Vault versions of the Era and the Sk8-Hi from the collection both feature your traditional dragon and samurai fare, with the latter figures even rocking Vans footwear (We're pretty sure that's not historically accurate). Take a look at the two pairs with us below and watch for them to release on November 9th, 2013.

The Problems i experienced are with the s:\ drive mappings on the rds server not always mapping. I resolved this by changing the shortcut path to 'pulsar.exe'
I also have to manually update the servers when capita releases an update, although this isnt too bad as they dont release them that often and we only have 4 rds servers.

Miller To Miss Sabres-Rangers Showdown
by @DaveDavisHockey on 03/30/11 at 05:49 PM ET
Comments (1)
via WGR-550,
WGR 550 has learned that Sabre Goalie Ryan Miller will be out for Wednesday night's game against the Rangers due to an unknown injury. Jhonas Enroth is likely to get the start at the H.S.B.C. Arena. Patrick Lalime would serve as the back-up if that is the case. Lalime is returning from a knee injury. Miller was the NHL's first star last week, going 3-and-0 with a pair of shutouts. He allowed 4 goals in Toronto on Tuesday night in a loss to the Maple Leafs.
Enroth has won his last 3 games between the pipes. He got wins against Ottawa on March 13th, Minnesota on March 6th and Montreal on February 15th.
We'll have full details on the story as they become available.
Miller is 33-22-8 this season with a 2.60 goals against average and a .915 save percentage.

Q: I was involved in a car accident last November I had several physio sessions and I thought I was all ok and ended sessions in February, in less than a month my shoulder and neck were playing up again. I continue to do exercises and I've had acupuncture in Ireland a few times when I visited there in April, this seemed to help. I was advised I would need possibly more intensive sessions Will accupunture help me?
A: You have the advantage over many of our 'ask the expert' correspondents insofar as you have already had acupuncture and it seemed to help. You've also had what we can't give but wish we could to, a face to face assessment of whether treatment would be beneficial in your own case. If, as seems to be the case, your practitioner thinks it would be worthwhile continuing, then this is the advice to follow.
Whether you return to your pre-accident state of health is another matter. It is true to say that shoulder and neck injuries are amongst the more difficult to treat because of the delicate balance of forces in the shoulder joint and the difficulty of repairing small tears in ligaments and tendons in a joint which is in relatively constant use. If you have been given a range of exercises by a physio, however, these will have been carefully designed to maximise your recovery, and together with the acupuncture treatment, there is a good chance you will recover most, if not all, of your previous function.
Accidents tend to have a much wider effect than the simple physical damage alone, and the paradigm of Chinese medicine in which body mind and emotions are seen as interconnected and interdependent can be particularly helpful in addressing some of the other consequences of an accident, like the shock itself. In Chinese medicine a major disruption in any part or level of the system can have repercussions across whole system, and we sometimes find this can impair someone's physical recovery. If your practitioner treats you rather than simply treating your symptoms, he or she will address all of these kinds of issue on looking at the overall picture.
We have just entered 'HA5' in the practitioner search function on our homepage and generated about twenty hits for people working in your area, so you should have no problem in locating a BAcC member to take over your treatment.
Q: Could you tell me if acupuncture can be used to help with chronic facial pain? The actual condition is known as 'post traumatic trigeminal neuropathy'.
We have produced a fact sheet on this question
although this is more restricted to problems with the tempero-mandibular joint that trigeminal neuropathy.
If you click on this link
you will also find a number of responses we have given to questions similar to yours.
There is also a factsheet on neuropathic pain
which offers a useful summary of the various studies of the use of acupuncture to treat trigeminal neuralgia.
If you look through these various responses, however, you will see much the same advice in each one. The evidence is encouraging but far from conclusive, although it would be fair to say that the gold standard of research in western medicine, the randomised double blind control trial is not the most appropriate tool for assessing traditional acupuncture. However, there are a number of treatment possibilities within the paradigm of Chinese medicine, to do with blockages or deficiencies in the flow of energy, or 'qi' as it is called, which a practitioner might be able to identify and correct. Your best bet here is to contact a BAcC member local to you and seek a brief face to face assessment of whether they think acupuncture may be of benefit.
We have to say, however, that trigeminal neuralgia or neuropathy does appear to be a rather intractable condition, and we are usually relatively cautious about the prognosis when we take on patients in whom this is their main complaint. You will note that in one or two replies we have suggested that cranial osteopathy may offer another treatment option. The pathway of the trigeminal nerve is easily compromised by some of the physical structures around the tempero-mandibular joint, and subtle manipulation may offer possibilities.
As to your last question, there is a very considerable difference between the theories of western and eastern acupuncture, although in practice the choice of points used for treatment may be very similar, although chosen for entirely different reasons. Western acupuncture is largely symptom driven, and the needles will almost always be inserted where the problem lies or close by. in some varieties points on the same dermatome, or area of influence of a nerve, may mean a slightly greater distance between needle and target, but the approach will usually be a neurophysiological one and involve blocking signals or boosting the body's pain control response. The traditional acupuncturist, by contrast, is looking at the symptom in its context in the whole body, and while this may well mean local treatment, it will also probably involve treatment elsewhere in recognition of the fact that symptoms generally arise against a backdrop of wider disharmony. For your problem, it may well be true that either will do, but there are conditions where we believe local treatment will probably fail where traditional treatment may not.
A: We are not quite sure from your question whether you are referring to a nasal drip or post-nasal drip, and also whether you have this an an allergic reaction or as a non-allergic condition. As a systematic review of treatment options for both allergic and non-allergic rhinitis demonstrates
a great deal more research has been undertaken into the allergic variety, and acupuncture tested more for this than for the non-allergic kind, where only one significant trial has been done. Our own BAcC factsheet offers a comprehensive summary of the allergic rhinitis tests.
However, while the evidence from trials on both conditions remains inconclusive but encouraging, the real strength of Chinese medicine lies in its entirely different paradigm or way of understanding the body, mind and emotions as an integreated whole. When someone has a symptom like a nasal drip, the symptom itself will only make sense in the wider context of the energy of the body, and could in this case be a functional disturbance in the mechanisms, from a Chinese medicine perspective, which control the flow and accumulation of fluids in the body, or a wider disturbance in the system as a whole which equated to what we might describe in modern terms as a weakness in the immune system. The skill of the practitioner lies in being able to make sense of the symptom in the context of the other diagnostic signs, and offering each patient a treatment programme unique to their own needs.
With not much to go on by way of context all that we can say is that we have treated people who have presented with this as a main symptom, so it does not fall into the category of 'not worth trying'. However, to get a sense of whether acupuncture will work for you, it would be best to contact a BAcC member local to you and seek a brief face to face consultation, hopefully without charge, in which they can offer you a better and more informed view of whether acupuncture treatment might be worthwhile for you.
A: We had a very strong temptation to say 'no', but a quick piece of internet research revealed a number of case studies such as this one
which may give some hope.
Our reasons for thinking that 'no' would be the best answer are rooted in our clinical experience that many people come to us having had polyps removed several times, and after each removal there is a short period of grace after which the polyps reform. To us this seems rather like harvesting an unwanted crop which will simply keep on growing.
From a Chinese medicine perspective polyps are seen either as a result of local blockages in the flow of energy, or 'qi' as it is called, or as one of a number of symptoms pointing to a systemic problem with specific Organs (capitalised to distinguish the concept of Organ in Chinese medicine from the slightly more limited understanding of organs in western medicine). In either case there is a possibility that treating the local blockage or tonifying the whole system may clear the accumulated fluids and make then less likely to recur. However, our clinical experience has not been that great, and we have often wondered how much the peristent attempts to deal with things by surgery has piled complication upon complication in trying to deal with the problem.
You could certainly not do any harm by visiting a BAcC member local to you and getting a more accurate face to face assessment of what might be possible than we can give here, but if you did decide to have treatment as a consequence, we would recommend clearly defined outcomes and frequent review periods to ensure that you do not get locked into a long sequence of treatment with little or no change being visible.
Q: I had accupuncture therapy for the first time due to stress and anxiety. i experienced strong vertigo type symptoms when the needle was inserted in my palm, please explain if this is normal and why it happened. Also, the feeling quickly subsided once the needle was removed.
A: While we would not go so far as to say that what you experienced was 'normal' it does lie within the range of possible reactions to treatment, and for a variety of reasons. People can react very differently to treatment. Some are very sensitive and can experience quite profound reactions, like dizziness or even feeling faint, and one quickly adjusts the strength of treatment given (less needles, less stimulation of the needles) to ensure that they do not get overwhelmed by the experience. Others show almost no reaction to having needles inserted, and are a puzzle to us because they should feel the tiny pinprick if nothing else.
Most people experience one of two common reactions, a short tingling sensation or a slightly longer lasting dull ache, which the Chinese call 'deqi'. The key thing is that both of these sensations tend to be short-lived, and if they do produce a manifest reaction like a headache or dizziness, this lasts at worst for only few hours. What you experienced, especially with the sensation going when the needles was removed, suggests that you are quite sensitive to treatment. It would be worth your while telling your practitioner in detail about what you experienced to make any adjustments necessary.
It is also important to bear in mind that acupuncture can be a very powerful therapy, and if the practitioner has been trying to clear blockages or reinstate a flow in putting your system back in order, this can often produce a 'surge' of energy which people experience as you did. This is a very positive sign.
We should mention in passing, however, a much more prosaic cause of odd reactioins to treatment is people not having eaten enough prior to the needles. This is one of the commonest causes of feeling faint during or after treatment.

Yes, you are coming off too hard and it is very easy to see why people are upset with not getting the 'classic 39'. It says right in the product description "(The Complete Restored Series)." That seems pretty clear to me.

Pumpkin Day
Tuesday, 26 August 2014
YUK! Whoever sent the rain clouds to England, I need your address so I can return to Sender!
Our lovely sunny days have gone walkabouts at the moment and as we are fast approaching September I'm wondering if they'll come back again this year, needless to say the days are gloomy and very very wet.
Thankfully I can go back in time on my blog to when the sun was shining and show you what I promised to in my last post and that is what to make with Tilda bunny scraps . . .
A patchwork cushion of course!
I used the good old English Paper Piercing for this project, can't remember the last time I did this method, funny how modern sewing machines have taken away all the old traditional methods but back in June (those were the hot days!) it was a pleasure sitting outside under the parasol, cutting out hexagons and using up scraps of fabric.
The finished cushion is only a small 12" x 12" but it still needed 42 hexagons to achieve the front, the back I just added a soft cream fabric and did the simple envelope finish.
And as the sun kept on shining it only seemed right that I make a second
one . . .
I chose one fat quarter of fabric for this one and cut as many hexagons out of it as I could that would have a motif on them, the rest are made up from fabric scraps again.
I'm really pleased with the outcome and what a great way to sew and soak up the sun at the same time!
It's been a frustrating couple of weeks for me recently and my personal vendetta with Mr. Sunshine is the reason for a lot of it.
Why? Well hopefully by my next post I care share the reason with you but until then . . .
I hope the sun is shining wherever you are
Thank you for stopping by

Hi everyone
Firstly I'm sending very big hugs and thankyous to my lovely blogging friends that left me such kind comments on my return to blogging land, they all really touched me and I am very grateful for your continued friendship xxx
So straight down to business . . . a new
passion for me . . .
The World of Tilda!
Tilda is the creation of Norwegian Tone Finnanger and she designs beautiful fabrics with which we can make her quirky angels, animals and home furnishings. I'm not sure why I've suddenly fallen in love with this brilliant designer, I bought one of her Angel Kits some 2 years ago and quickly sold it on feeling it was too ambitious for me but a few months ago DH took me to a wonderful fabric shop where they were selling, at a great discount, a lot of stock and I found 4 Tilda books, one for each season, and that was it ~ sold!
I've been naughty and have picked up fat quarters here and there . . .
so all I had to do was choose a project!
You didn't need too many guesses for that did you?
I have to say, wasn't too convinced at this stage and just couldn't envisage this ever looking like a bunny!
Ok, that's bit more like it, ears look strange but at least it's been 'bunnified'!
Now to the best bit ~ as all as girlies would say ~ clothes and make-up!
Red & white polka dot bloomers
Flowery pinafore dress and matching sun bonnet ~ that's better!
Pastel pink satin stitch nose, black bead eyes and my own lipstick for the blushed cheeks
Love it xxx
I'm so pleased with my first Tilda creation and it's given me so much confidence to tackle some of Tone's other designs, they are a little fiddly in places but with patience they are achievable. I didn't make it easy on myself and instead of using iron-on hemming tape decided to hand-stitch my hems instead and although the clothes should be stitched to the body I wanted mine to be removeable so they are!
Every bunny needs a new set of clothes now and again!
The weather has been gorgeous here in England, several weeks now of hot sunny weather and it's so lovely to be able to sit and sew again.
I'll show you in my next post what I did with the left over bits of this bunny fabric but until then take care everyone and thank you for stopping by.

It's been a long 6 months since my last post and I do apologize for my AWOL ~ life has been very cruel and horrible in that time and until now I have not had any blogging enthusiasm whatsoever!
I have started and restarted this post so many times and don't really know how to put into words how life has been turned upside down so to be short and sweet ~
I lost my precious mother-in-law to cancer in early March despite having been given the all clear after a double mastectomy 2 years previous ~ it all happened very quickly but we all feel her loss every day and it's very hard to accept and at the moment talk about x
I was already ill during this stressful time but ended up with a life-threatening illness 2 days after our loss for which I was hospitalised for 5 days and after being allowed home was taken back to hospital with a heart condition, I have struggled with these experiences and have had many dark days which I didn't feel was right to reveal on my blog.
That's all I'm going to share at the moment, I have titled this post 'A New Start' and that's what I intend to do ~ a
s my cricket loving DH would say I shall be 'half a century and not out' later in the year so I am concentrating on getting healthy again and looking forward!
I lost a good part of my eyesight whilst ill, which I was told would return, and as I've got better, it has but I found cross stitch very hard to do during that time so my fabric stash and sewing machine have been very hard at work instead!
I've so much to show over the next few posts but this is was my
first finish . . .
'Ollie Owl'
The pattern has been sitting in the cupboard for ages, I had looked at it several times but wasn't sure if I could do it but although a little fiddly in places it came together quite well and I'm pleased with the outcome.
The fabric choices were my own and I attached his wings with buttons so they could swivel round rather than stitch them on and added the little heart on his tummy x
It's not all bad news though in my life . . .
Remember our new addition to the family back in January?
Well, I'm pleased to say Monty has made a good recovery from his ordeals and now at 8 months old is the most loveable and affectionate bundle of fur ever!
He's my shadow and we do virtually everything together!
Talking of which, it's time for 'walkies' ~ exercise for me and lots of sniffs and saying hello to literally everyone we pass for Monty!
Thank you for stopping by and continuing to follow me, I really do appreciate it and hopefully normal service has once again resumed!
Take Care
Happy Stitching

Judge's Detroit Ruling Could Help Stockton Cut Pensions In Bankruptcy

STOCKTON (CBS13) — A judge's Detroit ruling has put untouchable pension payments in the bankrupt city of Stockton back in play.
The ruling says Detroit can cut pension payments to dig its way out of its bankruptcy debt.
Stockton City Councilwoman Kathy Miller says the city never tried cutting its police, fire and other public employee pensions, because the legal fight would be too risky.
"We had reached out to representatives from [the California Public Employees' Retirement System], they made it very clear that they would battle us legally," she said, "and that's a very expensive battle."
CalPERS, which managers more than 90 percent of California cities' employee pension plans is a financial giant, and will not give up its position easily, with investments valued at $270 billion.
It released a response to the bankruptcy case, reading in part, "The ruling is short-sighted."
But California pension reform advocates say Detroit's case will open the door to rolling back California pension obligations eventually.
"A federal bankruptcy judge said yeah they can be cut, they're just a creditor like any other creditor. And thats the key point," said political columnist Steve Greenhut.
"The fact is we still have cities that can't afford to pay their pensions for what they promised workers," said Marcia Fritz with the California Foundation for Fiscal Responsibility.

This week's travel inspiration comes courtesy of Outside magazine founder Tim Cahill. Over the past 33 years, International Expeditions has learned that some of the most enriching part of our small-group tours is the people our guests meet along the road – from our guides to the warm, welcoming locals who invite us into their homes and lives every week.

The diminutive Cuban pygmy owl lives exclusively on Cuba, but they make their homes in a variety of forest habitats across the Caribbean island. The IUCN Red List classifies this species as one of Least Concern, which means there is a healthy number of these endemic winged creatures living all over the island of Cuba. So there's a good chance you'll spot at least one of these tiny birds when you join IE's people-to-people Cuba tour.
Bill Robison, IE Director of Program Development, often has the "difficult" task of scouting a county for the best naturalist guides, hotels and to uncover extraordinary nature travel experiences for our guests.

While Havana is the major city on many travelers' minds when envisioning a trip to Cuba, the town of Trinidad on the southern side of the island offers an alternative to the hustle and bustle of the Cuban capital. Trinidad has been recognized as a UNESCO World Heritage Site, and those who travel to Cuba on International Expeditions' people-to-people spend two nights exploring.
There are only an estimated 10,000-25,000 blue whales believed to be still swimming the world's oceans, and lucky guests on International Expeditions Galapagos Islands cruise last week had a memorable encounter with these giant creatures. Blue whales are the largest known animals to have ever lived on Earth, so there was no doubt what they were seeing when guests observed this whale's huge spout.
If you're looking for the perfect adventure to expose your children to nature travel, Costa Rica should be at the top of your family travel bucket list. The combination of a short flight, comfortable resorts and ecolodges, adventure activities and rich biodiversity make Costa Rica an ideal first international trip for families. To test out the kid-friendly potential of this small country, one of the IE staff spent a week-long Costa Rica tour with her nine-year-old son.

TULSA, Okla. (CBS Houston) — Three men are accused of stapling a victim's lips shut during a robbery.
Tulsa World reports that 21-year-old Angel Rodriguez and 19-year-old Mario Mediano, along with another suspect, held four people at gunpoint, including a 2-year-old child, at a Tulsa apartment early Monday morning.
The suspects reportedly bound the residents with duct tape and demanded cash and money. Police say they ended up stealing phones, wallets, tablets and a purse.
They also allegedly stapled one of the victim's lips shut with a staple gun.
"After one of the suspects found the carpet staple gun in the victim's apartment (he) stapled his mouth one time with one staple," Tulsa Police Cpl. Brandon Disney told KRMG-TV.
The man was treated at the scene for his injuries.
Disney stated that Rodriguez and Mediano were later arrested at a local Whataburger and face possible charges of first-degree robbery, armed robbery and stolen vehicle complaints.
The third suspect currently remains at-large.

Jan 16, 2014When i first saw Nidhogg, my expectations were pretty high and I was pretty damn hyped. I was looking forward to a game with deep and extremely satisfying combat.
Unfortunately the reality was a lot less. The game has a relatively high price tag for an indie game overall, and there is nothing to get your money's worth in it. The combat is disappointingly simple and somewhat stiff, the graphics are run-of-the-mill pixel art, there are only four levels, the single player consists of playing each of them four times and takes about 30-40 minutes. The game in general has very little to offer for such a high price tag.
Give it a pass until it's in a bundle and then find a friend to play this with.… Expand
Jan 20, 2014Mediocre game. Not many things to note in favor... maybe the gameplay is ok and the retro touch is nice. It couldn't really keep me occupied for more that half an hour.
Apr 9, 2014Game is too simplistic. The mechanics could have been a lot better, the level are decent but they could have been a whole lot better. It gets very boring very quickly until you realize there's not much left in the game for you to do. Go from A to B as fast as you can. That's it. 1+ for the effort.
Feb 20, 2014Overpriced, Crap, Useless, Pointless, 2 minutes of gameplay, Nidhogg might be the most over-priced crap ive ever thrown money at. Its a waste of space on the steam store, and any other site, Atleast its fun. I will admit i enjoyed this. But for such little content, and for such a high cost, this game just doesnt hold up.
