ONE of the world's most iconic spectacle designers has unveiled a major exhibition at National Glass Centre featuring eyewear created by three generations of his family and photographic works of the famous faces who wore them.
Oliver Goldsmith travelled to Sunderland from his London base to officially launch the exhibition which features spectacle designs that have enthralled generations, charting the progression of the company over three generations of 'Oliver's', who steered the company into becoming one of the most successful British spectacle designers of the mid-20th century.
Oliver Goldsmith Ltd Spectacles and Sunglasses are synonymous with style and celebrity. Thanks to their innovative designs and dedication to quality, their frames became trend setters in the latter half of the 20th Century. Working with fashion houses like Dior and Givenchy, Oliver Goldsmith spectacles and sunglasses graced the faces of some of the most influential personalities to impact fashion trends of the day, from Princess Diana, Audrey Hepburn and Grace Kelly Princess of Monaco to Michael Caine and Peter Sellers.
Oliver said: "When I received the call to say National Glass Centre was interested in an exhibition of my glasses, I was more than happy to collaborate. I have an archive of over 600 designs, so I was over the moon to have them on display.
"We've worked towards this for almost two years and selected some of the most iconic designs for the exhibition, especially the ones I have created for famous people, and this is what of course will attract attention for visitors. But for me personally I am most pleased that this exhibition shows the history of our company from 1926 through to the present."
Awareness of the potential of spectacle frames as a fashion accessory, as opposed to a potentially embarrassing medical necessity, grew rapidly from the early 20th century. Buoyed by innovative new technology, improving manufacturing techniques, the introduction of the National Health Service here in Britain, and the craze of 'the celebrity', spectacles came to be considered as an increasingly accessible fashion must have.
As the popularity of spectacles grew the company Oliver Goldsmith Ltd. was established as a family run business designing and manufacturing spectacle frames. With innovative design and integrated high quality Oliver Goldsmith became a fashion leader working with Dior, Givenchy and British designer Teddy Tingling from the 1950s.
"When I arrived at National Glass Centre and saw this exhibition for the first time I was blown away", said Oliver. "I never thought anyone would do such a wonderful exhibition for me, and will certainly be boasting about it through social media.
"I hope visitors get a chance to see what my family's company has created over the years, and to feel that they can now go and choose glasses at the optician based on what they like, always choose the shape you like and feel comfortable wearing and look upon it as face jewellery for women and for men face furniture for men.
"My favourite designs were on Michael Caine, the Consul, which he wore for film The Ipcress File, and the Vice Consul which Peter Sellers wore outside of his film work."
Oliver added: "My father was the instigator of fashion eyewear after the Second World War. He wanted to market his designs and so he created way-out designs and took them to Vogue who couldn't wait to publish them, initially they sold in a limited number because they were quite way-out but when I began designing in the Swinging 60s my father had certainly become a fashion item."
Julia Stephenson, Head of Arts at National Glass Centre, said: "To create this exhibition, we wanted to look at that idea of chronology and how fashion design had moved forward, by looking at spectacle frames. We split the exhibition into groups of decades and also the three generations of the Goldsmith family, and we worked with an exhibition designer. We decided to separate the gallery using colour, which tries to grasps the atmosphere of the various decades, the colour changes as you walk around go round, as do the designs and really reflect the decades that they are from.
"I think people will be attracted to the show because of the names of the clients, they will enjoy it because everyone knows about spectacles, whether they are for helping your vision or for sunglasses, but I also hope they will go away having enjoyed the quality of design and the quality of production."

National Glass Centre
National Glass Centre at the University of Sunderland reopened its doors on 29 June 2013 following an ambitious £2.3m redevelopment programme.
The Centre is one of the UK's leading institutions for contemporary glass, celebrating Sunderland's unique glass-making heritage, presenting a rich temporary exhibition programme and facilitating international level research in new approaches to glass and ceramics.
To achieve this vision, National Glass Centre successfully attracted £750,000 from Arts Council England's Large Capital Programme, £250,000 from the Heritage Lottery Fund, £100,000 from the Sir James Knott Trust and £50,000 from the Foyle Foundation. This, coupled with a significant investment from the University of Sunderland, illustrates a significant commitment to the development of the arts in the City of Sunderland.
This investment has led to the doubling in size and extensive modernisation of the Centre's exhibition and learning studios, better meeting the needs of the visitor, schools and groups. The Centre's new main gallery now meets nationally recognised standards for environmental conditioning and security.
The redevelopment sees a complete overhaul of the Centre's exhibition spaces which will enable it to present work by the highest calibre artists and to work in partnership with international museums and galleries. The Centre will host three major exhibitions annually and up to 15 smaller scale exhibitions in the new gallery spaces. It will also have a 'rotating museum' which will present a selection of high profile glass and ceramics collections on a yearly basis.
National Glass Centre is Open Daily: 10.00 – 17.00

text: Garrus VS Valentines DayMass Effect~*~*~In which Garrus listens to Joker and tries to find the perfect Valentine's Day present for Shepard.~*~*~It was one of the stranger sights Garrus Vakarian had seen on the Citadel. Odd enough to make him stop in place and wonder if he should be in amazed, confused, or slightly intimidated. Probably all three at once, he decided at last.He had never seen so much pink in his life. Well, pink mixed with plenty of reds, whites, and the occasional smattering of purple. This was the third human shop he had seen with those decorations (although this was the gaudiest one to date),and if the crowds around it were any indication, he was going to have to admit that maybe Joker had actually been serious when he insisted that Valentines Day was one of the most important of human holidays.When the pilot had first mentioned Valentines Day to him, Garrus had been more than a little skeptical. It sounds exactly like the kind of joke the man would

I pity the fool who wagered on a send-off Sopranos landslide in their office Emmy pool. Although the HBO hit walked away with best-drama, writing and directing statuettes, Boston Legal barrister James Spader beat James Gandolfini for best actor, while Brothers & Sisters mom Sally Field won best actress over Edie Falco.On the lighter side, 30 Rock took best comedy, Ugly Betty star America Ferrera won best actress, and Extras mastermind Ricky Gervais was awarded best actor. (OK, Steve Carell actually took that last one, because Gervais wasn't there to collect it himself.)For a complete list of winners, click here. And if you missed a minute of the ceremony, click here, because I didn't, and I'm gonna have the nightmares about Ryan Seacrest dressed up like Jonathan Rhys Meyers to prove it.

9:50: Sally Field looks freakin' terrific. And she and winner Helen Mirren are wearing two of the nicer, more creative colors of the night. Unfortunately, Helen's dress looks a little like a safety harness. But at least a pretty-colored one!9:51: Helen is asking the conductor to Muzak her off. "I'm going on and on," she notes. But she's British, so it's charming.9:52: Lewis Black is sorta yelling at us now. He's like Gilbert Gottfried, only less greasy. But he's spot-on with his gripe: Enough with the teasers during a show for a show that will come on later! No wonder he's yelling. That stuff ticks me off, too.9:53: Oh dear.

I'm 200 percent against boob jobs, and Edelstein's a knockout, but as Britney recently taught us, packaging is everything.9:55: They run one of those annoying ads under Black as he is plugging Fox's fall schedule. They lost me there. The ad wasn't nearly as garish as the ones they normally run, and it only ...

Kyra Sedgwick in The Closer by Ben Kaller/TNT
This weeks crackling finale of TNT's The Closer was a splendid reminder of why Kyra Sedgwick is so deserving of the best-actress Emmy this year (yes, she'll be getting it for last season, but the character was just as strong a year ago). Being on basic cable, it's possible she'll once again by upstaged in what is one of the more crowded categories — her five other nominees include Sally Field (my second pick), Minnie Driver and past winners (in order of preference) Edie Falco, Mariska Hargitay and Patricia Arquette. But if for whatever reason she fails to score, this season's finale once again puts her at the top of my list for next year's competition.It was a great two-parter, with Brenda really on the ropes both professionally and personally. First, her case is in tatters after she fails to get a confession from her suspect. Then, midway through the high-profile trial, the defendants alibi turns up out of nowhere with rock-solid video evidence that he couldn...

First of all, loving you guys for writing in last week. The world is filled with blogs these days (hell, this site is filled with blogs), so for anyone to read mine, much less reply? Im feeling very Sally Field. Thanks for liking me!Now, about the 90210-Melrose situation that seems to have erupted. Like Chappy explained with NASA-powered GPS accuracy in the comments, the final two episodes of 90210s sophomore season introduced Grant Show as Melroses Jake Hanson, the dude who taught Drunky McKay "how to surf, ride a motorcycle
pick up girls." And having just finished the second season on DVD, that skill set obviously also included getting with Kelly Taylor, which is what Hanson tries while not building Jackie Taylor and Mel Silvers wedding pavilion and squinting through his carefully swept-back-but-floppy hair. "I should probably be arrested for thinking what Im thinking right now," he tells our favorite jailbait. Nothing says romance or spin...

There's no series finale written and producers and cast aren't yet ready to sign off for good but if, as many predict, ER's County General closes its doors at the end of its upcoming 14th season, the NBC drama wants to lure back as many of its cast as it can. Noah Wyle (Dr. John Carter), who's popped in and out of the show for a number of years, is returning for multiple episodes, and there will be no running around in Africa this time. "He'll be in Chicago in the ER, interacting with all our people," executive producer David Zabel tells TVGuide.com. The doc is back to check out the Joshua Carter Center, a gift from his big-bucks family, as well as for a medical concern. In turn, ER is hoping to bring back Thandie Newton, who plays Carter's wife Kem. Zabel says they've also talked to Gloria Reuben (as Jeannie Boulet) and Julianna Margulies (Carol Hathaway) about returns. "Julianna's doing a show now (midseason's Canterbury's Law), but we can always write a story that can shoot in a ...

Kyle Chandler, Friday Night Lights
Question: Well, it's that time again — time to rejoice and weep about the Emmy nominations. I was actually pleasantly surprised this year. After last year's debacle (it can't be called anything else), I wasn't expecting much. But this year, probably 75 to 80 percent of my wish list was granted, which, when it comes to Emmy nominations, is pretty good. Nothing's perfect, of course: In particular, I was disappointed that Lost wasn't nominated for best drama (but Boston Legal was? What?) and that Matthew Fox and Elizabeth Mitchell weren't recognized for their riveting performances. As a new convert to Friday Night Lights, I was also disappointed (but hardly surprised) to see that the show received no nominations at all. But there was good news to balance things out: I was particularly thrilled to see nominations for Ugly Betty, and for America Ferrera and Vanessa L. Williams. I also think they got it right in nominating Sally Field, Michael Emerson and Terry O'Quinn for their great weekly ...

Rainn Wilson, Neil Patrick Harris and Sally Field are among this year's Emmy nominees.
We know what you think about the nominees for this year's Primetime Emmy Awards, but what do the lucky nominees have to say about their good fortune? Some of your favorites reveal what went through their minds as the good news got out.
Doug Ellin, executive producer of Entourage (Outstanding Comedy Series nominee) "The New York Times called Entourage the best show in its first season. If for some reason [the voters] appreciate it more and we win this time, there's nothing we've consciously done to change it.... I spoke to Jeremy [Piven], who's in London doing a movie, and I'm playing golf with Kevin [Dillon] in about two hours. Jeremy is kind of our home-run hitter, I knew he was going to get nominated, and when Kevin and Martin Landau also got nominated, it was just great."

Question: I'm a 30-year-old woman who is beyond delighted to see representations of real women on TV this season. It's nice to look at Sally Field, both as an actress and her character on Brothers & Sisters, and not get the sense that life ends for women with marriage and kids. Mrs. Walker is a complex, intelligent character, as are the other women represented in the show. I recently discovered Alias on DVD and cannot say enough about Lena Olin, either. She's gorgeous and fierce, while not trying to be 25. I also love that these women don't look like they've been Botoxed within an inch of their life. I remember growing up watching Golden Girls and Designing Women with my mom. I know lots of young women who still find these reruns delightfully funny. It seems like that genre has been missing from TV in the last few years. What do you think the odds are that we'll see more of these characters or women-focused shows in the future? Do you think TV execs will ever get comfortable with women ...

Question: What are your thoughts on the Brothers & Sisters finale? I thought it was a perfectly understated finale with no big cliff-hanger, but plenty of plot twists to chew on over the summer. It was refreshing to not have a cliff-hanger just for the sake of suspense. What a great series this has become since its rocky start (something you highlighted in a recent column). If Sally Field is not nominated for an Emmy, I will be very disappointed. What a perfect matriarch for this crazy bunch. Can't wait until next season!
Answer: After the Grey's finale, not to mention the capper to a dreary season of Desperate Housewives, the Brothers finale came as a relief. I was touched, I was amused, I was entertained — although I did think the depiction of the senator's family went too over-the-top; in what world are Rob Lowe and Garry Marshall from the same extended family? Over the season, this evolved into one of my favorite shows. Like Grey's in previous seasons (when it aired on Sundays) ...

Okay I have to admit I've been pretty negative lately about my weight loss. It's not going as fast as it should be (and it's not). But... we have been eating fairly cleanly for over 30 days now and it seems routine. We were cutting veggies and fruit last night to put in bowls for the week to just grab and go for the daily lunch. Weighed out my 1 oz of nuts and put in the bags. Yes, according to calculations, I should have lost almost 9 pounds and I've lost only 6 (there are 10,000 missing calories in there somewhere), but I'm sure it will find a way to disappear. The compliment last week of looking like someone who worked out helped. Finally my husband states that it is showing. I just have to have patience with me and with my body. It has been out of commission and in pain for a long time. I'm still in pain so I think sometimes it's not worth the pain when I don't see results, but I know in the long run getting the weight off my body will work wonders for my knees and back.
Well, the weekend was definitely interesting. I seemed to be angry or depressed the whole time. I did work out on Sunday. Saturday spent the day going from store to store getting the best deal on produce so we could cut up our veggies for our lunches this week. Scale hasn't budged much. I still see total flab where I used to have muscle. Measured this week, lost again somewhere where I didn't need to lose, my chest. Come on already, I barely have one, don't take it away too. So my calves and chest are where I'm losing any inches, when I need to lose feet off my thighs.. okay I exaggerate a little. I'm a member of emotional eaters, but I need emotional drinkers because my sugary Pepsi and I are going to be friends again if this doesn't start changing.
But, let me regroup... things started to deteriorate on Friday when I truly let my emotions get a hold of me. My husband's EX decided to keep me waiting to pick up his daughter and I just got so frustrated with her because I know it was intentional. Anyway, we went to Chick Filet before his game and I devoured an eight piece nugget. First fried food I had had in a month. Went to check the calorie count and found it wasn't THAT bad, I still stayed within my BMR rate for the day, not my losing count for the day. As far as calorie count, Saturday and Sunday were low, but unfortunately I only ate one meal each day. Had a few nut snacks, but that's it. I made my first set of baby back ribs, hey I needed a little cheat. So the whole weekend was a cheat.. actually not, Sunday hubby made a nice curry chicken that came out of one of our fitness magazines. It was pretty darn good.
and woo hoo payday. Time to go get some good foods. Not much going on in the weight and fitness life. Got over my struggle from yesterday. Figured it was part soreness from the previous leg workout and just general calorie deprivation from the day before because I was a little low. Plan on doing lots of cardio this weekend and my back workout today. YAY!!
Ya know, I'm excited today for some reason. I think I see changes myself in my body, so I have to be patient. My butt is lifting. I don't feel frumpy dumpy looking any more. I know it's not a 20 year old body, but it's getting much better for a closer to 50 than 40 year old body.
Well I had a little breakdown last night, drank a couple too many beers, oh the liquid calories. I still didn't go over my calorie count, crazily enough. I did play some sand volleyball, which was quite entertaining since I'm not in shape right now..... BUTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTTT I did get a little lift. One of the girls I was playing with asked me if I worked out. She said I had the build of a body builder. Ohhhhhh I just fell in love with her. Thank you thank you thank you for someone seeing my work. So, I'm back on track. I feel better that maybe things are showing up and I and the people around me aren't seeing the changes because everybody sees me every day. Today is cardio day and I am hitting the treadmill instead of the elliptical to see if my theory on foot movement alleviates my foot pain. Onward, forward, march... to my 150 goal. Oh I haven't seen that since my baby was 2... she'll be 20 this year.
Well it's a new day. I'm a little late on my monthly visitor and I wake up a little hormonal and nauseous. noooooo, I'm too old for that. Hopefully it's just the body dealing with the new workout, eating and me of course stressing about money all the time. I have a leg workout today which will test the knee again. So far it's doing great. I bowled last night and it was a little sore, but iced it and took some Advil and went to sleep. Well, off to the gym, forgot my preworkout drink so have to do this all on my own muscles... hehehe, I hope I can find them.

Twistys, a predominantly softcore site known the World Wide Web over for its stunningly beautiful imagery and hot-as-fuck adult models, now takes on lesbian sex in a site it suggestively calls When Girls Play. With weekly updates to its growing archive, steamy sex both indoors and out, and the hottest ladies in girl-on-girl porn, When Girls Play looks as solid as they come. It isn't yet big enough, though, to sustain the rabid fanboys it will no doubt attract, an issue that, like a broken heart, can only be mended by time (or lots of drinking).
Everyone (or almost everyone) masturbates, so what's the big fucking deal? It won't send you blind and it won't grow hair on your palms. What it will do, however, is put you in more intimate conversation with your true sexuality. For the young women featured on Mofos' self-pleasuring website, She's a Freak, masturbation brought out their most adventurous and outlandish desires. Showing everything from in-shower clit-rubbing to bottle-fucking, anal self-fisting, and even some hardcore sapphic sex, She's a Freak proves that men aren't the only total deviants out there.
Gathering twenty of porn's most delectable women (and two well-endowed gentlemen) into one all-sucking, all-fucking adult network, Pornstar Platinum offers up an irresistible offer: witness these mavens of masturbatory delights romp through a collective catalog of a few hundred sexual partners, often their network neighbors, and often in High Definition video format that'll astound you with their clarity and dynamism. Pornstar Platinum isn't a flawless network - in fact, it has more than a few issues needing attention - but it sure as hell doesn't mess around when it comes to showcasing its stars, hardcore-style.
Imagine finally relenting and telling your tight bro that although, yes, his new girlfriend does indeed have enticing dick-sucking lips, it's his mother who gives better head! He'd kick the crap out of you and promptly remove you from the Fantasy Football league you co-founded. Instead of risking such a valuable friendship over a blowjob (even a great one), why not live vicariously through Mommy Blows Best, a My XXX Pass site that aims to prove an experienced oral lover beats a slutty harlot of a twenty-something party girl every single time.
Geared towards those for whom two or three or even four adult performers is nowhere near enough, Drunk Sex Orgy thrusts dozens of horny women and men into a party scene so wild and outrageous you'll start questioning the sanity of said participants along with your own for finding it all so damn exciting. Face facts, bro-ski, when it comes to wild partying with a gang of naked women and men enjoying themselves in the most decadent, debacuherous fashion known to man, Drunk Sex Orgy is, as they say, the shiznit.
Short of pulling out your, uh, camera and snapping photos of every gorgeous woman you see as your roam the streets, malls, post offices of wherever it is you happen to live, you're not going to build a collection of photographs of beautiful everyday women anytime soon. Better to hand it over to FigureBaby. Hosting nearly 500 exclusive photo galleries by Tony Mancini, FigureBaby proves that any beautiful woman looks even better without clothing.
Those of you who have been fortunate (or possibly unfortunate) enough to work underneath a female employer prone to power tripping in pantsuits will know that being on the receiving end of some pent-up sexual frustration can be extremely arousing. Big Tits Boss offers well over 100 scenes that present bustacious pornstars demanding the attention of whatever stiff dick walks their way. All hardcore, all the time, Big Tits Boss is the workplace equivalent of indulging in raw sex with a dominant woman. That is to say it's exhilarating!
Do you really know what happens when your girlfriend catches up for cosmos with her "besties"? Take one look at Party Hardcore and you'll never again be comfortable with her dressing up and heading off for a "girls' night out" - that's how wild this insanely overpopulated group sex site is! Guys start stripping as entertainment but end up doing much, much more as the women drink, dance, and lose their fucking minds in a literal orgy of immense proportions. The ladies of Party Hardcore dance naked, grope each other, head for a snack "downtown", and both suck and fuck any available dick without hesitation. I don't care if she says they're only going to Chevy's for some 'ritas; Party Hardcore proves that a girls night out isn't always as innocent as you might assume.

Melanoma Monday is a day dedicated to reminding Americans that as the weather warms up and layers are shed to protect the skin from the sun's damaging UV rays. NY1's Erin Billups filed the following report.
Like many people raised on Long Island, Melanie Heider spent her summers on the beach.
"You're there all day, you pack lunch and it's just every Saturday, Sunday," says Heider.
Heider says she always applied sunscreen. Which is why she was surprised when she discovered a funny looking mole on her leg, after reading a magazine article that suggested she do a skin check.
"The fact that it grew and changed colors was always something that was odd to me. It got just lighter and then it started bubbling up," recalls Heider.
Mount Sinai Dermatologic and Cosmetic Surgery Chief Dr. Hooman Khorasani eventually removed what turned out to be a melanoma - the most serious form of skin cancer. He urges everyone to know the A, B, C, D, and Es of melanoma.
"About 50 percent of the melanomas come from pre-existing moles and a large majority of melanomas are diagnosed by patients themselves," says Dr. Khorasani.
A stands for asymmetry. If you draw an imaginary line through the mole both sides should match. B is for border, which should be smooth and not jagged. C is to look to see if the color of your mole seems to be changing like Heider's did. D is the diameter of the mole, which should be no larger than a pencil eraser. And finally, E, or any evolution in size, shape, itching or bleeding. Those are also signs you should have a professional take a closer look.
"We have an epidemic of melanoma. There's about one in 52 Americans that were diagnosed in 2012, of invasive melanoma," says Dr. Khorasani.
But melanomas can happen to almost anyone, regardless of race. Dr. Khorasani says you can protect yourself by wearing hats and sunglasses, avoid running outside between 10 a.m. and 2:30 p.m. when the UV index is highest. Kids should wear full body suits at the beach and sunscreen should be applied every 40 minutes, 20 if you're in the water.
"The frequency that they apply is more important than actually the SPF," adds Dr. Khorasani.
Heider now has a scar where the cancer used to be, but it could have been worse if she was less proactive. Still, it's not keeping her from the beach.
"Lots of sunscreen though," she says.

DIY Quilt Patterns: Tips for Writing Your Own
Have you noticed that self-published sewing and quilting patterns are popping up everywhere? If you have the drive to design and publish your own DIY quilt patterns, it's possible to get started with just a few basic tools.
Many quilters get started publishing their own patterns with simple tools, such as a camera and a sketch pad. As you grow in your design process, whether through free form quilting design, modern quilt design or more traditional methods, you may wish to upgrade to digital design software and even develop your own brand of PDF or printed quilting patterns.
Here are some tips for writing your own quilt patterns
Pictured: Diamond Affair, Pachyderm Procession, Scary Squares and Cathedral Squares PDF quilt patterns on Craftsy.
Study other patterns
A good first step in designing quilt patterns is to do your research. Read plenty of quilt patterns and make a list of what information is included, such as fabric requirements, cutting supplies and finished project sizes.
When reading a pattern, as yourself:
- Do you prefer quilt patterns with or without templates?
- Is it easier for you to follow a tutorial with step-by-step photos or digital sketches?
- Does the pattern speak to beginning quilters with explanations of basic steps? Or is it assumed that the creator will go in with a working knowledge of 1/4" seams and finishing the quilt?
- Would the pattern benefit from alternate layouts? Is there an easier way to construct the blocks than the method suggested?
Photo via That Girl… That Quilt
Sketch your ideas
Once you've studied several quilt patterns and determined what you like, it's time to collect your own ideas and get them out on paper. Jennifer of That Girl… That Quilt says she carries a notebook with her all the time to sketch out ideas. She also uses a camera (a phone camera works great) to snap photos of objects that inspire her. You never know how something in nature or even the tile work in a restaurant will inspire your next DIY quilt pattern.
In her pattern design series, Jennifer shares how she turns that initial spark of an idea into a written pattern.
Digitize your design
Rebecca shares a guest post on Sew, Mama, Sew about her quilt design process, which starts with a look at the fabric and how to best show off the prints. Rebecca starts by sketching on scrap paper, and then transfers her idea to graph paper. Once she's happy with the quilt design, she'll draw it up on a CAD drawing program to make a quilt assembly diagram.
If you'd like to learn how to digitize your quilt patterns, there are several options available, like Electric Quilt or Quilt-Pro software, Adobe Illustrator, or the Threadbias Quilt Design Tool. The DIY quilt pattern can then be shared via a PDF or printed on paper, whatever you choose!
Editing your work
If you've been designing your own quilt patterns for a bit, it might be time to fine tune your process. This may involve asking other quilters to test the pattern for you and give you feedback.
Karen Gass, an author and editor with years of experience writing quilt patterns, shares her tips for DIY quilt patterns in her How to Write Quilt Patterns e-book, available in the Craftsy Pattern Store. Grab some paper, file folders and a camera, and Karen will teach you how to write accurate and easy-to-understand quilt patterns.
Have you ever written your own quilt patterns? What tips do you have for others who are just getting started?

Thank you for printing this article! I've been looking for practical instructions for e-pattern making and this helps a lot. I am hoping that someone can direct me to parts 3 and possibly 4 of Jennifer's pattern design series, but I can't find them anywhere. Would love to read them if available.
How do you know if what you designed has already been designed and put out there? I feel like I have great ideas, but I also feel that maybe it has been done before. Thanks!
I have a couple quilt patterns and use Electric Quilt for my pattern designs and layout. I also use a lot of photos to illustrate different techniques. You can see my patterns on Craftsy or at my website. Thanks for nice article. Jane @ RickRackandPolkaDots.com
I have drawn a pattern block of a quilt my grandmother started and was wondering if you could find the name of the quilt. I really want to finish it and I am asking for your help. I want to attach it but don't know how.

As the Charlotte 49ers prepare to leave the Atlantic 10 for Conference USA next fall, the men's and women's track and field teams are looking for an exit that matches their entrance into the A-10 seven years ago.In their first year in the A-10, both teams swept the conference's indoor and outdoor championships. Should the 49ers capture both titles at the outdoor meet on May 4-5, which Charlotte is hosting, both teams will have swept the seasons' titles once more.Charlotte swept the A-10 indoor championships on Feb. 16-17 at Newport, R.I., giving it 22 indoor and outdoor titles in its eight years in the conference."I take a lot of pride in it," said Trey McRae, a junior high-jumper. "We practice a lot. It takes a lot of hours. We do this while maintaining our grades in school and being a part of other organizations. I take a lot of pride in how we compete on the field and how we have won championships the last few years."The official start to the outdoor season is March 14-16, when Charlotte hosts the annual 49er Classic meet at the Irwin Belk Track and Field Center.Robert Olesen has been the track and field coach at Charlotte since 2002. That span included Charlotte's first stint in C-USA, which lasted from 1995 to 2005."The Atlantic 10 has been good for us," Olesen said. "I'm not sure the other teams would agree. We were at our last conference indoor meet and I had some nice conversations with some of the other coaches."They're going to miss us, and I don't know if they are saying that just to be nice. But I think there was some sincerity to their comments. I just think we brought a lot to the conference as far as competitiveness and raising the bar. It upped their game too."Olesen noted that when Charlotte entered the A-10 in 2005, its presence upset the balance of power in track and field. Rhode Island had dominated the conference for several years before Charlotte entered, including men's and women's sweeps of the indoor and outdoor titles in 2004 and 2005.As the 49ers took control, Rhode Island became their biggest rival. On the men's side, when Charlotte wasn't winning conference titles, it was finishing second to Rhode Island. The Rams captured indoor championships in 2007, 2011 and 2012 and outdoor titles in 2007, 2008 and 2011.Among the women, Dayton's team that has been the biggest threat to Charlotte's success over the years. The Flyers won an indoor title in 2011 and shared the 2010 championship with the 49ers. Temple is the only other women's team to win an A-10 title since 2006, taking the outdoor meet in 2010.It's difficult to predict how well Charlotte will fare in C-USA. Four teams are leaving after this season, and eight teams, including Charlotte, are joining.Houston's men have won six of the past seven indoor meets and the last four outdoor championships. Central Florida's women won last month's indoor title and have captured the last three outdoor meets. But both schools are leaving C-USA after this season.During the 49ers' previous stint in C-USA, the men's team won the indoor championship in 2001. The women were second in 2005, and Olesen believes the team was on the verge of a championship, had it not moved to the Atlantic 10.The A-10 and C-USA conference meets are organized differently. For example, the A-10 allows each school to enter only three athletes in any event. C-USA has no such restrictions.Olesen plans to spend part of the summer analyzing how his athletes compare to those whose schools will be C-USA members next year. The study may change his perspective about which events need added depth on his teams.Olesen is not the only one looking ahead. Freshman hurdler Alvonna Blakney has found herself peeking at the C-USA performance lists."I've looked at the stats for Conference USA, and I'm like, 'That's some good competition'," Blakney said. "I feel it's better competition, but some teams are leaving and some are coming in. So what I looked at doesn't even matter."

Cougar Town Review: "Stop Dragging My Heart Around"by Eric Hochberger at . Comments
Now that Cougar Town has seemingly become less and less about cougars and more of an ensemble comedy, the show has been exploring the unique relationships between the different characters. We're just going to go over the various story lines from "Stop Dragging My Heart Around" and discuss what worked and didn't.
Travis and Kylie's first time. While we could care less about their relationship, it did lead to a funny moment when Travis and Jules both got home in the morning disheveled; and when both parents attempted to parent him later.
Bobby and Jules. What!? If it weren't for the massive Cougar Town spoilers, that could have been our reaction. While we love the goofy, mullet-rocking Bobby, we understand that no serious woman could feel the same way, especially not Jules. It was funny to see a clingy Bobby just show up with his boat outside Jules' house and it was good to see Jules finally put the guy out of his misery at the end. Let's hope this pairing never happens again, but we're sure it will.
Grayson and Laurie hooking up. For a second when we met up with Laurie we almost felt like we were watching a semi-intelligent girl, only to quickly see it subdued by her craziness and ditziness. However, most-changed character goes Grayson for showing a jealous side after Bobby tells him he hooked up with Jules. Not a fan of this pairing, the concept of "somedays" and only enjoyed that it led to a random interaction by Andy.
Andy and Ellie. The one "stable" relationship of the show would be boring to watch if it weren't for the fantastic Andy. Ellie was given the sappy voiceover at the end of this episode, and its cheesiness would have ruined the episode, if it not saved by Andy asking if he was gonna get some after her boring speech.
Bill Lawrence and Kevin Biegel have successfully created an above average sitcom and we have no problem tuning into each week. We find ourselves drawn to these characters and their various relationships, despite the fact it's not exploring anything new.
I guess as fans of Two and a Half Men, we've set ourselves up for a lifetime of mediocrity. Now for our favorite Cougar Town quotes after the jump.
Laurie: I have to admit last was pretty okay
Grayson: That's weird, during it you were vocal how good it was.
Laurie: Yeah, that's because it's not sex to moan, "oh this is okay." | permalink
Laurie: What we did was totally natural like the wind... or not trusting Canadians. | permalink
Bobby: I'm going through stuff too. They're repaving the parking lot where I keep my boat so I'm going to have to move. It's time like this I wish I had my own parking lot.
Jules: Really? That's what you wish for? | permalink
Jules: Drinking out of a third place trophy makes you feel like a winner. | permalink
Eric Hochberger is the programmer of TV Fanatic, so please forgive his mediocre writing. His programming is far better. Follow him on Twitter and/or email him. Just don't request threaded comments. They're coming.Tags: Cougar Town, Reviews
@LizzyB and @Julien Maybe mediocre is a little harsh. I just had very high expectations for this show given its creator was Bill Lawrence (who also created one of my favorite shows, Scrubs) and starred Courteney Cox. I really do think the show is improving and I say it each week in my reviews. I hope you'll stick with us and please, pop in the comments and give your opinions each week! Not a lot of sites cover this show and I think other people want to hear your positive reviews! P.S. I apologize for the mistakes. I am actually the programmer on this site and pop in to cover shows as a fan when no one else on the staff watches the show. As our staff continues to grow, you'll see a lot less of me, and a lot more of our talented writers. :)
I agree with Julien that the show's much better than mediocre. You're entitled to your opinion Barnacle but I thought this site was called TV "fan"atic for a reason..that it's for actual fans of the shows on here. At the very least, you could proofread your posts before submitting; there are a lot of mistakes.
@Julien. While I appreciate your criticism about my review, let me know what you think makes this show unique versus previous and current sitcoms. Oh and find me any other critic that's been as friendly and forgiving towards this show as me.
mediocre?seriously? I can't think of anything that's mediocre about this show, except this review

Legacy Reserves LP's CEO Discusses Q4 2011 Results - Earnings Call Transcript
Legacy Reserves LP is an independent oil and natural gas limited partnership headquartered in Midland, Texas focused on the acquisition and development of long-lived oil and natural gas properties, primarily located in the Permian Basin, Mid-Continent and Rocky Mountain regions of the United States.
I will now turn the call over to Cary Brown, Legacy's Chairman, Chief Executive Officer, and Co-Founder.
Cary Brown – Chairman and Chief Executive Officer
Thanks, Steve and thank you to our friends and unit holders joining us today. After an outstanding 2010, Legacy continued its strong growth in 2011 as we set new records for production, adjusted EBITDA, and proved reserves. We increased our annual production by 36% to an average of over 13,000 barrel oil equivalents per day. We increased our adjusted EBITDA by 44% to over $200 million and we grew our proved reserves by 20% to 63.4 million barrels through our robust acquisition program and a record $71.6 million of development capital expenditure.After closing our $100 million Permian Basin acquisition at the end of 2010, we closed 28 transactions during 2011, including $136 million of producing properties, another $5.5 million of undeveloped acreage in the Permian. While approximately 96% of our 2011 acquisitions were in the Permian, we continue to evaluate and expect to close accretive acquisitions in all of our core areas. Due to our strong results, we increased our distribution every quarter during 2011 resulting in distribution growth of 4.8% since the fourth quarter of 2010. We are pleased to report that during the fourth quarter even after deducting $19.5 million of development capital expenditures and additional $1.9 million of G&A related to the termination of the potential acquisition in Wyoming, we still generated approximately $29.4 million or $0.64 per unit of distributable cash flow with coverage of 1.16 times or $0.55 distribution.

In the month of November you might notice more men walking around sporting mustaches. No, there isn't going to be a shortage of razors and shaving cream! Many of these men are taking part in a campaign called Movember. Movember started over 10 years ago in Australia as a way to raise awareness about men's health. In the past few years the mustache movement has made its way across the world and has become an international campain that has raised $559 million and funded over 800 programs in 21 countries.
But hey, grown men aren't the only ones allowed to have fun with Movember! Children can participate too by checking out these great books centered around, you got it, MUSTACHES!
Mo's Mustache by Ben Clanton
Monster Mo's big, beautiful mustache inspires all of his friends to copy his style by growing fabulous mustaches of their own, leaving Mo to wonder how he will continue to distinguish himself.
Mustache Baby by Bridget Heos
When Baby Billy is born with a mustache, his family takes it in stride. They are reassured when he nobly saves the day in imaginary-play sessions as a cowboy or cop and his mustache looks good-guy great. But as time passes, their worst fears are confirmed when little Billy's mustache starts to curl up at the ends in a suspiciously villainous fashion. Sure enough, "Billy's disreputable mustache led him into a life of dreadful crime."
Mustache by Mac Barnett
When extremely good-looking King Duncan builds more and more tributes to his handsome face, neglecting kingdom projects and repairs, his loyal subjects find a mustachioed solution.
Big Bushy Mustache by Gary Soto
In order to look more like his father, Ricky borrows a mustache from a school costume, but when he loses it on the way home his father comes up with a replacement.
A human dressed up as "Violin Monster" will be at Literati bookstore at 7pm Thursday Oct. 30, the evening before Halloween. Literati is located at 124 E. Washington in downtown Ann Arbor. From their web page: "Violin Monster will play some music, read some stories, share some of his spookiest, scariest memories... and he may even need some help from the audience remembering them! Join us for this fun, spooky event for all ages. AAAAWWWOOOOO!!!!!!!!!!!!" At the library we have lots of books for young people about Halloween.
Once Upon an Alphabet is the brand new book by popular children's author Oliver Jeffers. He's famous for illustrating last year's The Day the Crayons Quit, and for writing and illustrating The Hueys books, and The Heart and the Bottle, as well as many other kids' books written and illustrated in his signature style.
Once Upon an Alphabet is particularly special because it offers up a short story for each letter… and all these stories feature interconnected characters and situations throughout the book. The letter A tells the tale of an astronaut who's afraid of heights, B is a bridge burned between friends, and C is the story of a cup longing to escape its cupboard of captivity. Jeffers' gorgeous illustrations and use of color turn Once Upon an Alphabet into a whimsical art book as well as a literary learning experience!
The School Library Journal calls Once Upon an Alphabet "an altogether stimulating, surprising and satisfying reading experience." Don't miss it!
Want to learn more about history, issues, and personal stories relating to the LGBTQ community? You're in luck, because AADL just got in a bundle of new (and new to us) books on these topics!
For amazing vintage photographs of LGBTQ folks, check out the beautiful new book The Invisibles: Vintage Portraits of Love and Pride. Each photograph, which range in date from 1900 to 1960, tells a beautiful and intriguing story. Taken as a whole, these lovely portraits illuminate a part of history that is frequently glossed over. If the photographs make you wish you knew more about early American gay couples, take a look at Charity and Sylvia: A Same-Sex Marriage in Early America, which details the lives of two women who built a life together in the early 1800s.
If you're interested in a primer on LGBTQ issues and facts, you will want to check out both "You Can Tell Just By Looking": And 20 Other Myths about LGBT Life and People and Transgender 101: A Simple Guide to a Complex Issue. For a more indepth look at these topics, try Against Equality: Queer Revolution, Not Mere Inclusion and Gender Outlaws : The Next Generation.
The titles above are just a sample of the books we've gotten in! For a complete list, look here: New LGBTQ Books
Ms. Rachel helped hear things that begin with "H" ... as in ...
The HUNGRY THING who was looking for hookies, feetloaf and gollipops.
We looked for "Who Stole The Cookies From The Cookie Jar?" Who? Who? We don't know Who?
Note: ... it was Mouse, and you KNOW what happens when YOU GIVE A MOUSE A COOKIE!
Here is a recorded version of "Who Stole The Cookies" in BROWN GIRL IN The RING
If you want more stories to go with "H" ... here are some:
HUMBUG WITCH by Lorna Balian ... a non-scary Halloween story.
HAPPY by Mies Van Hout
BUT NOT THE HIPPOPOTAMUS by Sandra Boynton
MY HUMONGOUS HAMSTER by Lorna Freytag

Did you know that Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers came out with their 13th studio album just a couple of months ago? Titled Hypnotic Eye, the album debuted at number one on the Billboard 200. You may have heard some of the singles from the album on the radio over the past couple of months; "American Dream Plan B," "Red River," and "U Get Me High" have all had their share of time on the airwaves. Hypnotic Eye shows that age has far from deterred Tom Petty and his crew from making great music. The AADL just added the album to our collection, and you can join the hold list of eager fans waiting to give it a listen!
Of course, Hypnotic Eye isn't the extent of our Tom Petty collection. We have nearly all of the other Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers albums, including 1994's Wildflowers, 1979's Damn the Torpedoes, 2006's Highway Companion, and their 1993 Greatest Hits album. Interested in learning some Tom Petty music of your own? We have the sheet music and lyrics for his entire solo album, Full Moon Fever.
We also have the fascinating movie Runnin' Down a Dream, which follows Tom Petty and the Heartbreakers from their early beginnings in Gainesville through their 30th anniversary celebration. The DVD features lots of amazing footage and information from over three decades of the experiences of this wonderful band.
Legendary editor Bill Bradlee, who took over the Washington Post in 1965 and served as its executive editor during the Watergate Era, died yesterday of natural causes. Best remembered by many of us in the guise of a wily Jason Robards in All the President's Men, Bradlee was known for his leadership style: recruiting talent and encouraging aggressive investigative journalism. We have a few books by and about Bradlee, including 2012's Yours in Truth: A Personal Portrait of Ben Bradlee, and his work is featured in Katherine Graham's Washington.
Librarian (Louisiana) Ashley Weaver's stylish and charming debut Murder at the Brightwell features "a spunky heroine, a tense romance and red herrings galore" that would bring to mind Agatha Christie who created some of the most endearing and enduring amateur sleuths.
1932 England. Young Amory Ames, on impulse, accepts an invitation from her former fiance Gil Trent to vacation at the Brightwell, a luxurious seaside resort catering to the society set. The express purpose is for Amory to intervene in the forthcoming marriage of Gil's sister Emmeline to Rupert Howe, a disreputable ladies' man. No one sees the sharp prick of the irony more then Amory whose floundering marriage to the notoriously charming playboy Milo is a constant source of sorrow.
But when Rupert is found murdered and Gil is arrested for the crime, Amory must set aside their marital ennui, and reluctantly enlists Milo's help in finding the killer and clearing Trent's name. Soon, the pair's sleuthing puts them at the scene of a second murder, and in harm's way.
"A pleasant debut novel, nicely evoking the 1930s with strong atmosphere and the beginnings of some intriguing characters."
Readers eagerly anticipating a follow-up might want to get cozy with Dashiell Hammett's Nick and Nora Charles of The Thin Man series (and the 1934 film adaptation that is now a classic); the Australian Miss Phryne Fisher series by Kerry Greenwood (adapted into an exquisitely-costumed period television series); and the Dandy Gilver series by Catriona McPherson, set in Scotland.
Join us Sunday, October 26 from 2-3pm downtown for a visit from local author Johnathan Rand! Rand is the author of the popular children's chapter book series Michigan Chillers and American Chillers, with titles such as Poltergeists Of Petoskey, Dinosaurs Destroy Detroit and Great Lakes Ghost Ship.
He will talk about how he became a writer and how reading and writing are necessary in life. Books will be will for sale and he'll be signing books after the event! Come give him a high five and ask him why he writes the books he does.
If you head up north, I recommend a visit to Chillermania! in Indian River. It's the world headquarters for Rand's books and a spookyish book store chock full of Rand's books! It's a feast for the eyes. I walked in this past spring and had a ton of fun.
