Scraping the grill grate clean will help prevent the salmon from sticking. Also be sure to oil the grate just before placing the fillets on the grill.
- 1/3 cup soy sauce
- 1/3 cup maple syrup
- 4 salmon fillets (about 8 ounces each), each about 1 1/2 inches at thickest part
- Ground black pepper
- Vegetable oil, for grill grate
- Lemon wedges, for serving
- For the Maple-Soy Glaze:
- 2 tablespoons soy sauce
- 1/4 cup maple syrup
Stir together the soy sauce and maple syrup in a small saucepan; bring to a simmer over medium-high heat and cook until slightly thickened, 3 to 4 minutes. Measure 2 tablespoons glaze into a small bowl and set aside.
Whisk the soy sauce and maple syrup in a
13 by 9-inch baking dish until combined; carefully place the fillets flesh-side down in a single layer in the marinade (do not coat the salmon skin with the marinade). Refrigerate while preparing the grill.
Using a chimney starter, ignite about 6 quarts
(1 large chimney, or 2 1/2 pounds) charcoal briquettes and burn until covered with a layer of light gray ash, about 15 minutes. Empty the coals into the grill; build a two-level fire by stacking two-thirds of the coals in one half of the grill and arranging the remaining coals in a single layer in the other half. Position the grill grate over the coals, cover the grill and heat until the grate is hot, about 5 minutes; scrape the grill grate clean with a grill brush.
Remove the salmon from the marinade and sprinkle the flesh liberally with pepper. Using long-handled grill tongs, dip a wad of paper towels in vegetable oil and wipe the hot side of the grill grate. Place the fillets flesh-side down on the hot side of the grill and cook until grill-marked, about 1 minute. Using tongs, flip fillets skin-side down, still on the hot side of the grill; brush the flesh with glaze and cook until the salmon is opaque about halfway up the thickness of the fillets,
3 to 4 minutes.
Again using long-handled grill tongs, dip a wad of paper towels in vegetable oil and wipe the cooler side of the grill grate. Brush the flesh again with glaze, then turn the fillets flesh-side down onto the cooler side of the grill; cook until deeply browned, a crust has formed and the center of the thickest part of the fillet is still translucent when cut into with a paring knife, about 1 1/2 minutes. Transfer the fillets to a platter, brush with the reserved 2 tablespoons glaze and serve immediately with lemon wedges.

Two degrees of generations
Grandmother, grandson to graduate from ACU
When Jeremy McKissick graduates from Abilene Christian University on May 12, he'll be joined by someone he knows well.
His grandmother.
Mary Lou McKissick, 73, wraps up college studies that began in 1992 when she earns a bachelor's degree in applied studies.
And she'll do it with a 4.0 grade point average.
''Those brain synapses work a bit slower as you get older,'' she joked. ''I was often in classes with freshmen and sophomores. That really makes you work.''
All that work paid off Thursday. McKissick was honored as one of 51 University Scholars at a special ceremony at ACU's Chapel on the Hill. Even though participants were encouraged to hold their applause until the end of the ceremony, ACU provost Dwayne VanRheenen gleefully allowed it for Mary Lou McKissick.
Jeremy McKissick said he is proud of his grandmother.
''She's been an amazing student, and I don't know how she accomplished everything she did,'' he said.
Mary Lou has long been part of the ACU family - and she had to work longer than most students to get that bachelor's degree.
For 15 years, McKissick worked at ACU's Pruett Gerontology Center, where she was administrative coordinator. She retired about three years ago.
She began college in 1992, but took a break from 1995 to 2000 to care for her own elderly mother, Edna Stach. Since 2000, she's taken a class here and there and received course credit for some of her work experience, which includes everything from teaching piano to helping her husband, Joe McKissick, in missionary and ministry work.
She remembers having to work hard in her math classes and in a Maymester short course in major British writers.
But she also said she's going to ''miss not being a student.''
The following students were honored Thursday as University Scholars at Abilene Christian University. Students honored had to maintain at least a 3.5 grade point average and actively engage in matters related to soul and service.

It looks like you can draw with 11. 12 would have guaranteed the tag.
66 is coming back pretty good too although some of it can be contributed to migrating deer off 67. The East side of 67 still isn't doing that well but that side got hammered a lot harder.
Pack mule I've heard the same thing. So much so that as a resident in CO I'm evaluating putting in for unit 67 3rd season this year. Not familiar with the unit and it would be my first dive in for a trophy muley. Point creep is making it a hard choice though as I know the points I have saved will be worth more than points gathered later down the road if I spend em this year.
Is scouting a challenge in this unit with the migratory patterns or does a first time chaser DIY public guy have a good shot at a 180+? Appreciate any insights.
There's a decent shot at it bc it's a premium tag. Scouting helps out a lot and it can be done without ever leaving a rd if it's done during the 2nd/3rd season split. I wouldn't put much faith in late summer scouting.
Good advice packmule. I saw some deer in the sage recently, well November, none were shooters. I am confident I can find a 190 plus in unit 67. I have scouted it 4 times and hunted it once. I sure left some good ones there. This should be an easy hunt so don't make it unnecessarily hard.
Do you think 67 is a better choice than 66? 66 seems a little harder to draw, but they are right next to each other.
From what I've heard 66 is a little better, more public land in 66 also. I personally would put in for 66 if I had the points.

(AUSTIN, Texas) -- The worst-kept secret in Texas is no longer a secret at all. Democratic State Senator Wendy Davis has announced her intention to run for governor. It was an 11-hour filibuster against strict, new abortion regulations that thrust her into a national spotlight -- and earned her a legion of supporters and critics on either side of the abortion debate.
"Texas deserves a leader who understands that making education a priority creates good jobs for Texas," she said.
Davis has already raised a million dollars in campaign contributions. Her presumptive Republican opponent, state Attorney General Greg Abbott -- a well-connected figure who has been a paraplegic since a storm-related accident in 1984 -- reportedly has $20 million campaign chest.

Schulz, Stefan Namibia is swept up in an unprecedented wave of gender based murder. We seem at a loss of how to react effectively to this phenomenon. Individual responses like "bury them alive", "this carnage has to stop…immediately", "reintroduce the death penalty" reflect a high degree of helplessness. It is important to note however, that the incidence of gender based murder is perceived as something which is a more recent phenomenon, something which was not there two, three generations back. This is a contention which is extremely difficult to prove for a number of reasons which cannot be explicated here. But it is a contention which provides leverage with those who profess it, because it allows us to bring society back into the equation. It implies (a) that the root cause of the problem is not situated at individual level, (b) that the problem has been in the making for a long time, a problem which did not fall out of the blue sky, and (c) that it is intertwined with the continuous evolution of our social structure. If this is so, punishment as a means of specific and general deterrence will not to help much. The instrumental effect of punitive action as a deterrence is small, and for the symbolic meaning of increased public censure to become functionally integrated in the mind/self of members of society, of actual or potential criminal actors, in other words to take effect at individual level, with a measurable effect at aggregate level (incidence), it needs to be systematically backed up in and throughout the social. Punishment as deterrence satisfies our need for action, but like in most other instances of raising punitivity levels (e.g. Stock Theft Act), the effects are barely measurable, and action becomes activism. 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Namibia, child justice and the UNHCR: Warm love gone cold?

Schulz, Stefan The United Nations provided an important point of reference for the Namibian liberation movement long before Independence. The Charter of the United Nations proclaimed already in 1945 "the respect for the principle of equal rights and self-determination of peoples". The UN Declaration on the Granting of Independence to Colonial Countries and Peoples, contained in the General Assembly resolution 1514 (XV) of 14 December 1960 referred to this principle as much as the Resolution on Namibia CM/Res.1055 (XLIV), passed by the Council of Ministers of the Organization of African Unity decades later.2 Shortly after Independence Namibia became an enthusiastic member of the United Nations, and embraced quickly a plethora of international treaties and conventions,3 amongst others the United Nations Convention on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC). Namibia signed and ratified the UNCRC on 26 and 30 September 1990 respectively. Following the World Summit for Children, New York 29-30 September 1990, the Namibian government established an Inter Ministerial Policy Committee, tasked to draft a National Programme of Action for Children of Namibia (NPA) and to "consider steps to implement the Convention on the Rights of the Child."4 One should think that by now Namibia would have achieved a full implementation of most of the standards emanating from the convention. The current state of affairs is however mixed. Today, twenty three years later, notwithstanding some improvements of the situation of the child, two primordial milestones have not been reached, i.e. the establishment of (a) a child (juvenile) justice system, and (b) a child care and protection system.5 2014-01-01T00:00:00Z Rethinking survival: Metaphors of hope and peaceful conflict resolution methods during crisis times.

Mlambo, Nelson This paper examines the role of imaginative literature in offering insights into various peace-oriented conflict resolution methods. Through a critical analysis of three short stories set in a dystopian Zimbabwean context of extreme difficulties, the paper argues that hope is ubiquitous and fictions of our time offer subtle and strategic pointers to probable solutions. Through the presentation of the lived experiences of ordinary citizens, the short stories analysed ultimately point to a realisable vision of the future which has pointers which are suggestive of life beyond survival. 2013-01-01T00:00:00Z Review of the book Dust by Yvonne Adhiambo Owuor.

Literally. The reef saver rocks arrived in great shape. Only one rock was chipped. The packaging was 5 stars. Also, the price was the best that I could find on-line. Now my review. Pros: 1) Good price/value. 2) The rocks fit together well. With a little epoxy, these rocks can be stacked together like Legos. 3) Fairly strong but not as strong as real rock. 4) Over time, these rocks will "resemble" real rock and coralline algae does grow on them. 5) Eco-friendly. Does not come from the ocean. Cons: 1) Brittle. These "rocks" crack/chip easily. 2) Powdery. Rocks need to be rinsed thoroughly. Your water will be cloudy for a few days even after numerous rinses. 3) Not real rock. If you want a tank that looks like the ocean then I would stay with real rock. Nothing can replace mother nature. 4) This rock may increase your phosphate levels. So, monitor your levels for a few days. 5) These rocks are very white and bleached looking. So, if you want a real, natural looking reef tank then stay with live rock but help save the environment and use this rock as base rock. For example, if you needed 150 pounds of live rock. You could use 50 pounds of reef rock as your base. This would definitely help the environment and your wallet. I hope this review was helpful. 1st Time with Rocks By Robert on 12/31/2011 Robert would recommend this product to a friend Still working on my 120G. Ordered 120lbs and got 133 of Reef Saver. Nice sizes in boxes. Packaged better than i would have thought. out of 133lbs i got maybe 4lbs of Rubble, That i will thank UPS for as it looked like they dropped the one box.

By Brian on 12/28/2011 Brian would recommend this product to a friend I decided to go wih dry rock over live rock this time around because of the horrible experiences I have had with pests and algae. Wouldn't look back one bit. Very nice rocks, very porous and full of crags and caves. Would recommend this to anyone. Amazing By TheBull on 12/25/2011 TheBull would recommend this product to a friend This rock is light, porous and full of hiding places. Stacks seamlessly. I had 1/2 a pound of rubble in a 50 pound box. Packing was great. I ordered 50 pounds for my 34 gal Solana because it's cheap and i wanted some aquascaping options. I might be able to fit 30-35 pounds of it in the tank and it will be full of rock. I couldn't fit all 50 pounds if i tried. Don't hesitate. This is the best rock at the best price with no impact on wild reefs. It's a no brainer GET IT! By fishkid on 12/19/2011 fishkid would recommend this product to a friend This rock is awsome! I orderd 39-40lbs and got around 45lbs. I would suggest this rock to any one new-old to the hobby. Looks good in tank and joins together perfectly. Amazing rock By Cody on 12/14/2011 Cody would recommend this product to a friend Not much can be said that hasn't already been said! This rock truly is amazing. All the pieces fit together perfect just like in the videos. I wish I would have known about this sooner so I could have used reefsaver for all my rock! All my pieces were as white as can be, so I didn't have to cure anything, just a quick rinse and plopped em right end. If your torn between this and the pukani...double up on this. The pukani can't even compare Have had this rock for over a year now By Matt on 12/3/2011 Matt would recommend this product to a friend It is fantastic looking with the purple coraline. Stacks nice and the fish love it. Great price, order enough to get the free shipping and save more! I split some with a friend and he loves it as well. Very Nice Rock By Loren on 12/2/2011 Loren would recommend this product to a friend I ordered 46 pounds of this rock and was very pleased when it arrived. There was about 2 pounds worth of broken rubble but they shipped 49 pounds anticipating that. This rubble will be great in the fuge or as natural looking reef "plugs". The rock itself looks great, can't wait to start aquascaping with it! Be careful when you take the rocks out of the box. be sure to shake the rubble off before you place it outside the box or you will have tiny rubble pieces everywhere. Awesome!!!! By Nick on 12/1/2011 Nick would recommend this product to a friend Ordered the rock and recieved it in 2 days like always!! Best shipping ever! The rock is the best quality i have seen. Goes together like lincoln logs just like they said. Best rock hands down. Awe-some. By Peter on 12/1/2011 Peter would recommend this product to a friend Well, the five starts and 125+ reviews says it all. Narly, interesting, light, clean rock- and no-impact on the reef. Doesn't get any better. I plan to "cook" it in a tank with some aqua-cultured critter kits and a few coralline pieces to kick-start things, for a zero-impact reef tank. Bravo to BRS for carrying it.

Rebekah Brooks, the former boss of Rupert Murdoch's British newspapers, is due to begin her defence on Wednesday against allegations she was complicit in widespread phone-hacking at the now defunct News of the World weekly.
Reuters reported that Brooks, who was so close to the media mogul she was dubbed his fifth daughter, will testify for the first time in the long-running trial after the prosecution formally wraps up its case against her, her husband and five other former Murdoch employees.
The case centers on widespread phone-hacking by journalists at the News of the World Sunday tabloid, which Murdoch closed amid huge public anger in July 2011, and other allegations of crimes by staff on its sister daily paper The Sun.
Brooks, who ran News Corp.'s British newspaper arm News International until July 2011 and had previously edited both papers, denies conspiracy to illegally intercept voicemail messages on mobile phones, conspiracy to commit misconduct in a public office by authorizing illegal payments to public officials, and conspiracy to pervert the course of justice.
During testimony over 14 weeks, prosecutors have detailed evidence of phone-hacking and other alleged crimes by journalists working for Murdoch's British titles.
The jury has heard that three senior journalists who held news editor roles at the tabloid had admitted phone-hacking offences, while a private detective, Glenn Mulcaire, who worked for the paper had pleaded guilty to carrying out hacks.
Victims included the wife of future heir-to-the-throne Prince William, Kate Middleton, and his younger brother Harry. Brooks is also said to have approved an illegal payment for a picture of William wearing a bikini to a party.
Those to have taken the stand so far include actor Jude Law and his former girlfriend actress Sienna Miller.
But the most startling disclosure was that Brooks had had an affair with Andy Coulson, another former News of the World editor who went on to work as Prime Minister David Cameron's media chief until 2011 and who is also on trial.
The prosecution's phone-hacking case against Brooks revolves around the tapping of the mobile of murdered schoolgirl Milly Dowler.
News of the Dowler hack in the summer of 2011 caused a "media firestorm" that prompted Murdoch to close the 168-year-old News of the World, then Britain's biggest-selling paper.

Fixing Egypt's Economy: No More Military Macaroni
by Daniel Pipes
Translations of this item:
Since July 3, Gen. Abdel Fattah al-Sisi has made it clear who runs Egypt: he does. He faces two great challenges. One is the Islamist element, spoiling for a fight to take back the power it so recently lost. The other, my focus here, is the economy.
The country once famous as the "breadbasket of the Nile" now imports something like 70 percent of its food. To make matters worse, decreasing income could mean that the money will just not be there – other than gifts from Saudi Arabia and other governments – to fend off starvation. Plus, the prospect looms of severe cuts in the country's Nile water allotment. What to do?
If Sisi is to break the bonds of Egyptian poverty, he must end the subsidy regime and pull the military out of the economy.
Focusing on the latter topic, and relying on Shana Marshall and Joshua Stacher in MERIP and Nimrod Raphaeli in MEMRI: what's sometimes known as "Military, Inc." controls somewhere between 25 and 40 percent of the economy. Its products
It also invests in infrastructure projects and owns land. The military has grown so large because of preferential tax treatment, subsidized labor, an extra-legal status, old-boy networks, and many other privileges, such as not having to cope with the civilian bureaucracy. Its enterprises run along socialistic lines and are steeped in nepotism and baroque forms of corruption.
Egypt's economy can only take off if Sisi has the courage to tell his colleagues that the gig is up, that the armed forces are leaving the macaroni and other businesses so that Egyptians can build a competitive economy. I can't imagine he will do this of his own accord, for officers have become accustomed to the good life, with plenty of money and an abundance of free servants, and he is both one of them and dependent on their good will. (Mubarak had to resign not because of street protests but because the military leadership told him it was time to go.)
Hammering at this message is one of the more important actions that foreign governments can take when meeting with Sisi and the military leadership. (July 30, 2013)
Aug. 8, 2013 update: An analysis by The Meir Amit Intelligence and Terrorism Information Center, "The Revolutionary Guards' involvement in the economy comes under increasing criticism following Rowhani's victory in the presidential election," points out that Iran faces roughly the same problem of military meddling in the economy as does Egypt:
For details, see the full report.
Nov. 6, 2013 update: Dalibor Rohac takes up the other great economic challenge in "Solving Egypt's Subsidy Problem." The basic recommendation is to replace subsidies with cash transfers.
Dec. 5, 2013 update: The prospects of serious economic reform in Egypt have dropped yet further with the news that friendly Persian Gulf states have invested $50 billion in 66 projects.
Oct. 6, 2014 update: I offer a larger view of this problem today at "Hunger Growls in Egypt."

U.S. Sen. Mary Landrieu, taking a break from national issues, is urging the state Legislature to limit the use of the state's coastal wetlands trust fund as a pass-through account to turn one-time revenue into supposedly recurring revenue that can be used to plug annual budget gaps.
She has a good point.
As I wrote a few weeks ago, the wetlands trust fund itself doesn't really suffer from this maneuver in the short term. But as I also wrote (while citing a report by the Public Affairs Research Council), "[B]y setting the precedent of using for non-wetlands purposes any money categorized, however briefly, as part of the wetlands trust, the administration 'diminishes the integrity of the Coastal Fund' — with potentially harmful legal or political consequences down the road."
That said, perhaps there ought to be a tiny bit more leeway, within state budget rules, for "non-recurring" revenue to be used to shore up short-term budget holes. The simple fact is that because of how all the budget rules/laws interact with each other, it is quite likely that the state will, each year, benefit from officially "non-recurring" revenue of one sort or another — so that what is categorized as a temporary windfall is actually a fairly predictable benefit for state coffers. It's complicated. I absolutely support the general idea of the existing prohibition, but perhaps an amendment might be considered that allows up to, say, just 10 percent, or even 5 percent, of any non-recurring revenues to be tapped for annual budgeting purposes. That small amount of leeway can't harm future budgets too terribly, but it would provide a little wiggle room — and by providing wiggle room, it would take away some of the incentive for governors like Jindal to use somewhat sneaky means, such as the wetlands-fund pass-through, to circumvent the restrictions.
Either way, though, to the extent that the Jindal maneuver runs afoul of the basic spirit (if not the letter) of the current restriction, it is not a salutary budget practice. Landrieu is right to support a bill to foreclose the subterfuge. The wetlands trust fund is too important to allow its integrity to be threatened.

Beloit, WI -- The Beloit College Women's Basketball team suffered an unfortunate case of deja vu in Saturday's 56-47 loss to Illinois College in Flood Arena.
Like Friday, Beloit built a halftime advantage only to see it slip away in the second half.
The Bucs jumped out quickly on Saturday, scoring eight of the game's first ten points and pushing their lead as high as 15, that at 30-15 with 3:08 left before the break. IC started to cut into the lead late but Beloit led at halftime 33-22 after Kandace Fox hit a three-pointer four seconds before the buzzer.
The second half was much different. A 17-5 Lady Blues run in the first 7:35 of the half gave them their first lead of the game at 39-38. The Buccaneers retook the lead minutes later only to see Illinois College take the lead for good at the 7:06 mark. IC built their lead up to 12 with ten seconds left before Lauren McNanna hit a three-pointer with three seconds left for the final score.
McNanna led the way with a career-high 14 points, the only Buccaneer in double figures. Kandace Fox and Jenna Larsen each added eight points.
Beloit looks to get on the right side of the W/L column on Wednesday night when they host St. Norbert College. Tipoff is at 5:00 p.m.


text: I also go with Jorge. It depends upon what type of gears we are discussing. If they are brass (or similar) gears, I would recommend graphite - you can purchase graphite powder at any auto parts store or simply take a #2 (or softer pencil - e.g. B) and use the graphite tip of the pencil on the gears. Graphite works wonders on brass gears!

Paul Bird Motorsport will contest both the MotoGP World Championship and the British Superbike Championship in 2014 with the British team owner set to field two riders in each series.
The MotoGP team will be led for a second season by Ulsterman Michael Laverty and he'll be joined on the team's PBM Aprilias by Australian Broc Parkes. On the British Superbike side of the team Shane Byrne is set to return with British Supersport Champion Stuart Easton joining him on the team's Rapid Solicitors Kawasaki ZX-10Rs.
Laverty ended his debut season in the MotoGP World Championship in 25th overall with a best result of 13th at Jerez. Parkes, meanwhile, is a former runner-up in the World Supersport Championship and last raced a Kawasaki for the PBM team in World Superbikes in 2009.
"We learned so much in year one that I'm delighted Paul has continued his involvement with MotoGP and that he's given me the opportunity to continue with the project," Laverty said. "Everyone has told me that year two is much easier so the aim is to put into place what we have learned and to raise our game accordingly. The class is going to be a lot tougher with the new production bikes, but our aim is to consistently score points."
In the MCE Insurance British Superbike Championship, Byrne was narrowly beaten to the title in the very last race of the season but became the most successful rider in series history taking his tally to 51 wins. Returning to the team he last raced with in 2012, Scotsman Easton is hoping to add to his success for the Cumbrian-based team.
"Paul and I agreed to a deal ages back and I'm made up I'll be racing for the PBM Rapid Solicitors Kawasaki team once again in 2014," Byrne said. "We came so close to defending our title that it makes us even more determined to win it back this season and I know I've got the most competitive package to do that. We had a successful test in Spain earlier this week so I'm feeling confident already."
All four bikes are expected to run in the traditional British Racing Green livery and the team will be officially unveiled at the London Motorcycle Show on February 14.
"Firstly, I'd like to say a massive thanks to Paul Bird for the opportunity to work with his team once again; I'm really looking forward to it," Parkes said. "This is the premier class and it's every rider's dream to race in MotoGP. I know this is going to be a tough season, but I'm certainly up for the challenge, I can't wait to get started."
Bird is happy with the teams he's put together.
"It's taken a little while, but I've got the four riders I wanted in the two championships I wanted to race in," the team owner said. "We've done a lot of spade work in MotoGP over the past two seasons so the plan is to build on that and work with our partners and Michael and Broc are very capable of delivering. As for BSB, it really hurt us losing our crown to Honda so Shakey's back to try and reclaim it and Stuart needed a year away from BSB and is now back in the big time with us. We have some wonderful and loyal sponsors with Personal Injury and Clinical Negligence specialists Rapid Solicitors and Fuchs Silkolene on board again and also, we'd like to welcome MAC Tools too."

Like most modern sewists, I dabble in other crafts--mostly knitting and mostly patternless scarves. Sewing can get pretty complicated, and sometimes it's nice to just slip into the soothing, simplified world of knit and purl.
Sometimes, all it takes is a little siblingrivalry to pass on a craft.
Last summer during a family visit, I was taking my 9-year-old niece Bella shopping for her birthday present and she spied a knitting kit that was packaged for her age group. To my surprise, this was what she wanted "Aunt Amber" to buy. Apparently, she had learned a bit of knitting in camp and wanted to continue. It was an easy garter stitch scarf project--right up my alley.
We worked on the scarf together for a few days, and then I took it home with me, along with a promise to finish it for her. Neither her mother nor grandmother knits, so I knew it would quickly go to the global pile of UFOs if I didn't give an assist.
Of course, I put the project away, and the holidays and another family visit in another place crept up on me with not more than a few rows completed. I packed the project in my suitcase with a resolution to finish it before Bella showed up.
Once I arrived, I took the project along with me when I spent an afternoon at another sister's house, with yet more nieces. One is the same age as Bella, and as soon as she discovered that her cousin was learning to knit, she wanted to learn, too. And then little sister had to learn what big sister was learning.
Both girls sat there with me, working intently with me on completing Bella's scarf. By the time we finished, we had a few dropped stitches, but it was the most beautiful scarf I had ever seen--and one made with much love. Before the holiday had ended, these nieces also had their own needles, skeins of bargain yarn, and projects under way. Bella had her community-completed scarf. And I felt like I had made the world a slightly better place by getting my nieces started in a craft that has given me much peace in the chaos.
Don't you know that familial rivalry is at the root of all crafts getting passed along? At any rate, it doesn't hurt.
If you are a sewist who dabbles in knitting, like me, you should consider subscribing to the gorgeous Interweave Knits magazine.
And I would love to hear your own stories of how you have passed on crafts to the next generation in your family.
Happy stitching!
Oh, my, when I read the title of this article I thought, "Wow, someone who can give me advice on how to pass on a (learning a new) craft! There are so many fun crafts out there to do and so little time to do them!
I have passed on the 'craft' of quilting through offering free classes at my church. I passed on the 'craft' of sewing to my mother ... when I was 16 years old I taught her to install a zipper and she went nuts making clothes as she had never been able to master this skill from her 'home ec' class in high school.
I gave my son's fiancee craft storage boxes, jewelry tools, bead, etc for Christmas and she and I are sharing patterns we find on the internet!
One Christmas I decided to give both my daughters easy garter stitch knitting kits with the hope that they would learn the lifelong skill. The older one took to it like water, and now, many years later, knits beautiful complicated lace shawls, Nordic sweaters and other items that put my skills to same. The younger daughter made it through about six rows and asked me to finish the scarf for her. That was 15 years ago. Recently the younger one asked for another knitting kit for Christmas. She wants to give it another try (probably out of a bit of envy of her sister.) I'm more of a sewist and credit my cousin who I'd watch make doll clothes for her Muffie dolls. I think it's seeing the joy in crafting we older folks get from handwork that inspires the next generation.
Over the past nine years I have started sewing classes in my home for young girls.
I start them at 7 yrs old and up. They love it and we take pictures of all their projects.
I feel that sewing is getting to be a lost art and I wanted to teach the next generation to sew. So far I have had 14 students and they have done amazing sewing. One of my sewers was a 14 yr old boy and now he is married and makes clothes for his wife. It's very rewarding to teach them.
When I was 8 years old my fathers Aunt, My Great Aunt Katie, taught me to knit. I was hooked from the start. She would aways say, Every French girl should know how to knit. She was a inspiration and my way to learn needle arts of all kinds.
My daughter has learned how to quilt, needle point, rug hooking, and other wonderful crafts from my interest. We have shared many wonderful hours enjoying and spending time together doing making something together.
Now my Daughter-in-law has started to knit, and my grand son 3 years old, loves to handle the yarn too. As a gift this Christmas I found a group of knitting Needles to give her and add to her basic equipment.
It is so much fun to watch young people have an interest in something other then technecal internet devices....and that they can put them down for a time to product something of beauty and practicality.
Somehow, I managed to pass on to my daughter my love of sewing. She started with simple envelopes or drawstring bags to store her little girl treasures. Then she graduated to simple clothes and wanted to actually take sewing lessons. A local store offered lessons and she was soon making T-Shirts, dresses, bags and things. We eventually started making purses for sale and have sold hundreds, that business was retired, but she takes contracts for altering draperies for hotels, sews for her friends and herself, and is totally awesome!
Having learned to sew at my mother's knee, it's my first love. But my 5th grade teacher taught me to crochet, so it's a close second, and I've enjoyed a number of other crafts as well. There was always a shortage of girls in our family, but when my first granddaughter came along, I started her crafting at an early age. She didn't live close to me, but when she was here on a visit we crafted and at age 8, she said that I had to teach her to crochet so that she could someday teach her granddaughter! So I did. She didn't start sewing until she was in college, and now she loves to sew, so it must be in the genes. She's 27 now, and never goes anywhere without a crochet project! She does all the crafts I've done and more. I do enjoy the sewing tips in Sew Daily (old dogs can learn new tricks!), and keep every issue in a file for future reference.
When he was younger, my brother wanted me to knit a sleeping bag for his GI Joe. I told him I would teach him, and he could make one. I designed a mummy bag, with a hood and everything. Quite an experience, teaching a 7 year old ( I was 19) to knit, especially since he was a lefty and I'm not. We got it finished, and I put in a zipper for him. I doubt that he has picked up knitting needles since, but it was fun.
I loved, loved, loved reading this post! I grew up in New Jersey in the 70s where crafting and home economics were part of the curriculum. I was fortunate enough to "dabble" in many crafts as a child which I credit to my life-long love of working with my hands. Today, I am so incredibly lucky to be an elementary school teacher, and I get to teach new generations to "make" in the same way that I learned. An entire section of my classroom library is dedicated to arts and crafts (it's a very popular section), and once per semester for several days at a time, we hold what we call "Kid University" where kids learn new crafts, and teach each other the crafts they already know. In our most recent KidU, one of my students taught a course on block printing. She's 9! I teach knitting, crocheting, sewing, scrap booking, and several other crafts throughout the year. I'm even the knit/crochet nurse for my former students, who are down the hall in middle school, when they drop stitches. I adore the sense of community that this has created between me and my students. Thank you for this post!
Two years ago, I started teaching my then 8 year old granddaughter to sew. She has great concentration and with me, has made paper-pieced pillows and a night shirt. Although she does not live near me, she sews with her Aunt, too. Since she sews regularly with her Aunt, I've begun teaching her how to spin. The first time she tried, she did extremely well - better than I did on my first (few hundred) tries. We tried again when she was here at Christmas. She didn't do quite as well, but if we work on it each time she comes to visit, I'm sure she will catch on. She seems to really enjoy it. Since this is a craft that is not common, especially in the city, this will be something she will be able to pass on to friends and to her own children (once she learns) - to people who are less likely to learn elsewhere.
Passing on the art of sewing is the mission of my pattern company. It's why I do what I do. I try to teach both children and adults to sew by thoroughly explaining each step of my patterns. And at home, I teach 4-Hers to sew. And you know what? Between my business and my 4-Hers, the 4-Hers are the most rewarding, hands down! Thanks for this great post, Amber. -Melissa Stramel, Lilac Lane Patterns
I made my daughter learn to crochet and knit when she was about 12. I told her she didn't have to continue if she didn't like it. "But when you're old it's better to say "I could do that if I want to," than "I wish I had let Mom teach me." She learned, put it down for about 7 yrs, then picked up the crochet hooks and made a dozen fancy scarves for her friends. Currently working on a baby blanket. And I keep nudging my long-distance daughter-in-law towards the needles. I will win her over eventually.
A few years ago my 30-ish niece was here at Christmas and decided to start a sweater. It had a couple of cables in it and she had her mind in a snarl that she couldn't "do" cables. I showed her how to use a cable needle, slide X stitches onto the cable needle, work X stitches, then work X stitches from the cable needle and be on her way. Ah, that easy. Too bad she didn't bother to learn how to put the pieces together to make a complete garment. Wonder what happened to that project?!?!?!?
I am an avid crocheter and my 9 year old nephew (now 39) watched me crocheting. It wasn't long before he asked me if he could do it. Giving him the biggest hook I could find I showed him how to make a starting chain and told him to make one as long as he wanted it to be. A short time later he said he was going outside and I thought that his interest was short lived. A while later he came in trailing the longest starting chain I had ever seen behind him. From there we went through the basic stitches one row at a time. The chain was so long by the time he got to the end he had mastered the stitch. He lives in CO. so I don't see him very often but he has croched some amazing things over the years and he sends me pics of his work and that of his daughter who he taught the same way I taught him.
I have passed on the craft of drop spindling. My niece saw me spinning at a family gathering and came over to watch; she eventually 'helped' me by spinning the spindle while I drafted the wool out.
When I got home I made her a simple drop spindle out of waste wood and gave it to her on the school bus (which I take to work most days) along with some hand combed wool. We spent the bus ride happily learning to spin in an unstable environment; there were lots of giggles and everyone on the bus contributed ideas and were very supportive of success.
I have given her two more bags of combed wool since then and she has also developed an interest in knitting so she can use the beautiful wool she makes.

This sponsored post was written by me on behalf of Lunchbox. Regardless of compensation, all opinions are 100% my own.
With my first child, I had a the brilliant frugal plan to invest in one or two pair of reusable swim diapers and save a bundle. I found a cute one with ruffles on the bottom. It was perfect… that was until I hit the pool and I saw the signs.
If you're a parent, you know the signs I mean – disposable swim diaper required. Some also require additional plastic pants over top. But basically, if you plan on taking your young child to a public pool, sprayground, or beach, you're going to have to invest in disposable swim diapers.
Why? Well, I'm by no means an expert, but the explanation my local pool gave me made completely sense. The quality of reusable diapers varies greatly, from handmade to brand-name. Without research, the pool has no way of knowing if your diaper meets CDC regulations created to stop the spread of germs, mainly in fecal matter, in the pool.
Saving on swim diapers can be a challenge – guessing which size to buy at end-of-the-year clearance for next year, hunting down rare coupons, and finding sales. Honestly, when I need them most, I can rarely find a great deal and we always run through them quicker than I planned with our frequent trips to the sprayground right down the road.
This year, Sam's Club Members can pick up Huggies Little Swimmers Disposable Swimpants at Sam's Club and save an average of $6.06 when compared to non-promoted retail prices over a 13-week period.
And, if this is your first summer with a baby, I have something important to tell you – swim diapers are only meant to hold in the solid! Put it on when you arrive at the pool. Otherwise, you'll end up finding out your carseat or stroller has been soaked thoroughly. I don't want you to learn the hard way, like I did. It's not a pleasant surprise.

In Jeff Krell's latest graphic novel, Jayson Gets a Job!, everyone is having a career crisis. Desperate for work, Jayson pulls out the stops to land a job at his ex-lover Walter's firm – with unexpected results. Meanwhile, Arena's parents cut off her allowance and she needs a real job – fast! And with his DVD business on the skids, Robyn plunges into a gender-bending new venture.
Krell explains, "When I created 'Jayson' in 1982, I had just earned a liberal arts degree and entered a job market that was utterly unreceptive. I took a series of low-paying jobs that didn't even require a college degree, just because I had to pay the rent. Now, thirty years later, with the 'jobless recovery' in full swing, a new generation is facing similarly dismal prospects. I think a lot of people will relate to Jayson's job struggles."
Sound depressing? Not in the hands of a talent like Krell, who unleashes his trademark barbs and sly asides at every turn. As he effortlessly maneuvers his characters between scenarios involving comedy, politics, sex, and science fiction, Krell manages to laugh in the face of a struggling economy, just as he did during his – and his strip's – formative years.
Jayson Gets a Job! (96 pp., $12.95) will debut at New York Comic Con (Oct. 11-14), where Krell will be a guest at the Prism Comics booth, as well as at San Francisco's Alternative Press Expo (Oct. 13-14), where Prism will also have a booth. "Jayson" comics and graphic novels are available at finer bookstores, progressive comics shops, Amazon.com, IndyPlanet, iTunes, and the Prism Comics Online Shop.

Lawmaker unfazed by inhibition-A A +A
Sunday, July 20, 2014
BAGUIO Representative Nicasio Aliping Jr. remained calm over charges hurled against him despite Benguet prosecutor William Bacoling's inhibition in the case filed by the Department of Environment and Natural Resources (DENR).
Aliping said it will not matter what particular prosecution office will handle his case as long as the truth comes out. The case was filed by the DENR against Aliping for alleged violation of the Philippine Forestry Code.
"We have to respect whatever decision they have undertaken so far as the case is concerned," he said.
Bacoling earlier inhibited from the case to dispel suspicion of bias, citing conflict of interest in the relationship of the prosecutor and two of the respondents who represent the alleged contractors in earth-moving activities in Kabuyao.
Bacoling is said to be a close relative of Bernard Capuyan of the BLC Construction and Aggregates, while Romeo Aquino of RUA Construction and Development Corporation is his brother in Masonic Fraternity.
Bacoling already submitted his formal inhibition and eventual assignment of the case to regional prosecutor Nonnatus Ceasar Rojas of the Regional Prosecutor's Office in La Union last July 14, including the record and documents of the case.
Benguet Governor Nestor Fongwan said he was surprised with the inhibition of the Provincial Prosecutor's Office.
"Siya lang sana nag inhibit, it should not be the whole office," he said.
Fongwan, however, said: "Sana mapunta sa isang area na neutral ang magiging action."
Aliping, meanwhile, bared several factors could have affected the water sources of the Baguio Water District.
He said this was based on the ocular inspection of the Environmental Management Bureau on July 18.
"It was a fruitful one," Aliping said, adding "it was established that there are other factors in the area."
It was earlier alleged that aside from the excavation and the road construction near Aliping's property, vegetable growers and small-scale mining activities may have also contributed to the devastation of the Amliang water sources.

THERESA Lance G. Willix, a longtime volunteer firefighter praised by his chief for being always around here to answer a call, was seriously injured Friday evening at the scene of an accident when he was struck by a vehicle driven by a Jefferson County sheriffs deputy.
The 43-year veteran of the Theresa Fire Department was directing traffic near a two-vehicle crash close to the intersection of routes 37 and 411 near LaFargeville Road, Theresa Fire Chief Mark S. Savage said. About 5:30 p.m., Mr. Willix was hit when a vehicle driven by Deputy Shaun D. Cuddeback, who was responding to the incident, turned north onto Route 37, according to the Sheriffs Department.
Mr. Savage said he was only a few feet away from Mr. Willix, 67, Theresa, when he was hit. I heard the impact, Mr. Savage said. I turned around and there he was. All I could do was try to keep him still.
Mr. Willix was taken by helicopter to Upstate Medical University, Syracuse, where a nursing supervisor said he was listed in fair condition late Friday.
Mr. Savage said he was able to talk with Mr. Willixs wife at the hospital, and she reported Mr. Willix was stable but had suffered a broken femur. He said he was told more tests were being run to gauge the severity of Mr. Willixs injuries.
Two people involved in the initial crash, first called in at 5:01 p.m., were taken to area hospitals with non-life-threatening injuries.
Police were investigating whether the presence of bystanders and fire apparatus may have been a factor in Mr. Willixs accident.
Mr. Savage said Mr. Willix was wearing all of the necessary safety gear and was following proper procedure to direct traffic at the time of the incident.
You look at it, and hes the last one youd think would be involved in something like this, Mr. Savage said. Hes done a lot of roads for a lot of hours.
Mr. Savage said medical crews, already at the scene of the initial collision, were able to respond to Mr. Willix immediately.
He added this was the first time he had seen an incident like this in 25 years serving with the department.
Mr. Savage said Mr. Willix is serving as the fire departments president, and previously had been the president of the Jefferson County Fire Chiefs Association.
If youve been in the fire service, everybody knows the name, Mr. Savage said.
Both incidents are still under investigation.
