This is my first intermediate-ish dress, and I think it turned out pretty great! Don't get me wrong, I made plenty of mistakes, but thankfully most of them are inside the dress. I plan to even out the sleeve length later by gathering the sleeve sides a bit.
Overall, a terrific first intermediate pattern experience!

Developers buy land for business park along I-75
Send this story to a friend
- Ginger Christ
- Reporter- Dayton Business Journal
- Email | Twitter
A Dayton-area developer is preparing to build a new business park at the Austin Boulevard interchange.
BW Partners Ltd., a joint venture partnership between Washington Township-based Mark Fornes Realty Inc. and Miamisburg-based Construction Managers of Ohio, is purchasing 80 acres of land on Byers Road for $4.1 million from the city of Miamisburg to develop Austin Business Park.
The development would be the second for BW Partners, which also worked together on Byers Business Park, a 175,000-square-foot development on Byers Road, just north of the Austin Road interchange, the first Interstate 75 exit north of Warren County that opened in 2010.
"We intend to continue the momentum we've created at Byers Business Park and develop the 80-acre site into a state of the art business park that will serve the south Dayton market for many years to come," said Jason Rudzinski, vice president and partner of Mark Fornes Realty. "We feel this development will become the premier office/industrial destination in our market because of its geographic location between Dayton and Cincinnati and the numerous amenities that will be provided at Austin Landing and the surrounding area."
BW Partners is in the early stages of master planning with the city.
The company plans to start the first building this year.
"Our primary focus will be developing flex office space but we will listen to the market and adjust our master plan to build what is in demand," Rudzinski said.
Mark Fornes, president of Mark Fornes Realty, said the company likes to develop speculative buildings in order to better meet customer demands.

Colombia Bombs Farc Camp ahead of Havana Peace Talks Resumption
- Order Reprints
- Text Size
By Umberto Bacchi | December 4, 2012 12:24 AM EST
The Colombian army has bombed a Farc rebel camp and killed 20 guerrillas - just as peace talks were about to resume.
Three separate camps were targeted during the operation in Narino province near the Ecuadorian border, the Colombian army said.
Farc (Revolutionary Armed Forces of Colombia) had announced a unilateral ceasefire allow talks to go ahead. They are scheduled to last until January 20.
Colombia's President Juan Manuel Santos refused to agree to a truce until the end of negotiations and warned rebels against attempts to delay disarmament and become a lawful opposition force.
Farc has also pledged to stop political kidnappings, but reports sugges that such activities continue.
The rebel group admitted recently to holding "prisoners of war", despite earlier denials.
Santos said Farc has less than 12 months to reach an agreement to end the warfare.
"This has to be a process of months, rather than years. This should not last any longer than November next year at the latest," said Santos
Peace talks between the guerrilla group and the Colombian government to end the five-decade armed conflict, started in October in Norway.
The second stage of negotiations is due to start in Havana after a one-week break.
The last attempt to end the conflict through peace talks was ended by the government in 2002 after three years of unsuccessful negotiations.
It has been estimated that 600,000 people have died since the conflict began. About 15,000 other went missing and four million people have been displaced.
Farc number about 8,000 fighters.

HONG KONG, March 17, 2013 /PRNewswire/ --
Financial Summary
- Revenue was approximately RMB15,248 million, about the same level as in 2011
- Gross profit was approximately RMB1,037 million, an increase of approximately 273.0%
- Net Profit attributable to owners of the parent was approximately RMB482 million, an increase of approximately 95.9%
- Earnings per share were RMB0.40, an increase of approximately 90.5%
- Proposed final dividend of RMB0.1246 per share (including tax), an increase of approximately 109.8%
Weiqiao Textile Company Limited ("the Company" or "Weiqiao Textile") and its subsidiaries, collectively the "Group") (HKEX: 2698), the largest cotton textile producer in China, announced its annual results for the year ended December 31, 2012 (the "Review Period" or the "Period").
Since the beginning of 2012, the Chinese textile industry has faced a very complex and volatile environment both domestically and overseas. A variety of adverse factors such as weak demand in overseas markets, slowing growth in domestic markets, widening gaps between domestic and overseas cotton prices, and increasing production costs, has resulted in a notable slowdown in China's textile industry. However, growth rates of the textile industry's major economic indicators have picked up slightly since September of 2012 due to stable growth in domestic demand, adjustments made by enterprises in commodity inventory levels, and lower comparable basis in 2011; while the gap between domestic and overseas cotton prices continued to widen, and demand from international markets remained sluggish, leaving the prospect for an industry recovery on shaky ground.
In 2012, as market conditions in the textile industry were grim, the Group recorded revenue of approximately RMB15,248 million, about the same level as in 2011. Net profit attributable to owners of the parent company was approximately RMB482 million, representing an increase of approximately 95.9% as compared with 2011. Earnings per share were RMB0.40. The Board recommended the payment of a final dividend of RMB0.1246 per share (tax inclusive) for the year ended 31 December 2012.
During the Year, the Group's production volume of cotton yarn, grey fabric and denim were approximately 450,000 tonnes, 1,045 million meters and 89 million meters, respectively. The production volume of cotton yarn, grey fabric and denim decreased by approximately 27.2%, 10.3% and 12.7%, respectively, year over year. The decrease was mainly because of intensified competition in the industry during the Year under Review as a result of the weak demand in the textile products market and large cotton price gap between domestic and overseas markets. The Group adjusted its production plan accordingly to reduce production volume in order to reduce its inventory level.
Commenting on the company's performance in 2012, Ms. Zhang Hongxia, Chairman of Weiqiao Textile, said, "During the Year, the international market for textile products and apparel remained sluggish due to the adverse effects of the weak recovery in the global economy and the sovereign debt crisis in Europe, while competition became more intense. In addition, part of export orders for textile products and apparel began shifting from China to neighboring countries with lower production costs, especially for lower-end products, thereby further intensifying international competition. During the year of 2012, domestic cotton prices remained stable while overseas cotton prices declined continuously, making overseas cotton much cheaper than domestic cotton. As a result, cotton costs of remained high for textile companies in China, which adversely affected the competitiveness of Chinese companies in the global markets. We were also affected to some extent."
"Looking into 2013, the recovery of the global economy still holds many uncertainties. As a result, Weiqiao Textile will continue to improve its product mix, encourage innovation, strengthen its brand image, and further enhance its profitability. In the meantime, by leveraging the Group's competitive advantages, which include global cotton procurement channels, self-generated electricity and steam supplies, Weiqiao Textile will continue its efforts to control costs and maintain, or even increase, its market share in the face of continued market turbulence through proactive sales strategies and flexible pricing policies. The Group's management believes that its operating efficiency and strategy will benefit once the market recovers."
Business Review
Despite the challenging market conditions, the Group continued to strengthen its business development capabilities, internal management and cost controls, as well as optimizing resource allocation. The Group also continued to further optimize its product portfolio to cater to market demand. It also took a more flexible sales strategy to reduce inventory level of finished products, increased the proportion of medium-and-high-end products, and made other improvements across its value chain from research and development to procurement, production and marketing and sales, so as to ensure its stable operation.
The proportions of revenue generated from the sales of Cotton yarn, grey fabrics and denim were 45.3%, 49.7% and 5.0% respectively. The breakdowns of revenue by products are as follows:
in 2012
in 2011
Cotton yarn
Grey fabric
For the year ended 31 December 2012, the proportion of the Group's revenue contributed by cotton yarn increased compared with the corresponding period of last year, while the proportion of revenue contributed by grey fabric decreased. It was mainly because the Group adopted a flexible sales strategy to reduce cotton yarn inventory according to the changes in market demand, which led to an increase in revenue generated from cotton yarn. The proportion of revenue contributed by denim remained at about the same level as compared with the corresponding period of last year.
For the year ended 31 December 2012, the breakdowns of revenue by regions are as follows:
In 2012
In 2011
Hong Kong
East Asia (1)
Note(1):East Asia includes Japan and South Korea
Note(2):Others mainly include Southeast Asia, the US, Europe, Taiwan and Africa
Selling and Distribution Expenses
The Group's selling and distribution expenses increased by approximately 14.4% to approximately RMB206 million for the year ended 31 December 2012 from approximately RMB180 million for the corresponding period of last year. In particular, transportation costs increased by approximately 15.4% to approximately RMB150 million from approximately RMB130 million in 2011, which was mainly due to the increased sales volume of the Group's products during the Year. Salary of the sales staff was approximately RMB28 million, representing an increase of approximately 64.7% as compared with approximately RMB17 million for the corresponding period of last year, which was primarily due to the increase in the sales amount of the Group's domestic sales during the Year, which resulted in the increase in sales staff's salary accordingly. Sales commission was approximately RMB10 million, representing a decrease of approximately 47.4% as compared with approximately RMB19 million of the corresponding period of last year, which was primarily due to a decrease in the Group's overseas sales through intermediate traders during the Year, which resulted in a decrease in the commission paid accordingly.
Administrative Expenses
Administrative expenses of the Group for the year ended 31 December 2012 amounted to approximately RMB252 million, representing an increase of approximately 9.1% as compared with approximately RMB231 million of the corresponding period of last year. It was primarily due to the upward adjustment of the salary of the administrative management staff.
Finance Costs
For the year ended 31 December 2012, finance costs of the Group were approximately RMB629 million, representing an increase of approximately 34.4% as compared with approximately RMB468 million of last year, among which, the interest expenses amounted to approximately RMB599 million, representing an increase of approximately 5.3% as compared with approximately RMB569 million of last year, which was mainly attributable to the increase in the interest rates of bank borrowings during the Year; and the exchange loss amounted to approximately RMB30 million for holding a large amount of balances of payables and loans denominated in US dollar, which was affected by the depreciation of the Renminbi; while an exchange gain of approximately RMB102 million was recorded last year.

There will be 50 billion Internet connected devices by 2020. Today, every manufacturer has a propriety protocol and an app. How do we securely integrate these "things" into our lives and businesses in a way that we can easily control and manage? Even better, how do we integrate these "things" so that they control and manage each other so our lives become more convenient or our businesses become more profitable and/or safe? We have heard that the best interface is no interface. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Chris Matthieu, Co-Founder & CTO at Octoblu, Inc., will discuss how these devices generate enough data to learn our behaviors and simplify/improve our lives.

We are reaching the end of the beginning with WebRTC and real systems using this technology have begun to appear. One challenge that faces every WebRTC deployment (in some form or another) is identity management. For example, if you have an existing service – possibly built on a variety of different PaaS/SaaS offerings – and you want to add real-time communications you are faced with a challenge relating to user management, authentication, authorization, and validation. Service providers will want to use their existing identities, but these will have credentials already that are (hopefully) irreversibly encoded. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Peter Dunkley, Technical Director at Acision, will look at how this identity problem can be solved and discuss ways to use existing web identities for real-time communication.

While great strides have been made relative to the video aspects of remote collaboration, audio technology has basically stagnated. Typically all audio is mixed to a single monaural stream and emanates from a single point, such as a speakerphone or a speaker associated with a video monitor. This leads to confusion and lack of understanding among participants especially regarding who is actually speaking. Spatial teleconferencing introduces the concept of acoustic spatial separation between conference participants in three dimensional space. This has been shown to significantly improve comprehension and conference efficiency.

The Internet of Things is tied together with a thin strand that is known as time. Coincidentally, at the core of nearly all data analytics is a timestamp. When working with time series data there are a few core principles that everyone should consider, especially across datasets where time is the common boundary. In his session at Internet of @ThingsExpo, Jim Scott, Director of Enterprise Strategy & Architecture at MapR Technologies, will discuss single-value, geo-spatial, and log time series data. By focusing on enterprise applications and the data center, he will use OpenTSDB as an example to explain some of these concepts including when to use different storage models.

Trina Solar jumps the gun on ITC decision14. February 2014 | Global PV markets, Industry & Suppliers, Investor news, Markets & Trends, Trade cases | By: Max Hall
The Chinese module manufacturer's acquisition of a mainland cell maker pre-empts the decision of the U.S. authorities, due this afternoon. Trina's Chinese bolt-on acquisition will be seen as an ominous move by Taiwanese cell makers.
Chinese solar manufacturer Trina Solar opted not to hang around waiting for the U.S. International Trade Commission (ITC) to reach a verdict on Taiwanese-made solar cells, announcing the bolt-on acquisition of a mainland cell manufacturer today.
In a press release on its website, Trina Solar revealed plans to expand production at Hubei Hongyuan PV Science and Technology Co Ltd to 420 MW by the middle of the year.
With the ITC today expected to start the ball rolling on closing the loophole that allows Chinese-made modules featuring cells made in third-party countries to avoid U.S. anti dumping (AD) and countervailing (CVD) duties, a wave of major Chinese manufacturers whom outsourced cell production to Taiwan, and other neighbouring countries, could follow Trina's lead in coming months.
Trina acquires majority stake
Changzhou-based Trina has acquired a 51% stake in Hubei Hongyuan, which is based in Xiantao in China's Hubei province, from its parent company Shenzhen SC New Energy Technology Corp, which will retain the remaining 49% interest. No financial details of the acquisition were revealed in the Trina Solar announcement.
The JV will change its name to Hubei Trina Solar Co.
SolarWorld Industries America – the U.S. subsidiary of German manufacturer SolarWorld – prompted an investigation by the ITC into whether Chinese panels featuring Taiwanese and other third-party-made cells are damaging U.S. manufacturers unfairly by being dumped in America and whether they are benefiting from state subsidies.
The ITC is set to vote on the issue at 1700 CET today and Trina's willingness to jump the gun and invest in Chinese cell production s a further indication of which way the wind is blowing.
The Trina acquisition comes in the wake of an announcement by the Chinese authorities of a 14 GW solar target this year, accompanied by a breakdown of the amount of solar which will qualify for incentives, by province.

Microsoft has found that a security gap in Internet
Explorer could allow a hacker to take complete control
of a computer.
Slow downs, pop-ups, and suspicious behaviors are
some of the signs to watch out for.
Experts say that home users or small business owners
with Internet Explorer are the most vulnerable and
should consider switching browsers.
The great alternative browsers are google chrome and
Mozilla Firefox.
We highly recommend using those um, instead of internet
explorer, they're much faster.
Google chrome is quite a bit faster, I prefer Firefox.
And if someone is using internet explorer, now would
be a great reason to switch to a different and I believe,
better browser.

Things kicked off with The Mentulls who played another dynamite set. This is the 3rd time this year I've caught the lads and it was fun to be able to sit and watch all the "first-timers" pick their lower jaws off the floor. Andrew on guitar is the "bluesman", Nick… (cont'd) Mike from Shildon

Travel Blogs from Woodstock
A Day in the Cotswolds
The Cotswolds region originally was a large producer of the finest wool in Europe which brought prosperity to the region. It fell onto difficult times, but today is enjoying a revival. A lot of the homes are constructed of stone from Bath, giving the area a charming appeal. We walked around Lower Slaughter with a working waterwheel, Stow- on- ...

... was originally intended to be a gift to John Churchill, 1st Duke of Marlborough, from a grateful nation in return for military triumph against the French and Bavarians at the Battle of Blenheim. However, it soon became the subject of political infighting, which led to Marlborough's exile, the fall from power of his duchess, and irreparable damage to the reputation of the architect Sir John Vanbrugh..The Churchills and ...
Blenheim Palace
... which I still do not understand). I then had lunch outside in the water terrace garden. It was interesting to think about the family that lives there dining outside with that view! It was a perfect end to a beautiful day.
I warn you, I have a tendency to take photos of minor architectural details and random trees (but that's for my mother). It turns out, I took almost as many pictures today as I did at the airshow, so, once again, pace yourself!
The days keep getting better!!
... So much heavier than we thought and so much power! Made your arm go wobbly trying to hold it out for her! We had to make her flap her wings and you could really feel the draft underneath.
We then held a Bald Eagle who only weighed in at 20 pounds but the same feeling of strength. He was gorgeous too. Funny but they weren't too interested in us, apparently there eyesight is so long range, things up close (like us) don't bother them. ...
Please Mind the Gap!
... The countdown is on to the Olympics and I can only imagine what it will be like then. We wandered to Big Ben, Downing Street where a protest was taking place, Parliament house, river Thames, London eye, Leicester square, all the monopoly names. Took the tube out to Knightsbridge and a visit for some retail therapy in Harrods. What a great day and if we never get here again I consider myself very lucky to have visited twice.

I'm after a lockable box for a Christmas gift for a pre-teen. Any ideas? Something she can lock up her journal and other bits and pieces from her younger sister.
I'm off to Northland in Melbourne this afternoon and I need to get her gift today
Posted 13 December 2012 - 12:51 PM
Officeworks- about $20 to $30 though for the size you would need for a journal

Quincey signs with Central Hockey League team
Oct 12, 2012, 11:30 AM EDT
Another day, another locked-out NHLer going to…the CHL?
After Phoenix defenseman David Schlemko announced he'd be playing for the Central Hockey League's Arizona Sundogs, the Denver Post reports Detroit blueliner Kyle Quincey will suit up for the Denver Cutthroats.
"Good friend of mine, and a real community-oriented guy. He wanted to give back to the community," Cutthroats head coach and ex-NHLer Derek Armstrong said of Quincey. "When I met him he was a kid in the NHL and we sat next to each other in the locker room in L.A. He told me last summer if this thing happened (NHL lockout) he would like to play for me.
"Of course, he wants to stay in shape and be ready when the (NHL) season starts, but it was really about giving back to the community and believing in what we're doing for the community here."
Quincey played three years in Colorado before being traded to the Wings at last February's trade deadline (he's since signed a two-year, $7.55 million deal with Detroit.)
Quincey still lives in Denver during the offseason and trained with the University of Denver hockey team this summer.
Now, about the CHL…
For the uninitiated, it's a 1o-team circuit with franchises in Texas (Texas Brahmas, Allen Americans), Arizona (Sundogs), Illinois (Bloomington Blaze, Quad City Mallards), Colorado (Denver Cutthroats), Missouri (Mavericks), South Dakota (Rapid City Rush), Oklahoma (Tulsa Oilers) and Kansas (Wichita Thunder).
Ex-CHL players to appear in NHL contests include Schlemko, Keith Aucoin, Andrew Desjardins and Joel Martin.

As hip-hop's influence has spread over the worldwide music landscape over the last twenty years or so, its artists have become the spokespeople for a variety of other forms of entertainment. As an example, the soundtrack to Madden NFL '09 features eleven hip-hop tracks, three of them (We Made It, Millionaire, and Let It Rock) featured previously inside the Booth. To further emphasize this point, Nintendo and B.o.B. have teamed up to create a promo single for their DS video game system; bringing out his electric guitar and drum set, the Atlanta native creates a classic rock-n-roll cut about how we've Created A Monster that, despite all the damage it has done, nobody wants to kill. B.o.B.'s debut album, The Adventures of B.o.B., drops next year.

As the nights draw in and the temperature begins to drop, many of us will be thinking of ways to warm up on the dark winter nights. However, few would think that remembering days gone by would be an effective way of keeping warm.
But research from the University of Southampton has shown that feeling nostalgic can make us feel warmer.
The study, published in the journal Emotion, investigated the effects of nostalgic feelings on reaction to cold and the perception of warmth. The volunteers, from universities in China and the Netherlands, took part in one of five studies.
The first asked participants to keep an account of their nostalgic feelings over 30 days. Results showed they felt more nostalgic on colder days. The second study put participants in one of three rooms: cold (20˚C), comfortable (24˚C) and hot (28˚C), and then measured how nostalgic they felt. Participants felt more nostalgic in the cold room than in the comfortable and hot rooms. The volunteers in the comfortable and hot rooms did not differ.
The third study, which was conducted online, used music to evoke nostalgia to see if it was linked to warmth. The participants who said the music made them feel nostalgic also tended to say that the music made them feel physically warmer.
The fourth study tested the effect of nostalgia on physical warmth by placing participants in a cold room and instructing them to recall either a nostalgic or ordinary event from their past. They were then asked to guess the temperature of the room. Those who recalled a nostalgic event perceived the room they were in to be warmer.
Study five again instructed participants to recall either a nostalgic or ordinary event from their past. They then placed their hand in ice-cold water to see how long they could stand it. Findings showed that the volunteers who indulged in nostalgia held their hand in the water for longer.
Dr Tim Wildschut, senior lecturer at the University of Southampton and co-author of the study, comments: "Nostalgia is experienced frequently and virtually by everyone and we know that it can maintain psychological comfort. For example, nostalgic reverie can combat loneliness. We wanted to take that a step further and assess whether it can also maintain physiological comfort.
"Our study has shown that nostalgia serves a homeostatic function, allowing the mental simulation of previously enjoyed states, including states of bodily comfort; in this case making us feel warmer or increasing our tolerance of cold. More research is now needed to see if nostalgia can combat other forms of physical discomfort, besides low temperature."
