"Okay, let's run it again from the same place," says our director Kevin Newbury. "Strong and wrong."
I've come to love that phrase. In rehearsals we have to give ourselves over to our impulses in the moment, to try different moods and reactions before we choose the best one. "The best idea wins," Kevin told us on the first day of rehearsals. Everyone is encouraged to contribute if they have an idea for the tone of a scene or a piece of stage business. But in order for an interesting dramatic moment to emerge, we have to be willing to take a chance that it might fail—"wrong"—and commit to it anyway—"strong." It frees us from the interference of our inner critics and editors and allows us to take our reactions to their most compelling place.

This week's tragic events in Oklahoma proved once again that disasters of large proportions can strike with little or no notice and it's important for everyone to have a plan in case of the worst. That goes for your pets too! There were gripping stories of pet rescues...and, some that sadly didn't turn out as well.
I'm happy to share some advice courtesy of Dr. Neil Shaw, chief medical officer of BluePearl Veterinary Partners in Tampa, Florida that will help all of us make sure our pets survive the worst.
• Make sure that your pets are current on their vaccinations. Pet shelters may require proof of vaccines.
• Have a current photograph.
• Keep a collar with identification on your pet and have a leash on hand to control your pet.
• Have a properly-sized pet carrier for each animal - carriers should be large enough for the animal to stand and turn around.
• Plan your evacuation strategy and don't forget your pet! Specialized pet shelters, animal control shelters, veterinary clinics and friends and relatives out of harm's way are ALL potential refuges for your pet during a disaster.
• If you plan to shelter your pet - work it into your evacuation route planning.
• Animals brought to a pet shelter are required to have: Proper identification collar and rabies tag, proper identification on all belongings, a carrier or cage, a leash, an ample supply of food, water and food bowls, any necessary medications, specific care instructions and news papers or trash bags for clean-up.
• Bring pets indoor well in advance of a storm - reassure them and remain calm.
• Pet shelters will be filled on first come, first served basis. Call ahead and determine availability.
• Walk pets on a leash until they become re-oriented to their home - often familiar scents and landmarks may be altered and pets could easily be confused and become lost. Also, downed power lines, reptiles brought in with high water and debris can all pose a threat for animals after a disaster.
• If pets cannot be found after a disaster, contact the local animal control office to find out where lost animals can be recovered. Bring along a picture of your pet if possible.
• After a disaster, animals can become aggressive or defensive - monitor their behavior.
• Don't forget your pet when preparing a family disaster plan.
• Proper identification including immunization records
• Ample supply of food and water
• A carrier or cage
• Medications
• Muzzle, collar and leash

This is a follow-on to my problem removing the fascia Fascia removal discussion
I've resorted to removing just enough of the shingles to allow me to remove the existing drip edge. It's become a bigger problem than I had hoped for. I've uncovered one area where there was no felt under the shingles No felt under shingles. I checked, no felt came up with the shingle I removed. That makes me think there are more felt-less square feet under my shingles.
So, how bad of a problem is that?
I was as careful as I could be when removing shingles, but, when I had to pry up the nails driven through the shingles above, a lot of holes were created in the shingles I was hoping to keep. Holes in remaining shingles. Can I still use those shingles if I plug the holes with roofing tar?
Now, this might be the biggest problem; the 5.5 feet of roofing closest to the eaves has some super sticky stuff under the shingles. It is near impossible to ply a shingle away from that backer. Sticky gunk cements the shingles to the roof. Does anyone have a suggestion on how I can break shingles free from that black cement?
In general, do you have any suggestions for any ways I could make this job easier and/or less destructive?
Thanks in advance.

Thanks Jaybee. Your comments give me the confidence to keep forging ahead. But, there is no doubt this part of the project is a real PITA! which goes to my other recent post "Kudos to the people who do this for a living".
I did have a pro roofer take a look and he said they'd do exactly what you said they'd do. They'd just rip it all off without attempting to preserve any existing. They need to get in and get out.
Thanks again.
SN, I'm sure I'm not the only one who's been following your activities and wondering how you have the patience and stamina to persevere given all the "surprises" you encounter.
Hang in there!
Thanks GardenSprite. There have been more "surprises" than I'd like. The most recent challenge with the black gunk cementing the shingles to the roof is really kicking my butt. I know my wife is getting tired of reminding me to come in the house and the whole project is taking me about 20 times longer than I estimated. Still, I wouldn't be doing it if I didn't get some sense of satisfaction from the work, so I'll "hang in there".
SN, I think you hit on one of the reasons why people enjoy working on their houses if they can, as opposed to hiring someone. But not only is there satisfaction from the actual work, it's from the problem solving and confidence you gain in every project, especially from the surprises. It's like a boot camp for homeowners. Sometimes it turns into more like special forces training for homeowners.
It's occurred to me that the experiences of DIYers could be interesting subjects for books, not necessarily instructional ones but humorous ones.
Peter Mayle has included anecdotes on remodeling in Provence vs. England in his series of books on his life in France. The stories about French contractors would make any homeowner cringe.This message has been edited. Last edited by: GardenSprite,
Another unpleasant surprise knocked me backward today. I finally reached the point where I can nail the new, replacement, shingles in place.
Before I purchased the replacement shingles, I called the contractor who re-shingled my house around seven years ago. He told me what type of shingles he installed (Certainteed, Landmark (Architectural)) and he told me the name of the distributor he used.
I went to the distributor and told him the brand and color of the shingles I needed.
As I nailed my first replacement shingle in place, I realized that the replacement shingles are the wrong size They are longer, wider, and much thicker than the originals.
I loaded the newly purchased shingles into my car and headed back to the distributor with the intention of returning the shingles. At the distributor, I was told that Certainteed no longer sells the smaller (standard dimensions) shingles.
After checking with a few other distributors, I am convinced that the standard shingle size (36" long) is no longer available.
Unless someone on this site has a better idea, I will have to (re)purchase the shingles that are the wrong size. I'll need to cut about 1/2" off the width so that the reveal of the newly purchased shingles will align with the existing shingles.This message has been edited. Last edited by: SturdyNail,
I sense a Chicken Soup for DIYers in the making. Seriously, you could write a book about your experiences.
Trying to follow your logic, architectural are the easiest shingles to lay in my option. The is no tabs to line up like on 3, tab shingles.
There is no "seam" that has to line up.
Just lay the shingle and cut the last one in the row shorter. As long as your butt joints are at least 6" apart you will be fine. Architectural shingles can be cut anyplace in the shingle to get the butts to not line up with the one above or below it.
I've also not witnessed shingles from the same manufacturer with the same style name and info being changed so there a different size or thickness. Sound like you may have the wrong shingles.
I'm with Joe - wondering if it's something like your original shingles were a 30-year product and the replacements were 40 or 50 year rated. That would make for a thicker shingle.
The only messing around with size changes I've run into is I've found some brands that are 'metric' shingles - making them longer than 36". Usually the only problem with replacement shingles is a color change due to time and different manufacturing lots.
All that aside though, any slight difference in length or height can be easily compensated by changing your overlap. Butt edges on architectural shingles are impossible to see from the ground so if you have several rows of longer shingles, no-one will ever know. It should be that the worst thing you'll have to is to cut the last shingle in each run a little shorter to weave it into the pattern.
DOH! I know why the thickness of the new shingle was so much greater than the thickness of the "old" shingle.
I was dealing with two shingles stuck together
Funny thing is, I took the shingle(s) back to the distributor to show them how different the thickness of new shingle is. Three guys working the counter totally missed the fact that they were looking at two shingles stuck together.
I might have an excuse for not noticing that the shingles were stuck together; this is the first time I've done any roofing. Still, I'm embarrassed that I did not notice that the shingles were stuck together. But, the guys working at the distributor; what's their excuse?
So, Jaybee and Joe, I agree that the differences in length of the architectural shingles doesn't matter much. The width, however, does make a difference.
If I align the tops of the keyways, the bottom edge of the new shingle drops 1/2" below the bottom edge of the old shingle (see the attached image).
I tried taking 1/2" off the bottom edge of the new shingle, but the cut edge was a little too raggedy. So, I said, "the heck with it. I need to move on.", and just aligned the factory bottom edge of the new with the bottom edge of the old. That didn't come out very well. The top 1/2" of the keyway ended up under the shingle above it--which created a noticible space.
So, once again, unless someone has a better suggestion, I'm going to trim the bottom edge of the new shingle so that the tops of the keyways align.
Does anyone have a good tip on how to make a nice, clean, crisp, cut though the length of the architectural edge of the shingles?
Thanks again!
Just align the bottom of the shingle.
Aligning the bottom seems like the best way to do. I've reread your description several times now and unless that 1/2" difference makes for a huge difference in the shadow lines I can't see where it will be much of a problem. It does sound like you have a totally different shingle though.
I would try to avoid cutting the bottom edge - even a perfect cut will leave that edge more exposed to water damage over time. However - to cut it just turn the shingle over, use a straight edge and a razor knife, score part way through and just bend & break off the edge.
I called Certainteed's customer support to make sure I had the right replacement shingle.
The existing roof is Certainteed Landmark. The replacement shingles I bought are Certainteed Landmark. The difference is that, shortly after my roof was done (around 7 years ago), Certainteed changed from the customary 12" x 36" format to a larger, metric, format (translates to around 13 3/8" x 38 3/4").
The guy from Certainteed thought I should trim the bottom so the tops of the keyways align.
I didn't want to cut the bottom edge. It is a huge pain. I did put up a few courses where I didn't cut the bottom edge, but I didn't like the way it looked.
OK Joe and Jaybee, I've come around to your way of thinking regarding avoiding cutting the bottom edge of the shingle panel.
It adds so much time to trim the bottom edge. Since the bottom edge is double layered in sections, I can't just score the panel and snap it. I have to cut through all the material.
I am concerned about the open "pockets" above the keyways. The newly purchased shingles have a 5 1/2" reveal, but the existing shingles only have a 5" reveal. So, when I tuck a new shingle up and under an existing shingle, a 1/2" "pocket" is formed.
It seems that water or snow could get "held" in those pockets. Also, that causes the shingle sitting above and over the 1/2" pocket to have unsupported material. That unsupported material will be susceptible to cracking if anyone walks on that part of the roof.
Thanks again for your help.
I think that small 1/2" area will not cause any problems. The nice thing about architectural shingles is that they are one solid piece with no cuts. The only "problem" I can see with matching up the metric shingles to your existing ones is whatever slight visual difference you can see from the ground.
My roofing saga continues...
There is a noticeable gap where the rake drip edge meets the eave drip edge.
The rake drip edge is closer to the fascia trim further up toward the peak, but it did drift away at the eave.
Is that gap a potential problem area?
Can you think of a way I could make that look better?
By the way, I know that the shingle extends too far over the drip edge--I just haven't had time to trim it back yet.
Thanks in advance.This message has been edited. Last edited by: SturdyNail,
Hard to see from that picture but If I had to guess it almost looks like someone installed that drip edge over the old layer of shingles and set it against the over hanging shingles instead of tight to the rake board.
And left the other one to short.
Either way I see no way to pretty it up without removing the drip caps and reinstalling the right way.
Thanks Joe,
There are no shingles under the rake drip edge. I'm the one who put it on.
The problem is that, higher up the rake, the drip edge is closer to 1/8" from the rake board (which is the spacing that was recommended to me), but that gap grows to 1/2 - 3/4" by the time it reaches the eave (the gap you see in the picture). I couldn't get it any closer without wrinkling the drip edge.

Simply adorable! This dress is simple but so cute! The 10 year old cousin I bought it for loves it. I think it's the perfect dress for a young girl in between frilly baby dresses and grown up dresses! February 6, 2013
adorable!!!! I ordered this dress in wisteria with an ivory sash for my 11 year old to wear in my May 2012 wedding! It is perfect for her age its cute without being too little girlish and she looks amazing in it. You cant beat the price either! I can not wait to see my princess all glammed out in this dress on our wedding day! If your daughter or Jr bridesmaid is picky and a lil tomboy too I definitely recommend trying this dress! July 25, 2011
Doesn't come with sash This is a very cute dress! One thing that is very misleading about it is that it does not come with the sash. You have to buy it seperately which I think is very misleading from the picture. May 17, 2011
Nice Dress! I bought this for my 11 year old daughter. We fell in love with it at the store. It is very flattering and not too grown up looking! Very appropriate for a young lady. April 1, 2011

Lipozene vs Dr Oz Garcinia Cambogia Extract
With the latest health craze of losing weight, there are numerous products in the market that purport to support you in this. However, like any other product that your body will use, you need to approach most of the available products with caution; know the advantages and disadvantages, adverse effects, price, the best manufacturers and whether you are viable to use the product.
For example if you are young healthy person you can go for products that work to increase your metabolism. However, if you have hypertension or cardiovascular disease you might need to approach such products with care and only with your doctor's approval.
Nevertheless, there is a product for each and every person out there. Two of the much talked about weight loss products are Garcinia cambogia and Lipozene.
Garcinia cambogia
Garcinia cambogia was discovered by the people of Southern Asia and parts of Africa centuries ago. It is a small pumpkin-like fruit. In India it is used to make curries whereas in other parts it is used to treat stomach complications. Today, Garcinia cambogia extract is one of the most popular weight loss products in the world. In fact, it also helped biggest looser winner – Rachel Frederickson. Read the full article - Did Rachel Frederickson Went Too Far On The Biggest Loser By Losing More Than 60% Of Her Body Weight?
It has several benefits: it is all natural and works with the body to enhance its metabolism with little change to your lifestyle. It also acts to fill you up making you become hungry less often and also eat less food.
Garcinia cambogia is also a mood elevator as it elevates levels of serotonin in the body thus many emotional eaters are saved from emotional feeding.
The downfall of this product is that there are too many of Garcinia products that claim to help in weight loss. This has led to people out to rip you off with poor quality products that achieve little or no results.
All in all Garcinia cambogia is known as the weight loss product of the century as it is effective in weight loss.
This is possibly one of the new kids in the block for weight loss. However, Lipozene has gained some popularity since its conception as a weight loss product. It is produced from a plant grown in Japan, China and Eastern Asia known as Konjac which contains a fibre called glucomannan. Glucomannan makes you feel full thus you eat less. This is one of the benefits of Lipozene as a weight loss product. It is also known to regulate the blood LDL cholesterol. However, this product has its own disadvantages which included a distended stomach, highly fluctuating blood sugar and nausea for some people. Even though it is not an easy to swallow pill, Lipozene has been known to be an effective weight loss product.
Lipozene and Garcinia cambogia are in the same price range, are taken minutes before meals, are natural plant extracts and are effective weight loss products. However, whereas Lipozene has side effects that some people find uncomfortable, pure Garcinia cambogia extract do not produce such or any side effects. Therefore, as a weight watcher, consider the products that will work for you. Personally, I would recommend Garcinia cambogia as I hate anything that makes me even slightly uncomfortable.

Over the weekend Julie and I had to venture out-of-town to see a sick relative. Our kids, like most, were capable of sticking out the waiting room at the hospital for only so long. They got their fill of the complementary toys, puzzles and games--and eventually they were done.
Julie and I were proud of them, but we knew that we had to find a place--a cheap place--for them to have fun. Enter that city's abundant parks and playgrounds! In all seriousness, if you're on a budget and you need to find some out-of-the-house recreation--try a playground!
Better yet, if you can find one--and we were blessed with one over the weekend--try a wooden fortress-like park! These, I believe, are going away because governments can't keep up with their maintenance. But, to this city's credit, they kept up this park and it was an immediate hit for the kids. They ran all over--made friends--chased each other all over--and were able to expend some of that energy that had to be uncapped after their boring hospital visit.

How did you get into Artist Relations?
I was born and raised in the beautiful city of Chicago to immigrant parents from Mexico who love a good fiesta. Almost all my early memories are filled with those of family parties. Baptisms, birthdays, saint's days, First Communions, Confirmations, Quinceñeras, weddings, barbecues at random forest preserves and at Lake Michigan after my dad's baseball games almost every Sunday in the summer. Oh, and of course, your usual suspects: 4th of July, Dia de los Muertos/Halloween, Thanksgiving, Christmas, New years and Easter.

The email was titled "STILL ALIVE" in capital letters. The email consisted of this single message:
Can't think of anything else to write.
Earlier reports from my best friend in Israel described the two, one 90 and the other almost 80 years old and still active, getting short notice to get out of their buildings when the sirens go off as rockets coming out of the Hamas controlled Gaza Strip and landing in Tel Aviv and Rishion LeZion where they live over 65km away.
We had our morning wake-up call today. It was a rather odd one. The siren went off so we got up and I went out. My husband refused to get our of the bed during all of this, rarely leaving the apartment.
I was joined by our neighbour and we waited to hear the BOOM of the Iron Dome, but none came. We heard something in the distance and waited.
…Suddenly, the siren went again and there was a very nasty BOOM, which had nothing to do with the interceptors, and our neighbours said 'Oh! That one fell somewhere.' We heard the sirens in the neighbouring areas going off as well, and then some more booms in the distance, so they got the others that came over–presumably. Would know more if I turned on the TV, but simply cannot do it.
Yesterday was fairly quiet–only two or three sirens. 'They' said we were going to get it last night, but we didn't, apart from one around 9:00pm.
And so it goes.
Word of a ceasefire gave everyone hope, to which she emailed:
Still here.
Don't trust the bastards.
She was right. That morning, the news reports that Hamas fired 50 rockets into Israel and Israel responded with airstrikes. The rockets reached Gan Yavne, Tel Aviv, and Rishon LeZion. (more…)

Psychology is the study of human behaviour and mental life. Therefore, it is relevant to every aspect of human life and there are psychologists working areas as varied as health, education, business and crime.
Psychology is often essential to apply science to everyday life. It is no good developing an effective anti-viral cleaner if you cannot persuade the people working in hospitals to use it effectively. If you want to prevent people committing crimes you need to understand what motivates them to commit a crime.
Our BPS accredited programme at Cardiff Met will give you a thorough grounding in all the key areas of psychology: developmental, social, cognitive biological and individual differences as well as the research skills to explore these areas.
In your final year you will get a marvellous opportunity to apply these skills in one of the widest ranges of options in a BSc programme in the UK. For those of you who develop an interest in forensic or health psychology you can stay with us an start your career in these areas by following a BPS accredited MSc in either of these subjects.

The story of a blind man who was taken off a plane and the way his fellow passengers reacted to his treatment has made national headlines after a US Airways flight was canceled on Wednesday night.
Service dogs are allowed on planes, but they must be stowed under a seat during takeoff. Albert Rizzi says his bench seat in the back of the plane didn't make that possible, and although empty seats could have provided an easy solution, he was booted from his Philadelphia to Islip, N.Y. flight.
"He's my lifeline," Rizzi said of his service dog, Doxy. "He's my best buddy. He's my independence."
Rizzi is blind, and Doxy is always at his side; however, he said the experience he had with US Airways staff was among the worst the pair had ever endured.
"My comfort level with my blindness was totally rocked," Rizzi admitted. "I felt like a useless, unappreciated loser."
After 45 minutes on the tarmac, Doxy became agitated and was lying in the aisle. That's when the flight attendant became aggressive, according to Rizzi.
"The flight attendant comes over and says, 'I need you to get that dog stowed again,'" he recalled. "She comes back and gets in my face again. 'I told you that dog needs to be under a seat or we are not taking off.'"
Next thing Rizzi knew, he and Doxy were back at the gate -- but not before passengers stood up for him. One of the passengers told Fox 9 News he was so concerned about Rizzi that even before the revolt took place, he was ready to get off the plane, rent a car and drive Rizzi and Doxy to New York himself.
Yet, the passengers' version of events doesn't mesh with the airline's rendition. In a statement, US Airways defended its decision. The company's response can be read in full below.
US Airways transports more than 80 million customers each year and ensures that all customers, including those with disabilities, are treated with dignity and respect. We're particularly sensitive to those customers who travel with service animals and we partner with Assistance Dogs International (ADI), an organization that trains and places assistance dogs around the world. US Airways employees volunteer to travel with and work with assistance dogs in training to help them prepare for travel with disabled partners. Over the past 10 years, US Airways employees have participated in transports everywhere from California to Croatia.
In this instance, Mr. Rizzi became disruptive and refused to comply with crew member instructions when the flight attendant asked him to secure his service dog at his feet. As a result of his disruptive behavior, the crew returned to the gate and removed Mr. Rizzi and service dog from the flight. The flight eventually canceled and we transported Mr. Rizzi, his service dog, and the rest of our passengers on the flight to ISP by bus.
We apologize to the customers of the flight for the inconvenience. We are continuing to investigate the incident.
When Fox 9 News turned to Jennifer Dunnam, president for the National Federation of the Blind in Minnesota, to get her take on the incident, she admitted she "would not be surprised if this story was completely true."
"It just keeps coming up over and over," she explained.
According to Dunnam, guide dogs get leeway in the airport and on planes, but she says more education is needed to protect those using service dogs.
"There have been strides made, but there have been instances where people's lack of knowledge about blindness have come into play," she said.
As for Rizzi, he said he is just grateful the other passengers had his back.
"When I heard those people coming off the plane saying what they said, I felt like a million dollars and more humble than I have ever felt in my entire life," he said.

Paige's Q & A
Who's your favorite sports team, and why?
If I had to pick a sports team as my favorite it would for sure have to be the Minnesota Vikings even though they aren't good (at all).
What's your favorite movie quote?
I don't have a particular quote that comes to mind but I can quote the entire "Mean Girls" movie.
What's your favorite video game, and could you kick our butts at it?
The only video gaming I've ever done is Mario Kart but I'm not sure if that's even relevant. And I know my grandmother could kick my butt on it so I'm sure anyone can.
Piercings/Tattoos (How many? Where?)
I don't have any tramp stamps because someone once told me, "why put a bumper sticker on a Ferrari". Totally kidding though, I see myself more as a VW Bug, unique and a little weird.
What's the most embarrassing song on your iPod?
Oh gosh, all my Hannah Montana and Miley Cyrus music. If someone were to go through my iPod they would think it belonged to a 13 year-old girl.
What's your best party trick?
The only party advice I have is taking EmergnC packs before and after drinking. You will be hangover free unless you're a little too outrageous where a hospital visit is needed.
What's the most memorable pick-up line you've ever heard?
I think pick-up lines are kinda lame and actually steer my attention far away from the person who said it to me. Instead the best "pick-up" line would be humor. A sense of humor is the most attractive thing to me.
What's the worst job you've ever had?
I'm not sure if this is considered a job but when I was little my brother used to pay me 5 cents to pick out the green and yellow Skittles from his pack.
What's the most dangerous thing you've ever done?
Skydiving for sure. But then again I would go right now if I was given the chance. You only live once and if I'm going to die skydiving that will be a hell of a good departure.
It's 4AM after a crazy night out – what are we eating?
Ramen!! I'm not cheap and I'm no longer a college kid but damn do I love Ramen noodles.
What's the strangest thing in your fridge right now?
Well most people probably wouldn't think it's strange but that nasty green looking Naked juice, which is not mine. I refuse to drink something that looks like it should be coming out the other end.
What's the naughtiest thing you've ever done in public?
I was in California a couple weeks ago and going to the beach. I had a big hoodie on and didn't think anyone was anywhere near me. Out of no where I burped so loud it sounded like it came from a 40 year-old man. When I turned around, this young guy was 5 feet away from me and laughing. I was so embarrassed.
What do you feel sexiest wearing?
Although I love wearing baggy sweatpants and a big tee-shirt it is fun getting all dolled up in a tight dress with a good set of heels.
Tell us a joke.
Uhhh I suck at jokes!!! The only one I can think of is "why did the chicken cross the road" and seriously thats how lame my jokes are. Sarcasm though, I am fluent in that.

A-line Taffeta Gown with One Shoulder Detail Style WG3327 31 34
Loved it! I went to David's Bridal with a different dress in mind that I thought would be "the one." My consultant pulled this dress, and reminded me that I had saved it as one of "my favorites." At first glance, it seemed quite simple, but I kept an open mind. When I tried it on and looked in the mirror, I loved it !! The one shoulder is so elegant!! I do, however, recommend adding some glitz to the waist line to add that "little something extra." February 22, 2014
Loved my Dress. I was a great compromise to get what i wanted and to please him to have at-least one sleeve. November 19, 2013
Perfect This was the first dress I tried on and it was perfect! Cannot wait to wear it for my big day! July 6, 2013
I can't wait to wear this!!! I just bought this dress today. I am over the moon excited to wear this dress on my wedding day. I am HUGE on top, and have a really hard time finding dresses or things that look good. This dress looks like it was made for me. I did have to order a larger size so it will fit in the bust, and then get the waist tailored down. I usually wear a size 0-2 jean, and I am a 32DDD. So I bought this in a size 8. This dress is beautiful. It is very comfortable. I will be able to dance all night long, bend over, and such without having to worry about "the girls" falling out. I will post a pic of the dress from the wedding day, because the cell phone pics I have don't even do this dress justice. April 20, 2013

FO: No Slouch Socks
Yarn: Fleece Artist Sea Wool from weaverknits
The pattern is so simple that it's hardly worth writing up. Nevertheless, here it is if you like. I've always had trouble keeping hand knit socks from slouching; thus, a slouch-less sock was the goal for this pair. I selected this stitch pattern because cable ribs are notoriously rigid.
The yarn choice couldn't be better. I wish I could knit an entire wardrobe out of Sea Wool. It's unlike any yarn I've ever used and I am certainly a convert. The yarn content is 70% merino wool/30% SeaCell. The SeaCell makes the yarn extra soft and shiny. Sea Wool has its drawbacks, however: the yardage (350 m) may not accommodate larger feet, it's a bit expensive ($25/pair) and some of the colors are a bit, um, what's the word… ugly? Not to worry, Fleece Artist offers a handful of very nice semi-solid colors too.
Stay tuned for some socks inspired by Kristy and a meme (I haven't forgotten, I promise!)
9 comments so far
These look so fabulous and cozy!
Great pattern – one can always use slouchless socks :)
Oh those look wonderfully cozy! The Sea Wool is definitely on my list to try.
Beautiful cables and ribs! Those aren't going to fall down!!
and that Drunken Bee sock up on the next post is gorgeous – have fun knitting the other one!
They turned out great!
those are great – simple yet elegant!
Oh I covet the Sea Wool sooo… But I agree, some of the colors are not so nice, but others – divine. :)
I love the rustic look of these. Perfect for Fall.
The socks look both beautiful and functional. How great is that? I haven't had a chance to touch any Sea Wool yet– I'm curious!
Awesome socks!!

The oldest ski resort in New Hampshire, Jackson provides a huge choice of terrain amongst a welcoming, friendly New England atmosphere. Attitash, Wildcat and Black Mountain ski areas are all within a 20-minute drive of Jackson. The friendly, un-crowded New Hampshire slopes make Jackson a great choice for the beginner, though skiers of all abilities will find exhilarating challenges. This is also the number one cross-country ski destination in Eastern USA, surrounded by over 150 kilometres of trails for a wide range of abilities. Off the slopes, Jackson has lots to offer. White Mountain National Forest is full of breathtaking sights and Jackson and the surrounding White Mountain towns are steeped in history. Nearby North Conway offers countless bargains in its tax-free shopping area. Jackson's après ski is a laid-back, family-friendly affair, making this a great choice for anyone skiing with children.
* Based on Wildcat Mountain Ski Resort
A third of Jackson's Black Mountain pistes are graded green and there is a separate beginner section on the mountain. The local Snow Sports School offers group and private lessons for all abilities, plus specialised cross-country skiing lessons. With gentle progression pistes, both here and at nearby Attitash, this is a good destination for beginners.
With almost half of the Attitash runs graded blue, this is a perfect resort for intermediates. The smooth, enjoyable cruising is accompanied by some wonderful views. The closer Black Mountain also offers plenty of terrain, and more aggressive intermediates can move on to the testing slopes of Wildcat.
Advanced skiers and snowboarders can enjoy black and double black diamond pistes from the top to the bottom of Black Mountain. The quiet slopes offer fresh powder long after snowfall, and venturing off-piste will provide some tough tests. Nearby Wildcat Mountain offers more thrilling off-piste terrain, though a guide is mandatory. Attitash has a superb new freestyle park, located minutes from Jackson.
Black Mountain has a great range of childcare facilities. Day care is available for non-skiing children and there is a group tuition programme for children aged 4 to 12. Nearby Attitash and Wildcat also have good childcare and tuition, though they have fewer beginner slopes to learn on.
Black Mountain tends to be closed outside of traditional ski season. Nearby Wildcat and Attitash, however, have extensive snowmaking, superb grooming and plenty of shaded slopes. As a result, skiing and snowboarding is often possible during November and April in these two resorts. Those willing to make a short drive will find Jackson a good choice for an out-of-season ski break.
Jackson's après ski atmosphere is quintessentially New England and a warm, laid-back welcome will greet you in all of Jackson's pubs and restaurants. Base Lodge is a great starting point for a lively, late afternoon drink. Lostbo Pub here is also very popular and offers live music and dancing. Down into Jackson village, the vibrant Wildcat Tavern offers more live music and is particularly lively on weekends. Just ten minutes away is the historic Red Parka. The pub has a strong ski theme and a fun, friendly atmosphere. There is an event every night here, ranging from live music to comedy to classic films. The Red Parka often stays open into the small hours for those looking to party.
233 km (approximately 3 hours and 15 minutes transfer). British Airways flies direct to Boston from London Heathrow.

Once a week, I review a movie that I had previously not viewed. It could be a new one or an old one. It does not matter. What does matter is that you read and enjoy this simple blog post from a movie geek.
Last week's movie of choice was Little Miss Sunshine. The movie, which stars Steve Carell, is an indie flick that ended up being a box office success. How big of one do you ask? The movie cost about eight million dollars to make and grossed over 100 million dollars worldwide.
The title of the movie relates to a beauty pageant that Olive Hoover (Abigail Breslin) is picked to appear in. Her family is a very dysfunctional one with her father Richard (Greg Kinnear) trying to sell his self-help idea as a book and her brother Dwayne (Paul Dano) is taking a vow of silence.
Her grandfather Edwin Hoover (Alan Arkin) is teaching her the dance routine she is to use at pageants, which is a bit more, um, racy than a 7-year-old should be performing. The mother, Sheryl (Toni Collette) is trying to hold everything together while keeping an eye on her brother Frank (Carell) who has just attempted suicide.
The family is all packing up and heading to California for this pageant in a small Volkswagen van. Not one of them wants to go, outside of Olive, and their attitudes reflect this as the trip begins.
You would say this sounds like your typical "dysfunctional family takes a trip, hilarity ensues" type of movie but it is much deeper than that. The message this movie conveys is the only consistent thing in life is family.
The way the members of this family realize that is what keeps you so engaged throughout the movie. It is a dark comedy, with language being the key reason behind the R-rating but it is still worth a watch due to the overall theme.
Carell is the most recognizable actor in the movie but he becomes just another character as the story moves along. You fall in love with the grandfather by the end of the movie, despite his major flaws.
I always looked at Little Miss Sunshine as one of those movies that looked too deep for me to sit down for an hour and try to figure out what was going on. I am glad I finally came around to sit down for that hour to watch this film. I suggest you should as well.

MADISON, WI (WSAU-PR) - Wisconsin received formal approval from the Centers for Medicare and Medicaid Services (CMS) for renewal of the SeniorCare Waiver until 2015. SeniorCare, Wisconsin's prescription drug program launched in 2002, provides affordable, comprehensive prescription drug coverage to thousands of Wisconsin seniors.
Governor Scott Walker says, "I am pleased to announce SeniorCare's renewal to Wisconsin's parents, grandparents, friends, and neighbors, who depend on it, It's important for Wisconsin's seniors to be able to get the prescription drugs they need at an affordable price."
In addition, SeniorCare now includes Medication Therapy Management (MTM). This is a new covered service for SeniorCare members. Medication therapy management creates a partnership between pharmacist, patient, and physician to better coordinate the delivery of medications.
SeniorCare continues to be a popular and successful program, with a simple enrollment process, a $30 annual enrollment fee, income-based deductibles, and co-payments of $5 for generic drugs or $15 for brand drugs. Since its inception, more than 152,000 Wisconsin seniors have purchased prescription drugs through SeniorCare.
SeniorCare prescription drug assistance program is available to all seniors 65 years of age or older with an income at or below $22,340 per year for an individual or $30,260 for a married couple. About 75 percent of Wisconsin seniors enrolled in SeniorCare are women.
Although the majority of SeniorCare members have been enrolled for two years or less, 11 percent are charter members and have been enrolled since the start of the program 10 years ago.
Out of pocket costs for SeniorCare members decreased due to a combination of factors:increased use of generic drugs, increased rebates from drug companies, and changes in reimbursement to pharmacists.
Many seniors are enrolled in both SeniorCare and a Medicare Part D drug plan or private insurance. Almost 40 percent of those enrolled in SeniorCare have some other type of prescription drug coverage as well, and SeniorCare coordinates benefits with these programs.
For most Wisconsin seniors, SeniorCare provides a better value than Medicare Part D. However, Part D is better for the lowest income members who qualify for federal subsidies and for members with high drug costs.
According to the Governor's office, the state Fiscal Year 2011 costs of SeniorCare were $108.9 million, divided among rebates from drug manufacturers (40%), the federal government (21%), members (19%), state funds (13.6%), and other insurance (6.7%).
The SeniorCare waiver is estimated to lower total net Medicaid spending by $146 million in 2011, of which $53 million will be state savings.
For more information about SeniorCare, call the SeniorCare hotline at (800) 657-2038 or go to dhs.wisconsin.gov/seniorcare.

Hi! I just came into this part and wanted to see if there is anyone out there from North Carolina? Caitlyn and I are from Southport, NC. I would love to meet someone from this state.
Shannon Mommy to Caitlyn Elizabeth 30 weeks, 3 days born (8/26/2003) early due to PE, IUGR, HELLP syndrome, premature rupture of membranes


text: I have mentioned on more than one occasion that I am a big fan of Clive Owen but I have another confession to make. I like romantic comedies or rom-coms. Let me clarify, I don't like all rom-com's, but if it's really well done, they can be excellent. I'm not saying that Words and Pictures is going to be excellent or that it's even well done, I'm just saying I don't automatically disqualify a movie because of its genre. Everyone on the same page now? Good.

True or false: Michigan's Upper Peninsula is among the top five regions of the country with the most bars per capita?Michigan based actor Jeff Daniels certainly gave that impression the other night when he was quizzed by late-night TV jokester David Letterman.Mr. Letterman certainly gave the impression that he had never been here as he had trouble identifying the Grand Hotel, referring to it as the "old hotel" during his pithy exchange with Mr. Daniels.Mr. Letterman did know that the U.P. was linked to Wisconsin. Yes, the land mass in the U.P. on its western most edge segues nicely into Cheese-head county where the Yoopers are more loyal to the Packers than the Lions, but then the rest of the state would be too if we had a choice.The late-night guy also wanted to know about "a commercial campaign about vacationing in Michigan." Hey Big Dave-boy: it's called Pure Michigan lug head."I'm always curious about the Upper Peninsula," he went on. "What do they do up there?" he wondered.Mr. Daniels didn't miss a beat, "You can drink. They do it very well…and they are proud of it" along with the fishing, hunting, and wandering around in the woods which consumes 84% of the land above the bridge.His emphasis on all the drinking fits in nicely with the stereo-type that all the trolls (those living below the bridge) have of our brothers and sisters north of us. Obviously what else is there to do in addition to using the 3,000 miles of groomed snowmobile paths which is the equivalent of driving from Orlando to Seattle?But turns out the answer to the question above may surprise you. The U.P. and Michigan are no where to be found on the top list of most bars per person.The "honor", if you chose to call it that goes to?The envelop please: North Dakota with 1,620 watering holes per capita. In fact Michigan is ranked 23rd behind Wisconsin which is number three, which is why the Yoopers love that state, and even Minnesota, Indiana, and Illinois have more joints than Michigan's 6,104 per person.Now if you seek a pleasant state around you where it's dryer than Death Valley, head on over to Virginia where its one bar for every 64,000 tea-toddling residents.Say ya to da U.P. hey!

The West High School Robotics Team took ninth place in an 84-team division at the VEX World Championships on April 17 in Anaheim.
Students Maxwell Gibbard, 17, Shiv Khanna, 15, Jordan Moore, 15, and Huzaifa Abdul-Rehman, 15, won eight of their 10 matches. They are advised by teacher Randy Moehnke.
"This is our fifth time at the world championships," Moehnke said. "This is the best they've done, that we've done at a world championship."
Teams pitted their robots against one another, trying to move and stack more bags filled with plastic foam pellets in a 12-square-foot arena.
Solid construction enabled the West High team to amass a winning record this year.
"Typically at a tournament problems are popping up, and this robot had no problems," Moehnke said.
West didn't walk away with a trophy from the tournament, which drew 420 teams from around the world, but team members received individual medals for participating.
As Gibbard is the only senior on the team — the other three are sophomores — Moehnke hopes to build upon their experience this year at future tournaments.
"I'm expecting great things from these guys in the next few years," he said.
Las Positas student wins nationwide scholarship
A Tracy resident attending Las Positas College, Kris Adhikari, was recently selected to an elite group of community college students throughout the United States, winning a $4,500 scholarship.
Adhikari plans to transfer from the Livermore community college to University of California, Berkeley, in the fall.
Based on his GPA and leadership, he was named one of 20 members of the 2013 All-USA Community College Academic Team. He was also declared a New Century Scholar.
Both awards are sponsored by Coca-Cola, USA Today, Follett Higher Education Group and Phi Theta Kappa, an honor society for students pursuing associate degrees.
Adhikari, a graduate of West High School, is a student trustee of the Chabot-Las Positas Community College District and has participated in several college clubs and organizations.
Insurance student granted scholarship
A college sophomore from Tracy, Renee Collins, recently received a $5,000 scholarship to continue her studies at Indiana State University.
The award was provided by the Spencer Educational Foundation, which supports the study of insurance and risk management.
Former resident makes game show appearance
A Kimball High graduate will appear on the game show "Let's make a Deal" on Tuesday, April 30.
Shakeel Carpenter, 19, will be a contestant on the show, which airs at 9 a.m. on the local CBS channel.
Carpenter was a member of Kimball's first graduating class in 2012.

Free List of Non Chexsystems Banks in Arkansas.
Guaranteed Bank Account in Arkansas
Click Below for your Brand New Checking Account. Not a Prepaid Card. This is a Real Bank Account. Become Paypal Verified, Pay Bills with your Account Numbers & Debit Card. Lots of Perks with Guaranteed Approval Regardless of Chexsystems, Telecheck or Bad Credit.
No Credit Check! No Chexsystems Check! Receive your new banking package within 5-7 days! Overdraft Protection!
Chexsystems is just like a Credit Reporting Agency.
The only difference here is that the bank reported you to Chexsystems instead of the 3 credit bureaus.
Chexsystems is used by 90% of the banks in the United States. It is basically a bank reporting agency that tells the new bank you are applying to if you are a risk or not. If you are on chexsystems list you are basically black listed from getting a new bank account for the next 5 years!
People who are in chexsystems got there because the either bounced a check, overdrafts, insufficient funds among other reasons.
If you are one of those people your bank probably gave you a good 30 days to clear this mess up and you ignored them.
By ignoring your bank's request to put back the money into your account and pay their fees they decided to report you to chexsystems. That is the only way they can get you to pay up or make you suffer. When you go to apply for another bank account if that bank runs a chexsystems report on you and 90% do, you will be denied by that bank because of your past banking history.
This sadly, will haunt you for the next 5 years. Your name will be on chexsystems for 5 entire years.
If the banks above cannot help you please bookmark our site and come back or why not simply apply for our bank account now knowing you are already approved.
Second chance bank accounts are hard to find. The bank we are working with will give you that second chance. They will give you an account number and routing number. And they will in the very near future let you upgrade your bank account to a Premier Account which gives you a checkbook.

Comments On Apr 09, 2010:I ordered this because it came up under a search for ATV tools on the tires and wheels. It would take nothing short of a jackhammer to get this tool into the back of a tire rim on a set of paddle tires. Not trail rated. However... I would give this tool not only a 5, but a 10 if I owned a dirt bike. Tires on dirt bikes compress with the bare hand so it must be perfect for that very thing. Don't buy this if you have an ATV. Better yet... invest a little and take a spare tire on a cheap rim for both the front and the back. hey, if you can haul around a four wheel, you can surely make room for two more wheels. Buy the tool for a friend though...

A 90-year-old woman is the victim of a terrifying home invasion. Most of what they stole can be replaced except for one thing and she desperately wants to get that back. This happened while she was sleeping, and that is a scary thought. A stranger is inside your home while your eyes are closed and you have no idea. It may not look like anything menacing happened inside this Lincoln Park home but someone broke into this place late Saturday night. They took some of the blocks along the house. This crook improvised, using stones to pry their way into an elderly woman's personal space. And grabbed a bunch of grandma's belongings. What did they take? Jewelry, money and her sense of security. At almost 90 years old, she was getting her rest while some ungrateful thugs were rummaging through what is hers. And this lady's family cannot help but think what if. "If she woke up when they were here, I don't know what would have happened," said the woman's daughter. "I don't know if these people are professional or amateurs or whatever. Amateurs are the ones you got to worry about." Still shaken and not ready to show her face. Here is what she told us about what happened. "It was very devastating, I'll tell you, and nobody should have to go through that. Nobody. To know that somebody has been in your home, I just think God was watching over me."And her loved ones are, too. Installing a security system in addition to mounting alarms on the windows and doors. Most of what the thieves stole was costume jewelry, but her wedding ring, they took it. "I want that ring back very bad.""We hope somebody has a conscious or a pawn shop turns it up and be able to at least gets the ring back," said the woman's son-in-law.This was a traumatizing experience for her and her family will be by her side making sure she feels safe. I'll tell you what, she's an absolute doll, she's as sweet and as cute as she can be.

Financial Aid: Default
If you default, it means you failed to make payments on your student loan according to the terms of your promissory note, the binding legal document you signed at the time you took out your loan. In other words, you failed to make your loan payments as scheduled. Your school, the financial institution that made or owns your loan, your loan guarantor, and the federal government all can take action to recover the money you owe. Here are some consequences of default:
- National credit bureaus can be notified of your default, which will harm your credit rating, making it hard to buy a car or a house.
- You would be ineligible for additional federal student aid if you decided to return to school.
- Loan payments can be deducted from your paycheck.
- State and Federal income tax refunds can be withheld and applied toward the amount you owe.
- You will have to pay late fees and collection costs on top of what you already owe.
- You can be sued.
Obviously, you don't want to let your loan go into default. However, should this happen, find out what options are available. Read the Guide for Defaulted Borrowers provided by the government to find comprehensive information developed by the Department of Education's FSA Collections section. Clicking on various tabs within that publication will give you information about how to remove your loan from default, what to do if you have a dispute about your loan's default status, and how to get answers to questions you might have.
You can also read our Direct Loans Consolidation information booklet for further info, or view the most Frequently Asked Questions regarding Direct Loans.

Authorities say 19 year old Gabriel Gonzalez and 23 year old Jeremy Lovitt robbed a Burger King restaurant in Stockton, California, but never saw a Burger King employee slip out the back door. That employee, whose name hasn't been released, found the robbers' getaway car with the engine running. The employee hopped in, drove it around the block and hid the vehicle. When the robbers ran outside with the money, they found their getaway car was gone. They then tried to flee on foot, but were caught by police in just a few minutes. The money was recovered.
Think the robbers will now sue Burger King for stealing their vehicle??? You never know nowadays.

This Cuisinart Grind and Brew coffeemaker is everything I was looking for plus some. I bought it to replace a SAECO that was three times more expensive and required a bi-monthly coffee chute clean-out which lost my programmed auto brew times. I'm extremely pleased so far.
There is nothing better than the smell of fresh-ground coffee in the morning. This machine works well. The coffee it makes is great! The only real problems we have are the price of coffee and our inability to find a brand that we love. One other little thing... the feet on the machine are rubber and make it hard to slide on the counter. It left black marks. I just stuck felt pads on them and it's great.
This coffee maker produces great cofee. However be prepared when started it is LOUD! Also this is a very tall unit, if you are placing it under a cabinet in the kitchen you should measure the height allowed.
Love the timer function for grind and brew the coffee automatic every morning. Overall it's a very good coffee maker.
I bought this product as a gift, and got a small sample and from what I can see so far is that the product delivers as advertised.
I purchased this grinder/coffeemaker for my husband for father's day. He had been going to Starbucks almost daily, but now says the coffee from this machine is just as good. It is much easier than having a separate grinder and coffee maker. Great purchase for a coffee lover!
This coffee maker did great for a feel or so. Then it didn't make coffee, just colored water. The directions say to clean out the chute where the ground beans go every week or so, so I tried to do that. Not very well described in the manual but eventually I figured it out. Good coffee again but only for a couple of days. Clogged again. Turns out that if the beans you use are a bit oily, who knew, they clog rapidly. AFter enough frustration with the process, we have resorted to a separate bean grinder and using our expensive toy like a $30 Mr Coffee.
Would definately not recommend. Ordinarily I am very faithful to the Cuisinart name. Not in this case however.
