A preacher was walking down the street when he noticed a little boy trying to ring the doorbell but it was just out of his reach. The preacher observes the little boys efforts for some time, then walks over to press the doorbell for the boy. The preacher bent down to the boy and asked "Now what?"
The boy turned and shouted "Now we run!"

Only Natural Pet Kidney Support is the perfect supplement for supporting the health of your pet's entire urinary system and is appropriate for adult pets. Our pets' kidneys can be damaged by ingesting toxins or medications, through genetic factors, and quite commonly due to infectious invaders like bacteria. Effects of this damage can be seen in many organs, including the bladder and urinary tract, where clear evidence may appear as recurrent infections, and in the form of urine crystals or kidney stones. Kidney damage also adds up over time, and it can be so subtle that even the most attentive guardians fail to spot any signs in their pets. This is why kidney issues often seem to appear "out of nowhere" as our pets age, becoming obvious only when the problem reaches a critical level. Supporting your pet's kidneys can play an important role in their longevity and quality of life. We've selected the best balance of quality herbal ingredients you can offer your pet to support these vital organs.
Kidney Support Herbal Formula contains a blend of herbal ingredients from both Western and Chinese herbal traditions to help maintain your pet's optimal kidney health and normal renal functioning . The key factors of the formula maintained balanced urine pH, support healthy circulation for maintained renal blood flow, support the normal detoxification processes and support the immune system in response to foreign material in the urinary tract and kidneys.
From the Traditional Chinese Medicine (TCM) perspective, the formula's benefit to kidneys is enhanced through the focused use of herbs selected to support heart and spleen health, which in turn support the kidneys. Designed to support healthy function of the kidneys and bladder in cats and dogs needing prevention, maintenance and care for stressed kidneys, our blend of herbal and botanical ingredients in this formula includes:

About Me Long-time Pet Owner
Comments about Only Natural Pet Kidney Support:
I've been using this product for about five weeks and it took about three weeks, but I finally saw less urine in her litter box, which was a joy!!! Not that I cared about the daily clean-up, but that Priscilla Sue was not drinking oh so much water and therefore urinating oh so much more than she should have.
Bottom Line Yes, I would recommend this to a friend

kidney levels dropped.
By Beck
from Traverse City, MI
I started using kidney support 3 months ago when my 14 year old Somali kitty Wolvee had high kidney levels. She is also on a raw food diet due to IBD so I was not going to put her on a low protein diet. I waited to send this review until she went back to the vet after 3 months to have her levels rechecked. She went this week and both of the levels that were high had dropped. The vet was very pleased. She also gained some weight. I have to mix the two capsules with her food for the day and mix it up well, if I try to sprinkle it on her food she will not eat it most of the time. So far I am very happy with how this has worked.
My cat will eat it!
By Mastiff Mommy
from Kirkland, WA
Our cat suffered from urinary tract infections many years ago (she's 16 years old now). We NEVER want to go through that again. We had some cranberry tablets that she liked, but those are hard to find now. She wouldn't touch the cranberry wellness (sold here), but this stuff she likes. I just sprinkle it on her dry food, and she licks it right up.Hard to say if it's effective... but so far, so good!

I tried this product because my dog "Bear" age 9 .5 Years young had his kidney value going up to a rage off great concern, he had battled an allergic reaction to medicine when he was 3.5 years young and he had a lot of pain associated to this illness so the vet gave him a pain med called previcox, which is a great pain pill but it can over time affect the kidneys and it did on my boy. His kidney values were so high that the vet feared that he will have kidney failure soon, and I should prepare myself to say good-bye to my boy. I refused to give up on him because he was still so full of life and very happy. So I gave this product a try and after using it for three month the vet rechecked his kidney values and they have improved to almost "NORMAL" values, so I am very exited that my boy is actually becoming healthy!!!! I personally would give this product a 10 star!!!! When my boy was sick with this allergic reaction I had used a different product from Only Natural Pet for the skin & coat and that product did wonders as well, three vet's told me that my dog would not have any hair after he heals, and I have to say they were wrong!!! His coat is better then before! So thank you so much for these great products that are natural and safe to give to our beloved pets, the cost is reasonable compared to the so high vet bills. Thank you again for saving my dogs life!!! And to anyone out there trying to make a decision on if you should try this product.....don't think too long and waist time just order and try it you will see for yourself that it works. But you need to give this everyday with no interruptions, some people give things (vitamins/herbs) one or two times and then they say it does not work, it works if you keep giving it to your pet every day! animals respond to natural things soooo much better then chemicals....my "Bear" surely is and he is more then living proof that the products from "Only Natural Pet" WORK!!! If I could download before and after pic's I would....it would blow peoples minds! My dogs skin was so bad he didn't look like a dog anymore and now he is more then healthy with a beautiful shinny coat all thanks to those great products! Thank you again over and over!!!

Great procuct to help balance PH level
By Busybee
from Tacoma, WA
My dog had STRUVITE CRYSTALS and put him on Urinary SO formulae for 6 weeks. They disappeared and my vet suggested I keep him on it permanently. I told him I did a lot of research and was going to steer towards some homeopathic remedies, found out dogs have a 30% chance of a reoccurrence. He just finished his first bottle and seems to be feeling fine. I check his PH level and it is consistently in a normal range now. The Urinary So would have cost over $100 a month to feed him. I also read it is not good to keep them on the Urinary SO longterm. He had an abnormal bilirubin reading after being on this formulae and that would have affected his liver, possibly leading to cancer. His bilirubin is normal now. The little amount of $$ it costs to have him on this kidney support is well worth it!!

Dog is Acting younger
By hbears2002
from St. James, MN
I checked with my vet to make sure he knew about the Kidney Support and I asked him if it'd work for Peanut. He said to get it. So I did, and have been cutting and emptying the capsule into his food, 2xs a day, my dog eats dog food trays. At first, I didn't notice anything. Then, after 1-week, I noticed he had to pee more often, so I took him out, of course. I even started getting mad thinking he was peeing TOO much, but then, I started to notice: he was running again. He's jumping on furniture again. He sleeps next to me again! Woohooo!! Its a miracle! lol. I think it is working. I'm keeping him on it, at least for now.
very effective
By Jennifer

Been using this product for 4 years or more, my shihtzu used to get recurring UTIs. I use this product along with others (pH-) and she hasn't had a UTI in the entire time I've been using these products. She is 11 yrs old today and doing great - she is a completely "onlynaturalpet.com" girl, with these products and preventative flea and tic tag and she is energetic, healthy, and no one can believe she is 11! THANK YOU onlynaturalpet.com!
By JJ
from Pennsylvania
my shih tzu is 10-1/2 yrs old. i adopted her from a friend when she was 3-4 yrs old, and she was having frequent urinary/bladder infections, (i wouldn't know til her urine would show pink-red blood in it),resulting in lots of vet visits, medication, costing lots of $$. the standard steroid treatment (which i didn't like anyway) wasn't enough, which meant she'd take an additional 2nd strong med, for several weeks, then taper off slowly. it would be nearly 2 months til she weaned off the meds. While on the meds she would be extremely extremely lethargic, couldn't even go for walks, too weak or tired from the meds. this would happen several times during the year, end result being she required surgery for struyvite bladder stones,and I was shocked at the huge number of stones they got out (they showed me). They told me her urine pH was on the very highest end of alkaline. I began looking for a natural fix, and eventually found Only Natural Pet. I tried various kidney/bladder supplements on the site, but about 3 yrs ago I settled on the Kidney Support and the pH- powder for her specific bladder issue. She has had no issue with bladder stones, and UTIs, no blood in urine, and she has regained the energy and bounce she had when I first met her when she was young! I also use other preventives, the Sentry all natural flea/tick, the brewer's yeast/garlic tabs, for health and also as flea/tick preventative. I also use the Pet Naturals Daily Best Dog Multi-Vitamin Soft Chews. Even her former owner can't believe how energetic and healthy she is, and once my dog had been on these supplements for probably 4-5 months, others began commenting that she just "looked" so good, so bright (having no idea the changes I had made). I definitely recommend this product! Each dog is unique and requires something different, but this is the combination that works for my shihtzu, and she and I are VERY happy!

Eyed this bag for a long time. Love the size, it really does hold a lot . I have a 7" x 4.5" wallet, checkbook, tin of mints, compact, cell phone(mine fits in the inside pocket, Samsung Galaxy 2) , reading glasses, nail case, small notebook, still have plenty of room. Bag is light weight and love ease of access.
Friday October 25 2013
I just purchased 3 colors (Bordeaux, Tobacco, Black) to replace my old designer bags. This purse is the exact size as my old ones! Wish it had more pockets, inside and out, but the adjustable strap and all-leather makes up for that. It is so light, and can be dressy or casual. Really hope they come out with a white pearl color for summer 2014!

Possibility that Attorney General Eric H Holder Jr may be cited for contempt has taken center stage in the House, pressed by a handful of Republican lawmakers who have pursued the Fast and Furious controversy for months; scandal has escalated against the wishes of some Republican leaders who fear it will detract from their economic message for the 2012 campaign.

Two people are in police custody Wednesday for a suspected carjacking. The suspects were arrested after a police chase that ended with police firing shots near a bus stop in Southfield. A white, four door Chevy was carjacked at Catalpa Drive and Greenfield Road, according to police. An adult victim gave up the vehicle and called 911. Oak Park Police then picked up the chase as the Chevy drove south on Greenfield Road at a high rate of speed. The vehicle then pulled into the Northland Mall Shopping Center parking lot. Two police vehicles were damaged. The suspects were ordered to get on the ground, and both put hands in their coats which appeared to be a threat, a police source tells Fox 2's Ron Savage. In return, police fired several shots but neither suspect was hit. Two men were taken into custody. A witness waiting for a bus nearby describes the situation to Savage: "The young man hopped out of the car. And, I guess, the officer smacked that mound. Once he smacked that mound he fired three shots at him and he hit the snow. He went over there, started tackling him, beating him, all types of stuff to the guy. And then when they handcuffed him they other guy, I think they let one of the guys go and took the other two down."VIDEO: Click on the video player above to watch Ron Savage's reportThe number of shots fired by police has not been confirmed.

Fidelio - Synopsis
Joseph Sonnleithner after revisions of Georg Friedrich Treitschke after Jean-Nicolas Bouilly's libretto Léonore, ou L'Amour conjugal
Florestan has disappeared. Leonore, his wife, is searching for him. She wants to rescue him. Pizarro, his enemy, has been persecuting him. He wants to kill Florestan.
Act One
Leonore suspects that her husband, Florestan, is being held prisoner by Pizarro in his fortress.
She alters her identity and, calling herself Fidelio, gets a job as an assistant to Rocco, who is the chief jailer in Pizarro's prison.
Marzelline, Rocco's daughter, has fallen in love with Fidelio. Jaquino, who also works for Rocco, is in love with Marzelline, but she now finds his affection a nuisance and would like to be rid of him. Rocco is convinced that money, not only love, is necessary in order to find happiness in life. He sides with his daughter and encourages her in her hopes for a new romance. Marzelline already imagines the fulfillment of her dream: she will be happily married to Fidelio and spend her life at his side. Having won the confidence of father and daughter, Leonore also hopes that she is getting closer to her goal, namely to find Florestan. Jaquino's hopes are dashed, however, and his world falls apart.
Pizarro's superior, Fernando, plans to inspect the prison as he has heard that people are being held there illegally. Pizarro gets himself into the mood for his revenge: Florestan must be killed before Fernando arrives and Rocco is given instructions to carry out the task – for which he will, of course, be generously rewarded. Rocco refuses to murder Florestan but, mindful of his duty, he agrees to assist Pizarro when the latter orders him to help him to carry out the murder himself.
Leonore, who has overheard the conversation between Pizarro and Rocco, is now determined to do whatever is necessary to rescue her husband. She allows the prisoners to go out into the prison yard for air but cannot find Florestan among them when she scans their desperate faces, so she persuades Rocco to allow her to accompany him down into the dungeons, where she suspects Florestan is being held.
Pizarro angrily gives orders for the prisoners to be returned to their cells. Rocco steps in front of Marzelline and Leonore to protect them. Mindful of the plot to get rid of Florestan, Pizarro does not punish Rocco for disobeying orders.
Act Two
Florestan bemoans his fate. Just as if he were hallucinating, he has a vision of Leonore as an angel coming to his rescue.
Rocco and Fidelio make their way down to Florestan's dungeon and begin with the preparations for his murder. Horrified and yet filled with hope at the same time, Leonore recognizes her husband. Pizarro appears to kill Florestan. Fidelio succeeds in preventing the murder at the last moment by stepping between the prisoner and Pizarro and revealing herself as Florestan's wife, just as a trumpet call rings out to announce the arrival of Fernando.
Justice has been established and there is rejoicing. Fernando, who had believed that his friend Florestan was dead, sets him and all the other prisoners free and Pizarro is punished.

Stretch Satin Dress with Crumb Catcher Detail Style 84835
This item is available online only. *
The perfect blend of glamour and sophistication, this short style will look great walking down any aisle.
A smooth fabric often used in bridal gown design because of its exquisite drape.

Stretch Satin Dress with Crumb Catcher Detail Style 84835 12 12
Surprisingly in love! I bought this in "malibu" and was nervous about the ruching. It looks different than the picture, and the ruching actually runs up rather than down. Looks bizarre on the hanger, but great on. I'm 5'8" and 165 lbs, and the size 12 fits great and is very flattering. I purchased this for cocktail parties and work events. September 2, 2013
disappointed consumer the dress they have in stock drastically differs from the dress displayed in the catalog by the style number of 84835 June 17, 2013
Not Long Enough My bridesmaids ordered this dress. Overall I love it, but it isn't for every size. My bridesmaids range from size 8 to size 26. One of my bridesmaids ordered a size up because her normal size was too short. When it came it, the dress was wider but still too short. Now we are trying to figure out how to add length to it. March 12, 2013
Michelin Tire Man Dress The bunching from the waist down adds rolls people don't even have. The ruffles on the back side of the dress adds back fat that doesn't exist. If you've had kids, the bunching ends in just the right spot to totally highlight the mommy ponch. This is the worst fitting dress ever for a person who's hips are even slightly bigger than their chest. You have to be very petite, or lack hips all together to pull off the look in the photos online. February 1, 2013

MYFOXNY/AP-- Improved maintenance of the East River tunnels used by Amtrak and Long Island Rail Road is in the works following a deal brokered by Sen. Charles Schumer and Amtrak.
Sen. Schumer and Amtrak Chairman Anthony Coscia met in September to discuss the issue.
"This past July 17th, LIRR trains were delayed during the evening rush-hour due to a broken rail inside Amtrak's East River Tunnels. This past August 19th, an eastbound LIRR train was stuck in the East River Tunnel after power to the third rail went out. Most recently, this past Thursday a joint rail bar failed in Tunnel 3 of the East River Tunnel overnight, causing delays during the morning rush-hour commute," said Sen. Schumer.
The plans include an improved inspection program and replacement of track segments that are prone to failure.
"These tunnels are the weakest link in the commute of hundreds of thousands of Long Islanders, and by bringing them up to a state of good repair we'll reduce the frequency of the maddening delays, reroutes and cancellations that currently happen far too often. By committing to repairing and upgrading the tunnels, Amtrak is committing to improve the day to day life of almost anyone who rides the LIRR," said Sen. Schumer.Copyright 2013 The Associated Press.

My sister-in-law, Ava McWhorter, recently brought us forty-eight fresh chicken eggs. These were the most different eggs I have never, ever seen before. They were blue, pink and brown in color. If I had not known better, I would have thought the blue and pink eggs had been dyed. It was ironic being so close to Easter.
Being curious about what they looked like once cracked open, I scrambled a pink and blue one for Mac's breakfast. Once opened, they were just a normal looking egg.
I asked myself, "What can I do with forty-eight eggs?" I began researching egg recipes. Then I remembered this egg salad recipe I had in the Orange County newspaper in June, 1995.

Khadjia-- Welcome and hope you'll regulate soon and can start again
Ember--I know how you feel, hopefully you won't have to worry about it though!!
ASM: All my signs suggest I haven't O'ed yet. My DH called the opk completely useless--can't say that I feel like I disagree. Not feeling great about this month.
I don't know what it is, but I'm just terrified of (what feels like) the inevitable temp drop this month. It dropped some two days ago (still above cover), but has been a tiny bit higher each of the last two days. Yesterday I thought it might be because I temped about 45 minutes later, but today was back at about 6:45. I've been having cramping the last few days, but that's not abnormal for me in the approach to AF. Neither are the tender breasts I've had basically since O. I'm not feeling too optimistic, yet as long as my temp doesn't go down more I'm still holding out some pesky kernel of hope. Ugh. If it's anything like the past several cycles, I'll start spotting tonight, but I hope that doesn't happen regardless since I'd really like my luteal phase to get it's act together!
Sorry for the vent. Thanks for listening. I'm just saying... DH graduates next Friday, and it should would be a hell of a graduation present.

Natalie - I hope your temps do something to support o soon!!
Sara - I hope you get that graduation present
Butane - get it girl!!
Rach - I hope you have better temps tomorrow!! I have got my fingers crossed for you!
AFM - I called the doc about provera yesterday and she wants me to come in Wednesday? I think she wants to see my chart and do a pg test just in case - tho I'm certain I'm not pg. She had mentioned clomid in the past but I don't want to do that until DH sperm issues are solved. I need a pick me up tho so I just got all my hair cut off...lol
So, its O day according to FF. I was able to stop by a Walmart today yay! But would you believe that the store I stopped at didn't carry BBTs!?
I also didn't pick up any OPKs as DH is adamant that I "will not screw up the cruise in October by getting pregnant now." (which I find was a mean spirited, hurtful and childish thing to say) and he meant it, no OPKs for me until September, so, basically crap participation on his part til then.
I was able to get royal jelly for egg health and grape seed extract that's supposed to work well with the vitamin C in my prenatals. Bringing my total daily supplements to:
B6 100mg
Grape seed extract 50mg ( with an antioxidant blend of green tea, bilberry and citrus bioflavonoids 130mg and polyphenols 22.5mg)
Royal jelly 1000mg
Low dose aspirin (81mg)
Black cohosh 1080 mg (before O)
Seems like a lot lol!
Hopefully I'll be able to find the other supplements on my list soon!
Btw Jess, i think I can speak for all of us when I say, post picsof your new haircut!
Butane, Kelly - I saw you both mentioned Royal Jelly lately. Can you tell me more about it? Also - what's the story with low dose aspirin?

The most heartbreaking thing is after ypu talk about kids, names etc. He says he wants to wait. Makes me feel unwanted or that maybe I shouldn't marry him.
Butane - wow you have ttc arsenal going for you! Maybe start slow and work your way up, sometimes supplements can have some nasty side effects. Hoping everything works great for you
Rach - I think your temp may have been a fluke because of the rough night you had. Fingerscrossed it goes back up tomorrow!
Sara - No spotting allowed unless it's implantation spotting!!!
Fame - I' really sorry your feeling let down Does he still want kids or just not want them right away? It can be a really great time for you two to have the first year or so of marriage to be just about you. And then having children will be a beautiful bonus to a great marriage.
Jess - let's see that new haircut!
khadi - welcome and sorry for your loss
afm - Worst.Period.Ever. I did not know the period after a mc could be worse than the mc itself, but it's WAY worse. 7 crazy days of cramping and intense bleeding. Even had to take yesterday off. Wow.

Mel, I usually don't get side effects from stuff and trust me if I don't feel well I'll definitely stop taking stuff and start over at a different pace.
Fame, so sorry hunny, maybe you need to have a sit down with your soon to be hubby and figure out I'd he means not now or not at all, also maybe expressing that having children is very important to you and also a non negotiable subject.
Mel (39) DH (37) Finally, a baby boy after 12 months of TTC!
April 2013 http://www.saferpills.org/
Royal jelly helps improve egg quality. I started taking it in October after my D&C. Our baby had Trisomy 22, so in my mind, it was a bad egg. I know that cannot be proven, but it makes me feel better knowing I'm doing all I can to improve my egg quality.
I just had a early miscarriage or chemical pregnancy this week soo DH and I are immediately going to try again.. Any suggestions on what to take to get this next baby to be ok and stick? I've heard of the royal jelly and taking b6 and aspirin.. All I took this cycle that I got pregnant and lost was prenatal vitamins..
Good luck to all!
Okay here are some pics...
Here is after:
Here is before: (I'm on the left)
I'm not sure what to think but everyone says its cute so I'm rolling with it!
Jessie - I think it looks adorable and makes you look younger too!
Mel - Sorry Af has been so horrible to you lately! I hope it eases up for you soon.
AFM - I am feeling much better, finished my garden and am just lounging around. I lost 2lbs so far, hoping to keep it off! I am very depressed tonight, DH has been gone a lot and came home Weds and I haven't spent more than 2hrs with him since. He ended up spending the day at his mother's then I saw him 3mins when I got home from work before he took off to the racetrack for the fire dept. and yesterday he left at 7pm and didn't come home until 2am from a fire. I know he loves the fire fighting stuff but I wish he would come home to his wife once in a while. I am so jealous of his mother because she got to spend the whole day with him today and I got 3mins. And those 3mins were us arguing because he won't be home for mother's day and we were suppose to make plans this weekend for our mothers and he ended up making plans with the fire dept and to take his mother out for lunch but uhhh what about my mother? what about the fact that his wife just miscarried and would have been 14wks today and mother's day is next weekend and he won't be home! It's not fair, I'm so hurt, lonely and depressed. I feel so horrible, I threw out my little plants because I lost all motivation to plant them in the garden because I wanted it to be a project for us to watch it grow like our baby should have grown and I had to throw them away because they didn't grow, just like my baby. I am so crushed and really, I feel like I hurt my plant's feelings and made them feel unwanted, I want to pull them out of the trash but I crumbled them. Why'd I do that? Those poor plants. Ugh! I feel horrible, I have to stop crying, I need to pull up my boot straps and move on. DH has no clue what a mess I am, he is never here, he has no clue I am bawling my eyes out and I wish he had a clue. Anyway, End of vent.

Ugh so I gave in and tested a little while ago and the test was defective. The dye stopped right where the test line was at so of course I am wondering what if. I only have one test left and I am going to use it tomorrow morning. Right now I have heartburn and cramping a lot so I don't know where this is going to go but not feeling super hopeful anymore.

This week I tried to paint my finger nail tips a different color using three hole punch adhesive stickers. This is the picture from Pintrest.
Mine did not work out exactly like it was suppose to.

Why Seaming Isn't So Bad
221 stitches on US 3 needles? I never knew my torso was so interminably long! I'm at 27 cm with another 11 cm to go before the armholes.
The pattern is DROPS 88-4 Cardigan knit in Queensland Kathmandu DK Tweed.
Knowing that I would quickly lose my knitting mojo on the body, I knit the sleeves first hoping that having "only the body left" would help me finish. The cabled rib sections are knit on US 3 needles, the stockinette sections on US 6. The ribbing on the sleeves took more time than the entire rest of the arms so I know that as soon as I get to 38 cm, this project will fly off the needles. Until then, I will slog along.
While I complain that this is a slow, slow knit, I've actually made amazing time on it since I knit the entire Thanksgiving break. I started this 8 days ago and the body 6 days ago. Perhaps I'll have a finished sweater over the weekend.
I took a break Monday to swatch Bryant's Slipover Vest in Brown Sheep Nature Spun Sport as a possible knit for my cousin Ida.
The stitch pattern looks different at different distances. I put it in the mail this morning to get her opinion. More on that project in the coming weeks.

very pretty! that is some fast progress on little needles!! :)
You have made incredible progress on that sweater! It looks great. Keep going! You can do it! They talk about being stranded on sleeve islanded, but torso island is much worse.
Wow, that IS fast! And such a pretty pattern.
Isn't it funny how we try to psyche ourselves out?
How do you take such beautiful photos? Just gorgeous. Can't wait to see the sweater.
I'm sure it seem slow when you're working on it, but given the little needles AND cables I think you're making incredible time. I love how it looks in that tweedy yarn.
Wow such fast progress on the cabled goodness. It is looking so good. I like the vest too, very elegant.
Just seeing all the progress on the size 3 needles makes my hands feel tired and twitchy! You are a knitting rockstar E!
It would take me a year to do that much – and it's gorgeous. Love the color, can't wait to see the finished product!!
Just chiming in to cheer you on! The cardigan is going to be gorgeous, and I can't wait to see more of the vest!!
LOVELY! I love small gauge. The result will be so elegant and durable.
That Drops cardi has been in my queue for ages. I can't wait to see it on you! Such a lovely fabric with the tweed.
THAT is going to be a beautiful cardigan! 8 days ago?? Now I really feel like a turtle!
Oooh, I can't wait to see your slipover vest progress! I'm definitely intrigued by it.
Are you going to finish the cardi in a matter of a couple of weeks? Knit like the wind!
I'm impressed at your speed, on size 3's no less!!!??
It may seem slow, but I does sound like you're flying on that sweater!
What amazing stitch definition. I love your photos. :)

About 100 hundred protestors gathered at the Jefferson County Courthouse, Tuesday, in opposition of the recent SCOTUS ruling which struck down Sect. 4 of the Voting Rights Act.
The ruling is likely to have heavy impact on the Beaumont Independent School District. In 2011, voters approved changing the makeup of the school board from 7 single district members to 5 single district members and 2 at-large seats. A map was drawn but was shot down by the Department of Justice.
Based on the SCOTUS ruling, entities like BISD who have had to go through pre-clearance with the DOJ may not have to do so anymore.
Critics of the protest say a second reason is a motion before the 9th court of appeals arguing that the court enforce it's order that all 7 board seats be up for re-election after redistricting.
If that ruling stands, three trustees would lose their seats in a November election: Woodrow Reece, Terry Williams and Zenobia Bush. They did not file to run because back in March they didn't believe they were up for re-election.
But three people did file to run: Linda Gilmore, Donna Forgas and Marcelino Rodriquez. Since Reece, Williams and Bush missed the deadline, the three others would automatically take their spots on the board.
At Tuesday's rally downtown, those who spoke to the crowd said this is manipulation of minority voting.
Members of the crowd spoke saying "We're under attack." Beaumont resident and rally organizer, Paul Jones, tells 12News minorities are under attack with the recent ruling because minorities feel they will not be fairly represented.
School board president, Woodrow Reece, told the crowd that BISD passed a $389 million bond. He said "We did this black and white and at the end of the day, the whites wanted to pull out. They (a group that supports the 5-2 plan) just want power. I'm not giving them power."
Board trustee Zenobia Bush also spoke to the crowd saying "I'm tired of being sick and tired. We're tired of it and we're not going to take it anymore."
Jones says the purpose of the protest was to raise awareness that everyone needs to write their local representatives about voting rights.
There were several people who support the 5-2 plan in attendance.
Attorney Michael Truncale tells 12News "We need to preserve our constitutional right. One person, one vote. We believe in the rule of law and it's the rule of law that has protected these fine people all these years."
The Beaumont ISD school district has until FRiday to respond to the 9th Court of Appeals.
The district must justify, by Friday, how it is going to abide by the court's previous order.
