Tag : fashion doll quarterly
Over the last month i've made two new dolls: one costumed, titled 'Bride of Frankenstein' and one tattooed, titled 'The Vessel'.
I can't believe that i've been able to (almost) complete two brand new dolls in one month on top of working on other projects and nudes simultaneously. I think that this July i outdid myself, but I also almost lost my sanity in the process. I'm going to hold off showing full pictures of either doll for a bit because the Bride is missing last bit of detail on her dress and the Vessel is waiting for her head ornament, which is yet to be made. The Bride of Frankenstein is a very special doll because she is wearing a very interesting, Steampunk inspired, bronze head dress. The 'hat' was very complex to make and i'm quite proud of the fact that i was able to make it work in the way i envisioned it. The piece fits snugly on the head, but it's assembled of three hinged parts which open up like an orange peel so that it can be put on the doll's head and removed without much difficulty.
I'm very excited about making more metal head ornaments and can't wait to begin the next one.
There have been other very exciting things happening around here, one of which is another interview for a Fashion Doll Quarterly Magazine. It comes out in the fall as well as Haute Doll, but it will have different works published there, including the brand new dolls.
The other exciting thing is that i'm almost ready to make the sterling silver slippers for Enchanted Doll available for sale. I'm just working out the final details of cost and packaging. This pair is the first style in the very exclusive line, and i'll be posting close up pictures when it's ready to launch.

Hi! I'm Megan, the voice and taste buds behind nutmeg.
My love affair with food started before I could even reach the counter, much less our trusty stand mixer. My beautiful mother is a fabulous home cook and her passion for feeding us meals cooked with love created the foundation for my passion. After high school, I traveled from the mitten to little Rhody to attend Johnson and Wales University to study Baking and Pastry Arts. Upon completing my associates degree, I moved back to the mitten. This time in Grand Rapids, I attended Grand Rapids Community College to receive my Culinary Management degree from their outstanding Secchia Insitute for Culinary Education. I have recently earned my Certified Dietary Managers Associates Degree from Ferris State University and I am currently working towards the completion of my Bachelors Degree in Hospitality Management.
My passion is fueled by a desire to nourish people through the food I prepare. Food is consistently a common thread that stitches all of humankind together. Whether you're a toddler trying carrots for the first time, or a newlywed couple preparing your first meal together, food is the center of our lives. It's what feeds us, sustains us, nourishes us, and connects us. Many of us show our sympathy, love, and concern through meals. Food is the key to thriving, not only surviving.
My passion for food and eating goes hand in hand with my other passion for travel. I love exploring a new culture through food. I have been extremely fortunate with the opportunities I have been given to explore many cultures. A couple years ago, I was able to travel to Italy twice, once through a study away program through the SICE program, and the second to record the Cooking with Angus show. On the show, Chef Angus Campbell, myself and a fellow student traveled to Italy and then to Scotland exploring the food and culture. We just recently found out that we have been awarded a Michigan Emmy for our Mozzarella Episode! Click on this link to see the shows! Cooking with Angus Show
I also love spending time with family, adventures with my handsome husband, photography and of course, eating delicious food. I hope to share some of my ideas on this blog to help inspire you, motivate you, or just make your tummy rumble. Enjoy!

Money, intrigue, suspense/Oilers vs. HSA battle heats up
This article appeared in the Sept. 13, 1987, Houston Chronicle.
The Oilers' future existence in Houston, in large part, depends on the outcome of complex and difficult negotiations between two organizations owned by a strong-willed, successful but unpredictable businessmen and managed with a tight fiscal approach.
And it's likely no firm resolution will be forthcoming for some time.
All indications are that Oilers owner Bud Adams' promotion of Jacksonville, Fla., as a potential new home, while certainly a useful negotiating ploy in his efforts to attain concessions in any new Astrodome lease, is more than mere rhetoric.
But all indications are, too, that Adams prefers to keep the National Football League team here, where it was born 28 years ago, where Adams' family and friends and other businesses are located.
And all indications are that the John McMullen-owned Houston Sports Association needs the Oilers as much as the Oilers need the HSA, probably more.
Contrary to popular opinion, there are no clear-cut villains in this fascinating, ever-changing soap opera, at least for the moment.
Rather, this plot involves two businesses embroiled in a dispute about money. True, both Adams, who brought professional football to Houston and has remained loyal to the city for three decades, and McMullen, who lives in Montclair, N.J., works in New York City and has never felt completely accepted here, have been vilified repeatedly, fair or not, for past actions. But in these negotiations, they are no different from any other businessmen: Each wants the best possible deal for his financial interests. Each became wealthy, not in sports but through under endeavors, and neither Adams nor McMullen achieved their fortunes caving in to public sentiment or any other outside factor.
McMullen says: "Compared to other negotiations I've experienced, this isn't at all extraordinary."
But the intriguing aspect is that this plot also involves a third party, the city of Jacksonville, eager to capitalize if the dispute remains unresolved.
For those who haven't followed the story, this is the situation:
The Oilers' entire 28-year existence has been spent in Houston and under Adams' ownership. They have played the last 20 years in the Astrodome, as a tenant of the HSA, which operates the stadium for Harris County. Adams has never been shy in his criticism of the landlord, saying even before he moved into the facility and long before the present HSA ownership was in place: "If the Astrodome is the eighth wonder of the world, surely its rent is the ninth wonder."
The Oilers' lease expires following the 1987 season, and team management has said it wants $1 million in modifications in its favor in any new agreement with the HSA. Oilers General Manager Ladd Herzeg, the team's principal negotiator, has said the team estimates HSA grosses $3 million annually off Oilers games and nets $2 million.
Adams and Herzeg, who contend the HSA and the HSA-owned Astros baseball team are one and the same, say their only demand to remain in Houston is equal treatment with the Astros - i.e., if the HSA nets $2 million from the Oilers, the Oilers should receive half that profit in one form or another.
HSA officials have declined to specify their exact position in the lease negotiations except to say the organization is willing to modify the Oilers' lease to the team's benefit.
The HSA has responded several times, however, to what it claims are inaccuracies in the Oilers' stated position. The HSA says the Oilers' estimate of HSA profits on their games is erroneous. But the HSA, repeatedly expressing a desire to negotiate in private, won't provide its own figures.
The Oilers already have rejected two HSA contract offers, terming the former a "non-proposal" and labeling the latter "a slap in the face."
Herzeg says he expects to receive another formal proposal Tuesday.
At issue, too, in a general sense, is whether the HSA, whose Astros are the stadium's prime tenant, should have been given the Astrodome management responsibility by Harris County from the beginning, in 1961 before the stadium was built. The Oilers claim this is unfair to county taxpayers.
But in these negotiations, this is a moot point. For one thing, that agreement was negotiated long before McMullen or his executive employees were affiliated with the HSA, beginning in 1979. For another, the HSA's contract to manage the Astrodome is firm and extends, with options, for 57 more years.
Harris County Judge Jon Lindsay has been in frequent contact with both parties and has recommended the engagement of an impartial mediator, a suggestion the HSA approved but the Oilers rejected.
Otherwise, Lindsay's official position is: "The county has done all it can do. This is a matter between the HSA and the Oilers."
Like it or not, Adams must negotiate with the HSA if he is to remain at the Astrodome.
Like it or not, the HSA must deal with Adams if it wants to retain the Oilers as a client.
Two highly significant factors are paramount in complicating the negotiations.
The first is that Harris County has approved a $50 million Astrodome expansion plan, pushed by Lindsay but contingent on the Oilers' signing a new lease with the HSA. The Oilers desire 65,000 seats for their games, approximately a 15,000 increase from the present football capacity, and they want the expansion in time for the 1989 season. To assure that completion date, a lease agreement is required within the next month.
The second is the presence of Jacksonville as a realistic option for Adams.
It is believed Jacksonville soon will secure a letter of credit guaranteeing $115 million in profits to Adams over the next 10 years.
And neither the HSA, nor Lindsay, nor any one else in Houston has disputed Adams' claim that Houston cannot match Jacksonville's offer.
The Oilers' position is that only loyalty will keep the team here.
Other cities, especially San Antonio, have been introduced as potential new homes for the Oilers if neither the HSA negotiations nor Jacksonville's efforts bear fruition. But forget those reports. Adams' decision is clear: Houston or Jacksonville.
Several questions merit attention:
Is Jacksonville a serious option for the Oilers? Or is Adams merely toying with the HSA, thus, in effect, with this city and its football fans?
There is little doubt that Adams is using Jacksonville, indeed is using other less-realistic options, as leverage in the Oilers' dealings with the HSA. There is little doubt either, however, that Adams is impressed by Jacksonville's spirit and resolve.
The temptation, because public posturing often reveals so much in otherwise private negotiations, is to analyze Adams' recent dealings with the media - thus, the football fans of Houston and Jacksonville - and say he is playing all of us for fools.
He has refused all interviews from the hometown press. Yet one day this past week, he courted a San Antonio reporter whom he had never met, hinting to that reporter that the Oilers would consider San Antonio as a new home if a proposed domed stadium becomes reality. The next day, he spent four hours in his office with a Jacksonville reporter, also a stranger. And he told that reporter he had no interest in San Antonio, indeed wasn't returning Mayor Henry Cisneros' telephone calls, but expected to play in Florida next season.
A brilliant orchestration? Perhaps.
But those privy to Adams' recent thoughts say the reason he has favored the out-of-town press is primarily because of his genuine distaste for the Houston media. A Florida Times-Union reporter, allowed an audience with the Oilers' owner last week, says Adams spent considerable time criticizing the Houston media for their treatment of the Oilers, a team whose record is 16-57 in the last five years.
Those who have spoken recently with Adams say, too, that Adams' mood brightens noticeably when the subject of Jacksonville is addressed. In his interview with the Times-Union, Adams spoke about reviving the Derrick Dolls, even about whether he should change the team's nickname if it moves. He talked about Florida's booming economy in contrast to Houston's financial troubles, about the joys of playing before a full house.
Other evidence of Adams' sincerity toward Jacksonville includes a memo, labeled top secret, circulated to Oilers employees asking if they would move with the team. According to the Times-Union, Adams said almost all answered yes.
Neither can Herzeg's relationship with Adams be ignored. Adams has given his general manager enormous influence in running the football operation. And because Herzeg, even more so than Adams, has been ridiculed by fans and media for the Oilers' failures, one theory is that Herzeg would prefer a fresh start elsewhere, an opportunity to work in an environment where the public is eager to embrace any team and any management.
By all accounts, however, Herzeg is, like HSA President and chief negotiator Bob Harter, an ultimate company man and will do whatever his boss desires. Whether justified or not, Herzeg believes, too, that the Oilers are about to improve their performance on the playing field. And in a city that loves winners and detests losers, Herzeg, a proud man, knows his reputation could quickly turn around here.
Does Adams care about Houston, or even about the Oilers? Or is he, as his reputation persists, merely "Bottom-Line Bud?"
Those who have known Adams for years say he does feel a genuine affection for Houston, for the Oilers' tradition here. They say he takes pride in entertaining associates at Astrodome games, at being the elder statesmen among owners of this city's professional teams.
It should be considered, too, that Adams has seldom been one to create controversy among the NFL's inner circle. More often than not, his voice has been within the mainstream of overall league policy. The NFL is on record as opposing an Oilers move to Jacksonville. Indeed, according to league bylaws, NFL owners must approve any switch. The Raiders' Al Davis, in moving from Oakland to Los Angeles, and the Colts' Robert Irsay, in moving from Baltimore to Indianapolis, already have defied those regulations. But it's questionable whether Adams would follow their lead.
Another factor: Davis lives in Los Angeles, not Oakland. Irsay lives in Chicago, not Baltimore or Indianapolis. Adams lives in Houston and, because of his family and other businesses, presumably he would remain here even if he moved his team. Would he want the stigma attached to that move?
Adams has told people, however, that he is disappointed in Houston's support of his team. Ticket sales have dropped steadily in recent years and are at a low point in 1987. Even many Astrodome skyboxes, a major revenue producer for a team that rents each box for $20 from the HSA and can resell them for any amount, are empty.
Adams may wonder exactly how many fans he would disappoint by leaving.
Does McMullen care if the Oilers stay in town? Would the HSA, in fact, be better off without the football competition for its baseball team in efforts to attract the entertainment dollar?
As owner of the HSA and Astros, McMullen has gained notoriety because of several unpopular decisions and two well-publicized disputes with Houston-based minority owners.
During his eight-year regime, however, the Astros have won their only two division championships, and in the 1980s few baseball teams have a better overall record.
More significant to these issues, McMullen has lobbied hard and with success with county officials for approval of two plans generating almost $100 million combined for expansion and improvements at the Astrodome complex. McMullen undertook the most recent challenge, pressing for expansion of the Astrodome football seating capacity, at Adams' request. "I don't need the seats for baseball," he says.
The idea that McMullen and the HSA would just as soon do without the Oilers, as espoused by numerous observers and even by Herzeg at one point, is preposterous. For one thing, the HSA makes money on the Oilers, and most years it loses money on its Astros. For another, the HSA cannot afford the public backlash associated with any effort, real or imagined, to run the football team out of town. Under terms of its lease with the county, the HSA is required to give all Astrodome tenants equitable treatment. Those are nebulous terms. But if the Oilers walked away, and blamed the HSA in the process, the HSA no doubt would face considerable scrutiny, not only by the media and fans, but by the county.
McMullen's biggest decision is how much concessions he should, or must, grant the Oilers to keep them in Houston.
If the Oilers left Houston after this season, would they be easily replaceable?
Not likely.
A popular theory among those who have lost faith in the Oilers, and in Adams and Herzeg, is that Houston deserves better than the Oilers.
Kick them out, the theory goes, and bring in new ownership, new players, new victories, new fans.
But Phoenix, Memphis, Sacramento, Jacksonville and other cities already are in line ahead of Houston in the expansion derby, a process that probably will remain inactive for three more years.
Oakland and Baltimore desire replacements, too, for lost teams.
It's possible a present franchise would locate here. Not probable, however.
The Astrodome's football capacity is the smallest in the NFL. And if the Oilers vacate, the county-approved expansion plan will be scrapped.
What would it take to entice a new team? Probably more seats and improvements - i.e., county funds - than even Adams has requested.
Given the area economy, how many people are prepared to invest in a team?
If the Oilers leave, Houston may go without pro football for several years.
What are the chances of the Oilers leaving?
The bottom line is this:
If Adams is interested only in making top-dollar profit, the Oilers likely will move to Jacksonville, whose business community apparently is better equipped and/or more risk-prone to offer Adams what he wants.
But if Adams sincerely identifies with the words he used last week in an interview with a San Antonio reporter, "Once a Texan, always a Texan," the Oilers will negotiate in good faith with the HSA. And if the HSA responds in kind, a compromise is probable enabling the Oilers to remain here.
At some point, however, Bud Adams and John McMullen, two determined businessmen now operating at cross-purposes but ultimately in need of each other, must be willing to exercise the give-and-take required in any successful negotiating process. Or the real losers will be this city's football fans.

Kazakhstan [1]
Exercise increased caution in Kazakhstan due to terrorism and violent crime.
There is an underlying threat of terrorism in Kazakhstan. On 18 July 2016, a gunman in Almaty killed three policemen and a member of the public. On 5 June 2016, a number of people were killed and injured in an attack in Aktobe in northwestern Kazakhstan. New Zealanders are advised to be security conscious in public places, monitor the media for information about threats to safety and security, and follow any advice and instructions issued by the local authorities.
Violent crime
Violent crime targeting foreigners has been reported in Atyrau and Aktau in western Kazakhstan, and in Astana and Almaty. New Zealanders in Kazakhstan should avoid walking alone and be especially cautious after dark in urban centres.
Robbery, pickpocketing and assaults can occur in shopping areas, markets, public transport, and restaurants. There have also been reports of travellers being robbed by individuals posing as police officers, or unsolicited 'meet-and-greet' drivers at airports. Never voluntarily give your wallet to someone, and always check for identification. Do not use unmarked taxis and avoid entering a cab that already has another passenger in the car. It is advisable to avoid wearing or displaying items that appear valuable such as mobile devices and jewellery.
General travel advice
Local police often ask to see proof of identity. Foreign nationals are required by Kazakhstan law to carry their passport and visa with them at all times.
New Zealanders travelling or living in Kazakhstan should have a comprehensive travel insurance policy in place that includes provision for medical evacuation by air. There are shortages of even the most basic medical supplies in Kazakhstan.

As a part of its Pan-European IT outsourcing research 2010, IT Sourcing Europe, a UK-located ITO research and advisory agency presented its findings of Austrian IT Outsourcing Software Development survey.
The survey aimed to explore the key trends and challenges among software development firms that outsource their software development areas to the 3rd party outsourcing providers.
In the period between September and October 2010 approximately 160 small, mid-sized and large companies across verticals in Austria were surveyed.
The survey results indicated that the number of nearshore software development outsourcers is double the number of offshore outsourcers (32% vs. 16%). For the time frames the study differentiate as offshore at least 2 time zones away from the home country, while nearshore maximum 2 time zones away or within Austria.
These figures supported by the top outsourcing drivers of the choice of the outsourcing destination in Austria which are: geographical and cultural proximity (25%), available IT resource pool (19%) and low costs (18%);
Among the main outsourcing goals polled companies indicated the following: to reduce operating costs (30% of respondents); to get access to more qualified resources and skills which are hard to find within Austria (24% of companies polled) and to respond to pressures from investors and/or executive management to cut down software development budgets (22% of participants);
The majority of the Austrian companies surveyed (28%) outsource 40% to 59% of their entire software development function, while only 2% of companies outsource less than 10% and 19% of companies outsource 90% to 100% of their software development volume.
The most outsourced area of expertise in Austria is Web 2.0 (Microsoft ASP.NET, Java, EpiServer, open source etc) – 42% of companies polled, followed by mobile development (34%). The least outsourced area of expertise is embedded development (only 3% of companies surveyed).

18th Century Warehouse Home in Copenhagen
Last week I showed this inspiring home full of custom built plywood furniture, and the owner of the home below seems to have had similar ideas. Her kitchen is actually Ikea with the cupboard fronts made from plywood instead of their standard doors, and the bed is made in a similar way. I also really like the old doorways that are now painted in different shades, and the fact that she has chosen to have no new, fancy furniture at all, as she likes her kids to be able to play everywhere. The building is an old warehouse from 1777 in central Copenhagen, which shows in the wooden beams and low ceilings, which is also what gives the space its personality and cosy atmosphere.

JUST ADD HAIR: Olympics superstar Michael Phelps will be all over cereal boxes, magazine covers and commercials, but what if he really wants to act? Most casting agents could see Phelps as Aquaman, Tarzan or starring in Swimfan II: The Gold Digger, but he also could be the perfect Bigfoot.
It looks like a couple of jokers have been toying with our Bigfoot emotions.
The ice has melted and Matthew Whitton and Rick Dyer's Bigfoot find has been revealed as a hoax.
However there are no doubts this Bigfoot tale could be the premise for an awesome TV movie, mostly because you can't have too many Bigfoot flicks.
Here are some casting ideas that may help Bigfoot 2008 get into production a bit quicker.
Bigfoot: Michael Phelps or James Gandolfini
Bigfoot hunter Matthew, a cop on disability leave: Billy Ray Cyrus or Kiefer Sutherland
Bigfoot hunter Rick, car salesman/tow-truck driver: Ben Stiller or Emile Hirsch
Bigfoot DNA specialist: Mel Brooks or Oprah Winfrey
Indignant cryptozoologist: Tom Cruise or Michael Cera
Reporter who has made a career writing about Bigfoot: Tina Fey or Will Smith
Celebrity cameo: Jonas Brothers or Prince
Child who talks to Bigfoot: Lisa Simpson or Dakota Fanning's little sister
Casting and plot ideas are welcome.

U.S. Senator Ted Cruz (R-Texas) chaired on April 26th the first of a series of planned hearings to explore the reopening of the American frontier in space.
The hearing was titled "Reopening the American Frontier: Reducing the Regulatory Barriers and Expanding American Free Enterprise in Space," and examined the U.S. Commercial Space Launch Competitiveness Act signed into law in November 2015, potential regulatory barriers to address in future legislation, and ways to expand commercial opportunities for American firms in space.
Four witnesses testified at the hearing, including:
- Robert Bigelow, founder, Bigelow Aerospace
- Rob Meyerson, President, Blue Origin
- George Whitesides, CEO, Galactic Ventures
- Andrew Rush, CEO, Made in Space
Investment and innovation
According to Senator Cruz, Congress needs to work to ensure that investment and innovation within the commercial space sector isn't effectively chilled by obsolete regulations or overly burdensome requirements that may not naturally apply to new business models.
"As we look at the future of American free enterprise and settlement in space we should also thoroughly review of the United Nations' Outer Space Treaty which was written and enacted during a different time and era in 1967. It's important that Congress evaluate how a treaty that was enacted 50 years ago will impact new and innovative activity within space as well as potential settlement throughout the galaxy," Cruz said.
"Finally, we would be remiss if we didn't explore ways that the commercial space sector, academia and NASA can look to build upon current partnerships and create new ones that can advance human spaceflight, research and discovery," Cruz said.

Laser hair removal in Westchester New York
Who wants to deal with waxing or shaving?
Permanent laser hair removal, which relies on intense pulsed light (IPL), is a safe and effective way to get rid of unwanted hair on the face or body once and for all.
At Bellava we offer clients the Palomar Icon™, the most effective laser hair removal system on the market today. The Icon is superior because it can selectively target melanin in the hair follicle for excellent results on all skin types.
In addition, all of our aestheticians are seasoned laser experts at carrying out this procedure. By choosing permanent laser hair removal, you'll never have to experience the nuisance of old-fashioned methods like shaving, waxing, depilatories or electrolysis again.
I am writing to tell you what a great experience I had at your center. I signed up for laser treatments and went there for six of them over the course of 8 months or so. I had three different technicians over that time and each was professional, friendly, and reassuring. Scheduling was easy and without incident. The result of the treatments has been a wonderful freedom from shaving parts of me I never liked shaving. Now I don't worry if I am away and forgot my razor.
I want to explain that you won't be seeing me soon, however, because you are 45 minutes away from my home, which became very hard to fit into my schedule. But know that should you decide to open a satellite office in southern Westchester (Rivertowns, please), you would see me again on your first day.
Q. What is permanent laser hair removal?
At Bellava, permanent laser hair removal is carried out with the Palomar Icon™ system, which involves intense pulsed light (IPL) technology that safely and permanently removes unwanted hair by weakening and destroying hair follicles. Bellava is the only facility in Westchester to offer clients the Icon system, the latest, most effective Palomar system available on the market today.
Q. Who is a good candidate for permanent laser hair removal?
Both men and women seeking hair removal on any part of the body can achieve excellent results with the Icon system, which works on all skin types, hair colors and textures.
Q. What can I expect from permanent laser hair removal at Bellava?
In a private room, a laser-certified aesthetician will administer the treatment using a light-pulsing handpiece over the targeted area.
Q. How long does the treatment take?
It varies depending on the treatment. For instance, it could take just five minutes for the upper lip, or up to an entire hour for full legs.
Q. How many treatments are necessary?
Since hair follicles grow in three distinct cycles (active, regressive and dormant) treatments are typically spaced six weeks apart. Several treatments, approximately 6, are needed for optimal results.
Q. What about sunbathing before or after treatments?
Prolonged sun exposure is not recommended for 7-10 days before or after treatment. If you do go out in the sunscreen should be used during the entire course of treatments.

Riot police were forced to fall back and barricade themselves inside a building as the intensity of sectarian violence grew around a refugee centre in Germany last night.
The riot turned Thuringa, Germany into a warzone on Wednesday after "religious differences" between different Muslim sects over their interpretation of the Koran led to mass demonstrations at an asylum centre in the town. The building was trashed, with windows smashed, doors and stud walls demolished and furniture destroyed. Eighteen, including six police officers, had to seek hospital treatment.
Local sources told Breitbart London that riot police were pushed back by the immigrants and journalists had to run for their lives as men armed with iron bars and stones rampaged. Fires were deliberately set and police officers were forced to take shelter, locking themselves inside a building.
Some of the extraordinary scenes have been caught on camera, as hundreds of voices scream the Muslim war-cry "Allahu Akbar" into the German night. Spiegel reports there had been an attempted lynching after one man in the asylum centre had torn pages out of the Koran and put them in the toilet. After police stepped in to protect the man, the mob turned on him instead.
The Prime Minister of the State of Thuringa has responded by ordering that in future, migrant accommodation would be segregated by ethnicity to reduce the chances of different groups trying to kill each other once they had arrived on German soil. This is the second riot at the same centre this month – two weeks ago eight were injured as inmates protested their standard of living as financed by the German taxpayer.
Overcrowding caused by the unprecedented numbers of immigrants to Germany may have also been a contributing factor. Local media reports that while the centre is rated to hold a maximum of 1,200 people, presently over 1,800 live there. Just yesterday the German government revised its annual asylum estimated upwards, as they reacted to the heavier than anticipated flow of human traffic across the Mediterranean and up the Balkans. Until this week the government reassured its people there would only be 450,000 asylum applications in 2015 – still the highest figure every recorded for the country, but what they considered manageable. Yesterday, it was moved to 800,000.

The Johns Hopkins Hospital Colored Orphan Asylum (1875 - 1924)
It was the desire of Johns Hopkins that the bulk of his estate be used for the establishment of a university and a hospital. However, he also specified in his will that in conjunction with the establishment of a hospital he wanted a colored orphan asylum built separate from the hospital but managed by the hospital trustees and operated with their funds. In 1875 the asylum opened at 206 E. Biddle Street in Baltimore with twenty six children. In 1894, it moved to Remington Avenue. In 1913, the Hospital's Board of Trustees converted the asylum into a convalescent home and school for crippled colored children who had received orthopedic treatment at Johns Hopkins Hospital. The former wards of the asylum were placed under the supervision of the social service department of the hospital, at other schools, or with families. In 1917, the convalescent home closed. In 1924, the work of the Colored Orphan Asylum ceased when the remaining orphans of the asylum reached the age of majority.
Scope of the Records
Much of the basic history of the Colored Orphan Asylum may be found in minutes of the Hospital's Board of Trustees. The few surviving records of the asylum are a minute book of the committee on the Colored Orphan Asylum and financial ledgers and bills.
Series a. Committee on the Colored Orphan Asylum, 1898-1905.
This volume contains brief handwritten minutes of the Committee on the Colored Orphan Asylum. Included is a printed copy of the Asylum's bylaws and rules.
Series b. Financial Records, 1895-1923.
The financial records are petty cash books showing daily expenses. These are primarily food and loose bills covering all types of expenses such as food, clothes, fuel, transportation, and health care.

At a Committee mark-up today, the Senate Appropriations Committee approved their 302(b) allocations for the fiscal year (FY) 2014 budget. The Senate Appropriations Committee allocates $1.058 trillion, with $552 trillion dedicated to defense funding and $506 trillion for non-defense. This is a slight decrease from the FY 2014 President's Budget request of $1.059 trillion, and a slight increase from the enacted FY 2013 level of $1.042 trillion. The Labor, Health and Human Services, and Education (LHHS) bill received an allocation of $164.330 billion; again, just slightly below the President's FY 2014 budget request ($165.802 billion).
In contrast, the House Appropriations Committee approved their 302(b) allocations in May and only approved $966.924 trillion for the total FY 2014 budget. The LHHS allocation was cut down to $121.797 billion.

During these uncertain times, how can we help?
See below to participate in our Impact Sector survey, access our COVID-19 Resource Hub, and explore our growing directory of COVID-19-specific and virtual volunteering opportunities.
To produce professional Shakespeare theatre,
culminating in a free production in Forest Park, and
to celebrate both Shakespeare's language and the artists he has inspired.
We present Shakespeare and works inspired by Shakespeare. We are in the Schools, in the Streets, and in the Park. We are about community, conversation, and collaboration.
Inspired by R. Crosby Kemper, III, the idea of a free, outdoor Shakespeare festival began in 1997. In 2001 Chairman of the Board Marvin Moskowitz, first Managing Director Lana Pepper and a visionary board of civic leaders produced the first annual free Shakespeare Festival in Forest Park. Since the initial two-week run and first season attendance of 33,000, the Festival has grown to a two-month celebration of the Bard throughout the city with annual attendance over 60,000. Averaging over 3,000 audience members nightly, the Festival has become St. Louis' premier classical theater and a main cultural attraction for the city. To lead the Festival into its second decade, Rick Dildine was appointed as Executive Director in September 2009.
Our legacy is seen in the tens of thousands of patrons and students who have participated in our work. Year-round we are engaging our citizens in the schools, in the streets and in the park. With a commitment to community, conversation and collaboration, our theme of unexpected theatre drives our creative and producing choices. Each season hundreds of supporters come together to produce Shakespeare Festival St. Louis. Unlike other theaters in the region, SFSTL depends almost entirely on the contributions of individuals, foundations, corporations and public institutions for support.
We do not follow a traditional model; we believe we are creating the next model. We're still writing our story. We're trailblazers; we're making the path together. Join us!
Shakespeare Festival St. Louis is a non-profit 501(C)(3) organization. Contributions are eligible for tax deduction to the limit allowable by law. Shakespeare Festival St. Louis' tax identification number is 43-1815139.

"We know many families are choosing to holiday in the UK this year, so the collection is a great pocket-guide for both home and away and for planning days out."
The School's Out Collection, which can be downloaded for free on the ViewRanger app, includes family-friendly routes from the National Trust, Get Out with the Kids and blogger Beth Pipe.
Routes are graded in difficulty from easy to medium and vary in length from less than a mile up to almost eight miles.
Highlights include strolls through the UK's National Parks in the Lake District, Peak District, New Forest and South Downs. There are also coastal, countryside and mountain routes to choose from.
Craig added: "We've included walks in some of the UK's most popular holiday spots. With the cost of travelling abroad, and staycations more popular than ever before, the School's Out Collection can help families explore new surroundings all over the UK.
"It can be really difficult keeping youngsters entertained over the summer, so what better time to plan an outdoor adventure? Walking is a great way for families to spend time together, it's free and of course, it's also brilliant exercise."
Each route in the School's Out Collection can be found on ViewRanger's discovery tab – an area dedicated to discovering trail guides worldwide.
The guides can be downloaded quickly and you don't need to have a phone signal to follow them. Photographs and other handy content are included and an alert system will stop you going off track.
ViewRanger also makes it possible for families to record their own walks and share them with the ViewRanger community and other friends via social media or email.

How to Trim Lilac, Rose of Sharon and Forsythia Bushes
Lilac (Syringa vulgaris), Rose of Sharon (Hibiscus syriacus) and forsythia (Forsythia) are deciduous flowering shrubs that grow in U.S. Department of Agriculture plant hardiness zones 3 through 8, 5 through 9, and 5 through 8, respectively, depending on cultivar. Lilac boasts fragrant purple or white flowers and is a spring-bloomer like the forsythia, with its yellow flowers. Rose of Sharon is a summer-blooming woody shrub that offers many different flower colors, depending on the cultivar. All benefit from yearly renewal pruning, while lilacs and forsythia can also be cut back severely to rejuvenate older plants.
Cut back overgrown lilac or forsythia bushes to ground level or 1 to 4 inches above ground level to give older, sparsely flowering shrubs new life. Do this rejuvenation pruning early in the spring, before new growth starts.
Prune out one-third of the older stems of all three shrubs each year after flowering has stopped; this will be in the spring for lilacs and forsythia and late summer or fall for Rose of Sharon. Cut the individual stems back to the base of the plant.
Head back lilac bushes at the same time as the renewal pruning. Cut stems that are taller than the rest of the shrub or that stick out. Make the cuts just above a bud, leaf node or lateral branch at the desired height on the stem. Cut at a 45 degree angle sloping downward from the point about one-quarter-inch above the bud.
Remove dead, damaged or diseased limbs at any time throughout the year. Cut dead stems back to the base of the plant. Cut damaged or diseased stems back several inches into healthy wood, making the cut just outside a bud.
Things Needed
- Pruning shears
- Do not compost diseased plant material.
- Sterilize pruning equipment in rubbing alcohol before moving to a new plant. Sterilize between cuts when removing diseased plant material.

"Lance Armstrong deserves to be forgotten from cycling," he said.
No, that would be an absolute disaster. Armstrong, and what he and his doping era stood for, should be at the forefront of minds constantly as this sport moves forward, as I firmly believe it is doing.
The majority of people involved in our sport have been involved in some kind of doping incident and there are massive lessons to learn from that, and not just for cycling. We must record what actually happened, and why.
Young professionals making their way need to be alerted to the horrors of the sport at its worst when the doping culture took over and nearly consumed a generation.
Yes, eradicate Armstrong from the record books but we should never forget. It is the story of our recent past and should be retold time and time again.
I have mixed emotions about the what we heard from the UCI on Monday. I was pleased with the pretty unequivocal endorsement of the US Anti-Doping Agency report, although to have done otherwise frankly would have been the death knell of professional cycling.
I was worried they were going to be incredibly incompetent and challenge it. There had to be no prevarication and no caveats in the culpability of Lance Armstrong. Well, they got that right.
I am pleased the UCI accepted the six-month bans for those riders who gave testimony although again it was unthinkable that the UCI shouldn't – such plea bargaining is catered for in the World Anti-Doping Agency code – and these people are strong witnesses of what happened and what should never happen again.
They can now be strong forces for the good, their testimonies offer the greatest weapon in prevention.
It was disappointing that former president, now honorary president, Hein Verbruggen's role in all of this was not really acknowledged.
There is a UCI management committee meeting on Friday and it will be very interesting to see how they handle the past.
I was also disappointed that McQuaid missed an open goal by not dropping his libel case against the journalist Paul Kimmage.
In doing so, McQuaid is aligning himself with Verbruggen, they are standing together in this in a joint action against a man who had been trying to expose the doping culture.
Just how bad does this look to the outside world questioning how cycling is dealing with doping?
The president and honorary president of a big worldwide sporting body going to court at a time like this to, trying to protect their name in what everybody knows was a legitimate fight by the journalist involved to expose what actually happened.
The rest was typical UCI – confident at times, baffled at others. Pat McQuaid was his usual self, sure of himself even when nobody else was.
Unlike some I was not concerned in the slightest when he read out the long list of riders, some of them big names, who have been caught in the last six or seven years.
I consider that confirmation of what I know to be true, that the sport is mending itself. Believe me, despite everything you have read in recent months, cycling is in a much better place.
Let's acknowledge where the sport is today, there has been a fundamental clean-up but somehow that message never seems to come out properly from the UCI.
Now you get caught unless you are absolutely on the cutting edge as a doper. It does not mean there is more and more doping, it proves the modern anti-doping system is working. It is why a young rider at the 2012 Tour de France could be sure that the race was pretty much free of doping.
It is very hard to believe the UCI when it tries to get this across because it refuses to admit its culpability for the past. The day it acknowledge its part in the past is the day we can all begin to believe fully in the future.

While we don't have an online 'shop' per se, I have recently been invited to a few home-hosted-events with an assortment of stock in tow. Attendees can view the selection online, which i will continue to add to in the coming days. If you let me (or the host) know your preferences from the photos i'll do my best to include those in the stash i bring along. Seems to be working well for now.
Baskets are simply too expensive to mail at this point, sadly. So pick up or hand-delivery are all that's on offer just now. Please message me if you're interested in dropping in for a look, I've got most of my stock in the Charleswood area of Winnipeg and a 'satellite shop' 🙂 in Landmark.
If you haven't already found us on other Social Media, we're posting regularly on the DistaffandSpindle Facebook page and on Instagram @DistaffSpindle
Click on a picture to enter the slide show.
Please see the December 2017 post for more pictures of basket stock.
Hanging ornaments are made by me with seeds and shells found in Madagascar, in addition to stars and beads hand-cast by AluMada. Check out the Artisan Profile on AluMada for a fascinating look at how recycled aluminium is re-cast into beautiful objects!
Also, for more information on the makers of some of our baskets, and a general idea of how the baskets are made, please see the 'Story' page on the Ravinala UK website. Ravinala UK is the company that manages the basket and throw-blanket making in Madagascar for many of the products we sell in Manitoba. If you've already bought one of our products you may have a tag that says 'BOO' or 'Ravinala' on it. If so, there will be a name written there which indicates who made it.

History of the Survey Program
The Indiana Historic Sites and Structures Inventory (IHSSI) of historic/architectural resources has been a continuing program of the Indiana Department of Natural Resources, Division of Historic Preservation and Archaeology (DHPA) since the mid-1970s. It is the responsibility of the DHPA's Survey and Registration Section to administer and maintain the survey data that have been collected on all above-ground resources identified since the program began. The archaeology portion of the inventory is maintained separately by the Archaeology section at DHPA.
The major impetus for a comprehensive inventory of Indiana's cultural resources came from the National Historic Preservation Act of 1966. The Act declared it the policy of the federal government to foster the preservation of our cultural resources in partnership with the states, local governments, and the private sector. In order to carry out this policy, the Act established the National Register of Historic Places, composed of buildings, sites, structures, objects and districts significant in American history, architecture, archaeology, engineering and culture. It also established a partnership between the federal government and the states, whereby each state developed a state historic preservation program to be approved by the U. S. Secretary of the Interior. To gain approval, the governor of the state appointed a State Historic Preservation Officer (SHPO) and a state review board. The DHPA serves as the State Historic Preservation Office for Indiana. Two of the responsibilities of the SHPO are directly related to the survey program. One is to conduct a comprehensive statewide survey of historic properties and maintain inventories of such properties for the purpose of locating, identifying, and evaluating cultural resources. Another responsibility is to protect such resources by ensuring that historic properties are considered in planning and development through the environmental review process.
In 1971, the Indiana State Legislature authorized creation of a state preservation program within the DNR and the DNR director was designated as the SHPO. The first full-time staff was hired in 1973 and the comprehensive survey program began in 1975. In 1978, an initial five-county survey project was completed by the Historic Landmarks Foundation of Indiana (now Indiana Landmarks) using federal grants-in-aid administered by the DHPA. Until 2008, the DHPA awarded federal grant money to local governments and non-profit organizations to undertake all city or county surveys of historic resources that occurred. On average, three counties were inventoried each year.
In 2008 the survey program underwent two major changes. The first was that the DHPA started overseeing the survey program. Instead of relying on outside entities to plan, undertake, review, and complete county surveys, the DHPA hired a staff person to manage this program. This change coincided with the move to electronic survey instead of paper survey. This programmatic shift was completed with financial assistance from the Indiana Department of Transportation and the Federal Highway Administration. Now instead of using paper survey cards, the surveyors use tablet computers that are equipped with electronic survey cards that they complete in the field, can be downloaded and reviewed electronically, and then converted directly into the DHPA's online database. We are gathering the same information as paper surveys, but technology allows for easier and faster access, better ability to correct and update records, and expanded mapping capabilities.
What are Historic Resources?
What makes something historic? Age? Design? Not everything that is old is historic, so how does DHPA decide what is and what isn't? It really boils down to making a judgment about what is important to our history and culture at a local, state, or national level. A resource that is important to your community, but might never appear on a list of nationally significant places, can still be historic.
Some resources are important because they are wonderful examples of architecture or engineering. Others are important for their connection to past people or events. While age is a factor (most historic properties are more than 50 years old), it isn't a hard and fast rule, and some newer resources (dubbed the "recent past") already have proven their importance.
It is easiest to understand "historic" in relation to buildings, but a bridge, a neighborhood, or a great piece of sculpture can also be historic. A historic resource might be a site where nothing above ground currently exists but where something important like a Native American village, a factory, or a battle once did exist or take place.
In addition to having importance, historic resources also must have what preservationists call "integrity." That is nothing more than the resource's ability to tell its story. A locally important author's home that looks much as it did when he or she wrote can still give us a glimpse into that writer's world. By contrast, if Mount Vernon now were sheathed in stainless steel and tinted glass, it would still be important as George Washington's home, but we would have great difficulty understanding how Washington lived from looking at Mount Vernon because the integrity would have been compromised.
What it basically comes down to is a historic resource has something important to tell us about ourselves and our past plus enough qualities to tell that story well.
The DHPA works to help identify above-ground historic resources through its Indiana Historic Sites and Structures Inventory (IHSSI)—a county-by-county survey of historic resources throughout the state. This program began in the mid-1970s and continues today.
Electronic Survey Process & Methodology
In Indiana above-ground surveys of historic resources are conducted on a county-by-county basis. County selection is based on the county's location relative to gaps in survey information, known developmental pressures that might affect historic resources, and anticipated results based on staff knowledge of the state's development. Other factors such as funding also enter into the selection process.
Survey and Registration staff completes initial planning for each county survey, including the evaluation of previously identified historic districts and identification of new historic districts. Preliminary research into a county's history initially guides the field surveyors to understanding a county's particular development. Once the historical research is complete, the county is systematically surveyed, township-by-township, by driving every public road. Every building, cemetery, and bridge or other above-ground resource that is at least 40 years old is surveyed. Surveyors complete a survey form, take photographs, and record a geographic reading via GPS for every property that meets these requirements and retains enough of its historic materials to be identified as historic construction. Each form records basic geographic information including county, township, city/town, address; architectural information including estimated date of construction, architectural type or style, building materials, changes/alterations for that building or structure; potential areas of significance and rating, and a site plan. The surveyor does not research the history of a property.
Once a surveyor completes records, they electronically submit them for review to the survey coordinator at DHPA. The coordinator reviews records for accuracy and either accepts records or returns them to the surveyor for revisions. Once all the records for a township are complete, they are added to the DHPA's online database, SHAARD. If the township is a small, rural area, the entire survey process many only take a week. In larger, more populated cities, it can be months before the records are complete and in SHAARD.
With paper surveys, a report was completed with a catalog of information for every property surveyed in the county along with information about the survey program, the process, and historical information specific to the respective county. As of 2011 all of Indiana's counties have been surveyed and have associated interim reports. From this point forward there will be a county summary compiled for all newly surveyed counties. These provide the same information about the survey program, the process, and historical information and also include photos of all Outstanding-rated properties and maps for identified historic districts. The summaries do not include a catalog of data on the surveyed properties. SHAARD now serves this function.
The DHPA uses the survey in two major ways. The first is determining whether a property is eligible for the National Register of Historic Places. The survey form indicates which properties are likely to be eligible for the National Register and provides information that can be used in preparing nominations. When National Register applications are prepared by owners or other interested citizens, the DHPA uses the survey data to evaluate the property's significance relative to others that have also been recorded in the inventory and to check the completeness of the information provided.
Under the requirement to protect historic resources, the DHPA uses survey data when reviewing state and federally funded projects to determine the impact of such projects on historic properties. The survey allows for more-thorough investigations of the historic resources within the proposed project areas.
Accessing Survey Information
All survey records are filed at the DHPA for public access. To date there are approximately 250,000 paper records for above-ground resources. Those counties that have been surveyed electronically do not have paper forms, and that data must be accessed through SHAARD. In addition to our county survey program, the DHPA also has themed surveys on resources such as round and polygonal barns, New Deal resources located on state properties, historic buildings on state college and university campuses, historic bridges, train depots, Lustron houses, and state-owned historic sites and structures. These records are only available by visiting the DHPA. To schedule a records check appointment, go here.
As of 2011 all 92 Indiana counties have now been surveyed and the majority of those have published reports, known as Interim Reports; however, there are a few that do not have a published report (only available electronically) and there are others that simply are out of print and not available. The DHPA has a complete set of printed Interim Reports accessible to the public. Other repositories include the State Library, federal and state agencies, regional planning agencies, city governments, and libraries throughout the state. To find out if the county you live in has a published Interim Report, go here. This list simply means that one was published, it does not mean that it is currently available outside of the DHPA or one of the above listed repositories. If you are interested in purchasing a copy of a particular county interim report, please contact Indiana Landmarks at (317) 639-4534.
All of our county survey information is being entered into our SHAARD database. While not complete, new data is entered into the database every day, so check back often for updates. It is anticipated that all above-ground survey data will be entered into SHAARD by 2017.
SHAARD also includes data from the Indiana Cemetery and Burial Registry, on historic bridges, from properties listed in the National Register of Historic Places, and on historic theaters in Indiana.
Non-DHPA Sponsored Surveys
Some local entities conduct their own architectural surveys for a neighborhood or city. Such surveys can be useful to local governments, professionals, citizens, and residents. They can aid in planning, development, allocation of funding, and increasing local support, appreciation and pride.
While the DHPA supports such efforts for local purposes, such surveys are not part of the SHPO-mandated survey program and, therefore, will not be consulted when evaluations and reviews are conducted for federal or state programs such as the National Register of Historic Places, Indiana Register of Historic Sites and Structures, environmental reviews, and eligibility for state or federal grants/tax credits.
Updating Survey Information
The DNR Division of Historic Preservation & Archaeology (DHPA) understands that over time buildings change. If a building that is included in the Historic Sites and Structures Inventory has been damaged or demolished, please contact the DHPA so we can update our database. Send an email to email@example.com with the 11-digit survey number and the current status of the building. Links or attachments to things like newspaper articles, photos, etc. to explain current situation are appreciated.
Additionally, sometimes buildings are overlooked at the time of survey. With the development of the SHAARD database, the DHPA has the ability to add a record if an oversight occurred. Qualified personnel may submit the necessary information (see below) and request a review for the creation of a new record in SHAARD. Be aware that the DHPA will only consider individual properties under this policy. The review of new historic districts must undergo a formal Determination of Eligibility.
The DHPA staff will edit, update or create a new record in SHAARD at our discretion based on the information that is provided. Additionally, as time passes and more buildings meet the 40-year threshold for survey, there is the likelihood that the DHPA will receive more requests for new records. Please be advised that the DHPA will only accept requests from counties that have been surveyed in the last five years.
To request that a new record be created in SHAARD:
- The request must come from qualified personnel with a professional involvement in the preservation field. This would include qualified professionals, local or state government agencies, and those in the history/architecture/preservation fields. Requests from members of the public will not be accepted.
- Only requests for individual properties from a county survey conducted within the last five years will be accepted. Requests to identify a new historic district will have to follow the procedure for obtaining a formal Determination of Eligibility.
- New information will be evaluated by the DHPA, and any associated new records will be created, once a month. New requests will not be reviewed upon receipt.
Information required should include all of the information gathered on survey records. This includes:
- Geographical information (county, township, city/town (if appropriate), address)
- Historical information (historic name, function, date of construction, style/type)
- Material information (current materials for foundation, walls, windows, roof, porches, and other elements)
- Condition (any changes/alterations to the property)
- Current exterior photographs
- Other information as available (history of building, etc).
All information should be sent to Amy Borland email@example.com

Maintaining the level of fish consumption in Pacific Island countries recommended for good nutrition as the populations of coastal communities grow, and as coral reefs are degraded by global warming and ocean acidification, will depend on small-scale fishers catching more tuna and other large pelagic fish. Concerted research and development by regional agencies shows that nearshore fish aggregating devices (FADs) provide one way for small-scale fishers to make this transition.
Interacting social and ecological processes shape productivity and sustainability of island small-scale fisheries (SSF). Understanding limits to productivity through historical catches help frame future expectations and management strategies, but SSF are dispersed and unaccounted, so long-term standardized data are largely absent for such analyses.
Lau Lagoon is the largest seagrass area in Solomon Islands. Dugong, fish and people depend on the seagrass. Support the efforts to save the lagoon: (1) protect dugongs, (2) respect fishing closures, (3) refrain from using trammel nets, (4) safeguard fish spawning aggregations, and (5) properly dispose plastic waste.
