This is Pdude's simplified glossary of definitions of some common terms thrown around in the Parkinson's community:
Akinesia – episodes of problems starting movement or "freezing". Sometimes occurs after stopping and trying to restart walking. May also occur in tight spaces or in transition areas such as doorways or halls.
Bradykinesia – slowness of movement – often occurring with rigidity.
Dyskinesia – Involuntary movements similar to tics or twitches, or even dance like movements. In the case of Parkinson's Disease, dyskinesia can happen: in the "off" periods when medication levels are decreasing, at high peak levels – when the brain is trying to regulate the L-Dopa (the medications), in breakthrough periods, or in those with Parkinson's who have have been on medications for a lengthy period of time and may not have enough dopamine producing neurons to convert the medication adequately into dopamine. Dyskinesia is more annoying than it is harmful – but it can cause embarrassment and other adverse social consequences. It is often resolved by lowering the medication dosage or frequency (but doing so then allows the debilitating effects of Parkinson's Disease come through). Many doctors have delayed treating Parkinson's Disease with Levadopa containing medications due to fear that doing so will initiate the person having dyskinesia sooner, but recent studies suggest this is unwarranted and waiting may delay a potentially better quality of life due to the benefits of initiating Levadopa therapy early to allow better functioning.
Dystonia – This can best be described as cramps, aches, spasms, and abnormal posturing. The possible causes of dystonia have been attributed to factors such as genetics, muscle fatigue, and the brain trying to regulate itself (as in when levadopa levels fall, etc.). Dystonia can be a genetically inherited disorder itself even in the absence of Parkinson's Disease. I think one could easily get "lost" talking about all the possible causes of dystonia or in trying to separate what is brain-related dystonia from what is muscle fatigue following a tremor or even involuntary muscle contraction. The bottom line is that dystonia involves pain, spasms and abnormal posturing. In the case of Parkinson's Disease, some experts say that dystonia only happens on the most impacted side, but many people with Parkinson's have reported dystonia happening on both sides of the body, or even an area of the non-impacted side, such as the opposing foot or leg. Common areas of dystonia include: arms, wrists, shoulders, neck, feet, arches, ankles, and back, but it has been reported in various other places including things like the chest muscles and abdomen. It can result in strange posturing such as contortions of the neck or limbs.
"On and Off" Periods – fluctuations in ability to perform tasks or to function (walking, moving, writing, etc.) that occurs with the fluctuations due to medication levels in the brain. The "on" periods are when medication levels are at their peak and the person is able to function better. The "off" periods may randomly occur as breakthrough periods or occur when the medications are wearing off, making functioning impaired.
PWP – An abbreviated term for "People with Parkinson's".
Rigidity – tightness and difficulty moving, with the muscle-tone being stiff and inflexible.
Tremor – involuntary shaking or back-and-forth movement. Tremor commonly starts in either a thumb, finger, hand, or arm. In PD, tremor also often starts on one-side of the body and then can progress over time to the other side. Parkinson's related tremor often begins as a resting tremor or occurs when the hand is in a certain posture. In early Parkinson's, it is often not continuous (not all the time and may come and go). Early tremor may disappear when one is holding or gripping something or by changing postures. It is often made worse by, or becomes harder to control during times of stress.
* I am not a doctor or medical professional. I admit these are perhaps overly simplified definitions and are not intended to constitute official medical descriptions, nor substitute for professional descriptions from a physician. I will try to update or add to this list as time allows.

First, I need to say thank you to the amazing Rachel over at Ten Hour Stitcher! I won a HAED chart from her blogoversary giveaway! I can't wait to get started on it and tell you all about it once I wrap up the cabin project.
Since I was out of town, I haven't made much progress to post, so I thought I'd talk about gridding!
I hadn't even heard of gridding until sometime last year when I first started reading cross stitch blogs, and it immediately made a lot of sense to me, as I often find myself making tiny mistakes in my counting. I decided to try out gridding with a small project and found that it helped a lot - I did make a few mistakes still, but I caught them MUCH sooner when it was still possible to fix them :)
This was my first time gridding, which I did with normal sewing thread. I was so pleased with how it worked that I bought some Easy-Count Guideline for my next small project!
The one thing that I dislike about gridding is how long it takes - putting in all the gridlines for that second project took me three hours! And that's not even a particularly large project! I love how much it helps, but I can't even fathom how long it would take to grid a HAED chart. (Though I do gather that some people grid one page at a time, which could be more manageable.)
How do you guys like to grid? I know there are things like magic guide evenweave and pens you can use to mark up your fabric. What works for you?
- Leigh
3 comments:
I don't grid...never have. I have two HAEDs and I'm using 25 count magic guide aida for both. It's not a massive help as I'm stitching one over one so the magic squares are 20x20 but it does provide a reference point.ReplyDelete
If it helps you then it's probably time we'll spent as there would be less frogging!Replies
Ha, I think you're right about the frogging! I'm thinking about maybe trying out some magic guide evenweave, but for some reason I have it in my head that I really want to stitch on 28 count, even though I haven't actually tried either. I should try to get smaller pieces of both so I can test them out!Delete
I'm not a big fan of grdding and have only ever gridded two projects. I use a special water soluble pencil as I go rather than gridding loads at once. I used to use a "48" hour air drying pen but it disappeared after only 10 minutes so was useless!ReplyDelete
Trial and error will eventually find you a gridding process suitable for you. :)

A few minutes ago I was talking to my boss around the coffee pot/water cooler and he asked how my classes are going. I said, "So far so good."
The biggest problem is that I'm taking two literature classes and its kind of hard to keep the two readings separate. The other day I had to write a compare and contrast summary of the two stories I read (Epic of Gilgamesh vs. the story of Joseph from the Hebrew bible) for my World Literature class and I kept thinking of examples from a story I read (Beowulf) for my British Literature class. I think I've got the hang of it now though, and if I don't, at least the next couple of reading assignments are a little more diverse. :) Yep, it's going to be another fun reading-filled weekend!
My boss then asked me why I'm taking these particular classes. I told him that they are lower division requirements for my 'intended' major at UC Riverside, which I've applied to and hope to attend during the winter quarter. I told him that I plan to major in creative writing and do you know what he said to me?
"That was my major!"
Sweeeeeeet! A comrade in arms! Of a sort. Because now he'll understand why I have to have a funky work schedule to work around my school schedule. Not that he hasn't already been understanding, because he has. I sort of hit him with the 'can I change my schedule around starting next Monday' question on Thursday. Since it was to take classes, he and everyone else here have been very accommodating. As sucky as this place can be sometimes they know how to make up for it.
Well, to truly make up for it they'd pay me what I'm worth, or at least what this position should pay, but letting me have flexible hours in order to go back to school in order to get a degree in order to finally leave this place and move on to bigger and better things is certainly a nice start. :)
So anyways, my boss said that he took a few CW classes at UCR, and sent a few manuscripts out into the publishing ether, and its only now that I realize that I should have asked if anything came of it. But I guess if it had, he would have mentioned it. Besides, we got so busy talking shop that I didn't even have time to ask; I was too busy asking other questions. We talked about being creative and artsy and stuff, and he made some reference to how limiting my job is in that field, and I gave him a 'boy don't I know it' sigh, but I said I try and stretch my artistic muscle when I'm making SOP's, and taking screen shots for 'what to do when you see this error message' help guides, and I make the fonts really pretty in my reports, and I play around with the colors of the bar graphs so they are aesthetically pleasing and... yeah, the job certainly has its artistic limits, but I'm making a new cubicle wall slogan with my Newest Favorite Work Saying, so I'll just have to get my daily creative fix that way.
Newest Favorite Work Saying: How may I solve your problem?
I don't know why, but it just gives me warm fuzzies to say this to my fellow coworkers. And of course, its said with the brightest smile managable! All I have to do is find some spiffy graphics to add to the new office slogan and my latest piece of cubicle art will be complete.
So its been a pretty fun morning so far. Let's hope the rest of the day follows suit. (Preferably with some more rolling blackouts that last more than a half hour, that cause the whole plant to shut down, and that leave the Powers That Be no choice but to send everyone home for the day. And if it happens, I hope it happens right now, so I get paid for four hours of work for only being here for two.) :)

Top 5 Best Pet Hair Removers
My pet family comprises three dogs and two cats, so we're working with a good deal of pet hair on our flooring, furniture, and clothes, and of course auto interiors and car seats. Following a life of pet parent and several years running a dog daycare, I have become a bit of a snob about dog hair removal tools. This listing of tried-and-efficient dog hair removal tools has something for everybody, from superior appliances to a simple family hack.
On occasion, a traditional lint roller will not do the work right when you are searching to eliminate some serious amounts of pet hair from your furniture and clothes. You will find a whole plethora of brand new products in the marketplace which are designed only to eliminate pet hair, and a few work a whole lot better than many others. From Swiffer-like device to pads and gloves, there are numerous distinct styles to select from, and it requires a little experimentation to discover which one works best for the pet's hair texture.
Here is your exclusive list of Top 5 Best Pet Hair Removers
1. Scotch-Brite Upholstery Pet Hair Remover
Consumers love this remover since it doesn't only remove hair that's sitting on the surface of the furniture, it goes a step further to maintain embedded hair, which maybe been there so long as your puppy has been living in your home. This is an excellent way to end up the difficult to reach areas that your vacuum cleaner cannot achieve and the places where vacuum necessarily leaves tufts of hair behind. In case you have friends coming over, or you just cannot stand the sight of all that hair piling up, this is a superb tool to get your home clean again.
- Quick and easy to use
- Microtrap Grippers get stuck hair out of upholstery
- Removes the dander cause allergies
Price – $27.99
2. FURminator deShedding Tool for Dogs
The FURminator comes in a large five sizes. Not only small, medium, and big, but also adds extra-large and extra small. Additionally, it comes in "short hair" and "long hair" fashions. These options enable you to personalize your choice, so you receive the ideal device for your very best friend.
Dogs of all breeds do not agree to the cleaning with this tool, therefore if pet hair is a substantial concern in your life, definitely think about picking up a FURminator.
It is the hottest pet Epilation instrument since it takes care of unneeded pet hair before it even leaves your pet. It is a grooming tool as opposed to a vacuum. The FURminator is a de-shedding brush/comb which you simply run through your puppy's coat. Since the stainless steel teeth softly glide across your furry friend, they pull away loose hairs, preventing them from ending up on the furniture or floor.
- Easy an efficient to use
- Available in different sizes
Price: $22.89
3. JW Gripsoft Pet Hair Magnet
Best for working around the baseboards and amassing hair, which no vacuum cleaner may touch. It is unbelievably simple to use, and also this specific bowl comes in a vivid yellow color. The durable rubber blade will last you for a range of years of extreme depletion. The bright color makes it attractive to dogs, so make certain to store it somewhere safe so that it will not develop into a chew toy.
Created for smaller jobs, you do not likely need to use this in your carpet. However, you'll find it tremendously convenient to little areas that collect fur-balls. It is a whole lot faster and more powerful than using a roller coaster. It is intended to function as a scratching procedure for pulling away pesky hair. Also, its state-of-the-art rubber blades effectively pull away hairs which look as though they're embedded in the cloth of your sofa.
- Work better than vacuum cleaners
- Easy to use in small areas
- Easily collect fur balls
Price: $11.88
4. Bissell Pet Hair Eraser Handheld Vacuum
First impressions is it is very compact, making it effortless to carry around, also includes a relatively broad mouth for a little vacuum. The elastic rubber shape nozzle is successful in removing dirt and pet hair from upholstery and carpets. Additionally, it will come with a challenging nozzle, used for cleaning dry messes. It's a corded version, but the cable is 16 feet long that's a fantastic long.
It's a bestseller on Amazon and among the cheapest and best value handheld vacuums to remove pet hair. Many users of the product are extremely pleased with the power this handheld vacuum may create, which is astonishing for this lightweight and little device.
- It is portable
- Light weight and easy to use
- Comes with 16 food long cords
Price: $26.99
5. Gonzo Pet Hair Lifter
Unlike a typical sponge, which you'd use moist, this one is supposed to be used dry and will operate on upholstery, clothes, and hard surfaces. It is safe to use everywhere, and such as the glue roller over, you simply wash it with soap and warm water, and it is ready to move again. Additionally, it is quite affordable, so it's surely worth a try. It measures approximately six by three inches.
- It is quite cheap
- Easy to use and less messy
Price: $6.88
The final say
With many vacuum cleaner and carpet hair removal brands out there on the current market, picking the ideal product for your needs can be a confusing affair. There are particular aspects which you will need to evaluate before deciding on the perfect vacuum cleaner. Consider all the variables to ensure you discover the best vacuum for pet hair that will meet your cleaning requirements.

TT Ipaq Sat Nav
Forum member Kop wanted an Ipaq Sat Nav system so myself and UK225 offered to help, luckily UK225 came and did most of the work as I was ill.
The requirements were an Ipaq Bluetooth Sat Nav , and sound through the OEM stereo.
The Challenge was the Ipaq has no navigation control lead to trigger the stereo mix and only has a mini jack output.
The other challenge is it doesnt seem to be a 12v device, it and the bluetooh gps are about 5v.
Kop went for a recent Ipaq but also the TOM TOM software which came with a very versatile and cool looking GPS.
As well as a hard wire charging cradle it comes with a sticky metal panel to stick on the dash of another car as the unit is magnetic it easily transports to another car.
As well as these units and clips, cables ties etc
You will need:-
A Brodit mount with cut out for the headphone minijack.
A mini jack lead with a v.low profile plug on it.
A nice switch
An additional multi cigar lighter socket.
A fused relay.
Stereo removal tools
The lower dash, knee braces and transmission tunnel front panels were removed to gain access to space to hide the multi cigar lighter..A.
An ignition switched relay B. was connected to provide the earth connection to the sat nav control on the radio via a switch A. this is to enable the Ipaq audio mixing over the radio music.
The back of the radio simply needs connection to the Sat nav control and the mini-jack output from the Ipaq B.
This installation already had telephone connections from a bluetooth kit A.
Job done, the Sat Nav works well, mixes instructions into the music and has the versatility of the Ipaq being able to be updated with software.
The Bluetooth GPS is charged in its cradle and can be unclipped to work in another car if needed.


text: Hey guys ! I love eat and I love cooking. With my family, we organize a "come dine with me". Per couple, we organize a dinner, with a theme and an activity. Last year, we made a dinner about the Chinese New Year. It's soon our turn again. And we are looking for a main theme. We were thinking about Africa. But we don't really know the culture. Do you have any suggestion for an appetizer, a meal, and a dessert about Africa. It would be for about ten people. And by the way, do you have any idea about an activity ? Should we choose a country in particular ? Thank you very much.

Chris Evans has been revealed as the highest earner at the BBC after the corporation was forced by the Government to disclose stars' salaries.
The figures reveal a huge disparity between men and woman, with 17 men earning over £300,000, compared with seven women.
The third highest-paid woman is newsreader Fiona Bruce, who earns much less than male colleagues despite also fronting Antiques Roadshow.
By contrast, Andrew Marr, Stephen Nolan from BBC Northern Ireland, Huw Edwards, John Humphrys, Nicky Campbell, Steve Wright, and Jeremy Vine are all paid considerably more.
Long-serving sports presenter Sue Barker earned just £300,000, while former England striker Alan Shearer collected more than £400,000 for being a pundit.

I had leave sanctioned between 10th to 25th Dec 2003.
I checked out with 2 agents KTDC and Kesari. KTDC standard package was expensive. Kesari was not upto the mark. So along with Mr. Jackson of Intersight I designed a package. I gave him my requirements as
1. To & fro travel by train in the KTDC chartered coach. It was Three tier A/c.
2. Three star hotels. Booking done from Mumbai.
3. Indica car at my disposal.
He made a budget for 2 people, me and Dad.
I paid Intersight the amount for all bookings. Meals were excluded from the package.
I recieved all my vouchers and boarding passes for the train here in Mumbai itself which I put into a plastic folder.
Next thing I did was bought sneakers+jacket +suitcases +2 film rolls. I borrowed a pair of binoculars from my friend Sangeeta Wani. Wani Uncle gave me 2 more film rolls.
I was now ready with all my packing carefully done in 1 suitcase, 1 soft bag for clothes + 1 bag for eatables and a sling bag for the valuables.

My rubber maids and cardboard boxes made it down from the attic within the last few days. The house has been a little bit of a wreck with my entire down stairs filled of boxes. Today is the first day it actually feels like Christmas around here. Despite not having a tree, which is a sore subject in our household at the moment. We finished the outdoor décor (for the most part), next week I'm sure the inside will be finished too.
Our house is the razzle dazzle of not just the block, but our entire gated community. (We have a secret decorating contest going on amongst our neighbors…but I don't think they know about it yet).
Last year Christmas was just weeks after we moved in, so we barley hung lights. Even then we out did the neighbors. There wasn't one wreath on a front door, nor a strand of glistening lights. This year we figured there might be some competition, so we planned for a month straight to get everything just right! The exterior is amazing and I still have many other decorations to add. And the neighbors around here, let's just say they may have a wreath on their door…maybe even a "Happy Holidays" doormat. But before I get a head of myself I guess I can give my neighbors this…it's only December 1st.
Happy Holidays everyone!

Nurturing and Supporting Healthy Babies Act or the NAS Healthy Babies Act
(Sec. 2) This bill requires the Government Accountability Office (GAO) to report on neonatal abstinence syndrome (NAS), which results from a newborn's exposure to addictive opiate drugs while in the mother's womb.
Specifically, the GAO shall report on:
- the prevalence of NAS,
- NAS treatment services for which coverage is available under state Medicaid programs,

What the heck, I'm in Japan? Last week I was in Italy and this morning I was in NYC and now I'm here.
Majorly surreal.
Japan has been very cool so far. What a different type of trip from Europe! I met my parents and sister in Tokyo this past weekend, and we spent a few days checking out the busy streets and exploring beautiful temples in the outskirts of the city. This morning my parents and I woke up at 3am (yes, you read that right) and went to the fish market. A friend of mine just recently told me about a show he watched on tv about it and how interesting it was, so I knew I couldn't miss it. We got to see GIGANTIC pieces of fish pieces and witness some of the auction. After that, my dad and I stepped into one of the small sushi restaurants next door and had the freshest sushi I have ever had in my life. I'm a fan of eel but this eel was on a whole other level. So soft and delicious, and my dad commented on how it didn't even have that fishy taste a lot of sushi has. I was very proud of my dad because he does not eat sushi, but there he was next to me eating squid and whatever else I put on his plate for him. Sushi at 6am – now that's a first!

Sofia Vergara Fights Back at Star Magazine Divorce Story
Sofia Vergara is calling the editor of "Star" magazine and idiot for claiming that she and her husband are splitting up.
The mag reports that she cheated on Joe Manganiello and so she wrote a message online to deny the rumors and posted pics as proof. She says:
"The editor of this magazine is an idiot😂if he is going to have my ring removed to created a "fake" "news" he should have made sure that he removed from social media all the other pictures of that award night in Rome where Im wearing it. By the way…thats my friend the producer of the movie Bent that I was shooting in Rome and who came to spend Easter at my home the week later.#Starmagazinebullies."
The best part is the ending…she closed with the hashtag #goinventsh*itaboutyourmother

The STFC Innovations directorate runs a number of funding schemes supporting the commercialisation of STFC funded science. The Innovations Partnership Scheme (IPS) is designed to transfer technology and expertise developed through STFC funding to the marketplace in partnership with industry and other academic disciplines. A full IPS can run over a maximum of three years. Mini-IPS also supports collaborative projects with funding available for a maximum of one year. Follow on Funding is intended to provide financial support at the very early or pre-seed stage of turning research outputs into a commercial proposition. Further information on the schemes can be found through the STFC website.
The IPS Assessment Panel is a peer review body comprised of nine members; five representatives from industry and four from the academic community representing the remit of the Council's science programme, and chaired by a panel member from industry. The Chair is appointed for a minimum of two years. The replacement is chosen from the existing industrial panel members by the current Chair and the STFC executive.
The membership of the panel initially will be for the duration of 3 years. If panel membership is extended, this will be for a maximum of three additional years.
The IPS panel is set up to make recommendations on grant applications received against the calls for IPS, Mini-IPS, and Follow-on-Funding. It will undertake this task having regard to the overall strategy and policy of Council and the Science Committee, and to the broad financial situation as advised by the executive.
STFC is committed to eliminating unlawful discrimination. Its equality schemes for gender and disability are available at http://www.stfc.ac.uk/1340.aspx. These schemes apply to all STFC committee members. Panel members should be aware of these schemes and the need to ensure equal treatment of applicants. A particular equality issue in peer review is unconscious bias. Despite striving to be objective, people often hold implicit or unconscious assumptions that influence their judgement. Examples range from expectations or assumptions about physical or social characteristics associated with gender, ethnicity and age to those associated with certain jobs, academic institutions and fields of study. A briefing note on unconscious bias can be found at http://www.stfc.ac.uk/stfc/cache/file/C1A23F1A-816B-47DD-8EC9E22A6247861D.pdf
The panel members are requested to:
The Science and Technology Facilities Council, as a publicly funded organisation, is accountable to Government and the Public for its actions and for the way it conducts its business, which must be undertaken in a way that is transparent and guards against 'potential conflicts of interest' influencing the outcome of decisions. Further information can be found at http://www.stfc.ac.uk/1822.aspx. Please note the assessment criteria on the web page are not the assessment criteria for the IPS scheme.
In general proposals will be made available on the dedicated extranet site before the panel meeting with reviewer comments and PI responses to reviewer comments made available on the site and the panel notified when these are submitted.
Panel members should note that there is no limit to the number of proposals reviewed per panel meeting but as a guide there are generally between 5 and 10 proposals submitted per call. The meeting is generally held over one or two days dependant on the number of proposals submitted for review. Any written comments will be destroyed once the minutes have been ratified by the panel.
All externally employed panel members may claim reimbursement for time given on the day of the panel meeting. Given the time required for review of applications and preparation for the meetings self–employed or employees of SME's may, upon prior request in writing, be offered the standard Honorarium day rate for preparation time. The reimbursement will for preparation time will be equivalent to the number of days taken for each panel meeting (i.e. for a one day meeting self-employed, or SME employee panel members will be eligible to claim for one day of preparation time). It is a Swindon office action to arrange payment of the honorarium and to pass this information onto the UKSBS.

Each of the following Sussex Castles were built at different times but some of them have certain key similarities. The Romans and Saxons were the earliest castle-builders; they built what we would recognise as 'shore forts', during the first to third centuries. Some of these are open to the public and others are privately owned.
Amberley Castle, West Sussex
Renovated and run as a private hotel, Amberley Castle is beautifully located at the foot of the Sussex South Downs. Open for fine dining at lunch time and in the evening, it would be worth a special treat just to go and visit it. If you can afford an overnight stay, then make sure you stay up until midnight so that you can watch the two tonne Portcullis being silently lowered for the night.
Arundel Castle
This is a fantastic castle to visit. It is very big and beautifully maintained, with the owners living on site. It was built at the end of the 11th century by Roger de Montgomery, Earl of Arundel. The oldest feature is the motte, an artificial mound, over 100 feet high from the dry moat, and constructed in 1068. Under his will, King Henry I (1068-1135) settled the Castle and lands on his second wife.
Bodiam Castle
This is a wonderful example of a late Medieval moated castle. It is in superb condition and the National Trust, who own it, allow children to try on armour. Open throughout the year, except public holidays.
Bramber Castle
Constructed in about 1070, little now remains of this motte and bailey castle; however, it is in a lovely location and is a great polace for a walk and a game of hide-and-seek with the children.
Hastings Castle
Hastings Castle is one of the most famous of the Sussex castles. It was built shortly before the Battle of Hastings by William of Normandy, who was to become King of England.
Hurstmonceux Castle
Built in the mid-15th century as a family home, this stunning moated castle is open to the public from early April.
Lewes Castle
Initially built soon after 1066, (like other Sussex castles) this castle was not actually completed until about 300 years later. It is beautifully situated in the heart of the town,it is open to the public and often used as a venue for theatrical productions. Check the details of their site for wheelchair access.
Pevensey Castle
Built originally in the 4th century as a Roman Saxon 'shore fort', Pevensey Castle has been adapted and added to over the centuries. During the Second World War, pillboxes and machine gun posts were added, under camouflage. An exhibition of and audio-tour tells the story of the castle.
Rye Castle
Part of Rye Castle, Ypres Tower, is one of the oldest buildings in Rye, and was built in 1249 as part of the town's defences. From the balcony of this tower you can look down on what was once one of the largest and most important harbours in the country. There is a great museum and the whole building is open to the public.
Wadhurst Castle
Built on the site of a building dating back to the 14th century, Wadhurst Castle today is a private hotel and wedding venue. The current building was constructed in the Regency period and the gardens and house extensively renovated and restored since the great storm of 1987.

The foundation of Supercar Street Challenge is definitely an enticing one. Exakt's racer is the kind of game that any racing fan or car fanatic would dream of making. First, you get to drive some of the most exotic automobiles in the world, including the Lotus M220, Callaway C12, Fioravanti F100, Pagani Zonda C12s, Vision CTEK K/2, Bertone Pixster, Rinspeed E-Go Rocket, and Pontiac Concept GTO. And if none of those dream machines are to your liking, the game lets you create and customize your very own race car in its unique Styling Studio.
In the Styling Studio, players can blend multiple fronts, rears, and body styles with each other to make the ultimate supercar. In addition to deciding on the basic look, you'll also be able to pick items like your wheels, spoiler, headlights and paint color and as you progress through the game with your created car, you'll earn the ability to change even more things. It's fairly robust and you can pretty much style your car any way that you wish.
The problem with all this is that beyond the cool cars and the fun create-a-car mode, there's just not much depth to this game. Sure, there are a lot of tracks -- 23 courses set in areas like London ,Paris, Monaco, Los Angeles, Munich and Rome -- and there's a variety of single- and multi-player gameplay modes, but the actual on track racing leaves a lot to be desired.
The game is 100% arcade-styled racing without a hint of sim, and while that might be all fine and dandy, the arcade racing that the game offers is pretty amateurish. There's just not enough depth to the driving and racing in the game to give you any long-term fun in the game. If you've ever played a racing game before, you'll most likely be able to jump right in and win just about every race that you try, without having to worry about the track you're racing on or the car you're driving. Yes, the sensation of speed is there, there's enough camera angles, and the races can be fun at times, but it just doesn't last that long because of the fact that there's so little skill involved in winning.
The visuals might have been acceptable for a first-generation PlayStation 2 game, but they don't quite hold up to what we've been seeing on the system of late. The infamous PS2 jaggies and flicker are as apparent here as much as any other game before it and all this is made worse by low-res and flat background textures, some pop-up in certain levels, and occasional slowdown.
It's not all bad, though, as there are some nice reflections, some of the car models actually look good and the framerate is generally solid. But, the bad definitely outweighs the good by a large margin. And the bottom line is that this isn't a graphically impressive racing game.
Even though all techno music seems to sound the same, there's a fine line between what's good techno music and bad techno music. The techno you hear in the Wipeout games is what you can consider good, while the music you get to listen to here in Supercar Street Challenge is what you can consider bad. The music is very repetitive, uninspiring and simply not fun to listen to or, more importantly, to race to.
The sound doesn't get much better when you move past the music and into the general audio effects. The engine sounds lack punch and don't offer the granularity of real-life engines when it comes to the noise they make when upshifting or downshifting.
The Verdict
I had some really high-expectations for this game and that might be one of the reasons that I'm so disappointed with it. The idea behind the game is amazing and the features offered are more than adequate. However, where this game fails is where it needed to succeed the most -- the racing. Racing around these various tracks in either the real of self-made supercars should be a lot more fun than this and it's a travesty that it isn't. I honestly could've looked past the flaws in the graphics and sound if the racing required at least some skill or was just a little more fun to play. As is, there's no reason to buy this game.

SOUTH BEND Â? Once the snow started falling Friday morning, it didn't take long for the roads to get very slick. St. Joseph County Police reported multiple slide-offs and accidents, especially along Cleveland Road, Indiana 2, the U.S. 31 bypass and the Indiana Toll Road. Police in Fulton County are also reporting several accidents.
Kosciusko County dispatchers reported more than 15 accidents and slide-offs before noon Friday.
Police say the stretch between mile marker 72 and 100 on the Toll Road is especially slick.
While police responded to dozens of accidents Friday, thankfully most of them have not been serious.
It's a family Christmas Nancy Cahal will never forget.
"I think between the two of us we've never really had an accident,Â? she said.
The Ohio native is one of dozens who lost control on the Toll Road and wound up in the median.
"Our right front corner caught the trailer and that just spun us around and we ended up going across the road here,Â? she explained.
That was just one of more than 50 accidents in St. Joseph County alone.
"It's just been extremely busy, a lot of slide-offs, a lot of small fender bender accidents and a couple that have been a little more severe,Â? said Sgt. Matt Blank of the St. Joseph County Police.
That Included one accident involving a St. Joseph County officer Â? a van was unable to stop on Ironwood Road, causing the driver to rear-end the officer's car.
Â?He did have some injuries to his back and some numbness,Â? Sgt. Blank said. Â?He was transported to the hospital."
A lot of roads saw only a thin layer of snow, but police say this can be deceiving to drivers.
Â?A lot of people think that it's not as slick as opposed to when it's a little bit deeper but the truth is, it's a lot more slick, a lot easier to lose traction, lose control and end up sliding off the road or into another vehicle or something,Â? Sgt. Blank said.
It's a lesson learned for many people, especially for drivers like Cahal.
"We were just very fortunate there was no traffic coming the other way,Â? she said.

NRA Message 3/23/2013
Last week, I went to CPAC and fired up the crowd with a simple message for Joe Biden and every other out-of-touch elitist who wants to take away our freedoms:
"You keep your advice. We'll keep our guns!!!"
You can watch my speech here. And after you watch, please share it with every gun owner and freedom-loving patriot you know.
The mainstream media is giving unlimited air time to the gun ban lobby. Billionaires like Michael Bloomberg and George Soros are dipping deep into their personal fortunes to pound the airwaves with vicious attacks against you, me, and our Second Amendment rights.
We need to counter them with the power of our NRA grassroots activism!
Thank you in advance for helping me spread this video and our message to every corner of America. With your help, I know we can win this fight!
Wayne LaPierre
Executive Vice President
P.S. We can't match Bloomberg and Soros dollar for dollar. But with enough support from NRA patriots like you, we can do what it takes to save our Second Amendment freedoms. So please, help NRA with a generous donation today. In a fight as big as this one, EVERY DOLLAR COUNTS! Thank you.

Two home invasions that occurred Friday and Saturday did not immediately appear to be related to the recent string of attacks on elderly residents of the city, police said Sunday.
A 50-year-old woman chased off four males who entered her house Friday afternoon.
At about 2:40 p.m., the female victim was in the living room of her house in the 1200 block of North Garfield Avenue when she heard a sound in her kitchen, according to police reports.
After finding no problem with her oven, she pulled back a curtain separating the room from the back door to find four males crouched together. She yelled and the suspects took off running out the door, which they had used to gain access to the house.
It was unclear whether anything was taken.
On Saturday morning, an East Bluff Peoria woman awoke to find a man searching through her purse.
The 70-year-old woman, who lives in the 700 block of East Gift Avenue, told police she heard someone in the kitchen shortly after 6 a.m. and discovered an intruder going through her purse, reports said.
The robber asked her where her money was after finding a minimal amount in the purse, but the victim said she didn't have any. The robber then fled through a side door he had forced open to gain entry to the house.
No suspects were identified in either incident and police continue to investigate.

Hello Everyone,
I have a Burnham hot air furnace. On top of the furnace to the upper left side are the pipes that heat up my basement. Those pipes are running fine and the air temperature in the basement is fine. This compartment composes of 1/4 of the furnace. The other 3/4 area heats the upstairs. The air that's coming out of the register for that side is luke warm. The boiler has a damper that controls the upstairs air flow. How do I adjust the damper? Is there a specific position or way to set the damper to attain maxium heat? Thanks.

Last Week I Decide to Tour France by Car Passing by the Main Monuments Listed as UNESCO World Heritage Sites ,but also crossing quaint villages ( most of them been classified among the most beautiful ones ) It took me 8 days in all and the goal is to demonstrate that it is very easy to travel throughout France ,and especially how efficient it is to do that by car since it allows you to stop wherever,an whenever ,as soon as you enjoy a place ,you just stop by and visit the place ! obviously it is easier during the low season ,since the roads are not too crowded and no line at all ; the goal was also to demonstrate that a qualified tour guide is supposed to feel at ease everywhere in France ,not only about museums and monuments ,but also about French culture and French Heritage ,which includes of course buildings but also food,wines ,geography and local traditions ! you can have an idea about my 8-day travel : pictures,but also short videos ( that is the rule with Instagram,only 15 second-videos are allowed ) https://www.instagram.com/christopheburtaire/

Bobbi Brown Long-Wear Even Finish Compact
Happy Friday Beauties!
It has definitely seemed like a never ending week however it's finally Friday!
This week I've been in one of those makeup moods where my foundation just hasn't behaved like it usually does. I have no idea why this happens, but it always ends the same and yes that's with me buying more makeup. This week was has been no different, this time I headed back to Bobbi Brown and started to relive my Long-Wear Even Finish Compact foundation obsession from around 2010! I used to love this foundation compact, but as a normal makeup lover I got lured away by other brands and new releases, so this little Bobbi was put away.
However Bobbi is well and truly championing my makeup stash right now. I honestly forgot how much I loved this foundation. Some foundations have a habit of turning me a bit yellow, NARS especially I find runs a bit yellow. On the other hand some foundations if not yellow can turn a bit orange. I bought this foundation in warm beige and although it looks more orange in the compact, when it oxidises with the skin it blends so perfectly on my skin that it is such a perfect shade. No yellow, no orange just perfection.
The foundation itself offers a medium coverage without any cakeyness at all, it stays put for absolute hours and it's so natural that it doesn't feel like you have any makeup on.
I definitely think that this compact is a little hidden gem, it doesn't appear to be spoken about enough, if you're after a really natural and healthy looking finish then I urge that you test this out. I shall never forget about this Bobbi Brown gem again, it's staying out on the shelf right where I can see it!
Have you tried this foundation or rediscovered an old favourite?

BOBBY BROWN is so expensive D: have you seen their prices!? its great though that it doesn't give a cakey effect xxReplyDelete
Yes, it is pretty expensive but I think their great quality products are definitely worth it! xDelete
Wow is this a cream or powdered foundation? Ice never seen this before. I know what you mean about the yellow tone it's really hard to find the perfect oneReplyDelete
Ah it's more creamy, it's quite a unique texture but it seems to work! xDelete
I really want to try Bobbi Brown products, I've heard so many rave reviews about their foundations! This little compact sounds fab xReplyDelete

They really do have such great products, their shimmer bricks are amazing too! xDelete
I've never tried it, but I would like to. Great review :)ReplyDelete

Abstract The main limitations of microplate-based enzyme immunoassays are the prolonged incubations necessary to facilitate heterogeneous interactions, the complex matrix and poorly soluble antigens, and the significant sample dilutions often required because of the presence of organic extractants. This study presents the use of antibody immobilization on the surface of magnetic particles to overcome these limitations in the detection of the mycotoxin, aflatoxin B1. Features of the proposed system are a high degree of nanoparticle dispersion and methodologically simple immobilization of the antibodies by adsorption. Reactions between the immobilized antibodies with native and labeled antigens are conducted in solution, thereby reducing the interaction period to 5 min without impairing the analytical outcome. Adsorption of immunoglobulins on the surface of magnetic nanoparticles increases their stability in aqueous-organic media, thus minimizing the degree of sample dilution required. Testing barley and maize extracts demonstrated a limit of aflatoxin B1 detection equal to 20 pg-mL and total assay duration of 20 min. Using this method, only the 3-fold dilution of the initial methanol-water 60-40 extraction mixture in the microplate wells is necessary. The proposed pseudo-homogeneous approach could be applied toward immunodetection of a wide range of compounds. View Full-Text

Artist' Statement
Nicholas Corcoran is a 39 year old artist who has been specializing in photomontage and collage for the past 10 years.
He has also been a DJ with a particular interest in the way different, apparently incongruous sounds can be sampled to create something completely new. This is the same philosophy he applies to his art work.
He uses a very sharp scalpel and vast piles of discarded magazines to create what he defines as corrupted pop art.
The aim of his work is to take seemingly trivial elements and fragments from our overloaded visual culture and appropriate and distill said elements to create new images which are intended to be political, abstract, beautiful and visually arresting.
Nicholas has exhibited at the Brighton festival. He has created work for magazines such as PIL and worked on commissions for the advertising agency, McCann-Erikson.
Art does not reproduce the visible, rather, it makes visible. - Paul Klee, 1920.

Between the extreme cold snap of early winter and increasing energy costs, chances are pretty good that this winter has been tough on your pocketbook.
And if that's the case, you're not alone — and there are some things you can do to help decrease the pain the next time you open up a utility bill. Many folks have been reaching out to energy auditors to find and plug holes in their homes that are letting heat leak out. And scores of Mainers, galvanized by sticker shock, have been jumping on social media sites to compare high bills, share their tales of financial woe and brainstorm possible short or long-term solutions to the problem.
Take the case of Patti Clark, who has found solidarity in a Facebook group for people reeling from their electric bills. The Bureau of Motor Vehicles employee said she is very conscientious about conserving heat and power in the Camden home she shares with her husband, a truck driver who spends most of his time on the road.
"We've done everything to keep our power bills low," she said.
[Customer complaints about skyrocketing electric bills prompt state review]
That includes winterizing the house, closing off rooms that they're not using, switching out a decrepit water heater for a new geothermal one and replacing aging appliances with new, energy-efficient ones. The $193 power bill they got in December felt surprisingly expensive. But it was their January Central Maine Power bill that pushed her over the edge. It was for $500, and that, she felt, could not be right.
"I just absolutely was in shock and horror," she said. "$500 is a whole week's check for me. It's terrifying to get a bill like that."
Clark is doing what she can to dispute a utility bill she believes cannot be correct, including speaking to a CMP representative, the Maine Public Utilities Commission and her local state representative. But while she anxiously awaits her next bill, she is looking into further changes she can make that will help to untie her from the power grid.
"I said to my husband, 'I wonder what it would cost to get solar panels?' We've got to do something," she said. "It's embarrassing to me to feel this helpless. I've always been self-reliant."
A Belfast woman, Kristy Pottle, had the same instinct when her family's January CMP bill totaled $653, or more than $200 over their winter average. Pottle and her husband, Denis Howard II, use heat pumps to heat their small cape house, so they are used to getting higher electric bills in the wintertime. But they're not used to bills that are this high.
"It certainly makes us want to switch to solar," Pottle said. "It made me inquire if other people in Belfast want to switch to a solar farm."
Earlier this week, the Maine Public Utilities Commission said they would look into customer complaints about skyrocketing bills and poor customer service from CMP.
Gail Rice, a spokesperson for CMP, told the BDN last week that it's not uncommon for people to call the utility this time of year about their high bills. However, some atypical factors that are in play this winter include an 18 percent jump in the standard offer energy supply price for CMP that went into effect on Jan. 1, and higher-than-normal usage because of the cold snap.
"Customer bills naturally go up when temperatures go down," she said. "This includes people with heat pumps and geothermal systems, propane Rinnai and Monitor heaters. A combination of those can cause your usage to go up considerably."
People who see sudden changes in their bills might want to check their appliances, she added.
[Regulators to scrutinize high CMP bills, customer service complaints]
"A sudden spike in usage could be the sign of a malfunctioning appliance or piece of equipment," she said.
The electric utility is offering a number of programs to help customers understand and better manage their bills and payment arrangements, such as budget billing, to average their usage over the entire year and even out their payments. Rice also said that is is important for customers to understand that CMP has no control over the electricity supply portion of their bills, which are subject to market condition.
"The delivery fees, we do have control over, and our delivery prices haven't changed since July of last year," Rice said.
Emera Maine, which provides electric delivery service to northern and eastern Maine, typically receives more calls about high bills during the colder months, according to Judy Long, a spokesperson for the utility.
"We have not received an atypical number of bill questions or complaints recently," she said.
Energy audits can help
Amy Smart of Affordable Home, a Bangor-based company that provides energy audits and other services, said that they have been busy this winter with calls from anxious Mainers.
"Some homeowners we've spoken to recently are in a place where they don't know how to pay for the next month's bill," she said. "We're happy to help."
An energy audit helps determine where a home is losing energy, and companies that do such audits usually do so by performing a blower door test. That means mounting a powerful fan into an outside door that pulls air out of the home and lowers the air pressure inside, which allows technicians to measure where outside air flows in through unsealed cracks and openings. The next step is finding and sealing gaps and cracks in the basement or attic using expanding foam or caulking.
Other steps homeowners can take to hopefully reduce their energy bills include insulating hot water pipes and heating ductwork in the basement, cleaning the air filters from heat pumps and noting the efficiency and age of the heating system and water heater.
"If they're not serviced annually or are at the end of their life, the efficiency can decrease," Smart said.
While some energy-stressed Mainers are looking into making the solar switch and others pursue making their homes more airtight, one state official would like to let Mainers know that there are still funds available through LIHEAP, or the Low Income Home Energy Assistance Program. Recipients need to qualify financially for the program, and can apply through their local community action agencies.
"We have a pretty robust program out there," Dan Drost of Maine State Housing said. "I think obviously with the oil prices and the weather situation we found ourselves in, certainly the pressure is on households."
He said that Maine will continue to take applications for funds disbursed through the federal program through April 30, and that right now the average benefit is about $868 per household. Benefits range from $160 to $2,714 per household, and depend on household size, energy consumption, energy burden and income level.
"We don't want to send any funds back to the feds," he said.

Anabolic steroid injections are largely preferred by bodybuilders and athletes over the tablet forms as the steroid injections pose lesser health risks compared to oral tablets. Unlike oral tablets, they do not contain chemical alterations but esters that provide long-lasting impacts. Moreover, injectable steroids do not come equipped with numerous side effects as these compounds do not cross your digestive system. Bodybuilders with extended cycles largely use steroid injections because steroid injections have longer half-lives compared to oral steroids. Athletes who use steroid injections do habitually get caught through drug screening tests as steroid injections take a longer clearance time.
In order to bypass this problem, some people initially take steroid injections but later switch to oral steroids near the completion of their steroid cycle and when the drug tests are likely to be conducted. You should try injecting the steroids at the higher quadrant of your buttocks, close to the waist but additionally, be careful not to touch the pelvic bone. Only after feeling the muscle you can inject the steroid. No matter where you inject the steroids but the guide to injectable steroids for sale is very important. As side effects linked with steroids sometimes turn out to be life-threatening so in most of the developed nations around the world anabolic steroids are banned by law.
Choosing the proper materials for injecting
Before you proceed to try injecting anabolic steroids, you need to understand various terms. Regardless of how the volumes are denoted, in ml or cubic cm, they are similar. Next, you have to decide where to inject the syringe, in your muscles or in your body part. Additionally, the form of liquid you will inject is vital too. Anabolic steroids that are water-based can be injected with the help of small gauge pins but oil-based steroids need to be injected with a big gauge pin. Gauge is identified as the thickness of your pin. The gauge number of pins increases with a decrease in the thickness of pins.
Benefits of steroid injections
According to an assessment,over 3 million Americans take anabolic steroids. Among them, numerous professional sportsmen and bodybuilders take the injectable form of anabolic steroids. It has been estimated that 15-30% of bodybuilders in the United States take anabolic steroids for the purpose of muscle gain. The injectable form of anabolic steroids has two types of effects, one is long-lasting and another one works for a brief period only. Today, people use short-lasting water soluble anabolic steroids. The injections lead to an enduring gain in your muscle volume, trigger the hypertrophy, generate an inflammatory procedure and grow your muscle fibers.
Artificial anabolic steroids normally copy testosterone that is popular for its anabolic features. Anabolic steroids and testosterone share similar characteristics. Athletes and bodybuilders take anabolic steroids for the purpose of gaining endurance, weight, aggressiveness and strength. Anabolic steroids are produced in a way to enhance your anabolic properties like the growth of bones, muscles, red blood cells and neural conduction and lessen your androgenic properties. However, you must always follow the guide to injectable steroids for sale as in some nations anabolic steroids are considered legal whereas in others they are identified as illegal.

December 28, 2018 (JUBA)- A South Sudanese legislator has resigned from a parliament and switched allegiance to the country's main rebel movement.
- The map of Unity state
Isaac Chiok Jany accused the government of allegedly targeting innocent civilians across the country, a practice, he said, forced him to join the armed opposition group led by South Sudan's former Vice President, Riek Machar.
A chief whip in Southern Liech state assembly, Jany claimed the government of President Salva Kiir has failed to offer the much needed services to the people.
The legislator said the country was being run by tribal cliques who have taken the country hostage at the expense of service delivery to the population.
"The nation is run by tribal cliques who have taken the country hostage and deprived its citizens of services they deserve," wrote Jany in a letter announcing his resignation from the government.
The state government also confirmed the lawmaker's resignation from his position.
"But we have received any letter official from Isaac. I think he has decided to join the opposition," said the state information minister, Peter Makuoth.
The lawmaker's resignation moments after the armed opposition's deputy military spokesperson, Col. Lam Paul Gabriel released a statement saying their forces would remain in their current locations and act only on self-defense in compliance with orders and declaration made by the rebel leader, Machar.
Lam also accused the government forces of launching attacks on their positions in several places across the country, forcing them to act in self-defense.
"On 26/12/2017 at about 13:00hrs, the Juba regime forces launched another attack on SPLA IO position in Bieh Payam in Koch County. They burnt down the base and its surrounding villages including food stores of both local produces and WFP provided donations to the suffering civilians of Koch County", he said. He further added in the same released that Yesterday the 27/12/2017 they also burnt Guol, Koatpadaang and Kuleer Villages in addition to the above mentioned areas", the statement released to the public on Thursday reads in part. Other attacks took place in western Equatoria region where government
"This morning the 28/12/3017, then regime dispatched more than 300 soldiers from Mundri to go to attack our bases in Bari, Madewu, Ladingwa and Bangalo again. A part of the team went to Gori Balawu in Mundri West County an area controlled by the SPLA/M IO. They are now looting food items and burning houses after civilians have escaped into the bushes", the statement notes.
The armed opposition deputy spokesperson said acts of aggression and provocation are expected to continue throughout till February/2018 when the revitalization reconvenes as the government aims at expanding their areas of control.
"The IGAD [Intergovernmental Authority on Development], TROIKA [Norway, United States and Britain] and the United Nations should take note of these intentional violations", stressed Lam

Refined poster idea 1
For my first refined poster design, I further combined the words and images together by making the letters form the whole pillars instead of just a bit of the pillar like in the original design, I have done this because the letters form part of the images by looking like pillars.
Within this design I have used the scale of the letters to help combine the words and images together by making the the letters really big so that they look like their are the pillars of the building. This also makes it easier for people to read from far away.
This idea links to my research because one of the artists that I looked at was Abram Games and within his work he used building to form letters and for my design I have done the opposite and used letters to form part of the building. The artist also used famous building that you would associate with London and places that people would like to visit and I have also used a famous building in Cambridge for this design and .
The successful part about this design is the fact that it makes it easier to read the letters from far away, also having the words this big makes it feel like the poster is shouting out at you, telling you to visit the museum.
The unsuccessful part about this design is that fact that because I have made the letters really big it makes it hard to fit the word "Cambridge" within the design and the word "Cambridge" is the most important part, it also makes it seem like the poster is over crowed and that there is to much going on.
I could make the design more interesting my adding in some colour to the letters so that they standout from the rest of the poster and become the focus point, this would also attract more people's attention, however I would use a subtle colour so that it still appeals to the target market.
I think that this design does appeal to the target audience because the people that I am trying to target at are 35 and older and older people has trouble with their eye sight and so using the letters really big would make it easier for them to read.
I think that this design does not meet all of the brief because although I have used images that would appeal to the target audience and words that is easy to read however because I have made the word "visit" to big I can not fit in the tag line or the word "Cambridge" which is one of the requirements of the brief.
refined poster idea 2
For this refinement I have combined words and images by placing the names of different places you can visit in the background with the museum infront of them, I have done this because it makes it seem like the words and images are affecting each other because the museum is covering up so of the words.
The message that I was trying to show was that there are lots of different places that you can visit in Cambridge. I showed this by placing the names a places that they could visit in the background and so if they like the name of a places they could visit.
This design links to my research because one of the artists that I looked at and that helped me come up with this idea is the artist Eiko Ojala, who in his work placed words behind and infront of the image to make it seem like the words are psychical objects that can be affected by the image and within my own work I have placed the words behind the building to give the same perspective. I could further link this design to the artist's work by adding texture to the design like how the artist added paper texture to his.
The successful part about this idea is that it makes the design look more interesting because the words are the only part that is coloured and so they stand out from the white and catches people's attention.
The unsuccessful part about this design is that because the words are placed behind the museum parts of the words are cut off and so people can not read what some of the words are meant to say and so some people will not visit some of the places because they can not see what it says.
To improve this design I would make the words smaller so that I could add in more names of places that people can visit, I would also make it more interesting by making the colours I used for the text a bit more darker so that they standout more from the white background and so that it is easier to read what the words say.
I believe that this design appeals to the target market because I have used fonts that are easy to read, also I used fancy fonts that would appeal to older people because it gives the design a classy feel and older people prefer classy things and I used subtle coloures which also appeals to the target market because people over 35 prefer colours that are easy on the eyes. I could make this appeal more to the target audience by adding in more names of historical places that they may be interested in visiting.
I believe that this design meets the brief most of the brief, this is because the design appeals to the target market and the words and images have been combined, the only problem is that I don't have much room for a tagline and if I was to add in a tagline then it might make the design look to wordy and some people might be turned off my the words. I overcome this I will add in a tagline in small writing so that it does not appear to wordy.
Refined poster idea 3
For this refined poster design I have combined words and images together by placing the words "visit Cambridge" inside the top part of the building. I have been this because it makes it look like the words are part of the building.
This links to my research because one of the artists that I looked at Oscar Wilson, used words to form objects, he did this by shaping the words so that they fit to look like the London Bridge, this helped me come up with the idea of placing the words inside the top part of the building and just like Wilson, I reshaped them so that they will fit. I could further link this to the artist by using more words and different colours so that it makes the design stand out more.
The successful part about this design is that you can read what the words say clearly and because the words are written very big, you can see what they say from far away. Also the words are the only part that show any colour and so they stand out from the white, making it the focus point of the design.
The unsuccessful part about this design is that the way in which the words have been placed don't look that interesting and the font that I have used isn't very interesting as well, I think that it would look better if I added in a more fancy font was that it standout some more and is more exciting to look at.
To improve this design and make it more interesting I could make it look like the words are engraved into the building, so that it seems like the words are part of the images. Also I have noticed that some of the letters are out of the outline, if I was to further develop the design I would make sure that the words are inside the outline, I would also add in something different then "Visit Cambridge" because the poster already has the words visit Cambridge and so I would place in a tagline instead.
This appeals to the target market because the people that I am trying to aim at are people over 35 and may have trouble reading some words if they are really small and so having the words this big makes it easier for them to read that it says.
This meets the brief because the colour that I have used as well as the font appeals to the target market, also the design combines words and images to together by making it look like the words are part of the building. The one problem with the design is that there is no room for a tagline because most of the space has been taken up by the words and images.

It turns out that I dont! I really did not enjoy these cookies. I found them dry, and they did not have a big apple taste to them. They were more dry cake than cookie. I used Fuji apples, it is what we had in the fridge, and the recipe made no apple suggestions. I think I may try the recipe again, but with more apples. 1/3 of a cup of apples really doesn't seem like enough apple to me. I think adding more apple would increase the moisture of the cookies a bit.
On the positive side, it was a super easy recipe! I chucked it all in the food processor and pulsed away!
- 1 banana
- 2 tbsp almond butter
- 1-2 tbsp almond milk (if needed) (I used coconut milk - didnt have almond milk)
- 2 tsp vanilla (I used extra)
- 1/3 cup shredded apple (I would suggest using more)
- pinch of sea salt
- 1/2 tsp cinnamon
- 1/4 tsp ginger powder
- 1/3 cup coconut flour
- 1 tsp baking soda
- Line a baking sheet with parchment paper and set aside. Preheat oven to 350 degrees.
- Mix all ingredients together in a medium bowl. Add a touch of honey if you prefer sweeter cookies. (I used my food processor, and I did add some honey)
- Drop cookies by spoonful onto the parchment paper. Bake for 8 to 10 minutes, or until done to your liking. (I hate parchment paper, the next time I would just grease the cookie sheet)
Let me know if they work out any better for you!!
Happy Baking!

Today me and Melissa Wood took the girls to Soho Sweets. I picked up the kids some swirlpop suckers - had a blast cleaning that up too. I picked Cole up from school, and gave him his sucker. He took a lick, looked at me and said "mommy, am I a miracle?" My heart melted and I said of course, and took a picture to remember that innocent moment!!
