Grémio Literário Rua Ivens, 37 The Grémio Literário was created in 1846 by royal charter of Queen D. Maria II, thus giving her support to the initiative of a prestigious group of writers, politicians, and aristocrats of the Portuguese liberal world. Thirty years later the Grémio settled into its present facilities, the Loures Palace, in the Chiado quarter, that elegant center of the Lisbon intellectual and social society, a characteristic building in the local romantic architecture, with decorated rooms, a rich library, restaurant, and a picturesque garden dating to 1844 and overlooking the river Tagus and the Moorish Castle. Among its members, past and present, the Grémio boats twenty-four heads of state and prime ministers.

Internet Cafes (Florence)
Hi all,
I understand that Florence is not a U.S., and as such the culture of sitting around coffee shops with your laptops sipping lattes the whole day is not really in style… however, working out of home I wouldn't mind occasionally spending an few hours in a laptop-friendly café. Do you have any favorites?
I saw only one so far: ITIT Il Sandwich Cafè at Via Camillo Cavour, 45 R, Protected content , Italy
Best wishes,

Orphan Party!
I finally decided to tackle the orphan block bin, and start organizing it by block size, instead of it being a jumbled up mess. I thought if I put things by SIZE, you know...8" blocks, 9" blocks, 6" blocks, etc...I might find a purpose for them.
Well, you can't sort blocks without playing with them a bit! And you can't lay things out without just "STARTING" to sew them together, can you?
I can't!
So I have two little orphan tops. Not too big, not too small. One is 8" blocks surrounded by 6" blocks. The other is 9" blocks surrounded by a scrappy 9 patch border, all the 9 patches were left from my zigzag 9 patch quilt, and I used other 4.5" blocks in the corners to finish it off.
FUN! I may add a border to the one with the 6" blocks around the outside....but I don't want it to get TOO big! These two tops cleared out a lot of orphans, and I can move stuff around in that box without too much effort now. I think these will be cute as table toppers, or over the back of a chair or something. The one with the 6" blocks on the outside is DEFINITELY going to be needing a tea bath. That muslin is just too stark for my liking!
You can also see that Chloe is taking her new job of studio cat very seriously! She has really turned into a lover. I was worried about her a bit, but learned that her meowing and meowing is her way of talking, not expressing necessarily her discontent. I knew she had accepted me when she would flop over at my feet and roll belly up for me to scratch her tummy. Do you hear that Tonya? I've got a kittie who gives bellies, just like Pokey! :cD
Chloe and the other kitties are now expressing DISINTEREST in each other. No more hissing, just lots of "I can ignore you better than you can ignore me!"
This morning I had to take our grey tabby girl, Emmy, to the vet...she's got some kind of abscess on her back by her hip. Hopefully some antibiotics will clear that up. I like this vet....they allow us "drop off" visits, so we just drop her off, and pick her up later. I don't have to wait in the room the whole time with her, watching them drain that thing.. :c)
Charlotte and her hubby Jerry are on their way over here, I better get the studio ready so we can SEW SEW SEW this weekend!

What neat orphans, Made into great little quilts. I must try that as I have several around.ReplyDelete
Just waiting for the next clue to the OC.
Have a fun day sewing with your friends.
Oh goody! Hubby asked about Chloe last night...and I said I would look for an update! Love the orphan quilts too.ReplyDelete
We laugh that Noodle does the flop thing too. He figures if he drops in front of our feet there's a 50/50 chance we will graze his tummy and he'll get a rub out of the deal!
what a great party! looks like it was a success! I need to take some time out and do that as well!ReplyDelete
AHhhhhhhh, Chloe is doing a great job!
Everyone needs a studio pet and sentry...I mean, what if someone broke in and tried to steal one of those ~gorgeous~ orphan block tops...Chloe will not let that happen. "Attack cat on duty" lolReplyDelete
Oh fun, fun, fun! I love some of those 6" blocks you have. I think a whole quilt of those would be awesome! Have fun sewing!ReplyDelete
I have a pizza box filled with orphan blocks. I hope they look this good when I get them together. ~jen~ReplyDelete
Chloe is so beautiful! I so wish I could have an indoor cat so lay on my lap while I sewed! And I absolutely love how those orphan blocks came together. They look great!!ReplyDelete
I really like the small orphan block quilts, and I noted that you made a comment about one of them needing a tea bath.
I have some too white or tooo.. bright fabric also, but how do you tea dye big pieces like that? It must take gallons of tea, or is there a secret dye that I haven't heard of before.
Have a great weekend sewing with your friend and I will be busy in my sewing room trying to finish my step 5 of OC. I'm half done and just love the results.
Smiles across the miles:-D Fran

A DIGITAL agency which is helping to popularise premium Scotch whisky in Africa is opening an office in Edinburgh after seeing a key contract extended.
Pilot Fish Media expects to take on staff both here and in new markets after a deal to promote Edrington Group's whiskies in six countries was extended. The firm was set up by online entrepreneur Stephen Gorman after another of his companies – search engine optimisation specialist Push Digital – was tasked with finding an agency in Africa for Edrington.
Gorman, who was born and grew up in South Africa, realised that he was as well placed for the job as anyone and set up Pilot Fish Media with his business partner Adam Gray. The pair took on an initial contract to carry out social media campaigns for brands such as the Macallan and Famous Grouse.
The company has since picked up several more clients, and now Edrington has extended its remit to both Eastern Europe and the Middle East.
"We have quadrupled in size over the last eight or nine months," Gorman said. "What we do is very niche, so we are opening in other territories."
As it seeks to continue growing its client list, Pilot Fish is looking at sites for an office in Edinburgh and expects to take on another four or five staff initially. The firm has other emerging markets in its sights – Gorman says Brazil is top of marketing departments' target lists because of the excitement surrounding the upcoming 2016 Olympics.
He needs just one or two employees to run a campaign in a country or even a continent, and often they can initially work from home. Indeed, he and Gray have turned down offers of financial backing for the company.
But Africa remains a key niche for Pilot Fish. The advent of relatively inexpensive smartphones has allowed the continent to leapfrog 20 years' worth of evolution in the digital marketplace.
In the Nigerian capital Lagos, it is a running joke that businessmen now carry two phones, so that they can browse while the other is glued to their ear. Of course, there are still problems – Gorman points to issues as diverse as corruption, violent economic cycles and power cuts.
But he added: "It's that sort of thing that's always going to make Africa a difficult place to work, but at the same time the mobile phone penetration rate is second to none, the middle class is really growing and there is money to be made."

text: Aries (March 21-April 19): The emotional charge of all of your relationships is on the move, which means there could be some extra spiciness in your relationships! Whether that will arouse or annoy you depends on the relationship, and what you make of it! Everything that happens during this interesting week, for both singles and couples, is sure to be both maddening and endearing at the same time. If you're in a relationship, expect a pleasant surprise from your mate on Tuesday. Don't be surprised if you find yourself seeking compassion instead of hot physical relations this week! Taurus (April 20-May 20): Take care this week, Taurus. Your friend and group relationships are not very calm this week, and you'll need to keep yourself in check if you don't want to ruin any friendships. Lines between friends and lovers might be blurry for a while, and as a result you may confuse a pal and threaten to ruin a friendship if you start flirting with him or her. Think twice on if it's what you really want! Gemini (May 21-June 20): Stop mixing with those who are wishy-washy with their feelings, Gemini. As you set yourself on a power path in all parts of your life (mostly, at work!), you will begin to realize you are seeking deeper connections with those you can face the world with, not someone who will meekly stand behind you. Tuesday will be the best day to find new romance! Cancer (June 21-July 22): While you'll be very open to the needs and desires of others this week, don't confuse that openness and willingness to listen with romance. We are attracted to people for many different reasons, at many different times, and this week, you're not looking at romance. While romance is on the horizon, take care to consider whether you are feeling an attraction to love, or simply an attraction to someone you can care about. Leo (July 23-August 22): Get ready Leo: you're going to get a serious boost in spiritual physicality this week! AKA get ready to enjoy your sex life and physical relationships just a little bit more, because you'll begin connecting with those closest to you on a more spiritual level, along with a physical level. Even if you're not in a relationship, you'll find yourself wanting to connect on a deeper level, so confide in a trusted friend about emotional concerns you haven't had the chance to discuss. Virgo (August 23-September 22): You're definitely going to be stirring the pot with a partner or potential partner this week: know that it's not them you're annoyed with! Your passive aggressive side may come out even more on Thursday, so be careful about how you handle your frustrations. If you're not already in a relationship, focus on yourself this week, not romance. If you start something this week, you will later find yourself remembering the rough footing you began the relationship on. Instead, aim your aggression towards your own goals. Libra (September 23-October 22): Be a risk taker this week, Libra. Whether it be because a romantic partner asks you to try something new (maybe a strange date? or a new fantasy?), or because you need to take a risk and meet new people, go for it! Be creative, play games, get crazy and fall in love once again. Surround yourself with like minded people and you will reap the benefits. Scorpio (October 23-November 21):: Stop hiding, Scorpio. Sitting and pouting in isolation is going to get your know where--you know those brooding emotions are just going to get to you. If you're single, seek a friend, seek someone new that you can trust, just seek something. Don't get stuck in the mundane, everyday life. If you're seeing someone, don't be afraid to tell them you need a little love. When you do, you'll be more than rewarded for speaking up :) Sagittarius (November 22-December 21): Be a little dramatic and dreamy this week! You deserve it. Take a second look at that attractive person who turned your head. You may find a romance in the making. Pay special attention to that someone who is close in your life. It could mean a stronger relationship for you. First love isn't just foolishness, it's also curiosity, and you are feeling curious this week! Capricorn (December 22-January 19): Don't forget about that person you have in mind, Capricorn. Even if things don't seem to be aligning right now, keep touching base. Then, when the aura changes, you'll be aware of it, and ready to make a move at the right time! If you're feeling blue about a current relationship, speak to someone you trust about it. They'll let you know if you deserve more, or if you need to change your perspective. Aquarius (January 20-February 18): If you're single, know that on Tuesday you will be like electric to everyone you meet! Take advantage of the momentum: you will come across to others as more confident and beautiful, inside and out, during this time. Be sure that you only place roots, though, where they can hold firmly. Pisces (February 19-March 20): Come out of that shell, Pisces! You'll be feeling braver than normal this week and ready to pursue that person you've had your eye on. Don't become obsessed, though, and approach this new-ness with a level head. If you're already in a relationship, your partner will enjoy how much more physical energy you have. You will too! Let's get out there! :)

Professor of International Affairs and Anthropology
Hortense Amsterdam House 101

Areas of Expertise
Militarism, nuclear culture, anthropology of science, ethics, international security, public anthropology, methods.
Dr. Gusterson's research focuses on the interdisciplinary study of the conditions under which particular bodies of knowledge are formed and deployed, with special attention to the science of war, the military, and nuclear weapons. His research addresses the problem of how to understand knowledge as a cultural formation, and how to analyze the historical and structural transformations of science and technology. He asks questions such as: How do cultures of science initiate and shape participants? How can we critically assess universalist claims about scientific and military "truths?" How do scientists justify their complicity with the projects of nation-states?

Odds and Ends
Here's an update on three things that I have blogged about:
1. As Michael indicated, the Supreme Court granted cert in Bilski. I am reluctant to say that this is the most important patent case in years, because it sounds too much like the cliche that an election is the "most important in our lifetime," which is repeated every four years. But the Justices did reject the SG's advice to deny the petition, which suggests that something is afoot. (Gratuitous citations to my business method patent paper on SSRN are always welcome.)
2. Two months ago, I posted about constitutional problems raised by nationalization. I noted then that the question of whether these firms should be treated as state actors for constitutional purposes would be important. At that time, the issue was whether AIG was a state actor because the taxpayers owned an 80% stake. Now we own 60% of GM. Does that make GM a state actor until those shares are sold?
3. The Minnesota Senate Race — still unresolved.
