Such a great time of year here, when all the birds start flying in for winter! Geese are back :) Time for the starlings to go, but they are still here, lining up on the roof top chittering and chattering...
I need to restock some of my prints and it would be great to do it this week ready for a break and a pause, but maybe the pause has started already! See you in 2017.

Paris, June 12:
A French court on Friday acquitted former International Monetary Fund (IMF) chief Dominique Strauss-Kahn of charges of aggravated pimping and allegedly orchestrating a hotel prostitution ring.
The verdict from the court in Lille was expected after a prosecutor last February called for his acquittal for lack of proof, Xinhua news agency reported.
"They have paraded the man's private life without any respect, without dignity, and without use," Richard Malka, Strauss-Kahn's defence lawyer was quoted as saying by the news channel BFMTV.
Strauss-Kahn, who was forced to quit his post in 2011 over an alleged sexual assault in a New York hotel, was implicated, upon returning home, in a separate sex scandal, including procuring prostitutes for sex parties in Paris, Lille and Washington from 2008 to 2011.
He stood, alongside 13 co-defendants, charged with "aggravated pimping".
Strauss-Kahn has admitted to being present at the orgies but has always maintained that he did not know that some of the women involved were being paid.
The verdict brings to a close four years of legal proceedings against Strauss-Kahn, including charges of attempted rape which were later dropped in 2012, a BBC report said.
Sex workers described his rough behaviour at some of the parties. But, Strauss-Kahn said that he was not on trial for "deviant practices".
During the closing arguments at his trial, Lille prosecutor Frederic Fevre told the court that they were "working with the penal code, not the moral code".
Fevre also said that neither the investigation nor the evidence in court had established that he was guilty.
Earlier, five of the six plaintiffs in the case dropped their accusations against him.
Under French criminal law, pimping is punishable with 10 years imprisonment and a 1.5-million euro ($1.68 million) fine. Pimping is defined as an activity which helps prostitution, profiting from, or hiring a person for prostitution.
Strauss-Kahn, who was considered a viable presidential candidate to compete for the country's top job in 2012, saw his political career end after his May 2011 arrest in New York over rape charges made by a Sofitel Hotel room-cleaner, Naffisatou Diallo.
After the charges were dropped, the ex-IMF boss kept his distance from France's political life, leaving the way open to Francois Hollande to win the race to the Elysee Palace three years ago. (IANS)

I had been so excited all week as my 3-monthly tune up was approaching. I knew I would do well as I had been picking up so many little things on a daily basis. At my workplace, I am beginning to hear people saying the odd sentences in the background.
Yesterday, I met Sarah, one of the Audiologists who I never met before. She tested the sounds by me pressing the button using my CI and hearing aid so she can update my audiogram and see if there was any change from the previous one. The result was at 15dB(HL) across the frequency range tested (250Hz – 4 kHz). I then did the same test as before (without lipreading) and my BKB score was 84% keywords correct. That had improved from 61% at 1 month post. I was so chuffed!!

This post, btw, is the year's first overtly devoted to the deficiencies of the (nearly) universal classification system employed by APPA and supported by the PSP. (Or vice versa. Whatever.)
The prior post published entitled, 'One Undeniable Truth About Paintball' was an introduction for today's post (and in case you failed to pick up on it was about so-called sandbagging. Now go back and read it again. Puts a different spin on things, doesn't it?)
Not so long ago there was a robust national scene--until there wasn't--while competitive paintball at the local level was frequently a free-for-all. Within this time frame the national level format was changed dramatically, a competing league evolved, the industry hit a brick wall and the turn out for traditional 5-man began eroding at the national level.
Within that environment the original classification system was introduced. It was considerably cruder than the present version. As most of you well know it not only classifies players but also engages in the redistribution of talent by formulaic determination of where a given player can or cannot play. It does so based on team rosters and team results. It does not--because it can not--evaluate and rate the player's performance. That means if a team rosters 12 players and 6 or 7 of them play most of the points all 12 are treated identically by the system.
By the numbers somewhere around 15% of a divisions competitors will be moved up a rank by season's end. Given however that multiple scores are required the teams that compete more frequently are effectively ranked up at a rate greater than 15%. The result tends to diminish the standard of competition in that division from year to year and elevate some teams and players who prove unprepared or unable to compete at the next level--and the end result of that is a significant attrition rate among teams and players.
(The gist of the counterargument is that teams and players quit everyday regardless of division of play and the life cycle of a competitive player is around 4 years so it's important to keep the up-and-comers motivated and with places to go.)
However even assuming all of that is correct shouldn't there be a focus on and an effort made toward retaining as many players and teams as possible while upholding a standard of competition that makes the divisions meaningful tiers of accomplishment?
For a league, an industry and current players everywhere concerned the sport is in decline isn't it rather foolish to be actively driving away players who want to play the game in the name of a formulaic fairness?
Next time, All Paintball Is Local.

Manchester United are ready to launch a £15m offer for Daley Blind after missing out on Thomas Vermaelen, according to reports from The Mirror.
Louis van Gaal was understood to have made the former Arsenal captain his top target for the remainder of the summer, but it was announced yesterday that the Belgian is now a Barcelona player.
Although angered by the setback, the new Red Devils chief is ready to respond by launching a raid for Blind.
WANT MORE? >> Manchester United transfer news | Latest transfer news
The versatile Dutchman starred in LVG's Holland side at the World Cup, earning many plaudits for his composed displays.
He can play at centre-back or centre-midfield, although he is more comfortable in the left-hand side of the backline.
A £15m offer for the 24-year-old is set to be tabled in the coming days, with Ajax understood to be resigned to losing their star.
Blind himself has also opened the door to a move:
"What will I do when Louis van Gaal tells me he wants me to come to Manchester United? I will consider it.
"The World Cup has been a massive boost for my experience and I have made no secret that I will listen when a nice offer comes my way."

Einstein Was Right! Hardback
by Karl (University of Illinois, Urbana, USA) Hess
All modern books on Einstein emphasize the genius of his relativity theory and the corresponding corrections and extensions of the ancient space-time concept.
However, Einstein's opposition to the use of probability in the laws of nature and particularly in the laws of quantum mechanics is criticized and often portrayed as outdated.
The author of Einstein Was Right! takes a unique view and shows that Einstein created a "Trojan horse" ready to unleash forces against the use of probability as a basis for the laws of nature.
Einstein warned that the use of probability would, in the final analysis, lead to spooky actions and mysterious instantaneous influences at a distance.
John Bell pulled Einstein's Trojan horse into the castle of physics.
He developed a theory that together with experimental results of Aspect, Zeilinger, and others "proves" the existence of quantum nonlocalities, or instantaneous influences.
These have indeed the nature of what Einstein labeled spooky.
Einstein Was Right! shows that Bell was not aware of the special role that time and space-time play in any rigorous probability theory.
As a consequence, his formalism is not general enough to be applied to the Aspect-Zeilinger type of experiments and his conclusions about the existence of instantaneous influences at a distance are incorrect.
This fact suggests a worldview that is less optimistic about claims that teleportation and influences at a distance could open new horizons and provide the possibility of quantum computing.
On the positive side, however, and as compensation, we are assured that the space-time picture of humankind developed over millions of years and perfected by Einstein is still able to cope with the phenomena that nature presents us on the atomic and sub-atomic level and that the "quantum weirdness" may be explainable and understandable after all.

Find the Best Plan in Your Area
Find The Right Dentist For You
How can a person know if they are taking proper care of their smile? One way is to follow the guidelines set forth by professional organizations such as the American Dental Association. However, a recent article published by the Huffington Post highlighted several other oral hygiene practices that may help people avoid dental disease.
The newspaper reported that the average person spends only about one minute brushing their teeth during each cleaning session, but this only removes 60 percent of the plaque that exists in one's mouth. Therefore, the news provider recommended that individuals aim to brush for at least two minutes, starting with the areas that are closest to their tongues, since these spaces are most likely to gather food debris and bacteria.
While cleaning teeth is important, these structures only make up about 20 percent of the mouth's surfaces, the news source explained. Antimicrobial mouth rinse can be swished around inside the mouth to reach and clean the other 80 percent of surface areas.
According to the National Institute of Dental and Craniofacial Research, a total of 92 percent of adults between the ages of 20 and 64 have at least one cavity. This statistic highlights the need for improved dental hygiene among Americans.

Napoleonic maneuvers in Valtice
Napoleonské manévry ve Valticích
Valtice, Břeclav (South Moravian Region)
about 150 napoleonic re-enactors will take part at the event that will offer the visitors a unique possibility to see the military life in the early 19th century in the amazing setting of the Valtice Castle in Czech Republic...
Geographical, cultural and historical context
Valtice is a small town in South Moravian Region in the Czech Republic, situated 265 kilometres south-east of Prague, on the Austrian border. Valtice contains one of the most impressive Baroque residences of Central Europe, Valtice Castle, that was designed as the seat of the ruling princes of Liechtenstein in the early 18th century. Together with the neighbouring manor of Lednice, to which it is connected by a 7 kilometres long lime-tree avenue, Valtice forms the World Heritage Site Lednice–Valtice Cultural Landscape.
The family of Liechtenstein were active and important participants of the Napoleonic Wars, thus, Valtice commemorates both the beginning of the first Italian campaign (1796) and the battle of Austerlitz (1805), which involved men from the Liechtenstein family. Among them Johann I, prince von Liechtenstein (1760-1836) commanded the cavalry corps and then negotiated the conditions of armistice with Napoleon.
Event description and programme
The beautiful Valtice Castle and park host in Spring the "Napoleonic Days", the annual maneuvers of the units of the Central European Napoleonic Society, involving hundreds of the napoleonic reenactors to offer the visitors an opportunity to see the military life of the early 19th century. Besides the military camp and battle demonstrations, the visitors are able to discover the daily life, weapons and uniforms of the soldiers and other features of the period.

I came up with this idea to work towards a 6:30 pace for my 5k. This was my first attempt. I was familiar with this course and knew that it was a flat, fast course. Plus, I would have some good competition at this race.
Here I am at one point in the race. What I notice about this picture is that I lost my form. I was heal striking at this point…..ugh! I have been working hard on my form and when I am training, I am able to keep my form. But, I notice that when I race, I lose my form.
Here I am crossing the finish line.
And, this is so typical of me……What's my time? Did I meet my goal? Well, unfortunately, I did not meet my goal, but I was closer to it (6:42 pace). No worries, there's another chance in a few weeks! After all, if I hit my goal after 1 race, it wouldn't have been much of a challenge.

The latest incident of a cyclist being targeted with violence by a motorist comes from Asheville, North Carolina. In the video below caught by a commercial vehicle that just happened upon the scene, an unnamed rider gets sucker punched in the face by a driver that the Asheville Citizen Times reported to be Claude Donald Watson. The 74-year-old was later charged with assault and reckless driving to endanger. The video was obtained by the organization Asheville on Bikes, which posted it to YouTube where it currently has over 135,000 views.
According to a report from The Charlotte Observer, witnesses said the motorist became angry while trying to pass the rider in a construction zone. The motorist allegedly attempted to run the cyclist off the road just before the assault was recorded. The only words spoken were said after the punches were thrown, when the driver said, "Get off the f*#king road."
Two people stopped to help the biker, including a woman who got out and shook her fist at the suspect, prompting him to drive off. Watson told the Observer that the incident erupted when the bicyclist "got in the middle of the road" and refused to let anyone pass.
"I wasn't trying to run him down. If I was going to do that, I'd have done it a mile back," Watson said. "And when I did get by him, he was a cursing and flipped me the bird. You know what that is? I don't like nobody a cursing me and stuff. I don't know what was wrong with him."
Back atcha, Mr. Watson. Perhaps it's time for a little anger management counseling…

Rio de Janeiro police posts attacked
RIO DE JANEIRO (AP) — Rio de Janeiro police say suspected drug gang members have attacked three of the so-called police pacification posts set up recently in slums.
At least one policeman was shot and wounded Thursday night, while the police outpost — a cluster of metal shipping containers — located near the slum that Pope Francis visited last year was burned.
It's the latest violence to hit Rio just before the city is set to host several matches during the World Cup.
Since 2008, police have pushed into slums and driven out drug gangs, who lorded over vast swaths of Rio for decades. In an effort to secure the city ahead of the World Cup and 2016 Olympics, police then installed permanent posts.
The effort has reduced murders and shootings in the slums. But drug gangs have recently begun striking back.

Question-Answers of Poverty as a Challenge (Q&A of Poverty as a Challenge)
Q.1: Describe how the poverty line is estimated in India.
Ans: In India poverty line is measured or calculated considering the following factors required for subsistence:
1. Minimum level of food requirement,
2. Clothing
3. Footwear
4. Fuel and Light
5. Education and
6. Medical requirement etc.
These physical quantities are multiplied by their prices. The present formula for food requirement is based on the desired calorie requirement. On the basis of these calculations in 1999 - 2000, the poverty line in the rural areas was fixed Rs.328 per capita per month and in urban areas, it was Rs.454. People earning more than this amount were considered above the poverty line and earning less than this amount were considered as living below the poverty line.
Q.2: Do you think that present methodology of poverty estimation is appropriate?
Ans: The present methodology of poverty estimation does not look appropriate. It only takes one factor in view and that is the economic factor. Moreover it considers about a "minimum" subsistence level of living rather than a "reasonable" level of living.
Poverty has many dimensions. It is no longer confined to economic factors alone. With development, the definitions of what constitutes poverty also changes. Its concept has broadened to human poverty. A few persons may have been able to feed themselves but if they are without education, without shelter, without health-care, without job security, without self-confidence, without social equality, they are considered poor. If poverty is to be removed in real sense and the people are to be brought above the poverty line, not only that we need to increase their income but also, we have to provide the people with education, shelter, health-care, job-security, respect, dignity all.
Therefore, the present methodology of poverty estimation needs to be modified and broadened in order to make it an appropriate method.
Q.3: Describe poverty trends in India since 1973.
Ans: As per the data given in the book there is a substantial decline in poverty ratio in India from 55 percent in 1973 to 36 percent in 1993. There was further decline from 36 percent in 1993 to 26 percent in 2000. Although the number of poor people remained stable (about 320 million) in the earlier two decades (1973 to 1993), there was significant reduction in the number of the poor to about 260 million till 2000. If the present trend continues, the people below poverty line may come down to less than 20 percent in the next few years.
Q.4: Discuss the major reasons for poverty in India.
Ans: There are various reasons for poverty in India which are outlined below -
(1) Prolonged Colonial Administration
The policies of British Colonial government shattered the Indian economy so much that it could not be revived until the 1980s.
(2) Unabated Population Growth
The failures to promote both the required economic growth and population control have been the main cause of poverty today.
(3) Illiteracy
Illiteracy is also an important cause of poverty in our country.
(4) Disparity in the Ownership of Land-holdings
The unequal distribution of land, lack of land resources and failure in the proper implementation of land reform policies have been the major causes of poverty in rural areas.
(5) Unemployment
Lack of job security and unemployment are other causes.
(6) Widening Inequalities of Income
This is a feature of high poverty. Money has been concentrating in fewer hands, thus rendering a majority of people poor.
(7) Slow Growth of Employment Opportunities
Despite the implementation of various employment generating programmes our government has failed to provide the necessary employment opportunities.
(8) Socio-cultural Factors
In order to fulfill social obligations such as marriage etc. and religious ceremonies people in India including the poor spend a lot of money which makes some people even poorer.
Q.5: Identify the social and economic groups which are most vulnerable to poverty in India.
Ans: Social Groups vulnerable to Poverty in India
(1) Scheduled Castes households.
(2) Scheduled Tribes households.
Economic Groups vulnerable to Poverty
(1) Rural Agricultural labour households.
(2) Urban Casual labour households.
Q.6: Give an account of interstate disparities of poverty in India.
Ans: Poverty in India is not the same in every state. The success rate of reducing poverty varies from state to state causing inter-state disparities in poverty level. Orissa, Bihar and Madhya Pradesh are the three poorest states in India with their people living below poverty line being 47, 42 and 37 percent respectively. Jammu and Kashmir, Punjab and Himachal Pradesh are the three better-off states in India as far as the poverty is concerned.
Q.7: Describe global poverty trends.
Ans: There have been substantial reduction in global poverty, but there are regional disparities described below -
(1) Poverty declined in China and South-East Asian countries as a result of rapid economic growth and huge investments in the development of human resources.
(2) In Latin America, the ratio of poverty remained almost the same.
(3) In sub-Saharan Africa, poverty saw an upward trend rather than a downward trend. It rose from 41% in 1981 to 46% in 2001.
(4) Poverty ha surfaced itself in some of the former socialist countries like Russia, where formerly it was non-existent.
Q.8: Describe current government strategy of poverty alleviation.
Ans: Removal of poverty has one of the major objectives of Indian developmental strategy. The current government strategy of poverty alleviation is based on two planks:
(1) Promotion of Economic Growth
(2) Targeted Anti-poverty Programmes
Some of the anti-poverty programmes undertaken by government at present are discussed below:
Prime Minister's Rozgar Yojana (PMRY)
Started in 1993, this programme aims to create self-employment opportunities for educated unemployed youth in rural areas and small towns.
Pradhan Mantri Gramodaya Yojana (PMGY)
Launched in 2000, this aims to create and improve basic services like primary health, primary education, rural shelter, rural drinking water and rural electrification.
National Food for Work programme (NFWP)
Launched in 2004 in 150 most backward districts of the country, this programme is open to all rural poor who are in need of wage employment and desired to do manual unskilled work.
National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA)
This act was passed in September 2005. The act provides 100 days assured employment every year to every rural household in 200 districts. Later, the scheme will be extended to 600 districts and also one third to the proposed jobs would be reserved for women.
Q.9: Answer the following questions briefly -
(i) What do you understand by human poverty?
(ii) Who are the poorest of the poor?
(iii) What are the main features of the National Rural Employment Guarantee Act 2005?
(i) Poverty is multidimensional problem. As per the official concept of poverty, a person is considered poor if his or her income falls below a given 'minimum level'. But human poverty is not confined to economic factors alone. With development, the definitions of what constitutes poverty also changes. The official definition of poverty considers only a 'minimum' subsistence level of living rather than a 'reasonable' level of living. Many scholars advocate that the concept of human poverty must be broadened and should be looked through other social indicators like - illiteracy level, lack of general resistance due to mal-nutrition, lack of access to resources like health-care, safe drinking water, job opportunities, sanitation, lack of self-confidence without social equality etc.
(ii) Women, children (especially the girl child) and elder people in a poor family are regarded as the poorest of the poor because they are systematically denied equal access to resources available to the family.
(iii) Main Features of National Rural Employment Guarantee Act, 2005
(a) NREGA provides 100 days assured employment every year to every rural household in 200 districts. Later, the scheme will be extended to 600 districts. One-third of the proposed jobs would be reserved for women.
(b) The central government will establish a National Employment Guarantee Fund. Similarly, state governments will establish State Employment Guarantee Funds for the implementation of the scheme.
Q.10: Explain four important anti-poverty measures undertaken by the Government of India.
Ans: Poverty Alleviation Programmes of India: The important poverty alleviation programmes which are in operation in rural and urban areas are:
(1) Prime Minister Rojgar Yojana (PMRY): PMRY was launched on 2 October 1993. The aim of this programme is to create self-employment opportunities for educated youth in rural areas and small towns. They are helped in setting up small business and industries.
(2) Swarna Jayanti Gram Swarojgar Yojana (SGSY): SGSY was launched on 1 April, 1999. It aims at promoting enterprises at the village level. It helps the rural people to organise themselves into self-help groups. The objective of SGSY is to bring the existing poor families above the poverty line by providing them income generation assets through a mix of bank credit and government subsidy.
(3) Pradhan Mantri Gramodaya Yojana (PMGY): PMGY was introduced in 2000. Its objective is to focus on village level development in five critical areas, that is, primary health, primary education, rural shelter, rural drinking water and rural roads. As a result of this, the quality of life of rural people will improve.
(4) Sampoorna Grameen Rojgar Yojana (SGRY): This programme was launched in September 2001. The objectives of this scheme are
(a) to provide wage employment along with food security in the rural areas.
(b) to create durable community, social and economic assets.
The ongoing Employment Assurance Scheme and JGSY would be merged with SGRY.
(5) National Rural Employment Guarantee Act (NREGA): NREGA was passed in September 2005. The Act provides for 100-days assured employment to every rural household in 200 districts. Later, the scheme will be extended to 600 districts.
However, the results of these programmes have not been very effective. One of the major reasons for their less effectiveness is the lack of proper implementation and right targeting.
Also, there has been overlapping of schemes. Therefore, the major emphasis in recent years is on their proper monitoring.

As more people in my "real" life run across this blog, I find that I censor myself more. Which sort of defeats the purpose I had for this blog to begin with. That makes me sad. I'm not, by nature, a confrontational person. I'm the one that ends the fights, not the one that starts it. To the point that I find that I don't stand up for myself when I should.
A week ago while I was in Seattle on vacation J called me and read me the riot act about having brought Shush up there with me. He didn't want M to get mixed messages about whether or not HE agreed with MY dating while the divorce was still pending. Okay. Fair enough. I think it's not a necessary concern since M is 15 and a pretty sharp kid, but okay. For almost 30 minutes he lectured me up one side and down the other about it. I stood up for myself far more than I normally do, but still, he dug in when he could with comments like "I guess it's your life and I don't have to agree with your choices anymore", and "I just don't want M around 'that kind of thing'". I was furious, I felt attacked, but he IS her other parent and does get to voice his opinion in what she is and is not exposed to. That said, Shush and I have been together since July, and have known each other for about a year. We live together, this isn't just a 'fling'.
AND THEN. Oh, yes, and then.
THEN, about two days later he tells me he's bringing a girl he's been dating for THREE WEEKS up there with him for Christmas. For the record, I'm GLAD he's dating. I'm glad that he's found a nice girl to hang out with and I'm glad that they like each other enough that they want to spend the holiday's together.
What I'm furious about is that he thought it was okay to try and make me feel terrible for having done the same thing. Seriously. Why is it okay for him ? Is it because *he's* the "wronged party" in this divorce? Because he's the one who got left, it's okay for him to move on? Is it because "everyone" (oh, yes, the ever present "everyone" gets a voice in this one too) is "worried" about him, that it's okay for him to bring a girl, but I, the one who "everyone" thinks "is making bad decisions" can't? Or is this some sort of score that needs to be settled? Some "Oh yeah? Well, *I* can move on too! See?". Either way, if he was even CONTEMPLATING taking her with him when he called me then yelling at me was not "being a concerned parent" it was being an asshole. And I thought we were past that. I thought that we'd agreed that we were going to do this differently. I know I've tried. But this? This is exactly why we had problems before.
Why can't I let this go? I didn't say anything to him about it, because, well, I have fought with him enough to last me a lifetime. It's seriously bothering me.

I think you're totally justified in being upset and the fact that you're even giving him the benefit of the doubt in letting him have an opinion at all (which is more than I would do) shows how much more adult you're being about it. But, there's nothing you can do about it. Being upset lets him win, be the better person and smile and be friendly and he can eat crow for dinner.

I'd kick his ass all over hell and back for the double-standard bullshit.
Unfortunately, I've seen this damn-near exact situation with another friend: chances are really good that the new "girlfriend" is a pathetic attempt to make you jealous, and the whole Christmas ploy is more of the same with the added bonus of lording his King of the Jungle status over you.
I hate to say it (because I'm vindictive as hell when someone hurts my friends, so want to see him suffer), but I agree with KAErk: if this is all just a ploy to get at you (for whatever reason), turning the other cheek will frustrate him FAR more than if you lay into him - he'd "win" in that case.
Love you, doll.

I think he is hurt. He is reacting this way to ease his pain. He wants family to know that he has moved on too by taking a friend with him for the holidays.
And yes make you jealous.
I dated while married. we lived together during the divorce phase too. Sometimes that's just the way it goes.
I miss you. Stay strong.

post, Seamless Crochet is a yet another awesome book by Kristin that you will want to get. You will learn a new technique on how to crochet "granny" squares seamlessly without having to weave tons of loose ends. Kristin's mentioning that the techniques is "old" technique; but it is probably new to most of us.
|Blue Skies Bulky Cowl
My first project will be the Market Bag. In my area, stores have to charge customers for each bag they will "give" away, so to have a stylish and unique bag handy is a must. :)
And here is the promised interview with Kristin. Before we start I want to say that Kristin is such a nice person - beautiful inside out. Not only she's very beautiful as you can see (she was a model for several years when she was 12-17 yrs old), but she is very, very nice and easy to to talk to. I don't claim to know her very closely, but the several times I've met her, or we went out to dinner with her and other designer friends, she was so, so nice and fun.
|Kristin Omdahl
Simona: What inspired you to write this book?
Kristin: I saw a 4-color chart for this technique years ago and have been exploring with it for a long time. I wanted to figure out how to modify any crochet motif and even manipulate those motifs to create shaping. My goal was to write the book if I could accomplish all that. I wanted to write a book that could be a reference library addition as well as a pattern book. And the bonus is that I made a 1-hour DVD workshop, included in the book, as an added learning tool.
Simona: How do you chart all your designs? Do you do it all by hand or
you have a special software you use?
Kristin: It depends on how much time I have! I am not an expert at Illustrator, so it takes me a long time to make a rudimentary chart. If my charts are going to be made by someone in-house at the Pulisher's office, I will hand-draw them. I'm way better at sketching than I am at Illustrator.
Simona: What is your favorite project in Seamless Crochet and why?
|Buttercup Baby Blanket
Simona: How do you invent new motifs? Do you just "dream" them up; do you play with yarn and see what happens; or do you chart out and engineer your motifs first?
Kristin: All of the above! It depends on how or where I am inspired. Occasionally I need to chart or sketch first to see if it will work geometrically, but most of the time I prefer to grab yarn and get started. Trial & error is a great learning tool.
|Lace Flower Hat
Kristin: I love coming up with the concept in the first place! The planning part is fantastic because anything is possible. As the items get checked off the to-do list, the accomplishments feel pretty good, too. The surprising part to me is that turning in the manuscript is not a highlight to me. As an entrepreneur, it means it's time to find a new job. But oftentimes, I have already found one or more! I feel very fortunate about that.
Kristin: I love to work out. Playing my piano and guitar are my zone-out times. Singing & playing guitar simultaneously takes just enough brain power to distract me from everything else going on. I love that. I love to cook. And, my new fascination is jewelry making. I'm excited about it and thinking of ways to incorporate it into my knitting and crochet business. I also LOVE to cook and especially come up with healthy modifications and my own recipes.
Simona: I know you like fitness and lead a healthy lifestyle. If I am not mistaken, you are an avid runner and ran a half marathon?
Kristin: I actually ran a full marathon 2 years ago (26.2 miles!) That was a one-time deal, though. I still run barefoot on the beach, but I prefer working out with weights in the gym. I'm trying to transform my body right now. I'm working out in a gym 3x a week, doing cardio (running or riding my bike) 3x a week and trying to eat very, very healthy. I am working on a crochet swimwear collection and my goal is to wear it! I figure you can't talk the talk without walking the walk. I don't want to be in supermodel shape, but I want to be the best Marilyn Monroe shape I can be.
Simona: Wow Kristin, you are very inspiring just like your knit and crochet designs! It is amazing that you ran a marathon! Marathon!!!?? Really? I've been running for years but I have not ever thought I could do that. You are very determined and you will get your swimwear bod - no question in my mind. Thank you for sharing! It will make most of us to want to get to the gym tomorrow. :)
Thank you for the interview. And I am looking forward to seeing you in Columbus.
Are you also inspired by Kristin? Oh my, I am. I can't wait to see the swimwear collection.
So if you are ready to give the seamless technique a try, and I know you are, please leave a message in the comments. Let me know what inspires you, what your goals are, or what is your favorite project in this book, or which one is the first one you'd love to make. Please comment by midnight EST, February 19th, 2012. I will draw a winner at random on February 20th, 2012. Good luck!

Rob Hendrickson came into last season expecting his Shiocton HS (Wisc.) women's basketball team to be "really good" and potentially contend for the state title.
But the Chiefs, submarined by a spike in turnovers, lost their first three games. A frustrated Hendrickson turned to Hudl to figure out why his squad had become so mistake-prone.
The third-year head coach quickly drilled the miscues down to three distinct areas: not coming to a jump stop when passing, using one hand to pass and immediately dribbling once the ball was caught. He made a short highlight reel of these plays and presented it to the girls at the next practice.
"We will no longer be doing these things," Hendrickson told his team. "This is a new rule. We're going to jump stop on everything."
After averaging 27 turnovers in its first three contests, Shiocton dropped to 17 in their next game, a victory. That kicked off a six-game winning streak, and the Chiefs eventually made it to the regional championship game.
Using Hudl's advanced reports, Hendrickson was able to filter all Shiocton's turnovers with a single click. By shuffling through that list he was able to identify the team's biggest weaknesses and get them corrected before the season was lost.
"Hudl was directly responsible in the ease of being able to locate those inadequacies and being able to adjust them throughout practice," Hendrickson said. "I would have been able to find (the turnover issues without Hudl), but it would have taken me a lot more time."
Hudl helped with more than just turnovers. Hendrickson examined Shiocton's shot charts and discovered one of his outside shooters was a markswoman from the right wing but dismal from the left. Another player owned the left corner but struggled in other locations. Hendrickson started tailoring his shooting drills to help each shooter with her weak spots on the floor.
"Because you're naturally better at that one spot, maybe we need to invest more shots in those other locations to become more well-rounded," he said. "I do find myself using it to structure my shooting drills better. You've got to become a balanced team and be able to hit shots from everywhere."
Through watching video, Hendrickson develops his "Winner's List," a series of objectives that usually leads to victories if Shiocton accomplishes them. For example, the Chiefs aim to make more free throws than their opponent attempts and have fewer than 15 turnovers in a game.
"I don't focus on the win," Hendrickson said. "I focus on the things that make you win, like shooting over a certain percentage or holding the other team under a certain percentage.
"Once I get the data back from Hudl, I enter that into our categories, and at our next meeting we look at how many of those goals we actually accomplished. Usually if we get to five or six of the 13 of them, we usually end up with the win."

Moms Bang Teens - Kate England and India Summer
With the weekend coming up, usually it's a time to relax and put your feet up, maybe watch some football. But with the autumn clean up, and the holidays coming up, it's starting to feel like I have more work to do on the weekends than during the week. I feel like I can squeeze in one more weekend where I do absolutely fucking nothing, but not much more of that. I'm definitely not doing anything Sunday, so I can cheer on America's most hated team. After so many years of wondering, is this how a Yankee fan feels?
At the beginning of the week, we were talking a lot about the new pussy that was coming into the porn industry. And yesterday I wanted to switch it up and go with an old favorite. But today I wanted to combine the two ideas and go for something that both sides of the camp can agree on..

Twice in two years, the Corona del Mar High girls' water polo team played again, less than a week after losing the big game.
A reporter in February asked Coach Aaron Chaney for his thoughts on the next event. Chaney stayed in the moment, his Sea Kings having just finished runner-up in the CIF Southern Section Division I championship.
The upcoming event, the Masters tournament, didn't really matter to him.
Chaney won't have to deal with such a silly question any time soon.
The CIF Southern Section council unanimously voted Tuesday to eliminate the Masters boys' and girls' water polo tournaments.
The event, in its third year, ended with the Sea Kings claiming the girls' title in March, sort of making up for the 3-2 heartbreaking loss to Dos Pueblos of Goleta in the section final.

|Innate immune receptor which acts as a cytoplasmic sensor of viral nucleic acids and plays a major role in sensing viral infection and in the activation of a cascade of antiviral responses including the induction of type I interferons and proinflammatory cytokines. Its ligands include mRNA lacking 2'-O- methylation at their 5' cap and long-dsRNA (>1 kb in length). Upon ligand binding it associates with mitochondria antiviral signaling protein (MAVS/IPS1) which activates the IKK-related kinases: TBK1 and IKBKE which phosphorylate interferon regulatory factors: IRF3 and IRF7 which in turn activate transcription of antiviral immunological genes, including interferons (IFNs); IFN-alpha and IFN-beta. Responsible for detecting the Picornaviridae family members such as encephalomyocarditis virus (EMCV) and mengo encephalomyocarditis virus (ENMG). Can also detect other viruses such as dengue virus (DENV), west Nile virus (WNV), and reovirus. Also involved in antiviral signaling in response to viruses containing a dsDNA genome, such as vaccinia virus. Plays an important role in amplifying innate immune signaling through recognition of RNA metabolites that are produced during virus infection by ribonuclease L (RNase L). May play an important role in enhancing natural killer cell function and may be involved in growth inhibition and apoptosis in several tumor cell lines.
|Cellular Location
|Cytoplasm. Nucleus. Note=May be found in the nucleus, during apoptosis
|Tissue Location
|Widely expressed, at a low level. Expression is detected at slightly highest levels in placenta, pancreas and spleen and at barely levels in detectable brain, testis and lung

MDA5 Antibody: The innate immune system detects viral infection by recognizing various viral components and triggers antiviral responses. Like the toll-like receptor 3 (TLR3), the melanoma differentiation-associated protein 5 (MDA5) recognizes double-stranded (ds) RNA, a molecular pattern associated with viral infection. MDA5, a member of the DEAD/DEAH-box RNA helicase family, consists of an amino-terminal caspase recruitment domain (CARD) and a carboxyl-terminal RNA helicase domain similar to that of the related protein RIG-1. When stimulated by dsRNA, MDA5 recruits the adaptor protein VISA and ultimately causes the activation of IRF-3 and NF-κB. MDA5 and RIG-1 recognize different types of dsRNA, with MDA5 recognizing poly (I:C). MDA5-null mice were highly susceptible to infection with picornaviruses, which possess such sequences, demonstrating the importance of MDA5 in innate immunity.

Diagnostics & Treatment Methods
Wellmax Sleep Center
Diagnostic & Treatment Methods
The Wellmax Sleep Center offers a unique portfolio of services to diagnose and treat patients with sleep disorders. We use a multidisciplinary approach that brings together several diagnostic and therapeutic modalities. This platform provides the most comprehensive and cost effective means of meeting patients' needs.
Consultation or Direct Referral Primary
Care physicians and specialists can request a sleep consultation or may make a direct referral for a specific test. Our sleep center staff is available for brief telephone consultation to discuss specific patients to help guide the referral into a best test direct referral and to explain our unique diagnostic options.
Polysomnography (Overnight sleep study)
Polysomnography, the simultaneous recording of neurologic and physiologic parameters is an overnight test performed on sleeping patients. Polysomnography generally includes monitoring of the patient's airflow through the nose and mouth, electrocardiographic activity (ECG), blood oxygen level (SpO2), brain wave pattern (EEG), eye movement (EOG), and the movement of respiratory muscles and limbs (EMG). Polysomnography is used to help diagnose and evaluate a number of sleep disorders such as sleep apnea, narcolepsy, parasomnias and to detect and evaluate seizures that occur during the night. All waveforms are recorded and the patient is monitored by the sleep technician via computer; the resultant study is then scored by a technician for physician review and interpretation.
Ambulatory Portable Monitoring
Portable monitoring, which has been available for 10 years, is the simultaneous recording of physiologic parameters in an overnight test to evaluate sleep disordered breathing. Sleep disordered breathing by the American Academy of Sleep Medicine (formerly the American Sleep Disorders Association), includes central, mixed, and obstructive apnea and hypopnea syndrome. Physiologic parameters include the ECG, respiratory effort, airflow, saturation, pulse waveform and body position. These unattended studies are done at home and may be performed in any setting; i.e., a nursing home or assisted living facility. They are especially useful for patients who may be physically unable to come to the lab or if the lab is booked and you are strongly suspecting OSAHS as the problem. Ambulatory portable monitoring studies are diagnostic screening studies and if they are abnormal they are followed up with an in lab CPAP or BiPAP titration study. This process ensures that the home unit will meet insurance requirements for payment.
Auto-Titrating (C-PAP) Continuous Positive Airway Pressure Devices
Continuous positive airway pressure (CPAP) has been used to treat patients with obstructive sleep apnea syndrome (OSAHS) utilizing a fixed single pressure. Auto-titrating CPAP has been available since 2000, and these units automatically titrate positive airway pressure (APAP) to maintain airway patency. These devices are used for titration (APAP titration) and treatment (APAP treatment). These are self-adjusting, record pressure data and compliance (smart technology) and the data is downloadable for interpretation and reporting.
BiPAP Continuous Positive Airway Devices
BiPAP stands for bi-level positive airway pressure. It is a CPAP unit but differs to the extent that the proximal airway pressure is reduced during the exhalation phase of breathing. The unit senses the slight increase in back pressure during exhalation and the pressure reduces to facilitate exhalation. Typically, BiPAP is used for patients who cannot tolerate conventional CPAP and for those on higher CPAP pressures. BiPAP is also used for patients with CHF (congestive heart failure) and those with chronic lung disease, i.e. asthma, emphysema and COPD.
VPAP Adapt SV VPAP
Adapt SV is an adaptive-servo ventilator designed specifically to treat central sleep apnea (CSA) in all its forms; including complex and mixed sleep apnea. Adapt SV normalizes breathing, completely suppressing CSA and/or Cheyne-Stokes respiration (CSR)

So Petco wants to open a store in the Richmond. I am a locksmith who, though not pro-Petco, is pro-commerce in the neighborhood. Empty storefronts along the Geary Boulevard corridor are bad for business.
Petco might theoretically affect a small pet business six blocks away from the proposed location. But most people buy their pet food at supermarkets or discount outlets. The argument that people will buy their pet food from the small pet stores if Petco doesn't move in is spurious. What isn't theoretical is that the doughnut shop next to the old Walgreens lost 30 percent of its business when Walgreen's relocated.
Other small businesses in the neighborhood can't survive if the area keeps declining. I spoke with Supervisor Eric Mar and asked him what he would propose for the location if Petco doesn't move in. I'm still waiting for an answer.

Muni operators must abide by basic, common-sense work rules. Muni managers must have the ability to penalize employees who break the rules. Muni operators should not be eligible for overtime pay unless they have actually worked a full 40 hours in a calendar week. Proposition G was overwhelmingly passed by voters to ensure these very rules.
If the cost to validate Prop. G is the loss of federal dollars and the loss of the Central Subway and other projects, so be it.
Tom Hubbard, San Francisco
Saved from subway scam
More power to the Transport Workers Union Local 250-A to get federal funds withheld from the Central Subway billion-dollar boondoggle to nowhere. The Central Subway is an ill-conceived project that will serve no one except Chinatown property owners along the proposed route. It is nothing but political payback.

Keep friends close
There is only one democracy in the Middle East and that country is Israel. It is the only true ally in the area. Why is our president attacking it? The logic of this administration is becoming more confusing by the day. What is our foreign policy? Do we have one?
We seem to be catering to dictators and despots throughout the world. Does anyone think this will make this country respected throughout the world? With all of the problems facing this nation, why are we throwing our friends under the bus?

|Jun Ware Bottle, Song Dynasty, 12th C.
The Victoria & Albert Museum
This celestite blue bottle is representative of a type of Chinese ceramics known as Jun ware. Overall, Chinese ceramics are typically categorized by the geographical area in which they were made since the kilns of a particular region usually only produced one or two types of ceramics at any given time in history.
Jun ware was a product of the kilns of the Henan province, reaching its apex during the Song dynasty (960-1279). This pottery is identified visually by its coarse stoneware body and its shiny blue glaze. Another identifying characteristic is the presence of a red spot or spots on the vessels, a visual cue evident in this example. This is due to the copper-rich pigment on the ceramic body beneath the glaze.
While some types of Chinese ceramics were made exclusively for the imperial household, Jun ware, conversely, was produced for popular. By the Qing dynasty the status of these ceramics had elevated since the Qianlong emperor (reigned 1736-95) was an admirer of them and used them for decorating his home.

Miradas: ancient roots in modern and contemporary mexican art, works from the Bank of America Collection
This unique survey of over 100 works takes a close look at paintings, prints and photographs created over the past eighty years. The exhibition examines and celebrates work by artists on both sides of the border—American and Mexican-American—to reveal a variety of cultural aspects as they emerged in the years after the Mexican Revolution (1910–1920) to the present day. The works included are by some of the best-known Mexican artists—Diego Rivera, Rufino Tamayo, Gabriel Orozco, Manuel Alvarez Bravo, David Alfaro Siqueiros and Gunther Gerzso—as well as Mexican-American artists such as Judithe Hernández, Roberto Juarez and Robert Graham. Visitors to the Miradas exhibition will have the opportunity to observe the works of a number of artists who have been attracted to and inspired by Mexico's ancient civilizations and modern artistic theories alike.
Many artists of Mexican descent working in the United States continue to implement social ideas and educational theories first taken up by modern Mexican artists at the end of the Mexican Revolution. They also understand and react to the sociopolitical climate in the United States and the global art and theories of the second half of the twentieth century, incorporating contemporary regional politics along with their broad understanding of their diverse heritages. The Miradas exhibition allows visitors to survey this rich trajectory.
This exhibition was originally curated by Cesáreo Moreno of the National Museum of Mexican Art in collaboration with Bank of America's corporate art program staff.

Crutchfield Customer Review (What's this?)
The subs works as good as it looks. I mainly bought it because I wanted an infinity sub for the rest of my system, the price was to good to pass up, and it had a much higher sensitivity than the other subs infinity or JBL sold meaning it uses power more efficiently. This one sub is doing everything I could have asked for and I have no complaints with it whatsoever. This sub was certainly the right choice for me.
Pros: It's pretty High sensitivity Price DVC 2 ohm impedance Only needs 300 watts of power Range goes down to 23Hz
Cons: Doesn't have switchable impedance (2 or 4 ohms) like some of the newer infinity subs have but when buying one of those, they take away many of the great pros about this sub making it not worth it to me.

Now that the school holidays are coming to an end it's a great time to take a break. Most of the country seems to have experienced poor weather during August, so we're hoping that maybe the Autumn months of September and October will be a little kinder. Perhaps if we're lucky we might even get an Indian Summer, you never know!
Our bed and breakfast 'The Malthouse' is a perfect place to stay if you're looking to take a short break in North Staffordshire. We're located in the picturesque village of Alton in the Staffordshire Moorlands. Whatever the weather Autumn here is beautiful, there are such lovely colours to enjoy.
If your looking for a quiet time away with fine countryside there is no better place than the Staffordshire Moorlands. There are lots of wonderful strolls or long walks right on our doorstep.
Or if you're in the mood for some fun Alton Towers Theme Park the biggest and best in the country in our opinion (not that we're biased!)
