Well, last night my friend Judy said I had not posted her card to Frank and me on my blog and I insisted I had done so. But I came home and looked and remembered that I had taken this picture of it and didn't like the sun shining on the table and had intended to take another shot and then share the card. Well, the brain went and I forgot to take that picture and add it to my blog!! So sorry, Judy, because yours was the first handmade card we got and we loved it!!

Former Wallabies captain Sir Nicholas Shehadie has died aged 92 on Sunday night.
A much-respected Wallaby, playing 30 Tests and over 100 games for the Wallabies between 1946-58, Shehadie later went on to serve as president of the Australian Rugby Union; a role that saw him play an integral role in the creation of the Rugby World Cup in 1987.
Shehadie also had a distinguished public life.
The husband of former NSW Governor General Dam Marie Bashir, Shehadie also served as Sydney's Lord Mayor between 1973 and 1975, and was the chairman of SBS for two decades, between 1981 and 1999.
A distinguished figure, politicians and business figures paid tribute.
Former Prime Minister Toby Abbott tweeted "Sir Nicholas Shehadie improved everything he was involved with."
He will be much missed by the Sunday morning walkers at Balmoral where he was a fixture until quite recently. My deepest condolences to Dame Marie who has lost a wonderful partner. 2/2— Tony Abbott (@TonyAbbottMHR) February 11, 2018
Sir Nicholas Shehadie improved everything he was involved with. He improved rugby as Wallaby captain, improved our city as Lord Mayor and even managed to improve SBS as its chairman. He radiated warmth and was perfectly at home in a boardroom or a bar. 1/2— Tony Abbott (@TonyAbbottMHR) February 11, 2018
While Alan Jones, who was Wallabies coach under Shehadie's administration said on radio: "[He was] a wonderful, wonderful Australian... a beautiful man. Our thoughts are very much with Marie and the family, lovely people."
Australian rugby captain...Sydney Lord Mayor...SBS chairman...husband to the Governor of NSW Dame Marie Bashir— Luke Foley (@Luke_FoleyNSW) February 11, 2018
Sir Nicholas Shehadie was a truly great Australian.
May he rest in peace

Waiting is not easy. There are days when Jim and I just want to skip ahead to the next chapter of life when our baby is already born and safe in our arms. Unfortunately, that is not the way life works. For whatever reason, our adoption journey has taken longer than we expected. We are learning the lesson of finding balance in our lives and actively living while we wait.
This spring we started talking about how we both felt that in some ways we had been putting life "on hold" while we waited to adopt. We both were feeling weary from the wait, but didn't know how to break out of our rut. Then we read a statement by Les and Leslie Parrot that really got our attention. They talked about the trap of "indefinitely preparing to live." We looked at each other and it clicked. That's exactly what we had been doing. Most of our conversations, much of our time and energy was all focused on the future. We were trying to live in the there and then instead of the here and now. As much as we want to speed up time, it's out of our control. If we constantly grasp at the future, we will miss out on the present.
So we decided to make some changes. I am writing again- not just adoption related topics, but for fun! I've even set a personal goal to submit one of my stories to a children's magazine by fall. We are taking two great vacations this summer. First, in June, we are traveling to Arizona to visit my parents and pick up our niece and nephew for two weeks. In July, we are flying to Michigan to visit family and then on to Florida for a convention with our church and Disney World. We are working on personal goals such as getting in better shape and learning Spanish. We are enjoying what is happening in our lives right now!
That doesn't mean that there isn't any preparing and dreaming going on! We still talk about "When our baby arrives..." We still pray every day that our baby will be with us soon. We pray for the birthmother that we will one day have a realtionship with, that God would give her peace and courage and strength. We still set aside time to for adoption related activities. But we are also taking time to live in the now!
We have a good and full life. We have a great relationship with each other. We have wonderful friends and family. We have much to enjoy in the here and now while we are waiting!

This Spring semester at Mendocino College, I have been taking the weaving class. It has been a very fun experience so far and I'm pretty excited to finish my first weaving project. I just got a package in the mail for the jaggerspun merino wool/silk blend yarn I picked out. I got 3 shades of purple and 1 shade of peach. I'm planning to reproduce a beautiful peruvian skirt I found at vintage store in Arcata. It took me over a month to get my warp set up and put it all onto the loom. WOW what a project. I am learning more and more, how much appreciation we should have when it comes to the fibers of our clothing. The process behind it all is super fascinating to me. And to think we can pick up a shirt or a dress for under $20 sometimes is crazy to me. I already have estimated that if I were to sell this skirt I'm about to make, in order to make it worth my time and repay the supplies needed, it would have to cost well over $300. Dang!! Hope you enjoy the pics of my sewing/weaving classroom and here's a sneak peak at my warp on my loom... more pics to come.
This is one of the best community colleges I've been to! The first reason, being that the school is getting it's power from Solar Panels. There are probably over 100 panels. It always makes me feel so good coming on to campus, knowing that my sewing machine is being powered by the sun. The second reason is because of the FREE parking. I always find a great spot to park too.
Here is an up close of all my 664 threads!! This took several classes to finish. WOW!
Here is what it looks like from the back. We realized after I put my warp on, that I accidentally over counted and ended up doubling my warp. Oh geez... luckily all was not lost and now I have a 2nd warp ready to go for the next skirt. With the help of some fellow weavers, we managed to take off the 2nd warp but it sure slowed up the process.. but that's how we learn.
She's almost ready to go!
This is my 3rd favorite thing about my college. Every time I walk down the hallway to my classroom, here is this beautiful dancer who greets me every morning. She reminds me to enjoy life and dance with all of life's challenges. I love the weaving program and I hope we can keep it alive amidst the avid cuts of many art classes.

GQ's Ireland (1962)
GQ Magazine, April 1962
While GQ seemed to be the smaller and more intellectually challenged little brother of Esquire, and I've waded thru years and years of both….GQ, for a time, stood on firm turf in the early to mid '60s... both visually and in the writing. This April issue celebrated Ireland and it has a moody and dark attitude. I love it.
An GQ is not easy to find and this came from a bound volume so scanning was a challenge. However, inspirational ideas, fashion jargon for 'stealing,' are everywhere despite the binding. Not only in unique layout, photography and stories but in the apparel itself. The nubby stripe shirt reminds me of nubby silk Rooster tie stripes -- A mitre madras shirt reminds me of…nothing. It's unlike anything I've ever seen and I'd kill to have one today. A rain coat with hacking pockets and sleeve turn ups? I'd buy that. I'm even saving up for a Jill Gill - - the NYC artist of all those beautiful whiskeys.
I know fashion designers dig thru these old mags but do fashion editors? I'm guessing most do not. And for the very first time, during NY Fashion Week, my hunch was confirmed from widely divergent sources regarding what we'll call, "Fashion editor illiteracy." "He didn't know shawl from peak." "Zip knowledge of apparel history." "I had to explain canvas construction." "All he liked was black." You get the idea.
I sat in front of Nick Sullivan at Esquire and in a couple minutes he showed me a 1950's Mac hanging on the back of his office door and pointed out the construction suggesting it might even be my size. We discussed the military influence of clothing and why stealing unit insignia was not only vulgar but unnecessary. And sure, there was the 24 hour "shoe-cam" which was monitoring what he wore on his feet everyday…but the man was fashion literate. That much you could not argue.
G. Bruce Boyer bemoaned the GQ of today doing a 20 page spread on jeans and t-shirts. It's what they know, Bruce. But I'm guessing there's an archive somewhere in that GQ office and I'd like to suggest it would be a lot more fun to go thru than the PR pitches.

Really nice photography. That shooter was on his knees the whole time pushing the compositional boundaries all the while. "Find me a Gregory Peck-type, now!"
Layout design took a chance on the cover shot with all that blur up front and no type to hide it.

Smart people with taste, historical knowledge and capital can build a better widget but how do you get not so smart people, dripping with ego, ignorance and narcissism but with capital, to buy it?
There has to be some Italian, 500 or 600 years ago, with answers.

"Ireland...has a moody and dark attitude"
I once spent a week on an island on a loch near Lisdoonvarna. Ate trout straight out of the peaty water via a pan of almonds and butter, and topped up my whisky over the side of the boat. Had to row to the pub and some joker nicked my wellies. Incomplete mouldy pack of playing cards and psychological warfare were my entertainment. Felt like a month. Brutal country.

87th Bon Odori in Seattle
Food, cultural displays, dancing, beer garden, live music.
Seafair sanctioned community event.
Seattle Betsuin Buddhist Temple
1427 S. Main, Seattle (map)
Bon Odori is a traditional summer festival in which we honor our ancestors who have passed on, remember and appreciate all they have done for us, and celebrate their ongoing presence in the lives we enjoy today.
Also known as Obon, the festival is an official Seafair event held at the Seattle Betsuin Buddhist Temple. The main event is traditional music and dancing in the street in a giant oval. Many festival goers dress in Japanese kimono, yukata or happi coats. The event also features Japanese food booths and refreshment, taiko and martial arts performances, and craft exhibits and demonstrations.
NOTE: For those who like to come early to save a spot on the grassy area next to the street, please wait until Friday midnight to do this for the safety of the volunteers who are working in that area late that night. If you come earlier, whatever you are using to mark your spot will be removed.

TALLAHASSEE, Fla. – The 20th-ranked Florida State indoor volleyball team has an important home stretch this weekend as it welcomes 12th-ranked and ACC leader, North Carolina on Friday before taking on NC State on Sunday at Tully Gym.
The Seminoles (15-6, 8-2) will battle the ACC leading Tar Heels (20-1, 9-1) on Friday, Nov. 1, at 7 p.m. and will follow the top 25 showdown with a match against NC State on Sunday, Nov. 3 at 1 p.m. The Wolfpack (17-5, 8-2) currently share third place with the Seminoles. Both matches will be aired on ESPN3.com.
"If we want the chance to win the ACC it's going to start with these two teams this weekend," head coach Chris Poole said. "They're huge matches and they're the biggest matches we've had all year."
FSU holds a 21-match winning streak over ACC opponents while playing at Tully Gym. The last FSU loss at home was a 3-0 decision against Wake Forest on Oct. 22, 2010.
The Seminoles are seeking their fourth AVCA Top 25 win of the season against No. 12 North Carolina on Friday. The `Noles own nationally-ranked wins this season over then-No. 7 Michigan, then-No. 16 Western Kentucky and then-No. 17 Kentucky.
Senior middle blocker Ashley Neff has put up strong career numbers against North Carolina where she averages 1.85 blocks per set while swinging for 36 career kills against the Tar Heels. She leads the ACC with 1.43 blocks per set, and is trying to become the first conference player ever to lead the league in blocks per set in three straight years.
The `Noles hold an RPI of 34, while North Carolina is 20th. A sixth-straight victory over the Tar Heels could help FSU's bid for a fifth consecutive NCAA Tournament appearance. The feat would mark a program record for consecutive postseason appearances, which is currently at four from 1987-90 and 2009-12.
Tied with No.18 Duke for the ACC lead, The Tar Heels started the season on a 15-match winning streak before falling to the Blue Devils in their only loss of the season.
Heading into this weekend, NC State boasts a three-matching winning streak after defeating Virginia, Pittsburgh and Maryland. Before their loss at Virginia Tech, the Wolfpack defeated Duke 3-1 in Raleigh.
Following the short home stand, FSU goes back on the road for matches against Virginia on Nov. 8 at 7 p.m. and Virginia Tech on Nov. 9 at 6 7 p.m.
Follow Florida State indoor volleyball on Seminoles.com as well as on the team's official Twitter (@FSU_Volleyball) and Facebook pages (Facebook.com/FSUVolleyball).

Shun AuroraGovernment Investigative Office of Department of Security, Central Headquarters General Manager, age 27
Daisuke's older brother and the General Manager of Special Services, Shun prides himself on his rational and logical thinking. Shun's logical nature is usually in conflict with Daisuke's more impulsive personality. This causes a gap between the two brothers, despite the fact that Shun raised Daisuke after their father's death at the hand of an android. Another point of contention between them is Shun's inability to forgive his mother for leaving their family when Shun was 9 and Daisuke 3. Shun is responsible for the partnership of his brother with J.

If I were Joe Torre for a day...the very first thing I would do is to resign as Yankees manager and tell George Steinbrenner to kiss my hairy ass. Does this jackass truly think I would not have at least five offers to manage other teams next year??? Does he think he can find a better manager??? I only led this team to a 97-65 record and a playoff birth even though two of my stars were hurt for a good part of the season. A copy of my letter of resignation:
Dear Mr. Bossman,
You are an idiot. You spent tons and tons of money on an amazing roster and still cannot make your way to a World Series title. Take a look at the Tigers roster...not even close to ours in dollars, yet they are going to the World Series while we will be sitting at home polishing the trophies from years gone by. Get a clue, would you????????? Baseball is a game of passion, not possessions. Quit buying players like you would buy up property...sometimes it just doesn't work out the way you would like it to.
I am going to move on to bigger and better things. Good luck trying to find another manager to put up with your crap. Don't call me next year when you are 40-122.
Joe Torre
p.s. A-rod needs to be traded.

UK inflation hit its highest rate in over a year during June following a rise in fuel and clothing prices.
The Office for National Statistics (ONS) said CPI inflation hit 2.9% in June, up from 2.7% the month before. This is the highest rate since April 2012's reading of 3%.
"The inflation rate is slightly above the figures seen over the previous 12 months but below the levels reached between the start of 2010 and spring 2012," said the ONS.
Falls in the cost of air travel was the biggest drag on inflation in June.
CPIH, a new measure of consumer price inflation that includes owner occupiers' housing costs, hit 2.7% in June, up from 2.5% in May.
"The slower growth in CPIH than CPI is due principally to owner occupiers' housing costs increasing more slowly than overall inflation for other consumer goods and services in the year to June," said the ONS.
Bank of England to Step In?
Bank of England (BoE) Governor Mark Carney has signalled that UK monetary policy will remain loose for the time being. He told markets not to expect a hike in the base rate, which is at its record low of 0.5%, any time in the near future.
The central bank's quantitative easing (QE) programme, called the Asset Purchase Facility, stands at a value of £375bn (€432bn, $564bn). Many economists had anticipated a further £50bn of gilt purchases through the programme, but a recent uptick in economic data has diminished the likelihood of more stimulus.
However it is unlikely Carney will seek to unwind the vast QE programme, which has been in action since January 2009, for some years as the economy takes its first tentative steps towards a recovery.
Concerns over sticky inflation, which has been above the government's 2% target for almost four years, and the saturation of QE's impact on the markets meant policymakers held off of further stimulus despite the threat of a triple-dip recession at the beginning of 2013.
The BoE expects inflation to fall to its target in 2016, but much of what impacts the headline figure is out of its control, such as fuel prices and tuition fees, which have both caused a spike in recent months.
There are signals that the British economy is beginning on its long road to recovery. The International Monetary Fund (IMF) lifted its UK growth forecast for the first time in more than a year, predicting 0.9% expansion in 2013 against a previous estimate of 0.6%.
Economists at the National Institute for Economic and Social Research (NIESR) predict the growth accelerated in the second quarter, to 0.6% from 0.3% in the opening three months of the year.
Rising output has been put down to the country's private service sector which has beat expectations in recent months. It powers three quarters of UK GDP.

Nick and I have been hunting for a Danish teak credenza forever (on eBay and craigslist, and in what seems like every vintage store for miles around). But we could never find one locally with the exact look or the dimensions we were after or that wasn't way out of our budget.
I did spot some nice ones on eBay, but they always got bid up into the stratosphere -- and they all seemed to be located in Maine, Rhode Island, or some other distant province from which freighting would have cost more than the credenza itself.
Finally, though, the exact credenza we'd been dreaming about showed up on eBay, and it was local! We bid, won (it wasn't the total steal we'd been holding out for, but the price was very fair), and picked up our new credenza today.
(By the way, the seller has a great little shop called I Spy Vintage Decor & More on Market Street in San Francisco; I took a bunch of pictures of her other wares that I'll post here soon.)
I thought it might be fun to share "before" and "after" pix with you all, so here's the credenza in its new home. I think it's just right for this spot in our living room. What do you think?
(In case you're wondering what the heck else is going on with the room, the color scheme is sort of in transition. I got sick of the red and have been migrating in some lime green, but it hasn't all quite come together yet. The rather generic red-coral art is all wrong, for instance, as is the traditional red-and-camel area rug -- but I haven't yet figured out what to do instead. In fact, our entire aesthetic is sort of in transition right now, so the room probably looks a little schizophrenic. It's very much a work in progress, so if anyone out there has any suggestions, I'm all ears ... )

Twas the night before a debt free Christmas and all through the house not one credit card was used, not even for mamas pretty frilly blouse.
The stockings were hung by the chimney with care, as all of the grands knew stock options would be there.
The grandkid's were all nestled in their beds, while visions of financial freedom danced in their heads
And me in my kerchief and William in his cap, had just settle down for a long winter's nap.
When out on the roof arose such a clatter I sprang from the bed and sent William to see what was the matter.
Away to the window he flew like a flash, tore open the shutter and threw up the sash.
The moon on the breast of the new-fallen snow gave the luster of midday to objects below, when what to his wondering eye's should appear, but the three credit bureau CEO's looking with wonderment and fear.
With the CEO of each bureau questioning the Threadford's of this debt-free Christmas feat, I knew in a moment they were about to feel the heat.
More rapid than eagle's their credit card companies came and the CEO's whistled and shouted and called them by name.
"Now Visa Now Discover
Now Amex and Master Card
On Best Buy! On Capital One!
On Chase and Barclay Card!
They aren't using credit
this Christmas at all
Now cash today! Cash today!
Cash today all!
As dry leaves that before the wild hurricane fly,
when they meet with an obstacle, mount to the sky
So up to the house-top the credit card companies they flew
with a sleigh full of debt, and the CEO's too
And then in a twinkling I heard really hard
the swipping and swiping of each credit card
as William drew in his head and was turning around
down the chimney the CEO's came with a bound
They were dressed in all black from head to foot
as their clothes were all tarnished with ashes and soot
a bundle of debt they had waiting in their hands
and they looked like they had no other plans
Their eyes how they sparkled their faces all merry
as they tried to convince him of debt he should carry
their droll little mouths were drawn up in a scowl
and their shrill little voices sounded like a howl
their ink pens were held tight in their hands
as they waited to raise credit limits for the Threadford clan
Then out of the room Tracie Threadford came
with fire in her eyes and flames on her tongue
she shouted and fussed "No debt this Christmas now leave
before I cuss'!
They knew what was good for them
so they turned to leave
but not without one last trick up their sleeves
They begged and they pleaded with promises of
30-40% cash back for each purchase of love
As Tracie took a few steps their way
they knew they better not stay
she waved them out from her sight
with a "Merry Debt Free Christmas to all and to all a good night!"
May you all have a Merry Christmas and make it a debt free Christmas if you can!

Sammy Hagar's Hawaiian House Is for Sale
Sammy Hagar's ocean-side Hawaiian home is on the market.
He purchased the house after taking a vacation there following Van Halen's 1995 world tour. Hagar intended to spend just a week, but that soon turned into a month. He began looking for a residence in Hawaii not long after.
The spot he eventually settled on includes 10 acres of land, a pool, a spa, a guest house and room for a recording studio. As the Los Angeles Times notes, there was also "access to Hawaiian fruits and vegetables growing on the grounds." The 9.8-acre retreat, which includes a long driveway lined by palm trees, is now for sale with an asking price of $ 3.2 million.
The house includes three bedrooms and vaulted wood ceilings. The kitchen has been updated with new cabinets and a marble-topped island to accommodate Hagar's growing interest in cooking over the years. There's even a brick oven outside.
Key amenities include a tiki bar, a one-bedroom guesthouse, a 1,000-square-foot garage and a 1,500-square-foot pool that features an island in the middle, complete with its own palm tree. Hagar also installed a tilapia pond and a 400-foot-deep well. Plus, there are coconut, banana, papaya and lime trees all around the property. "It's like island living inside the house," Hagar told the Times. "This place is like a painting."
You can see photos from the house below.

Silver light Layouts Part
Silver light Layouts Part
Ref: http://blogs.msdn.com/charlie/archive/2009/04/19/silverlight-layouts-part-1.aspx
User Controls
Silverlight 2.0 projects typical use a combination of XAML and C# or VB code. XAML stands for Extensible Application Markup Language. It is pronounced Zamel, and it rhymes with the word camel.
When you create a new Silverlight project, the following XAML is produced:
<UserControl x:Class="SilverlightApplication3.Page" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" Width="400″ Height="300″> <Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">
Here you see two controls:
- A UserControl
- And inside it, a Grid
A UserControl is a standard Silverlight type from which developers can derive their own custom controls. You can derive any type of control you want from a UserControl. However, the UserControl shown in the code quoted above usually acts as a container for your interface. Typically, developers fill this container with a series of Buttons, Textboxes and other simple elements that define an interface of some type.
You can draw a very rough analogy between a Form in a Windows Forms application and this UserControl in a Silverlight application. Just as you use a Form to define the interface for Windows application, you use a UserControl to define the interface for your Silverlight application.
It's important to remember, however, that this control is, by default, embedded inside an ASP.NET Web Application Project. You could, therefore, also view the control as an interface element inserted into an ASP.NET web application. In our case, however, we are focusing exclusively on the Silverlight portion of the application, so the Windows Forms analogy is not too inappropriate, so long as you don't take it overly literally, and so long as you remember that UserControls can be used for entirely different purposes in other contexts. You can create any type of custom control you want from a UserControl, but in this context, the UserControl is a container for your interface.
Inside the UserControl is a Grid. If you want, you can use this grid as the host for most of the controls in your program. You could, for instance, place a button inside it:
<UserControlx:Class="SilverlightApplication11.Page" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" Width="400″Height="300″>
This XAML code produces the following output:
Figure 01: A Grid control hosting an OK button.
This seems like a good start, but if you try to add another button, you will see that things don't work out as you might have expected. Here is the code for adding a second button:
<UserControl x:Class="SilverlightApplication11.Page" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" Width="400″ Height="300″>
<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">
<Button Content="OK"/>
<Button Content="Cancel"/>
The output from this code looks like this:
Figure 02: A Grid control that hosts a Cancel button which obscures an OK button.
There is our Cancel button, as big as life. But what happened to the OK button? It appears to be obscured by the Cancel button. In other words, the Grid control is not allowing us to display two buttons at once, but instead is taking one button, and allowing it fill the entire interface. In same situations, this might be exactly what we want, but in this case it is working at cross purposes to our goal.
As you have no doubt surmised, the Grid control, as it is currently configured, will not produce the behavior we want. There are, in fact many ways to get the grid control to display multiple buttons. Here is one way:
<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">
<Button Grid.Row="0″ Content="OK"/>
<Button Grid.Row="1″ Content="Cancel"/>
This code defines two rows in the grid: one fills the top half of the grid, and the second fills the bottom half. We have added code to our Button declarations asking the Ok button to be hosted in Row 0, and the Cancel button to be hosted in Row 1. Here is the result:
Figure 3: A Grid control with two rows. The first row hosts an OK button, the second a Cancel button.
If you need columns, rather than rows, then use this code:
<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">
<Button Grid.Column="0″ Content="OK"/>
<Button Grid.Column="1″ Content="Cancel"/>
Here is the result:
Figure 4: A Grid control with two columns, each of which hosts a button.
If you want both rows and columns, then write code like this:
<UserControl x:Class="SilverlightApplication11.Page" xmlns="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml/presentation" xmlns:x="http://schemas.microsoft.com/winfx/2006/xaml" Width="400″ Height="300″>
<Grid x:Name="LayoutRoot" Background="White">
<Button Grid.Column="0″ Grid.Row="0″ Content="OK"/>
<Button Grid.Column="1″ Grid.Row="0″ Content="Cancel"/>
<Image Grid.Column="0″ Grid.Row="1″ Source="Images/BlueLight.png" />
<Image Grid.Column="1″ Grid.Row="1″ Source="Images/RedLight.png" />
This interface produces four sections inside the grid. We could have left the two new spaces empty, but I thought it would be less confusing if I put something inside them. To keep the code simple, I've added two Image controls and placed two simple bitmaps in them. I then use both the Grid.Column and Grid.Row properties in the Button and Image controls to designate where I want the images and buttons to appear.
Note that I store that Images in a directory called Images. You can create project directories of this type by writing clicking on your project in the Solution Explorer, and choosing Add | New Folder. After you copy the bitmaps into the Images directory, click the Show All Files button at the top of the Solution Explorer to make the bitmaps visible. Then right click on the images and explicitly add them to your project. When you are done, your work Solution Explorer might look something like this:
Figure 5: Creating an Images directory that contains two bitmaps.
Taken together, all of the XAML code shown in the previous examples produces the following results, where the blue and orange areas are the bitmaps that I stored in the Images directory:
Figure 6: A Grid control with two rows and two columns. The control hosts two buttons and two images, one in each quadrant of the Grid.
That's probably enough for this post. There is obviously a great deal more to be said about Grid controls in particular, and Silverlight interfaces in general, but this can serve as an introduction to the topic. The next article in this series will continue in this same vein, discussing, layouts, Grid controls, and StackPanels.
Silverligtht Versions
Version 1.0
Silverlight version 1.0 – scheduled for release this summer – is very comparable to Adobe Flash . It delivers high performance multimedia and animation capabilities that can blend seamlessly with HTML. It's capable of playing a variety of audio and video file formats, such as MP3, WMA, and WMV. It handles streaming quite well, so media can start playing immediately without having to wait for the entire file to download.
Silverlight's user interface is defined with a subset of XAML – an XML format shared with Windows Presentation Foundation (WPF). This facilitates vector based animations, a claim that goes beyond Flash's current capabilities. Silverlight's compiled object model can be navigated via JavaScript for seamless interaction between embedded Silverlight components and the page that hosts them.
When users encounter a Silverlight 1.0 enhanced web page for the first time, they'll be prompted with the quick & easy installation that's only about a 1.2 megabyte download.
Version 1.1
While the multimedia and animation capabilities of Silverlight 1.0 are certainly great for graphic designers, Silverlight version 1.1 (currently in alpha) starts to provide the kind of business oriented functionality that the majority of web developers need.
A variety of useful classes are included in Silverlight 1.1 for working with cutting edge technologies like LINQ, generics, multithreading, and invocation of Windows Communication Foundation (WCF) web services. There's also support for XML manipulation, networking, I/O, collections, globalization, and JSON serialization.
ASP.NET support is also provided for things like personalization, profiles, role membership, and invocation of ASMX web services. On a related note, the next release of ASP.NET is expected to include a variety of tools for easing Silverlight development, including built-in controls that make it easy to embed Silverlight content.
Unfortunately there are currently no definite plans to include any significant number of controls in Silverlight 1.1 – not even a basic button control is currently in the mix. They do at least provide a control class that can be used to build your own controls, and alternately it's not terribly difficult to make basic controls using XAML and some custom code – but certainly we'd prefer not to have to write such basic code. Luckily there are several controls available in the separate
Since Silverlight 1.1 is still only in alpha, its uncertain exactly what other functionality may ultimately make it into the release version. The current download size for this far more functional version of Silverlight hovers at around 4MB.
Future Versions
From my conversations with Silverlight mastermind Scott Guthrie and his merry band of genius underlings, they've got a lot of mouthwatering functionality planned for upcoming versions of Silverlight. General themes include a rich set of built-in controls, data binding support, XLINQ, RSS, Xml Serialization, Opera support, and improved layout management. And that's just for starters.
In general the vision is to transform Silverlight from its current 1.0 state of multimedia powerhouse into a highly productive business tool capable of powering rich applications of virtually every kind.
Even with all this extra functionality, Silverlight's team has a long term secret goal of keeping the download size under 5MB. Shhhh! Don't tell anybody!
Development Tools
Currently the lack of polished tools for developing Silverlight applications is its biggest hindrance. The next version of Visual Studio (codenamed Orcas) is expected to ship with rich Silverlight support. However, the current beta version of Orcas clearly still needs a lot of work before achieving this goal. If you're brave enough to be tinkering with the Orcas beta then you might as well download the Silverlight Tools Alpha add-on to try out its Silverlight development capabilities.
Microsoft's new Expression suite of products is currently closer to being in a finished state. They are presently more polished and less buggy than Orcas. Specifically, Expression Blend is probably the most valuable Expression product for Silverlight development. However, be forewarned that the Expression suite is intended more for graphic designers than software developers. Therefore Visual Studio-oriented developers should expect a significant learning curve.
Silverlight is a brilliant idea that still has a ways to go before it reaches its potential. Nevertheless, it should definitely be on every web developer's radar. It's a distinct possibility that Silverlight could be the future of web development. Imagine a world where web developers no longer deal with HTML, and instead write rich, compiled .NET code that runs everywhere as ubiquitously as HTML does now. If Microsoft plays its cards right, this will happen.

Bee Thinking on Shark Tank
Bee Supplies Store - Episode 629 - 4/10/2015
|Bee Thinking "Beekeeping Supplies"
looking for a Sweet Deal on the Shark Tank
Not interested in becoming a Beekeeper, but still love what those little critters produce? The Bee Thinking website has a host of other products including Honey, Candles, Books and even a Bee Clean Soap.
The entrepreneurs behind the Bee Thinking Business and appearing on the next Shark Tank in Episode 629 is Matt and Jill Reed. The couple began "Bee Thinking" back in 2008 simply as a Beekeeping Resource for like-minded enthusiast's around the world.
At that time, Matt and Jill were also starting to make a new type of Foundation less Cedar Bee Hive made from native cedar trees from the Pacific Northwest. Starting with a single product, Bee Thinking has now grown into one of the biggest Bee Keeping Supplies Businesses on the entire Internet. What's probably just as impressive growing a worldwide business worthy of a Shark Tank appearance, is the fact the Reeds still manage 35 active hive's in their spare time.
Bee Thinking Reviews before Shark Tank UpdateThe testimonials for the Bee Thinking Beehive's boasts an incredible 5 Stars out of 5 with over 500 reviews. Anyone in any business knows it's almost impossible to please everyone all the time, and yet the Reeds have managed to do just that.
I'm not sure if I'll be ordering a Foundationless Beehive anytime in the near future, but certainly will be adding a few jars of Pollen Fortified Honey to my Shark Tank products collection, and maybe a bar of the Bee Soap. Surprisingly, the one Bee-related product I've bought the most (except for Honey, I Love Honey) is not available on the Bee Thinking website. Bees Wax is my preferred product used for waterproofing Boots when heat-drying several layers into the leather. If Bee Thinking ever starts selling a product such as this, I'll be the first in line!

This Tatung rice cooker is more useful than the Japanese rice cooker because it has inner and outer bowl, so can be used for steaming besides rice cooking.
Strange, why can't find it in Singapore ? I guess it is the 110 volt standard in Taiwan and USA. Singapore is using 220 volt.
You can buy it from Amazon.com:
11 Cup Stainless Steel Rice Cooker TAC-11KN(UL)
For 220 volt model, I found it in Australia :
This Online Store ships to Singapore / overseas with 220 V model (Note: model number ends with V2):
6-person cooker :
10-person cooker:
Note: Do not buy the models with Aluminum inner bowl, because Aluminium can be discharged into food, which explains in the last 50 years the rise of dementia patients in Asia – the "Rice Cooker" Generation.
It is better to buy the steal or ceramic models.

"The Blueprint" by Ken Blackwell
Ken Blackwell is the former Ohio Secretary of State and mayor of Cincinnati who lost the race for the Buckeye governorship in 2006. Had Ohio put Blackwell in the statehouse then it wouldn't be in such bad shape as it is today, waiting for John Kasich to arrive and begin the rescue.
Blackwell has a great new book out detailing all the wrong turns of the first year and three months of the Obama Administration The Blueprint: Obama's Plan to Subvert the Constitution and Build an Imperial Presidency
This is a great reference on all that has gone wrong since President Obama was sworn in. If you know any voters who are still on the fence –or even still believers in the Obama brand of hope and change– give them this book.


text: One of the big improvements in Jelly Bean was the ability to let your phone or tablet convert your speech to text. Phones have done that for a while now, but it generally meant sending your input over the air, doing the decoding in the cloud, and showing the result on your device. Android can now do the text generation itself — which makes it a speedier process, and possible even without an Internet connection. Head over to "Language and Input" in the Settings app, then choose "Download offline speech recognition" under the "Voice Search" heading. You'll be prompted to download a language pack for each language you want Android to recognize; once that's done you'll be able to dictate text even if Google's servers go down or you've got poor reception.

I once worked at a Toys R Us (TRU) with my best friend. The CEO of FOA Schwartz had just come to work for TRU during the Christmas season of 99'. Little did we know, this former CEO wanted TRU to have more of a "Carnival Atmosphere."
When we were interviewed, seperately mind you, they were uber-impressed that when asked why we wanted to work there, we both happened to sing them the "Proud to be a Toys R Us Kid" song-
Seriously though, why would anyone want to work at Toys R Us?
answer: "There's so many toys in Toys R Us that I can play with!"
Anyhoo- we were both hired on as "Fun Police" for the Christmas Season. As "Fun Police" we were to wear cop uniforms (and elf costumes for Christmas), go around the store, help people find things, give kids stickers, make them balloon animals, "arrest" them for not having enough fun, set up displays, and demo new toys.
Now, playing with play-doh and putting together legos for 8 50 an hour is fucking great, especially when you get to do it with your best friend, but NEVER learning how to opperate a register AND knowing that all of the cashiers and the people who had to tote someone's winey, snotty-nosed "precious little darling's" brand-new 28-piece all-inclusive Jungle-Gym to the front were getting paid less than you made it that much better.
99' was the year that the electronic dog that so many youngsters yearned to train and love was one of the top items selling that year. Another item, which you may remember was the roller-shoe skate/shoes. Yes, the shoes that you could transform into skates with a simple squeeze of a spring and impress your friends and confuse your teachers.
"Can we demo these?"
"They are hard to skate in. I used to work at a skating rink. Can I wear my quads to work instead?"
"Sure, whatever, get out of the break-room and go back to doing whatever it is you two do around here."
So, not only did I get to roam the store with no real supervisor WITH my best friend, play with toys, make kids' days via balloons and stickers, hang out in the break room for 30 minutes+ at a time, and get PAID $8.50/Hr, I also got to do it on rollerskates.
I feel I'm getting what was coming to me though.
Much to my dismay, I am learning that you can't always have a fun job. . .
Work doesn't mean whistling at kids at a skating rink, roller-skating around a Toys R Us, eating play-doh that smells good hidden in a shoe-display with your best friend, or highlighting some kid's birthday as Cinderella who wants to make necklaces with them, or taking bubble-baths in industrial sinks.
To some it means "3rd Shift at The Daily Herald," feeding machines JC Penny ads till all hours of the morning in a town you hate (Provo, UT), or telling people who were transfered to you (by the evil coorperation Cendant Properties) that they can receive special cash-back gas certificates just for trying "special travel offers" that they will never ever use (and they probably shouldn't because if class-action lawsuits ever taught you a lesson, Trilegaint Coorperation, who I work for, shouldn't be trusted. Shoppers Advantage, Travelers Advantage, Deals & Destinations, and PrivacyGuard- who Frank Abignale, a professional con-artist who had a movie make about his life called "Catch me of you Can" sits on the board of. . . )
Work fucking sucks.
If you have a fun job, LOVE your fun job.
If you're stuck in a factory, or a call center, or the like- keep looking.
If you know me, you're too fucking awesome to settle for less.
I'm too fucking awesome, so I know.

Sitting outside a certain local downtown Athens restaurant, I noticed a guy's shirt said "Camp Awesome"
Nice, I thought, until I read what was underneath-
"I had a decent time"
I love that shit.

I was looking at www.meet-an-inmate.com because my sister said it changed her life. I was excited to find that
THIS lovely young lady shares my birth date.
Don't play games with her.

This afternoon I'm sharing a wedding inspiration moodboard to match the new 'China Blue' range of wedding stationery which I showcased this morning.
I love the mix of classic blue and white willow pattern china with more rustic elements such as the sprigs of daisies and twine. Mixed with lots of crisp white it looks incredibly elegant and spring like.
And just as a reminder in case you didn't see the new range of 'China Blue' Wedding Stationery earlier here it is again ... samples can be bought direct from my website at http://www.knotsandkisses.co.uk/chinabluecollection.html

Wellness and Recovery Services at South Beach Psychiatric Center, seeks to assist consumers in acquiring the knowledge and understanding of one's disability/illness so that the individual can move from a life defined by the effects of illness to one defined by activities for rediscovering and/or creating a valued life role. Through strong emphasis on rights, recovery, and rehabilitation, consumers come to view their disabilities as manageable and able to be coped with from the earliest possible moment. Over time, consumers become rapidly attached to and productively engaged in those activities which are normative in our society, such as work. WRS focuses upon skill building, support development, cognitive assessment/remediation, and self help, as tools for increasing an individuals chances for success and satisfaction in self-determined goals.
The Consumer Network is a service run by consumers for consumers. Activities and services are based on the philosophy that self help, empowerment, and advocacy are important components of recovery. An array of services are offered at every site including mutual support, assistance with problems of daily living, self help groups, Double Trouble in Recovery Groups, and Peer Support for Employment Groups. Dialogues on a wide range of topics including Hope, Empowerment, Recovery, Respect, and Friendship are also offered.
