Sony shows off 1/2-inch thick notebook
So how do you kill an ultra-portable? Well if you are Sony you stick an Atom CPU inside it and try to charge an arm and a leg.
That seems to be what Sony has going on with the new VAIO X. The new book is an astonishing ½-inch thick and managed to make the Macbook Air look bulky but as it has a very low powered Atom under the hood it will have some performance issues that will, unfortunately, make it a bad deal.
There is simply no way that Sony can price this in line with its performance. No additional specifications have been announced at this time and of course there is no word on pricing. But no matter what the price is, it will be too much.
At this point Sony is making Apple pricing look like a deal.
Update - Nicole from Netbooknews has gone hands-on with the device and you can watch the video below.

This following update on Benghazi is just more evidence that the White House was indeed lying and trying to cover up its own cover-up.
From Fox News:
Newly released emails on the Benghazi terror attack suggest a senior White House aide played a central role in preparing former U.N. ambassador Susan Rice for her controversial Sunday show appearances -- where she wrongly blamed protests over an Internet video."Personal privacy information", heh....
More than 100 pages of documents were released to the conservative watchdog group Judicial Watch as part of a Freedom of Information Act lawsuit. Among them was a Sept. 14, 2012, email from Ben Rhodes, an assistant to the president and deputy national security adviser for strategic communications.
The Rhodes email, with the subject line: "RE: PREP Call with Susan: Saturday at 4:00 pm ET," was sent to a dozen members of the administration's inner circle, including key members of the White House communications team such as Press Secretary Jay Carney.
In the email, Rhodes specifically draws attention to the anti-Islam Internet video...
The email lists the following two goals, among others:
"To underscore that these protests are rooted in an Internet video, and not a broader failure of policy."
"To reinforce the President and Administration's strength and steadiness in dealing with difficult challenges."
The email goes on to state that the U.S. government rejected the message of the Internet video. "We find it disgusting and reprehensible. But there is absolutely no justification at all for responding to this movie with violence," the email stated.
Judicial Watch President Tom Fitton said the documents read like a PR strategy, not an effort to provide the best available intelligence to the American people.
"The goal of the White House was to do one thing primarily, which was to make the president look good. Blame it on the video and not [the] president's policies," he said.
The Rhodes email was not part of the 100 pages of emails released by the administration last May -- after Republicans refused to move forward with the confirmation of John Brennan as CIA director until the so-called "talking points" emails were made public.
The email is also significant because in congressional testimony in early April, former deputy CIA director Michael Morell told lawmakers it was Rice, in her Sunday show appearances, who linked the video to the Benghazi attack. Morell said the video was not part of the CIA analysis...
The newly released emails also show that on Sept. 27, 2012 a Fox News report -- titled "US officials knew Libya attack was terrorism within 24 hours, sources confirm" -- was circulated at the most senior levels of the administration. This included going to then-deputy national security adviser Denis McDonough; then-White House counterterrorism adviser John Brennan; Morell; and Rhodes, among others, but the comments were redacted, citing "personal privacy information."
Luckily, for the Obama administration, the White House's personal privacy is protected - which is more than I can say for everyone else's personal privacy. Heh...

Seville is the capital of Andalusia and one of Spain's top tourist destinations. Located on the River Guadalquivir, Seville has been an important centre throughout history. Its art and culture have been greatly influenced by the different civilizations that held power over the ages, from the Ancient Romans, to the Moors and then the Castilians. Each of them left important traces that can still be seen in Seville today, especially its culinary sector. Seville's cuisine has benefitted greatly from its complicated past filled with diverse foreign influences and the introduction of a variety of ingredients.
One of the best views of the city is on a boat ride along the Guadalquivir River. The Marques del Contadero pier is close to Torre del Oro, with ferries leaving around every half hour, from 11 a.m. to 11 p.m. The Torre del Oro itself is an important landmark, built in 1220 and originally covered in gold. It stands high overlooking the river and is home to the Naval Museum.
Other notable monuments include the famous Cathedral of Saint Mary of the See which is a wonderful combination of architectural styles. It is also the third largest church in the world. Nearby, at a height of 104 metres, stands the famous Giralda Tower, constructed as a minaret during the Moorish occupation and later converted into a bell tower for the adjoining cathedral. Seville prospered immensely during the early years of the Spanish Reconquista, not only economically but also gastronomically, with the introduction of new spices and produce, such as tomatoes – an essential ingredient in Gazpacho, a cold soup dish typical of the area.
A short walk from the Cathedral brings you to the large square named Plaza de España, which is an exquisite example of Moorish-Spanish architecture. It actually dates back to 1929, designed in an imaginative mixture of revivalist styles, including Art Deco and Neo-Mudéjar.
Continuing the tour through the narrow streets of the old town, in both the Triana and La Macarena neighbourhoods you will find some of the best tapas that Seville has to offer. Try the pescaito frito (fried fish) and the prized Jamón Ibérico (cured meat).
Here, you will stumble upon the majestic Real Alcázar castle, a UNESCO World Heritage site built in the 14th century. It is Europe's oldest Royal Palace still in use today. Originally a fortress, the Real Alcázar is a gem that changed dramatically over the years, especially with respect to its gardens and courtyards, where numerous concerts are held during summer. The Real Alcázar is open for visits Tues-Sat 9.30 a.m.– 7 p.m., Sun 9.30 a.m.-5 p.m. Closed on Mondays.
A great place to shop in Seville, just as in other Spanish cities, is El Corte Inglés on Plaza del Duque, a department store that carries just about everything. The two main shopping streets in the city are Sierpes and Tetuan, as well as Nervión, the location of many luxury brands and shopping mall, Nervión Plaza. The Triana area is well known for ceramics (one of Seville's craft specialities) while other shops in the area sell lace and antiques.
Spring and summer are the best time to visit Seville, because many festivities are held at this time, such as the Feria de Abril (April Fair) and Easter celebrations. In addition, you can also enjoy concerts and flamenco performances. All of these occasions offer great opportunities to enjoy Seville's cuisine. Remember to try the Pato a la Sevillana, roast duck with olives and sherry sauce. Sherry is very popular in this region. To complete your meal, order the Tocino de Cielo (a rich custard) for dessert. You could also try a locally-mixed Rebujito, a cocktail made from fino sherry, fizzy lemonade and ice. Some mixologists use fresh lemon juice. As far as cocktails go, this one is low on the alcohol and high on antioxidants in the sherry and the vitamins in the lemon and fruit (as berries may be added in some variants) This makes for a healthy drink and a refreshing way to spend a hot Andalusian afternoon.

2014 Award in Italy
Smart cities & Citizenship
To manage the present and future complexity of the urban areas, we need digital tools that allow citizens to actively exercise their citizenship through knowledge-sharing, discussions and collaborations.
In 2014, the Altran Foundation Award in Italy focused on the participation and involvement of citizens as an axe on which we have to build smart cities. The Foundation will award technology solutions that provide effective tools to manage urban issues through the involvement of citizens in many areas: mobility, access to welfare, education, culture, public spending, etc.
The 2014 Altran Foundation Award on "Smart Cities and Citizenship" aims at identifying and rewarding innovative technological projects which will help to implement:
- Systems to help citizens and decision makers to talk to each other
- Digital platforms to facilitate the participation of citizens in decision-making
- Systems to efficiently use open data
- Systems to share goods and services (e.g. carpooling, bike sharing, platforms for the exchange of goods and exchange of opinions, etc.).
- Sensors and infrastructures to map and monitor the management processes in the city.
Park Smart, by Pierluigi Buttiglieri
This project aims to optimise urban mobility helping drivers to find parking slots. It integrates software based on existing video-surveillance solutions used for territory control. Park Smart is then able to send real-time data to users, informing them about the availability of parking spaces that corresponds to their type of vehicle or needs (space reserved for disabled drivers for example). This system provides citizens with a more sustainable mobility, reducing their impact on the environment.
The prototype of Park Smart was created in October 2014 and was recently rewarded by Edison SpA as the best project in the "smart communities" category. The Altran Foundation Award allows them to benefit from a 6-month support from Altran experts.
In 2014, the members of the Jury of the Foundation Award in Italy were:
The President of the Jury: Alberto Martinelli, Professor Emeritus of Political Science and Sociology at the University of Milan
Members of the Jury:
Francis Alexandria, Architect, PhD in Regional Planning, Professor at the Mediterranean University of Reggio Calabria
Maurizio Morisio, Professor at the Polytechnic of Turin Research Group in software engineering
Carlo Maria Medaglia, Professor of Human-Computer Interaction and Usability, Systems and Technologies for Communication at the "Sapienza" University of Rome
Francesco Vatalaro, Professor of Telecommunications Engineering Faculty - University of Rome "Tor Vergata".
Key figures:
- Among European countries, Italy is among the last countries in the ranking of the percentage of waste (18%) for energy recovery.
- The production of biodiesel and bioethanol released for consumption in Italy amounted to 1,367,434 t in 2010. This activity has employed 375 people and generated a turnover of more than € 1.3 billion.

Los Alamos National Laboratory
Northern New Mexico selected for TechHire Initiative
In March 2015, President Obama launched the TechHire initiative based on the simple idea that building a pipeline of tech talent can bring new jobs to local economies, facilitate business growth, and give local residents a pathway into the middle class.
To build this pipeline, TechHire promotes programs—such as coding boot camps and online courses—to quickly train people with limited technology skills and have them ready to work technical jobs in only a matter of months.
In December, Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico—essentially communities above and along I-40 with the exception of the Albuquerque metro area—was selected to be one of 71 nationwide TechHire regions. According to a White House press release: "All TechHire communities went through an intensive and competitive application process to demonstrate their level of commitment and readiness in expanding the technology sector. This TechHire designation shows that Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico have the partners, employers, training providers, and the civil leadership support needed to implement and scale tech job opportunities for everyone."
Community Learning Network, a Santa Fe-based nonprofit dedicated to "building communities through real-life learning," submitted the original TechHire proposal and is leading the regional TechHire initiative. Community Learning Network launched the website nmtechworks.com to begin mapping, showcasing, expanding, and linking pathways to tech careers, especially for rural, Native American, and Spanish-speaking members of the community. The goal is to train more than 500 students (of all ages) by 2020 for high-demand tech jobs with regional Tech employers such as Los Alamos National Laboratory, OpenEye Scientific Software, EMR-Bear, and Descartes Labs.

In December 2016, with help from New Mexico TechWorks' growing task force of regional educators, organizations, and businesses including Los Alamos National Laboratory, more than 50 professionals from the Lab volunteered in classrooms and more than 230 schools statewide hosted "Hour of Code" events in celebration of National Computer Science Education Week.
In March, Cultivating Coders will launch the first eight-week coding boot camp in Santa Fe. Cultivating Coders is a locally based accelerated training provider that specializes in facilitating intensive Software Developer training programs for underserved communities.
"Many students and residents in our region are unaware of the wealth of tech start-ups and tech companies, both small and large, that are growing and thriving here," says Jennifer Nevarez, founder of the New Mexico TechWorks program and Director of Community Learning Network. "Creative, well-paying, and even highly flexible and innovative work opportunities come with a growing technology ecosystem. We are thrilled for Santa Fe and Northern New Mexico to be recognized by the White House and to join the national TechHire initiative, and we are excited to be working together to strengthen tech education, workforce, and business development in our region."
Students and a retired Los Alamos employee participate in an Hour of Code on December 5.

The President in Chattanooga, Tennessee today…
But so far, for most of this year, we've seen an endless parade of distractions and political posturing and phony scandals. And we keep on shifting our way — shifting our attention away from what we should be focused on, which is how do we strengthen the middle class and grow the economy for everybody. And as Washington heads towards yet another budget debate, the stakes couldn't be higher.
And that's why I'm visiting cities and towns like this -– to lay out my ideas for how we can build on the cornerstone of what it means to be middle class in America. A good job with good wages. A good education. A home to call your own. Affordable health care that's there for you when you get sick. A secure retirement even if you're not rich. More chances for folks to earn their way into the middle class as long as they're willing to work for it. And, most importantly, the chance to pass on a better future for our kids.
Full transcript follows the break.

Marks and Spencer Royal Jelly and Pure Honey Foot Balm Review
Hi Everyone,
After a long festive time things are back to normal again. I wish it would have been possible to stretch this slot a little more. I know this wish is not realistic, anyways I hope you have enjoyed and made the most of this festive break. Today, I am going to write about my experience with Marks and Spencer Royal Jelly and Pure Honey Foot Balm. If you have read my last 'First Glimpse' post then you must be aware that I have bought a couple of M&S products. I have already said that the cute packaging of M&S products enticed me to bring them home. So far I have mixed experience with the products I bought – some exceeded my expectations, some fared only well and some did not even come close to my expectations. Let us see in what category this royal jelly and pure honey foot balm falls into.
What the product says:
This intense hydrating foot balm has been specially formulated with the natural softening properties of royal jelly, lanolin and cocoa butter to leave your feet feeling freshly fragrant and beautifully smooth.
My Take on 'Marks and Spencer Royal Jelly and Pure Honey Foot Balm'
As winters arrive, most women suffer from problems of cracked heels and dead skin. Sometimes the pain of cracks gets worse and crosses the threshold of tolerance. As people often say 'prevention is better than cure' so keeping that advice in mind I have started applying foot balm regularly to keep those unwanted foot problems at bay.
Royal jelly and pure honey foot balm is housed in an easily squeezable flip open tube. The product has a semi thick consistency that along with the locked cap ensures that there is no spilling off the product while travelling. It is pearly white in color and has an herbal fragrance that seems to be a mix of honey and petroleum jelly. The texture of the product is creamy with some synthetic feel. The consistency is thicker than regular foot creams and petroleum jellies.
I apply it once a day, before going to bed. Just take some product that comes out in one squeeze, dot it on my foot and massage focusing on heels and in between toes. Due to thick consistency it does not get absorbed into the skin easily, I have to spend good 5 – 10 minutes in massage to make it disappear. The good thing is that I do not mind doing so; it is 'feet-time' for me. It does feel somewhat sticky and but that feeling suppresses after some time. It is not that it gets transferred to the sheets or clothes as by the time I wake up in morning I could still feel the creaminess on my feet.
Regarding the efficacy, I have been using this foot balm for over 4 weeks now, and I see that my heels have softened a lot. There are no cracks and hard (dead) skin anymore. Plus, even if I do not apply lotion on my feet in the morning they look moisturized all day long. I hope this can be a great reprieve from those dry patches in winter. The fragrance does not stay on for long but I do not mind that as long as it is giving good results in healing the cracks and softening my foot skin.
What I like about 'Marks and Spencer Royal Jelly and Pure Honey Foot Balm'
– Pleasant fragrance.
– After effects stays on for long.
– Makes feet soft and heals cracks.
– Travel friendly packaging.
– Little goes a long way.
– Semi-thick consistency makes it sure that no product gets wasted.
What I do not like about 'Marks and Spencer Royal Jelly and Pure Honey Foot Balm'
– It does not penetrate quickly into the skin. I need to massage for good 5-10 minutes to push it inside.
Ingredients of 'Marks and Spencer Royal Jelly and Pure Honey Foot Balm'
Price of 'Marks and Spencer Royal Jelly and Pure Honey Foot Balm': INR 399 for 100 ml
Shelf life of 'Marks and Spencer Royal Jelly and Pure Honey Foot Balm': 18 months from date of manufacturing.
BABE Rating: 4.3/5
Final Word: Overall I find Marks and Spencer Royal Jelly and Pure Honey Foot Balm a good alternative to other foot creams. It heals cracks and keeps feet moisturized for all day long. Plus, the ingredient list is quite favorable in casting long term softening effects. The quantity required for one time usage makes the tube last long, and feels relatively cheap on the pocket.

The Father says today stay active in the things that I have called you to do. There are leadings and assignments in your life that have been deposited there by My hand. Refuse to be idle. I am the God who brings you into Sabbath rest – but rest is not inactivity. In the rest of God there is a release of creative energy to fulfill and finish every project that I have commissioned you to put your hand on. You have the commission, now let there be a commitment to that very thing no matter how implausible or impossible it may seem to be. Always remember I am working with you. Always say of your soul "it is the Father that doeth the work…" You will not falter nor fail as long as you keep your hand to the plow and don't look back.
Rise up this day in the staying power of My Spirit on the inside of you. The temptation to withdraw or lapse into inactivity is not by My leading. Do not live in reaction but live in the now. Now is where miracle working power is made manifest. Step into your now and you will find that I am there waiting on you. Now is the place where time yields to eternity and your extremity is swallowed up by My provisioning hand causing you to accomplish what needs to be accomplished and to fulfill all that I have called you to do. Discover in yourself that untapped well – that spring of life giving water, even the wells of salvation that cannot be stopped or stymied in anyway. Drink deeply of that refreshing, square your shoulders and step out as an entitled one in My kingdom. You will not be disappointed.

The Informer
Posted on: 25/07/2017
Great Britain's largest electricity distributor, UK Power Networks, has launched a consultation on its strategy for a future electricity grid.
The company has outlined how it plans to switch from being a Distribution Network Operator (DNO) to a Distribution System Operator (DSO).
Basil Scarsella, Chief Executive at UK Power Networks, said: "We are on the verge of a change as significant for electricity as the advent of broadband was for telecommunications.
"We are working with policy makers, regulators, academia, small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs) and importantly customers to lay the foundations for an exciting future, which will place customers in control of energy usage."
Five-point plan
The five-point plan unveiled by the firm – which serves customers in London and the South-East and East of England – consists of:
- facilitating cheaper and quicker connections using proven innovation;
- using customer flexibility as an alternative to network upgrades;
- developing enhanced system operator capabilities;
- collaborating with industry to enable Great Britain-wide benefits;
- and preparing and facilitating the uptake of electric vehicles

This activity is fun for the students and easy to create for teachers, which is a win-win situation for everyone. I keep my math games in white dish tubs and place the papers, manipulatives, and directions in the tub. The students have everything they need in one place. I usually put this game at a table that accommodates 4 (for kindergarten) and 6 (for 1st grade). I put only the amount of dice needed in the tub. This helps keep them accountable for the dice. If someone doesn't put one back, then there is not enough the next time. TEACHABLE MOMENT! That's when we talk about appropriate consequences for taking care of our materials. They get very good at picking up things on the floor when they drop them as they learn that their teacher is not going to replace it. When we find things on the floor after centers, we put them into a bucket of our "missing manipulatives." I randomly pick a day when our bucket starts to get full to start adding back to our games. Works every time!

French-style gardens, with topiary:
That statue in the distance is a monument to the dramatist Jacinto Benavente, who won the Nobel prize in literature in 1922.
And here is a closer look at the topiary, which were cypress trees, I think:
There is a good-sized lake in the park, with boats, and a lot of carp swimming around. I didn't get a good photo of the big monument to Alfonso XII which dominates one side of the lake, because half of it is currently covered in scaffolding, being restored. But here is a picture I took of the lake, with boaters. In my photo, you can just see part of the monument, on the right in the trees:
Here is what it really looks like:
Alfonso XII, though he reigned quite briefly, dying at age 27 in 1885, was a very effective and much-loved monarch. As our envoi, let's listen to the ballet music from Act II of "Le Cid", the opera by Jules Massenet that was premiered in 1885:

A collection of recipes and style advice that has been tried and tested and most importantly are Yummo!
Saturday, February 18, 2012
This is a big naughty in our house. We bought a new couch (which of course I picked out and begged my husband for) and it is the ultimate, coziest, comfiest couch in the planet. Anyone that has come to our place can vouch for that. The minute you sit down you are sucked in and all of a sudden even the idea of moving around or getting motivated to do something becomes a foreign concept. This ultimate, cozy, comfy couch came at a price though and in my negotiating with my husband I promised if we got this couch, the dog, Diesel, would not be allowed on it. We have had the couch for about six months now and I held true to my promise until about a two months ago when while working from home I walked past the living room and saw Diesel for the first time on the couch sun beaming down on him. I stopped in my tracks and looked at him, he whipped up his head from his blissful sleep and looked at me back with "oh no she caught me being naughty" look that only dogs can do. Little did I know that was a turning point for the couch enforcement as I just continued to walk by like I didn't notice. And now ever since Diesel had a taste of the ultimate, cozy, comfy couch he can't stop himself from jumping up! So frequently I catch him on days like this following the sun around the couch, sleeping in the ultimate coziest comfiest bliss. We both know its wrong but I turn my head and don't peep a word to my husband. Its our dirty little secret.

Define: Sensitive
This is the beginning of a new project for Investigate. I've been wanting to build out a dictionary — a glossary of sorts for new Investigators and the generally curious.
Feel free to add to this definition in the comments — make sure I didn't miss anything to oversimplify an angle. I'll be adding this to a new section on Investigate shortly — more will follow in the days to come.
SENSITIVE: Put simply, a Sensitive is somebody who is hyper aware of the presence of XM and might find their abilities enhanced by XM in certain ways. Some sensitives react positively towards XM, experiencing optimism and enhanced creativity. Thus they tend to be labelled as 'Enlightened.' Others react negatively against XM — they experience concern, sometimes fear. These individuals tend to be known as 'Resistance.'ywq42ovzw827bc
The most prevalent theory is that presence of XM will heighten the natural abilities of people who are exposed to it. Artists may have more inspiration when influenced by XM — a mathematician may experienced heightened abilities within that field. In some circumstances it is believed that the apparent creativity could be ideas being funneled into the Sensitive's brains by the Shapers and/or the N'zeer. Enoch Dalby and Roland Jarvis are cases in point.
Some sensitives are able to channel visions of other times and or places. Felicia Hajra-Lee and Tycho are such examples. This is highly controversial, however, there is no denying both the uncanny accuracy of their works and their knowledge of things that they could not possibly have known.krn06lwakr317yi
There are many degrees of Sensitivity. All Ingress Agents are Sensitives by definition, as they are aware of and able to interface with Exotic Matter, but they may not all experience some of the abilities brought on by higher levels of Sensitivity such as those experienced by Jarvis or Felicia Hajra-Lee etc.

Ashford University Data now Available on College Choices for Adults Web Site
Data about Ashford University, a university offering graduate and undergraduate degree programs online and on campus, is now available online at www.collegechoicesforadults.org.
Transparency by Design, a consortium of accredited colleges and universities aimed at providing adult learners with better information in choosing a degree-granting, distance education, launched the new Web site in August 2009.
The Web site offers adult learners information on program-level learning outcomes, how outcomes are measured and how students performed on these measures. Adult learners also have access to student satisfaction ratings and other data on each member institution participating in the initiative.
Over the next year, the College Choices for Adults Web site is expected to grow, adding new institutions and new features to assist adult learners in making critical decisions about their higher education options.
"On behalf of our academic institutions, we are pleased to be collaborating with members of the Transparency by Design consortium. This partnership raises the bar and takes us all to new levels of accountability," Bridgepoint Education Sr. Vice President, Chief Academic Officer Dr. Jane McAuliffe, who also serves as president of Ashford University, said. "This initiative enables potential students to make more informed decisions about their educational experience."
Transparency by Design is funded by a grant from Lumina Foundation for Education and by contributions from each of the member institutions. Lumina Foundation for Education is committed to enrolling and graduating more students from college — especially low-income students, students of color, first-generation students and adult learners. The organization's goal is to increase the percentage of Americans who hold high-quality degrees and credentials to 60 percent by the year 2025.
About Ashford University

I have a few thank you's that I need to get out of the way...it's long overdue!
First, thank you to all my followers! I reached 50 followers this week, which is AMAZING! On top of that, I have crossed the 14,000 mark in views!
Second, thank you to my Professional Learning Network. I have been hearing about having a PLN for quite sometime, but wasn't really sure how to get started on it. Since I started flipping my classroom, I have now developed a PLN across several avenues: Edmodo, Twitter (@deliabush and #flipclass) and the Flipped Class Network. It's strange how I feel like I know so many people that I've never met face-to-face. They have given me support and ideas on many occasions.
I'd also like to thank my principal, Jason Snyder, for putting the idea of a flipped classroom into my head in the first place...it all started from that one little idea. My administration, as a whole, has been incredibly supportive of me starting this process, and for that I thank them.
Finally, I'd like to thank the Kenowa Hills Education Foundation. They awarded me a grant which allowed me to purchase a DVD burner/duplicator, and 3 i-pod touches. Both of which have made my flipped classroom run much more smoothly.
I can't forget about my family...I've spent a lot more time at school this year creating all my videos, and I appreciate their patience and support.
Thank you to everyone who continues to follow me on my flipped classroom journey. This whole experience has given me a renewed passion for my job (not that it was really lacking, but I find myself excited to come to work in the morning).

Today's Fabulous Friday Female is Ingrid Loyau-Kennett
Depending on where you are in the world, you may have never heard the name Ingrid Loyau-Kennett.
In fact, if you're outside of the UK you may have no idea about the incident that happened here in London this week that propelled her into the media spotlight…and inspired me to name her as this week's Fabulous Friday Female.
The events in London this week have affected many people across the UK…myself included. I have struggled to even comprehend the barbaric nature of the attack on an innocent man walking down the street, because it's motivation and nature are so far removed from the world that I live in.
I don't wish to publicise the actions of the two men involved, or the horrific events of Wednesday (there is plenty of coverage in the UK media at the moment should you wish to know the details), but the briefest description I can give to convey the reason that Ingrid should be acknowledged and honoured today is that on Wednesday afternoon on a busy street in London two men allegedly attacked a third. The reports allege that they ran down an off-duty soldier with a car and then butchered his body with a variety of weapons.
Enter Ingrid Loyau-Kennett.
She was on a passing bus that stopped when it came across the incident. Not knowing the full extent of what happened, Ingrid thought there had been a car accident and rushed to help the victim.
Ingrid soon realised that this had not been a traffic accident, but instead of protecting her own life, she engaged the attackers in conversation. Seeing that a large crowd of people were gathering she wanted to keep them focused on her and keep them talking to try to prevent further injury to anyone else.
An ex-teacher, Ingrid was aware that there was a school nearby and wanted to ensure the safety of any nearby children, so without any fear for her own safety she attempted to keep the attackers focus on her, and her alone.
In this brief interview Ingrid shares her experience of the events on Wednesday morning..
It is immediately apparent from Ingrid's words that her natural desire to nurture and protect the other people, and especially children, nearby were her motivation for getting involved.
I would like to think that in the same situation that I would have the courage and presence of mind to act as Ingrid did, my hope is that I never have the opportunity to find out.
So today I would like you to join me in honouring and acknowledging Ingrid Loyau-Kennett, for her courage, composure and selfless actions under truly horrendous circumstances, that might well have saved others around her from losing their lives…
As you know, I would love to acknowledge, honour and celebrate the women who have inspired you as well. So if there is someone that you believe should feature as a Fabulous Friday Female (or Fellow!), then send me an email (firstname.lastname@example.com) with 3 simple details:
- Who is your Fabulous Friday Female / Fellow? (Her / his name and location in the world)
- Why is she / he a Fabulous Friday Female / Fellow to YOU? (How do you know her? What does she do? In what way is she inspiring?)
- A photo or link to a picture of her / him online (if there is a reason that you would prefer not to include a photo, just let me know)
So help me to share with all of our lovely ladies the real women and men who inspire YOU. …and remember, as always, to Stay Fabulous too!

In the meantime, Boston patent attorney Peter Dichiara says he looks forward to being able to provide clients with a frank written opinion without worrying that "it will turn into a kiss of death for willfulness."
In other words, lawyers can now tell corporations that they are indeed infringing on patents without their feeling like they have have to do anything about it. Another step forward for the ownership society.

Take this one for what it's worth…which may not be much. But Bulgarian news source Blitz.bg reports that Hulk Hogan will be joining the Expendables franchise for the fourth entry. Blitz has a history of being accurate, though they don't have any sources listed to provide confirmation of the information.
Making the report a bit more suspect is the fact that The Expendables 4 has not yet been confirmed by anyone, though Stallone has said that there are plans for a fourth entry. The third entry hasn't even opened yet; it does so on August 15th. However, Stallone has reportedly been lining up names and Pierce Brosnan said last month that he was signed on for a future entry in the franchise, so it is entirely possible.
When we hear more, we'll bring it here.

A Dutch shopworker who reported a possible sighting of Madeleine McCann shortly after the child disappeared last year yesterday accused police of neglect for failing to follow up the matter.
Anna Stam told police in Amsterdam last year about an English-speaking child who came into her shop in May with two people who the child claimed had snatched her from her mother while she was on holiday.
The official statement emerged on Tuesday after Portuguese authorities made public their entire file on the case. It is not clear from the file what action, if any, was taken after Stam came forward.
Yesterday she told ITN News: "I think it's stupid, because maybe they could have done something more at that time and maybe now it's too late to find any clue. So I think it's very neglectful by the police. And maybe not even the Dutch police but more the British or Portuguese police, because at that time I remember the police told me they were suspecting the parents themselves. I thought it was crazy to think that, but that's maybe why they didn't do something with it."
Stam, 41, said she had been at her party shop in Middenweg, south-east Amsterdam, when the three- or four-year-old girl came in with a man, a woman, and two other children. She said the girl approached her and asked: "Do you know where my mummy is?" Stam replied that her mother was further back in the store, but the child said: "She is not my mummy. She is a stranger, she took me from my mummy."
Stam said when she asked the girl where she last saw her mother, she said: "They took me from my holiday." Her statement added: "I asked where that holiday was but the little girl was incapable of telling me. I thought it all a little odd and then I heard the woman call the girl. She didn't call her Maddy, but a longer name. She could have said Madeleine but I don't remember."
Yesterday Stam added: "She called herself Maddy. At first I thought it was Maggie, but she made clear it was Maddy."

There is nothing like a weekend with a warehouse full of artists to get the creative juices flowing. Rena Paris, my Wallovers' partner and I, set out for Cincinnati to display our stencil line and promote the upcoming class at Gary Lord's Prismatic Painting Studio this May 10,11.
Rena worked the stencil sales while I concentrated on presenting finishes and giving attention to
customers who wanted to know more about us. We were surrounded by artists doing the same.
From gorgeous cabinet finishes
To glass mosaic panels
We were all like kids in a candy shop around surrounded by colors and textures!
Naturally, it wouldn't be a decorative artist event without someone fun and games. Samples of newdesigns became the latest runway attraction.
I need serious time in the studio to get the creative juices flowing! In preparation for an upcoming Studio Open House in Cincinnati on March 20 I have to think new and exciting! Gary Lord's Prismatic Painting Studio brings hundreds of sophisticated wall finishers to his Open House each year. We want to WOW his students with some fabulous new ideas with color and pattern.
Soft, gorgeous and glittery
Colorful, tropical and artistic
bold and contemporary
There is no end to the possibilities with patterns, especially when I can just reach for a stencil from the Wallovers line. They are so easy, anyone can use them!!! Thanks Gary for giving me a reason to get cookin' on some new ideas! Looking forward to teaching a 2 day workshop at Gary's studio in May!

Gateway Fencing design and install custom gates and fencing solutions. They have a well-deserved reputation as one of Sydney's leading fence contractors. With a clientele right across the greater Sydney metropolitan region the company focuses on the more exclusive suburbs of Sydney's upper north shore designing both traditional and contemporary fences and gates for premium properties at the top end of the market.
Gateway Fencing's old website was very tired and outdated. Built as a flat HTML site, they were not able to add new content or update the site without hiring a web developer. Not only that but the site consisted almost entirely of images with almost no copy at all. Little wonder Google didn't know they existed and their competitors were smashing them in the search results!
In addition, all traffic to the site came via extensive and expensive pay-per-click campaigns.
Bold New Media was engaged to completely overhaul their site. A new design that better reflected their premium target market was commissioned. A full SEO audit of Gateway's competitor sites was requested with the ultimate goal being the elimination of the need for paid traffic.
Bold New Media worked intensively with Gateway to draft all new SEO friendly copy for their site. A stunning new graphical designed was developed and the entire site was installed onto an SEO friendly content management system. As part of the integrated search engine optimization process, thorough keyword research was prepared on all target categories.
Gateway Fencing now have a beautiful website that attracts customers and the search engines. The success of the project has directly lead to the commissioning of an additional website project for a related company.

When no one's around.../
I feel like I have snuck into the high school computer lab over Christmas break.
It's dark. Cold. Eerily quiet. And slightly wrong.
Wrong because it is 6:42 a.m. on a holiday weekend and I have the urge to write while my baby sleeps.
Very wrong.
So here I am. You are away on holiday I presume. The lake, the beach, the family picnic, or just blissfully sleeping in and staying around the house all day to piddle. I love piddling.
There are things I want to get off my chest:
I am strangely attracted to Benjamin Franklin (the alive version). I am pretty sure we would have been social simpaticos; soul mates; and if i was lucky... betrothed. Yep, that's right. I wish I was betrothed to Benjamin Franklin. We both like to sleep late, mingle with the masses, party hard, play hard, occasionally work hard on things that interest us, and we both love board games. OK, he really loved chess. Does that count?
I'm not saying I am as smart as Ben was. However, I am not convinced he was terribly smart either. He wasn't brilliant; he was bored. This was no Einstein. This was just a man with an abundance of creative energy and a lot of down time. If I lived when he did I would've made the first library club, public hospital, and tongue-in-cheek newspaper too. What else do you do? There are only so many times people get hit by the strange white zig-zags in the sky and kill over before some bored person decides to figure out what they are. Right?
Right. As an aside, did you know that ole Benny gave one of his many girlfriends' daughters a pet squirrel? He had his wife ship it over from America only to be eaten a year later by the family dog. When the squirrel died the little girl was beside herself and Ben held a funeral for her pet. He put it in a hat box, draped a cloth over it and proceeded to give the eulogy:
"Here skug lies snug as a bug in a rug."
(Benjamin Franklin. Walter Isaacson, p. 258)
Anyways, it's worth noting on the 4th of July that:
1.) I am particularly fond of the founding fathers and American history. This makes me a dork who has read a bunch of really long books, but I can't help it.
2.) I am pretty sure Ben and I would've totally hit it off. You only think "Bennifer" is cool now... you should see the 1776 version of us! Heck yea!
3.) Amidst all the crazies out their in the world today (need I throw in names?), thank God a bunch of men and a few of their very intelligent, supportive wives, fought and fought and fought for the idea of freedom and justice. America is not perfect... but the idea of it pretty much is. And sometimes knowing the ideal is all we need to keep moving, striving, fighting, and hoping for what could be. What should be. The Fourth of July is important.
Moving On: Weekly confessions.
I gave Annie to a bunch of strangers this week. We tried bringing her to the movies because she is usually asleep at 7:45 p.m. Not just asleep, but you know, dead to the world. And she is really quite good with loud noises, but just in case, we brought her awesome pink headphones. Anyways, we went with a group of friends to see Public Enemies, and the little thing was wide-eyed and bushy tailed. Her first movie release. So many friends. All the fun. She's just like her mom... it was too much for her, she had to be a part of the action. We made it through the previews and then when the "Please don't interrupt the movie" clip came on with the cell phone ringing and CRYING BABY, as if given a divinely inspired cue, she let out a howl.
Everyone turned to look at me. We were on the very top row. There were probably 500 people in the theatre. Without thinking I just darted out, down 30 stairs, with 1,000 eyeballs boring a hole into me saying.... You're that lady, the one they're talking about! Get out! Movie ruiner! Horrible, tacky mom!
I left my purse, the diaper bag, her car seat, and my phone. She was suddenly the inconsolable child. I needed to get a refund and get her out of there. But I couldn't just bring her back into the theatre crying, go back up 30 stairs, down 3o stairs, and have those 1,000 mean eyeballs boring into me. I needed to leave her.
You can't really just lay a baby down in the theatre lobby for a minute and leave. It's not quite the fire station, but I'm pretty sure security would confiscate her. I thought about leaving her with a uniformed worker, but these were all scary looking adolescents. I thought about borrowing someones cell so I could call Ryan and have him bring us our stuff, but I knew he wouldn't answer a strange number (The thought of text messaging never occurred to me. I know. I am so 1999). So, I did what any desperate mom would do. Scanned the room for the nicest looking couple and then said, "I know this is strange, but could you please hold my baby for like five minutes?"
It gets worse. After I retrieved her, the mall was closed, except for the restaurants having reverse happy hour. So, with stroller in hand, I parked it on a lounge chaser at the most grown-up of the happy hours I could find (it had garden seating, quiet music, and dimly lit plastic orange chandeliers), ordered a glass of wine, a bowl of bread, kicked my shoes off, gave Annie her bottle, let her fall asleep on my chest, and read the news on my I-phone until the movie let out and my husband and friends came to find me. The kid was at a rated R movie and happy hour all in one night. Heaven forgive me.
I generally hate movies. Only because there are so many other things I want to be doing that movies fall to the bottom of my priority list.
So, this was, without a doubt, one of the best nights I've had in months.
other confessions?
I forget who mentioned that I should use baking soda for blemishes... but I finally got desperate and tried it this week. When Ryan asked what the scary white stuff on my face was I told him I was desperate. To which he replied, "I thought you were desperate two months ago."
The baking soda appears to be working, so don't catch me at night times! I'm not taking any chances on missed spots. I'm basically covering the top half of my body with a box of baking soda, and starting tonight, I might rinse it off with apple cider vinegar for optimal results. Whoever suggested it... thank you! And Queen Latifah, thanks for endorsing it girl! Keepin' it real you rich, famous woman... that's what I like to see!
Closing Thoughts
Every time I read your comments I am responding to most of you in my head. HeyJade, you and I had a complete conversation the other day after you sent the blog to your mom friends. Kara, when you wrote a few weeks ago after my encounter with the mean lady, I left feeling like you had just given me a big hug. Lisa, isn't it funny that we only met once and we live cross country, but we are friends? When I read Ryan your comments, he says, "who said that?" I answer, "you know, my friend Lisa." "Lisa? I didn't know you had a friend named Lisa." And then I tell him about the concert where we talked forever.
And Rebecca... I love that you so faithfully leave comments. They make me smile. You are like a little burst of light and encouragement. When we are in Denver next, I would love to see you. And yes, Glorieta was such a throw back, we had a great time. The cabins we used to stay in (where all the poor youth groups stayed... yea... D'Ville in the house) are being demolished. The owner of the camp can't believe we stayed there. I told him people think I'm lying when I tell them Brandi and I heard a bear and basically had to sleep in each other's arms to stay warm... he said he didn't doubt that one bit. Anyways, love hearing from you and keeping up with you and your precious boys.
See, these are the things I can say when I don't think anyone is reading. If I could, I would go through each one of your comments, respond, tell you my thoughts, and ask you yours. Oh... in a perfect world where I had unlimited time and the pause button like Zack Morris had. If only I had enough time to be a part of each one of your lives, I would love it.
Anyways, it is 7:38 a.m. now. I am working out vigorously to lose these final ten baby pounds, but today is a holiday, so now I will drive to the donut store and order a dozen donut holes and some of those little sausage thingy's and I will devour them guiltlessly.
Ryan and I will lay around all day in our PJ's, watching sports center and The Cosby's, with the little squirrel between us, eat some junk food, and then head out for Annie's second night of fireworks, friends, and family.
lovin life.
Happy 4th of July,
Your friend who is sneaking back out of the dark, cold, computer lab and hopes to hear from you after the holiday!

Lovesick Woman, Dumped by Boyfriend Spends Entire Week in KFC
Going through a heartbreak is not that easy. It's like being in underwater for a long time and you need to breathe. Moving on is the hardest part after the breakup as we already build our lives with someone who we think we can't live without. We learn to trust them, we learn to care, and then, all of a sudden their gone! This could actually leave people with anger, most of the time sorrow and some serious questions left unanswered; about our future and about ourselves.
This article became a bit of a human interest story. Most people may stay at home, or go to a bar to get over a broken heart, but in the case of Tan Shen; a 26 years old young woman from China, found her comfort and solace hanging out at KFC for a couple of days and her unique broken heart story became a news item. The story goes on about how she just stopped at a KFC store as a place to get some comfort food and to have some time to think about her ex boyfriend and the breakup.
Time just slipped by, she found herself eating and thinking and realizing that she doesn't want to go home as the memories of her boyfriend were too fresh and it makes her heart ache. This KFC store is open 24 hours a day and has lots of staff changeovers and the longer Tan Shen sat the more concerned the staff became. When approached by the local media and asked if she was okay, she said she just needed a place to think.
Staying optimistic is a lot easier said than done, but always believe that time will eventually heal everything from the past. Smile as much as you can and if possible always remind yourself that you are lucky enough God saved you in a wrong person. Worry less whenever you are dumped, because sooner or later they will realize that they are picking stones instead of keeping diamonds. Starting today, learn to live, laugh and love every single day!

Glad you stopped by. Perhaps you seek care for your leadership-weary soul. Or perhaps you seek language, resources, and guidance when inviting others into the spiritual formation journey.
Either way, you're not alone and we're glad you're here. We've been there. Living and leading from a healthy soul is an ever-more important topic in daily life and in the strategic focus of ministries around the world. May you find encouragement, a sense of community, and a few practical helps here.
Soul Care is all about living from a place of overflow; learning to stop occasionally for conversation, the chance to read, to rest, to open up to God's presence, guidance, and--ultimately--love. Soul Care is all about bravely living into the destiny that God has for you. In His power, under His direction, and in His way.

------Did you know?
In 2008, Big Boi collaborated and starred in a show with the Atlanta Ballet. The show, entitled big, premiered at the Fox Theater in Atlanta April 10–13, 2008. The show was performed by Atlanta Ballet dancers, local youth and talent, choreographed by Lauri Stallings. (See below.)
Antwan André Patton, better known by his stage name Big Boi, is a A rapper, song-writer, record producer and actor, best known for being a member of American hip hop duo OutKast with André 3000.
The duo has produced six studio albums. Afterwards, Big Boi and André 3000 each announced plans to release a solo album. Big Boi's solo debut Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty was released in July 2010 to critical acclaim.
In the beginning...
Patton was born and spent the first half of his childhood in Savannah, Georgia, before moving to Atlanta with his Aunt Janice. He decided to pursue his interest in music at Tri-Cities High School, a Visual and Performing Arts Magnet School. He had a strong interest in hip-hop music, and met André "3000" Benjamin while attending Tri Cities High School in the early-1990s. The two signed with LaFace Records.
After four successful albums as a duo, the members of OutKast chose to make two solo albums, and release them as a double album under the OutKast name. Andre 3000 released The Love Below and Big Boi Speakerboxxx. The two albums were packaged together as Speakerboxxx/The Love Below in 2003.
Speakerboxxx featured a style similar to OutKast's previous efforts, while The Love Below explored more offbeat territory, with Andre 3000 mainly singing rather than his usual rapping. One song from each album was released in September 2003 as a single.
Patton's choice was the single "The Way You Move," featuring Sleepy Brown. It crossed over to pop charts and became a pop hit. The second single from Big Boi's side of the album was "Ghetto Musick," which featured both members of OutKast and a sample from Patti LaBelle's "Love, Need & Want You."
In 2007 after the sixth album under the OutKast name, Idlewild, Big Boi announced plans to release an "actual" solo album titled Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty. The album's first promotional single, "Royal Flush," was released in 2007, and featured Raekwon and Andre 3000.
Over the next few years the album saw many delays, but multiple promotional and video singles were released such as "Shine Blockas" featuring Gucci Mane, "For Yo Sorrows" featuring George Clinton and Too $hort and "General Patton" featuring Big Rube. The first official single was "Shutterbugg" featuring Cutty and the second "Follow Us" featuring Vonnegutt.
Guest artists include alternative urban songstress Janelle Monae; Big Boi's own new group Vonnegutt; plus established rappers T.I. and B.o.B. Sir Lucious Left Foot: The Son of Chico Dusty earned praise from some critics for its inventive sound, varied musical style, and Big Boi's lyricism.
In a July 2010 Big Boi said he is working on the follow-up album to Sir Lucious Left Foot, entitled Daddy Fat Sax: Soul Funk Crusader. The album's title originates from when Big Boi and Andre 3000 would visit a local White Castle in between recording/writing in their earlier years because of an employee known as Daddy Fat Sacks, would give then extra burgers because he was a fan of their music.
Upon hearing of his death after visiting the same location after completing Sir Lucious Left Foot, Big Boi decided to name his follow-up solo album after Daddy Fat Sacks, but would use "Sax" instead of "Sacks" and planned to feature sax samples on the record.
In 2006, Patton and Benjamin starred in Idlewild, a film about music during the Depression-era South. Patton also plans on a joint project with Sleepy Brown.
He released a mixtape/compilation album, Got Purp? Vol 2, in conjunction with the Purple Ribbon All-Stars in November 2005 on Purple Ribbon Records. The first single from the album was "Kryptonite," which cracked the Billboard Hot 100 and was a hit on hip-hop radio.

-----In 2006, Big Boi founded the Big Kidz Foundation a nonprofit organization to help youth in Atlanta. The Foundation's mission is to provide culturally diverse experiences in the field of humanities while helping create socially-conscious youth.

New York, NY – L. Camille Massey, J.D., has been named the Founding Executive Director of the Sorensen Center for International Peace and Justice at the City University of New York (CUNY) School of Law. She joins CUNY Law from the Council on Foreign Relations, where she was Vice President for Global Strategy and Programs.
A graduate of CUNY Law, Massey will lead CUNY's effort to establish and then direct the new center to be named after the late Theodore Sorensen, long-time close advisor and speechwriter to President John F. Kennedy, who went on to help emerging democracies embrace and carry out the principles of freedom as a partner at the New York law firm Paul, Weiss, Rifkind, Wharton & Garrison, LLP.
Opening in September 2014, the Center will carry forth Sorensen's legacy with named fellows, scholars-in residence, and conferences. It will prepare outstanding attorneys committed to practicing law in the service of global justice. The Center will engage in international advocacy, collaborating with other institutions around the world.
Michelle J. Anderson, dean at CUNY Law, said, "After an international search, we are proud that one of our own graduates is returning to CUNY in this senior-level position. Camille has distinguished herself as a brilliant advocate for peace and justice at the global level."
At the Council on Foreign Relations, Massey oversaw international initiatives, strategic partnerships, and the Corporate Program, and previously led the organization's membership and fellowship program. Prior to joining the Council, she was the founder and CEO of Cue Global, a consulting business that designed and implemented strategic policy, legal, advocacy, communications, and resource mobilization plans for global organizations. She previously served as a senior advisor at the International AIDS Vaccine Initiative, director of communications at Human Rights First, and a fellow in the Human Rights Program at the Carter Center.
Massey earned her Juris Doctor degree from CUNY School of Law, and a Bachelor of Science degree from Syracuse University. She is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, the American Bar Association, and the New York City Bar Association.

The Iraq army captured the formerly ISIS held city of Tikrit on April 1st. The mission to capture the city has been slowly unfolding for months, but on the 1st, the Iraq Army finally was able to break through ISIS defenses and recapture the city. The problem however is that currently there is no control in the city and thus an anarchy has broken out. Looting, murder, and property damage has been prevalent, and even the supposed "friendly forces" have been witnessed committing horrendous acts. The ISIS forces although currently defeated, are not far from the Iraq army. They have taken up positions outside Tikrit and are awaiting a chance to counterattack. The issue with all the chaos taking place in the city is that the Iraq forces are not in a position to adequately defend against the likely counter attack. It also is alarming that the Iraq forces are not professional in their invasion of the city and their management of their victory. It begs to question if they are really capable of future military operations, and makes one wonder if they are really any better than the force that they are fighting against. It is good to see that the Iraq army has managed a major victory against ISIS, and it is without question that the world hopes that they will continue their victories against ISIS. There still needs to be a vast improvement in their military conduct, as well as their training. If the "good guys" are creating the same problems as ISIS then there seems no point in them winning back taken cities. It is hopeful that they will step up their efforts in maintaining a professional military force so that they can continue to rid the middle east of ISIS and any other threats that are causing chaos.

In earlier days, quite a few software programs were available to evaluate hard drive utilization enabling one to delete and relocate files. However, now with the advent of cloud services where occupancy of extra space means incurring unnecessary monthly charges, using an app to clear storage space has become all the more important.
The latest application called Unclouded, being introduced today, evaluates and explores to help one free extra cloud storage space. This application is simple and assists in making one aware of the unnecessarily occupied space in great depth which was not possible earlier.
This app works offline and it's possible to scroll down to locate bigger files and folders, arrange them as per time and category, find out duplicates and much more.
The developer of this app is Christian Gollner, who is an Android developer and a computer science engineer. He has been a drop box user for a long time whose own account had become unmanageable with over 170, 000 files. He wanted software to inform him of the kind of files and folders occupying his space and when were they created or updated. He also wanted to clear duplicates, therefore he created this app.
At present, Unclouded supports Google Drive and Dropbox. It can be downloaded free from Google Play, however needs to be upgraded to premium tier, else it will work in read-only mode.
Premium users of this app can also use it to upload files, share data, relocate and rename files and create folders. This app is easy to use and allows toggling between lists and grids. One can press and hold an item to delete or relocate it. It's only available for Android phones at the moment and not for iOS.

|My favourite Coco.
I will weap (and hopefully find fabric to make another) when this top eventually dies a death...
|Another favourite, usually worn with my red skinny jeans.
The fabric for both tops came from Kitschycoo.
|Damn. That was another Kitschycoo fabric I couldn't resist in a late night fabric shopping spree (and no, this post is not sponsored!)
|Sunshine Coco - made with Roma Pont from Guthrie Ghani, and, has my all time favourite sewing thing, Jumbo Ric Rac.
When it comes to my the sewing courses I teach from my home in Bedford, I only ever choose things that I like to make myself. It won't come as a surprise, then, that when I sat down to plan out courses for the coming term, the Coco was high on my list. How could it not be? And, well... I may just need to make a new one as a sample...
There will be five places up for grabs on this course. Although the pattern is beginner friendly as a first adventure into garment making, I'd strongly recommend you have some sewing experience under your belt beforehand. This course is ideal for those who have been on my Complete Beginners' Course, and want to branch out into DIY wardrobe fun.
Alongside the Coco, I'll be bringing back the ever popular Complete Beginners' Course, and, running a second Megan dress-making course, after the success of the first one back in the spring.
Whether you're brand new to sewing, or, want to brush up and challenge yourself to start making clothing, there's hopefully something that might tempt you to join me this autumn. There'll be plenty of tea and yummy homemade cake, as usual.
Oh. And did I mention Liberty Knicker Making Workshops that will be popping up on a couple of Friday nights? How could I forget.
All the course and workshop date are here should you fancy booking yourself onto something nice to do when the nights are drawing in a bit.
Happy weekend, everyone!

I'm having an issue regarding the Pro Site payment receipt notification. As far as I know, it is only one customer. The payment receipt keeps sending duplicate notifications. Between 9:29 PM last night and 7:05 this morning, the subscriber received 11 notifications. I haven't checked if they are still going out but how can I stop them and what is causing this?
I was provided a temporary fix by tech support via chat.

How Many Calories are in 1 Cup of Soy Milk?
Whether you're vegan, lactose intolerant or just enjoy the taste of soy, your waistline will thank you for choosing soy milk over the dairy variety. Even nonfat cow's milk -- the lightest kind -- contains more calories than the average plain soy milk. Watch out for some flavored soy milks, however, because these may contain added sugars and significantly more calories than unflavored versions.
Video of the Day
Pick Your Flavor
Different brands have varying calorie counts, but the average unsweetened soy milk of any flavor has about 80 calories per cup. The average nonfat, unsweetened soy milk has just 68 calories in the same serving. Sweetened vanilla soy milk may contain 129 calories per cup, while chocolate soy milk may contain a diet-busting 153 calories per cup. If you love the added flavor, hope lies in light versions: Light vanilla has less fat and sugar and may only contain 80 calories per cup. Unless marked as light, lowfat or nonfat, soy milk typically contains about 4 grams of fat per cup.

I love a bargain find at the thrift store..... especially if I can change it up a bit to make it just how I want or need. I found 2 awesome wood racks for $3.00 and thought they would be perfect for holding my ribbon. And since I am not in a permanent spot to make myself a craft room, they sit nicely on top of a table or dresser or shelf.
This is how they looked before. Take a look at the double dowels.....they are perfect for holding the ribbon. The spools sit right on them, the ribbon does not unravel and I do not have to take all the spools off when one spool runs out. I love that. I also love how the bottom is also a shelf for buttons.
So with a little bit of spray paint....
I have a great home for all of my ribbon.

Derbyshire County Council has announced it will be upgrading the traffic lights on a busy crossroads in Glossop.
The works will commence on April 7 and will see the renewing of traffic signals and tactile paving where Victoria Street, Norfolk Street and the High Street intersect.
The money to fund the project has come from the developer as part of an agreement set out by the council prior to the commencement of the Howard Town Mill development.
Glossop county councillors Damien Greenhalgh and Ellie Wilcox have welcomed news.
Cllr Greenhalgh said: "Ellie and I have been working with officers to improve this busy junction, especially due to bottleneck that Victoria St has become since the Howard Town Mill opened."
Cllr Wilcox added: "These improvement will bring benefits not only vehicle users, but pedestrians and in particular those with visual impairments."
A spokesperson for the authority's highways department said: "We expect the disruption to be minimal, with temporary traffic signals in place for the duration of the works."
