Happy Birthday Margarita!
My friend Jennifer asked me to make a cake for her mother's 70th Birthday today! How could I refuse a chance to bake and decorate a cake, my new favorite hobby! The only requirements Jennifer gave me with this cake were that it can feed about 30 people and to make it feminine. Other than that she told me to be creative and to surprise her! My imagination started running wild, on how I could make a special cake for her mother Margarita's 70th birthday...what a special celebration. I haven't really made any celebration cakes before so my mind was running wild trying to come up with something simple, yet elegant at the same time. I started browsing some of my favorite cake and blog websites and quickly found something that caught my eye....fondant flowers!
One of my cake baking blogging friends, Evan had this great tutorial on her blog about how to make sugar flowers, check it out here. This was pretty much my third experience ever using fondant, so I was hoping to just come up with an end result that somewhat resembled Evan's beautiful pink layered flower! I got out my decorating supplies...white fondant, rolling pin, fondant rolling mat, fondant ball tool, flower-forming foam and some daisy shaped cookie cutters and had my computer set to Evan's blog page to walk me through this step by step.
First I rolled out the fondant and cut out the largest daisy shape. Then I cut it into half to create two halves of 3 petals each.
Next I cut out 2 more daisy shapes. To make the layered flower you need 3 different sizes of the same shape cookie cutter.
Next place the fondant cutout on the forming foam and using the fondant ball tool to go over the edges.
Then overlap the petal edges and stick together with a dab of water.
You will roll the edges of all three flower sizes.
To create the bottom layer of the flower, I used three 3-petal halves of the daisy shape. After you create each layer place it in the bottom of a plastic wrap lined bowl to allow to set up and dry. Place the medium size layer on top of the largest bottom layer and dab some water on the petals to hold them together. Then place the smallest flower on top following the same method.
Once you have all three layers of the flowers placed on top of each other add a round ball of fondant to create the center of the flower. Then add some flower stamens (you can get these at Michaels) around the flower center. The fondant flower is now finished!
I ended up making a total of four fondant flowers...2 larger ones and 2 slightly smaller ones. I made the flowers the night before I was going to add them to the cake so they could set up.
Now that my sugar flowers are ready it is time to decorate the cake! First of all I added a pink fondant ribbon around the edge of the cake to tie in the pink center of the flowers.
I placed the largest flower in the top left corner of the cake and on each side placed a slightly smaller flower.
I wanted to create an overlapping look with the three flowers. Now it's time to personalize this birthday girl's cake!
I was pretty nervous about writing on this cake...I mean this is the final step and the one that scares me the most b/c in an instant your cake could be ruined if you misspell a word, especially the name of the person who you are making the cake for.
I was pretty pleased with how the writing came out though. Using a pen and paper I could have never written this birthday message in cursive without starting and stopping after each letter, and even then it wouldn't have looked this flowy. There is something about writing with buttercream icing though...it is just so smooth.
Well the birthday party that this cake is at is going on right this very moment, so hopefully everyone is enjoying the time they are spending with their loved one, Margarita on her special day!
P.S. I've got some exciting news! I just went and picked up my brand new CAMERA! I ordered a new Canon Rebel T1i after saving up my money for a few months and it just came in today. The battery is charging now so I'm sure by the end of the weekend you will see some new, better quality, more professional looking cake photos on my website. Be sure to check back at the end of the weekend...there is another birthday cake coming up...and this one will be featuring a monkey!

Golf – First Round of Knockouts
The first match of this year's competition (South of the border) has taken place, with Nick Strachan going through to the next round to meet the winner of Match 10 between Anthony Sykes and Bruce Hyde. James Espey will be moving into the first round of the Plate competition, where he will meet the runner-up of match 10.
Thanks to James for the following match report:
I had a very pleasant drive to Liphook to play with Nick Strachan and was met with good weather. It is a delightful course indeed and what an amazing experience I had. I started brilliantly with a great par three on the opening hole, to set the scene for the rest of the day. Well, did I?
Nick won the next six holes comfortably. It was readily apparent he is an outstanding 24 and would be drastically cut at Royal Wimbledon! But not to detract from a great performance, he was absolutely outstanding and destroyed me in every single respect.
We staggered on around the course – me staggering and him swinging beautifully and it very much looked like it was going to be a dog-license.
I actually pulled one hole back to my surprise on the ninth, but soon was six down with seven to play and clearly on the 12th he was going to win; all he had to do was sink an 18 inch putt for a dog-licence victory. What an amazing surprise when his putt went 20ft past the pin and he missed the return. How generous, how kind, how thoughtful. Clearly he didn't want everyone barking in the golf club at my 7 and 6 defeat.
So we continued and to my surprise I only lost 5 and 4. I then had a press for the enormous sum of £1 and lost that very swiftly and on the last hole had a further press for £1 after he elected to give up the stroke that he was entitled to, so we played level and again I lost.
Shall we say I was well thrashed by a very good, but very gracious golfer.
I rushed to the ATM machine to make the necessary withdrawal to settle my debt and we had a very pleasant lunch, after which I drove home.
What a pleasure it is playing in the Distillers' golf knockout, irrespective of the result.
Nick and I did not know each other but four hours later were the best of friends and I look forward to seeing him at New Zealand in the near future. I would love to have him as my partner but after my performance he would probably not think the same.
It was all great fun and I wish him all success as he advances further forward, without any doubt, in the competition.

TNMAN's BroIII
I should have some pix up in the next few days(new Sony Handycam). I am waiting on my frt driveshaft that a local guy is making for me. I used a shaft from a full size Bro as a starting point. There are a few minor details to be worked out,but a shakedown run is coming in the next few days. I will take some close up pix of the steering and suspension mods.

When you fear that the worst will happen, your own thoughts may help to bring it about.
"Fear," a writer once said, "Is the wrong use of imagination. It is
anticipating the worst, not the best that can happen."
A salesman, driving on a lonely country road one dark and rainy night had a flat. He
opened the trunk--no lug wrench. The light from a farmhouse could be seen dimly up the
road. He set out on foot through the driving rain. Surely the farmer would have a lug
wrench he could borrow, he thought. Of course, it was late at night--the farmer would be
asleep in his warm, dry bed. Maybe he wouldn't answer the door. And even if he did, he'd
be angry at being awakened in the middle of the night. The salesman, picking his way
blindly in the dark, stumbled on. By now his shoes and clothing were soaked. Even if the
farmer did answer his knock, he would probably shout something like, "What's the big
idea waking me up at this hour!" This thought make the salesman angry. What right did
that farmer have to refuse him the loan of a lug wrench? After all, here he was stranded
in the middle of nowhere, soaked to the skin. The farmer was a selfish clod--no doubt
about that! The salesman finally reached the house, and banged loudly on the door. A light
went on inside, and a window opened above. "Who is it?" a voice called out.
"You know darn well who it is," yelled the salesman, his face white with anger.
"It's me! You can keep your blasted lug wrench. I wouldn't borrow it now if you had
the last one on earth!"

The Animal Kingdom is WFMT's Theme for February
Everybody knows the expression, sour grapes, from the Aesop classic The Fox and the Grapes. It's something to consider how well those lessons stand up today, over 2,500 years after Aesop supposedly recited them. 17th century French poet Jean de la Fontaine set 124 such fables to verse; little moral lessons often starring members of the animal kingdom. It was la Fontaine's poems that inspired Francis Poulenc to compose a ballet called Les animaux modeles, which was to be set in a barnyard.
In February WFMT celebrates music inspired by the animal kingdom. On Tuesday, February 4th during the one o'clock hour, Kerry Frumkin presents the suite from Poulenc's rare ballet.
Suite for orchestra:
- Early Morning
- The Lion in Love (see below)
- The Middle-Aged Man and Two Possible Wives
- Death and the Woodman
- The Two Cocks
- The Noon Repast
To Mademoiselle de Sévigné.
Sévigné, so blooming fair !
Whose charms the Graces might adorn,
Except that cold indifferent air
With all their wond'rous beauty born,
Deign me the favour of your ear;
Let no alarm your bosom move,
While you this harmless story hear
Of lion vanquished by love.
Love is a tyrant o'er the heart
Happy they pass their lives away,
Who only know what those impart
Who are the victims of his sway ;
To you, perhaps, no welcome lay.
Though I the fact may not unfold,
At least a Fable may be told:
This therefore I present to you,
From grateful zeal so justly due.
In days of old, when beasts could speak,
Lions with others came to seek
Society with human race,
And gain our fair to their embrace.
Why not? their race then equaled ours
In courage, strength, and reason's powers.
They had besides a flowing mane;
But let me here the tale explain.
A lion of great parents born,
Passing a certain mead one morn,
A pretty peasant maiden spied,
And asked to have her for his bride.
The sire with dread the lion saw,
And wished a milder son-in-law
He was embarrassed how to choose;
'Twas hard to grant, and dangerous to refuse;
Because one might some morning see
A marriage made clandestinely.
The maid liked men with martial air,
And doted on his shaggy hair.
The father soon did this discover,
And dared not send away her lover,
So mildly to the suitor said:
" My daughter's delicately made,
And you might hurt her with your paws;
File down your teeth, and pare your claws;
And she, it cannot be gainsaid,
Will take your kisses with less fright,
And give you hers with more delight."
The willing lion soon lay down;
They pared his claws, his teeth they filed.
So easily is love beguiled!
He looked like a dismantled town.
Dogs ware let loose on him amain,
And his resistance was in vain.
0 love! 0 love! when held by you,
To prudence we may say adieu!

This was my youngest child's first day of school meal request. Apparently, I make "the world's best meatloaf". 🙂 I made half without ketchup on top, since he's not a ketchup kid.
Herbes de Provence is my secret weapon with poultry. It is a herb blend of thyme, fennel, basil, savory and lavender. The flavor reminds me of Thanksgiving stuffing. It's also delicious sprinkled on a boneless, skinless chicken breast and baked in the oven.
Note to self: use some garnish when photographing a loaf of meat!

In an environment where U.S. consumer prices overall remain historically low, tuition is one of the fastest growing expenses. By extension, it means the $1.2 trillion collective mountain of education debt is likely to grow bigger.
Experts cite ballooning student debt as detrimental to everything from net worth to credit scores, and even the ability for students to get jobs to pay off their loans.
Annual tuition inflation has slowed since 2004, according to data from the Bureau of Labor Statistics, yet it still averaged 6 percent over the course of the decade. At that rate, six-figure loan debt is rapidly becoming the norm for many graduates, and students may find themselves swallowed up by a black hole of debt, unless they can find a way to achieve escape velocity.

Kicking Off
Earlier this week, Chad Johnson as he is once again going to be called rather than 'Ochocinco,' announced he wants to play until he is 40. Let me translate this and tell you exactly what he really means. "In order to stay even somewhat relevant in the media, I'm going to attempt to hang on no matter how pathetic I become as a football player." Questions?
Former Giants' WR Amani Toomer said this week that he believes Cowboys' quarterback Tony Romo is better than the two-time Super Bowl Winner Eli Manning of the Giants. Could someone please explain to me the fascination with Romo? The guy has won absolutely nothing. He's been injured most of his career and typically chokes with the game on the line. If he were the QB for any other team he'd be a back up.
This is what I believe in terms of 'BountyGate.' I firmly believe the Saints were doing something illegal and unethical in terms of paying guys for injury-causing hits and so on. Gregg Williams has admitted to this. My problem is once again with the NFL's, errrrr, Roger Goodell's handling of the situation. He apparently learned nothing from 'SpyGate' when he burned the tapes and presented no evidence of what the Pats' were doing. This time around he claims that he has ledgers but I've seen none have you? Worse yet are the suspension lengths and this 'double-secret probation type' of standard where apparently the Saints have been told to 'keep quiet.' The whole thing is fishy and reeks of Goodell's micromanagement.
I this section during the season, I'm going to feature some of the comments of the 'experts' that were said prior to, during or after games that maybe didn't make the most sense.
The Second Half
It was reported this week that NFL games lasted one second longer than they did the previous year. Damn! Do they not know what I could be doing with that one second? Seriously, this is a good thing. The games have gotten much longer than they need to be and we all know this is due to advertising dollars for the networks.
On a similar topic, the league announced this week that some late games will start at 4:25pm. These games are the ones that are the second in a network's double-header package. I get the move. The NFL wants to stay with games that are coming down to the wire and/or go longer so viewers can see the result live rather than a replay update from the studio. My only issue is that many of the 4pm games already stretch into the 7pm hour and now we're looking at even longer. This will affect five Steelers' games this season by the way.
The Two-Minute Drill
- I don't mean to make fun of it because divorce is a very serious issue, but I think Sean Payton's wife realized that she wouldn't know what to do having her husband home for a full season. This was probably a pre-emptive strike on her behalf.
- I'm wondering if the Lions haven't made a deal with the devil. They've gone from 0-16 to a playoff team in recent years but yet they can't stay out of trouble whether it's on the field or off.
- Nice of Colts' rookie Coby Fleener to fill in for SI.com's Peter King this week. I have one piece of advice for Fleener; get a freaking hair cut dude.
- Kudos to the Raiders who donated over $50,000 to local schools in Oakland.
- I see where Tim Tebow was ranked #2 on the Ashleymadison.com website as the most desirable man married women would have a fling with. Ummm, I'm no expert, but ladies, he's never had sex before. It might not be that good. Just a thought.
- Many of you probably don't remember the Raiders' Ben Davidson who died this week at the age of 72. Some of you will however recall these Miller Lite commercials he was famous for being in. He's the white-bearded guy in this one. (sorry for the poor quality)
- RIP to the great Andy Griffith. Great career in television.
- In fact, Jerry Seinfeld revealed this week that he made tribute to Griffith in every show by addressing entering characters as "Hey (name here)". "Hey Andy" was a staple of the 'Andy Griffith Show.'
- Many NFL people are already writing the obituary for the Steelers' playoff hopes this season. Fine with me. I like being under the radar. Just keep piling on 'experts.'
- Could it be just three weeks until training camp? Giggity!

I started painting in 1996, on a rainy day in Portland, Oregon.
Painting became a nice creative outlet for me and it made me much less uptight about my ideas getting killed or changed, as no one can make you change your artwork. I started out painting my favorite athletes, and then painted my friends' favorite athletes, and now many of my friends have many bad paintings by me that they have accepted graciously and politely and still to this day refuse to destroy.
I have now branched out into my favorite musicians and films and scenes from movies. And I recently painted an octopus, which I find very pleasant, as no one really knows if it looks like the octopus or not.
My most recent show is all acrylics on wood, where I leave the wood grain as the background. This is a technique I will now happily abandon, as it is very unforgiving and tedious.
My friends James Frey, Bill Powers and Andy Spade offered me a show at the Half Gallery, and I am very humbled and honored by this, as I do not consider myself a professional in any field.

Previous work of the group in this area has dealt with syntactic pattern recognition (mainly grammatical inference), structural pattern recognition (error-tolerant graph matching and probabilistic learning of graph models) and applications in computer vision (object recognition and face recognition). The problem of surface reconstruction from parallel cross sections, typical of 3D medical images, has also been studied, giving rise to a Ph.D. thesis dissertation on this subject. Current interests of SOCO in Pattern Recognition and Computer Vision include dynamic object recognition and tracking from image sequences and bio-inspired hierarchical neural architectures for visual processing.
The first five describe methodologies with a similar goal: the resolution of complex problems that cannot be efficiently solved by means of traditional computational methods (hard computing). Feature Selection and Extraction deals with problems of data dimensionality reduction that are present in all the previous lines. Finally, Pattern Recognition and Computer Vision copes with a huge application field where the performance of AI systems is usually worse than the human one, and where the soft computing techniques have great potential. Related to it, Data and Knowledge Visualization concerns ways in which Soft Computing complements human vision in problems of exploratory Data Mining.
Please follow the links for further description.
SOCO's current main line of research is in the areas of biomedicine and bioinformatics. Our work involves the development of robust Computational Intelligence techniques and their application to data-based medical diagnosis and prognosis, mainly in the area of neuro-oncology, and to protein sequence analysis for pharmaco-proteomics. In the former problem, SOCO collaborates with the Neural Computation Research Group [go] at Liverpool John Moores University [go] in U.K., and with the Grup d'Aplicacions Biomèdiques de la Ressonància Magnètica Nuclear (GABRMN) [go] at Universitat Autònoma de Barcelona (UAB) [go]. In the latter problem, SOCO is currently leading a MINECO R+D project (TIN2012-31377), titled "KAPPA AIM: Knowledge Acquisition in Pharmacoproteomics using Advanced Artificial Intelligence Methods", in collaboration with the Systems Pharmacology and Bioinformatics group [go] at UAB. SOCO also collaborates in the SHOCKOMICS European project [go] providing data science in a multiscale approach to the identification of molecular biomakers in acute heart failure induced by shock. We also investigate major depressive disorders. The prevalence of depression, its social and personal costs and its recurrent characteristics, put heavy constraints on the ability of public healthcare systems to provide sufficient support for patients with depression. Current research at SOCO includes the design and development of a remote intelligent monitoring and prediction system that performs an automatic assessment on the progress of the patient in a short-term basis, carrying out prediction of possible reoccurrence or relapses.
SOCO also collaborated with the Servei de Medicina Interna de l'Hospital General de la Vall d'Hebron [go] in a study of the relevance of several clinical and immunological variables for the prediction of cancer in patients with idiopathic inflammatory myopathies.
Members of SOCO investigate the occurrence of churn in telecommunications markets, with a focus on market segmentation and on the interactive visual exploration of customer churn routes. This involves the development of novel visualization methods including manifold learning and cartogram and flowmap representations.

Michael Ventre is a full-time IT infrastructure engineer living in London with a dream to swim the Atlantic, and change the lives of millions living in extreme poverty.
Michael has had this dream for nine years since August 2007, and it will finally become a reality on 2 April 2017, if he can raise enough money for his boat and crew. You can help him get there.
His intention is to be the first person to swim 3800 miles (6116kms) from New York to London for Oxfam, a charity in 96 countries with the aim to alleviate extreme poverty by 2030.
This swim is going to take Michael about six months to complete. He will face many challenges along the way, including unpredictable weather and loads of jellyfish.
Jonno, who swam from Mozambique to Madagascar, was stung over 9000 times. We hate to imagine the pain and exhaustion Michael will be going through, in aid of a wonderful cause.
Not only does Michael intend to swim 3800 miles, but he will be doing it fat-adapted while following a Banting diet, which goes against much of the school of thought for open swimming.
Most believe that you need to be fat to ward off the cold, which gives you free reign to eat copious amounts of processed carbs like ice cream, bread, and pasta. Michael followed this unhealthy eating plan until the day that he couldn't swim all the way to France because he lacked the energy and was too fat.
He decided in February 2016 that he needed to lose weight to be more of an athlete. He wants to be in the best shape he can be in for his world record swim. Being from Southern Africa he had heard of Banting and decided to give it a try, and has lost 14kgs since then. At the age of 38, he is now swimming like he did when he was 19 years old, he says. Losing weight was a fantastic side-effect, he feels amazing and healthy, with energy levels through the roof.
In the below interview with Jonno he talks about why he is doing this, his swimming route, his daily swimming and eating routine during this immense journey, the Channel Association rules he must follow, and much more.
Note: Michael Ventre (New York To London Swim) intends to be the first person to swim from New York to London and is doing it while Banting diet.

New Knotting Ideas from Hermes
4 comments:
Lots of halter tops and head scarves, let Spring roll on..... for now I am still firmly wedded to my 140 c/s as it is freezing.ReplyDelete
A few gavroche looks and a 70 with Mors? My eyes may be deceiving me.
Whilst some of the looks are probably best on the very young scarf fans, the scarf belt will transcend all ages.
Thanks for sharing.
Hi Bienchen - the Mors is used with a carre fluide and what looks like a 90cm dip dye. There is one gavroche with the scarf ring with the dangly horse and one halter top is made with 2 gavs and 2 twillys! The belt is with the leather strap thingy you can get from H. SA :-)ReplyDelete

These last few days have been some of the craziest, and best days of my life. Not because I've done anything too crazy, just because they've been days that have really given me that much needed time to chill out and relax. Let me tell you a little bit about them ~ what I did, where I went, who I was with (you get the idea.)
I'll start off with Saturday. As, well that's the day that comes first in this crazy little adventure of a weekend. On Saturday I took a trip down to Manchester with a close friend of mine. We were going to see The Vamps in concert as she'd asked me to attend with her early that week. I must admit I had never really listened to them before, I didn't know many of their songs and the only time I'd heard them is when they had been playing on the radio in work. Nevertheless I went, played a whole load of their songs in the days leading up to the concert and had an amazing time! Manchester is quite a while away from where I live, and after the concert we actually had to grab a train and a lift back home (after almost two hours of delays.)
The day afterwards I was staying in Jake's house. As I was exhausted and worn out we didn't really get up to too much, but found ourselves engrossed in season one of Bates Motel ~ which I think has now become, possibly my FAVOURITE series ever.
On Monday morning Jake and I took a little trip down to Starbucks (our favourite place in the world) and ordered some drinks – obvs. Whilst Jake stuck to our typical "Iced Vanilla Latte", I opted for something slightly different and tried out the new "Cold Brew Vanilla Sweet Cream". We stayed there for near enough two hours, as we usually do when we go, talking about life and the future.
There's something so relaxing about a chilled conversation in a coffee shop, don't ya think?

One of my favourite things to do is to take walks out and about and take lots and lots of photographs. I'm definitley a photography addict, so whenever I go for a walk I'm constantly stopping to photograph absolutely everything I see. After our trip to Starbucks we took a wonder around and a whole load of images for Instagram (as we usually do.)
What have you been up to this week?

After Historicon, I'll need to build some panel storage racks but thats a project for another day.
Woodland Scenics Static Grass - 2 parts Light Green (FL364) and 1 part Dark Green (FL636). The affix the static grass to the board I put down a think layer of undiluted matt medium. Work in relatively small areas (18 x 18 inches). The static grass is applied by placing it in an old wire mesh strainer which I tap against my hand (like a terrain making tambourine). The strainer is held about 3-4 inches above the panel. Once one section is done move onto the the next.
When brushing the matt medium along the edge of an existing section it's best to only brush away from the sceniced portion (in the second photo it would be to the right or top of the picture frame). You'll pull some fibers into the new area but those will get covered up by the new layer when it's applied.
You can also use standard white glue as an adhesive. Ive found matt medium to be a bit better as it never yellows - sometimes white glue will yellow over the passage of a few years.
You want to wet the top but not soak it - if you've got water dribbling off the edges of the panel then you've put on too much. It's not really a problem but greatly extends drying time.
I use spray bottles from old household cleaners to apply both the water and the diluted matt medium.
Please notice how I've pulled the panel apart - thats so they don't get "glued together" while the matt medium dries. As with most useful terrain making hints, I've learned this one the hard way.
Bragdon Enterprises for my model railroad. It's easy to apply - just put a little in the center of the crater and rub it in - the friction from the rubbing causes the material to adhere to the surface.
Let me know how you think the craters came out. In the fall, I'm planning to do a "WW I themed panel" with trenches and craters do this was a little bit of a test.

Phytoplankton form the base of many food webs in lakes. This method uses the principle that an increase in nutrients (particularly phosphorus) leads to an increase in phytoplankton biomass and a change in the taxonomic composition, often leading to an increased occurrence of cyanobacteria (blue-green algae).
Phytoplankton utilise sunlight energy and dissolved nutrients converting these into organic materials which are often consumed by higher life forms such as fish.

Flood Damage Cleanup & Water Removal in Boca Raton, Deerfield Beach, Delray Beach, Parkland, Pompano Beach and Surrounding Areas
Our technicians are equipped with state-of-the-art water removal and flood damage gear, including moisture meters, thermal imaging devices, powerful water extraction pumps, dehumidifiers, air movers, and thermo-hygrometers.
Get Me Dry Today sets the standard for flood damage cleanup and water removal in Pompano Beach, Coral Springs, and other communities in Palm Beach County and Broward County. We are the best at what we do because we recruit top-quality professionals, and we provide ongoing training. They take what they do very seriously, and they get the job done right the first time, every time. They will find and remove moisture wherever it exists, and we can subsequently complete all of the flood damage repair and restoration tasks.
Insurance Assistance
Most of our clients have never filed water damage claims with their homeowners insurance companies, and the fine print can be difficult to interpret when it comes to flood damage cleanups. One thing is for sure: Flood damage per se is not covered under a typical home insurance policy.
However, since flooding is so common here in our part of the country, many people choose to carry additional flood insurance. In fact, mortgage companies require this type of coverage for homes that they are financing that sit in flood zones. We can help you determine if you are covered, and if you are, we can bill the insurance company directly.
We Never Sleep!
Flood damage can strike at any hour of the day or night, any day of the week, and we are well aware of the fact that water damage can expand moment by moment. As a response, our emergency hotline is fully staffed 24 hours a day, seven days a week. Whenever you need a water removal and flood damage cleanup in Boca Raton, Delray Beach, Parkland, or any other city in our service area, we can be reached by phone at 855-443-8379.

BIMscript™ a new worldwide standard for objects
A smart and open script for objects has been a dream for all, a vision for some, but for us, it is part of our MISSION!
BIM is about collaborative information management and increasing the ability to spread know-how to all parties. Cloud and object technology give us new ways to resolve this going beyond "ordinary" BIM or simple BIM objects that are made out of a set of properties connected to simple geometry and sometimes these properties are without values (object authors want the designers to fill it out!)
A BIM model consists of objects, components, materials and composites all with varying levels of information (more bad than good!). The right place to start to get a richer and more intelligent BIM model that can really calculate waste, energy, logistics, construction processes, bills of materials, clashes and assist in actually design is to make smarter objects. Architects, contractors and engineers understand the real power of having access to all variations, materials, complexities, functionalities and constraints which come from manufacturer specific objects. This information is managed from the manufacturers, where the experts with all this information and know-how can deploy it.
Most manufacturers today are using Mechanical CAD solutions such as Catia, Solidworks, Inventor, Siemens NX, Solid Edge, as well as others with complementary Product Content Management solutions like PDM/PLM to manage all versions, variations and complexity for production purposes.
Today we suffer in the Building Industry, we lag behind major areas such as automotive and aerospace, but we just complain that our software tools and our industry is slow.... Stop complaining, lift up your head and look to the sky. The Cloud. This is the answer where a central database of knowledge already exists in some form. The power to use this knowledge and actually speed up and pass what the PDM/PLM solutions could potentially do for us in our industry…
We can do even better and we have the chance to close the information loop.
With BIMscript™ and LENA our objective is to build an open and well documented standard for the purpose of re-using the information that is already available in the manufacturer's solutions for production. The bathtub you specify today in your projects goes back to manufacturer to be re-produced in their Mechanical CAD/CAM solution, so why don't we do it better and smarter and close the loop?
We open up new technology in a way where we can have a vibrant global community of object developers and also invite all manufacturers to actively start to develop their own objects. This will be the great leap forward, instead of the current closed solutions. Today parties try to get project development and then keep things for themselves, even defining their own standards which then obstructs the community to enter "their" market.
Now we have opened pandora's box and we are letting you all in!
It will be a democracy, where you will be empowered with a script that can develop objects for most of the BIM and 3D CAD softwares with one single standard. One script to rule them all. Properties and metadata are cleverly added in the cloud, so it can be managed by more people in a role-based multi-user environment and support any kind of local classifications system or local property definition schemes such as COBie or BIP. Objects will not only have LOD, they will also have LOI, Level of Information, more data can be added downstream in the construction process within the cloud environment.
And it doesn't stop there!
With BIMscript™ objects will be able to have configurations, material selections, running calculations, all to serve the engineers and specifiers with better, more accurate knowledge.
And we just got started!
The future will enable a common user interface, more and smarter parametric transformations and of course more file formats (both in and out)will be compatible with BIMscript™. Finally since BIMscript™ will be 3D WebGL, this enables all the variations and configurations including LODs to be evaluated and chosen in any web browser on any device. Static file formats will get a new life, since we can make the configurations in the cloud and generate the object file format on the fly. IFC is the perfect example where WebGL will enable configurations without the need of having parametric IFC files.
So, join us in our quest to bring the mechanical CAD world closer to our BIM world. The result is that we will all enjoy great benefits regardless how we use BIM and where we are in the process.
SPEED UP and join the revolution

CEO and Founder of BIMobject®

If there is cachet in having an entrance even the average Mensa candidate can't find, the new Dovetail has it. But try to find that door. It leads to deliciously complex food by chef-owner John Fraser doled out by scrupulously trained servers. Creamy clam chowder with chorizo, luscious pork belly with kale and an egg, potato gnocchi rich with veal short rib and foie gras butter, lamb's tongue in a mini pressed sandwich. I liked or loved almost everything I tasted in two visits. Still, local penny-pinchers like me, wary of weekday entrées that start at $27 and go to $34, will be pleased by Sunday's $38 prix fixe menu with many of the same dishes including exquisite sea scallops with blood orange and hollandaise, and crusty lamb shank with polenta and chestnuts. But we're unhappy when a picture-perfect whole roasted chicken for two, presented at the table alongside porcini, rich cheese-layered potatoes, and spinach, goes back to the kitchen for carving and returns missing some parts. Where is the rest? we ask. There's only one leg and one thigh. The bird is carved as delicately as if it were for Queen Elizabeth, but both dark meat and wings with much white meat attached have vanished. It hits the table minutes later. A slice of excellent rabbit terrine cut into three fingers to match three fingers of toast seems meager, and carrot cake lacks cake. Though the entrance and bar are spiffy, bare walls and faded color in the stripped down, dimly lit room cry out for art or flowers.

Will You Gain Weight From Lifting Weights?
January 21, 2014 By 23 Comments
From what I've seen, there are two camps when it comes to women and strength training: Those who don't want to gain weight from lifting weights and those who do want to (that is, gain muscle). This article will give you the facts about achieving either goal with weightlifting. Fat Loss and Weightlifting Hopefully you understand that lifting weights is critical to fat loss. Even so, you might be worried you'll actually gain weight from lifting weights. If this is you, check out {Read More…}

Gun Counter Jockey Rule #3: Argue with the customer
Thats it… Right? Rule #3? Or is it a little further down the list?
So I was in the local gun shop the other day and the gun counter jockey who was behind the counter was playing with an AR-15 lower… Click, reset, click, reset, click, reset… 'I just don't know what I think about this here trigger yet.', he said. After about the 10th time or so I had to chime in with a few soft words and say "You can damage that thing by doing that, you know."
And then he begins to argue with me about how 'thats not even remotely possible, they do it all the time, he's never seen anything like that happen, and if it did break then he wouldn't want to own that piece of junk anyway'.
It was interesting because it was entirely a one-way argument that he was having. I even tried to give him several friendly ways to back out two or three times during the one sided debate… "Well, I've personally never seen it happen, but…" (…) "Yeah I know what you are saying, but I sure would hate to have to tell my boss that I broke something…" (…) "Yeah, you may be right…" But with each time that I opened my idiot mouth he just kept digging himself deeper and deeper into the depths of piss poor customer service. Right up and until the point where I had enough and I literally had to walk away to end it. "Look, I'm not gonna argue with you, and I honestly don't care what you do… but I personally wouldn't do it with mine."
Now, like I said earlier I have never seen an AR lower get damaged from pulling the trigger without an upper on it, but who gives a crap… I dont care if its 100% an urban legend. Are you really gonna sit there and argue with a customer over something so trivial? I'm not advocating any kind of reckless or dangerous activity here that needs to be immediately corrected to save someone from harm. I'm talking about not pulling the trigger on a partially dissembled gun. But not only is his the one starting the argument, but he's the one being argumentative the entire time and is pushing it forward at every step along the way. Wow.
I think probably the best course of action for that clown behind the counter is to just agree to disagree and leave it at that. A customer should not have to literally walk away to end the argument that they are trying very hard to make clear that they dont want to have. Maybe one line of push-back at the statement I made to inform me that you disagree and then leave it at that. I mean just imagine if you got that kind of treatment at any other retail establishment. Wow. It would be bad.
Get over yourself, Dude.

I couldn't resist embroidering one more towel for the White Elephant Gift Exchange at the RV Rally & Show in Hershey this week.
I googled "campfires" and chose this clip art and downloaded it into my TruEmbroidery Software to convert to an embroidery design.
Then I printed out the pattern in it's actual size.
That helps to place it properly on the towel.
I added some lettering because we are all "Happy Campers" at the rally.
I changed the thread colors slightly too.
Notice my first design said "Happy Camping" by mistake so I redid it to read "Happy Camper"!
My Hubby likes this one too.
If we don't do the gift exchange I'll going to give them to our club president because she works so hard for all us club members.
So true…isn't it!
The media loves to tell us all the bad things going on around the world but there is a lot of good going on too.
We all need to laugh more.

Talk:Marina, Los Santos
| This talk page is for discussing the Marina, Los Santos article.
This includes commenting on the article, questioning whether it is correct, or adding suggestions for improvements
Questions about GTA games, not about the wiki page itself, should be asked at Community:Questions.Remember to always add your signature to the end of your comments/replies using four tildes:
I think "Marina, Los Santos" would work better, following the style of the different Chinatowns. --IanPhoenix (talk) 05:41, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
I too think that it should be changed to along the lines of "Marina in Los Santos" not "Marina in gta san andreas" because as far as this wiki is concerned los santos is an in-game city and the page should be concerning the area, not a specific game especially since its likely to feature in GTA V. And if there is any differnces when the game is released, both peices of information should be split up in chronilogical order on this page. But it should be changed so not to cause confusion with other Marinas.--Raggi Boy (talk) 21:22, 13 December 2011 (UTC)

I have sewn in the sleeves yesterday and I am happy with the overall look of the coat, but the coat turned out to wide in the shoulders. The schoulders seams are at least an inch too low.
Ofcourse this can be fixed. Either by taking the coat, which might give problems at the hips, and would mean removing the collar. Or by altering the armscye. For best results a combination of both is probably the best solution. But at this moment I just don't have the time, I have to start packing for the vikingmarket this weekend at the Archeon. Or the energy, to think or do, something about it. My fibromyalgie is acting up, big time, which isn't surprising, as autumn deciced to come early in the Netherlands.
All in all I am getting quite frustrated but I always knew this costume would be a long-term project. My current mantra is: it's the end result that counts.

The purpose of this assessment probe is to elicit students' ideas about molecules. The probe is designed to find out whether students recognize that various examples of both physical and biological matter, ranging from objects to materials, can be made of molecules. It also helps determine whether students recognize a hierarchy of structure in the composition of matter ranging from molecules to single atoms to parts of an atom.
All of these chapters are great to begin units or lessons. If the students actually do these you learn some of there preconceived ideas and how to address them.
James (El Paso, TX)
In this book chapter, students engage in an assessment probe to help them determine what things are made of molecules. Students then describe the "rule" or reason why they selected their answers. The author includes teacher notes including content background, curricular and instructional considerations for elementary, middle school and high school levels. The author also includes suggestions for administering and assessing the probe and related research and publications. This is an excellent tool for addressing student misconceptions of molecules.
Maureen Stover (Seaside, CA)
I found this to be an interesting pre-assessment of student's knowledge of molecules and the hierarchy of structure. Although at first it seemed simplistic, the exercise does give insight into student's prior conception of molecules in both physical and biological matter. I really like the section on Suggestions for Instruction and Assessment—which offer very helpful ideas.
Kathy Sparrow (Delray Beach, FL)
This chapter actually includes the preface and introductory information to put the formative assessment probe about the molecular structure of matter into clear context and to offer information about the understanding that students have at a variety of age levels. It is one specific probe with a great deal of information about how to use formative assessment probes and what others are available.

International Institute for Restorative Practices
Restorative Questions
Restorative Practices
What is Restorative Practices?
We know that by fully implementing Positive Behavior Intervention and Supports / BEST and by giving students the opportunity to use Restorative Practices when behavioral errors occur we can decrease the need for referrals, suspension and expulsion and create safer schools in the process. Commonly used in juvenile and adult corrections and treatment programs, restorative practices may result in sanctions, but the relationship damaged by the offense is the priority, this damaged relationship can and should be repaired and the offending individual can and should be reintegrated, not only for the good of that individual but also for that of the community as a whole.
Peace Path
What is a Peace Path?
In Napa Valley Unified School District, we have begun placing a higher emphasis on conflict resolution and restorative practices. The peace path is a three step process that schools use to find common ground between feuding students and tap in to the idea of empathy. The students first express how they feel given the conflict. Next they explain what could change so that they feel better. Lastly, students talk about what should be done next time to avoid such a situation. To see this in action click here or contact McPherson, NVLA, or Phillips Elementary!

s much as I love getting gone and jamming to forever songs that never end, it's another thing to listen to stoned out musicians going at it as well. and as much as I love Peter Green he is so much better when he's playing in a, dare I say, structured psychedelic tune...every lick counts, every note saturated with Greeny emotion and incredible taste...like on Then Play On...a psychedelic masterpiece...but this is very cool too..Fleetwood Mac Blues band and Greeny really had nothing to prove, but kids, drugs can be a real bad thing for some you..ReplyDelete

Will seek votes on development plank: Jakhar
Alleging that sitting SAD MP of Ferozepur Lok Sabha constituency had "let down" the people, Congress candidate from the seat Sunil Jakhar today said he would seek votes on development plank and not on the basis of caste or community.chandigarh Updated: Mar 25, 2014 21:54 IST
Alleging that sitting SAD MP of Ferozepur Lok Sabha constituency had "let down" the people, Congress candidate from the seat Sunil Jakhar today said he would seek votes on development plank and not on the basis of caste or community.
"I will not go by caste and community combination. I will go to people to seek votes with the agenda of development.
People know what they received during last five years and they also see deficiencies. I think people of Ferozepur have been let down during all these years," Jakhar said today.
Jakhar will lock horns with sitting MP and SAD candidate Sher Singh Ghubaya.
60-year old Jakhar, who is MLA from Abohar and the Leader of Opposition in Punjab Assembly, said the sitting MP from Ferozepur had "failed" to deliver on many counts, including opening of Hussainiwala border with Pakistan, solving waterlogging problem and improving "pathetic" condition of urban areas.
When asked if he had any inclination of getting the ticket, Jakhar candidly admitted that he was not expecting it.
"I was not expecting. The party had already given me a big responsibility (Leader of Opposition in Punjab Assembly) which was I was trying to fulfill," he said.
Jakhar, son of former Lok Sabha Speaker Balram Jakhar, said he did not try for a Lok Sabha seat as he felt that others should also get chance to fight elections.
Asked about resentment shown against his candidature by Guru Har Sahai MLA Rana Gurmeet Sodhi who was aspiring for the ticket, Jakhar said he understood his unhappiness, but asserted he (Sahai) would realise why the ticket was given to him. "I am sure he realises why and how the ticket was given.
I can very well understand his unhappiness. But we will work together (to win this seat)," he said. There were reports that Sodhi had expressed displeasure over the ticket being given to Jakhar.
In 2009 Lok Sabha polls, Ghubaya defeated Congress candidate Jagmeet Brar by 21,000 votes. Ghubaya belongs to the Rai Sikh community which has a sizable population in Ferozepur.

If politicians were NASCAR drivers, whose logos would they plaster on their jumpsuits? For George W. Bush it'd be a toss-up: top funder Morgan Stanley's non-descript blue triangle has a monetary, but definitely not an aesthetic, edge over number-two contributor Merrill Lynch's iconic bull. For Sen. Norm Coleman, a big red target would be front and center (same for Mark Kennedy, who's received more than $70,000 from the retailer this election cycle). But would these embroidered patches really suggest a candidate's loyalties? In this series I look look into what can be gleaned from politicians' financial disclosures.
This investigation began with a post on contributions to CD5 candidate Mike Erlandson's campaign by defense industry PACs. While the amounts are relatively small--$4000 from PACs and individuals affliated with the corporate recipients of lucrative US military contracts--the implication isn't: Erlandson is campaigning as the man to end the war, which he's characterized as a "train wreck," saying he "opposed the Iraq war before the first shots were fired in 2003." Hard words coming from a candidate who accepted funds from Parson's Corporation, a firm whose government contract to build 150 health centers in Iraq was yanked when it was revealed most of its funds went to build only six facilities.
How does Erlandson justify these gifts? More to the point, if he has "The values to get it right," as his website motto states, would he give back such funds?
I left a voicemail, left messages with staffers, and emailed questions to Erlandson's office, but haven't yet received a reply. So instead I asked Frank Sorauf, University of Minnsota professor emeritus who co-authored the defense of the McCain-Feingold Act in McConnell v. F.E.C..
"If I were in his position I would tell my campaign manager to send it back with a non-inflammatory note, but honest and forthright, saying in view of their record you don't feel you can accept their contribution," he says. "That ought to be easy for a candidate to do."
It also might be smart to do; other candidates, including Erlandson's primary challenger, Keith Ellison, have vowed to refuse funds from defense-related sources.
More to come...

|Build problem in server trunk.
|Mon, 01 Nov 2010 16:20:15 GMT
I was having problems building trunk this morning, and it looks like the root cause of the problem is a javassist version mismatch. The openwebbeans project is using the javassist 3.12.0.GA version to build and Geronimo is using the Servicemix bundlized 3.7.GA version. The build failure was a ClassNotFoundException attempting to load one of the javassist utility classes that is not included in the 3.7.GA version. I did a quick experiment and created a 3.12.0.GA version of the servicemix bundle, and the build problem went away. Unfortunately, the servicemix project does not have a 3.12.0.GA version of this bundle yet. I've pinged the servicemix dev list about getting a new version, but I'd not seen a reply. I'm thinking that we might want to create a Geronimo hosted bundle of this release and get a snapshot deployed. That way, the Geronimo build can pick up the snapshot until the question of where this is hosted gets resolved. At least that way, we'll still be able to build. Does this seem like a reasonable plan?

Cloud chambers work by creating a supersaturated vapor in a chamber. Particles that pass through ionize the air, causing the vapor to condense along the track, forming "rain". An external magnetic field (even that of the earth) cause the particles to curve.

|You may wish to hang this bouquet
by a vintage dressing table.
Brief Description: I think this is a lovely way to give a simple bouquet of flowers. Baby's breath and red roses would look delightful tucked inside of this embroidered wrap. I used tissue paper flowers for the photograph because these were what I had at hand. Make something new out of something old.
Supply List:
- embroidered pot holder
- embroidery floss, I used red
- embroidery needle
- scissors
- Turn the pot holder face down and fold together two of it's opposite points to create the cone shape. Pin down the sides if necessary.
- Thread your embroidery needle as thickly as you wish and stitch these two side together with a firm decorative stitch.
- Stuff the cone shaped wrap with a posy and give it to your sweetheart or friend.
Additional Suggestions: For those of you who still celebrate May Day, this little project would be quiet charming. There are so many of these little embroidered pot holders for sale in antique malls and flee markets for mere pocket change.
|The cone shape allows for a charming little
package for rose buds and baby's breath.
|An old-fashioned pot holder I picked up in a local antique shop.

I totally agree with Alaska! My dad and stepmom went there for their honeymoon and came back with such beautiful pictures and video footage that I've wanted to go there ever since and that was 25 years ago. I also want to go to Italy (looks beautiful!) and Ireland (that's where my grandpa was from.ReplyDeleteReplies
:) Alaska will be soon, I think. Since NCL sails out of Vancouver, it's an easy one for last minute deals! :) I still just want to go everywhere!Delete
I am the least travelled person in the world... well pretty close to it, I would love to see Ireland and Scotland. First though, I would like to do a North American road-trip.ReplyDeleteReplies
I think it's important to see your own country. :) I love so many things about travelling in Canada and I am working on getting to each and every state. :)Delete
I have a travel bucket list, and have been to many places in the world. However, I have developed a distaste for flying, which puts a bit of a damper on things :-)ReplyDelete
Warmest regards,
That is really unfortunate, Joy! I don't mind the flying most of the time. Airport time is time wasted, though, if you ask me!Delete
I would like to go everywhere. Everywhere! But, I think I might save some of it until after the kids are gone. There are some places, I'm not sure I'd feel very safe. My hubby and I are definitely going to make it to all 50 states. I would really love to spend at least a month in Europe. There are all kinds of places my hubby would like to go to jump off of things. Have fun with your travels!ReplyDeleteReplies
:) My kids are getting older so that helps a bit. I still have a thirteen year old, but I love to travel with my seventeen year old. Thirteen yo is just too cool sometimes, ya know? All I know is, the more I learn about this industry, the more I want to do!Delete
One of my dreams was to work on a cruise ship! I love traveling and just loved the prestige of it all. Luckily we get to travel quite a bit. Now it's discovering how to do it with the twin toddlers!ReplyDelete
Been to Italy - that was high on my bucket list. I think I would like to go to Turkey next :)

Super Mom 2
Tags : time management, games2win
I don't have an idea how it feels being a mother, and for the rest of my life I won't really know that feeling, cause I'm a male. Actually, I don't know how being a father is cause I am still single. However I am sure that it must be more and more difficult than this game. In Super Mom 2, you are trying to take care of your twins. There are many objects and actions in the game, but all you have to do is clicking them in the right order in a specified amount of time. The game might be better if you could be more in game by doing actions yourself rather than just clicking, but it is still worth to play. The graphics are made well, and the background music is funny like its story. Have fun!Play a random game
