So we're at 9 months as of yesterday (yay!) and I'm met with some new feelings on the pregnancy thing. Up until month 7 or even 8, I hated being pregnant. I couldn't stand it. I kept saying "I hate pregnancy. I will love her when she's out, but I can't wait for her to get out." Between the overwhelming shopping, the throwing up for 5.5 months, not "feeling" pregnant until 7 months, really sharp back pain, and all of the other things I've complained about (and there is quite a list!), I just couldn't deal with it and wanted it to be over from day one.
In the last couple weeks, I've really liked being pregnant, and I can't say why. Yes, my back hurts, my feet are swelling, and sleeping is hard – but I expected all of that to be happening for awhile, and the fact that it's all just hurting now is pretty amazing. My OB chalks it up to me being a dog walker and a dog trainer. My job is active, which keeps my muscles working, blood flowing, and me mentally engaged. I've been VERY fortunate in that I could continue to do my job throughout this entire journey.
I think that I'm really going to miss having a lumpy belly. The belly isn't perfectly round – sometimes a leg will stick out, or the baby will shift to one side, leaving me lopsided for part of the day. I'm looking down now, and it looks like the top of an apple with a dent in the middle with two big lumps on either side of my belly button. She's really shoved in there, and is running / has run out of space, so she's moving around a lot more to get comfortable. I love showing my husband when she's moving and shaking – he can see it from across the room. I've had students laugh at my belly when it starts rockin' and rollin' during a lecture.
She also gets the hiccups, which cracks me up. Very deliberate, on rhythm, little hiccups that last anywhere from 2-10 minutes. It's the funniest thing.
That part, I think I'm really going to miss.

In order to continue the streak of disillusioned-with-society's-warped-expectations-of-happiness, surviving-as-a-criminal books of which I've accidentally seen the movie version before I read the book, I just finished book #34 of the year, and it happened to fall into this pattern. It was American Psycho, by Bret Easton Ellis. It was horrifying and I really loved it.
This is the second Ellis book I've read – the first was Less Than Zero, for a class. I really liked Less Than Zero, mostly because of Ellis' straightforward, minimalist writing style. Through scarce details and minor descriptions, he was able to tell a story full of revelations and meaning.
I felt like American Psycho was no different as far as the revelations and critical view of society goes, but rather than minimal detail, this novel was packed full of mind-numbing, excessive details. Every single character was described in detailed terms of the brands and styles of clothing that they were wearing. There were in-depth debates about reservations, restaurants, when exactly it's appropriate to wear an argyle sweater vest, and the subtleties of the business card.
Entire chapters sometimes consisted of descriptions of a musician's career, told in an almost robotic voice that lacked passion, feeling, and even genuine-seeming admiration for the music. This makes sense, as these descriptions were told in the voice of Patrick Bateman. What a creepy guy.
So Patrick Bateman is the American psycho who narrates the novel and serves as its namesake. He is an obsessive, detail-oriented (lol), well-groomed, narcissistic Wall Street "yuppie," seemingly devoid of human feelings, who attempts to fill his own materialistic emptiness with random acts of violence that escalate as the novel goes on. The detail with which Bateman describes the outfits of those around him transfers to the details of these murders, which made a lot of passages difficult to read.
The whole novel is really hilarious, even with these gruesome murders (usually sexual in nature) thrown in. Bateman is often mistaken for someone else, a mistake he never corrects. He's constantly filled with a "nameless dread," something he usually blames on insignificant details, like the presence of a cook or a tiny crack in the wall.
It gets less and less funny as you realize that he's completely losing his grip on reality, which demonstrates Ellis' genius. By the end of the novel, you're holding 400 pages of words, unsure if any of them actually happened or not. Ah, so good.
There was also this creepy way in which I could sometimes relate to Patrick Bateman. I'd never do any of the things he does to people, but he has these brief thoughts that are terrifyingly relatable, which made me almost as uncomfortable as the gory murder scenes.
It didn't necessarily bother me that I had seen the movie before reading this book. Christian Bale was a great Patrick Bateman, a little too perfect-looking with just enough smarm. Plus, I don't think any movie could take a character as far into insanity as Ellis was able to write, so reading it was a different experience, but picturing Bale as Bateman served as a good visual.
It was interesting to read about the reception of this novel when it first came out, too. Ellis apparently received 13 death threats, images of himself with his eyeballs gouged out, (a notable Bateman-tactic), etc. I feel like it's important to move past the belief that authors only write what they know. It's ridiculous to assume Ellis is a misogynistic murderer because a character he created happens to be.
Also, another unrelated funny thing that came to me, mostly because I just finished Trainspotting and it was in the same vein as American Psycho: I like to think that Sick Boy (from the former) would have gotten along with the characters in the latter if, in some alternate universe, he went to New York. Just a thought.
Anyway, after the previous two novels I think I've earned the right to grab something fluffy this time around, maybe try and restore my hope in humanity. ◊
And when he reaches out to touch my tie, I catch his hand before his fingers make it, telling him, 'Your compliment was sufficient.'"
– page 108 (poor Luis)
"… there is an idea of Patrick Bateman, some kind of abstraction, but there is no real me, only an entity, something illusory, and though I can hide my cold gaze and you can shake my hand and feel flesh gripping yours and maybe you can even sense our lifestyles are probably comparable: I simply am not there."

This page will provide links to the subject matter listed. We need to remember that the Fiscal Crisis was the result of the government cutting back on regulation allowing the financial system free reign with no threat of consequences. We will find regarding the Financial Crisis that 1)Clinton enabled it, 2) Bush implemented it and 3) Obama is maintaining it. Nobody is being prosecuted for fraud despite the misrepresentation in the Financial Industry and the devastation to a lot of innocent people.
The President, the Republicans and the Democrats are being bought off by the banks on a unsustainable track. The original Tea Partiers are mad as hell. They do not know what is wrong, but they were affected and are striking out.
So – this blog is created to provide substantiated explanations of what happened. I say substantiated because there is a lot of misinformation. I always like to quote Senator Patrick Moynihan; You are entitled to your opinion, but not your own set of facts.

National Cyber Security Awareness Month is a timely reminder that our brave, new world — ever more high-tech, connected and "smart" — holds peril as well as promise.
It also reminds us that cybersecurity is a shared responsibility and that there are important steps each of us can take to increase digital safety for ourselves and our families.
"This has been a challenging year for data management, privacy and information security," says Briane Grey, City National's head of corporate security. "At the same time, an 'awareness' month like this creates an opportunity to educate people in ways that mitigate threats and increase our nation's resiliency."
Gravity and Concern
National Cyber Security Awareness Month - October - was launched in 2004 by a partnership headed by the U.S. Department of Homeland Security (DHS) as part of a broad effort to help Americans stay safer and more secure online. This year's events take place in the shadow of a number of well-publicized data breaches, such as the Sony Pictures hack late last year and the more recent large-scale data breach at OPM and the IRS.
Gravity and concern are appropriate responses to the recent parade of alarming news stories, Grey acknowledges. That's why Homeland Security uses National Cyber Security Awareness Month to help people focus on the steps they can take to protect themselves.
"The good news is that there are things we can do at the individual level, at the family level, and at the small business level to enjoy the benefits of a wired world while minimizing risk and protecting our information," he says.
Five Basic Steps
Grey endorses the five basic steps that DHS suggests all Americans follow, not just during National Cyber Security Awareness Month, but throughout the year:
- Set strong passwords, and don't share them with anyone. Avoid using obvious or sensitive information about yourself or your family
- Optimize your operating system, browser, and other critical software by installing updates promptly.
- Talk about Internet safety with family, friends and colleagues. Maintain open dialogue and spread the knowledge.
- Limit the amount of personal information you post online, and use privacy settings to avoid sharing information widely.
- Be cautious about the offers you receive or read online —if something sounds too good to be true, it probably is.
Continuing Education
Grey also suggests using this annual event as a reminder to make time for continuing education in information security, as cyber security is a shared responsibility for both the home and work environment.
The site has three key sections.
"I want to STAY SAFE ONLINE" talks in clear and simple terms about malware and botnets, spam and "phishing," hacked accounts, and the ways and means of securing your own network:
"I want to TEACH ONLINE SAFETY" offers key concepts for teaching children of all ages how to stay safe on the Internet. There are special sections for kids in grades K-2 and 3-5, as well as for middle- and high-school students. A separate section addresses the special risks and responsibilities of Internet use in college.
"I want to keep my BUSINESS SAFE ONLINE" covers wide patches of ground, including how to assess information security risks, monitor threats, report cyberattacks, and implement a cybersecurity plan:
"As a bank, we have a compelling interest in protecting the information security of our clients, and we devote extensive resources to the task," Grey says. "We support National Cyber Security Awareness Month because we know that the active participation of our clients — as individuals, family members and business owners — is critical to helping us succeed in our mission."

After an epic victory over overrated Aaron Rodgers and the Packers where are the Bills ranked:
"That's how you close out a season at home. The Bills have both remaining
games on the road. It could be Buffalo's first season since 2004 with a
positive point differential."
Point differential! Huh? A two spot jump not barely ahead of the Dolphins
"At 8-6, their playoff hopes are alive. Did they save coach Doug Marrone's job?"
Prisco still questioning Marrone's job stability? Love it, Three spot leap
Yahoo 14:
"(8-6, LW: 16)That was a great win against Green Bay, and this defense is incredible. The Bills might have to win in Week 17 at New England to get in the playoffs, but it's a testament to them that they're still in the conversation."
Oh, good defense!
That was
a pretty complete win delivered by the
Bills on Sunday. Nothing fluky about it.
Bacarri Rambo was something special. Rambo made a mockery of a small-town sheriff -- I mean,
Aaron Rodgers and the
Packers offense -- proving that nothing is over in Buffalo. You just don't turn it off, either. I fully expect that
Bills defense to blow things up
in Oakland
New England. #
BillsMafia #ColonelTrautman
Wait what? Did he just predict a win at the Patriots?
"14. Buffalo Bills (No. 17; 8-6): They may not make the playoffs, but
that signature win over the Packers could save Doug Marrone's job."
Consensus that it was a big win for Marrone but maybe not his real estate agent
Walterfootball :
16. Buffalo Bills (8-6). Previously: #17
Still behind the Dolphins? Ouch Walt

Today just after 5PM Fun Spot America opened their gates to the new back area of their new expansion. Although the coasters are not quite ready, there are new rides, such as the Enterprise (formally the Wheelie at Six Flags Over Georgia), Rip Tide, and Tilt – A- Whirl with new locations for the Paratrooper and the double decker carousel topped with the Statue of Liberty. The new kiddy coaster was also under construction. The area had a midway feel with brick pavers along the path. The Sky Coaster was also not ready, but a new eating/party area was open and very spacious. So how much is it to ride the Wheelie again from Six Flags Over Georgia? $6 a ride, or you may want to seriously consider an annual pass for $127, because White Lightening looks AMAZING.
Here are a few pictures of our trip into the expansion.

Agreement To Foster
Phone: (310) 650-2870
Email: email@example.com
Thank you for giving generously of your time and Home to foster an Eloise Rescue dog. In order to assure the safety and well being of your foster dog and to assist with their adoption, we ask that you review the following information.
Please give your dog at least two or three days to settle in to your home. Remember these dogs have been living in a kennel so a home is a big adjustment. They may not sleep through the night at first, they may or may not be house trained, and there may be jealously issues between your new foster and your dog. This will pass and we are always available to help work this out.
As an Eloise Rescue Foster you agree to the following:
I, the Foster Care provider named below, understand that Eloise Rescue and its volunteers have no way of predicting or guaranteeing the actions, behavior, or disposition of any dog that we place into foster care. I understand that although every effort has been made to assess the temperament of dogs rescued by Eloise Rescue, being living animals, they may act unpredictably in any given situation. I must take every precaution to prevent accidents and guard against unpredicted actions by any dog that I foster.
I promise to take care of the dogs I foster while they are in my possession providing food, water, and shelter as needed. I also promise to notify Eloise Rescue if any fostered dog is in need of routine veterinary care so that this care can be provided in a timely manner.
At no time will I allow this dog to be a nuisance to people or other animals. To that end I will keep it safely confined inside a house when it is not with me or with a member of my family. At no time will the dog be placed outside on a tie out or left locked out in a yard. When off of my property, the dog will be kept on a leash unless it is in a fenced area approved for free running dogs.
Note: Eloise Rescue does not recommend the use of a dog crate for confinement inside the house unless absolutely necessary.
We require ID tags on the dog's collar at all times in case the dog escapes. We require that the dog be walked on harness, or slip collar, or choke collar – or on collar provided (always make sure it is tight enough by sticking two fingers in and that is the correct tightness).

|Queen Galadriel
|Reviewed Chapter: 1 on 4/29/2009
|Oh poor Bilbo! I've been hoping you would do something like this, show us how you invision it actually happening. Although I was introduced to LOTR first, I became familiar with the Hobbit very soon afterward, at a very impressionable age, and I find it hard to imagine such an overall cheerful story in a dark light, though it makes perfect logical sense.
This was excellently done! *nudges a line of other Hobbit plot bunnies forward*
Author Reply: Thank you dear! It's good to hear from you again!
It is difficult, sometimes to reconcile TH with LotR--they are so different in many ways. I thought this might explain some of it!
|Reviewed Chapter: 1 on 11/24/2008
|That would be frightening indeed. I think I would have passed out, lol. I do like your take on this, that The Hobbit was so much more carefree, so to speak, since Bilbo narrated it that way. It keeps open the possibility that it was more frightening than Tolkien wrote it, so that others could make it more in sync with the tone of LOTR.
Author Reply: That was exactly my thinking on the subject--it's clear that the evil Bilbo encountered on his Adventure was pretty dark, yet he told it in such a light and humorous manner, that it doesn't seem all that bad until you look at it objectively.
I'm glad you liked it!

|Hello Dreamflower,
This is really delightful wee story -poor Bilbo being thrown about by those Trolls but what a sweetheart for setting the sheep free!
What a great idea to expand on the book's version of this incident. You did it extremely well. The quarrelling Trolls reminded me of (very much) taller versions of Óin and Glóin - except there was no sensible Thorin to pull them apart!
I enjoyed this muchly!
Maureen :)
Author Reply: I thought it might show a bit of both his hobbity compassion and his impulsive Tookish side, if he felt sorry for the sheep. And a sheep made a lot more sense than a talking purse.
You know, I had not thought of that! But you're right! Still JRRT did describe Oin and Gloin as fighting.
I'm glad you enjoyed it!
|Reviewed Chapter: 1 on 11/1/2008
|So, the truth is out at last! *grin* Slowly catching up with reviews.
Author Reply: At last! Yes--the three trolls were a lot worse than Bilbo let on, weren't they?
|Grey Wonderer
|Reviewed Chapter: 1 on 10/26/2008
|You know, I have wondered about Bilbo's trolls vs the trolls in LOTR too. If I recall this isn't your first story on the subject either. Didn't you write one in which Pippin questions Bilbo about that very thing? LOL
I enjoyed this very much. Thanks for the link.
Author Reply: No, it's not! The first one I wrote was one of my very earliest stories: "A Question of Trolls". I'm so glad you enjoyed it, dear!
|Baggins Babe
|Reviewed Chapter: 1 on 10/26/2008
|Dear Bilbo, wanting to free the sheep. Somehow that is a very hobbity thing to do, revealing the basic kindness of hobbits.
Very frightening though, for Bilbo and the dwarves. Trolls are not comical I imagine, and their intentions were far from good. Glad there was resistance and thank goodness Gandalf was on hand to deceive until the sun rose.
I'm sure Bilbo gave the Shire children a sanitised version of his travels but the true version probably gave him nightmares.
Author Reply: Not only very hobbity, I think, but very Bilbo. He seemed to easily empathize with others--after all, he pitied Gollum! Also he was impulsive when he allowed his Tookish side to be in charge!
No, I do not think trolls are comical--and yet there seemed to be a "tradition" of "comic trolls" in the Shire. (Think of "Perry-the-Winkle" or Sam's troll-song). It occured to me that Bilbo might be responsible for that perception of trolls, with his story of "Tom, Bert and Bill", who were scary enough even under their comic guise--but not nearly as scary as they would have been in person!
It is easy enough to imagine how much scarier a story The Hobbit would have been if JRRT had used the same style of writing as he did in, say, RotK! But having it in Bilbo's POV, and told in his hobbity way of "making light" of serious things, it comes across as much less scary than it was.
|Reviewed Chapter: 1 on 10/22/2008
|How very hobbit like to rescue that poor sheep! But I can feel Bilbo's horror too that the dwarves were captured and one of them put in the same sack where the sheep was. But all is well that ends well. :)
Namarie, God bless, Antane :)
Author Reply: Well, I was trying to think of something a little more "realistic" than the "enchanted purse" that would alert the trolls to Bilbo's presence--so that seemed reasonable.
Yes, all was well at the end, just as in the original--but it was much more traumatic than poor Bilbo ever let on to the children of the Shire!
|Reviewed Chapter: 1 on 10/22/2008
|An interesting take on a well-known episode. I especially liked the characterization of Óin and Glóin. And the touch with the Quenya was neat.
Author Reply: As I was working through the original, it told us that "Óin and Glóin began to fight", and the word "fight" seemed to me to indicate coming to blows, rather than simply arguing--the Dwarves were always arguing. I tried to imagine what would bring them to that. And I thought that perhaps Glóin might have some of that warlike belligerance we see in his son.
And I remembered Gandalf at the gates of Moria, and thought that he might have used the Quenya in addition to the proclamation in the Common Speech.
I'm very glad that you liked those touches. Thank you!

Author Reply: It's always a good thing to re-read The Hobbit! I'm glad it did that!
And thank you for calling it "multi-layered"--I really appreciate that!

Legend of the Seeker - New TV show
Saw some previews on this new show on TV recently and after going online, I discovered it is a new show based on Terry Goodkind's Sword of Truth books. Big budget and primetime show. They shot it in New Zealand so many of the backgrounds look strikenly similar to LOTR. Nice to see some fantasy on TV again; the genre has been missing since the end of Hercules and Xena.

Re: Legend of the Seeker - New TV show
Same producers as Hercules and Zena too, so they'll be shoting it with praticed ease. I can't wait to see it.

A decline in blood and platelet donations this summer has resulted in a critical shortage in supplies to hospitals.
"Every day, patients recovering from accidents or those receiving treatments for cancer or blood disorders rely on lifesaving blood products regardless of the season," said Shaun Gilmore, president of Red Cross Biomedical Services, in a news release.
Vacations and holidays compound this shortage because fewer blood drives, hosted by volunteer sponsors, are held and fewer donors are available to help.
Individuals of all blood types are encouraged to make an appointment by visiting redcrossblood.org or calling 1-800-REDCROSS (1-800-733-2767). Making an appointment reduces possible wait times at blood donation sites.
To speed up the donation process, donors are welcome to complete a RapidPass online health history questionnaire
Every two seconds, someone in the United States requires blood. The Red Cross must collect nearly 14,000 donations daily to meet the demand of nearly 2,600 hospitals nationwide.

Of all the decisions you can make, there are none more important than determining those with whom you will associate. You can't pick your family or your circumstances early in life, but you can pick everyone else. Those choices will have profound effects on the course of your life and career; ultimately they will accumulate and become your legacy.
As a youth, choosing friends provides the earliest opportunities to get it right, or learn quickly and redirect if you get it wrong. Sometimes others choose you, but not always for admirable reasons. Their motives may be genuine, but can also be based on a perceived ability to influence, manipulate, or even dominate others in the worst of circumstances. Early habits formed here can be difficult to break later in life. Attentive parenting helps guide these choices, although that alone is not always sufficient.
As we grow up, more of our people choices belong to us: broader circles of friends, clubs, schools, work associates and community involvement. These choices have massive influence on the quality of our lives on a day-to-day basis, which is exactly how we live them.
"The company you keep" has the power to either short-circuit a life's potential, or guide one on a path of a life well-lived. I've witnessed both ends of the spectrum and have seen that the path taken hinges upon a crystal clear decision regarding "the company you keep". When things aren't going as they should be, the hope is for a wake-up call before it's too late. Some hear it; sadly, others are tuned to a different frequency when the message goes out.
My long-held belief is that great companies are built by inspired people with shared purpose, working together in an environment of mutual respect and trust. Those inspired people are brought together by choice and circumstances; they stay together if they benefit and strengthen each other over time.
Choose the company you keep wisely and – Enjoy the Journey!

You are currently browsing the monthly archive for April 2009.
Its 10 o clock a Saturday morning and I have been out running, taken a shower, done the dishes and a whole bunch of other stuff that you probably hadn't even started at this time a day! … Ah I am good!.. say it! -Bob you are so good- Thanks!
So anyways there is a whole bunch of cool stuff out there that I want… like things! Not that I am materialistic, because these things I will probably never have, but that doesn't stop me from wanting to have them. .. Its like that And that's the way it is HU!
First of all I would like to have this not practical Swiss army knife, because it has a lot! but then again it costs over 6000 Skr!
Then I would aslo enjoy having a toilet that come out of the ground for maximum privacy… Imagine !!
Then having a aquarium-sink in the bathroom would realy make the room more alive!! Just imagine how much moore time you would spend with your little fishes !!
And it would also be cool having these sword-umbrellas if its raining outside and you still feel like being way bad.
Oh, yeah… who wouldn't want to own a pet, So I want a pet-AT-AT from star wars, walking around in the apartment killing bugs with lasers or something!!
Well, thats It for now… have a nice sunny weekend people
Last week I have been working with kids as usual… all day long… as usual, getting exhausted as usual, and consuming way to much free chocolate drinks from the machine … as usual! So nothing new there I guess. Life goes on but with a purpose to serve and follow God and traveling To St: Vincent. I am sooooo looking forward to this, Its all in my head and my stomach!
So anyway Last Sunday I bought myself a nice pair of Jeans … women's-jeans! Yes the button actually opens on the right side (or should I say wrong). But other than that the model looks pretty unisexy =) I have never thought of this fenomena, why in the world do we symbolise the difference of the male and female sex by having the zipper-button in different positions. Isnt it enough with division that men drink beer and have skirts? I mean as far as I know I can tell whether someone is a Lady… withouth looking… you know ..there! ajajaj what a world hu?
This is probably the best dance performance ever. So raise the volume on your computer, see and enjoy
Yes, summer is back and kicking. Last week I have been outside a lot reading my book, in hailing a Cuban getting some brownish and smiling towards our closest star. When summer strikes Sweden its not only flowers that bloom, this also goes for people who all come out of their dark and nasty caves, rip of any overwhelming clothing, bye 20 pairs of shades and get updated on the newest ice-cream. At this time of year no one wants any more snow, winter or reign. Personally I hate reign and only wish it to fall at night time when I hit the sack.
I sure love the summer, but then again… I wont experience any winter in two years now… so lucky Bob!
Well Easter is all about What Jesus did, when he died and rose again.
Today its good Friday and "good meaning its something positive, something to celebrate. So happy "Jesus-died-to-save-us-day" people!
Oh yeah, all this Egg hysteria, bunnies, chickens, and obnoxiously yellow colours… in a nice christian way – up yours =)
Last week Conny and Kain got married and they had a great amazing wedding, so congratulation guys.
Crazy water slide
Moder little Red Riding Hood … rödluvan (Jeroen you would like this one)
Just had an amazing day at work where I was in the sun all day chillin with the kids. For Lunch we ate Kebab, and I was able to take home some leftovers. Or some… I mean a bucket, a bucket kebab people!! Its all in my fridge now waiting for me to consume it.
Also had a fabulous time of worship practise and this Easter Sunday is going to be amazing! For anyone not going to any church, give it a chance this Easter. I am not the religious-hallelujah-type as you all know, but what Jesus did on the cross has managed to touch me deep inside again for the first time in a long while now. So full of expectations New Life 11 am !!
Some week ago, Jeroen and I decided to roll up our sleeves and spend the evening wisely =)

What do you get the person who has everything they want for Christmas?
That is the question my mother faces each year as she hunts for Christmas presents for her kids.
Every year we tell her not to get us anything and we will still love her, but she insists on giving something.
So, in trying to help my mom think of gift ideas for my sister and her husband, my sister suggested that Mom make them new fleece jackets. Mom thought this was a great idea and I volunteered to add some finishing touches to them once they were done.
On my Mom's last visit to see my sister, they picked out the fleece, then Mom got busy sewing and then mailed me the jackets. That is when the fun began for me!
I wish I had been with Mom and my sister when they picked the color for sister's husband's jacket. It was decided long ago that Mickey Mouse would go on his jacket.
My plan was to put just a plain Mickey Mouse on the back of the jacket, but when I saw the color of the jacket and knowing that 60% of Mickey is black, I figured when I got done with the embroidering all you were going to see was a pink face, red pants and gold shoes.
I searched my designs for a Mickey with more color, but did not find one I liked. I have several designs of Mickey with Donald Duck or Pluto, but they would not work either. Finally, after explaining the problem to my husband, he came up with the idea of framing Mickey.
You would definatly be able to see a big yellow dot on the dark gray jacket.
So, I chose a classic Mickey instead of a current Mickey design so he would have a white face. I also really dig the front and back designs of Mickey especially with the surprised look on Mickey's face. With the aid of my husband's digitizing skills, the designs for the Mickey jacket were ready to stitch.
The Snoopy designs were far easier to pick. I knew I wanted the whole gang on the back. With the new Dakota designs, it was easy to pick just the right one. I also knew that I wanted just a plan basic Snoopy on the front so that was an easy pick too.
Next the stitching started. I had to hoop the jackets with a top stabilizer due to the fleece being so fuzzy, but my regular water soluble stabilizer is cut the for a 4 inch hoop, so I had to use a package of Ultra Solvy (extremely stable, as the package said) that I had picked up.
I have never worked with this heavy of a stabilizer, top or bottom before and this made hooping interesting.
By the time I had a bottom stabilizer, fleece jacket, and heavy top stabilizer, I could hardly get the hoop to snap together.
Once again though, with my husband's help, I got the jackets hooped and moved on. The stitching went pretty smoothly. I took my time because I wanted the jackets to turn out well. It was a lot of fun stitching the jackets, but they took a long, long time to stitch.
It was about 5 hours for the hooping and stitching front and back for both jackets. After the 3rd bobbin on the back Mickey design, I knew a lot of stitches had been sewn. I thought the heavy top stabilizer would give me grief while stitching, but it did a good job at stabilizing and I am glad that I used it. It held in there with all those needle punches.
The problem with the heavy top stabilizer came after the sewing at removal time. When I use my light web top stabilizer, I can pull most of it off and then use a small amount of water of dissolve the edges. Using this Ultra Solvy I cut as much of it away as I could, then soaked the jackets in cold water, rinsed them and sent them to the washing machine. I really did not want to wash my sister's Christmas present just in case anything happened in the washing and drying cycle, but I had little choice with the Ultra Solvy.
Luckily though they make it through just fine and polar fleece really does not shrink.
I am happy with the end result on both jackets. Mom did a great job with sewing them and I like the designs that I put on the jackets.
I shipped the jackets to my sister in a box marked "Don't open until Christmas". I am excited for my sister to see the end results, but I refrained from posting this until I was sure she had opened the package since I did not want to spoil any Christmas surprises.
She gets to open it early because they are going out of town to see the their latest grandson.
Yay! One more little nephew for me to sew for!
I am jealous though that my sister is getting the Snoopy jacket. I wanted it after it was finished and turned out so well! Oh well, maybe next year I will have Mom make a new fleece jacket for me!

Dale Jr. is out scouting the talent, closing deals, and he does it all with a firm handshake. Ask Amelia. In honoring of his last season a full time drive. I thought it was only fitting to pull together an outfit even boss man Dale himself would approve of.
Blazers and NASCAR razorbacks do not usually mix, that is what makes this outfit great. The idea is to have a casual business outfit that incorporates the 88. As fall will be here before we know it. I thought I would start doing some layering. When layering tend to reach for jackets or flannel button ups. We neglect the business blazer. (I showed up to a party with a blazer on. Some guy told me, "you can't party in a blazer." I proved him wrong). This is a great opportunity to use the blazer that you were forced to buy for a job interview or career fair. I own many blazers, as I use to work in a business casual and professional world. I don't anymore so why not put the blazer to use. If you are interested in continuing to add blazers, into your armoire, sales are the best way to add more blazers to you collection. Another way is second hand stores.
I love the NASCAR razor backs that just have the number on them. Keeping is simple turns it in to a basic layering piece. A style like this is my go to, when buying fan apparel. I don't like the ones with car and sponsor all over them. They are way to busy. The idea behind this outfit is classy while supporting Dale Jr.. Since with razorback is black, I went with a grey blazer otherwise there would be black overload
The jeans are kept dark to look more professional. These are Levi's skinny jeans. I went with black and gold heels. My go to with jewelry is my gold watch. A quick way to make any outfit look more professional is add a watch.
This is definitely an outfit Boss Man Dale would approve of.
Side Note: Even though I am sad to see Dale leave. I am pretty excited to see what Alex Bowman can do.
Disclaimer: I would not actually wear this to an interview. Even if it is with Boss Man Dale.
*If you get and interview with Dale, I would love to hear about it or style you for the interview.
** Dale, if you are reading this, and you need something to do with your free time next year, I would love to interview you, are your convenience, of course.
Cheers to Dale and the 88. You will be missed.

Each month we will be featuring our wine of the month and telling you why it is our choice. We'll tell you which dish from our seasonal menu we would pair it with. We will also share a little of our wine knowledge with you so you can make informed choices when dining with us. If you want someone else to choose we are always happy to make wine and food pairing suggestions and can design a whole menu with accompanying wines for you. Alternatively just ask for a copy of our extensive wine list, there is something to suit all tastes and palates.
So let's take a look as March's featured wine:
Little Beauty Pinot Noir 2015 Marlborough, New Zealand
This month's offer price is *£31.90 a bottle (plus VAT)
This wine comes from a little privately owned estate in Marlborough's Southern Valleys. They are blessed with a unique micro-climate, which ensures excellent ripening conditions. It also means the wines differ slightly from the mainstream which is why we like them.
The team at Little Beauty is headed by former Cloudy Bay winemaker Evelyn Fraser and they have established a well earned reputation for producing elegant, refined and sophisticated wines. The wine making is modern, but there is more than a nod towards tradition. In 'Little Beauty' the best of new and the best of the old unite together seamlessly.
Pinot Noir is scented with notes of plum, red summer fruits, raspberry, red cherry, vanilla bean and smoke, the mouthfeel is velvety and rich, with great balance.
We would pair Little Beauty Pinot Noir with lamb from our spring menu. Specifically roast rack of spring lamb with 'shepherd's pie' croquette, spring cabbage with nutmeg and cream, redcurrant and apple-mint jus.
*when purchased with lunch/dinner at the hall
For all enquiries, please call
Our office hours are Monday to Friday, 9am - 5pm

For instance, I could go down 4 pages with just a somewhat slight movement. The increase in speed is definitely not a uniform speed. Any ideas as to why it is doing this? At least, in Safari. I have already set my scrolling speed to the lowest possible setting (far left) but it is still super fast.

Knauf Insulation Announces Plans to Reopen Lanett Facility
Great day in Chambers County! On April 17, 2013, at the Chambers County Development Authority's Annual Existing Industry Luncheon, a big announcement took place. The CCDA along with local officials announced Knauf Insulation's intent to reopen the Lanett facility in 2013. CCDA Executive Director, Valerie Gray stated that the CCDA staff has been working hand in hand with the Knauf upper management since their plant closing in 2011 to assist with the possibility of the facility reopening again in the future. Thanks to a lot of hard work and dedication from many people, this has paid off. Plans are set for the Lanett facility to reopen as early as 2014 . More news to come soon regarding hiring and timeline! The CCDA wants to thank all of the wonderful companies within our county for being here and working hard to keep Chambers County growing. Without you, we would be out of a job! We truly believe the statement that says 65% of new jobs and growth comes from existing industry. It is so important to show you daily how much you mean to us. Special thanks to Kimberly Fuller and Tammy Johnson for doing an INCREDIBLE JOB on the Luncheon! There were over 130 in attendance. The CCDA is dedicated to working to bring jobs to Chambers County and is very excited about what potential the 2013 year holds for growth here.

Newsletter 116, Spring 2017 � Hampshire Mills Group
Visit to Headley Mill
Nigel Harris
This report of mine was published recently in SPAB
"Mill News" #149 in October 2016. Headley Mill is
not currently open to the public so my thanks go to
Richard Ellis for giving me a guided tour and to
Andy Fish, Chairman of HMG, for his help in setting
up the visit.
Built astride the River
Wey, Headley Mill near Bordon was a family-run
watermill on the site of a manorial mill site dating
back over 700 years. The mill and mill house, both
of stone, face SE and form an attractive continuous
range. The west end of the mill is considered to be
16th century and the centre is much
older. About 1800 part of the house was rebuilt and
the open water wheel covered in, major
reconstructions took place to the fabric of the
mill, and much of the milling machinery was
The stone floor, notice the stone
crane on the right
The water from the
mill pond powers a 12�ft (3.8m) diameter by 7�ft
(2.3m) wide breastshot waterwheel, dating to 1926.
The wheel drove four pairs of millstones, three
French burr and one Peak (two pairs at a time). The
spur gear train consists of an iron pit wheel which
is 9ft (2.74m) in diameter with oak teeth. This
drives an iron wallower which in turn drives the
upright shaft on which the iron 8�ft (2.6m) diameter
great spur wheel is mounted (photo below left).
The great spur engages the stone nuts which have
teeth of beech wood. Two gears driven by the crown
wheel drove auxiliary machines such as crushers,
rollers, and sack hoist.
The Armfield grain
cleaner (below centre) and 3 centrifugal
dressers (one, below right) were electrically
powered and added more recently.
The bin floor
Members of HMG have been
involved with and have carried out work at Headley
Mill over a number of years. In 1996 they replaced
a main beam of the mill (photo below, by Ruth
Andrews) and in 2006 they replaced the buckets
in the waterwheel.
John Brandrick visited
Headley Mill in 2012 and has produced a number of 3D
drawings to record the structure and machinery of
the mill (an example is on the right). These can be
viewed at his website
Headley Mill was
working commercially until fairly recently, and all
the machinery and belt drives are still in position.

What is a stomach ulcer?
Stomach ulcers, which may be known as peptic ulcers, are painful open sores in the lining of the stomach. Gastric ulcers develop on the inner lining of your stomach while duodenal ulcers develop on the inside of the upper part of your small intestine. They occur when the thick layer of mucus which protects your stomach from digestive enzymes is reduced as this enables the digestive acids to destroy the tissues lining your stomach.
What causes a stomach ulcer?
Stomach ulcers cannot be attributed to a single cause. However, certain factors decrease the mucus lining of your stomach which leads to an ulcer. The most common ones are
- An infection by Helicobacter pylori bacteria (H. pylori)
- Long-term usage of certain painkillers. Taking aspirin, ibuprofen and other nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) may irritate and cause inflammation in the lining of your stomach and small intestine
- Too much acid in your stomach, which may be hereditary as seen in Zollinger-Ellison syndrome, caused by lifestyle habits (e.g. stress, smoking) or consuming certain foods.
What puts you at risk of developing a stomach ulcer?
Certain factors may increase your risk of stomach ulcers, such as
- Age, especially in those 50 years old and above
- Having a family history of stomach ulcers
- Smoking or tobacco
- Drinking excessive alcohol
- Frequent use of steroids
How do I know if I have a stomach ulcer?
Around three in four people with stomach ulcers do not have symptoms. However, if you do experience symptoms, common ones of a stomach ulcer include:
- Burning stomach pain, which may worsen between meals or at night
- Heartburn
- Feeling of fullness or bloatedness
- Intolerance of acidic foods
- Nausea or vomiting
In more severe cases, symptoms include:
- Dark blood in stools
- Vomiting blood which may look red or black
- A sudden and acute pain in your stomach that gets worse gradually
- Feeling unwell
- Unexplained weight loss
How are stomach ulcers diagnosed?
During a consultation session, your doctor will first take a medical history and carry out a physical examination. You will likely be scheduled for diagnostic imaging tests such as
Urea breath test- This is done to check if you have a H. pylori infection.
Gastroscopy- A small, lighted tube called an endoscope is passed down your throat and into your stomach to check for abnormalities. This is carried out especially if you have severe, recurring symptoms of ulcers.
Barium swallow- You will swallow a white liquid containing barium during the X-ray. This creates clearer images during the series of your X-rays of your upper digestive system.
Why surgery to cure a stomach ulcer?
Surgery for stomach ulcers are usually done as an emergency. If an ulcer continues to grow until it creates a hole in your stomach or intestinal wall, it is called a perforated ulcer. Surgery is the main mode of treatment for a perforated ulcer, where your surgeon sews up the hole. Early management of the ulcer is needed to avoid severe problems which may occur without proper management

Graceful in style and graceful in presence, this stunning Kiki McDonough collection of colourful precious gemstones and fine 18ct gold finishes, is a wonderful way to celebrate the Maison's 30 years of global success. What makes Kiki McDonough jewellery so popular? The answer lies within collections such as their Grace line – a unique assortment of memorable designs that use vibrant and daring colour combinations in gemstones, diamonds and metal sets, to capture the pure essence of quintessential British jewellery craftsmanship.
Kiki McDonough Grace jewellery is distinct for its instantly recognisable round cut gemstones, not to mention the timeless heart motif which is seen in designs like the white topaz heart pendant and matching studs from our online collection. Each gemstone chosen for the design, whether that be the likes of the vibrant peridot, the green amethyst or the magnificent blue topaz stone, has been completed with a border of glistening brilliant cut diamond, chosen to lock in the vibrancy of each gemstone, providing instant maximum colour and sparkle to the lady's outfit.
As with all Kiki McDonough jewellery creations, our selection of Grace earrings and Grace pendants take inspirational cues from places and people that Kiki draws motivation from, or finds a passion in. Her visions come together in the form of playful mixes of colour from precious gemstones carefully selected from ethical sources all over the world. Once chosen, the stones are incorporated into white good or yellow gold settings and complimented with a generous helping of glistening diamonds.
The Kiki McDonough 18ct white gold white topaz heart studs are a subtle way to add a hint of glamour to your everyday look. The glassy transparent tones of the white topaz create the illusion of a large diamond centre stone. The added diamonds around the edge, help to enhance the perfect round cut of the gemstones and the magnificent lustre of the surrounding 18ct white gold metal. For something a little more adventurous, we offer the Kiki McDonough purple amethyst and diamond stud earrings, which we think make for a great Valentine's Day gift idea. Not only are the deep rich purple tones of the amethyst a warm and romantic colour for Valentine's Day, but the gemstone itself is also the birthstone for February. The pair of Kiki studs are thus a great way to combine a memorable romantic gift with a thoughtful sentimental gesture.
The Kiki McDonough Grace collection is also home to the detachable drop design – an innovative and exciting new way to add variation to your wardrobe with a clever idea from Kiki McDonough. The detachable drop earrings can be purchased separately, and attached to an existing pair of Kiki McDonough Grace studs to create a striking double drop earring design. This concept allows you to enjoy expressing different ways to wear all the colours of the Kiki rainbow, whilst also keeping your wardrobe fresh with ideas for each day of the week. For more inspiration, our sales team are always on hand to advise on the pricing and availability of Kiki McDonough Grace jewellery, as well as availability and pricing.

Ok, so I am freaking out over this romper! In love! Why? Because it's one piece that you pull up and you are done. It's comfy, it comes in cool colors, it's not too expensive, and you can dress it down or up depending on what you need.
Love the teal but that's a solid statement, so I'd probably go black.

Yoga Poses for Lower Back and Arthritis Pain
One key factor in preventing strain in the lumbar spine is to maintain its natural degree of curvature. Too much or too little with excessive lordosis or flat lower back can be a precondition for arthritis and poor movement patterns resulting in pain. Normal curvature is maintained by balancing the two actions of moving the top of the thighs back, which arches the lower spine, and then pulling the tailbone down.
General tips for yoga include the following when dealing with arthritis and lower back discomfort:
• In forward folding, remember to bend at the hips not at the waist. Bring the top of your sacrum forward. Tightness in the hamstrings may make this challenging, but soften the knees.
• During twisting movements, stabilize the pelvis by keeping the navel facing forward, lengthen the spine on the inhalation, and twist easily (not overdoing).
• Yoga uses back-bending postures frequently. Remember to stabilize the tailbone and lift the middle and upper back away from the pelvis. This prevents movement from occurring only in the lumbar spine. As you coordinate the parts of the spine, you can distribute the stress of the movement.
• As you strengthen the abdominal muscles, your lower back support is enhanced.
• With all your yoga practice, be careful to do all types of movement. Bend forward, bend backward, bend to each side, and twist.
If you cannot do all the poses in the practice, bear in mind that it is best to do at least some of each type to improve pelvic coordination, a combination of iliopsoas control, ability to widen the thighs, flexion, and extension.
The practice:
1. Modified Jathara Parivartanasana - Supine position – Windshield wiper knees moving to the right and left ankles
2. Marjaryasana/Bitilasana - Cat/Cow (adding in a "C" Curve with the body)
3. Balasana - Side Child's Pose – a combination of Child's Pose and Thread the Needle
4. Phalakasana - Plank (modified on the knees or full plank)
5. Bhujangasana - Cobra pose (being very mindful about arching the spine very gently)
6. Salambhasana - Locust pose (airplane arms out to the side)
7. Adho Mukha Svanasana - Downward Dog against the Wall – hands parallel to the floor while pressing into the wall
8. Adho Mukha Svanasana - Reverse around with Downward Dog – heels against the baseboard
9. Anjaneyasana - Standing Lunge against the wall with toe towards the wall and fingertips pressing into the wall
10. Utthita Trikonasana - Extended Triangle against the wall
11. Utthita Parsvakonasana - Extended Side Angle against the wall
12. Clock Stretch – Pectoralis/Shoulder Stretch against the wall with arm outstretched at 12:00, 1:00, 2:00, and 3:00 and back to 12:00. You decide how close to the wall you stand; the closer you come, the more intense the stretch.
13. Supta Padangusthasana - Supine position with feet against the wall – raise one leg with strap and other foot pressing into the wall
14. Using a chair:
a. Uttanasana - Forward fold with hands on outer shins
b. Bharadvajasana - Chair twist – sitting on the side of the chair use the back of the chair to elongate on the inhale and twist on the exhale.
c. Malasana or Garland Pose seated in the chair, widening out your knees, and on the exhale as you reach your chest forward and unroll your spine as you fold forward bringing your hands to blocks or the floor.
d. Ustrasana - Camel Pose with the chair as you kneel in front of the chair, facing away from it, and feet under the chair seat. Inhale as you lengthen and exhale and bring your hands to the sides of the chair.
e. Parighasana - Gate Pose with one leg under the chair and foot flexed. Your bent knee is the opposite leg and you inhale as you lengthen up with the outside arm and your inner arm rests on the chair seat. Then you stretch over the chair with your exhale.
f. Kapotasana - Pigeon Pose with a bolster or blanket underneath front of pelvis as your front knee is bent and back leg extended on the mat. Fold over the chair seat as it faces you. Keep the bent knee hip lifted and stretch into the straight extended leg hip flexor region.
15. Balasana - Child's Pose with bolster and blankets
16. Setu Bandha Sarvangasana - Bridge Pose with soft block underneath sacrum
17. Supta Padangusthasana - Supine Hand to Foot Pose with strap – keep other knee bent or leg extended depending on hip flexibility
18. Pavanamuktasana – Wind Relieving Pose as you bring one knee into your chest on the exhale and either extending the opposite leg on the floor or keeping it bent with foot on the floor.
19. Viparita Karani - Legs Up the Wall using blankets and a strap around the thighs to relax and come into Corpse Pose
20. Savasana for 5 minutes – Inhaling relaxation, exhaling tension as you make sure your lower back is comfortable using whatever props are necessary.
21. Namaste'
Information was gathered from Yoga for Arthritis by Dr. Loren Fishman and Ellen Saltonstall and personal experience.

Welcome to Summer in Spencertown
For the 8th year in a row, our little burg of Spencertown, NY is holding its annual welcome to summer event in front of the church on the green in Spencertown. Originally a fundraiser for the historic clapboard church, a relic of days gone by but still a specimen in the history of Columbia County, the event is evolving into a lively and welcoming community day celebrating summer with music, food, plants and handmade as well as vintage wares for sale.
Faith and Wisdom collection as well as an abundance of coffee cups and specially priced platers, soap dishes and other pieces I seem to have a lot of in the studio. Special pricing for the fair.
Frances Culley designed the poster this year and I love her antiquarian aesthetic. Contrasts with my tendency toward a modern look. Diversity rules! If you are in the neighborhood or looking for a fun outing, should be worth the drive. Weather forecast is sunny, though might be little cool. Pack a sweater.
Hope to see you this weekend!
