Snow Blooms Charming Thursday
86 comments:
I like to decorate the Sat. after Thanksgiving and take down the decorations News Years Day. Have a very Merry Christmas! LReplyDelete
I usually say I am going to decorate the weekend after Thanksgiving but it always ends up to be around 2 weeks later. I love Christmas decorating and do not take down until the 3rd or 4th week of January. Two years ago I had surgery on January 7th so my decorations stayed up until almost Valentines Day! I actually loved it.ReplyDelete
So neat for you to give your Mom a Christmas In July present.
I decorate the weekend after Thanksgiving and take it all down the week after Christmas; for sure by the New Year. I like the Christmas in July gift; maybe the start of a new tradition. Thanks for the chance at your giveaway.ReplyDelete
I start decorating the day after Thanksgiving! I usually start putting up decorations the first few days of January, but I am never happy the holidays are over!ReplyDelete

I wait until right after Thanksgiving; and depending on the craziness, take down the decorations just after New Years. One year the tree did stay up to celebrate my daughter's birthday on the 13th of January....Lately I seem to be decorating a little simpler....JanetReplyDelete
We normally put our Christmas tree up the day after Thanksgiving. I want to enjoy it for as long as I can! Thanks for the giveaway! :0)ReplyDelete
I am so boring really I put mine up a few days before and take them down 7 days after. It's all different now I live in France and am away from family, so yes mine has changed we don't have children come to visit to I don't decorate as much as I use to. LindaReplyDelete
I usually start the first week of December. Everyday after school I get out a new tub and empty it. The tree comes down a few days after Christmas, just so I can put the house back while we are still on break. I keep my winter items;snowmen and other smaller trees out through February. Oh, have I changed my theme in the 23 years I've been married. I used to do pink Victorian ornaments and now I can't get enough primitive items - orange slices, pinecones that type of decoration. I can't believe I ever spent hours cross stitching those horrid victorian pink ornaments. (but I still have them - after the hours spent, I just can't get rid of them!) ~AnnReplyDelete
We usually decorate during Thanksgiving weekend and leave it up until New Year's because that's when there are more people around to help. When I was growing up, the tree went up about Dec. 15, and came down the day after Christmas. Thanks for the giveaway!ReplyDelete
I always start the day after Thanksgiving and it stays up till I remember to take it down, lol. I keep snowman items up longer. I have hidden gifts and forgotten them, that is what happens when you find good hiding spots.ReplyDelete
Love the colors in snow blooms.
I start decorating the Saturday after Thanksgiving and keep it up until after New Year's Day. Christmas is my favorite holiday so I do more decorating then than for other holidays. Even though the children are now grown, they all come for Christmas and expect it to be decorated the same. I have opted for an artificial tree however.ReplyDelete
I start planning in January, I know it sounds very early, but I always buy new Xmas decorations at the after Xmas sales, so if i get a new beautiful decoration that was a really great bargin, it will take pride of place.ReplyDelete
Then I have to finish all the new Xmas UFO's I was sure I'd finish before Xmas (but I never do & every year there's always so many new patterns for Christmas stuff I just can't help my self)These will also take pride of place. So when I pack up the decorations (mid-January)I'm ready for December
I start to decorate in the 1st week of December & I absolutely love it. You would think my children are still young (they're 18 & 20)I have to have the fairy lights,candy canes, vintage glass tree decorations, my color choice varies every year.And I collect all types & sizes of Xmas trees & always make new Xmas stockings every year for the mantle (I still hang the old ones just in different places around the house.
Living in Florida it's sometimes hard to get into the Christmas decorating spirit until the second week of December. And usually the decorations come down soon after the New Year. The only change in our decorating in the last year has been to add a new tree (in addition to our old faithful) in the living room of our new house. It's tall and slim, and our family room tree is plump and holds all the old ornaments we have collected over the years :-)ReplyDelete
Every year I seem to be putting up less decorations - except for quilts of course. Put those out early December until first week in January. Thanks for the 'cooling' thoughts of Christmas.ReplyDelete
We usually start decorating around Dec 1st and take it all down the first week in January. Love putting it all out and getting into the Christmas spirit but hate to pack it all away. Each year I say that I won't put so much out, but each year I add more. My favorites are the Christmas quilts. Merry ChristmasReplyDelete

Thr new fabric line looks and sounds terrific. I would so enjoy winning your give-a-way. I really like the trip around the world quilt...I could use a vacation. ;)ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJuly 21, 2011 at 8:54 AM
I decorate after Thanksgiving but am quick to take it all down the day right after Christmas with exception of the snowman stuff. I keep that theme going through February. I found year after year that I have favorites that have to come out and it seems more and more is staying tucked back into the box and not so favorite anymore. Perhaps my taste are changing.ReplyDelete
I like to get Christmas going around the lst of December. Then after I'm so over it and definitely down by January 1st. I'm adding more quilty stuff most years and have recycled a lot of really old stuff as well. The fabric is really cute.ReplyDelete
- RebeccaJuly 21, 2011 at 9:00 AM
Oh, I didn't comment on the question of the day. Well, My tree has stayed up for a number of years so far. I decorate with the things I really like so if it is a holiday thing or not I don't care.ReplyDelete
I'm not big on Christmas decorations. I put up my creche at the beginning of December. The tree doesn't come up from the basement until the weekend before Christmas and comes down a few days after. Kathie L in AllentownReplyDelete
My Christmas starts going up the day after Thanksgiving and continues for about a week until it is all done. I take it down over about a week's time starting the day after New Years Day.ReplyDelete
Since the kids are grown I decorate with less cutesy stuff, but I think I decorate even more. I have almost 2 dozen of those alpine-type trees that are clustered around the home and lit in mini-lights, along with a growing collection of nativity scenes. I put lighted garlands wherever I can and quality hand-crafted items in every nook and cranny. I love the feel!
Have to admit that since my children are grown and gone from home, I don't decorate. We celebrate the holiday at the son's house, so I just don't do it. That might change now that we have a new granddaughter, but I have a hard time getting in the mood for Christmas...ReplyDelete
My daughter's birthday is Dec 11 so we usually start putting up Christmas after that, and take it down around Jan 1. My tastes have changed from bright colors for Christmas ornaments to drab prim colors instead - much better!ReplyDelete
I love to decorate my house with the seasons. I usually start my Christmas decorating the day after Thanksgiving. However, my tree doesn't go up until the week before Christmas. It is always decorated the same: lights, red bulbs and my crystal ornament collection. And if I have the day off, everything comes down on Dec 26th!ReplyDelete
Ah, Snow! Does sound wonderful. I decorate the middle of December and if lucky it doesn't come down until March. I love CHristmas. My tastes have changed in that I use more of the family vintage decorations than before. Connection to family I guess. Thanks for the giveaway.ReplyDelete
I try to start decorating the weekend after Thanksgiving. I leave the trees up through the first week in January. The other decorations get put away sometime the week after Christmas....except the snowmen. They stay until Valentine's Day. I need snowmen to remind me it is winter since the winter weather is pretty mild where I live!ReplyDelete

I like to put the tree up either Thanksgiving weekend or the next week. I want to enjoy it the whole month of December. I like to take it down before New Years. I made a quilt using your pattern Candle in the Window using the Snow Blooms collection and it turned out great. The brick-red print was my favorite. Thanks for the giveaway. LanaReplyDelete

We love Christmas, so we begin the first of November throughout house except the dining area where Thanksgiving decorations will be displayed. After Thanksgiving, the dining and kitchen areas resemble Mrs. Claus' kitchen with cross stitched and embellished stand-ups, lots of framed cross stitched pieces, Christmas china, etc. All of my DH's hunting trophies are decorated with ornaments, tinsel, and bows. I am currently working on my first Christmas quilt for the master bedroom. The 3 labbies' tails can be dangerous, so we are careful placing things. Such fun... Christmas houses, special handmade ornaments on the tree, etc.ReplyDelete
I start decorating around Thanksgiving and try to have everything put away around New Years - of course I leave up my snowmen. My decorating over the years has become simpler and I've learned to only put up what I really love. Thanks for the opportunity to win some charms...DeniseReplyDelete

I start Christmas music the day after Halloween. I have hundreds of CDs that I've collected thru the years...but I love Johnny Mathis the best! Then we decorate the house the weekend after Thanksgiving and leave it up till mid-January. My theme for the past 5-6 yrs is snowmen and always the homespun/ handmade look, whatever the theme. Stay cool, S WarrenReplyDelete
I never decorate for Christmas at or near Thanksgiving. I prefer to keep the warm, cozy colors of autumn around me for as long as possible! Then, when the Christmas mood strikes me, I bring out the tree. A few years ago I switched from a large, glitzy, shiny tree to a pencil tree with woodsy ornaments and crocheted snowflakes.ReplyDelete
Once the kid's left the roost, I only put out a few special items the first week of December, no tree but some colored lights in champagne bottles look so pretty, and I put everything away before New Year strikes! Oooh. I just realized how Grinchy I sound! I love the season, but not the work of pulling all that stuff out of storage! I do play lots of holiday music though! LOLReplyDelete
Always the Sunday before Christmas. With my birthday on Christmas Day I don't want to feel older too soon!ReplyDelete

Now that is my kind of pattern! Simple and it lets the fabric do the talking! Love it! Thanks Lynn for the chance to win some of your wonderful fabric!ReplyDelete
I was say Happy Quilting... but it is so hot here in Ohio and from the looks of things the same where you are... so I will just say Stay Cool! Onalee NE Ohio

I start decorating in December, a little at a time. Doing less as the years go by and try to keep it simple but special. Tree goes up about a week before Christmas. Love the fabrics!ReplyDelete
i do a little at a time and how much depends on if we are traveling for the holiday or we are hosting! I love changing themes but always keep some of the same family traditionals out! thanks for the beautiful giveaway.ReplyDelete
I do a bit at a time, starting right after Thanksgiving. It all comes down after New Years, except for a few snowmen and things. The quilts stay out longer too. ;-)ReplyDelete
It seems like once December comes it feels like it's time to start decorating. Taking down Christmas decorations is never as fun as putting them up! Some of my favorite decorations stay up all year as I don't have the heart to take them down.ReplyDelete
We decorate for Christmas right after US thanksgiving. (We live in Canada where thanksgiving is celebrated the second Monday of October but my husband is from the US so we celebrate in November as well). I take the decorations down right after New Year's Day.ReplyDelete
I ALWAYS wait until after Thanksgiving to decorate for Christmas~ one holiday at a time please! LOL Ususally take it down around New Yr's.ReplyDelete
This past yr. I was able to put out all of my gingerbread I've collected over the yrs., so that was different than in past yrs.
Thanks for the give~away!
I don't have a Xmas decorating routine yet. Last year, we had just moved to a new state, started new jobs, and we too tired and frazzled to decorate. This year I can't wait to do it! I still have my Xmas wreath from last year hanging up. I'm so bad!ReplyDelete
Some time around the first of December works good for me.ReplyDelete
- AnonymousJuly 21, 2011 at 2:58 PM
I'm eager before Christmas,but do wait until Dec first!There's just "something" about Christmas that is so special,I think it's Christ! Thanks so for sharing!ReplyDelete
Since I am such a Fall/Autumn Harvest junkie, I leave Fall decor up as long as possible! But hubby makes me take it down and we put the tree up usually after Thanksgiving Day. Hum...CHRISTmas decorating has changed...last CHRISTmas was our first without our oldest son Ethan who passed away last summer. We decorated for the sake of our youngest son, but I think this year will be much happier, and I will enjoy decorating!ReplyDelete
I start decorating the day after Thanksgiving and take down on New Year's day. My question is: If you put up a nativity, when do you put Baby Jesus in? Just a thought. Thanks for the chance to win. HUGS... and stitchesReplyDelete
I always have big ideas of decorating early, but usually don't get around to it until a couple of weeks before Christmas. I take down the tree and most decorations on New Year's Day while I watch the parades on TV and leave the snowman stuff up till I get tired of it.ReplyDelete
Love the trip around the world.
I just love your Snow Blooms charm pack - the colors are lovely!ReplyDelete
We usually start decorating the first weekend of December and leave them up until early January. Our decorations have been simplified since our boys are grown. We don't have grandkids, YET. If and when we do, we definitely will decorate more. I love the name of this line, Snow Flowers. Thanks!ReplyDelete

We decorate on Dec. 21 (to separate a daughter's Dec. 20 birthday from the festivities of Christmas) and take decorations down usually Dec. 28th.ReplyDelete
The quilt is really fabulous.

Start decorating the weekend after Thanksgiving and take it down New Year's Day. Leave up my snowmen, and smaller trees thru February cause they make me happy. My decorating has defintely change over the years. I am now folk artsy and primitive. I put up a tree of Williraye ornaments I have collected over the years and that has become my favorite.ReplyDelete
Thank you for the Snow Blooms giveaway. I start decorating the weekend after Thanksgiving; take my tree down after New Years Day, and the snowman things stay up til Valentine's Day. This year I am in hopes of adding a bird and pinecone themed tree on my glassed in porch.ReplyDelete
Both my husband and I enjoy all the Christmas decorations so our decorations usually go up Thanksgiving Day or the day after or if I will let him, my husband will start earlier. They usually stay up until about the end of January. We like to add something to our collection of tree ornaments and my collection of snowmen every year. Changes? We probably do not keep the Christmas lights lit as long as we used to because of the rising cost of electricity. Thanks for another Charming Thursday.ReplyDelete
I start decorating the day after Thanksgiving and put everything away the morning after Christmas Day. I love Christmas decorations and so enjoy having the house decked-out. Yet, I tend to start missing my "regular" things by Christmas Day.ReplyDelete
There was a time when nothing less than a live tree suited me. I now do the artificial tree and get the Christmas smells from baking and candles.
Love the Charming Thursday. Thanks ever so much!
We usually decorate the first week of December and take everything down on New Year's Day. The decorations stay basically the same because they are reminders of all the people who have made and given us decorations over the years. - LynnReplyDelete
I had to laugh at you finding a Christmas gift hidden away. I thought I was the only one who did that and now it's expected here!ReplyDelete
I like to decorate around the second week of December and take them down New Year's day. Even though I love the decorations, by then I'm feeling like I want to get back to normal. Once they're put away I always find one I forgot about so it may end up staying for quite a while.
Thanks for giving all these charm packs away - they're great.
Beautiful fabric and quilt, as always!ReplyDelete
We decorate for Christmas after Thanksgiving-- the sooner the better, usually, though last year we took our time. I try to take them down soon after New Year's Day (though that also can be left longer than planned). For a year or two, I put up and decorated two trees, but these days, I think it's just way too much work. One is more than enough for a reasonable amount of Christmas spirit. ;o) Our number of decorations sometimes increase from year to year, though, as we get new items/ornaments from family-- or make or buy some for ourselves. The more the merrier-- to a point!

Silly me I answered your question in an e-mail instead of here.ReplyDelete
We start putting up our Christmas decorations the day/weekend after Thanksgiving. We put up 5 trees ranging in size from 4 foot to 9 foot. Can you tell my husband loves Christmas???? Oh and then there are the Christmas Houses... they go up above my kitchen cabinets. We had plugs put up there for just so we could light them up!
Happy Quilting!

I use to start on the 10th of december...that was when the kids were little. The less time for them to be super hyper...two weeks is long enough to wait for Christmas. :) But now that they are all gone and I am older? I try to start right after THanksgiving...it seems to take me longer to decorate..I needs lots of breaks in between :) I am a tad more elegant in my choices of color and theme...back then it was whatever and everything I had that was unbreakable ha!ReplyDelete

I live in Canada and we celebrate Remembrance Day Nov 11th every year to honour the end of WWI. Christmas decorating would start after that date. And my decorations, especially my tree stays up until old Christmas - Jan 6th.ReplyDelete

I usually start right after Thanksgiving and I leave several things out until Valentine's Day. I have one santa that stays out year round. Thanks for the great giveaway. Bev EReplyDelete
I am still missing a present I bought 2 years ago. I know it is in one of the closets, maybe this will be the year I find it. I was not one to decorate until I started quilting. I just finished a Christmas quilt and getting ready to start on a few more wall hangings.ReplyDelete
Snow Blooms look fabulous and the mini trip shows them off wonderfully.ReplyDelete
I usually start decorating the day after Thanksgiving - I firmly believe in honoring that day - and start packing them away at the start of Epiphany. My style hasn't changed much, but despite some that were lost to an overly aggressive dog (another story for another day), I have many of the early ones and have added more primitive elements over the years. Thank you again for your generosity.
I start decorating for Christmas on the weekend of Thanksgiving and usually keep the Christmas theme until New Years. That is when I switch everything to the snowmen theme - which usually stays until spring. Looking forward to winning. :)ReplyDelete
My decorating changed after the kids left home; when they weren't here it became a chore and I didn't want to have it out long enough that it needed dusting. So it went from the day after Thanksgiving to two weeks before Christmas, and the big tree became a table top size one pre-lit and decorated. Now we have grand kids so the big tree comes out but it gets taken down before New Years.ReplyDelete
Our decorating has deminished since the kids have grown but we still enjoy our favorites.ReplyDelete
We enjoy the family time more and the work less!
Getting old I guess.
I usually decorate the weekend after Thanksgiving and take everything down a couple of days after New Year's Day. I have changed some things over the years, but my children's special ornaments are always a key part of my decor.ReplyDelete
Usually the first weekend of December. Take down is usually the 2nd week of January. Until I got married and had to travel for the holidays I loved decorating. Now it's just one more chore.ReplyDelete
I must say it is just refreshing to look at the picture (on the sidebar)of your cabin in the snow. It's so darn hot and humid in the South (and everywhere) right now.ReplyDelete
We don't put up our tree until my birthday on Dec. 10th (sort of my birthday celebration/present). We usually take it down on epiphany, Jan. 6th which is also the 12 day of Christmas. (Give or take a day or two - I mean by then we are all exhausted).
Love the fabric and they look beautiful in the quilt. I bet your Mom loved the sconces - who doesn't love a gift no matter when it is given, especially from family!
We like to begin decorating a few weeks before Christmas and take it down the first week in January. For Christmas I gave my mother an "iou a clothes shopping trip." We just took it last week for her Christmas in July. It is so hot here in Florida that charming snow blooms would be welcome. Thanks for the chance.ReplyDelete
I start the week of Thanksgiving and leave it up til after New Year's.. longer if my family would let me. Merry Christmas!ReplyDelete
I put my many, many Santa's out right after Thanksgiving and leave them out till mid January and then I get my snowmen out.ReplyDelete
I'd like the Christmas decorations to last a least a month so I start early. These decorations have changed and simplified over the years as the children grew up and left home. We keep it simple and centered on Christ.ReplyDelete
I usually start decorating the first weekend in December, when we cut down our tree. I have to take things down around the first weekend in January, when the tree starts dropping needles - usually because I forget to keep watering it with presents piled all around, LOL!!ReplyDelete
we usually travel to TX for Thanksgiving (the Sander's Family Reunion occurs over that 4 day weekend)so we don't start decorating until we get back (which is usually the 1st weekend in December). Everything stays up through New Years Eve and we start taking things down on the 1st. Thanks for a chance to win - laurieReplyDelete
It use to be the day after Thanksgiving through New Year's Day. I guess it's still somewhat the same timeline, just a lot less decorations. All the family is gone, we go instead of have company so I don't do so much anymore. Outside lights, yes, inside, pretty plain...not even a tree. DH is not big on decorations, so I make it easy on myself....ReplyDelete
Each year we decorate with less. We usually decorate 2 weeks before Christmas and only until New Years Day. I might add a few new things each year with some of my all time old favorites. I love the Snow Blooms groups. I used that jelly roll to make your star wall hanging. It hangs all year long in my living/family room. The colors are perfect.ReplyDelete
I love all my pumpkins and fall decorations so I'm always a little reluctant to take them down and put out Christmas ... but I do! Usually the first week of December and then tidy the place up the first week of January. The snowmen come out and jolly the place up for January and February.ReplyDelete

I forgot to mention about our 'brown bag Christmas'. I, like you, hide gifts all over the place and without fail, forget something when it's time to wrap! So, a week or two after Christmas might pass before I discover these lost treasures and so they go into a brown bag and are presented to the intended recipient with a sheepish grin - they have become one of our traditions!ReplyDelete
I start decorating for Christmas the 2nd week of November. I LOVE Christmas and keep up my decorations pretty much to the end of February...some snowmen stay up year round :) My decorating style has always been country Christmas and I have a special collection of snowmen and snowflakes that I save until last to put up as they seem to put the finishing touch on it all.ReplyDelete
The day after Thanksgiving I put wreaths and greenery outside. Dec 1st I start putting Christmas quilts on my end tables and dining room table. Several are KT ones. After the quilts are out, I start putting my Jim Shore Santa's and other Santa's out. Single lights go in each window. Some years I just put out primitive trees and other years I do a larger tree with some primitive ones.ReplyDelete

I like to start decorating after Thanksgiving and leave the decorations up until after New Years's Day. I did change my tree and decorations a few years ago but my husband still would prefer all the handmade ornaments. I do like the July celebration. I really need to slow down and concentrate on the real meaning of Christmas!ReplyDelete
I start decorating in early november and take things down toward the end of January. I love decorating and am always a little sad to see the holiday seaon end. I will be starting on my Christmas quilts around the 1st of august. I can't wait for the flannels to start a "cozy" or two.ReplyDelete
- reedquilterJuly 24, 2011 at 8:36 PM
We usually travel to our daughters house for Thanksgiving, so I start the week of Thanksgiving getting all the decorations out, and it feels like I'm opening Xmas packages, when unwrapping those decorations. I'm caught saying oh, I love this.ReplyDelete
Beautiful colors as always! Too funny about the gift for your mom--I haven't done that but once put aside some Christmas photo cards for special folks to write an extra note in and forgot them. My Grandma complained about not getting one; I was so sure I had addressed one to her. I found them months later and crossed off "Merry Christmas", wrote in Happy Flag Day (cuz I was early for that) and mailed them off. They were a hit!ReplyDelete
I put out a wooden, mantle-length advent box for December 1st, but otherwise no specific date for putting the rest of the decorations. New Year's Day is when everything comes down.
We're supposed to take them down?! With one child born the weekend after Thanksgiving and another born 3 days before Christmas, decorating for the holidays was a challenge. During July there was always a half-year birthday party for those 2. Now they are grown and in their own homes, so I can start decorating when I like, usually early in November. (Old habits are hard to break.) I still have one at home, grown as well, but still in college. He's always loved having the decorations up early too. I start looking for items to hide away starting in July and those handmade items need an early start as well. When December comes, the tradition has been to decorate one thing a day--could be baking cookies, putting up the lights outside, or wrapping some of those hidden gifts if I can find them, etc. I too have the occasional surprise goodie discovered in January or later. Some decorations come down mid-January, mostly the outdoor things, and after any company has gone, but rarely before Jan 6. Often I find I'm putting things away much like they went up, slowly and over time. Now before you think "how organized", I must assure you that there is always that Christmas Eve rush to finish more than one last thing. LOL. Thanks for an opportunity to share my traditions and the give-away of some Kansas Troubles.ReplyDelete
I start decorating during November, especially if I don't have to cook Thanksgiving turkey!!!ReplyDelete
But I start buying presents in January - already have several tucked away for this year.
And baby Jesus - I put him in when I put the mangers out; except one year he got lost--the grandkids had hid him in a bookcase!!!

Host: Solanum tuberosum L. (potato) Disease name: Late blightPathogen name: Phytophthora infestans (Mont.) de Bary
In the central highlands of Mexico, infection by P. infestans is common every summer in rainfed potato crops. Stem infection is normal. The general consensus among many scientists is that P. infestans originated in central Mexico. The two mating types, A1 and A2, are present there in a 1:1 ratio, which ensures sexually derived progenies and wide genetic diversity. In addition, many wild Solanum species of the area have resistance genes to the pathogen.

Filed under: Planning
Lesson planning for the two programming activities, Scratch and Etoys, has begun!
Scratch is a more basic program while Etoys is for advanced users. We agreed that since scratch was a simpler program, we would spend less time teaching the kids how to actually press the buttons and more time how to actually utilize Scratch in a more purposeful way. It's not too difficult to launch the Scratch activity and put random blocks together to create a random animal moving is random directions. What is more challenging is to use Scratch to create a story with a setting, a plot, and different characters that interact with one another.
After some research we came across a great online resource to help us:
This site already had detailed lesson plans on how Scatch can be used by kids.
One plan that we all found particularly interesting was to use Scratch to tell a fable. This would allow the kids to use an activity on the XO laptop to tell a story while learning about story structure and a creative way to convey a moral. We could also tie in current Rwandan issues with the story.
There are still many possibilities and we are currently researching them and narrowing down our options.
Check out some fables made from scratch here:

For Bicyclists: What To Say When Drivers Yell At You
Comic by Rosscott
So you're cycling along and a driver zips by, chewing you out for some terrible deed you've committed just for being on the road on two wheels instead of four. What do you say or do that gets a dig in at the driver without drawing you into an argument or potentially bad situation? A comic by Rosscott has the answers. Click through to check them out. Rosscott, a graphic designer (and self-proclaimed lover AND fighter) came up with a shortlist of solutions. My favorite is getting a song stuck in their head. If you want to be pure evil, launch into a loud version of Rebecca Black's "Friday" -- especially if it's not Friday.
See the large version of the comic here. You can also buy a poster of this comic for $10 at Rosscott's web store. Who knows, maybe hanging it up around bike repair shops or cafes could do some good.

A structurally Kush hybrid of a cross between a female `Blueberry Sativa` (from the exact same seed stock that produced the mother of the Blue Satellite; the mother of the Cocoa Kush being large with some variegation and lavender/blue hues–especially on the undersides of dark leaves on an asymmetric plant often with no discernable main-stem and long side-branches–reminiscent of the original Chocolate Thai both structurally and experientially) crossed with the Original Blueberry male (a stretch-indica).
This quasi-hybrid grows medium-height Kush-like plants with short nodes, large, dark-green foliage, thick-yet-sturdy hollow stems and tight-yet-elongated buds of swollen calyx/bract flowers completely coated in large, clear trichome of superior aromatics. Flower time is approx. 55–60 days, with the more interesting oils developing in the very last week.
Cocoa Kush possesses a complex-yet-subtle palate of a nutty/licorice/chocolate/tobacco blend with a creamy/floral/fruity background. The experience of the finished product is of top-shelf quality; smooth, yet with a bit more intense, `take-your-breath-away` (almost overpowering) initial experience that mellows finally to a sleepy/dreamy finish. Upon final testing, a few individual plants from the Cocoa Kush provided an experience and structural aesthetic very similar to the Blue Velvet; i.e. dense, large calyx, lavender foxtail buds that produce a very exciting-yet-sedate experience.
Please note: approx. 15% of the plants from this line will sport variegated growth patterns. The other 85% will grow uniform plants with slight variation in height. Extended vegetative time coupled with early topping is recommended to increase yield, or run un-topped in a SOG-type system.

Netanyahu says warming ties with Arab world signals hope for peace process
Jonathan Sacderoti/i24NEWS
Israeli Prime Minister Benjamin Netanyahu said on Friday in a wide-ranging foreign policy lecture that his country's warming ties with moderate Arab nations signals hope for the moribund Middle East peace process, but added that Palestinians' refusal to recognize Israel a Jewish state was holding it back.
Speaking at the prestigious Chatham House think tank in London a day after marking the centennial anniversary of the Balfour Declaration with British Prime Minister Theresa May, Netanyahu said that the document's call to establish "a national home for the Jewish people" has been repeatedly rejected by the Palestinians.
"The real reason the [Israel-Palestinian] conflict persists is [Palestinians'] persistent refusal to recognize a Jewish state in any boundary," Netanyahu said.
"How can you asked to have a Palestinian national state without recognizing a Jewish national state [in return]?"
Netanyahu also said that in order to achieve a peace deal, the world might have to rethink its view of sovereignty.
"A Palestinian state won't have military sovereignty," Netanyahu suggested, arguing that Greece surrendered its financial sovereignty in exchange for a bailout from the European Union during its economic crisis.
Israel has demanded that a future Palestinian state be demilitarized, and that any unified Palestinian government require the Gaza-based Hamas militant faction to disarm.
"The Palestinians ought to have all powers to govern themselves, but none of the powers to threaten us," Netanyahu said, calling for Israel to maintain overriding security control in Palestinian territory.
Netanyahu said that while attitudes toward Israel remain hardened among the Palestinians, this is not the case among the wider Arab world.
"There is movement in Arab world," Netanyahu said. "Attitudes toward Israel are still hardened in our immediate vicinity, but as you move toward [the] Arab Gulf you'll find attitudes are mellowing considerably," he said, alluding countries like Saudi Arabia, which shares regional interests with Israel over mutual foes like Iran.
Still, he said, forging alliances with those nations "won't substitute a formal peace agreement with the Palestinians."
Democracy doesn't work
The Israeli prime minister said that an important battle is currently underway in the Middle East between what her termed "modernists" and "early medievalists" or "the barbarians".
Extremist Shi'ite and Sunni groups in the region are competing for dominance, Netanyahu said, emerging from the ashes of fallen regimes. As a result of these competing cultural forces, Netanyahu says democratization of the Middle East is a recipe for disaster.
"You cannot superimpose a Western structure [in the Middle East]. It doesn't work," he said, leaving a choice between "rampant theological, dictatorial theocracies based on Islam" or "more moderate, secular authoritarian regimes."
In early 2011 a wave of anti-government protests, known as the Arab Spring, swept across several countries in the Middle East. However in almost all cases they failed to unseat longstanding oppressive governments.
Amid all the infighting in the Middle East, Netanyahu says, Iran has emerged as a potent force both by direct conquest, but more by proxies such as Hezbollah in Lebanon and Syria, or the Huthi rebels in Yemen.
"Moderate Arab regimes understand that Israel is not their enemy, but indispensable ally, and this attitude is percolating into society," Netanyahu said.
Iran 'devouring' Mideast
On the topic of Iran, Netanyahu reiterated his "fix it or nix it" position with regards to the 2015 nuclear accord signed with world powers.
"By far the greatest danger to the world is a militant Islamic regime meeting nuclear weapons," Netanyahu said.
Netanyahu said that the current iteration of the accord, which does not permit inspections of conventional military sites and which lifts restrictions on uranium enrichment after a decade, offers Iran a "kosher seal of international approval" to "continue unfettered toward an arsenal of nuclear bombs."
US President Donald Trump recently booted the decision of whether to keep his administration in the 2015 Iran nuclear deal, however the other signatories, including Britain, have said they are committed to the agreement.
Israel has also been pressing the international community, particularly Tehran ally Russia, not to allow Iran to entrench militarily in Syria as the government there continues to make gains on the battlefield.
"Iran is devouring one nation after the other," Netanyahu said. "It is doing so either by direct conquest or by using proxy. They took over Lebanon, Yemen... they try to do the same thing with Iraq, in Syria.
"The good news is that the other guys are getting together with Israel as never before. It is something that I would have never expected in my lifetime."
He said Israel was working "very hard" to establish an effective alliance with "the modern Sunni states" to condemn and counter Iranian aggression.
"I think that actually has a great promise of peace" for the region, he said.

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. – Three Dolphins scored in double-figures, but struggles with foul trouble and from behind the arc hindered Jacksonville University's men's basketball team from starting the season 2-0. The Dolphins fell to the United State Air Force Academy on Monday night.
"Air Force was very comfortable offensively, and we'd didn't do a great job offensively in the first half," said Head Coach Tony Jasick on how the Falcons built their lead. "We allowed way too many perimeter threes. We gave up 13 points on offensive rebounds and turnovers in the first half. We just bit ourselves a bit too much, and you can't let a team like this get comfortable offensively."
JU started the second half aggressively with a layup by J.R. Holder, and made all of their next attempts. Air Force responded with three buckets of their own, keeping the lead at 14 points. Over the next 6:12 JU's offense struggled to find a rhythm, sinking just 3 of their next 11 attempts. During that time Air Force outscored the Dolphins 28-15, jumping out to a 30-point lead, 81-51. JU got buckets from Andris Misters, Omar El Manasterly, and Darien Fernandez to chip away the lead, and Devin Harris hit his final 7 free throw attempts, but Air Force was able to hang on, winning by 18, 86-68.
"It's a good lesson for our team about preparation and playing the right way on the road," said Jasick. "Hopefully this lessons sticks after Game 2 and not Game 10 or 12."
Air Force won the tip, but JU struck first with a deep Helgeland three. Air Force took the lead with a 5-0 run, but big shots by Harris and Holder swung the lead back to Jacksonville at 8-5. At the 14:42 mark the Falcons' defense stepped up, holding the Dolphins scoreless for a little over four minutes. During that time Air Force stretched its lead with a 12-2 run, leading 17-13 with 8:46 to go in the first period. Misters was the first Dolphin to score a second bucket, kissing a layup off the backboard with 8:15 left in the first. The Falcons closed the half with a 23-13 run, leading 40-26 at the half.
Tip Ins
- Harris set a career-best in his trip back to the place he called home for six years, scoring 14 points and hitting 7 of his 8 free throw attempts. The junior from Tampa, Fla., connected on his final seven attempts.
- Misters twice hit huge buckets to stop Air Force runs. The first came with 10:45 left in the first half when he scored on a layup, ending a 10-0 run. The second came on an 0-7 shooting drought by JU that lasted over six minutes. The senior from Jelgava, Latvia, hit a deep three to start a 5-0 run by the Dolphins.
- Holder once again led the Dolphins in scoring with 15 points, and newcomers Harris, Helgeland, and Tanner Rubio continue to play important parts, contributing 40 percent of JU's offense.
- Foul trouble pestered the Dolphins all night. Several key players were forced to sit early on, and JU finished with a 26-18 disadvantage in penalties called.
- Jacksonville regressed slightly from beyond the arc, dropping from 45.5 percent against Denver to 31.8 percent against Air Force.

How the LBNE would fit into the Fermilab accelerator complex.
Work toward the world's most intense long-distance neutrino beam received key government approval last week, invigorating US and global collaborators.
The Long Baseline Neutrino Experiment passed the first Department of Energy approval stage Friday, Jan. 8, when it received Critical Decision-0. This designation cements the DOE's support for the need and physics goals of the experiment. In a field where researchers work on multiple projects at once, the designation also helps laboratories prioritize efforts.

From physicsworld.com, Jan. 13, 2010
Physicists have written to the UK's science minister, Lord Drayson, about the "dismal future" for researchers in the UK following cuts announced by a leading UK funding agency last month. They warn that unless the government takes action to reverse the situation the UK will be "perceived as an untrustworthy partner in global projects", and that there will be a brain drain of the best UK scientists to positions overseas.
The cuts were made on 16 December by the Science and Technology Faculties Council (STFC), which announced that the UK will be forced to withdraw from over 25 leading international projects in astronomy, nuclear physics, particle physics and space science. The cuts – brought about by a £40m shortfall in STFC funding – would also lead to a 25 percent cut in the number of STFC studentships and fellowships over the next five years, as well as a 10 percent reduction in support for "future exploitation grants".
A neutrino telescope buried beneath the ice at the South Pole is giving researchers a unique glimpse of temperature changes in the ozone layer.
The IceCube neutrino observatory is a kilometre-scale array of photon detectors buried under the ice at the South Pole. When neutrinos pass through the ice, they occasionally bump into atoms creating particles called muons. These muons then generate light as they pass through the ice which is then picked up by the detector allowing scientists to determine the direction of the incoming neutrino.
The trouble is that most of the muons that IceCube sees are not generated by neutrinos at all but by collisions between cosmic rays and atoms in the upper atmosphere. In fact for every muon fathered by a neutrino, IceCube sees a million muons fathered by cosmic rays.
The bounty of data supplied by the Tevatron and the tireless efforts of the Fermilab Accelerator Division have allowed DZero to very carefully study the top quark. This result is similar to the one reported in an earlier ROW, but restricted solely to top quarks.
A mere decade and a half ago, at this very laboratory, scientists discovered the top quark. Those discovery papers utilized what we would today call only a modest amount of beam. That comparatively small amount of beam translated into many tens of millions of recorded collisions. From that data DZero and CDF observed a few tens of collisions in which top quarks were created and thus the scientists were able to claim discovery.
DZero has recently submitted for publication a measurement of the energy distribution of top quarks. This measurement utilizes about 20 times more data than was available for the discovery paper. From the couple of billion events recorded in Run II, we now have recorded a few hundred top quarks that satisfied the strict selection criteria used in this analysis.
Prior to acquiring the larger Run II data set, scientists found measuring the properties of top quarks to be challenging. They considered theoretical predictions and whether the measurements agreed with those predictions, but with the limited data, it was hard to draw definitive conclusions. One important prediction is of the momentum, the angle at which the top quark escapes from the collision and the energy at which it is produced. Measurements like this have been done to amazing accuracy using the lighter quarks and much less precisely using earlier top quark data. This measurement greatly improves the precision of the top quark measurement. The theory and data are in good agreement, adding another brick in the wall that is the Standard Model.
This measurement is an especially important one, because we do not understand in detail why the top quark is so much heavier than the other five quarks. Because of this, we hope that new physics might be hiding in top quark studies. DZero has recorded five times more data than reported in this analysis, which we are carefully scrutinizing. New physics may still lurk in our data.

This is the first Fanmade Case made by MrKors71 in the Musical Spot in the new city called Darnestown.
Case Background
The player is warmly introduced to the Darnestown Police Department by the chief of police, Julius Maddavar. In the chief's office, he claimed the player's gratitude to accept a job in the city, because the crime rates were wildly increasing, especially in the Musical Spot, and he had no idea why. Meanwhile, the player's new partner, Franco Benitez, was getting late to the job, so he abruptly entered in the office, saying that he was rather embarrassed for being late again. Maddavar, instead his common atittude against delay, he calmly introduced the detective as the player's partner. Franco was astonished to be the player's partner, and asked the player to explore the city. Unfortunately, Chief Maddavar interrupted the conversation, notifying them that a man reported a corpse in a recording studio and the chief was expecting that the player solve the murder, so he could see their teamwork.Once in the studio, Franco recognized the victim: The lead singer of the Scarlett and the Shakers, Scarlett Love. She was lying dead, with two cuts on her neck and dry blood was covering her throat.
In the lab, Clair Zeydane, the head coroner, presented herself to the player, claiming to be their best fan in the world. Franco was getting exhausted of Clair's fascinations, so he told her if she was wanting to show the poster that she had of the victim. Embarrased, she started to explain the autopsy results. The victim was killed instantly, but she fought back, as under the victim's nails were blond hairs, which couldn't have been from the victim because the victim had red hair. Also, Doan McKinnel, the tech expert, introduced himself to the player, proposing to hang out some day to a pub or a dance club. Franco interrupted Doan, arguing they were investigating a case and they didn't have time to go out. The tech expert felt disappointed about Franco's claim, but he told the detective that Franco was right. Then, Doan explained that the key was from the victim's apartment and that the address was Diamond Street 1022. Furthermore, Theodore Fitz, the forensics analyst, presented himself as "the one who graduated with honors from Oxford University". Franco stated that, although Fitz was good, he was too smug. Stumped for the detective's claiming, the forensic offered the player and Franco a cup of hot chocolate, which Benitez accepted. After drinking it, the player's partner asked for the results of the brown substance the player sent to him, what he answered that the detective had just drunk it. Horrified, Franco asked why Fitz gave him the lab sample, in which the Oxford graduate responded that the cocoa wasn't the lab sample but instead what the brown substance really was. Fitz thought that it would be funny to offer the detective cocoa and tell him that he was drinking the sample, which established that he was right. Furious, Franco left Fitz's station, not before adding the clue in the killer's profile.
At the end of Chapter 1, Franco was impressed by the player's skills and the progress they made in the case. Then, the detective decided to recap the information of the case to clean the doubts that were generating at the moment. Franco remembered that Marty Henderson, the band's guitarist and the one who reported the murder to the police, was really shocked and sad about Scarlett's death, acknowlegdging that Scarlett was really nice with him and everybody at the band, meanwhile his sister and the band's baterist, Clover Henderson, said that the victim had a lot of enemies thanks to her hostile attitude against everyone, one of them being her neighbor, Sue Scotish, who had complains against the parties the victim had at her apartment. But, in the middle of the recapping, Chief Maddavar interrupted the conversation and yelled Franco. The detective was confused and asked the chief what was going on, what Maddavar answered that Shannon Kitt, a reporter and one of Franco's best friends, was arrested for trying to percolate in the crime scene.
Before the beginning of Chapter 3, Franco and the player re-agrupped together in the police station and decided to do a recap, trying to recover every single lead about the killer and the new suspects. In the process, Franco apologized himself for his friend attitute, saying that Shannon can be a little stubborn when looking for a scoope. Besides, the detective showed his concern about Clover being more attached to the cymbals than the victim, claiming that Scarlett was the one who let herself die by them in order to pinpoint the baterist as the killer. However, while the team were doing that, Chief Maddavar ordered the player and his partner to go back to the victim's apartment because one of their suspects, what was revealed after to be Sue, attempted to enter there.
Finally, when the player and Franco had no clues or evidence to catch the killer, Timm Fortuna, the victim's band agent and a suspect in the case, appeared in the station claiming the team to let him enter in his office to end some earring business. The player and his partner had no choice rather than investigate the office again. But thank to that, the player was able to finally arrest the killer: the band's drummer, Clover Henderson
When the team accused Clover for being the murderer, she defended herself saying that she was in her home at the time of the murder. But, after showed her all the evidence they gathered, she had nothing to do but confess. In the killer's words, the victim was a talentless junky woman who only was good to make people's life more difficult. She was rude with the band's agent, got angrily easy with her or her brother Marty, both members of the band, and most of the time she complain about everything. The killer revealed that her attitude was not the bigger reason why she decided to kill her, but instead her brother's expulsion from the band. Clover stablished his brother was more talented than the victim but less confident so, if he knew that Scarlett was recruiting new guitarists, he wouldn't put resistance and he would left the band. The killer didn't want to see his brother as a fast food chef for life, so she decided to confront the victim to try to change her opinion. They met both members outside the recording studio and then Clover started to talk, trying to safe his brother's career. Unfortunately, Scarlett was way too far to let him get in again and threatened the killer to shut up if she didn't want to suffer the same fate. After that, the victim entered in the building and left the meeting.
Furious, the killer entered in the bulding too and headed to the recording studio. Fortunately, only she and the victim were there. Clover took advantage of the situation and pulverized Scarlett against the wall, where she would be found lying dead, but the singer fought back pulling the killer's hair. Desperate, Clover took one of her cymbals, with the intention of defending herself, however, that didn't go as well as planned. The cymbal was going so fast enough to cut the victim's throat and made her bleed to death. After the murder, the drummer left the cymbal in its place, ran towards Timm's office, left the access badge one of the deks's drawers, and unconsciously dropped one of her gloves in a trash can. After her declaration, she was sent to court.
There, the judge in charge of the murders in Darnestown, Milena Collins, asked whether the killer thought they were innocent or guilty, in which Clover plead guilty and showed no regret for the murder, despite what happened was an accidental murder. The judge was stumped about her decision, claiming that she had to be ashamed for her actions. The baterist told Milena that Scarlett deserved to suffer, either it had to be with murder. The judge heard enough but before giving the sentence, she decided to make Clover one more question, which was how had she discovered the expulsion of his brother if only the victim and Timm knew about it. Surprised, the killer revealed that a mysterious person left her a note to meet the drummer "somewhere she forgot". There, the informant told her about the recruiting and gave her one of the posters. Milena finally asked if the killer knew who was that informant, but she had no idea who it was. Putting an end in the session, the judge sentenced Clover to 25 years for murder.
Chief Maddavar conglaturated the player for solving his first case in an exceptional manner. However, he revealed the player his worries concerning Clover's declarations in court and Shannon's photos of the victim. In one hand, the team had to talk to the killer to find out what the mysterious informant wanted. And, in the other hand, they need to figure out who had been selling drugs to the victim. After talking to Clover, examinating her purse and investigating Timm's office again, they found out a security recording which had the meeting between the killer and the informant. Franco decided to talk to Timm because he was wanting to know if the agent had more information about the meeting, but he had no idea about it.
Meanwhile, the team questioned Shannon about the photo she took from the victim, in which she answered that the victim's apartment was the place where she took the photo. Once there, the player found a cocaine mirror. With the help of the vacuum tool in the forensics kit, they took some residue, which, after analysis was performed, turned out to have the DNA of Sue Scotish. Franco interrogated her and discovered that she was a drug dealer. The reason that she wanted Scarlett out of the building was the excessive orders of the illegal substances she was requesting. Franco couldn't believe what the woman told him and the detective arrested her inmediately.
After solving both problems, Maddavar was disappointed about the lack of information about the secret informant, but was happy that the player succeded in arresting a drug dealer. In compensation for the good work, the chief let Franco and the player to patrol the city, which could help the player to be familiarized with the city. Franco loved the idea, and told the player that, when they would be ready, he would be waiting him on the parking lot.

Yet another social experiment with the same results yet again.
Yet another social experiment with the same results yet again.
I note that, religious nut-cases aside, medical professionals regularly speak out about routine neonatal genital mutilation for boys. It is always refreshing to hear someone who in a position to do harm with impunity refuse to do so on ethical grounds.
Pay close attention to people's reactions. 'nuff said.

Can someone tell me WTF it is about so many women that attempt to cut off men's penises? We don't hear about men trying to cut of the wife's breasts or clitorises. I can't count the number of times that I've had women joke about cutting of my penis, or the applause and laughter that accompanies such thoughts.
Sugar and spice and everything nice? I think not.
NEW CASTLE (KDKA) – A woman was arrested after allegedly trying to cut off her husband's penis with a box cutter in Ellwood City.
According to the criminal complaint, Lisa Jones-Orock, 39, of Ellwood City, is facing charges stemming from an altercation Friday night inside an apartment on Sankey Street.
Jones-Orock initially told police her husband, Gerald Orock, attacked her with a knife. As a result, the man was briefly taken into custody.
After being taken to the New Castle Police Department, the man told police Jones-Orock tried to cut his penis off with a box cutter.
Inside of the apartment, police found the suspected blue box cutter and blood on the floor.
The man's pants were cut in the crotch area. He also had cuts to his arms and hands. Police determined the wounds were defensive in nature.
"We deal with domestic situations all the time, but I don't recall anything getting this physical where genitalia was attacked," New Castle Police Lt. David Cumo said. "He said she had attacked him with the box cutter and was trying to cut off his penis. Officers observed cuts in his crotch area of his pants, some cuts on his legs. He did have a cut on his left forearm and his right hand which did indicate defensive wounds to them."
Meanwhile, Jones-Orock was taken into custody on an outstanding bench warrant for DUI.
She was already being lodged in the Lawrence County Jail when police determined she was the attacker in this incident.
A small bag of marijuana was also found in her purse.
She is now facing a list of charges including, aggravated assault, simple assault, possession of marijuana and harassment.
Meanwhile, her husband has been charged for violating a protection from abuse order Jones-Orock had previously taken out. He was also charged for marijuana possession.
He is also being held in the Lawrence County Jail.

Is rape hilarious? Well duh! Of course it is! Andrew Bailey makes the case.
After watching this video, ask yourself: Should this woman decided to allege that the boy tried to take advantage of her and that she had to defend herself against him–which of the two would be believed?

WHY don't decent blokes do anything? Have we lost our collective cojones?
In today's viral video of feral females monstering an innocent train passenger, the most depressing aspect is the sea of faces studiously looking down at their phones, tablets, papers – anywhere but at the aggressors and their victim.
Nobody got up to help, to shield the man, tell the girls to pull their heads in or even to show silent support … not until the teenagers had left the carriage.
I'm sure everyone had a reason to not get involved – as a daily train traveller who has seen plenty of vile incidents, I get the dilemma – but in the cold light of day it adds up to a shocking show of apathy, especially from the men.
What has happened to us? And it's specifically the blokes I'm talking to.
Why, in such a situation, do ordinary guys sitting nearby not exchange glances, give each other a nod and take collective action?
When young oiks of either sex rampage up and down train carriages, distressing mums and kids with vile language, why do the big guys in suits or fluoro vests – the regular real men who would not wish their families subjected to this – not stand up together, exercise their natural authority and bring calm to the situation?
It works; and even if it does not stop the idiots, it gives the traumatised victim a much-needed shield and comfort.
"But I don't know what's going on, it's not my business," I hear you think. "How do I know who's in the right?"
Even if it's not obvious, you don't need to know – just stopping the situation escalating is enough, then leave matters of right/wrong/crime to the proper authorities.
I'm no hero: I've asked gangs of swearing teens to stop and had great results, possibly because I spoke with respect; I've also chosen not to tackle big, hairy Neanderthals in the same situation because they looked way too dangerous. A considered decision, but for a time I still hated that I bottled.
I've tackled a bag-snatcher and chased him away from his victim and his loot, but backed off when he turned on me in case he had a weapon. Another considered decision – one that I was much happier with.
I don't suggest people put themselves in danger, but I'd argue that a few calm adult men acting as a group would be enough to dissipate the danger in these situations.
Humans are capable of heroic altruism – witness those ordinary citizens who confront serious maniacs like terrorists – but can be shockingly slow to act.
Who stepped in when Nigella Lawson was being choked in a restaurant by her husband? Nobody. Not a single one of their genteel, cashed-up fellow diners.
In the recent string of racist attacks on Australian buses, a few brave souls have intervened for the victims – but far too few.
It's time to stand up and be counted, fellas. Be the role models and leaders our society needs, but don't leave each other hanging when someone gets the ball rolling.
When ordinary good guys act together, it can be an enormously powerful force.

Showcase: How Regents Park College, Oxford Sell Tickets Online/
What's the event?
Regent's Park College, Oxford, plays host to the Ministerial Gaudy and the Henton Davis Memorial Lecture.
Type of Events
At the colleges and halls of the University of Oxford, a gaudy is a college feast and is often a reunion for its alumni. It's a celebratory formal dinner, generally in black tie and academic gowns and can include events such as chapel services, lectures or concerts beforehand.
How Ticket Tailor transformed their ticket selling:
Switching From Physical to Digital Tickets
Traditionally, tickets to Regent's Park College's gaudies were sold physically, which can cause organisational issues - not to mention the prospect of losing paperwork.
By switching to selling tickets online with Ticket Tailor, Regents Park College are able to reduce administration costs and time spent managing their ticket sales. They are also still able to sell physical tickets if they wish and house all customer data in their Ticket Tailor account. Some other ticketing platforms do not allow clients to input data from alternative ticket selling routes.
What do they think of their new system?
"Before Ticket Tailor, we were selling tickets via a long and tortuous manual procedure. Since implementing their system, it's simplified the process and made it much more professional."
Tim Pottle, Development Manager
If you would like to find out how Ticket Tailor can improve your ticketing, please email us on firstname.lastname@example.com or check out our online tour.

I'll warn you right now, the level of guitar and moog wank in this clip is off the fucking scale. But it rocks like a fucking mountain, which is why I'm posting it. Yes, I know it's Journey, but, and this is the important bit, it's long before they went pop (although most of the early stuff is still hideous) and not long after Greg Rolie and the other bloke left Santana*, probably because Carlos wouldn't let him play his moog like he does in the second song here. There's no excuse for this sort of behaviour really, but when it's done with this level of intensity, and accompanied by some of the funniest fucking facial expressions of profound ecstasy in the history of music, it's irresistible, like a dirty kebab after fourteen pints of scrumpy.
Skip ahead to 4.20 and 9.30 for the really good shit...
Christ, it's like a fucking cross between early ZZ Top and Goblin.
*The bass player and rhythm guitarist were previously in the sorely fucking underrated Frumious Bandersnatch, psych fans!

Christina Berenice Hare
Should be no surprise she would be my #1!
What a year it has been with her. I can't imagine my life without her and I love her so much. On that hot August day in 2010 when I found out I was having a girl I didn't know what the Lord was up too. Once again He knows what's best, what we need the most, and He knows better than anyone else. I am so very thankful He gave her to me.
She completes me. I know you are not suppose to say that…especially about your children but she does. A friend told me the difference between her son and her daughter was…"her son was her pride & joy but her heart aches for her daughter". This is true for me.Someone close to me scolded me this year and told me "I was letting my children become me." To that person this was a bad thing but to me this was a huge compliment. My children are me…my children are my life now. From the time I was a little girl, all I wanted to be was a Mommy.
The Lord made me wait for what seemed like forever. I sowed my "wild oats", went to college, traveled, and had a great career but nothing could satisfy what I really desired.
The first night Randy and I went out as a couple he asked me what I wanted to be when I grew up (I was 26 at the time!) and I told him a stay at home Mommy.
Little did I know the Lord would give me the desires of my heart.I love a girl. She's my little spit-fire and a ball of joy rolled into one. She is emotional, demanding, happy, and content to play by herself for hours at a time.
My cup runneth over….
