The Echo Park neighborhood council this week completed paperwork to fund some neighborhood improvement projects and pay off some bills after it was able to tap into $30,000 in funds that has been frozen by the city.
After cutting access to the funds last fall, the Department of Neighborhood Empowerment, the city agency that oversees neighborhood councils, unfroze the funds this week after the current board members of the Greater Echo Park Elysian Neighborhood Council submitted missing financial reports from six quarters. In June the members of the council will undergo training on the financial rules for neighborhood councils. The training will focus on teaching council members the fiscal responsibilities of sitting on the board, according to DONE Project Coordinator Melvin Canas.
"New members may not know the rules and dynamics of the council," he said.
Ari Bessendorf, president of the council, said the council had begun issuing grants now that funds could be tapped and was beginning to form the next budget. Bessendorf described the council's efforts to unfreeze the funds as "herculean" and said the local governing body was prepared to serve the community.
Other priorities included finding a new meeting space because the previous site was not in compliance with the building code, which burdened the council with fees.
"We're under new management," he said.
Stakeholder Ida Talalla, a critic of the previous leadership, remained skeptical of the governing body. She pointed out that the council's funds had been frozen before and members of the current council had been subject to retraining after past instances of fiscal non-compliance. Talalla also accused the president of opaque governing because he did not present the official letter from the city declaring the fund open.
She called for the council to be de-certified because of the mismanagement of funds. "To be in that state and not be fiscally incompetent? Then I don't know what is," she said.
Bessendorf acknowledged the previous council's mistakes and that members of the council had been through the training process before. But he felt that the council had made substantial improvements and contributions to the community. He pointed to helping fund library clean-ups and issuing grants to local schools and recreation centers.
"We wouldn't have our funds unfrozen if we weren't doing something right," he said.
Canas could not confirm the number of board members who had gone through the retraining process, but said the city offers training to all new board members and expected to see familiar faces.
"I wouldn't doubt that they have gone through orientations in the past," he said.
With its funds unfrozen, the Echo Park neighborhood council will hold a townhall meeting on Saturday, May 18 to help shape its budget for the next year. The meeting will be a chance for the community to brainstorm where the board of governors will allocate its budget for the next year, Bessendorf said. He encouraged community groups, artists and any underfunded entities in the area to come so they can make use of the council's funds and ability to work with the city to use public property.
"We're looking for people to help us in our outreach mission," Bessendorf said. "We're looking for things that have lots of impact in the community."
The budget town hall will be held on Saturday, May 18 at 10 a.m. in the Echo Park Recreation Center, 1632 Bellevue Ave.
* Correction: A previous version of this story said the council's funds were unfrozen this week. That's wrong. They were unfrozen in April but the council completed the paperwork this week to spend the funds.

The clown from Stephen King's, It, has nothing on these guys. One thing nobody can argue is that clowns with dildos who make lewd comments and gestures are particularly scary clowns. The Massacre Haunted House in Montgomery, Illinois warns visitors not to attend if they are easily offended. Perhaps they should have been a bit clearer on what exactly that meant.
Regina Janito filed a lawsuit Tuesday against the 20,000 square foot establishment for assault, negligence, and intentional infliction of emotional duress for unspecified damages. She says that when her, her daughter, and three other minors approached the haunted house to purchase their tickets on October 11, two male clowns approached them with sex toys making lewd comments and poking at them.
One of the clowns identified as Robert Keller is accused of violently poking the 17-year old daughter with a purple vibrator "in various parts of her body, including her buttocks." The other clown has not been identified other than to say he was a male holding a teddy bear with a sexual device attached to it. Janito claims the man was simulating oral sex on the teddy bear. As the women screamed and ran, Janito stated the men continued to call after them, one of them shouting, "You know you like it in the butt!"
This is not unusual behavior for this establishment. A writer for the Chicago Tribune, Luis Gomez, reported that "an actor dressed as a cross-dressing junkie begged me to help him get his fix and revealed the sexual act he was willing to do if I helped him get it."
The general manager of the haunted house, Nic Miele, said in a statement: "We make every effort to ensure our Halloween experience is as safe and as scary as possible. We abide by all regulations, take all allegations seriously, and are cooperating with police. All the while, we are committed to continuing our Halloween tradition of fear and fright for many years to come.
Janito's attorney, Michael Huseman, said: "The conduct of the haunted house and its employees crossed all lines of decency and common sense. Their conduct was outrageous and extreme. My client and her daughter were traumatized by the event. We hope this whole thing is resolved quickly." Language in the lawsuit states, "The acts committed by Keller and John Doe [the other unidentified male] were beyond the standards of civilized decency and beyond the scope of what society is willing to tolerate."
23-year old Robert Keller was charged earlier this month with battery and disorderly conduct; perhaps a plus on his resume for a job like this. Regardless of the outcome of the lawsuit, Janito has unintentionally given The Massacre Haunted House quite a bit of free publicity that will probably largely increase its profits this year. While these types of accusations may keep people away from any other type of establishment, those not "easily offended" are properly already headed in droves to Montgomery.

Air is a real substance even though you can't see it. A new flat sheet of paper falling downwards pushes against the air in their path. The air forces back contrary to the paper and slows its fall. A new crumpled piece of paper has a smaller surface pushing against the air. The air doesn't push back as strongly just like the smooth piece, and the basketball of Avion En Papier Planeur Facile A Faire paper falls faster. The spread-out wings of a paper aeroplane keep it from falling quickly down to the ground. We say the wings give a plane lift.
Try moving the paper slowly and gradually through the air. Will the air push upwards the slowmoving paper as much as before? What do you think happens when a paper rudder stops moving forward through the air? You can show that a similar thing will happen if you run with a kite surrounding this time. The air pushes against the tilted underside of the moving kite and lifts it up. What happens to the lift driving up on the kite if you Origami Owl Locket walk slowly and gradually rather than run?
You want a document aeroplane to do more than just fall gradually through the air. You want it to move forward. You make a document aeroplane move forward by throwing it. Usually the harder you throw a paper aeroplane the further it will fly. The particular forward movement of the aeroplane is called thrust Drive helps to give an aeroplane lift. Here's how. Hold one end of a sheet of document and move it quickly through the environment. The flat sheet hits against the air in its route. The air pushes upwards the free part of the moving paper. A paper aeroplane Bateau En Papier Maché must undertake the air so that it can stay upward for longer flights.
Typically the secret lies in the shape of the side. The front edge of an aeroplane's wing is more rounded and thicker than the rear border.
Move works to slow a plane down, as thrust works to allow it to be move forward. At the same time, lift functions make a plane go up, as gravity tries to make it slip. These four forces are working on paper aeroplanes just as they work on real aeroplanes. There is still another way most real aeroplanes and some paper aeroplanes use their wings to increase lift. The top-side as Avion En Papier Planeur Youtube well as the bottom side of the wing can help to give the plane lift.
The front edges of the wings of any real aeroplane are usually tilted somewhat upwards. As with a kite, the air pushes against the tilted underside of the wings, giving the airplane lift. The greater the angle of the point the more wing surface the air pushes against. This specific results in a greater amount of lift. But if the angle of the tilt is actually great, the air pushes against the bigger wing surface presented and slows down the forwards movement of the plane. This is certainly called drag.

 = ; Audio Technology vs. Braille
ad= apted from Rachel Aviv,
"Listening to Braille," The New York Times= i>,
January 3, 2010.
Since the 1820s, when Louis Braille invented = his writing system to release blind persons from being "despised or patronized by condescending sighted people," blind people have felt t= hat learning to read gave them a sense of independence and even of social advancement. The oral culture, on which they had previously been dependent,= was viewed as primitive and isolating. In recent years, however, the development of<= /span> sophisticated audio technology has rendered braille le= ss important socially and politically. Because a single textbook can cost more than $1,000 and there is a shortage of braille teachers in public schools, visually impaired students often "read= 221; by using MP3 players, audiobooks, and computer-screen-reading software.
Laura Sloate, the
managing director of a Wall Street investment firm, who has been blind since
the age of six, spends several hours a day reading financial newspapers, us=
a phone service that reads them aloud in a synthetic voice or by using her
computer's text-to-speech software. Says Ms. Slo=
of braille: "It's an arcane means of communication, which for t=
most part ought to be abolished. It's not needed today." =
= o:p>
There is, however, a downside to being comple= tely dependent on oral "literacy." At the annual convention of the National Federation of the Blind, held in Detroit in July, 2009, horror sto= ries circulated about children who don't know what a paragraph is, or why we capitalize certain letters, or that "happily ever after" consists= of three separate words. Because the NFB regards itself as a leader in upholdi= ng the civil rights of blind persons, it views braille in the old fashioned wa= y, as a mark of independence. It has made a mantra of "listening is not literacy."
Frederick Schroeder, a vice president of the Federation, is volubly repentant about his lack of reading skills. "I = am now over 50 years old," he told reporter Rachel Aviv, "and it was= n't until two months ago that I realized that 'dissent,' to disagree, is differ= ent from 'descent,' to lower something. I'm functionally illiterate . . . . I'm sorry about it, but I'm not embarrassed to admit it."
While business executives like Laura Sloate can be successful without a knowledge of braille, they have access to sophisticated equipment th= at the vast majority of visually impaired people cannot afford. Researchers in youth education have discovered the ultimate irony—that schoolchildre= n in developed countries, like the U.S. and Britain, appear to have a lower stan= dard of braille literacy than those in developing countries of Asia and Africa. = It is, some have suggested with sardonic humor, "one of the advantages of being poor." =
Braille illiteracy is a growing problem
adapted from JSOnline
Milwaukee Journal Sentinel<= /p>
Posted: Feb. 2, 2010
Ronnay Howard is 9 years old and legally blind with cornrows in her hair and a smile on her face. She sits in front of a keyboa= rd in the resource room for the visually impaired at Engl= eburg Elementary School in Milwaukee, her small hands moving methodically over six large keys. She is writing in braille, spelling out a single word ‑ furious.
"I know I'm really good at it," she says.
This is how braille is learned and how it is preserved, one student at a time, one word at a time.
Technology has been a great leveler, a blessing in this modern age for those with visu= al impairments. It has enabled tens of thousands of people to access written material quickly, to hear what they cannot see.
But there is an underside to the use of technology, to all the cassette tapes a= nd digital recordings of everything from romance novels to textbooks to govern= ment forms.
It is called braille illiteracy.
According to a report issued last year, fewer than 10% of the 1.3 million people who = are legally blind in America are braille readers.
Reasons for the low rate of braille literacy include a shortage of braille teachers, schools not offering braille to students who have low vision and a so‑= ;called "spiral of misunderstanding" that the system is slow and difficul= t to learn.
"Every time a new technology came along, they said this is the thing that can repl= ace braille," says Marc Riccobono, executive director of the National Federation of the Blind's Jernigan Institute in Baltimore.
Riccobono, a Milwaukee native who was diagnosed with glaucoma at age 5, says that during the 1960s and 1970s there was an influx of blind students into = the public education system. With a shortage of braille teachers, a convenient = way to educate the children was with audio devices.
"You had a whole generation that grew up without braille," he says.
In Milwaukee Public Schools, about 20 students ‑ out of 130 visually impaired ‑ read braille. Some students in the system have multiple disabilities.
"People realize that braille is literacy," says Hope Good, who works in program support at Engleburg Elementary. "You can't spell or punctuate with a tape recorder."
Marilyn Harmon, who teaches the visually impaired, says most braille readers "catch up with their sighted peers by the fifth grade." For adult= s, it's trickier. "Braille is making a comeback," she says.
And Milwaukee provides a key to that resurgence. At the central branch of the Milwaukee Public Library, a remarkable collection of transcribers and technicians keeps braille alive. This is the home of Audio & Braille Literacy Enhancement Inc. ‑ known as ABLE. The nonprofit group provid= es braille transcriptions as well as audio items for those unable to use print materials.
Cheryl Orgas is ABLE's exe= cutive director. Blind since birth, Orgas was the first member of her family to graduate from college. For her, braille is a cornerstone of education.
percent of the blind are unemployed in this country," Orgas
says. "Of the remaining 30% who have jobs, 80% of them know braille.
"Braille is attached to literacy and to success in employment."
For audio material, the group uses 24 volunteer readers. For braille, there are= 12 volunteer transcribers. Most of the volunteers work at home. The organizati= on transcribes around 1,000 items into braille each year.
"We're doing estate plans, tax returns, opera librettos and symphony orchestra programs," Orgas says.= p>
Cheri McGrath, ABLE's board president, has been blind= since birth. She recalls that when she was a child she knew she needed to learn braille. She remembers being in a bathtub and discussing with her mother the various spellings and meanings for teddy bear, bare arms and Bayer aspirin.=
"If you didn'= t have a written language, you'd be the odd man out," McGrath says. "Spell= ing brings us together."

A Parents̵= 7; Choice for Braille
by Amy Santin
Our daughter, Elena, who is eight years old a=
nd in
third grade, is the oldest of our three children. She was born with
congenital glaucoma, an eye disease that can potentially result in
blindness. There is no cure for glaucoma, only treatment. =
= o:p>
= Vision and occupational thera= py services from the Birth to Three program helped her with some of her early developmental delays, and at the = age of three she transitioned into the Madison Public School's Early Childhood program because of the vision diagnosis. We decided that it would be important for her to learn some braille to have as a back up in the event that she lost her vision, so she worked on pre-braille skills such as tracking and also began to learn to use the braillewriter.
= When Elena started kindergart= en the plan was for her to continue using print as her primary medium for learning= and braille as a back-up. She had done well in preschool learning to read print= .
About half way t= hrough the kindergarten year we noticed that she was starting to have severe mood swings and fatigue after a long day at school, and that she was struggling = to keep up with her work. We started enlarging all of her work in additi= on to implementing some low vision tools for her to use to help reduce the str= ain on her eyes. We also decided that it was important to increase her exposure= to braille.
During first gra= de, Elena continued to do well with the low vision aids and increased braille exposure, but the fatigue returned. We noticed that the fluctuations in her vision were contributing to the fatigue. More frequent changes in her glass= es prescription seemed to do the trick for a while; however, as she was finish= ing her year in first grade we were still very concerned with how much she was exhausting herself by using her vision to learn throughout the school day. =
As she entered s= econd grade, we made the decision that it was time to transition her to using bra= ille as her primary reading medium. We realized that as she progressed through school the work would become harder and the print size smaller. We feared t= hat she would fall behind academically, not because she wasn't intellectu= ally capable of doing the work, but because her vision was holding her back. And= , we were concerned about how much the fatigue was affecting her emotional well-being and her ability to just be a kid and enjoy school and learning l= ike her peers. We also tried to look at the big picture and see what long = term goals we had for her for the future ‒ like attending college and gett= ing a job to support herself and live independently despite her visual impairment.
The move from pr= int to braille has been difficult and frustrating at times, but we know it is only temporary. We now understand that Elena is= more equipped with the= tools to read braille than she is to read print with her eyes. It is just a matter of helping her develop those auditory and tactile skills further and teaching her that she does not have to rely on her unstable vision for learning.
Elena is currently finishing the first semest=
er of
third grade. She has made amazing progress and we have seen her
confidence grow and her fatigue decrease as she becomes more adept at using
braille. At the beginning of second grade she started out reading braille at
the equivalent of a PLAA level 6 (beginning first grade) and is now reading
fluently at a PLAA 23 (beginning third grade). Her writing has greatly impr=
as well, and she is adding many more details to her stories, all in
braille! We look forward to the future when she will not only be able =
keep up with her peers, but will be able to reach her full potential
academically because she is using the tools that best suit her to learn.
Elena's yo=
brother, Eli, was also born with congenital glaucoma and unfortunately has a
more severe case. His chances of losing his vision in his lifetime are
very high. Although it has been and will continue to be a difficult journey=
both Elena and Eli, at least we can say that we have learned many things th=
have helped us to make better decisions for both of them. Eli is now f=
years old and is learning braille as his primary medium with the help of the
wonderful vision staff in the Madison Public Schools. We can't wait f=
Elena to be able to help him with his braille homework when he is older!

Annual Braille Games
by Becky Williams and Cheryl Orgas
On March 19th, 201= 0, Becky Williams, Board President of the Badger Association, and Cheryl Orgas, Executive Director of Audio & Braille Lite= racy Enhancement, (ABLE), co-chaired the 8th annual Braille Games, he= ld this year at Gaenslen School, a premier Milwaukee Sc= hool. This intergenerational competition matched experienced, braille-literate adults with children using braille in= the classroom and at home. The theme for this year's event was braille on= the job. In the morning, the entire group of children and blind adult mentors participated in large group activities.
Teams competed in =
human braille cell game, the braillewriter relay, and the treasure hunt. On=
e of
the most popular activities was the treasure hunt, designed by Gretchen
At lunch, pizza wa= s a big hit and so were the frosted cookies with m&m= span> brailled letters on each cookie, made by Lenore Tesch, a volunteer braille transcriber from ABLE.
The students enjoy= ed the opportunity to meet other visually impaired students. At lunch, two of the younger children sat with Meghan Whalen, who is attending UW-Madison. They = enjoyed hearing about Meghan's guide dog, and her pet dogs. It was good for t= hem to meet a young woman who lives on her own.
In the afternoon, children broke up into small groups. Marilyn Harmon led kindergarteners thr= ough third graders in an activity using braille to label all the tasks people ca= n do in braille as employees in a hospital or an office building.
Claire Egan led the fourth through sixth graders in a braille game, similar to musical chairs, where players had to read brailled instructions that told them where to move next around a conference table, along with job duties that can be done in braille. (For example: You use braille to study your budget.) All players m= ove two seats to the left. The goal was to get to the CEO seat at the head of t= he table. They had lots of fun reading braille while they kept moving around t= he table.
Becky Williams led= the 7th through 9th graders in a discussion about one's dream job and how brail= le can be used to perform that dream career. Dream jobs included librarian, tr= avel agent, pediatrician, record producer, and animal care provider. =
Over 60 children, = adult volunteers, staff from the Badger Association, ABLE, Milwaukee Public Schoo= ls, Talking Book and Braille Library (TBBL), and even staff from as far away as Madison attended this exciting event. Judy Turner from Wisconsin Braille came with one of her students and Dawn = Soto sent one of her students with his parent and braille transcriber to the eve= nt. A group of children and staff also came from Waukesha.
Every attendee lef= t with a goody bag of fun items from the TBBL and their own braille book transcrib= ed by ABLE.
Braille Games is a testimony to the success of this tool in the lives of blind and visually impaired children and adults throughout the world. =

book review
Beyond the Miracle Worker: The Remarkable Life of Anne Sullivan Macy and Her Extraordinary Friendship with=
Helen Keller
By Kim E. Nielsen
(Boston: Beacon
Press, 200= 9). Pp. xv, 299.
&= nbsp;
&= nbsp; Kim E. Nielsen, who has previously published a biography of Helen Keller and ed= ited Keller's Selected Writings, has= now written a splendid account of the life of the woman whom Helen Keller refer= red to all her life as "Teacher." A first-rate scholar and professor = of history and women's studies at the University of Wisconsin-Green Bay, Niels= en has written a "warts and all" study of Anne Sullivan Macy, whom previous writers have eulogized as the consummate educator. By telling the story from Sullivan Macy's perspective, Nielsen tells a tale of a defective= but determined woman's quest for a meaningful life.
&= nbsp; Born in 1866 to poverty-stricken Irish immigrants, she suffered an eye disease in her youth that left her with severely limited eyesight all her life. Abando= ned by a widowed father, Anne spent several years at the Massachusetts State Almshouse at Tewksbury. She was rescued from Tewksbury by the Boston philanthropist/reformer Franklin B. Sanborn (one of the "Secret Six&qu= ot; who had financed John Brown's raid on Harper's Ferry), who gained her entra= nce into Samuel Gridley Howe's Perkins Institution and School for the Blind. She remained at the Perkins School for six years, and though she never learned braille, she graduated at the top of her class. At age 21 one of her Perkins instructors obtained for her a position as tutor to six-year-old Helen Kell= er, the deaf-mute and blind daughter of an Alabama cotton planter.= span>
&= nbsp; Sullivan acquainted Keller with the world through the one sense the child had—= touch. Sullivan taught her to read by having the child run her fingers over the sh= ape of letters of the alphabet. Sullivan reported her progress to the president= of the Perkins School, who published her report and called Keller "the se= cond Laura Bridgman." This was of course a reference to the deaf-mute and b= lind child with whom Samuel Gridley Howe had gained fame and financial backing f= or the Perkins Institute. While the school's publicity made Sullivan famous, it also attracted the attention of Howe, who sought to enhance his earlier suc= cess by taking over the education of Helen Keller. The result was a years-long battle between Sullivan and Howe for control of the obviously brilliant Kel= ler as she passed through her teenage years into adulthood. After Keller gradua= ted from Radcliffe College and began to take control of her own life, Sullivan,= who by then was going through a disastrous marriage to John Macy, became increasingly dependent on Keller to give meaning to her own life. The dependence was enhanced by Sullivan-Macy's struggle with her own blindness,= ill health, and depression.
&= nbsp; Nielsen, in sum, has given us a tale with no heroes (except, possibly Keller herself= ). But, for that, the story is all the more human and fascinating to read.
&= nbsp; I have two new braille readers in my class. Their names are Tammy Wolfowitz and Brent Chisholm. I am not sure how to correctly braille their names. Do I use the "ow<= /span>" contraction in Wolfowitz? How about the "= sh" in Chisholm?
Dear Bewildered,
&= nbsp; Names often present a problem in braille, especially if we aren't sure of t= he proper pronunciation. In the case of Wolfowitz, there is no doubt that the o and the w are pronounced separately. Rule X.34.b(7) in English Braille American Edition t= ells us that a contraction is not used if it would cause difficulty in pronunciation. If the "ow" contract= ion were used, the reader might assume the pronunciation to be Wolf/ow/itz. So, the contraction is not used in this name.=
&= nbsp; Nor is the sh contraction used in Chisholm (<= span class=3DSpellE>Chis/holm). Although the use of the sh contraction would not af= fect the pronunciation very much, Rule XII.38.e says that in proper names, when a syllable division occurs between the letters gh, sh, = or th the contractions cannot be used.
&= nbsp; Other names give us pause for thought as well. How about al Qaeda (the alternative spelling for al Quida), Christine Evert, or Da= niel Boone? If you keep the basic braille rules in mind, they aren't so hard.
&= nbsp; The ed contraction cannot be used i= n al Qaeda because ae is a diphthong (remember to use a letter indicator before al). The diphthongs ae and oe occur with unexpected frequency in names, and must never yield to contracti= ons ‒ Goering, Oedipus, Roederer, Baer, Baedeker, to cite just a few. Cau= tion: braille recognizes only two diphthongs, ae and oe ‒= ; not ue, a= s in Gruening = or Gruenwald= , where the en contraction is used, or = ei, as in Steinway, where the in is used.
&= nbsp; By checking a biographical dictionary, you will find that Christine Evert̵= 7;s name is pronounced ē/vert. Since initial-l= etter contractions must retain their original sounds, the ever contraction cannot be used. Edward Everett, on the other h= and would use the contraction in his name.
nbsp; Since
the o and the n occur in the sa=
syllable in Boone, the one contraction is used. But what =
if you
don't know the correct pronunciation of a name and you can't fi=
it in a dictionary? Through common usage we know that
&= nbsp; Don't forget that a short-form word can never be part of a proper name. The eleme= nt, quicksilver, is qksilver in braille; Mr. Quicks= ilver is always brailled Mr. Quicksilver.
&= nbsp; For more on this subject see Section 11.9 in the Instruction Manual for Braille Transcribing (5th edition) that h= as a very thorough review of contraction usage in proper names.

I apologize for the lack of videos lately…I've been shopping around for decent and reasonably priced video editors lately to give my videos a cleaner look.
This is still a learning curve for me and while it seems rather simple for most…I never had need for them before starting my own videos for my YouTube channel.
I'm very glad that I chose to do this in smaller steps though too as I may have given up if I'd tried to learn it all at once instead of doing it in steps like this.
I've gotten a few pointers from others and have applied most of those pointers. I've been doing the marketing necessary and I've received help from some really great friends.
So, to all of you, U cannot thank you enough for the continued support and hope to keep learning, growing, and putting great content out for all to see.

text: GETAWAYS Sandways at Camber Sands a blissful beachside getaway A 1930s weatherboard house turned retro holiday home, Sandways, a very stylish but informal beachside cottage, is set just minutes away from the magnificent beach at Camber Sands. With four big bedrooms, a spacious garden (with visiting donkeys no less) and a glorious sundeck that runs the entire length of the property, it's a fantastic escape for stressed-out city types, families looking to spend some quality time together, or groups of friends who want to hold a celebration somewhere special. B Y P O L L Y H U M P H R I S Approaching Sandways, you can feel the stress dissipating; travelling from bustling Brighton, we left the town behind us before passing through various little villages and finally approaching the property with little else but sheep and lush open countryside to distract us. Tucked away on a quiet lane, there is nothing ramshackle about the property; in fact, it's really very cool. The black weatherboards marked proudly with a bright red front door give the exterior just the right amount of edge, but in a chic, not showy way. the west-facing garden, and every effort has been made to instil calm: other than one or two flashes of colour evinced in the quirky prints that hang on the walls, all is white, and welcomingly so. Reflecting on our time at Sandways, and where we found our natural hub, it's clear to see how easily adaptable the space is to the many different groups that could visit it. Although the lounge is the biggest room in the bungalow, and is kitted out with soft leather sofas and a television connected to Apple TV – doubtless an ideal room for tired kids to flop in after a day spent careering around the infamous Camber Sands dunes – we found ourselves gathered in the kitchen more than anywhere else. Socially focused, with a long wooden table at its centre and plenty of room for food preparation, every evening was spent around that table; a gaggle of good friends happily talking over each other and probably drinking just a bit too much wine. The interior follows suit seamlessly. Decorated in muted tones and with an immediate beachy feel what strikes you instantly is how light Sandways is. Painted white throughout and with grey wooden floorboards, all but one of the rooms has floor-to-ceiling French doors leading to the deckchair-laden decking outside and flooding the rooms with natural light. Having undergone a recent contemporary makeover, small touches of modern such as the industrial, brushed steel lighting that hangs in the kitchen, combine beautifully with retro accessories like the powder blue Roberts radio I spotted in the bedroom; nothing is forced, and nothing is too stylised either, so you feel perfectly within your rights to kick your shoes off and lounge around. Although I imagine, especially during the colder months, that you could happily while away a stay at Sandways moving no further than between the kitchen, the lounge and your bedroom, we did venture out into nearby Rye. No more than three miles walk away, along a country path that leads you straight into the pretty, centuries-old town, Rye is well worth a visit and strikes an interesting balance between more modern flourishes as seen in the independent homeware and food shops that line its beautifully clean streets, and the hugely atmospheric and historic – do not miss Mermaid Street, a quaint and cobbled thoroughfare that dates back to medieval times and is marked at one end by the Mermaid Inn, one of England's oldest inns with a rumoured resident ghost. Myself and the five girlfriends that joined me on our jaunt did do a fair bit of lounging around, of course; without the living alarm clock that is children and in an environment free from traffic, it's surprising how easily lie-ins come. Plus, the bedrooms are each a peaceful haven in their own right. The beds are very comfortable with crisp white sheets, soft feather duvets and plump pillows that you can really sink into as you gaze out at 60

Kittie747 is one of my favorite people to case - I think her work is AMAZING! I love her scenes- to me they are works of art. I drop in at her blog and yesterday she was offering Tuesday Treasure Hunt Rubbernecker Bucks for blog candy. To win you had to leave a comment on her blog telling her what craft tool you couldn't live without. For her....it would be a watercolor brush. A number of people talked about their cutting systems... and no kidding... it is a life saver. I can't cut a straight line so I don't think I would make cards without my rotary cutting system by Fiskars.
Okay, time for a ramble..... Last night I read the children's book the dot by Peter Reynolds. It is a great book with a wonderful message about encouraging art. There is a little girl, Vashti, who thinks that she can't draw anything. So her art teacher told her to "just make a mark and see where it takes you." So the little girl grabs a marker and stabs the paper with it. (I have been there!) The teacher looks at it and then has Vashti sign it. The next time she walks into art class her picture is framed in "swirly gold" and hung above the teacher's desk. And Vashti thinks to herself that she can make a better one. And off she goes to explore the dot with all kinds of art materials. She creates numerous compositions based on her original dot and is the hit of the art show. There is a little boy there admiring her work and in awe of Vashti. But he says that can't draw a straight line with a ruler. So she asks him to show her. And then she asks him to sign it.
Now how cool is that book? It is one to buy and have on the shelf for both my kids and myself. I encourage you to check it out at your library or local book store! End of ramble....
But everyone talked about their cutter so I thought about what I reach for in my craft cupboard (wish it were a door knob!) when I am going to make a project. I reach for my Tomboy tape thingy - another essential item when making cards, so quick and easy. But before I even do those things I usually am on the computer. Maybe it is a card sketch or a color challenge (waiting waiting waiting with baited breath for Kristina to upload her latest!) or I have a specific project in mind and I know that there are fantastic cards made for inspiration in some one's gallery, someone like Kittie747.
Anywho, I am off to go spend my Rubbernecker bucks... Yahoo!

Amy Ephron is the author of the book I gave a little review on. I don't know though, does she have lots more money than me? Kittie must have taken a quick look at the blog and thought that was me! I wrote her back and told her that Amy Ephron was NOT going to get MY blog candy! LOL

Lots to love at Love Food Café
Jamie Lorge is gardening on the pavement outside her Love Food café in Braamfontein. She has lavender and nasturtiums growing around the trunk of a tree, and a dozen pots.
"This is the downside to having a place next to a salon," she says, pulling out a clump of nylon entangled in the plants.
It's a tiny place, with half a dozen tables, some of which are on the pavement. Inside, there are stacks of records and a shelf of old books, and even a little bunting.
They serve breakfast and lunch mainly to the thousands of inner city office workers who are looking for quick and healthy meals.
Even if you're not eating, the coffee is something to behold, a single-origin varietal called Cameroon Kouoptamo.
Friday is burger day, and by mid-morning they're already bringing out bowls of lettuce, sliced red onion, pickles and a bowl of baked potato wedges for the early lunch trade.
The burgers (R50) are assembled on a big table in front of the diners, which means the server can shout out and ask what sauce you'd like.
The burgers are kept warm on plates on top of those hot serving trays that were so popular during the 1970s.
They are made with lean mince, coriander, parsley, mustard seeds, breadcrumbs, egg and cumin, and they look like nothing you'd find in McDonald's or Wimpy. They are tall, bursting out of the bun, with lots of sauce dripping out of it, and came with wedges and cheese.
I tried the vegetable burger, with lentils, chickpeas, grated beetroot, carrot and baby marrow, spiced with cumin, coriander, wholegrain mustard and bound with egg and flour. It was a little gluey, but quite comforting in that vegetarian sort of way.
It's a minute's walk from Wits and cash-strapped students often try their luck and engage in the time-honoured custom of ordering one burger and four sets of cutlery.
There is also a three (R34) or four (R44) salad lunch, which put equivalent dishes at more expensive restaurants — certainly to the north of Johannesburg — to shame.
On the day I visited, there was a juicy beetroot and butternut salad with a balsamic and sun-dried tomato sauce as well as a broccoli, pea and red lettuce salad. I had a large slice of the mac and cheese, which was exactly what it was supposed to be — plenty of cheese, not too dry, and quite tasty. This is heated up in a microwave.
They also do salmon fishcakes (R14 for two) bound with potato, with red onion, dill and spring onion.
The server is very friendly, asking one customer: "Haven't you been here before? I recognise the tattoo."
Love Food, 4 Ameshoff Street, Braamfontein. 083 602 6511

I was not a big fan by any stretch of the work of director David Russell. I liked The Fighter a lot, but I detested the second half of Silver Linings Playbook. I came the long way round to watching this recent critics' favorite. I was aware some months ago that Martin Scorsese was making a new movie called, The Wolf of Wall Street. I quickly got my hands on the book by the same name this movie is based. By the half way point, I was very disappointed splurging whatever I had to procure this garbage.
What didn't make sense to me was why Scorsese would put all his effort on promoting arguably one of the most vial, detesting and uninteresting characters in recent memory, that being Jordan Belfort. I had decided if The Wolf movie even closely resembled this scumbag's book, I would not pay to see it since I felt it a moral sacrilege to give my hard earn money to promoting his name in anyway shape or form. Criminals from Goodfellas I can understand, heck they were interesting and paid for their crimes. This guy Belfort as one reviewer put it, 'kills people's dreams – that's much more insidious'.
Don't worry there is a connection coming.
As I browsed reviews of The Wolf on Wall Street movie, I noticed an interesting connection in what people were writing about it and David Russell's, American Hustle. What was this Scorsese connection between the two? I had to find out. As I mentioned, David Russell's previous attempt Silver Linings Playbook didn't resonate well with me and I was unsure if American Hustle would live up to the hype. I wrote a review about Silver which you can find under my movie reviews here.
Anyone even remotely familiar with Scorsese cannot deny that David Russell has lent heavily from Scorsese's quintessential best movies to make American Hustle . The narratives, the music and editing, in particular the first half of the movie all point toward a seeming homage to Scorsese's 90's work, specifically Casino. Even De Niro makes a key entrance in a role so reminiscent of Casino wearing the same ginormous glasses Scorsese left us with in the final scene. Many have described that Russell has borrowed more from Goodfellas, but I don't see it as much I do with Casino. Borrowing and immersing material from populist culture is not new to David Russell's work. I noticed in Silver Linings how a lot of the writing involved character's spilling their theories on popular books, quoting from classic literature, recalling superstitious notions regarding football teams, blatant marketing of iPods and musings about the greatest music. It seemed as though Silver was more a satire or social commentary about how materialistic and consumer obsessed our society is.
There is no denying that Russell in his new movie, American Hustle has once again demonstrated his passion for heightening the senses regarding materialism and social trends given its almost perverse saturation of 1970's references. He tries so hard to draw his audiences in by fairly superficial materialistic means like the barrage of 1970's music, John Travolta dancing, the uncanny focus on men and women's hair styles, cleavage, drugs, money, quirkiness etc etc and of course that's fine, the movie is based in the 70's. But how much of it seems real? Does hearing Goodbye Yellow Brick Road in the middle of the movie connect with what we are seeing on screen or is it thrown in because it will strike a chord with audiences?
One could argue, the movie eventually does stand on its own two feet. Unlike Silver Linings which leads to an eventual Strictly Ballroom squeamish sequence, this movie does the opposite. It leads to some great plot twists which enhance the explosivity of the situations our protagonists find themselves. Thank God, it is not predictable. American Hustle eventually does becomes its own beast. The acting is very good. Christian Bale as always is exceptional and the female cast, Amy Adams worth noting is excellent. I liked her seductress ways in The Master as well. Their are a lot of comical undertones and at times in your face laugh out loud moments you might find yourself questioning, 'Should I actually be laughing at this'? Ironically, there isn't much physical action in this, but the script is so super solid you wonder how a director could screw this up. There were apparently lots of improvisation in this movie which undoubtedly enhanced its spontaneity and feel of realism. The cheeky manipulation and seductive powers of the female leads was expertly delivered and how the embattled men craved their scanty approval was almost the stuff of Shakespeare.
These are modern times and this movie is for modern audiences. I admired Russell's The Fighter because of it's originality and I detested Silver Linings Playbook for the exact opposite reason. But American Hustle broaches the two. Love and Theft I call it, like the title of Bob Dylan's 2001 classic album which also borrows heavily from other sources, but still stands up on its own as something quite fresh. Fresh, how? That's hard to place your finger on.

It's been 13 weeks since Harper was born, and god GOD has it gone quickly. It feels like I only had her yesterday... Well, time-wise at least - I don't still feel like I've been hit by a bus (thank heavens for small mercies). It's amazing how much she's changed since then though, because 13 weeks (3 months tomorrow in fact) really isn't that much time in the grand scheme of things.
In that time Harper has gone from being a tiny baby who pretty much cried, slept, ate and pooped, to a bigger baby who does all that still, but smiles, 'chats', grumbles, looks for her mummy and daddy and tries her damned hardest to roll back onto her back when she rolls on to her front (and then gets cross when she can't). She also tries to grab things now and very rarely misses - showing that she already has better hand-eye coordination than her clumsy mother.
Looking at her comparison pictures through the weeks is amazing, I can't believe how much she's grown and changed, it makes you realise that she's not going to look the same from one week to the next and as the days go by she is learning, growing and changing all the time. I've been meaning to put them all side-by-side for a few weeks, and now that I have it's hit me like a ton of bricks how much she's grown since day one, and though you don't see it in the pictures really, she's getting a little personality too. It's the best thing in the world to wake up to a cheeky smiling baby first thing in the morning, not so much when she realises that she's positively starving and starts screaming at you for her bottle!
At this point, we have a sort of routine established, but obviously her napping schedule is now a little unpredictable still, more-so now that she sleeps through the night. Sometimes she has sleepy days, other times she does. Not. Sleep. All. Day. Those are long days. Very, very long days because it's usually accompanied by a lot of whining because she's tired. She's so nosey though, that it sometimes gets the better of her, so much to look at, she couldn't possibly sleep!
Her 13 week picture and her 3 month picture are very similar this month, and that would be because I took them both today on account of her injections being tomorrow - she was poorly last week. So the 3 month picture will be posted at some point this week, it all just depends on how my little gets on with her vaccinations this time because she didn't like them at all last time (and neither did I!) In my next update I will be reviewing a beautiful handmade candle made by Kayleigh at Wyatt's Little Cavern, I've provided the link for you to go and check out in the meantime!

In Carson's debut thriller, terrorists behind recent airplane crashes make their next target a San Francisco lawyer whose class-action suit may be exposing too much about their operations.
It's Jack McManus' second uncle Joe Flaherty who gets the former Justice Department deputy attorney general involved in a trio of plane crashes. National Transportation Safety Board investigators designate pilot error as the cause for every crash, but Joe refuses to accept that his pilot son, Angus, who'd flown the first doomed flight, is responsible. Jack, now in private practice, joins the probe to clear Angus' reputation. But the safety board soon finds a pattern: the navigational systems for the aircrafts were feeding inaccurate information to the autopilots. Internet service provider SyriaNet is linked to heavy data traffic minutes before each crash. So Jack files a civil lawsuit, on behalf of Joe and the victims' families, against SyriaNet. Russian oligarch Ringo Rosselier, alias Hyacinth, meanwhile, is spearheading the attacks, working with the Muslim Brotherhood and computer genius Ahmed Munuza. Hyacinth's plan entails convincing U.S. citizens that an American political group is taking down the planes, but Jack's suit has Hyacinth more than a bit perturbed. Once Jack and Justice Department Deputy Attorney General Ernie Aftergood start looking at SyriaNet's head—Munuza—chances are good that a trail will lead back to Hyacinth, who may feel he needs someone to take care of Jack. This short novel is a quick read, with brief chapters and rapid-fire sequences, including Jack questioning witnesses on the stand. The protagonist is sympathetic, a widower who lost his wife, Mary, in a shooting at Berkeley. And Carson putting Jack in peril, as well as his kids, John and Maria, bolsters suspense. This happens a little late in the story, but Hyacinth, whom Carson identifies early, remains an unmistakable menace throughout. Story details are visually persuasive and sometimes spark olfactory senses, too: safety board investigator Frank Kobe is hit with odors at a wreckage site, including scorched rubber fuel cells, fabric, and human flesh.
A winsome protagonist who can pass for an action hero even in a courtroom.

Just wanted to let everyone know that our June meeting will feature Don Geiger. Don's demo will take up most of our 2 hour meeting, so we will have a very short club greeting and reports and get right into the demo. That means; No Show and Tell, No wood auction, and our club challenge will be pushed back to July. While I don't want to take away from the demo, I also don't want to take away from the time it will take for everyone to look and vote on the submitted works. So those that are ready, sorry, those that have procrastinated a reprieve. Look forward to seeing everyone! June 15, 2017 @ WoodCraft @ 7 pm.

When I was growing up, meal times were serious occasions. We were told to sit up straight, keep our elbows off the table, and under no circumstances could we ever play with our food. Thankfully, things are a lot more relaxed these days, and food is seen as art to be photographed worthy for our Instagram and Facebook profiles. Here are three simple and fun projects that allow your kids to get creative with their food.
Ham and cheese frog sandwiches | Makes 2 sandwiches
It's not easy being green, especially when you're a ham and cheese wholemeal sandwich! These easy to make froggy delights will have the kids jumping at the chance to eat their sandwiches.
You will need:
Using a circular cookie cutter, cut the bread, cheese and 2 of the ham slices into rounds. Build the frogs bodies by sandwiching the ham and cheese between the bread. Slice the ends off the cucumber and use it to create the eyes and slice the grapes in half and use as the eyeballs.
Slice 4 rounds off the cucumber and cut into frog legs and place under the frog bodies. Using the last slice of ham, fashion 2 long rolling frog tongues.
Underwater fishy fruit salad | Makes 1 fruit salad
The kids will have a lot of fun creating this fish tank on a plate. With blueberry bubbles and strawberry scales, it's a fruity sandwich treat that looks fantastic on a green or blue plate.
You will need:
Slice 1 piece of the bread into a triangle. Using the other slice of bread, fashion it into the fish body and save the end with the crusts attached for the fish tail.
Slice the tops off the strawberries, and using half a large strawberry place on the front end of the fish for its strawberry face. Slice a blueberry in half and use as the fish eye. Cut 4 to 5 strawberries into slices and arrange on the fish body as scales, leaving the tail scale free. Slice blueberries in half as bubbles and suing a stalk garlic chives, create some underwater grass.
Finally, use the tops of the strawberries and few more halved blueberries to create a rocky ocean floor.
Pineapple crocodile | Makes 1 large crocodile
We were told to never smile at a crocodile, but this yummy reptile is an exception to the rule! Sweet not salty, our pineapple friend is a great introduction for kids creating food art.
Slice the sides off the pineapple to create 4 parts off the crocodile. Lay the sides on to a large board or plate with the pineapple skin facing up and arrange the sides so they look like the body of a crocodile from its head to its pointy tail.
Slice the kiwis in half lengthways and cut claws out of the ends. Place the feet at either side of the body, front and back. Cut 2 slices from the radish and cut the grape in half.
Push two toothpicks into the back of the first piece of pineapple and place the radish on the picks. Secure two more toothpicks at the front of the radish and place the grapes on these picks for eyeballs.
If your pineapple came with its top, use as a tree for your billabong!

Indio, "the City of Festivals," is the municipal anchor for the Eastern Coachella Valley cities, including Coachella, Mecca, Salton City and Thermal. Indio is located east of Palm Springs, just past the city of La Quinta on the Highway 111 corridor.
One of the oldest cities in the Coachella Valley, Indio began as a railroad town, serving as the mid-way point for the Southern Pacific Railroad`s trek between Yuma, Arizona and Los Angeles. Indio quickly grew into an agricultural center due to its arid climate, year-round sunshine and the ability of local farmers to attain irrigational water through artesian wells and later via the Coachella Valley`s branch of the All-American Canal.
