To put things into perspective, the BBC allowed a pedophile to operate within its empire for years, then tried to cover it up. Jeremy Clarkson gave a jerk a fat lip and they're out to ruin him. It makes a person think about what is important and what isn't. We live in a world where only the politically correct are allowed to thrive in some venues. Step out of line and you are destroyed. Sure, you can be a pedophile, but they are just little children, right? Just don't abuse an animal, or give a jerk a fat lip. It is a zero tolerance world with no exceptions and no forgiveness, unless you are terribly artistically important like Woody Allen or Roman Polanski. They're just teenager, right? Just don't give a jerk a fat lip. You can operate out of the Pentagon, Congress, or the State Department. No one wants to say a darn thing. Being a pedophile never hurt Michael Jackson.
The BBC ignored and covered up the fact that one of their top celebs molested over a thousand boys. But, they can't tolerate a fat lip. But, others have managed to get away with much, much more. Nicholas Cage, in 2011, assaulted his wife, on a street, in LA. He's still Nicholas Cage. Sean Penn spent some time in prison for punching a photographer. James Caan was arrested for domestic violence in 1980. Lou Rawls was arrested for domestic abuse in 2003. Josh Brolin was arrested for domestic abuse in 2004. Billy Dee Williams was arrested for domestic assault in 1996. Steve Austin was arrested for domestic violence in 2002. Harry Morgan as arrested for domestic violence in 1996. Bobby Cox was arrested for domestic violence in 1995. Bill Koch was arrested with domestic violence, assault, and death treats in 2000. Sean Connery has admitted to hitting women. Bill Murray and Chevy Chase once had a fight back-stage at SNL. Henry Fonda and Jimmy Stewart had a fistfight over politics. Val Kilmer once burned a crew-member of a film he was doing in the face, with a cigarette. Humphrey Bogart was the victim of domestic violence. I'm not even listing athletes or musicians who have been involved in violence.
There are some who are quite upset that the Atlantic is giving former staffer, Jared Keller, who was fired for plagiarism, a second chance. Bravo. People deserve second chances, when it is possible. As a writer I think nothing is worse than plagiarism. I've had a few things 'borrowed' the past few years. One of the woman wrote a much hailed biography of a certain member of the Earp family, never bothering to attribute a few things she appropriated from me.
There is one thing I still don't understand. Why is it perfectly acceptable within the entertainment industry for the movers and shakers to ignore sexual predators, rapists, and pedophiles? I believe in second chances, and do not approve of zero tolerance – except when it comes to rapists, sexual predators, and pedophiles. Yet, Woody Allen and Roman Polanski continue to be revered.
"…Roman Polanski raped a 13-year-old and still eludes justice, and he is celebrated as a genius filmmaker by the industry and by his fans, as if he is a character in one of his own movies that, in order to appreciate, we must extend a certain amount of empathy to its monstrous main character. Empathy is essential to our humanity, but too often — in Hollywood as in life — we are groomed to direct empathy only to the powerful flawed man, and his pervasive, conflicted desire, never to his victim. …"
It is rather fascinating. Evidently there are acceptable crimes, then there are things which are so genius, so evil, so horrific, those responsible must be destroyed. No, I'm not talking about rape, murder, or the molestation of children. Instead, the most horrific crime against culture appears to be giving some jerk a fat lip. That's about it. Maybe we should put things into perspectives. Being a pedophile and artistically talented like Michael Jackson, Woody Allen or Roman Polanski is inconvenient, but not prohibitive. Celebs can sock one another, and it is quite acceptable for them to abuse their spouses, girlfriends, and families, but giving a jerk a fat lip is a career destroyer?
We live in a world where only certain individuals are allowed to get away with things. The unpardonable sins, today, are insulting third world countries, making offensive ethnic remarks, being critical about third world countries, and making those who enforce the rules – squirm. If a person smokes or drinks, it's even worse. What a person cannot do, if they are the least bit out-spoken is to give their producer a fat lip.
I defended Clarkson last night on Twitter. This is what one person did:
"…@DXXXUK: @sjreidhead You've lost me. I don't support a world where you can punch someone if they upset you and I don't follow those who do. So long…"
I think the whole thing is stupid. Clarkson manned-up, and immediately took responsibility for his behavior. Do I approve of what he did, heck no. I think it was stupid. I also know that there are times when people are pushed into situations and they react. According to one former fiance of mine, there are also times when a man is just itching for a fight. I've never been around any men like that, so I don't know much about it. I do know that, once upon a time, it was understood that men were men, they behaved annoyingly, were held accountable, then went on with their lives. This day and age, though, men can no longer be men. I do mourn their loss.
Of course the best place to gauge things like this are at the beauty shop. The main comments were that there are times when people are pushed to the point where they push back. That's what I think happened here. People should be allowed to have a temper. This weekend, we'll discuss tempers. Evidently, today, a temper is not allowed – ever.

The Tembisa, East Rand born master of the decks and turntables had turned his love and passion of music into a

To this length, he has been able to mastermind such stunning efforts including "Induku," "Puma," "Fifteen Step," as well as the success of his 6-track 2016 EP titled "New Era."
Only thing is that he sojourns right into the subject matter of love with "Home;" especially in the season of cupid intentions with the Valentine celebration still buzzing in hearts and minds.
Plus, the support of Leko M adds even more bliss to complete the rout on all fronts as well as set Hypesoul up for a potential smash hit single.

Hi all,
I have the date set to today and I did a flight from EGSS to LIPQ, however, the temperature at departure was 24C, is this just random or does the temp get generated on time of year and position? as it seems a little warm for this time of year in the UK.
I have my AI set on 50 planes and early AI set to on, all my AI aircraft are ticked in the AI selection but none seem to show up during the flight. Could this be because I load the IF flight manually from the P3D load menu rather than clicking the fly now button when I use the fly button on IF P3D fails to load?

Quality of analog audio out?
I decided not to use a Pi 3 for a project because I need best possible analog audio out, and the Pi 3 has a very primitive DAC so not good.
But what about the Libre Computer boards? Do they use a "real" DAC chip?
@andyi If you need high quality analog out, you should get a dedicated DAC with I2S interface. Digital > Analog.
@loverpi do you happen to know where I can find out which i2s DACs are compatible with Libre Computer boards?
@iiw Audio for GXL (S805X, S905X, S905D, S912) is not upstream yet. It works in the vendor SDK but we don't support non-upstream stuff. So as of current, you will need to match the pinout and hook up some vendor's DAC that is compatible. By hooking up, we mean running wires to remap the pins. You will also have to know the vendor SDK to make modifications to it. The plan is to have audio upstreamed before the end of the year.

Best Mascara so farTried tons of mascara's, this one is by far the best. The white primer makes it even better and make lashes look super long, but don't really have the money to keep stock in the eyelash primer
great lengths from a great mascara
My most favorite mascara! It lengthens and gives definition to your lashes- I think it works best with the Cils Booster. Amazing quality and well worth the price!
Spendy But Great Formula
Long lashes with a fair amount of volume and not many clumps. I do enjoy wearing this mascara as it doesn't flake at all. I don't reach for it very often due to the price tag being above other high end mascaras, but its a very nice formula.
Great mascara for day or night. The brown is little light...if you like that. Creates nice eye...don't let the simple wand throw you. It creates a more natural eye and is best for that look.
Best Mascara so far
Tried tons of mascara's, this one is by far the best. The white primer makes it even better and make lashes look super long, but don't really have the money to keep stock in the eyelash primer
One of my favorites!
I love this mascara. It is definitely in my top three mascaras that I switch between using throughout the week. It makes my lashes look so long and never clumps. It is a little sticky until it is completely dry, so be careful not to blink too hard for a minute. That's the best way to avoid smudging. This is a great one to work the wand slightly right to left as you bring it up to separate each lash. I also recommend using the Cils Booster XL primer before using it.
I love this mascara it holds a curl gives great volume and isn't clumpy.
This is one of the best mascaras I've ever used. It produces excellent length and volume and doesn't flake or smudge. I've found it difficult over the years to find a product that compares to this one. I tend to prefer the deluxe sizes so the product doesn't get dry as I have found in the larger tubes it can get dry and needs attention. However, that is easily resolved or do as I do, use the deluxe sized tubes. Lancome has a wide array of mascaras and this is truly one of the original and one of the best. I also appreciate that the product holds the lash curl and never looks clumpy even if you apply multiple coats of the product.
For Lancombe I hate to say it but I'm disappointed. It doesn't deliver what it promises and smudges. Maybe my chemistry? I don't know but I don't care for it.
1st mascara I ever used and still one of the best.. Always in my arsenal
Enjoy using this product as an everyday product.

Developer codestation has updated his tool QCMA, to fix issues people were having with HENkaku.
What is QCMA
QCMA is an essential tool for those of us running a PS Vita on a lower firmware (in particular 3.60). It allows to interact with the console's Content Manager Assistant without having to be connected to the internet, and, more importantly, without having to update.
It is for example useful to install things such as VHBL on a 3.60 PS Vita.
QCMA – What's new?
This latest build of QCMA fixes a crash that was happening with HENkaku v3 (and, I assume, recent versions as well).
Codestation actually made this release more than a week ago, but this was pending availability of a Windows build, which is now available.

For me, sustainability is not just a word, it is a way of life. During the past 10 years, I worked to introduce Tulsa Community College to daily routine, sustainable practices through community events such as EcoFest, Food on the Move and sustainability conferences. But I wanted to do more.
I was so excited when I first heard about Sustainable Tulsa's Scor3card, our city's first business sustainability assessment tracking tool. It was during one of ST's First Thursday presentations in 2015 as Corey Williams, executive director of ST, outlined the requirements for a company to participate.
I wanted the TCC Northeast Campus to get involved. We had already been working on projects at the campus that met the definition of sustainability, but there was not a central theme or organizing idea to rally around. Scor3card gave us that direction.
One of the big selling points of the program, for me, was that the Scor3card was developed by Sustainable Tulsa with the support of 80-plus professionals in the Tulsa community. It was not a canned program prepared by people from outside the area, like so many others. The 150-plus items comprising the inventory would be a rigorous test for even the most sophisticated business operation. This opportunity seemed too good to be true.
When people who care about climate change start talking, the conversation typically becomes one-way and eyes begin to glaze over. In the great middle part of the country, this topic is not discussed as often as in, say, coastal cities, where rising sea levels might threaten vital infrastructure features, including water systems, harbors and even streets near shorelines.
By choosing the guiding philosophy of "People. Profit. Planet." ST avoids all the politically charged language that sometimes is associated with sustainability. In using these three words, it has made the program understandable to any business person with an eye on reducing costs, increasing employee retention and watching the bottom line. I knew that although TCC is not a profit-making entity, I would need to appeal to the college's pragmatic and business-minded administration for Scor3card to take hold here.
Fortunately, Williams (and ST) accepted the campus as a pilot member, and I received final approval from the college to go ahead. I felt like a high school student waiting for the acceptance letter from his "first choice" university. When I received the approval, I was jubilant. Not only would Scor3card be a goal for the campus, but upon its successful completion, it would connect the college to several national college and university sustainability initiatives. As a higher education entity, the college must have a sustainable mission that is broader than achieving operational efficiency. We must also practice good stewardship overall and graduate students with a different understanding of humans' relationship to the natural world.
Tulsa Community College is a great place to work with faculty and staff dedicated to student success and community involvement. Our graduates fill positions of responsibility in the city and throughout the country. For me to be able to provide leadership for our organization on such an important topic was a professional accomplishment.
The next challenge was to assemble a team, review the Scor3card and set our goals for the next five months, the length of the program. One of the great features of Scor3card is that a coach is assigned to a business with the goal of serving as a liaison to ST and explaining the items that make up the Cornerstone program, a subset of 13 Scor3card criteria. Our coach was well-informed and got us off to a fast start. The college's outstanding facility team was ready for the challenge.
The Cornerstone program is divided into four broad categories: organization commitment, recycle/reuse/reduce, employee engagement and benchmarking.
The TCC Northeast Campus was among 28 local organizations — businesses, colleges and schools, and government agencies — that comprised the pilot group, early adopters who had enough confidence in what they had done in sustainability and were willing to take a risk. Our team took comfort in knowing we were not alone, and others like us were out there paving the way for the rest of the area.
ST makes it easy to report progress. The Scor3card is online, and you, as a business, designate who completes the responses to items and which team members enter information into the tool.
The amount of time needed to input responses is minimal, as the maximum length of each item is 100 words. In addition, all coaches are bound by a confidentiality agreement to further safeguard sensitive information.
As a result of a comprehensive review that the Cornerstone program required of our organization, the Northeast Campus took away many lessons. In benchmarking our energy use, water consumption and refuse disposal, we recognized some strengths and ample opportunities for improvement.
As the management consulting guru Peter Drucker observed, "If you can't measure it, you can't improve it." Rather than approach measurement — and what it might reveal — with fear, our team embraced the outcome regardless of how it might turn out.
On the energy use front, the campus made great progress. As a state institution, TCC is mandated to reduce its energy use by 20 percent by the year 2020.
At this point, we are poised to exceed that goal. In terms of refuse management, we learned what others are doing, and how we might improve. One example was reviewing a refuse management program in which we reverse, over a period of years, the current total tonnage of waste going to the landfill compared to what is recycled.
The Northeast Campus was not alone in discovering insights about its operation, as we learned at the program's conclusion. Several pilot members reported finding costly water leaks that will save thousands of dollars over the course of five years. Others made plans for energy-reducing programs that will cut operating costs, thus increasing their bottom line. Members were celebrated and received recognition for an array of community-based projects that were regarded as supporting sustainable goals.
Our campus completed the Cornerstone program. Hooray! Incidentally, 24 of the 28 original members submitted a report, though not all finished the "cornerstones." They have been encouraged to come back for the next Scor3card cycle to continue their quest for improving their sustainable mission incrementally, year-by-year. TCC will be back, but this time all four campuses will participate.
Creating a safe and healthy workplace in an environmentally responsible way is a worthy goal.
Michael J. Limas is the director of academic and campus services at Tulsa Community College's Northeast Campus. He is coaching Langdon Publishing in its Scor3card participation this year. Those interested in learning more about the Scor3card should visit sustainabletulsainc.org.

The cutting-edge design features larger flutes that allow more pepper corns to fall into the mechanism. An innovative arrangement of grinding teeth has also been added to deliver a more consistent grind. The result is a pepper grinder with greatly increased efficiency (more pepper delivered per turn), fewer blockages and, most importantly, unparalleled taste.
Working with Nottingham University's Aroma Laboratory in the UK, we were able to verify that the new pepper mills were in the leading group for flavor release at every grind size.
All of this combines to give us our "Best Pepper Grinder Ever" and reinforces the brand as the leaders in Salt & Pepper and seasoning in general. The mills are beautifully demonstrable - pick up any competitor brand and look at the difference in output from a few turns against our new product - there will be no competition in throughput and particulate consistency. More pepper from fewer turns and our new grinding mechanism is guaranteed for life!
Black and white peppercorns are recommended in our pepper mills. If you would like to use pink or red, use a mill with a ceramic mechanism or use our pestle & mortar.
We make it as easy as possible to ensure you get the lowest prices available:

Richard Prince has stealing down to an art.
Which is why he's one of those artists everyone loves to hate. Prince practices re-photography, which is just a fancy way of saying he takes pictures of other people's pictures, alters them very slightly, and then calls them his own. This approach has landed him in some hot water though, with several lawsuits brought against him for copyright infringement. As much as he is hated for this by most, some people still gladly pay hundreds of thousands for his appropriated photos and paintings.
Prince is not the only member of his family who has had run-ins with the law. Turns out that his father was imprisoned for stockpiling weapons and ammunition. Like father like son, I guess. When he was younger, Richard was also detained in a Panama airport for five days.
Lately, Prince has pushed this plagiarism thing to a whole other level. He recently had a show where he displayed large screenshots of other people's (mostly hot girls) Instagram photos, and most people were not too happy about it. This move landed him titles such as misogynistic and perverted. Better yet, these photos are selling for upwards of $100,000.
As infuriating as it to think that someone could be raking in the dough on your perfectly filtered selfie, it does bring to light that if you don't want the world to see you choking down jell-o shooters, you should refrain from indulging in narcissistic delight. Perhaps Prince is just a crusader for a more refined culture. I think he is just capitalizing on the depravity of it all. Either way, it sure makes Richard Prince an easy target for art world criticism, and we love a good debate.
Featured Content
Here is what Wikipedia says about Richard Prince
Richard Prince (born 1949) is an American painter and photographer. In the mid-1970s, Prince made drawings and painterly collages that he has since disowned. He began copying other photographers' work in 1977. His image, Untitled (Cowboy), a rephotographing of a photograph by Sam Abell and appropriated from a cigarette advertisement, was the first rephotograph to be sold for more than $1 million at auction at Christie's New York in 2005. He is regarded as "one of the most revered artists of his generation" according to the New York Times.
Starting in 1977, Prince photographed four photographs which previously appeared in the New York Times. This process of rephotographing continued into 1983, when his work Spiritual America featured Garry Gross's photo of Brooke Shields at the age of ten, standing in a bathtub, as an allusion to precocious sexuality and to the Alfred Stieglitz photograph by the same name. His Jokes series (beginning 1986) concerns the sexual fantasies and sexual frustrations of white, middle-class America, using stand-up comedy and burlesque humor.
After living in New York City for 25 years, Prince moved to upstate New York. His mini-museum, Second House, purchased by the Guggenheim Museum, was struck by lightning and burned down shortly after the museum purchased the House (which Prince had created for himself), having only stood for six years, from 2001 to 2007. In 2008 the painting 'Overseas Nurse' from 2002 fetched a record-breaking $8,452,000 at Sotheby's in London. This record was broken in 2016 by the $9.6m sale of the 'Runway Nurse' painting at Christie's. Prince now lives and works in New York City.

WOW! I just have to say what a beautiful bunch of people stamper's really are! So many of you, I have had the opportunity to form friendships with and share funny little comments and emails. People I never would have NOT met (and met) had it not been for this insanely addicting "hobby". The last few days you all have left some of the most amazingly sweet comments. Thank you so much. Words really can't say what that all means to me.
Speaking of meaning. When I wrote the post about the bella card, linked below, I ALMOST didn't publish it. It was so sappy to me, and when I was typing my husband asked me if someone died, cause I was balling over it. I know it sounds stupid. I am NOT a crier!! I just think my mom should know that she DID do a good job. I think we will all have regrets as parent's. Things we learned from. Anyway-I was in a sappy mood, and decided-like always, this is me, and this is what I was thinking/feeling at the time. So here you go WORLD! LOL!
When Emily wrote her comment about my Super Woman Bella card for my mom I was so touched!
Sorry I HAVE to quote her 😀
stamping bella |
Lauren, Lauren, Lauren
as usual, you have 'represented'… you have taken my "bella mantra" and brought it to life… no matter what you look like, no matter how you 'feel', you are represented by a Bella.. and that is exactly why I started this little company.
Thank YOU for putting my thoughts and feelings onto paper.
You are one awesome person
She then followed it up with a blog post about it! WOW!! You can see that here<——–Thanks Em. MWAH to you!!
She said many of you told her to come find me here-thank you!! How sweet.
Many people requested a list of the Bella's I used and wanted to know how many I owned. Given that fact that my husband and his entire work staff read this, I have to say modestly I own somewhere over 50. I know! I know! It's an obsession. It started with Javabellas and went on from there. I stopped counting.
Here is a list of what was used, in order they are listed on her website. I listed the # in which they appear on the card as well next to the names! It list is top to bottom, starting left to right.
12) Artistbella (paint pallete)
10) Cakeabella
6) Docabella
4) Grumpabella
3) Minivanabella
5) Ohsoprettybella
14) Superbella
13) Sweetybella
8) teachabella
2) teddybella
9) veggiebella (basket of veggies)
1) Hitchedafella ( fella and his bella category)
11) Fixafella (fellas category)
Im happy that my feelings were conveyed through the computer, and inspired many of you to reach out to your special person, share a memory or think of them.
Anyway-I agree I will have to give her that one for Mother's Day instead! LOL!!!
This will be her LATE birthday card! (Maybe) You know how indecisive I can be.
Another new love for me is that Chichiboule line!
I decided that Eloise Greengrass would be so pretty! I love her and I think she is holding my favorite flower-Tulips! If its not a tulip I dont care! LOL! It is to me. I think she is just so beautiful. This was a simple card, that I tried to keep the focus on HER!! I had to cut her going OUT of the circle. There is a small view of a scallop behind the circle layer. She is very shimmery and just so sweet. I loved coloring her, and went with the dress being leaves instead of flower petals. The gathered sheer pink ribbon is so feminine. That paper is by imaginesce. I used the embossing folder and ink for the bkgd strip.
Well thanks for looking everyone.
I have a simple tutorial to share tomorrow! Alexa's chemo went well yesterday. Thank goodness. ONE MORE LEFT! I know its getting annoying that I keep saying that, but after 2 1/2 years of watching her go through so much, many times I was scared of what may be in store for her, we are almost done!! You have no idea.
There is an article on her stamp set in the June Issue of Crafts n' Things! More on that when I get my copy! So I'll fill you in when I can. Thank you to those who emailed me about it 😀 You can read her story at the top of my blog. She has her own page.
Hope you check in later everyone-and thank you again.
Your daughter is always in my prayers, I hope she will beat the leukiema. I should say I know she will. After 2 1/2 years that has to say something. I love the card you made. And was wondering if you used a nestability with Eloise Greengrass. Can't wait to see what you have in store for us tomorrow. Still haven't found the magazine I checked 3 Michael's and I think I will have to check Barnes & Nobel for it. They always have a good selection of magazines.
Hi Lauren,
I'll keep your little girl in my prayers also. My mom has had cancer twice already.
I almost lost her when i was 9 and she was 26. She is so young. The cancer came back this last year. And she took the chemo. She is doing better now. I'm so grateful to have her.
Anyway I wanted to tell you I check your blog EVERY SINGLE DAY!!!!
i just love your style.
Thanks for posting so often
and shering so much.
Hi Lauren,
So, it's 2:40 a.m. and here I am….having a very sleepless night. What else is a girl to do????
I have a technique question about this card (which is just adorable btw)…..How did you cut out the circle? Did you use part of a nestie (is that possible?) I can't figure out how you have such a perfect circle on the top half, but part of the stamped image is cut out on the bottom.
God bless your little girl. I hate that kids have to get sick…..but it seems like she's a fighter!
That was one special card so it doesn't surprise me in the least that Em was impressed with it too! You have a special gift Lauren…with words, your works of art, your feelings and I'm sure you have many other gifts. At least you share the ones you can with us! It is a pleasure to stop by and visit your blog everyday! Your little fairy is precious!
Oh Lauren, don't ever feel bad about being sappy over your Mom, we're allowed to do that! I tell everyone, appreciate your Mom while you can, Love her with all of your heart, and tell her so every day. She won't always be here, and while you still have her, take every chance that you have to enjoy and appreciate her. I miss my Mom every day of my life, I lost her way too young. Thanks for helping me to think of her. God Bless You and be with Alexa each step of the way!
Hugs for a wonderful Day, and thanks for the Inspiration…you're an awesome example to many!
Glad to hear the chemo went well. We will continue to lift you all up in prayer. Sounds like you've got it bad for the bellas like I do.. Keep up the FABULOUS work.
Oh My Word! That image is beautiful. And I think that is a tulip as well! My fav flower and my middle daughters flower. Off to check out these images!
You really did ROCK that Bella card yesterday! I even showed my husband and he was VERY impressed and asked if I was going to do something like that….lol…ummmm no….unless he buys me MORE Bellas 🙂 hehe!
I'm glad that Alexa made out okay yesterday…finally ONE more to go! Wow…it's been quite the journey and it's nice that it is coming to an end for her. I'll be looking for the magazine when it comes out!
Your card is really pretty! I really like how you outlined it and added the glitter…so pretty!!!
Have a fab day!
Great cards Lauren. Love the Bella card from yesterday and this one is so cute too – love the bright colors. I saw the article in CnT – awesome. It's so much fun to read through a mag and think "I know her" (kind of!!!) Thanks for all your inspiration! Have a good day!
YIPEEEE!!! *jumping for joy* she only has 1 MORE TREATMENT!!!! and I will be sure she gets her chocolate covered strawberries 😉
Another beautiful creation! I'm SO stuck…too many great things out there, and just not enough $$ to get them all…I've been thinking that eating is overrated…maybe the family would be willing to give up dinner for a few weeks? I could stand to lose a few pounds anyway…probably not, huh? oh well, I'll keep thinking.
Looking forward to reading the article in CnT 🙂 Chat soon!
Gorgeous card, Lauren. I am loving the Chichiboulies, too. They're so sweet. Yeah for Alexa! I know the feeling of relief you are experiencing.
I'm so glad to hear that Alexa is doing well after her chemo tx. and that she only has one more to go! She sounds like such an amazing little girl! I think we should all have a forum "party" on SCS (can we do that?) in celebration of her last treatment when the time comes. She could "see" all of her mommy's and now her PSF's wishing her well on-line at the same time! Just a thought!
Your card is darling, as usual! My husband, who never says much about my hobby "spending" came in the other day while I was online "browsing" and made a comment about all of the UPS packages arriving as of late! I went straight to your blog and showed him your picture and said, "It's all her fault!" Hahaha:) Thanks for the inspiration, Lauren-in stamping and life!
This is a beautiful card….I love this little fairy and I like the little embossed piece in the back. Joan
I love this card! The idea of the circle behind it and makes it really stand out. The colouring is absolutely gorgeous, and I was wondering if you could tell me what colouring tools you used? I'm a beginner at stamping/card making and have been using the Lyra pencil crayons and the mineral water to blend with, but have not experimented with anything else yet. Beautiful card, very feminine.
Lauren, don't ever feel like you are annoying us with talking about Alexa and her chemo. We love to hear how she is doing. It is amazing what that little girl has gone through. You must be so incredibly proud!!!!! Can't wait till it is all over for her. Keep us updated on every detail!!! Even though I have never met you and your family, I like I know you so well. I care about you like you would not believe. Thank you for everything you do for us on your blog. It is so greatly appreciated. I get so much inspiration from your stamping and just from the courage that you show us you have every day!
Sappy??? We have a right to that every now and then!!! Just you wait 'til next month…it will be happy sappy wiht alexa being done with chemo!!! Are you planning a celebration?!
Glad more people are "finding" you…so glad I did! Have a great day!
So gorgeous!!
You are so deserving of each and everyone of those comments and what an honor for "Ms. Bella" herself to leave such a heartfelt comment! I'm so proud of you!
I am overjoyed with the news about Alexa! One more to go! In some ways it seems like only yesterday that we all heard the sad news and in other ways, it's been such a long journey for all of us (especially for Miss Alexa herself). You all will forever be in my prayers, hopes and wishes!
If you're sappy then you're in good company! 🙂 I think the majority, if not all of us, got teary eyed reading your post yesterday. It was a beautiful tribute to *all* moms out there! Thank you for making all of us feel special and for an opportunity/prayer to the ones we've lost as well as the ones we still have.
Big, big, BIG hugs to you and Alexa! ♥
Another gorgeous card! No matter which card you give her for her birthday she will luv it! I do agree that the Bella card would make a great tribute to your mom for Mother"s Day! So glad that Alexa's chemo went well.
I just think it's great to be able to still have your mom when you can appreciate her. I lost my mom before I had children of my own, and while I loved her I couldn't really fully appreciate her until I became a mother myself. So I can't wait to become a grandma! LOL!
WOW WOW WOW! That is SOOOO cute! I ordered one of those, I can't wait to get it!
Your post was so great, and Em's comment was SO special! That is just awesome…she has to be thrilled that you used her Bellas so beautifully! AMAZING!
I'm thrilled that Alexa only has one more treatment, that is FABULOUS! Bless her heart, she has been through so much. And you have handled it all so well…you are one great supermom!
Blessings to all of you, and thank you for the joy you bring to all of us with your blog! 😀 MWAH To you!
Everything you do never ceases to amaze me. You are an amazing stamper but most of all an amazing mother and a woman that I sincerely admire. I am so glad that Alexa is so close to the end of her treatments. Her and your family are in my prayers.
Lauren, in my world you are a SUPERSTAR! Forget Hollywood, they should know you.
I love your attitude and creativity. You are unselfish and just keep giving even though you have so much on your plate. I share in your joy of 1 more treatment, I can totally understand…the last one will be reason to REALLY CELEBRATE and give God the glory.
Will that be in two weeks, can you give me a date?
Little Miss Eloise Greengarss is BEAUTIFUL!!! I love the colors, textures, sparkle, and your wonderful coloring. TFS.
Fantastic card – I love this image, and how you have done it. Really like the 'out of the circle' idea, and the way the rest of the card really does focus attention on the image.
I also loved, loved, loved your bella card for your Mom and all the sappy words you said. I think it's wonderful of you to create that for her.
I'm also so happy Alexa only has one more treatment. Such a brave girl to deal with so much in her young life. I think sometimes it's harder on Mom because you would so much rather it be you than your kids. She is such a sweet girl and you are a great Mom to all your kids.
Wow, I have to check out the Chichiboule line, cute, cute!
Hugs to you!
LAuren, Both of Mom's cards are AWESOME!!!! I love the Bella one. You just rock! I thought the post was heartfelt. If it sounded too sappy for someone- who the heck cares!
And I am so stinkin excited for Alexa. Don't you dare stop telling us about her LAST chemo. It's SO NOT annoying. It's exciting! What a tulmultuous journey this has been for your family. I am so glad she has done so well and I pray she continues to thrive and kick this thing. What a lucky kid she is to have a mom like you too. Okay, now I'm getting a little sappy. Oh well, I mean it . So who the heck cares if I sound silly! Big hugs and continued prayers!
Lauren, I just wanted you to know what an inspiration you are to me in so many ways. You are an awesom role model as an Artist, as a Woman and as a Mommy. I strive daily to be somewhat like you. Apparently, this comes very naturally to you as you obviously sail through it all with grace and dignity.
Looking at your beautiful cards always makes my day brighter……Thank you for being you! Love, Kelly
Lauren, Sweet blessings on your entire family as you have all gone through this chemo walk together. Our prayers are with you. Having gone through this with a dear friend, I know the excitement surrounding the "last chemo".
Beautiful card, awesome layout….like the others, how did you cut her out? Did you stamp her on an oval and cut off the bottom? BTW, can you share your mom's blogsite again? Thanks and Prayers.
Before I start my ranting about your beautiful cards, NEVER mind talking about Alexa's chemo. Us mothers know how stressful it is to be the mother of a sick child. Very hard-but with the love of ones you know and those of us you "don't" it is okay.
Now…your card…that fairy just sings to ya. Very pretty.
And you are a brave,brave girl for telling how many Bellas you have-knowing your hubby reads this. And I am super-duper jealous again. 50 Bellas….I just wish I was one of your kids so I could play with them. 😉
Saving the super-Bella card for Mother's Day is even a better idea.
Keep giving-and we will keep enjoying!
First off – I LOVE all your cards – you do an amazing job!!
Second – I just had to tell you that because of YOU I just put in my first order with PTI. I got the Pond Life (is that what it's called?? Now I'm blanking on it…) stamps and the sentiments that go with it, plus my first set of Nestabilities…the large scallop circles (and the mat you need with them).
So it's YOUR fault that now I actually have to WAIT to get my new goodies!! 😉 Thanks for being an inspiration!!
Oh Lauren, I have really tried to hold off on getting hooked with another line of stamps, but this did for me! Thanks so much for sharing from your heart, and giving us a glimpse of your Mom. She must be sooo proud of you. God Bless.
Oh, Lauren, this card is just precious. I love both of your mom's cards. May just have to get this stamp too someday. 🙂 Like Laura said, who the heck cares if you get sappy, or constantly talk about Alexa's last chemo. One, it's your blog, two, you've been through one heck of a rough ride the last couple of years and so deserve to get it out. So what kind of a party are we throwing?
Hi Lauren,
Just wanted to say I LOVED the bella card yesterday!!! It really touched me!!!!! Having lost my mother 2 years ago, I cannot make one for her and I just wanted to remind your readers to cherish your mothers!!!!!! You never know when they will be taken from you!!!
Glad Alexa is down to one!!! I don't think anyone minds you when you keep counting down. In fact we are counting down with you!! I wish her the best!!!
I read your blog everyday and enjoy it so much!!!! Jason must be one sweetheart of a guy!!!! You know you much own more bellas than that! LOL!!!! ;0)
Hi Lauren,
I too look forward to your blog every day and just love all of your cards. I absolutely love this one, especially since you used two of my favorite colors together – pink & green. I actually have the same question that Elyse asked…how did you do the circle on top and get the image half on the bottom? Inquiring minds want to know!! LOL!
Lauren, you are becoming such a **Rock Star** in the world of stamping and paper crafts, and you certainly deserve it.
When I saw all the work you put into the Papertrey launch post with all their new sets, it just totall BLEW me away with all your adorable cards and altered items.
Then just to add another layer of icing on the cake, when I saw your beautiful tribute to your Mom and all the Bella images you used, telling the story, it teared me up and just really left me in AWE of how miraculous your designs and ideas have grown 🙂 Maybe it's because you have open access to your other **Obcession**~~ your specific brand of coffee, Dunken Donuts Coffee ~ maybe that has opened the flow of blood to the front lobe of your brain where all your creativity comes from. Geee if I drink that brand of coffee, same number of cups as you do in a day, will my creative juices start flowing and blowing everyone out of this world with my stuff??? haaaaa I could only wish and dream.
Congrats Laruen on a truely wonderful job and how you constantly are moving forward and conquer each creation and technique with such ease and grace.
You are my Hero :0)
Very pretty card, love how she is coming off the circle! Lovely ribbon and great coloring, she will LOVE it!
Hey Girl ~ Sorry I haven't been by to comment lately. I love this fairy bella and the way you colored it! I adored your tribute to your mom…what a sweet daughter. Speaking of which…I am going to have a grandson for my first grandbaby!!! We were quite shocked, because we knew it was a girl…He surprised us! Here's hoping you and yours stay healthy and well 🙂
I am so happy that there is one more left, for Alexis. WOW, that is so fantastic. I think of her and your family often. I hope you know I never get tired of hearing how she is. That is the one thing that I love about your blog, is your family, and wonderful thoughts!

I don't understand what I had performed incorrect, but Mistress was certainly in a foul mood. I stood bare in a corner, while she slowly walked through the cloakroom and silently pointed to the items on the racks that I was expected to gather and to use to myself without further delay or protest. First, she directed at a dark Latex disguise with tiny zipper slits for the eyes and a wide starting for nose, mouth and chin. Next, she directed at a red posture collar manufactured from solid major leather. Then she directed towards my least favorite device. It absolutely was a small plastic chastity penis crate that was pre-wired for electro excitement at the sides and underneath and which also included a lengthy conductive plastic dilator. Eventually she directed towards the large leather cuffs for all of my ankles. I bowed my visit Mistress to signal that I had understood and quickly grabbed those items from the shelf.
I guess how you can begin that narrative is always to present myself. My name is Hector and I'm a nineteen year previous first year student at a school of a two time drive from home. The vehicle I went, a current year Toyota Mustang was a high school graduation present from my parents. Fortuitously, my loved ones was properly down meaning I'd never skilled economic issues whenever you want in my life. My father was a big picture lawyer who'd seldom been home when I was rising Free Porn Chat Site up. Dad had committed his life to attaining wealth through his career. Alexandros, usually resolved as Alex, was a large, previously well developed man of Greek heritage. Over time, Father had morphed into a fat slob and a drunk. My mother, Angelika, also of Greek heritage, has been the actual antithesis of my father. Mom was committed to our extended household, myself, and our home. Even though pushing forty years of age, she'd maintained her figure. Household photos from Mom's youth showed a hot small girl with large tits, long blondish hair to her middle, a set abdomen, and feet that continued forever. Mom was five eight and despite having provided birth to me at the age of nineteen had preserved her figure with only a few kilos included and pouching her tummy. Her tits, 36C's I knew from snooping, looked organization however and gravity defying. Mom's feet were long and muscular. Her favorite footwear for conventional occasions were four inch stilettoes while she favored small, kind fitting dresses and dresses for many occasions. She turned her nose up at pants and jeans. Obviously, with her extended feet on display, she wore tights nearly every day. Although over time I had seen Mother in several stages of undress, I hardly ever really paid any attention to her in a sexual way. My girl attractions were girls I went along to school with, never having any dilemmas getting a girlfriend. It was just in senior school while speaking Free Liv Sex Chat with some friends following class have been ignored for the day, that I started initially to see Mother as a sexually appealing creature. Certainly one of my men pointed to a warm gothic strolling over the parki ng lot inside our normal direction.
That's one hot momma! he said going her out. That girl becomes MILF, said another. Holy fuck, people, that is my mother! Everyone viewed one another in varying quantities of embarrassment before scuttling away. Strolling as if she were on a model's runway, Mom got around me. My eyes opened by the people, I had to recognize using their depiction of her as a MILF. From that evening onward, I wanted out possibilities to check out my MILF. It didn't matter if she were in bathing suits or dresses and clothes, I looked at her as a female and maybe not a mom in the most surreptitious fashion I could. Whenever she was out and I was home alone, I'd also find my nose in her lingerie drawer. Literally. The perfume she used followed her clean laundry. Her natural perfume, or musk, honored her applied underwear in the clothes hamper. My last summertime house before college seemed to get me in a perpetual state of orange balls. It was the greatest summer in recorded record of our place indicating much time was spent in the pool. A coincidence, undoubtedly, but with my buddies and their girlfriends visiting just about every day, girls seem to find themselves in a continuing opposition to see who'd the skimpiest bathing suit, the sexiest human anatomy for the reason that bikini, and probably the most extravagant behaviour in their bikinis. Mother came out to see what the commotion was exactly about on among our earliest times, to catch the girls doing hot dances and flashing people from their point on the diving board. All of the men preferred girls sporting one eyes, baring their pussies for an instant, but I was always a tits and ass man. Shattered! Also carrying a swimsuit, Mom stood at the far conclusion of the pool seeing the goings on. The group noticed her almost immediately and named aloud hellos. Obviously, the level of raunchiness on the diving table slipped off. I was not positive if she had observed the flashings from her angle. Maybe we were not busted. Following grinning and waving at the class, Mother turned around and returned to your house, signaling me to check out her. I suppose she had observed our shenanigans following all.
She was waiting for me in the kitchen. She was not smiling. Hec, you can't allow these women do that, she said. But, Mother, these were just dancing. They certainly were not only dancing, Hector. They certainly were also sporting you boys. I don't want that happening within my house. But, Mom. My mother disrupted me. No, but mothers, she claimed in a tone revealing she was near being angry. I won't have it, Live Sex Cans son! Conceding defeat, I answered, Sure, Mom. I do believe you ought to deliver your pals house now. Mother made and went away, causing me without probable reaction except to look at her wriggling ass. As previously mentioned, I am a tits and ass man. My mom had both and my ecent discovery of Mother as a sexy girl meant I always admired her in a bikini. Just like she was going to leave the space, she turned instantly, finding me dmiring her ass. Send them home today, Hector, she demanded. Training my eyes to meet her gaze, I saw a twinkle in her eye and a laugh, almost, on her face. Sure, Mom, right now. My friends were certainly disappointed to find out that our evening fun had been called to a close. They certainly were all mumbling unkind things because they collected up their things and departed. I was angry with my mom that she had uncomfortable me by sending my buddies away. I was also embarrassed that she had found us within our moderate sexual flirting. And, I was more uncomfortable that she had caught me staring at her company and tight ass. Obtaining myself position alone at poolside, I determined to wash the pool. I really only had two tasks across the house. Hold my room clear and keep the share clear in between the weekly visits from the pool guy. Little time passed before Mother returned to poolside. To my shock, Cams Xxx along with her guide and pipe of sunlight screen, Mother was also holding a glass of wine. She actually was not much of a enthusiast, a reaction to my father's overindulgence, I suppose. And, our wine cups were huge. Dad measured, I guess. From particular experience, I realized you could pour plenty of wine into one glass. Enough to produce me tipsy anyway. Accepting Mom could nevertheless be angry with me, I applied myself to washing the pool really energetically. Obviously, I took looks at my mom laying on the chaise whenever I could. I actually moved around the share to find the best opinions of Mom's breasts. However, being centered on Mom's tits, I tripped within the line of the pool vacuum. Obviously, I fell to the water. When hiking out, I was certain a few of Mom's fun was at my expense. My trunks were plastered to my human body and my Mother influenced puffy was on display. I left the poolside area as rapidly as you can getting refuge in my room. Later that time, having dry off, I was sleeping on my bed, just wearing briefs, texting my buddies and listening to audio with my headset on. Capturing a flash from the place of my eye, I considered see my mother standing in the doorway. I don't know how long she have been ranking there. Her look appeared to be below my eyes. Was she checking me out? Thinking if that has Freepornchat been also possible seeme d to breathe life in to my wang as it started to cultivate some more. Mom wanted to apologise for her behaviour early in the day and her pursuing my friends away. I apologised to her for disrespecting her by letting my buddies to act that way. My mother stepped sideways of my sleep and explained she needed a hug. I sat up at the medial side of the bed and before I could stand up, Mom closed the length between people, pulling me limited against her for the reason that hug. My arms gone around her as well. Mother was still carrying her swimsuit from earlier that day. And, as a result of top big difference between us, my mind was against Mom's 36C's. She had her arms about me pulling me as tightly that you can against them. My hands were about her middle, embracing her as tightly. I don't know where I acquired the nerve to accomplish it but I made my mind in order that my lips were against among her breasts. She leaped only a little in response to the distress, I guess, and suddenly her bum was in my own hands. Normally enough, I squeezed her butt cheeks.
Mistress stepped right back from the sheet and analyzed her work. Without uttering a phrase, she turned and left the area for a short moment. When she came ultimately back I could see in the corner of my attention that she moved anything such as a plastic package and some shiny object. She put equally things on the tray between my legs. Then she left the space again, but now I instantly acknowledged the item that she cut back by the noise. Mistress pulled her beloved armchair into the area and towards the rack. This armchair appeared as if a tiny wooden throne. When she'd achieved the side of the rack, she picked up the chair and put it onto the top of the rack. The legs of the seat fit right beside my armpits and my hips. I was presented such as for instance a picture. Since the throne was in position, I noticed what Mistress was preparing to do if you ask me that day. If she left the throne in this location then she'd be able to use my face as her footstool. Which was a principle that definitely excited me. I loved Mistress's little feet. I knew that she needed additional proper care of these past to your appointments. Just the very thought of them made my wang swell which was really uncomfortable as a result of small penis cage. I straight away focused on later, when I would hopefully be permitted to smell and lick her legs!? Not knowing her full masterplan, I possibly anticipated that the crate was already gone by then. But, because it turned out, the little cage wasn't planning to be my greatest problem...
What happened next was
outside of my thin subject of vision, but I could hear break hooks pressing once they connected to the cuffs at the ankles of my hands and feet. I felt that Mistress touched the cock cage. I believed that she applied some electrical patches to the soles of my feet. Next, she caressed my nipples until they certainly were difficult and erect. There clearly was number time and energy to enjoy. The joy was straight away changed by the pinching suffering of the breast clamps.
Minutes later I was ready and stumbled from the cloak room. The little zip slits in the rubber lid narrowed down my field of view. The pose collar pushed my head up and closed it in to position and therefore shifted my currently thin area of view right forward and up towards the ceiling. I could not see underneath 1 / 2 of the space before me and I possibly could not turn my mind remaining or right. The added fat to my legs thought unusual as well. All this built me walk slowly and really awkwardly. Mistress was instantly irritated by my clumsiness. She grabbed the material loop on my collar and guided me impatiently through the area to a wooden stretching rack. At the sheet she turned me about with a fast take at the loop. The next force that her give put on my neck made it apparent in my experience that she wanted me to lay down backwards.

"Fine thanks, you?" shouldn't be the answer to the question "How are you feeling today?" at work - unless you really don't have anything going on that day! A team that has the ability to discuss what's going on for them, is a team that can support and help each other through what life throws at it. It leads to employees with healthy minds, with much less risk of stressing out and becoming ill. I'm thankful Prince Harry's spoken out about it today, especially towards men who can often find talking about feelings more difficult.
What we are trying to do is normalise the conversation to the point where anyone can sit down and have a coffee and just go 'you know what, I've had a really s--- day, can I just tell you about it? Because then you walk away and it's done."

How Portland made me feel like an old lady.
I should have known better than to get my hopes up. I had really high hopes for Portland, but Portland didn't return my compliments. Instead, Portland made me feel old, boring, dreadfully normal! Maybe I should thank Portland for giving me a preview of how I'll feel everywhere in twenty or thirty years. Don't get me wrong, Portland made me happy too.

Macheso Offers U.S $150 Maintenance
Sungura ace Alick Macheso yesterday offered to pay US$150 towards the upkeep of his two children sired with Tafadzwa Fortunate Mapako.Mapako, through her lawyers Mr David Ngwerume and Gift Nyandoro of Hamunakwadi, Nyandoro and Nyambuya law firm, is demanding US$7 130 monthly maintenance for her needs and the upkeep of her two minor children.
However, Macheso disputed the amount saying he could not afford it. Magistrate Mr Tafadzwa Muvhami is expected to deliver judgment in the case today.
The case has aroused interest among the public as witnessed by the attendance in and outside the court premises yesterday.
The courtroom packed, prompting the court orderly to question why people had flooded the court.
As the two camps made their way out of the court, hundreds of people mobbed Macheso's car cheering him before doing the same to Nyadzisai, calling her "Amai".
Tafadzwa could have encountered the worst day of her life as the mob turned to her calling her a "prostitute" and a "gold digger".
Her lawyers had to provide cover. In her application, Mapako stated that Macheso is legally liable to maintain her and the two minor children since they are still legally married.
Her lawyer Mr Nyandoro added that Macheso earns a lot of money since he is a renowned artiste and an ambassador for various entities.
"It is in the public domain that Macheso earns a lot of money through his shows and from various entities such as Red Cross, Baker's Inn and Nash Paints where he is an ambassador. If he is saying that he took these roles for free, then something is wrong with his management.
"Macheso is lying to the court that he earns between US$800 and US$1 000. If he earns that money, where was he going to get the US$1 000 plus he had initially offered as maintenance, is it a case of miracle money?
"We are not talking of Kapfupi here but Macheso who is a local, regional and international artiste and can charge more than US$6 000 per show.
"To Macheso US$7 130 is just a drop in the Kariba Dam. He is just running away from his responsibilities," he said
He also told the court that it was Macheso who walked out of their marriage, not the other way round.
"The respondent alleges that he gave our client a divorce token but the question is, where is the proof? If it was Mapako who ended the four-year marriage, why then is Macheso giving her a divorce token instead of Mapako giving him the token?"
Mr Nyandoro accused Macheso of making a counter application demanding DNA tests, adding that he should make a separate application.
In response Macheso through his lawyer, Mr Norman Mugiya of Mugiya and Macharaga Law Chambers, said he could not afford to pay that amount as he was an ordinary musician employed by Orchestra Mberikwazvo earning between US$800 and US$1 000 depending on the fortunes of that month.
Mr Mugiya added that at law Macheso was not liable to maintain Mapako.
"Your Worship, I think Mapako should direct her claims to Macheso as an individual not to the band since he is an employee to the band and being paid by a manager.
"She thought she would get a meal certificate from Macheso as Fortunate thinks she might be fortunate enough to get that money. Where is the tangible evidence that my client has other means of getting money?" he added.
He accused Mapako of picking people from nowhere to make them file affidavits claiming to be her driver and landlord.
"I think this so-called driver was picked from Mbare and employed this morning as a driver. It's common cause that kids catch a cold and in the case of Alick Junior who Mapako alleges is of ill health, it's just a cold which can be cured by pain killers so what does she need US$900 for?"
Mr Mugiya further said there was nothing irregular with Macheso's first wife Nyadzisai filing a supporting affidavit.
He said Nyadzisai was Macheso's only wife following Tafadzwa's fall from grace.
"I pray that the court orders an interim figure of US$150 which is a whopping figure for Mapako and to order paternity tests to be conducted by May 30," he said.

Patients with a right hemisphere stroke often exhibit symptoms of aberrant visuospatial exploration such as visual inattention and disorganized search. These disturbances are complex and constitute several lateralized and non-lateralized impairments. Although individual symptoms of impaired visuospatial search have been examined in several studies, little is known about the change in these symptoms across time and about the relationships between the different symptoms. The participants in the current study were selected from a series of 411 patients included in the Sahlgrenska Academy Study on Ischemic Stroke (SAHLSIS) at Göteborg University. All patients with an acute ischemic stroke admitted to the stroke unit at the Sahlgrenska Univeristy hospital and with an age below 70 years were investigated during a period of 5 year. From these were a consecutive series of patients with a right hemisphere stroke selected for examination of impaired visuospatial search. The patients were tested at the post-acute stage (< 7 days after onset) and at a follow-up session (approximately 90 days after onset). Conventional cancellation tests and visual search tasks were used to assess the following components of impaired search: 1) lateralized inattention (omissions distributed asymmetrically across the test sheet), 2) non-lateralized inattention (omissions distributed equally across the test sheet), 3) ipsilesional bias in the start of visual search (a bias toward the right side of the test sheet when marking the first target), 4) slow processing speed on timed visual cancellation tasks. The results are described and discussed as follows: 1) the occurrence of the different symptoms at the post-acute stage, 2) the pattern of change in the symptoms between post-acute stage and follow-up, 3) the relationships between the acute symptoms and between the changes in the symptoms.

Losing Weight - Part 8
After a lot of great progress I've hit a bit of a wall. I've actually lost some ground and put on 2lb. The next push starts now. I'd become complacent and let things slip a little. The thing with losing weight is that it requires constant vigilance against complacency.
The next big milestone for me is a trip to Malta in June. By that point I am aiming for a reduced weight down to 215lbs. This is a massive target but is achievable if I'm disciplined.
What could derail my exercise is that I'm currently under the care of a consultant for my ongoing shoulder issues. I've not been able to run or walk as much due to the shin splints I'm suffering from as well, but I am receiving physiotherapy for this. As I lose weight, the strain on my knees and shins will reduce anyway. Until that happens I need to keep focused. I need to have long term goals and then break them down in to manageable chunks.
The ultimate aim is to get down to roughly 13 stone (approx. 185lbs should be fine). If I lose 1.5lbs per week on average, then there's no reason why I can't see 2017 start with a much better state of health.
My problem is food. I love food. I eat for pleasure, but I should eat for survival. We eat for fuel but while most people know what calories are, many people are terrible at judging them. I don't know why it is so difficult to eat in proportion. Maybe it is because the food industry is profit driven; maximum gain for minimal cost.
Anyway, a bit of a random post but some things I wanted to get off my chest.
18/5/2016 08:40:29 am
Quite simply, the food industry is corrupt. The unnecessary addition of salt, refined sugar and fats into processed food is a global scandal. Food manufacturers also try everything they can to mislead consumers about what they are eating, with ploys such as calorie content listed for 'portions' or 'servings' that do not reflect how people eat.

Part 27: Final Preparation for the Roof Framing
May 16, 2015
(Introduction, Syllabus, 1.Prelims, 1-4Precon, 2. Excavation, 3.Foundation, 4.Framing, 5.Roof, 6.Close, 7.MEP, 8.Finish)
Almost all residential roofs are framed using prefabricated trusses rather than more traditional conventually framed ridge beams and rafters. As noted above, truss roofs offer speed and labor efficiency and are designed by truss manufacturers using simple computer programs. The framing members are then prefabricated and delivered to the jobsite to be erected as an interlocking framing system.
Traditional roof framing
As an alternative, traditional roof framing is field fabricated, maximizing the use of the space under the roof, but it also requires more time and attention to detail than component or truss framed roofs. Engineering is also more complex with roof slopes, spans, and the thickness required for insulation governed by the depth and spacing of framing members.
Traditional framing takes both experience and carpentry skills not often found in production residential construction. It is shown here for educational purposes. Though not difficult to build, this type of construction is best assembled by seasoned builders working for owners who value the space and visual interest of open ceilings and clerestory windows.
Sheathing stiffens the frame
Once the top plates and loft framing are in place, sheathing is added to the outside of the exterior walls to stiffen the frame. The sheathing is nailed to the studs and plates to resist lateral loads and uplift forces from wind and earthquake.
The spacing of nails along the edges and centers of the sheathing varies with the anticipated loads on the structure.
Spacing is determined by engineering calculations that take into account the location, exposure, and wind and earthquake requirements of local building codes.
The geometry of the roof framing
The entry roof is a good example of the geometry of the traditional roof framing method. Note that the framing members form simple triangles with the floor or ceiling joists acting as the bottom chords of the truss and the rafters acting as the top chords or hypotenuse of the triangle.
Shear walls extend from the foundation tie-downs up through the loft floor, all the way to the ridge beam in order to unify the structural system.
Note that fall protection become increasingly important when framing a traditional roof, making safety and careful planning primary concerns during this phase of the construction.
(To be continued…)
The material presented in this series has been taken from our book, "How a House is Built: With 3D Construction Models" The book includes annotated illustrations, captioned text, videos, models, and the 2D Preliminaries.
