Rustic-Modern Toddler Bedroom Decor Ideas

Old Fashioned But Very Cute Kids Room

Do you love the feeling of a cozy bedroom, but wish some elements were more up to date? Try a new approach with a rustic modern style for a toddler’s room! Just take the elements that you love, and start mixing and matching.

For example, try beautiful natural wood for the bed, but use a modern bedspread with simple colors. You can also easily, and for very little money, accent the room with some gunmetal pull handles on the dressers or closet. Natural light is always great in a cozy, rustic room, so try to minimize the amount of harsh lights in the bedroom, and put in some thin curtains or blinds. A great place to achieve this look in any room is on the floor, check out some of the ideas here for rustic flooring.

Boys Room

Great colors to paint the walls might be greys, reds, or yellows. Three important things you need to consider are: symmetry, simplicity, and natural elements. Secondhand stores and flea markets are great places to shop for furniture. Try to look for rustic wooden end tables, dressers, and a headboard at those places. Great things to hang on the walls are vintage signs and posters. Things like this can add great character.

Butter London Tart with a Heart

Well my package of Butter London Nail Polishes from the USA arrived whilst I was at Wagga Wagga. I thought I would adore The Black Knight and hate Tart with a Heart! Well that didn't go according to plan. I found The Black Knight thick and gloopy, whilst Tart with a Heart was an absolute dream to apply and looked stunning layered.

This is W7 Envy a brand I found at the local Chemist Warehouse on the very bottom shelf. It's a lovely blue green colour. It applied wonderfully smooth and was extremely glossy without a topcoat and I would have left my mani at that, but I had already decided to layer on Tart with a Heart. The only small flaw I have with this brand is the brush is adequate but not crash hot.

Tart with a Heart is a wonderfully sparkly polish, it has small gold glitter along with bigger hex holographic glitter, even just turning the bottle in your hand the glitter is so sparkly and mesmerising! My new favourite amongst my glitters.
And my next post will be about another Butter London polish that arrived in the same package and is so beautiful in a different way! Can you guess which one?

Are you an Australian resident for tax purposes?

In this global interconnected world, many Australians will no doubt leave Australia to work in many different countries in a vast array of professions. However, just because you leave Australia for a period of time, that does not mean that your Australian tax obligations are no longer relevant. Australian tax is based on the concept of “residency”. If you are considered to be a tax resident of Australia then you will be taxed on your worldwide income with a tax offset available for any foreign tax paid.

To work out whether or not you are a tax resident of Australia, there are several tests. The main test is the “resides” test under common law.

Some of the factors considered to be relevant in determining residency under this primary test include:

  • your living arrangements (ie whether your usual place of abode is in Australia and whether you have family here);
  • the purpose, frequency and duration of visits to Australia;
  • extent of any business/employment ties with Australia;
  • extent of family/social ties with Australia;
  • ownership of real estate in Australia;
  • location of other assets and personal effects;
  • where bank accounts are maintained;
  • and nationality and citizenship.

This primary test is entirely dependent on the individual circumstances of each case, and one change could sway the residency test one way or the other.

If it is clear that you do not satisfy the “resides” test, you will still be considered to be an Australian tax resident if you satisfy one of the following three statutory tests:

  • Domicile and permanent place of abode – you will be considered to be an Australian resident if Australia is your permanent home.
  • 183-day test – if you’re present in Australia for more than half of the income year, whether continuously or with breaks, then you will have constructive residence in Australia
  • Commonwealth superannuation test – if you’re a member of a Commonwealth government superannuation scheme or have a relationship to a member of such a scheme then you will be considered to be a resident of Australia.
A person’s residency is determined on a year-by-year basis and the Commissioner may treat an individual to be a resident of Australia until it can be clearly established that they have cut all relevant ties with Australia. Residency is a complex area, if you are unsure or you think you are on the borderline of being an Australian resident, please contact our office for more information.

Professional Looking Cuffs Using the Magic Cast-on with Lorilee Beltman
Learn to knit professional looking cuffs and hems without crochet hooks or waste yarn. Class begins by learning Judy's Magic Cast-on and proceeds to knitting in the round to learn first hand what a beautifully-tensioned invisible cast-on can look like. Next we work a hemmed cuff, both plain and picot without waste yarn or sewing down bulky edges. Finally, create the professional and tidy tubular cast-on in 1 x 1 and 2 x 2 rib, again without waste yarn or a crochet hook. These memorizable techniques will be your new "go-to" skills for provisional starts for a sweater, hat, and mitten cuffs.

One 4 or 4.5mm/US 6 or 7 slippery, circular needle 32" long or longer, one additional needle either straight, circular, or dpn of similar size, 50 grams of #4 (worsted weight) yarn. Yarn must be a multi-ply wool, smooth, and colored lightly enough to see well. Yarn must not be single ply, acrylic, fuzzy (no mohair), splitty, dark, nor thinner than worsted. Gauge is not critical for class.

Arden School temporary classrooms removed

A group of temporary classrooms adjacent to Arden School on Station Road were dismantled and removed today. Planning permission had expired and their continued presence had led to irritation within the community.

Arden School has responded to concerns expressed by Council planners, councillors and especially local residents by removing these temporary classrooms a few weeks after the expiry of planning permission but before wider community agitation became significant. The community will welcome this move as nobody wants to see poor community relations with a very successful local school. The school would prefer to have continued with the use of the extra space, this being despite a recent history of strong growth of new facilities. The real issues on this matter from the perspective of the school although aired had not reached the point of widespread debate; most people however will be glad to see the law upheld and a longstanding eyesore addressed.

New online discussion forum launched

We are very pleased to announce the launch of a new online forum for members to discuss issues of relevance to the ‘village’ of Knowle and The Knowle Society. This facility was originally requested by a member at the Society’s 2006 AGM.

Knowle Conservation Area Re-Appraisal

The long awaited report from Solihull Council on the re-appraisal of the Knowle Conservation Area is now complete and is being published.

The Society contributed to this re-appraisal and has been advised that several of its suggestions have been incorporated. Further news will appear in the next newsletter and on this website when the Society has received the report and had an opportunity to study it.

Make It

Tap or click steps to mark as complete

  • Place 2 Tbsp. flour in pie plate. Add chicken, 1 piece at a time; turn to evenly coat both sides of each breast.
  • Heat 2 Tbsp. dressing in large nonstick skillet on medium-high heat. Add chicken; turn to evenly coat both sides with dressing. Cook 3 to 4 min. on each side or until evenly browned on both sides. (Chicken will not be done.) Transfer chicken to plate; cover to keep warm.
  • Add 2 Tbsp. of the remaining dressing and mushrooms to skillet; cook 8 min. or until mushrooms are golden brown, stirring occasionally and adding garlic for the last minute. Stir in remaining flour; cook and stir 1 min. Add remaining dressing, broth and soy sauce; cook and stir 2 min. or until slightly thickened.
  • Return chicken to skillet; spoon mushroom mixture over chicken. Cook 2 min. or until done.

Serving Suggestion

Serve this Asian-inspired main dish with 2-2/3 cups hot cooked jasmine rice.

Special Extra

Garnish with chopped fresh cilantro before serving.

How to Pound the Chicken

Pounding the chicken breasts allows them to cook more quickly and evenly. Place chicken in freezer-weight resealable plastic bag, then pound the chicken with the side of a heavy can, rolling pin or meat mallet until desired thickness. The bag will contain the liquids from the chicken, minimizing the mess.

April 26: Aaron Watson

93.7 Kiss Country is proud to announce that Aaron Watson will be the Friday Night Featured Artist at the 105th Annual Clovis Rodeo! The show takes place after all the Clovis Rodeo action on Friday, April 26th at the Clovis Rodeo grounds.

Aaron Watson
Friday, April 26th – 8:30 PM*
(*after Rodeo Competition ends)
Clovis Rodeo Grounds
Clovis, Ca

Aaron Watson continues to be one of country music’s biggest DIY success stories,  with his latest effort, “Kiss That Girl Goodbye,” the solely self-penned lead single from his forthcoming studio album. The lyrically driven, up-tempo percussive stunner is the first glimpse into Watson’s brand-new studio project, Red Bandana.  Slated for release in 2019 on his own BIG Label Records and distributed by ADA Worldwide, the album has already landed on “the most anticipated country albums of 2019” lists including Saving Country Music and The Boot.

Watson’s last studio album Vaquero launched into the Top 10 on the Billboard 200 Albums chart with his biggest career sales debut to date, and at #2 on the Top Country Albums chart. Texas Monthly, Billboard, Rolling Stone Country, Noisey, CMT, The Boot and more have all featured the new music. Vaquero is the follow up to his history-making album The Underdog, which debuted at #1 on the Billboard Top Country Albums chart, making him the first-ever independent, male country artist to debut in the coveted top spot. The album features “Outta Style,” his record-breaking Top 10 and BMI award-winning hit on country music’s national radio airplay charts and top 40 hit “Run Wild Horses.”  Watson wrapped 2018 with two new projects, Live at the World’s Biggest Rodeo Show, Watson’s 14th album and his first live album in nearly a decade, and his first ever Christmas collection, An Aaron Watson Family Christmas.

The singer/songwriter’s rise has been paved by years of hard work and perseverance. Twenty years, over a dozen recorded albums, more than 2,500 shows in the U.S. and Europe, the Texas native is determined to stay true to his roots and deliver music directly to his fans

Hello All!

I found this short article from Bonnie T at the main office and I wanted to share this with you.

Hello All!
I’m Bonnie T. At Stampin’ Up!, my main job is working with teams that educate and spoil our demonstrators—the Demonstrator Training team and the Special Events team. I’m also a demonstrator.
I love working at Stampin’ Up! because there’s so much energy here; I love being a Stampin’ Up! demonstrator because I feel that energy when I share my ideas with customers.  I hope you love your job, too!

I wanted to share some cards I put together last night. The annual catalog ends this month and I love the Pinwheels on Parade Simply Scrappin’ Kit, so I thought I’d use it as inspiration. For only $21.95 USD/$26.95 CAN, you can make 16 cards with lined envelopes! I hope you like the cards—if you do, make sure you order online  right away—there are less then two weeks to get this kit. Order your kit now!
Oh, and tell her (or him) that Bonnie loves her (or him).

Creating Cards for You!

Police in North Las Vegas said Monday that 60-year-old Amy Elizabeth Fleming was being transferred from Palm Beach, Florida, to Nevada to face a murder charge in Francillon Pierre's death in 1986.

The child's body hasn't been found, but police say they recently obtained new witness accounts implicating Fleming in his death.

Fleming and her fiancee, Lee Luster, had told police that the boy wandered away at a Saturday afternoon swap meet.

North Las Vegas police Officer Eric Leavitt says the couple married and moved to Boca Raton the following year.

Adult Education - the Memorandum on cooperation with the German NGO "German association of People universities "DVV International is signed

February 25, 2015 Head of the State Penitentiary Service of Ukraine Volodymyr Palahniuk and Deputy Minister of Education and Science of Ukraine Pavlo Polyansky signed a memorandum of cooperation with the German NGO "German association of people's university" DVV International.

The mentioned document envisages an agreed cooperation in educational field of convicts, released persons from serving punishment and personnel bodies and agencies that under authority of the State Penitentiary Service Ukraine.

German NGO "German association of people's universities" DVV International was presented Regional Director - Anita Jacobson.

During the meeting, participants discussed the readiness for strengthen of state capacity and NGO sectors in education of prisoners and those citizens who are released from prison.

Expressing the gratitude, Ms. Jacobson said that the signing of the memorandum of cooperation provides establish background for more attracting resources of federal agencies in Germany to improve the quality of life through the development of adult education in Ukraine.

"With the adoption in February 2015 of the Law of Ukraine "On probation," we have to focus our efforts on issues of educational services for future subjects of probation service. At the same time with the joint efforts we will promote the creation of conditions to attract donor organizations for development of this area," - said Ms. Jacobson.

Deputy Minister of Education and Science of Ukraine Pavlo Polyansky informed participants: "We are all realizing that we start important thing, even with limited resources - to develop adult education. But, the Constitution of Ukraine does not restrict obtaining citizens of our state of secondary education age limits... People often are taken to places of detention because of different reasons, for example not enough educated or uncivilized. Nevertheless, we can influence on their world outlook through the education, it can be a chance for them. On the other hand, how they will use this chance - we do not know. At the same time we create conditions and provide the opportunity through the education to bring benefits to citizens of Ukraine for themselves, for society, for the state. "

On the ending of meeting the Head of the State Penitentiary Service Volodymyr Palagniuk noted that desire of non-governmental sector to assist in promoting adult education and public awareness of the problems in this area is an important progressive feature of citizens.

"Penitentiary Service is in limited budgets. But it’s a reason to do nothing. Especially it concerns of our "little" citizens, they should not be reserve of "criminal world" in the future. These causes can be minimized through the education of adults and minors, engaging in this process the non-governmental sector. This work can be organized in probation service, organizational and legal principles determined in the Law of Ukraine "On probation", signed by the President of Ukraine Petro Poroshenko February 24, 2015, "- said the Head of penitentiary department.

kindness is free, sprinkle that shit everywhere

I wouldn't blame you for thinking that little else went on in my head apart from Justin Bieber, Leo di Caprio, brunch, and cocktails on a continuous rolling loop. Which, to be completely honest, isn't too far from the truth BUT - on the odd occasion the loop skips and a spot frees up for me to think about something else...I've been revelling in the joys of being a more positive paula. Not all the time, mind, I'm not superwoman and after 1 hours sleep coupled with period pain all day on Thursday my new-found-posi-patience was really being put to the test, but in general, I've been drinking a lotta positivi-tea and am starting to feel the good karma returned.

A few other thoughts I've squeezed into the loop: that people are beautiful, beautiful, beautiful little beings and it never fails to amaze me how interesting they can become when you get to know them. Working hard pays off, just not in the ways you expect sometimes. A smile goes a long way. I mean, a really long way. So do unexpected cups of coffee. And lastly, there is no day bad enough that can't be cheered up by a decent cuddle.

I'm also enjoying affirming my positive-pants status with prints from Printiki. Because who doesn't love a good life mantra distributed evenly amongst fairy lights?! As well as life mantras, I've printed off photos of my nearest and dearest which serve as a daily reminder that I'm surrounded by some pretty wonderful, beautiful, interesting, funny as fuck, and supportive as hell people. And yes, I did print a picture of Justin Bieber because NO ONE GETS TO JUDGE WHAT MAKES ME HAPPY and if JB's cute lil face sends happy shivers down my spine then so be it. I didn't chose the belieber life, it chose me.

I picked up these gorgeous lights from Etsy and you can chose and order your own prints from Printiki here. No obligation to order JB either, but you will if you know what's good for ya, jus sayin'.

Yep, it has been a good fortnight of food. And an even better fortnight of slowly but surely dragging my mindset out of the fuck-its and into the wonderful world of be-a-better-bloody-person. So, to sum this relatively odd post up; be the energy you want to attract. And that energy should more often than not be a positive energy - but you can always try and emanate some telepathic SIZE 8 TONED MODEL BRONZED GODDESS energy in the hope you can attract those back in physical form, too. Mentioning that for a friend.

Queer kinship and family making revisited

Call for papers

Deadline for abstracts: June 15, 2018

The past decade has witnessed an explosion of research in critical and queer kinship studies, much of which has centred on how LGBTQ families and families of choice cope with heteronormative institutions and structures. The Nordic region has long been characterized as particularly progressive when it comes to gender equality, sexual rights, and even anti-racism. After over a decade of expanding marriage and family rights for LGBTQ people, what constitutes queer kinship in the Nordic region? How does LGBTQ reproduction confirm or challenge Nordic exceptionalism or growing trends of homonationalism? What kinds of new challenges, questions, topics emerge as formal rights are increasingly established? What kinds of familial homonormativities are emerging and who remains on the margins? How is queer kinship represented in popular culture and the arts? This special issue invites articles on new forms of familymaking and kinship in an age of medically assisted reproduction and expanding family law. While we welcome submissions from all over the world, we are especially interested in papers that grapple with empirical and theoretical materials related to the Nordic region.

Suggested topics include, but are not limited to:

* Trans*parenting

* Parents of LGBTQ children

* Sexual intimacy and family-making

* Intergenerational family and kinship

* Kinship-based roleplay and sexual practice

* Multi-parent families and Soloparenting

* Donor siblings and Donor kinship

* Mediated kinship; the technologies of kinship and procreation

* Transnational fertility travel

* The biopolitics of queer reproduction

* Human/animal kinship

* Adoption policies and critical adoption studies

* Pederastic kinship

* Transracial and transnational kinship

* Divorce and custody battles

* LGBTQ families outside the urban middle class norm

* Queer kinship in art and literature

Articles should be between 6,000 and 8,000 words including footnotes and references and should not have been published previously. This particular issue will be in English. For more detailed instructions, see the journal webpage:

We ask you to send us one-page abstracts for article submissions.

Deadline for abstracts: June 15, 2018

Deadline for articles: November 1, 2018

Planned publication: Issue 3-4/2019 (November 2019)

Queries and submissions, please contact co-editors and/or

lambda nordica is a Nordic peer-reviewed academic journal for research in the Humanities and Social Sciences with relation to LGBT and Queer Studies.

Third Canadian ‘Cure’ convoy set for Oct. 17 in New Brunswick

| 10/15/2009

The third all-female “Convoy for a Cure” is set to roll Saturday, Oct. 17, in Salisbury, New Brunswick, Canada.

Roxanne Doran Smith is organizing the first-ever convoy in New Brunswick. She said she was inspired to organize one in her area based on the success of OOIDA member Rachèle Champagne’s convoy in Ontario a year ago. Champagne’s initial convoy raised $15,000 for breast cancer research.

So far, two convoys in Alberta and in Cornwall, Ontario, have raised more than $36,000 for the Canadian Breast Cancer Foundation – or CBCF.

“We have all been touched in some ways by cancer, and it is my chance to give back to the organization,” Smith said.

The final convoy of the season – and the first-ever U.S. “Cure” convoy – is set to roll on Oct. 24 at Willie’s Place in Carl’s Corner, TX.

The Mystery of the Phantom App Updates

November 24, 2017

By Jeff Johnson (hire me and/or buy Underpass)

Starting on November 17, many iOS and tvOS apps that had not been updated for a year or two years suddenly received phantom updates in the App Store, without any action by the developers of those apps. The version numbers of the apps did not change. For some of the updates, the release notes were the same as the previous update. For others, the release notes said, "This update is signed with Apple's latest signing certificate. No new features are included." Some people speculated that Bitcode recompilation was performed on the apps. So far, Apple has not published any press release or documentation explaining why it updated all of these apps.

One of my purchased iOS apps received a phantom update. What really caught my attention was that I had personally worked on this app, Airfoil Satellite by Rogue Amoeba Software. Before now, Airfoil Satellite was last updated in March 2016, while I was still at the company. The new phantom update had the same version number 1.1.1 as before, and the release notes were also the same as before. I believe that Bitcode was enabled for the app. Bitcode is enabled by default for iOS apps, and I don't recall any reason for us to have disabled it for Airfoil Satellite.

Unfortunately, to the dismay of many people, Apple removed iOS app purchase and sync from iTunes 12.7. However, after the backlash, Apple quietly released iTunes 12.6.3 ostensibly for "certain business partners". Fortunately, I had installed iTunes 12.6.3, which greatly aided my investigation. iTunes downloads an iOS app as an .ipa file, which is an archive format. You can unarchive an app in Finder simply by changing the file extension from .ipa to .zip, which allows the built-in Archive Utility to recognize the file format.

I made a copy of the old Airfoil Satellite .ipa from ~/Music/iTunes/Mobile Applications and then updated the app in iTunes to download the new .ipa for comparison. After I unarchived the two app versions, I compared the folder hierarchies using FileMerge, which is part of the Xcode developer tools. Inside the Airfoil bundles there were some minor changes to the resource rules in _CodeSignature/CodeResources. There were changes to the files in the SC_Info folder, which is added to the app by Apple for their DRM. And of course the executable file was changed.

It seemed unlikely that the resource rules were the reason for the app update. The app's resources — e.g., images, Interface Builder files — were completely unchanged, so the updated _CodeSignature/CodeResources was merely a side effect of the app getting re-signed. Thus, the app's executable file became the main target of my investigation. An executable is signed with a code signing certificate. Certificates form a "chain of trust", where the validity of one certificate is guaranteed by another certificate, with the chain ultimately linking to a "root" certificate that is trusted by the system. You can reveal an app's certificate chain with the following command in Terminal:

$ codesign --display --extract-certificates [path-to-executable]

This command produces 3 files. The signing cert is codesign0, the intermediate cert is codesign1, and the root cert is codesign2. To examine the certs, I created a new keychain in Keychain Access and dragged in the 3 files from Finder. Creating a new keychain is useful because duplicate certs may not get imported into an existing keychain. From the older version of Airfoil Satellite, the signing cert Apple iPhone OS Application Signing is valid from May 2008 to May 2020. So it doesn't expire soon, but 2020 isn't too far in the future. The intermediate cert Apple iPhone Certification Authority is valid from April 2007 to April 2022, and the root cert Apple Root CA is valid from April 2006 to February 2035.

Next I examined the certs from the new version of Airfoil Satellite. The root cert is the same as before. The new intermediate cert is valid from May 2017 to December 2030, so it expires 8 years later than the old intermediate cert. The new signing cert is valid from July 2017 to August 2019. Wait… what?!? The new signing cert expires 9 months earlier than the old signing cert. Thus, if the pending expiration date were the reason for the app updates, then we're going in the wrong direction of time here.

As an experiment, for the sake of SCIENCE, I set the date forward on my iPhone to August 2, 2031, which seems to be the latest date that iOS would allow. Then I rebooted the device and attempted to launch apps, including Airfoil Satellite. Lo and behold, it worked! So there you have it, folks, definitive proof that expired signing certs do not prevent an app from launching on iOS. Thus, cert expiration does not appear to be a good reason for Apple to ship phantom app updates.

Moreover, I decided to take a look at an older app in my library that didn't receive a phantom update: Apple's own AirPort Utility. This app was last updated in September 2014, and it hasn't (yet) received a phantom App Store update. It turns out that AirPort Utility is code signed with the exact same certificate chain as the old version of Airfoil Satellite. So if there is a problem with the old signing certs, whether expiration or something else, the problem still exists with AirPort Utility. Presumably this fact would also rule out the (highly unlikely) possibility of private key compromise.

The mystery remains why Apple would need to ship phantom app updates with a new signing cert. As far as I can tell, it makes no sense. Consequently, it's worth exploring the possibility that the app updates were recompiled with Bitcode for some reason. One reason for Bitcode would be in case Apple added a new microprocessor architecture, but this is not the case currently. iPhone X and iPhone 8 have a new processor, but the A11 is just a faster chip, it doesn't use a whole new architecture. The old and new versions of Airfoil Satellite both contain the same processor architectures, armv7 and arm64, so nothing was added to the executables in that respect.

You can analyze app executables in Terminal with the command-line tool otool. The old and new versions of Airfoil Satellite are mostly the same. Only 2 things have changed: the code signature, of course, since the app was signed with a new cert, and the __TEXT,__text section, which contains the machine instructions to be executed by the app. In App Store apps, the __text section is encrypted with Apple's DRM. I've been told that you can't decrypt it without a jailbroken device, which I don't have, so I wasn't able to compare the disassembly of the old and new versions of Airfoil Satellite. Curiously, though, the __text section is exactly the same size in the old and new versions of Airfoil Satellite, for each architecture. You can see the sizes of the sections and other interesting details with the following Terminal command:

$ otool -l [path-to-executable]

It's conceivable that recompiling the Bitcode would result in the same assembly size as before, but in my opinion that's unlikely. It's even more unlikely that this would result in some kind of significant runtime performance gain, which would be the only good reason I can think of for shipping a new Bitcode compile, absent a new processor architecture. Most likely, the matching __text sizes indicate that the same machine instructions as before were simply encrypted with a new key.

Mystery unsolved. Mission unaccomplished. I'm still quite puzzled why Apple shipped all of these phantom app updates. I ask my faithful and unfaithful readers to help out with the investigation. I only had one example to analyze. If you received a phantom app update, especially if you're the developer of the app, follow my steps and compare the two versions. Even if you can't decrypt the __text, compare the sizes. The same size once is just a coincidence. The same size twice is … just a coincidence too, carrying a smoking gun.

Hats off to Friday!

Happy, Happy Friday!!! I still haven't had time to download vacation pics (or any of my thousand current WIPs), but I have a few photos to share of past FO's.

The Bunny Tail hat is still pretty big for tiny Emma, but that doesn't take away from the uber-cute factor!

Emma_BunnyHatf Emma_BunnyHatg

This hat was truly one of my most favorite knits... super easy and quick -- and flat out, stinking adorable (if you clicked on the Ravelry link above you'll see it even has a tail)!

I have a couple of pictures from Christmas... yes, I said Christmas... I guess I never got around to uploading any holiday pictures because I discovered these sitting in an unmarked folder on the desktop! Anywho, I made a hat for each of my brother's 4 smallest kids and I'm not really sure any of them ever actually wore them, but at least I managed pictures of 2 of them.

Here's Tabitha with her red & black (to match her jacket) number...

Here is Mr. Ham-the-Model himself, Jake wearing his blue diddy...

Jake_1208_hatB Jake_1208_GuitarHat

Now, time for a little Fill-Ins!

1. I really need to get to work on decluttering and organizing my home.
2. My favorite thing for dinner lately has been seafood - esp fried clams.
3. Sophie has truly come out of her shell when it comes to her voice... and lately, all she does is bark! bark! bark! (esp when there is a pesky critter in the yard)
4. A nice long walk is what I need to start taking after work.
5. How about some good news.
6. When all is was said and done, it was a huge weight lifted off my shoulders... one that I hadn't realized had been weighing as much as it had for the past year.

7. And as for the weekend, tonight I'm looking forward to a quiet evening at home, tomorrow my plans include heading out with friends to catch Night at The Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian and Sunday, I want to enjoy a nice day at Matt's racing... and maybe even see him win again (minus the rain this week)!

Cute, cute!

Auntie Q said...

IT's amazing how good it feels when we have our burdens lifted! adorable bunny hat! Adorable baby!

Sue said...

Little Emma is getting so big. Can't wait to see her in summer duds. The little sundresses for tiny tots are so cute.

teabird said...

I just saw that pattern on Ravelry - utterly adorable!

Drama queens mum said...

Cute pics & hats. Hey, is there a way I can follow you on here?

Lawrence Power Viola

Lawrence Power is one of today’s foremost violists, in demand worldwide as a recitalist, concerto soloist and chamber music partner. His artistry and penetrating musicianship gains him constant plaudits around the world, reflected in turn in eloquent reviews: ‘no musician today better equipped to play than the minstrel-like Power’ (Financial Times), ‘Power seduces you permanently’ (Trouw), ‘Power is something more: a profound musical personality, his every phrase new and noteworthy’ (Sunday Times).

Over the past decade, he has become a regular guest performer with orchestras of the highest calibre, from the Chicago Symphony, Boston Symphony, Royal Concertgebouw, Bayerischer Rundfunk, Stockholm, Bergen and Warsaw Philharmonic orchestras to the Philharmonia, BBC Scottish Symphony and Royal Liverpool Philharmonic orchestras. In addition, as a guest soloist with the Melbourne and Adelaide Symphony orchestras, he has established a strong presence in Australia where he will return in 2018 to ‘play direct’ at the Australian National Academy of Music. Highlights in 2017-18 include his debut with the Swedish Radio Symphony Orchestra and the Staatsoper Kassel, Mozart’s Sinfonia Concertante with Daniel Hope at the Zurich Chamber Orchestra Season opening concert, as well as recitals in Dresden Music Festival, USA Savannah Festival and a concert series at London’s Kings Place.

As a fervent champion of contemporary music, Lawrence has developed a large repertoire of new works. He gave the UK premiere of Olga Neuwirth’s concerto Remnants of Song at the 2012 BBC Proms, and the world premieres of scores written for him, including Salonen’s Pentatonic Étude, Turnage’s Power Play, Anderson’s Prayer, Goehr’s Hymn to Night, MacMillan’s Viola Concerto and Watkins’s Fantasy.

His recital credits include performances at Wigmore Hall, LSO St Luke’s, Lincoln Centre NY. He has developed an acclaimed partnership with pianist Simon Crawford-Phillips, collaborates with musicians such as violinist Maxim Vengerov or Joshua Bell. Artist in Residence with the Bergen Philharmonic Orchestra, he has also forged a close relationship with the London Philharmonic Orchestra.

Power’s Award-nominated Hyperion recordings include Bartók, Rósza, Walton and Rubbra’s viola concertos, Shostakovich and Brahms’ viola sonatas, and York Bowen's complete works for viola and piano (with Crawford-Phillips). His three-disc Hindemith survey stands as a benchmark recording of the composer’s complete works for solo viola. His release, Fin de Siècle includes world premiere recordings of works by Büsser, Hüe and Honnoré, together with compositions by Chausson, Debussy, Enescu and Ravel. Power also features on Ian Bostridge and Sir Antonio Pappano’s Shakespeare Songs, joint winner of the 2017 Grammy Award for Best Classical Solo Vocal Album. His next releases include Berlioz’s Harold in Italy with the Bergen Philharmonic for Hyperion and Erkki-Sven Tüür’s Illumination with the Tapiola Sinfonietta for Ondine, both recorded in 2017.

Lawrence Power is founder and Artistic Director of West Wycombe Chamber Music Festival.

... Power is something more: a profound musical personality, his every phrase new and noteworthy

It's a fine showcase of Power's extraordinarily eloquent playing, and his ability to transform the most commonplace phrase into something magically eloquent and memorable.

Carbon Arc

Carbon Arc lighting was the first ever form of Electric Light, first being demonstrated in 1802, developed by Sir Humphrey Davey, more famous for his miners safety lamp.

When Sir Humphrey first experimented with electrodes of carbon struck together then seperated, he noticed the light emitting discharge followed an arch shape as covection currents swept the plasma up, he called it the Arch Lamp, later shortened in common use to Arc Lamp.

Carbon Arc light sources can still be found in some cinema projection systems more than 200 years after their first demonstration.

Xenon arc lamps have largely replaced carbon arc in projectors, xenon shares carbons advantage of very small source size, allowing more of the light to be gathered by the reflector.

Xenon `searchlights` , brand names including Skytracker are popular outdoor advertising and event attraction devices.

For maximum effect original WWII Carbon Arc Searchlights are still available and give an effect unlike anything else.

Xenon `Skytracker` heads typically range from 2kW to 7kW with a 24" reflector, General Electric Carbon Arc Searchlights have a 60" reflector and consume 17kW.

Carbon arc is not gone yet.

Mixed Media

My current work has developed into a combination of media that I have picked up on through out the years. I was exposed to the computer design programs in the early 90’s while in graduate school and it has continued to infiltrate my work. I have always enjoyed taking photographs and with the onset of the digital camera and the ease of manipulating photos and paintings in the newest computer software programs it continues to fascinate me. It allows me to explore design, color, and pattern in ways that could not be done as easily without the computer. I continue to incorporate my weaving background as well as to design fabrics that can be incorporated into my final designs.

This is a combination of fiber and computer generated art from 2007.

I Quit My Job Without A Backup Plan

I Quit My Job Without A Backup Plan

Life is full of difficult decisions to be made. The question is, how do we ever know if we’ve made the right one? How do we know if our choices will propel us further to where we want to be or completely set us back right at the start? Truth be told, there’s no answer to the question.

Before I had finished university, I had been given an offer for a full-time job with a corporate company. I was honestly bewildered that I, out of all the smart and talented people in the world had somehow landed myself a mid-level job without having to do much. I felt as though I didn’t deserve it. I felt as though I hadn’t struggled enough or proven myself to be good enough for a job like this. My initial intention after university was to continue looking for paid internships or junior positions that would get me nothing more than 40k a year. And *poof*, I got a job that I felt was way too good to be true and way beyond my capabilities.

Despite my apprehensive attitude towards my abilities, I took the offer anyway. Who would ever pass off an opportunity like that? Who would say no when there are so many graduates in the world who are struggling to find decent jobs in their field?

I took the job. Excited, nervous, unsure.

In the first month, I learned more than I had in my five years of university. I made plenty of mistakes and was called naïve at one point, but I learned how to handle problems quickly and efficiently. I went from amateur to decent in so many skills because there was no other way to succeed then to keep learning. When you get thrown into the deep end, you either learn to swim or you just give up and drown.

Despite the achievements that I had been able to tick off within the first few months (successful campaigns, designing and executing my first print promotional collateral, heck, even cold-calling people – a task that gave me such strong anxiety I almost wanted to kill myself), there was a persistent and ominous cloud looming over my head. That cloud was my lack of confidence. No matter what I did, I always felt like I wasn’t good enough. I convinced myself that there way no way that I would ever be good enough. I became timid, anxious and worried. I wasn’t who I wanted to be, and I hated myself for it.

Over the months, this cloud grew bigger and bigger. My mood began to change. I was snappy and unhappy. I was sleepless, restless and exhausted. I didn’t know what to do and I desperately wished I was a different person.

I began job hunting on the down low, trying to figure out what I was looking for in terms of my career. I had an interview with a prospective employer but realised quickly that it was never going to work. He wasn’t looking for talent to nurture. No, he was looking for someone passionate, someone who was the best-of-the-best. I was neither. I desperately wanted to be a part of something special – to be part of a team that would nurture my talent in a way that allowed me to grow my confidence.

And you know what? I wasn’t going to find it by looking to other people.

So, I quit my job.

It was one of the most difficult decisions I’ve made in my life because I felt like I was making the wrong one. There were so many people telling me not to quit unless I had another job lined up – but how on Earth was I ever going to get another job when I hated myself so much?

I didn’t quit because I hated my job. I quit because I hated myself. I quit because I wanted to find my own confidence without looking to other people. Instant gratification is a poisonous thing. I think I’ve become so accustomed to looking at others for approval that I’ve lost the ability to be proud of my own achievements.

Despite the fact that I don’t have a full-time job right now, I’m happy. Before, I was afraid. Afraid of judgement, mostly. I feel like there’s this perception out there that if you’re not employed full-time, then you’re a talentless and worthless person that’s amounting to nothing.

No matter what decision you make, you have to make the most of it. There’s no use lingering on regrets because they’ll never push you forward – they’ll only drag you back. Just because you’ve closed one door, it doesn’t mean that it’ll be closed forever. I’m very grateful that despite the fact that I quit my full-time job, I’ve been given new opportunities that wouldn’t have presented themselves otherwise. Now I get to focus on what makes me happy and what brings me satisfaction.

I’ve learned the hard way that quitting your job without a solid backup plan isn’t the end of the world. So long as you keep your eyes out for new opportunities, there’s always something to be done… and sometimes, you just have to take some time to focus on your happiness than worry about what society thinks.

What’s that cliché phrase? Something about you having to love yourself before anyone else can love you. Yeah, that.

Until next time,

India is the fastest growing start up nation in world: Sundar Pichai

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Sunday visited the Google headquarters and interacted with CEO Sundar Pichai, and Google co-founder Larry Page and former CEO Eric Schmidt.

Modi was given a tour of Google and their four critical projects and their value for Digital India, he tweeted. “But it is India that’s now undergoing its own revolution”, he said in a YouTube video. More than 20 young people are also expected to receive a new award to recognise contributions to their respective fields at the Sinda Excellence Awards – now into its 24th edition.

Googlers were “very excited” about the visit, Mr Pichai had said earlier.

The the event, Google chief Sundar Pichai also spoke about the company teaming up with the Indian Railways and emphasised on how Chrome topped the charts in India, before it became the most widely used browser across the world.

“That is the way to go in a country with one billion cell phones and use of smart phones growing at high double digit rates”.

At Googleplex, Modi also witnessed the start of a 15-hour hackathon or a marathon software coding session with some 150 Indian programmers looking to produce software and applications relevant to India for Modi’s Digital India and Skill India missions.

The 43-year-old IIT alumnus said it is not just being on line, it is about what you get online.

“Driving technology forward would really improve people’s lives in India and all around the world”, Pichai said.

Partnering with India’s largest railway network and a major fibre internet company, Google says it will connect 100 stations before the end of 2016.

“Some of our initiatives include making our products work on low bandwidth and even offline, making the Web accessible in Indic language, providing low-cost Chromebooks in Indian schools, investing in core infrastructure and affordable smartphone with Android One”, he said.

United States and Canada reach trade deal

At the crux of the DFC concerns is the news that although Canada’s supply management system has survived the cut in the new deal, the U.S. will see an increased access to 3.5 percent of the $16 billion Canadian milk market.

A historic new trade agreement with Canada represents a “new dawn for the American auto industry” that will transform the United States back into a “manufacturing powerhouse”, President Donald Trump said Monday.

Canada also won protection from any future US auto tariffs, but the details of those protections were not clear.

Vital to OH, and North America at-large, is that the deal maintains the North American production system for automobiles, Hill said, which is important for the continental supply chain.

Kudlow said that the USMCA – in addition to new trade talks with the European Union and Japan – gives the USA a stronger hand to play in looming trade negotiations with China.

“The agricultural community is counting on our elected leaders to ensure that a safety net remains in place during these uncertain times”. USMCA requires Canada to remove a policy that made it cheaper for Canadian processors to buy domestic ultra-filtered milk, an ingredient of yogurt and cheese, along with powdered milk and milk proteins, Bloomberg reports.

O’Connor said the US needs an incentive for individual farmers not to overproduce, much like Canada’s quota system.

Kansas legislators applauded the agreement, including U.S. Rep. Roger Marshall who served as a negotiator for the deal several months ago in Mexico City.

Trump is claiming a win over an eleventh-hour trade deal with Canada which he has labelled the “most important trade deal we’ve made”.

“Throughout the campaign I promised to renegotiate NAFTA”, President Donald Trump said.

Eric Miller, an adviser on trade negotiations and president of the Rideau Potomac Strategy Group, told iPolitics the clause in the new trade deal “makes you choose between the United States and China”.

The United States, Mexico, and Canada are expected to sign the deal by the end of November, 2018.

Word of the deal came as Canadian Prime Minister Justin Trudeau convened a 10 p.m.

If no solution can be found, Mexico should put tariffs on US steel to level the playing field, Canacero said. It’s a privilege for them to do business with us.

“The economic ties between the three countries are a major contributor to each country’s financial success, and no state benefits more from the NAFTA relationship than Texas”.

Williams said one positive for dairy farmers with the new agreement is that it will open the Canadian market to more exported American dairy products.

Some dairy farmers are casting doubt that a new trade deal with Canada will make much of a difference in an American market flooded with milk

Couple Married 87 Years Reveals Their Secret To Staying Together.

Zelmyra and Herbert Fisher were married on May 13, 1924. In 2008, they made the Guinness Book of World Records for the longest marriage at 84 years. Herbert passed away in 2011 at the age of 105. Zelmyra passed a few years later in 2013 at the age of 105 as well. The couple had been married for 87 years before Herbert passed away. They were interviewed about their secrets of their successful marriage.

1. What made you realize that you could spend the rest of your lives together? Were you scared at all? With each day that passed, our relationship was more solid and secure. Divorce was NEVER an option, or even a thought.

2. How did you know your spouse was the right one for you? We grew up together and were best friends before we married. A friend is for life; our marriage has lasted a lifetime.

3. Is there anything you would do differently after more than 80 years of marriage? We wouldn’t change a thing. There’s no secret to our marriage, we just did what was needed for each other and our family.

4. What is your advice to someone who is trying to keep the faith that Mr. Right is really out there? Zelmyra: Mine was just around the corner! He is never too far away, so keep the faith – when you meet him, you’ll know.

5. What was the best piece of marriage advice you ever received? Respect, support, and communicate with each other. Be faithful, honest, and true. Love each other with ALL of your heart.

6. What are the most important attributes of a good spouse? Zelmyra: A hard worker and a good provider. The 1920s were hard, but Herbert wanted and provided the best for us. I married a good man!

7. What is your best Valentine’s Day memory? Zelmyra: I cook dinner every day. Herbert left work early and surprised me; he cooked dinner for me! He is a VERY good cook! Herbert: I said that I was going to cook dinner for her and [that] she could relax. The look on her face and clean plate made my day!

8. You got married very young – how did you both manage to grow as individuals yet not grow apart as a couple? Everyone who plants a seed and harvests the crop celebrates together. We are individuals, but accomplish more together.

9. What is your fondest memory of your 85-year marriage? Our legacy: 5 children, 10 grandchildren, 9 great-grandchildren, and 1 great-great grandchild.

10. Does communicating get easier with time? How do you keep your patience? The children are grown, so we talk more now. We can enjoy our time on the porch or our rocking chairs – together.

11. How did you cope when you had to be physically separated for long periods of time? Herbert: We were apart for 2 months when Z was hospitalized with our 5th child. It was the most difficult time of my life. Zelmyra’s mother helped me with the house and the other children, otherwise I would have lost my mind.

12. At the end of bad relationship day, what is the most important thing to remind yourselves? Remember marriage is not a contest, never keep a score. God has put the two of you together on the same team to win.

13. Is fighting important? Never physically! Agree that it’s okay to disagree, and fight for what really matters. Learn to bend – not break!

14. What’s the one thing you have in common that transcends everything else? We are both Christians and believe in God. Marriage is a commitment to the Lord.We pray with and for each other every day.

Relationships are work and sometimes it's not easy, but it can definitely be done. We can all use this helpful advice. Share this post with your friends and family.

Your personal style is NOT a hodge podge of just about anything and everything that is produced by Anthropologie.  There are certain items that you gravitate toward, love and wear (on repeat) over the years... and there's always a pattern to the madness.  I suggest coining your personal style, first and then expand with "push" pieces -- items that expand and add depth to your look.  Not sure what your personal style is?  Forget searching for trends around you, examine your own closet -- or Pinterest boards!

  • What reoccurring themes do you see?
  • Does your "dream" (Pinterest" wardrobe reflect what is in your closet?

I encourage my clients to coin their personal style in one to two words.  For example, my style is a mix between 1990's hit singers Posh Spice and Sporty Spice.  And a dash of the White Power Ranger on my best days.  Because why not?

For now, we’ll stick with Posh n’ Sporty.  And that’s what my Pinterest reflects:

My “Posh Pins” show a versatile, chic, laid back but luxurious style with pins that burst with pops of solid colors, leopard prints, leopards with lots of studded shoes and bags mixed in:

I’ve got a Style Your Fit Life Pinterest board — which highlights my love for black work out gear, all things lululemon, plus cozy, comfy post-gym pieces.

Annnd a board JUST for my killer kicks selection:

i freak for sneaks

From this screen shot of sneakers, it's clear that I:
- love neutrals
- appreciate funky patterns
- gravitate toward tiny, spectacular details.

If you haven’t begun to use Pinterest, think of it as your virtual vision board just for your closet or specifically for ____ whatever else you want to focus on.  If nothing else, you’re generating ideas and storing them in a visual way.  You can’t lose.  Pin away!

Flanders (Dutch: Vlaanderen, French: Flandre) is one of the regions and communities of Belgium and also a historical geographical region located in parts of present-day Belgium, France and the Netherlands. The demonym for Flanders is Flemish, while someone from Flanders is a Fleming. Brussels is the capital of Flanders.

Over the course of history, the geographical territory that was called "Flanders" has varied. From around 1000 AD, Flanders historically meant to English-speaking peoples the land situated along the North Sea from the Strait of Dover to the Scheldt estuary with ill-defined southern borders. It came to refer specifically to the County of Flanders, lasting from 862 to 1795, whose territory was situated in the northwestern part of what is now Belgium (the Belgian provinces of West Flanders and East Flanders), with extensive portions in what is now northern France (French Flanders), and a small area that is now part of the Netherlands (Zeelandic Flanders). Through marriage, the County of Flanders was joined with most of the rest of the Low Countries around 1400 AD, and it lost its independence. Most of the county's territory became part of an independent Belgium in 1830, and during the 19th and 20th centuries, it became increasingly commonplace to refer to the entire Dutch-speaking and northern part of Belgium as "Flanders", including the Belgian parts of the Duchy of Brabant and Limburg. In the late 20th century, Belgium became a federal state in which the Dutch-speaking part was given autonomy as the Flemish Community (Dutch: Vlaamse Gemeenschap) and the Flemish Region (Dutch: Vlaams Gewest); these two entities were effectively merged, and Flanders now refers to the territory of the Flemish Community, which additionally has partial jurisdiction over Brussels.

Flanders has figured prominently in European history. During the late Middle Ages, Flanders' trading towns (notably Ghent, Bruges and Ypres) made it one of the richest and most urbanized parts of Europe, weaving the wool of neighbouring lands into cloth for both domestic use and export. As a consequence, a very sophisticated culture developed, with impressive achievements in the arts and architecture, rivaling those of northern Italy. As part of Belgium, Flanders was initially the poorer half of the country to industrialized Wallonia. In the second half of the twentieth century, however, there has been a gradual shift of political and economic power to Flanders, which, having modernized its economy, is now more wealthy and prosperous than its southern counterpart.

Geographically, Flanders is generally flat, and has a small section of coast on the North Sea. Flanders borders France to the west, the Netherlands to the north and east, and Wallonia to the south. The Brussels Capital Region is enclaved within the Flemish Region, while Voeren is an exclave of Flanders between Wallonia and the Netherlands. Flanders is agriculturally fertile and densely populated, with a population density of almost 500 people per square kilometer (1200 per square mile).

Pokémon Party Invitations

For Ava's recent Pokémon themed birthday party I made the invitations in the style of Pokémon cards. They were such a fun invitation and Ava's friends were pretty excited to receive them.

Here's a look at the invitations...

I made the invitations double sided with the regular Pokémon backing on the back of the invite. I printed them out the same size as Pokémon cards. Just like the real thing!

In fact, the cards looked so real, that Ava had to hand them out at school in envelopes, as Pokémon cards are banned during school hours. She was a little worried that a teacher might think she was trading Pokémon cards with friends and confiscate them!

I made the invitations in Photoshop using a Pokémon card template that I downloaded. You can find the template here. I added the party details to the card and added a photo of Ava which I had edited to make her look hand drawn like a cartoon.

If you'd like to make something similar but aren't familiar with Photoshop, you can use this website to make something similar: http://www.mypokecard.com/en/

What do you think? Aren't they fun?

More Pokemon party fun coming up!

Hair Today Gone Tomorrow

Van's hair has been flowing wild and free least since Van's "Forever" has existed.  Yesterday, Van willingly learned a lesson that's neither hair nor there when he went to his Daddy's Barber Shop and got his locks cut back to The Great American normal for children's hair.  Mom Sarah created this photo collage.

I'm thinking about fathers. I just finished a short story by a writer who was disappointed by his father. His father was abusive and died young from too much alcohol. Years later, the son was contacted by one of his father's war time buddies wanting to know about his father's life. They began a correspondence. Soon a picture arrived of the four Navy buddies at a bar with the son's dad smiling boyishly in the middle of the pack. Eventually the correspondence led to a meeting with the three remaining war time buddies; three seniors around a kitchen table with the one middle aged son. In the reunion picture shared with the story, the son took the father's place in the line-up. The story ends, "And I am in my father's place."

Are we sometimes destined to do that as sons? Do we take our father's place?

I've considered myself fortunate as I've had several father figures in my life, male mentors that were there at the time I needed them. They weren't a replacement for my father, but they modeled a different way of being male in the world that could be integrated with early family experiences and personal genes.

There was Randy and Ken, who both taught me how to find the words I needed and to speak with confidence. There was Ed, who helped me learn how to respect rather than conquer a mountain top and Richard who showed me what  patient and untroubled crisis management looked like. There was Bob, who modeled how to balance joy with pain, laughter with suffering and be a truly welcoming neighbor. There was Harivalah, who instructed me in what justice and service looked like and Ramachandran who showed me the color of wisdom. There was a second Bob, who always had my back, even when I probably didn't deserve it. And there was Narayan, who made me recognize the dignity and integrity of Truth.
They were all my elders, like my father. They were all instrumental in shaping who I would become. When I think about it, I really have taken their place in a world that needs what my father and each of the others had to offer. I've tried to integrate a piece of them into my own space in life. Most of them are gone now, so someone has to take their place, don't they?

How fortunate for me! How privileged to have so many male models when many young men have none. It makes me wish that all men could be elders and mentors, as well as parents, to younger men. Whether it's volunteering as a big brother, coaching a sports team or working with a church youth group; young men need male role models, beyond the primary one at home. And they need the kind of father figures who can share the best of what it means to be male with them.

Another wish I have for men is that they could be more involved in the birth process. It is so intimate for mothers and usually so distant for fathers. It makes one wonder if that's why the male parenting role is often the distant, authoritarian one ("Just wait till your father gets home."); with the mother alone for nurturing and comforting the children.

And it makes me wonder if the absent birth father from the creation of life, might also be a reason for the seeming male ease with the taking of life. Men simply don't know, intimately and physically, what it takes to create life. Usually the male role is finished quickly. Maybe it takes nine seconds, not nine months.

My major research paper in Seminary was on "Human and Divine Fathers." It was a study of Jonathan Edwards and William Adams Brown. My interest was to see if there was a fatherly resemblance. Does one's human father influence one's conception of God, the divine father? There weren't any clear conclusions from the paper, although Edwards was fertile ground for further exploration. Consider his well known work, "Sinners in the Hands of an Angry God."

Without certain evidence, I'd still make a generalization. Most authoritarian human fathers help create authoritarian conceptions of God. You need especially loving and nurturing mothers or lots of father figures to balance the scales and give God a bit of grace, a bit of forgiveness, some humor and love. And authoritarian males like not only sons who obey and Gods who have strict codes of discipline, but also rulers who carry a big stick. Compassion is not their forte and punishment is understood as justice.

Unfortunately for sons and nations, confined to authoritarian father conceptions of divinity, they don't know that God is so much larger and glorious than those limited realities. All our Godly metaphors pale in comparison to: "When I look at thy heavens, the work of thy fingers, the moon and the stars set in their place by thee, what is man that thou shouldst remember him, mortal man that thou shouldst care for him?" Or, as 1 John says so well and simply, "God is Love."

[Show/Hide Right Column]

The islands were probably observed by Luis VÃ¡ez de Torres in 1606, but Malay and Chinese sailors may have visited the islands earlier. Louis Antoine de Bougainville named them in 1768 for Louis XV, the king of France. Visits were also paid by Admiral Bruni d'Entrecasteaux in 1793 and Captain Owen Stanley in 1849. The 1942 Battle of Coral Sea was fought nearby, after Japanese occupation in the same year.
