If I was going to pick one square to explain the quirkiness, vibrancy and ethos of San Francisco, it would be Square 5.

Here lies the heart and soul of San Francisco. This square mile encapsulates the city's beginnings, its forced acceptance of ethnic diversity, its independent entrepreneurial spirit, its love of life.

A sociologist could work for years to unpeel the layers of these blocks, which include the major portion of Chinatown, North Beach, Fisherman's Wharf and Jackson Square.

It's where Portsmouth Square is located. Today it's known as the heart of Chinatown, but when it was established in the early 1800s in the Mexican community known as Yerba Buena, it was the emerging city's first public square. It's where the first public school in California was erected and where the discovery of gold was announced. It's the focus of an area that's grown, expanded, adapted and remains vibrant even today.

Square 5 also includes what was known as the Barbary Coast, the red-light district. It was the site of dozens of houses of prostitution, which I contend have contributed to our present-day attitudes about food.

The various houses would try to distinguish themselves by offering a "free lunch" to patrons, who would then go upstairs to be entertained by the girls; food and pleasure became inextricably linked in San Francisco as nowhere else in the country.

Glimmers of this freewheeling lifestyle can still be found on Broadway in North Beach and in such businesses as the Saloon on upper Grant, which is the city's oldest bar. Today Square 5 also includes places like 15 Romolo, the first of a new breed of dive bars that take cocktails seriously.

Chinatown was established in 1848, the same year the Gold Rush began. A few years later, old St. Mary's was built, the first church in the United States to cater to the Asian community. And the firsts continued: In 1920, Hang Ah Tea Room opened on Pagoda Place, supposedly the first dim sum house in the area.

Italian immigrants eventually moved next door, with a culture worlds apart from the Chinese and the freewheeling Barbary Coast, yet they learned to get along. Many of the Italians earned their living by fishing and crabbing. At that time, the city ended at Jackson Square, but in the late 1800s the land was filled in and North Beach was born.

Today the Barbary Coast ventures have been replaced by some of the finest antique shops in the city, along with the four-star restaurant Quince and its sister, Cotogna. Coi, another four-star restaurant, is located in the shadows of the seedy Broadway strip.

Fisherman's Wharf as we know it today began in 1916 when Castagnola's graduated from a crab stand to a full-service restaurant, setting the stage for what has become one of the biggest tourist attractions in the city - and the United States.

In later years, Square 5 became a petri dish of experimentation and change, giving rise to the Beat Generation in the late 1940s and 1950s. That led to San Francisco becoming the center of the hippie movement in the 1960s and a mecca for gays in the 1970s.

Considering how all these threads are woven together in Square 5, it was difficult to choose one place as the standout. Yet in the end we picked Graffeo Coffee because it represents the type of creative and entrepreneurial spirit the city embraces.

Opened in 1935, Graffeo is the oldest artisan roaster in the United States. It speaks to our love of innovation - that goes back to Molinari, which made the first air-dried salami in 1896. You could argue that this creative spirit is what has made the Bay Area the think tank of the Internet.

The Beatnik era and the coffeehouse culture are important signposts of the city's development. And Square 5 is the incubator of change that is San Francisco.

Not marble, nor the gilded monuments Not marble, nor the gold-plated shrines
Of princes, shall outlive this powerful rhyme; Of princes shall outlive the power of poetry;
But you shall shine more bright in these contents You shall shine more bright in these verses
Than unswept stone besmear'd with sluttish time. Than on dust-covered gravestones, ravaged by time.
When wasteful war shall statues overturn, When devastating war shall overturn statues,
And broils root out the work of masonry, And conflicts destroy the mason's handiwork,
Nor Mars his sword nor war's quick fire shall burn the cause of war (Mars) nor the effects of war (fire) shall destroy
The living record of your memory. The living record of your memory (this poem).
'Gainst death and all-oblivious enmity Against death and destruction, which render people forgotten,
Shall you pace forth; your praise shall still find room Shall you push onward; praise of you will always find a place,
Even in the eyes of all posterity Even in the eyes of future generations
That wear this world out to the ending doom. That survive until the end of humanity.
So, till the judgment that yourself arise, So, until you arise on Judgment Day,
You live in this, and dwell in lovers' eyes. You are immortalized in this poetry, and continue to live in lovers' eyes.

Not marble, nor the gilded monuments (1): This line is likely an allusion to the lavish tombs of English royalty; in particular, to the tomb of Henry VII in Westminster Abbey, which contains a large sarcophagus made of black marble with gilded effigies of King Henry and his queen, Elizabeth of York.

unswept (4): note that the pronunciation here is /UN swept/.

with sluttish time (4): i.e., by filthy time.
In Elizabethan England the word "sluttish" could describe either a sexually promiscuous woman or a grubby, unkempt woman. Here Shakespeare personifies Time as the latter.

broils (7): angry, violent quarrels or riots.

all-oblivious enmity (9): i.e., the war and decay that would render the subject of the poem forgotten.

Sonnet 55 is one of Shakespeare's most famous works and a noticeable deviation from other sonnets in which he appears insecure about his relationships and his own self-worth. Here we find an impassioned burst of confidence as the poet claims to have the power to keep his friend's memory alive evermore.

Some critics argue that Shakespeare's sudden swell of pride in his poetry was strictly artificial - a blatant attempt to mimic the style of the classical poets. "It is difficult on any other hypothesis to reconcile the inflated egotism of such a one as 55 with the unassuming dedications to the Venus and Lucrece, 1593 and 1594, or with the expressions of humility found in the sonnets themselves, e.g. 32 and 38" (Halliwell-Phillipps, 304).

However, many believe that such an analysis ignores Shakespeare's paramount desire to immortalize his friend in verse, and not himself (as was the motive of most classical poets). "The Romans say: Because of my poem I will never die. Shakespeare says: Because of my poem you will never die....What distinguishes Shakespeare is that he values the identity of the beloved; he recognizes that the beloved has his own personal immortality, in no way dependent on poetry" (Martin, 158).

By focusing on the word live, Shakespeare uses the language itself to emphasize his authorial intentions. Notice the word choices of outlive (2), living (8), oblivious (9), and live (14).

Despite its tremendous popularity, Sonnet 55 has its detractors. One of the most interesting attacks on the sonnet came from a critic named H. T. S. Forrest, who despised the poem and, in particular, lines 10-14. These lines, he wrote, are
slovenly, far-fetched, and tautologous verses which would be mercilessly criticized if they appeared as the handiwork of the minutest of the minor poets of today. Why "even"? To talk of printed matter "finding room" in people's eyes is not a little ridiculous. In line 11 the poet's verses are going to be looked upon by the whole of posterity, but in line 14 only by the 'lovers' section thereof. And line 13 is hopelessly ungrammatical, even if we accept Beeching's explanation that that = when (Forrest, 44).

Did You Know? ... "Of the countless editions of the works of Shakespeare that show a frontispiece likeness of the poet, it is a singular fact that by far the greater number favour the 'Chandos' portrait. The face and features of Shakespeare as 'imaged' in that portrait are those with which his readers are probably most familiar. It is not easy to account for this, since the Chandos Portrait is certainly not the first in point of genuineness, whatever may be its degree of artistic merit. Possibly it satisfies more fully the popular ideal of the likeness of a great creative poet than does the bust or print just referred to. Be that as it may, the 'Chandos ' portrait, for various reasons, more than justifies its being kept in the custody of the nation as a very rare and valuable relic of its greatest dramatist."

Italia Ricci raises breast cancer awareness with a bob — and you can, too

Julie Sprankles is a freelance writer living in the storied city of Charleston, SC. When she isn't slinging sass for SheKnows, she enjoys watching campy SyFy creature features (Pirahnaconda, anyone?), trolling the internet for dance work...

This is how Italia Ricci honors her cancer-stricken character on Chasing Life

As the star of ABC Family's Chasing Life, Italia Ricci plays April Carver — a quick-witted, hardworking 24-year-old fighting to overcome leukemia. And that connection to cancer through her character is inspiring Ricci to act in other ways, as well.

This week, Ricci had her hair styled by JCPenney Salon artistic director, Nick Stenson, in Glendale, California, to kick off a special partnership between JCPenney and City of Hope.

"[JCPenney] is donating $1 from every salon haircut to support the City of Hope breast cancer awareness program, which is amazing," said Ricci. "And you can also get a free pink highlight, which I didn't know about or I totally would have done it today."

11 Women turn their mastectomy scars into beautiful tattoos

Called "Cuts for Hope," the promotion runs Oct. 11 through Oct. 18 at all JCP salons nationwide, with a portion of proceeds from every haircut and trim being donated (up to $100,000) to City of Hope.

For Ricci, who'd never worked directly with City of Hope prior to hearing about the partnership, Cuts for Hope sounded like a great cause to support. "Everybody needs their hair cut," she said, pointing out how simple JC Penney makes it for the public to participate.

"It's an easy way for everyone to get involved, because it's not coming directly out of your pocket. You're doing something you need to do, but for a better reason this week."

Since taking on the role of April in Chasing Life, Ricci has found she can't help but step up her altruistic efforts.

"I joke that this show is making me put on my good person hat," she said, "because it's things that I would always want to do, but before this I had never lit that fire or taken that first step to actually doing something that could make a difference in people's lives."

Carson Daly's very personal fight against cancer

That all changed, though, when she began to receive mail from fans about how much they are affected by Chasing Life and how much they can relate to the character. The young adult cancer community, it would seem, is really responding to the show and feels represented by April.

And that was enough to light the fire in Ricci.

"I'm trying my best to advocate as many organizations and charities as I can to help show my support to the cancer community, so I was honored," she explained of being asked to kick off Cuts for Hope.

"City of Hope is sort of the whole package for people dealing with this illness — and not just people who are directly dealing with this, but also the families and friends and anybody who is holding the hand of someone taking this journey," she said. "So I really respected their entire organization and I wanted to be a part of this."

Ricci, who has been splitting her off-season from the show between charity work and planning her wedding to The Flash's Robbie Amell, says her role on Chasing Life and the charity work it inspires help remind her just how fortunate she is to be cancer-free.

Girl Crush: How Yael Cohen Braun is fighting the C-word with the F-word

She'll be heading to Vancouver soon to start filming a movie and she's looking forward to the time away.

"Even when we're not filming, I'm doing charity work and events and doing my best to be an advocate that is worthy of telling April's story," she said, "and I know it sounds unfair because a lot of people can't take a break from it, but it'll be nice to have a couple of weeks to pretend to be somebody other than April."

Still, Ricci wouldn't trade that role or the advocacy it inspires — like the Cuts for Hope program — for the world.

"Honestly, at the end of the day I feel like it does more for me and my soul than I am ever going to do for the people I am trying to help, 'cause I am just so honored and proud to be in the position I'm in and able to make the difference that I'm trying to."

True Blood 8-minute sneak peek!

Professional TV junky Deanna Barnert covers all corner of Tinseltown but good television is her passion. Visiting sets, interviewing industry players and critiquing the final product are all in a day's work, as is losing an evening — or ...

Sookie's True Blood spoiler alert

There's been much chatter about the witchery of True Blood season four. In prep for this Sunday's premiere, however, HBO has released the first eight minutes of the episode and it's all about Sookie Stackhouse in fairy land! Watch the eight-minute True Blood teaser here. Plus, catch True Blood episode two online right after the big premiere!

Sookie's True Blood spoiler alert

Wowser, this True Blood season four extended sneak peek will get your blood boiling! Things start out "lovely" as a picture, but by the end of the eight-minute clip, Sookie (Anna Paquin) is facing fire and brimstone.

In the HBO teaser, Sookie starts off in awe over the glorious fairy land, but our Sookie is never one to be fooled. She smart mouths her fairy godmother Claudine (Lara Pulver, BBC's Robin Hood) and is instantly suspicious of the glowing fruit in fairy land. When she spots her MIA grandpa Earl (Gary Cole, Desperate Housewives, The Good Wife), she soon realizes she's right: Much is off in this mystical haven, starting with the delectable and dangerous lumiere fruit. Thanks to the forbidden fruit, her gramps believes he's been gone for hours!

As soon as Sookie wises up, everything shifts. Intimidating Queen Mab (Rebecca Wisocky, 90210, The Mentalist) appears. When Sookie resists, the paradise crumbles around them and she and gramps find themselves on the run. Fairy Claude (Neil Hopkins, Lost) saves the day -- or has she been tricked again?

Queen Mab wants to seal off the fairy land from the human world and get some fairy breeding going; Claude believes fairies should fly free. Check out the clip below to see who you think Sookie should trust.

True Blood premieres Sunday, June 26 at 9 p.m. on HBO and fans don't have to wait a week for the next episode! You Smell Like Dinner will become available on immediately following the season four premiere on Sunday.

Josh Radnor makes Broadway comeback

Source : ANI
Last Updated: Wed, Jun 11, 2014 11:15 hrs

Josh Radnor is returning to Broadway, according to reports.

The former 'How I Met Your Mother' star is set to take the lead in the 2013 Pulitzer Prize-winning play 'Disgraced' by Ayad Akhtar, starring alongside Gretchen Mol, Karen Pittman, and Hari Dhillon, Contactmusic reported.

The actor made his Broadway debut more than a decade ago opposite Kathleen Turner in 2002's 'The Graduate' and he will be following in the footsteps of his 'How I Met Your Mother' co-star Neil Patrick Harris, who is currently riding high on the 'Great White Way' in a Tony Award-winning production of 'Hedwig and the Angry Inch'.

Disgraced, about a Muslim-American lawyer and his artist wife who have an explosive conversation about beliefs, race and identity with another couple over dinner, opens at the Lyceum Theatre on September 27. (ANI)

Sonic Generations Demo Greenlit For, At Least, Australia

By Spencer . May 6, 2011 . 12:35pm

SG_ghz_cl_22_medA leak from Australia’s Classification Board hints that Sega will release a downloadable demo for Sonic Generations. The rating board inspected Sonic Generations (Demo) and deemed it acceptable for all-ages.

Can’t say we’re shocked since Sega released downloadable demos for Sonic the Hedgehog (the 2006 game with Silver) and Sonic Unleashed. But, why would the Classification Board rate it now? Seems a bit early unless Sega is going to surprise Sonic fans by releasing the E3 demo on PlayStation Network and Xbox Live during the show. That’s just a guess, though, Sega has not confirmed or announced a demo for Sonic Generations.

Sonic Generations is scheduled for release this holiday season on PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360.

Read more stories about & & & on Siliconera.

  • ninjaonizuka

    i just can not wait for this i think sega finally got it right it wud be perfect with a choa garden and a hub world like sonic advent DX (one of my faves :)

  • Releasing it during the show would be awesome, though coming months way before Holiday 2011 is just l337suxx0rz. Anyway, I cant wait.

  • Chow

    I hope the levels tell a straightforward story (for each Sonic) with appropriate transitions between Zones. Sonic 3 & Knuckles was the epitome of speechless storytelling in this matter.

    On that note, imagine they pull some sort of mega twist a la Turtles Forever near the end (without spoiling that movie for anybody, I won’t mention it). Would that not be epic?

  • AnimeRemix

    Hoping for a American demo to be released hopefully during E3… I want this Sonic game badly! Classic Sonic + Modern Sonic = WIN. Now, I wonder when you start up the game, will it have that classic SEEEEEEGGGGGGGAAAAAAA!!!! opening, or the newer/modern Sega opening that they usually use nowadays. =S

  • This might be something like SEGA tried last year with Sonic 4. Give us an early try and then iron out the parts people complain about most online. I got to give credit to SEGA for at least trying to listen to us, if not always learning from fan input.

IT or information technology has wired in every quarter of the globe. Technology has become the driving force for any operation or process from booking tickets for travel, studying through an online university or listening to a favorite song from the mobile.

As the world embarks on this new digital era, prospects for technology professionals are immense. From programming to software development, testing, networking, software engineering, there is a wide scope of opportunities in the IT space, handling the core concepts to peripheral management. The technology acumen has greater application in today’s business scenario.

To become a part of this ever-growing network of businesses on the technology bandwagon, a degree program such as the MCA is vital. More so, with competition raging with better resources and professionals, it becomes crucial to remain steadfast on the career track.  Here, a distance MCA degree will multiply the output of academics and career growth, giving the double boost for progress.  There are many advantages of MCA degree, which give students and working professionals, the “clicking” edge.

Pursuing a distance MCA degree gives an insight into the basics and advanced levels of technology. In addition to giving a strong foundation in computers and their application; MCA coverage includes different programming tools, the software and the elementary knowledge of computer hardware. Apart from programming languages, the distance MCA curriculum also equips students to learn about the different layers of networking of small and large internet spaces, the modular software architecture and other aspects, which form the cornerstone of any major or minor software functionality.

The essence of Information technology and “technology-driven” courses are well substantiated. In addition, the distance education option helps working students and professionals to remain on track, on their career-path, giving the course the best of both worlds.

Personal Cell Phone Fans! - click for more
Personal Cell Phone Fans! - click for more Personal Cell Phone Fans!
Really! Have you ever sat through a talk or meeting with NOTHING moving except the speaker's mouth? I found little cell phone fans to help you keep your cool!!!! 3-inch blades -- all different bright colors -- that plug into the charging hole of your cell phone, these little guys MOVE THE AIR!

Something fun and functional to have in your tote bag, desk, purse or even cosmetic bag, they feature a tiny adapter that plugs into the fan, and works in EITHER I-Phones or Androids. It most likely plugs into your Tablet or E-reader, too. They even have a touch on-off switch and come in a little zip-locking clear bag to keep it safe in your bag. You can still use your phone while your personal mini-fan is plugged in, it is silent, weighs nothing, and doesn't use lots of battery strength.

Bead-Charm-Button Storage Box - click for more Bead-Charm-Button Storage Box
Wow, this is a petite and functional storage system for teeny tiny stuff!!!! Our 6 x 3-1/2 x 1-1/2 inch snapping closure box holds 25 different treats. Clear, so you can see what's inside, open to reveal removable dividers that separate 5 towers of screw-top jars. Each mini-jar is approx 1 inch round and 1/2 an inch high. They screw together -- so the lid on one becomes the bottom of the next.

VERY secure, and also clear so you can see what's inside... these even work for wet creams and lotions in your cosmetic travel bag! Everything is safe, organized, and compact! The little box weighs about 8 ounches.

Lighted Needle Threader - click for more
Lighted Needle Threader
Well, if this isn't the funniest little thing! It is a wire needle threader -- with a protective cover over the wire -- that is attached to an LED light. Remove the plastic protective cover, turn on the switch for the light (it stays lit and you don't have to keep holding it at a strange angle to keep the little light on) The light IS AIMED at the wire threader -- so the eye of your needle is illuminated! You actually have a chance to SEE the hole in the needle to thread it!!!!!

This has a little hole so you can stitch it to/attach it to/ tether it to... something! It is 1-1/2 inches long with the cover. The lid snaps on and off -- very secure.
We laughed when we saw this at Market, but I tried it right there in the aisle -- I had my needles and scissors with me... so this was tested before purchasing! Besides, we think this is the ultimate baby-sized gadget!!!! What a fun thing to get all your friends -- and it's affordable, too!

Small Wooden Cranking Tape Measure - click for more Small Wooden Cranking Tape Measure
Here is a fun little antique-inspired little doo-dad! This is a wooden 'spool' with a rotating top to retrieve the 32-inch tape measure that pulls out from it! Pull your measure out, then twist the knob on top, and the tiny tape rolls back up into the cylinder!

A fun little curiousity, neat for a sewing tool collection, pretty in a sewing basket, cool on a shelf beside other tools... it'd even be neat framed in a shadow box of needlework 'stuff!'

*Tomato* Pin Cushions - click for more
Embroidery Scissors, Paris and London Sewing Sets and *Tomato* Pin Cushions
How cute are these????! We have *The Classic Tomato Pin Cushion* re-dressed with embroidery scissors on its fabric, Pink & Black Paris fabric, Taupe and Creme Parisian Couture hand sketches (I love that one!), or the classic red, navy and black of London's vintage telephone booths, Metro stations, and British flag! Each stuffed tomato cushion measures approx 3 inches in diameter and is two inches high. There is a little green felt loop on top. along with the 'greens.' Tufted into six sections -- each comes packaged in a clear gift box, and is BEGGING to be useful and poked with your pins and needles!

Hand-Crocheted Animal Tape Measures - click for more Hand-Crocheted Animal Tape Measures
These little guys are back in stock again, we think they are just the cutest! Retractable 60-inch and metric tape measures, each is covered with hand crocheting... to look like either a sock monkey, bumble bee or ladybug! The monkey has the sweetest little cap on, complete with tassel trim, and the bee is wearing a beaded crown -- because she's the queen!!!

Great for your stitching bag... I have one in my kitchen drawer because it STAYS there. (I think the household perception is that it is not a 'real, serious, metal 100ft measure! But it works for me!!!)

Cute Spool Ends As Needle Minders - click for more
Cute Spool Ends -- As Needle Minders!
Ok... if you're handy, and you have cool old spools laying around, a saw and strong cement and magnets... you can make these yourself. If you're short on saws and time... just get a few of these!!! Fun 1-inch spool ends -- with cool retro-labels on them -- these are Minders to keep track of stray pins, needles and scissors!

Small *token* gifts, something cute for the inside of a sewing case, good refrigerator magnets, these are very *needle-worky* related!!!!!! Asst labels, we will try not to duplicate if your order contains multiples.

Microfiber Glasses Cleaning Cloths - click for more
Microfiber Glasses Cleaning Cloths
Back in Stock with a fresh, new, cute scissor design! We LOVE these! Every needlework tote bag needs one, and so does your purse. 5-1/2 x 6 Microfiber cleans magnifying and eyeglass lenses beautifully -- even your phone and e-screens!

They now come in a 2-1/2 x 4 clear plastic storage envelope -- perfect to keep it protected. The scissor and pin cushion design is a stitched image in deep red shades; it's functional and fun!

A Microfiber Sampler to Clean Your Glasses! - click for more
A Sampler to Clean Your Glasses!
Wow... this is the coolest little 5-1/2 x 6-1/4 mini Micro-Fiber cloth to clean your eyeglasses, magnifier lens, telephone or e-something thingie, or computer screen! It just so happens to be printed with a stitching image from an antique sampler from 1829! Every stitcher needs at least three of these -- one for your purse, stitching bag and dresser drawer.

Just something little and fun I found, we're offering a Baker's Dozen on these (13 for the price of 12), because I can think of a million people who would love to have at least one of them!!!

Needle ID Cards - click for more Needle ID Cards - click for more
Needle ID Cards
Wow... this is a neat new 'gadget-y' Stitching Aid! Super-functional, this is a set of 6 cards approx 2 x 3-1/2 inches in size that help you identify your needles! Presented in a frosted plastic envelope (stays clean and organized and unbent in your stitching bag) each of the 6 heavy-card stock cards features a bit of needle history on one side, as well as the specific properties of its featured needle. On the reverse, you'll find images of actual-sized needles, along with their particular size. Now you can identify all those stray needles you have poked into your cushions.

BUT, BUT, BUT, what is also really cool about this set of cards, is simple information. If you have a pattern that calls for a particular needle -- like a Milliners in a size 5 -- here is a picture of one -- its exact size. You can tell what it's supposed to look like, and if you have another needle in your stash that will work for the task. Very cool little cards to ID Betweens, Chenille, Sharps, Milliners, English Crewel Embroidery and Tapestry! Every Stitcher would love a set of these!!!!

Made With Love Charms - click for more *Made With Love* Charms
I found some neat little 3/8 inch heart-shaped charms that say *Made With Love* on both sides! Nothing elegant, they are cool, however, because you can attach one to absolutely every thing you stitch... sometimes beside your signature or initials, sometimes... just an added trinket appearing someplace unexpected.

Tiny, shiny dressings to accent the fact that you've hand-made something special -- complete with love -- I thought they were kind of fun! Packed in bags of 12 silver-toned charms, they're only $3.95 a bag... but they look like a million bucks on your finished creations!

Needle-Safe -- click to see a moreNeedle-Safe
These have been around 'since the beginning of time!' 2-1/4 x 4-1/2 x 5/8 an inch in size... they are pretty plain looking, but SUPER handy! Opening it up, you'll find both sides are lined with magnets to hold needles. I have my scissors with a little fob on them in there... needles, threaders, a little highlighter sheet, a small crystal nail file...you can get a lot of stuff on one of these! Now, the hinge is plastic. The minute you drop this for the first time, it will break.

There isn't a shopowner in sight at a class at Market that isn't carrying around one of these that broke in their shop! We all have 'em... complete with rubber band around them... 'cause they're still good -- even with a broken hinge! Kind of like a 'rite of passage!' I whip mine out of my stitching bag going thru the metal detectors at the airport, and it ALWAYS goes thru with no problems! Definitely an 'Old Faithful!'

Do You Have A Clover Yet?
This is the coolest little gadget by the Clover Company! Choose from an antiqued gold or antiqued silver thread cutter that feels heavy for its teeny size! Look closely, there is a recessed, protected razor blade -- circular -- inside, and lots of slits around the edges to insert your thread and cut! No scissors!!!!! It's decorated with flowers on both sides and there is even a loop at the top to attach to a chain or to tie onto something. Just perfect for travelling! Every stitcher's Christmas stocking needs one, as well as every stitching bag in America!!!

The Star De-Tailor
This is handy gadget, that helps you anchor short threads. Simply insert the long wire through the back of stitches, catch the too-short ends and pull them through! Great as a small needle threader, too! The star on the end is opalescent plastic, and has a tiny loop so you can attach it to something for safe keeping.

Star De-Tailor -- click to see a larger view

Acrylic Display Stand -- click to see one in actions! Acrylic Display Stands
Hey, these are cool little things!!! A wonderful way to display finished needlework... these are clear, acrylic stands that simply insert up into the bottom of your flat piece of stitchery, and hold it in place for display!!! Two sizes available, each an inch wide, the smaller one measures 2-1/4 inches high, and the larger is 4-1/4 inches.

Designed to hold up small, lighter-weight pieces... our pics show the Lizzie Kate Spring Basket Snippet, finished into a flat, square piece -- complete with pretty fabric back, a little padded batting inside, and a twisted cord edge treatment. If your piece is larger, you may want to try two stands for extra stability! Seemingly a little pricy... these are really a great alternative to bulky or expensive framing finishing... and they're re-useable!!! So... actually a great value, after all!!!

Super Strong Mini-Magnets - click for more
Super Strong Mini-Magnets
What a cute little set of turbo-magnets! Decorated with a pewter button design on one side, and a flower on the other, you can use them to hold needles onto your fabric, or the chart onto your magnetic board... or even to decorate your kitchen refrigerator! They measure a petite 1/2 in diameter, and come as a pair. They match all our pewter Tail Catchers and Laying tools, as well.

Pewter Tail Catcher - click for more Pewter Tail Catcher
This is a very cool little gadget... it helps you grab at short ends to tuck them safely away, and features a pretty needle threader. Joined by a detachable chain, notice the threader end... tuck it under threads. Then, use the hook to grab errant threads to tuck into that threader... and pull the thread to safety! Don't know if my description makes sense... but I bet you can tell from the pic the features of this pretty accessory! It matches our Stitch Removers and Laying Tools... and those new little magnets!

Hand-Turned Wooden Stiletto and Ripper Combo Hand-Turned Wooden Stiletto and Ripper Combo
OH... sleek, smooth, sooooo wonderful feeling in your hands... these are hand-made wooden tools by Suffolk Shaker Shop. With an overall length of just over 5 inches, pull off one end to reveal a SUPER (deadly!) and sharp stiletto. Use it to help tease the holes in your canvas, control corners for finishing... just be careful with that end! The other end reveals a precise seam ripper. That comes in handy so often!

The wooden casing is beautifully made of either Mulberry (that's the deeper purple and blue-ish one), Raspberry (much pinker with gray wood highlights) and Cocobolo Rosewood (the more regular brown one.) Beautifully done, they feel substantial in your hand.

Floral and Elizabethan Stitch RemoversFloral Stitch Removers
These are pretty pewter tools that features a floral design on its handle, and a seam-ripper head. Measuring a mere 3-inches (or 4 1/2" for the Elizabethan one) in overall length, they offer an easy way to tear out errant stitches, and look quite classy in the process!

They come with a protective metal tip-cover for that little ripper, so they're protected for years and years... of hopefully occasional use!!! These look like all laying tools we carry (see below)... very nice!

Celtic Trolley Needle Laying Tool
Here's a pretty little gadget for the stitcher who has everything else!!! It's a laying tool with a beautiful filagree collar that snuggles around your finger. Because the pewter is a soft metal, when you warm it against your skin, you'll be able to bend it a little to custom fit your finger!

It feels wonderful, looks fabulous, and works like a dream, all while organizing your threads neatly while you stitch with them... it' sooooo cool!

Pewter Tool -- click here to see a larger view

Pewter Laying Tools
Additional styles of pewter laying tools, designed to help make your threads lay smoother when you stitch, each has a pretty pewter handle, and a stainless 'blade' to slip under your stitches. The top tool in the pic features a very pointed end, along with a tiny cover for protection. The bottom tool features a blunt end, for larger needlework and threads. So pretty and functional, but probably not something for an airline trip!!!

Static Highlighters
These are the handiest things! Colored, clear plastic 1 x 6-inch strips cling to your chart paper using static electricity. Perfect for keeping your place, yet being able to see what's coming in the next few rows... they weigh nothing, and take no space in your totebag. They work great when you're doing data entry in your computer, a help when you're reading, just so many things! I've even trimmed some of mine smaller, and tucked them into my Needlesafe! Available in yellow, orange or green -- three strips per package, there is an assortment package of one sheet in all three colors, if you can't decide which you'll like the best. Just the handiest little gizmo!

Needle ID Cards - click for more Favorite Needle Threaders
Back in stock after many years... this threader has been the favorite for 'just-forever!' Formerly known as a *Muriel*... (named after the lady that designed then, I believe) you just found a new best friend! Muriel passed away several years ago, I remember something about the family not continuing with her product... we 'lost track' of them for several years... and found them again!

Just a flat, thin, lightweight metal needle threader, perfect for thick and thin threads, the hole in the center allows you to teather your *Muriel* to anything else to keep track of her! Measuring just 3/4 x 1-3/4 of an inch... paper thin... this little baby fits anywhere and is a great help. Don't know if it is because it is solid and the holes to thread your thread through are so much easier to see than wire threaders, or the fact that there is NOTHING to break on these that make them so good, they have just always been the *Go To* Threader!

Ultra-Fine Threader
A super-duper thin wire in melted into this plastic threader, securely attached to thread teeny needles, perfectly! Used in quilting, beadwork, heirloom sewing and fine needlework, the super-fine, diamond-shaped wire is designed for threading 'Betweens #12,' 'Sharps #11 and 12,' Milliners #11, and Beading #10 & 12. Absolutely wonderful... you'll want these to keep in every needlecase you own! Ours are packaged 2 to a pack, in a clear, protective plastic case, which includes an outer sleeve. Really cool!

Ultra-Fine Threader

All-Purpose Threader
A great all-around needle threader... these will thread Tapestry needles as well as many others. The durable design features a wire that is fused into the plastic housing, along with a recessed cutting blade on the opposite end! There is even a small hole provided in case you want to attach it to a favorite chatelaine or project! Ours are packaged in pairs in a protective plastic sleeve and case. Very handy!

All-Purpose Threader

Needlework Threader
The heavy-duty version of our other two threaders, this one is perfect for Tapestry and Chenille needles. Used for needlepoint, cross-stitch, hardanger and embroidery, it's perfect for perle cottons, yarn, ribbons and specialty threads (like some of the heavier Rainbow Gallery ones!). The square design of the threader allows the thread to 'spread out' as it passes through the eye of the needle, so there is much less stress, (and less breakage later on!) It features a recessed cutting blade, as well as a hole for attachment to a chatelaine or sewing case. Packaged by the pair in a wonderful clear plastic protective sleeve... they slip into a clear case for extra protection.

    Super-Duper Mini Magnets
    Super-Duper Mini Magnets - click to see moreThese are teeny-weeny, super-duper-powerful magnets that Stitchers can use for so many things! These are steel discs that have been super-magnetized to help hold anything in place. Use them to hold needles, keep your charts in place, or simply on your refrigerator to hold nifty notes and pictures! Perfect, because you have matching pairs, you can place one magnet under something , and the other on top... to clamp something in between -- and it's temporary! The Duo pack contains 2 pair of 1/4" magnets. Package warns to keep these AWAY from pacemakers, cell phones, computers and credit cards! (Magnetic poles fight with each other and erase!)

    Cross Stitch Gauge - click to see more
    Cross Stitch Gauge
    Here's something that's incredibly handy no matter what fabric you're stitching on... it helps you figure finished design sizes and lets you compare that finished size on various counts of fabrics -- before you begin the project! Remember the old Cross Stitch Rulers from 15 years ago??? This is the same thing, with 'rabies!' Instead of fabric count gauges for only 4 fabric counts...this little gizmo features 12 counts!!! 11, 14, 16, 18, 22, 25, 26, 28 30, 32, 36 and 40! You take that stitch count from your chart... and look it up on the various rulers... and immediately SEE how big the project will finish on whatever sizes of linen or aida you care about! People are always asking well... how big will it be on 32 or how big will it be on 18... this SHOWS you! A very good value (cheap!), and functional.. every totebag needs one of these!!!

    Cameo Angel Needle Minders from Kelmscott -- click to see more
    Needle Minders
    from Kelmscott Designs
    A very classy way to keep track of stray needles, these elegant, Victorian Cameos feature a pair of magnets on their back, to cling to fabrics, or rest on the table... just wherever you'd like. The magnets will attract your needles, so you won't lose them.

    Each Cameo is made from a resin material, but they look just like porcelain! 1-1/8 x 1-1/2 inch ovals, we have 7 designs available, and each is just as lovely as the other. Soft colors, beautiful relief, these are very well done, and what a great price, too!

    Celtic Flower Thread Winder
    Celtic Flower Thread Winder
    from Kelmscott Designs
    A Mother-of-Pearl piece designed to be a decorative accent in a special needlecase or something pretty to wind a specialty thread around, this piece is a generous 2-1/2 inches in size. Historically, thread winders were generally made of ivory, but in a size and weight like this piece... they would be cost prohibitive. So... as a treat, we have the Mother-of-Pearl!

    Wind some left-over threads from a pretty sampler around the petals, and display it beside the piece. Or... wrap some special hand-dyed silks you're using in a current project, and just enjoy unwrapping the threads as you need them! It feels heavy in your hand, and is just so pretty! What a great price point for a small stitcher's gift, as well!

    Mother-of-Pearl Thread Rings -- click to see more
    Mother-of-Pearl Thread Rings
    from Kelmscott Designs
    A set of 10 3/4-inch Mother-of-Pearl rings... use these to tie together cut threads from a kit, or open skein of thread. So elegant inside a special sewing case... you can use these just like the Celtic Threadwinder, and carry current threads in your work-in-progress bag, or display with threads beside the finished product! Another small and elegant treat to YOU!

Transgender Danger in the Bathroom

After posting an article on LinkedIn about Target and Transgender rights including using the right bathroom, someone asked why I would use the word hater for someone who just had a different point of view. She said that it was just a disagreement about whether men should use the women’s bathroom and women should use the men’s bathroom. Unfortunately, a lot of people have a mistaken idea about this issue. Whether or not to deny human rights to any group is not a “different point of view.”  Whether that decision is based on bigotry, hate or fear due to lack of information, the result is the same, discrimination.

I understand that there are many people who don’t understand Transgender issues, that may be afraid and who lack information. However that’s no excuse for not learning, and getting the right information. That’s why I think in terms of willful ignorance. There was a time when I didn’t understand Transgender issues but I took the time to learn, to talk to Transgender people and be informed. I look forward to the time when we won’t need to learn or understand, because it won’t be an issue, when no one will even think to question or deny equal rights to anyone from any group. Not_listening

At one time, interracial marriage was illegal, and it was illegal to be a lesbian or a gay man. Police would raid bars like Stonewall in New York and people who were not wearing a certain amount of what was considered “gender appropriate” clothing would be arrested and taken to jail.

There were people who supported segregation who said they weren’t prejudiced but they just had a different point of view. There is a difference between a point of view where someone likes or dislikes a movie, or whether they support public or private schools, or whether kids should be allowed to drive at a certain age. Discriminating against a particular group is much deeper than that. We don’t have to use the word “hate,” we can use bigoted, prejudice, racist, homophobic or transphobic for types of discrimination. I would also add willful ignorance for some. There is a mistaken idea that straight men will want to dress up like women to molest girls. The reason most transgender people want to use the bathroom according to the gender they identify and live is because they are more in danger of being molested and not safe.

This is  Caroline Cossey who is a transgender woman who was a former model, Decide for yourself whether or not she would be safe in a men’s bathroom,

And of course award winning actress Laverne Cox

Below is Ian Harvey. Look at him and decide for yourself whether you would feel safe with him in a women’s bathroom, or whether he would be safe.

IAN Harvie

Of course, like members of any other group, not all Transgender people are famous or glamorous, or even on Google. And then, there are more than a few heterosexual, straight, cisgender people who don’t fit the “accepted prototype” of what a man or a woman should look like. Some of those people have already been harassed because someone thought they were Transgender. Let’s stop the hysteria and begin to let go of old gender stereotypes of how people should look, dress and talk.

How ways to get informed:

• Take some time to learn. Go to the Transgender Law site, or  Out and Equal.

• Watch documentary about people who are Transgender.

• Read about Transgender issues, watch a Ted Talk about what it means to be Transgender.

• Read the personal stories written by Transgender people.

• There are Transgender rights organizations across the country. Get to know a Transgender person and be prepared to let go of your assumptions.

2 Responses to Transgender Danger in the Bathroom

  1. What bothers me about this issue is that there is a group of men once again concerned over what happens in a woman’s bathroom. As women, we are fully capable of policing our own bathrooms. We are fully capable of deciding and working out amongst ourselves how to protect privacy in our bathrooms – after all we have stalls. I’ve told male facebook friends who post about this that all women really care about is that no one pees on the seat and floor.
    And as far as the locker room the only concern seems to be that the transgender woman will be gawking at naked girls / women. I don’t hear anyone asking if the transgender man or woman is comfortable undressing in front of others. Do they want privacy?
    Unfortunately it seems we can never get through an election cycle without men bringing up some issue related to women’s private areas. They can’t discuss the issue with any sensitivity. They come off sounding just like the creepers they are supposedly wanting to protect women and girls from.
    I hold onto a fantasy that someday when one of these issues come up, women from both sides of the issue unite and tell men to get out of our panties. This is an issue women will debate, discuss and resolve amongst ourselves.

Handmade Holiday Gift Guide Feature! Inspired by Oceans

I sell handcrafted, unique jewelry with nautical flare! I enjoy creating beautiful pieces that you can wear year round. I also include seasonal items and paper goods such as cards and gifts.

During the spring of 2011, I decided to take some time off from my teaching career. Throughout the summer, I began creating jewelry and it has blossomed into my own business. I am really enjoying creating pieces in my free time.

Inspired by Oceans was literally inspired by the ocean. I spent fifteen years living on the coast of Maine, in particular, a small island named Southport. I enjoy the beauty of the sea, whether it is during boating, scuba diving, swimming, or sightseeing. I recently relocated to the Midwest and have missed seeing the water everyday. Making sea colored jewelry has brought me close to the ocean again!

Handmade Holiday Gift Guide Feature! Fired Up Ladies Hammered

I am a single parent of 3 wonderful teenagers ( that sure is an oxymoron!) and am a full time artist. I show my work at art shows, about 45 a year, and then sell on the internet through Etsy. I currently spend the winter in Florida in my RV so my kids can go to school and I can pursue my art full time. My house is actually in Ohio and we spend the summer up north.

I have been making jewelry with my handmade clay focal beads, and, for about 10 years and about 9 months ago began working with the metal. I started out with just the stamping and incorporating the ceramic charms and have just kept exploring and continue to try all types of new designs. I am constantly thinking about how to do something different and unique with my work.

Handmade Holiday Gift Guide Feature! Sams Crochet

I have been crocheting off and on since I was 8 years old. The last few years, I have been crocheting more regularly, and have self-taught (and with online tutorial help) some more dynamic styles. Health has always been part of my life, as my Mom was a fitness instructor, and she inspired me to make my first yoga mat bag. After finishing massage school, I really grew to see how important health and fitness really is, and love to make items that make that day-to-day routine that much more fun and easy to do every day! I love to do custom work, and see the lovely combinations of colors that come from what others see and request. Please don't hesitate to ask if you see something you'd like to personalize for yourself or a loved one this holiday season. Thanks so much for shopping!

Love you till I die - REYNARD 1107

Bennie Cole

I would guess Bennie Cole and His Soul Brothers were active in Milwaukee, WI since both their 45s have addresses from that city. I only know of the two rare singles illustrated here but both are very good indeed and well worth seeking out.

From listening to them the Raynard sounds like it was cut in the 60s, much earlier than the Key. ListenLove You Till I Die is a fine plodding deep ballad with Cole drifting into an impassioned falsetto from time to time. I like the horn chart and the gentle background harmonies too.

ListenI Need Someone (recorded in stereo) is quite similar in construction to his initial offering, again featuring some strong horn lines over which Cole delivers a superior vocal – just love those falsetto screams at the end. Recordings like these from little known sources are highly prized by collectors – and with music like this it's no wonder!

UPDATE ~ Dante Carfagna writes that the Key 45 came out first on Century with a different mix. Cole's Raynard release features vocals by Gregory Davis, who was also in the group Little Gregory & the Concepts. That ensemble also cut a record around the same time:-

Little Gregory & the Concepts “Get Away!/ Look and You’ll See”   (Lompri 270)

FURTHER UPDATE ~ I've now manged to find a copy of the Century City 45 (thanks Andy) and Dante is quite right. It is a far better mix of ListenI Need Someone with the horns much further forward and the vocals more clearly articulated.

I need someoe - CENTURY CITY 4370 I need someone - KEY 1003

I don't want to cry / ListenLove you till I die ~ RAYNARD 1107 (1969)
Gotta go back home / ListenI need someone ~ CENTURY 36967/ KEY 1003 (early 70s?)

Thanks as always to Dante Carfagna (see Links) for the extra info.

Thanks to Alan Wheway for the update to the discography.
