So I finally finished a batch of mosaics. Have a few more that should be ready soon. I always wait for the grout to set for a couple of days before I put a clear coat on them. This is a trinket box.
Each year, Gallery Route One in Point Reyes invites over a hundred artists to create unique works of art using a wooden box.
Here are the inspiring artworks they created this year: they range in style from whimsical to poignant and thought-provoking. These photos were taken on closing day, when the gallery organized a live auction for each of this year’s 150 boxes. The proceeds support the gallery’s exhibits and community programs.
Two of the boxes were created by members of our art community: Howard Rheingold (a.k.a. Dr. Rindbrain) contributed an illuminated box called ‘Magical’, while Geo Monley and Meryl Rubenstein made ‘Les Puzzles.’
Members of ‘Pataphysical Studios came to cheer for their peers -- Dr. Really was the highest bidder for Dr. Rindbrain’s piece, which was thus kept in the family. After the show, we all went to Stellina to celebrate over a nice dinner.

My exploration at the University District brought me to a cozy culinary corner that serves my favorite Korean dish,bulgogi. I didn't order the fermented vegetables, kimchi, thus leaving an ostentatious gap on my bento box.
I started to collect these vintage "moving" music boxes. This was the first one I added to my collection. I couldn't pass it up because I had never seen one with lights before. Most of them just have the moving characters.
These boxes all have stories. The large one was my mother's maternal grandmother's sewing box, she gave it to my mother when she came from the UK to NZ.
The painted box was made by a Japanese prisoner of war in NZ and given by my Poppa to my Grandmother. The little box I bought while travelling in Morocco.
The photo is of my maternal grandmother, who I look very much like. The fan is from my great aunt who I was very fond of and the opera glasses were from my father's mother, who I am named after and never met.

This is my sweet little boy, Sampson. He's not the brightest crayon in the box lol, but what he lacks in brain power he makes up for in love. :) And playfulness! lol
Am 9. Juni 1933 wurde Rukeli Trollmann in der Bockbrauerei in Berlin-Kreuzberg nach heftigen Protesten des Publikums über die Wertung auf Unentschieden durch das von NS-Sportfunktionären beeinflusste Kampfgericht zum deutschen Meister im Halbschwergewicht erklärt. Die Aberkennung folgte Tage später mit der Begründung „zigeunerhaften und undeutschen“ Boxens. Trollmann verlor seine Profilizenz und schlug sich fortan mit Gelegenheitsjobs und als Rummel-Boxer durch.
Mit der Nummer 668 wurde er im Register des Erbgesundheitsgerichtes geführt. Seine Einlassungen vor Gericht wurden gegen ihn gewendet und zur Verfestigung der Diagnose „angeborener Schwachsinn“ verwandt. Außerdem wurde die Befürchtung formuliert, dass die „ziemlich erheblichen Intelligenzmängel vererbt werden könnten.“
Am 23. Dezember 1935 wurde der Berufsboxer Heinrich Trollmann – so steht es in den Unterlagen des Berliner Erbgesundheitsgerichtes vom Juli des gleichen Jahres – auf Antrag des Direktor des Bewahrungs- und Arbeitshauses Rummelsburg (Berlin) als einer von 195 anderen Insassen der Anstalt zwangssterilisiert.
Die Gründe für die Einweisung des Sinto Rukeli Trollmann in das Arbeits- und Bewahrungshaus Rummelsburg 1935 sind nicht bekannt.
Rukeli (Johann Wilhelm) Trollmann, geborem am 27.12.1907 in Wittenberge, starb 1944 im Außenlager des Konzentrationslagers Neuengamme.
Am Freitag, 9. Februar 2018 haben die NaturFreunde Berlin mit Unterstützung der VVN-BdA, des AK Marginalisierte-gestern und heute, des Jugend- Kultur und Kommunikationszentrums Wasserturm, der Stadtteil Ini: Wem gehört Kreuzberg, KIEZ AKTIV: Bockbrauerei, dem Franz Künstler Verein e.V. Berlin und der Querkopf-Mitmachzeitung dem von den Faschisten ermordeten Boxer Rukeli Trollmann gedacht.
The Florida box turtle is a subspecies of eastern box turtle (Terrapene carolina) that is endemic to Florida and a small portion of Georgia. It differs from the other subspecies of eastern box turtles in that its carapace has a pattern of bright radiating yellow stripes rather than blotches. I found this turtle near a trail in a state park after I heard a faint rustling sound. The turtle boxed up and only stuck its nose out slightly before I gave up waiting, and returned him to the undergrowth. He was clearly a male from the shape of his plastron, but I was not able to get a good look at his eye color. Males usually have red eyes.
Crew mates and Independent scientific researchers recover the box corer aboard the Greenpeace ship, MY Arctic Sunrise, in the deep waters in the Gulf of Mexico, Sept. 23, 2010. Problems with a guide roller on the wench was the cause to abort the operation. Greenpeace, partnered with teams of independent scientists, has been investigating the environmental effects of the oil spill and toxic dispersants used to break up the four million barrels of crude oil spilled in the worst environmental disaster in United States history.

Tell Congress: No New Drilling. Period.
The Box is Plymouth's new multi-million-pound cultural and heritage attraction
Experience stunning gallery displays, high-profile artists and wonderful art exhibitions, not to mention an unforgettable programme of exciting events and performances, and thousands of fascinating artefacts and archives.
One of the opening exhibitions is Mayflower 400: Legend and Legacy and is one of the highlights of the Mayflower year.
Work on The Box began in March 2017. When finished, it will maintain the wonderful architecture of the Grade II Listed former Museum and Art Gallery and Central Library buildings, while also expanding its facilities through a stylish and contemporary extension - which includes a brand new main entrance on Tavistock Place.
The £42m redevelopment plan has also included repairing, refurbishing and transforming St Luke’s Church into the largest single GIS-compliant gallery in the South West. It will even feature a beautiful stained-glass window, created by world-famous artist Leonor Antunes. The buildings will be linked by an outdoor public space that houses food, drink and retail outlets.
The Box redevelopment scheme has been led by Plymouth City Council, in partnership with the University of Plymouth and the National Museum of the Royal Navy.
It has also been supported by the City Council, the Heritage Lottery Fund, Arts Council England, the Coastal Communities Fund, the Garfield Weston Foundation, the University of Plymouth, the Wolfson Foundation, the British Film Institute and Interreg.
This was obviously the place to be on Boxing day. Not nearly as deserted as this photo might suggest. It took some effort to get a photo with so few people and no cars in it.
If I were to continue to use the full size pieces that I used on the sides, I would only have room for 8 diamonds and 12 triangles. Not enough room for the design that I want on the top. So I will use half size pieces and have 16 diamonds and 24 triangles to make my “Aunt Sukeys Choice” quilt pattern. After laying the pieces out I glue on the first two as a unit.
