Participants: Antonio Smith-Plata (age 9) and Julia Smith-Plata (age 6) designed and created the panel – I am their Nana (Pamela Smith) -- I provided the supplies for the project, contacted Sue Coccia for permission to use her art and paid the fee.
Dream Theme: Conservation (Nature, animals, etc)
Materials and Techniques Used:
With permission from Sue Coccia -- colored some of her art panels with watercolor pencils. Scanned them into the computer and printed them onto fabric. Used steam a seam 2 to fuse the pictures onto a background fabric. Added a border. Quilted the project. Bound the edge with yarn fibers.
What is your artwork about?
We are Antonio (age 9) and Julia (age (6). We made a quilt panel with our cousins and our Nana two years ago. Now that we are older we wanted to try to do one by ourselves – next year is the Arizona centennial – wit permission we used Sue Coccia art pages with a southwest theme for our quilt. The border is a specially designed Arizona centennial fabric. We hope our quilt is chosen to be shown in Phoenix as we live there. We have done some sewing before and wanted to try a quilt. It was fun and we like how it turned out. We plan to do another one for ourselves.

"Ces photos ont été prises dans le cadre de l'initiative ""Renforcement des capacités adaptatives et socio-économiques des femmes de la commune d'Oudalaye au Sénégal"". Le Centre d'étude et de coopération internationale (CECI) en partenariat avec la Fédération des Associations du Fouta pour le Développement (FAFD) a facilité la mise en place d’une plateforme maraîchère sur deux hectares, permettant la production, la consommation et la commercialisation de légumes variés dans cette région affectée par la désertification et l’insécurité alimentaire.
L'initiative s'inscrit dans le projet « Sécurité alimentaire : une agriculture adaptée » (SAGA) coordonné par la FAO et rendu possible grâce à l'appui technique et financier du Ministère des relations internationales et de la Francophonie du gouvernement du Québec. Comme partenaire du projet SAGA, CECI contribue à améliorer les capacités de planification de l'adaptation de la société civile au niveau local, ainsi qu’à la promotion d'une approche holistique de l'adaptation, en collaborant avec les autres partenaires impliqués, provenant des secteurs gouvernementaux, de la recherche et de la société civile, pour créer des synergies et capitaliser sur les leçons apprises.

Title: Collaborative Surrealist Night Sky Inspired by Joan Miro
Theme: Your Night Sky, Astronomy
Materials and techniques: Students used many materials and skills for this project...Materials included chalk pastels, oil pastel, and watercolor paint. Students learned how to blend chalk pastels, how to create a resist using oil pastels and watercolor paint, drawing using simple lines and shapes, as well as cutting and gluing.
Did you enjoy this project? Yes, this project evolved a great deal from conception to the completed compositions. It was great to see students so young take abstract ideas and wrap their minds around it!
About: After learning about the term astronomy, second grade students looked at the artwork of Joan Miro and spotted astronomical details in his abstract paintings, such as the moon, and stars. Next, second grade students worked in small groups to create an abstract piece of art that represents the art of Joan Miro, ensuring elements related to Miro such as colorful moons and simple linear stars were visible in the composition. They also worked together to create people and animals in Miro's abstract surrealist style.

Stalker's team take full advantage of the lethal obstacle cast by the Dark Knight and bolt through the tunnel!
Stalker: Hit any Cobras hard and quiet-like! Silent weapons! We don't wanna bring any more attention to ourselves!
Stalker clenches his jaw as his words and the frantic footsteps of his team echo through the tunnel, plainly betraying the intention behind his order. Moments later, Jinx, at the front of the team, hurls herself flat against the wall and signals for silence to her colleagues. The team joins her as she peers around a turn in the tunnel. The others see her look for a minute, then return her attention to the Joes.
Jinx: Stalker was right. We found the communication terminal. It looks small time. There's a pair of Sand Vipers and a Tele Viper and that's it, and they are lost in a world of communication hell. That big ass Devastator
guy outside must be interfering with the signals.
Batman shakes his head.
Batman: It's part of my netting. I've got something else that should scramble their signals even more.
Batman reaches once more into his bat-utility belt, past the bat-shark-repellent and pulls out a pen-like device.
Batman: This will do the trick.
Stalker: Ok, let's take them out quiet and fast. Go!
The team swarms the already panicked Cobras as Batman activates his device! The Cobra computer console displays nothing but static and sparks burst from the helmet of the Tele-Viper as the Joes take the Cobra troopers our with expert precision!

Earth Designs Garden Design and Build were asked to created a landscape and propose garden design in Leytonstone, London here are the details of the project.
The Terrace House Garden in Leytonstone, London E11
BRIEF:
This plot was a long urban garden and was almost completely bare, but for two large, established trees. The client was attempting to construct a pond in the near right corner using green slate boulders as decoration, and requested that this should be included in the design.
The interior of the house had a modern, contemporary feel fused with Victorian architecture. As the patio doors lead directly from the kitchen/diner into the garden, the garden becomes very much an extension of the house – as such the style of the interiorwas of particular consideration in the design the exterior space.
SOLUTION:
The final design created a low maintenance garden with a simple and contemporary feel. The area directly behind the house was laid with decking, running half way down the left side of the space. New wooden fences, to replace the existing worn out wire fences, were erected down the right of the garden, onto which a selection of clematis and everlasting sweet peas were trained.
The main area of the garden consisted of a tapered, oval shaped lawn, encircled by a raised bed following the same shape as the lawn. A smaller, tapered oval raised bed in the middle of the lawn served to slightly mask the bottom of the garden, breaking up the space and helping to create a sense of intrigue.
The simplicity of the borders was echoed in the planting, which consisted of white flowers and green foliage. Cool, crisp and elegant, a white planting scheme provides an air of harmony and tranquillity, and is well suited to the style of the garden and the interior of the house. An area devoted to graceful architectural ferns helped to accentuate the simplicity
of the space and serves to provide a stunning and effective display throughout the year.
Re-designing the layout of the client’s existing pond, using state boulders together with a powerful pump to produce an effective waterfall, helped to create a striking water feature. The pond and surrounding area was given life with the addition of water lilies and other aquatic and semi-aquatic plants. A bowed Cedrus libani (ssp.atlantica) ‘Glauca’, trailing branches in the water, presented the final flourish to the space.
TESTIMONIAL:
“Katrina and her team worked extremely hard and long hours to complete the garden quickly and with minimum disruption to our home. Considering that we have no access other than through the entire house, there was almost no disruption to our lives.
Watching the garden grow from its original design and come to life was amazing. It exceeded our expectations completely, and the aftercare pack and service offered by Earth Designs was brilliant.
We have no hesitation in recommending Earth Designs to any of our friends, who have also been amazed with our fantastic new garden - of course we have been showing it off at every sunny opportunity. Thanks to Katrina and her team at Earth Designs for such a fantastic design, utilising the space brilliantly and creating an outside space that we are extremely proud of.”

I wrote a tutorial for the good peeps at Go Media!
Jeff Finley released a super cool collection of hand drawn occult symbols and other esoteric assets a little while back.
They asked me to explore ways to use the set of vectors, and to write about the result of the said exploration. So I did!
The result is a record sleeve for the fictional band Fiat Lux, which just worked on their Æterna record.
You should go read the tutorial.
I hope you enjoy it as much as I enjoyed writing it. Cheers!

The iRobot Create robot is very similar structurally to a Roomba. It uses the same framework as a Roomba but omits the vacuum parts (to give you more battery power for your own projects). It also improves on the Roomba from a robotics perspective, by having a swivel front caster and an optional back caster.
Of course, almost all Roomba accessories work with the iRobot Create. For instance, here I've plugged in a normal Roomba battery instead of the green AA battery holder the Create ships with.
