As I helped put up an Ox piece with Jordan Seiler in Atlanta a man in a wheel chair sat unmoving in the intense heat of a blazing sun completely wrapped in felt, unmoving, undead. His body, completely covered in open wounds, I called to him repeatedly while standing over his chair. Eventually I thought that he was dead, but then he began to move, some recognition deep down. I was offering him a bottle of water. As his head tilted upward to look in my direction his eyes began to open revealing no pupils nor whites, but a solid red as if blood, not tears, filled his eyes. His shaking hand slowly moved to the bottle and his fingernails - as long as his fingers - scraped upon the bottle, gently, cautiously, then he took it a made a sound like a slow moan, almost mimicking the highway just beyond the cement wasteland I found him in. He was thanking me in a universal language which we both understood. And then I moved on and encountered more and more. Since arriving here I am constantly shocked and outraged by Man's inhumanity to Man in a land which prides itself on an ideology of equality, freedom, justice.
I am both inspired and saddened to find myself in a land where life is cheap and death sits on street corners alone and abandoned, like the city itself, little more than dead space. There is nothing in such a place which enables me to feel more pride than sorrow. Yet patriotism can be found even here. His chair had an American flag bound to it.
My God! What a place!
Thanks to anyone & everyone involved with Living Walls!
#19: Now it is time to feed the cord into the upper legs. Make sure you have the correct upper legs and lower legs lined up. The slots should be facing the back of the doll this time, since the knees bend backward. You want the rounded cup on the knee cap to be facing forward. This is the trickiest part of the process since the holes are so small. I like to use a folded piece of thin wire to help. Fold it in half, so there is a loop on one end. Shove the loop into the base of the upper leg (where the knee cap is). Feed it through, and use tweezers to pull it out the top hole (which is where the leg sits next to the hip). Use the loop of wire to grab the cord, wrapping it around the cord a few times so it is snuggly attached.
#20: Pull on the wire, which will drag the cord through the hole. Now the cord will be sticking out the bottom of the upper leg. You can remove the wire after this step. Repeat for both legs.
#21: Slide a funnel shaped cup onto the cord, with the wide end facing up to the knee cap. Follow this with a bent washer onto the cord, butting its flat side against the narrow base of the funnel cup. You will need to hold tension on the cord, before clamping down the washer with a crimping tool or pliers. The amount of tension you hold determines how tightly the limb is strung. Repeat for both legs.
#22: Once you have attached the upper legs, soak the lower legs in boiling water until they are squishy. Shove the cups into each lower leg until they are completely inside the holes. Use pliers to ensure the cups are fully pushed down. Now the legs should be fully attached.
#23: Take the neck cup, and loop a piece of cord through the base, so two tails come out the top of it. There is a little plastic bar inside this neck cup, which should hold the cord in place. However, it might have broken during removal (which happened to me). If this is the case, slide a zip tie through the loop at the base of the cup. Then close the zip tie, so the head of it acts as a stopper, preventing the cord from sliding out the cup.
#24: Soak the torso in hot water until the neck is squishy. Push the neck cup down inside, with the narrow end facing down. The two long tails of cord will be sticking out the neck hole. Make sure the neck cup is all the way inside the body, and not sitting in the rim of the neck (otherwise it will pop out when you go to reattach the head).
#25: Slide the two cord tails that are sticking out the top of the neck through the two corresponding holes on the head cup. You will want the rounded side facing upwards (this will sit inside the head).
#26: Using as much tension as possible, knot the cord at the top of the neck. The amount of tension you use determines how tight the head is going to be. I recommend triple knotting this cord, to ensure that it doesn't come undone. Trim any excess cord off, leaving 1 inch tails.
#27: Soak the base of the doll's head in boiling water until it is squishy. Then pop it onto the neck, ensuring that the rounded cup is inside the doll's head. I recommend reattaching the head last so that it doesn't get in your way when reassembling the other body parts. Also make sure the torso has cooled all the way before attempting to reattach the head. A squishy neck makes reattachment much more difficult.
Voila! Now your Hopscotch Hill School doll should be tight and able to pose and free stand!
***IMPORTANT NOTES:***
*Using washers is totally optional. You can also simply knot the end of the cord if you choose. Just make sure the knots are secure so that they do not come undone inside the doll.
*You can also buy brass inserts/metal crimpers, which is what American Girl used to use back in the day. Personally, I tried them out and I found them to be pricey and hard to work with.
*Depending on how tightly you pull the cord before knotting it or clamping it down a washer will determine how tightly your doll is strung. Make sure the cord is pulled tight enough because too much slack will make the doll loose, which defeats the purpose of fixing her. You can use hemostats/locking pliers to help you hold the tension on the cord before clamping it down. I personally don't need to do this, but some people find it helpful. A good way to know if you have the proper tension is to see if the arms/legs can hold a pose.
*You can use any sort of elastic cord--it doesn't have to be bungee cord. Just keep in mind that it should be strong, since the dolls limbs constantly move and have tension. I used marine grade bungee cord for my doll, since it is very strong and resistant to damage. I had to correct a few mistakes during the restringing process, but the cord held up just fine. If you use cheaper cord, it might wear out if you have trouble restringing the doll.
*The holes in Hopscotch Hill School dolls are super narrow, so keep this in mind when picking out cord for them. I used 4mm cord, which fit. Any larger sized cord probably won't be able to slide through the holes.
*Due to the tiny hole size in the limbs of the dolls, it can make sliding cord through them difficult. I mentioned in the steps above how I utilized wire to help me weave the cord through the limbs. This saved me so much time, rather than trying to force the cord through the limbs on their own.
*The bungee cord will fray on the ends a bit. This is totally fine and will not affect the stability of the strung limbs. If it bothers you, use glue or melt the ends to prevent fraying.
*Technically you can reattach the limbs in any order you want. You can start with the neck joint, the legs, or the arms. The only thing I recommend is putting the head itself on last, so it doesn't get in your way when soaking the other parts of the body. It will also ensure your doll's hair stays neater.
*I cannot stress this enough...you need BOILING water to do this. Do not heat the water in the microwave, as it won't be hot enough. Use an electric kettle or boil water on the stove, transferring it to a large bowl. I find that the more water you heat up, the less quickly it cools off. This gives you more time to work with the doll before she cools off and the plastic parts harden again. If the water is not boiling, the limbs won't get squishy enough for you to easily maneuver her cups in and out. I made this mistake in the past. Once I started using boiling water, it made my life much easier, and the doll's parts are less likely to get damaged.
*I recommend having a 1mm tip pair of needle nose pliers for this process. It's easier to fit them inside the holes of the dolls limbs for removing the cups. It can be harder to work with larger pliers.
*I made the mistake of lining up the wrong upper arms and upper legs during my first attempt of restringing my doll. The arms should have the slots facing forward, so the elbows bend forward. If you cannot easily pop the arms back into the sockets of the torso, then you have swapped the placement of the upper arms. The legs on the other hand should have the slots facing backwards, since the knees bend this way. If it helps, take picture of your doll before taking her apart, or use pieces of tape that are labeled to put on each limb (so you know which one corresponds with which).

The first chair I spotted on this year's trip, almost a week in! This was a little dissapointing but at least our chromium pal was wating for us.

I recently bought this Tekno model off ebay and when it arrived the windscreen stone guard was damaged and the 2 morrors on this side of the model had been broken of and missing, can anyone help me locate these parts, or know anyone who could repair it for me.
12 May 2019, Montenegro - Mountain sleeping hut in the style of the katuns. With help from the United Nations’ Food and Agriculture Organization (FAO) and the European Bank for Reconstruction and Development (EBRD), Some 100 smallholder farmers from small mountain villages are now reaping the benefits of agro-tourism and getting recognition for preserving centuries-old culinary traditions and a way of life that, elsewhere, has been long abandoned or is slowing dying out. The FAO-EBRD project has linked smallholder farmers, hotel and restaurant owners to local government and tourism agencies to promote their agro-tourism initiatives. It connected farmers with restaurant and hotel owners; trained farmers and chefs in how to store and cook local products to meet the European Unions’ hygienic standards, and adapt old recipes for today’s use – all with the aim of encouraging locals to keep their traditions alive whilst boosting their incomes and bettering their lives. Elsewhere in the small mountainous villages of northern Montenegro, FAO and EBRD, with funding from Luxembourg, helped farmers get international recognition - Geographical Indication (GI) status - for some of their foods thanks to their high quality and unique production process.

For all the challenges it faced, Community Bridge became a reality. Thousands of people across the community helped create a complex, richly layered artwork that drew more national attention with each passing month during its creation. Two common themes running through the community's ideas that are reflected in this gate are 1) links or interconnnections and 2) circles. The linked circle pattern in the gate represents the interconnected and interdependent nature of a family, a community, a nation, or an ecosystem, each of which is really nothing more than a network of relationships. In this network, each connection, however small, is an integral part of the whole.
The title of this piece refers not to the gate itself but to the plain wooden door visible behind it. This inner door is not easy to see at first (and probably is not visible on your monitor). A key of interlaced circles is offered to the right of the gate. The key to accessing the inner door is the recognition that we are all connected, a notion made clear by the community's ideas.

Can you help us trace 16 people as part of an investigation into disorder before and after the Cardiff City v Bristol City game in February?
There were incidents of public order, violence and criminal damage involving Bristol City fans outside the Cardiff City Stadium and in St Mary Street on Saturday, February 16.
Following the disorder, South Wales Police set-up an investigation called Operation Panther to identify and arrest those involved, sending out a clear message that this type of behaviour will not be tolerated.
As a result 16 men aged between 16 and 38 from the Bristol and Farnborough areas have being arrested. Of these:
•Three have been convicted resulting in football banning orders
•One man is awaiting sentence
•A further six individuals are due to appear at Cardiff Magistrates’ Court next month charged with public order offences.
•Six remain on bail pending further enquiries.
Police are now appealing to the public to help identify a further 16 people.
Football liaison officer, Pc Christian Evans said: “This incident did not involve any home vans and the vast majority of away supporters behaved impeccably but unfortunately a small minority were intent on causing trouble.
“We are committed to keeping football a safe environment where people are able to take their families without fear of violence. If anyone recognises someone in the pictures I would urge them to call us.”
A spokesman for Bristol City Football Club said: “We have worked very hard in recent years to attract younger supporters and families to Ashton Gate. Establishing ourselves at the heart of the community is one of the key pillars of the club’s future development.
“We were recently awarded the Football League’s Family Excellence Award for the fourth consecutive year.
“Bristol City Football Club represents a wide community and we recognise that different people will choose to express their support for their team in different ways.
“We welcome this diversity in support but incidents such as those which allegedly took place in Cardiff pose a serious threat to our desire to make Bristol City Football Club a place where people can watch a game safely and securely.
“Anyone who is found guilty of a criminal offence arising from these incidents will not be welcome at Bristol City Football Club in the future and we will full support any banning orders which the courts may impose.”
If you recognise someone in these pictures or have information regarding the incident please contact Pc Evans on 07584 883154 or Crimestoppers anonymously on 0800 555 111 quoting Operation Panther.
This past weekend, I helped put on Terre Haute's first ever Help Portrait event at Lighthouse Mission. Help-Portrait is a global movement of photographers, hairstylists and makeup artists using their time, tools and expertise to give back to those in need. I thoroughly enjoyed hearing people's story and watching their reaction as they saw their picture.
When we first arrived at the shelter to set-up our photo equipment, I bumped into Jeffery who finished doing his shelter duties in the morning. He had a long beard, dirty clothes, and messy hair. I invited him to get his free picture at our event and told him about how we can give him a portrait for free! His eyes lit up and quickly ran upstairs where he was staying. The next time I saw him was when he asked me to take his picture. His beard was gone, he was wearing a suit, and his hair nicely combed. He said to me with a grin on his face, "Remember me?". After I took his picture, I showed him the results. His eyes lit up again and was excited to see how well it turned out. He told me that he loved to get dressed up and hadn't done so in a while. Help-Portrait was the first time in a long time where he can dress up and look nice. He later started showing his picture to other people around the shelter convincing them to get their pictures taken.
Please help me win a pattern comp by voting for my patterns! My ones are only up for a few more days and the person with the highest score gets their pattern turned into fabric and used in products!

Thanks so much!
If anyone can purchase Flotsam and Jetsam plushes from the Disney Store and ship them to me I can pay you back via PayPal! (right?) I just want them ASAP and don't feel like paying through the nose to get them on eBay or something and they're sold out online and there is no Disney Store in my state! Please help make this family complete! Thanks! <3 My email is:
