The hammock comes with straps to wrap around the trees to protect their bark. The straps are long enough for trees that are up to about 12" diameter. My tree choices were mostly bigger than 4 feet diameter (!) or smaller than 4 inches. I lashed the hammock high and tight, bending the poor little vine maples without mercy. I tightened the ropes several times, and finally I could lie in the hammock without my butt rubbing the ground.

Male of the Blue Dacnis or Turquoise Honeycreeper (Dacnis cayana).
This bird was photographed in Brasília, Brazil.
Blue Dacnis
Least Concern
Scientific classification
Kingdom: Animalia
Phylum: Chordata
Class: Aves
Order: Passeriformes
Family: Thraupidae
Genus: Dacnis
Species: D. cayana
Binomial name
Dacnis cayana
(Linnaeus, 1766)
The Blue Dacnis or Turquoise Honeycreeper, Dacnis cayana, is a small passerine bird. This member of the tanager family is a resident breeder from Nicaragua to Panama, on Trinidad, and in South America south to Bolivia and northern Argentina.
It occurs in forests and other woodlands. The bulky cup nest is built in a tree and the normal clutch is brown-blotched white two eggs. The female incubates the eggs, but is fed by the male.
The Blue Dacnis is 12.7 cm long and weighs 13 g. It has a relatively short bill compared to other honeycreepers. The adult male is turquoise blue with a black forehead, throat and back. The wings and tail are black edged with turquoise. The female and immature are mainly green with a blue head, paler green underparts and green-edged brown wings.
These are social birds which eat mainly insects gleaned from foliage, flowers or bromeliads. Fruit is often taken and usually swallowed whole, but nectar is rarely consumed. The Blue Dacnis’s call is a fruit thin tsip.

This is a photograph from a large set of photographs from the SSE Airtricity Dublin Half Marathon 2016 which was held in the Phoenix Park, Dublin, Ireland on Saturday September 24th 2016 at 10:00. This half marathon is the final race in the SSE Airtricity Dublin Race Series which sees four races organised over the summer months in preparation for the Dublin City Marathon in October. This half marathon is one of the largest mass participation sporting events in Ireland and is by far the largest individual half marathon race in Ireland. Almost 9,000 participants took part in the race today which is ran almost entirely in the Phoenix Park. To help with congestion on the race course the race starts in three separate waves which allows faster runners start first. The weather was cool and dry with just a little breeze. The next challenge or race for those taking part today is the Dublin City Marathon at the end of October 2016

I ran in the race - but my photograph doesn't appear here in your Flickr set! What gives?
As mentioned above we take these photographs as a hobby and as a voluntary contribution to the running community in Ireland. Very often we have actually ran in the same race and then switched to photographer mode after we finished the race. Consequently, we feel that we have no obligations to capture a photograph of every participant in the race. However, we do try our very best to capture as many participants as possible. But this is sometimes not possible for a variety of reasons:
►You were hidden behind another participant as you passed our camera
►Weather or lighting conditions meant that we had some photographs with blurry content which we did not upload to our Flickr set
►There were too many people - some races attract thousands of participants and as amateur photographs we cannot hope to capture photographs of everyone
►We simply missed you - sorry about that - we did our best!
You can email us petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com to enquire if we have a photograph of you which didn't make the final Flickr selection for the race. But we cannot promise that there will be photograph there. As alternatives we advise you to contact the race organisers to enquire if there were (1) other photographs taking photographs at the race event or if (2) there were professional commercial sports photographers taking photographs which might have some photographs of you available for purchase. You might find some links for further information above.
Don't like your photograph here?
That's OK! We understand!
If, for any reason, you are not happy or comfortable with your picture appearing here in this photoset on Flickr then please email us at petermooney78 AT gmail DOT com and we will remove it as soon as possible. We give careful consideration to each photograph before uploading.
I want to tell people about these great photographs!

Design for The Saturday Evening Post cover.
June 23, 1928 issue.
Catalogue Note Sotheby’s ↓
In 1916, at the age of 22, Norman Rockwell painted his first cover for The Saturday Evening Post. Throughout the course of his ensuing decades-long partnership with America’s most popular magazine, Rockwell ultimately executed 321 cover illustrations. By presenting his audience with wholesome, humorous and idealistic images of their own lives, Rockwell earned a reputation as one of the most celebrated illustrators of the 20th century.
Rockwell presented Organist Waiting for Cue as a wedding present to his friend and fellow artist, Joe Aspinall, in 1934. The artist invited Aspinall to his studio to select one of his paintings himself and, given the occasion and the specific imagery of the work, he chose Organist Waiting for Cue. The painting appeared on the cover of The Post in June 1928 and marks the second to last appearance of one of Rockwell’s favorite models of the period, James K. Van Brunt. Van Brunt, who is distinguished by his magnificent eight-inch long mustache, posed for Rockwell as a number of characters over a fifteen year period, including a man browsing a book stall. In the present picture, Rockwell depicts Van Brunt as an organist poised to play "The Wedding March." He captures the anticipatory seconds before the bride walks down the aisle, and the organist’s raised hands and sideways glance suspend this moment in time. The expressive application of paint is typical of the artist’s early work, and he renders each detail of the composition–from the intricately carved organ to the sheet music–with remarkable detail.
Later in life, Rockwell recalled the day that the animated Van Brunt arrived at his studio in New Rochelle: “I remember it was June and terribly hot… Suddenly the downstairs door banged and I heard someone come up the stairs treading on each stair with a loud, deliberate thump. My word, I thought, here comes a monster. A sharp, peremptory knock rattled the door… The door was thrust open by a tiny old man with a knobby nose, an immense, drooping mustache, and round, heavy-lidded eyes stamped bellicosely into the studio. ‘James K. Van Brunt, sir’ he said, saluting me and bowing all at once. ‘Five feet two inches tall, sir. The exact height of Napoleon Bonaparte.’… Then, having ascertained that I wasn’t going to contradict him, he took off his gloves and his wide-brimmed hat, laid them on a chair, and patted his mustache. ‘This mustache, sir,’ he said, ‘is eight full inches wide from tip to tip. The ladies, sir, make much of it.’ And he winked at me and walked over to my mirror to stare at his mustache" (Norman Rockwell, Norman Rockwell: My Adventurers as an Illustrator, New York, 1994, p. 203).
Van Brunt, who himself enjoyed a happy marriage, was the ideal character to promulgate the joys of the institution. In a conversation with Donald Stolz, Rockwell recalls an exchange with Van Brunt about his wife: “'There was a woman. She weighed two hundred and twenty-two pounds exactly. Dandled me on her knee like a baby. She swore that if I got any smaller she’d stuff me in a milk bottle and seal it up and lay me by.” “He’d chuckle and go on about her virtues,” Rockwell said. “What a good cook and housekeeper she had been, how she had darned his socks. ‘A soldier’s wife! Rawhide, sir, rawhide to the bone.’ Then he’d stop, and all the sparkle would go out of his eyes and he’s look at the floor. ‘But tender, Mr. Rockwell, and loving. A wonderful, wonderful woman!’” (Norman Rockwell and ‘The Saturday Evening Post:’ 1916-1928, New York, 1976, p. 215).
Organist Waiting for Cue is the first of two Post covers Rockwell painted that relate to weddings. The second, Marriage License, appeared on the cover of the publication in 1955 and depicts a young couple in the town clerk’s office in the artist’s hometown of Stockbridge, Massachusetts. It is a more literal depiction of marriage that embodies the theme of young love, a motif which the artist felt was an integral part of growing up and appears in many of his compositions. While the two covers were executed nearly thirty years apart, they both demonstrate Rockwell’s characteristic ability to capture the drama of every day life. Combining his technical precision with masterful draftmanship, Rockwell illustrates universally accessible scenes that highlight his quintessentially American aesthetic.

"My Life Living Room Play Set" size comparison to 1/6 dolls!
When I was in Walmart I saw two colour variations for this set. One had pink pillows & a pink lamp, and the other had blue. In the Pink Colour Variation of this set, the ottoman, tray, lamp and phone stand are also coloured different, but the couch colour is the same in both.
Depending on the leg length for some 1/6 dolls, the couches are a little deep, but leaning them against one of the pillows works well for that.
Overall I really love this set, and I think it's scaled nicely to 1/6 dolls. Any dolls or figures ranging from 11 to 14 inches would look really good with this set! I also love that the colours are neutral, and would work with virtually any doll or colour scheme.
I think the ottoman is the only item in this set that's over-scaled next to 1/6 dolls, but it still makes for a good prop :D
I forgot to photograph my Shibajuku dolls with this, but they're nearly as tall as Taeyang, so it would work with them, too.
I'll post some comparison pics with the "saucer chair" next. There's also a "My Life" dining set I'm eyeballing. I just might get it, too! XD
Xerochrysum bracteatum, commonly known as the golden everlasting or strawflower, is a flowering plant in the family Asteraceae native to Australia. Described by Étienne Pierre Ventenat in 1803, it was known as Helichrysum bracteatum for many years before being transferred to a new genus Xerochrysum in 1990. It grows as a woody or herbaceous perennial or annual shrub up to a metre (3 ft) tall with green or grey leafy foliage. Golden yellow or white flower heads are produced from spring to autumn; their distinctive feature is the papery bracts that resemble petals. The species is widespread, growing in a variety of habitats across the country, from rainforest margins to deserts and subalpine areas. The golden everlasting serves as food for various larvae of lepidopterans (butterflies and moths), and adult butterflies, hoverflies, native bees, small beetles and grasshoppers visit the flower heads.
The golden everlasting has proven very adaptable to cultivation. It was propagated and developed in Germany in the 1850s, and annual cultivars in a host of colour forms from white to bronze to purple flowers became available. Many of these are still sold in mixed seed packs. In Australia, many cultivars are perennial shrubs, which have become popular garden plants. Sturdier, long-stemmed forms are used commercially in the cut flower industry.
