Thank you so very much for your interest in Clean Bread and Cheese Creek. Unfortunately the heavy rains of the spring and the areas outdated stormwater management controls of our community has clogged this historic stream with trash. We can certainly use all as many volunteers as possible of all ages and abilities and we look forward to the possibility of working with you! We are all aware of the importance the health of the Chesapeake Bay hold to all Maryland Residents. Those who grew up in this area remember a different creek entirely, one teeming with frogs, crayfish, and minnows – a place where many a child spent long summer days happily playing. It is our goal to bring back that stream, not for me, not just for the residents that live along it, but for everyone who reaps the benefits of the Chesapeake Bay. We are a group of volunteers working with the community, National Public Lands Day, the Ocean Conservancy, American Rivers, Trash Free Maryland, as well as other organizations to clean up Bread and Cheese Creek.
Please mark your calendars for our next cleanup on Saturday, September 27, 2014 at 8:00 AM – 2:00 PM, Rain or Shine, as the day and time we clean up the section of Bread and Cheese Creek from the Berkshire Area to North Point Road. Registration will be at 2408 Plainfield Road, Dundalk, MD 21222. This event will be run in conjunction with the International Ocean Conservancy as part of their International Coastal Cleanup Event.
We run our cleanups as a family event with plenty of ways for volunteers to participate. We welcome every type of person of every ability level to contribute and assist with the cleanup. Though it is true we will need people to dig out shopping carts and haul trash to the dumpsters, we need people to run water, food, tools, and trash bags (both empty and full) to individuals in the creek. People to sort recyclables from the debris removed. People will be needed to help at registration, setup food and snacks as well as many other less strenuous activities. We are also authorized to sign-off on Community Service and Service Learning Hours for students. The more people we have, the easier the work will be for everyone. We will provide lunch and snacks as well as gloves. A limited number of tools are available for sign-out, but suggest bringing your own if you have them
Our cleanups are part of an ongoing effort clean the entire stream by 2014 in preparation for the War of 1812 Bicentennial Celebration. (Bread and Cheese Creek will be receiving two historic plaques on the Star-Spangled Banner National Historic Trail) The creek played a rather significant part in the Battle of North Point which took place on September 12, 1814. Both the American and British Troops camped along its banks, the American troops using is as a rallying point. It is rumored that the young heroes Daniel Wells (19) and Henry McComas (18) used the stream channel to sneak up on British General Robert Ross killing him with their muskets before being killed in return fire. This important part of our history should not be left the eyesore it currently is.

The outdated fuel tanks at the red Hill fuel storage tanks on Oahu Hawaii Are leaking into Oahu‘s fresh drinking water. Numerous residents and military personnel have fallen Sick as well as animals in affected areas. The US NAVY’s solution to this is to drain all the contaminated water into Hawaii’s surrounding ocean therefore creating an oil spill further contaminating the environment, poisoning wildlife AND STILL NOT ADDRESSING THE PROBLEM. The US Navy holds on the the false claim these fuel tanks are necessary to our national security, as if clean drinking water isn’t a matter of national security? The US NAVY refuses to empty the tanks despite overwhelming evidence it is harming the land and inhabitants of Hawaii. The US NAVY ADMITS TO ALL THIS AND IS SIMPLY DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT.

I forgot about these and I never posted them here.
This is very outdated, her lower torso piece is now longer, her breasts have been resculpted and moved up. Her leg pieces have been put together and she now has her very first proper joints. She does, however, still... only have one arm XD;;
As you can see, I have added elf ears, and these pics actually show them half sanded (one sanded, one not. I sculpt vaguely, sand, and then carve from there. The ears are smaller now, and slightly more delicate.
I have also begun to reshape her eyes. I don't know why the fuck i keep doing this. i want them a bit bigger than this, but I can never seem to be 100% happy with them. I think after this I might just have to settle with whatever I come up with and call it a day. In the end I'm happy to be unhappy with her. I'm still hyperventilating with excitement, and so that doesn't make me sad or anything, it's a minor dissapointment lol.
Both elf ears and human ears are available as seperate heads (ie, not removable ears). I chose to start with the elf eared head because it's a harder mold to cast, and I thought I'd get that out of the way and learn at a slightly different angle. She's not very detailed, she's still waiting on some of that. She's also having her breast bone show through her upper chest, as I wanted to emphasize that she is muscular and lean, and I like it. She's not 'human' and so I'm not worried about accuracy to the human body and proportions - I think it's pretty clear that my interests for her are not exactly based off reality 8P
So, various pictures, one showing her next to a Pukifee. She is a mini mini, or a giant tiny.
One of her bum. And one of her in my hand, which is always a good example of size.
ANYHEW. gonna go and sleep. mighty tired and feeling sick after a day of packing. I promise to answer emails tomorrow, I've had a busy day and I just want to flop :< Whhhy did I think pilates was a good idea when I was already sore and needed to be busy whhhy.
ENJOY. I'll update in a few days hopefully, I am hoping to get a lot of shit done this week, and not just sculpty things. FACEUP LADY to thE RESCUE.

We run our cleanups as a family event with plenty of ways for volunteers to participate. We welcome every type of person of every ability level to contribute and assist with the cleanup.

We run our cleanups as a family event with plenty of ways for volunteers to participate. We welcome every type of person of every ability level to contribute and assist with the cleanup. Though it is true we will need people to dig out shopping carts and haul trash to the dumpsters, we need people to run water, food, tools, and trash bags (both empty and full) to individuals in the creek. People to sort recyclables from the debris removed. People will be needed to help at registration, setup food and snacks as well as many other less strenuous activities. We are also authorized to sign-off on Community Service and Service Learning Hours for students. The more people we have, the easier the work will be for everyone. We will provide lunch and snacks as well as gloves. A limited number of tools are available for sign-out, but suggest bringing your own if you have them
Our cleanups are part of an ongoing effort clean the entire stream by 2014 in preparation for the War of 1812 Bicentennial Celebration. (Bread and Cheese Creek will be receiving two historic plaques on the Star-Spangled Banner National Historic Trail) The creek played a rather significant part in the Battle of North Point which took place on September 12, 1814. Both the American and British Troops camped along its banks, the American troops using is as a rallying point. It is rumored that the young heroes Daniel Wells (19) and Henry McComas (18) used the stream channel to sneak up on British General Robert Ross killing him with their muskets before being killed in return fire. This important part of our history should not be left the eyesore it currently is.

Thank you so very much for your interest in Clean Bread and Cheese Creek. Unfortunately the heavy rains of the spring and the areas outdated stormwater management controls of our community has clogged this historic stream with trash. We can certainly use all as many volunteers as possible of all ages and abilities and we look forward to the possibility of working with you! We are all aware of the importance the health of the Chesapeake Bay hold to all Maryland Residents. Those who grew up in this area remember a different creek entirely, one teeming with frogs, crayfish, and minnows – a place where many a child spent long summer days happily playing. It is our goal to bring back that stream, not for me, not just for the residents that live along it, but for everyone who reaps the benefits of the Chesapeake Bay. We are a group of volunteers working with the community, National Public Lands Day, the Ocean Conservancy, American Rivers, Trash Free Maryland, as well as other organizations to clean up Bread and Cheese Creek.

I love globes and maps! They can also become outdated quickly. In this shot, I see a non-existent Soviet Union, a united Yugoslavia, and Czechoslovakia. But it's interesting to see the old borders. I guess it's a "history" lesson now.
