“Your committee found themselves impeded at the very outset of their labours by the want of Bibles and Testaments for distribution; they therefore on the 26th May,1845, applied to the parent Society for an immediate supply of books to the value of £50, which sum they guaranteed to remit in three months after date of their letter.

The lululemon on Walnut Street has a big banner in the store window that reads, "Choose a Positive Thought," and it's filled with hand written quotes.

Some recently purchased Disney Store plush dolls. Here are Toddler Ariel Plush, Mini Anna Plush and Toddler Cinderella Plush. Anna seems to be lacking in the forehead department.
The Alice In Wonderland 10'' Doll is posed standing next to the 2012 Classic Ariel 12'' Doll. Both are by the Disney Store. They both have blue eyes of a very similar design. Although Ariel towers over Alice, she has a much smaller head than does Alice. The character Alice is much younger than the Ariel character, which explains the different proprotions of their heads versus their bodies.
Alice in Wonderland Doll - Our Family Tree
A Holiday Celebration
The Disney Store
Received 10/23/2012
I just received this beatiful Alice In Wonderland doll, bought second hand but new in box, in near mint condition. She is in the Disney Store's Our Family Tree - A Holiday Celebration series of merchandise, and is long out of production.
She is a 10'' doll with poseable head, arms and legs. She has large flat feet with flat heeled shoes, so she can free stand. Although she is a little unsteady on her feet, since she is top heavy, with her large head and long hair. Her rubbery legs can bend at the knees, with internal joints that have a limited range of movement. Her arms cannot bend at the elbow or wrist, so her have fixed attitudes. Her left arm is straight, with a bent wrist, while her right arm is bent with a straight wrist. In construction, her body and limbs are similar to that of the Disney Parks Tinker Bell 11'' doll.
She is a faithful reproduction of the character from the 1951 Disney animated feature of the same name. She has a large head, with large wide open blue eyes glancing to her upper right, small open mouth and a little nose, and a nice amount of rouge on her cheeks. She has a very pleasant, happy expression on her face.
Her hair is long, straight, smooth and shiny. It is light blonde in color with some streaks of very light (almost white) blonde hair. Over her forehead are two long sideways bangs that are very stiff, and are sewn to the main body of her hair at their ends. The ends of her hair are a little frizzy. She has a black satin ribbon in her hair, helping to keep it neat, with a large bow on top.
She is wearing a light blue satin dress with white lace at the hemline. In front is a white satin apron, which is secured with white satin ribbon tied around her waist, with a large bow in the back. She is wearing long white stretchy leggings that go up to her waist. Finally she has shiny black shoes that mimic patent leather.
She is photographed in the box, during the deboxing, and fully deboxed, both alone and with other comparable dolls.
Practical Magic is the first brick and mortar scrapbooking store in Israel, and I finally visited it today! It's a gorgeous place up North, with lots of space for workshops, and even a sitting room for the men who tag along. ;-)
קסם שימושי, יובלים
This store has been abandoned for almost 25 years. It was a Safeway but they pulled out after their buy out in 1987. May have been something after that but it didn't last long.
There used to be a fast food pad but that building was bulldozed a couple of years ago, there is a former bank building now used by a cleaners and some obscure business using some portion of the shopping center to the east of the grocery store.
Quilt store? When I think of all the marathons, and bike stores, and guitar stores, and noisy concerts I have dragged Margo to I have no problem spending time in a quilt store with her - it's only fair.
Straight out of the 1001 arabian nights Ursa Bazaar is like an eastern palace. A fata morgana in SL a must see. One can only hope to bump into the prince of persia himself around there. In a pavilion by the water UrbanizeD shows a selection from the summer wicker furniture.

This was originally an A&P, which opened in 1957. It became a Farm Fresh in 1982, which closed in fall 1984.
A dollar store mini tripod head attached to a dollar store clamp.
I used a slightly longer bolt than the original and washer to attach the head to the clamp. Great for a flash or point and shoot camera. Maybe some rubber on the clamp so it won't leave marks. Cost $2 :) er..plus taxes.
