Parks Week 2015 provided a refreshing day in the bush near Woomargama
Close to 100 people came together this month to celebrate Parks Week in the Blue Metal Travelling Stock Reserve near Woomargama National Park.
NSW National Parks and Wildlife Service (NPWS) Aboriginal Discovery Rangers Shane Herrington and Talea Bulger offered hands on lessons in local Aboriginal cultural and shared insights to Aboriginal traditional uses of the area.
More than 70 locals participated, as well as NPWS volunteers and staff, and members of groups including the Nature Conservation Trust and Landcare.
Activities included gathering materials like stringy bark from the bush then making string and rope. People also learned how to find and fashion stone tools like axes and about the many uses for these implements.
What you get is a nutrition nightmare. Potato chips, mashed potato, fried chicken and gooey gravy. That's all carbohydrate. The protein quotient chicken pieces was one wing and part of a thigh, overcooked and stringy. Can't *** come up with a meal more interesting than this sludge?

Really hasn't been a good day. I didn't even feel like taking a picture. Usually I'm pretty happy after youth group, but it's stressing me out. We really need to get it together for this mime, and I had zero patience today for any shrieking, any giggling, and especially any complaining or whining or anything of that sort. I was ready to just pull rank and say "You're going to do it because I am the leader, and I say so." Being friends with my girls is great, and I wouldn't trade it for the world. But sometimes it hinders my ability to have a controlled afternoon. I just needed everyone to do what I said, when I said it. I don't exactly enjoy it, but sometimes, that's what you have to do. Combined with the fact that apparently, my old stringy blond hair is more popular than what I have on my head now, and that irritates me. So in general, I'm just mad at everything.
So I am retreating back behind my walls. Don't bother me unless you have something useful to say.
EDIT: I just talked to Dad, and he said that I wasn't as mad that they weren't listening, or not happy, or whatever, but that I had lost control. It's true. I'd lost control of the situation and I was angry. He said that someday, as a parent (or a teacher too I suppose) that I would learn not to internalize it and to just be firm and be done with it. That kids have short memories. So, it will come in time.
I am taking some time for ME tonight. Off of here, without the TV in the background (it's on constantly), and just eating dinner and reading a magazine.
Food is an art, which starts its journey from sight and traverses all the senses to culminate in taste. Such an artistry is presented today, in the "Cheese, Corn and Pepper Toast". An regular bread can be the canvas holding specks of colors from the plump yellow corns and the shiny bits of bell pepper, all held together with some stringy melted cheese. The picture is only complete when you bite in and let the flavors do their magic on you.

In what may look to some like an undersea image of coral and seaweed, a new image from NASA's Spitzer Space Telescope is showing the birth and death of stars. In this view, infrared data from Spitzer are green and blue, while longer-wavelength infrared light from NASA's Wide-field Infrared Survey Explorer (WISE) are red. .
.
The stringy, seaweed-like filaments are the blown out remnants of a star that exploded in a supernova. The billowy clouds seen in pink are sites of massive star formation. Clusters of massive stars can be seen lighting up the clouds, and a bubble carved out from massive stars is seen near the bottom..
.
This region contains portions of what are known as the W3 and W5 star-forming regions. .
.
In this image, Spitzer's 3.6- and 4.5-micron data are blue and green, respectively, while WISE's 12-micron data are red. The Spitzer data were taken as part of the mission's Galactic Legacy Infrared Mid-Plane Survey Extraordinaire 360, or Glimpse 360 project, which is pointing the Spitzer Space Telescope away from the galactic center to complete a full 360-degree scan of the Milky Way plane. .
.
WISE all-sky observations are boosting Spitzer's imaging capabilities by providing the longer-wavelength infrared coverage the mission lost when it ran out of coolant, as planned, in 2009.

This picture speaks pretty clearly for itself. Miss Raya had some NASTY box hair!!! This is what she looked like right after I opened her up (and undressed her for her hair treatment). I was actually amazed (in a bad way) by how awful and gross her hair was. This is not the sort of hair condition that you could easily brush out. Even just a wash and a condition wouldn't do a whole lot for this kind of hair. Somehow, Raya's hair managed to look greasy and dry at the same time. Her roots were shiny in a stringy way. Her ends on the other hand were completely matted and fuzzy. I cannot even fathom how a doll could look so bad when they were brand new. I understand that being packaged can take its toll on a doll's hair style, but this hair doesn't look like it was properly styled in the first place. It almost looks like Raya has donor hair from a neglected, abused, secondhand doll that is at least ten years old!

What is a habitat tree?
Habitat trees are trees that are retained in urban parks, on non suburban road verges and the medians of main roads, and fringe areas adjoining hilltop reserves, urban parks and the urban edge. Habitat trees are created by retaining mature trees that have died or need to be pruned heavily, and cutting over the main branches to leave a 'totem' with exposed hollows to provide habitat for birds and animals. There are generally six main Eucalyptus species that are used for habitat trees because they are relatively rot resistant and resilient to the effects of the weather and aging. These trees are Eucalyptus melliodora (Yellow box), Eucalyptus polyanthemos (Red box), Eucalyptus bridgesiana (Apple box), Eucalyptus rossii (Scribbly gum), Eucalyptus mannifera (Red spotted gum) and Eucalyptus macrorhyncha (Stringy bark). More than 100 habitat trees have been retained within the urban area during the past 20 years.

South door.
. Unbuttressed, late w tower with pyramid roof. But the nave is Norman and has in its s doorway and chancel arch two of the very best and most characteristic pieces of the Herefordshire school of carvers. Both pieces are clearly the work of one man. His obsession was birds, especially cocks. Cocks are e.g. on the capitals of the one order of shafts of the S doorway. The abacus has intertwined trails. In the arch a thick roll moulding and a band of rosettes. But the tympanum is what really matters, a tympanum that helps much to reconstruct the all but lost one of Shobdon, of which Rowlstone is to all intents and purposes a copy. It represents Christ in Glory. The legs are placed in the typically Romanesque way, with knees wide apart and feet together. The folds have the tense, stringy parallel curves of the Herefordshire school. The figure is in a halo, not almond-shaped as usual, but with top and bottom rounded. Four angels hold the halo, and all four are represented flying head downwards. This allows the carver again to display his curved parallels. The composition is highly accomplished. What is against nature is in accordance with stylistic principles. In the capitals of the chancel arch there are again birds. The capitals it are of one piece with the outer adjoining panel of two small figures on each side. On the 1. (N) they are an angel and a bishop, on the r. it is not so easy to recognize them, as they stand upside down. That does not seem quite so accomplished, and the most baffling fact is that the whole stone was not rejected. Such indulgence is attractive; it is instructive too. Many birds once more in the abaci. In the doorway arch a thick roll and an outer band of saltire crosses. Norman windows in nave and chancel.

During my night shift in Sheffield it started snowing again.. Snowy stringy stuff!
So they are snowy trails left behind each snowflake or bunch of them..
Long exposure but a short one!
Just taking a little tangent of the typical steamed shrimp rice roll with the addition of semi "old" snowpea shoots. Everything was almost melt in the mouth tender, but the pea shoot stalks were a tad stringy (i.e. if they used young snowpea shoots, there wouldn't be as much of a problem). Not sure if the combo worked on the palate as much as it did visually, either way, the rice crepe was tender and very fresh.
Memorial to the first church opened 4 Jul 1841 on land given by John Wickham Daw, unveiled 7 Jul 1991. First church built of stringybark, used as school, replaced by stone Sunday School hall 1866 (used until 1928). In 1847 a stone church built nearby.
“St Mary’s Church. . . erected by voluntary subscriptions, on the Onkaparinga road, mid-way between the river Sturt and the Brownhill creek, was opened for public worship, by the Rev. C. B. Howard, Colonial Chaplain. . . The structure of the Church is both simple and neat. It is composed of stringy bark, and is capable of accomodating [sic] almost two hundred and fifty persons. A Sunday School is attached to the Church, and a Day School is about to be established. . . Divine worship will be performed in the Church by the Rev. Mr Howard and the Rev. Mr Farrell on alternate Lord's days.” [Southern Australian 6 Jul 1841]
“Built of stringy bark on a piece of land the gift of Mr Daws, and from voluntary subscriptions it has cost about £70, besides the carriage of materials kindly given by Dr Duncan and Capt O'Halloran. The Sunday School opened with 27 children, but has since increased to 35. A day school under an efficient master is in connection with it. . . It contains about 100 persons. . . a considerable population within the realms of two miles. . . A regular clergyman is to attend once a fortnight.” [Register 17 Jul 1841]
“The Rev. Mr Farrell, of the Church of England, officiates at Port Adelaide and at St. Mary's, both places being about six or seven miles from Adelaide.” [Southern Australian 2 Jan 1844]
“within a few days, the removal of one of the oldest landmarks alone the main road. For more than 80 years the original St. Mary’s Anglican Schoolroom has stood just past the angle where the South road is joined by Daw's road. . . Mr. Daw gave the land for the schoolroom, and for St. Mary's Church and rectory a little farther south. . . The schoolroom was used in the first place for church services and other purposes, afterward serving for many years as a school and for social gatherings. It is being taken down at last by the direction of the Succession Act Trustees as past repair.” [Register 11 Feb 1928 with photo p 14]
I am headed out the door with all 3 kids. I haven't showered, my legs are hairy (understatement), my hair is stringy. My clothes, which are maternity, are amazingly clean (until I get spit up on by the baby and snotted/drooled on by the toddler) but wrinkled. Both babies have cried all morning for no apparent reason, and the five year old won't mind to save his life. Wish me luck...I'm gonna need it!

Eucalyptus jacksonii, commonly known as the red tingle, is a species of tall tree endemic to the south west Western Australia and is one of the tallest trees found in the state. It has thick, rough, stringy reddish bark from the base of the trunk to the thinnest branches, egg-shaped to lance-shaped adult leaves, flower buds in groups of seven, white flowers and shortened spherical to barrel-shaped fruit.
Eucalyptus jacksonii is a tree that typically grows to a height of 8 to 55 metres (26 to 180 ft) and has thick, rough, stringy and furrowed grey-brown or red-brown bark. The trunk can have a circumference up to 24 metres (79 ft) round at the base and grow to a height of 75 m (246 ft).
The heartwood is deep pink to reddish brown with a green-wood density of about 960 kg/m3 (1,620 lb/cu yd), and air-dried density about 770 kg/m3 (1,300 lb/cu yd).
One specimen, known as the "Giant Tingle Tree" is a tourist attraction in the Walpole-Nornalup National Park near Walpole. Its base has been hollowed by fire and it is claimed to have the largest girth of any living eucalypt.

Het register salicional van het Cavaillé-Coll orgel van de St. Croix Cathedral in Orléans.
The name derive from the Latin salix, meaning “willow”. Salicis Fistula means “willow pipe”, a rustic flute made from a branch of a willow tree. Dating from the late 15th century, it was originally, according to Williams, rather flute-like in tone, but later evolved into a string stop whose tone varied considerably across centuries and continents. In the 17th century the Salicional was a specialty of Habsburg Europe, from which Snetzler brought it to England where it became very popular in the 19th century. Wedgwood tells us that the German Salicional was a “horny” string, the French variety a quiet Diapason, and the English variety a slightly stringy Dulciana.

One of my favorites to crochet, look at, and wear. "Luckyslip" fingerless mitt 100% crocheted of Bosnian slip stitch and ribbing.
Yarn: MadelineTosh Vintage. Four plies, high S-twist. Pearly and glowing stitch definition. Smooth satiny finish is heightened by the dye technique, which looks sprayed. Most of the color is on the surface of the yarn, and the inner core of the yarn is undyed (white). This amplifies a satiny look. The high S-twist keeps the plies from looking stringy and untwisted when crocheted (the surface dyeing could otherwise really spotlight every separating ply!)

The Blue Spot Knight is widespread but not particularly common being found predominantly in broad-leaved woodland, especially where beech and/or oak are present. The grow in late summer and early autumn on soil where there is not too much leaf litter.
They have an undulating cap with a slightly rusty centre, almost as if water has collected in the middle at some point and started the rusting process! Why, then, is it called the Blue Spot Knight? Often they have have blue 'spots' on the outside edge of the cap when mature. Naturally the one I found and photographed does not show this!
They are apparently edible although a bit tough and stringy, think I'll stick to shop mushrooms!

Fantastic. The flesh of the duck had a lot of flavor. There must have been at least 5 kinds of mushrooms. The little stringy ones were very good.
How to Joker step 8 - Hair: Start with clean, dry hair.
I prefer to use the color in a can for this, rather than actually dying the hair, because the color-in-the-can is actually just colored hair spray. When hair spray and large quantities of gel get together they make for a rougher-looking texture. It's just a personal preference, though, so if you want to go the dye route, feel free, and style as you like to get that stringy Joker look.
If you're dealing with someone who's got naturally wavy hair, you're golden. Just some gel to clump the strands together (pomade will prevent the spray-color from sticking) and then spray with the color-in-a-can (make sure to hold a piece of paper in front of their face so you don't mess up the make-up). Try to make the color-in-a-can somewhat uneven, so that the hair is green all over, but some areas are more green, while others are closer to the person's natural hair color.
If you're dealing with someone who's got straight or thin hair, you've got some extra steps. Starting at the front, apply gel directly to the roots, crinkling and rubbing the hair as you go along, and work your way over the top, then down the sides and back. Once this is done, apply more gel to the middle of the strands, again working from the front down crinkling and rubbing. Let the gel dry, occasionally rubbing and fluffing as it does so (the goal here is thick stranding and as much body as possible). Once this is done, use the color-in-the-can. Try to make the color-in-a-can somewhat uneven, so that the hair is green all over, but some areas are more green, while others are closer to the person's natural hair color.
