Valued Sony Customer and I first met over at Craftster and the more I get to know her, the more I feel as though we're kindred spirits. That feeling was reinforced today when she sent me an amazing care package that included this stitch, a huge pile of goodies, several notes explaining the goodies, and a note saying she got the feeling I was in need of some cheering up. I'll say it. I cried a little. :)
How could this be even cooler? The stitch she made me was inspired by cover art from my podcast. :)
The Unitarian Universalist Fellowship of Central Oregon sends children off to religious education classes with a tradition the growing congregation insists on keeping no matter how big it gets. This commitment to community amidst rapid change is part of why the Unitarian Universalist Association named the fellowship a Breakthrough Congregation.

IO NON MI LASCIO FREGARE
#iononmilasciofregare
Questo appello nasce dalla volontà di ricordare cosa è successo il 19 novembre 2015 a Verona...un appello che abbiamo scritto a più mani in maniera ANONIMA e che vuole essere una "chiamata alle armi" per amici artisti di buona volontà .
IN BREVE
Presso il Museo Civico di Castelvecchio sono state trafugate 17 opere di grandissimo valore: Tintoretto, Mantegna, Rubens solo per citare alcuni autori, in pratica un piccolo museo per intero (le foto delle opere rubate le trovate nel nostro album a questo indirizzo: www.facebook.com/media/set/?set=a.1064799210228843.107374....)
L’operazione è durata quasi un’ora e mezza ed è stata condotta con molta tranquillità . Un vero scandalo! Poche le parole spese dai media in seguito all’accaduto, le Istituzioni hanno messo in scena il solito scaricabarili e la raccolta firme on-line ha avuto poco seguito.
Ma un pezzettino di quelle straordinarie opere è anche MIO, è ANCHE VOSTRO! Io rivoglio il nostro pezzettino di MANTEGNA, TINTORETTO, BELLINI, etc! Non so se ve ne siete accorti ma si stanno rubando il passato e soprattutto IL FUTURO!
Io non ci sto, noi non ci stiamo! Portiamo un segnale fuori, per le strade e in rete per tenere viva l’attenzione su questo caso letteralmente scomparso, senza lasciare traccia.
Ci rivolgiamo quindi agli amici artisti: quello che sappiamo fare è dipingere, non perdiamo tempo, facciamolo. L'idea che ci è venuta è di adottare ognuno di noi una delle 17 opere e di realizzare un murale (ma anche un poster o una qualsiasi installazione urbana) reinterpretando a modo nostro il lavoro originale. Sfrutteremo l'interesse dei media per l'arte urbana per poter denunciare ad alta voce insieme questo incredibile furto!
Vi chiediamo di farlo liberamente, ognuno con i propri mezzi, ognuno con le proprie capacità ,
Siete invitati a partecipare tutti e di farlo in maniera ANONIMA senza firmare le opere che lascerete nelle nostre città , per far parlare direttamente i vari TINTORETTO, MANTEGNA, PISANIELLO ETC, coinvolgendo chi volete (le realtà che oggi hanno a disposizione spazi non mancano, quindi destinatarie di questo messaggio e di certo non abbiamo niente da insegnarvi su come si può fare arte per strada...).
Quando avete fatto mandateci le foto a questo indirizzo:
iononmilasciofregare@gmail.com
o postatele su questa pagina
www.facebook.com/iononmilasciofregare/
sarà nostra cura farle girare il più possibile perchè #iononmifacciofregare
Ecco la lista dei nostri 17 capolavori da adottare:
1 Antonio Pisano detto Pisanello, Madonna col bambino
2 Jacopo Bellini, San Girolamo penitente
3 Andrea Mantegna, Sacra Famiglia
4 Giovanni Francesco Caroto, Ritratto di giovane con disegno infantile
5 Giovanni Francesco Caroto, Ritratto di giovane monaco benedettino
6 Jacopo Tintoretto, Madonna allattante
7 Jacopo Tintoretto, Trasporto dell’arca dell’alleanza
8 Jacopo Tintoretto, Banchetto di Baltassar
9 Jacopo Tintoretto, Sansone
10 Jacopo Tintoretto, Giudizio di Salomone
11 Cerchia di Jacopo Tintoretto, Ritratto maschile
12 Domenico Tintoretto, Ritratto di Marco Pasqualigo
13 Bottega di Domenico Tintoretto, Ritratto di ammiraglio veneziano
14 Peter Paul Rubens, Dama delle licnidi
15 Hans de Jode, Paesaggio
16 Hans de Jode, Porto di mare
17 Giovanni Benini, Ritratto di Girolamo Pompei

I WON'T GET SCREWED OVER
# Iononmilasciofregare
This call arises from the desire to remember what happened on Nov. 19, 2015 in Verona, a call that we have written many hands in an ANONYMOUS way and that wants to be a "call of duty" for artist friends and people of good will.
THE FACT
17 works of great value were stolen from the Museum of Castelvecchio: Tintoretto, Mantegna, Rubens just to mention a few painters, basically a real small museum (photos of stolen works can be found in our album to this address: https: //www.facebook.com/media/set/....)
The operation lasted nearly an hour and a half and it was carried out with extreme calm. A real scandal! A few words spoken by the media after the incident, the institutions have staged the usual buck and the online sensibilization campaign has had little success.
A part of those extraordinary works is also MINE, is also YOURS! I want back our piece of MANTEGNA, TINTORETTO, BELLINI, etc! I do not know if you are aware of that but they are stealing our past and our FUTURE!
I do not accept it, do you? Let's transmit a signal on the streets and in the internet to keep attention focused on this case that risks to disappear without a trace.
We appeal to artist friends: what we do is painting, do not waste time, let's do it. The idea is to take each of us one of the 17 works and create a mural (or a poster or any urban installation) reinterpreting our own way the original work. Let's exploit the media interest in street art to denounce loud together this incredible theft!
We ask you to do it freely, each with their own means, each with their own abilities,
You are all invited to attend and do it in an ANONYMOUS way, without signing the works that you will leave in our cities, to speak directly to TINTORETTO, MANTEGNA, PISANELLO, etc, involving those who want to participate.
Once you did it, please send photos to this address:
iononmilasciofregare@gmail.com
or post them on this page

We will spread them as much as possible, because:

More tests today. I'm learning how to control very light values. But first I did a little ink test in the upper left to see if you get green when you mix yellow and black ink. Yes, you do if you are very fast and mix them while they are still wet. I used a yellow Micron pen and a black Zig pen.
My main test was to slowly build up dilute colors. I had burnt sienna in one Kuretake Mini waterbrush and cobalt in another. I applied a wash, waited for it to dry completely, and added another. I did this four times to create four increasingly darker values. You have to be very patient, but it works. I learned this method from a book called "The Wash Method of Handling Water Colour" by Frank Forrest Frederick published in 1908. I found it for free on Archive.org
archive.org/details/washmethodofhand00freduoft
Where you can download it as a PDF, ePub, or Kindle file.
Finally I tried to get the lightest value possible with a number of colors. I used a wet round brush to pick up a little dried tube paint. I then quickly dipped the brush in water, tapped the brush against the inside of my water container (to dislodge a little water) and then made a brush mark down the dry page. This deposits very little pigment and is a good way to make beautiful, light colors. I also tried lifting some color out with a thirsty brush (in the cadmium red/lemon yellow mix), and I tried adding a little more color on top of the wet first stroke (ultramarine and cobalt - bottom left).
In 2010 PM David Cameron said :
"The differences in child outcomes
between a child born in poverty
and a child born in wealth
are no longer statistically significant
when both have been raised
by confident and able parents."

JUBILACIÓN DE LA MUJER
Con Asesor Previsional
Introduction
Si bien es cierto que la mujer se puede jubilar en Chile a los 60 años, todo
el sistema actual está diseñado para que se pensione a los 65 años, debido
a que en esa edad se le entrega el bono por hijo y se ha extendido también
hasta esa edad el beneficio del seguro de Invalidez y Sobrevivencia. Los beneficios
tributarios del APV y el Ahorro Previsional Voluntario Colectivo APVC se mantendrán
mientras siga trabajando y cotizando hasta los 65 años.
Hay que tener mucho cuidado y tomar en cuenta que algunas mujeres que trabajan
en la administración pública están sujetas al estatuto administrativo, que
implica que si esa mujer se jubila esta obligada a dejar sus funciones y tiene
que renunciar. Todo pensionado puede continuar trabajando con el mismo empleador
a excepción de:
* Los trabajadores de la Administración Pública afectos al Estatuto Administrativo.
* Los trabajadores municipales afectos a la Ley No.18.883
* Los profesionales de la Educación del Sector Municipal afectos a la Ley No.19.070
* Los Trabajadores afectos al Estatuto de Atención Primaria de la Salud Municipal.
* Los funcionarios Poder Judicial afectos al artÃculo 332 No.6 del Código Orgánico
de Tribunales.
Una mujer también se puede jubilar después de los 65 años, o antes. Pero nadie
obliga a jubilarse a los 60 65 o 70 años salvo por disposición de su empresa,
mientras una mujer quiera y pueda seguir trabajando y aportando a su AFP lo
puede hacer libremente. Pensionarse hoy o mañana es una opción personal y cada
cual sabe donde le aprieta el zapato.
La decisión de la edad de pensión de una mujer es un asunto personal y particular
de acuerdo a sus intereses y circunstancias personales.
Hay mujeres que quieren jubilarse a los 60 años para disfrutar a sus nietos,
para emprender una nueva actividad como independiente, o para tener más dinero
disponible para ayudar a pagar alguna universidad.
Si usted va a iniciar su trámite de pensión lo puede hacer directamente con
su AFP, con una compañÃa de seguros o con uno de sus agentes, o con un asesor
previsional inscrito en el registro de asesores previsionales de la Superintendenecia
de Pensiones y de la Superintendencia de Valores y Seguros.
Un asesor previsional le deberÃa conseguir una mejor jubilación que una mujer
que hace el trámite sola con su AFP, o con un agente de una compañÃa de seguros
determinada, "pastelero a tus pasteles". Busque en Google de Chile por QUE
ME CONVIENE PARA JUBILARME
Las mujeres y los hombres que quieren jubilarse pronto, o los que estan pensionados
bajo la modalidad de retiro programado AFP, les comunico que la tasa de venta
de las compañÃas de seguros en este momento han subido hasta un 5% y bajarán
hasta un 6% el año 2016 debido a la nueva tabla de mortalidad que se comenzará
aplicar el otro año, por lo que le sugiero informarse más buscando en Google
de Chile por CUAL ES EL MEJOR MOMENTO PARA JUBILARSE
Best regards,
Luis Fernando Correa

Shiny silver- something I value very highly... especially when it clings to my curves as well as this!
I've had this snug fitting strapless gown for so long I've forgotten where I bought it! But that doesn't really matter because it still looks Fabulous, especially in this ensemble!
This is a reshoot of me wearing my excitingly snug and tight fitting silver wet look lycra spandex strapless gown. For this set I've matched it up with silver elbow length opera gloves, fishnet hose and a newly arrived pair of shiny silver platform stocking boots with 6" heels.
I do hope you like my ensemble and the way it hugs my curves as much as I do!
