"Belinha acordou às seis, arrumou as crianças, levou-as para o colégio e voltou para casa a tempo de dar um beijo burocrático em Artur, o marido, e de trocarem cheques, afazeres e reclamações.
Fez um supermercado rápido, brigou com a empregada que manchou seu vestido de seda, saiu como sempre apressada, levou uma multa por estar dirigindo com o celular no ouvido e uma advertência por estacionar em lugar proibido, enquanto ia, por um minuto, ao caixa automático tirar dinheiro.
No caminho do trabalho batucava ansiedade no volante, num congestionamento monstro, e pensava quando teria tempo de fazer a unha e pintar o cabelo antes que se transformasse numa mulher grisalha.
Chegando ao escritório, foi quase atropelada por uma gata escultural que, segundo soube, era a nova contratada da empresa para o cargo que ela, Belinha, fez de tudo para pegar, mas que, apesar do currículo excelente e de seus anos de experiência e dedicação, não conseguiu.
Pensou se abdômen definido contaria ponto, mas logo esqueceu a gata, porque no meio de uma reunião ligaram do colégio de Clarinha, sua filha mais nova, dizendo que ela estava com dor de ouvido e febre.
Tentou em vão achar o marido e, como não conseguiu, resolveu ela mesma ir até o colégio, depois do encontro com o novo cliente, que se revelou um chato, neurótico, desconfiado e com quem teria que lidar nos próximos meses.
Saiu esbaforida e encontrou seu carro com pneu furado. Pensou em tudo que ainda ia ter que fazer antes de fechar os olhos e sonhar com um mundo melhor. Abandonou a droga do carro avariado, pegou um táxi e as crianças.
Quando chegou em casa, descobriu que tinha deixado a porra da pasta com o relatório que precisava ler para o dia seguinte no escritório!
Telefonou para o celular do marido com a esperança que ele pudesse pegar os papéis na empresa, mas continuava fora de área.
Conseguiu, depois de vários telefonemas, que um motoboy lhe trouxesse os documentos.
Tomou banho, deu o jantar para as crianças, fez os deveres com os dispersos e botou os monstrinhos para dormir.
Artur chegou de uma reunião em São Paulo reclamando de tudo. Jantaram em silêncio.
Na cama ela leu metade do relatório e começou a cabecear de sono. Artur a acordou todo animado, a fim de jogo. Como aqueles momentos estavam cada vez mais raros no casamento deles, ela resolveu fazer um último esforço (...).
Deram uma meio rápida, meio mais ou menos, e, quando estava quase pegando no sono de novo, sentiu uma apalpadinha no seu traseiro com o seguinte comentário:
- Tá ficando com a bundinha mole, Belinha... deixa de preguiça e começa a se cuidar.
Belinha olhou para o abajur de metal e se imaginou martelando a cabeça de Artur até ver seus miolos espalhados pelo travesseiro!
(...)
Em seguida usou a técnica que aprendeu num livro de auto-ajuda: como controlar as emoções negativas.
Respirou três vezes profundamente, mentalizando a cor azul, e ponderou. (...) Resolveu agir com sabedoria.
No dia seguinte, não levou as crianças ao colégio, não fez um supermercado rápido, nem brigou com a empregada. Foi para uma academia e malhou duas horas. De lá foi para o cabeleireiro pintar os cabelos de acaju e as unhas de vermelho. Ligou para o cliente novo insuportável e disse tudo que achava dele, da mulher dele e do projeto dele.
E aguardou os resultados da sua péssima conduta, fazendo uma massagem estética que jura eliminar, em dez sessões, a gordura localizada.
Enquanto se hospedava num spa, ouviu o marido desesperado tentar localiza-lá pelo celular e descobrir por que ela havia sumido. Pacientemente não atendeu. E, como vingança é um prato que se come frio, mandou um recado lacônico para a caixa postal dele.
- A bunda ainda está mole. Só volto quando estiver dura.
Um beijo da preguiçosa..."

Knitting by Danny Ouellette
His notes: This is based on the Sakiori II Vest pattern in Cheryl Oberle's book Folk Vests. The yarn used is Noro Iro, in colour way 47.
Knit on 7mm and 8mm needles, 48 inches long. The vest is based upon a Japanese peasent vest design. In her pattern the pieces are knit from the bottom up, and joined at the shoulders and in a seam at the back. The collar is then picked up around the front of the neck opening and then sewn down onto the front. My version is made side to side. The edging for one side is cast on with a single ball of yarn and knit in seed stitch on the smaller needles. After that I switched to the larger sized needle, and used new balls for the front and back of the piece, lining up the colours to keep the stripes continuous over the front and back. At the shoulder the yarns were wrapped around each other as for entarsia. The first and last few stitches (5 or 6 I think) were left in seed stitch.
When the front and back reached the width of the shoulders the front was placed on waste yarn and the back was continued till it reached half the width of the back. I then repeated the process to create the second side of the vest. I then grafted the back stitches together to join it seamlessly into one piece. The front stitches were then placed back onto the needles.
The bottom part of the fronts used the balls that were already attached to them. On the first row another ball was introduced to make the collar, which was knit accros the top stitches of the front, around the back of the neck, and then down the other part of the front on the other side. At this point there were 3 balls of yarn on the go. The collar was knit in seed stitch.
When the front was almost wide enough a new ball of yarn was attached and the whole piece worked in seed stitch in the smaller needles for about 1 or 1.5 inches.
Two side straps were created to join the pieces together. They were cast-on with waste yarn, then a long tail of the vest yarn was left to be used to graft it onto the vest. A few rows of seed stitch were made, then a piece with seed stitch at the two side and stockinette between. When the piece was almost long enough I switched back to seed stitch. I then removed the waste yarn and grafted each end onto the vest behind the seed stitch edging on the main vest.
I believe this took about 5 months to do.
House of the Vestals
Rome, Italy
In ancient Rome, the Vestals or Vestal Virgins (Latin: Vestālēs, singular Vestālis [wɛsˈtaːlɪs]) were priestesses of Vesta, goddess of the hearth. The College of the Vestals and its well-being were regarded as fundamental to the continuance and security of Rome. They cultivated the sacred fire that was not allowed to go out. The Vestals were freed of the usual social obligations to marry and bear children and took a 30-year vow of chastity in order to devote themselves to the study and correct observance of state rituals that were forbidden to the colleges of male priests.

The camera pictured dates from 1917 and another I have dates from 1914. In 2015 I plan to visit the Somme and Ypres battlefields with both cameras to photograph the landscape. I'm intending to make platinum/palladium prints from the results. All proceeds from any print sales will be donated to charity.
My great great grandfather’s brother, Percy Siggery, died on the first day of the Battle of Langemarck, part of the Third Battle of Ypres (Passchendaele). He was 22 years old and has never been found. Percy is commemorated on the Tyne Cot Memorial to the Missing which I will be visiting.
Vest Pocket Kodaks were carried into battle during the First World War, becoming known as the 'Soldier's Camera' due to their popularity with the troops. This 1917 camera has 2 soldier's service numbers etched on it. I've done some research and identified the names of these servicemen. Both served in the armed forces during the First World War.
Vicenza
verso l'inaugurazione della base USA DAL MOLIN
Colonnato tra piazza Biade e Piazza dei Signori
Storie vere di vittime dei conflitti armati a cura delle "Donne in rete".
Una iniziativa forte, drammatica, quella delle "Donne in rete" per scongiurare l'allargamento delle basi militari a Vicenza. Una "resistenza nel segno dell'amore" segnata da digiuno, installazione di "storie vere", ore di silenzio per la pace, mostra sulle basi militari nel nostro territorio, videoproiezioni.
Vicenza è diventata città delle basi militari.

I just won this on eBay for US$40, a modest price considering the fact this was the top-of-the-line model with best lens and shutter (Rapid Rectilinear lens in Kodak Ball Bearing shutter). And the fact that it's in excellent condition (many are in poor condition). This was the most compact camera for 127 film, and became famous during WWI because soldiers liked to carry them in their pockets. It looks big in this picture, but actually it's only about the size of a pack of cigarettes (when folded).

si toi aussi tu as des billets de 500 euros à ne plus savoir quoi en faire, rejoint le mouvement et plie ton gilet !
if you too, you have 500 euros notes to no longer know what to do, join the movement and fold your vest!
The completed sweater vest, which has certainly made me both moody and blue at times!
And while I'd be the first to point out its many flaws, I'm actually quite pleased with it.
I learned a lot, I created something that is definitely usable (and reusable!) and it basically fits.
The future is already here, as earlier today I took shears to my prototype muslin and added princess seams to the sides.
Do I know what I'm doing? No, of course not, but I found a nice blog post. :)
I'd tried darts and they looked ridiculous. Ripped them out. The curved seams look much better and create a very nice fit on the sides.
Of course, it threw off the leg opening, so I had to add three inches in the middle, cut three inches off the tail, and now I think the neck is too tight. Again.
My next project might be to ditch the undercarriage piece and see if I can get the sides worked out - with the neck and upper chest.
