And did you feel it, in your heart, how it pertained to everything?
And have you too finally figured out what beauty is for?
And have you changed your life?

"THOUGH NEVER 'GLORIFIED' BY THE GREAT ZIEGFELD, SPREEWALD MAIDS' HATS ARE AS BIG AND STARTLING AS ANY IN THE FOLLIES!
For centuries the Wends, a Slavic tribal fragment, have lived in the Spreewald swamps, near Berlin. Besides their life on bicycles, ice skates, and in punts, they are noted for their diet of cherry pie, cucumbers, and stewed eels."

"THOUGH VANISHING BEFORE THE TAXI, A FEW BERLIN CABMEN STILL SURVIVE
Waiting for a fare, this weather-beaten driver cheers his equine companion of many long winters with a lump of sugar. White cab horses are scarce, because certain superstitious people will not ride behind one, believing that to do so would bring bad luck."

It's been forecasted that Stamford's skyline is going to change rapidly, and the tower crane is a good indicator. You can see in the background of the picture the large tower crane that is currently building Trump Parc. In the lower left foreground of the picture, I thought the shadowed columns of the Bedford St. garage 3rd level was a nice effect.

Consider the cost of the inappropriate use of alcohol. Excessive drinking is not only dangerous to your health but can leave you vulnerable to crime and violence.
Greater Manchester Police supports the safe use of alcohol via the Think Safe, Drink Safe scheme.
Think Safe, Drink Safe aims to reduce alcohol-related crime, disorder and anti-social behaviour across Greater Manchester while promoting a safe night out.
The campaign was introduced following national concern about the developing rise in 'binge drinking' and promotes responsible drinking, raises awareness of the potential problems excessive drinking can lead to and encourages and promote the use of safe transport home.
Think Safe, Drink Safe was used effectively when changes to the licensing laws were introduced in November 2005 and police powers were increased including expanded closure powers and higher penalties for public order offences and drunk and disorderly.
As part of the campaign a variety of successful initiatives have been introduced across the Force area to discourage binge drinking and prevent alcohol related crime.
All Think Safe, Drink Safe initiatives are supported by a high profile, internationally acclaimed, advertising and marketing campaign, which features key messages such as 'Pace your drinks', 'Plan your night out' and 'Stay with friends'.
The campaign attempts to attack the culture of binge drinking and provides helpful advice and safety messages to late-night drinkers
Remember the following when planning a night out:
*Avoid trouble by walking away. If a friend starts becoming aggressive, calm them down , remove them from the situation and encourage them to sober up.
*Pace your drinks.
*Drink plenty of water.
*Always try to eat something before a night out.
*Don’t leave your drink unattended, even when going to the toilet.
*Never accept a drink from anyone you do not completely trust.
*Stay with friends or in a group.
*Go out together and leave together. Do not wander off from your friends without letting anyone know where you are going and arrange a meeting point in case you do get separated.
Take safe transport
*Pre-book a taxi to take you home and arrange to be picked up from a safe, and well-lit meeting point.
*Make sure the taxi you ordered is the one you get into.
*Know the car details and ensure the driver knows what name it was booked under.
*Find out where taxi ranks are and try to choose staffed ones.
*If alone, book a taxi firm you know and trust. Do not get a private hire car (they look like a normal car) unless you have booked them first. Only hackney carriages (traditional black cabs) are insured to carry passengers who have flagged them down.
*Always sit in the back, preferably behind the driver.
*Night buses run until around 3am in parts of Greater Manchester. Find out when the last bus leaves so that you don't become stranded.
*Try to catch the bus from stops with bus loaders. If there isn't any in your town, use well-lit bus stops in busy areas.
*If alone, sit as near to the driver as possible and avoid empty upper decks.
*Tell the driver or guard if someone bothers you.
*Avoid walking home alone. If you have no other choice, walk in the middle of the pavement, avoid short cuts and face ongoing traffic.
*If you think you are being followed, cross the street several times. If you still think you are being followed, walk to the busiest area you can find or knock on somebody's door.

You should call 101, the new national non-emergency number, to report crime and other concerns that do not require an emergency response.
Always call 999 in an emergency, such as when a crime is in progress, violence is being used or threatened or where there is danger to life.
You can also call anonymously with information about crime to Crimestoppers on 0800 555 111. Crimestoppers is an independent charity who will not want your name, just your information. Your call will not be traced or recorded and you do not have to go to court or give a statement.
Linköping, Sweden, Oct 10 2010
Community members in Sweden planted a red oak to promote solutions to climate change and to urge politicians to pass clean energy policies.
This was one of over 7,000 climate action events taking place in in 188 countries around the world on 10/10/10 as part of “The Global Work Party.” This synchronized international event is organized by 350.org, and is expected to be the largest day of environmental activism in history.

PERSONAL FUN FACT: It's kind of depressing that there were only two Moxie Girlz Sasha dolls ever produced. I believe she was retired and replaced with Bria early on because Bratz made a comeback. Sasha was the only recycled name (and likeness) that MGA utilized for the Moxie Girlz line. It probably would have been too confusing to keep both a Moxie Sasha and a Bratz Sasha on the market at the same time. Plus, since only Jammaz and Art-titude Sasha had been made, it would be easy to swap her out for Bria. Bria does have different eyes, so she's not exactly the same as Sasha. I find little changes like this to a doll franchise absolutely fascinating. The origins of Moxie Girlz is especially interesting to learn about, since they were originally manufactured to supplement Bratz after the Mattel/MGA lawsuit. Needless to say, it was a priority of mine to get a hold of at least one Moxie Girlz Sasha when I began collecting in 2014. I was very fortunate to find this gal in a lot with the three other Art-titude dolls from her line. All four were brand new, still sealed in their boxes, for an amazing deal. I was most excited about getting Sasha, since she was not a duplicated character! This little lady did not disappoint. I think Bria is a little prettier because of her eye color. But this Sasha is downright darling. I wish they had kept her and Bria! Her hair was honestly a beast to tame, but after a flat iron treatment, you'd never know it was so gnarly. I'm so grateful to have the ability to purchase dolls online instead of relying solely on secondhand shopping and in store purchases. Without eBay, I never would have gotten the chance to get my hands on this amazing Sasha!
How to sew a changing pad:
1. Purchase all necessary materials
2. Wash and dry material
21/2. Roll cat and dog hair off of ironing board
3. Iron material
4. Lay out on kitchen table to begin sewing
5. Realize kitchen table is covered in honey from your lovely darlings
6. Repeat steps 2 and 3
7. Clean kitchen table
8. Lay out material and cut to size
9. Decide to use same thread that is already in machine so a new bobbin will not be necessary
10. Begin sewing
11. Have a mild freak-out when you realize the bobbin thread is empty
12. Fill new bobbin - puff out your chest with pride when the thread fills the bobbin in an even and consistent manner
13. Replace bobbin
14. Attempt to pull bobbin thread through the bottom of the machine
15. Watch bobbin pop off and fly across the room
16. Repeat steps 13 thru 15 four additional times until you realize that doing the same thing over and over again is not working.
17. Chuck bobbin across room yourself
18. Dig out manuel from machine and thread bobbin properly
19. Begin sewing
20. Stop sewing when daughter interrupts you and asks to sew on her toy machine.
21. Repeat steps 13 thru 15 on daughter's machine
22. Give up and tell daughter that the thread will only go on the top of the material
23. Resume your own sewing project
24. Realize that the pattern you are using will make the pad too big for its companion diaper bag
25. Adjust pattern and complete project
And there you have it - a simple changing pad project!
Al organizes my change every time she comes. She can't help - she just does it.

Crusaders fall to St. Joe's in heartbreaker.D3 BOYS' BASKETBALL STATE SEMIFINAL: ST. JOSEPH'S 61, WHITINSVILLE CHRISTIAN 59.By Bill Doyle TELEGRAM & GAZETTE STAFF..SPRINGFIELD— Grant Brown lofted an off-balance 3-pointer in the final second. If the shot was good, Whitinsville Christian would win and defend its Division 3 state championship on Saturday. If it was off the mark, the Crusaders’ season would end. .With Lavante Wiggins of St. Joseph’s close by, Brown didn’t have time to set himself, but his shot was on line nevertheless. ..“To be honest, I thought I was going to get a foul called,” Brown said, “but I saw it, and I thought it was going in.” ..“I was thinking, ‘Man, that would be unbelievable if that thing went in,’ ” WC coach Jeff Bajema said, “and I thought it was.” ..“When he took it, I said, “God, it looks good,’” St. Joseph’s of Pittsfield coach Paul Brindle said. ..The shot hit the back of the rim, however, and bounced away, and St. Joseph’s held on for a 61-59 victory in a Division 3 state semifinal last night at the MassMutual Center. ..“The hoop angels just weren’t there today,” Bajema said. ..St. Joseph’s (20-5) will play Danvers at 12:30 p.m. Saturday at the DCU Center for the state title. This will be the first state final for St. Joseph’s since it won it all in 2001. ..Whitinsville Christian, the defending Division 3 state champion, finished 17-6. ..Colin Richey led the Crusaders with 15 points, including eight in the fourth quarter. His drive put his team ahead, 59-54, with 3:13 left, but WC didn’t score again. ..“They were denying Colin the ball,” Bajema said, “and Colin is the guy who makes it happen for us. We ran some stuff for other guys, but their team quickness really affected us, especially down the stretch. We just couldn’t get into a set.” ..Bajema also thought Whitinsville missed center Jesse Dykstra, the team’s only starting senior, after he fouled out with 2:02 left and the score 59-54. ..St. Joseph’s scored the game’s final seven points at the foul line. Mike McMahon made four of the free throws, including a pair with 10.6 seconds left to give St. Joseph’s its first lead, 60-59, since late in the third quarter. ..With WC leading, 59-58, Tim Dufficy missed the front end of a one-and-one with 22.5 seconds left. After McMahon put St. Joseph’s ahead, Dufficy threw the ball away and Roberson was fouled with 6.8 seconds left. ..Dufficy was upset at himself after the game, but Richey came to his defense. ..“That’s not why we lost,” Richey said. “He shouldn’t feel like that’s a big reason. That’s not why we lost. We lost because we didn’t execute down the stretch, we didn’t make shots, and we didn’t rebound. They just outworked us down the stretch.” ..Roberson made one of two at the line to make it 61-59. After a timeout, WC got the ball to Brown, but his shot missed by inches. Bajema planned to call another timeout when his Crusaders got the ball in the frontcourt, but changed his mind. ..“I thought he had a step on the kid,” Bajema said. ..Brown finished with 12 points. Dufficy had 10. ..Joe Wiggins led St. Joseph’s with 17 points and 12 rebounds, including 13 points and 10 rebounds in the second half. McMahon scored 13 points. ..Whitinsville Christian led for most of the game and was up by nine, 36-27, when Brown scored on a put-back early in the third quarter. Tank Roberson scored seven of his 15 points during a 16-4 run that gave St. Joseph’s a 43-40 edge with 3:31 left in the third. Brown’s 3-pointer highlighted a 7-2 run that regained the lead for WC, 47-45, entering the fourth. ..With four starting juniors returning next year, the Crusaders should be strong again, but the loss will stick with them. ..“It’s definitely heartbreaking,” Richey said. “We put so much time into this over the summer, even since we were kids. So it was definitely tough. You’re going to remember this forever. You’re going to remember this more than if you won the game.”

Reading Buses revised its Caversham routes from Monday 19th February, in order to put them on a more secure financial footing.
The 23 and 24 have been re-combined to form circular services, with anticlockwise journeys numbered 23 and clockwise journeys 24 - therefore pink Scania OmniCity 1105, seen arriving at Reading Station North Interchange on the first day of the new arrangements, will have travelled outward via Lower Caversham Caversham Park and inbound via Emmer Green and Caversham Centre.
The pink OmniCitys used on the 23 and 24 will disappear from the fleet soon, and will be replaced by refurbished ADL Enviro400s recently displaced from route 17, which will be painted in a new pink-purple two-tone colour scheme to be branded as "berry". Indeed 1102 and 1103 have already been sold to Midland Classic of Burton-on-Trent, who operated one of they type on loan last year; and they entered service still in their pink livery.

I *know* this is totally uncool, especially because I have been off and on so much this year and because I put it in all the groups that are the coolest ;) But this is important.
Remember her? Well she's shaving her head to raise money for St.Baldricks again this year!! (Joey wants to keep her hair and grow it) I was so stunned when she said she wanted to do it again., I even tried to talk her out of it. But she has a mind of her own and she wants to help the world. Actually her words "I am going to change the world Mom" Her character stuns me. She is an 8 yo girl in a world where mean girls and cliques and GASP boys surround her already and yet she shows so much bravery and conviction. I hope one day I can grow up to be just like her.
So if you could spare even just a $1.00, I would you owe you everything to see that smile she has when she checks her page.
(FTR, I'm shaving too ;) but I haven't raised anything compared to her.)
I don't know if you remember last year but their school broke a record and raised $89,000. when all was said and done. Well this year we have already raised $88,000 and there is still a week to go. There are close to 100 shavees, in a small school. The goal is 100k. Do you realize how many kids that will help?!
