Here are two origami hearts... one made of a cut rectangle of scrapbook paper and the other made of a $5 bill. The $5 bill holds a quarter. I made this to commemorate President's day (Lincoln on the $5 and Washington on the quarter).
This was made from Steve Hecht's "Change of Heart," diagram.

So I randomly decided to try this wig on him and...I guess there will be some changes in my doll family.
ODC - SOOC This is sorghum or grain. I have been watching the fields as they change from just all the same color green to the auburn color on the head. It will get deeper and then they will harvest it. This field is farmland inside the city limits.
I grew up in farming country in West Texas and still enjoy the farming around me in South Texas.

"Beached Walkers” Installation of shoes washed ashore near and around LA Harbor Southern California . View more artwork #Lowell Nickel art. Lower- Digital imaging using beached rubbish as subject matterlocal beaches.
This work began by building clusters of flotsam
and making digital photomontages. As this project evolved a
formal image-making strategy developed via toying with these
beached objects and placing them within layered compositions.
The intention: the renewal of this wayward material by displaying
it, with all it’s seasoned attributes, as somehow elegant.
As a devoted beachcomber and lifelong roadside treasure
hunter I have regard for these distressed and decomposing
products. These materials are our own footprints to be washed
away in time by the elements. The weathering forces of nature
serve as the ultimate liberator of all manmade materials… this
does not come without alterations of risky consequence.
Currently, this flotsam theme is also being explored with video,
installation work and billboard public presentations.
Thank you for the work that you do to change minds and better our Planet in need!
Sincerely lowell nickel

Benefit charity event organized by Evenementia and Stok for LLK association.
This cultural and playful event with a charitable aim will begin Friday, August 26th at 12,30 PM SLT and will end Sunday, August 28th at 4,30pm SLT with a firework.
LLK (Live and Learn in Kenya) is a german association installed on Second Life for more than a year now (led by Brique Topaz), which is raising funds to help children in Kenya.
It's an non-profit aid NGO.
Desolation, hunger, thirst, poverty, illiteracy, AIDS, child prostitution... Here is the daily life of Kenya's children living in slums of Rhonda Nakuru. « Live and Learn in Kenya » is helping everyday in order to make the daily life of these children better.
This association has many missions faithful to the Charter of Rights of the Child : to allow education and scholarship to these children, provide medical care and hygiene, and of course allow them to eat everyday.
LLK is looking for sponsors to finance the education of poor children, which means all a child need to go to school : fees, uniforms, shoes, books, school supplies...
LLK has also an organization in Germany, medical/ dental partner « Arzt und Zahnarzthilfe Kenya», providing quarterly medical and dental cares, check-up and vaccinations.
Their feeding program is also a big success. Thanks to their operation called « Shared Joy », the organization can distribute meals for almost 500 children per day.
All the funds are donations.
100% of donations are directly transfered to Kenya to take care of children, provide education, medical care, feeding, a home and host families. Nobody earns money in LLK.
Evenementia and Stok, aware of the action of the organization in Kenya, have decided to organize a big event under the aegis of « United For Change ».
The aim of the event « United For Change » is to gather together several protagonists (artists, djs, designers, dancers, poets...) for a week end, not only to make people aware of this scourge and make known this association, but also to raise loads of funds.
On differents places on the lands where the event will take place, there will be officials donations jars.
The program of festivities this week end : a host of talented singers and musicians will offer to strollers exceptional lives. All styles of music : pop, rock, folk, classical, variety, jazz...
And also 38 hours of breathtaking Djs sets. Different nationalities and motley types, you'll appreciate the quality of all these sets prepared for the event. Techno, BreakBeat, Drum and Bass, Chill Out, House, Trans, Mood Music, EBM, Rhythmic Noise, Tribal... good sounds for all enthusiasts of good music...
But there is not only music at the program, in fact during all the event, an exhibition will take place on the theme of Africa, also a unique fashion show of African creations by Solylence Houston (Solylence Creation) and of CocoCurious Macbain creations (Coco's African), games, African poetry, animated African tales, and a stand of « African » skins design... and many more surprises.
A lot of partners have created objects or freebies only for this event, and everyone will be able to pick them up.

Evènement caritatif organisé par Evenementia & Stok au profit de l'association LLK
Cette manifestation culturelle et ludique à vocation caritative débutera le vendredi 26 août à 21H30 et se clôturera le dimanche 28 août aux alentours d'1H30 par un feu d'artifice sons et lumières...
LLK (Live and Learn in Kenya) est une association allemande implantée depuis plus d'un an sur Secondlife ( conduite par Brique Topaz) qui récolte des fonds afin de venir en aide aux enfants du Kenya.
C'est une ONG humanitaire à but non lucratif.
Désolation, faim, soif, pauvreté, analphabétisme, sida, prostitution des enfants... Voilà le quotidien des enfants du Kenya qui vivent dans les taudis de Rhonda Nakuru. Live and Learn in Kenya aide chaque jour à améliorer le quotidien de ses enfants.
Les missions de cette association sont multiples et fidèles à la charte des droits de l'enfant : permettre l'éducation et la scolarité de ces enfants, assurer leurs soins médicaux et leur hygiène et bien évidement leur permettre de se nourrir au quotidien.
LLK cherche des sponsors pour financer l'éducation des enfants nécessiteux, qui comprend tout ce que l'enfant a besoin pour aller à l'école : les honoraires, uniformes, chaussures, livres, fournitures scolaires...
LLK a aussi une organisation basée en Allemagne, partenaire médical / dentaire "Arzt und Zahnarzthilfe Kenya», qui fournit des soins médicaux et dentaires, trimestriels check-up et vaccinations.
Leur programme d'alimentation est également un énorme succès. Grâce à leur opération appelé "shared joy", l'association est en mesure de distribuer des repas pour près de 500 enfants par jour. Tous les fonds sont des dons.
100% des dons sont directement transférés au Kenya pour prendre soin des enfants, fournir une éducation, les soins médicaux, une alimentation, un logement et des familles d'accueil. Personne ne touche d'argent au Live and Learn au Kenya.
Evenementia et Stok, sensibilisés par cette association et son action au Kenya, ont décidé d'organiser un gros évènement sous l'égide " United For Change".
Le but de l'opération " United For Change "est réunir le temps d'un week end plusieurs protagonistes (artistes, djs, créateurs, danseurs, poètes....) afin, non seulement de sensibiliser les gens à ce fléau et de faire connaître cette association, mais aussi de collecter un maximum de fonds.
Sur les différentes parties des lands de l’évènement seront disposées des bornes de donations officielles.
Au programme des festivités de ce week end, une pléaide de chanteurs et musiciens talentueux qui vont offrir aux spectateurs des lives d'exception. Tous les genres seront au rendez-vous ; pop, rock, folk, classique, variétés, jazz...
Sur le stage DJs, 38H00 de sets à vous couper le souffle. De nationalités différentes et de genres hétéroclites, vous allez pouvoir appréciez la qualité de tous ces mixs qui ont été préparés pour l'occasion. Techno, BreakBeat, Drum and Bass, Chill Out, House, Trans, Mood Music, EBM, rhythmic noise, tribal.... du bon son pour tous les amateurs de bonnes musiques....
Mais le programme ne se limite pas à cela, durant la totalité de l'opération, il y aura aussi une exposition sur le thème de l'Afrique, un défilé de mode unique de créations africaines de Solylence houston (Solylence Creation) et de CocoCurious Macbain (Coco's African), des jeux, des ateliers de poésies africaines, des contes africains animés, un atelier de création de skins "africaines".... et bien d'autres surprises.
Beaucoup de partenaires ont crées aussi des objets ou freebies pour l'occasion qui seront à la disposition de tous.

"THOSE WHO CANNOT GO TO THE BEACHES MAY DO THEIR BATHING THUS
Berlin is so far north that it enjoys from 16 to 18 hours of summer daylight. Short as the season is, the city has numberless boat and bathing clubs, and is famous in the athletic world for its excellent swimmers."
Agfacolor Plate by Hans Hildenbrand
(This historic photograph is from a National Geographic article in the February 1937 issue titled "Changing Berlin". It offers a fascinating look at Berlin, Germany, a few years before the start of World War II.)

Caption: A thousand students from Rizal High School, in Pasig City,
Philippines form a human banner that reads: “Act for our Future,” to call
for a strong and fair global climate agreement ahead of the international
climate talks in Paris that will start on November 30. This activity was
made possible through the#NowPH
project of the
National Youth and the Climate Change Commission, which aims to gather
voices of the Filipino youths to take part in the battle against climate
change. Photo: Gerald Niu/350.org
After coming out of prison last summer, Welcome is now a One Man Can Training Assistant. He explains how the project asks questions and encourages men to rethink how they value women and change their lives.
“How can I say that I’m gender conscious if I’m still being abusive? How can I say I’m gender conscious if I’m still seeing women as objects rather than our equals? So in order to change, I needed to do this introspection and move myself away from gang activity to understand I could be a loving man and a loving provider, if I just worked on that process.”
Background
In March 2013 the United Nation's Commission on the Status of Women will meet to discuss how to prevent all forms of violence against women and girls.
UK aid is working in 21 countries to address physical and sexual violence against women and girls and will be supporting 10 million women and girls with improved access to security and justice services by 2015.

Made these quilted changing pads for my nephew. I loved to use these when my kids were babies to cover those horrid changing tables in public restrooms.
In the front left corner of the 1/76 scale London Tramway layout I have built a 'change pit'.
In the central areas London trams drew their power from rails in an underground conduit, by means of a 'plough' that passed through a slot in the road between the running rails. This did away with the untidiness of overhead wires, but was expensive to build and to maintain. As the system extended further out from the city, overhead wire was used. Trams needed to change from one method of current collection to the other - this was done at the change pit.
Trams running on the conduit (from right) would have their ploughs ejected following the centre slot, which, as can be seen, diverged to a point between the two tracks. As the car slowed the conductor would be raising the trolley pole to contact the overhead wire.
Trams approaching on the wire (from left) would slow and an attendant would use a fork like implement to manouvere a plough that was already in the slot, underneath the car to be supported by a pair of angle irons. Meanwhile the conductor would be stowing the trolley pole.
Ploughs would thus be deposited and then picked up by cars going back to the centre. Change pits were generally marked by a pair of lamps (here illuminated) , a canvas hut for the attendant to shelter in and a stock of ploughs and a fork. I need to make some ploughs and a fork and find a suitable recruit!
The scene fills an awkward corner space on the layout and will also serve to answer the question - "Why don't the trams have overhead wires?"
The tracks here are simply scenic and so won't actually be used by the model trams - indeed as can be seen they run off the edge of the baseboard.
