Health, Migraines, TrueColor Stitching lights, etc. by
Karen C in California
As you've probably heard, there's a move afoot in both the US and UK to
ban incandescent light bulbs in 2010. A lawyer is framing a challenge
to it on ADA grounds: fluorescent lights have adverse affects on people
with epilepsy, migraines, autism, lupus, other neurological
conditions... and...

Letter To Mr. Obama... Voters must read... by
Magic Mood Jeep ©
I don't know who 'Michael Master' is or what he does; but he does write
cogently and well. A Google search turns up a Michael Master who is a
lawyer in Philadelphia (one of those 'Philadelphia lawyers' I guess) -
but I don't believe that he is the author of this open letter. There is
a 'Michael...

new photos on rctnp by
Susan Hartman
I just posted photos of my banner on rctnp, if anyone wants to see what
I've been doing the past few months. It feels good to have it DONE! I've
been piddling around on several small ornaments since I finished it, and
also did a small doodle cloth to use as a CD cover design.

Cautionary tale by
anne
Two years ago in preparation for a surface embroidery class I was teaching, I
stocked up on placemats that would be embellished and then sewn together for
tote bags. Not that long ago while making room for newly acquired things, I
stumbled on this stash and decided to try to get some of my money...

Left around 6:50 AM, about 10 minutes after the DH, but went the "back

the street, cut behind the church and one of the elementary schools and was
there for the doors to open. Second person in line to vote in my section...

Now that the other big project is done, I was able to pick up a piece I
hadn't worked on in at least 2-3 months and it felt like spending time
with an old friend. Do you get that feeling when you return to a UFO?
The project: Rosewood Manor's "And a Forest Grew." Still growing...
