Baby I'm doing fine since you left me, and my friends seem to think I have a lot more time, but as far as I'm concerned, all the money that I earn is going to this 1-900 line. She said I was the greatest lover she'd ever heard, she said that I had too much love for you, and for a small five dollar cover she'd be my long distance lover, and so long as I pay she'll never say we're through.
is going to that little girl out in Caroline.
She said that her phone name was Madonna, and she said she was just like a virgin, too, I said I don't care about your old virginity just boost my masculinity, and tell me that your love is ever true.
baby I'm doing fine since you left me, and I'm glad that you just up and let me be, yeah and you can tell your mother, that I done found another, and I wouldn't call even if you were toll free.


We've gotten a look at Catherine's characters, but we haven't gotten a good look at the main characters themselves yet. Atlus has taken note of this fact with a new trailer showcasing the main character of the game, Vincent, along with some new screenshots.
Catherine is an action/adventure game with a horror side that is intended for adults. The premise of the game is a man named Vincent who wakes up every night from his dreams. Katsura Hashino, the director of Persona 4, is the producer/director of Catherine. Shigenori Soejima is the character designer and Shoji Meguro is the game's composer.
Catherine will be released on July 26 for the PS3 and Xbox 360 in both a deluxe edition and a normal edition of the game.

Hey, a NYT article came out today with a couple quotes from me in it.
I'm still hopefull and optimistic that something is going to be developed that will help people find, categorize, and scan many weblogs at once. It's the impossible problem of blogging as it stands now.

Extremity angiography
Angiography of the extremity; Peripheral angiography; Lower extremity angiogram; Peripheral angiogram; Arteriography of the extremity
Extremity angiography is a test used to see the arteries in the hands, arms, feet, or legs. It is also called peripheral angiography.
Angiography uses x-rays and a special dye to see inside the arteries. Arteries are blood vessels that carry blood away from the heart.
How the Test is Performed
This test is done in a hospital. You will lie on an x-ray table. You may ask for some medicine to make you sleep and relax (sedative) if you are anxious about the test.
The health care provider will shave and clean an area, most often in the groin.
A numbing medicine (anesthetic) is injected into the skin over an artery.
A needle is placed into that artery.
A thin plastic tube called a catheter is passed through the needle into the artery. The doctor moves it into the area of the body being studied. The doctor can see live images of the area on a TV-like monitor, and uses them as a guide.
Dye flows through the catheter and into the arteries.
X-ray images are taken of the arteries.
Certain treatments can be done during this procedure. These treatments include:
Dissolving a blood clot with medicine
Opening a partially blocked artery with a balloon
Placing a small tube called a stent into an artery to help hold it open
The health care team will check your pulse (heart rate), blood pressure, and breathing during the procedure.
The catheter is removed when the test is done. Pressure is placed on the area for 10 to 15 minutes to stop any bleeding. A bandage is then put on the wound.
The arm or leg where the needle was placed should be kept straight for 6 hours after the procedure. You should avoid strenuous activity, such as heavy lifting, for 24 to 48 hours.
How to Prepare for the Test
You should not eat or drink anything for 6 to 8 hours before the test.
You may be told to stop taking certain medicines, such as aspirin or other blood thinners for a short while before the test. Never stop taking any medicines unless told to do so by your provider.
Make sure your provider knows about all the medicines you take, including those you bought without a prescription. This includes herbs and supplements.
Tell your provider if you:
Are pregnant
Are allergic to any medications
Have ever had an allergic reaction to x-ray contrast material or iodine substances
Have ever had any bleeding problems
How the Test will Feel
The x-ray table is hard and cold. You may want to ask for a blanket or pillow. You may feel some stinging when the numbing medicine is injected. You may also feel some pressure as the catheter is moved.
The dye can cause a feeling of warmth and flushing. This is normal and most often goes away in a few seconds.
You may have tenderness and bruising at the site of the catheter insertion after the test. Seek immediate medical help if you have:
Bleeding that doesn't go away
Severe pain in an arm or leg
Why the Test is Performed
You may need this test if you have symptoms of a narrowed or blocked blood vessel in the arms, hands, legs, or feet.
Narrowed or blocked blood vessel
Peripheral artery disease (PAD) is a condition of the blood vessels that supply the legs and feet. It leads to narrowing and hardening of the arteri...
The test may also be done to diagnose:
Swelling or inflammation of the blood vessels (vasculitis)
Normal Results
The x-ray shows normal structures for your age.
What Abnormal Results Mean
An abnormal result is commonly due to narrowing and hardening of the arteries in the arms or legs from plaque buildup ( hardening of the arteries ) in the artery walls.
Hardening of the arteries, also called atherosclerosis, occurs when fat, cholesterol, and other substances build up in the walls of arteries. These ...
The x-ray may show a blockage in the vessels caused by:
Aneurysms (abnormal widening or ballooning of part of an artery)
An aneurysm is an abnormal widening or ballooning of a part of an artery due to weakness in the wall of the blood vessel.
Blood clots are clumps that occur when blood hardens from a liquid to a solid. A blood clot that forms inside one of your veins or arteries is calle...
Other diseases of the arteries
Abnormal results may also be due to:
Inflammation of the blood vessels
Injury to the blood vessels
Thromboangiitis obliterans (Buerger's disease)
Thromboangiitis obliterans
Thromboangiitis obliterans is a rare disease in which blood vessels of the hands and feet become blocked.
Takayasu's disease
Takayasu arteritis is an inflammation of the aorta and its major branches. The aorta is the artery that carries blood from the heart to the rest of ...
Allergic reaction to the contrast dye
Blood clot that travels to the lungs
Damage to the blood vessel as the needle and catheter are inserted
Excessive bleeding or a blood clot where the catheter is inserted, which can reduce blood flow to the leg
Heart attack or stroke
Hematoma, a collection of blood at the site of the needle puncture
Injury to the nerves at the needle puncture site
Kidney damage from the dye
There is low-level radiation exposure. However, most experts feel that the risk of most x-rays is smaller than other risks we take every day. Pregnant women and children are more sensitive to the risks of the x-ray.

Electricity generated by the combustion of natural gas is generally considered to have a lower emissions intensity per unit electricity than that generated by burning coal. The relative lifecycle carbon footprint of gas produced by hydraulic fracturing is contested and at present there is a shortage of independent primary data. However, trends in the absolute quantities of CO2 emissions from combustion are less problematic and no less important when considering the implications of the US shale gas boom.
US CO2 emissions from domestic energy have declined by 8.6% since a peak in 2005, the equivalent of 1.4% per year. Not all of this reduction has come in the power sector where shale gas has had most impact, and not all of the fuel switching has been due to the low price of gas. This report quantitatively explores the CO2 emissions consequences of fuel switching in the US power sector using two simple methodologies. The analysis presented is conditional upon its internal assumptions, but provides an indication of the scale of potential impacts.
It suggests that emissions avoided at a national scale due to fuel switching in the power sector may be up to half of the total reduction in US energy system CO2 emissions. The suppression of gas prices through shale gas availability is a plausible causative mechanism for at least part of this reduction in emissions. However, the research presented here has not isolated the proportion of fuel switching due to price effects. Other studies note that between 35% and 50% of the difference between peak and present power sector emissions may be due to shale gas price effects. Renewable and nuclear electricity incentivised by other policies has also accounted for some of the changes in grid emissions. We estimate that their increase in output appears to have been about two thirds of the increase in gas generation.
There has been a substantial increase in coal exports from the US over this time period (2008-2011) and globally, coal consumption has continued to rise. As we discussed in our previous report (Broderick et al. 2011), without a meaningful cap on global carbon emissions, the exploitation of shale gas reserves is likely to increase total emissions. For this not to be the case, consumption of displaced fuels must be reduced globally and remain suppressed indefinitely; in effect displaced coal must stay in the ground. The availability of shale gas does not guarantee this. Likewise, new renewable generating capacity may cause displacement without guaranteeing that coal is not burned, but it does not directly release carbon dioxide emissions through generation.
The calculations presented in this report suggest that more than half of the emissions avoided in the US power sector may have been exported as coal. In total, this export is equivalent to 340 MtCO2 emissions elsewhere in the world, i.e. 52% of the 650 MtCO2 of potential emissions avoided within the US.
A similar conclusion holds for 'peak to present' trends. The estimated additional 75 million short tons1 of coal exported from the US in 2011 will release 150 MtCO2 to the atmosphere upon combustion. If added to the US CO2 output from fossil fuel combustion, the reduction from peak emissions in 2005 would be 360 MtCO2, i.e. a 6.0% change over this whole period or less than 1% per annum. This is far short of the rapid decarbonisation required to avoid dangerous climate change associated with a 2°C temperature rise.

Hesketh Colts U10s Girls clinch seven-a-side trophy with just six players
BUDDING footballers from Hesketh Colts JFC U10s Girls defied the odds to win silverware with a depleted squad.
The side triumphed at the annual Euxton girls' football tournament on Saturday.
They achieved success in the seven-a-side competition despite only being able to field six players.
The tournament attracted a host of strong sides eager to continue their pre-season regimes ready for the start of the Karl Vella West Lancs Junior Girls' Football League.
The Colts knew they were in for a tough day of action with teams including Burnley FC Girls, Preston North End Girls and Wigan Athletic Girls all taking part.
And the competition proved challenging as the Colts won three but lost two in the group stage, though they managed to qualify third to reach the semi-finals.
There the Colts played the hosts, Euxton Girls, who had previously beat them in their group match.
In a tight game however, the Colts avenged their defeat earlier in the day with a 1-0 win to see take them through to the final.
In the final Colts faced Preston North End – the other team that had conquered them in the group stage – and a side who had not conceded a goal on their way to the final.
A tense game saw Colts snatch the lead halfway through, but Preston North End equalised towards the end and the match went to extra time.
The extra time failed to find a winner and it came down to penalties to settle the tie. In the end the Colts held their nerve and prevailed 3-2 with two great saves from their keeper.
Colts coach Graham Hill was proud of his players.
He said: "Our depleted team had defied the odds to win the tournament.
"I was delighted by the spirit shown by the team to win in the circumstances.
"It was a great day in the history of Hesketh Colts. Thanks to our sponsors Premier Wealth Management and Taskers Sports."

In this fifth and final installment of Refinishing My Les Paul BFG, I decided to let my good buddy Arnold San Juan put his remarkable skill with a soldering gun to good use and do a complete rewiring of my guitar.
A sound recordist and mixer in the film industry -- twiddling knobs and faders of various persuasions -- Arnold is also remarkably adept at guitar electronics and building effects pedals. And his skill with a soldering iron has left many local electronics gurus slack-jawed in awe, he'll be the first to admit.
Jokes aside, this guy really is one of the best.
The Les Paul BFG comes with one of the strangest electronics configurations of any Les Paul model. With a P90 in the neck and a Burstbucker 3 in the bridge, both pickups have separate volume controls but a shared tone control. In place of where the neck pickup tone control would be, Gibson elected to situate the 3-way pickup selector switch.
And this is the main reason why I so wanted my Les Paul BFG rewired. Where the selector switch would normally be on a conventional Les Paul, Gibson, in all their unfathomable wisdom, chose to add an on-off 'killswitch'. Flipping the killswitch on and off rapidly creates an auditory version of a flashing strobelight, pulsing in rhythm to the music. Or out of rhythm, depending on who's playing.
I found the killswitch to be about as useful as a piece of gum stuck under my shoe.
During the first couple of gigs with the Les Paul BFG, I found myself instinctively flipping the killswitch when I really intended to change pickup positions. The first time it happened, the guitar went dead silent and I actually panicked for a microsecond before I flipped the killswitch back to the 'on' position.
I'd made up my mind. Someday I was going to rewire this thing to regular -- some might say boring -- old Les Paul specs.
My other good buddy Sherman (who regular readers will remember as a recurring figure on The Guitar Column) suggested that I get a new set of CTS 500k audio taper potentiometers -- 'long shaft' he emphasized, with a wink and a nudge -- and a pair of Russian .022 mf paper-in-oil capacitors.
It was all pretty much Greek to me, but shopping for parts I went. But I did know to also get the cool, cream plastic ring that said 'Rhythm' and 'Treble' on it for the selector switch.
And a custom-made pickguard by MojoAxe.
Sherman turned me on to MojoAxe, mentioning that they produced the most material-accurate plastic parts that even vintage Les Paul owners would turn to when they needed to get a spare pickguard or control cavity cover. MojoAxe also makes a well-intonated wrap-around replacement tailpiece for old and reissue Les Pauls.
And since the Les Paul BFG had a P90 soapbar in the neck and a humbucker in the bridge, MojoAxe would also be able to cut a custom pickguard for me.
Dealing with Dan at MojoAxe was an absolute pleasure. He asked for the measurement between the neck and bridge pickup and had the pickguard cut and mailed out the following day along with an aged nickel mounting bracket and screws. He even sent me the picture you see here before mailing it out.
But back to the wiring. And a couple of potential problems.
The first thing we noticed when Arnold removed the original Gibson potentiometers and the 3-way selector switch was how much larger the hole drilled for the switch was. Remember that on the Les Paul BFG, the selector switch is located where the tone pot for the neck would normally be on a regular Les Paul.
I was a little worried because the tone control for the neck pickup was going to be re-situated there and that the hole would be too large to hold the pot in place. Fortunately, the metal washer that held the nut for the tone pot was wide enough to cover the hole entirely.
The second thing we noticed was the unusually long pickup selector switch used on the BFG. Unlike the usual Switchcraft switch used by Gibson, this switch was a good 1/2" or so longer. Again I was worried that the switch would be too long for the cavity where the killswitch originally was.
Fortunately again, the plastic selector switch cavity cover fit over nicely, but in full contact with the square base of the switch. No problems there.
And did I mention that the Les Paul BFGs come with these cool clear acrylic covers for both the pickup selector and main control cavity?
The original killswitch came mounted on a nice, sturdy countersunk metal barrel that held the switch very solidly in place. After all, if one was to go ape with the killswitch all the way through a show, it had better be solid.
This metal barrel also fit the 3-way selector beautifully, but because of its slightly larger diameter, Arnold had to file and enlarge the hole of the plastic Rhythm-Treble selector switch ring. The cream plastic ring is purely cosmetic, I know, but I felt that the guitar would look incomplete without it.
Les Paul forums for their sweet tonal properties. They weren't that cheap but a definite improvement nonetheless, on the matte-orange .022 ceramic caps that came with the guitar. And as you can see in the pic, Arnold very thoughtfully applied rubber heat-shrink insulation to each leg of both capacitors.
If you're interested in these Russian vintage capacitors, the part number and description for them is K40Y-9 PIO (paper-in-oil). They come with a dark silver body and have just a +/-10% tolerance variance.
Arnold then asked me if I wanted my guitar wired in the 'modern' style or with traditional 50's wiring. These things always give me a case of option anxiety.
Consulting the Oracle Of All Things Gibson (the entity also known as our good buddy Sherman), he recommended going with the 50's wiring for more twang and clarity -- muddy-sounding Les Pauls, he said, usually came with the so-called 'modern' wiring. And with the P90 in the neck position, traditional 50's wiring would bring out the bright single-coil qualities of that pickup even more.
It's nice to have friends who know stuff!
Les Paul traditional 50's wiring. Very neat work!
Arnold proffered a practical solution to my conundrum and said that he would wire the guitar with 'modern' wiring, and then switch to 50's wiring to compare. Apparently, it was just a matter of moving one of the legs of the capacitors to a different lug on the potentiometer.
'Night and day' is probably the best way I could describe the difference between the two wiring schemes. The modern wiring sounded like how you would expect a Les Paul to sound -- fat and creamy, with the notes in a chord just melding together. If you were playing heavy-rock or metal, the modern wiring would probably be more suitable.
The traditional 50's wiring brought out a lot more clarity and and brightness. You could hear each of the notes in a chord, even through a distortion pedal. Single notes popped more, and had more definition with richer overtones. You could hear the string as you played.
Another thing I noticed was that the volume and tone pots seemed more responsive. Playing through a Chandler Tube Driver with the gain up three-quarters (which is a ton of gain), I immediately noticed that rolling back the volume controls on the guitar to 3 or 4 cleaned up the sound considerably. Also, rolling the tone controls back, even to zero, didn't make the sound muddy or woofy. And the combination of using the neck P90 pickup and rolling the tone control back to 4 or 5 put me squarely in Grant Green-Wes Montgomery territory.
I was convinced -- 50's wiring it is then.
So, after about a month and a half of working on my Les Paul BFG project, we have reached the point where the guitar is probably more traditional Les Paul than BFG!
The guitar is light, probably from having all that wood shaved off the top, resonant, and a joy to play.
No surprise that it has taken on a different personality from its previous incarnation. And it is loud acoustically. A lot louder than it was before.
Sherman probably said it best, "I don't remember your guitar sounding this good."
Pretty cool, coming from someone who used to sing in a club band every Monday and Thursday night for years with me playing this very same guitar!

From Wikivoyage
Dupont Circle is a trendy historic neighborhood in Washington D.C. It is popular due to its night clubs, bars, cafes, art galleries, and shops.
Understand[edit]
Pierre Charles L'Enfant's original plan for Washington, D.C. included a number of grand boulevards, radiating out and intersecting with one another in a way that would create public squares and green space. One such circle, Dupont Circle, lies at the intersection of Connecticut Ave, which emanates from the White House and runs roughly north-south, New Hampshire Ave, which runs diagonally, and Massachusetts Ave which runs roughly east-west.
The Dupont Circle area remained largely undeveloped until after the Civil War, when demand for housing from returning soldiers and freed slaves spurred additional development in D.C. Construction of the traffic circle, originally called Pacific Circle, began in 1871. In 1884, the circle was renamed after Civil War Rear Admiral Samuel Francis DuPont, partial heir to the DuPont family fortune, and a bronze statue of him was added. The statue was replaced in 1921 with the large marble fountain that remains to this day. The fountain was designed by Daniel Chester French and Henry Bacon, also the designers of the Lincoln Memorial, and features creatures that symbolize sea, the stars and the wind. It is now a popular gathering spot, with many places to sit.
In the early 1900s, the area became a popular place for wealthy Washingtonians to build their mansions, most notably on Massachusetts Ave.
In the late 1940s, a tunnel was built beneath Dupont Circle as part of a Capital Transit streetcar project. Streetcar service ended in 1962, and several ideas have been proposed for what to do with the underground space, which is currently unused. Along with the streetcar tunnel, another tunnel was constructed to allow Connecticut Ave vehicle traffic to pass beneath, helping to alleviate traffic congestion around the circle.
While the neighborhood suffered considerably during the 1968 riots, it recovered faster than the adjacent neighborhoods of Shaw and the East End due in part to the trendiness brought on by the gay community, which brought a Bohemian feel the area, similar to Greenwich Village in New York City. In the 1980s and 1990s several clubs, bars, and shops opened in the area, furthering the gentrification process.
The neighborhood is now a very popular place to live for young people without cars or children, as well as by the wealthy elite who can afford some of the highest home prices in the city.
Get in[edit]
By Metrorail[edit]
For more information on riding the Metrorail in Washington DC, see Washington DC#Get around.
Metro is exceptionally convenient in Dupont Circle—the Dupont Circle stop on the Red Line is right under the circle itself.
By bus[edit]
The following are the main bus routes operating in Dupont Circle, along with links to timetables and route maps. For more information on riding buses in Washington DC, see Washington DC#Get around.
Bus G2 runs along P St between Georgetown and Shaw and is a good way to travel east-west. It stops on P St just off the circle on both sides.
Bus L2 is a good way to quickly get up 18th St to Adams Morgan—it runs up from K St along 20th to New Hampshire, around the circle, back on New Hampshire, and then up 18th St.
Bus 42 runs between Chinatown and Mount Pleasant, stopping in Dupont Circle. It is a good alternative to the Metro to getting to the National Mall area, passing many historical buildings en route.
D.C. Circulator's Dupont Circle–Georgetown–Rosslyn "Light Blue" Line runs from the corner of 19th and N Streets, near the south exit of the Dupont Circle Metro station, to Rosslyn, via the West End and Georgetown.
By car[edit]
Unless you are an experienced D.C. driver, it is very easy to get confused in Dupont Circle, or worse yet, wind up on the barbarous circle itself.
Connecticut Ave is the main thoroughfare. Massachusetts Ave is busy as well, but its traffic patterns are too confusing to be of much practical value. If passing through, make sure to stay in the left lanes to go through a tunnel under the circle, not around it. Traffic is terrible on the circle, in volume, confusion, and rage. If you accidentally get stuck driving around the circle and don't know what you are doing, stay in the outer lane and get off to save yourself the headache. P St is the best route west to Georgetown.
Parking[edit]
Street parking is scarce, and limited to 2 hours during the daytime on weekdays. There are several parking garages, with daily rates in the $15-$20 range. Late at night, you can find street parking in the deserted business district just south of M St in the West End.

The 55,764 square-foot Anderson House, which is perhaps better described as a castle, was built in 1902-1905, as the home of Larz Anderson and his wife. Upon Anderson's death, the house was given as a gift to the Society of the Cincinnati which was something of an American noble order dedicated to preserving the legacy of the American Revolution founded in 1783 after the Revolutionary War.

The Cosmos Club, a private social club, bought the house in 1950, and continues to occupy the mansion.
Do[edit]
Dupont Circle has relatively few activities and is generally not a great place for kids. The actual Dupont Circle, around which the neighborhood is centered, has a nice park in the middle of the traffic circle. It's a favorite neighborhood spot to read, play chess, and people-watch. On summer weekends there are relatively frequent musical performances.
Comedy clubs[edit]
38.90507-77.041131 DC Improv, 1140 Connecticut Ave NW. First-come-first-served seating.
Festivals & events[edit]

Capital Pride. June. Multiple Capital Pride Events; held annually. The Pride Parade usually begins at the intersection of P St. & 21st St., continues around Dupont Circle, and on toward U St. in Shaw.
Buy[edit]
Shops on Connecticut Ave north of Dupont Circle
Art galleries[edit]
Most galleries in Dupont Circle participate in First Friday Dupont, an open house from 6PM-8PM on the first Friday of every month, with a strong social bent (cocktails, music, etc.).
Hillyer Art Space, 9 Hillyer Ct NW, ☏ +1 202 338-0680. M 10AM-5PM, Tu-F 11AM-7PM, Sa 11AM-4PM. This is one of the hipper galleries in town, often sporting live DJs. It's mission is tied vaguely to international, cross-cultural communication, and puts on exhibits by established international artists, as well as locals.
Marsha Mateyka Gallery, 2012 R St NW, ☏ +1 202 328-0088. W-Sa 11AM-5PM. Location is a plus at this gallery, housed in pretty old Washingtonian brownstone, rather than the usual characterless minimalist whitewashed galleries you find everywhere. Shows principally contemporary works, American and European, by some big names in the contemporary art world—buyers should expect high prices here.
Books and music[edit]
Dupont Circle may not have many bookstores, but those that are here are beloved city-wide.
38.91085-77.0438711 Kramerbooks and Afterwords Cafe, 1517 Connecticut Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 387-1462. Su-Th 7:30AM-1AM, F-Sa 24 hrs; brunch (popular and crowded): Sa-Su 8AM-3PM. A great independent bookstore and a tried and true Washingtonian experience. It's an odd bookstore, in that it has a full restaurant and bar—pick up a travel guide inferior to this one and then sit down for filet mignon, perhaps? There is also one meager computer, at the bar, hooked up for public internet use. Live music on weekends. Food: $10-20.
Middle East Books and More, 1902 18th St NW (between T St & U St), ☏ +1 202 939-6050. M-F 10-6; Sat 11-7. A non-profit bookstore selling books, pottery, and food related to the Middle East.
Red Onion Records, 1628 U St NW, ☏ +1 202 986-2718. Tu-Sa noon-7PM, Su noon-5PM. The friendly owner is an afficianado with a huge second-hand vinyl collection (and CDs and books about music). The store is quite small, so he has a carefully hand-picked selection on display, with some rare finds waiting for a browser to uncover. If there's a specialty here, it's indie.
38.909505-77.0450662 Second Story Books and Antiques, 2000 P St NW, ☏ +1 202 659-8884. 10AM-10PM daily. This is the one and only great used bookstore anywhere nearby. The collection is big and well curated by very knowledgeable staff, and they have a section for rare and collectible books. It's one of the best browsing bookstores you'll ever come across.
Fashion[edit]
38.9067532-77.04205043 Betsy Fisher, 1224 Connecticut Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 785-1975. M-W 10AM-7PM, F 10AM-9PM, Sa 10AM-6PM, Su noon-4PM. Sorry stereotypes, D.C. has some great fashion boutiques. Ms. Fisher is a careful curator, with a fiercely loyal customer base, attentive service (complimentary drinks, for one), and with clothes ranging from conservative to very trendy. You'll pay a price for this, though!
38.9113761-77.04408884 Lou Lou Boutique, 1601 Connecticut Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 588-0027. An affordable accessories and jewelry boutique chain much loved by locals for its trendy, very cute items. 6 locations in DC.
Proper Topper, 1350 Connecticut Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 842-3055. M-F 10AM-8PM, Sa 10AM-7PM, Su noon-6PM. This is where you get your hats! From fedoras to baseball caps, they have hats and accessories for women, men, and children, and all of them are stylish.
Other[edit]
The Chocolate House, 1904 18th St NW, ☏ +1 202 328-1506. Tu-Sa Noon-8PM; Su Noon-5PM. This shop, tucked away on a lower level, carries a wide selection of chocolates, and has small art gallery.
38.91154-77.045035 Tabletop, 1608 20th St NW, ☏ +1 202 387-7117. M-Sa noon-8PM, Su noon-6PM. A quirky, stylish little gift shop with all sorts of items, but an especial emphasis on anything related to interior design. It's a fun place to browse even if you don't want to buy, but this can be dangerous.
Eat[edit]
Rowhouses just around the corner from D.C.'s most active nightlife and dining districts
Dupont Circle has plenty of dining options, including some of the best in the city, but keep in mind this is expensive territory with limited budget options aside from chain restaurants. For more affordable local dining, visit the nearby neighborhoods of Shaw or Columbia Heights.
Budget[edit]
38.90655-77.0413731 Julia's Empanadas, 1221 Connecticut Ave NW (between M St & N St), ☏ +1 202 861-8828. Su-Th 10AM-2AM, F-Sa 10AM-4AM.

Guess which one of the desserts is especially popular. $25-50.
38.9137931-77.0461295 Bistrot du Coin, 1738 Connecticut Ave NW (between R St & S St), ☏ +1 202 234-6969. Su-W 11:30AM-11PM; Th-Sa 11:30AM-1AM. Usually crowded and noisy, but the French/Belgian bistro cooking is great, and the atmosphere is lively and happy. They do a mean mussels with pomme frite. Also try the monkfish. $14-27.
Boqueria Washington DC, 1837 M St NW, ☏ +1 202 558-9545. A very stylish tapas bar with locations in New York City and Hong Kong and 2 locations in DC. Very popular for their $39 all-you-can-eat-and drink tapas brunch for 2.5 hours on weekends.

Lauriol Plaza, 1835 18th St NW (between Swann St & T St), ☏ +1 202 387-0035. A huge Mexican restaurant with a roof deck.
Otello Restaurant, 1329 Connecticut Ave NW (between N St & P St), ☏ +1 202 429-0209. Italian food on red-checkered tablecloths.
38.90984-77.045147 Pizzeria Paradiso, 2003 P St NW, ☏ +1 202 223-1245. M-Th 11:30AM-11PM; Fr-Sa 11:30AM-Midnight; Su Noon-10PM. One of two locations of the famous local gourmet pizza place. They don't take reservations, so the Saturday night wait can be brutal (on a less crowded night, patio seating is nice). But never fear, they do a healthy take-out business too. Also of note is there is an extensive list of rotating draft and one cask beer. 3 locations in the DC area. $14-22.
Raku Asian Dining, 1900 Q St NW, ☏ +1 202 265-7258. Great sushi with outdoor seating.
38.91601-77.04198 Regent Thai, 1910 18th St NW (between T St & U St), ☏ +1 202 232-1781. Lunch: M-F 11:30AM-3PM; Sa Noon-3PM; Dinner: Su-Th 5PM-10PM; F-Sa 5PM-11PM. Thai in the U.S. (and certainly in D.C.) is often nice for a cheap meal with just a little bit of flair, and not much beyond that. But this is one of best Thai places in the city, and serves up less greasy, more authentic dishes, in an attractive space (and it's not quite as cheap). Strangely, they serve free sodas—not just free refills—which makes this a good bet if you're thirsty. The spice levels, which you can control per request, are higher here than you'd find elsewhere, so those extra drinks are extra useful. $15-30.
The Riggsby @ Kimpton Carlyle Hotel, 1731 New Hampshire Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 787-1500. American food by Chef Michael Schlow.
St. Arnold's Mussel Bar, 1827 Jefferson Pl NW, ☏ +1 202 833-1321. Great Belgian food - including mussels and fries - in a cave-like basement.
Urbana @ Hotel Palomar, 2121 P St NW, ☏ +1 202 956-6650. M-F 7-10:30AM; 11:30AM-3PM; Su-Th 5:30-10PM; F-Sa 5:30-11PM (bar Su-Th to midnight, F-Sa to 2AM). A good place for a cocktail, upscale pizza, and happy hour specials (M-F 4PM-7PM), or for a full meal of their fine Mediterranean-influenced cooking. $28-45.
Splurge[edit]
Iron Gate, 1734 N St NW, ☏ +1 202 524-5202. Swanky spot with Italian and Greek food.
38.910096-77.03825849 Komi, 1509 17th St NW (between P St & Q St), ☏ +1 202 332-9200. Tu-Th 5:30PM-9:30PM; Fr-Sa 5:30PM-10PM. Declared by serious foodies one of the best restaurants in the country, this is a place for a special occasion (or simply is a special occasion), as it's both super expensive and very memorable. Mediterranean/New American cuisine, specializing in seafood. Reservations are available a month in advance but weekends book up once they open up. Weekday reservations are easier to get and last minute availability is posted on the website. 12-course dinner tasting: $150; wine pairings cost an additional $75.
Little Serow, 1511 17th St NW (between P St & Q St), ☏ +1 202 332-9200. A dark, intimate cave-like romantic restaurant that serves food from Northern Thailand. Fixed menu changes weekly. Serow rhymes with arrow. Prix fixe menu: $49-59.
38.9098337-77.046268310 Obelisk, 2029 P St NW, ☏ +1 202 872-1180. Tu-Sa 6PM-10PM. Very, very classy, and very, very tasty Tuscan cuisine. Obelisk's five course pri-fixe menu changes daily, so everything is always fresh and seasonal. It is reputed to be both one of the city's best dining experiences and one of its best deals. It is, however, small and therefore quite hard to get reservations. Plan well in advance. 5-course dinner menu: $78, $88 on F-Sa. Wine pairings cost an additional $53-58.
38.90664-77.0432111 The Palm, 1225 19th St NW (between M St & N St), ☏ +1 202 293-9091. M-F 11:45AM-3PM, 3PM-10PM; Sa 5:30PM-10PM; Su 5:30PM-9:30PM. The second location of the nationwide chain steakhouse, the Palm has a pretty good claim to best steak in town. There isn't a whole lot of reason to come beyond political celebrity spotting and steak, but that should be reason enough. $35-70.
Plume @ The Jefferson Hotel, 1200 16th St NW (At M Street NW), ☏ +1 202 448-2300. Tu-Sa 6PM-10PM. Classic French cuisine served in a traditional American gorgeous interior. The food is competitive with the best the city has to offer, and the service is perhaps a step above, with details covered down to the string-bound parchment you receive on your way out, upon which your servers have listed the wines you sampled. Prix fixe dinner: $98-$280 per person.
38.90993-77.0382412 Sushi Taro, 1503 17th St NW, ☏ +1 202 462-8999. Lunch: M-F 11:30AM-2PM; dinner: M-Sa 5:30PM-10PM. A top-notch sushi restaurant. You'll spend a fortune, but if you like seafood, this place will blow you away. Lunch mains: $13-35; Dinner prix-fixe options: $90-245 per person.
Desserts[edit]
38.91025-77.0382813 Mr. Yogato, 1515 17th St NW, ☏ +1 202 629-3531. A must visit, not just for the great frozen yogurt, but for the experience. Play the Nintendo game system and receive discounted yogurt based on your score. There are plenty of other ways to get free yogurt such as reciting by heart braveheart's freedom speech. $3-$5.
Drink[edit]
There are bars, clubs, and lounges catering to all sorts of different people, but the general theme is that they are upscale - you won't find many dive bars here and you likely won't be allowed into a club wearing sneakers or shorts. The main nightlife stretches are along Connecticut Ave just north and south of the Circle, P St west of the Circle, and on 17th between P and T St.
There are plenty of coffeeshops, including many Starbucks locations. Independent coffee shops are in ample supply as well, most of which offer outdoor seating in nice weather to watch the crowds go by.
Bars[edit]
Bar Dupont @ The Dupont Circle Hotel, ☏ +1 202 797-0169. M-Th 11:30AM-1:30AM, F 11:30AM-2:30AM, Sa 11AM-2:30AM, Su 11AM-11PM. A classy place at the bottom of the Dupont Hotel with the best people watching in town through its wall of windows right on Dupont Circle. The drinks are excellent, and the happy hour special—$5 for their signature cocktails—is quite a bargain for this location.
38.91029-77.048581 Bier Baron Tavern, 1523 22nd St NW, ☏ +1 202 293-1885. M-Th 11:30AM-2AM, F 11:30AM-3AM, Sa 6PM-3AM, Su 6PM-2AM. Features 300+ different beers on the menu, including around 40 on tap. The servers are remarkably knowledgeable if you are looking for particular recommendations—and they might talk you out of that second rate Kenyan lager you just ordered in favor of a far superior Belgian beer. Try the fried oreos. Beer: $4-$14.
38.9084106-77.04241762 The Big Hunt, 1345 Connecticut Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 785-2333. M-Th 4PM-2AM, F 4PM-3AM, Sa 4PM-3AM, Su 5PM-2AM. The Big Hunt is another very popular, very large bar right off the circle, full of friendly twenty and thirty-something singles. The safari theme throughout is interesting, but those comfy booths are the main reason to have your beers here. The red basement has extraordinarily bizarre decor and is a lot quieter for conversations. There are 3 levels including a rooftop and second bar room and basement that occasionally open to accommodate overflow.
The Board Room, 1737 Connecticut Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 518-7666. Features 20 beers on tap and vintage board games for rent @ $2 each!
38.9084369-77.04370343 Buffalo Billiards, 1330 19th St NW, ☏ +1 202 684-8700. Su-Th noon-2AM, F-Sa noon-3AM. Huge bar in a basement right off Dupont Circle. Popular among fraternity boys, but a good place to watch football games, drink beer, and play billiards. Serves appetizers till late.
38.90982-77.048594 Fireplace, 2161 P St NW, ☏ +1 202 293-1293. M-Th 1PM-2AM, F-Sa 1PM-3AM, Su 1PM-2AM. Black men's gay bar that serves decent brick-oven baked pizzas. Always crowded—to the point of spilling out onto the street—after dark. Upstairs sees dancing on a very dimly lit dance floor.
38.91097-77.038275 Fox and Hounds, 1537 17th St NW, ☏ +1 202 232-6307. Su-Th 11AM-2AM, F 11AM-3AM, Sa 10AM-3AM. There's one big reason to visit this bar, and it's the big, friendly, low-key patio on the street—this is some of the best people watching in the city. Not a bad place to spot celebrities (of the entertainment variety).
38.9121-77.044536 Gazuza Lounge, 1629 Connecticut Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 667-5500. Su-Th 5PM-2AM, F-Sa 5PM-3AM. An upscale lounge where you can hear yourself talk is a find in Dupont Circle, but that's hardly the only hook. The excellent mixed drinks take a back seat in popularity to the hookahs, old Looney Tunes cartoons run on big flatscreens, and then there is the inaccessibly crowded patio overlooking the street.
38.91047-77.038217 JR's Bar and Grill, 1519 17th St NW, ☏ +1 202 328-0090. Su-Th 4PM-2AM, F-Sa 2PM-3AM. Gay central! On weekends, and even weeknights, JR's is packed with fashion-conscious yuppie gay men, although there is no dress code, and the crowd isn't snobby-judgmental. In general, the friendly people are the reason to come—otherwise it's just a very crowded bar. Monday show tunes nights are very popular.
38.90659-77.041378 Lucky Bar, 1221 Connecticut Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 331-3733. M-Th 3PM-2AM, F 3PM-3AM, Sa noon-3AM, Su 9PM-2AM. A fratboy-ish fake Irish pub/sports bar is really a breath of fresh air in this pretentious neighborhood. The big hook here is the soccer—about 25 TV screens of it every night. Weekends are when the frat-boy ethos can start to get tiresome, unless you really like the crowded, drunken, yuppie-college bar scene. $3 beers during happy hour (4PM-8PM).
Madhatter, 1319 Connecticut Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 833-1495. Alice in Wonderland theme. They serve a spiked sugar punch in a giant green hat for $35. Large dance floor.
38.9144-77.046499 Russia House Restaurant and Lounge, 1800 Connecticut Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 234-9433. M-Th 5PM-midnight, F 5PM-2AM, Sa 6PM-2AM; Restaurant closes M-F 10PM, Sa-Su 11PM. Serves traditional Russian fare and vodka, with more than 30 vodkas to choose from. The vodka bar is the main draw, full of ex-pats and Russophiles talking all things Russia, while the restaurant is a bit of an afterthought. Live music W-Th. Owned by D.C. native Aaron McGovern and Lithuanian Arturas "Jeepo" Vorobjovas. Hockey player Alex Ovechkin has been spotted here several times. Baltika/Švyturys Beer: $7; Vodka: $10, Martini: $16.
Clubs[edit]
Dupont Circle is one of the major clubbing areas of the city. There are plenty of parties going on here nightly, the most famous and established of which are at the Eighteenth Street Lounge.
38.90836-77.0423710 Cafe Citron, 1343 Connecticut Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 530-8844. M-Th 11:30AM-2AM, F-Sa 4PM-3AM. A super-crowded Latin salsa/reggaeton dance club that is one of the best bets for a good party on a weekday. Weekends are too crowded to dance. Definitely try one of their renowned mojitos. No cover, strict door policy (i.e. no shorts allowed).
Decades DC, 1219 Connecticut Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 853-3498, ✉ info@decadesdc.com. A 3-story retro-themed club that plays music from the 1980s and 1990s. Cover charge: Usually $20.
38.90622-77.041911 Eighteenth Street Lounge, 1212 18th ST NW, ☏ +1 202 466-3922. Tu-W 9:30PM-2AM, Th 5:30PM-2AM, F 5:30PM-3AM, Sa 9:30PM-3AM. D.C.'s most famous club may have gone to lengths not to become so (no sign, no publicity), but was destined to fail to be obscure. Thievery Corporation, the owners, have long been the biggest name in the local music scene, but lately they have become one of the bigger names in electronica internationally. It's a multi-level house party most nights of the week, with the best DJs in town, bossa nova (weekends) on the third floor, and a swanky atmosphere. The door policy is strict, so dress nicely and wear your best fashion. The crowd inside is both sophisticated, older, and pretty low-key. If you're not in the mood for a party, check out Thievery Corp's music anyway—you'll probably recognize a few tracks from movies, TV commercials, etc. Popular for their Wednesday night Reggae shows. Cover: $10-20.
Kabin Lounge, 1337 Connecticut Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 810-2770. Stylish bar - with a chic rustic design, where you can drink luxurious cocktails.
Larry's Lounge, 1840 18th St NW, ☏ +1 202 483-1483, ✉ info@decadesdc.com. M-Th 5PM-2AM, F 5PM-3AM, Sa 11AM-3AM. This club is one of many gay hotspots in D.C., set apart mostly for the fact that people with differing tastes will be happy. The first floor is a fairly relaxed bar scene where you can chat, while the upstairs club is thumping, raucous, and dancing. The shirtless bartenders are also a draw.
38.90584-77.0423612 Ozio Restaurant and Lounge, 1813 M St NW, ☏ +1 202 822-6000. M-Th 11:30AM-2AM, F 11:30AM-3AM, Sa 6PM-3AM. A self proclaimed cigar and martini bar, which at times seems much more of a swanky, upscale, four-floor dance club than anything else. The crowds get thick F-Sa, which makes for a good night of dancing, while weeknights are better for heading to the first floor bar for that cigar and martini. The cigar menu is long and impressive.
Cafes[edit]
Filter Coffeehouse and Espresso Bar, 1726 20th Street, NW, ☏ +1 202 234-5837. Mo–F:7AM–7PM, Sa&Sun:8AM–7PM. Your eyes are attracted from the people moving in this semi-basement location. Something tells you to check it out, you are not disappointed. 3 locations in DC.
38.91129-77.0381313 Java House, 1645 Q St NW, ☏ +1 202 387-6622. Su-Th 7AM-10:30PM, F-Sa 7AM-11PM. A long-time neighborhood coffee shop that roasts its own beans. The biggest draw is the plentiful, shaded outdoor seating, which fills up with laptops (free WiFi and plenty of outdoor outlets!) checking emails while enjoying some good 17th St people watching.
38.9162-77.041814 Jolt 'N Bolt, 1918 18th St NW, ☏ +1 202 232-0077. M-F 7AM-8:30PM, Sa 7AM-9PM, Su 7AM-8:30PM. Another neighborhood outdoor seating and WiFi coffee shop, this one with a more private seating area on the side of the building. The inside is attractive, decorated with local artwork.
38.91281-77.0387915 Steam Cafe & Pizzeria, 1700 17th St NW, ☏ +1 202 483-5296. Su-Th 7AM-1AM, F-Sa 7AM-3AM. Steam distinguishes itself from the other independent neighborhood coffee shops by staying up late. It's mellow, plays classical music, and has particularly reliable WiFi.
38.91276-77.0459316 Teaism, 2009 R St NW. M-F 7:30AM-10PM, Sa-Su 9:30AM-9PM; Brunch Sa-Su 9:30AM-2:30PM. Tea shop with Asian inspired foods. Breakfast, lunch, and desserts offered on menu. Great selection of fine teas, although the prices exceed the (high) quality. Good place for lunch/brunch. Seating is limited, so if it looks busy you might want to look elsewhere (but there's also seating upstairs). $2-9.
Sleep[edit]
The Brewmaster's Castle
Dupont Circle is a great place to stay when in D.C., and should be even more popular than it is. Rates are more affordable than at the big chain hotels in the touristy East End, there are several charming independent options, it's a great area to come back to in the evening, has convenient metro service, and is just a few blocks north of the main business district. If staying towards the southwest end, you'll be right by the business district of the West End, and a short walk from Georgetown, while the northeast side puts you closer to main dining and nightlife strips.
38.917743-77.0459711 American Guest House, 2005 Columbia Road NW, ☏ +1 202 588-1180. Check-in: 3:00PM, check-out: 11:00AM. A fine bed & breakfast. $100-219.
38.91342-77.039582 Kimpton Carlyle, 1731 New Hampshire Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 234-3200 (hotel), toll-free: +1-877-301-0019 (reservations). The interior is gorgeous—an Art-Deco masterpiece. Aside from the aesthetics, and reasonable prices, the premium Tempur-Pedic mattresses are another good reason to stay here. All rooms have gourmet coffee machines and full service kitchens, and daily passes to the nearby Washington Sports Club. Free bicycle rental. $140-200.
38.91644-77.046953 The Churchill Hotel, 1914 Connecticut Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 797-2000. Originally opened as a luxury apartment building in 1906, this hotel is nice, upscale, and unique, without being either trendy or swanky. It's a simple, lovely place just far north enough of the Circle to qualify as being in a quieter neighborhood. Beds get high marks for comfort but the rooms are small. $125-285.
38.90739-77.040014 The Tabard Inn, 1739 N St NW, ☏ +1 202 785-1277. A small, old, charming inn on a quiet tree-lined street just five blocks from the White House. 40 sleeping rooms, each unique in character and design, aiming to preserve the turn-of-the-century atmosphere, while keeping decor eclectic. In keeping with the historic bent of this hotel believed to be the oldest continually operating hotel in the city, there are no TVs. Rooms include free gym passes to the nearby Washington Sports Club. Even if you are not staying at the hotel, the Tabard is a great place for a relaxed evening cocktail hour, and some terrific live jazz on Sunday nights. The small hotel restaurant is as attractive as it is highly acclaimed, serving delicious New American cuisine. Some of the cheaper rooms have shared baths. $113-218; restaurant: $28-45.
38.91819-77.048485 Windsor Park Hotel, 2116 Kalorama Rd NW, toll-free: +1-800-247-3064. An old fashioned, and slightly worn, hotel in a quiet, beautiful spot on Kalorama, several blocks north of the commercial areas. Simple, Queen Anne-style rooms. $100-150.
38.90702-77.03816 Beacon Hotel and Corporate Quarters, 1615 Rhode Island Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 296-2100. Contemporary design, cosmopolitan style hotel with upscale suites. New York-inspired studio suites and upscale turret suites also available. Ask for a room on the upper floors. Views of the White House and the Mall from the rooftop bar are spectacular. $150-260.
38.91083-77.045677 The Embassy Row Hotel, 2015 Massachusetts Ave NW, ☏ +1-855-893-1011. This hotel by Destination Hotels & Resorts is a life-style hotel in Dupont Circle. The rooftop pool is open Memorial Day–Labor Day and offers non-guests day passes beginning in the afternoon for $30. $190-300.
38.90988-77.047368 Kimpton Hotel Palomar, 2121 P St NW, ☏ +1 202 448-1800. A flashy, trendy Dupont Circle location of the Kimpton chain, with a penchant for L.A.-style designs and leopard print, and a reputation for very good service. Pet friendly hotel, outdoor pool. $180-300.
38.90744-77.039699 Kimpton Topaz Hotel, 1733 N St NW, ☏ +1 202 393-3000. One of the several hip Kimpton boutique hotels in Dupont Circle, this one has fairly large rooms, soothing but funky decor with a vague oriental theme, and no gym. The upscale bar, Topaz Bar, is a great, relatively quiet place for drinks, with similarly funky decor. $140-230.
38.91043-77.0430510 The Dupont Circle Hotel, 1500 New Hampshire Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 483-6000. You can't beat the location of being literally on Dupont Circle. This hotel, remodeled in 2009, has stylish, sleek, contemporary decor, and is a little overpriced compared to the services you'd get at other hotels in the same price range, but that is to be expected given the real estate. The recently refurbished bar as very high quality cocktails, with great views out the windows right on the circle. $190-350.
38.912416-77.04980411 Embassy Circle Guest House, 2224 R St NW, ☏ +1 202 232-7744, toll-free: +1-877-232-7744, ✉ embassy@dcinns.com. The building, surrounded by embassies, is itself a former embassy housed in a historically restored mansion. The 11 elegant guest rooms offer modern amenities, private bathrooms, and are decorated with Persian rugs and original artwork, mostly by guests. A gourmet breakfast buffet and evening reception are included. $180-295.
38.91054-77.0469712 The Fairfax at Embassy Row, 2100 Massachusetts Ave NW, ☏ +1 202 293-2100. Since 1927, The Fairfax has been home to many distinguished travelers including congressman, senators, and ambassadors who made the hotel their permanent residence. Prominent tenants included Mrs Henry Cabot Lodge, Admiral and Mrs Chester William Nimitz, and Senator John McClellan. A young George H.W. Bush and his parents, Senator and Mrs. Prescott Bush also made The Fairfax their home when in town. 259 guest rooms and suites with views of Embassy Row. $200-280.
38.90596-77.0369313 The Jefferson Hotel, 1200 16th St NW, ☏ +1 202 448-2300. Housed in a gorgeous 1923 Beaux-Arts building is this small, ultra-luxury hotel, where rooms come with butlers, and a focus on historical charm coexists with flatscreen TVs embedded in the bathroom mirrors and microchips alerting room service when your plates need to be cleared. Much of the decor is dedicated to Thomas Jefferson, representing his life and his interests. The on-site spa, reading room, piano bar (and its cocktails) (Su-M 11:30AM-midnight, Tu-Sa 11:30AM-1AM), and two restaurants are as beautiful as they are excellent. $350-800.
38.90584-77.0464114 St Gregory Hotel, 2033 M St NW, ☏ +1 202 530-3600. With the exception of the lobby's Marylin Monroe skirt-in-the-wind statue, there isn't a whole lot that's distinctive about the St Gregory, but it lives up to the name of a luxury hotel, in terms of excellent service and extra thoughtful details. Its clientèle certainly has been distinguished, having played host to big shots in the worlds of art, entertainment, and politics. You can also enjoy a meal at Tredici Enoteca, the hotel's restaurant in the lobby. $100-450.

More and more nowadays, the wealthy are turning to pawn shops for lending services and more. The images of the seedy pawn shop for the down on their luck patrons is becoming a thing of the past in many cases.

I love to speak about my books or my writing journey with both children or adults. I also enjoy conducting writing workshops. My very favorite presentation to do is a poetry workshop. So many people (young and old) are afraid of poetry and I like to help them realize that not only is there nothing to be afraid of, it can be a lot of fun.
For several years I received grants to teach poetry to incarcerated teenaged boys and girls. I was assigned to a school for a period of anywhere from six weeks to a full school year, visiting the classroom several times each week. The young writers grew more confident with expressing themselves over time and they truly amazed me with their honest poems.
I also enjoy speaking to community groups about having the courage to follow your dreams and what it takes to make your dreams come true.
If you would like to have me come speak to your classroom or group, please contact me so we can discuss what type of program would be right for you. After I have more information, I can give you a breakdown of the fees at that time.
I look forward to creating a special program just for YOU!

Wow! J'commence tout juste a bâtir mon atelier pour ma première et nouvelle toupie et je trouve cet idée merveilleuse!
Je viens tout juste de convaincre ma copine de renouveler nos petites planche a découper! Hihi!
Bon timing ! D'autres idées vont suivre concernant les petites planches à découper. Et même les plus grosses.
Where can I see the other ideas for these?
Pat, click on the Jigs Index tab at the very top of each page of my blog.
Serge, I not finding the article showing how you made these??
Pat, You will find all the techniques I used by clicking the "Technique Index" tab at the very top (or click here). Take a look at each photo to find what you need. Then you will learn how I made the slots as well as the circle cut-outs. For each technique you will be linked to the appropriate pages. The second paragraph of the current page also tell about how I made my templates.
Très bonne idée. J'ai déjà une planche à découper usée que ma femme avait jetée dans mon atelier, que j'utilisait à autre chose, mais là je commence avec la toupie.
Ces planches à découper sont très utiles, neuves ou usées. Bonne chance avec la toupie.
