She's done! And just in the nick of time for the Q2 FAL with Adrianne at On the Windy Side. This was #6, a bit of a mystery project, a secret, on my list. I had in mind a star quilt out of one of Pam & Nicky Lintott's jellyroll books. But then I designed a quilt for H2H, and then, I thought, what if I make it a bigger block and use this for the blue secret quilt?
There were definitely some quilting pains along the way, but you wouldn't know it to look at these photos. Here is the flimsy post.
I laid it down by the patio doors in the sun to see the texture, and that was when I knew I just had to get it outside in the late afternoon sun for photos.
I hopped in the SUV, and zipped up the street to the Kingswood Inn, a historic stately home built in 1859 by the man for whom Kingsville is named. I knew the quilt would look good on the old stone wall.
I'm so glad I did; within 10 minutes of me getting back home, the sun had gone in behind clouds.
I knew I wanted swirls to contrast with all the angles, but I had some issues with them. I don't think they're circular enough for one, I can't seem to echo evenly for another, and I was having troubles overlapping them because I wanted these fairly large. I also tried doing what Kathleen of Kathleen Quilts has done in a few of her beautiful recent quilts: putting a ring of pebbles in the swirl which makes me think of bracelets. She calls it Bubble Swirl. Doing the pebbles was one of my meltdown moments. They didn't seem round enough or right enough. However, from a few feet away, they are looking okay methinks. Once this baby is washed up and crinkly, I think they'll look even better.
In the centre of the quilt I decided to emphasize the woven effect I was going for by flipping the ribbon blocks. So I did the same FMQ designs I'd done in those vertical ribbon blocks, straight lines and ribbon candy. I then flowed it into more swirls. I think it turned out pretty cool.
There are six stars; I did three designs, two of each.
The above star shows the quilting I did in the top and bottom row of stars, a kind of radiating idea I had. Originally I wanted the small swirls to flow into the larger ones, but it just didn't look right.
Those labels came from my Auntie Phyl. She is a seamstress extraordinaire, and I mean that to its full extent. She has always liked quilts, but never got into it. She reads my blog.
Here is the label...drum roll.....so by now, Auntie Phyl, you understand that this quilt is going to be winging its way to you in the very near future! She had a very auspicious birthday back in December, which I missed (insert embarrassed and sad face here).
Mine are in there too. I like to do that; it's a way of proving ownership of a quilt, and a secret touch for the person to whom it is gifted. Sometimes I tell them, sometimes I don't and let them find it themselves.
Do you see who was curiously watching the entire photo shoot?
She's still peeking...look at the cluster of trees to the left of the rolled up quilt.
Once the quilt is washed, I'll post a photo.
I didn't do very well this quarter, but there were some other unexpected makes: the Pyramid Pouch for Moda Bakeshop, and the Grande Scrappy Tiles pattern I tested for Cheryl.
I don't have an official name for this quilt or this pattern, which is my own design. It is the same pattern as my H2H quilt, just bigger blocks. I love how this version turned out! Bella had her fair share of input too.
"a scant quarter inch Sandra!"
but you didn't get to see the entire quilt, although I do love the look in amongst the greenery!
Better, but the breeze wafted the one edge over. The stake is there because they are putting in new sewers in the lane behind us, so needed to mark our property line as it abuts the town-owned green strip.
Back to this star quilt, though. I love the "stained glass" effect pics I've seen around the 'net of quilts taken from the back, and I was able to do that with this one!
The light-medium blue used in the inner border and star points is a Quest for the Cure fabric by Northcott. Another fabric I just love but have not worked into a quilt until this one. The background is a 3-yard piece bought at one of the many quilt shop hops I went on, a Jennifer Sampou fabric from a while back. The other blues are scraps from other projects, two fat quarters I bought because I liked them, and a few pieces of a bright blue floral that I bought this winter for the backing of this very quilt. I knew I was making a blue quilt, just hadn't totally committed to a pattern at that point.
This is on my Q2 FAL list, so I have 8 days left to get 'er done!
#22, Jasmine of Quilt Kisses!
And she was right: this is the Detroit River, and because I am standing on the Canadian side, in Windsor, I am looking north towards to Detroit in the USA. This is the only place in Canada where you are south of the US. My little town, Kingsville, is even further south of Windsor. And Point Pelee National Park is the southernmost point on mainland Canada. We are on the same latitude down here as the northern border of California. Cool, huh?
I'll be linking this post up to Patchwork Times' Design Wall Monday, and also (a bit late) for Oh Scrap! at Quilting is More Fun than Housework.
Well, I've torn myself away from my basement enclave to bring you a second finish for this week! This is one of the projects on my Q2 FAL list at On the Windy Side.
I actually had the hand quilting finished last weekend, but this week's posts had to do with the New Bloggers Hop and Cheryl's Grande Scrappy Tiles pattern launch, and so the binding didn't get finished hand-sewing down until yesterday!
This past week in quilting blogland I've seen no less than two others, so 3 counting my own, decades-old projects finally finished. First, I saw some cute baskets that Wendy (she's hilarious) started 26 years ago and finished this week over at The Crafter's Apprentice, and second, I saw a beautiful honeymoon quilt finish by Bernie, the fabric for which was purchased on said honeymoon 17 years ago! So I am in good company showing this finally finished project which I started in 1998 or 99, so 16 or 17 years ago.
And, who knew, but it's an original design! Here I thought I had something new going over the past year with the creative bursts of inspiration -- I'm doodling and sketching and sewing and publishing (eeek- see the Moda Bakeshop button on the sidebar, still excited about that). Apparently this designing thing has been in me and into fabric for longer than I realize.
I love star blocks. They are my favourite. So I put three different ones all within one table runner and set them on point.
I bought all the fabric except for the backing at my LQS at the time, Lori's Country Cottage. I love the Old World Santas fabric. However, it does not show the hand-quilting off very well, and it was really difficult to find a marker that would show the lines I marked, so I just marked small sections at a time. I did a simple cable there. The straight lines in the dark green (which has pretty cool shading, no?) were done right around the start of the new millenium. Can you believe that's over 15 years ago now?!
Although I still have some of each of the fabrics used within the runner, I didn't have enough of any of them for the binding. Happily I had almost a full fat quarter of this red with crowns on that I thought worked really well with the other gold-flecked fabrics.
Fabric: I don't know because I have none left with selvages on!
Yep that grouse fabric just wore right out...darn, right?!
This fabric is from fabric.com, bought this past winter. I thought it was quilting weight cotton, but it is somewhere between that and canvas. I thought maybe I'd still use it for fabric baskets, a bag, or cushion covers...and then a few days ago, it hit me! Did I have enough? Yep, if I pieced two 2.5" strips on the long sides, it would be perfect. With my husband on the super whack-master staple gun, and me on the stretching and positioning of fabric, we did it. Awww, yeah! I love it.

Grande Scrappy Tiles Pattern Testing & A Giveaway!
You've seen this before in fabric selection process and in flimsy form.
And here she is toute finie! I named her Summer Scents Mosaic, a nod to the floral fabrics that are so summery, and the name of the pattern of Cheryl's, Grande Scrappy Tiles, on sale for the next 2 weeks only, for only $6! This is a pattern I tested for Cheryl of Meadow Mist Designs. It is a terrific pattern, a very ingenious layout to get the overall scrappy look, with clear and concise directions. The official launch is today, so if you'd like to see some other variations, click here.
Lots of us agree that quilts 'talk' to us, and this one was no exception. When I laid her down to piece the backing and the batting (more on that experiment in a minute), she just didn't seem quite together.
And yes, ahhh, she was complete.
So the batting experiment. I want this quilt lightweight, as a summer quilt. I'd used flannelette in runners with great success, so I thought, let's give it a try. I'd hoped to pick up flannel, however, for just that bit of extra fluff...big sigh. Even in Fabricland, not a quilt shop, basically the Canadian equivalent of JoAnn Fabrics, flannel was too expensive. I checked out flannelette. Diaper flannelette is what I'd used in runners, but it is a mere 27" wide, so I investigated some soft prints that were 42-43". I found one that was a pale gold, so I thought it wouldn't interfere with the (then planned) backing. Yay, it was on sale for $4.50/metre. Stay tuned for another post on price comparisons in the not-too-distant future. And, by the way, this has a great weight, I'm actually surprised it's as heavy as it is...but then again it is pretty large!
and then somehow, before or after, acquired the same brown floral I used on the front of that quilt for the backing. In all likelihood I could have bought the brown and forgotten I did that. Who knows...anyhow I had enough for the backing of this baby! This came from Alma Sue's in Sarasota.
It quilted up quite nicely! This is prior to washing.
I used Christina Cameli's "Fervent" motif as the all-over meander. I loved this motif!
I did Angela Walters' no marking dot to dot wedge design in the borders. Great ruler work practice for me. This picture shows about an 8" piece of fabric I needed to piece in for the binding! Yep, I used every last scrap of the green. Both of these greens are in the quilt.
Tried to capture one of the many seagulls flitting around and I know there was one in this photo, but it must have blended into the background.
Threads: Isacord pink #2560 in the top with So Fine in the bottom for 1 bobbin and The Bottom Line (prefer this, as does Avril) for 1.5 bobbins. Approximately 500 yards all told.
What was I doing in downtown Windsor at 8 am? I'd just finished my 6:30 am Ashtanga Mysore yoga class! I go 3 times a week. Here is the quilt on the bench right outside the studio!
I will draw a winner on Sunday night about 10 pm EST and announce it on Monday. Be sure to leave me your email address in the comments if you are a no-reply blogger; otherwise I will have to draw again. ephdra (at) gmail (dot) com is a good format.

Cracking the Code on Curiosity
From GreatSchools
By Hank Pellissier
One father dives into curiosity research to help spark his daughter's passion for distant sciences — and finds a link to intelligence development.
"I have to write a stupid outer space story in class next Tuesday," says my 11-year-old daughter. "I hate astronomy. It's so boring."
"Boring?" I say. "You don't see the universe as … amazing?"
"Too far away," she grumbles. "And I just don't care." She trudges to her room to examine the assignment's three reference papers.
My daughter — let's call her Hailey — is cheerfully giddy 99 percent of the time. But her consternation about a cosmic assignment worries me. I'm one of those science nerds who fantasizes about space travel. I speculate about life on Ganymede, Jupiter's largest moon, and, of course, colonizing Mars. Potentially habitable exoplanets. I am very curious about them — why isn't Hailey
But then, she's fascinated by soccer, a passion I find confounding at best.
I wish I could transform my daughter's interest in astronomy from a tiny dead speck like 2013 RZ53, into a hypergiant star like UY Scuti.
What is curiosity, anyway? This childlike state is essential to human consciousness; one 2007 study found that preschool children ask an average of 107 questions per hour. Yet it remains a conceptual curiosity.
Child development guru Jean Piaget defined curiosity as "the urge to explain the unexpected."
Curiosity researcher Daniel Berlyne characterized it as "an optimum amount of novelty, surprisingness, complexity, change, or variety."
Research psychologist Susan Engel suggested curiosity "can be understood as the human need to resolve uncertainty."
Despite so many definitions, curiosity still seems to dance at the edge of understanding. It may be as old as humankind, but only in very recent years have neuroscientists attempted to understand exactly how it works.
Meandering through the vaults of pubmed.gov in search of studies that would help me crack the code on my daughter's curiosity, I learn that inquisitiveness is highly predictive of intelligence. A 2002 study that identified "high stimulation seeking" (meaning highly curious) 3-year-olds found that at age 11, they had higher academic grades, superior reading ability, and IQ scores 12 points higher than their less inquisitive peers.
Curiosity also helps us maintain our intelligence — by protecting against mental decline. A study of older Minnesotans published in JAMA Neurology, found that keeping curiosity alive reduces Alzheimer's risk and delays its onset by 8.7 years.
I also learned that curiosity has a powerful emotional component. It works on our pleasure center: the dopamine rush delivered by curiosity resembles the rush obtained when we win at the racetrack, inhale nicotine, or gobble chocolate. But the curiosity habit is more fragile than, say, a nicotine addiction.
In her recent book The Hungry Mind, Susan Engle chronicles how children begin losing curiosity at a relatively young age: "When they're between the ages of 5 and 12, their curiosity diminishes." Why? Engel suggests that childhood curiosity diminishes because of lack of listening support from adults.
Kathy Koch, author of How Am I Smart? A Parent's Guide to Multiple Intelligence, echoes this view:
"Too many children tell me they stop asking questions because parents and teachers respond too often with statements like these: 'You don't need to know that.' 'Look it up yourself.' 'That's not important.' … Not allowing children to ask questions and not taking their questions seriously are easy ways we shut down the logic-smart intelligence."
Engel also notes that the decline of curiosity coincides with schooling. "[Curiosity] that is ubiquitous in toddlers is hard to find at all in elementary school," she says.
A recent breakthrough in curiosity research piques my interest. At the Dynamic Memory Lab at the University of California at Davis, Psychologist Matthias Gruber studies how the brain files long-term memories of events.
His recent study with researchers Bernar Gelman and Charan Ranganath — published in Neuron — found that curiosity changes the brain in ways that enhance learning. The study tested the memory of participants on a series of topics that they had rated in regards to their curiosity. Participants also underwent MRIs during parts of the study.
Basically, when the brain's curiosity was triggered, thereby releasing dopamine, the person later could remember "incidental information." In other words, participants didn't just remember more about the topics they were curious about, but they remembered more information about unrelated topics when their brain had recently experienced a spike in curiosity.
The research has convinced me that curiosity is the magic spark I need to ignite in my weary little girl, but how?
Hailey is oddly radiant Tuesday, like the star Canopus in the southern hemisphere. Today she has to write the dreaded "stupid outer space story," so I thought she'd be miserable, but she dashes off smiling before I can question her.
With Matthias Gruber working only 75 minutes from my home, I meet with him at a Starbucks in Davis, CA, to chat about his research. His Ph.D. was on long-term memory encoding; his determination to comprehend the neurology of memory led him to his present investigation of curiosity.
"We looked at the neuro-correlates of curiosity … and we found that dopamine, the 'wanting system,' is only active when you're in the curious state," Gruber explained.
Research suggests that dopamine should now be more associated with our need to discover things, of wanting to know more, than making us feel pleasure. It keeps us motivated. Dopamine drives our goal-directed behavior. It causes us to want, desire, seek out, and search. It may have kept cavemen alive.
When asked if dopamine and curiosity have implications for education, Gruber says he assumes that good teachers are already doing it instinctively. "If they turn on the 'wanting system' in their classrooms, the hippocampus works better," he explains, referring the part of the brain associated with long-term memory storage.
"If teachers find a way to inspire each student by telling them something every student wants to know, they will all remember the incidental information. Once the 'wanting system' is turned on, it remembers everything."
I find myself explaining that I was an odd student who got either an A+ or a C- because I was either wildly interested in the subject, or paralytically bored. "How would you teach math so that it's not boring?" I ask. "That was one of my C- subjects."
"Have the students solve complicated, world real-life problems," he suggests.
When asked what sparked his curiosity about psychology, he smiles.
"I had an excellent professor who taught memory," he recalls. "Dr. Karl-Heinz Baeuml at University of Regensburg. He sparked my curiosity and warmed up my hippocampus. Learning should be a 'flow experience.' "
"My daughter doesn't like astronomy," I blurt out, suddenly. "She says 'outer space is too big.' What's wrong with her?"
Matthias doesn't hesitate. "Her teacher," he suggests, "needs to find a little detail in astronomy that fascinates her, something to spark her. Once she catches fire, she will love the subject."
Driving home, I wonder about what made me love astronomy. What sparked my interest? Then I flash on a memory: Gazing at the stars after eating s'mores at Boy Scout campouts in the Sierras and listening to a golden-tongued counselor point out Orion's Belt.
Arriving home, I discover that Hailey is glowing, like Venus in early summer. "How did you like writing the astronomy paper?" I ask.
"Great!" she enthuses. "You know what comets are?"
I open my mouth, but she launches into a breathless, extemporaneous lecture.
"Comets are giant snowballs full of rocks, when they get too close to the sun the snow melts so if the pebbles smash into our atmosphere they burn up as shooting stars, but there are other ways to make space pebbles too, space is full of pebbles, if asteroids hit each other little chips fly off and asteroids do hit each other all the time because they're spinning around the sun in different circles at different speeds and the real name for shooting stars is meteors, but if they don't burn up and land on Earth, they're called meteorites and the biggest one weighs 60 tons and it's made of 84 percent iron and 16 percent nickel!"
On and on she yammers, her brain swirling with wonder like a galaxy, expelling words excitedly like a solar plume, snagging my attention in her gravitational orbit. Obviously her "wanting system" had been turned on.
We went outside and looked at the waxing crescent of the moon.
"What changed?" I ask Hailey. "Astronomy bored you."
"Astronomy seemed impossible," she confesses. "The speed of light? Billions of stars? The temperature of the sun? I don't get it. Too big. But if a comet is just a flying snowball, I like that. That makes sense. Can we see a meteorite someday soon?"
"There's a great collection at UCLA," I tell her. "In Los Angeles, where your uncle lives. Hundreds of them!"
"Can we go see them, pleeese?"
I quietly thank those on-point reference articles from her teacher for charting a pathway from my daughter's fifth grade brain into the cosmos. With her curiosity awakened her learning spree will take off like a rocket.

Let's be honest, moving house is stressful – from de-cluttering your attic and managing your removals, through to the unpacked boxes piled up in your kitchen.
But one area that doesn't need to be stressful is your conveyancing. In this article, we walk through four steps to keeping your conveyancing simple and stress-free.
Your conveyancing solicitor will be handling all aspects of your property transaction, so it's important to find someone you trust.
Price is often a key factor, but don't confuse 'low cost conveyancing' with 'value for money'. The cheapest solicitor is unlikely to the most efficient whilst high prices don't necessarily equate to top quality.
Ask for recommendations from friends, family and even your estate agent. And look for a solicitor that quotes for all charges up-front – including stamp duty, searches and VAT. That way you'll know exactly how much you'll need to pay from the start, without any nasty surprises.
If your conveyancing solicitor needs further information from you, make sure it's readily available. At the very least you'll need to provide the estate agents' details, information about the property and your ID, such as a passport and utility bill.
Some mortgage offers expire after six months, so make sure yours is valid and up-to-date. It's also important that you have your deposit ready, or be in a position to release the funds ready for when your solicitor needs them.
Most people underestimate the amount of work required and how long it'll take. Certain transactions – such as those involving leasehold properties – can take longer, whilst a delay to searches, problems in the chain or even one party going on holiday can add days or even weeks to the process.
"How long will this take?" – it's a commonly-asked question. But be patient and rest assured that your solicitor is working to get you into your new home as quickly as possible.
We understand that the process is frustrating, especially when new information or potential problems come to light. The important thing is to stay calm and remember that hiccups are normal.
Conveyancing hold-ups are the most common reason for delays, which is why it's so important to choose the right solicitor. One that communicates regularly and focuses on solutions will be your ally and can help make the situation as stress free as possible.

Researchers create first 3D print of human cornea in U.S.
Byron Dobson, Tallahassee Democrat (6/10/19)
Research led by Florida A&M University Pharmaceutics Professor Mandip Sachdeva has resulted in the creation of the first high throughput printing of human cells in a 3D print of the cornea in the U.S.
Florida A&M University Professor of Pharmacy Mandip Sachdeva, center, has worked with his students Paul Dinh, left, an undergraduate studying biology and Shallu Kutlehria, a PhD student studying pharmaceutics, to create the first 3D printed human cornea in the United States. The cornea is made using the Cellink Bio X bio printing machine. (Photo courtesy Tori Schneider/Tallahassee Democrat)
The scientific breakthrough — created in two research laboratories in the Dyson Pharmacy Building on campus — could lead to far-reaching advancements in the medical field, from transplants to testing of new cornea-relief products to cornea wound treatment.
Sachdeva, along with Shallu Kutlehria, a graduate assistant in the College of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences, and research assistant Paul Dinh, are completing a white paper to be submitted later this month for journal publication.
The cornea advancement is an outgrowth of research Sachdeva has been engaged in with the help of a grant in 2017 from the National Science Foundation to Florida A&M and the FAMU-FSU College of Engineering.
The grant was awarded to Sachdeva and two FAMU-FSU College of Engineering professors to assist in advanced research in applications for bio printing, aerospace materials and energy.
The Centers of Research Excellence in Science and Technology grant is distributed over five years.
The focus for Sachdeva — who has taught at FAMU for 26 years and been awarded $25 million in research funding over the years — was in developing materials/devices for biological applications, such as a 3D-printed tumor bio system on a chip.
"I was also doing ocular research," Sachdeva said from his Dyson office. He was aware that scientists at Newcastle University in the U.K. were the first last year with a paper printed in journals on their 3D print of human corneas.
"Essentially, the idea was, 'Can we do something better than this? Can we simulate the human eye, and put a cornea with cells in it? '"
Making progress
The effort started about a year and a half ago.
In the area of cornea research, his team is printing a cornea which contains the stromal keratocytes in a collagen matrix, which is the case in real cornea.
Though one application could be cornea transplant, other applications include developing an in-vitro diffusion model to ascertain the permeation of drugs and formulations for screening in research.
The team also is developing a blinking eye model, which will be a further improvement in the in vitro model. A prototype has been created.
Sachdeva led a visitor to a basement lab where a replica of a human eye is displayed.

"This eye can move up and down like a human eye does," he said, showing where the cornea, about the size of a contact lens, will be placed on the outer circle.
"We have simulated the human eye," he said.
The model using the 3D cornea print could lead to reducing the dependency on animal testing for products of the cornea, such as drops, gels and ointments emerging for market.
"There is no good system to screen them," he said of emerging products. "We simulate the human system. The cornea will have several of the cells lined up and you can study how much drug is going through and what's happening in a much more efficient manner and minimize animal testing."
A long-term goal is to use the 3D printing for corneal transplants, he said.
"But that will take long-term studies," he said. "We could make a cornea to order. That's the benefit of the 3D model. The whole crux of 3D printing, you can make it a personalized approach to medicine."
Path to innovation
The first challenge was envisioning how to come up with the cornea.
"The starting point was, we have to have print the cornea," Sachdeva said. "A lot of things went into it. When you print the cornea, the bio-ink is very important. You have to formulate a bio-ink to use for the cornea that simulates the human characteristics.
"We had to use human cornea stromal cells."
Sachdeva said the work done at FAMU differs from the U.K. study.
"They printed one cornea. One of my team members (Dinh) said it takes so much time, if you want to print six corneas, or 12 corneas, how do we do that? My team developed a high throughput printing system where in about 10 minutes, you can print about six corneas."
Technically speaking, the FAMU team has accomplished the first high throughput cornea printing breakthrough in the U.S., Sachdeva said.
"High throughput cornea printing means that we can print multiple corneas in a matter of minutes using a specially designed scaffold by our laboratory," he said. "This will save time, and hence, will increase efficiency."
He compared it to other automation process in other industries like punching multiple tablets in pharmaceutical manufacturing repeatedly of the same formulation.
The bio-ink which the team made "simulates the human eye more accurately for the collagen concentration than the U.K. model.
"We are also better characterizing our bio-ink for its flow properties so as to help future scientists when they want to print their corneas."
Brainpower and a vision
Sachdeva is quick to credit to his team of Kutlehria, who works with optimization, characterization of bio ink along with evaluating cell growth, behavior and interactions within the printed structures, and Dinh, who focuses on the technology involved in advancing the print process.
Both say their goal is being part of a science breakthrough that will directly benefit the public.
"Knowledge of drugs, their actions and discoveries in the medical world always intrigued me since childhood," said Kutlehria, a doctoral candidate in the College of Pharmacy and Pharmaceutical Sciences. "This impetus fueled me to pursue a career in pharmaceutical research. My objective is to better understand the diseases and bring changes that can transform patient's life and they can see this world differently."
FAMU research assistant Dinh said: "The ultimate goal of my research is to alleviate human suffering and I hope that my contributions in developing a 3D bio printed human cornea would help in the ongoing pursuit in curing blindness and eliminating waiting lists for organ donations."
The ongoing work has involved lot of weekends and late nights consuming scientific literature and holding long discussions.
"We have a good printer, but more than that is the innovation part," Sachdeva said. "If you have the right team put together who can solve scientific problems, anything can be achievable in the world.
"It is the human brain that is the driver here," he said. "We can do what Harvard and MIT can do."

General Auto Repair and Auto Body Repair garages can be full of a number of hazards. They are often filled with moving vehicles, expensive equipment, a surplus of employees and potentially dangerous tools. Even the safest garages will occasionally have accidents, and that's why it's essential to make sure that your business is covered.
That's where garage general liability (GGL) coverage comes in. GGL can basically be thought of as a combination of a commercial general liability policy and a business auto policy that's designed to cover the typical operations of commercial garages. However, as with most insurance policies, there are some important distinctions you should understand as you elect your coverage.
Garage operations other than covered autos. This section includes coverage liability for property damage to the garage itself, as well as bodily injury to owners, their employees and their customers.
Operation of autos. This refers to aspects of coverage analogous to many business auto policies. Specifically, a GGL policy will cover vehicles owned by the business, vehicles being held for sale or any other vehicles owned by someone else and being used in business operations. For example, this would include damages incurred if a business's manager is driving a demo vehicle and causes an accident, or if the company's parts driver gets in an accident while making a delivery.
Garagekeepers. If a customer's car is damaged while in your company's care, or if it causes damage while in your company's care, your GGL could leave you exposed. However, a separate coverage commonly sold along with a GGL policy—garagekeepers coverage—is designed specifically to provide coverage for that exposure.

Germany's Corona Warn App: How Effective is the Country's Corona-Battler?
It's been a little under a fortnight since the German government launched its "Corona-Warn" contact tracing app. Thirteen million Germans—16% of the country's population—have downloaded it so far. For an effective fight against COVID-19, Corona-Warn requires around 40m users.
France's own contact tracing system, by comparison, has 2m downloads from a population of 67m, while India's has 131m users – around 10% of its population. The UK's, which Prime Minister Boris Johnson has described as "world-beating," is not yet ready.
The rollout hasn't gone entirely reibungslos (smoothly). Political debate has raged over privacy, in a nation that, thanks to successive eras of repression, treasures freedom from surveillance. The German government's refusal to name a fixed expiration date has vexed some rights groups – though it's unclear when a vaccination for the Coronavirus will be developed.
More recently, the app has bombarded users with an error message that the system "is possibly not supported in this region," a problem the app's developer has blamed on the iOS used by Apple, whose decentralized technology powers the app (France's works on a centrally-held database, which would be near-impossible for Germany to implement).
Corona-Warn has even spawned its own offshoots. A startup from Düsseldorf this week launched an app-specific diary. It could help prevent outbreaks that have sprung up in urban areas like Neukölln, a central Berlin suburb, and Gütershof, a town dominated by the slaughterhouse Tönnies.
The voluntary nature of Corona-Warn, and widespread reluctance by Germans to use privacy-dampening tech (the country is one of the developed world's least active on social media, and vast swathes of its Google Maps are blanked out) may prevent it from reaching its 40m goal.
But with German cases dropping—it registered just 256 cases yesterday compared to Britain's 901—a doubling should ensure the nation faces far fewer issues than it's European neighbors.

A lawsuit has been filed against Google of Alphabet Inc. by the consumer regulator of Australia filed a lawsuit. It alleges that Google deceived users about how it was gathering, hoarding, and utilizing private location information. The ACCC (Australian Competition and Consumer Commission) stated that for nearly 2 Years from Jan 2017, Google has been unsuccessful to inform Android phone users that they required to turn off 2 settings—instead of just 1—if they didn't wish the firm to keep their details.
Rod Sims, the ACCC Chair, said, "We are filing a case against Google as we claim that on account of these on-screen images, Google has gathered, stored, and utilized highly valuable and sensitive private details about the location of users without them making a knowledgeable selection." Recently, the ACCC demanded toughened privacy rules as part of a comprehensive revamp of the laws impacting global tech firms. The Australian government has declared intents to set up the foremost devoted office of world to monitor Google and Facebook Inc as part of modifications intended to control the US tech giants.
The ACCC stated the claims against Google focused on 2 Google Account location settings: Web & App Activity and Location History. The watchdog stated that the search giant didn't make apparent that both settings required to be turned off to prevent the firm from gathering and utilizing information from either. It mentioned that in 2018's second half Google further deceived users by recommending that the only means they could thwart the firm from gathering location data was to discontinue utilizing specific Google services, comprising Google Maps and Google Search.
On the other end, Facebook, following months of appeals, has settled on to reimburse £500,000 to settle resolve allegations that it defied the UK privacy rules by permitting Cambridge Analytica to access the private information of 87 Million users of Facebook.

What is Juvenile Arthritis?
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis (JIA) is a group of diseases that cause arthritis before the age of 16 years. It can cause persistent joint pain, swelling and stiffness. For some children symptoms only last a few months but others have symptoms that last many years.
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis can affect one joint or many. The most common type affects four or fewer joints. There are also polyarticular types that involve more than four joints and a systemic type that is more serious and causes abnormalities such as fever, lymphadenopathy, organ dysfunction, and rash.
Pain, which may or may not include joint pain. Instead of complaining of joint pain children may limp, especially in the morning or after a nap.
Joint swelling is common but especially noticeable in the large joints such as the knee.
Stiffness. Children may seem unsteady or have difficulty when they awake in the morning or after a nap.
Systemic symptoms such as fever, swollen lymph nodes, and rash.
Juvenile idiopathic arthritis is an autoimmune disease in which the body attacks its own cells and tissues. The cause is not known but genetics and the environment are both thought to play a role. The prevalence of the disease is approximately 16-150 per 100,000 children.
Eye inflammation which can result in cataracts, glaucoma, and blindness.
Growth disruption. Bone growth and development can be disrupted by JIA. In addition, corticosteroids, which are used to treat JIA, can also inhibit growth. In advanced cases bones can fuse (ankylose) and disrupt growth.
Permanent joint damage. Some cartilage damage can be repaired in children given the more vascular nature of their growing cartilage and cartilage caps (epiphyses). However, if the cartilage loss becomes greater than the body can repair then permanent cartilage loss ensues, leading to progressive joint space loss and in certain cases joint fusion.
JIA remains a clinical diagnosis with varied manifestations. Clinical exam, blood tests to detect inflammatory change, and imaging all play roles in diagnosing JIA.
Imaging is important to diagnose and monitor the course of the disease. Radiography (x-ray) is often the initial imaging exam but is insensitive for early findings of JIA. However, radiography is necessary because it can exclude other causes of joint pain such as tumors or fractures. It can also detect advanced changes of arthritis such as erosions, joint space loss, and joint effusions. Contrast enhanced MRI is the most sensitive modality to detect early changes of JIA such as inflammation of the lining of joints (synovitis), joint effusions, and bone marrow edema which is a precursor to erosive change. Ultrasound (US) is also more sensitive than radiography for early changes of JIA and can detect synovitis, joint effusions, and tenosynovitis (inflammation of the tendon sheath). Both MRI and US can used to monitor treatment response and progression of JIA.
Treatment of JIA focuses on anti-inflammatory medications which range from common over the counter nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDS) to powerful biologic agents which suppress the immune system. These medications help decrease pain, improve function, and minimize joint damage.
Although JIA remains a clinical diagnosis, imaging is key in excluding other causes of joint pain and swelling, aids in diagnosis, monitors disease progression and treatment response, and evaluates for complications of JIA. Given the new powerful therapeutics the goal of JIA treatment is suppression of joint inflammation before the development of irreversible cartilage loss.

How is life treating you, my lovely people? Today I'm back with another fashion illustration post. Recently, I went exploring my art collection because I wanted to gift some of my art to a friend of mine. As much as I love art, I must admit I quickly became quite bewildered and overwhelmed in the process. I do my best to organize my art, but somehow my efforts don't seem bring in results. I have so much drawings, paintings and illustrations- in all possible mediums. Different mediums need to be stored differently and at times it seems too difficult a task for one person. I'm not exactly an expert on storing art. I know how to make art, but how to take care of it is a whole another skill. Sometimes I don't manage to storage my art properly and it ends up getting destroyed.

Remember last week when Kyle raved about Russian Circles and was going to make us review it this week? Well, that doesn't happen. Why? Well, mostly because Carmen Sandiego Kyle is missing again and your two hosts with perfect attendance didn't think it made sense to discuss the album without out him. So, we just do our usual thing, reviewing new releases. And what a smorgasbord of releases we have this week. On one end of the heavy spectrum, we have new Sevendust…a band Nick and Brian have been watching/following since before high school, back in Nu-Metal's heyday. On the other end, we have Nails' latest album, which, as you will hear, just kinda destroys everything it touches (so to speak) and probably shouldn't even be mentioned to most Sevendust fans. In the middle (quite literally, actually) we have a brand new Still Remains single that we are very excited to play for you. So, it's diverse, which we like…and if you don't, there is always the chapter skips. You're welcome.
Yeah, I was really surprised that it cost that much for the digital version! Should be less….but, I promise, if you liked that one song – it's worth your money.
I kinda agree with you on Meir. I think I just need to divorce myself from the first one a little more and give this one a few more listens. As I mentioned in the beginning of my review, I really think if we had more than a few days with it before our review I would have been a bit more favorable. Also, I totally expected Brian to give it a four at least, so I figured it would average out to a 3.5. Apparently, he likes to keep me on my toes!
I agree though…I needed to be more separated. The band did grow some, and is growing, but it was not really to a place I wanted them to go. I don't think it's a bad album by any means, and it is catchy, but it did not leave an an impression on me like the first one did.
I am guessing that you may have recorded this episode mid-week last week so I would probably think that if I had only listened to Meir for 2 days I might not have known what to make of it yet. On the one hand, I realize that you want to stay current with new releases in your reviews, but on the other hand no one is making you review an album mere days after it is released. In some cases I'm sure the music benefits from further listening. Hell, I still haven't figured out if that Intronaut album is any good yet because it is so long and complex. Nails, on the other hand, took one listen to know that this is good stuff!
Oh, and BTW it kind of stinks that despite Abandon All Life by Nails being only 15 minutes long Amazon still charges $9.49 for it. That's like $1.50 per minute.
We actually had the Kvelertak album since the Friday before. But, either way, you're right that we could spend more time with these albums. However, unless we switch to a bi-weekly show, it's not gonna help too much to sit on them.
Also, if I have to listen to an album for weeks to decide if I like it, then I know I am making myself like it. Intronaut is long and complex, and it may take weeks to hear everything. But if I can't decide on an album after a few spins, I am either impartial or am making myself try to like it. That's not to say my opinion won't change (as we have seen before) but there has to be some sort of more immediate reaction to the music.
So in one week you reviewed two albums produced by Kurt Ballou?
The new Kvelertak is one of the rare instances that I have actually listened to the album before hearing your review of it. I have to disagree with you guys on this one. Only a 3? Even from Brian? I think it's better than that. I think that expectations certainly have a lot to do with the reception of any highly anticipated album and Meir is no exception. Their first album came out of nowhere and was a surprise hit. My feeling is that if Meir had been their first album it would still be a surprise hit. Does Meir lack some of the intensity and energy of their debut? Just slightly, but not enough to take away from the sense of fun that the band brings to the music. To me it also shows growth as indicated by the longer drawn out instrumental passages at the end of the songs on the second half of the album, which I like. And then that last song, Kvelertak, has the potential to be their signature song not just because of the name but because it is so damn catchy. It sounds like the best AC/DC song in the last 20 years. But because of those longer songs, I'll grant you that they could have cut a couple of songs from the middle of the album and Meir would be no worse for it, but that's not really a big deal in my opinion. Overall Meir is one of the top releases of the year so far even if that isn't saying much because I haven't been impressed by much yet this year.
I think Guitar World magazine needs to do a feature on Nails so they can ask Nails what kind of gear they use. That guitar tone is crushingly heavy!

O Forte Gadsden está localizado no estado norte-americano da Flórida, no condado de Franklin. Situa-se no Rio Apalachicola, próximo de Sumatra. No passado recebeu outras denominações como Forte Prospect Bluff, Forte Nichols, Correio Britânico, Forte Negro, Forte Africano e Forte Apalachicola.

O forte foi designado, em 23 de fevereiro de 1972, um local do Registro Nacional de Lugares Históricos bem como, em 15 de maio de 1975, um Marco Histórico Nacional.

Origem
Durante a Guerra anglo-americana de 1812, em agosto de 1814, uma força de mais de 100 oficiais e homens liderados por Edward Nicolls, um tenente-coronel dos fuzileiros navais britânicos, foi enviado para o Rio Apalachicola, no oeste da Flórida, que, na época, era parte do Império Espanhol, com o objetivo de recrutar índios Seminoles como aliados em sua guerra contra os Estados Unidos, onde começaram a ajuda e treinar os índios locais.

 Nicolls construiu uma fortaleza em Prospect Bluff, 25 Km acima da foz do  Apalachicola a 96 Km da fronteira com os Estados Unidos, que foi equipada com canhões, armas e munições.

O forte foi originalmente conhecido como Correio Britânico, e serviu de base para as tropas britânicas e para o recrutamento de escravos fugitivos para o novo Corpo Colonial de Fuzileiros Navais, que era uma formação auxiliar aos  Fuzileiros Navais Britânicos, e para incentivar os Seminoles a atacar os Estados Unidos

Quando os britânicos evacuaram a Flórida na primavera de 1815, eles deixaram o forte bem-construído e armado nas mãos de cerca de 300 escravos fugitivos, incluindo membros do dissolvido Corpo Colonial de Fuzileiros Navais, e cerca de 30 índios Seminoles e Choctaw.  Nicolls dissera aos índios que o Tratado que encerrou a Guerra anglo-americana de 1812 havia garantido a devolução de todas as terras indígenas perdidas durante a guerra, incluindo as terras Creek na Geórgia e Alabama

A notícia do "Forte Negro" (como veio a ser chamado) atraiu cerca de 800 negros fugitivos que se estabeleceram na área vizinha.

Sob o comando de um homem negro chamado Garson e um chefe Choctaw (cujo nome é desconhecido), foram lançados ataques através da fronteira com a  Geórgia, nos quais eram libertados escravos, e por isso o Forte Negro foi visto como uma ameaça à escravidão.

Ataque ao Forte Negro
Em julho de 1816 Andrew Jackson deu ordens ao Brigadeiro-General Edmund P. Gaines para destruir o Fort Negro. A expedição americana incluía índios Creek de Coweta. Em 27 de julho de 1816, após uma série de escaramuças, as forças americanas e seus aliados Creek lançaram um ataque, sob o comando do Tenente-Coronel Duncan Clinch, com o apoio de um comboio naval comandada por Jarius Loomis.

Os dois lados trocaram tiros de canhão, mas os tiros dos artilheiros inexperientes do Forte Negro não conseguiam atingir os seus objetivos. O depósito de pólvora do Forte Negro foi atingido, gerando uma explosão que foi ouvida a mais de 160 km de distância, e destruiu a fortaleza. Das cerca de 320 pessoas que estavam no forte, mais de 250 morreram instantaneamente, e muitos outros morreram em consequência dos ferimentos pouco depois.

Garson e o chefe Choctaw, estavam entre os poucos sobreviventes, e foram entregues aos  Creeks, que escalpelaram o Choctaw vivo e, em seguida, esfaquearam Garson. Outros sobreviventes foram devolvidos à escravidão.

Os  Creeks ficaram com as armas (2,500 mosquetes, 50 carabinas, 400 pistolas e 500 espadas) dos derrotados como recompensa.

O Império Espanhol protestou contra a  violação de seu solo.

No início da Primeira Guerra Seminole quando as tropas de Andrew Jackson chegaram ao local onde ficava o ""Forte Negro"", foi designado o oficial James Gadsden para dirigir a construção de um novo forte, que seria designado como Forte Gadsden.
