Q: Make part of a matplotlib title bold and a different color I would like to change part of a title to be bold. For example:
plt.title("This is title number: " + str(number))

Given a title like the above, how would I bold the str(number) part.

A: From matplotlib version 2 on,
there is no need to use latex (which would require a working latex installation).   One can use normal MathText to render part of the title in bold.
import matplotlib.pyplot as plt
number = 2017
plt.title("This is title number: " + r"$\bf{" + str(number) + "}$")
plt.show()

A: activate latex text rendering
from matplotlib import rc
rc('text', usetex=True)

plt.title("This is title number: " + r"\textbf{" + str(number) + "}")

A: This post should answer your question on manipulating the title. You can use latex text rendering and call textbf for that particular part of the string.

Артем Вікторович Красильников; 16 січня 1984, Жданов (нині — Маріуполь), Українська РСР, СРСР— український футболіст, воротар. В даний момент - тренер воротарів в клубі Авангард (Краматорськ).

Кар'єра

«Азовсталь» (Маріуполь)

Футболом почав займатися з 10 років. Спочатку грав на позиції захисника, але все змінилося після травми коліна. За порадою тренера став у ворота і далі виступав на цій позиції аж до закінчення кар'єри. Першою командою Артема Вікторовича стала місцева "Азовсталь", а першими тренерами - Олександр Балабанов та Олексій Якушевський. На юнацькому рівні подавав великі надії. Яскраве тому підтвердження - участь в змаганнях під егідою ДЮФЛУ (Дитячо-юнацькій футбольній лізі України) вже в 1997 році за команду, яка була складена з футболістів на рік старше ( "Азовсталь-83". Тренер - Олександр Сергійович Панфілов). За цей колектив Артем Красильников відіграв аж до 1999 року. Випускний рік провів у складі маріупольського «Спортінтернат-1». Після того, як в складі цієї команди Артем Вікторович став переможцем «Кубка Ядрана» (міжнародний юнацький турнір, який щорічно проходить в Хорватії на узбережжі Адріатичного моря), з ним п'ятирічний контракт вирішив підписати «Металург» (Маріуполь) - професійний клуб, який нині має назву ФК Маріуполь.

«Металург-2» (Маріуполь)

Всупереч такому повороту долі талановитого юнака (наприклад, його ігрові якості відзначав Ігор Шуховцев, який в ті часи був основним воротарем головної команди «Металурга», і з яким Артем Вікторович і понині підтримує дружні стосунки), Красильников повністю розкрити свій ігровий потенціал не зумів: посилилася вже знайома травма коліна. У 2010-му році ця проблема шляхом видалення меніска була частково вирішена. На професійному рівні Артем Вікторович провів всього три матчі. Всі вони відбулися в рамках Другої ліги України в складі «Металурга-2»: 16.06.2001 в Харкові місцевий «Арсенал» переміг з рахунком 2:1; 24.06.2001 в Маріуполі в матчі проти луганської «Зорі» була зафіксована нічия 0:0; 22.07.2001 в Ромнах команда з Донецької області з рахунком 0:5 поступилася «Електрону». Ці зустрічі Артем Красильников провів від «дзвінка до дзвінка».

«Іллічівка» (Маріуполь)

По закінченню контракту з «Металургом» (на той час який вже мав назву «Іллічівець»), Артем Вікторович далі виступав на любительському рівні за різні маріупольські команди. Однак основним видом діяльності в ці роки для нього є освіта: з одного боку це викладання в музичній школі (загальний педагогічний стаж - 10 років), а з іншого - навчання в ПДТУ. В «великий» футбол Артем Красильников повернувся у 2008-му році, погодившись стати тренером воротарів в жіночій команді «Іллічівка», яка у Чемпіонаті України серйозно намірилася кинути виклик чернігівської «Легенді» та харківському «Житлобуд-1» - грандам всеукраїнського масштабу. Ті часи Красильников згадує досить-таки тепло: «Спочатку було незвично, адже дівчата - істоти ніжні - не накричиш, не полаєшся. Але потім звик з тим, що це футболістки і вони повинні виконувати свою роботу, а тренер повинен бути вимогливим і коректним. Мені це подобалося. Зі мною працювали дівчата-воротарі з Молдавії та Румунії. Остання не говорила російською мовою і ми з нею спілкувалися англійською! З багатьма підтримую хороші дружні відносини. Деякі грають і зараз в молодіжних і національних збірних своїх країн». У «Іллічівці» Артем Красильников пропрацював аж до 2010-го року, двічі завоювавши разом з командою бронзові медалі Чемпіонату України серед команд Вищої ліги. У кінці 2009-го протягом декількох матчів був виконуваючим обов`язків головного тренера "Иллічівки".

«Іллічівець» (Маріуполь)

У тому ж 2010-му році Артем Красильников залишає «Іллічівку» (яка почала відчувати фінансові труднощі), та переходить на роботу тренера по воротарях в дитячо-юнацьку школу «Іллічівець». «Праця з дітьми мені сподобалася. Розгледіти в дитині майбутнього воротаря і виховати з нього хорошого голкіпера цікаво. Зараз у воротарів дивляться на антропометричні дані. В Україні низькорослих воротарів не цінують. У всій Європі зараз приділяють увагу високорослим голкіперам і бажано, щоб воротар був ігровиком. Зараз йде така тенденція, що воротар повинен грати ногами. Ось у Пятова це добре виходить. Вся оборона повинна будуватися через голкіпера. Я намагаюся дуже багато часу приділяти роботі ніг, що цінується в Європі. Я часто бував в Німеччині, де у мене живуть родичі (завдяки їм, до речі, в приватній колекції Артема є ігрова футболка Олівера Кана). Якось мені пощастило в Мюнхені відвідати матч «Баварії» з «Барселоною». Це був Кубок імені Улі Генесса. Це була класна гра, на стадіоні панувала прекрасна атмосфера. Люди, і вболівальники зокрема, в Німеччині дуже доброзичливі. І я багато для себе виніс з тієї гри в плані роботи в рамці воротарів.» - згадує Артем... У 2012-му році Артем Красильников, після проходження відповідних курсів, став володарем тренерської ліцензії UEFA категорії «В». Артем Красильников один з тих, хто побічно допомагав у становленні футбольної кар'єри Миколи Шапаренко, нині гравця національної збірної України  та київського «Динамо».

«Авангард» (Краматорськ)

У липні 2015-го став тренером воротарів в клубі "Авангард" із  Краматорська, який знову почав виступати в Першій лізі України. У цьому клубі Артем Вікторович працює і зараз. З головних особистих досягнень - «виховання» Артура Денчука: колишній воротар «дубля» харківського «Металіста» (у складі головної команди так і не зіграв жодної хвилини) приїхав до Краматорська в статусі «вічно перспективного футболіста», на якому футбольні фахівці вже було поставили хрест (зокрема, він так і не зміг довести свою профпридатність ні в харківському «Геліосі», ні в більш скромному ПФК «Суми»). Однак потрапивши в «Авангард», Денчук розкрив свій потенціал і зміг стати одним з кращих воротарів Першої Ліги сезону 2016/17. Цікаво, що у попередньому сезоні в «Авангарді» подібним чином «воскрес» Владислав Леонідов - ще один воротар з Першої Столиці, який, свого часу, як і Денчук, також ходив в числі «перспективних» в «Металісті». У Краматорськ Леонідов приїхав не маючи нормальної ігрової практики ось уже протягом останніх семи років. Тим не менш, це не завадило йому за підсумками другої частини того чемпіонату стати одним з кращих воротарів Першої ліги. І це за підсумками всього 10 ігор, в момент, коли «Авангард» боровся за право залишитися у Першій лізі! Їхав з Донецької області Влад із тріумфом: над трансфером в амбітний «Верес» "попрацював" не тільки тренерський штаб з Рівного, а й особисто Олександр Заваров, який в той час входив в тренерський штаб національної збірної України. У грудні 2018-го Артем Красильников, після проходження відповідних курсів, став володарем тренерської ліцензії UEFA категорії «А».

Захоплення

Головним хобі Артема Красильникова є музика. 10 років педагогічного стажу в музичній маріупольській школі (відділення - труба; викладач - Микола Сергійович Переверзєв; При цьому, Артем Вікторович два роки сам безпосередньо був викладачем у співака Олександра Кривошапка), дозволяють йому впевнено почувати себе перед публікою в складі різних груп. На музичному ґрунті має дружні стосункі з Михайлом Бубликом (популярний естрадний співак; серед досягнень - друге місце в проекті «Алла шукає таланти» Алли Пугачової) з яким разом грав в маріупольській групі «Booblik'sBand» та Євгеном Костіцем (барабанщик бенда Джамали), з яким разом навчався в музичному училищі.

Особисте життя

В даний момент неодружений. Раніше був одружений протягом семи років. Дітей немає. Має дві освіти: вища - ПДТУ (з 2002-го по 2008-ий рік; спеціалізація - менеджер організацій) та середньо-спеціальну у вигляді маріупольського державного музичного училища (з 1998-го по 2002-ий рік). Вільно володіє англійською мовою.

A beautiful, sentimental story written by Christine and Christopher Kezelos. If you enjoy fantasy and whimsical storytelling, this book is for you.
I absolutely loved how the authors wove spiritual wisdom into the book's pages in a subtle yet striking way. The story is a must read for anyone looking to develop more meaning and intention in their lives.
I highly recommend this book to adolescents and adults alike. The Magnum Opus would make a wonderful gift for anyone interested in fantasy or fiction.
"A child with a knack for solving problems helps some hungry fish and finds a treasure. Illustrated folk tale teaches the value of work and comes with ideas for businesses; money-making activities; and online resources ."
This is a cute and nicely illustrated story about earning a living. A boy goes on an adventure and learns how to earn money while he is helping a stranger. This story speaks of being creative when it comes to living life-which is always a good idea!
The illustrations are well done and the story is easy for young children to understand. This would be a good gift for a child for any occasion. Plus the book conveys useful information for children in how to be a success in life.
Paintings is a collection of poems and images I put together to portray a particular period of time. In my early thirties I became focused on two questions, "Who am I, and how do I want to proceed through life."
This project reflects that early contemplation. Compiling this work was liberating yet also confusing because revelations and knowledge, mistakes and ignorance converged all at once. At times, it was difficult to discern which direction I was moving in, but I've come to know there is great treasure everywhere, from the terrible to the terrific.
It has taken me 55 years to fully understand I will never reach a quiet precipice while on this planet. I have learned through my own experiences how important it is to know myself so I can nurture and continue to shape that truth from within. I'm so grateful a train of thought was ushered in to provide a place for me to return to in order to remain faithful and fruitful during hard times, but by no means, has this information permitted me to rest.
Everyday, I must decide all over again to be kind, thoughtful, and tolerant of others while forgiving myself as I repeatedly fail at this very exercise.
In short, these writings are about my desire to be better and to reach higher for the balance between body, mind, and spirit.
Paintings consists of 38 poems with 38 accompanying images. Each writing has a reflection of its own. Some relate to moments of great joy, yet others reveal a forlorn sadness while searching for the right path ahead. A few of the poems simply express the beauty of nature that surrounds us.
These are some of my life's paintings, I hope you enjoy them.
This is a heartfelt book of poetry written about the meaning of life and insights it presents to us in the concept of life lessons. The author did a wonderful job speaking of the things she has pondered upon during her journey here thus far.
If you are looking for a book that will inspire and uplift, this is a great one to invest in! It would make an excellent gift for a friend or loved one. A perfect addition to a morning cup of coffee or tea!
It paints a beautiful picture in words and art just as the title suggests!
1. Please tell me about your book and why you decided to write it.
"Paintings" is a collection of poems I wrote many years ago. In 2012 I decided to put images alongside these short tales in order to produce a book. The poems cover a wide range of experiences that include success, failure, wonder and despair.
In my 30s I began to experience for the first time, prolonged moments of genuine happiness. It was through that first glimmer of light a profound sense of joy began to make a permanent home within me. So I would have to say, because of my own experience with inspiration, I was compelled to write about my life lessons.
I have come to respect how very different we all are, and it's because of our unique backgrounds, experiences and individual decisions that we journey through life beside each other, yet separately. However, it's through our emotions that we connect deeply with one another to diminish the space between us. It's within that shared place I want to contribute something.
2. What do you hope to accomplish as an author?
I'd like to be helpful through my words.
3. What would you like your readers to know about you?
I used to think I wanted to be identified as a good writer and receive a pat on the back for my skill in bringing an idea forward.
Yet because I've chosen to write about emotional subjects, I now know the real value comes from allowing others to privately recognize something universal about themselves which leaves me, the writer behind.
It is here I would say the struggle, has at times, been strongest because it's taken much contemplation to understand a feeling of pride won't sustain me. Within the process of creating and sharing, I continue to be shown if I successfully leave my ego out of the work then I'm fed with joy, and a sense of connection fills my spirit.
4. Do you have any works in progress? What are they?
Yes. I have many files of writings that I intend to format into future collections. These more recent "papers" as I like to call them, have taken a departure from the poetry genre to assume a more direct voice.
As with the poems in Paintings, these works are central to an experience, decision, or train of thought connected to my emotional base.
I'm also working on my autobiography. I have been lucky enough to live an unusually diversified life, and I believe there is good treasure to be shared by way of the many peaks and valleys I've come through.
5. If you could have one wish granted, what would it be?
I want to fulfill my purpose in life. I believe that my writing figures into this concept very strongly, but it's not enough to simply write about subjects that range from sadness and pain to forgiveness, kindness and tolerance. I have to blend with a higher standard through my daily practices.
If I can tip my inner proclivities in favor of words of light and minimize the hold that anger, fear and confusion have over me, then I've done well.
6. Do you have any other creative outlets? If so, what are they?
Yes, I have many! I enjoy rendering digital art, photography, home design and making jewelry boxes.
I particularly enjoy the simple aspects of taking care of the home I share with my partner, Ben. I find much pleasure in adding a special touch to our private world, whether it's by applying a faux finish to the living room walls or simply cleaning the kitchen. I try to be mindful with every task I take on because that's where the joy is.
Bravo, Elphie's new pet, is stuck on top of the red slide. Elphie never climbs the red slide. It's so high, its goes all the way into the sky. But now he needs to embrace himself and gather up his courage to rescue Bravo. Good thing he never leaves the house without his cape! Join Elphie and Bravo on this colorful bittersweet adventure.
This is a cute picture book about a young elephant and his pet rat going on an adventure in the park. The pet rat is a little braver than Elphie and climbs to the top of the slide. But when he is too afraid to slide down, Elphie has to conquer his fear of heights and go get his pet Bravo. They end up sliding down together and Elphie is amazed at how easy it was.
The moral of this book is a good one: don't be afraid to address your fears! A wonderful concept for young children to grasp which is easily conveyed in this story line.
This is a fun book that kids would enjoy, complete with cute, colorful pictures to add to the experience!
Magic awakens in Early America. The Red Wraith is born. On the eve of the Harvest Ceremony, Naysin, a child of the Lepane nation, manifests powers of a dual deity forever torn in two by light and darkness. Cast into exile by his clan for being a spawn of human and spirit, Naysin is lost in a world of change as pale men from the sea arrive to plunder the riches of the Earth. Guided only by the devious facets of his spirit father, Naysin has no choice but to master his powers to survive the destruction of his people.
And so the legend of the Red Wraith begins. For Naysin, it is a path of darkness and death that will take him from one end of the land to the other and down into the depths of infamy. The New World will know him as the indigenous monster who kills in the name of vengeance, but that's not who he wants to be. And when he encounters a group of fellow magic-users, Naysin realizes he may yet have a chance to set everything right.
This book was written about a young Indian man named Naysin who was the offspring of human and spirit. Having been branded and exiled from his people, Naysin was forced to strike out on his own and contend with the dueling powers inside himself as he searched for the meaning of his existence. This was the story of Naysin's awakening to a higher calling and predestined life purpose.
The Red Wraith was a fantasy book with some history woven into it. The writer expounded on the main character's plight and developed the story around his situation. Therefore, it had huge doses of fiction and fantasy...which is a good thing because I love both!
If you are also a fantasy fanatic, this one's definitely for you!
1. Please tell me a little about your book and why you decided to write it.
The Red Wraith is a historical fantasy set in Early America. The protagonist is a Native American who becomes the focus for magic's reentry into the world.
From there, I did some additional research, picked a real-life location for the steep hill (Monk's Mound, a giant earthen pyramid near St. Louis and the impetus for some dumb luck I had when I was on an archaeological dig in college), and started writing.
2. What do you hope to accomplish through the publishing of your story?
Primarily, I hope anyone who reads the book enjoys the time they invested in it. But it'd also be great if some readers found the historical elements interesting enough to investigate on their own.
3. If you could meet one famous person, who would it be and why?
Oh, man—I bet pretty much everyone starts by answering this with "It's hard to pick just one." But let's keep it topical and go with Jacqueline Carey. Her Kushiel's Legacy series is a masterpiece of historical fantasy, and one of the main reasons I got into the genre.
I moonlight (daylight?) as a barn hand. My wife loves horses, so about six years back, we moved to rural Michigan and found a property with 11.5 acres. Now we have four horses and lots of farm chores. They get me away from my desk, though, and completing a manual task gives me a satisfaction I can't get from typing up a digital document.
5. What is your favorite food, color, place, activity?
Sushi, blue, Vancouver, and (assuming I'm not allowed to say writing) playing basketball.
This is a light-hearted and amusing fantasy about a young man who is accidentally transported to an alien world. It is a medieval world and the magician who pulled him from his own was only practicing! Jojo is frightened out of his wits and finds himself in the middle of a needle match between the magician and the King's henchman. As the magician ignores his pleas to reverse the spell and send him back Jojo looks for a way to force the issue. This is out of character for the normally happy-go- lucky Jojo, who usually just drifts through life. He comes up with the idea of making a revolution and dethroning the King. He finds allies to help him and the plan swings into motion. Of course, everything goes wrong from the start.
This is a humorous fantasy story that takes place in a medieval village. The main character from modern day England is transported via a wizard to the medieval dimension for the purpose of collecting information. The wizard ends up keeping the man, named JoJo, in the dimension as a source of amusement. The book follows JoJo's desperate attempt to cause an uproar in the realm thus forcing the wizard to send him home reluctantly.
There are some funny scenes. But the humor is adult; this is not a book for children. There is a lot of slang used from the perspective of English society, but I didn't find it difficult to follow. I did run into a number of typos and spelling errors, but despite that the book was easy to read and understand. The book was written in a sort of monologue of the main character. Everything was described by the main character's perspective with some dialogue peppered into the manuscript as well to add interest. I do wish there had been more dialogue as well as a touch more character development and detail added to parts of the story to make the pace a bit faster.
All in all, if you enjoy fantasy and humor, you would find this story entertaining. It did provide some much enjoyed laughter!
Set against the backdrop of the Jamnagar Helicopter crash on 30 August 2012, where two helicopters of the Indian Air Force had a mid-air collision, this story is a reality fiction, loosely based on the true story of an Air Warrior from the Indian Air Force. Narrated through the silent echo of the sorrowful heart of one the shattered families, their pain is best expressed as silent streams of tears flowing noiselessly down a pair of eyes that have intensely loved and sadly lost. Sometimes, when the heart weeps, there is only language that it understands…..Silence.
This book was based on a very touching story about a woman who lost her husband while she was pregnant. The dream entries were quite poignant but I had a bit of trouble with the rest of the manuscript as it was written in a very formal manner.
This book was interesting as it came from the perspective of an Indian woman. It speaks of the Indian culture and the expectations towards women as well as the subculture of the Indian Air Force. At times I was confused as to some of the lingo because it was written from that perspective. However, the book speaks in a humanistic way as well when it describes the tragedy and pain of losing someone close to one's heart.
Overall, I would recommend this story because it gives unique insight into India's cultural expectations towards women. It also speaks of the tragedy of love lost and dreams coming to an end-something everyone can relate to. If you enjoy studying other cultures or can relate to the pain of loss, this story is for you.
1. What prompted you to write your story?
I had always wanted to do something for my husband; something that would make him proud. This story is a tribute to him, a homage to what he did for his country and the principles he stood for. Also, the support that I got from my organization helped me and my family bounce back and start living again. Hence, this book is my way of expressing my gratitude to all the men and women in blue and their families.
2. Is there anything autobiographical in your story?
Yes, it is my story. I re-live a particular event in my life through Apoorva. All the characters exist in reality. Hence, names have been changed to protect their identity. Since the story is based on a real-life incident and narrated as a fiction, hence the genre is reality fiction.
3. What would you like to accomplish as an author?
My sole aim as an author is to narrate stories that can evoke emotions and touch a chord in the reader's heart. I wish to write about events in my organization which would bring out its humane side. Also, I want to write about things, people and places that have touched my life and brought about a positive change in me. I believe that every story has something good to offer its readers. I dream of my stories to have something to share with the readers.
I would like my readers to accept me as I am. I am but one of the woman in blue who would do anything for her organization. I am a wife of a martyr and wish to continue being acknowledged as his spouse and not a widow; after all, his not being physically present in my life does not mean that he is no longer my husband. Why label me a widow, when I am still married to the man I call my husband? Above all, I am a mother who wants her children to remember their father as a man who loved his family, loved his country and loved his uniform. In short, I am like any other woman who wants to live a life of dignity and retain her sanity inspite of changes in ccircumstances.
If I could have one wish granted to me it would be to make sure that no woman whose spouse is dead is called a Widow. The very existence of this word acts as a stigma and makes a woman vulnerable. Its bad enough to have a spouse missing from one's life, but it is worse to be thought of as readily available for lecherous men.
6. If you had one day in life to do whatever you wished, , regardless of cost, what would it be?
I would want a time machine to take me and my two kids into the past so as to spend that whole day with my husband. I was pregnant with my second child when he had died. I wish I could get him to meet his baby, now grown up, in person.
Demon's Ink is an interesting tale about supernatural encounters and spiritual ramifications. The reader journeys down corridors of religious implications as he/she joins with the main characters of this book..
If you enjoy paranormal writing, you'll enjoy Demon's Ink. The story line is suitably gripping and is deserving of a 4 star rating. The only reason why I rated it 3 stars is because there are some formatting issues which need to be addressed. However, the plot is well constructed and the characters are easy to believe and identify with.
Further interest is generated into the story by the author's use of biblical quotes and symbols making Demon's Ink suitably compelling and thought provoking. A great read for the upcoming season of Halloween!
I loved Stephen King's Needful Things and the idea of a Demon taking up shop in town, where people buy needless objects that end up costing them more than their lives. And with so many people getting tattoos nowadays. . . I thought I could put a new twist on an old tale.
2. What is your favorite genre to write?
Food: Could I say coffee…? No. That's not a food. So, I'll say chocolate.
Activity: Reading/writing and maybe running.
I grew up in a family with 9 kids and 1 t.v. so I spent my afternoons reading. Maybe not having much when I was growing up, brought me more as a grownup.
I just sold a romantic thriller to Clean Reads and now I'm working on a historical horror.
7. If you could give one piece of advice about life to your readers, what would it be?
Set goals in life and then don't let anything get in your way…not even yourself.

Guns Air Guns
Why I Shoot Airguns
April 18, 2016 By Tom Gaylord
You probably think that because I write about airguns that I don't shoot firearms. Well, actually, I grew up interested in firearms and only casually associated with airguns because they happened to be around. As a teenager, I had a subscription to American Rifleman, Guns & Ammo and Firearms News and read Elmer Keith, P.O. Ackley and the writers they venerated, such as Townsend Whelen. I understood external ballistics at a time when most boys my age were memorizing ball scores.
I had help developing my love of guns. My mother signed me up for an NRA firearms familiarization course that lasted three weeks. She also forbid me to have a BB gun, so naturally they became the object of my young passion.
And, then, something changed. I'm not quite sure what it was. Perhaps, I was older, perhaps, because we moved to a larger place in the country, things became freer. All I know is that the shackles came off and my gun-owning days began — and almost ended! My first firearm was a Remington 551 autoloader that I hated. My next one was a Colt Army Special in .38 Special! It was my grandfather's service revolver when he had been a local constable. I learned to shoot centerfire handguns from that gentle relic; and from then on, I owned and traded guns like a professional, but that's a different story.
Through it all, I owned a couple airguns, but nothing very interesting. At the time, I felt that airguns were beneath me. They weren't firearms, after all!
I worked my way through college as a hired gun. Deputy Marshal of Frontier Village. I'm in the white hat!
In college, I worked at Frontier Village, a western-themed amusement park in San Jose, California, where I was a ride operator, a picnic manager and finally a deputy marshal. That got me into the gunfights we had every hour on the hour, and that, in turn, started me reloading.
We all shot Colt .45 single-actions in the gunfights. A couple of us tried other guns before we gave up and bought our Colts. In the beginning, I shot a Great Western in .38 Special, so I had to reload my own blanks, while the outlaw, Dakota, shot a Hawes single-action for a while. But, those guns had reliability problems that the Colts never had, so we finally bit the bullet and bought our Colts. Dakota bought a Gen 2 cavalry model, and I bought a Gen 1 artillery model. Eventually, I had it rebarrelled with the longer 7.5-inch barrel and life was good.
Pellet guns were not in the picture during this period but Vietnam was, and I was in ROTC. So in June 1970, I went off to my Officer's Basic course at Fort Knox. From then on, I was a tanker and shot just about everything the Army had. I got my fill of the puny M16 quick enough, and there was enough full-auto shooting of individual and crew-served weapons to complete my rock-and-roll dance card for all time.
But in 1976, the light switch was tripped. While stationed in Germany with the First Armored Division, I was on a sightseeing trip to the historic walled city of Rothenburg when I turned the corner and stumbled into a gun store! In Germany! This was the first German gun store I had ever seen, even though I had been in country for a couple of years.
This Diana model 10 air pistol changed my life and defined my future, though I didn't know it at the time.
The store owner saw my interest in fine guns and showed me a Walther LGR target rifle. He told me it was an airgun, which completely blew me away. It was so big and heavy and right! Such a rifle spoke volumes about accuracy and pride of ownership. I wanted it so much! But, the price that worked out to over $400 was too much for a family man.However, all was not lost. He also had a cased Diana model 10 target pistol that was quite nice. It was much cheaper, and I got out the door with that pistol, a steel target trap and 5,000 RWS Meisterkugeln wadcutter pellets for $218.
From that point on, I shot firearms for a living and airguns for recreation. The rest of the time I was in Germany, I shot that pistol in our tiny apartment with the steel pellet trap hanging on our steel-sheathed front door. I had exactly 19 feet of distance to use and no one could be home when I shot.
Coincidently with this purchase, Robert Beeman was well into getting his company started, and he wrote and edited the first volume of Airgun Digest. I immediately sent for his color catalogs, which I read and memorized. They built up such a desire to own a real Beeman airgun that when I returned home to California in late 1977, the first thing I did was drive up over the Golden Gate Bridge to the Beeman store in Santa Rosa, where I bought the icon air rifle of the '70s — a Feinwerkbau 124. It would be several years before I became aware that the German city in which I had been stationed for four years, Erlangen, was home to the BSF airgun company and I had lived literally a stone's throw from the mother lode of precision adult airguns. Never mind that — I now owned a real Beeman!
But, my joy was incomplete. I now had the epitome of fine airguns, both rifle and pistol, but as far as I knew, I was alone on the planet. I still had trading tables at the gun shows where I would see the occasional Crosman or Benjamin from time to time, but there was no real information about airguns. There were no books, no magazines to pore over. The few airgun articles that made their way into firearms magazines were vague and lacking in detail. Gun writers back then (and now) knew little about airguns, it seems.
Robert Beeman (left) founder of Beeman Precision Airguns, speaks with a relative of Captain Clark of the Lewis & Clark Expedition to discover more about the airgun they carried.
In 1991, the clouds parted and a ray of sunshine beamed down in the form of a U.S. magazine about airguns. It was titled U.S. Airguns, and you had to know it was subscriber-only, because it wasn't carried on any newsstand. I subscribed immediately and thought my joy was complete. And, it was, until the third quarterly issue failed to arrive. I called the subscription number and a pleasant lady assured me it would be there any day. I'm still waiting for that day.
To say I was in a funk would trivialize the dark cloud that settled over my head. I was beside myself with anguish. Finally, my wife, who could stand it no longer, asked me why I didn't start a magazine of my own. That was absurd, I thought. What do I know about airguns? I would be out of material before finishing the first issue.
She challenged me to write the titles of some articles I thought I could write from what I knew, and by the time I finished filling the third sheet of a legal tablet I knew I could do it. All that reading as a youngster, added to all my shooting experience as an adult added up to one huge non-accredited credential as a shooting sports enthusiast.
We decided to write a monthly newsletter instead of a whole magazine, because it was more in keeping with our two separate full-time jobs. The first issue went out in March 1994. Over time, the full-time jobs went away, leaving just The Airgun Letter and an occasional Airgun Revue magazine. There was a brief interlude with a national newsstand magazine called Airgun Illustrated, but it flopped after a few issues.
However, in 2001, the editor of Shotgun News, now Firearms News, Bob Hunnicutt, asked me to write some feature articles for him. Naturally, most of those were about airguns, but he also allowed me the occasional foray into firearms if the subject was interesting. I began an association that has blossomed into a solid relationship. So solid that when Airgun Illustrated magazine went south in 2003, I was able to shift gears and pick up this column that was so thoughtfully and graciously extended.
At the same time, I had been writing the occasional internet article for my friend, Josh Ungier, for his Pyramyd Air website. In 2005, Josh asked me to write a full-time daily blog about airguns for his site. That began in March of that year and is still going strong.
All this writing has driven me to test a wide range of airguns and to expand my horizons to the entire airgun industry. I started attending the SHOT Show in 1996 and began to meet the manufacturers and the owners who make the airgun industry go. Men like Dieter Anschütz and Hans Weihrauch, Jr., and Robert Beeman come to these shows and will sometimes talk at length about the drama behind the scenes. Listening to them is an education that money can't buy.
Writing also leads to a bushel and a peck of shooting. While I may bust a couple thousand caps each year shooting firearms, I launch well over 25,000 pellets and BBs in the same timeframe. I shoot something almost every day, which you can easily do with airguns. That number doesn't take into account the airsoft BBs I also shoot, because airsoft is part of my beat, as well. I'm shooting all the time.
If you live in Alaska or certain parts of the West, I'm sure you can walk outside and shoot firearms all you want, but guys like me have to load up the truck with gear and drive to the range, where we can shoot for a while if we're lucky. I augment that with an occasional splash at the local indoor range, when I just have to smell burned power or go mad. As I glance around my office right now, I see 19 air rifles and seven air pistols standing by, ready to go into action in an instant. Two bullet traps await the whim. Several hundred more guns are within 20 steps, in a bedroom that is now called "The Gun Room."
It should be obvious why I shoot airguns. I shoot them because I like them, and because they have become part of my life. A life that is supported entirely by the shooting sports.

It's fitting perhaps that the Albertus Magnus High School and Pearl River High School boys soccer teams, both faced with different challenges this season, get underway on Labor Day at the fourth annual Rockland-Westchester Challenge.
The Challenge, inaugurated three years ago by Lakeland HS, is scheduled at the OMM soccer field complex in Orangeburg. There are five games on the agenda, beginning at 2 p.m., and features the Pearl River-Lakeland matchup at 6:30 p.m.
"It's a fund-raiser that's become a tradition," notes Pirates coach Damon O'Keefe of Tappan, who was a three-sport athlete at Tuxedo HS and later survived three-plus years on the rugby pitch while at SUNY Cortlandt.
This year the beneficiaries are Pearl River senior Francesco Galvano, whose blood cancer diagnosed in middle school apparently is in remission; and two families in need in the community. Galvano, whose recovery has been going well, especially the last three years, said O'Keefe, will be used at a forward position.
Coach O'Keefe, who lost three players now at the collegiate level and a team captain who has enough talent to play at that level, realizes the only way to improve upon last season would be to win a state title, no easy task.
At Albertus Magnus, where Coach Fitzpatrick is into his 20th year on the sideline, the Falcons are coming off what he described as a "decent year," going 8-8-1.
"We surprised (the opposition) a bit last year, so we'd like to improve upon that," added Fitzpatrick, a 1990 alum of Albertus Magnus who played soccer for the Falcons and then at Manhattan College.
Interestingly, this year marks the 10th anniversary of Coach Fitzpatrick's 2006 state championship team, which will be inducted into the school's hall of fame on November 19 (for information call 845-623-8842).
The leading scorer of that team was Kyle Hoffer, who then starred at St. John's University and only recently stopped playing professionally in Europe. Hoffer will be an assistant coach, as he often contributed beforehand whenever he was in town.
Looking to this season, Coach Fitzpatrick is counting upon several standouts, led by co-captains Kieran Doherty, a junior and the only defender who is returning, and senior center midfielder Joe Michalak.
Senior Ellis Sanches, used mostly in the midfield last season, will be tried as a forward this year where he can use his speed and ball-handling.
Pearl River, which has developed a rivalry with Lakeland, is looking for its third straight win against the Hornets – whose coach Tim Hourahan has developed a friendship with his Pirates counterpart.
The Pirates, feels Coach O'Keefe, are very strong in goal with veteran senior Dolan Ocasal. Returning defenders are seniors Christian Madigan and Timmy Valentine.
Coach Fitzpatrick, conversely, has not yet settled on the goalie position, and is planning to use both senior Chris McAvoy and sophomore Steven Travaglini — a field player on the junior varsity a year ago — until a steady starter emerges.
Chris McAvoy's brother Patrick – now playing at Lasell College in Boston, Mass. – is the big void to fill in net, while Michael Padron was a key defenseman lost to graduation.
"That's two big holes to fill; they were our captains last year," concluded Coach Fitzpatrick.
IN BRIEF: The North Rockland HS volleyball team, powered by outside hitter Madison Monahan, opens its season on September 8 at Fox Lane in Bedford. The Red Raiders are expected to threaten in Class AA.
COLLEGIATE CLIPS: The men's and women's cross country teams at Nyack College are off and running on September 3, competing in the Wilmington Invite at Carousel Park in Wilmington, Del. The women will race over 5k starting at 9:45 a.m. while the men's 8k is scheduled to start at 10:30. …The men's and women's cross country teams at St. Thomas Aquinas College in Sparkill are heavily laden with county talent. On the men's side, the squad includes junior Vincent Vasquezand freshman Stefan Saeed, both of Stony Point; Kyle Kondracki of Pearl River; Austin Lubbe of New City, and Mich Philistin of Spring Valley, all freshmen; and senior standout Jamar Linares of Nyack. The women's team includes senior Kaitlyn O'Grady and freshman Aida Torpey, both of Tomkins Cove; senior Jumana Khatib and junior Angelica Matwiejczuk, both of Suffern; and junior Kara Santa Teresa of Nanuet. The Spartans and Lady Spartans open the season onSeptember 10 at the Fordham Fiasco, to be held at Van Cortland Park in the Bronx. The women's race is slated to start at 9:30 a.m. with the men's race at 10. … The Iona College women's soccer team, which includes forward Marisa Bentley of Blauvelt, will be home in New Rochelle on September 2 to meet New Jersey Institute of Technology at 3 p.m. … Deja Smith of Suffern is a middle hitter on the women's volleyball team at SUNY Cortlandt. The Red Dragons are home on Sept. 2-3 for contests against Misericordia, Rochester, Stockton and Alfred. Cortlandt next competes at the Austin College Invitational in Sherman, Texas, Sept. 9-14. … The SUNY Plattsburgh men's cross country team hosts the Cardinal Classic at Rugar Woods on September 3. The Cardinals feature Clarkstown North HS alum Zach Rose of New City and North Rockland HS graduate Stephen Schnalzer of Garnerville.


The FCC recently reminded people (on 5/28) in the United States that there has been a change in spectrum allocation to avoid interference. On June 12, 2010, wireless microphones and monitors will no longer be able to be used in the 700 MHz band (specifically698 to 806 MHz). Here is the PDF on the FCC website.
What this means, is those individuals/groups who use wireless microphones for audio capture for video, screencapture, or podcasting, in the above bandwidth will start to receive noise and non-ideal audio as new 4G consumer devices are deployed in proximity to the wireless microphone.
The solution for the vodcasters/screencasters/podcasters is to either replace the wireless microphone or work with the equipment manufacturer to get the wireless radio inside the transmitter & receiver changed out to operate on a frequency outside the 700 MHz band. Some manufacturers have a trade-in or rebate programs to help people with this change.
Here is another helpful link on the FCC website which lists known wireless microphones in the 700 MHz band.

HAPPY SCHOOL YEAR.... BETTER IF WITH THE SUPPORT TEACHER ALREADY ASSIGNED!
I try to explain to you how the recruitment of support teachers takes place, the complexity of this mechanism is perhaps the basis of the many problems that families denounce.
In each ISC (NDR: Comprehensive school) there is, for the support, a workforce of law, constituted by the teachers of role and then fixed in the school, and a staff of fact, constituted by the teachers who annually are attributed To the Institute by the Regional School office to cope with the needs of the moment.
At the base of everything, for the allocation of the hours of support, there is the functional diagnosis, where are indicated the hours of which the child needs, these hours are inversely proportional to the autonomy that the child has: the more the degree of autonomy is greater, the less they are The hours that are required.
The school thus has the necessary staff in September to cope with the hours required by the various functional diagnoses.
At this point, the leader, with the group for inclusion (of this group are the teachers of support and some teachers of Class), assigns the hours to the individual children, taking into account also the hours of assistance to the person made available by the municipality and of the criteria Educativiespressi in the POF (NDR: Plans of the formative offer). If the municipality has set up a substantial hours mount it may happen that children who need mainly assistance have less hours of support than those established by the diagnosis and more hours of assistance: In this way you can meet needs born beyond the Deadline or you can increase the hours, in cases where they are too small.
To the contrary it may happen that the hours of assistance are low (it is the most common case) for consent tries to cope with the most problematic cases decreasing the hours to the more autonomous children and easier management.
In this complex mechanism the needs of the staff are included (sometimes a single teacher is in service in several schools not always close to each other) and the therapeutic needs of the children (absent on certain days and in certain hours).
The definitive word on assignments is always that of the school manager, so I always advise parents to talk about the problems of the child with the manager or, where it is not possible, with the representative for the inclusion that the manager has designated In their own institution. In the case of children not fully autonomous it is advisable to speak also with the social services of the municipality: all this is good to do before the assignments and that is in these first days of September.
If you create unpleasant situations is good to ask explanations: I have many years I teach and I can assure you that the effort to fix things at best is remarkable and is greater in cases where the family is interested, aware and collaborative.
Happy school year to all our little heroes!
And thanks to Annarita who brought us this testimony as a teacher and a mother of a #littlefighter.

A Boy and His Blob's art direction has received widespread critical acclaim and praise, and was utilized by the developers, in addition to a minimalistic story, in order to create a "heartwarming...and friendly game" accessible to a wide audience. The boy can feed the blob a variety of jellybeans, which are unlocked as the game progresses and vary depending on the level, which transforms it into one of fifteen different objects that can be used to solve puzzles and defeat enemies.

Atlanta will open its arms this Saturday for a national gathering of over 5,000 city planners, elected officials, students, consultants, and various organizations from across the country for the 2014 American Planning Association conference that runs through Wednesday at the Georgia World Congress Center.
I think that sentiment can also apply to urban planning. So we're glad you're here. We'd like to tell you about a more forward South that is emerging before our eyes. Like yours, our world is changing and we have to adapt in order to survive. But we're also changing because just like you, we want to leave a more sustainable, healthy, and prosperous region for our children. The Atlanta Beltline is a leading part of this movement. It is not only changing the physical form of the city. It is transforming the way we think about Atlanta. It is changing our cultural expectations for the places that we live in ways that ars sure to make more comprehensive changes more politically palatable.
Take a look at the Atlanta Beltline while you're here – it's probably bigger and badder than you realize. But also notice the other early indications of this city's transformation – a bar-raising monster of architectural adaptation, a world-class restaurant scene, an emerging bicycle movement, a new streetcar, an acclaimed street-art collection, and somewhere floating in springtime breeze, the epicenter of hip hop. Also check out #weloveatl on Instagram. That love, captured in thousands of images across the region, has uncovered a gentle but urgent request for something other than traffic jams and strip malls. It signals the direction of a new generation that is embracing the best of the South and also welcoming new ideas about the construction of our future. The city that brought you Dr. King's dream has again become a wide open place, where almost anything seems possible.
TO MY FELLOW ATLANTANS, let me offer a few words of introduction and advice regarding your possible encounters with city planners. Be forewarned that you may find crowds of them taking pictures of what looks to you like a standard sidewalk. You may overhear them debating the benefits of various population densities, discussing our car-dependent commutes measured in "lane miles," or otherwise talking effusively about whatever enjoyable or repulsive set of physical, social, or economic conditions they may stumble across in our fair our city. They'll use more acronyms than you can imagine, so arm yourselves with the basics: "TOD" is Transit Oriented Development; "VMT" is Vehicle Miles Travelled; "FAR" is Floor Area Ration, a measure of density; and "BMP" is Best Management Practice.

Always with a Book: Writer, Dreamer, Do-er
Today's Interview
SPEAKING OF APRAXIA
Jennifer Chiaverini talks about her new book, THE CHRISTMAS BOOK, how quilting binds friendships and community, her next book about Mrs. Lincoln's dressmakers, and so much more in this delightful winter read
By Leslie Lindsay
New to the Elm Creek Quilts series from bestselling author of THE QUILTER'S APPRENTICE, MRS. LINCOLN'S DRESSMAKER, and RESISTANCE WOMEN comes this warm story brimming with nostalgia.
On the eve of the twentieth anniversary of THE QUIILTER'S APPRENTICE, the novel that launched the Elm Creek Quilts series in 1999, comes an update on the quilters we've come to know and love. THE CHRISTMAS BOUTIQUE by Jennifer Chiaverini(William Morrow, Oct 1 2019) is a heartwarming tale steeped in nostalgia, old friendships and new. And I completely have a cover crush—you, too?!
It's a snowy day in mid-December when we awake and begin the day with Sylvia, master quilter, and recently remarried…but there's been a blizzard and the temperatures have plunged…water pipes at the local church have burst. The wooden floor at the community hall is warped and ruined and those plans for the Christmas Boutique—an annual sale of baked goods and handcrafted items to benefit the county food bank—is thwarted. Sylvia offers to host the event at Elm Creek Manor, her ancestral estate and also the summer home to her quilting camp.
We meet a host of different characters, of which the chapters are told in alternating POVs. There's Sylvia Bergstrom Compson, once a young wife on the World War Two home front, and her second husband, Andrew. Sarah, co-founder of Elm Creek Quilt Camp an expectant mother. Agnes, who reflects on a beloved antique quilt, and empty-nesters, Gwen and Diane, who are sometimes at odds, but also contemplate family heirlooms, unfinished projects, and more.
THE CHRISTMAS BOUTIQUE is a lighthearted, tender exploration of friendships, and much of it is told in the past, as a series of recollections. There's charm and wisdom here and it might feel as if you have settled in for a story with past generations. I especially loved the manor and wanted more about the house (I always do!) and found I relished in the idea of being snowed in with a cup of tea and a roaring fire.
Please join me in welcoming the lovely Jennifer Chiaverini to the author interview series:
Leslie Lindsay:
Jennifer, welcome. Twenty years! How did the Elm Creek Quilts begin, and can you give us a few reflections as you look back on twenty years with this series?
Jennifer Chiaverini:
It certainly has been an exciting and unexpected journey from THE QUILTER'S APPRENTICE two decades ago to THE CHRISTMAS BOUTIQUE today! Beginning writers are often advised to "write what you know," and when I was starting out, I took this advice seriously. Since I knew about quilters—their quirks, their inside jokes, their disputes and their generosity, their quarrels and their kindnesses—the lives of quilters became a natural subject for me. I also wanted to pay tribute to the quilters of ages past who had preserved and handed down their traditions through the generations.
When I first began writing about quilters, I had two audiences in mind. The first included my quilter friends, who I thought would enjoy reading about contemporary women like themselves with problems and dreams like their own, overcoming obstacles in their lives by taking strength from their own moral courage and from the support of faithful friends. I also believed quilters would appreciate a depiction of modern quilters and quilt-making free of the usual stereotypes. Yet I also intended to write for non-quilters, to give them some insight into the quilting world, so that they might better understand how passionate we quilters are about our art and why we love it so.

I am always so intrigued to know what inspired a particular title. After you wrapped up the series in 2012 with THE GIVING QUILT, what inspired you to resume the series with THE CHRISTMAS BOUTIQUE? Was it a location, a situation, a character, or something else you wanted to explore?
Although many of the Elm Creek Quilt novels are historical fiction—my favorite genre—eventually I reached a point where the historical subjects I found most compelling and the stories I most wanted to explore simply didn't fit within the framework of the series. So after twenty Elm Creek Quilts novels, I wrote several stand-alone historical novels, including Mrs. Lincoln's Dressmaker and Resistance Women. As a few years went by, readers continued to ask for another visit with Sylvia, Sarah, and their friends, so I decided to write The Christmas Boutique as a gift for these loyal fans. The twentieth anniversary of the series seemed an especially fine occasion to continue the Elm Creek Quilters' story.
"Devotees of the Quilts series will relish these new episodes, and new fans will delight to discover such a well-stocked back catalog. A warm portrait of women bound by craft—perfect for fireside reading."
─Kirkus
I love this longstanding American tradition of sort of 'piecing together' our stories into a collected whole. There's friendship and community that I think bind us—and these quilts—together. Can you speak to that, please?
I absolutely agree with you. In fact, one of the things I've always hoped readers would take away from the Elm Creek Quilts series is a greater understanding of how quilting is a wonderful creative outlet that can draw you into a wider community of talented, welcoming quilters who support and encourage one another. Perhaps more importantly, I hoped readers would discover how quilting can bring together people from different generations, nationalities, races, religions, and socioeconomic backgrounds into a patchwork of friendship.

I loved, loved Elm Creek Manor. Here's a passage I noted in THE CHRISTMAS BOUTIQUE:
"Sarah's ingenious and unlikely suggestion [to turn] Elm Creek Manor into a retreat for quilters, a place for them to stay, to learn, to find inspiration, and to enjoy the companionship of other quilters."
Can you give us some more details of the manor? I always want to know about houses and architecture. Is it inspired by an actual home?
I've described Sylvia's ancestral estate in so many novels that sometimes it almost feels like a real place that I've visited in the distant past. Unfortunately—and I hesitate to admit this because I know it will disappoint many readers—Elm Creek Manor is fictional. Only the red banked barn on Sylvia's estate has a real-life counterpart, a barn in Boalsburg, Pennsylvania that has been restored and turned into a theater-in-the-round for a local community theater company. I've provided a detailed floor plan of Elm Creek Manor in my illustrated guide to the series, An Elm Creek Quilts Companion.
There are a variety of characters and stories within THE CHRISTMAS BOUTIQUE. Is there a storyline or character you feel most aligned with? A story that might have come more organically for you?
Christmas is my favorite holiday, and I've set several novels during this festive season, including THE CHRISTMAS QUILT—another Elm Creek Quilts novel—and CHRISTMAS BELLS, a historical novel exploring how Henry Wadsworth Longfellow was inspired to write his famous poem of the same name (which is better known today as the carol "I Heard the Bells on Christmas Day") during the tragic years of the American Civil War. I suppose it's the holiday itself—its traditions and customs, its music and flavors—that I aligned with while writing THE CHRISTMAS BOUTIQUE rather than a particular storyline or character.
A common thread running through all of my novels, contemporary and historical alike, is the dynamic of the family, how those we are closest to and love most can be a source of both our greatest strength and our deepest insecurity and regret. Perhaps because of the expectations we have that Christmas is a time of joy and peace—and the effort we will make to create the mythical "Perfect Christmas"—the holidays tend to bring family conflicts to the surface, forcing us to deal with them at the least opportune moment. While this can make the holiday season difficult and stressful in real life, it offers wonderfully rich potential for storytelling.

What are your plans for the winter and holiday season?
I'm going to spend the holidays at home with my family, enjoying all of our favorite traditions. My mother, brother, and sister will be joining us from sunny Southern California, so I hope the weather will cooperate by giving us a lovely picturesque Wisconsin winter landscape outside the window but sparing us the artic temperatures. Best of all, my eldest son will be home from college for semester break. It will be so wonderful to have him home again!
It makes sense that everyone asks about quilting and writing, but do you wish you got asked more often?
I honestly never thought of it like that. I'm perfectly happy with how often readers ask me about quilting and writing as it is.

What is your next project? What are you working on now?
My next novel, Mrs. Lincoln's Sisters, explores the fascinating and often fraught relationships between Mary Todd Lincoln and her sisters and half-sisters. It's often said that the American Civil War pitted brother against brother, but in reality, in many families, all were pulled into the conflict even if they did not take up arms. Opposing loyalties often divided sisters from sisters, parents from children, and such was the case in the Todd family. Mary, of course, was married to Union President and Commander in Chief Abraham Lincoln, and some of her brothers and brothers-in-law served in his administration or in the Union Army. However, other siblings and in-laws served in the Confederate forces, and some of her sisters and half-sisters were wed to Confederate officers. Mrs. Lincoln's Sisters reveals how Mary's relationships with her sisters influenced her from childhood as she grew to be a charming, intelligent belle and future bride of the poor but brilliant ambitious Illinois lawyer who would become the nation's sixteenth president. The novel shows how her sisters supported her (or otherwise) and benefitted from their kinship (or suffered for it) when Mary ascended to the White House as first lady, and how they comforted her or kept their distance in the terrible, sorrowful years of her widowhood after her beloved husband was murdered right before her eyes.

I am interested in place and how that shapes us, as well as the interstitial connection of family, dysfunction, home, and the symmetry and parallels of nature. I think of those spaces of where we exist—what we've inherited--as distinct from where we belong.
Someone asked me recently why my laundry room was so fancy? Sure, it's used for cleaning clothes, putting on and taking off shoes and coats, for dropping the mail. It's also the last room I see when walking out the door (because it connects to my garage), and also the first thing I see after being away. So maybe it's fancy. Who cares? It also features our ancestors. And me, too on that bike in a newspaper clipping, and my hubby on his first day of school—probably 1st grade. And my father-in-law when he was four. His mother's graduation. In the metal utility tray above, salvaged somewhere along I-44, I like to think it's my grandfather's from his workshop because he was always tinkering. The spools 🧵 of thread—they might represent my mother, and her grandmother from Ireland, who were fabulous seamstresses (and an interior designer). And the first ancestor to come over from Scotland. The brick Sears kit house built by a father-and-son team then and now 🏡(1986). It's like all of these people are saying, "You got this. We're cheering you on." It makes me feel like we're in it together. #alwayswithabook #amreading #amwriting #TBR #laundryroom #teal #vintage #vintagestyle #kithomes #newspaperclippings #laundryroomdecor #ancestors #ancestorcollage #salvage #grandparents #interiordesign #interiordecorating
Hi! Good morning and welcome to Tackle it Tuesday! Did you know Tuesday is the most productive day of the week? Yep. They say Monday is for figuring things out, slogging through half-finished things from last week. Tuesday is for getting it done. That's what I'm doing today. As a human mom, I've got Jr High Student Council drop-off, soccer ⚽practice, HW supervision, dinner prep...🥘 As a book gal, I've got a book to review, one to read, an 📚interview to format, and artistic book photos to take... As a dog mom 🐶, I've got a hound to drop off at doggie day camp (Tuesday's are her favorite), and a grooming appointment to make... Also, it's Target Tuesday and I hope to make it to my favorite local vintage shop because I'm hunting for a cool piece of architectural salvage for a 🖼family ancestor wall collage. That's a lot, but I got this! #alwayswithabook #amreading #amwriting #ambusy #momlife #writerslife #writersofinstagram #tackleittuesday #targettuesday #bookstagram #bookstagrammer #bookreviews #bookreviewer #bookinfluencer #authorsofinstagram #bassetmom #momofteens #design #interiors #architecturelovers #vintagestyle
