Trend 2010 | black under color

trends fashion 2010
This is one of the trends for fall winter 2009 2010: black turtlenecks under color. This look adds drama and depth to outfits that might otherwise look flighty, out of season, or just too optimistic.
More 2010 fashion trends:

"In this time of introspection, on the eve of my election..."

"I say to my reflection, "God please spare me more rejection!"."

Yes, I love elections. Love love love them. The Hare-Clark system is so much fun! Woop woop! Five-member electorates, preference counts, the uncertainty when a candidate gets excluded ("Will their votes stay within the party????"). Ahhhh, fun.

It's like the Olympics. It happens once every four years, the buildup is long and boring, but the action itself is great. You can follow all the action here.

The Final Linkdown... doo doo doo dooo!

Okay, another bunch of links, but only because I've got so many and I want to get them out of the way! Seriously, I've got 99 problems but links ain't one.

So:
- A new pilot from David Milch, aka the man behind Deadwood. Still a legendary show that I think has been in the shadow of The Wire recently. This one is about horse racing.
- And a new show from David Simon, the man behind The Wire.It's about Hurricane Katrina. Should be multi-layered and critically acclaimed. Like an onion. Or a tasty parfait.
- HBO is doing a show about 1920s gangsters, with Steve Buscemi! Yus!
- Great article about what happens if you get the best violinist of his generation to busk in a Washington plaza. Really good read, and a fun idea.
- Gladwell yet again proves why he's so fantastic with this great article about jobs that you need to do before you know if you're any good at them. The ones he talks about are school teachers and NFL quarterbacks. Interesting for me in my role as education reporter.
- New York Times investigating the Church of Scientology. I have to say the allegations are remarkably similar and crop up across every branch of Scientology.
- Australia not pulling its weight in Afghanistan, with our soldiers not allowed to fight due to political pressure from our Government. I understand the desire to keep soldiers safe and keep death tolls down... but soldiers are soldiers. It's their job to wage violence when necessary.

MY TAKE ON PUMPKIN CARVING

Posted by Picasa
These three pictures are my pumpkins from the last three Halloweens. I am not one to
carve out the skin of the pumpkins and carve faces.  I like to add different things to it that
I can find and kind of make it look 3d.  My favorite things to use are glue on nails ( wich I
use mainly for teeth.  The eyeballs are ping pong balls (I can either find them in white or
luckely they also come in orange.  The other thing I like to use are bamboo skewers, I usually
use them for the hair or in the instance of one of them I used them through the nose.  I also have used
staples, usually when I put a cut or scar in them I use them to look like stiching.

Most of the stuff I use I get from the Dollar store or Walmart.  Ping pong balls are easy to work
with they can be turned at any angle.  To hold them in I will dril a small hole in both sides and use
either a tooth pick or a skewer to hold them in.  The fake finger nails, I use for teeth and to make
them look different, like sharp or jagged, I used a pair of scissors to cut them. 
I love having one large pumpkin head and using smaller pumpkins as the young ones.
Pumpkins eating their young, isn't that what Halloween is all about! I sometimes refer to the smaller
pumkins like popcorn chicken.  You can never get enough!!   So far my favorite one is the very first one
in the pictures.  I did that one for Halloween 2009.  He's my cannibal pumpkin with the skewers through
the nose and in the top like a mohawk.  His hands are just the right size for keeping a couple extra small
pumkins for an after dinner snack!!! HE! HE! HE!

- Signs you may have a political ideology disorder.
The symptoms for left wing ideology disorder are:
2. You hate Israel for being Israel without appreciating the threat of terrorism and that for all Israel’s faults it’s the region’s thriving democracy.
4. You think third world poverty exists because first world Governments are stingy and not because of poor governance, corruption and weak institutions.
The symptoms of right wing ideology disorder are:
2. Tax is your nemesis. You reflexively oppose any new tax, no matter its efficiency or fairness, and you don’t think rich dead people should pay an estate-tax.
- 11 Reasons Why Some Guy Didn't Hate The Star Wars Prequels.
- Matt Stone and Trey Parker (aka the South Park guy) explain why they're not conservatives, and not liberals either.
They have certainly mocked conservative groups and people on their show, but they tend to skewer liberals more often. Why? "Ripping on Republicans is not that fun for us only because everyone else does it," Matt explained. "It's so much more fun for us to rip on liberals only because nobody else does it, and not because we think liberals are worse than Republicans but, just because..."
Fun article.

- Top 10 internet filter lies. This is embarrassing. I actually don't mind a bit of censorship, because some stuff just doesn't need to be seen. But this is ridiculous. China and Iran are NOT the countries we should be looking at for guidance on our internet policy. And the filter will not stop child abuse images being sent to Australia. Everyone who has any clue knows they get shared in peer to peer networks and secret chatrooms. I've stumbled across a lot of strange stuff in my time on the internet, but NEVER anything like that. Stephen Conroy should get a freaking clue and talk to the AFP and see what they say. Gosh he's an idiot.
- Interesting article about the "rise of atheism" in Australia. The guy makes some good points. I think the thing I don't completely understand about the push for atheism is that I don't understand what it is. Is it anti-religion? Is it anti-philosophy? Is it the establishment of a new belief system? Is it a new religion? Is it all of those things? Is it simply a statement that there is no God, and that nothing on earth has meaning except for the meaning we give it? Questions, questions, I'll find answers somewhere.
- Io9 demands better vampires, given the current crop of entertainment that has ripped out the traditional downsides to being undead.
So...essentially you just live forever, right? That's it. You live forever, are super strong, and smoking hot.
And yet these vampires mope around like this is the greatest burden ever borne by preternaturally attractive man. The moping was because of the downsides, kids. Never seeing the sun. Being unable to have sex or connect with humans. Being hideous. The whole moral compass of vampire literature is that yeah, you live forever, but it sucks. And beneath that is the Christian assumption that you stole eternal life from its proper channels (Jesus) and took it for yourself through the devil. So it's a black reflection of life in the paradaisical hereafter. (Also no hereafter for the vampire if you get staked.)
- The WWF has proposed a scam to raise $60 billion. Well, perhaps not a scam, but certainly nothing ethical. I proposed a similar idea on my old blog, except I said I would keep selling the same block of trees to different companies. Keep it up, Righteous Eco-Warriors!

2009 HALLOWEEN GRAVEYARD

  This is a full picture of my 2009 graveyard haunt during the day. This year I added alot of new tombstones.  The witches were also added and so was the ground breaker coffin and the one with the hands coming out.   The second picture is of my porch area. It is covered so it leaves alot of room for my skelleton spiders of all different sizes and also the spider egg sacks. After it was all up I used a hot glue gun to make more realistic webs. The third picture is a close up of what they look like.  I tried one of those that used air but it leaked and just didn't work very well and the air leaked out. I will later tell you how I did this.

The Costumes Designed for Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland

The costumes in Tim Burton's Alice in Wonderland were simply WONDERful! No other way to put it! What a match made in heaven: Tim Burton, Johnny Depp, Alice in Wonderland, and Disney Digital 3D!

Here's an article I found from Women's Wear Daily, interview with the amazingly talented and creative Colleen Atwood! http://www.wwd.com

When Colleen Atwood set out to design the costumes for Tim Burton’s “Alice in Wonderland,” hitting theaters Friday [March 5, 2010], the last thing the Academy Award winner wanted to replicate was the cliché Alice-in-a-bag costumes that arrive on the shelves of drug stores every Halloween.

“I was running in the other direction from that,” declares Atwood, who ultimately rendered much of the film’s marquee cast virtually unrecognizable — turning Anne Hathaway into a frosty White Queen; Johnny Depp into a clown-faced Mad Hatter, and Helena Bonham Carter into a cartoonish Red Queen. To help with ideas, Atwood consulted a more authentic reference — the illustrations by John Tenniel and Lewis Carroll that accompanied early editions of Carroll’s 1865 classic.

Atwood can only take partial credit for the cast’s on-screen appearance, though. The costume designer relied on an extensive hair and makeup team that included head makeup artist Valli O’Reilly and hair department head Terry Baliel. What’s more, since Burton used a technique that combined live action with animation, Atwood was able to enhance her designs with the magic of movies. “I got to do all these new things I hadn’t done before,” says Atwood, who has worked with Burton on seven previous films including “Big Fish” and “Sweeney Todd.”

Maksim Designing Erin Andrews' Dancing With the Stars Costumes


What will ESPN's Erin Andrews wear on Dancing With the Stars?

"Maks is designing all my costumes!" she told UsMagazine.com of her partner, Maksim Chmerkovskiy, at the grand opening of Drai's Hollywood Wednesday.

"Expect a lot of sexy stuff!" chimed in Chmerkovskiy.

Not that Andrews, 31, minds.

"I have no problem with the costumes because this is a professional dancer so they know what they are doing and I trust them. I don't look at it as wearing a short skirt or that you are wearing something skimpy," Andrews told Us. "It's what they do for a living. It's their profession so I think it's cool to be a part of it."

Easter Bonnet Time!

It's that time of year - Easter parade at school and time to construct that flamboyant monstrosity that we know as an Easter bonnet. I have fond memories of my mother & nonna creating wacky and way out creations for my school parade and had wondered how I would ever measure up when the time came for the baton to be passed to me and the responsibility now on my shoulders to come up with a work of art worthy of comparison. Luckily for me, Gigi's school likes to encourage the children's creativity and hence we only need to provide the materials and they are involved in the construction of their own hats. Phew, big sigh of relief. For those of you that have been lumbered with the task of DIY Easter bonnets, I have found some really cute websites and blogs to help you with some ideas. Whether you prefer layers of tulle and silk flowers, paper mache eggs and tiny yellow fluffy chickens, or more simply a paper plate tied with ribbon and decorated with pipe cleaners, left over Christmas tinsel and crepe paper, there is something for everyone at a cute little blog called Easter Bonnets on Parade. Other sites you way want to check out include Easter Craft, Decorative Packaging Blog and I also found a more modern take on an Easter bonnet on Boo5's blog - an Easter Fascinator. You could even put it away and bring it out again on Melbourne Cup Day! Happy hat making xox

"Well the Ukraine girls really knock me out..."

"...they leave the West behind."

The Beatles knew what was going on. Especially when it comes to former Ukrainian Prime Minister Yulia Tymoshenko.

Woah! She is a little bit gorgeous! Unfortunately for those of us who appreciate politics and beautiful women (and the combination of the two), she is now in opposition.

She was number one on Hottest Heads of State, but her spot has been taken by the Canadian Governor-General.
Earlier this week, Viktor Yanukovich narrowly defeated Tymoshenko in the Ukranian presidential election with 49% of the vote to Tymoshenko’s 45.5%. Political analysts say that it is no coincidence that exactly 45.5% of Ukrainians are hot and 49% are only good-looking. (The remaining 5.5% are bears.*) This election was a classic case of the “hots” versus the “hot-nots,”
Our very own Kevin Rudd comes in at... number 128.
Rudd looks less like a criminal or an alligator hunter than he does like a junior high social studies teacher. And not even a tough, disciplinarian teacher, but a nice one who would get taken advantage of by his students if they didn’t like him so much. Everything about him is benign, from his moon-shaped face to his glasses to his crinkling eyes to his thin blonde hair. Kevin Rudd is exactly the kind of person you would like to meet in a darkened alley. Because you’d mug him.
Random link time!
- Ill informed public searches for "Assburgers" Syndrome.
- Where Deadwood stars have gone.
- Why everyone deserves a prom, even lesbians.

This reverence for prom tradition is particularly true in suburban America, where boys still pick up their date in their dad's car, pose for photos in girls' parents' hallways and then drive off to their high school gym to dance really badly to Usher ballads. I can direct you to the Facebook photos of some of my younger relatives to prove it.
And it's worth it, making McMillen's case all the more poignant. It is very possible that I will never feel quite as happy as I did on that one evening in the mid-90s, as I wore my small silver crown and danced with my king (Alex Zimmerman. Call me!), while surrounded by my 500 or so contemporaries. Dirty Dancing's (I've Had) The Time of My Life was playing on the sound system – never was a song more appropriate.

 Time to go!

Ke$ha apologizes to Brit Brit

About 3 weeks ago Ke$ha released a new song and in it she took a stab a Britney Spears......let's just say Britney wasn't too happy about it.

She warbles in her new track, Styrofoam:

"In 10 years, Britney Spears…Britney, who?"


Well now Ke$ha apologized to Britney on the Australian version of "So You Think You Can Dance?"

The excuses, the excuses.




VERY FIRST POST ON MY NEW BLOG

  This is my very first post to my blog.  I intend to get more organized and show some pictures of what I have
done and what I am doing.  I am an avid fan of Halloween and Christmas. I plan to share photos and how to's of how I decorate for these two holidays. I like to make my own props, my theme for the last few years
has been a grave yard and every year I add more and more to it.  Pictured will be posted in time.  Also during Christmas I usually deocrate the outside and inside and let my family decorate the tree.  Pictures of my different creations will be shown once I get a hange of this.
