We’ve all met the person who plays the victim, they love to waffle on about their woes and how they’ve been mistreated by the world. Victims never accept responsibility for their own actions, even when they were the person who started the drama and continued to stir the pot.
If you're trying to veer away from more commonly used names, these are some beautiful, but rare, baby names that you will absolutely love.
In her animal illustrations, artist Kelsey Oseid explores different animal groups. Her posters show the diversity of the world's living things.
I LOVE this photo! It has nothing to do with building science. Or does it? As we humans have progressed from living in caves to mud huts to stone buildings to the stick-built structures many of us in the US…

PDF Pattern Download By buying this listing, you are recognizing that you are buying a pattern, not the physical product itself. This crochet pattern was inspired by my love for bugs and nature, leading me to create beetle bug! It is an original design and my first created crochet pattern. I hope that those who buy this have a fun time creating this pattern. This design was a fun project to do on rainy days inside and is recommended for an intermediate level, though is written beginner friendly. The pattern lists all the steps as well as images along side to help make the process easier to understand. This is for personal use only, please do not sell my designs online. This is a perfect gift for fellow bug lovers and a cozy sweater for the fall and winter season. It is an oversized fit and one size fits all! Adjustments can be made for personal needs and are written into the pattern as well.
Just looking at these pictures makes me think a stock photographer’s life must sometimes be quite fun. For example, photographing strange and bizarre scenes that at first seem utterly inappropriate but once given a headline almost make perfect sense. Toddler shoots Mom with loaded .45 found in her handbag or Jealous wife stabs husband over dirty texts from his lover or Shopping Mall Santa is a Serial Sex Perv! You get the idea. What I want to know is there a weird stock photography office where you can apply for this job? Do they have a photographic editor who sits chomping on a cigar like J. Jonah Jameson barking out demands for pix of “Granny Shoots Mugger” or “This Baby Smokes a Pack a Day Just like Daddy!” or “Evil Babysitters let Kid snort cocaine!” These pictures all scream National Enquirer, if not the Daily Mail. Not enough aliens or Elvis to be of much use to the Weekly World News. Andy Kelly is a video games journalist who, quite understandably, finds this kind of stock photography hilarious. One day while browsing through the “perfect, smiling models eating salad, high-fiving each other, and pointing at flipcharts in boardrooms” Kelly...
About The Art of Love In the first century a.d., Ovid, author of the groundbreaking epic poem Metamorphoses , came under severe criticism for The Art of Love , which playfully instructed women in the art of seduction and men in the skills essential for mastering the art of romantic conquest. In this remarkable translation, James Michie breathes new life into the notorious Roman’s mock-didactic elegy. In lyrical, irreverent English, he reveals love’s timeless dilemmas and Ovid’s enduring brilliance as both poet and cultural critic.
I was grew up in Los Angeles, not too far from what was once Immaculate Heart College (IHC). Perhaps one of the biggest legacies of IHC is Sister Mary Corita, better known to many as Corita Kent, artist-activist and chairperson of the IHC art department from 1951-1968. Do you know about Corita Kent? In her own […]

Often people make the mistake of thinking of art as something that is to do only with the senses and nothing to do with practicality. People who think like this are right in thinking that art can please the senses and wrong in that they think art has no practical use. Did you know that some arts have practical uses? In fact, when you consider aspects like elegant backyard pond ideas, you can see both the practical and artistic aspects of art. In fact, it is a good idea to involve younger people like teenagers in practical projects that also involve art to ensure that this aspect of their personality develops as they grow into adulthood.
Loss of a pet is a devastating time. They are our family members, friends, confidants. I know what it is like to lose a beloved pet and how comforting it can be to have a likeness to remember our loved one gone over the Rainbow Bridge. I will work with you to create a close resemblance of your departed kitty, or that of someone close to you. A custom miniature porcelain kitty similar to those seen in the photos will be made, based on your provided reference photos. The pose will be agreed upon before sculpture is modelled. You will be apprised of the progress of the figurine by photo and discussion via email or FB conversation, during formation, bisque firing, underglaze painting, and glaze firing. Your miniature pet memorial is hand-made and hand-painted cone 6 (medium fire) white porcelain with underglaze colours, protected by a coat of clear glaze. S/he is twice fired (bisque and glaze firings) in the kiln, and is quite resilient unless dropped. All porcelain is strong but still fragile. S/he will be created with love and care in my home studio in Martensville, Saskatchewan, just outside of Saskatoon, on the Canadian Prairies. Custom size: approx 1.5" long, body + tail, and 1" wide. Due to different computer screens and lighting, as well as the firing process, the colours may vary slightly from what you see on your screen. As it is entirely hand-made, and not moulded, there may be slight surface imperfections, which add to its unique nature. All my animals are unique and made individually, not made in a mould. The client is advised there may be additional delays if there are mishaps in the process which necessitate redoing part or all of the piece. Being a custom project, refunds will only be given upon artist's failure to complete the order as requested, or upon breakage of the item while in the artist's care. Thank you for ordering a custom sculpture of your beloved pet. Please view my other animal friends. **** Due to Covid-19, shipments may be delayed during shipping**** *two miniature animals or possibly more, ship for the same price as one. UNTRACKED shipping should take about 5 business days once mailed within Canada, 8-14 days (small packet air) to USA or overseas from North America (International Air), and which can take up 1-2 MONTH by surface. Upgrade options are available. Please note that these times are reasonable estimates given by Canada Post, and I cannot guarantee them. If time is of an essence, please contact me for reliable options that are "guaranteed" (the words of Canada Post!) FREE SHIPPING with another order. Please contact me for combined shipping.

Children’s clothing evolved as time went by during the Victorian era. Many of these styles mirrored the adult styles of the day to some extent. Small girls wore crinoline petticoats like their mothers. There was a significant difference between the clothes worn by girls and their mothers. The length of the skirts worn by little girls was short than their mothers. Around the age of 16 a girls skirt would be full length down to the ankles just like their mothers. In fact, by this time the well to do young ladies would be dressing in the same fashion as adults. Until the late 1800’s girls were still wearing corsets. Below is a collection of 37 vintage portraits of beautiful teenage girls from the Victorian era.

I thoroughly enjoyed Jamie's first list of "10 Words That Can't Be Translated Into English" and so I set about researching for a sequel. These words are unique in their own language, and this is incredibly fascinating as it demonstrates how fragile and delicate each and every language is to the culture to which it pertains. So, here you go: another 10 words which quite simply can't be translated into English.
