I’ve finished restoring this wonderful vintage electric winder - the Simet winder.
Although it uses cones, yarn is a wound like a cake ball winder (up over the edges of the ball).
It’s now ready if needed for the upcoming #kcv2023 Knit City Vancouver Sep 23&24 (if we need to wind something quick - although the event does have a winding booth).
See the winder progress on https://www.csmlove.com/blog/2023_Apr23_Simet

Writing Goals for 2023
Since I’ve already articulated my general goals and one of them is writing a bit every day, I should probably make some plans for what I plan to write. All of my projects this year are Star Wars Fanfic.
1. My first goal this year is to finish the largish fic I’ve been working on intermittently for a while. It’s in the Little Lights Universe, and is Simet and Bes focused. I think I figured out everything that has to happen and how it needs to end, but there is a bunch of middle that has to be worked out.
2. My secondary goal is the sequel to ‘Love and Indifference.’ I got a good chunk written but it got stuck in the sense that I think the scenes planned need to be reordered as opposed to needing more material. Not that more material might not happen. It’s a bridging story, so hopefully people won’t hate it.
Other projects to work on when I get stuck on these first two include:
3. The Jedi Ghost story I outlined but only wrote the first scene of.
4. Finishing the WIP I started LAST CHRISTMAS BREAK (Lock and Qui). It only needs 1-2 short chapter, dammnit.
5. Outlining a story to follow Evenstar, exploring Obi-Wan’s relationship with his childhood mentor Master L.
6. Outlining a 5+1 fic for our favorite Rare Pair.

Dış Cephe Kaplama İzmir
Silikon Dış Cephe Kaplama Sistemleri Simetics silikon cephe sistemleri olarak İzmir ve Tüm Yurt çapında silikon dış cephe uygulamaları yapmaktayız. Silikon dış cephe İzmir ve Ege bölgesinde diğer cephe sistemlerine göre en çok tercih edilen sistemdir. Özel alüminyum karkas ve cam tutucu profiller ile binaya dıştan montaj yapılır , özel çelik ankreaj ile betonarmeye montaj yapıldığı için sağlam bir sistemdir ve binalarda alan kaybı olmamaktadır.
Diğer cephe sistemlerine göre daha estetik bir görünüm sağlayan silikon cephe uygulamalarında sadece 15 mm – 20 mm cam arası epydem fitiller görünmektedir. Günümüz teknolojisinde alüminyum profiller ve camlar istenilen renkte üretilbilmektidr ; bu sebepten ötürü mimari tasarım açısından oldukça özgün tasarımlar yapılabilmektedir.
Silikon dış cephe uygulamalarında estetik açıdan şık görünümü yanında sağlam ve dış etkenlere dayanıklı camlar kullanılır, dış cephedeki camlar temperlenir ve daha sonra alüminyum profillere özel silikon ile yapıştırılır ve montaja hazır hale gelir.

That akward feel when you are so deep into European culture your page and blog accidently look sus and nazi as fuck, but really you're a left liberal. "Like you're telling me you just happen to be Pro-Palistine and into Nordic reenactment and this is just a coincidence?" "You must be anti-simetic" I have a crush on a south asian man. 😂😂😂 My reenacment group that does the nordic stuf is fully of jewish people. 😂😂😂😂

Ether 10, Part 8. "War!"
The Prophet said there is a Quorum of legal and virtuous characteristics that can be held sacred and observed by a free productive society. We aren't so happy to pay attention to them and need to learn hard lessons, but they are there. They have always been there.
What would you say if you saw on the news that a bunch of kindergartners brought hand grenades, guns, knives, missile launchers, and bunch of fully loaded insulun syringes filled with cystal meth, home colonic machines, fuck machines, toys, dildos, cockrings, masturbation devices, like fleshligts, and vibrating butt plugs, slings, bondage gear, virtual reality glasses and cameras on pedestals to class? You would say, "one thing about living in DC I could never stand...all the goddam Mormons!"
You would think little kids would be taught "raise your hand, don't cut in line, don't tease people or push them around..." but no, we are teaching kids it's okay to bully them, give them drugs, and forcibly give them drugs and then make porn out of them. Our hearts are not only broken, they are empty.
By allowing the Republicans to exist, we are giving the blessing of state power to people who are heartless, allowing them to use it to project force on our soil and on Israel's soil, cringing when we realize it is actually making people mad, like, really, really pissed off.
I speak from experience. After I began trying in earnest to get that 2016 election annulled and Hillary Clinton sworn in, politely asked Phil Mendelsohn of the DC City Council to close the Family Research Council and RNC over it and their many, many civil rights violations, I began to experience their wrath instead of the other way around. President Trump still marches around like his shit don't stink, and the RNC is sitll trying to stir up mischief instead of doing its job of looking after the needs of the American polity and its international partners.
More than once, people like Jerry Falwell, David and Barbara Green, Tony Perkins, Mitt Romney, Mike Pence, Karl Rove, Josh Hawley, Thomas Massie, and Amy Barrett broke into my home with an army brigade of kindergartners and teenagers, all of them Mormons and tried to intimidate me, even try to kill me to get me to stop trying to force the government to handle Donald Trump and his election campaign crimes appropriately. Now he, who is on trial for trying cover up raucous sex with a porn star is telling the world we are crazy.
My attackers remain free to do whatever they want to others, and they have. The same persons that attacked me saw how easy it is in America to organize and do evil in the eyes of the Lord and now hundreds of thousands of people in Gaza and Israel are paying the price. Weapons of war of all sorts or rolling off the assembly line and onto cargo planes and train cars, and there is no end in sight to humanity's wickedness.
Almost all of the persons that attacked me here in DC have also been seen in Israel working alongside Hamas, Hezbollah, and the Iranian Republican Army. They were brought into the country by the Marriott Corporation to work in housekeeping, engineering, and front desk management of their hotels. Many of the incidents I reported to the police took place at a Marriott hotel just down the street from the White House. Some were working in the Bassoon Section of the Congress for Senator Roger Wicker and Lindsey Graham as gay male prostitutes. Michael T. Simet was their favorite, like his mates, a real winner with the chicken dinners if you know what I mean.
I even saw Donald Trump's pot bellied fat Secretary of State Mike Pompeo and Secretary of the Department of Energy Rick Perry hoist a kid who was not old enough to shave into a sling and take turns fuchking him. That doesn't even come close to the number of children his friend Linda Simspen from the Friends of Israel club has put her hands on. Now we find out they were wheeling and dealing with Hamas and Hezbollah in order to formulate an assault on Israel?
These are details the world needs in its possession in order to navigate the crisis that is taking place on Israel's soil and make sound decisions as to what to do about it.
Dick Cheney and the Mormons that attacked me heavily emphasized and premeditated an armed assault on Israel's territory in my presence. The police and FBI did not follow through on my reports, and lo and behold, on January 6, and then on October 7, and recently on a number of College Campuses, the Mormons began projecting force at others. They think the world belongs to them, except it belongs to everyone.
But this concept embodied in the Words of the Gospels and in the Flesh by the Christ is not for them. They used EMPs, guns, rockets, grendades, hack saws, knives and swords against innocent Israelis. They kidnapped them, they planned all of it, hoping to use their terror tunnels and immense stockpiles of weapons and munitions, hidden inside almost every apartment and bunker in Gaza City.
Then the fuckups who think black people are "dark and lazy" put on Palestinian head scarves and started jumping up and down in front of college campuses. Numbered among these were many of the kiddie porn stars I had the misfortune of meeting when they broke into my house.
I have looked these filth and their offspring in the eyes, thousands of times. They are not sane, they are not of the intellect, they are not human. They must pay for stepping foot on the sacred soil of Israel with their lives.
President Biden is therefore in err about the war in Gaza at this present time. The Republicans, Mormons, and their friends in the Middle East must be utterly annihilated. Their intentions and actions suggest a violent and inhumane regime that is well funded, organized, and armed and cannot be allowed to proceed.
Donald Trump, one its benefactors, is clearly ineligible to run for the Office of the President again, and the Republican Party must be disbanded, never again permitted to operate as the spoils of the war against their tyranny and depravity that are spoiling America.
The greatest weapon of war is peace, the greatest contributor to peace is repentance for all the war. Should we need to make war, as in the cases of the Russians, Republicans, and the Mormons, one makes war with the rage of angels, wins it and returns life to normal. This is how free and free thinking societies work.
They have hearts, which are harnessed to their very beings by the grace of God and it is that alone which moves them:
27 And they did make all manner of weapons of war. And they did work all manner of work of exceedingly curious workmanship.
28 And never could be a people more blessed than were they, and more prospered by the hand of the Lord. And they were in a land that was choice above all lands, for the Lord had spoken it.
29 And it came to pass that Lib did live many years, and begat sons and daughters; and he also begat Hearthom.
30 And it came to pass that Hearthom reigned in the stead of his father. And when Hearthom had reigned twenty and four years, behold, the kingdom was taken away from him. And he served many years in captivity, yea, even all the remainder of his days.
Wars in Jewish scriptures are called Sanhedrin, a meeting of Rabbis performed in order to measure the efficacy of the law and improve upon its ability to meet the needs of the human race. In spite of apparent strictures against gay people contained in the Torah, for example, we have decided as a human race to observe the Universal Declaration of Human Rights because this makes life better for a significant portion of mankind and cuts down on all the violence.
This is what wars of all sort are for. A prolonged or ineffective argument is no good, neither is a war that leaves mankind wondering.
The Values in Gematria are:
v. 27: And they did make all manner of weapons of war. And they did work all manner of work of exceedingly curious workmanship. The Value in Gematria is 8809, חחאֶפֶסט, "as an offset."
v. 28: And never could be a people more blessed than were they. The Value in Gematria is 9603, טואֶפֶסג , toepseg, "you'll be pissed off."
v. 29: And it came to pass he also begat Lib, "the heart" and Hearthom, "the harness." The Value in Gematria is 4208, דבאֶפֶסח , "the passover."
v. 30: And it came to pass the kingdom was taken away from him. And he served many years in captivity, yea, even all the remainder of his days. The Value in Gematria is 1111, אאאא, ayah ayah, ea ea or to be here, is to live on the Island of the Brotherhood of the House Israel."
The cause of mankind, contained in the words we love to hear about at Christmas time and forget the rest of the year, "Peace on earth, goodwill towards men and glory to God on high" has been faltering. If we must argue the case for war and then make war on those who are resistant to these words, then we tell the truth, we do it, observe the Passover and live as friends and brothers exactly like God told us we must do.
Thus is the harness of the heart, and the meaning of the Quorum of mankind.

apunte posible para La Califormnia
mi mamá me cuenta anoche que Juan cumplió 60 años. dios, o k, al punto hago la cuenta, y caigo en cuenta que nació en en 1964, en Marzo. y que tenia 16 o 17 años cuando yo nací, osea que eso es lo que nos llegamos, y que en 2005 cuando conoció a Carolina, tenia 41 o 42 años, mi edad actual. Voy a estar escribiendo hoy, con la edad que el tenía, cuando conocio a Carolina, y pienso, dios, si yo me siento en mi mejor momento ahora, seguro el también lo sentía, el momento capital de publicar su libro, al fin, de volver a casa, de encontrar a esta ninfa, mistérica.. .y luego toda la debacle... inmaduro?, igual no deja de ser notable esta geometría del tiempo y de la emoción, de nuestras edad, al universo le gustan las simet´rias, pero lo pero de esto es que tambi´ne le gustan las medias simetrias....

Partner: Ha a két Simet létrehoztad, a simednek és a partnerének a kapcsolatát fejlesztheted reménybeli partnerdé.

Minden második baba születése után újabb partnerre van szükség! 3. Első baba: Az első baba csak akkor születhet, amikor a kezdeti Sim eléri a karrierjében legalább a négy szintet. Ezt követően a Sim akkor szülhet újabb gyermeket, amikor az előző gyermek legalább tipegő korúvá vált. 4. Új anyuka: Az új anyuka akkor lehet, amikor az aktuális Sim meghal, és a legidősebb lány veszi át a helyét. Ha nincs lány, a kihívásnak vége. 5. Költözés: Ha a baba eléri a fiatal felnőtt kort, akkor lehetőség van költöztetni. Egyéb szabályok: Csalni tilos! Csak a MOVEOBJECTS ON és a RESTSIM használható! Modok használhatók a játékban.

The Widow's Best of 2023
Jane Hobson 2023: Following such a desperate year for so many in the world this quotation by Nietzsche seems pertinent. "We have art in order not to die of the truth." So, in an effort to uplift whoever might read this, here's a somewhat curtailed list of a few of our favourite things we've seen this year. It wasn't the hottest time for live shows; we walked out of five! One every few years, maybe, but five! Disappointing. However we still managed to find some wonderful things, not all of them new. Let's begin with…
MOST SPECTACULAR: Phelim McDermott's Akhnaten at the London Coliseum. We'd been asked so many times: "Have you seen Akhnaten?" No, we hadn't but now we have and, OK, it's a Philip Glass opera (pictured above and below) but really, with a set by Tom Pye and costumes by Kevin Pollard it's a full-on feast for the senses, with the ever-inventive Gandini Juggling, choreographed by Sean Gandini, doing what they do best.
Jane Hobson BEST CIRCUS SHOW: Cirque Le Roux's thrilling and ambitious Entre Chiens et Louves – staged at Le Bon Marché department store in Paris (take note Selfridges) – took our breath away even without the sublime Lolita Costet in the cast; and Circa's Humans II at the Queen Elizabeth Hall at London's Southbank Centre.
COMPANY TO WATCH: Hoops Désolé! A “crazy” six-strong troupe of artists drawn from the circus school in Quebec, Cirque du Soleil and Cirque Éloize.
Emma Kauldhar BEST DANCE: Wayne McGregor’s Woolf Works at London’s Royal Opera House, with the mesmerising Alessandra Ferri, who at 59 was the same age as Virginia Woolf when she died. Another dancer with astonishing longevity is the Spanish Lucía Lacarra, now 48, who appeared in the Ballet Icons Gala at the London Coliseum.
BEST SHOWBIZ MEMOIR: Walking Through Walls by performance artist Marina Abramović; Do It For Your Mum by Roy Wilkinson, then manager of his brothers' band British Sea Power.
MOST TERRIFYING: He's done some daring things in his time and on World Circus Day Hungarian high-wire artist Laci Simet performed a sensational walk across the River Danube – 40 metres up in the wind – with only a balance pole to keep him safe.
BEST FILM: German film Afire or Roter Himmel by Christian Petzold (he’ll never let you down); Babak Jalali’s Fremont, set in a fortune cookie factory; and the Mexican film The Empty Hours directed by Aarón Fernández.
BEST ARCHIVE PIC: Josephine Baker and Dalida at L’Olympia music hall in Paris in 1968. A legendary pair!
LONGEST-SERVING FEMALE DJ: Texan Mary McCoy, who at 85 has been on the air for almost 72 years, and entered the Guinness Book of Records.
BEST DESERT ISLAND DISCS CASTAWAY: Actor/comedian/writer and so on, Adrian Edmondson; snooker star Ronnie O’Sullivan.
MOST INSPIRING: The Maricarmen dance school in Chorrillos, south of Lima, in Peru, run by retired dancer Maria del Carmen Silva, offers free classes to girls of all abilities from low-income areas.
BEST DOCUMENTARY: Never Be a Punching Bag for Nobody by indie rock musician Naomi Yang; My Indiana Muse, in which artist Robert Townsend discovers his Kodachrome muse, Helen.
FOND FAREWELL: Actor David McCallum, who, as The Man from U.N.C.L.E.’s Illya Kuryakin was an enduring heartthrob for a certain generation of girls and women. Closer to home the UK lost its leading circus director, Phillip Gandey (above), at 67, whose shows – including Cirque Surreal, The Chinese State Circus and The Lady Boys of Bangkok – were always far and away the most creative and exciting; and The Circus of Horrors – a show I reviewed more times than any other, except perhaps Cirque du Soleil – lost its co-creator and frontman, Doktor Haze (below) at 66. Along with Gerry Cottle, they were notable as two of the nicest circus men I met during my reviewing years, and are greatly missed.
LAST WORD: It wouldn't be a Widow Stanton 'Best of' without some showgirls. This picture was taken by the Argentinian photographer Luisita Escarria, who with her sister Chela, documented all the artists appearing in revues in Buenos Aires from 1958 to 2009. Their story and wondrous archive might have been lost had it not been rescued by filmmakers Sol Miraglia and Hugo Manso. Their documentary Foto Estudio Luisita will warm your heart… and fortunately both the sisters lived long enough to see it.
