© Mrs. Flinger 2008.  My husband regularly tells me I am the most ADD person he knows. I tell him he doesn’t know a lot of people. He tells me he can’t know too many more people because I’m all the people he can handle. Then he kisses me and slaps my ass in fun and turns on the TV. Lately I’ve had this urge. I often get “urges” or “a bee in m

The outer envelope of cedar and metal roof has no windows, only large

I read quite a few blogs in the course of a week, some daily, some less frequent, but one thing I’ve noticed about a lot of the simplicity blogs is that the general picture that’s given is one where the woman is happy pottering about her home and garden, cleaning and cooking and growing her veggies. She knits, sews, shops locally and ethically and the impression I get is that everything’s

By Jessica Cander A few basic, descriptive words can define a person’s reputation in a mere brush stroke.

The adage”Simplicity is Beauty” does not only apply to individuals but it will also benefit you if you’re into copy writing. The simplicity rule should also apply on your copy.

Since readers are primarily interested

CPSC has gotten retailers to take the unusual step of recalling a product themselves. Because of Simplicity's new owner's refusal to recall this deadly product, the retailers stepped in. But it still might be for sale at other locations. If you see any of the models referenced in the CPSC alert for sale anywhere, please report it to CPSC. The alert has detailed pictures to show the affected models

The U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) has recently issued a warning about Simiplicity brand 3-in-1 and 4-in-1 Convertible “Close Sleepers” after a five month old Kansas girl was strangled to death by the space between the metal bar and the bed. In 2007, another four month old died after being entrapped in the metal [...]

Following the news this week of another death in a Simplicity Bassinet, CPSC has issued a warning urging parents and caregivers to stop using the bassinet involved. This warning is in lieu of a recall because CPSC can't get the company that now owns Simplicity to agree to a recall -- another sign of the weakness of the agency that hopefully will be remedied with the new legislation. CPSC did get

New reports have come to light of another death in a Simplicity bassinet. Last September, a four month old strangled in a Simplicity 4 in 1 bassinet when she slipped through the bars on the side of the bassinet that are covered only with fabric. Now it appears a seven month old has died in the same way. KID would recommend that anyone with this product stop using it. CPSC has known about the f

My son’s 30 and has what’s termed as ‘profound learning difficulties’. When he was six months old I was told that he would be ‘a vegetable’ (the doctor’s actual term) and was advised to put him into care and forget him. Yes, that’s actually what I was told. I didn’t.

Who couldn’t use a little bit of that in their lives from time to time? Or help achieving it.... A good friend of mine has recently been harping “simplify” at me.  That’s exactly what I need to do. Sometimes the areas in which you can simplify are obvious, other times, not so much.  Sometimes, we all need a little push in the right directions. I have found a website full o

We woke up about 4:30 on Sunday -- made some coffee, had breakfast --and headed out into the morning. The cool damp air created a gentle fog over the fields and ponds warmed by the sun the day before -- the sky was clear -- the roads were deserted -- we were driving. It's been a while since we just threw our fishing poles in the CR-V and drove; we have vowed to do it again and much more often. Wh

Then again, people are always asking for more, not less. Where is the compromise?

Yesterday when I was at Phillip’s place, he was in a very jovial mood. It was one of those days when he’s not in a mood to teach us the guitar. He was reminiscing about the good old days when love did not have so many profanities attached to it. He was talking how scandals, flings, affairs and everything in between are being passed off as ‘love’. He is not averse to the idea of falling in love, rather he is all for it. He just wants people to be more honest about their feelings.I was thinking about what he said on my way back to the apartment. The apartment was empty. Andrea, my roommate, must have gone out with her boyfriend. That reminded me of Phillip’s words again. Are they really in love or are they just checking out their compatibility quotient? It is a very critical questi

Today’s tutorial is a follow up of the previous post: Design Style Tutorial: SIMPLICITY IN WEB 2.0 (Part 1). Mastering CSS may need sometimes and hard work. I’m still learning to improve what I know about it. I began to learn CSS since 4 years back. My favorite designer who has implemented such excellent integration between CSS and her blog is Veerle’s Blog. It was her old short post about CSS vs tables that started me to understand the neat order of CSS. CSS make the designing process easy and quicker to finish.

I think it is about time to include CSS as one of the design element in the tutorials. The chances to get your blog or website stunning would depend so much on the process of integrating elements of visual design to your blog by CSS. As Web 2.0 begin to emerge in the beginning of 2006, many websites and blogs articles have been giving us clarity of how to visualize better Web 2.0 style. You will need to take a look of some Web 2.0 design resources before we get in to our today’s tutorial. When you use one of those resources, please credit the original designers for appreciation and read his or her design copyright before you apply them to your design.Certain design elements which are frequently implemented on Web 2.0 themes are:1.

It is hard to imagine sales skyrocketing only because something is simple, stripped down and easy to use. As companies are looking to push the limits of technology and users are grasping to understand the technology provided to them somewhere in the middle frustration sets in. Just as you learn to learn a new cell phone, computer or camcorder some new innovation sets in and you have to start over. Amazingly a near child’s camcorder toy called the Flip has cornered 13% of the camcorder market only because it is simple. To operate you simply turn on the camcorder and press the button. There is no zoom, no red eye, nothing special at all. For a grand total of around $180 dollars a person can take simple camcorder shots of up to 60 minutes and down load them on the computer.Why Does Simplici

Most of the business web sites have a white background, plain text and a classic standard design. The graphics perfectly match the written content, and there is no need for mismatching and misleading elements. A simple web design is much more beneficial for the clients as well as for the web site owners. It takes much less time while downloading and runs at a faster speed than the complicated web sites. Such web sites are much more interactive and able to give quicker responses. A web site with a simple design takes less time in building and if it needs to be re-built, it can be done in not much time. In addition to that, a web site with a simple web design will consume less bandwidth and server disk space, thus saving both time and money. The eCreeds® Web Solution Team eCreeds® We

I was intrigued by fellow blogger Mark Graf's recent post about how snow tends to simplify scenes that would otherwise be quite disorganized and distracting; morphing a scene that would be difficult to photograph into something that looks much more appealing in a two dimensional image. Have a look at that interesting post if you haven't had a chance to read it.After reading Mark's post, I found myself wondering if I could use snow to simplify an image even further....right down to bare graphic shapes. I would obviously have to look for very specific, uncluttered, and focal scenes (by which I mean picking out a small area of landscape that had very basic graphical qualities).As I have mentioned many times before, I am not very much of a cold weather person, but I thought this would motivate

Simplicity has always been the basis of good design, and adding a garden fountain is no exception. Besides, good garden design is nearly as easy as it is simple! It’s when you complicate things that issues arise. You have only a few things to worry with when planning to add a garden fountain to landscape your home. They are: 1) A source of electricity 2) The placement area; and 3) How to create a harmonious landscape around your new water feature. Creative solving of these basic problems will beautify your home and greatly improve its beauty and value. Penciled plans are simple to prepare, easy to repair and worth their weight in gold when it's time to install new the new planters, statuary, and green material around your water fountain. The first things you need are several large sheets

Photography is about simplicity. Keep it simple and you get your message across. But how often do we get a simple picture? And what is a simple picture? From what the masters say, the image should be uncluttered, clean with all other elements and background not competing with your main subject. Easier said than done! And it takes a lot of practice to get that oh so simple image! Come to think of it, I am still honing myself. I don't even know if the photo above I took in Lake Sebu, South Cotabato would pass the art of simplicity. Ah well, pursuing this passion for photography requires learning from experience, knowledge from experts, and having a discerning eye.

Whether they are making or losing money in the market, traders know that trading is first and last a mental game. When your system makes you money, can you stay out of its way so that it can continue to do so? And when your system inevitably suffers drawdowns, can you remain on the sidelines and not act like a belligerent parent at a Little League baseball game?Richard Dennis, who co-founded the legendary Turtle Trading System with William Eckhardt, once remarked that he believed that he could publish the entire then-secret Turtle Trading methodology in the newspaper and it wouldn't make a difference.Why? Because most people cannot follow the rules. And this was not because the rules were especially complex. It was because human beings are especially -- and perhaps in some ways, unnecessarily -- complex.We see the same thing when it comes to other challenges people have, whether it is in dieting and weight loss or quitting smoking. At this point in time, there are few people who do no

`The ability to simplify means to eliminate the unnecessary so that the necessary may speak.’ Hans Hofmann Simplicity is something that is a challenge. I know the times when my creativity has been clouded and difficult to access have been when I have moved away from simplicity in my life. One of my greatest joys was when I moved from Sydney to The Gold Coast. I was offered a teaching job on The Coast if I could be available in two weeks. I had just returned from The Coast, it was winter and walking on the beach in winter had opened my heart to a new way of living. I said yes, put my place on the market, sold or gave away all I could, put the rest in my car and headed North. What a freedom I felt, everything I needed was in that car, at that moment I was not hindered by possessions or place. The world soon crowded in again, but it left a sense of something I have aspired to since, a place where I was beyond the need for those securities and in which I could access creativity with

`Just living is not enough said the Butterfly, one must have sunshine, freedom and a little flower.’ Hans Christian Anderson. The Butterfly knew something most of us do not. We don’t need a lot to be happy. We have a greater flow of `The Creative Spirit’ in our lives with simplicity. Look around you and think of the energy and time spent in collecting and caring for possessions. How much is what you truely need and how much is what you think you should have. We don’t need a lot to create with power and strength. What we need is a state of mind, a state of spirit. Society is clogged down with `objects’ that need to be paid for and cared for, but there is a line between need and greed and when that line is blurred `The Creative Spirit’ in our work and lives is quickly impeded. Our lives all too easily become blocked by objects and the freedom and joy that nourishes creativity is lost. I know it is not easy to keep things simple, but for discovering the power that is in `The

Model was not included in last month's recall of 1 million cribsAuthorities in Pineville, Missouri, say a 4-month-old girl has died in a Simplicity Inc. 4-in-1 bassinet that was not part of last month's recall of 1 million Simplicity and Graco cribs.B.J. Goodwin, McDonald County coroner, said Katelynn Marie Simon died Sept. 29 of “accidental positional asphyxiation” after she was caught between the rail of the bassinet and the mattress, The Joplin Globe reported.Local officials said they contacted the U.S. Consumer Product Safety Commission (CPSC) immediately.“We filed a report with them the first day,” deputy sheriff Jeff Sutherland said, the Globe reported. “We wanted to get them involved as quickly as possible to get this thing (bassinet) off the market.”Link to complete story: http://www.consumeraffairs.com/news04/2007/10/simplicity_death.html ~Sandy G.

Great marketing is simple (but not easy). It communicates obvious value to a customer. It should be a no-brainer. It’s even easier when the product or service does its own marketing. Breath mints for construction workers and automotive maintenance engineers is not obvious. Until now. Wrench Mints changes that. “When your breath is broke… Fix it!” The cap slides off using a pretty cool packaging technique. Suddenly it’s cool for tough guys to have fresh breath. And the stars are noticing. By happen stance, I met Wrench Mints Founder Eddie Rubin in Southern California the weekend preceding CEA. He showed me these mints, and as a marketer I could not help but feel inspired by the clever, yet simple value proposition Wrench Mints offers. It’s just a reminder to me that even though we live in a new world of “advanced marketing,” nothing works like a simple, unique message that delivers epiphanies whenever someone sees it. Work to make mar
