Stained Negatives.           We suppose that by far the greater majority of stained negatives which are sent to us for a diagnosis of the defect represent the result of incomplete fixation.

Copper foiled stained glass is a very versatile form of construction for making stained glass. Panels can be made with very intricate designs and detail. The possibilities are almost endless. More: continued here

A zinc frame on stained glass panels is essential for structure and rigidity. The zinc frame is added once the design is cut, foiled and soldered. The process of adding a zinc frame is accomplished by following seven steps. More: continued here

The basic tools to begin stained glass include a cutter, grinder, groziers, running pliers, copper foil and soldering iron with temperature controller. There are basically 10 steps to making stained glass. More: continued here

.PEOPLE THROW AWAY SANITARY PADS, I THROW AWAY UNDERWEARS!I'm not too sure how many girls/women that are menstruating did this, but I'm pretty sure I did this quite often in my secondary school days.This is a clean underwear, sorry but I have nothing more interesting of a panty with stain to show you, so let's just make do with tat & start using imagination.I started menstruating when I was 12 yrs old. (how time flies, now I have to include my toes for counting d' years back)So, when I was in secondary school times, I did stained my panties a couple of times. But, you know how being young + lazy + scared dirty = throw away my panties. Yah, that's how it derived soiled reddish panties landing into the rubbish chute. Alright, at least I admit I am not the type who throws it out of the wi

There are two ways to make stained glass, leaded or copper foiled. The major difference between the two is in the construction. With leaded stained glass, the glass is fitted into channels of lead came. In contrast, copper foiled stained glass is constructed by wrapping each piece of glass with copper foil. Leaded stained glass historically is found in churches. It was during the Victoria Era where leaded stained glass was introduced into homes and has remained a popular method of constructing stained glass ever since. Foiled stained glass was mastered by Tiffany in the early 1900’s and soon after became a popular method for creating stained glass.Common Questions:Is one method better than the other? he simple answer is no. A better answer is that it depends on the artist and the design.

PARLIAMENTARIANS from Indonesia's leading anti-graft party have handed back $120,000 in alleged bribes, but only after another MP was arrested for receiving a related pay-off to clear a protected forest. The move is another blow to the credibility of Indonesia's politicians, with a range of Anti-Corruption Commission investigations revealing bribing MPs remains routine. A senior member of the Islamic-orientated Prosperous Justice Party (PKS), Suswono, said the $120,000 was paid to party members on parliament's commission overseeing forestry, of which he is the deputy chairman. The money came from regional officials, including the Bintan regency, he said. Mr Suswono, whose party rose to prominence on an anti-corruption platform, said all members of his commission should be questioned over t

'Cookies are made of butter and love'.Norwegian Proverb Festive, fascinating & delicious cookies!A cut-out cookie made out of my favourite basic sugar cookie dough. Then smaller bits are cut-out and filled with broken pieces of hard-boiled candy, and put in to bake. In a while you can see the candy melting beautifully into the cut-outs & the cookie baking to a perfect brown. I make these a couple of times in the winter months; in summer they tend to get sticky due to humidity levels being high. They involve an extra bit of effort, otherwise would love to make them more often! Ingredients:Butter – ¾ cup (room temp)Castor Sugar- 1 cup (I grind sugar crystals in my coffee grinder)Egg – 1 / beatenFlour – 2 ½ cupsSalt – 1 pinchVanilla Essence/Extract – 1 tspMethod: Beat the butter and sugar till fluffy and light.

I make a ton of tomato sauce foods. It’s one of my favorite foods so I cook with it often. Pasta, mini pizzas, chili, if it can be made with tomato sauce I’ll do it. I also tend to cook in big batches and freeze half of what I made for meals later. The two combined means most of my tupperware had red stains across them. I’ve seen some dish soaps advertised to cut out the red staining from tupperware. It sounds great, but I worry about using chemicals that could stick around and get onto the food. Not that plastic is so great anyway, but until I have the money to buy glass I’ll keep using my plastic containers. So what to do about the tomato sauce staining? Sunlight! Seriously. In the same way the sun bleaches bones white and gets rid of the stains on my cloth diapers leaving my tupperware outside in the sun for the day removes most or all of the red stain. It’s so easy I thought for certain it would never work. To my surprise it did! Just half a day in dir

This is a VVV exclusive, as the story hasn’t been told anywhere else. I heard from a friend that Liberace had designed, but never lived in one of the Tudor Townhomes in Forest Hills. I dug a little deeper, and got introduced to the owners, who graciously allowed the first look at the newly restored home. According to my sources, though unverified, Liberace was on the original board of the association, helped with the design and architecture of the complex, and then  rebuilt the model home to his own specs. There’s a all kinds of discrepancies and inaccuracies between the assessors records and the Review Journal Story that I’ve posted below. Liberace sold the property to Millie Kaufman in 1982, but I see no sign of Millie having sold it back to Liberace, yet his estate was the seller of the property in 1987. This sale is where our story actually begins. Liberace died on February 4, 1987. In the spring of that year, there was an auction. The current owners s

(Click image to enlarge) Ever since i moved into my mid-terraced house and noticed the sad and plain looking sun window above the front door, i wanted to put a nice piece of stained glass in there as a replacement as a nice focal point for the front of the house. I was looking at getting a piece of stained glass done professionally, but was then scared off by some of the prices that i was being quoted.  My fiancee suggested that i have a go at doing it myself and seeing that i am ok at art i decided to give it a try; now i haven’t done any sort of stained glass work before and i looked at it with a daunting enthusiasm, and seeing that the piece of glass above my front door was 80 inches x 40 inches in size - it would be a big task.

Once there were four men who stood beneath a stained glass window. Their backs were toward the window, though, so they never saw the glass--they could only see the light that passed through. As the sun rose, the men each saw a different color of light: red, yellow, blue, and green. The men argued with each other over what color the light was, each one believing the color he experienced was the one true color of the light.The men continued to argue as the sun rose higher and higher. As the sun climbed higher into the sky the light through the window also intensified, for the window was also a lens. The men argued over the true nature of the light, oblivious to the increasing heat. Soon the heat became too much, and all four men shriveled and died.

Saliva released a new album titled "Blood Stained Love Story". The single, titled "Ladies & Gentlemen" has been released to radio stations and has made it to #1 on the US Mainstream Rock charts. It can be heard on their MySpace profile. Read full story about [Saliva]According to Scott, that's precisely the idea behind the title of the new album. "It's a metaphor for life, the music industry, the mentality of "If it bleeds it leads.'" Saliva serves as a perfect success story of that legendary Darwinian concept of survival. This is especially true of Josey and the band, who've survived many a night of dangerous behavior to become Grammy-nominated performers of the highest order.
