Spiritualité. The New Experiences. Rigged Presidential “Debates” Amidst the Supine Media. The three upcoming so-called presidential debates (actually parallel interviews) between Obama and Romney show the pathetic mainstream campaign press for what it is – a mass of dittoheads desperately awaiting gaffes or some visual irregularity by any of the candidates. The press certainly does not demand elementary material from the candidates such as the secret debate contract negotiated by the Obama and Romney campaigns that controls the Commission on Presidential Debates (CPD), the campaigns’ corporate offspring.

A similar secret contract between George W. Bush and John Kerry in 2004, obtained by George Farah, executive director of Open Debates ( www.opendebates.org ) showed just how the two Parties rig the debate process. This year voters are not allowed to know about the current backroom fix between Obama and Romney. Farah revealed more. Substantively, the supine press applies its own rules. I know Farah.

The 2011 All Souls Procession Weekend-Nov. 5/6, 2011 » History. The All Souls Procession is perhaps one of the most important, inclusive and authentic public ceremonies in North America today. The Procession had its beginnings in 1990 with a ritualistic performance piece created by local artist Susan Johnson, who was grieving the passing of her father.

Inspired by Mexico’s Dia de los Muertos holiday, Johnson felt she should honor her father in celebration and creativity. The performance was very well received and many artists were inspired to continue growing the Procession into its modern incarnation. Today we find ourselves organizing over 35,000 participants on the streets of downtown Tucson for a two-mile long human-powered procession that ends in the finalizing action of burning a large urn filled with the hopes, offerings and wishes of the public for those who have passed. “Festal Culture” is the expression and fulfillment of core human needs through public celebration, ceremony, and ritual.

If you loved the beautiful DIY wedding this morning and Nata’s gorgeous paper flower bouquets, you are in luck as Nata is sharing how she crafted them with us! She was inspired by a template created by Morgan Levine on Martha Stewart (as was I in the flowers I created for this styled shoot). I just love that this basic idea has inspired different brides to create their own version of giant paper flowers – you might remember these equally awesome giant paper flowers from this wedding I shared last year. :) Thanks so much Nata for sharing how you created your giant pink paper rose + special thanks to Studio Castillero for the photos of the DIY + her wedding! Materials (to make one giant rose) Step 1: Cut the petals Cut 5-6 teardrop petals and 15-6 heart-shaped petals from the petal colored crepe paper.

IMPORTANT: Crepe paper is directional so it matters which way you’re cutting the paper. Repeat until all of your petals are cut Step 2: Cut the leaves + calyx Step 3: Make the rose stem. Design. wash. rinse. repeat.: freebie :: fortune. I still get nice comments from reader's who've recently discovered last year's Valentine's freebie, which is so much fun. But it's kindof hard to top that! So this year i thought i'd create something a bit more quick and easy for those of us last minute givers. This fortune cookie project is just the ticket. A simple circle of patterned paper, adhesive, and a message are all that is needed to create a unique gift for your loved ones. For a complete package, pick up a chinese take-out box container from your local craft or paper store and fill with your fortune cookies and a favorite treat. quick, easy, voila!

Folded Rose Tutorial. Polly Wiggins, a quilling friend in Kansas, encrusted this paper mache heart with beautiful folded roses and fringed flowers. I'm drawn to the subtle, old fashioned shades she chose, perhaps because they remind me of a silky-soft comforter my great grandmother made years and years ago. If you've been steering clear of folded roses because they seem too complicated, fear not. Just a few supplies and repetitious steps, and you'll soon realize they're really quite simple. Supplies: Quilling paper - any width will work, but 3/8 inch or 1/4 inch are used most commonly. Directions: 1. 3. 4. 5. The next three pictures show the fold/roll motion in progress... the first picture is immediately after the first fold, while rolling.

Farther along - left hand is lowering the strip; right hand is still rolling the tool. A little farther... Now it's time to fold and roll again. Tip: Make a new fold just as soon as you've finished rolling the previous one. Second fold/roll has been completed. 6. 7. A Fuller Explanation - Amy C. Edmondson.
