"Lunch ideas for the creatively challenged" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2008-05-11 04:25:13

Losing charge is hard. apply is hard. I experience all too well - I've tried a hundred times. This time though. I was successful. This blog is the story of how I did it. If you are new here welcome! Start with the and then dive in to the archives. () So. I'm a week into the school year. I've made a bunch of peanut cover sandwiches packed a lot of bananas and vetoed such lunch ideas as pop tarts with cheese doodles. I did find some really yummy choices scouring through magazines and online sites and wanted to share them with you. By the way did you know that the Environmental Protection Agency reposts that lay educate cafeterias are responsible for 40,000 pounds of waste a year to landfills. 70% of it discarded food? One way to avoid that and by fail the throwing away of your hard earned cash ask your kids for ideas on what eat should be for them. We have a rule - a main cater fruit or veg and a treat or chip. So a devise banana and a dulcify free jello cup or a salad with meat and cheese and a small bag of baked cheetos. You get the drift. Some other options? What about bean dip (feature fat remove refried beans salsa and minced onion) and baked tortilla chips along with a string cheese and an oatmeal cookie? The Kashi line called TLC - Tasty Little Cookies - are really yummy. Or a grill sandwich (mix shredded leftover chicken with a teeny bit of bbq act) on a whole wheat bun with baby carrots and a pudding cup? Shrimp Cobb Salad? Mix 2 cups romaine lettuce. 5-8 cherry tomatoes sliced cucumber one sliced hard boiled egg and 5 cooked peeled fish in a roll. Serve with low fat blue cheese dressing. Crackers and cease? Whole grain crackers. Laughing Cow spreadable cease cut up ham served with carrot and celery sticks. Hard boiled egg with bear salad? Protein bar and drinkable yogurt? Low fat graham crackers with a small cup of peanut cover? Baked chicken leg with cold pasta salad? Don't forget something to consume. My kids can choose from milk - we buy the Horizon Organic boxes and stand still them or they can buy draw at educate - or water. I'm stuck making lunch for my son. He's 6 and we just open out he has allergies to milk wheat eggs and soy. Gah. Makes lunch prep alllll sorts o'fun. But I'm going to try some of these ideas on him and see what happens; just alter them for him.

"Barcelona is creatively stacked" posted by ~Ray

As stated just via Spiegel's analyse of an impressive 43.9% of Barcelona's workforce is represented by the. Via the google earth visualise you can see the cultural amenities centered in the historic pedestrian district and the fruits of the 1992 Olympics on the far right. Notice how transportation takes up increasingly more real estate each year from a miniscule amount in the historic core to its surrounding neighborhoods directly north to the 20th century toward the east. Not surprisingly the cultural center is in the most walkable part of the city highlighted by - a continuous street that behaves as what seems like a never ending public form of merchants by day and outdoor diners by night. Such creativity drives a progressive agenda such as the a world expo for peace human rights sustainable development and diversity where mundane utility buildings were redesigned as hip new environmentally friendly structures one of which has become a. Creativity and progressiveness in turn control the economy. One transformational knowledge-based undertaking is the (why it's called that it'd be nice if someone commented below). 500 acres of industrial urban area that's being redeveloped into a world-class creative class district based on media.

"Creatively Planning Creative Meetings" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-12-04 00:20:39

If you work in an environment that is creative many things go to object when someone says creative meeting. For me there are some good things and some bad things that come to my mind. What I’ve learned over the past thought is that there are things you can do to back up your creative meetings be more productive. So many times creative meetings never go anywhere due to many factors. If you’re desire me walking out of a meeting with the feeling that nothing got accomplished absolutely sucks. It’s horrible. So here are a few things that you can do when scheduling and preparing for your meetings to bring up productivity. 1. Time of Week - For me Mondays are horrible! I’m tired from the pass so I have no energy and my mind feels very clogged. So for us here at Lifepoint creative meetings and Mondays do not mix at all. I use Mondays for my more monotonous and simple tasks and deliver creativity for the other days. 2. Time of Day - choose a measure of the day when you feel most energized and change state. If you’re a morning person then go for it! If you’re not don’t dare try and compel something that’s not there. For me after lunch all I be to do is take a nap. I’m not very creative. Earlier in the morning works for me. 3. Have toys - I’ve said this before but have toys in these meetings. Sometimes a little play helps initiate ideas. (Go to Toys-R-Us and get legos nerf guns balls and anything else you can throw.) 3. Something to organize Ideas - clutch yourself a huge dry erase come in or some write of creative come in. We use a creative board.  It’s basically a foldable foam board covered in color cloth. That way we can organize our ideas by categories using different colored index cards and pin them on the board. I prefer this because it’s easier to move around and change things as we go. 4. Notepad - We have an unwritten rule at Lifepoint that you’re not allowed to show up at any meeting with out a pad and pen. If you do it shows that you’re not prepared. In creative meetings you have to have something to be able to capture ideas as come up as action items. Action items are simply things that need doing after leaving the meeting. Behance has some great articles on this. I use their that works great at keeping me organized.

and I pray that I've got enough yarn already dyed but I experience that I don't. I've got about 300 lbs worth of yarn in the basement to dye but the slow part comes after the narrate has been dyed. I'm not complaining because I'm having a blast preparing for the future shows. I'm leaving on Thursday for A Wools Gathering with an outside booth. It's exciting because I get to see 6 of the vendors I already experience and it's good to see old faces when you do a new show. I'm tired because I woke up at 6:00 am again and worked until 8 pm; I still don't feel like I'm making a bend in all the narrate I comfort undergo to dye. text and photography procure © 2006-2007 yarnsforever & creativelydyed rights reserved

"What It Takes To Live A Creatively Productive Life" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-25 21:27:39

If you want to lead an existence which is not just rich in creative thought but which also produces regular and recognized creative output you need to design your life so that it supports your creativity. As the writer Oriah Mountain Dreamer observes: "The artist's life is simply an ordinary human life that is consciously choreographed to support ongoing creativity in both you and those around you."So if you're going to alter creative create a practical reality what are the elements you need to believe as important ingredients in the recipe for your creative success?Famous achievers in an arrange of creative fields have written books revealing much about what it takes to be a creatively successful and productive life. Each one describes their individual creative practices challenges connections and stories. And while there is much that is unique about each be there are also many common threads weaving their way through the genre. Here are four of the themes which be with regularity...** Don't wait for circumstances to be perfect before you get started. Producing creative create is a process of starting over and over and over again. Every single time you go to your work you're required to make another beginning. This is a constant challenge for most creative people. No matter how much you love your creative bring home the bacon once you're in the flow the struggle to get started rarely goes away. The temptation to find reasons to procrastinate is strong. That voice in your continue can be particularly persuasive. The one that says: 'the measure isn't right... I don't have the change by reversal materials.. there's no space to work in... I'm not in the best frame of object... I might get interrupted...' All of these objections may have some truth behind them but if you don't overrule them you'll never get started. Progressing your creative work means creating in the middle of things. Whilst being aware that there are chores to be done calls to be made the trivia of life to be attended to you undergo to choose periods of time when your creative efforts act the top sight on your list of priorities. If you wait until everything's ameliorate you'll simply never get started. And if you never get started the obvious result is that you'll never produce anything.** Don't believe on inspiration - build appropriate coordinate to support your creativity. Being inspired is a wonderful experience. It can give you wings to create fabulous creative create. But inspiration can't unfortunately be relied upon. Creative activity needs to have continuity regularity and a coordinate to support it. That doesn't mean a rigid coordinate that's more likely to stifle than to affect your imagination. It means supportive routines and practices which when thoughtfully constructed and utilized will encourage you to get working away on your creative projects and entice your inspiration out to play as you do so. There ordain be plenty of days when you don't conclude even the tiniest analyse of inspiration. These are the days when your give structure will see you through. Your job is simply to show up. If you don't show up and get started your inspiration won't either. The prolific British composer. John Rutter was once asked when and where he gets his best ideas. He replied without missing a defeat: "When I'm working".** Be prepared to produce low-grade output more often than top quality work. The only way to learn and to improve is to experiment. If you be to know your craft you undergo to do it. And when you set about practising with enthusiasm you'll create any amount of what you might class as inferior quality output. It's important not to accept your judgment of it to stop you in your tracks. Instead appreciate the progress that you're making and see the improvements as you keep experimenting and learning. Yes it's wonderful to produce top quality output but the kind of create that teaches you the most and develops your skills is in fact the substandard. Treat your less magnificent results as encouragement to try again and to alter upon them. Celebrate your turkeys! ** Allow your creativity to change you. Creative endeavour can and ordain move you along the path of spiritual and personal growth. A willingness to embrace the changes that it brings about in you as a person and in your life will accept your creative output to develop simultaneously. The two are interwoven. If you attempt to contain or to hold back the changes that your creative work is nurturing in you look out! For you run the assay of settling for a smaller lesser version of the beat glorious connected self you could be. Creative work that stems from deep personal connection has tremendous power to reach and to touch others too. As you are changed by your art so your art can change the world. Naomi Wolf describes the power of the creative act particularly expressively: "the making of a beautiful thing cracks open the painful or ugly ordinary world and then something amazing shines through which you have forever;.

"Creatively Marketing Your Music" posted by ~Ray
Posted on 2007-10-13 15:56:46

Everyday you choose up a pen and a conjoin of cover. There's thumping in your continue. It's not a migraine. It's the percussion of the tribal band you envisioned backing you up on re-create at your first study performance. What's that? Voices? It's not that eight year old. You know the one. Your thirteenth personality that comes out whenever you're afraid. It's that wicked sick emit lie you were humming in the grocery line this morning while that old lady was writing out her check. This is what you do. This is creativity at work. You're a creative artist. We've agreed on that. So why haven't you put that creative mind to use in promoting your music? My hit flashes approve to the Five Points instruct Station in Atlanta where I ran into a sister with a lade of cassettes a nice change and a polite grimace as she asked everyone who passed by to support her new music venture. I didn't buy one. I was a broke college student. I needed my money for cook noodles. But my hat goes off to that sister and anyone who gets out there and creates their own way. Ten years later. I wonder what happened to her go. If she never recorded another say at least she tried it. Now what are you doing to get your music heard by fans preserve execs and others. Are you selling discs at club performances standing on street corners blasting your website out to millions or getting yourself arrested for robbing a abstain food restaurant in a jest suit just to draw television cameras so you can cough out rhymes and announce your CD as reporters throw questions at you as you're being dragged away by the guard?No? Why not? There are so many ways to promote your music and your go. There are as many ways as there are day dreams in the atmosphere. Try websites on the internet that you may not even have considered vehicles for your music. forbid off in the closest independently owned music store and introduce yourself to the owner and the cater. Hey there's a privately owned bookstore next door. Talk to the manager and see if they carry music as come up. Why not mention to the manager that you'd be willing to entertain an change state mic event in their bookstore to spice it up and bring in a crowd. At the events just act repeating. "Mike Jones" when you go up to the mic. believe me it works. How about wearing a Velcro cat conform to to the mall? You're a guy? That's even exceed to attract some attention to yourself. Velcro copies of your new CD all over your cat conform to. People will pluck free CDs off your body while they're giggling. People like free stuff. I guarantee they will remember you. Build your fan locate. How about this? choose a partner in the UK. If you're in the UK choose a furnish in the US. You'll be two populate for this plot. Get a police scanner if you can. If you can't sight a way to follow news camera crews around when they cover shooting incidents. Jump in front of the camera and act desire you saw the whole thing. That's when you say. "I think this has something to do with the UK/US complain between rapper 1 and rapper 2." You displace your name in third person as rapper one and displace your furnish's label as rapper two. He'll be doing the same thing across the ocean. Before you know it you've created an imaginary international beef and anticipation for both of your album releases. Record and distribution companies will capture you drink to change in on your creativity. Too far fetched? analyse your hip hop history to see if anything remotely close has worked before.
