How I stitch(in norwegian, sorry but it's easier for me)
Når du har lasta inn bildan, gå på Wiew & Modify, Stitch Photos. Velg bildan dine å åpne stitch. Deretter, når du har valgt arrange, KLIKK PÅ FORSTØRRELSESGLASSET, så bildan blir større. (hvertfall 2 gang, eller så du ser detaljer godt)
Drag images, men se Nøye på kor dem passer (se bildet, de delan som passer, e markert i rødt)
Her har æ valgt uten spesiell stein nederst, å en lyktestolpe øverst som æ bruker som "ankerpunkt" for at det skal bli en bra stitch. Det e litt fiklat å få det helt bra overlappa, men verdt det. Gjenta på alle blider i serien. Når du e fornøyd, klikk Merge.
Nu kan du å velge å klikke på Display Seams(de grønne boksan på bildet) for å se om du e fornøyd å at seams området ikke e for bredt.Om du synes det e det,dobbeltklikk på en Seam, så kan du Specify Overlapping Areas å fikle litt der.^^
Når du mener du e helt ferdig, klikk Save. Da kommer du hit, omtrent...
der kan du Save, Merge a New Area eller Adjust Image hvis du enda ikke e helt fornøyd men, æ e fornøyd med resultatet, så da e det bare å velge Save, så får du se den ferdige Stitchen. om du nu har Photoshop(eller nåkka llignandes), gå å lek med Sharpness å imagesize der, for de fleste Stitchan e veldig lang, uklar å tynn. Så e det bare å vase omkring til du e fornøyd, Lykke til.

A beautiful blog for dads
I stumbled upon this american blogsite for dads, where I just read a very lovely post, and with the authors kind permission, I am reposting it here. I wish all dads (and moms) out there would read this, and possibly, take to heart what the author says.
And here is the link to the site itself, also posted with permission, please have a look at it.
Clicky me!
" Maintain Their Innocence
With all the things that I try to teach my kids, I finally realized that there is something crucial they have to teach me. Acceptance. It is amazing to me how they totally lack the ability to prejudge somebody based on their label, status or category. They do not assume anything about another child because she is black or because he has two daddies. They treat each and every person based on the values they hold important. Now, granted, the values that a two year old may hold are probably not the best for us as adults to use for making decisions about people. But the point is, children treat each person equally and without preconception.
The question for me has become, “How do I preserve that sense of equality in my children?” I know that I have inherent prejudices within myself. I know that no matter how hard I try, I am immediately aware of the color of a person when they walk into a room. And even though my brother is gay and I have been closely associated with the gay community for many years, I make snap judgments about people when I learn that they are gay. I get nervous when a homeless person approaches me to ask for change. I instinctively check to make sure my wallet and other valuables are secure.
I am fully aware of this, yet I still do it each and every time I encounter somebody different from myself. And I know where it came from. I learned it growing up. Yes, in part from my parents who grew up in another time with different values, but also in school from my peers and from TV and people I saw on the streets. It was all around me growing up. And so, I picked up on it and repeated those thoughts and behaviors. So, now what do I do? How do I keep my children from learning these attitudes from me and the rest of the society around them?
I could ignore the stereotypes and prejudices I know they will encounter and hope they don’t notice. Or I could confront the problem head on. I think I’m going with the latter option. I will need to be constantly vigilant of my behavior, the behavior of my children and the behavior they may observe whether it be on TV or on the playground. I will need to point out examples of right and wrong behavior. If a child they don’t know arrives on the playground I will need to encourage them to invite that child into their play and take the opportunity to get to know somebody new. If they don’t click I won’t force them to be best friends, but I will encourage them to give each person a fair and equal chance. And if it doesn’t work out, to at least be respectful.
Eventually they will learn things like some men love other men. They are likely to encounter children who have two parents of the same gender. The thing I will want them to learn from meeting these families is that the important ingredient for making a family is love. For, with love, all things are possible.
They will learn that there are many different religions and ways to view God. I will teach them that within each religion resides the same basic message; God is a loving God and s/he wants us to love one another as we love ourselves. I will teach them that religion can be perverted by the lust for power, greed and hatred of men, but that if they love God and trust God, they will live a good and worthwhile life.
All in all, I want my children to maintain their innocence and their ability to welcome each person with no prejudice or expectations. It may mean that they experience pain and heartbreak on occasion, but I believe that it will expose them to much more love and possibility than they would experience otherwise. And in the process of trying to help them maintain their innocence, I hope that some of it will rub off on me."

It could be worse at work....
you could be one of these guys.
Taken From Lady Bunny Blog
For everyone who has ever had or given an evaluation - just remember, it could have been worse. These are actual quotes taken from Federal Government employee performance evaluations.
1. "Since my last report, this employee has reached rock-bottom and has started to dig."
2. "I would not allow this employee to breed."
3. "This employee is really not so much of a has-been, but more of a definite won't be."
4. "Works well when under constant supervision and cornered like a rat in a trap."
5. "When she opens her mouth, it seems that it is only to change feet."
6. "This young lady has delusions of adequacy."
7. "He sets low personal standards and then consistently fails to achieve them."
8. "This employee is depriving a village somewhere of an idiot."
9. "This employee should go far, and the sooner he starts, the better."
10. "Got a full 6-pack, but lacks the plastic thingy to hold it all together."
11. "A gross ignoramus -- 144 times worse than an ordinary ignoramus."
12. "He doesn't have ulcers, but he's a carrier."
15. "He's been working with glue too much."
16. "He would argue with a signpost."
17. "He brings a lot of joy whenever he leaves the room."
18. "When his IQ reaches 50, he should sell."
19. "If you see two people talking and one looks bored, he's the other one."
20. "A photographic memory but with the lens cover glued on."
21. "A prime candidate for natural de-selection."
22. "Donated his brain to science before he was done using it."
23. "Gates are down, the lights are flashing, but the train isn't coming."
24. "He's got two brains cells, one is lost and the other is out looking for it."
25. "If he were any more stupid, he'd have to be watered twice a week."
26. "If you give him a penny for his thoughts, you'd get change."
27.. "If you stand close enough to him, you can hear the ocean."
28. "It's hard to believe he beat out 1,000,000 other sperm."
29. "One neuron short of a synapse."
30. "Some drink from the fountain of knowledge; he only gargled."
31. "Takes him 2 hours to watch '60-minutes'."
32. "The wheel is turning, but the hamster is dead
