A good way to break up text in a Google Docs document is to add a vertical line. This guide will show you how.
Writing a document in Google Docs? You’ll be used to seeing big walls of text, but if you’re trying to write an engaging document, it doesn’t have to be this way.
Breaking up your document will make it easier to read and better for your readers. A good way to do this is by adding vertical lines, and there are a number of ways you can do this in Google Docs.
Here’s how to insert a vertical line in Google Docs.
How to Insert a Vertical Line in Google Docs Using the Drawing Tool
The drawing tool in Google Docs allows you to insert lines, shapes, text boxes, and images. You can use it to draw a vertical line that you can insert into your document.
To insert a vertical line using the Google Docs drawing tool:
- Open your document.
- Open the Insert menu.
- Hover over Drawing and select New.
- Select the Line tool.
- If it’s currently displaying one of the other line options such as arrows or curves, click on the downwards arrow next to the tool icon and select the Line option.
- Select where you want the line to start.
- Hold down Shift and drag straight down. This snaps your line to 15-degree increments which makes it easier to draw a completely vertical line. Let go of your mouse to insert your line.
- Select the Line Color tool to choose a different color for your line.
- Select the Line Weight tool to change the thickness of your line.
- The Line Style tool lets you create a dashed line if you wish. You can also use the Line Start and Line End tools to change the style of the ends of your line.
- When you’re happy with your line, click Save and Close.
- Your line will appear before or after your text. If you want it to appear within your text, you’ll need to change the text wrapping—click on your line and a menu will appear.
- Select Wrap Text to have the text wrap around your line.
- Press Break Text to have your line break the text up.
- Choose Behind Text or In Front of Text to have the line appear through the text.
- You can reposition your line by clicking on it and dragging it around.
Insert a Vertical Line in Google Docs Using Columns
If you want the text in your document to be in columns, you may want to insert a vertical line in Google Docs between two text columns.
To insert a vertical line using columns in Google Docs:
- Open your Google Docs document.
- Select the text you want to put into columns.
- Open the Format menu.
- Press Columns > More Options.
- Choose the number of columns you want and ensure that Line Between Columns is checked.
- Click Apply—your text will appear in columns with a vertical line between them.
Insert a Vertical Line in Google Docs Using Tables
Another way to achieve a similar effect is to use table borders to create a vertical line. The benefit of this method is that as you type more text, the vertical line will extend to match the amount of text.
To insert a vertical line in Google Docs using tables:
- Open the Insert menu.
- Hover over Table and drag out the number of rows and columns that you want.
- Click on any of the table borders except the one you want to leave in place.
- Hold down Shift and click on all the other borders except the one you want to appear in your document.
- Select the Border Width icon and choose 0 pt.
As you type in the cells of your table, the vertical line will grow as the cell increases in height. You can also click on the line and drag it to reposition the cell border.
Get Creative with Google Docs
Knowing how to insert a vertical line in Google Docs will break up your document text and allow you to write more creative documents. There are other ways to make your documents stand out in Google Docs, however.
For instance, you can add a border in Google Docs to frame your page. You can layer images in Google Docs to create complex visual elements. It’s even possible to combine your skills and make a book in Google Docs.

Welcome to StoriesEtc, a place where University of Wisconsin students can share their original works of creative writing with the community, whether it be poetry, short stories or anything in between. As a section dealing with the arts, it feels only natural to create an opportunity for students to share their creative talents.
With that being said, let’s meet this week’s contributor, Emily Neinfeldt:
The Badger Herald: Tell us about yourself. What’s your major? Year in school?
I’m a senior majoring in journalism and political science. I’m graduating in May, and I hope to get a job writing more long-form features at a magazine someday. I’m currently a managing editor at The Badger Herald.
BH: Define your writing, authorship and perspective.
For me, I always wrote creatively because it was something I really enjoyed. But when I began reporting news and writing features, it wasn’t just that I really enjoyed it — I felt what I was doing was really important, as well.
BH: When did you start writing creatively?
I think I started writing creatively in middle school, and when I came to UW, I wanted to be a creative writing major. Then when I began reporting news, creative writing kind of slipped away from me.
StoriesEtc: ‘The Invisible Hand’ offers personal take on depressionWelcome to StoriesEtc, a place where University of Wisconsin students can share their original works of creative writing with the Read…
BH: Talk about your creative process. What inspires you, and how do you get from an idea to a finished product?
I’ve always really enjoyed writing the opening scenes of novels, but I find it really hard to maintain inspiration to continue a project until it’s a finished product. Then when I began writing short stories, I found it much easier to stay inspired until I finished.
Here is a sample of Emily’s work:
It was sunny out, for the first time in nearly two weeks, and Magda was skipping her way home from kindergarten, ladybug lunchbox swinging in hand. It was warm today, warm enough that her mommy had packed her brand new pink sandals for her to wear.
“Spring’s coming Magda, don’t see you the birdie over there?” her daddy had said that morning, as she waited for the bus.
“What’s it doing?” she asked.
“Probably just looked for something to eat,” her daddy replied distractedly as he pulled his tie neat. “I’ve got to go now, Magda. Now listen, you’re going to your mom’s after school remember? Taking the bus and then walking from the bus stop?”
“Yes, Daddy,” she said.
Magda shook her head of curls back as she skipped over the crack in the sidewalk — wouldn’t wanna break her mommy’s back. As she made her next leap, a car pulled over onto the side of the road. Magda paused for a minute as she observed the car. The door swung open, and a man stuck his head out. He looked funny. His beard was bushy. Her daddy never had his beard like that.
“Hi there, sweetie. Whatcha doing?” he asked.
“Walkin’ home. I’m a big girl now. I’m 6. Timmy and Suzie and Rory are all 5, but not me. I’m 6,” Magda said proudly. Her mommy always said not to brag, but it was true! She was 6.
“Six, huh. Hey, that’s a pretty cool lunchbox you got there. Could I see it?” Magda immediately took a step forward before pausing for a second, glancing around nervously. Her mommy always said to never talk to strangers but she also always said to share with others. Her lunchbox was pretty cool. The least she could do was share it.
Viola glanced at the clock. 3:05 p.m. Magda was only five minutes late but, well, five minutes seemed like a lot now that she thought about it. Viola paced from the kitchen to the front door, peeking out the window and glancing down the street before making her way back to the kitchen. With another glance at the florescent green numbers — now reading 3:06 p.m. — she slipped her sandals on and stepped out onto the front porch. Her watch read 3:07 p.m. She anxiously made her way down the street toward the bus stop. It was only a five minute walk from the house and Magda made the trek every Monday through Thursday without a hitch. Viola reached the bus stop — not a thing looked amiss. The street was calm. The wind blew gently.
Feeling a slight hysteria rising in her mind, Viola briskly walked back to the house, willing herself not to panic, not to run. With trembling fingers she dialed the school.
Viola’s mouth was bone dry and she had to swallow twice before she managed to get the words out.
“Hi, this is Viola Marks calling. My daughter Magda hasn’t made it home on the bus today.”
“Alright Ms. Marks. The procedure for this situation is to contact Magda’s teacher and the bus company before getting in contact with the police if we can’t find her. I will call you when I have any more information,” the receptionist replied, her voice calm, collected.
Viola nodded before realizing she was on the phone.
“Yes,” she replied, her voice thin and weak.
“Yes, alright,” she tried again, only coming off slightly stronger. The only reply was a dial tone, and as she placed the phone back in its holder she started to feel light-headed. Viola made her way over to the couch in the living room. As she sat down she willed herself not to cry. Another wave of dizziness rushed through Viola and she braced her hand on the arm of the couch as her vision started to dim.
A loud pounding startled Viola awake several hours later. She ran her fingers through her hair as she made her way to the front entrance. Pulling the heavy oak door aside revealed two police officers. “Is this the home of Magda Marks?”
“Yes. Have you found my daughter?”
To Viola amazement, Magda darted forward from behind one of the officers and disappeared into the house. Viola’s mouth dropped in elation. By the time she could focus on the officers again, she only caught the last few words, “… I’m so sorry ma’am.”
Viola was puzzled at the words, but nevertheless, she nodded at the officers, thanking them one last time. She caught a flash of their concerned looks before easing the door shut.
Putting it out of her mind, Viola turned to Magda and scooped her up in a tight hug, despite Magda’s limp arms refusing to return the affection.
“Oh Magda honey, I’m so glad you’re home. What happened, why didn’t you take the bus?”
“I did take the bus, Mommy.”
“You did? Well then why didn’t you make it home?” Viola asked, trying to make sense of the situation. Magda had no answer for her though, merely shrugging before skipping off to her room.
Shaking her head, Viola headed into the kitchen to make Magda a snack. As she passed the phone, she noticed there were quite a few missed calls flashing on the answering machine. With an inquisitive look on her face, she pressed the “play all” button.
“Viola, it’s James. The school just called. Why didn’t you let me know Magda never made it home?”
“It’s me again. Please call me back. This is important Viola.”
“Viola, please just answer your phone. I can’t imagine what you could possibly be doing besides sitting next to the phone waiting for a call from the police.”
Viola couldn’t imagine what Magda’s father was so worried out. She had gotten home safe after all. He was always doing that — worrying. The phone suddenly let out another shrill ring, startling Viola from her slump over the counter.
“Hello?” she answered, a questioning tone to her voice.
“Viola, thank God,” James rushed out before pausing and reconsidering his words. “How … how are you doing?”
“Fine,” Viola responded. Why was everyone acting so strangely all of a sudden? Magda was home safe and all Viola wanted to do was make them a snack and have a nice long cuddle with her daughter. She certainly did not want to be dealing with concerned looks from police officers or strange questions from her ex.
“Are … do you need someone to come over for a bit? I mean, I’m sure it’s just as hard for you as it is for me,” James responded.
“No. I’m fine James, everything is perfectly alright. Did you need something?” Viola asked, hoping he would say no and she could hang up.
“No. I guess … I just wanted to make sure you were alright. Let me know if you need anything,” James replied.
“Alright. Bye now,” Viola said before hitting “end call” and replacing the phone back into its holder. Now that that was all behind her she could just focus on Magda again.
When she woke the next morning, it was to a voicemail from her boss.
“I heard about what happened Viola and I’m so sorry. You can take the next few weeks off. Just let me know when you’re feeling up to coming back. I know it must be hard.”
Viola was pleased at the offer but also surprised. This all seemed a little excessive when she considered the school’s call from the night before, explaining how Magda would be unenrolled and her belongings would be dropped off shortly. Nevertheless, she wasn’t going to turn down the opportunity to spend more time with Magda.
The next few weeks passed in a flood of giggling and grinning Magda. Spending all day at home with her little girl was more than she could have hoped for. Viola could hardly believe how wonderful everything had turned out after that fateful day. Monday morning, however, saw her preparing for work for the first time in what seemed like ages. It was time to brave the world again.
“Hi James, this is Viola. I was wondering if you were up to looking after Magda today. I know you haven’t seen her in weeks,” Viola questioned down the phone.
“Viola, that’s not funny. I can’t believe you’d say something like that,” James replied before the line cut off. Viola stood there staring at the phone in her hand. How rude. Not even a goodbye. Well if he didn’t want to watch Magda then Viola had no choice. She lifted the phone back to her ear after dialing the office.
“Boston Corporate,” the voice at the other end greeted.
“Hi, Jan. This is Viola. I’m just called to give my notice. I’ve got no one to watch Magda, and I think it would be better for me to just take some time off and care for her.”
There was a long pause from Jan before, “All right, Viola. You just take a while to rest. Don’t worry about a thing.”
Viola was just putting several dishes in the sink when she heard the doorbell ring. She made her way over slowly, tucking a gray lock of hair behind her ear as she went. She just couldn’t move around as fast anymore. The heavy oak was almost too much for her to handle, but she managed. “Ah. Dr. Sheeran. Come in, come in.”
“Hello, Viola,” Dr. Sheeran greeted when they were all settled in the living room. “How are you today?”
“Oh, I’m doing just fine,” Viola replied.
“And … how is Magda?”
“She’s doing just lovely. She gotten so interested in painting lately. I need to remember to stop by the store and pick up some more colors.”
“Viola … how old is Magda?” Dr. Sheeran asked. What a silly question.
“You know that, Doctor. Magda’s 6,” Viola laughed.

Planning a trip in June to Avignon, les Baux de Provence and the Ardeches
I have been following all the amazing threads for Provence and I am now planning our own trip for two weeks in mid-June. We have booked three days in Avignon at a B&B on the island just above the city (le Domaine de Rhodes), followed by a week at another B&B (Taven Residences, recommended by CH) in les Baux de Provence and then a few days in the Ardeche (Chateau Balazuc). We are hazily thinking of a few days near the Vaison la Romaine and then Cassis and the coast for a few days.
I am planning on lunches in Avignon at les Halles and at the Collection Lambert, and dinner the first night at Au Tout Petit in Avignon. We will start exploring the towns near Avignon and hopefully eat the second night in Arles at Rabanel or La Chassgnette. The third night I am imagining dinner at L'Arome in Bonnieux and then we are off to les Baux de Provence the next day. We plan to explore the Luberon from our base in les Baux de Provence and following CH, will eat at le Bistrot du Paradou in Paradou. I read about La Cabro d'Or and Oustau de Baumaniere in Les Baux - are they worth coming back into town for, or should we eat at other small towns such as St Remy? Is the drive back to Les Baux something one can do easily after a dinner elsewhere? Will try to eat at Mas Tourteron in Gordes and L'Oustalet in Gigondas. After that we go to the Ardeche, but I am beginning to wonder if that is a good idea? I haven't read much on this site about it and I am not sure if it is the best way to spend our time? We are then considering a splurge at the Chateau de Rochegude from which to explore the Vaison la Romaine. After that a few days in Cassis and then home. Any input would be great, especially regarding the Ardeche as that is the one I am most uncertain about.
Your restaurant picks are good ones. I am just very confused by the one long paragraph of info. I must have misunderstood. There seems to be long drives covering north and south Provence in one day. There are also unspoken misgivings about Ardèche. Could you clarify?
"We plan to explore the Luberon from our base in les Baux de Provence and following CH, will eat at le Bistrot du Paradou in Paradou."
Le Bistrot du Paradou is very good. But Provence is a large area, separated by the Luberon hills, with mostly country roads. If you want to hang out in the Luberon, why not stay in the Luberon. If you want to hang out in the St Rémy-Arles area - just as lovely but different, - why not stay there, insead of driving all day long and spending so little time out of the car and experiencing.
"I read about La Cabro d'Or and Oustau de Baumaniere in Les Baux - are they worth coming back into town for,"
They are very good, but the answer to your question depends on the distance and whether there is something also excellent nearby. If you are in Bonnieux, a dinner at Capelongue would be just as big a delight and would make more sense than the long drive back in the dark.
Lastly may I ask you to help help us and put more paragraph separators in stead containing all your info in one paragraph ?
Also may I ask you to be more specific about the duration of your stays ? Thank you very much.
I must have missed the planned duration of your stay in Ardèche. Could you give me the info again. Sorry.
I must have understood wrong. Baumanière and the Luberon - and back - all sound like one day. I hope not. You would end up driving much more often than you get out of the car.
Ardèche is a beautiful. People say tha Ardèche and Drome are like Provence before Provence becomes too known. There are many good eateries in Ardèche like Hotel Faurie (maybe closed currently) and Mas de la Madeleine. But Ardèche, like Provence , covers a sprawling area. In order to enjoye it, or to enjoy anything, you need that one most expensive commodity: time.
"or should we eat at other small towns such as St Remy?"
St Rémy is lovely but does not have a good concentraiton of good eats as, say, Arles or the golden Triangle of Bonnieux-Goult-Saignon in the Luberon.
"Is the drive back to Les Baux something one can do easily after a dinner elsewhere?"
"Will try to eat at Mas Tourteron in Gordes and L'Oustalet in Gigondas."
That's is a long drive back to Les Baux. Are you saying you want to be based in Les Baux? Sorry you must have said so in your post. My eyesight does not allow me to read one long single paragraph well.
"After that we go to the Ardeche, but I am beginning to wonder if that is a good idea?"
Yes. Maybe. Maybe not. How much time do you have?
There was a medieval festival in around May or June in Les Baux when i visited. They were selling a bull sandwich and french fries at food stalls....the best french fries I've ever had to this day. I don't know what they cooked in it but maybe in duck fat? It was just so so good. yumm...
I agree that you appear to be doing a lot of excess traveling that could be cut down with better planning. Also you need to clarify your time-frame. You state you'll be traveling for 2 weeks, but with a week at Riboto de Taven (Taven Résidences) and 3 days in Avignon, that leaves 4 days to cover the Ardèche, Rochegude, Cassis, plus getting to and from airports (Nice? Marseille? Paris?). Have I misunderstood as well?
Anyway, here are a few comments on what you have so far:
Avignon: There are a few small venues to grab a bite in les Halles, but our preference is to have fresh oysters with a glass of wine at the "oyster monger" to be found in one of the corners of the marché, not far from the public toilets. (Don't let that discourage you. They're not very obvious.) He will reserve a table for you, should you wish to check out the other vendors first. Keep in mind that parking within or along the ramparts of Avignon is impossible unless you go directly to a parking lot. We usually head to the Parking du Palais des Papes.
Arles/les Baux & beyond: It would make more sense to visit Arles while you are at Taven in Les Baux. (Are you staying in the troglodyte room? Very cool...) From there, besides having dinner at the Bistrot du Paradou, I'd recommend dinner in the lovely gardens of the Château d'Estoublon - technically in Fontvielle, but really about halfway between le Paradou & Fontvielle. (Try not to miss the amazing experience of this:
http://carrieres-lumieres.com/fr/home while staying in les Baux.) If you're not staying in the troglodyte room (which I see has a minimum stay of one week) and can shorten your stay there, you should consider Parigi's suggestion & stay a few of those days in Bonnieux or Lourmarin. Make dinner at the Bastide de Capelongue your real splurge. It will be more expensive than dinner at Château de Rochegude, but Edouard Loubet's restaurant is at an entirely different level. Plus the site is fabulous. At the other end of the spectrum, you could also have dinner at le Castelas in Sivèrgues (about which much has been written in CH) while staying in the Luberon.
Lastly you should study the various restaurants' days of operation in planning where to eat. Some close SUN/MON, some MON/TUE, TUE/WED, WED/THU....
I'm so sorry I wasn't clear - my apologies, and here's a better version of our trip in mid-June, as it stands now.
Day 1-3, (Fri-Mon):
We are arriving in Marseille on a Friday from Spain, and have booked a B&B in Avignon (Domaine de la Rhodes on the l'Île de la Barthelasse) for the first three days (Friday, Saturday and Sunday). We are hoping to use this as a base to explore Avignon and the Isle de la sorgue and are hoping the driving to and from the B&B isn't difficult with traffic?
Eat: Au Tout Petit, Avignon
L'Arome, Capelongue, Bonnieux
Le Vivier, l'Isle sur la sorgue
Day 4-9, (Mon-Sat):
Stay in Les Baux de Provence at the Taven Residences (which I think have been re-designed and sadly no longer offer the troglodyte room?), and will use this to explore the Luberon valley, going to market day in St Remy on Wed.
Eat: le Bistrot du Paradou, Paradou
La Cabro d'Or & Oustau de Baumanier, les Baux
Chez Serge, Carpentras
Les Bories, Gordes en Provence
Les Florets, Gigondas
Day 10-13, (Sat-Tues):
Stay in the Ardeche at the Chateau de Balazuc (which looks so interesting, both the environment and the Chateau)
Eat: Saturday night in the chateau for the group dinner
Sunday and Monday still undetermined
Day 14-16, (Tues-Thurs): Chateau de Rochegude to explore the Vaison la Romaine wine country
(I haven't planned this yet)
Eat: one night in the chateau
Day 17-19, (Thurs-Sat) Somewhere in Cassis or near Aix
(still trying to plan this)
Day 20, (Sat): Home, leaving from Marseille
I am having second thoughts about how we've planned this trip, paying a lot of attention to the advice to stay in one area and not move around too much, but also wanting the opportunity to explore different areas. Thank you for your input and I hope this helps!!
As I said before, the restaurant picks are good ones.The way you choose to base yourself and drive around is … not user-friendly for yourself. You have 3 weeks. You can have 3 bases in a much more leisurely setup.
1. The first base can logically be south Provence, which means south of the Luberon hills. St Rémy or le Cabro d'Or is lovely and geographically makes sense.
Avignon is a pleasant commute town. It is not as magical as many of the places you want to zigzag to in passing. I would skip Avignon, making it a place for picking up a car and maybe having one meal. Or, if you are tired from schlepping up from Spain, dinner one night in Avignon. Then out to the real Provence.
First, 5 days in south Provence. Group all your nearby restaurants in those days.
2. Then a week based in the Luberon, which has a comparable concentration of cultural and culinary wealth as southern Provence, if not more. Base in Bonnieux for example. Group restaurants in Bonnieux, Gordges, Ile sur, etc. in that week.
3. Then drive to Balazuc, Ardlèche. On your way, lunch at your pick at Gigondas.
4. Then 5 days around Ardèche.
Then drive down to Cassis or nearby for the last couple of days.
This should allow you to cover all the places without zigzagging all the time.
Interesting that you're planning to explore the "Vaison la Romaine wine country" but not Chateauneuf du Pape or Gigondas?
If there is some way to get from you island in Avignon to the Old City without a car, I'd do that. Old Avignon is very walkable, and not having a car to deal with would be a plus. The streets are very narrow and parking is pricy.
Why are you going to the Ardeche? That's a rugged area for canoeing, hiking, and car rallies - and the roads really twist and turn. I've been down the Ardeche twice in a canoe - not for amateurs!
By far the best table up that way is the Auberge et Clos des Cimes in Saint-Bonnet-le-Froid.
BTW I am a former travel consultant for independent travelers to France and Belgium, but mostly I post here in Wine.
I would gently counter that the Ardeche is also beautiful winding mountain roads and spectacular high valleys with orchards and farms. Like many designations, it is huge and varied. We have driven gorges until we bored of the serpentines you describe.
At the same time, i completely agree that a visit to this magnificent area deserves time of its own, not a 72 hour attachment to an already short visit to Provence.
"Ardèche is nothing but a rugged area for canoeing."
Ardèche is so much more than a river for exercise that I do not even know how to begin.
Ardèche has a wealth of concentration of perched medieval villages that are not unlike those in the Luberon of Provence, except those in Ardèche is lesser known.
Just Balazuc alone, - to name the only village, and a listed plus beau village itself, which the OP happens to name, - it is very close to the medieval jewel of a town of Largentière, plus other listed plus beaux villages/villages de caractère such as Vogüé, Mirabel, Alba la Romaine, Rochemaure, St Thomé, St Montant. I am only naming those that are nearby that I can name in my head without looking at the map, and there are more. Having been to Ardèche several times, I who even like canoening found the river and the gorges to be the least interesting part of Ardèche. If I had gone insane and concentrated only those parts, yes I would have been bored. Same thing in Paris: if I were to go out to look for boredom, I am sure I'd find it.
Indeed, as Mangeur said, the problem is that a 3-day stay means one is missing most of it surrounding beauty, architecture, history, the food and the food…
In fact, there is a much greater number of nearby points of interest in Balazuc than, say, the town of Collioure which I also love and where I am again renting a house this year.
I didn't say just canoeing. i also noted hiking and car rallies. It's rugged; The roads are difficult, and there aren't many people there (the young are leaving) which ought to tell you something.
Every region in France has its atouts, but I think other regions have more to offer. I never sent one client there.
PS I forgot gathering chestnuts.and a big bicycle race.
I have done no hiking in Ardèche. Still, enjoyed the villages so much that I ha to go back to see those I did not see in the 1st week's stay. Even though every region in France has its own wealth to offer, the Dordogne, Provence, Ardèche happen to be the three regions with the most listed plus beaux villages and villages de caractères.
Thank you for the comments on the Ardeche. I am wondering if anyone has any restaurant recommendations for the Ardeche, in addition to the Clos des Cimes (already mentioned.) Some friends like the Auberge de Montfleury and La Table de Lea, both in postal code 07170 (Saint Germain, and Villeneuve de Berg.
Thank you, everyone, for your wonderful feedback. We have listened closely and have revised our itinerary seeing Parigi's pointed and exptremely helpful suggestions both to me and others who have tried to fit in everything into a short trip.
Currently, this is our plan, staying only in B&B's:
Arrive in Marseilles from Spain and rent a car
- stay 3 days outside Avignon (my husband is really committed to this despite suggestions to shorten it)
- 4 days at les Baux
- 5 days in Gordes
-2 days in Cassis
- home to California, leaving from Marseilles.
We divided up our time between les Baux and Gordes so that we could concentrate on the areas around each town and not have to drive far for the dinners we plan (outlined below).Now I'll concentrate on grouping the dinners around our stays, and any suggestions for modifications or additions are appreciated! Thank you so much, everyone, for the invaluable feedback. This has been surprisingly difficult to plan and to understand the true distances. We will have to explore the Ardeche another time and another trip. Thanks again!
Good decision. So assuming you are still starting out in Avignon on a Friday, here are some suggestions:
Avignon: Your first night you might be too tired to travel far for dinner, so consider le Bercail, which is not far from your B&B on the Ile de de la Barthelasse. It gets mixed reviews - we've only eaten there once and that was a few years ago - but the view of Avignon is lovely and would be a nice introduction to Provence. On the Sunday, go early to l'Ile-sur-la-Sorgue for the market, followed by lunch at le Vivier (which is closed for dinner on Sundays).
MON: dine at le Cabro d'Or or Oustau de Baumanier (it looks like both are open on Monday evenings)
TUE: dinner at le Bistrot du Paradou (closed SUN/MON)
WED:: dinner at Jean-luc Rabanel in Arles (closed MON/TUE)
THU: dinner at le Mas du Capoun in Mollégès (closed TUE/WED)
FRI & SAT: For something different (delicious roast pig) maybe go to le Castelas in Sivèrgues one night. For the other night, many CHers will suggest la Bartavelle in Goult. As a third option, there's Babouchka for Moroccan cuisine in Coustellet - the lamb tagine is wonderful...if you'd like a change of pace.
SUN: dinner at the Auberge des Carrières in les Taillades (closed MON)
MON: dinner at l'Arôme in Bonnieux (Closed WED/THU)
TUE: dinner at the Bastide de Capelongue in Bonnieux (closed WED)
Be sure to book in advance to make sure you are not turned away at the door.
A little update:
I who have always been a vocal fan of Bartavelle, did not have an outstanding meal there last time (last September). The dinner was competent, it delivered, sans plus. Let's hope we had chanced upon an off night.
The ferme Le Castelas though was still a very enjoyable experience.
Well, we're "off" of la Bartavelle as well - for reasons that have nothing to do with the food, but instead the shabby treatment by the hostess/owner. (Besides us, she lost 6 other customers.) But since it gets such rave reviews (not counting your last one, which might in fact be part of a 'trend'), I thought it should at least be mentioned. I'm very curious to see what other new visitors have to say about it.
Oh my - thank you so much for the wonderful and thoughrtful day-by-day recommendations!! I had begun combing CH for ideas and was compliling a list - you have done all that for me! I'm surprised by the negative Bartavelle comments as that name has been prominent in so many reviews.Thank you again, and I will post ideas as they come and will certainly review our eating when we go/return from our trip.
Parigi, we dined at Bartavelle in October because of your (and others as well) strong recommendation. It seems from these comments that they have had some off nights in the past season. The evening we were there, they were definitely on their game, as we had a wonderful dinner - each course was equally excellent - and the service was attentive and perfectly paced.
Bartavelle was only surpassed by our dinner the following evening at Bastide de Capelongue, which was far more expensive and complex. However, with a better quality/price ratio, La Bartavelle comes out on top. They do have specific times for calling to reserve, which is understandable for a small husband and wife restaurant. Happily, Le Clos du Buis, the guesthouse where we stayed in nearby Bonnieux, made our reservations for us.
I reviewed it here:http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/9218...
Well, let me add that I suggested le Bercail ONLY if you think you will be too tired to travel a bit. It's the view - not the food - that you'd go for. Just order simple dishes. As for la Bartavelle, if you're staying in Goult it seems the logical place to go (in spite of my personal objection & Parigi's recent experience) - but they make it difficult to reserve a table. You must phone them between the hours of 9am and noon THU thru MON, so you would have to call after midnight California time. Another option while in Goult is la Ferme de la Huppe in Gordes (on the outskirts of the village). I think they are closed SUN so FRI or SAT would work there too.
There are always other places with different appeals. Cassis
1. is hard to drive in and out of, therefore you might as well stay inside the nice seaside village;
2. gives you a nice contraste of landscape from what you will have been visiting;
3. is near your final destination, which streamlines your last-day stress of returning car etc.
You'll love it. Time to minimize self-second-guessing. :)
Have a look at Bandol... just 30 km east of Cassis ... it can be a bit Côte d'Azur-ish but the wine culture saves it from many of the clichés. For restos, l'Esperance and l'Atelier du Goût are my faves but there are a handful of others that range from good to very good in Bandol town and the artsy Ile de Bendor And very enjoyable market Tuesday morning along the main quai of the port.
Wow, the trip is almost upon us (mid-june) and I am about to call/write to restaurants. So, to finalize our itinerary and your recommendations:
Friday: Arrive in Avignon after flying in from Madrid (the trip is getting even more exciting!) staying at Domaine de Rhodes.
Friday dinner: le Bercail
Saturday: explore Avignon (or should we just head out to market day in Arles?)...dinner undecided (Jean-Luc Rabanel in Arles or le Petit Peche?)
Sunday: Explore Avignon or go to the market at l'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue ? followed by lunch at Vivier....dinner undecided? (Au Tout Petit? Cuisine du Dimanche?)
Monday: Leave for Les Baux staying at Taven Residence, dinner at le Cabro d'Or
Tuesday: Market day at Vaison-la-Romaine, Dinner at Bistrot du Paradou
Wednesday: Dinner? (if haven't gone to Rabanel, do that now?) or le Vieux Bistrot? (with a walk before dinner to Mur de la Peste)
Thursday: Dinner at le Mas du Capoun in Molleges
Friday, move on to Luberon staying at Le Mas Cache, see Friday market. Dinner at ferme le Castelas or La Bartavelle in Goult
Saturday, hike the route to Dentelles de Montmirail, dinner, one of the above (ferme or Bartavelle)
Sunday: Auberge des Carrieres in les Taillades
Monday: l'Arome in Bonnieux
Tues: Bastide de Capelongue
Wed, move to Cassis: eat at Restaurant le Bonaparte
Friday, back to Spain for flight home
Whew! Before I start calling and e-mailing, are there any modifications or suggestions? This is sounding all quite wonderful!
"Saturday: explore Avignon (or should we just head out to market day in Arles?)"
Morning market Arles. You seem to need to see a great number of sights every day. If you need to move on, afternoon you can see Pont du Gard.
"...dinner undecided (Jean-Luc Rabanel in Arles or le Petit Peche?)"
"Sunday: Explore Avignon or go to the market at l'Isle-sur-la-Sorgue ?"
Avignon. If antsy again, the village Castillon du Gard.
Or visit Ménerbes or Lacoste. You have already visited one market, why visit a second one that is mainly photogenic ?
You can get a picnic from Maison Gouin and picnic in one of the 2 beautiful villages there.
"Tuesday: Market day at Vaison-la-Romaine, Dinner at Bistrot du Paradou"
It is a long drive and back, to visit a market very much like Isle sur la Sorgue. I am getting a headache from your north-south zigzag, sorriest. Aren't you staying in Les Baux, why not visit the beautiful villages near there instead of spending so much time driving ? St Rémy, Glanum, Eygalières are all neaby and are just as charming as Vaison. It will occupy you all day, the your dinner at nearby Paradou.
"Wednesday: Dinner? (if haven't gone to Rabanel, do that now?) or le Vieux Bistrot? (with a walk before dinner to Mur de la Peste)"
My husband and I are nuts about archeology and the odd historical vestiges. We took a walk on the Mur de la peste. It was much less exciting than I thought. First the "mur" was about 3-foot tall. I was expecting some kind of Provençal Great Wall, my fault. The landscape is also quite uninteresting. What was interesting was to come upon the few creepy drawings of the masked doctor caring for the sick.
If you veto Le Mur de la Peste, nearby alternatives can be the beautiful village of Venasque, and the picture-perfect Abbaye de Sénanque.
"Friday, move on to Luberon staying at Le Mas Cache, see Friday market. Dinner at ferme le Castelas or La Bartavelle in Goult"
For someone staying in a series of hotels, you are visiting a great number of similar markets. If you truly like markets, you may want to try to see markets that are more distinctive from each other.
Have a great time.
Just went to Avignon and ate at Fou de Fafa, owned by an English couple, cooking good french. Also a tiny hole in the wall called L'Epice and Love. Perhaps not trendy nor fancy but great meals with wonderful food, wine, and ambience. Also went to Les Hales for oysters, very good, and at the wine bars in the market you can bring in the cheese or charcrute that you bought elsewhere in the market. We also stayed in La Ciotat, which has very little great food, but on a hike to the Figurolles Calanque, a must if you like nature, we ate lunch at La Calanque du Figurolle. A true treat carved in the side of a Calanque with a view of the water and wonderful food and wine. Can't wait to go back
<Leave for Les Baux staying at Taven Residence, dinner at le Cabro d'Or>
Aren't you having dinner at Riboto de Taven? They cook gorgeous food but only for those who stay with them.
Can hardly believe I read you love archaeology, but are not planning to go to Glanum. It's a stone's throw from St. Remy de Provence, and not far from Les Baux.
Your trip's maturing into a fantastic one! Have a great trip,and would enjoy reading your thoughts on these places on your return.
A comment on Ardeche: On our last visit a year ago we were based just outside of Vaison-la-Romaine for couple of weeks. We took a memorable trip north from here to stay a night in a chambre d'hôtes called La ferme du château in St-martin-en-Vercors. Former lawyer-turned gracious host and accomplished cook, Christiane runs a simple but warm and comfortable place with her faithful dog. We were the only couple for the night (predicted snow and it did), but her dinner and the breakfast was as comforting and soul satisfying as grandma's kitchen. It's a beautiful region of France that we are likely to choose as our next base. If you have not, see the movie Le Papillon by Muyl which captures the beauty of this region well.
Kurtis, another address for your Ardeche notebook: over the river and southwest of Valence, 20 minutes "uphill" from St, Laurent du Pape is beautifully situated Hameau de La Mure. Nice rooms and a convivial table d'hote (but not on Tuesday when Olivier rests by flying around the area in his plane). Stunning setting, with a pool that looks as if it empties into the sky.
Well, here is a late update to an extraordinary trip. Thank you all for helping to make it that way!
First stop: Started in Avignon, staying outside of the city at a B&B Domaine de Rhodes. Charming and easily accessible to the city by bus. Dinner down the street at La Ferme was not memorable, but dinner at L'Essential was extraordinary - not to be missed. Had their 4-course tasting menu and the service, ambiance and food were fabulous. Went to Les Halles and this alone was worth a trip to Avignon, but we loved the city as well.
Next stop was Les Baux, staying at les Residence Taven. We loved our room, the pool, and our hosts and we were disappointed they no longer cook for guests. However, breakfast was beautiful with homemade jams and breads and wonderful sightseeing and restaurant recs. Dinner at Cabro d'Or was amazing - quite formal with a beautiful outdoor patio for summer dining with views of swans on a lake, only to be surpassed by a sublime tasting menu with paired wines. Service was friendly and professional and three hours later we stumbled back to our gorgeous room with the town and cliffs towering over us. The weekly market at St Remy was wonderful and reminded us what summer in Provence is really about. The ruins at Glanum aren't to be missed and were followed up with a raucous and outstanding meal at le Paradou. There was a dramatic thunderstorm throughout dinner, with hail and lightening, but the place was packed and the chicken sublime with all the wine you can drink as a part of the prix fixe, and the World Cup playing in the background. Next night we had dinner at le Petite Jaune in St Remy with charmingly friendly service and good, but not great food.
Next stop Luberon, at a beautiful, if remote B&B near Goult (le Mas Cache)and dinner at la Bartavelle, justifiably a favorite of chowhound and now mine as well. Dinner on a secluded and garlanded patio, starting with pigeon followed by lamb and ending with a pistachio layered biscuit. Service was amiable and ended with a lovely conversation with the owner/chef. Next evening was dinner at Bastide de Capalongue which was beautiful and leant itself to the gastronomy tasting menu. The presentation and execution was breathtaking but not always successful and a little precious for my taste, but the setting was truly spectacular. Next day we stumbled onto the museum of truffles in Menerbes and had an amazing truffle omelette with wine chosen by the owner who has a wine cellar/shop in the basement. The views were lovely and it was a special way to relax for a few hours.
We ended our trip in Cassis and plan on coming back next year to les Baux, which won our hearts, and renting a home for a month to truly take in all that we saw and tasted. Thank you, all, for your great guidance and good advice!
Le Tout Petit in Avignon is now closed. When I called a few weeks ago the person answering the phone said it was not longer open. Yesterday I walked by the old location and there was another business there.

Pakistan women team’s star batter Javeria Khan has tested positive for COVID-19.
Opener batter Javeria’s COVID-19 test came out positive after blood samples were taken ahead of the training camp.
She has been advised a further week’s rest so that she can completely recover after an anti-bodies test revealed she had recently recuperated from COVID-19.
Pakistan Cricket Board (PCB) on Monday announced that the women’s team is all set to attend the training camp commencing from Tuesday for next month’s South Africa tour after 26 players and 12 officials returned their second negative COVID-19 results.
This means it could be trouble for the national women cricket team ahead of the South Africa tour.
Furthermore, it emerges on Tuesday that Sidra Ameen has been left stranded in the UK after the recent travel restrictions.

The Speaker of the House of Representatives, Femi Gbajabiamila, said on Monday he would never be part of any bill to gag the media in Nigeria.
He said though the Nigerian constitution guarantees freedom of speech and expression, it is however, not absolute because the government also has a duty to perform under the law to ensure good governance in the country.
Two bills seeking the amendment of the Nigerian Press Council (NPC) and the National Broadcasting Commission (NBC) are currently in the lower legislative chambers.
The bills which were sponsored by a member of the House, Segun Odebunmi, are aimed at regulating the operations of the media in Nigeria.
Gbajabiamila said: “Let me say this. I will not be part of any bill that will seek to gag the press. I want to say it loud and clear if that will be of any consolation. No bill will come to the floor of the House that seeks to gag the press because the press is supposed to be the voice of the people.
“However, I hold very strongly to the view that there is press freedom and there is freedom of expression. There has always been and there will always be. But what we call freedom of expression; and I think it is important to listen to one another, understand each other so that we can make progress as a nation.
“There is nowhere in the world where freedom of expression is absolute. Freedom of expression is limited to the extent that it does not affect the other person’s freedom. Freedom of expression is not absolute and that is made abundantly clear in the constitution itself.
“If you go to section 45 of our constitution, it tells you how the government is allowed to limit that freedom for the sake of health and security, and this is written in black and white. Whilst I will not allow the gagging of the press, I worry when at every time when the National Assembly tries to promulgate a law with the best of intention, everybody descends on the National Assembly.
“For some, it is an immediate reaction, some just jump on the bandwagon without knowing the details or the issues.
“I am using this Press Council bill as an example. I called the proponent of the bill and ask him, what is going on, what have you done, and what is in this bill. He tried to break it down. I have not read it myself and I will confess to that. But I will read it in detail in the next couple of days.
“I just have a general idea of the content. He told me that he had a meeting with all the stakeholders. I wasn’t present at the meeting, he said what they wanted was not acceptable to him. Whatever provisions they have a problem with the bill; whatever provisions that are in that bill that is inimical to the operations of the press, remove it and replace it with something else so that everybody will be happy.”

1. Field of the Invention
The present invention relates generally to a drill template, and more particularly, to an adjustable drill template which can be configured to conform to a plurality of different hole patterns.
2. Background Information
In many industries, it is difficult to replace existing components with newer ones due to the difficulty in accurately aligning and drilling mounting holes in the newer component. This is especially true in the aerospace industry. In general, aerospace personnel have difficulty in properly aligning and drilling mounting holes in new components such as aircraft skins when replacing existing ones. For large production runs, special production tools may be designed to properly align and form the mounting holes on new components. However, these production tools can be expensive to design and build. Thus, for limited or small production runs, these production tools are cost prohibitive.
If production tools are cost prohibitive, mounting holes may be formed by back drilling. Back drilling is performed by laying an existing component over the new component. Mounting holes are then marked and drilled. However, back drilling is a slow process and is fairly inaccurate. Furthermore, many mounting holes are not accessible to back drilling due to the location of the mounting hole, the size/shape of the component, etc. If back drilling cannot be performed, mounting holes are generally laid out by hand and hand drilled using drill blocks or eggcups. This technique is a very slow and inaccurate process. Inaccurate drilling of mounting holes may lead to the scrapping of the component.
Therefore, it would be desirable to provide a drill template that overcomes the above problems. The drill template would be adjustable and could be configured to conform to a plurality of different hole patterns.
An adjustable drill template has a base plate. A plurality of drill blocks are removably coupled to the base plate. A locking device is coupled to each of the plurality of drill blocks.
The features, functions, and advantages can be achieved independently in various embodiments of the present inventions or may be combined in yet other embodiments.
The present invention will become more fully understood from the detailed description and the accompanying drawings, wherein:
With reference now to the Figures, and in particular with reference to
The base plate 12 holds a plurality of drill blocks 14. The drill blocks 14 are movably coupled to the base plate 12. The drill blocks 14 can move along the length of the base plate 12 so that the drill blocks 14 can be configured to conform to a desired hole pattern and then locked into position.
The base plate 12 has a first channel 16 formed therein. The first channel 16 runs a majority of the length of the base plate 12 and along a central area of the width of the base plate 12. The first channel 16 allows a drill bit to pass through the base plate 12 in order to drill a hole in a desired object.
The base plate 12 may have a track 18. The drill blocks 14 move in the track 18 allowing the drill blocks 14 to slide along the base plate 12. The track 18 further keeps the drill blocks 14 from sliding off of the base plate 12. In the embodiment depicted in
Referring now to
As shown in
Referring now to
Referring now to
The body member 24 has a slot 26. The slot 26 runs horizontally along the width of the body member 24. The slot 26 is wide enough to allow the base plates 12 and 12′ to move through the slot 26 so that the drill blocks 14 can move along the length of the base plate 12.
A void 28 is formed on the bottom surface of the body member 24. The void 28 is centrally located on the bottom surface of the block 24 and runs up to the slot 26. An opening 30 is formed in the top surface of the body member 24. The opening 30 is centrally located on the top surface of the body member 24 and above the void 28. The opening 30 is formed in the top surface of the body member 24 and runs though the body member 24 into the void 28. The void 28 opening 30 allows a drill bit to pass through the body member 24 in order to drill a hole in a desired object.
A bushing 40 is placed in the opening 30. The bushing 40 is generally a metal bushing 40. The bushing 40 is used to guide the drill bit through the opening 30 in order to drill a hole in a desired object. The bushing 40 may be a removable bushing 40. This will allow different size bushings 40 to be placed in the opening 30 to accommodate different size drill bits. Alternatively, a second bushing may be inserted into the bushing 40 to accommodate different size drill bits.
A pair of holes 42 is formed in the top surface of the body member 24. The pair of holes 42 extends through the top surface of the body member 24, through the slot 26 and out the bottom surface of the body member 24. The pair of holes 42 is formed so that the opening 30 is positioned between pair of holes 42.
A locking device 44 is placed in each hole 42. The locking devices 44 are used to secure the drill blocks 14 to the base plate 12 and to lock the drill blocks 14 to lock the base plate 12. In accordance with one embodiment, the locking device 44 has each hole 42 threaded. A threaded insert 42B may be used to prevent the threads from stripping. A locking bolt 46 is placed in each threaded hole 42. Each locking bolt 46 is placed in each threaded hole 42, so that one of the locking bolts 46 will extend through each of the pair of channels 20 to secure the drill blocks 14 to the base plate 12. Alternatively, each locking bolt 46 is placed in each threaded hole 42, so that one of the locking bolts 46 will secure each rail 22 in the drill block 14. The drill blocks 14 can move along the length of the rails 22 so that the drill template 10 can be configured to conform to a plurality of different hole patterns. By rotating the locking bolt 46 in a first direction, the locking bolt 46 will lock the drill blocks 14 to the base plate 12 or to each rail 22. By rotating the locking bolt 46 in a second direction, the locking bolt 46 will allow the drill blocks 14 to slide along the base plate 12 or along each rail 22 so that the drill block 14 can be configured to a desired hole pattern. By continuing to rotate the locking bolt 46 in the second direction, the locking bolt 46 may be removed from the drill blocks 14 so that the drill block 14 may be removed from the base plate 12.
Once each drill block 14 is placed in a desired location, the locking bolts 44 are rotated to lock the drill blocks 14 to the base plate 12 or to each rail 22. The drill template 10 is then placed on a desired object to where the desired hole pattern is to be laid.
The drill template 10 is secured to the object by a clamping device 48 to prevent the drill template 10 from moving. Any type of clamping device 48 may be used. For example, a “C” clamp, a claw clamp, a face clamp, and the like may be used. The listing of the aforementioned is given as an example and should not be seen as to limit the scope of the present invention. In accordance with one embodiment, the clamping device 48 is a pin clamp 48′. The pin clamp 48′ is positioned through the opening 30 as shown in
A drill 49 is then secured to a desired drill block 14 using a brace 50. A second bushing 40A is coupled to the end of the brace 50. The second bushing 40A is then inserted into the first bushing 40. The brace 50 and the second bushing 40A are used to keep the drill bit 52 approximately perpendicular to the surface to be drilled. Alternatively, the brace 50 is coupled to removable bushing 40 which is then inserted into the opening 30. The drill 48 is then lowered so that the drill bit 52 is inserted into the bushing 40 of the desired drill block 14 in order to drill a hole in a desired object. The process is then repeated for the remaining drill blocks 14.
This disclosure provides exemplary embodiments of the present invention. The scope of the present invention is not limited by these exemplary embodiments. Numerous variations, whether explicitly provided for by the specification or implied by the specification, such as variations in structure, dimension, type of material and manufacturing process may be implemented by one of skill in the art in view of this disclosure.

Joanna Clark, San Juan Capistrano
Global warming is no longer a philosophical threat, no longer a future threat. It is happening now. Global warming has brought about major changes in global climate and, as a result of these changes, California is experiencing the worst drought in our recorded history, and it could get worse. Researchers from NASA, Cornell and Columbia universities are predicting an 80 percent chance of a mega drought if climate change continues unabated.
If we are going to save the future for our children and grandchildren, the City Councils of San Juan Capistrano, San Clemente and Dana Point need to weigh how their decisions can be harmful or helpful in addressing climate change. Local decisions can have a cumulative effect on state, national and global climate change consequences: drought, storm severity, wild fires, ocean acidification and sea level rise.
NASA reported that California has a 11 trillion gallon water deficit. Scientists are reporting that we could be out of water in the next 12 to 18 months. Drought, population growth and a growing reliance on unconventional well stimulation technologies known as hydraulic fracturing (fracking), hi-rate gravel packing, and acidizing pose a significant threat to our food and water supply.
Western States Petroleum Association has spent more than $23,987,896 to help pass legislation that will result in the expansion of hydraulic fracturing in Orange County and throughout the state. Hydraulic fracturing leaves behind millions of gallons of toxic waste water that must be safely disposed of, and that is the problem. Present disposal technologies present a significant threat to our water and food supplies. How do you like your coffee, with or without benzene?
Consequently each council needs to take a serious look at how hydraulic fracturing is affecting the air we breath, the water we drink and the food we eat.
Not having $23,987,896 to buy a seat at the table in Sacramento, we can get a seat if we follow the New York’s lead. More than 200 cities and townships in New York banned fracking within their city limits forcing the governor to ban the procedure statewide. San Juan Capistrano, San Clemente and Dana Point should join the 20 cities and counties in California that have enacted, or are in the process of enacting, bans on fracking. (See addendum.)
We also need to begin addressing global warming and climate change head-on. Here are four areas where the city could have an impact on our children and grandchildren’s future. In addition to banning hydraulic fracturing within our respective city limits, each council needs to:
- Make our cities neighborhood electric vehicle (NEV)- and electric vehicle (EVs)-friendly through projects like those in San Francisco and San Diego. (San Diego’s Solar-to-EV project, one of the first of its kind, established charging stations that use energy from the sun to directly charge plug-in EVs, store solar power for future use, and provide renewable energy to the surrounding community.)
- Adopt the leadership in energy and environmental design (LEED) standards. LEED-certified spaces use less energy and water resources, saving money for families, businesses and taxpayers, while reducing carbon emissions and creating a healthier environment for residents, workers and the larger community. Join 28 other cities, including Los Angeles, San Diego and San Francisco in requiring LEED certification of buildings.
- Join Sebastopol and Lancaster in requiring all new construction—commercial and residential—to include solar systems that must provide a minimum of two watts of power per square foot or offset 75 percent of the structure’s electricity needs.
Please, let’s not sit this one out. Join the scores of cities, states and countries in helping prevent human-caused catastrophes.

There are so many new shows premiering every day that we don’t have the time to watch them all. But yes, there was a day, nothing slipped from us. I feel bad for the younger generation, that amid the flood of content, they probably have missed one of the greatest shows that defined history and created a path for the future. Now as the world goes into quarantine lockdown. These are the best shows you can watch.
To me, The Wire will always be the greatest TV series. The Wire was so realistic that they didn’t even hire beautiful looking actors to keep things down to the ground and real. The glimpse into both the sides of the law is absolutely raw and true. It is better than Breaking Bad, yes I said it.
I fall short of words while describing the brilliance of this show. I hate that young folks don’t even know about the greatest Mafia show ever. The blend of Psychology and gangsters is a pure joy to watch. You just need to watch the first episode, you will binge watch it I’m sure.
Band Of Brothers
It is one of the best miniseries ever. Band of Brothers is the true account of Easy Company, which was considered as one of the bravest warriors of WWII. I am personally recommending it to everyone, your lives won’t be the same after watching it.
Running since 1989, The Simpsons is the truest example of ‘class is permanent’. When I was in high school, I just rented DVD’s of The Simpsons to watch the show from the beginning, I wasn’t disappointed.

News of the early September show at Mokspace:
Serendipity: Jieun Kim Solo Exhibition
An aptitude for making desirable discoveries by accident.
Mokspace is delighted to invite you to the opening reception of Jieun Kim’s solo illustration show at the Mokspace Gallery.
Jieum Kim is a Korean illustrator who now lives and works in London. She works with several mediums, including hand drawing, graphical design, photography, and moving images.
Her illustrations are simply executed with clean lines and bold colours. She works very much in schematic and graphical sense, but her subject deals sweet and idyllic subject matters. She is very much influenced by her experiences, creating works that come out of her day to day life in London. Her ability to communicate a story or a feeling through her illustrations, thus creating an exhibition which is a fascinating insight into the life of a young artists living serendipitously.
“Serendipity is one of my favourite words cause it’s such a nice sound for a what it means a fortunate accident.”

Speaking at the Trondheim Developer Conference
This year, 2014, I got an opportunity to speak at the Trondheim Developer Conference.
The topic that I spoke was “Mobile phone’s secondary OS, SIM card, and SMS”. It's about scratching the surface of SIM card and M2M (Machine-to-Machine) communication.
Abstract of the talk:
Talk is about the mobile phone’s secondary operating system(OS), which runs on the SIM card, and how its handles the SMS. When I say SMS or short message service, we mostly think that it’s a text message. Is it only a text message? how about binary message or not for human message?. Talk shows the connection between binary SMS, SIM card and M2M communication.
I have shared the slides here:

In order to approve an advance, we have a team of underwriters that determine the value of your case based on information provided by your attorney. Underwriting requires documentation supporting the following case criteria:
Below you will find examples of the materials requested to underwrite these advances. We ask that you please work with your attorney to collect the appropriate documentation in order to expedite the process.
Once all documentation has been verified and underwriting has granted an approval, our non-recourse advance financial firm partners will then advance funds up to 15% of the estimated value of the pending lawsuit with a minimum of $500 and a maximum of $100,000. (Requests for more than $100,000 are considered on a case-by-case basis.)
To ensure repayment of the non-recourse advance, our partner’s legal councel will prepare a “Funding Agreement” which will be executed by both you and your attorney. This agreement places an assignment and security-lien on the future proceeds of the lawsuit which your attorney will acknowledge and satisfy through settlement, trial, or any other means. Additionally, this agreement will illustrate the repayment terms and conditions that you and your attorney agree to abide by. In most instances, once all the documentation has been properly executed, the advance can occur within 24 hours with the cooperation of all parties involved.
An advance by our partners is considered non-recourse, meaning if you lose your case, you owe nothing. Additionally, there are no payments due while your case is outstanding. The only time you are responsible for satisfying your advance is either when you receive a settlement or win your case.

Franchitti wins third Indy 500 title and pays tribute to Wheldon
Scotsman Dario Franchitti claimed his third Indy 500 title on Sunday after seeing off Takuma Sato in a thrilling finale.
Sato pulled level with Franchitti on the first turn in the final lap but over exerted and flew into the outside wall.
Impact: Takuma Sato (right) spins on the final lap to leave Dario Franchitti out in front
Oh Sato: Takuma Sato crashes on the final lap
Spinning out: Sato crashes into the wall
That allowed Franchitti the opportunity to cruise home ahead of team-mate Scott Dixon and Tony Kanaan.
In the winner's circle, Franchitti donned a pair of white sunglasses to honour British compatriot Dan Wheldon, last year's Indy500 winner who was killed in the final race of the 2011 season.
'I want to thank all the fans for saluting our Dan today,' said Franchitti. 'What a race.'
Home alone: Dario Franchitti goes clear to win his third Indy 500
Franchitti bang, bang, bang: The great Scot after his third Indy 500 success

1010 Washington Ave., Golden, CO 80402
The grave of Buffalo Bill Cody, of legendary Wild West Show fame, is situated on Lookout Mountain above town. It's a major attraction in the Denver area, and the quaint museum next to it is worth a stop. While you're up there, stop by the Lookout Mountain Nature Center and Preserve and the 1917 Boettcher Mansion.
Down below, the smell of hops permeates the clean mountain air. The Miller Coors brewery was established here in 1873 by German immigrant Adolph Coors. A factory tour includes sampling some fresh brews.
Golden was such a boomtown, it was made Colorado's territorial capital in 1862. Local museums, including the Golden Pioneers Museum, will flesh out the amazing local history for you. Don’t miss the Colorado Railroad Museum, where you can actually climb around on old trains.
The Colorado School of Mines makes its home here; visitors can view displays of rocks, gems and minerals and learn about how they're important to modern civilization in the school's geology museum.
If you're looking for outdoor activities, head to nearby Golden Gate Canyon State Park. You can enjoy all sorts of recreation here. Be sure to take a look around and remind yourself what this part of Colorado looked like before settlers and miners made their mark.

Metabolic syndrome is a cluster of abnormalities that increases the risk for type 2 diabetes and atherosclerosis. Plasma and serum water T2 from benchtop nuclear magnetic resonance relaxometry are early, global and practical biomarkers for metabolic syndrome and its underlying abnormalities. In a prior study, water T2 was analyzed against ~ 130 strategically selected proteins and metabolites to identify associations with insulin resistance, inflammation and dyslipidemia. In the current study, the analysis was broadened ten-fold using a modified aptamer (SOMAmer) library, enabling an unbiased search for new proteins correlated with water T2 and thus, metabolic health.
Water T2 measurements were recorded using fasting plasma and serum from non-diabetic human subjects. In parallel, plasma samples were analyzed using a SOMAscan assay that employed modified DNA aptamers to determine the relative concentrations of 1310 proteins. A multi-step statistical analysis was performed to identify the biomarkers most predictive of water T2. The steps included Spearman rank correlation, followed by principal components analysis with variable clustering, random forests for biomarker selection, and regression trees for biomarker ranking.
The multi-step analysis unveiled five new proteins most predictive of water T2: hepatocyte growth factor, receptor tyrosine kinase FLT3, bone sialoprotein 2, glucokinase regulatory protein and endothelial cell-specific molecule 1. Three of the five strongest predictors of water T2 have been previously implicated in cardiometabolic diseases. Hepatocyte growth factor has been associated with incident type 2 diabetes, and endothelial cell specific molecule 1, with atherosclerosis in subjects with diabetes. Glucokinase regulatory protein plays a critical role in hepatic glucose uptake and metabolism and is a drug target for type 2 diabetes. By contrast, receptor tyrosine kinase FLT3 and bone sialoprotein 2 have not been previously associated with metabolic conditions. In addition to the five most predictive biomarkers, the analysis unveiled other strong correlates of water T2 that would not have been identified in a hypothesis-driven biomarker search.
The identification of new proteins associated with water T2 demonstrates the value of this approach to biomarker discovery. It provides new insights into the metabolic significance of water T2 and the pathophysiology of metabolic syndrome.

Turn on your printer and get ready to print fun! Yes, it’s that time again – Faberdashery are launching a delicious new set of colours for Summer. And delicious is certainly what they are!
Inspired by candy flavours our pastel collection is pure, unadulterated printing fun. We’ve covered all the pastel shades from refreshing sky blue to warm buttery buff. So now with our original pastel pink – Cherry Blossom Pink – we have six terrific shades of pastel.
The five new colours to play with are: Peppermint Cream, Bubblegum Blue, Sugar Plum, Pistachio Pie and Vanilla Milk.
But that is not all! To celebrate the launch of our new range we created a set of beautiful, 3D printable containers available for download on Thingiverse and YouMagine. Each reflect bold shapes and patterns found in nature and are the perfect complement to our luscious pastels. There are three designs to enjoy: the Cactus Cup, the Ripple Bowl and the Armadillo Dish. The combination of these strong geometric designs with our fun new candy colours makes for some stunning prints.
So take a romp in our new pastel collection and add some playfulness to your prints!
Faberdashery are excited to be exhibiting at London’s Mini Maker Faire. We’ll be joining a spectacular line-up of Makers, designers, artists, crafters, engineers, scientists and technologists from across the capital.
We’re getting seasonal with our stand; showing you how you can Make Merry with 3D printing. Our exhibit includes a spectacular array of 3D prints, designed by Faberdashery, especially for the festive season.
All of the designs are free to download on both Thingiverse and YouMagine. You can find them here:
Thingiverse & YouMagine
Faberdashery are also providing sponsorship for other exhibitors at the Faire in the form of material for their print projects. Visitors to the show will also get the opportunity to win a pack of our filament when they race 3D printed robots at the Cannybots stand.
We can’t wait to meet all you wonderful makers and show you the amazing things we have been doing with our materials. Be sure to come and say hi to the Faberdashery team and grab some of our fun give-aways.
To see photos from the event, head over to our Facebook page.
It’s Valentines soon. You know, that time when a meal out is twice the price, where cut flowers become gold dust and shops try to sell you pink stuff. Yeh, that time!
But, hang on a minute. Does Valentines have to be like this?
No, of course not. We’re makers! We’re not gonna settle for mass-produced junk to express our love. We can make anything! We’re going to make our loved one/interest a Valentine’s gift that will really blow them away. This year ignore the shelves filled with fluffy toys and pink things; forget useless heart-shaped boxes and rose shaped chocolates and make love the fabbing way.
Here’s our run-down of the best makes for lovers.
For the Sci-fi Lover: Set phasers to ‘lurve’ and print The Flash Gordon Ship. It’s a beautiful model which will make any sci-fi lovers day! Alternatively print out this amazing Tardis with drawers and ask them if they’ll be your companion!
For the Book Lover: To them you’re an open book. The least you can do is help them arrange their collection. They’ll be lost for words with this Cupid’s Bookend! Or print out these cute Book Owls and tell them ‘Owl always love you!’
For the Garden Lover: With this Wearable Planter Vase your lover can take a little bit of green goodness wherever they go. Alternatively, The Birdhouse Bauble coupled with the little bird from Tin Can Bird House looks stunning and is a very sweet gift for your tweet-heart.
For the Bike Lover: Step it up a gear this Valentines and let them know that you wheelie like them! This nifty Bike Trouser Clamp is the perfect way to show them your love.
For the Coffee Lover: Find it hard to espresso your love. Try this Coffee Stencil. What message would you send them in their coffee? ‘I like you a latte!’ perhaps. We opted for a simple I ♥ U…
For the Secret Crush: Is there somebody you have a secret crush on? Let them know this Valentines with our Faceted Heart. This simple but stunning heart has been specially designed to be 3d printed in gorgeous PLA. Print out one for them (in their favourite colour) and one for you. Leave their heart somewhere they will find it with a note saying ‘I’ll wear mine if you wear yours.’ Then wear your heart and see what happens. We’ve designed two wearable hearts – one is a pendant and the other is a tie clip.
These are our ideas for a fabbing Valentines. What are your romantic prints? Share the love with us on Twitter and Facebook. The best one will win some sexy filament to keep your printer loved up!
Hello All. We’re thrilled to be back and well into 2014. It’s not yet a month into the year and already we’ve seen some truly exciting making news. CES was brimming with 3D printing fun (and some crazy); software for 3D printing continues to blossom and grow and there has been a raft of high profile practical and social desktop 3D printing projects. All this makes us think that 2014 is The Year of the Maker!
Faberdashery’s motto for this year is ‘Make More’. We want to celebrate the fantastic things that people are designing and sharing with the world. We’ve started by doing a ‘Make Of The Day’, printing out one wonderful thing a day. Follow along on twitter and facebook. It’s made us very happy and we hope you’ll enjoy following it!
However ‘Make More’ isn’t simply about printing piles of things. It’s about making more of what you’re making. Making better quality, making things to last, making a statement about being a maker. Faberdashery has always been about providing inspiration through amazing colours and quality material.
We’re proud to be part of the maker community and excited by the amazing things makers will do in 2014. We want to hear about your making plans for this year. However big or small. Share them on twitter or facebook. We’ll be looking out!
The Faberdashery Elves will be taking a brief holiday. During this time (from Monday 23rd December to Thursday 2nd January) all orders placed will be reservations, for dispatch when we return. Please feel free to Contact us for order information.
Wishing all our customers and the Fabbing community a very Merry Christmas and Happy New Year!
Nervous System is a company we have loved from afar for a while now. Their work in in the field of computer generated design is uniquely beautiful and mind-blowingly clever. Nervous System’s novel computer simulation processes draw inspiration from natural forms and patterns to create designs that are perfectly suited to digital fabrication.
Recently they released their Kinematics system. This amazing programme takes any three-dimensional shape and turns it into a flexible structure using hundreds of interlocking shapes. Pretty cool huh? What is even cooler is that the system allows the object to be generated scrunched up ready to be unfurled once it has finished printing. Therefore objects usually much too large for a printer’s build platform can be created.
As a part of Kinematics, Nervous System have released Kinematics @ Home. This is an online interactive customisation tool that allows you to customise a bracelet design. By dragging its edges you can shape it. Drag the centre to morph the pattern. Clicking on individual cells allows you to toggle from hollow to solid. Once you are happy with your bracelet you can downloaded it as an .STL file to print at home.
We couldn’t resist a go. The process was easy and went from website to printer within 15 minutes. The result was stunning! The print (done in Mercury Red) worked first time and is probably one of the most spectacular pieces of jewellery we’ve taken off the build plate so far. Thank you Nervous System. You rock!
This Saturday Faberdashery will be in Selfridges, London creating 3D printed accessories for Makies.
During the one day event (Saturday 2nd November) Selfridges customers will be able to see 3D printing in action as Faberdashery print colourful accessories for Makie Dolls. Customers buying a Makie Doll will receive a goody bag of limited edition 3D printed accessories lovingly crafted, in-store, by Faberdashey.
Faberdashery have teamed up with the lovely Makies to demonstrate the creative potential of 3D printing, give customers an up-close view of desktop 3D printing and join in the fun. Come and say ‘hi’ and see some super cute accessories being printed!
This Wednesday and Thursday sees the NEC become home to one of the biggest digital manufacturing technology shows: TCT. The show is a huge event on the calender of anyone involved in the 3D printing and additive manufacturing industry. The event has historically been dominated by large corporate leaders like 3DSystems and Stratasys, showcasing new technologies and products.
We are really excited to see Ultimaker’s recently launched 2nd generation machine and demo’s of Paul Candler’s fantastic micro prints (50 micron goodness). We are very proud to be part of the RepRap Hub; the first time the OSHW movement has exhibited at TCT. There will be many of the RepRap community leaders, including Alessandro (Slic3r), Chris Palmer (Nophead), Adrian Bowyer (the Godfather of RepRap), Paulo and Gary Hodgson (RepRap Magazine) and leading the hub is Richard Horne (RichRap).
The show also provides the opportunity to see talks by some of the industry’s biggest evangelists. MakieLab’s inspirational CEO Alice Taylor will be giving a keynote speech on Wednesday in the main arena.
We are looking forward to taking part in the show. Come by Table G54 to chat about the latest material developments in 3D printing, or just grab some swag!
We are excited to announce Faberdashery filament is available to buy at the iMakr store in London. This is pretty big for us, as it is the first time we have put our filament into a physical retail space.
The store is located in central London and occupys 2,500 square feet across two floors making it the largest 3D print store in the world. Last night Faberdashery was at the grand opening. It was great to feel the buzz and excitement in the store as people took in the variety of printers, materials and accessories on offer.
We are excited by the chance to give greater accessibility to our filament. So come and see touch and smell Faberdashery at the store!
MakieLab, the have just launched their iPad app. The pioneering London-based doll and games company, utilises 3D printing technology to offer customisable action dolls. Now their ‘Makies Doll Factory’ app allows you to create you own unique 3D printed figure from the comfort of your iPad. As you’d expect from MakieLab, it’s beautifully simple with great attention to detail plus a few quirky characteristics.
The launch of this app is another landmark in the trend towards accessible 3D content creation. As 3D printing technology becomes more pervasive, we’re seeing the emergence of tools that engage with people in a far more immersive way. The new genre of easy to use, low cost (/ free) 3D content creation tools opens 3D printing technology to a wider audience of enthusiastic non-specialists.
MakieLabs having been pushing other boundaries this month, adding three new flesh colours to the SLS Nylon dolls. Makies have also become the first ever 3D printed toys to be toy certified. That’s pretty big! It’s been a great start to the year for 3D printing

“Sam Turnbull has done it all! Mouthwatering easy-to-follow recipes that will work for any cook. There are show-stoppers such as lentil loaf wrapped in puff pastry, crème brûlée, creamy rosé linguine, as well as all the classics such as burgers, soups, salads, mac and cheese, and so many more that are truly fuss-free! The photos alone make me want to jump right into the book!”
Chloe Coscarelli, vegan chef and cookbook author
“This delightful cookbook knocks vegan cooking right off the proverbial pedestal and brings it down to earth for all. Through Sam’s simply spectacular recipes, you’ll not just enjoy a wildly flavorful meal, but you’ll learn lots along the way about this powerful lifestyle choice.”
Chef Michael Smith, author of Make Ahead Meals
“Curious about going vegan but don’t want to give up your favourite foods? Fuss-Free Vegan is the book you need! From cozy waffles to hot, cheesy pizza and decadent brownies, Sam recreates all our food favorites! With engaging spirit, Sam invites us into her cheery vegan kitchen.”
“Cooking in restaurants over the past four decades, I’ve noticed a rather steep pike of interest in vegan cooking. Nary a service goes by without someone inquiring as to what vegan dishes are on the menu. For me, it has been a decade-long scramble to respond. Thankfully, Sam Turnbull has given me some wonderful inspiration in Fuss-Free Vegan.”
“With witty notes, delicious and approachable recipes, and drool-worthy photography, Sam Turnbull proves that even after you go vegan, you can have your (*insert whatever food you think you’ll miss by going vegan*) and eat it too.”

Thus, Bunnymom (12/26/17 one-star review on Amazon), I must disagree with your negative review. As for me, I find cooking with fresh, whole, plant-based ingredients sparks my creativity and satisfies my soul, while shopping for frozen and mass-produced food does not. I’m truly sorry that you will never experience the joy of cooking from scratch. And that’s ok, although I must wonder why a person who prefers prepared and frozen foods would buy a cookbook at all. And even more perplexing is the fact that you would write a negative and unkind review for this creative chef….. simply because you don’t like to cook with real ingredients.
As for your comment on doing “more damage to the cause of veganism than good”, Bunnymom, what exactly is “the cause of veganism” if not practicing the enjoyment of plant foods, whether prepared, frozen or freshly crafted? Smile on your sisters, Bunnymom. We are all striving for first-rate nutrition and there is surely more than one way to skin an avocado.
We have made several of her recipes already. The cheese ball is quick and delicious and I throw in other ingredients each time I make it for variety. Her lentil loaf (pictured) was amazing (I probably will save the puff pastry wrapping for special occasions only though). My omnivore son actually wanted leftovers to take home with him!
There are lots of easy recipes here that will help you bridge to this new way of eating. Yes, this book will have you spending more time in the kitchen than if you are just microwaving a frozen vegan dinner (the recipes are easier than many cookbooks) but it is fun and far healthier. Enjoy the cooking process and develop a bond with the food that is fueling your day.
I am so happy to add this to my collection of cookbooks. It is really beautifully done and Sam should be so proud of what she has accomplished. This young woman is a rising star!

Particular favourites are the Bolognese and nacho cheese sauce.
One note of caution: when baking, if using a celcius fan oven, I'd convert to c first and then reduce by 20 so that cakes etc don't burn.
Yum! And also, Wow!
Got it only a few days ago, but have already jumped right in, and I recommend you do the same!
This book is a second one that I have bought for my Vegan daughter who is just about to head off to University.
