  <title>BABY&apos;S HOW-TO SUDOKU</title>
  <link>https://totling.dreamwidth.org/23425.html</link>
  <description>After seeing people &lt;i&gt;struggle&lt;/i&gt; at the Quilting Game on Colors, I thought I would try and help some people out with a how-to guide. I&apos;ve spent a lot of time this week teaching my family members how to do these puzzles, so in theory doing one on the internet will be easier, because computers have an undo button and no white out fumes. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;cut-wrapper&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;display: none;&quot; id=&quot;span-cuttag___1&quot; class=&quot;cuttag&quot;&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-open&quot;&gt;(&amp;nbsp;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-text&quot;&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;https://totling.dreamwidth.org/23425.html#cutid1&quot;&gt;So let us begin&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/b&gt;&lt;b class=&quot;cut-close&quot;&gt;&amp;nbsp;)&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div style=&quot;display: none;&quot; id=&quot;div-cuttag___1&quot; aria-live=&quot;assertive&quot;&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Hopefully I did a decent enough job of explaining why I moved where I did, and how I knew not to move, that everyone who skipped this round can go ahead and try the new round that just went up. ;A;b&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=totling&amp;ditemid=23425&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <description>This is a public service announcement. I am announcing a service to the public. Or maybe I am just annoying the public with my own personal opinions (which are, in this case, entirely founded and 100% true). But to cut to the chase -- &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;center&gt;&lt;span style=&quot;font-size: 20pt;&quot;&gt;&lt;span style=&apos;white-space: nowrap;&apos;&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://loquacious.dreamwidth.org/profile&apos;&gt;&lt;img src=&apos;https://www.dreamwidth.org/img/silk/identity/user.png&apos; alt=&apos;[personal profile] &apos; width=&apos;17&apos; height=&apos;17&apos; style=&apos;vertical-align: text-bottom; border: 0; padding-right: 1px;&apos; /&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;a href=&apos;https://loquacious.dreamwidth.org/&apos;&gt;&lt;b&gt;loquacious&lt;/b&gt;&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/span&gt; is prettyyyyyyy ~ ☆&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/center&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=totling&amp;ditemid=23086&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <description>So, you know, life. That&apos;s a thing that keeps happening. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I&apos;ll be spending the next week (well, eight days) down at my cousin&apos;s place, taking care of their two dogs while they&apos;re on vacation in Florida. She left me a list of chores to do, &lt;i&gt;which completely enrages me&lt;/i&gt;, but I honestly should have expected it. She did this all the time when I worked for her, too. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;At the very least, the puppy is adorable. Her name is Zoe, and her current hobbies are RUNNING EVERYWHERE, flopping around on my lap, and jumping up my back to put her paws on my shoulders. She is also a biter, but we are working on that. And then my old pal Moose, the nicest and most cuddly mutt this side of anywhere.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;So that is what is happening right now. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;(Oh my gosh the puppies just both flopped down to take a nap together it&apos;s too cute)&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;b&gt;edit:&lt;/b&gt; &lt;i&gt;why is there no running water in the kitchen&lt;/i&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=totling&amp;ditemid=23039&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

ACTA is the Anti-Counterfeiting Trade Agreement. A new intellectual property enforcement treaty being negotiated by the United States, the European Community, Switzerland, and Japan, with Australia, the Republic of Korea, New Zealand, Mexico, Jordan, Morocco, Singapore, the United Arab Emirates, and Canada recently announcing that they will join in as well.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;Why should you care about ACTA? Initial reports indicate that the treaty will have a &lt;strong&gt;very &lt;/strong&gt;broad scope and will involve new tools targeting “Internet distribution and information technology.”&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;What is the goal of ACTA? Reportedly the goal is to create new legal standards of intellectual property enforcement, as well as increased international cooperation, an example of which would be an increase in information sharing between signatory countries’ law enforcement agencies.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Essential ACTA Resources &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;- &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;Read more about ACTA here: &lt;a href=&quot;https://www.eff.org/issues/acta&quot;&gt;ACTA Fact Sheet&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Read the authentic version of the ACTA text as of 15 April 2011, as finalized by participating countries here: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.international.gc.ca/trade-agreements-accords-commerciaux/fo/acta-acrc.aspx?lang=eng&amp;amp;view=d&quot;&gt;ACTA Finalized Text&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Follow the history of the treaty’s formation here: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.international.gc.ca/trade-agreements-accords-commerciaux/fo/intellect_property.aspx?view=d&quot;&gt;ACTA history&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Read letters from U.S. Senator Ron Wyden wherein he challenges the constitutionality of ACTA: &lt;a href=&quot;http://wyden.senate.gov/newsroom/press/release/?id=12a5b1cb-ccb8-4e14-bb84-a11b35b4ec53&quot;&gt;Letter 1&lt;/a&gt; | &lt;a href=&quot;http://infojustice.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Wyden-01052012.pdf&quot;&gt;Letter 2&lt;/a&gt; | Read the Administration’s Response to Wyden’s First Letter here: &lt;a href=&quot;http://infojustice.org/wp-content/uploads/2012/01/Kirk-12072011.pdf&quot;&gt;Response&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Watch a short informative video on ACTA: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=citzRjwk-sQ&quot;&gt;ACTA Video&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;Watch a lulzy video on ACTA: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4-NmUklcbDc&quot;&gt;Lulzy Video&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p&gt;&lt;strong&gt;Say NO to ACTA. It is essential to spread awareness and get the word out on ACTA.&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://frozen-in-tyme.tumblr.com/post/16264447102/youranonnews-acta-in-a-nutshell-what-is&quot;&gt;Via Tumblr&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;--&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;If you are in the US, the only thing I know of is this petition, which requires 25000 signatures in 30 days for any sort of response: &lt;a href=&quot;https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petitions#!/petition/end-acta-and-protect-our-right-privacy-internet/&quot;&gt;https://wwws.whitehouse.gov/petitions#!/petition/end-acta-and-protect-our-right-privacy-internet/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;There are only 3000 signatures right now.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I don&apos;t know what options there are in other countries, but again, for the US, I imagine &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.senate.gov/general/contact_information/senators_cfm.cfm&quot;&gt;calling Senators&lt;/a&gt; would be a course of action.  It worked on the surface for SOPA and PIPA, at least, and it at least sends the message that this is not okay.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=totling&amp;ditemid=22287&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <description>Am presently in the process of moving over all my inksome stuff here. It is taking FOREVER and my back hurts and whine. This post hereby serves as an apology for all the times I accidentally miss the &quot;date out of order&quot; button and have to fix it as an afterthought. &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;Whine.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=totling&amp;ditemid=12710&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>

  <description>I have more or less decided to use this to post porn.  Not that I write a lot of that!  I often distract myself or set out with the &lt;i&gt;intention&lt;/i&gt; of writing porn, only to write giant, long stories that have nothing to do with sex at all.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;I suppose this means also that I will have to conquer my hatred of tags so as to properly sort porn once it is written.  And maybe having a place in which to paste things will make me want to keep writing.  It&apos;s been awhile, but ... yeah why not.  &lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;And no I am not touching your goddamn kink bingo every card I have seen has a squick on it.  EWIE.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;img src=&quot;https://www.dreamwidth.org/tools/commentcount?user=totling&amp;ditemid=552&quot; width=&quot;30&quot; height=&quot;12&quot; alt=&quot;comment count unavailable&quot; style=&quot;vertical-align: middle;&quot;/&gt; comments</description>
