[lace-chat] right brainer!
I came out as a right brainer, though I managed to make her dance anti-clockwise by circlein my finger in that direction over her - did not know I had the power to make people do things!

Re: [lace-chat] Left or right brain?
I have not a clue how you make the figure look as if it is going anti-clockwise. I am the most right-handed of people, and should therefore be left-brained! Logic was my specialty in gaining my MA in mathematics, and I am VERY detail oriented.

Re: [lace-chat] Left or right brain?
Well that was just downright weird! It kept changing as I would look at it. Thanks for sharing the link. I am going to forward it to my artsy friends. In other right/left brain tests I score around 70 - 75 % right brained. My husband on the other hand, scores 98% left brained. When I get him into one of my art projects it is amazing what he does with his 2% though. By the way, being left or right handed has nothing to do with whether you are predominately left or right brained. There are many many wonderful artists who are right handed but are able to access the right side of their brain - the right side is the artsy side, the left side the logical side. If you are interested in the subject, Betty Edwards has written a couple of books on how to access the right side of the brain - Drawing On The Right Side of the Brain ( I and II editions) and Drawing on the Artist Within.

[lace-chat] Left or right brain?male or female brain?
The post I sent this morning seems to have got lost in the ether. Here it is repeated with typos corrected :-) BBC1 TV is running a series this week on whether you have a male or female brain - that doesn't mean you are male or female. The theory behind it is that the way your brain works depends on the amount of testosterone you were subjected to as an embryo in the womb at a certain point of development. They say that generally men use one side of the brain, but the two sides of the brain in women can comunicate with each other so they use areas not used by men. The results of experiements carried out this week are shown, which so far uphold the male/female brain regardless of sex theory. There's an online test as well at: http://www.bbc.co.uk/theoneshow/article/2007/10/mm_brainsex.shtml The average performances for people taking the test on a scale of 0-100 each side of male and female, men have so far come out 50 towards male and women 50 towards female. I came in at 25 towards male, and both my ring fingers are longer then my index fingers. If the fingers are the same length, that's counted as female. Fun to do, but don't take it too seriously. I suspect the online test will be removed from the web site over the weekend because the programme will go on to another topic next week.

I thought it strange that the direction would change when I scrolled down so I could not see her feet. When I scrolled up, she changed back. After a bit, I could make her change by focusing on the edge of the picture instead of directly on her. Our minds apply the depth to this flat picture, and that's what makes it appear one direction or the other.

Re: [lace-chat] Left or right brain?
I could only see it going clock wise, but did not agree with their lists. I found more on the left brain list that fit me. Maybe I am more like my daughter who as a child did not have a dominate side in her brain, she is (and always was) definitely left handed. Boy did she have trouble in school!!

[lace-chat] Card Exchange 2007 - procedure
A message went on the List about a Christmas Card Exchange. There were several immediate replies in the affirmative, so here is the information for Chat. I think the end of the year is sneaking up on us much too fast. Yes, it probably is time to be thinking of lace Christmas cards. I'm willing to coordinate this year, if no one else has a great urge to do so. Basic rules: You trade cards with another lacemaker. Your card must have some handmade lace in or on it. It can be any kind of lace. The card can be any kind, handmade or purchased, as long as it has lace somewhere. The card should be mailed by Dec. 5 so it will arrive well before Christmas, to be enjoyed. Each person is allowed to sign up for one, two, or three exchanges. Think carefullySign up ONLY if you are willing to make some lace and send the card. It is extremely disappointing to send a card and not receive one back. This happened to one person last year. I hope it doesn't happen this year. And when you receive a card, you should email a thank you to the sender so he/she knows it was received. Jenny sent the following message: Last year I hosted the photos on my site at www.brandis.com.au/2006/index.html and am willing to do so again in 2007. It was great fun to see many of the cards last year, so there's one more instruction: Send a picture/scan to Jenny If interested in participating, send an email to me at [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Do NOT send to the List.) Two weeks should be enough to think about itso send in your name by Oct 25 (but you can start planning and making lace right away). Give your name, address, email, and how many exchanges you wish to do (1, 2 or 3). Contact me if you have any questions. Alice in Oregon -- where clouds covered the sun, but there's no rain.

I came in at 25 towards female - and I could make Tamara's dancer spin both ways.

[lace-chat] Useful health-history website
My kids had been after me to make a written family health history, now that they are adults and their new doctors are wanting all that information. I kept intending to... but this Sunday the Parade magazine that comes in the Sunday newspaper had an article on it- and gave the URL for a My Family Health Portrait by the U. S. Department of Health and Human Services. Go to hhs.gov/familyhistory and you can type everything in back to your grandparents, and then spread out from there. It will create either a family tree with certain major things flagged, or a spread-sheet-like chart with everyone's data listed under the diseases you asked it to track. Pretty nifty. -- -- Martha Krieg [EMAIL PROTECTED] in Michigan To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace-chat [EMAIL PROTECTED] For help, write to [EMAIL PROTECTED]
