Caleb-dog and I took a lovely little road trip to the Georgia coast for a few days. We made it slow and easy; I decided in the interest of fuel economy to drive no faster than 65 miles per hour most of the way down on the Interstates. I loaded some audiobooks on my ipod, packed some snackage, and off we went. The trip down took about 5 1/2 hours, and I definitely got better gas mileage, but I got tailgated, honked at, and gestured at for going 5 miles under the speed limit. It took an act of will to maintain my steady pace. This while millions of gallons of oil spew into the Gulf of Mexico. Perhaps in addition to raging at the BP machine, we should examine our own sick need to drive everywhere fast and consume more fossil fuel than necessary.
On the coast I stayed with my dear friends the Spratts, who own a bed and breakfast in Darien, Georgia. If you are ever looking for a beautiful place to stay in a sleepy little coastal Southern town, please check out the Open Gates Bed and Breakfast. Jeff and Kelly are both trained biologists and know much about the area's rich natural resources. They can point you in all kinds of fun directions. They will also serve you some amazingly sweet locally caught wild Georgia shrimp (the area's major industry) with grits for breakfast. I stopped by the Georgia Shrimp Company market and brought home five pounds of large shrimp and froze them in one-pound batches.
Oh, and saltwater swimming pool? Best thing ever — no chlorine!
We had a brief but thoroughly relaxing few days of early morning runs, a visit to the beach at Jekyll Island, a couple of dips in that marvelous pool in the heat of the day, and just hanging out and visiting. I goofed around with Kelly and Jeff's kids a good bit. Here is a song that Hank and I wrote last year. We thought it deserved its own video.
Yesterday instead of trudging back up the interstate, I decided to make the journey part of the destination and took a meandering backroad drive home, going about 55 most of the way. Including some protracted stops, it took about 6 1/2 hours to get home. We broke up the trip by visiting some farm stands, where I picked up some Vidalia onions, peaches, cantaloupe, and pecans.
And as we passed through Milledgeville, on impulse I turned off US 441 into Andalusia, Flannery O'Connor's beautiful 544-acre farm there. We spent an hour or so walking the verdant grounds and spotted all sorts of wildlife, including four deer. Caleb happily sunk himself into the cool mud at the edge of the pond.
And joy to my heart, the peacocks are back. Flannery O'Connor was a passionate keeper of chickens, ducks, and especially peafowl. This is one of the reasons I feel a particular affinity for this writer. In her honor, we have a hen named Mary Flannery.
I have read that peafowl are wonderful for mosquito control, and indeed, I didn't see — or slap — a single skeeter during the hot and humid hour we spent walking around.
Also captivating was Flannery's mother's milk storage house. Early on, Regina actually worked the property as a dairy farm and stored milk in this little structure. It was restored last year. I love the bottles in the windowsill.
Between the slow drive and staying with friends, it was just about the most frugal vacation I have ever had — yet completely enjoyable. Because of the money I didn't spend on gas and lodging, I was able to take Kelly and Jeff out for a big splurgy seafood dinner my last evening there. Another mountain of shrimp followed by vat of peach cobbler and ice cream.

Here's the Sieve of Eratosthenes, the strategy of an ancient Greek mathematician to find prime numbers.
So, x=2, the first prime number. Write a list of numbers from x to y.
Cross out x's multiples, then do the same for the next uncrossed number. The ones crossed out are the composites, and the ones left are the primes, because primes have no factors other than 1 and itself, and composites have at least one more. so if y = 10, then the primes are:
2, 3, 5 and 7,
and the composites are:
4, 6, 8, 9, and 10.

I became aware of Stephen Leather after hearing about his huge Kindle success on Amazon.co.uk. Naturally, I asked him to guest post and share his perspective on self-pubbing.
Here's Leather:
I stand in awe of Joe and his success selling eBooks. And I'm no slouch myself – I've sold more than 250,000 eBooks on Kindle alone since Christmas, almost all of them in the UK. (I'm sure you remember the UK – we're the guys whose nuts you pulled out of the fire sixty-six years ago, for which many thanks!)
Joe is at the vanguard of ePublishing, shouting from the rooftops that traditional publishing is dead and the self-publishing is the way to go. Long live the revolution!
Is he right? You know, deep down I think he probably is, but I've just signed a new three-book deal with my UK publisher for close to $500,000. Could I make more money doing it myself? Yes, probably. So why don't I? Here's the thing. I love books. Real books. I always have. And one of the biggest kicks I get is to walk into a bookstore and see a shelf-full of my books. I've got more than twenty 'real' books in print so often I get a shelf to myself. And I get an even bigger kick if my 12-year-old daughter is with me and she can see for herself the results of Dad locking himself away on the laptop for hours on end. I never get the same kick when I see someone reading a Kindle. It's just not the same. So I'll be sticking with real books, for a while longer at least!
But for most writers, a traditional publishing deal just isn't possible. It used to be that a writer could send his work off to pretty much any publishing house and someone there would read it. I came up through the 'slush pile' and so did most of the writers of my generation. But one by one the publishers stopped accepting unsolicited manuscripts and agents became the new gatekeepers.
Literary agents in the UK are actually quite nice people, but they are a totally different animal in the US and I do understand the frustrations writers face when trying to get an agent in America. I've been writing for almost a quarter of a century and in all that time I've only met one decent human being working as a literary agent in the States – the rest have been horrible, self-centered, arrogant shits. Pardon my French. They seem to take pleasure in denying writers access to publishers and I for one hope take pleasure in the fact that the new ePublishing route cuts them out of the loop. Good riddance, hopefully.
So I do understand why so many writers are embracing Joe's philosophy and turning to self-publishing eBooks. But there is one cold hard fact that I don't seem to see anywhere on the blogs and forums devoted to ePublishing. You probably won't like hearing it, especially if you are one of the new wave of "Indie" writers. But I'm going to say it anyway. Here goes. The vast majority of self-published eBooks are bad. Worse than bad. Awful. There, I've said it.
By "bad" I don't just been badly formatted or lacking originality. I mean badly written. Bad punctuation. Clichéd descriptions. Clunky dialogue. And here's the thing. When I hear "Indie" writers talking about their books, all they seem to talk about is how they go about marketing their work. How they blog, how they work their Facebook contacts, how they post on the forums. I never hear them talking about how they want to improve their craft. For most of the ones I come across it's all about the selling. I get emails all the time from "Indie" writers asking me what the secret is to selling a lot of eBooks. I don't get any asking how they can become better writers.
Here's another home truth that I always used to tell wannabe writers. A good book will be published, eventually, by a traditional publishing house. A bad book almost certainly won't be. The fact that Amazon and Smashwords have no quality controls in place mean that home truth no longer applies. Any book can be published. The floodgates have opened. And I don't think that's a good thing.
I think of writing a book as being akin to running a marathon. Anyone who finishes a marathon deserves kudos. It's a long haul. It's hard work. But just because you've run a marathon doesn't mean you should be running at the Olympics.
If you have written a book then you deserve a pat on the back. Well done you. But just because you've written a book doesn't mean it's good enough to be published. And just because you've been published doesn't mean that people will buy it. It seems to me that the rush to embrace self-publishing means that the quality of the work has become secondary to the marketing of it.
Every "Indie" writer now has a blog, mostly pale imitations of Joe's, they have a Facebook presence which they use to constantly push their work, (a quarter of my Facebook "friends" are writers who do nothing other than post about their books) and they spend hours on the various eBook forums. It's all about the marketing. They ask for other writers to tag their books, they get friends and family to post favorable reviews (it's amazing how many self-published eBooks start of with half a dozen five-star reviews on Amazon, mostly from readers who have only ever reviewed the one book) and they share Tweets with other writers. Every "Indie" writer is following the same formula. Sell, sell, sell. The quality of the work seems to have got lost in the process.
A very wise friend once told me about the Rule Of Ten Thousand. Basically he took the view that it takes ten thousand hours to acquire any skill. That's about how long it takes to learn a foreign language, or play the piano proficiently, or play pool expertly, or become a good poker player. It applies to almost everything (except maybe free-fall parachuting).
My first book was published, by Harper Collins, but by the time I had written it I had been working as a journalist for more than ten years and so had been writing for at last 10,000 hours. To be honest, I didn't hit my stride until my fourth book.
Let's say you write for two hours a day. That means you hit the 10,000 hours after 5,000 days, which is what, thirteen years? And yes, that's probably how long it has taken most writers to reach the stage where they get published. Writing for the most part is a craft. A skill that has to be learned. Very few writers published the traditional way see their first book in print. It's often their fifth or sixth that is good enough to be published. Jack Higgins famously wasn't published until after he'd written more than a dozen novels and he didn't achieve any real success until his 36th – The Eagle Has Landed.
EPublishing has removed that learning curve. Now any book can be published, no matter how awful. And I think that's bad for writers. The one or two times I have suggested that a writer spend some time improving their craft I've had abuse heaped on me so these days I don't bother saying anything. Yes, "Indie" writers need to sell their work, yes marketing is important, maybe vital, but let's not let the medium become the message. My advice to any writer who has finished their first book is to relax, take a deep breath, and start the next one. Send your first novel out to every agent there is, and see what happens. You will probably be ignored, you might get a one-line rejection, but the fact is that if the book is good then it will be picked up. Eventually. And if you can't get an agent, maybe consider that the book isn't very good and make the next one better. And make the one after that even better.
Once you've done your ten thousand hours you can consider yourself a real writer and at that point you can go back and examine your early work. You'll probably realize how much it can be improved, or maybe that it's simply not publishable. And if after you've done your ten thousand hours you still haven't got an agent or a publishing deal, then maybe you should think about self-publishing.
Even as I write this I can feel Joe at my shoulder saying 'What about the money?' Yes, I know that as a self-published writer you get to keep a bigger chunk of the profits. Yes I know that it's ridiculous that the traditional publishers keep up to 85 per cent of the money they make from selling eBooks. Yes, it is a fact that you can get an eBook up within hours but a real books takes up to a year from delivery to being on the shelves. But for me at least, being a writer is about producing quality work. Work that I can be proud of. And that takes time and effort. I'm a better writer now than when I started because I have been traditionally published for more than twenty years. I really believe that if the Kindle had been around twenty years ago and I had rushed into self-publishing I would probably have made a lot of money but wouldn't have been anywhere near as good a writer as I am. And for me, it's the writing that matters.
Okay, that's my ten cents worth. Now here's the sales pitch. I've just put my book Nightfall up on Kindle at http://www.amazon.com/dp/B004ZCIN0I
Nightfall is an interesting one. It's a real book, published by Hodder and Stoughton in the UK. I don't have a US deal so I have the US eBook rights and am free to sell it myself. That means that an eBook that costs about ten bucks in the UK can be sold in the US for the Amazon minimum – 99 cents.
The hero is Jack Nightingale, a former cop turned private eye who discovers that he was adopted at birth and that his real father was a Satanist and that Nightingale's soul has been sold to a devil, a devil who will come to claim it on his thirty-third birthday, just three weeks away. Think Angel Heart crossed with The Dresden Files with a bit of Constantine thrown in and you won't go far wrong
Oh, don't give me any grief about the cover – my daughter designed it for me and I love it!
Joe sez: I've said it time and again: Don't Write Shit.
Unfortunately, it is difficult to know if you've written shit or not, because you're too close to the material.
In the past, the gatekeepers (agents, editors) vetted manuscripts and screened out the majority of the shit. Up until last year, I believed this was a necessary part of the process.
Then I realized that the self-publishing revolution has gatekeepers in place. They're called readers.
Most readers don't have the experience of industry pros, and may not be very helpful in their critiques. But they do vote with their dollars, and a wise author should pay attention to reviews that say similar things (I hated the hero, the writing is repetitive, this needs an editor, etc.).
Writers like me and Stephen have spent years honing our craft. Many indie writers self-pub their first novel, and it's doubtful they spent 10,000 hours on it. As unfair as the old gatekeeping system was, it did force writers to improve, and those who were accepted were battle-tested and reached a minimum quality standard. If the Kindle had been around when I wrote my first book back in 1988, I would have self-pubbed it, and it would have been a big mistake. That book simply wasn't good enough.
But that legacy system also rejected some good books I'd written--books that I've gone on to earn hundreds of thousands of dollars on.
So my overall opinion of the legacy gatekeeping system is that it can blow me. Those traditional gatekeepers aren't almighty differentiators between good and bad. They're ordinary people, and they make a lot of mistakes.
We're better off without them. But that isn't an excuse to write shit.
I've said for years that all writers need to have goals. One of Leather's goals is to see his books in bookstores. He places more value on this than higher profits, and that's fine.
Personally, I've had my fill of seeing my books on the shelf (especially since I know 50% or more will likely be returned), and I feel that the majority of bookstores will be gone in a few years, so those who pursue this goal had better be quick about it.
Ultimately, it comes down to the same thing it always has: write good books.
Once you do that, you can decide which path to publication to pursue. The fact that we have a choice, for the first time ever, is a wonderful thing. Don't take it lightly.

If I didn't already love you enough - you using OneNote has made me love you even more. I absolutely love OneNote and couldn't live without it. I find it better than Evernote (although I can't really give a reason why other than I find it easier to navigate) and I use it for pretty much every part of my life. Great video and I loved watching how you took that information and organized it.ReplyDelete

While Spain's mainland suffered under the repressive regime of dictator Franco, Ibiza was known as a libertine flower power paradise with wild full moon parties, quiet beaches for nude sunbathing and widely available soft drugs. Even today, you can still find traces of the hippie lifestyle on the "White Island". Check out these 3 hotspots for those who still relish the flower power.
In the turbulent 1960s, Ibiza was overrun by peluts, or " hairy ones". The Rolling Stones, Pink Floyd and Santana performed here, Salvador Dalí vacationed on the island and Frank Zappa and Grace Jones enjoyed hallucinogenic sunsets at the famous Café del Mar. In its glory days, between 1965 and 1975, the island attracted around 100,000 hippies a year. Ibiza's image as a hedonist party paradise emerged in the hippie era, which lasted well into the eighties.
Many of the hippies who came to Ibiza in the 1960s settled in the remote north of the island, in run-down fincas in small villages such as Sant Carles. Bar Las Dalias was hippie central: the place for new-age parties where drugs were brought in by the busload. Today, it's tourists who are brought in by the busload. Flyers advertise the Saturday hippie market as a place where "authentic hippies sell colourful jewellery, bongos and handmade crafts".
Bar Las Dalias, Sant Carles de Peralta, Ibiza, http://www.lasdalias.es/
Bar Anita in the hippie village of Sant Carles is still one of the original hippie hangouts. The thick walls are whitewashed, delicious tapas dishes line the counter and the notice board is full of ads for yoga retreats, tai chi courses and holistic massages. On the patio under the vines, tables and chairs wobble on the cobblestone floor – sit carefully and enjoy a drink. This place attracts not only tourists but also locals, if only to empty their mailboxes. Nothing has changed since the sixties.
Bar Anita, Sant Carles de Peralta, Ibiza
On weekdays, Cala Benirràs is one of the most beautiful beaches on Ibiza, set on a protected cove and bordered by gently rustling pine trees. On sunny Sundays, around sunset, modern hippies flock here from far and wide to build camp fires on the beach and dance, eat, drum and dance the night away. Grab a table at the laid-back beach bar and watch the pink sun disappear behind a rocky island in the Mediterranean. Peace.

Clarkson University Student Erin Corrigan Receives EPA Fellowship
It sounds like a dream: winning a fellowship that covers college tuition and provides work experiences and research opportunities to help launch a career.
Clarkson University student Erin Corrigan '14 of Remsen, N.Y., is living that dream; she landed a Greater Research Opportunities Fellowship from the Environmental Protection Agency.
The GRO fellowship is worth $48,900 and will cover Corrigan's tuition expenses for the remainder of her Clarkson career. Corrigan is one of 39 undergraduate students nationwide to receive the fellowship, which is meant to encourage careers in the environmental sciences.
"Receiving this fellowship almost seems too good to be true with the potential to open up so many opportunities and help guide what direction I want to go with my life," said Corrigan.
Corrigan, an environmental science and policy major in Clarkson's Institute for a Sustainable Environment, will be placed at an EPA research location this summer in either Golden, Colo., or Corvallis, Ore., for an internship. She will also complete a research project before she graduates; her work may involve analyzing the carbon footprint Clarkson University's dining services generates. The project would offer solutions on how campus dining could reduce its carbon footprint, such as buying more local food to cut down on transportation pollution.
Corrigan grew up near the southern fringe of the Adirondack Park and has always enjoyed hiking, camping and being outdoors. Those interests helped spur her passion for environmental sciences.
"The more you're out there, the more you appreciate it," she said.
Environmental Health Sciences Professor Alan Rossner, Corrigan's advisor, said the fellowship is indicative of her work ethic and interest in environmental science.
"It says a lot about her leadership potential, her leadership now and how that will grow as she moves forward," said Rossner.
The internship will be invaluable as Corrigan launches her career, Rossner said.
"That's worth more than any money. You get to work with scientists in the top of their field. It puts you in the middle of conducting research," he said. "It's going to help her say 'This is what I really want to do in graduate school.'"

Ali Fedotowsky — Crush of the Day [PICTURES]
Ali Fedotowsky is a former contestant on the ABC show 'The Bachelor' and was also 'The Bachelorette' for season six of the popular reality dating show. Ali is back in the headlines after splitting with 'Bachelorette' winner Roberto Martinez. Ali is our crush today because we think she deserves more than being just another name on the long list of reality dating casualties.
As much as we are crushing on Ali we have to ask her, and anyone else that participates on or watches reality dating shows, if they really expect things to work out? There might be a better chance at success if, instead of whisking contestants away to tropical islands and exotic locales, reality shows took place in real life. How about the contestants on 'The Bachelor' follow him during a regular day — to his boring job, the gym, the grocery store for the same five items he buys every week, home to watch sports, surf for pornography and fall asleep on the couch naked. If a woman wants to stick around after all that excitement she is truly in love.
On the flip side, the men should follow the 'The Bachelorette' around to get pedicures, listen in on their phone calls with friends and family and then accompany the young lady on a gynecologist visit. It would be the first time in TV history all the contestants on a reality show eliminated themselves on the first day of shooting.

Author Notes: Growing up in the Northeast, I rarely ate figs outside of their Newton homes. When I moved to San Francisco, I was overwhelmed by the blessings of its Mediterranean climate. My first apartment had not only a fig tree, but also a Meyer lemon tree and rosemary growing in such wild abundance, it was considered a weed. I don't have a fig tree in my garden now, so I eagerly await the month of August, when purple Mission figs and green Calmyra figs are widely available in farmers markets. For a simple and yet unbeatably delicious summer canapé, I combine the sweetness of perfectly ripened figs with the tangy contrast of goat cheese, accented by a sweet drizzle of honey. —Beautiful, Memorable Food
Makes: 24 pieces6
fresh Mission figs
ounces goat cheese
water crackers
a few
ounces honey
a few
leaves of fresh mint, as optional garnish
- Slice each fig into 4 disks, length-wise.
- Use a knife or spreader to put a thin layer of goat cheese on each cracker.
- Place a fig slice atop each goat cheese-topped cracker.
- Drizzle each fig and goat cheese-topped cracker with a bit of honey. (Easiest with a honey bear.)
- If desired, chiffonade mint leaves and sprinkle on top as an optional garnish.
- Serve immediately.

LEWISBURG, Pa.- After a tense start to Saturday's finals, the Yale men's swimming and diving team found its rhythm and ended the second day of the Bucknell Invitational in first place. Yale's 2-day total of 934.5 points is 73 points ahead of its closest competitor, Bucknell.
The Bulldogs got off to a rough start in Saturday's finals when their A-team in the 200-yard medley relay was disqualified for a false start. Luckily, the B-team stepped up and finished in fourth place with a time of 1:33.90. Sophomore Kevin Stang, junior Ronald Tsui, senior captain Ed Becker, and freshman Oscar Miao beat their relay's seed time by 2.79 seconds.
Junior Andrew Heymann was Yale's top finisher in the 400-individual medley, tying for third place with a time of 3:59.80. Sophomores Brian Hogan and Stang took fifth and sixth place, respectively. Freshmen Alex Goss and Ben Lerude and senior Andy Wingerson also scored points in the race. Even with Yale's strong showing in the event, Bucknell managed to stretch out their lead to 43.5 points with a 1-2-7 finish.
But the Bulldogs were about to begin a string of victories that would put them ahead of Bucknell. With a 49.56 finish in the 100-yard butterfly, junior Alwin Firmansyah became the first Eli to win an individual event this weekend. Junior Mike Lazris took third place and Becker took seventh in the event. Becker recorded a best time in Saturday's 100-yard butterfly prelims with a 50.79 finish, and nearly equaled it in the final with a time of 50.83. Freshmen Aaron Greenberg and Alex Schultz also scored points in the final.
Junior Rob Harder claimed another victory for Yale in the 200-yard freestyle, finishing in 1:39.79. Hogan followed close behind, taking third place with a time of 1:42.01. Sophomores William Yang and Victor Zhang contributed points with their respective ninth and 16th place finishes in the event.
Heymann won the 100-yard breaststroke with a 56.63 finish. He was one of five Yale swimmers in the event that placed in the top 16 and scored double-digit points. The others were Goss, senior Danny McDermott, sophomore Kendrick McDonald, freshman Nick Sehlinger and Tsui. After the 100-yard breaststroke, Yale was in first place with 781 points, and Bucknell in second with 761.5.
Even without a first place finish, the Bulldogs dominated the 100-yard backstroke. Schultz, Lazris and Stang took second, fourth and sixth place, respectively. Greenberg took ninth, making him Yale's fourth swimmer in the top ten. Wingerson also scored points with a 21st place finish.
The Eli's capped off Saturday with a win in the 800-yard freestyle relay. The A-team of Hogan, Heymann, Zhang and Harder finished the race in 6:45.82. Again, Yale's B-team smashed their seed time and swam to a fourth place finish. Becker, Yang, senior Pat Killian and Schultz finished with a time of 6:53.28, much faster than their 7:10.60 seed.
The Eli's will try to secure first place at the Bucknell Invitational with strong performances in the meet's final events on Sunday. Live results will be posted at http://www.bucknellbison.com/fls/32100/live_stats/swim/13bucknellinvite/index.htm .

Martin Rees, in full Martin John Rees, Baron Rees of Ludlow, (born June 23, 1942, York, England), English cosmologist and astrophysicist who was a main expositor of the big-bang theory of the origins of the universe.
Rees was raised in Shropshire, in the English Midlands. After receiving a bachelor's degree in mathematics (1963) and master's and doctorate degrees in theoretical astronomy (1967) at Trinity College, Cambridge, he pursued an academic career in cosmology, mainly at Cambridge but with interludes in the United States at Princeton (1969–70; 1982; 1996; 1997) and Harvard (1972; 1988–89) universities and at the California Institute of Technology (1968; 1971). He also taught briefly at Sussex University (1972–73). Rees became one of the world's leading authorities on the big-bang theory and on the related topics of black holes, quasars, pulsars, galaxy formation, and gamma-ray bursts. His early prediction that a black hole would be found at the centre of the Milky Way Galaxy was borne out by subsequent observations.
In 1973 Rees was appointed Plumian Professor of Astronomy and Experimental Philosophy at Cambridge, a position he held until 1991. He also directed the Institute of Astronomy at Cambridge (1977–82; 1987–91). Rees later became Royal Society Research Professor at Cambridge (1992–2003) and then professor of cosmology and astrophysics in 2002. He was named to the highly prestigious but essentially honorary position of astronomer royal in 1995. In 2004–12 he served as master of Trinity College.
Rees was never content to keep within the narrow technical bounds of cosmological theory. In his books and lectures, he explored the links between science and philosophy and humankind's place in the universe. Gravity's Fatal Attraction: Black Holes in the Universe (1995), cowritten by Rees, contextualizes black holes in the larger astronomical discourse, and Before the Beginning—Our Universe and Others (1997) provides an overview of current astronomical knowledge and hypothesizes that the known universe is one of an infinite number of other, different universes. New Perspectives in Astrophysical Cosmology (2000) similarly reviews the contemporary understanding of the universe while also providing discussion of unproven theories.
Our Final Century (2003; published in the United States as Our Final Hour), in some ways a logical culmination of more than 30 years' work, belonged to a long tradition in which scientists, philosophers, and mathematicians warned of the dangers of uncontrolled scientific advance. Rees, not known for extravagant assertions, calmly stated in the book that humankind had only a 50 percent chance of surviving until the year 2100. He argued not that the human race would be wiped out by aggressive aliens but that the pace of technological change threatened to outstrip the ability of humans to control it. Rees also hosted the documentary What We Still Don't Know (2007), which investigates, among other topics, the possibility of intelligent life elsewhere in the universe.
Rees was made a fellow of the Royal Society in 1979 and served as president of that body from 2005 to 2010. He was made a foreign associate of the U.S. National Academy of Sciences in 1982. In 1992 he was knighted by Queen Elizabeth II. He received the Royal Society's Faraday Award in 2004 and in 2005 was awarded the Crafoord Prize by the Royal Swedish Academy, of which he had been a foreign member since 1993. In 2005 he received a life peerage. Rees won the Templeton Prize in 2011.

Howard earns second Big Ten gymnastics weekly award of season
UNIVERSITY PARK, Pa. -- After recording his seventh individual title of the season, sophomore Trevor Howard has been tabbed the Big Ten Gymnast of the Week. The award marks his second conference weekly honor of the 2014 season and the 11th of his career.
Howard helped guide the Nittany Lions to a first-place finish at the Navy Open (420.900) this weekend. He led the way with a trio of top-five finishes, including a first-place finish on the high bar, winning by a season-high score of 14.600.
Competing on the parallel bars, he captured a second-place finish (14.400), before swinging to another second-place finish on the rings. Howard's 15.750 score on the rings is a personal season-high, as well as the top Penn State score for the 2014 season.
Howard and the rest of the sixth-ranked Penn State men's gymnastics team will return to action Saturday, Feb. 8, welcoming Temple to Rec Hall for the Nittany Lions' first double dual meet of the season. The first event is slated to begin at 4 p.m.
Both season and single meet tickets are available for purchase. Season ticket packages costs $12 for adults and $8 for youth, while single meet tickets are $8 for adults and $5 for youth. Single meet tickets are available for purchase in advance at the Bryce Jordan Center and at the Rec Hall ticket window on the day of the meet.

Teresa Palmer Breastfeeds Son Bodhi Rain In Controversial Instagram Photo
New mom Teresa Palmer has joined the ranks of celebrity moms who are not ashamed to publicly breastfeed their babies. In a new Instagram collage, Teresa proudly featured a photo of her baby boy feeding from her breast. So precious!
Teresa Palmer, 28, is definitely loving her latest role as a new mom. The actress gushes over her son, Bodhi, and motherhood in a new Instagram caption.
Teresa Palmer Shares Breastfeeding Photo
It looks like Teresa is really enjoying motherhood!
The 28-year-old Warm Bodies actress and her husband, Mark Webber, welcomed their first child together, Bodhi Rain, on Feb. 17. Now that her son is just over a month old, Teresa has shared a photo of herself breastfeeding along with a super sweet caption about how much she loves being a mom.
"I love being a Mum. I love every part of it. I love the way I see myself differently now, as a Mother," Teresa wrote. "My hands look different for they are soothing when I touch him, the crook of my elbow now is for his head to rest and my body feeds him whenever he needs."
What a beautiful tribute from a beautiful mom.
Teresa Joins Selma Blair, Pink, & More Breastfeeding Celeb Moms
Teresa is now a part of the endless celebrity moms who have no shame breastfeeding their children in public.
While many people remember when Mayim Bialik fed her then 3-year-old son on the subway in New York City, there are many other celebrity moms who have breastfed their kids in public while they were still babies.
Among the celebrity moms who proudly breastfeed are Selma Blair, Pink, Gwen Stefani, and Miranda Kerr.
Mayim has since spoken up about breastfeeding in public, reminding society that it's not a sexual act.
"When I was nursing, I didn't feel the need to be immodest, but I also feel like that's going to vary from woman to woman," Mayim explained. "I would try to be absolutely respectful and conscious of the community I was in. But I don't believe you need to cover up a baby eating anymore than you need to cover a baby drinking a bottle."

From safe, certified organic Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash and Angel Baby Lotion to their #1 selling, cloth diaper safe Angel Baby Bottom Balm, you'll find something wonderful made with love and Mother Nature's herbal gifts from the earth. And since baby skin is no place for toxins, you'll never find artificial fragrances or dyes, artificial preservatives, Quaternium-15, 1,4-Dioxane, formaldehyde, phthalates, or any other toxic ingredients in any Earth Mama Angel Baby products. Purely natural, naturally safe, Mama's Promise.If you want to know what heaven smells like, it's that sweet, nuzzly baby place that makes your whole soul inhale. Frequently Asked QuestionsAre all of your products really organic?It's a sensible question, especially in light of the many products falsely claiming to be natural or organic. All Earth Mama Angel Baby teas, Angel Baby Blossoms and Postpartum Bath Herbs are USDA certified 100% Organic. Angle Baby Shampoo & Body Wash, Calm & Clean Hand To Toe Wash, Natural Non-Scents Hand To Toe Wash, and Happy Mama Hand To Toe Wash are NSF/ANSI 305 Certified Contains Organic Oils. Angel Baby Lotion and Earth Mama Body Butter are NSF/ANSI 305 Certified Contains Organic Oils. Angel Baby Lotion and Earth Mama Body Butter are NSF/ANSI 305 Certified Contains Organic Ingredients.Each Earth Mama Angel Baby product has as many organic ingredients as they can pack into it, but some essential ingredients aren't available as organic yet. And of course, Earth Mama products are free from toxins and any worrisome ingredients, like artificial preservatives, fragrances, dyes or surfactants.But what does "organic" really mean?It means that the plant was grown with respect for the earth, the soil, the farmer and you, the consumer. Certified organic farms adhere to strict standards, growing crops without the use of harmful pesticides, or the usual dose of toxic chemical fertilizers. Manufacturers of certified organic products have to undertake a monumental process that assures consumers of the purity of each ingredient, process, and final product, through every stage of manufacture.Why aren't ALL of your ingredients organic?Simply put, some ingredients just don't exist in an organic form, and some ingredients are not available certified organic. Sometimes the herbs they use are not cultivated, they grow in the wild, and are harvested with respect for sustainability and the integrity of the plant population. Since Mama is a member of the United Plant Savers, they can do their best to support practices that ensure healthy population of herbs growing in the wild. You will see these herbs listed as "wild harvested."What's your position about the use of palm oil?Earth Mama Angel Baby shares your concerns about deforestation and conservation, which is why they use only sustainably harvested palm oil in Earth Mama Angel Baby products. Their passion about caring for mamas extends to Mother Earth too, and they strive to use herbs, oils and butters that are grown and harvested only in ways that honor the earth, her people and her resources.Do you use lanolin, SLS, parabens or other synthetic preservatives?No, and they never have.Should I be worried about using that stuff?There are a lot of uneasy concerns about some of the ingredients commonly used in personal care products. Mama never wants you to have to worry about those things, so she has worked very hard to formulate the purest, safest products for mamas and babies.If you don't use synthetic preservatives, what do you use to preserve your products to make sure they are safe and free of bacteria and mold?All Earth Mama oil-based products, salves and massage oils don't contain water so they don't need a preservative to keep out the unpleasantries that can grow there.Lotions, on the other hand (or knee, or elbow), are made by emulsifying (blending) oils and water. And because of their rich organic and natural ingredients, they can become a perfect medium for nasty bacteria or mold. To combat that, Earth Mama Angel Baby's 100% organic preservative system is a certified organic alcohol extract of skin healing and moisturizing organic herbs. Beneficial to you, and safely preserved too!Where is the expiration date on Earth Mama products?Earth Mama uses a simple code that is their Sell By/Best By date as well as their batch and lot code. You will find a printed number that looks like this: 201409. In that example, 2014 is the year and 09, September, is the month by when the product is guaranteed to be at its best.I have an expired product. Will it hurt me or my baby?Earth Mama stamps a Sell By date on all products as a freshness guide for their resellers and customers, but this isn't an expiration date. To be sure of the quality of their products, they keep a sample from each batch of product that they make. Some product in this sample inventory are over 5 years old and are still just fine! That said, you should always use your own best judgment, if it smells "off," don't use it. You can extend the life of oils and salves by making certain they stay cool out of direct sunlight. So, don't store Earth Mama Angel Baby products on a windowsill or in the trunk of your car, and they should be fine for at least a year past the Sell By date.I need to know if your products will irritate my or my baby's allergies.You are the best judge of what is safe for you and your baby. You know your body best. Please read the ingredients lists to see if any of your known allergens are in these products. If you have specific questions or concerns about product safety, allergies, or ingredients, it is always best to consult with your Midwife or Naturopathic Doctor or another trusted healthcare professional who is knowledgeable about the use of herbs during pregnancy and when breastfeeding a baby.I am vegan, are all Earth Mama products vegan and cruelty-free?Yes they are, certified vegan in fact! They use no animal products like lanolin, and their balms are made using plant based wax instead of beeswax.Why are there little white specks in my Natural Nipple Butter and Angel Baby Bottom Balm?The white specks are shea butter, and may appear in Angel Baby Bottom Balm, Natural Nipple Butter, or Earth Mama Bottom Balm. When shea butter is cold, it solidifies. When it is warmed by contact with your skin, it should quickly melt and become a soft consistency again. Products made with natural ingredients, like herbs and essential oils, may vary in appearance across lots and final product batches, as they have no yucky additives to create false consistency.Is Angel Baby Bottom Balm good to use with cotton diapers?You bet! In fact, Earth Mama Angel Baby has received wonderful feedback from their customers, as well as cloth diaper companies, saying Angel Baby Bottom Balm is the best with cloth diapers.Do I need to wash the Natural Nipple Butter off my breasts before breastfeeding my Angel Baby?No, it's safe for both you and your angel baby.Why did my Shampoo/Body Wash/Hand To Toe Wash turn cloudy?It's because during shipping just got too cold. When the temperature drops, the natural fatty acids in these products begin to solidify and appear cloudy. Just pop your Angel Baby Shampoo & Body Wash, Calm & Clean Hand To Toe Wash, Natural Non-Scents Hand To Toe Wash, or Happy Mama Hand To Toe Wash into a cup of warm water and it will clear right up. Cloudy or clear, it will lather up and clean your pure, organic angel baby naturally!How do I heat my Booby Tubes if I don't have a microwave?One of the more intrepid Mama's Helpers took this question on and took some Booby Tubes home for a little experiment in her own oven. The results were terrific - as long as you don't forget to take the Booby Tubes out of the oven! Pretheyheat your oven to the lowest setting (that was 170 degrees on Mama's Helper's oven), place your Booby Tubes in an oven-safe dish, away from the heating element, and heat them for 10-15 minutes. After 15 minutes, they don't seem to get much warmer, so that seems to be all the time they need. Please set a timer and keep a very close eye on them while they are in the oven! One advantage of the microwave is it shuts off automatically, so with a regular oven, you'll have to be more diligent.How do I clean my Booby Tubes?Just wipe the outside 100% organic cotton with a damp cloth. It is important that you don't submerge them in water (or put them in a washing machine) as they are filled with flax seeds and if they get wet, they may sprout (really!).Why do you use plastic bottles and jars? Why don't you use glass bottles and jars?Earth Mama Angel Baby's commitment to honor the earth and her valuable resources extends to their packaging as well as their natural and organic ingredients. They are even the proud recipients of the BRAG (Business Recycling Award Group) for their green practices, and they are always looking for ways to better what they do. At this point, the plastic PET bottles and jars they use are the safest containers for both the products and customers. Their containers are colored to keep out harmful UV rays. The PET they use is the most readily recyclable and the safest plastic manufactured.Earth Mama Angel Baby products were originally packaged in glass, until they got reports of breakage, and found out a woman was cut opening jar of Natural Nipple Butter that had broken in transit. The last thing they want to do is hurt a mama with sore nipples! And they know how containers can end up bumping and slipping around changing tables and bathrooms, and can end up in little mouths too, so they choose to package their products in tumble and teething resistant plastic jars.Their opinion is that glass presents a much bigger safety concern than plastic. And, as always, they're looking for the safest, purest way to keep mamas and babies happy!Safe, organic products that work.
