God as Process Engineer: Creator, Sustainer, Reedemer, and Provider
From a Judeo-Christian perspective, all of these curiosities dovetail into a profoundly meaningful explanation: Being made in God's image helps to explain our creative and investigative skills, particularly when we consider that God has specially engineered this universe to reveal himself to human beings.
Series: Evolution Basics (48 entries)
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
Origins News Roundup for August 6, 2014
News about the Ebola outbreak and initiatives in genomic medicine lead our news roundup this week, with a collection of research and learning opportunities in biology and at the science/faith border to follow.
Origins News Round-Up for May 28, 2014
This weeks in Origins news: studies of a skeleton uncovered in 2007 provide clues about rapid human evolution in the Americas, our climate and Christian stewardship, a few BioLogos folks give interviews, and some cool links to miscellaneous finds.
Human Evolution: Genes, Genealogies and Phylogenies
When read in this way, the Genesis stories may be seen as one of the greatest-ever revolutions in human understanding. Genesis used the literary forms of the day to introduce its readers to a rational God who cares for people – and whose faithfulness made science possible. Genesis is expressly about theology, not science.
Origins News Roundup for May 14, 2014
This week in our Origins News Roundup: News of new nucleobases, the future of synthetic biology, and some healthy dialogue and critique of certain aspects of modern science.
Series: Intelligent Design and Common Ancestry (4 entries)
Would those genuinely interested in learning about evolution benefit from a careful explanation of why these common objections don't hold water? Here the answer seemed to me to be "yes."
Series: "The Language of God" Book Club (7 entries)
The BioLogos Book Club discussion of Francis Collins' The Language of God.
To Tame the World: What terrifies us about reality pushes us toward its Creator.
We can understand why man, modern man in particular, would like to mop the floors and bleach the walls. We might not be able to tame reality, but we can tame our perception of reality. We intellectualize in order to feel in control.
Origins News Round-up for January 17, 2014
Today's Origins News Roundup features challenging and exciting new ideas about evolutionary theory, fossil finds that add to our understanding of how carnivores and humans developed, some interesting science history from England, and more on American views of evolution.
The Father of Intelligent Design
"There was no better way, in Boyle's opinion, to 'give us so great a Wonder and Veneration' for God's wisdom, than 'by Knowing and Considering the Admirable Contrivance of the Particular Productions of that Immense Wisdom,' by which he mainly meant the exquisitely fashioned parts of animals both great and small."
Origins News Round-up for December 6, 2013
This week's Origins News Roundup features highlights from a recent conference of evangelical theologians, exciting human fossil finds, tell-tale lice, and a few words from the Pope.
Origins News Roundup for November 1, 2013
Where is human evolution going? Where has human evolution been? A roundup of stories from the past few weeks.
The Challenge of Cosmology
The idea that the story we know is only the very beginning raises a new question in place of Feynman's objection that Christianity is provincial. Is it presumptuous to claim that in such a grand universe, possibly with intelligent life arising in many places, the redemption and transformation of the entire cosmos starts here, on our pale blue dot?
God's Extravagant Love in Creation
Critics of Christianity look to evolution to show how the emergence of human life on earth demanded enormous ruin and ravage, billions of years of apparent waste and futility, species extermination and organism road kill. Not only was the massive dying off rampant, it's mandatory too.
Series: The Evolutionary Origins of Genetic Information (4 entries)
Join astrobiologist Stephen Freeland for a look into the nature of information and the origins of life on earth. (These posts were originally published as a paper in the ASAs academic journal, PSCF, and are reprinted here with permission.)
Belief in God in an Age of Science: John Polkinghorne, Part One
The world is not full of items stamped "made by God"—the Creator is more subtle than that—but there are two locations where general hints of the divine presence might be expected to be seen most clearly. One is the vast cosmos itself, with its fifteen-billion-year history of evolving development following the big bang. The other is the "thinking reed" of humanity, so insignificant in physical scale but, as Pascal said, superior to all the stars because it alone knows them and itself.
Biological Evolution: What Makes it Good Science? Part 2
The Galápagos Islands were not a distinct "center of creation," but a workshop for evolution in which an ancestral species made it to the yet uncolonized island and underwent a massive degree of speciation to adapt to the environment of the island. This is precisely what one would expect if the species of islands had arisen by evolution.
Meet Jimmy Lin, "Medical and Scientific Doxologist"
In our current culture, we're defined by our jobs. It's having a vocation. I wanted to shift away from that. I didn't want to be a doctor first and foremost, or a scientist, but one who praises God.

"Please Momma, Please? I'm being sooo good!"
This is a simple tart.. I came up with the recipe with pantry staples.
1 cup all purpose flour, sifted
1/8 tsp Kal Stevia
scant 1/4 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp salt
3 tbsp soy milk
1 tsp lemon juice
1/2 capful almond extract
1/4 c canola oil
Mix together all of the ingredient with a fork until you can make a ball with the dough. wrap the ball in plastic wrap and let it chill for 30 minutes. Make the filling:
1 19 oz can pineapple, juice reserved (canned, not fresh)
1 Tbs agar-powder
1/2 cup cashews
1.5 cups vanilla soymilk
1 capful coconut extract
1/2 cup sugar
1/8 tsp Kal Stevia
juice of 2 limes
Drain the pineapple juice and mix it with the agar powder in a saucepan. Let it sit for 5 mins or so.
Put the remaining ingredients in a strong blender and blend until totally smooth.
Turn the heat to hi and bring the agar and juice to a boil, whisking constantly. Add this mixture to the cashew mixture and chill for several hours.
Pre-Heat the oven to 425. I used my convection toaster oven.
Roll out the dough and fit into tart or pie pan. Prick holes all over with a fork, then bake for 10 minutes. If you don't have a convection feature, bake for around 15 minutes.
let the shell cool, add the chilled filling.. (you may need to whiz it up again in the blender or food processor to get it nice a smooth)
Top with coconut, blueberries or any other fruit you desire. Mango would be out of this world.
I also made an Enchilada bake for lunch today. I served it with a simple salad. The dressing is tofu based "honey" mustard using a bit of apple cider and maple syrup to sweeten it.

The Best of Innovation Award will be awarded to the highest-rated product in each category, as long as that product surpasses a previously-determined minimum score.

Becoming a part of the CES Innovation Awards is not hard, but you still may have questions. We've answered a few common questions below.
Who is eligible to enter?
Anyone who manufactures, designs, engineers or promotes consumer electronics (CE) products marketed in the United States, or is an authorized agent of the organization or individual, that is authorized to submit entries.
What is the difference between Best of Innovation and the Honoree awards?
In the Innovation Awards program, there are two levels of Honorees. The first level is Honoree, and only a fraction of the products entered achieve this title. The second level, Best of Innovation, is a more exclusive award that is given to the highest-rated product in each category, as long as that product scored above a pre-determined score threshold. If the highest-rated product in a certain category did not pass the Best of Innovation score threshold, that category has no Best of Innovation award.
My company is a brand new startup with only a few employees and nothing but a prototype that hasn't hit the market. Do I stand a chance of receiving an award?
Absolutely! The wonderful thing about the Innovation Awards is that a product's score is based on engineering and design qualities, innovation and value provided to the consumer. We admire brilliant products, so there's no difference if your company has been around for a month or a century, operates globally or locally, or has 10 employees or 10,000.
What is the Innovation Showcase?
The Innovation Showcase is a designated area of the show floor at the International CES where the Honoree products are on display for the world to see. It is a very high-traffic area and one of the most popular destinations at CES. Innovation Honoree products are encouraged to send a product sample to the area for display, free of charge, as long as the company is a CES exhibitor.
My product fits into multiple categories; which should I enter?
If you are only able to submit one entry, select the category that most completely encompasses your product, or in which you feel your product is most accurately described. However, we welcome you to submit the product into multiple categories, if you prefer. Each category is judged independently, so well-designed products often receive awards in multiple categories. A separate entry fee is required for each category entered.
Can an entry submitted last year be submitted again this year?
Entries submitted last year are most likely ineligible for submission this year, since the competition is limited to new products that become available to consumers from April 1, 2014 and no later than April 1, 2015. However, if you have developed a new model of the product that you feel is innovative and enhances the original product, you may submit an entry for the new model.
Do I have a word limit for questions on the entry form?
On the product-specific questions, we impose a limit of 500 words. You may also upload the technical specification sheet for your product. If you do not have a specification sheet, you may provide the same data in your own words (1,000 character limit).
What happens if my entry is not complete?
An entry is qualified for judging when all required sections are completed, images are included, and all entry fees have been paid. While CEA is not responsible for the follow-up of incomplete entries, we will attempt to notify entrants of the status of their entry. Ultimately, it is the entrants' responsibility to ensure the entry is complete. Unpaid entries will be disqualified. Entry fees are non-refundable.
If I secure space for CES after submitting my Innovation Awards entry, can I receive a partial refund on my Innovation Awards entry fee?
If you are not a CES exhibitor at the time that you submit your Innovation Awards application, you can still become an official exhibitor and receive a partial refund up until October 13, 2014. After October 13, we are unable to issue partial refunds. Contact us at email@example.com for more information on receiving a refund.
When will I find out if my product has been selected to receive an award?
All applicants will be notified by email on October 14, 2014 of their award status. If selected as an Honoree, you are requested to confirm information included in your entry. It is essential that we receive this information for the Honoree announcement at CES Unveiled New York on November 11, 2014.
Are there sponsorship opportunities for Innovations?
Yes. Please contact us at email@example.com
The 2015 CES Innovation Awards Call For Entries is now closed.

A Taco Bell parking lot in Warren was the starting point Wednesday for hundreds of fast food workers who marched down Eight Mile demanding higher pay.
Fast food workers are frustrated.
"We can't raise our children off $7.40. It's hard to survive. You can't pay bills," said Shaniee Stitt, who works at the Taco Bell. "You can barely eat."
Workers point out that the average full-time fast food employee makes $15,392 annually compared to an estimated $200 billion in annual industry earnings.
Along with higher wages, workers also want better working conditions and the right to unionize.
"When we all come together, we can get things done," said protest organizer Rev. Charles Williams. "The change will come not just in Detroit, but all over this country."
The restaurant industry says higher wages would hurt job creation.
Protests are being held in seven states this week, including at more than 80 sites in metro Detroit and Flint.
This was not the first such strike in Michigan. Some workers at about 50 fast food restaurants in the Detroit area walked off their jobs in May as part of the effort.

Latest Astrill Application In Bypassing Internet Censorship
Astrill VPN provides professional fast and secure VPN service that can unblock websites in certain countries and protects your privacy on-line and makes you anonymous all the time while surfing on the net.
It is just for everyone, no complicated setup tutorial with easy few-step installation – and you are good to go – that's Astrill VPN. The application works on Mac. Windows and Linux.
Good news! The latest Astrill Application has many features.
The Smart Mode. Smart mode can speed up your surfing. It is only avtivated once you visit those blocked websites. For example. Google.com and CNN.com are available but Facebook and Youtube are unavailable. If you visit CNN on Google.com, the Astrill Application will not let you gp through the VPN server, therefore you get better surfing speed. Once you check out Facebook.com and Youtube.com, the Astrill Application will automatically detective these websites are blocked and let you go through the VPN server.
Browser Selection is another feature application of latest Astrill VPN that select individual browsers you want to use Astrill with. If you will save 2 browsers in your computer, Internet Explorer and Mozilla Firefox, then you can set Astrill only you go through Firefox, therefore when you use Firefox, you use VPN, once you use traditional VPN, no matter what browser you use , you always go through VPN server.
I do love Astrill as it also works great on mobile devices like iPad, iPod touch, Apple Iphone as well as Google Android. However, you have to set it up manually, but don't worry, it's very simple.
I have reviewed a wide range of free and paid anonymity services such as VPN and Proxy based solutions to bypass internet censorship with ease until new anonymity service named Astrill arises to raise the bar in already competitive internet censorship bypassing solution market.
With Astrill you can bypass any kind of firewall or filtering and use Wi-Fi on puclic places with safety as nobody will be able to spy into the encrypted data stream.
If I were you, I'll rather head to http://www.bestvpnservicemag.com/astrill-vpn-review/ to get see more amazing feautures of Astrill… or check out http://www.bestvpnservicemag.com/internet-censorship-by-country-list-vpn/ to see what another VPN can bypass internet censorship.

MEDICAL LAKE, Wash - It's not the way members of the Lake City Assembly of God expected to spend their Sunday; instead of attending services, they were canceled in the wake of a $50,000 vandalism spree throughout two church buildings that was committed late Saturday or early Sunday.
The suspect (s) kicked 12 doors off the frames, shattered a front glass window, took a shovel to a soda machine, ripped down a sound board, shattered glass vases into the pews, poured soda into a keyboard, sprayed fire extinguishers in kitchens and spray painted the words "F*** you God" and "Die" inside a classroom.
But the crook apparently wasn't in a rush; he or she took the time to make a latte at the coffee bar, cook up a hotdog, and grab a soda. Snacks that are now evidence, as the Spokane County Sheriff's Office took fingerprints off the can and footprints from the blanket of fire extinguisher spray.
The church is calling it a "hate crime," and about 40 volunteers spent Sunday cleaning up much of the mess. But some of it will take much longer – for instance, the fire extinguishing spray got into the HVAC system, and now that has to be cleaned so it's not a health hazard. For now, services will be moved into the gym.
The Spokane County Sheriff's Office tells KHQ the detective on the case does have a lead as far as a suspect(s), but no arrests have yet been made. A reward will be offered for information leading to an arrest through Crime Stoppers.
But through all the damage and clean up still do to, the church practices what it preaches:
"We forgive them, we love them, and we know in life everyone makes bad choices. That's why we exist, is to share with people that there's always a path forward to forgiveness."

LiveSOMERSET FLOODS: Heavy rain expected on Friday
This live event has finished
- More severe rain on the way
- Utility firms urged to suspend bills for flood evacuees
- Two severe weather warnings still in place for Somerset
MARY Mackay, who also lives next to the affected stretch of road, is worried that inconsiderate drivers could be making the situation on New Road in Ilminster worse.
She said: "Up here on the Beacon the road has been closed due to serious road 'slumping' - too soon to say land slip but give it time.
"There are cracks you can get your fingers in and it is steadily getting worse.
"But, despite the police road closed signs for the short stretch motorists just get out, move the signs and drive on through. This may account for it getting worse more quickly, especially the lorries driving through - they are heavy.
"The police have been up at least three times to my knowledge to replace the signs and I have not been here all the time.
"We neighbours have also been putting them back too when we walk down to be nosey!
"I hope drivers realise that they invalidate their insurance, never mind adding to the risk of landslip to the homes directly opposite.
"Also if the steep hill were suddenly to give way they would be at the bottom very quickly and probably not the right way up and certainly injured."
NEW Road in Ilminster has been closed over fears of a road slip.
A police spokesman said: "It will be closed for some time, as there is clear evidence that the road is subsiding along a 50- to 80-metre stretch, and is therefore dangerous.
"There are clearly visible cracks, many metres long, on both sides, some as deep as three inches and two inches wide where it is falling away.
"Highways have been notified and are due to carry out an inspection at any time."

PAUL Fuller, president of the Chief Fire Officers Association, visited flood-hit areas of Somerset yesterday (Wednesday) to see the prolonged challenges facing Devon & Somerset Fire & Rescue Service.
He said: "The valiant efforts of fire crews in Devon, Somerset and other services across the country, who have been working tirelessly to help those affected by flooding should be recognised and applauded.
"In the face of exceptionally poor weather conditions, they have provided invaluable assistance to people whose lives and livelihood are under threat."
DSFRS have been involved from the start six weeks ago pumping out properties, setting up ferry services, helping to move people, belongings and livestock to safety.
Lee Howell, DSFRS Chief Fire Officer, said: "I am immensely proud of the efforts of partners and my staff who remain actively engaged in dealing with this incident and in reducing the impact and associated distress to residents of Somerset.
"I am also very grateful for the mutual aid provided by other fire and rescue services who are supporting us locally."
All supplies to #BishopsLydeard have now been restored. Really sorry for the inconvenience. Ellie— @wpduk 13 February 2014

THE Environment Agency is warning people on the Somerset Levels of possible further flooding with heavy rain expected on Friday into Saturday.
There is continued high flood risk on the Somerset Levels and Moors, where a major operation to pump away floodwater is taking place.
The Environment Agency has teams out on the ground making sure blockages are removed from rivers, supporting the deployment of sandbags by local authorities, and working to put up temporary defences.
To support the ongoing response to the extreme weather and extended flooding, additional temporary flood defences have been ordered from Sweden and the Netherlands to ensure as many communities as possible are protected.
Paul Leinster, chief executive of Environment Agency, said: "We are continuing to see the very real and devastating impacts that flooding can have on communities and business.
"We know the distress that flooding can cause and are doing everything we can to reduce the impacts.
"Some communities will see a brief respite today, but unfortunately the risk of flooding will continue. We ask people to remain vigilant and take action were necessary.
"We expect to see river levels rising again with more rain forecast for Friday and Saturday.
"Environment Agency teams are working round the clock to help protect homes, businesses and communities. By clearing blockages from rivers, and deploying temporary defences we have helped to protect homes which may otherwise have seen flooding.
"I urge the public to sign up to our receive free flood warnings, check their flood risk, and keep up to date with the latest situation on the Environment Agency website and on social media using #floodaware."
.@stevenmorris20 We hope to start pumping at Dunball at 3pm today, all being well— @EnvAgencySW 13 February 2014
SOME 300 people from villages on the Somerset Levels heard at a public meeting last night of the steps being taken to protect their homes.
Representatives from the Environment Agency, police and local councils attended the meeting at The Canalside conference centre in Huntworth, near Bridgwater.
Melvin Wood, a floods technical specialist from the Environment Agency, gave a presentation on the latest pumping strategy, which aims to move millions of gallons of water from the Levels into King's Sedgemoor Drain and out to sea.
He also explained how the huge additional pumps and building of an earth bank at Huntworth will help to manage the flow of water.
Concerns were raised by villagers about funding, security of empty homes, difficulty in using the police 101 number, and about the length of time taken for additional pumps to be put into action.
Residents were reassured additional police resources would be deployed "24/7" to protect vulnerable communities and the communication problems would be addressed.
EA area manager for the South-West, Nick Gupta, said the Government had pledged additional cash which would allow dredging, as soon as ground conditions allowed.
There will now be weekly drop-in surgeries where people can speak to representatives from various agencies.
The first will be at the Canalside today from 2pm to 7pm and then weekly on Wednesdays between 6pm and 8pm.
THE Wurzels and Mad Dog Mcrea are performing a benefit show in aid of the flood victims in Somerset.
All proceeds from the concert at The Palace, Bridgwater, on Thursday, March 20, will go to the Somerset Flood Relief Fund and the Royal Agricultural Benevolent Fund Institution.
Tickets at £12.50 in advance are available from Strings 'n' Things, West Quay Records, Bar Brunel, The Palace; from the ticketline 08444-771000; from www.midnightmango.co.uk or on-line from See Tickets, TicketWeb and Gigantic – booking fees may apply.
AVON and Somerset Police Crime Commissioner Sue Mountstevens is visiting the flooding silver control centre in Taunton tomorrow (Friday) morning.
She will be attending the morning briefing and asking questions about 101 telephone number difficulties and how the agencies are working together and the longer term plan for residents.
THE Rotary Club of Chard will be collecting to support the appeal for flood relief at Tesco in the town on Sunday (February 16).

CALLS have been made today for utility companies to suspend the bills of flood victims who have had to leave their homes.
Somerset County Council yesterday announced flood evacuees would not have to pay the authority's portion of their overall council tax bill until they are safely able to return home.
And the council's leader John Osman, has now backed calls for utility firms to do the same after meeting with members of the Flooding on the Levels Action Group yesterday.
Cllr Osman said: "It was clear from talking to people in Somerset who have been directly affected by the flooding, and particularly FLAG, that this was a really good idea.
"I've heard stories that some people who have been forced out of their homes have faced hefty bills or have been asked to pay hundreds of pounds to suspend a service. That is not fair."
Speaking on BBC Somerset earlier, Prime Minister David Cameron called on firms to be "socially responsible" concerning flood victims.
Cllr Osman added: "As a council we took the lead by offering to waive the county council part of homeowners' council tax bill for everyone stranded or unable to live at home.
"We called on other councils and businesses to follow suit, and I'm delighted to hear that our Prime Minister feels the same."
BROADGAUGE Business Park, in Bishops Lydeard, is reported to be without power.
ALL homes in Bishops Lydeard are currently without power after a tree in Lydeard St Lawrence fell and hit power lines.

AREAS along South-West England are at risk of more flooding from rising river levels and groundwater.
Flood warnings and alerts remain across the South of England, with the Somerset Levels and communities along the Thames at high risk of flooding.
Public Health England is providing information on the potential health impacts before, during and after a flood as well as advice and support on the response and recovery.
If a flood has been forecast, pack a 'flood kit' in case you need to leave your home - remember phone numbers, insurance documents, bank cards and money; medicines and medical devices, hearing aid batteries, glasses and contact lenses; clothing, toothbrush and personal items. If you have a baby, pack nappies, clothing and baby food.
Prof Virginia Murray, PHE head of Extreme Events and Health Protection for PHE, said: "If flooding has been forecast where you live, listen to local radio or check the Environment Agency and Met Office websites for updates and news.
"Take action if flooding has been forecast in your area. Phone Floodline on 0345 988 1188 or 0845 988 1188 or your Local Authority if you have questions.
"If you have been flooded, or live near a river in flood remember that accidents happen in fast flowing floodwater so avoid walking or driving in or anywhere near floodwater.
In coastal areas and on paths near the sea keep well away from the edge as large waves and strong winds can easily sweep you off your feet.
"Water sports in swollen or fast flowing flooded rivers or in stormy sea conditions can be extremely dangerous and should be avoided."
If your home has been damaged by floodwater, consider staying with friends or family, or ask your local authority to help you find alternative accommodation.
Only consider returning to your home when essential repairs and cleaning have been completed.
Do not let children play in floodwater and take care if you or your family must go into flood water as there could be hidden dangers like sharp objects, raised manhole covers and pollution.
Wash your hands regularly. If water is not available use hand sanitising gel or wet wipes.
It's important when cleaning up after a flood to never use outdoor petrol or diesel generators indoors even in the event of a power cut.
The exhaust fumes may contain carbon monoxide which can kill in a confined space such as a home. Carbon monoxide poisoning can be fatal.
Also, after being flooded, remember not to turn on gas or electrics until they have been checked by a qualified technician.
Avoid eating food that has touched flood water or fresh food that has been in the fridge. Clean all work surfaces before and after preparing food.

Nightly homework in kindergarten seems like a lot, even if it is only 20 minutes. Wow. I'm glad they both had a good day and that the social powers that be are a little more in favor of DS since you were concerned about how it would go. How amazing! I remember seeing pics of them as babies when I first joined APA, and now they are in kindergarten! Not quite the same as parenting for 5 years, but wow, time flies.
My niece is applying to colleges this year, speaking of time flying. Her mom posted a pic of her last night that was taken 11 years ago, when she was 6. So amazing to see such a change from a sweet little one in a fish-print bathing suit to a glamorous young lady applying to MIT. Where did that time go?

Stephanie's Q & A
Who's your favorite sports team, and why?
My favorite sports team is, hands down, the New York Giants! I LOVE watching (and playing) football, and I support my home team! During football season you'll catch me on the couch with snacks and rocking my Giants jersey!
What's your favorite movie quote?
I've got tons, but here's one: "What makes you think this is my first time?" — Daniel Craig as James Bond in Skyfall
What's your favorite video game, and could you kick our butts at it?
I'm old school. My favorite video game is Sonic the Hedgehog for SEGA Genesis. And yes, I can definitely kick your butt at it!
Piercings/Tattoos (How many? Where?)
I used to have a bunch of piercingly, but now I only have my ears pierced. I've got two tattoos...one on my ring finger (a treble clef) and one on my lower back (two hearts).
What's the most embarrassing song on your iPod?
I've got a lot of funny songs on my iPod, but nothing I'd consider "embarrassing".
What's your best party trick?
I don't know if you'd consider it a party trick, but I'm pretty good at impressing people. Most people look at a pretty girl and think she's got nothing going for her but her looks. That's definitely not me. There's a lot more to me than my looks!
What's the most memorable pick-up line you've ever heard?
"Hey girl, are you tired? Cause you've been running through my mind all day!" That line is overused guys...get more creative!!
What's the worst job you've ever had?
Being a lifeguard. I think I took it a little too seriously and was WAY too stressed watching all of those kids at once. I ended up saving 10 kids in the span of two summers!

Tell us a joke.
Three drunk guys enter a taxi. The taxi driver knew they were drunk so he started the engine and immediately turned it off. He then said, "We have reached your destination." The first guy gave him money, the second guy said, "Thank you", and the third guy slapped the driver. The driver was shocked thinking the third drunk knew what he did. The driver asked, "What was that for?" The third guy replied, "Control your speed next time, you nearly killed us!"

My head's not flat!
By Jade
from Scranton PA
About Me Trendy/Stylish Dresser
I ordered this product to wear under scarves to add a bit of fullness, but it is just a flat round circle. There are no instructions on how to make it look like the one pictured. I am pretty crafty and the only way I could make it have any form would be to make it about 4 inches in diameter. Can not be used just flat-bunches up and slides under scarves,hats and wigs.
Bottom Line No, I would not recommend this to a friend

Versatile, easy-to-customize Zido carts have all the flexibility you expect from Anthro in a compact, mobile footprint. Choose from dozens of accessories and outfit your Zido cart to hold a complete computer configuration, a simple laptop, or small devices and supplies. The adjustable-height column moves the cart 30"-40" high so you position it at the right height for you.
Adjust the height of your Zido 30"-40" to find a comfortable height for you whether sitting or standing. Squeeze the lever and the pneumatic cylinder lifts the cap shelf to any height in that range. Release the lever and the shelf stays in place.
The simple Zido carts are available in multiple versions to fit your specific needs. Choose from two widths, 22" and 25", and a choice of cap shelves. The Lipped cap shelf has a 1/4" high lip that's high enough to keep items in place, but low enough that it's comfortable for keyboarding. The Flat cap shelf has no lip.
Zido carts hold 150 lbs to support all your equipment. The 25" wide carts are available in two styles, Heavy Load and Light Load. The cylinder on the Heavy Load carts is balanced to lift 27-41 lbs. The cylinder on Light Load carts is balanced to lift 16-30 lbs. The 22" wide carts are available in Light Load style only.
The column on the Zido Adjustable-height cart has holes in 1" increments to install options like shelves, bins, and cable management at exactly the right height.
Different Zido accessories install on the front or the back of the column to maximize your space. Here, the CPU Holder-Small Form-factor holds the computer on the back, and a shelf holds a printer, front. A Cable Management Hook (sold in pairs, shown just above the CPU) organizes cords for the entire set-up.
Zido's heavy cast metal bases provide a stable foundation so carts hold 150 lbs, and they're small to fit into tight spaces. The base of the 22"w cart measures 17"w x 17"d; on the 25"w cart it's 21.25"w x 20"d. Large 4"-diameter twin-wheel casters (two locking) take your cart everywhere you need it.
Use the Cable Bin and Surge Protector accessories (sold separately) to organize cables and provide easy access to power for all your equipment, then send a single power cord to the wall. Grommetted cord pass-throughs on the back and the bottom of the bin route cables safely and cleanly.

I don't make my bed either. Instead DH gets home from work in the morning and makes it. and later on in the day after he's done sleeping he makes it again. Working different shifts, we are not generally sleeping at the same time but he cannot stand walking past and seeing a messy bed.
I like stuff, DH is not good with change and hates clutter. So I am not supposed to buy stuff and bring stuff home unless I already have a spot for it.
He is really picky about how stuff looks and decorating. OMG we have been talking about the nursery forever and have finally agreed to not spend a fortune on baby furniture and make a trip to Ikea for a crib and dresser. Yesterday we picked up some paint samples and painted them on the wall in the room. Still cannot agree on which colors to use. i was hoping that putting them on the wall with the lighting that room gets would make the choice obvious but it's not yet. I have a wallpaper border for the room and we are thinking of that halfway up the wall and maybe darker on the bottom or lighter on the top. Or I could do one shade the whole room.

Deus Ex Veteran's 'Epic Mickey' Coming to Wii, Amazing Artwork Includes Zombie GoofyWarren Spector's rumored Disney-meets-steampunk project "Epic Mickey" is rumor no more, as confirmation and art have emerged by way of online resumes and portfolios.
Coming from the Disney-owned Junction Point Studios, Epic Mickey is being developed for the Wii, going by the resume of current Junction artist Tony Pulham. The resume has since been updated to remove the reference, with "undisclosed title" replacing Pulham's previous mention of "Epic Mickey (Wii Video Game)."
Little else is known of the project--rumors suggest it's a platformer--with Spector having previously cautioned that upon its revelation, fans would vilify the Deus Ex and System Shock veteran, accuse him of selling out, and act "like the world came to an end."
Meanwhile, former Junction Point artist Fred Gambino has posted several pieces of concept art labeled "Epic Mickey," with online postings from fellow ex-Junction artist Gary Glover sharing themes, locations, and even names. Furthermore, Glover's work matches descriptions of the Epic Mickey artwork glimpsed by Gamasutra last year.
Credit to superannuation for discovering Pullham's Wii-confirming resume and pointing out Gambino's work, with Glover's art making the rounds via NeoGAF.

The Ponzi queen of downriver is off to prison. It was an emotional day in court for victims of Rita Gosselin and her husband, Richard, but the Gosselins didn't seemed moved at all by their victims' tears.
Rita Gosselin showed no emotion as her victims told the court how the woman dubbed "Rita Ripoff" ruined their lives with her ponzi investment scheme.
"There's a lot of emotion here and it's caused me a lot of grief. She did it on purpose," said Dan Pulice, who lost $70,000 in the Ponzi scheme.
"I will pray that you find it in your heart and ask the Lord for forgiveness and make your wrong right by returning what clearly is not yours," said Michelle Flotte.
For the first time, Assistant Attorney General Kelly Carter released the amount of money Rita Gosselin nabbed. From her victims, Rita collected $2,473,739.
From mortgage companies, Rita and her husband Richard Gosselin took in another $1.8-million.
With the money still missing, some of her victims say Rita should do the max.
"I'll tell you what, if I got $3-million or $2-million in a hole, you going to put me in jail for five years? I'll go right now because in five years I'll come out and I'll have that money in the hole. Her kids will have it. Her grandkids will have it," Pulice said.
FOX 2's Rob Wolchek first exposed Rita Gosselin two years ago when her investors told him things weren't adding up. She claimed she had a thriving business buying homes for cash and then using her husband's construction company to fix them up and sell them for big profits. However, when we checked on the homes, they were run down and mortgaged to the hilt.
"The fact that you could stand here on the date of sentence after hearing several of your victims, several of the people that you victimized, and not shed one tear, not show one ounce of emotion," said Judge Annette Berry.
The judge chastised Rita for her lack of remorse before handing down a five to 20 year prison sentence.
Husband Richard Gosselin was given only twelve months in jail. He also showed little regard for his victims.
"I don't understand what I was supposed to do," he told the judge. "Was I supposed to cry?"
Well, here's something that may muster up some tears in Richard's eyes. He's got to pay the money back. At least $100,000 is expected from Richard Gosselin alone.
The judge thinks they're hiding money. Rita Gosselin was sentenced to five to 20 years. Now, here's how this works. Rita has to come up with at least a third of her victims' money before she'll be released from prison. Remember the amount is almost $2.5-million, which means unless Rita can come up with close to a $1-million, she'll be prison for the full 20 years.

(RNN) - Margaret Quinlan and Jillian Tullis, two assistant professors from University of North Carolina Charlotte, teach classes in health communications.
Between Obamacare and Republican Rep. Todd Akin's comments about "forcible rape" and abortion, the women have had plenty to study.
"We'll always be employed," Quinlan joked.
The two are surveying convention attendees about the perceptions of women's health care.
They say they came to the DNC because it was a short drive that they could make in a day.
The data won't be in for some time, but both say they're surprised men have similar responses to women, and know the issues as well as women do.
Quinlan said that women's issues are brought up every election because they are a vulnerable group.
"Yet women are a powerful voting block," Tullis said.
The two women said that there is a fear in politics that women will be empowered and in control.
"I do believe that conservatives are doing what they are doing in the best interest of women, but what we're hearing [at the DNC] is that women only know what's best for women," Tullis said.
The two also will visit the Occupy Wall Street protestors' camp to see how they perceive women's health is being covered in the media.
"We're aware that much of the data we're collecting is one-sided, but there is still value in understanding what people are thinking," Tullis said.

MIAMI (AP) - There's a new challenge facing schoolteachers across the country today -- as they face nervous and frightened students, looking for reassurance and answers following Friday's shooting that left 20 children dead at a Connecticut elementary school.
In Connecticut, state education officials are providing schools around the state with written guidance to help classroom teachers address the shooting in Newtown with their students.
One history teacher in Florida says, "It's going to be a tough day."
The superintendent of a Minnesota school district says a mental health consultant will meet with school officials today.
Many schools will hold a moment of silence today, and will fly flags at half-staff.
School administrators have pledged to add police patrols, review security plans and make guidance counselors available.
Parents look to ease children's fears, while also dealing with fears of their own
NEWTOWN, Conn. (AP) - In Newtown, Conn., and around the country, parents are trying to help their children return to school without fear today, in the aftermath of Friday's deadly shooting at a Sandy Hook Elementary School in Newtown.
The mother of two children who attend a different school in Newtown says she feels like "we have to get back to normal" -- but Kim Camputo adds, "I don't know if there is normal anymore." She says she'll be dropping her children off and picking them up herself for a while.
The mother of 10-year-old twins in a Miami suburb, Jessica Kornfeld, says parents need to hide their own fears. She says, "For them, you need to pretend that you're OK." But she adds, "It's scary."
She sat down with her son and daughter after school Friday, and explained to them what had happened. She told them they were safe with her. Her son replied, "But it could have been us."
Kornfeld says she drove the children to their elementary school over the weekend, hoping to show them it's still a safe place.

You can count me in!! We've been TTC for 8 months now, and it is so hard not to become obsessed about it! :) We conceived our dd in one month, so I fully expected it to be that easy the second time around. There've been a few disappointments along the way - I was so sure I was pg last month, (I kept staring at the test - willing there to be a second line!)... I know it will happen eventually... I'm just ready now!! :) Good Luck to everyone!!
