This cake was delicious! I made it in a bundt cake pan, and while I won't be doing that again because I didn't exactly like how the outside crust came out (I think it was the type of bundt cake pan I used), I did love this cake overall.
This is soooo good! Excellent recipe.
I made this for my family, we all love pumpkin. It was easy to make, with handy ingredients and my kids loved it. A big hit for us. The kids are already asking me to make it again.
Wow, this is a TERRIFIC recipe! I recently tried it and took it to work with me, where it got rave reviews and people begged me to make them one. So yummy!
This is a cake that tastes like pumpkin bread.The sauce was very good. It makes a lot and is very sweet . We are going to use the rest as a topping for homemade ice cream later. yum!

Reduce gas prices?
This is worth a try, if for nothing else than to show "WE" can collectively do something. That alone is impressive and gets attention. Read on…
We'll show you a gas boycott!
This was sent by a retired Coca Cola executive. It came from one of his engineer buddies who retired from Halliburton. If you are tired of the gas prices going up AND they will continue to rise this summer, take time to read this please.
Phillip Hollsworth offered this good idea.
This makes MUCH MORE SENSE than the "don't buy gas on a certain day" campaign that was going around last April or May!
It's worth your consideration. Join the resistance!!!!
I hear we are going to hit close to $ 4.00 a gallon by next summer and it might go higher!! Want gasoline prices to come down?
We need to take some intelligent, united action.
The oil companies just laughed at that because they knew we wouldn't continue to "hurt" ourselves by refusing to buy gas .
It was more of an inconvenience to us than it was a problem for them.
BUT, whoever thought of this idea, has come up with a plan that can Really work. Please read on and join with us!
By now you're probably thinking gasoline priced at about $2.00 is super cheap. Me too! It is currently $3.08 at Arco and Costco for regular unleaded in Salem , Oregon and climbing every week.
Now that the oil companies and the OPEC nations have conditioned us to think that the cost of a gallon of gas is CHEAP at $1.50 – $1.75, we need to take aggressive action to teach them that BUYERS control the marketplace..not sellers.
With the price of gasoline going up more each day, we consumers need to take action.
The only way we are going to see the price of gas come down is if we hit someone in the pocketbook by not purchasing their gas! And, we can do that WITHOUT hurting ourselves.
How? Since we all rely on our cars, we can't just stop buying gas.
But we CAN have an impact on gas prices if we all act together to force a price war.
Here's the idea: For the rest of this year, DON'T purchase ANY gasoline from the two biggest companies (which now are one), EXXON and MOBIL.
If they are not selling any gas, they will be inclined to reduce their prices. If they reduce their prices, the other companies will have to follow suit.
But to have an impact, we need to reach literally millions of Exxon and Mobil gas buyers. It's really simple to do! Now, don't wimp out on me at this point…keep reading and I'll explain how simple it is to reach millions of people!!
I am sending this note to 30 people. If each of us send it to at least ten more (30 x 10 = 300) …. and those 300 send it to at least ten more (300 x 10 = 3,000)… and so on, by the time the message reaches the sixth group of people, we will have reached over THREE MILLION consumers .
If those three million get excited and pass this on to ten friends each, then 30 million people will have been contacted!
If it goes one level further, you guessed it….. THREE HUNDRED MILLION PEOPLE!!!
Again, all you have to do is send this to 10 people. That's all!
(If you don't understand how we can reach 300 million and all you have to do is send this to 10 people…. Well, let's face it, you just aren't a mathematician. But I am . so trust me on this one.
How long would all that take? If each of us sends this e-mail out to ten more people within one day of receipt, all 300 MILLION people could conceivably be contacted within the next 8 days!
I'll bet you didn't think you and I had that much potential, did you! Acting together we can make a difference.
You have only the rights you are willing to fight for!

Comments about Ernie Ball 2246 Stainless Steel Regular Slinky Electric Guitar Strings:
Personally, I don't really care for them. They're supposed to have longer life, but for me it seems like they got cruddy pretty quickly. However, my hands do sweat a lot when I play. Yeah I know, wipe your strings down after you play. I do that. When I first put them on I thought the tone was awesome, but it went away pretty quickly. These also seem to have more tuning issues than my previous strings. Not to mention, they are a bit more costly.
Comments about Ernie Ball 2246 Stainless Steel Regular Slinky Electric Guitar Strings:
No matter what your playing style is these are the strings for you!!!Rarly have to change these babys!!!Stainless steel ROCKS!!!Keep it up Ernie Ball!!!
Comments about Ernie Ball 2246 Stainless Steel Regular Slinky Electric Guitar Strings:
It has been a week since i got this strings and everythings has change for the better, I was a little skeptical at first about how it should sound, cause I've never have used this kind of string, I had some preconceptions of the terrible sound stainless steel produce, but i was wrong! It has been one of the greatest things in guitar playing and it was worth it!
Comments about Ernie Ball 2246 Stainless Steel Regular Slinky Electric Guitar Strings:
If you like beefy sounding strings but don't wanna kill your fingers these are the ones for you! They have the sound of the skinny top heavy bottom strings, but are regular gauged! Since they are stainless steel they get a really tight beefy sound. Seems like they need tuning a little more than usual but that is ok. Really smooth feel, almost feel like flat wound strings because of the stainless. Also they give off a little more feedback than normal because stainless is a higher reacting metal with the pickups. Definitely recommend trying them out!

U.S. stocks gained ground Friday, nearly erasing the week's losses for the Dow industrials as investors started to look past the latest euro-zone debt drama.

For European markets, however, it was a different story, as the turmoil in Cyprus continued to damp sentiment.
The Dow Jones Industrial Average advanced 90.54 points, or 0.6%, to 14512.03 Friday, bouncing back from a 90-point slide on Thursday, which was its biggest one-day loss since Feb. 25. Cyprus's effort to secure a bailout from its euro-zone partners raised concerns about the region's woes this week.

"If you want to find a reason to stay away from the stock market, this week has given you yet another one: this Cyprus situation," said Art Steinmetz, chief investment officer at OppenheimerFunds Inc., which manages $208 billion in assets. "What is interesting to me, though, is the U.S. stock market seems to have shrugged off this latest issue very quickly. You've had continuing strong economic numbers in the U.S. this week. That's the more important story."
A deadline looms on Monday that could result in the European Central Bank withdrawing support from Cyprus's banking system. The Cypriot episode has led to losses for U.S. stocks in recent days. For the week, the S&P 500 fell 0.2%, just its second weekly decline this year. The Dow ended the week lower by just two points, or less than 0.1%.
"Europe is going to continue to wallow in misery for the foreseeable future," Mr. Steinmetz said. "They're still wallowing in the mud, and the U.S. is puttering along at a reasonable pace."
The Stoxx Europe 600 fell 0.1%, capping its biggest weekly loss since mid-November. Germany's DAX slid 0.3%. Demand for Treasury prices rose as investors sought a haven, sending the yield on the 10-year note down to 1.915%.
Some U.S. stock investors declined to position their portfolios defensively going into the weekend, a departure from past euro-zone crises.
"We had those kinds of conversations back in 2008, 2009 and parts of 2010, when the Europe crisis was much more uncertain, but have not had those kinds of conversations around Cyprus," said Patrick Kaser, a managing director at Brandywine Global, which oversees $42 billion in Philadelphia. "One thing that changed last summer was this idea that Europe was going to do whatever it took to support the financial system," Mr. Kaser said. "And the private sector of the U.S. economy has a number of tailwinds now that appear self-sustaining."
In addition to signs of recovery, bulls are pointing to continued stimulus from the Federal Reserve, said Paul Nolte, managing director at Dearborn Partners, which manages about $4 billion in Chicago.
"We're still seeing modest U.S. economic growth and a Fed that's got the printing presses going," said Mr. Nolte. He added he is having a harder time finding underpriced shares of large U.S. companies after the market's gains this year.

Detroit, MI (Sports Network) - The Detroit Lions finalized their roster on Saturday after releasing 21 players.
The team released guards Rodney Austin and Jake Scott, running backs Shaun Chapas and Steven Miller, wide receivers Corey Fuller and Matt Willis, tackle Kevin Haslam, and center Darren Keyton from the offense.
Cornerbacks Ron Bartell and Chris Greenwood, defensive tackles Andre Fluellen, Ogemdi Nwagbuo, Xavier Proctor and Jimmy Saddler-McQueen, linebackers Brandon Hepburn, Chris White and Jon Morgan, safeties Tyrell Johnson and Amari Spievey and free safety Martavius Neloms were cut from the defense.
Spievey was a third-round pick of the Lions in 2010 and had started 26 games over three seasons.
Also, punter Blake Clingan was released as he lost out on the job to Sam Martin, who the team drafted in the fifth round of this year's draft.
Tight end Michael Williams was placed on injured reserve.

NEW YORK (AP) -- The night busted open in New York City as Bruce Springsteen and other Rock and Roll Hall of Fame honorees helped Steven Van Zandt celebrate his Big Man of the Year award from Little Kids Rock.
Darlene Love, Elvis Costello and Dion were among the stellar performers Tuesday night at a rollicking benefit for the non-profit organization Little Kids Rock, an initiative that rescues music education amid public school budget cuts.
Bing: Elton John unveils video of John Lennon duet
Springsteen had some fun while presenting the award -- gleefully detailing their roommate days and Van Zandt's lack of housekeeping skills.
"What a liar," Van Zandt retorted with a grin.
Amid the musical blowout, Van Zandt and the other stars discussed the arts' role in fueling young minds and shaping character -- tasks accomplished through the thousands of musical instruments and the lessons made possible by Little Kids Rock.
Costello, before going onstage, waxed eloquently on the "mundane and magical" aspects of music, and its transformative effects.
Van Zandt said in an AP interview before the show that children might see a musical career as glamorous and fun -- "and it is."
But it also "requires a lot of work, just like any other craft. ... You need discipline and you need willpower and focus. And ... a lot of hours put into it," he said.
So, people might be surprised to know that Van Zandt, while concentrating on a multitude of parallel careers, can go three years without playing a guitar, and then pick it up again in a week or two.

"When you've been playing so long, you don't really forget how to play," he said.
"Well, that's not a good example for the kids, though," he conceded, laughing. "That's just me. ... 'You kids: Don't do what I do -- do what I say.'"
The charity named the award for E Street Band saxophonist Clarence Clemons in 2009, two years before he died.
Clemons' nephew Jake, who now tours with the E Street Band playing saxophone, lent heartfelt accompaniment to Little Kids Rock musicians from Franklin L. Williams Middle School in Jersey City, N.J.
Singer-guitarist Tom Morello, serving a blistering homage to Van Zandt's old anti-apartheid song, "Sun City," told the crowd how it helped stoke his own activism as a student at Harvard University.
Some bad-boy appeal came when rocker Jesse Malin climbed onto a table of people dining near the stage, singing as he traipsed in sneakers amid stemware on the tablecloth.
Besides working with Bruce Springsteen and E Street, and camping it up in mobster roles -- his most recent on the Netflix show "Lilyhammer" -- Van Zandt works as a record and television producer, radio host, songwriter and arranger, and oversees two satellite channels.
The self-educated music historian is also chairman of the Rock and Roll Forever Foundation, which is developing curriculum for schools. Not bad for a guy who endured his own school days as a self-described "freak," ''misfit" and "outcast."
"That was particular to my generation," he said. Now, being a musician is "acceptable. ... But it wasn't so respectable in the '60s."
In the long run, though, Van Zandt said music saved his life -- and he wants to return the favor. "It's why I support Little Kids Rock."
What a shame this should be a joyous time for a member of one of Rock and Rolls greatest bands but it is tainted by Bruce's support for the worst President since Jimmy Carter. Bruce shut-up so that we music fans can enjoy the songs. If you as one of the 1% feel guilty about having too much you can voluntarily turn it over to the confiscatory federal government for mismanagement but please do not try to convince any right thinking American to vote for Marxist Obama because his goal of taxing America into socialism is a form of fiscal servitude that Americans will not allow.

Some shows don't try to pretend they have any redeeming value beyond entertainment.
Based on its title, Oxygen's "Bad Girls Club" is one of them. The concept is "Real World" simple: gather seven smack-talking women in their early 20s who typically have anger/respect issues, plant them in a mansion with copious amounts of free liquor and watch the inevitable dust fly. There's no $1 million prize.There are no rose ceremonies or tribal councils. There are no judges or quick-fire challenges.
And Atlanta is home to the 10th season debuting tonight at 8 p.m. They spend a few weeks in a tricked out Buckhead mansion with a stripper pole and party hard. The first episode features Sweet Auburn BBQ food truck and Opera Nightclub and Mansion.
There's some hope perhaps that the women learn better behavior ( or viewers learn to avoid such behavior) but that seems like a stretch to make something meaningful out of something that isn't.
The women get nicknames – like they're rollergirls or wrestling characters. None are from Atlanta. There's:
- Paula "Hell on Wheels" from Chicago. "It's going to go down in the A-town!"
- Nicole "The Jersey Joker" from Fort Lee, N.J. "I have two notches; loud and louder."
- Stephanie "The Harlem Heartbreaker" from Harlem, N.Y. "I'm a stripper. I love women. I'm bi-sexual… I love drama."
- Alicia "Ms. Chi-Fly" from Chicago. "I'm going to run the house and everyone knows I'm going to run the house… I don't like blending in."
- Janae "The Houston Hellraiser" from Houston. "I like to party."
- Valentina "The Sexy Socialite" from Hyattsville, Md. "Some people go after the basketball players. I go after the owners of the teams… I don't get along with insecure b****s – or ugly girls." Yes, she sure likes to use the b-word!
- Shannon "Buff Barbie" from Portland, Ore. "I love nice things… I work really hard and nothing has been given to me. I went to military school. A girl will not fight me." (She's only 26 but…)
The most sensitive of the women early on? Janae, who gets drunk and then annoyed when Paula tries to help put her hair up in case she yakked and claps to get her attention. Later, she takes offense when Nicole says she isn't interested in visiting Houston.
The man behind "Bad Girls Club"? Jonathan Murray, who also created the first notable reality program "The Real World" on MTV in 1992. Believe it or not, it's in its 28th season (Portland, Ore.), outlasting every other MTV show to date, including "The Osbournes," "Laguna Beach" and "Jersey Shore." (By the way, Atlanta has never been home to any "Real World" season. Why?"It's a perennial runner up. We talk about it. One time, we thought it was too spread out. It felt like a lot of little villages. We weren't sure where to put the show. We did consider Athens, too.." It's still a possibility, Murray added. "Maybe it's time has come.")
He also works on the Kardashian reality shows. (Ka-ching!) "They're a real family that fights but always gets back together," he said.
In 2006, he pitched the idea of 'Bad Girls Club" with a two-and-a-half minute clip of job "bad girls" from past reality shows. Oxygen handed him a series, no pilot needed. "It was the easiest pitch I've ever done,' he said. "The idea was women living out their lives loud, not being apologetic for who they are and creating their own rules."
Murray isn't apologetic either about "Bad Girls Club." "Television is one of the most democratic institutions we have. People get to vote every day. This show has no ulterior motive. Luckily for us, there are a lot of people who like the show."
Indeed, it is consistently one of Oxygen's most popular shows year in and year out, drawing 1.5 million or more viewers (mostly younger women). In it, the seven "alpha" women are maneuvering to see who runs the house. "Who's going to take it too far and find themselves at the bottom of the stairs?" Murray said. "It's power plays like Washington D.C."
Most of those nicknames? Created by the production company to better keep track of the women.
Interestingly, as creator, Murray does not interact with the women. "I keep a healthy distance," he said. But he is deep into casting and following the storylines.
The show, he said, should have come to Atlanta earlier because it's an "urban"-focused show. The women, he said, "loved Atlanta. And we felt more welcome there than any other city. They weren't judged." Better yet, with all the reality programming in Atlanta nowadays, the "Bad Girls" crew caused barely a ripple. "We were not the biggest news in town," Murray said.
He encouraged the women to play out their dramas in the mansion, not in public. (Who needs an arrest?) Some of the hang-outs included Opera, Primal nightclub, Ru San's and (for the crew at least) Taco Mac.
Murray said this show is much less "planned" as "Real Housewives." "We give them a place to live and some opportunities to do fun things like kart racing. But we don't orchestrate action between the girls," he said.
Going back 35 years, Murray actually worked as a producer at WXIA-TV. "I lived in beautiful Sandy Springs," Murray said. (Home of the Atlanta Journal Constitution, too!)

"Spent 5 nights this past April. Wonderful time and a perfect spot. Our hosts had great amenities including bicycles, boogie boards, beach chairs, etc. Parked the car on a Sunday afternoon and did not get back into it until we were ready to return home. A perfect spot....near stores, restaurants, and of course, the beach! What a great time we had!"Guest: Anonymous Date of Stay: April 2014 Review Submitted: June 4, 2014View listing
"This house is absolutely beautiful! The pictures do not do it justice. It was perfect with plenty of space for the whole family to gather and alternately plenty of space for privacy.

As much as I like Bettie Page can you please mark this NWS on your title? I was actually coming to read the news about her death and wanted to show it to a co worker.
While we know what she she did in her career, your image was a bit unexpected...
I still remember when Bettie's career started, and always had a warm spot for her. Her carefree "spitting" in the faces of the sanctimonious made me proud to belong to the same species. Thank you for the memories, Beautiful...

Second, once the church was well established within Italian society, what prompted saints such as Dominic, Francis, and Clare to pursue holiness through voluntary poverty and preaching in the midst of cities? Third, how did Renaissance art and architecture both express the church's faith and manifest the power of particular church members? Additional out-of-pocket expenses include lunches, some dinners, and personal shopping. 3 credits.

History of American Musical Theatre -- AA
Professor Bruce Kotowich
Location of travel: New York
Course fee: $3,250
Students will explore the history and development of musical theatre by visiting the neon lights on Broadway. From the classroom in Dubuque to the theatres of New York in the second week of J-term, the course will examine the history and development of musical theatre as an American art form. Students will be introduced to the unique sites, smells and sounds of nearly 200 years of social, political and cultural interpretation as represented by the Broadway musical. Students will pay homage to historical sites and the ways New York and Broadway entertainment have both interpreted and changed the fabric of American culture. Students will also study great composers and then actually see the reflections, interpretations and imitations of the talented and colorful musical theatre greats such as Ziegfeld, Gershwin, Rogers and Hammerstein, Cole Porter, and Sondheim. Additionally, students will discover what it has taken for musical theatre to thrive through strategic partnerships, grassroots campaigning and the sense of community cultivated by New York's public spaces full of advertising and marketing campaigns selling culture. Additional out-of-pocket expenses include some meals and personal shopping. 3 credits.
El Camino de Santiago
Professor Dana Livingston
Location of travel: Spain
Course fee: TBD
Caminos de Santiago. Ours are misty stone trails through the same green lands that legend says St. James the Elder travelled during and after life. We will join the "Camino Portugués" as it crosses the Minho River into Spain. Into this same time and place we will weave the theme of modern human migrations across the Galician landscape, seeing and evaluating everything from evidence of the Celtiberian "castros" of the early Roman era to the emigrant/immigrant history of now. Throughout the trip we will investigate the efforts of Cáritas Diocesana. You do not need to know Spanish to take this course; we will be happy to challenge you at whatever level you do have.
On the Camino, we will be walking about 15 miles/day, probably in rather damp weather. Proper clothing is a necessity. Lodging will be primitive. Students walk a segment of the Camino de Santiago and acquire a detailed understanding of the pilgrimage from differing perspectives. This knowledge is seen through the lens of human migrations through a modern landscape, specifically modern immigrants, emigrants and the groups that engage them. How do the modern American pilgrim and the modern African immigrant move through this landscape; how are they received by the inhabitants of the place? The search for truth -- the pilgrimage -- involves sacrifice and service to others; in modern migrations there is sacrifice as well as service, we explore both in a setting that will expand the students' understanding of the human experience. The learning involved will be demonstrated in an electronic portfolio. Additional out-of-pocket expenses include all meals and some transportation costs. 3 credits.

After collaborating with many performance engineers in a RAC database, I have come to realize that there are common pattern among the (mis)diagnosis. This blog about discussing those issues. I talked about this in Hotsos 2014 conference also.
Golden rules
Here are the golden rules of RAC performance diagnostics. These rules may not apply general RAC configuration issues though.
Looks like, this may be better read as a document. So, please use the pdf files of the presentation and a paper. Presentation slide #10 shows indepth coverage on gc buffer busy* wait events. I will try to blog about that slide later (hopefully).
I will be presenting in HOTSOS symposium 2014 discussing correct methods to diagnose RAC performance issues. Very surprisingly, even very senior performance engineers make mistakes in their analysis while reviewing RAC issues. Come to my presentation and learn the golden rules of RAC performance diagnostics.
On December 11th Tom Kyte performed "AskTom in Moscow" for the second time (first time was almost three years ago in February 2010). I was there and enjoyed presentations, tweeted a lot about the content and in the end I've won a signed copy of the Expert Oracle Database Architecture (2nd edition, in Russian)!
The start
A glass for questions. It was full in the end of the day
Please join us at the DOUG (DALLAS ORACLE USERS GROUP) Oracle Database Forum meeting on Thursday, October 25, 2012 from 5 pm – 7 pm.
Presented by Riyaj Shamsudeen, OraInternals, & Sahil Thapar:
"Out with the old way, Enter dbms_xplan: A Swiss army knife for performance engineers"
Rough outline:
(i) Ability to query access path from memory, AWR repository
(ii) Ability to use cardinality feedback method to understand access plan issues. Few tips from a real world experience will be provided too.
(iii) Ability to understand issues with database links etc.
(iv) Options such as ADVANCED, ALLSTATS etc
(v) Why should you choose dbmx_xplan over tkprof+sql_trace combination?
(vi) Disadvantages of dbms_xplan and a quick introduction to dbms_monitor.
Refreshments sponsored by me :)
Quick note about Jonathan Lewis trip to Dallas: Jonathan Lewis will be presenting two day seminar on two topics, "Beating the Oracle Optimizer" (June 28) and "Troubleshooting and tuning" (June 29th).
The event will be held June 28-29, 2012 at SMU-in-Legacy in Plano, TX.
This is a must-attend event for experienced DBAs and Developers. Especially, if you are planning to upgrade your database/application in the near-future or if you are in the middle of an upgrade, you must attend these two seminars. This seminar series provide enormous value resolving complex Production performance issues.

Let's first discuss how RAC traffic works before continuing. Environment for the discussion is: 2 node cluster with 8K database block size, UDP protocol is used for cache fusion. (BTW, UDP and RDS protocols are supported in UNIX platform; whereas Windows uses TCP protocol).
UDP protocol, fragmentation, and assembly
UDP Protocol is an higher level protocol stack, and it is implemented over IP Protocol ( UDP/IP). Cache Fusion uses UDP protocol to send packets over the wire (Exadata uses RDS protocol though).
Quick blog post from Collaborate 2012 in Vegas. I'm only doing one session this year but it's a very long session — I've just done a deel dive on deploying Oracle Database 11gR2 for High Availability. It's a broad topic and my plan was to focus a lot on basic concepts and how they are [...]
If you are attending Collaborate 2012, you might be interested in my content-rich sessions below :
Session Number: 326

Session Date/Time/Room: Wed, Apr 25, 2012 (03:00 PM – 04:00 PM) : Palm A
Hope to see you there!
Update: I am uploading presentation files. Presentations are much more recent than the document
Just a quick note, I will be conducting next 2-week advanced RAC Training, online class in March 26-30 and April 9-13.
You can find agenda and other details here .
Update 1:
I received few emails about the training outline. You can find the outline below:
Update 2:
Yes, I do accept Purchase Orders and can invoice you
I just uploaded my presentation materials for 'Truss, pstack etc' for HOTSOS 2012 symposium , a performance intensive conference, happening right here in my home town Dallas, TX.
I can't believe, it is been ten years from the start of this annual conference! This is the tenth annual symposium and I have been presenting in this symposium for almost all years except few early years. Quality of presentations and quality of audience is very high in this symposium and many of the audience are repeat audience, almost this feels like an annual pilgrimage to "sanctum of performance". If you are interested in learning the techniques and methods to debug and resolve performance issues in a correct way, you should definitely consider attending this symposium. To top it off, Jonathan Lewis is conducting Training Day this year.

The craziest things happen at Prince Orlofsky's masked ball as the consequence of some earlier incidents. It transpires that once, after a drunken night out, Gabriel von Eisenstein left his collegue Falke to run around dressed in a bat costume. Now revange is on the cards. Eisenstein, who has been given a prison sentence for insulting an official, turns up at the ball without his wife. He tries to win the heart of a mysterious Hungarian countess, and does not realize that it is his own spouse, Rosalinde. She, on the other hand, has been following her own amorous plans. Meanwhile Rosalinde's maid Adele, disguised as an actress, is thoroughly enjoying the attention of the illustrious ball guests. The evening proceeds with a serious of mistaken identities and deceptions, only to be happily resolved with much champagne and dancing.

Eat, Write, Retreat 2012
Posted by Renee under Inspirations, Location Shooting, Studio Shooting
[8] Comments
Eat, Write, Retreat, a conference for food bloggers, was held in Washington, DC last weekend. This was my second year of teaching their Food Styling and Photography workshop with my longtime creative partner, stylist Lisa Cherkasky. This intensive full-weekend event draws attendees, speakers and sponsors from all over the US and Canada. In addition to our class, they featured workshops on creativity, business and culinary skills taught by experts such as author Monica Bhide and chef/author/entreprenuer Andy Schloss. It is organized by entrepreneur and "food blogger resource" Casey Benedict and author/nutritionist Robyn Webb. Having worked with Robyn on several satisfying projects, we were happy to be asked to present at her conference again—and we were proud to see one our collaborations, her Comfort Food Cookbook being gifted to conference attendees.
Our hands-on workshop this year had groups of students working together to compose one shot per group, made with ingredients supplied by a bevy of photogenic sponsors. There was an atmosphere of infectious excitement, creative curiousity, energy, and collegiality. Students' instincts proved to be very good as they tackled their hands-on compositions. Each group's project featured a single ingredient, such as the sponsor, Jarlsberg USA, the cheese pictured above. In their case, it gave us an opportunity for feedback from their publicist, Ronnie Campbell, of The Burrell Group, Ltd., who was in the class. She offered her insight into how they prefer to show off their product: Being able to highlight the distinctive patterning of Jarlsberg's holes is important, as is showing the cheese grated.
Students had a chance to select from a variety of props to complement them, some supplied by generous sponsors, the fabulous kitchen equipment companies, OXO and Calphalon. Similar to our set-up last year, I supplied my own basic lighting, as well as my laptop and camera, which were tethered to a projector. That way, we were able to show the shots as they were captured (via Adobe Photoshop Lightroom) on a large screen. Making their choices for food items and props, groups brought them to the stage and assembled them on the set we created on location in the event-hotel ballroom. As the groups gathered around the set (and shot many of their own photos), we discussed their work, offered suggestions and tips, and answered questions. I shot the students' initial compositions and showed them on the screen; then, Lisa and I critiqued and adjusted them to demonstrate why and how they could improve. Then, we were able to view final shots on the screen, as well as to compare side-by-side, before-and-after shots.
It was a fast-moving, intense class of 2.5 hours. I wish it had been longer so we could have covered more! Here are some of the other final shots.

Thanks to all of our generous sponsors for supplying the heroes for our photos. I also appreciate receiving the gifts they gave all attendees in our amazing swag bags!
Thanks also to all Eat, Write, Retreat blogger/students who worked hard in class and have given us your helpful feedback. So glad I had more time this year to socialize, which gave us the chance for some good one-on-one conversations, so I could learn more about what you all do and address some of your individual questions in the moment. It was a pleasure working with everyone. We hope you enjoyed class, learned new tips and techniques, and will be inspired to use the new insights in your own work!
(EWR attendees: If you would like to use any of these final images for your own post-EWR blog posts, please credit "Renee Comet Photography," and please link any of my photos to my website, www.cometphoto.com. Thanks!)

The first image released from the Gravity Recovery and Climate Experiment (Grace), a joint NASA-German Aerospace Center mission, graphically illustrates the sensitivity of the mission's twin spacecraft to changes in Earth's gravity.
Color gradations in the image measure changes in the distance between the Grace spacecraft as they orbit overhead approximately 220 kilometers (137 miles) apart. Such variations are caused as the spacecraft fly over Earth's uneven gravity field, for example, when Grace travels over mountain ranges or undersea trenches. Earth's largest spatial features (those covering the largest areas of Earth) have been removed from this image so that such smaller features can be highlighted. Grace's extremely sensitive microwave ranging instrumentation is capable of measuring variations at the micron, or millionth of a meter, level.
Data from this and similar images will be processed by the Grace science team to produce precise maps of Earth's gravity field. Preliminary maps of Earth's geoid, or mean gravity field, are expected to be available to researchers in the spring of 2003.
Dr. Byron Tapley, Grace principal investigator from the Center for Space Research at the University of Texas in Austin, said Grace is already dramatically improving our knowledge of the geoid. "Errors in previous gravity field models were due to the effects of using data from multiple sources with uneven quality and incomplete geographic coverage," he said. "In 30 days, Grace has exceeded the information gained in over 30 years of previous study."
Launched March 17, 2002, Grace senses minute variations in Earth's surface mass and corresponding variations in Earth's gravitational pull. It will map these variations over time. The monthly gravity maps generated by Grace will be up to 1,000 times more accurate than current maps, substantially improving the accuracy of many techniques used by oceanographers, hydrologists, glaciologists, geologists and other scientists to study phenomena that influence climate. The mission is currently in its commissioning phase and the satellites are collecting science data.
Grace is a joint partnership between NASA and the German Aerospace Center (Deutsches Zentrum fuer Luft und Raumfahrt, or DLR). The University of Texas' Center for Space Research has overall mission responsibility. GeoForschungsZentrum Potsdam is responsible for the German mission elements. The Jet Propulsion Laboratory, Pasadena, Calif., manages the U.S. portion of the project for NASA's Office of Earth Science, Washington, D.C. Science data processing, distribution, archiving and product verification are managed under a cooperative arrangement between JPL, the University of Texas' Center for Space Research and the Geo-Research Center in Germany.
For more information on Grace, see:
http://www.csr.utexas.edu/grace, or http://www.gfz-potsdam.de/grace.
Dr. Tapley, along with Dr. Michael Watkins, Grace project scientist at JPL, and Dr. John Wahr, Grace science team member from the University of Colorado, will report on Grace mission results to date during a press conference at the fall meeting of the American Geophysical Union on Saturday, December 7, at 2 p.m. Pacific Time. The press conference, "New Results from the Grace Mission," will be held in Room 112 of the Moscone Convention Center, 747 Howard Street, San Francisco, Calif. On or off-site interviews may be arranged through Alan Buis and Margaret Baguio at the phone numbers listed above.

News in Brief
delays: Second meeting set for tonight
Following last month�s meeting with government, railroad and state officials, the city of Blaine has scheduled a follow-up meeting with the Department of Homeland Security (DHS) to further discuss the train delays at the junction of Bell Road and Peace Portal Drive. The meeting has been scheduled for Thursday, November 20 at 7 p.m. at city hall. DHS officials will be joined by additional representatives from Washington D.C. The rail Vehicle and Cargo Inspection System (VACIS) was installed in early September as an added measure of national security following September 11; however, the increased inspection of rail cargo has caused traffic delays and concerns over public safety.
for Humanity dedication this weekend
The first home built by Habitat for Humanity (HFH) will be dedicated on Saturday, November 22 at 10 a.m. The home, built at 940 Cedar Street, will house the family of Mark and Debbie Heinzer and their three children. Members of the community and city officials will be present, as well as the family. A second plan for a HFH home in Blaine is currently in the works. Any families wishing to apply for a home, or anyone wanting more information, can call the Whatcom County chapter of HFH at 715-9170 or visit online at www.hfhwhatcom.org.
school student found with 16-inch knife
High school administrators reported finding a student in possession of a knife on campus, according to Blaine police reports. An officer investigated, interviewed the student and impounded a double-edged 16-inch dagger and a used marijuana smoking pipe from the 15-year-old male student. He claimed he had forgotten the items were in his daypack. School officials became aware of the knife when the student started showing it to his friends in the school building and they took immediate action. The student was placed on emergency expulsion and the police department forwarded charges to the juvenile prosecutor.
Sound Basin gets $350,000 for marine study
Congresswoman Jennifer Dunn announced earlier in the week that the U.S. House of Representatives approved a request for $11.1 million for water and habitat conservation projects in Washington state, among them $350,000 for the Puget Sound Nearshore Marine Habitat Restoration Study. The money will be used to identify the most cost effective habitat restoration projects for salmon recovery in the entire Puget Sound Basin � a project administered by the Army Corps of Engineers. �The local projects supported by this funding best illustrate how communities can support critical habitat initiatives while addressing their water management needs,� Dunn said.
evaluate harbor water quality
The Whatcom County Marine Resources Committee (MRC) is partnering with the Port of Bellingham and Drayton Harbor Shellfish Advisory Committee (DHSAC) to evaluate the effects of bird and rat populations on water quality in the Blaine Marina. Due to various investigative efforts, the Blaine Marina has been identified as a hot spot for fecal coliform bacteria. The MRC began a project earlier this year, working in conjunction with the port and DHSAC to look at fecal sources in the commercial portion of the marina. The project involved evaluating the impact of fecal material from the bird populations, in particular seagulls, pigeons and cormorants, and the rat populations and implementing a pilot project to help improve water quality.
A variety of management options for the pilot project include stormwater low impact development techniques, integrated pest management for rats, and bird deterrent and bird relocation. The project partners will be working with a consultant and the Blaine community to evaluate the options and have updated community birding groups. One of these options will be selected and implemented as a pilot project in 2004, according to the MRC.
submissions beginning for annual exhibition
Artists are invited to submit outdoor sculptures to be featured at the seventh annual Peace Arch park international sculpture exhibition from May 1 - September 30, 2004. A panel of international art experts and international park management will jury the exhibition. The criteria for selecting the art for exhibition includes artistic impression, quality, durability, aesthetic appeal, and park and community appropriateness. All materials must be completely weatherproof and suitable for public viewing. Since 1998, the Peace Arch Park International Sculpture Exhibition has featured over 62 sculptures created by 46 American and Canadian fine artists. The exhibit is presented by the United States Canada Peace Anniversary Association, in cooperation with Washington State Parks. For further information, contact Christina Alexander at 332-7165 or email email@example.com.
of Bellingham approves 20-year lease
The Wood Stone Corporation and the Port of Bellingham will embark on a $4.9 million project that will nearly double the size of the company�s manufacturing facility and add 40 new family-wage jobs to the community. The board of commissioners approved a 20-year lease with the local company that manufactures high-end wood and gas fired hearth ovens for restaurants and homes. The expansion will add approximately 52,500 square feet to the facility. The company is located in the former Ice Arena Building in the Airport Industrial Park.

While studying engineering at the
University of Maryland, Dr. Greg
Rose, Davenport '96, discovered his
love of golf—and it was because of
golf that he discovered chiropractic.
"I worked at a local golf course
and got to know some of the
golfers," said Dr. Rose. "It turned
out that they were chiropractors."
Laughing, he added, "With chiropractors,
it's usually one of two
things: they either want you to be
their patient or become a chiropractor
After Dr. Rose graduated from
Palmer, he opened his practice,
Advantage Golf, in Bethesda, Md.,
and offered care only to golfers.
This led to the opening of his fitness
center, Club Golf, in Gaithersburg,
Md. "Everybody told me I
was crazy," he said. "But within
four years, we had 3,000 patients."
A chance meeting with Pete Uihlein,
son of Titleist CEO Wally Uihlein,
ended up with him relocating to
California. In talking with the elder
Uihlein, Dr. Rose told him that he
believed that the innovative techniques
they were using at Advantage
Golf were the future of golf. That
was when Wally Uihlein invited him
out to the Titleist headquarters.
Together, Dave Phillips, a faculty
member of the PGA of America,
and Dr. Rose proposed taking
Titleist's club fitting expertise to
the next level by incorporating
the physical attributes of the body
and swing technique to improve
a golfer's game and wellness
factors. What they proposed
would turn into the Titleist
Performance Institute, which
they co-founded in 2002.
Now Dr. Rose and Mr. Phillips are
part of the hands-on team creating
the ultimate golf experience. In
addition, Dr. Rose teaches seminars around the world
on golf biomechanics and video swing analysis for
isolating physical limitations (using computerized
three-dimensional motion capture models of the
golf swing). He also co-hosts the weekly Golf Fitness
Academy on the Golf Channel.

GENERIC NAME: methimazole
BRAND NAME: Tapazole, Northyx
DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Methimazole is used to treat an overactive thyroid gland (hyperthyroidism). Grave's disease is the most common cause of hyperthyroidism. Grave's disease is an autoimmune disease resulting from antibodies that attach to receptors on thyroid hormone-producing cells in the thyroid gland and trigger overproduction of thyroid hormone. An enzyme (peroxidase) produces thyroid hormones, i.e., thyroxine (T4) and triiodothyronine (T3), by combining iodine with a protein called thyroglobulin. Methimazole prevents iodine and peroxidase from their normal interactions with thyroglobulin to form T4 and T3. This action decreases thyroid hormone production. Methimazole also interferes with the conversion of T4 to T3. Since T3 is more potent than T4, this also reduces the activity of thyroid hormones. The FDA approved methimazole in March 1999.
GENERIC AVAILABLE: Yes
PRESCRIPTION: Yes
PREPARATIONS: Tablet: 5, 10 mg
STORAGE: Methimazole should be stored at room temperature, 15 C and 30 C (59 F and 86 F).
PRESCRIBED FOR: Methimazole is used for treating hyperthyroidism. It also is used for decreasing symptoms of hyperthyroidism in preparation for surgical removal of the thyroid gland or before inactivating the thyroid gland with radioactive iodine. Long-term use of methimazole may lead to a remission of the hyperthyroidism.
DOSING: The initial adult dose of methimazole is:
The daily dose is divided into three doses administered every 8 hours.
The maintenance dose is 5-15 mg/day.
The usual initial children's dose is 0.4 mg/kg given in 3 divided doses administered 8 hours apart, and the maintenance dose is half the initial dose.
DRUG INTERACTIONS: Warfarin (Coumadin) works by reducing the activity of vitamin K and therefore the formation of vitamin K dependent clotting factors. Methimazole may increase the activity of warfarin by further reducing the activity of vitamin K in the body.
Hyperthyroidism increases elimination of beta blockers. Correcting hyperthyroidism will cause less elimination of beta blockers. Therefore, the dose of beta blockers may require reduction when hyperthyroidism is corrected. A similar reaction may also occur with digoxin (Lanoxin) and theophylline (Respbid, Slo-Bid, Theo-24, Theolair).
PREGNANCY: There is evidence that methimazole may cause harm to the fetus during pregnancy.
NURSING MOTHERS: Methimazole is excreted in breast milk and may potentially cause harm to the infant.
SIDE EFFECTS: Methimazole is generally well-tolerated with side effects occurring in 3 out of every 100 patients. The most common side effects are related to the skin and include rash, itching, hives, abnormal hair loss, and skin pigmentation. Other common side effects are swelling, nausea, vomiting, heartburn, loss of taste, joint or muscle aches, numbness and headache.
Less common but more serious side effects include a decrease in white blood cells (agranulocytosis) and blood platelets (thrombocytopenia). Symptoms and signs of agranulocytosis include infections of the throat, the gastrointestinal tract, and skin with an overall feeling of illness and fever. Since platelets are important for the clotting of blood, thrombocytopenia may lead to problems with excessive bleeding. Hepatitis and death of liver cells (hepatic necrosis) have rarely been associated with methimazole.
