Hello! It's Holly Marder here with another Homes With Heart column for you to feast your eyes upon. This month I'm taking you on a tour of the Amsterdam home of Desiree Groenendal of the Dutch blog Vosgesparis. Let's go! Oh and please click on any image to enlarge or pin to your Pinterest boards!
"Pure, simple, industrial and tough" are words that Desiree uses to describe her 85 m2 Amsterdam abode, which she has called home for the last 25 years. The blogger and stylist prefers to keep her Scandinavian style space uncluttered, clean and minimalistic, with strong Northern European references that rely on tough materials and high contrast. "I am really fond of the clean uncluttered look," Desiree says.
When Desiree moved into her apartment, it was apart of the newly converted former Eastern docklands, where she and her family were some of the area's first inhabitants. With two small children, the house offered a practical, large space for a young family. With her children grown and out of the house, Desiree has took the opportunity during the summer of 2011 to create a more open plan living, starting with the removal of several walls and doorways. The removal of a wall seperating the kitchen and living room, as well as one between the bedroom and hallway, was a decision that has resulted in one of Desiree's favourite features. "I love to see through from the kitchen to the living room and hall," she says. At the same time, Desiree had her kitchen remodelled, featuring sleek white cabinetry, a built-in fridge and storage unit, and a black chalk painted wall. "I liked the combination of black, white and a touch of wood, and the black wall brings in some depth," Desiree explains. She is now working on ideas for a light fixture above the dining room table, which will incorporate several pendant lights she has been collecting over the years.
The renovation was a swift process that was carefully considered, ensuring that Desiree wasn't met with any challenges along the way. "I think a lot and very long about things," she explains. "I had designed everything so I wouldn't come up against any challenges. You have to be very sure when you start breaking down walls." Though some 37 bags of stones were removed during the renovation, the efforts were well worth the results – a spacious home that offers stylish, open plan living in one of Amsterdam's most up and coming areas. "I love to have space," Desiree says. "I am fortunate to have an affordable home in a desirable area – the best of both worlds."
I have to write a post about a blog colleague, a lovely lady, known as Bloesem but for those of you who really know her, she is Irene Hoofs and is simply a doll through and through. She worked with me on a previous Blogging Your Way e-course and did a bang up job, too. She's just one of those people that is kind, gentle and is a genuine champion of others and their work. She's always been so supportive of me and so in return I thought I'd shout her out and share a glimpse into her most recent project – the Bloesem Creative Space in lovely Singapore – part shop, teaching studio and workspace. Love!
Irene is Dutch but lives far away from her home city, Amsterdam, in a beautiful part of the world with her husband and two small boys. To take on a studio space with children, a blog and the other projects she works on (like her online store) is a real undertaking to say the least but she seems quite confident and content so far and I'm so proud that she just opened her doors. (And Irene, you look just wonderful in these photos!)
Above is a glimpse but you'll need to visit her blog to see more photos and to learn more about this space and her intentions for it.
Irene – my heartfelt congrats to you and your business, your creative space is wonderful and I wish you all the luck in the world! xo – Holly

I have to share the amazing work of potter Bridget Bodenham! I found her on Instagram (follow her here) and have been love struck ever since. She is a potter who makes objects from clay, both functional and non-functional for display only in her studio in Hepburn Springs Victoria, Australia. Below is a glimpse of her studio from Oversize Me and some of my favorite images from her Instagram account that she took of her most recent creations. The first image is by far my favorite – I'd love to own both pieces to serve olives, oil, bread and cheese during a relaxing evening at home with friends – and of course, a bottle of Riesling! The tiny bouquet makes this photo even more appealing, doesn't it? A touch of pink looks so pretty in this arrangement. Flowers are the best accents when displaying food, at least I think so.
Bridget occasionally hosts open studio days – if I lived in Victoria I would definitely go because it would be such a relaxing and inspiring visit, I'm sure. Ceramics make me feel so cozy – from the way they look and feel to their smell as wet clay is being formed – it immediately takes me back to school when we learned how to use a potter's wheel in the 6th grade. I used to LOVE the smell of our school art room – the chalky paints and the clay together – and I still do. As far as Bridget's work is concerned, I particularly like her use of metallics and this stunning chain link piece below is one I covet because I'd love to display it in my own home.
After doing a bit of googling, I found that Lucy had the chance to visit her in 2011 and this interview was the result. Though it's a few years old, it's still a great read so please link over and check it out. There's another great write-up about her on the Broadsheet website, too.
Are you a lover of ceramics like I am? I have an entire cabinet now dedicated to the ceramics that I collect and noticed a few weeks ago as I was unpacking them to place inside that most of my ceramics are white! Do you collect white ceramics too? Are you more into colors? Do you have a favorite ceramicist you'd like to share? Add their link below to the comments section so I can check them out and possibly pin to my Ceramics pinboard on Pinterest. I'd really appreciate it!
Hope you are all doing great! xo Holly

Hello food lovers! It's Jewels again from Liz & Jewels with another episode of Food in Motion for decor8. I am super excited to share this months delicious food video and recipe with you – this time it's for a boozy concoction – yum!
Here in New York City it is covered in snow. The streets are icy and we have to watch our every step. The only way to identify our car is a white silhouette that is roughly the same size and shape. It's buried. We haven't used it in weeks! As much as I see the beauty in the white curtain that covers everything, I am looking forward to warmer days. I like hot summers, cold drinks, small clothes, large straw hats, secretly turning the AC off in our living room (my husband likes it cold)… Can't wait.
So this month's Food in Motion video is a message from me to the weather gods: Goodbye Winter, Hello Spring! I made a pomegranate sorbet with sparkling wine. It is such a refreshing, colorful summery dessert! I envision myself eating this in a few months on our fire escape that I call the balcony.
Are you guys ready to say goodbye to the winter? If so, try this: 1 pomegranate 1 cup of sparkling wine 1 lemon 4 tablespoons of sugar mint leaves Cut the pomegranate into a couple of large pieces. In a bowl filled with water peel out the little seeds. The water prevents you from having red stains all over your clothes and kitchen. Put all seeds in a mixer and puree them. Pour the pomegranate mash through a sieve to extract the juice and get rid of the larger pieces. Mix the pomegranate juice with the sparkling wine, the lemon, and the sugar, and pour it into a serving bowl. Freeze for at least 4 hours, stirring once after about two hours. Serve with mint leaves.
See you next month with another recipe and a video! – Jewels

Softube Trident A-Range EQ Plug-in - TDMThe Trident A-Range is a legendary piece of equipment. As only thirteen A-Range consoles were ever made, it remains a holy grail for sound engineers and producers around the world that hope to create works of art equal to those that were originally recorded on the A-Range — David Bowie's Ziggy Stardust, Queen, Elton John, the list goes on…The A-Range plug-in from Softube is the first and only native and TDM plug-in that has been fully endorsed by original designer Malcolm Toft and Trident Audio.The plug-in is a model of a channel on one of the original 13 Trident A-Range consoles. Softube chose to model channel 15 from the console at Sweet Silence Studio 'B' in Denmark, producer Flemming Rasmussen's favorite channel for recording lead vocals. Flemming also used it for the solo and rhythm guitars on Metallica's "Ride The Lightning" and "Master of Puppets", and Ritchie Blackmore's guitar on the Rainbow albums "Difficult to Cure" and "Bent out of Shape". The A-Range channel features four bands of equalization and high and low pass filters. The sound of the bands is often referred to as "colorful" and "musical". When running a hot enough signal through the original unit and boosting the bands, it is possible to get it to distort, the result is a hairy and effective saturation that is just right in some situations, and just wrong in others!Controls Authentic User InterfaceAn authentic aubergine color (well, as good as it gets on a computer screen…) and the exact same controls as the real thing (with the exception that Softube added the Saturation and the Output volume, and removed a couple of controls that weren't relevant for computer recording). SaturationThe distortion of the original desks is of course captured by the plug-in. Instead of using an input volume to drive the signal, we chose to use a Saturation knob instead — so that you don't have to compensate the Output volume all the time.Just set the Saturation to OFF if you don't need it, which will also make the native version more CPU efficient.Four bands of equalizationFour extremely musical bands of equalization. Each band has four selectable frequencies carefully chosen by well renowned producer and designer Malcolm Toft for the consoles at legendary Trident studios in London.Top and bottom bands have shelving character while the mid filters are bell shaped.Developed by Softube and TridentThe Trident A-Range plug-in was developed by Softube in co-operation with Malcolm Toft and Trident.Low and High Pass filters The ultimate problem solver.

Stay away from it!
Although it still appears promoted on many p2p sites this program has a big question mark – back in 2007 when anti-piracy organizations were in full effort of choking up p2p channels, the name ZipTorrent was mentioned as a possible decoy set by MediaDefender to the BitTorent users. Its purpose would have been to slow down popular downloads by leeching bandwith and spreading useless data chunks. So consider yourself warned!
Media Defender's website was pretty clear:
"Decoying and Spoofing are the most commonly known techniques that we employ. We send blank files and data noise that look exactly like a real response to an initiated search requests for a particular title."
However, since ZipTorrent hasn't been 100% proven the vicious tool of MediaDefender and since the group has tried to use other clients in the same manner we thought to offer a small review below.
This is a software that uses the opensource libtorrent, created by Arvid Norberg (and was created using pure C++ ).
Installing it takes about a minute and figuring out how it works, a little more than that. It comes with pretty much all the features a BitTorrent is expected to offer – an efficient search facility, multiple tabs displaying torrent info (and low memory consumption as well) etc.
When it comes to searching for your results ZipTorrent enables you to filter by seeders &leechers, torrent size, and other and includes a useful multi-server IRC implementation whose purpose is to help you get torrents automatically from bots or from other users.
Here are ZipTorrent's main features:
Includes built-in Bandwidth Wizard to get the most out of your download speeds;
Includes built-in chat so you can talk to your friends;
Includes built-in RSS news reader;
Includes NAT Wizard – if you are behind a firewall or a NAT configuration it teaches you how to fix it to speed up your downloads;
Little memory usage;
Uses BitTorrent protocol;
Rather curious settings such as "fake upload ratio mode", "no upload" and "safe fake download"!!!

speedy delivery, book arrived in condition as described. Would definately recommend to a friend.
I had to get this early edition book after reading Julia Child's "My Life in France" in which she explains how this "cookery book" came to being. This tome uses precise language yet it retains all of Julia's wit and charm. As a reference, it is very user friendly and unintimidating because Julia is there guiding every step. It is not just a cook book but a piece of culinary history.

Usually I do not do reviews on movies, but as this movie is based on a classic, I have made an exception. I absolutely adored this movie. I an a real Victorian buff (although my knowledge in more for the 1870's, but the turn of the century), and I loved the costumes. The one and only complaint I have is that the characters were modernized, but overall it was an excellent movie.

My first memory of storytelling was my father reading to me from 'The Hobbit' when I was a child, showing me the pictures and describing Bilbo's adventures in his own wonderful words. As I grew up he would continue to tell me stories, some were based on local myths and legends, others on classic literature such as Poe, and a few were entirely of his own creation. More than anything I owe my love for telling stories to my father, and the sense of wonder about the world which he encouraged me to explore. My name is Michael and it means a great deal to me that you have taken some time to read one or two of the stories I have written, born out of that imagination forged all those years ago.

You don't have to spend a fortune to get a good laptop. With each new generation, performance goes up and price comes down. So, whether you're looking for a thin-and-light ultraportable or a family all-rounder, you can still get plenty of bang for your buck.
We bought and tested 15 laptops, from 10-inch to 15-inch models, ranging in price from $492 to $1199, to see what your dollar can buy. The top scorers include five models that will handle whatever you throw at them and give you go-anywhere, all-day battery life for under $1100.
Looking for the right laptop to suit your needs isn't always straightforward. There's a bewildering range of shapes, sizes and features available, and not all models will suit your needs. Most cheaper laptops will cope with everyday computing demands, but remember they're cheaper for a reason.
We've tested a selection of currently available models in the low to very-low price range to suit varying needs. These include some very snappy performers and some slower, but still very usable, models at the low end of the price scale.
For those looking for thin and light models, there are three Ultrabooks and two convertible (hybrid) laptops with detachable screens for extra versatility. The models on test include a range of processors from both the dominant chipmaker, Intel and its main competitor, AMD.

How can one classify the Jets moves concerning the offensive line in 2007? Odd, thats the best way to put it. After spending a very large amount of money and high draft picks on two blue chip prospects in 2006, they completely gave up on continuing the building process in 2007. Whether it was overconfidence or just plain stupidity is a mystery, but what is a certainty now is the fact that Anthony Clement, and probably even Brandon Moore should not be starting on this football team next year. We know that Adrien Clarke is now a goner with his release yesterday. The front office needs to start from scratch and build a unit around Nick Mangold and DBrickashaw Ferguson, which it should have done last year.
The Kendall move backfired badly and turned out to be a disaster for the Jets. If one had to point to the most consistent problem on offense all season, it would hands down be the left guard position. In fact, the problems at LG all season can be directly correlated to the problems with the running game and injuries to the quarterback. If Jet fans remember correctly, it was Adrien Clarkes shoddy play that got Kellen Clemens injured in the Jets second meeting with New England. For in the words of Jetsinsider correspondent Glenn Bernardi right after that game: It was only a matter of time before (he) got someone killed.
Brandon Moore is nothing more than a serviceable player who could possibly make an impact on a studded offense line where he could benefit from everyone elses play. Bottom line is that hes not a difference maker. Anthony Clement was possibly the worst starting right tackle in the NFL last year, and Adrien Clarke showed why the Eagles gave up on him so quickly. In every single start last season, he looked overweight and slow.
So what can Jet fans look forward to in terms of fixing three out of five positions on the offensive line? Hopefully, a ton of action in not only free agency, but also the draft. The Alan Faneca rumors have been rampant, as have been several other key FAs, but were going to focus on several prospects who could come in and make an immediate impact for the Jets at guard and tackle. Keep in mind this is an excellent tackle class in the first two rounds, so its not a bad year to have a need at RT.
Jake Long, OT, Michigan: You know the name by now. Longs been one of the top 3 prospects for the 2008 draft since the end of the 2007 draft. Long plays with a nasty demeanor and is versatile for both positions. At pick six, he would be a good pickup, and at that point the Jets would have an obscene amount of money invested in their bookends. Its unlikely that Long will be there at 6 from the way things look right now though. Hes a consensus top 3 prospect from almost every angle, and with the value of prospects who can play left tackle at his level, its hard to see him slipping. Even if he got past the top 3, hes such a logical pick for the Chiefs due to their glaring weakness at LT, and they pick before we do.
Ryan Clady, OT, Boise St: Clady is one of the most intriguing prospects in this draft. An outstanding pass blocker with a huge frame, hes currently carrying a mid first round grade. Where Clady comes into play for the Jets is in the event of a trade-down scenario within round one, which isnt unlikely if you really think about it. With Tannenbaums history of moving up and/or down within any given round thus far, its not too far-fetched to see him trading down for more picks in an effort to acquire more talented bodies, of which the Jets are severely lacking. Clady in this writers opinion would be an excellent pickup for the Jets in that given scenario, hed be excellent value in the mid-first and is ready to start at an immediate position of need. Keep in mind though Jet fans, that Cladys strength is in pass blocking, thus the interior line would still need to be solidified in order to let Brick and Clady maximize their strengths.
Gosder Cherilus, OT, Boston College: You simply cant deny the linemen that BC has been cranking out for some time now. The Jets have been keeping a close eye on Gosder and its very likely that if the Jets stand pat with their picks in the early rounds, Cherilus could be their second round pick. He was a tad inconsistent throughout his senior year and also has a few character concerns, but the natural ability is there to be an absolute stud in the NFL.
Other OT prospects to keep an eye on and their possible draft position:
Jeff Otah, Pittsburgh - Late first to early second.
Chris Williams, Vanderbilt - Late first to early second.
Carl Nicks, Nebraska - Early to late second.
Oniel Cousins, UTEP - Mid second to mid third.
Brandon Albert, Virginia: Standing at a tall 6 foot 7, as of right now, Albert is the only guard in this draft class who could possibly get a first round grade. Some project him to be better suited for tackle, but one cant deny Alberts consistent and dominant play for Virginia the past several years. Jet fans shouldnt be surprised at all if Tannenbaum makes a push for Albert in round 2 if hes still on the board.
Roy Schuening, Oregon St: Now heres a very intriguing prospect for the Jets and a player most certain to be on Tannenbaums radar come draft day. Schuening is a notoriously hard word worker and locker room leader, the epitome of a Mangini player. Hes not the most consistent guard, but the talent is most certainly there and hes a naturally aggressive player with one heck of a mean streak and an excellent run blocker as well. If hes on the board in round 3, this is a very probable pick for Gang Green if hes on the board. Ive also been a personal fan of Schuenings for a long time, so Id be ecstatic if he was Tannenbaums third round choice.
Mike McGlynn, Pittsburgh: The other bookend of one of the best pairs of tackles last season in college football, McGlynn is most likely going to play guard at the next level. His versatility would make him an excellent asset to a rebuilding team like the Jets and his aggressiveness is exactly what this line needs. Though his upside may be limited somewhat from an athletic standpoint, his intangibles are second to none in this guard class and hed be an excellent pickup in the later-mid rounds, probably somewhere between the late fourth and early fifth.
Other OG prospects to keep an eye on and their possible draft position:
Eric Young, Tennessee - Late second to early third.
Chilo Rachal, USC - Early to late third.
Chad Rinehart, Northern Iowa - Late third to late fourth.
Kerry Brown, Appalachian St - Early fourth to early fifth.
Stay tuned for part 2 of this series coming soon!

While an investigation continued into the circumstances surrounding the suspected suicide of "MasterChef" finalist Josh Marks, he was mourned Saturday by Chef Gordon Ramsay and "MasterChef" executives who worked closely with the gentle giant during the show's third season.
"Just heard the devastating news about Josh Marks. My thoughts are with his family & friends at this tragic time," tweeted Ramsay.
A statement released on behalf of "MasterChef," its production companies, and Fox echoed that sentiment. "All of us at MasterChef, Shine America, One Potato, Two Potato and Fox are incredibly saddened by the news of Josh Marks' passing. He was a wonderful person and an incredible talent. Our hearts and prayers go out to his family and friends."
PHOTOS: Hollywood backlot moments
Meanwhile, the Chicago Police Department's investigation continues. Authorities have not yet officially released the identity of the man found dead on Chicago's South Side of a suspected self-inflicted gunshot wound. The weapon was found with the body.
But TMZ reported that its sources identified the body as Marks, 26, the sweet-natured chef that at 7-foot-2-inches towered over his competition during Season 3 of "MasterChef," making it to the finale, where he lost to blind competitor Christine Ha.
Marks' bright smile helped make him a fan favorite, but it appears to have also hidden a troubled side, as evidenced by a fundraising appeal posted on his website, which has not been updated since his death, and he struggled with a bipolar disorder.
Earlier this summer, Marks was taken into custody and hospitalized following a bizarre encounter with law enforcement in Chicago. It took five officers to subdue him as he made rambling statements about Ramsay and talked about being a god. It was a headline-making incident that reportedly led several sponsors to drop him.
Marks' death follows on the heels of several other high-profile incidents jarring the reality TV world. "Bachelor" star Gia Allemand took her life this summer. And, on a far less serious note, "Hell's Kitchen" winner Ja'Nel Witt did not take the plum job assignment offered her, allegedly due to personal problems.
Such incidents are rare. But they are nonetheless poised to revive longstanding concerns about reality TV show casting, and the wisdom of plucking men and women from quiet, and perhaps troubled, lives and thrusting them into the harsh spotlight for entertainment's sake.

Guido van Rossum created the Python language, which is one of a multitude of popular dynamic languages available these days, used by organizations like Google and NASA. Last Sunday, van Rossum, a staff software engineer at Google, presented at the PyCon conference in Silicon Valley, then talked with InfoWorld Editor at Large Paul Krill, elaborating on Python and responding to critics.
[ See InfoWorld's recent interview with Bjarne Stroustrup, inventor of C++, covering the latest the language has to offer. | For more news on software development, subscribe to InfoWorld's Developer World newsletter. ]
InfoWorld: You answered critics who said that Python is too slow. You said every time you try to write something in Python, it is fast enough. Why is there criticism that it is too slow?
Van Rossum: What people of course do is they pick a tool and they build something incredible, and as part of the incredible thing they're building, they're doing crazy stuff, and sometimes some of the crazy stuff involves doing a whole bunch of computation, crawling through a graph of a billion social contacts or analyzing a trillion email messages or whatever.
At some point, you end up with one little piece of your system, as a whole, where you end up spending all your time. If you write that just as a sort of simple-minded Python loop, at some point you will see that that is the bottleneck in your system. It is usually much more effective to take that one piece and replace that one function or module with a little bit of code you wrote in C or C++ rather than rewriting your entire system in a faster language, because for most of what you're doing, the speed of the language is irrelevant.
InfoWorld: Which is the current version of the language?
Van Rossum: There are two different versions out right now. There are two branches of the language that we're trying to unify eventually. We're trying to kill off the Python 2 branch, so that the last leaf on the Python 2 branch is Python 2.7. But you still see a lot of Python 2.6 and 2.5. With the Python 3 branch, the current release is 3.2, and we just released an alpha of 3.3, so in a few months, 3.3 will be available.
InfoWorld: What's the main attraction of the Python 3 branch?
Van Rossum: Python 2 had accumulated multiple ways of doing the same thing. Also, Python 2 had introduced a way of dealing with Unicode; when we introduced it in 2000, we were very proud of our Unicode support and the way it was backward-compatible. By the time 2006-07 rolled along, we realized that we needed a completely different approach to Unicode, and we couldn't come up with a way of making that new correct approach to Unicode compatible with the old version of the language.
That was one thing that made us think that instead of having point releases that are constrained by pretty severe compatibility requirements, let's have one new release, Python 3. We're going to clean up a bunch of things and we're going to throw away features that were already deprecated. Users will know Python 3 is incompatible with Python 2, but it feels still like pretty much the same language.
InfoWorld: If it's incompatible, do you have to recompile your Python 2 apps?

Minnesota is making significant progress in narrowing the achievement gap between white students and students of color, national test results show.
A group of business leaders from the Twin Cities metropolitan area heard about the opportunities and challenges presented by China's market at the China Business Roundtable Luncheon on Oct. 8 in Minneapolis. The purpose was to continue strengthening ties between the Minnesota Center China and the local business community.
Personal income in Minnesota plunged during the Great Recession, driven by a combination of job losses, reduced work hours, delayed raises, wage cuts and other factors. Many of those factors have reversed direction since then, helping to boost real per capita income over the last three years.
We've seen much evidence in recent months of a recovering economy in Minnesota. The unemployment rate is at a five-year low, requests for jobless benefits continue to slide and the state's gross domestic product is among the fastest growing in the country.
The Minnesota unemployment rate and job figures get a lot of attention when they are announced on the third Thursday of every month, frequently attracting front-page newspaper coverage statewide. Reporters and economists analyze the numbers and interpret what they say about the economy. While there are plenty of other ways to look at our economic performance, the monthly unemployment rate and job figures are arguably the most closely watched barometer in Minnesota.
Think of northwestern Minnesota as the state's sugar bowl.
Abundant ag resources – from wheat to sugar beets – fuel the region's thriving food processing industry. Sugar beets make a substantial contribution to the Minnesota-North Dakota economy. Standout food manufacturing firms include American Crystal, Dean Foods and Lamb Weston which together employ nearly 1,500 people.
Manufacturing is king in central Minnesota.
More than 28,000 people work in manufacturing in the region, making everything from gears to soaps to engines. Major companies include New Flyer (buses), Cold Spring Granite (stone products) and American Crystal Sugar (food products).
Twenty-two members of the Chicago International Trade Commissioner's Association (CITCA), focused on opportunities and partnerships in the life sciences sector, were in the Twin Cities on Sept. 17-18, hosted by the Minnesota Trade Office.
CITCA comprises trade representatives from foreign governments that are based in Chicago. CITCA members representing Austria, Belgium, Canada, China, Czech Republic, Ecuador, Flanders, France, Lithuania, Macedonia, Mexico and South Africa participated in the Minnesota biosciences tour.
Southwestern Minnesota is the breadbasket of the state, producing 700 million bushels of corn, 140 million bushels of soybeans, 10 million turkeys and 5.5 million hogs annually. The region has nearly 26,000 farms generating more than $6.5 billion worth of commodities each year.
But farming is only part of the story in this remarkably diverse 27-county region.

Town will dispute city roundabouts
Date: July 8, 2009
by: Kurt Schultheis | City Editor
The Longboat Key Town Commission is not going to take any chances.
It approved spending up to $25,000 of taxpayer money at its Monday, July 6 regular meeting to hire a traffic consultant that it hopes will dispute the city of Sarasota's plans for six roundabouts on U.S. 41 near the bayfront.
The commission gave Town Manager Bruce St. Denis the direction after discovering the city has agreed to design and build a test roundabout at either U.S. 41 and 10th Street, or U.S. 41 and 14th Street, to see how drivers perceive it.
Worried that if the Florida Department of Transportation allows one roundabout it will allow them all, the commission gave permission to hire a traffic consultant to dispute the findings by the city's consultants.
"The purpose is to flush out the opposition with professional expertise that can point out flaws in the designs," Commissioner George Spoll said.
St. Denis said Public Works Director Juan Florensa is already in discussions with eight traffic firms, from which the town will choose.
But Commissioners Gene Jaleski and Hal Lenobel were not on board with the decision.
"It's a gamble, and I don't see gambling taxpayer money in the amount of $25,000 for a consultant that may come in and say roundabouts are an advantage for that area," Lenobel said.
Jaleski agreed.
"This is taxpayer dollars being used again during tough times," Jaleski said.
St. Denis, however, said a consultant would not be hired until the firm had reviewed the roundabout proposal and understood what the town's position was.
Although Mayor Lee Rothenberg said Florida Department of Transportation officials had encouraged him to submit a resolution opposing the plan instead of hiring a consultant, even the mayor disputed the advice and voted to hire a consultant.
The commission made the decision just days after receiving an e-mail from Rod Warner, chair of The City Alliance, a Sarasota coalition that supports the city's bayfront connectivity proposal.
In the e-mail, Warner says he "wonders why when facing a tough budget year, you would hire a traffic consultant given what is known and learned from other jurisdictions managing corridor traffic like ours."
Warner contends that roundabouts will move U.S. 41 drivers along the bayfront quickly.
But Vice Mayor Robert Siekmann told commissioners that the town needs expertise to fight a roundabout plan that is still changing.
"They first proposed this plan to make the bayfront more pedestrian friendly," Siekmann said. "Now, it's all about traffic flow because their first argument didn't fly with us."
St. Denis said the town's consultant would do its own modeling of the traffic model submitted to the state and could dispute the traffic counts used to get the results.
"If you want to make sure a decision is made correctly, you want your own consultant looking at the data," St. Denis said.
Rothenberg said there is value in having a consultant evaluating a proposal that calls for six roundabouts and slower traffic speeds on a federal highway.
"There will be plenty there to tear apart," Rothenberg said. "Because what we've seen is phony and a farce."
The Town Commission also approved a resolution Monday that officially opposes plans for the roundabouts on U.S. 41.

Inside Insights On Common Orthotic Dilemmas
- Volume 23 - Issue 4 - April 2010
- 9968 reads
- 0 comments
Dr. D'Amico subscribes to a basic orthopedic tenet for the correction of pediatric musculoskeletal deficiencies: the earlier one institutes treatment, the more favorable the prognosis. He says early intervention in the developmentally challenged foot leads to bony remodeling to more normal alignment or structure, according to Davis' law of soft tissue and Wolff's law of bone.1
Q: Have you ever discontinued orthotic treatment in a pediatric patient or are these patients "patients for life"?
A: Before he stops orthotic therapy, Dr. D'Amico says children must meet the following criteria:
• absence of visible pronation;
• absence of symptomatology;
• realignment of lower extremity osseous and soft tissue structures;
• normal lower extremity function (i.e. first ray stability, active propulsion);
• normal center of gravity and center of vertical force pathways;
• normal postural complex including upper extremity skeletal alignment; and/or
• complete skeletal growth.
Dr. Burns cautions parents that a pronated foot may need lifelong treatment. He tells parents it is their responsibility to allow adequate control while the child is growing. Then they can decide for themselves about symptomatic treatment after bone growth is complete.
In Dr. Burns' experience, 10 to 15 percent of children with excessive pronation develop fairly normal foot function without midstance instability before bone growth is complete and he discontinues orthotics for those youngsters. He usually sees those patients a couple of times over the next several months to confirm that their feet remain stable.
"It is difficult to say whether they might have developed 'normal function' without orthotic treatment," notes Dr. Burns.
Dr. Levine sometimes discontinues orthotic therapy in this patient population but not always intentionally. As he explains, if patients outgrow devices, they may be lost to follow-up. However, Dr. Levine says symptoms also may resolve, particularly if patients have growth-related issues. He adds that monitoring and follow-up can help the decision process.
Dr. Burns is the CEO of Burns Lab. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine and a Fellow of the American College of Foot and Ankle Surgeons. Dr. Burns is a Diplomate of the American Board of Podiatric Surgery.
Dr. D'Amico is a Fellow of the American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine. He is in private practice in New York City.
Dr. Levine is in private practice and is the the director and owner of Physician's Footwear, an accredited pedorthic facility, and Walkright, a shoe store, in Frederick, Md. He is a Fellow of the American Academy of Podiatric Sports Medicine and a member of the American Society of Podiatric Surgeons.
Dr. Valmassy is a Past Professor and Past Chairman of the Department of Podiatric Biomechanics at the California College of Podiatric Medicine. He is a staff podiatrist at the Center for Sports Medicine at St. Francis Memorial Hospital in San Francisco.

Dear readers, another Republican has come out of the closet.
That's right: Rick Perry has decided that he's not afraid any more, and has to let a deep secret be known: he's a privileged, homophobic ass.
Not exactly a revelatory statement. The video really is just a desperate ploy by Perry, previous not-Mitt Romney Republican frontrunner to remain relevant in an election campaign that has long since shot him in the knee and left him for dead by the side of the road. This video is absurd and awful, seemingly just the sort of thing that should be ignored and pushed to the side in a supposedly civilized society like ours. But, as I wrote a few weeks ago, that is not a viable option.
See, the reason why this video has resonated so much is not simply because of its blatant bigotry, but instead because its warped view of reality is one that is at the forefront of rightwing policy. Sikivu Hutchinson, one of my absolute favorite writers and someone EVERYONE needs to be reading, put it perfectly:
In American politics, patriotism, race-baiting and faith-based pandering are the last refuge of a scoundrel. And this political season militant GOP appeals to white Christian evangelicals have veered into neo-Cold War hysteria. One of the most powerful scenes in Orwell's 1984 was when Party member O'Brien succeeds in brainwashing protagonist Winston Smith into believing that 2+2 equals 5. The Religious Right has been practically virtuosic in its 2+2=5 mass doublespeak; convincing mainstream America that Christians are the new minority and that commie pinko "secular progressives" (Bill O'Reilly's preferred "smear") are at the helm of a socialist conspiracy.
That's right, folks. In the United States, the nation with the highest percentage of Christians in the population in the world, the Jesus-lovers are now a minority and the homo atheist socialists are in control. At least, that's what the Republicans would like you to believe. Personally, I wish with all my might it was true, but that's just me.
Christian nationalism is very much a thing, people. The Ricks Perry and Santorum would like nothing more than our country to become a theocracy, with Pat Robertson at its head. They may not have poll numbers of any relevance, but they have still been elected, in some cases repeatedly, and they have many, many allies in Congress and other branches of government.
I don't think I have to tell you what would happen if they actually managed to be elected to higher offices. They hate all non-straight people openly, hate non-whites a smidge less openly, and if Perry's record as Governor of Texas is any indication, have itchy trigger fingers and plenty of weapons for them. Their platforms are the old fascism of the 30s and 40s wearing new faces. We can deride them, and we should do that, but we must not let that derision stop us from taking these people seriously. They have the capacity to make things awful for all of us, not just make our brains drip out our ears with their inanity.

Investigators say methamphetamine use by a Milwaukie woman played a "significant role" in the motive of a stabbing in Clackamas County on Friday morning.
Tara Axmaker, 25, is not only accused of stabbing 33-year-old Matthew Savage, of Beavercreek, but deputies said she stole a sheriff's patrol car and led deputies on a chase.
It happened around 1 a.m. Friday in the 16800 block of South Howards Mill Road.
Savage called 911 to say that he had been hurt, dispatchers said, and deputies responded.
Several minutes later, another deputy arrived on scene and noticed a patrol car driving away at a high rate of speed with no lights on, deputies said. While listening to his police radio, the deputy heard a woman go on an expletive-filled rant, investigators said. That confirmed to deputies that the patrol car had been stolen.
The deputy started to chase the woman. About five miles later, Axmaker lost control of the patrol car and crashed near Highway 213 and Molalla Avenue near Molalla, investigators said.
A tow truck driver on scene told FOX 12 that the patrol car's back bumper fell off. There was also some damage underneath the car after it jumped a curb and landed in a ditch, he said.
Axmaker was not hurt. She was taken into custody and now faces charges of attempted murder, aggravated theft, attempted assault of a public safety officer, unauthorized use of a vehicle, eluding a police officer and reckless driving. She also had a warrant out for her arrest on a parole violation.
Savage was rushed to a local hospital by helicopter, and he's listed in fair condition.
Deputies said Axmaker is no stranger to law enforcement. The local jail provided FOX 12 with 11 mugshots of Axmaker over the course of her criminal history. She has been arrested on charges of theft, resisting arrest, driving under the influence and providing false information to police.
In a 2010 incident that was covered by FOX 12, Axmaker was accused of stabbing a 47-year-old man at a Molalla home.

I have always looked forward to those award levels like Diamond and Diamond+. Let me tell you - there is NOTHING to compare with the treatment and service when you go with a suite! As they told us, we pay the most and they honor that level to the hilt.
From the embarkment, we were met at the separate SUITE entrance by an RCC agent that personally guided us through security and seated us at our suite waiting area. We boarded first and initially toured the ENORMOUS Oasis.
You can read about the Oasis on other posts, so my experience will be mainly the suite goodies we found while on board.
Our cabin was indeed grand. First time we had more drawers than stuff to put in them. Balcony very nice with lounge chairs.
The concierge room overlooks the back of the ship and we made a lot of use out of it. We had a leisurely breakfast every morning. Not any crowd and very nice!
There is also a private sunning area and bar (17th floor) that is only for suite members. The lounge chairs are upgraded with a full length pad to rest on. How decadent!
We had a private Captain's meeting with more food and drinks. We also had reserved seating for all shows. Nice not to have to muscle in for seats. We did find that if we arrived early enough, there were better seats than the reserved ones. The ice skating seats however were ringside! First row! again - Nice!
It is more expensive to book a suite, but I certainly will try to save enough and look for any last minute bargains to return to this level!

Currently, Nexus automatically shifts a package from the "active" state straight to the "expired" state if its expiry date passes. There's no facility to permit a package to have a grace period, however, during which it remains active past its expiry date just in case a client missed the due date for some reason.
Many hosting companies offer a courtesy grace period, out of respect for whatever you host with them and their relationship with the client, in case you miss the invoice deadline. What would be very convenient is if a per-package grace period could be configured in Nexus that keeps a package active for a number of days and sends a reminder email once the package has entered the grace period. The package would then transition to the "expired" state at the conclusion of the grace period.
Permit a grace period after a package expires

Olympian Labs BioCell Collagen II - 100 Capsules
Olympian Labs BioCell Collagen II is a natural dietary supplement that provides nutritional support for connective tissue health, specifically articular joints, and the skin. BioCell Collagen II is derived from the richest natural source of these essential nutritional "building blocks." Not all Collagen Type II is created equal. Some formulations contain molecules that are too large to be absorbed. Only hydrolyzed BioCell Collagen II can deliver this necessary protein to the body's resource center and is guaranteed to contain standardized levels of Hydrolyzed Collagen Type II proteins, chondroitin sulfate, important for maintaining healthy joint cartilage, and Hyaluronic Acid.
What happens when we age? Read any magazine or watch any news or medical show and they'll say the usual...wrinkles, joint problems, arthritis, etc. Are these really synonymous with aging or can we avoid them? These signs of aging are mainly a result of a slowing down of collagen production. Collagen is one of the most abundant proteins in the body. It is necessary for the successful maintenance of healthy cartilage, tendons, ligament and skin. As we age, we lose this necessary protein. This loss can lead to joint degeneration, synovial (joint) fluid loss and dramatic skin changes. To maintain the vitality of these tissues the body needs the correct nutritional "raw materials" to keep it going. BioCell Collagen II, taken on an empty stomach, can provide these necessary materials.
Hyaluronic Acid (HA), together with collagen, is essential for the health of soft connective tissue. Hyaluronic Acid is present in the synovial fluid that surrounds joints, cartilage and the eye and skin tissue. Hyaluronic Acid helps the skin retain moisture and functions as a lubricant between the connective tissue of the skin. Take, for example, a drying fruit. A plum starts out plump and moist. When you remove the water and you get a prune. The same thing happens with loss of Hyaluronic Acid. It leads to skin, eye and joint problems associated mostly with advanced age.
Daily use of BioCell Collagen II, with its combination of Hydrolyzed Collagen Type II proteins, chondroitin sulfate and Hyaluronic Acid, may help with many connective tissue and common joint disorders, such as osteoarthritis, degenerative joint disease, joint defects, vascular disease and cartilage injuries. BioCell Collagen II also supports skin health, skin appearance and elasticity by helping the skin retain moisture. BioCell Collagen II is completely water soluble and specially processed to ensure maximum absorption by the body.

Survey results have been tabulated, and the Pause staff is currently working on securing a spring concert (Lutefest) headliner.
Students were asked how much of their attendance depended upon a specific artist. A majority, 57 percent, said that the performer would be Fairly important (I'd like it to be a popular band or musician, but it probably won't prevent me from attending if it isn't). Most students who took the survey expressed an interest in one nationally known artist as opposed to two lesser-known artists.
Jacob Dalager 09 took the survey and did not opt for the number one nationally rated artist choice on the survey. I would want two artists from different genres, then I would be more likely to attend, he said. Dalager didnt attend last year because he wasnt interested in the headlining artist. The music is the main reason I would go, he said. Its the artist that brings me in.
Mane Stage Concert Coordinator, Shayna Melgaard 07 administered the survey. She stated that several of the questions pertaining to Mane Stage events would be valuable for next year, but the Lutefest questions were most important for this year.
The high number of responses were exciting and useful to Melgaard and to the rest of the concert committee as well. About a third of the school responded to the survey.
Melgaard and the committee hope that the responses will help guide them in a direction that will please more students. The concert committee and I had some ideas about which direction to go this spring to shy away from the type of music we've been heavy for the past couple of years. Other than this, they did not know what kind of results the survey would generate.
Questions were carefully worded, since, just because an artist might fall into a particular category, that would not mean that they were in the committees price range, or even touring in the spring. Price is a large factor, since Lutefest, an outdoor concert, is free.
The announcement of the spring concert artist will happen sometime after spring break. Melgaard and the concert committee are in the process of signing contracts with talent. Melgaard did reveal that Mat Kearney and Gym Class Heroes, both suggested artists on the first question of the survey, became unavailable shortly after the survey was administered.
Melgaard realizes that while getting input from a large amount of students should help cut down on the number of complaints about the suggested band, complaints will surface anyway. It was our goal with the survey to allow more transparency in the event-planning process by letting people in on what musicians and bands are on our radar, so we can book an event that most people will enjoy, Melgaard said.

On Thursday, David Seltz, executive director of the state's Health Policy Commission (HPC), met with local hospital representatives to the Mercy Medical Center's improvements geared towards reducing healthcare costs and improving patients care.
"It is a huge challenge changing the healthcare systems to be one that is more efficient. We understand that in state government, and we're not going to have all the answers so we're interested in partnering with healthcare providers across the commonwealth, so that's why I'm here in Springfield," said Seltz.
In 2012, Mercy received around $45 million in state and federal funds to spend over the next three years to help the hospital operate more efficiently and effectively.
So far, these changes include a redesigned emergency room, more in-patient rooms, and a new patient-care hub.
"We're going to be more efficient as far how patients flow through the system ... all the way from the emergency room to the inpatient side to discharge. And we're also going to be increasing the communication we have with patients so that they are much more aware of what's going to happen to them during their stay," said Daniel Moen, President and CEO of Sisters of Providence Health System.
However, Mercy reps told CBS 3 that what happens after a patient leaves Mercy is equally as important towards helping the hospital keep its healthcare costs down. This includes keeping patients from being re-admitted to hospital.
"We've done a lot of innovative things to try to make sure that when patients are discharged, that they're ready for that discharge, and we can actually help them in the process of obtaining care once they've left our institution. linking them up with their primary care physicians, after a discharge, is a very important part of this process," said Moen.
On April 22, Mercy Medical Center will officially launch its new Care Connect Program. The program is a continuation of the hospital's commitment towards efficiency and giving its patients high-quality healthcare.

Clearly getting an engagement ring and choosing the right one is of the utmost importance - more than a third of women surveyed (38 per cent) said that an engagement ring matters because it is a symbol of how much their partner loves them.
...Nearly a quarter of all respondents (24 per cent) said they didn't like any of their friends' engagement rings; one in fifteen ladies (7 per cent) admitted they do like their friends' engagement rings, but would never tell them.
Some women had modelled the design of their own engagement rings on friends' rings - whilst others had made sure their engagement rings were "bigger and better" than their friends'.
