This title critically reviews old and new literature, help to create greater awareness of the disease in the US and helps in the evaluation of certain epidemiological and public health issues.
During the first half of the 20th century, Chagas disease was assumed to be absent from the U.S. and considered an exotic disease, until the first two indigenous cases were discovered, almost simultaneously, in Texas, 1955. Since that time four indigenous cases have been documented in several places in the country. Although the disease is still considered uncommon in the US, this disease is not longer an exclusive Latin American illness.
Physicians in the US are often unaware of the characteristics of the diseases, and are likely overlooking locally acquired cases. The influx of an estimated 300,000 Latin American immigrants with the Chagas parasite means that there is an urgent need for physicians and public health officials to become aware.

From The Standard Times a report followed by editorial comment on the recent destruction of a church in Sierra Leone by a Muslim group.
Editor's Comment
The story above was published on the 16th June 2009 in the Standard Times edition. The story was about a criminal activity so to say knowingly and jointly carried out by a group of individuals purporting to be Muslims in the Mambolo Chiefdom, Kambia District on a Church, not too long ago which was constructed by the Lord's Mission to bring salvation to residents of that area. The publication did not go down well with two sheiks, namely Alie Kallay and Sheik Fomba. Unfortunately, overcome by sentiments and emotions they ignored the substance of the publication and demonstrated their bias against the author of the publication for calling the group of individuals who set fire on a church building "MUSLIM REBELS"
For the purpose of fair comment and justification, this writer who was attacked by Sheik Alie Kallay and his cohort Sheik Fomba would limit comments regarding the issue on the substance of the publication and why a description of such nature was ascribed to this bunch of lawless men and women who took the laws into their hand to perpetuate criminality, and now walking the streets of Kambia and Mambolo free, while the mission and those who were receiving salvation from church left in frustration.
The Editor is bravely continuing to promote the desirability of peaceful religious co-existence and emphasising the peaceful potential of Islam.
This is what the preacher men and teachers of the Muslim religion, who are parading the streets of Freetown under the nomenclature of Sheiks are supposed to do in the interest of peace and stability of the country and protecting the image of the Muslim religion, but woefully, both Sheiks Alie Kallay and Fomba failed to do that when they took up the issue in a radio programme aired on Tuesday Night at the Voice of Islam FM102.0. It was like justifying the criminal action of this group with the perception that there is nowhere in the world that a church building was built on a piece of land where a mosque had stood before.
This is not only absurd, but a clear manifestation of religious hypocrisy exhibited by these two men using a religious radio station to criticize those who are completely against the inhuman, unreligious and criminal action of these people. Was there a church in Rokbop Village called Lord's Mission Church established on behalf of the residents of the Mambolo Chiefdom? Was this Church burnt down by a group of individuals acting under the guise of Muslims? Did the Police in Mambolo Chiefdom, Kambia District arrest a number of people including a Sheik by the name of Lamin Sesay who led the group to commit the offence for which he was not punished, released and allowed to go free?
These and more are the issues and not whether Philip Neville is a Church goer or not. These are facts that cannot be ignored by any sane minds apart from Sheiks Alie Kallay and Fomba, who are toying with the truth. There was a Church in the village of Rokbop, built by the Lord's Mission and this church was burnt by a group of Muslim rebels and the water facility valued at $20,000 provided by this mission was equally destroyed and equipment stolen by the group. This group that carried out the act came from the outskirt of the village and not the beneficiaries of the church and the facility provided.
Sheik Alie Kallay and his team are blind to this undisputed fact and reality of the ugly situation that took place in the district and the only way they thought it fit to console themselves was to attack the author of the publication for exposing the bunch of rebels that caused the mayhem on the lives of the residents of the village. Perhaps, what Sheik Kallay and other insane minds failed to comprehend is the fact that the facilities enjoyed by the residents of the village and those who used to benefit from them have been deprived, not only of salvation; but the gift of nature, which is water. Is that the behaviour of a true Muslim?
The issue of peace and stability which were merely happed upon by Sheik Kallay and Fomba during the programme was not done sincerely, if it were they should have first condemn the action of the group who rebelled against the Christians and appealed to the Christian victims to be patient and forgive these people, the same way Jesus Christ appealed on behalf of the Pharisees to God when he was on the cross, saying "Lord forgive them for they know what they are doing". Here we see how the affected Christians comported themselves for peace to prevail, if not they too could have reacted the same way, which would not augur well for national and religious developments in the country.
Attacking Philip Neville for reporting the action of a few disgruntled men who have demonstrated no respect for the religious beliefs of another group is obscure and unbelievable, especially from a set of religious teachers whom much is expected from. Let Sheik Alie and group accept the bitter truth that the action of this group is criminal and indecent and be ready to register their apology to the church. Whether a mosque was there before the establishment of the church or that the village of Rokbop is not a defence, because Sierra Leone is not a predominately Muslim state, but a country where religious tolerance is the norm and practice.
The committee setup by government to investigate the ugly incident MUST endeavour to come out with its findings and recommendations so that groups acting in this manner under the guise of any religion will stop. President Ernest Bai Koroma, himself being a devout Christian must called the leaders of the two dominant religious groups together and educate them about the role of religion in the development of the state and good governance. Sierra Leone is not a breeding ground for religious intolerance, religious terrorists and religious rebels as this is not the first time that a so-called Muslim group has levied an attack on a church. Sometime back, similar group acting on religious sentiment attacked a church at Portee and inflicted pain on the people. It should be noted that the days of barbarism are far gone, and we are now living in a global village where interdependence, inter-marriages and religious tolerance are the ingredients of peaceful co-existence of mankind and not religious supremacy or domination.
African Christians are not shy of standing up for their faith.

Thank you for bringing this to our attention, Esme. I have just read - and prayed - through it.
I enjoy the plain speaking and practical thinking of those African Christians. It is notable that rather than just building a church the Christians also built a well with (so far as I can deduced) what one might call a mini-waterworks for the whole community...water of life.
It is also notable that the Muslims made their usual nonsensical claim to 'prior ownership' (of the church site, in this case)...and smashed and burned and pillaged, destroying a valuable new community resource.
For those who may not know, I will throw in some background information on Sierra Leone, from my Christian sourcebook Operation World [OW] and from the CIA factbook.
OW said (2001) that Sierra Leone was 70 % Muslim (rate of increase 4.5 %), 18 % traditional religion, and 12 % Christian (rate of increase 2.9 %); official language English with Krio (Creole) as lingua franca. In 2001 the country was viewed as having ceased to function as a viable state...is anyone surprised, given that it was 70 % Muslim?
OW also notes that "during the 20th century Islam grew from 10 % to maybe 80 % of the population" (it would be interesting to find out figures for each decade and correlate them with the level of 'instability').
CIA for 2009 is cautiously hopeful (which, in a way, chimes with the fact that the posted article shows that village Christians were organised and confident enough to gather resources and ask for help from the Church Universal, to build a church and water well):
'democracy is slowly being reestablished after the civil war from 1991 to 2002 that resulted in tens of thousands of deaths and the displacement of more than 2 million people (about one third of the population).
'The military, which took over full responsibility for security following the departure of UN peacekeepers at the end of 2005, is increasingly developing as a guarantor of the country's stability [hmmm -I'd like to know whether Muslims control the military..if so I would not be very hopeful of longterm peace...dda]
"The armed forces remained on the sideline during the 2007 presidential election...The new government's priorities include furthering development [good luck with that, when Muslim rent-a-mobs destroy village waterworks built by Christians - dda] and stamping out endemic corruption [good luck with that, in a country 70-80 % Islamised...dda]."
The CIA factbook religion breakdown differs somewhat from the OW figures - stating Muslim 60 %, Christian 10 %, animist/ traditional beliefs 30 % (this variation between OW and the CIA guesstimates may be accounted for by syncretism between traditional beliefs and both Christianity and Islam).

text: Hi everyone, I have been working on getting some SELinux support into Puppet, based on some initial work by Frank Sweetser. I know the Fedora Infrastructure team uses Puppet and I heard a rumor that there was interest here in better SELinux support. ReductiveLabs just cut a 0.24.6rc1 containing this support. If you would like to test it I would certainly appreciate any feedback and bugreports. I believe they intend to release 0.24.6 as soon as possible, so the sooner the better. Now a brief introduction, since I know that is the thing to do on this mailing list: I ran my first Linux-in-production system in 1996, started the switch to Red Hat Linux 4.2 as soon as it was released, and have been using RHL, RHEL, CentOS, and Fedora since on both servers and on my desktop (as my exclusive OS since around 1999). These days I am a senior systems architect for a web-based firm that did around 1.2 billion page views in 2007 supported by around 300 Linux servers running our various dev, test, and prod environments. Some of the key technologies in use here are Apache, Perl/mod_perl, MySQL, MySQL cluster, RH Cluster Suite/GFS, Nagios, Cobbler/Kickstart for deployment, cfengine (and soon to be Puppet) for configuration management. My current main task is reimplementing our cfengine configurations in Puppet so I've been deep in Puppet recently. I have this idea that I would like to help on the Fedora Infrastructure team, to help contribute something back to Fedora, but between job and family feel that I probably don't have the time needed to dedicate to it, so I had just been lurking here until now. Cheers, Sean

And this in turn increased my attractiveness, I started to get comments about how "pretty" and "sexy" I was looking... and this was without changing any of my style, clothes or make-up.

Thank you all so much for your lovely comments! They are making my day, every time I read them. I really am overwhelmed with the flattery. And thank you to the Parent Hacks blog for including the kitchen in last week's link list and to the Daddy Types blog for writing it up.
I am as we speak drawing up plans for the construction of this kitchen and will post when they will be available from my Etsy. Should be sometime in the next few days. It was really a thrill to give Lara such a addition to her playspace - I think it would be a fantastic thing to build for a holiday present.

Hell is beautiful.
A profound meditation on what the human species is doing to the planet we live on, "Manufactured Landscapes " is also the art-curio event of the year: A film that begs to be hung on the wall, studied, absorbed, and learned from. Director Jennifer Baichwal takes the industrial landscape photography of Edward Burtynsky and unfreezes it in time, releasing images of unparalleled loveliness and damage. The result is a hymn to disorder and, implicitly, a warning.
There's little narration, no former vice president explaining what it all means. Baichwal and Burtynsky prefer to show rather than tell. The director followed the photographer on a trip to China, and much of the resulting footage testifies to the scabbed ecological underbelly of the Chinese economic miracle and, by extension, ours.
It's a macro subject, demanding a macro approach. The opening image of "Manufactured Landscapes" is a mighty eight-minute- long tracking shot along a vast factory floor in Xiamen City , and as one aisle of machinery relentlessly follows the last, you either flee the theater or find your sense of time and proportion irrevocably altered. The film demands we pull back -- way back -- from our daily business and consider the long tail of consumption, creation, and decay.
Burtynsky's photographs uncover the beauty in what he calls "industrial incursions": strip-mining, waste runoff, slag , and scree. He finds the ruined poetry in extraction industries and also at the other end of the consumer life span. A series of brightly colored crushed cubes in a junkyard have an eloquence belied by their meaning: They're America's technological cast offs, sent to China to be picked down to wire and motherboard. (Fifty percent of our e-waste goes this route.)
Whole towns are devoted to this recycling ; kids strip discarded computers as heavy metals drip into the water table. A side trip to Chittagong shipbreaking beach in Bangladesh shows families wading through toxic sludge to pull apart tankers plate by plate. (The average life expectancy there is 30.) Mountains of coal pile up in Tianjin Harbor , while, inland, 1.1 million people in 13 towns are relocated to make way for the Three Gorges Dam, a hydroelectric project so massive that a wobble in the earth's rotation was detected when the gates were first opened.
The relocations, we hear, were accompanied by deception and not a few broken bones. Are the people happy with their new homes? "Do not ask me this question," replies a Three Gorges spokesman. "I am not in charge of this."
"Manufactured Landscapes" zooms in close, as well, recording the repetitive gestures of factory work. Mechanical or human, it's much the same: A line of steam irons acquires the grace of a slowed-down Busby Berkeley routine, while workers snap together electrical breakers in seconds, striving for 400 a day. The components are bound for the United States on container ships that look like outsized conduits of globalization.
The film's pace is inexorable, the rhythms aggravating, and strangely lulling. Baichwal makes use of an industrial-music score by Roland Schlimme that's like organized static; it's ugly, but anything else would be lying.
Taken as a whole, "Manufactured Landscapes" is a mesmerizing work of visual oncology, a witness to a cancer that's visible only at a distance but entwined with the DNA of everything we buy and everywhere we shop. We are not in charge of this, you may want to reply. If not, who is?

I have read a good deal at one time or another about our colonies. You may suppose that I could not be indifferent to the institutions and productions of the colony at Cranbrook. It has been my frequent day-dream and I long to see it (Greg, 13).The artists' connection with the town dated from 1854, when F. D. Hardy began living at Waterloo Place. Webster visited the Hardy brothers regularly and in 1856 introduced them to Horsley, with whom he had struck up a close friendship when they were both students at the Royal Academy Schools. By 1857 Webster had settled in Cranbrook and Horsley took lodgings there until he found a suitable house in 1861. The diaries of Horsley's wife, Rosamund, provide much of the information on the early formation of the colony, which soon became a lively social network of the artists and their families.

Goodell On LA Vs London: NFL Wants Both
Source: Bill Williamson | ESPN.com
LONDON -- Roger Goodell wants the NFL to return to Los Angeles and he wants to bring the league to Europe on a permanent basis.
In no particular order.
Speaking at a forum for European NFL fans Saturday on the eve of the 49ers-Jaguars game at Wembley Stadium, Goodell was asked by a fan about going back to L.A. and where it ranks on the league's wish list compared to putting a team in London.
"It doesn't matter," Goodell said.
"I'd love to be back in Los Angeles," Goodell said. "But it has to be done the right way, we have to do it successfully. ...
"I want both (London and L.A.), but it doesn't matter which one is first."

being ironic is not just being sarcastic, being sarcastic is just making a cutting remark, being ironic is saying the oposite of what is meant, say you had an argumant with a girl and said something bad and she ran out of the room, being sarcastic i would say something like
"that wasnt a good thing to say was it"
but if i was being ironic i would say something like
"well you've certainly made her happy"

SANFORD, Maine (NEWS CENTER) -- The first business has moved in to an old mill in Sanford that was in such bad disrepair, the city took it by eminent domain 6 years ago.
Saundarya Hair Salon and Day Spa is the first tenant at 16 Washington Street, a building that was once part of the Goodall Mill complex. After the city cleaned up the property, developer Northland Enterprises bought it in 2011, giving it a new roof, new floors, new windows, and a new mission.
There's 22,000 square feet of commercial space downstairs and 36 apartments upstairs.
Josh Benthien, co-owner of Northland Enterprises said, "A number of people have said this to us. 'We saw the mills close. We never thought anything would come of them. And this is a gem. And this mill has come back to life.' And that to us feels really good. "

Flat Irons
Eventually I want to invest in a higher end flat iron since I typically straighten my hair a ton and I have no idea what to even think about buying. I've been using a $30 wet to straight iron for like 6 years now :| What do you guys use and/or recommend that's not going to cost me an arm and a leg?
Also do higher end straighteners make your hair look sleeker/shinier/better? Are expensive flat irons really worth the investment?
I feel like a dork asking
What I use. o: It works nice, and straightens pretty fast. I use a heat protection product on my hair before I use it, I don't really use anything that's for straightening, and it turns out nice every time.
Works amazing. Can be used to curl hair. Using heat protection and leave in conditioner products is a must.
Not sure if you are still looking for suggestions but I'll post one anyway. I use Remington S9500 Pearl. It's the best straightener I have ever had in my life. I straighten my hair every day because I don't like my curly, frizzy, half jamaican hair ><. It heats up SO quickly, takes seconds and it also lets you know with a beep sound when it's ready to use. I love the bag that comes with it, I always use it to put my straightener down on when I'm combing and styling in between. It's a bad boy. Cost me 166 USD at the time, but I live in Iceland so it's much more expensive here than in the US. :py61:
Well, thanks everyone for your replies, but I've pretty much decided on a Solia. I'll probably update this thread whenever I decide to actually purchase a new flat iron.
Welp, if anyone was wondering, I went ahead and ordered this. I got it on sale for $64 and it came a few days ago. It's ok, I guess. Trying to curl my hair with a flat iron at first was the most frustrating thing.
I'm not sure what exactly I expected, but it is ok at straightening hair. I feel there's not really a difference between my ~6 year old Wet2Straight (lol) one.
but for curling, it's great. A hell of a lot faster than a curling iron could do, for sure. I'm not sure I'd purchase any more high end hair tools, though.
I hope that doesn't imply you're using it on wet hair.

Skip to comments.Obama Gets America's Motto Wrong (When is enough ENOUGH?)
Posted on 12/08/2010 7:05:30 AM PST by yoe
Now some fresh pickings from the Political Grapevine: Video
Members of a bipartisan group of lawmakers called the Congressional Prayer Caucus want to make sure President Obama knows the country's national motto.
Forty-one Republicans and one of the five Democrats from the caucus sent a letter to the president asking him to correct a mistake he made during a speech last month in Jakarta, Indonesia when he said -- quote -- "In the United States, our motto is E Pluribus Unum -- out of many, one."
The lawmakers point out the official national motto -- approved by Congress in 1956 -- is "In God We Trust." The letter calls it -- quote -- "a disservice to the people you represent."
Caucus leaders also point out President Obama's omission of the word "creator" on more than one occasion when quoting from the Declaration of Independence.
(Excerpt) Read more at foxnews.com ...
Asking for a sarcasm tag for a statement like that on a website like this is a great filterer...if you know what I mean.
Ask him now! BHO, Jr.'s "Black Base" is IMHO, somewhat less enthusiastic now than his white leftie supporters. In fact, his poll numbers among African-Americans have sunk to an alarming 97.5%.
Very acute, Sir. Clearly yours is not as empty of brains as a ladle.
The NappyOne, with some help from G&S
I am not sure what he would say today. I know that Dungy did not want to be a part of the White House Office of Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships in 2009. He also said at the time that he still wanted to be involved in Obama's work. (http://abcnews.go.com/Technology/story?id=7580172&page=2)
Maybe Dungy would not publicly comment.
It *IS* great that we can elect a black president. I'd prefer one with more qualifications than the legal minimum, but some people have lower standards.
"E Pluribus Unum" IS in fact, A motto of the USA, and has been for over 200 years.
The fact of the matter is that Congress has approved MORE than one motto--and E pluribus unum is technically the motto for the SEAL of the USA.
E pluribus unum (pronounced /ˈiː ˈplʊərɨbəs ˈuːnəm/; Latin /ˈeː ˈpluːrɪbʊs ˈuːnũː/), Latin for "Out of many, one", is a motto on the Seal of the United States, along with Annuit cptis and Novus ordo seclorum, and adopted by an Act of Congress in 1782.
Just because Congress said in the 1950s "In God we Trust" too, doesn't make the USA godly either....as the German motto (through WWII, actually) was: "Gott Mitt Uns" (God With Us), and we see how much THAT meant to the Nazis.
I despise Obama too, but lets point out the (many) substantive problems he's causing, and not look for a bogey man behind every bush.
In fact, some day we'll elect a black President who is actually a Natural Born citizen, which our present POTUS is not.
I didn't think I needed them — but I thought about it. Then I thought about it again and decided I really didn't need them at this point.
We can only hope.
I wish I knew what's on that birth certificate that he won't just throw it down and tell everyone to FOAD. The alleged BC I saw on the internet was so bad that *I* could have forged a better one - whoever did that one didn't even know what layers ARE, let alone how to do them.
It's hard to believe he could really not be an NBC, and that Hillary! wouldn't have known/used that. I think it must just be something really embarrassing that it would have made her look petty to disclose, without actually disqualifying him.
Damned islamist.

WorldWide Solar Cell Production Growth Flattens but still Gigantic in 2011
Global PV cell production grew to an impressive 37.2 GW in 2011, according to a market survey by PHOTON International - The Solar Power Magazine, for a 36-percent increase over the 27.4 GW produced in 2010.
But the annual survey also reveals a dramatic reduction in year-on-year growth. Compared to a record 120-percent jump in 2010, the 2011 cell output was the PV industry's lowest growth rate since a 34-percent increase in 2003. The survey also shows a continuation of Asian dominance, with six Chinese manufacturers in the top 10 - with Suntech Power in first place for the second year in a row - and two from Taiwan. For the first time since PHOTON International began surveying solar cell producers, the top 10 did not include any solar cell producers from Europe or Japan.
"The days of solar cell production in western countries are numbered," says Michael Schmela, editor-in-chief of PHOTON International. "Like other commodities, solar cell production will continue its rapid shift to low-labor-cost countries in Asia, especially China." In 2008, only 33 percent of solar cells were made in China, a share that grew to an impressive over 57 percent in 2011.

I find that ridiculously low. Even if everything goes wrong, it is hard for me to believe that another company would not pay $125 million ($4 per share) for SARA's reserves. With oil company stock prices high and China seemingly on the upswing, even small oil companies ought to be able to raise that easily.
So I have kept buying it below $2.25--ever since $4.50!.
One of the things I love about Saratoga is that it is not secondary recovery. You can make money in those stocks, but it always takes two or three times as long as they say because the water won't go where it is supposed to, you need more or different injection wells, etc. They get there in the end, but I love getting some results 30 -45 days after spudding as will happen with Rocky.
I am hanging in. I think if they foul everything up, Saratoga will be sold, and it will be well above $4, so I am willing to suffer.
I should have asked is SARA really only worth $77 million market cap, as the debt is $150 million. So another company would have to pay $125 million plus assume an additional $150 million of debt, which they would be able to refinance at more favorable terms than 12%, in order to get to a $4 buyout. I still think the share price is way out of line with the reserves..
A little bit too much hat no cattle...... holding for a gusher or till the sale sign goes up and ends this battle Ouch

I thought it was 97%...ESRX also states 0 to 2% rx growth next year.esrx will do fine. lets see what cvs says or suggests rx volume will move up.This might be hard to stomach if you are a WAG shareholder.
I don't see ESRX comments as newsworthy to sophisticated shareholders of either company. As you well know, WAG takes a big hit on the front end and ESRX deteriorates gradually for 2 years. The net effect is good for CVS and bad for WAG and ESRX. If ESRX/MHS merger goes through, ESRX may be facing several weak quarters. It's funny also that WAG, while attempting to move Part D business away from ESRX, is strongly promoting it's partnership with Coventry MPD which is a Medco product. Certainly a potential backfire there. The fact that they continue to push Coventry is part of the reason I think WAG plans to ink a contract. Either that or they think the merger won't happen. Time will tell.

First impression on unpacking the Q702 test unit was the solid feel and clean, minimalist styling.
For work use, Microsoft Word and Excel programs pre-installed on the device are adequate for preparing short documents.
The Fujitsu LifeBook UH574 allowed for great mobility without being obnoxiously heavy or clunky. Its twelve hours of battery life did not disappoint.
The screen was particularly good. It is bright and visible from most angles, however heat is an issue, particularly around the Windows button on the front, and on the back where the battery housing is located.
My first impression after unboxing the Q702 is that it is a nice looking unit. Styling is somewhat minimalist but very effective. The tablet part, once detached, has a nice weight, and no buttons or switches are located in awkward or intrusive positions.

Celtics "Locked In" On Aaron Gordon With Sixth Pick
Sports Illustrated reports that the Boston Celtics are "locked in" on Arizona forward Aaron Gordon with the sixth pick in the 2014 NBA Draft.
Several league sources believe that Celtics GM Danny Ainge is locked in on Gordon. While Gordon's shooting is a concern, he is a strong rebounder and shot blocker who can defend either forward spot and has been compared to Shawn Marion. A trade is possible here, too. Ainge is always on the lookout for a make a blockbuster deal, and with Boston's assets he is more than equipped to do so.

For the most part these are not expensive vases or ones you love and they just sit around, take up space and collect dust! Here's a project to help you breath new life into those simple clear vases. It'll look like a piece of art when you are done that you may just want to put it on display instead of the flowers.
- Krylon Stained Glass Color - Red (#9020)
- Krylon General Purpose Metallic - Silver (#1406)
- Glass vase
- Spool of curling ribbon
- Painters masking tape
- Scrap paper
- Spray the entire inside of the vase with the Krylon Silver Metallic paint #1406. Allow time for it to dry.
- Tape one end of the curling ribbon to the inside lip of the vase opening. Wind the ribbon tightly around the vase creating a spiral or criss cross design. Tape at the base of the vase. (You can create any design you like with ribbon or lace or any other design element.)
- Cover opening of the vase with scrap paper so the red paint does not get on the inside.
- Spray exterior part of the vase with Red Stained Glass paint.
- After the paint dries, remove the tape and unwind the ribbon and discard.
- If you are having trouble securing the ribbon onto the glass you can also use Krylon Easy Tack Repositionable Adhesive. Just spray a bit of that onto the ribbon and it will hold securely to the glass. After you are done spraying the Red Stained Glass, and it has completely dried, you can remove the ribbon and then use a wet sponge to wipe off any remaining adhesive from the vase.
- You can create an entire collection of these modern vases by varying the size and shape of the vases or the colors of paint used.

Thank you for such a simple idea. I have lots of glass jars of different design and size but all clear glass. I have just finished painting my dining table and chairs and this idea will be great as I can paint a number of the jars group them and use as a centre piece for the table. Thank you for such a simple yet stunning idea. Beverley www.beverleylovestosew.blogspot.com

Police are looking for a 31 year old man, they consider armed and dangerous, in a shooting in Thornhill on Thursday night. Officers with York Regional Police say Sirvon Edwards should not be approached if seen. Instead, they ask you to simply call 9-1-1. A 22 year old man was shot outside of a pub around 11 o'clock on Thursday evening, following an argument between a group of people. The victim is expected to live. Cops are searching for Sirvon Edwards, who they say is known to police. He is described as male, black, last seen wearing a white, hooded sweatshirt that was covered by a black jacket with a large round-shaped logo on the back. He has several tattoos, including "187" on his left forearm, the words "Loved by few" on his right wrist and "Hated by many" on his left wrist, as well as a cross with the words "Remember me" tattooed on the underside of his right forearm.Newstalk1010 has learned that Edwards was arrested in a fatal 2003 shooting at Canada's Wonderland. He later accepted a plea bargain of weapons charges, and spent about a year in jail. Police say they have arrested two women, a 23 year old and a 54 year old and have charged them with accessory after the fact to attempted murder. Officers say it's believed they know Edwards and allegedly helped him following the shooting.

Tasteless vs. class
Chicago mayor isn't thrilled by Trump sign
Donald Trump is going to Chicago to see his name in lights. "I want to see it," the billionaire developer told the Associated Press on Friday of his visit, planned in about two weeks, to view the 20-foot-tall letters that spell T-R-U-M-P on his skyscraper along the Chicago River. "People are loving it and I am going to look at it." Trump has been in a spat with Chicago Mayor Rahm Emanuel over the installation of the giant sign, with the mayor calling it "architecturally tasteless" and Trump saying the "world-class sign" is a valuable addition to the Chicago skyline. Ever since the letters started going up this month, drawing criticism from Emanuel and a newspaper architecture critic, Trump and his sign have been the topic of national news reports and were even the subject of a report on The Daily Show.

Henson puppets 'Stuffed & Unstrung' at Pabst Theater April 13
Ever wonder what Muppets would say if someone else was pulling the strings? About the closest thing to it is "Henson Alternative: Stuffed & Unstrung," a live, adults-only improv comedy show featuring Jim Henson Company puppeteers. It'll be at the Pabst Theater at 8 p.m. April 13.
This definitely ain't "Sesame Street," and these aren't the Muppets. It's six Henson puppeteers - out in the open - with 80 puppets, working up bits and sketches onstage. Their efforts are also shown on a big screen behind them. This New York Post report gives you a taste of the experience. »Read Full Article
Tame Impala anything but at Turner Hall show
Kevin Parker's perfectionist tendencies went into overdrive on last year's "Lonerism," psychedelic band Tame Impala's sophomore full-length album. Besides insisting on playing nearly all the instruments in the studio, Parker mixed the album two times, flying from his native Australia to New York on both occasions, to get the details just to his liking.
Tame Impala didn't have the luxury of do-overs and fine tuning in its sold-out, 85-minute Turner Hall Ballroom set Sunday. And if Parker attempted to bring that obsessive craftsmanship to a live setting, he would run the risk of sabotaging the set's potential for spontaneity. »Read Full Article(1)
'Rep Lab' cooks up mixed batch of one-acts
In her curtain speech before Saturday night's sold-out performance of "Rep Lab," Sandy Ernst - who oversees the Milwaukee Repertory Theater's justly acclaimed intern program - made clear that the Rep simply couldn't stage its shows without each year's crop of two dozen interns.
But even as we routinely note these interns' presence - in smaller roles, as extras and in program credits, where they are listed as understudies and assistants - we rarely get to really see what they can do. Now in its third year, "Rep Lab" - short plays showcasing intern actors, directors, choreographers and designers - lets us appreciate how good they can be. »Read Full Article

text: Review Content Great design Aromatherapy option creates just the right amount of scent for a small space. Love it Owned for months use every night this is the best humidifier with the aroma therapy options LIKE & LOVE THIS!! I got this one with "Smart Mist Ultrasonic Humidifier" at same time. This one was for living room and Smart Mist Ultrasonic Humidifier was for my bedroom. However, this was so much easy to control, light weight, quiet, and pretty, I ending up keep this in my bedroom. This is the best humidifier I ever had and I highly recommend to anyone who is looking for humidifier. Love it It quietly blends into the room. The mist is cool, so no danger of scalding. Easy maintenance. I just love it! Powerful and sleek Being able to adjust the flow of mist is helpful. Would like a bigger reservoirs but that would be a trade off for the compact size. The diffuser doesnt work as well as a true air diffuser. The aroma fades quickly-better than nothing offered. Loved it but the on-off switch is hard to get too. I use this kind of product on a daily use. I want something that is easy to use.This product had tools and pads that need to be used. Wanted something quick and simple. Im going to buy this in a second color When its not on and working to help my Boston breathe easier in the dry winter air, this humidifier looks like a nice accessory on an end table in my living room. Its pretty shape and color make it look like a vase. I plan to purchase a second one in a different color for the bedroom. the pharmacy had this on, and WOW Walked into the pharmacy after having lab work done. And because of my headache, I was about to make an expensive sinus spray purchase. After waiting 10 min.i was awake without a headache, instantly felt relief. Great product! I bought this to replace a bulkier humidifier. I love the fact that I can use oils to freshen the air in cold months. I run it for the maximum time of 20 hours each day, I do refill with fresh water everyday. Ive had this over 2 weeks and it is working great. Functional and Beautiful We purchased this humidifier for our bedroom because we have radiant heat which makes for incredibly dry sleeping conditions in Ohio winters. We started humidifying last year with a cheaper Walmart machine ($40) that did the trick, but failed on us after one year. This year, having made some other improvements to our bedroom, we decided to do some research and get a good one. This one caught our eye because of its clean white aesthetic and ease of maintenance. Also, love the idea of the essential oil diffuser all in one. I still have yet to get my hands on some essential oils (slightly hard to find in my area) but cant wait for that. After two weeks of use, I will say this product is incredibly high quality, has improved comfort in the room, and looks fantastic. It takes up a very small footprint, but still does the trick. We do not have a very large bedroom, but this humidifier is perfect for our space. Looks great, absolutely SILENT, and modern controls that are thoughtfully designed. Initially Fantastic Humidifier Helps me breathe through my nose and not my mouth. Forms meets function I have a 20 lb cat and electric heat...need I say more? Allergens and dust only make the dry air of cool weather worse. My old monster of a humidifier just died and I was looking for a new one. I am so glad that I found this one because it blends with my decor and is super easy to use. A bit smaller than my last one, with less tank use time, but that is ok with me. Easier to clean than my old one. I lost my sense of smell a few years ago, so cant comment on the aromatherapy feature. Humidifier is a "functional" piece of art. It is quiet. A useful product that does what it promises and is quiet and attractive. Impressive This is perfect for my small apartment. Interesting design (wish it came in black). I was worried about the small size of the tank, but at medium setting it doesnt need refilled for almost 16 hours of continuous use + very quiet. too much hassle Con: I found this product too complicated to set up and use. Maybe Im just a techno-dummy, but I had no such problems with the previous humidifiers Ive owned. Although the idea of not having any filters to deal with sounds good, the result is that the unit is supposed to be washed and refilled every day, which is just as annoying and time-consuming as dealing with filters, which only have to be changed every month or so. Pro: its small and quite attractive. Disappointed Thought that the vase was glass or porcelain but it is only plastic so I was disappointed Love it! Works fantastic! Very attractive design. I use this in my bedroom almost every night! Stylish Effectiveness My young daughter uses this in her bedroom at night. It has really helped her not to have a dry and stuffy nose in the morning. The filter can be a little difficult to clean but probably because we have hard water. My daughter also loves that she can use aromatherapy oils in it too. It is a great product (but did not come with an oil sample as described in the product description). It is also nice that it is not too big and doesnt look like a typical humidifier-it looks like art. Superb! We live in Arizona, so its really dry, definitely humidifier country! We have two of these, one for each end of the house. The size and design just blends in with the decor easily. They give off a great bit of mist into the air, and its a cool mist, so safe around little ones too. Theyre also silent, unlike other humidifiers Ive had. Care and maintenance are a breeze. Id recommend them to anyone looking. Smells great Im in the desert and it keep wood in good shape Functional & Great Design The greatest unit I ever got. I feel like I needed a Humidifier but got a design sculpture as well. Very simple to handle and is whisper quiet. Very pretty doesnt look like a humidifi Mine. Didnt come with lavender scent like it said. Not quiet. Nice design Humidifier Ive tried many humidifiers to find the perfect one and this is it! The entire family has allergies and this humidifier is fantastic! Previous humidifiers grew mold quickly and were difficult to use. This one, however, is perfect - lightweight, easy to clean and uses tap water - no distilled water needed. The diffuser is so light you dont really notice a smell, unlike some that are way too strong! It is attractive and we have them in every bedroom and in the living room - a definite buy and one that you will be very pleased with! Dissapointed You cant put it near curtains, on carpet, near electronic gadgets. After reading all the restrictions as to where you can use it, I figured I would have to put it on a table in the middle of the room and run the electric cord across to an outlet. The controls are on the bottom on the water tank and you cant see them without turning the tank over to see them, and how do you keep from spilling the water out to turn the controls on. Satisfied Havent used the aromatherapy part yet, but I will. Its a great idea, convenient. All in all , it seems like a good product. What IsThat ? Wonderful design. Looks like art. Stays clean, inside out. Works great, adding moisture to air and looks great. Disappointed Returned it. Had difficulty figuring out how to fill the darn thing...diagram was useless plus it was a lot bigger than I thought it would be....much heavier than I thought it would be and forgive me, just unattractive in my opinion. I had trouble using the discount coupon and ending up paying more for it than I thought I would be paying. attractive and effective This aroma-humidifier is very attractive - a designer piece. It comes with felt pads to soak with your own essential oils, releasing a lovely scent with the warmed air. It runs quietly and efficiently. I have the medium size, which is rather small -- good for a bedroom but I have to fill it almost every day. I highly recommend this aroma-humidifier. Simple, easy, and effective I use this product in my bedroom. While I have found it to be very effective , I would not recommend it for a living room or open concept living area. It is ideal for bedroom, den, or even office at work. Nice design but expensive Works well but controls are difficult to access. Oils are placed on a disk in the bottom. I think you get better diffusion when placed in the water.

Arizona Diamondbacks Continue Season-Opening Run, Down San Diego Padres in 11 Innings
The Arizona Diamondbacks have now won all four of the team's first games, with the latest victory coming after 11 innings last night against the San Diego Padres in southern California.
The game winning play -- a Chris Young two-run home run in the top of the 11th off former D'Backs pitcher Micah Owings to win 4-2.
Using a good portion of last year's Oakland A's pitching staff -- starter Trevor Cahill, and relievers Brad Ziegler and Craig Breslow -- the D'Backs used six pitchers to hold the Padres to just two runs on six hits.
The D'Backs were actually held scoreless for nine innings, scoring only in the first and 11th innings.

Second baseman Willie Bloomquist -- a former Arizona State University slugger -- led off the game with a single to left, and Miguel Montero reached on a bat-shattering infield single, as Padres pitcher Edinson Volquez tried to avoid the flying wood particles.
First baseman Paul Goldschmidt came to the plate with two outs, and hit what looked like an absolute bomb to left field.
The ball bounced a few feet short of the wall, but that was good enough for a double to score Bloomquist and Montero, and put Goldschmidt safely on second.
The Padres were held scoreless by Cahill's pitching until the third inning, but it wasn't pretty.
In his first two innings, Cahill threw 48 pitches -- only 18 of them for strikes.
He got out of the messy situations, though, as the only run off Cahill was when Chase Headley scored on a fielder's choice in the third inning.
Hits were rare for both teams until the bottom of the seventh inning, when Ziegler came in to relieve Cahill.
Ziegler was not in mid-season form, leaving some pretty meatballs over the plate for the Padres.
That led to a triple by Orlando Hudson -- of former D'Backs fame -- and he was brought home by a single from the next batter, Jason Bartlett, who was called out trying to stretch the play into a double.
Ziegler then walked pinch-hitter Jeremy Hermida, struck out Cameron Maybin for his second out, and was pulled for a new reliever, Bryan Shaw.
Shaw struck out Will Venable in four pitches, then retired the side in the next inning.
With the game tied at two, the Padres had two men on with two outs in the bottom of the ninth, but David Hernandez ripped three straight strikes into Montero's mitt to strike out Maybin and send the game to extra innings.
No hits came in the 10th inning for either team.
In the top of the 11th, though, a pitch skimmed the jersey of Gerardo Parra, putting him on first base.
Chris Young took the very next pitch to the seats in left field.
D'Backs closer J.J. Putz came in to close out the game, and it looked like the game was going to last until 2 a.m., as Yonder Alonso led off the inning with a single.
Putz then got Nick Hundley to fly out to right. Then he downed Hudson on three straight strikes. Bartlett then swung at his first pitch, hitting it to shortstop for an easy out at second to end the game.
Breslow got the win, Putz got the save, and the undefeated Diamondbacks play the Padres again tonight for the second game of the three-game series in San Diego. Joe Saunders is making his first start of the season tonight for the D'Backs.
