The Best of Natural Laundry
So many people suffer from dermatitis, eczema or skin sensitivity. These people must avoid harsh additives like perfumes, artificial fragrances and fabric softeners. For this reason, many choose natural alternatives for their laundry needs. I personally find some of these alternatives do not live up to expectation in the cleaning and freshening departments. But there is good news! I took to the internet to research the very best laundry options for those who want to avoid harsh ingredients yet demand quality. Here's what I found – and tested – to be the best:
Best natural laundry detergent –
DIY detergent recipe – which I personally use!
*I personally use Dr Bronners lavender bar soap option in this recipe, and add in a little oxyboost for whitening
Best natural fabric softener DIY
Wool Dryer Balls – a necessity!! I add a couple drops of young living lavender or purification to them before using – amazing!

My sponsor, Greentea Design, did a fantastic job imho remodeling blogger friend Kim's kitchen.
Kim is one half co-owner of wildly popular blog Desire to Inspire and she moved into her own house in Canada and did a really good job with her then-kitchen. It went from this:
To this with the help of boyfriend Jeff and some good blogland suggestions:
It brightens the place up so much! Made it 10 times better!
(which is bloody awesome as it is since it was looking so cool and glowy)
And in Sept 08, Kim revealed a biggie: she scored a deal with greentea design & kitchens; in exchange for some extensive coverage on their work in her kitchen, she'd get a package of some awesome japanese-inspired kitchen cabinets.
This was the discussed plan:
And after four months, here is her fantastic new kitchen!

Anglo-Saxons of England. It was given to one who worked as a horse breeder.
Coltment Early Origins
Lincolnshire where they held a family seat from very ancient times, some say well before the Norman Conquest and the arrival of Duke William at Hastings in 1066 A.D.
Coltment Spelling Variations
Coltment Spelling Variations
The English language only became standardized in the last few centuries; therefore, spelling variations are common among early Anglo-Saxon names. As the form of the English language changed, even the spelling of literate people's names evolved. Coltment has been recorded under many different variations, including Coltman, Coultman and others.

The Great Migration
The Great Migration
For many English families, the political and religious disarray that shrouded England made the far away New World an attractive prospect. On cramped disease-ridden ships, thousands migrated to those British colonies that would eventually become Canada and the United States. Those hardy settlers that survived the journey often went on to make important contributions to the emerging nations in which they landed. Analysis of immigration records indicates that some of the first North American immigrants bore the name Coltment or a variant listed above: John Coltman of Wethersfield who came from Sutton Coldfield in Warwickshire, he settled in Springfield Mass in 1644; Ann Coltman settled in Virginia in 1623.

Ulster Unionist leader David Trimble was today preparing to fight a motion of no confidence in him in his own constituency as rival factions within the party continued to row over policy.
Just 24 hours after he lost a High Court action over the suspension of three rebel MPs, Mr Trimble was facing the verdict of his 260-strong Upper Bann constituency association.
The Belfast High Court yesterday ruled that attempts by Mr Trimble and the party leadership to suspend MPs Jeffrey Donaldson, the Rev Martin Smyth and David Burnside were unlawful because the Disciplinary Committee set up to deal with them was not properly convened.

Review for Add-on Update Checker by solcroft
Rated 5 out of 5 stars
The 1.13 beta versions have been working well, any plans to graduate them to stable soon?This review is for a previous version of the add-on (1.12.1-signed). This user has 4 previous reviews of this add-on.
I have one more beta to post (additions to the settings page and one variable I didn't initialize properly that could show a warning even though it worked.) I think it will become the final version after translation. I plan on posting it here and on Babelzilla (for translation) in the next few days. I'll probably give the translators a week before I post it here as a stable release (it takes a few weeks after I post it for Mozilla to review it and release it after that, so I'd guess a month before final release.)
To create your own collections, you must have a Mozilla Add-ons account.

Sintered Fiber Metal Composites as a Basis for Attachment of Implants to Bone
A fiber titanium composite has been developed and its potential application as a method of skeletal fixation for internal prosthetic devices has been studied.
Titanium fibers, 0.19 millimeter in diameter, were cut in short lengths, compressed in dies to predetermined densities, and sintered under vacuum.
The composite exhibited adequate strength and its compliance was larger than bone.
Samples were implanted in the trochanteric and in the supracondylar areas of the femora of rabbits and dogs. Peripheral bone formation was evident at ten days, bone ingrowth was demonstrated at two weeks, and penetration deep into the samples was seen three weeks following implantation.
The shear strength of the bond at the implant bone interface in the trochanteric region of dogs was measured hs tensile tests. The strength increased significantly until the second week and remained constant thereafter until twelve weeks following implantation. Average values were in the range of 20 kg/cm2.
These findings are discussed in terms of the configuration of a prosthetic device. A fiber metal composite in the form of a thin sleeve surrounding ansd bonded to a central solid metal core would provide fixation to bone and uniform stress distribution at the implant bone interface.

Poonam Pandey calls herself 'stupid'
Poonam Pandey sent her fans on the virtual world into a tizzy with "Jingle b**bs", her racy twist to Christmas carol "Jingle bells". She says she sometimes find her videos stupid, but is glad her fans love them.
Poonam Pandey. Pic/Santa Banta
The actress, who has oft grabbed headlines for her bold nature, enjoys a wide fan following of 726,000 on Twitter, and the video has registered over one million views on YouTube.
"All my videos are getting good hits. It feels good that you upload a 47-second video which is so stupid and I'll myself term it stupid, but people love it. Though I'm stupid, but people still love me," she said.
Poonam, who made her debut down south with the action romance "Malini & Co" last year, didn't expect the response to "Jingle b**bs".
She said: "I never expected that I'll receive such a great response. I thought it was a stupid video, it was silly. It was only done in a funny manner because I know what I'm doing. I didn't expect it to go viral."
Meanwhile, Poonam has also signed two "huge" projects, but she can't reveal much about them at the moment. She also has the film "Helen" in her kitty.

Angels in America! This damn show completely fucked my brain apart. (Yes, THAT'S what did it.) Imagine it: my very first night in Seattle ever, reading the script cover-to-cover while listening to Diamanda Galás's Plague Mass, quivering and whimpering and clutching my wineglass like the last lifeboat out of hell. That is some serious psychological self-fuckery right there, gurl. It is of course an absurdly dramatic and very weird story that follows several seriously messed-up characters in New York City in the early days of AIDS, and it's got it all: buttsex, terror, pathos, lesions, vomit, evil Republicans, Mormons, a little more terror and vomit and lesions, serendipitous dream communication (this was long before iPhones, you understand, and that's how people used to talk in ye olden times—in dreams), lawyers, hotties, and history, all bound up together in some sort of crazy cosmic conspiracy involving angels and ghosts. Um, hullo? No self-respecting 'mo should ever miss this show. Intiman Theatre, 7:30 pm, $45–$56, all ages, through Sept 21.
Well, now here's a rather peculiar and somewhat newish thing: Area 2181, a dance party that is also "a social experiment for gay men." ("Social experiment"? That's refreshing: We're usually just left with the social diseases—see above.) Yes, these kids are on a mission: to "bring all walks of gayness together to celebrate our similarities" and get drunk and dance and stuff, because apparently none of them were asked to prom and/or got that pony for their sweet 16, and now we all have to hear about it. Kidding! Kidding. This time, the dance party is tackling a theme based upon "the Plastics" from the gay film classic Mean Girls—so you are supposed to dress the theme and be bitchy. To fight bitchiness. Or something. Fun! The Eagle, 9 pm–3 am, $5, 21+.
Well, now here's a rather wonderful and quite oldish thing: Flammable! You do understand, of course, that it is the longest-running house-music night on the West Coast (and has been for, like, 200 years) and therefore has to be doing something right, which is EVERYTHING! Hot, sweaty, sexy dancing freaks of all stripes like to call this every-Sunday event "church," and they all come out to worship at the feet of the beats. And everyone should go to church. This is fucking America. Re-bar, 10 pm, $7, 21+.

The WireX converter, from eDevice, enables legacy equipment with embedded analog modems to immediately be switched from connecting through the traditional phone line to connecting through a cellular GSM / GPRS wireless network. WireX is the first Analog-To-Wireless converter designed for self installation by the end-user. It does not require any changes on the existing legacy device, the user only needs to disconnect the phone cable from the wall and plug it into the WireX dial-up connector. The data previously transferred over the phone link is then automatically transmitted using phone line emulation over a GPRS or GSM data cellular network. WireX is ideal for remote patient monitors, telecardiology monitors, alarm and security systems, TV set-top-boxes, point-of-sale equipment, energy metering systems, security, and access control devices.

New ACKU Station at American University of Afghanistan
On February 28, an ACKU station was officially opened at American University of Afghanistan (AUAF). In attendance were Mr. Sharif Fayez, founder of AUAF, Nancy Hatch Dupree, Executive Coordinator of ACKU, Abdul Waheed Wafa, Executive Director of ACKU, and Dr. Rebecca Miller, Library Director at AUAF, and a significant number of students from AUAF.
Dr. Rebecca Miller warmly welcomed ACKU members and the participants. Nancy talked about the history of ACKU, how the center was established in Peshawar and about its move to Kabul University. In her opening speech, Nancy mentioned that ACKU's mission is to share information for the sake of nation-building. She added that "books look lovely in the shelves, but they are useless if we do not take them off the shelves and use them." In her speech she also emphasized the importance of research.
Abdul Waheed Wafa briefly introduced and presented the ACKU online database to the students. He said that ACKU has not stopped doing what Nancy did in Peshawar; ACKU now has more than one hundred thousand items in its collection related to Afghanistan. Mr. Wafa requested that students become active users of ACKU resources.

Separate names with a comma.
Discussion in 'Lawn Mowing' started by bluesclues, Mar 3, 2005.
what would you charge to rake(cleanup) a yard? Charge by the job or the hour?
What do you mean, rake? I don't know about you, but my rake is a Stihl BR420 Magnum backpack blower. For me, a rake is always the last resort.
Charge by the hour. Add in an extra hour, because it usually takes a little longer than you expect. Add in any dump fees, as well as the time it takes to do the dumping.
Ain't no doubt about that!
I would just cahrge by the job, not the hour. Are you seriously going to rake the whole lawn by hand?
No, definitely going to use a blower.
If you don't factor in the time it will take you, how do you "charge by the job". I think you are confused. Here's how you do it: figure out how many hours it will take you to complete the job, multiply that number by a set hourly rate( $45-$60), add in materials and fees, and there is your price for the job.

An Influx Of Birds
I think they are waxwings.
Robins had settled in the other tree. There must have been some divisiveness. For they stayed separated.
At one point I saw one of these birds fly right into the window. I hope it wasn't hurt. But it flew off, so I suppose it was okay.
I was just so surprised by the sheer number of these birds, perched on all the branches of the tree you see directly from the patio doors.
Look at that wing span! It looks like an accordion.
They would all fly away, and then moments later, all fly back.
Today they are gone. It is quiet and the branches are still.
It is no longer raining or snowing, which went on for four straight days. The snow has melted for the most part.
I miss the birds that came to visit me. I wonder if they've gone on wherever they were headed.
What birds are you seeing in your yard right now?

Wonderful photos Brenda! We received a couple inches of snow yesterday along with some sleet so the bird feeders were busy. Goldfinches, juncoes, cardinals and mourning doves were all visiting.ReplyDelete
Have a wonderful day!
I saw a bunch of those birds at work yesterday and could not figure out what breed they were. They are eating all the berries left on our trees. I see a lot of goldfinches. I love the little black hat Juncos. And a few Red Tail Hawks.ReplyDelete
Those are beautiful cedar waxwings, Brenda. They're gorgeous birds, so you capturing them must have felt like a treat, I'm sure. Birds flock together for many reasons. Most of the time the weather causes birds to flock like that. Oftentimes, the birds are foraging, but some birds form mating flocks, mostly game birds, though. I love birds, and my favorite is the raven.ReplyDelete
Absolutely beautiful pictures. I opened my front door this morning at 7:30 and I couldn't believe the birds singing. It sounded like springtime.I've never seen this particular bird before.ReplyDelete
We have various ones all the time. Seems like the weather is warm enough in the desert for them to hang out. Love your pics of your visitors. Gorgeous.ReplyDelete

OHGOSH! Cedar Waxwings! I used to see them a lot as a kid. Now days I only see them once a year if I'm lucky. I must live in their migration path. They were in my backyard this year and it felt magical. I'd never had them in my own yard before.ReplyDelete
Several years ago a large flock of Cedar Waxwings landed in our neighbors cherry tree. The ate most of cherries before moving on. They are beautiful birds.ReplyDelete

Brenda, those birds are just gorgeous! I don't believe I've ever had the pleasure of having them in my yard - I think my homes have all been too wooded - I don't even get the same varieties of birds as my sweetie or my parents as their houses are in open areas. Your photos are incredible! I bet there were in the midst of migration and taking a rest. Do you feed the birds?ReplyDelete
Those are beautiful birds! We have mostly cardinals, and woodpeckers now. We put out black-oiled sunflower seed, safflower seed and suet in feeders. It's rewarding to help Mother Nature...and fun to watch! ;)ReplyDelete
Beautiful! Cedar waxwings are nomadic in the wintertime and travel in large flocks. I grew up in Hampton, VA and remember when they ate fermented pyracantha berries from our bush; there were drunk birds in the yard all afternoon! I hope 'your' birds are better behaved!ReplyDelete
What beautiful pictures you took of those birds! Cold weather must be coming. Several years in October while driving from Dallas to Oklahoma I saw birds flying south for miles and and miles. Enjoy your visitors.ReplyDelete
Beautiful Cedar Waxwings, Brenda! We get them once a year in our cedar trees. There are so many in the the tree and they envelop the branches and consume all of the tiny bluish berries. I love their annual visit.ReplyDelete
We had a flock of waxwings arrive just like that years ago. They landed on an old cedar tree (long gone now), ate their fill, and then were gone. They were so pretty!ReplyDelete
Beautiful pictures. I love mourning doves. About week ago we had swarms of bird. They would fill the sky. I am still not sure what they were. They had some kind of marking I hadn't seen. They have to so mixed up because of the weather. My spring flowers are coming up. No snow here yet. Wonder if those flowers will get ruined in the winter.ReplyDelete
We have had ducks swimming on the pond and a visit from a crane.
Happy New Year.
Lovely pictures, thanks! We have little woodpeckers, cardinals, house finches, titmouse, bluejays, doves, and juncos. Mostly we have seed eaters. I feed the blue jays peanuts. They can put three unshelled nuts in their beaks to carry away. Also, we have robins eating Hawthorne fruit.ReplyDelete
I don't believe I have ever seen a Cedar Waxwing in my yard Brenda...what beautiful birds they are...I am seeing mostly the birds that stay all Winter...Cardinals..Black-Capped Chickadees..Nuthatch..Blue Jays...Tufted Titmouse..Sparrow..and who ever else would like to show up for a visit and a meal...We also have some Red Tailed Hawks that come for a visit at times..ReplyDelete
Beautiful birds! We are getting painted buntings...they are a real treat.ReplyDelete
Beautiful! When I was growing up, my mother had two pictures of cedar eaxwings on the dining room wall. I've never seen one in real life but I always supposed that was because they didn't live in southern Manitoba where I grew up.ReplyDelete
A question for you- What type of tree are the birds landing on? I don't recognize the leaves on it. (Hmm, probably because they're probably trees that don't grow this far north.)
I've always been fascinated by the different types of vegetation I've seen when travelling across Canada and through parts if the USA. You have NO idea how excited I became when I saw my first palm tree growing outside 'in the ground', not in a pot found in someone's home!! Nature astounds me.
In the decade that we lived at the "farm," I only saw a few songbirds--too many predators, I guess. But the ranchburger seems to be a habitat for all kinds of wildlife. I set up 3 feeders, and so far I've seen Titmice, robins, cardinals, black-capped chicadees, mourning doves, a bluejay, mockingbird, and a woodpecker. The squirrels have taken over the feeders in the last week, though. They are cute but voracious. :-)ReplyDelete
I live in Wyoming . They show up every year in June, have a family, and are gone by the end of July.ReplyDelete
They are Waxwings. They come to my yard every year and devour the holly berries on a tree and then they are gone as quickly as they come. Always one hits my large glass window. Sometimes just stunned, other times...It is a sight to behold a HUGE tree covered with hundreds.ReplyDelete
A lot of robins have been around here for a few days. Usually we have a flock of robins come through here, stay for one day and are gone by the next. This year they are staying here longer than normal. The other day I had robins wading in puddles on one side of the yard and snowbirds in the spruce tree on the other side of the yard, and a mischievous mockingbird in the middle of the yard.ReplyDelete
I think that the robins are staying here because their normal wintering areas may be flooded and under water. I am in Missouri, near St. Louis.
I haven't been outside since all the snow so not sure what birds are around.ReplyDelete
Those are some great photos and that wing span is awesome...
We have only had waxwings a few times, even though I know they are around here. We have a lot of cardinals right now...there are often 10 or more in the cherry tree outside my window...ReplyDelete
So cute...we have a few cardinals here and there. That's it!ReplyDelete

Beautiful photos! A very Happy New Year to you and the pupsters. Much good health in the New Year!!!ReplyDelete
I enjoy watching the birds. We are seeing, cedar waxwings, bluejays, cardinals, a whole family of woodpeckers, and various other birds. This time of year, I often see, chickadees, tufted titmouse, but the other day while it was still snowing, I saw a little bluebird. I'm sure there is some superstition about seeing a bluebird in the dead of winter but I don't believe in superstitions so I just felt blessed to see the beautiful little speck of blue on the white snow!ReplyDelete
Ah yes, cedar waxwings! They come to our neighborhood every year in droves as they migrate through. Neighbors across the street have a huge holly bush the waxwings love. They fly from nearby trees to the holly, then back to the trees. Unfortunately they roosted in a tree beside our house and their dark blue droppings were all over our porch steps and sidewalk. My husband and his mom were even hit as they walked to the car! But, as you mentioned, they don't stick around for long. Your photos of them are wonderful. Happy New Year!ReplyDelete
Oh, aren't they lovely. The colours! I have yet to see them at my feeders. I see mostly, chickadees, blue-jays, cardinal, mourning dove, juncos, sparrows and downy woodpeckers. DebReplyDelete

At first, I didn't believe it, that you could actually wash your hair in a few minutes flat, especially for someone like me who has quite long tresses. Thus, I took my skeptical self in the shower and tried out Pony Dry. Pony Dry is an innovative solution which focuses on only washing your roots which (for me) cuts a huge chunk of my washing routine in half because my ends are quite long (and which tend not to develop grease as fast as my roots anyways!) Pony Dry is a hair tie and a hair wrap in one – it's designed to keep your ends dry and let your roots get a really good scrub down. Pony Dry is super easy to use, all you do is gather your hair in a ponytail and flip it upside down, put your ponytail into the Pony Dry and secure at top. Once your entire ponytail is tucked into the Pony Dry, simply wrap your hair into a bun and secure. When washing your roots is complete, dry the top of your head until damp, remove Pony Dry and voila; the hair at the bottom should still be dry. I loved using this product before a big day at the office, it takes my hair routine from complex to simple after one use. I would definitely recommend this product for all the busy gals on the go like me, you can't ignore the signs of needing to wash your hair, but now you can simply reverse the methods. Make it work for you, girl boss.What methods do you use for your haircare routine?

Very useful tips. That would save our time when we don't have enough time. Thanks for sharing
Great idea in theory, but its not going to work at all for anyone with a low hairline or shorter hair.

Mezzanine made in my house to save space for the two kids to play below.
Made with reclaimed wood from an abandoned construction site.
All made with joints, totally dis-mountable. Only eight screws where used to fix the guards.
Ment to be painted white when we have the time...
And there are still more shelves do be done. Toys seem to multiply like mushrooms.
Thank You!

The supernatural drama of Yeh Kahan Aa Gaye Hum is rapidly reaching to its climax. Since a long time now, the focus of the show has shifted to the revenge drama between the bull and tiger.
Kabir, who is actually a bull named Agni has entered in Rahul and Manvi's life to seek his revenge against Rahul's tiger avtaar. Everyone starts having complete trust on Kabir and consider him to be a friend. However, Manvi has slowly started to have a doubt on Kabir seeing that all clues are pointing against him. Manvi does some research on the internet and she finds out that bulls are scared of snakes and also get hyper on seeing red color.
Manvi decides to come up with a plan to re-confirm whether Kabir is indeed the bull or not. On the other and, Kabir too start feeling tensed thinking that Manvi has started to doubt him. Kabir is in love with Manvi but is scared that she knows his secret of being a bull. Manvi decides to execute her plan to know Kabir's truth and coaxes him to come with her to the temple. Kabir reluctantly agrees to accompany her. At the temple, a man comes to Kabir with a snake.
Kabir immediately starts behaving weirdly seeing the snake and Manvi's doubt is confirmed that Kabir is Agni the bull. Manvi decides to expose Kabir's truth in front of everyone and organizes a surprise party. Manvi plans with Sonali to make sure everyone wears red colored clothes in the party to invoke Kabir's bull avtaar. Kabir knows that Manvi is upto something and he decides to stay away from the house until he knows her intentions. However, Rahul forces Kabir to come for the party and Kabir reluctantly agrees. It will soon be seen that there will be heavy duty drama amid the party sequence. Kabir will turn into a bull and try to attack Manvi. However, Rahul will be a pillar of strength for Manvi and will protect her from Agni's attack.

US Secretary of State Hillary Clinton will later this week travel to Germany to attend international security talks and exchange documents putting into force a US-Russian nuclear arms treaty.
Clinton spokesman Philip Crowley said she will take part in the Munich Security Conference from Friday through Saturday as well as hold bilateral meetings and speak about the "transatlantic security relationship."
German organizers said among those attending will be Afghan President Hamid Karzai, German Chancellor Angela Merkel and British Prime Minister David Cameron.
On Saturday, Crowley said Clinton and Russian Foreign Minister Sergei Lavrov will exchange instruments of ratification for the New Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START), which will then enter into force.
A responsible partnership between the world's two largest nuclear powers to limit our nuclear arsenals while maintaining strategic stability is imperative to promoting global security," Crowley said in a statement.
"With New START, the United States and Russia have reached another milestone in our bilateral relationship and continue the momentum Presidents (Barack) Obama and (Dmitry) Medvedev created with the 'reset' nearly two years ago," he said.
Medvedev signed the new START agreement's ratification on January 28 after the milestone pact's passage the same week by both houses of Russia's parliament and the US Senate last month.
Crowley did not refer to a meeting of the international Quartet of Middle East mediators, who are due to hold a high-level meeting in Munich on Saturday to try to revive Israeli-Palestinian negotiations.
That meeting was announced by the European Union on January 13.

Mumbai, June 24 (ANI): The residents of Bandra's bandstand area in Mumbai have taken an extra step towards beefing up security by installing CCTV cameras, to prevent an attack like the 26/11 attacks in the city.
The Advance Locality Management (ALM), a group of 38 societies has taken a step towards making the area secure for the residents.
The residents say that the police alone cannot make the society a secure place and it is with the cooperation of the residents that crimes can be prevented.
"There are a lot of people coming in such as tourists and celebrities and high profile people live in this area. That is why we have started installing eight cameras within every 100 meters. And it will secure the whole Bandstand area. It starts with Bollywood actor Salman Khan's home, Galaxy Apartments and ends with Shah Rukh Khan's bungalow, Mannatm," said Archana Sharma, member of Bandra Resident Association.
"Basically these are all night vision cameras that we are installing. These are high-resolution cameras. The monitoring of this will be done through the CMS (Central Monitoring system) software and it is going to be linked with the police stations, the local DCP and through our office. Now through this we will be linking the ALM and the important members," said Amit Kapoor, Project officer of Security Blendz.
The installation of CCTV cameras would provide a sense of security to the residents of Bandstand, an area that faces the sea.
The cameras will also help the people to warn the visitors sitting near the coast during high tide. (ANI)

|Original upload: 2015-06-27 |
Studio : Island Caprice Studios
Location : Thailand
Produced : 2001
Length : 01:29:18
Performer: Adul, Chaiya, Chukiat, Den, Kamnan and Phantom
Super studpuppies Den and Phatom are playing a very 'adult' game of hide-and-seek when Den is found up a tree with a superb erection. Not to be outdone, Phatom displays his burgeoning slab and the two decide to descend before they fall out of the branches. Once on the ground, they paw and grapple in a delicious display of discovery. Eventually, Den pounds his pal's solid butt astride a tree trunk, and then offers his own bubbled buns in return. This is one of the most delightful and engaging scenes we've ever filmed!
Then Kamnan gets a backswing full in the nuts as Chaiya winds up during their miniature golf match! Well, he gets Chaiya back and the two decide to nurse their bruised balls back at the house. And nurse they do as copious sucking moves to well-hung Kamnan shoving his joy toy all the way in.
Then super-cuties Adul and Chukiat meet on the docks then sensuously reveal all in an intoxicating affair. These guys are smooth and sleek and are wonderful to watch as they discover each other's hot spots in a multi-suck-fuck you'll relish and revisit. Hearthrobs & Hotsauce abound

I am so pleased when I see another eco-themed book on the market, especially in children's literature. Making the environment a regular part of our children's vernacular is an important step in them becoming stewards of the earth.
My latest discovery, Earth Remembers When by Dawn Wynne, is an absolutely stunning picture book with many layers to enjoy.
Layer 1: Reading the rhymed story in which the narrator reminisces about a clean, abundant earth when forests covered the world and foods came from the ground instead of a box. Even though my seven-year-old reads on her own, she wanted me to read this book to her, and we cuddled on the sofa together.
Layer 2: Studying Gloria Piñeiro's beautiful illustrations of oceanscapes, sunlit forests and wildlife families. Her work is vibrant and nostalgic, rich with lush detail.
Layer 3: The pages fold out to reveal a very different scene of what happens when we lose environmental focus. Wynne shares some startling statistics on how careless human action affects our planet, yet she doesn't leave us feeling hopeless. Each fold-out spread ends with a tip on what we can do to help reverse the tide. They are simple steps that kids can do, too.
Because of its multiple layers, Earth Remembers When works wells for readers of many ages. My daughter Sofie read it on her own again, and she loved searching for the hidden Earth within every illustration — another layer of fun!
The eco-friendly theme extends beyond the story, which concludes with positive action. Wynne includes several pages of kid-friendly, vegetarian recipes plus crafts and games you can make with recycled household materials. She also participated in the Eco-Libris program, which means 100 trees were planted for this book.
Earth Remembers When is the recipient of the Readers' Favorite Silver Award and the 2014 Living Now Awards.
Dawn Wynne is a best-selling author, award-winning educator, certified health coach and mother to a six-year-old. She also blogs at The Everyday Environmentalist, educating families to create greener, healthier lifestyles.

fresh is out [ROM] 08/30/10 | Fresh Hero 2.4.0 | Incremental Update For Freshness - xda-developers
Thanks for bringing this to our attention! And with the link! I have been using 2.3.3 and will probably update to this in the next few days.
Yay! I love Fresh ROM's.. no matter what I flash onto my phone Fresh is always my default!!
Thanks for the info!
I love FRESH.
flipz and Fresh got me to root.
Never looked back.
Now with Cyno 6.0 (froyo 2.2) and won't ever go back to Fresh.
I just downloaded and installed today. I think this is one of his best.
The changelog on the thread said that just apps are updated. No need for me
Upon reading the chang log this morning, I noticed that as well. I don't think I will bother with 2.4.0 at this point either. If I was just starting with Fresh Roms, I would probably install the 2.4.0 however.
damn. just switched to zen over the weekend
Just got this. I just rooted and immediately flashed this ROM... I'm still new to this so I'm not quite sure of it's full potential yet. But I definitely have noticed big differences in speed and lag. My Hero is super smooth now, and that alone is worth the 30 minutes of work I had to put in.
fresh 2.4 has been good to me so far. only noticed one little bug but i think it has happened with other roms too, when i am actually in the window of a conversation with someone, i still get the notification when they reply (talking about texts) and it doesn't go away until i specifically address it
@danokan: i have tried that rom and it just seems like it's missing something, but i can't put my finger on it... i know for sure i don't like the keyboard. i actually like the stock one better. and not too fond of adw either. fell in love with it for the first 24 hours or so, but it quickly went away. it's visually more appealing, but i feel not quite as functional as a stock sense ui. my biggest wish would be the options of adw like screen count and such applied to sense ui. i'm the type of person that i don't really need all 7 screens, but my ocd makes it painful to leave one blank.
Flashed 2.4.0 and haven't noticed a Huge difference between the prior Fresh, but I have noticed more internal memory, which is plus! Im at around 85MB internal. One thing that I have noticed is that I do not have notification flashes anymore, any suggestions?
I flashed this recently, along with Extreme blue...
And ended up back to my rooted stock rom. The stock rom was getting so laggy tween dials I was going nuts. I would actually tap a contact, and the lag was so long, I would tap again thinking it didn't register. Then it would dial the contact, put them on hold and dial again! Frustrating to say the least. My experience with the Fresh 2.4 was about like the stock rom, but sadly with even more lag. Not to mention I still have ShapeWriter in my stock apps and don't know how to transfer that to the Fresh platform. The lag with Fresh and Handcent became unbearable.
I use this phone as a business tool, and have almost 3000 names synced to it via USB and HTCSync. Y'all think that many names could be a cause of the lag?
installed yesterday and battery life is AWFUL for me! Little laggy at times as well. Anybody else experiencing this? Any suggestions on how to remedy?
My first ROM and I am liking it. Battery life is about the same as rooted stock rom and I don't have any lag anywhere. Very smooth. The weird thing is I went with this because it was a Sense ROM but I have disabled Sense and am really digging LauncherPro. Go figure. Maybe I am a Vanilla Android guy after all.
Anyway, I really like this ROM and everything works and works well. Glad I went ahead and rooted and ROMed even though its intimidating the first time.
I rooted my phone for this exact reason. I am running cyanogen mod 6 rc 1 blue and have no issues with dialer lag at all. My Hero is a 1000x better because of it.
Currently I'm running the latest NFX-Hero.2.2.1 and I'm not seeing any dialer lag at all. Although I haven't synced all my contacts to the phone. So the jury is out till tomorrow.
I'm running the HeroZenFX 2.1 ROM and its been great, i've always been a big fan of Fresh but one thing Zen has over Fresh so far is the internal memory, Zen has the smoothness and stability of fresh with a great amount of space (130mbs intially), big plus to me!
I flashed this a couple of hours ago and my phone is laggier. I'm coming from 2.1.2 so I don't know if I should have flashed 2.3.3 prior to this. I may clean up and try Cyno 6.0..
No, I doubt you would have to flash 2.3.3 before going to 2.4.0. Give it time for the lag, phone may speed up by tomorrow
If your going to try froyo, there is no sense ui in the CM6
How is this in comparison to Zen-Rom, because that one is very very fast
Also, is it possible to get the stock rosie, but the desire lockscreen?
i have a sprint htc hero cdma. jus got fresh 2.4, this is my first time rooting. i just have a couple questions. Where do i get live wallpapers? when i click live wallpapers it says "no live wallpapers found" when i get a text or have a voice mail the led flashes once, but it used to continue to flash so i knew i had missed something. Can i get this feature back? and lastly, how do i change the image on my lockscreen, when i hit menu it takes me straight to backgrounds when it used to go to "home or lockscreen?". alot of noob questions prob, but i really appreciate any help.

Have you ever wondered what a factory ride is like? How about what a factory bike is like? Is it how it looks in the magazines? Are the factory bikes really that good? I can tell you that those thoughts crossed my mind more than a few times as I was growing up. While I practiced motos one after another in search of my dream, those questions fueled my fire. All I wanted while growing up was a chance to swing a leg over Jeremy's bike. After a lot of hard work and a little luck, my dream has become a reality. So you ask, is it as perfect as I imagined? Let me tell you about my dream come true.
There are many amazing things about being a factory rider. Here are a few of the perks that go along with having your dream come true. "Can you believe they pay you to do this? asked Losch (the best technician in the world), just after he just handed me a bag of 15 pre-oiled filters, spare wheels with brand new tires on them, two cases of oil (just in case) and a fresh bike that feels more like a 450 than a 250 when I twist the throttle. After that he unloaded my bike and put it on the stand, as I sifted through my gear bag full of new gear. Let me tell you; one cool perk is having new gear to wear before it comes out in the stores or even before it hits the magazines. So not only do I no longer wear scratched goggles or holey gear, but my bike also requires little to no maintenance and comes with all the spare parts I could possibly ever need, at no cost to me! I know you what are thinking…. Spoiled.
Probably the best part of this dream is to have a group of hard working professional technicians to keep my bike running. Let me tell you it is way better than working in the freezing cold garage for all those years just trying to keep my bikes running. First there is Kaipo, the suspension technician, whose job it is to make sure that I won't have any excuses after the race about my suspension. He is available to revalve or freshen the suspension within the hour. Of course I cannot forget to mention the chassis guy Shane and last but not least Dan, who is in charge of my motorcycle. Yes… just mine! Another unbelievable perk you cannot believe until you see it for yourself, is the access to a parts building that is equivalent to the value of Fort Knox. In it are all of the "Gucci parts that give my bike that "bling effect. Did I mention the pressure? It is worth it… every bit of pressure is worth this chance.
Racing is what we all love to do and racing is what brings the factories to the starting line. Personally I can't tell you what racing under the Honda semi is like yet, but I can tell you this opportunity has already taken me to many unbelievable places. Fortunately I have been one of the lucky few to experience Castillo Ranch. The place must be what motocross heaven looks like. This year, Honda has tested more there than at its own test track. Testing is the key word here. It is a dream come true to test, test, test and ride, ride, ride and have it be your job. Even when it rains in southern California it is a good thing, because the hills in Beaumont are a wonderland. Another great perk of living here and being a factory rider is to get to go play riding in the hills with a group of top pros who are all pushing each other to get a little more upside down.
So is having a factory ride everything I dreamed about for so long? Yes. It really is a wonder they pay us to have so much fun. So the next time you are at the races and see your favorite rider you can shake your head in disbelief about how lucky they are. My advice to you is to practice like you love it and sooner or later your dream my come true, too. I know it has for me. Maybe I don't get to ride Jeremy's bike, but I get to do the next best thing, pit next to him! See you at A1!

text: It's like heaven! To celebrate 20 years of Black Lodge majesty, there's four new unreleased songs from the Twin Peaks soundtrack. Only available today over at the Twin Peaks Archive. You can only download two at a time before their file share system boots you off, but just wait an hour or so to download the other two songs. Hot damn! The first two songs are great and creepy and sorta make me want to hide out in my bathroom to settle my nerves—in other words, classic. Now I must wait a long hour for the other two.

Red tape-busting site welcomed by FSB
The Federation of Small Businesses (FSB) has welcomed a new government Web site that helps local councils and businesses combat...
This Article Covers
Legislation & regulation
Infographic: Future-proofing UK technology
The current potential of the UK technology industry is restricted by the lack of tech and digital talent available. Read through this challenge for the future of UK business and our economy.
By submitting your personal information, you agree that TechTarget and its partners may contact you regarding relevant content, products and special offers.

The site showcases five pioneering councils, Devon, Barnsley, Kirklees, Sutton and Oxfordshire, that have been granted Beacon status for their work in building successful partnerships with businesses in their area.
The new site will present the Beacon councils as Best Practice models to be followed.
Peter Scargill, FSB national IT chairman, said: "A survey we recently carried out showed that SMEs view red tape as the greatest barrier to growth and survival. The Web site is a step in the right direction and anything that helps businesses deal with the increasing amount of red tape is a very good thing."
The minister for small business, Nigel Griffiths, said: "Small businesses are the life blood of the economy. We need to encourage a light-touch approach to the enforcement of regulation, ensuring businesses are helped and coached into complying.
"A unified and simple approach to this is essential and I point to the work of these five councils and urge other councils across the country to follow suit."

…this sector is of key concern for developing countries and at the very core of sustainable development strategies in those countries.
A focus on the agricultural sector was prioritized, since the UN Forum on Sustainability Standards (UNFSS) can build from a considerable amount of research conducted by collaborating organizations in this area. In addition, this sector is of key concern for developing countries and at the very core of sustainable development strategies in those countries. Like in no other sector, VSS in the agricultural sector have potential to address all three pillars of sustainable development, by
- creating many job- and income-generating opportunities for small-scale farmers (in growing and lucrative markets for sustainably produced food) with fairer prices and better working conditions;
- using less external-input intensive production methods (such as agro-ecological and organic practices) that reflect in a holistic way the multi-functionality of agriculture and guarantee the regenerative capacity of the key production conditions (in particular preserving soil fertility, enhancing closed nutrient cycles and minimizing GHG emissions); and
- using less mono-cropping and more diversified and integrated agricultural production which increases resilience to climate change and supports biodiversity.
Besides, it has to be taken into account that the agricultural sector in developing countries has become highly export dependent which makes compliance with new requirements set by players in sustainability markets non-negotiable for many countries as export opportunities and market prices determine the livelihood of the rural populations, which in many cases represent the majority of the population in developing countries.
Many private sector standard initiatives already exist in this area, for example GLOBALGAP (Good Agricultural Practice), the 4C Association Code of Conduct for the Coffee Community (sustainable coffee), the Union for Ethical BioTrade Verification Framework, the Better Sugar Cane Initiative, Starbucks CAFE Practices Program, the Rainforest Alliance Sustainable Agriculture Network, UTZ Certified, Roundtable on Sustainable Palm Oil, the Marine Stewardship Council Standards, the Ethical Tea Partnership or FairTrade and Organic standards.

Trump is slated to become our new Overlord, and a lot of people are really nervous, with good reason. I hope that people take care not to trample each other as they stampede toward the exits. Immediately after the election, the papers reported that so many people were asking about immigration to Canada that the Canadian immigration web site crashed. On top of that, there is now a movement for California independence. They are proposing to do it entirely legally and peacefully, via a California referendum and amending the U. S. constitution.

The Oracle of Oil — review
The Oracle of Oil: A Maverick Geologist's Quest for a Sustainable Future. By Mason Inman. W. W. Norton & Company, 2016.
M. King Hubbert was a prophetic 20th century American oil geologist best known for his predictions about peak oil — the maximum rate of oil production. But the people who claim to "refute" Hubbert have usually not even understood what he was saying. He expressed his views in various technical papers and writings, in lectures, and in private conversations — in short, in his life. Mason Inman has written the first and so far the only full-length biography of Hubbert. It is absolutely essential to anyone who wants to understand what Hubbert was about, which can only be done by looking at his life and thinking as a whole. Continue reading
Peak oil: it's still a thing
A couple of months ago the Denver Post ran an editorial, "The death knell for 'peak oil.'" The Post editorial stated that at a 2009 conference in Denver, peak oil theorists predicted that spot shortages would "blow up prices, shock economies and destabilize governments"; but now collapsing prices and a world "awash" in oil had refuted these ideas, and "peak oil worries have been laid to rest." (Jan. 21, 2016).
Oh, really? Let's take a look. Continue reading
Degrowth and Veganism
How can we deal with climate change, let alone peak oil, water shortages, deforestation, and everything else — given that truly effective environmental action would probably stop the economy from growing and totally change everyone's lifestyle?
Our whole economy depends on fossil fuels, and our livestock-centered agricultural system is pillaging the earth's biosphere. Veganism is surely part of the needed approach here. Continue reading
This Changes Everything — Review
This Changes Everything: Capitalism vs. The Climate, by Naomi Klein. Simon & Schuster, 2014.
For Naomi Klein, the climate change issue changes everything: the only way to deal with climate change is to change capitalism. We need fundamentally to alter our economic system if we hope to save the planet. Her analysis is spot on and I hope that climate change activists and vegans will study and benefit from this book. The only criticism I would have is not that it is too radical, but that it isn't radical enough. Continue reading
Al Gore is Vegan
Methane is a lot worse than we thought, but there is some good news about the climate as well, already well publicized. Al Gore has gone vegan. In the past many people have complained about Gore's lack of interest in combating a key cause of climate change. Well, now our hopes have been realized: Gore is a vegan. The "revelation" has been confirmed by The Washington Post.
This is a hugely interesting fact about which quite a bit of ink has already been spilled. The most interesting facet of this story is how amazingly little we know about Gore's veganism. Continue reading
EcoMind Thought Trap #3
EcoMind: changing the way we think, to create the world we want. Frances Moore Lappé. New York: Nation Books, 2011.
In EcoMind, Frances Moore Lappé sets out seven "thought traps" which she seeks to defeat and replace with better ways of thinking. Earlier, I dealt with Thought Trap #1.
Lappé is an engaging, chatty writer with some considerable influence. I agree with a lot of what she says in this book. That's why I'm giving her a hard time about the few points on which we do not agree. Thought Trap #3 is a case in point. Continue reading
EcoMind Thought Trap #1
EcoMind: changing the way we think, to create the world we want. Frances Moore Lappé. New York: Nation Books, 2011.
In EcoMind, Frances Moore Lappé (most notably of Diet for a Small Planet fame, written in 1971) sets out seven "thought traps" which she seeks to defeat and replace with better ways of thinking. In this essay I am going to deal just with the first of these thought traps, and probably the most important, concerning the "growth" issue.
She expresses the first thought trap as follows:
"Endless growth is destroying our beautiful planet, so we must shift to no-growth economies." Continue reading
Interview: Why the environmental issue is important for vegans
Last January 21, the KPOV show "All Things Vegan" aired an interview of me in which we discussed a number of issues, the most important of which is why the environmental issue is important for vegans. The following clip gives the segment of the show which interviews me (it's about 17½ minutes long). Click the picture below to listen to the interview. (EDIT: This link was broken, so I have replaced it with the link to the "All Things Vegan" show. The interview with me starts at about 40:25).
Limits to Growth — A Vegetarian Issue
Peak oil — the maximum point of oil production — is of tremendous importance to the future of vegetarianism. A lot of vegetarians, though, have not even heard of peak oil, and it is hard to explain it to them. Why is this, and what can we do about it? Continue reading
Superinsulation: the Process
Heating of buildings is a significant chunk of the nation's energy consumption, and many buildings are quite wasteful. This has huge consequences for climate change and resource depletion, and decisions about buildings have consequences that last decades.
So, in the summer of 2007 we decided to superinsulate our house. In 2009 we took further action to reduce heating consumption, installing a tankless hot water heater and further sealing the house. This post is a visual depiction of what happened. Continue reading

Monday morning
Facebook analytics are by day by day overlapping 7 day chunks. The New Faculty Majority Facebook page shows 2,869 "reached" between 11/18 and 11/24. Although comments and discussion threads are more active, many visitors still choose to remain anonymous. No one really needs an explanation for why, do they?
Ana M. Fores Tamayo of better pay petition renown has joined NewFac page admin as a content editor. Having such an active contributor is a huge boost for the page and even more help to me. I'm sure it comes as a relief to board members tired of my nagging. Is Ana aware that FB is just the gateway: micro and other blogging sure to follow? In the meantime, we're making plans to coordinates posts and issues to address. Input and suggestions, please. We'd sure like to see your posts and shared links too and plan to highlight those more.
This week, the most popular topics have been retirement funding gaps, Jeff Nall's (yes, we added him to our blogroll), WalMart strikers (multiple posts), Ana's petition, first teachers' walkout in 1946, Truthout article on adjunct pay, cutting adjunct courses at CC Allegheny (more than one post), advisory board member Pablo Eisenberg HuffPost article (the week's most viewed) on living wages for all campus workers, plus others. We're right up there with name highered media, Joe Berry's COCAL Updates and other sources for staying on top of NTT faculty relevant news...more balanced and comprehensive too. Subscribe to our feed and see for yourself.
Most posts are well over Facebook's "average" page viewing threshold (17% of subscribers). Not all of the most liked or most commented are the most visited. Liking, like commenting, leaves tracks. The niggling insistence on identifying yourself to comment there leaves more.
That is why, on this blog, anonymous and "nic of your choice" commenting are and will always be allowed; nor is leaving an email address required to comment. No scripts will ever be embedded to track visitor identities. Page view count and where redirected from minus identifying information, suffice and then some. Page view run about 1,500 a week, with most come from direct subscription (rss, email), Google and Facebook. Twitter redirects come via Facebook. S'OK even if druthers would be for more comments.
I should keep up better with Twitter analytics than just knowing that we have 1,500+ followers. Not yet into "influential" rank but closing in. We also do not use any auto "follower building" tools or bots. Everything is done by hand, personally and no #FF, no thanks for RT'ing or for following, no DMs. OK so doing more with Twitter and checking analytics goes on the Celtic cauldron of my bottomless social media to-do list.
YouTube ~ a New Faculty Majority Playlist, already blogged about too. We also started a Pinterest board but seem to be a more text than image bunch. I'm behind on uploads too. Image contributions welcome. Please!
LinkedIn has many adjunct and other higher ed groups. There is even a closed (not open to the public) New Faculty Majority group started by veep Matt Williams that could and should be more active. I joined it and other adjunct groups, get email notices but am otherwise not active there. It would be a good to cultivate the group and have someone tending LinkedIn for us, someone else, that is.
More than a cursory look will have to wait until next month because this month I signed up for both NaNoWriMo and Hybrid Pedgagy's Digital Writing Month. Not social media per se but greatly partaking of it ~ overlapping. Guess what, I exceed the 50,000 words in a month count for that with just what I do already. The extra effort has been in tracking and counting, to you scattered bodies go. I've learned a lot about my blogging and other digital writing patterns this month. Hopefully blogs and other digital writing will benefit. Either that or throw my hands in the, mutter WTF and leave the building.
2 comments:
Sorry I am really behind in my reading and commenting. Just getting to see this now, a week late. First, let me congratulate you on your exceeding word count. Next, thanks for that plug for my petition; we always need more and more signatures and shares. The petition is growing, but as you noted somewhere, there should be a lot more names on there. An interesting thing is that you do not have to identify yourself with a last name, or a real name, as long as it is not complete gibberish. But comments with your name are always welcome, as they add passion to the cause.ReplyDelete
On this blog, I will try to contribute as much I can, as well as to our FB page, but we need many people commenting, and as you say, Vanessa, a very important component here is that this blog can be anonymous, for those of us who are too afraid, intimidated by retaliation --and believe me-- I for one know this reality is too true!
I just finished reading an interesting blog which mentioned people being arrested in part for their Facebook social media content; whether they are guilty or not is not the point, and I do not know what that case may be. The scary thing is that people do take notice of social media, and as precarious as our employment is, we are frightened. So I understand our hesitation.
Here in this blog, as Vanessa points out, you can be as invisible or as present as you want to be, and that is the beauty of this method of communication; so enjoy it to its fullest extent. In the meantime, I leave you with the blog I was telling you about from Addicting Info

Thanks ~ and for the link too. http://www.addictinginfo.org/2012/11/30/beware-of-liking-and-sharing-facebook-content-you-may-face-arrestDelete
Any help building readers is deeply appreciated too. Takes awhile to build, you already knows how that goes with petitions. On the other hand, look how much your own has persisted and grown while others withered.
I've read similar cautions and should probably run regular tech (and warnings) features. EFF or the Electric Frontier Foundation is the best one.
Social media is an effective organizing tool for large and small projects. Seth did not think his motion for adjunct travel funding had much chance at NCTE, but we got behind him on social media. As it turned out, the proposal passed handily.
