The collection is also a personal one. An extended family of palm-sized stick Santas made by her father occupies one shelf. A tole-painted candleholder Santa crafted by her mother rests on a piano.
Visitors in October might think Weeks has put her Christmas decorations up early to get in the holiday spirit. If they return in February, they might think she's been too busy to take them down.
Don't be fooled - Santa is here to stay.
"Most of the collection is up year round," said Weeks.
The true spirit of Santa can stand the test of time, she said, despite the uber-commercialization of marketers who've gang-pressed Santa into unwilling service as a product pitchman.
"There's a commercial on TV of a robot elf saying something about Santa in an electronic voice -- I'm thinking we have gone way over the top. To me, that kind of stuff is not Christmas and it's certainly not Santa.
"I definitely am sticking with the older traditional Santas and the old feeling about Santa. Santa to me means someone who is giving of himself. It somewhat relates with the spiritual sense of Christ giving of himself. Keeping the kindness and that spirit is what it means to me."
As for upside-down Christmas trees, a friend turned her on to them after seeing some at a year-round Christmas shop in Amish country in Berlin, Ohio. "I like it and it stays out of the way and you don't have to take up a lot of room in your house with the tree."
Which, of course, means more room -- on the tree and on the floor -- for the latest Santas that may have wandered into her house in the meantime.
"I have a lot of different trees I can do -- like a Victorian tree. But my Santa collection and some kind of quirky and funky ornaments are on this tree because that kind of goes, I think, with the upside-down Christmas tree."

Tom Selleck stars as American cowboy archetype Matthew Quigley in Simon Wincer's outback western Quigley Down Under. Answering an advertisement placed by Australian cattle baron Elliot Marston (Alan Rickman) to come to the rugged and uncivilized Australian countryside and shoot dingoes, Quigley finds himself halfway around the world, only to find that Marston wants to exploit his talents as a sharpshooter in order to wipe out the Aborigine population. Taken aback by this square-jawed genocide, Quigley...more

Your Baby
Congratulations -- your pregnancy has reached full-term, which basically falls anywhere between weeks 38 and 42; your due date is simply the midpoint of this time period. Soon, you'll be able to hold your baby in your arms, look into her eyes, and welcome her into the world. She's between five and nine pounds now, and all her organ systems are in place. She has shed most of her lanugo and greasy vernix coating, both of which she'll actually ingest, along with some amniotic fluid; her body will turn this strange concoction into a dark, tarry stool called meconium. Her lungs and vocal chords are ready to wail -- a sound you'll hear once she makes her entrance.
Your Body
You may literally breathe easier these days if the baby's head has gradually dropped into position and shifted into the birth canal, giving your organs some room. This phenomenon is called lightening, and it may happen a few weeks before labor begins, right before, or even during labor. You haven't said goodbye to all discomforts, however; now that the baby's shifted downward, you may feel greater pressure on your groin, thighs, and bladder.
Do's and Don'ts
Make a list of all the important phone numbers you'll need once you bring the baby home, so you won't have to scramble to find them later. Place the list right next to your phone, and be sure to include anyone you think would be a great resource for you during those challenging early weeks (e.g., the pediatrician, doula, and lactation consultant). Collect a pile of menus from restaurants that deliver and tuck them under the phone; this way, if you and your partner are too busy with the baby to cook, a nutritious meal is just a call away.
Learn to spot false labor by knowing its signs: Your contractions follow no discernible pattern and don't become longer, stronger, or closer together. (Changing positions, say, getting up if you've been lying down, should make the pain go away.) Also, in a false alarm, you'll feel the contractions in the front of your body; in true labor, they begin in the back and migrate toward the front.

Your best recipes for muffins, quickbreads, or other brunch treats?
I have family coming in from out of town, and I would like to prepare a nice spread of baked goods for them. They all get in around 10 AM, so I am thinking brunchy stuff would be a nice welcome. I already have a good banana bread recipe, but I would also like to prepare a couple of kinds of muffins or something else along those lines...that's where you come in! Please share your best recipes for brunch-y baked goods. Thanks!
I've become a big fan of Morning Glory Muffins. evidently there are a number of recipes out there, but the one in the King Arthur wholegrain cookbook is awful good. They're moist and dense, and they have a little bit of everything (raisins, carrots, coconut, apple, nuts, and a dab of orange juice).
If they were my relatives, and I knew just when they were coming, we'd have pans of biscuits and bowls of gravy. But that wouldn't hold well.
re: revsharkie
I believe that you can find King Arthur's Morning Glory Muffin recipe here:
re: chef chicklet
I could make lots of recommendations since I love to bake for breakfast and brunch, but here are one savory and one sweet, both from Epicurious. I've made each of these many times and they hit the spot for me!
Scallion Goat Cheese Muffins:
http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/recipe_views/views/100599Lovely simple variation on the scone:
Currant Tea Scone:
http://www.epicurious.com/recipes/rec...If you've got Nava Atlas's Vegetariana cookbook, there's a great zucchini bread recipe in it.
re: sonofoodie
Easy Berry Cobbler- (from Semi Homemade Cooking)
Frozen mixed berries - for a crowd I would use about 3-4 bags
1 refrigerator roll of sugar cookies ( I think it's pillsbury)
pour frozen berries into casserole dish
crumble the cookie dough on top- I don't completely cover the top because the dough spreads and will cover most. I like the look of the berries popping through.
cook until cookie dough is golden brown. Cool and serve with either ice cream or sweetened vanilla (or add some chambourd to the cream if making your own) whipped cream. Everyone will rave about this and it takes litterally 5 minutes to assemble. My favorite party dish to date.
I've had a lot of luck with the recipes from the following websites:

re: Nicole
I love this banana walnut chocolate chip bread. I usually make it as muffins instead of as a loaf. Also, I follow others' suggestions and cut down the amount of sugar and chocolate chips. I also use half wheat flour. They are divine!
I also have a great recipe for blueberry muffins from America's Test Kitchen if you are interested.
If you're looking for something "more healthy" - these muffins are perfect. This came from the Washington Post:
Oat Bran Muffin With Walnuts and Blueberries
12 servings
Wrap the finished muffins individually in plastic and seal them in a freezer bag.
1 1/2 cups oat bran
1 1/2 cups flour
2 teaspoons baking soda
2 teaspoons baking powder
1 teaspoon ground cinnamon
1/2 teaspoon salt
1 cup plus 2 tablespoons applesauce
2 eggs, lightly beaten, or 1/2 cup egg substitute
1/2 cup orange juice
2 tablespoons canola oil
1 teaspoon vanilla extract
1 1/4 cups fresh or frozen blueberries
1/2 cup coarsely chopped walnut pieces
1/4 cup rolled oats
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Lightly coat a standard 12-cup muffin tin with nonstick spray oil. (If using paper liners, insert them in the tin and spray lightly with nonstick spray oil.) Set aside.
In a large bowl, mix the oat bran, flour, baking soda, baking powder, cinnamon and salt. In a medium bowl, mix the applesauce, eggs, orange juice, canola oil and vanilla extract. Add the wet ingredients to the dry ingredients and stir to blend well. Fold in the blueberries and walnuts.
Spoon the mixture into the muffin tin. Sprinkle rolled oats over the tops of the muffins. Bake about 18 minutes, or until a toothpick inserted into a muffin comes out clean.
I like this pineapple upside-down muffins - they're fun and the sweet sticky bottom (top?) compensates for the fact that they are "healthy" muffins.
A big fruit salad would be great too.
Don't forget the protein - how about a quiche or frittatta? (both baked brunch items!) -
This Orange Poppy Seed Cake works very well for brunch, although it can also be served as a dessert. It is really easy and I always get requests for the recipe when I serve it:
Orange Poppy Seed Cake
1/2 cup butter
3/4 cup sugar
2 eggs
1/2 cup sour cream
1/3 cup poppy seeds
1/4 cup orange juice
1 tbs grated orange rind (lemon can be substituted)
1 tbs vanilla
1-1/4 cup flour
1/2 tsp baking powder
1/4 tsp baking soda
pinch salt (omit if use salted butter)1. Preheat oven to 350.
2. Cream butter & sugar.
3. Add eggs, beating well after adding each.
4. Add sour cream, poppy seeds, orange juice, orange rind & vanilla, and beat well.
5. In separate bowl, sift flour, baking powder, baking soda, and salt.
6. Add flour mixture to wet mixture and stir until combined well, but don't overstir.
7. Pour batter into 1 qt. bundt or tube pan.
8. Bake for approximately 40 minutes, until toothpick comes out clean.
9. Let stand in pan for 5 minutes, and then remove & cool on rack.
10. Can be served plain, or sift confectioners sugar over top, and sprinkle with poppy seeds. -
Scones are a "different" brunch baked good. I used to make these when I was working as a baker in a coffee shop. They are very good, very EASY, and there are a lot of variations.
Cream Scones
Makes 82 cups flour
1/4 cup sugar
1 TBSP. baking powder
1/2 tsp. salt
2/3 cup dried fruit*
1-1/4 cups heavy (or "whipping") cream---DO NOT SUBSTITUTE!
1 tsp. pure vanilla extract
Coarse sugar, such as Sugar in the RawPreheat oven to 425F. Combine dry ingredients in a bowl, stirring well with a fork. Add dried fruit. Stir together the cream and vanilla extract; stir in to the dry ingredients, using the fork. Still using the fork, mix to a rough mass, then turn out onto a lightly floured board and knead BRIEFLY (about 1 min.) until it all holds together. Pat into a 7" circle. Brush the top with cream (there's probably enough left in the cup you used earlier---just scoop it out with your finger and run them over the top of the scone circle!), then sprinkle with the coase sugar. Cut into 8 wedges. Separate wedges and place on a parchment-coated baking sheet. Bake approx. 15-20 mins. until golden brown. Best eaten while still warm!
*Dried fruit can be currants (for a classic scone), raisins (I like to add about 1 tsp. cinnamon to dry ingredients when I make them with raisins), dried cranberries, dried apricots snipped into 1/4" pieces, etc.
Pecan Praline: substitute brown sugar for the white sugar. Substitute coarsely chopped pecans for the dried fruit.
Chocolate chip: substitute chocolate chips for the dried fruit. THIS WAS OUR MOST POPULAR SCONE!
Coconut: substitute sweetened flaked coconut for the dried fruit
re: Anne
Your recipe looks good -- I was planning to try Ina's scones this morning, but her recipe calls for 3/4 pound of butter! That's daunting.
Then I was curious about butter content in scone recipes hunted around on epicurious. It looks like the butter-free scones are British, and lighter (of course) and then served with lots of butter on top :) The usual ratio is 1/2 butter to flour?
re: foxy fairy
I tried Anne's recipe last year and it was very good. At the time, I was trying to recreate the scones of my favorite bakery, the only clues they gave me were: 1. no butter, only cream, and 2. brown sugar. Believe me, you are not sacrificing any deliciousness by loosing the butter...and they don't need butter on top, either. ( Cream = liquid butter as my baker friend pointed out.)
Said bakery has recently begun making ham and cheese scones. I'm normally a "sweets" girl, but these things have actually won me away from the choc chip scones. Bits of choped ham and cheese are folded in the batter, and then a bit more cheese melted/baked on top. The scone is still slightly sweet: gorgeous with the salty ham and cheese. Thank God I live 30 min. from that bakery.
re: danna
I'd like to try those ham and cheese scones! I'm more of a savory girl, but I usually bake for my sweety, who has quite the sweet tooth! But for me -- savory all the way. I'm wondering what kind of cheese would be best here -- do you know what they use at your favorite bakery?
re: danna
I made Anne's recipe last week with lemon zest and tart cherries. Mmm. These are the best scones I've ever had -- moist, ethereal. I'm so glad I didn't glop up the batter with three sticks of butter the way Ina suggested!
danna -- thank you! I am going to make a batch this morning -- well, half savory (prosciutto/fontina), half sweet (blueberry-lemon cream). That way I can indulge both my savory craving and my sweety's longing for sweets*
re: Anne
Yes! I realized after posting that I forgot to mention those. WOW. They're delicious -- a totally different creature from the sweet scones, of course. We ate them midafternoon, so the savory ones were great in a late luncheon or tea style, or maybe for a late brunch. I think the sweet ones are more appropriate for morning, and the perfect complement to coffee.
Both are just delightful and yours will certainly be my scone recipe from now on, Anne. I'm excited to add in various goodies, although my sweety is so attached to the blueberry lemon creamies that I don't know if I'll be able to sneak anything else into the dough. For sweet scones, they're just perfection, and for a salty craving, the prosciutto/fontina scones are excellent too. Thanks again! ;)
Are you looking only for sweets? I think Galley Girl's pear tart would be good for brunch, pretty and easy to do. If you do a search, you'll find quite a few threads on it, some with pictures. I haven't tried the Sir Gawain's cake (there's a recent thread on it) but it looks similar and is on my list of things to make.
I like these donut muffins from this thread (It makes a lot so it's perfect if you're having a big group):
My favorite muffins are from the Best Recipe for blueberry muffins.

Well, today was awesome!
, 23rd February 2013 at 08:35 PM (730 Views)
You know, there's a positive side to that near-eye injury of mine. It gave me an excuse to go home from college and be with my family. Man did I miss them. Today we went out and I got two new pairs of sneakers(which I needed), more socks, and some new pairs of underwear(my GOD, did I need some new undies!). None of that would have happened today if not for my getting this injury.
I have the perfect quote to sum this up, straight from my favorite character of one of my favorite animes.
"Good things lead to bad things leading to more good things, and that's just life." ~Crow Hogan, Yu-Gi-Oh 5D's dub

This weekend the Lonesome Coyotes, Knoxville's premier purveyors of face-down-in-the-parking-lot, barbed wire-around-your-heart honky-tonk music, will reprise a tradition that's been a staple for the band since they reunited in 2002. Their performance at the Knoxville Museum of Art's Alive After Five series will be the fourth time in a row they've played the year's first set in the series, and if it's anything like the last three, there won't be enough beer or booze to last the whole evening. "We've never reformed," says singer Steve Horton.
"The first time we played that first-show-of-the-year slot, it snowed. We had just reunited and didn't know what to expect. To our amazement, we had Coyote fans lined out the door and the KMA ran out of alcohol. The latter condition happens every time we play Alive After Five."
The Coyotes are probably the only Strip-club band from the 1970s to have survived the centrifuge of that time and place intact, or at least to have pieced themselves back together. They originally had a 10-year off-and-on run, interrupted by one or two break-ups, from 1975 to 1985, and spent the summer of 1982 as the house band at the Budweiser Pavilion at the World's Fair. They got back together in 2002 for a benefit show at the Bijou Theatre. It was supposed to be a one-time performance, but they're still at it almost six years later—a stretch that marks the longest unbroken period they've been together.
For the band—Horton and Maggie Longmire, whose male-female vocal interplay is the band's signature; lead guitarist Hector Qirko; steel guitarist Jay Barron; drummer Doug Klein; and bassist Stan Turner—to have persisted, matured, and actually improved over the years required a fairly simple alchemy: they became family. They've also kept growing creatively. Qirko, Longmire, and Horton are all active with other bands and solo projects. And in addition to their archive of truck-stop jukebox classics, the Lonesome Coyote's repertoire is steadily accruing an hour's worth of original material by band members and songs from friends like R.B. Morris and Jim Rector.
"River Rat," an original Horton usually sings in a duet with Longmire, is on the set list for Friday, but, for the most part, the show will be a clinic in essential honky tonk: some Merle Haggard, some Ray Price, maybe some Johnny Horton, and, outside the bounds of country, maybe even the Fats Waller song "Ain't Misbehavin'." A scheduling conflict precludes La Longmire's presence, so, without the songstress' filigree as part of the overall sound, the boys will be relying purely on their knack for Longbranch- and Yosemite Sam's-era musical shit-kicking.
In Maggie's absence, drummer Klein will help Horton and Qirko fill out the vocals. (Collectors of Coyote minutiae take heed: Klein's turns at the microphone can be counted on one hand without using a thumb.) Barron will probably be coaxed into his beguiling version of Little Feat's "Dixie Chicken." Turner ("the Quiet One") isn't expected to say much, but if he does, it will be worth repeating at a party later. Rumor has it the enigmatic bassist will present his bandmates with some sort of totemic object during Friday's show, something evocative of the group's guiding spirit animal.
Longmire fans won't have to wait long for a dose of the Lily of LaFollette; she's scheduled a February release for her new CD. Qirko's solo acoustic exercise, Wherever You Go, is getting critical raves and a new record by the HQ Band is about two months away. The Coyotes have two recordings: Just Like New, from 2005, is indicative of the band's growing interest in original songs, and 8202, a self-produced collection of barroom favorites released soon after the band's 2002 revival, is a faithful reproduction of the band's original honky-tonk roots. Expect a little bit of both this weekend.
Oh, and memo to KMA: Lay in plenty of beer.

Shoes, Socks, and Sandals
From Pcwiki
General Comments
K6a patient: "I use extra cushion in boots and foot powder - jungle boots (breathable!) and cotton socks and I was able to walk all day ."
K6a patient: "Wear flip flops around the house and where ever else I can. Call them "my Lagunas" (that's the brand name.) Has specially made insoles, but wears the flip flops around house becaues they're just as comfortable but allow feet to breathe and she can't stand wearing socks. The sweatier the feet get, the more they hurt."
K6a patient: "Cheap, rubber beach shoes. Best ones not shaped or molded, just a flat slab of foamy type material and are usually slip ons, like flip flops but slightly fancier. Work well because they're flat, soft and make allowances for hard skin. Quite thick so they absorb rocks on the ground and they keep feet from getting sweaty because they're airy."
K6a patient: "I wear sandals when on holiday but most of the time the shoes have to be laced (done up as tight as possible). I prefer a short boot as they support the ankles and hold the shoe/boot on."
Cx30 patient: "Only wear shoes that are soft, cushioned and of natural leather. Found heat is main factor in the pain with feet and it also causes my feet to swell, redden and of course blister. If wear covered shoes (like sneakers) that have a synthetic lining, feet generate so much heat from the friction can't walk. One dermatologist suggested I use a biopsy punch (he gave me one) to make small round holes in the instep of shoes and sneakers just above the sole to allow air to flow. "
K6a patient: " I buy my shoes at Enslow Shoes 470 Park Avenue South @ 32nd St New York."
K16 patient: "Zappos.com is a wonderful source for shoes. They carry many brands, widths, men's, women's and Children's. Shipping and return shipping is free and the shoes arrive in a couple of days. Here are some brands that carry cusion features:

Suntory Time: Japanese Whisky Coming to America
Filed under: Spirits
Around the same time, Suntory is also launching a special-edition Yamazaki 1984, a 96-proof blend of some 30 whiskies selling for around $600 to celebrate the brand's 25th anniversary – although the distillery itself was actually founded in 1899. Suntory whiskies are considered some of the world's best and have even been awarded top honors by several prestigious whisky tasting authorities, and should find a welcoming market in the United States. Thanks to Ben for the tip!

CHAPTER 5.Restraints on Displays of Ability411. Beyond the material advantages which men give and receive under the system of social cooperation, they give and receive nonmaterial advantages. These are the benefits, or satisfactions, or pleasures, obtained during social intercourse; and which may or may not be apportioned in the most desirable ways. Here the office of negative beneficence is that of so restraining the actions which bring such gratifications to self, as to allow others to obtain their shares. The superiorities, bodily or mental or both, which enable one citizen to exceed others in gaining wealth, but which, as we have seen, he ought not to utilize to the extreme, regardless of others' welfare, are superiorities which may also bring to him an unusually large share of approbation. Or an unusually large share of approbation may come to one who has superiorities of another order, conducive, say, not to material prosperity but to popularity. In such cases there arises the question–How far shall the superior push his advantages? To what extent shall he refrain from using his greater faculties; so that others may obtain applause, or may not experience the pain of defeat? Difficult questions grow out of these. The battle of life through which all higher powers, subhuman and human, have arisen, may rightly be carried out of that activity which has sustentation for its end, into that activity which has for its end the pleasures given by superfluous play of the faculties. In the absence of this competition, partly bodily but mainly mental, social intercourse would lose its salt. And yet in this field, as in the other, sympathy ought to produce a self-restraint limiting the pleasures of success. 412. A form of selfishness occasionally displayed, and rightly condemned, is that of men who display without bounds their remarkable conversational powers. Of various brilliant talkers we read that on some occasions the presence of others who vied with them, raised obvious jealousies; and that on other occasions, in the absence of able competitors, they talked down everyone, and changed what should have been conversation into monologue. Contrariwise, we sometimes hear of those who, though capable of holding continuously the attention of all, showed solicitude that the undistinguished or the modest should find occasions for joining in the exchange of thoughts: even going to the extent of "drawing them out." Men of these contrasted types exemplify the absence and presence of negative beneficence; and they exemplify. too, the truth, commonly forgotten, that undue efforts to obtain applause often defeat themselves. One who monopolizes conversation loses more by moral reprobation than he gains by intellectual approbation. Over the dinner table, or in groups of persons otherwise held together, there frequently occur cases in which an erroneous statement is made or an invalid argument urged. One who recognizes the error may either display his superior knowledge or superior logic, or he may let the error pass in silence: not wishing to raise the estimate of himself at the cost of lowering the estimate of another. Which shall he do? A proper decision implies several considerations. Is the wrong statement or invalid argument one which will do appreciable mischief if it passes uncorrected? Is the person who utters it vain, or one whose self-esteem is excessive? Is he improperly regarded as an authority by those around? Does he trample down others in the pursuit of applause? If to some or all of these questions the answer is–Yes, the correction may fitly be made; alike for the benefit of the individual himself and for the benefit of hearers. But should the error be trivial, or should the credit of one who makes it, not higher than is proper, be unduly injured by the exposure, or should his general behavior in social intercourse be of a praiseworthy kind, then sympathy may fitly dictate silence–negative beneficence may rightly restrain the natural desire to show superiority. Of course much of what is here said respecting the carrying on of conversation or discussion, applies to the carrying on of public controversy. In nearly all cases the intrusion of personal feeling makes controversy of small value for its ostensible purpose–the establishment of truth. Desire for the éclat which victory brings, often causes a mercilessness and a dishonesty which hinder or prevent the arrival at right conclusions. Negative beneficence here conduces to public benefit while it mitigates private injury. Usually the evidence may be marshaled and a valid argument set forth, without discrediting an opponent in too conspicuous a manner. Small slips of statement and reasoning, which do not affect the general issue, may be generously passed over; and generosity may fitly go to the extent of admitting the strength of the reasons relied on, while showing that they are inadequate. A due negative beneficence will respect an antagonist's amour propre; save, perhaps, in cases where his dishonesty, and his consequent endeavor to obscure the truth, demand exposure. Lack of right feeling in this sphere has disastrous public effects. It needs but to glance around at the courses of political controversy and of theological controversy, to see how extreme are the perversions of men's beliefs caused by absence of that sympathetic interpretation which negative beneficence enjoins. 413. A few words may be added respecting more special motives which should occasionally prevent the superior from manifesting his superiority. A game of skill is being played with one whose little boy is a spectator. The father's play is such as makes his antagonist tolerably certain of victory, should he put out his strength. But if he is adequately swayed by the sentiment of negative beneficence, he will, not obtrusively but in a concealed way, play below his strength, so as to let the father beat him. He will feel that such small pleasure as triumph might bring, would be far more than counterbalanced by sympathy with the annoyance of the father at being defeated in presence of his son, and by sympathy with the son on finding his father not so superior as he supposed. Though in this course some insincerity is implied, yet that evil is trivial in comparison with the evils otherwise entailed. In like manner none will doubt that one who, in a discussion or in a wit combat, might be easily overcome, may, even though at other times unworthy of consideration, be rightly let off under particular circumstances. Say, for instance, that his fiancée is present. To show that he is ignorant, or that he is illogical, or to utter a witticism at his expense, would be cruel. All but the unusually callous will see that to shame him before a witness with whom he stands in such a relation, would be an improper exercise of intellectual power. An interlocutor who is swayed by due fellow feeling, will, in such a case, consent to see himself ill-informed or stupid, rather than inflict the pain which would follow any other course. 414. Here, then, are ways in which negative beneficence should operate by voluntarily making a conscious superiority, and thus harmonizing social intercourse. Perhaps in such cases we see more clearly than in others, the propriety of mitigating, so far as we can, the pains caused by inequalities of faculty. As admitted on a previous occasion, the harsh discipline of nature, which favors the well-endowed and leaves the ill-endowed to suffer, has, from the human point of view, an aspect of injustice; and though, as we have seen, it is not permissible so to traverse the normal relation between conduct and consequence, as to equalize the fates of the well-endowed and the ill-endowed, it is permissible to modify its results where this may be done without appreciably interfering with the further progress of evolution. Though many difficulties stand in the way of thus qualifying the material effects which severally come to the efficient and the inefficient in the battle of life, yet comparatively little difficulty stands in the way of qualifying the mental effects, as socially manifested. There are doubtless cases in which display of mental power in conversation or controversy, conduces to pecuniary benefit, and may hence be regarded as rightly to be taken advantage of in the struggle for life; but in the cases above instanced, which typify the average cases, the more skilled player, or better talker, or keener logician, may hold his greater powers in check without endangering the prosperity of the superior, and may avoid discrediting a competitor without appreciably furthering the prosperity of the inferior. He may here diminish the evils caused by nature's unfairness, without entailing other evils. And restraint of the desire for triumph, thus inculcated by negative beneficence, is the restraint of a barbarous desire appropriate to early stages of human evolution. For the pride taken in victory over an opponent, is of like kind whether the opponent fights with hand or with tongue–wields the sword or wields the pen. The militant nature which throughout social progress has gloried in successful bodily encounters, is essentially the same militant nature which glories in successful mental encounters. In the interests of a higher civilization, therefore, there should be practiced this self-restraint which prevents a needless discrediting of the mentally inferior. |

CSIRO, the Commonwealth Scientific and Industrial Research Organisation, is Australia's national science agency and one of the largest and most diverse research agencies in the world.
Large-scale, long-term, multidisciplinary science to address Australia's major national challenges and opportunities.
CSIRO expertise is organised into 11 research areas
CSIRO manages national facilities and collections that are opened to researchers around Australia and overseas.
CSIRO is using bacteria to enhance the recovery of gas from coal seam reservoirs.
Novel technologies to reduce pipeline blockage are helping industry tackle a multi-million dollar problem.
Articulating the challenges for Australia in arriving at a sustainable transport fuel mix.
A partnership between CSIRO and VicDPI is exploring Victoria's basins for new oil and gas reserves.
- CSIRO's petroleum exploration research spans from source rock characterisation through petroleum systems modelling, traps and reservoir characterisation, to faults and marine geology. This range of expertise and capabilities can be used to augment current industrial techniques and approaches to reduce exploration, development and production risks.
- CSIRO researchers are investigating several techniques that may substantially increase the amount of oil that can be recovered from a reservoir.
- Working with industry, government and academia to deliver focused research and technology for the safe, efficient and sustainable use of Australia's marine wealth.
- New research and development are giving us access to gas resources that were previously uneconomical.
There are few resources with the same impact on the world economy as oil and gas. Petroleum products have widespread and important uses – from transport and power generation to consumer goods. As such, Australia's economic wealth and growth relies heavily on our petroleum endowment.
In terms of costs and benefits, petroleum is superior to other energy sources and is likely to remain a significant primary source of energy well into the future. It is therefore imperative to maximise the precious crude oil resources we have and recover the massive supplies of remote and unconventional gas located off North West Australia and along our Eastern seaboard.
New technologies are making it possible to meet the challenges faced in reaching and recovering oil and gas further offshore and from reservoirs that were previously inaccessible because they were uneconomical or too difficult to produce.

IN THIS ARTICLEToxoplasmosis TreatmentToxoplasmosis can be treated medically. There are several agents, usually used in combination, to treat infection by this parasite. The three drugs most often used in patients, including those with HIV, are pyrimethamine (Daraprim), sulfadiazine (Microsulfon), and folinic acid. However, pregnant patients are treated with spiramycin (Rovamycine) and leucovorin (Wellcovorin) in addition to the drugs listed above. Patients with HIV usually need lifelong treatment to keep the parasites suppressed. Other drugs occasionally used are clindamycin (Cleocin), azithromycin (Zithromax), or atovaquone (Mepron). These drugs are used mainly when the patient is allergic to pyrimethamine or sulfadiazine. Dosages vary; the best way to determine individual medical treatments, based on the patient health situation, is in consultation with an infectious diseases expert. Unfortunately, pyrimethamine (Daraprim) and sulfadiazine (Microsulfon) can cause significant side effects, especially in the fetus of pregnant individuals. Two of the major side effects are bone marrow suppression (leucovorin treatment can reduce this suppression) and liver toxicity for pyrimethamine. For sulfadiazine, side effects can be nausea, vomiting, liver toxicity, seizures, and other symptoms. These drugs are used in pregnant women because the risks of infection by Toxoplasma are usually more severe than the drug side effects. The treating physician should be notified quickly if such side effects develop. Must Read Articles Related to Toxoplasmosis

DareDevils set target of 163 for victory
The Mumbai Indians batting failed to fire in unison yet again as they were restricted to a total of 162 at the loss of eight wickets on a flat batting pitch of DY Patil Stadium in Navi Mumbai against Delhi Daredevils.
The target of 162 is defendable but not unachievable, considering the form of Delhi batsmen. Mumbai bowlers would have to do some extraordinary work to record their second win of the DLF Indian Premier League tournament.
It was looking like a good start for the Mumbai Indians. They appeared to be all geared up for taking on Delhi Daredevils on the home turf.
The crowd at Navi Mumbais D Y Patil stadium got opportunities to cheer as the opening pair, Sanath Jayasuriya and V Takawale hit Delhis bowlers for a six and a few boundaries. Mumbais batting line-up exuded confidence.
The first five overs went smooth but two quick jolts accompanied the sixth over, and the home crowd witnessed the fall of two wickets at a difference of a single ball. The dangerous bowler was Yo Mahesh. First it was Takawale who was caught by Sangwan off Maheshs delivery in 5.4 overs.
Next batsamn who comes for Jayasuriyas company is Dominic Thornley. Jaysauriya tries to regain from the loss and hits his next shot to an undisturbed boundary. But, Mahesh strikes again and the former Sri Lankan skipper succumbs to the fatal delivery as the ball uproots the off-stumps at 5.6 overs.

Syrian Vice President Farouq al-Shara "is a man of reason" who could replace President Bashar Assad, AFP quoted Turkish Foreign Minister Ahmet Davutoğlu as saying on Saturday.
According to AFP, Davutoğlu said on Turkish television channel TRT: "Farouq al-Shara is a man of reason and conscience and he has not taken part in the massacres in Syria. Nobody knows the (Syrian) system better than he."
According to the report, the Turkish foreign minister stressed that the Syrian opposition "is inclined to accept Shara" as the future leader of the Syrian administration.
Davutoglu also said he was convinced that the Syrian vice president was still in Syria, despite reports that al-Shara defected.
Shara, appointed six years ago after the defection of Abdul-Halim Khaddam, is a Sunni Muslim from the southern Deraa province where the 17-month-old uprising against the Alawite president first erupted.
The 73-year-old former foreign minister kept a low profile as the rebellion against Assad escalated, but appeared in public in July at a state funeral for three of Assad's top security officials killed in a bomb attack in Damascus.
Relations between Ankara and Damascus have deteriorated rapidly after Syrian shells killed five Turkish villagers last week when they were fired across the border. Turkish strikes have since continued for four days in retaliation for mortar bombs and shelling by Syrian forces.
Turkish Prime Minister Tayyip Erdogan warned Damascus last week Turkey would not shy away from war if provoked. Erdogan said his country did not want war but warned Syria not to make a "fatal mistake" by testing its resolve. Damascus said its fire hit Turkey accidentally.
NATO-member Turkey, once an ally of Assad, but now a leading voice in calls for him to quit, has nearly 100,000 Syrian refugees in camps on its territory and has allowed rebel leaders sanctuary. Its armed forces are far larger than Syria's.
The strikes and counter-strikes are the most serious cross-border violence in Syria's conflict, which began as a democracy uprising but has evolved into a civil war with sectarian overtones. They highlight how the crisis could destabilize the region.

Why go to a "Tech" university for psychology?
Technology drives lifestyle and people give technology its meaning. What better place is there to learn about these most important matters?
What is a customized program of study?
We encourage and support our students to develop their professional goals and we tailor their program to achieve those unique individual educational and professional goals. We are able to do this because we are small. Students who wish to pursue forensics, medicine, or human relations, to name a few examples, are positioned for those careers in the planning of their degree program.
What makes studying psychology at IIT different from majoring in psychology at a liberal arts college?
We think that being an Institute is an advantage; we know that we have a unique blend of programs; our students think that the best features of our program are:
- Quality of the teaching and one-on-one time with professors, even in the first year
- Small classes
- Research and internship opportunities for undergraduates
- Hands-on advising and mentoring of all students by full-time faculty
- Diverse and interesting students who gather in our funky campus center
What do you mean when you say you teach the "science" of Psychology?
Psychology is a profession with many different paths that are informed by scientific research. Our students have research opportunities and learn to be critical thinkers who can tell the difference between hype and fact. We award a B.S. degree, as opposed to a B.A.
Is it difficult to get into the Department of Psychology?
We are considered a competitive school. We evaluate each application fully and handpick our psychology students; the university requires a minimum ACT/SAT of 24/1150 (respectively) and a GPA of 3.0/4.0 for admission.
Are you accredited and nationally ranked?
IIT is accredited, and graduate programs of the Department of Psychology have additional accreditation. Respectively, our graduate programs in Rehabilitation Counseling and Industrial/Organizational are ranked 5th and 13th. The same faculty who helped us earn our national rankings teach our undergraduate students.
What can you do with an undergraduate degree in Psychology?
Our alumni have a strong record of employment success and acceptance to graduate school. People with a bachelor's degree in Psychology obtain jobs like admissions counselor, market researcher, childcare worker, fund raiser, and customer relations professional to name a few. A degree in Psychology is also a great foundation for graduate education in psychology, law, business, or medical school.
What is the size of the University?
The total student enrollment at IIT is approximately 7,409, with 2,576 undergraduates and over 70 undergraduate students in the Department of Psychology.
IIT is in Chicago; how safe is the campus?
IIT is located in the Bronzeville neighborhood, just 10 minutes south of downtown Chicago. Bronzeville and Bridgeport (just west of campus) are two of the fastest changing, trendiest neighborhoods in the city, with large populations of students, young professionals and artists. Full-time, academy trained public safety officers patrol the campus 24 hours a day in marked patrol cars, and on bicycles and foot patrol. Our campus is ranked as the 2nd safest campus in Chicago and is in the top 25 safest neighborhoods in the city (College Prowler, May 2012 per the National Center for Education Statistics IPEDS).
Will I be able to pursue my extracurricular activities and sports at IIT?
There are more than 140 clubs and special interest groups on campus. The sports center has men's and women's basketball, cross-country, swimming/diving, and soccer as well as men's baseball and women's volleyball and there are 10 teams at IIT as well as several intramural and club sports. We have fraternities and sororities; 70% of our students live on the campus.
What is the tuition and what types of financial aid are available?
Undergraduate costs can be found here.
All students are automatically reviewed for eligibility and over the past ten years, 100% of psychology incoming freshman have received some aid. We even have our own scholarship, the David J. Vitale Scholarship Fund for especially high-achieving psychology undergraduates. For more information go here.

I am definitely a new world fan. The wine trial, I find interesting, we're blind taste tests, with French judges. Even the french thought, when asked simply which was better, picked the California wines. Obviously, means nothing. What any one person likes compared to another is moot. I like red wine with fish, so go figure.
X gets the square.

Quote: I don't normally like silhouettes against sunsets but this one might just change my mind. In particular I really like the composition. Nice work.
There's just one thing................it's a sunrise............not a sunset ( it does what it says on the tin )

Hope you had as wonderful a holiday as I did in Rome, Jane! A very lovely and colourful sunrise

Watch It TODAY
On DVD
Watch Online
I thought this movie was good but not the best movie, i was looking for a comdey movie and this was on so i decieded to watch it. It was just ok thougj
I liked this movie because Jim Carry made the movie entertain by his funny jokes & his faceil expresions I thought this movie was good not great but still enjoyed it & I would love to see it again
Good, not great. Although Jim Carey is surprisingly less annoying in this film than he is in his others, it is nothing more than the average, highly predictable romantic comedy.
strongly recommend! some parts went a little over board, but i am glad i got my money worth by seeing this movie. But i also want to comment ******** not one of his best movies, if you want to see a better movie with him in it ACE VENTURA is the movie to watch!

For Alastair Humphreys life is one long adventure, which he wants to share with would be adventurers.
When he emerged from university, he decided to pursue his thirst for adventure. Now, as one of National Geographic's Adventurers of the Year, he is encouraging people to 'find adventure' wherever they can. This may not be at the top of a mountain or racing down tropical rapids. Alastair believes that we should all step outside of our normal experiences and chase the sense of adventure.
He spent last year undertaking a series of 'Micro Adventures' – which only demanded the desire to find and experience something new. As a native to the UK, Alastair chose to explore local locations. He swam the river Thames, spent four days living off the land in the woods and cycled to the UK's most northern island – to get there he had to island hop using an inflatable dingy.
Man of Action
Alastair is somewhat of an authority on the topic of adventure. Before he was named as one National Geographic's Adventurers of the Year, Alastair had cycled 46,000 miles around the globe, a journey he went on alone and that took four years. He has raced a yacht across the Atlantic; canoed 500 miles down the Yukon River in North America. Alastair was also one of the fastest Britons to finish the Marathon des Sables, across the Sahara Desert, even though he broke his foot in the process!
Alastair's latest initiative – 'A Night of Adventure' – brings together other adventurers to tell their stories in a series of unusual lectures in 'a celebration of adventure in all its guises'.
Guests include cyclers, ocean rowers, runners, kayakers and photographers. Even the lectures have been set up like a marathon. Each adventurer is given a slide limit of 20 for their presentations, which automatically change to the next slide every 20 seconds.
But the events, which take place across the UK, also involve 'the spirit of giving'. Money raised at the lecture series will help the charity Hope and Homes for Children, which helps children in Sierra Leone. For more information visit the Hope and Homes website.

Are you going to buy a Telsa? If not then why worry about "fire" issues? Better to worry about what Obama is doing to OUR country. Now that's worth worrying about.
When Obama took office in 2008 gas price was $1.86 per gallon nation wide! It skyrocketed from that day and has been inflated ever since. Remember, Obama said in his campaign that America should pay $10.00 per gallon for gasoline. Thank goodness he didn't get his way. Thank goodness his whole "Green Energy" agenda has failed right before his eyes! Billions of taxpayer dollars were paid to his failed Green Energy cronies!
Well, at least it's not $3.47 like in parts of Michigan, or $3.73 in upstate NY, or $4.19 in Cambria, California! You and I and folks in Texas and Tennessee have a break compared to them and those in Canada, Alaska and Hawaii! Europe is worse still! Pahkah!
Priviet/Ciao/Hi! You're welcome on the heads up! Funny, the price went up slightly still, went up at the pump by only a penny or two or three here at some of them, then it's gone down at all of them, and gone up by 10 to 35 cents a gallon in other parts of the country and yet on the wholesale market, it went up slightly, then it's been going up and down in a range of $2.62 to $2.69 a gallon ever since! Up two to four days, down one to three days! Still in that range now. Most of the big players got out of it! It should be trending down soon though for all of us, at least a little bit and for a short term of one to five weeks. I hope so anyhow! If you have the time, go check out this video or both of them. I think you'll like 'em both: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=sp7PS_UN8Lo then this one http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o3mP3mJDL2k Have a great night and weekend!
No time for me to talk much. Oil and gas are up and still headed up on the wholesale market. You might want to get fueled up within the next day or two,, preferrably today, even the company you work for might want to. It's up by 8 cents a gallon on gas, which means it should be going up within two to three days max. Though we'll see how much within the next day or two or for how long. I try to warn as many ahead of time so they save a few pennies or a few bucks. Pass it on to others if you want!
No way. I'm sooo glad we can get it here. And the price isn't too bad after the first week. A few years ago I ran into a guy from the Midwest who told me they can get it there... but at $30.00/lb. And that was several years ago. Usually comes in here right around Mother's Day.
Oh MAN, you're NOT JOKING!!!
That Copper River Salmon is good stuff! I like it and fish in-general.
Tanan/Mesi/Kalaanon/Arigato/Shukran/Thank you! I appreciate the compliment and sure do hope I find that good job, good employer, etc. I need it and so do others.
Congratulations on posting for 1903 consecutive days, that's real commitment. Happy New Year to you and your family. .YB.Shep

Hey gus I really love the figure studies you did in painter, you got me excited to do some of those. Keep plugging away sir, things are looking damn good, its good that your working hard on multiple aspects; drawing, digital and perspective. Keep the it rolling man.
Great stuff! The vehicles are awesome. I hate drawing vehicles, so I need to do more. Good work on the figure studies, too. That's the important stuff. Keep it up!
it's always good to see some more id people representing on here, those painter studies are really really nice, keep it up man!
thanks for all the kind words guys.
yes, sorry, not really an art update unfortunately... here's some sans of what i'm working on for school... it's construction site lighting. Really busy with the final review this coming weds which means 2 things:
firstly: massive art update enroute, expect concept renders, final sketch rendings, pictures of 3dprinted mockups, etc etc... THE WORKS
secondly: i'll have free time again... thus more painter and other... oh it's good to be graduating in december. w00t man
check it out- here's a little view into my mixed and rather irregular thought process
not quite sure where i was goin with this one. might work on the sky later, color suggestions welcome... it's kinda flat now that i look at it more.
New years resolution: DRAW DRAW DRAW DRAW. Yeah...
thar be drawings here.
in an attempt to update this more frequently, i scribbled some things in the 'ol sketcher. go figure... how simple was that? I gather it wasn't too painless for you out there either now was it?
some hands. scribble scribble
robot chick of sorts.
wip... going to finish it up tomorrow. started out kinda meh, little more happy with it now. Might go into painter and pretty it up with some lighting and such.
updated WIP.
going into painter and digitizing it now. this may take a while.
stay tuned, i'll have another step tomorrow. ha!
cool stuff man, I like the quality of your drawings.
The head of the robot chick isn't really doing it for me. it looks a bit flat and weird with those tubey things coming off the top. In contrast though I really like the hip area, I think you've drawn this superbly. Very solid.
Keep it up!
nethus thanks for the imput. i agree her head is flat. my anatomy could use some work.
and what nicer way to illustrate this than with more awkward anatomy and stuff... in retrospect, this head is slightly less flat... i guess.
whatever i need to study more and scribble less... yeah that might help
scribbled some thumbnails during work, decided to digitize them a bit.
probably going to turn into something when i got the time. Slaveship transport or such... i'm thinking spanish inquisition of the future, one of my personal favorite topics. Ha...
new and improved with more crap and less filter.
sketches of cafe peoples
other random planes and shit
trying to get to some figure drawing sessions, expect that stuff next week.
power boots for IDW.
thinking teleportation might be fun.
dude from ref (flickr).
starting to go through the library of images i've collected
here's the first of many
Last edited by Mark Bot; February 4th, 2008 at 12:10 PM.
wip for the IDW.
hopefully finish this in time. we shall see... x.x
meh. idw 59
should've managed my time better.
good stuff i'm really liking the vehicles and all the hand studies. i also like your lighting on your digi paintings. all i can say is work more on anatomy and maybe some face studies as well. very nice stuff.
To live is to create, to create is to live. Without art and music, I do not know how I would get by in my day to day life.
thesadpencil thanks for the word. as for anatomy i'm going to figure drawing sessions more often now, you should start seeing some of those popping up here and there as i get stuff i like. don't really want to overburden everyone with crappy warmup sketches heh...
starting to scribble any little thought i have as i'm doing other stuff. takes minimal amount of time and gives monster reward. Now i'm actually getting ideas on paper, which is a massive leap from what i had before.
anyhow. some thumbs for a composition i'm working out in my head and a little robot, harvester type thing for the IDW crop harvester thinger.
I don't necessarily know what's goin on there, but I likes it anyhow. Markers and, what is that, chalk or white charcoal? I ain't savvy enough to tell, but cool enough. The noses a few back are cool too. Yeah, I got no crits for ya. Just sittin here, bein inspired.
Broken Sanity Sketchbook
Balding Revolvers (under construction)
I really like your style,
What is the medium is the grey/red on reddish paper? It looks interesting
bunch of figure drawings done today, mostly 5 and 10min poses
using blue prismacolor on Bienfang graphics 360 (9x12)
most of the pages were doublesided, sorry for the ghosting.
also loaded a pic of the pens i usually use:
blue prismacolor
white prismacolor
prismacolor cool grey 30%
pilot v5
ultra fine point sharpie
the SB is recycled tan-ish paper, fun to play w/ values on you should be able to find it at most art stores.
JJ McKool and XXITheWorld Thx for the comments. hopefully i answered your questions ^_^
great line quality in the figure drawings.
don't leave out the head though. even if you just indicate it with an oval shape or box shape or something. something to indicate it's direction and size is enough if you're short on time.
nethus thx for the comment. yeah i was pretty happy with how the lines on those turned out. i agree, i need to put the heads in. I also need to work in a medium that scans a little better. Blue prismacolor on translucent vellum is great for drawing but sucks for reproduction.
hands fun. some from photos, some from me.
check out my watch yo! betcha can't guess what brand it is. HA!
more figures next time, maybe some robots too.
here's some figure drawings from the saturday session @ atelier
was focusing more on rendering this time around, in hindsight i should be focusing on proportions more. those are way, way, waaaay off. it's painful
if you're in the area i highly recommend you go, fun times are to be had.
also is a art crusade piece i'm working on. i'd say i'm like 20% done rendering, but you can get an idea where it's headed. comments & crits are welcome.
Cool stuff man. Keep workin on anatomy. Nice vehicles. Keep posting!
I'm only 15 and would like some comments/critiques/tips so CHECK OUT MY SKETCHBOOK! Please =] http://conceptart.org/forums/showthread.php?t=117399
ItalianHorsey: thanks ^^
figures from monday
mostly 10's and a 20.
trying to work on line and then shadow if i get the time
analyzing proportions. i really need to get better at page placement.
Nice figure drawings - Only crit would be they always seem a bit squashed
kidult thanks. i agree. i need to get better at placing figures on the page
check it out!
portrait from ref and a current WIP for the art crusade.
meh. still getting the feel with painter, getting distracted by creating brushes that i'll never use. ha...ha
lovely drawings! A question: what kind of toned paper sketchbook are you using? I have been trying to find a good one for ages.

Hotels for New Year's Eve in Times Square, NYC
You can be one of the million people brave enough to be in Times Square watching the ball drop on New Year's Eve, or you can be one of the 100 million who'll be watching it on tv, safely parked in your couch.
Or… you could be one of the few smart ones who'll be in Times Square and watch the ball drop live and in person, but from a comfortable viewing perch up in a hotel.
These are the few hotels in Times Square that have a clear view of the ball, and some that are even going out of their way with NYE packages and specials.
Crowne Plaza Times Square: NYE package for 2 includes a luxurious room, a bottle of champagne, party favors, free welcome amenity and 2 spots in a special viewing area to watch the Times Square Ball Drop live.
Renaissance New York: Distance from ball drop – 0 miles. Hard to beat that. They don't have an NYE package per se, but the rooms that do have a ball drop view (may not be available) are worth a lot more than any package deal.
Casablanca Hotel: Package includes a champagne toast on the roof to watch the extravaganza unfold below. Also includes a bottle of Italian wine, free breakfast buffet, and a dinner party (with open bar) for 2 on Dec 31 at the hotel's restaurant and a wine and cheese reception before that.
DoubleTree Guest Suites: Package includes suite plus overnight parking, breakfast and a bottle of champagne delivered on Dec 31. Two day minimum stay (Dec 30-31) required.
Marriott Marquis Times Square: Hard to talk about Times Square and New Year's Eve celebrations without mentioning this hotel, since they do have a view of the ball drop and their NYE party is one of the hottest tickets in town. For more details, call 212-704-8747.
Hampton Inn Manhattan (Times Square North): One of the closest hotels to the ball drop. They don't have an NYE package, but if there's a possibility for scoring a relatively cheap room in Times Square for New Year's eve, then it has got to be at this hotel.

This greatest of all Frankenstein movies begins during a raging thunderstorm. Warm and cozy inside their palatial villa, Lord Byron (Gavin Gordon), Percy Shelley (Douglas Walton), and Shelley's wife Mary (Elsa Lanchester) engage in morbidly sparkling conversation. The wicked Byron mockingly chastises Mary for frightening the literary world with her recent novel Frankenstein, but Mary insists that her horror tale preached a valuable moral, that man was not meant to dabble in the works of God.
