After a morning full of less-than-ideal weather — on and off rain showers, occasional snow flurries, gusting winds and chilly temperatures — Head Coach Josh McDaniels was asked if he planned on conducting the afternoon practice session outdoors or at the team's indoor facility just down the street.
Although the club practiced at "the bubble" during minicamps, the club hasn't been back at the indoor facility since then. McDaniels said returning indoors isn't in the cards anytime soon, citing that the team needs to get used to possible conditions that could arise on Sundays.
"If we are going to play in it, I hope we've practiced in it," McDaniels said. "That's going to be our philosophy. If it's wet, damp, raining, snowing, whatever — we're going to be outside."
To McDaniels, attention to detail is a focal point of his day-to-day operations, and having players ready for the conditions they may face on Sunday is one of his priorities. McDaniels said the most important issue when preparing to play in poor weather conditions is for players to understand what they can and can't do the same compared to normal conditions. For instance, players likely can't cut the same way, quarterbacks may not be able to make the same throws downfield and the kicking is game is almost always affected by poor weather.
Thus, McDaniels wants his players to simulate all sorts of game experiences in all conditions before they take to the field on Sunday.
"You can't just tell the guys, 'Hey we're going to practice inside in a bubble all week long and then we go out there and play in the snow on Sunday, just make sure you do all the things you're supposed to do when the weather is bad — stay on your feet, field the ball, throw it in the wet (weather) and all that stuff,'" McDaniels said.
As of Thursday afternoon, Sunday's forecast calls for a 30 percent chance of precipitation and temperatures ranging between the low 30s and high 40s. During Thursday's practice session, conditions were nearly identical to that estimation, as temperatures were in the low 30s and snow showers appeared throughout the windy two-hour session.
The way Ryan McBean looks at it, the team might as well get used to playing in snow and sleet since the Broncos will likely face similar circumstances at some point during the season.
"That's what we are going to be playing in, so you've got to prepare yourself for anything," McBean said. "You want to practice what you are going to be playing in."
Only in the rarest of circumstances does McDaniels foresee his team practicing at its indoor facility this season.
"If there was some clear-cut thing where we knew the weather was going to be beautiful on Sunday and we are out there trying to practice in two feet of snow, I don't think that would be smart," he said. "If the weather has a chance to be poor on the weekend, I think we've got to get ready for it."
There were no changes to the Broncos' Week 5 Injury Report. On the Patriots side, after not participating in Wednesday's practice, WR Randy Moss (not injury related) was not listed on Thursday's report. Linebacker Adalius Thomas (not injury related) was added to the report, and did not participate in Thursday's practice.

The Interborough Rapid Transit Company (IRT) was the private operator of the original underground New York City Subway line that opened in 1904, as well as earlier elevated railways and additional rapid transit lines in New York City. The IRT was purchased by the City in June 1940. The former IRT lines (the numbered lines in the current subway system) are now the A Division or IRT Division of the Subway.
The first IRT subway ran between City Hall and 145th Street at Broadway, opening on October 27, 1904. It opened following more than twenty years of public debate on the merits of subways versus the existing elevated rail system and on various proposed routes.
Founded on May 6, 1902, by August Belmont, Jr., the IRT's mission was to operate New York City's initial underground rapid transit system after Belmont's and John B. McDonald's Rapid Transit Construction Company was awarded the rights to build the railway line in 1900, outbidding Andrew Onderdonk.[1] On April 1, 1903, over a year before its first subway line opened, the IRT acquired the pre-existing elevated Manhattan Railway by lease, gaining a monopoly on rapid transit in Manhattan. The Manhattan EL was the operator of four elevated railways in Manhattan with an extension into the Bronx. The IRT coordinated some services between what became its subway and elevated divisions, but all the lines of the former Manhattan EL have since been dismantled.
The IRT ceased to function as a privately held company on June 12, 1940, when its properties and operations were acquired by the City of New York.
Today, the IRT lines are operated as the A Division of the subway. The remaining lines are underground in Manhattan, except for a short stretch across Harlem at 125th Street and in northernmost Manhattan. Its many lines in the Bronx are predominantly elevated, with some subway, and some railroad-style right-of-way acquired from the defunct New York, Westchester and Boston Railway, which now constitutes the IRT Dyre Avenue Line. Its Brooklyn lines are underground with a single elevated extension that reaches up to New Lots Avenue, and the other reaching Flatbush Avenue via the underground Nostrand Avenue Line. The Flushing Line, its sole line in Queens, is entirely elevated except for a short portion approaching its East River tunnel and its terminal at Flushing – Main Street (the whole Manhattan portion of the line is underground). The Flushing Line has had no track connection to the rest of the IRT since 1942, when service on the Second Avenue El was discontinued. It is connected to the BMT and the rest of the system via the BMT Astoria Line on the upper level of the Queensboro Plaza station.

More copies of this ISBNUnfolding the Napkin: The Hands-On Method for Solving Complex Problems with Simple Picturesby Dan Roam
Synopses & ReviewsPublisher Comments:An original workbook companion to the acclaimed business bestseller The Back of the Napkin Dan Roam's The Back of the Napkin, a BusinessWeek bestseller, taught readers the power of brainstorming and communicating with pictures. It presented a new and exciting way to solve all kinds of problems-from the boardroom to the sales floor to the cubicle jungle. The companion workbook, Unfolding the Napkin, helps readers put Roam's principles into practice with step-by-step guidelines. It's filled with detailed case studies, guided do-it-yourself exercises, and plenty of blank space for drawing. Roam structured the book as a complete four-day visual-thinking seminar, taking readers step-by-step from "I can't draw" to "Here is the picture I drew that I think will save the world." The workbook teaches readers how to: •Improve their three "built-in" visual problem solving tools. •Apply the four-step visual thinking process (look-see-imagine-show) in any business situation. •Instantly improve their visual imaginations. •Learn how to recognize the type of problem to choose the best visual solution. If The Back of the Napkin was a guide to fine dining, Unfolding the Napkin is the cookbook that will soon be heavily marked up and dogeared. Synopsis:This companion workbook to "The Back of the Napkin" helps readers put Roam's principles into practice with step-by-step guidelines. It's filled with case studies, do-it-yourself exercises, and plenty of blank space for drawing.
About the AuthorDan Roam is founder and president of Digital Roam Inc., a management consulting firm that helps businesses solve problems through visual thinking. He has brought his unique approach to clients such as Microsoft, Wal-Mart, Wells Fargo, the U.S. Navy, HBO, NewsCorp., and the U.S. Senate.

Chicken, potatoes and leeks lightly coated in a sauce made with stout and mustard make a lovely one-pot meal. Stout, a strong, dark beer, is brewed from roasted malt or barley and hops. There are many different types. It has a distinct toast flavor; however, any type of beer can be used for this dinner.
Leeks look like a giant green onions with tightly wrapped broad, dark green leaves. This makes it difficult to clean the dirt from the leaves. The quickest way to clean them is to trim the root end and make 4 to 5 slits from top to bottom. Run the leaves under cold water to reach the dirt trapped between the layers.
Wine suggestion: You know what? I'd drink stout with this.
Stout-Soused Chicken with Potato and Leeks
Dijon mustard can be used instead of coarse-grain mustard. Makes 2 servings.
1 tablespoon canola oil
3/4 pound boneless, skinless chicken thighs
Salt and freshly ground pepper
2 medium leeks, cleaned and sliced (about 2 cups)
3/4 pound red or yellow potatoes, with skin, cut into 1-inch pieces
1 cup sliced carrots
3/4 cup stout

Q. I have a Honda VFR800FI, a 1998 model. The front header pipe has snapped right at the point it joins to the cylinder head so I've had to invest in the whole downpipe collector unit. I've never had my bike apart but I have a workshop full of tools and six mechanics to help me out so I should ...

Editor's note: It is Booklist policy that a book written or edited by a staff editor receive a brief descriptive announcement rather than a review.
It's winter, 1987, in Garden City, Montana, a sleepy college town with more bars than churches. Eighteen years ago, Gil Strickland was named Teacher of the Year. But those days are long gone for the once-idealistic instructor at Porte l'Enfer High—right now, it's all he can do to get to class sober and turn his lesson plans in on time. His job in jeopardy, he's dogged at every step by a vice principal who works with evangelical zeal. When a quiet, often-absent cheerleader crashes her car into a billboard after a party, Gil, like everyone else, thinks it's a typical case of teen misjudgment. But when the dead girl's friend sneezes blood all over her uniform, the incident awakens something he'd thought was long dead: interest in his students. Against his better judgment, and over the objections of his wife and best friend, Gil begins clumsily following clues. He uncovers evidence of a crime ring that preys on his students, but he's in over his head. Up against gun-toting bad guys, the only weapon he's ever wielded is a red pen. He has a chance to save his soul, but can he save his students—and himself?

after all i got him convinced i am chris PMSL!!
it does make me chuckle to know i have you both dancing like confused little puppets on a string getting all wound up by my posts (why else would you keep biting at my words mr angry hehehe)
the funniest bit is i am not rikk or chris. could you 2 be any stupider? LOL

tell us how you stood on the old north bank and walked the streets of laaaanden in the 70s and yet you are still trolling the net in your old age gilly?
how many strands you got left on that combover J A C K?
hic! -
writes pixie the very short person (shhh) who only ever makes mature football related posts.

nice work butch. youve really got her riled up hehehehe
wibble wibble -
''if you live in another country then I can understand how you would be short of facts''
LMFAO at the YANK
you really are nothing more than a nasty little racist bully eh baldy (oops I mean Jacov) which is about right seeing as you spend all your time taking it up the jacksy from big redkneck lumberjacks down the well hung rump! have they dislogded your log jam yet dodge? -
''I myself do not believe it is down to a lack of playing staff, i think the squad is more than capable this season''
writes pixie, gearing himself up to play his usual INJURIES/CONFIDENCE cards PMSL
wenger knows! -
'we're not supermen, we are fragile '
like every Farcenal fan in here then.
poor ickle fragile baldthick
poor ickle fragile Farcenal getting bullied by those nasty men. story of the wenger years then?
ahahahahaha -
Your 'quality' certainly shone through deepox. Your perenial 'title challenge bottlers'. got done by agricultural mid table fodder hehehehe

dont you think its a coincidence that you, jack s, jacob, dodge, jackspratt, gillian ALL quote the well hung gun? we dont. has the penny dropped yet?

"Jacob's" last three posts. (Yes, we know it's Dodgybanana, but just play along)
by Old Mother Oink! Feb 22, 2014 10:15my bet is the well hung f*g bar doesnt have wheelchair access so my guess is dodge/jacob/jack s/gilly/baldrick gets his ar5e fetish looking through his letterbox at men walking past his bedsit.

Shellfish isn't just tasty, it's good for you too. It's high in iron, which transports oxygen around your body and vitamin B12, which helps turn food into energy. Oysters and clams are a good source of zinc, which supports your immune system. Shellfish does have around 50 mg of cholesterol per 3-ounce serving. But cardiologists agree that saturated fat is more detrimental to blood cholesterol levels than dietary cholesterol. And most shellfish offer some omega-3s, one of the types of fat that can actually improve your cholesterol. Unlike larger seafood species, shellfish are low on the food chain, so they don't accumulate harmful contaminants like mercury.
There's an old adage that says you should only eat shellfish in months with the letter "R" in them, as in, September through April, because the water temperatures are colder during those months. But that bit of kitchen wisdom is outdated because monitoring ensures that shellfish are not harvested during toxic algae blooms, which can occur in warmer waters.

Comments about Intrigue Eyelashes:
I bought these in the store and I love wearing them to work (I work in a Spirit store) and when playing around with makeup.
My only complaint is that you do need to use your own eyelash glue (or purchase some). Thankfully I already had some from previous makeup uses.
These are fantastic and beautiful, just as glittery as the picture shows! I got so many compliments, especially when I gave myself rainbow eyeshadow. People love them and so I!

Explorers suspend operations Albany, NY (Sports Network) - The Continental Basketball Association announced on Monday that the Great Falls Explorers will cease operations effective Monday, February 25. The member teams of the CBA will not make up the remaining home games in Great Falls. The Explorers are 13-23 this season and ongoing arena issues have forced the team to cease playing. "This is an unfortunate turn of events for the Great Falls Explorers and the CBA as a whole," said Explorers CEO Michael Tuckman. "Due to our ongoing arena issues, I just felt it was in the best interests for myself and the CBA to suspend operations for the remaining portion of the season. "I knew when I took the helm in November it would be mission difficult with the arena issues at Four Seasons, it has just turned into mission impossible. If the arena issues are dealt with in a manner that it makes fiscal sense to return to Great Falls, I would come back immediately." 02/25 18:07:09 ET Powered by The Sports Network. |

Is DoD ignoring lessons learned from insourcing?
The Defense Department has been trying to improve efficiencies and cut costs by using both competitions with the private sector and High Performance Organizations (HPOs), a solution based in-house rather than on a public-private competition.

NOTICE: The Sneath Lane Trail will be closed periodically from July 2012 through February 2012. Work for the SFPUC Water System Improvement Project must be completed during dry conditions and requires the closure of the Sneath Lane Trail. Sweeney Ridge can be accessed at Skyline College and Shelldance Orchid Gardens.
More trail closure information >>
Sweeney Ridge is a hilly hiking area of ridges and ravines between San Bruno and Pacifica, about a 25-minute drive south from San Francisco. The ridge's 1,200-foot-high summit, covered with coastal scrub and grassland, slopes down to the bay on one side and to the Pacific on the other.
Wildlife at Sweeney Ridge includes hawks, deer, and a plethora of both native and introduced spring wildflowers. The sandy coastline and adjacent wind-protected valley of Thornton State Beach are good venues for picnicking, beach walking, surf fishing, and flying remote-control gliders.
The entrance to the beach is just south of Fort Funston. Park on Highway 35 (Skyline Boulevard) at the gate across from John Daly Boulevard.

Reviews for Herbed Slow Cooker Chicken(53)
Sort By :
I threw in a few extra spices and also chopped up a bunch of celery and carrots. I didn't get to eat it the first night so it got reheated for about 45 minutes in the crock pot. OMG, it was soooo. Ladled a scoop of that wonderful brother over some broccoli and rice and it was a lovely meal.
Seasoning was good. I tweaked a few things for our preferences, but I didn't really change a lot. However the chicken broth, in my opinion, is almost entirely unnecessary. I added a tiny amount and left it at that. When I made it with the full amount, there was so much liquid in there from the broth and the chicken that the chicken basically boiled in the crock pot.
First, I read many of the comments about the recipe before making it. When I made the paste I resisted the urge to tweak the spices with the exception of using smoked paprika instead of regular. I had 2 large boneless, skinless chicken breasts on hand and was cooking for two. (Did not change amounts in the spice glaze.) After coating each side I used a pronged meat tenderizer to drive spices into chicken and added another coat before putting them into the crock. I also sautéed one fresh garlic clove in 1 tbsp of butter and added it to the broth. There was to much broth for two half breasts in a 4 qt pot so I added a layer of potatoes underneath. I ended up with a very tasty mealb (chicken was flavorful). The spices were not over powering. But next time I will season the potatoes as well as the chicken, before cooking.
I'm not sure if it was the reason for it being so moist, but I poked each chicken piece with a fork after spreading the topping. (I used boneless, skinless chicken breasts.) I also added some potatoes to the pot to soak up the broth flavor.
It was simple and delicious.
This chicken was so bland and I had to doctor it so much that I would not suggest this recipe to anyone. I also added potatoes, carrots, and onions in addition to other seasonings just to "Save" dinner.

Carbo FAQ by Nancy ClarkBy Nancy Clark, MS, RDEver since Dr. Atkins came out with his carbohydrate-bashing high protein diet, active people (who had been happily enjoying bagels, pasta and pretzels as the foundation of their meals) have suddenly started shunning these excellent sources of muscle fuel. Instead, they are eating more egg whites, cottage cheese, soy shakes and protein-based foods. But questions abound about the role of carbohydrates in the sports diet as well as concerns about insulin and the glycemic effect of foods. Let's talk about carbohydrate confusion and provide some clarity for active people who want to eat wisely. Good health, high energy, weight control and top performance. Q: Are carbs fattening? ... Should I eat less of them? A: Carbohydrates are not fattening. Excess calories are fattening. Excess calories of carbohydrates (bread, bagels, pasta) are actually less fattening than are excess calories of fat (butter, mayonnaise, frying oils) because the body has to spend calories to convert excess carbohydrates into body fat. In comparison, the body easily converts excess calories of dietary fat into body fat. This means, if you are destined to be gluttonous but want to suffer the least weight gain, you might want to indulge in (high carb) frozen yogurt instead of (high fat) gourmet ice cream. Q. Is there a difference between the carbs from starchy foods (like breads) vs the carbs in fruits and vegetables or in candy? As far as your muscles are concerned, there is no difference. You can carbo-load on jelly beans, bananas or brown rice; they are bio-chemically similar. Sugars and starches both offer the same amount of energy (16 calories per teaspoon) and both get stored as glycogen in muscles or used for fuel by the muscles and brain (via the blood sugar). The sugar in jellybeans is a simple compound, one or two molecules linked together. The starch in brown rice is a complex compound, hundreds to thousands of sugar molecules linked together. Sugars can convert into starches and starches can convert into sugars. For example: • When a banana is green (not ripe), it is starchy. As it gets older, it becomes sweeter; in fruits, the starch converts into sugar. • When peas are young, they are sweet. As they get older, they get starchier; in vegetables, the sugar converts into starch. Grain foods (wheat, rice, corn, oats) also store their energy as complex strands of sugar molecules, a starch. The starch breaks down into individual sugar molecules (glucose) during digestion. Hence, your muscles don't care if you eat sugars or starches for fuel because they both digest into the same simple sugar: glucose. The difference between sugars and starches comes in their nutritional value and impact on your health. Some sugars and starches are healthier than others. For example, the sugar is orange juaccompanied by vitamin C, folate and potassium. The sugar in orange soda pop is void of vitamins and minerals; that's why it's described as "empty calories." The starch in whole wheat bread is accompanied by fiber and B-vitamins. The starch in white breads has lost many health protective nutrients during the refining process. White bread provides muscle fuel, but fewer vitamins. Q. If carbs aren't fattening, why do high protein diets "work"? High protein diets seemingly "work" because— The dieter loses water weight. Carbs hold water in the muscles. For each ounce of carbohydrate you stored as glycogen, your body simultaneously stores three ounces of water. When you deplete carbs during exercise, your body releases the water and you experience a significant loss of weight that's mostly water, not fat. People eliminate a lot of calories when they eliminate carbohydrates. For example, you might eliminate not only the baked potato (200 calories) but also two pats of butter (100 calories) on top of the potato and this creates a calorie deficit. Protein tends to be more satiating than carbohydrates. That is, protein (and fat) lingers longer in the stomach than does carbohydrate. Hence, having high protein (and fat) eggs & bacon for breakfast stays with you longer than does a high carb bagel with jam. By curbing hunger, you have fewer urges to eat and can more easily cut calories until you start to crave carbs and binge eat. The overwhelming reason why high protein diets do NOT work is dieters fail to stay on them for a long time. They may lose weight, but only to regain it. The trick to losing weight is to learn how to manage the American food supply so you won't regain the weight. Remember: You should never start a food program you do not want to maintain for the rest of your life. Do you really want to never eat breads, potato or crackers ever again???? Q. I've heard white bread is "poison." Do you agree? White bread offers lackluster nutrition, but it is not "poison" nor a "bad" food. White bread can be balanced into an overall wholesome diet. That is, if you have bran cereal for breakfast and brown rice for dinner, your diet can healthfully accommodate a sandwich made on white pita for lunch. White bread's reputation for being "poison" is partially because of its high glycemic effect. That is, 200 calories of white bread quickly digests and causes the blood glucose (blood sugar) to elevate higher than would the same amount of a whole grain, fiber-rich bread. High blood glucose triggers the body to secrete insulin to carry the sugar out of the blood. Insulin can stimulate the appetite, as well as fat deposition. If you are physically fit, however, your muscles readily store the sugar as glycogen with the need of much less insulin. Hence, active people can handle high carb foods and have less need to worry about a food's glycemic effect. Q. Should I choose foods based on their glycemic effect? As a general trend, yes. Foods with a low glycemic effect tend to be wholesome, fiber-rich fruits, vegetables and whole grains that are health protective and satiating. They can curb the appetite and help with weight management. Yet, the glycemic response to a food varies from person to person, as well as from meal to meal (depending on the combinations of foods eaten). Experiment to learn what food combinations satisfy you and offer lasting energy.

I know with the Mallincam MCHP, I find this difficult to do with stars oversaturated. This is probably not the camera's fault but rather my poor skills. Regards Gavin

I am pretty fussy about backing my data, after i suffered one of my worst hard drive crashes few months ago. Backup to me is not synonymous to working, as each day i make changes to files, create new software's and lots of other things which I would hate to lose again.
I have used various ways to backup data, including emailing files to myself, burning the files on a CD, making multiple copies on network computers etc. Doing each of these things is a bit time consuming and bit buggy.
But till date, the best of all methods I use for backups which I religiously use now, is backing my files to Gmail using a simple extension to Windows explorer called Gmail Drive Shell extension.
Gmail Drive Shell extension is basically a Shell Namespace extension that creates a virtual drive that will point to your Gmail account, allowing you to use your Gmail account as a backup device.
Screen shot of gmail drive
Some of the features I like are that it is just like your regular explorer drive and you can use similar function's like cut, copy, paste in this extension.
This is the best for backup's, I say this because in other method's like composing a mail it would mean you having to compose a mail, upload attachment's etc. Similarly writing a CD would include compiling it and then burning it which takes up some time too.
With Gmail Drive Shell Extension, it is as easy as drag and drop. You can also create folders with in the Gmail Drive just like your regular drives too
What happens to the files you copy to this new drive?
The files that you copy over get emailed to your Gmail account with a prefix containing the words GMAILFS using which you can create filters to label mails to any folders you want.
With the amount of space Gmail provides a whopping 2.7 GB and the number of accounts you can sign up with I safely can get my data backed up with ease and have it kept safe too. Well this is not only the most cheapest way of having your backups done but also one of the safest and hassle free method.
Though still there are some limitations such as the file name or folder name cannot exceed to be more than 65 characters. But I don't thingk this is a major concern right now.
Needless to say that to use the Gmail Drive you will need to have a active internet connection and a Gmail account for starters.
You can download this useful extension from Google Drive Shell Extension's site .

BULLDOGS OPEN LEAGUE PLAY 1-1 The BCC Volleyball team opened Northern Region play with a split, dominating Olympic College on September 19, and dropping a four game match at Skagit Valley College on September 24. The Bulldogs' victory over Olympic was the team's third consecutive three game sweep of an NWAACC opponent. Sophomore hitter Nicole Ljutic recorded 13 kills, and teammate Kasey Blevins led the team with 17 of her own. Freshman Sharon Kelley led both teams with 35 assists, while Amanda Crank, the reigning NWAACC Defensive Player of the Week, was solid again in recording 16 digs, helping BCC to a 30-24, 30-18, 30-20 victory. Bellevue's winning streak came to an end on Monday, September 24 at the hands of a tough Skagit Valley College team. The Bulldogs' offense was in top form, as Blevins recorded a season high 26 kills, and Jessica Dubois added 15 of her own. As good as the offense was, however, the defense was unable to stop the Cardinals. After winning the opening game 30-22, the Bulldogs dropped three consecutive games and the match 30-22, 26-30, 26-30, 29-31. With the loss, the Bulldogs' record stands even at 1-1 in league play. The team will return home this week for a pair of matches, the first against Shoreline Community College on September 26 at 7:00pm, and the second against Everett Community College on September 28, also at 7:00pm. Admission to all home matches is free for all BCC students, faculty and staff.

ALBANY - Robert Holcomb of the Chautauqua County Sheriff's Department was among 25 deputy sheriffs and civilian staff working in the civil law enforcement divisions from 18 Sheriff's departments around the state who recently attended a week-long continuing training program at the office of the New York State Sheriffs' Association Institute in Albany.
Sponsored and organized by the New York State Sheriffs' Association Institute, the program is the second in a two-part training program that provides participants with training in the latest advances in civil law enforcement. All Sheriffs have civil law enforcement functions, which include the service of process and enforcement of judgments and other court orders and mandates.
The second part of the training program covers some of the more difficult and time-consuming cases sheriffs face in their civil divisions.

Deputies who are expert in civil enforcement law serve as instructors. The school is required for counties seeking to earn accreditation of their civil office from the New York State Sheriffs' Association.
The New York State Sheriffs' Association Institute Inc., established in 1979, provides the only statewide training program for civil deputies. The training is provided without charge to any civil personnel nominated for the school by a sheriff. For more information, visit www.nysheriffsinstitute.org

A Los Angeles Apartment with Bohemian Decorating Style
With a passion for the handmade and humble, Roman Alonso, the creative director of design firm Commune, has filled his Los Angeles apartment with low furniture, burlap curtains, vintage home decor, and his collective's folksy pillows and linens. Take a tour of his creative space. Don't miss our favorite products from their artistic line of handmade housewares.
By David A. Keeps
Vintage Mix
In the living room Alonso mixed an early 1900s embroidered rug from the estate of Tony Duquette, a 1920s K.E.M. Weber chair, a turned walnut stool by Alma Allen, and vintage kilim pillows by Commune.
View Into the Bedroom
Alonso calls his buffalo hide rug "the monster under the bed." Plaid coverlet by Commune.
A Cozy Bedroom
In the treetop-view bedroom, curtains are painter's linen.
Mixed Patterns
A Jeff Burton photo hangs on a bedroom wall painted Benjamin Moore Dior Gray. Kilim pillows by Commune, linens by Matteo.
Jackie Print
A famous Ron Galella snap of Jacqueline Onassis dresses up the bath.
Collection Showcase
Shelves mounted on the batten-board siding of the room hold a framed scarf with Alexander Girard's 1967 International Heart print, a Buddha, a Frédéric Malle candle, and a 1970s
telephone. Pillows are by Commune.
Creative Library
Alonso converted a closet into a library. The stool is a cut-to-fit wooden block inside a colorfully decorated cardboard box. Hans Wegner Wishbone chair.
Natural and Warm
A built-in buffet and original paneling give the dining room a rich warmth. A vintage Danish table and chairs and a Noguchi Akari lamp sit on an Egyptian rug. Alonso designed natural burlap window panels that swag to the side. The recycled wine bottle glasses are by Heath Ceramics.
Vintage Stove and Decor
Posters for hippie-era concerts at the Fillmore in San Francisco line the wall above a vintage O'Keefe & Merritt stove.
Commune Table Setting
Commune linens, Coupe dishes by Heath Ceramics, and brass flatware Alonso's mother bought in the 1970s.
House Footwear
Chinese slippers from Free City nestle on a vintage rug.
Photo Frame Wainscotting
"I ran out of wall space," Alonso says, "so I just propped photographs on the floor. It's like wainscoting." Dennis Hopper's portraits of Tuesday Weld and Phil Spector and a photo by Lisa Eisner, Psycho Tulip, flank the window. His sofa is simply a twin mattress and box spring covered in painter's linen. He had a red linen shade made for the 1960s brass lamp. "I had seen one in a restaurant and thought, 'I want that.'"
Kitchen Gallery
In a kitchen corner, 1960s Cuban posters hang above a Lisa Eisner photo.
Art Book Collection
Alonso's reference library includes art books he published through Greybull Press, which he cofounded.
Craftsman House
The front entrance of Alonso's four-unit 1908 Craftsman apartment building.
Vintage American

Sexy but thin material. Good for bedroom or lounge but maybe not for everyday wear. I like it.Was this helpful? Sign in to vote.

Sized up as recommended as a result, extremely comfy fit, especially after washing. The burnout fabric is the best of both worlds: soft, smooth feel, but cool and breathable lightness for warmest days. Waistband perfect and comfortable fit, not elastic waist marks. Most of all the contoured pouch gives the boys a supportive, natural but roomy cradled fit. Closeout price was real good deal.1 of 1 thought this was helpful. Was this helpful? Sign in to vote.

Nice support. Size runs a bit on the small side so order one size larger.1 of 1 thought this was helpful. Was this helpful? Sign in to vote.

These is one word for this trunk...AMAZING!! I couldn't believe how comfortable they were and how great they look! I love the "burned out" pattern and how there is never a need for readjusting them as they fit perfectly in all the right areas..no extra fabric! This is a must have trunk!!!Was this helpful?

On the mystery of a ball that fills a box, but vanishes in the vastness of higher dimensions
Brian Hayes
In those childhood years when I was memorizing volume formulas, I also played a lot of ball games. Often the game was delayed when we lost the ball in the weeds beyond right field. I didn't know it then, but we were lucky we played on a two-dimensional field. If we had lost our ball in a space of many dimensions, we might still be looking for it.
The mathematician Richard Bellman labeled this effect "the curse of dimensionality." As the number of spatial dimensions goes up, finding things or measuring their size and shape gets harder. This is a matter of practical consequence, because many computational tasks are carried out in a high-dimensional setting. Typically each variable in a problem description is mapped to a separate dimension.
A few months ago I was preparing an illustration of Bellman's curse for an earlier Computing Science column. My first thought was to show the ball-in-a-box phenomenon. Put an n-dimensional ball in an n-dimensional cube just large enough to receive it. As n increases, the fraction of the cube's volume occupied by the ball falls dramatically.
In the end I chose a different and simpler scheme for the illustration. But after the column appeared ("Quasirandom Ramblings," July–August), I returned to the ball-in-a-box question out of curiosity. I had long thought that I understood it, but I realized that I had almost no quantitative data on the relative size of the ball and the cube.
(In this context "ball" is not just a plaything but also the mathematical term for a solid spherical object. "Sphere" itself is generally reserved for a hollow shell, like a soap bubble. More formally, a sphere is the locus of all points whose distance from the center is equal to the radius r. A ball is the locus of points whose distance from the center is less than or equal to r. And while I'm trudging through this mire of terminology, I should mention that "n-ball" and "n-cube" refer to an n-dimensional object inhabiting n-dimensional space. This may seem too obvious to bother stating, but some branches of mathematics adopt a different convention. In topology, a 2-sphere lives in 3-space.)

Just a thought that may be naive, but : if there are enough "corners" (approaching infinity) does the superhypercube begin to be smooth, "round" or even Sphere-like? And: can/does this occur at a low...posted by James AmodioNovember 17, 2011 @ 10:11 AM
I am interested in to see the program you used for your calculation.posted by hadi moussaviNovember 17, 2011 @ 2:47 PM
What an interesting article! Thanks. I think the "zany" attribute is lessened if you take the "unit" n-ball as having radius 1/2. I.e. it fits in a "unit" n-cube. See http://dbarc.net/dcnballs.jpg...posted by Dave CromleyDecember 10, 2011 @ 6:44 PM
