Sore wrists and new shapes
Since my last post, I've spent a ton more time at the forge, although I had Thursday off to rest my wrists, since they were sore enough on Tuesday night that I needed to ice them. This week I learned to make several new shapes, and I also got to observe a variety of other projects. I took some videos this week which are linked throughout, and just like last week there are some links to pictures and pages from the web for the sake of explanation. I'll also put a link at the end to a Picasa album with all of the pictures I've taken so far (plus captions), and I'll update that from now on even before I post each week.

Arnon squashing some pipe
You're definitely getting better!
Also the sheer strength required is impressive, to be able to just hit things with hammers all day.
Also the hydraulic press is *awesome*. Opens whole new realms of possibilities.
Math! Yay!
It would be cool to mention those mathematical spirals when you do your presentation! I think we talked about those in precal, yeah?
I am especially wondering who buys the spikes, nails, and hammers...
This is one of the most interesting senior projects I can ever remember. I am not surprised your wrists are sore. I wonder how Arnon and Nitzan feel at the end of a day at the forge - they must take a lot of Advil!
Good luck with the knife. Yoko and I will find a time to visit!
I like the song of the team forging
Thank you for the links. You are making me want to come and work at a forge...

BWW Reviews: PENNY PLAIN Displays Masterful Marionettes
Anyone with an interest in movies or theatre can confess to at least a few "end of the world" selections. Some of us can easily admit to more than a few- weather events, disease outbreak, aliens. They're captivating, in an "oh, I really hope this doesn't happen" kind of way.
In PENNY PLAIN, a marionette performance created and performed by Canadian puppeteer Ronnie Burkett, it certainly seems to be the end of the world right from the beginning. Penny, an elderly blind woman, sits in her boarding house listening to the news, as well as reports from her eccentric boarders and squatters. She struggles to hold on to what she enjoys in the midst of the chaos, all the while searching for companionship "to wait for the end".
As Penny waits and mourns the departure of her beloved dog Jeffrey, the boarders approach the inevitable in a variety of ways: militant fervor, a quest for reconciliation and last attempts to get what they really wanted out of life. There are many bittersweet moments in this, as well as a carousel of dark but smart humor and wit.
The set is a piped platform, lit from all directions in order to create various natural effects. Haunting sound cues and blackouts help to transition scenes, as well as several voiceovers of news stories to illustrate the growingly horrid progression of the outside world. Burkett moves his pieces around as needed, including a few small backdrops and stands so that he can maneuver the puppets at two different heights. To his credit, he makes it look easy. The puppets are incredibly detailed in craftsmanship, and several require two versions, depending on where they appear on the scaffolding.
Burkett's command of the marionettes in his show is unparalleled. Older puppets easily look slumped over. A Chihuahua has legs that spin in a style that would make the Road Runner look lethargic. And all puppets that come in contact with each other do so in a way that appears inherently human. I cannot say enough about how enjoyable it was to watch each of their movements and interactions.
But movement alone doesn't make a character as relatable as many of those found in this show. They have to have voices and intonations that match. Burkett's work in this regard has several highlights: a poodle channeling Rosie Perez, two greedy Southern evangelists and a reclusive but grating old woman whose constant diatribes can make you shudder.
There were some vocal similarities that made it hard to discern between characters. The two young characters sounded almost identical, and perhaps older than they were intended to be. Tuppence, the girl, also seemed to take on Penny's voice for a while once she was introduced, with Penny going significantly lower in register. Some moments felt rushed, perhaps to show the characters nerves, but they didn't need to be. This puppeteer constantly had the audience thoroughly engaged.
If you are a student or fan of all things puppetry, wit and dark humor, PENNY PLAIN is the perfect show for you. When the world has gone mad, as one character explains, it just may be the perfect time for a puppet show.
PENNY PLAIN runs during the Kennedy Center World Stages: International Theater Festival 2014 for two more performances this weekend: Friday, March 21, at 7:30pm, and Saturday, March 22nd at 7:30pm, in the Terrace Theater. Runtime is 120 minutes. The show is intended for mature audiences. Find out more here.

Two New Dragons on the Ninth Season of DRAGON'S DEN
Fresh off their 2014 Canadian Screen Award win for Best Reality Series, DRAGONS' DEN reveals the two risk-taking Canadian business moguls joining the cast this spring.Michael Wekerle and Vikram Vij herald a new era for DRAGONS' DEN, infusing the show with their bravado and daring entrepreneurial spirit.Â
"I am really pleased to be getting the opportunity to work with Michael and Vikram. We are delighted that the two new Dragons are top calibre entrepreneurs and that they are so eager to get inside the den and start making deals," said Tracie Tighe, executive producer, DRAGONS' DEN.
As the reigning rock star of Canadian finance, Michael Wekerle made his fortune investing in tech and media companies. Wekerle's rapid rise to success began at the tender age of 18, where he honed his talents on the Toronto Stock Exchange trading floor before ascending the ranks to become a Bay Street pack leader. Most recently, Wekerle founded and was appointed CEO of the merchant banking firm Difference Capital, where he oversees a vast investment portfolio that runs the gamut from Virgin Gaming to Mark Wahlberg's burger franchise, Wahlburgers. Don't be fooled by the suit though: underneath lies a heavily tattooed single dad to six children, who loves fast cars, rock music and living a lavish lifestyle. Wekerle will bring the sexy back to the Den and use his investing acumen to discover and fund the best start-up businesses in Canada.
Restaurant magnate Vikram Vij has been dominating the West Coast food scene for more than a decade. Born in India, Vij left home at 20 to begin his culinary journey abroad. After a stint in Austria, Vij immigrated to Alberta in 1989 and in 1994 opened his first restaurant, Vij's, in Vancouver, to critical and commercial acclaim. The strict no-reservations policy hasn't deterred fans from lining up, with celebrities such as Martha Stewart, Harrison Ford and the late Pierre Trudeau each taking a turn in the nightly queue. Vij and his wife Meeru have opened two additional restaurants – Rangoli in 2004 and My Shanti in 2014 – as well as a gourmet food truck, and launched a line of pre-packaged curries available in grocery stores across the country. The curries have been so successful that Vij has constructed a 28-thousand–square-foot processing plant to keep up with the growing demand. His branding and entrepreneurial skills were rewarded in 2011 when he won the Ernst and Young Entrepreneur of the Year award. Vij has published two award-winning cookbooks with his wife and has also appeared as a judge on Food Network's Top Chef Canada andChopped Canada, as well as CBC's Recipe to Riches. Hungry for deals, Vij is eager to bring his flair for risk-taking ventures to DRAGONS' DEN.
The announcement comes just before the start of production for the show's ninth season, which kicks-off at the CBC Broadcast Centre in Toronto on March 24.
After dedicating a number of years to the advancement of entrepreneurship and the education of Canadians through their valuable work on CBC's hit series DRAGONS' DEN, Kevin O'Leary and Bruce Croxon will leave the show in pursuit of other endeavours.
"CBC and the entire DRAGONS' DEN team is incredibly proud of the joint success Bruce and Kevin have achieved, and wish them the very best", said Tracie Tighe, executive producer, DRAGONS' DEN.
Find the show online at:
The current season of DRAGONS' DEN airs Wednesdays at 8 p.m. (8:30 NT), with an encore episode on Sundays at 9 p.m. (9:30 NT) on CBC Television.

Doctors at Marshfield Clinic say they've seen hundreds of flu cases this season. They say the outbreak seemed to peak in mid-January and they're slowly starting to see the numbers decrease.
Doctors said there are four different strains of the flu this year and each person's case and symptoms have been a little different. But even as the number of people diagnosed with the flu starts to decrease, doctors said you shouldn't let your guard down.
"Last year we had our biggest flare-up in March, so I would say if people haven't had their shot yet, that's one thing they can do otherwise, lots of hand washing and avoiding people who are coughing," said Dr. Bart Hobson.
Marshfield Clinic Doctors said Wisconsin's flu activity is now considered low and in the past few weeks they said they've started to notice a decline in the number of people coming in with symptoms.
One doctor said he was part of a study that tested patients in our area for the flu. He said at one point, about 55% of those patients tested positive.
He said that number has decreased by more than half.
A big name retailer has its eyes on a spot in Wausau, according to city council members.

Over the last year, I've met dozens of incredible people both personally and professionally, and I've followed up most of these encounters with some sort of thank you — digital, but more often tangible.
I've sent greeting cards and handwritten notes, which are no easy task being that my penmanship has never been even mediocre and the physical act of writing sometimes pains me. Not only have I sent notes to the new folks who have entered my life, but I've also mailed a variety of correspondence to my old friends and colleagues as well to remind them how amazing I believe they are.

You put the lime in the coconut and drink it all up...
Is this crazy? I read Jack Heller's coconut wine recipe and got to thinking. I can't figure out why he used rice water to make the milk but here it goes:
1. Cook some rice in water for a while and drain off a few cups of the liquid. (why does he do this?)
2. Open a coconut, drain the water into a glass, add some rum and ice and drink it.http://www.gotmead.com/forum/images/smilies/blob8.gif
3. Split the coconut and bake at 150F for 20-30 minutes to soften it up.
4. Remove coconut "meat" and shred. Add 1 cup of the hot rice water and soak/mix then strain off the milk to a jar.
5. Add another cup of the hot rice water and soak/mix then strain off the milk to a jar.
6. Set jar aside in fridge until secondary.
7. Take 1/2 of the coconut mash and toast it in oven. Add the toasted and raw coconut to the primary.
8. Add honey, water and zest of 3 limes.
9. Ferment for a week or so, rack to secondary and add coconut milk, lime zest and lime juice.
10. Adjust lime with each racking.
Am I nuts? Is the milk to oily to even consider this?
Doctor is there nothing I can take? I said doctor, to relieve this belly ache....
I'm definitely not a mead expert by any means but I would think that the high fat content in coconut wouldn't be very desirable when making any type of fermented beverage. Although I love the idea of having some coconut flavour in mead.
You might be able to do it. I think Jack Keller has a coconut recipe on his site, i think I saw one somewhere. I have made a coconut rum by cutting a hole in a coconut, draining the juice, filling it with rum, and plugging with a cork. You have to wait a couple of monthe but it is good.
Yea, I saw Jack's coconut wine recipe. Can't figure out why he used the water from cooked rice to make coconut milk?
You might have some luck using fresh, shredded coconut meat. I'd be concerned about the oil content though, you may get a sort of scum on the surface. You could also rack onto pressed coconut; you'd still have the problem with oil content, but you might get better coconut flavour. Try a 1 gallon batch; rack onto a can of pressed coconut & see what happens. I'd be very curious to see how that turns out. Regards, GF.
EDIT: You might be able to remove the oil/scum by filtering thru paper, like a Mr. Coffee paper filter, maybe.
Maybe it would hurt the flavor but you could always cool your coconut milk and remove the fat off of the top.
random link to check, there is more info at the bottom of the page
I don't realy like the idea of it but maybe you can find a quality extract to use for the flavor.
I really want this to work; it sounds good. When I lived in the Carribean they had lots of fermented coconut beverages (I guess fermented). They were all really good and really scary looking. The coconut oil never blends in the stuff they make but they include it anyways, looks bad, tastes good.

Well I finally completed Insanity today! I'm pretty hyped and I'm glad that my friends inspired me to take this challenge! This workout, as opposed to P90X, is a different beast entirely. Its cardio basesd, nd uses interval training to push your body to the limits. I really felt like I was at the combine! Combined with a great diet, I've seen great results, lost weight, lost body fat, and feel excellent! I'll detail my stats when I do the normal workout log on Monday.
NO time to dwell on the accomplishment though. It's on to the next one! Earlier, I spoke about a P90X-Insanity hybrid program that I was eager to try. Sunday I begin. For anyone who's done P90x or Insanity, this program doesn't look like it's for the faint of heart, but I'm up to the challenge! Check out the PDF of the workout here => P90X Insanely Reloaded Plus Final to follow along. Now as you can see, it follows the P90X 3 month format. This looks tough enough, but I'm going to turn it up a few notches. Here are the modifications I'm going to make
No Days Off
That's right. No. Off. Days! Usually I'd take my off day to rest up, but I do not want to be idle. I want to be doing some type of intense workout 7 days a week to continuously challenge my body to be its best. Then again, I don't want to do the X-Stretch on those days either, which brings me to my next point…
The Off Day Schedule:
Instead of doing X-Stretch, in Phase 1 i'm going to do Max interval Sports Training. It's my favorite exercise, burns calories, and gives me a great balance of endurance and cardio. A great "off day exercise". Im going to assess my body composition and progress after phase 1. I might keep doing that or switch in Phase 2.
In phase 2, I'm thinking about bringing back the Legs/Back exercise and mix that with Max Interval Training. Upon further review, I'll do Legs/Back to give more weight training emphasis on Phase 2.
Phase3 Ill alternate weeks with Max Sports and Legs/Back. Shiiiit I'm gonna be wasted!
Alternate Insane Abs and Cardio Abs
The insane ab exercise is a fat burner and torture on the core. I like cardio abs as well. Since we're doing Ab Ripper X too, I think a healthy rotation will keep my core guessing, and get it ripped!
Going to the gym
Im going to goto the gym to do most of the P90X exercises. I like my gym and want to have mroe variety of weights to use. Time to return!
So there are my tweaks and my goal is in sight. Can't wait for the future. Whos joining me?!

5 Bites: Korean Food On Temescal's 'Kimchi Row'
As a Korean-American foodie who resides in West Oakland, I'm lucky that there's a slew of fine eateries not too far from our home all along Telegraph Avenue in Temescal.
When it's time to stock up the kitchen, where do you turn? Check out these staple websites for cooking gadgets and tools.
Home Baked Comfort, Williams-Sonoma's latest baking book, promises to get you baking with over a hundred recipes for delectable, homemade treats.
While the gamut of classic recipes seem to have made the cut — from dishes like pot roast (recipe included), Coq au Vin, and Boston Baked Beans –- Mexican, Spanish, Indian and Asian foods are also spattered throughout. And I think this is exactly why I love this book so much.
Family Meals: Creating Traditions in the Kitchen author and chef Maria Helm Sinskey, her husband (acclaimed organic winemakerRobert Sinskey) and their two girls are adorable, the styling is charming, the recipes look both tasty and accessible, and alright, I'll admit it: by page 50, I was envious (those chickens! that lavender! those sweet dirty carrots!), and by page 260, I was downright suspicious.
Local chef and blogger Jennifer Carden wrote the cookbook The Toddler Café for picky kids, but truth be told, many of the recipes would satisfy picky adults. A recipe for Pumpkin Pockets isn't so far from a very sophisticated Ravioli di Zucca.

The First Oncology Massage Healing Summit
By Tracy Walton, LMT, MS
In May, I was honored to attend the first gathering of oncology massage therapists in North America. There were about 160 massage therapists and about 20 presenters. It might sound lofty to say this event was historic, but it was a first.This meeting of the minds and hands was a conference in the making for several years. And for years, therapists have been longing for such an opportunity to work with people with cancer.
The conference, "Oncology Massage Healing Summit," was held at Mercy College of Northwest Ohio in Toledo. Gayle MacDonald and Tina Ferner dreamt up the notion of a conference in this area. Gayle is the author of Medicine Hands: Massage Therapy for People with Cancer, now in its second edition, and Massage for the Hospital Patient and Medically Frail Client. Tina coordinates the Integrative Therapy Department at St. Vincent Mercy Medical Center in Toledo.
Typically, a conference is planned by an association that charges a committee with the details, and a professional conference organizer to implement them. But there has been no such association. In this case, two people with a cheering section of many more of us carried out all of that with the devoted implementation of the Mercy College Department of Continuing Professional Education. The fact that it came off seamlessly is a wonder and a testament to the skill and foresight of the conference planners.
Gayle MacDonald began the conference with a keynote, "Holy Toledo and the Sisters of Mercy: the Sacredness of the Work We Do." Because the order of the Sisters of Mercy was the founder and foundation of Mercy Hospital, she made references to several spiritual traditions which have, as an outgrowth, a compassion embodied in ministry to the sick, and often touch is part of that healing ministry. Gayle went on to describe the movement of oncology massage, how far it has grown beyond the old, unfounded worry that massage might spread cancer, and its projection into its own future.
Indeed, the future was clearly in evidence over the weekend. Presentations covered a range of topics: approaches to Eastern medicine, finding evidence on massage and cancer on the Web, essential oils for emotional and spiritual healing, and the sharing of therapists' stories. There were many other fascinating sessions, but space limits their mention here.
Presenters came from such far-flung places as Alaska, Brazil, Toronto, New York, Colorado and Montreal. I attended several excellent presentations. Jamie Elswick spoke and demonstrated work on healing the scars of cancer surgery. Charlotte Versagi demonstrated lymphatic drainage for the person with cancer and Isabel Adkins presented on the trauma of cancer and treatments. Each of these presentations deepened my understanding of massage for people with cancer, as well as my belief in the power of the work.
But, as it often is with conferences, conversations around the edges of the formal presentations are as bountiful as the presentations themselves. In what seemed like hundreds of conversations packed into two short days, I heard therapists networking about hospital programs, funding, research, community service and education. (For some sense of the richness of the program, the proceedings and some of the education sessions, see www.mercycollege.edu/oncology_conf.php.)
At dinner one night, I sat at a table with seven other therapists. Several of us were massage researchers, or interested in the research of massage. The question, "What is the healing ingredient in massage therapy?" came up. One therapist said it was that he covered the whole body in his sessions; that the client was helped to feel whole and perfect and attended to in all of their wholeness by his whole-body approach. Another therapist said she felt it was "our humanity" that made massage therapy so healing for people. Another said, simply, "our compassion."
In one of the most important outcomes of the conference, a groundswell of support for an oncology massage therapy association solidified into some infrastructure for the association. When it develops into a Web presence and entity, I will post its Web site on my own at www.tracywalton.com. And when a second conference is scheduled, I'll post that, too!
Just last week, I received a message on my machine from someone looking for a massage therapist for a friend with cancer. Her friend had sought massage, but had been turned away by a therapist who told her it could spread her cancer. I am still surprised to hear this old myth, and I did what I could to help in this situation. But I've had many such phone calls over the years. They stand in sharp contrast to the growing support for caring, careful massage for people with cancer.
It was a joy being at a conference where that concern was a phantom of the past. It was a joy to see how far the work has come. Finally, it was a joy to see the energy of those around me engaged, not only in moving on from that old fear, but moving forward with seven-league boots in the profession's natural next steps. Our compassion, our humanity, our whole-body approach to healing - all of these should serve us well.

20-Minute "Power" Content Sessions Include PHX Social Media #Fails Panel, The Not-So-Fine Line of Social Media & Copyright Infringement, and Advertising & Social Media Today
The fourth annual Social Media Day Phoenix is quickly approaching, generating excitement from social media enthusiasts across the Valley. The celebration, which is scheduled to take place June 28th from 6 to 10 pm at the Renaissance Phoenix Downtown Hotel, recently released its event schedule, announcing this year's content sessions and speakers.
Attendees will begin the evening by participating in three, 20-minute programs focused on various aspects of social media and marketing.
Laura Rogal, an attorney with Jaburg Wilk Attorneys at Law, will present the first seminar: "The Not-So-Fine Line of Social Media & Copyright Infringement." In this presentation, Rogal will discuss the potential legal issues, including copyright, trademark and defamation, associated with using content from public websites on one's social platforms. She will share quick tips of what you need to know now to ensure you are compliant.
Next, Kevin Spidel, director of agency services at Voice Media Group, will present on "Advertising & Social Media Today," sharing insight into gaining the most traction on today's "pay for play" social media outlets.
The final presentation will feature a panel of speakers discussing "Social Media #Fails," a discussion about the potential pitfalls and positives of using social media to market your business and yourself. The panel will include Allison Michels of Yammer/Microsoft, MoniQue Shaldjian of QtheBrand, and Jim Simmons with CDS Insurance Agency.
Following the content sessions, participants will experience an evening of networking, with cool drinks, light eats and prizes from notable sponsors. Everyone will wear a color-coded sticker on their nametag to divide them into categories, including networking, social media users and fans, companies that utilize social media, and social media managers. The stickers will help like-minded attendees network more efficiently in the short period of time.
This year, the celebration is being hosted and managed by MoniQue Shaldjian, owner of QtheBrand, a Phoenix-based digital marketing company specializing in social media, SEO, web development and branding. Shaldjian has refocused this year's event, taking comments from past celebrations and putting a fresh spin on the content portion. The programming will be more condensed and focused on meaningful information. Attendees will get to engage in more conversations about the future of social media, new methodologies and what mistakes to avoid.
Social Media Day was created by social media giant Mashable in 2010 to celebrate the digital revolution, and has grown tremendously since its inception. Today, Social Media Day (#SMDay) has transformed into a worldwide celebration that is recognized by more than 100 countries, six continents and 17 U.S. cities.

View From the Tracks: The Light Rail Plays
Rising Youth Theatre, a new theatre company that creates socially relevant original plays with youth will present the world premiere of View from the Tracks: The Light Rail Plays on June 6, 7, and 8, 2014 on the Valley Metro Rail system. Eight short plays will be performed on the trains and at the stations from Roosevelt/Central Ave. to Central Ave./Camelback, and explore the idea of "how Phoenix moves from place to place." Performances will happen throughout the evening each night, from 6:00 – 8:00pm.
The site-specific project pairs young people and adults together, one-on-one to create the performance pieces, which utilize a wide variety of style, thematic content, and structure.
Eight adult performers: Liliana Gomez, Cody Goulder, Anthony Kelley, Kim Manning, Elizabeth Polen, Julie Rada, Tomas Stanton, and Charlie Steak are paired with eight youth perfomers: Clare Emmert, Monica Essig-Aberg, Za'Nea Jackson, Bridget Marlowe, Xavier Ramirez, Stephanie Santa Cruz, Alex Tuchi, and Colt Watkiss to develop the plays. Professional designers Samantha Bostwick, Anastasia Schneider and Joey Trahan work alongside youth designers Victoria Arora, Maria Ramirez and James Tanner to create the aesthetic of the plays in an alternative performance environment. Even the stage management follows the youth/adult pairing model, with stage manager Rachel Solis working alongside youth stage manager Lyric Jackson.
Rising Youth Theatre received funding for this project from the Arizona Commission on the Arts as part of the Art Tank funding program. The project received $10,000 (the highest level of funding) at the Art Tank West event.
RYT has worked in close partnership with Valley Metro to develop the project, and looks forward to exploring what theatre on light rail can look like in Phoenix.
If you would like to reserve a "ticket" to View from the Tracks: The Light Rail Plays, you can reserve your spot and a free transit pass at lightrailplays.eventbrite.com (limited availability). You can also attend the show without pre-registering, enjoying any combination of the eight different plays.

New Public-Private Partnership Will Make Long-Acting Contraceptive Method More Affordable for Millions
Thanks to a new initiative led by the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, Bayer HealthCare AG, and several other global health leaders, 27 million women will soon have greater access to a long-acting and reversible contraceptive method called Jadelle. The partnership, led by several leaders who attended the London Summit on Family Planning, takes the reproductive health community one step closer to the commitment made at the summit—to provide 120 million women with access to contraceptives by 2020.
"This is a commendable development in our effort toward making reproductive health services affordable and accessible to all."Family planning programs that already exist, included those supported by USAID, will be the first to provide Jadelle at a significant price reduction in more than 50 of the world's poorest countries, including those deemed least likely to meet their Millennium Development Goals on maternal and child health by 2015.
Pathfinder International applauds this new partnership and highly anticipates its positive impact on reproductive health care efforts worldwide.
"More than 222 million women worldwide lack access to the contraceptives they need to plan a healthy future for themselves and their families. This is a commendable development in our effort toward making reproductive health services affordable and accessible to all," said Pathfinder President and CEO Purnima Mane. "I am confident that this step will encourage others to come forward with bold and concrete steps to fulfill their commitments made at the London Summit."
Focus Area: Contraception & Family Planning

- 21 And they compel one Simon a Cyrenian, who passed by, coming out of the country, the father of Alexander and Rufus, to bear his cross. 22 And they bring him unto the place Golgotha, which is, being interpreted, The place of a skull.
- 23 And they gave him to drink wine mingled with myrrh: but he received it not. 24 And when they had crucified him, they parted his garments, casting lots upon them, what every man should take.
- 25 And it was the third hour, and they crucified him. 26 And the superscription of his accusation was written over, THE KING OF THE JEWS.
- 27 And with him they crucify two thieves; the one on his right hand, and the other on his left. 28 And the scripture was fulfilled, which saith, And he was numbered with the transgressors.
- 29 And they that passed by railed on him, wagging their heads, and saying, Ah, thou that destroyest the temple, and buildest it in three days, 30 Save thyself, and come down from the cross.
- 31 Likewise also the chief priests mocking said among themselves with the scribes, He saved others; himself he cannot save. 32 Let Christ the King of Israel descend now from the cross, that we may see and believe. And they that were crucified with him reviled him.
- Compare: Matthew 27:32-56; Luke 23:26-49; John 19:17-30
Jesus is Crucified
Crucifixion may be one of the most horrible methods of execution ever invented. A person is nailed to a cross or stake and hangs there until their own weight suffocates them. The horrors of crucifixion are, however, glossed over by Mark in favor of the deeper theological meanings behind these events.
The reference to Alexander and Rufus may have been an effort to name people known to Marks community and thereby vouchsafe the accuracy of Marks story. There is, however, no historical basis for bystanders carrying the cross-beam for a condemned prisoner like this, so today its actually an sign that Marks story isnt historical. The actions of Simon the Cyrenian are clearly fiction. The words Mark uses here in Greek (are ton stauron autou) are same used earlier by Jesus when informing his disciples that they would have to carry their own crosses (arato ton stauron autou).
Simons reason for being here is to depict what it is like to actually bear the cross for Jesus, a signal to Marks community that carrying the cross isnt always to be taken in a figurative sense. For Christian communities being persecuted by the Romans, carrying a cross might be something they quite literally have to do. The irony here is that just before Jesus earlier words, Jesus was rebuked by Peter, the same disciple who goes on to deny Jesus rather than deny himself as Jesus instructed. Neither Peter nor any of the other disciples are here carrying Jesus cross for him that task is left to a complete stranger.
Jesus execution is carried out beyond the walls of Jerusalem, just like traditional Jewish sin offerings are taken outside the camp (Leviticus 16:27). The Aramaic term for skull, gulgulta, may have referred to either the shape of the placed or its use as a spot for executions. The traditional term Calvary comes from the Latin for skull, calvaria. Jesus is offered a drugged drink, an allusion to Proverbs 31:6-7. The soldiers cast lots for Jesus clothing, an allusion to Psalms 22:18.
Above Jesus they place a plaque describing the charges for which Jesus was being executed: claiming to be King of the Jews. This once again points to the fact that Jesus execution would have been an official Roman matter, based upon political activity considered a threat to the state.
Traditional Christian exegesis places a great deal of importance on the words of the high priests who come to mock Jesus. According to them, he has saved others but now cant save himself but for Christians, it is precisely because Jesus stays on the cross that he is able to save both himself and others.
Just one problem: if the high priests know that he saved others, then they know that he has worked wondrous miracles in the past. If they know about his powers, then there is no reason for them to demand that he descend from the cross in order for them to believe. This cannot, then, be considered anything other than an invention of Mark. Aside from making important theological points, it also continues the pattern of giving his audience reasons to blame the Jews rather than the Romans for Jesus death.

Microsoft plans patches for IE10, Windows 8 next week
Will fix first bugs in company's newest browser, again address Windows 8 and Windows RT flaws
Computerworld - Microsoft today announced it will deliver seven security updates next week to patch 11 vulnerabilities, including the first that apply to Internet Explorer 10 (IE10), the company's newest browser.
As it did last month, Microsoft will also patch Windows 8, Windows RT and Windows Server 2012, its new desktop, tablet and server operating systems.
Five of the seven updates will be marked as "critical," Microsoft's highest threat ranking, while the remaining pair will be labeled "important," the Redmond, Wash. developer said in an advance warning published today.
Andrew Storms, director of security operations at nCircle Security, put the IE update atop his tentative to-do list. Others did, too, including Paul Henry, a researcher with Arizona-based Lumension.
In an email Thursday, Henry said that the bugs in IE9 and IE10 -- the only versions directly affected -- were "use-after-free" memory management vulnerabilities.
By the IE update's critical label, it's likely that the bug(s) can be exploited by hackers using "drive-by" attacks, those that execute as soon as an unsuspecting user surfs to a malicious or compromised website.
Although IE9 and IE10 -- the latter is the latest in Microsoft's browser line and so far has shipped in final form only for Windows 8, Windows RT and Server 2012 -- will be patched, other still-supported editions will get fixes as well.
"Microsoft is making 'defense-in-depth' changes to the other browsers," said Storms of IE6, IE7 and IE8.
Microsoft has infrequently issued code changes meant to beef up security of a product even though it's not technically vulnerable to attack.
"The general idea is that the vulnerability is on a new platform, and that during its due diligence, Microsoft found the same [flawed] code in older platforms," said Storms. "But because they couldn't actually execute the vulnerability on those [older versions], they're making changes just in case something in the future is found that can exploit the bug."
This will be the second month running that Microsoft patches IE: In November, it quashed three critical bugs in IE9. At the time, Storms argued that Microsoft had probably also found one or more of those flaws in IE10, but had managed to fix them before it shipped the browser on Oct. 26.
Other updates will tackle one or more critical vulnerabilities in Windows -- including one applicable to Windows 8 and Windows RT; at least one critical bug in Word 2003, 2007 and 2010 on Windows; and some critical flaws in Exchange 2007 and 2010.
That last caught Storms' eye.
"Exchange is one of the most highly-critical business applications, and it's not something you want to shut down, especially in December," Storms said.
But he wasn't ready to tell companies to pass on the Exchange update. "They may well release some easily-performed mitigations next week," Storms said, referring to Microsoft's habit of offering work-arounds to keep software secure until a patch can be applied. "We'll have to wait and see. This one may have the typical risk-reward equation.... Is it worth the risk to patch or better to leave it alone?"
If companies apply the Exchange update and break their mail systems, especially during a very busy time of the year for retailers, it could be chaos.
Henry, who regularly talks with Microsoft after they've issued their advance notification, said that the Exchange update will address new vulnerabilities in the Outside In code libraries that Microsoft licenses from Oracle.
Exchange uses the libraries to display file attachments in a browser rather than to open them in a locally-stored application, like Microsoft Word. In the past, Outside In bugs have resided within the Exchange code base that parses those attachments.
Oracle patched two low-threat Outside In bugs in a massive Oct. 16 security update.
If Microsoft ships all seven of the planned updates -- occasionally it holds one back at the last minute -- the company will have issued 83 security bulletins in 2012, a 17% drop from 2011's 100 updates, said Storms.
The individual patch count, however, will slip just 5%, with 196 in 2012 compared to 206 the year before.
Microsoft will release the seven updates at approximately 1 p.m. ET on Dec. 11.

Investigator: Jennifer S. Barber
For this project, funded by the W. T. Grant Distinguished Fellows Program, Jennifer Barber's goal is to increase the quality of her research on teen pregnancy, and to increase the value of that research for programs attempting to prevent teen pregnancy. Thus, the focus of the proposed fellowship is on the gap between research and practice. As part of this project, Barber spends time at two youth service organizations: a teen pregnancy prevention center in Detroit, and Planned Parenthood of Mid and South Michigan. Specifically, Barber attends a variety of activities at each host site, including staff meetings, training meetings, and organizational meetings to design and implement onsite activities, and regular meetings that monitor the effectiveness of the programs. In addition, at the teen pregnancy prevention center, she participates as a facilitator in the three programs run by the center. And, at Planned Parenthood, she makes direct observations of a clinician providing health, contraceptive, and abortion services.

Mile-Long Locks Materialize at Moschino-------
Dreadlocks are nothing new—they were worn by ancient civilizations in Africa and Asia, and the style is closely tied (if not intrinsic) to the Rastafarian movement. Celebrities (such as Lady Gaga and Lauryn Hill) and designers even commandeered the look for the red carpet and the runway. Hairstylist Sam McKnight created two versions for Chanel: one in 2012 and the other for Fall 2014. And only hours ago Jeremy Scott sent his own towering iteration down Moschino's menswear catwalk. Models like Lindsey Wixson, Leomie Anderson, and Soo Joo Park sported piled-up twists and belly-button-grazing braids by pro Paul Hanlon, along with bikinis emblazoned with the world's flags and soda-pop-themed sweatshirts. We like to think of the hair at Scott's show much like his designs: tradition turned on its head.
Top Models Teach the ABC's of Beauty-------
Today marks the beginning of i-D's first online beauty week, and here to help celebrate are twenty-six of the catwalk's current supers—ranging from Lindsey Wixson to Binx Walton. These top models run through the ABC's according to the fashion glossy in this video directed by Daniel Sannwald and newly appointed beauty editor and makeup artist, Isamaya Ffrench. Talk about hot for teacher…
Daddy's Girl: Lindsey Wixson's Secret Style Source-------
My dad has done a lot for me over the years. The one thing he hasn't gotten to: my hair. The man can make a bed (a skill he learned in the army) and precisely iron a pair of pants (a chore relegated to him by my mother), but braid or wield a curling iron? Forget it. (Let it be noted that my mom really can't, either—she paid my best friend in first grade $1 a week to put my shoulder-length strands in some semblance of a ponytail.) Lindsey Wixson's father, however, has skills. She posted this photo on Instagram with the caption, "Hair styling by my dad." Not bad, old man, not bad—looks like you've got the nonchalant trend down pat.
Lindsey Wixson Is One Tough Mudder-------
Borrowing a page from Vivienne Westwood's Spring 2014 beauty book (where makeup artist Val Garland flicked models with black, brown, and metallic paint to re-create the look of splashed mud), Lindsey Wixson and photographer beau Joachim Johnson opted to get down and dirty in New Mexico. Mother nature—in this case, at least—makes the best maquillage.
Chanel Is Having a Yabadabadoo Time For Spring; You've Come A Long Way, Baby (Doll); And More-------
Lindsey Wixson looks a lot like Pebbles Flinstone in Chanel's latest ads with her burnt orange strands, head-topping ponytail, and extra-large pearls reminiscent of the ones Wilma made her signature. When it comes to hair accessories, however, the dinosaur bone has been replaced with a more petite black bow. [Refinery29]
We remember the days when American Girl dolls wore a modest bonnet (Kirsten Larson, we're looking at you) and schoolgirl braids (Molly McIntire, anyone?). The latest addition to the collection, Isabelle Palmer, goes to a school for the arts and has pink ombré hair. The toy is also available with piercings. We imagine a pint-sized jar of Manic Panic isn't too far off. [Huffington Post]
While we don't know who debuted it first exactly—the doll or Alexa Chung—the Brit style star posted a photo on Twitter touting her new purple tips courtesy of L'Oréal Professionnel.
Designed to be added to a traditional cleanser for "extra exfoliating" results, Previse Skincare is bringing EE MarineGranules, a botanical-based marine mousse, to market in March. Shopping for beauty products is beginning to feel like an episode of Sesame Street. [WWD]
Kate Moss celebrates her 40th birthday this month and in celebration, Paris Première (a French television channel) is airing a documentary—Looking For Kate—on January 12th that examines her rise to fame. If only the Couture collections coincided…we'll just have to wait for the film to appear on YouTube with the rest of the world. [Marie Claire UK]

At the site, John & Sarah asked if we wanted to share a chalet, so we did (& were glad as in the early hours it rained cats &
