"Nature fascinated me as a kid. At first I was intrigued by animals, then photography gave me another way to relate to the natural world.
"I define myself as a photographer with lots of patience. That's good. While animals are an artistic subject, they move! I spend hours getting to know animals. Then I trust my own animal instincts — and hope for good luck.
"When I photograph landscapes, I spend more time looking than shooting. I visit the same area over and over until there's interesting weather and magical light." A master at depicting dramatic landscapes and fascinating fauna, José has created images for many Argentine field guides and national parks brochures.

Thank you Jason.

INSPIRATION | Reviewer: Alex | 11/11/08
OK, I saw this song on a commercial and thought, wow, what a great song. There's no harsh death growls or hardcore heavy guitar riffs that are backed up by a sick and twisted solo that could inspire destruction, no, this song is just so bright and sunshiny. I'm more into metal and rap but, this, this is something else. Haha... cuz it is. Its a whole different genre, not sure what but I like it.
Wow | Reviewer: Abc | 11/10/08
This is the kind of song that just screams happiness. You know when you're so full of joy and you just want to smile for no reason, this songs compliments those feelings. I am glad that Jason Mraz wrote this song; he has brought a smile to every single person who listens to it and it's a great attribute. Smile, Be happy, Laugh, it's about time for something good to happen.

truth windows: strawbale construction
A Truth Window (or truth wall) is an opening in a wall surface, created to reveal the layers or components within the wall. In an eco built strawbale house, a truth window is often used to show that the walls are actually made from straw bales. A small section of a wall is left unplastered on the interior, and a frame is used to create a window which shows only straw, which makes up the inside of the wall.
Many designs exist for truth windows, they have become quite a novelty for sustainably built homes. Glass may be placed over the window, or an openable wooden panel, or it may be a simple framed opening.
More Truth Windows at this Flickr search.

Cool idea . . . Most that build an Eco-friendly home are going to have (like minded) friends over interested in seeing and talking about what went into the making of their home.

Investing.com - The dollar fell to more than two-week lows against the yen on Friday after data showed that the U.S. economy added far fewer than expected jobs in December.
USD/JPY fell to lows of 103.95, the weakest level since December 23 and was last down 0.65% to 104.17.
The pair is likely to find support at 103.60 and resistance at 105.05, Thursday's high.
The drop in the dollar came after the Labor Department said the U.S. economy added 74,000 jobs in January, the smallest increase since January 2011 and well below expectations for 196,000 new jobs.
The unemployment rate fell to a five year low of 6.7% from 7% in November, but this was due in part to people dropping out of the labor force. The labor participation rate fell to an almost 35-year low of 62.8%.
Inclement weather in December contributed to the slowdown in hiring, as the construction sector cut 16,000 jobs, the biggest drop in the industry in 20 months.
The unexpectedly weak data tempered expectations that the Federal Reserve would cut its stimulus program again this month. The Fed cited a stronger labor market in its decision to cut its asset purchase program by USD10 billion in December, reducing it to USD75 billion-a-month.
Elsewhere, the CFTC Commitments of Traders report for the week ending January 7 showed that the net short yen position of 129,000 contracts was the smallest since late November, down from 135,000 in the previous week.
In the week ahead, investors will be closely watching U.S. data on retail sales, inflation and consumer sentiment, as well as speeches by two Federal Reserve officials on Tuesday.
Ahead of the coming week, Investing.com has compiled a list of these and other significant events likely to affect the markets. The guide skips Monday, as there are no relevant events on this day.
Tuesday, January 14
Japan is to produce data on the current account.
The U.S. is to produce data on retail sales, the government measure of consumer spending, which accounts for the majority of overall economic activity. The nation is also to release data on import prices and business inventories.
Also Tuesday, Federal Reserve Bank of Philadelphia President Charles Plosser and Dallas Fed President Richard Fisher are to speak.
Wednesday, January 15
The U.S. is to release data on producer price inflation and a report on manufacturing activity in the New York region.
Thursday, January 16
Japan is to release data on core machinery orders and tertiary industry activity.
The U.S. is to publish reports on consumer price inflation and initial jobless claims, in addition to data on manufacturing activity in Philadelphia. Meanwhile, Federal Reserve Chairman Ben Bernanke is to speak at an event in Washington.
Friday, January 17
The U.S. is to wrap up the week with the closely watched preliminary reading of the University of Michigan consumer sentiment index. The U.S. is also to release data on building permits, housing starts and industrial production.

Geo-Graphics: Benchmarking the Fed's Dual-Mandate Performance
A version of this post originally appeared on Geo-Graphics, a Council on Foreign Relations blog by the Maurice R. Greenberg Center for Geoeconomic Studies.
The Fed has a dual mandate to pursue price stability and maximum employment. How should these be defined? In January, the Fed set itself a long-run inflation target of 2%, while in June the midpoint of Fed board members' and Reserve Bank presidents' long-run unemployment predictions was 5.6%. Our figure above shows actual inflation and unemployment performance relative to these targets going back to 2002. What stands out is the divergence that opens up, particularly on the unemployment front, after Lehman Brothers failed in September 2008. The sum of the deviations reached its peak in July 2009, as shown in the small box in the upper left of the figure. Though it has since declined fairly steadily, it is still well above zero – zero being a benchmark for fulfilling the combined mandate. This suggests that the Fed's doves should continue to hold the upper hand.

Ok so I have a 2 1/2 year old and we always used Target diapers for her. We swear by them and had great luck with them. Now we have another on the way and my maternity leave will be 100% unpaid. So I'm trying to do some stocking up before the baby is here. I have found a great deal on Luvs diapers but have no experience with them. Can anyone give me a review good or bad on Luvs? TIA
I've always heard people compare Luvs with Target brand, and they were definitely similar in my experience. The main difference is that Luvs have a baby powder smell which I didn't like.
I used Luvs, Target, local grocery brands, pampers, and Huggies Little Swaddler/Little Movers - Huggies have always been my favorite, plus they had a rewards program going.
Pampers are actually my least favorite, for some reason. Then Luvs because of the smell.
I swore by luvs with my daughter. They worked the best for her. I used pampers swaddlers when she was a newborn but thats because the hospital sent them home with us. They worked well for the time being but luvs is the brand my mom used for my sister (in 1994!) and I used them almost 100% of the time. If we weren't able to afford them at the time we used parent's choice (walmart brand) and those were a toss up. sometimes you could get a good pack, other times she would soak right through them. Huggies NEVER worked well for her. they never fit her right so she always leaked and they were just too expensive for us. I'd say buy a pack (or a few) of each and see which one works the best. Cloth diapers really seem like the way to go as far as absorbency and cost from what I have researched but they don't seem like they would be practical for us. I have a hard enough time keeping up on laundry as it is... Good Luck!

Montréal, Thursday, January 29, 2009 —
We are pleased to announce that the inaugural edition of our Série Hommage (tribute series) has taken home the Conseil Québécois's Opus prize for "Musical Event of the Year." The tribute series was dedicated to legendary composer Claude Vivier. Our win in this category—one of the most prestigious—signals mission accomplished for the SMCQ's Série Hommage, and its goal of, "creating a real artistic convergence around a single composer to have him recognized as a national treasure." (Follow this link to the Vivier Série Hommage)
Our congratulations go out to Nicolas Gilbert, member of the SMCQ's artistic committee, who was doubly honoured during the Opus prize ceremonies. This young composer was awarded prizes in both the "Composer of the Year" and "Premiere of the Year" categories, the latter for his Circuits Parallèles, performed by the Ensemble de la SMCQ last April.
Congratulations are also extended to Noémie Pascal, executive assistant and communications supervisor for the SMCQ, who garnered the prize for "Article of the Year" for a text entitled, "Musiques au Tournant du XXIe Siècle: L'Unité dans la Diversité," which appeared in Musiques, une Encyclopédie pour le XXIe Siècle, Vol. 5: L'Unité dans la Musique, edited by Jean-Jacques Nattiez (Arles, Actes Sud/Cité de la musique).
— 30 —
The SMCQ has been moving in step with the lively rhythms of new music for almost fifty years. With its regular concert season, its Série hommage (Homage Series), an international festival, and a young listener's programme, the society has served both as a platform for today's composers and as a window on creative works for everyone.

By Robin Jedlicka - bio | emailDecember 29, 2008
VALDOSTA, GA (WALB) - Sheriff's investigators are looking into a disturbing case of animal cruelty in Brooks County. One cat is dead and two others seriously injured after they were burned with firecrackers.
It happened at a mobile home park off Soaring Heights Drive. Three cats who lived nearby were badly burned when a group of people attached firecrackers to each of them. They then lit the fireworks. Each cat was severely injured.
"Of the three cats involved in the incident the first has been transferred down to the University of Florida where it's being looked after. The second is here at the Baytree Animal Hospital in Valdosta. The third cat had to be euthanized," said Dr. Amanda Hall, Veterinarian.
Blackie was brought into Baytree Animal Hospital by her owner on Saturday when she finally returned home. Veterinarians say she is lucky to be alive.
"She is stable. She's going to need some surgery to repair her skin that's been burned, but she's going to be fine. Her feet have been burned, She's missing a good portion of her ears, but she's going to be fine," said Dr. Hall.
Little Jim, who lived in the same home as Blackie, is in serious condition at the University of Florida.
"It looks like the kitty that's at the University of Florida, that all of his health care bills are going to be in the range of ten to fifteen-thousand dollars," said Dr. Hall. "St. Francis has made a contribution of about five-thousand of that at this point. But before it's all said and one, with all the multiple skin graphs that he's gonna need, it's going to be tremendous and I don't know if the funds are gonna be available and we may end up putting him to sleep."
The Brooks County Sheriffs Office is investigating the attack. Anyone with information regarding who is responsible for the cats' injuries should contact them.
"This is absolutely the worst cruelty case that I've ever seen."
While Blackie is expected to recover, Little Jim's recovery remains in the hands of donors. Veterinarians have had to put him into a coma just to control the pain.
St. Francis Ministries is an animal welfare group that helps with animal cruelty cases.
If you'd like to make a donation to help cover Little Jim's medical bills, you can reach St. Francis at 229-794-8146.

A Eurocopter AS350B2 registered to Sundance Helicopters crashed late yesterday afternoon during a twilight flight near Nevada's Hoover Dam, killing all five aboard. The remote location of the crash, 30 miles from Las Vegas, prompted recovery workers to delay efforts until today. The NTSB has sent a 12-person go-team to investigate.
The NTSB excused American Airlines from further participation in the investigation of a December 29, 2010 runway overrun of one of its Boeing 757s in Jackson Hole, Wyo., after the airline accessed flight data recorder (FDR) data before transporting it to Safety Board labs in Washington, D.C.
The pilots of the UPS Boeing 747-400 cargo airplane that crashed on September 3 reported smoke in the cockpit as they tried to return to Dubai International Airport, according to a preliminary report issued by the UAE General Civil Aviation Authority (GCAA) on Sunday.
Brazilian search teams found more wreckage from Air France Flight 447 yesterday and today as evidence mounted that the Airbus A330 likely broke apart above the ocean while flying through a violent storm.
DNA analysis of material taken from the pilot-side windscreen of a Sikorsky
S-76C++ helicopter that crashed January 4 near Morgan City, La., suggests that
the accident might have been caused by a bird strike.
The president of a helicopter supply company whose actions were determined by the NTSB to be a contributing factor in the January 2006 crash of a Eurocopter AS 350D has claimed that the Safety Board left out pertinent information in the probable cause report. Furthermore, the NTSB acknowledges that it never investigated the complete ownership history of the engine.
From a humanitarian perspective, regional air transport suffered perhaps its most destructive 24-hour stretch in history last month. Three separate fatal accidents, all unrelated but for the category of aircraft they involved, shook the industry at a time it could least afford the negative reaction. Once rescuers finished counting, the death toll totaled 72 in Turkey, 46 in Peru and 21 in the U.S.
CESSNA 501, ASHWAUBENON, WIS., APRIL 2, 2001–The NTSB attributed the probable cause of the accident to the pilot's not maintaining aircraft control while maneuvering after takeoff and his inadequate preflight planning and preparation.
Cessna 402C, Vieques, Puerto Rico, July 8, 2000–"One main landing gear tire, wheel and brake assembly, the left wing lower skin from the area above the wing flap, the left wing baggage compartment door, the right nose baggage compartment door, the cabin floor cover and some items from the U.S.
Twenty-two months after the crash of a Cessna 208B Caravan Cargomaster following its night takeoff from Mobile, Ala., NTSB investigators still appear no closer to discovering the cause of the accident, although theories abound.

I have to say, Maxwell Drew Johnson may not have any sense of danger or how to wear a diaper discreetly, but she did manage to make that throw look almost graceful.
Jessica Simpson's kids never stop looking bewildered. I guess they get that from her.
Is this safe? This doesn't look safe. Jessica Simpson seems to be okay with it — she was the one taking pictures — but I'm not sure that should be the barometer of what's okay.
I'll never get tired of Jessica Simpson's kids looking bewildered. It's like he's just realized his name is Ace Knute.
Maxwell and Ace seem really excited about this press event. And by that I mean, can someone please help them?
Jessica Simpson's baby always looks like he would rather be anywhere else, and like maybe there's a tiny person in the camera who can save him.
That is the face of an infant who has already resigned himself to his fate.
Jessica "Wait, What About Me?" Simpson had a baby boy over the weekend and, in a move I can only assume was done to steal tabloid column inches from North West, has named her child Ace Knute Johnson.
Ace like the bandage. Knute like that cute baby polar bear abandoned by its mother. I mean, who named this baby, Sarah Palin?
Congratulations, Maxwell Drew. You have the second-worst name in the family now.
Jessica Simpson captioned this photo "Metaphor," but she could've just called it "Please remember I'm pregnant, too." She must be feeling like Kim Kardashian stole all of her thunder, which can't be a comfortable feeling.
Every weekend marks an occasion for people to bring presents to Jessica Simpson's house, and this time it was Maxwell Drew Johnson's first birthday. According to People, guests were treated to face painting, a children's band (ugh), and an array of food including "hot dogs, grilled cheese, tacos, fresh fruit, lemonade and candy."
I believe everything except for the fresh fruit thing.

Medical and Biotech [MESH] Definitions
A term used pathologically to describe BILIRUBIN staining of the BASAL GANGLIA; BRAIN STEM; and CEREBELLUM and clinically to describe a syndrome associated with HYPERBILIRUBINEMIA. Clinical features include athetosis, MUSCLE SPASTICITY or hypotonia, impaired vertical gaze, and DEAFNESS. Nonconjugated bilirubin enters the brain and acts as a neurotoxin, often in association with conditions that impair the BLOOD-BRAIN BARRIER (e.g., SEPSIS). This condition occurs primarily in neonates (INFANT, NEWBORN), but may rarely occur in adults. (Menkes, Textbook of Child Neurology, 5th ed, p613)
Meningitis, Escherichia Coli
A form of gram-negative meningitis that tends to occur in neonates, in association with anatomical abnormalities (which feature communication between the meninges and cutaneous structures) or as OPPORTUNISTIC INFECTIONS in association with IMMUNOLOGIC DEFICIENCY SYNDROMES. In premature neonates the clinical presentation may be limited to ANOREXIA; VOMITING; lethargy; or respiratory distress. Full-term infants may have as additional features FEVER; SEIZURES; and bulging of the anterior fontanelle. (From Menkes, Textbook of Child Neurology, 5th ed, pp398-400)
Softening or loss of brain tissue following CEREBRAL INFARCTION; cerebral ischemia (see BRAIN ISCHEMIA), infection, CRANIOCEREBRAL TRAUMA, or other injury. The term is often used during gross pathologic inspection to describe blurred cortical margins and decreased consistency of brain tissue following infarction. Multicystic encephalomalacia refers to the formation of multiple cystic cavities of various sizes in the cerebral cortex of neonates and infants following injury, most notably perinatal hypoxia-ischemic events. (From Davis et al., Textbook of Neuropathology, 2nd ed, p665; J Neuropathol Exp Neurol, 1995 Mar;54(2):268-75)
Gilbert Disease
A benign familial disorder, transmitted as an autosomal dominant trait. It is characterized by low-grade chronic hyperbilirubinemia with considerable daily fluctuations of the bilirubin level.
Insurance, Long-term Care
Health insurance to provide full or partial coverage for long-term home care services or for long-term nursing care provided in a residential facility such as a nursing home.
