I'm Faith.
I'm from the sticks of North Carolina. I have a serious twang and a penchant for bluegrass music. I also hate bugs and being in the middle of nowhere.
I used to be a big-time magazine editor. Now I'm a wife and a mama, a writer and photographer.
I ain't rich, but I's happy.
Mmm. This good-lookin' man is my husband, Simon. He hails from England, where he grew up eating Marmite and dancing to "the Hokey Cokey."
He works with the homeless and loves sound.
We got married in 2007, and then came…
Adlai. Pronounced "Add-lie." Two syllables, long i.
He was born in November 2010.
He likes dinosaurs and Darth Vader, and he can probably eat more pancakes than you.
We like him alright, I guess.
Two-and-a-half years later, Koa was born.
His name means "joy". I'd say that's about right.
We live just north of London, but sometimes we say London to sound cooler.
Want to know how a Carolina girl got herself all the way to England?

It was announced today that UMass is making the jump from the FCS CAA to the FBS MAC. UMass will begin FBS play in the 2012 season and have home games at Gillette Stadium for the first few seasons.
I know this is not newsworthy for many PSU people, but I am from MA and was very close to going to the Zoo. However, I went to Dear Old State instead the rest is history. Needless to say, I am very happy for the Zoo and the state of Massachusetts. I think its a great move. One of the main reasons I did not end up at UMass was because they did not have big-time football.
I was just thinking about a possible series between UMass and PSU. We end up playing 1 or 2 MACrifices every year anyway. UMass played in the Big House last year and came close to pulling the upset. Would it be possible to do a 2 for 1? Play 2 games at Beaver and then do one at Gillette? I know Penn State's schedule is pretty full for the next 3 or 4 seasons, but down the road this could happen.
As a Masshole, I would love to see Penn State in Gillette. Maybe playing in MA would even revive the now extinct series with BC.

Real wedding: Andrea + Jeff
I can't tell you how much I love weddings that really have fun with with the seriousness of everything! Clearly, Andrea and Jeff had a totally awesome time putting their wedding together, and it absolutely shows in these pictures! My favorite details has GOT to be the "just married" sign on her wheelchair…genius! Andrea explains all the other details below…enjoy!
Us! We wanted the wedding to show our personalities fully – we wanted it to be fun, with bright colors, quirky touches, as well as eye catching details as my new hubby, Jeff, and I are both graphic designers and thus slaves to aesthetically pleasing everything!
The main color was granny smith apple green (which is my favourite) as well as black and white. We wanted it all to look great and contemporary but we also wanted a casual feel since me and Jeff are anything but fancy.
We planned an outdoor ceremony, which, in Edmonton, AB can be precarious; however, the weather came through for us and the day turned out perfectly! We got married in a park under a big tree. We hung Martha Stewart white paper flowers from the main tree as well as the trees entering the secluded park area. We also had a lemonade stand with lemon squares and a big 'LEMONADE $.10 FREE' sign, t-shirts that our lovely (and arguably, slightly lazy) ushers made with our large mugs on the front and arrows pointing to which side was who's, and my favourite detail, a super tacky 'JUST MARRIED' sign complete with plastic green flowers around two hearts and dangling cans for the back of my wheelchair.
We very nearly didn't go see this venue, but luckily at the last minute decided 'why not?' and fell in love with it instantly. It was a blank slate with white walls which were perfect because I knew I wanted decals from What Is Blik as my wall decor – there are so many designs and so many custom color options, I'd recommend everyone look into them!
We also had fake mustachios I bought online at some children's store waiting at the front table when people arrived. We figured we could save them for just the photobooth, but this way they were enjoyed all night - a bunch of people just kept the mustaches on all night, some got creative and made eyebrows and beards out of them – they turned out great, broke the ice, and definitely made the wedding more casual and fun.
My darling husband asked me to marry him with a stickman country music video called 'Don't Rollover My Heart' – how could I not say yes to that? We chose to walk into the reception with the song playing. It was awesome because the majority of our guests had seen the video and could hum along and it was a great start to the evening!
For the reception we went the iPod DJ route. We made a playlist with a bunch of songs we wanted to hear and asked our friend Joff to DJ and add whatever songs he felt would get the dance floor going. As a thank-you, we bought him an iPod DJ mixer which made things run smoother and apparently was lots of fun for him.
As I mentioned above, I am a graphic designer at Paper Leaf Design and thought who better to sum up us and our wedding on paper than I? Rather than a monogram we decided on a 'love birds' logo for ourselves; this detail, as well as others from the invitations, were carried on throughout all of the stationary which tied everything together perfectly.
My two favourite stationary ideas were the table numbers on large glass water bottles – pretty and practical – as well as our seating chart. Instead of a bunch of different pieces of paper on aboard, we designed a big seating chart and printed it on poster board. It was a fun detail when people entered the reception.
As I mentioned above, our main decorations were the decals on the wall from What Is Blik, they really brought a touch of fun and tied everything together.
For our centerpieces I knew very early on in the planning stages that I wanted tall vases filled with granny smith apples, then I found the glass bottles and knew I wanted to put table numbers on those, and that just didn't balance well together so then came in the short vases with hydrangeas – a great accident!
The black table clothes were quite a bit more expensive than the free ones that came with the venue; however, we only had 105 people, so not many tables (this was my justification to Jeff) and they made the tables look so much richer – I stick by my decision!
Lastly, the green napkins! I was a stickler for everything being the right granny smith apple green – not so easy! Luckily my glorious bridesmaid Teira is a seamstress and was able to take the right color material and sew together 120 napkins, 4 table runners, and as a surprise, a few throw pillows to go on the black couches in the lounge!
We lucked out with many talented friends who were so helpful in so many aspects – one of those people was our friendly neighbour chocolatier! We've known Jacqui for years and knew that our favours would definitely have to be her Jacek Chocolate! We had green tea infused chocolates with a green jewel on top as well as a milk chocolate ganache in a dark shell with white chocolate drizzles on top. So tasty!
We got the cupcakes from Fuss Cupcakes – super amazing and tasty local cupcake shop. We went with cupcakes, 1/3 chocolate with cream cheese icing, 1/3 chocolate with chocolate butter cream icing, and 1/3 vanilla with cream cheese icing. We had little signs coming out of the different kinds of cupcakes, and the different colors of icing and cake mirrored the colors of the wedding perfectly.
My very favourite part was the extra large cupcake on top of the cupcake tower. It was extra cute and I think made the cupcakes all the more special.
Photography was another area of talented friends and knowing who we'd be going with even before we got married! We went with Leah Rae Photography – I had know Leah for almost 10 years, she's a super talented photographer and I knew she'd capture every moment perfectly. The other great thing about having Leah was that she knew me, so I could rest assured she wouldn't be awkward to direct around my wheelchair as I'm sure some might be.
The other half of the photography was our friend Gravy – he was Leah's second shooter, but he also did our photo booth shots. He did a grand job and made sure he got just about everyone in the photo booth over the course of the evening.
We were very fortunate to have these photographers! They made us look good
The bouquets, boutonnieres and corsages for the bridal party and family were all done by Eden Lilly. They are amazing and awesome people… and they're pretty good florists as well I suppose The bouquets were made with green hydrates and white freesia. My bouquet was wrapped with green ribbon and had a tiny picture frame which I bought from Etsy with a picture of my Aunt hanging from the top.
BRIDE & BRIDESMAIDS – My wedding dress and all of the bridesmaids dresses were all designed by a local designer Kelsey McIntyre. The bridesmaids all designed different dresses but had them made out the same material to keep a unified look and still having dresses they'll wear again (the green on them is removable). The differences in the dresses but having the same material looked so sharp and all the girls looked amazing!
My hair piece was from the lovely Twigs & Honey on Etsy – it was exactly what I wanted!
GROOM & GROOMSMEN – Jeff and the groomsmen dressed fairly casual opting for no dress jackets and wearing checkered vans instead of dress shoes. The guys then had ties made out the same material as the green from the bridesmaids dresses and the white from my dress which looked great!

Modern green tabletop
Amanda Auer from In The Now Weddings sent me this gorgeously modern tablescape she recently designed, and its totally perfect for Brooklyn Bride!
The venue is actually the Shorebreak Hotel in Huntington Beach. It's brand new, just opened in May of '09 and has a great retro beach funky theme to it. When I was concepting this shoot, I knew I wanted this table to be a "rat pack" vibe- very mid-century modern with a playful color scheme focusing mainly around whites. Clean, crisp, simple, but some killer details!
I was CRAZY about the drink flags, which said 'CHEERS!' in tonal green, as a perfect addition. Also, the stemmed wine glass has a very retro astro-burst pattern [reminded me of the Jetsons for sure, and it also matched the salad plate's pattern as well]. I had to pop the color by filling the vase with kelly green water, wrapping a simple ribbon around each place setting and bringing in the french macarons as favors. I picture this for a couple looking to freshen up a throwback wedding look with a little new modern twist.
The colors ended up at kelly green, aqua, white, with touches of platinum [to give that 50's kick to it]. Think Palm Springs meets TODAY with that funky centerpiece of Dusty Miller. My team and I actually rocked the florals ourselves [and I'm totally in love with the all-filler Dusty Miller centerpiece- totally wacky like a little tree on crack!] while we depended on Wayne Toshikazu, my photographer, to capture it.

Sigh…e-sessions like these make me want to get tattoos, look cool, and jump on a bed.

Real wedding: Josie + Adam p.1
I love this wedding for 2 big reasons. 1) Its friggin adorable! How can you not love this quirky circus theme with all the personal touches? 2) Chad's office, Deborah Berke & Partners Architects LLP, designed this hotel! I wish we had one of these in NYC, it would be a big hit. Keep reading below for the bride's writeup of the day! Lots more pics coming up at 1pm, you don't want to miss them…

The tiny North Dakota town of Leith, made famous by some citizens' plan to turn it into a white supremacist enclave, is facing water and sewer violations from the state and may be forced to suspend civic operations. According to the Bismarck Tribune, the state may declare the home of Leith's white supremacist leader Paul Craig Cobb's uninhabitable, forcing him to leave the town and seek shelter elsewhere.
Leith lies in North Dakota's Custer District, and the Custer District Health Unit's environmental health practitioner Aaron Johnson told the Tribune that an order expired on Monday which requested that Cobb provide his residence with running water and adequate sanitary facilities.
"I don't know how the situation will progress, but the notice has expired and there is no extension," Johnson said to the Tribune.
Much of what is left of Leith, ND is abandoned. Cobb's property has no running water and it is believed that he is using an old outhouse on the lot. Adjacent buildings are run-down heaps, including an abandoned creamery. The state was in the process of condemning those buildings when Cobb announced his intentions to turn Leith into an all-white, neo-Nazi enclave earlier this summer.
The town was a scene of protests last weekend. White supremacists gathered to support Cobb's plan, which began two years ago when he started buying abandoned tracts of land in hopes of taking over and running Leith's city government. A group of counter protesters who oppose Cobb also demonstrated at the site over the weekend.

"Why is the ocean so very big?"
"It need to be big to hold a story that is so very old."
The Ocean Story relates the events occurring in the ocean told by an adult to a young child. In lovely, spare language, the water cycle, the creatures in the ocean, and the problems affecting its waters are presented in a straightforward style that young children can easily understand. It's a simple explanation for these concepts and perfect for an introduction to all the aspects of the oceans in today's world.
The art is appealing and child-friendly. The more unusual creatures are named in the art and some of them are presented with the sounds they make. The art highlights the problems that take place, including oil spills, while presenting a beautiful palette of colors that show the story as it unfolds.
The book ends with the idea that the earth and oceans are part of one another, and we must do our part to keep the ocean story alive.
Activity 1

Event Sponsorship FAQs
Since the first Clif Bar came out of Mary's oven, we've been committed to supporting community-minded athletic events and grassroots gatherings across the country. We love rallying around the great work you're doing to help make the world a happier and healthier place.
As much as we wish we could provide support to all the great events that come our way, we aren't able to say yes to every request we get.
Before you take the time to submit a sponsorship request, please read through these FAQs to get answers to some of the more common questions.
What is the Goody Bag program?
The Goody Bag is what we call our event sponsorship application and support program.
What does the Goody Bag program support?
The Goody Bag program is designed to support community-minded, human-powered, athletic and/or socially responsible and sustainably-minded events for all kinds of people all over the nation.
What can the Goody Bag program provide?
The program is currently set up for product (Clif Bar & Company nutritional foods) donation only.
For monetary support, please submit your request here and it will be passed on to a Regional Field Manager.
What are some of the rules of the program?
Due to the extraordinary number of requests we receive each day, in order to be considered for the Goody Bag program, we need to receive your application a minimum of 90 days in advance of the date of your event.
We ask that if you request Clif Bar & Company products at your event, there should not be any other energy bars or competitors present.
We value knowing that you're choosing Clif for your participants for all of the same reasons that you choose it for yourself. In turn, we really want to work with those who value us for who we are (and the food we make) as much as we value your event for what it brings to our community at large.
What else besides product does Clif Bar & Company provide?
We're happy to provide a Clif Bar banner for your event (assuming that you promise to send it back when you are done with it!). We like to re-use when we can!
We're also happy to provide our logo for you to use in promoting your event (and your generous sponsor) on flyers, T-shirts, websites, banners and beyond!
We do ask, however, that you use our logo only if you receive a "YES" to sponsorship.
What if you've sponsored my event in the past?
If we have sponsored your event in the past that does not automatically mean we'll be able to sponsor your event again year after year. As much as we love to remain loyal to those who are loyal to us, we do have a limited budget and Clif Bars don't grow on trees. We like to share the goodness when we can and appreciate that you do, too. Please don't take it personally!
So if I get my application in on time and my event is a perfect fit for Clif can I count on sponsorship?
Unfortunately, the answer here is no. We have far more applications than bars to support them all. We will do our best to explore the options for purchase or support the next time around.
When can I expect to hear from Clif Bar & Company regarding my sponsorship request?
You can expect to hear from Clif Bar 45 – 60 days prior to your event.
We thank you for your interest and support in working with Clif Bar & Company. We value your decision to support one of the only remaining private and organic energy bar companies on the market and will do everything we can to figure out a way to support you and your event.
If we have not answered all your questions, feel free to send an email to firstname.lastname@example.com and we'll be sure to get back to you as soon as we can.
Are you ready to submit a request for sponsorship? The journey starts here...
Thanks again for thinking of us and for your continued support and loyalty to Clif Bar & Company. We appreciate it!
-Your friends at Clif Bar & Company

Weather Officials Urge Tornado SafetyBy Evelina Burnett | Published 30 Oct 2013 06:00am |
Safety officer John Willie Dedeaux gives directions as he heads out to make sure everyone is in place during a tornado drill at Pass Christian Elementary and Middle Schools. Students are lined up in stairwells and hallways, crouched down, hands covering their heads.
Dedeaux says these drills are vital.
"The importance of them is making sure the teachers and kids go where they are supposed to go if something does happen, and myself and principals know where to go to check on people," he says. "We're always stressing the safety and when we do our drills, that we're doing them right."
This morning at 9:15 a.m, the National Weather Service will also hold a tornado drill, during its routine weekly test on NOAA weather radios. Steve Wilkinson is warning coordination meteorologist for the National Weather Service in Jackson.
"You don't want to be making the decision of where to go and what to do when something's bearing down on you," he says. "This time of year is leading up to a secondary tornado season, so what we encourage people to do is to have a drill and know exactly what you would do."
April is the busiest month for tornadoes in Mississippi, but November and March are second busiest. In fact, the drill may be good preparation for as early as tomorrow.
"We have at least some risk of severe storms and weather on Thursday," Wilkinson says. "So coming right after the drill, there will be some chance of severe weather, possibly in the form of a tornado or two. So it's an immediate risk, coming right after the drill."
The National Weather Service also encourages residents to get NOAA weather radios, which automatically turn on at night during emergencies. Eighty percent of November tornadoes have occurred at night.

One of our recent beautiful brides, Alicia was a delight to work with. We did our entire order from concept to completion over email and online! Alicia contacted us with a seed of an idea and some gorgeous colors - sky blue and chocolate - and we went from there. The most important thing Alicia was hoping to convey in her jewelry was a delicate feel. Here is one of her completed bridemaids' pieces:
Alicia's delicate bridesmaid's pieces are blue chalcedony pendants asymmetrically accented with tiny sky blue pearls and Swarovski crystals on an antique silver chain.
We were both very pleased with the finished design, here's what Alicia had to say: "Truly, the necklaces you made were one of my favorite details of the wedding. I could not wait to give them to my bridesmaids! Thank you so much for working with me to create something so perfectly to what I had in mind! I'm so glad that I worked with you!"
Alicia was a pleasure to work with too, and we were delighted to see how perfectly the bridemaids pieces reflected her on her special day. The excellent wedding photography was done by Captured Emotions Photography. Click here for more samples of our custom design work, and here to contact us for more information. We'd love to work with you on you're perfect custom wedding jewelry!

Continuing our quest on making foods that will appeal to your stereotypical MMA fan (male ages 18-39), we're going with possibly the greatest sandwich ever invented. While some of you folks may be heathen vegetarians, most of us still prefer the most glorious and quintessential American food of all: the hamburger. For many burger eaters however, their knowledge of burgers is relegated to 24-packs of frozen patties and McDonalds and the meatloaf-y burgers their baby boomer parents made. These inferior meats are common, and everyone grew up on them, so it isn't like anyone should be embarrassed about eating these - just about everyone did. Eventually, through the magic of the internet and the popularization of the Food Network, I learned better, and now wish to pass this on to more people.
This article is going to lean heavily upon the excellent food blog A Hamburger Today with a bit of Food Network thrown in - mostly because Alton Brown is kinda awesome. Something interesting about Alton actually, is that as HE got older, he seems to have changed his burger making choices, too. Fairly early in his Food Network career (early 2000 in season 2; the show ended in season 14), he did an episode of Good Eats on how to make a hamburger. In it, he did a few things that he later changed completely when doing a 2009 episode of Dear Food Network - he contradicted himself and seemingly changed to what is more in line with what I prefer doing. I'll cover those later.
The first step is meat. Despite this possibly eliciting a "duh" out of you, this step is usually overlooked - tons of people just buy pre-formed patties or regular ground beef. Buying pre-formed frozen patties is almost always the wrong way to go. Almost all food is just better when it's fresh, and commercially ground beef and beef trimmings are no exception. Buying plain ground beef is fine, and for the general reward:work ratio, there's nothing wrong with it. Really, we're looking for a mixture of meats, and while you can usually buy the individual ground Chuck and ground Sirloin or whatever and mix those together, if, however, you can spare some extra work time and cleanup time, grinding your own is superior.
If you don't have a grinder, and let's face it, almost no one does (I don't), you can use a food processor. Use a low setting and pulse it on and off in quick bursts. In fact, in that Good Eats episode I was telling you about, Alton does exactly that (see the end for the link). Don't do too many or you'll turn your meat into paste. Again, Brown uses ten, but each food processor is different, so do a couple and then look to see if it's at the right consistency. Repeat as often as necessary.
As you'll see if you click on the source material, at the end of this article, you want fat. At least 80/20 and you get that almost always through Chuck. Whatever other beef you want to add to the mix is up to you, but Chuck is as close to mandatory as it gets.
Next up is seasoning. Don't. Do not salt your meat before cooking unless you want a dense patty over a tender one. This is quite possibly the first major deviation that most people have with the burger they're used to. There is a very extensive article from AHT linked below that goes into detail why this is superior than seasoning ahead of time. I will simply use a couple of the pictures as a demonstration:
Let me ask you folks... Which of these burgers would you rather eat? Because that top one has salt on the outside only, applied just before cooking. The bottom one had salt mixed into it before forming into patties. Look, salt dissolves protein. The longer you apply it for, the more it will dissolve. This is one of those things that Mr. Brown changed his mind on from his old episode to the new one a decade later. Again, please check out that article. It's a real eye-opener. I've tried a ton of different seasonings on top of burgers, but nothing seems to beat plain old fresh-cracked black pepper and kosher salt. Don't use table salt, the crystals are too small. They'll fall into the cracks of a loosely packed burger and not give you the crust you're looking for.

Is that code really yours?
Black Duck protexIP helps protect against license violations, but detection errors limit its usefulness
As open source software pushes its way further into the enterprise, a new set of risks has arisen regarding IP (intellectual property). The problem is that developers happily borrow code from various projects to save themselves from having to reinvent it. This help is all well and good as long as the resulting software complies with the licenses of the donor projects. The problem managers have is that they cannot know what parts of their code base comes from open source projects. A code snippet reused from a newsgroup posting could actually have come from a copyrighted open source project. And its use could legally require the company to open source its entire product. If the company is an ISV, it might even be faced with being required to offer its product at no cost.
Until recently, managers had to rely on their developers to avoid this problem. Now they can automate the process of checking their code with protexIP 4.0 from Black Duck Software. The product compares in-house code with many code sources, such as open source projects, and reports on matches it finds. A supporting component enables managers and legal counsel to approve the use of specific open source licenses for borrowed code. The solution manages the license agreements and provides a bill of materials that shows the company's obligations for the open source it uses. The license management portion of the product is robust and well-designed. The code analysis and identification, however, leave much to be desired.
Prepping for flight
Black Duck offers protexIP in two basic flavors. One version, protexIP/developer, resides locally at the customer site, with two separate editions available (Enterprise and Professional), differing in functionality. I reviewed Enterprise, the higher-end version of this product. The second version, called protexIP/on-demand, is a hosted edition of the same software that is typically used by IP attorneys and acquisition specialists who need to verify the provenance of software they're examining. Due to the size of the open source database, the on-site installation tends to require its own server. This server runs only on Linux.
In all cases, the client software is Java-based, so it runs on many platforms. To evaluate a code base, you marshal the code into a directory and point protexIP there. Unfortunately, protexIP does not integrate with source-code management systems, although an SDK enables developers to write interfaces should they wish to.

Colorectal cancer is the second leading cause of cancer deaths in the U.S., and studies have showen that colonoscopies can help prevent people dying from colon cancer. But the recession of 2008/2009 forced Americans to cut back on health care costs and as a result 500,000 fewer people with insurance underwent the preventive procedure, new research finds. The study concluded that people with higher out of pocket costs were less likely to be screened and that lowering cost barriers could significantly improve access to services. Under the Affordable Care Act though, preventative health screenings like colonoscopies must be covered without additional cost sharing and last year, about 86 million Americans took advantage of this benefit.
Fewer Americans Received Life-Saving Cancer Screenings During Recession

Argentine billionaire Eduardo Elsztain on Thursday decided not to invest in Israeli conglomerate IDB Holdings.
Elsztain had been expected to invest hundreds of millions of shekels in IDB, thus keeping Israeli tycoon Nochi Dankner in control of the debt-burdened conglomerate.
According to media reports, Dankner is now attempting to find new investors in Israel and internationally to give IDB bondholders millions of shekels in place of Elsztain.
IDB and its creditors are due to submit to the Tel Aviv District Court their plans for a debt arrangement in the group on Sunday.
The legal proceedings began with the claim of the IDB Development bondholders that the company is insolvent, which the company firmly denies.

Notice anything different? Yes! The Ninja Baker logo has changed. On the home page of NinjaBaking.com press the play button under the logo. Or if you are an e-mail subscriber, click here to see the video.
The creator of the animation, David Watkinson, is the same man who is the graphics coordinator for the hit FOX TV show, Bones. He just happened to be on hiatus. So I was lucky to snag him for the job. Oh, he just happens to be my husband, too. So I got to put it on my "Honey, Do List."
David with Dr. Story Musgrave who is the only astronaut to have flown on all five space shuttles. By the way, David has worked on many space oriented films starting with Apollo 13 and including the first two Men in Black movies as well as Clint Eastwood's film, Space Cowboys. You can see a list of all 34 major motion pictures that have featured David's work on his website: Click here.
High ratings for Bones have garnered an eighth season along with high praise for the graphics from LA Times TV Critic, Mary McNamara. "Even the most episodic procedural can feel cinematic…Bones and Fringe have computer graphics that are just as much fun as those in Iron Man."
She goes on to say, "As anarchist Emma Goldman certainly would have said if she were a television critic: If I can't watch Bones, I don't want to be part of your revolution." Click here to read the full article.
For the artist's info, click here.
Ms. McNamara in another article listed Bones as one of the TV shows she watches when she's off the clock, wanting to relax.
For the artist's info, click here.
David in his Bones crew cap.
Prestigious online tech ezine Associate Editor, Debra Kaufman, is apparently also a fan of Bones. And of David's work. She did a whole article primarily about him! Click here to read the piece.
Kudos to Ms. Kaufman for capturing quotes that explains my husband's work creating content for all the computers on the show, including the very impressive eight foot long transparent monitor that hangs from the ceiling. "Most people think the content on these screens are done in post…But the scenes are all shot live with the actors interacting with the screens in real time."
Bones is also popular in Japan. When Japanese singing superstar,Seiko Matsuda made her debut on the show, the Ninja Baker became a part of her American entourage. Matsuda-san's English is excellent so I mostly translated for her (very nice) manager and make-up man.
In the Creative Cow article Ms. Kaufman explains that what my husband is doing is akin to authoring an interactive kiosk. She sums it up with this quote from him, "I combine text, video, still images, 2D and 3D animations, and program them with JavaScript so that our people on the set can interact with the graphics to match what the actor is allegedly doing."
Of course, the success of the graphics and the popularity of Bones are due to collaborative efforts within and between departments. And that takes a lot of time and energy. I have witnessed the tireless efforts of the Bones crew, so over the years I have sent NinjaBaking.com treats to the Fox studio for my husband's colleagues. Here's a gluten-free rendition of the most often requested mini cheesecakes.
Computer Graphics Department gag photo from the Season 7 wrap party. From left to right: Mark Marcum, Jim Unsinn, Simon Knights, David Watkinson, Mike Stein, and Chris Waggoner.
The Chocolate Crust:
Preheat your oven to 350 degrees. Prepare the crust by crushing a box of gluten-free chocolate animal crackers or your favorite cookies in a food processor. Pour 1 1/2 cups of crumbs into a large mixing bowl. Melt ¼ cup of organic coconut spread and add it to the bowl along with 4 tablespoons of Wholesome Sweeteners Organic Coconut Palm Sugar. Mix well. Press the combined cookies, coconut spread and sugar into the bottom of mini cupcake bakers lined with mini cupcake cases. I used a small ice cream scoop, which holds close to a heaping tablespoon of the crust combo.
Before adding the filling, generously sprinkle each of the crusts with chocolate chips. (About a half a bag.)
The Ninja Baker's Gluten-Free Coconut Chocolate Cheesecake Minis with Espresso Cream
Yields approximately 48 minis.
The Coconut Cheesecake Filling:
In a clean bowl beat two packages of eight-ounce cream cheese with a handheld mixer until little waves appear. Add 1 cup of Wholesome Sweeteners Organic Coconut Palm Sugar. (Yes, it's more expensive but it's delicious. And a Fair Trade item.) Next, mix in ¼ cup coconut flour. (Bob's Red Mill is great.) Then beat in 1 teaspoon of coconut extract. (Preferably organic.) Followed by two room temperature eggs. Beat them in one at a time to make sure they are fully incorporated. Using another clean mini ice cream scoop or large tablespoon; evenly distribute the filling into the crumb and chocolate chip lined cases. Bake for 18 minutes and/or until the tops are firm.
The Espresso Cream Topping:
A 16-ounce box of Healthy Top or similar gluten-free, dairy-free whipping cream serves as the base of the topping. Apparently the company recommends freezing the item. Refrigerating the item worked fine for me. Just like "regular" whipped cream though, I placed my KitchenAid bowl and beater in the freezer the night before. To the faux whipping cream add ½ cup of cooled espresso, ½ cup Wholesome Sweeteners Organic Powdered Sugar and 4 teaspoons coffee extract. Whip until soft peaks appear. Don't expect it to look exactly like the dairy kind of whipped cream. But also don't worry if you want to pipe the lovely stuff; the decorations turn out looking the same.
For the final elegant topper, grate Newman's Own Organics Dark Espresso Chocolate on top. (A company committed to sustainable farming. And generous with coupons. Click here for your chocolate coupons.)
Next step? Enjoy! Just like all the hardworking members of the FOX TV Bones set.
Wishing you a special computer guy or gal in your life.

So you want to write for SB Nation? You've come to the right place. This will answer all of your questions about applying to be a part of our 320 plus sports web sites. The one key message to remember here before you read any of these is this...we are not an open platform who accepts anyone who applies. We judge both writing talent and dedication to your area of expertise before ever agreeing to let you write for our properties.
- Who should apply?
We'll take an application from anyone but if you want to GREATLY increase your chances of becoming a writer on our team sites, the best thing you can do is to pick a community and write FanPosts for that chosen community. Ingratiate yourself with that community and show that you are a leader and can remain dedicated.
- Wait, what's a community, I want to write for SBNation.com!?
SB Nation isn't just sbnation.com. We have over 300 individual "team" or "sport" sites that cover everything from the Oakland Athletics to the Columbus Blue Jackets to Manchester United to the sport of cycling. Here's our list of blogs. Don't just write and say, "I want to write for you." That's not how we work. Pick a community or pick a specialty and approach those sites first before submitting anything to us.
- So once you've picked a community, what should you do?
Go make an account there. Start participating in comments, FanPosts and elsewhere. FanPosts are one of the best components of our network because it allows you to showcase your thoughts, writing and opinion without having to go through a filter to get it out in the wild. Just make sure and adhere to the community guidelines when posting something. We have 300 plus sites and we allow most of these sites to moderate the sites as they see fit. Some communities allow profanity and some do not. That's why it's crucial for you to spend time reading in those communities before you participate there to get the tone of what's happening there.
- But, but, I don't want to be restricted to writing about one team! I'm great at everything.
That may be the case but we rarely hire writers for SBNation.com. Even the folks who write for SBNation.com are often specialists in a given sport. And a good number of those people started in our team communities before being promoted to writing for SBNation.com.

Sugarloaf Mountain, Urca, Rio de Janeiro

Sugarloaf Mountain, Urca, Rio de Janeiro
The World > South America > Brazil > Rio de Janeiro
Sugarloaf Mountain (in Portuguese, Pão de Açúcar), is a peak situated in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from the mouth of Guanabara Bay on a peninsula that sticks out into the Atlantic Ocean. Rising 396 metres (1,299 ft) above boats that come into the harbor, its name is said to refer to its resemblance to the traditional shape of concentrated refined loaf sugar. However, it is believed by some that the name actually derives from Pau-nh-acuqua ("high hill") in the Tupi-Guarani language, as used by the indigenous Tamoios.
The mountain is only one of several monolithic morros of granite and quartz that rise straight from the water's edge around Rio de Janeiro. A glass-paneled cable car (in popular Portuguese, bondinho - more properly called teleférico), capable of holding 75 passengers, runs along a 1400-metre route between the peaks of Pão de Açúcar and Cara de Cão every 20 minutes. The original cable car line was built in 1912 and rebuilt around 1972/1973 in its current form. The cable car goes from the base, not the peak of the Babilônia mountain, to the Urca mountain and then to the Pão de Açúcar mountain.
(source: wikipedia)
The Sugarloaf was also made famous from the pictures "Now Voyager" & "Moonraker, James Bond"

Here's your soundtrack. Okay, maybe they're not exactly brazillian but their music is awesome and their live shows legendary.
Now, Brazil covers almost half of South America and its Amazon rainforest is the world's largest jungle... which is rapidly getting cut down. The country is basically one giant botanical garden with some bangin' cities on its edges.
Brazil was colonized in 1808 by the royal court of Portugal, which was fleeing Napolean's troops. They didn't stay long, and Brazil won its independence in 1822.
Its biggest city, Sao Paulo, is the financial hub of South America. Brazil is the "b" in BRIC -- Brazil, Russia, India and China. These four were labeled the world's fastest developing large economies in the year 2001.
Brazil is known for three things: amazingly beautiful women, carnival, and Pele -- King of Football, Athlete of the Century, football ambassador of the world and a declared national treasure.
Brazillians can tell foreigners a mile away, by the way their hips move. Samba is built into the soul of brazil and carnival is when it bursts out into twenty-four hour undying explosions of sound on every street.
This picture of mask diving at the Taipus reefs makes me shed hot and salty tears all over my calendar, which is set on "January" right now.

Should we somehow jump into the fray to help a division rival? Well we just did it for the Clips, and it's not the Lakers so lets do it. So here's an idea, however unlikely. Oh and Mr. Fong, this is for you! ;)
Golden State gets: PJ Tucker, Markieff Morris, Alex Oriakhi
Dallas gets: Andrew Bogut, Marcus Morris, Kendall Marshall, Suns 2015 2nd round pick
Suns get: Richard Jefferson, Shawn Marion, GS 2014 1st round pick, Dallas 2016 1st round pick.
Why G.S. does it: This is all about getting D12 so he is the prize and we are facilitating it. Ultimately this is trading Bogut, Jefferson and a first rounder for D12. That's equal value I would say.
Why Dallas does it: This is really the tough sell. Dallas is obviously in the hunt for Howard, but I think if he comes out saying that they are out of it, Dallas must look elsewhere for help and I think Bogut is a pretty nice consolation prize, especially if they are able to shed Marion's (or Carter's) salary in the process, and pick up 2 serviceable young pieces in positions of need. What this also does is leaves them with room to sign another large piece such as Josh Smith. I think a Dallas frontline of Bogut, Nowitzki, and Smith could be extremely potent.
Why Phoenix does it: obvious. Draft picks and FUTURE cap space. Everyone will scream that this kills our cap space this year, but seriously, who cares? at the end of the year we would have Marion, Jefferson, and Butler coming off the books. That's $28,362,796! I say lets use what cap space we have this year to garner as many future assets as possible. Plus this still leaves us to pursue trade avenues with Gortat and Scola for the future.

WASHINGTON D.C. (WXOW)-- Gundersen Lutheran's CEO, Jeff Thompson, MD, discussed Greening America's Hospitals at a White House Event on Tuesday.
The White House Council on Environmental Quality hosted the top Administration officials, hospital administrators and policy experts for a discussion.
The group hopes to encourage increasing sustainability efforts in hospitals and spotlight the linkages between environmental sustainability and economic profitability.
Dr. Thompson said Gundersen Lutheran is saving thousands on energy, waste and water bills by creating a safer and healthier atmosphere for patients and hospital employees.
He highlighted the wind turbine project in Cashton and the partnership with the La Crosse County Landfill to recycle methane gas.
Here are some of the reasons why they host the event:
Hospitals have enormous potential for incorporating innovative and efficient design into their business models. HHI is helping hospitals achieve lower costs and better patient care by challenging them to improve operations in six areas:
As a result of these efforts, more than 500 hospitals have taken steps to improve the environment in which people live, work and receive care.

The Bottom Line
- Heavy duty stainless steel rod cooking grates
- Complete stainless steel construction
- Many stainless parts are very thin and all but the burners are low grade
- Not designed, made, or supported by KitchenAid
- Low heat output for the size
- Two 14,500 BTU stainless steel tubular burners
- 386 square inches of primary grilling space for a total cooking are of 515 square inches
- 29,000 BTU maximum output from the main burners
- Stainless steel rod cooking grates
- Complete stainless steel (400 series except the burners) construction
- Electronic (battery powered) ignition
- Fold down side tables
- Propane tank, cover, and rotisserie kit sold separately
- Imported from China by Nexgrill exclusively for Lowes under the KitchenAid brand name
Guide Review - KitchenAid 2-Burner All Stainless Steel Pedestal Model# 720-0819 - Discontinued
The KitchenAid 2-burner at Lowes for 2012 is another of the small space gas grills that have come along in the last few years. With a small footprint and fold down side tables, this is the perfect size for the Condo or any other small space that allows gas grills. It is perfect if you don't want to do much else than basic grilling. This gas grill is just that, a basic, small, 2-burner gas grill.
The KitchenAid 2-burner, imported by Nexgrill without any support or input from KitchenAid is a shiny and attractive little grill. The complete stainless steel construction makes it stand out and gives the impression of quality. If you are looking at one of these on the floor of your local Lowes, take a walk around the back. There are vents and holes in the back lower panel. Feel the thickness and strength of the metal. This should give you a good idea of the quality of the construction.

Now I will say I only watched three of the Raptors seven preseason games but I don't recall Jonas and Amir on the court together during those three games. I have also followed the other four games on Yahoo Sports NBA play by play. I don't recall seeing Jonas and Amir paired during any of those four games, though they could have for very short periods of time.
Given that Amir is naturally a PF I was pondering the question. Now there are lot of possible answers to it some more plausible than others.
1. Bargnani has to start. Fine I can understand that but what about later on in the game?
2. Davis is Bargnani's backup. True enough but Davis only played 12 minutes in the last three preseason games combined, due to a minor hip injury.
3. Both Amir and Jonas foul a lot (true especially when Amir plays Center) but at PF Amir has become fairly good at keeping his fouls down to respectible level per 36 minutes. So the Raptors don't want to chance Amir picking up some fouls at PF limiting his court time as Jonas backup during the same game. However, as bad as Gray was in preseason he can still rebound better than Amir
4. Amir's shooting has not progressed enough at this point for him to be able to spread the floor leaving the lane and paint uncluttered with Raptors when Jonas plays. However, we have seen Ed play alongside Jonas and Amir for sure is a better outside shooter than Ed.
I am sure people could come up with other plausible reasons. In anycase I tweeted one of the Raptors local beat writers the following question. "Why haven't we seen Amir play alongside Jonas" Notice I specifically said play and not start. The anwswer I got was interesting.
"Casey doesn't want to get fired"
So for those of us who were hoping to see Jonas and Amir playing alongside each other for any serious minutes if any minutes at all, I think we can forget it, at least for 12-13.

This is beyond unbelivable:
"It is a tremendous accomplishment whenever you are chosen as a Coach of the Year by any organization," said Krzyzewski. "When it comes from USA Basketball, it is even more special. What could be more important than serving your country? I am honored to receive this award and need to thank the 2006 Senior National Team members, from the players to the coaches to the support staff, for all their hard work and dedication over the last year. This is a team accomplishment, not an individual one."
The 2006 Men's Senior National Team collected a 5-0 record in its pre-World Championship series of exhibition contests, and the USA Men's World Championship Team, comprised of 12 USA Senior National Team members, finished 8-1 at the 2006 FIBA World Championship, capturing the bronze medal.
"Mike did an outstanding job directing USA Basketball's 2006 Men's World Championship Team," said USA Basketball Executive Director Jim Tooley. "He has been involved with many USA Basketball teams throughout the years, and he always leaves an imprint of success. This year was no exception as he quickly created a team of which our country could be proud."
USA basketball sounds like is being run by a bigger bunch of losers than the ones who celebrated our moral victory over Southern Cal two years ago.
Seriously can someone explain this? This has to be a joke. Right? It has to be.

Loving Barack Obama to death
Full coverage the US Elections 2008
Now here is a cautionary tale on media bias: US voters have heard and seen so much of Barack Obama thanks to the tidal wave of coverage given to his campaign by adoring news broadcasters, that they are actually rebelling.
Are voters hearing too much about Barack Obama?
A poll just published shows that 48 percent of respondents feel that they have heard too much about Obama, the Democratic candidate, while 4 in 10 believe that they have not heard enough about his Republican opponent John McCain.
Astonishingly, even a quarter of Democrats complained that they were reaching Obama overload. Lesson to media acolytes (presumably applicable here as much as in the US): sometimes favouritism is counter-productive. It is possible to love your candidate to death.

Should they have replaced Kes with Seven?

In TNG everyone felt everyone was too comfortable with each other, all friendly and not really arguing. They added Ro Laren to 'throw a cat amongst the pigeons', someone to add a little more atmosphere to the crew interactions.
I think Seven was a similar idea, everyone respected Janeway and she always got the last word generally, Seven questioned her authority regularly and allowed the human side to Janeways character to come through on several occasions as she helped Seven regain her humanity. Kes did this to a certain extent but it was more Janeway teaching Kes little lessons about life rather than batting horns to get a point across.
Seven also replaced Kes with her interactions with the Doctor, a great pair in my opinion. Was nice to see how Kes taught the Doctor what it's like to be a person, then the Doctor did the same for Seven whilst enhancing his own character.
I can see your point in that Seven was similar to Tuvok and Data, and a more innocent viewpoint was lost with Kes leaving the series, but saying that she had very few good episodes in my opinion, maybe it was being so closely paired to Neelix, would have been interesting to see more of the Paris-Kes thing.
So, to answer your question, in my opinion, Seven was the right choice at the right time.

So far, approximately 2 million Hoosier taxpayers have already filed their annual tax returns. Some, however, have waited until the last few weeks.
What if you owe taxes?
The Indiana Department of Revenue has come up with a two-part approach designed to help Indiana taxpayers filing at the last minute.
First, be proactive. Be sure you file a tax return by April 15 even if you cannot pay the tax due. Filing a tax return will keep you on the right track.
Second, if you cannot pay the full amount due up front, you have two options:
If you cannot pay the full amount due when the bill arrives, you may be eligible for a payment plan. If you owe more than $100 and can pay at least 20 percent down, you will qualify for a payment plan (businesses will qualify if they owe more than $500, and can pay at least 20 percent down).
After you receive the bill, you can set up your payment plan online or contact the department with your request (addresses and phone numbers are on the back of the bill). Once your plan is approved, you can mail in payments or pay online.
How to File?
Now, about filing your tax return – the easiest way is to file electronically. Indiana offers a free online filing system called INfreefile for those who qualify. Go to Free File to see if you are eligible to complete your state and federal taxes online for free. At least 1 million Hoosiers qualify for INfreefile and last year more than 118,000 Hoosier taxpayers filed for free using INfreefile.
Filing your tax return and taking advantage of options to pay your tax due will get you headed in the right direction.

Justice is Served to Employees at LI Sushi Restaurants
Central Islip - (WALK) $262,887 worth of justice will be served to 70 workers who were cheated out of minimum wages and overtime at two sushi restaurants in Nassau, according to federal prosecutors.
The restaurants, Xaga Sushi in Hewlett and Merrick, and their president, Mei Yu Zhan, will pay back wages of $261,887 and $26,322 in penalties, according to the U.S. Department of Labor, Tuesday.
Prosecutors say employees at the two restaurants, including kitchen staff, wait-staff and bus-people were paid a flat, monthly rate, even when some worked 50 hours-per-week, or more.
Federal minimum-wage and overtime laws require employees be paid at least time-and-a-half their regular, hourly wage when they work more than 40 hours per-week. Prosecutors say the restaurants forced employees to pool their tips to share with the kitchen staff, an illegal practice.
An accountant for the restaurant claimed the company has been in compliance with federal law since December of 2012, and any violations are unintentional. Prosecutors say their investigation was prompted by a complaint filed at U.S. District Court in Central Islip in August.

By BRUCE SCHREINERAssociated Press
BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) - A Tennessean who died when a UPS cargo jet crashed in Alabama is being remembered as a skilled pilot who fulfilled her life's ambition thriving in a male-dominated profession.
The Jefferson County, Ala., medical examiner on Thursday night confirmed the identities of the two pilots aboard the A300 jet as 37-year-old First Officer Shanda Fanning of Lynchburg, Tenn., and 58-year-old Capt. Cerea Beal Jr. of Matthews, N.C. Both pilots died when the jet crashed in a field near the Birmingham-Shuttlesworth Airport early Wednesday.
Hank Williamson, manager of the Shelbyville, Tenn., Municipal Airport, hired Fanning to refuel planes and assist customers in the late 1990s. He said Thursday that Fanning "lived and breathed aviation." He said she was known as a good pilot whose goal was to fly for a major airline.

For several years I have had my hair cut by a lovely man named Keith, in his apartment. I had noticed that he had a small shrine in the living room, but I'd never mentioned it. Maybe I found the subject potentially embarrassing or I thought he might end up proselytizing me on behalf of his guru, or I was just reluctant to engage, like the New Yorker I am. But yesterday after he finished cutting my hair, we were sitting around chatting and I asked him if he had a meditation practice. He does. Sometimes he's better at sticking to it than other times. But he is absolutely persuaded of its rewards. Do it 20 minutes twice a day, he said, and your life will change. First, you will gain compassion and after that, fearlessness. And still more benefits will follow those. It's OK to have thoughts during meditation, he said, just don't BE the thoughts. "Be the space in between the thoughts." I recognized this as the same message from Sharon's guided meditation, of letting the thoughts float by like clouds in the sky. "The clouds aren't the sky," Sharon says. I once heard someone else suggest that you imagine the thoughts as having beaks and tails and flying across your mental sky like so many migrating birds.
Three different ways of describing the same idea -- which is something that you really have to experience for yourself to understand. I'm struck by how inadequate words are to capture the essence of the thing – yet words are what we have. And some of them work better for me than others. I once listened to a meditation tape that invoked imagery like Moon goddesses and rainbows and lotus blossoms. Somehow it made me think of My Little Pony and I ended up very cross. But I imagine that the state that is beyond words is very similar, no matter what words we use to try and summon it up.

Burberry celebrated its first Art of the Trench in Asia yesterday evening, which was held at the recently opened Burberry K11 store in Shanghai, China.
The event was hosted by British model Cara Delevingne, who wore a sleek white Burberry shawl-collar one-button suit which she opted to wear without a top, decorating her décolletage with gold necklaces.
Her green eyes were enhanced with a mocha eye colour, plus a rich plum shade was applied to her lips using Burberry Beauty products.
The only thing I would have changed about the look are those stacked-platform shoes, which feel a bit cumbersome in comparison to the rest of her look.

December 29, 2002 - This is the only year that the Broncos played a game on December 29. The 8-7-0 Broncos were hosting the 5-10-0 Arizona Cardinals in the season finale for both teams. Denver won the game 37-7. Two things make this contest remarkable. The first is that rookie RB Clinton Portis recorded his 8th 100+ yards game of the season by rushing for 228 yards and 2 touchdowns.
The other thing that made this game interesting was that Denver QB Steve Beuerlein (16 of 24 for 203 yards, 2 touchdowns) outdueled Arizona QB Jake Plummer (13 of 27 for 132 yards, 1 touchdown) -- Plummer would sign with Denver as a free agent following the 2002 season. He went on to a 9-2 record in his first season in the orange and blue, finishing with what would prove to be a career high 91.2% passer rating.

This collection of images was captured during the 2011 football season starting with practices in the blazing hot Arizona sun in August and ending on a windy, rainy Friday in November. The images were taken during practices, scrimmages and games and include varsity, junior varsity, freshmen, coaches, trainers, spirit squad and many others that support and applaud the efforts of student athletics.
Starting in the blistering hot Arizona sun Coach Michael Hudnutt and his staff of dedicated assistants helped mold these young men (and women) into a winning playoff contending team. Congratulations to them, the young student athletes, their parents, fans and boosters on a job well done.
May your experiences in that pivotal year of 2011 prepare you for a life of success. The lessons you learned this year will follow you throughout your life and be remembered for the friendships you formed, the hardships you endured, the victories you celebrated and in the end these experiences will make you a winner in the game of life.
