Two Guys In A Garage Tool Works is a pair of guys who happened upon a supply of spring steel scraps and, being woodworkers who loved hand tools, they hated to see the "scraps" going to waste - came upon the idea of re-purposing the steel into usable tools for the hand-tool crowd. Card scrapers, specifically...
As time has gone on, they've branched out into supplying spring steel plates for those who want to make their own hand saws, first supplying plates for stair saws then later expanding to larger saws and also saw-tooth pattern plates. Their plates come now with teeth pre-punched in a wide range of PPI and are ready for sharpening and setting.
I've linked to their web site before - Dom maintains an excellent library of saw handle templates online free for everyone to use. I see they have also added brass split nuts and screws to their list of available products, which means they are only lacking one thing for all of the metal parts of a saw - the back!
It would seem they are now ready to remedy that. Recently I was fortunate enough to be on a list of folks sent prototypes of their folded backs to evaluate and provide feedback. I am honored they would choose me as one to look at them. Here's what arrived:
Two of their prototype backs, and two 3" x 12" dovetail saw plates. The sawplates have teeth stamped out at 13 PPI ready for sharpening and setting. The teeth are wholly consistent, straight, and with a good rake angle for getting you started,
Using one of Dom's templates, a pair of their split nuts, some wood and one of their handle templates (or make your own) you have everything you need to make your own backsaw. Read more about Folded Backs and Two Guys In A Garage
A short public notice for all you sawmaking-types out there - Dominic, a saw-making enthusiast for some time now and one of the moderators over at the Woodnet Hand Tool Forum along with his partner Mike have put together a web site where he has PDF's of several classic saw handles available, as well making available for purchase some of the materials you may need. Take a look!

Something I am always asked for are the saw filing templates in PDF form that I made for my backsaw project. They're the ones that are just lines on a page showing an angle to file a saw at or lines showing ppi to aid in cutting new teeth, like in this shot:
There were a few sizes missing - I made some additional templates to cover more sizes and angles, hopefully these will help you out.
I've compiled them all into one document and put them here:
Saw filing templates
They are all in PDF format - if you plot them without scaling them to fit the page (no scaling, in other words), they should print to scale properly.
EDIT: For those daring types, here's a pair of progressive pitch templates, one for 6 ppi - 9 ppi Toe to Heel on a 9" (22.86cm) blade similar to Lie-Nielsen and another that is 7 – 13 PPI over 14" similar to their progressive-pitch filed tenon saw...

Have fun filing!

Do you make your own totes or tool handles? It is one of the most time and labor intensive parts of toolmaking. I find when making a saw, it probably took as much time to form the handle as it did to make the entire rest of the saw.
Today I see that Veritas, the manufacturing arm of Lee Valley, has come out with a new router bit the likes I haven't encountered before - a variable width round-over router bit. Made specifically for handles, it promises to speed the process greatly...
Lee Valley has also come out with several templates of theirs and classic Stanley plane totes, free for download.
The instructions for the router bit are available here.
Kudos to Veritas. This is the kind of forward thinking and customer oriented design we've come to expect from Lee Valley and Veritas. They are constantly innovating and coming out with tools and products geared towards the hand tool user - and though this technically doesn't count as a hand tool itself, I think I can let that slide by this time.

Have you ever had a favorite old tool that you have used absolutely forever, and weren't willing to give it up even though it's worn far past the point of usefulness? I have two such tools - both, unfortunately, happen to be marking gauges. One is an old Stanley #97 wheel marking gauge, the other a Stanley #77 mortise gauge.
This errant devotion to these old tools finally led to frustration when I realized that on the #77, the pins had worn down to the point that there wasn't enough pin left to mark anything with. Over the years I had filed them down to tiny little nubs - there simply wasn't enough of them left to do the job anymore.
Something else - I didn't have a decent cutting gauge, something that I am going to need for my radio cabinet project. Very similar to a marking gauge in construction, they use a knife blade rather than a pin to cut rather than mark the surface, and are often used when cutting veneer parallel to an edge when installing inlay.
I could buy all the gauges I wanted, but getting all I wanted would cost a bit of cash, and the way things are I figured it might be cheaper (and funner!) to make them myself. Besides, I had all this brass stock laying around and also had this one, perfectly quartersawn piece of coco-bolo I have been hording since I found it years ago that was just begging to be used for some small tools just like these.

Sour Cream Banana Bars
- Yield 2 dozens
"This Sour Cream Banana Bar recipe was given to me by a friend years ago, and I have made these moist bars many times. They are especially good chilled."
- Bars:
- 1 1/2 cups granulated sugar
- 1 cup sour cream
- 1/2 cup margarine, softened
- 2 eggs
- 1 1/2 cups mashed bananas (about 3 large bananas)
- 2 teaspoons vanilla extract
- 2 cups all-purpose flour
- 1 teaspoon salt
- 1 teaspoon baking soda
- 1/2 cup chopped walnuts
- Frosting:
- 1/4 cup margarine
- 2 cups confectioners' sugar
- 1 teaspoon vanilla extract
- 3 tablespoons milk
- Preheat the oven to 350 degrees. Grease and flour a 15 x 10-inch baking dish. Cream together the granulated sugar, sour cream, and margarine. Mix in the eggs one at a time on low speed. Beat in the bananas and vanilla, scraping the sides of the bowl occasionally. Add the flour, salt, and baking soda. Beat on medium speed for 1 minute. Stir in the nuts. Spread the batter evenly into the prepared pan. Bake for 20 to 25 minutes, until the center is done. Set aside to cool.
- To prepare the frosting, lightly brown the margarine in a saucepan, stirring to prevent burning. When lightly browned, remove from the heat. Beat in the confectioners' sugar, vanilla, and milk. Pour over the bars.
Tips From Our Test Kitchen:Keep overripe bananas on hand in your freezer. Pull them out to thaw when the mood strikes to make these delicious bars.

Splint Care
Your doctor has applied a splint to rest and protect your injury. Splints can be made of plaster, fiberglass, or metal; they are used to treat fractures, sprains, tendonitis, and other injuries. Please keep your injury elevated to reduce swelling and pressure under your splint. If an elastic bandage has been used to hold the splint, it can be loosened for increased swelling or pain.
Try to keep your splint clean and dry. They can be used for weeks if needed to treat serious sprains, or minor fractures. Do not put objects under your splint to scratch yourself. Call your doctor right away if you have:
Increased pain or pressure around the injury.
Numbness, tingling, or painful, cool toes or fingers.
Call your doctor for follow up care as recommended, especially if your splint becomes too soft or broken before you are healed.

Is this a narcotic?
Is this a narcotic?
-:¦:-•:*'""*:•.-:¦:-•*Welcome to MyMigraineConnection!*•-:¦:-•:*'""*:•.-:¦:-
Fioricet 50-325-40 contains:
• 50mg of butalbital
• 325mg or acetaminophen
• 40mg of caffeine
It's difficult to give you a "yes" or "no" answer on this. The word narcotic is usually used to refer to a medication that is an opioid or contains an opioid, which this form of Fioricet does not. If you go strictly by definitions, it probably would be considered a narcotic. The definition is "a drug (as codeine, methadone, or morphine) that in moderate doses dulls the senses, relieves pain, and induces profound sleep but in excessive doses causes stupor, coma, or convulsions."
The butalbital in Fioricet is a barbiturate. A barbiturate is "any of various derivatives of barbituric acid (as phenobarbital) that are used especially as sedatives, hypnotics, and antispasmodics."
Hope this helps answer your question.

Yes in theory you should, as long as the netgears are fully manageable and support them, although i have seen slight issues with this before.
Hi Guys,
We currently have two networks within the school, one for in school and one in the boarding houses.
Now, we would like to get the school network onto the boarding house switches.
The school network switches are HP 2510G and the students are on Netgear 7 series generally.
With VLANs being an 802. protocol, are you able to do VLANS between these brands ?
Yes in theory you should, as long as the netgears are fully manageable and support them, although i have seen slight issues with this before.
I was thinking there might be some issues. The Netgears are stacked but I'm pretty sure the top one is managed. I'd only be looking at a few ports on the academic network.
We have a mix of hp and netgear and other switches (HP v1910, netgear gs724/gs748, and many others). VLANs play allright together, but different switches seem to have different methods to configure them. With the netgears we have, you can set the pvid (the vlan id added to inbound packets) separately from the port membership for outbound packets. the 1910s do the sensible thing and make them the same. Once the packets are tagged, they should be handled the same by the different switches.
You might have to work at getting the configuration right, but once set up, you shouldn't get any further problems. I would set up a separate test network and play with the configuration until your happy.
I would start by making a clear diagram of what you want to achieve.

do you ever feel like you're just sort of
like all your friends go out and do things and get into relationships and like people that like them back and have fun and do stupid things with their best friends and instead of doing all that you're just sort of this mildly entertaining thing that people take an interest in once in a while but they wouldn't really care if it was gone
like you just sort of exist but you don't really mean anything

They got you to turn
against yourself. To make
you believe that you are
no one of importance.
Just yesterday you began
to feel at ease in your
own body. To feel comfort
being stuck inside
a layer of skin that you
know you can never
free yourself from.
This is how they
get you to go against
yourself. They tell you
that you will never
be someone who is
worth remembering.
Don't let them think
that you are broken,
or that you are
too weak to carry on.
You are a vision
of recovery, and don't
let them convince you
She wears all black
just like her soul
yet her heart is made of gold.
And even though I never
asked her to, she takes
care of me. Handles me
with caution, and speaks
to me with dedication
on her tongue. She is
a vision of perfection,
a sight that is too precious
to be taken for granted.
When I look at her, I know
that everything I have
ever wanted is within
my reach. And when I
touch her, I know that I
will always be safe
in her arms.

From the article: Is Thanksgiving Day a Good Idea For Sikhs?
Thanksgiving Day in America is a traditionally a time of reflection and feasting, often manifesting an expression of gratitude in the communal sharing of bounty. In Sikhism, the traditions which are identified with Thanksgiving are a way of life which go on year round, ideally with every breath, thought and deed. No matter one's outlook on life there are times when it can be challenging to have an attitude of gratitude. Counting one's blessings is a sure way to experience an uplift of spirit. What are you thankful for today? Share Your Thoughts
The Third Son of Guru Gobind Singhji Son
- I am thankful for having a wife because Guru Gobind Singh gave me my wife. Thank you Guru Gobind Singh. Bola Sonia sat sri akal
- —Guest Tony Chauhan
- I am thankful for my 2 arms and 2 legs. I am thankful for being healthy. I am thankful for the plate of food I get everyday. I am thankful for the education I get. Other children suffer because of where they are standing now, so everyone should be thankful for what they have, even if they just have 1 foot, 1 eye, 1 arm. God made us the way we are for a reason. God didn't make us this way so we could fight and make the wrong decision. What I found is that money is what makes this world run, without money you cant get anywhere in life. So get your eduction no matter how long you have to wait. I am only 11 years old and understand all of this. I am ashamed of the people on the road that are drunkies. Those people would have never been like that if they took there education seriously. If I am only 11 and I understand this you should to.
- —Guest Sanjana
- My ancestors didn't sail with the Mayflower, but remained here, so no Thanksgiving day and no thanks neither, lol !
- —Guest Gattina
Giving Thanks
- I am thankful for a roof over my head and food to eat. My husband and I have lost our home in the financial disaster and my family has allowed us to live in their home. I will always remember this kind deed. I am looking forward to helping others in need when my finances are stable. It is a gift to help others, especially during the holidays. happy thanks giving to all!
- —Guest Mary
Everyday is a day to be thankful for.
- The chance to live, to eat well, to serve and to help others is what I am thankful for. I am sad that I am limited with what I can do for others but I am hoping that it will only change in time.
- —Guest Guri Singh
- Happy Thanksgiving to you. May you have a wonderful time eating and celebrating with your friends and family. Sometimes we forget what is important to us. I am thankful that my family and I are healthy and is able to get up each morning to start another adventure.
- —Guest AVCr8teur
Thankful for Family - and Stitchery!
- I am so thankful for my family which includes not only my relatives, but also my furbabies and all my online friends! I am also thankful for my cross stitch projects. They are the best tension relievers and therapy I know and I love all my stitchy friends too!
- —Connie G.
More Than Can Be Counted
- For all the little things, like fuzzy doggy ears, and all the huge things we tend to forget, like refrigeration, strong & loving family relationships, and the ability to experience *everything*.
- —BethPete
- I try to make it a daily practice of listing each day at least 3 things I am grateful for. This started as a sort of therapy after the murderous events of 1984. I have kept it up over the years. I wish I had my early lists, but sadly, they have been lost. I remember writing about birds singing and the feeling of wind on my face. The point is, however, that each day should be Thanksgiving day, not just the fourth Thursday in November. I rarely do anything special aside from cooking an especially delicious dinner. I certainly see nothing wrong with Sikhs celebrating, as long as they do so within the Sikh Rehat Maryada, the Sikh Code of Conduct. Of course, Khalsa should never knowingly break Marydad or, most especially their Khalsa vows. Be gracious, if possible, of course, but those vows must not be broken. Be thankful and remain in chardi kala!
- —simayanan
Gratitude Is My Attitude
- Gosh, what don't I have to be grateful for? We become so jaded, everyday miracles seem like small potatoes, so that's where I'll begin. I'm thankful for the sun, for leaves turning colors, for a juicy, red tomato, knees that can still support me, for my colleagues at About.com.
- —Barb.Rolek
I'm glad
- As an agnostic, I don't give thanks (thanks to whom?), but I do consciously enjoy all of my on-line friends.
- —Guest Kevin C42

Absolutely refreshing! Mango Ceylon has a much lighter body than the Blackberry Sage, but it still has an amazing aroma and flavor. It has a very subtle sweetness to it that makes this beverage very easy to drink (especially if you are new to fine teas). The tea flavor is very tasty, using a fine brew of black tea that will surely quench anyone's thirst for a robust tea. Mango is a perfect compliment to this fine tea. It not only adds a tangy burst of fruit flavor, but it adds a flower-like aroma to an already aromatic tea.

A.J. Green went down in practice yesterday and all of Who Dey nation held their breath. It took Green some time to get up, but he was able to get off of the field on his own power. He will be sitting out a few days to heal up, but the injury wasn't anything significant.
The injury is diagnosed as a knee bruise. He will be back on the field soon enough to tear up defensive backs.
If A.J. Green were to go down for any significant amount of time, it would be a devastating injury for that team. He makes that offense move. He makes Andy Dalton a better quarterback. He makes the running game better. He is just that dang awesome.
Good news. He will be back.

I'll be giving a public lecture at the Santa Fe Art Institute Monday July 2nd:
I'm speaking at City Hall (!) in Kitchener, Ontario on May 22nd.
Tuesday May 22, 2012 – 7:00 pm
Kitchener CIty Hall Rotunda
200 King St. W., Kitchener
Steve Lambert is an American artist who works in a variety of media, commonly using print and communication vehicles as a means of developing a dialogue with his audience. He has produced interactive scoreboards, letterpress posters, signage and postcards. One of Lambert's best known projects is The New York Times "Special Edition", which announced the end of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan following the 2008 American election.
Lambert uses art as a bridge to connect uncommon, idealistic, or even radical ideas with everyday life. He carefully crafts various conditions where these ideas can be discussed with people to produce a meaningful exchange. Often this means working collaboratively with the audience, bringing them into the process or even having them physically complete the work.
He has collaborated with well-known art collectives such as the Yes Men and the Graffiti Research Lab, and other organizations such as Greenpeace. He is also the founder of the Center for Artistic Activism, the Anti-Advertising Agency, Add-Art (a Firefox add-on that replaces online advertising with art) and SelfControl (which blocks grownups from distracting websites so they can get work done).
There will be a complimentary shuttle from downtown Guelph to Kitchener for the Steve Lambert lecture, departing from 193 Woolwich St. (Macquarie House) at 6:00 PM. Seats will reserved on a first-come, first-served basis. Please visit http://stevelambertbus.eventbrite.com or contact Danica Evering at email@example.com or 519 836 7300 x 103 to reserve your seat.

The Big ideas in Art and Culture Lecture Series is a joint production of CAFKA and Musagetes. CAFKA is about making art happen in the public spaces of this community, introducing contemporary art to new audiences and engaging the public in new ways of seeing their city. The Musagetes Foundation has been active around the world gathering artists and public intellectuals to consider variations on the theme of social transformations through creative and artistic interventions. These open forums, or cafés, explore and apply new ideas in creative practices, social change and community development. Musagetes Cafés have taken place in London, England, 2007, Barcelona, Spain, 2008, and Rijeka, Croatia, 2010. Future cafés are being planned to take place in Sudbury, Ontario, 2011 and in Lecce, Italy, 2012. CAFKA gratefully acknowledges the support of the Ontario Trillium Foundation, the City of Kitchener, The Kitchener and Waterloo Community Foundation – Musagetes Fund, the Canada Council for the Arts, and the Ontario Arts Council in helping to make this lecture series possible.
On April 28, 2012, Members of Occupy Boston's arts working group, CASA, will host a gathering with artist and cultural provocateur Steve Lambert. Taking place at Samsøn, this event will be an opportunity for Lambert and the greater Occupy community to connect over questions of messaging, humor, culture jamming, and creative activism as the movement heads into the coming seasons.
Lambert's work includes "The New York Times Special Edition" produced with the Yes Men and many other groups in 2008 and distributed in cities across the US carrying headlines such as "Iraq War Ends," "Maximum Wage Law Passed" and "All Public Universities to Be Free." More recently, Lambert's gigantic, sign/scoreboard "Capitalism Works For Me,True/False" is touring the country posing a personal question its viewers can vote on.
The Present Group writes of Lambert's work, "These bits of provocation get people thinking (and talking) about how they act, what they believe, how they imagine the world around them, and how they imagine it could be." With the School for Creative Activism, Lambert has taught workshops that infuse creative tactics with traditional community organizing and civic engagement.
Lambert, along with painter Josh Luke, produced signs for many of the tents in the Dewey Square occupation in October 2010. Intending to produce change, he's given simple advice for how to do more than "raise awareness" while maintaining a positive attitude. Join us on the 28th as we recharge our creative batteries and rehash the radical. Spring is upon us. There is difficult and enjoyable work to be done, absurd futures to dream up, and important questions to ask ourselves in the next stages of the Occupation. We think art and creative action should play a significant role in the shapes, forms, and modes of communication and performance employed in these next steps.

Transmediale has posted audio recordings of the 2012 panels. This recording is me talking about the Capitalism Sign at the "Zombie Play at the Ludic Salon."
This panel was a lot of fun. Some of the questions come from great folks like Dmytri Kleiner and Jacob Applebaum.
(By the way I say "extinct" when I meant "endangered")
You can get all the ludic salon recordings from this page on Soundcloud
This is the link to the Debugging and Rebooting panel, which got a little weird and would be difficult to understand without the video.
College students, take note: this summer I will be Visiting Faculty for the inaugural year of the New York Arts Practicum program.
New York Arts Practicum is a summer program in New York City where advanced undergraduates, recent graduates, and graduate students experientially learn artmaking and participate in intellectual culture outside of the art school.
I'm speaking at the Hemispheric Institute on April 19.
Steve Lambert made international news after the 2008 US election with The New York Times "Special Edition," a replica announcing the end of the wars in Iraq and Afghanistan and other good news. He has collaborated with groups from the Yes Men to the Graffiti Research Lab and Greenpeace. He is also the founder of the Center for Artistic Activism, the Anti-Advertising Agency, Add-Art (a Firefox add-on that replaces online advertising with art) and SelfControl (which blocks grownups from distracting websites so they can get work done). He is on the faculty of the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston. Steve will discuss making engaging, funny, relevant art and how it can help effect change.
Revolutionaries Live! (aka Creative Activism Thursdays) is co-sponsored by NYU Dean for Social Science, the Hemispheric Institute, the Yes Lab, the Humanities Initiative at NYU Working Research Group on Artistic Activism, CAA, and Not an Alternative. Speakers also attend following Yes Lab Friday.
Tomorrow morning I leave for Berlin with Victoria Estok for Transmediale 2012.
I'll be speaking at Crashed Economy: Debugging and Rebooting. About the talk/panel:
To face the current economical crisis means to question dualistic perspectives such as capitalism vs anti-capitalism as well as to imagine a sustainable network of values in which accumulation of growth and precarity are substituted by a grassroots ecology of sharing built on an increasing capacity for sociability. This event presents two sets of projects which question the notion of capitalism through direct intervention and collective reflections proposing an exodus from proprietary money and trade regulation through distributed commons and practices of social networking.
In Part 1: What Capitalism? Steve Lambert (us) and Daniel Garcia Andujar (es) show how one can critique the concept of capitalism in times of crisis through direct interventions and ludic practices. Elanor Colleoni (it/dk) will act as respondent.
Victoria is in the reSource program.
Stephen Duncombe is an Associate Professor at the Gallatin School and the Department of Media, Culture and Communications of New York, where he teaches the history and politics of media.
Steve Lambert was a Senior Fellow at New York's Eyebeam Center for Art and Technology from 2006-2010, developed and leads workshops for Creative Capital Foundation, and is faculty at the School of the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston.
Many artists want to create work that has a social impact. Unfortunately most artists don't learn how to do this. Drawing upon their own artistic and activist practice, their ongoing research project interviewing activist artists, and drawing from contemporary examples, Duncombe and Lambert will lay out common fallacies held by the "political artist." They still believe, however, that thinking, acting, and creating artistically is essential for effective activism, and will present strategies for sidestepping common pitfalls of political art-making and lessons in making political art work.

You are cordially invited to attend the upcoming MFA Graduate Program Colloquium for spring 2011.
WHEN: Monday April 4th, 10:30 AM – 4:30 PM
WHERE: The Remis Auditorium at the Museum of Fine Arts located at 465 Huntington Avenue, Boston, MA.
TOPIC: This colloquium intends to facilitate a rigorous conversation at the point where performance and appropriation tactics intersect our technologically mediated public sphere. With interest in eliciting a healthy range of perspectives, faculty member Nate Harrison and MFA graduate student Jordan Tynes have invited a group of artists and activists to present their projects and working methods. Each representing a model for critical cultural practice today, all share in common an interest in the infiltration of the apparatuses of mass media and its construction of a public towards renewed senses of autonomy and agency.

Health & Pregnancy
Women Need a Folic Acid Fix
Oct. 3, 2000 -- Researchers in South Carolina have shown that encouraging women to take folic acid before and during pregnancy reduces their risk of having a baby with birth defects called neural tube defects. Experts recommend that all women of child-bearing age get enough folic acid and that women who want to become pregnant have their folic acid levels tested by a physician.
Neural tube defects occur when part of the maturing nervous system of the developing child, from which both the brain and spinal cord develop, fails to close completely during the first month of pregnancy. Muscle and bone cannot grow across such a gap, causing some of the most serious birth defects, including conditions known as spina bifida, anencephaly, and encephalocele.
In the U.S., about 2,500 babies are born each year with neural tube defects, which is about six in every 10,000 live births. Most often, unborn children affected by neural tube defects do not even survive to birth, and those who do are usually extremely disabled. Although neural tube defects can have a genetic cause, it is known that women who take enough folic acid, or vitamin B-12, especially before pregnancy and during the first month of pregnancy, are far less likely to have a child affected by one of these devastating conditions.
Lead author of the study, Roger E. Stevenson, MD, tells WebMD that his is the first U.S. study of its size to show that if women take folic acid, they are less likely to have children who are affected by neural tube defects. It confirms the role of folic acid in healthy pregnancies that has been demonstrated in studies in other countries. Stevenson is director of the Greenwood Genetic Center in Greenwood, S.C. The study appears in the October issue of the journal Pediatrics.
Stevenson and his team monitored the number of pregnancies that occurred in South Carolina from 1992 to 1998 and identified those affected by a neural tube defect. During this same time, public awareness campaigns were used to inform women of reproductive age about the importance of folic acid, and women who had had children affected by a neural tube defect in the past were advised to take folic acid during any following pregnancy.
Over the six-year monitoring period, the researchers found that the number of women taking folic acid around the time of conception and during pregnancy increased dramatically. Similarly, the number of pregnancies affected by neural tube defects decreased significantly.
The March of Dimes recommends that a woman capable of becoming pregnant consume 400 micrograms of folic acid from foods or supplements daily.
According to expert Satty Gill Keswani, MD, folic acid can be found in some foods, such as green leafy vegetables, but most Americans eat too much frozen and processed foods to get enough of it from diet alone. She recommends that everyone eat more unprocessed vegetables, but that women who are or planning to become pregnant need the extra boost folic acid supplements provide. These women should see their doctor, who can perform blood tests that will tell just how much folic acid, as well as other vitamins and minerals, they need to take. Keswani is a reproductive endocrinologist at St. Barnabas Medical Center in Livingston, N.J., and director of the Livingston Fertility Center.

im still in between kinda accepting my body and wanting to starve myself for weeks i dont know
(via perksofattendinghogwarts)
Every day I struggle between "I wanna look good naked" and "treat yo self."
(via -withallmyheartandsoul)
I had a shit morning, which resulted in me going to work wearing my glasses, and only bronzer and mascara.
Despite feeling haggard, I got one of the best compliments ever from one of my coworkers.
He said "I find you just as pretty, if not prettier, wearing barely any makeup."
Call me shallow, but I think that is a lovely thing to say to another human.
'Fat' is usually the first insult a girl throws at another girl when she wants to hurt her.
I mean, is 'fat' really the worst thing a human being can be? Is 'fat' worse than 'vindictive', 'jealous', 'shallow', 'vain', 'boring' or 'cruel'? Not to me; but then, you might retort, what do I know about the pressure to be skinny? I'm not in the business of being judged on my looks, what with being a writer and earning my living by using my brain…
I went to the British Book Awards that evening. After the award ceremony I bumped into a woman I hadn't seen for nearly three years. The first thing she said to me? 'You've lost a lot of weight since the last time I saw you!'
'Well,' I said, slightly nonplussed, 'the last time you saw me I'd just had a baby.'
What I felt like saying was, 'I've produced my third child and my sixth novel since I last saw you. Aren't either of those things more important, more interesting, than my size?' But no – my waist looked smaller! Forget the kid and the book: finally, something to celebrate!
I've got two daughters who will have to make their way in this skinny-obsessed world, and it worries me, because I don't want them to be empty-headed, self-obsessed, emaciated clones; I'd rather they were independent, interesting, idealistic, kind, opinionated, original, funny – a thousand things, before 'thin'. And frankly, I'd rather they didn't give a gust of stinking chihuahua flatulence whether the woman standing next to them has fleshier knees than they do. Let my girls be Hermiones, rather than Pansy Parkinsons.

How to talk to your daughter about her body, step one: don't talk to your daughter about her body, except to teach her how it works.
Don't say anything if she's lost weight. Don't say anything if she's gained weight.
If you think your daughter's body looks amazing, don't say that. Here are some things you can say instead:
"You look so healthy!" is a great one.
Or how about, "you're looking so strong."
"I can see how happy you are – you're glowing."
Better yet, compliment her on something that has nothing to do with her body.
Don't comment on other women's bodies either. Nope. Not a single comment, not a nice one or a mean one.
Teach her about kindness towards others, but also kindness towards yourself.
Don't you dare talk about how much you hate your body in front of your daughter, or talk about your new diet. In fact, don't go on a diet in front of your daughter. Buy healthy food. Cook healthy meals. But don't say "I'm not eating carbs right now." Your daughter should never think that carbs are evil, because shame over what you eat only leads to shame about yourself.
Encourage your daughter to run because it makes her feel less stressed. Encourage your daughter to climb mountains because there is nowhere better to explore your spirituality than the peak of the universe. Encourage your daughter to surf, or rock climb, or mountain bike because it scares her and that's a good thing sometimes.
Help your daughter love soccer or rowing or hockey because sports make her a better leader and a more confident woman. Explain that no matter how old you get, you'll never stop needing good teamwork. Never make her play a sport she isn't absolutely in love with.
Prove to your daughter that women don't need men to move their furniture.
Teach your daughter how to cook kale.
Teach your daughter how to bake chocolate cake made with six sticks of butter.
Pass on your own mom's recipe for Christmas morning coffee cake. Pass on your love of being outside.
Maybe you and your daughter both have thick thighs or wide ribcages. It's easy to hate these non-size zero body parts. Don't. Tell your daughter that with her legs she can run a marathon if she wants to, and her ribcage is nothing but a carrying case for strong lungs. She can scream and she can sing and she can lift up the world, if she wants.
Remind your daughter that the best thing she can do with her body is to use it to mobilize her beautiful soul.

I've been really fucking disgusted with the way I look lately…
and I hate that I hate myself.
I'm pathetic.
But, even if you're not fat, if you're a woman, you're probably still so caught up with your toxic weight shit that you can't even see straight. During my working life I can't tell you how many times I've been part of these ridiculous workplace group diets. Almost all of the participants have been women. Sometimes they even try to bribe one another with money. They all put in ten dollars on the first week and whoever loses the most wins the pool at the end of 4 months, or whatever it is. Look, I'm like you. I've done it too. And at a perfectly normal, healthy weight I've done it. All because of a sick, shitful, ugly little voice in the back of my head that tells me I ought to be smaller.
And that's the rub, right there. Exactly why do we want to be smaller? What exactly is the appeal of being smaller? How does it benefit us? Does it make us better mothers? Better students? Better lovers? Better artists? Scientists? Friends? Does it make us more badass badasses?
No, no, no, no, no. You must see that it doesn't. It doesn't do anything but make us smaller.
Babies and puppies are small. So are dimes and Skittles. You're a fucking woman. A woman! You are entitled to occupy as much fucking space as you like with your awesomeness, and you better be suspicious as fuck of anybody who tells you differently.
Why, ladies? Why must we continue to whittle ourselves down? Who is it for? What is it for? You can walk through a certain aisle at the pharmacy or at the grocery store and see the language of diminishment all over the packaging for weight loss aids of all kinds. "Shrink your waist." "Lose inches off your thighs." "Slim down." "Get skinny."
How about "Grow your mind." "Increase your confidence and productivity." "Beef up your knowledge." "Enlarge your scope of asskicking."
That's a valid message for women and girls: grow, expand, branch out, open up, get bigger, wider, faster, stronger, better, smarter. Go up not down. Get strong, not skinny.
You are not here to get smaller. You are not here to have a thin waist and thighs. You are not here to disappear. You're here to change the world! Change the fucking world, then! Forget about "losing a few pounds." Think about what you could be gaining instead.

we shouldn't look at other people's bodies and say "perf" like who the fuck are we to judge what a perfect body is?? you can't see anything except skin you don't know what goes on in there. do you think lobsters look at each other like damn I wish I looked like that lobster?? no

estimated construction cost for FASR is $100 million, and operations will cost $4 million per year, both of which the panel assumes will be evenly split between the National Science Foundation's (NSF's) Division of Astronomical Sciences (AST) in the Directorate for Mathematical and Physical Sciences and the Division of Atmospheric and Geophysical Sciences (AGS) in NSF's Directorate for Geosciences.
CCAT (formerly the Cornell-Caltech Atacama Telescope) will provide the capability for rapid surveys of the submillimeter sky, essential for the optimal exploitation of ALMA. CCAT is a 25-m-diameter telescope located on a very high, dry site and equipped with megapixel detector arrays; it will address many of the questions posed by the Science Frontiers Panels. CCAT is estimated to cost $110 million, with $33 million coming from NSF. NSF's share of operating expenses would be about $7.5 million per year, a net increase of $5 million per year, assuming that current funding for the Caltech Submillimeter Observatory (CSO) is recycled.
FASR and CCAT have equal, and very high, priority in this category, but different phasing.
Studies of the CMB have delivered much of the most valuable information about the universe at large. The panel strongly recommends a continued robust program at the current funding levels of ground-based CMB studies, with multiple approaches that are driven by individual investigators.
An expansion of the Allen Telescope Array to 256 antennas (ATA-256) would significantly improve astronomers' ability to find and study transient sources and to detect gravitational waves by timing an array of pulsars. The ATA can test ideas needed for the development of next-generation telescopes such as the Square Kilometer Array (SKA). The estimated cost of construction for the expansion is about $44 million. The panel recommends that NSF explore collaboration with other agencies and private foundations for the enhancement of ATA-42.
The National Radio Astronomy Observatory (NRAO) telescopes (and soon, ALMA) provide a broad range of scientific capabilities needed to answer many of the SFP questions, but all will need instrument development, especially the completion of frequency coverage, multibeam capability, and electronics improvements to enable much higher data rates. The panel recommends a sustained and substantial program to enhance the NRAO telescopes and ALMA capabilities, amounting to $90 million for NRAO and $30 million for the U.S. share for ALMA over the decade.
The Arecibo telescope is essential for science with pulsars, which test general relativity, constrain the neutron star equation of state, and may lead to the detection of gravitational waves. The telescope can also make the deepest maps of galactic and extragalactic neutral hydrogen currently possible. A future multi-pixel upgrade would dramatically speed up surveys at centimeter wavelengths. The panel

Making mobile users' lives easier with Apple Map Links
Apple is little known for making developers' lives easier BUT I've just discovered something pretty neat! I find myself sometimes having to send out email newsletters with embedded links to addresses on Google maps.
It turns out I needed to do no such thing! Apple already has a solution that works perfectly. Map Links.
You can basically construct a URL like this:
On the iPhone it opens the native Apple Maps app, on Android it opens Google Maps, on a Mac it opens the Maps app and on Windows it opens Google Maps in the browser.

Amazing job on this editor hazard It makes playing single player a million times better.
Just trying to help it seems the editor is overlapping itself and the window for app settings has no way of closing.

Holiday Travel Advisory
Planning to travel this season? Here's how to stay happy and healthy en route.
As the busy holiday season approaches, thousands of airline travelers get ready to tackle the lines and delays. Thousands more are braving the trains and buses and automobiles to be with family and friends. But beware, travel today is fraught with long delays at check-in, on the tarmac, and on the road.
For people with serious health problems like diabetes and heart disease -- and for young children -- all this can be a real ordeal. If you don't plan properly, it could even be life-threatening.
How to keep everyone healthy and happy during those long travel hours? WebMD sought the advice of a few experts.
If you have diabetes...
Eat close to your regular schedule. "That's especially important for diabetics," says Inyanga Mack, MD, assistant professor of family and community medicine at Temple University School of Medicine in Philadelphia.
Since meal service has been discontinued on most flights, getting to the airport early leaves you time to eat before the flight. Also, bring along healthy snacks to offset the risk of hypoglycemia, whether on the road or in the air, she tells WebMD.
Wear an appropriate medical alert bracelet. Carry the name of an emergency contact person and your primary care physician, Mack suggests. Keep a list of your medications and doses, so someone can get access to your medication in an emergency.
Take medications with you, not packed in luggage. Carry a few days' supply of your medications. Then if luggage gets lost, or if you're trapped in the airport or on the plane for extended periods, your health won't be in jeopardy. Always eat and take medications according to your regular schedule, even if everything else is in turmoil.
Make sure medications are properly labeled. All prescriptions must have the pharmaceutical label or professionally printed label identifying the drug. If you are not permitted to board with your medications and supplies, ask to speak with the airport's FAA representative or the security director. You may even want to call ahead of time to be sure you can get on board with what you need.
FAA requirements: Diabetic people carrying syringes and/or needles must also carry the injectable medication. Diabetic people traveling in the U.S. can bring syringes and other such equipment in carry-on bags, but insulin vials must have a professional, printed medication label. Better yet, keep insulin in its original box, since it has the pharmaceutical company label. Needles must be capped. The glucose meter must have the manufacturer's name on it. Injectable glucagon should also be in its original plastic kit with the pre-printed pharmaceutical label.
If you have heart disease...
Don't get dehydrated or fatigued. Get plenty of rest, says Ronald Krone, MD, professor of medicine and cardiology at Washington University School of Medicine in St. Louis. "If you feel fatigued, find someone to carry your bags. Don't rush. Getting around a long airport can be like a stress test. Carry as little as possible on board, so you're not struggling to lift something overhead. Minimize your workload."

Moving 32bit XP clients to windows 7 on a server 2008 domain - can anyone point me to a simple guide for creating mandatory profiles for Windows 7? Thanks
in my experience dont it seems to me much faster logging on etc to give everyone a roaming profile and redirect everything (except appdata)
There's this method which I haven't tried as I went the official microsoft method of using sysprep.
You may also find this website helpful.
Should point out I've been using Mandatory profiles for student users for 2 1/2 years with few issues...
My own guide is on here somewhere if you can find it with a search. It doesn't use sysprep, creates a nice small profile, and is easy to update. Basically involves logging on as a user without GP restrictions, customising the profile, then moving that ntuser.dat to a share, renaming it to ntuser.man, and changing the permissions on the registry hive. When used in conjunction with redirected AppData, gives the best of both worlds IMO.
You need to make a local user account on a PC and then do the changes you want on it, Proxy, redirects and any other bits, then upload it from the PC to location on the server making sure you give the everyone rights when uploading (this is not copy and past) and then rename the Ntuser.dat to Ntuser.man and there you have it, you can then refine it by going into the regedit and changing bits in there i did do a post on the XP one it not that different
You could use roaming and restrict in AD the size of the profile
Hi All
Thanks for the advice so far, roaming profiles seem to give slow login issues so I will stick with mandatory profiles for the time being. I will give your suggestions a go and let you know how I get on.

Consider SE Portland as an option. The commercial strips of Belmont, Hawthorne, and Division have tons of great food options and more seem to keep coming.
Those areas also have good bus service straight into downtown. Tons of apts and condos being built there, too. I would think the new construction might be more accessible than the older homes and apts that are in the area.

I might recommend evoe - more so you can ramble through pastaworks (the adjoining gourmet grocery store which connects to the powells home and garden store).
also - I don't know if boyds has any shop locations in the city...albina press might be an option to consider near evoe.

There are a variety of places to eat all but you might want to check out EVOE for a late lunch or early dinner (it closes at 7pm) and might be in that nice but not too expensive pricepoint for your dinner. It is a casual dining space around the kitchen, which adjoins Pastaworks (gourmet market) which adjoins Powells Books cooking/garden store around 37th.

Rome - restaurants similar to SORPASSO?
Thank you for the Da Enzo recommendation - we tried it last night and it was wonderful. Traditional and simple, yes. But the staff wasn't wearing the black pant/white shirt attire that most trattoria staff wear. Our waiter had jeans, tshirt and a do-rag. For me, that made it feel less intimidating.

Reservations? Rome and Italy newbie
How key are reservations in Rome? If we are likely to eat early - will we need them?
I've been reading through the threads on Rome for my trip in mid May. Lots of great info. We've purchased one of the food apps (my friend says it is great). Staying in Trastevere. I'm hoping to keep meals under 30 euro/head - probably not going to do any fine dining this trip. Lastly I love vegetables (but not vegetarian). If there are any places that highlight vegetables really well?

text: Violent Movie Peddler Calls for Violent Movie Summit Print article Send a Tip by Christian Toto 26 Jul 2012 post a comment Harvey Weinstein knows a thing or two about film violence. His name is attached to some of the biggest offenders in screen history, from the "Kill Bill" series to the recent "Halloween" remake and "Piranha." Now, Weinstein is calling for a filmmaker's summit to discuss the impact movie violence has on society. "I think as filmmakers we should sit down -- the Marty Scoreseses, the Quentin Tarantinos, and hopefully all of us who deal in violence in movies -- and discuss our role in that," Weinstein said. Naturally, Weinstein blamed lack of gun control laws for the violence that rocked Aurora, Colo. last week, ignoring the fact that guns aren't permitted in the theater where the massacre took place. Weinstein's gesture is a typically liberal response, call it Feel Goodism 101. Does anyone think the likes of Tarantino or Scorsese are going to change their ways based on this horrific incident? Of course not. Scorsese's "Taxi Driver" influenced the mentally unstable John Hinckley, the man who shot President Ronald Reagan. Did the director throw in the towel on violent movies as a result? Just rent "The Departed" or "Gangs of New York" for a quick and brutal answer. This is all just posturing, a chance to keep the heat off Hollywood and insulate filmmakers from future finger pointing.

Doggie bags,
- h
- Henry Carroll Sep 4, 2009 01:35 PM
Have you ever given food to a panhandler on the street who was asking for money to buy food? How did it go? I've given some leftovers but I've never bought something just to give to the guy out on the street. I'm never sure what's the right thing to do.
Once in Amsterdam I tried to give left overs to a man asking for money to buy food (said I don't have money but would you like my fries). The man got angry yelled "I don't want food, I want money for drugs". In Bmore there was a guy who hung around D&Ds. People would give him change or bags of food. In Accra I gave some kids parts of a coconut because as I went to throw them out the bus window they asked for them.
Years ago in Philadelphia a homeless person near the train station was asking for money, and when I gave it to him he asked me if I'd buy him a meal for him at the Mcdonald's inside the station instead, because the staff there wouldn't let him inside. I gladly bought him a meal. But giving homeless people leftovers, probably not. I think that would be too insulting.
There is a good column and discussion of it here, in a Table Manners column from a good while ago....http://www.chow.com/stories/10736
re: originalfig
I once went to New Orleans for a wedding. A guy on Bourbon street asked me for a couple of bucks to get some whisky. I said How do I know you won't spend this on gumbo?
I will offer doggie bag unless its like Peter Luger or something like that. Sometimes accepted, sometimes refused. I guess it had to do with level of hunger.
I remember my father taking panhandler to the automat, sitting him down and buying a meal for him. He just walked away from his full tray.
I used to work in a hospital, and there were a lot of less fortunate folks who hung out in the area. I often gave half my lunch sandwich away, and it was always gratefully accepted. I think because I was splitting a meal, rather than disposing of leftovers, people weren't put off.
Rule of almsgiving: Never give what you yourself would not gladly receive from a complete stranger, and never give in a spirit that shows how good you are.
I've given people food that I've bought for myself... or if I see somebody who looks hungry near a store I'll ask them if they need something to eat and I'll go and buy them something, or preferably take them into the store with me and let them choose for themselves. I don't give people money except under extraordinary circumstances because there's no way to know what they're going to do with it, but if somebody needs food I'm happy to help them out. I don't think I'd hand someone my leftovers though... it's never occurred to me! I'd get them something fresh of their own if possible.
I've done this many times & never thought that I was insulting anyone. I usually do it when I am traveling and don't have a fridge in my hotel to put the food. I remember in Hong Kong my sister & I couldn't finish our entire Peking duck & gave the leftovers to someone on the street. I used to get treated to many high end restaurants in New York and San Francisco & always gave my leftovers to a street person. Only a couple of times has someone given me some lip about it probably because they were disappointed it wasn't booze. If I hadn't eaten in days I would welcome the food.

News : Samuels 'not well liked' - White
News : Warne fined $5000 for captaincy charade
News : Warne charged for breach of Code
News : Injured Samuels to be replaced by Alex Hales
Report : Warne and Samuels in ugly clash
News : Warne banned for one BBL match
Players/Officials: Marlon Samuels | Shane Warne
Series/Tournaments: Big Bash League
Teams: Australia | Melbourne Renegades | Melbourne Stars
Marlon Samuels has accused Shane Warne of "desperate" behaviour unbecoming for a legend of the game after escaping with a reprimand for his part in an ugly confrontation with Warne during the Big Bash League.
Samuels also called for BBL organisers to adopt a more disciplined attitude towards player behaviour to ensure the right example was set to the family audience that the tournament is so anxious to attract.
"It's not a war, it's a game," he said. "We're here to entertain people, but we're here to show love to one another as cricketers as well.''
Samuels was found guilty of unbecoming behaviour in his confrontation with Warne during the Melbourne derby between the Renegades and the Stars on January 6. He threw his bat away in frustration after he was struck on the body by a return from Warne, but the BBL's Code of Conduct commissioner John Price ruled that he had received "extreme provocation".
Samuels has been recuperating in Australia after suffering a severe facial injury when he failed to hook a bouncer from Lasith Malinga in the same match, but it was his stand-off with Warne which remained on his mind as he spoke about the affair for the first time to The Age.
''There were a lot of kids in the ground - Twenty20 is about family - so I couldn't afford to react in a very bad way," he said. "I was able to come out on top with him behaving the way that he was behaving. He's supposed to be a legend in Australia. What he did was give me the stripes so I am the legend now.''
Warne's aggressive outburst, which involved swearing, finger jabbing and tugging at Samuels' shirt, originated from an incident much earlier in the game in which Samuels seemed to have physically hampered David Hussey's attempts to take a second run. But the charge arising from that incident - that he "engaged in deliberate or inappropriate physical contact with a player or official" - was dismissed.
Warne served a one-game suspension, and was fined $4500, for his clash with Melbourne Renegades player Marlon Samuels. He was fined for a second time on Monday, this time for breaching the CA Code of Behaviour when he handed the captaincy to James Faulkner in an effort to avoid a ban for slow over rates in the semi-final against the Perth Scorchers.
Samuels said Warne had gone too far in trying to unsettle him. ''You can talk in a game and try to get into someone's head, but you don't get physical. That's what he did. He took it to the next level, which was just way overboard. He was a very desperate man doing desperate things. That's not the way you go about it when you're the face of the tournament with kids looking on.''
Samuels was infuriated that only Malinga among the Stars side checked on his welfare as he left the field bleeding from an eye wound, but he praised the support he had received from the Renegades and vowed that he would only represent them in the BBL. From the ugliest of incidents came a rare sign of player loyalty in the money-buys-all world of Twenty20.
"This tournament is a very good tournament, but whoever's running the tournament has to take some positive steps by showing more discipline,'' he said. ''The behaviour is poor. Every game you have people in other people's face. Remember, T20 is for family and kids. You're trying to pull a big crowd. It's not a boxing game."
The same BBL commission cleared Darren Berry, the Adelaide Strikers coach, of unbecoming behaviour when he confronted Samuels earlier in the tournament and offered a pointed critique of the West Indian's bowling action.
