Field Ecology with Tyveked Teachers
During a brief break from the torrential rain February brought, 19 teachers from all across the Bay Area joined staff from the California Academy of Sciences for a great day of outdoor ecology. The location: Jasper Ridge Biological Preserve, a 1,189-acre preserve dedicated to research and education, located in the eastern foothills of the Santa Cruz Mountains.
In the morning, we split up into small groups to explore the amazing diversity of ecosystems available at Jasper Ridge. Each group took charge of one ecosystem — creek, redwoods, oak woodlands, or chaparral — recording both qualitative and quantitative data at their field site. We observed plants, animals, rocks, and soil types; measured the temperature of both the soil and the air; and estimated canopy cover. In some locations, we even saw mortars and pestles, evidence of the Ohlone populations who once inhabited the area.
After plenty of time exploring our ecosystems, we headed back to the field station to share our experiences. Each group shared their data – painting a verbal picture of the environment in which they spent the morning.
Then, we contrasted quantitative data obtained from each field site. It was incredible to see the difference in temperature between ecosystems that were only a few hundred yards apart! What would account for such disparity? Canopy cover certainly plays a role in moderating temperature. Participants also learned how an area with a north-facing slope — which receives less direct sunlight than its south-facing counterpart in the Northern hemisphere, due to the tilt of the Earth on its axis — might be a bit on the cooler, moister side.
In the afternoon, we were joined by Professor Rodolfo Dirzo, an ecologist in Stanford's Biology Department. In a brief presentation, Rodolfo explained the basics of plant ecology research, and then we headed back outside to conduct our own vegetation transects. By now, you must have noticed our charming Tyvek suits. Although not standard for a field ecologist, we felt it necessary to protect ourselves from the abundance of poison oak in the area. (Even with the attractive neck-to-toe protection, I got a few spots of oak!). I'm not sure whether we look like scientists or like a HAZMAT clean-up crew, but we looked so good we couldn't help taking many pictures of the group!
We ventured into the forest to learn about the plants that comprise the oak woodland ecosystem. We measured out ten 50-meter transects, crawling on hands and knees to identifyall the woody plants falling within 2 meters of our transects. Back in the classroom, we performed data analysis, working through the statistics to determine the density, frequency and dominance of various species.
Real science. Real fun.

On Wednesday, the final of the First Four games of the 2014 NCAA Tournament will be played, and it's a match up of two 11-seeds as the Iowa Hawkeyes of the Big Ten will be taking on the Tennessee Volunteers of the SEC.
Iowa comes in having had themselves quite the up-and-down year. At one point, it seemed as if they may be the best team in the conference. However, once conference play got underway, they hot a bit of a skid. They're also reeling coming into this one, riding a three-game losing streak.
Tennessee, on the other hand, comes in with a lot of confidence, despite not winning the SEC title last week. They did, however, hang with the top-ranked Florida Gators and give them quite the scare. Even with the loss, this Tennessee team knows what it's capable of.
Here's how you can watch all the action live on Wednesday:
Date: Mar. 19
Start Time: 9:10 PM ET
Location: Dayton, OH
Arena: University of Dayton Arena
Live Stream: March Madness Live
Who do you think comes away with the win in this one? Sound off with your thoughts in the comments below.

I love my Danish dough whisk. It is so much less expensive than a kitchen aide mixer.

Great for mixing high hydration breads. There is much less sticking to this whisk than a spoon or spatula, making for quicker, less messy, mix-up.
|Great! (5/5)

|The Danish Dough Whisk is the best baking tool since sliced bread! The day after I got it I put together croissants' white bread, giant blueberry muffins and Kaiser rolls. I can't believe how quickly the doughs and batters pull together without over mixing. My kitchen aid mixer will be collecting dust now. My muffins pulled together like magic and turned out twice as good as those store bought ones. Seems to allow me to use less flour too that I think makes my baked goods lighter and last longer in freshness. Today is more bread and giant cinnamon rolls. And the cost is half of eBay's. Thanks!

|I only keep good, quality tools in my kitchen. There is no more clutter than needed and this tool is absolutely strong, sturdy and does the job. It will have a permanent home here- I love it. Also, why do they call it Danish when the sticker reads made in Poland?

|The best whisk I've ever used (and I have quite a lot). I wasn't sure, if I need one more to my collection, but decided to give it a try. O boy, what a difference! I would say you need 10 times less effort to mix your dough, than using wooden or plastic one.
|Awesome Tool! (5/5)

|We have been using a Danish Dough whisk for nearly 20 years and love it. It's one of the few items that we recommend to the students at our baking school. the price is an exceptional value.

|Watching the video, it sure looks easy. Got mine yesterday and guess what, it is as easy as it looks! Just be sure and swish off the stuck dough and don't let it dry. All the curves are kind of hard to clean if you let it dry on.

The Science of Stress for Experience Life magazine.
Actually, it is rocket science.
The Science of Stress for Experience Life magazine.
Modern Toronto is giving away two Textbook Example prints. To win, just sign up for their newsletter!
Textbook Example is featured as today's Creative Agent on ModTO.
Here are five things that keep me inspired.
1. Look Around
A British series of shorts parodying science education programmes of the 1980s. The deadpan humour ranges from the preposterous (germs originated in Germany) to the plausible (made up lab equipment like the "Besselheim plate").
The colours, design, set, props, music and wardrobe is all period-perfect. You could easily mistake it for the real thing, and you'd never guess it was made in 2002.
Comedy inspires me because it plays on our expectations, weaves disparate ideas together, and mixes fact & fiction often revealing greater truths.
2. Monocle
My favourite magazine, Monocle covers global affairs, business, culture & design. They champion the little guy—the entrepreneur, the artisan, the craftsman, the do-ers and makers—as the real power of a country, the cultural currency.
The writing is smart, the design is timeless and the printing is beautiful.
An animated television series inspired by 80s staples like Jonny Quest, The Hardy Boys and G.I. Joe, set amongst crumbling modernism and the broken dreams of the jet age.
I love everything about this show: failed super scientists, licensed arch-enemies, unionized costumed henchmen, unhelpful helper robots, super modernist labs, ridiculous secret lairs, and countless pop culture references.
4. The Visual Display of Quantitative Information
Written by Edward R. Tufte, a professor emeritus of political science, statistics and computer science, this is the bible for visually communicating data and information accurately and truthfully.
The book reads like a crotchety old man telling you to get off his lawn, if his lawn were charts and infographics. He rips "chart junk" to shreds and ridicules PowerPoint presentations. As grouchy as he sounds, he's absolutely right every step of the way.
The book is beautifully designed and taught me a lot about accuracy and rigour when creating information illustrations.
5. Rushmore
I love director Wes Anderson's design sense, taste in music and attention to detail, and Rushmore has to be my favourite film of his.
Every time I watch it, I'm inspired by all the minutiae, Rushmore Academy's insignia, Max Fischer's calling card, the Jacques Cousteau book, Dr. Guggenheim's office, the Perfect Attendance and Punctuality awards, everything.
And Bill Murray's in it, so how can you go wrong?

Economy of Errors
timothy posted more than 12 years ago | from the exorcize-for-the-reader dept.110
Andrew Marlatt, the mind behind the insidious, sarcastic SatireWire, has finally gone Onion. Fans of that fine news source, in fact, are probably the first ones who should check out this new compendium -- 183 magazine-size pages -- of SatireWire stories. SatireWire is a deadpan Fortune/Forbes/CIO Magazine (with a touch of Adbusters) to the Onion's USAToday/Newsweek/Times. The book is called Economy of Errors, and puts a virtual bathroom library of stories from BusinessMonth Weekly (published semiannually every day) into one volume. (Read on for the rest of my review.)First, I grinned. The pin-headed suit pictured on the cover of Economy of Error (against a backdrop of sensible, neutral mottled gray) would have been right at home on the cover of a conventional business magazine, and with a different headline would probably even have made perfect sense -- this sense of ritualized news interchangeability is the same one that The Daily Show has been successfully mocking for years. Marlatt has a keen sense of the business-cheerleader media culture's inertia-driven , obsessively imitative tone and style, and apes both well throughout the book in a patois familiar to anyone reduced to buying magazines in airport news-stands
While parody sites draw their subject matter from whatever their creators find worthy of skewering, the most famous obvious comparison (The Onion) is basically a general news source, for a certain value of "news." The stories in Economy of Errors are (you guessed it) more about the Nu-Economy, and swipes at the buzzword laden, sense-deprived world of corporate idiocy and technological myopia -- the world of new startups, old-line companies pretending to be startups, last-year's startups pretending to be old-line companies and so on, not to mention dangerous "Click Houses" cropping up in the suburbs.
After I grinned, I started chuckling, then really laughing. "CDNow Wins Patent for Loss-Based Revenue Model." "Manufacturers' Lobby Says Small Children Defective.""Yahoo! beats Analysts' Estimates, Dogs."
I particular enjoyed the piece titled "Judge Denies Bias Against 'Guilty Microsoft Bastards,'" which quotes Judge Thomas Penfield Jackson explaining that his rulings in the Microsoft trial over which he presided were fair, and that he was never biased against "those guilty, lying bastards." Or, pick your poison, "Microsoft Says Linux Has No Future, So Linux Firms Will Stop." Say, these headlines are probably good for another 3 to 5 years at least!
Without giving away too much, I think you can safely read these headlines, too:
- "House Sends Spam Bill to Senate; Senate Spam Filter Deletes It"
- "Shooting at Virtual Office Leaves 3 as Good as Dead, 6 Tantamount to Wounded"
- "Cubists Launch Unnavigable Web Site"
And of course, you can read these pieces on the SatireWire site as well, if you'd like too much to be given away anyhow.
Besides the stories (of which the full pagers ike "New HP Chief Can do Straddle Jump," seem to me much funnier than the shorter disinfo-blurb scattered throughout), there are a hefty selection of ads, most of which stick close enough to seeming real that I'd love to see a few scattered into a real business publication, just to see how many people notice. The spread on pages 88-89 of ads for various online trading companies certainly makes me laugh, or at least makes my face settle into a disturbing rictus. ("Thanks to Ameritrade, I quit my job as a bartender and bought that French villa I always wanted.") Maybe this is because I'm in that select group of people with a few handfuls of options on stock that costs far less than my special discounted strike price.
There are a few flat spots. For one thing, some of the parody ads no longer seem like parody, though this is hardly Marlatt's fault. (One ad shows the standard grey wash of newspaper stock listings, with enough stocks bolded to outline the familiar Absolut bottle shape, and says that the reason stocks will never fall is "Absolut Denial." Suddenly, too late -- it's like a mock gravestone for a living person, when the target suddenly drops dead.)
The same is true of two stories about the crisis that went away quietly, the Y2K bug. I wished as I was reading "Y2K survivors Devolve Ahead of Schedule" (about pre-survivors who started watching cannibalism tapes early) that each story was marked with a "first run on" date to establish more context. The undated story about the trend started by Microsoft Bob could use some context too, for when our children one day ask us seriously "What was Microsoft Bob?"
A few of the stories and ads in the book just didn't make me laugh, and small number didn't even stir a chuckle. Things like the full-pager for FamilyFetch.com ("Rent a life. Virtual Family in under an hour. Guaranteed.") seemed to take up valuable reading space, but didn't turn me on. YMMV.
On the other hand, both in the book and on the site, Marlatt makes a few forays into irreverent cultural and religious humor which may infuriate the culturally sensitive and leave those who would like to be culturally sensitive scratching their heads, not sure if they're allowed to laugh or not. I found myself in that second boat, but mostly laughed anyhow. Does anyone take real offense at a story suggesting that "Judiasm may be Y2K solution" because of the offset in years of the Jewish calendar versus the western one?
An impossible request for Marlatt when the next compilation comes out (as I'm sure it will) -- please include an index! Trying to look for an example of possibly offensive story, it would have been much faster to look for the word "Hinjew" in an index, but I think that story was too late to make the book, and is instead only on the site.
Now, I admit it -- I usually can't stand humor sites, because when they're not funny (to humor-impaired me), they're really not funny. There's no accounting for taste, which goes double for humor. This book, though, has spurred me to finally bookmark SatireWire and forced me to hand the book over temporarily to friends and family members prompted by my maniacal laughter to ask what I was reading. I look forward to the next round.
You can purchase Economy of Errors from bn.com, or from the SatireWire site. Slashdot welcomes readers' book reviews -- to see your own review here, read the book review guidelines, then visit the submission page.

The other night for dinner I made curried cauliflower soup. It was basically a cross between this cauliflower soup recipe and this recipe for curried cauliflower "popcorn." (May I just add that curried cauliflower "popcorn" is probably one of my very favourite recipes?!)
It was absolutely delicious. I'll definitely be making it again.
(Oh, and my sister took the pictures)
Curried Cauliflower Soup
1 large head cauliflower
1 teaspoon cumin
1 teaspoon curry powder
1/4 to 1/2 teaspoon salt
3 tablespoons olive oil, divided
salt and crushed red pepper flakes
1 small onion, diced (about 1 cup)
1 clove garlic, minced
3 tablespoons unsalted butter
4 cups vegetable broth
Place a rack in the upper third of the oven and preheat oven to 375 degrees F. Spread cauliflower florets on a large rimmed baking sheet and sprinkle with cumin seeds and curry powder. Drizzle with 2 tablespoons olive oil and toss to coat. Season with salt and crushed red pepper flakes. Place in the oven and roast until just tender, about 25 minutes.
In a large saucepan over medium heat, warm the last tablespoon of olive oil. Add the onions and cook, stirring occasionally, until softened and browned, about 5 minutes. Add the garlic and cook for 1 minute. Add the curried cauliflower to the pot along with the butter and broth. Simmer over medium heat until liquid has reduced some and the cauliflower is very tender, about 15 minutes.
In a blender, puree the soup until very smooth. Season with salt, pepper, and red pepper flakes for serving.
And there you have it: my favourite snack converted into a meal. What could be better than that?!

Set in sleeves and EASE
11 comments:
Easing sleeves is the most difficult part of garment making. This is a very clear tutorial that will help new sewers. Diana's sewing tutorials included a method that included sewing the ease stitching around the entire sleeve but putting the bulk the easing into the head. I've tried it and it works. What do you think?ReplyDelete
Thank you for posting this! This is also the way I do it, including moving the stitching line further up into the sleeve when the fabric resists too much to easing.ReplyDelete
I have a friend who's a beginner at garment sewing and who's been battling with setting in sleeves. I'm emailing her the link to your article :)
Thanks you ladies!ReplyDelete
Gail, I agree that would work perfectly well. Sometimes, when there seems to be too much fabric, you CAN ease some it in further down towards the armpit. It's only a matter of taking a look to see if you you like it. Sometimes I have gotten a nice flat results after sewing and pressing well, only to see puckery places after it has been worn and washed.
So, it really depends.
I am sure there is a lot to know about the weave of fabric and how that affects sewing. After all, many people say "don't sew wool gabardine; it is too hard to ease! Sew wool crepe instead!" My experience has been that wool crepe does perform beautifully and I have never tried gabardine.
This is how I try to do it. It usually works. When I am sewing the top of the cap that's when I start pulling and tugging, rather than "crowding." Crowding sounds a lot more graceful. I am going to try to get to grips with crowding.ReplyDelete
Karin, you remind me of one more thing. In the comment section to my previous post about ease, a few of us talked about putting the longer piece on the bottom. That way the feed dogs will pull more on the longer piece and do the easing for you.ReplyDelete
When I have tried that on sleeves, it was hit or miss. That's why I always sew with the gathered portion on top and crowd it as I am stitching. At least I can see whether or not I am sewing a pucker.
Some fabrics just don't want to ease, do they? The only time I use the pull up the gathers method is when a jacket is unlined. But, since I hate this, I don't use it for lined jackets, instead using the bias interfacing method.ReplyDelete
You ended up with a very nice result.
Great tutorial!ReplyDelete
Over the years I have tried every method that I've come across for easing in sleeves, yet I always come back to this method that you've shown. Only difference - I sew 2 rows of basting. Seems to give me a bit more control.
Beautiful colors! Your blog is amazing and very artistic. I did sew in high school, but very little since then. A pillow or two over the years. So what you do is impressive to me.ReplyDelete

Did you see the post on Fashion Incubator about easing sleeves? It duscusses in detail the whole problem with easing of sleeves/sleeve caps. It changed my whole understanding of what I had been taught. I followed FI's directions and I got PERFECTION.
- AnonymousJune 10, 2011 at 1:31 PM
Anonymous - good point! I agree with your recommendation of Kathleen's articles on her website Fashion Incubator. I have learned so much from her.ReplyDelete
In this case it was just a little weird because my sleeve pattern was tried and true. It had worked so well in other jackets.
Now that I think about it, I am sure I subconsciously remembered what I had learned from FI to come up with this solution! Shave off the sleeve head!
Robin (Blogger is acting so finicky I can't sign in!)
Huh, you know, I love the idea of just shaving a bit off of the shoulder to make the circumference a little bigger. I'm not actually sure if that's what you did, now that I think about it, but I always find that the shoulder width is always slightly too big for me (one of these days I'll correct for it), and shaving a bit would not only help reduce this, but aid in easing in sleeves when there seems to be too much fabric (or reducing the amount of gathers - I always find that there's too much designed into the patterns).ReplyDelete
I'm sorry that you ran into some snags easing in your sleeve, but thanks for sharing how you fixed it!
Thanks for visiting my blog and Happy Sewing, xo

UF researchers develop gene therapy that could correct a common form of blindness
24-01-2012: A new gene therapy method developed by University of Florida researchers has the potential to treat a common form of blindness that strikes both youngsters and adults. The technique works by replacing a malfunctioning gene in the eye with a normal working copy that supplies a protein necessary for light-sensitive cells in the eye to function. The findings are published in the Proceedings of the National Academy of Sciences online. Several complex and costly steps remain before the gene therapy technique can be used in humans, but once at that stage, it has great potential to change lives.
"Imagine that you can't see or can just barely see, and that could be changed to function at some levels so that you could read, navigate, maybe even drive — it would change your life considerably," said study co-author William W. Hauswirth, Ph.D., the Rybaczki-Bullard professor of ophthalmology in the UF College of Medicine and a professor and eminent scholar in department of molecular genetics and microbiology and the UF Genetics Institute. "Providing the gene that's missing is one of the ultimate ways of treating disease and restoring significant visual function."
The researchers tackled a condition called X-linked retinitis pigmentosa, a genetic defect that is passed from mothers to sons. Girls carry the trait, but do not have the kind of vision loss seen among boys. About 100,000 people in the U.S. have a form of retinitis pigmentosa, which is characterized by initial loss of peripheral vision and night vision, which eventually progresses to tunnel vision, then blindness. In some cases, loss of sight coincides with the appearance of dark-colored areas on the usually orange-colored retina.
"That was a great advance, which showed that gene therapy is safe and lasts for years in humans, but this new study has the potential for a bigger impact, because it is treating a form of the disease that affects many more people," said John G. Flannery, Ph.D., a professor of neurobiology at the University of California, Berkeley who is an expert in the design of viruses for delivering replacement genes. Flannery was not involved in the current study.
The X-linked form of retinitis pigmentosa addressed in the new study is the most common, and is caused by degeneration of light-sensitive cells in the eyes known as photoreceptor cells. It starts early in life, so though affected children are often born seeing, they gradually lose their vision.
"These children often go blind in the second decade of life, which is a very crucial period," said co-author Alfred S. Lewin, Ph.D., a professor in the UF College of Medicine department of molecular genetics and microbiology and a member of the UF Genetics Institute. "This is a compelling reason to try to develop a therapy, because this disease hinders people's ability to fully experience their world."

After a waiting a while with nobody being able to find me, I sent a text message to my dear friend Natalie.
The message read, "If you guys forget about me again, I'm going to go into your dreams and poo on everything you love."
Lovely friend, aren't I? I put my phone back into my pocket and went on waiting for someone to find me.
Something didn't quite seem right, however. I checked my phone again, only to realize that I had not sent the text message to Natalie.
I sent it to my dad.

Karnataka budget spares poor, taxes drinkers
Karnataka's budget for ensuing 2014-15 spares the common man from new taxes but taxes those who drink beer and domestically-produced liquor.
Presenting the budget, Chief Minister Siddaramaiah Friday told the legislative assembly here that additional excise duty on beer would be increased 13 percent to 135 percent to mobilise additional resources.
"I propose to increase the additional excise duty on beer to 135 percent from 122 percent on 330 ml bottled beer priced at Rs.125 and above," Siddaramaiah said in his two-hour long budget speech.
Similarly, licence fee on primary distilleries, Indian liquor manufacturing distilleries and breweries has been increased 50 percent and on retail liquor shops to Rs.3 lakh from Rs.1 lakh.
The budget, however, proposes to lower value added tax (VAT) to 5.5 percent on liquor sold in bars and restaurants in urban areas, clubs, lodging houses and star hotels so as to maximise collection on value addition.
"As part of rationalisation effort, I propose to increase luxury tax on minimum daily rent to Rs.750 from Rs.500," said the chief minister, who also holds the finance portfolio.
Besides sparing the people, especially traders from increase in commercial taxes, the budget has reduced stamp duty on immoveable properties to 0.25-0.75 percent on slab basis from the prevailing flat 5 percent of their value.
"Similarly, stamp duty on joint development agreements and powers of attorney will be reduced to two percent," Siddaramaiah said.
The budget also proposes to exempt stamp duty on alternate sites allotted by the Bangalore Development Authority (BDA) in lieu of the land freed from government control (denotified) and on sale deeds executed under the state government's aerospace policy 2013-23.
Stamp duty will be reduced to 0.5 percent from 1 percent on imported goods, which are exempted from customs duty.
In the transport sector, the budget proposes to levy Rs.500 per seat per quarter on motor cabs costing Rs.15 lakh and registered in other states but entering Karnataka by obtaining tourist vehicle permit instead of paying life time tax.
In response to representations from various quarters, the budget has extended tax exemption on paddy, rice, wheat, pulses and their products.
To provide relief to small growers, Siddaramaiah also proposed to reduce tax on scented arecanut powder other than mixtures to 5.5 percent from 14.5 percent.
There will also be no entry tax on ethanol for mixing with petrol.

Cheap Travel Accommodations is possible through Youth Hostel
Today with vast development in the economy people are not able to settle down in a single place. People travel to different destination may be for many reasons say in search of job, or due to some convenience and so on. Sometimes it is very difficult for the persons who travel along with a group or with family to abroad countries as the cost incurred in accommodation may result to huge expenditure. In such cases it is better to stay in hostel rather than hotels. If one wants to visit London then the best place for accommodation would be youth hostels in London. One of the beat and cheap stay hostels in London is the 'rest up London'.
The prices of the room are very cheap when compared to the hotels and various amenities are provided to the people who make a stay at the youth hostel. The hostel is located in central London which is one of the busiest places in the London and there are various sites seeing spots are nearer to the hostel which is in walkable distance. The hostel london is considered to be the best place for fun and they also provide option to the accommodators to take a tour to the nearby site seeing spots.
Today there are many websites which provide services to the customers in terms of accommodation place, site seeing and so on. But the best suited site for providing hostel facility is http://restup-london.co.uk were one can book the rooms before the travel. The various facilities which are offered by the hostels are free wifi connection in public areas, fully equipped with brand new toilets and showers, an internet station, a restaurant with espresso Bar, television, game and a laundry room, twenty four hour security with CCTV, a secured locker room and storage facility and so on. Basically the london hostels consists of six type of rooms say en-suite, basic, en-suite twin and double room and it also has quad room with six to eight bedroom. Thus, the hostels london is considered to be one of the modern and stylish homes for the youths with vast convenience.

Napa and Sonoma Feature
Russian River Valley AVA
As the Russian River winds its way from Mendocino to the Pacific Ocean, it carves out a valley that's a near-perfect environment for growing certain grape varietals. Because of its low elevation, sea fog pushes far inland to cool the soil, yet in summer it burns off, giving the grapes enough sun to ripen properly. Fog-loving Pinot Noir and Chardonnay grapes are king and queen in the Russian River Valley AVA, which extends from Healdsburg west to the town Guerneville. The namesake river does its part by slowly carving its way downward through many layers of rock, depositing a deep layer of gravel that in parts of the valley measures 60 or 70 feet. This gravel forces the roots of grapevines to go deep in search of water and nutrients. In the process, the plants absorb trace minerals that add complexity to the flavor of the grapes.

It is hard to believe that just a few years ago in 2011 Daniel Bard was then a top reliever in the game. A dominant setup man for the Boston Red Sox, he was armed with an array of pitches that darted and danced across the plate effortlessly. It appeared that Bard was on the cusp on becoming a dominant force in the league.
Flash forward three years and the story of Daniel Bard is no longer one of an elite relief pitcher, but someone who is trying his hardest to get back to the Major League level with the Texas Rangers.
This week Bard hit another major roadblock on his path back to the majors. His career now hangs in the balance once more, as the Rangers released the 28-year old right-hander on Tuesday.
At the time of his release, Bard was pitching for the Class A Hickory Crawdads of the South Atlantic League. He pitched in just four games this season. After the fourth game there was little reason for the Rangers to continue with the Daniel Bard project.
Through the four games that he pitched in, Bard retired just two of the eighteen hitters he faced. He finished with an unheard of 175.50 ERA, a WHIP of 13.50 and a rate of 121.5 walks per nine innings. Oddly enough, he did not allow a single hit in any of his appearances and managed to strikeout one batter.
The fact is, it appears that Bard cannot be placed in a competitive situation. At least not after being unable to retire a single hitter in three of four outings. This leaves his career precariously hanging in the balance.
While he has had some control issues in the past, most notably in college, it appears that his current issues could be either one of two things. Either the impact of the surgery he had to correct Thoracic Outlet Syndrome on his arm or just as possibly, it could be something psychological that is keeping the righty from throwing strikes.
Either way one thing is strikingly obvious, the pitcher that he once was is now in the past. Bard must now rebuild himself completely, one more time, to be the pitcher that he has shown he has the potential to be.

Dark side of Penny Lane Blue Suburban Skies At The Photographers' Gallery, 5 Great Newport Street, London WC2 until 20 November
'Blue Suburban Skies' takes its name from the Beatles' 'Penny Lane', but doesn't have the song's mixture of the quirky and mundane. That was how it was in suburbia. Now it appears to be Bad Taste Land, devoid of community and spirit, where the gardens are neatly trimmed but only scurrilous activity behind the net curtains relieves the monotony.

Missouri swept this week's Southeastern Conference honors for women's swimming and diving.
Taylor Chappell's first false start in Missouri's 24-14 win over Vanderbilt on Saturday didn't weigh too heavily on his mind.
Wes Clark's eyes grew wide and his voice grew excited when asked about the dunk Johnathan Williams III delivered over the head of a teammate in Missouri's basketball practice on Sunday.
Who Mississippi?

The Missouri soccer team lost 3-0 to Tennessee on Sunday afternoon in Knoxville, Tenn. It was the final road game of the season for the Tigers (10-5-3, 5-4-1 SEC). After a scoreless first half, the Volunteers (7-8-1, 3-6-1) got goals...

GravItational Lensing of Quasars
The universe, in all its richness, diversity and complexity, is populated by a myriad of intriguing celestial objects. Among the most exotic of them are gravitationally lensed quasars. A quasar is an extremely bright nucleus of a galaxy, and when such an object is gravitationally lensed, multiple images of the quasar are produced – this phenomenon of cosmic mirage can provide invaluable insights on burning questions, such as the nature of dark matter and dark energy.
After presenting the basics of modern cosmology, GravItational Lensing of Quasars describes active galactic nuclei, the theory of gravitational lensing, and presents a particular numerical technique to improve the resolution of astronomical data. The book then enters the heart of the subject with the description of important applica- tions of gravitational lensing of quasars, such as the measurement of the famous Hubble constant, the determination of the dark matter distribution in galaxies, and the observation of the mysterious inner parts of quasars with much higher resolutions than those accessible with the largest telescopes. This book gives an overview of the current status of research in the field of gravitationally lensed quasars. It also gives some insights about the way this research is conducted in practice, and presents real data and results obtained with several high-technology instruments of the Very Large Telescope of the European Southern Observatory.less

World's Biggest Orgy: 250 Men & Women Have Sex in the Same Place & Time.
Japan has successfully set a new world record. Having 250 men and 250 women who commenced to have sex in the same place at the same time, completing the world biggest orgy ever!
The Orgy was held in a warehouse with a professional camera crew taking pictures and recording the entire event, which was pretty hot and sticky.
Imagine what it must be like to come stumbling across a room filled with 500 people having oral sex and screwing their brains out. Not to bad a way to end your day huh?
It all seemed a little too organized for our personally liking but leave it to the Japanese to accomplish a goal. Especially if it had anything to do with naked women and sex.
The entire event was actually filmed and available for purchase on DVD for around $40.

E-mail This Page to Your Friendsx
A link to %this page% was e-mailed
Don't have wooden wine crates at home? You can easily get them from wine shops, and they're usually free. Or you can substitute vintage Coca-Cola crates for this project.
Materials Needed:
- 2 wooden wine crates (these are 12" x 12 3/4" x 4 1/4")
- 2 ornate trim pieces for the top
- 5 large wooden spools (about 1 1/2" tall)
- 4 medium wooden spools (about 1 1/4" tall)
- 8 cabinet knobs with bolts (if bolts are too long for thickness of crate, get shorter bolts)
- 7 white cup hooks (7/8")
- 9 wood ball finials (available at craft stores)
- 8 oz. acrylic paint (we used Plaid FolkArt Acrylic Paint in Wicker White #987)
- 1/8 yard white lace
- spray paint (we used Krylon Indoor/Outdoor in White #51508)
- 4 D-ring hangers with screws
- craft glue
- wood glue
- electric drill and bit
- screwdriver
- sandpaper
- 1" - 2" paintbrush (for crate)
- craft paintbrush (for spools)
- ruler
- chalk
Paint Crates, Finials, Spools and Trim
Paint both crates white (or any color of your choosing) with acrylic paint and the large paintbrush (Image 1). Paint the spools, finials and trim pieces white with the same paint and the smaller brush (Images 2-4). Let dry. Re-coat as necessary.
Spray-Paint Cabinet Knobs
Protect floor and surrounding areas with newspaper or plastic sheeting. Hold can six inches from the surface, and spray-paint the cabinet knobs white.
Attach Knobs to Crate
Using the chalk and ruler, measure and mark the locations for the knobs, spacing 4 knobs evenly across the top of each crate's inside back wall. Pre-drill the holes for each knob (Image 1). Feed the knob bolts in from the back (Image 2) and screw the knobs on from the front (Image 3).

Greece's fiscal crisis may improve the euro's long-run viability if it forces nations using the currency to deepen their fiscal integration, according to Craig Wright, Royal Bank of Canada's chief economist.
Along with the leadership of Canada's largest province and the keys to its 120 year-old pink- sandstone legislature, the winner of Ontario's election tomorrow will claim the largest pile of debt of any province, state or local government in the world.
Royal Bank of Canada Chief Economist Craig Wright cut his forecast for Canadian growth this year and next, citing concerns over the U.S. and global economic outlooks.
Axel Merk's bet against the Canadian dollar, one of the biggest he's ever taken, had its roots with the appointment of Stephen Poloz as head of the Bank of Canada.
Canada's budget projects almost C$45 billion ($41 billion) in surpluses over four years, giving Prime Minister Stephen Harper a war chest for increased spending and tax cuts ahead of next year's election campaign.
Canadian Finance Minister Jim Flaherty will release a budget today that will keep the country on path for surpluses starting next year, and set the stage for a political battle over how to use the coming fiscal room.
Bank of Canada Governor Stephen Poloz, battling to bring inflation up to his target, isn't getting much help from wages.
Canadian Finance Minister Jim Flaherty ramped up efforts to return the country to surplus in a budget that raises taxes on cigarettes and cuts benefits to retired government workers while providing more aid for carmakers.
Bank of Canada Governor Stephen Poloz is stressing continuity at the central bank even as it undergoes the biggest turnover of senior management in its 79- year history.
"The domestic side of the economy is doing reasonably well, the challenge remains outside of our borders."
- Craig Wright on Sep 02, 2014

But it is a bicycle. And it is slammed. So it belongs on this Internet site.
UPDATE: It is a Spooky.
Patrick put the SLAM THAT STEM headset bearing cover on his Spooky. It doesn't fit perfectly, but the overhang is worth the increased slammage.

Kate has been ignoring Jo's capabilities and testing Jo's patience by making her work very hard without showing much appreciation. At the same time, Kate is worried that Jo will override her authority, and frequently stops her from having direct contact with customers, even simple chat.
Jo has been suffering and has started to avoid bad feelings by not having much eye contact with Kate, while still working hard. Kate never even gives a nod or smile to Jo when they meet in the staff room. Other colleagues know the story and feel sorry for Jo, but are not able to offer any help to her.
(The above writing describes the true situation, and is written by myself. I need suggestions to make it better.)
Her colleagues would be sympathetic to her situation.

PUNTA GORDA, Fla - Just in time for the holidays carrier Allegiant is now offering flights in and out of Charlotte County Airport.
"We paid less than $50 each way", said one passenger as she waited for her bag.
The non-stop service includes Kentucky, North Carolina and Michigan. The cheap flights also present an opportunity to get tourist in an otherwise still tight economy to vacation in Southwest Florida.
The county's only airport also stands to make plenty of money. Many passengers we spoke to flew into Punta Gorda with final destinations in Bonita Springs and Naples.
One passenger drove from Fort Pierce to take advantage of the low fares.
Tourism officials are hoping some of those passengers traveling elsewhere will spend on stores and restaurants in Charlotte County before hitting the road.

Mission 500 5K charity run raises more than $30K at ISC West
Proceeds to benefit children in need throughout the world
At a Reception and Awards Ceremony for Security 5K runners, Mission 500 awarded its first "Mission 500 Humanitarian Award" to Alan Forman, President of Altronix Corporation. The award honors individuals in the security industry who make important contributions to those in need. "Overcoming poverty is not a gesture of charity, it is an act of justice," said Mr. Fletcher, quoting Nelson Mandela as he handed the award to Mr. Forman. "It is the protection of a fundamental human right, the right to dignity and a decent life." Mr. Forman reminded everyone how fortunate they are to be in a growing industry and stressed the need to become engaged in some way in social justice.
More than 70 of the runners also set up fundraising Web pages and added more donations to help the cause: Jim Hoffpauir of Zenitel USA was top fundraiser with $2,220, followed by Mark Pickett with $1,805 and Caleb Simonyi-Gindele with $1,095. Mr. Hoffpauir went as far as to print special "Security 5K" business cards with his name and fundraising page and gave them to anyone he met before and during the show. "In 1999, I traveled to Guatemala City to rescue an infant boy named Pablo from a life of poverty," said Mr. Hoffpauir. "I adopted him into my family and gave him his American name Austin Michael. Without intervention, Austin would have been challenged daily to find enough nutrition to simply sustain his life. It is sad to know that every day there are still thousands of children just like him around the world that awake to a life of poverty."
Other race winners in various age categories included Lori Walker of Orem, Utah (23:26.00) among females ages 20-30, and David Paul of Ft. Collins, Colo. (19:50.00) among males ages 20-30. Alison Slavin of Vienna, Va. (23:16.00) was fastest among females ages 31-40, and Ken Zemach of Sioux Falls, S.D. (19:16.00) was fastest among males ages 31-40. Martha Entwistle of Yarmouth, Maine (25:20.00) won the race among 41-50-year-old females, and Eric Taylor of Pacheco, Calif. (19:03.00) won among males ages 41-50. In the 51-plus age categories, Leslie Baker of Woburn, Mass. (29:25.00) won among females and Alberto Penaranda of Caracas, Venezuela (22:10.00) won among males. Louise Nesterenko of Calgary, Alberta, Canada, participated in the race despite having a broken knee-cap that was wired − and finished in 39:20.00 minutes.
The Security 5K / Mission 500 Race at the 2010 ISC West Expo in Las Vegas is a collaboration between United Publications, publishers of Security Systems News and Security Director News; Reed Exhibitions, proprietors of ISC Expos; and Mission 500. Charter sponsors are Altronix Corporation, AXIS Communications, Deister Electronics, HID, LRG Marketing Communications, Morse Watchmans and Safety Technology International, Inc.

text: President to Recruit Celebs to Improve ObamaCare's Sinking Poll Numbers Print article Send a Tip by Christian Toto 25 Jun 2013 post a comment President Barack Obama got plenty of aid from Hollywood during the 2012 election cycle in terms of both money and promotion, but he still needs their help. It seems his signature health care reform, ObamaCare, isn't polling too well as more facts emerge about its unexpected costs. So the Obama administration plans to reach out to Hollywood--again--to prop up those sinking poll numbers. Trevor Neilson, a veteran of the Clinton White House, said he's in talks with the Obama administration and that his clients are "looking at ways to be involved." Neilson represents Eva Longoria, John Legend and many other stars as president of Global Philanthropy Group. His past clients have reportedly included Shakira and Madonna, and he has close ties to Bono and Bill Gates. This isn't about passing legislation. ObamaCare will soon be the law of the land. It's all about image, so who better than A-list types to rush to the Celebrity in Chief's side when he needs them the most?

Need another reason to build exercise into your week, month and so on? Here comes one, with a new analysis of the research suggesting that those who are the most aerobically fit for better heart health have almost half the risk of dying from cancer compared to those least fit. The study was published in the Annals of Oncology.
With heart disease and cancer the top two causes of death in the US, the analysis adds to a growing body of evidence that people can protect against top diseases with similar healthy lifestyles.
This study focused on a physical fitness indicator often used for heart health called cardiorespiratory or aerobic fitness. In order to produce energy, our exercising muscle cells need to pull oxygen from the blood. Cardiorespiratory fitness measures how well muscles get oxygen when exercising at a high intensity by looking at the maximal volume of oxygen used (called the VO2 max).
Cardio or aerobic exercises that get your heart rate up and your blood moving – jogging, biking and dancing — help improve your cardiorespiratory fitness. Continue reading

I love your magnet boards. I may try to make one for my son's teacher (he started school today as well - 2nd grade). I actually have a couple of stickles in the large bottles that I bought years ago when they first came out. Thank you for sharing. From one Texas gal to another, Kim G.
