"This is an excellent cookbook, whether you are watching your calories or just need some old-fashioned comfort food without the guilt."
—Tucson Citizen
"In Quick and Easy Low-Cal Vegan Comfort Food, Atlanta-based author Alicia Simpson offers dishes that decidedly don't sound like diet food, but each weighs in at around 350 salaries (or fewer) per serving. . . . Simpson's Southern roots come through in her recipes, especially evident in dishes such as Hoppin' John, Fried Green Tomatoes, Spicy Kale Slaw, and Andouille Gumbo. Beyond the down-home favorites, Simpson explores deliciously new culinary territory. Her Lavender Pancakes sound like something out of a fantasy, her White Lasagna defies dieting, and her Butter Rum Pound Cake will soon become a necessary part of any Sunday brunch."

Science and art at Fisher.
In the waiting room of a clinic in the Little Italy section of Toronto hangs a reproduction of an etching of the head and shoulders of Galileo Galilei. Physicians and laboratory personnel find it reassures the clinic's elderly patients to see the portrait of their eminent countryman on the walls.
Another reproduction, this time of Wei-Po Yang, AD 142, hangs in the Tokyo office of the CEO of Japan's largest biotechnology company, a reminder that experimental science quite likely began in the East, with a Taoist philosopher-alchemist, almost 2,000 years ago.
And in a high-security research laboratory in the vast Oak Ridge, TN, facility, atomic scientists have hung a colour print of a Dutch Master painting called The Alchemist's Experiment Takes Fire. It bears witness to the fact that reactions could be sudden and violent in the 17th as well as in the 20th century, that scientists of every era are brothers (and sisters) under the skin.
In each instance, the pictures cited are reproductions from The Fisher Collection, three out of the thousands of prints made available through the years by the Fisher Scientific home office in Pittsburgh, PA, and the Fisher Scientific Canada home office in Ottawa, to laboratories on every continent.
The Fisher Collection ranges from the aforementioned Wei-Po Yang, father of Chinese alchemy, to the Curies and the dawn of the Atomic Age. One of several oustanding scientific collections in industrial, academic and museum hands, the Fisher Collection was gathered by the 87-year-old scientific equipment manufacturer/distributor from sources throughout the world. Begun in the early 1990s by Chester G. Fisher, founder of the company that still bears his name, the collection is still evolving: only recently it added a rare manuscript letter by Louis Pasteur, a note written by Robert Wilhelm Bunsen, and a curious little painting of an alchemist using a live scorpion as the chief ingredient of his `synthesis,' which a Fisher research chemist discovered during a trip to Zurich.
Alchemical art is a fascinating record of the people, the apparatus and the accomplishments of the early years in which the physical and life sciences grew to their present preeminent positions. Among these scientific delineations are 42 masterworks of the 17th and 18th-century Dutch and Flemish schools. Even if not seen in person, these treasures are known to several generations of science students through frequent appearances in textbooks, monographs and articles and histories of civilization. In fact, for many future chemists, these reproductions were their first glimpse of the early laboratories in which scientists probed the secrets of matter and energy, of disease and health.
One original, The Alchemist, a 1648 wood-panel painting by David Teniers the Younger, has been reproduced so widely it may well be the quintessential example of scientific art, the ultimate delineation of the way things were, in real-life household laboratories, three centuries ago.
In painting upon painting, etching upon etching, the alchemist watches a liquid evaporate. Nothing (including brawling children, antagonistic wives) can disturb his concentration. He may pore over ancient manuscripts, conduct endless literature seaches, set up additional apparatus. But again and again he is shown starting over, attempting the experiment once more, as the years slip by, unnoticed. Alchemy, it becomes clear, was a lifelong dedication. The alchemist was obsessed with the conversion of ordinary metals into gold.
But this is only half the story. Alchemy, as extant art works make clear, was a complicated phenomenon, based on the practical skills of early metalworkers, on Greek philosophy and on the Eastern mystic cults that sprang up in the first centuries after Christ. When alchemy flourished, no line divided science from magic (the influence of the planets, the effect of certain numbers of letters on human life, all were perfectly acceptable to the scientist). Thus the other half of the story of alchemy is spiritual. Gold, bestower of wealth and power, came to stand for excellence, wisdom, enlightenment, perfection. It took on a symbolic as well as a material significance.
Alchemists embarked on both quests at the same time, believing that success in one meant success in the other. The first quest was material transmutation. The second, the spiritual progress of the human soul from its ordinary state to one of perfection. If the universe was permeated by a spirit linking everything together, this spirit could be reproduced and compressed into a magical substance, called the Philosopher's Stone. Once created (from the right raw materials and through endless chemical processing), a small quantity of the stone could change an ordinary metal into gold. Taken internally, as a medicine, the same substance could cure. (It might even confer immortality, and was sometimes called the Elixir of Life.)
In short, the endless experiments alchemists carried out in their household laboratories were ultimately motivated by the search for the Philosopher's Stone, and it was in the course of this search they established an impressive array of chemical facts and developed an impressive array of laboratory apparatus. (The designs of the Arab alchemist Jabir, AD 722-815, led to the modern still.)
Today chemists have succeeded in the alchemical dream: they have transmuted basic raw materials into the gold of commerce, have even changed one element into another, with awesome releases of energy. Furthermore, biomedical research has conquered disease to the extent that we have a foretaste of the Elixir of Life. Life-spans now exceed the Bible's three score and ten.
Recently, John C. Pavlik, long-time curator of The Fisher Collection, told a meeting of the American Chemical Society: "After years of studying alchemical art, I continue to find fresh meanings in each work, subtle new bits of symbolism and iconography. Here a hint of the origins of the contemporary test tube, in a curious vial held up by an iatrochemist; there the use of giant `burning glassess' to attempt to achieve the heat of contemporary gas burners. The only works that do not seem to grow in richness for me are the `closet' pictures of the philosopher's study, of the `hands-off' or nonscientist who pondered what Aristotle might have thought about a phenomenon or process, never questioning, never testing, never experimenting. A look at alchemical art reminds us that, in such situations, science stagnates. It was only when the indefatigable, if often misguided, alchemist took science out of the study and into the laboratory that knowledge began to make the great strides that have been the glory of modern times."
Perhaps this is why the Fisher Collection has an entire gallery of portraits, books, notebooks, letters and actual laboratory apparatus involving one man, the French chemist Pasteur (1822-1895). It was Pasteur who demonstrated that science can be applied to the benefit of all people, and his words appear on the walls of the Pittsburgh gallery:
Take interest, I implore you, in those sacred dwellings
one designates by the expressive terms Laboratories.
Demand that they be multiplied, that they be adorned.
These are the temples of the future -- temples of
well-being and happiness. There it is that humanity grows
greater, stronger, better.

mHealth Trials Are Happening, Without the Clinic
HIMSS' mHealth Summit began yesterday in Washington, D.C., and runs through tomorrow. Because it's in the capital, government policymakers are likely to be dazzled by slick vendor presentations and lofty statements about what mobile health technology can do now and will be doing soon.
Meanwhile, outside the Beltway, healthcare providers ponder all the promise and peril of putting sensitive patient information on an ever-proliferating array of gadgets, the vast majority of which merely have garden-variety security, authorization, and authentication controls. After the petabytes of data breached by lost or stolen laptops is subtracted, the good news is that so far, mHealth doesn't seem to account for very many scary stories of health data exposure. But that could change.
Looking over the mHealth Summit agenda, I was struck by the fact that the elephant in the room—government regulation—has no session devoted to it.
There is a clue, however. Another session is titled, "Pushing the Limits of Mobile Health—Can We Have Health and Healthcare Without Doctors?"
Two answers. First, of course we had health, ill health, and healthcare before there were doctors. I'm pretty sure no one wants to go back to that.
Comments are moderated. Please be patient.

Will the consumer medical device and app be more accurate or helpful than the average general practitioner, or the mediocre one, or the top-notch one? Will low prices extend availability to more people and justify trade offs? Who gets to decide: consumers, medical practitioners, health institutions, insurers, employers, or regulators, and what will influence their decision? What might be the role of advertising? This is a relatively new and fast growing area with lots of unanswered questions. So, what may trigger government regulators to seek answers?

And now for the Blob's Winter Olympics Update, because I remembered to do it today:
* Shaun White mopped the, uh, snow with the competition in men's snowboard, winning the gold as expected.
My take: I really think he could fly if he tried.
My bonus take: Plus, he has awesome hair.
* According to people who know way more about these things than I do, Johnny Weir of the U.S. got robbed by the judges the other night in men's singles figure skating.
My take: I thought they got rid of all the East German judges.
My bonus take: But what do I know. I still think a triple axel is something Jimmie Johnson's crew chief, Chad Knaus, tried to sneak by the NASCAR officials at Daytona.
* Lindsey Vonn won the women's downhill despite her severely bruised shin, perhaps the single greatest moment so far in these star-crossed Games.
My take: The next time some I-make-more-than-the-gross-national-product-of-Brazil baseball star goes on the DL for a hangnail, I'm sending Vonn to beat him up.
My bonus take: Because, you know, she could.

La Nova Esquerra de l'Eixample Apartment Rental Photos and Description
Apartment, 3 Bedrooms + Library, 2 Baths, (Sleeps 6)
Family who booked July had to cancel! Lucky guests will get a chance to late book our place this year!!
This beautiful 3 bedroom apartment in the Eixample district of Barcelona is located right above the Rocafort metro entrance on the Gran Via. It is an easy 7 block walk from here to the heart of the city and only 5 short blocks from the Placa Espanya and Montjuic, home of the Olympic stadium and beautiful hiking trails.
Some of the trendiest restaurants are only a few blocks away. There is an elevator, washer/dryer, and both supermarkets and fresh markets nearby. The modern kitchen is fully equipped.
Traveling with kids? There are parks all around us including the Miro park where the playground has a little coffee bar so you can enjoy a cup of coffee or a beer while the kids play. Restaurants are very child friendly and people are often out until late at night without a second thought! Be sure to head to Tibidabu and have fun in this theme park that overlooks the city!
No kids, no problem! Nightlife abounds in this town! There is Flamenco, great local food, clubs are close, taxis frequent and this peaceful haven to return to at the end of your night. Unlike other cities, life in Barcelona is on the streets, the art is viewed from the doorstep and the wine flows freely!
Why so inexpensive? It costs so much just to get to Europe! I would rather people travel and see the world than gouge my guests so in the spirit of encouraging people to find out how wonderful this city is I keep the price low. The apartment is beautiful and quite a bargain!
Keywords: Grand Apartment
- Suitability:
- alternative lifestyle
- children welcome
- non smoking only
About The Owner
I am a Denver photographer and my husband and I brought our family to Barcelona for two years. My heart is still there and I return frequently. We love traveling but now that college is on the scene the family travel time is limited to the holidays.
The Owner purchased this apartment in 2003
Why The Owner chose La Nova Esquerra de l'Eixample
Ahh, Barcelona. A city where the art is on the streets rather than locked up in museums! I fell in love with the modernista architecture, the life in the cafe's, the sea nearby, and the overall graciousness of the place. The clubs are a riot, the festivals often dangerous and very exciting, and the food is always fresh!
What makes this apartment unique
Living where you can walk or take very fast public transportation is a huge plus in this city. It is built on a human scale rather than for cars which makes it very accessible as well as a nightmare for traffic! By and large, It is a safe place as long as you are not on the Ramblas~think Paris or Rome and keep your jewelry discrete. I frequently see elderly people on the street at 12:30 walking home without fear. With so much to do, anytime of year is fun to be in Barcelona!
Guestbook comments from the owner
Connie, Our trip to Barcelona was wonderful! We loved everything we saw. It is such a neat city. Your apartment was perfect! It had everything we could have possibly needed and was in perfect location. We just hopped on the Metro or walked wherever we needed to go. Thank you so much for renting it to us! We will certainly recommend it to any of our friends who plan a trip to Barcelona.

Love the clever yet simple design of the chassis that isn't really a chassis. All major components mounted to the engine/gearbox, i.e. Airbox/Headstock, SwingArm and finally Seat Unit, brilliant very similar to Colin Chapman's thinking of the early Lotus F1 cars. I also love the looks.

I agree with Guygraham. The marketing man needs to check out the MotoGP results table, that might get them to adjust the strategy. However the development of this bike most likely started well before Rossi was on board and it was likely too far down the road to make a U turn. They better hope that it has front end feel as if the press slate it then it will be a 2012 White Elephant. I hope it's good as it certainly looks the part and the top spec suspension and brakes make me drool.

I hope that the comments Rossi has been making about the frame do not affect the bike. I used to admire Rossi and his team but there was talk in the beginning that they taunted Stoner and said they could sort out the Ducati in a short time. This season has showed that the Ducati is harder to tame and Stoner has proved how good he is on the track on any bike.
I do not think that there are too many Rossi,s on the road although in all fairness how many test pilots will comment on the rigid frame or lack of feel of the front end on the road.
I hope it sells and I can save up and part exchange my 916 bp for one.
Come on guys which one of us believes we are really going to test the chassis to it's limits re "Rossi".
For me I love my Aprilia RSV4F APRC and of it's 5000 miles last year 3000 must have been on Track Days, but I know my limits, never a racer will I be "too old" and therefore "too slow". Which ever way you look at this new Ducati you have got to admire the engineers who dare to do something different. I would by one in a heart beat as I think it will be viewed as a motorcycle Milestone, could be wrong, who knows.

Winter has arrived in the Victoria region. With temperatures dropping to zero and below, many of our thoughts turn to those without a warm, safe place to sleep.

We took the opportunity to sit down with EWP Coordinator, Jen Bacon, to learn more about the program. Continue reading
Numbers show ending homelessness is achievable
One of the more significant challenges in understanding how to end homelessness in a community like Greater Victoria is estimating how much housing we need and of what sort. How much affordable housing do we need for people whose primary challenge is the high cost structure in Victoria and how much supportive housing do we need for people who, for one reason or another, are challenged to maintain housing for reasons that go beyond affordability?

Youth Homelessness Checklist
It is often difficult to identify children and youth experiencing homelessness. Youth living alone and families facing homelessness will try to hide the situation to avoid stigma or because of fear of having children taken away. Early identification, however, can put children, youth and families in contact with services that can assist in times of crisis. Continue reading

GRAND JUNCTION, Colo. Many dads spent Sunday, June 15, relaxing, or hanging out with their families, but it was a different story for the men of the Grand Junction Fire and Police Departments.
For them holidays are just another day on the job.
Dads at the fire department said that getting a surprise visit from their kids was even more special on a day like Father's Day, but they know their job is important.
"Like to thank all the families for hanging in there with us and when we do respond we realize other families have these same situations and we respond to those emergencies," said Captain Corey Laverne from Station 3.
For dad and firefighter Jason Whitesides visiting with his two young daughters made his day even though he was at work.
"It's pretty important, it's pretty special, it's a very family oriented occupation my family is pretty close with the rest of these guys," said Whitesides.
Police officers like Jeff Grady were also on duty on Sunday and for him it was all about talking to his three sons.
"But it's kind of nice, I got three phone calls this morning from my boys and it definitely touches your heart that they're still remembering you when they're in their twenties," said Grady.

Burn ban lifted
WICHITA FALLS - Wichita County Commissioners voted Monday to lift the countywide burn ban for the time being.
The lifting came after most of the volunteer fire departments in the county recommended it. Wichita County has been under burn bans at various time due to dry conditions that have prevailed over the past couple of years.
County Emergency Management Coordinator Lee Bourgoin noted that commissioners could re-institute the ban if conditions change and the county judge has the authority to also do so under emergency conditions.
The ban had forbidden most outdoor burning.
Pct. 3 Commissioner Barry Mahler noted that conditions are still potentially dangerous for wildfire and urged people to be extremely cautious with burning.
The lifting of the ban applies only to unincorporated areas in the county. Towns and cities have their own outdoor burning ordinances. Outdoor burning is not allowed in Wichita Falls.

Obama 2.0: The liberal agenda to come
Do not expect a return of the mythical moderate Obama, the one who speaks of bipartisanship with an earnest tone and dances cautiously around his liberal partners, trying not to brush too close to them. Tonight he is most likely to emerge arm in arm with them. He has more "flexibility" now.
Tonight the President makes clear his priorities, and they will share one common theme: More money and more power for Washington so that it may reshape America according to the image Barack Obama has envisioned.
There is to be no serious effort to eliminate the federal debt that already is harming our economy and will only do greater damage as it rapidly expands under a President who has no interest in controlling it. There is to be no serious entitlement reform, no serious reduction in federal spending or power.
On domestic issues, expect a highly partisan, exceedingly liberal call to expand the power, scope and size of the leviathan. On foreign policy, expect retreat.
Tonight, Obama begins in earnest his plan to become the liberal Reagan, to undo the Reagan legacy and restore the FDR-LBJ welfare state, only greater and with more power and authority to control the lives of citizens. The Republican response ought to be as strong and aggressive as the President's. Hit back, and hit back hard. This is a big moment. Live up to it.

Oct 18, 2012This game has a great basic mechanic that will appeal to action puzzler fans. It's addictive and you'll be immediately hooked on chaining together your atoms. But the game never develops anything new past this. There aren't any new modes to unlock, or pre-configured challenges to overcome. Ultimately this is disappointing because a puzzle mode would certainly enhance this game greatly. There is infinite mode, but it's just an endless regular mode. Oh boy, it's not like it's so much fun that i wish it would just never end, literally. Another bad area is the options menu. There's one. That's right, one option. Single button mode. So what about mouse sensitivity on this type of game. I like to get that dialed in just right. Too bad, they don't have it. Over all, this is a great game to distract yourself for a solid afternoon or two. After that, lacking more to bring you back, you'll probably move on.… Expand
Jan 3, 2013I love puzzle games that implement music but this game really fails to deliver that sense of progression in the musical score which I crave from these type of games. In short the are many that do this better and whilst the game does become engaging once you get your head around the at times really muddled presentation and poorly explained rules the is a vaguely enjoyable game in here. But would I recommend it? Not really, the are many better games out there for free.… Expand
Jan 5, 2013A good puzzler should keep you playing for hours as you strive to get better. Games like Tetris and Lumines haunt me even after I play as I visualize falling blocks and how I'd rotate them on the backs of my eyelids. AVSEQ didn't capture me in that way. In this game, falling, colorful blocks have to be chained together and removed from the field before they reach the bottom of the screen. Selection of blocks is done with the mouse, which will ultimately be the limiting factor on your skill within the game; to me, this felt sloppy compared to the tight, reflex-driven controls of a button-mashing puzzler, and was the reason I didn't feel compelled to pick the game back up after my initial playthrough.… Expand

Natural Science + Zoological Illustration
Course No. BMA 253 Credits: 3.0
Faculty Thomas Nowacki
This course is designed to develop strong observational skills, and integrate traditional and digital media within the scope of monochromatic production. The goal will be to convey an aesthetically powerful illustration, which effectively provides a solution for a specific visual communication problem. The student will learn a vocabulary for expressing pertinent natural science and medical art concepts in relation to technique, design, composition, object accuracy/integrity and context. Students outside the major of Biomedical Art will be required to apply the concepts and techniques taught in class to observational subjects pertinent to their major of study. The emphasis will be tonal and line base methods in various media, including graphite, ink, black/white color pencil, carbon dust, and introductory digital illustration techniques in Adobe Photoshop. The rendering concepts learned will provide a solid foundation for subsequent semesters and be integrated further into the broader scope and applications in Biomedical Art. Offered fall.

NEW YORK — Serena Williams reached her first Grand Slam quarter-final of the year with a 6-3, 6-3 victory over Kaia Kenepi in the U.S. Open on Monday, keeping her hopes alive for a third straight Flushing Meadows crown.
The top-seeded Williams, who lost in the fourth round of the Australian Open, the second round of the French Open and third round of Wimbledon, said she felt the pressure of getting to the quarters in New York.
"I finally made a quarter-final this year!" Williams said in her on-court interview, raising her hands to the cheers of the crowd in Arthur Ashe Stadium. "I think I felt it in my service game. I'm like, 'Can I please make it to a Grand Slam quarters this year?' So glad to do it in New York."
That drive to do it this year was bad news for the 50th-ranked Kanepi. Williams won 12 straight points on her serve to start the match, a streak that included five of her eight aces.
Williams next plays 11th-seeded Flavia Pennetta, a 7-5, 6-2 winner over 29th-seeded Casey Dellacqua.
Pennetta, who reached the semifinals of the U.S. Open last year, said she needed to do her best with the tools she has to have a chance against the No. 1-ranked Williams, who already holds 17 Grand Slam titles.
"You cannot invent something. I mean, you just have to play your tennis," Pennetta said. "Of course, she's better than me, but if I still believe I can beat her, maybe if she doesn't have a good day, I can do that."
Also Monday, top-seeded Novak Djokovic rolled past 22nd-seeded Philipp Kohlschreiber 6-1, 7-5, 6-4. Later on, third-seeded Stan Wawrinka outlasted 16th-seeded Tommy Robredo 7-5, 4-6, 7-6 (7), 6-2, while eighth-seeded Andy Murray advanced past ninth-seeded Jo-Wilfried Tsonga 7-5, 7-5, 6-4.
Unlike the men's side, which entered Monday with only one major upset (No. 4 David Ferrer), the women's draw has been decimated. Only Williams, No. 7 Eugenie Bouchard of Westmount, Que., and No. 10 Caroline Wozniacki have survived among the top 10 seeds going into the tournament's second week. And Bouchard fell to No. 17-seeded Ekatarina Makarova 7-6 (2), 6-4.
In a night match, Victoria Azarenka, the No. 16 seed and U.S. Open finalist loser to Williams the last two years, gained a place in the quarter-finals by rallying past 145th-ranked qualifier Aleksandra Krunic 4-6, 6-4, 6-4.
In other early action Monday, the No. 1 doubles team of Bob and Mike Bryan rolled on in their quest for a 100th career title with a 6-3, 7-6 (5) victory over U.S. countrymen Bradley Klahn and Tim Smyzek. The Bryans, who hold a record 15 Grand Slam tournament titles, have yet to drop a set on their road to the quarter-finals.
And the darling of the U.S. Open, 15-year-old CiCi Bellis, opened her pursuit of the junior girls' crown with a 6-1, 6-3 victory over Mexico's Renata Zarazua.
Bellis, the top-seeded junior, played in the grandstand, the third-largest venue, to accommodate fans eager to watch the 15-year-old prodigy. Bellis upset 12th-seeded Dominika Cibulkova, the Australian Open runner-up, in the first round of the main draw.

Re: "Banning junk food from schools is a wise move" (Online letters, Sept. 16) I am amazed at how Barbara Madimenos can ask how anyone could argue with Vanier College's decision to ban junk-food. I applaud her sense of moderation and her support of a healthy lifestyle. But what is happening at Vanier is not at all a good model for its students.
Re: "Let students make their own food choices" (Your Views, Sept. 16) I support Vanier's decision to ban sodas and fries.
Re: "Vanier College is wrong to ban fries" (Online letters, Sept. 15) I completely disagree with Nathan Friedland on how banning junk food from school is a form of deprivation for the students who are learning how to be mature and independent. Schools are meant to teach, and sometimes, they have to implement certain rules in order to show how to apply things outside of a school environment. In this case, Vanier took the initiative to ban junk food in order to exemplify how to eat well, so they may continue it at home.
Again, as the school year begins, our neighbourhood has to deal with the same impolite behaviour by several high school students who, on their way back to their establishments after having lunch in one of the two fast-food restaurants close by, throw their boxes, cans, cups and bags on the sidewalk, street or front lawns. And yet, there are garbage bins along the way they easily could use. In 37 years of living in the same usually pleasant and well kept area, near two major high schools with good reputations, we have never witnessed such a situation. It has even been futile to call upon the schools' involvement and cooperation, because it cannot be held responsible for such unfortunate behaviour outside their premises.

Comedian/director Marshall writes very openly on her life experiences growing up in the Bronx, getting pregnant and married young in New Mexico, her marriage to Rob Reiner, friendship with Carrie Fisher, and relationship with Art Garfunkel. Marshall revisits tough subjects like abortion, drugs, lack of mothering skills, and her now fading health. Great stories abound of her time spent on TV shows, movies, and her career as a movie director. Marshall's humor is how she gets through the difficult stuff and lives with a simple motto: "try hard, help your friends, don't get too crazy, and have fun."
It begins with dinner at a high-end restaurant in Amsterdam. Two brothers, Paul and Serge, and their wives meet to discuss their teenage sons. It is quickly apparent this is no ordinary discussion.
