On Growth and Form
From the Publisher. Looks at the way things grow and the shapes they take. Analyzing biological processes in their mathematical and physical aspects, this historic work, first published in 1917, has also become renowned for the sheer poetry of its descriptions. A great scientist sensitive to the fascinations and beauty of the natural world tells of jumping fleas and slipper limpets; of buds and seeds; of bees' cells and raindrops; of the potter's thumb and the spider's web; of a film of soap and a bubble of oil; of a splash of a pebble in a pond.
Although it was first published almost a century ago and offers finer details than most of us need, this is a fundamental and poetically written book about the material world for which we must design—about how things grow and why they take the shapes they do, about weakness and strength, speed and size, symmetry and asymmetry, and the partitioning of space. I recommend the 1961 Cambridge University Press abridged edition.
Another link between my biology studies and architecture is this mathematical study of form in nature. All the famous examples, plus many, many more and a deep mathematical analysis of every one of them.
The power of keen observation of natural phenomena informs this influential book, which stresses the ways in which structure and mechanics play a role in how living things find their form. What structure junky could resist discussions of spherical tetrahedrons, soap bubbles, or the delicate skeletal patterns found in radiolaria? Even though the science behind it has since been updated, Thompson's book remains full of wonders.

Just wanted to say, "Hello form Arkansas!"
I'm new to CC (received my CHCL in Feb '13) and I wanted to say these forums have been a wealth of information.
Answered a lot of my questions about self defense and CC.
Any tips from veteran CC guys are greatly appreciated.
Also, I recently purchased a Sig mosquito to get my wife and daughter to the range with me so any advice on how to keep them interested would be appreciated as well.

It looks amazing, have they started playing the new music in Buena Vista Street???
Thanks for taking these shots.
I HATE that they are taking down construction walls! I really thought this was going to be the one case where they were going to truely keep all of new DCA behind walls for the big reveal.

It looks amazing. The shot down Hollywood BLVD on the fountain towards the the fake sky facade is probably a cool photo op.
I think they decided to take the walls down so pixar parade could have rehearsals that's pretty logical imo

Special Correspondent
FIMI will be given an opportunity to participate in joint ventures
NEW DELHI: Ivory Coast is keen on bilateral cooperation with India in the mining sector. This was stated by that country's Mines, Energy and Petroleum Minister Monnet Leon during a meeting with the Minister of State for Mines, T. Subbarami Reddy, here on Monday.
The visiting minister from the West African country said there were prospects for cooperation in the fields of exploration, extraction, survey and mining technology.
An official release says Ivory Coast has mineral resources like bauxite, limestone, iron ore, manganese, nickel, gold and diamonds which have not been significantly explored.
Mr. Leon showed keen interest in entrusting exploration and mining of these minerals to Indian entrepreneurs through joint ventures. It was decided that the Federation of Indian Mineral Industries (FIMI) would be given an opportunity to participate in such joint ventures. Similarly, the release says, the Mineral Exploration Corporation Limited will also explore the possibilities of undertaking such activities. A meeting in this regard is expected to be organised on Tuesday, the release adds.

I was 28 years old. We decided we were ready to get pregnant, and poof — one month later I was pregnant. No big deal — or the very biggest deal. I wasn't so sure back then. I wasn't even sure I wanted to be a parent. In my 20s, parenting was something I wasn't the least bit interested in. Kids were messy in more ways than one, and I always saw myself childless and fancy-free. It was my sister who always said she wanted a van full of kids, lots of them, as many as she could have.
My sister, Jen, is five years my junior. We grew up in a loud house with loud parents and pretty much a really loud life. We were always up in each other's business. We love each other for this, and it also drives us crazy.

Is an Apostolate within the International Schoenstatt Movement. It began in Brazil and initiates prayer, evangelization, and formation through the traveling Pilgrim MTA shrine. Groups of 5-10 families circulate the wooden icon during the course of each month. What takes place when the Pilgrim MTA goes to visit families and homes?
When the Blessed Virgin Mary went to visit her cousin, Elizabeth, her presence brought many blessings. Not only did Mary serve Elizabeth's physical needs, she brought the Lord with her into Elizabeth's house. She filled the atmosphere in the home with praises of God, prompted joy, inspired prophecy, and prepared the way for the miracle of Zachary's cure. (cf Luke 1:39-56). Mary needs you to bring her and Jesus into our homes, offices, schools, gathering places. We are called on by the recent popes to spread a Christian culture, a Marian atmosphere wherever we are. We can overcome the gravely sinful and negative aspects in society by opening our hearts to Mary. She wants to transform our minds and hearts with her graces from the Schoenstatt Shrine and to spread the Kingdom of God by bringing Christ anew to those around us.
The campaign meets in the Upper Room on Wednesday evenings from 7-8pm for English and 8-9pm for Spanish. Come join us and see what Our Lord and Blessed Mother have for you.

Six ways for gardeners can survive winter with style.
Power through branches with ease.
Recently, I was strolling through a local garden nursery, and I was struck by how beautiful their bonsai collection was.
Later, that same day, while sewing Boy Scout patches onto my son's uniform, I used my Fiskars Micro-Tip scissors to snip the thread. Since I'm not a true fan of sewing other than hand work, I envisioned using these along with the Softouch® Micro-Tip® Pruning snips to train a small tree for bonsai. I held onto this pleasant thought as I persevered around yet another patch.
You can purchase already trained plants, but I'm always looking to expand my gardening knowledge so I bought a small elm to attempt some techniques. The art of bonsai is an ancient one practiced as a Zen Buddhist meditation. Bonsai refers to any plant grown in a container to resemble a miniaturized mature specimen.
It takes years to learn this gentle art, but as I read and incorporated a few simple techniques, I can now give you a gentle push to start. For this project, I'm assuming your bonsai is going to be an indoor specimen (although in warmer climates most bonsai gardens are outdoors). When choosing a plant, you can start with a stem cutting, or a root cutting, but if you are an amateur, it is probably easier to grow a rooted immature plant. Bonsai aren't necessarily dwarf plants. They are kept in check by pruning and shaping. According to Indoor Bonsai for Beginners, by Werner M. Busch, the easiest plants to train for indoors are "…the different type of fig trees (Ficus) . . . the myrtle (Myrtus communis) and the Chinese podocarpus (Podocarpus macrophyllus)."
My container was nearly square so I placed my plant in the center. If your container is a rectangle, place the plant asymmetrically within the space. This is done because both are more visually pleasing, but also in Zen Buddhist thought, your plant represents heaven and earth coming together in the container with the center being where heaven and earth meet. Much of Japanese garden design and flower arrangement incorporates the principle of the triangle, and bonsai is no exception. The three points of the triangle represent heaven, earth and humanity, and while I worked on my bonsai, I thought of each. The shape of the bonsai tree should incorporate the triangle principle, and your triangle can be vertical or horizontal. You can further train your plant in a cascade form as though growing out of a rock formation.
My little tree was badly root bound when I removed it from its plastic pot so I spent a lot of time loosening the roots and shaking off the soil. Then, I took my Softouch® Micro-Tip® Pruning snips and gently pruned away about two-thirds of the downward growing roots. It was difficult to do this, but being a longtime gardener, I know it encourages the tree to grow new roots. I kept most of the lateral roots intact for the tree's stability and health. You can see the before and after pictures above.
The type of soil used in bonsai is crucial. To keep things simple, you want soil which is fast draining and contains loose coarse particles like lava and fired clay. Like specialized bonsai tools, fired clay particles can be obtained online. However, since I have a Labrador puppy, I have plenty of broken clay pots. To be frugal, I put on safety glasses and took my hammer to the clay shards and created my own gravel which I placed in the bottom of the container. I then mixed sand with regular potting soil. Moss or gravel can be placed on top of the soil as mulch. After planting, experts don't agree on the best way to water. Some believe you shouldn't water from above as it compacts the soil and runs off the edge of the container before penetrating the roots. These experts suggest immersing the container in a pan of water for a moment or two. Others think watering from above is fine. Either way, the water should be of the best quality (with rain water being unsurpassed) because salt and chlorine build up in soil. If you must use tap water, let it sit for a day or two before you plant. Also, remember bonsai will need additional feeding due to frequent watering.
I used the Fiskars Micro-Tip® scissors to prune my tree into a triangular shape in the formal upright style. As you can see, it will take it awhile to recover.
My little tree is now ensconced in my large bathroom window which faces east for plenty of sun. I plan to take it outdoors placing it in partial shade once spring comes, but for now, I'll enjoy it every morning as I get ready for my day.

Winnipeg Free Press - PRINT EDITION
Liberals, Conservatives both failed Omar Khadr
One thing that is certain is that the Canadian al-Qaida terrorist Omar Khadr will never live a normal life. Khadr stands as the most complex symbol of the problems the United States has brought upon itself as a result of setting up its notorious detention centre at Guantanamo Bay in Cuba.
Khadr, who is now 24, has been there since he was 15. The years he has spent in the detention centre are not alone responsible for who he now is, but they may well have added to his radical convictions.
His case is compounded by competing issues. There is no doubt he is a terrorist and was at least partially responsible for killing a U.S. soldier in Afghanistan with a grenade. This week he admitted to a military court that he is guilty of that crime and of conspiring with al-Qaida.
There are two problems with that: the first is that he was 15 at the time. The second is that, had he been a combatant with a country at war instead of being a warrior for al-Qaida, he would not have been guilty of any crime at all. Soldiers who kill in the name of their countries are doing their duty.
In other contexts, the use of 15-year-olds in combat is condemned by the United States and the Western world in general as the employment of child soldiers. Khadr is the first person since the Second World War to be prosecuted by a war crimes tribunal for acts he committed as a juvenile.
Canada has tried to distance itself as far from the Khadr affair as possible. The Harper government has consistently said that he was the United States' problem and should be tried by the U.S. system. It's a stance that is easy to criticize, but any course of action by the Canadian government has been fraught with difficulty.
How do you deal with a 15-year-old who is accused of killing a friendly country's soldier? There is no easy answer, and it is a question that our courts have had difficulty determining.
Khadr's Canadian lawyers demanded that the government fight for his repatriation to Canada. The argument was that he was a Canadian citizen apprehended and held without trial. But given the crimes he was accused of and the potential threat he posed, it was a difficult case to argue.
The Federal Court of Appeal decided one way -- that the government should seek to repatriate him. Then the Supreme Court reversed the ruling. To make matters more confusing, however, the Supreme Court also ruled that Khadr's human rights had been violated. How, exactly, do you rule that human rights have been violated but it's OK to do nothing about it?
Now it looks as though Khadr will serve some of his sentence in Canada under a quiet deal being worked out between U.S. and Canadian diplomats.
But really, what a mess this is.
My belief in civil liberties, human rights and the careful treatment of young offenders tells me that locking Khadr up in Guantanamo was simply wrong, whether or not he was abused while he was there.
Khadr is an intelligent man who speaks a number of languages and has deep knowledge of the Muslim holy book, the Qur'an. He has become a leader in Guantanamo and, according to his prosecutors, has shown no remorse for his actions.
That is hardly surprising. Khadr was brought up in al-Qaida camps. The man believes in what he was fighting for. So, no doubt, do others at Guantanamo. As members of a terrorist organization, believing in the right of their cause, they pose a unique problem to the normal process of the law. They may be combatants, but they are combatants who flout the conventions of war.
Normally, when prisoners of war are released at the end of hostilities, they return home to a peaceful life. There can be no guarantee that the prisoners at Guantanamo will do any such thing. For them, the struggle may well continue. Their theatre of war is anywhere they may decide to take terrorist action.
Closing Guantanamo raises the awkward question of what to do with the committed terrorists it houses. For Khadr, though, the question is why he was sent there in the first place.
Whatever he had done, placing a 15-year-old in a prison for terrorists without any due process is not defensible. He was indoctrinated, being brought up as a child in al-Qaida camps. Khadr should have had juvenile psychiatric help. He was a Canadian citizen who deserved the protection of the Canadian government. He didn't get it. Instead, he received Canadian collusion in his continuing detention. It is worth remembering, though, that when Khadr was first sent to Guantanamo and was interviewed by Canadian security forces, Jean Chrétien was prime minister. Stephen Harper doesn't wear this one alone. Khadr was a hard Canadian to protect, but both parties failed to do so.

Vince McMahon posted a picture of himself in the gym on Twitter.
Now that she has given birth, Taryn Terrell has started working out, in order to get in shape for wrestling again.
Since he has one of the most impressive physiques in professional wrestling, an industry filled with well toned bodies, Scott Steiner has been asked for years about his workout program, so the former WCW star released a fitness DVD, which teaches beginning, intermediate and advanced level people.
During Monday Night Raw, Jerry Lawler made a comment about how Ryback isn't smart enough to know the two directions that an elevator can go. That prompted a respon from Ryback on Twitter, where the WWE star mentioned about Miss Kitty, Lawler's former wife.
Ever since Jerry Lawler had that heart attack on Monday Night Raw, all eyes have been on the veteran commentator whenever he has a health issue. After the scare backstage during Old School Raw, it has now been revealed that the WWE star simply had the stomach flu.
While he repeatedly attempted to hide his condition from the company, Jerry Lawler was sent to the hospital from Monday Night Raw to be checked on. His son, Brian Christopher, was the one that alerted management, who then forced the commentator to leave.

Rajon Rondo has done everything right.
In the 29,233,380 seconds he's spent rehabbing from his Feb. 14 ACL surgery, he's attended just about every game, remaining vocal in practice and quiet in public.
When everyone jumped ship this past summer, he stayed the course, welcoming Brad Stevens with open arms and even calling the rookie head coach his "best friend" on media day. They probably even played Connect Four together.
This was the guy who supposedly forced Doc Rivers out of town, wanted no part of rebuilding and wouldn't last the season. Now, on the eve of his return against the Lakers 11 months after season-ending knee surgery, none of that appears to be the case.
Instead, Rondo has proven to be the guy the Celtics should build around.
He still has his detractors -- those who subscribe to a "Rondo's an a-hole" theory that always seemed to be perpetuated by a media contingent that doesn't enjoy his dry press conferences -- but even they must be few and far between now.
This is the guy that organized team workouts in Los Angeles during the lockout, welcomed the entire organization into his home prior to this season and took all the Red Claws out to eat after his two-hour D-League stint on Wednesday.
"Rajon has a great place in his heart for people. He does so many things in our community," C's president Danny Ainge said on the radio Thursday. "He reaches out to kids organizations and charities, and he's good with our young players. He's a guy that lifts people up after games and before games, and tries to give encouragement to younger players to stay focused. I think he's growing year by year."
Oh, and in case you forgot, he's a pretty damn good basketball player, maybe the most entertaining in the entire league, and certainly the most unique.
Perhaps you forgot his 21 points, eight rebounds, seven assists and six steals in Game 6 of the 2008 NBA Finals, his near triple-double series average opposite Derrick Rose in 2009, his 29-18-13 in a crucial Game 4 against LeBron James' Cavaliers in 2010, his return from a dislocated elbow in 2011 or his 44-point effort against the Heat in 2012. Or any of his 27 career triple-doubles.
You know, the Oscar Robertson, Magic Johnson type stuff. This is a player who can share the stage with anyone in the NBA, and outduel them all on any given night.
"Rondo each year has made progress in his maturity and leadership skills, and we're just hoping that he continues to grow as a leader," added Ainge. "I think this perspective of going through rehab and sitting and watching and not being able to help his teammates and looking at the game from a coach's perspective can only enhance that. It's been a humbling experience for him. And, now, trying to come back after the surgery to be who he was, which I think he will be, is just going to take a little bit of time. That's going to be another growing opportunity for Rajon."
This is why you build around Rajon Rondo. He turns 27 on Feb. 22, the same age as Paul Pierce when the Celtics tanked in 2006-07. (If you'll recall, Pierce had his share of detractors at that point in his career.) Any NBA team with championship aspirations needs multiple All-Stars, so what's the logic behind trading Rondo? Hope two or three of their 29,233,380 draft picks turn into top-25 players? Doesn't landing one or two with all these assets to pair with Rondo seem like a safer bet?
Wondering why the Celtics are bringing back Rondo with three months remaining in the season is a legitimate question, since his return will lose them Ping-Pong balls. But the answer is the reason the Celtics must build around him. He loves the game. More than he loves roller-skating. Maybe as much as Kevin Garnett loves basketball.
The C's biggest problem this season has been fourth-quarter execution, and Rondo -- being one of the game's best point guards and all -- kind of helps in that regard.
"Obviously, like anybody, it could take a while, but I feel like he's going to come out and perform well for us," said Avery Bradley. "I know he's a great player. One thing I can say is that when he does come back, he's going to make it easier on everybody."
But don't get too caught up in tanking talk. The Celtics will be in the lottery. They'll have to play close to .600 ball in their final 42 games to equal the Bucks' record as the eighth seed last season (38-44). Even if Rondo had his 40-minute stamina and full familiarity with the roster, which he doesn't, that would be too much to ask.
Heck, the C's might even have two lottery picks, if the Al Horford-less Hawks and Brook Lopez-less Nets both fail to make the playoffs. But that's beyond their control.
Rajon Rondo's future, however, is entirely up to the Celtics. He's done everything right. So should they. He's overseen the demolition process. Let him cut the ribbon.

When the staffers at Desert Sun Tanning Salons say they can fix your problems with a cocktail, they?re not talking about libations. Instead, they?re referring to a method that combines two types of bronzing styles. After lying in a traditional sunbed, patrons pop into an automatic spray-tanning booth. The idea is that the UV rays in the bed trigger melanin production and open the pores so that the spray tan goes on darker and lasts longer. Of course, customers can indulge in either of these options separately, choosing from a fleet of machinery that includes Mystic Tan and VersaSpa sunless tanning booths and silver-, gold-, and platinum-level sunbeds.
They can also undergo a session that doesn?t change the skin?s tone, but, rather, tones it. Red-light therapy drenches the skin in fluorescent light that boosts collagen production in order to firm skin, tighten muscles, and transform sagging bloomers into boxer briefs. Regular salon visitors can consider purchasing a membership, which entitles them to tanning-bed upgrades and discounts on skincare products.
At Silhouette Organic Beauty Lounge, guests enjoy a completely organic experience. Along with the organic hair and skincare products—many of which are also vegan, gluten-free, or wheat-free—the beauty lounge also provides local, organic teas for guests. The spa even features LED lighting, which is softer on the eyes than fluorescent lighting or interrogations done with the spotlights used to illuminate the space shuttle at night.
While the choice of beauty services can vary widely—from a keratin treatment to lash extensions or a mani-pedi—there's a common purpose in all of them. The staff aims to have guests leave feeling refreshed and beautiful, which is easier to guarantee since there are no harmful chemicals used in the services.
Regular clients of House of Lashes can never seem to find their mascara, simply because they haven?t used it in a long, long time. Every few weeks, they lie back as one of the salon?s stylists adheres real or synthetic mink or silk eyelash extensions to their natural lashes. The staff uses a medical-grade adhesive to forge the bond for up to 90 days, long enough to reenact the entire childhood of the average Middle Ages king. In case clients want to go the opposite direction, the technicians also perform and array of waxing services.
Whether it's building a base tan for a tropical vacation or getting the ideal glow for a special occasion, the staff of Planet Bronze Tanning help tailor visits by ushering clients toward the appropriate services. Beyond the modest storefront, private rooms house UV beds in a variety of levels, equipped with UVA/UVB bulbs that bronze skin in as little as 12 minutes. Planet Bronze also offers sunless-tanning products. Its professional custom airbrush sessions swathe skin in a gentle solution that transforms into a deep tan that lasts up to 10 days with proper avoidance of human car washes.
The specialists at ILash Factory favor eyelash extensions made from fine materials, be they soft silk, feathery faux mink, or shimmery genuine unicorn tail. They affix luxurious extensions in a variety of sizes to natural lashlines one by one, arranging them in a choice of looks that include dramatic, cat-eye, and natural. After the initial application, which can take up to two hours, the lash specialist offers follow-up appointments during which they touch up and restore extensions after weeks of wear.
What makes it great: organic flower aromatics and hydrating oils that help balance skin tone; added relaxation with a hand-and-arm massage, warm foot soak, and pressure-point treatment; affordable service performed by student aestheticians

Pregnant Kate Middleton and Prince William have escaped dreary, winter London for a babymoon holiday on the ultra-exclusive Carribean island of Mustique.
Expecting their first child together, the Duchess, 31, and Duke, 30, are kicking back in a luxury villa with a $30,000-a-week price tag - with her folks!
The babymoon is a family affair, apparently. The couple flew out a few days ago to join Kate Middleton's parents, Carole and Michael Middleton.

In 2013, the Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF) invested CHF 819 million in basic research, the highest amount to date. Compared to the previous year, this represents an increase of 8%.
As stated in the latest annual report, the SNSF approved more than 3400 research proposals to the tune of CHF 819 million. Compared to the previous year, this corresponds to an increase of CHF 64 million or 8% (2012: CHF 755 million). The additional funds were mainly invested in long-term medical studies, research infrastructures and the promotion of young scientists.
As in the previous years, biology and medicine received the largest share of the approved funding, namely 40%. Mathematics, natural and engineering sciences received 33% and the humanities and social sciences 27%.
Stable number of applications
In 2013, the SNSF invested more than half of its funds – CHF 416 million – in project funding, its main funding scheme. This money will enable scores of researchers to realise their projects. Between 2005 and 2011, the number of applications in project funding increased continually, namely by 37% in total. In the past two years, the numbers have remained high but stable.
Commitment to young Researchers
In 2013, the SNSF funded a total of 4500 doctoral students and 2500 postdocs via projects and programmes. In addition, it made available CHF 180 million for career funding schemes, thus supporting 1100 young researchers who aim to pursue an academic career.
"We must persuade young talents to become researchers and ensure that the conditions for them are right," says Martin Vetterli, President of the National Research Council. In 2013, the SNSF implemented various measures aimed at improving conditions for young researchers in Switzerland. These included return grants in the case of fellowships abroad, family support measures and a 7% increase in the salaries of doctoral students.
"The SNSF can look back on a very successful year, but a lot remains to be done, particularly with regard to the promotion of young researchers," Vetterli sums up. The SNSF will therefore give great weight to the promotion of young researchers in its forthcoming multi-year programme, which is currently in preparation.
The Swiss National Science Foundation (SNSF)
Every year, the SNSF supports over 3,400 projects involving approximately 14,000 researchers. It is thus Switzerland's foremost institution in the promotion of scientific research. Its core task is the evaluation of research proposals. By awarding public research money based on a competitive system, the SNSF contributes to the high quality of Swiss research. Mandated by the federal authorities, the SNSF supports all academic disciplines, from history via medicine through to the engineering sciences.

Obama's Path to Progress: Protecting Farmworker Kids
November 21, 2014Many people hold on to the image of children gathering eggs in the yard or dumping a pail of slop in front of an appreciative sow as the true and full extent of child farm labor. But the reality of life on a farm can be much different. In fact, the awful truth is that hundreds of kids who enjoyed Thanksgiving with their families last year won't be able to this year because they died in an agriculture-related incident in the last twelve months.

The best part of having Chanukah in November this year: I have yet to hear a syllable of Christmas jealousy from my kids and I've already planned out themes for all eight nights.
Here are a few things I fantasize about doing to my children when they're grown up as payback for their behavior now.
Here's the story of how I began our nightly prayer ritual in hopes of calming my oldest son, who still resists bedtime with Tyrannosaurus tenacity.
When my husband first suggested keeping Shabbat six years ago, I balked at the idea of interrupting my already interrupted life. But we worked out our own observance that actually does just the opposite.

TUESDAY, July 26 (HealthDay News) -- Increased optimism is associated with a decreased risk of stroke in older adults, even after adjusting for sociodemographic, behavioral, biological, and psychological stroke risk factors, according to a study published online July 21 in Stroke.
Eric S. Kim, from the University of Michigan in Ann Arbor, and colleagues investigated the associations between dispositional optimism and stroke incidence in a nationally representative group from a Health and Retirement Study. A total of 6,044 adults (2,542 men and 3,502 women), aged 50 years and older, who were stroke-free at baseline were included in the analysis, which was adjusted for chronic illnesses; self-rated health; and relevant sociodemographic, behavioral, biological, and psychological factors. The participants were followed up for two years.
The investigators found that adults with higher optimism had a lower risk of stroke. When optimism was measured on a scale from three to 18, each unit increase in optimism was associated with an age-adjusted odds ratio of 0.90 for stroke. Even after adjustments for sociodemographic, behavioral, biological, and psychological stroke risk factors, the effect of optimism remained significant.
"Dispositional optimism was associated with a reduced risk of stroke in a prospective and nationally representative sample of American adults, aged >50 years, who were stroke-free at baseline," the authors write.
