Quality Time with My Girl and Mega Bloks Barbie™ Build 'n Play #FabMansion
This post was written by the Experimental Mommy. While a product was received to facilitate this review, all opinions remain 100% mine.
The cold weather is rolling in and with it was come sinus problems for my youngest daughter. Unfortunately, she had to stay home from school with my Dad (who graciously offered to babysit). In an effort to find an activity that they would both enjoy doing together, I pulled out the Mega Bloks Barbie™ Build 'n Play Fab Mansion. Perfect…it's quiet, it's stationary, it's creative and it's fun!
You're the designer with the Build 'n Play Fab Mansion by Mega Bloks Barbie™. Snappy modular rooms make it easy to build and decorate the perfect mansion for your Barbie™ and Skipper™ mini fashion figures. Design your dream house and arrange the rooms any way you want. Build the bed with beautiful canopy, put the big screen in just the right spot, and set up the perfect vanity for lots of fashion fun! When you're done building and arranging the mansion, relax under the big umbrella on the patio, take a bubbly bath, or kick back for a super fun movie party with Barbie™ and Skipper™ mini fashion figures!
My Dad, being a retired civil engineer, loves to build things and his granddaughter is definitely following in his footsteps. I left them alone, headed to work and was stunned to see the entire mansion completed when I returned. My Dad said the picture instructions made it very easy for my 6 year old daughter (a beginning reader) to take the lead on the project. My daughter said she loved decorating with the included stickers and making Barbie cook hotdogs on the patio for lunch!
Both my Dad and my daughter loved spending quality time together away from the television and electronics. In fact, my Dad said he thinks he had more fun than expected and now he knows exactly what to get my daughter for Christmas. The Mega Bloks Barbie Build 'n Play Fab Mansion retails for $39.99, but one lucky reader will win one right here (U.S. only)! Enter below:
We're Having a Not So Scary Halloween with Netflix
With the scariest day of the year just around the corner, my daughters have been increasingly nervous about what things go bump in the night. My two girls are a lot of things but one of them is not brave which makes Halloween the holiday least anticipated in our house. Don't get me wrong, they LOVE trick-or-treating but after the pumpkins are full of candy, they will want to head straight home.
So, instead of heading to haunted houses, we plan on having a "not so scary" movie night at home to celebrate. Thankfully, Netflix has a whole host of Halloween themed (but kid friendly) movies we can feature. If your little ghost and goblins would rather snuggle under the safety of a blanket with Mom and Dad on Halloween check out these Netflix finds.

DIY Halloween Crafts with Cricut Explore
When the wind changes and Fall rolls in to Southeast Louisiana, something comes over me. Not only do I want to eat everything pumpkin and scent my home with Fall spices, but I want to be crafty. The cooler weather awakens my brain (which is typically left dominant and loves everything math and science) and creativity flows. The only problem is that I have grand ideas but no skills to execute. Until now….
I recently received a Cricut Explore to test and it has quickly become my magic wand of crafting. I finally have a way to get those ideas out of my brain and into my home. So, I wanted to share with you a few things I made with Halloween just around the corner.
But first, and introduction to the Cricut Explore:
Cricut is an electronic cutting machine that lets you choose an image or online template (Make It Now Project) to click and cut in minutes. With 50,000+ images to choose from and/or customize the possibilities are endless. Cut on vinyl, iron-on, paper, fabric, paper decor, signage, wall decals, lampshades and more – you dream up the surface and design.
After opening the box, I couldn't wait to set up my new toy and honestly it took all of maybe 5 minutes. Simply plug it in to the USB of your computer and follow the easy install directions. My daughters wanted to make pumpkins for our front porch, so I searched the images for pumpkin faces and we got to work picking our favorite. After a lengthy discussion, we decided on a black cat.
The image was only 99 cents to purchase and I placed it on my online canvas. A bought some black waterproof vinyl since the pumpkins would be in the elements and placed it (still attached to it's backing) on the provided green sticky Cricut mat. Next, load the mat into the Cricut and press the arrow. Select the material you will be cutting (in this case it was vinyl) and finally, press the flashing Cricut icon and watch your machine cut your masterpiece before your eyes.
Using the tool that looks suspiciously like a dental instrument, remove your decal from it's backing and place on the surface you wish to decorate. Because my pumpkin was not flat, I found it a bit tough to place the large cat decal onto a round surface but after searching for video tutorials, I found that using transfer tape may solve the issue next time.
Warning: this process is addictive. I may have immediately run to our local craft store and bought several items to decorate including the adorable purple mason jar craft seen above which is perfect to serve Witches Brew this Halloween.
I absolutely love the Cricut Explore. It was so easy to use and the results look completely professional. I cannot wait to make my daughters' teacher gifts during the holiday season. Cricut crafts for everyone! Follow me on Pinterest and check out my Cricut Inspiration Board to get some more ideas on what you can accomplish.

Top 6 Halloween Safety Tips with Rayovac
This post is written by the Experimental Mommy. While a sample was received to facilitate this review, all opinions remain 100% mine.
With Halloween right around the corner, my daughters are about ready to bust with excitement. The parties, costumes, and trick-or-treats are hard to resist but as a Mom, I need to make sure my girls are prepared for any potential hazards under the cover of night on Halloween. Here are some tips to make sure your ghouls and goblins stay safe while they roam the streets in search of sweet treats.
1. Have "the talk" with your kids. I take this as an opportunity to review the Stranger Danger rules, how to dial 911, and make sure my girls know that running off alone is not an option. As an added protective measure, I always write my phone number inside their treat bag in case we get separated.
2. Avoid all black costumes. I know this can be hard during Halloween but an all black costume can be very hard for cars traveling your neighborhood to see. If a dark colored costume is a necessity, make sure to apply adhesive reflectors.
3. Utilize crosswalks. While it is tempting to run across the street to the decorated home giving out candy apples, make sure to cross only at crosswalks.
4. Inspect the loot. My girls know they may not eat from the candy bag until Mom approves.
5. Wear age appropriate attire. While my daughters feel like all princesses should wear 3 inch heels, I know that is a recipe for broken ankle.
6. Light the way with glow in the dark accessories and flashlights. Or conquer two birds with one stone by taking along the Rayovac Glow in the Dark Flashlight. With a beam distance of 59 feet, a super bright 14 LED light and a glow in the dark rubber grip, ghosts along your path will not be able to hide! During the month of October, Rayovac is offer $1 off using code GLOWINTHEDARK and free shipping on orders over $25.
What are your tips for a happy, healthy and safe Halloween?
Fall into Fashion with RUUM Amercian Kid's Wear
Some days, I think I have a runway in my home. Oh yes, I have two fashionistas who are NOT shy about expressing their fashion style and strutting their stuff. You can imagine the squeals when they had the opportunity to check out Fall looks from RUUM (pronounced room) American Kid's Wear.
RUUM is built around style, trend and comfort and has been seen on the backs of mini celebs such as Suri Cruise, Harper Beckham, North West and the twins of Sarah Jessica Parker. But above all, RUUM strives to help boys and girls look their best by feeling their best.
Lily paired a RUUM floral raglan shirt with super soft skinny cords which was a perfect compliment to the first Fall day here in New Orleans. The shirt and pants retail for $26.50 each but right now the entire site is 25% off!
Because we don't expect Fall to last too long here, Aubrie's layered look is perfect when the temps rise again here in the South. She loved the sequin heart tee which is on sale for less than $12. As the sun went down, she reached for the High Low Cardigan to fight the chills.
Don't miss any of the latest fashion trends for kids by following RUUM on Twitter and Facebook. What are your kids wearing this Fall?

Man, 20, arrested in crash that killed local teacher
Updated On: Mar 12 2013 08:26:18 PM EDT
A 20-year-old man has been arrested and charged who driving under the influence in a crash that killed a beloved Middleborough teacher.
James Braga, 61, was pronounced dead at the scene of the crash Saturday night on Route 44.
Zachery Lemmo was arrested Tuesday. He will be arraigned on charges of motor vehicle homicide while under the Influence of intoxicating liquor on Wednesday in Wareham District Court.
"My father was extremely privileged to live in this town and spent every day enjoying this community," said the victim's son, James Braga. "My father was not afraid of this moment, and I think what he would be most upset by is how upset this town is right now."
Family and friends say Braga was a Middleborough native and Vietnam-era Air Force veteran who was dedicated to the children of town. He taught business at the high school until retiring several years ago, and also coached boys' soccer.
Braga is survived by his wife and three sons.

This slightly edited recipe comes to you from the awesome blog http://sallysbakingaddiction.com/ - I made it with ww flour, and it was super delish! Even the parrots went nuts for it! (Then again, they eat pretty much everything...) I did toss the frozen blueberries in a heaping tablespoon of flour, to prevent blue muffins. This is definitely a keeper!

Class was very well run, with friendly, accessible, clear instruction. From the class description I was expecting to have more general Excel overview included, which would have been helpful, as the level of data being used for the class examples was quiet high. But even without that, the information was still manageable even for unexperienced Excel users like myself.

This class was great, but my only feedback would be that I don't think it's accurate in the description to say: This Excel class is perfect for those who are new to Excel, have been using Excel without any training or need to gain a solid grasp of how to use it effectively. This was a much more advanced class than beginner excel level. The examples and formulas were complicated. But overall I learned a lot and I liked the format and the manual is very helpful.

I thought this class was great. Only 5 sessions in which to learn a lot, but instructor Mikelle was incredibly knowledgeable and paced the classes evenly. She was also available by email to answer questions outside of class. Bonus that she brought current, real world experience to her instruction abilities. Grateful to have taken the class with her. Also, head client manager Faye was so helpful and cheerful the whole way through! 5 stars for NYIM and this class.
Attended: SPSS Essentials
My only suggestion would be that the instructor distribute something in writing to correspond with the basic points covered. It is pretty much impossible to take notes during the session because it is so fast moving. Very hard to retain any of the instructions. If he would distribute basic written instructions on what he covers, the student could come away with something that they could continue to work with after the course. For this reason the course is very overpriced for what you get from it.

Attended: How to Create a Dynamic Website or Blog with WordPress
I erroneously assumed that given the cost and length of this class, it would be well worth the investment. The room was uncomfortably hot and the instruction was dry and not as helpful as expected. At the end of the day, I walked out with minimal understanding of Wordpress and a hefty manual to study on my own. The organization offers the opportunity to return for the same class, but who wants to risk yet another disappointing day?

Jun 21, 2013It takes Depths of Peril formula and twists it for space combat and other improvements over original DoP.
TBH, althugh Drox Operative is a perfect fun game, for me it lacks a bit of personality, specially if you come from DoP.

Feb 28, 2013All in all, I enjoyed Drox Operative. It's a niche game, certainly – graphically bland with some intriguing gameplay that situates itself somewhere between a realtime strategy game and a roguelike style RPG, offering a whole lot of replay value to those who end up getting into the game.
Feb 3, 2013Drox Operative is an absolutely unique game. There is nothing quite like it out there and if you are looking for that new experience, you are guaranteed to find it here.

Many thanks to bowsprite for these photos; Pretty Lamb raises the bar for unusual names. Click here for more "pretty" fleet. Or here: http://tugster.wordpress.com/?s=pretty
Here was 17, a reminder of what this series is about: I'm avoiding the word miscellaneous.
First, from Birk Thomas . . . a closer-up of another Blount this week. Doesn't it share some spirit of 1960 Ford blue?
From bowsprit, who wanted to know why a scalloper was headed southbound along Manhattan the other day, the windy day? Well, I'm resisting the chance to set up an April Fool's post . . . it was actually in the sixth boro to escape the stormy seas and 30′ PLUS waves out where it normally works. Endurance is no timid scallop boat . . .
I've been eager to share this assemblage of old calendar, baseball card, and mermaid bottle openers from Greenport, a place with a distinctly New England ship-building history feel. Are any of these anywhere still extant? Click here for a photo of a City Island, NY yard that once built them.
Anyone know which sixth boro regular is a triple screw? Answer follows.
Here's Bayou Dawn getting some new skin a few weeks back.
I'm putting up this post with my apartment windows open . . . spring has vanquished winter . . so it's time for a few photos of winter's recent oppression. Ever wonder how the loader gets to the bottom of the hold of a bulker?
Odigitria came here with salt a few weeks back and those holds that were then filled with gleaming white minerals might now be filled with dull black stone now.
As summer gets cooer, I'm imagining doing some research on these boats and the larger tenders. When I see a buoy boat, I imagine an Elco in industrial disguise.
I took these photos less than six weeks ago, and my finger are only just now thawed out.
Thanks to Birk and bowsprit for the first two photos. All others by Will Van Dorp.
Let me know what you think that triple screw is.
Time to clear the decks for spring!
By the way, did anybody catch a photo of DSV Joseph Bisso coming through the KVK this morning?
Care for a shot of Melville? ""Take almost any path you please, and ten to one it carries you down in a dale, and leaves you there by a pool in the stream. There is magic in it. Let the most absent-minded of men be plunged in his deepest reveries–stand that man on his legs, set his feet a-going, and he will infallibly lead you to water, if water there be in all that region. Should you ever be athirst in the great American desert, try this experiment, if your caravan happen to be supplied with a metaphysical professor. Yes, as every one knows, meditation and water are wedded for ever."
Paraphrase that a bit, take liberties, and you might come up with: "When you gallivant, chances are you'll end up in the water." If Melville were around the sixth boro these days, he might add something about the likelihood of seeing folks with digital cameras and–if among those gallivants there's a bowsprite–inks/charcoal pencils too.
The whale lives
here, 100 miles plus east of the sixth boro's easternmost reaches and if you go
up these stairs marked by a rendering of the orange ferry John F. Kennedy, you'll
see this . . . 38 pieces of bowsprit's art on display.
The exhibit called "Working Girls of New York Harbor" is up now til the end of May.
And if you feel a thirst that water fails to quench, the exhibit is located one floor above stainless steel vats filled with thousands of gallons of fermenting, living brews.
Here's the front of the exhibit postcard, with evidence that bowsprite has turned her gaze and inked what she saw in increasingly distant waters.
Oh . . and the opening's tonight in Greenport. Gotta run. More Greenport soon.
All photos here by Will Van Dorp.
What on earth–or on the river–could cause all these NYWaterways ferries to stick so close to the terminal? Like fish in a weir . . . must be something big around . . . although I see no vessel between Resolute and Robert E. McAllister on AIS . . .
Praise the day! Bowsprite–who loves gray or otherwise stealthy and can sometimes clear away the miasma and draw them, if you ask her nicely– ascended to a rooftop yesterday to see what MIGHT lurk between the two aforementioned tugboats.
Here is the current bearer of that name, but there've been at least six prior iterations.
She passes the clock–now being restored–and the light
but I was not there. So here's my chance to place another government boat in the proximity of Robbins Reef.
Bowsprite, my favorite harbor illustrator, snapped all fotos except this last one above–of USACE Hayward–which I took.
For another of her ink renderings of sixth boro details, click here.
Random, recent, and variously sourced.
The closeup of Nanticoke pushing Doubleskin 57 toward the Goethals Bridge below comes compliments of Allen Baker.
I took this foto of Robert E. McAllister.
Marie J. Turecamo here assists Barney Turecamo, pushing
the 118,000 barrel barge Georgia.
Four of the Dann Marine tugs: l to r, Emerald, Chesapeake in the distance, First, and Calusa . . . all Coast.
Pegasus . . . the former John E. McAllister and so much more . . . the only tug in the sixth boro that today still excurses (yup . . that's a word!) for the public.
First Coast, the former
Morania No. 18 . . . See the traces of "R–A–N" in the painted metal?
Over in the East River, it's Bruce A. and
Charles D. McAllister. See the McAllister striped Rosenwach wooden water tank on the building upper skyline left?
From l'amiga . . it's another shot of Patricia, a 1963 tug built in Port Deposit, MD.
And last but not least . . . just cellphone-snapped by chance by Birk Thomas yesterday, it's Miss Lis, which at this writing is about to steam past Sandy Hook on her way out of the sixth boro. What's remarkable about this foto is that Birk caught this Tradewinds tug in the last two miles of a journey that started in LA! I feel like there should be a brass band playing or some other celebration of completion. Click here to my previous "seeing" of another Tradewinds tug.
Click on this foto below . . . and if you have a Facebook account, you should be able to see Tradwinds Towing's FB page.
Fotos should be credited as I tried to indicate; non credited ones by Will Van Dorp.
All fotos here from yesterday . ..
Liberty Service as you may never have seen her. Here (third foto in this link) she was four years ago.
Ditto Huron Service. Repainting on Huron seems farther along than that on Liberty. Here's how Huron Service looked a year and a half ago. Get ready for Genesis Energy.
In the past year, this Pegasus has sprouted an upper wheelhouse; compare with here.
Welcome to the waters around Houston. Well . .. I do mean the 118,000-barrel barge married to Linda Moran. Uh . . . do tugs and barges ever get divorced?
Trucks on the water pushed by Shawn Miller.
I realized only later that–had my conveyance lingered here–I would have seen Catherine C. Miller push past with FIVE trailers/tractors on a barge. See her in the distance there beyond the bow of RTC 83.
Reinauer Twins waits alongside RTC 104 with a faux lighthouse in the background.
Lucy Reinauer–earlier Texaco Diesel Chief built in Oyster Bay NY–is the push behind RTC 83.
pushed (ok, will. . . open eyes. thanks for the correction.) moved alongside by Taurus. See some of my previous Taurus fotos here and here.
And thanks to wide-eyed bowsprite, a vessel I've not seen before pushing stone. It's Patricia. She reminds me of a vessel I spotted along the road a few years back . . . Hoss.
So, this is the "plus" in the title, the group-sourcing request portion of this post: what company is operating Patricia?
And another question . . . from an eagle-eyed upriver captain. Notice the weather instruments on this channel marker just off Bannerman's Island (I am planning to do another post on this unique location north of West Point.) And . . .
here are more weather instruments on this federally-maintained channel marker off the Rondout. Questions: who's responsible for these and is there a website where the data collected can be monitored?
All fotos by Will Van Dorp, except for the last three, which come from bowsprite and Capt. Thalassa.
Speaking of bowsprite, today she's running Radio Lilac and I'll be there tending bar. Here's something of the inspiration. Come on by if you have the time. Teleport in if you're otherwise out of range.
Here's a collage of images as my last roundup 2013 post:
a half dozen working tugboats and a covered barge as seen looking east from the Second Street Bridge,
a float plane that might have imagined this to be a different type of gathering,
a swimmer in the water either doing a northern style Richard Halliburton re-enactment or setting out to do an underwater survey mission as the lock is –unbeknownst to her–about to open,
(For more complete info on what's going on here with the swimmer, check this post by bubbling-blowing bowsprite.)
my possible future employer shoehorning an Eriemax passenger vessel into the first lock in the flight,
waterdogs go fishing,
Onrust resplendant,
a Dutch barge,
Urger dried out for some emergency surgery along
with Tappan Zee II,
Eighth Sea and Bill's exercise machine,
Stu's Dragonfly,
the pilot's understanding of the pushoff contest,
and in Troy, some public art designed to assist memory . . . the Soldier's and Sailor's Monument with goddess Columbia blowing her horn high above Troy, as seen from Tug44.
All fotos by Will Van Dorp. See you in Waterford in 2014, I hope.
And the winner of the speed race . . .
in a record setting 0 days, 0 hours, and precisely five minutes and 0 seconds . . ..
. . . sorry . . . this is part of the day too; click on the foto for bowsprite's rare foto coverage.
The winner of the speed event will be revealed, uncovered, somewhat shorn . . . at the end of this post. But first, besides the tattoo contest, other contests include line toss.
Jamie of Susan Miller shows how it's done.
Then . . there's sanctioned, precision pushing.
Can you spot the difference between the white-and-green tug to the right above and the one below?
Vane had twins in the race, and one near-clone.
I'm not sure what this event would be called . . . mustering maybe.
There's sizing up and
On the pier, winners wear not laurels but spinach . . . . Someone inspired by the anthropological study of the Nacirema people might write this up as a study of a late summer ritual called Ecar Toabgut.
There are raffles that landed some this bowsprite print of a boat that represents–I believe–the first Vane participation in this race on
September 2, 2007.
And after the race–if it hadn't happened before–boats might pose with the great Lady.
Here are some of the crew of the fastest boat . . .
All fotos by Will Van Dorp.
Congratulations to the crew of Working Harbor Committee for their work; many thanks to all the companies and crews for participating.
And let's make this Tubing Tuesday, with a video of the race in NYC, the one in Gloucester and this tour in port of Antwerpen . . al this same weekend.
Wordless foto essay on vessel fronts. See a bowsprite rendition here.
OK, I guess I can't be wordless with this one above. Clue: vessel above is the same as vessel below.
I took this one of Woody Guthrie and Clearwater three months ago at Croton.
Foto of Woody Guthrie's improvised figurehead was sent to me by Steve Schwartz. Thanks much, Steve. All others by Will Van Dorp.

Finishing up – finally and forever – that project whose deadline has been looming over my head, so here is a quick look around the 'sphere.
Peter Wehner looks at revisionist history going on under our nose. This is a must-read, and a keeper.
If you're wondering how the "Bush Lied about WMD" meme keeps living, Lorie Byrd can tell you. It lives with great assistance by the press. About now seems a good time to resurrect this compilation of precisely what the Dems said about WMD all those years ago.
AJ Strata is wondering if the GOP Contract with America and its pledge that no congressperson should be above the law, is dead in the water – and what that might mean.
Ann Althouse wonders just how much attention Madonna needs.
Which leads me to ask, am I the only one who finds her latest stunts merely predictable and perfunctory? Hey Madonna, it takes no courage to ape the Crucifixion of Christ or make a vulgar joke about George W. Bush – those are the safest things in the world to do – you want to really be daring, try this. Instead of simulating sex and bondage (didn't you DO that back in the '80′s?) why not come onstage wearing a Burka…yeah, that's it…and then you can have your crew simulate a genital mutilation or an honor killing…got it? Now that's edgy, honey, especially if you then have some dancers show up like US Troops who liberate you, and you kiss a mask of George W. Bush…now THAT would be brave and daring. THAT would be something worth looking at, too. THAT would justify the press' pavlovian response to every ringing of your bell.
Speaking of the Pavlovian Press, the NY Times offers up its front page to the wonderfulness of Bill and Hill and their great marriage. The press, so quick to call Bush "incurious" has so little curiosity about these people beyond, "how'd you get to be so great?" Notice tough questions are never asked, and even the easy ones are never put to anyone outside the Clinton sphere. Ding, ding, ding, "Hillary needs you, guys," and the press – salivating – runs. They will be content to carry her on their shoulders, all the way to the WH, without ever asking her a serious or difficult question, and once installed, her every move will be the perfect move. And the GOP will be warned by the press not to play obstructionist with any of her judges or policies…because that would be bad. Or something.
One question for Hillary: why does she think we need 50 BILLION dollars for research into ethanol? Seems like a lot of money to research what is already working, doesn't it?
There is a slight chance the far-right will, like Wyle E. Coyote, manage to run on air fast enough to prevent a big fall…right? They might. Sure. I believe it, too. Of course, they might not. They might fall into the desert and make a big hole, climb out of it and find the Hillarian Roadrunner beep-beeping and leaving track marks on their heads.
Speaking of far-right, Siggy puts them on his analyst couch as does Doc Sanity, who also analyses the left. There is a good piece here from Michael Novak on why President Bush might be called "The Bravest President."
Confederate Yankee wonders if Hezbollah's pre-emptive surrender is a tip off?
Maxed Out Mama has a very interesting post on the Bird Flu which you should go read, and another interesting post on Chief Justice John Roberts' remarkable first year leading the SCOTUS.
When this many people take a cartoon this seriously, you have to say they just don't have enough to do. I begin to think these protesting professors also do not have enough to do. ABP notes they're not the most tolerant folks when it comes to dissent. I thought the first and most basic tenent of liberalism is that people were entitled to have their own point of view, and deserved full respect for it. I guess I was wrong.
Nuns in the news: I'm not sure exactly what Rocco is annoyed about here but the nun part is pretty cool (story here). Some Benedictines in Arizona also seem to be flourishing. And our Dominican friends are messing around with a camera of a rainy Sunday.
Hugh Hewitt's got Tee Shirts and their bright red. I love red….

The question that motivates my work is: How do we experience the world?
My interests are generally centrered around the study of the mechanisms that support meaningful interaction with the environment through sensorimotor coordination, in vision and touch. To describe these mechamisms, I employ methods from psychophysics, electrophysiology and neuroimaging, as well as mathematical modelling.

La Mouette Noire ("Black Seagull" in French) is a comic series rendered in 3D by an artist going by the online name "eyeteeth". It follows the adventures of the eponymous character, a Stripperific Pirate Girl who's also the heroine of a (fictional) video game.Mara de Oiseau, or "Mara" (as she is known to close friends), had just turned 18, and decides that she wants to follow in her mother's footsteps as a swashbuckling pirate. Along with her first mate, Isabella ("Easy"), Mara begins her adventures, while being fully aware that she's in a video game.A charm of the series (aside from the highly NSFW content, according to your mileage) is the amount of lampshading regarding just about every video game trope there is out there. It's also way on the Silly end in the Sliding Scaleof Silliness Versus Seriousness.Six issues of the series have been released, and the seventh is being updated weekly for subscribers. The first two issues can be read for free at eyeteeth's Yahoo! Group and Tumblr. Previews, concept art and other information not found in the series are over at the deviantART page.

I was recently at an interview and was asked to solve a problem similar to this one, how would you code this for efficiency, I have a feeling my answer was not the best way to do this:
Nine nickels and a traditional balance are sitting in front of you.
All nickels have the same weight except for one counterfeit, which is slightly heavier than the others.
Using Ruby, how would you code this so that it uses the balance the lowest number of times possible to guarantee you've found the counterfeit nickel?

The Kentucky Center for School Safety announces Kentucky Safe Schools Week tol be observed October 19-25, 2014.
This year's theme "LEAN On Me; Stop the Bullying!" focuses on the culture of the school and the interdependence of students and staff to make their school safe, warm and welcoming. Within this overall culture students will be encouraged to support each other, connect with the staff and be diligent as they watch out for others in need. Fundamental to the "LEAN On Me" concept is straight from the song lyrics, "sometimes in our lives we all have pain and we all have sorrow" learning to depend on fellow classmates, trust the adults at school and to treat others well. This "culture of kindness" will support the subtitle of "STOP the Bullying" by getting to the root of the problem before episodes escalate. Click the icon above to take the "LEAN on Me; Stop Bullying!" Pledge.

Ezra and Dorothy Pound: Letters in Captivity, 1945-1946
January 1, 1999
After the fall of Mussolini, Ezra Pound was imprisoned at the American Disciplinary Training Center in Pisa, Italy for his pro-fascist broadcasts made over Rome Radio during WWII. It was during his incarceration that he composed the draft material for his famous Pisan Cantos.

In March 1961, President John F. Kennedy announced the formation of the Alliance for Progress, a program dedicated to creating prosperous, socially just, democratic societies throughout Latin America.

Arethusa: Vile Bodies, Roman Satire and Corporeal Discourse
October 1, 1998
"This is an essay about bodies: how they are represented and what that representation reveals about the fears, desires, and attitudes of the society that produced them. Concepts of physiology and corporeality determine identity--both male and female, but especially female--throughout ancient texts. I am interested in discovering how Roman satire defined the relationship between body and "self" for women: how it shaped, controlled, and represented the female self through the gendering of the body. My original intention in writing this essay was to examine the bodies of women as they are represented in the Roman satirists. But I soon realized that I was both confining myself too narrowly and also spreading myself over too wide an area. As I reread the texts, two things became clear: female bodies could only be examined in the context of bodies in general, and Juvenal has a unique way, among all the Roman satirists, of focalizing bodies." -

I thougt that Jews, Christians and Muslims believe in the same God but fight each other and within their groupings over details of various prophets etc. If He exists, I wonder what He (or She) makes of it all.
In Holland they have Sinta Claus, who comes eariler (5th Dec) with his Moorish (maybe Muslim?) helper - Zwart Piet (rather non PC Black Peter! So even in the Father Christmas world there is rivalry. I believe that the date of Christmas was chosen to coincide with the old Pagan Yueltide so things are alittle confused all round.

Dear Peter
Insurance is a formal process and if shipment is signed delivered in
good order it means it was delivered in good order.
You can discuss the situation with the courier if they agree to accept
responsibility for the damage. We suspect that they will refuse to
accept responsibility because the shipment was delivered and signed in
good order. If the courier confirms to us that the damage was made
during delivery we will be able to claim transport insurance.
All the best, Margaret
