Pros also should closely examine claims that products qualify for points in the USGBC's LEED system. "We sometimes hear, 'Our products are LEED-certified,'" says Nate Kredich, vice president of residential market development for the USGBC. "That's obviously false. LEED is concerned with the overall design and performance of the house." Some manufacturers might say their products "qualify" for LEED points, but, Kredich says, "how that product is used is more important than its inclusion."
Ask and Receive
Beyond certification, Case believes the other path to "green salvation" is for pros to become more demanding. "Short of actual certification would be encouraging suppliers to be more transparent with the information and environmental claims," he says.
Makower compares the demands for product information to the call for more nutrition facts for food: "You can now find out exactly how much fat, cholesterol, or sodium is in a burger or an order of fries." He also points to architect and designer Michelle Kaufmann, who has created "Sustainability Facts" for home designs that include information such as energy usage and carbon dioxide emissions.
The Federal Trade Commission (FTC) also may be lending some assistance. The FTC's "Guides for the Use of Environmental Marketing Claims," commonly known as the "Green Guides," help marketers avoid making environmental claims that are unfair or deceptive. Because of the proliferation of green claims, the commission is reviewing the guides this year, more than a year earlier than it originally planned, and the new guides could be ready as soon as 2009.
While the obscuring brush of greenwashing can paint any product in a hazy green sheen, a steady regimen of education, research, and discerning questions can chip through the layers to reveal a clear path to sustainable building. -- BUILDING PRODUCTS
Greenwashing isn't just a manufacturing issue. Building professionals also must avoid making similar mistakes in their own sales discussions and literature. Among pros, "There is some clear greenwashing, but it's well-intentioned," says Scot Case of TerraChoice Environmental Marketing. "Builders are seeing growing demand for green buildings, but not taking the time to become fully educated."
For example, some inexperienced contractors are relying on manufacturers' sales information that is fraught with greenwashing and not fully investigating the claims, he says. "I'm finding that even in the greener parts of the country, because the demand is growing so rapidly, there are people with no experience jumping in and making things more difficult for the real green designers," he says. They can charge "ridiculously" low prices by short-changing the consumer with products that aren't truly green, he explains.
Even if pros are using truly green products, materials are only a small part of what makes a home environmentally friendly, argues BuildingGreen's Alex Wilson. If a builder uses all the right products but is constructing a development 20 miles from the nearest store, it exacerbates concerns about sprawl, he says. "To call that development green based on recycled content in the tile in the foyer, that doesn't ring true to me." And if it's a 7,000-square-foot home, "I don't care what the materials are, it's not going to be considered green by many people."
As with product certifications, reputable green building programs can help address greenwashing concerns, says Nate Kredich, vice president of residential market development for the USGBC. "As long as they adhere to the better programs available to them, that will be a safeguard," he says. But, he notes, "If they try to create their own green building system without the guidelines of hundreds of experts, then not only does the buyer need to be aware, but the builder needs to be aware of their liability."
"When manufacturers make claims about their products and builders make claims about their homes, they both need to remember two key points," adds NAHB's Carlos Martin. "Make sure there's an acceptable standard" by which they're judging their product or home, and "make sure there's a third party certifying for that standard."

North Great George's Street, Dublin 1
Great George's Street North has survived much as was when first built in the mid to late 18th century. Even the pavements are composed of the original granite paving slabs. Unusually too, some of the houses are still lived in as private residences but the others have gone the usual way for Georgian houses in Dublin and are occupied by offices and institutions. For years these same residents have fought to preserve the street and prevent intrusive commercialisation and exploitation. In this they have been somewhat successful.

The UT Arlington basketball team hopes a noon start time can jump-start its floundering offense when it hosts Louisiana-Monroe Thursday at the College Park Center.The Mavericks have dropped their first two games in the Sun Belt Conference, but after an opening rout they got much closer on Saturday, falling a buzzer-beater short of sending Little Rock to overtime. Their scoring average and their points allowed average are nearly identical on the season (80.0-79.9), but they've struggled to close out games. Coach Scott Cross attributes that to a lack of toughness that his team needs to find before the conference season gets too deep.Although the Warhawks have struggled this season as well, they're coming off a 103-98 double overtime win over Louisiana-Lafayette on Saturday. The offense is led by Amos Olatayo, who's scoring 15.3 points and grabbing 5.6 rebounds per game.

Ft. Walton Destin Local, Quirky, Quaint, Family, Best bang for your buck?
- c
- ChasingChe Jun 11, 2009 02:01 PM
We are a family of traveling foodies with many mini foodies in the making.
I've searched here, and elsewhere, and am hoping for some recommendations for those little out of the way fantastic finds. Affordable a huge plus. Diners are great, but they seldom have room for a family of 7, so bear that in mind when making your recommendations, please. :)
We love unique, local favorites - no chains, the most affordable we can. Our kids are well-behaved in nice restaurants, but this is a beach trip! We don't mind getting a little dressed up for dinner (have a birthday while we're down there) - but again, affordability is a must.
What'cha got, Okaloosa Island!? :)
We've been visiting Destin for the past 6 years or so. I've blogged about the last couple of visits, with photos - look here:
2008: http://funplayingwithfood.blogspot.co...
Part 1: http://funplayingwithfood.blogspot.co...
Part 2: http://funplayingwithfood.blogspot.co...
Note that Stinky's Fish Camp has moved across the parking lot and the more upscale Lake Place has taken Stinky's building. Stinky's is a casual, but crowded, favorite.
My "go to" in Destin is Harbor Docks - a better value at lunch then at dinner and should be able to accommodate your group's size. Second Dewey Destin's. The kids might also enjoy McGuire's, which is a local 2-outlet business. They brew their own beer, and are more meat than fish oriented, but kitschy, fun and not expensive and their food is pretty good.
Callahan's was a very pleasant surprise for us this year. Family friendly, fresh, and not expensive.
For your special occasion dinner - Commander's Palace might be fun - its a little pricey, but the food we tasted was marvelous and it channels its New Orleans namesake nicely.
Nick's On the Bay is definitely worth the drive - it is a true local treasure. Kid friendly, casual and some of the best crab and alligator I've ever tasted!
I'm hearing good things about Shorty's, which replaced D&K Cafe on Hotz Avenue in Grayton Beach. Also, if you're going to head down 30A, Smiling Fish Cafe is nice; if the weather is nice and it is crowded, you can eat outside!
You should check out this chat board for more info, but bear in mind that it is focused a bit east of Destin. http://www.sowal.com/bb/dining-food/
If you don't mind a drive, Nick's in the sticks is very old Florida and they're usually quite good for seafood. Take the Mid Bay Bridge north to Hwy 20, go east until you get to a little crossroad called Basin Bayou, and try not to hit the owner's chickens when you park.
For chicken wings, Buffalo Reef on Eglin Pkwy is local and pretty affordable. Their super hot wings can make and air commando cry. Haven't been there in a while, but I liked Big City back when I worked downtown, and they're pretty reasonable for lunch. For Thai, I like Jasmine Thai in the strip mall by Destin Publix. In you're craving Asian food, Thai is almost always a better bet than Chinese in these parts.
Local coffee sellers- Maas on US 98 in Ft. Walton Beach, and Emerald Coast Coffee at Emerald Grande in Destin and off Hwy 20 in Bluewater Bay.
Thanks, Nancy - I spent a good part of the day reading many of your blogs and posts on the SoWal forum, coincidentally :)
I'm off to look for these restaurants. If anyone has links to menus and/or website, I'd be MOST appreciative. Google isn't proving too helpful.
re: ChasingChe
To get to the original Dewey's - take 98 down to the very last street before the Okaloosa Bridge and turn right on that street. It will be on your left less than 1 mile from that turn and there is a sign on the driveway.
There is a new incarnation of Dewey's in the same condo monstrosity as Commander's Palace, but I have no experience with it.
Glad you liked the blog - however, we didn't have any dietary restrictions. 5 no-glucose kids - that's a tough one. Please report back!
re: NancyH
The new Dewey's is not inside the monstrosity. It's right on US 98 one lot west of the more easy to see from the street (and tourist trap) Fisherman's Wharf restaurant in the harbor area.
re: beachmouse
Thanks for the clarification, Mouse!

The Marshy Point Nature Center is enshrouded in nearly 3,000 acres of natural terrain from the combined Marshy Point Park and neighboring federal land. In this emerald oasis, a variety of wildlife including Barred Owls, Bald Eagles, and Red Fox make their home amongst the three miles of wooded trails and ponds. Hikers and birdwatchers can gather to see these creatures in their natural habitats or take a canoe out to the middle of the Dundee Creek and practice walking back to shore. Throughout the year, the Marshy Point Nature Center also runs activities including a spring festival with a muddy obstacle course and the Popsicle Plunge, which immerses swimmers into the Chesapeake Bay for the sake of charity or really sweaty tendencies.

The Reginald F. Lewis Museum celebrates the achievements of African Americans, especially those from Maryland?which often means expanding on grade-school history lessons. For instance, Betsy Ross is typically credited with making the first American flag. However, one of the museum's rotating exhibits reveals that Grace Wisher, an African American indentured servant, also worked on the original star spangled banner. Dubbed "For Whom It Stands: The Flag and the American People," that exhibit was recognized as one of the country's best in the summer of 2014 by USA Today?in part because it featured a scrap of the real, first flag, covered in the bald eagle feathers that filled the air back then. That's just one of the myriad rotating exhibits that the museum has hosted, to complement permanent collections that highlight Maryland African Americans' endurance through two centuries of slavery, and their artistic and intellectual innovations.
What sets your business apart from your competition?

Having people experience something new, different, and enriching to their lives.
A long fly ball from Oriole Park could hit the row house where, on February 6, 1895, Babe Ruth entered the world and sent chills down the spines of pitchers and outfielders across the country. After the legend earned more than 700 home runs and 2,200 RBIs, his career ended and his life faded, leaving his birthplace to fall into disrepair. In the late 1960s, a campaign restored both it and the adjoining structures to create the Babe Ruth Birthplace Museum. Babe's widow, daughters, and sister collaborated with the museum founders to create exhibits commemorating the record breaker's life and career, filling glass cases with balls and jerseys and restoring his bedroom to how it would have looked the year that the stork pitched the little Bambino through the window.
Originally, this museum also explored the history of the Baltimore Orioles—Ruth's first professional team—and hosted the Baltimore Colts' archives. Its quickly growing collection of artifacts, however, soon led to the need for a larger location. In 2005, the Babe Ruth Birthplace Museum retained those items relating to its titular legend while the rest found a new home in the Sports Legends Museum. This museum occupies the basement and first floor of the historic Camden Station, sprawling throughout 22,000 square feet with exhibits that delve into subjects such as the history of baseball in Maryland and collegiate ball.

Serena wins 5th Wimbledon title
WIMBLEDON, England -- For Serena Williams, the low point came in early 2011, when she spent hours laying around her home, overwhelmed by a depressing series of health scares that sent her to the hospital repeatedly and kept her away from tennis for 10 months.
The high point came Saturday on Centre Court at Wimbledon, when Williams dropped down to the grass, hands covering her face. She was all the way back, a Grand Slam champion yet again.
Her serve as good as there is, her grit as good as ever, Williams was dominant at the start and finish, beating Agnieszka Radwanska of Poland 6-1, 5-7, 6-2 to win a fifth championship at the All England Club and 14th major title overall, ending a two-year drought.
More Wimbledon Coverage
After wallowing in her French Open foibles, Serena Williams decided it was time to win. And that's what she did, writes Greg Garber. Story
Serena Williams has fought through injury and illness to return to the winner's circle at Wimbledon. For those who don't think she cares enough about tennis, her emotional response to the win says it all, writes espnW's Sandra Harwitt. Story
• Bodo: Sky-high stakes
• Bryant: No moral wins for Murray
• Tandon: Men's final preview
"I just remember, I was on the couch and I didn't leave the whole day, for two days. I was just over it. I was praying, like, 'I can't take any more. I've endured enough. Let me be able to get through this,'" said Williams, a former No. 1 whose ranking slid to 175th after a fourth-round loss at the All England Club last year, her second tournament back.
"Coming here and winning today is amazing," she said. "It's been an unbelievable journey for me."
Certainly has.
That's why tears flowed during the on-court trophy ceremony. And why Williams squeezed tight during post-victory hugs with her parents and older sister Venus, who has five Wimbledon titles of her own -- meaning that one pair of siblings that learned to play tennis on public courts in Compton, Calif., now accounts for 10 of the past 13 trophies.
They added their fifth Wimbledon doubles championship Saturday night, teaming to beat Andrea Hlavackova and Lucie Hradecka of the Czech Republic 7-5, 6-4.
"She hasn't had an easy road. Things have happened in her life that you can't predict or control, so it's hard to be in that situation. Things happen that you didn't deserve," said Venus, who is dealing with an autoimmune disease that can cause fatigue. "For her to fight through that and come back and be a champion. ... It was definitely emotional."
A few days after winning Wimbledon for the fourth time in 2010, Serena Williams cut both feet on broken glass while leaving a restaurant in Germany. She needed two operations on her right foot. Then she got blood clots in her lungs, for which she needed to inject herself with a blood thinner. Those shots led to a pool of blood gathering under her stomach's skin, requiring another procedure.
"That made her realize where her life was, really, and where she really belonged and that she really loved the game," said Williams' mother, Oracene Price. "You never appreciate anything until you almost lose it."
Against Radwanska, who was trying to be the first Polish Grand Slam singles champion, Williams was streaky at times, but also superb. She won the first five games and the last five. She compiled a 58-13 landslide of winners. She swatted 17 aces, including four at 114 mph, 107 mph, 115 mph, 111 mph in one marvelous game to pull even at 2-all in the third set. That was part of a momentum-swinging run when Williams claimed 15 of 18 points, and that quartet of aces raised her total for the fortnight to a tournament-record 102, surpassing her own mark of 89 in 2010; it's also more than the top number for any man this year at Wimbledon.
"So many aces," said Radwanska, whose two-week total was 16, "and I couldn't do much about it."
There had been a moment, ever so brief, when it appeared Williams might let Saturday's match slip away. After she breezed through the first set on a day when the wind whipped and the temperature was in the mid-50s, rain arrived, causing a delay of about 20 minutes between sets.
Radwanska, who's been fighting a respiratory illness and blew her nose at a changeover, quickly fell behind 3-1 in the second set. Right there is where she made a stand.
Williams was playing in her 18th major final; Radwanska in her first. Actually, she'd never won a match beyond the fourth round at a Grand Slam tournament until this week. So she acknowledged being "a little bit nervous in the beginning."
But the interruption let her "cool down a little bit," explained Radwanska, who would have risen to No. 1 in the rankings by beating Williams but instead will be No. 2 behind Victoria Azarenka. "When I was going on the court the second time, I just felt like a normal match. Didn't seem like a final anymore, so there was not that much pressure."
Radwanska played her usual steady game, and Williams began making more and more errors. A string of mistakes -- swinging volley into the net, double-fault, backhand long, backhand into the net -- let Radwanska break to even the match at one set apiece. What appeared to be a rather drab final, bereft of any drama, suddenly became interesting.

"She got a little nervous out there, in my opinion. In the second set, I think she might have thought, 'Well, I got this here,'" said Williams' father, Richard.
He also suspected his daughter might have been feeling a twinge of self-doubt connected to her quick exit in late May at the French Open against a woman ranked 111th, Williams' only first-round loss in 48 career major tournaments.
Williams' explanation for her dip against Radwanska?
"I just got too anxious," she said, "and I shouldn't have been so anxious."
Probably not.
Making her Paris performance really seem like an aberration, Williams regained control down the stretch. She won a 16-stroke point with a forehand putaway to get to break point, then went up 3-2 by smacking a big return that left Radwanska flailing at a running backhand.
If Williams is mainly known for her powerful serves and groundstrokes -- she produced 23 baseline winners to her opponent's five -- she also showed off a deft touch, the sort of thing in which Radwanska specializes. Ahead 4-2, Williams earned a second break with a well-disguised forehand drop shot, then raised both arms aloft.
"After that, it was: 'I can definitely do this,'" Williams said.
While Monday's rankings will have her listed at No. 4, there's no doubt who is at the top of the game right now. Seeded sixth at the All England Club, Williams beat the women who were No. 2 (Azarenka), No. 3 (Radwanska) and No. 4 (defending champion Petra Kvitova).
At age 30, Williams is the oldest women's singles champion at any major tournament since Martina Navratilova was 33 when she won Wimbledon in 1990.
And Williams sees no end in sight.
Asked Saturday evening what more she could possibly want, she replied: "Are you kidding? The U.S. Open. The Australian Open. The French Open. Wimbledon, 2013."
Seconds later, she declared: "I have never felt better."

Prepare to flee for your life: somebody "[went] through Reno airport security without being screened." Horrors! Will we survive? Or will planes fall from the sky while bombs murder millions?
Unlikely, the TSA assures us, because it had everything under control: "'The agent [sic for 'Thief and Sexual Assailant'] never lost sight of the suspect'" — hmmm. Possibly a typo for "passenger"? — "'and we continued to pursue the suspect with a variety of security footage,' Reno Airport spokesman Brian Kulpin said." He ludicrously added, "There are no injuries." Whew! For a minute there, I feared broken legs and severed arms en masse.
But Brian wasn't content to quit while he sounded like a mere idiot; he went for full moron: "We have no information right now as to why this individual did this."
Yo, Bri? Call me fanciful, but I'd say the guy wanted to avoid gate-rape and irradiation.

The traditional central-station grid is evolving toward a more distributed architecture, accommodating a variety of resources spread out across the network. An open and thoughtful planning...
Engaging Customers
Look to other industries for lessons on marketing services.
engagement is no longer simply nice to have. Engagement is rapidly becoming a necessary skill that all utilities must acquire. As we start to collect data at a more granular level, this capability will allow companies to access and overlay other data sources to better match the right programs with the right people.
Smart-meter technology has the potential to create new billing paradigms that aren't encumbered by constraints such as meter-read cycles. Programs can be developed that allow customers to select bill dates and bill frequency. Naysayers will present objections regarding such constraints as batch billing windows, data privacy and concerns about the complexity of deploying these campaigns. But if other sectors are deploying technologies to overcome the exact same issues, utilities have to ask, "why can't we?"
In a utility industry with smart meters and accompanying infrastructure, there will be no need to wait until the end of the month to receive a bill. Customers could gain access to their usage information when they want, and enjoy services that in many ways are closer to those they currently have with cell-phone companies. Beyond this, they could set alerts to tell them when certain spending thresholds are met or even perform "what if" analyses on thermostat changes and appliance usage to decrease energy expenses. In time, utilities even could let customers decide for themselves the frequency and timing of their bills, allowing them to synchronize the delivery of bills with their ability to pay. This ultimately will reduce time-consuming arrears collections and will improve positive customer experiences as a result of better-managed consumption. Creating services around the needs of customers results in many more examples than just support for an in-home display.
A recognized part of the smart-meter business case involves better understanding outages and restoration of services. Many questions remain such as: Is the customer significantly represented in this discussion? Will outage notifications grow more sophisticated and indicate the nature of the issue and estimated restoration times? Will customers be able to nominate third parties to receive this information so, for example, neighbors can turn off the water to prevent pipes from freezing or remove food to stop it from spoiling when the customer is away during an outage?
As with any vision, achieving it requires work, but it's best to start with an appreciation of what's possible. Few transformational accomplishments have ever been achieved by setting conservative goals and safe targets.
Right People, Right Products
As this richer tapestry of rates and programs becomes available, how will utility customers know which are right for them? How will they select the rates and demand-response programs that are appropriate for their lifestyles, budgets and behaviors? Customers will look to their utilities for the tools to make data-driven, informed decisions. In turn, utilities can look for lessons from those industries where survival depends on understanding everything about the customers and exceeding their needs and expectations—both realized and unrealized.
Utilities will need to make sure they identify the customers that have the propensity to participate, and the usage to deliver the kinds of load

Rotten: SpongeBob looks so slapped together and indulgently cruddy that its cheapness seems like a thumb in the eye of anyone who paid to see it.
- Amy Biancolli, Houston Chronicle, Friday, November 19, 2004
Fresh: Retains the 2-D charm of the hugely popular Nickelodeon cartoon but adds a few tricks -- a little 3-D here, a little David Hasselhoff there.
- Carla Meyer, San Francisco Chronicle, Friday, November 19, 2004
Rotten: The new feature film has some of the charm of the small-screen original, but it lacks the sustained goofiness of the series.

great for kids and the whole family. if your an adult there isnt really a reason to watch this. has funny moments. B
- bbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbbb1, Wednesday, July 28, 2010
I'll admit that I LOVE Spongebob because it's stupid-funny and I don't have to think about most of it. It appeals to kids and adults alike and 20-30 years from now when all of today's cartoons are long gone, this is the one that people will still remember. Not Ben-10 or that Phineas and Ferb garbage, Spongebob is a true cartoon classic. But for some reason, the movie just didn't pan out all that well. Maybe it's too much live action intertwined or just because for some reason it's too boring but it just doesn't stand up to the regular show. Worth watching, but not much else.
- middleeasternfilms, Sunday, January 3, 2010
Truth be told, I haven't always been a fan of Spongebob. I had heard a lot about the show before, but dismissed it as a weird-looking Nikelodeon product made solely for kids. Not until now, when I took the time to watch some whole episodes (as well as this movie), did I discover and understand why everyone likes it so much. And boy, did it teach me a lesson in not judging something beforehand. Because the more I saw, the more I fell in love with its characters. Not since the golden days of The Simpsons during the 90's, have I enjoyed watching an animated series so much. And I'm happy to say that it was just as great in this larger format. A really enjoyable watch, full of fun and adventure. So if this doesn't put a smile on your face, I regret to inform that you're as humorless as Squidward ;-)

2012 NFL Playoff Picks – Wild Card Round
With the NFL playoffs now arriving, there are four games in this opening wild card round, and they're all going to be big. Only one seems like a sure bet pick, but then again…it's not like my selections have been spot on for most of the season.

Round and round she goes, where the NFL coaching carousel stops…no one really knows.
Around the NFL: Andy Reid to Cards? Chip Kelly to NFL? Mike Holmgren Back Again?
Black Monday is officially over, but now a new time begins in the NFL. That would be a guessing game that's as big as free agency, and it's the wonderment as to which coach will end up where.
Who Should Denver Broncos Fans Pull For This Wildcard Weekend?
While the Broncos wait on their bye week, four AFC teams will go into battle this weekend. Which would provide the most favorable matchup for Denver and which is most likely to be playing in the Mile High City next Saturday?
Injured Denver Broncos Use Bye Week To Rest, Heal
A whole host of Broncos players are using the bye week they earned to heal before their all-important Divisional round and possible Super Bowl run.
Peyton Manning Completes Superb Season For Denver Broncos In Comeback
Manning was the man in 2012, one of a select few truly elite quarterbacks, which was miraculous given the health issues that plagued him in 2011.

Elway Mounts A New, Historical Comeback For The Broncos
The Duke of Denver is exactly the man that should be calling the shots for his beloved Broncos. The way he's built the team, this quickly, is nothing short of miraculous and John Elway should be in line to be the next owner of football in Denver.

All creation is the doings of God's hands, no matter how he did it. When I look at a painting, I can connect somehow with the painter, and the same goes with the universe and God.
The one thing on which the entire Genesis debate hinges is whether we acknowledge the role played by hermeneutics.
From 2012: The entire BioLogos community would like to thank Dr. Keathley not only for his work in writing his introductory essay, but for his willingness to organize a small collection of essays by other Southern Baptist scholars describing their concerns about the BioLogos perspective. We welcome this opportunity to clarify our positions and remove stumbling blocks where possible.
In this week's edition, learn about amphibious dinosaurs, frozen bison mummies, and hummingbird combat.
Pope Francis is reiterating a basic claim in Catholic Christianity: If one acknowledges that God creates by giving creatures not only their existence but also their natures, one can reconcile an evolutionary worldview with the Christian faith.
John Calvin really believed that the sun revolved around the earth, but we shouldn't dismiss the rest of his theology because of this error.
Written by BioLogos Fellow of Biology Dennis Venema, this series of posts is intended as a basic introduction to the science of evolution for non-specialists.
BioLogos president Deb Haarsma responds to Ken Ham's recent comments about Hugh Ross, and pleads for a more gracious conversation between Christians on issues of faith and science.
If discussions of science and religion sometimes get bogged down in Genesis, perhaps that is because they have not made the preparatory journey through the rich material of the Wisdom books.
"We should be slow to accuse another of discarding the authority of Scripture, and therefore denouncing them, just because they interpret Scripture differently than we do."
Read about the death of Wolfhart Pannenberg, still debating creation and evolution, and a really big dinosaur discovery.
This week's news features volcanoes, skeletons, and stars, as well as a thought-provoking new book from InterVarsity press.
While it is true that Goodwin and others believe that their discoveries pose a major challenge to neo-Darwinian orthodoxy, this does not cause them to abandon their belief that the history of life can be explained as the outcome of biological processes!
We feel that the long-term efforts by ForumC to bring these different factions together are beginning to bear fruit. Where the atmosphere at the first conference was at times tense, this second conference was perceived by all those present as more relaxed and open. The willingness to concede past? errors and the problems involved in the respective positions taken was one clear sign of this.
But what I heard on Sundays did not seem to fit with what I experienced of the world the rest of the week. Growing up in New Mexico in the cottonwood bosque of the Rio Grande valley provided everything for a kid to become a biologist. I roamed along the river, cooked over cottonwood fires, ate wild asparagus, watched clouds form thunderheads over the distant peaks of the Sangre de Cristo Mountains.
Musician Michael Gungor talks about the recent controversy over the evolution of his views on evolution, science, and biblical authority.
The purpose of Jesus's art was to give verbal, visual, and dramatic forms to those complicated and confounding relationships, symmetries, and harmonies between himself, the father and spirit, and between the triune God and the world… Such creative expressions did not and do not make everything clear, but rather resist simple clarity, forcing their hearers to come at the whole complicated truth from a position of intellectual and spiritual humility.

BA Feb 19: Are they looking normal? (Photo)
I had a BA Feb 19. I had 300 ccs in my left and 325 in my right. The swelling in my left has gone down considerably, but my right is still very swollen and firm. Its bigger than the left. I think I may have pulled the right a little when getting a pillow. Do they look normal? The bruising under the incision? The blue line coming from my boob is marker. I want to make sure I haven't given myself a hematoma.

BA Feb 19: Are they looking normal? (Photo)
Thank you for your question. Despite good intentions, online consultants will not be able to provide you (in any responsible fashion) with specific enough advise to be truly helpful. Given your concerns, you'll be best off seeking follow-up with your plastic surgeon, earlier that already scheduled if necessary, for in person evaluation.
Breast implant results
You have a nice looking result so far. I believe your upper pole fullness will decrease in the coming months as the swelling subsides and the skin stretches slightly. Good luck.
Breast Augmentation look after surgery
It is not uncommon to have one breast seem larger than the other side from swelling. It appears your post op recovery is normal, but your surgeon can evaluate that. Also on looking at your photos, your body seems turned possibly due to the angle of the camera, or maybe some Scolosis which can also bring out the differences in your 2 breasts. Dr. Costanzo, Thousand Oaks, CA.

BA Feb 19: Are they looking normal?
Again over the internet we can ONLY guess on the post operative course. Which appears OK. But best to have closer follow up with your chosen surgeon..///
Breast Augmentation Post-Operative Appearance
Your photos do not suggest that you have a hematoma, but your surgeon can examine you to be sure. Swelling is very normal at this stage. It is also very normal to have more swelling on one side more than the other. Are you right-handed? Many times I will see the implant remain a little more swollen and sometimes a little higher for a longer period of time due to the tighter, more developed pectoralis muscle on the dominant side. Follow your surgeon's advice and you will do well.
Concern about Breast Appearance Several Days after Augmentation
- Based on the photos that you have provided, it appears that you are healing up just fine.
- It is common to have more swelling on one side compared to the other after breast augmentation.
- Please keep in mind that 6 days after breast augmentation is very early on, and it takes weeks for all of the swelling to resolve completely.
- Definitely meet with your plastic surgeon, and he/she will be able to reassure you.
- Thanks for sharing!
Web reference: http://dr-cooper.com/dr-cooper/procedures/breastaugmentation.asp
Breast augmentation
Your breast augmentation is only a few days old. It looks pretty reasonable at this point. It will take a few months to settle down as well.
Breast Augmentation: Do they look normal?
Your breasts appear to be normal at this stage of the healing process, but a physical examination by your plastic surgeon will be required to rule out a hematoma. Bruising and swelling are normal after surgery and your breasts will each heal at a different rate. Follow up with your plastic surgeon if you have further questions or concerns.
Everything appears ok
For an exam to confirm there is nothing else going on please contact your surgeon. Muscular swelling and breast swelling can be very uncomfortable just after surgery.
6 days post op
All looks normal. Nothing to suggest a hematoma. This type of question is best asked of your own surgeon!.
All the best.
All the best.

Gucci's new beauty offerings (WWD)
UPDATE: It's official ladies- the first pics of Gucci's new beauty range have landed on our desks, and we're beyond excited. We're already coveting the oh-so-chic bronzer brush and that stunning red nail polish- ooh, and not forgetting that totally gorgeous coral lipstick. It's swoon central here on the Grazia beauty desk!
What's more, in a recent interview, Gucci creative director Frida Giannini said while the project officially began four years ago, "the idea emerged much earlier — I've always wanted to do a cosmetics line for Gucci." And we can guarantee that every product in the new range is tried and tested by Frida herself: "As a woman, of course I tried absolutely every product and color we made," adding she was "obsessed" with finding the right palette, a challenge she achieved by scouring the nearly century-old fashion house's archives and mood boards for inspiration, as well as photos of style icons such as Lauren Hutton, Jerry Hall, Jane Birkin and Veruschka.
Frida also said, "Makeup is part of the holistic brand universe for luxury fashion brands and is a natural next step for Gucci." We couldn't have said it better ourselves.
20 May, 2014: Charlotte Casiraghi To Be The New Face Of Gucci Cosmetics
Breaking beauty news reaching Grazia HQ informs us that Monegasque royal Charlotte Casiraghi, who is fifth in line to the throne, has just been named as the face of a yet-to-be-launched Gucci cosmetics line. Casiraghi is a long-time friend of Gucci as its official equestrian ambassador and already appears in Gucci's 'Forever Now' ad campaign.
Although the new cosmetics collection won't be available until September, rumours have it that the range will consist of eye, face, lip, nail and skin products? A royal beauty bonanza, we say!
Charlotte Casiraghi for Gucci Forever Now
Gucci creative director Frida Giannini is clearly thrilled to have Charlotte on board for another foray into the world of Gucci beauty, describing her as a "striking beauty" and saying, "Charlotte was a natural choice as she embodies the modern iconic Gucci woman."
