Autism Speaks continues to ignore the elephant in the room; vaccines contribute to autism. While their positions are not incorrect, genetics and environment do play a role in autism, passing over vaccine involvement could be considered negligent for a company that claims to be "Dedicated to funding research to the causes, prevention, treatment and cure for autism."
Below is an e-mail to Bob Wright, a co-founder of Autism speaks, where Barry expresses his frustrations with Bob who continues to ask his daughter, Katie to not confront the vaccine issue. Katie Wright is not only an advocate against vaccines but is also the mother of a vaccine injured child. According to The New York Times 2007 article "Autism Debate Strains a Family and its Charity" by Jane Gross and Stephanie Strom, Katie, "says her parents have not given enough support to the people who believe, as she does, that the environment – specifically a synthetic mercury preservative in vaccines – is to blame."
I have heard that you've asked Katie to back away from the vaccine issue.
How do you sleep at night? You have a vaccine injured grandson. Doesn't it kill you to think your actions are causing this?
Attached are a couple of examples.
By now, I can literally show you hundreds of reports like this.
Bernie is a pompous ass who thought that thimerosal was removed from vaccines in 2004. You know better and know that some children are vulnerable to vaccines. Peter Bell quit over this issue.
We won't stop. The next step is going after Toys "R" Us and other large donors.
Every time you look at Christian, understand this: This is what you and Suzanne are causing over and over again.

Although best known as the Southern's M7 class these sturdy 0-4-4 tank engines were built
by the London & South Western Railway before the formation of the Southern in
1922. Hornby have replicated the original L&SWR pale green livery on this
NRM collection model of number 245.
The Hornby M7 is a highly detailed models featuring many prototype specific parts to
represent main frame and boiler fitting variations. Full cab interior detailing is
fitted, the spacious cab being completely clear of the motor. Adequate weight and good
balance has still been achieved, coupled with power from a 5-pole skew wound motor the
chassis provides excellent smooth running? and enough traction for a reaslitic
train to be pulled.

Amsterdam, Nethe...
I would be lying if I would say that this is my first dress made by myself. It's probably third, but after very long non-sewing period. So it feels for me like the first one. And for now, definitely most favorite of all my dresses.
Lightweight dress fabric (140 cm width, 250 cm length), invisible zip 60 cm long and 8 buttons

Your project was one of the top viewed in 2013! Check it out here: http://www.burdastyle.com/blog/overview-top-patterns-and-projects-from-2013. Awesome dress, the print is great too :)
Jun 11, 2013, 09.22 PMby Rosemarysclothes
ok i was trying to decide what to do with my fabric, it was a choice between this and another, after seeing your dress i have definitely made up my mind.
I love your dress
Jun 12, 2013, 09.20 AMby dvinare
Good luck with this dress! :)

Mar 10, 2013, 06.05 PMby freaky-philomeen
aha, thanks a lot for your answer!
I might try this dress for autumn if I don't get around to it now. At the moment I cannot decide which pattern, which fabric, which style … so maybe it's better to leave the scissors untouched ;)) best wishes

Mar 7, 2013, 09.12 PMby dvinare
thanks! ;) um, to be honest I don't know exactly how this fabric is called, but it's something very close to light-weight crepe.
Mar 6, 2013, 08.00 PMby freaky-philomeen
super, dvinare! looks like the perfect dress indeed.
May I ask how tall you are? I've got the pattern and I'd love to make it too but at 160 cm I always seem to get 'swept up' in wide dresses.
Mar 7, 2013, 12.26 PMby dvinare
thank you!
I am also not so tall, only 8 cm taller than you, so I guess the dress would look similar on you ;) I also made some adjustments, around the waist it was too wide for me.

Just launched, Barco's new 18.5" JAO Smart Terminal is the first of a new generation: thinner, lighter, more ergonomic and more powerful than the existing Point-of-Care terminals. Visitors to the Barco booth loved the new design of the terminals and were interested in the countless new features to benefit patients and healthcare workers alike. They learned how the new terminals are sure to improve clinical workflow and make for happier and healthier patients.
In addition to highlighting the bedside terminals, Barco's sales team manning the booth also presented the Nexxis image management solution, which was launched at Medica 2011 and is quickly finding its way into operating theaters around the world. The stand also featured several surgical displays and the Coronis Fusion diagnostic display systems.

Many of our readers may not know that Lightspeed has been very active in cleantech over the past year and a half. We have evaluated over 400 cleantech startups to date and have made investments in solar (Stion), biofuels (LS9), clean coal (Coaltek), LED lighting efficiency (Exclara), and batteries (Mobius). My partner Peter Nieh and I (Andrew Chung) lead up the cleantech effort here at Lightspeed, and here are some of our solar prognostications for 2008:
1. Solar will sustain its torrid growth, as costs continue to fall. The solar market has grown at ~40% per annum in recent years, and there are many reasons to think that it will sustain, if not exceed, that clip in 2008. Solar panel prices have followed a predictable experience curve since the 1970's, with prices dropping by 20% with each doubling of manufacturing capacity. As the silicon-dominated industry moves to thinner and higher-efficiency wafers, increases manufacturing scale, improves wafer and cell processing technologies, sees polysilicon prices return to rational levels, and migrates production to lower-cost countries –- costs will continue to drive towards parity with grid rates, and solar will become increasingly more attractive. Companies have developed creative PPA (power-purchase agreement) financing models to reduce or eliminate upfront installation costs, which will make solar more accessible for a wider range of corporate and residential customers. The election year should also see more state subsidy support for solar and a renewal of the federal tax credit, which will further bolster growth.
2. Emerging startups that benefit from the polysilicon supply shortage will face increased pressure, as the poly-Si crunch begins to ease. Solar veterans can debate the timing endlessly, but many expect additional poly-Si supply to come online by late 2008. Startups that tout silicon-independent solar solutions, like concentrators and thin film (CIGS, a-Si, CdTe, etc.), will face pressure to come to market more quickly, as their cost/supply advantages erode with greater availability of poly-Si and a retreat from spot-pricing. E.g., none of the CIGS thin-film startups, which have collectively received hundreds of millions in investment in recent years, managed to reach mass commercialization this past year as many had projected. They will continue to be under pressure to reach market before the window of opportunity closes.
3. Entrepreneurs will increasingly look beyond cell and module production. As the technology-heavy areas of cell and module production get crowded, more and more entrepreneurs look to startup opportunities in the downstream balance-of-systems part of the value chain. This area has seen less attention to date, yet makes up ~50% of the total installed cost. Novel packaging techniques, distributed inverter / MPP tracking / power management technologies, systems monitoring solutions, streamlining of the installation process, and creative solar financing models — entrepreneurs increasingly recognize the ripe opportunity in this part of the solar business, and 2008 should see heightened startup activity in this area.
4. China and India will begin to emerge as strong domestic markets for solar. With a 500 MW coal-fired plant going up in China every week, the growth of greenhouse gas emissions has reached dizzying levels. China already "boasts" 16 of the 20 most polluted cities in the world, with hundreds of thousands a year dying prematurely from such pollution. Many experts expect that the government will spend tens of billions of dollars in the next 5-10 years –- a significant portion going to solar -– to reach the mandate of 15% from renewables by 2020. In India, where the energy shortfall has reached 15% and domestic coal reserves will run out in ~50 years, the government is actively pursuing incentive policies and feed-in tariffs to help drive the use of solar and other renewables. 2008 should see further policy refinement in both countries, which will spur increased domestic adoption of solar.
5. More IT entrepreneurs will continue to start or join solar ventures. Cleantech has captured the imagination of many seasoned IT entrepreneurs, and we expect that 2008 will be another high-water mark for crossovers into the space. Solar, in particular, has been attractive to IT veterans due to a high translatability of manufacturing skills from semiconductor production in the upstream part of the value chain; and the applicability of IT-related disciplines like power management, systems management and monitoring, supply chain management, and financing arbitrage in the downstream part of the value chain.

hello everyone, i have a question !

i don't want to eat cheese (i'm already over the daily quota i think... frenchy me !), don't want to cook tofu... But i want proteins !
Here (in France) there's almost no meet substitute (like veggy burger or saussages) that i can have either
any ideas ??!

Annie .. a few things I do:
Flax minute muffin (I came up with a vegan baked version I like a lot. Tastes a lot like gingerbread and I like mine with whipped cream .. decadent me! lol!). I will post the recipe below for you. You can also make versions using butter and eggs instead of the coconut oil and oat fiber .. Do a search on "minute muffin" .. I develeoped this one based on those.
Chocolate pecan coconut bars My version based on a recipe posted here by Smasty. Do some searches on "coconut bark" and you will come up with a lot of threads and posts with recipes! I put cocoa, pecans, whey protein powder, and shredded coconut in mine.
Nuts (high calories but protein dense. Limit to 1 oz / 28g at a time). Since you are such an accomplished chef, you could make all kinds of flavored nuts. If you do search here, you will find recipes!
Cold baked tofu with or without a dipping sauce.
Milkshake Whey protein powder made into a milkshake .. use almond milk, or soy milk, or whatever products you can get in France.
Recipe ....
Pauline's Vegan Flax Muffins - makes 12
Dry Ingredients:
3 cups ground flax
3/4 cup oat fiber
2 t. baking powder
2 t. baking soda
3 T. cinnamon
Wet ingredients
3/4 cup coconut oil
1 t. liquid splenda (or: 48 drops)
2 1/2 cups boiling water
Other items
Pam Spray
12 muffin pan
glass measuring cup
Preheat the oven to 400 degrees. Grease the muffin tin with pam spray (for ease of use!). Set water to boil in your kettle.
Measure out all the dry ingredients into a large bowl. Mix well and put it aside.
Measure the 3/4 cup of coconut oil out into a glass measuring cup. If it is not liquid, place in the microwave in 45 second intervals until liquid. Once this is done, add the liquid splenda to the coconut oil. Pour the liquid into the dry mixture. Before you mix, quickly add the 2 1/2 cups of boiling water to the bowl.
Mix very well! Use the mixture to fill the muffin tin and place in the oven (400 degrees) for 15 minutes. Once cooled, the muffins will slip right out! The muffin texture is more moist than the traditional minute muffin, somewhere between the minute muffin and a brownie!
I hope that helps some!

Thank you so much Pauline ! this is really helpfull ^^
I really want to try your muffins ! I will try to find coconut oil first, never seen any so far but it should exists somewhere ! Do you think I can make a batch and freeze them ? (I don't want to be all alone in front of 12 muffins )
Another question (sorry... :blush is oat fiber the same as oat bran ???
Thank you again for sharing

Annie, oat fiber is different than oat bran. I believe the bran has carbs and the oat fiber does not. It is just something I threw in there for bulk since I was taking out the eggs .. now since you are a good cook and you probably have a better understanding of baking than I do *and* you are doing some higher carb items that I do not do, you could probably come up with something as a substitute .. I bet oat bran would work fine ..
I actually just made a batch of the muffins today, lol! and I always freeze them .. I freeze 9 of them and leave 3 of them in the refrigerator .. I wonder if you could find coconut oil in a shop that sells ethnic tropical foods? I think it is used in Caribbean, South Asian and Indian cuisine (India) .. those might be the kinds of shops to look for it!
It hardens to a white solid at cool temperatures and you must warm it first in the microwave to get it to liquid form. I keep mine in the cupboard, not the refrigerator.

For the past couple days, i've had spinach dip with jicama as the "dipper" (its cold and crisp like the water chestnuts you put in spinach dip).
Any veggies with dip. if you blend up cottage cheese or use Greek yogurt as a base, you can get in some protein.
Celery with peanut butter.
This is a little higher in carbs, but freeze dried veggies make great cruchy snacks. (eg freeze dried green beans or okra or celery... I buy them at one of my local supermarkets from the bulk foods area) The ingredients are veggie, olive oil, salt.
Kale chips are delish!
baked kale chips | smitten kitchen
You can also buy them (expensive) in little single serving snack bags at Whole Foods. They come in plain, as well as with flavors added (sour cream and onion flavor, curry flavor- really unique!)
Try them! They are crispy, crunch, so good! Nothing like eating a vegetable! And you wont have to feel guilty for munching on a big bowl!
Edited: Sorry, just realized you were asking for PROTEIN.
Greek yogurt is very high in protein.
Hard boiled eggs/deviled eggs/egg salad.
I have tried both these recipes that use almond flour. They both have a good dose of protein, between the eggs and almonds.
You can just whiz blanched slivered almonds in a food processor to make your own flour too. It is supposed to be coarse.

Black bean brownies. I have not tried these myself, but they should provide a good dose of protein between the eggs and black beans.
There are other recipes on this site for various cakes and breads using beans if you do a search(I think there is a white bean "corn bread" or something I remember)
Obviously beans are a little higher in carbs, so these wouldnt be recommended if you are doing Atkins Induction or haven't made it to the "beans" rung of the carb ladder.
I also wanted to mention HUMMUS for some protein.
(Its sister Baba Ganoush is also yummy, not so high in protein, but eggplant is a good-for-you veggie!)

Important Notice : Avoiding Fraud
It's rare, but some helpful hints to watch out for with regards to fraud:
- It is important to NEVER wire funds or use/employ other fund transfer mechanisms such as western union: Always use a credit card to protect yourself against fraud. If owners pressure you into providing a deposit or refuse to accept credit cards, there is a high probability that this is a scam.
- If at all suspicious of fraud, ask to see their website, or any other literature they can provide or send to you. Ask them for contact details for guests who have previously stayed on their property insisting on telephone numbers. Be suspicious of emails that originate from free email services (yahoo, hotmail, gmail, etc)
- Research the property thoroughly on the internet to see if there is any history or mention of scams associated with the property.

Curious what the other side of our kitchen looks like? I'll be honest, back when these photos were taken, this side of the kitchen was a total disaster! Boxes and "stuff" everywhere with no organization whatsoever! But when we came across this bamboo baker's rack at Aldi (marked down to $22), we knew we had found the solution to our mess. I put the rack together on Monday evening while Tad was making a table. We're still trying to decide how we're going to use all the new-found space, but for now at least our beautiful toaster oven has a home!
Plenty of room for other kitchen wares. Ideally, we are going to paint all the paneling and wood trim in our kitchen eventually, so I think the bamboo will look much better when contrasted with crisp white walls behind it!
I love how you can see my (slightly distorted) baby bump in the reflection on the toaster oven! Drawers contain picnic silverware and extra sponges at the moment.
And, lastly, a picture of our...*drumroll please* newly organized broom closet!
So, that's what I've been working on lately.

My husband has just bought himself a new toy - a Weber Spirit barbecue - he's even bought some of their accessories. It was pleasing to see him, instead of the usual suspect (me), buying utensils he didn't really need, but I have to say they do lure you into parting with your cash, they are sleek in design and also very practical.
The previous week he 'faffed' about with barbecue and kept asking for opinions and help on how he should go about cooking the food on his new barbie, it really is a learning curve with the Weber, as they recommend cooking with the hood down for some foods.
As you can see from the photograph - the barbecue was delicious!
I knew we would need a very easy and quick dessert to eat after the barbecue because I had to be prepared for the 'faffing' again! Idly flicking through the pages of the September issue of BBC Good Food Magazine I stumbled upon this glorious recipe for roasted plums.
Roasting plums brings out the very best flavour and the wonder of this simple recipe was the vivid purple juices that oozed from the plums to make a delicious sauce. I allowed my plums to cool down for 10 minutes or so and served them simply with double cream poured over. Unfortunately, the photograph doesn't show the wonderful juices that came from the plums, perhaps due to more 'faffing'.
Pershore, Worcestershire celebrate the plum with a Plum Festival at the end of August. I've never managed to go, but perhaps one day we might make the trip. I would love to walk around the stalls overflowing with plums, buying them, and eating them straight from the paper bag - heaven!
You will need:
140g white granulated sugar, ¼ tsp cinnamon, 1 large egg white, 12 ripe purple or red plums
1. Heat the oven to 200°C/180°C fan/gas 6.
2. Mix the sugar and cinnamon in a bowl. Whisk the egg white, then roll the plums first in egg white and then the cinnamon sugar until very well coated in a sugary crust.
3. Space apart in a buttered baking dish then bake for 15 minutes or until the plums are crusty, cooked through and starting to be juicy (I allowed mine to be quite juicy without the plums collapsing). To test poke in a cocktail stick, if it goes in easily, they are ready.
4. Serve with creme fraiche, ice cream or double cream.

More than 1,000 pro-Palestinian activists were grounded at airports across Europe on Sunday after Israel blocked them from participating in a so-called 'flytilla'.
"When we have provocation after provocation of activists coming to our borders and trying to disrupt the normal lives of Israelis, it's not because they want to make a political message which will further the cause to establish a state of Palestine, what it is, is political debauchery."- Gregg Roman, the deputy director of the Gloria Centre
The 'flytilla', organised by the 'Welcome to Palestine 2012' campaign, was staged with the aim of bringing attention to Israel's illegal occupation of the Palestinian territories. But many protesters were prevented from boarding their flights to Tel Aviv after the Israeli government demanded that airlines stop them from flying.A further 40 activists were detained by the Israeli authorities at Tel Aviv's International Airport.
These events took place as Israel was once again in the spotlight for its handling of pro-Palestinian activists after an Israeli soldier, Lieutenant-Colonel Shalom Eisner, was filmed striking Andreas las, a Danish national participating in a pro-Palestinian bike rally in the occupied West Bank, in the face with his gun.
The Israeli army has suspended the senior officer pending the result of an investigation into the incident.
"It has always been an axiom of the Israeli foreign policy to isolate Palestinians, while the bulldozers work, the olive trees are burnt, people are thrown on the streets and their crimes escalate. We wanted to challenge that by saying that the Palestinian people should not suffer these crimes in isolation."
- Mick Napier from the 'Welcome to Palestine 2012' campaign
This is not the first time the Israeli army's response to activists has caused controversy.
In 2003, Rachel Corrie, a member of the International Solidarity Movement (ISM), was killed as she tried to stop the destruction of a Palestinian village.
The Israeli army says she was killed by falling debris but the ISM maintains that she was deliberately run over by a bulldozer.
In 2010, the Israeli navy intercepted the Turkish ship, the Mavi Marmara, as it sailed towards the Gaza Strip carrying aid. That attack left nine pro-Palestinian activists dead.
So, is Israel over-reacting to the so-called 'flytilla' activists? Why is it so nervous about foreign activists? How much of a difference can foreign activists really make on the ground?
Inside Story, with presenter Divya Gopalan, discusses with guests: Gregg Roman, the deputy director of the Gloria Centre: Mustafa Barghouti, secretary-general of the Palestinian National Initiative; and Mick Napier, the UK coordinator of the 'Welcome to Palestine 2012' campaign.
"What we see here is a severe act of violence by Israel against non-violent acts, non-violent Palestinian resistance. They use violence against Palestinians all the time and now they are extending their violence, their racism, and their fascist behavior in certain occasions to internationals."
Mustafa Barghouti, the secretary-general of the Palestinian National Initiative

BOOM! KAPOW! WHAM! Words and action fly off the pages of the comics as students read them for their nightly homework. That's right, comics as homework. With the comics as literature class on campus, students can immerse themselves into the art of comics and embrace their inner geek.
The Comics as Literature class is a special one-term class offered during the fall term where students take an in-depth approach to comics and observe the writing techniques, art and other elements like character development, plot line, continuity of comics like 'Watchmen' and 'Batman: Year One'.
"It's a really interesting class," said student Bryce Pierson. "I got to have fun and read comics for homework, which not many people can say they get to do. It's really cool."
When you think about it, who wouldn't want to spend time reading comics as homework? Sure, you have to take some notes, but come on, it's comic books. It gives you a chance to relax a little and unwind with a good comic or two, which sounds like bliss to the ever busy college student.
The class itself is taught by Clackamas English instructor and local author, Trevor Dodge, who has written a book of his own. This may seem like a strange class for an English instructor to teach, but the way that he teaches it makes comics a more refined writing art and viable as an option for a writing teacher to, well, teach.
"What I hope to accomplish with this class is expose people to different types of literature and broaden their horizons," said Dodge. "It also provides an opportunity for people who want to work in this field to start shaping their career path and get their hands dirty, so to speak."
Indeed, it seems many students who take this class come away either laden with knowledge of comics they didn't have before, or a more open mind about what they define as 'literature.' The class can also have other applications aside from comics or even writing.
"I took the class before, due to my geeky interest in everything comics," said student Zach Sherman. " It's also an interesting class to take for a potential director, as it's almost like looking at a well thought out story board, which is where my director's mind steps in and wonders 'How could I turn this into a movie?' It's a great class to take, even if you aren't into comics."
So it can be said that this class isn't just for the inner geek, but can also be used in more than one application. You could take it from an artist's perspective, a graphic designer, a writer's or just a geek who wants to embrace their 'nerdiness.' Whatever your angle may be, this class is sure to catch your attention in one way or another.

KSD girls hosting Mason-Dixon Tournament
The Kentucky School for the Deaf girls will host the biggest annual event on their schedule, the 36th annual Mason-Dixon Tournament, this week at Thomas Hall.
The tournament, which begins Thursday and continues through Saturday, brings together 11 schools for the deaf from Southern states. Those 11 schools rotate as hosts, meaning this is the first time since 2002 that KSD has hosted the girls MDT.
There will be 17 games over three days, culminating with the championship game at 8 p.m. Saturday. Thanks to consolation rounds, each team is guaranteed at least two games. There are also social events for the players, as well as for their parents, coaches and alumni.
KSD has won the tournament five times, winning annually from 1990-93 and once more in 1995, but the Colonels don't figure to be a contender for the championship this year. At 0-16, they are one of two winless teams in the field and are seeded last in the field. They'll play their first-round game at 8:45 a.m. Thursday against sixth-seeded Tennessee School for the Deaf, then play again either Thursday afternoon (if they win) or Friday morning (if they lose).
Tickets are $7 per session, with passes available for all three days, Friday and Saturday or just Saturday at discounted prices.
At the same time, the KSD boys will be playing in the the boys MDT in Staunton, Va. They are 5-11 and seeded fourth, which gives them a first-round bye. They'll also play TSD, the No. 5 seed, in a quarterfinal at 2:15 p.m. Thursday.
The girls and boys tournament websites offer a wealth of information on each event, from full event schedules, updated brackets and team rosters to directions and ticket details and links to live streaming from the two sites.

Harrisburg Reporter Attacked During Early Morning Run
Kirk Clyatt, WHP meteorologist and reporter, was attacked while out for a late night/early morning run in Harrisburg, PA, over the weekend.
"It's one of those things you really can't believe is happening when it's happening," Clyatt told WHP anchor Chris Papst in an on set interview during the CBS affiliate's 11:00pm news Sunday night. "Even after the fact it's hard to believe. I don't know if I have had so many cuts and bruises or endured anything like happened last night."
Clyatt said he was finishing up a long run after work Sunday morning when he was approached by a group of five young men and one woman who initially passed him then doubled back. Clyatt said the woman then hit him with a very heavy purse he said may have had a brick inside. Read more

Strange Sounds in the sky in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India, December 17 2012
December 17 2012 – Strange Sounds in the sky in Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India.
Zeenewsindia reported that a mysterious deafening sound raised concerns in the population in the area of Jodhpur, Rajasthan, India on Monday, the 17th December 2012. Inhabitants called the police to get informations about it. First thoughts were "sonic booms" trigerred by some military aircraft during exercise. Defence spokesman denied this information and any kind of other explosions related to military. Sonic booms are not permitted in populated areas in India.
Follow us on Facebook and Twitter.

- Q: My iron test result was 8. Now I am taking 975 mg of iron daily as prescribed by the health department nurse. Is there any harm in this? She says I will have to take iron until I stop my menstrual cycles. I have had heavy periods with blood clots for several years. My iron was so low that during my periods I occasionally would black out. I'm just concerned about the dose of iron I am taking. I do feel a lot better since I started taking it.
- A: Regarding your dose, I am assuming that you are taking iron in the form of ferrous sulfate. If you are, then taking 975 mg a day is a typical dose as long as you are not taking all of it at once. Normally, the dosage is 325 mg taken 2-4 times per day, depending on the severity of the iron deficiency. I am guessing that you are taking 325 mg 3 times per day. If so, then you are on a good dose. Just be sure to get your iron levels tested every so often to make sure that you are in a good range. Megan Uehara, PharmD

One Day to Play in Calistoga
At the top of Napa Valley, Calistoga sits right in between Napa and Sonoma counties. It's different. It's wine country, but life in Calistoga doesn't feel like it revolves around grapes and vineyards. It's about water, wine and mud, and not necessarily in that order.
A Summertime Celebration at Solage Calistoga
Miriam Ziskin & Mike Swofford said their vows in Calistoga, California under a beautiful arbor surrounded by family and friends. Pops of purple, blue and yellow added color to an already picturesque outdoor setting.
Calistoga AVA Spotlight: Chateau Montelena and Canard Vineyards
This is the first installment in a series of blogs that will examine the different AVAs of Napa Valley and what makes them special. We'll highlight one famous winery and one hidden gem in each region.
An American Viticulture Area (AVA) is a designated grape growing region that has specific and identifiable characteristics as defined by geography, history, and climate. The variances between AVAs lead to significantly different flavors in grapes and wine and the exact spot where the grapes are grown plays a significant role in what you like and don't. We decided to feature Calistoga first as it's the most recent region to be granted a separate AVA status in Napa Valley (although Coombsville is well on it's way)
Lovely Bones: Jules Kim of Bijules Hits SF
If you have a bone to pick with Jules Kim, the New York-based accessories designer more likely than not will happily oblige. That's because the latest from Kim's Bijules collection, beloved by no-last-name-needed celebrities from Beyonce to Kelis and Lady Gaga to Rihanna, is actually made using the tiny bones of animals collected during the designer's escape-from-the-city adventure earlier this year to a friend's 3,000-acre ranch outside Calistoga, Calif.

The harvests full and flowers gay,
The whole day long

Of gratitude!

Manchester History
Manchester is a lively, bustling city that is defined by its place in history as the hub of Britain's cotton industry during the Industrial Revolution. It is this period that forms the basis of many of its great attractions, exhibitions and museums such as the new People's History Museum.
Though there has been a settlement in Manchester since Roman times, records show a cotton industry taking shape from 1600. Mechanisation helped it boom and the town became the world's largest cotton trading centre. Rapid, unplanned urbanisation followed and the development of other manufacturing industries helped it become one of the world's great industrial cities by the turn of the 19th century. This encouraged infrastructure improvements – canals were developed and extended, enabling access for ocean-going ships and rail links were established with Liverpool, another vital trading hub.
The city's achievements were so great that in 1844 England's former Prime Minister Benjamin Disraeli declared Manchester to be 'as great a human exploit as Athens'. Nine years later, it was granted city status and many of Manchester's great public buildings sprang up in the following 50 years, including the grand town hall.
Fast forward to the 20th century - and Manchester endured mixed fortunes. The cotton trade declined as a result of increased competition from other northern towns, worsened by the onset of WWI. The Great Depressions of the 1930s dealt a serious blow to the city, whilst WWII had devastating consequences after the Germans pummelled Manchester with bombs, wrecking huge parts of its historic centre. Manchester Cathedral was one of the targets and it took 20 years to restore.
Boom was followed by bust during the 1960s and 1970s. But depression did have one silver lining: the Smiths, whose gloomy tunes encapsulated the late 1980s like no other.
Then, in the 1990s Manchester became Madchester, birthplace of bands like the Stone Roses and the Happy Mondays. Economic recovery began, but Manchester suffered a terrible setback when the IRA detonated its devastating bomb that ripped through the heart of the city centre in 1996. It was the largest bomb to explode on British soil, injuring over 200 people and ripping apart buildings. The insurance bill was over £400 million and many businesses were never able to recover.
Following this devastation, a wave of urban regeneration projects started, sowing the seeds for Manchester's contemporary landscape today. The Printworks and The Triangle were developed as shopping and entertainment hubs; old buildings were torn down and replaced with modern, glass and steel edifices, old mills were converted into luxury flats and the 169m-high (554ft) residential Beetham Tower was completed in 2006, the tallest building outside London.
Meanwhile, sport continues to be an intrinsic part of the city's cultural identity. Home to two Premier League Football teams, Manchester United and Manchester City, the city also hosted the 2002 Commonwealth Games which led to the construction of world-class sporting facilities. In 2013, it will host The Ashes and the Rugby League World Cup, followed by the Rugby World Cup in 2015.

Many people believe that understanding auto insurance is difficult. In truth, research and understanding make it much less confusing.
Cut back on how much you drive in a year and you'll cut down on the insurance bill. Most insurance providers will actually decrease the amount of your premium by decreasing the number of miles you drive less.
You can buy additional insurance beyond the state minimum if you so choose. Even though these may cost you a bit more, the peace of mind they will give you will be worth it. If you get in a hit-and-run accident or one where the other party has no insurance, you will be out of luck unless you have uninsured motorist coverage.
Make sure your license clean. If you do have a poor driving record, you should opt for traffic school to keep it off your record.
If you've been thinking about adding aftermarket parts to your car, determine the insurance consequences should your car get damaged or stolen. Insurance usually won't cover the cost of aftermarket parts, and that is probably not much.
Most states require liability insurance when you drive. You are responsible for knowing what kind of the regulations regarding minimum insurance policies you are required to have.You will break the law if you have no insurance and get into an accident.
Reconsider purchasing costly add-ons for your car. You do not necessarily have to have seats that are heated or a booming radio. If you do and your car is destroyed, your policy may not cover it.
What kind of vehicle you buy and drive determines a lot about the cost of your monthly insurance premiums. If you want to save as many dollars as you can, drive something modest, modest vehicle.
There are many options which can protect you beyond the legal minimums. Even though these may cost you a bit more, they are usually worth the additional expense. Uninsured motorist protection is a means to protect yourself that are caused by an uninsured driver.
Auto Insurance
Car insurance rates depend on geography, so if you are moving, it might be time to reevaluate your coverage. The insurance companies look at the theft rate, and will raise the policy if you live in an area where that is high. If you live in a city, you will also have to pay a little more for your car insurance compared to living in a suburb or rural area.
Make sure you think about the specific components your auto insurance.While auto insurance policies offer a lot of different coverage types, not all of them will make sense. However, if you are not a great driver or have gotten in a number of small crashes or fender benders, obtaining collision coverage could give you peace of mind.
When purchasing car insurance, remember that only the person named on the policy will be insured unless otherwise specified.Sometimes, other drivers, but if this friend wrecks, will not be covered if they crash your car. You would have to get an addition to your car.
Do not pay the monthly payments. Your insurance company could be adding an additional three to five dollars to your monthly bill. This amount can add up quickly. It can also a hassle on top of all your other monthly bills. The fewer payments you make, the better.
Ask your auto insurance agent for a comprehensive list of the money-saving opportunities their company provides. Look over potential discounts, and see which ones you qualify for, as well as those that you can qualify for if you make changes, such as driving less or taking a driving course.
Property damage liability is a very important to buy with any auto insurance policy. This covers any damage you may have incurred during an auto accident. There are only 3 states left in America that do not have this as a compulsory item.
Sports Cars
Trade in your sports car for a more insurance friendly.Sports cars cost you a lot more to insure than many others. Sports cars are a hot target for thieves, which further raises the cost of insurance.
Your auto insurance rates can skyrocket if your driving record contains any tickets or points. Thankfully, once they are expired and taken off your record, your car insurance costs will decrease. Make sure you get a new quote after your old infractions expire to take advantage of your lower rates.
These suggestions can be used by anyone. Take these ideas and use them to get through just about any type of insurance purchase. Your goal is to get the type of coverage that you are comfortable with that comes at the most affordable price, and this article should help guide you in that direction.

Frankie's 'Two Tribes' 30 years old today
Frankie Goes To Hollywood's 'Two Tribes' – one of the greatest pop singles of the 80′s and certainly one of the greatest 12″ mixes of all time – was released 30 years ago today. June 4th saw a 7″ and 12″ finally burst the bubble of expectation that 'Relax' had inflated after its 5 week run at the no.1 spot despite a BBC ban.
Six days later on June 10th 'Two Tribes' was also sitting at no.1 and would remain bedded in for another nine weeks with 'Relax' returning to the no.2 spot for a couple of those too. The 7″ and 12″ would be joined by three further 12″s, all sporting remixes of the title track or its B side, a cover of Edwin Starr's 'War', as well as 7″ and 12″ picture discs and a cassette compiling excerpts from all.
Add to that the phenomenon of the 'Frankie Say' T-shirts that swept the nation that summer and you had a roller coaster of pop product that no one could have predicted. Over on my ArtofZTT blog I've been adding sleeves, posters, adverts and picture discs daily to celebrate along with various quotes and info about the releases.
The 'Inside The Pleasuredome' box set I helped design is looking good at 83% funded over on Pledge Music and I'm waiting on the go ahead to post more photos from it. Over on his Failed Muso blog Rob Puricelli has written a great piece about the anniversary of 'Two Tribes' and how it impacted on him as a teen in the 80′s, so much of it rings true to my experience too but he puts it so much better.
