I'm almost done shipping the Chef Brian shirts. Some people have already received them. If you haven't gotten yours yet, it's because it hasn't been shipped yet. After those are all done, I can start shipping all of the new
book orders that have been coming in. This is the last time the book will be available this year, and these are the last copies of the first print run. Once these are gone, the book will be unavailable until early next year most likely.
Apparently we won the Best Overall Comic award over at The Webcomic List. I have no idea how the results were reached, and I never put any stock in these online voting/award things, but it's still pretty neat I guess. And The Webcomic List is a good site.
Shirts will be available again soon, and in time for Christmas. Here's a peek at one of the new designs:
I hope everyone had a fun and safe Halloween.

I just think that this lipgloss is way overrated. I bought several of colors, Summer Plum, Blizzard, Equinoxe and Sideral. I found none of the colors flattering. Color payoff is poor and texture slightly sticky. I just think Revlon Super Lustrous lipglosses look way more flattering and feel better on the lips. I swapped away all the Chanel glosses and kept the Revlon glosses.

I don't get why people buy this stuff. The colors look really bad on me (I have fair skin), and they come off in about 10 minutes. They're not thick enough, and they aren't moisturizing. The shimmery ones way overdo the shimmer in my opinion, and they're really expensive as far as lip gloss goes. Chanel made a limited edition gloss one time that was pink and sheer (no sparkle), it looked amazing and stayed on. Why they don't do that with all of their glosses I will never understand.
2 out of 2 people found this review helpful. Did you? Yes No
only bought it cause i was attracted to it. but it is a good gloss but it isnt worth the price.
I'm not really a fan of Chanel glossimers... I've tried Imaginaire (a purple color with shimmer) along with Constellation (a nude sheer shimmer color) and another sheer shimmer color that I forgot the name of and didn't really find anything special about them. I think they are way over priced ($25-26 for one). I must agree though that they have decent texture and are not sticky, but they are also not very pigmented. They aren't scented, which can be a plus, but I sometimes like having a pleasant smell to my lipglosses.
Compared to Clinique lipglosses, both are unscented and have somewhat similar texture. I think Clinique's lipglosses are a little thicker though (I'm referring to their glosswear and full potential lips glosses.)
Compared to Lancome's Juicy Tubes, Chanel glossimers are much less sticky and have no smell at all while Juicy Tubes tend to smell like anything foody (I've smelt caramel and fruit) to somewhat perfumey. I think some Juicy Tubes are more pigmented though (for example Exquisite.) However, glossimers with shimmer/glitter feel less 'gritty' compared to some Juicy Tubes with shimmer. (You hardly feel the glitter at all if any.)
Compared to MAC lipglasses, I find that lipglasses are much more pigmented than glossimers. Also, lipglasses tend to have a slight vanilla smell to them.
Price comparison:
Chanel Glossimer - $25 (Macy's) or $26 (Nordstrom)
Lancome Juicy Tube - $18 (Lancome.com)
Clinique Full Potential Lips - $17.50
Clinique Glosswear - $14
Size comparison:
Chanel Glossimer - 0.19 OZ
Lancome Juicy Tube - 0.5 OZ
Clinique Full Potential Lips - 0.16 OZ
***Forgot to mention, I took off one lippie for price, one for not much pigmentation and another for the size...which sort of corresponds to the price.

Summer Plum - Fabulously smooth, not sticky, wonderfully glossy as you would expect from a name like Chanel. Beautiful sheer plum color. Not too dark, but adds a touch of pigment to lips that are on the paler side. Also the perfect amount of shimmer. HG for sure.

Oh I just love this lipgloss, the colour is the perfect light milky pink. It stays on forever and keeps my lips moist and fantastic.
The only downside is that it is rather pricy.
I don't know exactly which colour i bought but it was a light, sparkly pink and i cant bear to part with it. this lip gloss is a dream come true! stays on for long, and the colour is absolutely fantastic. i would buy again & in various colours :)
I just bought my second Glossimier the other day and I just love them, but they are really expensive like 24 USD, but worth every penny. I just love the splurge and I feel sexy when wearing this sheer sparkly glosses. The first one I bought was Crybaby and it was LE and I was so sad when it dried up, but now I bought one that is peachy-pink colored called Sesame and it is gorgeous and would suit every skin tone. It looks so pretty on the lips especially in time for spring. It feels very smooth and lasts longer than some other glosses I have tried. Give it a shot and you won't be sorry, but try on several colors at the makeup counter.
I only have one color and it was a LE...this is my problem with the Glossimer and why I am scared to ever purchase another one....it bleeds on me...no matter how little I apply, no matter what lipliner I use, with or without lipstick..it bleeds...am I the only one this happens to with Chanel Glossimers or did I get a dud? Mail me please, I am super curious.
I bought 'Twinkle' and it is a great peachy pink with gold shimmer for my fair complexion and red hair. It gives my lips just the right amount of moisture and lasts for hours without the need for re-application. I am now on the quest to find the perfect non-shimmer glossimer, more cream than shimmer, because Twinkle is a bit too sparkly for daily use. But overall it is the BEST lip gloss I have ever used in my life and believe me, I've tried them all!
EDIT: Found the non-sparkly gloss I was looking for - CHANEL's Aqualumiere in Freeze. Absolutely beautiful!

Just a quick note:
The new Darryl is still on its way. I had gotten this very cool contract gig for a couple of months, and had to push back the relaunch of this site.
Some good news, though.
Remember all the fun articles you liked reading here? They will live on!
I will be moving some of the better posts to kencrossland.com/blog. I will also be making a return to writing about pop-culture. I'm consolidating my interests onto a master website, kencrossland.com. It will feature my design portfolio, comedy blog, and the pop culture blog.
I'll post again as the relaunch of Darryl gets closer!

So... after looking and looking... and then some more looking at MSDN Subscriber Downloads this weekend I finally saw that Office 2007 was released. Not all of the programs are available yet but the main applications are.
Beware though... if you were using prerelease versions of Office 2007 be sure to uninstall all of the components from them before you attempt to install the RTM version. So far so good though. I'm really impressed with the release.

ath·ero·scle·ro·sisnoun \ˌa-thə-ˌrō-sklə-ˈrō-səs\
Definition of ATHEROSCLEROSIS
Origin of ATHEROSCLEROSIS
ath·ero·scle·ro·sisnoun \ˌath-ə-rō-sklə-ˈrō-səs\ (Medical Dictionary)
Medical Definition of ATHEROSCLEROSIS
atherosclerosisnoun (Concise Encyclopedia)
Chronic disease characterized by abnormal thickening of the walls of the arteries due to fatty deposits (atheromas) of cholesterol on the arterial inner walls (seeartery). These thicken, forming plaques that narrow the vessel channel (lumen) and impede blood flow. Scarring and calcification make the walls less elastic, raising blood pressure. Eventually plaques may completely block a lumen, or a blood clot (thrombus) may obstruct a narrowed channel. Atherosclerosis of one or more coronary arteries (also called coronary heart disease) can decrease the heart muscle's blood supply, causing angina pectoris. Complete blockage causes heart attack. In the brain, atherosclerosis may result in stroke. Treatments include drugs that reduce the level of cholesterol and fat in the blood, anticoagulants and other drugs that prevent the formation of blood clots, coronary bypass, and balloon angioplasty.

Coming back home to sunny Tel Aviv and getting back to life after this amazing opportunity and the wonderful trip I had in Australia has not been easy at all.
It's really difficult trying to create without a defined mission like I had these past six months. It's also very difficult getting used to the Israeli iced coffee after having the Aussie version with vanilla ice cream!
But like it or not, life goes on and you can't live without coffee and the projects are piling on so I guess my vacation is over.
At the moment I'm setting up my studio at my new rooftop flat in south Tel Aviv. Thanks to the Sidney Myer Fund Australian Ceramic Award, I got a shiny kiln and a brand new compressor so my studio is starting to shape up and feel like the real thing.
At the moment I'm starting to work on a new exhibition that is scheduled in a couple of months and I'm planning some new projects as well. Some porcelain spoons, lighting fixtures and dishes for a new restaurant are in early design stages, waiting to happen.
Keep an eye on my website to see how I go with them and other projects and thanks.

Kevin Costner's Hatfield: Meet the Man Behind the Feud
Originally posted 05/30/2012 05:25PM
Fourteen million cable TV watchers can't be wrong. As the dust settles on the History Channel dramatization of the great American feud – the network's ratings record-setter Hatfields & McCoys airs its third and final installment Wednesday night – perhaps it's time to step back and look at the real-life patriarchs being portrayed by Kevin Costner and Bill Paxton.
The series tells the tale of West Virginia's Devil Anse Hatfield (Costner) and Kentucky's Randall McCoy (Paxton), close friends until the end of the Civil War. Once home, simmering tensions and resentments soon explode into an all-out rivalry that encompasses years of land disputes, kidnappings, even murder.
While artistic liberties were admittedly taken by the makers of the TV drama, several facts remain, according to a Blue Ridge Country magazine account. Devil Anse, whose full name was Capt. William Anderson Hatfield, was "tall, gray-eyed and bearded" and looked remarkably like Stonewall Jackson.
Hatfields & McCoys: Whose Side Are You On?
Originally posted 05/30/2012 11:00AM
Hatfields & McCoys, the History Channel's epic miniseries starring Kevin Costner and Bill Paxton as the heads of the famous feuding families in the post-Civil War South, comes to an end Wednesday after the trilogy's first installment Monday registered nearly 14 million viewers – a ratings record for cable.
Costner and Paxton play close friends Devil Anse Hatfield and Randall McCoy, whose personal conflict escalated into a decades-long rivalry between their families in Kentucky and West Virginia, and nearly led to war between the two states in the post-war years.
"Costner comes as close to a hero as this piece gets," opined the Los Angeles Times TV critic. "It is a truly brilliant performance, worthy of an Emmy for the pipe-smoking alone."
Meanwhile, The Washington Post said, "Paxton takes full advantage of his juicier role as Randall McCoy, a war camp survivor with a taste for vengeance and hellfire religion."

I dont know how i will forget her if i keep writing entries about her. I will be reminded of her again next week. Guys never, i mean never, dear to agree on working in the same space with a beautiful, intelligent, sexy, powerful woman. U WILL fall for her and if she already is with another guy, way more powerful than you and is preparing babies with him, then u get the picture. I need to start a new life. I need to see things differently from another perspective and possibly get far away from that woman.

The alligator market fluctuates every year, and so do the fortunes of the hunters who rely on selling wild alligators to make their living. The market hit a high $40/f ft. rate for gators in the late 80's and dipped to an unsustainable $13/ ft. for the same size gator in 2010, but things have been getting slowly better. Read on to see how the market was for alligators this year.
Current Category: Willie Edwards
If you're a big fan of The History Channel's blockbuster reality series Swamp People then you've probably heard the alligator hunters referencing a "quarter-sized kill spot" on the top of a gator's head, which is where you have to shoot it to guarantee a quick kill. And, if you're like me, then you've probably wondered where that "kill spot" is. (Who knows, we just might bump into a gator on our way to work next week, right?) Keep reading for illustrations that should help clarify so you can

Father and son, Junior and Willie Edwards start this year's alligator season hunting together, but only a few episodes into the season, we see Willie is striking out on his own a bit. Do you reckon that could have anything to do with Junior accidentally shooting him? Nah. Keep reading to find out more about this Lousiana father/son duo that includes the only cast member on Swamp People that makes a living year-round reeling things in from the water.

Thread: service LTPWS

service LTPWS
We just bought corvette C4 and warning light ˝service LTPWS˝is on.
What is the meaning of this warning light?
Is it dangerous?
If somebody knows what it is please tell me!

The following is from my '96 owners manual. The SERVICE LPTWS (Low Pressure Tire Wqrning System) comes on whenever a LPTWS part is not working properly. It may also come on when you are going less than 25 MPh or in Stop and Go traffic. The light will go out when it gets a signal from each sensor.
Two situations that will cause the light to come on and stay on. Both are normal and do not indicate that anything is wrong with the car.
1. You turn the ignition on three times in a row within half an hour without moving the car. The light will then come on every time you turn the ignition on until you move your Corvette.
2. You run your Corvette three times within half an hour while all four sensors are missing. (All sensors would be missing if you put different wheels on your car without transferring the sensors.)
If the light comes on and stays on, even when the car is driven, there could be a problem with the LPTWS. The dealer can clear that light permanently.
Hope this helps.

Thanks for your reply.
In our case the light goes on after 5-10 min. of driving, and stays on until engine stops.
Maybe sistem is losing contact with one of the sensors?
The tire pressure sensors send messages to the Driver Information Center (DIC); they are piezoelectric, meaning that the rotating wheel supplies the power (no batteries as is the case for C5 and C6 models). The TPS system sends one of two messages, one is low tire pressure/flat tire and the second is LTPWS that means that one or more of your TPS is not functioning. The LTPWS light comes on after several minutes of driving once you exceed 25 mph. It will stay on until the engine is turned off. There are 4 tire sensors, each specific for each wheel, i.e. LF, RF, RR, LR. GM changed the TPS during C4 production. The 1989-92 sensors will not work in your 1994. You will need the 1993-96 sensors. Now the bad news. GM no longer makes the TPS and you may have to find used ones. There are no after market TPS for the C4 system. I know that GM no longer has the LF TPS, but I am not sure if GM has any in stock for the RR, LR, and RF. I was able to purchase a RR from Chevy for my 94 in 2006, but had to buy a LF from Taber Used Vette Parts last year. Cost is prohibitive for a new TPS, about $350+ for each TPS. Suggest you check with Superior Chev in Kansas for best GM price if new ones are available (see LT4mans thread on the dealer to get best price). Used TPS run from $100 to $200 each.
You can either run the codes (search the CAC for "how to read codes" on a C4) and the code will tell you which TPS is not functioning, or have your Chevy dealer do it. If GM does not have one in stock, you will have to purchase a used one. Several CACers have them for sale. You need the TPS that is in a beige housing, not the black housing). The TPS is attached to the inside of the wheel with a counter-weighted metal band that wraps around the wheel. Make sure you get the band with any used TPS you purchase.
It is my understanding that there is no way to turn the LPTWS light off in the DIC. You can remove the fuse for the cruise control (it is also for the TPS), but you will be without the cruise control, or you can remove the bulb from the DIC (not easy to do, but can be done). I suggest that you find and install a TPS and keep the system intact. When you read the code, it will give you a number that is referenced to the TPS in the factory service manual (if you own a vette and work on it, you will need the red covered FSM). I recently listed the codes that correspond to each TPS in response to a thread on the subject. If you have the code, post it in this thread or (PM me) and I or others on the site can tell you which TPS is sending the LTPWS message to the DIC. We can also tell you the GM part number for the faulty TPS. In addition, each TPS has a different color label. Blue, yellow, green and orange.
Hope this helps and that you can get the situation resolved. Welcome to the CAC; the members here try to help with any problem.
- 11-23-08, 04:21 PM #5ReDevil2Guest
Many thanks on detailed reply.
Will check all 4 TPS.(Hope no one is lost).
Let us know what you find out.

Mine does the same thing. Sometimes it goes for days without coming on but that's rare. Lately, my "Low Tire Pressure" light has been coming on sometimes, too. I've noticed both of these lights come on when I'm going slow and run over bumps in the road. I'm assuming one or more of the sensors is loose and/or damaged. Anywho, I really don't care. It's a little aggravating but I've never had a car with LTPWS before so, IMO, it's an unnecessary POS. I'm perfectly capable of checking my own tire pressure without some dumb computer telling me when I need air. Next time I have the tires off the rims I might just see about disabling the whole thing.
As for checking air pressure, with the TPS system, you have to have the correct pressure range in the tires before starting the car, otherwise the LTP/FT signal will illuminate. One has to turn off the engine, inflate or fix the tire, before restarting. The LTP/FT light will not go off if you inflate with the engine running.

See my initial post. The dealer can disable the system.
Florida Guy
Thanks for redirecting me to your initial post; I re-read it and you say that the dealer can permanently disable the light. Is it a computer setting? This is the first time I have read that the dealer can disable the light. I sure would like to know how they do it. Do you have any information on this?

To those who questioned my posts about the LPTWS, I do not have the system installed on my 96 so I have absolutely no experience with the system. The information I posted is practically verbatim from my Owners Manual so I ass/u/me that it is correct. I have no other info than what I posted.

After getting 2 out of 4 broken by C4-inexperienced tire installers I just removed them all and sold the darned things. I have never missed them. Tires balance out better too. Of course I had to remove the LTPWS lamp in the dash to eliminate the "annoyance factor" but other than that...good riddance.

- 2 89s a coupe and roadster both 6speeds
I have the tire sensors on both my 89s
on my coupe the system has never worked and the light never comes on the build sheet says the coupe has it and a few years back I put new tires on the car and the wheels have sensors on them (my guess it has been disabled)
Our 89 vert also has the system the light only comes on briefly when I start the car
A few summers back I swapped wheels and tires between the two vettes as the tires were better in the coupe than the vert and we were going to driving thousands of miles and I did not want any tire issues on the trip
and with the tire swap the light would come on after stating and driving the car a few miles and stay on until the car was shut off again
When we returned home from the trip I swapped the tires and wheels back again to the vettes the tires belonged on and then the tire warning light only came on again just at startup
I just last summer bought 4 new tires for the vert and it also has the tire sensors (the reason the light came on and stayed with the coupes tires on the sensors have different code numbers on them)
so not just any sensors work on any car!
Since Florida Guy was kind enough to reply that his information was from the manual, I still have not read anything that has been posted that a dealer can disable the tire pressure monitoring system. That is, no one has had the experience of having the dealer disable the system and posted it. I had spoken to a knowledgeable dealer service manager and the mechanic who installed the left front TPS on my 94, and they both told me that they could not disable the system. Doesn't mean that it can't be done, it just meant that the particular dealer couldn't do it. This may be a question that can only be answered by Gordon Killebrew.

There is broad support in the state Senate for a plan to let landowners shoot threatening wolves on sight.
Supporters say Senate Bill 200 would direct the Department of Fish, Wildlife and Parks to adopt new regulations for such wolves.
The measure says the landowners should be allowed to shoot wolves that pose a "threat to human safety, livestock or dogs."
It was endorsed Tuesday in a 43-6 initial vote. After a final vote scheduled for Wednesday it goes to the House, before the governor would consider it.
Supporters say that the measure will not threaten the state's ability to manage wolves without federal intervention.
Opponents argued there are already enough protections for landowners, pointing out wildlife agents already have an orderly system of killing troublesome wolves.

RELEASED: Nov. 19, 2009
Dr. Mary Hoffman
EAU CLAIRE — Dr. Mary Hoffman, chair of the department of communication and journalism at the University of Wisconsin-Eau Claire, has co-authored an unprecedented text that guides students though the analysis and critique of organizational rhetoric.
Hoffman and her co-author Debra Ford, assistant dean of student affairs at the University of Kansas School of Nursing, studied organizational rhetoric in graduate school.
"[We] became very interested in how theories about how organizations work and theories about how public messages work fit together," Hoffman said. "When we finished school, we both wanted to teach a class on the topic and there were no textbooks on it. There were a few scholarly books and lots of journal articles, but no one had translated and integrated the ideas for students. We believe this is the first text of this type for undergraduate and master's level audiences."
The book, titled "Organizational Rhetoric," is aimed at students in courses that teach about organizations and their messages, Hoffman said, noting that it could be used in courses in organizational communication and public relations.
"The book is pitched at junior and senior students as well as graduate students," Hoffman said. "We also hope that the book will get some attention from scholars in organizational rhetoric who would like a source that integrates concepts and offers a great bibliography on the topic."
Though the title may seem intimidating, the concept of organizational rhetoric is really quite simple, according to Hoffman.
"To study organizational rhetoric is to study how organizations create messages for audiences inside and outside the organization," Hoffman said.
Some examples in the text include an advertisement from an airline apologizing for flight delays, a newsletter promoting the launch of a new records system to employees of a hospital, and a press release from a university announcing their intention to build an outdoor forensic science research facility over the protests of some neighbors.
"We hope the students who use the book learn to think critically about the many messages they see, hear and read every day," Hoffman said.
Hoffman received a doctorate in communication studies from the University of Kansas in 2000. She was a member of the faculty and director of graduate studies in the department of communication studies at Texas State University-San Marcos from 2000-2008, before joining the UW-Eau Claire faculty.
For more information about the book, contact Hoffman at firstname.lastname@example.com or 715-836-4431.

Let us file your next patent, trademark or copyright.Click Here!
A very satisfying relationshipJoel handled a combined intellectual property and employment/labor case for me. I had moved the case to his firm from another firm where I felt I was not making satisfactory progress. Extremely quick study. He was able to grasp the complex interrelationships between the two cases quicker than I had believed possible in order to move the cases forward in a very timely manner. We worked together for a year and a half on the two cases. I believe he achieved the best possible outcome for me in the circumstances. I would certainly retain him again and I can honestly recommend him and the other members of his firm without reservation.
Successful Licensing ResolutionWe had the occasion recently to use the services of Joel Rothman. It involved a licensing problem, whereby a large company used an image by one of our artists on their products, without gaining the proper licensing approval. Mr. Rothman was successful in obtaining an equitable settlement for us. he did so in a timely manner and without going to court. We found Mr. Rothman to be consistent in keeping us informed of his progress, and extremely knowledgeable of this area of the law. He was able to bring our complaint to a speedy resolution, thus minimizing the loss of productive time and cost to us. We are appreciative of Mr. Rothman's professionalism in representing our interests. We highly recommend him for anyone with a licensing issue.
Rare to find- attorney with so much knowledge on the intricacies of the public domain and your rightsRecommending Joel is the easiest thing I could do- because he was only helpful, well informed and extremely knowledgeable on intellectual property law. A process and a situation that could be so difficult and frustrating, he transformed into a tolerable ordeal. It seemed as though he was always three steps ahead of the other side, defending and fighting for my rights. He was very well versed in all of the copyright laws and the intricacies of the scams that people can engage in on the internet; and was able to explain them to me and my team so that we could be well informed on our rights. He was able to find the needle in the haystack when my case was dependent on it, and he did everything in his power to ensure that justice was served and my property would remain protected. I would not hesitate a second to send anyone who needs a strong, intelligent and dedicated attorney to Joel. And I will not hesitate to ever seek his counsel again if I may need it. Not only have I found a wonderful attorney resource, I now have a friend that always has my back.
Recommendation for Atty. Joel Benjamin RothmanWe recommend Atty. Joel Rothman based on our experience with him as our lawyer serving a group of investors against an unlawful practice by a real estate company. Throughout the case which lasted for approximately 5 years, Atty. Rothman displayed openness, truthfulness, and sincerity which gained our trust for his handling our case. With his knowledgeable guidance, the case against this company was mediated and eventually settled to our satisfaction. We are thankful and grateful to Atty. Rothman for his successful legal help to our group.
Great Legal Job Done By Joel RothmanJoel Rothman did a great job in our class action lawsuit regarding the Vista cay condominium case. He was very knowledgeable about this type of law and specifically our case. He also did a great job keeping everyone informed of the state of the case with weekly conference calls involving all the plaintiffs in the case. I also liked the fact that Joel was very optomistic about the case. I felt confident that we were going to win some compensation from Pulte Homes.
Securities/investment fraud case finally settled to our satisfactionJoel worked on our case for 5 years in a securities/investment fraud case against a real estate developer. It was a complicated case that was drawn out through the court system for about 5 years and at one point about two years into the lawsuit I had just about given up any hope of any type of recovery but Joel kept at it and he was finally able to resolve the case to our satisfaction.
Highly RecommendedWorking with Mr. Rothman was an excellent and professional experience. He and his team were very knowledgeable and effective approaching my case. I totally recommend Joel Rothman's legal practice!
One Outstanding LawyerMy experience with Attorney Joel Rothman was extremely positive. He truly cares about his clients. I would wholeheartedly recommended to anyone requiring legal assistance.
Peace of mind after 5 years of legal dispute and financial hardshipJoel and his team are extremely knowledgeable and professional. My case dealt with multiple parties across multiple states and dealt with legal issues at both the state and federal level. As a result of so many variables, having an attorney like Joel to represent my family was crucial as we had no idea what to do. We followed the guidance of Joel's team and after 5 years of enduring the legal process, we were able to put an end to an issue that brought my family to financial ruin. Thank you Joel for your hard work, dedication and for helping us move on with our lives. If I ever find myself in such a legal situation again – I'll contact you with no hesitation.
Consider yourself lucky if he is your Counsel!Joel, has changed my opinion about legal professionals in a very positive way. He reached out to help over 20 people in a complex litigation case. He has worked very hard for us for over five years on a federal case which was successfully appealed and ended with a fruitful settlement. I have enough legal research background to understand what resources he had to pour in this case. The claims, selection of expert witnesses, conducting discovery, mediation all were well thought out, planned and organized with precision which reminded to a well designed science project. Most attorneys would have given up our case and would not taken it to appeal with the financial resources we had. He did not, in spite of the difficulties to deal with some of us. He is not only an amazing attorney, but also a human with integrity rare to find. Thank you Joel!
What is Intellectual Property?
"Intellectual Property" is the body of law that protects the fruits of human intelligence: our inventions, our creative works, and the logos and brand names that we adopt for the goods and services we sell. There are three major types of intellectual property protection – patents, trademarks and copyrights. Generally speaking, patent protection is available for inventions that are useful, such as a novel product, a new method of doing business, or a new process for making or using something, and may also be available to protect a new and original ornamental design for an article of manufacture; copyright law protects original works of authorship such as books, music, artwork, photographs, web pages and software; and trademark law protects the brand names used for goods or services, logos, as well as distinctive product and packaging designs. Trademark law is part of the law of unfair competition, which also addresses trade secret protection, unfair competition and deceptive and unfair trade practices.
Sometimes an invention or work is eligible for more than one type of protection. Take, for example, a lamp with an elaborately sculpted base that incorporates a novel on-off switch. The creator of this lamp might be able to claim copyright protection in the lamp's shape as a sculpture, apply for a design patent to protect the ornamental features of the lamp, and apply for a utility patent on the on-off switch invention. Over time, if the public came to associate the lamp's design with a particular source of lamps, as we have learned to associate the shape of a Coca-Cola® bottle with cola manufactured by the Coca-Cola Company, then the lamp's shape could be claimed as a trademark. An attorney can help you to determine what types of intellectual property protection are available to you and how best to protect your intellectual property.

22 days of regretting traveling with Top deck unfortunately. Seriously people they were hopeless. I always felt like I was not getting value for money.

This is the longest Topdeck tour in Europe (49 days), so it can be testing at times being on tour for this long, but I give major credit to our tour leader and driver who where nothing but professional and up-beat the entire trip. On a trip this long the staff can make or break the experience, an...

This is our precious little Karli Lyn. She was born a very hot early morning on September 4th of this year. Being our first born child, she brings so much joy and happiness to our family. Her beauty radiates and is recognised by many. These pictures were taken in my yard by a good friend of mine. With Karli being born in the Fall season, we felt it was necessary to capture her in the spirit! I hope you enjoy her photos as much as my family and I have! :)

Sarah Palin Jokes Officially Stale, Now She Goes Off to FNC
In the grand tradition of liars and ethically challenged self-proclaimed patriots (see: hiding character flaws in a flag) of G. Gordan Liddy and Oliver North, Sarah Palin is now going to be on the morally better-than Fox News Channel. Reports say that she will not be having her own show (see: quitter) but will be a regular contributor.
It dawned on us yesterday the thing that is really annoying about Sarah Palin not going away to let us forget about her, is that the quips about her are no longer fun. Since anybody can and does write them, tweet them or retweet them…meh.
Exhibit A:
But look at this from the NY Times piece about the announcement:
"Least Surprising Announcement Ever" got 182 recommendations?! That's giving up. It's being beaten down by a deluge of stupid and ambitious. We've clearly stopped trying.
You heard it here first: the wolf shooter, moose eater is now a shark jumper.

The "EAGLE ROAD CREW": Driving Change in Thatcher School District!
What is a curriculum? A list of chapters in the book to be covered? A list of topics to be studied? Lesson plans?
A strong curriculum is the foundation upon which meaningful learning experiences and excellent teaching is based. A well-developed curriculum "map" serves the students of the district by defining a clear set of skills that should be mastered at each level of instruction.
Curriculum mapping addresses the most important questions for any educational program:
Who is teaching what?
Are we covering all the topics we want to cover?
How are we measuring our effectiveness as instructors?
How do we help students move from grade to grade with the knowledge they need to be successful?
Thatcher Schools launched a curriculum development initiative in the 11-12 school year that began to answer these questions and created a base map from which teachers can begin to collaborate with one another regarding the overall learning experiences for students as they move through our district. This is a teacher-driven initiative, led by lead "mappers" (we refer to them as our "Road Crew") in each of the school buildgins who teach their peers about the mapping document and what it represents. We refined and further organized our maps during the 2012-2013 school year across grades, buildings, and eventually the entire district. Now, in the 2013-2014 year, we have begun to order the curriculum materials that will support our new maps, and we continue this important work to keep our classroom experiences fresh and relevant for our students.
Curriculum mapping benefits all areas of our district. New teachers to the district truly appreciate this guide for their classroom activities. Teachers learn what skills are taught in the grades levels below and above their own, and discussions begin on the sequencing of skills taught in each subject area. Ultimately, the learning experience for students becomes a naturally organized flow of skill development as they move through the grades.
We are excited to continue this important project as we provide the best educational experience we can for our students!

RCSD & teachers to work out changed school days
Rochester, N.Y. - Adding learning time is what the Rochester City School District believes is necessary to help improve the education of students.
For the 2013-2014 school year, about 20 schools have added expanded learning time.
Some schools have seen a shift in the time of their school day.
Any teacher at a school where there is substantial change in starting and ending time who cannot accommodate it to for family reasons the union and the district have agreed to work together to accommodate either a transfer or another accommodations, said Adam Urbanski, President of the Rochester Teachers Association.
School Board President Malik Evans says these changes are to better student learning.
It's very important that we really focus a lot of our attention at the elementary level so we need to make sure students are at reading grade level by [grade] three, so as they go forward we know they're active in their success, said Malik Evans. Absolutely we need to focus a lot of our energy on this grade level and that's what we're doing with this schedule.
If teachers are needed to work beyond their normal schedule it will be voluntary, and they will be compensated for it.
Another possible change to the school day would be a full learning day on Wednesday.
In years past students were dismissed 45 minutes earlier than other days.
Teachers used the time for professional development.
That change still needs to be voted on by the school board and teachers.

Origin in London = Super!
London Design Week was nothing short of dazzling this past week – D A Z Z L I N G! I was able to attend Origin, 100% Design and Decorex but also went over to FOCUS/11 at the Design Centre Chelsea Harbour to check out what they had going on too. I missed Tent, but that's okay because there is always next year for that… I must say though that I was honored to have been invited to speak at 100% Design, Decorex, FOCUS and at Anthropologie, too. It was a very busy week for me but the takeaway was that doing it was not only a great courage builder but I was able to make so many new friends and put names with faces from our big online community – which I view as more valuable than anything else. Additionally, each event had loads of interesting design and decorating products, trends, concepts – you name it, that you can't walk away without finding something to catch your eye or sweep you completely away. For me, out of all of the events, the one that spoke loudest and grabbed my heart was the beautifully curated and presented Origin show at Old Spitalfields Market.
My loot: An Abigail Brown bird
My loot: Abigail Brown butterfly brooches
My loot: A neon pink teacup print and a print on fabric by Rachel Eardley
My loot: Jo Gordon wool scarf with big pom poms and striped mittens. Yes, I do spot a bright pink theme!
I've been wanting to attend for years so to be there for the first time felt like a mini dream come true. I went with my friends Sania and Leslie and we met up with Elisa. Walking around together, each of us making beelines to things that dazzled us, turning over items, holding them up, chatting to the makers… I found it such a "feel good" type of afternoon – the inspired meeting the creators, the makers… I am always interested in what friends are drawn towards. For Leslie it was stripes, wool, hot pink, white ceramics, wool patterned buttons and a hot pink tea cup printed onto a pretty piece of floral cloth. She also loved Abigail Brown's work.
Row 1: (L) Sania Pell, Elisa Rathje, Leslie Shewring (R) Claire Brewster, Row 2: (L) Row Pinto (R) Eileen Gatt.
For Sania it was anything gray, natural and tactile. She also seemed to be interested in shots of mustard though she was quite reserved while browsing, I suspected she was lost in her thoughts since a pro stylist like Sania combs such markets for products to mentally bookmark to buy or call in for future work.
Row 1: (L) Shan Annabelle Valla (R) Sarah Morpeth, Row 2: (L) Sarah Morpeth (R) Ali Nash
After that show I was convinced that I need to return each year to peruse Origin because it was incredibly inspiring to me – but I wouldn't want to go alone… Being with my friends made it so much nicer. I took some snaps with my iPhone camera of a few makers who caught my eye and thought I'd quickly share them with you. I hope you've liked seeing them. Please click on the links to learn more.

Thank you ladies for a lovely afternoon at Origin. Until next year, cheers!

Your day sounds like a slice of heaven – browsing and sharing with friends is so invigorating. I have to say, I'm with Sania here – lately I've been sooo drawn to grays, other neutrals. pales and texture with a capital T.
That said, I covet your bright, cheery stripey/fair isle woolens – They look great "posed" on the natural linen-y couch.

Hi Holly! I agree….it's fun to see what types of things your friends are drawn, too. Usually there's similarities in what we like but their tastes are different enough from ours to make it interesting. :)
I love Abigail Brown's work, too! I interviewed her as one of the artists for my e-course. She's also super kind and, of course, amazingly talented.
Hope to see you if and when you come to Seattle for your next book tour…hint, hint. xo!

Nice pic's by the way.
Thanks in advance.

What position does Raytheon Anschütz have in the REACH process?
Raytheon Anschütz GmbH is an internationally operating manufacturer and trade company of navigation equipment and systems. Main relevance for REACH is given for producers/importers of chemicals, substances and preparation if the amount of 1t/a will be exceeded. But with respect to the REACH definition Raytheon Anschütz is acting as downstream user, therefore as downstream user and trader of articles mainly the duty of information has to be fulfilled.
Main focus for Raytheon Anschütz is to ensure supply to our customers. Therefore we need continuity in the total supply chain, which has been ensured by several actions taken. We have contacted a wide range of our supplier to make them notice to their REACH requirements. Furthermore, we have figured out, that we do not see the need for preregistration of any substance used within Raytheon Anschütz.
The biggest concern for downstream users is that the products containing SVHCs ( Substances of very high concern) would become unavailable. At this moment there are 84 substances on the SVHC candidate list and 14 substance on SVHC authorization list (updated on 18 June 2012).
We are internally screening all these potential SVHC against our product lists. None of these substances show relevance to the overall Raytheon Anschütz product range.
