Etherium Gold is the only monatomic gold product whose efficacy has been clinically proven to enhance brain function. Many experience enhanced mental clarity, greater mind/body coordination, improved learning ability, increased creativity, and calmer reactions to stressful situations
Thousands of people from all walks of life have benefited from Etherium Gold. Many have been able to use Etherium Gold for learning disabilities. Many athletes, especially those in the Martial Arts love Etherium Gold because it tends to promote greater mind/body integration.
It contains
electromagnetic frequency and wave patterns that increase alpha brain wave production through an electromagnetic modality that harmonizes the two hemispheres of the brain. It works very well whenever increased mental focus is essential. This can be before an important career meeting or event, or simply wanting to pay more attention to a teacher or a public speaker. Whenever you want to be more present in any situation, Etherium Gold will keep you more focused and attuned.
This powder is from a trace mineral deposit caused by a meteorite implosion. Etherium Gold includes the monatomic mineral elements of gold, iridium, rhodium, silver, platinum and chromium. It is often referred to as white gold powder, or the acronyms ORMUS or ORMES.
Most customers report feeling the effects of Etherium Gold almost immediately. The senses become enhanced. Visualizations
and audio signals are usually intensified during meditation. Some may
not feel anything for several days, and some may not feel anything at all. But
regardless of whether you FEEL Etherium Gold or not, it is having an effect,
as observed with Kirlian photography. In the months ahead, with conscious
observation of your life, you will notice a change for the better as it opens
your light body and allows the gifts of the universe to come into your life.
The sleeping prophet, Edgar Cayce, spoke about the
healing use of the gold vibratory energy as a treatment to the coordination of
impulses in the nervous system. According to Dr. Richard Gerber,
M.D., author of "Vibrational Medicine", states:
"Etherium Gold is
a product well suited
to individuals beginning to
open to higher consciousness,
self-healing, and a path of
spiritual transformation."

Many people experience
expansionary states after consuming Etherium Gold monatomic minerals. These experiences appear to be similar
to those recorded in ancient texts that describe the use of "white powder of
gold." It is also known as the Philosophers' Stone, mfkzt, manna, shem-an-na,
and by other names. White gold was created alchemically by some ancient
civilizations for the purpose of expanding consciousness, heightening abilities
of the leaders, and as a part of certain ceremonies. It was usually reserved
for the higher echelons in society or religious orders, often times given to
initiates being promoted to a higher status within the group.
left-brain dominant people will have more of a mental experience. This
may not occur for several days, but many become aware of enhanced mental acuity
with improved mental focus. Oftentimes more energy is experienced and sleeping
patterns change with less sleep being required. Quite often physical stamina
and endurance is also increased.
The right-brain functioning creative soul
will usually have their Etherium experience much quicker than their left-brained
brother/sister. Their initial experience may be more spiritual in nature. Opening
up as a universal receptor (a term that many have used to describe the experience),
the creative forces within are magnified. A sensitivity to the surrounding
universal fields and energies are experienced.
Practitioners and body-workers
who practice healing by manipulating and balancing the subtle energy fields of
the body report greater sensitivity to these fields, resulting in a quicker response
time in obtaining the desired results. Likewise, counselors and therapists
notice accelerated response time with clients and desired changes are integrated
at deeper levels of consciousness improving the potential for permanent life
As the electromagnetic
frequencies are raised, the mind, regardless of left or right orientation, becomes
integrated and more acute. Thoughts are clearer and more powerful. Left-brain
people report enhanced creativity, and right-brain people have felt a greater
foundation in their thought process. Some have even reported starting
to plan their day! Could this be the first sign of an integration in the
brain that dissolves dualistic perception and propagates the realization that
we are all part of the One? Could these 'dormant' areas become receptors
to universal intelligence?
Gold helps clear thought patterns and emotions that no longer serve us. This clearing eliminates mental
confusion and promotes clear intention and mental focus. As thoughts become
more focused, the vibrational difference between our thoughts, and the object
of our thoughts, is reduced.
the time required to manifest our needs and desires and bring them into physical
reality is also reduced.
the time required to manifest our needs and desires and bring them into physical

creative forces, which we experience as an increase of serendipity in our lives,
are put into action. Quite simply, the flow of life begins to flow more
smoothly. The amount of conscious effort normally required to create a
particular manifestation becomes effortless, and we become graceful in every

our energy fields become aligned with the cosmic energies that surround us, evolution
to our highest potential takes place, and we live in a state of health.
The gift
of Etherium Gold is that it helps us attract what we want, and avoid what we
do not want. It breaks down restrictive and repetitive patterns within the current
reality structure at the cellular level and opens up possibilities that have
not previously been considered.
Harmonic Innerprizes has taken considerable measures to assure the utmost safety of their monatomic mineral products. Etherium Gold has endured extensive laboratory examination including an FDA Acute Oral Toxicity Screen and also measured for radioactivity.
In the Acute Toxicity Study, the rats were fed Etherium Gold at 50 times our recommended dosage calibrated down to their weight/size for fourteen days. All the rats in the test group remained healthy, gained weight, and no toxicity was observed during the study and after under gross necropsy. To see the complete report of this laboratory study click here.
In October of 1995, an independent laboratory study was performed to measure any radiation emitting from Etherium Gold. Gross alpha, gross beta and gamma were measured. The radiation from Etherium Gold was measured as insignificant and no greater than what one would expect to find in normal food. To see this complete laboratory report click here.
In 1996 they conducted hair analysis on six individuals who signed affidavits stating that they have taken Etherium Gold every day for at least six months at or above the recommended dosage. The purpose was to determine if any of the mineral elements in Etherium Gold were accumulating in the body to toxic levels. The results of these reports showed that no individual exhibited heavy metal toxicity or exceeded the standard deviation for mineral imbalances as a result of taking Etherium Gold.

How to Use the Etherium Montaomic Mineral Products
In a study conducted by the Mind Spa in Norcross, Georgia, biofeedback
indicates that individual become more balanced and calm after administration
of Etherium Gold. This preliminary study shows a clear decrease in emotional
reactivity and greater relaxation.
According to Robert Dallas, PhD., Director of the Mind Spa, the most obvious and consistent results occurred in the EEG measurements after taking Etherium Gold. In 90% of the volunteers brainwave frequencies tended to balance out and all frequency bands showed greater activation.
As Dallas further observes; "We could casually say that people with high theta activity (as compared to beta) are considered to be "right brained," (creative, meditative, artistic, spatially oriented). People with high beta activity (as compared to theta) are considered to be "left brained," (logical, mathematically inclined, linearly oriented). Etherium Gold balances the differences in the strength of these frequency ranges between the right and left hemispheres of the brain. It is therefore a very accurate statement to say that Etherium Gold tends toward helping people become more whole brained."
In conclusion, this preliminary study shows clear evidence that there is a positive neurological impact, at least temporarily, through the administration of Etherium Gold. The indication is that it somehow provides an environment whereby the brain moves toward a state of homeostasis.
The Alphalearning
Institute in Switzerland has recently conducted a study with Etherium Gold, and
has come to the following significant conclusions:
AlphaLearning Institute Report
While Harmonic Innerprizes (formerly Etherium Technology) acknowledges
the presence of monatomic elements (also called ormus, ormes and white gold), in Etherium Gold, they
do not believe that the profound benefits experienced by most people are the
result of the isolated action of monoatomics alone. Rather, they believe the
experiences are the result of a dynamic, interactive relationship between the
specific combination of monatomic elements and Etherium Gold's remarkable double
vortex pattern. Both are explained below.
The monatomic elements found in Etherium Gold include monatomic gold,
silver, iridium, rhodium, chromium, and platinum. See the full list of mineral components. When these elements are in their
monatomic form they are actually in a high-spin state and thereby act as superconductors. A
superconductor is a substance which allows energy, or consciousness, to flow
without resistance even in the absence of a continually applied potential. Such
a superconductor process is the basis for the biological, physiological, and
phychological phenomena of telepathy, precognition, translocation, etc. Some
speculate that:
consumption of these high-spin elements will facilitate the metamorphosis of
the physical body to the light body, and assist with the journey into the realms
of higher consciousness. Etherium Gold provides significant levels of monoatomic

Analysis of Etherium Gold
Vortex Pattern
Known by physicists as "the birth of matter from energy",
this double vortex pattern is thought by scientists to be the pattern through
which all life is created. Etherium Gold has an electromagnetic pattern that
is similar, if not identical, to the same pattern that energy flows when it is
transmuted into matter.
Physicists believe that when energy forms matter, it
begins by moving in a clockwise motion. As its speed increases, a vortex begins
to form. Centrifugal force causes the energy to rise and the circumference of
the spin becomes tighter and tighter. The energy in the vortex eventually reaches
an apex where it cannot go any further and it implodes within itself. From the
implosion, another vortex is formed and it moves counterclockwise and as it descends
it slows. Eventually it slows to a point where matter forms. At first single
atomic (monoatomic) states appear, and eventually more complex atomic states.
from Etherium Gold Electromagnetic Analysis Report
by Scientist specializing in Electromagnetic Frequencies and Soils
for over 25 years:
material seems to divide it's energy into two opposite projected and polarized
units, then the wave forms unite into one by centripetal compression. These
wave forms carry a close resemblance to the body's energy channels referred to
seems to be a high electrical potential created around this sample, with high
standing waves being produced. Information that makes up the human body
unit could be translated (moved) in time and space when this material is ingested."
"What is taking
place at the point of unity of the two waveforms, one can only guess. Perhaps
an entry to another level of spirituality or unity in one's whole body, mind
and spirit. Wellness from any illness could also be a resultant factor."

What is New Urbanism? CNU video competition winner
Tags: congress for the new urbanism, film contest, infrastructure, new urbanist, nrdc, sprawl
In case you've ever wondered what New Urbanism is, here's an entertaining video, which won a contest sponsored by the Congress for the New Urbanism.
The film, which was produced by First + Main Media from Julian, California, and Paget Films from Buffalo, New York, visually represents New Urbanist ideas and blames sprawl for the end of civilization. But, it's a good introduction to New Urbanist ideas.
Congress for the New Urbanism created the film contest to promote its annual conference. This year's conference, "CNU 17," will be held in Denver on June 10-14. Here's a link to some of the other submissions to the contest. Via NRDC.org.


text: We'll let Kurt Russell give you the pitch. ''This movie asks the question: If you take one foot and you step into hell, can you actually come back?'' Based on a James Ellroy story and adapted by ''Training Day'''s David Ayer (though Russell himself took a few runs at the script), ''Dark Blue'' follows a tough, tortured Los Angeles cop trying to solve a quadruple homicide in the few days in April 1992 just before the Rodney King verdicts are announced. Doesn't exactly sound like the most natural fit for director Ron Shelton -- best known for ''Bull Durham'' and ''Tin Cup,'' romantic comedies about baseball and golf. ''I'm much more interested in politics than sports,'' the director admits. ''It just doesn't look that way from my filmography.'' Russell says he and Shelton clicked over the protagonist's ambiguity. ''We didn't think he was just a bigot, we didn't think he was just a killer, we didn't think he was just a bad guy or a bad cop -- we thought that was fairly uninteresting,'' the actor says. ''This was a guy [who] at heart was someone you could relate to and wouldn't mind having in your life -- doing deeds that we know are wrong.'' (Feb. 21)

Loudness control, Danish-styleFeatured, Industry News — By Colin on March 12, 2013 08:33
TC Electronics is one of the technology companies committed to solving the problems TV viewers experience with loudness. HD Development Manager, Thomas Lund (pictured, left) and many others around the industry are striving to create tools that are more appropriate to modern consumption, on everything from micro speakers on mobile devices to higher resolution home cinema systems.
New TC Electronics products adhere to the ITU-R BS.1770 specification, controlling loudness and avoiding overload during production and distribution. TC Electronics' processors and meters are fully compliant with BS.1770, and developed to comply with the subsequent improvements – BS.1770-2, EBU R128, TR-B32. The company also embraces and supports the development of open standards and, in Thomas's words:
"will continue optimizing delivery of data reduced formats such as AC3, MP3, AAC, DD+, Ogg Vorbis etc., and we will refine trickle-down techniques for dealing easily with multiple platforms without locking broadcasters into proprietary solutions".

Fed Policy Creates Wall Street Shenanigans
Least Favored in 2013: Featuring the year's shockers from Wall Street to Washington. Read Fed Policy shenanigans; Tech spies; SeaWorld tragedy; Caterpillar-China scandal; Bud Beer scandal; Bill Ackman's Herbalife; LIBOR rigging; Forex Scandal; and check out this video CEO Walk of Shame.
NEW YORK (TheStreet) -- Wednesday's Federal Open Market Committee meeting celebrates the fifth anniversary of the 0.0% to 0.25% federal funds rate, which has been bailing out the big money center and regional banks but has not trickled down to help to consumers and small businesses on Main Street.
The statement from Wednesday's FOMC meeting implied that we will likely celebrate a sixth anniversary a year from now. The Federal Reserve did decide to begin to taper its quantitative easing programs in January lowering monthly purchases of mortgage-backed securities by $5 billion to $35 billion per month and purchases of U.S. Treasuries by $5 billion to $40 billion.Fed policy has been designed to lower long-term interest rates but instead longer-term yields are on the rise. The yield on the U.S. Treasury 10-Year note was as low as 1.614% on May 1 and traded as high as 2.929% after the Federal Reserve's statement. This puts upward pressure on mortgage rates while refueling speculation in commodities and the stock markets. Ben Bernanke's monetary policy has resulted in Wall Street shenanigans that allow professional investors and traders to speculate in commodities and the stock market resulting in bubbles that always pop. The housing bubble popped between mid-2005 and mid-2006 and is now re-inflating. The crude oil bubble popped in mid-2008 and the gold bubble popped in the third quarter of 2011. The easy money and Wall Street shenanigans had the major equity averages to peak in late-2007 with a quick bear market into March 2009 when the S&P 500 test the devilish 666 handle. The rally since than is creating the biggest stock market bubbles ever.

This American manufacturer of geothermal heat pumps and photovoltaic heat recovery solutions contacted me after reading my article Consolidation and Integration in the Solar PV Business, in order to create a financial and product specification model for a new product.
Work completed
The successful completion of the financial modeling assignment led to many others over the subsequent couple of years, in order to make the company more attractive to customers, partners and investors:
- Product marketing: full automation of sales proposal tool, multichannel marketing campaign planning, range of marketing materials including brochures, thought leadership material e.g. articles, tradeshow material and booth, social media strategy and training, recommendations on website and CRM system, market validation through tradeshow participation and sales follow-up, funding proposals, branding & visual identity guide
- Product management: market selection (including the Market Reach workshop), comparative financial comparisons, distribution strategy, market research, recommendations on new product commercial plan, financing partnership support, review of public incentives for new product
- Investment preparation: fundraising roadmap recommendations, valuation, business plan, introduction and consultation with respected investors
- Strategic partnership: management of key strategic partnership with multinational telecom company, leading to multiple sales opportunities
- Corporate development: sales job descriptions, assistance with recruiting of several technical sales manager, performance management and turnaround recommendations, leadership coaching
Key contributions
- One of the key challenges the company faced was to reduce the time it took to complete sales proposals. The company traditionally relied on a set of paper tools that made the system sizing process slow and incomplete (the tools excluded any financial optimization). GrowthRoute automated it entirely in Excel, creating modules for over 15 different applications and training the new sales team on it.
The tool now optimizes systems based both on energy needs and financial return, a first in the renewable energy system space. It also produces full-text proposals automatically that require less than an hour to create with client data.
- The extensive market validation effort highlighted the importance of narrowing the effort to a more specific geographical area and range of industries. It also surfaced promising areas for improvements with the existing line of product. For new product plans, it outlined the core benefits of the technology, altering the original assumptions in the process.
- Discussions with investors pinpointed the changes required for an external investment, and helped narrow down the focus of the company further. GrowthRoute also computed a realistic valuation for the company based on multiple methodologies.
- A casual contact from a multinational executive, managed by GrowthRoute into joint sales proposals, pointed to the vast commercial potential of the product, subject to some performance improvements.

I smoke and can salmon every year, and it's ironic that you would ask this
question today when I'm mailing my annual Christmas allocation to my family.
I always add about one to 1.5 tablespoons of canola oil to my 1/2 pint jars
before I put in the smoked salmon for canning. I've never heard of this
being a problem, and I've been doing it for a long time. I worked in the
salmon canning industry for many years, and adding a tablespoon of salmon
oil to each can was an industry standard for a long time. You probably know
that quite a bit of moisture comes out of the salmon flesh when it's cooked,
so I can appreciate perhaps not wanting to fill it beyond the head space.
But that's a no-brainer anyway.
<[email protected]> wrote in message
news:[email protected]...
>I have been looking at various recipes for canning salmon,
> particularly smoked salmon.
> Can anyone explain why many recipes say not to add liquid to the jars?
> I understand that head space must be maintained, but what would be the
> problem with adding broth or oil if I wanted too? Is a mater of taste
> or is safty an issue?
> Thanks.

The Best Stateside Colleges for Meeting Royals
All over the United States, anxious high-school students and college graduates ready for another round of education are scouring the mail for big envelopes. As the acceptance letters come pouring in, these prospective students have some important matters to consider. The first question they should ask is: "Does the school have an extant endowment?" But the second should be: "What are my chances of meeting a dashing royal during orientation?" We at Royal Watch have noticed that quite a few of the world's princes, princesses, and other nobles alight to the U.S. for their undergraduate and graduate studies. We've compiled a short list of the American universities with high rates of royal enrollment. And it's something to think about. After all, this could give "homecoming queen" a whole new meaning.Georgetown University
The real reason royals flock to Georgetown is the university's Edmund A. Walsh School of Foreign Service, which offers both undergraduate and graduate programs. (If it was good enough for Bill Clinton ) One recent royal grad is Prince Philippos of Greece and Denmark, 23, the youngest son of exiled monarch King Constantine II of Greece, 70. Philippos graduated in 2008 with a B.A. in foreign relations. His older brother, Crown Prince Pavlos of Greece and Denmark, 42, attended Georgetown from 1990 to 1995, graduating with a degree in international-relations law followed by a master's in international relations and economics.
While at Georgetown, Pavlos kept it in the family by rooming with his cousin Felipe, Prince of Asturias, 42, who happens to be the heir apparent to the Spanish throne. Prince Felipe graduated with a master's degree from the university in May 1995. Not only does Felipe have a throne to call his own but he also has one of the best-dressed wives around.
Other notable Hoyas include the Netherlands' Prince Bernhard, 40, who studied economics; Jordan's King Abdullah II, 48; and Prince Mohammed bin Nawaf Al-Saud, 57, who is the current Saudi Arabian ambassador to the U.K. and Ireland.
Brown University
Trying to convince your parents that this organic-minded Ivy is more than just a hippy-dippy, braless paradise with no core curriculum? Consider the royal pedigree of its alumni. After all, Lady Gabriella Windsor, 28, the daughter of Britain's Prince Michael of Kent and Princess Michael of Kent, studied comparative literature and Hispanic studies here. Rather than rest on her
tiaralaurels, after her B.A., Ella, as she prefers to be called, branched out as a freelance journalist and has contributed to the Spectator magazine and the Mail on Sunday. (She was also a Vanity Fair intern.) Meanwhile, the recently engaged Prince Nikolaos of Greece and Denmark, 40, brother of Philippos and Pavlos, graduated from Brown in 1993 with a bachelor's degree in international relations in 1993. Afterward, he spent two years working as a producer for Fox News. His younger sister, Princess Theodora of Greece and Denmark, 26, followed his steps when she transferred from Northeastern University, in Boston, to Brown, graduating in 2006 with a B.A. in theater arts.
Columbia University
Royal scholars don't tend to number among Columbia's undergrads. It's the school's graduate programs that attract crowns. Prince Hussain Aga Khan, 34, met his future wife, Princess Khaliya, when she was Kristin White and they were both graduate students at Columbia. She got her master's in public health, he in international affairs. They married on September 18, 2006, at the Château de Chantilly, outside Paris in a religious ceremony that reflected the groom's status as the second son of Prince Karim Aga Khan—spiritual leader to the world's 15 million Shia Ismalii Muslims. The Princess, who was born in 1976, took the name Khaliya upon converting to Islam.
Harvard and Princeton Universities
Nods of acknowledgement are owed to Princeton and Harvard Universities. Before she married the late King Hussein of Jordan, becoming Queen Noor, Lisa Najeeb Halaby received a B.A. in architecture and urban planning from Princeton in 1974. The Queen, 58, entered Princeton in 1969, with the school's first co-educational freshman class. Before the school admitted women, Prince Saud Al-Faisal Ibn Abdul Aziz Al-Saud, born in 1940, matriculated there as an undergraduate, receiving a B.A. in economics in 1964. He's now Saudi Arabia's minister of foreign affairs.
Before she was a troubled Japanese royal married to Crown Prince Naruhito, Crown Princess Masako, 46, then Masako Owada, graduated with a undergraduate degree in economics from Harvard, in 1985. Raja Nazrin Shah, 53, eldest son of the Sultan of Perak, 81, the ceremonial leader of the Malaysian state of Perak, received two degrees from Harvard: first, a master's in public administration, followed by a PhD in political economy and government. Phew!

Advice re: Endorsment into Texas with a Reprimand on my license! - page 2
I need some advice on what to expect from the Texas Board of Nursing. I have sent all of my required paperwork in for endorsement into Texas, the issue is that I have a reprimand on my license with no restrictions from 5 years... Read More
- 0May 8, '12 by MissRNBlue803I totally understand n thanks so much....I will definitely keep u posted...
- 0Jun 1, '12 by nurseoknoodleheadWell it is June 1 st and I found out yesterday that my application is being sent to the enforcement division. That has put a huge strain on my relocating to Texas. I'll be moving Monday and I just hope that they get on top of their investigations. I can only work on my temp license for 2 more months! I just don't understand it. I have no criminal record, just a stupid reprimand for not overdosing my patient. Like what is there to investigate???? Anyways, has anyone every been processed through the enforcement department in less than their stated 4 month time frame????
- 0Jun 1, '12 by MSTXnurseYes, people have been processed before that time but more and more people are waiting over 6 1/2 months for investigation recommendations and if you are given any type of reprimands/ recommendations it takes an additional 4 to 6 weeks to have that completed and you get a final report.. so roughly total 8 months from enforcement intial review, not the day you sent your application in to TBON..I am not sure whether they have any information to let you know what TBON recommendations are for your case.... hopefully someone will respond that has has medication reprimand or you can check site for people who has been reprimanded by TBON and see what their recommendations/ stipulations were? Just my insight.... Hope I helped...
- 0Jul 23, '12 by nurseoknoodleheadWell it's getting down to the expiration of my temp license. I've been researching what other jobs I would qualify for. I know the job market is saturated and jobs are hard to come by therefore this will be no easy feat. What is a nurse to do though? I have to take care of my family and make sure the bills get paid. If anyone has any suggestions to what kind of job market I should be looking in I would greatly appreciate it.
- 0Nov 28, '12 by nurseoknoodleheadWell I thought I would give an update on my situation. I was able to speak to someone in the enforcement department on October 19th which was a few days after my 6 month mark in the enforcement department. They informed me that I would be receiving an eligibility order in the mail in 4 to 6 weeks. At that time it will need to be signed in front of a notary and mailed back to the TBNE. It has been 4 1/2 weeks already and I am patiently waiting for something to come in the mail. This whole process is so frustrating. Luckily I have a wonderful husband with a good job otherwise I would not have made it this far. So to sum things up...... Originally began this process on April 2, 2012. Sent to enforcement on July 15th, 2012..... According to TBNE projections I should have a RN license number prior to the new year. I pray for anyone that is having to go through this.
- 0Nov 29, '12 by nurseoknoodleheadWhen I spoke to them the only thing they could disclose to me was that I will be required to take a class but they couldn't specify which one and that's all they could tell me over the phone
I am hoping that I just have to take one class and that they give me a year to do it and that they didn't impose any restrictions on my license. I am so ready to go back to work.
- 1Nov 29, '12 by MSTXnurseI think it is an ethics course. You can take it soon as you get letter and send your completed information to BON. The course cost @250 to 300$. They will remove from your license afterward. So, you will be okay. Good luck!
- 0Dec 6, '12 by nurseoknoodleheadOK so I received my eligibility order in the mail yesterday, signed it etc... mailed it back with delivery confirmation. They received it today! MSTXnurse how long did it take them to issue you a license #??? I am so eager to get that license # and begin applying for positions so I can go back to work! You were right, I will need to complete a jurisprudence/ethics course within one year and when it is complete they will remove it from my license! I am hoping I get a license prior to Xmas. That would be the best Xmas gift to me!

Lee Pace in Pushing Daisies by Bob D'Amico/ABC
Could the third time be the charm? Being an eternal optimist when it comes to TV shows I love, I certainly hope so. For the third season in a row, the show Ive picked as my favorite pilot of the fall season is on ABC, and once again, after two consecutive seasons of my pick failing to make the grade, this shows projected success is far from a slam dunk. But let me tell you why I believe, despite all logical skepticism to the contrary, that the dazzling forensic fairy tale called Pushing Daisies has a shot at making it.First, heres why my earlier picks didnt pan out. For one thing, both shows — Invasion in 2005, The Nine in 2006 — had the mixed fortune of being scheduled directly after Lost. (As weve learned, the Lost viewing experience is so intense and its fan base so obsessed that its pure folly to put any show, especially a demanding one, after Lost.) Both shows were also exceedingly dark in tone, whereas Pushing Daisies...

Question: Is someone making a new remake of The Blob, or am I going insane? If so, do you have any plot details? I hope they cast Shawnee Smith in the lead again — she was awesome in the '88 version.Answer: Superproducer Scott Rudin is indeed developing another remake of the 1950s sci-fi/teen picture The Blob for Paramount Pictures. The screenwriters include House of Wax remake scripters Chad Hayes and Carey Hayes, and Joe Ballarini, who's sold several high-profile but unproduced scripts. The Blob deal was struck immediately after Revolution Studios secured the rights to remake

A Crochet Easter Basket Butter Tub Cozy Inspired By Great Grandma
As a I child, I didn't fully appreciate what a blessing it was to be related to Eleanor Case. She was my Great Grandmother and one of the most talented crafters I've ever known. I spent many Sunday nights learning to crochet at the weekly craft gatherings she hosted in her kitchen.
Great Grandma Case stitched without patterns and turned out beautiful baby sweaters, booties, bonnets and blankets with speed and grace. And I just loved her silver hair that was always pulled back in a neat bun.
Great Grandma Case died when I was 10, but not before making a strong impression on me. I loved to watch her stitch and remember thinking she was totally amazing. Today I'm standing in my kitchen with my brown hair twisted up in the messy bun I frequently wear, thinking about what a blessing it is to be related to such a talented and inspiring woman.
Great Grandma used to make the children in the family crocheted Easter baskets similar to the one below. I don't have her pattern, so I cooked this one up my own and remembered those Sunday nights at her kitchen table as I stitched. I hope this pattern inspires you to start a new handmade Easter tradition of your own.
Crochet Easter Basket Butter Tub Cozy
By Jennifer Ackerman-Haywood
Inspired by Great Grandma Case, a craft goddess with a silver bun
* Size H/8 , 5 mm crochet hook
* Yarn needle
* Plastic butter tub or Cool Whip container measuring about 5 1/4" in diameter
* Yarn (I used Sugar'n Cream, but any worsted weight cotton works.)
Instructions: Ch. 6, slip st. to form ring
Rnd 1: ch 3, dc 11 stitches into ring, slip stitch to top of ch 3 (12 sts.)
Rnd 2: Ch 3, dc in same st, 2 dc in every stitch all the way around, slip stitch to top of ch 3 (24 sts.)
Rnd. 3: Ch 3, dc in same st, dc into next dc * 2 dc into next dc, dc into next dc, repeat from * slip stitch to top of ch 3 (36 sts.)
Rnd 4: Ch 3, dc in same st, dc into next dc * 2 dc into next dc, dc into next dc, repeat from * slip stitch to top of ch 3. (54 sts.)
Rnd 5: Ch 3, dc in same st, dc into next dc * 2 dc into next dc, dc into next dc, repeat from * slip stitch to top of ch 3.
Rnd 6: Ch 2, sc in next st, place marker, sc in each stitch all the way around.
Rnd 7 and all remaining rounds: Continue to sc in each stitch in a spiral until the basket is tall enough to cover the butter tub. (Try the basket on the tub as you work to determine how much more stitching you need to do. The crochet basket should stretch over the plastic tub for a snug fit.) Break off yarn and weave in ends.
Basket Handle
Rnd 1: Ch 40 (or more if you prefer a longer handle)
Rnd 2: Sc in second st from hook, sc in each st.
Rnd 3 & 4: Ch 2, turn work, sc in each stitch to end.
Break off yarn leaving a long tale. With the basket on the tub, stitch the handle to the basket with a yarn needle. Fill basket with treats and enjoy!

[…] CraftSanity is far from insane when it comes to the wonderful craft ideas she has, such as this easy and cute crocheted Easter basket. You can get the full directions on her weblog, which has all kinds of other wonderful projects, podcasts, and generally good crafting information. This idea originated with her great grandmother who used to recycle plastic butter tubs or cool whip containers, cover them with crochet goodness, and voila, and Easter basket for the kids. This so reminded my of my own sweetheart of a grandma who used to recycle jars and even the plastic dishes from Dairy Queen. With all this talk of "going green" today, they were obviously way ahead of their time. […]

my christmas wish list
My friend Samantha put up her Christmas wish list on her blog yesterday, and I thought it was so much fun! I absolutely love peeking at what people want for Christmas—so I thought I'd do it, too! Now, my list is pretty moot for a number of reasons (we don't exchange gifts in my family and Craig and I have already decided to do a handmade only Christmas) but it's still fun to think about what things you want Santa to leave under the tree. Oh, to have unlimited spending money. Onto the list…
- Super Natural Cooking & Super Natural Every Day. I'm hesitant to admit I don't read a lot of the "big" food blogs (for various reasons), so I honestly had no idea who Heidi Swanson was until my sister-in-law handed me these cookbooks to browse through. I want to make every single recipe.
- New coffee mug. Just on Sunday my curvetastic hips bumped into a side table and sent my favorite mug off the edge to it's doom. I'm sad. And need to find a new mug that fills my requirements: large, big handle, cute. I really like this purple one from Uncommon Goods, but I'm not about to spent $22 on one, single mug. No-sir-ee.
- Indiana necklace. I've coveted this Indiana state necklace for years. Years, I say! If I got it, I'd want it on a nice long chain. I <3 long necklaces.
- Candy-stripe pants. Speaking of Indiana, please someone get this girl a pair of candy-stripe pants, already! For the longest time, these suckers weren't sold to the public (well, adult-sizes at least), but just recently they started selling them and I WANT.
- Tart pan. I have no real need for a tart pan, but gosh, they are so fun. And I'd come up with uses! I want them in all different sizes. The tiny ones are particularly adorable.
- Good yoga mat. My current yoga mat is (a) a $5 one from a hardware store and (b) living in the barn. I'd love a nice cushy, non-slip beautiful mat. And a towel to go with it wouldn't suck either.
- SmartWool knee-high socks. I'm currently deep in the midst of a hate-hate relationship with my sock drawer. Most of my socks are cheap things from discount stores. I want adult socks! That are warm! And cozy! And expensive.
- Pink work gloves. I'd really like a pair of obnoxiously bright pink work gloves for working around the property. Random, right?
- Red stripe short overalls. I think my transformation to a country girl will be complete the second I own these.
What's on your wish list this year?
1. I can't make single smoothies. I'm historically bad at spatial reasoning and whenever I go to make a single smoothie just for me it always ends up being enough to serve a small army.
2. I love ABC Family movies. Especially Christmas ones. They are awesome. My DVR? Full of 'em.
3. I dyed my hair back all one color this past weekend. And it's bittersweet. On one hand, I flippin' loved having crazy-colored hair. It's like the end of a very colorful era. But, on the other hand, natural hair color is much more appropriate for my I-now-live-in-the-middle-of-nowhere lifestyle. I didn't see myself making the 30-45 minute commute to a salon every six weeks to get my streaks redone. Rest in peace, red/blue/purple/pink/blonde streaks.
4. We bought an obnoxious amount of alcohol this weekend. I could give the excuse that we're stocking up for a holiday party, but we aren't. We just really like delicious booze.
5. I haven't done a real workout in about two weeks. I'm definitely stuck deep in the no-motivation snowball. I should feel guilty about it, but sometimes I think we all need a break. Someday I'll step foot in a gym again, today is just not that day.

- Tolkien Library Resources for ENG221
- Reserve materials
- Works of literary criticism
- Other Reference Sources
Reserve Materials
Your instructor has put many resources on reserve for this class. Reserve materials are at the Circulation desk in the Salem campus library. Go to items on reserve for ENG221 for a list of resources on reserve for this class.
The personal reserve copies (PC) can be checked out only on a Chemeketa ID and cannot be requested through the system to be sent to other libraries. Other copies of the same books, however, are available for request and checkout in the CCRLS or Summit systems. See
Two of the reserve list books, Lord of the rings, 1954-2004 and Hobbits, Elves, and Wizards ..., are also available online as Chemeketa e-books.
Works of Literary Criticism
These materials talk about the theme, style, structure, and purpose of literary works. You can find the information in books or in journal articles.
The best place to start is probably:
- Literature Resource Center
- Includes more than 650,000 full-text articles, critical essays and reviews from over 300 scholarly journals and literary magazines. Also includes book reviews in the popular press. The default search is by author, or you can click "Title" to search for a particular work. After searching, click the "Literary Criticism" tab. There is a sub-tab for Articles. See picture below.
More information on how to use Literature Resource Center is available at Literature Resource Center: A Guide to the Basics.
Finding Books
To find more books on Tolkien, search in a library catalog. The CCRLS catalog covers Chemeketa and the public libraries in its area.
The Summit catalog covers 37 college and university libraries in Oregon and Washington.
See below for more information and a detailed map of Summit libraries.
In any catalog, you may have to do several searches to find books that might be pertinent to your subject.
If you live in the Chemeketa Cooperative Regional Library Service (CCRLS) district, you may also access the catalog online at your local public library. In addition to the books in the Chemeketa College Library, the catalog also contains the collections of the 17 public libraries located in the regional library district. You can request books through the catalog, and can pass your search through to Summit (see below).
Chemeketa students registered for credit may use Summit, the Orbis Cascade Alliance catalog, to request items from 37 member libraries in Oregon, Washington, and now Idaho. Summit uses a search called WorldCat. Authorized users have access to all of the material in the Chemeketa Community College library, plus about 28 million items in Summit. Chemeketa users may request items using the barcode number from their ID card, and have them sent to Chemeketa, or they may set up a Visiting Patron account at another Alliance library.

Finding Journal Articles
Literature Resource Center, described above, includes journal articles as well as material from books. Another source for articles is JSTOR:

We can review the history of addictive diseases in terms of Super Bowl freak-outs - that is, how players defined and reacted to their substance abuse right before the big game. Three in particular come to mind as representing the major ages of addiction in sports - Denying the Disease (DD), Accepting the Disease (AD), Before the Disease (BD).
DD: Denying the Disease. Stanley Wilson was the Cincinnati Bengal tailback who was found high on cocaine in his bathroom the night before playing the San Francisco 49ers in Super Bowl XXIII in 1989. Wilson was no stranger to addiction treatment - he had been suspended twice previously by the NFL for his cocaine use. After this episode, he was banned from football for life.
Ten years later Wilson was was sentenced to 22 years for home robbery. Wilson never "got with the program" despite being in and out of rehab. On the positive side, his son Stanley Wilson Jr. attended Stanford University and went on to become a professional football player himself. (The bad news there - he plays for the Detroit Lions.)
AD: Accepting the Disease. Unlike Wilson, Barret Robbins, a star center for the Oakland Raiders for nine years, accepted his diagnosis for bipolar disorder and supervision and medication for his disease. Nonetheless, Robbins experienced an emotional collapse before Super Bowl XXXVII with Tampa Bay in San Diego in 2003. He was found wandering drunk in Tijuana the night before the game.
