ST. LOUIS — During the day, the blocks surrounding the Mount Grace Convent seem to reflect the tranquility inside the cloister walls. With the exception of the hum of traffic on nearby Interstate 70 and the church bells that ring hourly, it's a quiet neighborhood.
In tough part of St. Louis, cloistered nuns continue to pray

About the Essure ® Procedure
The Essure procedure, FDA approved since 2002, is the only surgery-free and hormone-free permanent birth control method that can be performed in the comfort of a physician's office in less than 10 minutes (average hysteroscopic time) without the risks associated with general anesthesia or tubal ligation. Soft, flexible inserts are placed in a woman's fallopian tubes through the cervix without incisions. Over the next three months, the body works with the inserts to form a natural barrier in the fallopian tubes to prevent sperm from reaching the egg. Three months after the Essure procedure, an Essure Confirmation Test is given to confirm that the inserts are in place and that the fallopian tubes are blocked, verifying that the patient can rely on Essure for permanent birth control.
The Essure procedure is 99.83% effective based on five years of follow up with zero pregnancies reported in clinical trials, making it the most effective permanent birth control available. Essure's 10-year commercial data tracks closely with its five-year clinical results, and Essure has been proven and trusted by physicians since 2002. The Essure procedure is covered in the U.S. by most public and private insurance plans and approximately 730,000 women worldwide have undergone the procedure.About Conceptus ®, Inc. Conceptus, Inc. is the global leader in the development and commercialization of innovative device-based solutions in permanent birth control. The Company manufactures and markets the Essure Permanent Birth Control System.

Improved self-sufficiency isn't something we can achieve quickly and cross off a list. Rather, it's a meandering path of lessons and learning skills.
100 Items to Disappear First
Have you seen this list titled 100 Items to Disappear First? It's a collection of items that, in case of serious emergency, are likely to disappear first. Now, I don't know who created this list* or how accurate it is, but it's worth a look. If nothing else, just to make you think. I tend to […] Read More
I'm a Bloggies Finalist!
What a great way to start off February - I'm adding three more hens to my flock today and I just found out that I'm a finalist for the Bloggies in the Best New Weblog category. (Iwillnotsquee!Iwillnotsquee!Iwillnotsquee!) Such restraint I have, yes? I'd love it if you'd take a moment to vote. And really, it's […] Read More
Growing Carrots: A Tip from Grandpa
Carrots are not guaranteed a spot in my garden, but when space allows, I utilize a little of my Grandpa's wisdom. One thing that's crucial when starting carrots is that they have constant moisture as they sprout. Seed your row of carrots and water them in well. Place a 1" x 4" board over the […] Read More
On Sustainability
I mentioned to my 18-year-old the other day that I'd written about homemade oatmeal in a jar here on Attainable Sustainable. "That's not very sustainable," he said. "We can't grow oats here." He's right. My oat habit is not entirely sustainable. I can't grow oats myself. I can't get locally grown oats. But, while I […] Read More
Setting Goals for our Food Consumption
Since our move to this house almost a year ago, I'm still working to get a garden growing. Without the garden, I don't have my usual stash of preserved foods so it's quite a bit more difficult for me to produce a completely homegrown meal. We're working on it, but we're not there yet. Instead […] Read More
Are you Prepared for an Emergency?
With the devastating images coming out of Japan following the deadly earthquake and tsunami, it's a fair question. Would you be ready in case of such a disaster? Like many people living on the Ring of Fire, we found ourselves faced with the threat of a tsunami last night. We're on high ground here, so […] Read More
As more people become aware of the human impact on this earth (and ironically, on our own health) the idea of living a more sustainable, self-sufficient life is gaining ground. But. It's one thing to think, "Hey, I'd love to be more self-sufficient!" and quite another to implement a lifestyle change that might require learning […] Read More

OpenOffice.org ODF, Python and XML
My desktop distribution (SUSE 9.3) includes the packages python-doc-2.4-14 and python-doc-pdf-2.4-14. You also can get documentation from www.python.org. In either case, we want the Library Reference, which contains information on the Python XML libraries; they are described in the chapter on "Structured Markup Processing Tools" (currently Chapter 13).
Several modules are listed, and I noticed one labeled lightweight: xml.dom.minidom—Lightweight Document Object Model (DOM) implementation.
Lightweight sounded good to me. The library reference gives these examples:
from xml.dom.minidom import parse, parseString dom1 = parse('c:\\temp\\mydata.xml') # parse an XML file by name datasource = open('c:\\temp\\mydata.xml') dom2 = parse(datasource) # parse an open file
So, it looks like parse can take a filename or a file object.
Once we create a dom object, what can we do with it? One nice thing about Python is the interactive shell, which lets you try things out one at a time. Let's unpack the first example and look inside:
% mkdir TMP % unzip -q -d TMP ex1.odt % python Python 2.4 (#1, Mar 22 2005, 21:42:42) [GCC 3.3.5 20050117 (prerelease) (SUSE Linux)] on linux2 Type "help", "copyright", "credits" or "license" for more information. >>> import xml.dom.minidom >>> dom=xml.dom.minidom.parse("TMP/content.xml") >>> dir(dom) [ --- a VERY long list, including --- 'childNodes', 'firstChild', 'nodeName', 'nodeValue', ... ] >>> len(dom.childNodes) 1 >>> c1=dom.firstChild >>> len(c1.childNodes) 4 >>> for c2 in c1.childNodes: print c2.nodeName ... office:scripts office:font-face-decls office:automatic-styles office:body >>>
Notice how Python's dir function tells what fields (including methods) are in the object. The childNodes field looks interesting, and indeed, it appears that the document has a tree structure. After a little more manual exploration, I discovered that text is contained in the data field of certain nodes. So, I coded up a naive script, fix1-NAIVE.py:
#!/usr/bin/python -tt import xml.dom.minidom import sys DEBUG = 1 def dprint(what): if DEBUG == 0: return sys.stderr.write(what + '\n') def handle_xml_tree(aNode, depth): if aNode.hasChildNodes(): for kid in aNode.childNodes: handle_xml_tree(kid, depth+1) else: if 'data' in dir(aNode): dprint(("depth=%d: " + aNode.data) % depth) def doit(argv): doc = xml.dom.minidom.parse(argv[1]) handle_xml_tree(doc, 0) # sys.stdout.write(doc.toxml('utf-8')) if __name__ == "__main__": doit(sys.argv)
The dprint routine prints debugging information on stderr; later we'll set DEBUG=0, and it'll be silent. Okay, let's try that on the content.xml above:
% ./fix1-NAIVE.py TMP/content.xml depth=5: Turn all these depth=6: "straight" Traceback (most recent call last): File "./fix1-NAIVE.py", line 24, in ? doit(sys.argv) File "./fix1-NAIVE.py", line 20, in doit handle_xml_tree(doc, 0) File "./fix1-NAIVE.py", line 13, in handle_xml_tree handle_xml_tree(kid, depth+1) File "./fix1-NAIVE.py", line 13, in handle_xml_tree handle_xml_tree(kid, depth+1) File "./fix1-NAIVE.py", line 13, in handle_xml_tree handle_xml_tree(kid, depth+1) File "./fix1-NAIVE.py", line 13, in handle_xml_tree handle_xml_tree(kid, depth+1) File "./fix1-NAIVE.py", line 13, in handle_xml_tree handle_xml_tree(kid, depth+1) File "./fix1-NAIVE.py", line 16, in handle_xml_tree dprint(("depth=%d: " + aNode.data) % depth) File "./fix1-NAIVE.py", line 8, in dprint sys.stderr.write(what + '\n') UnicodeEncodeError: 'ascii' codec can't encode character u'\u201c' in position 22: ordinal not in range(128) %
What's that error about? When trying to print that string on stderr, we hit a non-ASCII character—probably one of those curly quotes. A quick Web search gave this possible solution:
sys.stderr.write(what.encode('ascii', 'replace') + '\n')
It says that if a non-ASCII Unicode character appears, replace it with something in ASCII—an equivalent, or at least something printable.
Replacing line 8 with that yields this output:
% ./fix1.py TMP/content.xml depth=5: Turn all these depth=6: "straight" depth=5: quotes into ?nice? quotes %
So the curly quotes were replaced with ? characters, which is fine for our debugging output. Note that the text doesn't necessarily all come at the same depth in the tree.
The document's structure also can be seen by typing the full filename of the content.xml file into a Firefox window (Figure 7). That's good for displaying the data; the point, however, is to change it!
As Linux continues to play an ever increasing role in corporate data centers and institutions, ensuring the integrity and protection of these systems must be a priority. With 60% of the world's websites and an increasing share of organization's mission-critical workloads running on Linux, failing to stop malware and other advanced threats on Linux can increasingly impact an organization's reputation and bottom line.

Most companies incorporate backup procedures for critical data, which can be restored quickly if a loss occurs. However, fewer companies are prepared for catastrophic system failures, in which they lose all data, the entire operating system, applications, settings, patches and more, reducing their system(s) to "bare metal." After all, before data can be restored to a system, there must be a system to restore it to.
In this one hour webinar, learn how to enhance your existing backup strategies for better disaster recovery preparedness using Storix System Backup Administrator (SBAdmin), a highly flexible bare-metal recovery solution for UNIX and Linux systems.

I usually detest all Chanel fragrances found at counters in small department stores of the South. This is an exception. It's a clean blend of citrus, light fragrance and cedar. The words clear and crisp come to mind. This would be a work fragrance for me--very professional and not romantic floral. I like florals such as YSL Paris, Diptyque Rose, J'adore, and YSL Premieres Roses. This is a nice change for me. In fact, I told the sales associate that I liked Diptyque fragrances. She used to work for Diptyque and thought eau fraiche reminded her of Diptyque fragrances.
This is going to sound crazy but here goes! My Grandmother wore YSL Opium and it smelled absolutely divine on her. It never smelled like that on me. Perhaps it was her body chemistry. She was blonde, blue eyed and had cool, fair skin. I have black hair, brown eyes and oily olive skin. The complete opposite, in other words. I have searched and searched for years to try to get the same smell on my skin from various other brands but have failed to recreate the gorgeous smell that my Grandmother's body chemistry gave to Opium........until now. Much to my surprise, Chance Eau Fraiche's base notes come together with my oily olive skin and produce a smell that is as close to the elusive Opium base notes on my beloved Grandmother. What a strange situation. There was nothing about this fragrance that would scream out to me that it would do any such thing. It is a fresh Spring/Summer fragrance with juicy fruits and florals. But the base notes,,,,,,, oh my goodness. Opium on my skin is G*d awful. It makes me smell like I have been standing too close to a Priest whilst he was swinging the incense thurible during Mass. Nothing wrong with incense but it just didn't suit my chemistry. It smelled harsh and almost medicinal. So glad I found this fragrance. Brings back happy memories.
UPDATE: My coat had Chanel's Coco Eau de Parfum on the cuff of my coat sleeves and Coco layered with Chance Eau Fraiche is what was giving me the 'Opium' like fragrance. Happy accident!

This is Lauren Conrad's signature scent, per June 2014 Glamour magazine, page 66. She says, "I wear Chanel Chance Eau Fraiche EDT. It's clean, fresh, and floral but not too musky or citrusy".
Notes, per parfumo.net are:
Top Notes: Cedar, Citruses
Heart Notes: Jasmine, Pink pepper, Water hyacinth
Base Notes: Amber, Iris, Musk, Patchouli, Teakwood, Vetiver
I bought a 3.4oz EDT when it first launched in 2007, and I wore it constantly -- until something else caught my interest. I still have half my bottle left. Since its citrus notes and crispness are perfect in warm weather, I've just pulled it out into rotation.
The head cashier at my grocery store wears this (year-round), and she always smells fresh & great -- with that classy vibe that Chanel scents always have.
It's a fresh, clean, zingy citrusy floral -- with a bit of a sharp bite from the pink pepper and patchouli. Works well in warm weather.

This is my go-to spring and summer scent. Good staying powder and pretty bottle. Almost masculine when you first apply - settles into something mildly spicy with lots of aquatics and citrus there. Fresh but not overpowering, and some warmth to keep it grounded.
I also use this all the time in work settings - it isn't overpowering - just smells great.
I love this - will always keep some on my dresser. :)

i only wear perfumes from chanel and this one is my go-to fragrance for summer. i love it!
I was looking for a new fragrance a few years ago and tried this at the Chanel counter. I generally prefer classic fragrances....Shalimar, Chanel No 5, Chamade. Those I find too heavy now and tend to save for evenings.
For a daytime/casual fragrance Chance Eau Fraiche is right on target. It is light, clean, fresh, invigorating to me. It is not an in your face "citrusy" fragrance but there is a beautiful blend of fresh citrus, wood (cedar is a top note) with some floral(hyacinth and jasmine), vetivier and patchouli.
I also use the shower gel and it is lovely. This fragrance is just perfect for me as I abhor the current fad for sugary sweet fruity or floral fragrances. This is a grown up fragrance.
It doesn't have super staying power but I don't mind as I am not fond of fragrance being overpowering.

Perfume is such a personal thing and for me this is my favorite. I love clean, light & crisp smells and this is perfect. I wanted a grown up fragrance with those characteristics and I feel it has it. I have Chanel Chance and I can't detect the similarities. The Chance is warmer and something I'd only wear in the winter. The Eau Fraiche just makes me happy and has become my everyday fragrance. Love!!

Bought this about a year ago. Love that this almost smells unisex to me..but I feel very feminine wearing it. Even though this is totally different from Light Blue, to me they are both clean, fresh & slightly masculine scents. I prefer this SO MUCH MORE. Better staying power too! I Love it & feel it can be worn anytime or anywhere. If you are thinking of buying and are hesitant - get it!

You change your life by changing your heart.Unknown
Life without idealism is empty indeed. We just hope or starve to death.Pearl S. Buck
If you lose hope, somehow you lose the vitality that keeps life moving, you lose that courage to be, that quality that helps you go on in spite of it all. And so today I still have a dream.Martin Luther King, jr.
The follies which a man regrets most in his life, are those which he didn't commit when he had the opportunity.Helen Rowland
When you have a sense of your own identity and a vision of where you want to go in your life, you then have the basis for reaching out to the world and going after your dreams for a better life.Stedman Graham
Life is the movie you see through your own eyes.Denis Waitley
I will find humor in my everyday life by looking for people I can laugh atUnknown
This life is not for complaint, but for satisfaction.Henry David Thoreau
For what avail the plough or sail, or land or life, if freedom fail?Ralph Waldo Emerson
I wish that every human life might be pure transparent freedom.Simone de Beauvoir
Time is the coin of your life. It is the only coin you have, and only you can determine how it will be spent. Be careful lest you let other people spend it for you.Carl Sandberg
Clocks slay time... time is dead as long as it is being clicked off by little wheels; only when the clock stops does time come to life.William Faulkner
The same stream of life that runs through my veins night and day runs through the world and dances in rhythmic measures. It is the same life that shoots in joy through the dust of the earth in numberless blades of grass and breaks into tumultuous waves of leaves and flowers. It is the same life that is rocked in the ocean-cradle of birth and of death, in ebb and in flow. I feel my limbs are made glorious by the touch of this world of life. And my pride is from the life-throb of ages dancing in my blood this moment.Rabindranath Tagore
An authentic life is the most personal form of worship. Everyday life has become my prayer.Sarah Ban Breathnach
In three words I can sum up everything I've learned about life. It goes on.Robert Frost
God asks no man whether he will accept life. That is not the choice. You must take it. The only question is how.Henry Ward Beecher
The tragedy of life is not that man loses, but that he almost wins.Heywood Broun
We tear life out of life to use it for looking at itself.Antonio Porchia
The tragedy of life is not so much what men suffer, but rather what they miss.Thomas Carlyle
Life is a mixed blessing, which we vainly try to unmix.Mignon McLaughlin
Life is a compromise of what your ego wants to do, what experience tells you to do, and what your nerves let you do.Bruce Crampton
Life is not so bad if you have plenty of luck, a good physique, and not too much imagination.Christopher Isherwood

Would you be happy to have an openly lesbian, gay, or bisexual manager at work? Do you think someone who is homosexual can change their sexual orientation if they choose to do so? Do you believe it should be illegal to discriminate in hiring based on someone's sexual orientation?
Survey questions like these help researchers measure the public level of acceptance of homosexuality and, importantly, have been used to argue that acceptance of homosexuality has increased rapidly as more and more jurisdictions adopt laws that give LGBT people the same rights and freedoms as heterosexuals.
What if, however, what appears to be an increasing acceptability of homosexuality is really an unwillingness of survey participants to admit to holding beliefs that are increasingly socially unacceptable?
It's an interesting question and, thanks to new research at the NBER this week, we have a better understanding of how just how dishonest surveys participants can be when asked to reveal beliefs that are inconsistent with social norms – even when it is impossible to link the results of those surveys with the participants.

I am so close to buying my first real mountain bike. Seems every time I look at a bike something new pos up to consider. I have picked out the Specialized Jett for its light weight, disc brakes and 29er....but am struggling with the front suspension....go coil or air? I am a heavy rider and heard the air shocks may not be able to be dialed in for someone over 180lb. I don't anticipate going on extreme overly aggressive trails but figure washboard roads are very likely. So will the coil shocks be the best for me?

Unlike most of the summer movies, which seem to be thundering into theaters without any real anticipation beyond the cacophonous marketing hype, "The Hangover Part II" seems to be a film people are unreasonably excited for. The 2009 original, directed by Todd Phillips, has metamorphosed from simply being the biggest R-rated comedy of all time (and winner of a Best Motion Picture – Musical or Comedy Golden Globe) to being a movie that average filmgoers consider an instant "classic" of the genre and a staple of any fun-lover's DVD collection. (It's also the biggest selling comedy DVD of all time. Jesus.) The prospect of another movie, again sta...Read More »

A loose adaptation of the children's book classic, with "Mean Girls" director Mark Waters at the helm, the teaser didn't exactly look hugely promising, and if anything the full length version is worse, showing Carrey sleepwalking through the exact same dad-who-neglects-his-kids-because-he-works-too-hard beats as he was fifteen years ago in "Liar Liar."

Funny story about youth baseball in New England
Heh, I was in Lowell this weekend, and this was a nice topic of conversation. It's true, some kids really hate having to be on the Yankees, and this is a very creative way of fixing that. I love the Spinners organization.
That's a great idea. I hope the big club will help 'em out a bit with some mention on air during this upcoming season.
My nephew went on one of them 'play dates' a couple of years ago and came back spouting some nonsense like 'go Yankees' or some other ridiculous babble. Me and his other uncle corrected him. Unfortunately the boy prefers Soccer, we haven't had as much luck overcoming that particular birth defect
His parents aren't cousins, are they?
Certainly not, he just doesn't like all the standing around involved in Baseball.
That's what the beer is for ..... :eat3:

One of the great debates ringing throughout the country has come to the Arizona Legislature: Should motorists put down their cell phones and just drive?
A pair of Democratic lawmakers recently introduced two bills that would force motorists to do just that.
One bill specifically targets teenagers, outlawing cell phone use by drivers 18 years old and younger.
The other would prohibit all drivers, regardless of age, from using cell phones as well as other types of electronic equipment such as hand-held computers.
But with Republicans controlling the Legislature, the two Democrats could be the ones saying: Can you hear me now?
"Look, I'm a Democrat from Tucson. That's two strikes against me," said Rep. Tom Prezelski, D-Tucson, who sponsored HB2099, which would fine any driver who violates the law $50 to $200.
In the past the GOP-controlled Legislature has killed several bills calling for limitations on cell phone use.
Prezelski admits his prospects are not much better this year. He said he'd be shocked if Republicans allowed the bill to be heard in a committee — which is required before it goes to a vote in the Legislature.
Republican leaders also acknowledged that chances of the bills getting very far in the Legislature are slim.
Still, Prezelski said he will continue calling for changes in Arizona driving laws because something needs to be done to lower the number of statewide traffic crashes.
"The state Legislature has never taken traffic safety seriously," he said.
Likewise, Rep. Martha Garcia, DPhoenix, said restricting teen drivers from using cell phones would reduce the number of fatal crashes in the state.
Personal experience along with a report just released by AAA calling for tighter restrictions on teen driver's licenses prompted her to craft HB2300.
Garcia said her teenage granddaughter was in a crash last year because she was text messaging a friend at the time. Her granddaughter wasn't seriously injured, but the incident convinced Garcia to take action.
"That really made me start to think about doing something," she said.
Adults may think it's a good idea to curb teen cell phone use while young drivers are behind the wheel, but teenagers at an East Valley high school aren't so sure.
"I think it's dumb," said Neil Hunter, a 19-year-old senior at Mesquite High School in Gilbert. "Kids, if they are using cell phones or not, they are going to get in wrecks. I don't think cell phones are going to change that."
However, Laumanu Manu, a 14-yearold Mesquite sophomore, said limiting cell phone use could help teens focus more on driving. "(It's) a good idea because people could hit something because they are too into their conversation," she said.
Rep. Andy Biggs, R-Gilbert, said it's unlikely the bills will ever see the inside of a hearing room. He doesn't think it's necessary to single out cell phones when drivers do a lot of other things in the car that are distracting.
The proposed legislation has been assigned to Biggs' Transportation Committee, which means he can decide whether they will be heard.
"If (Prezelski's) bill isn't much different from previous years, I wouldn't be inclined to hear it," he said Thursday while driving his car and talking on a cell phone.
However, he said he would look more closely at Garcia's proposal.
The bills have been assigned to three other committees, which lawmakers said is also a sign political death is imminent.
But politics and opinions aside, law enforcement officials say enforcing a cell phone ban would be nearly impossible.
Officer Harold Sanders, a spokesman for Arizona Department of Public Safety, said police don't need the Legislature to step in. He said officers already have the authority to stop a motorist who is driving erratically or recklessly — whether caused by cell phones or not.
Besides cell phones, officers say they often see drivers distracted — by eating, putting on make-up or even watching television now that many vehicles come with video players.
The answer is not new legislation, said Susan Bitter Smith who represents the Arizona Competitive Telephone Coalition, whose members include some of the largest cell phone providers in the country. "I don't think it's appropriate to legislate this," she said Thursday. "You can't legislate good behavior."

He may not have any warm feelings for his hometown,but meeting Matilda just as she discovers she's been scammed by her online "fiancé" stirs something in him.

The petite bride stood stock-still, her chapel-length beaded train sagging in the damp gutter while her white fingers clutched a two-tiered wedding cake. She stared long and hard into a vacant store window.
It wasnt a usual fall sight in Hobin, Wisconsin. Brides tended to marry in spring. Even then, Hobin was hardly the bride capital of the state or the United States. Hawaii took that prize with its tropical sandy beaches and swaying palm trees, surprisingly acing Hobins snowbound winters and late-spring flowerings.
Still, in the last one hundred and fifty years, many a local bride had stood in the old log church but none that Marc Olsen could remember had stood alone on an almost deserted Main Street, late on a Sunday afternoon. But then again apart from his annual Thanksgiving visit, hed been gone from Hobin a long time and things might have changed.
He glanced up and down the familiar wide empty road with the same shop fronts that hed known as a kid. Nope, nothing had changed. The realization both annoyed and soothed him. He took a second look, this time casting his gaze around trying to locate the groom. A stray bridesmaid or ring bearer. Anyone?
No one.
He was used to odditieshed shed his small-town boyhood years ago, moving to New York City where a bride alone on a street wouldnt even make a ripple in the bustling Broadway crowd. But in Hobin it was more than odd. The bride wasnt moving. Perhaps it was performance art. In Hobin? Nah.
Completely intrigued, he gave his curiosity free rein. It was all about curiosity and had absolutely nothing to do with the fact that investigating the lone bride would further delay his cross-six-state journey and postpone his arrival at his sisters house. He knew that once he stepped over Loris front stoop, the snare of family would clamp on to him like the grip of a Denver boot, which was why for the last twelve years hed always arrived with a set departure date.
He crossed the street in a few brisk strides, with the chill of the air easily penetrating his light cotton shirt. He regretted not grabbing his cashmere sweater from his Porsche.
The bride had her back to him and as he got closer he realized the wedding dress hadnt come off the rack, but nor was it a Vera Wang creation. The faint sepia color hinted that many years had passed since it had first elegantly draped itself over a bride. Now the dress hung from sharp and narrow shoulders which seemed undecided about their posture, hovering between rigid and rolled back, and decidedly slumped.
On hearing his footsteps, she swung around, the unusual cake with its delicate lace icing wobbling precariously on its sugar pillars.
He grinned, deciding she was a cross between the bride in The Rocky Horror Picture Show and Miss Havisham. The round neckline of the dress sat flat and puckered as if seeking breasts to give it the form it deserved and a strand of uneven-sized pearls graced a slender neck which moved into a pointed chin. Stray wisps of wayward auburn hair stuck to hollow cheeks, and a smattering of freckles trailed across a snub nose that some might at a pinch call cute. Black smudges hovered at the top of her cheeks but it was hard to tell if they were caused by fatigue or the remnants of day-old mascara.
Hed never seen a more homely bride in need of a makeover. This was definitely performance art. It seemed a shame that shed gone to all this trouble on the one day of the week country people spent at home with their families.
"You seem to have lost the chapel." He extended his arm indicating the direction. "Its another mile down the road."

The RosebyGoldeniangel©
Petals pink unfolding
to reveal the inner sanctum
of dewy drops
and sweet perfume
that tantalizes
a budding rose of promise
whose delicate folds
empower the earth.
A ripe plum invades
presses forward on a pole
the petals are not bruised
they do not tear
instead they spread apart
like a willow in the wind
opening for the invasion.
Women bend
they do not break
beneath the steady onslaught
of moving hips
and grunting passion
they rise to meet the challenge
until, like two hawks
she and her partner
lease the jesses
and find glorious flight.

I received this photo taken by someone visiting a McDonald's in China this week.
Noting quite like a uniformed member of the People's Liberation Army selling french fries. You can't beat the revolutionaries locked arm in arm marching under the red banner of the Golden Arches.
I wanna trade-in my Little Red Book for a Happy Meal.
Surreal. Simply surreal. And, here, we have leftist nutjobs posting their doings on Facebook with their I-phone while protesting Wal-Mart and trying to disrupt commerce. If they were protesting slave-made Chinese products and the evils of communism, that'd be one thing. Instead, they're trying to destroy capitalism, that which makes it possible for them to envy the wealth they at least indirectly enjoy.
It's "kitch". People don't seriously think that it's revolution-inspired… only Americans might, because they don't realize communism completely disintegrated under Deng Xiaoping. It's a great thing that people can make fun of something like that and not undergo criticism for it.
Typo Nazi… it's spelled kitsch.
"The second time as farce."

Analysis: Recent California newspaper editorials
No wonder the authority, a multi-jurisdictional Inland agency that has no say in airport operations, wants to gain control of the struggling facility. Fewer flights to fewer destinations drives up the expense of flying from Ontario and forces Inland residents to make the inconvenient trek into Los Angeles. But that pattern settles Ontario's operating costs on ever fewer passengers and airlines, making travel from the troubled airport even more expensive.
That downward slide is not inevitable, given management committed to improving the airport's performance. But Los Angeles World Airports, which owns and operates the Ontario facility, has focused instead on boosting traffic at Los Angeles International, which it also owns. The agency has openly worried that increasing flights from Ontario could harm LAX - which shows the conflict of interest in Los Angeles' operation of the Ontario airport.
And Los Angeles has done little to address the main factor in Ontario's decline: the high cost of operating from Ontario International. Airlines' cost to use Ontario - $12.28 per passenger in 2011 - is higher than any other Southern California airport including LAX. Ontario airport's employee and contract costs are higher than those of its peers, and the airport is overstaffed for its size. Trimming those expenses would make Ontario far more attractive to airlines. But Los Angeles airport officials have not even managed to cut Ontario operating costs enough to keep pace with the traffic decline, so the price of using the airport continues to escalate.
Los Angeles airport officials blame Ontario's poor performance on the Inland region's weak economy and changing business models in the airline industry. But other Southern California airports are prospering, and many Inland residents have to drive elsewhere to find flights. And airport officials should be adapting operations to changes in the airline industry, instead of persisting with a flawed business model.
Ontario International's future depends on management solely focused on the facility's success. Instead the airport's overseers offer half-hearted gestures in place of real change. That approach is not enough: The time has come for Los Angeles World Airports to turn control of the airport over to people who have no reservations about helping it prosper.

The Orange County Register: "Drone rules hover over the horizon"
Ventura County Sheriff Geoff Dean appeared Tuesday before the Assembly Committee on Public Safety, which held an oversight hearing on domestic use and implications of unmanned aircraft systems, more commonly known as "drones."
The hearing came against the backdrop of debate in the state Capitol on the appropriate uses of drones, and as lawmakers consider two separate pieces of legislation, Assembly Bill 1327 and Senate Bill 15, that would establish guidelines for drone use.
He also lamented that much of the public debate about drone use is disproportionately concentrated on law enforcement, which, he claimed, accounts for "1 percent of use, but 99 percent of attention."
While we are not sure about the sheriff's 1 percent figure, he makes a legitimate point: There are, potentially, far more commercial uses for UAS than law-enforcement uses.

For $4 a night, you're not going to get a better deal. Very friendly family. If you enjoy authenticity and culture, spend hours talking to the owner and his family. They'll give you real insights into the city of Varanasi and the people of India.
Sant Jordi AlbergBarcelona, Spain
Great staff! Very helpful.
Amber Tree Lodge BackpackersCape Town, South Africa
It's very rare that I give a hostel 100%. This place deserves it. Wayne, the manager, was absolutely fantastic. He gives very good recommendations and directions. The hostel location is solid and the atmosphere is very positive. Has good internet and good food in the surrounding area. Try Knead for a nice thin-crust wood fired pizza. Beds were comfortable and showers were clean. All in all, a great hostel.
Jollyboys BackpackersLivingstone, Zambia
The staff are so incredibly bad at their jobs it's amazing. Having now stayed at nearly 30 hostels around the world, I can unquestionably say that this is the worst experience dealing with hostel personnel I have ever encountered. Do NOT stay here if you want to keep your sanity.
Bobs BunkhouseJohannesburg, South Africa
This is a little hostel owned by Bob and Joan. They are both very helpful and the hostel has a very homey atmosphere.
Promised Land LodgeZanzibar, Tanzania
Great place to stay if you want to absolutely relax and get away. Shebbi, Anu, etc. were all very kind. Everything I asked for, they did all they could to help me out with. The food was excellent and I got to go out and hunt for Octopus for free. They also offer free guided trips to town and the local caves. Most importantly, while you're at this hostel, none of the annoying touts that pervade the rest of Zanzibar will bother you. You will be in complete serenity with the other guests.
BaseCamp International Center TanzaniaArusha, Tanzania
Staff was really helpful in securing a taxi in the morning. People were chilled out. Great place, probably the best in Arusha.
Jacaranda B&BMoshi, Tanzania
Pretty good hostel. A wee bit expensive is all.

Best hostel out there. Staff like Patrick make it amazing.
Lazy HouseKoh Phangan, Thailand
Lub d Bangkok Siam SquareBangkok, Thailand
I don't think I've ever given a hostel 100% before, but this one gets it. Can't really complain about anything besides Bangkok's ridiculous heat and humidity. Talk to the staff, they're awesome.
Home at The MansionMelbourne, Australia
The blonde girl from California who works at the front desk is one of the most helpful people I've ever met in terms of hostel staff. A+. Great showers, generally good character/atmosphere. Very clean, nice facilities. Drinking games were played downstairs at this hostel and the hostel has a playstation or some sort of video game system w/ FIFA. That's just win. Only complaints were the 10 am check-out time and the very poor security for holding your luggage.
Alfred Park Budget AccommodationSydney, Australia
This hostel was really budget. As in only stay here if you're really in a pinch or need to catch up on a few hours of sleep before your next flight. I cut this hostel some slack as far as location: you'll probably struggle to find a better located place for this price. Clealiness and facilities are absolutely horrible. Character/Atmosphere seemed ok, but no one really said hi to me my entire time there, which is abnormal for hostels.

Gshaw that is my point, i wouldn't dare say jump on the bandwagon of something new, because it's new.
Technology is becoming more mobile i dont think anyone could argue with that? A device like this is, i believe, a step forward. Is it the answer, no i dont think so. But to right it off before it's even released is a little backwards.
Who isn't to say that this device leads onto another which everyone suddenly thinks is the answer. Reading through articles with the increasing amount of large international companies moving to Cloud, SaaS or PaaS, surely we in education cannot ignore this on the basis of "this is how it's been for 10 years"? Yes it's new tech and isn't mature but that doesn't mean it's not the future. We will need new devices to make the most of this change, something like the Chromebooks are a step towards it.
I was going to answer LiamH post but Cybernerd beat me to it. We use Google Eduction and have no problems keeping an eye on the students, or staff.
