Well, three close losses aside, my weekend visit to Minneapolis was certainly
enlightening. I had heard that the
Twins' new home, Target Field, was baseball's newest gem. Yet, walking into the first-year venue was
beyond my wildest expectations. Of the
new generation of Major League ballparks, this may the best designed and best
feeling one of all–even outdistancing such jewels as the new Yankee and Busch
stadiums, as well as the Giants' AT&T Park and Pittsburgh's PNC Park. Some of the more distinctive features at
Target Field are:
- Limestone facing both inside and outside the park, going against
the recent trend by adding a non-brick
- Similar to the renovated Dodgers Stadium, the lower box seat area
is separated by a "moat" of sorts, which allows patrons to socialize going
to and from their seats.
- A gigantic replica of the original Twin Cities logo featuring two
players, one representing Minneapolis and
the other St. Paul,
shaking hands in dead center field above the batter's eye.
- Beyond the left field seating sets perhaps the largest and sharpest
video board on this or any other planet.
If Ron Gardenhire is talking with his pitcher on the mound, he
better hope there aren't lip readers in the stands.
- Resembling some of the soccer stadiums I've seen abroad, the upper
awning overhang above the top tier seating features a built in bank of
lighting–very cool and futurist looking.
- An abundance of affordable outfield seating, including a three-deck
layout in left field with towering heights that harkens back to the old
Metropolitan Stadium where Killebrew, Carew and Oliva once roamed.
- Unlike the New Yankee Stadium–impressive in its own right–Target
Field is wide open behind the right field bleachers. You can see 6th Street and part of
downtown Minneapolis.
Yet, beyond the great features, Target Field
represents much more than a pristine place to play baseball. It's a crowning achievement for a small
market franchise that for many years has had its ingenuity tested in its
efforts to stay playoff caliber. (Sound
familiar?). I spoke with the Twins'
long-time broadcaster Dick Bremer. You could
just see his excitement and emotion when he spoke. "I'm from here. Grew up here.
Went to high school here. To see
what this has done for my city and area is amazing."
A day like yesterday–74 degrees, blue skies with
little humidity–is when these locals really enjoy not being entrapped under a
stifling roof. Not to mention dealing with
that ridiculous Metrodome "baggie" outfield fence. Yet, I think the most poignant scene I
witnessed last weekend was simply watching Joe Mauer stroll to the plate. He's
the franchise player, truly a player for the ages, and he's locked up with a
long-term contract that ensures that young fans will grow up watching their
favorite hero–and cornerstone of the franchise–play games in a Twins uniform at
Target Field for many years to come. I
couldn't help but feel a little green with envy, wondering when the time will
come when our Oakland
A's fans can experience the same thrill.
With Target Field now christened and the Marlins' new yard opening soon,
only Oakland and Tampa Bay
remain among the 32 MLB clubs still seeking a new home. You would think the odds are starting to tilt
in our favor that a permanent–and logical–solution will be forthcoming in the
near future. We can only hope.

My son did SO WELL once he decided he wasn't wearing Pull Ups anymore at night. He just did it - no muss no fuss.
Lately though he has begun to pee in his bed at least once a week. He seems way "too comfortable" with it, realizing he's done it but not waking us to change his bedding. We find out in the morning when it's partially dried but all of his bedding and stuffies stink like urine. What is going on here?
Like the other post asked if there is changes going on in your life that could be a problem or he could be drinking liquids too close to bedtime, UTI could also be an issue, also some children espeically boys have problems with bed wetting till they are about 8 years old. what I would do is make sure he doesn't drink a couple hours before bedtime and maybe wake him up in the middle of the night to go to the bathroom.
My son has exactly the same...he will turn 5 in October.
He is potty trained since he is 2,5 and also during the night since he was 3. When he started school...then it started happening....not only in bed but even at school...
And like yours, he doesnt mind being wet....he doesnt wake up and if at school nobody notice ( dark jeans etc) he doesnt say a thing...
We asked a sort of parenting coach we have here...and she said it is normal....and advised us to put him to pee around 22h and have fixed " pee time" ...mainly just after eating/drinking....before bedtime...and when he wakes up;..but not too often so the bladder had to be " trained to wait till it is really full " and also at 22h really wake him up so he doesnt pee while sleeping...again about the bladder not giving the brain the signal that is OK to pee while sleeping...
Another tool was rewarding...we have a sticker board and if he completes a row ( like 7 stickers) he gets a reward...which can be from deciding which veggie he wants to eat for dinner...or watching a DVD ....till small gifts...
It does work....takes time...it will not solve in few weeks...
I also noticed that my son goes back to this wetting the bed if he is upset at school or if we were a bit stronger with him...we know he is a very sensitive kid so I think it will take a bit longer.
His brother who is 3,5 was potty trainned at 3 and he was first dry at night and doesnt even need to do the 22h pee....but he is less sensitive as his brother ....2 totally different characters... so...I just let it go...keep the routine and praise him when he achieve his goal! and do not menting when he doesnt...we just say we will try again later.
Oh yeah...another tip from the coach was: if he wets his pants...he has to change himself...get a new underwear...new pants and put the wet ones on the laundry...that also helps sometimes...
Good luck! And no worries...you are not alone!
Have the doctor check his blood sugar levels to be on the safe side. When a child's blood sugar goes high the body tries to flush the sugar by making more urine. When my boy was 7 he began to wet the bed and was diagnosed (within weeks) with Type 1 insulin-dependent diabetes.
If his blood sugar levels are totally normal, then I would agree to wake him gently during the night (around 1 pm) to urinate, and then go back to sleep. To make sure that you wake up in order to get him up, drink lots of water before bedtime.

Do not pull loose ends, clip them with scissors to remove. Clean liquid spills immediately by blotting with cloth or sponge. For hard to remove stains, professional rug cleaning is recommended.
Good color (green is a bit more muted than seen on Internet screen), but rug apparently stored in bent position. So my 8x10 rug has some permanent creases which give it an old appearance already.
RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.Green color is more muted than seen online, but it actually was better for my room this way. Condition is so-so because rug obviously stored bent in half while in warehouse! So there are aged creases here and there, makes rug look cheap. Rug is slightly rough woven quality, two textured weave because of waves designs. While I can find what I like online, this is first and last experience buying online for rugs. Can not trust the quality of what arrives to my door.
RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.The green was a little tamer than it looks on the website but that was okay. Overall a great value.
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.color was more muted than shown on-line but that was to be expected
RECOMMENDED: Yes, I would recommend this to a friend.The color was named on the website as "Gray" but this rug is actually more of a lavender/purple. Not suitable for the boy's room we were looking to put it in.
RECOMMENDED: No, I would not recommend this to a friend.Fill out the information below.

Peter Large, executive director – governance at ACCA, says of the FRC's new arrangements: 'This is good news and bodes well for the future in terms providing a platform for effective and proportionate oversight of the accountancy profession. In addition, a strong, independent regulator is crucial when it comes to representing a UK voice on the global stage on audit, corporate governance and financial reporting issues.'
Responding to the original proposals in January 2012, ACCA said it was in favour of the streamlining of the FRC.
Peter Large adds: 'For some time, we have maintained the view that the seven-board structure of the FRC was far from ideal. The simplification and streamlining of responsibilities of the kind announced today will make for a more effective and focused regulator which, in turn, will help reinforce public confidence and trust in the activities of auditors and accountants.'
Peter Large concludes: 'A well-regulated, and above all, accountable accountancy profession, one that acts in the public interest to deliver real and tangible public value – which means promoting responsible and ethical business and supporting global economic performance – is essential for the future.'

July/August Review–What About You?
When you read articles in the Saponifier about your craft or your business, do you put what you've learned into practice or does it go into your "Maybe Someday" file?
I confess that some of that great information goes into that file until I'm ready to use it, but I try to make good use of each issue. For instance, some possess a fair amount of knowledge of herbs, while others are rank beginners. Calendula is the perfect herb for beginners, but still very useful for veterans, so Deb Sturdevant's article was either an informative primer or a helpful reminder. I still need to make the recipes she provided! Did you make them?
Whether you attended the HSCG conference or not, we hope you found, HSCG Conference in Review, to whet your appetite for future conferences if you're a soap or cosmetics maker to take your skills and business to a new level.
Speaking of business, I love reading each column of Marla Bosworth, for instance, and her most recent, Beyond Daily Duty Mode, is no exception. A business plan is key to starting a business, even if we know we'll be amending it along the way. In addition, Melinda Coss' warning in her article, Design to Profit, not to let our creativity run amuck in order that we might run our businesses profitably, was timely information, was it not? The balance between creativity and efficiency and consistency can be a tenuous one, but mastering the business side is as important as mastering the skill.
In, Design Your Soap, Sue Finley's advice on creating our soaps from product to packaging was a good reminder that simply making soap was not enough. In creating a product, we must create a brand, from conception to selling and everything in between. Indeed, the role of small business owner is not a simple one as it requires us to become expert and disciplined in each facet of our business.
Nevertheless, where would we be without exercising some creativity? That brings me to asking, how did you like those tutorials? How many are you trying? I can't wait to see your submissions! Just as a reminder, here's how the contest works:
Submit photos of your best soaps among the tutorials offered in the July/August issue. You may enter a total of two photos, but they must each be from a different category:
- Drop Swirl
- Tiger Stripe Technique
- Paint Chip Technique
- Peacock Swirl
- Squeeze Bottle Swirl
You may submit your photos by filling out the form on the website between August 26th and September 9th, 2013. We will then post your photos on the Saponifier website. Beginning September 16 and ending September 30, the public will vote on their favorite soap in each category. The winner from each technique will receive a prize!
Note that the form won't be up on the website until August 26th; so, until then, get soaping and clicking!
Until next time, may your days be filled with bubbles and wax,
Beth Byrne for the Saponifier

A decision to raise water allocations in part of drought stricken California from 0% to 5% has drawn objections from a citrus trade group that says it helps growers less than it seems to.
February and March storms allowed the increase in state water project deliveries south of the Sacramento-San Joaquin Delta, the California Department of Water Resources reported April 18. About 2 million more acre feet of water have come into storage.
"None of the water they're talking about is available to the East side of the San Joaquin Valley where the bulk of permanent crops are — stone fruits, vines and citrus," said Joel Nelsen, president of Exeter-based California Citrus Mutual.
About 50,000 acres of citrus would remain vulnerable, Nelsen said.
"Growers are making decisions about which blocks to keep alive," he said. "Now you're trying to set next year's orange crop. It doesn't make sense to incur that expense without water. So some are bulldozing trees; some are topping trees so they don't produce but stay alive. Some are hoping our efforts to get adequate water are successful."
NelsenThe trade group expects exchange contractors — senior rights holders who can trade one water source for another as availability varies — to claim Millerton Lake water that would otherwise flow to the Friant-Kern Canal. The canal supplies growers around Fresno, Orange Cove, Lindsay and Porterville.
Water rights of some California exchange contractors date back to the 1800s. They include producers of nuts, vegetables, melons, tomatoes and some stone fruit.
"They're presently guaranteed 40% of their right," Nelsen said. "If they don't get 100%, they have first call on the Friant. To reach 100%, they would take all of the water Friant now has."
California Citrus Mutual lobbying to get 300,000 of the 2 million acre feet released.
"Give 15% to the exchange contractors and let Friant keep the 200,000 it has in inventory," Nelsen said. "That would solve the problem."
Some of the state's 5% increase would go to municipal use or to fight saltwater intrusion — which Citrus Mutual supports. Disagreements with state and federal policymakers have centered around how much water is needed to protect the delta smelt.
"Most of our problem is with the National Marine Fisheries Service," Nelsen said. "But the state is not taking a strong enough approach. They should just say 'No; you are creating an economic, public health and food supply disaster in California and we're not going to allow it.'"
Several citrus growers, with operations ranging from 40 to 130 acres, joined Nelsen at an April 23 news conference in Visalia to comment on the latest turn in water policy.
He said he expected another announcement from state or federal authorities responding to the objections. But nothing was scheduled as of April 24.

God's judgments against the enemies of his church. (1-14) The happiness of his people. (15-24)
Verses 1-14 Here we have the proud and false destroyer justly reckoned with for all his fraud and violence. The righteous God often pays sinners in their own coin. Those who by faith humbly wait for God, shall find him gracious to them; as the day, so let the strength be. If God leaves us to ourselves any morning, we are undone; we must every morning commit ourselves to him, and go forth in his strength to do the work of the day. When God arises, his enemies are scattered. True wisdom and knowledge lead to strength of salvation, which renders us stedfast in the ways of God; and true piety is the only treasure which can never be plundered or spent. The distress Jerusalem was brought into, is described. God's time to appear for his people, is, when all other helpers fail. Let all who hear what God has done, acknowledge that he can do every thing. Sinners in Zion will have much to answer for, above other sinners. And those that rebel against the commands of the word, cannot take its comforts in time of need. His wrath will burn those everlastingly who make themselves fuel for it. It is a fire that shall never be quenched, nor ever go out of itself; it is the wrath of an ever-living God preying on the conscience of a never-dying soul.
Verses 15-24 The true believer watches against all occasions of sin. The Divine power will keep him safe, and his faith in that power will keep him easy. He shall want nothing needful for him. Every blessing of salvation is freely bestowed on all that ask with humble, believing prayer; and the believer is safe in time and for ever. Those that walk uprightly shall not only have bread given, and their water sure, but they shall, by faith, see the King of kings in his beauty, the beauty of holiness. The remembrance of the terror they were in, shall add to the pleasure of their deliverance. It is desirable to be quiet in our own houses, but much more so to be quiet in God's house; and in every age Christ will have a seed to serve him. Jerusalem had no large river running by it, but the presence and power of God make up all wants. We have all in God, all we need, or can desire. By faith we take Christ for our Prince and Saviour; he reigns over his redeemed people. All that refuse to have Him to reign over them, make shipwreck of their souls. Sickness is taken away in mercy, when the fruit of it is the taking away of sin. If iniquity be taken away, we have little reason to complain of outward affliction. This last verse leads our thoughts, not only to the most glorious state of the gospel church on earth, but to heaven, where no sickness or trouble can enter. He that blotteth out our transgressions, will heal our souls.
Isaiah 33:1-24 . THE LAST OF ISAIAH'S PROPHECIES AS TO SENNACHERIB'S OVERTHROW.
Isaiah 33:1 Isaiah 33:8 Isaiah 33:9 , describe the Assyrian spoiler; strong as he is, he shall fall before Jehovah who is stronger ( Isaiah 33:2-6 Isaiah 33:10-12 ). The time is the autumn of 713 B.C.
1. and thou--that is, though thou wast not spoiled--though thou wast not dealt treacherously with and treachery are therefore without excuse, being unprovoked.
cease--When God has let thee do thy worst, in execution of His plans, thine own turn shall come (compare Isaiah 10:12 , 14:2 , Habakkuk 2:8 , Revelation 13:10 ).
2. us; we . . . their . . . our--He speaks interceding for His people, separating himself in thought for a moment from them, and immediately returns to his natural identification with them in the word "our."
every morning--each day as it dawns, especially during our danger, as the parallel "time of trouble" shows.
3. the tumult--the approach of Jehovah is likened to an advancing thunderstorm ( Isaiah 29:6 , 30:27 ), which is His voice ( Revelation 1:15 ), causing the people to "flee."
nation--the Assyrian levies.
4. The invaders' "spoil" shall be left behind by them in their flight, and the Jews shall gather it.
caterpillar--rather, "the wingless locust"; as it gathers; the Hebrew word for "gathers" is properly used of the gathering of the fruits of harvest ( Isaiah 32:10 ).
running to and fro--namely, in gathering harvest fruits.
he--rather, "they."
them--rather, "it," that is, the prey.
6. wisdom--sacred; that is, piety.
thy--Hezekiah's; or rather, "Judea's." "His" refers to the same; such changes from the pronoun possessive of the second person to that of the third are common in Hebrew poetry.
treasure--Not so much material wealth as piety shall constitute the riches of the nation ( Proverbs 10:22 , 15:16 ).
7-9. From the vision of future glory Isaiah returns to the disastrous present; the grief of "the valiant ones" (parallel to, and identical with, "the ambassadors of peace"), men of rank, sent with presents to sue for peace, but standing "without" the enemy's camp, their suit being rejected ( 2 Kings 18:14 2 Kings 18:18 2 Kings 18:37 ). The highways deserted through fear, the cities insulted, the lands devastated.
cry--( Isaiah 15:4 ).
8. broken . . . covenant--When Sennacherib invaded Judea, Hezekiah paid him a large sum to leave the land; Sennacherib received the money and yet sent his army against Jerusalem ( 2 Kings 18:14 2 Kings 18:17 ).
despised--make slight of as unable to resist him ( Isaiah 10:9 , 36:19 ); easily captures them.
9. ( Isaiah 24:4 ).
Lebanon--personified; the allusion may be to the Assyrian cutting down its choice trees ( Isaiah 14:8 , 37:24 ).
Sharon--south of Carmel, along the Mediterranean, proverbial for fertility ( Isaiah 35:2 ).
Bashan--afterwards called Batanea ( Isaiah 2:13 ).
fruits--rather, understand "leaves"; they lie as desolate as in winter.
10. The sight of His people's misery arouses Jehovah; He has let the enemy go far enough.
I--emphatic; God Himself will do what man could not.
11. Ye--the enemy.
conceive chaff--( Isaiah 26:18 , 59:4 ).
your breath--rather, your own spirit of anger and ambition [MAURER], ( Isaiah 30:28 ).
12. ( Isaiah 9:19 , Amos 2:1 ). Perhaps alluding to their being about to be burnt on the funeral pyre ( Isaiah 30:33 ).
thorns--the wicked ( 2 Samuel 23:6 2 Samuel 23:7 ).
13. far off--distant nations.
near--the Jews and adjoining peoples ( Isaiah 49:1 ).
14. sinners in Zion--false professors of religion among the elect people ( Matthew 22:12 ).
hypocrites--rather, "the profane"; "the abandoned" [HORSLEY].
who, &c.--If Jehovah's wrath could thus consume such a host in one night, who could abide it, if continued for ever ( Mark 9:46-48 )? Fire is a common image for the divine judgments ( Isaiah 29:6 , 30:30 ).
among us--If such awful judgments have fallen on those who knew not the true God, how infinitely worse shall fall on us who, amid religious privileges and profession, sin against God, ( Luke 12:47 Luke 12:48 , 4:17 )?
15. In contrast to the trembling "sinners in Zion" ( Isaiah 33:14 ), the righteous shall be secure amid all judgments; they are described according to the Old Testament standpoint of righteousness ( Psalms 15:2 , 24:4 ).
stoppeth . . . ears . . . eyes--"Rejoiceth not in iniquity" ( 1 Corinthians 13:6 ; contrast Isaiah 29:20 , Psalms 10:3 , Romans 1:32 ). The senses are avenues for the entrance of sin ( Psalms 119:37 ).
16. on high--heights inaccessible to the foe ( Isaiah 26:1 ).
bread . . . waters--image from the expected siege by Sennacherib; however besieged by trials without, the godly shall have literal and spiritual food, as God sees good for them ( Isaiah 41:17 , Psalms 37:25 , 34:10 , 132:15 ).
17. Thine--the saints'.
king in . . . beauty--not as now, Hezekiah in sackcloth, oppressed by the enemy, but King Messiah ( Isaiah 32:1 ) "in His beauty" ( Song of Solomon 5:10 Song of Solomon 5:16 , Revelation 4:3 ).
land . . . very far off--rather, "the land in its remotest extent" (no longer pent up as Hezekiah was with the siege); see Margin. For Jerusalem is made the scene of the king's glory ( Isaiah 33:20 , &c.), and it could not be said to be "very far off," unless the far-off land be heaven, the Jerusalem above, which is to follow the earthly reign of Messiah at literal Jerusalem ( Isaiah 65:17-19 , Jeremiah 3:17 , Revelation 21:1 Revelation 21:2 Revelation 21:10 ).
18. meditate--on the "terror" caused by the enemy, but now past.
where, &c.--the language of the Jews exulting over their escape from danger.
scribe--who enrolled the army [MAURER]; or, who prescribed the tribute to be paid [ROSENMULLER]; or, who kept an account of the spoil. "The principal scribe of the host" ( 2 Kings 25:19 , Jeremiah 52:25 ). The Assyrian records are free from the exaggerations of Egyptian records. Two scribes are seen in every Assyrian bas-relief, writing down the various objects brought to them, the heads of the slain, prisoners, cattle, sheep, &c.
receiver--"weigher," Margin. LAYARD mentions, among the Assyrian inscriptions, "a pair a scales for weighing the spoils."
counted . . . towers--he whose duty it was to reconnoitre and report the strength of the city to be besieged.
19. fierce people--The Assyrians shall not be allowed to enter Jerusalem ( 2 Kings 19:32 ). Or, thou shalt not any longer see fierce enemies threatening thee as previously; such as the Assyrians, Romans, and the last Antichristian host that is yet to assail Jerusalem ( Deuteronomy 28:49 Deuteronomy 28:50 , Jeremiah 5:15 , Zechariah 14:2 ).
stammering--barbarous; so "deeper," &c., that is, unintelligible. The Assyrian tongue differed only in dialect from the Hebrew, but in the Assyrian levies were many of non-Semitic race and language, as the Medes, Elamites, &c.
20. solemnities--solemn assemblies at the great feasts
not . . . taken down . . . removed--image from captives "removed" from their land ( Isaiah 36:17 ). There shall be no more "taking away" to an enemy's land. Or else, from nomads living in shifting tents. The saints, who sojourned once in tabernacles as pilgrims, shall have a "building of God--eternal in the heavens" ( 2 Corinthians 5:1 , Hebrews 11:9 Hebrews 11:10 ; compare Isaiah 54:2 ).
stakes--driven into the ground; to these the "cords" were fastened. Christ's Church shall never fall ( Matthew 16:18 ). So individual believers ( Revelation 3:12 ).
21. there--namely, in Jerusalem.
will be . . . rivers--Jehovah will be as a broad river surrounding our city (compare Isaiah 19:6 , Nahum 3:8 ), and this, too, a river of such a kind as no ship of war can pass (compare Isaiah 26:1 ). Jerusalem had not the advantage of a river; Jehovah will be as one to it, affording all the advantages, without any of the disadvantages of one.
galley with oars--war vessels of a long shape, and propelled by oars; merchant vessels were broader and carried sail.
gallant--same Hebrew word as for "glorious," previously; "mighty" will suit both places; a ship of war is meant. No "mighty vessel" will dare to pass where the "mighty Lord" stands as our defense.
22. Lord--thrice repeated, as often: the Trinity ( Numbers 6:24-26 ).
judge . . . lawgiver . . . king--perfect ideal of the theocracy, to be realized under Messiah alone; the judicial, legislative, and administrative functions as king to be exercised by Him in person ( Isaiah 11:4 , 32:1 , 4:12 ).
23. tacklings--Continuing the allegory in Isaiah 33:21 , he compares the enemies' host to a war galley which is deprived of the tacklings or cords by which the mast is sustained and the sail is spread; and which therefore is sure to be wrecked on "the broad river" ( Isaiah 33:21 ), and become the prey of Israel.
they--the tacklings, "hold not firm the base of the mast."
then--when the Assyrian host shall have been discomfited. Hezekiah had given Sennacherib three hundred talents of silver, and thirty of gold ( 2 Kings 18:14-16 ), and had stripped the temple of its gold to give it to him; this treasure was probably part of the prey found in the foe's camp. After the invasion, Hezekiah had so much wealth that he made an improper display of it ( 2 Kings 20:13-15 ); this wealth, probably, was in part got from the Assyrian.
the lame--Even the most feeble shall spoil the Assyrian camp (compare Isaiah 35:6 , 2 Samuel 5:6 ).
24. sick--SMITH thinks the allusion is to the beginning of the pestilence by which the Assyrians were destroyed, and which, while sparing the righteous, affected some within the city ("sinners in Zion"); it may have been the sickness that visited Hezekiah ( Isaiah 38:1-22 ). In the Jerusalem to come there shall be no "sickness," because there will be no "iniquity," it being forgiven ( Psalms 103:3 ). The latter clause of the verse contains the cause of the former ( Mark 2:5-9 ).

[♪music♪] [Russell Preston Brown in...]
[The Russell Brown Show - Power Tips]
I've got a hunch that this next tip and technique
is something you've never seen before,
and of course, it's here inside of Adobe Photoshop CS4 Extended.
Now in this project, I'm going to create a tiled pattern
and apply it to an image.
Let's give it a try.
So here I have a blank document--it's just a simple blank, white document--
and I've selected a paintbrush here and I have a paintbrush set to a 100% Opacity
and I have it filled with green.
For this particular project, I want to create dots
and I want to create a pattern of dots.
Okay, now all I do is go up here to my 3D menu
and down here to New Tiled Painting, right here.
It will now of course turn this flat 2D document into a 3D document
that when I paint on it, it will create a pattern--check it out.
I'm going to paint right here on the image, just like that.
I'm going to create some dots.
And of course, it instantly creates all of the other dots to create this pattern.
I can go through again and start to create multiple dots across my image,
and it repeats the pattern just like that.
It's easy.
Okay, now how do I apply this?
I'm going to do a Select All-Command-A on the Macintosh
or Control-A on the PC,
then go up to my Edit menu and down here to Define Pattern, right here.
Let's name this Dots, just like that, and click OK.
Now I can apply this,
and of course, let's apply it to a dinosaur.
What could be better?
So of course, here inside of Photoshop CS4 Extended,
you can paint directly on 3D objects,
so let's give it a try.
I'm going select this tool--my Pattern Stamp tool right there--
and make sure that I'veselected my pattern here,
from the fly-out menu here in the Options bar.
And you'll also notice that I have my Mode set to Multiply
because I want to multiply this pattern onto the surface of the dinosaur
and not have the white show--just have the colored dots appear on the dinosaur.
Now let's give it a try.
I'm going to paint right on the dinosaur, and there are the dots.
The pattern of dots then appears here on my model,
and of course, all I have to do is select my 3D Rotate tool right here,
and since this is a 3D model, I can rotate this around
and continue to paint on the other side.
And of course, the pattern will of course tile perfectly
around the shape of my 3D object.
There you have it--the unusual, the crazy--you saw it here
on the Russell Brown show--Painting with Tiled Patterns.

This is delicious! My picky-eater cowboy ate it up!
Balsamic & Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower
From EatingWell: January/February 2008
Roasting isn't usually the first cooking method you think of for cauliflower but the results are quite delicious. The florets are cut into thick slices and tossed with extra-virgin olive oil and herbs. Wherever the flat surfaces come into contact with the hot roasting pan, a deep browning occurs that results in a sweet, nutty flavor.
107 Reviews for Balsamic & Parmesan Roasted Cauliflower
Loved this! The cheese, balsamic vinegar, and cauliflower combo is so tasty! A great dish.
In response to the below comment....oregano is the equivalent of marjoram.
is there another herb that tastes like marjoram that can be used in this recipie?
I have made this cauliflower recipe several times. It is my favorite recipe for that vegetable, making it so tasty. In fact, I have a cauliflower waiting and was just getting ready to look for the recipe. Thanks for making it easy!

What is sad is that normally hard reader is such a practical and pragmatic
guy...poor bastard only has one weakness .. he believes everything he reads
and things get his little swimmers in a turmoil. The Australian crawl or simple
back stroke won't do him. From the moment he dives in until the last splash
before it is time to speedo into the showers.
Sheep, pool your resources...don't throw in the towel. Save this lamb from
the ultimate slaughter and he drowns himself in...well, lets just leave it at
drowns himself.
(ok sheep, just 'member this was donnie the fish's idea)

Built for Skiers. The Atomic Skiwear Lookbook 14/15.
As the most decorated American downhill and Super G Skier, with twelve World Cup victories and three medals at World Championships, there is no question that Daron Rahlves is one hell of a skier.
After retiring from alpine, he turned his focus towards Big Mountain filming as well as skier cross, in which he claimed gold at the 2008 X Games. More recently he has championed Banzai racing, a gnarly group race circuit on ungroomed terrain. While he dominates the circuit he is still stacking insane Big Mountain segments with TGR.

1 3/4 cup bread crumbs is definitely too much. 1 cup would be plenty. With whole wheat breads crumbs maybe less, depending on the size of the egg. One time I used panko which I preferred. I also used grated zucchini and a little paprika which added nice substance and flavor.
I serve this with Fried Green Tomatoes :)

Junior Auxiliary is a national non-profit organization that encourages members to render charitable services, which are beneficial to the general public, with particular emphasis on children.
The Junior Auxiliary chapter of Cleveland has been in existence since 1946.
The chapter received six different awards.
The awards won were the Betty W. Robbins Endowed Scholarship Platinum Crown, the NAJA Foundation Membership Award for achieving 100 percent active participation in the NAJA foundation, the Efficiency Award, the Public Relations Finance Award for the 2013 Children's Benefit Ball, Martha Wise Existing Project Award for the production of "A Child's Dream," and the Award of Excellence for excellence in all areas of Junior Auxiliary work.
Jamie Jacks was nominated by the chapter for the Region III Volunteer of the Year award, which she received during the conference.
"It was such an honor to be nominated and I am thrilled.
Junior Auxiliary is a great organization," Jacks said.
The star of the conference was Wilma Wilbanks, a local pharmacist at Walgreens, who was honored with a National Award being named in her honor for her many years of service to NAJA.
"I've been speechless very few times in my life and I still am speechless. I'm just stunned," said Wilbanks.
Wilbanks has served the NAJA for over 30 years in different roles such as president and her current position, parliamentarian.
"I was extremely humbled by the honor. I never dreamed they would do anything like this, much less so much," said Wilbanks.
This annual convention was in Wilbanks' honor and throughout the weekend Wilbanks received many different surprises.
"I can't believe they all kept it a secret," said Wilbanks.
This was Wilbanks' 30th consecutive convention to attend and she was given many surprises throughout the weekend.
Wilbanks was presented with a scrapbook encompassing 20 years with the NAJA and a detailed painting, both created by former president and close friend, Vickie Pentecost.
At the announcement of the award in her honor, her family and friends, including former president and close friend, Norma Delong, attended.
Wilbanks said, "I owe all of my commitment to community service to my mother and daddy. They instilled these values in me.
"Not everyone has a role model like I did and I try to be an example for those people."


text: 5 For anyone who thinks they hate to cook!!!Posted: 18/09/2007I bought this book after watching a the TV programme, as I was hooked. I HATE cooking(it takes too long after a day at work) but love home produced food, as it's so much better for you. The book contains loads of quick, easy, inexpensive and exciting meals, desserts and drinks. I'm off to re-stock up the larder. This woman wrote the book for me, and those like me.

Are you anxious, irritable and stressed out? Maybe you aren't getting enough sleep. Not putting in enough hours of sleep each night can have a very negative affect on your mood and your body. You might think four to five hours is fine for you, but if you get the proper amount of sleep you could conquer mountains instead of hills. Try to work seven to eight hours a night into your schedule and you will see results. You will find that your energy level is higher and you accomplish more than if you only slept for five hours.
Some great tips for a restful night:
• Have a consistent bedtime. Train yourself to go to bed at a certain hour. After a while your body's clock will start working and know when it's time to shut down.
• Make your room into your safe haven, your little sanctuary. Do not allow cell phones, laptops, televisions or any other electronic devices into the bedroom. These are extremely distracting while trying to fall asleep. If you create a harmonious atmosphere, you will most likely have quicker results. Also, try to keep the kids and your pets off of the bed while sleeping. These little guys can disturb your sleeping cycle throughout the night.
• Turn out the lights! Lights have an extreme effect on people who cannot fall asleep. Some people drape a cloth over their alarm clock or any other glowing lights to eliminate any hint of light. This helps relax their eyes and drift into a heavenly night's rest.
• Cut back on the amount of caffeine you drink throughout the day. Better yet, try to cut out all caffeine from your daily routine. Once you haven't had caffeine for a few days you will feel more energized and you wont need that cup first thing in the morning. If you love coffee and cannot imagine breaking up with it then try to stop drinking caffeinated coffee in the afternoon. Caffeine can stay in the system for different durations depending on the individual. For some, it wears off quickly, but others feel the affects for many more hours. Caffeine will keep you rolling around in bed, wide awake, if you drink it too late in the day. Keep it safe and don't drink caffeine in the afternoon.
• Do not exercise at least four hours before going to bed. Exercise produces endorphins, which are neurotransmitters, a chemical that passes through the body to help block pain. It is also known to produce the feeling of pleasure and happiness. The endorphins produced from exercising cause the body to have more energy, resulting in the inability to go to bed.
• Stay far away from the refrigerator! Try not to eat anything three hours before going to bed. We cannot digest our food properly when in bed. Our bodies are at work breaking down the food, which might result in keeping you up all night. Also, if you stop eating after a certain hour, you might find you will lose some pounds. Americans are known to snack on junk food more in the evenings while watching TV or relaxing with the family.
• Try to minimize your stress level. I know, easier said than done. In my experience, I find going on a long walk, meditating or taking some time out of my schedule to spend with family is a great way to blow off some steam.
There are many sleeping disorders people unfortunately suffer from. A common disorder would be insomnia. This is when a person has trouble falling asleep or wakes up constantly throughout the night. Not only do they have problems falling asleep, but also they cannot stay asleep for long. A person with insomnia might wake up only a few hours after falling asleep. This causes the insomniac a constant feeling of fatigue.
A common cause of insomnia is stress at work or with your social life. Traumatic events can also result in insomnia. I would first recommend trying the tips listed above, and if those still don't work then acupuncture and Chinese medicine might be the answer for you. Jeanie Bussell and Caroline Jung, the acupuncturists at the Tiffani Kim Institute, have helped my body unwind, allowing me to have a better nights sleep.
Another disorder that is growing at an extreme rate is sleep apnea. This disorder not only interrupts your sleeping pattern, but it can be life threatening. People with sleep apnea briefly stop breathing between 5 seconds to 1 minute during one episode. This can wake the person throughout the night, resulting in unfulfilled REM cycles. The reason it is a growing disorder is because the key source of sleep apnea is being overweight. Many people sleep with a CPAP device, which is a breathing tube latched onto the person's face to help him/her breathe. Losing weight can solve the problem and save you from this sleeping disorder.
Now that we are on the subject of weight loss, I might add if you are not getting the sufficient amount of healthy daily nutrition you will definitely experience fatigue during the day. Stay away from refined sugars and processed food. These junk foods make your body work harder to break down this food. Work with your body and nourish it with healthy foods high in omega-3 fats, protein, vegetables and some yummy fruits. This will give you energy during the day and allow you to drift off to sleep faster than eating candy, chips and greasy foods. I say this in almost all my blog posts, but I need to re-emphasize how important it is to eat healthy and treat your body like temple and not a dump.
There are all different types of diseases that cause fatigue, which can be treated by going to your doctor and finding the right vitamins or prescription drugs to treat the problem. Hyperthyroidism, a disease of the thyroid gland, can be the cause of exhaustion. This is when too much or too little thyroid hormone is being produced for the body. The thyroid hormone controls how our body's cells use energy (metabolism). A person with hyperthyroidism experiences fatigue and restlessness if not prescribed medication to balance the thyroid.
Anemia is another disease that causes fatigue. This is common mainly in women because of menstrual blood loss, which results in iron deficiency. An easy way to fix this problem is to take iron supplements daily. If pills are not your thing then you should eat more iron-rich foods, such as lean meats, beans, mollusks and dark greens like spinach and collards.
Other disease or deficiencies that cause fatigue and restless nights are potassium deficiency, fibromyalgia, diabetes, depression, cancers or heart disease. It is always important to mention when visiting your doctor that you are experiencing exhaustion and the inability to sleep. Your doctor will be able to diagnose the cause of fatigue and provide helpful solutions to fixing the problem.

By Kevin Kovac, World of Outlaws Late Model Series P.R. Director
(Concord, NC) There will be plenty on the line when the inaugural World of Outlaws Late Model Series 'National Interstate Speedweek' rolls through Ohio and Indiana from July 25-28. For the WoO LMS travelers, the four races in consecutive nights will be their last extended swing of the summer and thus prove critical in the battle for the $100,000 tour points title. For drivers and teams hailing from Ohio, thousands of dollars in bonus cash will be on the line from the Richfield, Ohio-based National Interstate Insurance Company. For the top-10 drivers in the final National Interstate Speedweek points standings, a cool $6,000 points fund will be divided among them. And for the fans, National Interstate Insurance is offering a chance to win free tickets to see star-studded fields of dirt Late Models do battle on four of the country's top racetracks. "The first National Interstate Speedweek is shaping up to be one of the best stretches of racing on this year's World of Outlaws Late Model Series," said WoO LMS director Tim Christman. "With races at four super tracks and National Interstate Insurance providing a great incentive program for Ohio-based drivers and teams, we're expecting some intense competition between the Outlaws and dozens of regional standouts." National Interstate Speedweek will kick off on Wed., July 25, at Attica (Ohio) Raceway Park, then continue on Thurs., July 26, at Lawrenceburg (Ind.) Speedway; Fri., July 27, at Eldora Speedway in Rossburg, Ohio; and Sat., July 28, at Sharon Speedway in Hartford, Ohio. The WoO LMS will make a first-ever visit to all the tracks except Sharon, which has hosted the tour annually since 2004. An open tire rule will be in effect for the Attica and Sharon events, while Lawrenceburg and Eldora will use the UMP DIRTcar Racing Hoosier 20/40 tire rule. The opener at Attica is one of the most highly anticipated shows of National Interstate Speedweek. A one-third-mile, semi-banked clay oval well known for spectacular action, Attica will present the biggest dirt Late Model event in its 20-year history. A 40-lap, $7,000-to-win A-Main sponsored by World Auto Parts of Huron & Cleveland will headline the Wednesday-night program, which will include appearances by 2004 WoO LMS champion Scott Bloomquist of Mooresburg, Tenn., and Eldora's recent UMP DIRTcar Racing-sanctioned 'Dream 100' winner Steve Casebolt of Richmond, Ind.
The venerable quarter-mile, high-banked Lawrenceburg Speedway will hold its initial WoO LMS event on Thurs., July 26, just over three weeks after presenting a memorable UMP DIRTcar Racing Summernationals show for the dirt Late Models. The featured attraction will be a 40-lap A-Main paying $7,000 to win. History will be made on Fri., July 27, as Tony Stewart's Eldora Speedway hosts its biggest national touring dirt Late Model series event ever. The $10,000-to-win 'Subway 50' figures to draw a huge field of cars to the high-banked, half-mile oval, which has only one other dirt Late Model event on its schedule before the prestigious UMP DIRTcar Racing-sanctioned 'World 100' on Sept. 7-8. Among the entries for Eldora's historic WoO LMS show will be track owner Tony Stewart, who will zip over from NASCAR's Brickyard 400 weekend at Indianapolis Motor Speedway to drive a Rocket Chassis dirt Late Model. The swing concludes on Sat., July 28, at Dave Blaney's Sharon Speedway with a 50-lap, $10,000-to-win A-Main that boasts National Interstate Insurance as a presenting sponsor. A three-eighths-mile, semi-banked clay oval, Sharon's WoO LMS winners include Davey Johnson of Latrobe, Pa. (2004), 2006 tour champion Tim McCreadie of Watertown, N.Y. (2005) and Rick Eckert of York, Pa. (2006). A cool $1,500 bonus from a $6,000 points fund awaits the champion of National Interstate Speedweek. Second place in the final standings will pay $1,000, with third worth $800; fourth $600; fifth $500; sixth $400; seventh $350; eighth $325; ninth $275; and 10th $250.
