About the Libraries
The Entomology and Invertebrate Zoology Libraries, which are part of the Smithsonian Institution Libraries, Natural History Library, provide information support services to the Entomology and Invertebrate sections of the Department of Zoology at the National Museum of Natural History, 10th and Constitution Avenue, N.W., Washington, D.C. 20560 . In addition to serving museum staff, they also provide information assistance to a wide array of individuals including pre-doctoral students, post-doctoral fellows, visiting scientists, interns and the general public.
Entomology LibraryHistory The Entomology collection, established in 1881, supports the taxonomic interests of both the Smithsonian Department of Entomology, the U.S. Department of Agriculture (Systematic Entomology Laboratory), and the Department of Defense (Walter Reed Biosystematics Unit) entomologists who are stationed at the Smithsonian. As the Smithsonian received large quantities of insect specimens from government-sponsored expeditions, it divided these among collaborators for study and arrangement. SIL has received gifts and bequests from both agencies. With in-depth resources in systematic and taxonomic entomology, The Entomology collection stresses orders of Hempitera, Lepidoptera, Coleoptera, Hymenoptera, and Diptera within Insecta. Location The Entomology Library is located in the National Museum of Natural History on the fifth floor, east wing, in room E532. Entomology CollectionsThe 23,000 volume collection is weighted in the areas of taxonomy and anatomy of insects and related arthropods, especially arachnids, diptera, hymenoptera, coleoptera, lepidoptera, hemiptera, trichoptera and odonata.Entomology Library Serials Holdings
Collection Arrangement History
The library collections of the Department of Invertebrate Zoology have had a flexible existence coinciding with the many reorganizations of the Department which they serve. Their origin dates from 1881 when they were housed as separate collections in the Smithsonian's National Museum. The present-day Department of Invertebrate Zoology was originally established as the Department of Marine Invertebrates during the general reorganization of the U.S. National Museum in 1880. Except for mollusks and insects, all marine and aquatic invertebrates were included under its care and study.
Location Invertebrate Zoology CollectionCollection DescriptionThe 5000 volume collection consists of publications in general invertebrate zoology, invertebrate paleobiology, coelenterates, echinoderms, sponges, worms and tunicates. Invertebrate Zoology Libraries Serials Holdings
Collection Arrangement
History The Division of Mollusks under the Department of Invertebrate Zoology got under way with the acquisition of large quantities of shells from exploring expeditions. Little interest in researching the specimens existed until the publishing of a report on the Mollusca collected on the U.S. Exploring Expedition (Wilkes, 1838-42). William Healey Dall, one of America's foremost malacologists, came to the Smithsonian under Baird's influence in 1865, continuing under the employ of the U.S. Coast and Geodetic Survey and later the Geological Survey. Dall contributed to the sectional library over 7,500 books of his own, many of them rare and finely illustrated volumes. The gift vollumes deal with voyages and travels as well as mollusks. In 1990, a rare book collection was created from both the holdings extracted from a gift collection donated by Stillman S. Berry and the holdings from the general Mollusks collection, many of which came from William H. Dall's collection.
Location Mollusk CollectionCollection DescriptionThe 7000 volume collection covers bivalvia, gastropoda and cephalopoda. There is an extensive fossil section in addition to materials relating to living mollusks.

I haven't posted in a while, and I don't feel like doing a long journal entry at the moment (not as long as before anyway).
A lot has happened. I did well in my IB exams. Nearly everyone in my year did. We're all leaving, one by one, heading for university. At an outing to bid my current crush farewell, one of my previous crushes decided borrowed a shirt that was clearly made for girls, and acted really effeminate. He chased the most homophobic guy in our year around a bit, but then he put his shirt back on, for better or worse. But now my current crush, D, is gone, and I am more attracted to him than before.
I also came out to two more girls on the same night, but at different times. The first one said she was questioning her sexuality, since she was attracted to girls and guys. I so didn't expect that. The second one, whom I had a crush on when I thought I was straight, was really cool with it and gave me a hug after I told her. That makes twelve people who I've come out to.
And now that we're arranging my flight to Boston in September, I'm trying to convince my dad to give me a long stopover in the gay mecca of San Francisco rather than have to pay for accommodation in Boston. If I'm able to convince him, then I'll buy some gay paraphernalia to wear to college. If I do get any rainbow stuff, I think I won't ever wear more than one thing at a time, as rainbows don't really suit me (I'll only wear them because I don't believe in the strength of everyone else's gaydar).
I have a job working at a restaurant, but only on weekends. It's not worth the money, but it's fun. Everyone at work is really friendly and helpful, and I'm considering coming out to someone at work. I'm been doing a bit of jogging, with a heavy backpack to make the exercise more strenuous. I've seen nearly every English movie showing in our cinema. I'm making good progress in playing J.S. Bach's Tocatta and Fugue in D Minor on the piano. All my friends talk about how bored they are, but I've been really busy, and this is turning out to be one of my best summer holidays ever.
Where are you going for college? I live in Boston. Awesome city.
Hey im starting college in MA too in the fall...where are you going?
~If we were all the same, life would be boring
HEY i live in MA! thats cool...for some random reason
Hanover, New Hampshire. Boston is just part of the journey. However, I know of friends who are going to Boston.
It turns out that I won't need to stay the night in Boston, as a bus leaves late enough. So I won't be going to SF yet (sorry Jeff).

To make it break: Use It
I'm afraid I have a bit of a vice: I quite enjoy electronic gaming. I put it on my list of vices right after pistachios and bacon. The difference between this third place vice and the two of higher rankings is that I don't try to curb my intake of video games.
I have always preferred interactive entertainment to the passive kind. I do not believe I'm alone in this, since some video games have generated more revenues than a lot of movies. The challenge of these games continue to entrance me. Sometimes a piece of software woven by a dedicated producer will keep me entranced day after day. If you do not believe me, you can always ask my Xbox.
Today, that all changed. My Xbox has been on the edge lately; during a recent game, it decided to give me a bit of attitude and locked up. A few power cycles and it appeared to be good to continue fulfilling its purpose. I even spent some time testing it the next day, thinking I was ensuring the continuation of my video entertainment experience. After work today I thought I would spend some time wacking people with a lightsaber when the console decided to stop processing instructions.
At first I thought I was only a power cycle away from getting back into the action, although when I fulfilled my part of the bargin, the xbox decided to kick it up a notch and show me the dreaded RROD. This is not unfamiliar territory for me, as I've already burned out my first console.
I readied myself for Microsoft Support, and sent myself into their portal. After some time dealing with the Terminator of support websites, I managed to get to a point where I could troubleshoot my console. The instructions were easy to follow, and led to absolutely nowhere. The end of my online experience was a page that told me that my warranty was expired; a simple form into which I could place my credit card was displayed to me.
Phone Wes transcended the cage into which I put him and dialed customer support. The poor indian call center employee did not know what hit him. The other end of the phone seemed to be equipped with every answer and a plethora of questions. Phone Wes was curious how a console manufactured less than two years ago could already be outside the 3 year manufacturer's warranty. The unfortunate part is that Phone Wes is a bit of a prick, and can be rather aggressive towards the wrong target.
About half way through the conversation, I started to feel bad for 'Neil' as he didn't seem to have any of the answers, although he was more than willing to help. After a severe beating, it was agreed that the big corporation would pay for the repairs. A tentative peace was formed, and relavent details exchanged. Very soon, I can get back to my electronic distraction from Pistachios and Bacon

Some may see last night's results and say that the higher seed won all three games. I see last night's results and see that the road team won all three games, which brings the away team's record to 14-8 after six days of the 2012 Playoffs.
While that type of road dominance and home incompetence is hardly the norm in the NHL, it also shouldn't surprise anyone. Of the major sports, I've always been of the belief that home advantage in hockey has less of a psychological effect than in the others.
Gaining home court advantage in basketball, where crowds are almost sitting on top of the area of play (and in the case of courtside seats, are separated from players by mere inches) is huge, and the results prove it. In the NFL, a great home crowd can keep a team like the Seahawks respectable, not to mention the effects of weather and temperature on the outcome of a game. And while the fans might not make much of a difference in baseball, the difference in dimensions and esthetics between ball parks might, at the very least, be a sense of comfort and familiarity for the home players, while seeming foreign to the road players. And I haven't even mentioned the advantages or disadvantages of a hitter's park versus a pitcher's park depending on the makeup of a team.
In hockey, the fans are more barricaded from the ice than fans are from the field, court, diamond or pitch, and for the most part, I'd imagine many arenas look and feel the same from ice level, save for a select few. Plus in football and basketball, the volume of a crowd matters depending on which team is on the offensive and which is defending. In baseball, a pitcher or hitter might be distracted by the sound. In hockey, the pace of the game makes attacking and defending as close to a seamless transition as possible (except, of course, for powerplays), not really allowing for crowd noise to alter the balance of the ice one way or another.
I don't mean to downplay the importance of having the final change or having an advantage at the faceoff dot, both of which can make a difference, especially in a long, tight playoff series. But for the most part, unless a crowd is absolutely incredible (looking at you, 2011-2012 Jets fans), I don't buy the whole home ice "advantage" thing as much as I do home court or home field advantage.
Now here are your links:
- Speaking of home crowds, Senators fans find their voice in Game 3 against the Rangers (Ottawa Sun). I vehemently disagree with the article's notion that the Sens could give "fans around the country" something to cheer for or rally behind. Certain Canadians have to stop pretending that the seven teams situated north of the border have a "Team Canada" vibe to them. That would be the case if there was one Canadian team in the league, or maybe even just a couple. But there are seven teams scattered across five provinces and four time zones, and most of the roughly 35 million Canadians have allegiances to one of those seven teams. Just because the other five or six have been eliminated, doesn't mean the seventh team becomes a shining beacon of Canadian representation.
- Henrik Lundqvist's presence in goal set the tone for the Rangers' Game 3 win in Ottawa (New York Times).
- It's time for the NHL to stop acting like a kangaroo court when it comes to discipline (Sporting News). I agree with the suggestion to suspend Arron Asham for the remainder of the playoffs, as harsh as that might sound to some. It's time to set a real example when it comes to non-hockey plays and cowardly violent actions.
- Shea Weber's actions do not define his character (National Post).
- Mike Smith and Martin Hanzal did not practice with the Coyotes yesterday (Fox Sports Arizona).
- It took three games, but the Bruins are finally playing with an edge (ESPN).
- If you missed it last night, Jason Chimera speared Brad Marchand below the belt during a stoppage in play (theScore.com). Say what you will about Marchand, but I'd be willing to bet that the anguish you see is 100 per cent authentic pain.
- Capitals fans are trolling Tim Thomas with White House stuff (Puck Daddy) This is some of the better fan trolling I've seen in a while. Bravo, Washington.
- The Devils/Panthers series moves to New Jersey for Game 3 tonight, but the Devils can't count on home ice advantage (NorthJersey.com) New Jersey is just 4-9 in its last 13 home playoff games and is 3-7 since moving to Newark.
- Don Cherry backs Sidney Crosby (theScore.com).
- The Sharks aren't going to "reinvent the wheel" to improve their penalty kill against the Blues (NBCSports). The Blues went three-for-four with the man advantage in Game 3.

But Colorado couldn't do much about it. Immigration laws are federal laws, and state troopers patrolling the highways had no authority to question drivers or passengers about their immigration status. If they pulled over a suspected smuggling load, they were instructed to call federal ICE officers, who didn't always show up. If they didn't, the troopers couldn't do much more than issue the driver a traffic ticket.
Human smuggling was a federal crime only.
Groff, a Denver Democrat, decided to change that by introducing a bill that would make it a state crime to smuggle humans through Colorado. Meanwhile, state representative Alice Borodkin was gathering consensus for a bill to do the same for human trafficking — a more serious offense that involves selling people for money, holding them for ransom or forcing them to work against their will, sometimes as prostitutes. Borodkin was helming an all-inclusive task force that had until January 2007 to evaluate the state's current trafficking laws and propose new ones.
But by 2006, paranoia about illegal immigration had hit a new high. Both political parties clamored to pass legislation that showed they were addressing the issue, with Republicans seeking to stop illegal immigrants from receiving public benefits and restrict them from voting, and Democrats pursuing gentler measures, such as punishing businesses that knowingly hired undocumented workers.
According to Borodkin, Republican governor Bill Owens also put out a call to lawmakers for legislation regarding human smuggling and trafficking. Borodkin, also a Denver Democrat, obliged and wrote a bill that would have outlawed both.
But political wrangling caused Borodkin's bill to be split in two, and Groff, then the Senate president pro tem, would end up as the sponsor of both. "Peter and I had a little go-around about that," says Borodkin, who is no longer a state legislator. (Neither is Groff; he's now president of the National Alliance for Public Charter Schools.) "I was pissy because he jumped over my head. But the bottom line is, he got it passed."
To drum up support, Groff spent the morning of the day the bills were introduced in March 2006 patrolling I-70 with state troopers, hoping to see firsthand the types of situations the bill aimed to prevent. When he returned to the Capitol, he had a story to tell: He and the troopers had come across a wrecked van that was carrying seventeen suspected illegal immigrants. That, he told lawmakers, was proof they needed to police the problem. His bill sought to make it a crime to transport an illegal immigrant through Colorado in exchange for money or "any other thing of value," while his trafficking bill made it illegal to sell or barter an adult. He also sponsored a third bill to create a new 24-member division within the state patrol to address human smuggling and trafficking.
All three measures became law. But it wasn't enough for Owens, who called a special summer session to deal solely with illegal immigration. The five-day session resurrected many of the Republican-backed bills that had been quashed by the Democrat-controlled legislature and resulted in ten new laws and two resolutions. When it was over, Owens declared that in 2006, Colorado lawmakers had passed the "toughest immigration laws in the nation."
But they hadn't done so without objections. Claude d'Estree, a University of Denver professor who had been working to combat human trafficking since he first encountered it in 1998 as a prosecutor in the U.S. Attorney's Office in Washington, D.C., was an advisor to Borodkin's task force in 2006. He thought the legislature was jumping the gun in introducing bills to combat smuggling and trafficking before the trafficking task force had finished its work. Once he read the bills — short one-pagers that used simple language — he was even more outraged, and he ended up testifying against them.
"As a former prosecutor, I looked at this and said, 'I wouldn't know how to use this. What am I supposed to do with this bill?'" says d'Estree, now the head of DU's Human Trafficking Clinic. "People said, 'Claude, it's better to have something on the books and then improve it later.' That has never been my view. My sense is that if you craft crappy law, then it has a reputation from that day on of being crappy."
After he was arrested, Jose Chacón-Posada agreed to speak to trooper Patrick Williams without a lawyer. He told Williams that he worked for a company called Paisanos Van Lines LLC out of Houston. He'd been a driver for them for the past two and a half months. The company, he said, was run by three people: Rene, the boss; Chuy, the second in command; and Jesus. One of the three would call him several times a week to see if he wanted to take a trip, driving passengers to destinations around the country and dropping them off. He got paid $600 per trip, plus $500 in expenses.
The passengers had the option of paying Paisanos before they left or paying Chacón-Posada once they reached their destination. Paisanos would give him a trip manifest that listed the passengers' names, their destinations, a phone number to call once they got there and the money they owed. He said he never kept the passengers' money himself; his instructions were to turn it all over to Paisanos.

I read the FAQ's for Earwigs and no mention was made of Earwig traps. I find they are the best and only way to kill Earwigs in my opinion. I once had a bed of mostly Marigolds and overnight it was desimated by baby Earwigs. I put out 1 of these traps in a baby food jar and the next morning it was full to the top with little gray baby Earwigs. It works for the adults too. Making the traps The reason behind the ingredients |
Follow-Up Postings:
Great idea to post some earwig trap ideas! I don't think that you need the sweet stuff at all but they are apparently attracted to the smell of soy sauce. Floating some oil on top is a good step. Earwigs are also attracted to beer....just as slugs are. My favorite trap is to fold a couple of sheets of newspapers, then roll them into a tube. Soak in water, then place in an area where the earwigs have been seen overnight. In tbe morning, toss out the newspapers and all of the lodgers. |
- Posted by dowlinggram 3 (My Page) on Fri, Mar 22, 13 at 22:24
Well rhizo I have tried your way with rolled newspaper and didn't get near as many earwigs as with these traps. I have also tried pieces of bamboo and lots of other ways. I tried beer too for slugs in a small plot where I had planted lettuce. The slugs ruined all the lettuce I put out beer and got all of 2 slugs. I decided to pull all the lettuce and the slugs in the row were laying one on top of the other. I had boiled water for instant coffee and grabbed the kettle and boiled the buggers. Then I put out safers slug bait. I seldom have a problem with slugs now I consider these traps to be the best way to deal with Earwigs and putting them out drastically cuts the number of them I have to deal with. I have never cut out the sweet stuff and I don't think I will. They cost very little to make because you only use enough to cover about 1/2 inch of the bottom of the container. Why fool with something that works |
Although many people love to hate earwigs many do not seem to grasp that they are also predators of many of the insect pests that are in our gardens. |
Here is a link that might be useful: About Earwigs
dowling, I wasn't trying to negate what you've said....just adding to your good suggestions with my own. There are plenty of ways to get the job done, I think, and I'm just glad that you've brought the subject up and made some good suggestions! Kimmsr....one day I would hope that you could learn from others' experience. Occasionally, even a healthy, balanced garden can become over populated with earwigs and that can be devastating to young plants, in particular. I do thank you for that link...it describes mentions the many plants that earwigs love to eat and several other control strategies besides the ones that dowlinggram and I offered. Housekeeping practices can be quite important (changing the environment) in keeping these insects under a pest status threshold. |
Rhizo, I know many people that have had 1 years experience 30 times and many others that have had 30 years experience. When people such as Ann Lovejoy, Lee Reich, Rebecca Coles, and numerous others tell us that making the soil good and healthy so our plants will grow up strong and healthy and will be better able to withstand insect pests, but also encourage us to do what we can to encourage the beneficial insects perhaps we should listen to them., |
- Posted by dowlinggram 3 (My Page) on Mon, Mar 25, 13 at 19:27
kimmser. For many years I didn't do much to control Earwigs. but 3 years ago I was overrun with them. My plants were very healthy and my soil can rival the best soil around. I have many beneficial insects in my garden. I know what they look like and encourage them to stay. I have a few toad houses and some resident toads as well. No beneficial insect could have stemmed this envasion of Earwigs. I not only had them in the garden but in the house as well. If you garden as long as I have there will come a time when you have to take action too or face the fact that all your hard work is for nothing. I am offering a non chemical environmentally friendly way to get rid of Earwigs if they become pests. If you want to keep them around your place that's fine but I don't |

text: Good news for anyone in or around the Livingston county area. The Howell Area Parks and Recreation department has been approved for and are ready to build the counties 3rd 18 hole disc golf course. The planned location is on a 30 acre parcel in Marion Township's park #2. The park is located at 877 W. Coon lake rd on the township hall property on Coon lake road, by Country farm road. Installation of the baskets, posts and benches is set to take place on May 21st from 9-4. Volunteers are welcome if you want to get a sneak peak of the course set-up before anyone else. You can call (517) 546-0693, ext. 0 if your interested. I know I'll be there. The course will be free for the rest of this year and then a small fee will be decided on for next year based on maintenance costs. Although the course cost almost $10,000 for all the equipment needed it's a fairly inexpensive investment for the county to make on such a rapidly growing sport. Howell parks plan to host leagues as well as tournaments this summer at the course. Howell park and rec has organized a grand opening event on June18th. It will definitely be worth checking out. New courses usually offer a limited edition grand opening disc for purchase and other grand opening gear. We'll have to wait and see.

Cleaning Up the Yard
Yesterday was my day for yard work and today I am so fucking sore that I could hardly lift my arms over my head to wash my hair in the shower. We had really bad storms on Thursday night, and my yard was covered with broken off tree limbs and piles of leaves. Some of the tree limbs were bigger round than my arm and were quite heavy to drag across the yard. Now I have a big pile of tree limbs and branches on the side of the house and the trash guys won't come pick them up until the end of January. I guess I need to borrow somebody's truck and haul these to the landfill that accepts yard waste. I don't want a pile of branches sitting there for almost 3 months. Who know what kind of critters will end up trying to climb in there make nests over the winter. With my luck a family of fucking skunks would decide to make that their home.

What municipality are you in? Check with the local community college. They will often have the courses you need to study for the certification exams. |
- Posted by petey_racer (My Page) on Wed, Mar 27, 13 at 7:05
It ALL depends on where you are. In NYS for instance there are literally NO qualifications or requirements to be an electrician in much of the state. On the contrary, in MA and CT the requirements are many and you also require continuing education throughout your career. |

Think about a union apprenticeship through the IBEW. The classes are free- the only costs incurred are buying books. You'll save thousands of dollars and complete an apprenticeship which is recognized by state and federal government. Some 'trade schools' charge $10k+ for 6 or 12 month course and give a 'certificate' which essentially means nothing to employers. Becoming a journeyman -electrician or other skilled trades- gives the opportunity to earn decent money without going to college and all the associated debt. Good luck with school and stay safe in the field- I'll get off my soapbox now :) Here's a link from the ca.gov site giving info and wages- looks like a first year apprentice makes $15.82 http://www.dir.ca.gov/databases/das/results_aigdetail.asp?varOccId=448 |
Here is a link that might be useful: Orange County electrical apprenticeship
The IBEW apprenticeship (JATC) also includes (here in Indy at least) an associates degree at a local community college. It is paid for by your employer. As stated before, the only cost to you is books and 5 years of your time. Well worth the investment. |

Ok, so I have a bed of daffodils that's about to be disturbed, possibly removed entirely. How can I store the bulbs? Should I plant them again immediately, or can I dust them with something, let them dry and pack 'em away like I do my caladiums in the winter? |

Replant them as soon as possible. The bulbs just sit underground, waiting for their timer to go off in the spring. While you are replanting, a little bone meal or rotted manure wouldn't hurt. I envy you a whole bed of daffodils! |

How deep are daffodils supposed to be. I got a box full that In the mail with the foliage still intact a couple of months ago and replanted right away but now that the foliage is gone I keep finding bulbs popping up with no roots when I pull grass and weeds out. |

Joining us from Coimbra, Portucal we have Tiago Cunha. Tiago is going to be doing sparc and probably amd64 keywording too and maintain a couple of packages. He has contributed a patch here and there and like usual knows a bunch of programming languages. In his free time he likes to watch Sci-Fi and especially the battles that keep the wraith or the Ori at bay. Now it's time to file a bunch of keywording bugs so that Tiago doesn't get bored and old-timers can offload their work to him. Regards, Petteri

LOTR LEGO Minifigs Inbound, Playsets Hopefully Not Far Behind
Last spring we talked about a giant LEGO recreation of the Garrison of Moria from The Lord of the Rings. The only thing missing from the setting was official LOTR minifigs. Now it looks like these missing characters are coming soon according to a pic that has surfaced.
Apparently, a guy from the LEGO site Brickset was at the 2012 UK Toy Fair and while he couldn't get pics inside the booth to share, he was able to shoot a pic of a photo on the side of the booth showing off the new LOTR minifigs. The photo clearly shows that the entire fellowship of the rings is coming in Minifig form.
We also have a few hi-res LOTR movie-inspired posters here which LEGO was kind enough to share with us recently, featuring Frodo, Legolas and Aragorn in minifig form:
Brickset also reports there are a number of LOTR LEGO playsets coming too, and not just the minifigs. The early pics look really cool, and I bet LEGO fans that also love the films and the books will be salivating when they arrive. I'd keep an eye peeled during the New York Toy Fair in early February for more details to emerge, or bookmark LEGO's LOTR web page, which indicates that something is coming in Summer 2012.

Comments (2):
This is just too cool. :-) My whole geeky household would just love this. I can see 3 or 4 (if you include the hobbit) PC/Wii video games and lots of cool kits. I'd love to see Lego Ents, Orks and Golum. It would be so much fun being frodo in the lego games gathering and hiding and occasionally killing monsters. I hope this actually happens.
This link is real. It doesn't show much but it is encouraging. It means LEGO is serious about it.
Imagine spending Christmas afternoon with the kids building Lego siege-works and fortifications with lots of archers and swordsmen and orks. Lego Gandolf and Shadowfax. I think that the ring-wraiths could ride the familiar skeleton horses, although in the book they ride real horses. It will be fascinating to see the decisions they make.

Architect Gio Ponti founded FontanaArte in 1932 as an artistic division of the Luigi Fontana Company. Historically, the company has been a leader in advanced glass manufacturing and design. The company's works were first distinguished by its realization of artistic stained-glass windows, many of which are today still functional elements and ornamental features of churches and cathedrals, among them the Duomo of Milan and the Cathedral of Brasilia. By using glass, Ponti realized what an enormous potential this material could offer in the in the making of furnishing complements for interiors, and he started to design and produce furniture, lamps and objects with glass as the main distinguishing feature. Soon a new collection was ready to be marketed, and his new design concept was being used as a complement to the interior decoration of many houses that he personally designed. Over the years, FontanaArte has had many contributors to its designs, including Pietro Chiesa, Gae Aulenti, Pierluigi Cerri, Piero Castiglioni, Vico Magistretti, Vittorio Gregotti, Ettore Sottsass, Umberto Riva, Alvaro Siza and Renzo Piano.

A similar story for tonight as we saw last night, broken cloud cover with a slight chance for some sprinkles at times but a good southerly wind will keep lows comfortably in the mild category tonight, in the mid 40s overall.
Tomorrow through early Friday, a second storm develops but holds offshore and sends waves of showers at the Northwest. Most of the those will develop in the afternoon hours and the mountains may see an occasional thunderstorm or two Wednesday and Thursday with a slight chance of a stray storm slipping into the valley. Highs will stay mild, in the upper 50s and low 60s and snow lines will jump up well above the Passes to around 7000 feet.
The best news of the week may be that all indications are pointing towards a dry Easter weekend. The showers head south but the warm air sticks around helping highs climb into the upper 60s for both Saturday and Sunday! In fact, Saturday may see the warmest temperatures that we've seen this calendar year. The low driving all the midweek showers will move into Northern California over the weekend. Most of the rain chances should stay south of Western Oregon, but there's a slight chance some might try and slip into the southern Umpqua, we'll watch that trend over the next couple of days.
Otherwise, dry and mild weather sticks around through at least Tuesday when shower chances start to move back in. However, there's no major storm in the models out in the 7-10 day range as of now.
Have a great Tuesday!

Arthritis is the inflammation of the joints in one or more areas within the body that can cause pain, discomfort, and joint stiffness. For those who suffer from this difficult condition, a number of solutions may alleviate its symptoms. Osteoarthritis can affect most joints in the body, and joint stiffness is a significant complaint.
For patients suffering from joint stiffness or who have other mild arthritis symptoms, stretching and light physical activity as well as heat may help relieve discomfort. In addition, physical therapy may be greatly therapeutic. Combined with directed exercise, it can be helpful for certain conditions, such as shoulder, spine, and knee arthritis.
According to California-based physician James Davis, analgesics can also be used to control the accompanying pain and discomfort. For arthritis pain that is mild or moderate, acetaminophen either alone or combined with an anti-inflammatory drug, such as ibuprofen, may provide some relief. However, close medical supervision may be necessary with continued use of these drugs due to the possible side effects of anti-inflammatory drugs, so use caution.
Since arthritis patients may suffer more severe effects during the cold weather months, simply staying active may prevent joints from getting stiff and sore during the winter season. Gentle stretching activities appropriate for one's age and fitness level and staying warm are also beneficial. Overall, with the help of physical therapy, exercise, and modern medicine, relief for those suffering from arthritis may be within reach for the New Year.

We will soon be updating our website. Over the course of the next few weeks you may notice some changes.
We apologize for any inconvenience this may cause as we make this transition.
The Nebraska Aviation Trades Association (NATA) is a non-profit state trade association which represents the aerial application industry in Nebraska. The NATA was formed in 1948 at the Fontenelle Hotel in Omaha, NE by a handful of aerial applicators and has now grown to represent 180 aerial applicators in Nebraska and surrounding states.
The Ag Aviation industry has played a pertinent role in America's agriculture production for over 80 years. In the early years of aerial application the products applied to the crops were dusting materials; hence the name crop duster. Today the roles of aerial applicators have gone far beyond crop spraying. Many aerial applicators put their aircraft to work on Timber seeding and fertilization, fire bombing, special operations for drug eradication, surveillance of U.S. borders and other especial operations.
Today, the highly sophisticated Ag aircraft use the latest in Global Positioning Satellite (GPS) technology, advanced flow control systems that monitor product dispersement, and highly developed calibration software that helps pilots maintain pinpoint accuracy. It is estimated over 50% of our agricultural commodities would be lost to pest infestation without the efficient and timely application of crop protection products.
NATA is constantly striving to reinforce concerns for the environment and the professionalism and education of its members. Professional Ag pilots are recertified every three years and attend continuing education courses to stay up to date on industry trends, product information, and regulations to continue to safely and effectively protect our environment, our food supply and citizens.
Once a year, the Professional Aerial Applicator Support System (PAASS) presents its program to our members. The primary goals of the PAASS program are to reduce aviation accidents, drift incidents, enhance the commercial aerial applicator profession by improving the understanding of human factors, enhancing critical Aeronautical Decision-Making skills, and inducing positive behavioral change.
Operation S.A.F.E. (Self-Regulating Application and Flight Efficiency) began in the early 1980s to improve the overall quality of the aerial application process. This is a voluntary program in which a professional analyst uses a computer system and chemical dyes to evaluate the aircraft spray patterns and make any adjustments needed. BASF is sponsoring the Operation SAFE program and will bring the equipment to each pilot individually to have their aircraft tested.
Our purpose: To create strong communications among our members and to provide education opportunities and current information on all facets of Nebraska's aviation related industries and to affect mutually beneficial legislation and strengthen agricultural aviation's image as a responsible, safety-conscious industry.

The College is demanding that government officials in Buenos Aires address the matter.
In one chapter, the textbook discusses "abortifacient medicines" and mentions methotrexate—often used to treat cancer or arthritis—and oxaprost, which contains the anti-inflammatory misoprostol.
Published by Puerto del Palos, the book explains that these drugs, "produce a decrease in mortality caused by abortions. Due to the scarce and negative information that is circulated about them, they are used improperly, without a prescription, and even more seriously, as a contraceptive, without understanding that in reality they terminate a pregnancy (abortion) and force the embryo to be expelled."
Nestor Luciani, a spokesman for the Buenos Aires College of Pharmacy, called the textbook "deceitful and incorrect," since it contains "distorted information."
Speaking to local reporters, he warned that "the therapeutic action that is attributed to the aforementioned drugs is not that which is specified by the competent healthcare authorities, and their use as an abortifacient drug could have fatal consequences."

hi -- planting a privacy hedge using photinia, but would like to add a different plant every so often so it doesn't look like a wall -- any hints -- thanks |
Follow-Up Postings:
- Posted by dibbit z7b SC (firstname.lastname@example.com) on Mon, Apr 7, 08 at 23:47
Since you are using photinia (I assume red-tip photinia?), I also assume you want a tall, evergreen hedge? What about adding Podocarpus? Thuja 'Emerald Green' - AKA Emerald, Emerald beauty or Smaragd - grows to 15-20' x 3-4'. T. 'De Groot's Spire' is shorter and skinnier. 'Sky Pencil' holly is too slow and narrow to be a major player, but might provide an accent. Arizona Cypress has bluish needles, and cultivars that are narrow, as does Italian Cypress, which is more green - both may grow too tall with time. There are columnar Junipers as well, growing from 12-19' x 3-12', depending on the selection. Cephalotaxus, Japanese plum yew, grows to 10-15' x 10' wide, takes pruning very well, and has smaller and narrower cultivars such as 'Stricta', 10' x 6-8'. Get hold of a copy of the Sunset Garden Book - either look in a good book store or try your library, if you don't have or want to buy your own - and look in the front of it to see what they list for hedge trees/shrubs. |

To see oneself as one of such true ones, or to enter their circles in a dream means that one is following their example and enjoying or suffering similar trials to theirs, then he will triumph over his enemies.

Introducing the Finger Play
Finger plays are best used in the classroom with the children watching you and modeling your actions. Try having the children sit in front of you or in a circle. We like to sit on pillows on the floor. You may also want to use a felt board to begin introducing the vocabulary. Put up the characters in the order they will appear in the finger play. Place the name above each character. For example, for the Incy Wincy Spider I put a spider, a water spout, the sun, and the rain. I have the children repeat the words. When possible I also vary the voices for each character. I want the children to visualize the characters in order for them to remember the words that go with that character. (more…)

Anyone ever stained clay pots with a wood siding type stain (I think there are also stains made for concrete?)? I'm interested mainly in darkening my pots but also adding a bit of color -- a bit of burgandy or brown, irregularly applied -- to make them more interesting and rustic and bring out colors in foliage of the plants.
Thanks for any help! |
Follow-Up Postings:
I haven't done clay pots but I stained my chiminea using the blue stain I put on my deck. It worked great, although, after sitting outside in the snow all winter, it could use another coat. I also stained every other brick surrounding my mulch garden. That has held up well. Laurel Laurel |

Margarita Cupcakes {#recipe}
Summer's end is right around the corner but we have one more last woorah left with Labor Day weekend. I have a great summer cupcake that will help celebrate the last official summer weekend. I don't know about you but in the summer our official drink is margaritas. We take it even to the point where our girls drink virgin margaritas from time to time. Since we love margaritas in a liquid form, I thought why not try them in a solid for by making cupcakes. Try these and thank me later. They are awesome!!
Helping Cope with a Public Tragedy
Even if you don't live in St. Louis, you probably know what has gone on since Saturday morning. A tragic even occurred between a young man and a police officer. While the details are still unknown as the investigation has just been taken over by the FBI, the why some of the community is "honoring" and "protesting" this event is gone too far. The rioting and looting that occurred over the night has devastated this community and unfortunately many children are either being encouraged to take part, dragged along, or just innocent bystanders that are witnessing this horrific act. This is not how the mourning family, actually anyone involved in this event, wanted the demonstrations to turn into. I would like to share some things that we as parents can do to help our children get over such a traumatic event. [Read more…]
To Pea or not to Pea….that is the question
I am super excited to introduce you to our new contributor and someone I am honored to call my online friend (one day now that we live close to each other we will meet) Jennifer. She is a mom of four, three beautiful little girls and one angel boy. I am very excited to welcome her to the CrazyCoolCrafty Family!!
Okay, that is a corny title, but perhaps it got your attention. You see, I have an 8 month old baby girl at home and I have decided to make all (or as much as I can) of her baby food. These days with the various social media sites, you can find almost any recipe you want. I took that route. I did some digging. Got a few ideas, but it all came down to what I was willing to feed my little one. You see, in our house we have very varied palates. I have to give all the credit to my husband, he has opened my eyes to many a weird food in our 13 year union (uh…raw octopus, yuck!). I also spoke with a pediatric dietician about the kinds of foods our daughter needs. Since she was a preemie, her requirements tend to be a little different. Let's face it, she is an awful pooper…just awful. So, using banana to flavor things like spinach is a no-no.
My method is simple, I come up with things that offer the maximum amount of nutrition, but taste good too. Homemade baby food has roughly 25% more calories per serving than store bought and you control the ingredients. Plus by steaming, you maintain the most vitamins and minerals possible. My grocery list consisted of: spinach, kale, apples, pears, bananas, mangoes, carrots, peas, green beans, avocado, and sweet potatoes. The method is simple, steam everything in a large pot with roughly an inch to inch and a half of water in the bottom. I happen to have a small colander that fits inside my pot. Cover it with a lid and simmer until tender. I peeled the carrots and sweet potato, but left the skin on all of the fruits (minus the mango, I bought a bag of organic mango cubes from my favorite store). Once it is tender, I dumped it all in my high power blender and gave it a nice whirl. Use the cooking liquid to thin the puree. Spoon it into ice cube trays and pop them in the freezer. When they are frozen, pop the cubes out and put them in a labeled freezer storage bag. Glass containers are always best, but I haven't found ones I like yet. These should keep about 3 months if stored in the back of the freezer. Note: I try to buy all organic produce, but it isn't always possible nor is it always necessary. You can find a comprehensive list of the dirty dozen via Google.
The concoctions I came up with were as follows: Carrots, Mangoes, Pears with cinnamon, Apples with cinnamon, Spinach/Kale/Apples, Avocado/Banana, Peas, Green Beans, Sweet Potato with cinnamon, and plain bananas.
Every batch I made was tested by my 3 year old daughters and approved. In fact, I have to fight them in order for the baby to get her fill…SCORE! They are little herbivore's though…give them a veggie plate and some olives and they are good to go.
I still buy the ready-made organic pouches for when we are on the go. There are several good quality choices available at your local store, but I would give making your own a whirl. It's a lot of fun and seeing the happy baby with peas all over her face that you made is very rewarding.

The Blood Type Diet Archives Volume 1
Posted By: Peter D'AdamoDate: February 16, 1997 at 09:04:47
In Response To: Re: AB Type & Arterial Disease/clotting? (anne hart)
Hi Anne,
Tofu and soy based proteins are very good for type AB. In general, AB's have some of the grain tolerance of A's and an ability to handle dairy similar to B's. With regard to menopause, as the book says, AB's do OK on natural -type estrogens called "estriol" (Estrase, Osta B3) rather than with the synthetics (Premarin). A major recomendation for this type is the inclusion of immune-enhancing and "adaptogenic" herbs such as Echinacea and Siberian Ginseng (Eleutheroccus) as part of a standard supplement regimen. For cardiovascular protection, the herb Hawthorne (Crataegus) should be included also. As the detox mechanism in AB's is not great, some vitamin C and bioflavanoids would also be a good idea.

Church Renewal Journey
The Church Renewal Journey is a disciple-making process that helps a church grow their members into On Mission Disciples. The laity of the church with pastoral involvement leads the Journey rather than another program that the pastor has to push.
The Journey has three major steps or phases that are accomplished in church weekend events, each one building on the previous step. They are:
The Church Renewal Weekend is the first step in the Journey and is called the Awakening Stage. It is a weekend of family building among the church members and is referred to as an inward journey. The main purpose of the weekend is to renew our relationship with the Lord, remembering who we are and whose we are and help us understand where we are along our Christian journey.
A visiting team of Christians from other churches come and participates with the church during the weekend, leading in praise songs and testimonies about where they are on their Journey. They are not Super Christians, just ones that are aware of their journey and are willing to testify about what the Lord is doing in their life at the present time.
The weekend begins at the church on Friday night with a church-wide meal, then a general session in the sanctuary. There are meetings in the church members homes on Saturday morning and separate men and ladies luncheon meetings. Free time is after lunch until Saturday evening when the church regroups for another meal and general session and special family prayer time.
Part of the Sunday School time in used for testimonies from home church members about what the weekend has meant to them and a special Sunday worship service completes the visiting team member's part of the weekend. The highlight of the weekend is the Evaluation Service Sunday night, when the church as a body evaluates what the Holy Spirit has been saying to them during the Weekend.
The Lay Ministry Weekend is the second step or Activation Phase of the Journey and usually follows the Renewal Weekend in 6 to 12 months. This weekend is about understanding that we are all called, gifted and sent by the Almighty Creator, who desires to accomplish His work using us as His instruments in reconciling His creation back to Him.
This weekend deals with helping church members to realize that they are all called and gifted, not just pastors. This phase of the Journey is based around a weekend study about spiritual gifts, who has them and how the gifts are the used in ministry and how we can recognize them in each other.
The schedule of this weekend is similar to the Renewal weekend with the addition of a Bible Resource Leader, who teaches about Spiritual Gifts and ways we can discover our gifts and our SHAPE for ministry during each general session.
After the Saturday night general session, the church has a special Affirmation Service, where the church members, who have been studying about gifts and how to recognize them, get a chance to affirm and encourage each other in their giftedness and ministries or service. This is always a powerful time for the church as they encourage and build up the body as Christ instructed us to do.
On-Mission Church Weekend is the third step of the Journey and is the Advocacy phase. The weekend is similar to the Ministry Weekend but The On Mission Church Study is being taught during the general sessions.
When one realizes how we each are uniquely gifted and called to a variety of different ministries, we can understand why one person may see God working in a certain area and others may see him working in a totally different area.
We also learn that when we see Him working, our love for Him is what causes us to want to join Him in what He is doing rather than trying to do our own thing. No longer do we seek to do our own ideas of ministry in our timing, but we wait and join Him in His ministry in His timing. This study helps Christians, who want to serve, know that there is a BIG difference in doing His work His way rather than trying to do His work our way.
The next step in the Journey? By this time the church will be able to decide the direction the Lord is leading them and can choose among many options for their next step. Of course a church can start with any weekend they think they are ready for or go in a totally different direction as the Lord leads. Many other Church Renewal Journey weekends are available such as: Discipleship Weekends; Family Weekends; Life in the Spirit Weekends; Concentric Circles Weekends; and others.
