The Friends sponsor two major book sales per year. Additionally, the Friends have a year-round book sale in the library that currently includes magazines, cookbooks, paperbacks, hardbacks and some children's books. To round out book-buying opportunities, the Friends list approximately 400 titles of unusual, rare, and special books on the internet at
These annual book sales are supported by the generosity of the library patrons through their donations. Donations are accepted year-round at the library's book return desk.
Friends are always looking for volunteers to sort, setup, and run the book sales. The Friends also need help sorting and restocking magazines and paperbacks year-round.
Members of the Friends volunteer teams shelve children's picture books, videos, and CDs; mend books; process and shelve magazines; and serve as docents for our genealogy collection.
The Friends 2014 Fall Book Sale generated $17,800 to be used to purchase items for the library.

A Grip, a Producer and a Director were riding to the location in the grip truck and were in a horrible accident. They all died and went to heaven.
When they knocked on the Pearly Gates, St. Peter appeared and asked them who they were and what their occupations were. Then he said, "Listen fellas, I gotta proposition for you...what with all the people there are dying on earth right now, I'm seriously overloaded here. Tell you what - if each of you gives me ten dollars, I'll send you back, and you can live out your natural lives, and come back peacefully, when I'm not so busy."
As soon as the director heard this, he pulled a tenner out of his wallet and handed it to the saint. Shortly thereafter, he came to his senses in the wreckage of the truck, with a policeman there helping to pull him to safety. After getting him out of the wrecked truck and helping him to the side of the road, the policeman asked him what had happened, and the director told him all about the experience with St. Peter at the gates of Heaven. The cop looked around quickly and said "but, what happened to the other two chaps that were in the truck with you?"
"I'm not sure," said the director, "When I left, the Producer had him negotiated down to $8.50 and the Grip was looking for a co-signer!"

If you are new to the virtual foodland on the blog-o-sphere you might be wondering why today bunches and bunches of foodies are blogging about the same thing. Don't worry, it is not a conspiracy to take over the world with croissants. Neither have we been brain washed by an alien Dutch braid with superior intelligence. We are only the Daring Bakers. This group of crazy people (founded by my lovely friends Lisa and Ivonne) get together each month to bake something new, challenging and fun and we all agree to post our results the same day. Doesn't that sound exciting?
Since I love to bake, I love this group and all the challenges they come up with each month. That's why I was so excited when my beautiful and lovely friend Kelly asked me to co-host this month. After several e-mail conversations we decided to go with a laminated dough that sounded to die for, Dutch dough from Sherry Yard's The Secrets of Baking. And what do you do with Dutch dough? Dutch braids! We thought this was a perfect challenge for the group because it would give the opportunity to many members to work on their laminated dough skills and they would be creative with the fillings and toppings and after making a braid they were encouraged to try something else with the remaining dough. It is exciting to see the results. You can see for yourselves by visiting more DB's blogs here.
I made 2 braids, one filled with mango jam and the other with cream. I took pictures of both of them, I swear, but my freaking memory card decided to stop working right when I was going to edit the pictures on my computer. GRRRRR! Sometimes I HATE technology. Good thing is that I had saved 3 (only 3!) pictures of my first batch. This was my first attempt and it is not as pretty as the others, but at least I am showing you pictures, right? Now it is time to start visiting other DB's blogs to see their challenges.
Note: The recipe for this bread is at the end of the post.
Buen provecho!
Makes 2-1/2 pounds dough
For the dough (Detrempe)
1 ounce fresh yeast or 1 tablespoon active dry yeast
1/2 cup whole milk
1/3 cup sugar
Zest of 1 orange, finely grated
3/4 teaspoon ground cardamom
1-1/2 teaspoons vanilla extract
1/2 vanilla bean, split and scraped
2 large eggs, chilled
1/4 cup fresh orange juice
3-1/4 cups all-purpose flour
1 teaspoon saltFor the butter block (Beurrage)
1/2 pound (2 sticks) cold unsalted butter
1/4 cup all-purpose flourDOUGH
Combine yeast and milk in the bowl of a mixer fitted with the paddle attachment and mix on low speed. Slowly add sugar, orange zest, cardamom, vanilla extract, vanilla seeds, eggs, and orange juice. Mix well. Change to the dough hook and add the salt with the flour, 1 cup at a time, increasing speed to medium as the flour is incorporated. Knead the dough for about 5 minutes, or until smooth. You may need to add a little more flour if it is sticky. Transfer dough to a lightly floured baking sheet and cover with plastic wrap. Refrigerate for 30 minutes.Without a standing mixer: Combine yeast and milk in a bowl with a hand mixer on low speed or a whisk. Add sugar, orange zest, cardamom, vanilla extract, vanilla seeds, eggs, and orange juice and mix well. Sift flour and salt on your working surface and make a fountain. Make sure that the "walls" of your fountain are thick and even. Pour the liquid in the middle of the fountain. With your fingertips, mix the liquid and the flour starting from the middle of the fountain, slowly working towards the edges. When the ingredients have been incorporated start kneading the dough with the heel of your hands until it becomes smooth and easy to work with, around 5 to 7 minutes. You might need to add more flour if the dough is sticky.
1. Combine butter and flour in the bowl of a mixer fitted with a paddle attachment and beat on medium speed for 1 minute. Scrape down the sides of the bowl and the paddle and then beat for 1 minute more, or until smooth and lump free. Set aside at room temperature.
2. After the detrempe has chilled 30 minutes, turn it out onto a lightly floured surface. Roll the dough into a rectangle approximately 18 x 13 inches and ¼ inch thick. The dough may be sticky, so keep dusting it lightly with flour. Spread the butter evenly over the center and right thirds of the dough. Fold the left edge of the detrempe to the right, covering half of the butter. Fold the right third of the rectangle over the center third. The first turn has now been completed. Mark the dough by poking it with your finger to keep track of your turns, or use a sticky and keep a tally. Place the dough on a baking sheet, wrap it in plastic wrap, and refrigerate for 30 minutes.
3. Place the dough lengthwise on a floured work surface. The open ends should be to your right and left. Roll the dough into another approximately 13 x 18 inch, ¼-inch-thick rectangle. Again, fold the left third of the rectangle over the center third and the right third over the center third. No additional butter will be added as it is already in the dough. The second turn has now been completed. Refrigerate the dough for 30 minutes.
4. Roll out, turn, and refrigerate the dough two more times, for a total of four single turns. Make sure you are keeping track of your turns. Refrigerate the dough after the final turn for at least 5 hours or overnight. The Danish dough is now ready to be used. If you will not be using the dough within 24 hours, freeze it. To do this, roll the dough out to about 1 inch in thickness, wrap tightly in plastic wrap, and freeze. Defrost the dough slowly in the refrigerator for easiest handling. Danish dough will keep in the freezer for up to 1 month.APPLE FILLING
Makes enough for two braidsIngredients
4 Fuji or other apples, peeled, cored, and cut into ¼-inch pieces
1/2 cup sugar
1 tsp. ground cinnamon
1/2 vanilla bean, split and scraped
1/4 cup fresh lemon juice
4 tablespoons unsalted butterToss all ingredients except butter in a large bowl. Melt the butter in a sauté pan over medium heat until slightly nutty in color, about 6 – 8 minutes. Then add the apple mixture and sauté until apples are softened and caramelized, 10 to 15 minutes. If you've chosen Fujis, the apples will be caramelized, but have still retained their shape. Pour the cooked apples onto a baking sheet to cool completely before forming the braid. (If making ahead, cool to room temperature, seal, and refrigerate.) They will cool faster when spread in a thin layer over the surface of the sheet. After they have cooled, the filling can be stored in the refrigerator for up to 3 days. Left over filling can be used as an ice cream topping, for muffins, cheesecake, or other pastries.
Makes enough for 2 large braidsIngredients
1 recipe Danish Dough (see below)
2 cups apple filling, jam, or preserves (see below)For the egg wash: 1 large egg, plus 1 large egg yolk
1. Line a baking sheet with a silicone mat or parchment paper. On a lightly floured surface, roll the Danish Dough into a 15 x 20-inch rectangle, ¼ inch thick. If the dough seems elastic and shrinks back when rolled, let it rest for a few minutes, then roll again. Place the dough on the baking sheet.
2. Along one long side of the pastry make parallel, 5-inch-long cuts with a knife or rolling pastry wheel, each about 1 inch apart. Repeat on the opposite side, making sure to line up the cuts with those you've already made.
3. Spoon the filling you've chosen to fill your braid down the center of the rectangle. Starting with the top and bottom "flaps", fold the top flap down over the filling to cover. Next, fold the bottom "flap" up to cover filling. This helps keep the braid neat and helps to hold in the filling. Now begin folding the cut side strips of dough over the filling, alternating first left, then right, left, right, until finished. Trim any excess dough and tuck in the ends.Egg Wash
Whisk together the whole egg and yolk in a bowl and with a pastry brush, lightly coat the braid.Proofing and Baking
1. Spray cooking oil (Pam…) onto a piece of plastic wrap, and place over the braid. Proof at room temperature or, if possible, in a controlled 90 degree F environment for about 2 hours, or until doubled in volume and light to the touch.
2. Near the end of proofing, preheat oven to 400 degrees F. Position a rack in the center of the oven.
3. Bake for 10 minutes, then rotate the pan so that the side of the braid previously in the back of the oven is now in the front. Lower the oven temperature to 350 degrees F, and bake about 15-20 minutes more, or until golden brown. Cool and serve the braid either still warm from the oven or at room temperature. The cooled braid can be wrapped airtight and stored in the refrigerator for up to 2 days, or freeze for 1 month.

Blasted modernity. They were nicer than the photographed ones you say? They must have been out of this world nice. Thanks for a satisfying and fun DB challenge!

Ben, I'm so glad I got to meet you when we baked this together and thanks for a such a fun challenge!! Looking forward to more great baking sessions with you and the rest of the gang.
I'm blushin' ovah heah, Ben. Thanks for steering me away from the challenge I was going to pose. This was a lot of fun, and something I've wanted to make for so very long. With your loss of photos and my loss of the post (and sense of decorum) we really did make quite the time, didn't we? Grins and giggles. Yep! Hugs to you sweet Ben.
Looks wonderful!!! Wish I could say the same about mine, lol.
Thanks for an awesome challenge. It was kinda' rough, but I stuck it out and ended up with something edible. I can't wait to try it again.
Ben, I can't thank you and Kelly enough for a thoroughly fantastic choice this month. Challenging… and very very rewarding. I made it not once but twice… two different weekends.
Your braid looks wonderful! Thanks for the great challenge!
thanks for hosting this month's challenge, it was a great recipe to work with and a first time for me. that stinks about your pictures, but at least you did save 3 of them, and they look gorgeous!
Your braids look wonderful! I bet the mango filling was delicious. Thank you for hosting this month's challenge. I really loved the recipe and will definitely make it again. This was one of my favorite DB recipes!
I decided that since I couldn't manage the cardamom, I wasn't going to join in this month.. I know you posted an alternative, but really… There is no substitute for cardamom!
all these lovely braids are making my sweet tooth ache, though!

I know a kid who gets up at 5 AM to make sure his Advanced Placement math homework is completed on time. He can't do it in the afternoon, because he runs three seasons of track, belongs to a public service club at school, has practice for the school play, practice for the Senior Fashion show (boys model in it, too) and has this demanding mock trial coach who sucks 8-12 hours a week out of the team.
He's not sure if he wants to be a doctor or a lawyer. I could definitely see him as a doctor. He has this calming presence, this Zen. He is just the person you want entering the room when you and your family are in a panic over gushing blood, or a malfunctioning heart, or some other dire condition. He is soft spoken, gentle and empathetic; a perfect combination for a bedside manner.
At one point, I thought maybe he was too gentle a soul for the gladiatorial combat in the well of a courtroom. His cross examination seems so diffident. It seems soft to the point of pointless, unless the witness tries to pull a fast one. Then you watch this poker player's "tell." The head cocks to one side and you can almost hear him thinking, "Oh noooooo, you did NOT just try to lie to MY face!"
Within two strides, he is at counsel table and, without shuffling papers, has already located the witness's "sworn statement" out of the mock trial fact pattern he knows by heart. And then, he guts that opposing witness like a fish. He may be gentle, but he is not soft.
I was stunned to learn a few months ago that this great kid lives in daily fear of deportation. He was brought to this country as a very young child. His parents have been hounded away by ICE. He lives with an older sibling and is essentially raising himself. He is raising himself to be a scholar, an athlete, a philanthropist and a fully engaged participating member of his high school community. He is every college admissions officer's dream. He does this by virtue of his own very high intelligence, his own self discipline and his own gumption. Aging empires desperately need infusions of this kind of strong blood to reinvigorate their flaccid, self-indulgent populations.
There are many boys and girls just like the kid I know. They grew up eating brightly colored, over sugared breakfast cereal and Mac and Cheese from the Kraft blue box. They watched Sesame Street and Nickelodean. They collected baseball cards and played with Barbie Dolls and Cabbage Patch Kids. They learned to skateboard and text in LOLCat-speak. It's that pretty girl with the laughing eyes that has been in the same class with your own daughter since kindergarten, and who was at the pajama party this weekend oohing and ahhing over pictures of prom dresses in magazines.
If you deported these kids and sent them back "home" they would land in an alien culture where they might not even speak the language. Yet, Arizona is going to make people, including I assume kids, produce papers or risk being shipped away. The Maine GOP just produced a new platform that included "sealing the border". The mayor of Albuquerque just announced that there will be an immigration check for every arrest. So, if a good kid is falsely arrested in a case of mistaken identity, won't he still be "outed" as undocumented? Just typing this makes my blood boil.
So, what to do? Well, if you are not in a position to arrange a boycott, I have a suggestion. Call, fax and snail mail both of your Senators and your House Member and tell them to co-sponsor the DREAM Act. The Development, Relief and Education of Alien Minors Act, is the brain child of Dick Durbin and Orrin Hatch.
It allows a path to citizenship for kids who:
1) entered the United States before the age of 16 (i.e. 15 and younger)
2) have been present in the United States for at least five (5) consecutive years prior to enactment of the bill
3 )have graduated from a United States high school, or have obtained a GED, or have been accepted into an institution of higher education (i.e. college/university)
4) are between the ages of 12 and 35
5) show good moral character
There is all kinds of info and organizing tools related to the DREAM Act that can be found here. Don't just get mad, get a DREAM and help create a path to full citizenship for that nice kid at your local high school.

anyone else have a problem with Wilton cupcake liners lately? I just bought some @ Target & they are pulling in on the sides when I put the batter in them....I mean like every one. UUUGGGHH! I never had that happen before, maybe one or two, but not every one. Also one batch totally stuck to the paper liner (could be a baking problem?) I don't know if maybe I'm doing something wrong or if Wilton changed something.

Pedal power | Tamerlaine Beasley
PUBLISHED: 09 May 2013 00:48:29 | UPDATED: 10 May 2013 00:33:29PUBLISHED: 10 May 2013 PRINT EDITION: 10 May 2013Tamerlaine Beasley, the managing director of Beasley Intercultural, has fond memories of cycling as a kid growing up in the country.
Early days
Growing up in the country, riding to school with friends every day was a big part of my life. All the great socialising in high school happened en route to school on bikes.
How many bikes
Three bikes: Giant Anthem x1 for mountain biking, Merida Scultura Evo for road biking, and my beloved old Diamond Back mountain bike with slicks on, for riding with the family and having my seven-year-old daughter on the back on her 'wee rider' half bike on weekends – good training to be hauling 20 kilos. She has pedals of her own but doesn't always use them!
How much
Best not to talk about it. I am trying to maintain the delusion that biking is cheaper than other sports.
Kind of riding
Mountain biking is the strong preference and I do that whenever possible. Have recently started going in races. Twenty-four hour racing is great – I love the night riding, the team vibe and camping. It's pretty hard to beat riding around the bush with hundreds of other people in the middle of the night, especially the downhills. Road riding I am in a local club which is great, Sydney is just too dangerous to ride solo, and they are a lovely bunch of people.
Just do it. I stopped riding for about eight years while having my kids, and was tentative getting back into it, but quickly rediscovered the passion and am hoping my daughters will get into it soon.
Who would you most like to go on a long ride with?
My mum! She's just started riding again after a 30-year break and I'm hoping one day to do the converted rail trails in north-east Victoria together. We went for a first ride together at Christmas, two kilometres for a cup of coffee.
Favourite refuel station
Somewhere with good coffee and friends I've ridden with. That said, mountain biking doesn't tend to have the coffee shop at the end thing like road biking. In the bush, you take your own.
Crashes? Catastrophes? Catharsis?
Have had a few crashes recently. Was trying to master front wheel lifts which can be handy for getting over logs and did a full 180 and landed on my back, which was fairly spectacular and did hurt a fair bit. Read on YouTube later it's better to practice that specific manoeuvre without cleats. Wish I read that first! Had a crash in the Mont 24 on the first 20-kilometre lap and took a fair amount of skin off my shins – no skirts or dresses for a couple of weeks after that one.
How cycling could be improved
It's great to see increasing commitment to cycling infrastructure and more cyclists on the roads, however there is a long way to go. I sometimes think the bike lane budget is dedicated to pots of paint and stencils which are used in the most random and dangerous of places. Anyone responsible for putting those stencils on should have to ride that route with their youngest child on board at peak hour to test out how practical or effective an option it really is.

Brewing Potions
This is a brief overview of brewing; there are many more recipes, which can be found on the Minecraft Wiki.
What you will need
You will only be able to start brewing after you have ventured into The Nether and killed some Blazes and collected some Blaze Rods. Many of the other ingredients you will need come from The Nether too. You should find some Nether Wart and se up a plantation near your Nether Portal so you have a steady supply.
Setting Up Your Brewing Area
Brewing Stand
Make a Brewing Stand out of a Blaze Rod and cobblestone. You will want to place it somewhere you have storage and a nearby water supply.
Optional: make a cauldron to hold water to fill your bottles. This is not necessary if you have a well nearby. A cauldron can be filled with a water bucket, and will hold sufficient water to make 3 potions.
Make some glass bottles for your potions.
The Brewing Process
Fill up three glass bottles with water, by right-clicking on either a filled cauldron or a water source block. Water Bottles will appear elsewhere in your inventory, so make sure you have three spaces available.
Step 1
When you right-click on your Brewing Stand, the brewing interface will open.
Place the water-bottles in the bottom three spaces and an ingredient in the top. If the ingredient is of the right type, the brewing process will start:
When the brewing is completed (it takes 20 seconds), your water bottles will have been turned into potions! Not useful potions though.
Step 2
It's time to add a second ingredient. This ingredient will determine what kind of potion you are making.
When this step has finished, you will have a useable potion.
Step 3
Further brewing steps can be used to make a stronger potion, or a splash potion that can be thrown at friends or enemies.
Useful Potions
This is an overview of how to brew some of the most useful potions. There is much more information available on the Minecraft Wiki.
Awkward Potion
Awkward potion doesn't do anything, but it is the first step to make any of the other useful potions. Awkward potion is made by using Netherwart in Step 1.
Potions of Healing
These restore health when you drink them. Use Glistering Melon in Step 2. They can be made stronger by using Glowstone in Step 3.
Potion of Regeneration
Restores health over time. Useful in tough fights against multiple foes. Use a Ghast Tear in Step 2. In step 3, you can make it last longer with Redstone, or make it more powerful using Glowstone.
Potion of Fire Resistance
Drink this and you are immune to fire. Use Magma Cream in Step 2 and use Redstone in Step 3 to make a longer-lasting version.
Potion of Strength
Makes your attacks more powerful. The ingredient for Step 2 is Blaze Powder. In step 3, you can make it last longer with Redstone, or make it more powerful using Glowstone.
Splash Potions
Splash potions are made by adding gunpowder to a normal potion. Splash potions have a differently-shaped bottle, and can be thrown at a target.
A splash potion of healing will heal an ally (such as your pet wolf) if thrown, but more usefully will hurt undead enemies such as skeletons, zombies and zombie pigmen.
A splash potion of harming can be made by adding a fermented spider's eye to a splash potion of healing, and is extremely useful for killing large numbers of farm animals. It will also harm most hostile mobs, but will heal undead ones such as skeletons and zombies.
Recipes for some of the strange ingredients used in potion brewing.
Magma Cream
This uses a slime-ball and blaze dust.
Glistering Melon
Make this with a slice of melon and a gold nugget (obtained by killing Zombie Pigmen or by crafting from gold bars).
Fermented Spider's Eye
This icky ingredient can be used to turn most kinds of 'good' potions into 'bad' ones with the opposite effect. The components can be arranged in any shape, so you can make this in the 2x2 grid in your inventory screen.
Here are the recipes for the most useful potions.

Aw I think I used to have a tv very similar to that (it was my grandma's first). I used to lie on the floor and fiddle with the handle things at the bottom with my feet. I miss the sound it made. Also those old school tvs make great stereo holders.
wow, good shot man -
awesome colors.

Is Your Dairy Toxic?
Dairy products are one of the most common foods consumed around the world. Some cultures survive on diets consisting of up to 80% raw cow, goat, &/or sheep milk. In the western world, however, dairy has become one of the most inflammatory foods. A recent discovery shows that a genetic shift in the casein molecule has produced a powerful toxin linked to numerous disorders and diseases.
Milk contains two primary protein molecules: whey and casein. Casein makes up about 80% of the protein in the milk. Casein is made up of 209 amino acids strung together in sequence. The 2 primary forms of casein are: A1 Beta Casein and A2 Beta Casein. These 2 are nearly identical in structure except for the amino acid at position 67. A1 contains histidine while A2 contains proline.
The bond between histidine and its linked amino acids is much weaker and much more easily broken than the bonding of proline in A2. This splitting happens during the digestive process and creates a peptide called beta casomorphin 7 (BCM7). BCM7 is an opioid which gives it morphine-like qualities. This creates rampant oxidative stress in the gut and blood stream.
BCM7 is Highly Toxic:
BCM7 is a 7 amino acid peptide that is resistant to degradation. It takes very strong immune responses to break this molecule down effectively. This immune response often takes place in the gut and causes digestive distress and leaky gut syndrome. The most susceptible individuals are those who already have digestive problems and infants who naturally have increased intestinal permeability.
When BCM7 passes into the bloodstream it is able to cross through the blood brain barrier. In the brain, it can bind to opioid receptors and causes symptoms of schizophrenia, autism, and other mood and neurodevelopmental issues. Research performed on rats has shown autistic and schizophrenic type behavioral changes after the rats were injected with BCM7.
A1 beta casein and its byproduct BCM7 have also been linked to cases of type I diabetes, digestive disorders, neurodegenerative disorders and heart disease. These issues have the most supportive evidence linking them to A1 beta casein. This does not mean that A1 beta casein isn't associated with other health disorders as well.
Avoiding A1 Beta Casein:
It can be quite challenging to enjoy dairy products and avoid A1 Beta Casein in the western hemisphere. You certainly have to look for specific breeds of cow that will not be labeled at the grocery store. A1 beta casein is produced by cattle belonging to the Bos Taurus subspecies which is the primary breed of cattle in the western hemisphere. The Guernsey breeds produce only about 10% of their beta casein as A1 while the Jersey breed produces about 35%. The Ayrshire, Holstein, and Fresian breeds tend to produce 50% or more.
The Right Type of Dairy:
Goats do not produce A1 beta casein making their milk and dairy products. The "land of milk and honey" that was described in the bible is thought to be a reference to raw, goat milk and raw honey. Raw milk from grass-fed animals without A1 beta casein has a number of amazing health benefits due to the healthy omega 6:3 ratios, conjugated linoleic acid, and other immune supportive properties.
Organic butter from a grass-fed cow is still very healthy regardless of the breed of cow because it contains little to no protein. Research has found that cheese, yogurt, and fermented milk products from A1 beta casein containing breeds produce around the same amount of BCM7 as regular milk. These products should only be consumed from breeds of cow that produce very little A1 beta casein or none at all.
Due to this new understanding of the damaging effects of BCM7 some farmers are taking the necessary steps to breed cows in a specific manner to eliminate A1 beta casein from their dairy products. If you wish to consume dairy products it is extremely important to support these farming practices.
Beyond Organic Products:
This is why I am so excited about Beyond Organic products. My friend Jordan Rubin has specialized breeds of dairy cows that do not produce Beta A1 casein. He has them on a 100% green-fed diet and the pasteurization process never goes over the cows natural body temperature. This maintains the integrity of the proteins and enzymes.
He has 2 incredible products: Amasai – a super probiotic drink that tastes amazing. Really Raw Cheese – that is loaded with CLA, Whey Protein, and high quality long-chain omega-3 fatty acids. Best of all, these foods taste amazing…you will not want to stop eating them! You can also get grass-fed goat and sheeps dairy which is naturally free of Beta Casein A1 and their are some other farms that are now claiming to produce A2 dairy. Hopefully as the word gets out there will be many others!

Antichrist is relentlessly and solely focused on a married couple, played by Willem Dafoe and Charlotte Gainsbourg. As we learn in a rather pretentious prologue shot in slow-motion and black-and-white, their toddler son has fallen to his death through an open window while they were making love. Bereft, they retreat to Eden, their ironically named cabin in the woods, to recuperate from their loss. At this point, von Trier switches to color and his signature chapter headings. The fact that the first three are "Pain," "Grief" and "Despair" does not bode well.
In discussing this self-styled "most important film of my career," von Trier has referred to the forbidding Swedish playwright August Strindberg. Clearly, or rather not so clearly, von Trier is working in a full-out symbolic vein here, as did Strindberg late in his career, but alas, the film medium inevitably carries with it, like an albatross, a heavy charge of realism. Hence, many of von Trier's more outrageous, ultra-serious symbolic moments (such as a talking fox, its guts half ripped out, muttering "chaos reigns" in an "Exorcist" voice) will—and did, in the press screening—undoubtedly provoke unintended laughter. Or horror, as when genitals are scissored off, masturbation produces blood rather than semen and holes are drilled into legs.
The film's most successful thematic confrontation is that between frail reason (embodied in the pathetic, infantilizing attempt by the husband, who's a psychotherapist, to treat his deeply disturbed wife with cognitive therapy) and the uncontrollable forces of emotion and mystery that emerge victorious.
Another powerful idea, that nature is cruel and vicious and completely antithetical to human welfare, seems to align von Trier with the German visionary director Werner Herzog. ("Nature is Satan's church," the wife utters apocalyptically at one point.) This focus on nature subsequently gets conflated with human nature and finally with female nature, where von Trier's career-long misogyny comes into fullest bloom. In any case, all the ideas of the film are so extravagantly and feverishly expressed that one fears that von Trier, always working on the edge, has finally become unhinged.
The film works much better on a purely visual level, if only viewers were able to forget that these are real people being represented in these voluptuous images, abetted by an often superb sound design. From the opening titles, abstract expressionism reigns powerfully and conveys a great deal of intense, if finally unspecifiable, meaning. Unfortunately, at some point a story has to be told, no matter how minimalist, and with actual human beings, no matter how symbolically freighted. This is where the film falls apart.

The government held a competition that effectively asked the generic companies to indicate the lowest price at which they would sell a particular drug to the pharmacies. The one or two companies with the lowest price would win the government business for that drug. One of the drugs was ranitidine, a drug to treat ulcers and heartburn, which was listed on the government's formulary at 40 cents a pill. Just before the government opened the competition, GlaxoSmithKline Inc., the maker of Zantac, the brand-name version of ranitidine, dropped its price to 18 cents per pill. Stevenson says the generics never bid. According to the retired executive, it would have angered their customers and led to a lowest-price-wins market that would have dug into profits. With no bids from the generics, the government halted the competition and accepted GSK's price. Then, the government surveyed 150 pharmacists to see whether they were actually offering Zantac. Yet, according to Stevenson, many pharmacies did not stock it. It's not hard to understand why: it's far more profitable to sell a generic drug with a rebate than a brand-name drug that doesn't have one.
I suppose pharmacists, while they are professionals, have no fiduciary duty to their clients so this is hardly surprising.
<OT>Feel free to draw parallels to mutual fund salespeople who have no fiduciary duty to their clients either and are busy lobbying the Ontario government to keep things that way.</OT>

It's been a big time for childhood nostalgia for me at the movies this summer with the beloved toys of my youth, Transformers and G.I. Joe, each making an appearance at the local movie theater. This stroll down memory lane continues with the 3-D animated adaption of the children's book "Cloudy With a Chance of Meatballs" by Judi and Ron Barrett.
The film tells the tale of a hapless scientist and inventor named Flint Lockwood (voiced by Bill Hader). A series of catastrophic failures in his inventions have earned him the ire of the town, especially local police officer Earl Devereaux (Mr. T). Flint is now struggling to come up with an idea that will win him the love and respect of the town and more importantly, his father (James Caan). Flint thinks he's done it when he creates a device that can transform water into any type of food. He hopes this will allow the town to replace their current sardine-based diet with a far tastier one.
However, after an accident while powering up the machine, it ends up suspended in a bank of rain clouds overhead, causing cheeseburgers to fall from the sky. When Flint realizes this is an opportunity to impress Sam Sparks (Anna Faris), the cute weather girl sent to cover the phenomenon, he decides to continue the rain of various culinary delights.
The local mayor (Bruce Campbell) also decides to take advantage of things by using the unique situation to restore the failing economy by rebranding the town as the world's newest and most delicious tourist attraction. Everything is fine until the population's rampant demands for specific culinary precipitation cause the machine to malfunction. It begins pummeling the town below with ever-larger items, quickly becoming a danger to everyone. Flint and Sam are forced to find a way to shut down the machine before the whole town is crushed under a flood of oversized corn on the cob and pizza slices.
With this premise, the film works quite well as children's entertainment. However, those who like to chew thoughtfully on their cinematic fare will discover that there is far more to it than mere marshmallow fluff.
Some rather mature underlying themes are presented by the story. Numerous questions relevant to our own society are raised. Some of these points include the true side effects of cheap, abundant and unhealthy food, the importance of controlling portion sizes, and the blame everyone in society shares when we allow food to become overly important. There's also a surprisingly strong and quite refreshing message of nerd pride throughout the film.
There's an inspired moment in which Flint plays a humorous Internet video on his computer featuring a cartoon cat using a turntable to play rap group Public Enemy's anti-authoritarian anthem "Fight the Power." This sums the movie up beautifully, a thick topping of cuteness and laughs over serious social commentary. "Cloudy" truly is a movie that can be enjoyed on a variety of levels, by parents and children alike.

The Delaware Art Museum's popular outreach program, Art Excursions, engages youth throughout the region with the Museum. Art Excursions are held at local libraries, Head Start centers, and public, private, and charter schools. For students in pre-K through Grade 5, we seek to introduce each class to the museum world as well as to the Delaware Art Museum's permanent collection and special exhibitions. Presentations engage youth in interactive exercises that help them experience art in a personal way, encouraging exploration, discovery and multiple ways of identifying with a work of art.For more information about program themes or scheduling an outreach visit, click here or send an e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com. |
Meet the Museum!
Discover the role an art museum plays in the community and the importance of artists who document the human experience. Students will review the many responsibilities of Museum staff, learn different museum and art terms, and discuss the importance of museum manners. This program is a great pre-visit activity for a class planning a field trip to the Delaware Art Museum.
The Artist's Language
Artists use line, color, texture, and shape to create their works. This program will discuss these basic elements of design and how they work together as a visual language. Students will learn how artists use color to convey mood and will be able to differentiate between organic and geometric shapes.
Glory of Stories (for pre-K – Grade 2)
This fun and interactive program invites students to listen to a story, discuss two or three works of art, and complete a simple art project. Books include My Many Colored Days (Dr. Seuss), Chameleon's Colors (Chisato Tashiro), A Piece of Chalk (Jennifer A. Ericsson), The Big Orange Splot (D. Manus Pinkwater), Roger the Jolly Pirate (Brett Helquist), and Mouse Paint (Ellen Stoll Walsh).
Face to Face
What can you learn from a portrait? A portrait can tell us a great deal about the life and times of the subject. This program informs students on the genre of portraiture, discussing various uses of a portrait and how the artist presents the subject using surroundings, clothing, facial expressions, and gesture.
Painting with Words
Language Arts and Visual Arts come together in this fun program! Using art as a springboard, students build their vocabularies and stretch their imaginations by creating poems or stories. The class will also be introduced to the Museum?s interactive website, The Art of Storytelling: www.artofstorytelling.org.
* Each program is approximately 60 minutes in length and includes an art or writing activity. The content (both artwork and information) of each program offering will be adjusted according to the age & learning level of the audience. Each program will use technology. Museum staff will bring a digital projector and laptop to the classroom. School/Organization must be able to provide a screen and extension cord.
One Time Visit | Within 50 miles of the Museum | $80 |
Beyond 50 miles of the Museum | $120 | |
Multiple Presentations* | Within 50 miles of the Museum | $80 for first presentation of day; $40 each for subsequent presentations |
Beyond 50 miles of the Museum | $120 for first presentation of the day; $60 each for subsequent presentations |
*For groups that would like to schedule multiple presentations on one day, there is a 50% discount for each subsequent presentation.
If you would like to schedule an outreach presentation, click here, download a PDF version here, or send an e-mail email@example.com.
"This was a very enriching experience for our students which further solidified their knowledge of the elements of art and how they are used in art pieces. It also gave them a taste of the Museum without having actually physically going to the Museum. EXCELLENT presentation."
"I enjoyed the presentation and my students were engaged and interested in learning more about the artwork!"
This program is made possible by Delaware Art Museum Council and Target.

Ok is there some deck guru out there that can answer this for me. I want to do Fiberon Horizon decking on my new home. I'm doing a mostly (all but 1.5') covered deck in the very rainy climate of Oregon. The deck is being constructed using a waterproof system (uh theres probably a better name for this) where there is a waterproof membrane and a sleeper system above it. Come to find out Fiberon wants to dictate 6" or clearance underneath their line of decking..and we don't have it with this type of install. So my question is...why does Fiberon require so much darn space under their capped composite product when something like Earthwood Evolutions (Timbertech) says they just require a minimum of a 2" (There must be a minimum of a 2" (nominal) sleeper system supported by and connected to the substructure over which the deck is to be built.) Am I missing something obvious? I know which deck product I want and like the look of but I don't want to void my warranty right out the gate >< |

Hong Kong Airport's cargo grows in May
Hong Kong International Airport handled almost 2 percent more cargo in May than the year before.
HKIA handled 339,000 tonnes of cargo, an increase of 1.8 percent. Flight movements set a new monthly record of 31,040, a 6.1 percent increase compared to the same month in 2012.
The growth in cargo throughput was driven by exports and transshipments, which were up 1 percent and 4 percent, respectively, from a year ago. During the month, cargo throughput to and from North America outperformed other regions.
"We are delighted that monthly flight movement has reached a new record high, beating the previous record of 30,799 set in December 2012," Stanley Hui Hon-chung, CEO of the Airport Authority Hong Kong, said. "Although increasing demand is posing greater challenges, HKIA is dedicated to maintaining our high service standards."
During the first five months of 2013, cargo volume also grew 2.2 percent to 1.6 million tonnes. Flight movements reached 150,080, an increase of 4.6 percent compared with the same period last year.
On a rolling 12-month basis, cargo volume of nearly 4.06 million tonnes was recorded, representing 3.5 percent growth. Flight movements rose by 4.8 percent year over year to 358,290.

Power issues cause phone, Internet outages
07/07/2013Low voltage in electrical power being supplied to the Edinboro campus caused university phones to be out of service through much of the evening Saturday and Internet service to remain unavailable overnight.
As of midday Sunday, phone and Internet services were functioning, though some parts of campus were operating on generators because electrical voltage from Penelec continued to be intermittently low. The Banner database server was shut down to protect it until the power issues are corrected, a spokesperson for University Technology & Communications said.
Edinboro University has backup power supplies and automatic switching equipment, but those did not prevent computer servers from being taken out of service by the power disruption on Saturday. Phone service was restored late in the evening, but damage to the Internet router required overnight shipment of parts that kept the University website offline and email unavailable until Sunday morning.
Students, faculty and staff who have continued technical issues should contact the Technology Help Center at 732-2111. The center is open Sunday from 1 to 8 p.m. and Monday through Thursday from 7:30 a.m. to 9 p.m.

CAD-CAM Dentistry
Crowns, Inlays, Onlays and Veneers Fabricated in house with our CAD/CAM System for FAST Turnaround!!
Our office is pleased to incorporate a revolutionary advanced system for taking x-rays....Digital Radiography. Digital Radiography is a computerized imaging system that utilizes an electronic sensor where dentists would normally use film. The sensors produce sharp and clear x-ray images that appear almost instantly on a computer monitor. This system enables us to increase our diagnostic capabilities while using up to 90% less radiation than conventional film x-rays. Benifiel Dentistry is completely digital featuring both intra-oral and panoramic digital imaging!!
Benifiel Dentistry utilizes a soft tissue laser which allows us to do many soft tissue procedures with less post operative pain and faster healing for the patient.
Modern dental science now brings us a way to diagnose decay in the pits and fissures of teeth more accurately than ever before. In the past we have relied on the dental explorer to diagnose decay. When the explorer would "stick" in the tooth, we diagnosed this as a decayed area. Unfortunately, by the time this happens, the decay had already progressed. The new Diagnodent uses a laser at 655 nm to fluoresce decay and provide a digital reading showing the degree of the decay. Healthy tooth structure does not fluoresce. This new technology enables us to diagnose and treat decay in its infancy keeping restoration size to a minimum. It also allows us to place preventative sealants in teeth displaying decay beginning in the outer enamel
Our office practices the philosophy of "Minimal Invasive Dentistry". We use materials and techniques that are the least invasive and which strengthen and preserve as much of the tooth's structure as possible.
One of these techniques is Air Abrasion or the "drill-less" dentistry system. Air Abrasion is a state of the art instrument which uses minute alpha alumina particles carried by a stream of air which gently and conservatively spray away decay. This system allows us to treat decay at an earlier stage without much tooth removal. Air Abrasion produces no heat or vibration so it can often be used without dental anesthetics. Instead of the whine of the dental drill, all you hear is a blowing sound similar to an air brush or aerosol can being sprayed.
To learn more about Air Abrasion, contact our office for a free brochure.
We are pleased to bring you the first major advance in local anesthetic delivery since the syringe was invented more than 150 years ago: The Wand by Milestone Scientific. The Wand is a computer controlled anesthetic device that controls the flow of anesthetic into tissue. By regulating the flow of anesthetic into tissue, the perception of pain caused by tissue pressure is greatly reduced producing a near painless injection. It is visually non-threatening in appearance, thus reducing patient anxiety and fear. The device creates an anesthetic pathway that ensures the most comfortable needle insertion possible. New site specific techniques can be used thus eliminating facial numbness in some areas and greatly reducing the amount of anesthetic used.

Nadar French, December 1856 Salt print 7 15/16 x 6 1/8 in. 84.XM.436.397
Nadar very much admired the lawyer and politician, Adolphe (Isaac-Moïse) Crémieux, whose political views often coincided with his own. Crémieux was sixty when he sat for Nadar in December of 1856 and, as an opponent of Napoleon III like Nadar, temporarily inactive in politics. Nadar began the sitting, the only one which he ever described in detail, by talking and laughing with Crémieux while placing him in the best light and adjusting the lens. Nadar seems to have placed the camera slightly lower than the subject's eye level, giving him added stature. Crémieux's contemporaries thought the sitter peculiar in both appearance and manner, although his wife disagreed, insisting that Nadar agree with her that her husband was handsome. At least in retrospect the photographer agreed, finding the man beautiful in the tenderness he inspired and merited but more truly--if unconventionally--beautiful because of his "superior intelligence, infinite goodness, perpetual forbearance, love of justice, and above all the inalterable serenity of his pure conscience." Nadar offered this kind of oval print, an edition print, for sale in his studio. Along with his portrait of Madame Crémieux, this image is exceptional in part because more is known about the circumstances of its making than any of Nadar's other portraits.

It was no laughing matter when the Cleveland Indians pitcher that we knew as Fausto Carmona was caught earlier this year on identity theft charges in the Dominican Republic. It turns out that the 28 year old Carmona was actually 31 year old Roberto Hernandez.
Following his arrest, confession, suspension and the restructuring of a contract that cost the pitcher millions of dollars, Hernandez made his return to the Indians club house on Sunday. His teammates turned what might have otherwise been an awkward moment into a humorous one by welcoming him with three birthday cakes. One was for 29 year old Fausto, another for 30 year old Fausto, and finally one for 31 year old Roberto.
While presumably grateful for their lighthearted take on the serious issue, Hernandez made a point of apologizing to his teammates.
I want to say I'm sorry. I thank God I am here and have been given a new chance.
Hernandez will remain suspended by Major League Baseball until August 11th, but in the meantime, the pitcher will begin a minor league rehab assignment later this week.

Hi! I have a set of large dieffenbachias that I propagated from a plant too big to move. The ones I rooted up in water are doing fine, but the ones I rooted up in soil have some kind of recurring infection at the cut. Every few months, the cut gets mushy and dies back a node or two, but then the infection stabilizes and scabs over. (The one in the photo has just scabbed back over.) Any ideas what I could be doing to keep the infection from recurring? More information: The soil was new and sterile when I planted the cane, and I cleaned the knife with alcohol before cutting the cane. The plants spent some time outside last summer, inside in a slightly shaded south window, and inside in a bright west window. The inside air has been pretty dry this winter. I tend to let them dry out a bit between waterings, but not let them go bone-dry, but since the infection restarted I've been watering them less. At first I suspected that the infection was erwinia rot, but now I'm not totally sure-- I recently lost one of these dieffenbachia cuttings to an infection that was DEFINITELY erwinia, and that infection had a distinctive smell and spread rapidly throughout the stem from the soil line. Not only am I worried about salvaging these cuttings, I'm worried about the prospect of transferring my water-rooted cuttings to soil. Are they just going to pick up the same infection? Thanks for any thoughts! |
Follow-Up Postings:
Just throwing out some ideas, maybe you can dust the tops with sulphur and then seal the cuts with wax. I've seen some scabs become mushy again because water got inside. A scab can crack and even a little moisture will start to rot out the stock. I've never sealed anything with wax but I'm sure there are people on here who have that can advise you. |
