Naturally Obsessed – one of the best science documentaries I've seen
Friday, August 19, 2011
Naturally Obsessed What a sad, amazing, inspiring, and tragic look at the way science is actually conducted. This is how the pictures in the text books are made. We forget the human element behind it all. Also notice that this PI unwittingly – I can only hope – forces three grad students to race to a single endpoint.

Meet the Scientists in the lab
Wednesday, August 17, 2011
My name is Matt Browne and I have been working in the JKW lab this summer. I am a rising junior at James I. O'Neill High School in Highland Falls and I live right here in wonderful West Point. Along with my laboratory compadres, I have been studying the effects that weapons contaminants have on the gene expression of several organisms, namely E. Coli and B. subtilis. My work in the lab includes bacterial culturing procedures, RNA and DNA extraction techniques, gel electrophoresis, reverse transcription to create cDNA from RNA, PCR and quantitative PCR, and world-champion level pipette skills. My favorite aspect of working in the lab is being able to come into an environment where I am always provided the opportunity to solve problems and really work out my critical thinking skills.

Meet the scientists of JKW Lab
Tuesday, August 9, 2011
Hi my name is Hannah Lachance and I am a laboratory technician in the JKW lab. The main project I am working on involves studying how organisms such as E. coli and B. subtilis react to RDX exposure.
Techniques I use in these experiments includes growing cell cultures in various mediums, extracting RNA and DNA, running reverse transcriptions in order to obtain cDNA, using organism specific primers to run PCR and QPCR and performing gel electrophoresis. I highly enjoy working in the lab because it helps reinforce all that I have learned in school in a very practical and meaningful way. In addition, I get to work with amazing people and have fun while learning and accumulating valuable skills.

Stem cells constitute the source of differentiated cells for the generation of tissues during development, and for regeneration of tissues that are diseased or injured postnatally. In recent years, stem cell research has grown exponentially owing to the recognition that stem cell-based therapies have the potential to improve the life of patients with conditions that span from Alzheimer's disease to cardiac ischemia to bone or tooth loss. Growing evidence demonstrates that stem cells are primarily found in niches and that certain tissues contain more stem cells than others. Among these tissues, the dental pulp is considered a rich source of mesenchymal stem cells that are suitable for tissue engineering applications. It is known that dental pulp stem cells have the potential to differentiate into several cell types, including odontoblasts, neural progenitors, osteoblasts, chondrocytes, and adipocytes. The dental pulp stem cells are highly proliferative. This characteristic facilitates ex vivo expansion and enhances the translational potential of these cells. Notably, the dental pulp is arguably the most accessible source of postnatal stem cells. Collectively, the multipotency, high proliferation rates, and accessibility make the dental pulp an attractive source of mesenchymal stem cells for tissue regeneration. This review discusses fundamental concepts of stem cell biology and tissue engineering within the context of regenerative dentistry.

Cranberry Coconut Power Bars
Posted on August 26, 2013
Harness the power of coconut butter, hemp seed, flax meal and dried cranberries in this Paleo power bar.
Cranberry Coconut Power Bars are not only gluten-free and grain-free, they are nut-free to boot. Eat them after you go to your CrossFit workout, or if you're more of a middle aged woman such as myself who prefers sleep to exercise, eat them after a long walk in the foothills, or a restorative yoga class.
I'm using Steve's unsweetened dried cranberries for this recipe, […]
Lemon Basil Cookies
Posted on July 17, 2013
Pick some of the fresh basil that's exploding in your garden for these zesty grain-free herb-flecked cookies.
I based this recipe (and photo) on one from Bon Appetit for Lemon-Lime Basil Shortbread Cookies. As you might expect, these are gluten-free, grain-free, sugar-free, dairy-free cookies. I used the same flavor profile as the Bon Appetit recipe, though decided not to make mine a shortbread cookie.
I've used coconut butter as the fat in this cookie recipe, which I learned to do from Jessica […]
Dark Chocolate Truffles
Posted on July 8, 2013
Melt-in-your-mouth dark chocolate truffles flavored with bioflavanoid-rich orange zest.
These fantastically healthy dark chocolate truffles are full of antioxidant rich cacao powder and sweetened with honey and just a bit of vanilla stevia, which leaves a lot of room for the other flavors to come through.
Although I experimented and made these truffles with vanilla and raspberry, I ended up loving orange the best. I think orange zest and dark chocolate are a wonderful flavor combination.

Mint Chip Truffles
Posted on September 11, 2012
Gluten free dairy free Mint Chip Truffles are full of healthy fats to keep your motor running.
These low-carb healthy Mint Chip Truffles are a fantastic Paleo snack. In fact, I love to eat them right after I work out (my workouts, which I do several times per week are long walks, very light weight lifting, Pilates and yoga). However, they're also the perfect post workout snack for high-intensity athletes such as CrossFitters.
On top of that? They're a great Paleo dessert […]
Raw Chocolate Fudge
Posted on May 23, 2008
A few of my favorite things? Coaching baseball. Growing vegetables. Walking on a sunny day. Hanging with my husband late at night after the boys have gone to bed. Cooking with children –of any age.
Recently I have had the opportunity to teach cooking to my son's third grade class. This has been great fun. I get a real glimpse of each child and his or her temperament when we cook together –in the […]

Abstract | Among topics discussed: Bedford-Pine; Model Cities; Tom Cousins; John Portman; World Congress Center; Frank Carter; Joel Cowan; Phipps Land Company; Larry Gellerstedt; Harold Brockey. |
Biographical note | Sweat was born in 1933 in Waycross, Georgia. He graduated from Georgia State College (later Georgia State University) in 1957 with a degree in public administration. He married his wife Tally in 1956, and they had three children and several grandchildren. Sweat covered the Fulton County courthouse for the Atlanta Journal while still in college. In 1957 he entered the Navy, where his commander allowed him to attend Seventh Fleet scheduling conferences. Sweat later returned to Atlanta, and the Journal, but later took at job as information director at DeKalb County. County Commission chairman Charles O. Emmerich took Sweat under his wing, but lost his reelection bid in 1964. Emmerich then took a job with Economic Opportunity Atlanta, a new federal anti-poverty program, and took Sweat with him. Sweat earned a reputation as a master at getting federal grants. Atlanta Mayor Ivan Allen, Jr. eventually offered Sweat a position at City Hall. Sweat took a job in 1966 as director of government liaison, charged with bringing as much federal money to Atlanta as possible. Eventually Allen promoted Sweat to chief administrative officer in August of 1969. Sweat kept the same job under Mayor Sam Massell, who succeeded Allen. He coordinated Atlanta's War on Poverty and Model Cities programs during his tenure at City Hall. Sweat also played a role in the naming of the first two black department heads in city government. Sweat left City Hall in late 1971, and early the next year took a job as executive director of the Atlanta Regional Commission. He was involved in establishing the Chattahoochee River Corridor, and helped the commission survive its initial court challenges. In 1973, Sweat became president of Central Atlanta Progress. In that role he represented downtown business interests, and gained the reputation as a major power broker in Atlanta. Sweat bridged the gap between new black political power at City Hall and the white downtown business establishment. He was involved in numerous high profile downtown projects, including the redevelopment of both Underground Atlanta and the Bedford Pines neighborhood. Sweat left CAP in 1988 and took a job with the CF Foundation, a philanthropic organization affiliated with developer Thomas G. Cousins. In 1991, former President Jimmy Carter appointed Sweat coordinator of the Atlanta Project. Sweat helped raise $14 million in his first year on the job. He left in 1995. These interviews were conducted during an illness that resulted in Sweat's death in 1997. His condition during the interviews had an impact on the content, length, and structure of the interviews. |

FHSU tennis drops pair of MIAA outings
Published on -4/13/2014, 6:31 AM

E-Mail This Story
Camille Caron-Bedard, a junior on the Fort Hays State University women's tennis team, has had a long month of recovery after spraining the inside arch of her right foot.
Before this weekend, the team's top singles player last played March 15 at Missouri Western. Caron-Bedard missed seven consecutive matches since, a streak that finally ended on Friday when she took the court against Emporia State University and again Saturday against Washburn University.
"It was great having Cami back in the lineup for both days. She practiced a little on Thursday and said she was going to give it a go," FHSU tennis coach Brian Flax said. "I'd probably put her about 80 percent right now. But just having her in the lineup, you can see the team was a little more fired up."
Unfortunately, 80 percent wasn't enough, as the Tigers lost both matches 8-1 at the FHSU tennis courts in MIAA contests. The losses send Fort Hays to 7-10 overall, and 2-7 in MIAA play with a trip to Nebraska-Kearney on Monday the only remaining conference match.
The top eight conference teams advance to the MIAA Championships in Springfield, Mo., which begins April 25. The loss to Washburn proved especially painful for the Tigers, as the Ichabods had entered Saturday with only one conference win.
"We thought we matched up well with them. They've been having some hard times as well," Flax said. "We got one out of three in the doubles, which really kept us in there, but singles wise, they just were able to hold us off. We had a lot of games that were close and we made a silly mistake."
Fort Hays was swept in Saturday's singles competition, including a 6-0, 6-3 loss for Caron-Bedard to Washburn's No. 1, Casyn Buchman. The only win came in the No. 2 doubles match, where FHSU junior Brittney Ricci and freshman Katie Hipp defeated Washburn's Kirsten Holle and Gwen Shepler, 8-6.
Friday's results against Emporia State (15-5, 7-2 MIAA), ranked No. 9 in the region, were nearly identical to Saturday, with Ricci and Hipp getting the only win for the Tigers' in the No. 2 doubles competition.
"Brittney is very intense and that kind of gets Katie's intensity up. So yeah, those two have been playing well," Flax said. "We feel good about the level we are playing; we've just played some teams that have another level. Being in your conference stretch and to have injuries and sickness, that's never a good thing."
On top of Caron-Bedard's foot and other minor bumps and bruises from other players, freshman McKenzie Haynes had also missed some time before returning this weekend because of illness. Haynes is the other half of the team's No. 1 doubles duo with Caron-Bedard.
But if there is a silver lining, Flax can find it in the team's youth, something that came to mind on Saturday in what would have been senior day for the Tigers, only there aren't any seniors on the seven-player roster.
"What injuries and what illness do is they force kids to step up and get in the lineup that maybe wouldn't get that opportunity. The growth of our four freshmen kids from the start of the fall to now is just unbelievable," Flax said.
"I know a bunch of them are hurting with little, nagging injuries. It's just that time of the year. But I expect them to play hard all the time and to this point, I can't tell you a match that the kids have not played hard. They have pride in themselves."
The Tigers sit at ninth in the MIAA heading into Monday's conference finale with Kearney (18-5, 6-3), a half game back of Washburn. Washburn still has matches against Missouri Western State and Northwest Missouri State left on its conference schedule.
FHSU wraps up its regular season schedule with a trip to Newman University in Wichita next Saturday.

Interview by Rachel Jablonski
Food Fight
March 12, 2003
Approximately 3pm
I'm scheduled to interview Sam, the drummer of COLD, at the Ranch Bowl in Omaha, NE where the band is set to play an intimate, exclusive show previewing their upcoming release The Year of the Spider a few hours following. Accompanied by my sister, we explore the show room where the roadies are working hard to set up the stage while waiting for our interviewee.
Approximately 3:05pm
I notice half of an uneaten sandwich sitting perfectly in a container on the edge of the right side of the stage. My glance is brief and my eyes quickly wander to the Oleander poster over on the wall.
Approximately 3:07pm
"I saw you eyeing my sandwich," a roadie says, "don't even think about it."
I laugh and reply, "You're right I was, I guess I'm hungry."
An intense discussion breaks out about the uneaten sandwich.
"Everyone's freaking over a gas station sandwich!" a second roadie screams throwing his hands up in the air in anguish.
We all laugh though it's difficult to tell whom is truly joking. Food seems to be taken most seriously in this room pre-show.
Approximately 3:12pm
Sam enters. I introduce myself and greet him. The interview begins.
Food for thought: The Interview
Approximately 3:15pm
Rachel: I'm really excited to have the opportunity to see this sneak peak performance from "Year of the Spider." From what I can tell most of these intimate shows are solely midwest dates. Any particular reason for this?
Sam: Um, no I don't think there is. I think this is just how the tour got laid out and we wanted to hit these areas because we do have a really strong fan base in them. We just wanted to, ya know, play small places just to give kind of a sneak preview of the new record. We were going to do a like a record listening party in LA, but it didn't go through because we were getting feedback from our fans that "oh I wish they were coming to our town and doing that" so the tour is kind of like that. We're playing the record every night we play so it's a party with all of our fans. We come out and sign everything and some of the shows have been acoustic and some have been full metal.
Rachel: So will we get a mix of that tonight?
Sam: It could be a mix, yeah.
Rachel: Will you just be playing the new album or will there be some old material as well?
Sam: We play a couple of old songs, but it's mainly the new stuff. In the acoustic set we've been playing "Ugly," but other than that it's mainly old stuff from 13 Ways to Bleed and then the new stuff.
Rachel: Any big tour plans coming up this summer?
Sam: Summer time they're saying Lollapalooza, April 29th we go on tour with Staind. That's when our record's released so that's kind of nice. And then the Lollapalooza, I don't know if that's set, but they're saying we will headline on the second stage. And then we have Marilyn Manson and Godsmack in the fall.
Rachel: That's awesome. Who else is on Lollapalooza that you know of?
Sam: I know that Queens of the Stoneage are and they're fuckin awesome and also Jane's Addiction, which will be rad.
Rachel: Sweet. I've had the chance to check out "Stupid Girl" on the web and it sounds great. What can we expect from this new album overall?
Sam: Um, the new record is just stronger song writing from all of us. We were on tour for 18 months just playing 13 Ways to Bleed on Stage and then when we got in the studio to start writing it was like within 6 months and we had written the whole record and it was almost magical. Every day we were thinking "Year of the Spider" so it turned out really well. When we went to record it with Howard Benson, he just made it sound like we thought the record would sound in our ear. All the instruments just sound so good. The drum sound is the best drum sound I have ever had on a record. He's a great producer and Mike the engineer is awesome too. This is our best record yet. I think the fans are gonna really love this record more than the other two because Scooter really went to a different level with the songs. Everyone can feel this record I think.
Rachel: Any specific direction you took this album as opposed to the other ones?
Sam: From the drum angle, I just wanted to be really big and straight forward like a dump truck being dropped from the sky, something so huge and Howard totally captured that.
Rachel: Ok, so the new album is called Year of the Spider. 13 Ways to Bleed on Stage featured the spider as well. What's the significance? What does "year of the spider" mean?
Sam: The spider became our logo, I came up with the idea. My wife and I had a spider and she took a picture of her doll that had our tarantula, Wednesday, crawling on her face and that was the album cover for our first record, a space odyssey EP COLD did. We didn't really have a logo and we wanted something that everyone could remember our band by. So I thought of the spider and I kept messing around with the spider image and then I have a tattoo friend that just tightened it up perfect and that's what came of the spider. It kind of just describes our music. Our music kind of creeps along like a spider.
Rachel: You guys have been around for awhile now, about to support your third record. What kinds of changes have you made as a band live? What have you stuck with?
Sam: Scooter and I have been in a band together since we were 14 and we just always try to write songs. We try to play for the song. We're not like a band that tries to show off or anything, we just write good songs. We've been doing that for so long. The best thing is just to write music and record it. I mean playing out live is good too, but we just concentrate on the song writing. It's just developed over the years. This record is totally just the best song writing record we've done. I think the next record will go to another level as well.
Rachel: Aaron Lewis did some guest vocals on the last record, any guests or surprise on this new release?
Sam: On the new one River [Cuomo of Weezer] sings [backup and was a co-writer] on "Stupid Girl" and Sierra Swan that sang on "No One" on the last record sings on a song called "Suffocate" and that's it.
Rachel: What are you listening to these days?
Sam: I'm listening to Queens of the Stoneage, Misfits, Clutch, John Spencer and the Blues Explosion, and Kiss.
Rachel: Any unsigned or not as well known bands you've been into lately?
Sam: My wife and I have a band together called Jam Baby so I listen to that a lot.
Rachel: haha Oh yeah? What's that like? What does she do?
Sam: She sings and bows a saw and violin, plays a lot of crazy instruments and percussion stuff. And it's kind of bluesy and dark. It's horror music.
Rachel: That's cool. If you were no longer allowed to wear black or white for the rest of your life what would you wear?
Sam: [long pause] I have no clue. [long pause] Gray?
Rachel: Where's your favorite place to perform?
Sam: I like Texas. Every time we've played in Texas it's been really good.
Rachel: Do you have a particular band you like to play with?
Sam: I think the best tour we've had was with Marilyn Manson. It was cool to see them play every night.
Rachel: Have you made a video for "Stupid Girl" yet?
Sam: Yeah, we made one in Minneapolis and it turned out awesome. A lot of fans came out and they stayed out in the cold weather all day. It has tons of energy. It's the best video we've done insofar as what a COLD show is really like.
Rachel: Any final thoughts? What would you like people to know in general or about the record or anything?
Sam: I hope you all like the record because we worked really hard on it. We made a record that doesn't really have any B-sides so every song we think is good.
Rachel: Thank you so much for your time. I really appreciate it.
Sam: No problem.
Approximately 4pm
Not having eaten all day, my sister and I head out for some dinner and shopping to waste time before the show.
An apple a day keeps COLD away?
Approximately 7:30pm
Two newly bought shirts and a pair of jeans later we head back to the Ranch Bowl in anticipation. My sister notes that the tour bus is gone as we enter the venue. We soon discover from Ranch Bowl personnel that Scooter is ill and was not able to make it through sound check. The band was forced to cancel the show and has rescheduled to play May 6th. The sold out crowd seemed slightly disappointed, understandably so, but definitely handled the setback well. All will surely be in high anticipation COLD's soon return.

Noah & Cassidy get an extra long blog entry because they deserve it for braving the freezing cold. Especially Cassidy. I don't know how she was able to look so warm and comfortable! It was a cold and rather dreary day, but I'm so glad we went ahead with the session. Without further adieu…
Cassidy's hands were so cold!
This picture shows the true temperature of the day. I also feel like it belongs on a Ski Lodge/Resort advertisement. I'm not sure why, but it just has that feel.
Dogs and a field, two of my favorite things!
These pups are definitely lickers.
Just in case you need a closer view:
I love this picture so much. Mostly because I can totally relate to it. I have been licked many-a-time on the nose by my pups. The worst is when they aim for the mouth. Eck!
Happy family to be!
This next part is more of a PSA. The stockyards are not only useful for amazing backgrounds for engagement pictures, oh no my friends, they are also one of Fort Worth's biggest attractions. So if you are new to the area or even if you've lived here your whole life (like myself), it's fun to go. The rodeo/stock show will only be around for a little while longer (mid-Feb?). While I am not a "hardcore" Texan, I will say that I do enjoy the stock show and rodeo. In fact, we're going with my family in a few weeks. Dan and I would really like to move out of the city and onto some land one day, possibly in Colorado, and have a few animals, so part of me enjoys looking at the animals as if we we're actually about to buy a horse, cow, or chickens. HOWEVER, I must tell you that my absolute favorite part about the stock show is the Exhibit Hall, full of random crafts, As-Seen-On-TV items, and crazy salesmen giving away free things and trying to sell you the "World's Best Knife." And yes, as of last year's visit to the stock show, I am a proud owner of the "World's Best Knife." It truly is amazing. If ever we find ourselves in an emergency, we can cut ourselves out of our house. Can't wait to see what this year's great find will be!
I got distracted…ok, to re-cap, the Fort Worth Stockyards are open year-around and are a fabulous place for family portraits, engagement pictures or child portraits but the Stock Show and Rodeo is only here in January and February. The Stock Show itself is enough to fill an entire day, the Rodeo is just an added bonus at the end.

Linden Hills Cottage, Minneapolis
Ken Gutmaker
The Linden Hills Cottage's carefully planned proportions help give it the feeling of an older house, to better fit into its Minneapolis neighborhood.
Rehkamp Larson Architects
The home's upper level floor plan.
"The scale of the pieces and parts is so important," says architect Jean Rehkamp Larson. Case in point: the home's well-detailed entry foyer.
The Custom Home Design Awards judges especially admired the project's light-filled kitchen.
Throughout the house, ceiling beams and trim define spaces within spaces.
Larson tucked one of the home's four bedrooms under the eaves on the second level.
Elevation drawings for the Linden Hills Cottage.
The home's site plan.
The home's lower level floor plan.
The home's main level floor plan.
This 4,200-square-foot house looks smaller from the street than it actually is. Rehkamp Larson Architects configured the front-facing rooflines so that the building appears to be one-and-a-half stories. By doing so, they showed respect for the existing neighborhood's scale. "In the back, it's more of a two-story form," says architect Jean Rehkamp Larson.
The judges particularly noticed the home's millwork, which takes its cue from historic houses but also evinces more modern-day sensibilities. "We were taking older parts and pieces and doing them in a fairly simple way," Larson says. "They're not overly wrought." In a similar transition from old to new, the floor plan's traditional rooms are defined by beams and trim, rather than solid walls.
"The house holds together," said a judge. "It's fun without being silly. And what a great floor plan."

This was entirely inspired by a meal I had in the International Market food court in Waikiki. Really! I ate at this place three times, I just couldn't resist. It may not sound like a very interesting choice, with so many restaurants to choose from. But it worked. If Scarlet decided it was time to run around and climb up and down the nearest stairs - we could do take away, if not we could sit amongst others eating from any number of places serving anything from fish, to Korean BBQ, to coconut smoothies, burgers, Mexican, Thai or Filipino.
The first time I ordered the platter with six shrimp, rice, salad, pineapple wedge and a wonderful pineapple salsa! The second time I ordered the ahi tuna platter - which was similar but there was no pineapple salsa. The third time I ordered the ahi tuna sandwich. I highly recommend eating any of these if you are in the area. So, here is my recreation of or inspiration from the salsa I enjoyed here.
You can use less or more of the other ingredients according to what you prefer. Perhaps you want the red pepper to be more dominant. Or, perhaps you want less or more onion.
I served it made just with the trio of pineapple, red onion and red bell pepper the first time. A spoonful over pan-cooked chicken breasts, alongside steamed broccoli and brown rice was just right. The second time I added a few squeezes of fresh lemon juice and a few tablespoons of chopped cilantro. I served it on steamed sockeye salmon, with broccoli and small potatoes.
The next day I had it like a salad with my lunch:
- 1/2 pineapple, cored, peeled, then finely chopped into cubes
- 1 red bell pepper, cored and chopped into small pieces (about 1/4 inch)
- 2 tablespoons (30 ml) red onion, peeled and finely diced
- 1/2 hot chili pepper, finely chopped (optional)
- 2 to 3 tablespoons (30 to 45 ml) cilantro or mint, finely chopped (optional)
- the juice of 1/2 lemon or lime
- 1 tsp (5 ml) sugar or honey (optional)
Cutting up the pineapple:
Slice the top off of the pineapple, then cut right through the pineapple, so you are left with the top half.
Slice the sides (peel) off of the pineapple. I find it easiest to hold the pineapple upright, and slice downward. After you have worked your way around check for any remaining bits of skin or peel - cut those out.
You can now continue cutting the pineapple into small pieces, as small as you like. You may want to cut out the very centre if it's too fibrous or tough, but I like to try and use as much of it as I can and I like the slightly harder, more fibrous texture. It's up to you!
Slicing the bell pepper:
Slice off the stem of the bell pepper, below the 'shoulder' so you get the root of the stem and expose the ribs inside the pepper. Slice around the stem of the top you have just removed and chop this part into small chunks. Discard the stem.
Set the pepper upright. You may be able to pull out the top part of the core at this point. Either way, slice down the side vertically to open the pepper up. Lay it on it's side with the outside of the skin down, and work your knife around to remove most of the ribs and seeds, while flattening out the pepper. This won't necessarily work for all peppers, some will just break at this point, but it doesn't matter as you are chopping it up anyway!
Slice along the ribs lengthwise as it makes it easier to slice off the remaining bits of ribs. Slice off any remaining part of the ribs.
Slice the now 'clean' pepper into strips lengthwise, then rotate and slice into small pieces.
Other ingredients:
Peel and chop about 1/4 of a red onion, depending on the size - you want to end up with about two tablespoons of the onion when chopped.
If using a hot chili pepper, slice in half crossways.
Slice off the very top or bottom, depending on which you decide to use.
Slice along the middle of this piece lengthwise.
Scrape out the seeds and ribs with your knife and discard.
Finely chop the chili pepper.
Add to the pineapple, red bell pepper and red onion.
Finely chop the cilantro or mint and add to the mixture.
Squeeze the juice of 1/2 a lemon or lime over top.
Add the sugar, if using.
Stir to thoroughly combine. Serve or cover and place in the refrigerator. Will keep several days.

As we reach for our heavy sweaters, jackets and thick socks, piling on the layers to brave the brisk air out there, how often do we think about the origins of the materials we use to bundle up? The local organic food movement has made great strides in recent years, but what about a movement for local organic fiber? Many of us know at least a bit about the contributions that agriculture makes to the accumulation of carbon in the atmosphere and all the havoc that wreaks, but are we aware of the potential of certain rangeland management practices to pull carbon out of the atmosphere? Are we aware of the potential for climate beneficial clothing? Tune in to explore these questions with textile artist Rebecca Burgess of Fibershed, cotton grower/shepherd Sally Fox of FoxFibre, and Jeff Creque of the Marin Carbon Project and the Carbon Cycle Institute.

Yields: About 1 1/4 cups
U.S. | Metric | Conversion chart |
- 4 clove(s) garlic, crushed
- 2 egg yolks, from cage-free eggs
- 1 teaspoon(s) Dijon mustard
- 1 teaspoon(s) white wine vinegar
- A little pureed cooked potato, optional
- Salt
- Freshly cracked black pepper
- 1 cup(s) sunflower or canola oil
- 2 teaspoon(s) lemon juice
- Ensure that all the ingredients are at room temperature, in particular the eggs and oil: this makes emulsifying easier.
- Put the crushed garlic, egg yolks, mustard, vinegar, and pureed potato (if using) in a mixing bowl. Add a pinch of salt and pepper.
- Place the bowl on a dampened dishtowel, to keep it steady, and gradually pour in the oil in a thin stream, whisking all the time with the other hand, until it begins to thicken and forms an emulsion.
- When all the oil has been incorporated and the mayonnaise is thick, stir in the lemon juice and adjust the seasoning to taste.

text: A wool dress is a great article of clothing to wear in the winter because it is like embracing yourself in a giant, comfy sweater! If you want something fashionable that will keep you warm while the weather is chilly outside, then you need to wear a wool dress! There is not just one style that you can choose from when it comes to finding the right dress for you, there are many different styles! Variety is always a good thing, and you can keep it that way even when you want to wear wool in a dressy matter. A turtleneck wool dress is super comfortable and very sleek. Wear this dress with a pair of sophisticated stiletto boots and you are ready to take on anything, no matter how cold it is outside. Normally this dress is very form fitting and can really hug your curves just right. If you want a dress that is super sexy but also very conservative, then this is the one that is just right for you. Not every winter dress needs to have long sleeves. You can always sport a short sleeve wool dress! Whether it is a warmer winter day or just a day that you want to wear a jacket or cardigan over your dress, the short sleeves will do just the trick. If you are looking for something that you can wear without feeling too warm or too conservative, then you need a dress that has just a little sleeve. Do you want to wear wool in a dressy setting? If you need a dress to wear while you are at a special event but you do not want to sacrifice your warmth, then you need a strapless wool dress. This dress is incredibly sexy and ultra comfortable. What woman wouldn't want to feel and look incredibly fabulous all night long? If you need to go out this winter to a dressy event, then you need to stay warm while looking absolutely stunning! Who wouldn't want to look good while keeping warm during the winter season? Looking for a dress that is really comfy and casual? Then you need a long sleeve wool dress to wear while you are out walking around. Wear this dress with a pair of some laid back flat boots and you are ready to hit the town! You will look cool and casual and you will stay comfortable all day long. This is the best dress to wear when you want to keep things low key but still keep your style incredible. A long wool dress is also a great option for a woman who wants to stay warm in the winter but also wants to remain fashionable. If this sounds like you, then you need to cozy up in a long dress that will keep you toasty all day or night. This dress is great because you can wear it at a dressy occasion or a more relaxed one. A wool dress is the perfect dress to wear while the temperatures drop. Stop freezing when you go outside when it is chilly out! There is no need to only wear bulky sweaters or sweatpants any longer. If you are looking to stay warm and cozy this year, while also staying incredibly stylish, then you need this dress!

text: Australian rich person Clive Palmer is planning to construct a near-exact replica of the Titanic, and sail it from England to North America in late 2016. He says Titanic II will be every bit as luxurious as the original Titanic, and will have state-of-the-art 21st-century technology and the latest navigation and safety systems. The Titanic II will consist of 840 rooms across nine decks, and will feature "an enlarged rudder and bow thrusters for improved maneuverability." Asked if he is concerned the sequel will suffer the same fate as the original, Palmer responded, "It is going to be designed so it won't sink," but "of course it will sink if you put a hole in it."

Anna Hotel, Munich
Bad hotel
Posted on: December 31, 2008 at 7:28PM
Really a below standard hotel. Outrageously noisy bar. The hotel is NOT a design hotel, it is only using the name design as this is trendy - in fact it is nothing more than an overly expensive Ibis type business hotel. In some regards, not worth an Ibis - for instance the beddings are really cheap. Only positive point, the breakfast is quite good. This hotel clearly has nothing to do on the concierge.com selection.

Paulinho says that it is 'good' to be linked with Real Madrid but is focused on getting fully fit for Tottenham.
The Brazilian midfielder has impressed for Tim Sherwood's side since his £17million summer move from Corinthians.
The 25-year-old picked up an ankle injury against Stoke on December 28, however, and is yet to make his return to the side.
Recent reports have suggested that Real Madrid could make a move for Paulinho, but speaking to Sambafoot, he insists that Tottenham is his focus.
Paulinho said: "I leave these matters with my agent, but without doubt it is good recognition for any player to be coveted by a club with the history of Real Madrid.
"My head, however, is completely focused on returning to play and win at Tottenham."
Paulinho hopes that his form for Tottenham will secure him a starting place in Brazil's World Cup team.

By HUNTER BISHOP
Tribune-Herald staff writer
People are buzzing about Hilo Bake Co. A maple bacon donut tends to do that among the sweet-treat crowd.
The East Kawili Street bakery, open for only five weeks, has an unassuming appearance but a gut-busting selection of palate-pleasing baked goods.
Do you like s'mores? Donut style? How about coconut glazed? Or a Fruit Loops topping? Get the idea? They're all creative and delicious ways to liven up the classic cake with a hole. But it's the the salty bacon and sweet maple combo that drives donut lovers to drool.
Coen Murashige is the brains and chef behind the operation. The 2003 Waiakea High grad trained formally at the Western Culinary Institute — Le Cordon Bleu College of Culinary Arts in Portland, Ore. Murashige then "moved back home" in 2007, worked around a while and saved his money until the right opportunity arose. When the lease at 399 East Kawili St. recently became available, he was ready.
You can tell it's there only by the white-painted letters, "Hilo Bake Company, Bringing you a sweet morning," on the streetside wall. But inside customers are greeted immediately by a glass display case filled with scrumptious-looking donuts and baked items. "A lot of stuff that I enjoy eating," he said.
Murashige will be adding French breads and rolls to his racks of fresh-baked goods, along with filled donuts, in the near future.
And next to the bakery is a vacant restaurant that Murashige plans to open later this month with a cafe-type, or "diner-ish" menu, which will complement the bakery.
Family members and four or five employees are helping Murashige make a go of the new business. With no advertising but word-of-mouth and internet reviews, he's already developed a "nice, steady, comfortable" stream of customers coming through the bakery's doors.
Several lunch items, including "Da Dog," a pastry-wrapped beef frank with cheddar cheese and jalapeno pepper, and a ham-and-cheese puff on milk bread, are also available. A couple of picnic tables on the outdoor lanai can accommodate a few who want to sit and grind right away, at least until the restaurant side opens.
Bernie Hocson, who works nearby a MS Auto Body, stops in twice a day. Each time deciding what to get is a "hard decision," she said. "I never know … it's all so good. The maple bacon is like breakfast."
"A lot of people like the maple bacon," Murashige said. "They had it on the mainland or heard about it and want to try one."
Murashige, a big man, bristled at the mention of low-calorie items. "I'll think about putting some in," he said.
Murshige believes he's the first to bring the maple-bacon combo, which is popular on the mainland, to Hawaii Island. He's sampled a number of them from small Portland bakeries but most put a thick slice of bacon on the gooey sweet maple icing. "I always thought it was too much," he said. Murashige's creations are topped with maple icing and crumbled bacon for a better balance of flavor.
Same with s'mores, the graham cracker, chocolate and marshmallow confection that's been a tradition with kids around campfires for generations. Several varieties of s'mores donuts are available at gourmet donut shops on the mainland but Murashige believes he's introduced the first on Hawaii Island stamped with his personal touch.
Murashige said he's working hard these days and expects to work harder as the restaurant comes alive. But it's all good for the new owner of Hilo's newest bakery. "It's something I look forward to every day."
Hilo Bake Co. is open 5 a.m. to 5 p.m. Monday-Friday, 7 a.m. to 2 p.m. on the weekends, at 399 E. Kawili St., Hilo, next to Kim Yo's Okazuya.

Customer Raves & Reviews
Great Save the Dates
Our Sweet Love Save the Date Cards My fiance and I ordered these save the dates and they turned out great! We ordered a sample with the Premium Smooth paper at first, but ended up upgrading to the Luxe Pearl and it was worth every penny. Fast turnaround. We had a special request to remove the border (along with a few other revisions), and they were quick to send revised proofs. The final order arrived in a nicely packaged box w/ envelopes. They constantly have promotions going on, so the final cost ended up being ~$1/card, which is VERY reasonable compared to other sites. My only wish is that it came in the 5x7 format.
very cute
Field of Love Save the Date Cards My order came super fast. It was everything i thought. The only thing i wish is that I would have printed it on photo paper not cardstock but that was my own fault. otherwise amazing, i will buy from them again.
Fabulous card
Our Sweet Love Save the Date Cards The only thing I disliked about this card was the border around the picture, but I was able to request it get taken off! They came out amazing and am do excited! :)
Love Love Love!!
Snapshot Sweetness Save the Date Cards I honestly love our save the dates. I even loved the box they came in. Would totally recommend!!!
Easy Personalization
Hidden Stripe Save the Date Cards First of all, the entire site overall is very user friendly. Before personalizing everything I ordered samples to see the true quality of the products. I was shocked to see that not only was I sent the samples but I was also sent color swatches of my exact wedding colors based off of the colors I had put in. I also received a swatch of all the other colors they have available. I actually gave that sheet to my future sister in law because she is planning her wedding too. The quality is of the products is great. I love how everything can be personalized to your exact colors, pictures, and text. You can even order a sample of your card/magnet once you have personalized it. I did this because I am very particular on how things look. This site is much easier to use than some of the other sites I researched. Overall, I am very happy with my experience and I will definitely recommend others!!

Formulations Powder for Oral Solution: 1 mg/mLCapsules: 15 mg, 20 mg, 30 mg, 40 mg Generic: Stavudine capsules and solution have been approved by the Food and Drug Administration for manufacture and distribution in the United States. |
Dosing Recommendations Neonate/Infant Dose (Birth to 13 Days):
Selected Adverse Events
Special Instructions
Drug Interactions
(See also the Guidelines for the Use of Antiretroviral Agents in HIV-1-Infected Adults and Adolescents)Major Toxicities
The International Antiviral Society-USA (IAS-USA) maintains a list of updated resistance mutations (see http://www.iasusa.org/resistance_mutations/index.html), and the Stanford University HIV Drug Resistance Database offers a discussion of each mutation (see http://hivdb.stanford.edu/pages/GRIP/d4T.html).Pediatric Use
Stavudine is associated with a higher rate of adverse events than zidovudine in adults and children receiving cART.15,16 In a large pediatric natural history study (PACTG 219C), stavudine-containing regimens had a modest—but significantly higher—rate of clinical and laboratory toxicities than those containing zidovudine, with pancreatitis, peripheral neuropathy, and lipodystrophy/lipoatrophy (fat maldistribution) associated more often with stavudine use.16 Peripheral neuropathy is an important toxicity associated with stavudine but appears to be less common in children than in adults.3,17 In PACTG 219C, peripheral neuropathy was recognized in 0.9% of children.16Pharmacokinetics
Current pediatric dosing recommendations are based on early pharmacokinetic (PK) studies designed to achieve exposure (area under the curve) in children similar to that found in adults receiving a dose with proven efficacy.45 These early studies were conducted at a time when treatment options were limited and many children had failure to thrive. The authors in this early PK study state that stavudine distributes in total body water and because total body weight correlates well with lean body mass (or weight) stavudine dosages in obese children should be based on lean body weight.45Formulations
The pediatric formulation for stavudine oral solution requires refrigeration and has limited stability once reconstituted. As an alternative dosing method for children, capsules can be opened and dispersed in a small amount of water, the appropriate dose drawn up into an oral syringe, and administered immediately. Because plasma exposure is equivalent with stavudine administered in an intact or a dispersed capsule, dosing with the dispersal method can be used as an alternative to the oral solution.46References

1st idea : its A lens Camera .... merged with a portrait & a book !!
A-lens Camera : symbol to the Films which join the festival .
B-The Book : symbol to the Stories which the festival aim to.
C- The Portrait : symbol to the Heros of the stories or the watcher who was touched by the story .
2nd Idea : is The Cinema Camera but it was abstracted to lens & was Merged with a Rectangle this square symbol to the body of the camera in the same time in the other side from the rectangle its symbol to a part of the film roll ....Has Three White Squares by 3 concepts !!!
they pointed to 3 important things for any successful film in this festival..
A- Make the sightseers watching very well .
B-Hearing very well.
C-Deep Thinking to reach the right point I mean the core of the story ( its message ) .
Any lens had zooming option around it we kept move it left & right to focus on anything, Right !!
So I made " Stories from the Field " this zooming thing to the lens & i balanced it by a half circle ...!!
well i did this idea in a short version & full version but I prefer the Full version more if u accept it - IF U Don't Mind ofcours- to appear all in all in everything about the event !! anyway its up to you !!
Hope you all liked my ideas :)

YouTube goes fully mobile — too bad it doesn't work
Just one month after launching its full complement of content on the Helio network, YouTube took its new mobile platform worldwide. Thursday it brought its whole video catalog to the mobile device, allowing anyone to access any video from the mobile Web site, m.youtube.com�or,�from some phones, a downloadable Java client. It's allowing people to log in and access personalized setting,�and enabling�sharing, ratings and comments. And what's more, YouTube is supporting the upload of video directly from the mobile phone. I probably don't need to emphasize the importance of this. No content sharing service or social networking site has yet extended all of its content and functionality to its mobile portal. It's quite simply a boon to the industry. Or it would have been. Unfortunately the service doesn't appear to work. more

Face Treatments
Acid Peels
The Treatment
New generation acid peels involve the use of gentle fruit acids. These have a mild exfoliating action removing dead skin cells and debris from the surface of the skin.
The acid is chosen based on skin type and condition, and the effect required. After the treatment, the acid is completely neutralised and a soothing mask is applied for a few minutes to calm the skin. These chemical peels require no down time with only a mild peeling effect, if any at all.
The Benefit
Acid peels have come a long way, they leave your skin clean and free of debris, with a luminous, healthy glow. Serums are absorbed better and make-up application is smoother. Having a chemical peel is an ideal precursor to other treatments helping to make them even more effective.
- Glycolic acid derived from sugar cane, rejuvenating helping with fine lines, ideal for light skin tones
- Lactic acid derived from milk, a mild acid for dry sensitive skins, and pigmentation
- Salicylic acid derived from the bark of the sweet birch, good for oily congested skin
- Mandelic acid derived from sweet almonds, a gentle acid, good for aged and pigmented skin ideal for darker skin tones
Face Masks
The Treatment
Cryo-face masks are made from algae extract with added active ingredients. Once applied to the skin, they set into a rubberised mask which is left on for 15 minutes before being peeled off. The mask reduces the temperature of the skin by 5-8 degrees helping to give the skin a temporary lift, reduce puffiness around the eyes and improve moisture content.
Collagen face masks improve skin tone and structure and promote healing, as well as replenishing lost collagen caused by pollution and the environment.
The Benefits
This is a relaxing facial treatment using a customised face mask to boost the condition of your skin and give it a lift.
Cryo-face Masks
- green mask - environmentally damaged skin
- green tea mask - anti-ageing
- moisture mask - dehydrated skin
- vitamin C mask - anti-oxidant, nutrient rich
- reaffirming mask - anti-sagging, revitalising
- regenerating mask - soothes stressed skin
- balancing mask - oily skin and open pores
- collagen masks - fabric masks infused with hyaluronic acid, collagen and vitamins
Skinfusion Treatments
The Treatment
The latest in skin rejuvenation without needles. Using infrared light at 905nm, the optimal wavelength for stimulating the skin, opening the pores and allowing product absorption, our SkinFusionufacials give you amazing results without the need for the surgeons knife.
Each treatment involves a double application of your chosen serum, followed by a cryogenic mask.
With injectables only being able to treat specific sites, these facials treat the skin as a whole. Widely considered to be the future in antiageing and skin rejuvenation, our treatments really give your skin a boost.
The Benefits
An intensive course of 6 treatments, twice weekly can give you results which last 6 - 12 months. Your skin looks refreshed and bright without the 'frozen' look you get from injectables. A one-off treatment is a deluxe facial which will boost skin texture and condition.
- Plumping using hyaluronic acid as a natural filler to re-plump skin and reduce lines and wrinkles
- Smoothing using plant hexa-peptides with botox like effects to relax the muscles and smooth the skin
- Brightening using tranexamic acid which inhibits and breaks down excess skin pigmentation
- Anti-Bacterial using salicylic acid which reduces sebum production and has strong antibacterial properties
- Plant Stem Cell using 5% Swiss apple stem cells to protect and rejuvenate the epidermis, for fresher, brighter complexion
The Ultra Facial
The Treatment
Ultrasound at different frequencies can penetrate the skin to different depths. The waves cause vibrations and a very gentle heat helping to melt away thin layers of fat deposited around the jaw line and cheeks, helping to reshape and contour the face.
Very gentle wavelengths stimulate cell metabolism and accelerate collagen fibre production, as well as aiding product penetration.
The Benefits
Ultrasound treatments are painless, involve no incisions and no down time. The face is reshaped and lifted, the skin remains firm and with the added benefit of combining the treatment with serums to help skin tone.
Endermologie Liftmassage Treatments
The Treatment
Gentle micro-pulsations are delivered to the face, neck or decollete, this mechanical stimulation on the surface of the skin stimulates collagen production and restores firmness and plumpness, it also boosts the skin's elastic memory for long term results. A course of ten treatments, twice weekly is recommended.
The Benefits
As skin ages, it becomes thinner and less elastic. This thinning, causes lines and wrinkles to appear and also leads to a sagging jaw-line. Clinical studies show that mechanically stimulating the fibroblasts found in the dermis of the skin, increases their activity and boosts collagen and elastin production, leading to plumper, firmer skin. More information can be found liftmassage.com.
Photo Rejuvenation Facials
The Treatment
We all know that too much UV from the sun can cause skin damage, but we rarely stop to consider that certain wavelengths of light can actually be good for us. We make vitamin D using sunlight and other wavelengths help stimulate cell rejuvenation and also lift our spirits.
A range of seven therapeutic wavelengths are available to use, either alone or in combination, to help treat different skin conditions. By combining the therapeutic light with a low microcurrent you can boost the absorption of any serums or creams used in your chosen photo-facial.
The Benefits
A gentle facial with real stimulating properties for the skin. The facial involves a fruit enzyme cleanse to remove dirt and debris, the addition of a serum or cream and the application of light.
- Red Light stimulating and rejuvenating
- Blue Light calming and anti-bacterial
- Green Light balancing and pore minimising
- Purple Light repairing and drains puffiness
- Yellow Light brightening and breaks down pigmentation
- Cyan Light calming and soothing for sunburn
- White Light anti-ageing aids nutrient absorption
IPL skin rejuvenation
The Treatment
IPL ( Intense Pulsed Light ) treatments are used to treat strong sun damage and age spots by targeting excess melanin found in the skin and drawing the pigment to the surface where is forms a thin crust and falls away, leaving a clear blemish free skin.
Thread veins found around the nose and cheeks and rosacea can also be treated. The haemoglobin found in the damaged veins is targeted, the veins collapse and are broken down by the body, leaving clear skin and reducing redness.
Acne can be treated by targeting the bacteria causing the infection. Once the bacteria is destroyed the spots will disappear.
The Benefits
Treatments are quick and easy. For skin rejuvenation, one treatment monthly for a total of four months is required. For Acne, one treatment weekly is required for six weeks to kill the bacteria.
Flash-White Teeth Whitening
The Treatment
One of the most immediate anti-ageing treatments you can have is teeth whitening. A bright smile can take years off you and with our patented gel and blue light, cold laser technology, it takes only one hour to achieve.
FlashWhite, is a professional teeth whitening system that uses oxygen and the latest generation patented photo- activated ingredients. FlashWhite affords truly stunning results for the most common extrinsic stains, such as those caused by tobacco, tea, coffee, wine, ketchup and curries.
The Benefits
After the initial consultation and preparation, the treatment involves only two 15 minute cycles using the patented gel. The cold laser minimises the chance of sensitivity. The treatment only needs to be done once or twice a year to maintain a bright healthy smile.
Dermal roller mesotherapy
The Treatment
Dermal rollers work on the principle that the tiny puncture wounds caused during the treatment stimulate cell and collagen production in the healing process, helping plump up the skin and reduce fine lines and wrinkles. A dermal roller can have needles from 0.2 - 3mm long. We use short needle dermal rollers, from 0.2 to 0.75mm, this eliminates the need for topical anaesthetic and causes no bleeding so the effects can be achieved with no down time. We combine the dermal roller treatment with a multivitamin serum to provide a highly effective mesotherapy treatment.
The Benefits
The dermal roller treatment helps with skin rejuvenation, improves fine lines and wrinkles and reduces pigmentation and acne scarring. The treatment works deep into the middle layer of the skin and aids the penetration of vitamins and cosmeceuticals which can be used in combination with the treatment to achieve great results. Only a series of three treatments are needed to see a great improvement in the skin condition.
Microcurrent non-surgical face lift
The Treatment
The microcurrent non-surgical face lift uses a low level of electricity which mirrors the body's own natural electrical impulses. The current works on the facial muscles, causing tiny contractions, lifting and toning sagging muscles. With regular treatments the muscles receive a stimulating work-out, resulting in firmed and toned facial contours.
The Benefits
As our muscles lose tone and begin to sag, so do our facial features. This treatment helps lift cheek, brow and jaw muscles and helps maintain a youthful appearance. A course of 6 treatments, twice weekly is recommended initially, then a single monthly session is needed to maintain the result.
Radio Frequency skin tightening
The Treatment
Radio-frequency ( RF ) works using the principles of diathermy ( deep heating ). RF uses very short wavelengths to penetrate the skin without affecting the nerves or muscles. The increase in temperature caused by the vibration of the RF waves is around 4-5 degrees centigrade. This temperature rise improves blood flow, cell metabolism and lymph circulation, boosting oxygen and nutrient uptake. The heat tightens the elastin fibres which connect the skin to the muscle and promotes collagen production.
The Benefits
RF treatments can be used on facial areas where the tone and tightness of the skin needs to be improved. The treatment is warm without being uncomfortable and can be carried out at weekly intervals until the required results are achieved.
The Treatment
Diamond microdermabrasion uses diamond heads and a gentle vacuum suction to gently remove excess dirt and dead skin cells from the surface of the skin. The treatment works over the whole face without the use of crystals or fine sand to avoid blocking the pores.
The Benefits
Microdermabrasion gently resurfaces the skin, helping diminish fine lines and scars and also reduce pigmentation. The treatment is ideal for skin which has a tendency to clog and suffers from congestion. It is a great starting point for then allowing serums and creams to be better absorbed.
