Alvar Aalto
Alvar Aalto
1898 - 1976
Alvar Aalto was born on February 3, 1898 in Kuortane, Finland and died on May 11, 1976.
His name in itself means "wave" which later would come to life in his architecture. An architect, designer of cities, and furniture maker, Aalto's international style rested on a distinctive blend of modernist refinement, indigenous materials, and personal expression in form and detail.
His regional and cultural architecture has come to be known as the Scandinavian style. His work included schools, libraries, churches, housing schemes, university plans, entire urban layouts, glassware and plywood furniture.
Aalto's preliminary plans were freely sketched without the use of tools so that the unfettered creative urge for inventive shapes and irregular forms was allowed full play before functional relationships and details were resolved. His use of complex forms and varied materials, acknowledged the character of the site, and gave attention to every detail of the building. The volumes of space created through clustered overlapping of forms were articulated with windows, and introduced views, and motion through curved surfaces. These curved forms often used by Aalto were, he thought, related to the anthropomorphic forms; he was always concerned with the human factor. The curved forms also allowed for varied views along their paths. Natural materials such as wood, brick, stone, copper, and marble were used and were always articulated with natural lighting.
Aalto's style was contextual and vernacular, he was very sensitive to contours of the land, angles and direction of the sunlight. He was very conscious of the need for social settings linked directly to natural surroundings with the use of natural landscape. They achieved this through natural living conditions, the use of natural materials, and integration within the boundaries of landscape and vegetation. Nature, sun, trees, and air all served as functions in creating a harmonious balance between natural and artificial.
In contradiction of Le Corbusier, Aalto said, "Nature not the machine should serve as the model for architecture." This was very much in compliance with the thoughts of Frank Lloyd Wright. He also remarked, "Architecture cannot disengage itself from natural and human factors; on the contrary it must never do so. Its function is to bring nature ever closer to us." Aalto's massive monumental designs both rich in surface textures and traditional materials were showcased with his control of flowing spaces, natural light, sureness of volume and combined with a great attention to detail.
He has influenced many through an international style that he so adorned. As he once said, "nothing is ever reborn, but it never completely disappears either, everything that has ever been emerges in a new form." His belief that buildings should be individual solutions to a given set of problems became the driving force of his architecture, a belief that has become internationally recognized and accepted.

Bruins hammer Canucks after Nathan Horton injury as Tim Thomas stops 40
BOSTON -- The Boston Bruins gingerly tapped their sticks on the ice while medical personnel wheeled Nathan Horton out of the hushed arena through the Zamboni tunnel, his neck fixed in a brace after a late hit to the head from Vancouver's Aaron Rome.
Horton's teammates needed a few minutes to clear their minds after such a frightening injury. When they finally got their heads together, they created an offensive avalanche that got them right back in this series.

Andrew Ference and David Krejci each had a goal and an assist during Boston's four-goal second period, Tim Thomas made 40 saves, and the Bruins beat the Canucks 8-1 in Game 3 of the Stanley Cup finals Monday night, trimming Vancouver's series lead to 2-1.
"It's always tough when a guy goes down," said forward Brad Marchand, who scored a short-handed goal in the second. "We really wanted to get this win tonight for him. It's a very tough situation, and everyone is worried about him, but it definitely gave us motivation to win."
Game 4 is Wednesday in Boston.
Boston burst out of a three-game offensive slump one period after Horton was taken off the ice on a stretcher 5 minutes into the game, rendered senseless by Rome's check in the neutral zone. Horton was talking and moving his extremities after going to a hospital.
Mark Recchi scored two goals for the Bruins, who turned a big win into a blowout with four more goals in the final 8½ minutes of the third period. Boston produced its highest-scoring playoff game since getting nine goals on April 20, 1983.
"We talked a lot about playing for Horty," said the 43-year-old Recchi, already the oldest player to score a goal in the finals. "He's been a great teammate for us all year. It's tough to see your teammate down on the ice. We knew it was a late hit, but we're a little more concerned with his health at this point."
Boston had managed just three goals in its previous 10 periods before torching Vancouver goalie Roberto Luongo, who stopped 30 shots.
Daniel Paille scored a short-handed goal in the third, and Recchi, Chris Kelly and Michael Ryder -- who finished with three points -- scored in the final 2½ minutes as the Bruins emphatically avoided a daunting 0-3 series deficit.
Boy, That Escalated Quickly
The Bruins' 8-1 victory in Game 3 tied for the second-largest margin of victory in the Stanley Cup Finals since the NHL took control of the Stanley Cup in 1927.

Year | Score | Margin |

1996* | Avalanche 8, Panthers 1 | 7 |

Jannik Hansen broke up Thomas' shutout bid with 6:07 to play for the Canucks, who finally hit a major bump in their late-season roll toward their first Stanley Cup title.
"Still 2-1 for us. Luckily, we are not playing with an aggregate score," Vancouver defenseman Kevin Bieksa said. "Next game is huge for us, and if we take care of that, we are in a great position. You don't want to lose 8-1. It's embarrassing at this time of year."
NHL scoring champion Daniel Sedin got a 10-minute misconduct late in the jarring loss for the Presidents' Trophy winners, who had won seven of eight games. The Canucks had given up just six total goals in their previous four games while closing out the Western Conference finals and taking a two-game lead over Boston.
"In the playoffs, a loss is a loss, if you lose in OT or you lose like we did tonight," Vancouver coach Alain Vigneault said.
The Bruins were one goal shy of equaling the finals record of nine goals, set by Detroit in Game 2 of the 1936 series and matched by Toronto six years later in Game 5. The eight goals were the most scored in the finals since Colorado topped Florida 8-1 on June 6, 1996, in Game 2, according to STATS LLC.
The palpable excitement of Boston's first home finals game in 21 years turned into unease just 5 minutes into Game 3.
After Horton passed the puck to Milan Lucic at the Vancouver blue line, Rome left his feet to deliver a hard shoulder check to Horton's upper chest and head. Horton appeared to be unconscious after he landed flat on his back, his arm spookily reaching up into empty space.
"I think what I recall is it was a blindside hit that we've talked about taking out of the game," Bruins coach Claude Julien said. "That's my view on it. Let the league take care of it. We're trying to clean that part of the game out."
Medical personnel spent several minutes attending to Horton, who scored the Bruins' winning Game 7 goals in the first round against Montreal and again in the Eastern Conference finals against Tampa Bay.
"I never want to see any player leave in that situation," Vigneault said. "The hit seemed to be a little bit late. ... That was a head-on hit, player looking at his pass. It was a little bit late. I don't think that's the hit the league is trying to take out."
Rome got a five-minute major for interference and a game misconduct, with at least one fan throwing a yellow towel at the Vancouver bench while Rome went to the dressing room. The shaken Bruins didn't score on six shots on their marathon power play, but the Boston crowd rose and cheered several minutes later when a scoreboard message gave good news about Horton's condition.
Boston fans already were upset with the Canucks after two bad-tempered games in Vancouver, including Alex Burrows' apparent bite on Patrice Bergeron's finger during Game 1. The bite was still on the minds of both teams, with players from both teams taunting their opponents by pointing their index finger at another player's mouth.
Just 11 seconds into the second period -- the same amount of time Burrows needed to end overtime in Game 2 -- Ference threaded a long shot past Krejci and two Canucks defensemen to beat Luongo on the far side of his net.
Things Really Got Out Of Hand Fast
The Bruins and Canucks combined for 145 penalty minutes in Game 3 on Monday night, the second-most in a Stanley Cup Finals game in the last 25 years.

— from Elias Sports Bureau
The Bruins' struggling power play finally connected 4:11 later for just its seventh goal of the postseason when Recchi's centering pass hit the stick of Vancouver's Ryan Kesler, deflecting through Luongo's legs.
After Marchand created his own short-handed goal with a pass to himself off the boards, the rout was on when Krejci scored an easy goal on a long rebound given up by the struggling Luongo, a top contender for the Conn Smythe Trophy as the playoff MVP.
Thomas was sharp on the other end, with a handful of slick saves including two point-blank stops on Mason Raymond late in the second period.
The goalie then got the Boston crowd on its feet with a two-handed check of Vancouver captain Henrik Sedin, knocking the playoffs scoring leader flat on his back while he tried to catch a puck that popped into the air in front of Thomas' crease.
"We're more back in it than we were before the game," Thomas said. "I didn't even mean that to be funny. What I mean is, baby steps. ... If we won the next game, then I'd be comfortable saying we're right back in it."
Vancouver won the first two games on its home ice, turning both games in their favor in the third period before dramatic late game-winners by Raffi Torres and Burrows.
Game 3 already was essentially over before it even got that far.
The third period turned chippy after Sedin and Ference got misconducts for a scuffle. Moments later, Boston's Shawn Thornton threw his stick up the Bruins' tunnel in anger at the officials after getting his own misconduct penalty.
The clubs combined for 98 penalty minutes in the third, with Kesler and Boston's Dennis Seidenberg dropping their gloves for the first fight of the finals.
Boston was buzzing for the first June home game in Bruins history, along with their first Stanley Cup finals game at TD Garden, which wasn't open when Boston made its last trip in 1990. Bruins fans filled the downtown streets -- but so did Vancouver fans, who wore their club's blue jerseys while filling hundreds of seats in the lower bowl.
Game notes
The Bruins won Game 3 in all four of their postseason series. ... Julien made one lineup change for Game 3, scratching rookie Tyler Seguin and inserting Thornton. ... Vancouver C Manny Malhotra played his second straight game since returning from a career-threatening eye injury. He even took the opening draw, but the faceoff specialist lost it to Bergeron. Malhotra played 14:58.

Examining The Less Manly Japanese "Herbivore"
By Tom Miller
Herbivore: an organism which gets its food energy from plant tissue.
Good start. According to CNN, a Japanese columnist is very concerned that a subset (possibly a generation) of young Japanese men is going soft. Maki Fukasawa applied the term "herbivore" to men who are not interested in typical manly pursuits (money, sex, kendo, rock gardening et cetera).
In the past one hundred years, the Land of the Rising Sun has gone through a myriad of identity shifts. They've gone from agrarian to industrial, from aggressively expansive to sternly pacifist, from fiercely isolated to a great cog in the global economy and, lastly, from exclusively male-dominated (to the point of misogyny) to… something else.
Maki Fukasawa (a woman, FYI) chose the term "herbivore" not to describe these chaps as graceful leaf-eaters (Or water-dwelling mammals. Where did you get that preposterous hypothesis? Did Steve tell you that?) but because the Japanese for sexual congress roughly translates to "relationship in flesh," which these blokes are not down with. Read: Japanese Women Buy Male Attention
In addition to avoiding double-backed beasts, these gentle creatures are prone to enjoying a manorexic physique and live under the assumption that men and women can be friends without an underlying need to consort (I'd buy that for a dollar*). The "Herbivore" revolution sort of combines the least Yang-y aspects of the Emo scene, metrosexuality, skinny jeans and the asexuality movement (of which I'm skeptical that there are more than five members who aren't just really bad at getting tail).
Maki Fukasawa (a woman) claims that the rise of the "herbivores" is actually a return to a kinder, gentler culture, rather than a rejection of time-honored chauvinism. While I agree that the stereotype of the sex-obsessed company man is probably overblown, the culture (and the region) does have a history of being OK with separating sex and relationships (not just adorable geishas but whores too).

Spring Time – Campus Jobs and SXSW
It's been a busy month of exams, projects, and of course, spring break. My spring break wasn't actually all that exciting. I was working at the Office of Admissions for three days, so it didn't make much sense to fly home for half of a week. I still had fun hanging around Austin and getting to explore some of the events at South by Southwest.
First of all, I highly recommend looking for an on-campus job. In most years there are more jobs available than students to fulfill them. I have friends who work in centers for computer research, career advising offices, and athletic centers. It's an especially valuable experience if you can find a job that relates to your major. Personally, I love my job at the Office of Admissions. Giving tours of campus is always enjoyable and my coworkers are some of my best friends. Weekends are always more fun when you have discretionary money as well.
In the second half of Spring Break, I explored South by Southwest with some of my friends who also stayed in town. SXSW is a weeklong festival for music artists, filmmakers, and technology developers. Downtown Austin is taken over by music fans donning badges and wristbands to access different venues. These passes are expensive and pretty hard to come by but there are free events to be found if you play your cards right. In the last two days, I was able to catch free shows for The Strokes and Bright Eyes. On Saturday, my friend Yomi and I happened to be in the right place at the right time and had a chance to meet the rapper B.O.B.
Even when there wasn't a show going on it was still fun to take in the whole experience. One of the great aspects of UT is that our campus is clearly defined but it's still located in Austin. The heart of the 'Live Music Capital of the World' is always only just a few blocks away.

Governor Romney has been chosen to be the Republican candidate based on his actions as a blank piece of paper.
The plan is to program him while in office. This plan comes from a new group called "Teavangelicals" and is explained in David Brody's new book that came out this week.
It will finally tell the world exactly what America stands for and it will destroy every shadow of a liberal secular America. The plans start with our little children in school and our programming on television and will leave no secular subject hovering over our nation.
They chose Romney precisely because of his Mormon training. From his childhood he has taken his actions from the Prophet and he has followed this plan with precision. Anyone who has read Orwell understands this programming of the human mind.
America is vulnerable to this kind of leadership because we have not done the proper rational and free-thinking training for generations. We are trained to conform and we can hear statements like "Most people believe……" and if we realize we are not most people, we will conform.
30% of the American people believe and work for individual liberties and often follow men like Perot and Ron Paul and we pay for it when out in the public discussions.
30% is no longer good enough for my efforts. I was shocked when Pew actually put out the charts on the major divisions of why people vote. No wonder I'm lost on these forums. No wonder I can't get accepted by so many internet sites.
No more political stuff for me. I find the Tea Party and the Evangelicals an insult to the American culture where our individuality brought us out of the UK and into our own nation.
It will make me physically sick to watch Romney learn his lesson in how to wipe out any plan to bring up the academics of the next generations. He will leave schooling up to the churches and homes. Women will be treated like brood mares as they have been in the LDS church from its inception.
People like President Obama are dangerous to American values because he is the model of individual efforts based on his training by his grandparents, and his own courage to be an individual.
I am not a Democrat by any stretch of the imagination but I am certainly not a member of the Teavengelicals. My 30% is a homeless, lost group who refuse to bow to what most people believe.

Group of seven inducted into Pro Football Hall of Fame in Canton
August 4, 2013 12:00 AMCANTON, Ohio -- Bill Parcells unofficially spoke for everyone in the Pro Football Hall of Fame, and all the people gathered to see him and six others inducted Saturday night.
"There's a kinship created that lasts for the rest of your life," he said about his experience as one of the NFL's most successful coaches.
Parcells became the first coach in seven years to make the Hall, with several of his proteges in the crowd at Fawcett Stadium. The only coach to take four franchises to the playoffs, Parcells won Super Bowls with the New York Giants in the 1986 and 1990 seasons.
The master of the team turnaround with the Giants, Patriots, Jets and Cowboys, Parcells was called "the definitive winner" by former player George Martin, who presented him for induction.
"Every organization I worked for supported me to the fullest," Parcells said. "Without that, you've got no shot."
Parcells' career record was 183-138-1 and he won Coach of the Year honors in 1986 and 1994.
And he mentioned a quote by former Giants defensive back Emlen Tunnell, the first black man inducted into the Canton shrine, in 1967:
"Losers assemble in little groups and complain about the coaches and players in other little groups. But winners assemble as a team."
Parcells was preceded by offensive linemen Jonathan Ogden and Larry Allen, and linebacker Dave Robinson in the induction ceremonies marking the 50th anniversary of the Hall of Fame. Curley Culp followed Parcells into the Hall.
As relaxed as if he had no one to block, Ogden became the first Baltimore Raven enshrined in the Hall. He was followed moments later by former Packers linebacker Robinson, then by Allen, Ogden's rare equal in their era among offensive linemen.
Ogden was the leadoff inductee in his seven-member class, just as he was the first player drafted by the Ravens after the franchise moved from Cleveland in 1996 and was renamed. The man who made that selection, fellow Hall of Famer Ozzie Newsome, now Baltimore's general manager, presented the massive offensive tackle.
Newsome was one of more than 120 Hall members, a record, who returned to Fawcett Stadium for the festivities.
A former college shot putter at UCLA, at 6 feet 9, 345 pounds, Ogden was an imposing presence at tackle for a dozen seasons in Baltimore, winning the 2000 NFL championship.
"He is part of the foundation of this franchise, part of the reason we have two Super Bowl championships," Newsome said.
Ogden, who was given a 2013 Super Bowl ring by the team, made the Hall in his first year of eligibility. He was a six-time All-Pro, made the Pro Bowl 11 times and was the main blocker when Jamal Lewis rushed for 2,066 yards in 2003.
Allen, who sniffled his way through his speech, was just as dominating a blocker as Ogden. He also was, he said, NFL's strongest man, once bench-pressing 700 pounds, and saying "I did it naturally."
One of the key blockers for Dallas as Emmitt Smith became the NFL's career rushing leader, Allen made six All-Pro squads and 11 Pro Bowls in his 14 seasons, the final two with San Francisco.
Allen won the Super Bowl in the 1995 season and was voted into the Hall of Fame in his first year of eligibility,
"I just knew I had to win every play," he said. "That's the reason I am here. I knew if I lost a play, I had 45 seconds to get even."
Presented by Cowboys owner Jerry Jones, Allen punctuated his discourse with the requisite "How about them Cowboys?" as he joined the likes of Smith, Troy Aikman, Michael Irvin and Deion Sanders in the Hall.
Robinson was a prototype outside linebacker who could rush the quarterback, cover tight ends or running backs on pass plays, and stop the run. He made the NFL's All-Decade team of the 1960s and won three NFL titles, including the first two Super Bowls.
"I never dreamt about the Hall of Fame" when he was at Penn State, he joked. "There wasn't even a Hall of Fame when I broke in to the NFL."
Indeed, Robinson's rookie season was the year the Hall was created, 1963.
"Now, I am immortalized."
As is Culp, one of the game's most dominant defensive tackles for much of his 14 pro seasons, including the 1969 season when he helped Kansas City win the NFL title.
A five-time Pro Bowler, Culp also played for Houston and Detroit, retiring in 1981, then waiting more than three decades to be enshrined Saturday as a senior nominee.
• Game: Miami Dolphins vs. Dallas Cowboys in Hall of Fame Game, Canton, Ohio.
• When: 8 p.m.
• The skinny: Cowboys LB Sean Lee (Upper St. Clair) may see his first action since a season-ending foot injury in October.

Top Credit Card Stories of 2012
7. Major strides in technology
Technological changes made last year will re-shape the card industry.
A number of products are now on the market that turn smartphones and iPads into credit card readers, allowing independent vendors to accept credit cards in remote locations. Products such as Square, Paypal's Here, Bank of America's (BAC) Mobile Pay on Demand and Groupon (GRPN) Payments are becoming more popular.
Digital wallets showed tremendous growth in 2012. These products make online check-out faster, thus decreasing shopping cart abandonment. Instead of entering a long credit card number and shipping address, customers enter an email address and password and the shipping information is filled in automatically.
American travelers run into complications when card readers in a foreign country do not accept magnetic strip cards, since many have converted to chip technology known as EMV (for Europay/MasterCard/Visa) in which with cards are embedded with a microprocessor chip that encrypts and stores account information. Now banks are slowly adding EMV here.
MasterCard announced plans to test a credit card in the next few weeks in Singapore that contains a built-in LCD display and a keyboard. While functioning as a traditional credit card, the MasterCard Display Card will allow customers to use these unique features to create one-time passwords to buy items online. 8. Spending on mobile devicesConsumers are changing the way they spend their money. A greater number of people are feeling more comfortable with spending via their mobile devices, and the rapid growth underscores how retailers need to adjust to this booming mobile commerce. A study by Javelin Strategy & Research reveals that more than $20.7 billion in sales took place on mobile devices in 2011. Another report from IDC Financial Insights predicts that purchase volume on mobile devices throughout the world by consumers and businesses will exceed $1 trillion by 2017. The majority of this volume will come from mobile commerce, which includes e-commerce through a mobile Web browser and the purchase of digital media. 9. Discontinuation of payment protection
After a series of consumer lawsuits and new fines from the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, some credit card issuers got out of the payment protection business. The payment protection plans were marketed as a way to help consumers through difficult times, but the protection plans had restrictions and were criticized as misleading consumers. The Government Accountability Office found that cardholders got just 21 cents in tangible financial benefits for every dollar spent in debt protection product fees from the nine largest credit card issuers. Bank of America stopped promoting its Credit Protection program in August and no longer offers the program to new customers. It plans to drop the payment protection business next year. American Express dropped its Account Protector program Dec. 31. 10. Elizabeth Warren
In November, Elizabeth Warren was elected to be a senator from Massachusetts. Warren helped create the Consumer Financial Protection Bureau, and the possibility of her leading the CFPB alarmed Republicans. She did not get the post and instead entered politics. After her victory over Scott Brown, Warren was picked to have a seat on the Senate Banking Committee where, ironically, she will be a watchdog over banks and financial institutions.

The term "ethereal" is used in attempt to describe a sort of otherworldly, heavenly beauty in music that is difficult to grasp. Ethereal music usually sounds lush, hazy, spaced out, with distant synths, echoing guitars, and soaring vocals. This typical ethereal sound can be found in many genres such as ambient, new age, neofolk, dream pop, shoegaze, darkwave, and (obviously) ethereal wave.

Why Saying No in Your Relationship Is a Good Thing
Many of us hate hearing the word "No." And many of us don't like saying it either. You might be especially uncomfortable with saying no to your partner. Often people think that going along with their partner's requests will be good for their relationship.
Less disagreement equals less conflict, they assume. Some people don't even get that far. They just have a hard time voicing their opinions or needs altogether.
But saying yes all the time when you don't really mean it can actually backfire and damage your relationship. For instance, it can build resentment, according to Andrew Wald, LCSW-C, a psychotherapist who works with couples and co-author of Togetherness: Creating and Deepening Sustainable Love. You also may become enmeshed as a couple and less of your own person, he said.
By saying no, you're creating a boundary. And boundaries are essential for any healthy relationship. Unfortunately, boundaries tend to get a bad rap, Wald said, because they're viewed as keeping partners away from each other.

I'm about to head to Wesley to have a big sleepover with the other 15 people headed to Guatemala with me in the morning. Tallahassee to Miami and then Guat. From there we have a 4 hour bus ride to the village of Chontala where we are staying and working and loving on the people.
Unexpectedly, I'm nervous. For what? I can't put my finger on it. Maybe because I'll forget something. Maybe because it's my first international mission trip. Maybe because I'm afraid I won't jump into things right away and miss out. Maybe because I'm leading worship and really haven't gotten the songs down pat yet. Maybe because car rides sometimes make me sick.
I am actually looking forward to the culture shock. I want to feel things and see things outside my everyday, busy, and sometimes apathetic life. I want to write every moment down and how it made me and others feel. I want to have meaningful conversations about God with members of my team and with the families.
We were told a few meetings ago that one of the young women lost both her parents at a young age. I really want her to know that she is not alone. That I have been there. That I have the same struggles. But do I? I don't live in Guat. I haven't experienced what she has. But I want God to work through that and use me to give her peace if she needs it. And maybe she will teach me something too. Just like everyone else will, I am confident of that.
I want to remember how I am feeling now when I get back in 9 days. What a beautiful week it will have been. And of course, it will go by too quickly. It always does.

Earth ovens combine the utility of a wood-fired, retained-heat oven with the ease and timeless beauty of earthen construction. Building one will appeal to bakers, builders, and beginners of all kinds, from:

Earth ovens combine the utility of a wood-fired, retained-heat oven with the ease and timeless beauty of earthen construction. Building one will appeal to bakers, builders, and beginners of all kinds, from:
� the serious or aspiring baker who wants the best low-cost?bread oven, to
� gardeners who want a centerpiece for a beautiful?outdoor kitchen, to
� outdoor chefs, to
� creative people interested in low-cost materials and?simple technology, to
� teachers who want a multi-faceted, experiential project for students of all ages (the book has been successful with? everyone from third-graders to adults).
Build Your Own Earth Oven is fully illustrated with step-by-step directions, including how to tend the fire, and how to make perfect sourdough hearth loaves in the artisan tradition. The average do-it-yourselfer with a few tools and a scrap pile can build an oven for free, or close to it. Otherwise, $30 should cover all your materials--less than the price of a fancy "baking stone." Good building soil is often right in your back yard, under your feet. Build the simplest oven in a day! With a bit more time and imagination, you can make a permanent foundation and a fire-breathing dragon-oven or any other shape you can dream up.
Earth ovens are familiar to many that have seen a southwestern "horno" or a European "bee-hive" oven. The idea, pioneered by Egyptian bakers in the second millennium BCE, is simplicity itself: fill the oven with wood, light a fire, and let it burn down to ashes. The dense, 3- to 12-inch-thick earthen walls hold and store the heat of the fire, the baker sweeps the floor clean, and the hot oven walls radiate steady, intense heat for hours.
Home bakers who can't afford a fancy, steam-injected bread oven will be delighted to find that a simple earth oven can produce loaves to equal the fanciest "artisan" bakery. It also makes delicious roast meats, cakes, pies, pizzas, and other creations. Pizza cooks to perfection in three minutes or less. Vegetables, herbs, and potatoes drizzled with olive oil roast up in minutes for a simple, elegant, and delicious meal. Efficient cooks will find the residual heat useful for slow-baked dishes, and even for drying surplus produce, or incubating homemade yogurt.
Kiko Denzer is an artist, teacher, and author in the earthen building revival. He serves as artist-in-residence in schools in his home state of Oregon, and has muddied tens of thousands of hands with his popular oven and bread manual, Build Your Own Earth Oven.
Hannah Field baked for organic bakeries in the UK. She lives in Oregon with Kiko Denzer, with whom she shares a home, garden, & two sons.
I am happy I bought this book, even after I saw that my local library had copies. This book offers support, encouragement and a sense of community. Drawbacks: very short on "how to" and a bit disorganized in presentation.

Just to clarify: is your question about food safety, or about the proper timing for grilling a steak to medium?
If you're worried about e.coli, you would need to cook the meat quite well. I wouldn't even take the risk with that though, we got rid of all our beef - we live in Calgary, Alberta, 3 hours away from XL foods, the tainted plant... so we won't be taking any chances!
Pregnant women should always have their meat cooked well, also (I never liked to, however. I live life on the wild side) & lastly, If you're concerned about carcinogenic char, using propane is much better than using charcoal.
I grill on a propane grill several nights a week year round. A 3/4 inch to 1 inch sirloin strip steak over high heat 5 to 7 minutes, turning halfway through to be medium rare. Another minute or two to make it medium. I am not physically or emotionally capable of cooking them well done. :)
If you are cooking a whole piece of meat, like a steak, the chances of getting E. Coli is very very small. This is because the steak is a dense muscle that bacteria cannot easily penetrate. Most bacteria would be on any exposed surface that would then be subjected to direct heat that is definitely higher than 160F (which appears to be the cooking temperature to kill any bacteria). So you can have your steak rare (basically seared on the outside) and not worry too much.
Ground meats however is where you want to make sure that you do cook it to well done. The chances for contamination are the highest when meat gets ground. The grinding process exponentially increases the surface that is exposed to bacteria and the chances of cross contamination is really high. Because of this my hamburger is alway well-done whether I'm cooking it at home or ordering it at a restaurant.
I love cooking with propane and my trusty Weber can get as hot as 550F when it's going full-throttle. So heat source is not something to worry about unless it is a weak heat source.
I'm assuming that you are consuming meat from a trusted supplier. For stuff that is going to served rare, I pay the extra money and get it from the higher end markets that have a real butcher counter and high inventory turnover.
(1) Use a digital thermometer. There are too many variables to go by time alone. Beef is considered medium between 135F and 145F. Try pulling 5 degrees (F) before your target temp.
Rest thick steaks 15-20 min., tented or in a warm spot, thin ones 10 min.
Meat is dense and retains heat well. Don't worry about it cooling down too much during resting.
(2) Any bacterial contamination will almost certainly be constrained to the outer surface of a steak and will reach pasteurization temperatures long before the center is done. Ground meat is a different matter.
(3) Above all, avoid cross-contamination from raw meat juices.

"New Narrator"
I loved it
He was a new narrator for this series. He took a little while to warm up. But once he did, he was great.
Action packed
"Great listen"
Fast pace and fast. Not a wasted word. You will cling to the narrators voice for a fast 45 minute ride.
Stephen King seems one of the first people to simply bring this contemporary issue under the light of logic. It is amazing how most people (attmitingly myself included) hang on or have hung on to at least one incorrect assumptions on this debate. Assumptions that have been spoon fed to us by the media, special interest and politicians on self serving missions that happen to be at odds with fixing the problems.
Mr. King throws abucket of water on this issue in a cool, down to earth prose that show how political polarity and otherwise immature childishness has made BOTH SIDES of the arguement hopelessly divided. How thier lack of accountability and misconceptions have lead to lofty goals that are all but inachievable even with full compromise from the other side.

Leprechauns, shamrocks, and wee folk are popular elements of Ireland's delightful legends. Celebrate Irish literature with a stand-up Leprechaun!
During a unit of study on Ireland, invite students to research Irish legends and symbols. Look for leprechauns, wee folk, shamrocks, shillelaghs, and other traditional symbols of Ireland in books, poetry, and music. Read folk tales about leprechauns. Note the ways different artists show these fascinating characters.
Ask students what they think leprechauns look like. On a large piece of construction paper, students use their imaginations to draw a detailed leprechaun using Crayola® Erasable Colored Pencils. Suggest they color his clothing and features with Crayola Crayons. Add Crayola Glitter Glue to make the leprechaun's eyes and other elements sparkle. Dry.
Students cut out their leprechauns with Crayola Scissors. Trace around the outlines on cardboard. Cut it out. Attach the cardboard to the back of the drawing with Crayola No-Run School Glue for support.
On more cardboard, students draw a second pair of feet for their leprechauns. Color both sides. Cut a slit between the leprechaun's feet and slide the second pair of feet into the slit so he can stand upright.
On construction paper create a large shamrock. Cut it out and glue it to the front of the leprechaun.

Blues suffer Ferreira woe
02 Nov 2007 - 16:54:19
Chelsea defender Paulo Ferreira will be sidelined until mid-December after picking up an ankle injury in Wednesday's thrilling Carling Cup victory against Leicester City.
Blues boss Avram Grant has also confirmed that Ashley Cole and John Terry are not expected to return to action for another two weeks.
"They (Cole and Terry) are better, quicker than we thought, but they are not ready yet," Grant told the club's official website.
"I think it will take two or three weeks more. Ashley Cole may be available next week, but JT will take longer.
"Paulo Ferreira is not available and will be out for five or six weeks. He has a problem in his ankle with his ligament.
"We are short but we have a big squad. Paulo was very good in the last six weeks, he played very well in attack and defence, but what can you do?
"He is injured and we have a big squad and good players to replace him, the same as JT and Ashley Cole."

Forum post of the day: Rogues are unhappy {WoW}
Jul 16th 2008 4:00AM They removed the instacast Beastcoil because it would of made it impossible for Feral Druids to fight Hunters (yes some Druids do spec other than resto :P). Shape shifting resets DR on fear (as far as I'm aware, though I must admit I've never tested it), only way to get back to a hunter after a fear is to shape shift out of the inevitable slow which would just lead to being Beastcoiled again until dead.
No class should have an instacast, no cooldown, 30 yard range, reliable CC against another (and before you bring up cyclone – thats 20 yard range, lasts 6 seconds, isn't instacast and is very difficult to use as a Feral).

New York Times can't let WoW duo get away with it {WoW}
Feb 26th 2008 6:35AM I play WoW with my girlfriend. We have two Ally 70s we (mostly) levelled together (me:Warrior, her:Druid) and we're now leveling up a set of Horde alts together (me:Rogue, her:Priest). The only time we've had a problem is that at first when we started playing together I had a Hunter but around 45 I decided it was boring and had to powerlevel a Warrior (which took a bit over a week, she wasn't happy we couldn't play together for that time) to catch up with her Druid.
Other than that it's great fun playing together, much more involving than watching TV. The rule is no playing the characters when we're not together, so we're always at the same level. If we want to play when the other isn't there we have alts for that. If you find solo quests too easy as a group of two make them harder with bigger pulls, as for group quests we've found very few that we couldn't complete between the two of us.

In trying to shield President B. S. Aquino 3rd from any accountability for the death of the 44 Special Action Force police commandos in Mamasapano, Maguindanao, former Philippine National Police chief Alan Purisima virtually immolated himself, took the grand prize for lying, and all but dethroned Beelzebub as "the father of all lies." He claimed total accountability for the fiasco, and tried to whitewash it of any presidential culpability or involvement. But the attempted whitewash failed to wash. Aquino remains stuck where he is.

Funny, a trip down memory lane on this board reminds us that while almost two years ago I was attacked for being a "liberal" and living in a "fantasy world" for pointing out the deep doo-doo that Delay was in. Yes specific Bush partisan hacks like PFEIL, PFinME, FTW, ELO, Turdball, and PWP were so convinced at the time that these were just "partisan attacks" and "liberal fallacies" and here we are.....Delay is crapping his pants, his primary lobbyist Abramoff spilling the beans like a little girl, and Bush and his entire following of cultist sideshow freaks completely rudderless in both foreign and domestic affairs. The rest of you ideological Bush supporters should soil em too. Everything you banked on is crumbling down, and I am absolutely thrilled. Consider it the cold hard hand of justice taking another criminal politician by the shoulder and pointing to the door. They just happen to be REPUBLICANS. Hey, at least he didn't get a blow job, right. (Its astonishing what a bunch of feminized PC-correct bible thumping dildos the GOP has become.) Eat it Delay and the rest of you partisan Bushy hacks. Don't forget- Delay was majority leader- representative of the criminal party in control of the white house, and his demise is one more blow to your grand scheme of rigging elections and stealing our national treasury. His demise shines a brighter light on the criminal alliances of yours...
Hear that sound? That's the gentle sucking sound of hundreds of small, marginally successful businesses heading for New Hampshire. Gotta love unfunded mandates like this. My little company is facing tough times this year and we've been trying to figure out how we can continue to compete with the big boys. This might be the last straw for us...I don't know.
What exactly has he been convicted of? Did I miss something? What he is doing is taking himself out of the equation, sort of taking a hit for the team. He will not be convicted of anything. just like I said. So if you think just because he was accused of wrong doing he should resign, then I suppose that your gal pal Cynthia Mckinney's using taxpayer funds to fly Isaac "Chef no more" Hayes to Atlanta for a few days, she should also resign?
The questions now are who covers the illegal aliens? How many people will no be paid "under the table" in order to keep their jobs? With health care insurance now mandated, no way that the insurance companies raise the rates, I mean if they did, what could you do cancel, oh wait no they would throw you in jail. If anyone would like a copy of the Savannah Morning News' classifieds let me know. Gulfstream is building additional plant and will be hiring 1100 more engineers, et al. Get out now, will the last sane person turn out the lights when they leave.
I guess Al Capone was innocent. I just listened to Tom Delay on Hardball and he sounded like a choirboy. He was adamant that going after Clinton was the right choice, "because he lied under oath". So, when your a congressman, and more importantly, the majority leader, and you bribe your colleagues, that doesn't fall into the lie category? He also continues to trumpet his christianity, which is laughable if you look at his behind the scene actions in dealing with foreign labor. In addition Ted, your telling me he didn't have anything to do with Abramhoff illegal dealings? This is not over for him, his aids that have plead guilty are not going to jail to protect him.
He will never be convicted of anything, even though he took money from Abramhoff. He is our generations Joe McCarthy. A hypocrite to the 'enth degree. A man with no shame cannot be shamed.-Red Buckle
Delay knows what he is doing, now the democrats can't use him for a punching bag all summer, the democrats wanted him to stay so they could use him before the elections, now the people won't care what Uncle Teddy says about him he will be gone. (he will never be convicted of anything). I personnally don't like him but you can't deny, he drove those Dingobats nuts almost as much as the "Hated Bush". Now the Dingobats have another problem, what are they going to do with the Racist that combs her hair with an Eggbeater, Ms Sweety Pie McKinney, none of them dare lay a glove on her, their career's would be over, they know that Belafonte, Glover, NAACP ect would destroy them. McKinney loves all this, she is on the front page, she has a captive audiance to spew her Racist crap and the Democrats can't do a damn thing, she is untouchable, "she is black".

!Mayday!, '!Mayday!' (Southbeat)
- SPIN Rating: of 10
Powered by a frenetic go-go beat, a warm, raspy hook (courtesy of Cee-Lo), and a clever YouTube marketing scheme, Mayday's first single, "Groundhog Day," became a left-field internet hit. The duo's debut album isn't quite as infectious. Their defiantly old-school beats, dark, slinky keyboard melodies, and MC Bernbiz's forceful, if not particularly fluid, rhymes don't always click. But when they do, the results can be memorable enough to make you forget about the lulls.
