From Slow Food to Slow Building: Bringing the Principles of the Slow Movement to Our Housing Choices
Monday, 04 August 2014 13:30
By Maria Klemperer-Johnson
Are you familiar with Slow Food? As a member of GreenStar, you likely know something about the movement that advocates a food system working at a more traditional pace: from production to distribution to consumption. In contrast to fast food, where industrialized processes deplete our environment, disempower workers, and produce unwholesome food, Slow Food creates a richer culture that nourishes consumers, the environment, and the people within the food production and distribution system.
As a builder and educator, I've been contemplating bringing the principles of Slow Food to residential building: Slow Building. What can we achieve by slowing down the process of design and construction, rooting our buildings in local traditions, and considering the impacts of our building choices on us, our environment, and the people working in the system?
Think of the ways that our building choices impact our community. Do they fulfill us personally? Do they sustain or deplete our physical environment? Do they contribute to a socially just economic system?
When making building choices that are nourishing to us personally, we usually think aesthetically. Most of us have made a self-indulgent choice to spend more for the granite countertop, or the extra dormer, or the flat-screen TV. Other less conspicuous, health-oriented choices are also worth making to promote our well-being in the home. We might consider the toxicity of materials, indoor air quality, and the relationship of our homes to our outdoor environment. Taking time to account for both aesthetics and the healthfulness of our homes is one aspect of Slow Building.

GreenStar Community Projects Receives $20K Grant
Friday, 01 August 2014 17:20
By Holly Payne,
GreenStar Community Projects Coordinator
What can a very small non-profit do to address the looming problem of food injustice, in which the current industrialized food system disempowers people — especially those living in poverty — from regularly accessing healthy food grown nearby? GreenStar Community Projects is a small organization with modest means, but it is strategically positioned within a cooperative framework to connect players to the emerging sustainable food system, with the goal of making healthy food accessible to all.
GreenStar Community Projects (GSCP) has just received $20,000 — its largest ever grant — from the Park Foundation to help bring food justice to Tompkins County. We are grateful for this vote of confidence! GSCP will use the money to strategically link diverse players across mainstream boundaries of race and class and across professional sectors, empowering everyone interested to participate in the emerging sustainable food system.
In 2012 and 2013, with start-up support from the Park Foundation, GSCP initiated the work of linking players together by holding regular networking sessions — free and open to all — to strengthen voices less heard and build collaborative efforts for a fair, sustainable food system. Requests for many more sessions have catalyzed continued networking. This year GSCP has already held three sessions, each addressing a different component of the food system: a "Communications Action" session was held in February; a "Business to Business Action" session was held in April; and a "Food Policy Action" session was held in June.
I'm Not a Real Dinner, but I Play One on TV
Monday, 02 June 2014 15:26
By Joe Romano,
Marketing Manager
Don't eat anything advertised on TV.
— Michael Pollan
In late November of 1953, the executives at C.A. Swanson & Sons had the biggest Thanksgiving leftover problem in history. The Omaha, Neb., frozen food company had overestimated the demand for its 1953 Thanksgiving turkey supply, to the tune of over half a million pounds of fresh turkey. With nowhere to store such an amount, the Swanson brothers, Gilbert and Clark, loaded the turkeys into ten refrigerated railroad cars, which had to keep rolling to stay cold.
As the turkeys rode the rails from Omaha to the East Coast and back again, the two brothers gave their staff a challenge — figure out what to do with the birds before they got back.
One of their salesmen, Gerry Thomas, had just returned from the Pan Am kitchens, where he had been given one of their new silver, multi-compartment, airline meal trays as a souvenir. He figured it might be just what the Swansons needed to sell off that turkey. Thomas mocked up a turkey dinner-filled tray and suggested marketing the meals by linking them to the national obsession, television. The box would look like a TV screen, complete with knobs and dials. By the time the turkeys arrived back in Omaha, the TV dinner, a meal that needed no preparation or cleanup, had been born. More important, home-cooked food had successfully been typecast in the role it plays across America today, the inconvenient, annoying, and unimportant sidekick who only earns his keep when he amuses us.

Gr 2-3 - These books are fun for the whole family, but especially beginning readers. They are designed not only to encourage children to read, but also to build confidence as they share the material with their friends. Rosenberg has clearly been listening in school yards or on the playgrounds to find all these great groaners. Baseball Jokesasks, "What does an umpire do before he eats? He brushes off the plate!" Bug Jokesqueries, "Who can leap tall poodles in a single bound? Super Flea!" And there are lots more jokes where those came from.

Niiicee hotel!! The staff is really cool, which is the one thing that always sticks to your mind long after you have departed. Two instances of staff help:
a. We were staying at this hotel at 2 different points on our trip of South America. We asked to leave our bags forr a week at the hotel after our first stay and they were glad to do it.
b. We wanted to do a specific tour in Santiago. We realized at 7:30PM and the tour was from 9PM. The concierge worked with me (because I don't speak Spanish - Anonymous
We chose this hotel as we had stayed here before and it's excellent location just a short walk from the main terminal building was ideal after a long overnight flight from Auckland. The receptionist was very welcoming and did her best to get as a room as we arrived quite early. We were given a room at the back where they are doing some building work and they willingly changed it straight away as we wanted to sleep. We had a meal in the restaurant which was very nice. Our room was clean and comf - Anonymous
I had my bag and passport stolen in Santiago in a restaurant and we went back to the hotel after we had checked out to get a copy of my passport. the staff were super helpful and helped to call round for cancelling my credit cards etc.....and also offered us all a free drink. Great service!!! - Anonymous

Can Fem-HRT Cause Headaches & What To Take For Relief?
Hi - I took my first FemHRT pill last night before bed & woke up with an awful that hasn't gone away all day. It also could be sinus but seemed coincidental since I was fine yesterday. I know HRT can cause headaches but didn't know if it would happen day 1. I took birth control pills for many years but not in the last 15 & don't remember any severe side effects.
I normally take Advil or Tylenol for headaches & they work but I saw this on another site & was afraid to take any today. Any suggestions or can I take my advil? Thanks
The following is from a medical site:
If estrogen is taken with certain other drugs, the effects of either could be increased, decreased, or altered. It is especially important to check with your doctor before combining estrogen with the following:
Acetaminophen (Tylenol)
Clofibrate (Atromid-S)
Cyclosporine (Neoral)
Seizure medications such as Dilantin, Tegretol, and phenobarbital
Steroid medications such as prednisone (Deltasone)
Rifampin (Rifadin)
Temazepam (Restoril)
Theophylline (Theo-Dur)
I took Femhrt for one year and really never had a problem with headaches nor did I ever stop taking Tylenol or Motrin when needed. I think it is too soon for the FemHRT to have that kind of reaction on your body, since you only took one pill. I have not heard that about HRT and headache medicines, but I will ask my doctor next time I visit. I have stopped all HRT now and I did have terrible headaches when I stopped. Now I am feeling better. Good luck. Lou
I started taking Femhrt almost a month ago and am experiencing horrible headaches, with dizziness and nausea. I am considering stopping. I wake up with nauseating headaches and pain behind my eyes and they are very persistent. I am also out of energy most of the time. Does anyone had similar experiences?

Colorado Agriscience Curriculum Section: Plant & Soil Science Unit: Soils Lesson Number: PS U6 L4 Lesson Title: Soil Structure & Texture Colorado Agricultural Education Standards: Ag. II 10.9: The student will demonstrate an understanding of soil fertility and its effect on crop production. Colorado Science Standards: 4.1: Students know and understand the composition of Earth, its history, and the natural processes that shape it. Student Learning Objectives (Enablers) As a result of this lesson, the student will … 1. Identify soil texture and structure. 2. Demonstrate soil texturing through the ribboning method. 3. Identify the various types of soil structure. Time: Instruction time for this lesson: 50 minutes. Resources AgriScience Lesson Plan Library Colorado Land Classification Manual Tools, Equipment, and Supplies Overhead projector or computer with projector PowerPoint: PS U6 L4 Instructor PowerPoint 1 copy per student of PS U6 L4 Student Job Sheet 1 copy per student of Soil Descriptions 1 copy per student of Soil Texture Flow Chart 1 copy per student of Student Evaluation Student Notebooks Soil for texturing Area for texturing Paper towels Water bottle Writing tools 1 Key Terms: The following terms are presented in this lesson and appear in bold italics: Loam Consistence Aggregation Clods Humus Interest Approach Display slide #2 of PS U6 L4 PowerPoint. This slide should be unlabeled to begin the class. Ask the students to look at the slide and think about the various sizes of soil textures. After giving them a few seconds to think it over, ask someone to tell you what all three kinds of texture are. Continue to work with the class to get sand, silt and clay. List those off to the side. Then ask them to use those three texture names to label the various size circles on the overhead. Largest is sand, then silt, then clay. Discuss the size differences and how those differences affect overall structure and texture in the soil. Who can tell me the three types of soil textures? Good ideas. That is correct. The three sizes are sand, silt and clay. Now, let's think about how these three textures relate to each other in size. Which texture goes with the largest circle? That is correct – sand is the largest soil texture. What is the next largest texture? Correct – Silt is the middle size and then clay is the smallest. Very seldom do you find a place where there is pure sand, silt or clay – but it is the mixture of these three sizes of texture that make up various soil textures. Today we are going to look at soil texture and structure and how it all relates to each other. Summary of Content and Teaching Strategies Utilize PS U6 L4 PowerPoint to teach the lesson and have the students take notes. A student problem sheet is included at the end of this lesson plan that could also be used to guide the class discussion. Objective 1: Identify soil texture and structure. & Objective 3: Identify the various types of soil structure. Slide # 3 Soil Texture Soil texture = proportions of sand, silt and clay Property of the soil controlled by the size of individual grains or particles Soil is usually made up of particles of widely varying sizes. Soil texture expresses the average or combined effect of all these grain sizes Slide #4 3 Soil Textures Sand Silt Clay 2 Slide #5 Sand: In the moist condition sand should feel gritty and will be loose and single grained. Squeezed when wet, it will fall apart when the pressure is released Clay: when moist is quite plastic and sticky when wet. When the moist soil is squeezed out between the thumb and fore finger, it will form long flexible ribbons. Silty Soil: when dry and pulverized will feel soft and floury. When wet the soil readily runs together and puddles. When squeezed between the thumb and finger it will ribbon but the ribbon will appear checked and cracked. Discuss the soil triangle on slide #6. If you have given the students handouts of the triangle, it is very effective to ask them to identify a point on the triangle by percentage numbers you write on the board. This will ensure that the students are reading the triangle correctly. Slide #7 Fine Textured Soils Clay Sandy Clay Clay Loam Silty Clay Silty Clay Loam Slide # 8 Medium Textured Soils Sandy Clay Loam Loam Silt Loam Silt Slide #9 Coarse Soils Sand Loamy Sand Sandy Loam Slide #10 Soil Structure the combination or arrangement of primary soil particles into secondary particles, units, or peds (which are separated from adjourning aggregates by surfaces of weakness) Slide #11 Soil Aggregation The cementing or binding together of several soil particles into a secondary unit, aggregate, or granule **clods are different – they are caused by some disturbance such as plowing or digging Discuss local issues about timely tillage here. 3 Slide #12 Consistence The resistance of a material of deformation or rupture – the degree of cohesion or adhesion of the soil mass If available – have samples ready to show students as you talk about the types of structure. Slide #13 Structureless soil Soil where the particles of coarse soil fail to cling together, when fine soil breaks into large clods, or when the soil is massive, a single compacted substance Slide #14 Platy Structure Soil aggregates developed along the horizontal direction: flaky Slide #15 Prismatic Structure A soil structure type with a long vertical axis that is prism shaped, vertical faces are well defined, without rounded caps Slide #16 Columnar Structure Vertically oriented, round-topped structural prisms – rounded caps Slide #17 Granular Structure A natural soil ped or aggregate – have plane or curved surfaces which have slight or no accommodation to the faces of surrounding peds Slide #18 Types of Soil Structure Platy Prismatic Columnar Angular Blocky: Block-like – three dimensions of same magnitude Subangular blocky: same as angular except the vertices are more rounded Granular Crumb: similar to granular except the peds are porous Slide #19 Class of Structure Size of individual ped 4 Slide #20 Good Soil Structure Good Soil Structure: Necessary for good water penetration into the soil Water holding capacity Ease of working the soil Good root penetration Favorable movement of soil air Availability of plant nutrients Good internal drainage Slide #21 Binding Agent in the soil Organic matter converted to humus is the chief binding agent for stable soil structure. Continuous cultivation and never plowing under any organic matter tends to destroy structure Review/Summary Have several soil samples (bags ready) – in the shop or classroom, have the students texture several kinds of soil using the ribboning method. Have them work through the chart and decide on the soil texture. Now that we have learned about the different types of soil texture and structure, let's see how you can do. Please gather around this table. We are going to use the flow chart that tells you how to determine texture. You all need to texture both of these soil types and determine what they are. Does anyone have any questions? Okay – let's get started. Do a demonstration and then work them all through the activity. Application Extended classroom activity: Visit a local area to texture the soil and view structure. FFA activity: Compete in the Land Classification Career Development Event. SAE activity: Have the student evaluate some of their soil at home for texture and structure. You can also have them all bring in a sample bag of soil. If this was assigned during an earlier lesson – it can now be used. Evaluation See the attached sample evaluation. 5 Answers to Assessment: 1. Sand, Silt, Clay 2. Clay, Sandy Clay, Clay Loam, Silty Clay, Silty Clay Loam 3. The binding together of soil particles in a secondary unit 4. Not bond together naturally – caused by a soil disturbance 5.

What binds soil structure together? 7 Soil Texture Flow Chart Soil Texture Soil texture refers to the proportions of sand-, silt- and clay-sized particles in the soil. Soil texture is determined in the field by moistening a soil sample and feeling with the fingers. The following flow diagram may be used to determine soil texture by feel. (source:Thien, SJ. 1979. A flow diagram for teaching texture-by-feel analysis. Journal of Agronomic Education 8:54-55) START: Place approximately 3 tablespoons of soil in palm. Add drops of water and knead the soil to break down aggregates. Soil is at the proper consistency when it is plastic and moldable. If soil is too dry, add more water; if it is too wet, add more soil. NO Does soil remain in a SAND ball when squeezed? Place ball of soil between thumb and forefinger, gently pushing the soil with the thumb and pushing upward to form a ribbon.

LOAM LOAM CLAY NO NO NO Neither Neither grittiness Neither grittiness LOAM grittiness or CLAY or smoothness or smoothness smoothness LOAM predominates CLAY predominates predominates 8 Soil Descriptions The following descriptions are helpful in making texture determinations. Sand – Sand is loose and single-grained; individual grains can be readily seen or felt. Squeezed when dry, it will fall apart when the pressure is released. Squeezed when moist, it will form a cast that will crumble when touched. Sands found in eastern Colorado usually adhere to the hand and need to be brushed off. Loamy sand – Loamy sands generally leave more sand grains adhering to the skin and leave more staining. Moist casts can be handled more freely. This soil texture does not ribbon, but will break with the first push to form a ribbon. Sandy loam - A sandy loam contains more than 50% sand, but has sufficient silt and clay to make it somewhat coherent. Individual sand grains can be readily seen or felt. Squeezed when dry, it forms a cast that stands careful handling. A cast formed from moist soil can be freely handled. Sandy loam ribbons should push out between thumb and forefinger 1 to 4 times. Loam – A loam is a soil that feels as if it has an even mixture of sand, silt and clay. It is mellow with a somewhat gritty feel, yet fairly smooth and slightly plastic. Squeezed when dry, it will forms a cast that will bear careful handling, while the cast formed by squeezing the moist soil can be handled quite freely without breaking. Loam ribbons should push out between thumb and forefinger from 4 to 8 times and the ribbon will show a slight glaze. Silt loam – A silt loam has more than 50% silt, a moderate amount of the fine grades of sand and only a small amount of clay. When dry it may appear cloddy, but the lumps can be readily broken. When pulverized it feels soft and floury. When wet the soil readily runs together and puddles. Either dry or moist it will form casts that can be freely handled without breaking. Silt loam ribbons should push out between thumb and forefinger 4 to 8 times, but will appear checked and will be relatively weak. Ribbons may show a slight glaze. Sandy clay loam – A sandy clay loam has more than 50% sand and approximately 30% clay. Individual sand grains can be seen and felt. Weak, dry casts can be formed and moist casts are strong and distinctly sticky. Ribbons should push out between thumb and forefinger from 6 to 12 times and show a glaze. Clay loam – A clay loam has approximately 35% clay and usually breaks into clods or lumps that are hard when dry. When moist, the soil is sticky and plastic and will form a cast that will bear much handling. When kneaded in the hand it does not crumble readily but tends to work into a heavy compact mass. Ribbons will push out between thumb and forefinger 8 to 12 times, have a glazed surface, and retain finger or thumb prints. The ribbon is usually thin and will break readily, barely sustaining its own weight. Silty clay loam – A silty clay loam differs from a clay loam in having less than 20% sand, a smoother, more floury feel, and a lesser glaze on the ribbon. Ribbons will push out between thumb and forefinger 8 to 12 times. Clay – A clay contains more than 50% clay-sized particles. The soil forms very hard clods when dry and is very plastic and usually sticky when wet. Ribbons will push out between thumb and forefinger at least 8-12 times, have a very distinct glaze, and retain distinct finger or thumb prints. Sandy clay – A sandy clay has less than 20% silt and more than 35% clay. The soil is very similar to clay but feels gritty. Ribbons will push out between thumb and forefinger 8-12 times, and grains will stand out from the glazed surface. Silty clay – A silty clay has less than 20% sand. Because it contains more than 40% silt, it is smoother to the touch and less sticky when moist than clay. Ribbons will push out between thumb and forefinger 8-12 times and show a glaze. 9 Soil Triangle FINE COARSE MEDIUM For the purpose of the land judging contest, soil textures will be grouped as noted on the texture triangle, above, and written below. TEXTURE CLASSES ______________________________________________________________________________ FINE clay (C), sandy clay (SC), clay loam (CL), silty clay (SiC), silty clay loam (SiCL) MEDIUM sandy clay loam (SCL), loam (L), silt loam (SiL), silt (Si) COARSE sand (S), loamy sand (LS), sandy loam (SL) 10 Soil Texture & Structure Student Evaluation Name: _______________________________________ Date: _______________ 1.

I just fished reading Axiom by Bill Hybels with a handful of the leadership team at Central. In it, Bill compiles thirty plus years of ministry and leadership insights into short little phrases. Each chapter captures an idea and gives some perspective on why Bill lives by it. Depending on your context, many of these will directly apply to you and others won't. Taken collectively it is a very practical look at leadership in the trenches.
Here are some of my favorite quotes from the book:
January is quickly approaching and that means a new year to try new things or begin anew on things that you trailed off with in 2013. I would encourage you now to consider reading through the Bible in 2014. Sadly, few people ever read it cover to cover due to its size but it is completely manageable. The trick is to intentionally pick a reading plan and make it a natural part of your routine each day. When read daily it will balance your perspective and ground you in God's Truth no matter what each day brings. Even greater is the perspective you get from reading year after year and seeing things you've never noticed before.
Those of you who have followed my blog for years now know that I pick a new reading plan and a new Bible translation each year. This is to stretch me and keep me from setting into a rut. This is the same concept as muscle confusion for those of you workout-nerds among us. One of the reasons this is recommended for physical workouts is that "The body should never be allowed to accommodate to an exercise to the point where the exercise is ineffective and results are no longer seen." The same is true of your mind, heart, and soul when it comes to experiencing God's Word. Sadly, many people either don't read through the Bible or read it and don't ever get much out of it. I've found that changing reading plans and changing translations each year are great ways to enhance your time spent reading.
Click here to see which reading plans and translations I've used in past years.
In any case, it is time to relocate 'theology'. Not to marginalize it, as though the study of everything else (especially sociology) is real' and theology is to be dismissed as irrelevant theory; as we shall see, that would be a disastrous mistake in relation to Paul in particular. In fact, one of the extraordinary achievements of Paul was to turn 'theology' into a different kind of thing from what it had been before in the world either of the Jews or of the pagans. One of the central arguments of the present book is that this was the direct result and corollary of what had happened to Paul's worldview. Paul effectively invented 'Christian theology' to meet a previously unknown need, to do a job which had not, until then, been necessary. If the reason for studying worldviews is the recognition that life is complex, multi-layered, and driven by often hidden energies, the method for such study must be appropriate to that quest.
N.T. Wright, Paul and the Faithfulness of God
When I went to Israel in January of this year, I blogged about a lot and read a lot of books on it. Apart from one book I read called The Lemon Tree, focusing on the Palestinian aspect of Israel's history, the rest of them focused on Israel and the land. I didn't particularly like The Lemon Tree as a book, so I didn't dwell all that much on what was in it. Recently, I was recommended to read a book called Blood Brothers that is essentially the same type of perspective as The Lemon Tree, but it is a ten times better book. It is an absolutely gripping story of Elias Chacour and offers a Palestinian perspective. More than just a retelling of facts, it provides a profoundly helpful conclusion as to what we are to make of things today. I would strongly recommend this book to anyone as it will open your eyes to the Israeli/Palestinian tensions but also to tensions of humanity in general.
Here are some of my favorite quotes from the book (notice the theme of dignity):
It is extraordinary how a voice from our childhood, even one word spoken at a crucial moment, can bury itself inside only to reveal its simple wisdom in a crisis our adult minds cannot begin to fathom.
peace can never be achieved by violence; violence begets more violence. For the first time, I saw clearly the face of my true enemy and the enemy of all who are friends of God and of peace. It was not the Zionists, but the demon of militarism.

tomato plant turning black
Hello, I have a tomato plant that is turning black on some of the stems and edges of the leaves. Is there something to help this or is it just too late in the season?
Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.
Hi monkeytreeboy15,
Can you post pictures? A close up or two of the black area and a general one of the overall plant would be very helpful so that someone could give you an idea what the issue is with your tomato plant. Let us know if you need directions on how to post a photo.
Below is a link to a diagnostic page that can help if you can't post a picture.
Here is a link that might be useful: Tomato Problem Solver (Photos for Diagnostics)
I might have the same thing on some of mine. I tried looking it up, but couldn't find it anywhere. Is it like a black powder, starting on the edge of the leaves? I think it's some kind of mold, since I think I have some mold allergies. And I notice the effects after I've been working in that garden for a while. It doesn't seem to affect the fruit. I'm just keeping an eye on mine, and so far it hasn't been a huge problem. So I'm just being careful, and trying not to spread it around.

Besonders schoen war die Atmosphaere in diesem historischen Gebaeude, welches dem Castel Peles nachempfunden ist. - Daniel
The hotel is located in the city-center. Receptionist was very friendly and responded promptly to all inquiries. The hotel room was clean, airy, well equipped and well soundproofed. The bathroom was clean, with tub shower and well equipped, including hairdryer and, upon request, with a razor. Price / quality ratio very good. - Anonymous
This hotel and the staff are top notch! The staff were exceedingly helpful and went beyond expectations. e.g.: my son's luggage did not arrive in Bucharest. We had a phone number there to on the luggage. The woman at the reservation desk continued to call the number to check on the status of our luggage -- helped us avoid long distance phone charges. An easy walk to Peles castle and to town. - Elaine
Location was great,close to the main street but really quiet and with a
great view to the mountains and the gondola. The staff was very
friendly and helpful,with very good manners and displaying a
professional attitude. We got breakfast in the room without any charge
for the room service; all we had to do was to choose a menu the night
before and got it delivered right on our table at the exact time we had
requested. Everything was just perfect from the moment we arrived; the
receptionist was a - Anonymous
clean and pleasant place, equipped kitchen, good price - David
High quality staff and excelent service. The room accomodation and the surroundings of the hotel are luxurios. It has a wonderful garden and tasty food is served at the restaurant. Also, spa services are entirely free for customers. Overall, an excelent place to go and enjoy with your family. Surely we shall come back soon. - Anonymous
Great location, a little away from it all. You can access it from 2 different locations. If you drive up the road that leads to the castle its a bit awkward, but legal. There is a back entrance that is great access to the rest of the village. - Anonymous
The personnel was very helpful, althought they didn't speak anythink but romanian. But with drawing and common body languge we got all infor what we needed - Anonymous
Very nice Hotel, friendly and a very good and warm athmosphere, Perfect staff !!!!! - Anonymous
Recently and beautifully remodeled, very clean, good breakfast buffet, helpful staff at the reception and in the restaurants, beautiful view (our room faced the city). It's good to see this older but very nicely located hotel finally fulfiling its potential. - Anonymous

Castlevania Bloodlines is a platform game developed and published by Konami for the Sega in 1994. It is the only Castlevania video game released on the Mega DriveGenesis. In 1897, the long war between humanity and Dracula came to an end, as Dracula was laid to eternal rest by Quincey Morris, a distant descendant of the Belmont family. Peace was restored to Europe, until the outbreak of the First World War, which transformed the continent into a dark world filled with massacre and violence. At the beginning of the war, on June 1914 at Sarajevo, the Crown Prince of Austria was assassinated. It was said that a strange beautiful woman was involved, within the shadows. It was Elizabeth Bartley. In order to revive her uncle, Count Dracula, she conducted an unholy ceremony which caused the war, giving her possession of human souls from Europe. The game itself takes place in 1917. The characters are John Morris, a distant descendant of the famed Belmont and Morris families who obeyed his fate to fight vampires day and night, and Eric Lecarde, whose girlfriend was transformed into a vampire when Elizabeth was revived. After Drolta Tzuentes resurrected Elizabeth Bartley, they travelled across Europe to conduct the resurrection of Count Dracula. John Morris and Eric Lecarde followed them. Even though the resurrection of Dracula was a success, the vampire hunters defeated him, and his allies. As with most early Castlevania games, players proceed through each level, defeating enemies and collecting gems and power weapons. Each stage is sectioned, and has a sub-boss battle in the middle, with a main boss battle at the end. Some items will increase the power of the characters weapons. Some portions of the game split into different paths, depending on which character is chosen. John is able to swing past huge gaps with his whip, whereas Eric must use a different route by performing high jumps by using his spear. Bloodline is also noteworthy for its abundance of special effects, such as the Atlantis Shrine's water reflections, the swaying tower of Pisa, and large multi-jointed bosses. The final stage even uses effects to add challenge, such as playing upside-down or playing while the screen divides up into sections. The legendary vampire Elizabeth Bartley, Dracula 's niece, suddenly appears in the 20th century. Plotting a sacrificial war in order to bring her uncle back to life, she orchestrates the beginning of World War I. Quincy Morris ' son, John, and his best friend Eric Lecarde, vow to take up the fight against evil. Together they manage to prevent Dracula 's full resurrection

It's Taste of Country Radio, Not the Taste of Country Inn … Right?
A caller thinks she's calling the hotel she stayed at the previous night, and wants to know where her blue jeans and t-shirt are.
A caller thinks she's calling the hotel she stayed at the previous night, and wants to know where her blue jeans and t-shirt are.
The lesson we all learned from Friday night's show, don't mess with Taste of Country Nights' host Jeremy Robinson's dinner, or his wallet. He makes a bet that his mouth is willing and able to back up.
Listen to Jeremy's $100 B
What was that lyric again? "Hey-ho-oh-who-now?" A new game called Lyrical Pursuit tasks listeners with coming up with the title of a song read by engineer Chris. His recreations are something to behold.
Justin Moore made quick work of JB and the Moonshine Band on Thursday night. Fan support allowed his new song "Til My Last Day' to topple the Texas quartet with a big push coming during the Taste of Country Nights radio show. Moore's followers are united in saying the thought-provoking lyric is amongst the best he's released to radio.
This guy gives the worst excuse ever after being accused of driving under the influence. The Taste of Country Nights team thinks this story is a "Croc" (ba-dum-dum).
Yesterday's battle of Texas country quartets left only one as champion. 'No Better Than This' is the current king, meaning the uptempo new song from JB and the Moonshine Band will face a new challenger today and tonight on Taste of Country Nights radio. Remember, you can vote every hour online, as well as on the phone after 7PM by calling the Taste of Country Nights studio at (888) 678-9995.
Taste of Country Nights host Jeremy Robinson and producer Todd found Cecilia to play the fun new game Sing the Rest. It didn't really work out how the guys were planning, with the Texas teen acing the quiz. Listen below for all the fun from Tuesday night's show.
Fans of Eli Young Band pulled off one of the greatest Showdown upsets of all time on Tuesday. The group's new single 'Say Goodnight' topped Taylor Swift's brand new single from her upcoming 'Red' album, 'We Are Never Ever Getting Back Together.' That makes it three in a row for the Texas foursome's love ballad. Two more and it will be retired to the Taste of Country Showdown Hall of Fame.
Last night, the Eli Young Band and newcomer Chelsea Bain traded blows until the final minutes of the Showdown on Taste of Country Nights radio. Each artist rallied their fans to support their new song, but in the end, the new ballad from the Texas foursome notched just a few more votes than Bain's 'What if I.'
Eli Young Band may not be far removed from their search for country stardom, but their fans took no pity on newcomer Jon Pardi. The Texas group's new song 'Say Goodnight' topped 'Missin" You Crazy' to earn another spin on Taste of Country Nights radio and more votes from fans on Taste of Country.

PER Diem: Dec. 12, 2008
So why can't we just give Cleveland the NBA crown right now? Well, because the C's and Lakers have something to say about it.
Dear John: Even if those computers in Bristol run each game of the season 5,000 times, giving the LeBron's a 50 percent chance of winning the Finals is absurd. I'm an unbiased basketball fan, but there is no way the odds could possibly be that disproportional between the Celtics and Cavaliers. -- Mike
John Hollinger answers five more mailbag questions heading into Friday's action. Insider
• How is Derrick Rose's PER not higher?
• Mavs ahead of Magic in Playoff Odds?
• Melo isn't an All-Star? How is that possible?
• Do Suns have a roster-coach mismatch?
• Smart move to trade Carlos Boozer?
Dear John: Even if those computers in Bristol run each game of the season 5,000 times, giving the LeBron's a 50 percent chance of winning the Finals is absurd. I'm an unbiased basketball fan, but there is no way the odds could possibly be that disproportional between the Celtics and Cavaliers. -- Mike
Several letters along the lines of this one have filled my mailbag recently, and not all of them have been from crazed Celtics fans. According to Friday's Playoff Odds, the Cavs have a 54.5 percent chance of winning the NBA title, compared to just 23.5 percent for the defending champion Celtics.
In their mostly forgettable 38-year history, the Cavs have never won a game in the Finals, and even last season, they were a pretty average team. As a result, fans have had trouble getting their arms around the idea that Cleveland suddenly could be an unstoppable juggernaut.
So picture me grabbing you by the shoulders and shaking you while I say, "Cleveland suddenly is an unstoppable juggernaut."
The standings don't make this completely clear, because Boston is still a game ahead of Cleveland and beat the Cavs by five on opening day. In fact, the Celtics are working on a pretty impressive season of their own that could see them match last season's win total (66).
Based on that, you'd think the Playoff Odds would project Boston to repeat as champion. And if this were last season, they would.
But there's a teeny little problem: Out of the blue, the Cavs are having a season for the ages. Cleveland's plus-13.4 average victory margin this season, if it holds up, would be the best of all time in the league. And here's a scary thought -- it could get better. The Cavs still have 10 games left against the six bottom-feeders in the West.
At the moment, Boston is the only thing preventing the Cavs from another awesome accomplishment -- becoming the second team in history to lead the league in both offensive efficiency and defensive efficiency in the same season. Only the legendary 1995-96 Bulls managed that feat, but Cleveland is mighty close.
Thanks to recent acquisitions like Mo Williams, Delonte West and Wally Szczerbiak, LeBron James suddenly is surrounded by deadly midrange shooters. As a result, Cleveland leads the league with an offensive efficiency mark of 112.0, well ahead of second-place Portland's 110.2 -- an impressive turnaround for a unit that was below the league average last season.
But the Cavs have done it without sacrificing D -- even though Williams was about as apathetic a defender as you'll ever see last season in Milwaukee. The Cavs' 96.8 defensive efficiency mark is well ahead of that of every other team in the league except one. That one would be Boston -- with a 95.4 defensive efficiency mark -- which cemented its grip on the top spot in Thursday's 122-88 rout of Washington.
With such impressive results so far, it's no wonder the Playoff Odds like the Cavs so much. The amazing part isn't that they come out favored over Boston; it's that the Lakers and the Celtics are themselves so strong that in half the scenarios, Cleveland fails to win the title. In almost any other season, we'd already be planning the parade route.

I really enjoy cooking from this book. I especially recommend William Schatner's dip and Montel William's healthy, low fat entree. This book includes a varity of recipes, from low fat to decadent. It includes recipes from celebs like the B-52s, the band Goldfinger, Chrissy Hynde, and Charlize Theron. It is all meatless but you don't notice it.Was this review helpful? Yes NoThank you for your feedback. Report this reviewThank you, this review has been flagged.

It seems as if Lala's wearing a lot of star-printed pieces these days. Reader Felicia was particularly feeling the star print blouse the TV personality was wearing out and about with her hubby. She said, "I love this blouse, please can you tell me who made it?"
When I saw the blouse, I immediately said "Topshop" turns out my initial guess was correct! Lala is wearing the retailer's now sold out Fluorescent Star Print blouse.
Not to worry! Topshop has a similar tee from British brand Tee and Cake. You can get it for $44 here:
I'm more interested in the shoes
Shoes are from Zara. They were on sale. They MIGHT be available in stores, but I doubt it at this point, since most of the stores are pretty much out of their sale stock. You can still try!
Happy we wil be able to shop Zara online soon!!
Carmelo making me wanna buy those true blue 3s for my man tho!
I went and purchased some JEM and the Holgrams Earrings… In pink and white… They really bring out the kid in me… I Love them!
Shop online at Zara??? WHEN??? Somebody tell me when!!!
Happy to say I have those shoes. Happier to know that the stars of them too. SCORE!!!!
@Madpet September 7th
I cant wait until September 7th….wish I could make a wishlist of everything I want on Zara and go straight to checkout lol
Lala really needs to invest in the proper undergarments….But cute look…
hmmm I would buy it if it was 13 dollars….
Damn Lala is seriously making regret not getting those shoes when I had the chance! And they were on sale I think :( womb
Those shoes are very happy. Adore the colour especially.
Lala looks a mess as usual. You can get one of those cheap shirts out of JcPenny or another department store.
The other option is cute, but just not the same : (
On the other hand… those shoes! Must Have!

|Return/Replacement policy:
"I have now ordered a tv stand, a linen cabinet, hampers, and a double vanity. I love this place. There is a wide selection, beautiful items at a fair price. The assembly part is difficult but that's the same as all other furnitures delivered. Delivery is prompt. I would definitely order from this website again. "
"Fortunately and unfortunately, I did not check resellerratings before ordering. Ordered 2 items (furniture). Received both within reasonable time. Put together the first item. Beatiful, just as advertised. I could not be happier. Started to put together the 2nd item. This one consisted of 12 parts. Found 2 parts broken. Called customer service around 1/25. They were nice and offered to ship replacements. 2/1 asked where the shipment was, was told would ship 2/5. Shipped 2/7. Received 2/10. strated to put together the item again, found 2 more damaged parts. Requested replacement today, 2/11 sunday, will see what happens. Will update when receive.
All in all not altogether bad experience. One item is very nice, the other regardless of damaged parts is nice too. Customer service was show but nice. Damage to the parts is dissapointing."
"I ordered two rugs from this company on Nov. 20th. The items showed in stock. On Nov. 28th I received another email stating they experienced a delay in shipping the items and they would ship on Dec. 28th. I logged in over the weekend to check on the status of my order and it still showed the 28th as the ship date.
I emailed to inquire and was told that my order was cancelled. Logging in today, I find that my status has changed to cancelled with a cancel date of 12/21/2006.
Avoid these scammers at all costs."
"On 11/20 I ordered a wall plaque using a promotional code. I received a ship date of 12/12. On 12/17 I received a delayed shipment notice with a ship date of 1/16. I contacted the company on 12/17 to understand why I wasn't contacted that the item was to be delayed since it was to be a Christmas gift. On 12/18 I received an email stating my order was on hold. I was not told why. They asked a question about the promotional code and stated it was for marketing purposes. On 12/21 the company canceled my order without contacting me. "
"Excellent product, delivery and communication.
I had a question about the look of a certain rug I was ordering and they got back to me within 1 business day (on a weekend at that!).
The rugs arrived in less than a week and the quality is outstanding.
I am very happy with my purchase and have just ordered 2 more rugs today."
"They were horrible to deal with and did not honor their sales. Boo...I will never deal with them again. "
"This company does not stand by its word. I placed an order on Nov 20 and received a confirmation. When I hadn't received the item, I checked the website to find that they had increased the price I was being charged AND had estimated the time of shipment as Dec 28!!!!! It's a Christmas gift!
Really unfortunate for this company, as I intend to tell anyone who will listen how unreliable they are. "
"Didnt honor the coupon even though it got accepted in the website. Took a week and then cancelled the complete order. Would never order anything from them again."
"It is a bad business practice and I dont want to have anything to do with this company that does a 'bait and switch' using their own coupons and then disqualifing them.
"The company kept sending me updates on the delivery date of one of the items in my order moving further and further. When after a month I called them up and inquired about the final shipping date and my other items, they told me that the order is "on hold", that they weren't going to honor the discount they originally offered and requested a new payment (increase of $60 total between two orders). I have to agree with a poster here - this is definitely bait and switch practice."
"Ordered a large area rug - not online, but by phone so I could take advantage of a special offer of a free runner of the same design, a freebie that was not available when ordering online for some reason.
Shipping was fast; rug arrived in four days, and it's a beautiful thing, quality construction and much nicer than the pictures. The free runner was not included, however, but after a call to their toll-free number, was assured that rug would be sent soon. An oversight apparently by the manufacturer, who drop-shipped this item. All in all, no big deal.

Talk:John La Farge
|This article is of interest to the following WikiProjects:
I just cut this section out and would be glad to replace it following a bit of reference or confirmation or . . . ... . something. Carptrash 04:07, 22 February 2006 (UTC)
- LaFarge was also a revolutionary in the culinary arts. just a few of his edible works include boston cream donuts, marshmellows (which he called fluff pockets), and undoubtedly his most influential culinary delight, the chocolate-chip cookie, which he created accidentally when he forgot to add baking soda to a cake.
Error in LaFarge article[edit]
Below is from the article on John LaFarge.
"Born in New York City, New York, his interest in art was aroused during his training at Mount Saint Mary College and Fordham University."
It is incorrect that he went to Mount Saint Mary College in New York. He attended Mount St. Mary's University in Emmitsburg, Maryland. Please make this change in the article and change the linked information to the article on Mount St. Mary's University.
Thank you,
18.104.22.168 19:40, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
LaFarge or La Farge?[edit]
Both seem to be widely used. Which is more correct, does anyone know? --Stormie (talk) 06:27, 10 July 2008 (UTC)
- 99% of the work I am finding calls him John La Farge. I'm going to be bold and redirect and update this. Missvain (talk) 17:44, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
- Royal Cortissoz, in the earliest memoir on L Farge (1911) that I am aware of, uses La Farge, as does the 1989 work by, among others, [[Henry Adams and Henry A. La Farge. Carptrash (talk) 18:00, 28 October 2014 (UTC)
The article says that LaFarge is venerated as a saint of the Episcopal Church in the United States of the Anglican Communion.. but it goes on to say his son became a Roman Catholic priest. I know that Anglican saints are not always Anglican (ex: St. Francis, Martin Luther, John Wesley, etc), but do we know what religion LaFarge was? I would guess Catholic, but wikipedia is not for guessing.. --Willthacheerleader18 (talk) 22:31, 19 September 2010 (UTC)
- John LaFarge was born, lived and died a Roman Catholic. (references upon request) Einar aka Carptrash (talk) 15:16, 28 September 2010 (UTC)

It is a very entertaining movie with great acting, a great story, and good flow.
This is one of those if you read the books you will have a barely enjoyable time watching the movie but if you hadn't then you would probably really like it.
I am also a fan of "The Hunger Games" series and have read those books many times.
If you like the Hunger Games, Maze Runner or Harry Potter, you'll like Divergent. For me and my wife it's just OK but for our 20 year old daughter it was great. Read morePublished 2 hours ago by The Tech Guy

A slow evolving romance set in the China Seas, where important clues/facts are revealed just at the appropriate time. A young woman and man of two totally differant backgrounds meet under common necessities. Unlike other novels of this period the author doesn't try to impress with his vocabulary. Would give 5 stars except the ending got a little congested but happy.
A good read of Joe Newbolt whose mother is tricked into selling him into bondage by a cruel farmer. Joe is accused of murder and must make a honorable decision to keep from hanging. Not as much unnecessary verb age as most novels during this period.
This book is one that was fun to read. I had the complete set of the Air Service Books - Originals.
They are as exciting today as they were for me 20 some odd years.
An easy and enjoyable read of adventure and romance. Characters could be stronger but great plot. A great book to curl up with on a rainy day.

The second annual World Water-Tech North America Summit, the fifth event in the World Water-Tech series, gathered the key stakeholders from every part of the water value chain. Hosted by Rethink Events and WaterTAP Ontario, the event provided a dynamic meeting place for the growing international water-tech community.
World Water-Tech North America featured utility and industrial leaders from around the world, sharing their experiences of developing and commercializing new water technologies and the impact that these technologies have had on their business and bottom line.
Over the two days of plenary sessions, delegates heard from speakers on:
Half-Day Site Visit:
Prior to the summit, delegates met for an educational visit to one of Ontario's flagship water/wastewater treatment facilities, hosted by WaterTAP Ontario
Half-Day Interactive Workshop: Do you and your technology have what it takes to get investment?
Prior to the summit, delegates heard from government, strategic investors, venture capital firms and companies who have successfully developed and sold technologies and learned how to structure their company, how to identify the right investors and partners for their business and what strategies to consider when looking to commercialize their water technology
1:1 meetingsTweets by @WorldWaterTech
Throughout the three days of World Water-Tech, the online bookings system offered all attendees a sneak preview at other participants before the event and helped delegates to prepare and plan their time to best effect

An Unstructured Semantic Mesh Definition Suitable for Finite Element Method
M. Gayer,
H. Niemisto
T. Karhela
[Show abstract]
[Hide abstract]
Numerical methods, such as finite element method (FEM), are widely used for computations on meshes in variety of simulation related software applications. As these methods become more popular in engineering, also information management requirements for these models are growing. Neutral data formats and standards are needed in order to achieve vendor independence and transformation between different tools. Semantic data modelling is one modern and potential technique that can be used for this purpose. In this paper, we propose our Semantic mesh data structure that can be used in development of semantic software applications, which use meshes. The proposed structure is universal and can be used for representing meshes used in wide number of popular FEM applications such as e.g. Abaqus FEA, I-DEAS or MSC Adams. Our Semantic mesh proposal can be also used for mesh based simulations with other methods than FEM, such as e.g. finite volume method used in computational fluid dynamics (CFD). Also it can be used outside focus of numerical simulations, e.g. for projects related to scientific data visualization and computer graphics. We provide a description of our Semantic mesh, together with an example of a very simple 2D mesh, illustrating our proposal. The implementation is using the semantic database in Simantics software platform.

A Software Platform for Nanoscale Device Simulation and Visualization
Marek Gayer,
Giuseppe Iannaccone
[Show abstract]
[Hide abstract]
NanoFEM platform is a new research environment based on the finite element method (FEM) for Technology CAD (TCAD) simulation and visualization of nanoscale devices, such as MOSFET transistors. The simulation in NanoFEM platform is based on solving partial differential equations corresponding to physical processes in modelled devices. A user or developer can provide these equations in a variational form format, and can define solver modules based on a FEM library with ability of automatic generation of finite elements and finite element forms. Solver modules can define fields for simulation and visualization and boundary conditions. Simple boundary conditions and material properties can also be specified directly in the graphical user interface. Geometry for the solved case can be defined either in graphical user interface or using Python scripting. Quality tetrahedral meshes necessary for FEM simulations are generated automatically. Visualization and post-processing is available in graphical user interface. We present some of related major existing solutions, namely open source geometry editors, mesh generators, computation libraries and visualization tools for FEM. We discuss major software components of the NanoFEM platform, i.e. Salome Platform and DOLFIN/FEniCS. We present an example simulation and visualization in NanoFEM platform. This is a simulation of the Poisson's equation on a 3D structure consisting of several geometry groups and materials forming a FinFET transistor with a mesh consisting of hundreds of thousands tetrahedrons. Because NanoFEM platform consists almost entirely of open source software components, others could eventually build similar solutions including, but not limited to TCAD device simulations after reading and reviewing the NanoFEM platform design and components.

A Simulation Framework for Testing Flow Control Strategies
Marek Gayer,
Milan Milovanovic
Ole Morten Aamo
[Show abstract]
[Hide abstract]
We present a framework dedicated for simulation and con-trol of incompressible fluid flows. The simulation is based on the Navier-Stokes model with possible control actua-tion from a customizable control module. We describe components of our simulation architecture: Computational Fluid Dynamics (CFD) code VISTA featuring a Navier-Stokes solver, Utility library with shared functionality for customizable Flow Control modules and the configuration system allowing to define separate simulation cases. Flow Control modules are responsible for performing control calculations, reading flow fields values, actuation, storing results for post-processing in each time step. By creating new Flow control modules, we can simulate different flow control behaviour and strategies. The simulation solution and it's components are realized in C++ using VISTA and Diffpack API. We present a case study based on this frame-work, where the objective is to suppress vortex shedding around cylinders in the 2D space domain by feedback con-trol based module with kernel coefficients pre-calculated in MATLAB using Ginzburg-Landau model.
