A mid-morning stroll to a protected forest retreat. That relaxing break in a remote beachside café. Find your paradise with a holiday to St. Kitts. Book by 26 May.
If the bustle of some of the larger Caribbean islands doesn't appeal, then consider the small but perfectly formed gems that are St Kitts and Nevis. These modest neighbours offer an unspoilt paradise of traditional charm, natural splendour and beach bliss.
Escape the throng and step into the Caribbean of the past on beautiful St Kitts. Explore sleepy villages and take in rolling sugar cane fields dotted with ramshackle former plantation buildings or magnificent historic great houses. Stretch out on the soft sands of a secluded bay or soak up the atmosphere at one of the buzzing beach bars in lively Frigate Bay. Or visit the neighbouring island of Nevis, where once again time has all but stood still to preserve the unique beauty and tranquillity of this verdant oasis. From majestic Nevis Peak to the pristine shores lapped by clear turquoise waters – scenic glory abounds in Nevis. Little wonder it is known as the 'Queen of the Caribees'.
Take to the crystal-clear Caribbean waters and discover the beauty of St Kitts during this exhilarating kayaking and snorkelling adventure. You'll meet your tour guide for a kayak lesson and safety briefing before enjoying a 45-minute ride, taking in dramatic cliffs and beautiful remote bays. See fascinating local wildlife including turtles and vervet monkeys. You'll then explore the amazing underwater world of the Caribbean, filled with exotic fish and marine creatures, on a thrilling snorkelling expedition.
Take in the essential sights of beautiful St Kitts and explore its rich cultural heritage on this island tour. Your first stop is the capital of Basseterre, for some shopping in this historic city. Then enjoy wonderful scenery on the drive to magnificent Romney Manor, formerly home of the Caribelle Batik sugar plantation and set in stunning gardens. From there it's on to the spectacular Brimstone Hill Fortress National Park, before your tour concludes at the dramatic Black Rocks.
Experience the eco-adventure of a lifetime on this 3.5 hour guided walking tour through the rain forest of St Kitts. You'll be amazed at the exotic flora and fauna that this stunning island has to offer – including tropical birds and playful green vervet monkeys. After a scenic drive through the rain forest outskirts, you'll continue on foot to experience its amazing scenery first-hand while learning about this fascinating habitat from your knowledgeable guide. Your walk concludes with some light refreshments.
Experience the beauty and tranquillity of Nevis, known as the 'Queen of the Caribees' on this comprehensive tour. Your expedition begins with a 45-minute ferry ride around the island, accompanied by a professional guide. Next, explore the history and heritage of Nevis during visits to important attractions including the Museum of Nevis, as well as the sites of former sugar plantations. Take in the awe-inspiring 3,232ft extinct volcano and beautiful Botanical Gardens before your tour concludes with a little shopping.
Experience the spectacular scenery of St Kitts on this unforgettable hiking adventure to the top of Mt. Liamuiga, an extinct volcano.

An Introduction to Designing for Imperfection
I've been designing, both in print and digital, for over twenty years.
Lately I've been feeling that for much of that time I have done a more mediocre job than most clients and users give me credit for, and have, in many ways, lucked out when I make good designs.
For about six years now I have worked as a UX designer for agencies, and as a consultant. Working and talking with many different people, for many different organizations, I have heard a lot of people express similar feelings. We don't really know how to get to good design, and tend to rely on hiring more good people and hoping for the best.
It seems like many strict processes don't turn out reliably good results, no matter how long they take. Why is that?
Designing for Perfection
What I'll call the traditional way to design is to address every possible aspect of the system and to seek perfection in everything. I have watched this method grow out of print media—where everything was at fixed scale and of reasonable depth—and classic human factors—which uses very intense analysis to build controls for mechanical systems like those found in aircraft, where failure is more often than not a real catastrophe.
If you think you are cutting edge because you do digital design, you may need to think again. Anyone designing in Photoshop or Fireworks embraces this same print-era pursuit of perfection when they draw a precise comp for every screen of an app or site. In mobile design I see anything from two to seven comps drawn for each page, as the same precision is exercised for each screen size or aspect ratio. Designing for iOS only? You still need iPhone 4S and below, iPhone 5, and iPad, in each orientation—minimum.
Technical design and information architecture also fall into this trap with processes based around use case analysis. Even if your process or organization doesn't strictly do that, or calls it something other than a use case, the principle is the same: you're seeking to understand and control every aspect of the system. Lists of use cases are generally hundreds of items long, and each has to be addressed with clearly defined system behaviors.
Iterating for Efficiency
Aside from the large size of these deliverables, this traditional approach doesn't work for a couple reasons. First, systems are far too complex and diverse (or fragmented if you wish). It is mathematically impractical to address every use case, so we fake it and pick a few on the happy path of the most likely cases. When considering the available combinations of choices a user could truly make on many systems, combinatorial variations are in the billions. I did some rough math on one project and determined the documentation and analysis would take longer than the course of human history up to that time to complete. (If you take, say, 100 functional modes that can be combined uniformly, and work without serious breaks and get approval from your product owner quickly, then it would have taken over 8,000 years to specify every possible state.)
"Fail faster" and similar iterative-centric buzzwords only work well in scientific disciplines
Pixel-perfect design is likewise impossible in this diverse environment; in just a single month late last year I did a quick survey and found around 40 newly-launched mobile handsets or tablets with 40 different screen sizes and almost 30 different resolutions. It would take years to design for every one of these screen sizes, and the very next week the world has already moved on with more devices launched. Insisting that one platform is best and ignoring the others is not the answer, by the way, and seems to be leading to lots of apps that don't even work when you rotate the screen.
The current, state-of-the-art processes for addressing these concerns involves various iterative methodologies, such as Agile. These are mostly development processes applied (or forced) onto UX design disciplines that focus on breaking work up into smaller chunks. In principle, each deliverable is something that can be analyzed or designed, and complexity emerges over time in a controlled manner as iterations add to it. In practice, many of these methodologies become simply incremental processes, which means the same work as always is now done in phases.
Lean methods build on these with principles of doing the most important work first, and allowing products to evolve organically. Practically, these approaches end up disregarding design and, seeking speed over quality, don't really move us forward from a UX point of view.
Learning Nothing from Failure
The concept of "fail faster" and similar iterative-centric buzzwords only work well in scientific disciplines. As humans, we are inclined to evaluate the results of activities, designs, and events in the past as being more predictable than they were before they took place.
This hindsight bias means you have an illusion of understanding what went wrong which may not be accurate. This "I knew it all along" effect means people tend to remember past events as being predictable at the time those events happened. Our memory is inaccurate; we remember only the events or information that back our pre-existing worldview.
It doesn't mean failure is bad. Science and more formal engineering disciplines apply it well, and have done it this way for centuries. But you have to have clear goals, expected outcomes, and some control over variables. Then you have to take the time to measure (without bias) and accurately communicate the results. More formalized "post-mortem" reviews like the U.S. military after action review help to tease out these issues in less technical areas like project management and team interaction.
In design and software development, speed kills. Without stopping to make sure we are doing the right thing, we rapidly make the same mistakes not once but over and over again.
I find it easy to integrate these analytical methods into the design process. Even when working alone, and without formal evaluation it is worth looking at mistakes, changes and past iterations to see why the failure occurred or the change was required.
As designers and developers we forget to look up to see where we are in the bigger picture. We try to block things out into pixels and comfortable code templates. We need to step back occasionally, just for a minute, and think in broad brushstrokes. How are our detailed decisions impacting the way the whole product works, and the way it will integrate with users' lives?
There are many pressures put on design and implementation teams. A lot of them are specific to industries, organizations, or projects. Often, when I come into an organization to consult, I find that many elements that are assumed to be constraints are actually variables, or at least arguable. I'd stipulate that the real constraints are:
- Arbitrary Complexity: Most systems are so complex that they cannot be modeled with pencil and paper (or whiteboard, or flowchart, or wireframe) in sufficient detail to execute design.
- Systems All the Way Down: The complex application or website is embedded into a much more complex OS, in a differently-complex device, running on a vastly complex network, carried by a person with their own needs and behaviors, living in a world of other people and really complex systems. You cannot predict what might happen to these variables and how they will affect your little part of the world.
- Networks of Delay: Everything is connected now, but traditional network models fail us. Instead, we have built a giant, distributed supercomputer that we all carry windows into in our pockets. Our devices, apps, and websites just delay and interfere with access to this information, to varying degrees. Anything that reduces delay is good. Anything that gets in the way or exposes edges of the network is bad.
- Systems are Fault-Intolerant: Right now, technical systems (software, data) fundamentally expect perfect information and absolute precision in computation. They are intolerant of imprecision, missing data, and failures to connect unless that behavior is also precisely designed.
- Users are Fault-Intolerant: While people are great at estimating, fudging, and getting by, they don't like to use tools that break or cause them to work harder. Very simple gaps in "look and feel" can induce familiarity discomfort similar to the uncanny valley of anthropomorphized representations. At the very least, you will encounter reduced satisfaction and trust. Often, that means users will give up and use a competitor's product or service.
Bound to Fail
Relatively few people have been working on other methods that try to address some of these issues by being more flexible, working like the products, and working with the environments we design for. These methods and principles are less unified and are left without a single name. All of these methods are based on designs that are less scale-dependent (so work on multiple screen sizes); are more modular to encourage re-use; and annotate heavily to assure better coordination with implementation and quality assurance.
In the past decade or two, resilience engineering has become an important technical practice area. Resilience in this sense is the ability of a system to absorb disruptions without tipping over to a new kind of order. A building, when exposed to too much lateral ground movement, settles into a state of "rubble on the ground" unless you design it to resist this disruption adequately. Services like Google, Facebook, Etsy, Flickr, Yahoo!, and Amazon use resilience engineering teams and principles not to make sure their data centers stay running, but to assure that when failures occur, the end users don't notice.
Our systems are embedded in other technical systems, embedded into complex systems: like the user carrying it around, who may be subject to rain, and traffic delays, and screaming babies. We can't predict every failure point, but can plan to fail gracefully instead.
Embracing Errors and Complexity
Building on flexible UX design methods, mixed with these principles of resilience engineering, I propose another approach to designing for these constraints of complexity, error, delay, and intolerance. Instead of fighting these, we can design better systems by embracing failure and uncertainty.
In 1952, computing pioneer John Von Neumann called computational errors "an essential part of the process" of computing. This was almost forgotten for decades with the advent of the high-reliability computers we work on today. But increasing amounts of data and the need for power conservation are creating a need for unique solutions that leverage probabilistic design and ignore unused data or let small errors occur in computing.
This is surprisingly not new even to visual and graphic design. The technical methods of printing machinery have inherent inaccuracies and behaviors that make certain apparently possible designs insufficiently reliable for mass production. Print design has to account for ink being placed in the slightly wrong place, for overlaps on adjacent layers, and for slight errors in binding, folding or trimming.
In print (and package design) these are all considered tolerances, or normal variations, not errors. Accounting for overlaps and inaccuracies in ink placement is a whole (very specialized) practice area called trapping. I have books on my shelf dedicated just to trapping.
For the UX practice to account for tolerances and normal variation instead of lamenting fragmentation, complexity, and error means letting go of perfect solutions to create better, more robust systems and solutions. We need to embrace the messiness and complexity of systems—and of real life.
To apply these approaches to interaction design, with all the additional complexities, really doesn't call for anything new. We already do many of these things, but need to switch from considering them as discrete tasks to seeing them as principles that are applied regularly and repeatedly throughout the process of designing any project.
Here are some things we can do to design for imperfection:
- Assume the Unknown: No matter how many questions you ask or how much research you do, there will be behaviors you cannot predict or understand. This will keep happening. A minor change or a shift in trends will cause use of your system to change.
- Think Systematically: All the data we gather on personas and the concepts we use to develop storyboards are not inputs to the design process, they are the design process. Systems thinking is about setting aside constraints and considering how the people, paperwork, email, data storage, and every other part make up the whole. So, in every phase of the project, explicitly discuss the user, your expectations of their behaviors and needs, and how those are met in every way.
- Use and Make Patterns and Guidelines: Art and science both evolve by building on what has come before. Use existing patterns by understanding how they apply to your work. Create patterns for your product rather than screens. Design and document each widget to be as generalized as possible so you re-use and re-apply instead of designing each interaction from scratch.
- Analyze and Focus: Admit you do not know a lot about the pressures, behaviors, and inputs of the user and customer. But don't just throw your hands in the air and design for those you do know. List out likely needs, uses, and behaviors, classified in a way that they can cover not specific actions (We're not modeling use cases) but classes that the design can respond to. Rank these by their chance of happening and focus on the high-chance classes.
These are not steps in a process but constant activities carried out regularly throughout design and—if you can get everyone to play along—execution. I'll take a closer look at these activities in action in a future article. For now, keep in mind that this is very much not a process. Design tools do not really matter, as long as you are flexible enough to consider whatever tool is needed, and to solve problems as they arise, not as they are constrained by your tools.
If you've tried any of these approaches or have any thoughts on what's been discussed here, please comment below.
This article was most most-recently inspired by Gary Anthes' article "Inexact Design: Beyond Fault Tolerance" on probabilistic design of ICs in the April 2013 edition of Communications of the ACM.

And, to burden the comments, another article I forgot that influenced me halfway through writing this up. http://www.andyfitzgerald.org/the-trouble-with-system/
Another rather nice take on thinking about systems and how users work, that arrives at much my same point, from a totally different point of view http://www.poetpainter.com/thoughts/article/from-paths-to-sandboxes
I especially like this part "These are platforms. You can make of it what you want. There is no prescribed way to use the system."
The whole concept of resilience engineering is getting a lot of useful traction in traditional CS schools of thought, such that it's starting to be considered as an organizational-level behavior. This article, despite tending to be about software, engineering, etc. is really interesting for almost any organization. -- "The Antifragile Organization" by Ariel Tseitlin, which you can read here http://cacm.acm.org/magazines/2013/8/166315-the-antifragile-organization/abstract but only if you are a member of ACM (which I suggest as it's got lots and lots of good articles and a huge library of research on UX topics). They talk about using it operationally, inducing failure constantly in order to learn how to make systems not fail. I think it points out how you can embed the process, so even if not a robot army you can consider failure throughout your design process, and pushed through to analysts (BAs) so they evaluate every component, at every step, for novel failures so we can solve before launch.
I've been made aware of a few interesting articles (or books) from the past that may be I should have found with more diligent research. Listed without comment, in no particular order, in case you wish to continue pursuing this concept: http://alistapart.com/article/the-elegance-of-imperfection http://alistapart.com/article/the-web-aesthetic http://www.academia.edu/349078/The_value_of_imperfection_in_sustainable_design_The_emotional_tie_with_perfectible_artefacts_for_longer_lifespan http://queue.acm.org/detail.cfm?id=2371297 http://www.resilientdesign.org/rdis-resilient-design-principles-need-your-feedback/ Does any of this remind you of something else you read (or wrote)? Put it up here for everyone to see and discuss.
Thanks for the article, really great. One small comment: When you say "think systematically", I find it better to say "think systemically". A systemic viewpoint is different than a systematic one (focus on the whole vs. focus on tasks at hand).
Interesting point. I totally agree with how you describe the distinction, but have encountered it with this sort of distinction: "The adjective systematic means (1) carried out using step-by-step procedures, or (2) of, characterized, or constituting a system. It typically describes carefully planned processes that unfold gradually. Systemic, which is narrower in definition, means systemwide or deeply engrained in the system. It usually describes habits or processes that are difficult to reverse because they are built into a system." (http://grammarist.com/usage/systematic-systemic/). I am still worried about the use of systemic for the "deeply ingrained" part as well as the negative connotations. I rarely enocunter positive systemic behaviors. But, I can be swayed. Thoughts???
Great article, Steven! I'm early in the process of defining guidelines for my company, and am thinking much along the same lines, so your writing resonated with me. Standards documents often focus on visual design, which is expected by stakeholders, but as you noted, it's impossible to specify enough to really inform implementation, and leaves much of what truly impacts users up for interpretation.
Another component of this for my work is the design of an authoring environment. I'm focusing on embedding standards and guidelines into the tools that are used to generate sites, such as content management systems, rather than creating a large document with instructions and rules. I'd prefer to empower people to build standards-compliant, consistent sites. Finding a balance between flexibility and consistency is the challenge in this context, but defining and documenting guiding principles and interaction patterns helps to foreground the users' experience - beyond colors and fonts.
I'm involved in a redesign project where I'm using the Patterns/Guidelines over Detailed Comps model right now. Definitely stacks up better when you're aiming for a large user group of varying technical, social and demographic status like we are. Good read.
Arturo, I never did bother finding the source for this, picking part of it from the referenced article. "In 1952, the computing pioneer John von Neumann, in a lecture at Caltech on "error in logics," argued that computational errors should not be viewed as mere "accidents," but as "an essential part of the process." That is, error has to be treated as an intrinsic part of computing."
As far as I know there is no film/video/audio of his lecture series, but Von Neumann synthesized his 1952 lecture series into a paper published in 1956 Probabilistic Logics and the Synthesis of Reliable Organisms from Unreliable Components.
There is much good discussion of the concept throughout the paper, though much of it also a tedious exploration of logical examples. The quote is from the second paragraph:
The subject-matter, as the title suggests, is the role of error in logics, or in the physical implementation of logics – in automata-synthesis. Error is viewed, therefore, not as an extraneous and misdirected or misdirecting accident, but as an essential part of the process under consideration – its importance in the synthesis of automata being fully comparable to that of the factor which is normally considered, the intended and correct logical structure.
I've added hyperlinks in the article to the (poorly scanned) full text and some slightly differently (and differently badly scanned, but slightly searchable) text.

18.01.2014 /
Red Bull KTM Factory rider Taddy Blazusiak delivered a top performance in Round 3 of the FIM SuperEnduro Championship in Belo Horizonte, Brazil on Saturday. The reigning champion picked up the Superpole and a 1-3-1 result in the three finals and consolidates his championship points lead.
Taddy Blazusiak, KTM's Polish factory rider was the big winner with UK's David Knight finishing second overall and Alfredo Gomez of Spain in third. Taddy's teammate Jonny Walker of Britain was fourth after having some difficulty with arm pump.
Blazusiak warmed to the occasion and the enthusiasm of the large Brazilian crowd to deliver a stunning ride in the Superpole on his KTM 350 EXC-F and in the opening Prestige class final when he got away badly, crashed twice but still crossed the line three seconds ahead of Knight.
"It felt awesome to win here in Brazil," said Blazusiak. "The track was tough and I had my fair share of crashes but thankfully it came good in the end."
KTM Enduro Team Manager Fabio Farioli said he had been in brilliant form in the opening race, had salvaged a good third in the second race after three separate crashes and then came back well in the third race to pick up a total of 58 points on the night. Farioli also said Walker rode well in the opener and was out in front when he lost positions due to arm pump. "Taddy rode brilliantly tonight and Jonny was also leading in the second race but crashed and finished fourth," he said.
Walker's 3-4-3 result netted him 44 points and he is now fourth in the championship standings.The next round is in Mexico on January 25.

There is nothing easy or cheap about these slow-cooker recipes! 20 ingredients per recipe and 30 minute prep time is not 'easy.' I'm disappointed with the free slow-cooker cookbook too. Way too hard - and that's just the shopping for ingredients. — Rose_334 |

I rest my case.
I have no sympathy for satan or ignorance. You should obey, you obviously lack the mind yourself.
I rest my case.
You have no case. You learnt that phrase on TV. How much are you even aware of reality? Go into Islam, don`t become sectarians, derive your religion from the Quran, and maybe in 10 years you will understand.
Peace be with You.
Oh but I do, you just missed it. Here, let me make it easy for you: http://phoronix.com/forums/showthrea...381#post261381
You actually typed that and believed that to be something good? You are joke, mindless and at the mercy of God.
Let me hear your most twisted stupid idiocy, of a sick satanic bitch.
Come on, against the paradox, you will be crushed.
Hate the timeless paradox void, and have a gay pretending to be it, and fuck it. That is what I think all satans should do.
God, Just when you think you've seen it all with Qaridarium, his little ADHD brother comes out to play...
You will provoke and get dicks up the ass, dont worry.
Don`t you have more television phrases, like "punk`d" or something.

Genealogy records
Ireland-Australia transportation records (1791-1853)
The fire in the Public Record Office complex in the Four Courts during the Irish Civil War (1922-1923) resulted in the severe damage and destruction of records. Although not all records from the Chief Secretary's Office in Dublin Castle survive, especially from the period before 1836, sufficient material has survived to make the transportation records held in the National Archives a major source for Australians researching Irish convict ancestors. Penal transportation to Australia (and later to Bermuda or Gibraltar) covered the years 1791 until 1853 when the sentence of penal transportation was commuted to a prison sentence in Ireland.
For information on transportation sources, please consult the following pages on our site:
- Ireland-Australia transportation database (.pdf version)
- 'Sources in the National Archives for research into the transportation of Irish convicts to Australia (1791-1853)' by Rena Lohan (.pdf format)
- Frequently Asked Questions on transportation to Australia
Transportation records of interest include the following:
- Transportation Registers (1836-1857)
- Prisoners' Petitions and Cases (1788-1836)
- State Prisoners' Petitions (1798-1799)
- Convict Reference Files (1836-1856: 1865-1868)
- Free Settlers' Papers (1828-1852)
- Male Convict Register (1842-1847)
- Register of Convicts on Convict Ships (1851-1853)
Microfilms containing full copies of the the above records are available in the Reading Room and the index and microfilms are also available in libraries in Australia. If the search of the microfilms has been successful, there may be enough information to pursue the search in other National Archives' sources such as the Chief Secretary's Office Registered Papers and Outrage Reports or in newspapers held in the National Library of Ireland.

Ham and Mushroom Sauerkraut Soup
Sauerkraut comes in such large jars and I sometimes worry about picking one up because I just know that I will have that half used jar sitting in the fridge taking up space for months afterwards. Last week I could not resist trying the sauerkraut cabbage roll soup and that meant picking up one of those jars of sauerkraut. While I was enjoying a bowl of the soup it reminded me that it had been a while since I last made my favorite pirogies which are stuffed with sauerkraut, ham, mushrooms and onions. One thought led to the other and next I was wondering about a soup made with the sauerkraut, ham, mushrooms and onion flavour combination and I knew exactly how I was going to finish off that jar of sauerkraut! With the ham and sauerkraut the soup had the flavour department covered but I was thinking that I needed to bulk the soup up a bit and that sounded like the perfect opportunity to throw in a grain and barley seemed like the right choice. The pirogi filling inspired soup turned out really well and it certainly hit the spot on a cold winter day! It is always nice to find new ways to enjoy your favourite flavour combinations.
Ham and Mushroom Sauerkraut Soup
(makes 4+ servings)Printable Recipe
1 tablespoon oil
1 large onion (diced)
2 cloves garlic (chopped)
1 (8 ounce) package cremini mushrooms (diced)
2 cups ham (chopped in a food processor)
2 cups sauerkraut (with liquid)
4 cups ham broth or chicken broth or chicken stock
1/3 cup barley
2 bay leaves
salt and pepper to taste
1. Heat the oil in a pan.
2. Add the onions and saute until tender, about 5-7 minutes.
3. Add the garlic and saute until fragrant, about a minute.
4. Add the mushrooms and saute until all of the moisture has evaporated.
5. Add the ham, sauerkraut, broth, barley, bay leaves, salt and pepper and bring to a boil.
6. Reduce the heat and simmer until the barley is tender, about 30-45 minutes.

Patiently made using a 1,000 year old method. Organic brown rice, koji, and spring water are blended and fermented outdoors in clay crocks and aged eight months. Precious, sweet, smooth, and mellow. Enhances almost any food and it's essential to make good sushi rice. 4.5% acidity. Great chefs insist on this sweet traditional brew, please discover why.
Eden Organic Brown Rice Vinegar is a stimulating and versatile seasoning. It is full bodied without the usual sharpness of vinegar. In cooking, brown rice vinegar helps to balance salt and adds interest by providing a contrast of flavors. Use it as you would any other fine vinegar. It is an excellent condiment sprinkled over vegetables and grain.
Eden Organic Brown Rice Vinegar is made from organically grown, cooked brown rice Oryza sative, koji Aspergillus oryzae, a small amount of seed vinegar from a previous batch and pure water. These ingredients are blended and placed in earthenware crocks that are partially buried outdoors in the earth, covered and fermented for about eight months. The enzymes in the koji break down the complex starches in the rice, converting them to simple sugars. Yeast from the koji and seed vinegar further break down the sugar into alcohol. Bacteria in the seed vinegar then converts the alcohol to acetic acid or vinegar. 4.5 percent acidity.
A vinegar that is labeled 'rice vinegar' does not assure quality. Many commercial vinegars are synthetic products made from glacial acetic acid, a petroleum product. Others are made from alcohol produced for industrial use. Please avoid any vinegar labeled 'distilled,' as it is the most highly refined.
Authentic brown rice vinegar is considered a healthful food in Japan and is served with almost every meal.
Rice vinegar was brought from China to Japan in the fourth century A.D., at about the same time that the closely related process for making rice wine (sake) was introduced. Natural rice vinegar maintained its popularity in Japan until the early 1900s when the cheaper brewing methods were developed. Eden Organic Brown Rice Vinegar is the healthiest, original version.

Escape Average & Do Work that Matters
Tweet |
I'm not sure if you're aware of this but I am a HUGE Jon Acuff fan. Why? Well, first, he wrote a book called Stuff Christians Like and as someone who has grown up in the church my entire life, I found it downright hilarious.
But that's not the only reason why I like Jon Acuff. I like him because he's real. He is an encourager and a motivator but not of the normal kind. Years ago when I realized I had learned a method that could greatly help other people, I also realized I had a choice. I had a choice to keep it to myself, I had a choice to only share it with my family, I had a choice to stop. I chose to start. I chose to punch fear in the face and start public speaking.
I used to throw up anytime I spoke in public. I used to sweat. A lot. I used to get dizzy speaking to just 4 or 5 people. I remember that clearly. Something inside of me told me to start, no matter what it felt like, I wanted to do work that matters and escape average and that is what I did.
Some of you need to escape average too, some of you have a passion and a dream down deep inside that has been buried by daily routine and something inside of you is calling you to start. Start being awesome. Start your dream. Start your passion.
I want to encourage you to pre-order a copy of Jon Acuff's latest book, Start. I don't recommend books very often but I'm recommending this one because I believe it will alter your life and I'm not saying that lightly.
If you preorder Start on TheStartBook.com, you get $250 in AMAZING extras including The Hater Handbook (my favorite) and 3 Stages of Every Awesome Idea ebook plus, 2 video segments from Start Night, 4 Quitter conference audio sessions and the Start ebook.
Visit TheStartBook.com and get moving on your dream.

Another day, well, really, late night in Paris.� And still thinking about what happens to all that bread in a city where FRESH is the watchword.� Au Pied de Cochon (it means "the pig's foot"), provided another answer.� Onion soup!� Hot and soothing and topped with thick slices of yesterday's baguette and grated cheese.� Not to mention the meltingly tender onions at the bottom of the bowl.
Popular for decades, this restaurant packs them in every night.� More so after 10 o'clock as it never closes.� Never.� This brasserie is still hopping after all the other venues close.� So, for anyone who's been partying until the wee hours, this is the place to go to finish off the evening – even at 3:00 AM.� And the place to go when it's still raining in Paris.� Still.
Makes 6 servings, easily doubled
My advice on this one is to get a nice sturdy ovenproof roasting pan, like one of those turkey pans with handles, to put the bowls into for the broiling step.� That way,� soup won't slosh on the bottom of the oven or on your floor, or burn your hands as you try to transfer it to the table at the perfect temperature – hot, hot, hot!
The chicken stock, rather than beef, was a bit of a shock to me, but some cooks outside the restaurant make it with half chicken, half beef stock.� After tasting the original, I'll stick to this recipe.
1 or 2 large white onions, weight about 1 pound, thinly sliced
2 cups dry white wine
2 tablespoons unsalted butter
6 cups chicken stock
6 thick slices "day old" crusty baguette
2 cups grated Gruyere cheese

What's on Now!
Passport & Palette
Passport & Palette represents the next generation of art education on television. The series invites viewers to see the world through the eyes of acclaimed master artists, including en plein air painter Kevin Macpherson, still-life artist Joe Anna Arnett, watercolor specialist James Asher and outdoor painter Kenn Backhaus.
Cameras follow the artists as they travel to some of the most picturesque locations in France, Switzerland, Guatemala, Italy, Canada and the United States, select their painting subjects and create new landscapes, still lifes and portraits. Along the way, the artists discuss their unique approaches to their work, as well as their mental process, influences and style.

Coming soon
Kevin Macpherson/Landscapes/Saint-Pierre-De-Maille, France #101 Landscape painter Kevin Macpherson takes his inspiration directly from nature, or "en plein air." In the idyllic French countryside, he captures the moment in an impressionistic style. He also demonstrates how virtually any color can be mixed with a limited palette. |
Kenn Backhaus/Painting Outdoors/Charming Forge, Pennsylvania #102 Master artist Kenn Backhaus illustrates the set of skills and tools needed to paint outdoors. He explains how to respond to cloudy conditions, as well as at the changing light at different times of the day. Backhaus then presents the three resulting works for discussion and develops one into a large studio painting. |
Joe Anna Arnett/Garden Painting 2/Santa Fe, New Mexico #103 Master artist Joe Anna Arnett finds her muse and inspiration in the numerous flowers and plants growing in her garden. Her warm, direct teaching style allows the viewer to easily follow her masterful brush work and painting style. |
Joe Anna Arnett/Still Life Outdoors/Santa Fe, New Mexico #104 In an intimate outdoor painting session set in her beautiful Santa Fe garden, master artist Joe Anna Arnett paints a John Singer Sargent-inspired still life. She chooses as her subjects a wicker-laced chair, green water jug and cut flowers from the garden. She demonstrates the selection process and the importance of patience while setting up the elements of a painting. She also shares the secrets to successful painting, covering composition, light and the technique of impasto. |
Joe Anna Arnett/Garden Painting 1/Neons-Sur-Creuse, France & Santa Fe, NM #105 A careful observer of nature, master artist Joe Anna Arnett captures a hidden garden scene at a French countryside chateau. Back in her Santa Fe garden, she composes a painting from the flowers blooming there. |

James Asher/Watercolor/France, Truchas, New Mexico & Guatemala #108 James Asher's masterful watercolors capture each subject in vibrant color and detail - a tranquil village located in Central France, a Mayan model in the courtyard of a Guatemalan hacienda or a rural church in New Mexico. The subjects of his critically acclaimed works vary greatly, yet his watercolor technique remains the same. |
Kevin Macpherson/Italy/Italian Riveria #109 On his first painting trip to the Italian Riviera, master artist Kevin Macpherson captures the colors and passion of Italy's enchanted shores through his paintings and his narrations. |

High Waisted Bootcut Jeggings
So Excited
I've had the worst time trying to find jeans for my very petite 9-year-old daughter. Every piece of denim I have ever bought her has fallen down over her non-existent hips and bottom after wearing them for a short time. She can't tolerate wearing a belt, so I thought she was doomed to leggings and yoga pants for eternity. Not anymore. These high-waisted jeans really just sit at the natural waist, as opposed to being the hip-hugger type. They stayed up without a belt while still having give and stretch. A size 8 fit her well with a little length for growth. She is 51 inches and 52 lbs. The medium wash is nice (I did not care for the heavily distressed wash available in stores). Please make more classic washes in these jeans. I would definitely buy more!

A man was killed in a two-car crash Wednesday night in La Plata, the Maryland State Police reported.
Michael Leonard Ford, 31, of La Plata died when his silver 2002 Mitsubishi Lancer ES struck a maroon 2003 Chevrolet Impala driven by Nicole Desiree Gaines, 39, of Indian Head at 8:28 p.m. Nov. 7.
Police said that Ford was speeding eastbound on Hawthorne Road near the intersection with Ripley Road when he lost control of his car and hit Gaines' vehicle, which was traveling west.
Police listed "alcohol, speeding and failing to drive right of center" as the accident's determining factors.
Ford died at the scene, police reported.
Gaines and a juvenile passenger in her car were taken by ambulance to Prince George's Hospital Center's shock trauma unit with injuries that are not life-threatening.
The investigation is ongoing.

NATIONAL CENTER FOR SCIENCE EDUCATION SUBMITS AMICUS BRIEF IN FEDERAL COURT OPPOSING EVOLUTION DISCLAIMERS IN COBB COUNTY, GEORGIA, TEXTBOOKS "Divine design" legislation threatened in UtahUtah is abuzz with the news that a state senator plans to introduce legislation to teach "divine design" in the state's public schools. Jefferys reviews The Privileged Planet
In light of the recent controversy over the screening of the film The Privileged Planet at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History, William H. Jefferys's review of the book on which the film is based is sure to be of interest. "Intelligent design" at NMNH?
On May 28, 2005, readers of The New York Times were surprised to discover that The Privileged Planet -- a film based on the book of the same title by Guillermo Gonzalez and Jay Wesley Richards, both affiliated with the Discovery Institute -- was scheduled for a private showing at the Smithsonian Institution's National Museum of Natural History in Washington DC. Monkey see, monkey do?
The evolution/creationism controversy was featured on the May 27, 2005, installment of The Journal Editorial Report, a news and discussion program featuring members of The Wall Street Journal's editorial staff that airs weekly on PBS stations across the country. Pages |

Red Sox can clinch top seed in Lester's last start
A win over Chen, O's gives Boston home field throughout playoffs
The Red Sox have yet to announce who their No. 1 starter will be in the playoffs, but the way Clay Buchholz and Jon Lester have been pitching, there shouldn't be a wrong choice.
Lester, who takes the mound for the last time during the regular season Saturday as the Red Sox play the Orioles, has already set a new career high for innings, pitching 208 1/3 in 2013. And he's gotten better with each one.
The 6-foot-4, 240-pound lefty has pitched to a 3.13 ERA in July, followed by a 2.97 ERA in August, with a sparkling 1.80 ERA in four September starts.
"I feel great," Lester said. "Just getting back to being me. I had it in the beginning of the year, hit a little bit of a bump in the middle and now I'm back to being me. "
Lester's late-season magnificence is consistent with what he's done throughout his career, having saved his best for last with a career 3.29 ERA in September and October.
"It's something I've always said, especially when I started so slow in years past: it's not how you start, it's how you finish," Lester said. "Hopefully I can keep carrying these good starts into the postseason and give these guys a chance to score some runs early, and hopefully keep some runs off the board for the other team."
The Red Sox will have a chance to clinch home-field advantage throughout the postseason if the A's lose a game in their final series in Seattle, or if the Red Sox win on Saturday.
"We did it two years ago and we're going to do it again," manager Buck Showalter said of running his best team out there. "It has nothing to do with trying to rain on somebody's parade. It's just compete and do what's right. Usually when that's the challenge, to do what's right, our guys do that."
On the mound for the Orioles will be Wei-Yin Chen, who gave up a career-high 11 hits against the Red Sox on Sept. 18.
"This is the big leagues," said Chen, who has allowed 24 hits over his last 16 1/3 innings while posting a 5.51 ERA. "I made a couple mistakes and I paid the price. This is a lesson I need to learn and carry on. I hope I have a better performance next time."
Red Sox: Victorino out, Napoli in
Mike Napoli was back in the Red Sox's lineup Friday after missing a week while resting a sore left foot, and he is expected to be healthy for the team's playoff run.
"The one thing that we discussed internally, with the downtime, this should allow him to get through the rest of the season, whatever remains, in good shape," said manager John Farrell.
Shane Victorino took Friday off with a jammed right thumb, though he's expected to return on Saturday.
"That's part of him being out of the lineup today. I can tell you this -- in my exchange with him, he wasn't real happy about being out of the lineup," Farrell said. "He's dealing with something, and probably seven other guys on the field are dealing with something as well."
Orioles: Johnson likely to return in 2014
Jim Johnson, the first O's closer ever to record multiple 40-save seasons, is eligible for arbitration following the season and the team is planning on offering him a contract.
"Jim Johnson is one of our core players," said executive vice president of baseball operations Dan Duquette, who has emphasized keeping that core intact for the organization to sustain success. "Jimmy has done something historic in terms of the numbers of games he's saved over the last couple years, so he's established significant value. He came into the job last year, I think he had nine saves in his career, and over the last two years, he has over 100, 99."
Worth noting
• Red Sox catcher Jarrod Saltalamacchia has four home runs in his last nine starts.
• The Orioles (9-8) are the only AL East team to have a winning record against the Red Sox this year.

What is it about Midwestern girls that make them such diligent dick suckers? It must be that Midwestern work ethic. Marie McCray was raised on a strict diet of country fed cock, but now that the 19 year old has made her way to LA, we decided to see how she handles some West Coast beefsteak. It ain\'t all nuts and berries in LA! We parted her lips and fed her a jawbreaker sized cock that stretched her mouth until she looked like a blowfish. Her rosy lips parted like the Red Sea and Marie swallowed his cock like a sword swallower. If you thought her complexion was peaches and cream before, just wait until you see her covered in cock juice!
Yum, yum...we love redheads covered in cum!

Antithyroglobulin antibody is a test to measure antibodies to a protein called thyroglobulin, which is found in thyroid cells.
Thyroglobulin antibody
A blood sample is needed. For information on how this is done, see: Venipuncture
You may be told not to eat or drink anything for several hours before the test (usually overnight). Your doctor may monitor you or tell you to stop taking medications that may affect the test results until after the test.
When the needle is inserted to draw blood, some people feel moderate pain, while others feel only a prick or stinging sensation. Afterward, there may be some throbbing.
This test helps detect possible thyroid problems. Antithyroglobulin antibodies can lead to the destruction of the thyroid gland. Such antibodies are more likely to appear after thyroid gland swelling (inflammation) or injury.
Thyroglobulin antibody is also measured. Sometimes the thyroglobulin level is measured too, for example to follow up on some types of thyroid cancer.
A negative test is normal -- it means no antibodies to thyroglobulin are found in your blood.
Normal value ranges may vary slightly among different laboratories. Some labs use different measurements or test different samples. Talk to your doctor about the meaning of your specific test results.
A positive test means antithyroglobulin antibodies are found in your blood. This may be due to:
Pregnant women and relatives of those with autoimmune thyroiditis may also test positive for these antibodies.
Veins and arteries vary in size from one patient to another and from one side of the body to the other. Obtaining a blood sample from some people may be more difficult than from others.
Other risks associated with having blood drawn are slight but may include:

This educational idea is brought to you by Melissa & Doug , written by our Blog Ambassador Amy Mascott.
The best, most meaningful learning takes place during games and play. -Amy
Often I've found that my kids love to play with items that are not necessarily toys. Mirrors, ribbons, buttons, tissue paper, paper rolls, you name it. They always seem to find a way to play with these little, around-the-house items.
So years ago, I started keeping lids for this very purpose–I figured that if my kids were going to play with funny things, why not sneak some learning into the mix? Lids seemed the perfect fit because they were free (yay!), they were so easy to come by (yay!), and they were safe for little hands (yay!).
After the lids are washed and dried, I put them in a bag that I hung in the kitchen. Once the bag was filled, I added the lids to a large container, and before I knew it, container after container was filled with lids!
Lids are perfect for shape and color sorting!
(Most of ours are circles, but square and rectangular lids are relatively easy to find.)
Here are some fun ways to play with lids while sneaking in a bit of learning along the way:
- sort them by color
- sort them by shape
- sort them by size
For older children, talk about primary colors (red, yellow, blue) and secondary colors (orange, green, purple). Introduce the idea of shades of color by placing the lids in order from darkest red to lightest.
Try matching colors, stacking the lids to build a tall tower, or putting lids inside one another to hide them!
Talk about the similarities between lids and the differences:
- Which is the largest lid?
- Which is the smallest lid?
- Which color do you see the most?
- Which lids have letters or numbers on them?
- Which lids are thick? Which are thin?
- Placing colored construction paper on the floor and have your child match up the lids, calling out the color as the lid is placed correctly;
- Counting lids;
- Grouping lids by 5′s and 10′s;
- Skip counting with lids– by 2′s, 5′s, 10′s, etc.
No matter how you choose to play, lids can be super for shape and color sorting–and so much more!
