My Multi-Colored Jacket
So here is the jacket that I was working on with frozen fingers while our power was out last week. I had started making the "Suits Me Jacket" by Lily Chin but after completing nearly the whole thing, I realized that it did not fit or hang well.
So I switched to one of my favorites, the One Stitch Cardigan. I simply scattered the little dashes of color randomly across the body of my work.
Then I enlarged the neck opening and added a nice chunky ribbed cowl collar. The pattern left the edges raw, but I found that the fronts were stretching along the edges and did not have a nice finished appearance so I ran a row of slip stitches all along the fronts and bottom.
Of course it took me two days to weave in all the tails! But by the time the power came back on, I was finishing up with the collar and the buttons.
I am enormously pleased with this jacket. The dolmen sleeves give me enough room to move even when I am wearing a bulky sweater underneath. The Wool of the Andes that I used for this project is super warm. And I really love a jacket that is easy to drape over a chair back or just hold in your lap at a restaurant or at the movies.
Remnants of Christmas
The poinsettias from Christmas are still so beautiful in my kitchen window. Each morning I enjoy looking at them as I drink my coffee. Despite the frigid temperatures this winter, I never once moved them from their place in the bay window. I keep them watered and they seem to like the morning sun that warms that spot just a little each day before noon. I know they are messy but I am willing to put up with them just a little longer through this very long season. We are expecting another winter storm in two days. Paul and I are mobilizing ourselves for another outage…
My goodness what devastation! We've had ice storms in the past here in Southern PA but this one was a real doozy. A heavy blanket of wet snow-covered all the trees and power lines, weighing them down. Then a fine freezing mist began to fall, gradually coating everything with a thick glaze. The tiniest twigs were the size of my thumb.
I awoke at 5 am last Wednesday. It was dark outside but as I drank my coffee I could hear the repeated ominous cracking and crash of trees and limbs falling. I got out the candles, lighters, and flashlights. Ten minutes later I saw a transformer explode outside the French doors leading to the back yard. With a loud bang all the power went out.
Met Ed, our power company, communicated that we would be up and running by Thursday at 4 pm. So Paul and I decided that we would be able to stand a few days of cold. We have no fireplace or wood stove but we got out all the blankets and hunkered down.
As the day wore on, trees and limbs continued to fall. Our neighbor's Birch tree fell and barely missed our house. The tall pine trees that afforded us privacy across the back of our property were decimated. One huge limb had narrowly missed our shed. The new firs that we had planted last spring were bent to the ground and the azaleas in front of them were destroyed.
And it was getting colder in the house. By Friday morning the temperature inside had dropped to 46 degrees. I was trying to keep busy by working on a crochet project, a multi-color jacket that was nice and warm on my lap. Finally, however, I had to give it up. My hands were simply too cold and stiff to crochet.
We had a couple of saving graces. Our gas stove enabled us to make hot meals and our gas hot water heater allowed us to wash dishes and take hot showers. We stored our hot soup out in the snow because we had already lost everything in the fridge. Throughout the storm we were worried about bursting pipes. The outside temperature went down each night into the low teens. Paul and I wrapped blankets around all the faucets and pipes in the garage. Thursday 4 pm came and went with no power recovery. The only way to charge my phone was with the car charger so we packed up Frazier and drove around in a warm car until it was charged.
Met Ed sent a text update giving us a new time for restoration: midnight Saturday night. By this time we were freezing. Family, friends and neighbors offered to have us spend the night in their homes. We decided to wait another night before draining the water from the pipes and moving out.
On Friday our library finally regained power so Paul took the computer, the phone, and the Kindles there to recharge the electronics. He had been gone for about a half hour when the power came on.
Thoughtful Conclusion
I learned a few things about myself as a result of the power outage. While I hate to admit it, the sense of adventure I had as a young woman is no longer part of me. I was extremely uncomfortable throughout the entire ordeal. My philosophy is that life is best lived by accepting adversity,detaching from it, and observing it dispassionately. I was not able to do this. There were over 137,000 homes without power in Southern York County. Some are still without power as I write this post. I'm ashamed to say that I was a wimp. Next time, we will be better prepared.
Pietra Shrug: A New Free Pattern From Wolf Crochet
In yesterday's post I gave you a hint of things to come with my new pattern. Developing the stitch design was fun and proved that you can sometimes think out of the box when working with crochet. The long "vines" that run up and down the shrug are slip stitch rows that are worked through both loops of the row below. What makes them three-dimensional is the row after the slip stitches. You choose a vertical loop behind your slip stitch row and work into that instead of into the slip stitches. This is a nice way to make the "vines" stand out without having to go back later to slip stitch on top of your fabric. Very easy.
The shrug design is a simple rectangle. You can change the size up or down by working a few more or a few less stitches. When deciding which yarn to use for this pattern, consider how it will drape. If you enjoy a bulky, cozy garment, then by all means go for worsted weight but if you are after a lighter wrap, then stick to sport, DK, or fingering yarn.
I hope that you enjoy this free pattern: Pietra Shrug a
I'm Swatching, I'm Swatching, I'm Swatching All Day
After the fiasco with the Summer Breeze Cardi, I was casting about for a different project for my Pebbles yarn and decided to make up my own design. Since the pebbles is a DK weight cotton, in order to get any drape at all, I needed to go for an openwork garment. I'm not much of a fan of lace stitch patterns but I do like openwork crochet that has more of a modern, geometrical look. I was inspired by the Blue Waves Vest on the cover of the November 2010 Issue of Crochet Today.
But I really, really love the simple construction of the Crocodile Stitch Cardigan that I had just completed. There are many of that type of shrug on-line and they are all made by crocheting a rectangle and then sewing the ends together. What could be easier? And the results are fantastic! An optional border all the way around the neck and front can dress up this easy design.
I swatched the Crossbill Stitch and the SC2tog,CH 1 Stitch as well as several others and none of them were giving me the drape that I was after. Since I was working with cotton, I wanted this garment to be for the Spring and Fall so it had to be light and airy.
I experimented with the Blue Waves Vest stitch pattern but was not thrilled with the lack of texture. I wanted my vertical lines to stand out more so I tried slip stitching into the front stitch and then working the next row behind the row of slip stitches in the remaining unworked stitches from the previous row. This made the vertical lines stand out but they were much too prominent now. Luckily, my granddaughter Erika requested that I make her the Bamboo Hooded Scarf, one of my early designs. Voila! Here was the stitch pattern I was looking for!
I made a few modifications so that the textured rows would always ride on the right side. They now look as if they were slip-stitched onto the top of the fabric after the project was finished. This is exactly what I was after but by working each slip stitch row into the body of the fabric, you eliminate the laborious extra work.
So there you have it my friends. The photo above is of my new pattern on the blocking wires. I just have to take a few photos and re-read the instructions for errors and then I will post it to my blog. Stay tuned for the Pietra Shrug!

Later works and career
With some difficulty Veblen found a post as a lecturer at the University of Missouri, at a much lower salary, and he remained there from 1911 until 1918. He was divorced by Ellen Rolfe and in 1914 married Anne Fessenden Bradley, a divorcee whom he had known for some years. She had two daughters, whom she brought up according to Veblen's utilitarian ideas as expressed in The Theory of the Leisure Class.
At Missouri Veblen enjoyed a productive period. In The Instinct of Workmanship and the State of the Industrial Arts (1914), he elaborated on his idea that business enterprise was in fundamental conflict with the human propensity for useful effort; too much of humankind's energy was wasted through inefficient institutions. The outbreak of World War I deepened Veblen's pessimism for the prospects of the human race. In Imperial Germany and the Industrial Revolution (1915), he suggested that Germany had an advantage over democratic states such as the United Kingdom and France because its autocracy was better able to channel the gains of modern technology toward the service of the state. He conceded that the advantage was only temporary, however, because the German economy would eventually develop its own system of conspicuous waste. With An Inquiry into the Nature of Peace and the Terms of Its Perpetuation (1917), Veblen acquired an international following. He maintained that modern wars were caused mainly by the competitive demands of national business interests and that an enduring peace could be had only at the expense of "the rights of ownership, and of the price system in which these rights take effect."
In February 1918 he took a job with the Food Administration in Washington, D.C., but his approach to economic problems was of no use to government administrators, and he remained in the post less than five months. In the fall of 1918 he joined the editorial staff of The Dial, a literary and political magazine in New York, for which he wrote a series of articles on "The Modern Point of View and the New Order," later published in book form as The Vested Interests and the State of the Industrial Arts (1919; republished as The Vested Interests and the Common Man: The Modern Point of View and the New Order). Another series of articles that appeared in The Dial was later published in the book The Engineers and the Price System (1921). In these pieces Veblen developed his ideas for reform of the economic system. He believed that engineers, who had the knowledge to run industry, should take over its direction because they would manage it for efficiency instead of profit. This theme was central to the brief Depression-era movement known as "technocracy."
Final years and assessment
At a time when his prestige in the literary world had reached new heights, Veblen's own life was going badly. He left The Dial after one year. His second wife had suffered a nervous collapse that was followed by her death in 1920. Veblen himself largely had to be looked after by a few devoted friends and appeared to be psychologically incapable of conversing with strangers interested in his ideas. For a while he lectured at the New School for Social Research in New York City, his salary supported by a subsidy from a former student. His last book, Absentee Ownership and Business Enterprise in Recent Times: The Case of America (1923), was an ill-written and repetitious examination of corporate finance, in which he stressed again the contradiction between the industrial arts and business enterprise.
In 1926 he gave up teaching and returned to California, where he lived with a stepdaughter in a cabin in the mountains overlooking the sea. He remained there until the end of his life.
Veblen's reputation reached another high point in the 1930s, when the economic depression appeared to many to vindicate his criticisms of the business system. Although the reading public saw him as a political radical or socialist, Veblen was a pessimist who never committed himself to any form of political action. Among economists he has had both admirers and critics, but more of the latter. The scholarly analysis of modern industrial society owes much more to Veblen's German contemporary Max Weber, whose ideas are more complex than Veblen's. Even his closest disciples found his anthropological and historical approach too sweeping to satisfy their scientific requirements, though they admired his vast learning and original insights. One of his most eminent admirers, Wesley C. Mitchell, called him "a visitor from another world," saying, "No other such emancipator of the mind from the subtle tyranny of circumstance has been known in social science, and no other such enlarger of the realm of inquiry."

Learn about topics ranging from recording and publishing video chats to managing your finances online.
Note: Monday Productivity Pointers is currently on a break, but stay tuned for new tutorials!
I'm Jess Stratton, and welcome to Monday Productivity Pointers. This week, I'm going to show you how you can take screenshots natively with the OS of the machine you're on. And today, I'm going to talk about how to take screenshots natively on the PC. This means that there's no new apps you have to download or install. You can do it right from Windows. So why would you want to take a screenshot, and what can you do with it once you have it? Well for one, sometimes when you're trying to troubleshoot a computer screen as you know, sometimes there's more going on on the screen that words cannot even describe to tech support.
Sometimes a picture is worth a thousand words. And it's much easier just to take a screenshot of what's going on on your screen and send it right to tech support. Also, if you're editing a proof, you can mark up that picture and send it to whoever needs to see it directly. I like to take screenshots when it's just an easier and quicker way to show somebody what's on my desktop. Alright, let's get started. If you use Windows Vista, Windows 7 or Windows 8, then you already have this built in app called, the snipping tool.
I'm going to open up my control panel because I'm going to pretend I need to take some screenshots of this. Now, you can take screenshots and highlight something that's wrong with your computer or you can also take screenshots to show somebody where they should be clicking. So let's click Start, and you can click on Snipping Tool. If you don't see it in your Start Menu, just start typing for Snipping Tool. The snipping tool will open, and I'm going to click on this drop down arrow next to New. There's a couple of snips I can do. The first one is a free form snip, which will actually just let me click my mouse.
And I'll select whatever I click. Now I'm going to choose Rectangular Snip. But the other two options are Window Snip, which will take a screenshot of the entire window, the active window, not the screen, or a Full Screen Snip. Now, a full screen snip would take everything, this blue desktop, the taskbar, the window, everything. So these are your options. If I choose rectangular snip, this is going to let me drag the cursor and select what I want.
Now I could have just chosen Windows Snip, but I wanted to show you what it does. Let go of the mouse and it will snip exactly what you clicked and dragged with the mouse. Now that I've got my snip, there's some options. I can actually mark up this screen shot directly. I can use a pen. If I click the black triangle, I'll get some options. I can change the color and I can circle things or write free form. I can also select highlighter. This is great for highlighting what people actually need to look at.
Now, if I don't want to use anything, I can choose Eraser. This will let me click on the markup that I've done that I don't want anymore. Now, once I'm happy with what I have, I can send it via email. Or I can choose the disk icon to save it to my computer. I can save as type PNG, GIF, JPEG or as a single file HTML file. Now, the file size is going to be affected by whatever you save it as.
If there's a lot of colors, you can save it as a JPEG or if you want to keep the integrity of it really intact save it as PNG file. If you save it as a JPEG file, the file size will be nice and small. We can save it as a JPEG and this will make it nice and small for emailing. When I'm all done, I can close and I'm back to where I was. So that's how easy it is to grab an area of your screen, mark it up and send it to who needs to see it. You can use it to tell other people where to click and you can also show it when you need help deciding where to click.

Regional School Unit No. 5
Dear Friends of RSU No. 5:
Mike Lafortune and I, Bill Michaud, will serve as Co-Superintendents of Schools for the district until June 30, 2015. We are both excited to be here and look forward to assisting the RSU through this period of transition.
Durham, Freeport and Pownal owe a debt of gratitude to the district's first Superintendent, Shannon L. Welsh, who retired at the end of June. Dr. Welsh worked tirelessly on behalf of RSU5 students and teachers and set extremely high standards for professionalism and educational excellence. We applaud her accomplishments and wish her a long, healthy, and happy retirement.
Mike and I have been fortunate to work in many capacities in Maine schools over the past 30 years. We look forward to our time here, and will be guided by the simple question, "Is it good for kids?"
Best wishes,
Bill Michaud
Mike Lafortune

One of the reasons being trotted out as an explanation
for the current crisis in large law firm
financial condition and performance, and of some
law firm failures, has been "undercapitalization." If
that were true, then the solution to the present crisis
would be a simple capital call from the partners
or a line of credit from a bank and everything would
be fine with the financial condition of such firms.
But there are numerous firms with substantial
partner capital accounts and large working lines
of debt from banks that are struggling. Recently
failed large law firms in the AmLaw 100 have had
cumulative equity partner capital accounts of $40
million or more, and working capital lines of credit
drawn to outstanding balances of nearly twice the
amount of contributed partner capital when they
failed. Undercapitalization cannot be a cause or
reason for the current crisis; indeed it is not the
problem, rather it is merely a symptom. It is the adoption of unsustainable practices with respect to distributions, and the application of equity and debt capital to fund it, which is destabilizing and in some instances causing the collapse of some large law practices.

how do you cary your large filters in your bag/backpack?

Dang! How did you do that! I own a Nikon 77mm CP and the hard plastic case is really, really rugged! I would replace it with something similar. I carry it in my front pocket and can't imagine it breaking. Great filter, by the way.

Overrated (with a grain of salt)- GIT (though still stunning), Royal Water
Underrated- REL, OV
As I continue my new-found love affair with Acier Aluminum, it's made me think how underrated this gem is. It's made me want to explore some of the lesser-known scents from this house. Conversely, some of the more popular ones like Millisime Imperial have just never clicked with me. What do you guys think are the most underrated and overrated frags from Creed?
Overrated (with a grain of salt)- GIT (though still stunning), Royal Water
Underrated- REL, OV
Underrated: Baie de Genievre and Acier Aluminum
Overrated: Erolfa and Original Vetiver
underrated: bois du portugal, royal english leather, vetiver 1948
overrated: original santal, erolfa, himalaya,
Overrated for me: Green Irish Tweed, Himalaya, Millesime Imperial and Virgin Island Water

Millesime Imperial
Cuir de Russie
for me,
overrated: millesime imperial.
Overrate: GIT
Underrated: Green Valley
overrated - himalaya
underrated - CdR
underrated - Royal Scottish Lavender
overrated - GIT
I'm in with the chorus of GIT being overhyped. It's not a bad fragrance if you like what it does, but it's not the be-all and end-all of fragrance.
The same applies for the new Aventus. I actually like Aventus, but it's being treated like the second coming.
In the sadly neglected category, I'll mention the dark and intriguing Jasmin Imperatrice Eugenie and the creamy classic Cypres-Musc, both excellent fragrances that don't get a lot of talk.
Overrated: Millésime Imperial
Underrated: Himalaya
Looking for: Creed caps
I think this is more a question of what suits my nose, however;
Underrated - Green Valley, Baie de Genievre and Cypres Musc
Overrated, Millesime Imperial, Erolfa, and for being simply vile, Royal Delight.
Life's a bitch. If it were a slut it'd be easy.

Hi, I'm William | My Swap Thread
Over: MI, Tabarome
Under: ?
Overrated: Himalaya, MI, Original Santal
Underrated: Cypres-Musc and maybe REL
overrated: Millesime Imperial
underrated: Himalaya
Underrated: VIW and RW
Overrated: GIT and Aventus
I'm not as familiar with the Creeds but just from my store sniffing and sampling I'd come up with this list.
Over rated : GIT, SMW and even the new one everyone is raving about Aventus. Not that these are bad but as far as the general consensus on 'rating' and compared to my opinion of them. GIT to me is just wtf is this stuff. When I smelled it I though my sniffer was broke cause I thought how can something so highly praised be such a stench in my opinion. SMW is nice but there's some funk to it that makes me think a bear peed upstream in that 'mountain water'. Aventus has a great opening and even for an hour or so but the dry down gets my head hurting.
Under rated : Tabarome Millesime, everyone uses VT as a baseline comparison and it can't measure up to that timeless classic but it has it's own understated elegance. I enjoy it and have gotten great feedback from my female friends about it. Said it smells manly without being too 'cologny' one even called it an aphrodisiac so take that for what it's worth. Original Vetiver, I guess some like it enough but it gets a knock somewhat for being a copy of something else in many people's minds. Although I just love it and just recently discovered it. Original Santal, another one getting knocked for being a 'copy' but it's really a great frag. I wish I could wear it, it tickles my nose to the point I sneeze. It's pretty darn intense but when I wore it that once one of my g-friends went nuts over it.
Of course there are alot I haven't had the chance to smell and thus my experience with Creed is limited.

Well, I'll pass on the overrated category because GIT is SO popular that's it's too easy a target, and I really like it. As far as underrated, Baie de Genievre is my top choice, followed by Bois de Cedrat.
Underrated: Original Vetiver
Overrated: Green Irish Tweed
Underrated*: Tabarome Millesime
* I found this challenging since I find it much more difficult to find one that is not highly and widely rated but still decent. Original Vetiver almost made it, but it's too well liked by too many.
Overrated: 99% of Creed stuff
Underrated: Cypres Musc and Selection Verte
Yet another subjective question but here goes nothing.
Overrated: Green Irish Tweed
Underrated: Original Santal
[QUOTE Jasmin Imperatrice Eugenie QUOTE]
I LOVE this stuff and you never see anyone writing about or using it for SOTD. I only have a sample.
Your nostrils, which will dilate immesurably in unspeakable contentment, in motionless ecstasy, will ask nothing better for space, for they will be full of fragrance, as if perfumes and incense; for they will be glutted with complete happiness, like angels who dwell in the peace and magnificence of pleasent heaven.
(From Maldoror by Comte de Lautreamont)
+1 for all the overrated comments with Himalaya...yes its cold, yes the name and bottle are perfect for the scent, etc etc, it doesn't change the fact that the juice has no raison d'etre. When can you pick it? Its like the clumsy kid being chosen last on a sports team...when I face my wardrobe every morning, there never seems to be a reason to smell synthetically cold that day.
I guess I am keeping it around for a possible Everest expedition.
I have not had a chance to sample Aventus, but I cannot image it NOT being RIDICULOUSLY overrated. I have not seen a group of guys this excited about anything since Pure Malt was discontinued. It seems many people here would consider it their go-to desert island fragrance...provided that the only sustenance on the island was not pineapples....
Overrated: Himalaya
Underrated: Virgin Island Water
With regard to the above posters comments regarding Aventus... yes it is overrated, but then again, people on here have been talking about it like one spray will result in a life changing experience!! It's a great smell, obviously made with high quality ingredients, the wife loves it, but it's pretty one dimensional.
To me, saying any of them are overrated is just picking the ones I don't like.
I will say imo Virgin Island Water is underrated. That one snuck up and surprised me big time. I eschewed it for years. It's quite nice and shockingly love lived on me.
Overrated: Viagr... I mean Aventus.
I think it's great, personally, and it really is a compliment getter, but the rep is just getting so huge, and the unearned title of "panty-dropper" looming so large, that this scent is now demanding its own float in the Thanksgiving Day Parade.
Underrated: Bois de Cedrat, Santal Imperial, Tabarôme Millesime, Epicea, Jasmin Imperatrice Eugenie.
overrated: Himalaya, original santal, bois du protugal
underrated: santal imperial, jasmal, others
Is the juice worth the squeeze?
Underrated: Green Valley and Acier Aluminium
Overrated: Millesime Imperial. Nice, and I enjoy the smell of it but nothing mind blowing
Underrated: Selection Verte. Smells like a crisp, green, slightly overhung morning, when winter is finally becoming spring.
Overrated: GIT, Huge price tag for smelling like fresh forest wet grass.
Underrated: Aventus, needs more hype so online sellers can carry it.
Looking to purchase - Aventus any size or participate in a split
I have only sampled a handful of Creeds ( GIT, RW, SMW, Himalaya and REL.) All of them were pretty good at what they do.
REL was excellent in my opinion and I rarely hear anyone talk it up.
Overrated: Definitely Aventus. I think the stuff smelsl "good." I've gotten compliments. But in reality it is pineapple to a light, almost non-existent musk/ambergris drydown and that is it. I just don't get wow out of it at all.
"As you walk down the fairway of life you must smell the roses, for you only get to play one round."
--Ben Hogan
I'm *shocked* that nobody mentioned Angelique Encens as the single most underrated Creed. As an aside, it was, for a very long time, Creed's most expensive fragrance to produce (according to an interview with Erwin Creed). I'll +1 Selection Verte.
Overrated: Green Irish Tweed and Millesime İmperial.
Overrated: Original Santal and Original Vetiver ("original"? Yeah, right!)
Underrated: Bois Du Portugal, Baie De Genièvre, Green Valley
Kurt smells like Teen Spirit
Millesime İmperial is overrated, as is Virgin Island Water (what good is it if it only lasts a so briefly, what a joke)....in a way GIT falls there too...Aventus' longevity is good, so that I like a lot. Bois du Portugal also impressed me, I thought that was going to be an outdated, old man smell but it's a surprisingly great fragrance.
Overrated: The hate MI gets
Actually Overrated: Original Vetiver, Bois du Portugal
Underrated: Silver Mountain Water, although I dunno if I can truly say any Creed is underrated...
Green Valley is underrated and sadly discontinued...VIW is neither under or over IMO...and my bottle has amazing longevity (12 hours or more).
Underrated: Green Irish Tweed. Seriously, why doesn't anybody ever talk about this one?
"I am a robot and I like cheese"
Top 5:
1. Axe Kilo
2. Lectric Shave
3. Vicks Vapor Rub
4. Febreze Pour Homme
5. Preferred Stock
Overated: Aventus
Underated: Green Valley
I cannot say underrated because of my lack of exposure to Creeds, but MI is definitely a let down. It's good, but nothing too special.
Overrated: Adventus, GIT, Love in White;
Underrated: SMW, Original Vetiver, Love in Black;
Sadly not the same anymore: Jasmin I.E. and other female ones.
Bad girls don't cry but get even.
Overrated: Green Irish Tweed... I can't stand this stuff! If I got a free bottle of it, I would trade it sooo fast!
Underrated: Original Santal (great stuff, it makes you stand out and is refined at the same time.)
Himalaya is another Great underrated summer fragrance also
Midnight in Paris 5 STARS
Pure Malt 5 STARS
Rose 31 5 STARS
Overrated: Aventus, Himalaya
Underrated: BDP, Tabarome
Overrated: Aventus, Himalaya, Royal Water
Underrated: SMW (really starting to like this one), Alcier Aluminum
Underrated: Acier Aluminum
Overrated: GIT
Underrated: Windsor
Overrated: GIT
Over - Himalaya
Under - Tabaome Millesime
Overrated: MI (although it is very nice)
Underrated: Spice and Woods, Vetiver '48, Green Valley.
Actually, many Creeds are underrated.
Overrated: Aventus, Green Irish Tweed
Underrated: Erolfa, Royal Water
In general, the house of Creed is overrated. Not a bad thing for me though, as I do like this fragrance house.
Overrated: MI (airy with no projection at all)
Underrated: SMW, VIW
I feel Original Vetiver isn't getting enough love. It's just wonderful - and I get this amazing fusion of "clean" mixed with fresh basil, a fantastic take on vetiver.
Most over-rated, I'm tempted to appoint MI. I have it - and really like it, but I don't think I'd put it top three on my Creed-list. Dunno, could be growing on me during warmer weather. It DOES last quite a bit on me - even though I fail to detect it on myself after a while. My girlfriend can easily detect it close by six hours after application.

Mumble and Murmur in Version 1.1.8
The software is oriented to TeamSpeak and gamers: the voice chat product Mumble is now available together with the Murmur server in version 1.1.8.
When gamers converse over the Net they usually use specialized software such as TeamSpeak -- or perhaps Mumble. Mumble is a TeamSpeak alternative, with freely available source code, that allows multiple users to exchange chats during gaming sessions. It has two components, the Murmur server and the Mumble client.
The Murmur server uses less working memory in the new version and starts threads on demand only for virtual servers. The now fully documented Internet Communications Engine (Ice) RPC framework works over a callback function and allows for server-side scripting that reacts to user requests. Ice authentication is external and available to third-party databases.
The welcoming server facility allows for graphics and text message integration through normal HTML. Client-side context menus allow for expansion by third-party developers. At least under Windows the audio matches player positions and Mumble supports more games, such as Battlefield 2, Call of Duty 4, Warsow and Sauerbraten.
Multiple key combos are available for shortcuts and balloon tool tips show log notifications. The text-to-speech function can be expanded with prepared sounds. Mumble and Murmur are available for testing on the SourceForge download site.

This collar is cute

I like this collar because the colors are exciting. Is it durable? Not sure about that?
Pros: this is very cute and I like the colors
Cons: not sure how durable it would be?

Cute collar!
posted 7 years ago
This is a very nice-looking collar and would really suit a 'fancier' breed like a poodle, shi-tzu, etc. It might look a little funny on a large breed.
Pros: very cute

A Jewish Encounter With Cambodia
Meeting a different kind of survivor abroad
Though I was raised Jewish in Philadelphia, went to synagogue, attended Jewish events, and lived in Israel, I've never met a concentration camp survivor. On the other hand, since I moved to Phnom Penh, the Cambodian capital, early last year, I've met plenty of people who've been through hell.
Every couple of months I seem to read a story about the awkwardness that foreigners feel in these brushes. Mine happened last November when I took my parents to Tuol Sleng, a notorious former prison where thousands were tortured under Khmer Rouge rule in the late 1970s. We had toured most of the old prison cells and exhibits that now stand on the site, when we walked across the sunny square and passed an old man sitting behind a table of books. I recognized his photo as one of the few known survivors of the prison, Chum Mey, an 82-year-old man with small tufts of silver hair hanging on to a mostly bald head. Mey is one of the most visible survivors of the Khmer Rouge, making himself available to tourists and responding to developments at the tribunal when journalists call him on his cell phone. Mey, who survived because of his prized mechanical skills, is one of two former inmates who came back to the prison where they were tortured, to sell memoirs, take pictures, and talk to people about his past. (Imagine, if you can, Primo Levi selling copies of If This is a Man outside the gates at Auschwitz.) I learned he could make up to $200 a day.
"Sometimes," he told me through a translator, "I cry following the tourists who react to my story. When they buy my books, they ask me about my life during Khmer Rouge, and their tears drop down when I tell them and show my photos when I was here at the time, and I also cry. It is really hurtful for me to sell at the place where I suffered, but from day to day, I can reduce it. It is not so painful today."
Most tourists want to take their picture with him. I knew he had just published a memoir, so I asked for a copy. He leaned in and pointed to the cover, saying three words in English: "New. York. Times." He must have been referring to Seth Mydans, the former Times correspondent in Cambodia who assisted with the text. I bought a copy, and while I waited for my change, he started to arrange chairs on either side of him.
"What's he doing?" my dad asked.
"I think we're supposed to take a picture with him," I said.
"A picture?" my dad asked, holding the camera poised at chest level. "No, we can't do that. Let the man have his dignity."
We ended up not taking the photo, and instead moved on after some thank yous and smiles. When I thought about it later, I realized it was a moment that captured the chasm between tourists and Cambodians who lived through the Khmer Rouge regime. There's the survivor, happy to sit with us and tell his story—not the first time he would do it that day, not the last. And then there's us, the outsiders looking in, uncomprehending. We still don't understand what the locals refer to simply as "the Pol Pot time."
But as Jews, we do understand genocide, so there may be some way to comprehend the horrors of the Khmer Rouge. The U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum is planning a small exhibit about the Cambodian genocide, as I reported today for Tablet. Read the full article here.

BLOCK: Envisioning Future Cities in a Video Game
BLOCK is a video game that "will breach the digital with the physical" and allow anyone to become an active participant in the future of Los Angeles. Described by FAST Co.Exist as "Minecraft for real life" the gameplay, which also bears similarity to The Sims, is founded on understanding the interdependencies of city entities such as housing, shops, parks and infrastructure. The objective of the game is to both educate people and to generate user data for design patterns for the Los Angeles of 2050, producing the first database of a future city. BLOCK allows the player to understand the ecology of the urban realm (focusing on resources such as money, waste, and social capital) ultimately encouraging entrepreneurship "through the design of an ecological urbanism." Fundamentally, it allows for new opportunities to be conceived in the city.
'THE:SQUARE³' Mixed-Use Development Proposal / Moritz Gruppe + LAVA
Conceived by visionary developer Moritz Gruppe and designed by internationally acclaimed architects, LAVA, the three towers of gold, silver, and bronze and three diagonal shaped city blocks make up THE:SQUARE³, a new mixed use development inspired by sport that revitalizes a unique urban quarter in Berlin. With the theme, 'Life, Nature, Sports', their mixed-use concept is perfectly adapted and related to the nearby environment and reflects the local centre of excellence for high-performance sport, promotes local, national and global sports, generating positive social, health and economic benefits to the area. More images and architects' description after the break.
SOM Wins Bid to Design Los Angeles Federal Courthouse
The GSA has announced that Skidmore, Owings, & Merrill have been selected as the architects of the new Los Angeles Federal Courthouse, which will house the U.S. District Court, Central District of California, and the U.S. Marshals Service. The architects beat out 3 other shortlisted teams to win the $318 million project.
According to the GSA, "The new 550,000-square-foot building will be a sustainable, cost-effective, state-of-the-art court facility that includes security upgrades that are not available in the current 312 North Spring Street courthouse."
The site, located at 107 South Broadway (down the street from Morphosis' Caltrans building, LA's City Hall, and the Walt Disney Concert Hall) has been dormant since 2007; although a $1.1 billion design by Perkins + Will was selected soon after, it was abandoned when Congress slashed the GSA's construction budget. The GSA considers the approval of the new redevelopment plan a "major milestone."

The Indian captain blunted the pacemen at one end, while Sehwag cut loose at the other None of the Pakistan bowlers could get the ball to reverse swing alarmingly It was a triumph for emergency opener Dravid when he reached his 21st Test hundred
Lahore: The Indian campaign in Pakistan received a psychological boost with the opening pair remaining unseparated for 75 overs in a bright tale of continuity on a cloudy day of interruptions.
India captain and non-regular opener Rahul Dravid made a statement with an effort of raging intensity at the crease - that his team would be resilient on this demanding tour. And Virender Sehwag signalled a return to form in the only manner he knows - thumping the bowlers around and bringing back memories of the unhappy kind for the host.
The swashbuckling Sehwag and the technically accomplished Dravid, have in a monumental opening partnership, added 403 runs in 320 minutes of batting in the first Allianz Test at the Gaddafi ground on Monday.
At close on the fourth day, Sehwag (247 batting, 240b, 46x4, 1x6) and Dravid (128 batting, 227b, 19x4) were on the brink of the all-time Test record opening stand of 413 between countrymen Pankaj Roy and Vinoo Mankad against New Zealand in Madras in 1955-56.
On a placid pitch that has proved heart-breaking for the bowlers, India appears well placed to surpass the home team's mammoth first innings score of 679 for seven on the fifth and final day.
Pakistan, which has a superior pace attack, has definitely not done its cause any good by preparing a pitch that has now enabled the Indians to seize the mental initiative.
Frustrated lot
As the day drew towards a close, the Pakistani pacemen Shoaib Akhtar and Mohammed Sami revealed their frustration by indulging in gamesmanship. Akhtar attempted to engage Dravid in a verbal duel, but the Indian captain, apart from looking the fiery paceman in the eye, did not take the bait. Sami walked down the pitch and there was a subsequent exchange of words between him and Sehwag.
The Indian captain blunted the pacemen at one end, and Sehwag cut loose at the other. Their contrast in styles meant that the Pakistani bowlers were forced to bowl different lengths to different field settings.
The blazing Delhi batsman reached his 11th Test hundred with a rasping cover drive, and despite breaks due to weather, did not lose his rhythm. His driving square off the wicket and through the covers was imperious. If the ball was on the middle and leg-stumps, he was quick with his flick. And he invariably found the gaps, as paceman Rana Naved found out, getting hit for a barrage of boundaries.
Dravid has this inspirational quality about him, and, perhaps the sight of his captain proving rock-solid at the other end spurred Sehwag on. He did fend a couple of lifting deliveries awkwardly off his ribs, but for most part, the Delhi batsman handled short-pitched bowling creditably.
Technically, Sehwag is attempting to sway away from the line by keeping his eyes on the ball. The method, still not perfected by him, cannot, however, be faulted.
Sehwag's driving down the ground was impeccable and he used his feet to strike Danish Kaneria - who failed to impress - over the infield and over the ropes. He kept picking the length of the ball in a jiffy and was ready with an answer.
Sehwag gave a chance on 199 when Shoaib Malik failed to hold a difficult catch at third man, but had earned some luck for himself. He motored to the second quickest double hundred (his third in Test cricket) in Test history, off only 182 balls. Earlier, the Indian vice-captain also notched up the fastest hundred (93 balls) by an Indian opener, bettering Sunil Gavaskar's 94-ball effort at the expense of the West Indian bowlers in the Delhi Test of 1983.
Interestingly, Sehwag's partner Dravid constructed an innings that would have done Gavaskar proud. Much like Gavaskar, Dravid has the shots and like the legendary opener, the Indian captain cut out the risks in the interest of the team. With unwavering focus and a tight defence, he took the sting off the Pakistani pace attack.
Perfect judgment
Dravid's judgment was impeccable; he was so certain about his off-stump that he did not provide the Pakistani pacemen with a hint of an opportunity. He was perfectly balanced in defence and later in the innings essayed some lovely off-drives, flicks and square cuts.
It was a triumph for the emergency opener when he swept off-spinner Malik to reach his 21st Test hundred.
Dravid's duels with the opposition are as much mental as technical. He has a Steve Waugh-like toughness about him. He doesn't wilt under pressure; he thrives on adversity.
The Pakistani bowlers suffered on a surface that held little for them. But then, neither Akhtar nor the expensive Rana or Sami could get the ball to reverse swing alarmingly. This factor holds much significance for both sides.
Meanwhile, Pakistan named an unchanged squad for the second Test.
Pakistan - 1st innings: 679 for seven decl.
India - 1st innings: V. Sehwag (batting) 247, R. Dravid (batting) 128;
Extras (b-2, lb-7, w-2, nb-17): 28; Total (for no loss in 75 overs) 403.
Pakistan bowling: Akhtar 15-6-45-0, Rana Naved 15-1-88-0, Afridi 11-0-55-0, Sami 12-1-67-0, Kaneria 10-0-69-0, Malik 12-1-70-0.

We've reached Tuesday in Saints Land and that means, well, the same thing Monday, Sunday and Saturday meant right now. It's groundhog day at Saints Camp until the end of the month when training camp breaks.
But that also means lots of information on the internet about the team and to help you break to a great morning, here are some links for your entertainment needs.
Reports say that the Saints have signed running back Ladell Betts. The team has no't confirmed the move to WWL-TV.
Meanwhile, receiver Robert Meachem returned to practice from the PUP list, his first action since training camp began.
When Thomas Morstead went down with a separated shoulder against the Patriots, the question was this - who would punt? Turns out, Garrett Hartley was the perfect substitute.
Everyone questioned who would fill Scott Fujita's spot at strongside linebacker. The answer was different than we all expected with the emergence of Jonathan Casillas.
For the first time all preseason, the Saints did goal line drills during practice.
Elsewhere on the interweb:
Brian Allee-Walsh of NewOrleans.com says cornerback Reggie Jones is making a good impression this preseason.
Sheldon Mickles of the Baton Rouge Advocate writes that head coach Sean Payton will use a three-headed monster at running back.
Mickles also says the Saints have the pieces to repeat their championship run.
James Varney, friend of the EOSB and T-P/NOLA.com writer, says signing Betts made Payton's prediction come true.
Mike Triplett, also of the T-P/NOLA.com gangsters, writes that Anthony Hargrove isn't satisfied with his past season. He wants more.
Nationally speaking:
Adam Schefter and Chris Mortenson of ESPN.com were in town Monday and spoke with Sean Payton and Drew Brees, who wants nothing more than to have another Super Bowl experience.
But standing in the way of the Saints in the NFC South is Atlanta.
The National Football Post says to make room for Betts, the Saints cut Larry Beavers.
Bill Bradley of the Sacramento Bee says he will root for the Saints now. The first comment is quite hysterical, by the way.

(AP) The security contractor at a Tennessee plant that stores the nation's supply of highly enriched uranium has appointed an acting general manager almost two weeks after three protesters, including an 82-year-old nun, got into a high-security area.
Officials say the protesters on July 28 were found hanging banners in the dark, singing and offering to break bread with the security guards at Y-12 Oak Ridge National Security Complex in Knoxville. They were arrested and officials say all nuclear materials are safe.
WSI-Oak Ridge confirmed to the Knoxville News Sentinel (http://bit.ly/MqW3ex ) Wednesday that Steven C. Hafner will replace the removed Lee Brooks as general manager
The Y-12 Protective Force director, Gary Brandon, also was relieved of duty. Both he and Brooks will be reassigned.
The plant provides nuclear fuel for the Navy and research reactors worldwide.

Taiwanese mobile phone maker HTC has filed a patent complaint against Apple, asking for the US sale of iPhones, iPads and iPods to be halted. The move comes after Apple sued HTC in March, alleging it infringed 20 patents relating to the iPhone.
Meanwhile, the world's biggest mobile phone maker Nokia is also embroiled in a patent suit with Apple. Analysts say firms frequently argue over patents, but the rows rarely lead to product bans. In its case at the U.S. International Trade Commission, HTC argued that Apple had infringed on five of its patents. The firm asked for a ban on the importation of Apple's products, which are manufactured overseas.
"We are taking this action against Apple to protect our intellectual property, our industrial partners, and most importantly our customers that use HTC phones," said Jason Mackenzie, HTC's vice president for North America.
In March, when Apple launched its action, co-founder Steve Jobs put out a statement which said: "We can sit by and watch competitors steal our patented inventions, or we can do something about it. We've decided to do something about it."
Industry watchers are not surprised by the escalating patent disputes surrounding Apple. "It's tit-for-tat to a degree because Apple sued HTC first and this is HTC fighting back," Van Baker of research firm Gartner told the BBC. — © BBC News/Distributed by the New York Times Syndicate

Baton Rouge, LA -- More than $181.7 million in federal-state grants and loans flowed into the 39 parishes declared for the twin disasters, Tropical Storm Isidore and Hurricane Lili, since the presidential declarations Sept. 27 and Oct. 3.
Also a fund in excess of $20 million will be used by the state for their top priority, elevating/acquiring individual primary residences with substantial and repetitive damage. The amount of this fund is determined by a percentage of the total disaster aid and is administered by the state with the assistance of remaining Federal Emergency Agency (FEMA) mitigation grant program specialists.
Carlos Mitchell, federal coordinating officer, urged any residents with uninsured disaster-related losses to register for disaster assistance before the 60-day application period and extension expires on Saturday, Dec. 14.
"Our toll-free registration line, 800-621-FEMA, will close at 6 p.m. (CST) on Saturday," Mitchell said. Speech or hearing-impaired residents should call (TTY/TDD) 800-462-7585.
Residents in declared parishes may apply for FEMA and state recovery assistance including grants for emergency disaster housing and essential repairs, individual and family grants for necessities not covered by insurance or other sources and low-interest loans from the U. S. Small Business Administration (SBA).
State Coordinating Officer Art Jones said that more than $13 million in new assistance, including SBA loans, was approved and 7,703 new registrations were recorded in the latest reporting period, Dec. 1 through Dec. 12. Jones said a total of 170,703 residents have registered for a wide variety of recovery programs.
A snapshot of individual assistance recovery totals: (through COB, Dec. 12)
- $66.4 million for housing assistance for approved applicants;
- $69 million in approved grants to individuals and households; and
- $46.3 million in SBA low-interest loans to approved homeowners and businesses incurring uninsured losses.
