Angel Food's Katy Gerdes on Project Runway, pizza donuts, and winning $10,000
If you're a fan of donuts and competition cooking, then you probably already know about the show Donut Showdown on the Cooking Channel. But if you weren't tuned in for Friday night's episode, you might not know that our very own Katherine Gerdes of Angel Food Bakery went head to head against two other competitors in a fierce pastry throw down -- and won big.
Local pastry chef Katherine Gerdes won big on the Cooking Channel's Donut Showdown
While donuts were new territory for her, Gerdes is no stranger to televised competition. We sat down to talk a little bit about donuts, baking for Angel Food, and how her time as a competitor on Project Runway helped her to prepare for the world of pastry competition.

Hot Dish: You started out in the professional world as a fashion designer. How did you manage to go from the runway to a pastry kitchen?
Chef Katherine Gerdes, patron saint of pastries
Katherine Gerdes: I've always been into baking so as I kid I was always doing it in the summers and whenever I was bored, or for family holidays. I don't have a grandma that bakes and my mom doesn't cook, so when we needed 10 pies for Easter, that was always my job. I was just kind of self-taught that way and then all through design school, I would get a job as a pastry assistant. I just kind of talked my way into those jobs and I'm not exactly sure why anybody actually hired me, but I think I was good for summer assistant.
Then I did the fashion thing and to put it bluntly, I just don't like that industry. My personality just doesn't gel well with the fashion industry. I'm not cutthroat in that kind of way. I mean, I'm super competitive in other ways, but I just couldn't put up with it.
Having a design background could actually be pretty helpful in terms of pastry. Would you say you were able to put those skills toward baking?
I needed to get out of the fashion world, so the next logical move was to find a job doing something I knew that I could get a job as, which was a pastry chef. The design lends itself really well to pastry, because anybody can put frosting on top of a cupcake, but can you make it look nice? Can you make people want to buy it for $3? Having gone to design school, you can translate that way of thinking into anything that you do. So it's like, how do I take this baking recipe that's maybe clear-cut and how can I change it to make it something brand new?
So, once upon a time, you were a contestant on Project Runway. Were you able to take things that you learned from that experience and apply it to the Donut Showdown?
I think my biggest fault on Project Runway was that I was too aware of the fact that I didn't want to be known as the crazy person on the show, which is something I still believe. I don't want to be known as the crazy person on TV, so I was too self aware in that case. I also was working for Target design at the time, which is obviously very retail-driven, having to think about what millions of people are going to buy, so those two things combined made for a very boring TV persona.
The sheer fact that I'm a business owner now and having to be more aggressive in my daily life, that's helped to bring a lot of personality out of me and on TV, that's what they want to see so I'm not going to hide that. You know, we have 45 minutes to make two dozen donuts and if something gets messed up I don't have time to [say to] Crystal who's my assistant on the show and one of my chefs, I don't have time when we're on TV to be like, "Crystal, I think your hair is really pretty and I love you, but you really screwed that up, so lets try this again." Instead I just have to be like, "DO IT AGAIN!" and just yell at her, and they want that. That's what they want to see on TV and that's what it's like in the bakery on a daily basis.
Would you say that the open kitchen environment of Angel Food helped to make you feel a little bit more comfortable for the show?
You know, I do TV appearances pretty regularly for like live cooking demos and stuff, and at a certain point, you know, they just say that you have to pretend that the cameras aren't there. So I just have to do what I do, and having this bakery has really helped, especially this bakery because you can see everything that we do. You get used to doing everything while you think people are scrutinizing you and if you screw while people are watching, you almost have to pretend that you didn't screw up and be like, "No, I meant to redo this, I just didn't want to do it right the first time!" Having an open kitchen is a lot like being on TV all the time, so I think we were pretty prepared for that mentality.

Coming out is a pretty important process.
And it is a process. For Trans people, coming out is made a little more complicated, and the degree of complication follows the sort of trans person they are.
For some Trans people, coming out is really and truly just a matter of wearing clothes that make you feel better about yourself.
For others, it's about performing, about creating an illusion, about impersonation.
For even others, coming out is a monumental undertaking that once done, coming out as something else is easy.
I'm not qualified to speak about coming out for every sort of trans person. I don't know the struggles that a genderqueer person has to go through, or a bigender person who is both, or a person for whom gender is meaningless and detrimental to a degree inversely proportional to the degree for which gender is of great meaning and beneficial to me.
Later in the year, there is a national coming out day. This is early spring, though, a time of renewal and growth and rebirth and newness, and I should probably point out that for me, personally, it's very early in the new year, which started just a short while ago. Indeed, it's still the first month. 12 and a half to go, not counting the holidays.
Which I don't expect people to understand, any more than I can be expected to understand the agender person I reference above.
But I can at least explain what coming out for someone in a situation like mine — a transsexual woman — is like in general, because for Trans folk, coming out is much, much more complicated…
Some of you may be wondering "what? How can it be more complicated?"
Well, it's kinda like this. Imagine coming out as gay and everyone laughing at you and telling you you were nuts because you are the straightest person in the world. And then they cite all the women or men you've been attracted to, all the incredibly heterosexual aspects of your life, and tell you no one will ever believe you are gay, and you'll never get a date because you just don't look gay enough or act gay enough or, well, *are* gay enough.
That's what coming out as a transsexual is like. Those first few days, those heady moments when you are ready to explode because you've felt freedom in your veins and you can cast off that "lie", all too often for trans folk they are met with scorn and disbelief (except by those who actually believe you, they often react with disgust and abhorrence). It's "funny". It's "not possible".
If you are lucky, you find a few people who aren't that way — and each year, it does indeed get easier and easier, because so many have gone before us now, and there is talk of us in the news that isn't wholly nasty. Sometimes they are and stay your good friends, as an Amy found out when she transitioned in Los Angeles, according to a recent Glamour magazine article.
Then again, Amy had come out Gay before, and only realized later that she wasn't actually gay.
For many of those similar in what we trans folk call "narrative" to me, we knew it at a very young age, but we were kids and we were told that as kids we didn't know very well, our elders knew better, and we longed for our parents approval and they usually expressed disapproval if we "misbehaved" or "acted out" or were "bad", or else they worried about us and took us to doctors and had tests done and made sure we had appropriate role models (ostensibly lest we turn out gay, which, for them, meant not masculine or feminine enough).
So we walled it off inside us, kept it as a secret from the world, and did the best we could to "get over it" and be "real", or "be normal".
From Testosterone injections that would be considered malpractice today to forced participation in activities deemed masculine to protein powders and exercise regimens (I was expected to pass the Presidential physical fitness tests of the day), my childhood — which I will note was a good childhood, a fairly happy one once I surrendered and did the easy thing and buried my inner self — was a litany of activities intended to make me a man one day.
I took risks people called stupid. Put myself in danger. And, as I've noted, I had one hell of a violent and sometimes uncontrolled temper. It took less than a year at the various schools I attended for Bullies to learn you simply did not bully me. I was meaner, crueler, harsher, nastier, and far more dangerous than any ten of them put together.
Something like what Juin and Constance went through would have, for me, just been an excuse to push harder. Against authority, against establishment, against the way things are. Because that's what my childhood experiences taught me. Those aspects are still with me today, as many have likely seen.
I was 41 years old before I started to come out. I almost did in my 20s, but gave up instead.
My "narrative" is different than many. I didn't crossdress as an adult. I didn't have urges. I wasn't gay, so I didn't go into that area. I had a succession of girlfriends from the age of 12 or 13 on. I was chaste until I was 18, and I have a great losing your virginity story that I get a kick out of. I also made up for lost time after that. I never talked about it, I never revealed it, and I only permitted it to come out twice each day, with the first thought, unspoken, of each morning and the last thought, unspoken, each night.
You might wonder what that has to do with coming out. Well, it's foundational stuff.
Coming Out As Trans
When I came out, I said the words aloud to myself. That was it. That was all I needed to come out, to be out. I told others, and the reaction was of the sort I described above. MY wife told me I couldn't possibly be such — I was the most macho man she knew — even more so than her father. One freind at the time, who was gay, told me I was cutting the most important thing off. Most other people just looked at me as if I was nuts, or smiled and nodded and figured I'd get through whatever weird phase it was soon enough.
So while I'd come out to myself, I hadn't come out to the world. I could have jumped up and down and screamed and no one would have taken it seriously. I could have written a press release, gone on national TV, and the effect would still have been the same.
And it really is that way until that day that people see you dressed right. Until you "look like a transsexual". Awkward, self conscious, kinda dazed, scared, hopeful, panicked.
That's coming out for a transsexual. For some, it means months of effort, and lots of money. For others, it means hormones and surgeries and laser or electrolysis — all of it to get to a point where you can have "that first time out".
For Trans people, coming out means going out. It means being seen, facing the world, challenging everything that everyone knows and thinks.
It also means danger.
When you are coming out, your head is filled with horror stories. You see drag queens and you weep because you do not want to be seen as a man in a dress, as a man pretending to be a woman or some butch lesbian or adult tomboy, laughed at when you try to hang with the guys. You worry about the self destructive ideal of "passing" because you know that if you "pass" then you will not be at risk, you might be less likely to end up headless or your skull bashed in.
You internalize shame and guilt when you come out as trans. It colors your perceptions. It affects your ability to make decisions about spouses, children, parents, siblings, family, friends.
Think about that for a few moments, please. Coming out, the process, suddenly places you into a situation where you internalize shame and guilt — the very things you are seeking to get away from by, well, coming out.
So can that, really, be called "coming out" for trans folk — for transsexuals?
I honestly question that.
There are social skills and quirks that need to be learned, confidence that needs be built up, a sense of self that needs to be found again — and that one is ever so hard, because when you change your sex, you change the things people look at you to see. It is not easy, not pleasant.
The Tunnel and the Train
I've used the metaphor of the long tunnel before. I know it is used often in a lot of things. THere is a great deal of literary history to the Tunnel and it's actually more than a little mythic, as it symbolizes a journey to the underworld — or, for the less prosaic, it's kinda like dying. and in this case, there's a realness to that idea.
You start out and the entrance is still brightly lit, and you've been told there's an exit but you can't see it for the bend that's many long feet up ahead. As you go further in, the fear begins to mount, the risks become greater, you realize that those really are train tracks at your feet. So long as you can still see the light behind you, it's "ok". You can always turn back, always run back and hope that things will be the same, even though they really aren't. But then you hit that point where you cannot see the way back, and you still can't see the way forward, and it's so dark you can't see your nose cross-eyed.
When I use that metaphor, I point out that at some point, you will see a light. And you will hear a noise. And you will realize a train is indeed coming. And for Trans people, you gotta let hit you, I say.
Sometimes you don't have to hit a train. Sometimes you can just go right on through. Some people go in brave and get scared, others start scared and stay that way, still others go in scared and come out brave and there's all sorts of different ways to be in there, and the only thing that many of us can do is hold out our hands and hope that someone is there to walk with us, to hold our hand, because it is always easier to travel that path with another, and always harder to do it alone.
And then comes the day when you see the light at the end of that tunnel, and you see the way Out.
And as you finally step into the light after so long in the dark, you can feel many things. For me, it was relief and joy and wonder and exultation.
But I'm going to take note of something.
Coming out for Trans people is when you step out of that long dark tunnel.
After The Tunnel
It's long after you've come out to yourself. It's after you've hopped through the hoops that circumstance and medicine have placed before you, after the hormones and the money spent on clothes and the painful process of electrolysis (which some people say is what proves one is a transsexual, because that stuff can hurt like hell) and all the rest.
That's when you Come Out. That's when you reach the point that you can shed the internalized guilt and shame and sadness and privilege and prejudice.
That's when coming out is for Trans people — when they've reached that point where they are seen as who they are, not merely what they are. That's when people say "Oh, that's cool." Or "Wow, you sure look good!" or other such idiocies that still make you feel really damn good for a while but eventually do get on your nerves as you start to see them for what they are.
But it's not over yet.
And once in a while, a few of us who have made that journey, we pause at the exit, and we look back, and we remember that horrible tunnel. And we know there are people still in it. Sometimes, like a panicked person who is drowning, there is a risk of being stuck in there again yourself, held back by their fear, their shame, their darkness.
Most of the time you help them out of that tunnel, holding their hand after you find it when they hold theirs out. And then, once out, they wander off into the world, and you never quite know if they are doing well or what happens to them — because you've walked back into that tunnel already to help another one.
Until you reach a point where you just can't help anymore and you take that walk into the world.
And so you leave that tunnel's mouth and you follow the road and you head around a bend and you are free of it. And there are people there, and you have a little soot from the tunnel on you, and you have a choice to make.
You can wipe that soot — that black mark, that stain, that stigma — off of you and just "blend in", and talk about how you've no idea about what the tunnel is, and you can be just like them, just like everyone else, and not like those freaks in the tunnel.
Or you can keep the smudge, the stain, the black mark, and mingle.
Among transsexuals, that is a question that many ask themselves — do I hold onto that stain and be marked, or do I wipe it away? It helps if you look a lot like those people, and sometimes it doesn't matter — no matter how much you wipe the stain off, people still choose to see it because you don't look enough like everyone else.
Coming out is good for everyone. That wiping off is what we call stealth or blending in or woodworking or any of a dozen other terms borne up through the years.
It is very good for the person. Doing it reduces your risk of harm to yourself. Doing it means people don't add more ill will, it makes th8ngs easier, it simplifies things. You become invisible, unseen, ordinary.
And there are some for whom that shame never really goes away, and they cling to that ideal the whole trip and the whole journey and they come out that's what they do, joining the others they want to be like so much and saying bad stuff about those who still have that mark, who refuse to wash it off.
But that's bad for the rest of them, that invisibility — it is something that one does for one's self, not for the community.
So when you talk about Coming out, remember to talk about staying out. Remember that for Trans people it is not an easy thing, and it is painful and not something they can do without the help of others — therapists, surgeons, drugs and it takes a long time.
From the day I came out to myself, it took me two and half years to Come Out.
And after all of that, Coming out Bisexual was about as hard as writing the words and saying them.

Intervene in public issues, staff told
Kozhikode: Education and Cultural Affairs Minister M.A. Baby has deplored the tendency of a section of the media to glory individuals and groups inclined to militant ideologies.
He was inaugurating the valedictory session of the golden jubilee of 'Kerala Service,' an organ of the Kerala NGO Union, at the Tagore Centenary Hall here on Thursday.
Mr. Baby also accused the section of the media of protecting the forces that exploited society for business profit.
At the same time, he said, this section attempted to annihilate the progressive forces.
Mr. Baby said the State government employees needed to focus not only on their wages and service conditions but also intervene in public issues.

NEW YORK ( TheStreet) -- "Caution" is the word in this technology earnings season, with heavyweights such as Intel (INTC), Texas Instruments (TXN - Get Report), IBM (IBM) and Seagate (STX - Get Report) lamenting spending softness and currency losses. Silicon Valley CEOs and CFOs, however, say there's no need to panic.
Texas Instruments CFO Kevin March said investors shouldn't be
overly concerned about uncertain and sometimes unstable global economies, which
informed its third-quarter guidance.
"It's not like we're heading for a global decline or anything," he said in an interview. "The important thing is that we're still growing, and we're likely to grow."
Texas Instruments, which is seen as a key barometer for the broader tech sector, nonetheless said customers are cautious about placing new orders.Hard-drive specialist Seagate echoed this sentiment in its fiscal fourth-quarter results, released on Monday. "As we were exiting the quarter, there were a lot of macro headwinds that made it difficult to predict revenue," said Seagate CFO Pat O'Malley during an interview. "Our OEMs

CA Coast Question
I'll be in LA in the middle of January. What is the highway up to San Francisco like in winter?
How about 101 on up the coast?
Ice or snow issues right along the coast?
There is Hwy 1 (Pacific Coast Highway aka:PCH) and Hwy 101, in some places they are one and the same, but mostly PCH sticks close to the coast and is at most 2 lanes in each direction. The 101 is mostly 2 lanes in each direction and is freeway or limited access highway. The 101 goes inland from the coast and is heavily traveled. Staying right on the coast you may see some frost in the early mornings but usually not more than that (mostly due to the ocean warmth). Inland on the 101 will see colder temps but besides some frost but agian it not that bad. Further north from SF you go it will get colder. Last January I rode up to Washington from Southern Calif. Way North of SF I went up Interstate 5 and got into real cold temps (mid 20's) and some freezing rain. Again way North of SF I came back south on PCH and it was low to mid 30's in the mornings, but by noon it was in the 50's.
Early mornings in places on pch may be icy, but later in the a.m. it melts quick. PCH between San Francisco and L.A. a bitchen' ride with lots of coastal views and some technical areas. Highly reccomended, just watch for rvers, although they are fewer in the winter.
You won't have any trouble with either Hwy 1 or 101 as far as ice or snow. You could catch some rain in January so be prepared for that.
If for some reason you decided to go up I-5, there is a pass near the small town of Gorman that is a little over 4,000 feet. Occasionally a winter storm will drop snow up there, and the highway will actually be closed, though usually for not more than several hours. Just watch the weather reports.
The California Department of Transportation maintains a website where you can enter highway numbers, ie "1", "101" or "5" and it returns current road conditions including closures:
http://www.dot.ca.gov/cgi-bin/roads.cgi :deal
Best time to ride the PCH is in winter. A lot less traffic and the weather can be beautiful.:D
<?xml:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:office:office" /><o:p> </o:p>
Now you have me thinking, I havent done the Nacimiento-Fergusson loop in a long time. The time is right, just need a break in the weather. We are having stormy weather but it will be wonderful in a few days:deal
PCH in Northern California? Isn't that like calling the City "Frisco"?
January along the coast will be rainy in the high 40s, low 50s during the day. However, sometimes you'll luck out and get some sun for a short stretch of days, where temps can get up into the low 60s. A light dusting of snow can happen once or twice at higher elevations (like the top of Mt. Tam), but is unusual enough to make the news (not just the weather report).
Apparently according to the internet it Twain't him that said it either. But they don't seem to know who might have said it.
I ride along the coast a lot in winter, I can be really nice.
Anyway, rain and damp is likely, ice possible in shady areas of coastal hills (but not right along the ocean) and snow, as someone said, is a news story. But there's usually no fog in winter, so when it's dry it's CLEAR. I rode to Monterey and back a few days ago (a very boring stretch of Hwy 1) ... you could see to the horizon and the ocean was brilliant blue.
-dman (Bay Area native)
This is what Herb Caen (a legendary SF columnist) said:
"Caress each Spanish syllable, salute our Italian Saint. Don't say Frisco and don't say San-Fran-Cis-Co. That's the way Easterners, like Larry King pronounce it. It's more like SanfrnSISco."
And those of us who live here don't generally call it San Francisco; we call it "The City."

(Better yet, watch it with the Peter Bogdanovich commentary track, which incorporates interviews with Lang that Bogdanovich taped in 1966.) Otto Preminger's Advise & Consent (1962) remains one of the most saber-toothed films ever made about American politics, and Mervyn LeRoy's notorious I Am a Fugitive From a Chain Gang (1932), though dated and victimized by Paul Muni, is still shocking for its exposé of institutional slavery and torture. Also packed in is Elia Kazan's A Face in the Crowd (1957), the famous excoriation of media idolatry and political corruption that gave Andy Griffith his lone moment of terrifying satire; the Paddy Chayefsky-penned The Americanization of Emily (1964), which takes merry stabs at WW II-time propagandizing; and Richard Brooks's Blackboard Jungle (1955), a lurid melodrama about city schools that crystallized the Eisenhower era's dread of teendom. Each is available individually, and all come with commentaries and trailers; I Am a Fugitive is also supped by a 1933 comedy short, 20,000 Cheers for the Chain Gang, featuring the Pickens Sisters, and Jungle is garnished by the 1957 Droopy cartoon Blackboard Jumble.

Planegreen-I know that feeling all too well! Keeping my fingers crossed! Why can't fertility be covered? Don't politicians and insurance companies know we can't help it? Infertility is such a painful diagnosis. I remember the first time my doctor said it I went into complete shock. I cried for a week straight. AGH! It kills me. My neighbor is from Sweden and she actually traveled back home to have her IVF because it was free there. Can you imagine??????
Sourire-yay! Sooner is always better than later!
Deb-glad your test went well. I had it done in June. It was interesting.
Thinking of you ladies! :)
Sourire- Such good news!! Can't wait to follow your cycle!
C + B + 10y together, 6y married, 5y TTC endometriosis, Hashimoto's thyroiditis, 4 miscarriages
IVF x3, FET x3 & IVF wPGD FETx1 gave us our miracle twins (and 4 frosties)
Never give up on a dream just because of the time it will take to accomplish it. The time will pass anyway.
Planegreen - Ugh, that is how it was for me. Disappointment is so expensive.
Sourire - Yay!!! November seems like a great time to conceive!
Hi everyone else!
Update: I've been spotting brown and cramping a lot for the last 3 days. If this is going to be over I just want it over. Trying to stay positive but it is really messing with my head. I'm 19dpo.
Married to my love , Mommy to W ('09) and Doula.

Sila - sending myriads of fiercely positive thoughts your way and holding you and the little one in my prayers.
Me + DH + DS ('07) + after a long and bumpy road, thrilled that our twin boys are finally here (DS2 & DS3, '12)
Ack. It looks like the lab screwed up! My AMH results weren't consistent with my other results, so now I have to wait until my next period and retest everything. The positive side to this is that I can now go home for Yom Kippur (Jewish holiday where we atone for our sins and ask forgiveness of others) and we don't have to worry about having a due date close to the one we had with the boys.
Sila, I'm sending you all the sticky vibes I have. Stick, baby, stick!
Deborah, I like your positive attitude on the new news. Enjoy your trip home!
Sourire, yeah! You sound excited about getting started.
AFM, CD30 and no sign of AF yet. I tested yesterday and it was still BFN. Didn't bother testing this morning. Looking forward to the weekend. DH is gone hunting so it's me and the girls at home. Not much planned except a soccer game Saturday morning. I hope you all have a wonderful weekend!
Me - 31, DH - 35, DD#1 11, DD#2 6 MC 2/11 MC 1/12 DS#1 3/14
Well, it looks like my cycles may not be screwed up so badly after all. My period just showed up, making my cycle 26 days long, which is totally normal for me. That means that FF had my ovulation day correct. Maybe my body geared up to ovulate early and then decided to do it on schedule? lol Anyway, I'm feeling a bit relieved.
I have Prometrium and Clomid on order. Prometrium for this cycle, the Clomid of course won't be here in time, so it is for the next cycle (if I need it). I'll take Soy Isoflavones this cycle.
I am so relieved! I was seriously contemplating the end of TTC.
SilaMarila... I hope you've seen the last of the spotting, and that the cramps are your little one digging in for a nice long stay.
Think Fertile Thoughts!!!
43 w/Emphysema - TTC from 2005 - 2013. 2 miscarriages in 2008. Good things do not come to those who wait.
Lindz - I hope you'll be making an announcement soon too! I totally relate to being annoyed with them. It's pretty much the reason I had to get rid of facebook. I hope the tests go well!
planegreen - I'm so sorry about the BFN. Much love to you.
Yes, my RE knows forsure. She was actually really happy about the switch because she has zero experience with the other and ltos with this so she's more comfy with it too. Thanks for making sure. You ladies really are the best!
Sourire - I'll be following yours too! I'm interested to see the difference in protocol. BFPs for us both though, yes?
I'm glad your IVF is sooner than originally thought. Boo to missing the rollercoasters, but as you said, you get to have one of your own!
deborah - I started writing a happy comment, but how frustrating to have to re-test everything next cycle. At least there is a bright side, and you have a great attitude about it. I hope you enjoy your trip!
Sila - Sending good vibes your way! Let's hope this is just normal pregnancy spotting.
AFM, tomorrow I go in for my day 3 base ultrasound/blood work and then on Monday I start BCPs. I have such negative views on BCP after my experience with them so it's hard to be ok with taking them. I know it's for a completely different reason though and there is a purpose. I'm super nervous, but am also excited about getting things going.
Nikki , partner to Jeremy . Baby Joshua Nolan is finally here after a many year struggle with infertility. I blog at www.loliecraft.blogspot.com.
Well....no doctor call yet. The past 4 months I've gotten a phone call that says my thyroid counts are way off the day after testing. Today I waited and waited but nothing! I hope no news is good news!!!
I'm miscarrying.
I'll probably be back around here soon.
Married to my love , Mommy to W ('09) and Doula.
God has answered our prayers & we welcomed our baby girl earth side 11/24/13
Sila- . Everyone else- thanks. I can't say I'm pleased about the changes because I could have avoided an ultrasound the other day when I was sedated if they had known about the lab error. I do always try to look at the bright side, though. Finishing up some work now and then off to Karaoke with the girls! Tomorrow is my martial arts tournament and Sunday I go home. I'm exhausted just thinking about my weekend, but it is a happy exhaustion.
Sila - Fuck. Can we even say that on here? I don't think there is anything else to say. I'm so so sorry. This is not fair. You are in my prayers
Nikki , partner to Jeremy . Baby Joshua Nolan is finally here after a many year struggle with infertility. I blog at www.loliecraft.blogspot.com.

43 w/Emphysema - TTC from 2005 - 2013. 2 miscarriages in 2008. Good things do not come to those who wait.
Sila: I am so sorry. I have been thinking about you all day (well all yesterday since it's currently 4am). ((((love and hugs)))) this is just awful.
Cait and Stevi: Thinking about you guys.
Sourire: I was glad to hear about your last LP with no spotting. Looking forward to your IVF.
Hi Milky-pie.
Hi everyone.
27. Married since December 2006. Trying to conceive #1 since November 2010. 1 loss in April 2011 (5 weeks).
BFP on February 25th. Tentative due date: November 4th, 2012.
It's a girl!
Sila - many hugs for you. I am so sorry for this turn of events.
Crafty Geeky lady (37, hypothyroid) married 7/2010 love of my life (42, azoospermia). I believe in MIRACLES! Twin boys born 12/21/13 at 40 weeks 2 days! 3/52 crafts in 2014 Ramsey's BS1: Done! 2/17/12 BS 2 goal: 6/7/17 no sperm initial DX 3/23/12 BFP 4/7/13!
Sila, Oh God I'm so sorry. Hugs. I know there are no words of comfort. It's just not fair.
I really appreciate all of your support and mutual devastation.
It fucking sucks. Not just for me, for all of us.
I wish I didn't have to be this strong. I wish none of us did.
Married to my love , Mommy to W ('09) and Doula.

So sorry Sila it does suck. Thinking of you.
Sila...so sorry.
& DH, crumb crunchers & 3 babies.
Sila - I'm so sorry to hear your news. Boo! Hugs girl...
AFM - AF has arrived. She's starting off slow which worries me a bit. AND... this morning in the shower my left boob leaked "milk" wtf?? That has not ever happened to me before. Any ideas for me on that one? It was only a few drops but I noticed it. Off-white color of your first milk. Hmmm....
Also, can someone explain rainbow baby to me? Sorry to be ignorant... Thanks!
Me - 31, DH - 35, DD#1 11, DD#2 6 MC 2/11 MC 1/12 DS#1 3/14
Planegreen- A rainbow baby is a baby conceived after loss.
Sila...there are no words. I don't know why life can be so awful. I am so very sorry and keeping you in my thoughts.
Me + DH + DS ('07) + after a long and bumpy road, thrilled that our twin boys are finally here (DS2 & DS3, '12)
Sila, I've been rooting for you all this time, and my heart is breaking for you right now... Thinking of you and holding you in my thoughts.
Sila, still thinking of you.
Just a quick check in for the stalkers, as I have been pretty quiet. Had another scan today, and it was good news. Baby is still kickin' along. Heartbeat was 161 and the growth was almost on track for dates (two days behind). I'm trying to look past that, as it was an abdominal scan. At this rate, I'll just be having weekly scans until I don't need them any more, for whatever reason. It's the only way to manage the anxiety.
I'm still reading updates, but feeling lousy so I'm laying low. Don't know if it's true morning sickness, or just a side effect of the bazillion medications. At any rate, outside of work, I mostly sleep.
Hope to see some good news coming to this thread real soon.
Sila, I'm so sorry. Sigh...fuck...and not fair.
Our little miracles are here!!
DD Born 7/15/11 DS Born 4/3/13
Keep growing healthy and strong, beautiful little fighter babies!!!
Auntie to Nell, Greta, Maggie, and Elsa!
Remembering our 3 losses
Wow, thanks guys. Again, I appreciate your support.
Planegreen - It might be a hormone thing.
Milk - Rooting for you big time.
I'm doing ok.
Married to my love , Mommy to W ('09) and Doula.

Watch Lando Calrissian Sing 'Star Wars' Cantina Karaoke
If there is one thing we love more than girls, it's 'Star Wars.'
If there is one thing we love more than girls, it's 'Star Wars.'
Running in extreme heat is dangerous, but doing it while dressed as Darth Vader is borderline suicidal.
For decades, 'Star Wars' fans were secure in the knowledge that lightsabers came in only three colors: red for evil, green for good and blue for Obi-Wan Kenobi. But then, when the new trilogy of prequels was released between 1999 and 2005, Samuel L. Jackson joined the franchise as Jedi warrior Mace Windu and broke the rules by sporting a purple weapon. So how did it happen?
Are R2D2 bathing suits the hot summer trend of 2013?
Anyone who was on the internet in the years leading up to the first 'Star Wars' prequel is probably getting a strong sense of deja vu right now. There is no bigger movie event on the horizon than 'Star Wars: Episode 7' and so every morsel of detail, every tiny leak and every seemingly insignificant rumor is a cause for alarm/celebration/heated discussion. Today, fans have something new to chew on yet: a casting breakdown that describes some of the film's new characters. And this is the real deal.
When George Lucas handed the reins of 'Star Wars' over to Disney, it was understood that the man behind the most popular science fiction universe of all time would only be involved in 'Star Wars: Episode 7' in a limited capacity. However, we didn't realize just how limited it was! Lucas recently spoke out about his involvement in 'Star Wars: Episode 7' and revealed that he hasn't spoken to director J.J. Abrams. Like, at all.
Director J.J. Abrams hasn't shot a single roll of film, and 'Star Wars: Episode 7' has already sparked more rumors than we can count. But this one might actually be something worth paying attention to.
Even Wookiees, it seems, aren't immune to a shakedown by the Transportation Security Administration. On June 3, Peter Mayhew, the actor who played Han Solo's furry sidekick Chewbacca in the 'Star Wars' movies, was stopped by TSA agents after attempting to board a plane in Denver with a large cane shaped light a lightsaber.
Many 'Star Trek' fans felt personally betrayed when director J.J. Abrams ditched the series and jumped ship to 'Star Wars Episode 7.' After all, the two iconic science fiction franchises have been embroiled in a silly war among fans for decades now -- either you're in one camp or the other, it seems. But how would Trekkies feel if Mr. Spock himself, Leonard Nimoy, took a journey to the 'Star Wars' universe?
The Fresno Grizzlies turned to the "dark side" on Saturday night. The San Francisco Giants Triple-A affiliate wore jerseysdesigned to resemble the helmets of Imperial stormtroopers from the Star Wars saga films during the
Let's grab a giant platter of sushi news and bite down on the best pieces of content to hit the web on May 22nd, 2013. What a Wednesday!
Just when you thought comedian Patton Oswalt's viral hit rant from 'Parks and Recreation' couldn't get any better, along comes an animated version of quite possibly the greatest movie pitch of all time.
Last month, the comic made a hysterical appearance on

Many Thanks Ian, it's a joy to hear from you, I've missed your images these last four months or so, hope we'll all see you again soon my friend.
Wow, not a breath of wind about by the looks - you have some remarkable reflection images Dougie and this is up there with them... fabulous image with glorious colours and composition.

The mountains can make the difference.
Your blues are a little too blue for my taste Doug but nethertheless a fine image from this wee loch.
Wonderful capture...Love the relaxed,restful mood & amzing details all around.Thank you for sharing my friend.

Noted New York-based violinist Paul Peabody, synonymous with epoch-making American film Titanic, is all set to regale music lovers with a live concert for a noble cause at FICCI Auditorium in New Delhi this Sunday.
HelpAge India and Help Me See have joined hands to embark on the mission of collecting funds from music connoisseurs. This will enable a number of visually impaired persons get their vision restored.
Paul, whose rendition of the score for Titanic was recognised by the Academy of Recording Arts and Science, has confirmed that he will play the theme song of James Cameron's film in the fund-raising event.
"It will to be a thrilling experience to be performing in Delhi for the second time. The first time was before the Commonwealth Games at Deepalaya. This concert is my way of helping the visually impaired see. The cause is close to my heart and I want to pass on the message that even a small contribution from Delhiites can make a huge difference in the life of poor people who cannot afford its cure. Restoring sight is like giving someone a whole new world of colour, life and most of all hope."
For nearly three years now, Paul has been travelling intermittently to various Indian cities and observing how visually impaired persons are being looked after.
"It is good to monitor the work being done for the visually impaired. It is great to observe that buildings housing the visually impaired persons have improved. There is progress everywhere. I have performed at Agra, Varanasi and will soon be travelling to Chitrakoot where I will play devotional music. A school has been set up for 1,400 visually impaired children there."
As a violinist, Paul has played for the late pop sensation Michael Jackson, Madonna and given music for over 90 movies including the soundtrack album for Disney flicks and Coen Brothers' Fargo. He is however best known for being a part of the Grammy winning orchestra that played for the movie Titanic.
Doing jugalbandi with Paul will be Indian instrumentalists Sunil Kant Saxena on sitar, Raghuraman on flute, Nawab Ali at the tabla and Kannan with ghatam. Paul will also perform with young students of Ryan International School, Rohini.
A short pantomime act will be performed by Jagran to create awareness about those who need cataract surgeries.
According to HelpAge India joint director-communications Sonali Sharma, the entry is free but the organisers will beseech the public to show large-heartedness and chip in funds for poor cataract patients. Pointing out that there are 12 million visually impaired persons in the country, HelpAge India chief executive Mathew Cherian said 62.6 per cent of them are visually impaired due to cataract. Through this concert HelpAge India and Help Me See hope to raise awareness and, in turn, funds to help the blind see.
"It takes one just Rs. 1,000 to help a cataract patient. Each year we conduct thousands of cataract surgeries restoring vision of needy senior citizens free of cost. In some case we restore livelihoods."

Yuko's dad is a really good cook! Sometimes you just gotta combine those leftovers to clear out the fridge.
Hey guys and gals! First of all, Happy New Year! Hope your holidays were just lovely.
I'd mentioned this before, but I can mention it "officially": We're having a release party for Vol. 2, graciously hosted by Bergen St. Comics in Brooklyn! We've got a few things planned:
Rook and Cricket came with us to Yuko's parents' place, which means they serenaded us with a chorus of miserable meows. I think Cricket was mostly imitating Rook ... but Rook hates cars. Not a car cat, that one.
In case you missed it. The cats came with us for Christmas! They're getting along with Mika and Gonta. Uh, mostly.
I'm working on a new project, so I've been reading a lot of science fiction short stories recently and got particularly interested in Arthur C. Clarke. His name was always on my radar, but I seem to have an on again off again relationship with sci-fi, so sometimes it takes me a little while. Anyway, here are some short stories you can read online:
Krampus is a creature with roots in Germanic folklore, and is essentially the bad cop to St. Nicholas's good cop. St. Nicholas hands gifts out to the good kids, and Krampus warns and punishes bad kids - and if a kid is particularly naughty, he'll throw him or her into his sack and carry them off to his lair to eat. Krampus has appeared on cards in the Alpine regions of Europe since the 1800s - in older depictions he is more fearsome and scary, while in newer versions he is generally cuter. You can read more about Krampus at Wikipedia.
A familiar story ... ! Alas.
Hey all! Gotta keep this quick: Just a heads up, Wednesday the 21st (tomorrow) is the last day to order! Please have your order in by tomorrow 12 noon EST. After that we'll be shipping orders in the New Year.
That's all for us! See you Thursday!
Mandelbrot sets! In case you were curious and wanted to know more.
Here's the holiday rundown of stuff in the store!
Hey guys! Phoenix Down tees, CMYcat tees, and CMYcat totes are now in the store! That's the last of the items we're adding for Christmas. Johnny Wander Vol. 2 is still in the store, as well as a discount book pack.
Pretty sure that 'dog' escaped from the zoo! Don't tell anyone, he looked happy. Check it out, the books are here:

Muslims observe a month of reflection
Ramadan's holy days are marked by fasting, prayer, giving up bad habits
Another benefit, he said, is that such self-restraint builds confidence and character.
"If you have to wake up at 4:30 for breakfast, instead of 7, you've changed your routine," Mezgouri said. "If you do that for a month, it's a great accomplishment. This is how you get rid of bad habits."
Of course, Mezgouri said, he will not push his son if the boy is feeling weak or very hungry.
The same is true for Osama's young peers at the Islamic School of San Diego, which is housed in the Islamic Center.
Principal Sharifa Abukar estimates about half the 155 children attending the private school will observe Ramadan. Once classes start later this month, teachers will modify instruction and activities to help students get the most out of the holy month.
For example, instead of running on an outdoor track for P.E., students may walk on hot days, or practice aerobics indoors. And teachers will not assign homework during Ramadan, so students have extra time to read the Qur'an and attend special nightly prayers at the mosque.
"Ramadan is such a community event," Abukar said. "When young people want to take part, we encourage them. But we also want to protect them, and make sure they're not doing something they're not ready for."

On Saturday, Thunder Jet staff and supporters celebrated the
addition of the McKenzie Marine and Mackraft-built Thunder
Jet 3 to the company's fleet at the Steamer Wharf.
The boat was blessed by Waihopai Runanga Upoko Michael
Skerrett before its first trip down the Kawarau River, a free
ride for supporters and agents.
Thunder Jet director Neville Kelly said the 820-horsepower
boat came equipped with the latest technology, including a
marine sound system - enabling passengers to listen to music
while blasting along the river - self-draining decks, a
custom-designed driver's seat, a digital Murphy system dash

Paris, France
My Rating
It was a very good experience since it was not only about a line-free entrance, but about getting to know more of the Eiffel Tower. Our guide (Paul, I think) was very well informed and kept us interested at all times.
Great way to experience it.

Red Bull's appeal against the exclusion of Daniel Ricciardo from the Australian GP is based on the team believing that the rules do not specify that fuel flow has to be measured by the FIA-mandated sensor.
Team boss Christian Horner says that the team's own readings proved that Ricciardo did not exceed the 100kg/h limit, which is why the team ignored instructions from the FIA to adjust the flow.
"We are appealing on the grounds that we do not believe, we are extremely confident, that we have not broken the rules," Horner told Sky Sports News. "And that we haven't exceeded the 100kg/h of fuel that is permitted to be utilized by the car and the engine.
"So that was the reason for our appeal, we feel we have a strong case and it will be down to the appeal court to ultimately decide.
"We have a sensor that is drifting and isn't reading correctly versus a fuel rail that we know is calibrated and we know that hasn't varied throughout the weekend and has subsequently been checked and found to be not faulty and hasn't moved or varied at all since it was installed on the car prior to the weekend.
"Our argument is very simple, that we haven't broken the Technical Regulations. That we haven't exceeded the fuel flow limit and that the sensor, which hopefully we will be able to demonstrate in the appeal, is erroneous."
Horner says simply that the rules don't actually specify that the fuel measurement has to be made by the FIA sensor, despite the years of work that have gone into developing the device and teams being fully aware of its role.
"We are bound by the Technical and Sporting Regulations. 5.1.4 of the Technical Regulations says you must not exceed 100kg/h of fuel usage. We haven't done that. Therefore our view is we haven't broken the regulations and Technical Directives are of non-regulatory value."Christian Horner, Daniel Ricciardo, Formula 1, Red Bull Racing

Indiana women's softball coach Diane Stephenson announced today the hiring of Jen McIntyre as assistant coach. McIntyre takes over the position from Julie Moss who is now the head coach at San Francisco State.
McIntyre, a native of Richmond, VA, spent the last year as an Intern in the Sports Marketing and Promotions office at Penn State University. Prior to that, she earned her undergraduate degree in Kinesiology while playing 3rd base for the Nittany Lions all four years. As a player, she earned GTE Academic All-American honors her senior year and led Penn State in hitting during her junior year.
McIntyre will be pursuing her masters degree in Sport Management while conducting her coaching duties with the Hoosiers.

"We're very excited to have Jen," said Diane Stephenson. "We
are definitely excited to have a young person come back to our program.
Julie Moss came to us as a student athlete right out of college and turned
into a really fine head coach. We hope to develop Jen in the same way.
She brings a lot of energy and she's really looking forward to being a
part of the Hoosier staff."

Lofou Agrovino: "The Real Authentic Cypriot Hospitality!"
I spent two nights at Agrovino studios. My studio was number 3 and it was amazing, cozy and comfortable. The en-suite facilities were of a high standard.
My studio had a washing machine and a big fridge. It was fully equipped for self catering, but I had no intention to cook inside. In my private courtyard there were two studios but I was just on my own the days of my stay. The studio had the traditional Cypriot décor with a comfortable bed, a sitting room and kitchen all in one.
The walls were all made of stone, and the colours of the whole interior décor were natural and so warm.
Costa the owner has the tarvern of the village which is usually closed on Mondays, but he always opens at night if he has guests in his studios. There was no other tavern open for lunch and I did not find even a bakery to buy something during the day. It was a bit difficult for me, but in the evening the tavern was open for the people staying in the studios so it was fine as there was a variety of dishes to choose from, all tasty and fresh. Costa told me that the products are mainly from the family's garden.
There is no internet access in the studios, but there is the Agrovino Coffee shop where people who need internet access can go there instead. I was disappointed though because it was a Monday and this was closed as well.
The owner Mr. Costa Violaris is an excellent host and a very good cook himself. I saw a certificate on the wall from the Cyprus Tourism Organization for his excellent Cypriot cuisine valid till the 20th November 2008. It is a family run business and I strongly recommend a visit to Agrovino hotel to people who want to get a taste of the real Cypriot culture.

Tablet. Hotels for Global Nomads
Travel Better.
6526 Yount Street, Yountville, CA, USA
Check availability as rates may vary for dates. Best rate guaranteed.
A decade or two ago, Napa Valley was the place to go for a little slice of Renaissance Tuscany. It made sense at the time, with the California wine industry really hitting its stride, for the architecture to aspire toward a classic European sort of gravity. These days, however, Napa is ground zero for a new green building movement, and its hotels are leading the way — no doubt something greener will come along, but at the time of its opening, Bardessono was pretty much as sustainable as it gets.
The construction, which looks like sandstone or blond concrete, is actually rammed earth — for several slightly boring reasons it's greener than all the alternatives, and anyway it lends a distinctive look. You'll see a lot of wood as well — when sourced properly it's the other green building material, and most of it is reclaimed or recycled. And it's not just the building that's green, but the operation — great unglamorous pains are taken to reduce paper or water waste, to automatically shade the rooms from the midday sun, that sort of thing.
At the same time, Bardessono is pretty close to the state of the art in luxury, and all the concern about sustainability doesn't change that. The suites are essentially high-end luxury apartments, complete with gas fireplaces and lavish living spaces, and the bathrooms are designed to function as private spas — literally, as in, that's where the therapist takes you when it's time for your in-room treatment.
Add a massive wine collection (some from the on-site organic vineyard) and an upscale contemporary Californian restaurant (serving produce from the hotel's own farm) and you've got a pretty complete package, quintessentially Napa. With several restaurants by Thomas Keller, among others, Yountville isn't just a wine country destination, but arguably one of the capitals of the US culinary world as well.
How to get there:
Bardessono is approximately a 1 1/2 hour drive from San Francisco International Airport and a 1 hour drive from both Oakland International Airport (OAK) and Sacramento International Airport (SMF).
