Top 10 Family things to do on Royal Caribbean's Quantum-class shipsIn:
Join us in welcoming back Don from EatSleepCruise! He's treating us to his list of the best activities for families on Royal Caribbean's Quantum-class cruse ships!
There is so much to do and see onboard Royal Caribbean's newest ship, Anthem of the Seas, that it is an ideal vacation for families. Whether your family is the outgoing type, or likes to vacation in a relaxed, casual style, Quantum class ships offer a great mix of amenities and public spaces to please everyone from 2 to 92!
If you vacation like us, we know you want to make the most of every minute. But, no matter how many days you are onboard a Quantum class ship, it seems like there is never enough time to get everything done. But, don't stress. We have outlined the top 10 family activities for your next Anthem of the Seas trip to ensure you have the perfect family vacation.
Soar to New Heights – Quantum class ships offer some amazing "firsts" at seas, among them are Ripcord by iFLY, a skydiving simulator, and North Star, an aerial gondola that takes you 300 feet above sea level. Both are must-do activities for families. While North Star is first come, first serve, you can make iFLY reservations in advance of your trip on the Cruise Planner!
Have Some Four Wheeled Fun- The kids are in for a real treat on Anthem of the Seas as they can experience the first ever roller skating rink at sea. Some roller skating events have themes, like 70s disco night or 90s pop night, so check the cruise compass to find a time that will entertain all members of the family. Then, gear up for a rock and rolling good time! And, yes mom and dad you also have to get out on the rink!
Throw your Own Personal Pizza Party – Most cruise ships have the same boring pizza selections: cheese, pepperoni, and that unidentifiable specialty pizza. However, Sorrento's Pizza shop on Quantum class ships allows cruisers to make a fresh, custom pie by selecting from a wide array of toppings. So, while everyone else is at dinner, head to Sorrento's with the kids, and let them be in charge of the menu one night.
Go Head First into Oncoming Traffic – At the multi-use SeaPlex on Anthem of the Seas, there is so much you can do! On several days of your cruise, this venue offers select times for you and your loved ones to let out a little aggression, safely, with some bumper cars. Don't be fooled by the location, these cars are armed for a mighty good collision. Check the compass for times and restrictions as little ones do need to ride with a parent.
Plan a DIY Scavenger Hunt – There are so many beautiful paintings, digital photographs, and sculptures onboard that Quantum class ships are like floating museums-don't tell your kids that. So, you can create your own fun by hunting down some of these "rare artifacts" Indiana Jones style. See who can find the most pieces of art in a pre-determined time frame. Hint: the elevators are a great place to start.
Sing Your Lungs Out – A cruise ship staple for young and old alike is karaoke. Happening at different times throughout your Anthem cruise, there are scheduled family karaoke sessions. So, why not get the whole family together for a sing-a-long? Who cares if your 13 year old daughter is embarrassed! Grab her hand and head up to the stage to "Shake it Off" along with Taylor Swift.
Make a Memory – One of the untapped gems of Quantum class ships is The Workshop, a secluded space located in the upper level of Two70. With a variety of complimentary classes available, family members can work with cruise staff to create personalized scrapbooks for all those vacation memories. Even if you have never made one before, there is no better time than the present to start a new tradition. No previous experience is necessary; all you need to bring is your imagination and your DIY skills! And the kids get to play with glue sticks!
Pose with Shrek – Not only Shrek, but many members of the Dreamworks family are onboard, and they want to meet you and the kids. During most sea days, there are scheduled "meet and greet" times to take pictures with all of your favorites, from Princess Fiona and Shrek, to Gloria and Alex from Madagascar, to the cast of How to Train Your Dragon. So, grab your camera and make sure to bring your smiles! Most of these "meet and greets" do allow you to use your own camera for pictures, whereas some of them are for professional portraits only, so check the compass for details.
Stay in Shape – There are so many organized and unorganized fitness related opportunities onboard Anthem of the Seas that there is no excuse for not staying active during your cruise. Perhaps, just a walk around the sports deck every afternoon for some old fashioned "family time". Or, you may want to up the ante by challenging your kids to a rock climbing race, or even a boogie board showdown on the surf simulator known as the Flowider. Remember, it will help work off some of those extra calories too!
Make it a Family Movie Night – I know, the last thing you might be thinking on your Caribbean cruise is that you want to sit indoors for 2 hours to watch a movie. Well, lucky for you, Anthem has extra-large outdoor movie screens located on the pool deck, playing family friendly movies. Depending on the length of your cruise, there will probably be two or three different movies playing in rotation. With showings during the early evening, it might be the best time to snuggle up on a deck chair with your personal crew.
Now, all you need to do is book that vacation and get ready for some family fun. If you need some help arranging your Quantum class cruise, our exclusive planning guide might best place to start!
Royal Caribbean gives all past Quantum of the Seas guests $100 onboard credit as a gesture of good willIn:
Royal Caribbean CEO Michael Bayley sent an email to all past guests that have sailed on Royal Caribbean's Quantum of the Seas with an offer of $100 onboard credit towards a future cruise on Anthem of the Seas.
Bayley's email was sent in response to the negative feedback surrounding Dynamic Dining on Quantum of the Seas in the ship's first few months. Since that time, Royal Caribbean has worked to refine Dynamic Dining and the general Quantum-class experience.
Here is the content of the email to past passengers:
Thank you for being one of the first to sail onboard Quantum of the Seas. As the newest ship in our fleet, Quantum introduced many new concepts—which, I'm sure, is part of the reason you wanted to be among the first to experience it all. I know that things were not perfect, especially in the first few months of the inaugural season as we worked to refine the experience we set out to deliver. We listened to your feedback and it was clear we had some room to improve, especially with Dynamic Dining.
Many of you liked the flexibility of Dynamic Dining, but encountered issues with making reservations. Others simply wanted the more traditional dining experience to which they were accustomed on other ships. I assure you that we learn more with every sailing and with every comment we receive, and I'm pleased to announce that we've come up with a way to satisfy diners in either camp. Now, our more traditional diners can choose Dynamic Dining Classic, a new option that gives you the familiarity of traditional main dining by having the same dining times nightly, same waiters and same table companions throughout the cruise. And those of you who liked Dynamic Dining can enjoy even more flexibility and improved service throughout the experience, with Dynamic Dining Choice. We've already received a lot of positive feedback about these new options, and I can't wait to hear how you like it once you experience it for yourself.
As a gesture of goodwill and a thank you for your loyalty to Royal Caribbean, I invite you to come back and try the new and improved Dynamic Dining on our newest ship, Anthem of the Seas, and enjoy a gift of $100 in onboard credit per stateroom when you secure your booking in May.
Again, thank you for being our guest. We hope to welcome you aboard soon.
Cruise must be booked April 13 - May 31, 2015. Offer applies to all Anthem of the Seas sailings. Offer includes $100 OBC and applies to all stateroom categories. Promo Code ANTHEM must be entered to receive onboard credit.
Quantum of the Seas night photosIn:
When the sun goes down, Royal Caribbean's cruise ships seem to come alive with beautiful colors, reflections and lighting.
Here are some of our favorite photos from a recent cruise aboard Quantum of the Seas. Most of these photos were taken on the top decks of the ship, and there are also photos of Quantum of the Seas at night while docked in San Juan, Puerto Rico. Enjoy!

So which Royal Caribbean ship is your favorite at night? Do the newer ship classes look best at night or the smaller ships have a certain je ne sais quoi about them after the sun goes down? Share your thoughts in the comments!
Photo tour of Category L Large Interior Stateroom with Virtual BalconyIn:
Royal Caribbean's Quantum of the Seas has a lot to offer, including a number of staterooms. Today, we will look at the category L inside stateroom and take you through the cabin to give you an idea of what to expect if you book this category.
Inside staterooms on Quantum of the Seas feature what's known as a virtual balcony. Virtual balconies are inside staterooms with an 80-inch LED screen that serve up ultra high definition views from floor to ceiling that make it look like you have a real balcony view but without the real balcony price.
On Quantum of the Seas, we reviewed stateroom 12231, which is located on Deck 12 just outside the aft elevator bank. Entry to the room is by RFID scanner, which is above the door handle.
Walking into the stateroom, it's hard to miss the focal point of the room, which is the virtual balcony. The virtual balcony serves up views from various vantage points around the ship, depending on where the ship is. When in port, you will get a view of the port but at sea, the view will change usually to the aft.
The bed is joined together but can be split apart if need be. The virtual balcony can be turned on or off via a remote, although there are curtains provided if you would like to have the morning light come into your stateroom.
There is a large, flat screen television across from the bed, as well as a dresser below the television that has drawers for clothing and is also home to your mini-fridge. Adjacent to the television and dresser is a desk with large mirror and power connectivity options. You will also find along this wall one of the two large chairs.
On the other side of the room, there is a full-length mirror as well as your second large chair. On both sides of the bed are bureaus and more storage options. The safe is also located in one of the large dressers.
The bathroom features a stand up shower, sink and toilet. Guests will find small bottles of shampoo, lotion, body wash and conditioner for use in the bathroom. Your stateroom attendant will replenish your supply when necessary.
At 178 square feet, the category L inside stateroom offers the most room of the inside stateroom category. It's quite comfortable for two passengers and perhaps a third passenger (preferably a child) could make the space work. Anything more would be too tight a fit for comfort in our opinion.
For a solo cruiser or couple that wants to take advantage of the great inside stateroom pricing but wants a little more space, the Category L stateroom will be a perfect choice.
Restaurant Review: Jamie's Italian on Quantum of the SeasIn:
One of the stand out restaurants that are available on Royal Caribbean's Quantum of the Seas has to be Jamie's Italian. This simple yet tasty take on Italian food by British celebrity chef Jamie Oliver brings a whole different Italian restaurant experience to Royal Caribbean.
We're excited to share with you what Jamie's Italian offers and if you should give it a try on your cruise as well.
Jamie's Italian is located in the Via section of the Royal Esplanade, close to Two70. As you walk towards the restaurant, you will find an open air eatery that reminds you of a city sidewalk restaurant.
Once inside Jamie's Italian, you will find a restaurant that is simple in its look. There's no traditional red and white checkerboard, Lady and the Tramp style tables either. There's also not a hint of the formal look you may find in other Royal Caribbean specialty restaurants like Chops Grille or Portofino.
The tables and chairs are an assortment of different styles that almost look like the host called all of their friends to bring tables and chairs because the host did not have enough. I'm not celebrity chef expert, but I do know that Jamie Oliver, the restaurant's namesake, purposefully makes his restaurants and food simple.
After a few minutes looking around, Jamie's Italian feels like you're eating in someone's (very large) kitchen. Tables are located all around the restaurant and the waiters are wearing simple white shirts with jeans. There are also televisions on the walls showing Jamie Oliver cooking his food and there's an eclectic mix of popular music that we are told Jamie himself listens to.
Sitting down, you will find the restaurant feels very different than most other specialty restaurants. If not for Wonderland, Jamie's Italian would certainly be the most unconventional specialty restaurant I've ever dined at on a Royal Caribbean ship.
The food at Jamie's Italian is quite obviously Italian but like the decor, it's not just spaghetti, pizza and other traditional fare.
One of the neat things Jamie's Italian does is it makes all of its pasta by hand, each day. When our waiter told us that, I immediately reconsidered what I was going to order because hand-made pasta makes a big difference compared to the boxed stuff.
When you walk into the restaurant, you will likely see many other tables enjoying food served off of a giant wooden plank and there's a good reason for it. Citing the famous cliche, when in Rome, do as the Romans do, we also ordered the plank. There are two to choose from: cured meats and seasonal vegetables.
Regardless of which plank you order, the waiter will ask you how many people will be enjoying the plank. We told him two people and we wanted the cured meats plank. Soon thereafter, he came out with a generous sampling of meats and cheeses. There's fennel salami, pistachio mortadella, prosciutto & schiacciata picante. If antipasti is your thing, this will be heaven for you.
I also sampled the arincini margherita, which are tomato & mozzarella risotto rice balls with arrabbiata sauce & Parmesan. Of all the appetizers I sampled, this was my favorite. I loved the texture and the sauce it was served on top of had a bit of kick to it.
My table mates really liked the mushroom flatbread, which was definitely not pizza. A mixture of fresh mushrooms and sprinkled cheese on top of a thin breading made for a great choice. We realized about now that the appetizers alone were really, really good.
The crispy squid was exactly as the name implies. My friend was the squid fan and reported it was quite good and definitely not chewy.
Perhaps the only disappointment of the meal was the Tuscan bean & single estate Italian olive oil bruschetta. Ordinarilly, I love bruschetta but this was quite different than any bruschetta I've ever had. It was cheesy (and not in a good way) and after one bite each, we all went back to our favorites.
A quick side note, I noticed on other tables in the restaurant there were View Finders and asked our waiter why we did not get one. He informed me it was for children to see what the food they are going to order looks like. I kindly requested I too get a chance to see our food in faux 3D, 1980's glory and I recommend asking for one too just for the fun of it!
Moving onto the entrees, once I figured out what aubergine meant (it's another name for eggplant), I ordered the aubergine parmigana. It's essentially a stack of baked eggplant slices in a warm pool of tomato sauce topped with cheese.
Eggplant parmigana is an Italian food classic and I enjoyed it quite a bit. Was it better than the eggplant parm from Giovanni's Table? I'm not ready to go that far.
It is worth noting the freshly baked twisted garlic bread is really, really good and I recommend ordering an entire order of these just for your table to enjoy (or hoard them for yourself while giggling how good they are).
Earlier I had honed in on the fact their pasta was hand-made, so I ordered the penne pomodoro. To most people, this is penne in a red sauce but again, the fresh pasta makes even a simple dish like this stand out.
The baked lasagna was a real treat as well, with the blend of fresh pasta (notice a trend yet?), mozzarella and Parmesan cheeses and beef and pork.
I'm no connoisseur of lamb but the lamb chops were also quite good.
By now, we had been through a food war but our waiter insisted we try the desert. Who am I to argue with a man in jeans?
There's a number of intriguing selections on the dessert menu but the one that caught my eye was the epic homemade brownie. I mean, who can resist that kind of a title?
I can report that there is no case of false advertising here. The epic homemade brownie was terrific. What makes it epic? There's a freshly baked warm fudgy brownie with vanilla ice cream and caramelized amartetti popcorn on top. Yup, epic.
We had eaten at Jamie's Italian towards the end of my cruise and all throughout the voyage, other passengers had always mentioned how good Jamie's Italian was whenever the topic of dinners came up and now I know why.
Jamie's Italian offers a great selection of Italian food that differentiates itself from most other food available on Quantum of the Seas. It's an interesting "reboot" of what we think about when it comes to Italian food.
Nearly everything we offered was very good. In fact, I think of all the restaurants onboard Quantum of the Seas, Jamie's Italian had the best ratio of hits to misses, in terms of good food to bad food picks.
I was lucky to have dined with a group of friends because the food here is perfect for sharing and it gives everyone a chance to sample a little of everything.
Like most Royal Caribbean restaurants, I found the portion sizes to be on the small size, which makes ordering multiple entrees (and appetizers earlier) an easier decision.


text: I read about Elkins Ranch and River Breaks Ranch hosting authentic chuck-wagon dinners. Neither website gives operating hours or costs. Both websites leave much to be desired! I also read in reviews that Elkins Ranch no longer offers breakfast, which is fine because I was looking for dinner anyway. The River Breaks Ranch video looks promising; I like the idea of riding in a covered wagon rather than a jeep. Does anyone have recent experiences with either place? Any input as to hours and cost? Are there sources of information that I've overlooked? Thanks--planning July 1 trip.

As I sit down to write up this menu, I am still full from the Sunday birthday brunch I just came from for my almost 9 year old niece. My sister in law did got raves for her egg casserole and pecan streusel french toast shuffle, which she noted are her faves because she can prep the the night before. They were delicious, but after hearing about them, I have to note they were not the healthiest.

Party Platters In 20 Minutes Or Less
Contributed by: Shifra Klein

Last year I judged a food competition at the Nachum Segal Network. We had a blast and it was a fun, food-oriented competition among the talented staff at the network. The competition was close. The winner of the Chopped-style competition beat his competitors simply because of ONE unique item he produced: he made the most incredible pickled shallots. It was that one component on his plate that put him in the lead. This reflects a secret of many chefs and party planners. You don't need to spend lengthy amounts of time making every component. Use fresh, store-bought ingredients and focus your energy on that ONE amazing component and you will have immediate success and awesome feedback from your guests.
Make Your House Smell Amazing With A Healthy Treat

On many a cold winter New York mornings I would drop my then 2-year old son off at his play group to the smell of hot, homemade granola. It was intoxicating. Sweet and syrupy the power of suggestion was enough to make me demand that his teacher let me taste, just a little, for research purposes of course. Teacher Rivky as she was known ran the play group out of her home and was all too happy to cater to my "research". She was such a giving person and always sent me on my way with a granola care package big enough to feed me and the growing baby in my belly.
I love the simplicity of the recipe and the fact that almost any substitution works. Instead of raisins use dried cherries, cranberries or blueberries. Instead of almonds try walnuts, pecans or peanuts. If you have the palate of a pregnant woman you can just add all of the above. Warning – don't burn that precious palate of yours – wait at least 15 minutes for your granola to cool before taste testing, for research purposes of course.
DIY – Homemade Bubbly Cocktails
Contributed by: Elise Meyer
This time of year sparkling wine and champagne are in high demand. We love to toast with champagne and we love to mix it up too. Light and fruity wine cocktails are the perfect complement to any celebration. When you have some bubbles, a bit of spice, and some succulent fruit, you can't go wrong.

New Year's Resolutions – Health and...

In the year 5774, just about every holiday table features someone on a special diet. Whether it's gluten free, lactose free, paleo, clean, vegan, vegetarian, and of course the new year's resolution diet. Unfortunately, it's often the word die that gets the emphasis when you cook following the diet's guidelines. It doesn't have to be that way, especially with all the family, food and festivities on Rosh Hashanah.
This salad that eats like a meal is coming to the rescue. It's easy to make, healthy, satisfying, filled with nutrients, and diet friendly, whichever diet that might be.
Days of Kosher (Sparkling) Wine
9 comments | Leave Comment
Should old acquaintances be forgot and never brought to mind? Not if that old acquaintance is kosher champagne. This time of year we have many opportunities to raise a glass and celebrate, whether at the office holiday party or ushering in the New Year or avoiding the fiscal cliff. While a rich red may keep you warm by the fire at night, an errant drop can ruin a party dress faster than you can say stain stick. So stick to Champagne or sparkling wine, it's affordable, light, festive and remarkably drinkable most anytime. Here are a few of our seasonal favorites:
Drappier Carte Blanche Brut (France); $45. Fine, fresh, elegant and fruity with apple, yeast and floral notes – a true French Champagne from a prestigious domaine.
New Year's Day 2012 – Brunch Ideas
January 1st falls on a Sunday this year, so now you have two reasons to sleep late and celebrate with a bountiful New Year's Day brunch. Tell your closest friends and family to come on over, because you are going to start 2012 off right — with a full stomach and an empty plate.
See how easy it is to kick things up a notch in the New Year with our very best brunch menu…
New Year's Eve Party Ideas
For New Year's Eve, I am taking inspiration from the small plates (tapas, mezze, and more) that appear on restaurant menus all over the world. Small plates encourage experimentation in the kitchen and are perfect for sampling and sharing. Remember how the New Year's Eve television special shows you celebrations all around the globe? As 2011 draws to a close, invite your friends over for a glass or two of kosher champagne and ask each friend to bring over 2-3 small dishes from a particular country. You can have your own international extravaganza without leaving your living room. Here are a few ideas to get you started, click on the cuisine of your choice for a menu:

Bully Ray deal with TNA
To clear up all the speculation surrounding his return to TNA, Bully Ray took to the air to reveal that his appearance on Impact Wrestling was a one time thing. He stated that the front office called and told him that they needed a special guest referee for a world heavyweight championship match. Since he thought it would be fun, Bully opted to sign on for the episode. He stated that he and Devon still enjoy having independent status.

Bully Ray in WWE
When asked about what he would like to do if WWE were to offer him a permanent contract to return, Bully Ray was a bit more lenient than before. In the past, he stated that he only wanted to do a singles run. However, he recently mentioned that he would have no problems reforming his tag team with Devon. The belief is that he is trying to show management that he can be a team player, so that the company will offer him a contract.

Crash course: Nervous system Three Functions 1. Sensory input: signals conducted from sensory cells in body (heat, touch, hearing, balance, vision, smell, taste, etc.) 2. Integration: information interpreted and processed (in brain and spinal cord). 3. Motor output: signals carried to muscles and glands. Two Parts Central nervous system – processes information; brain and spinal cord; covered by protective meninges layers and bathed in cerebrospinal fluid. Spinal cord incased in vertebral column; simple stimuli and responses (reflexes); carries info to brain. Human brain divided into forebrain, midbrain, and hindbrain. Brain Structure Forebrain: cerebrum right and left hemispheres (center of intelligence) connected by corpus callosum; thalamus (relay station); hypothalamus (regulates heart rate, bp, temp, and pituitary hormones). Hindbrain: medulla (controls heart and breathing); cerebellum (balance and coordination); pons (connects cerebellum to cerebrum). Nervous system cells 1. Neurons – nerve cells made up of dendrites (receive signals), cell body (contains organelles), and axons (carries signals away from cell body). a. Sensory neurons gather sensory info. b. Motor neurons carry out action signals. c. Interneurons integrate input and output. Synapses "connect" neurons by electrical or chemical means (neurotransmitters). Nervous system cells cont. 2. Supporting cells -- help neurons function; 10-50 times more than neurons. a. Glial cells found in CNS; form blood-brain barrier and myelin sheath. b. Schwann cells found in PNS; form myelin sheath. Nerve Impulse Nerve impulses are electrical signals. Depends on flow of electrons across the neuron's cell membrane. Neuron at rest has higher numbers of Na+ outside, higher number of K+ inside, and high numbers of Cl- outside. Membrane potential is about –70 mV. Sodium-potassium pump keeps ions in these concentrations so neuron can be ready to fire. Nerve impulse cont. Electrical stimulus at the dendrites causes a shift in the ion balance as Na+ enters the cell (depolarization). When membrane potential rises +15-20 mV, the action potential is triggered. Na+ continues into the cell and K+ exits the cell as protein channels open (more depolarization); total +100 mV change. Action potential moves like a wave down the axon to the end of the cell. Membrane proteins will then reset the Na+/K+ balance.

The Martin County Board learned this week that the county has been denied a federal grant needed to complete mandatory emergency communication upgrades by the end of the year. The FEMA grant would have covered several of the 800-megahertz "ARMER" portable radios to be used by Fairmont Fire Department rescue units and ambulance services. The move to the narrowband radios must be completed by all law enforcement and rescue agencies by January 1st of 2013. The majority of counties in the local area have been approved for the FEMA grants, although McLeod and Sibley have also been denied. Martin County Commissioners plan on sending letters to state and federal lawmakers asking for funding for the mandatory equipment.

"I ordered these at the last minute for my son's christening. I paid a little extra for shipping, but they came right on time. I opted for straight edges and they were perfect! I am very impressed with the quality and look/feel of the invites. They far exceeded my expectations and I am definitely ordering from Tiny Prints again!"
"I ordered these invitations for my twin sons' baptism. I was very happy with the quality of the paper, the design, the font used. I did not make any changes to the sample online, only personalized it with our information. Everyone who received the invitation commented how pretty it is. Not very many twin baptism invitations out there and especially invitations without pictures so I was very pleased to have found and ordered these. Great quality for the price."
"you will make an excellent Choice with these invitations! The only thing that i didn't like so much was the normal paper but even with that was an wonderful invitation. Then i had to reorder its and i choose the shimmering paper and I have to say that is so beautiful!"
"I order all my invitations from tiny prints and have always been satisfied and this time was no different! Fast delivery and a beautiful product as always. I especially like the back detail on this invitation, it makes it extra special :)"
"The invites were exactly what I was looking good for. Delicate with a sentimental value to it. Perfect for my son's christening. All my guest really love the touch and the mood it set when they received it."

Kerry Lee Kilmer
Learn about upgrading this memorial...
Colorado, USA
Jul. 2, 2013
Logan County
Colorado, USA
Kerry Lee Kilmer, 61, of Willard passed away unexpectedly July 2, 2013 at his home.
Born in 1951 on a farm and ranch, he grew up milking cows and growing wheat. He graduated from Prairie High School in 1969. He received a Certificate in IT in Kansas City, KS before being drafted into the US Army in May of 1970. Kerry served in Vietnam, and was taught to be a killer and survivor. He was one of 16 men of 160 that returned to Hawaii in August of 1971 and always acknowledged that his mother "prayed him home". He spent another year touring Europe "trying to forget Vietnam". Upon returning home to the Willard, Stoneham, New Raymer Community, he farmed with his dad. He proudly proclaimed that he married the Coach of Prairie HS Girls , Maggie Kilmer (McAllister), in 1976. He raised two kids – Matt Kilmer born in 1979 and Kim Torluemke (Kilmer) in 1982.
During Kerry's lifetime he was a sports fan through and through to his kids and communities - never missing a high school sporting event of either of his kids and rarely a college one of Kim's. He was a socialite and a homebody all in one. He was a tinkerer, fixer and repairman of anything and everything, and a farmer deep in his bones and soul. He often said he loved to watch the crops grow.
He was a proud Papa to his grandsons Owen and Eli Kilmer and Lawrence Torluemke. He was so proud that his son returned to the family farm and that his daughter graduated from the Colorado School of Mines and has a successful career. Family was extremely important to him.
He is survived by his wife, Maggie Kilmer, mother-in-law Anna McAllister (Sterling), brother Kenny Kilmer (Owatonna MN), son Matt Kilmer and wife Beth (Willard, Co), daughter Kim Torluemke and husband Mark (Littleton, Co), and grandchildren Owen and Eli Kilmer and Lawrence Torluemke (who's sports he'll watch from afar). He is also survived by numerous cousins, nieces and nephews.
Proceeded in death by his parents Esther (2002) and Vernon (1999) Kilmer.
Visitation Sunday, July 7, 2013 with family receiving friends from 3pm until 5pm at Chaney-Reager Funeral Home.
Services will be held at the Berean Church in Sterling, Co on July 8th at 2pm. Burial will be at the Riverside Cemetery. There will be a dinner following the burial at the Stoneham Community Building.
Memorial Contributions can be made in his honor to the New Raymer Lions Club and Chapel of the Plains Church.

GRIP GOES 13 Overshooting TopEntry ID: gripgoesot
Abstract: The Genesis and Rapid Intensification Processes (GRIP) experiment is a NASA Earth science field experiment that took place in 2010. It was conducted to better understand how tropical storms form and develop into major hurricanes. NASA used the DC-8 aircraft and the Global Hawk Unmanned Airborne System (UAS) configured with a suite of in situ and remote sensing instruments that were used to ... observe and characterize the life cycle of hurricanes. GRIP deployment took place in Ft. Lauderdale, Florida, for the DC-8, and NASA Dryden Flight Research Center, California, for the Global Hawk.
The GOES-13 "Overshooting Top" KML files were produced during the GRIP Field Experiment for use with the Real Time Mission Monitor (RTMM) tool. The magnitude of each overshooting top is the difference between the "anvil" temperature and the "overshooting top" temperature. These magnitudes are represented as a color coded display using Google Earth, a virtual globe, map and geographical information program.

TomC, Was told 18 months ago ASADA is chock full of failed public servants. Totally unprofessional and wasting tax payers money going to the Supreme Court becuase they couldn't secure sworn witness testimony at the time. Their case is full of hear say, possiblities and smoking guns especially re Dank, they have tainted all in the process without facts. There is no proof any player at Essendon took a banned substance. It is just as possible (allegedly) that Dank channelled the peptides through his own business interests on Essendon's dime.12 Dec 2014

Described herein are electromagnetic traps or tweezers. Desired results are achieved by combining two recently developed techniques, 3D negative refraction flat lenses (3DNRFLs) and optical tweezers. The very unique advantages of using 3DNRFLs for electromagnetic traps have been demonstrated. Super-resolution and short focal distance of the flat lens result in a highly focused and strongly convergent beam, which is a key requirement for a stable and accurate electromagnetic trap. The translation symmetry of 3DNRFL provides translation-invariance for imaging, which allows an electromagnetic trap to be translated without moving the lens, and permits a trap array by using multiple sources with a single lens.
1. A device for generating an electromagnetic trapping force for manipulating a position of a particle, the device comprising:
(a) a negative-refraction lens; and
(b) a source of electromagnetic radiation comprising an array of source elements,
wherein said lens focuses radiation emanating from said source of electromagnetic radiation to produce a light intensity or an electromagnetic field,
said negative-refraction lens and said source are non-movable, and
said source of electromagnetic radiation is configured to manipulate the position of the particle by selective activation of the source elements in the array of source elements.

This application is based on provisional application Ser. No. 60/791,537, filed Apr. 28, 2006, the benefit of which is claimed.
The research for the invention was sponsored by the Air Force Office of Scientific Research. The Agreement number is A865303.
One of the fundamental phenomena in optics is refraction, wherein naturally occurring materials obey Snell's law as a result of having positive refractive indices. However, in the 1960s, Veselago considered a notional material that had a negative refraction and proposed its use as a flat lens. Within the last several years, work on metamaterials and 'perfect lenses' revived Veselago's ideas and trigged intense discussions. Meanwhile, negative refraction was also investigated in photonic crystals (PhCs) by engineering their dispersion properties. Along these lines, experiments have demonstrated negative refraction and imaging based on negative refraction by two-dimensional PhC flat lenses. More recently, we demonstrated experimentally subwavelength imaging at microwave frequencies with a three-dimensional (3D) PhC flat lens that exhibited a full 3D negative refraction.
The belief that light carries momentum and therefore can exert force on electrically neutral objects by momentum transfer dates back to Kepler, Newton and Maxwell. However, the radiation force had not attracted much interest until the invention of lasers, which can generate light of extremely high intensity and thus exert a significant force on small neutral particles. This capability enables an unprecedented tool to trap and manipulate small particles ranging in size from the micrometer-scale down to molecules and atoms, as well as to drive specially designed particles as sensitive nano-probes. The techniques based on radiation force have found applications in a wide range of fields including biomedical science, atomic physics, quantum optics, isotope separation, and planetary physics. One of the most successful applications is the use of optical tweezers, which relies on a single-beam gradient-force trap. In biology, optical tweezers are widely used for their ability to nondestructively manipulate small particles ranging in size from tens of nanometers to tens of micrometers. In atomic physics, optical tweezers have found applications in cooling atoms to record low temperatures and trapping atoms at high densities. To implement the optical tweezers for achieving a stable trap, one requires a highly focused and strongly convergent laser beam, which is often realized through a microscope system and is limited by the working wavelength and numerical aperture (N.A.). To manipulate or "tweeze" particles in a large field of view, the system is required to be devoid of field curvature. However, high N.A. and small field curvature are often incompatible in a conventional optical system. In practice, optical tweezers are very expensive, custom-built instruments that require a working knowledge of microscopy, optics, and laser techniques. These requirements limit the application of optical tweezers.
In the Rayleigh scattering regime (λ>>r, where r is the radius of the particle.), the radiation force acting on a dielectric particle can be explained as the interaction between the polarized particle and the applied electric field. The radiation force produced by a focused beam has two components: scattering force and gradient force. Optical tweezers rely on the gradient force, which is proportional to the dipole moment of the particle and the gradient of power density. For a spherical particle in a dielectric liquid medium, the total dipole moment can be shown to take the form
The invention is a new device and a new use for an existing product. This invention presents a new and realistic application of the negative-refraction flat lens, namely, for electromagnetic traps (including optical tweezers).
The invention combines two recently developed techniques, 3D negative refraction flat lenses (3DNRFLs) and optical tweezers, and employs the very unique advantages of using 3DNRFLs for electromagnetic traps:
(a) Super-resolution and short focal distance of the flat lens result in a highly focused and strongly convergent beam, which is a key requirement for a stable and accurate electromagnetic trap.
(b) The translation symmetry of 3DNRFL provides translation-invariance for imaging, which allows an electromagnetic trap to be translated without moving the lens, and permits a trap array by using multiple sources with a single lens.
The flat lens is made of a body-centered cubic (bcc) PhC with the unit cell as shown in the inset of
To this end, an experimental setup is illustrated in
The sample used in the experiment consists of polystyrene particles dispersed in a liquid medium, dioxane (1, 4-dioxane: C4H8O2). Dioxane has dielectric constant ∈b=2.1, compared to polystyrene ∈a=2.6; the inequality ∈a>∈b ensures the presence of a trapping force. More importantly, dioxane molecules are nonpolar and the material is transparent at microwave frequencies and therefore exhibits very low absorption—the measured loss tangent is 2�10−3 in the 16.0 GHz˜17.0 GHz frequency range. In addition, the density of dioxane is 1.035 g/cm3, which is very close to that of polystyrene, 1.04 g/cm3. This helps in decreasing the effect of gravity and reduces the friction of particles that have sunk to the bottom of the container.
Furthermore, it has been demonstrated that even the movement of the source is not necessary. It is possible to control the migration route of dielectric particles by an array of sources through a single lens. In this case, we replaced the source to an array of sources and the sources are controlled by a microwave switch.
In this experiment, sources in the array were consecutively switched on and off. As shown in
Based on these results, it is shown that optical tweezer array can be created through a single 3D negative refraction flat lens. The super-resolution and translation-invariant imaging ensure all sources in a plane parallel to the lens surface have their corresponding subwavelength images. The source array can be simply a liquid crystal display (LCD) plate with subwavelength period (e.g. 0.3˜1.0λ) and each source in the array corresponds to one pixel. When the particles have higher dielectric constant than the liquid, the particles will be trapped to the brightest image. As a result, by electrically controlling the position of the brightest pixel, one can control the trapping position. More importantly, one can manipulate the particles along a specific route, namely a microchannel, by turning on and off the brightest pixel sequentially, see

Winners have been announced for the NCUPS Sea 2005 underwater photo contest. As usual, Wetpixel was well-represented in the list of winners. Congratulations, everyone! There are some really beautiful shots in there.
Also, it's apparent that in general, the quality of slide entries is starting to suffer as a result of the mass migration to digital. The last time I judged the NCUPS Sea competition, the Best of Show for slides ended up being a digital image printed to slide.

Nikon updates D2x firmware, recalls some EN-EL3 batteries
Nikon released firmware 1.01 for Nikon D2x and D2Hs, which makes improvements to auto focus, fixes an AF assist bug when using certain Speedlights, improves flash performance and fixes a manual white balance bug.
They also issued a voluntary recall of some EN-EL3 batteries (for D50, D70 and D100) due to a shorting/overheating problem.

Selecting a Stirring Rod on Amazon.com
A stirring rod is used to mix solutions by hand in lab settings, and generally helps to speed up chemical reactions in lab containers. Usually tipped with rounded ends, the rods can also be used to decant or pour liquid slowly from containers, break up emulsions, and induce crystallization in recrystallization experiments. Available in various lengths and thicknesses, the rods typically are made of solid glass for resistance to heat and chemicals, but can also be made of plastic, such as polypropylene. A glass stir rod may be pre-fitted with a rubber policeman, which protects the glass and allows the scraping of wet solids from one container to another. Stirring rods are used to mix chemicals and liquids, and can be found in medical, industrial, and research laboratories, as well as academic and clinical environments.

Great Alaska Adventure Lodge
Mar 15, 2013 06:13 pm
My husband and I decided we wanted to spend our honeymoon at Great Alaska for memorable getaway. We were taken care of from our arrival in Anchorage to our departure from the lodge. We couldn't have chosen a better location to start out the rest of our lives together. The staff and service provided was amazing. We are already planning our next trip to Great Alaska.

Coyote Valley Band of Pomo Indians Annual Big Time Celebration / July 1 & 2 / Redwood Valley, Calif.
Expand Messages
- The 10th Annual Big Time Celebration will be held July 1 & 2
7751 N. State St.
P.O. Box 39
Redwood Valley, CA 95470
The Coyote Valley Band of Pomo Indians and Coyote Valley Shodakai Casino are sponsoring the event, which includes plans for games, booths, music, and barbecues. The Coyote Valley Tribal Council has extended an invitation to all families and community members.
"We hope that the community will join us in celebrating our culture and traditions," said Coyote Valley Tribal Chairman John Feliz Jr. "The Tribe is especially excited that this year marks the tenth anniversary of this celebration and would like to thank all of our neighbors for helping to make this such a successful event year after year."
The Big Time Celebration will begin on Saturday, July 1 at 11:30 a.m. with registration for the Fifth Annual Tom Ramos Memorial Stick Game Tournament. A traditional stick game consists of two teams each with a set of sticks. Each team hides two bones (one stick and one tie) and the other team guesses the location of the tie bone. Teams who guess wrong lose a stick. The team who collects all of the sticks wins the game.
Most of the events are free of charge. Saturday's festivities will include: Native dancers throughout the day; Jubilee Jumps and waterslides for children; Stick game tournaments; a traditional salmon barbecue; native bear dancers at dusk; live music from The Wild Horses Band. Sunday's activities will include: native dancers throughout the day; Jubilee Jumps and waterslides for children; announcement of winners of the stick game tournament; Angeline's Café barbecue; live music from The Jay Blue Band.
The celebration will end with a closing prayer at 9 p.m. on Sunday.
Recreational vehicles and campers are welcome (dry campers only). For more information, please call 485-0700
