'I think people like a daddy a little bit'
Andy Cohen has said he has 'no problem' being a silver daddy – a status he shares with best friend Anderson Cooper.
The Real Housewives creator and host of the late-night talk show Watch What Happens Live said he 'thankfully' looks better now at 46 than he ever had.
'I'd rather have it be that than the opposite,' he told Attitude magazine.
Cohen describes Griffin's reasons for quitting Fashion Police as 'the pot calling the kettle black'
Kathy Griffin may try to embarrass Anderson Cooper each year when they co-host CNN's New Year's Eve coverage but he's got her back.
On Wednesday's night's Watch What Happens Live after show, Cooper stood up for Griffin during a discussion about her well-publicized decision last week to quit as host of the E! show Fashion Police.
'I'm on Team Griffin,' said Cooper who accused Cohen of loving to 'stir the pot.'
But a pre-date phone call ended any romantic notions
Imagine what a power couple Anderson Cooper and Andy Cohen could have been.
The dashing, silver-haired CNN anchor and 60 Minutes correspondent and the ever-smiling host of Bravo's Watch What Happens Live (WWHL) and producer of the popular Housewives reality show franchise.
It turns out they were originally supposed to be a romantic pair and were once set up on a date by a mutual friend.
'When we were set up … we had a phone call to talk before we actually went out on a date,' Cooper said recently while guesting on WWHL.
As they prepare to co-host CNN coverage for eighth time he says: 'I'm genuine friends with Kathy. She's funny as hell'
There are certain things you can count on when it comes to watching Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin co-hosting CNN's New Year's Eve coverage from Times Square in New York City.
Griffin will do something completely outrageous and Cooper will be mortified. Then he'll giggle - a lot.
'It's like seeing a rare gazelle or something'
Anderson Cooper had an unexpected brush with British royalty when he found himself on the same flight as Prince William.
After William met with President Obama at The White House Monday (8 Monday), the future King of England took an afternoon US air shuttle flight back to New York City.
'There was this kind of buzz and excitement to see this guy come on the aircraft,' Cooper said on his show Anderson Cooper 360 on Monday. 'It's like seeing a rare gazelle or something.'
CNN anchor missed just one day of work on Anderson Cooper 360
Two days after having an emergency appendectomy, Anderson Cooper returned to the air on CNN Tuesday not looking any worse for the wear.
Cooper, 47, did not mention his health scare at the top of Anderson Cooper 360 as he immediately jumped into a story on the ongoing situation in Ferguson, Missouri, where a police officer was not charged in the shooting death of an unarmed black teen.
CNN anchor tweets to concerned viewers that he was struck with 'appendicitis'
Anderson Cooper had a very good excuse for being absent from his nightly CNN show on Monday (1 December): He was in the hospital.
Cooper casually tweeted to his followers in Twitter: 'I'll be back on air tomorrow. Had an appendicitis and had to have sudden surgery last night.'
He was replaced on Anderson Cooper 360 for the night by John Berman.
'To just hear his voice, to see his smile ... For me, that would be an extraordinary thing'
While Anderson Cooper's famous mother, Gloria Vanderbilt, remains active at 90, the CNN anchor lost his father when he was only 10.
Author Wyatt Cooper died of a heart attack in 1978 at the age of 50.
During a conversation on CNN this week with Harvard professor Henry Louis Gates Jr. about family genealogy, Cooper was asked which of his ancestors would he want to meet with today if he could.
Says CNN anchor: 'As an adult when I got to know her I came to actually like her and appreciate her'
Joan Rivers got some laughs at Gloria Vanderbilt's expense back in the 70s and 80s but one person who wasn't laughing was the fashion icon's son.
That son grew up to be CNN anchor Anderson Cooper who recalled that period during a segment of his show Thursday (4 September) devoted to Rivers who had died earlier in the day.
'As a kid, I didn't like her, because she actually made fun of my mom in some jokes when my mom was doing the jeans and stuff,' Cooper confessed.
'... As a little kid, I found it upsetting to see her making fun of my mom.'
The CNN anchor confirms the incident but not a report that it left him in tears
It's well known that the late Lauren Bacall did not suffer fools.
Or, it seems, teenagers who express a political opinion different from her own - even of that teenager happened to be future CNN anchor Anderson Cooper.
The year was 1982 and Cooper's mom, heiress and businesswoman Gloria Vanderbilt, had invited Bacall to a dinner at her Southampton house for actress Claudette Colbert.
Says person serving him 'looked at me like I was the loneliest, most pathetic person on the planet'
CNN anchor Anderson Cooper may be rich and famous but he's still a hard-working journalist who was on the job on his 47th birthday this week.
After doing a broadcast from Boston, he did the five-hour drive back to New York City and decided to duck into a McDonald's for a late-night birthday meal.
He ordered a Big Mac meal and 'I super-sized it because it was my birthday,' the CNN anchor told David Letterman Wednesday (4 June).
Then things got a little sad.
Jokes CNN anchor: 'This is pretty much the platinum bomb heard round the world'
So why should Anderson Cooper care at all that Adam Levine has dyed his hair platinum blond?
Well, it seems The Voice mentor's new style has invited comparisons to the CNN anchor and they are not all flattering ones.
During his occasional segment The Ridiculist this week, Cooper pointed out that someone wrote to Levine on Twitter: 'Your hair makes you look like a much more attractive Anderson Cooper.'
Levine says he doesn't know why he changed his hair but said on The Voice this week that 'it just felt right.'
Star Trek icon has worked for marriage equality, LGBT employment protections and anti-LGBTI bullying
George Takei will go where Anderson Cooper, Ricky Martin and Rosie O'Donnell have gone before.
The Star Trek icon, LGBTI activist and social media powerhouse will be presented with GLAAD's Vito Russo Award next month at the organization's New York media awards gala.
'Few voices have been as outspoken in support of equality as George Takei,'GLAAD President and CEO Sarah Kate Ellis said in a statement.
Canadian broadcaster Damian Goddard attacked Cooper on Twitter for being gay, and said he was praying for him
Gay US TV anchor Anderson Cooper did not lose his cool when an anti-gay broadcaster hit out at him on Twitter, he simply put him in his place with a snappy response.
CNN anchor Cooper tweeted his support for the gay football player Derrick Gordon, who recently came out of the closet, but his message was quickly hijacked by anti-gay Canadian broadcaster Damian Goddard.
CNN anchor relaxed and candid in wide-ranging interview
Anderson Cooper gave a candid, wide-ranging interview to radio host Howard Stern this week during which the CNN anchor revealed more personal details about his life than ever before.
Cooper talked about his days as a child model - a profession he entered at the age of 10 because he was worried about an impending financial collapse.
Between the ages of 10 and 13, he modeled for such brands as Macy's and Calvin Klein.
But that early career ended abruptly when he got propositioned by a male photographer who offered him $2,500 for sex.
'There weren't a lot of other reasons to be there'
Openly gay CNN anchor Anderson Cooper paid a visit to Seth Meyers' new NBC late night talk show on Monday and shared with viewers why he once thought the host was gay.
It seems Cooper, a well-known gym rat, once saw the former Saturday Night Live writer and news anchor at a gym in Manhattan and jumped to conclusions.
'It was pretty much the gayest gym on the planet,' Cooper said, 'And I assumed you were gay, 'cause… there weren't a lot of other reasons to be there.'
Al Melvin can't think of a single example of when SB 1062 has been needed
CNN's Anderson Cooper had asked a simple question of Arizona State Senator Al Melvin.
Could the Republican lawmaker, who is running for governor of his state, think of a single example where the controversial SB 1062 bill has been needed in Arizona?
The bill, if signed into law by Governor Jan Brewer, would make it legal for businesses to discriminate against anyone - including LGBTI people - if they say it is for religious reasons.
Melvin, who voted in favor of the anti-gay discrimination bill last week, came up empty.
Jokes Cooper: 'Wait…what? CNN hired her again? For real?'
Anderson Cooper and Kathy Griffin once again have a date on New Year's Eve.
The real-life besties will co-host CNN's annual live coverage from Times Square in New York for the seventh straight year.
Because of Griffin's antics during past telecasts such as dropping an f-bomb, her participation always seems be in question up until a few weeks before the broadcast.
'Wait…what? CNN hired her again? For real?' Cooper said in a tongue-in-cheek statement.
If he 'had yelled the N word ... or yelled an anti-Jewish slur against that photographer, it would be over'
After using an anti-gay slur publicly for the second time this year, Alec Baldwin had his MSNBC show pulled from the air for two weeks.
Anderson Cooper, CNN's openly gay anchor, thinks he is getting off easy.
Baldwin called a photographer who got too close to his wife and child a 'cocksucking fag' last week in an incident caught by TMZ cameras.
'If Alec Baldwin had yelled the N word to that photographer or yelled an anti-Jewish slur against that photographer, it would be over,' Cooper said Monday (18 November) on his CNN show.

Wills, AS; Harrison, A; Ritter, C; Smith, RI; (2000) Magnetic properties of pure and diamagnetically doped jarosites: Model kagome antiferromagnets with variable coverage of the magnetic lattice. PHYS REV B , 61 (9) 6156 - 6169.
Full text not available from this repository.
Jarosites are a family of minerals of general formula AFe(3)(OH)(6)(SO4)(2) (where A(+) is typically a univalent cation such as Na+, K+, Rb+, ND4+, Ag+, Tl+, or D3O+). They provide good model Heisenberg kagome antiferromagnets with which to test suggestions that highly frustrated antiferromagnets have unconventional magnetic ground states and excitations. In all cases Fe3+ ions provide S = 5/2 moments, arranged on the vertices of well-separated kagome layers, and are coupled through strong antiferromagnetic exchange with values of the Weiss constants theta of the order of -700 K. We report de magnetic susceptibility (chi(dc)) and powder neutron diffraction studies of materials in which A(+) = Na+, Rb+, ND4+, Ag+, or D3O+ and show that for all materials except the deuteronium (A(+) = D3O+) salt, long-range magnetic order with the in-plane q = 0 spin structure sets in below a temperature T-f of the order of 50 K. (D3O)Fe-3(SO4)(2)(OD)(6) shows only a spin-glass-like transition at T-f congruent to 15 K. There is no obvious difference in the structures of the salts that show magnetic long-range order, and the deuteronium salt except for the coverage of the magnetic lattice, which is higher (97 +/- 3 %) in the latter than that of the rest of the family (less than or equal to 95%, and most typically congruent to 90 %). It is proposed that reduction of the coverage of the magnetic lattice induces long-range order in the jarosites, and the material (D3O)Fe3-xAly(OD)(6)(SO4)(2), in which the coverage of the magnetic lattice is 89 +/- 3 % has been prepared and characterized to test this hypothesis. chi(dc) for this material has a cusp at 25.5 K, and powder neutron diffraction reveals long-range magnetic order at 1.4 K with the same ordering vector as that seen in the other materials.

Imagine a single device that reconfigures itself into a resistor, a rectifier, a diode and a transistor based on signals from a computer. The multi-dimensional circuitry could be reconfigured into new electronic circuits using a varied input sequence of electrical pulses.
The hybrid material is composed of electrically conductive particles, each five nanometers in width, coated with a special positively charged chemical. (A nanometer is a billionth of a meter.) The particles are surrounded by a sea of negatively charged atoms that balance out the positive charges fixed on the particles. By applying an electrical charge across the material, the small negative atoms can be moved and reconfigured, but the relatively larger positive particles are not able to move.
By moving this sea of negative atoms around the material, regions of low and high conductance can be modulated; the result is the creation of a directed path that allows electrons to flow through the material. Old paths can be erased and new paths created by pushing and pulling the sea of negative atoms. More complex electrical components, such as diodes and transistors, can be made when multiple types of nanoparticles are used.

Low levels of
dopamine, a brain chemical (neurotransmitter) involved
in controlling movement, cause symptoms of Parkinson's disease. The shortage of
this brain chemical occurs when nerve cells in a part of the brain (substantia
nigra) that produces dopamine fail and deteriorate. The exact cause of this
deterioration is not known.
The links between
Parkinson's disease and factors such as genetics,
aging, toxins in the environment, and
free radicals are all under investigation. Although
these studies are beginning to provide some answers, experts do not know the
exact cause of the disease.
Studies are ongoing to determine
whether there is a genetic cause of Parkinson's disease. Only a small
percentage of people with Parkinson's disease have a parent, brother, or sister
who has the disease. But abnormal
genes do seem to be a factor in a few families where
early-onset Parkinson's disease is common.

Turkey will keep its Jewish citizens safe, but the Jewish community should denounce Israel, Prime Minister Recep Tayyip Erdogan told a Turkish newspaper.
"Jews in Turkey are our citizens. We are responsible for their security of life and property," Erdogan told the Daily Sabah.
He added: "I talked with our Jewish citizens' leaders on Thursday, and I stated that they should adopt a firm stance and release a statement against the Israeli government. I will contact them [Jewish leaders in Turkey] again, but whether or not they release a statement, we will never let Jewish people in Turkey get hurt."
He said, according to the newspaper, that the Jewish leaders in Turkey should criticize "Israeli aggression," and that the Israeli government "abuses all Jewish people around the world for its fraudulent policies."
Erdogan on Friday criticized the United Nations for being "silent" on Israel's operation in Gaza and said that Turkey has had difficulty delivering humanitarian aid to Gaza because of Israeli restrictions.
In an interview with CNN, Erdogan said that "If Israel is sincere on establishing a cease-fire, we will convince Hamas [to do the same]."

Sam Querrey raises a racket in defeat at U.S. Open
Thousand Oaks graduate gives No. 1 Nadal all he can handle in four-set loss at Open
Sam Querrey is no longer Ventura County's little secret.
The Thousand Oaks High graduate staged his coming-out party at the U.S. Open in New York, and lent credence to his status as the "Next Great American" in men's tennis.
Playing in front of a nationwide television audience on Monday, Querrey gave the top-ranked player in the world all he could handle before losing to Spain's Rafael Nadal 6-2, 5-7, 7-6 (2), 6-3 in the fourth round at Arthur Ashe Stadium.
"Not the worst thing in the world going out to the No. 1 guy," said Querrey, ranked No. 55. "I got my name out there this week, and hopefully I can have more results like this."
Making his fourth-round Grand Slam debut, the 20-year-old Querrey shook off some early nerves to display top-10 potential by crushing forehand winners and refusing to surrender under pressure.
Nadal entered the Open as the tour's most accomplished player this season, winning title after title to overtake Roger Federer as the world's best.
The 22-year-old left-hander has already won the French Open, Wimbledon and an Olympic gold medal, and is hoping to add his first U.S. Open title.
But Querrey made sure it wouldn't happen without at least one long fight.
Querrey's stated "grip it and rip it" prematch strategy dissolved into a series of long baseline rallies with Nadal.
The style was expected to favor the sculpted Nadal, yet the 6-foot-6 Querrey maintained a fitness level and composure to match.
Nadal appeared uncharacteristically frazzled at times, missing forehands and struggling with his serve in windy conditions. He finished with 41 unforced errors compared to 37 winners.
Up a set and a break in the second, Nadal seemed to be gaining the upper hand. But Querrey fought back, breaking Nadal at love to even the set at 5-5.
The crowd roared to life when Querrey hit two strong forehands to even the match and hand Nadal his first set loss at the Open this year.
"After the first set, I looked up at the commentating booth and saw (John) McEnroe and thought he was probably dogging me on TV," Querrey said of the CBS telecast. "I knew I had to step it up and not get hammered by him for two sets."
Querrey and Nadal went back and forth in the third set before Nadal gained the edge in the tiebreaker and went airborne with a fist pump as Querrey's backhand sailed long on set point.
Nadal broke for a 4-2 lead in the fourth and held off Querrey in a dramatic seventh game. Querrey had seven break points in the 16-minute marathon, but could never close it out.
"I wish I could have got one of those," Querrey said. "But it's nice to know he had to earn it. I didn't just give it to him."
Querrey finished the three-hour, 13-minute match with 20 aces, 52 winners and 50 unforced errors.
When asked if Querrey impressed him, Nadal responded "No."
Nadal, who has won 42 of his last 43 matches, was already aware of Querrey's ability. Querrey took a set off him in 2006 only two months after turning pro.
"I know him," said Nadal, who will face American Mardy Fish in the quarterfinals. "... He's a good player, no? We know that."
It was Querrey's first time playing in Arthur Ashe Stadium, but the sport's largest venue had a hometown feel.
Three of Querrey's high school buddies took a cross-country, red-eye flight to New York to provide support as part of Querrey's bare-chested "Samurai" fan club.
Despite limited sleep, they were full of energy and enthusiasm.
"It was worth it a thousand times over. It was a lifetime experience," said Shane Poppen, via telephone, a senior guard for the UC San Diego basketball team. "To see somebody from the same high school and follow his career from playing Challengers to taking on the No. 1 player in the world is awesome."
Querrey leaves New York with two upsets and increased upside.
As obituaries are being written about the future of American tennis, the unconventional Querrey provides hope on the horizon.
The lanky Southern Californian with a goofy personality is showing that academies and home-schooling aren't the only ways to construct a champion.
Just three years removed from capturing the Marmonte League singles title, Querrey staged his deepest run in a Grand Slam.
"I am sure this will give him a lot of confidence going forward," said Grant Doyle, Querrey's coach. "It is more about self-belief now than anything."
Querrey's ranking will rise into the 40s, and his goal is to finish the season in the top 32.
One thing is for certain. After his Open run, Querrey won't be sneaking up the charts.
"It feels good knowing I can compete with these guys," Querrey said. "I just have to keep having fun and keep playing at this level, and maybe I could be No. 1 one day."
Bryans into quarters: Bob and Mike Bryan survived a day of upsets in men's doubles to remain in contention for their second career U.S. Open title. The second-seeded Camarillo twins defeated Michal Mertinak and Lovro Zovko 6-3, 6-2 in the third round. The Bryans play Germany's Christopher Kas and Phillipp Petzschner in the quarterfinals today.

Yofafo would like to thank everyone for the success of our project. Thanks to donations from 19 wonderful people, we were able to purchase 2 fine heifers, and hand them over to 2 women who are now our newest small business owners! It was very exciting as the cows arrived, and were driven to their new heifer shelters which had been erected in anticipation. Smiles all round, and we look forward to seeing these 2 amazing women succeed with their new ventures.
Thanks again you everyone who made this possible, and for changing a few lives in Uganda! We are now closing the project. The total amount raised was $1145, which enabled us to purchase the 2 heifers, erect shelters for them, an transport them to their new homes.

Wheeldon and Pärt at Works & Processby Dalia Ratnikas
The Solomon R. Guggenheim Museum, January 12
It starts in the dark, and a shear sheath of light brightens as a dancer moves her arms: first the muscular flutter of a crane, then the sharp extensions of a sundial's shadow, then the romantic gesture of a nymph paying homage to the sunburst of her own face. As the glowing bath brightens, she seems to have a shadow who makes the same generous gestures, slivers of seconds behind. Then, they emerge from the mist of light into the wash, a woman and a man; she is pale and near nude in a sheer stocking; he is dark and sheathed in a mulberry unitard.
She bends and flexes into Art Nouveau geometries, he supports her shapes, holds her arm—now her leg—now her entire body in the air. She wears pointe shoes and her legs are razor sharp. Her entire body, in fact, is razor sharp, in miraculous opposition to the luxurious side-bend of her torso. His body is soft, as though his gestures were filtered through a Gaussian blur and projected as a hologram; he doesn't seem present. He seems, in fact, armature, a prop to support the female's flexions and extensions.
Thus, though Christopher Wheeldon does away with many of traditional ballet's distracting trappings, aided by the stripped-down tone of the Works & Process series in the intimate Peter B. Lewis Theater, he clings to the art's recherché gender relations in both Liturgy (Fratres) and After the Rain, two dances set to the soul-shattering music of Arvo Pärt. In this Pärt-inspired evening, these dances were performed to recordings, introduced, and then separated by interstitial performances of live music sans dance.
The warmth of live strings provides unfair competition for the dancers' recorded music, and one wonders why, when such an empathetic set of musicians were available, the entire program didn't consist of live music. The American Opera String Ensemble and soprano Caroline Worra opened the show with the Estonian composer's L'abbé Agathon, augmented by an installation by Sophie Calle, and played Tarik O'Regan's The Woven Child between dances (O'Regan is a composer strongly influenced by Pärt).
Wheeldon's illustrative interpretations of Pärt's music are far from radical, and less startling than Calle's. To accompany L'abbé Agathon, the French filmmaker screened her mother's deathbed. Worse than this visual intrusion was the interruption of Pärt's rich reverberations by Calle's voice, reading an indulgent description of her whimsical memorial—burying a portrait, a Chanel necklace, and a diamond ring at the North Pole.
There is a danger in the disclosure of the particular in the midst of collective privacy—I found myself yanked up out of my tears and plunged into the cold depths of someone unfamiliar. Can I say, without being callous, that Calle's story means less to me, less to the strangers around me, than the rich, quivering tones of four cellos and four violas which, without words, break our hearts?
Our dancers, too—the astoundingly precise Wendy Whelan and her more ductile partners, Albert Evans and Sébastien Marcovici—ultimately create something less stirring than Pärt does. Giving life to Maxfield Parrish's romantic apparitions certainly makes for a pretty pas de deux, but today, that fantasy is irrelevant. In fact, when it includes not only transfigured faces, but a woman's acquiescent upturned palms as she swoons into a vulnerable backbend, her pelvis thrust yieldingly to her male partner's, it is insidiously dangerous. Pärt's taut music, fraught with dramatic tension, knows volumes more about love than Wheeldon's pretty shapes.

AMERICAN REALNESS: Move You/Move Me

At American Realness, its not rare to experience a feeling of déjà vu: whether you are watching new versions of shows you have seen before, or new shows by artists you know well, or new shows in familiar theater spaces. Although I try to meet each show on its own terms, in this festival setting I have a hard time not comparing and revisiting.

To Breathe: Bottari, Kimsoojas exhibition at the Korean Pavilion, was one of the most memorable presentations at the 2013 Venice Biennale. The Korean-born New York-based artist had the audacity to offer visitors an anechoicor sensory deprivationchamber off the main gallery of the pavilion, which served as an antidote to the sensory-overload that is the hallmark of most Biennale installations.

Colorado dental patients are being harmed by the very State regulators who are appointed by Governor Bill Ritter to protect them, a newly formed group, Holorado, contends. Self-interested Colorado regulators have "mile-highjacked the process" to place their own financial interests ahead of local citizens. Holorado is encouraging all dentists and their patients to attend a Colorado State Board of Dental Examiners meeting on July 9th to voice their dissatisfaction.
Denver, CO (PRWEB) June 17, 2009 -- Many Coloradoans who fear going to the dentist go less frequently and pay more than patients in most of the country, according to a group of angry patients and health professionals.
The protest group, Holorado, ranks Colorado near the bottom of the list of U.S. states that allow anxious or fearful patients to visit their preferred dentists and receive affordable, safe, effective oral conscious sedation.
"The Colorado State Board of Dental Examiners (CSBDE) is supposed to provide local residents 'open and safe access' to fear-reducing sedatives. But some self-interested regulators have mile-highjacked the process to redirect patients-in-need to them and other high-priced specialists," says a statement issued by Holorado.
The result is that Colorado residents are among those U.S. patients least able to avail themselves of anxiety-reducing methods that have been used safely by millions of patients outside the state and which conform to American Dental Association recommended guidelines, according to a state-by-state survey conducted by Holorado.
Worse, as Holorado points out, is the fact that some self-interested members of the CSBDE are now trying to push through even stricter regulations that Holorado believes will make it all but imp

"My color theme for my wedding it a variation of purples and this invitation was just perfect for it. The quality is also great! Delivery was amazingly fast! I am very satisfied with my finished product and would definitely recommend them to anyone."
"I used these for my wedding invitations and everyone who received them RAVED! They are nice and thick and printed beautifully. DO NOT forget to include the reception information on your invite like I did! I had the church information but failed to include location and start time for the cocktail hour! It simply says "reception to follow." I also took these incites and glued them into a pocket fold that was gold. I put stickers with our initials on them to seal the pocket fold. Looked AMAZING"
"These invites were perfect for our Late August rustic themed wedding. Designing was simple and they arrived earlier than expected! Terrific experience!"
"We were very pleased with the beautiful wedding invitations we ordered. We upgraded to a pearlized paper to add a rich sheen and ordered gold envelopes to match. We were very surprised at how quickly the order was processed and delivered, less than 2 weeks!"
"I absolutely loved these invitations. I changed the color scheme to "rich red" and it looked perfect for my early fall wedding. I also had them write something on the back of the invite, and they totally understood what I was asking, and the finished product looked absolutely fabulous. I also wanted to call and speak with someone about my request to have some text printed on the back, and the gentleman that I spoke with was extremely professional and helpful. I ordered both my save the dates and invitations from this company and have been nothing short of 100% satisfied. Not to mention, I finalized my order on a Tuesday, and it was at my door on Saturday..so so fast!! It was awesome!"


text: The Temple of Time wiki last edited by banielse on 10/28/14 01:34PM View full history Ocarina of TimeThe main body of the Temple consists of a large open room containing a warp pad and an altar. At the far end of the room lies the Door of Time, a sealed door that blocks access to the Master Sword. The altar is used to hold the three Spiritual Stones: Kokiri's Emerald, Goron's Ruby, and Zora's Sapphire. Only when these stones are placed together on the altar while the Song of Time is played can the Door of Time be opened.The sealed chamber beyond the Door of Time contains the Pedestal of Time on a raised platform. The Master Sword plunged into the pedestal can only be removed by the fabled Hero of Time, and acts as a key between Hyrule and the Sacred Realm.The Temple of Time can be warped to by playing the Prelude of Light.

Gear Question
Tim Doyle
Would this jacket work well as a shell in...
Would this jacket work well as a shell in a winter layering system? Could it stand up to the abuse of skiing/snowboarding? Would it keep me dry for hours on end?
Wally Phillips
Hi Tim Doyle,
Thanks for the question. When it comes to running the Mountain Hardwear Stretch Typhoon Jacket - Men's as a shell jacket for a Winter layering system, it would have its upsides and downsides.
You will stay pretty dry in this piece as the Dry.Q Core is as good as most Winter jackets in waterproofness and slightly better in breatheability.
That being said, the 30D nylon is a little frail in comparison to other Winter jackets and it may be too breatheable as it'll keep you warm while you're moving more than a bit, but stand still for more than a few minutes and unless you layer a little more heavy you'll feel that chill.
As long as you will be using this piece in actual trekking around similar to Alpine Touring for the majority of the time, it should work more than good. But, keep to a less breatheable and more durable jacket if you're looking for a resort only set up.

I just found out yesterday that my progesterone is 4.1. I'm now using prometrium suppositories. I have never had low progesterone before but my midwife thinks that's why AF started for 2 days before my body decided it was indeed pregnant! My HCG was 110 on Friday and it had tripled over 3 days! So all is well except for the progesterone. Now I'm trying to figure out how my body is not producing this hormone as much as it should. I charted for 6 months prior and always had a nice climb post-O and a normal fall a day or two before AF. Anyone else?
I had low progesterone with my daughter (found out after I started bleeding heavily at 5w). I used the progesterone suppositories, and she turned out just fine. Hopefully you caught it early and will have good luck like I did! I just got my blood drawn today to check my levels this time around!
I took progesterone with ds & am again with this pregnancy.
I have pcos & it is a fairly common complication with pcos. I'm just thankful we can do something about it.
Surviving sleep deprivation one day at a time with dd (Oct '11) & ds (Oct '08).
I'm on 300mg of endometrin a day (progesterone suppositories) ... as I was with DD too. It can mess with your moods, and make you feel a little more sluggish and hungry too. But it's worth it!

Matzo Ball Recipe Video
17 comments | Leave Comment
There's no debate. At least not in this house. Hubby likes light, fluffy, soft, pillowy, perfectly round matzo balls that cut like butter and require no teeth to eat. So that's what he gets. And the kids know no different, so they love their knaidelach like that too. Truth be told I also have a little thing for hard-as-a-rock-get-me-a-
To unload my burdened soul I will have you know I used to make my perfect matzah balls out of a mix. But I was really good at it. And they were really round and really pretty and really tasty and really light and really elicited lots of compliments. So when I first came to Israel and was
crying shopping in the supermarket with my cousin Bracha (the same darling of a Bracha who gave me this Turkey Hummus recipe and asked her where I could find the matzah ball mix… she was like WHAT?!?! "they're so easy to make – I'm giving you my recipe!"
Shortcut Matbucha Shakshuka Video *Giveaway*
269 comments | Leave Comment
I'm kind of a connoisseur when it comes to Shakshuka. The fact that I have ordered it in most every restaurant that serves it should certainly qualify me as an expert of some sort, dontchya think?
I have had Spinach and Cream Shakshuka at Café Rimon in Mamilla, an open air mall outside the Old City of Jerusalem. I have had Leek and Eggplant Shakshuka at Gavna an outdoor cafe overlooking the Judean Hills in the Gush and I have had the traditional tomato and pepper Shakshuka at café chains across the country and at Ikea's kosher cafeteria in Rishon L'Ziyon. I have eaten Shakshuka both with and without both Feta and Bulgarian cheeses, both with runny and firm yolks and both spicy hot and not spicy enough. I love it. In truth, I just adore it still, this after 18 months of making it my mission to try every Shakshuka in Israel.
