Glossary: crust terminology
At Slice, we often used slightly specialized terminology to talk about pizza. Here, we demystify some crust terminology—words like cornicione, leopard-spotting, and undercarriage. More

Clicking in to the Slice inbox today, we've got some hot, exotic pizza action from Thailand, courtesy of A Hamburger Today contributor Matty Jacobs. --The Mgmt. Man, this should really get caught in the spam filter. Spoiler alert: the pizza was horrible. More spoilers: I'm going to try to do a burger review for A Hamburger Today from Thailand. Mike's Burgers is apparently the best burgers in all of Thailand. We shall see. --Matty... More
Undisclosed until tomorrow, kids. Until then, enjoy this new step in C.R.U.S.T.™ scan evolution—composite shots. (Someday I'll learn how to seamlessly blend the pieces.)... More
Late yesterday afternoon, I posted about my experiment with scanned pizza upskirt shots and asked readers what I might call them. Friend of Slice Dan Dickinson came up with "C.R.U.S.T. — Clear Resolution Upskirt Scanning Technology." I like it, so from now on, any scanned upskirts will be known as "C.R.U.S.T.™ shots" or "C.R.U.S.T.s™". Also, I think it could stand for "Clear Resolution Upskirt Scanning Technique," if you're referring to the process as a whole. So I will probably use them interchangeably. So, thank you, Dan! Next time we're eating pizza together, it's on me! [After the jump, the results... More

Internally at Slice and on my Flickr photostream, this site has used the term pizza upskirt to denote the type of photograph you see here, but we have never called explicit attention to this terminologyuntil now. Slice first realized the value of shooting pizza undersides while perusing this post on eGullet, which compared the chars on the bottom of slices from Di Fara, Grimaldi's, and Patsy's. Believe it or not, until then, we had never thought of offering our readers photographic evidence of crust char. We liked the eGulleteers' idea but weren't that keen on the way the slices... More

Dinner for 1?
Good Morning Seattle 'hounds!
I will be in Seattle on business for the next few days and was wondering if you could suggest any good restaurants/takeaway/delivery places with vegetarian options for dinner? I will be staying at the Sheraton on 6th Ave, so anything within walking distance would be greatly appreciated!
I have been to Seattle a few times and have done the Cheescake Factory, Wild Ginger, The Palace and will being going to Crave later in the week.
Also, any great coffeeshops, cafes or other "foodie" places that are worth checking out would be great.
Thank so much!
Your fellow Toronto 'hound
These are two options that are on the quick/inexpensive end: CyberDogs is in the Convention Center (7th and Pine, I think) and have veggie dogs and sausages. It's a pretty tiny, funky joint. Up the street at 12th Avenue and Pine is the Baguette Box. They have two vegetarian bahn mis and various sides.
If it's warm out, you should go to Bottega Italiana, a gelato shop on First Avenue right near the main entrance to the Market!0

Andre Villas-Boas reported that the 'small strain' in an adductor muscle that kept Nacer out of Saturday's win against Norwich will keep him sidelined again.
"He's making good progress, so hopefully we'll see him involved again soon," said Andre after training on Wednesday.
Etienne Capoue (ankle) and Aaron Lennon (foot) also remain out.
"The rest of the players apart from Lennon and Capoue have trained," added Andre. "The team is ready for the challenge."

Yes, Rose, you are a Yankee. Never tell yourself otherwise.
I'll give it a shot. Here's a dirty joke:
A white horse fell in the mud.
That right there is funnier than anything Chris Rose ever wrote in his entire life.
Oy veh! I had no idea there wasn't much tailgating around the Superdome. It took that great goyim, Chris Rose, to set the rest of us straight. Thank goodness we have him to reveal the true nature of our culture. Where would we be without Chris Rose?
Coming next week: 350 words on how to tell annoying teenagers Get offa my lawn! by Pete Finney
I would leave a rude comment, but the apathy from this article has overwhelmed me.
Lee Zurkik is dating Mike Schaeffer?!?!?!?!? Who knew???
Or did I read that wrong?
Oy, veh! That was such an interesting kvetching. Chris Rose is such a great goyim. I can't tell you how meaningful this article was. To think that this symbol has been used in NO for hundreds of years, but it took Chris Rose to finally figure out the city has been using it and that is popular. And he even figured out that the symbol has gotten more popular since the storm. Wow, thank goodness Chris Rose can point out such relevant information to the rest of us.
Gee, I haven't laughed at an article in such a long time. Oy veh, Chris Rose, you are such a card. I cannot believe you are not appreciated more by every newspaper in the country.
Willy Wonka? Haw haw, how do you come up with this genius comedy?
Jeff, how did you not punch Brain A-W's lights out when he called you a twit?
Funny stuff, guys.
Chase-um David has resurrected and perfected the old time Saints CB pass defense, the "miss it! miss it!" defense. Old time Saints fans will know of what I speak.
If he were making the vet min, he'd be on the team. But at this salary? Sayanora, Chase-um!
Chris Rose: you are a complete idiot. The only person I would choose Brad Pitt over for mayor of NO is you, moron.
Hot seat? Or what? They'll replace him with Brother Theodore?
The weiner wave is in shambles. Let it go down the terlet in pieces.
Poor toolame. Even their beat writer is a woman. And they call LSU pussyCATS. Har
I don't know many LSU fans who thought the scheduling series w/ toolame was a good idea, but everyone agrees to kill it now. Even the weiners are tired of getting their heads kicked in.
As for the whackjob who thinks toolame will suddenly be relevant in the next couple of seasons because of an 'influx' of talent from Iowa or Tomorrowland for all I know, I will not only wheel you up and down the street at the old Norby's, I will paddle you from one end of the Mississippi river to another if toolame even has a winning season in that bottomfeeder conference in which they cellardwell. What are you prepared to do when you lose?
Sorry, Ham. You don't have the the right equipment for her team.
I'm sure you'd make a nice beard, though.
How ya gonna keep 'em down on the farm when they've seen Helena in gay Par-ee?

The Hawaii bowl! GUFFAW! Yeah, you got me on that one, weiner!
Look out boys! We won the Hawaii bowl! See, we have been relevant in the last 7 years! Yeehaw!
As I had to say twice before, the ween-Wave has not been relevant in over a decade. Go ahead and relive your Hawaii bowl, your 13-0 season against the likes of Valmont St. or whatever, the fact remains: NO ONE cares about toolame, least of all New Orleans. When LSU drops toolame from its schedule (this will happen soon, I'm sure, even with the supposed 10 year contract), the flood gates will open and toolame will be drowned in the chase to get to the swamprat league.
Maybe toolame has more fans in RUssia than the US?
Time for this awful program to slip into NAIA or whatever sleazy little swamprat, bush league will accept them.
Toolame hasn't been relevant in over a decade.
Couldn't they have voted toolame to finish out of the conference?
This team is so terrible they should drop back to NAIA or whatever sub-tier swamprat league will have them. They haven't belonged in the NCAA for over a decade.

Marshall student participates in fellowship medical research lab
HUNTINGTON -- Marshall University student Lyndsey Brown, a senior majoring in forensic chemistry, completed her second summer in a fellowship at the Masonic Medical Research Laboratory, an international cardiac research institute in Utica, N.Y.
Brown said she worked in the Molecular Genetics department both years with Yuesheng Wu as her mentor. Her task was screening patients with a cardiac arrhythmia called Brugada Syndrome to identify any variations in the genes that she was assigned.
"Participating in the summer fellowship program has been an incredible experience that I will never forget," Brown said. "It was amazing to have the opportunity to be involved with some of the ground-breaking research being conducted there. The knowledge I gained will not only be beneficial as I complete my studies at Marshall but as I go on to graduate school and my career."
The process begins with a patient's blood being sent to the lab where the DNA is then extracted. Brown's work involved amplifying the DNA, performing a series of reactions to prepare the sample for sequencing, sequencing the DNA in a machine that uses a laser to activate a fluorescent tag added to the DNA sample and analyzing the sequences to look for variations.

Today was way better on food than I had expected it to be, after a kind of rough start. Mattie woke me up to tell me he was making breakfast and was I going to eat. If he' cooking, I am eating. He fixed bacon and eggs and gave me too much of each but it was good- the bacon was really thick, and I ate it all. That alone used up about half of my points for the day so I was determined not to waste any more of them. After I ate I was still tired so I went back to bed.
Shortly after waking up again, I got cleaned up a bit, and Mattie's mom arrived. She got here about 3pm, we had a fudge pop, and later went out to eat at Texas Cattle Company. They had points values on part of their menu selections, but I honestly have no idea if they were old points of points+, and nutritional info itself isn't available. Anyway, they gave my dinner as being 8 points, and I also had a side salad, so I added in another couple of points in there as well, and 3 points for the beer I had with dinner.
After dinner, I had some ice cream at home for dessert.
While Mattie's mom was here, we watched part of numerous football games, and went out to dinner. Then we came home and played a game of Super Scrabble where Mattie annihilated me, and kicked him mom's ass pretty well too. Scores were like 270, 330, and 400+. Mattie always seems to win at Scrabble, but I manage to beat him at other games.
After that, we dropped his mom off at her friend's, and settled down for the night. I never made it to the gym because I had planned on going at about 3pm, not realizing his mom would be there much sooner than I expected. Still a good day though.

Six days in arguably the greatest city on Earth allowed us to spoil our senses through food, entertainment, and great company. This all came to a screeching halt upon our arrival at Europan Bakery and Cafe. There was surely nothing European about this venue, other than the snippy attitude we received from our hosts. I ordered a simple dish: the hamburger. In my yearning to silence the rumblings in my stomach, I applied logic and sensibility to my decision: I needed something quick, familiar, and unfathomably difficult for anyone to screw up. Hamburger bun, patty, lettuce, tomatoes; Go. They failed miserably. How quick they were to accept my cash payment, and easily they forgot my simple 1-item order. The rumblings grew louder. Upon numerous Canadian style friendly reminders, the cook proceeds to pull a meat patty from God knows where and place it in the microwave. Things were not looking good. I withhold my reservations, I'm Canadian we give everything a chance here, most of the time two. I dive in and take a bite. The meat is tasteless and tough. I said two chances right? The second bite yields a cold velvet center: red. Enough is enough, I make my way back to the counter and speak with the presumed manager. I politely inform him that the meat is not cooked. His reply? "That's how people like it here!" Exclamation point is verbatim to his tone. Well then, I ask him I would much rather prefer my meat patty to be well done. He pauses, looks at me straight in the eyes, and says with a tinge of condescendence I will let you know when it's ready, sir. Go figure the closest thing this establishment had to being European was me being called Sir. Of course, he then proceeds to put the whole plate in the microwave; why not just the patty I wondered? Now this ensured the buns, the lettuce, and the tomatoes would be irreversibly damaged. I give up! I give up! Please, the rumblings themselves are giving out rumblings of their own at this point! At the very least, I am glad to report that the night wasn't entirely ruined with this sub-standard service, for there will always be a 'dollar-a-slice' pizza around a friendly corner.

This is a very small place, but the turn over time is pretty quick. We ate breakfast here. Food as very good and quite reasonable. You get a lot of food for the money. Will go back again.
Posted by Tally FL on 04/21/2008
Good variety of tasty panini chips that come with them are very good. Excellent breakfast items. Some of the baked items looked better than they tasted, but isn't that almost always true? Friendly and efficient service. Very good choice open 24 hours for all kinds of cravings.
Posted by Nichole J. on 03/22/2008
This was our first time in NYC and we were very limited on time. But I had heard this place was good, so we decided to try it. We had a panini, which came with chips and a pickle. The panini was fantastic. Very fresh tasting, not something that had been sitting around forever. I regret not getting a salad, because you pick what you want and they toss it for you right there. They looked really yummy. The baked goods looked amazing. Yeah, it was small. Yeah, the seating was a little cramped and crowded. I heard someone complaining. It's New York, people. What do you expect? There's only so much room! We plan on going back next year, and when we are in that area, we will definately stop to eat at Europan.
Posted by Toolip63 on 07/01/2007
We were lucky enough to be staying at the Westin right next door to Europan. We really enjoyed the fresh sandwiches and the convenience. The cheese cake was really good. We ate there several times and it was always good. Service was very good and they are fast!
Posted by Anonymous on 05/02/2007
I ran across EuroPan while traveling on business. The crepes are out of this world! Certainly something I couldn't get back home. The next day I grabbed a sandwich for the road. It was tasty as well. Next time I'm in NYC, I will be sure to stop by.

They try and trick you with the window display filled with delicious looking baked goods. Muffins are dry and flavorless, chicken in the wrap was fatty. Unlikely to return.

Valtrus Proves Tops on Churchill Downs Turf
Joseph Sutton's Valtrus collared Faithope in deep stretch to win Tuesday's $52,700 allowance feature over the Matt Winn Turf Course by three-quarters of a length.
Ridden by Kent Desormeaux for trainer Eddie Kenneally, Valtrus returned mutuels of $5.40, $3.60 and $3.40. Faithope, ridden by Gabriel Saez, returned $10.60 and $6.40 and finished three-quarters of a length ahead of pacesetter Crowned General who returned $4.80 to show under Robby Albarado.
Valtrus, a 5-year-old Kentucky-bred son of Lemon Drop Kid out of the Valiant Nature mare Miss Valiant, was fourth turning for home and rallied four-wide under Desormeaux to make his winning bid. Valtrus covered the mile over a turf course rated as "good" in 1:36.50.
The victory, the fifth in 19 starts and second over the Matt Winn Turf Course, was worth $32,105 and increased Valtrus' career earnings to $172,310.

The 1990s heralded the golden era of Information Technology in the country. It transformed the economic landscape of a nation that was under the clutches of the government till 1994.
Liberalisation, privatisation and globalisation became the norm, even as the Indian economy made giant strides in IT and ITes (IT enabled services). Today, with a total revenue of US$70 billion, the Indian IT industry is touted as one of the most robust industries world-wide.
A study by National Association of Software and Service Companies (Nasscom)-Deloitte shows that the contribution of the IT/ITes industry to the country's GDP has gone up to a share of 5% in 2007 from a meagre 1.2% in 1998. Software exports from India have increased and account for about 60% of India's total software revenue.
It is estimated that IT exports from India will touch around US$175 billion and the total revenue of the sector will be US$225 billion in 2020. Besides being a key driver of global economic growth, the industry has been continuously providing massive employment opportunities to millions of people across the country.
The latest Ma Foi Randtad Employment Trends survey reveals that the sector is expected to add a total of 1,83,000 jobs and will post a growth rate of 9.5%.
In the South
Interestingly, South India is the largest IT/ITes cluster in the country and contributes to 60% of the total revenue. The software development activity is largely restricted to few South Indian cities such as Bangalore (also known as the Silicon Valley of India) that has over 5,000 companies, Hyderabad that accounts for over 2,000 companies, and Chennai that hosts over 2,500 companies.
Today, the industry employs over 2.54 million people, of which 1.5 million employees are from the South. As K Purusothaman, Regional Director, Tamil Nadu and Kerala, NASSCOM, points out, "Tamil Nadu and Andhra Pradesh contribute to over 40% engineers.
This is primarily because these States play host to over 1,500 engineering colleges. This year, over 2.4 lakh students were recruited by the IT industry across the country, as opposed to 1.5 lakh students recruited last year."
With a steady expansion of the IT industry in terms of its form, volume and structure, there is an ever-increasing demand for skilled professionals in this sector. Purusothaman says, "Being a service-oriented industry, the software sector is enormously dependent on the availability of manpower.
While there is enough supply of professionals from across engineering institutions to cater to the growing demand, our real challenge is in getting the right talent pool equipped with the necessary technical know-how and communication skills."
Academic preference
Owing to the phenomenal growth of the industry coupled with its lucrative nature, IT has successfully pervaded into all streams of engineering. According to official sources, over 60 to 70% of students across engineering institutions get into IT/ITes, as against core engineering companies.
As Mannar Jawahar, Vice Chancellor, Anna University, Chennai, says, "There is a spurt in the number of engineering colleges (Over 2,300 in South India) and they are specially set up to meet the growing needs of the software industry. Core engineering companies (civil, automobile, chemical,etc) do not take students in bulk like software companies.
That apart, the comfort and convenience of a white-collared job and the likelihood of working on overseas projects makes IT more sought-after than core." On an average, a fresh engineering graduate is offered a pay package of 3.5lakhs to 4 lakhs by IT companies.
This year, 186 companies have visited Anna University so far, of which 120 have been IT/ITes companies. Tata Consultancy Servcies (TCS) recruited over 1,000 students from the institution.
Uma Maheshwaran, Placement Officer, University College of Engineering, Osmania University, Hyderabad, says, "IT industry is an integral aspect of every other industry, be it biomedical, infrastructure, automobile or chemical.
Software companies place students and put them in projects that are closely connected to their specialisations or branches of study.
Besides, we ensure that sufficient industry-academia activities take place in the institution." This year, over 80% of the students were placed in IT companies such as Infosys, Cognizant, TCS, Wipro, from the University College of Engineering, Osmania University.
S Bhaktavatsalan, Placement Director, NIT Trichy, says, "There was a time when software companies would recruit students, right from the fifth semester. This did not give students much time to make the right choices. As students were introduced to the core subjects only after the fifth semester, they were left in a dilemma.
It also had a negative impact on the quality of professionals being produced in the industry." Three years ago, NASSCOM announced a change in this practice and stated that recruitments should take place only at the end of the seventh semester. "This has been a welcome change as students get enough time to make the choice between core and IT," adds Bhaktavatsalan.
Today, IT has moved beyond coding and decoding. The opportunities are enormous. M S Narahari, Placement Director, R V College of Engineering, Bangalore, says, "Business analytics, testing, quality control and cloud computing are some of the lesser-known facets in IT. However, most institutions are yet to design syllabi for these domains."
Industry prespective
The companies, on their part, have been involved in a slew of student-connect initiatives to attain talented professionals on board. Misson10X, a collaborative learning initiative by software major Wipro, is a step in this direction.
As Nagarjuna Sadineni, General Manager, Mission10X, says, "Today, talent is the biggest challenge that we face in the IT sector.
We initiated this project in 2007 to bring in a sustainable change in the employability factor." The Mission10X programme empowers teachers of engineering institutions and enables them to make education more effective.
It also ensures that students are aware of the latest trends and technologies in the sector. So far, over 13,000 faculty members from more than 900 engineering colleges across the country have been trained through this project.
Nasscom estimates reveal that the total workforce in the IT industry will be 10 million by 2020. Purusothaman says, "At the end of the day, IT is a business enabler and is a platform for various other industries to grow. The industry is here to stay, at least for the next two decades or so."

Professor of Theater Melanie Blood speaks at the student convocation on Aug. 28. Blood encouraged students to explore opportunities outside of their majors. /PHOTO BY BRIAN BENNETT
The new academic year started Monday as the college welcomed 1,014 freshmen to campus.
Total estimated enrollment this year is 5,693 — 5,494 undergraduate students and 199 graduate students. First-time students are joined by the largest class of international students in the college's history. There are 160 international students, including 46 new this year.
Students moved in to residence halls last weekend and are celebrating their first week of classes with annual Weeks of Welcome http://wow.geneseo.edu/ activities, including a carnival, game nights and performances, including a mind reader.
During student convocation Aug. 28, theater Professor Melanie Blood addressed "Transformational Learning at Geneseo," encouraging new students to take advantage of opportunities outside of their major that a liberal arts college like Geneseo affords them.
"We provide a variety of opportunities that can serve as a catalyst to transformational learning," said Blood. "Study abroad, research and creative collaboration with faculty, leadership opportunities in clubs and student life, service opportunities in the local community and abroad. The space to reflect analytically on these catalytic experiences is what creates the transformation in the individual's understanding of self, of individual's beliefs and of individual's behaviors."
Geneseo's freshman class was chosen from 10,000 applications and has a strong academic profile and is diverse in talents. The class of 2015 includes more student government leaders, team captains, award-winning writers and accomplished musicians, actors, and athletes than ever.
President Christopher C. Dahl addressed faculty and staff about the upcoming year at convocation on Aug. 26, wher he also recognized recent award recipients.

CHATTANOOGA, Tenn. --- The Chattanooga Mocs (1-2) scored 21 first quarter points, cruising to a 35-0 win in their home opener Thursday night against Glenville State (1-2). The story of the game was the UTC defense which held the Pioneers to just 78 yards of total offense which is the fewest yards allowed since giving up 68 to VMI on November 20, 1987 (31-0 win).
The effort included a meager 17 rushing yards on 21 carries for GSC while the Pioneers passed for just 61 yards on 13 of 24 attempts. The 78 yards came in 45 snaps which is just 1.7 yards per play.
Davis Tull (Knoxville, Tenn.) was the leader with four tackles and two sacks. Wes Dothard (Carrollton, Ga.) had a team-high six tackles with an interception. The Mocs had four sacks and caused two turnovers and six pass breakups.
On the flip side, Chattanooga got what it wanted on offense. The Mocs ran for 230 yards and threw for 247. The 477 yards of total offense was a yard shy of 400 more than the defense allowed.
Marquis Green (Palmetto, Fla.) had a game-high 59 yards on nine carries with two touchdowns. Jacob Huesman (Chattanooga, Tenn.) added 256 yards of total offense. He accumulated 210 passing with two touchdowns while rushing for another 46 (7 carries).
UTC scored on its first three possessions. The defensive domination led to incredible field position. Those drives were of 49, 42 and 36 yards.
The quarterbacks got the Mocs on the board first. Huesman found Terrell Robinson (South Pittsburg, Tenn.) deep down the right sideline for a 44-yard strike on the second play of the first drive. Just over five minutes later Huesman hit Faysal Shafaat (Orlando, Fla.) on a 10-yard catch-and-run to make it 14-0.
Keon Williams (Chattanooga, Tenn.) capped off the first quarter barrage with a one-yard plunge to make it 21-0. Williams had 42 yards rushing for the game on nine rushes.
Green scored the rest of the Mocs points with two second half scores in the first multi-touchdown game of his career. He scored from five and eight yards out in the third and fourth quarter, respectively.
Rahmann Lee led the Pioneers with 26 yards on nine carries. He also had three catches for nine yards. Terry Reese paced the defense with a game-high 14 tackles and an interception in the end zone that stopped the Mocs' initial drive in the third quarter.
Nine different Mocs recorded a reception tonight including both quarterbacks. Tommy Hudson (Moultrie, Ga.) led the team with six for 64 yards.
Next Saturday is Homecoming in Chattanooga along with the Southern Conference opener as Appalachian State comes to town. Tickets are available at the UTC Ticket Office or by calling 266-MOCS (6627). Purchase print-at-home tickets for $8 (general admission) online at GoMocs.com by using the promo code "#GoMocs12".

insterting a mini cd?
I need to insert a mini sized cd into my macbook pro.
but is that possible?
will it be able to eject it?
please help :*(
It will go in but it won't come back out, nor will it play. You would need a tray loading player to use mnis.
don't do it, you won't be able to eject it easily. Instead, it you really need to access it, put it in another computer (with a tray-loading) and copy the files on a usb drive or burn the mini-cd's content on a regular cd.
You could also get a USB cd drive and plug it in that way.
If it's stuck or you encounter resistance in doing this, don't force it and just take it to an Apple store. They should be able to remove the disc without having to replace the drive - although the mechanism may need to be removed in order to get at it.
Going forward, if you use non-standard optical discs, I would strongly suggest picking up one of these.

Animal Service-Learning Projects
High School
Middle School
Bluebird Houses In today's world young people are considered at-risk or disadvantaged for many reasons. By engaging these at risk young people in service-learning, both they and the community benefit. Providing engaging service-learning opportunities, students are less likely to engage in risky behaviors and are more likely to feel connected to their school and community. Service-learning can play an important part if shaping the lives of youth. Service-learning connects meaningful community service experiences with academic learning, personal growth, and civic responsibility. Throughout our math intervention class, students will have opportunities to engage in service-learning. Our literacy coach and math remediation teacher are working together to implement academic service learning into the math remediation classroom. Students will apply their knowledge of mathematics to construct bluebird boxes. They will apply what they are learning to build bird houses.

Also check out that pale skin! I think I might glow under blacklight lol!

Yeehaw this is such a great outfit- the pieces Sheila gave you really add to the look and I love how you tied the scarf. Don't worry, you're not alone, I'm also glowing in the dark!ReplyDelete
Oh I glow in the dark too, I never have tan skin even in the summer. I'm a pale Northern girl! I love the way you tied the scarf and I always love when you wear those boots because they are crazy cute.ReplyDelete
This outfit...omg...love the colors and such :D:D What style/model are the boots? I might get a pair (only if super cheaply found) for a cosplay :D?ReplyDelete
Ok, I don't know Sheila, but I love her. She is a great gift giver!!! I LOVE this belt and may I say that you are killing it lately????!!!! I love this dress on you so much and the touch of yellow in the scarf. Oh, and the boots too! Enjoy your weekend Megan!ReplyDelete
that snake ring is gorgeous! What an awesome gift!ReplyDelete
The scarf looks super cute like that and I love the belt! It reminds me of those pressed souvenir pennies!ReplyDelete
The snake ring is so cute and I again love the way you tie your scarves! It looks great wrapped under the collar :)ReplyDelete
Aw, I'm sorry the belt is a little big on you - maybe you could just seam it at the back?ReplyDelete
The green dress is cute!
o_O Is the snake going to eat the frog!?!?!ReplyDelete
LOL! I glow in the dark too! I kind of like this look, but you look a bit nonplussed by it. and really a lot of my belts are big ... they are great to wear all slouchy!ReplyDelete
You wear some of the most unusual things, which makes your style always fun to watch.ReplyDelete
I just want to say that I love how this outfit completely matches the background in the photo. Red hair and bricks, green dress and grass, brown boots/belt and dirt, even the yellow scarf picks up the low golden light on the plants.ReplyDelete
Very artistic!
This is a very timely western-inspired outfit because the Houston rodeo starts next week!ReplyDelete
The weather was humid and gross on Thursday here, but has since cooled down to more manageable temps. Hope it does the same for you!
Love it! You look adorable :)ReplyDelete
Love this look,Megan. The Frye boots are so wonderful.ReplyDelete
That is one gorgeous belt!ReplyDelete

Upgrade lands, but is it too little, too late for the SE flagship?
Sony Ericsson has finally brought Android 2.1 to the Xperia X10, ending months of speculation and delays. The software boost at last brings the X10 into 2010, with Google Goggles, continuous autofocus for HD video, five homescreens and improved backup options.
In addition, the X10 Mini and Mino Pro are both feeling the Android 2.1 love, as Sony Ericsson looks to push its Android blowers in the run up to Christmas.
However, questions will surely be asked about why it's taken so long for this upgrade to make it into the wild. And with rival efforts rocking Android 2.2 already, and Android 2.3 set to debut this week, it appears the X10 still has a lot of catching up to do.
Is this upgrade enough? Or has Sony Ericsson already lost out to HTC and Samsung in the Android smartphone stakes? Tell us what you think on our Facebook and Twitter pages.

text: Whatever happens, we players win. So take a gander at pieces of the Tier 9 sets, which are available on the Tournament Grounds on the PTR for a token piece and small change (and purely for testing purposes, Michael Sacco notes that one vendor is giving away tier sets for a song). While there aren't any models for the gear yet -- they're currently using Tier 8+ placeholder graphics -- it's interesting to note that there are two sets of gear for each spec. They're identical items, just named differently for the Horde and the Alliance because, as Blizzard revealed, Patch 3.2 marks the return of faction-specific gear. Even cooler, Blizzard departs from the old tier set naming convention by naming the sets after notable figures in Warcraft lore. Check out all the items in the gallery Alex and Adam painstakingly put together. You know you want to.

Last night was a sort of welcome dinner for Geof Darrow, the creator of a comic that's being adapted here. He, his family, the co-director (Geof is the other), and the Producer were all present, along with a few others including Maruyama-san, who both works at madhouse and owns the restaurant. The food was pretty great, and the company was totally rad.
It was a little awkward for me at first at first, what with my lack of skill and furthermore lack of confidence with my Japanese, but after the co-director encouraged me to drink as much beer as I wanted, well... I guess the awkwardness drifted more toward awesomeness, especially when I started chatting best I could with them -- thankfully Harumi, the woman sitting next to me, spent seven years working for Disney Australia and thus spoke English pretty well. It turns out the producer's favorite movie is Rocky so he was interested in Philly, and after noticing that I'm good with chopsticks (apparently, as I've been told by two totally separate parties now, I'm better than most Japanese) and I can speak a bit of Japanese, they were really emphatic about me being able to find a Japanese girlfriend. Alright!
The most frequently used words at the dinner were:
"duu duu" (doo doo)
"guddo rakku" (good luck)
"Aimu soooriiii!" (I'm sorryyyyy!)
"chin chin" (french version of "cheers," also means penis in japanese)
"Biiru ____ onegaishimasu" ( ___ beers, please.)
Last night I had a pretty wacky dream where, after trekking through the snow Sam, Kirk, Aaron, Mike and I got to the town hall for a meeting and sat down in the front row to play some videogames. Kirk made up some word and I started cracking up at it until a doll came to life as a wizard and started chasing me. As he was chasing me I pondered how the best dinosaur name is probably "Thesaurusaurus." Later the wizard-puppet-thing chased me into this big room, and then Mike came in dressed as a strange plump female chef, and he was really angry.
What a crazy night I had.

They were using the the french meaning but only because they knew it meant penis. At one point, the director raised his glass and said "penisu".

An investigation is pending regarding the early Tuesday morning fire at Oxbow Mining in Somerset. The Paonia Fire Department and the Gunnison County Sheriff's Office responded to the fire.
According to Randy Barnes, undersheriff, the fire was in the Oxbow load out tower where trains pull up to be filled with coal.
"According to the Oxbow Mine employees the fire has been smoldering in the storage silo for about a month and has worked its way into the coal load out chute," Barnes reported. "This caused two minor explosions in the train loading tower. Paonia Fire Department was able to put out the fires from the ground."
According to Mike Byers, fire chief, the Paonia Fire Department was dispatched at 12:10 a.m. Tuesday. The department sent four trucks, including a ladder truck, and 13 firefighters to put out the fire. The firefighters returned to the station at 4:30 a.m.
Byers described the fire damage as "pretty extreme." He said there were fires on the conveyor belt and in the load out tower.
Mike Ludlow, Oxbow Mining executive vice president, disagreed with the Gunnison County Sheriff's report, which stated the fire had been smoldering in the silo for a month. "I don't agree with that. We have had some spontaneous combustion events from heating in the silo, but we extinguished that by dousing it with water," Ludlow said. "Apparently it reignited and some hot coals, some hot embers fell down through the chute last night onto the conveyor belt and caught the conveyor belt on fire."
Ludlow said, "The load out facility itself is a conveyor belt that feeds the load out from the silo, and that conveyor belt is a complete loss. The load out building itself did not sustain any damage."
He explained, "The damage to the conveyor structure and the conveyor is about a 300-foot section of elevated structure, and that is a loss."
Ludlow has no cost estimates on the damage, nor does he know how long it will take to repair the damage. "We're assessing the damage right now and formulating a plan to remove the damaged conveyor," Ludlow said.
Oxbow last sent coal out by train in July. Currently, there are no shipments scheduled. "We have a small amount of coal remaining in inventory," Ludlow said.
Undersheriff Barnes stated Oxbow employees continue to monitor the fire. However, according to Ludlow, "We're monitoring the heat in the silo and the load out. There is no indication that there is a fire at the present time, but we are monitoring all locations for reoccurrence of a fire."
The Mine Safety and Health Association was notified of the incident and an inspector was already at Oxbow Tuesday morning.
In his latest update, Undersheriff Barnes said, "As of 12:30 p.m. [Tuesday], Mine Safety and Health Association (MSHA) are on scene at the Oxbow Mine, along with the president of the Oxbow mine. The fire is out in the load out tower. Mine officials and MSHA are concerned of the integrity of the load out tower. They are in the process of bringing in cranes to assess the load out towers structure. Until the cranes arrive in the next couple of hours MSHA and Oxbow employees and a Gunnison County sheriff's officer are on the scene dealing with traffic control and will be assisting with the assessment of the load out tower."

VIDEO: Jake Ellenberger "Jake Shields not a big step up in competition"
12 Responses to "VIDEO: Jake Ellenberger "Jake Shields not a big step up in competition""
This is going to be a good fight. can't wait to see it.
i totally agree! great match up!
Knew this was going to happen.. Got ELLEN for da win!
so what if ellenberger ko's shields? and does what GSP couldn't?
He KOs Shields, and puts him a step closer to a title shot. Doesn't make him any better or any worse than St.Pierre. He'll have to fight GSP to answer that question. If that's what your getting at. You also have to remember, Shields lost to a one eyed fighter. Who else do you know that fought for 3 remaining rounds (of 5 rounds) seeing only out of one eye, winning and still causing damage to his opponent. It's not so much how GSP is as a fighter, but how Shields is.
true that…I definitely think Ellenberger has the tools to beat Gsp tho.
is he urijahs cousin? they got the same chin
the butt chin ~
Ellenberger will rock Shields.
Shields will tap him.
I've always respected Ellengberger for his skills and personality. I'm becoming more and more of a fan. This is going to be a good fight. He will pressure Shields like no other. Just have to stay away from the ground.
I'll take Jake in this one. ha ha smartass in every crowd but to be serious i think Ellenburger stands a rfeal good chance in this one. Although Sheilds' stand up has improved by leaps and bounds compared to say just last year or so Ellenburger is much much better on his feet with accuracy and power. Before i saw Ellenburger fight Rochas i would have said Sheilds has quite an advantage on the ground but i agree with what Ellenburger said on his interview that he thinks Rochas actually had a better submission game as well as being much much more agressive with it. if elleburger keeps this fight standing he will do what GSP FAILED to do which is drop Sheilds and finish him.
