Special Delivery!!
These little Love Bugs have a Special Delivery!
And they are all for you!
These turned out so pretty! I LOVE them!
Well, I love the finished product. I did not enjoy making the hearts.
To tell ya the truth, I've never liked making hearts. I find that they are hard to dip. Not the dipping really, but the tapping off the excess candy can be tricky.
You don't want a lot of candy in the top of the heart, so you need to tilt it from side to side. But because the heart is skinny it tends to get loose from the stick and starts leaning. The weight of the candy also tries to pull the cake off the stick.
I don't suggest hearts for newbie cake poppers... Stick with spheres.
However, if you really want to try a heart, here's how I made them.
For beginners, the basic pops with mini hearts will be easier.
Do you have someone special you want to send some Valentines Cake Pops to?
You're in luck!
I can fit four round and two heart cake pops into these little mail boxes and send them to your special someone. $15 + shipping
Send me an e-mail ASAP! email@example.com Supplies are limited!
Head on over to see her Love Bug Tutorial.
Jennifer, from Heavenly Cake Pops has a little video on how to make the mini hearts - hope this helps!
I link up at THESE GREAT parties!

I use what r00tf00 uses!
All Hail the great r00tf00!
Hey all, just wondering what window manager you use and why.
SimplyMEPIS comes with KDE default, but I'm starting to try others out. I've played with Gnome before, but looking for better performance so won't be messing with it. I looked at Openbox a little bit, but had trouble finding help on configuring it, so am starting to install and try out others. Next up Fluxbox and Afterstep.
Thanks for your input.
I use what r00tf00 uses!
All Hail the great r00tf00!
I like KDE. I've yet to try the latest Gnome environment, but I've heard it's pretty slick looking (but maybe doesn't have the tools that KDE does for complete desktop use?). Possibly Unbuntu will run on one of my boxen, and then I'll see for myself.
Just updated to Kubuntu 5.10 with KDE 3.5. I am liking it. The updated wasn't bad, had some wierdness updating the X server. Overall I am not seeing alot of difference between it and KDE 3.4.
Remember! Linus advocates KDE. ANd everytime you use Gnome they'll kill a kitten. :wink:
Using KDE on My main computer with Mepis.
Using ICEWM on my IMAC with Ubuntu.
As for my server its just command line.
I used to use Gnome but I think its too bloated for all the things it doesn't do.
Wildheart, how has it been running Linux on a PowerPC? I was always worried about finding programs for something other than an x86. I have an old PowerPC laying around, but was hesitant to try and install Linux on it. One, because I am pretty lazy and two because I wasn't sure how compiling apps would go with it.
Its not very different running on a powerpc. if your using apt-get its pretty easy. all the regular apps (firefox,gftp,bittorrent,openoffice,xmms) are already in binary so there isn't much compiling needed. And even if there was it wouldn't be any different then i386 compiling.
Grab a Ubuntu PPC ISO and try it out.

American Angler 18 Phantom
By Capt. Rob Smith
American Angler, part of the Smoker Craft family of boats, is one solid fishing machine. This model is designed with raised consoles for better view underway, better performance with lifting and turning strakes and fishing features to make it easy for you to concentrate on catching fish.
Starting at the bow, our test model had rails. I rarely see it, but this model has a jam cleat to grab the anchor line which is easy to set and release when you are in a hurry. Showing her utilitarian features, there are strips of aggrieve grip tape for sure footing on a damp deck. You won't have a hard time finding the bow light when needed, the Phantom has it stored in clips under the lid of the bow storage box. The full framed windshield has a flip-over walkthrough with a snap-on lower air dam to keep the cold air from reaching the cockpit on chilly mornings.
Stepping into the cockpit, you have two pedestal seats that are cushioned well for comfort and have slide and swivel adjustments. The raised consoles and high windshield provide great view and protection from spray and wind. The navigator/companion side has a glove box to store your wallets and fishing licenses as well as other items you want to keep dry. There is a drink holder for your companion's coffee or cold drink and a grab handle for an extra measure of security when it gets rough. Below the dash is a tray with vinyl edge cover on the lip to keep loose items corralled. A storage box at the floor level can hold spare batteries, trolling motor batteries or a bunch of loose items like gloves and sun screens.
Moving over to the driver's station, you also have a raised console with good visibility all around. The standard gauge set includes speedometer, voltometer, tachometer and fuel gauges. If you want to add additional electronics, like a fish finder or GPS, you have plenty of landscape around the dash. Switches are protected by push button breakers and steering is standard no-feedback with padded tilt wheel. Another tackle tray is built in under the dash and a matching box to the companion storage is at floor level.
The cockpit is spacious for working lines, pots or trolling gear. You will really appreciate the Endurance flooring when time to clean up after a heavy day of fishing. Under the starboard gunwale is a three rod rack and side tackle tray to keep your favorite gear ready. Over on the port side on our model was a folding jump seat, another three rod rack and a livewell in the seat base. Folding down the seat back gives you easy access to another rod rack and tackle tray on the port side. Gunwale tops are plenty sturdy to add additional equipment like electric reels and trolling gear. Ours had electric gear already installed with plugs in the aft wall corners. The aft wall is also wide enough to use as a walkway from the gunwales. In each corner are rod holders for trolling or storage between fishing holes.
When you need to check the batteries and pumps, access couldn't be much simpler than the snap on cover across the stern. Overhead we had a bimini for protection from the sun and rain. I would prefer to see quick releases on the bimini so I can easily leave it behind when I don't want to carry the weight or need the protection.
The 18 Phantom measures 18'2" length overall. She has a stable 85" beam width. She is rated for a maximum 150hp outboard with a 38 gallon fuel tank. This model weighs only 980 lbs without the engine and has a capacity of 1400lbs people and gear.
I tested the Phantom on a very windy inland Lake Wawasee in Indiana. She handled very well around the docks but did seem to be easy to blow out or cavitate in turns. At typical speeds and normal turns, she handled well. She was very quiet for an aluminum design. I found her top speed to be around 42.7mph at 5000rpm. Her best cruise on that day measured 29.4mph at 3500rpm for a maximum range of 191 miles on a full tank.
If you enjoy the rough waters, hard fishing and simple life, the 18 Phantom will certainly provide more than expected.

Archive for the 'Kaiser-Frazer Corporation' tag
Vintage Clippings: Newspaper Auto Advertising, Part IV
Following Vintage Clippings parts I, II and III, this is our final installment of vintage automotive advertising, clipped by my father from crumbling, half-century-old copies of The Marlborough Record that were found in a box in his parents' attic.
The independent automakers had their heyday in the first decade following World War II. And there were local Hudson Valley, New York, agents that carried those cars, like Michael Nardone's Highland Service and Supply, which sold the Kaiser-Frazer Corporation's fresh Kaiser and Frazer lines, newly rolling off of the massive Willow Run production lines in 1947.
Highland was a great place to go car shopping in the 1940s and 1950s, as these Willys advertisements also attest. The understatedly handsome Willys Aero, a product of Willys-Overland Motors, was introduced in 1952. These compact cars were built in Toledo, Ohio, and they were noted for their ultra-modern unit-body construction, thrifty four- and six-cylinder engines and smooth ride.
The 1953 Willys Aero was noted for its one-piece windshield, especially in premium Eagle two-door hardtop form. We love the largely exaggerated size of the above example… that, or the nattily attired 7/8-scale occupants! Robert R. Mandia Motors continued to offer this line, but for how long? How many local families drove an Aero Willys before they decided?
And now for something completely different. Going back to the pre-war era is the following advertisement clipping from Newburgh, New York's, Toohey Brothers Funeral Service. It was located just north of the then-popular shopping district on Broadway, close to the Hudson River.
The angle of the image of this beautiful and impressive flower car makes it tough to identify the make and model, but it certainly rides on a long wheelbase. We're betting that our eagle-eyed viewers can help us pinpoint what this vehicle is, and perhaps even tell us if any examples remain today. Please chime in in the comments.
This Vintage Clippings series has been a fun project… thanks again, Dad, and thank you, Hemmings Nation, for your enthusiastic reception.

Dishwasher safe (Top rack recommended)
Please read all label information carefully on delivery and prior to use.
This bottle warmer is great. We use it for every feeding and rely on it so much.This little thing heats up fast and is so convenient. I love this warmer.
You wear this BETWEEN feedings to soothe damaged nipples and for that purpose they work wonderfully. Contrary to what the description on MyOTCStore.com says, You do NOT wear these WHILE nursing, they are non porous and present a serious safety risk to infants if left in place while attempting to breast feed.
again: DO NOT WEAR WHILE FEEDING!
I must say wow for this bottle comes with cap which really convinience for traveling only just for $1, in the other way other bottle kit with cap will goest around $13+ which are too expensive, and the nipple seems to extract all the dust particles to the nipple which cause our daughter to cought for the first two weeks after we finally found out those clear nipple we bought at toy r us are $4-6 for 3 nipples, they extract dust/particles. so we order a bunch of similac nipples which most hospital uses, combine with this bottle, we able to use the cap on top of the similac nipple, but couldn't with any other nipples with this bottle. 4oz bottle is a great size for storing breast pump milks. we also has the medela bottle kit, it has a nice clearly print of the oz # on the bottle but it's fading out within 1.5mon and the nipple isn't that good compare to the similac nipple. so I would highly recommend to get this bottle in combine with similac nipple will make the best combo.
This bottle brush could use improvement. Even if you use a bottle with a large neck opening when you pull the bottle brush out of the neck the bristles splash everywhere and you end up soaked. I think the Dr. Browns on is better cause it has a foam top which isn't as messy. I do like the nipple brush attached but think the design is awkward.

PAWTUCKET — After having suffered eight straight defeats at Rochester and Lehigh Valley over the past eight days, the Pawtucket Red Sox desperately wanted to break that horrendous string against these same Red Wings on Thursday night.
The PawSox not only were swept in two consecutive four-game sets for the first time since last June 18-25, but went victory-less on a road trip of eight games or more dating back to 1988.
Manager Gary DiSarcina placed righty Chris Carpenter in charge of ending the recent misery, but he yielded a run in the first, then gave up a two-run blast to No. 9 batter Eric Farris in the second.
Things only got worse for Pawtucket early on, which lost its skipper after arguing a questionable call at first in the fourth.
The PawSox did manufacture five runs in the fifth frame to slice the Red Wings' advantage to 7-6, but – in the end – righty reliever Shairon Martis survived a one-out walk to Dan Butler in the ninth, and Rochester claimed the 7-6 thriller before what was left of 5,533 fans at McCoy Stadium.
Southpaw Logan Darnell took the win after hurling four-plus frames. He gave up eight hits, six runs (all earned) and walked two while fanning four.
Carpenter surrendered four hits, three runs (all earned) and three walks while whiffing a quartet, and reliever Will Latimer went the next 2 1/3, yielding four hits, another three runs and four walks with two strikeouts.
Anthony Carter hurled a solid 2 1/3 in middle relief, allowing just two hits and a walk with two whiffs for Pawtucket..
With the PawSox trailing, 7-1, and two outs in the back half of the fourth, it seemed J.C. Linares had beat out a grounder, one bobbled by third baseman Delbinson Romero, but first-base ump Brad Myers called him out.
The ruling obviously upset Linares, not to mention DiSarcina, who was booted from the game as a result. Myers' move nevertheless seemed to infuriate the Sox in the fifth.
Ronald Bermudez opened it with a hit to center, and Xander Bogaerts drilled his seventh homer of the season to deep center to cut the lead to 7-3. Dan Butler followed with a single to left, and moved to third on Jeremy Hazelbaker's hit to right before Jonathan Diaz drew a walk to juice the bags.
Alex Hassan then knocked a two-run single to the left-center gap to slice it to 7-5, and Middlebrooks singled to reload the bases. Manager Gene Glynn quickly replaced southpaw starter Logan Darnell with fellow lefty Aaron Thompson.
What followed was – in a word – crazy. With Diaz at third and Hassan at second), Mark Hamil-ton grounded to Romero, who caught Hassan in a rundown. He threw to second baseman James Beresford to get Middlebrooks, and shortstop Doug Bernier eventually tagged out Hassan, but not before Diaz had crossed the plate.
After the unusual 5-4-6 double play, Thompson struck out Linares to escape.
Just like that, however, the hometowners had knifed the deficit to 7-6.
In the initial frame, Carpenter got leadoff Antoan Richardson to line to left, but walked Beresford and Chris Hermann. Designated hitter Chris Colabello then stroked a line-drive single to right to plate Beresford and send Hermann to third, but the hurler fanned Jeff Clement and Romero to escape the frame.
Rochester picked up where it left off in the second. Mitchell started it with an infield hit, then robbed second before Farris rapped his fourth dinger of the season over the top wall in left for the 3-0 cushion.
Carpenter also allowed Richardson to reach a bunt single, then walked Beresford, though Middlebrooks made a premier stop of Colabello's grounder to thwart the surge.
With Will Latimer replacing Carpenter in the third, the Wings assembled a three-run flurry; the lefty issued walks to both Clement and Romero, and Mitchell's two-bagger to center scored Clement.
Bernier followed with a two-run single to left-center before an inning-ending twin killing, but the damage had been done: Rochester held a 6-0 lead.
In the interim, Darnell had cruised through the first 2 2/3 frames, but lost his no-hit – and shutout – bid when Hazelbaker drilled his eighth homer of the year onto the right-field patio.
The Sox' offense seemed poised to ignite when Jonathan Diaz ripped a single to left, but Darnell whiffed Hassan to abbreviate the rally.
Latimer struck out the initial two batters in the fourth, but Colabello crushed a shot just to the left of the back of the center-field concession stand, good for his 24th homer of the campaign. (In the process, he moved one closer to I.L.-leading Mauro Gomez of Buffalo (and formerly Pawtucket).
Clement immediately doubled off the wall in left, though Latimer closed the inning when Romero flied to right.
EXTRA BASES: The PawSox will continue this four-game set against Rochester tonight with a 7:05 p.m. tilt, with the next two slated for 6:05 p.m., Saturday (to be televised by NESN) and 1:05 p.m., Sunday.
Righty Rubby De La Rosa (2-2, 3.38 ERA) will battle fellow righthander P.J. Walters tonight. The first 5,000 fans entering the turnstiles at McCoy Stadium this evening will receive a free PawSox replica jersey, one with the No. 16 on the back.
Pawtucket has yet to announce the starters for the final two tilts of this set, though southpaw Andrew Albers (8-4, 3.29) will get the nod on Saturday and lefty Pedro Hernandez (2-2, 4.50) on Sunday.
From 2-3:15 p.m., Saturday, the third of four PawSox free youth clinics will take place inside the park, and it is open to youngsters of all ages. Skipper Gary DiSarcina, pitching coach Rich Sauveur and hitting coach Dave Joppie will be on hand – not to mention several players – to offer instructions and tips to the children.

European Commission levels the playing field for European business in international procurement markets Publicado el: 21/03/2012
The European Commission proposes to improve business opportunities for EU firms in procurement markets. The main objective of the initiative is to help open worldwide public procurement markets and to ensure European businesses have fair access to them.
The proposal also aims to ensure that all companies (both European and non-European firms) are on an equal footing when it comes to competing for business in the EU's lucrative public procurement market.
Public procurement affects a substantial share of world trade flows and amounts to €1 000 billion per year. In the EU, public procurement represents up to 19% of GDP and is an essential lever for kick-starting growth again, especially during an economic crisis. The EU's public procurement market is traditionally very open. However, this is not always matched by a similar degree of openness by our trading partners. Worldwide, only a quarter of the world's procurement market is open for international competition. The restrictions applied by our trading partners affect sectors where the EU is highly competitive, such as construction, public transport, medical devices, power generation and pharmaceuticals.
The new initiative proposed by the Commission today will increase the incentives for the EU's trading partners to open up their public procurement markets to EU bidders. It will ensure that EU companies can compete in the internal market with foreign companies on an equal footing. This initiative shall increase business opportunities for EU companies, both in the EU and internationally; boost the potential for small- and medium-sized enterprises to operate in a globalised economy; and increase employment and promote innovation in the EU.

Its just that old baseball stubbornness. You ever have someone say to you "its how we've always done it"? That's how I hear Buck saying it sometimes.
LJ Hoes is hitting well for Norfolk, not sure why he hits so poorly vs LHP. A right handed version of Nate would make this offense nearly unstoppable.

I didn't get to see any football games last night because somebody has to put the sports section together. But the scores were interesting. Woonsocket hammered Central 34-14 and Tolman squeaked by Westerly, 6-0. All you can say, at first glance, is Tolman probably drew the tougher opponent in the quarterfinals.
Woonsocket, 6-1 in Division II-B during the regular season, now visits Chariho, which shared the II-A title with a 5-2 record. That semifinal pairing is scheduled for Tuesday, Nov. 30. Chariho landed the top seed in II-A in a tiebreaker process with Johnson and Central, which were also 5-2. (Westerly somehow ended up 4-3 in II-A.)
Chariho closed its regular season last weekend with a 40-12 home loss to Central, the same team Woonsocket handled last night. Only fools believe in comparative scores so just forget what you just read. Woonsocket coach Carnell Henderson will probably hack into this website and delete the paragraph before his players see it.
On the other side of the D-II bracket, Tolman eagerly awaits the winner of tonight's SRA at Johnston game. The Tigers, 7-0 during the regular season, own home field advantage.
The Saints, who finished 5-2 after losing 37-0 to Tolman and 16-0 to Woonsocket in September, are the most improved team in the state. Coach Mike Sassi boldly junked the Spread offense and went back to the
Wing-T after the Woonsocket game, and the Saints went 4-0 in league games the rest of the season.
If the Saints somehow beat Johnston, and that would be a minor upset, then they would visit Tolman on Nov. 30 for a quarterfinal matchup that would draw a huge crowd to Pariseau Field. An estimated 1,000 fans came to the September meeting between these two city rivals.
But let's not get ahead of ourselves. The Saints still have to win tonight. If they do, Pawtucket football fans are in for a big treat.

NASHVILLE, Tenn. – Hanging up the chest protector and mask after 15 years and over 900 games in professional baseball including time in Major League Baseball with the Kansas City Royals, the Chicago White Sox and Colorado Rockies, Paul Phillips joins the Lipscomb baseball staff as assistant coach as announced by head coach Jeff Forehand on Wednesday.
"The amount of knowledge and experience that Paul is going to bring to our team after 15 years in professional baseball and parts of seven seasons in the big leagues is huge," said Forehand. "It will be a tremendous asset to not only our catchers but our pitchers and hitters as well. He's going to be a great addition to our staff."
The veteran backstop is set to join the Bisons staff after the Pacific Coast League season wraps up with the Las Vegas 51's
Having been a part of the Blue Jays, Indians, Rockies, White Sox and Royals organizations over the course of his career, Philips was a ninth round draft pick by Kansas City, eight slots ahead of New York Yankee Mark Teixeira.
"I've always wanted to coach when I was finished playing, I just didn't know whether it would be managing in pro ball or coaching in college. After talking with Jeff, it was a no brainer for me.
"I could see his passion for the game and his passion for the kids. I love the game of baseball but my body doesn't love me for playing it this long. As much as I love it, I could hear how much Jeff loves it and loves what he is doing, and that fired me up to want to come to Lipscomb."
Already a resident of Nashville, Phillips was drafted after one season at Alabama where he played alongside his cousin, Andy Phillips, who spent parts of eight seasons in the majors.
Phillips replaces Chris Collins, who left the LU program in June to take a position with the Fellowship of Christian Athletes.

The University of Washington is conducting an online, international survey of men who have attended an event or events related to preventing violence against women, or who are engaged in violence prevention work in an on-going way. This survey is available in English, French and Spanish.
If this describes you, they would love to learn from you! Please consider visiting the survey at the link below – your experiences and insight are very important.
The goals of the survey are to:
They are interested in hearing from men who have attended a single violence prevention event AND from men who have been working on the issue of violence against women for any length of time.

Outrageous Invasions: Celebrities' Private Lives, Media, and the Law by Robin D. Barnes. Published by Oxford in 2010.
The balance between freedom of the press and the right to privacy has evolved over the past forty years, and celebrities are routinely subjected to public disclosure of their private lives—in "outrageous invasions." The book describes the legal battles waged by celebrities in both Europe and the United States against the press that stalks, harasses, and exposes their private lives to the public eye.
Analyzing cases from the courts of Europe and the United States Supreme Court, Professor Barnes demonstrates that Europeans are better protected than Americans when privacy rights are defended in court. She states that: "In relation to rules that govern stalking, defamation, and invasions of privacy carried out by paparazzi on behalf of public media outlets, the most striking difference is evident in the European Union's concerted efforts to 'get it right'". The European Charter of Fundamental Rights protects development of personality and respects private life. Since the passage of the Human Rights and Data Protection Acts of 1998, there have been more concerted efforts to deal with media intrusion—both the direct "camping out at the entrance and exits of media targets" and indirect "telephoto lens or concealed camera and parabolic microphones … or searching through private spaces."
In the United States, even fundamental privacy rights have been weakened and are routinely ignored if the person involved is a celebrity. For example, video footage from the trial of pop singer Chris Brown included private and privileged conversations with his lawyer and the victim's lawyer that were supposedly "caught" by a microphone. This violation of the legal protection of privileged communications between lawyer and client resulted in no call for an investigation into what recording device was used to "catch" the conversation and who placed it.
The book looks at the role and nature of privacy in the United States and Europe and its relationship to the rise of the "infotainment" culture. The picture painted of American culture and its demand for the most intimate details of celebrity lives is not a pretty one.

By RICHARD SHAWSun Advocate publisher
For most people, the complexities of existence are often more than they can deal with. Taxes, death and kids (not necessarily in that order) often take them to the max of their ability to cope.
But for me, it's the simple things in life that do me in. Give me a good car wreck, a kidney operation or a divorce and I come through them with flying colors. It's the little things that almost drive me over the edge.
Take Sunday afternoon for example. My wife had recruited my youngest son to do some yard work around our place and he was out there in the cold wind picking up after our dogs and many of the other critters that are attracted to our yard. A few weeks ago we had bought a new washing machine, because our old one had lost it's balance (much like I often do) and walked itself right off the cement porch in our utility room down the stairs with about as much grace as an elephant on a greased tight rope. Since it's apparent demise and replacement it has been sitting on my back porch waiting to be hauled to the landfill when I got the chance to do it. My son had mentioned that he wanted it, because he thought it could fit in quite well with the d�cor at his bachelors living quarters, where no washer of any kind existed. I was all for it because about once a week I have been coming home at lunch to find his clothes laying all over the utility room while the washer purred away with his laundry in it. It always reminds me a little too much of the days when he lived with us.
To make a long story short (or I guess longer since I am just adding to it) he decided he wanted to move the washer to his house. Once we got it in my truck he looked at it and said, "Nah, I don't think I want it after all."
It seemed like perfect timing to now haul the thing to the dump, especially since there were other various metal objects at the bottom of my property which also seemed destined for the great blast furnace via the Carbon County landfill. I talked him into helping me load those up, tasks that we proceeded in doing with little incident of injury which was surprising. Usually someone (me) comes away from such activities with smashed fingers, ripped skin or any of the other kinds of abrasions and contusions that can be had at such an event.
So I drove off to the dump, leaving him behind to pick up further dog residue in my yard and arrived at the landfill safe and sound. I checked in, and since there was only metal in my truck there was not the usual ritual of driving to all the various deposit spots where we now must sort out the rubbish of our life before someone will haul it off or bury it for us.
I went to the metal pile and easily pushed and shoved all the big pieces of metal out of my truck with no incident as my Ipod played in the cab with George Carlin blasting from the stereo. As I climbed down from the back bumper I was particularly interested in a piece he was doing on how Cheerios are unsinkable in milk. He mentioned that the only thing that can make them sink is the fruit we use in our morning cereal, particularly peaches.
That simple act of listening and laughing was all I needed to cause a near disaster. As I stepped down, coincidentally, or on purpose, one of the very fruits he was talking about in his monologue attacked me. Someone had dumped out gallon sealed cans of fruit, peaches to be exact, right at the very spot where I was depositing the washer and other large pieces of U.S. Steels past. My foot just caught the edge of one of the full cans. Had it been an empty one, It probably would have just crushed with the tremendous middle aged weight gain I have acquired in the last few years, but the sealed can held fast and my ankle twisted up and sideways, something high topped work shoes would have prevented, but running shoes actually contribute to. As I fell backward I landed on the deposited washer, and my good leg came up nailing itself on the bottom of the bumper of the truck.
The truck was sitting on a very slight incline, and I had left it in neutral for some idiotic reason. As I lay there waiting for the pain to approach my brain I realized that the truck was beginning to roll. I could see it was headed for the down hill, and despite the fact that the landfill was empty of any other Carbon area junk depositors, in my mind I pictured it coasting down the incline and gaining enough speed that it would end up across the landfill's campus in the animal pit. Of course all the animals there are dead, so none of them would have been at risk, but if you have ever been to the animal pit at the dump, you would understand why I would not have wanted my truck to end up there.
I jumped up and chased (in a hobbling fashion) the rolling vehicle. The drivers door was open and I could still hear Carlin blasting away with one of his famous lists (this one about the American consumer) and I dived in the vehicle head first and was able to slap my hand on the brake, stopping it's forward motion. I lay there under the steering wheel for a second, my ankle feeling like it had been crushed by a vise, my other leg throbbing from it's direct contact with the truck bumper and my pride nearly dragged under the rear wheels of my vehicle.
I looked around; no one had seen me actually perform this ludicrous stunt although I could see another truck by the entrance with it's load being examined, so I got in my truck and drove home without further incident.
When I got home I was hobbling around the house and my wife asked me what was wrong. All I told her at first was that I had twisted my ankle, but after while I finally came clean, and told her the truth. She just shook her head and said "That's my Ricky."
Some day I will write a story about how I broke my collar bone with a motorcycle helmet or how I fall up the stairs (yes up the stairs) all the time.
But that can wait for another time, when my ankle and my ego are less sensitive.

A campaign from the Dutch city of Tilburg. We're taking a wild guess and thinking it is to stop people from parking there. Please enlighten us, Dutch friends. :-)
Here's a Copenhagen version of guarding your bike parking spot.
Your assumption is correct. Cyclists tend to leave their bikes all over the place although there is a lot of free designated parking space available just around the corner. The "dog" is an experiment to draw attention to notices telling cyclists where to park. No Parking signs don't work; I suppose the same is true for CPH.
The bulldog may not prevent people from parking their bikes there.^^
perhaps, the available parking space is too far away?!
It says, "barking watchdog against mis-parked bikes"...
Hier waak ik = "I stand guard here"
Stal je fiets in een van de gratis fietsenstallingen die Tilburg rijk is = Park your bike in one of the free bike parking spaces that Tilburg is rich in
Daar staat je fiets veilig en gratis = There stands your bike safe and for free
Tilburg fietst = Tilburg bikes (Tilburg goes biking)
@Konrad Krause: Only in their minds! Take my word for it: "just around the corner". But if you put an object in an open space like this, cyclists use it to park their bike against it. And one bike leads to more bikes ... Did you notice in the video that no bikes were parked against the shop windows? Probably because they are removed immediately.
The 'dog' had several articles and other free publicity, so if that was the aim, it is well done. But if it is a one-time thing and nothing is connected with it, there will not be a positive effect.
And in this case, as in many others, history cannot be neglected. What is a public square now, used to be an important part of the first red cycle lane in the world. A lane from Tilburg University through the hart of the city, to the smaller town Oisterwijk 12 km east.
The route still exists in the hearts and minds of the cyclists, just like the free unguarded bike parking that used to be there.
Will we replace the bicycle facilities with the electronic 'watchdog' in our hearts?

"Can I leave stuff at your place?"
July 30, 2012, 01:04:26 PM »
Quick BG:
I've been with my boyfriend for about 3 months, we've grown pretty close together really quickly and for a bunch of reasons (he lives in the city and I in the suburbs 1 hour away, I still live with my parents and he has his own flat ) I usually spend the weekend at his place, getting there directly after work.
I usually pack a small change of clothes (tee shirt/underwear) so that I don't have to lug around something too heavy/bulky but this week due to poor planning I only had a short to wear in cold-ish weather.
My question is is there any way to politely ask if I can maybe leave some stuff (a shirt, pair of pants..) at his place or should I wait for him to offer?
Does something like "After last week fail I was wondering if you would mind if I left maybe a pair of pants and a sweatshirt here so that I don't get caught up by bad weather?" sounds ok?
He did gave me his keys two weeks ago (I've never used them tho), but I wouldn't want to impose myself or have him feel invaded*. Right now the only thing I've left at his place is a comb (because he doesn't own one) and a sock that went hidding somewhere.
*While I type that I can almost hear him telling me I'm silly, like I've said, we're really close, we both feel like we've known each other for years and not 3 months, but since he's my first boyfriend/serious rel
I don't know what's normal or not so I don't want to take a chance.

While every rel
has its own timeline, in my experience (way too extensive
) its very typical to get a drawer and/or some closet space and/or a shelf or some space int eh bathroom at your SO's place, especially once overnights have begun and super especially when there is significant distance between your homes.
Its perfectly fine to ask (better then just commandeering space, but don't feel badly asking, its super normal. He might be wondering why you haven't asked/started leaving stuff there already.

Given that he has given you your own keys, I don't think it is a problem to ask.
In fact, I'd be tempted to leave the equivalent of an overnight bag - toiletries (toothbrush, toothpaste, deodorant, etc), a couple of changes of underwear and socks, a set or two of clothes. Pack it up in a duffel that he can toss on the floor of his closet, out of the way. If he offers a drawer, you could use that, instead.
'After forgetting to bring warmer clothes last week, I was thinking it might be easier if I left a few things here. Is that OK?'
After cleaning out my Dad's house, I have this advice: If you haven't used it in a year,
throw it out!!!!

While I never preferred to do this (I had a messenger bag I packed for overnights when I was in this situation) aside from maybe a toothbrush -- I hate wondering what it might have touched in transit -- I think you're spending enough time there often enough to ask about having some space in a drawer or on a shelf.
Good luck with asking. I think his refusal would be odd in the case you're describing.

No harm in asking. It's the logical next step, and his response will tell you much.

I think keys mean you can leave stuff there, but it would be polite to ask first. I'd be shocked if it was a problem

Don't feel silly. I am a commitment phobe, da
another commitment phobe. It took us 9 months to leave a toothbrush at each others homes. We also live in differnet cities, so it became necessary to leave certain things behind.
Just bring it up casually. When BF left started leaving things at my house I joked that perhaps we should have some sort of "ceremony".

Just bring it up and see. I think if you have keys and you have had that discussion about being exclusive (or whatever) you can safely leave some things there.

I'd just casually ask him when we're making plans.
If wisdoms ways you wisely seek,
Five things observe with care,
To whom you speak,
Of whom you speak,
And how, and when, and where.

Hopefully, your level of emotional intimacy allows you to ask these kinds of questions. If you don't feel comfortable asking to the point that you prefer to leave an emergency change of clothes in the car rather than ask for a drawer, then you have some additional questions to ask yourself.

I think it's fine to ask, and in my opinion it's a reasonable question, especially in your situation. My BF leaves a few clothes and a toothbrush at my place, since he often stays over (I don't have anything at his place, but that's because my apartment is much more convenient for both of us, so we're usually at my place rather than his). I don't remember us ever talking about is specifically, in our case it just sort of happened that after awhile there were always a few items of his clothing here. Eventually I made some space in a drawer for him, and all was well

Do you have a car? If so and that's how you get there you could always just leave a bag in the trunk just in case.

"Now that you have given me keys to your apartment, I think it is time to take things to the next level. (let him sweat for a minute) I would like to have my own drawer. "

Mr. Noph and I had lived together for 3 years before we decided we could share a chest of drawers. We'd moved together twice. Like you, in the early days we were on a fast track. His moving in was less of a step and more of a slow process over a year of all but his largest things ending up in my house (I lived alone, he with room mates.) I'd given him a closet for his stuff in the apartment I had when we started da
. When we moved the first time, he took a closet which had some lovely built ins. It wasn't until we were in our current house for a year and some home remodeling caused the the need to move his stuff from the tiny closet he had picked out when we had first moved in. His stuff was in various boxes, back packs, milk crates, etc. Only when we were faced with a pile of his clothes on our bed did we feel we were ready to take a big step in our rel
.....SHARING DRAWERS. Still, he has one drawer, I have the next. We still wont' actually let our clothes be in the same drawer together.
Every rel
has its very own special time line. If he gave you keys, I think it will be just fine that you ask. Mr. Noph and I are both commitment phobs and are certain the only reason we are still together after four years is that it doesn't feel like we've been together that long. Every day is still new and fun with him, like we just met a few months ago and are still in that maddening think about you all the time and laugh with you all the time phase.
I know part of the reason Mr. Noph was slow to go ahead and just move in already was prior re
. A prior girlfriend had been a real pain about returning items to him he valued. For the first little while, make sure whatever you leave there you can live without just in case you decide you do not want to ever return to his place. It would seem weird to me he'd give you keys but a begrudge you a drawer or a milk crate.
I hope you two find as much happiness as I have and always have that "first few months" feeling. =)
Sorry about my spelling.

Since 2006, the Department of Surgery-Research Division has experienced substantial growth in federal research funding in basic science and translational medicine. In addition to a marked increase in clinical research, our NIH portfolio has increased substantially, raising our ranking among other departments of surgery from 90th to the top 25 departments of surgery. This success has allowed us to partner successfully with two of the newly developed basic and clinical science institutes (Cancer and Regenerative Medicine) as well as other areas of research strength at Cedars-Sinai.
In specific, NIH funding has increased from approximately $500K in FY 06 to more than $4.4 million in FY10, representing 800% growth.
A substantial portion of this growth is attributable to our recent success in obtaining NIH ARRA funding. The DOS was awarded five NIH ARRA grants during FY10 totaling $1.7 million dollars.
As noted above, clinical research activities (research projects and clinical trials) have also substantially increased during the past three years. Department of Surgery investigators initiated 10 new clinical trials in 2009 and an additional 14 in FY 2010. In addition, approximately 65 new clinical research projects involving human subjects have been initiated in fiscal years 2009-2010.
