What do Tom Niederhauser, Casey Petersen and Jack Wright all have in common?
In some ways one would be hard pressed to see a connection unless one knew it was business growth in west Price.
As of this spring all have projects going to change the face of the western most exit of the Highway 6 bypass, and those changes will be positive.
Niederhauser will soon be moving his long time restaurant business, JB's of Price, from the place it has been located for over 30 years on east Main Street to a new location that will not only continue to draw local business, but travelers who pass through the area on the by-pass.
Petersen will be starting up a completely new franchise for the area, a Winger's Restaurant, a chain that continues to grow in various places in the nation despite the economic downturn.
And Wright will add new lodging accommodations for those passing through the area and those who may begin to see Carbon County as a destination for fun and business, as his new La Quinta Inn opens sometime early next year.
"We are wanting to keep this restaurant as local as we can," said Niederhauser. "We want our long time local customers to feel comfortable in the new place."
For Niederhauser the change in venue is about attracting new business, but keeping with old traditions. He hopes the locals who have been used to stopping for coffee and Sunday afternoon dinners won't change their habits just because the restaurant is not on old Main Street anymore.
"We have poured so much money into that old building, it was about time we made a change," he said. "We have been lucky though, we have had a great landlord there, but with this facility we will own the building."
The new JB's will consist of 4987 square feet of space that will seat 160 people. It will have a good sized parking area and Niederhauser hopes being right behind Gopher Kiatipe's Market Express will help to draw people off the road and into the booths in the establishment.
The restaurant was set to open 100 days after the first shovel of dirt was dug. That means that some time in June the new building will open for business, right at the beginning of the tourist season.
Across the freeway, next to the Holiday Inn and the Super 8 Motel, another well known eating establishment will be opening in July. That is where the Wingers, now under construction, will present a different kind of dining experience for Carbonites and those traveling down the road.
"I'm just a guy that works at Morgantown Machinery in Helper, but I found my dining options in town were so limited that we often went to eat in Provo," said Petersen on the phone Wednesday. "I hope our new place will present some new experiences for those who want to stay here to dine."
Petersen says that the new Wingers will seat 170 people within its 4400 square feet.
"People have been used to Wingers in other places being kind of a diner place, but they are promoting and we are building a new kind of place from those," said Petersen. "This will have a more T.G. I. Fridays appeal. I hate to call it this, but it will be almost a sports bar."
Petersen says that the restaurant will have a full bar and 16 televisions sets in various places around the eating areas.
"It will be different from anything else in Price," he said.
While the lodging business has slowed down in the last six months in Price, where before some lodging properties were booked for months in advance by gas and oil field crews, and now rooms are usually easy to get unless there is some monstrous event going on in town, Wright feels that the future is going to be very good for his new La Quinta Inn.
The new motel will be built next to the Legacy Host Inn on Carbonville Road and will offer pretty much what most upscale motel accommodations provide.
"The facility will have 78 rooms with a swimming pool, meeting rooms and a breakfast room," said Wright on Wednesday. "We will also have an outdoor area for breaks."
Wright said that the lodging facility would have been farther along if it hadn't been for some knocks from the economy, but that Farr West Bank had really stepped up and helped out on the financing.
While some dirt has been moved around on the site, the real construction should begin very soon and Wright hopes the new motel will open next March.
"I just want to say that the delay in the construction has nothing to do with the people we have worked with in Price, they have been great," he remarked.
Wright said that if someone wants to see what the new building will look like and feel like they should visit the La Quinta in Rifle, Colo.
"It is very much a carbon copy of that facility," he said.
The new motel and the two new restaurants will be a good thing for Carbon County which often has facilities packed when events are going on in town, especially when things are happening at the Carbon County Events Center.
It will also add space for when the economy gets back into gear and the energy industry starts to pick up again.

Sorry Seahawks fans but this ranks right up there with the Charlie Whitehurst trade. Josh was one of the best Cornerbacks the Seahawks had at his position and the only one who showed any promise.
Wow still cannot understand this one, WTF?
The Seattle Seahawks surprisingly traded starting cornerback Josh Wilson to the Baltimore Ravens on Tuesday in exchange for a conditional 2011 draft pick.
Seahawks coach Pete Carroll said they felt there was enough depth at the position with Kelly Jennings and rookie Walter Thurmond that they could part with Wilson.
"This was a team that was very aggressive in coming after Josh," Seattle general manager John Schneider said. "They were in a situation where they have a strong need. It has more to do with how Walter has stepped up and how (Marcus Trufant) is playing and some of the younger guys."
The move came just as the Seahawks were wrapping up practice on Tuesday, a practice that Wilson participated in before receiving word of the trade.
Wilson spent his first three seasons with the Seahawks after being a second-round pick out of Maryland in 2007. Wilson started 23 of 28 games the last two seasons and took both of his interceptions a year ago back for touchdowns.
Wilson also has been a standout on special teams, averaging 27 and 25 yards per kickoff return his first two years in the league.
Also playing a role in the deal was Wilson's status as an unrestricted free agent after this season. In Baltimore, he'll fill a need created when cornerback Domonique Foxworth tore up his knee during a pre-camp drill.
"With Josh in terms of the value it was at a level with him being an unrestricted free agent after the season, it was at a point where we felt was definitely fair," Schneider said.
With Wilson gone, Carroll said Jennings will step into the starters role opposite Trufant. Jennings, nicknamed "Slim" because of his slender 180-pound frame, has started 29 of 64 games since being a first-round pick in 2006. But his lack of weight has led to Jennings getting isolated against bigger receivers in the past. He has just one interception in four season.
Thurmond will step into the fifth defensive back spot, less than a year after a devastating knee injury that cost him most of his senior season at Oregon. He'll share some of his nickel duties with safety Jordan Babineaux and Roy Lewis. Running back Leon Washington will become the Seahawks primary kick returner.
"Walter has had a great camp. He's played beautifully," Carroll said. "He's played almost more than anybody else so we've gotten a great look at him and really excited about his contribution."

Here's the scenario: you're working on a table in MS Word and suddenly a row splits in two. That is, part on one page and part on the next page.
You're looking this new development over, all the while thinking to yourself, "This just won't do. The topic in each row really can't be split apart."
At this point you're trying to come up with a solution… Continue reading

YIELD: Makes 8 servings
IngredientsOrange Layer:
- 1 large thin-skinned orange, such as Valencia
- 1/4 cup sugar
- 2 tablespoons skim milk
- 1/3 cup sugar
- 1/2-ounce package active dry yeast
- 2 large eggs, separated, plus 2 additional large egg whites
- 2 tablespoons trans-free margarine
- 2 teaspoons finely grated orange zest
- 2 teaspoons pure vanilla extract
- 2/3 cup stone-ground yellow cornmeal
1. Preheat the oven to 350°F.
2. Wash the orange. Cut off and discard the ends. Cut the orange crosswise into slices about 1/4 inch thick. Remove any seeds. Put in the skillet, add 1/4 cup water,and sprinkle with sugar. Bring the mixture to a boil over high heat, gently stirring to keep the fruit from sticking. Cook until the liquid is almost gone and the orange slices are caramelized. With a fork, move the orange slices into an attractive pattern in the bottom of the skillet.
3. In a small saucepan, heat the milk until warm but not hot. Remove from heat and add 1 teaspoon of the sugar and the yeast. Stir until the yeast is dissolved.
Set aside.
4. In a large bowl, beat together the 2 egg yolks, the remaining sugar, and the margarine until pale yellow and thick. Add the orange zest and vanilla; mix well. Sift the cornmeal into the egg mixture, stirring constantly. Stir in the yeast mixture,which should now be frothy.
5. In a clean bowl, beat all 4 egg whites until they form stiff peaks. Stir a third of the beaten whites into the cornmeal mixture. Carefully fold in the remaining whites. Spoon the batter in dollops over the orange slices in the skillet. Smooth the top.
6. Bake for 25 to 30 minutes, until a cake tester inserted in the middle comes out clean. Run a knife between the sides of the skillet and the cake. Cool on a rack for 10 minutes. Hold a flat serving plate over the skillet and invert the cake. Serve while still warm.

Our first introduction to the work of Steven Vogel was through his 2007 book, Streetwear; The Insiders Guide. Since our discovery of Vogel we became avid readers of the various outlets through which he has shared his work and writing.
The Black Lodges in particular was a website which featured writing from Vogel and a number of other creatives in the fashion and design world, every week it provided interesting reading and an escape from the university coursework we were swamped with at that time.
The Black Lodges has since returned, this time as an outlet for his own writing, work and the online store One Eyed Jacks. He also contributes to The Reference Council, an online destination for current affairs, design, fashion and music, a site which doesn't practice the repeated programming of some sites of this niche.
As someone who inspired the birth of Fiend Projects and Curious Fiend, we're stoked to have Steven on our little site.
Describe what you do and what led you to doing it, also, what was your plan B?
I am a freelance creative director & full time dad in real life. I have absolutely no idea how I got here, but I enjoy that. When I started University I wanted to be a history teacher, but skating and partying got in the way of that. At least that's what I blame it on. I never did have a plan and have no intention of having one for the future, but a plan B involves living on a pacific island sellling coconuts and used surfboards to tourists.
Where do you live and what is your favourite and least favourite thing about it?
I live in St. Pauli, Hamburg. It's an interesting place to live, it's a very political part of the world, with pretty much everything I could ask for outside my door and within walking distance. The part I dislike the most is the winter weather here, it's shit for someone who prefers summer all year around, but as we say around here, there is no bad weather, just bad clothing.
If you could live anywhere else for a year where would that be and how would you spend the year?
Most likely Joshua Tree, California. I love the desert and specifically, that one. I would spend that year exploring, hiking, making music, drinking coffee and forgetting about the world.
If money was no object what dreams would you live out?
Constant travel to be honest. I enjoy nothing more than travelling, and there is still loads of the world I haven't seen.
Name one person or thing that has inspired your work and how?
Ian Paley of Garbstore in London. I have been fortunate enough to know and work with him for nearly 15 years. His insight, ability to execute whatever his ideas are, intelligence and kindness are second to none and he continues to be a mentor to me on a daily basis.
What plans do you have for the near future?
Again, I dislike plans so there really isn't one. Living up to the responsibilities I have set for myself as a parent determine some plans, but that's really it, stay healthy, stay curious and stay rad.

A new iPhone concept video is doing the rounds on YouTube showing off what the iPhone 5 could've been, had Apple wanted projectors built inside the handset.
An iPhone 5 that not only runs iOS but OS X too, FranSnk3d's concept puts a functional spin on the two dark stripes at the top and bottom of the iPhone 5's rear casing.
While the real iPhone 5 uses these windows to allow radio waves to pass through to the antennas, the concept iPhone 5 envisioned by FranSnk3d uses them as a forklift for the handset to project both a keyboard and a full-size OS X display.
The concept is bold, to say the least, and there's almost 0% chances to see this becoming a reality any time soon (not in this hardware configuration, anyway). But that won't stop us from taking our hats off to this impressive 3D video rendition.

Birmingham, July 9, 2013-- Pompe disease is a rare and often fatal illness that attacks the heart and skeletal muscles. Many people with the early onset form don't survive past childhood. But just north of Birmingham there's an eighteen-year-old who's not only surviving, but thriving. He recently graduated from high school, and as WBHM's Southern Education Desk reporter Dan Carsen tells us, that's just part of the story:
I first heard about Joseph Walter from someone whose job is trumpeting schools' accomplishments, so I'm a little skeptical that he'll, quote, "change me." But I go to meet him and his best translator -- his mother, Debra -- at their house in Clay, Alabama. I knock on the door and introduce myself as she leads me into the house to Joseph's room. His enthusiastic greeting overpowers the rushing sounds and constant whine of his ventilator.
Joseph can move only one thumb and two fingers, one on each hand. He's in a special $5,000 chair in the main room, the walls of which are covered with colorful movie posters and other art he likes. He's hooked up to the ventilator, and to something else important -- the computer that connects him to the outside world. It's got a little joystick that moves a cursor over letters. Joseph types them by using his other hand to click a button. But he didn't have that back in his early school days.
"Most of his tests were multiple choice," says Pam Smith, a Jefferson County educator who was Joseph's three-hour-a-week homebound teacher starting when he was in first grade. "He'd read the question, and then he would sing." If Joseph hummed the first four letters of the the alphabet, she would ask, "Is your answer D?" And then, she says, "I could tell by his eyes."
Joseph has never been in a standard classroom.
Speaking through his mother, Joseph says, "People don't really understand how good a classroom is, because at least if you're in a classroom, they explain things to you."
Math gave him the most trouble. Debra says, "You and I take out a scratch piece of paper and work our problems out. He can't do that -- he does it in his head."
This story can't cover all Joseph's challenges, but it can't cover all his accomplishments, either. Joseph's doctors told his parents he wouldn't live past two, but he just graduated high school ranked twentieth out of almost 300. His language arts ACT scores are well into the nation's top ten percent. And crucially for Joseph and his family -- who have insurance but struggle with out-of-pocket costs -- he's earned a full scholarship to Kaplan University worth $67,000.
Debra recalls, "The lady on the phone said, 'You've got a scholarship to Kaplan,' and then .... He couldn't talk. He just closed his eyes and had tears running down his face."
Part of what got him the scholarship is his writing, which Pam Smith calls "off the charts." Joseph is a real writer, and it's one way his wicked sense of humor gets to come out and play. A family favorite is an essay that makes the case for cooking children. It's actually a satire of wealth inequality and stereotypes, but just in case I didn't get that, Joseph promises me he doesn't share any tendencies with a famously hungry villain once played by Anthony Hopkins.
Debra explains that Joseph has to watch gruesome films like that, not to mention the CSI-type shows that he loves, because they're related to his career: He wants to be a forensic psychologist specializing in facial micromovement detection. In other words, he wants to look at video of people's faces and help law enforcement determine whether they're lying. He's completed a nearby police department's Citizens Academy course, and he's writing a detective novel.
Joseph has been defying expectations for years. He's had support -- his parents, teachers, tutors, nurses -- but he seems to help those who know him at least as much as they help him. Normally jaded reporters included. Before I leave, I ask a standard question: "Is there anything else you think our listeners and readers should know -- anything I might have forgotten to ask you?"
Joseph answers through his mother again:
"He just wants to make sure people know ... that you always keep fighting. No matter what."
It's easier to take advice from people who back it up themselves.
Perspective adjusted.

Adults Only SF Saga of Sex With Alien Species! In a galaxy half-full of an ancient civilization's cast-off colonies, almost anything is possible, which is what two such data-archaeologists, sexy Aliis and Dree (along with J(AI)' their voyeuristic artificial intelligence) discover when they find a world formerly owned by a sex-industry giant, where sex-toys had been created, developed and grown for commercial sale. The pair doesn't know it but they are about to have their first "encounters of the fourth kind"--sex with alien species. Determined to get in one last round of lovemaking while they are still in zero-G, just barely have time to prepare for a stealth-drop from orbit. Aliiss and Dree land in the remote wilds, where Aliiss has her first encounter of the forth kind with an overfriendly, ursine-humanoid. Soon Dree discovers a community of humanoid-hybrids and witnesses a casual orgy, where he also has his first sexual encounter with a local. Meanwhile, back on the ship J(AI)? discusses voyeurism with the other onboard AI's. Aliiss and Dree may thing things are hotting up on this abandoned world, but they haven't yet encountered the tactile-responsive sex toys plants, bio-engineered for both male and female pleasure, whose scents cause constant horniness. The first volume in a very original take on the erotic future awaiting humanity in space!

I am pretty sure Mysterious Girl did get to number 1, but I think it was in the 2000's as a re-issue. In the UK I mean ... not another little island.
Edit --- it was 2004.

Cuomo Ties State Aid to Teacher Evaluations
The battle over a state teacher evaluation system is heating up, with both Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo and Mayor Michael R. Bloomberg using the occasion of the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr.'s holiday to attack what Mr. Bloomberg called "special interests and the defenders of the status quo."
The New York Times reports that the governor and mayor each took aim at the teachers' unions at M.L.K. Day events to say they would not back down from their demands that teachers move forward on a framework that the State Legislature approved in 2010 for "a new evaluation system that would be more specific and would allow for tougher sanctions against teachers who are rated ineffective."
But the governor is about to take his battle to another level, The News and The Post reported over the weekend. The Times reports:
Mr. Cuomo, according to people who have been told of his plans, will announce on Tuesday, as part of his proposed budget for the next fiscal year, that he will require the creation of an evaluation system as a condition for school districts to receive a scheduled increase in state education aid.
The state agreed to institute a teacher evaluation system as part of the terms for the $700 million it was awarded in federal Race to the Top aid. But The News reported that $100 million in federal school improvement grants and nearly $200 million in teacher incentive funds are also at stake, putting the total funds in jeopardy at about $1 billion.
According to The Times:
Under his plan, Mr. Cuomo will effectively order the statewide teachers' union and the State Education Department to settle a continuing legal dispute over evaluations and to agree to standards for the evaluation system. If they cannot, he will seek to impose an evaluation system as part of the state budget, which must be approved by the end of March, according to an official with direct knowledge of the plan, who spoke on the condition of anonymity because Mr. Cuomo's budget was not yet public.
The state and city teachers' unions had this to say, according to The Times:
Carl Korn, a spokesman for New York State United Teachers, said that while the union shared "the governor's frustration over the implementation of the law," tying teacher evaluations to state education aid was the "wrong approach."
"We think supporting teachers and unions in their work is a much better approach," Mr. Korn said.
Michael Mulgrew, the president of the United Federation of Teachers, which represents city teachers, focused his criticism on Mr. Bloomberg. "I believe he's trying to use this as sort of political grandstanding," he said.
Mr. Mulgrew, noting that his union had "no disagreement with the governor over the evaluations," did not object to Mr. Cuomo's tying the increase in education aid to the creation of the evaluation system.
"We're just as frustrated as he is, and I publicly came out and asked him to get involved," he said.
Mr. Cuomo will present his executive budget in Albany on Tuesday at 2 p.m. It will be streamed live on the governor's Web site.
Looking ahead, on Wednesday the second hearing of 25 will be held for schools that have been proposed for closing. The first hearing, at the Middle School for the Arts, or M.S. 587 in Brooklyn, took place last Thursday. The school had been opened by the Bloomberg administration to replace another low-performing school, M.S. 391, Gotham Schools reported on Friday. About 40 students, parents and others turned out, Gotham says.
Hearings are scheduled through Feb. 3, with multiple meetings on some nights, starting with Wednesday night at P.S. 19 Roberto Clemente in Brooklyn. A full list of the hearings and dates can be found here.
On the Learning Network on Tuesday, here's the question for students: What Is the Right Amount of Group Work in School?
It is off the Sunday Review article, "The Rise of the New Groupthink."

The CPU in that game is insane. If they don't want you to hit your opponent, you're not going to. It's the arcade version, and of course they wanted you to keep pouring quarters into the machine, so the CPU kicks your ass all over the place. Especially if you get Jade further up on the pillar. I usually just say f*ck it at that point and start over. It's cheap, frustrating, and I only use it to try new combos to use in the online mode. Hone your skills, then try your luck online. I'll PM you my friend code once I find my DS and we'll have a few matches.

The Boston community could rest easily last night after a five-day hunt for the two brothers responsible for bombing Monday's Boston Marathon, which claimed the lives of three and injured 180 others.
The bombers, identified as 26-year-old Tamerlan Tsarnaev and his 19-year-old brother Dzhokar Tsarnaev, were also responsible for the death of an MIT police officer whom they shot and killed after burglarizing a convenience store. Tamerlan was shot and killed following a shootout with police. Shortly after the suspects were identified, it was revealed that the eldest brother had a wife and 3-year-old daughter, whose family released a statement Friday following the capture of Dzhokar.
Katherine Russell of Rhode Island met Tamerlan in college and converted to Islam during their courtship, USA Today reports.
"Our daughter has lost her husband today, the father of her child," the statement from Russell's family reads. "We cannot begin to comprehend how this horrible tragedy occurred. In the aftermath of the Patriot's Day horror, we know that we never really knew Tamerlan Tsarnaev. … Our hearts are sickened by the knowledge of the horror he has inflicted."

6 February 2013
The UN World Food Programme (WFP) in January completed a pilot project to give cash to more than 7,000 economically vulnerable residents of the Ayni District in Sughd Oblast. (..) "The WFP tries to help families in the winter when income from seasonal work and cash remittances from abroad diminish greatly," said Alzira Ferreira, the WFP Tajikistan country director.
2 August 2011
Impoverished Central Asian state Tajikistan faces the greatest threat of food insecurity in the region, a recent report authored by the World Food Program (WFP) stated.
16 March 2011
The UN World Food Programme (WFP) is helping Tajikistan build a national school feeding program. This is a major step toward eradicating child hunger and poverty in the country. Right now, funding is a major issue with WFP facing a $2.7 million shortage for 2011. The World Food Programme relies on voluntary donations from the international community.
20 November 2010
The UN World Food Programme (WFP) plans to launch in January 2011 an ambitious aid programme for Tajik tuberculosis (TB) patients, according to a WFP statement published November 17 by Asiaplus.tj. The WFP will begin a three-year, US $7m campaign of giving wheat flour, vegetable oil, split peas and salt to every TB patient registered in the Directly Observed Treatment, Short Course (DOTS) programme. Family members will also receive food if their primary income source is too sick to work.
17 November 2010
The United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) will launch an important new phase of life-saving food assistance to Tuberculosis (TB) patients in Tajikistan, along with their family members, with the goal of building on past successes in increasing cure rates and lowering death rates from the disease, according to the WFP CO in Tajikistan.
3 September 2010
The UN World Food Programme (WFP) is launching a new school feeding project to provide nearly 370,000 poor children in rural primary schools with a daily nourishing meal, According to the WFP CO in Tajikistan. (..) "WFP is committed to giving critical support to children who will become the future citizens of the Republic of Tajikistan," said WFP Country Director Alzira Ferreira. "For over 40 years, WFP school feeding has been proven to give children the boost they need to go to school every day and concentrate on their learning process."
21 April 2010
The Food Security Monitoring System of the World Food Programme (WFP) reports that overall food insecurity has slightly worsened in the first quarter of 2010, leaving over one-third of the rural population in Tajikistan food-insecure, the REACT (Rapid Emergency Assessment and Coordination Team).
8 April 2010
In a novel track in the battle against global warming, the United Nations World Food Programme (WFP) has given 800 poor families in Tajikistan thousands of seedlings to plant not only to provide fruit, but to offset the carbon footprint of vehicles used in the agency's food aid work.
24 September 2009
Some 390,000 people in Tajikistan, about 9 per cent of the rural population, face severe food shortages due to both chronic vulnerability and the impact of this spring's floods (..). "The economic crisis, resulting in loss of employment and a decrease in remittances, has also hampered households' access to food," the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs (OCHA) said following a food security survey conducted by the UN World Food Programme (WFP) and the UN World Health Organization (WHO).
27 July 2009
Over the first six months of this year, Sughd province has received 1.74 million US dollars worth of humanitarian aid, which is 2.34 US dollars, or 57.38 percent, fewer than in the same period of last year (..). "Humanitarian aid has come to the province mainly through the UN World food Program (WFP), German Agro Action (GAA) as well as local non-governmental organizations Sogdiana-777 (Chkalovsk), Shulai Umed (Panjakent) and some others".

BRIEF: Brandon Daniel gets death sentence for killing Austin police officer Jaime Padron [Austin American-Statesman :: ]
(Austin American-Statesman (TX) Via Acquire Media NewsEdge) March 01--For the past two weeks, Brandon Daniel has been called a calculating, remorseless killer by the state, and a brilliant, depression-wracked computer scientist by his lawyers.
After more than eight hours of deliberations, a Travis County jury weighing his fate sided with the prosecution late Friday and decided the former 26-year-old software engineer should die for the killing of Austin police officer Jaime Padron.

When Women Were Birds: Fifty-Four Variations on Voiceby Terry Tempest Williams
Synopses & Reviews
Publisher Comments:
The beloved author of Refuge returns with a work that explodes and startles, illuminates and celebrates.
Terry Tempest Williams's mother told her: "I am leaving you all my journals, but you must promise me you won't look at them until after I'm gone."
Readers of Williams's iconic and unconventional memoir, Refuge, well remember that mother. She was one of a large Mormon clan in northern Utah who developed cancer as a result of the nuclear testing in nearby Nevada. It was a shock to Williams to discover that her mother had kept journals. But not as much of a shock as what she found when the time came to read them.
"They were exactly where she said they would be: three shelves of beautiful cloth-bound books...I opened the first journal. It was empty. I opened the second journal. It was empty. I opened the third. It too was empty....Shelf after shelf after shelf, all of my mother's journals were blank." What did Williams's mother mean by that? In fifty-four chapters that unfold like a series of yoga poses, each with its own logic and beauty, Williams creates a lyrical and caring meditation of the mystery of her mother's journals. When Women Were Birds is a kaleidoscope that keeps turning around the question "What does it mean to have a voice?"
"Williams, the sensitive author of Refuge, is shocked to discover her deceased mother's unwritten memoirs — shelves worth of blank pages. Under such unpromising circumstances commences a kaleidoscopic celebration and palimpsest — all metaphorical cliches but apt — on finding a voice and woman's identity beyond the silenced, selfless existence informed by children and a husband — even a family brimming with love. The empty pages of a journal manifest a hermeneutics of suspicion: the white upon which to project a lifelong journey of self-discovery. In 54 meditations (one for each year of her mother's life, and of Williams's life to date), we learn about an unusual (patriarchal) Mormon background and an upbringing that included a season of homeschooling in Hawaii, encounters with a husband-and-wife team of John Bircher's while teaching high school biology , a job at the Museum of Natural History in New York City, and the meeting of her future mate over a discussion of books and birds. Among deep influences are Nobel Peace Prize-winner and environmentalist Wangari Maathai; Helene Cixous; Clarice Lispector; the secret-women's language of China...and the soaring operas of Richard Strauss. 'If a man knew what a woman never forgets, he would love her differently,' Williams declares in her bighearted, deliberative hymn: old themes newly warbled. Agent: Carl Brandt, Brandt & Hochman Literary Agents." Publishers Weekly (Starred Review) Copyright PWxyz, LLC. All rights reserved.
"The writing of Terry Tempest Williams is brilliant, meditative, and full of surprises, wisdom, and wonder. She's one of those writers who changes people's lives by encouraging attention and a slow, patient awakening." Anne Lamott, author of Imperfect Birds
"Much more than a brave and luminous memoir, When Women Were Birds is a set of blueprints for building one of Americas most impassioned and audacious writers, as well as a transcript of the moment when she stepped determinedly into the full power of her own voice. In Terry's magical equation, rage + confusion + grief + accountability = love. At some point I realized I was reading every page twice trying to memorize each insight, each bit of hard-won wisdom. Then I realized I could keep it on my bedside table and read it every night." Pam Houston, author of Contents May Have Shifted
"Somehow, miraculously, Terry Tempest Williams has done it again: written a book that no one else could have, that tells the truth about our lives. If you want to understand how a writer finds her voice, read this gorgeous book." Sue Halpern, author of Can't Remember What I Forgot
"When Women Were Birds is a wise and beautiful and intelligent book, written for the women, men, and children of our times. It vibrates with the earned honesty of a great soul. It is a gift, passed on to readers with the same spirit of love and generosity with which it was first given to the author by her mother. A remarkable journey, a remarkable story." Rick Bass, author of The Wild Marsh
"Williams narrates stories that range wide and run deep...Here, readers get a Terry Tempest Williams who is at the top of her game, the master of her craft...a gift from a writer who knows how to split the world open. Cheryl Strayed, Orion

Cyber Colors Instant Moisture Boost Sparkling Mask Review
Ahh moisture. Dry skin folks are constantly seeking more, more, more. More hydration, more moisture, anything to get our tight, itchy skin back in order.
My own skin is performing at a combo rate at the moment but as the cooler weather approaches, dry skin havoc is right around my skincare corner.
Savior could possibly come in the form of Cyber Colors Instant Moisture Boost Sparkling Mask.
Cyber Colors Instant Moisture Boost Sparkling Mask hydrates the skin with Glycosyl Trehalose that allows moisture to absorb into the skin easier. It promises to smoothe, lighten, and tighten the skin with Algae Extract while protecting cells from dehydration and free radical damage with Hyaluronate.
Ahh so as you might have guessed that "sparkling" in the title is all about the formula being a foaming mask. Yes, indeed, this is a great foaming mask. Gosh, I adore foaming masks even if some do nothing in the ways of working.
How do they work or how does this one work?
Simple! It's a thicker gel formula which you smooth over your face. After about 30 seconds it begins to sizzle, pop, and foam up. It feels quite ticklish to me. After a minute you'll have a full face of foam on your face. You can sit around for 3 to 5 minutes or more if you choose. As you sit the bubbles begin popping on your face producing the tickling sensation I spoke of. Simply rinse with water after and you're done!
The effect?
Skin isn't necessarily mega moist but skin definitely feels softer, smoother, and brighter, almost dewy to the touch. Cyber Colors recommends using this prior to makeup however I don't have time in the AM to bother so I use it prior to bed at night and smooth on my night cream after. Come the morning, my skin definitely has an improved texture but results are not long term in my opinion so using once or twice weekly is a good idea.
It's $37 per bottle (bit costly when other foaming masks are cheaper) and isn't easily located within the US sadly. However, it can be purchased from Sasa if you'd like to try it out!
- Anyone looking to liven skin up and give it a boost of moisture (this works nicely at getting skin dewy to the touch but no long term results).
- Anyone wanting a foaming facial treatment that makes skin look brighter and smoother!
- Anyone who isn't interested in shelling out near $40 for something that won't produce long term results.
I really enjoy foaming facial masks and this is definately one of the better ones. It definitely does something for my lackluster skin but I just wish it would be something that would have some long term benefits.
Quite nice but a little pricey for what it does!
This product was purchased by the Muse for review purposes.
Read my full disclosure statement here.
8/31/10 12:04 jenna:
wow i've never heard of a foaming mask and i'm really intrigued by this! i'm imagining something like drinking a soda but for the face hehe! asian brands aren't really attainable for me sadly as they are so cute and unique and i love to read about them on your blog! do you know of any others i could get my hands on closer to home?
8/31/10 12:21 jenna:
awesome, thank you muse! once again you've broadened my beauty horizons 😀
8/31/10 15:48 regina:
ooh i definitely like the idea of this one. and my skin always need some moisture. but the price is a bit much for just short term results. i rather shell out more for a bottle of something that will give me long term results. so ill pass for now until you or i find something longer lasting^^.
8/31/10 15:58 regina:
are they longer lasting? =)
1/10/11 23:29 Tracy:
Hi Muse ! I bought Bliss Oxygen mask but haven't tried it yet. Is it similar because I think it it's also a foaming mask…
8/11/11 10:35 Chan Li Chin:
Malaysia now sell cheaper….
2 bottle only sell for us55

Mehdi Hasan exposes misconceptions about the continent
Explore Japan through its offbeat train culture
11 Jun 2012 12:34 GMT | Sport, Ethiopia, Somalia
Training in a bullet-riddled stadium where the remains of a rocket propelled grenade lies discarded on the track's edge counts as progress for Somali Olympic hopeful Mohamed Hassan Mohamed.
A year ago, Mogadishu's Konis stadium was a base for Islamist militants and a work out meant at times running through the streets, dodging gun-fire and mortar shells in one of the world's most dangerous cities.
"It's easier for us to train now," said Mohamed.
It is a staggering understatement from the 22-year-old, one of four Somali athletes vying for the two slots guaranteed for Somalia at the London games. No man's land
For 20 years the capital's rutted roads were the frontline in running battles between feuding warlords and later Islamist insurgents fighting to overthrow a government propped up by foreign forces and cash.
The Konis stadium served as an al Shabaab rebel training camp until the al Qaeda-linked combatants fled the capital in August last year. Bullet holes pepper the stadium's concrete stands, which lie in mounds of rubble in places.
Progress, however, is relative. Somalia's Olympic bid is run on a shoestring. There are no dedicated personal trainers, physiotherapists or nutritionists.
"Our facilities are poor. We don't have a modern training camp or a modern gym. We should replace our running shoes frequently. Instead, we wash them," said Mohamed.
For now, the 1,500 metre specialist trains in relative safety, unless the security forces block off the surrounding area in advance of a government delegation on the move, forcing the athletes back onto the streets. That means competing for space with patrolling armoured troop carriers, donkey carts and mountainous piles of garbage.Roadside bombs have become a growing danger.
In April, a suicide bomber blew herself up at a ceremony in the city's national theatre, killing the popular head of Somalia's Olympic committee and at least five others.
"The theatre blast was a painful incident. It was a shocking day," Mohamed said. Medal dreams
Somalia has never won a medal at the Olympic games.
Its best performance was in 1996 when its most renowned athlete, Abdi Bile, took sixth place in the 1,500 metres in Atlanta.
At the time, militia fighters in the lawless capital dubbed their machine gun-mounted pickup trucks "Abdi Biles" in a typically Somali mark of respect for the runner's power and speed.
Somalia is not expected to announce the names of the two athletes who will compete in London until later this month. Unveiling their identities earlier might endanger their lives in a country plagued by kidnappings and targeted killings.
Rarely able to travel to international meets, no Somali athlete qualified for the London Games outright. Each national Olympic committee is eligible for two guaranteed places - one for a man, one for a woman - in athletics.
"Pump your arms. Pump your arms with power," urged the Somali team coach, Ahmed Ali Abukar, armed with nothing more than a stopwatch.
"Don't slow up. Keep going until you drop," he yelled as sweat gleamed on Mohamed's sinewy body.
Abukar earns a salary of just $150 a month. That comes out of a $2,000 per month pot from the Somali Olympic Committee (SOC) that pays for the four athletes' accommodation in a renovated school classroom, their food and transport costs.
Kadija Dahir, president of the Somali Athletics Federation, said a request to the SOC for a further $3,500 a month to fund the training of two athletes failed.
"We need money to produce quality athletes," Dahir said.
"With that money we wanted to do high altitude training in Ethiopia and buy better clothing and trainers."
Zamzam Mohamud Farah kneels towards Mecca and prays before taking to the hard-packed dirt track in a pair of heavy trainers, baggy tracksuit bottoms and an orange bandana. One of two women competing for a wildcard entry, she puts her personal best at around 58 seconds in the 400 metres.
The women's world record stands at 47.60, a gaping difference that leaves her unlikely to contest a podium finish.
In a fractured country fighting to end 20 years of civil conflict, a medal, though, is hardly the point.
"I would not be going there to win, but for pride," Farah said. "I would be representing my flag, my soil and its people."

Trends in ferrous powders for use in powder metallurgy
IPMD 15th Edition 2010-2011, 9 pages, 5904 words
Dr Joseph M Capus updates us on the progress and trends in the ferrous powder industry with specific reference to global capacity and advances in powder processing and material properties for high performance PM steel components. Advances include a combination of alloy developments and also premixes with proprietary binders and lubricants that are helping PM to close the properties gap with wrought steels. Recent economic developments, particularly in the North American automotive industry resulted in production consolidations in Europe and North America, while the price volatility in alloy ingredients has focused attention on achieving target properties with the lowest materials cost.
Commercial grades of iron and steel powders for use in PM part production, including metal injection moulding, are manufactured by three types of process [1]:
- Chemical decomposition of an iron compound, e.g. solid-state reduction of iron oxide, or decomposition of gaseous iron pentacarbonyl.
- Atomisation of liquid steel by high-pressure water jets or inert gas streams.
- "Hybrid" process involving granulation or shotting of liquid cast iron, followed by ball-milling to powder and decarburisation in a high-temperature furnace.
Current production routes
The proportion of iron and steel powders made by atomisation has been steadily increasing for more than three decades. Over three-quarters of ferrous powders are now produced by the water atomisation of liquid steel in more than a dozen plants around the world, with the largest consumer being the structural PM part sector (see 'Powder Metallurgy – A Global Market Review' in this edition of the IPMD). Typically, selected steel scrap is melted in an electric arc furnace and refined to reduce impurities, before pouring through a tundish nozzle into a vertical atomisation chamber (Fig. 1). The liquid metal stream is broken up into particle-size droplets by very high pressure water jets that also provide rapid quenching (Fig. 2) [2]. The water/powder slurry is pumped out of the bottom of the atomisation tank to be dried. After screening off oversize material, the freshly atomised powder is annealed in a belt furnace under a hydrogen-rich atmosphere, such as dissociated ammonia, or now more likely pure hydrogen. The cake produced in the annealing step is processed into finished powder by crushing, screening and blending.
In a few instances, liquid steel is obtained directly from a neighbouring steel plant. The resulting minus 80 mesh (minus 180 microns) high-compressibility powder may be subjected to a second annealing step to further purify and increase compressibility (Fig. 3). The atomisation of liquid steel is versatile in that it permits economical manufacture of prealloyed powders as well as plain iron.
The production of sponge iron powder by the reduction of iron oxide played a very significant and historical role in the early development of the PM industry. The Höganäs (Sweden) sponge iron process [3], in use for about a century, involves the reduction of high-purity magnetite ore (Fe3O4) with carbon. The ore is first pulverised and then reduced to metallic iron by heating to over 1200ºC with carbon. This is accomplished by packing the ore and a mixture of coke and limestone into large ceramic tubes and passing these through a gas-fired tunnel kiln on a series of kiln cars. The iron oxide is reduced to a spongy cake in the form of a hollow cylinder; the limestone decomposes and reacts with sulphur in the coke. Höganäs sponge iron was originally used as a melting stock in the steel industry but eventually became the source of iron powder. To obtain PM grade powder, the sponge iron cakes are ground up and passed through magnetic separation and screening steps prior to purification and softening by annealing in a belt furnace..........

Prana Biotechnology Reports Disappointing Test Results
Meanwhile, Prana Biotechnology PRAN, +1.11% stock volume skyrocketed Apr. 1, with 13,818,296 shares changing hands, more than five times its three-month average volume of 2,695,070 shares.
The high stock volume is being spurred in part by the disappointing results the Australian biotech company released on clinical trial of a drug it's developing to treat Alzheimer's Disease.
Prana said based on draft results, Prana's PBT2 did not meet its primary endpoint of a statistically significant reduction in the levels of beta-amyloid plaques in the brains of prodromal/mild Alzheimer's disease patients, as measured using PiB-PET Standardized Uptake Value Ratio (SUVR).
Plaques Not Reduced
While there was a reduction in the overall levels of the PiB PET signal in patients treated with PBT2, the results were confounded by an atypical reduction of levels of the PiB PET signal in the placebo group as well.
Commenting on the result, Geoffrey Kempler, chief executive of Prana Biotechnology said: "This is the first time that Prana has looked at PiB-PET in a study with PBT2 to measure its effect on insoluble amyloid plaques. In our previous Alzheimer's study (EURO)1, we looked at levels of unaggregated soluble Abeta peptides in spinal fluid, and they were significantly reduced with PBT2 treatment. So in the IMAGINE trial we looked for an impact on the insoluble plaques as well, but did not see it differ significantly from the placebo."
