For immediate release
Feb. 3, 2004
Abilene Christian University has named Max Lucado, class of 1977, Outstanding Alumnus of the Year and will honor him at ACU's Alumni Day Luncheon Feb. 22.
Lucado's inspirational books have topped Christian best-seller lists and he serves as pulpit minister for the 4,000-member Oak Hills Church.
"We are proud of Max and his ministry through writing," said Dr. Royce Money, ACU president. "His success in this area and the number of lives he has touched certainly measure up to the standard of excellence that has brought honor to ACU."
With a thriving national radio ministry, "Upwords," and more than 28 million copies of his 50 books in print, Lucado has become one of the nation's most recognized and most popular ministers, making guest appearances on CNN's "Larry King Live" and meeting with the President and other government leaders.
Lucado, who grew up in the West Texas town of Andrews, received his undergraduate degree in journalism and mass communication and a master's degree in Bible and biblical related studies from ACU. He met Denalyn Preston (an ACU graduate of 1979) while on the ministry staff at Central Church of Christ in Miami, Fla., and they married in 1981, and the two served as missionaries in Rio de Janeiro, Brazil, from 1983-87. Lucado was hired as pulpit minister at Oak Hills Church in San Antonio in 1988.
He is the first author to win three Book of the Year awards from the Evangelical Christian Publishers' Association, and at least one of his books has appeared on the ECPA's best-seller list every month for the past 12 years. In 1993, Christianity Today named Lucado one of the seven most admired Christian authors. Lucado received ACU's Communications Department Alumnus of the Year award in 1987 and received the Excellence in Mass Media Award in 1995.
The Outstanding Alumnus of the Year Award is ACU's highest alumni honor, and is given for lifetime achievement.

It is a terrible idea to upgrade Missouri State University's football stadium.
It would burden the taxpayer directly or indirectly and the students with more fees.
Is the "Q" (JQH Arena) paid for? Building the "Q" has neither created better basketball teams nor increased the fan base.
That flawed logic won't work for the football program either.
Drury University and Creighton University do just fine without football. Football is an enormous drain of resources, and it's time to accept it and cut the football program.
Refocus on the mission to develop educated persons and stop spending money on unattainable goals.

Paragon launches 50 BTL products
Paragon has launched 50 buy-to-let products today with 44 under the Paragon Mortgages brand and six under Mortgage Trust.
The products launched by Paragon Mortgages have been designed to cater for professional landlords.
The six products under the Mortgage Trust brand have been created with amateur landlords in mind.
Paragon said tenant demand was set to continue to increase over the next 12 months and more pressure would be put on the private rental sector to cater for the influx. It believes professional landlords require access to products that met their specific requirements so that they can grow their business.
John Heron, managing director of Paragon Mortgages, said: "The new mix of products has been created to enable intermediaries to offer their landlord clients a flexible and open approach when looking for a Buy-to-let mortgage.
"I would encourage intermediaries not to shy away from approaching us if they receive a more complex or unusual request from a professional landlord as we have extensive knowledge of how they operate, the type of funding they require and specific expertise in dealing with complex-buy-to-let property purchases."
Heron added that one of Paragon's key advantages was the ability to use its experience to look through the detail at the fundamentals of risk and exercise a good degree of flexibility around non-core aspects of the proposal.
He said: "The private rental sector undoubtedly needs to expand this year to meet the growing demand. We hope that the creation of these new products will help intermediaries increase their offering to landlords and write more business."

I have a real problem with leftovers. If they're contained and refrigerated for more than a night… I am generally more than pleased to forget they've ever existed. Actually… I should say that I do have patience for sexy leftovers. Sexy leftovers I'm inclined to, not only not forget about, but to wake up in the middle of the night to snack on.
Sexy leftover include pizza, lasagna, and basically anything else Garfield that Cat might consume in excess.
Beyond the weird amounts of brown rice and salsa I have lazing around in my fridge, I sometimes have a shameful amount of fresh herbs wilting away, asking for forgiveness and such. I feel so guilty wasting these herbs that I've taken a stand, put my foot down, and busted out my olive oil.
We're quick preserving fresh herbs and garlic in olive oil. This will create a wonderfully flavorful oil, and extend the life of the herb we're about to throw away.
I should note, this is not the kind of oil you make, put in a fancy jar, and let sit on the counter for months on end. Oh no oh no oh no. This is not that! This oil needs to be kept in the refrigerator to keep any weird bacteria from acting up.
What will you flavor your oil with? Have any thyme or rosemary on hand? Some garlic? Smash it! Some black pepper? Crack it!
For this infused oil, I used my very favorite everyday olive from California Olive Ranch. It's fragrant and flavorful. It's a fruity olive oil, which is to say that it's rich, buttery and grassy. I use this olive oil for both sauteing and drizzling. It feels like an everyday treat. Ps… No one is paying me to say this.
Allow oil to meld in the fridge for a day or so. The oil will last up to four or five days. In the meantime… use it on absolutely everything! Pasta, eggs, toast, as a pre-dinner bread dip. Whatever you fancy!
If you've got butter on hand instead of olive oil, you might try this Super Herb Butter.
The Kitchn has some super great suggestions: leftover herbs in Simple Syrup and leftover herbs in Olive Oil Ice Cubes.
Waste not, want not…. and whatnot.
Thyme and Garlic Olive Oil
1/4 cup olive oil
2 cloves garlic, smashed and skins removed
2 tablespoons fresh thyme leaves, rubbed from their stems and coarsely chopped
about 1/2 teaspoon coarsely ground black pepper
Combine all ingredients together and store in a small, airtight container. Be sure to store this oil in the refrigerator when you're not using it. Use it on everything from fried eggs, to pizza, pasta, and toast. I find it best to label and date the jar. Oil will last up to 5 days in the fridge. After five days in the fridge the oil needs to be tossed. No pushing it with this recipe.
51 thoughts on "What to Do with Leftover Herbs"
Excellent idea, I don't know why I don't do this more often with the herbs I always end up throwing away. Thanks for the tips and reminder to not let them go to waste!
Herb-infused garlic oil could probably enable me to convince my husband of just about anything. He would love love this stuff!
I often make an herb butter….so delicious (but unfortunately there is the possibility of a spoon making its way to my mouth, oops)!
Looks absolutely delicious, but I'm going to second what Seanna Lea said about acdifying the garlic. Here's more info on homemade garlic-infused oil and botulism:
LOVE this idea, Joy! I hate it when I don't use my all my herbs before they start to turn.
I seem to think that I'd forget this oil was in the fridge though. ;-)
Certainly not as lovely, but to simply save fresh herbs, (I grow many types) I press them flat into a ziplock freezer bag and "file" them flat in my freezer. When I need them in a recipe I have to chop a chunk off quickly before the remainder thaws, but the part I use continues to have fresh herb flavor. I prefer this to drying herbs.
My sad looking basil plant thanks you!
I just started a batch of ghost chili oil yesterday.
In a cookbook I copied from gazillion years ago (I cannot be the only one who hand copied recipes into their own cookbook as a child), I had a recipe for herbed oils and vinegars. The recipe said that you should acidify the garlic. Is that something you considered with your recipe?
I have the hardest time seeing the font color on this website. I wish it was darker.
I hate eating leftovers, with two exceptions: Thanksgiving and pizza. but using up leftover herbs I could totally do! thanks for the idea :)
Wow, I love how super-green that olive oil is. It does look like quality stuff!
This can also be a great idea to make as a gift for friends!
Love it
Brilliant idea, no more guilt when I have to chuck out those wilting herbs at the back of my fridge!
This sounds so good! Too bad I just killed my thyme by forgetting that I should water occasionally, even here in Seattle. Along the same lines, I really liked this super-easy basil oil I made recently to ward off the dreaded bag-of-mushy-black-basil problem. (Oh, that only happens to me? How embarrassing.)
This sounds amazing, especially on toast. Have you tried fresh pesto on toast? Best. Snack. EVER.

|Regarding horses in the service of the Artillery, http://www.cwartillery.org/artequip.html suggests the following:
"...a battery of six light guns needed 110 horses to take the field, and an even larger number would be required for a battery of mounted artillery."
"As their lives and guns so often depended upon their horses, artillerymen were disposed to accept without excessive grumbling the regulations for their care. The bugler would sound stable call after reveille and roll, and water call after breakfast. The same routine for the horses would be repeated late in the afternoon. Morning and afternoon drill also meant a workout for the horses, after which they needed to be walked to cool down, curried, and probably watered again. There were always sick horses requiring care, and those who died requiring burial. (This last was described by John Billings, with the humor that can only be the product of a long passage of time, in his Hardtack and Coffee.)"
This website http://ehistory.osu.edu/uscw/features/regimental/artillery.cfm states the following regarding artillery forges, etc:
"A battery (the ideal battery consisted of 6 guns, but it was not uncommon to find batteries consisting of only 4 guns) was also accompanied by a forge, a wagon carrying the tents and supplies, and generally six additional caissons with reserve ammunition."
".... five artificers...."....these were the farriers, etc.....
Hope this helps!!

Turkish police clash with protesters in Hatay
- Uploaded by grimghost on Sep 11, 2013
- Views: 48
Police in Turkey have clashed with thousands of people protesting the killing of a young man by security forces during an earlier protest in the country. On Tuesday, Turkish police fired tear gas and plastic bullets at the demonstrators gathering in Istanbul to protest the killing of Ahmet Atakan, a 22-year-old protester who was killed by security forces earlier, in the southern Turkish city of Antakya in Hatay Province. The protesters rallied on the outskirts of Taksim Square and shouted anti-government slogans, including "Taksim will be the graveyard of fascism," AFP reported. Clashes were also reported during Atakan's funeral in Hatay. In addition, the protesters staged another demonstration in the Turkish capital, Ankara. According to a report by the Dogan news agency on Tuesday, Atakan was killed after being hit in the head by a tear gas canister fired by Turkish security forces during a protest to denounce violence carried out by government forces, which had already left a 14-year-old boy, Berkin Elvan, in a coma since June. Elvan had also been hit with a gas canister. A peaceful sit-in back in June aimed at saving Istanbul's central Gezi Park from being razed prompted a violent police response. Several people were killed and thousands injured after the protests spiraled into nationwide demos against the government.

Buju Banton awaits ruling in mistrial request
TAMPA, Fla. (AP) — A Florida juror who voted to convict Jamaican reggae singer Buju Banton on drug charges has denied improperly researching the case during trial, in spite of a weekly newspaper's report that quoted her as saying that she did.
Banton is serving a 10-year prison sentence on two drug charges. The Grammy winner faces an additional five years on a related gun possession charge, but his resentencing hearing was postponed to investigate the report of juror misconduct.

Suggested Message: "Please support the Health Care Conscience Rights Act (H.R. 940) introduced by Rep. Diane Black (R-TN) on March 4, and urge the inclusion of this bill in must-pass legislation. Government must not force Americans to violate their religious and moral beliefs on respect for life when they provide health care or sponsor or purchase health coverage. The Administrations contraceptive mandate forces health coverage to include sterilization and contraceptives, including drugs that can cause an abortion, even when employers and employees have moral or religious objections.
When: Please contact your Representative and two Senators today!
The introduction of H.R. 940 was welcomed by both Archbishop William Lori, Chairman of the bishops Ad Hoc Committee on Religious Liberty, and Cardinal Sean OMalley, Chairman of the bishops Committee on Pro-Life Activities. In a March 8 letter, Cardinal OMalley urged Members to support H.R. 940, and help incorporate its policy into upcoming must-pass legislation. See: nchla.org/datasource/idocuments/OMalleyLttr030813.pdf. In an earlier letter to Congress, Archbishop Lori explained why conscience protection provisions like those found in H.R. 940 are needed. See: nchla.org/datasource/idocuments/LoriLttr021513.pdf.
For a Fact Sheet on H.R. 940, see: nchla.org/datasource/idocuments/HCCRAfactsheet.pdf
Under the new health care law, the U.S. Department of Health and Human Services (HHS) requires most health plans to cover preventive services for women, including services that many citizens find objectionable for moral and religious reasons. These objectionable services include sterilization, FDA-approved birth control (such as the IUD, Depo-Provera, morning-after pills, and the abortion-inducing drug Ella), and education and counseling to promote these to all women of reproductive capacity, including minor girls. The HHS mandate allows only a very narrow exemption for a religious employer.
On February 1, HHS released a new proposed rule that goes into greater detail on the accommodation but continues to allow only a very narrow exemption, chiefly aimed at what it calls houses of worship. Other religious organizations offering education, health care and charitable services to all in need do not qualify for the exemption. There is no exemption or delay for individuals, or for businesses owned and operated by individuals with moral or religious objections.

College Protocols, Policies, and Procedures
What are the College Protocols, and why do we need them?
The College Protocols are not new policies invented out of whole cloth by the dean. The Protocols are guidelines that the Dean's Office develops in order to implement the Faculty Handbook.
Sometimes the Dean's Office has to alter the College Protocols in order to reflect Faculty Handbook changes and new administrative practices. For example, when the Faculty Handbook added "Lecturer" as a new faculty category, the Protocols had to be updated. As another example, when PeopleAdmin came on-line, hiring procedures described in the Protocols had to be updated to reference PeopleAdmin. Sometimes the Protocols merely restate university policies, as in the case of the rules for paying independent contractors or signing contracts.

Dear Apple.
iTunesU should be something of an easy sell. However, iTunesU is not KeyPointDemoU or RacistJokesU. You failed horribly at the Monday night seminar. The prerehearsed to within a SteveJobsian inch of its life presentation was bordering on bad with the cliche mobile pulling over time as "students" in the video clips aptly repeated the IMC keywords "It creates value for my classes" to "It aids my flexible learning lifestyle" ain't the language.
iTunesU is an RSS feed podcast aggregator platform. Sell it as such, and I'll listen. Put on 90 minutes of craptacular, and I'll leave early. Particularly during the part where your presenters decided to sell their content by making racists remarks about Nigeria. That was unacceptable

I bought some fabric from fabric.com and after i washed it I looked really bad. So i called them asking if maybe I did something wrong, and the lady felt so bad she said to keep it and she credited my account!!
So Nice! totally didnt expect that! I will be returning for sure to them!!

What's weird is that I just had my first bad experience with them. I've ordered LOTS from them and had my share of mistakes, but they've always gone above and beyond w/ customer service. My latest order contained a fabric that I didn't order (and was missing what I DID order). I emailed them and got a form letter response telling me that since I didn't want a particular fabric they sent I'd be refunded when I sent the fabric back. It's ugly fabric so I'm not keeping it (and no, I didn't tell them it was ugly...lol), which means hauling a 4 yr old and 2 stroller-bound tots in continued blizzard conditions to the UPS store to return. Didn't answer my inquiry regarding the missing fabric. Didn't apologize. Nada. I was really bummed, since I've always bragged up their customer service.
At least your post makes me hopeful that this was just an isolated incident. I do love Fabric.com....usually.

i think that a phone call will get you more results than an email. I believe the person who answers emails may not be allowed to fix mistakes? not sure..
I also emailed them about this and never got a response. I called and was helped immediately. So make a phone call I bet it will help.
Ugh, I ordered some fabric from Fabric.com on Jan 28th. It sat in Louisiana for a week "due to inclement" weather. Not fabric.com's fault clearly. Hopefully I'll get my fabric tomorrow or Thursday.
Eve, UPS will pick up. You should call and schedule a pick up so you won't have to drag it out yourself. Fabric.com should have sent you a return label to print out and they will pay for the return - or at least they should since they sent you fabric you didn't order. That's what they did for me when they sent me fabric I didn't order. Never did get the fabric I did order. I had to settle for something else since they were out of what I wanted.
I've ordered from them lots and even wrote great reviews, but their service has been going downhill, at least for me. I've even written and asked them about it. It's kind of sad. They used to be my favorite place to order from. Not anymore. They make too many mistakes.

RocknRoll, you are absolutely right that a phone call would probably be more effective. With 3 very loud, rambunctious little boys in the house, I usually try to resolve non-critical issues like this via email...lol. And I've never required a phone call before. That's what kind of took me off guard. I've always received personal, apologetic, and helpful responses. And I've NEVER had to send fabric back. Not that I balk at that (well, aside from the NUMBER of wrong fabrics I get), it's just new.
frame, I was under the impression you had to pay for UPS pickup. Perhaps I misunderstood their policy and fees?
EveS, I had to return something too (got 1 yd of fabric when I should have had 2 and paid for 2) recently and had to take it to the UPS drop location also, no pickup.
------My sewing blog: weebeaks.blogspot.com
I guess I got lucky and Fabric.com paid for UPS to pick up from me. It's the least they could do since it was their mistake. I would call them (Fabric.com) and insist on it.
ETA: I mean, isn't that why you shop online? - So you don't have to leave the house in bad weather with your children. Why should you have to leave the house because of Fabric.com's mistake? It would be different if you changed your mind and decided you didn't want the fabric, but THEY sent the wrong thing. You shouldn't be inconvenienced by that. At least that's my feelings on the subject. :) -- Edited on 2/9/11 0:02 AM --
I've ordered from them many times and have always had excellent service when there has been a problem.....and I've had several. I always call rather than email.
My most recent order was fine except for one flawed piece which they replaced immediately, with a piece off of the same bolt evidently because it had the same flaw! Since they told me to keep the first one I didn't complain because I now have enough yardage to work around it!
Another piece in the same order was fine but it was UGLY. The colors weren't even close to the description or picture. I've never asked to return something to them just because I didn't like it but this was an exceptionally UGLY waste of money. The service agent was extremely nice and sent a UPS postage paid return label within minutes. They don't credit your account until they get the mdse. back but that's understandable.
I order from them with no hesitation because I know that they will do the right thing. I have noticed a decline in fabric quality or more likely, seconds sold as first quality. I order based on that knowledge. If it's a critical purchase I take my business elsewhere.
------She looks for wool and flax And works with her hands in delight. Proverbs 31:13 NAS
i think their "clearance" stuff is seconds and not so good but if you get the fabric early in the season you can get some decent things.

This is why no-one trusts the media. I doubt even the most fervent anti-CC campaigner believes this to be true. And while I don't think climate change itself is a hoax, I'm far less convinced that it's a death sentence (e.g. as far as I know we've had higher levels of CO2 in the atmosphere in the past without all life dying).

TORONTO - Trying to address their bullpen and trying to insure that they won't get left out in the cold when the trading deadline passes on Sunday afternoon, the Rangers sent RHP Tommy Hunter and INF Chris Davis to Baltimore for RHP Koji Uehara.
The Rangers will, in all likelihood, control Uehara, 36, for 2012. He has a vesting option in his contract that kicks in at 55 appearances. He is currently at 43. The vesting option is for $4 million. The Rangers will receive "significant" cash from Baltimore in the deal.
Uehara is in his third season in the majors and is having his best year to date. He has a 1.72 ERA for Baltimore in 47 innings and has 62 strikeouts to just eight walks. He has allowed six homers in those 47 innings.
Uehara leads AL relievers in opponents' on-base percentage at .191 and opponents' batting average at .152.

Pitt men's basketball notebook: Wichita State hits 55 early, wins with ease
ACC Videos
SALT LAKE CITY — Wichita State coach Gregg Marshall said the Shockers jokingly talked about how the first team to score 55 points, Wichita State or Pitt, would win their NCAA West Region second-round game.
The Shockers got there with 5:19 remaining on a dunk by Cleanthony Early. The Panthers finished with 55 points.
It's no wonder Marshall said defense was the story of Wichita State's 73-55 victory Thursday.
It marked Pitt's second-lowest first-half total (21), its second-lowest shooting percentage (35.2 percent) and second-lowest point total — only Notre Dame held Pitt to fewer points (42) this season.
Wichita State also won the rebounding battle, 37-32, with 11 offensive boards. Pitt shot 5.9 percent (1 of 17) from 3-point range.
It marked the 17th time Wichita State held an opponent to fewer than 60 points this season. The Shockers are 15-2 when doing so.
"We win by shooting 39 percent," Marshall said, "but to hold them to 35 percent and outrebound them by five and to hold them to 6 percent at the 3-point line speaks to the rebounding ability and the defensive intensity and passion."
• Wichita State had 10 steals against Pitt, and is 7-1 this season when it has double-digit steals. Six of those came in the first half. Sophomore Tekele Cotton, who coveredTray Woodall, had five steals. "He's got a big heart," Wichita State guard Malcolm Armstead said of Cotton. "He's strong, athletic, stronger than he looks, maybe like a free safety. He can guard positions one through four. And he has a big heart, and his desire and will to defend is crazy."
• Marshall was asked about the magnitude of a Missouri Valley Conference team beating a Big East opponent so soundly, given that eight teams from the latter conference were selected for the NCAA Tournament. "Well, you know, we lost a team in our league to the new Big East just (Wednesday), so maybe we should be the ones going to the Big East," Marshall said, noting that MVC champion Creighton, along with Atlantic 10 schools Butler and Xavier, is leaving to join the seven Catholic schools. "I'm not advocating any of that. I just thought our guys were very focused and were ready to play against a great team."
• Pitt has an 0-5 record as a No. 8 seed since the NCAA Tournament expanded in 1985.

Redefining the value of square footage.
The story:
The contributions of architect Ross Chapin and developer Jim Soules have helped revolutionize the rules for homebuilding in the Northwest. By designing master-planned communities of small homes that facilitate (and even encourage) daily interaction and interdependence between neighbors, Chapin and Soules have shown that well-designed density not only works, it can actually enhance a property's value. Their attractive model is bringing small homes to market in a big way.
Soules and Chapin began working collaboratively in 1996, when they formed The Cottage Company to design and build Third Street Cottages, a development that took advantage of a recently-passed zoning change in Chapin's hometown of Langley on Whidbey Island. The regulations permitted developers to double the density on standard-size single-family residential lots by building twice as many homes, if those homes were each smaller than 1,000 square feet. The resulting Third Street Cottages were beautiful small homes with thoughtful features like corner windows and 9-foot ceilings to make the most of the space inside. And they were clustered around a common open space, encouraging daily neighborly interactions in a way that struck a chord with many visitors. They quickly sold out, and both Soules and Chapin went on to build dozens of appealing compact homes around the region, both separately and together. Ross Chapin Architects is currently working with developers located in several states on pocket neighborhood projects. The Cottage Company, now under the leadership of Linda Pruitt, has continued with innovative housing developments in the Pacific Northwest.
The duo has attracted media attention from many who say they are challenging a dominant preference for large homes. But Soules doesn't believe that a preconceived bias toward big houses is actually as strong as hearsay suggests. "What's the most expensive and smallest home in Seattle? A houseboat," he says. "You can pay a million dollars for 800 square feet … there is a segment of the market that seeks a well designed, compact home."
And zoning that enables smaller homes benefits lower-income populations as well. Chapin says his firm is currently working on three compact neighborhoods that are part of affordable housing projects: a cluster of 14 homes in partnership with Habitat for Humanity; a project in South Whidbey Island in partnership with Saratoga Community Housing, and a 31-home project in partnership with the City of Calistoga, California.
The Cottage Company were among the first in recent years to get the chemistry of compact home design so exactly right, but the movement is catching on around the region. For example, a feature in the summer edition of AIA Seattle's Forum magazine examines several new compact communities from Walker Architecture (and developer Peter Erickson), gProjects, b9 Architects and Arellano/Christofides. And Chapin is currently working on a book that will examine the history and future of compact community developments: Pocket Neighborhoods: Creating Small-Scale Communities in a Large-Scale World, to be released by Taunton Press.
Why it's Worldchanging:
Truth be told, the idea of 1000 to 1500-square foot homes is not a brand-new innovation. Rather, that's the size home that many of our parents and grandparents grew up in, and the size that many people still use today. But here in the U.S., inexpensive suburban land, cheap fuel for commuting, vertical emulation and other factors have contributed to an enormously swollen idea of what a "dream home" looks like. Now, economic and social changes are driving a turn in the tide. By creating small homes that work better for their inhabitants than large homes with wasted space and huge appetites for energy, Chapin and Soules have broken ground on the resurgence of a new ideal, and have proven to other developers that there is a huge market for smart compact housing. We believe that successful and sold-out executions like The Cottage Company's Third Street Cottages and Danielson Grove will convince municipal planning departments around the country to reconsider outdated zoning codes and take one big step toward enabling livable, walkable, dense and more sustainable communities.

Diving around Nusa Penida
Best in the area
What we say:
Crystal Bay, Manta Point and SD Point are the best known of Nusa Penida's dive spots. Manta Point is known for, well, manta rays but as was very clearly explained to us, there is nothing else here to see — so if the manta rays are out of town there is no point getting in the water. Crowd pleasing Crystal Bay is famous for sunfish (mola molas).
The waters off Penida are known for their strong currents, and if you're learning, Bali is more suited to absolute beginners.
There is one dive shop on Nusa Penida, the Czech-run Mutiara Nusa (see the accommodation section for details). Otherwise you'll need to organise your diving from Nusa Lembongan or Bali.
You can see a map of the Nusa Penida dive sites here.

Walking by Club Monaco the other week I spied a olive scarf in the window that got me intrigued. This past weekend I took a look, and boy was that a mistake! There were abundant amounts of stuff I liked. I went back today to assess the situation, and try on a crap load of stuff. I always feel a bit bad when I do this, because sales associates seem to get a bit excited, thinking I'm going on a shopping spree or something. Since Club Monaco's website doesn't provide pictures of everything (hurry up online shopping!) I took my old camera with me to take some fitting room photos. I apologize for the quality. The lighting was not too great, and I didn't want to draw attention to myself using the flash. I almost don't want to post them on my blog because the quality is so poor... oh well.
Oops- I forgot how to turn off the flash on this camera! Correct colours at least...
They had the cutest sleepwear- cami's and little shorts and a onesie. Unfortunately they were not flattering at all. A real shame, because on the hangers they are so cute.
I was hoping this sweater would be more like this sweater, but it just didn't do it for me. $129
I really like this hat. $69
This blouse is good in theory, but there are gathers at the cuff which make rolling the sleeves very difficult. $129
These sweatpants were cute- they even had back pockets which is always more flattering- but $80 for sweatpants I can not do.
These scarves are so cozy, and the colour (horribly represented in this photo) is a perfect olive green. Pricey at $98
Sorry this photo is a bit useless, but they are black shearling fingerless gloves. I kind of love them. Pricey at $98
This silk blouse is a winner- I love pocket blouses. $119
Some other things that caught my eye:
$148-ish I think
Can anyone out there tell me how much these things run in the USA? Our dollar is so good right now, I think a shopping trip to Seattle might be in order.

Award-winning mixologist and co-founder of Maison Ikkoku, Ethan created "The Jewel Of Pangaea" which listed on The Asia's Most Expensive Cocktails and selling on the menu for S$32k a glass in Pangaea Singapore
5 quick questions with Ethan.
1. What was your journey like to become a Mixologist?
It was tough initially, and is hard for people to accept a bar which only does hand-crafted cocktails. After spending 3 yrs of developing cocktails culture in Singapore, nowadays pub crawlers are more knowledgeable about cocktails. People are asking "can you make me a good Smoked Negroni?" or "Give me a Vesper level 4!". Singapore has carved for itself a remarkable cocktail scene in Asia now, and is booming.
2. Why did you decide this was the craft you wanted to master?
To me, making delicious drinks is like cooking with heart-when you're passionate about it, you will deliver the best. My motivation: for no one to leave their drinks unfinished when they leave Maison Ikkoku Bar. This constantly reminds me that I must keep improving and making tastier drinks.
3. What difficulties have you faced in pursuing the mastery of your craft?
Transforming the most disgusting awful ingredients to tasty!
4. How necessary was becoming a businessman to pursue your passion for mixology as a craft?
Well, first you need the passion for the craft and to master the skills, then you need good business to maintain your passion.
5. Share one thought on creativity in your craft that others often overlook.
My thought? Break the traditional classic and create new flavour, the classic of tomorrow.
Learn more about Ethan at the next Creative Mixer.
Creative Mixer brings together creatives, hackers, entrepreneurs into a single space to redefine creativity.
The aim of the event is to encourage collaboration between entrepreneurs, developers and creatives in design, photography, film, architecture, animation/illustration and writing. The event will be attended by at least 100 opinion leaders and professionals in these industries aged 25-40.
Register here.
Registration includes food & a bottle of beer.

For some, the first sign of spring is the sight of the first robin. To others, it is the emergence of the first tulips.
My signs are different. Spring is teased by pitchers and catchers reporting to Spring Training. As the snow melts, teams evaluate the emergence of rookies and the fading of aging stars. For me, the first day of spring is not March 21, but Opening Day.
Since 1982, the magic of spring in Minnesota has been dulled by the reality of the Metrodome. The water stained yellow roof, the plastic grass, the ugly cheap baggie, and the misaligned seats all conspired against it. While spring and, eventually, summer arrived in the rest of the country, we were subjected to a pale, less substantial imitation. We existed in a faux spring, without the resonance of the real thing.
It wasn't just spring and summer that were dulled by the presence of the Metrodome, but baseball itself. Even in the championship years of 1987 and 1991, the Twin Cities has never felt like a baseball town. Excitement at the event, surely. But I've never felt that it truly loved baseball. How could that love survive the dump that fans were subjected to every game? We were treated to a cheap plastic version of the sport. Consequently, I have never had much regard for the baseball that was played here. I've always felt like an outsider. A stranger in a strange land.
Since the construction began on Target Field, I've felt a growing excitement at the possibilities that it presented. I've also had a small germ of fear lurking in the back of my mind. What if all of my anticipation led to disappointment? What if it wasn't the ballpark that I hoped it could be? Was I expecting too much?
On Thursday, I attended the game against the Red Sox. As I strolled through the plaza, the years of Metrodome misery were lifted from me. Target Field is everything that the Metrodome was not.
Beautiful. From the sandstone facade to the pine trees in center field to the view of the Minneapolis skyline in right field, Target Field is visually stunning. We had a bright blue sky and a breeze swirling inside the ballpark.
Comfortable. From what I've been able to tell, there might not be a truly bad seat in the house. You can watch the game from the wide concession areas. The scoreboards are state of the art and packed with information.
Authentic. As I watched the wind push a fly ball just over the corner of the left field fence for a home run, everything changed. I had my first spring of the past nearly thirty years. After years of being an interloper, I finally felt at home.
But I'm still rooting for the Yankees.

|Differences in use of health services between White and African American children enrolled in Medicaid in North Carolina.
MedLine Citation:
|PMID: 12710799 Owner: NLM Status: MEDLINE
|OBJECTIVES: Racial differences in health status and use of health services persist in the United States and are not completely explained by differences in socioeconomic status. This study examines differences in use of health services between White and African American children enrolled in Medicaid, controlling for other factors that affect service use. We make comparisons for use of primary preventive services, diagnosis and treatment of selected common childhood illnesses, and Medicaid expenditures. METHODS: We linked Medicaid enrollment records, Medicaid paid claims data, and data on use of child WIC services to birth certificates for North Carolina children born in 1992 to measure use of health services and Medicaid expenditures by race for children ages 1, 2, 3, and 4. Logistic and Tobit regression models were used to estimate the independent effect of race, controlling for other variables such as low birth weight, WIC participation, and mother's age, education, and marital status. Since all children enrolled in Medicaid are in families of relatively low income, racial differences in socioeconomic status are partially controlled. RESULTS: African American children had consistently lower Medicaid expenditures and lower use of health services than did White children, after statistically controlling for other maternal and infant characteristics that affect health service use, including child WIC participation. For example, total annual Medicaid expenditures were 207-303 dollars less for African American children than for White children, controlling for other variables. African America children were significantly less likely to receive well-child and dental services than were White children. CONCLUSIONS: African American children enrolled in Medicaid use health services much less than White children, even when controlling for socioeconomic status and other factors that affect service use. Linking state administrative databases can be a cost-effective way of addressing important issues such as racial disparities in health service use.

Banlieue Rouge was a punk rock band from Montréal, Québec in the 1990s. It remains the biggest French punk rock band from Québec province.
Banlieue Rouge was formed in 1989 in Longueuil, a Montréal suburb. Heavily influenced by French punk rock bands such as Bérurier Noir, they started with a drum machine, which was eventually replaced by Jeff on drums.
Banlieue Rouge was: *Safwan (vocals) *Sylvain (guitar) *Xavier (bass) *Jeff (drum)
In 1999, after four full-length albums (plus one live and one best-of) and ten years of touring in America and Europe, the band finally broke up. Some members went on to form Akuma, an angrier, louder hardcore punk band with bilingual (French/English) lyrics.
"Banlieue Rouge" means "Red Suburb". On their debut album, En Attendant Demain, it is explained that this refers to their status as a "a suburb of the megacity of pop music, unknown to the masses." The "red" part of the name could refer either to a violent nature or political leanings.

I was a fool
pure fool
for telling you.
It ruined
I took it too far,
and I'm sorry.
I thought you
should know,
I thought you
had a right to know.
I thought I
should let you know,
but I was so wrong,
and I'm sorry.
I ruined everything
between us,
the laughs,
the fun,
but now that you know
it's never going back
to the way things were
and I'm sorry.
By telling you
I ruined
And now, for
I'm sorry.

Ya, I knew about ElCamino's Wifi PI being pulled. But there is nothing else out there to initiate a Wifi connection? I hadn't used it in a while, but the last time I played with ElCamino's PI, it didn't seem to work reliably...so I didn't spend too much time with it.
I just want a skin button to cause WLAN stack to attempt a connection now. I would press this when I enable wifi tethering on my iphone. Instead of waiting for some "random" amount of time for Windows XP to scan for available WLANs again.

TGIF, WG2E-Land!
We've cussed and discussed Ebook Price Points a bunch here on The WG2E. From going FREE with an Ebook (The First One is On Me strategy and Ridin' The Free-Way) to the 99 Cent Price Point to Boxed Set pricing and beyond. (***Note: If you're new to The WG2E, you can search for any of those key terms on our site and pull up a variety of posts on each strategy.)
Now then…after just releasing my 29th product in my Indie Epublishing, multi-media empire – Cozy Cash Mysteries Boxed Set #1 (9 books for just $4.99), let's take a look at Ebook Price Points from a new angle.
What can happen to your income using a variety of Ebook Price Points?
Here's my pricing breakdown:
1 – FREE Ebook (my debut release – Bootscootin' Blahniks – is FREE on all platforms all the time, since September 2011…I call it my First One is On Me strategy)
13 – 99 Cent Ebooks
3 – $1.99
8 – $2.99
1 – $4.99
3 – Audio Books (from $13.96 – $24.95…prices set by Audible)
With this pricing point variety, I'm not only pulling in an average of $5,000 per month (some months three times that, others a little under that), I'm also continuously attracting new readers – approximately 5,000+ new readers per month.
Here are my theories as to why Ebook Price Point Variation works:
1. Using my FREE Ebook, I gain around 5,000 new readers per month. That's the number of people who download just that one book each month. And, most readers new to my D. D. Scott-ville world begin with the book that started it all for me and introduces many of the characters who are still going strong in my 29th release.
2. Once I've hooked those new readers with that First One is On Me strategy, I make it a Snickers Bar price point (or the price of a cup of coffee at McDonalds) to keep on reading my books with all of my 99 Cent Ebooks. (***Note: The 99 Cent price point keeps most of my books high up in the sales rank algorithms on most platforms because that price point still moves a ton of Ebooks/downloads. It's still great for visibility as are my $1.99 titles.)
3. I price my non-fiction, on-writing books at $2.99, which is still about half the price of what most peeps charge for Indie Epublished non-fiction and waaay under Tradipub non-fiction prices of $9.99 and up.
4. I've done 3 Boxed Sets now, treating my readers to another huge price break if they go right from my First One is On Me to the complete set of any series. My Boxed Sets are priced between $2.99 and $4.99, for between 4 books and 9 books. (***Note: Boxed Sets are my museum gem quality fortune makers – averaging between $100-$200 per day.)
Basically, what you want to try and do is balance your price points so that you're getting both great visibility (which the lower prices and the bargain priced Boxed Sets give you) and great income (each price point at $2.99 or above gets you the 70% royalty versus the 35%).
There you have it…Using a Variety of Price Points to Build an Indie Epublishing Empire that can give you a fabulous yearly income!!!
Share with us your thoughts on my pricing strategy as well as let us know what you're doing to use Ebook Price Points to balance out both Visibility and Income…

If Neils Miller doesn't have a statue in Appleton, Wisconsin, he should. You'll be hard pressed to find someone who has had a larger impact on the welding industry than Mr. Miller. Back in 1929, he saw a need for a small, affordable arc welder that would operate on the type of electricity readily available in rural Wisconsin. Using American ingenuity, he cobbled together scrap metal, core and coil materials and hammered out that first welder in his basement. Six short years later, Miller Electric Mfg. Co. produced an industry-changing industrial welder and the rest is history.
Throughout the 40's, Miller's machines powered war efforts in the shipyards and defense plants. In the 50's, Miller played a key role in the construction of most major planes, jets, fighters and missiles. Companies like Boeing, Cessna, Lockheed, Douglas all used Miller machines in their factories. The 1970's brought the introduction of the Millermatic machines; the first power source with a built-in wire feeder.
Today, Miller Electric continues their dominance in the marketplace with machines like the Millermatic 211 and the Dynasty 200 DX, Auto-darkening welding helmets, and the Diversion 180 AC/DC TIG Welder. Miller's full line of welding machines and welding accessories give their loyal customers plenty of reasons to "Bleed Blue."

Bibles Seized in Malaysia for Using 'Allah' to Refer to God
Written by Mong Palatino On 7 January 2014 @ 4:11 am | 11 Comments
In East Asia, English, Law, Malaysia, Religion, Weblog
More than 300 bibles were seized in the office of the Bible Society of Malaysia during a raid [1] conducted by the Selangor Islamic Religious Department or Jais which wanted to enforce a law that prohibits non-Muslims from using the word Allah in their religious publications. Allah is used to refer to God in the Bahasa translation of the bible.
The Non-Islamic Religious (Control of Propagation Among Muslims) Enactment 1988 listed 25 words and phrases which non-Muslims cannot use. A few months ago, Malaysia's Court of Appeals ruled [2] that a Catholic paper cannot use the word 'Allah' to refer to God because it might create confusion among Muslims.
The issue sparked an intense debate in Malaysia which is a Muslim-majority country. About 10 percent of the population are Christians who have been using [3] the term Allah to refer to God in their religious publications and rituals for many years already.
Despite the court ruling, a Catholic priest declared that he will still use 'Allah' in the church service which enraged [4] some Muslim groups. The Klang Muslim Solidarity Secretariat, a coalition of Muslim NGOs, have been holding street protests [5] to denounce the use of Allah by non-Muslims.
The Twitter photo below shows some progressive Muslims showing solidarity to Christians after Muslim groups vowed to hold bigger protests.

— JeraldJoseph (@jeraldjoseph2) January 5, 2014 [7]
Meanwhile, the National Unity Consultative Council has been working on a proposed 10-point solution to settle the issue peacefully. One of the proposals is to put a 'Christian publication' label on bibles and a cross [8] sign so as to not confuse Muslims.
June H.L. Wong thinks that an international panel [9] can help Malaysia resolve this controversial matter:
…if we can't resolve this internally by ourselves, perhaps we should seek an international panel of eminent experts to act as mediators to help us get out of this impasse rationally and equitably.
There is no shame in seeking outside help in times of crisis and if this isn't a crisis, I don't know what is.
Several Chinese youth organizations urged [10] all parties to be tolerant and respectful:
In a pluralistic country like ours, all parties need to continue being tolerant and respectful of and appreciate each other. We also call on both sides to actively contribute to talks to work towards finding a solution to this problem on the basis of fairness and harmony.
Melati Timur does not support the argument that the use of Allah by Christians would weaken [11] the faith of Muslims:
Why is the Muslim faith deemed the more fragile, more in need of protection? Aren't we told all the time how superior this faith is, this faith of the majority and political elites? If it is so superior, why is it that our confusion is considered so inevitable compared to people of other faiths? Are you saying there is actually something wrong with our faith, something so close to the surface that the mere use of an Arabic word that means God by Christians will reveal all and thus turn us away from Islam in droves?
Lucia Lai also doesn't believe that Muslims will be confused [12] if Christians would use the term Allah:
no. 1: does muslim goes to sunday church to listen to their sermons? if no, how will they get confused?
no. 2: even if muslim does hear sermons with 'allah' in it, why you think they can get confused? simple! it is because you don't trust your own muslim brethren – you think their faith is so weak that just listening to it, they will get confused or get converted
Marina Mahathir, the daughter of former Prime Minister Mahathir Mohamad, expressed solidarity to Christians by visiting a church service:
At the Our Lady of Lourdes Church in Klang to show what 'Islam is a religion of peace' really means..
— Marina Mahathir (@netraKL) January 5, 2014 [13]
anas zubedy tries to probe [14] deeper as to why some Muslims are not comfortable with Christians using the word Allah:
Their apprehension is in a sense understandable, given the attempts by some Christian missionaries during the colonial epoch to impose their religion upon Muslims and people of other faiths. Even in the post-colonial period this has continued albeit in different forms and through different channels.

The Morgan Education Foundation is making a final push to fund the new Trojan Century Center. They are beginning a two-week campaign to reach out to the residents of the county and alumni of Morgan High School. The foundation believes that there are many that benefited from an excellent education in Morgan that will want to support the Trojan Center, particularly on the hundredth anniversary of the High School. The campaign will last two weeks and is targeting to raise $100,000. This should bring the foundation to the necessary funding for the facility to be completed. "Our goal is to reach out to individual, to alumni, to families… and ask for a commitment of $1,000, " said Kelly Wright Morgan Education Foundation president. He continued, "[It is] great opportunity to share in helping to build this facility, not just a mediocre facility, but a facility… that has a classrooms to teach, that has the equipment…everything that would make this first class."
The overall target is to have donations of $1,000 from 100 individuals, but any donations will be accepted. Donations can be made via credit card or check and can be made in one lump sum or in payments over time. Information about how to donate can be found on the school district website or by calling the school district.
The foundation received $11,000 in pledges in the meeting. $10,000 from Operation Graduation and $1,000 for the MHS coaches.

I purchased online a sewing machine advertised as "Singer 15-88", (I am the happy owner of another more common 15-88).......after many hours of internet research it turned out that the new machine is a so called 15-88 "nickel plated".
Machine serial number: Y8710408
Machine serial number: Y9205631
The straight stitch machine works properly and is similar in weight and design to my other Singer 15-88, the foot attachments and treadle desk are also compatible, except for the stitch lenght selector that is nickel plated.
Do somebody knows how do the stitch lenght selector works in this model that is different from my other Singer 15-88, it appears to be obstructed because haven't been able to change it so i can use my beloved "Adjustable zigzagger" attachment....
Thank you in advance for any tips

------Treadle and hand crank Singer 15-88 / Singer 15-88 (nickel plated), Alfa Next 30
Are you saying that the length selector lever won't move up and down? If so, I would guess that you have to get some lubricant into the moving parts and let the oil do it's thing. You should be able to remove the screw knob to the left of the lever, and remove the screw at the top of the lever slot plate, and get into the mechanism with your oiler.
------A sewing machine is just a welder for textiles.
Congrats on your new machine! I have a 15-91 nickel plate. To change the stitch length you loosen the thumb screw that is on the left of the stitch regulating lever. Move the lever to where you think it should be and then move the thumbscrew up to align with it. You don't have the numbers marked as usual, but you will see it in the window. -- Edited on 6/3/14 9:46 PM --
That sounds right to me.
Astrox, if the method clotheshorse recommends works, how is it different from your other 15-88 machine? Because that's how that one works, too.
??? -- Edited on 6/3/14 11:27 PM --
I think they both work the same too, even though one plate is black in color and the other Silver color. There is more than one plate on there though, there is the one you see on the outside, and then a flat inner one, underneath the outer one, with slots cut out of it. .When you loosen and move the screw up wards, it slides the inner plate. If you got the screw part all the way at the bottom, for longest stitch, you don't really need to change it back and forth for shorter stitches at all, you can just move the stitch lever instead to where ever you want. But of course if the stitch lever is more that half way up, you are probably moving backwards at that point , and going in reverse.
When you move the screw, and the inner plate moves, and if it's got numbers printed on it, unlike the machine that has a black plate instead, then the numbers are probably just printed on that inner plate and sliding in turn with it, and move under that little square cut out. So, if when you move the lever you get short and long stitches and going forwards and back wards, that is good. But if you move the screw which is supposed to move the inner plate too, and you don't, and you just don't see some number change, under the square cut out, then maybe you need to take it off and grease and oil it under there. Only you know, as it's in front of you.
Thank you for the tips.....I will update after i test again the machine.
One more thing that maybe should be mentioned:
If you want to change the position of the stop plate, by loosening and moving the screw on the lower left, you will have to move the lever up first. It will be very difficult to move the screw unless the lever is out of the way first.
I could remove the stitch length embossed "nickel plate" (the screws were hard to take out).....
under it was an extremely rusted wheel that has numbers printed on it from 6 to 30.
Since it was so rusty there was no chance it could slide, I will leave the disc a few days in oil and will remove the massive amount of lint and old grease attached to the inside mechanism of the lever......with some luck I might be able to have some more control of the stitch length as clotheshorse and beaturbo sugested....
