Hands-on: Google Nexus Q review
The Google Nexus Q is a music streaming device that promises to get music from the cloud to your ears in your home as long as you have an Android phone to control it and some speakers to plug in to it, but what's it like up close and personal? We took a closer look at Google I/O to find out.
The 4.6-inch diameter sphere has no controls aside from volume, with everything being done through an Android app.
The Nexus Q doesn't have built-in speakers either, nor a screen; you simply plug in speakers or your TV and Hi-Fi through connectors on the back for audio or use the HDMI connector for full 1080p video. Google does the rest.
Feedback is given through 32 LEDs that ring Nexus Q and they shift and change colour in time to your music. It's all very quaint if not a little cool.
Choosing music requires you to load an app on your tablet or phone, which is then paired to the Q using a built-in NFC reader, so simply tapping the two devices together will link them.
Choosing what you want to watch or hear is simple, and uses Android Jelly Bean's built-in media apps - it will work with Android Gingerbread devices, but you will need a Jelly Bean tablet or smartphone as the main point of call initially.
To display them on the Q, you simply select a "beam" icon at the top of the screen. After a little bit of buffering (in some cases, for high-def video, quite a bit of buffering) your content appears in what Google says is full 1080p resolution.
Connection wise aside from the built in amp (25W class D) allowing you to plug in your own speakers you get Micro HDMI, Optical audio (S/PDIF), 10/100BASE-T Ethernet (RJ45), Micro AB USB (for service and support) and Banana jack speaker outputs for left and right audio.
In practice at Google I/O and it all works well. The integration with Android is impressive - there's even a "party mode" whereby your friends can all control music playlists, although we suspect that move will only result in plenty of heated debate.
Under the black shell is a full-blown Android ICS device (note, not Jelly Bean) but don't get too excited: there are no apps and no way to run the Nexus Q without a secondary control device. Not even from a computer.
In use the Google Q is a strange device. It is far more expensive than the Apple TV, which does almost exactly the same thing and not as comprehensive as Sonos either. There is even concerns that the overlap with Google's own Google TV could confuse even further.
Google did hint that it will be open to hackers, so perhaps we will eventually see it coming with full third-party app support, but for now it remains a rather odd device that doesn't quite deliver on the promise of a truly connected living room.
While you will be able to hook up multiple Nexus Q spheres around your home, for multi-room audio, it's nowhere near as slick as the Sonos, and for general features and price, the Apple TV trumps it in almost every area. Remember there is no app support at all.
While it's a bold move for Google, it seems to have missed the mark slightly, but if nothing else, it shows Google is serious about taking on Apple in the living room and that it has the urge to become a hardware partner.
The Google Nexus Q is expected to be available in the US in mid-July but Google has confirmed to Pocket-lint that there are currently no plans to launch the Nexus Q media streamer in the UK.

Article: Limited pelvic lymphadenectomy using the sentinel lymph node procedure in patients with localised prostate carcinoma: A pilot study[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The purpose of this study was to determine the potential role of the sentinel lymph node (SLN) procedure in limited lymph node dissection in patients with apparently localised prostate carcinoma. In 27 patients with organ-confined prostate cancer, a single injection of 0.3 ml/30 MBq( 99m)Tc-rhenium sulphur colloid was injected transrectally into the peripheral zone of each lobe of the prostate (total 0.6 ml/60 MBq) under ultrasound guidance. Two hours after injection, scintigraphy was performed. The first step in surgery was the detection and dissection of lymph nodes identified as SLNs. Then, standard lymphadenectomy was performed, consisting in a limited dissection that included all lymph nodes from the obturator fossa and along the external iliac vein. Lymphatic tissue along the hypogastric artery was not systematically removed, except in the presence of SLNs. Mean patient age was 66 years (48-77); the mean serum prostate-specific antigen value was 10.6 ng/ml. In a high proportion of patients (21/27, 77.8%) an SLN was located along the initial centimetres of the hypogastric artery. The second most frequent site of SLNs was in the obturator fossa (11/27 patients, 40.7%), followed by the external iliac area (5/27 patients, 18.5%). Four patients had lymph node metastases, all in SLNs: two in the hypogastric area and two in the obturator fossa. The SLN procedure revealed the individual variability in the lymphatic drainage of the prostate. The main site of SLNs was the hypogastric area, and two of the four metastatic nodes were located at this site. A limited standard pelvic lymphadenectomy, excluding the hypogastric lymph nodes, would have missed half of the lymph node metastases in this study. A radionuclide SLN procedure could assist in the correct staging of patients with early prostate cancer, especially when performing limited lymphadenectomy.European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging 07/2005; 32(6):635-40.

ABSTRACT: A 39-year-old, right-handed woman had seizures for two years which were always triggered by exposure to various types of music: the first occurred while she listened to a tune she particularly liked, Con Te Partiro, by Andrea Boccelli. Other triggering factors were various types of music such as supermarket background music and polyphonic singing or instrumental music played by family members. The seizures had a stereotyped course: she felt anxious, tearful, then occurred slight obtundation, during which she smacked her lips and moved restlessly. There was no complete loss of consciousness, but some degree of amnesia. She never experienced a generalized tonic-clonic seizure, but reported rare spontaneous feelings of déjà-vu that had begun at the same time as the induced seizures. There were no other spontaneous attacks; only one seizure was apparently provoked, not by music but by a loud background noise in her office. She was a music lover and a singer. Interictal EEG showed independent slow waves over the temporal regions. Several seizures with EEG localisation over the right temporal region were elicited after several minutes of exposure to music. Monoauricular stimulation with the same music produced a seizure when applied to the left ear but was ineffective when applied to the right ear. Ictal SPECT demonstrated right temporal hyperperfusion. MRI was normal. On high dose of carbamazepine, seizure frequency decreased. The addition of topiramate resulted in full seizure control. Musicogenic epilepsy is a rare form of reflex epilepsy. Pure cases, when patients do not experience unprovoked seizures, are exceptional. Our report confirms the implication of the right temporal lobe in this epilepsy.Epileptic disorders: international epilepsy journal with videotape 10/2003; 5(3):133-7. · 0.95 Impact Factor
Article: Nonvisualization of axillary sentinel node during lymphoscintigraphy: is there a pathologic significance in Breast Cancer?[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The aim of this study was to define the factors associated with nonvisualization of a sentinel node (SN) in the axilla area during preoperative lymphoscintigraphy. We retrospectively studied 332 women with T0, T1, or T2 <3-cm, N0 invasive breast cancer who underwent a sentinel lymph node biopsy procedure. All patients had intradermal and intraparenchymal injection of 37 MBq (99m)Tc-sulfur colloid in a total volume of 4 x 0.1 mL, above and around the tumor. Anterior and lateral static views were obtained a few minutes and 2-4 h after injection. Surgery was performed the next day. The SNs were localized intraoperatively with the aid of patent blue dye and using a hand-held gamma-probe. SNs were analyzed by serial sections stained with hematoxylin-eosin, with the adjacent section stained with anticytokeratin antibodies. Different parameters, such as the number of positive lymph nodes, presence of lymphovascular invasion, tumor size, tumor grade, histology (invasive vs. in situ), prior excisional biopsy, and patient age were analyzed to determine whether they had any significant correlation with nonvisualization of SNs in the axillary area. An axillary SN was successfully visualized on the preoperative lymphoscintigraphy in 302 of 332 patients (90.7%). No axillary drainage was found in 30 patients on the delayed images, even after a second injection of radiocolloid, and 5 of 30 patients showed uptake outside the axillary area. Positive nodes were identified in 86 of 302 patients (28.5%) with successful axillary drainage and in 19 of 30 patients (63.3%) with unsuccessful axillary drainage. More than 4 invaded axillary nodes (P < 0.0001) and the presence of lymphovascular invasion in the breast tumor (P = 0.004) were the only significant variables on univariate analysis, although multivariate analysis showed that only the increased number of invaded nodes was statistically significant. Patients with unsuccessful axillary mapping have an increased risk for axillary involvement.Journal of Nuclear Medicine 09/2003; 44(8):1232-7. · 6.16 Impact Factor
Article: Value of single photon emission computed tomography in the characterization of fronto-temporal dementia subtypes[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: DFT (fronto-temporal dementia) was diagnosed in 33 patients (17 males and 16 females), mean age 74.9 years, using the criteria from Neary et al. (1998). The severity of the disease was evaluated based on the presence or absence of 4 clinical groups of signs (behavioral, affective, neurological signs and language) allowing the calculation of a global clinical ratio on 20. A CT-scan and a Single Photon Emission Computed Tomography (SPECT) scan using Tc99m-ECD with quantification of brain perfusion were then performed. This study confirmed the classical clinical forms of DFT: a psycho-affective form (21%), where negative symptoms are predominant, and a behavioral disinhibited form (9%). Most of our cases (40%) corresponded to a global form. Finally we also identified a fourth clinical form: cognitive form because of predominance of language disturbances (30%). Concerning SPECT, we found 4 topographic forms: frontal global (46%), frontal superior (24%), frontal inferior (15%) and frontal unilateral (12%). In the frontal inferior form, behavioral disturbances were correlated to the intensity of frontal inferior hypoperfusion, corresponding to an orbito-frontal dysfunction. In the frontal superior form, psycho-affective disturbances (apathy) were correlated with frontal superior hypoperfusion (anterior cingulum and superior dorso-lateral cortex). Finally, in global and frontal inferior SPECT forms, language disturbances were correlated with a frontal inferior hypoperfusion (prefrontal and inferior left frontal cortex).Journal of Neuroradiology 02/2003; 30(1):37-45. · 1.75 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: Despite improved diagnostic accuracy, differentiation of dementia with Lewy bodies (DLB) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) on the basis of clinical findings remains problematic. The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the utility of technetium-99m ethyl cysteinate dimer (ECD) single-photon emission tomography (SPET) as a potential tool for the diagnosis of DLB and discrimination from AD. Cerebral perfusion patterns detected by (99m)Tc-ECD SPET were compared in patients presenting with a probable diagnosis of DLB ( n=34) or AD ( n=28). Tracer distribution was quantified using the region of interest technique in eight symmetrical paired zones and expressed as a perfusion index (ratio of mean uptake in a brain region to that in the cerebellum). Comparison of findings in the DLB and AD groups demonstrated significant differences in mean perfusion indexes in the right occipital region ( P=0.004), left occipital region ( P=0.005) and left medial temporal region ( P=0.013). Mean perfusion indexes in the right and left occipital regions were lower in DLB than in AD patients. Conversely, the mean perfusion index in the left medial temporal region was lower in AD than in DLB patients. DLB was correctly identified in 22 patients (sensitivity, 65%) while AD was correctly identified in 20 patients (specificity, 71%). In the DLB group, right and left occipital perfusion indexes were 0.95 or more in all eight non-hallucinating patients, and bilateral occipital hypoperfusion was observed in 15 of the 26 patients with visual hallucinations (57.7%). To our knowledge, this is the first study in which (99m)Tc-ECD SPET has been used exclusively for the diagnosis of DLB. The results suggest that brain perfusion scintigraphy could be helpful in distinguishing DLB from AD if diagnosis based on clinical criteria alone is difficult. The findings also support a link between visual hallucinations and structural/functional changes in the occipital region in DLB patients.European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging 11/2002; 29(10):1342-8.

ABSTRACT: Evaluation of the response to therapy is important for optimal selection of treatment strategy in patients with Hodgkin's disease (HD). Refractory disease requires intensive high-dose chemotherapy, whereas unnecessary treatment should be avoided in patients in complete remission. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the contribution of gallium-67 scintigraphy in predicting the clinical outcome in patients with HD and mediastinal involvement on the basis of scan results at the end of chemotherapy. Seventy-four patients with HD and mediastinal involvement were retrospectively investigated with 67Ga scintigraphy 72 h after injection of 220 MBq 67Ga citrate (planar and single-photon emission tomographic studies) following the completion of chemotherapy. At the same time, they all underwent computed tomography (CT). Patients were followed up for an average of 63 months (range 28-124 months). The disease status was newly diagnosed disease in 64 of the patients and relapse in 10. Systemic symptoms were absent (A) in 34 cases and present (B) in 40 cases. Forty-one patients had stage I or II disease and 33 patients had stage III or IV disease. Twenty-two patients had bulky disease on initial diagnosis. At the end of chemotherapy, all 74 patients showed regression of the mass by more than 50% (50%-100%) on CT. Patients were divided into two groups according to the positivity or negativity of the gallium scan after chemotherapy: 61 patients had negative and 13 patients had positive gallium scans. In the gallium-negative group, 19.7% of the patients relapsed and 91.8% were alive at the end of the follow-up. Relapse occurred in 20% of the patients with residual mass and in 19.6% of the patients without residual mass. In the gallium-positive group, 84.6% of the patients had recurrent disease and 61.5% were alive after intensive chemotherapy. There was a statistically significant difference in overall survival between patients with positive and patients with negative gallium results (P=0.0034). Disease-free survival differed significantly between patients with positive and patients with negative gallium scans at the end of chemotherapy (P<0.0001). The relative risk of death was 5.2 and the relative risk of relapse was 11.3 for patients with positive gallium scans, in comparison to those with negative gallium scans. The positive and negative predictive values for predicting relapse were 85% and 87%, respectively. It is concluded that even if gallium scan is performed at the end of chemotherapy, it can predict outcome. Alternative therapy may be required on the basis of gallium scan results obtained after treatment.European Journal of Nuclear Medicine 10/2001; 28(10):1482-8.

Article: [Pilot study of screening of prostate cancer by the assay of prostate specific antigen in occupational milieu].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The goal of this study was to confirm the capacity of occupational medicine to become involved in cooperative screening programs with a dosage of the PSA (Prostate Specific Antigen) determined by immunoradiometric assay. Two thousands and five hundred seventy three salaried workers in the building sector, between 50 and 65 years old, participated in this investigation. Thirty seven individual ie 1.4% had a PSA level above or equal to 10 micrograms/l. Among them, 35 were checked within three months and 17 were found to have a persistently elevated PSA level. In this subgroup 15 pathologies including two cancers were found. We observed a great variability in the results of PSA determination in the groups of individuals whose initial assay level was above or equal to 10 micrograms/l. The linear correlation coefficient between the two assays (on the same individual), carried out at a six week interval on average, was low (r = 0.52 for N = 35). In our series, 3.5% of patients followed up had undergone a rectal examination less than a year previously. Occupational medicine seems to be an efficient setting for screening intervention. However, the people mainly concerned by our study, (salaried workers seen through the physicians interviewed) did not seem very aware of this type of action.Bulletin du cancer 12/1994; 81(11):921-7. · 0.60 Impact Factor

ABSTRACT: We describe our experience using an implantable Port-A-Cath access system for intrapleural administration of gamma-interferon (gamma-IFN) in malignant mesothelioma patients. Twenty nine patients, with histologically proven malignant mesotheliomas were included in this study. To avoid complications the device was implanted in a subcutaneous pocket, and the catheter was connected via a tunnel. Also, a suction drain was installed in the pocket after placement. This procedure greatly reduced the high infection rate (64%) encountered with conventional open chest tubes. Patients' tolerance was excellent and maintenance minimal. In our opinion, the Port-A-Cath system is the most suitable device for intra-cavitary long-term therapy of malignant pleural effusions.European Respiratory Journal 11/1994; 7(10):1889-92.

Article: Incidence rate and risk factors for thyroid dysfunction during recombinant interleukin-2 therapy in advanced malignancies[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Immunotherapy using recombinant interleukin 2 (rIL-2) has been shown to induce thyroid dysfunction in some cancer patients. The purpose of the present study was to evaluate the incidence and risk factors of this adverse autoimmune response. Triiodothyronine, thyroxine and thyrotropin levels were measured serially in 146 consecutive patients treated with rIL-2 for refractory solid tumor (77 patients) or malign hemopathy (69 patients); rIL-2 was administered intravenously in 5-day cycles (18 x 10(6)-24 x 10(6) IU.m-2.day-1) either alone in 79 cases or in combination with autologous bone marrow transplantation in 26 cases, with interferon-gamma in 37 cases, with tumor necrosis factor-alpha in 13 and with cyclophosphamide in five cases. Some patients underwent more than one therapeutic protocol. Peripheral hypothyroidism was present upon entry in nine (6.2%) patients. Thyroid dysfunction appeared or worsened during rIL-2 therapy in 24 (16.4%) patients. Sixteen (10.9%) patients exhibited peripheral hypothyroidism, out of which four exhibited biphasic thyroiditis. Another five (3.4%) patients developed transient hyperthyroidism. Anomaly could not be classified in three patients. Thyroid dysfunction appeared early after one or two cycles. All surviving patients recovered. Only gender and presence of antithyroid antibody were correlated significantly with rIL-2-induced thyroid abnormalities. No correlation was found with any of the other risk factors studied, i.e. type of malignancy, rIL-2 treatment procedure, clinical efficacy, evolution of circulating lymphocyte subsets or other autoimmune antibodies. Antithyroid antibodies were detected in 60.9% of patients with this complication. Thyroid-stimulating antibodies were never detected.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)Acta endocrinologica 08/1993; 129(1):31-8. DOI:10.1530/acta.0.1290031
Article: [Surveillance of renal function by scintigraphy with 99m Tc-DMSA after a trans-ileal cutaneous ureterostomy].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The renal function of sixty one adult patients was monitored by 99mTc-DMSA renal scan after cystectomy for a malignant tumour followed by ileal conduit urinary diversion. The postoperative follow-up period was 10 years. The stenosis rate of the uretero-ileal anastomosis was 12.8% and the incidence of pyelonephritis was 8% The mean value for overall renal function and for the function of each kidney did not deteriorate significantly (p = 0.1 and p = 0.7, respectively) over time. However, 26% of kidneys evaluated at 1 year and at 5 years showed a markedly decreased uptake on the renogram. In 70% of cases, this decreased uptake was related to the development of stenosis of the uretero-ileal anastomosis or pyelonephritis. Renal function remained stable at 5 years in group A, corresponding to patients with good initial renal function (n = 22, p = 0.07), and in group B, corresponding to patients with poor initial renal function (n = 7, p = 0.9). Similarly, the function of solitary kidneys did not deteriorate over the 5-year postoperative follow-up period (n = 7, p = 0.5). The functional value of the kidneys was therefore not globally altered after ileal conduit urinary diversion. The existence of a mechanical or infectious complication should be systematically investigated in the presence of a deterioration in renal function. DMSA isotope renal scan is a complete, qualitative and quantitative, follow-up examination after this type of urinary diversion.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)Progrès en Urologie 11/1991; 1(5):871-9. · 0.66 Impact Factor
Article: Systematic Association of PAP and PSA Determinations to Bone Scintigraphy in Prostatic Cancer[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) was compared to prostatic acid phosphatase (PAP) in patients with prostatic cancer suspected to have bone metastases. Bone scans were classified according to metastatic skeletal involvement. The sensitivity of PSA in predicting the presence of metastatic disease (68%) was better than that of PAP (53%). Specificity was 79% for PSA and 90% for PAP. Thirty-five patients had a positive PSA level and a normal scintigraphy (false-positive); 14 of them had only endoscopic prostate resection. Thirty-eight patients underwent a further exploration 3-18 months later. PSA level during disease was correlated to scintigraphy in 32 of 38 patients.American Journal of Clinical Oncology 02/1988; 11 Suppl 2:S68-70.

ABSTRACT: In an immunohistochemical study 31 patients with bronchial cancer (squamous cell 9, large cell 4, small intermediate cell 11 and oat cell 7) were investigated for keratin and NSE. Keratin seems to be a valuable marker since only oat cell cancers and 45% of small intermediate cell cancers were negative. In contrast, marking with NSE seems to be non-discriminating. The low value of NSE as marker was confirmed by 133 serum NSE assays performed in 39 bronchial cancer patients. Although NSE values were significantly higher in oat cell cancer, in any given patient serum assays can, at best, detect relapses.Revue de Pneumologie Clinique 02/1986; 42(3):119-24. · 0.25 Impact Factor
Article: [Importance of numeric scintigraphy of the hips during primary aseptic osteonecrosis of the femoral head in adults].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The authors have studied 58 cases of primitive aseptic osteonecrosis of the hips, 35 cases of coxarthrosis, 12 algodystrophies and 11 cases of coxitis, using numerical scintigraphy with Technetium 99m pyrophosphate. They have studied the ration of uptake by the femoral head over the uptake by the soft issues. The values obtained are compared to those observed in the study of normal hips. The result is that the technique offers the possibility of establishing, in a more differential manner, a diagnosis of lesion of the hips at an infraradiologic stage.Revue du rhumatisme et des maladies ostéo-articulaires 01/1978; 45(7-9):469-71.
Article: [Analysis of one thousand liver scans carried out using technetium phytate (author's transl)].[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: One thousand liver scans were carried out using technetium phytate. This soluble compound is transformed in the circulating blood into a colloid by chelation of serum calcium, thereby forming a macromolecular phytate of calcium and technetium. The presenting symptoms are compared with the isotopic findings. This microcolloid has the advantages common to all technetium tracers and, in addition, is easy to prepare and has the advantage of a distribution between the liver, spleen and bone of the same type as that seen with colloidal gold 198 without the dosimetric problems associated with the latter. Although it has a level of hepatic fixation which is less than that of certain sulphide complexes of technetium, the authors feel that it appears to provide a better relfection of the colloidopexic function of the liver.Journal de radiologie, d'électrologie, et de médecine nucléaire 11/1977; 58(10):647-52.
Article: The use of high activity 99m Tc labeled red blood cells for ventricular contraction measurement with an unsophisticated cardiac synchronizer linked to a gamma camera[Show abstract] [Hide abstract]
ABSTRACT: The availability of a 99mTc red blood cell labeling procedure, using a commercial kit to label at high activity level a small volume of autologus red blood cells, permitted measuring 131 ventricular ejection fractions and regional contraction abnormalities with a non-invasive technique. An individual cardiac synchronizer was connected to the patient to trigger counts and picture recording from a gamma camera. In 32 left ventricular contraction patterns, both selective contrast angiography and scintigraphic techniques were performed. Good correlation was demonstrated between the two methods of ejection fraction measurement (r=0.86) and also in regional contraction abnormalities. Results may be improved by using more expensive equipment, but the technique proved to be suitable, nevertheless, especially in the screening and follow-up of left ventricular abnormalities.European journal of nuclear medicine and molecular imaging 03/1977; 2(1):13-18.

Cleveland might be blaming the wrong guy.
Since LeBron James bolted for the Heat, the city of Cleveland -- once the capital of the Midwest, second only to New York in prestige, population and manufacturing power (1940s, look it up) -- has been relentlessly whining about the supposedly devastating effect of the king's departure.
Well, I whole-heartedly agree.
Cleveland hasn't been the same since they ran the king out of town.

Police Escort Irate Ivana Trump From Plane
Donald Trump's ex-wife, Ivana, was forcefully removed from a New York City-bound Delta Airlines flight Saturday after causing a scene and screaming at crew members.
According to the Associated Press, Trump's 60-year-old former wife became angered by a group of children running in the aisle of her first class cabin while the flight was waiting to depart Palm Beach International Airport en route to New York.
RELATED: Ivana and more of the best (and worst) hairdos of 2009
Flight attendants were unable to calm the socialite down and the pilot taxied the plane back to the gate where law enforcement tried to convince Trump to voluntarily exit the aircraft.
When she refused and continued to hurl obscenities at crew members and fellow passengers, deputies "physically escorted her off the aircraft," a department spokesman told RadarOnline.com.

Moving Through the Next Chapter of My Life (such as it is)
I have been moving right along as I work through a rough spring with my trigeminal and occipital neuralgia. When these storm systems roll through, my face and head have their own agenda. My botox injections were adminstered late due to a change in hospitalization (which is a pain to navigate when one has chronic conditions). The botox, while not completely effective, takes the brunt of the worst pain from me. The last two months have been more bad days than good.
I have had some orders for my mixed media "Journey" pieces so I have been spending a few hours each day working on them. I am having them photographed by a wonderful photographer, Tab James of AdLiv Collective in the hopes of selling prints on line. I will continue to work on original pieces. I promise I will blog about the beginnings of my Lovingly Millie collection.
I have an order for some terra cotta pendants and usually spend an hour in the evening rolling clay and molding it — very relaxing.
I also have gained weight and not many of my clothes fit me so I am trying to sew a few summer pieces that actually look good on my "new" body. Accepting where I am right now weight-wise is very hard for me. I am posting these pictures, although most of my being is screaming to keep them hidden. This is part of my journey too…
Throughout my day, my constant companion is our one-year-old Airedale, Jazzy Joy. THIS is what she does while I create. I promise you, this bed was beautifully made earlier in the day :-)
Oh, and, do you like my sunglasses I got for the beach?? The great thing about glasses and earrings… they usually fit!
Be blessed and encouraged. If I can do one productive thing on days I can only carefully move my head, so can you!!
My Favorite Room (Previously posted October 28, 2008)
As I am working my way back into blogging, I thought I'd post some blogs of years past. This post was published on October 26, 2008. Nothing has changed in this room, including the fact that it's my place of peace.
I thought I'd share pictures of my favorite room in my house. In it, I am surrounded by my favorite things… my Grandmother's Hoosier Hutch (with burn marks in the enamel from Grandpap's cigarettes), my "primitive" hutch, my teapots, a collection of "Marcrest" pottery, some of my decorative paintings, and if you look closely on the bench Danny made, my Bible and study materials. I made the drapes and arranged the flowers.
From this vantage point, I drink tea, relax, read, study, think, pray, and watch. It is a place of peace for me. I caught my bandit chipmunk stealing seeds (see previous post) from this chair. I am blessed. :-)
Remembering, Planting and Close-Ups
This is the second year I've tended the graves of my Grammy, Pappy, Grandma Millie and Grandpap. It is an honor to do it. This year I took darling DannyO along for muscle help. We took Jazzy just for the ride.
Our first stop was the Pike cemetery. Danny weed-wacked around the grave and I started digging. This year I brought along some mulch. I'm not sure if mulch is allowed but… Jazzy stayed in the car and barked at the people tending other graves. I used a mixture of pansies and cosmos. I talked to Grammy and Pappy. Grammy especially liked "DannyO."
We then drove to Ogden Cemetery. Again, Danny weed-wacked around our families' grave stones. I dug and planted the flowers. I talked to Grandma Millie and Grandpap. Ogden cemetery is on a back road and when there was no one else around, we let Jazzy out of the Pilot. I introduced her to Grandpap — he loved dogs, especially his Socks.
When we got home, I used the rest of the mulch on my herb garden. Danny and I also planted two hydrangeas. I hope they grow!
Of course, I can't post a blog without including another picture of Jazzy. I have had quite a year and a love-hate relationship with our Airedale. She turned one on May 14. In the last week we have seen a drastic change in her behavior!! She is listening, not as demanding and I can actually exist in the same space with her as I create – both sewing and painting.
"I'm ready for my close-up!"
Mixed Media Pieces and Other things…
Jesus, You're the center of my joy,
all that's good and perfect comes from You.
You're the heart of my contentment, hope for all I do;
Jesus, You're the center of my joy.
When I've lost my direction, You're the compass for my way,
You're the fire and light when nights are long and cold.
In sadness, You are the laughter, that shatters all my fears,
when I'm all alone, Your hand is there to hold.
This song has been running around in my head all morning. Maybe that's because I'm working on some mixed media pieces that include the word "joy."
As promised, I will try to explain why you haven't heard from me since September. I was in a very dark place and I just couldn't be open and vulnerable. It started when I began to take an extended release of an opiate on top of the same opiate. I just wanted to leave this world. I wasn't actively looking for a way to end my life, but I would have been okay with just not waking up. It took me a little bit of time to recognize what I was feeling.
At first it was just darkness… It is hard to write about and describe but if you've had those feelings, you understand. When I realized what was happening, my first thought wasn't to call a psychiatrist (although maybe it should have been) but to figure out what had changed in my life. I am through menopause, my kids are doing very very well and my darling hubby is still my darling DannyO. The only change was the extended release on top of the regular opiate. (They are now gone from my house!!!) I talked to my PA at the neurologist's office. He said that it was one of the more obscure side effects. The same medicine takes my Mom to a bad place so since I am her daughter it stands to reason it might have the same effect on me.
Rafe instructed me how to word my explanation to my pain management doctor so as not to alarm them. I called and said I was having "intrusive thoughts" and needed to go back on a regular pain pill. It is a step back and isn't as effective, but I tolerate it better. I left a message and within an hour they called me back. I explained that I was not actively suicidal but needed to get off of the meds as soon as possible. I had to wean myself off of the extended release pill. It took about 10 days of me being completely off of the meds for me to see light again. But then I had to pick up the pieces… {{sigh}}
The winter was very long but slowly I began to actually believe that there are new mercies every morning. I also started to paint again, but differently. I will explain in another blog about my "Lovingly Millie" venture…
My choir director called me in February and asked me to play for two things… The Cresson Lake Playhouse Cabaret and the CC Middle School Concert. He prefaced it by saying, "You can say no." I couldn't find a reason to say no so I dusted off my piano and began to practice. The cabaret went very well even though I was scared to death! The middle school concert is the next week so we shall see…
For now I am putting one foot in front of the other, taking one day at a time. Jazzy Joy is making me crazy, but a good crazy. I have to walk her every day so it gets me out of the house. I've also started some PiYo in an attempt to get more exercise. Each day I am thankful that I am blessed, so very blessed.
Tiramisu Cupcakes
I haven't blogged for 8 months. The reasons are varying and I will get into them later in another post (they include meds that didn't react well with my brain's outlook on life…). I have been working on some mixed media pieces which people seem to be interested in buying.
The reason for this blog is I made some delicious tiramisu cupcakes yesterday and two people have asked me for the recipe so I thought I'd share the deliciousness with everyone!! I got the recipe from a Food Network magazine
Tiramisu Cupcakes
Preheat oven to 350. Line a 12-cup muffin pan with paper liners
Cupcake ingredients
- 1 1/4 cups flour
- 1/2 tsp. baking soda
- 1/2 tsp. baking powder
- 1/2 tsp. salt
- 1 heaping tsp expresso powder (I used instant)
- 1 stick (8 tbsp) melted butter
- 1/2 cup sugar
- 1/2 cup light brown sugar
- 1/2 cup sour cream
- 2 eggs
- 1 tsp. vanilla
In a separate bowl, whisk flour, baking powder, baking soda, salt and expresso powder together. In another bowl, whisk 1 stick melted butter, sugars, sour cream, eggs and vanilla until smooth. Whisk in the flour mixture just until combined. Divide the batter among the muffin cups. Bake until the tops spring back. (18-20 minutes)
- 1/4 cup brandy
Brush warm cupcakes with brandy.
- 1/2 stick softened butter
- 4 oz softened cream cheese
- 3/4 cup mascarpone cheese
- pinch salt
- 1 tsp vanilla
- 2 cups confectioners' sugar
Beat butter, cheeses, vanilla, pinch of salt with a mixer on medium speed until creamy (1-2 minutes). Gradually beat in 2 cups confectioners' sugar on medium-low speed until smooth, then beat on medium high until thick and fluffy. (1-2 more minutes).
- cocoa powder
After you frost the cupcakes, dust the tops with cocoa powder
I did a few things differently. In my oven, the cupcakes needed closer to 25 minutes for the tops to "spring back." I didn't brush the brandy on the cupcakes. I dipped the warm tops into the brandy (just like you do when you make Tiramisu). It made less of a mess. I didn't measure the mascarpone cheese, but used one whole small container. I didn't measure the xx sugar, just added enough until I like the consistency of the frosting.
There you have it!!! One delicious recipe. I promise you, the cupcakes taste like tiramisu, but without the labor-intensive process!!
I also am giving you a sneak peek of one of my mixed media pieces. I will explain in another blog my inspiration (my Grandma Millie). This piece is called "Find Strength for the Journey." I am going to have it professionally photographed before it goes to its new home :-)
A Place Of Rest
"Come to me, all you who are weary and burdened, and I will give you rest. Take my yoke upon you and learn from me, for I am gentle and humble in heart, and you will find rest for your souls. For my yoke is easy and my burden is light." Matthew 11: 28.
Fair warning… this isn't a happy blog post. It is a cry from my heart. No pictures. No profound statements. Just me trying to put a very long battle into perspective and searching for a bit of peace.
Those of you who read my blog understand that I work really hard to find JOY in every circumstance. You haven't heard from me because I didn't want to burden you. Many, and I might say most public blogs only show the fun side of life. Right now, it is very hard to read them because it seems most people are sailing through life, creating, functioning beautifully, without a bump in the road.
My "bump" is coming up on 25 years… multiple sclerosis. I have fought bravely with all of my being but I am tired, very very tired, tired in my bones, tired in my soul.
Several factors have culminated to get me to this point. First, my disease is progressing. My trigeminal neuralgia gives me a literal pain in my head most days. Medicating that is tricky. I walk a fine line between being addicted to opiates and under-medicating to the point where it takes more drugs to get rid of the pain. My MS is causing my legs to weaken by the end of the day, meaning that by the time DannyO comes home from work I am totally spent. Add to that sweet Jazmine. If I am honest, we have a love-hate relationship. She is nearly 5 months old, very smart, but a puppy with frenetic energy. I no longer have the privilege of staying in bed all day. Sometimes I need to do that but right now am unable to do so. Since I agreed to get her, I cannot complain to Danny about it. If it was up to me, we wouldn't have her – she is Dan's. But what is done is done.
I weep a few times each day. Yesterday I took Jazzy outside to run off some steam. It was a beautiful sunny Autumn day but I couldn't see the beauty. As I lie in the grass I asked, "Where are you Lord?? I can't feel You!! I can't see You!!"
A whisper came through my spirit… "Breathe, my child, in and out… breathe My Name. I am here. I love you my child"
You see, I forget to pray for myself. I pray for others… sweet Madeline, my darling DannyO and children, my MS Ninja friends, Jenn, requests that come over the EBC Facebook page, my Momma and Daddy.
While it wasn't a big "ah-ha" moment, I decided to just breathe the name of Jesus. Today I am doing better. I was able to do a load of wash, pay bills and pick a few things up at the grocery store without having a panic attack. I took Jazzy to the store because I went early enough that it wasn't too hot. Right now she is crated so I can rest. I am learning that her crate is my friend. :)
Tomorrow?? Don't know. I'm just trying to get through today. Jazzy will want out soon and we will be taking a slow walk (that would be me) to help wear her out. She romps and runs as I shuffle along. My house is filthy (by my standards). It probably would be a good idea if I found someone to help me one day each month. We need to clean part of the basement so Jazmine can go out using that door. It would help keep my kitchen floor clean. I can't go into my art room during the day because she likes to be right by my side and there are too many things she could ruin. In the evening I am just too tired. Soon she will be willing and able to simply lie at my feet… soon… I want to sing. I want to sew. I want to paint. I want to dance (not really but I'm planning to dance in heaven).
So, I breathe, in and out, breathing His Name, asking the Holy Spirit to intercede on my behalf because I don't know how to pray. I behave my way through each day, knowing that there is a chance that tomorrow will be better… maybe. But I hold on to the promise that, if I am weary and heavy laden, I know a place of rest.
There is a place of quiet rest,
Near to the heart of God;
A place where sin cannot molest,
Near to the heart of God.
O Jesus, blest Redeemer,
Sent from the heart of God;
Hold us, who wait before Thee,
Near to the heart of God.
There is a place of comfort sweet,
Near to the heart of God;
A place where we our Savior meet,
Near to the heart of God.
There is a place of full release,
Near to the heart of God;
A place where all is joy and peace,
Near to the heart of God.
O Jesus, blest Redeemer,
Sent from the heart of God;
Hold us, who wait before Thee,
Near to the heart of God.
Meet "Blueberry Hill Jazmine"
Our sweet Tessapoo died on January 23, 2011. My Post, "How Do You Say Goodbye." I vowed we'd never have another dog. My heart was so broken, I didn't know if I could recover. Then Darling DannyO started wearing me down. We made compromises, which is why we just didn't go to a shelter — I wanted a dog that did not shed (I was NOT EVER sweeping each and every day again). He didn't want a little dog, but a hunting buddy. Friends B & G posted pictures of their dog, Crockett on Facebook. I asked what kind of dog he was and where did they get him?? We found out Crockett was an Airedale Terrier. Someone we actually knew, Jeff Varner, breeds them. Circumstances prevented us from actually purchasing one until this year.
Because she is AKC registered, we had to come up with more than "Jasmine," her original name. So, she is "Blueberry Hill JaZmine," because her Mom is Mountain Summit Black RaZberry. Of course, I'm already calling her "Jazz" or "Jazzy" or "Scoobydoo"(not sure why!?!?)
She is smart and really wants to make us happy, except when she wants to make herself happy :-D. {{sigh}} it will all work out!
We are crate training her. She stays in her crate if we cannot watch her 100% of the time. She sleeps in one too. Now, to be sure, she has accidents — she is only 9 weeks old. They are down to about one a day. We are learning her "signs."
My deal with DannyO was that the dog would be his (registered in his name) and when he was home, he would be her primary caregiver. He is holding up his end of the bargain. Of course, he works 8-10 hours a day so that leaves me and Jazzy a lot of bonding time.
With me battling MS and TN, this is indeed a stressful time for me. I am not afraid to put her in the crate when I need a break or a nap. She complains because she'd rather be sitting ON my feet, but she's surviving. I know it is temporary — Jazmine will become part of our family and to be honest, she already has my heart :-)
Baby Dresses and Bracelets
I have been sewing non-stop for the last month. My daughter's friend Sarah and her hubby are having a baby girl. She was Amanda's roommate when she moved to the DC area. They lived together until Sarah and, six months later, Amanda got married. I knew I wanted to do something special for Sarah's baby shower. I decided to dust off my sewing machine and make one of those tutu dresses that are so popular. Of course, being the thrift store maven I am, I chose to re-purpose two skirts I purchased for $2.99 each. I decided to make two dresses just in case I screwed one up royally… I would have a back-up. I always have complete confidence in my abilities. I had no idea what I was getting myself into!!
For the tutu dresses, I used Violette Field Threads – Chloe. I re-purposed a skirt for each bodice. I had to purchase three different fabrics for the skirt, 2 yards each, netting, tulle and chiffon. They suggested nylon chiffon because it doesn't fray, but my local Joann fabric store didn't have any, so I had to get the kind that frays like mad — and it frayed madly!! I decided to interface the fashion fabric because each skirt piece had a slight 4-way stretch. I wanted it to be firm. Again, re-purposing is about giving pre-worn garments a beautiful second life. It was easy to do and, once I interfaced it, the material cooperated 100% !! I also used buttons from my Grammy's stash. I fully finished the bodices, buttons and all, before I even started on the skirts. That was a good decision on my part.
The skirt… ahhhh… the skirt… three different fabrics cut 10 inches long (10 1/2 for the chiffon because I had to hem that), 2 yards wide. The fabrics were hemmed, side seams sewed, lined up, and then I began to gather… 72 inches to 20 inches. Each skirt took about 2 hours to hem, sew, gather BEFORE attaching to the bodice. The one thing I will do differently next time is I WILL learn to use my serger and I WILL use it to combine the three fabrics. I also will be purchasing a gathering foot for my machine in the hopes that it will make this step easier — quite honestly, there probably is not much that will make it easier except to use less fabric, which I won't do because the finished product is AMAZING!!!!
Both dresses turned out beautifully and I was only giving one dress to Sarah. I decided to give the second dress to my friend Tab who is having a baby girl soon too. (You can click the link on Tab's name to read her wonderful blog).
A sane woman would have stopped at two beautiful tutu dresses. But I have never said I was sane!! Sarah and Tim have named their girl Madeline. I decided to use my machine embroidery attachment to make a pillow for her room.
It took me as long to reacquaint myself with the attachment as it did to embroider the pillow. Of course, I didn't stop there. I had some beautiful sparkly beads that I sewed around the embroidery and I found a beautiful butterfly that I hand-stitched on. I don't have a picture of the back of the pillow, but it has three buttons/buttonholes. I used buttons from Grammy's stash.
Then, this crazy woman decided to make a winter dress for Madeline. I used Simplicity 1547. I found a sweet corduroy fabric. I made a small pink felt flower to match.
And then… Sarah has always loved the earrings I made for Amanda's bridesmaids. She will often email me when she wears them. I had a few of the stones in my stash…
Now she has a matching bracelet.
And then… I went through my iTunes and made a music mix for Madeline. I chose all women artists, including my darling daughter. For Sarah's music mix, I gathered all of the worship music that heals my heart and encourages me.
The baby shower was beautiful! Sarah's friends did a wonderful job. I helped Judy put the little teeny-tiny appetizers together. Of course, I forgot to take my camera and didn't get a picture of me and Sarah :-(
I was putting together the mailer to send Tab her dress and decided to make her a bracelet. I don't know her favorite color, but green is my "go-to" when I don't have a specific inspiration color. I used one of my "joy" beads just to encourage her. She is going to, very soon, have three kiddos all under the age of five and two dogs and a hubby and a blog and a business… she's one busy, inspirational lady. I pray she is reminded to simply en"joy" each day, no matter what it brings.
Oh, and last week I spent five days helping Amanda decorate her and Hengyi's new townhouse. We walked and walked, looked and looked (she says I touched and touched… I must confess, I touch everything!!), bought and bought (again, another story — I have to put my credit card away for a while). I hemmed drapes and curtains and, when we got back to my house, I made two pillows out of the fabric that was her inspiration for all of the color choices for her first floor.
Whew!! No wonder I have been tired all week. I am sleeping and napping and sleeping some more. And then on Friday, we get Jasmine.
I have two sewing projects on the list. First: Learn how to use my serger!! I think the tutu dresses would have been easier had I been able to use the serger. Second: repurpose a maxi dress I got at Goodwill into a vintage summer dress. The dress is a newer Target dress. I love the fabric but it hits me in weird places. I am going to use a vintage pattern, 1963 McCalls 6712. So, in essence, I am going to do things backwards — take a new dress and make it old :-). I want to have that done before we go to the beach. Here's hoping…
Oh, and I was going to make baby shoes. I made one sample successfully but I ran out of time. Another project for another day :-)
Link to My Guest Blog Post – Tab's "Mom Next Door" Series
I know this terrific lady. Her name is Tab. I met her through her sister. She is an amazing mother and wife and an even more amazing woman!! I am sure that, if we were both raising children, she would be one of my best friends. As it is, we are blogger friends and each other's encourager.
She has a fabulous blog, which I read faithfully. I love the way she is teaching her children how to find their places in this world and how to be people who make a difference. I know that I didn't thoughtfully raise my children the way she does… I was mostly flying by the seat of my pants.
About six weeks ago she asked me to participate in her "Mom Next Door" series. I was honored to answer the questions she posed and I included pictures of our family throughout the years. Interestingly, she said the photo that prompted her to ask me was this one… I was getting an IV steroid treatment (notice the makeup and earrings and new nightgown I made). Dan would bring the kids in to see me. I got treatments every three months or so until my stomach couldn't handle the steroids and I developed bleeding ulcers.
Take a few moments and read my guest post:
Thanks, Tab, for using my life experiences to encourage other Moms and, most of all, thank you for being an inspiration to me!! I am honored to call you my friend!!
Finishing Projects (Yay me!)
I've been a busy bee in between bouts of vertigo and trigeminal neuralgia pain. My OCD kicks in big time every once in a while and I work to finish projects. I have a brand new project I'm working on but the first version was an epic (and I mean epic) fail!! However, I will not be deterred!! I have the second version half-way done. When I am successful, I will show you both the "epic fail" and the "fabulous" versions! The weird thing about creating is, at least for me, I don't ever feel I've wasted my time if I have to trash something and start over (which I did in this case). It's all part of the journey!!
There you have it! Now I need a nap :-D
Postscript… Marissa loved her bracelet. The two bracelets I sent to the birthday girls must have been stolen. Shown delivered, but didn't arrive!! Grrrr… Apparently, according to the post office, if it is marked "delivered" is it out of their hands so I am out three bracelets and a pair of earrings. Oh well. I am not wasting negative energy on the situation. I will just make more :-D

delicious!Posted on 04 / 26 / 2014
We went here on 26.04.14. We originally thought it was closed as when we tried to open the door, during the stated opening hours, there was no answer. But it opened just as we were walking away. The lady was very nice and welcomed us into the cafe. It's in a strange location, and is very quiet, but once inside we were given the menu and ordered our lunch. We got the (mostly raw) lunch set for ¥1,500, which included kinpira salad, yam, a vegetable sushi-like roll, raw curry with adzuki bean rice, goji berries, zucchini pasta, a green smoothie and a sweet potato and cinnamon dessert type ball. It was a good size, and we were also offered "okawari" which is a second helping. The food is well balanced, and tastes very good if you're looking for something to make you feel healthy and bright. Would go back!

I have asked this question on the Our Umbraco forums, however I wanted to also increase my chances of getting a solution by posting the same question here.
The issue I have is that, inside a Razor macro, I'm unable to get the current
Member who is accessing the site. I have tried the following methods:
- Calling Member.GetCurrentMember(), but this returns NULL.
- Calling Membership.GetUser(), but this returns NULL
- Calling UmbracoEnsuredPage.CurrentUser returned NULL;
Is there another way to get the current

Question is: Do they comply with already existant quasi standards (LAME header, Nero AAC/MP4 gapless solution) or do they use a proprietary solution?
