NYU Female Social Scientist of the Month: Emily Balcetis
WINS Profile:
Dr. Emily Balcetis is an Assistant Professor of Psychology at New York University. Her research covers a range of different topics in social psychology often driven by the interests of the students in her lab. Her research focuses on how the motivations, emotions, needs, and goals people hold impact the basic ways people perceive, interpret, and ultimately react to the world around them. For example, one of her graduate students is interested in psychology and law, wanting to understand how people who are acting as jury members or just the general public see video evidence, and why different people think that a person is either guilty or not guilty based on the same evidence. Another interesting study of hers involves looking at eating habits, and how distance perception can influence eating choices. This was in fact the subject of the talk Dr. Balcetis gave at the NYU Women in Science Spring Lecture titled "Get Focused & Fired Up."
When Dr. Balcetis is not working in the lab, she is also the Director of the College of Arts and Sciences Diversity Initiative for Undergraduate Students. This is a program designed to help students from diverse backgrounds get a faculty mentor. This is done by pairing undergraduates with a Ph.D. student mentor during the summer to learn the research training and skills in order to get funneled into the faculty member's lab. She also teaches several classes. For undergraduates she routinely teaches an undergraduate research methods course in social and personality psychology that students generally take during their junior and senior year. Dr. Balcetis has also taught several small seminar classes—such as a class in social vision—on top of the graduate classes that she teaches as well.
Dr. Balcetis's interest in science most likely started at a young age, as her dad was a psychotherapist and her mom was a teacher. She grew up hearing stories about psychology and teaching, so it is perhaps not a coincidence that she ended up teaching psychology. As an undergraduate student at the University of Nebraska, Dr. Balcetis studied music performance and psychology. She had a ska band in high school—she played saxophone—that made it pretty big when she was 18, playing at Wrapped Tour with another band called Goldfinger. In college however, a series of events led her to stop her music career and truly pick up with her interests in psychology, which led her to receiving a Ph.D. at Cornell University in social and personality psychology. Along with her mentor, Dr. David Dunning, Dr. Balcetis studied how motivations change how we think and see ourselves in the world around us. Her success during her Ph.D. years, along with the support of her mentor, then put her on track to entering the world of academia.
Dr. Balcetis is also a strong advocate for women in science. Psychology is an interesting situation because 80% of the undergraduates who major in psychology are women. However, those numbers drop as you go up, with graduate students and faculty positions being equally divided among the genders, and then positions of power being dominated by males. As a scientist there are a lot of demands that need to be balanced with your personal life, and as a women there are stereotypes that are still prevalent. For advice, she says that, "…the only expectations that you can hold are those that you hold to yourself. At the end of the day it's your life and your career that you are building, and people are going to judge you no matter what. Also, some advice that I give everyone, male or female, is to avoid social comparison. Everyone has their own strengths and weaknesses, and how boring of a world would it be if that weren't true?"

The best thing that could've happened to the Celtics on Christmas Day, in front of a raucous Staples Center crowd and curious national TV audience, was to lose to the Lakers.
Trust me, this game meant a lot more to the Lakers than it did to the Celtics.
Just as Boston received nothing of value for winning 19 consecutive games and embarking on the best 29-game start in NBA history, neither do the Lakers receive any trophies or other meaningful accolades for stopping it with a 92-83 victory Thursday.
Sure, the Lakers can build off a game in which they (finally) defended for 48 minutes and got key contributions from Andrew Bynum (who missed last year's Finals loss to Boston with an injury) and Pau Gasol (who was too often missing in key moments against the Celtics last June). But while they may not realize it now, the Lakers' stirring performance against the defending champs Thursday -- by far the most anticipated game of the NBA season to date -- will refocus the Celtics and alleviate the unnecessary pressure of the streak.
It was tied for the fourth-longest winning streak in NBA history -- a noteworthy accomplishment, and one that will mean diddly squat come June. Had the Celtics won Thursday, their efforts to repeat as champions would've been unnecessarily sidetracked by ever more sweltering national attention on something that ultimately means nothing. As Kevin Garnett said Tuesday night after the Celtics beat the Sixers for their 19th straight win, all of these records and milestones are nothing but steam that will simply evaporate if Boston doesn't win the title.
Imagine the distraction of going to Portland on Tuesday with the possibility of passing the 2007-08 Rockets for the second-longest winning streak in NBA history (23). Then, with victories over Washington, New York, and Charlotte, the streak would've been at 26 when Boston hosted the Rockets on Jan. 7. If they won, they would've been at 27 when they visited Cleveland on Jan. 9 -- inching ever closer to the longest winning streak in NBA history, 33, by the 1971-72 Lakers.
And so on, and so on. The Celtics should be glad it's over. Now they can just continue doing what they've been doing. Now they can take an unbiased look at their team and start thinking about what, if anything, needs to be added before the Feb. 19 trade deadline.
They're still on pace with the 1995-96 Bulls, whose 72-10 record was the best in NBA history. They still have a shot at surpassing the Celtics' franchise record of 68 victories, set in 1972-73. But that record, too, means little; the '72-'73 Celtics lost to the Knicks in the Eastern Conference Finals.
If anything, this loss exploited the Celtics' bench, which got outplayed by the Lakers' reserves. It showed that Doc Rivers will have to come up with an answer if the Lakers choose to close games in June with Bynum and Gasol on the floor at the same time. If Gasol makes big shots -- and he made a couple down the stretch Thursday, and also blocked a 3-point attempt by Ray Allen as the Celtics were trying to cut it to 88-86 with 1:21 left -- it's a formidable matchup problem for Boston. Gasol's block resulted in a five-point swing as Trevor Ariza got free for a dunk that made it 90-83 with 1:10 left.
But this game, beamed to our TV sets on Christmas Day, also proved something else. It proved something else to me, anyway. It proved that Lakers-Celtics in the Finals again wouldn't be as repetitious and boring as I thought it would be. If it's anything like Thursday, then we've all been reminded how much we have to look forward to in June.

"Doorskins" would be a good material, and probably the stuff monophoto was talking about. It's a tropical hardwood plywood, looks something like mahogany but isn't (sometimes marketed as "Philippine Mahogany").
If any plywood is properly varnished you won't have to worry about it delaminating. If it is properly dried when it is varnished it is most unlikely it would be dimensionally unstable.
Real ebony is very rare and expensive. There is some wood out there marketed as ebony which is simply black wood, or a wood stained black. Not to say it wouldn't work, whatever it is.
Any of the plywoods mentioned would work if they are the right thickness, and 1/8 inch is fairly common. And they can all be stained before varnishing to look reddish so they won't clash with the mahogany or cherry.
p.s. I disagree with Stan's comment re the plywood. Plywood is much more stable than a single layer sheet of wood.

Greekangel87, not to pick on you honey, but there isn't anybody here jealous of that donkey-faced tranny, her brood of hired C-listers, and her horrible video. In comparison Paris-ite's song and video was a masterpiece. Maybe you clicked on the wrong link and saw another song though.
greekangel87 9 years
The video is soooooooo AMAZING.It's so sad that your all jealous of Jessica!
beachkate08 9 years
i didn't really like the video.. maybe it would have been better if she had not acted like a slut [i.e. licking that guys face, doing her thing on that ice cream cone, which i may add was absolutely disgusting and if i was i guy i would never want her to do something like that on me, etc].
mar 9 years
It was a "cute" video, but the song sucks, and its so typical of Jess. Shes very boring to me.

I love the video (it cracked me up) and like the song. The song will be good for the gym.

Brokenhalo, have you been drinking or did you watch that Fegie video before this and don't tell me the hot guy you were talking about is Ryan Seacrest. Girl he is gayer than a sunny Sunday morning. You have definitely shocked me though.
brokenhalo 9 years
OK, I'm probly gona shock all the haters here, especially since I'm NOT a Jessica fan, but...I actually enjoyed this vid & the song (there, I said it, lol!). The intro was cute & v. tongue-in-cheek, the tune was catchy & the concept was different. Oh & that guy was pretty cute (not Andy, the other one!) The ice-cream cone was gross though, NOT a Jessica visual I particularly want in my head! But, IMHO, this was a pretty good 'come-back' for Jess.
redrose 9 years
with everything else that is out there this video is not that trashy...come on think about all the things that most of you girls have done in real life on girls nights out for free, i think it is safe to say its probably a bit worse then a music video that jessica simpson made for entertainment and which she will make even more money off of. you'd do the same in her position

The intro was lame, a rip off from that yogurt tv ad blech! and AREN'T THE 80's OVER??!!! I don't like anything about the vid and the song is just blah.

I hate the song and the video. Especially the nasty ice cream cone part, What is she doing telling the world what she can do with a friggin ice cream cone?! Eva, for some reason, looks out of place and old compared to the others (even though she's really not old).

Fashion, you are the one that is being rude. This is a discussion board where people are supposed to express their OPINIONS! If you would have just left your comment no one would have said anything but instead you had to call everyone on this board RUDE, as far as I see it you are the rude one! As for the video, cheesy was the first thought that came to my mind. I don't like it and I really don't like the song either.
KirstyLDonovan 9 years
Just watched the video and have to say I thought it was way too crap for my liking. Eva Longoria looks so awkward in the video, she doesnt fit in at all. As for Jessica, she is just acting like a complete dog. She is coming across as a bit of slut and I certainly dont remember her being that way when she was with Nick !!!!

bgirl 9 years
okay...so paris hilton may not be a talented singer...or talented at any one thing for that matter, but at least the music she HAS put out so far (especially 'turn it up') has been catchy and has had a good beat and/or backdrop. jessica simpson's music just rocks my soul like nails down a chalkboard. then again, she has always had really cheesy music, beats, and lyrics to her songs in my opinion. just listen to her first CD ever, and tell me if you actually dig any songs on it.
Luna13 9 years
i like jess and her video is cute too!
pink_magnetism 9 years
The dialogue at the beginning when they all talk about how famous they want to be is lame. Is it meant to be funny? 'Cause it wasn't. I think I have less respect for Christina Applegate after this. However I did get a good laugh of Jessica trying to be sexy with the icecream cone.

Angry Taiwanese fishermen burned Filipino flags in protest on Monday after the Philippine coastguard fired on a Taiwan fishing boat killing a crew member.
Philippine President Benigno Aquino called for calm as tensions escalated between the two countries over last week's incident in which the 65-year-old fisherman was shot dead.
Hundreds of fishermen wearing yellow headbands and chanting "Justice must be done!" and "Killer must be punished!" hurled eggs at the Philippine de facto embassy in Taipei, which was guarded by dozens of police.
Aquino said on Monday that the embassy in Taiwan was in talks with Taiwanese foreign ministry officials and had assured them an investigation was being carried out.
"I think it is in the interest of both parties to proceed in a calm basis," Aquino told reporters. "We are proceeding in that manner."
The Philippine coastguard admitted on Friday to firing at one of four Taiwanese fishing vessels that it said had strayed into the country's waters.
Taiwanese authorities said more than 50 bullets hit the 15-tonne vessel, and fisherman Hung Shih-cheng was killed.
The victim's son, who was with his father and two other sailors on the boat at the time, has insisted they did not cross into Philippine waters.
Prosecutor Liu Chia-kai described the incident as "nothing but a slaughter," after examining the boat after it was towed back from sea.
Taiwan's government has come under pressure from the opposition and the media to take action.
Aquino declined to comment on demands by Taiwan at the weekend for his government to apologise for the shooting and pay compensation to the victim's family, or face a potential freeze in sending Filipino workers to the island.
There are about 87,000 Philippine domestic helpers and other workers in Taiwan, who send home hundreds of millions of dollars a year.
Taiwan at the weekend sent four coastguard and naval vessels to protect its fishermen in waters near the Philippines.
The Philippine government said on Sunday that Antonio Basilio, head of the Philippines' defacto embassy in Taiwan, had visited the family of the fisherman and "extended condolences and apologies".
Aquino said he did not want to comment further, preferring to let diplomats handle the dispute.
"If we comment on that (at the presidential) level, we guarantee the issue will escalate," Aquino said.
The incident comes at a time of heightened tensions around the region over rival claims to the nearby South China Sea.
China, the Philippines, Taiwan, Vietnam, Malaysia and Brunei all have competing claims to parts of the sea.
Taiwan has ruled itself since 1949, but China still considers the island part of its territory. The Philippines, like most countries, officially recognises China over Taiwan but maintains trade ties with the island.

In May 2011, the International Criminal Court chief prosecutor Luis Moreno-Ocampo said "that killing unarmed civilians would qualify as a crime against humanity."
The Philippine coast guard chased an unarmed and defenseless elderly Taiwanese fisherman for an hour and fired 52 large-caliber bullets to kill him. The actions of the Philippine government and its agents (e.g. Filipino coast guard) meet the ICC's requirement for a crime against humanity.
But, if the Philippine adopts a careless attitude toward the case, the Taiwan government can't force the Philippine to admit the crime, after all, the case will be left unsettled.
Don't forget, there was a fisherman shot in 7 years ago by the Philippine coast guard, too. The suspects are still at large now.

The Sysadmin's Daily Grind: smap
On a trip to Berlin, Charly discovers that the nmap port scanner has a new cousin who enjoys spying on phones – smap scans networks for VoIP devices.
The CCC Congress has become one of my favorite events. I mainly visit the congress because of the excellent talks and workshops, but it's also a kind of community gathering where I might see people who I don't see for the rest of the year, although we regularly exchange email, chat on IRC, or even talk on the phone. Apart from that, it's a good thing to mingle with your own kind – sys admins, that is – from time to time.

These candles are gorgeous. I gave them out as keepsakes at my daughter's baby shower and they were a hit. The candles are beautiful and the packaging makes them even more so.

I used votives as favors for a rehearsal dinner. They set the tone for the wedding. My future daughter-in-law just loved them. Loved that they arrived quickly and are ready to be placed at the dinner. The silver charm attached to the bow complimented the votive. There isn't a negative comment to make about these favors.

Grayson's Current Must-Have: LaLaLounger (Baby Gear Perfection!)Casi Densmore-Koon
Recently I was introduced to one of my favorite things right now in baby gear land. Okay, Grayson's too — for obvious reasons. The LaLaLounger is a seriously amazing. Okay, let's talk about it for a second.
The LaLaLounger is a unique children's lounger designed to enable hands-free time while providing babies with a super-soft, cozy and cute environment. Yes, cute! The fabrics are just adorable. The lightweight design and sturdy handle is great for when we head to Nana's house or from one room to the next. I don't have to take it apart and my toddler can even drag it when we need to move it.
I love the lounger because it's a big giant mat and comfy pillow all-in-one. You can even purchase different slip covers to change out the look from time to time. Which is a bonus if you plan on having more children. It keeps all of Grayson's toys in tiny hands reach and if falls over, since he is a new sitter-upper, I don't have to worry about him getting hurt. It's a huge help during dinner time or when I need to answer a few emails. But most of all, he LOVES it.
We Love the LaLaLounger! 1 of 6
Click-through to see just why Grayson and I are currently obsessing over the LaLaLounger!
Hi Mom 2 of 6
Grayson is all smiles when he gets to hang out in his LaLaLounger. Waving, kicking, and just so happy!
His adorable build-your-own onesie is from Noah's Boytique!
All the Toys, Easy to Reach! 3 of 6
Grayson sits right in the middle of all of his toys and plays for almost an hour, sometimes more! I am pretty sure the LaLaLounger is his happy place.
We have the LaLaLounger upholstered in the blue giraffe print, known as stretch blue -- modern and just oh-so-cute.
Someone Loves Yo Gabba Gabba 4 of 6
Usually top heavy babies have a tendency to fall back when looking up but as you can see Grayson is safe and sound. This is something I love as a Mom, I don't have to worry about him falling back while sitting up on the floor or blanket and hitting his head on our hard wood floors.
Happy Baby, Happy Momma 5 of 6
As you can see, it makes for a great place for a photo opp too!
So Relaxed 6 of 6
I've played all day on my LaLaLounger Mom, I'm so ready for a nap. Oh that sweet face!

We're on a Mission to Make Positive Changes.
Our community is facing a crisis. Omaha is ranked 142nd out of 182 of America's healthiest cities. That puts us in the bottom 25 percent of U.S. cities. To change that trend, we need to take action. Live Well Omaha: Douglas County Putting Prevention to Work (LWO:DCPPW) is a community-wide effort to create better opportunities for healthy living where we live, work, learn and play.
Through two important initiatives, we're helping organizations implement policies to make healthy eating and physical activity a priority. By taking even small steps, organizations are putting in place policy changes that are making big differences.
- Partners for a Healthy City works with business, community and faith-based organizations to implement at least one policy change related to creating opportunities for physical activity and/or making healthy food and beverage choices available.
- Partners for Healthy Schools helps schools implement wellness goals into their current initiatives, as well as form and support successful wellness committees, and integrate best practices for healthy, lasting changes.

It looks really good! I don't see anything that needs changing.
The reapers have returned from dark space. With Earth under attack and the mass relays in a state of chaos from refugees and the councils fleet engaging reaper forces the galaxy is a mess. The outcome is unknown, the warfare is devastating. The galaxy will never be the same.
It looks really good! I don't see anything that needs changing.
Its good, but you should try to give it the feeling of as if it was a station, with some humans who can operate on it.
As of right now, it looks as if it was a giant sniper rifle.
Also, make the shape non angular on the "barrel". It would not make sense for a giant mass accelerator weapon to be cubed. The solar panels add a nice feeling to it.I would also suggest to make it a bit shorter on the "Barrel". and make the barrel half openend, simmilar to how mass relays look. They look like omniblade or claws, with two parralel bars.
I also would suggest you remove the Giant cerberus symbol and give it some light to give it the feeling as there was a giant generator or mass
eezo core or something. Also, try to make it look more rectangular. Cerberus guns mostly look rectangular.
Will probably add some more evidence of habitation if more people ask for it.
If you look at the business end you'll see that the barrel is circular on the inside. The angular parts covering it are for cooling purposes.
Yes, A shorter barrel might be a good idea, considering that the length of the barrel doesn't contribute much in a relatively frictionless enviroment (i.e. space).
I'll consider the open barrel idea.
I'm not going to remove the awesomely massive Cerberus symbol.
I guess some power conduits would be nice, Skylin5gtr can add that when he models and textures it, as he's a pro at that kinda stuff.
Cerberus likes hexagons. I don't think I should make this thing more rectangular. If more people say that I should do that, then I will, though.
that is even better than before, if that is possible, personally i would keep it like it is in this concept, before it looked to flat, but now it looks like it belongs in the mass effect universe and i believe it will fit in just nicely with all the other WMD's
Thanks. I hope I achieved the look I wanted to go with: massive inter-system sniper cannon.
rereading the above comments, i have to agree, some form of living quarters on the ship, and a shorter barrel defiantly, i also like how the cerberus symbol stands out, not just painted on,
too bad you cant add animations or separate moving part, if you could, it would be awesome to have the barrel move, so every time it is fired you see the recoil from the thing as it psychically jumps back from each shot.
I'm thinking that If I add habitation modules on it then I'll have to remove either the wings or the solar arrays, otherwise it'll get too cluttered. Skylin5gtr can always texture some "window lights" on the model, so that the model isn't excessively complicated. If any of you have ideas on how evidence of habitation should be "displayed" then tell me, and I'll see what I can do.
why not incorporate the habitation section and control room into the wings, if they are the right size, in my mind this thing is bigger than a carrier or the size of the crucible, but i bet its smaller, could you perhaps show an image o it next to a ship so we can see the size, if its not too much to ask that is
edit, like the colour scheme of the original thought so would suggest keeping that, maybe a bit more red
Definitely agree, the indication of habitation doesn't have to be sticking out, as indeed it might be too cluttered. Some sort of integrated living quarter lights or bubble styled thing would be fine. Also, I love how it's looking now, except maybe only one wing, just so it looks different and not too ship like.
agree, that way it doesn't look to symmetrical and stands out a bit
size chart: Flickr.com
mostly estimates though. In the mod it could be anything from the size of a Reaper to size the of a Alliance dreadnought.
right that cleared things up, place the habitats and control rooms in the wings mate, that way it not over crowding and you can still keep the same design, if at all possible
just been looking through your flickr pictures, this one caught my eye, i really like the design, will it be in the mod Flickr.com
Agreed, I saw that on the forums, very nice! Hope it will be in-game.
that's what i meant, build it in, not out, so like have windows cut in to the model like on voyager from star trek, where the hull is indented from the windows like i highlight here Moddb.com
its the highlighted red bit
Haha, will see what can do then, but be warned that all it'll look like is a lot of specks, considering the size of this thing.
Worth it. That's all I have to say.
hey why not make the windows like two three decks big, like a couple of observation decks, WMD posts can be pretty boring, as soon as you enter the battle it is over with one shot, so it i more like a cruise liner with a giant *** cannon added to the front/side
The prongs you added on the sides are cool, but I don't much care for the black things on the top and bottom
Got those "solar arrays" from the Cerberus Minuteman station's design. If enough people agree with you, then I'll remove them.
keep the solar panels, makes it look like it needs alot of power to fire,
It's definitely looking better.
Looks more like a weapon than the first version.
I like it! the one thing i'd say for sure is that i agree with lofty and the guest on the living quarters thing. Would just give it that little extra detail.
With all of the debate of the care package Wolf has done another one and I want to get feedback from everyone. Keep it how it is or go something like this route

NASHVILLE, Tenn. (AP) -- Tennesseans will be able to safely dispose expired, unwanted and unused prescription pills this Saturday during National Prescription Take-Back Day.
The event is an effort to rid potentially dangerous prescription drugs from homes so they won't be abused or wind up in the water supply.
The federal Drug Enforcement Administration's Nashville office is partnering with groups from around the state so people can drop off the medicines at a variety of locations. The DEA says the service is free and there will be no questions asked about the medication that is being disposed.
Unused medications pose a public health and safety hazard because they could be accidentally ingested, stolen or abused. To find a nearby collection site, go to DEA website and click on the "Got Drugs?" icon.

Carrie Mashaney, middle, and two other members of her team, Carlos Gaytan, left, and Brian Huskey, learn their team served the judges' favorite food on 'Top Chef.' / Bravo
Carrie Mashaney / Bravo
Top Chef
New episodes air 9 p.m. Wednesdays on Bravo.
Carrie Mashaney isnt sure growing up in Iowa taught her to cook well, but shes sure it taught her to be comfortable in her own skin. Thats proving helpful as she enters her fourth week as a reality TV star.
Mashaney, 36, who now lives in Seattle, is a contestant on Top Chef, a reality show on the Bravo network. The show pits chef against chef, and the contestants are assigned cooking challenges each week; those who dont fare well are eliminated until just one is left standing.
The show was taped in New Orleans earlier this year, and Mashaney has fared well on the episodes that have been televised, winning both the quickfire challenge and the elimination challenge on the third episode. Shes home in Seattle now and cant discuss the outcome of the show, but she alluded to the fact that the experience, while gratifying, wasnt all roses.
The cooking parts of the show are great, but the reality part was hard to get used to, said Mashaney, who grew up in Carpenter, Iowa, on the Iowa-Minnesota border. Its hard to have a camera in your face as soon as you wake up. Sometimes it was overwhelming.
But Im a pretty down-to-Earth person, and all I could do, really, was be myself. So thats just basically what I did.
Mashaney tried out for the show after the owner of the restaurant shes helping to open persuaded her to give it a shot. She works as chef de cuisine of Aragona, a Spanish restaurant, but she has loved to cook since her late mother taught her to make cinnamon rolls. At the time, Mashaney was barely tall enough to reach her familys kitchen countertops.
In some ways, cooking represents family to me; it was great to grow up in a small town where everyone comes together and cooks, Mashaney said. I remember watching my mom throw all the stuff together for the rolls; it was the same dough we used to make bread my grandmothers recipe and baking with her created a warm space in my heart.
Mashaney parlayed that warm feeling into a career after trying a year and a half of college. After graduating from St. Ansgar High School, she attended the University of Northern Iowa, but did an about-face her sophomore year and enrolled in the culinary program at Seattle Central Community College.
From there, she spent five months cooking in France. Later, she immersed herself in the culture and cooking of Spain. She said she cant remember a time when cooking wasnt her passion.
I love the energy in the kitchen; its a good adrenaline rush, Mashaney said. Im also pretty competitive, and I like to immerse myself in (cooking). When someone asks, Whats your hobby? I respond that I dont need one; my hobby is my work, and my work is my hobby.
Mashaney said her competitive side served her well on Top Chef. She works well under pressure, and the show dishes out plenty of that; contestants often have only an hour or two to whip up elaborate dishes.
A question I frequently get is, Are the cooking times real? and I can tell you honestly they absolutely are, she said. When they say, Youre done, youre done. Its not just for the cameras.
Mashaney said her favorite part of the Top Chef experience was just getting to cook my food.
Ive always viewed cooking as an expression of myself, and all the experiences Ive had during my cooking life have kind of combined to create the way I cook now, so its very personal for me, she said. I loved the episode where I made empanadas; at the restaurant, we have a family meal every day, and those are what Ive cooked so often for the rest of the staff.
They were happy to see me cook those; I kept hearing, Im so excited that of all the things you cooked, you got to cook your empanadas!
Those empanadas were what won her the elimination challenge in episode three a challenge to cook in a food truck to feed Habitat for Humanity workers rebuilding New Orleans.
Mashaney said in addition to helping to open Aragona, her goals include owning her own restaurant one day.
I dont have aspirations to be a world-famous celebrity chef not that Id be opposed to it, Mashaney said with a laugh. My current chef has given me a lot of creative freedom, but what Id love is for the menu and the food to be a total expression of who I am.
As far as words of wisdom for other chefs who want to give reality TV a try, Mashaney offers this advice: Its not for everyone.
But if you do find yourself on a show, my advice would be: Just be yourself. And always cook what you know.

I think there might be some plugins conflicting with our theme. Please try to turn your plugin off one by one and see if the problem still persists.I see that you are using wp-minify plugin which does not support WordPress above version 3.3.2. First turn off wp-minify plugin and see if menu works or not.Then proceed with other.Let me hear if it works or not.
I hope this will solve your problem.
Rabin( Theme horse )
The developer discovered it was my custom CSS code that was messing up the menu. That was very understandable, since I only know enough CSS (and PHP) to be dangerous.
All is well now with this fine theme.
In my wordpress page. There is a Qreator section. In this section, there are Styling Option, General Option, Blog Option, Portfolio Page sections which allow you to modify your pages.
Each of these section allow me to get inside and modify pages. However, it NOT allow me do that any more.
Pls help me how to make it work again.
Tina, this is a resolved thread about another issue. Please start another one with a Subject that describes briefly your problem with the Clean Retina theme.
Can you guide me how to start a new subject. I tried and could not find it. Thanks.
Someone else may know a better way, but when I want to ask about a specific plugin or theme, I ahve to start in my website's admin section.
For a plugin, I find I have to do the following:
Plugins /Add New
Search for the plugin
In the search result click Details
In the new window click WordPress Plugin Page
On the next page click View Support Forum
Log in to the WP forum, and the new Subject form is at the bottom of the page. Whew!
As far as themes go, I just tried to do this, and I couldn't figure it out! Maybe some else will help us both!

Less than one period into Wednesday night's hockey game, the eventual outcome seemed clear.
Fork, meet the Alaska Aces -- and stick it to them.
The Idaho Steelheads pumped the visitors for four first-period goals at CenturyLink Arena and earned a 4-1 victory while the Aces continued to struggle mightily to score goals.
Alaska's Olivier Roy (26 saves), the reigning ECHL Goaltender of the Week, proved shaky early and the team in front of him evidently failed to awake from their pre-game naps, all of which helped the fast-starting Steelheads pocket prosperity.
Idaho (12-6-2) racked four goals in the opening 18 minutes, 18 seconds. Rob Linsmayer scored off a helper from former Seawolves winger Tommy Grant, Gaelen Patterson struck on the power play, David de Kastrozza authored the first short-handed strike against the Aces (13-7-0) this season and Etienne Boutet piled on.
All that came against an Aces team that had allowed as many as four goals in an entire game three times in its previous 19 games, and it made for Alaska's most lopsided loss this season.
The Aces' power play could not pull them from the abyss. Alaska went scoreless on six opportunities and has failed to score on 26 consecutive power plays in the last five-plus games.
Even when the Aces did gain glorious chances, Idaho's Josh Robinson (26 saves) denied them. And when Robinson was down and out, teammates Boutet and Tyler Elbrecht had his back -- each defenseman journeyed into the crease to deny what seemed certain goals. Even the iron conspired against the Aces -- both Peter Sivak and Nick Mazzolini rang shots off the pipes.
Jordan Kremyr's goal inside the last two minutes, off a Sivak helper, kept the Aces from getting bageled for the third time in four games.
Of course, that's somewhat par for the course lately, even for an Alaska team that entered with two straight road wins at Utah. The Aces have scored three actual goals in the last three games -- that's not counting the "team'' goal in their 1-0 shootout win at Utah or an empty-net goal in a 3-0 win at Utah.
The power play is particularly troublesome. Though it enjoyed some very good chances Wednesday, very good wasn't nearly good enough.
Alaska's power play is being hampered by the absence of several principal defensemen -- Corey Syvret, Zach Davies and Sean Curry are out with injuries and Kane Lafranchise is up with Abbotsford of the American Hockey League. Those absences have also made the Aces young and inexperienced, and periodically vulnerable, on the back end in all situations.
Plus, Aces aplenty are enduring scoring droughts. Tommy Mele has not scored a goal in 13 games. Evan Trupp is without one in eight games, and Sivak, the team's leading scorer, and Tim Coffman have each gone seven games without a goal.
The Aces face the Steelheads again Friday and Saturday to wrap an eight-game road trip on which they've gone 2-4-0 so far.
Shuffling the deck
Idaho rookie winger William Rapuzzi of Anchorage missed his third straight game with an injury.
Sivak and Mathew Sisca led the Aces with four shots on goal each.
Lafranchise racked two assists for Abbotsford on Wednesday night, when the Heat beat visiting Iowa 6-2. That gives him three helpers in five games since he was promoted.
Also, erstwhile Aces winger Brendan Connolly, called up to Abbotsford last week, furnished an assist in his second game with the club.

A fan watching Sunday's IndyCar Houston Grand Prix captured the moment of impact from Dario Franchitti's scary wreck on the final lap in dramatic fashion.
Obtained exclusively by Houston's KPRC Local 2, the cell phone video shows the speed and intensity on the incident where Franchitti's car launched into the fencing after making contact with Takuma Sato.
Franchitti suffered two fractured vertebrae, a fractured ankle and a concussion in the incident, while 13 fans were treated for minor injuries, two of which were transported to a local hospital.
After making the rounds on the Internet, the video caused IndyCar driver JR Hildebrand to question how cars continue to get airborne.
(1/2) Just saw the fan video of Dario/Sato crash – shows strength of car that he got away from it (although frac vertebrae is no joke)..
— JR Hildebrand (@JRHildebrand) October 7, 2013
(2/2) ..but I think it raises ??s about the cars still taking flight. Scary, uncontrollable, unpredictable when nose-up into fence for all. — JR Hildebrand (@JRHildebrand) October 7, 2013
It's an element of open-wheel that's always been problematic, but hopefully will continue to be evaluated for fan & driver safety alike. — JR Hildebrand (@JRHildebrand) October 7, 2013
Dario Franchitti, GP of Houston, IndyCar, JR Hildebrand, Takuma Sato, Video
A good point made by many that despite the fact that it did break apart, that catch fence did a hell of a job to keep the car on the track.

Considered top-notch by many islanders and Croatians who know their stuff, this tiny downstairs konoba provides an authentic Croatian atmosphere. The large restaurant upstairs has much more space, although it's still quite cozy and traditional, and has a terrace with spectacular sea views. This is a great place to try Kvarner specialties. Of course, it's extremely popular, so definitely make a reservation if you choose to wade through the tour-bus crowds.

Microsoft threatens European Vista delay over EU laws
updated 02:55 pm EDT, Thu September 7, 2006
Microsoft Euro vista Delay
Microsoft has repeatedly expressed its frustration with the European Commission's antitrust regulations ever since the 2004 imposition of a 500 million Euro fine for anti-competitive behavior, arguing that the necessity of opening source code or removing Windows Media Player is neither necessary nor effective. The company brought this dissatisfaction with the EC to the forefront today when it threatened to delay the European launch of its upcoming Windows Vista, according to Reuters. Microsoft claimed in a statement that the release of the much-delayed operating system for the continent depended on the EC's antitrust requirements, prompting multiple EU parliament members to critcize the Commission for risking the competitiveness of European companies, who may need Vista for software development in the near future. The EC flatly rejected the threat. "It is not up to the Commission to give Microsoft a green light before Vista is put on the market; it is up to Microsoft to accept and implement its responsibilities as a near-monopolist," a spokesman said. Microsoft has been historically reluctant to address its dominance: in 1998 the company alluded to disastrous consequences from any legal challenges to its practices.

Is Heart The Single Most Important Attribute If A Fighter Is To Become An ATG?

Re: Is Heart The Single Most Important Attribute If A Fighter Is To Become An ATG?
I disagree because with you BummyDavis because your logic almost embraces imperfection in a fighter and basically implies that a great fighter has to get off the floor to win. Personally I put more stock in fighters who don't have to hit the canvas at all in order to win a fight.
Case in Point:
Which is the greater win?
Foreman TKO2 Frazier
Foreman KO10 Moorer
I obviously pick his win over Frazier but YOUR LOGIC suggests that because he was able to overcome odds or adversity in a fight where things were not going his way that the Moorer win should be ranked higher.
You see heart is a great attribute and it is certainly an important building block and component of an ATG fighter but IMO achievement and talent should be placed before heart simply because they are more capable of being quantified than heart. You cannot fully be objective about heart in the same manner as talent and achievement. For instance to measure heart one has to take everything into account not just conditions in the ring but conditions that venture into the innermost thoughts of a fighter, what they are going through personally, emotionally. Someone can get up from a KD in a fight they are losing or on a Verge of a KO and reverse a fight but someone who has gone through a traumatic experience or emotional or physical hardship in thier personal life yet still show up and give it thier all has just as much heart.
People with demons, emotionally unstable people, People with physical defects or problems that force them not to give it thier all...
Look at Gerald McClellan. He fought his heart out vs. Nigel Benn. But at the end of the fight they called him a quitter. The commentators, Fans, Don ****ing King...But look what happened afterwards. If Gerald McClellan had left the arena and died in a car crash instantly before his condition was discovered people would have called him a quitter. They would have said he lacked heart and he'd probably get slaughtered right here on ESB on H2H match ups because they'll say "if the going gets tough, etc..."
Heart isnt the ability to absorb punishment in war, thats durability.
Heart isnt the ability to get off the floor to win a fight, thats focus and determination and it also takes skill.
Heart is overcoming your shortcomings and putting forth the best possible effort that you can put forth regardless of the circumstance and regardless of the outcome. Thats heart.

PTC orders MTV to tone it down.
"Skins is a show that addresses real-world issues confronting teens in a frank way. We review all of our shows and work with all of our producers on an ongoing basis to ensure our shows comply with laws and community standards." Says a representative of MTV. However, it seems 'Skins' goes a little too far as viewers, communications programs and even Taco Bell are infuriated after watching the premiere episode.
Shortly after the premiere of 'Skins', Taco Bell terminated all future advertisements for the show. To justify their actions, Taco Bell's spokesperson stated, "We advertise on a variety of MTV programs that reach our core demographic of 18 to 34 year olds, which included the premiere episode of 'Skins.' "
While that justification is completely valid, it's clear that Taco Bell cut advertising because 'Skins' goes too far in terms of sex, drugs, and alcohol. To give you an idea of the amount of vulgar content produced by MTV's newest show, the PTC found 42, count them, 42 references in first episode of 'Skins' alone.
But what fun would it be if the show didn't break any laws. 'Skins' now faces the possibility of being charged with breaking anti-child pornography laws. With cast members as young as 15 years old and an overflow of sex and other profound behaviors, it isn't hard to imagine. With all the controversy facing the show, it is possible that 'Skins' could be taken off MTV's network in the near future.
Please take the time to answer and respond to the poll question below:
Poll: What course of action do you think needs to be taken with MTV's 'Skins'?
A. Nothing. 'Skins' is fine the way it is!
B. Cut it immediately!
C. Tone it down and I don't have a problem.
D. Who gives a crap?
See for yourself why 'Skins' has caused such an uproar:
Thanks for this information. I believe there are a lot of shows that are absolutely not for children. We must set an example for our youth.
I pick A
Nothing. 'Skins' is fine the way it is!
Its a good show. Be a a mom and dad and just dont let your kid see it. I dvr every thing my kids want to see check it out my self and then the can or cant. Parents need to stop being LAZY. be Proactive.
theres nothing wrong with skins. I see 12 years olds these days smoking weed and doing the exact same thing.
Earning money from home is the dream of every individual. If you have always dreamt about making
money from home or earning on the internet and have never been able to decide on what to do, do not
worry. For me, writing and posting comments have been money spinners. There are many other genuine
methods of making money online. All you have to do is to check out some of these methods from http://www.everydayhomeincome.com/ and decide on the method that would suit you best!
Thank you
skins is fine the way it is. teens see way worse things in real life so what matters if they seen it on a tv show and kids way younger than that smoke weed, but if a parent is that stupid to be worried about their child seeing something that they probably already see or hear everyday than don't blame the tv network so it gets canceled and then ruin the enjoyment for people who like the show. just dont let your kid watch it… simple as that
Simply desire to say your article is as amazing. The clarity to your put up is simply spectacular and i could think you are an expert on this subject. Well with your permission let me to grasp your RSS feed to stay up to date with coming near near post. Thank you 1,000,000 and please keep up the gratifying work.

Is that photo in a widget area? If so uncheck the "Automatically add paragraphs" from the widget. That'll remove the
tag around that photo and the margin style that goes with it.

Thanks for the quick answer. And you were on the right track, but now I have a related situation.
It's not a widget, but it IS a sticky, which is probably why it put the band. I've used stickies a lot, but always on lighter background so I never knew they put the border.
So, now, how do I get that graphic to stay at the top if I don't sticky it or is there a way to change the sticky so it doesn't put the band.
If there's a code, please show me what is above it and below it as I tend to have trouble knowing exactly where to put the words.
Thanks again.
MaggieApril 26, 2013 at 6:47 pm #37984
Carrie (and others),
Here's how I've temporarily fixed it.
I went into Post #2 and Inserted the graphic on the top of Post Number 2's text, so instead of being a separate thing it's part of the one that used to be 2nd on the page.
But, I'd like to see if there's a way to make it a "top post" without being a sticky.
MaggieApril 28, 2013 at 7:13 am #38198
Ah, okay! That makes total sense.
You're right -your workaround solved it temporarily, but isn't a good permanent solution. Let's fix it via CSS instead. Go ahead and delete the image you set above the text on the post and go back to the way things originally were.
Once that's done, we can dive into the CSS and figure out what we need to edit. If you've never used Chrome Developer Tools or Firebug to help figure out your CSS, check out this demo. Post a message when you're ready and I'll take a look again.

Washington - Many Americans just received their first paycheck of 2013. That sound you hear is the collective "What the ...?" they have emitted upon looking at their pay stub.
For all the self-congratulatory back-patting from the White House and Congress on the deal that averted the "fiscal cliff" of tax increases - the deal locked in the George W. Bush-era tax cuts for households making under $450,000 - they tended not to mention what the deal did, or rather didn't do, on the payroll tax. A 2 percentage point reduction in the Social Security tax, which hits all American workers, had been enacted at the end of 2010. In the fiscal cliff deal, Congress and President Obama neither extended it further nor agreed on any other policies that might have the similar effect of leaving more money in workers' pockets.
The numbers, for anybody who hasn't checked their paycheck yet (or won't get paid in 2013 until later in the month):
For someone who makes the U.S. average for private sector workers of $818.69 a week and is paid every other week, that adds up to a reduction of $32.75 in each paycheck. For higher earners, anyone making over $113,700 annually, each bi-weekly paycheck will decline by $87.46.
The increase in payroll taxes has gone from being an abstraction in Washington policy debates that politicians prefer not to talk about to being something very real.
The big question for the economy as 2013 gets underway is how America will react to their smaller paychecks. It is uncharted waters in many way: For most of the last two decades, taxes have been steadily falling. There is not much evidence for just how much Americans will pare back in response to tighter times and a higher tax burden.
One place to look for evidence is what happened when the payroll tax cut was implemented at the start of 2011. In the first six months of the year, personal consumption spending rose 2.2 percent, though that coincided with a spike in fuel prices tied to unrest in the Middle East, so when adjusted for inflation consumption spending rose only 0.6 percent. (In a way, it turned out to be lucky timing; in effect, the payroll tax break offset the economic drag that came from what turned out to be a temporary bump in oil prices.)
But the open question for the economy in 2013 is whether Americans adjust differently when their paychecks have a tax-induced decline than they did when they received a bump.
In terms of consumer psychology, behavioral economists speak of "loss aversion," a tendency of people to be much more bummed out when they think they have lost something that belonged to them than if they gain it. A child might be much more upset to have a cookie taken away from them than they are happy to be given a cookie.
It is possible that as Americans learn of their lower take-home pay - either from reading news accounts around the fiscal cliff deal last week, or from opening their first paycheck of the year - they will adjust their entire spending plans for the year, which could make January a rough month for retailers and the economy as a whole.

A few weeks ago the right-wing Judicial Confirmation Network, which was founded to help ensure the confirmation of President Bush's judicial nominees, announced that it was changing its name to the Judicial Crisis Network to better reflect the fact that, well, getting judges confirmed was no longer its primary mission now that President Obama was doing the nominating. Now it appears as if JCN is undergoing even more changes, as longtime Chief Counsel and spokesperson Wendy Long has left and been replaced by Carrie Severino: Today the Judicial Crisis Network (Formerly: The Judicial...

If you need any more proof that Senate Republicans' sole mission at the moment is to prevent anything from happening in their chamber of Congress, look no further than the fact that today the Senate had to seek cloture on the nomination Barbara Milano Keenan to fill a vacancy on the Fourth Circuit Court of Appeals, resulting in a vote of 99-0. That's right - not one Republican senator spoke against her qualifications, record, or views or voted to prevent her nomination from receiving an up-or-down vote on the Senate floor ... and yet still they filibustered, forcing Democrats to seek a...

Last year, I wrote a series of posts noting that with the election of Barack Obama, the right-wing Judicial Confirmation Network, which was formed specifically to help President Bush's judicial nominees get confirmed, would probably have to change its name as well as its mission to "support the confirmation of highly qualified individuals to the Supreme Court of the United States [and] ensure that the confirmation process for all judicial nominees is fair and that every nominee sent to the full Senate receives an up or down vote." Well, guess what? The Judicial... MORE

Back in 2005, when the Gang of 14 came together to thwart the Senate Republican majority's efforts to end the use of the filibuster against President Bush's judicial nominees, Sen. Jeff Sessions could barely hide his disappointment that he and his Republican colleagues did not get the chance to deploy the "nuclear option": I am disappointed that this agreement did not provide the other nominees the right to a vote. I was prepared to support the Constitutional option, because these systematic filibusters amounted to an affront to the Constitution and could not be allowed to stand. I... MORE

It came as no surprise when Republicans attempted to filibuster the nomination of David Hamilton to the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals yesterday considering that Sen. Jeff Sessions announced weeks ago that he intended to do so, depsite having opposed the use of the filibuster against judicial nominees when President Bush was in office. Sessions' effort was supported by a gaggle of right-wing activists who likewise opposed the filibuster when it was used against Bush's nominees, but suddenly abandoned their supposedly deeply-help and principled opposition to this sort of "unconstitutional...

I guess it should come as no surprise that Erick Erickson of Red State is leading the crusade urging Senate Republicans to filibuster David Hamilton's nomination: Senator Jeff Sessions is calling on his colleagues to filibuster Judge David Hamilton. Go here and call your Senator. Tell your Senator to oppose cloture on David Hamilton and filibuster his nomination to the 7th Circuit Court of Appeals. At this point, seemingly everyone on the Right who, just a few years ago, was railing against the "unconstitutional" filibuster of judicial nominees has suddenly changed their tune... MORE

Once upon a time, activists on the Right were vehemently opposed to the use of the filibuster against judicial nominees, declaring on principle that its use was flagrantly unconstitutional and calling on Senate Republicans to do away with the Democratic minority's ability to use them against President Bush's nominees. But then President Obama took office and made a Supreme Court nomination and those "principles" went right out the window and suddenly those who had been, just a few years earlier, decrying the filibuster as downright evil were championing it.
