Reviews for Lighter Hamburger Noodle Casserole
"This is similar to the 'Heavenly Family Casserole', the recipe that I want to review but can't find online. It was demonstrated at a November 2013 TOH Cooking School. It uses 8 oz of noodles, 2 lb of ground beef, 1 clove of garlic, S&P, 8 oz of cream cheese, 2 cups sour cream, 24 oz tomato sauce, and 1 cup of shredded cheddar cheese. The ingredients were prepared the same way with 3 layers (noodles, cream cheese mixture, meat) put into a 9x13 baking dish. It was topped with 1 cup of shredded cheddar. Baked at 350 for 30 minutes. Well, the 'Heavenly Family Casserole' I prepared for (literally) a team of professional basketball players got rave reviews! I actually doubled the ingredients to make two - one is still in my freezer. Can't wait to defrost and bake for my family this weekend. Thank you TOH Cooking School for this great recipe!"
"Loved it!"
"The family loved this recipe!"
"This was great, but tempts to eat too much! Used a seasoned sauce as recommended and was really good."
"Very good. I like the suggestion of using a flavored tomato sauce. I think that would add alot."

how I use porcelaine pens
{note: for some reason I put my orange pen in the photo even though I actually used my black one}
the first step is to create the lettering - for the plates I made previously I used the home sweet home font which I found via this post on how about orange. this time however I wanted something different so I looked through some of my vintage cross-stitch books:
I used my computer to size & re-create my favorite using the "x" from the font but you could just do it by hand or with graph paper.
next tape carbon paper onto the back of the printed design:
then tape the combo onto the ceramic item - since mine was curved I cut in certain places to help the paper lay flat:
using a pen draw over the design - to make sure your lines are nice & dark you'll want to press hard and don't be afraid to do it a couple times. before you remove the papers you can look at your pen marks to make sure you got all the lines:
this is how it will look when you remove the papers. be careful not to touch it or you'll smug it, on the bright side if you're not happy with your placement you can just wipe it off & try again!
next step is to draw over all the lines with the porcelaine pen. I used the bullet tip on this one as well as all my previous projects. {have a piece of scrap paper available to write on if the flow is too heavy or if you get something on the tip.}
I just take my time and try not think too much about it...keep in mind that little mistakes won't be as noticeable as you think they will when you're all done:
the pen dries very quickly but if you make a mistake you can scrape it off, I just use my fingernail. the last step is to wait 24 hours then bake it according to the directions which will make it dishwasher safe. for the decorative plates I did previously I didn't bother baking though.
so there you go...hope that all made sense, if you have a question feel free to post a comment & I'll do my best to answer it.
UPDATE: after following the manufacturers directions for baking the mug it was NOT dishwasher safe! some of the pen came off :( very gently handwashing, while avoiding rubbing the pen marks worked but obviously is not a great solution for an item that is used often. in the future I'm going to reserve doing this on only decorative items...

Gina, wanted to say again this was fabulous. Bought a thrifted mug, got my "r" transferred onto the mug just using soft lead pencil, but then, alas, my newly bought pen turned out to just blob out paint onto the mug - the tip did nothing for me. I used a pebeo fine tip pen in orange. Is this generally how things go with them, or do I have a wonky pen? Any tips are much appreciated. Thanks!
- February 13, 2011 at 1:55 PM
- gina said...
thanks everyone for the additional comments - I'm so flattered the post made it to the readymade & craftzine {thanks cassie for the fyi} blogs :)
I've got a little update - I gave the mug to my friend this weekend after baking it as directed & it was NOT dishwasher safe! I would recommend if the piece is not decorative that they be gently handwashed.
I'm sorry that happened Ravina :( I did get a bad pen once – almost as soon as the ink saturated the tip, the tip fell out. I brought it back to the store {michaels} with my receipt & they let me exchange it for another one which worked fine.
I do make sure that if I press the pen down to add ink to the tip that I test it on the piece of scrap paper first to make sure that there's not too much ink. If there is I write a bit on the paper before I go back to drawing onto my ceramic.

- Roseanna said...
Gina the pen you want to use for this project is the "pebeo, vitrea 160". They are non-toxic and I have used it on mugs and it IS dishwasher resistant after baking. It also comes in a range of colors. I have used my mugs for over a year, and even at "high temp scrub"I have yet to see any problem. I love the cross stitch idea, genius! BTW, here is the link for them, I have only found them online.

This Week in Vandal Track & Field:
NCAA West Prelminary (Austin, Texas) May 24-26
Looking Forward
Fresh off a standout performance at the WAC Outdoor Championships two weeks ago at the Dan O'Brien Track & Field Complex, the WAC champion men's team sends seven Vandals to the NCAA West Preliminary Round, while the runner-up women send a group of six to the meet. Since the new NCAA Championship format was established in 2010, this is largest group of Idaho athletes to qualify for the meet. In 2010, five men and seven women advanced and last year in 2011, Idaho sent four men and five women. The three-day meet starts on Thursday and runs through Saturday, with the top 12 finishers in each event advancing on to the NCAA Championships final rounds.
Historically Speaking
Idaho sent nine athletes to last year's NCAA West Preliminary at Eugene, Ore. Three Vandals return from that group this season, highlighted by three-time qualifier Gabby Midles, a senior in the women's hammer throw who is looking for her second career NCAA Championship finals bid in the event. Senior Andrew Blaser is a repeat qualifier in the 110m hurdles, where he finished 41st last season. After joining teammate Hannah Kiser as the first freshmen women in Idaho history to qualify for the NCAA meet last year, sophomore Alycia Butterworth looks to improve upon her 37th overall finish from a year ago. Midles was the last Vandal woman to advance to the NCAA final round, while Eugenio Mannucci (shot put) was the last Idaho man to do so, last season.
A Quick Recap
The meet didn't have the same final drama as the WAC Indoor Championships, but the Vandal men completed the indoor/outdoor title sweep with 219.5 points, eight individual titles and 38 All-WAC honors. Perhaps more impressive were the Vandal women, who went into the meet without several key performers because of injuries and redshirts, but scored 133.5 points and took second after going into the meet projected to score 90 points and finish sixth. Idaho's women tallied three individual WAC crowns and 17 All-WAC honors at the meet.
Nation's Most Improved
Idaho men's track and field showed the biggest conference meet improvement of all four-year collegiate track and field teams - at any level. After taking fifth with 85.33 points at last year's WAC Outdoor Championships, Idaho's men won the conference title this year with 219.5 points - an increase of 134.17 points. That's the highest single-season point increase of any team, men's or women's, from NCAA Division I, II and III and NAIA, this year.
An Indoor/Outdoor Sweep
After its dramatic final-event win to clinch the team title at the WAC Indoor Championships, the Vandals followed it up by leading from start to finish at the WAC Outdoor Championships to win its first outdoor conference title since joining the conference. The performance marked the first time since 1997 and just the second time in school history that the Vandals won both the indoor and outdoor conference titles in a single season.
Medals Only, Please
Senior Andrew Blaser wrapped up one of the most impressive seasons in Idaho and WAC history this season when he scored a school-record 44 points to lead the Idaho men to the WAC outdoor team title. Between the WAC Indoor and Outdoor Championship meets, Blaser scored a combined 84 points, won five WAC titles and medalled in all 11 of his individual events for First-Team All-WAC honors in each. He won the indoor heptathlon, high jump and 60m hurdles and outdoor 110m hurdles and decathlon and finished third each in the indoor long jump and pole vault and in the outdoor 400m hurdles, high jump, long jump and pole vault. His 44 points at the WAC Outdoor Championships were the most by any NCAA men's athlete at a conference championship this season.
Can You Dig It?
Senior Erica Digby came up huge for the Vandal women in her final conference meet for Idaho. With titles in the 1500m (4:29.92) and 5000m (17:14.44) and a fifth-place finish in the 800m (2:13.21), Digby scored 24 points to lead the Vandal women to a second-place team finish at the meet. In addition to the team impact, Digby also goes down as the first Vandal woman to sweep the 1500m and 5000m at a single championship meet and her time in the 5000m ranks ninth all-time at Idaho to go along with her third all-time standing in the 1500m.
Swing The Hammer
Senior Gabby Midles is Idaho's school record holder in the women's hammer throw. Since she arrived on campus as a true freshman in 2008, Midles has re-written the Idaho record book in the event. She is a three-time NCAA qualifier in the event, including a final round appearance in 2010, where she finished 13th overall. She is the first NCAA qualifier in the event in Idaho women's history and is a three-time First-Team All-WAC performer in the event.

Men's Basketball Defeats Patriot League Leader Bucknell 79-67
Two nights after a 17-point win over Rider, the Tigers took down the Patriot League's hottest team, Bucknell, 79-67 Saturday night in Jadwin Gym, cooling the Bison's best start since 1908.
Bucknell fell to 11-2 with the loss, its only other defeat having come at Penn State by three points back on Nov. 23. The Bison had won six straight. Princeton improved to 5-6 with the win, putting back-to-back victories together for the first time this season.
It was also the second straight game Princeton did not let a double-digit lead slip, a problem that had been plaguing the Tigers through the season's first nine games. In eight of those first nine contests, Princeton had led by at least eight points, but only three times did the Tigers win.
This weekend's pair of wins came in big part because of added offense from the Tigers' supporting cast. Following up his career-high 15-point game against Rider, Denton Koon co-led Princeton with another career-best with 17 points alongside Ian Hummer. Hans Brase, who had a career-high 17 against Rider, had 14 against the Bison.
It was the first time since Feb. 11, 2012 that Princeton had five players in double figures, and that night the Tigers knocked off then-No. 25 Harvard in Jadwin Gym, 70-62.
T.J. Bray added 11 points on the night for Princeton, with Mack Darrow adding 10. Clay Wilson, who had nine points, was one point away from giving the Tigers six players in double figures for the first time since March 2000.
Bucknell scored the game's first seven points, but Princeton responded with a 10-0 run and never trailed by more than five points the rest of the way. Bucknell took a 28-23 lead with a little more than six minutes to go before the half, but Princeton answered with a 10-2 run to close the period and take a 33-30 lead into halftime.
After being stuck on 47 points for more than four minutes, a stretch during which Bucknell scored only three points to trim Princeton's lead to 47-43, the Tigers went on a 15-4 run that effectively sealed the game. The Tigers' largest lead was right there at 62-47, with just less than six minutes to go.
Mike Muscala led Bucknell with 17 points and 11 boards, one of three Bison in double figures.
The Tigers will spend the next few days away from the court before resuming practice ahead of their trip to Akron for a Dec. 30 game, their next-to-last before Ivy League play begins on Jan. 12 against Penn.
Postgame notes
• Princeton now leads the series with Bucknell 11-4. The Tigers have won five of the last six games in the series.
• Princeton shot 51 percent for the game, making the team 4-0 when they shoot 50 percent or better and 1-6 when they do not.
• A game after taking their fewest 3-point attempts of the season, with eight against Rider, Princeton took its second-most, firing up 25, one short of the 26 they tried against Rutgers on Nov. 16.
• Princeton's two highest point totals of the season have come against Patriot League schools, with 79 against Bucknell and 72 against Lafayette. The Tigers finish the regular season 2-0 against the Patriot.
• Princeton's 79 points were the team's most since scoring 95 at Evansville on March 13, 2012.
• Princeton had a season-low four turnovers and season-low one steal. The four turnovers were the team's fewest since March 11, 2003, when the Tigers also had four against Penn.
• Bucknell had seven turnovers, a season low for a Princeton opponent.
• T.J. Bray had a career-high eight assists. The junior had the most assists for any Princeton player since Will Venable '05 had nine on Dec. 6, 2003 against Fresno State.
• Ian Hummer's 17 points lifted him to 1,340 for his career, good for eighth place on the Princeton scoring list and 25 points behind Bob Scrabis '89 (1,365) in seventh place.
• Hummer is now at 523 career field goals, good for sixth on the school list and seven behind Geoff Petrie '70 (530) for fifth.
• Hummer's eight rebounds moved him past Andy Rimol '74 (617) for sixth place on the program's list since the stat began being kept in 1954-55. Now at 618, Hummer will have a while to catch fifth-place holder Chris Thomforde '69 (709), a teammate of both Hummer's father Ed '67 and uncle John '70.
• Hummer's two blocks moved him (98) past Craig Robinson '83 (97) and into a tie with Rich Simkus '83 for fourth place on the program's list since the stat being kept in 1974-75. Hummer's former teammate Kareem Maddox '11 is in third place with 108.
• Denton Koon had a career-high scoring total for the second straight game, first with 15 points against Rider and then 17 against Bucknell. Koon has shot .684 (13-19) from the field over the last two games.
• In going 4 of 4 from the free throw line, Koon improved his percentage this season from the stripe above 90 percent, now at .905 (19-21).
• T.J. Bray had his third double-digit scoring game of the season and tied a season high with three 3-pointers. His other high-scoring games were Nov. 24 at Lafayette (17) and Dec. 1 at Kent State (15).
• Mack Darrow's 10 points were a season high and his most since scoring 12 at Evansville on March 13, 2012. It was Darrow's first start of the season and first start since Feb. 10, 2012, when he started against Dartmouth.
• Hans Brase scored double digits in back-to-back games for the first time in his career. Brase is shooting .708 (17-24) from the field over the last four games and is 5 of 5 from the line over the last four games.
• Brase attempted and made his first career 3-pointers tonight, going 2 of 5 from distance.
• Brendan Connolly tied a season high with three assists.

I would like some rational for the order as every body has different ways of doing things. I have just got my test receiver bent in the jig that I got from sprat(thanks again) and I am ready work on my heat treating procedure. I intend on using an acetylene torch set up at my grandfathers shop ( I also have a torch set up at my shop but only have propane/ O2 set up . same set up just different fuel gas. i was wondering if a slightly carborizing flame on the acetylene set up would help to add some extra carbon into the heat treating process? I have a few other questions for you guys after I get a little farther along and I have been saying I will put up some pics but haven't gotten around to it yet . (I will when I have all my jigs and rivet squeezers done) thanks again for all the great advice.

Remove your-rose-colored glasses free agency take
The Dolphins signed a big-name player and a couple of other guys, and suddenly "they're a contender" according to most pundits. Sure, its fun to play a mini version of fantasy football and let the GMs draft what they think is going to be a great performing team.
I do give Ireland credit for *finally* having a conviction in free agency and acting on it. But there didn't seem to be much competition for Wallace's services (although I did hear that Minnesota may have been interested - and wouldn't it be funny if they were the ones who drove his price up? The Vikings of course snookered Miami out of a draft pick a few seasons ago when they drafted Vernon Carey) and paying him that much would appear to be over paying for a guy who was very good *two* seasons ago. Last year he was no better than anyone Miami had - so they're banking on a possibility?
The NFL free agency period on the big name players is a 50/50 proposition - at best. For every great free agent, there are a dozen busts. As much as I generally don't like The Bleacher Report, here are two articles that cover that very topic:
And given Ireland's history on free agency, I have trouble believing Miami has "turned the corner" and gotten better. Prove it.
Now to be a conspiracist, but I have to wonder if there's an attempt to win fan support for the bigger picture: Ross wants his stadium improvements, and this is a small price to be paid to put positive energy on the Dolphins. If it is, it still is good for fans, but it just happens to run contrary to his "we build through the draft" mindset.
As for the linebackers he signed, last year we heard the defense had a good foundation. But now about half of it is comprised of new players. And in jettisoning a couple of the players, the Dolphins showed that free agency decisions of the past were bad decisions. So are they really better?
And just one other comment. Given the roster churn that happened when Parcells, et al arrived on the scene, and the emphasis they put on that first draft back in 2008, its amazing that NONE of the draft choices from that season are still on the team. Not a one. So I guess selecting Jake Long #1 overall wasn't such a great idea, after all.

Great poat and very accurate, as always we will need to see how Rayn plays and how the secendary plays as well. Our big problem is in the defense, we let teams come back on us and score late in the game, if we can put an end to that then I think we will have turned the corner, till then it is still up in the air.
Dude... Our head coach surely had a bit to do with free agency this year. I trust him. Lets see how this plays out before we go all crash and burn. Ireland can do nothig right. If he goes all out he is crtitcized. If he does nothing he is criticized. I'm getting the feeling everyone in the Dolphin organization is doing the best they can to build a winning team. How exactly would you have done it better?

How exactly would you have done it better?
What's with the pessimism? Truth is NOBODY knows what really happens behind the scenes in free agency. Only a few teams (that need a receiver) had the cap space to add Wallace anyway. All I heard last year was "We need receiver upgrades and a deep threat" and now that they signed one, you think they got duped? EVERY SINGLE PLAYER added to ANY TEAM is a risk, be it draft or free agency. You think Tom Brady would have fell to the 6th round if everyone knew how good he would be? The point is nobody knows, but with great risk comes great reward. What does Wallace have to do to make his acquisition worth it? Given the receivers only scored 3 TDs last year, I say not much.
Your blog suggests that the only reason the Dolphins can't compete is because the offense sucks. If the defense "had a solid foundation", why can't anyone cover a tight end? Why is Cam Wake the ONLY player sacking the QB? Why does Tom Brady LOVE padding his stats against the Dolphins? Consistency and chemistry is just as important as talent, because talent alone doesn't guarantee a playoff birth (refer to the 2011 Philadelphia Eagles). Clearly with losing records the last few years, you have to do something different, create a different chemistry. I appreciate what the front office is doing- this team needed a face lift and major overhaul.
As far as your conspiracy theory, I'm sure that the stadium issues played into the acquisitions somewhat. WELCOME TO POLITICS!!

While many of us consider St. Patrick's Day second only to New Year's Eve in terms of the number of "amatuer" partyers that it attracts, there are still lots of good reasons to get out and about this weekend, and not just to drink green beer and get trashed before 3 in the afternoon.
However, with the holiday falling perfectly this year on a Saturday, that'll happen to lots of folks. Let's look at some good nighttime entertainment options where you can continue the party.
Down at The State Room, Karl Denson's Tiny Universe rolls in for two good-timing nights with the funktastic band sure to inspire lots of dancing and general revelry. Denson's a veteran musician and played with Lenny Kravitz and his old band, the Greyboy All-Stars. This will basically be a dance party - albeit one with a great, funky soundtrack. Tickets remain on sale for both nights.
Also Friday night, country star Miranda Lambert brings her decidedly traditional brand of big-time country music to EnergySolutions Arena. Lambert's made a slew of good records in the past few years and this show should be a good one. Tickets start at $25.75 and remain on sale through smithstix.com.
Also, two good non-party options are available. The always-worthwhile Plan B Theatre Company is running its "The Third Crossing," which takes on the story of former Thomas Jefferson slave and lover, Sally Hemmings. Should be a great tale. Check arttix.org for the availability of tickets.
And finally, it's the final weekend for the Utah Opera's "Elixir of Love." Everyone I've talked to who has seen it, loved it. Tickets are also at arttix.org.

Our website is a website about the Missionaries from the Latter-day Saints. These women were first called to serve full-time proselytizing missions beginning in 1898. This site is devoted to the research on the early missionary experienced sisters from the Mormon Church from 1898 to 1930.
Database is up
Although there is a database with information there is not one article posted yet. The database has all the women listed and what missions they were posted at.
No posted articles
If those who are responsible for this blog need to post something soon. I was at this site yesterday and then there also was nothing. This is a reasonable subject and this blog could get lots of traffic if the people would at least have one article posted.
Maybe too late
Perhaps this is one of those blogs that never gets going; no traffic or no articles. I would encourage these people to keep going with the blog. You have the frame work of the site up and a database, there is actually not more to do.
I would like to make a suggestion. The website of Webtrafficgeeks.com has a staff that certainly can help with getting your traffic and to get this blog up and running well. Nothing is more satisfying than having a blog that people come to on a regular basis and are interested in the information you have to offer. It can help you with any problems that you are having.

Big Picture: The state of automation
Conveyor and sortation systems are using software and controls to manage the flow of goods while distributing work in a way that eliminates bottlenecks.
Intelligrated: A question of balance
When it comes to distribution, multi-channel retailing is creating challenges and opportunities for automated materials handling. "I think of it as store front and front door fulfillment," says Jerry Koch, director of corporate marketing and product management for Intelligrated. "You want the right mix of equipment and software to make decisions at the speed of the automation to have a positive effect on the day."
The approach being pursued by Intelligrated, says Koch, is to use warehouse management and warehouse control software to manage the release and flow of orders in a way that balances the work in the building. The system not only gets materials to the shipping dock efficiently, it distributes the work in a manner that keeps everyone busy without creating bottlenecks. If one area of the facility becomes too busy, the system can redirect the flow of material to another area that has capacity and it can make those decisions dynamically in real time.
Looking forward, Koch and Intelligrated expect to see breakthroughs in robotics, especially as vision technologies mature. "This is an area where there are a lot of conversations going on with customers," says Koch. "The driver is the cost and availability of labor. We expect to see this continue to pick up steam."

Miguel Regalado
Miguel Regalado
Position: Offensive Coordinator
Other Position: Strength & Conditioning Coordinator
Email: firstname.lastname@example.com
Phone: 785.594.8343
Overseeing the offense, offensive line, and strength program, Miguel Regalado joined Baker University in 2008.
In charge of the offensive line in his first year in 2008, he guided a unit that paved the way for running back Richie Bryant who led the HAAC in rushing with over 1,300 yards on his way to becoming the 5th leading rusher in the NAIA. The 2008 unit also protected quarterback Mack Brown who threw for over 3,000 yards and was 4th in the NAIA in passing.
In 2009 with three new starters on the offensive line Regalado's group once again opened holes for Richie Bryant who led the HAAC in rushing for a second consecutive season with over 1,200 yards
In 2011 Regalado was promoted by head coach Mike Grossner to offensive coordinator. Sophomore quarterback Jake Morse had a breakout year leading the HAAC in passing, throwing 17 touchdowns to only four interceptions en route to being named HAAC Co-offensive player of the year. Senior running back John Babb also led the HAAC in rushing and was named the 1st-Team All-HAAC running back.
Most recently in 2012, Baker had a balanced attack with 2,056 yards rushing and 2,110 yards passing for a total of 4,166 for an average of 378.7 yards per game. Under Regalado's direction, the Wildcats ran for 23 touchdowns and threw for 20 and averaged 26.9 points per game.
Regalado is proud to have coached a 1st-Team All-HAAC offensive lineman five straight years: Andy Bibb (08), Clint Benge (09), Billy Chambers (10), and Aaron Rieschick (11 and 12). Both Bibb and Benge also earned NAIA All-American honors.
Miguel and wife Heather are parents of a son and daughter, Jalen and Ava.

My newest book.
This is an 80 page, 7 inch square book, with more than 70 of my best photos of western Canada taken within 2009-2011.
It contains a varied collection of landscape and wildlife photos as well as photos of abandoned houses, grain elevators and vehicles. From the rain-forests of Vancouver Island, to the jagged peaks of the Rocky Mountains and the vastness of the Canadian prairies.
Each photo has a detailed description and the exact lens and camera settings used to capture the photo. Also, throughout the book are photo taking tips that I have found to be most beneficial to the beginner DSLR photographer.
Note: The preview does not do justice to the quality of the book, especially regarding the alignment of photos that spread over 2 pages (most photos). The spread photos in the printed book have near perfect alignment.

After reading Jeff Atwood's article "Working with the Chaos Monkey" and considering the implications of "Fallacies of Distributed Computing" it made me wonder if the first task of developers creating a cloud-based application should be to create a Chaos Monkey. Actually, given that even an entire data center can be lost within a cloud, the Chaos Gorilla may also be necessary to simulate a major outage.
Netflix certainly seem to believe so but I was wondering if their conclusions were shared by others here.
So, as the title says, when embarking on a cloud computing project should a Chaos Monkey be the first application?

Having just acquired Bel Canto Pre3 and M300 monos, I was wondering if anyone had any recommendations as to cables, or conversely, any to steer clear of?
I would be needing a balanced pair to connect the amps and a matching (same make?)RCA pair to connect source. Unfortunately source doesn't have balanced output.
If anyone has any I would possibly be able to afford about £250 - £300 for the two pairs.
Be pleased to have your suggestions, whether you're selling or not! It's mainly to find something that works with the amps!
Thanks in anticipation.

The holiday season is just around the corner, so we do a little Buy - Sell - Hold today with some athletes.
On the flip side - you could be buying Deron Williams, Chris Paul, and Dwight Howard right now when no one cares about the NBA. When they eventually come back (in 2012-13) these three will probably be the hottest free-agents in the game. Depending on how things work out, Howard will probably end up on the Lakers and either Paul or Williams goes to the Knicks ... that would drive up values as these players enter the biggest markets in the game.

This installment: a family's dissolution, a multi-layered psychological mystery; and rural girls go bad.
Gone by Cathi Hanauer
Eve is a nutritionist, offering a sensible hands-on program for those whose attempts at traditional dieting have failed. Her husband Eric is a sculptor, now facing a long creative block. Their 14 year old daughter is in the throes of resistant adolescence and the younger boy, now ok, had mysterious early childhood illnesses. Then Eric disappears overnight, with the babysitter. The resounding silence that follows convinces Eve she's been abandoned. However Eric's fled to his mother's house in Arizona and he's in touch with their daughter via texting. Eva's too hurt and stubborn to answer his phone calls. We follow the groping path of each spouse as they try to reconstitute their lives apart, which means facing some home truths. And indeed the separation was just what they needed. (The babysitter was a red herring.) I especially liked learning about Eve's clients and the challenges of trying to help people change deeply embedded habits and needs. Moving.
Broken Harbor by Tania French
What an amazing multi-layered psychological mystery."Scorch" is a tough, smart detective with his own sorrows--a broken marriage, a crazy mother's suicide, a younger sister also mentally ill. He remembers the eponymous place as a brief happy time in his childhood but now it's renamed Briantown, a new housing development substandard from the start, and the site of horrendous, mysterious multiple slaying. Scorch is working with a young partner, Richie, and has high hopes for bringing him along. The murder could be pinned on the family's father, now dead, but Scorch pokes further and comes up with contradictory evidence. We learn a lot about the nature of detection, techniques for interrogation, and the psychological, societal pressures that warp behavior. So much creepy business, including holes in the wall of the family's deteriorating dream house and odd traces of a prowler. Full of British-isms like "old son." A few pages in the book left me scratching my head, but didn't interfere with the breathless sweep and plunge of the material and a sense of moral struggle and coming to terms with hard truths.
Shelter by Frances Greenslade
At first this looked like many other books I've read recently: young girls growing up rural and things go bad. But soon I sensed a deeper dimension and by the end felt I had discovered a fresh gem. British Columbia setting. Lots of love and sweetness despite the domestic tensions. Maggie and Jenny's father takes them hiking and teaches them how to build shelters with whatever's handy. But a logging accident kills him, their vibrant, erratic mother can't cope, and she soon abandons them. Bea and Ted, the couple who take the girls in, are respectable on the surface but it's an almost Dickensian nightmare behind closed doors. Bea is fiercely controlling, yet volatile. Her crippled husband Ted is a heavy drinker. There are a few spots of light--Vern, a classmate, part Native, and his uncle Louis. Sure enough Jenny gets pregnant, but it turns out the baby is a healing force. Beautifully written, very immediate, with a thoughtfulness that lingers.
Back next Monday.

As this is an election year here in Australia, I believe the time has come to start highlighting a few of our politicians…. the really stupid ones. These are the politicians that leave me scratching my head wondering who the hell voted for them and what the hell they were thinking when they did? Hopefully within the next four weeks or so I will posting the full list of incumbent federal members and their stance on human-induced climate change and global warming. For each I will quote statements (some of them are fantastically stupid) they have made that support my assertion that they are either climate science acceptors or idiots. Some will make you laugh, some will make you cry, some will make you want to throw your computer out the window in a fit of rage, and I can guarantee there will be more than a few facepalm moments. So without further ado let me introduce our first idiot, John Forrest.
Johnno is a long time member of the conservative National Party. "The Nats" as they are affectionately called by many Australians can be considered to be the party for the farmers. Johnno's Akubra hat is a definite clue. When you see a hat like that on a pollie, you just know he's from the bush. A bit about his electorate, Mallee. This comes from Johnno's website
First proclaimed in 1948/49 the Mallee Electorate is 70,694 square kilometres. It is the largest geographical electorate in Victoria with only 11 larger electorates Nation wide.
The region is noted for a variety of industries including tourism, services, manufacturing, dried fruit, citrus, stone fruit, almonds, olives, pistachio and other nuts, bee-keeping and pollination, wheat and other cereals, wool, sheep, vegetables, forestry, wine grapes, table grapes, dairying, beef cattle, meat works and sand mining.
To give an idea of the size of Mallee, the total area of England, Scotland and Wales is 219,000 square kilometres, or equivalent to just 2.8 Mallee electorates.
England at 130,395 sq kms is 1.67 times the size of Mallee; Scotland 78,772 sq kms is about the same size, and Mallee is 3.75 times bigger than Wales.
The electorate stretches from the South Australian border in the west to Campaspe in the east, from Sunraysia and the Murray River in the North, and the Wimmera, Grampians and Western District in the south.
In other words, it s a big electorate in the bush. Now, don't let Johnno's laid back country looks and hat fool you. He is a bona fide scientist, fully equipped to make informed decisions about climate science. I kid you not. He says so himself.
"There are several positions about climate change. One is that the climate of this fragile planet has always been changing, and there is plenty of evidence of that. In some instances this climate change has been quite dramatic, even cataclysmic. The second position is that the current phase of change is caused by human activity and therefore we can have an impact on it if we change our ways, particularly our prolific consumption of energy. I believe that a realistic position is somewhere between these two propositions. Then there is debate in the scientific community about what is causing these changes. This is where the debate gets much more controversial. Every day my office is bombarded with positions from both points of view about carbon… Thankfully, I have a masters degree in science…"
Well there you go. A masters in science. Hang on……what kind of science? Well, according to his website he has a Master of Science and his undergrad degree is a Bachelor of Engineering. Apparently he also has a Diploma of Civil Engineering, and published some "professional papers". What is it with deniers and their failure to recognise expertise (or lack thereof)? So Johnno, the country pollie with the engineering degree, considers himself suitably qualified to dissect climate science. Hang on, I'll be right back. The plumber has just arrived to rewire my house! Well, maybe we should have a look at just how scientific Johnno is. I stumbled onto the following hilarious exchange between Johnno and someone called Peter, at the Atheist Foundation of Australia Inc forum. Peter had emailed all of our Liberal and National Party politicians asking them to consider climate change, and in his words "the reversal of hundreds of millions of years of carbon sequestration carried out by the decay of plant life and our reversal of this process which can not continue." he received the following reply from Johnno.
Dear Peter
Do you know what the specific gravity of CO2 is?
Look it up in an old school physics book.
It's heavier than air.
Get some dry ice which is actually frozen CO2.
Tell me what the vapour does when it thaws.
It drops to the floor.
If this is the case, can you tell me how it gets up several kms to become a greenhouse gas?
We have been duped.
Thankfully, more and more Australians are waking up to it.
Climate change is real but we are being led up the garden path as to the causes.
I will remain resolutely opposed to this Bill which crucifies our economy for no global gain.
Malcolm forgot his basic grade 6 primary school physics and should never have taken us to these embarrassing circumstances.
I'm with the Nationals and will have no say in what happens from here in respect to leadership for the Libs. I am praying for the greatest of wisdom to fall on my Liberal friends including Malcolm.
I hope they read your Email

How fantastic is that? Rather than pull this apart myself. Let's just see how Peter responded.
Thank you for your prompt reply Mr. Forrest.
When you use the term "air" what gasses which comprise air are you talking about?
Because air comprises 3 major gasses.
Nitrogen (N2) forms the bulk of our atmosphere it has a specific gravity of 0.9723.
Next comes oxygen (O2) which has a SG of 1.1044.
Lastly comes CO2. This has a SG of 1.5189.
As you will notice nitrogen is the lightest gas followed by oxygen and then carbon dioxide.
Are you suggesting that our atmosphere is layered? Each layer containing only one gas?
So we, at sea level have to breath CO2, unless we can place ourselves at an altitude where we can breath pure oxygen?
And above these layers lies the bulk of our air made from nitrogen?
No, sir, the continual air movements make our "air" more-or-less a homogeneous mixture of all three of these gasses along with other, rarer, ones.
Now this is where it gets really (insert any emotion here). Johnno replied with the following.
You forget that CO2 is utilised by all vegetation to extract the carbon and release the oxygen.
Part of the designers plan I happen to think
What I am expressing is my serious reservations that CO2 is the great villain being made out
Methane and the other nitrous oxides and nasties yes but not CO2
The modelling upon which this whole premise is based is progressively being discredited.
What's the hell bent rush all about?
Because of my engineering and scientific background, I am a stickler for proper process. Let's wait to see what occurs at Copenhagen and a full enquiry in to recent world wide questioning of the science.
We have time. The rest is haste for blatant political purposes to create an illusion about who is more climate change conscious.
Of course the atmosphere (air) is amorphous. Wind and sheer are great mixers but not greater than the law of gravity
John Forrest, MP
Federal Member for Mallee
So there you go… I think I can paraphrase this quite nicely. Let me know if I'm on the right track here. Johnno is effectively saying, "Because I am scientist, I know this is true. God made plants low to the ground. Because he designed them to consume CO2 and because he invented gravity he had to make CO2 heavier than other gases so that gravity would pull it to the ground where the plants are. People and animals don't die from the CO2 because the plants consume it. The air is mixed , but it isn't." It actually makes perfect sense… if you're a child or a moron.
Now, I could go all sciency here and get into fluid dynamics and atmospheric physics and relativity and various other disciplines but I think, given the Inhofesque comment about the "designer" I think I'll just run with a picture that sums it up.

Gross margin is the percentage of money left after cost of goods sold have been subtracted from revenue. The dollar amount is called gross profit.
<math>Gross\ margin = \frac{Revenue - COGS}{Revenue} * 100% = \frac{Gross\ profit}{Revenue} * 100%</math>
Operating margin
Operating margin is the percentage of money left after operating expenses have been subtracted from gross profit. These expenses include research & development; depreciation; and selling, general, & administrative (SG&A) which includes office rent and executive salaries. The dollar amount is called operating profit.
<math>Operating\ margin = \frac{Gross\ proft - Operating\ expenses}{Revenue} * 100% = \frac{Operating\ profit}{Revenue} * 100%</math>
Net margin
This is the percentage of money left after all expenses have been subtracted from revenue. Besides the above, this includes tax expense and interest expense. The dollar amount is called net profit.
<math>Net\ margin = \frac{Operating\ profit - All\ other\ expenses}{Revenue} * 100% = \frac{Net income}{Revenue} * 100%</math>
Margin and analysts
The various margins are closely tracked by analysts and investors in companies. If the margin begins to fall, then expenses are increasing and analysts want to know why. It could be that the cost of inventory is going up so that affects gross margin (and all the other margins, too, as it works down the income statement). If more advertising is happening, that will lower operating margin.
Ideally, the margin levels should remain flat (that is, expenses and revenue increase by the same percentage) or increase over time (as the company becomes more efficient).
This explains why stock prices often move upwards when companies announce that they will layoff workers or close a plant. The costs for those workers or that plant will disappear and the reported margins should improve, assuming, of course, that revenue doesn't drop by a proportional amount.
Margin and the broker
In certain types of brokerage investment accounts, the broker lets the investor borrow money from the broker in order to invest. This loan is called "margin."
Maintenance requirement
The amount that can be borrowed depends on the broker, on the size of the account, and the various requirements of the broker. Chief among these is the "maintenance requirement." This is the collateral that the broker requires be in your account, based on the value of your holdings. As the price of the stock you own changes, the level of maintenance requirement changes.
Margin call
If the amount of collateral goes too far down, the broker may issue a "margin call" and force you to either put more funds into the account or to sell one or more of your holdings to raise cash and pay off some of the margin. This latter can be done without your knowledge or permission (actually you give permission for this when applying for a margin account) and could be stock you would rather not see sold.
Risks of margin
It is possible to borrow too much from the broker so that when a margin call is finally made, the entire account is wiped out and the investor must sell other assets (such as their house) to repay the broker. Within Fooldom, this is probably the most recommended post, describing what happened to one investor near the end of the dot-com bubble.
