Knowing when to trust a website depends in part on who publishes the website, what info they might want from you, and what you want from the site. If you're not sure whether to trust a website, consider these questions:
SmartScreen Filter in Internet Explorer helps protect you from phishing and malware attacks by warning you if a website or download location has been reported as unsafe.
Windows SmartScreen checks the reputation of apps downloaded from the Internet and warns you if the app isn't well-known and might be malicious.
If Windows SmartScreen isn't turned on, then SmartScreen Filter in Internet Explorer will check the reputation of downloaded apps. If the app doesn't have established reputation, a warning dialogue is shown.
If you're visiting the website with a secure connection, you'll be able to identify the website through the site's certificate. A secure or encrypted website address will begin with HTTPS rather than HTTP, and you'll often see some sort of icon in the browser, such as a padlock indicating that the website is secure. Secure connections use certificates to identify the website and to encrypt your connection so that it will be more difficult for a hacker to view.
Depending on the type of certificate the website has, you can see the website address or the company address that the certificate was issued to. Extended Validation (EV) certificates will turn the address bar green in some browsers, and will contain a confirmed name and address for the website owner. Non-EV certificates will contain the website address or the domain of the site. If you can view a security report, and it only shows the website's address, be sure it's the address you wanted to visit. Phishing or fraudulent websites will often use similar website names to trick visitors into believing they're visiting trusted sites.
Certificates are issued by companies called certification authorities. Windows contains a list of the most common certification authorities. If Windows doesn't recognise the issuer of the certificate, a warning message will appear. However, Windows can be configured to trust any certification authority, so you should not rely solely on receiving a warning message when a website is potentially fraudulent.
An Internet trust organisation is a company that verifies that a website has a privacy statement (a posted notification of how your personal information is used) and that the website gives you a choice of how they use your information. Websites approved by Internet trust organisations are able to display the privacy certification seals, usually somewhere on their home page or order forms. However, these seals don't guarantee that a website is trustworthy; it just means the website complies with the terms acceptable to the Internet trust organisation. Additionally, some unscrupulous websites might display the trust logos fraudulently. If you're not sure whether a trust logo is legitimate, contact the trust organisation to see if the website is registered with them.
To learn more about these trust organisations, you can go to the TRUSTe website, the BBB Online website
or the WebTrust website.
For example, if you've bought merchandise from a physical shop and were happy with the experience, you might want to try the shop's website as well. However, even if you trust the company, you read the website's privacy statement and terms of use. Sometimes, a company's website is independent of its shops, and it might have different privacy terms. Look for terms you might not agree with, such as requirements to accept email offers or advertising from the website, or that your information is shared with the company's partners. If you're not comfortable with the terms or behaviours (for example, you don't want to be tracked or to see advertisements), don't use the site.
If you're asked for personal info, such as credit card numbers or bank information, only provide it if there's a good reason to do so. Also, make sure there's a secure entry form for recording info. Look for a message stating that the info will be encrypted and check for a lock icon or ensure that the web address starts with HTTPS:// (don't enter confidential information if neither of these are present). Also, try to find out what the website's policy is about storing info: Do they keep your credit card number on file? Do they have partners that they share info with? You should be confident that the site is using your info properly and in a secure manner before you provide it.
Do they have a phone number that you can call if you have a problem, or that you can use to place an order? Does the website list a street address? Is there a posted return policy with acceptable terms? If the site doesn't provide a phone number or physical address, try contacting the company by email to ask for that info.
If you're not familiar with a website or it doesn't have a privacy certification seal, you might still be able to trust it. Ask reliable friends or colleagues about the site. Search for references to the site on the Internet to see if a source, such as a magazine or company that you do trust, has referred to it. Read the website's privacy statements or other disclosures (but keep in mind that the site might not necessarily abide by them).
A website might not be trustworthy if:
The site is referred to you through an email message from someone you don't know.
The site offers objectionable content, such as pornography or illegal materials.
The site makes offers that seem too good to be true, indicating a possible scam or the sale of illegal or pirated products.
You're lured to the site by a bait and switch scheme, in which the product or service isn't what you were expecting.
You're asked for a credit card as a verification of identity or for personal info that doesn't seem necessary.
You're asked to provide a credit card number without proof that the transaction is secure.

May 1, 2013
LOS ANGELES - Four UCLA women's water polo players have been selected to All-MPSF Teams, as announced by the conference office Wednesday. Rachel Fattal was named the MPSF Newcomer of the Year and also garnered second team All-MPSF honors and was named to the All-MPSF Newcomer Team. Three other Bruins earned all-conference honors in 2013. Sophomores Gisselle Naranjo picked up All-MPSF honorable mention plaudits.
Fattal, a freshman attacker from Seal Beach, Calif., is second on the team in scoring with 62 goals (1.94 gpg), which ranks ninth in the MPSF. She is the first Bruin water polo player, from either gender, to be named MPSF Newcomer of the Year. Her 62 goals through the MPSF Tournament is the most amongst all freshmen. She leads the Bruins in steals (33), sprints won (40) and field blocks (24) and is second in exclusions drawn (25) and is fifth in assists (25). She was also the only Bruin named to the All-MPSF Tournament Team. Her most clutch outing was undoubtedly in the conference quarterfinals in Berkeley, April 26, against host California. With the Bruins down 3-0 and their NCAA Tournament chances winding down, Fattal proceeded to score once in the second quarter and twice in the fourth to get the team into the semifinals. She went on to score twice in the third-place win over No. 3 seed Arizona State, perhaps the NCAA at-large deciding game. Fattal was the April 15 MPSF Newcomer of the Week, scoring on 13 of 16 shots in three games.
Donohoe, a sophomore attacker from Upland, Calif., leads UCLA in scoring with 63 goals (1.97 gpg), which ranks eighth in the MPSF. She is second on the team with nine field blocks and third in steals with 24 and in exclusions drawn (15).
Hill, a redshirt sophomore goalkeeper from Santa Barbara, Calif., is currently second in the MPSF in saves per game at 10.71. She is also third in the MPSF in goals against average, allowing 6.25 per game. Hill is also third on the team with 29 assists and is fourth on the squad with 21 steals.
Naranjo, a senior attacker from Commerce, Calif., leads the team in assists with 31 on the year. She has 23 goals and is seventh on the team with 13 steals. She also has drawn 11 exclusions and has recorded six field blocks, which is tied for fourth on the squad.
USC sophomore attacker Monica Vavic earned MPSF Player of the Year honors while her coach and father, Jovan Vavic, was named Coach of the Year.
UCLA enters the upcoming NCAA Tournament as the No. 3 seed and will face No. 6-seed Princeton on Friday, May 10. Game time at Harvard's Blodgett Pool is 12:30 p.m. (PT)/3:30 p.m. (ET).

Parking in the City of Wilmington
The following list of parking tips is intended to be a helpful guide to understanding the most commonly encountered parking issues in the City of Wilmington. It is not intended to cover every possible scenario, nor is it meant as a substitute for City Code. To review parking regulations in their entirety, access the City Code here. For those who do not have access to the Internet, please call the Office of Constituent Services at (302) 576-2489.
Email addresses listed below are NOT case sensitive, but are presented with some capital letters for style purposes only.
General Parking Tips
- Have coins available to pay the meter.
- Insert coins into the meter immediately after you park and exit your vehicle.
- Meters accept nickels, dimes, and quarters. Parking rates are posted on each meter. You may purchase 15 minutes of parking for a quarter, 6 minutes of parking for a dime, and 3 minutes of parking for a nickel. You may park at a meter for up to two hours.
- Upon parking, familiarize yourself with posted street signage regarding parking restrictions/limitations. Street signage governing parking rules on a block (such as street cleaning times) may appear anywhere on the block, and familiarizing yourself with signage requires looking up and down the entire block on the side where you're parked, particularly if you don't see any sign where you are parked. The City is required to post signs along a block so that citizens are informed about parking rules/restrictions. The City makes every effort to check frequently for signs that have been removed or have become damaged. If you park on the block and feel that signage may be missing or inadequate, please notify the Office of Constituent Services through email@example.com or call (302) 576-2489.
- Do not park farther than 12 inches from the curb.
- Once you park, make sure that all four wheels of your vehicle are touching the street surface. You will receive a parking ticket if a tire is sitting on the curb or sidewalk.
- Parking is prohibited within 20 feet of a crosswalk or intersection.
- Parking is prohibited within 15 feet of a fire hydrant.
- Parking is prohibited in bus stops or loading zones. Loading zones are reserved for commercial vehicles only.
- Do not block driveways; you may be ticketed AND towed. Vehicles are prohibited from parking within three feet of either side of a driveway.
- Do not park in a handicap space (designated by a blue meter) unless you have a valid, properly displayed handicap plate or placard.
- To pay a parking ticket online, please visit www.WilmingtonParkingTickets.com. All major credit cards are accepted including American Express. Parking tickets paid online within 48 hours of issuance are eligible for a $10 discount.
- To pay a parking ticket in person, please visit the Customer Service Center on the 1st floor of the Redding City/County Building at 800 North French Street, Wilmington, 19801 between the hours of 9:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. Cash, check, Master Card, Visa or Discover are accepted, but American Express is not accepted.
- To pay a parking ticket by telephone, call (302) 571-4320 and select option #4 between the hours of 9:30 a.m. and 4:00 p.m. A City Customer Service representative will assist you with your payment. Only Master Card, Visa and Discover are accepted for phone payments.
Handicapped Parking
Blue parking meters designate parking spaces reserved for vehicles displaying a valid, properly displayed handicap plate or hanging placard. Handicap plates and placards are issued through the Delaware Division of Motor Vehicles and are not issued by the City. For more information, visit www.dmv.de.gov or call the State Motor Vehicle Division branch that serves the Greater Wilmington area at (302) 434-3200.
Drivers with disabilities who have a valid handicapped plate and placard may park in a handicap space (i.e. space with a blue meter) but must observe the same parking rules and procedures that apply to non-disabled drivers. Blue meters, like all other meters, accept nickels, dimes, and quarters.
Malfunctioning Parking Meters
If you encounter an inoperable or malfunctioning parking meter, immediately report the meter number (the number, usually three digits, can be found on the front face of the meter) to the City's Office of Constituent Services at firstname.lastname@example.com or call (302) 576-2489. All claims of a broken meter will be promptly investigated and verified; any citations issued in a parking space with a verified broken meter will be dismissed upon appeal.
Limited-time Parking
If a citizen who does not have a valid residential sticker parks along a block where street signage indicates time-limited parking (for example, two-hour parking) and then moves their vehicle from that block, the vehicle may return in that block on either side of the street for the remainder of the original authorized two hour period.
The original authorized time period begins to run when the vehicle's license plate number is first recorded by a parking enforcement officer. After the authorized period has expired, the vehicle must vacate the block and not return to any parking space on either side of the block for at least one hour, regardless of whether the vehicle moved from the block during the original authorized period. Vehicles returning to the same general area may still park around the corner from their original location or as near as the next up or down block to avoid receiving a ticket.
For example, a car which is parked in a two hour zone at 9:00 a.m., and which is recorded by a parking enforcement officer at 10:00 a.m., may remain parked on either side of the same block, or come and go as often as the vehicle owner chooses, until 12:00 noon. (The unrecorded time period from 9:00 a.m. to 10:00 a.m. is not considered against the vehicle). At 12:01 p.m., the vehicle must vacate the block and may not return to either side of the block for at least one hour.
Residential Parking Stickers
City law requires that residents display a parking sticker in designated parking areas around the city. If you have a residential parking permit, you will be able to park in your designated area where limited time parking regulations apply. Residential parking stickers only exempt you from limited-time parking, not from any other parking regulations.
Residential parking stickers are free and are renewed annually. Sticker expiration dates are clearly posted on the bottom of the stickers.
- Residential parking stickers must be clearly displayed in the proper location on a vehicle which is either the right side of your rear bumper or in your vehicle's right rear window.
- Any outstanding parking and/or red light violations must be paid before a residential parking permit will be issued.
For more information about obtaining or renewing a residential parking sticker, please contact the Division of Revenue at (302) 571-4320 (select option #4 when you hear the recorded message) or call the Office of Constituent Services at (302) 576-2489.
You may also visit www.WilmingtonDE.gov/residents/residentparking where you can also download parking zone maps to see where the residential parking sticker law is in force.
In-Home Care Provider Parking Sticker
If you are an in-home health care provider, City law requires that you display an In-Home Care Provider parking sticker. The parking sticker only exempts you from limited-time parking, not from any other parking regulations.
In-Home Care Provider parking stickers are free and are renewed annually. Sticker expiration dates are clearly posted on the bottom of the stickers.
To apply for a sticker, the care provider must:
- Download and fill out the In-Home Care Provider Parking Sticker Application.
- Apply in person to the Division of Revenue, Louis L. Redding City/County Building, 800 North French Street. Bring the completed application, driver's license, vehicle registration, tax identification number (if applicable), and provider or employer's city business license number.
You may fax the signed application and supporting documents to (302) 571-4087, Attn: Parking Enforcement. Keep in mind that faxing the application may delay you receiving the sticker.
The parking sticker must be clearly displayed on the right side of your rear bumper. The vehicle to which the sticker will be applied must be owned or leased by the care provider. Any outstanding parking and/or red light violations must be paid before an in-home care provider parking sticker will be issued.
For more information about obtaining or renewing an in-home care provider parking sticker, please contact the Division of Revenue at (302) 571-4320 (select option #4 when you hear the recorded message) or call the Office of Constituent Services at (302) 576-2489.
Guest Parking Pass
Guest parking passes allowing vehicles without a residential parking sticker to park in an otherwise restricted area are issued in special cases, such as for visitors to your home.
To apply for a guest parking pass, you must:
- Download and fill out the Guest Parking Pass Application
- Applications must be received by the Division of Revenue at least 24-hours in advance of the need for the pass.
Once the application is received, a representative will review your information and contact you as to whether your application has been approved or denied. The Guest Parking Pass is valid for no more than seven days.
A guest parking pass does not permit you to ignore other parking restrictions such as street cleaning, parking too close to a fire hydrant, blocking a driveway, etc. It is only intended to allow you to park temporarily in a limited-time parking area.
For more information about obtaining a Guest Parking Pass, call (302) 576-2099 or email firstname.lastname@example.com.
You will not be able to obtain a guest parking pass if you or your guest has outstanding parking debts owed to the City.
Child Drop Off/Urban School Permits
Parents, volunteers, and administrators of schools and daycares within the City of Wilmington may request and obtain parking permits enabling the bearer to park in front of the establishment for a limited time (15 minutes or less) for the purpose of dropping off or picking up children. To obtain an urban school permit, email your request to email@example.com or call (302) 576-2489.
Abandoned Vehicles
Vehicles that are parked on a City street in the same spot for more than seven days may be considered abandoned and are subject to ticketing and/or towing—even if you have a valid residential parking permit. If you plan to be on vacation past the 7-day limit, please request a temporary parking pass so that the City is aware that your vehicle has not been abandoned. Finally, if a vehicle is deemed to be abandoned and also presents any type of safety issue, the City may tow that vehicle immediately.
If you would like to report a vehicle as being abandoned, please call the Office of Constituent Services at (302) 576-2489 or email email@example.com.
Street Cleaning
Street cleaning occurs each year between April 1 and October 31 according to the posted signage on City streets. Residents must move their vehicles for two hours from street cleaning zones as stated on posted street signage regardless of whether or not they have a residential parking permit. Street cleaning restrictions are not enforced between November 1 and March 31.
Street cleaning parking restrictions must be observed between April 1 and October 31 regardless of any issued parking permit; in other words, everyone must move their vehicles from street cleaning zones during the restricted times posted.
Once you accumulate $200 or more in fines (includes both parking and red light violations) or three unpaid tickets, your vehicle is subject to seizure/booting. The booting threshold ($200) applies to accumulated fees from all vehicles titled in your name, which includes vehicles either solely or jointly owned. Once you have been booted, you must pay your fines before the boot can be removed. You may call the toll-free telephone number listed on the back of the booting notice and arrange to pay your fine by credit card or make payment in-person Monday through Friday between the hours of 8:30 a.m. and 4 p.m. using cash or credit card at the Finance Department's Customer Service Center on the 1st floor of the Louis L. Redding City/County Building, 800 N. French Street, Wilmington, DE 19801.
Learn how to appeal a towed or booted vehicle.
Penalties and Late Fees
If your ticket is not paid or appealed within 21 days, there is a $20 late fee applied to the original amount of the ticket. If you don't pay within 45 days, an additional $20 penalty is added to the fine. If you don't pay within 90 days, an additional $20 is added to the fine.
Appealing a Parking Ticket
- If you receive a ticket that you believe is unwarranted, you must appeal the ticket within 21 days of the date the ticket was issued. Instructions are clearly listed on the back of the citation. There are no exceptions to the 21-day appeal deadline. Once you appeal a parking ticket, your ticket will then be suspended and you will not incur any penalties while your appeal is being reviewed.
- Citizens may provide other information, in addition to an appeal letter, such as pictures, documents, etc., in order to support their appeal.
- The only address to which you can send a written appeal is: Civil Appeals Director, Louis L. Redding City/County Building, 800 North French Street, 3rd Floor, Wilmington, DE 19801. Appeals are not accepted verbally, nor may you send in an appeal via email.
- Every effort will be made by the Office of Civil Appeals to issue a response to your appeal within 30 days from the date your appeal letter is received. Some appeals take longer than 30 days to determine because they require an on-site inspection of the location where a ticket was issued or a review of materials received with an appeal letter.
- If your appeal to the Office of Civil Appeals is rejected and your ticket is upheld, you may exercise your right to appeal the matter to the Justice of the Peace Court (JP Court) of the State of Delaware. Once you request a court date, you will be notified by the JP Court, not the City, as to when your court date has been set.
Appealing a Red Light Ticket
Citations for red light violations may be appealed within 21 days of the date that the ticket was issued. The red light ticket appeal process is administered by Wilmington Police Department and the City's contractor, ACS Solutions, Inc. Instructions for red light camera appeals are listed on the back of your citation.
Red Light appeals are heard by the Justice of the Peace Court (JP Court) of the State of Delaware. For questions regarding your red light camera violation, you may contact ACS at 1-866-545-7441.
You will receive notification from the City within 30 days of the receipt of your appeal that your ticket has been suspended until the appeal is heard in JP Court.
If you receive a red light violation, you may review a color digital video and full color images of the violation for which you have received a citation by logging onto www.public.cite-web.com. In order to view the video or images, you must enter your citation number and a PIN number which can be found on the citation that was mailed to the address to which your vehicle is registered.
Parking Enforcement Rules
- Parking Regulation Enforcement Officers work Monday through Friday from 8:00 a.m. through 6:00p.m. They do not enforce parking laws before or after those hours.
- Late night and overnight parking enforcement is the responsibility of the Wilmington Police Department, although the WPD's emphasis during these hours is on egregious violations of law including but not limited to parking at a fire hydrant, blocking intersections, etc.
- Neither Parking Regulation Enforcement Officers nor the Wilmington Police Department enforce limited-time parking at meters on weekends and holidays. Citizens DO NOT have to deposit coins in meters on those days.

Today it comprises more than 7,000 paintings, drawings, prints, photographs, sculptures, installations and videos, and embraces 20th century American and European art, traditional and contemporary African art, and a growing collection of the art of our time from throughout the world. Highlights from these permanent collections are on view at all times in dedicated galleries.
Founding patron Roy R. Neuberger is celebrated for championing the art of his time, and the Museum continues his commitment by presenting more than a dozen changing exhibitions each year that range from retrospectives of the work of one artist to thematic surveys of contemporary art to newly commissioned artist projects. From the traditional to the cutting edge, all Neuberger exhibitions are presented in viewer friendly settings with a variety of educational materials intended to make even the most unfamiliar and challenging content accessible to a wide range of audiences.

Valmont Bike Park is still closed even though they are closed!
Submitted by Kris Thompson on
From those concerned for the Valmont Bike Park
The park is currently closed to the public. J2 Contracting from Greeley, CO and Alpine Bike Parks from Whistler, BC are on site and working feverishly to get the park complete. It is a large job involving not just the bike trails, but installing utilities, renovating a historic farmhouse, installing bridges to span the two ditches that run through the park. Please respect the contractors and the city by staying off the site, NO POACHING. Poaching will only delay the opening by causing damage to the incomplete trails and features. Riders found poaching will be cited for trespassing and will have their bikes confiscated.

GENERIC NAME: ibuprofen
BRAND NAME: Advil, Children's Advil/Motrin, Medipren, Motrin, Nuprin, PediaCare Fever, and many others
DRUG CLASS AND MECHANISM: Ibuprofen belongs to a class of drugs called nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs). Other members of this class include aspirin, naproxen (Aleve), indomethacin (Indocin), nabumetone (Relafen) and several others. These drugs are used for the management of mild to moderate pain, fever, and inflammation. Pain, fever, and inflammation are promoted by the release in the body of chemicals called prostaglandins. Ibuprofen blocks the enzyme that makes prostaglandins (cyclooxygenase), resulting in lower levels of prostaglandins. As a consequence, inflammation, pain and fever are reduced. The FDA approved ibuprofen in 1974.

Reviews for No-Cook Pumpkin Mousse
"it has to be good- it is pumpkin. I am just wondering if it is healthy to eat the pumpkin mousse since it is not cooked"
"Can someone tell me where on earth to find cream cheese with cinnamon and brown sugar???? I used to use it all the time, but can't find it anymore."
"I test drove this recipe to have for our family Thanksgiving the day after Thanksgiving. It was very easy to make. I could not find the whipped cream cheese w/ cinnamon and brown sugar at either Walmart or Publix so I made my own and it turned out great. We will be having this for our dinner."
"It was simple & quick to make even had my hubby helping me with this one. Though to kick it up a notch add Pumpkin Pie Spice to the filling and a dash with the cinnamon on top for additional seasonal flavor! Also I used French Vanilla Cool whip on top, my folks loved it!"
"It would be great if the person that submitted the recipe added how much of the cinnamon & brown sugar was needed with the cream cheese. Also recommend adding Pumpkin Pie Spice on top instead of cinnamon to add a holiday kick!"

WIP Wednesday #11
New projects:
Blogger's Blockapalooza
I don't usually go for sampler quilts—just not my thing, I guess. But have you seen the list of people who are contributing to this quilt-along? How could it not be cool? Plus, I'm doing mine in Parisville. Case closed.
I found it challenging and a little scary to choose fabric and colors for one block, without knowing a single thing about the rest of the quilt. I guess I'm just a control freak like that. But I suppose anything that forces me outside of my comfort zone is a good thing. And I love how Block #1 turned out.
Ongoing projects:
Secret Super-Stealth Project
I thought I would have this one done by now. But why complete a project and check it off the list, when you could hand-quilt it? Especially if you've never hand-quilted anything before in your life? Trust me when I tell you that this is so not the project on which to be trying out new techniques. But since when did common sense ever enter into my quilting obsession?
Don't Call Me Betsy's Sliced Coins Quilt-Along
This yummy pile is about to become my Sliced Coins quilt for Margaret's Hope Chest and the Wrapped In Hope project. Can't wait!
Currently being quilted:
Modern Meadow and Urban Lattice baby quilts - I pieced the backs for both of these this past week, and they are now off at the long-arm quilter. So excited to pick them up!
Completed tops still awaiting quilting:
Fall Equinox - I had sooooo hoped to have this basted by now, but it didn't happen. Hopefully today.
Hope Valley quilt
In a holding pattern:
Central Park jelly roll quilt
That Girl quilt-along
Figgy Pudding quilt
Wonky Log Cabin
This week's stats:
New projects - 1
Completed projects - 0
Currently in progress - 12 (up one from last week - but I'm expecting several finishes in the next few weeks! No, really! I am!)
Now it's your turn to ... WIP it! Into shape! Go forward! Move ahead! Okay, I'll shut up now. Please remember to link back to my blog, comment on other links, blah blah blah. You know the drill. Have a wonderful week!

You're hand quilting it????? Holy moly, Lee. You're outdoing yourself for sure! And you didn't have to shut up about WIP'ing it good, you had me laughing pretty darn good. I like your Blockapalooza block, and I think I feel the same way you do about feeling like a control freak. Note how I haven't started mine yet. I like how you used the different colorways together in this block, though, it looks really awesome!

Your block for the Blockapalooza looks fantastic! I know what you mean about the control freak thing - I am waiting to see what the next couple of blocks are like before I commit!
- January 26, 2011 at 5:08 AM
- Becky said...
Hahaha! I'm totally singing along now. WIP it good!
Love your blockapalooza block. I was going to use Parisville too. Then I crossed it off my list and decided to move instead. hee hee. I too was having control issues though with not knowing the outcome of the blocks. I'll be watching yours! Maybe i'll hop back in?
btw - how do you have 12 in progress without going crazy. I think I may be OCD.

That Modern Meadow quilt is amazing! (I am new-ish to your blog so this is the first I have seen it). So simple and so intricate at the same time! Good luck with the hand quilting...I chose to do my first on something that would be sticking around my house. Bad idea, because it's now that project that is a victim of "I'll do that some other time..."

Oh, please this 80's girl who spent many an hour in front of the TV obsessed with MTV when it first came out isn't telling you to stop the Devo reference! Made me laugh.
Your first Blockapalloza looks great!

the getting it done feeling is great, but the getting it done feeling when you've hand quilted? AMAZING! Worth the wait. Good luck with your first hand quilting project.

Exactly! The control fresk in me can't do the Blockapalooza without seeing the whole thing.
Wow - hand quilting! Now that's outdoing yourself! Can't wait to see the super secret project!

I'm intrigued by your Blogger's Blockapalooza Block and can't wait to see where it all goes.
When you get ready to hand-quilt your coin quilt, feel free to message me if you have any questions. Hand-quilting isn't scary at all; a little intimidating at first for most people but that's all.

I'm impressed that you're doing the blockapalooza quilt. I'm not willing to invest the time without knowing where I'll land.
I do like your block more than the original block. At least your quilt will be different from everybody else's.

Great choice of fabrics for the blockapalooza block! I think you really can't go wrong with using the fabrics from one line or designer for a project where you're not sure of the final result (like a mystery quilt as well).
That Devo reference made my whole day. Thanks!!

Oh, Lee, your Blockapalooza block is WONDERFUL! And I hear what you're saying about the control-freak-nature interfering with the sampler quilt-along: I'm several blocks 'behind' on the Layer Cake Quilt-Along I'm doing, in part because it's so hard to pick fabric for just one block! But I sat down one night and chose fabrics for all the blocks I have instructions for, and I kind of like being behind because that has allowed me a little more 'play' in what I'm using. :)
And the Sliced Coins Quilt-Along is going to be so fun! I think I may be able to keep up with that one (although last night, as I finished cutting, the pinwheels kept mournfully looking at me from the guest bed...).

Love your block for the Blockapolooza. Like several others, I'm not ready to commit to that yet. I like to see the finished product first. You have so many great things going on right now. Love the Modern Meadows quilt.

Wow! I love your blockapalooza block and it made me think I needed to get some Parisville. While I was ordering it, I grabbed some Hope Valley design rolls. When I searched flickr for Hope Valley quilts, I saw yours, made my way to your blog and realized that it was your block that started my whole fabric-buying spree! Phew! It was one crazy quilting circle. Love the blog - I blame you for the Parisvile purchase :)

The pGL3 Luciferase Reporter Vectors provide a basis for the quantitative analysis of factors that potentially regulate mammalian gene expression. These may be cis- or trans-acting factors. The backbone of the pGL2 Luciferase Reporter Vectors was redesigned for the pGL3 Vectors for increased expression, with a modified coding region for firefly (Photinus pyralis) luciferase that has been optimized for monitoring transcriptional activity in transfected eukaryotic cells. The assay of this genetic reporter is rapid, sensitive and quantitative. In addition, the Luciferase Reporter Vectors contain numerous features aiding in the structural characterization of the putative regulatory sequences under investigation.
For the most advanced reporter vectors and widest selection of features, please see the pGL4 Luciferase Reporter Vectors.
The specific transcriptional characteristics of the pGL3 Vectors will vary for different cell types. This may be particularly true for COS cells, which contain the SV40 large T antigen that promotes replication from the SV40 origin found in the promoter of the pGL3-Promoter and pGL3-Control Vectors. The combination of the large T antigen and the SV40 origin will result in a higher copy number of these vectors in COS cells, which in turn may result in increased expression of the reporter gene compared to other cell and vector combinations.
The pGL3 Luciferase Reporter Vectors offer different combinations of the
SV40 early promoter and enhancer sequences to provide flexible experimental strategies and user convenience. Functional mapping of genetic elements can be achieved through nested deletions, and single-stranded DNA may be prepared for mutagenesis or sequencing. Primers are available for sequencing across cloning sites and for primer extension analysis.

Thriving at 35
Marking the 35th anniversary of the Dallas Contemporary, Board of Directors Co-Presidents Shelby Wagner and Muffin Lemak hosted the epic, 35-hourlong affair Alive for 35 at the museum.
Dallas Contemporary needed more than an all-night bash to appropriately celebrate its 35-year milestone—so, they took two. During the extended event, Folkorico Azteca ballet dancers awed; The Rose Room gender illusionists dazzled; and The Hensley Ensemble choir serenaded a guest list of art enthusiasts, including Executive Director Peter Doroshenko, Anais Assoun, Jo Marie Lilly, Niven Morgan and Rajan Patel. The two-day festivities culminated in a Big Birthday Bash that saw Los Angeles-based artist James Gilbert incorporate party guests into his wrestling performance art.
Also during the Big Birthday Bash, Morehshin Allahyari, Jesse Morgan Barnett and Dru Bias were among 35 contemporary artists to merge innovation and creativity for the exhibition Acceleration, celebrating 35 years of thought-provoking artwork from the same number of artists, natch. –Photography by Daniel Driensky

Man shot in Wilmington home invasion dies
Published: Friday, June 13, 2014 at 4:17 p.m.
Last Modified: Friday, June 13, 2014 at 9:35 p.m.
This is a corrected version. In the original, the name of the surviving victim was misspelled.
A Wilmington man died after being shot Friday and another victim is in stable condition, according to a Wilmington Police Department spokeswoman.
Aaron McGhee, 47, died at New Hanover Regional Medical Center. Terae Kareem Graham, 26, was shot in the leg, but was in stable condition as of about 9 p.m. Friday, said WPD spokeswoman Linda Rawley.
McGhee and Graham were shot Friday afternoon during what Lt. M.J. Fanta called a home invasion.
In a news release, Rawley wrote that shots were fired after three men entered the residence at 1668 Lilac Court to commit a robbery. Earlier, Fanta had said the men were wearing white T-shirts.
Police were called to the home about 3:45 p.m., Fanta said. Rawley said McGhee lived in the house.
One of the shooting victims was taken to New Hanover Regional Medical Center by EMS, while another was taken by private vehicle before being intercepted by police, Fanta said. It was unclear Friday night whether McGhee was transported by private vehicle or ambulance.
As of Friday night, police did not have any suspects, Rawley said, and the robbers' motives were unclear.
"They're still trying to get as much information as they can," Rawley said.
Anyone with information about the shooting may call the Wilmington Police Department at 910-343-3609 or Text-A-Tip by texting to CRIMES, typing Tip708 then the message.

When I was seven, my father died. My mother, older sister and I moved from a grand home into one room in a boardinghouse, where we took our meals in a communal dining room and slept together in a big double bed. In the back was a wild garden—this was South Africa in the 1940s—with wild cats. On my return from school, I spent my lonely afternoons trying to catch them, until one day I captured a strangely docile specimen. I hid it in the closet, hoping Mother wouldn't find it. Of course, she found not only the cat but also the ringworm I had caught from it and which I now had all over my body, including on my scalp.
Mother was obliged to summon a hairdresser, who ushered me into the boardinghouse's sickly green bathroom. He cut off my thick blonde hair, which I'd worn proudly in two plaits down my back, cropping it close to my head with an awful crunching sound, so that Mother could administer a medicine that burned my scalp. Then, at my request, the hairdresser lifted me up to look in the mirror. I was confronted by a dreadful apparition: a pale face surrounded by hair sticking up like straw all over my head. I ran to the big bed, dove under the sheets and refused to come out. When my mother begged me, all I could cry was, "Too ugly! Too ugly!"
The hair grew back, of course, and I doggedly kept it long into the years when a shorter cut might have been more flattering. That ended only recently, when I wrote a novel based on the life of a French aristocrat who escapes during the Revolution, crossing the rough Atlantic in a small sailing ship. Burdened by long hair in cramped quarters, she takes out the scissors and gives herself a haircut, then throws her locks overboard, glorying in her freedom.
I realized that I had written the scene because it enabled me to revise, at least in fantasy, what had happened in my childhood. My heroine, bravely taking her destiny into her own hands, replaced the image of the child, cropped and humiliated. For the first time, I could face the hairdresser myself and allow him to give me a short, practical cut—becoming, I hope, to my 60-odd years.

A Delmar man accused of stabbing a man in the face at a liquor store in Laurel turned himself into to police on Friday.
Police said Manuel Vasquez, 24, gave himself up after seeing various news reports about the stabbing outside the Five Points Liquor Store at 511 N. Central Ave. on Thursday afternoon.
It was not immediately clear what led to the confrontation, but police said the 27-year-old victim had attempted to walk away before Vasquez repeatedly stabbed him in the face with a knife.
Vasquez ran away after the stabbing and police later found the victim on the ground near the rear of the store.
The victim was initially taken to Nanticoke Memorial Hosptial in Seaford before being transferred to Christiana Hospital, where he was treated for his injuries.
Vaquez is charged with attempted first-degree murder, assault and possession of a deadly weapon during the commission of a felony.
He is being held at the Sussex Correctional Institute in Georgetown on a $45,000 secured bond, police said.

I love candy orange slices. When I was a kid I was allowed to grab a few from the bins when I went to the grocery store with my Mom. To this day they're a candy that I enjoy. I'm a little sad to find that they're getting harder to find nowadays, but I hope that's just the candy trend right now and hopefully they'll stat showing up more frequently. So imagine my excitement when I was contacted by Jelly Belly asking if I'd be interesting in trying some samples to review. Being a big fan of jelly belly, I said yes, but I didn't know what they planned on sending to me. These Sunkist Orange Slices where in that package.
I admit I haven't had the Sunkist version of orange slices, only Brach's and some other "store brands" whose name I don't remember at the moment. These orange slices are smaller and softer than the ones I'm used to. They still carry the same shape with the rippled top of accentuate the orange slice shape. These are most squishy to the touch, and the granulated sugar is has a nice texture to it.
The flavor is similar to the Sunkist Gem orange flavor. It's bright and fruity, with great sweet and zesty accents to make it come across as very "juicy". Because these are smaller and softer, they're very "pop-able", you find yourself eating a bunch instead of stopping at one or two. Very yummy and very addicting.
Even though these are smaller I can easily imagine them as additions to vanilla ice cream and as decorations on top of cupcakes. They're perfectly addicting as is but I can't help but think of creative ways they could be used in other sweets and desserts. I think the orange slice is a really overlooked classic candy, and these Sunkist Orange slices are a wonderful addition to the genre.

What a day!
Barry BONDS tied Mark McGwire, Rickey Henderson passed Ty Cobb and the Atlanta Braves clinched a tie for their record 10th straight division title.
BONDS capped off one of the most memorable days in baseball by hitting his 70th homer, tying McGwire's single-season mark, in the San Francisco Giants' 10-2 win at Houston on Thursday night.
"It was electrifying," he said.
Earlier, Henderson punctuated the career runs record by sliding into home plate - after a home run - in San Diego's 6-3 win over Los Angeles.
"When I knew it was out, so much joy came to me that it was finally over with and I had broken the record," Henderson said after scoring No. 2,246.
While BONDS and Henderson provided momentous individual achievements, the Braves moved within one game of a remarkable team record.
Chipper Jones drove in a pair of runs in a three-run first inning, and Brian Jordan added a two-run homer in the seventh as Atlanta beat Philadelphia 6-2 to clinch a tie for the NL East title.
"The Braves did what they had to do," Phillies manager Larry Bowa said. "They don't have all those banners up there for nothing. We're on a respirator right now."
In other NL games, it was Arizona 5, Colorado 4, St. Louis 10, Milwaukee 3, Chicago 2, Cincinnati 0 in a game reduced to seven innings by rain, and Florida 6, Montreal 2.
Giants 10, Astros 2
BONDS got three more walks - giving him a record 175 for the season - before connecting in the ninth inning off Wilfredo Rodriguez for the record-tying homer.
"I was happy I made contact. It's hard to just take pitches all the time," he said. "You really don't have an opportunity to swing."
Houston lost its sixth straight and eighth in nine games. The Astros, who could have clinched a playoff spot with a win, dropped one game behind St. Louis in the NL Central.
The Giants remained two games behind Arizona in the NL West. BONDS, who has one homer in 97 postseason at-bats, wants another shot at the playoffs.
"This is just the season. I haven't done it in the playoffs," he said. "I've done it in the season. I want to get to the playoffs."
Jeff Kent homered in the first inning after Dave Mlicki (7-3) walked BONDS with two outs. Russ Ortiz (17-9) allowed one run in six innings to get the win.
Padres 6, Dodgers 3
Henderson homered off the top of the left-field fence in San Diego with one out in the third inning off Luke Prokopec (8-7).
Henderson clapped his hands and pumped his right fist as he rounded first following his 2,998th career hit.
As he came around third with a big smile on his face, he motioned with his left hand for his teammates to leave enough room for the slide. He popped up and was mobbed.
"Sliding into home plate was really a treat for my teammates," Henderson said. "I think they were expecting me to go head first into home plate but I told them I hate sliding into home plate head first, so I eventually went feet first."
Jason Middlebrook (2-1) got the win, his first major league hit and RBI.
Braves 6, Phillies 2
The Braves increased their lead over the Phillies to three games with three left - all at home against Florida. Philadelphia closes the regular season with three games at Cincinnati.
Jones, who had only one RBI in his previous 15 games, hit a two-run double off rookie Brandon Duckworth (3-2) in the first inning at Turner Field.
"It was big for the ballclub, but bigger for me from a confidence standpoint," Jones said. I hadn't gotten a big hit like that in a long time."
B.J. Surhoff added an RBI single for a 3-1 lead, enough for John Burkett (12-12) and four Braves relievers.
Diamondbacks 5, Rockies 4
Reggie Sanders homered against Colorado for the 10th time this season as Arizona nudged closer to the NL West title.
The Diamondbacks concluded their home schedule with a three-game sweep of Colorado and have won seven of eight.
Brian Anderson (4-9) got his first victory since July 22. Byung-Hyun Kim pitched the ninth for his 19th save.
Cardinals 10, Brewers 3
Matt Morris (22-8) became the first St. Louis pitcher since Bob Gibson in 1970 to win 22 games as the visiting Cardinals beat Milwaukee behind Mark McGwire's five RBIs.
McGwire hit his 29th homer, a three-run shot off Rocky Coppinger in the sixth, as St. Louis moved into first place heading into a three-game weekend series against Houston.
Hall of Famer Rod Carew announced he will resign as Milwaukee's hitting instructor at the end of the season.
Cubs 2, Reds 0
Todd Hundley hit a two-run homer off Jose Acevedo (5-7) in the seventh inning as Chicago beat Cincinnati in a game shortened by rain at Wrigley Field.
Todd Van Poppel (4-1) pitched one inning in relief of starter Kerry Wood, who allowed five hits and struck out 10 in six innings.
Northern Arizona
Derrek Lee hit a three-run double off Masato Yoshii (4-7), and Kevin Millar drove in two runs as Florida beat Montreal.
Brad Penny (10-10) allowed four hits in six innings for Florida, which won its final home game.

- Memorandum of Law in Berger case (PDF - 1047kb)
County files opposition motion to Berger's appeal
Published: Monday, July 8, 2013 at 6:25 p.m.
Last Modified: Monday, July 8, 2013 at 7:13 p.m.
Fighting back against ousted commissioner Brian Berger's claims of unconstitutionality, the New Hanover County Board of Commissioners argues for its right to use the amotion process in a document filed with superior court Monday.
The issue: Former New Hanover County Commissioner Brian Berger's appeal to New Hanover Superior Court.
What's new: The county filed its opposition motion to Berger's appeal Monday and released the cost of hiring an outside law firm.
What's next: Berger's appeal hearing is scheduled for July 16 at the N.C. Business Court in Greensboro.
The board's new attorney, Greenville-based lawyer John Martin, filed this "brief in opposition" with the N.C. Business Court in Greensboro where the appeal hearing will take place July 16.
The 26-page document asserts that the county had the right to use the amotion process by citing a court case from 1908. This case, Burke v. Jenkins, involves a situation in which the commissioners voted to remove the town's elected treasurer. It successfully used the amotion process, a common law that deals with a private corporation removing an officer because he was unfit, to remove the elected official.
The board claims that the upholding of the Burke case, along with state statutes, allow the board to be recognized as a corporation and makes the common law applicable.
The board also states in the document that though the amotion process might be antiquated, "the age of common law rights or case law does not affect their binding nature and precedential value."
Berger was removed from the board May 20 following an amotion hearing. The commissioners voted 3-2 to oust him, with Berger and Commissioner Jonathan Barfield voting against the move.
The former commissioner filed an appeal of the decision with the New Hanover County Superior Court in mid-June. Berger and the board will have a hearing before Special Superior Court Judge James Gale, a Greensboro-based special superior court judge for complex business cases.
Berger called the amotion hearing a "violation of my Constitutionally protected rights" and said it had caused "irreparable damages" in his signed affidavit included with the appeal filing.
The new document from the board attempts to refute Berger's statement, citing the rules approved during the hearing, which they say protected his right to due process.
It also includes a N.C. Supreme Court decision that declared "a public office is not private property" to dispute Berger's claim of damages.
The board recently hired Martin with Ward and Smith, a law firm with five locations across the state, to represent the county during the appeal proceedings. Martin's services will cost the county $295 per hour, according to county attorney Wanda Copley. She said this is a discount from his usual rate of $400 per hour.
Prior to Martin's hiring more than a week ago, the county's team of three staff attorneys had handled the case so the only cost had been staff time.
Martin was hired by the county, according to Chairman Woody White, because of his expertise and experience with the N.C. Business Court.
The total billable hours by Martin so far were not available Monday. Copley said the county will not receive a bill until after the hearing. The total cost of Martin's services will be paid out of a miscellaneous fund New Hanover keeps for non-budgeted expenses.
