Excellent craftsmanship and best in class customer service
August 6, 2013
Very pleased by the quality, look, and feel of this ring. Unfortunately we purchased ours a size too large (titanium rings need to be melted down to be resized so be sure to get measured by a reputable jeweler) and the company processed a return with complimentary resizing free-of-charge. We're extremely happy with the level of customer service we received and the ring itself looks fantastic. Highly recommended.

Gorgeous Ring
July 2, 2013
This ring is great, it's very light and comfortable. We opted for the polished finish, and the mokume gane inlay is subtle but stands out enough to make it obvious this isn't just a plain wedding band. We did have an issue with the first ring we received, there was a flaw in the ring, but customer service was very helpful, we sent back the first ring and a new one was made and sent out quickly. The new one is perfect, just what we were hoping for.
Pros:Lightweight, smooth, comfortable.

Korokke - Japanese Potato Croquettes
Total Time
Prep 30 mins
Cook 0 mins
I've made this for years after learning how from a Japanese exchange student. This is a great sidedish for beef!
Ingredients Nutrition
- 3 -4 cups leftover mashed potatoes
- 1 cup corn
- 1⁄2 cup flour
- 1 egg, beaten
- 1 cup panko breadcrumbs (Japanese bread crumbs)
- oil (for frying)
- Mix together mashed potatoes and corn.
- Make into patties that are fat but flat.
- Dip each pattie first in flour, then beaten egg, then panko.
- Fry in hot oil.
- Drain on paper towels.
- Serve with Tonkatsu sauce, or other Asian sauce.
Most Helpful
This recipe still tastes great if you opt to bake it at 400C for 20 minutes or until golden brown instead of frying it. I added chopped basil, green onion, sausages, and sour cream. Feel free to twist the flavor.
Who doesn't like korokke? My mom is Japanese and adds a little ground pork to hers. Delicious!
I found this recipe to be amazing. The korokke were crispy on the outside and soft on the inside. I'll certainly be using the recipe again in the future.

Prosecutor named to replace Smith as County Judge
Assistant State Attorney Tim Browning, 53, of Archer, has been named to replace Levy County Judge Joseph Smith on the bench.
Gov. Charlie Crist's office announced the appointment Monday afternoon, just days after Smith was honored at a retirement reception.
He was chosen over two attorneys who practice in Levy County: Ronald Stephens and Charlotte Weidner.
It was a tough picture for anyone to erase from memory: two men sat across a table dining while the hands of an unseen third man — the one wearing a video camera whose wiring is sewn into his shirt — reaches into a bag and pulls out a stack of fresh $100 bills.
"Let's get down to business here," the disembodied voice of FBI Special Agent Sean Quinn said, "This is $10,000 here." He counts out the bills into ten stacks. The image of Benjamin Franklin on the front of the crisp bills almost seems to stare into the camera.
The beleagured Levy County Emergency Medical Service is buying two new units for $114,695 each because the current fleet of seven vehicles is spending too much time in the shop with high-milage on them.
The purchase, from Wheeled Coach of Winter Park, was approved by the commission during its regular meeting on Tuesday at the County Courthouse. The money is in the department's budget for the year.
Firefighter Jeff DiMaggio has been selected by the town council to fill the vacant chief position for Bronson Volunteer Fire and Rescue. DiMaggio joined the BVFR in July, after completing the construction of a home outside of the city limits. Before the move, he spent more than nine years as a member of the Cedar Key Volunteer Fire and Rescue Department where he also served as assistant chief.
DiMaggio is a Fire Management Officer for the Florida Department of Environmental Protection.
Chiefland and Levy County residents needing the blood-filtering effects of kidney dialysis will soon find they need not travel far. That's because Chiefland is about to have its own kidney dialysis facility.
Ron Colvin, field superintendent for the construction company overseeing the project, said the facility, started in October, should be completed by mid January.
The building, owned by Fresenius Medical Care, is of modular construction and is about 7,000 square feet. Colvin said the building is meant to handle up to10 patients at a time.
Central Florida Community College is one step closer to getting a new name.
The CFCC District Board of Trustees approved the name College of Central Florida at their Tuesday meeting. Other names recommended to the board were: Central Florida State College, Florida American College and State College of Central Florida.
While ABC's "Extreme Makeover Home Edition" taps into the community spirit to help one family, the show also offers a way volunteers can make a difference for the entire community, and no carpentry skills are needed.
Through Dec. 14, donors in Chiefland can also get involved by stopping by LifeSouth's donor at 2202 N. Young Blvd. in the Winn-Dixie Center Shopping Center. All donors will get a limited edition Extreme makeover: Home Edition Blood Donor T-shirt.
Forty-six people battled the rain and elements to attend the second Levy County Sheriffs Fundraiser For the Cates Family. The event raised $2,300 for the five children of Carrie Cates of Bronson, who died after being struck by a vehicle on Oct 9. The children are being raised by her parents.
Although over 87 people had signed up for the class, the turnout was impressive considering the bad weather, Lt. Scott Finnen, the event coordinator, said.
Dunnellon Community Thrift Store open
The Community Thrift Shop has opened a new store at 11871 Illinois Ave., in the old Sertoma Club building behind the Route 41 Dry Cleaner across from Dunnellon Printing on Illinois Avenue.
Thrift Shop hours are now 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. Mon. through Sat.
In addition to providing a place to donate gently used clothing, household and decorative items, it gives the community a place to shop for low cost necessities.
Actors singing traditional songs of the season, admission to the "Art of the Chopper" and "Red" exhibitions, and tasty holiday treats are all included in the Holiday Duet program offered by the Ocala Civic Theatre and Appleton Museum of Art of Central Florida Community College Dec. 17-20.
Admission is $18 per person and tickets are available at the Appleton Museum, Ocala Civic Theatre and online at www.AppletonMuseum.org and www.ocalacivictheatre.com.

I've got the WP-PageNavi plugin working fine, but had a question about modifying how many posts are displayed per page.
Here is the loop I'm using.
$args = array(
'post_type' => 'commercial,
'posts_per_page' => 4,
'paged' => get_query_var('paged')
$my_query = new WP_Query( $args );
while ( $my_query->have_posts() ) : $my_query->the_post();
<!-- post info here -->
<?php endwhile; ?>
My overall goal is to display 2 posts on the first page and 8 posts on any of the subsequent paginated pages. I've use the if_paged() method to modify the posts_per_page variable, but the pagination gets messed up. Has anyone had any results with something like this?

Peterson runs wild against Rams
ST. LOUIS Adrian Peterson piled up a season-best 212 yards, moving the Minnesota running back closer to the NFL rushing record.
That helped the Vikings top the St. Louis Rams, 36-22, Sunday. He has a career-best 1,812 yards rushing, leaving him 294 shy of breaking the season mark of 2,105 set by Eric Dickerson of the Los Angeles Rams in 1984.
Peterson, less than a year removed from a serious knee injury, has games left at Houston and home against Green Bay to top it.
"Yeah, it's been in my sights," Peterson said. "I'm not focusing on it. It's in the back of my head that, hey I definitely want to accomplish that.
"I look at today's game, and I could have had 300."
"He continues to amaze you with some of his runs," Coach Leslie Frazier said.
The Vikings (8-6) scored 10 of their 23 points in the second quarter off turnovers by Rams (6-7-1) quarterback Sam Bradford.

Customer Finds
Location: Colorado
Metal Detector Used: Other (800-0284)
Dear White's,
Just when you think it couldn't get any better. Man White's machines ROCK! Last year I switched from another brand of detector to White's. My first White's was a MXT. Fell in love with it and have had great success. My goal last year was to find enough gold, silver and clad to buy a DFX. It took me all last year hunting, but the hard work paid off. Two months ago I bought the DFX. Can it get any better than this?
My first day out, 30 minutes in and Bam – one 14k gold men's diamond ring. The second day out and Bam I found one gold 18k and a .925 silver ring. And on the third day out Bam a ladies 18k gold ring. So three trips out and 4 rings to show for it.
I also found something I was afraid to pick up. It turned out to be 10k plated over silver teeth grill. And not to mention all the clad found. I haven't totaled the clad yet as I like to wait to the end of the season for totals. Just when I thought it can't get better than the MXT. Might take a few years to master all the DFX's capabilities but I'm having a blast doing it. I keep this up and the V3i might be in my future.
Thanks for making awesome machines!John (CO)

I found a bit of code that is supposed to hide various dashboard menu items from users, depending on their role.
I've tried adding this to my multisite, but it doesn't seem to recognise the "editor" role?
function delete_menu_items(){
remove_menu_page('tools.php'); // Tools
remove_menu_page('options-general.php'); // Settings}
if ( current_user_can( 'editor' ))
{add_action( 'admin_init', 'delete_menu_items' );}
If I swap editor for administrator then it removes the items from the admin menu and leaves them if you're an editor.. just can't seem to get it to work the other way round, which is what I need?

While we celebrate Pope Francis' historic visit to Uganda today, I thought I'd share with you this classic image of Pope John Paul II during his apostolic visit to Uganda in 1993. Wonderful, isn't it?
During the 26 and a half years of his pontificate, John Paul II was a pilgrim to 129 different countries on 104 apostolic voyages, traveling 1,247,613 km (approx 750,000 miles).
How's that for racking up airmiles!
And here in this photo, Kenyans greet Pope John Paul II with music in Nairobi in September 1995. 1995 was a busy year of travel for Pope John Paul — 12 countries in all.
Don't miss a minute of Pope Francis' historic trip to Kenya, Uganda and the Central African Republic. Watch it all right here on Salt and Light.

Changing over Vararam
Does anyone know specifically what has changed on the new Vararam intakes? I have one on my 11 and am trading it in for a 13. I'm assuming it's possible to just order a couple parts instead of a whole new intake?
I have the 13 version and to my knowledge the only change is ... mine came with a taller intake tube. There may be no reason for you to change anything at all. My 13 had a build date of 9/25/12.... I bought mine in December of 2012. On that build date RAM decided to run a few AC lines in a new way that caused them to be much higher in the engine compartment.
You'd never notice unless you were trying to add a Vararam intake or an S&B CAI- The lines get in the way.
All that said- RAM re-routed the AC lines on all build dates after that and that means the taller intake tube is not likely needed.
I'm no expert on Vararams or Ram AC lines..... The only reason I'm mentioning it is you said you already have the Vararam and I'm thinking it will fit just fine.
Their tech support line is (713) 477-8100 - They don't always pick up the phone but keep trying.
Thanks, I'll give them a call. I heard something about the active grille shutters causing issues on the 8 spds.

What is the line between being selfish and communicating your needs?

The Golden Rule is not an injunction to impose one's will on someone else!
I understand it fine, nycindie. That was the whole point I was trying to make, though probably not as cleanly as I could.
"Platinum" is just derived from
Golden Rule
just like "Silver rule" is the "negative" side of Golden Rule. It's all part of the whole Golden Rule package. But the bottom line for me? I find that as a parent, when teaching my kid that stuff, it's a whole lot easier to get to the point and teach the kid
"platinum rule"
kinds of words.
What does a kid know but to take things very, very literally?
I have encountered some adults are that way also -- very, very literal.
So I find it saves trouble all around to just leave
no room
(or as little room possible) for misunderstanding. Just spit it out from the get go. "Treat others how they want to be treated" as a little maxim idea I find useful.
It could encourage approaching and asking the person -- "How do you want me to treat you? I'd like to be treated like this. Could we talk about that and get to know each others preferences?"
Couldn't trying that approach help the OP become more assertive about stating their needs?
If I ask the other guy how he'd like to be treated first, then explain some things I need as examples, it makes the other guy more agreeable to engaging in larger conversation with me about negotiating needs for all. Better than if I were to come at the other guy all bossyboots with "I need ____" kinds of laundry lists that could be misread as "demands" and get them on the defensive.
It's only a suggestion for the wording in the end -- others are free to use whatever phrasing serves them best when relating/negotiating with the people personalities they are dealing with in RL.

Staff report
The Warren Family Mission, 361 Elm Road NE, is having several free events during the Christmas season for which it needs donations of food, toys and money.
Saturday: 9:30 a.m. to noon, Winter Fest for children 12 and under; activities and breakfast.
Dec. 21: Parents/caregivers of registered children pick up toys at the times assigned to them. Items needed are new, unwrapped toys and gifts for children, newborn to teenagers.
Dec. 23, noon to 4 p.m.: Community Christmas Meal. Items needed include ham, instant potatoes, boxed pork stuffing, pineapple, salad, pork gravy, assorted cheeses, items for relish tray, items for punch, and rolls and butter.
Dec. 25, Christmas Day: 10 a.m. to 1 p.m., brunch for people who don't have family. Items needed include breakfast meats, hams, eggs, pancake mix, bread, pastries, butter, milk and juices.
Donations, including money or gift cards, can be dropped off at 2671 Youngstown Road SE, Warren, from 9 a.m. to 4 p.m. Monday through Friday or at 361 Elm Road NE, Warren, from 8 a.m. to 7 p.m. Monday through Sunday.
Monetary donations also can be made via the Warren Family Mission's website, www.warrenfamilymission.com, or by calling 330-394-5437.
Gee, the staff and administrators must not have enough take-home pay to buy everything their families want. I've been in and out of shelters for a while, and the theft of donations intended for the residents and other poor, especially the nice, new things, more than not wind up in the trunks of the people who are working there. It's sad, but I know it from experience, and it's not just a few, those places are rife with this kind of crap. Sharon preacherman said it right: "You have to give to the greedy to get to the needy". Ain't it the truth?
I just wish they would make anyone working in a shelter-type program take a few classes in ethics, morality, and conflict of interest sujects. Then a few outling the criminal codes for theft, etc.

A few months ago, I stumbled across the article, The Transforming Miracle of Marriage, online. It has really stuck with me because it points out how so often people think they want "out of" their marriage, job, or whatever, but what they really may be wanting is just a fresh start because they are so ashamed of what they've become.
See, a marriage is made up of two human beings who are going to make mistakes. Some mistakes are bigger than others, but the problems start when one person begins to feel such shame and failure that they decide that the marriage is what is a failure. They think they can't please the other person, but the truth is, they don't even like themselves very much.
Marriage can definitely be humbling: having someone there to see you at your best AND at your worst. Just think about the vows most us made at our weddings:
- for better or for worse
- for richer or poorer
- in sickness and in health
I'm convinced that God uses our marriages to help us to become more like Him: giving (even when the other person doesn't deserve it), patient, forgiving, and strong.
The author in this article says that he thinks that God designed marriage to make us holy, even more than to make us happy.
That reminds me of how Cesar Millan, The Dog Whisperer, says that even though a dog can be a challenge for us, it's specifically the dog we need because it forces us to develop the character needed to work with it. He doesn't look at dog training as "fixing" the dog. He looks at how the owner should be the leader finding a way to get what they want from their dog.
Rehabilitating a dog is not about "fixing" it. It's about you, the owner, creating the intention for what you want, not what you're feeling. Dogs pick up on feelings of fear, doubt, or worry – and they will move to fill them by attempting to become dominant.
Practice unwavering leadership every day, especially on your walk. The energy you're projecting internally is the message you're sending to your dog.
Think of that in relation to people. Do you find yourself always trying to "fix" the other person? Or do you feel like your spouse is always trying to "fix" you? That doesn't feel good from either side does it?
I like how Cesar gives tips at the end of the article on how to be the leader that your dog needs. Marriage is much more complicated than dog psychology, but perhaps you can see some similarities too:
- Dedicate at least 45 minutes of time to the dog's walk in the morning. Let the dog know you have a consistent pattern that you expect it to follow. (Consistently spend time with your spouse.)
- Don't expect more from your dog(s) than your own children. (Don't expect perfection.)
- Avoid nurturing your dog's fears or unstable mind. Imagine a successful scenario and hold it in your mind when dealing with your dog. (When your spouse is in a bad funk, try not to fall apart too. Love them unconditionally and talk about things they can look forward too, rather than just their troubles.)
- You are the source of your dog's energy. You are the role model. (Marriage isn't always 50/50. People struggle. Sometimes you have to be willing to go 80/20 or even 90/10. Ask God to give you the strength for that when your spouse is weak. Be positive!)
- Challenge the dog's mind – dogs want to know what to do with their lives. (Dream together. Have fun together. Don't let daily life grow stale.)
- Dogs need"on" and "off" time. Engage them fully in structured times together; then they can relax and avoid impatient or destructive behaviors. (Find ways that you can work/play together, and then also give them time to just do their own thing. We all have different needs sometimes.)
If you or a friend are struggling in a marriage, I hope you'll look beyond the circumstances and try to see the primary wounds or emotions that are creating the circumstances. God so desires to heal those wounds. Sometimes things are pretty complicated, and sometimes you can get pretty weary of dealing with the same issues over and over again, but it is so worth it and so much healthier in the long run if you can find a good Christian counselor and really work through things.
As the article says,
Marriage based on life in Christ invites us to divorce the lie—an idealized view of our spouse—and embrace reality—two sinful people sharing strengths, weaknesses, joys, and struggles in lifelong commitment. As the Whiteheads describe it, "The challenge is not to keep on loving the person we thought we were marrying, but to love the person we did marry!"
Yep, that's where the rubber meets the road. When we see our spouse (or ourself) at our worst and consciously choose to work through our issues, instead of thinking the grass is always greener on the other side.
Does any of this make sense? Did I lose you when I started comparing things to dog psychology? I just know what an impact that article made on me and thought I'd post it here to see if others could relate.
P.S. – Don't worry. My marriage isn't falling apart. I just know that Tony has stuck with me through some of my worst times this summer when I know that many others would have jumped ship.

This paper proposes a new control strategy for the islanded operation of a multi-bus medium voltage (MV) microgrid. The microgrid consists of several dispatchable electronically-coupled distributed generation (DG) units. Each DG unit supplies a local load which can be unbalanced due to the inclusion of single-phase loads. The proposed control strategy of each DG comprises a proportional resonance (PR) controller with an adjustable resonance frequency, a droop control strategy, and a negative-sequence impedance controller (NSIC). The PR and droop controllers are, respectively, used to regulate the load voltage and share the average power components among the DG units. The NSIC is used to effectively compensate the negative-sequence currents of the unbalanced loads and to improve the performance of the overall microgrid system. Moreover, the NSIC minimizes the negative-sequence currents in the MV lines and thus, improving the power quality of the microgrid. The performance of the proposed control strategy is verified by using digital time-domain simulation studies in the PSCAD/EMTDC software environment.

Authorities say it's a routine step, if booking a prominent member of Congress can be considered routine.
Congressman Tom DeLay is expected to appear at the sheriff's office in Fort Bend County, Texas, today. He'll be booked on state conspiracy and money-laundering charges.
A state court issued an arrest warrant yesterday for DeLay, requiring him to appear for booking. His initial bail was set at ten-thousand dollars. His first court appearance is set for tomorrow in Austin.
A police official says no time's been set for DeLay to report Thursday.
Two grand juries have charged DeLay and two others in an alleged scheme to violate state election law by funneling corporate donations to candidates for the Texas Legislature. State law prohibits using corporate donations to finance state campaigns.

I love your work...do you offer your pieces for sale?
I'd like to buy one of these. How much, and where can I purchase?
it looks like a painting of steel
Extraordinary. Love the soft flowing curves.
You're not going to 'blue' the bird?
you cant really blue stainless steel ,it will go gold with heat but it rubs off after a while ,would look cool tho i agree
I wonder if you could heat it up really hot and hit it with a copper or brass brush. I do this sometimes on iron to give it a bronze finish. I love it now, but my mind always goes to "what more is possible"?

In 1999 I got a gross misdemeanor charge. I received a diversion which I was young , 21 yrs. Never paid the $250 and in 2004 the diversion was revoked and now my gross misdemeanor shows on my record. My job wants to make me permanent but I'm afraid I won't pass their background check. Can I pay that money now and write the judge and ask for my revoked diversion back?
Criminal Defense Attorney
No. Depending on what the charge was, you may be able to vacate the conviction so that it does not appear on your criminal history as reported by the Washington State Patrol. Take a look at RCW 9.96.060.
Criminal Defense Attorney
I agree with Mr. Kertchen. It is too late to get the diversion back. But you may be able to vacate the conviction. That can take some time to get done, so you will want to contact an attorney to get started ASAP.
Criminal Defense Attorney
That is not at all likely. Most likely you will need to get it vacated. A lot of attorneys handle this type of thing. Your record since that incident will be key in determining if you can vacate or not. Sorry, but this is going to cost you a lot more than the original $250 you owed.

Origins: How the Nine Months Before Birth Shape the Rest of Our Livesby Annie Murphy Paul
View All Available Formats & Editions
What makes us the way we are? Some say it's the genes we inherit at conception. Others are sure it's the environment we experience in childhood.

What makes us the way we are? Some say it's the genes we inherit at conception. Others are sure it's the environment we experience in childhood. But could it be that many of our individual characteristics—our health, our intelligence, our temperaments—are influenced by the conditions we encountered before birth?
That's the claim of an exciting and provocative field known as fetal origins. Over the past twenty years, scientists have been developing a radically new understanding of our very earliest experiences and how they exert lasting effects on us from infancy well into adulthood. Their research offers a bold new view of pregnancy as a crucial staging ground for our health, ability, and well-being throughout life.
Author and journalist Annie Murphy Paul ventures into the laboratories of fetal researchers, interviews experts from around the world, and delves into the rich history of ideas about how we're shaped before birth. She discovers dramatic stories: how individuals gestated during the Nazi siege of Holland in World War II are still feeling its consequences decades later; how pregnant women who experienced the 9/11 attacks passed their trauma on to their offspring in the womb; how a lab accident led to the discovery of a common household chemical that can harm the developing fetus; how the study of a century-old flu pandemic reveals the high personal and societal costs of poor prenatal experience.
Origins also brings to light astonishing scientific findings: how a single exposure to an environmental toxin may produce damage that is passed on to multiple generations; how conditions as varied as diabetes, heart disease, and mental illness may get their start in utero; why the womb is medicine's latest target for the promotion of lifelong health, from preventing cancer to reducing obesity. The fetus is not an inert being, but an active and dynamic creature, responding and adapting as it readies itself for life in the particular world it will enter. The pregnant woman is not merely a source of potential harm to her fetus, as she is so often reminded, but a source of influence on her future child that is far more powerful and positive than we ever knew. And pregnancy is not a nine-month wait for the big event of birth, but a momentous period unto itself, a cradle of individual strength and wellness and a crucible of public health and social equality.
With the intimacy of a personal memoir and the sweep of a scientific revolution, Origins presents a stunning new vision of our beginnings that will change the way you think about yourself, your children, and human nature itself.
Editorial Reviews
"Annie Murphy Paul, a gifted science writer, combines impeccable science, extraordinary tenderness and lyrical prose to produce a truly revolutionary chronicle of pregnancy. In Origins, she shows that pregnancy is not a condition to be endured but the first nine months of being a mother, a time full of far-reaching choices. Origins is sweet, smart and very fresh. You'll never think about pregnancy the same way again."—Sylvia Nasar, author, A Beautiful Mind
"Origins is, quite simply, a must-read for parents-in-waiting—and for anyone interested in what makes us who we are. Paul has written a superb introduction to the emerging science of fetal origins. There are still a lot more questions than answers, but this book shows how science is at long last engaging deeply with the reality that a pregnant woman's lifestyle can dramatically impact the future life of her child." David Shenk, author of The Genius in All of Us and The Forgetting
"What goes on during pregnancy is a scientific puzzle as mysterious and fascinating as what goes on inside an atom. In Origins, Annie Murphy Paul probes the murky realm in which our futures as human beings are forged. She combines in-depth reporting on cutting-edge research with a personal memoir of her own pregnancy and the anxieties and insights it produced. The result is an important, elegant piece of science writing."
Carl Zimmer, author of Soul Made Flesh The Tangled Bank: An Introduction to Evolution
"This is a terrific book on a fascinating and largely unexplored subject—the mysteries of prenatal development. It is lucid, scientifically accurate and clear and gracefully written. Combining good science and a personal perspective is rare, especially in writing about children and motherhood, but Annie Paul has accomplished it beautifully."—Alison Gopnik, author of The Scientist in the Crib and The Philosophical Baby
Origins is that rare, beautiful, wonderful bird of a book: As engrossing as a good novel and informed by impactful, cutting-edge research. Origins is an absolute must-read for expectant mothers and everyone who cares about them what you learn here could make your baby healthier, stronger, and even smarter. Best of all, the information unfolds in chapters structured around the 9 months of the author's own pregnancy, giving the book the momentum of a personal story (will she have a girl or a boy? how will the birth go?) A thoroughly enjoyable, readable look into amazing research with real consequences.
Jean Twenge, author of Generation Me
"As the author delves deeply into the vulnerabilities of the prenatal environment, she comes away with a compelling sense of the importance of how society cares for and supports pregnant women...Paul's thought-provoking text reveals that this pivotal period may be even more significant and far-reaching than ever imagined." PW
"Paul is honorable about examining the scientific, social and moral complexities of her subject." Perri Klass, The Washington Post
"Tobacco, heavy drinking, illegal drugs, depression: We seem to grasp that these aren't healthy for anyone, let alone a pregnant woman. But just what effect do the things that women inhale, consume and experience have on a fetus? In "Origins," Annie Murphy Paul sets out to discover the answer. Along the way she explodes myths, reviews scientific evidence and explores the new frontier of fetal-origins research, the study of how we are shaped in utero by a combination of genes and environment." The Wall Street Journal
" Origins: How the Nine Months Before Birth Shape the Rest of Our Lives, documents [Annie Murphy Paul's] fascinating journey into the emerging science of fetal origins - and how knowledge made her feel more in control. " The Toronto Star

Minneapolis among best cities for recent college grads, study says
Minneapolis Convention & Visitors Bureau
Studies published both last year and in 2012 ranked the Twin Cities among the top 10 metros for college grads. A new study published by Livability.com indicates that remains the case this year, at least as far as Minneapolis is concerned.
The study ranks Minneapolis as the fifth-best city in the country for recent college grads.

Livability's algorithm accounts for the number of 25- to 34-year-olds, unemployment rate, rental vacancy and costs, non-service jobs (though service sector workers do well here due to our lack of a minimum-wage exception for tipped workers), public transportation users, 25- to 34-year-olds with a bachelor's degree or higher, and bars and restaurants per capita.
You can read all about what the study has to say about Minneapolis in particular here.
Reached for comment this afternoon, Kate Brickman, spokesperson for Mayor Betsy Hodges, says, "It's great to see Minneapolis getting this recognition as a great place for college graduates."
"If we're going to grow the city, which is one of Mayor Hodges' top priorities, we need to attract young people," Brickman continues. "We know that when people come to Minneapolis, they fall in love; then they stay and build a life here. The key is getting people to come here."
Here's the entire top 10:

First Trimester 2nd Trimester 3rd Trimester
242 days to go...
Your baby today
A front view of the embryo: the head region is bent downward so that the central nervous system can be seen. The tubelike structure in the head region is the developing spinal cord. The tail of the embryo is curving upward.
Morning sickness is one of the most common and least welcome symptoms of pregnancy.
Feeling sick and vomiting are common symptoms of early pregnancy. There are various theories to explain why morning sickness occurs; one is that it's due to the rising levels of hCG (human chorionic gonadotrophin) hormone during the first trimester. Morning sickness, unfortunately, doesn't only happen before breakfast; in fact it can happen at any time of day and more than once in 24 hours.
One of the greatest challenges of early pregnancy is keeping it a secret from colleagues. If you have to keep rushing to the bathroom to vomit, people are likely to become suspicious. They may also notice that you look unwell or are more tired than usual. To help you handle this, you may want to tell one or two colleagues or your boss. You could ask them to keep it a secret for the time being. It's a good idea to keep some face wipes, toothpaste, and a toothbrush in your drawer, together with any snacks that you have found help to ease your nausea.
If you're finding it difficult to handle your vomiting, or are worried you are vomiting too much, seek advice from your doctor. Rarely, the sickness can become more serious and require medical treatment (see You are 8 Weeks and 3 Days).
Focus On... Health
Ease the nausea
Unfortunately there is no definitive cure-all for morning sickness, though you could try the following natural remedies:
- Eat little and often-having low blood-sugar levels may make the nausea worse so even if you feel sick, eating small snacks may help.
- Try eating a plain cookie or cracker first thing in the morning before you get out of bed.
- Stick to bland foods such as cereal or toast and avoid eating fatty and oily foods.
- Try having foods and drinks that contain ginger such as gingersnaps or ginger tea.
- Drink plenty if you are vomiting, to avoid becoming dehydrated. Put a bottle of water in the fridge and sip it gradually throughout the day. If you feel you are getting dehydrated, for example if your urine is getting very concentrated, you may need to see a doctor.
If the nausea or vomiting is too much to bear, then consult your doctor, who will be able to prescribe anti-nausea medications.
As A Matter Of Fact
Ginger has been shown in studies to help with pregnancy-induced nausea.
One study found that the decrease in nausea happened four days after including ginger in the diet daily; so don't give up if you don't get relief right away. Try crystallized ginger chews or tasty ginger cookies; drink soothing ginger tea; and try cooking with fresh ginger. Be aware that most ginger ale does not contain real ginger, so is unlikely to ease nausea.

HACE's mission is to combat community deterioration through economic development initiatives that address commercial revitalization, employment opportunities, the creation of safe affordable housing, and the provision of support services to meet the needs of the community residents toward re-building the neighborhood's economic base. We focus on the possible and work to restore our primary neighborhood so that residents will benefit from sound investments while improving their quality of life.We have an exceptionally productive track record. Families, our seniors and our disabled residents live in more than 300 housing units built by HACE.Support Services are a critical component of community development, as it is these services that enable families and individuals to function as committed and productive members of the community, capable of stabilizing and maintaining their neighborhood(s) to ensure a quality environment in which to live and raise a family. HACE's Support Services program seeks to improve the quality of life of each constituent and resident. Support Service initiatives are a key component of HACE's affordable housing developments. The founding of HACE Management Company (HMC) in 1997 was also a critical component in effectively implementing these initiatives, as HMC provides a direct link between the CDC, the Support Services staff and the residents. HACE Management Company which is responsible for managing all of HACE's housing units aids in maintaining direct and open lines of communication with residents, enabling the overall organization to better determine and meet resident needs.
HACE's Resident Services staff is available daily to assist residents on an as needed basis. In addition, volunteers are recruited to assist the Resident Services staff in effectively implementing many of the programs that are offered. Residents are provided with on site Support Services programs and links to other services in the community. Informative lectures are scheduled regularly and address topics of concern and interest to residents and the community at large (refer to list of Lectures). Ongoing programs include a Women's Support Group, Resident Council, and Town Watch programs. Holiday events, back to school events and special adult and youth forums are also offered. Annually, from July to September the Villas Del Caribe Summer Program is open to resident youth. The program provides cultural enrichment, social interaction, recreation and educational programs. It is designed to enhance the overall well being and quality of life of the participating youth. The impact of this program helps to counter less positive influences and enticements common in many urban communities. During the school semester the Villas Del Caribe After School Program replaces the Summer Program for resident youth. Each of our programs is designed to encourage and foster self-sufficiency in a supportive atmosphere.

The Murder Notebook (Paperback)
Usually Ships in 1-5 Days
Brilliantly blending his extraordinary talents, world-renowned artist and critically acclaimed crime novelist Jonathan Santlofer offers a unique amalgam of invention and terror.
The story begins with the skull of a slaughtered "John Doe," burned beyond recognition. More bodies turn up--the corpses of victims . . . and their killers. NYPD forensic sketch artist Nate Rodriguez is certain a common thread connects the gruesome wave of apparent murder-suicides, but, plagued by the mystery of his father's death years ago, he must quiet his personal demons as he searches the shadows for answers--and uncovers a nightmare.
About the Author
Jonathan Santlofer is the author of five novels and a highly respected artist whose work has been written about and reviewed in the New York Times, Art in America, Artforum, and Arts, and which appears in many public, private, and corporate collections. He lives and works in New York City.

Hello. I am looking for a WP plug-in which will do one thing, and one thing only: Automatically syndicate my WP blog entries to my Google+ page, just as I now automatically syndicate to Tumblr, MySpace, Twitter and Facebook.
I have searched through about 35 WP plug-in pages, searched this forum, and searched the web, but I have still come up empty-handed.
Does such a WP to Google+ plug-in exist yet, or is Google making it difficult to develop one?
Thanks so much!

I have setup sympa with postfix. I am having problems with creating lists. Everytime I create a list I get this in my /var/log/apache2/error.log:
postalias: fatal: open /etc/aliases.db: Permission denied
Failed to execute newaliases: Inappropriate ioctl for device
I tried removing aliases.db and manually using postalias, but alas. The problem doesn't show however when I restart postfix, so I think it is the fast cgi script trying to update the alias files for postfix.
