How to cover ugly apartment blinds and a DIY fail...Friday, August 03, 2012
47 comments
I LOVE this!!! It looks so beautiful and definitely something I could attempt. My husband and I just put in an offer on a condo that has blinds like that and it's one of the first things I want to change. I love your suggestion and will definitely refer back to this. Thanks for sharing!ReplyDelete
next time (if there is one) try diluting the paint with water you will have to do a few extra coats (like six) but it shouldn't get crusty/plasticy. And to keep from the white from getting paint drip is to cover the sections completely with tape or tape & plastic that you don't want paint on. and when things don't work out as planned I tend to throw a fit then get over it.ReplyDelete
I love the grey curtains more then the strips anyway! They add a feminine touch that is so classy and chic looking! Great choice!!!ReplyDelete
I love the print you ended up choosing. They look great! I hear you on the renting thing. Of course there are benefits to not having to commit to anything long term, but then you're inevitably stuck with something that doesn't quite work. I think you went with a good alternative! And those would look great in a new home too :)ReplyDelete
Very pretty! I'm a HUGE Pinterest fan, but usually that's how my projucts turn out unfortunately!ReplyDelete
That stinks that it didn't work out, but I LOVE the curtains that you did end up getting.ReplyDelete
love what you ended up with. very creative way to hide the vertical blinds! love it!ReplyDelete
Aw, I hate to see a DIY fail bc I have had many and I know the blood sweat and tears behind them BUT the new curtains are awesome!! I may steal for my house!ReplyDelete
Love this post! With so many DIY projects on blogs/pinterest, it's nice to remind ourselves that it's okay to fail.ReplyDelete
The curtains your ended up going with are adorable! Hope you have a great weekend xox
I actually did the striped curtain DIY and it was a lot more time consuming than I thought. Since I live in a basement apt I don't get as much light but I think I would have the same problem with the light shining through. I love the curtains you ended up with though!ReplyDelete
THE EXACT SAME THING HAPPENED TO ME - mine looked terrible! Fortunately I only did one of the two panels and then just threw in the towel and gave up. They look so cute on all the blogs, but in reality, they are super challenging. Glad I'm not the only one!ReplyDelete
love the curtains you ended up with! I'm actually needing new curtains for my room and those are perfect! I may need to get them :)ReplyDelete
Loving your blog!
You might have failed the first time but not the second time! We definitely learn from our mistakes and DIY projects are no easy task. I once followed a DIY roman shade that I got from a site and it turned out really bad, horrible in fact! But, your new curtain looks nice!ReplyDelete

I'm confused on where exactly you put the curtain rod, did you have to screw it to the wall?? (definite "NO" in our apartment)ReplyDelete
At least you attempted it though - I think that anything to do with curtains is difficult especially when they're unlined. You're braver than me for trying!ReplyDelete

I've always tried to understand why apartment complexes always go with those tacky plastic blinds. I have yet to find ANYONE who likes them. My husband and I took off each individual plastic piece and stored them away. Then, we simply hung a curtain rod and found some pretty, cheap, curtains from TJ Maxx. They're dark enough to keep out the light but we always pull them back during the day to let in the natural light. Thanks for sharing your real-life experience and how you coped with it! :)ReplyDelete
Kelly, silly question maybe but when you hung your curtain rod, did you have to drill into the wall?Delete
The answer is here!! You can hang curtains with no nails, screws, holes and tools. Hang your curtains like a Pro quickly, attaches to blind header. Genius! Visit our website at www.curtain-clip.com, Facebook - https://www.facebook.com/pages/Curtain-Clipcom/659072517560039ReplyDelete

Energy innovation needed despite oil, gas boom
The United States is well on its way to becoming virtually energy independent in less than two decades, in no small part because "fracking" and other technologies are unlocking new supplies of oil and natural gas within our borders.
That's great news for an economy that seems permanently stuck in neutral. However, it's unnerving for those who believe prolonged reliance on fossil fuels will curb conservation, reduce innovation and accelerate potentially disastrous climate change. »Read Full Article(1)
Mining measure changes backed by Gogebic lobbyist
A representative of the company at the center of the debate over state mining laws says a bill that lost narrowly in March remains the best hope to revive a plan to build an iron ore mine in northern Wisconsin.
"They've got kind of a wait-and-see attitude," said Bob Seitz, a lobbyist for Gogebic Taconite, which proposed a $1.5 billion iron ore mine in Ashland and Iron counties. »Read Full Article(149)

Diorshow is not the greatest mascara out there, but it's the one my lashes like the best. I always get it in the shade Noir. The brush is rather large, but I find that helps to separate my lashes from each other when I'm applying it. There is a slight rose scent to the product. There's a very natural finish to my lashes, which is perfect for me. The reason I keep coming back to this mascara is that for some reason it helps my lashes regrow after they've broken off or undergone some other atrocity with another mascara. I don't know why it helps my lashes regrow, but if my lashes like it why mess with a good thing?

An international team led by scientists at the University of Arizona and the U.S. Department of Agriculture has discovered what happens on a molecular basis in insects that evolved resistance to genetically engineered cotton plants.
The findings, reported in the May 19 issue of the journal PLOS ONE, shed light on how the global caterpillar pest called pink bollworm overcomes biotech cotton, which was designed to make an insect-killing bacterial protein called Bt toxin. The results could have major impacts for managing pest resistance to Bt crops.
Caterpillars of the pink bollworm are one of the most detrimental pests to cotton production worldwide. First detected in the U.S. in 1917, this invasive insect species wreaked havoc on Arizona's cotton-growing industry, with larvae infesting as many as every other cotton boll (the fruit capsule containing the valuable fibers).
A breakthrough came in 1996 with the introduction of Bt cotton, a genetically engineered crop containing a gene transferred from the bacterium, Bacillus thuringensis, endowing the plants with a protein that kills some, but not all insects. Organic growers have used Bt proteins in sprays for decades because they kill certain pests but are not toxic to people and most other organisms. Pest control with Bt proteins – either in sprays or genetically engineered crops – reduces reliance on chemical insecticides. Although Bt proteins provide environmental and economic benefits, these benefits are cut short when pests evolve resistance.
"Bt crops have had major benefits for society," said Jeffrey Fabrick, the lead author of the study and a research entomologist at the USDA Agricultural Research Service in Maricopa, Arizona. "By understanding how insects adapt to Bt crops we can devise better strategies to delay the evolution of resistance and extend these benefits."
"Many mechanisms of resistance to Bt proteins have been proposed and studied in the lab, but this is the first analysis of the molecular genetic basis of severe pest resistance to a Bt crop in the field," said Bruce Tabashnik, one of the paper's authors and the head of the Department of Entomology in the UA College of Agriculture and Life Sciences. He also is a member of the UA's BIO5 Institute.
Check out the rest of this May 2014 UANews article at the link below.
Based on laboratory experiments aimed at determining the molecular mechanisms involved, scientists knew that pink bollworm could evolve resistance against the Bt toxin, but they had to go all the way to India to observe this happening in the field.More Information

The fact that the dynamics of the blood flow response are affected by how intently observers view the visual display indicates that more than just the physical character of the stimulus determines the nature of the blood flow response. In the latter case, the blood flow changes were lateralized to the left MCA, as might be anticipated from left-hemispheric dominance in the processing of auditory language (Hellige, 1991).
Passive listening led to bilateral increases in blood flow in the MCA, while in the active mode, blood flow increments were lateralized to the right hemisphere (Matteis, Silvestrini, Troisi, Cupini, & Caltagirone, 1993.

However, changes in cerebral blood flow are not limited to visual stimuli.
Observers listened to musical passages in either a passive mode or under conditions in which they had to identify or recognize the melodies that they heard, in other studies.

Schedule Interruption (cont)on 10/12/2014 at 9:24 pm
I just wanted to let everyone know what was going on with me, because I know when the comic misses updates people get worried about whether I'm okay.
I am working on the comic today, and if I'm able to finish it, I'll post it on time tonight. If not then I'll be saving it until next Monday, because I have to work the rest of this week.
I had a tooth pulled on last Wednesday. I've been trying to save up enough money to get some dental work done for a while now, but suddenly I was in a lot of pain, so I went in. They told me they wouldn't be able to save the tooth with a root canal anymore, and had to extract it. So I lost a back molar and it was really painful. I've been on medication for the pain so I'm not feeling much, but it makes my head all mushy and I have trouble concentrating.
I'm also sick with a pretty terrible cold, and cold medicine doesn't help the brain-fuzziness either. Just a big cocktail of loopy pills.
That's why I'm not entirely certain I can make my usual Monday deadline, and I just wanted to tell you guys about it beforehand.

If Not an Actor, Robert Pattinson Would Host Antique Show
Robert Pattinson has an alternative line of work in mind if his "Twilight" fame dries up - he dreams of fronting an antiques programme. The British actor, best known for his portrayal of vampire hunk Edward Cullen in the blood-sucking franchise, grew up watching classic U.K. TV show "Antiques Roadshow", in which experts value heirlooms.
Pattinson insists he's still a fan of the series - and would jump at the chance to present it. He says, "I don't think there was a kid back home who didn't watch Antiques Roadshow with their parents on a Sunday night... I used to love it, I think secretly every kid did, but it's not the coolest thing to admit."
"I love the faces of the posh people when they think that something is going to be valued at more than it is, and when it's under they are gutted (disappointed). I also love the faces of the genuine people who have found something in their loft. When they find out what it is worth they are genuinely delighted and you know it's going to change their life."
"I would love to be presenting the show when some little old dear from Burnley (in Lancashire, England) comes in with a genuine Picasso or Rembrandt worth 5 million pounds."

Thanks, M! With the adventurous route this conversation took, it's a miracle you could find your way back to this photo! And I will say one thing for the habit Guy started of jumping around from photo to photo to make carry on a conversation: For a few minutes in time, all parts of a conversation might be visible listed there on the comment list, each made on a separate photo. But then again, if someone else comes in and makes a comment, all bets are off, and the conversation comes to a screeching halt!

Hi Ippa - Thanks!
Yellow star for a "blue" moon
Well Tery, I was going to link you here for the fire ant saga, but here you are, the story takes many twists from here.
Thanx Guy I had been here admiring the photo trying to figure out what the fire ants had to do with it and the thought those red lights were metaphoric fire ants to go with the moon snag and then I laughed so hard about you telling Gnarly to turn off the comupter that almost forget the yellow star.
Hi There - thanks for dredging this one up to the top of the heap, Tery, and for the YS! So funny - when I saw your comments this morning, I'd just returned from having been to this very spot, and I'd been standing there watching my feet verrrrryyy often to be sure I didn't have any visitors.
Hard to tell, Tery - I never saw them!!!!
Yeah when you are dancing around with those little blighters you don't take time to get out the microscope.
Is there a list of Spammers some where as a guide to who to avoid? I've got one figured.
lol, Tery - with these the problem was I had no idea they were crawling on my feet. I thought it was just some really nasty mosquitoes. Took me a few days of pain and swollen feet with bites in tracks around them til I realized what must have attacked me.

Archive for the 'America' Category
A Weathered #fabledcity
New York- For close to two years now I've been putting up ink jet analog prints up around three of New York City's five boroughs and in my favorite locales in EU Mediterranean states as part of my #fabledcity project about the glory of an antediluvian realm that in our time is the stuff of legend.
I plan to install more along the eastern seaboard in in the American Southwest as soon as I am able. The prints hail from before I purchased my first digital camera in January of 2005. I was way behind the curve in hyper competitive journalism terms. I simply couldn't compete monetarily. While some journos acquired the first generation of DSLRs en route to northern Afghanistan in 2001, by February or March 2003, the big names/outlets had gone digital. I hadn't.
When I departed San Diego from Iraq at the time, I faced a stark choice. I could either shoot the aftermath of the invasion or sit on the couch with a low quality DSLR at home. I chose the former. The #fabledcity project is about the arc of my analog photography before and thence after 9/11. Throughout the early years of the so-called 'war on terror' I remained enthralled by the allure of ancient sites. The politics of our time were a vehicle for me to experience the majesty of the ancients.
After decompressing in Amman, I quickly made my way down to Aqaba and on to the Sinai and the Nile Valley. Well I sunburned my back so badly snorkeling at the precarious Blue Hole outside Dahab I jumped on an overnight bus to Luxor. It was the essence of Mubarak-era Egypt. Checkpoints, mukharbarat, simmering palpable resentment among the native inhabitants of the Sinai. Upon reaching Luxor I had to run from shadow to shadow in the Great Hypostyle Hall because the sun hitting my t-shirt was unbearable. Finally I reached to Temple of Amun-Re where austere the god-kings stood surveying the stone. The nightmare in Iraq that was just getting underway was well behind me.
Nothing would stop me from seeing this world.
Walk It Home
New York- A couple of photos of mine from the 'Summer War' in 2006-era Lebanon are featured in a new documentary film on The Wanton Bishops, a Lebanese blues band that subsequently tours the heartland of the blues in the southern United States.
The film, titled Walk It Home, also explores the Beirut music scene where to be a full time musician is neither easily done nor conceived of as normal is mainstream Lebanese society. Pursuing one's rock dreams is difficult anywhere under the best of circumstances but to have accomplished such from the Beiruti milieu is a far greater task. I'm happy to have made a small contribution to this film.
Ground Zero: My Photographs from 9/11/01 to 9/11/11
Paros- Four years ago today I finished this decade-long documentary project about what was then called ground Zero in lower Manhattan. When 9/11 took place in my city, I told myself I would follow the story wherever I could for as long as I could. It took me to Tajikistan, Afghanistan, Turkmenistan, Hamburg, the Republic of Georgia, Jordan, Iraq, Bangkok, Malaysia, and countless other locales as the "War on Terror" unfolded. I then kept returning to New York City, my home, for each subsequent anniversary.
Ground Zero is now the site of One World Trade Center, a hub for New York City's tourism industry. The city has been rebuilt where it was thrashed by the largest suicide attack in history. Ground Zero buzzes with curious visitors posting the requisite photos to social media but the memory lays there, heaving with silent grief underneath flowing water and cool black stone.
9/11 unequivocally changed our world. We are living in a less safe, less just world today in my judgement. Freedoms have been curtailed as the United States has evolved into a low key surveillance state in response. Afghanistan is still in a state of war. Iraq has been broken likely irreparably. Then the 'Arab Spring' happened. It resulted not in a well spring of democratic growth as many initially hoped but inadvertently acted as an enabling factor for the spread of cancerous salafi-jihadi ideology to the point of holding territory by the most vile of non-state actors.
9/11 must be remembered with calm dignity, not be opportunistically exploited with jingoism or crass populism. A vigil of the spirit.
New York- Milling around the the 9/11 memorial the other day, I looked at one random, small cluster of names engraved above on of the two massive cascading fountains where the roots of the twin towers once intertwined with the earth. Though 9/11 is described as an attack on the United States or an attack on the West as a whole. reading over this small list made it feel as if the mass casualty event in New York was an attack on globalization itself for lack of a better term.
In this sample of victims it jumped out at me that one of them–Ehtesham Raja–was Pakistani. Then scanning across, I read Karamo Baba Trerra which appeared to be a West African Muslim name. Indeed he was Gambian. Then there is Jie Yao Justin Zhao from Guangzhou, China. Then Joyce Rose Cummings. a Trinidadian. The sole American in the frame of my photo is Donald Joseph Tuzio who'd lost his job and was only in the WTC that day to take part in a job-hunting workshop that was a mandatory component of his buyout package.
The diversity in just these five names–two of whom were Muslim–demonstrates that 9/11 was a global event whose magnitude devastated families from the Caribbean to China, from West Africa to South Asia. When I would photograph the anniversaries over the years at what was then referred to as Ground Zero, I was always struck by the diversity of families who arrived to collectively grieve and remember. Al-Qaeda killed Muslims from the beginning. Many of the victims in the East Africa embassy attacks were adherents. Most of the victims of salafist terrorism today are in fact Muslim.
While for me seeing the footprints of the towers evokes a somber feeling, the memorial is a place buzzing with life. Every visitor has a smartphone. People are smiling taking photos as tourists tend to do when on holiday. Then a policeman walks by and wipes the dewy spring moisture off of one particular name as if to honor it. I notice a rose on Mother's Day wedged into the name of a victim who was carrying an unborn child. A place that once stood as global business incarnate with people from around the world is now host to every imaginable emotion in the spectrum.
Twenty Years
New York- It's such an obvious thing to say but it's really hard to believe it's been two solid decades since the Oklahoma City bombing on April 19, 1995. I viscerally remember sitting in the dormitory at San Diego State University when a friend had the news on. He was from Fontana but had Oklahoma roots and was deeply saddened. I remember that one crackpot analyst being so sure that it was Islamist (Salafist in today's speak) in nature and how incredibly wrong he was.
That vast tragedy overshadowed the 1993 World Trade Center bombing in terms of both the number of casualties and the fact that it forced–for a time–a paradigm shift about how we think about terrorism. With the East Africa bombings in August 1998, the threat of domestic terrorism was once again diminished in the face of an external threat. Al-qaeda with its obscurantist worldview was seemingly more easily interpreted from a national security standpoint than those in league with Timothy McVeigh and Terry Nichols. Those whose duty it is to protect the land from attacks must be analytically agile and intellectually nimble in order to reevaluate the constantly shifting threat landscape.
The memorial is beautiful yet somber. It is a symbol of tragedy and renewal.
It's Morning in Iran…Maybe
New York- Regarding the planned nuclear deal to be reached by late June, Iranian President Hasan Rouhani announced "Today is a day that will remain in the historic memory of the Iranian nation." Could a statement like this indicate the Islamic Republic is finally falling back into line with the Great Power political order after decades of U.S. estrangement? Possibly. Are there leagues of people who desperately seek to derail such an initiative? Undoubtedly.
Without getting into the granular details of the proposed quid pro quo arrangement whereby Iran will cull centrifuges in exchange for the letting up of sanctions, my angle is how the battle for Tikrit in neighboring Iraq and the coming battle for Mosul factors into this.
Part of what I suspect has changed the decades long game in toxic U.S.-Iran relations is the rise of the Islamic State. President Obama met one of his campaign foreign policy goals by fully withdrawing American military personnel from Iraq (minus those protecting the gargantuan embassy in Baghdad). Guantanamo hasn't closed and Afghanistan is still festering. Iraq seemed like something of an accomplishment. But when I visited Iraq in mid-2013, it was clear to me that the Pentagon had left behind a fractious mess that was vulnerable to infiltration by non-state groups working to undermine both the Kurds and the then highly divisive Maliki government.
Then we have the twitter-fueled IS takeover of Mosul with a nascent state building to create a salafi-hihadi entity bent on perpetual warfare until an apocalyptic utopia can be achieved. Now as things stand, the Americans and Iranians are working together if purely by default. Notorious militias like the Badr Organization and Asaib Ahl al-Haq have been battling IS with bravado during the siege of Tikrit. Of course, American military planners don't want to work with Iranian-backed war fighting groups in Iraq. War, however, is not about the ideal. It's much more often about the pragmatic.
Military planning is constantly a re-evalutation of the lesser of evils on the battlefield. The least worst option always seems better than total defeat. In the Second World War, the Allies partnered with Stalin to defeat the Axis and achieve the near term goals of eradicating fascism from Europe and Pacific. This led to the death of tens of millions of Soviets both in the Red Army on the battlefront and then those who were felled in the Great Terror, Great Purge, ethnic deportations of nationalities collectively accused of Nazi collaboration and the Gulag system. The Cold War and the nuclear arms race immediately followed the Axis defeats.
For the US to preserve what little is has left in Iraq, it will have to work with those it has been fighting in the mid-2000s. This is not to the liking of the Israelis and their vast support network here in the United States. Nor does it please King Salman and the House of Saud who operate in a bizarre realm where the theological and geopolitical are conflated to the detriment of an entire region. In turn the U.S. is supporting the un-imaginitively named Operation Decisive Storm to rout the Houthis in Yemen which sort of proves that the Americans aren't taking sides in ancient Sunni-Shia fitna. The Israelis and the Saudis have traditionally had a common goal of keeping the Iranians isolated by the U.S. but this paradigm looks to be both shifting as well as no longer sustainable.
I'm not saying the decades of mistrust will suddenly evaporate in a few months time. But the de facto cooperation for lack of a better term on Tikrit may be a prelude to the eradication of IS from Mosul. The Iraqi military simply isn't up to the task. It has neither the willpower nor the esprit de corps to effectively carry out this mission in my view. One thing endemic to battlefields is that alliances shift with time owing to perceived necessity.
The Beginning or End of Iraq
New York- I've been delving through my archives of late in preparation for an upcoming series of television appearances the rise of dictatorships mostly in the latter half of the twentieth century. Poring over my stock from Baghdad and thinking about the current offensive to retake Tikrit, it all just seems so utterly unnecessary. How many times can the Republic of Iraq be torn asunder? For years, people have predicted Iraq's imminent: demise, federalization, breakup, fissuring, and even inevitable unity based on the fact that Iraq has stayed together this long. The central government just seems to plod forward, rudderless, ill adept at maintaining control of the whole of its territory.
Whether Iraq will hold together as a single political geographic entity or can't stop from breaking up is neither inevitable nor unthinkable. What is not terribly helpful is the sheer polarity of such predictions that often don't consider the interests of ordinary Iraqis who have been in a state of war or siege essentially since 1980.
The Imperiled Fate of Historic Sites in Iraq
New York- With each coming day lately there is a new tragedy being announced by the takfiri evangelists who refer to themselves as ad-Dawlah al-Islamiyyah (the Islamic State). With a campaign noted for executions believed to be taking place in ar-Raqqah Governorate and sieges upon the bastions of religious minorities or anyone is simple doesn't adhere to takfir practices, IS risked the global public becoming inured to their atrocities. So their latest meme is destroying artifacts and smashing some of the Levant's most prized ancient sites in parts of Ninewa Governorate under their control.
My interest in the Middle East began not with its intermittent warfare but with its rich archaeological history. My first trip to the region was to help excavate King Herod's palace in Caesarea Maritima, not to cover an adrenaline-fueled war. As is my luck, war broke out during that dig between the IDF and Hezbollah. Suddenly digging around the biblical building blocks of the ancients felt somewhat irrelevant.
What they are doing is not complete foreign in contemporary Islam as the state-orchestrated destruction of sites in Saudi Arabia is in keeping with Wahabi ideology that forbids the worshipping of ancestry lest it be deemed a form of shirk (idolatry) that runs counter to the narrowest interpretation of tawhid (monotheism) and is at least partly intended to marginalize Shia religious practices within the boundaries of the Kingdom.
Little to no global outcry has slowed the demolition of holy sites in both Mecca and Medina. The Saudi monarchy has been obliterating history in accordance with its state-sanctioned ideology since the mid-1920s under the auspices of purifying the Arabian Peninsula. Many holy places in Mecca have been simply bulldozed to make way for mass market capitalism. Profit has replaced the physical history of the prophet. In a sense IS is continuing this policy writ large against Muslim, non-Muslim and pre-Islamic sites alike.
In March 2001 when when a Taliban set out to demolish the Hellenist-inflected Buddhas of Bamyan in central Afghanistan's Shia-majority Hazarajat region, it was speculated that the Deobandi Islamists did so to thumb their nose at the world that isolated their largely unrecognized regime while collectively punishing the Hazara minority who they'd fought to bitterly in Mazar-e-Sharif in 1997-1998. The comparisons to the crime in Bamyan were inevitable. The reported razing of Hatra is but the latest of atrocities against Iraqi, and well pre-Islamic civilizational history of all mankind, following the demolishing of statues inside the unguarded Mosul museum, and destruction at the Assyrian capital of Nimrud and Ninevah.
One of Iraq's greatest Islamic monuments from the height of the Absassid caliphate is the spiral minaret known as the Malwiyya in Samarra. Along the banks of the Tigris, Samarra sits about midway between Balad and Tikrit–where a large scale offensive is currently under way–in a hotly contested area between the Iraqi state and its allied Iranian-backed Shia militia movements versus IS.
Ostensibly the Malwiyya would not be slated for IS destruction as it represents a pillar of Sunni religio-cultural history, is in no way idolatrous, and does not depict graven imagery. But I'm being far too logical in my assessment I suppose. In its wedding cake-like tiers, it is somewhat evocative of, if not inspired by, a ziggurat.
When the U.S. military barged into Iraq in March 2003, vandalizing Iraq's Ba'athist history, namely the iconography of Saddam Hussein's carefully crafted personality cult, seemed to be part of official Pentagon policy. Iraq had been vilified ever since the invasion of Kuwait in August 1990 and the ensuing Gulf War in 1991 that sent Iraqi troops retreating along the "highway of death"where stifled images showed the cruelty of such a precision air war.
Although Iraq, and to a lesser extent neighboring Syria, are thought of as the 'cradle of civilization,' this geography has known little other than war and deep, violent internal repression for decades. Iraq's culture coupled with the civilizational landmarks that remain within its present day geographical boundaries have not been incentivized to be respected. Aside from the well publicized destruction such as that which occurred in the Mosul museum, there has been widespread looting of sites for years to fund criminal enterprises and now outright salafi-jihad. The destruction gets the attention, the looting nets the income.
Thus the IS assault on the country's treasures in Ninewa comes as no shock. There is also a knee jerk response in social media that if one emotes a deep, genuine sadness for such an immeasurable loss, that one is somehow lessening the ongoing loss of human life in these places. It is as if the intertwined plights of history and humanity are inherently mutually exclusive. This makes advocating for these treasures appear to be a possibly insensitive act.
Preserving Iraq's vulnerable heritage was never explicitly part of the occupational mandate of U.S. forces in the 8 1/2 years they served in Iraq. Though it would seem Washington has the power, the military power, to stop this vast crime spree, it is not considered to be of paramount importance in the national security interest. Plain and unfortunately simple. Though there are initiatives like the State Department funded Syrian Heritage Initiative, the overall large scale political will is just not there. Iraq is too mired in intractable sectarian and ethnic fissures to do much to save its treasures while the Assad government in Damascus is concerned with solely with regime preservation.
The future of the past indeed looks bleak for the time being.

clean roomA work area in which the air quality, temperature and humidity are highly regulated in order to protect sensitive equipment from contamination. Clean rooms are important features in the production of silicon chips, hard disk drives and other technologies such as satellites. The air in a clean room is repeatedly filtered to remove dust particles and other impurities that can damage the production of highly sensitive technologies.
The measure of the air quality of a clean room is described in Federal Standard 209. Clean rooms are rated as "Class 10,000," where there exists no more than 10,000 particles larger than 0.5 microns in any given cubic foot of air; "Class 1000," where there exists no more than 1000 particles; and "Class 100," where there exists no more than 100 particles. Hard disk drive fabrication requires a Class 100 clean room.
People who work in clean rooms must wear special protective clothing called "bunny suits" that do not give off lint particles and prevent human skin and hair particles from entering the room's atmosphere.
