What if you could stretch your corn supplies a bit further or increase milk production just by re-evaluating how fine your corn is ground? Dave LaCount, dairy nutritionist with Purina Animal Nutrition, says that if corn is not ground properly, your herd could be losing milk performance potential.
"It is imperative that corn is adequately ground in order to ensure adequate energy availabilities and full utilization of corn," LaCount says.
When evaluating corn, aim for an average particle size of 750 to 850 microns. Microns, or particle size, can easily be measured on farm with a hand-crank flour sifter. To do so, weigh out 10 ounces of ground corn and sift the sample until it appears that all particles and fines that can get through the screen have done so. Weigh out the remaining particles on the screen. Compare the weight of the material that remains on the screen with the following information and evaluate your grinding process accordingly:
• 1 ounce = 750 microns = excellent
• 2 ounces = 800 microns = excellent
• 3 ounces = 900 microns = good
• 4 ounces = 1,000 microns = fair
• 5 ounces = 1,200 microns = very poor
• >5 ounces = >1,200 microns = disaster
"Any corn below 22 percent moisture should be 600 to 700 microns," LaCount notes. Samples of ground corn can also be submitted to a laboratory for more precise evaluation.

State Water Resources Research Institute Program
Project ID: 2007NE152B
Title: Improving Estimates of the Value of Irrigated Land in the Republican Watershed
Project Type: Research
Start Date: 3/01/2007
End Date: 2/29/2008
Congressional District: 2
Focus Categories: Irrigation, Economics
Keywords: Land values, irrigation, hedonic modelling
Principal Investigators: Shultz, Steven; Sindt, Roger
Federal Funds: $ 12,791
Non-Federal Matching Funds: $ 26,398
Abstract: This research will improve and refine recent estimates of the value of irrigation (and the likely costs of retiring irrigation rights) in the Republican Watershed based on multiple-regression modeling of agricultural land sales. Reported irrigation equipment values included with sales and estimated irrigation pumping potential on sold land will be verified, and year 2006 sales will be incorporated into the analyses. The research will involve student training and lead to a larger proposal to replicate the research in the Platte River Watershed.
First, year 2006 sales (approximately 200 sales), will incorporated into the modeling of irrigation values in the Republican Watershed in order to account for rapidly changing conditions in the watershed with regards to surface and groundwater supplies, and allowable levels of irrigation.
Second, a survey of a random selection of recent buyers and/or sellers of irrigated land in the Republican Watershed (n= 300) will be administered in order to:
Finally, the impact of revised and updated irrigation equipment and well capacity data on previous estimates of the value of irrigation by re-estimating hedonic multiple regression models and evaluating the new results.

Arsenal's 2-1 victory against Newcastle United puts the team into the record books as the first team to win four games in a row in the Premier League from a losing position.
The run began with a 90th minute winner from Thierry Henry after the Gunners had fallen behind to Sunderland, continued through the 5-2 victory against Spurs, a 90th minute winner by Robin Van Persie at Anfield and was capped by a last minute goal against Newcastle by central defender Thomas Vermaelen.
Arsenal are now just a singe point behind Tottenham and look a good bet to claim third place, as man-of-the match Theo Walcott opined:
"The way you finish, that's what's important."

Pepsi Throwback /
Retro Tweet-up
The Background
Four months after the initial market distribution of Pepsi Throwback, a limited edition vintage-inspired cola, PepsiCo Beverages Canada tasked PRAXIS with raising awareness of the brand's second wave by taking an unexpected and exciting approach.
The Campaign
To generate national exposure and create a spike in online dialog about the soft drink, we created a #PepsiThrowback Retro Tweet-Up hosted by Juno nominee Keshia Chante and a local digital influencer. The event also featured a special performance by 80s icons, The Spoons.
The Results
7up /
EcoGreen Bottle Launch
The Background
After years of research and development, PepsiCo Beverages Canada launched Canada's first soft drink bottle made from 100% recycled PET plastic- the 7UP EcoGreen bottle. A breakthrough for the Canadian beverage sector, the announcement marked the next step in PepsiCo's journey for more sustainable packaging solutions.
The Campaign
To underline PepsiCo's leadership and generate positive awareness of the 7UP EcoGreen bottle, PRAXIS developed a partnership with a national environmental organization and conducted outreach to environmental stakeholders prior to the bottle's public launch. Targeting online and news broadcast media, we also created B-Roll and a Video News Release to visually demonstrate the innovative manufacturing process and environmental benefits of the bottle. To further highlight the company's commitment to finding sustainable packaging solutions, PRAXIS conducted top tier news media interviews with the President of PepsiCo Beverages Canada.
The Results
LifeSaving Society /
Children's Awareness
The Background
With all our lakes, rivers, streams and pools, drowning prevention is a real concern - close to 500 people die every year in water-related incidents and it's the second leading cause of preventable death for kids under 10 years old.
The Campaign
The PRAXIS objective was to communicate key findings of an important study on ethnicity and water safety. We maximized the story's potential by creating a media event with ample filming opportunities - a swimming pool featuring children - and used English, French and Chinese spokespeople to engage both English and non-English media. Although a Toronto-based event, we ensured the news reached outlets across the country through a targeted national media relations campaign.
The Results
Skinnygirl Margarita /
Product Launch
The Background
After taking the U.S. market by storm in 2009, Reality TV star and Skinnygirl Cocktails creator, Bethenny Frankel, sold her ready-to-drink cocktail brand to our client, BEAM Inc. PRAXIS was tasked with launching the brand's first Canadian flavour, Skinnygirl Margarita.
The Campaign
With so many Canadian fans following Bethenny on Facebook and Twitter, we harnessed the powers of social media to deliver messages about the star's arrival and created consumer launch events in Toronto and Vancouver at the LCBO and BCLDB retail outlets. PRAXIS then continued the conversation online by targeting bloggers and influencers who love to talk celebrity and cocktails and coordinated back-to-back media interviews with Bethenny.

University of the Sciences President Dr. Philip P. Gerbino announced his retirement effective August 31, 2011. Dr. Gerbino graduated from the institution as a student in 1969 and would go on to serve as a faculty member and administrator, and has been president of USciences since 1995.
"With new leadership coming to the board, I felt that the time was right to announce my retirement and step away from this beloved university," Dr. Gerbino said. "University of the Sciences is where it needs to be to continue to move forward and grow. I've been here for 44 years as a student, administrator, and as a president. The timing of my retirement feels right."
Gerbino graduated with a degree in pharmacy in 1969 from the former Philadelphia College of Pharmacy and Science (PCPS, now University of the Sciences). While an instructor in pharmacy at the school, he earned his doctor of pharmacy in 1970. Gerbino worked his way up through the ranks at PCPS as a faculty member and an administrator becoming vice president of academic affairs in 1992. He served in that role as well as becoming dean of the college before being appointed president in 1995.
As president, Gerbino helped usher in the transformation of PCPS to University of the Sciences in Philadelphia in 1997 when the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania approved the institution's application for university status. Today, the University continues to build on its esteemed reputation and is home to 27 undergraduate and 21 graduate programs in five colleges. Its 3,000 students have enrolled in premier programs in the health sciences, ranging across pharmacy with its direct entry doctoral program to pre-med to physical therapy to healthcare business and health policy.
"I want to thank Dr. Gerbino for his incredible devotion and dedicated leadership over his many years as president, administrator, faculty member, student and then alumnus of USciences," said Marvin Samson, USciences board chairman. "Over the years he has touched many lives, guided many careers and made many significant contributions. During his tenure as president, he helped transform the institution into the leading health sciences university it is today."
As president, the University's operating budget tripled while the endowment quadrupled. The size of the student body doubled as did the academic offerings. Physically, the university has grown to 22 buildings over 36 acres, creating an urban learning campus with residential living and palpable student life. The athletic teams have been elevated to NCAA Division II status.
Personally, Dr. Gerbino has been awarded numerous honors and distinctions, including Pennsylvania Bio's Frank Baldino Bioscience CEO of the Year Award in March of this year. He serves on the boards of the University City Science Center, the Life Science Congress of the Philadelphia Visitors and Convention Bureau, TargetRx, Numoda and Pennsylvania BIO. He also serves on the President's Council of the National Collegiate Athletic Association (NCAA) Division II.
Between now and August 31, Dr. Gerbino will be working with new board chair Marvin Samson and the board executive committee on transition matters, including a presidential search.

Greetings adult comics fan and welcome to Erotic Adult Comics! This little site features samples from two top-quality comics series written by two of the 'Net's most popular erotic artists, the infamous Jag27 and master CGI artist EPOCH!
Jag27 is well-known for his crazy, perverted stories with huge casts of characters each with their own sexual "fetishes" - some of them truly weird as you will soon see! The first gallery shows a few samples from yet another of his twisted tales "Malevolent Intentions" Part 16, the series itself a spinoff of sorts from his massively huge and ongoing series "The Chaperone".
The second gallery is from one of the most sought-after and popular adult comics series on the Internet, the dark, sadistic tale "FREEHOPE" produced by the amazing CGI artist and storyteller EPOCH. It is a very dark tale with some disturbing scenes, so viewer discretion is advised! The 3d erotic art in this story is supremely photorealistic and the hotter-than-hell protagonists are often unwilling participants in various acts of debauchery forced on them by the malicious FREEHOPE wardens!
These two fine erotic comics can be found exclusively at one of my favorite adult comics sites on the Internet, the pioneer in 3d adult comics series and CGI erotic art with 100% Original and Exclusive Adult Comics, the one and only CrazyXXX3DWorld.com!

Rated 3.4 out of 5�by 19 reviewers.
Rated 1 out of 5�by J Wilson try This ball is the worst football ever had, it is to slick, poor quality and difficult to throw constant spirals, when wet the football turns your hands red. Don't waste your money on this ball July 19, 2016
Rated 5 out of 5�by Conman Perfect size ball for age 13 and up I can't believe this size ball is so hard to find in the stores. It is the recommended size for children 13 and up. great ball, just wish there was a better supply in the stores so I don't have to continue ordering on-line. January 11, 2016
Rated 4 out of 5�by Dan Good ball This is a good football second one my boys have had in two years although they use it daily. The ends of the ball are hard but it's a great way to teach your kid how to catch using fingertips cause it does hurt if it hits your hand to hard. Overall I like the ball. August 26, 2015
Rated 2 out of 5�by SaveyShopper Not very durable The feel of the ball is pretty good, but a less expensive ball does show the wear and tear as easily as this ball does. This ball has been dropped a few times on pavement and it looks like it's been used for years. Plus, it got wet from grass and when wiped with a dry paper towel, the color of the ball wiped off. Not worth the $45 price tag! August 25, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by BigFish My Son loves the balls (Quarterback) Its the ball by son plays with at his school and it helps to have the same at home for extra throwing practice Great ball(s) bought 10 August 4, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5�by Skicrazer Nice football, but not durable on the street Only a couple of missed catches on the street and the leather on the nose has worn through. It's a nice football, but don't use it anywhere except on the grass or turf. Nice, tight shape and light weight. April 28, 2015
Rated 5 out of 5�by 1customer Football Great craftsmanship but a bit high priced compared to most balls of equal quality April 21, 2015
Rated 3 out of 5�by Tcricker Some good some bad I have bought 5 of these footballs this year. 2 of them did not keep air. The other three are great. October 10, 2014
Rated 2 out of 5�by Tonenice Nice ball Just don't never play in rainy weather. The shiny costing wore off and now the ball is very slippery. September 23, 2014
Rated 1 out of 5�by grampa expected better from wilson Bought the what I thought was a quality, all leather ball. First day playing catch on a dewy lawn and we ended up with red dye all over our hands and clothes. I called Wilson customer service, was told they had never heard of such a thing (though the internet is full of these stories) and I would get an email about correcting this warranty issue. That was 3 weeks ago and no emails or follow ups. I'll rethink Wilson in the future September 16, 2014

The new iPhone 5 has the best camera in an iPhone yet. We review it up against its acclaimed predecessor
Apple iPhone 5 Review
The iPhone 5 improves upon the 4s in almost every way. First the obvious – the phone has retained the same width but stretched in length to accommodate a 4in screen with a 16:9 ratio (from a 3.5in 4:3 ratio). Although it has the same resolution (326ppi) the screen appears sharper and more saturated thanks to changes in the design which have enabled the layer of touch-sensitive electrodes that previously sat above the pixels to be built into the pixels themselves.
As well as boosting the screen's clarity this has also helped make the phone thinner – just 7.6mm – while the switch from a glass back and steel frame to an anodised aluminium casing has trimmed the weight from 140g to 112g, despite its larger size – a difference that feels greater in the hand than it seems on paper.
Watch the video:
View the HD version
Main Improvements
– Faster Processor
– Sapphire crystal lens cover
– Higher Max ISO (now to ISO 3200)
– Improved low-light performance
– Shoot stills and videos simultaneously
– Panorama mode (also available on earlier models running iOS 6)
Other reasons to consider an upgrade to the iPhone 5
– Lighter, thinner (yet stronger)
– Bigger, brighter 16:9 screen
– Faster at everything
– Better Wi-Fi (N), faster 3G/4G
– Much better headphones (new design)
iPhone 5 Camera
The iPhone 5 has a newly designed sensor but retains the same 8MP resolution, and has a new sapphire crystal outer lens, added more for scratch resistance than any gain in optical quality. The big improvement though is the speed, thanks to the new A6 processor which is twice as fast as the A5. This offers many benefits, from gaming to web browsing, but it also enables the camera to be activated more quickly, and images to be captured, edited, saved and shared more rapidly.
Apple has also added several functional photography improvements. It has boosted the top ISO from 1000 to 3200 (though you can't select this manually), and the front camera is now HD, so self portraits and FaceTime chats look better.
There's a new panorama mode which produces instant 240° images by sweeping the phone in an arc – a feature found on some cameras. Video recordings benefit from some enhancements too. The image stabilisation has been beefed up to make recordings smoother, while the addition of an extra rear-facing mic provides better sound than having to use the phone mic, which faces the wrong way for video. Also users can now take 1920 x 1080pixel still images during video recording – a great feature for anyone who has agonised over whether to shoot stills or video of junior's school sports day sack race.
The iPhone 5's wider screen is of little benefit for stills photography, since images are still captured in the 4:3 ratio (unless you use one of the third-party apps that offers different aspect ratios). It does, however, help when viewing panoramas, and of course when shooting HD video.
iPhone 5 Image Quality
To view our iPhone 5 vs iPhone 4S review sample comparison images, click here.
The camera module in the iPhone 5 may be different from the one in the 4s but it behaves in an almost identical way. Using both cameras side by side the images are virtually indistinguishable in normal conditions, and even indoors.
Sharpness and detail are excellent while exposures are generally spot on, with punchy but not unnatural colours. In extremely low light though (such as candlelight) it's a different story. The iPhone 5 still produces usable if noisy images with recognisable shadow detail in conditions when the 4s fails to capture any image at all.
Apple iPhone 4S test image. In good light images from the iPhone 4s and iPhone 5 are virtually indistinguishable in quality.
Apple iPhone 5 test image.
iPhone 5 Verdict
There was a huge leap in photo quality between the iPhone 4 and the 4s, but from the 4s to the iPhone 5 the changes are more subtle and incremental and some of them (such as the panorama mode) can be added to earlier models by downloading iOS 6.
Otherwise the only gains are operational speed and better performance in very low light. Video users will gain more from upgrading, particularly in being able to make use of a screen that's now the right aspect ratio for full screen viewing.

Hey, looking for some advice on my C-Max 2.0TDCi
Just been in for it's MOT/Service, passed etc. Day later I noticed I had no turbo kicking in (just flat power delivery and no kick) and about 20 seconds later the engine management light kicks. I've had this before after a service where they've not bolted something on properly (I know the intercooler pipes are a bugger to get back on and I've had garages split them before trying to force it) and it's gone into limp home mode.
The garage has had it back, reckon the turbo has gone but couldn't get to it to check in the time they had, so have booked it in for Friday.
In all likelihood has the Turbo actually gone? It was fine before the service and MOT, and the above was the first time it had been driven after the service/MOT. I was always under the impression that the turbo going was always some cataclysmic failure that wrecked the engine and left you on the side of the road. Ours is driving around fine as if it was simply a non-turbo variant if they ever made one.
55 plate btw…

The XY Factor- Male infertility
07/21/2013 at 12:44 pm Vijay Vaishnav 3 comments
Much has been written about female infertility and in practice, very often the male is often neglected when the infertile couple is being evaluated and treated. It is often the OB/GYN doctor who doubles as an infertility specialist and it is no wonder that he directs all attention towards the female often missing out reversible causes of infertility in the male.
A low sperm count is often encountered in the infertile male and there are many causes for this. The testes cannot function efficiently in a hot environment. It is for this reason that these gonads are outside the abdominal cavity in a sac called the scrotum. Hence, there is a low sperm count in males who work in foundries, furnaces and anyplace where the temperatures are very high. People wearing tight jeans may also have a lower sperm count because of the higher local temperature.
My wife has been successfully using homeopathy in infertility. She has often encountered cases where the female has been thoroughly investigated and found to have to abnormalities but the male was not even examined. One of the common problems that she has found in her male infertility patients is the presence of a varicocele ( a varicosity of the testicular veins). The enlarged, dilated and tortuous veins around the testes increase the local heat and inhibit spermatogenesis (sperm production). She refers these patients to a surgeon who examines them and helps confirm this condition.
I have helped many of the male patients with low sperm counts (oligospermia) with homeopathy. Thyroidinum is a homeopathic remedy that is often used to increase the sperm count and help the couple conceive naturally. When a person has a varicocele, homeopathic remedies like Hamamelis and Pulsatilla sometimes do away with the need for surgery.
It is a very satisfying and unenviable position to be in- helping infertile couples conceive.
For homeopathic consultation for your symptoms you may visit Homeopathic Healing or send an e-mail to firstname.lastname@example.com to meet the Homeopathic Specialists.
You may also want to see these cases of homeopathy in infertility and homeopathy in Polycytic Ovarian Syndrome (PCOS) treated by us.

We ate a late lunch at Frankie & Benny's today before heading home from our holiday in Suffolk, leaving Homily to sleep in the car. Before we even received our starters, however, we realised that we'd left Georgie's Gruffalo rucksack on the front seat.
Georgie has had this rucksack for about a month now; we bought it so that we could free up space in the changing bag for Lydia's things. All of her bits & pieces are in there; a pack of wipes, her cag in a bag, hat & mittens, a few snacks, that sort of thing. It is very sweet, with a detachable zippered front pouch that we keep her nibbles in.
She has become very proud of her little rucksack and loves to carry it herself. A lot of the time it travels in the bottom of the pushchair, but if its not in there she prefers to carry it herself rather than letting us hold it.
So when James popped out to the car today to retrieve it, the scene he was greeted with was quite disastrous in Georgie's little world; Homily has completely destroyed her gruffalo bag!
The Very Bad Dog has punctured all around the edges & bottom of the bag with her teeth…
Bitten a hole in the Gruffalo's head…
Completely wrecked the side pocket…
…all in the quest for FOOD! She managed to find some as well, by somehow managing to get the front pouch/pocket unzipped! The terror did all this damage & scoffed one of Georgie's little bags of biscuits, all in the short amount of time it took us to order our food!
The bag now stinks of dog breath, and has so many holes that it isn't really strong enough to be trusted to carry anything, especially with all the rips and punctures in the plastic front of the bag. It's not exactly waterproof anymore either, being riddled with holes.
Thankfully, this story has a happy ending. We took a little diversion on the way back to the A14 and our journey home to stop at the Ipswich Mothercare. Luckily they had a few in stock so we were able to purchase a replacement for the hole-ridden stinky mess!
Thank goodness it was only a £12 fix for this particular disaster.
And as far as Homily is concerned? She won't be getting any dinner tonight, but is very pleased with herself! She really is a nightmare, scavenging for food whenever our back is turned, and a lazy dog all other times. What a brat!

Hey guys,
Since the posts have been a little light lately, I thought I'd share the beginnings of what will be future posts with a new location/setup. Just bought a condo here in Chicago. It's new construction, so I don't really have any pictures yet, but there will be some to follow when I finally close and move in.
I did myself absolutely NO favors on the HT front. Floor-to-ceiling windows, concrete ceiling/construction, no dedicated room. Too much of it was great to pass the deal up, so I'll make due. I'll be able to integrate my acoustic panels, and the living area is considerably bigger than before, so that should help tame the issues.
More to come!October 27, 2009 at 7:02 pm #2253
Congrats PJ….I live in California now, but was born and raised in Chicago. Moved to Cali in 1996, after 31 years in Chi Town.
Where is this new condo located? If I recall correctly, you are currently in the downtown area? Gold Coast maybe?
-ScottiemonOctober 27, 2009 at 9:06 pm #2378
Currently in the South Loop…practically downtown. New place is North/Clybourn. Technically a Lincoln Park zip, but I think it's more "Near North." With all the real estate BS, who knows. LOL
Interesting article popped up today: http://www.tuaw.com/2009/10/27/apple-will-spend-4-million-to-renovate-chicagos-north-halsted/
This is about 50 feet from my new place. Close in a couple of weeks. Probably won't move in for a couple of months. Got painting, electrical, etc to do, and that's a LOT easier with no crap in the place. My lease doesn't run out until March.October 28, 2009 at 3:24 am #2367
Nice location, been there many times. Do you happen to know the name of the Italian place mentioned in the article?
CheersOctober 28, 2009 at 6:23 am #2379
ha…I don't. But after reading that article, it made me actually say, "Hmm…need to find out what restaurant he's referring to…"
If I figure it out, I'll report back.October 28, 2009 at 8:44 am #2368
I believe he may have been talking about Mangia Roma, thanks Google Earth. I actually have not been in that area of Halsted much, we always use to go farther north to eat at one of our favorite Italian restaurants. It was called Carlucci, on North Halsted. Alas, it is no longer there. There is still one out in Rosemont. Have eaten there as well but the atmosphere was much different and with a different menu. Of course Chicago has no shortage of great food. Looks like you are going to be in a nice location.
CheersOctober 28, 2009 at 10:46 am #2415

Congrats PJ and best of luck treating the room!October 28, 2009 at 1:00 pm #2469
Congrats PJ! Since your living area will be significantly larger than your current place, it was excellent planning on your part to get the XPA-3 (much to the chagrin of your neighbors).
-NickOctober 28, 2009 at 3:18 pm #2380
@Jason – Thanks! Look for an email or PM from me soon re: a little upgrade. [6]
@Nick – Thanks! The XPA-3 has been amazing. SO happy I bought it. Depending on the timing, I might sell it and go XPA-5. My goal is to upgrade my 4B's to 6B's and shift the 5B's to the rear (and 5C to 6C of course). The 5B's definitely benefit from the extra juice, hence the XPA-5 idea. However, the lack of load on my Onkyo 876 with the 3 will probably be enough oomph for them as well. I thought about just adding an XPA-2 for L-R and having the 3 power the C and surrounds, but as you've seen so far, I like to keep things as simple/minimalist as possible, and don't plan on having a 10-foot-high rack full of gear.
I'm really chompin' at the bit to get it closed. I'm ready to get in there and get some work done! Looking forward to sharing pictures as I go.

The bag isn't so big that you can overload and have too much gear on your back. You can stuff it, carry tons of beer or whatever else you may but it's right at 1100 cubic inches of space. Not too big, not too small.

Editorial Reviews
"Robert's book, by drawing on more recent scholarship incorporates a global view and puts world Christianity at the center of the narrative, where it belongs, This re-writing" of the history of Christian missions has just begun and likely will occupy scholars for years to come." (Church History, June 2010)"This work is a valuable contribution to the subject." (CHOICE, December 2009)"Roberts helpfully reminds the readers that this...must be understood by accounting for the various players and settings in which it unfolds: "It is important to study the spiders, but it is equally important to notice the web" (177).Christian Mission, appropriate as a college or graduate level text, is a commendable introduction to those seeking to make sense of this tangled web." (Missology, 2010)"[This book] does a lot of things (including a chronological and thematic study of 2000 years of Christian mission!). Along the way, Robert points out that Christian missionaries have done much good for the societies they have entered." (The Gospel Coalition, January 2010)
"A masterful survey of mission in Christian history from the very origins of the religion to the present. … It should be required reading for any undergraduate course on Christianity or world religions." (International Bulletin of Missionary Research, October 2009)
"Robert unerringly focuses on the most important issues. She is especially good on the persistence of gender issues in mission history." (Christian Century, October 2009)

This Cable and Bobble Stitch Blanket was designed and made for my little niece, Lienke, who has finally arrived in all her wrinkly awesomeness and hairy cuteness.
I wanted a blanket that was a little bit more complicated than just single crochets, but wouldn't take me months (or even weeks) to finish. By using 3 strands of double knit yarn at the same time, this blanket grows very quickly.
I have used (abused) the Attic24 Yarn Pack, which I bought a while ago, to make this particular version. Right at the bottom of the post you will find instructions for making an exact replica, but you can use any yarn you fancy. The yarn and hook suggested below will give you a blanket that is roughly 80 cm wide by 90 cm long (31.5″ x 25.5″).
You do not have to go cheerful and chunky as I have gone. By using a smaller hook and thinner yarn (or less strands of yarn) and increasing the amount of repeats per row, you can make a more dainty version.
You could also go completely crazy and make a king-sized blanket…
- 3 Strands of Double Knit yarn (Light Worsted Weight/#3/8 ply) together OR 2 Strands of Chunky yarn (12 ply) together
- 8 mm crochet hook (US 11/L) – (You can also use a 9 mm crochet hook (US 15/N). Just remember that your blanket will come out slightly bigger.)
- Yarn Needle (This is optional. I suggest that you crochet OVER your tails of yarn, but if you don't like crocheting over your tails of yarn, you are more than welcome to work them away with a yarn needle.)
- Ch – Chain
- Dc – Double Crochet
- Fdc – Foundationless Double Crochet – video tutorial here.
- Bptr – Back Post Treble Crochet
- Fptr – Front Post Treble Crochet – video tutorial for both front AND back post treble crochet here.
- St/st's – Stitch/stitches
- * – Repeat all instructions in parentheses the amount of times stipulated.*Dc x 9, {Cable 2}* x 4, for example, will mean: Dc x 9, work a cable (as in the instructions for making a {Cable 2}, dc x 9, work a cable, dc x 9, work a cable, dc x 9, work a cable.
Speciality Stitches
- {Cable 2} – Dc2tog. Skip the next st. Bptr in the next 2 st's. Now go back to the st below the last st of the dc2tog and bptr around that st. Bptr around the next st, which doesn't contain a st yet. You will need to twist your work quite a bit to be able to do this. Now dc2tog, starting in the st at the top of the last bptr.
- {Cable 3} – Dc2tog. Fptr in the next 4 st's, working around the posts of the bptr's from the previous row. Dc2tog, starting in the st at the top of the last bptr.
- {Cable 4} – Dc2tog. Skip the next fptr. Bptr in the next 2 st's. Now go back to the fptr below the last st of the dc2tog and bptr around that st. Bptr around the next fptr, which doesn't contain a st yet. Dc2tog, starting in the st at the top of the last fptr.
- Popcorn Stitch: 4 x dc's in the same st. Drop the loop from your hook. Insert your hook into the first of the 4 dc's and pull the dropped loop through the stitch.
Basic Cable and Bobble Stitch Blanket Pattern
Suitable for Advanced Beginners
The cable and bobble pattern repeats every 15 st's, so if you want to make a bigger blanket, just start with multiples of 15 stitches and take away 1 stitch. For example: for 10 repeats: 10 x 15 – 1 = 149.
Please note: In the video I say multiples of 15 and add 14. It's the same thing.
Video Tutorial
Update 06/2015: The video tutorial has now been removed and a new one will be uploaded as soon as a better one can be produced.
Please Note: The turning chains are NOT counted as stitches.
Using your 8 mm crochet hook and 3 strands of double knit yarn (or 2 strands of chunky/bulky yarn):
- Start with 74 fdc (not including the initial ch-3). Ch 2 and turn. {74}
- Make a dc in each of the first 4 st's, starting in the st at the base of the initial ch-2. {Cable 2 – as in the instructions above}. *Dc x 9, {Cable 2}* x 4. Dc x 4. Ch 2 and turn. (74)
- Make a dc in each of the first 4 st's, starting in the st at the base of the initial ch-2. {Cable 3}. *Make a dc in each of the next 4 st's. Make a Popcorn stitch in the next stitch. Dc in the next 4 st's. {Cable 3}* x 4. Dc in the last 4 st's. Ch 2 and turn.
- Dc in the first 4 st's, starting in the st at the base of the initial ch-2. {Cable 4}. *Dc in the next 9 st's. {Cable 4}* x 4. Dc in the last 4 st's. Ch 2 and turn.
Repeat Rows 3 and 4 until your blanket is as long as you want it to be. 52 Rows should be plenty.
At the bottom of this post you will find instructions for binding your blanket with a row of single crochet.
Rainbow Cable and Bobble Stitch Blanket
To make my Rainbow version of the Cable and Bobble Stitch Blanket, you will need to buy yourself some Stylecraft Special DK Yarn (15 balls to be exact), but don't worry, this yarn is incredibly affordable.
Let's talk about the yarn first, because it's the most important part of the Rainbow Blanket.
Attic 24 Yarn Pack
Stylecraft Special DK Yarn
Yarn specifications
- 100% Acrylic
- 295 m/322 yards per 100 g ball
- Machine washable at 40
- Cool tumble dry, cool iron
- Knitting needles: UK 8/US 6/4 mm
Most of you will have heard of Lucy from Attic24. And even if you haven't heard of her, you'll have seen one of her blankets on the internet…you just might not realize it.
Lucy has some gorgeous blanket patterns. My favourites are her Ripple Blanket and her Granny Stripe Blanket. Her colour work is amazing, so it's no wonder that you can now buy the "Attic 24 Yarn Pack", inspired by her Granny Stripe Blanket, from quite a few yarn retailers.
This post contains a list of all the colours in the Yarn Pack (17 in total), as well as Lucy's personal experience working with Stylecraft Special DK.
Now, you don't HAVE to make this blanket with Stylecraft. If you can't get your hands on any, you can use the colour chart below to buy colours that are similar to the ones I have used. But if you CAN get your hands on an Attic 24 Yarn Pack, I suggest you do. Unpacking those 17 balls is a feast for your eyes and I can bet you that you will be inspired to make so many pretty things that you won't know where to start.
Additional Help
Tails of yarn
I suggest that you crochet OVER your tails of yarn as you go. It saves a lot or working away (sewing) at the end. You can find a video tutorial for working over your yarn ends here.
Changing colours
Change colour on the last yarn over of the last stitch of the relevant row.
Making the Rainbow Cable and Bobble Stitch Blanket
To make the Rainbow Cable and Bobble Stitch Blanket, you will follow the pattern for the Basic Version, but you will start with 3 strands of yarn, each in a different colour (as specified in the colour chart below). You will work the first 4 rows in these 3 colours. This is your first 4-row strip.
At the end of the fourth row, you will cut one of the colours (Plum in this case) and add in the next colour (Clematis in this case). You will then work the next 4 rows. At the end of that 4-row strip you will again cut one colour and add in the next colour (following the colour chart below).
You will continue in this way until you have made 13 x 4-row strips.
Adding and taking away one colour at a time like this gives the blanket a variegated rainbow feel which I am crazy about.
Important Notes
- I did not use the Lipstick and Lavender yarn from the Attic 24 pack. This was not by choice. They got lost in the move.
- The blanket eats approximately 900 g (2 lb) of yarn. That is roughly 2.6 km (1.6 miles) of yarn. Yikes!
- Each 4-row strip takes about 23 g of each colour (70 m/76 yards) and I didn't use more than one ball of any one colour. In fact, you should have enough left to make a Crochet Ten Stitch Blanket with.
- Before you start you will need to wind 25 g (just to be on the safe side) of Saffron, Spring Green and Meadow into separate little balls, because you will need to use 2 strands of the Saffron and Spring Green at the same time in the 7th and 8th 4-row strips respectively and 2 strands of Meadow for the binding.
- Occasionally you will need to cut 2 colours at the end of a 4-row strip and add 2 new ones.
Click on the image below to open the pdf version of the colour chart.
Binding the Cable and Bobble Stitch Blanket
Everyone has a different way of finishing off their blankets. Sometimes you don't want to add a binding at all! But for this blanket I suggest that you at least add one round of single crochet all the way around the blanket, because the first row will pull up slightly at the beginning of each cable column.
You are, of course, more than welcome to add any kind of binding prettiness you want.
To bind your blanket, start with 2 strands of Meadow and 1 strand of Spring Green. With a slip knot already on your hook and the right side of the blanket facing you:
Sc in each st of the last row of the blanket. In the last st of the last row (the corner stitch): sc, ch 2, sc. Turn your blanket through 90 degrees and continue working around, this time making 2 sc's in the end of each row down. Turn your blanket through 90 degrees and (sc, ch 2, sc) into the first available st of the foundation double crochet row. Make a sc into each st of the first row. When you get to the last stitch, (sc, ch 2, sc) into it. Turn your work through 90 degrees again and make 2 sc's into each row up the side of the blanket. Finally sc into the stitch that contains the first sc of your binding round. Then join to the top of the first sc with a sl st and bind off.
Work away your tails of yarn.
You can find an excellent tutorial for binding a blanket here. It is by Crochet Happy and is chock-full of photos. Just remember that your blanket is made up of double crochet stitches, so you will need to make 2 sc's into each row, not one as she does.
I hope this tutorial is clear enough. If you have any questions or suggestions, please leave me a comment.
Other than that, have fun!

Constitutional limits
Obama's criticism of SCOTUS hardly "scholarly"
There are times when even I'm a bit surprised at what manages to work its way out of our President's mouth. After all, included in what little we do know about the guy is the claim that he was a "Constitutional lawyer". He even taught that in Chicago to law students, or so we're told.
Yet yesterday, in a press conference with the leaders of Mexico and Canada he was asked about the pending Supreme Court decision on ObamaCare and said:
"I am confident the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically-elected congress."
I can't imagine a more supremely arrogant and yet profoundly ignorant statement than that. Of course, at least in my day, most school children would have understood the ignorance of that statement.
I'll illustrate it for you if necessary by adding a bit to his words:
"I am confident the Supreme Court will not take what would be an unprecedented, extraordinary step of overturning a law that was passed by a strong majority of a democratically-elected congress that allows whites to lynch blacks."
Obviously he'd be clamoring for the SCOTUS to overturn a law like that. And he wouldn't hesitate to condemn the "strong majority of democratically-elected" officials that passed such a law n the first place (and lets pretend this was signed before he assumed office – you know, Bush did it). Strong majorities (in the case of ObamaCare it was 219 to 212) passing anything are irrelevant if what they pass is in conflict with the Constitution – period.
In the hypothetical most of us would immediately identify the fact that a) murder and lynching are not within the power of any majority to sanctify and certainly not a power granted in the Constitution and b) it is the job of the Supreme Court to strike down laws that are unconstitutional regardless of how strong the majority voting for it.
I can't imagine a supposed, or at least self-described, Constitutional scholar making such an ignorant statement to begin with … but there it is. He then followed it up with this:
"I just remind conservative commentators that for years we have heard the biggest problem on the bench was judicial activism or a lack of judicial restraint. That an unelected group of people would somehow overturn a duly constituted and passed law. Well, this is a good example and I am pretty confident that this Court will recognize that and not take that step."
Smartest guy in the room? I'm sorry, but that just doubles down on ignorance.
As we've discussed (most recently on the podcast) it isn't the job of the Supreme Court to do the job of Congress. Instead, its job is to determine whether or not what Congress has done is compliant with the limits the Constitution places on it. That's it. There is nothing which requires the Supreme Court to "fix" laws that Congress has passed.
Justice Kennedy alluded to this when he said that the removal of the individual mandate would completely change the law in a way that was clearly not what Congress intended. Thus the "conservative" thing for the court to do would be to strike down the entire law and tell Congress to go back to work. Of course the Democrats and Obama know that if the entire law is struck down, the likelihood of it being "fixed", given the Republican House, are remote. Thus we hear the usual nonsense about "judicial activism" and the other garbage Obama tossed out above making the rounds on the left.
Then there's the remark about "an unelected group of people". My goodness Constitutional scholar, they're "unelected" and appointed for life for a reason. And that reason is to remove politics, as much as possible, from their deliberations and allow them to focus entirely on the law and Constitution. Obviously, it seems, politics haven't been kept out of the Supreme Court, but for the President to take a juvenile shot like that at the Court while it is in deliberations is fairly outrageous.
Bottom line: If those Obama quotes now illustrate "Constitutional scholarship" in this day and age, this Republic is in very deep trouble.

Sharon Needles works with Amanda Lepore, Jayne County, Armen Ra and (maybe) RuPaul on new album!
As Sharon Needles put its, she is recording "the most legendary tranny album." This warrants many guest spots and, believe us, she knows her gay musical history. James St. James visited Sharon Needles and Amanda Lepore in the recording studio where they were working on their track together for Sharon's upcoming album. James talked with Sharon and Amanda about the meaning behind their song, as well as what to expect from the album, Sharon's life since winning season 4 of RuPaul's Drag Race, and Amanda's beauty inspirations and ideals.

Cheats and Walkthroughs
Cheats and Walkthroughs
Morgan Webb was on hand at San Diego Comic-Con to moderate panel for The Unfinished Swan, bringing together creative director Ian Dallas, level designer Ben Esposito, art director Hokyo Lim, and producer Max Geiger to talk about their upcoming "first person painter" game that will be released sometime later this year on PlayStation Network.
It was interesting to learn that Ian Dallas has a background as a comedy writer, having worked at The Onion and on Drawn Together, especially since The Unfinished Swan feels much more like an introspective art game like Flower or Journey. It was almost as surprising to learn that Ben Esposito was a poet, as it sounded like a joke, but he actually went to college for that. Now he's channeling iambic pentameter into artistic levels.
The panel itself was mostly focused on the artwork in the game, which is the mechanic by which players find their way through the game. At first that involves throwing splats of black paint in a completely white room, which is something you'll have to figure out on your own. During some of the playtests, they noticed that players would sit there for five minutes waiting for the game to tell them what to do.
According to Espositio, "It will never tell you what to do. People would eventually become frustrated and start throwing paintballs, which is exactly what we want them do to." There are more gameplay mechanics (and color) as you progress through the game.
Although the game features solid rooms that are revealed with paint and lots of silhouettes, meaning that artists don't have to worry about textures, Dallas said that the design is actually harder, because you have to focus on exactly what the players will be seeing. "You have to think about it in a much more abstract way," he said. Through the use of perspective and "weenies" (to use a game design term) that draw your eye to important locations and make you figure out how to get there.
To illustrate that point, they showed off part of the first area in the game, which is a natural and austere garden, and the second part of the game which is an "unfinished empire that the king has been building," complete with shading and colors.
As far as the name The Unfinished Swan goes, that comes from the fact that the boy you play in the game, Monroe, has chased a swan into a painting. Shades of Narnia, eh? This is also reflected in the game itself, which often resembles an unfinished painting. Art director Hokyo Lim has spent a lot of time perfecting the look of the art in the game, ranging from creating the right paint splats, "So many of them just looked fake," to some of the design that was inspired by concept artwork for Disney's 101 Dalmatians.
He also has a background in pottery, which has resulted in tons of pots appearing in the game. According to Esposito, "We didn't know about this fixation when we hired Hokyo, but it has even worked its way into the game as you encounter a character who is a potter."
Lim also uses color for different reasons in the game, with gold representing things that the king has created, and sky blue as a comforting and nurturing color. Apparently the king has a magic paintbrush, and he has used it throughout the game. Each different level of the game features a unique design, which have been created over "months and years of iteration." Which means time to check out what works and what doesn't, like clouds for instance.
Initially, there were clouds in the skies in the game, but according to Dallas, it looked too unnatural. Now the game uses blank white skies, which "felt more like our world." They cited Shel Silverstein's artwork as an influence, but have found that it has been difficult to render that in 3D.
As Morgan pointed out, basing a game on artwork and revealing it through paint splats is interesting, "But how do you make sure there's a game there?" That's the biggest challenge facing the development team, and Dallas remarked, "Everyone under the age of nine wants to splat everything. It's really sad for our programmers. Right now the game gets slower the more you splat, and we're working on that. We thought, 'No one would sit here and splat everything with paint', and we were wrong."
The Unfinished Swan has come a long way since being a grad student project, but they still have work to do. According to producer Max Geiger, "It's a great honor to be mentioned in the same sentence as games like Journey, but players and gameplay, that's number one for us right now." Currently, the team has plans to finish this Swan and have it out later in 2012. We look forward to splatting everything in the game as soon as possible.
