Shame on you nanoCoolers :D
P.S. Xbitlabs, it is not nesesary to explain all over again this technology. You did that in earlier articles, so it just looks lame. My advice is to start making concentrated news. :-) Like other tech website do.
Sapphire's Graphics Card with Liquid Metal Coolers Cancelled[11/06/2005 06:34 PM]
A designer of advanced cooling technologies – nanoCoolers – recently said that it would not commercially produce its liquid-metal cooling solutions introduced earlier in 2006. Instead, the firm will concentrate on the so-called thin-film thermoelectric solutions. A product introduced this year that was to feature liquid-metal cooler – a graphics card by Sapphire Technology – is currently put on hold and it is unlikely to be released commercially.
"We are excited about Thin Film Thermoelectrics (TF TEC) and therefore have refocused liquid-metal resources to TF TEC and have put new development of liquid metal based products on a lower priority," a statement by the company reads.
The liquid-metal cooling technology is based on liquid metal cooling loops that contain a patented fluid called liquid-metal. Since the metal is electrically conductive, an electromagnetic pump is used to propel the liquid within a loop rather quickly. The liquid-metal loops act as typical heat-pipes: they rapidly and efficiently transfer heat from a heat-source to a radiator which is cooled-down either actively or passively. Currently Sapphire Technologies has working samples of its Blizzard product, but cannot manufacture them commercially.
"The liquid metal prototypes have achieved the desired target performance that is exciting to our partners and the market. Since we are not aggressively seeking new business with this technology at the moment we have removed the liquid metal information from our site at this time," nanoCoolers said.
Thermoelectrics are solid-state devices based on semiconductor materials that take advantage of the Peltier effect to cool. At room temperature, most thermoelectrics are based on n-doped and p-doped Bismuth-Telluride semiconductor materials. When current flows from the n-doped material to the p-doped material, heat is absorbed. When current flows from the p-doped material to the n-doped material, heat is dissipated. By constructing a device where the current flows from n-doped to p-doped on one side and from p-doped to n-doped on the other side, one side of the device will absorb heat (get cold) while the other side dissipates heat when DC current is applied. By reversing the direction of the current, the hot and cold sides can swap polarities (the hot side becomes the cold side and vice versa).
In order to scale down size and increase cooling densities, nanoCoolers has developed a proprietary wafer-scale manufacturing process to allow the thermoelectric to be built using thin-film materials. This allows the length of the thermoelectric element to be scaled from millimeters down to microns, which lets significant improvement in cooling density and significant reduction in thermoelectric form factor. According to the company, its thin-film thermoelectric pad of 0.5cmІ surface size can cool down a device with 70W thermal envelope.
"We have garnered great results with our liquid metal products and believe we will have similar success with our TF TEC," the company added.

Washington, DC - (Dec. 16, 2010) - Two veteran science professors at the University of Maryland Eastern Shore will join peers from 12 other historically black institutions in a special training program in 2011 designed specifically for female faculty members who teach science, technology, engineering, and mathematics.
Dr. Linda R. Johnson, an associate professor of biology, and Dr. Jeurel Singleton, an associate professor of entomology, have been selected to participate in Preparing Critical Faculty for the Future, according to the Association of American Colleges and Universities.
The project is funded by the National Science Foundation's Historically Black Colleges and Universities-Undergraduate Program. Faculty from the 13 participating institutions represent the two-year and four-year as well as public and private sectors. Its goal is to providing strategies for becoming strong academic and administrative leaders in academic disciplines collectively referred to by educators as "STEM" subjects.
The National Science Foundation grant covers travel, meals, registration and other expenses so Johnson, Singleton and their colleagues can participate in training seminars scheduled for March and July 2011.
"We are grateful to the National Science Foundation for giving AAC&U the opportunity to provide professional and STEM leadership development to women of color at HBCUs and other minority-serving institutions," AAC&U President Carol Geary Schneider said.
"We also are delighted that this initiative connects our STEM reform efforts led by Project Kaleidoscope with our work supporting women in higher education through our Program on the Status and Education of Women."
Other participating institutions are:
Each institution nominated two female faculty members in STEM disciplines to participate in all phases of the project. Institutional leaders also identified three additional participants, primarily women of color, to engage in the second phase of the project—participating in AAC&U's Engaging Departments Institute in July 2011.
"We expect the project to make great strides in advancing undergraduate STEM education and the professional and leadership development of women of color in STEM fields," said Alma Clayton-Pedersen, AAC&U's Senior Scholar and Project Director.
Additional HBCUs will be selected to participate in the program in 2011and again in 2012. Nearly 40 percent of the nation's HBCUs are expected to participate in this initiative by the end of the grant cycle in 2013. The project is also open to non-HBCUs, but those institutions must fully support their teams in both phases of the project.
The project's goals are:
Participants will be provided the opportunity and the financial support to engage in and influence the national dialogue on improving undergraduate STEM education. They will contribute to and gain from national efforts to develop and implement innovative STEM teaching and learning practices and effective curricular change strategies.
By uncovering useful strategies for preparing women faculty of color for academic leadership in STEM fields, PCFF expects to improve STEM education broadly, as well as at HBCUs.
For additional information about the project, see: www.aacu.org/pcff.

Everyone's been dishing about the impact Kate Middleton's dress will have on bridal trends for years to come, but how many people have really wondered how her wedding makeup will influence future brides-to-be?
Well, the world's been talking about the fact that Miss Middleton is opting to do her own makeup for the big day (honestly though, what's the big deal?), and according to Us Weekly, the future princess was spotted at the makeup counter recently, presumably shopping for the wedding.
"Kate bought eye makeup and basics that were a shade darker than she usually uses in the winter," a source told the news site. "Something better suited to a tan."
Kate is normally seen wearing basic dark brown or black eyeliner without too much extra fuss, but we're wondering if this means she'll go a shade more intense and opt for a dramatic smokey eye?
Whatever the case, she can attain optimum lash drama by using blinc Lash Primer together with blinc Mascara. The primer helps condition and build a strong base for the mascara, which comes with a unique patented formula to resist all forms of running, flaking or smudging - something which simply would not do with the whole world watching!

Diploria clivosa
Diploria clivosa, the knobby brain coral, is a colonial species of stony coral in the family Faviidae. It occurs in shallow water in the West Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea.
The knobby brain coral is a massive coral that either forms hemispherical domes or, particularly in areas of high wave action, forms plates and encrusts the seabed. It can grow to a diameter of about 1.3 metres (4 ft 3 in). The surface of the dome usually has a number of bulges or knobs but this species is not easy to distinguish from the symmetrical brain coral (Diploria strigosa) which tends to have a smoother outline. The surface consists of sharply delineated, convoluted ridges with valleys in between. There is no trough-like groove in the top of the ridge as is the case in the rather similar grooved brain coral (Diploria labyrinthiformis). The coral polyps are strung along the valley bottoms, each sitting in a little stony cup or corallite. The sides of these have minute walls called septae which come in four different sized cycles. They extend outside the corallites as costae that join one corallite to another but are discontinuous in this species, another distinguishing factor. The colour of the coral is usually some shade of yellowish or greenish brown and is caused by the presence of symbiotic dinoflagellates called zooxanthellae in the coral's tissues.[2][3]
Distribution and habitat[edit]
The knobby brain coral is a common species and occurs in southern Florida, the Caribbean Sea and the Bahamas. It is found growing on reefs, in seagrass (Thalassia testudinum) meadows, in lagoons and sometimes on mangroves. It grows at depths down to about 40 metres (130 ft) but is most common at depths less than 5 metres (16 ft).[2][3]
The fossilised remains of Diploria clivosa have been found alongside those of other massive corals Diploria strigosa, Siderastrea siderea and Solenastrea bouroni in marine deposits in Río Grande de Manatí, Puerto Rico that date back to the Pleistocene.[4]
During the day the polyps of the knobby brain coral are retracted into the corallites but at night they emerge and extend their tentacles to feed. The zooxanthellae are photosynthetic and up to fifty percent of their production is transferred to the host while they make use of the coral's nitrogenous waste.[5]
The knobby brain coral grows by the budding of new polyps and the deposition of new calcareous material. Growth is very slow and large corals may be over a hundred years old. Sexual reproduction occurs by the release of gametes into the water column. The planula larvae drift with the currents before settling on the seabed and undergoing metamorphosis into polyps. These begin to secrete their own skeletons and found new colonies.[5]

Friends of the UNH Library Present "Border Security & Drug Trafficking – the DNA Connection?"
Heather Coyle
The Friends of the UNH Library will host a presentation by Heather Coyle on technologies and research being used to track the DNA on narcotics shipments on March 1.
Heather Coyle is an associate professor in the forensic science department at UNH. Coyle began her career at Yale University as a postdoctoral student in corn genetics, later moving on to work at the Connecticut Division of Scientific Services Forensic Laboratory in Meriden.. Coyle has a B.S. from SUNY Plattsburgh, and a M.S. and Ph.D., from the University of New Hampshire.. Coyle's research interests focus on plant-based drug and food samples, the use of plants in forensic casework and DNA for human identification. She has published in the "Journal of Forensic Science" and "Science & Justice." She has also served as a private consultant and expert witness.
Thursday, March 1, 3 p.m.
Marvin K. Peterson Library
There is an increased focus on national security since 9/11. The mechanisms that perform surveillance or better classify potential threats are of interest to both academicians and law enforcement personnel. It is common for law enforcement officials to identify DNA left at crime scenes to identify suspects. Less well known are the technologies and research that are used to trace DNA on random shipments of narcotics from grower to dealer. The technological advances and techniques that can be used to make the connections across borders will be discussed and a short video will be screened to illustrate the magnitude of the problem both within and across U.S. borders.

Topic: Load / Stress testing programs
Howdy all,
I have been asked to find a load / stress testing program that has to meet the following requirements and I was wondering if any of you lot had some good recommendations:
* Allow for the creation of user stories (Just Browsing, purchasing a product etc. )
* GUI Click and Record preferably (Stories to be created by non-techies)
* Windows. Linux possible if there is a web UI
* Free / Cheap ($500 or less)
Currently the only one we have in our sights is WAPT (http://www.loadtestingtool.com)
Any suggestions would be much appreciated.

Physical Description
The Class Gastropoda includes snails and slugs. Most gastropods have a single, usually spirally coiled shell, but the shell is lost or reduced in some groups. Many snails have an operculum, a plate that closes the gastropod's opening. Shelled gastropods have mantles, while those without shells have reduced to absent mantles.
Gastropods have a muscular foot used for creeping in most species. In some, the foot is modified for swimming or burrowing. Most gastropods have a well-developed head that includes eyes at the end of one to two pairs of tentacles.

What were her dreams? What was that four year old thinking? So much of my childhood has been blacked out. This could have been my first day of school. I remember my kindergarten teacher, somewhat. We had a piano in the classroom and I thought that was really something. There was a great play kitchen and I know I wanted to cook and be like my mother. Of course I had my crush on my cousin as I wrote about a few weeks ago.
Later I know I wanted to be a policewoman, like my mom. And of course I wanted to have horses. There was always the horses. I wanted to be a cowgirl. I think all through my childhood and up through highschool and into college becoming a policewoman was my main dream.
After cutting out the mini-mes I needed wings and happened to find a book on butterflies and moths in the dollar section at Target.

Checkmate: Tesla's Elon Musk Provides Driving Logs from NYT's "Peculiar" Model S Trip
Tiffany Kaiser
February 14, 2013 12:41 PM
Recipient E-mail
Sender E-mail
The driving logs disprove many of Broder's claims
Tesla CEO Elon Musk has fulfilled his promise to provide the driving logs from
the recent Model S test drive
The New York Times
-- and it looks like John Broder has some explaining to do.
Broder, the NYT staff writer that took a Tesla Model S for a test trip up the east coast this winter, published a final article that
details a failed trip and the many troubles the car gave him along the way.
However, Musk became suspicious of Broder's claims when so many other journalists had made similar or more tasking trips in the Model S.
"To date, hundreds of journalists have test driven the Model S in every scenario you can imagine," said Musk. "The car has been driven through Death Valley (the hottest place on Earth) in the middle of summer and on a track of pure ice in a Minnesota winter. It has traveled over 600 miles in a day from the snowcapped peaks of Tahoe to Los Angeles, which made the very first use of the Supercharger network, and moreover by no lesser person than another reporter from
The New York Times
. Yet, somehow John Broder 'discovered' a problem and was unavoidably left stranded on the road. Or was he?"
Musk dug up
the driving logs from Broder's trip
, and earlier this week, he said he would share these discoveries after claiming that Broder had "faked" his article. Now, Musk has come equipped with the goods and it's not looking good for Broder.
Musk first addressed Broder's claim that the Model S ran completely out of energy and required a flatbed truck to tow it in Connecticut. Musk said the car never, at any time, ran out of energy.
Broder's article also mentioned that the Model S fell short of its projected range "on the final leg" of the trip, which was 61 miles total. On his final charge before embarking on this last leg of 61 miles, the logs show that Broder disconnected the charge cable when the range display showed only 32 miles. However, despite not fully charging the car, it managed to travel 51 miles -- and still wasn't completely out of charge when the flatbed truck was called for a tow. Also, during that last leg of the trip, Broder drive right past another charging station where he could have given the Model S another boost. But Musk said Broder "constructed a no-win scenario for any vehicle, electric or gasoline."
Musk also said that Broder never set the cruise control to 54 MPH or drove at 45 MPH, as stated in the article. Instead, he drove at speeds of 65-81 MPH for a majority of the trip.
He also had the cabin temperature at 72 degrees, and when he mentioned turning it down in the article, he had actually turned it up to 74 degrees.
Musk further noted that Broder's charge time on the second stop was 47 minutes, and not 58 minutes as stated in the article's graphic. If Broder didn't turn off the Supercharger at 47 minutes and went for the full 58, it would have been "virtually impossible" for him to run out of energy so quickly.
Speaking of charging, the driving logs also showed that Broder recharged the car to 90 percent on his first stop, to 72 percent on the second Supercharge and to 28 percent on the last leg -- signficantly cutting charging times at each stop.
Finally, Musk's driving logs from the Model S show that Broder had taken a long detour in Manhattan, and upon reaching Milford, Connecticut (where the range display said 0 miles), he drove the car in circles in a for over a half mile in a tiny parking lot. The Model S wouldn't give in and die, so Broder finally took it to the charging station.
Musk added that Broder was biased against electric vehicles from the start, and had set out to make the Model S fail before even receiving the car.
"When the facts didn't suit his opinion, he simply changed the facts," said Musk. "Our request of
The New York Times
is simple and fair: please investigate this article and determine the truth. You are a news organization where that principle is of paramount importance and what is at stake for sustainable transport is simply too important to the world to ignore."
Broder, who had his article published last week, was given a
Model S sedan
with an EPA rated 265-mile estimated range with an 85-kilowatt battery pack. He traveled from the
Washington area in Maryland to Norwich, Connecticut, with many stops in between including Newark, Delaware; New York City; Milford, Connecticut; Branford, Connecticut and Groton, Connecticut.
During his trip, Broder mentioned many instances where the battery suddenly depleted quickly and he had to call Tesla for assistance on how to maximize range between charging stops (which were about 200 miles apart from one another or less during the trip). He said he received different advice from different Tesla employees, and even bad advice from one that said to sit in the car for half an hour with the heat on a low setting in order to warm the battery after it depleted from an overnight stay in Groton. At one point, Broder said the car even needed to be towed in Branford because the battery drained much sooner than anticipated.
Let's see what Broder has to say now.

At Murphy-Goode, winemaking isn't just a family business; it's a family tradition - one that's endured since its founding in 1985 by friends Tim Murphy, Dale Goode and Dave Ready, and lives on in its current owners, the Jackson family. It's a tradition based on a shared appreciation of friendship, hard work, a wicked sense of humor and, of course, a good bottle of wine. Although currently more Bordeaux focused, in the early days of Murphy-Goode "a good bottle of wine" meant one of two things: fume blanc or chardonnay, both made with grapes harvested entirely from Murphy Ranch and Murphy-Goode Vineyard. But as the popularity of their wine grew, so did the need for additional vineyards. The solution? Simply bring more friends into the gold by creating partnerships with local farms and neighbors who shared the Murphy-Goode vision. In the summer of 2006, one such neighbor, friend and fellow winemaker Jess Jackson, displayed such a strong belief in this vision that he purchased Murphy-Goode. The winery is still very much a family-oriented operation today, with the Murphys retaining their original vineyards and David Ready, Jr., son of one of the original founders, continuing on as Murphy-Goode's winemaker. Though now, of course, they create more than just fume blanc and chardonnay. In fact in recent years, as newly planted vineyards have come into production, the winery's focus has shifted from primarily white wine to distinctive reds - particularly Bordeaux blends produced from grape varieties that excel in the Alexander Valley. And so the tradition continues: friendship, hard work, a wicked sense of humor and, of course, a good bottle of wine.
Ménage à Trois
Three Thieves
Like Robin Hood and his Merry Men, the Three Thieves 'stole' from the rich, and made great wine accessible to everyone—from NASCAR fans looking for something to pair with their drive-thru dinners, to soccer moms looking for a respite from their busy days. They believed that there was more to good wine than fancy bottles, and their first release, a Zinfandel bottled in a one-liter glass jug with a screw top, proved their point when it was a huge hit with wine lovers everywhere. Soon afterwards, Three Thieves released jugs of Cabernet and Chardonnay to much hoopla and fanfare and their reputation as mavericks was sealed. Their outside-the-box thinking soon became inside-the-box thinking when they again pushed the boundaries with Tetra Pak Bandits. Inside of these lightweight, eco-friendly, resealable boxes, is the kind of tremendous quality wine people have come to expect from Three Thieves.

Good list! Would also include Starfighter (http://www.starfightercomic.com), Bridges (http://bridgescomic.net/), and Teahouse (http://teahousecomic.com/comic/).
I found a new comic to read today
Oh and Able Boddy (http://www.abelboddy.com/) along with 12″ Roommate, (http://www.meatcute.blogspot.com/) by the same artist.
Here are so more gay comics that I follow:

*Sigh* These comics, as well as every other comic I've seen with gay characters; are so stereotypical, and just cheesy… Not to mention the art in them isn't so great. I've been working on stories to many graphic novels, and video games; that have heterosexual characters in them, as well as gay- and I made sure to present the gay characters in ways comics and video games have not yet done so.
I thought that it would be great to actually create a story with the two male heroes in it ending up being lovers. I wanted to do something different, and also wanted to see how even heterosexuals would treat the characters. I'm very pleased with it so far because the reactions of the two heroes have been positive surprisingly.
I decided to do a lot of studying about male/male relationships and how they were viewed in the ancient world, and learned a lot of interesting things, that of course the media never accurately portrays in movies, even when the characters are gay. I made both characters masculine, there is no emulating male/female dynamic- which means they don't use terms like "boyfriend, or husband" and there is no talk of marriage between them. There are scenes in which they are intimate with each other, though there is absolutely no indication of one being the "top" and the other being the "bottom"- warriors in ancient times did not engage in such roles- and just had genital to genital sex, and did not want to emulate male/female by penetrating or being penetrated. I learned that there are a lot of gay men even today who follow the ideal view of male/male relationships as it was seen in ancient times. I thought it was quite interesting, cool, even beautiful so I wanted to show that.
I put a lot of detail in the story- both characters and their personalities, as well as how their relationship starts and develops, given the fact that the two of them aren't even meant to be friends as one of them is part of a class that is used as mindless weapons. Takes place in a post apocalyptic world, which got that way when someone wanting to play god, started messing with and merging science with magical/demonic stuff; its being called "Battle Requiem", and you'll see it around soon available for download and later paper, as well as a game later.
Briar Hollow by Terry Blas. http://www.briarhollowcomic.com Not super-gay like most gay web comics, but more about coming out and accepting who you are… etc…
@paladin27: Did you actually *read* TJ & Amal? Your criticism really makes it seem like you didn't and are just criticizing these comics because they don't conform to the "ideal" comic that you described yourself writing. TJ & Amal are not stereotypes and they don't fall into any kind of male/female dynamic.
I also really like Go Get A Roomie (http://www.gogetaroomie.com/)and Always Raining Here (http://alwaysraininghere.com/).
I actually also have a webcomic called Salmagundi (http://salmagundi.smackjeeves.com/) if anyone wants to check that out. It's also lgbt.
There is no denying, these webcomics are awesome and fantastic. But the fact that they are 'targeted' for a particular audience is also certain. This is the only reason why we cannot promote them openly. I love 'go get a roomie' for that matter.
You must check the gay comic strip "Diamond in the Rough" by Jym Shipman.
It is about a gay young man named Brandon and his family and friends who all
live in Toledo Ohio. It is a very sweet strip that demonstraits an

The need is constant.
Midwest flooding and tornadoes remind us that American Red Cross assistance can come in many forms
The American Red Cross has been in its largest flood relief effort in nearly 15 years. Throughout the Midwest and the country, more than 2,000 Red Cross workers are assisting people with vast amounts of clean up supplies, dozens of shelters and tens of thousands of meals. Some blood drives in flood-affected areas had to be cancelled, necessitating the need for blood donors in unaffected areas to help make up the shortfall. The generosity of neighbors throughout the Midwest has been remarkable, but more help is needed. Please consider donating your time, money and blood through your American Red Cross to aid in ongoing relief efforts and help prepare for the next disaster. Call 1-800-RED-CROSS or go online to redcross.org to learn how to volunteer or donate money. Call 1-800-GIVE-LIFE or go online to givebloodgivelife.org to learn about blood donation and schedule an appointment.
Wisconsin Super Donor
Deb Freitag looks for ways to help others. In high school, she became a blood donor at the prompting of her health teacher. When she received her donor ID card and discovered she has type O positive blood, a blood type in great need, she made a pact with herself that she'd donate blood as regularly as possible for the rest of her life. "I've kept that pact for over 13 years," she said.
Deb and her husband also volunteer at their church Red Cross blood drives every three months. She also shares the value of blood donation with her 7th grade "Project World" students and is teaching them how they can make a positive impact in their community. Since they are too young to donate, the students will recruit parents, relatives and friends to give blood at a drive they plan to host at their school next year. Click here for Deb's full story. Click here to find out how you or your organization can host a blood drive.
Rocking with the Red Cross to Meet the Need
Red Cross blood donors can rock and help save lives this summer at Music Saves Lives blood drives. All donors who present to give blood at these participating Music Saves Lives blood drives will receive a FREE backstage pass to The Vans Warped Tour.
The Red Cross staged a Music Saves Lives concert blood drive in Council Bluffs, Iowa on May 31 which included a meet and greet with Music Saves lives band Motion City Soundtrack pictured below with Red Cross blood donor.
Peggy Sellars gives gift of life by giving platelets
Peggy Sellars, a blood and platelet donor since the 1980's, has always known she could help patients by donating blood – people she may never know anything about. However, during the past year, Sellars has been called upon to help a specific patient in need.
A patient at the University of Chicago was hospitalized for an extremely low platelet count and was not responding to platelet transfusions – until she received Sellars' platelets that were a close match to her own.
Sellars now donates every time she is asked for this patient, even changing work and personal schedules to accommodate a donation. Sellars has heard that this patient recently received a bone marrow transplant and will continue to need platelet transfusions for the next three to four weeks until her new bone marrow begins to generate platelets.
"It is very rewarding to donate for someone," Sellars said. "I know I won't be able to meet her, but I would like to give her a hug."
Click here for information about why increasing your calcium intake prior to platelet donation can be important.

23-year-old Ganna Buryak from Ukraine was simply irresistible in the combined event of the World Cup #3 in Chengdu, China, with the 2011 Junior World Championships silver medallist crossing the line in first place to take her place amongst the pantheons of senior champions.
Some sharp-shooting and quick feet in the windy conditions ensured she finished ahead of the Chinese duo of Wanxia Liang and Wei Wang who placed, to the delight of the crowd, second and third respectively. Buryak had earlier come in 26th place in the ride so was not expected to finish anywhere near the front but her sensational time of 13:05:99 round the track made sure of her first title.
Iryna Khokhlova came in fourth place and ride winner Ludmila Kukushkina was fifth. France's Elodie Clouvel, the dominant force in the pool then made up the top six.Women's Final Results Table

Ron Hinkle's hand-blown glassware is a favorite of wedding couples. These ice screamers, which come in a variety of colors, will serve many sweet treats.
The bride and groom might enjoy Jeff Fetty's calla lily candlesticks. These candlesticks are his original design and are made from iron, finished in natural black and range in height from 18 to 20 inches. Sold in sets of three, these candlesticks make an elegant display for the couple's mantle or table. Add a MountainMade taper candle.
MountainMade recently received an order from our potter, Lambros. He creates functional pottery pieces in a variety of popular colors. His coffee mugs, soup cups, casseroles, bowls, etc., are certain to be enjoyed for years to come.
But if it's Blenko you want to give, MountainMade will have a new selection by Friday. Check the website or give us a call.

Danny Meyer on Hospitality
The iconic fashion house Hermès is synonymous not only with luxury but with painstaking, precise workmanship. What better way for the label to celebrate its 175th anniversary than by offering a glimpse at the way its scarves, leather goods, watches, jewelry, and clothing are created, from the first sketch to the final stitch?
"We wanted to let the people who love Hermès meet the craftsmen who make our products so unique," says Guillaume de Seynes, a sixth-generation Hermès family member. To that end, the firm conceived the Festival des Métiers, a weeklong "festival of trades" held in September at an event space on Manhattan's Park Avenue. (The exhibition subsequently traveled to San Francisco and Houston.) To launch the project, Hermès threw a dinner at which a leather craftsman, a diamond setter, a watchmaker, and other artisans were on hand to demonstrate their skills to such guests as Estée Lauder president John Demsey, Jamie Tisch, NASCAR driver Jeff Gordon, actress Allison Sarofim, fashion designer Phillip Lim, celebrity dermatologist Lisa Airan, and others.

Traveling the Gulf Coast
Photograph by Justin Bailie
Writer Aimee Brown and photographer Justin Bailie traveled to the Gulf Coast during the height of the Deepwater Horizon oil spill to see how the story was playing out beyond the headlines. Visiting the homes and towns throughout the region, they sought to tell the story of the people of the Gulf—the people who love, live, work, and play in an area that has experienced continual hardship at the hands of both humanity and nature.
"We sat with them and learned about their connection to the place," says Brown. "And were witness to their inspiration, kindness, humor, and beauty."
This slide show captures ten lessons learned in southern Louisiana's bayou country.
1. Life in the Bayou
Photograph by Justin Bailie
The bayou teems with life. More fish than I've ever seen swim in the murky waters. They jump in schools. I can't tell if they're afraid, excited, or joyful, but every time they leap as a unified mass I'm startled and find myself laughing at the absurdity of these tiny little fish trying so hard to fly.

2. Beware of Alligators
Photograph by Justin Bailie
There really are alligators here. They are likely to show up if you sit and dangle your feet off one of the docks into the water. Don't do this.
3. Shrimper's Row
Photograph by Justin Bailie
Shrimper's Row is called Shrimper's Row for a reason. We passed more shrimp boats than cars. Everyone wears white rubber boots that come up to mid-shin. Flip-flops stick out.
4. Boat Wrecks
Photograph by Justin Bailie
Wrecked boats sit capsized on the along the shores of the bayou as evidence of past hurricanes. Insuring a boat is cost prohibitive, and the majority of fishermen opt not to carry policies. Most of the time they're able to dry dock the boats before storms arrive, but sometimes it doesn't happen. It's not like the scene in Forest Gump where Tom Hanks sails his boat through the storm.
5. Happy Birds
Photograph by Justin Bailie
The already high water table means that when it rains fields and yards flood, becoming lakes and wetland. The birds love this. They come out in droves to feast on the insects and invertebrates that must leave the soil or drown. We witnessed a heron spear a small crab, rip off its head, then move on to its next victim. Trophy hunting.
6. Cajun French
Photograph by Justin Bailie
Adults speak Cajun French when they want to have a private conversation in front of children, 20-somethings, or visitors from the Pacific Northwest. It's lyrical, beautiful, and fast. The appeal of having a secret conversation in a room full of people reminds me of being 12 and learning to speak pig Latin with a girlfriend.
7. Boat Love
Photograph by Justin Bailie
Most men seem to have gotten their first boat when they were ten years old. It's a rite of passage similar to getting a bike in the suburbs, and grants the same sort of freedom of exploration. The women, though seemingly comfortable and enthusiastic about being in the boats, don't seem as drawn to owning them, or talking about them at length.
8. Plate Lunches
Photograph by Justin Bailie
From Bon Creole in New Iberia, to Annie's on Grand Caillou Road, plate lunches are served up daily. These meals aren't covered on the menu, rather they're built from fresh ingredients readily on hand, and when served are reminiscent of a family meal. From spaghetti to meatloaf, seafood to green beans, it's home cooking done for a crowd.
Read Aimee Brown's "Open Letter to Gumbo."
9. Family Fishing
Photograph by Justin Bailie
Fishing in the bayou is a family affair. High-end rods, reels, and gear don't seem to matter much. Baiting your own hook, comparing biggest and smallest catches, and catching-up on daily affairs and the comings and goings of neighbors and friends—those are what count.
10. Shrimping at Night
Photograph by Justin Bailie
Shrimping happens at night. The best time to talk with a shrimp boat captain is either in the hour before dusk or mid-morning after they've unloaded their hulls and washed off their decks. The morning hours are also the best time to score amazingly fresh shrimp directly off the boat. On that note, uncooked fresh shrimp should not be pink or red. If they are, they have gone bad, and as one fisherman put it, should not even be served to the fish as bait.

Happy Father's Day Week!
June 6, 2011 by Core'dinator
Filed under Core Blog, Jillibean Soup, My Mind's Eye
This week we are celebrating Fathers and Family here on the blog!
We are kicking it off with two layouts from Debbie Standard. Debbie packs her layouts FULL of amazing details so grab your coffee and be ready to get inspired!
For this first layout, Debbie sanded a sheet of My Mind's Eye Core Impressions. It looks beautiful with the bright blue embossed Core Essentials. And check out the fun details from the 4×6″ mini My Mind's Eye collection pack! They go perfectly together. And of course those fun photos of the kids playing around with their Dad. They just make you smile!
Next up, Debbie shares with us another layout about family. For this layout Debbie scored her Whitewash background . Such an easy and quick way to make your own background!
The flowers are stamped. All you need to do is turn your Core'dinations over and stamp on the backside for a nice, smooth finish.
AND…yes, there is more! Debbie printed her clouds from her computer using a digital image directly on some Whitewash and the sanded.

"I was able to pick the color and font that I wanted. Loved that I could personalize with my own picture. Magnets are a great way to help ensure that people don't discard them. The quality was amazing. People loved them! Wonderful product, everything I expected and more."
"We used a colorful print that had grey background hues, which complemented the text box portion of this card well. The designer helped us center our image and optimize it for printing. We are very happy with our purchase and can't wait to send these out! As others have said, keep in mind that these post cards are on the small side, but we knew that going in and thus got what we expected."
"The magnets turned out even better than I expected. All the pictures looked really good with the chevron background and I received so many compliments."
"My fiancée actually picked this design for our save the dates! I wasn't sold on it at first, but it was his favorite, and after we personalized it and made it look exactly how we wanted it to, I started to love it. Once they arrived in the mail, I was so impressed with the quality and how cute they turned out! I'm definitely glad we chose this design, and that we were able to do some things to make it our own. We will absolutely be returning to personalize and purchase formal invitations!"
"I loved having the ability to choose up to 4 photos since we took so many for our engagement shoot, yet they were organized in a way they still made it look simple and tasteful! Being able to choose colors that matched was great, as well as writing a detailed message on the back! Also, saving on postcard postage was definitely a huge plus!!!"

Bach, Richard
Bach, Richard 1936–
Bach is an American novelist, screenwriter, and essayist. He is best known for Jonathan Livingston Seagull, a novel that Bach claims was inspired by a vision. The novel was a tremendous financial success, although most critics found it banal in theme and simplistic in its ersatz philosophical pretensions. (See also Contemporary Authors, Vols. 9-12, rev. ed., and Something about the Author, Vol. 13.)
Jean Caffey Lyles
[Some] reviewers have not hesitated to place Jonathan alongside Antoine de Saint Exupéry's small classic [The Little Prince]. It is true that Saint-Exupéry, like Richard Bach, was an aviator, but—though this may be heresy to Jonathan-cultists—that's where the resemblance ends. Bach's heavy-handed allegory is no match for the whimsical charm and gentle wit of The Little Prince…. (p. 1186)
Jonathan's success in the general book trade is another phenomenon altogether. For example, the Reader's Digest, that official organ of Middle Americanism, published a condensation of the book in its May issue. Clearly, here is a work that transcends not only age but culture and politics. Possibly the aspect most responsible for moving Jonathan off the shelves is its ambiguity. There's enough symbolism and allegory in the story to delight the most avid symbol hunter. Moby Dick it's not; nor am I prepared to class it with The Old Man and the Sea. But symbols it's got. And the great virtue of this book is that it means precisely what you want it to mean…. No matter what your age, sex, race, annual income, religion or politics, somewhere in the context of your life you can find a use for Jonathan's message that there are "no limits."… What Bach has done in essence is to market that panacea of the '50s, the power of positive thinking, in the packaging of the '70s, so that it can be swallowed whole even by those who share the late Adlai Stevenson's sentiments that "I have always found St. Paul appealing and St. Peale appalling." (pp. 1186-87)
Jean Caffey Lyles, "The 'Jonathan' Bonanza," in The Christian Century (copyright 1972 Christian Century Foundation; reprinted by permission from the November 22, 1972 issue of The Christian Century), Vol. LXXXIX, No. 42, November 22, 1972, pp. 1185-87.
John Carey
Mr Bach's nice, soggy Christianity [in Jonathan Livingston Seagull] could not be expected to fit in unpleasantnesses like the Crucifixion. His book is for those who think the world would be a lovely place if it were full of chummy people and tame animals. Needless to say, such beliefs are for the most part readily divorceable from their owners' actual conduct. It's of interest that Jonathan's spiritual aviation should prove so endearing to a nation currently using its own air power to crush North Vietnam.
John Carey, "The Good in Every Gull," in The Listener (© British Broadcasting Corp. 1972; reprinted by permission of John Carey), Vol. 88, No. 2280, December 7, 1972, p. 797.∗
Arthur G. Hansen
There is no doubt that Bach is passionate about the realm of flight. In fact, flying to Bach is almost a religious experience, and his final essay in [A Gift of Wings] comes close to saying just that…. If the sky is symbolic of God, the airplane becomes the physical entity coalescing with the human spirit to provide the ritualistic act of worship. The airplane becomes an extension of the flyer. No mere assemblage of nuts and bolts, it is capable of responses (so Bach would claim) that almost transcend physical laws—at least if the aircraft has received tender, loving care. References to airplanes are on an intimate level….
Here are the stories of an unblushing romanticist—a latter-day Icarus with his gift of wings. While a "white-knuckle" air traveler may fail to appreciate Bach's peculiar perspective, his style and enthusiasm will undoubtedly make an impression. But the book does, nevertheless, have some depth to it.
Basically, this is an accounting of one man's feelings about life and the things that make life worth living. Flying is the means for expression rather than an end in itself. Readers of Jonathan Livingston Seagull will catch the significance of Bach's remark, "Flying, once again, is overcoming, not the distance from here to Nantucket, but the distance from here to perfection." Flying is aimed at finding life itself and of living it in the present. It is the challenge of independence—"If you wish a world where your destiny rests completely in your own hands, chances are that you are a naturally born pilot." One suspects that the main issue under discussion in A Gift of Wings is the never-ending search for transcendence. This was also the core of Jonathan—we really can be more than we are if we try hard enough. We all have the means to do so. What we need is the will, an adventuresome spirit, and an idea of what we might eventually become with practice and effort….
Bach has a passion and a pen and he puts the two together with warmth and skill. If one wishes a bit of spirit-lifting along with pleasurable reading, then Richard Bach's A Gift of Wings is certainly worth examining.
Arthur G. Hansen, "The Saturday Evening Post Bookshelf: 'A Gift of Wings'," in The Saturday Evening Post (reprinted with permission from The Saturday Evening Post Company © 1975), Vol. 249, No. 3, April, 1975, p. 72.
Richard R. Lingeman
I guess a lot of things that are said in ["Illusions"] are the kind of sentences somebody might want to embroider on a sampler—or bake into a fortune cookie. Bach seems sincere—he even ends up a messiah himself in the book and says there's room at the top for everybody. Maybe there's some truth in this—I can't really tell one way or another. My own inclination after reading it was to think up some sayings of my own like, "If this book helps get you through the night, then it's better than Jack Daniels" and "Ideas are not necessarily true if you can't disprove them" and "Everybody is free to do anything, including ignore this book."
Richard R. Lingeman, "Books: New Wings, Old Seagull," in The New York Times (© 1977 by The New York Times Company; reprinted by permission), April 1, 1977, p. C27.
Andrew M. Greeley
As serious religion, "Illusions" does not even begin to be anything more than [fantasy literature]. The twin problems of purpose and evil with which religion has traditionally wrestled are not even addressed, but dismissed as illusory. If religion is the modest dogma that God is not mad, then "Illusions" is an irreligious book, because it suggests that it doesn't matter whether He is or not. Nor do the simple ethical imperatives of Shimoda do justice to humankind's agonizing over the implications of its world views of moral behavior. Shimoda and Bach dismiss ethical ambiguities as easily as they dispose of existential anxieties.
It is hardly fair, I suppose, to apply such serious paradigms to a playful exercise of the fantastic imagination; still, one has the impression that Bach wants the book to be taken very seriously indeed. It is fantasy, all right, but fantasy with implications for action. We should all live the way Shimoda did.
Ultimately one's judgment of "Illusions" will depend on one's taste for the fantastic. Some will think it heretical, even blasphemous—if such sins can still be committed. Others will find it cloying and cute. Many readers may decide that it is a charming, light-hearted story with important insights into the meaning of human life.
For whatever it may be worth, my own reaction was underwhelming…. I think I'll stick with St. Mark.
Andrew M. Greeley, "Jonathan Livingston Shimoda," in The New York Times Book Review (© 1977 by The New York Times Company; reprinted by permission), April 10, 1977, p. 11.
JOSEPH McLELLAN
It would not be quite accurate to say that the material in Illusions is shopworn, but it is becoming common currency in the reading offered to American mass audiences: enlightenment, miracles, reincarnation, out-of-body experiences….
There is nothing particularly wrong with [Bach's] anecdotal enlightenment, except that there is nothing particularly right about it either. It leaves the recipient where he was before the process began, except that he may have a dim recognition of the existence of other places. The problem, like the advantage, is that it is too easy; Lao Tzu might have said: "The Tao that is facile is not the true Tao."…
Perhaps the ultimate...

Flushing of intravenous locks in neonates: no evidence that heparin improves patency compared with saline
- School of Nursing, University Of Connecticut, Storrs, Connecticut, USA
- Correspondence to Sandra Bellini
School of Nursing, University Of Connecticut, 231 Glenbrook Rd., Storrs, CT 06269, USA; sandra.bellini{at}uconn.edu
Implications for practice and research
■ Nurses working in the neonatal intensive care unit (NICU) need to be mindful of the conflicting evidence supporting the use of heparin for maintenance of intravenous locks.
■ This study highlights the unsubstantiated and potentially dangerous routine practice of heparin administration for maintenance of intravenous locks in neonates.
■ Animal studies focusing on the use of heparin for maintenance of small-bore, low-flow central line catheters should be conducted to establish feasibility for subsequent neonatal studies.
The use of intravenous locks in neonates requiring stays in the NICU is widespread worldwide. These intravenous locks are used for administration of intermittent medications as well as administration of …

Hi! My name is Ariel. :) I have been vegetarian my entire life and recently became vegan. My parents didn't have to tell me a thing about what happened to the animals. I came into this world with a sense of awareness and my intuition told me that eating animals was bad. At just 4 years old I informed my mom that people ate cows! I am so lucky to have been born into a vegetarian/vegan family. <3 Other than being an animal rights activist I am a nature photographer (http://www.facebook.com/pages/ASP-Photography/173348909385062) and I would like to get into modeling. I am passionate about body art so I think Suicide Girls would be a good fit. I am also currently studying for the GED, then i'm off to cosmetology school, using only cruelty-free products of course!

Mentally, I picture history as a giant bludgeoning weapon, a maul of some sort, because I often feel as though I am being beaten about the head with it. Buckeyes fans have heard more than enough recent history in the past week to know exactly what I am talking about, but in case you missed it, I will briefly convey the highlights: -Ohio State has lost four of the last six against Wisconsin.-The Badgers have won their last three games in the shoe.-Only one team in the Big Ten has a winning record against Jim Tressel, Wisconsin (3-1). OK,I think that's it. That is all there is too it, and it is pretty clear, that Ohio State has not had a lot of recent success against Wisconsin, but I guess that depends on how you define recent. "History is merely a list of surprises. It can only prepare us to be surprised again."- Kurt VonneguatHistory lends itself to faulty deduction like no other form of education. Even the educated will often attempt to deduce a specific future outcome based on the general trends laid out by the past, paying little attention to the important differences that cause the outcome to deviate from the rule. In short, most of the time historical analysis in sport more closely resembles superstition that sound reasoning. Here are a couple reasons to rethink all that historical gibberish that you have heard in the last week, filing it away appropriately as bunk (paraphrasing Henry Ford)-In the ever-changing landscape of college football, Ohio State and Wisconsin have not played recently. The last time these two teams met was in 2004. Think about that for a second, A.J. Hawk would go on to play 19 more games for the Buckeyes following that game. None of the players that will meet in Ohio Stadium today played a significant role in that game, hell, Antonio Pittman, then just a red-shirt freshman, only had four carries in that game. -The coach that led Wisconsin to a 3-1 record vs. Jim Tressel is now the AD. He is not coaching. Will he help, Brett Bielema game plan for Jim Tressel's team? Sure, but that would imply that Jim Tressel has not evolved at all since 2004. -The 2007 Buckeyes are much better than the 2004 Buckeyes. Would you trade Lydell Ross for Chris Wells? Would you trade Justin Zwick for Todd Boeckman? Yep. -The 2007 Wisconsin Badgers are not good. "History, despite its wrenching pain, cannot be unlived, but if faced with courage, need not be lived again."- Maya Angelou

One Direction's Harry Styles on moving in with Caroline Flack
"My mum text me: 'I didn't know you were moving'"
We met up with One Direction last night for an interview. We've already posted the videos of them talking about their third single One Thing and discussing new album Up All Night. As we've pointed out the boys were INSANELY HYPERACTIVE to the point of NONSENSICAL RANDOMNESS, but we loved it.
In the next video we had to ask Harry Styles about all the Caroline Flack rumours, in particular, the crazy one about them moving in together, but what did he say?
Harry seemed pretty confused about the whole thing. He explained: "I didnt know anything about this then my mum text me: 'I didn't know you were moving'."
Louis became visibly distressed at the idea of Harry Styles moving out. It's ok Louis, he won't EVER leave you.
We were also wondering how Harry Styles was going to get revenge on Louis for all his Caroline Flack teasing. We can't really work out his answer, something about smelling? See if you can de-code it...
Liam - Weinius. Amazing.
What did you make of that then? Glad Harry Styles is not moving out with Caroline Flack? What were they going on about at the end?
