I know the season technically isn't over and we still have not solidified drafting spot but here are the guys I think the Giants should target in the draft.
1. Sheldon Richardson DT - Plain and simple we need a pass rusher on the inside. our pass rush is too easily negated by QB just stupping up in the pocket. we need our the pocket to look more like a "W" than a "U" (if you understand what I'm saying.)
2. Alec Ogletree ILB- I think this guy fits exactly what Fewell wants from his LBs. He's long, very athletic, sideline to sideline speed, and a former safety that has great coverage skills as a MLB to stay in on 3rd downs.
3. Jake Matthews RT- This guy is exactly what the Giants look for in o lineman. Length, agility, smarts, and between 300-310 lbs. Great blocker and has great bloodlines.

Brady is over rated since many feel he is the greatest QB ever. He is obviously a great QB. He obviously will go into the HOF and deserves to, but he is overrated.
Personally, I think Peyton is a better QB.
Spin that Webb young Davis
Tom Brady is competitteve and takes his team to the playoffs almost every year regardless of the personnel he has. The guy has been to 5 SuperBowls and is in no way overrated.
Peyton and Brady are probably the best 2 QB's in NFL history.
When their careers are over that's probably what the consensus will be.
"Typical Morehead!"..................and he didn't even mean that as a compliment..
It's like old times with the two of them playing the way they are - Peyton throwing all over the place and Brady taking what he's given. Both have their win streaks in place, too.
I can't even believe this conversation is happening. Are we really pushing back on the idea that both Brady and Peyton are the greatest of their generation and likely among the best ever and certainly better than Eli? Really?
Welkers drop was the players fault. And if you ask me, it was a bad pass. Tom has thrown a million better passes then that. It was high and behind Welker.
Its obvious you HATE Peyton Manning so that says it all right there. Peyton Fivehead? Come on, that is childish right there.

text: What exactly did the Giants tell Warner? I remember watching an interview when he was here and the person giving the interview asked him if he wanted to retire a Giant and he said "yes". It seemed like he expected to play for 5 years while the man we traded our future draft picks away for sat on the bench. If he was thinking that he's beyond delusional or we lied to him. I thought it was a bad idea bringing him in anyway... I guess we were trying to show some of our vets that weren't giving up on em.

A career in dentistry involves more than filling cavities and pulling teeth. Dentists detect diseases, diagnose problems affecting teeth and mouth tissue, improve a patient's appearance, surgically restore tooth and gum health, and help prevent future problems. They also educate patients on ways to maintain a healthy mouth.
Most dentistry schools:
- Require four years of college before they admit you to their program.
- Require you to take the Dental Admission Test.
Chemistry professor Dr. Darren Stoub will work closely with you to plan your program. His email address is firstname.lastname@example.com and campus visits are welcomed.
Typical pre-dentistry prerequisites
- General chemistry (two semesters)
- Organic chemistry (two semesters)
- Biochemistry (one semester)
- Physics (two semesters)
- English (two semesters)
- Biology (two to three semesters in zoology, embryology, or comparative anatomy)
- Psychology (one semester)

Australia provides a very useful smokescreen for the pesticide lobbyists because:
a. It's very far away
b. It's very big - 6th largest country in the world -7,690,00 sq km
c. Very few Americans have been there
d. Beekeeping there is largely 'bush-beekeeping' - in wild country
The honeys which are most-valuable from Australia are wild-floral honeys like acacia, manuka, eucalyptus, bush mallee, myrtle, meadow honey and a dozen others. About 90% of Australia's landscape is 'wild' - the great centre of the country is either desert or bush. Relatively little beekeeping is concerned with pollination of arable crops. Many beekeepers, according to Jeffrey Gibb, live solitary lives, ranging through the wild bush, collecting wild honey for sale. So, exposure to neonics is probably only in those areas where wheat, canola are grown and of those only neonic treated canola probably presents a real threat.
So, most of Oz beekeepers have little contact with neonics. The ones who run migratory pollination businesses in arable crop areas, like Warren Jones - are suffering large losses.
From The Buzz About Bees website run by Amanda Williams:
It is often claimed (by the pesticide industry) that Australia's honey bees are healthy despite the fact that neonicotinoids are used there.
The question is raised: If neonicotinoids kill bees, why arent Australian beekeepers losing theirs? or Neonicotinoids are used in Australia and they have healthy honey bees.
So is this true? Is everything hunky-dory for Australia's honey bees?
What do we know about Australian beekeepers and their experience of neonicotinoids, honey bees and beekeeping?
In June 2007 a very revealing document was produce by Mr Warren Jones, President of the Australian Crop Pollinators Association - see right.
Warren Jones explains about his role:
Youll see from the document that Warren Jones beekeeping experience and service to agriculture spans 34 years.I am the President of the Crop Pollination Association Inc. This association represents the beekeeper pollinators that service agriculture's pollination requirements across a broad range of crops in all eastern states, Western Australia,Tasmania and NT. We provide representation to AHBIC, the peak body established to represent all sectors of beekeeping.
In relation to this issue, of particular interest was this comment:
Page 4
By Autumn 2009, Warren Jones comments to The Australian Organic Producer in his article:There has been a wide use of neonicotinoids to treat a large range of pasture seed and other seed prior to planting, which includes most of our horticulture and vegetable production. Consequently our bees are continually in contact with neonicotinoids from the agricultural environment. We are finding it very difficult to maintain our hives at pollination strength, requiring an increase in use of young queens and replacement nucleus hives to maintain our hives
[B]Where Have All The Bees Gone?: [/B]
In this article, he makes it very clear that he believes neonicotinoids represent a real threat to Australia's honey bees, and comments:
He also points out that- one reason we have heard very little about the impact of neonics in Australia is that there is NO RESEARCH PROGRAMME OR RESEARCH INSTUTE STUDYING THE PROBLEM. Australia does not even have a bee-lab capable of detecting neonics at the ppb level.Currently in Australia the demand has never been higher for bee pollination but until more control on the use of neonicotinoids is established available bee numbers are unlikely to improve."
Meanwhile, Jeffrey Gibbs, in his article [B] Neonicotinoid Pesticides: To Australian Beekeepers from an Australian Beekeeper[/B], highlights concerns about neonicotinoids and provides some interesting insight into why Australian beekeepers seem to be relatively quiet on this issue or at least not making a major public fuss.To be a successful crop pollinator you have to have full knowledge of how the chemicals being used in a crop could harm the pollinating bees. We have to use either our own personal experience or overseas studies as there is no current Australian research available,
DOWNLOAD ARTICLE HERE: http://pierreterre.com/blog/neonicot...oid-pesticides
Jeffrey's article has some interesting quotes too, such as:
(Jack is referring to the fact that neonicotinoids are highly persistent i.e. they remain in the soil for years after the first planting. They can then be absorbed by other plants growing in that soil, and because they are systemic pesticides, they permeate the plant as it grows, and the poison may then be presented to bees and other non-target insects, through nectar and pollen, at toxic levels. This effect has been observed in scientific studies, such as Bonmatin et al 2004).Last October, I was helping Jack Alt of Deepwater, New South Wales shift a sizable load of bees, from a NEONIC seed treated canola plot at Premer NSW. We were shifting the bees back onto clover, closer to Jack's home. Although the bees had been on a bumper crop of canola, Jack was disturbed that his load of 250 hives had suffered premature swarming, loss of queens, loss of bee numbers and dead-outs. Jack then replaced queens, kept working the bees (as we all would), and kept the load on clover for the next few weeks. I observed the same hives later on a Silver Leaf [Iron Bark] flow. In my opinion there were less than half the bees there should have been, or even less. This was Jacks second Adverse Experience with his bees foraging canola over the last two years. I asked Jack: Do you think that this may be because of the seed treatment on canola? Jack replied, I dont think well be working canola anymore.
Jack is concerned about the (contamination with neonics) of the pollen of Turnip Weed and Salvation Jane coming up afterwards, in the same paddocks.
In September 2012, this Australian item was published on the net:
"Concern from beekeepers prompts review of some insecticides":
Anxious apiarists have prompted the nation's chemical regulator to review regulations around insecticides used in the grains, cotton and vegetable industries. The Australian Pesticides and Veterinery Medicines Authority is examing those products which contain neonicotinoids, a relatively new class of chemicals used as seed dressings.
Find it, by copying and pasting this link into a new web page:
So contrary to the view that Australias bees are having no problem with neonicotinoids, there is evidence that suggests otherwise. Seems like yet another argument to defend neonicotinoids that is not based in truth.
So let's see if the attack dogs respond to this by
addressing the issues
addressing the facts
engaging in reasoned debate
. . or are we back to personal attacks, harassment, invasion of privacy etc.
I think I can guess in advance what we will see.

Built it this winter, installed the package a few weeks ago. Thanks to Mr. Bush and Mr. Chandler for all of the great information shared on their sites.
They are doing great. Very busy. It is interesting how they take syrup. They hardly took any the first couple of weeks, then they took an entire jar in three days, now they are back to not taking very much.
My neighbor seems to like them also, which is a big plus.
If I can figure out how to load a picture I will.

Deutsche Bank Downgrades Gold Miners
Looks like this week could be as bad for gold miners as last week: In a research note this morning, analysts at Deutsche Bank Markets Research downgraded three stocks, cutting Barrick Gold (ABX) and Kinross Gold (KGC) to Hold from Buy, and lowering their rating for Newmont Mining (NEM) to Sell from Hold. They kept Goldcorp (GG) as a Hold.
Under a $1,500/oz gold price scenario (which is 7% higher-than-current price but ~15% lower than DB's official unchanged 2013/14 estimates), we believe NA Gold producers equity values become "scissored" between a sharply lower-than-expected gold price and still rising capex commitments/ operating costs/ cresting resource nationalism, leading to large potential shareholder dilution in 2H13. Under $1,500/oz gold price scenario, net present values decline by 21%, with larger drops to prior NPVs seen at Kinross and Newmont (given relative higher cost operations). Under an extreme $1,300/oz gold scenario NPVs fall 78%...
We re-ran our models at $1,300/oz gold price (vs $1,500/oz prior) and silver price of $20/oz ($25/oz) as a worst case scenario and were truly shocked by the outcomes. Balance challenges emerge, as cost inflation assumptions continue upward (despite assuming 3% cost inflation going forward vs 14% over previous 5 years), while production of many mines become uneconomic. Shutting down high cost mines could lead to exit and impairment costs and risk roiling government relations in developing markets which have already been strained by years of rising resource nationalism.
As if that wasn't bad enough, the analyst slashed their price targets, lowering the target for Barrick to $22.50 a share from $40, cutting Kinross to $6 from $9, Newmont to $24 from $40 and Goldcorp to $28 from $31.
Then again, stocks seem to be faring the downgrades well: With gold prices up 2.2% today, Newmont is up 1.2%, Goldcorp is rising 2.5% and Kinross is up 3.2%. (Barrick is down 1.2%.)
I'll simply note that in this week's Barron's, Andrew Bary wrote bullishly about gold miners, suggesting they could finally -- finally -- be worthy of investors' consideration.

I used to be terrified of making a mistake. But in my old age I've learned to embrace errors, because they usually lead to enlightenment (after the embarrassment wears off).
So I'm chagrined at confusing the Ohio Buckeyes with the Iowa Hawkeyes in an August-issue article about flooding in the HAWKEYE State. But at the same time, I'm gratified by the flurry of comments from readers anxious to set me straight.
Folks like Megan Miller, PE, a "proud native of the Hawkeye State" who's in Florida working for a solid waste management department. And folks who've happily adopted Iowa, like Mary Jo Finchum of Stanley Consultants, a transplant from the Show Me State (Missouri). And Ryan Morris at Gradall Industries, whose "Go, Bucks!" signoff makes me think he graduated from The Ohio State University.
The error is personally embarrassing because I went to college on the Illinois/Iowa border and have seen the University of Iowa Hawkeyes in action. What was I thinking?! But it proves you pay attention to what we PUBLIC WORKS editors work so hard to produce every month, and that you care enough to comment on it. There are 65,000 of you out there, and when you take the time to reach out — whether it's to praise or criticize or just say hello — we feel validated.
Which leads me to make a request:
Add me to your department's distribution list for press releases regarding major projects and new employees and promotions. It doesn't have to be anything fancy: just the who, what, when, where, why, and how of your team's accomplishment and, if possible, a photo. Or have the consulting, design, and engineering firms with which you work send the information. Some of our best story ideas come from readers, even their offspring.
The June issue's "Creative Cooperation" came from Nancy McKibben of Pinellas County Public Works in Florida, who expertly outlined how collaborating with CSX Transportation shaved three weeks off improvements to railroad grade crossings. We're working with Tom Logan, PE, of Covington, Ky., to show how public works will save $180,000 annually through an energy-savings performance contract.
"The necessary evil?" in the August issue came from Colby-Sawyer College freshman Kelsie Lee. Her father, public works director for the city of New London, N.H., urged her to submit her essay comparing public and media reaction to the on-the-job death of a 20-year-old public works employee to those of local police officers.
Another way to share your experiences is to respond to the quick-poll on the home page of www.pwmag.com. The results of last month's question — Have you ever felt pressured to misrepresent, under-report, or simply not report a permit violation? — are on page 11.
So my apologies to readers whom I inadvertently offended, and thank you for commenting.
And to the rest of you, don't be shy: firstname.lastname@example.com

After last week's Phoenix story came out, the company took a day and a half to have a PR person call (and then, not even from FairPoint directly, but from a Portland flack firm). And after I told the PR guy who called that I would love to talk to someone at FairPoint, it took them another day and a half (plus a weekend) to get someone "authorized to speak" on the phone with me.
Walt Leach, FairPoint's executive vice-president for corporate development, told me it was "misleading" to say that FairPoint wouldn't give workers raises for seven years. Though he agreed that the company was expecting not to pay any more wages in 2015 than it will pay in 2008 (after the merger, if it goes through), Leach promised to "honor the existing contract" with Verizon's 2700 or so union workers in Northern New England, and even to "extend it under existing conditions" if the unions would like.
But, Leach continued — and gave by far my favorite "explanation" from FairPoint about what was wrong with my story: FairPoint will hire 675 new workers, as promised to state officials (to tempt them into the deal), getting its total number of workers up to somewhere around 3400 in all three states. The company predicts that four percent of all those workers will leave within a year — including the equivalent of four percent of the 675 new hires! (Though "not necessarily" just-hired staffers, he says.)
Those workers will not be replaced (Leach calls it "attrition"), so, he says, FairPoint will have plenty of money to give raises to the ones left — the ones with more work to do (like handling billing and payments), with more equipment to install and maintain, the ones on whom residents of Maine, New Hampshire, and Vermont will be depending for reliable phone service (including E-911 service during life-threatening emergencies).
Leach says the company expects its employee numbers to drop by a little more than four percent every year — as landline-customer numbers decrease over time — and says the money those departed workers won't be making will be enough to cover everyone else's raises into the future.
Digging the hole deeper, Leach notes that the company's financial model includes $142 million for dividend payments to shareholders, and says that money could be repurposed "if it's needed" to improve service to telephone customers. But that puts dividends before service. Leach admits the company has not constructed its model to have $142 million in cash available to make service better (the company does not know how much it will cost to bring Verizon's existing lines up to workable standards), and then — only if there is money left — to pay dividends.

Box Score
EASTON, Pa. — Todd Heritage scored five goals, David Dickson handed out five assists and freshman Thomas Flibotte scored three times to finish off a nine-goal week, leading the 18th-ranked Bucknell men's lacrosse team to a 13-6 Patriot League road win over Lafayette on Saturday night at chilly Fisher Stadium. The Bison, now 6-1 overall and 2-0 in the Patriot League, won their fifth game in a row heading into a tough test at No. 2 Cornell on Tuesday.
Bucknell led 4-2 after one period and 7-3 at the half, but Lafayette got back in it by posting the only two goals of the third quarter. Kevin Wanke's tally pulled the Leopards within 7-5, but the Bison regained control with three straight goals from Heritage, Chase Bailey and Sean Doyle, and they outscored Lafayette 6-1 in the fourth quarter.
Dickson, who now has a league-high 22 assists in seven games this season, made a great feed to Heritage on that momentum-changing eighth goal. Dickson broke free from a defender at the with a change of direction at the point, and he somehow threaded a diagonal pass through traffic to Heritage for the quick-stick goal.
A clean faceoff win by Ryan Gutowski led to a fastbreak goal for Bailey just 28 seconds later, and then Doyle was on the receiving end of a Dickson pass to make it 10-5 with 9:35 to play.
Dickson also nabbed five ground balls in the game, and he has produced multiple assists in every game this season. The freshman Doyle logged two goals and three assists, and classmate Brock Ghelfi scored a pair of early goals to make it a seven-goal, three-assist evening for the first-year class.
Flibotte tied a Bucknell freshman record with a six-goal game in Tuesday's 17-8 rout of No. 13 Drexel. Against Lafayette he scored in the first, second and fourth quarters, and he now has a team-high 19 goals on the season, one more than Heritage.
Lafayette, which owns a win over Georgetown this season, received a pair of goals from Wanke and a goal and two assists from both Morgan Westby and Sonny Round.
The Bison finished with a 45-27 edge in shots and a 30-24 advantage in ground balls, even though the Leopards won 15 of the 23 faceoffs.
Bison goalie Kyle Feeney made nine of his 10 saves in the second half. Jake Hyatt stopped 12 shots, eight of which came in the second half.
Bucknell and Cornell will meet for the first time on Tuesday at 4 p.m. at Schoellkopf Field in Ithaca, N.Y. The second-ranked Big Red improved to 6-0 with a 12-10 win at No. 15 Yale on Saturday.

Hi Gmen,
I am travelling over from the UK tomorrow to NYC and I will be attending the game with the great Eagles at your house.
Any thing I need to know about coming as an overseas Eagles fan? Apart from the ball busting and you guys mentioning something called a SuperBow?
I'll be staying in Manhattan so is the train from Penn station to the Metlife stadium changing at Secaucus Junction on the way?

New Theories Arise to Explain Creation of the Moon

The Giant Impact Theory
(Source: starchild.gsfc.nasa.gov)
Two new studies attempt to prove the Giant Impact Theory in different ways
Two different studies say they've found evidence supporting the theory that
the moon
was created from a collision between Earth and a Mars-sized body.
The Giant Impact Theory, which was proposed back in 1975, suggests that the early Earth and a Mars-sized planet called Theia collided with one another. This completely obliterated Theia, and its composition created a ring around Earth and eventually came together to create the moon.
While scientists have been able to explain how this event occurred, one major thing didn't add up: the composition of the moon.
Scientists long believed that for this theory to be true, the moon would have to be composed mainly of Theia's elements. Moon rocks from that were brought to Earth were studied, and surprisingly, they had the same types and amounts of elements that the Earth had, including titanium, silicon and oxygen. This didn't make sense, and has left the theory wide open for the last 30+ years.
However, scientists from Washington University in St. Louis managed to measure a small excess of a heavier variant of zinc in moon rocks from that were brought to Earth in the 1970s. They believe the excess is due to
heavier zinc atoms
condensing out of the collision's cloud faster than the lighter zinc atoms, and the vapor that remained escaped before it condensed.
This bit of sorting by mass is called isotopic fractionation, and it's what scientists have been looking for all along. This shows that the moon rocks were depleted of easily evaporated elements called volatiles, and a large collision could explain this depletion while other theories can't.
"The magnitude of the fractionation we measured in lunar rocks is 10 times larger than what we see in terrestrial and Martian rocks," said Frédéric Moynier, PhD, from Washington University in St. Louis. "So it's an important difference."
But the Washington University team isn't the only one to bring new evidence to the table. Robin Canup, a planetary scientist from the Southwest Research Institute Colorado, used Harvard scientists' findings to create a theory of her own related to the collision.
According to the Harvard team, which used computer simulations to create its theory, ancient Earth had to have been spinning too fast for today's 24-hour rotation. They suggested that early Earth and a body half the size of Mars could have collided where both were obliterated and combined elements to create both
the moon and Earth's
heavy iron core/lighter rock layers.
At a later point, Earth's rotation could have slowed due to the moon and sun aligning in a way that changed Earth's orbit.
Canup used the idea that Earth's rotation was slowed and came up with the theory that two bodies similar in size collided at a slow speed, and their materials merged to create the Earth and moon.

The World's Columbian Exposition witnessed the birth of a new Chicago that had rebuilt itself from the ashes of the great fire more than 20 years before. The world's fair launched an era of economic growth and hope for Chicago—and the nation—and served as a monument of civic pride for the city's leaders and citizens alike.
Exelon is honored to help celebrate that defining moment as a lead sponsor of The Field Museum's newest exhibition, Opening the Vaults: Wonders of the 1893 World's Fair.
The exhibition brings to life the spirit and optimism of that historic, six-month event 120 years ago. The 1893 world's fair marked not only the creation of The Field Museum itself to house natural science collections displayed at the Exposition, but one of the first examples of wide-scale electricity use—most notably, the lights illuminating the boulevards and buildings of the "White City" at night and paving the way for the founding of our own Chicago utility, Commonwealth Edison, in 1907.
Exelon is committed to supporting the arts and culture and education to help Chicago residents and visitors understand the historical events that made the city the influential cultural center it is today. With this exhibit, Exelon hopes visitors will gain insight into the World's Columbian Exposition, which brought together diverse cultures and artistic treasures to shape our world-class city in the present day.
We are pleased to continue our partnership with The Field Museum and hope you enjoy Opening the Vaults: Wonders of the 1893 World's Fair.

I often think that some of he names that we call the foods we eat are quite funny..
Today I came across the recipe for Nun's Farts that I have been meaning to make for a while .. The name never fails to make me laugh !
Stargazey Pie .. A pie with fish heads peeping out towards the sky .. Never made this .
Spotted Dick ... A steamed pudding with currants that used to be made in a roll shape , but more often now is made in a pudding basin.
Pigs in Blankets .. Bacon wrapped round sausages
Devils on horseback ... Bacon wrapped round prunes
Toad in the hole ...sausages cooked in ayorkshire pudding type batter .
Hodgepodge Pie .. A meat 'pie' with pearl barely in the mix topped with sliced potato and cheese
There are all sorts of strange names for dishes I thought it would be fun to name some ..
I know that Minnie will come up with a huge list of them
Keep adding to the list please everyone

At night, this 17th century colorful district is transformed into the city's vibrant nightlife quarter. The main streets and narrow passageways are bustling with activity of dozens of excellent traditional restaurants, «fado singing houses», cafés, and a multitude of sleek clubs and bars that stay open until late. In recent years, «Bairro Alto» is also an alternative shopping destination, for those looking for trendy design shops, art galleries and bookshops.
There are several buses and trams, and subway, 5 minutes away, although one can easily walk to the main points of the city.Two minutes walking is the heart of the glamorous and cosmopolitan city can still be felt in the Chiado, a place where the "new" and "old" live in harmony. Characterized by casual-chic atmosphere, with streets full of shops, fine restaurants, beautiful cobblestone, beautiful churches and timeless cafes, Chiado makes any visitor feel real Lisbon.
Chiado is where Lisbon's history and urbanity meet. This tourist area of the capital begins at the Brasileira café, on Rua Garrett. Was open in 1905 and it´s one of Lisbon's postcards. On the sidewalk you will find the different urban tribes and a statue of poet Fernando Pessoa, who offers his lap for tourist photos.
Next to it, two churches remind the vanished towers of Santa Catarina Gate. The Church of Loreto, built in 1528 by Italians living in Lisbon, was partially destroyed by the 1755 earthquake, but later rebuilt and one of the places to visit on Chiado. The Church of Encarnação, inaugurated in 1708, was also hit in 1755 and rebuilt later. But Chiado has more than just two churches to see.
Luís de Camões square, which any "lisboeta" will call Largo Camões, is not just a passing place. Sit on the steps of the poet's monument and enjoy the bustle that Chiado has. But do not leave Chiado without inquiring about the theatres. São Luiz Municipal Theatre was one of Lisbon's first cinemas. Today it is a municipal theatre with a rich and varied programming. Also glimpse the Teatro Trindade and the S. Carlos Opera House.
This is one of the city´s best shopping areas. You will find international brand shops (Hermès and Hugo Boss, for example) and great Portuguese designers like José António Tenente (Tv. Carmo, 8) StoryTailors (Cç. Do Ferragial, 8) or Atelier Alves/Gonçalves (Tv. Guilherme Cossul, 16).
It is not difficult to come across public figures, mainly artists. There are several art schools in the area, like the Fine Arts Faculty. Even if you are not an expert, venture into the Chiado Museum - National Museum of Contemporary Art (Rua Serpa Pinto, 4) besides well-cared exhibitions, it has a pleasant patio to have lunch or simply sip a coffee. There is also a big offer for meals: Café Royale, New Wok and Kaffee Hause are excellent choices.

The Apartment was perfect everything you need was there ...
The only Problem was that The cooker didnt work
The Host Are also very nice and helpful
The area is next To a Bus and a train and you can even Walk everything is nearby
I would definitly recommend it
El anfitrión no vino a recibirnos hasta pasadas cuatro horas desde nuestra llegada, teniendo que estar esperando en la calle con un bebe el cual se puso enfermo del frío que pasamos. El apartamento mucho más viejo de lo que se ve en la foto. El plato de ducha todo oxidado y la cortina sucia. Jamás volveré a este apartamento. Fué patético.

Belo apartamento no centro de "Bairro Alto", onde passamos uma estadia agradável e divertida. Sara, a menina que nos deu as chaves, foi muito simpática e prestativa.
Nice apartment in the center of "Barrio Alto", where we spent a pleasant and enjoyable stay. Sara, the girl who gave us the keys, was very friendly and helpful.
We had a wonderful time in this little appartement in Lisboa! Everything was clean and cozy! The appartement is directly in the Barrio Alto so we could do everything by foot. We also cooked two times in the kitchen and had super nice evenings in the appartement with the two little "balconys"! We can definitely recommend this place!
Clara, Lena, Theresa, Laura
The Apartment is prefectly located, clean and has everything you Need. Filipe and his Team Are very friendly and helpfull. He also allowed us to Check out two Hours later, which was very kind. I highly recommend the Stay there.
We spent some days in the studio and really enjoyed the nice view of the kitchen-window. It is no worth cooking in the apartment as going out for lunch is really cheap and the kitchen is just equipped to prepare a quick sandwich or pasta, not a hole meal. Clean bathroom and rooms, only the bed is, in my opinion, very uncomfortable and not like written "getting out of the bed will be difficult" in a positive sense. Communication with the host was very easy, friendly and cooperative!!
For the last days we had to move to another apartment as they started with some demolition works next door. But this may occur at any place and WIMDU really did a good job to solve this problem. Thanks a lot for this!
Nice apartment and very friendly and helpful hosts. Only we were missing a wardrobe or some shelfs to store our cloths. The area was perfect to start exploring Lisbon. At night a bit loud.
nice location, everything was fine. thanks to some frensh party people was noisy that days. bathroom is very small and on suite!! was clean but somehow very used. maybe you like to bring your own pillow.
It is a spacious, clean and well located (short walk to Bairro Alto, Viewpoint, Rossio, etc.) ikea flat. Marisa estimated our arrival time pretty right, so the check-in went smoothly and on top we got a lot of good advice what to do, see and how to get around! :) If you plan on cooking in the flat you might bring your own salt and pepper from home, if you don't want to buy it. All the kitchen supplies are available but there is nothing like salt, tea or coffee.
The bed is comfortable. Not sure about the couch, if you are more than tweo people, but it will work for a few days I guess. If you have a light sleep you better bring earplugs (it's a quiet neighbourhood and not loud at all, but if there's noise outside you can hear it).
I can definitely recommend the flat as homebase for a short trip to Lisbon and the Short Stay Flat team and service is wonderful! :)

You might have seen Chase Whiteside and Erick Stoll, seniors at Wright State University in Dayton, Ohio, around town in the days leading up to November 3. They and their videocamera comprise New Left Media, a young outfit that makes short documentaries about liberal issues around the country, and they came to Maine to record the final push for gay marriage. The result is a two-part YouTube documentary that shows the passion of the No On 1 campaign, and the community's reaction to defeat. It also places Maine's fight in a national context, suggesting that gay-rights advocates need to step up their hardball game.
We caught up with Whiteside (the man in front of the camera) via e-mail this week.
WHY DID YOU DECIDE TO COVER THE GAY-MARRIAGE CAMPAIGN IN MAINE? Because, in our view, it was the most important election taking place in the country — for the first time, a state might vote in favor of marriage equality. After being blindsided by Prop 8 in California, Maine became a point of hope for the gay community nationwide, which made Question 1's passage (which I believe was a result of fear-mongering and lies) especially upsetting.
WHAT WAS YOUR EXPERIENCE FILMING THE LAST FEW DAYS OF THE MARRIAGE CAMPAIGN HERE? It was both amazing, and of course, devastating. Portland is not only a beautiful city (with some of the best food we've ever eaten) but the people were kind and welcoming. Up until the election result became clear, making this documentary was a real pleasure.
ONE OF THE MAJOR POINTS OF YOUR NO ON ONE FILM IS THAT THE DEMOCRATIC NATIONAL COMMITTEE AND THE OBAMA ADMINISTRATION SHOULD BE HELD ACCOUNTABLE FOR THEIR LACK OF SUPPORT HERE IN MAINE. WHAT WOULD SUCH ACCOUNTABILITY LOOK LIKE? It's troublesome not only that the DNC largely ignored this fight in Maine, refusing to mobilize its Organizing for America arm, which could have put thousands of organizers on the ground, but that they actually sent out an e-mail asking Mainers to help phone-bank for Jon Corzine's gubernatorial reelection in New Jersey, potentially diverting much-needed help in the final days of the campaign. They also neglected to contribute financially, even though the DNC reportedly raised over $1 million at a gay fundraiser in June. And while President Obama quietly opposed Question 1 through an elusive statement — he said he believes "strongly in stopping laws designed to take rights away" — he never uttered a word about the No On 1 campaign.
If marriage is to be fought for on a state-by-state basis, then our national gay-rights organizations should hold the DNC and President Obama responsible for their inaction in these fights. I still trust that these organizations have good intentions, are thinking strategically, and that their current praise of national Democrats is finite. But we should start pressuring Democrats to live up to their promises now, before they enter re-election mode and it's too late.
John Aravosis and Joe Sudbay (a Portland native) of AMERICAblog have launched a donor boycott of the DNC, Organizing for America, and the Obama campaign until Congress and the President pass the Employment Non-Discrimination Act and repeal Don't Ask, Don't Tell and the so-called Defense of Marriage Act, all of which was promised during campaign season, when the gay community gave plenty and worked hard to get Democratic candidates elected. Supporters of equality can read more about it and sign the pledge atwww.DontAskDontGive.com.

I need some leaves to make a sun painted cloth. The leaves will block out the photo paint, and make a lighter section on the cloth.
I cannot find any on the web, not sure what exactly to look for, I've tried them all I think.
I need some leaves to make a sun painted cloth. The leaves will block out the photo paint, and make a lighter section on the cloth.
I cannot find any on the web, not sure what exactly to look for, I've tried them all I think.
Try a dollar store....
I searched for 'leaf window clings' and lots came up. Amazon has them. I think $stores, craft stores etc. also carry them.
I tried everything but cling! Did not know they were called that. My kids were grown before they got popular.
Thanks so much.
You're so welcome!
If you can't find the right product would foliage from fake flowers do? Not sure if it is workable with what you are aiming for....or if colours would run.
The silk flowers do not lay flat enough to block out the sun/heat or whatever it is that works! I used one and it did not give good coverage, and it did bleed through. The window clings should lay flat and kind of hold with suction. I'm new to this and not at all sure what I am doing. I may not have had the paint thin enough, or maybe the fabric was too dry for the silk leaves to work.
You got me intrigued....I may have to try this (I live in one of the sunniest places on the planet). I was browsing and found the Dharma trading site
Looks like they used real leaves for the demo (they would be easier to manipulate than the silk ones). Anyway...let us see what you come up with
Yes, that is where I got my instructions and paint. After my trial that did not go well, I think that my paint was not watered down enough, and that things were not wet enough to 'stick' to the fabric. Suction and weight appears to be critical.
It was sunny, but windy and cool when I tried this, so I think that had an effect. I am getting together the goodies to use next time. I won't get this done before Christmas, but I will do this again next summer. When I have the blocks ready I intend to sew them together then make a quilted wall hanging. I'll make a decorative stitch between the blocks, then quilt around all or most of the items.
I'm looking forward to this, but this is not going to be the time.
I hope you do it and then post about it.
Hmmm, this doesn't look like a technique to try when a bit rushed. Humidity may well have a part to play, we are mainly hot, dry and windy, so might not be a project for high summer here. If I get around to doing it, will surely post any results.

Five TLC grants to aid teaching innovation
(Oct. 20, 2008)--The UTSA Teaching and Learning Center (TLC) is offering five opportunities for grants ranging from a few hundred dollars to a few thousand dollars. The grants are intended to encourage innovations in five key areas: Service Learning, Writing Across the Curriculum, Large Class Initiatives, the Scholarship of Teaching and Learning (SoTL) and Teaching Innovations.
TLC also needs faculty, administrative staff and teaching assistants to serve on the five selection committees.

"Money is hard-to-come-by these days," said Barbara Millis, director of the Teaching and Learning Center (TLC), "so faculty -- including non-tenure track, adjunct faculty and teaching assistants -- will be pleased to learn that the TLC is offering these opportunities for grant proposals. Additionally, those on the selection committees who review proposals will be able to develop their own grant-writing skills and gain insight into how committees rate proposal elements. Please contact me if you are interested in serving on a selection committee."
Descriptions of each grant including selection criteria will be available soon on the Teaching and Learn Center Web site. Most grant proposals are due either Nov. 5 or Nov. 20. Those receiving grants must present their findings at a poster session scheduled for Sept. 21, 2009.
Although information needed varies from grant to grant, those submitting proposals should focus on a description, the purpose of the proposal including intended outcomes, the potential impact on students and student learning, the relevance of the proposal to UTSA goals, a final product and a budget. The five selection committees also will review issues such as the sustainability of a project, its merit and how the project will be evaluated. Proposals also must discuss dissemination options, particularly publications and conference presentations.
"We tried to make the application process as quick and painless as possible," said Millis. "The deadlines are very tight this year because of the start-up logistics. We apologize for that, and thank Ken Jones, a can-do Ph.D student in information systems in the College of Business, and Shashi Pinheiro, associate director of Web and multimedia services, for their hard work in helping to establish this process and get the information online."

I have come across Clonezilla and FOG.
I've yet to try out FOG, but Clonezilla is ridiculously unstable and doesn't seem to work properly.
Anyone have suggestions?
I'm going to try out FOG later today too, but figured I'd ask around to see what all everyone had to offer.

Pay It Forward – New Freebie & Contest!
Today, I've very excited to share a special project we've been scheming up that's very near and dear to my heart. We're calling it a Pay It Forward Freebie, and it's all about using your craft to do a little good for our local animals in need.
Let's get to the embroidery goodness first… this project comes with a shiny new freebie (through 8/28/11), all about supporting rescue animals.
This design is available for free from now through Aug. 28, 2011. Now, I know giving you free designs is nothing new, but we hope with this one, us giving something free to you will inspire you to give to someone else.
Specifically, little furred, striped, spotted or scaled someone elses. Because they could really use a little help.
Before I explain the full contest, let me explain a little of the back story.
This idea was inspired by a lot of things, but the one that certainly inspired me the most is that little wet furball pictured up there. That was my little dog Keefer, and he passed away two years ago. Keefer was a lot of things. He was a neurotic dog, a food-lover, a hater of bubbles (long story), a snorer, a crazy furball and a totally lovable fuzzbutt. He was also a rescue.
Since he's passed, I have not yet found the space in my life for another dog, but I still love the idea of getting involved with local animals, and seeing what I can do to help find them happy homes until the day I can take one home myself.
So, that's what I figure I would try and do. Armed with our new rescue design, I stitched up a couple of cute little bandanas…
…grabbed my camera, and headed to my local shelter.
I know some of you who saw my sneak peek on facebook last week, and in your comments, were trying to guess what this project was about. I had to laugh when a couple of people asked if I was giving away the dog. You want him? Ladies and gents, this adorable little dog can be all yours.
Meet Sport.
He is a total and utter clown, and was seriously a joy to photograph.
I mean, really, that tongue? Too cute.
Sport is a 10-month-old hound mix puppy, and he's currently available to take home and smile like that at you all the time.
By the way, you can click on any dog's name or photo to go to their profile page on the Humane Society's website for more information about adopting. These are all local Minnesota dogs, so you'd probably want to at least be near our area if you want to come visit.
Sport looked extra jaunty in his little embroidered rescue bandanna, and he knew it too.
However, not all dogs were so sure of their camera ready faces at first. This little sweetheart is Emmy, and she's a little shy.
I assured her she was a totally gorgeous dog, and she warmed up a bit.
Emmy is a 3 year old Husky Cattle Dog Mix, and she just had puppies, so like anyone she's feeling a little self conscious about her figure. But she was one of the cuddliest and most gentle dogs I saw.
She really is gorgeous, isn't she? I have such a soft spot for Husky type dogs, and she really stole my heart. It was hard to get a photo of her sometimes because she kept coming up for a cuddle.
Speaking of cuddly, that little one you saw up top is Lydia, a three month old Hound Boxer mix.
Lydia was a quiet but happy puppy, who was perfectly content to sit in someones arms and just be cuddled. She has a darling little face and I can just tell she's going to grow up to be a beauty.
This little gal sitting so patiently for her bandana is Lady. Lady is a very very shy little dog, but a very very sweet one. Lady is looking for a very quiet, low stress home, but seriously, she has the best puppy eyes I've ever seen.
I mean seriously, how could you say no to those eyes?
Though she looks a little grey, Lady is just a three year old terrier mix. Hey, we all know getting a little grey doesn't mean anything. She's just more cultured. She's also a very well behaved dog, but will need a little extra love to come out of her shell.
Shyness is totally not an issue with this dog. This big black ball of joy is Pete, and he has a truly excellent smile.
See? Isn't that a great smile?
Pete is a very energetic three year old Lab Retriever mix, and while he was quite bounding and playful most of the time, he was also quite happy to settle down and sit still for photos as long as someone was scratching his ears.
Pete would probably love a home where his ears get scratched all the time. C'mon, look at those ears. I promise they're as fuzzy and soft as they look! Pete also was a big fan of trying to lick my camera. Maybe he just liked the way he looked in the lens.
OK, so I know a lot of you aren't local, or maybe just not quite ready to be able to take care of a new addition to the family, whether it be dog, cat or bunny. Or maybe you already have a rescue animal in your home that you love and adore. You don't need to take home a furball to help them out. You can help out local animals anywhere you are.
Here's where the neat contest part comes in!
From now until Aug 28, (the same time the freebie is available) download this design in machine embroidery and/or hand embroidery formats, and use it to do some good in your local rescue community! Then all you need to do is submit a photo of how you used the design to show a little puppy love (or kitty, bunny, rat, or whatever) and you'll automatically be entered to win a $50 gift certificate from Urban Threads!
Not sure what kinds of things you can do? Here are a couple of ideas!
- Have your own rescue animal? Make 'em a toy, a bandanna, or even a hoodie with the design, and show that you're supporting your own rescue animal with a little love!
- Stitch or print it on a tee to show your support for rescue animals.
- Stitch it on some goods and sell them to raise money for your local shelter!
- Make some goods for your local shelter volunteers to show you appreciate their work. Shirts, buttons, bandanas, hats…
- Make a care package of goods that shelters are always in need of… leashes, toys, blankets, food, add the design to them or print it on a tag and donate your gift package to a grateful local organization.
- Donate your skills! Do what I did and make some cute bandannas, go take pretty photos of your local adoptable animals, and give the photos to the shelter. Maybe those cute photos will help find someone a home!
- Make some goods for your shelter that they can sell at their own fundraising events. Shirts, keychains, anything! If you're extra crafty with a machine you can probably even personalize it with the organization's name.
- Those are just a few of the many things you can do with the design! Just remember though, the one thing you may not do is actually sell or trade the digital file. If someone wants to download it, please point them here!
Once you've done your good deed, just upload your photo to the UrbanThreads flickr pool and tag it rescue, or e-mail it in to firstname.lastname@example.com. A winner will be chosen at random from all the people who have submitted photos. Together, we'll all get a personal reward for our good deeds, and one lucky crafter will get a big $50 gift certificate reward for their good deeds. Everybody wins!
So get crafting for a good cause, Urban Threadsters — your deadline to enter is Aug 28. Together we can do a little good in the world!
