Lisa Hanawalt enjoys exploring the strange ins and outs of her world using words and illustrations. Her penchant for drawing anthropomorphized animals to represent characters, including herself, reveals a childlike playfulness, even while exploring adult themes.
Her illustrations and writing have appeared in numerous print and online publications including McSweeney's, Vanity Fair and the New York Times. In 2010, she earned the Ignatz Award for Outstanding Comic for her work on her first comic series, I Want You.
Her work can also be seen on Netflix's Bojack Horseman, where Hanawalt serves as production designer and producer. She can also be heard on the Maximum Fun podcast, Baby Geniuses, which she co-hosts with Emily Heller.
Lisa Hanawalt sat down with Jesse to talk about her work on BoJack Horseman, her latest book of stories and illustrations and her fascination with Martha Stewart's horse.
Lisa Hanawalt's latest book is Hot Dog Taste Test
Wyatt Cenac is a stand-up comedian and writer who is best known as a former correspondent for The Daily Show with Jon Stewart. On the program, Cenac's segments often explored issues of politics and society from a black perspective and with a sharp satirical bite.
Cenac served as a writer and voice actor on King of the Hill as well as making appearances on other television shows including Inside Amy Schumer, BoJack Horseman and Maron.
Wyatt Cenac joined Jesse to talk about his new stand-up show, Night Train and the importance of providing a space for alternative voices in comedy.
Night Train is available now on Seeso.com.
Jesse talk about the mystique and the power of baseball's knuckleball.
Sometimes, folks go above and beyond what is asked of them. Listener Jamie McCormick, in addition to submitting her theories as to when the first Dracula spoke the first "Bleh!", also generously provided a list of more recent cultural references to that odd vampire parody sound. This was a tremendously kind gesture given that it will (probably) have no impact on whether she wins the coveted prize.
McCormick noted that "Bleh!" was chanted repeatedly by a vampire character in the "Pink Plasma" episode of "The Pink Panther" (episode 78, from 1975); spouted by Count Drakeula in the "Ducky Horror Picture Show" episode of Duck Tales (episode 32 from 1988); and uttered nearly continuously by Count Blah, a friend of Greg the Bunny.
I've included all of them here to bring some animated levity to your otherwise-predictably-gory Halloween viewing.
"Blehs!" start around 3:16.
First "bleh!" around 4:17.
Editor's note: Language NSFW, despite featuring a bunny.
On a related cartoon note, Anna Brawley wrote in to say that she thought there was an old Bugs Bunny short with the same plot as "Pink Plasma" that was made in the 1940s; but I think she is referring to "Transylvania 6-5000" which does feature Bugs getting chased by Dracula, but which was actually made in 1963. It isn't the winner, and it isn't big on "bleh!", but you should absolutely watch it anyway. It's truly a classic.
Our pal Andrew W.K. voices his animated alter ego in this imaginary meeting with toddler superhero Bob the Builder.
If you are looking for a way to infuse your holiday weekend with surreal images of a fuschia-toned prince named Gumball who serenades you (and your xylophone-playing cat) with the voice of Neil Patrick Harris, then I have got what you need:
That's a clip from this weekend's episode of "Adventure Time" (Sept. 5 at 8/7c on Cartoon Network).
I think everything's going to be okay now.
An enthusiastic fan has put together this awesome clip montage of Andy Daly on The Life & Times of Tim. Andy is one of the funniest people in the world, and Tim is an under-appreciated show. Enjoy!

"Move This to the Top of Your Queue" is our new feature that tells you about wonderful shows or movies that have just appeared on (or will soon disappear from) your favorite online streaming services.
Where to find it: Netflix streaming added all 52 episodes last month; there are five episodes from Season 3 on Hulu; and a set of 15 episodes are available for free at Adult Swim.
Ah, summer. When kids are free. Released from the constraints of school, they finally have the time to be ignored by their parents and abused by their soccer coach all day long. If they get lucky, however, there are also days when they can hang with their friends, let loose their imaginations, and, perhaps, create a series of short but alarmingly sophisticated cinematic dramas that comment (albeit somewhat obliquely) on their most challenging life experiences.
The 1999-2004 classic Home Movies follows eight-year-old aspiring filmmaker Brendan Small (voiced by . . . Brendan Small) and his friends Melissa (Melissa Bardin Galsky) and Jason (H. Jon Benjamin) as they take the challenges of being a kid and channel them into short but ambitious films. Typical episodes revolve around whatever movie idea Brendan has cooked up that week. And we're not talking about the type simple movies you'd expect from children this age. Plots range from a rock opera about Franz Kafka to sci-fi epics about spacemen fighting the super villain team of evil George Washington, Picasso and Annie Oakley. Frequently, these films mirror the children's more stressful "real life" experiences - and these kids are going through quite a bit; but one of the show's greatest comedic pleasures is watching how the children face those challenges with a level of maturity that far exceeds that of the adults who purportedly care for them.
Brendan lives with his recently divorced mom, Paula (initially Paula Poundstone, then Janine Ditullo), with whom he has a relationship that skews closer to friends than mother and son. And then there's Coach McGuirk (H. Jon Benjamin again): an overweight, often drunk, galoot of a man who attempts to coach Brendan and Melissa's soccer team while giving them outrageously terrible advice.
I love the show, but haven't seen enough of it to consider myself a connoisseur. So I've brought in our resident Home Movies expert, Dan Sai, to help show us around the series.After the jump, you can find his top five reasons why you should set aside part of your sunny summer for Home Movies. (And yes, it includes loads of delicious clips!)
It's always nice to hear from listeners about the work they do while they listen to our shows. Michael Rianda left a comment on one of our donor videos that he spent all of last year working on this short film (his third year project in animation school at CalArts) and listening to JJGo.
The film is really lovely, charming, funny and a little inspiring. Thanks, Michael!
After a great pledge drive, I thought I'd share this bit of content with everyone - until now, it was only available on our DVD. These are the animated cutscenes from Jordan, Jesse, Game!, written and directed by Dan Henrick with special guests Andy Daly and John Hodgman.
This short film, which is very NSFW, was the genesis of HBO's "The Life and Times of Tim."

A sophisticated Robert Abbey table lamp uniting a deep patina bronze finish with a striking double shade.More Details >
Featuring an eye-catching double shade design, the Saturnia table lamp from Robert Abbey offers a refined contemporary style that will seamlessly integrate with modern decors. A deep patina bronze finish meshes with a transparent elna bronze fabric outer shade which surrounds an ascot white inner shade. Update your home with this impressive Robert Abbey lighting design.
Customers most agreed on the following attributes:
I purchased this Robert Abbey lamp specifically to place atop a tall dresser. Its my own lack of decorating experience but I found the lamp to be a little too tall for this application. The shade doesn't shade enough light as I wanted even with a 25 watt bulb. It's a great piece for a living area however. The design fits in almost anywhere.

The stock of Tami flu drug for treatment of swine flu has expired and authorities are yet to procure the fresh stock. The delivery of new stock of Tami flu (75 mg) used to treat adult swine flu patients is still uncertain.
According to health department officials, the incidence of swine flu has reduced in Madhya Pradesh because of which union ministry has refused to supply Tami flu. Acting on the decision, the state health department has written to all the districts to procure Tami flu medicine as their own level.
"We are planning to get the stock of Tami flu drugs from Indore. Probably the new stock will reach soon but in case of urgency Tami flu 30 mg and 45 mg will be provided to the patient. Combination of these two tablets will work same as 75 mg tablet," he said. "The only difference would be the patient has to take two tablets twice a day," said chief medical and health officer (CMHO), Bhopal Dr Pankaj Shukla.
According to sources, the health department has asked CMHOs to purchase Tami flu drugs by floating tenders by their own but the CMHOs were facing trouble as there is only one pharmaceutical company in the state which supplies Tami flu.

You can't spike coffee or tea or water the same way you can spike something shaken, not stirred.' He laughs. 'James Bond is a great character, but a secret agent who's recognised by every hotel maître d' in the world? Where's the secret bit?'
Barrington – real name Peter Smith – should know. The author was a military pilot before a detached retina put him out of action; faced with leaving the services altogether, he moved into air traffic control and wound up on navy ships that engaged in espionage missions. Barrington tells Time Out that the hero of his novels, Paul Richter, is based 'not on me, but on a guy I knew in the services who would often go off and work with the SAS – on secondment, if you like.' Richter's latest mission in new book Payback takes him to Dubai, where he uncovers a planned terrorist attack on the city. Considering Barrington's real-life knowledge of these things, should we be worried?
The author won't be drawn on how susceptible Dubai is to an attack – 'I can't give you a definitive answer to that,' he insists – but the seemingly fantastical, conspiracy-riddled plots of his thrillers aren't so far from the truth. Though bound by the Official Secrets Act not to reveal anything classified about his own missions, Barrington can at least base his stories in what he knows to be fact.
Barrington's hero spends many a book unravelling some sort of terrorist cell's plans to launch an attack with a secret nuclear arsenal, and the chances of that happening are also perhaps not as unlikely as we'd like to believe. 'There was a case when a Russian national security adviser, Alexander Lebed, admitted that Russia had built something like 250 nuclear weapons and had no idea where 83 of them were,' Barrington points out (Lebed in fact claimed that more than 100 weapons were unaccounted for during an interview on TV show 60 Minutes in 1997). And according to Barrington, there are real-life Bond villains. 'There are rogue scientists around the world who have been known to take part in designing nuclear weapons provided they're paid enough,' he says. 'There's an Indian scientist who's notorious for that.'
It's probably the thinly veiled fact behind the fiction that keeps people reading the espionage genre, which has enjoyed consistent popularity from early secret agents like The Scarlet Pimpernel, through James Bond to the modern-day likes of Jason Bourne. And it's true that in the wake of 9/11, fiction around the politics of the world abroad – in books and film – has enjoyed a huge surge in popularity. 'The more uncertain a world we live in, the more popular this kind of thing is,' Barrington agrees.
Still, it seems the dose of fiction is larger than that of fact in these stories. 'Espionage work can actually be incredibly dull,' says Barrington. 'The planning part is exciting, and then nothing happens for four-and-a-half hours. It's short bursts of excitement, followed by long periods of waiting around for something to happen.'
Payback is published by Pan Books.

Anyone using UltraEdit macros (or others) to manipulate Eudora? I just wrote one to prep huge attachment files for real estate agents (deleting useless or confidential fields). I now suspect that it's possible to entirely automate the process. This thread came to mind.

The Methodist Hospital, Houston, TX
The incidence of venous thromboembolisms (VTE) remains high after lung transplant (LT) . The purpose of this study was to identify the incidence and potential risk factors of VTE in LT patients at a single center.
A retrospective analysis was conducted on 52 recipients between January and December 2008. Post-operative VTEs were identified based upon radiographic scans, venous doppler reports, and lung biopsies during the transplant admission. The following risk factors were assessed: pre-transplant diagnosis, functional status, cardiopulmonary bypass use, intraoperative or perioperative factor VII administration,post operative Extra Corporeal membrane Oxygenator (ECMO), use of deep vein thrombosis (DVT) prophylaxis, body mass index, and type of transplant(single vs double).
Patients were primarily male (71%) and Caucasian (56%) with a mean age of 56.3 ± 11.4 years. The most common pre transplant diagnoses were pulmonary fibrosis (PF) (46%) and chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (29%). The overall incidence of patients developing a VTE was 19.2% (n = 10). Four patients had a DVT alone (2 upper extremity/body), 3 patients had both a DVT and a pulmonary embolism (PE), and 3 patients had a PE alone. Of the 3 patients who had PE alone their postoperative course was complicated by lobar torsion, pulmonary venous anastamotic stenosis and Primary Graft Dysfunction requiring ECMO support.Patients with upper extremity/body DVT were associated with jugular triple lumen catheters or peripherally inserted central catheter placement. Mean time to development of a DVT was 7.7 ± 4.4 days. Of the variables assessed only pre-transplant diagnosis of PF was independently associated with VTE (p = 0.0164) while lack of DVT prophylaxis did not reach significance.
The incidence of VTE (19.2%)is high in LT population. Pre-transplant diagnosis of PF was identified as a risk factor for VTE. A larger sample size may be needed to validate these and other findings.
Patients with PF are at high risk for VTE. Surveillance for DVT prophylaxis,early ambulation and avoidance of procoagulant clotting factors like factor VII may prevent VTE.

Wormwood Scrubs had introduced fundamental changes in a difficult and stressful environment and, in many ways, was coping better than other similar prisons in the capital, it says.
Yet, despite the praise, the report by the Chief Inspector Of Prisons, Anne Owers, revealed inmates were spending much more time in their cells while too few were engaged in meaningful work or education.
Just two years after the jail was condemned for "sliding backwards" on key areas of progress Ms Owers, in a report which listed 137 recommendationssays: "It is gratifyingto report we found a greatly improved prison.
"It was providing a consistent if inadequate regime, dedicated firstnight support which needed to be supported by stronger suicide and self-harm procedures and an innovative and outward-looking resettlement unit and structure.
She also praises a " generally relaxed and respectful" atmosphere.

Indians of Nebraska
The name Nebraska comes from an Oto Indian word meaning "flat water".
Tribes and Bands of Nebraska
The following list of American Indians who have lived in Nebraska has been compiled from Hodge's Handbook of American Indians...[1] and from Swanton's The Indian Tribes of North America[2]. Some may simply be variant spellings for the same tribe.
Many of these tribes or bands lived in or had only minimal association with the area now known as Nebraska. Some of them are only mentioned in treaties as parties to the cession of land in Iowa to the federal government.
Arapaho, Arikara, Cheyenne, Comanche, Dakota, Flandreau, Sioux, Fox, Iowa, Kansa or Kaw, Kansas, Kiowa, Oneida, Missouri, Omaha, Oto, Pawnee, Ponca, Santee-Sioux, Sac (also spelled Sauk), Sioux, Stockbridge-Munsee, Tonkawa, Winnebago
Many of the reservations in Washington are small, with one agency of the Bureau of Indian Affairs having responsibilities for the tribes residing on several reservations. Most of the records kept by the federal government about the tribes will be found in the appropriate agency.
From the mid-1800s, the official policy of the United States government toward the American Indian was to confine each tribe to a specific parcel of land called a reservation. Agencies were established on or near each reservation. A government representative, usually called an agent (or superintendent) was assigned to each agency. Their duties included maintaining the peace, making payments to the Native Americans based on the stipulations of the treaties with each tribe, and providing a means of communication between the native population and the federal government.
Sometimes, a single agency had jurisdiction over more than one reservation. And sometimes, if the tribal population and land area required it, an agency may have included sub-agencies.
The boundaries of reservations, over time, have changed. Usually, that means the reservations have been reduced in size. Sometimes, especially during the later policy of "termination," the official status of reservations was ended altogether.
The following list of reservations has been compiled from the National Atlas of the United States of America[3], the Omni Gazetteer of the United States of America[4], and other sources. Those reservations named in bold are current federally-recognized reservations, with their associated agency and tribe(s). Others have historically been associated with the state or are not currently recognized by the federal government.
- Iowa Reservation:
- Omaha Reservation: Federal, under jurisdiction of Winnebago Agency, Tribe: Omaha
- Ponca Reservation:
- Sac and Fox Reservation:
- Santee Sioux Reservation: Federal, under jurisdiction of Winnebago Agency, Tribe: Santee Sioux
- Winnebago Reservation: is a federal reservation, under the jurisdiction of the Winnebago Agency. The primary tribe is the Winnebago. The reservation is mostly located in Thurston County, Nebraska, with a small segment in Woodbury County, Iowa, just east of the Missouri River.
Agencies of the Bureau of Indian Affairs
Agencies were created as an administrative division of the federal government to manage Indian affairs with the tribes, to enforce policies, and to assist in maintaining the peace. The names and location of these agencies may have changed, but their purpose remained basically the same. Many of the records of genealogical value were created by these offices.
- Council Bluffs Agency
- Flandreau Agency
- Great Nemaha Agency
- Omaha Agency 1856-1876
- Otoe Agency
- Pawnee Agency
- Ponca Agency
- Red Cloud Agency 1873-77
- Rosebud Agency -- actually located in South Dakota, but marginally associated with Nebraska
- Santee Agency
- Santee Sioux Agency
- Spotted Tail Agency -- actually located in South Dakota, but marginally associated with Nebraska
- Upper Missouri Agency
- Upper Platte Agency
- Winnebago Agency, Winnebago, NE 68071
- Yankton Agency

Indian Schools
The Office of Indian Affairs (now the Bureau of Indian Affairs) established a network of schools throughout the United States, beginning with Carlisle Indian School, established in 1879. Some of these schools were day schools, usually focusing on Indian children of a single tribe or reservation. Some were boarding schools which served Indian children from a number of tribes and reservations.
In addition, other groups such as various church denominations established schools specifically focusing on American Indian children. (read more...)
- Genoa School
- Grant Institute
- Omaha School
- Santee School
Half-Breed Tract
In the early 1800s, a tract of land was set aside by the federal government in Nebraska for the descendants of French fur trappers and other Europeans who had inter-married with Native Americans. These individuals were called "half-breeds." Thus the tract of land came to be known as the "Half-Breed Tract." Similar tracts were established in Iowa, Minnesota, and Wisconsin.
Another similar tract was reserved in Nemaha County for "half-breeds" of the Oto, Omaha, and Iowa Tribes and for the Yankton and Santee Bands of the Sioux Tribe. The tract was on land belonging to the Otoes and the other tribes paid them for the right to give their descendants land there.
Records of the Indian Tribes of Nebraska may be found in the National Archives or in the Regional Archives of the National Archives and Records Administration (NARA) in Kansas City, Missouri.

Our Lady, today, asked 4 questions and gave 5 advisory statements, totaling the significant number of 9. What do you think about this message? How much do you believe in this message? Is it even that important to act upon? What are the consequences in your life if you do not? This and many more things were discussed in last night's Radio Wave show.
Our Lady Queen of Peace of Medjugorje's March 18, 2009
Annual Apparition to Mirjana Soldo
Our Lady looked at all those present and added:
The preparation in prayer began for Mirjana's annual March 18th 2009 apparition at about 12:30 pm. Pilgrims began gathering at the Blue Cross in anticipation for the apparition at about 9:00 am. The rosary was being prayed along with other prayers and singing in many different languages as pilgrims packed in around the Blue Cross.
At about 12:30 the rosary began for the formal preparation for Our Lady's apparition along with singing in between each decade. The joyful and glorious mysteries were prayed.
Mirjana came and knelt before the Blue Cross for the final rosary about 15-20 minutes before Our Lady appeared.
Our Lady appeared to Mirjana at 1:53 pm. The apparition lasted about four and a half minutes ending at 1:58pm.
During the apparition Mirjana nodded and shook her head several times. She also smiled and at times was very serious throughout her conversation with Our Lady. After the apparition Mirjana sat back and began crying silently. She then began to convey Our Lady's message and what She did in the apparition so that it could be translated into all the different languages.
When Our Lady appeared She prayed over everyone present and blessed everyone along with all the religious articles to be blessed.

Prayer for Nonbelievers
Come Mary,
Come tomorrow again and again.
We will pray with You.
Bring back our loved ones
Who have left the Church,
Those who have left God.
We will join You on the second of each month.
We will pray for greater graces
To be attached to Your intention.
We will pray that the dam of love,
Of God's mercy, will break forth,
That Your new prayer be released soon.
We will pray that it will flow out
As a river to all the nations,
That as the rivers fill the oceans,
Your love of God will fill the earth.
We wait.
We anticipate that great day,
And we call You as You have called us,
To add our prayers, fasting, and sacrifices
To Mirjana's in order that You may
Obtain all Your wishes for the world.
O loving Mother,
Thank You for the gift
That the world is on the brink of receiving!

Nestle India announced a voluntary recall of the noodles on June 5, the same day national food regulator Food Safety and Standards Authority of India (FSSAI) banned its sale alleging excessive levels of lead in it and mislabeling on the pack. The recall, the country"s biggest and which grabbed international headlines, almost wiped out the entire instant noodles category and dented the sales of all packaged snacks, as wary consumers avoided them.
In August, the Bombay High Court lifted the ban, but asked the company to get the samples tested before it starts selling the product.
FSSAI officials could not be contacted for comment.
"This speaks volumes about the regulatory apparatus of the country, and even its antibusiness stance in this case," social commentator Santosh Desai said. "It"s about a global foods giant with well-established credentials being targeted."
The return of Maggi comes at a time when the Indian company"s Swiss parent, Nestle SA, announced a reduction in its full-year sales forecast, citing recall of Maggi, which rakes in Rs 2,000 crore annually for the Indian unit. The world"s largest food company cut its forecast for organic sales growth to 4.5% this year from the previous estimate of 5%.
In a news release, Nestle India said in compliaare also tested and cleared by the designated three laboratories.

Introducing Mark Daniel Harley
An Interview with CPW's Digital Lab Manager
CPW welcomed Mark Daniel Harley as the new Digital Lab Manager in November 2013. We sat down with Mark to learn about his background, photographic interests, and what he is most excited for in the Digital Kitchen!
Tell us about your background… What brought you to Woodstock?
Mark Daniel Harley: I am a native of Richmond, Virginia, but my father's side of the family has a rich history in Buffalo, New York. It was while I was researching this family history for my (BFA) thesis work that I made the trip to Buffalo to photograph the town my father grew up in. I took this trip at a time I could also interview for CPW's summer Workshop Internship Program. My professor and mentor, Brian Ulrich, who taught a workshop at CPW in 2012, spoke very highly of CPW. I immediately hit it off with the staff, and was fortunate enough to be chosen to spend my first post-college summer as an intern here. The summer flew by, and I wasn't quite ready to leave my newly formed community.
What got you into photography? Where did you study?
MDH: Growing up, my mother was always an omni-present photographer. It was a vital part of my childhood and certainly emphasized, at a young age, the importance of a photograph. I grew up painting and drawing, but following my first basic photography class in high school, I was hooked. I went on to spend two years studying the medium at the Corcoran College of Art + Design in Washington, D.C., before completing my undergraduate photographic education at Virginia Commonwealth University's School of the Arts in Richmond, Virginia in 2013.
What inspired you to apply to be CPW's Digital Lab Manager?
MDH: Towards the end of my internship here at CPW, I began assisting our artists-in-residence, Maria Buyondo and Danielle Scruggs in scanning and printing their work. I really enjoyed being able to witness their creative processes first hand, as well as assist them in reaching both technical and conceptual solutions in their work. I realized then that with my internship nearly over, I still had much to learn from and give to the artists coming to CPW. I applied and was lucky enough to have been chosen to join this very small, very unique staff and subsequently extend my upstate New York adventure.
What will you be doing as the Digital Lab Manager?
MDH: As CPW's Digital Lab Manager, I will be assisting our artists-in-residence, workshop instructors and students, as well as members of the community in printing, scanning, and overall digital workflow. For artists-in-residence I will serve as CPW's master printer, ensuring that each artist can produce their work exactly as they envision it with the Digital Kitchen equipment. I will also be insuring that the lab is ready to go for the 2014 Woodstock Photography Workshop season. A great thing about the Digital Kitchen is that it is open to anyone in the community, by appointment, to use our facilities to produce their own work. I will also be available to assist these users from the most basic image-editing techniques, to advanced printing, and everything in between.
What excited you most about becoming CPW's Digital Lab Manager?
MDH: As a second year student, I managed the digital lab at the Corcoran Collage of Art + Design in Washington D.C. I always enjoyed being surrounded by work in progress, as well as encouraging and facilitating fellow artists and photographers to experiment with new media. I'm excited to be working in a similar environment, assisting artists-in-residence, workshop students, and general users in engaging with the various technologies and helping to produce their work.
Is there any specific tech or features of the Digital Kitchen that you are particularly looking forward to introducing users to?
MDH: I love photobooks, especially self-published ones. So, I am most excited about all of the Canon printers, including the two large-format ones. CPW also just made the transition to Adobe's Creative Cloud, which means the Digital Kitchen now has Adobe Premier. So I'm excited to have the capability to host video-based artists and workshops.
Any big changes you see making in the Digital Kitchen?
MDH: We have new iMacs coming in February, which will give us a good boost in processing power to run all of the applications in Adobe's Creative Cloud. Right now the major change I am looking forward to is welcoming more people to use this great facility!
Want to meet Mark or schedule time with him in the Digital Kitchen? His regular hours are Monday, Wednesday, and Friday, 11am-6pm.

We're told the store has been closed for about a year. Code enforcement officer Scott Pierz says the building was foreclosed on and it's unclear who owns the building right now.TV5 News tried contacting the former owners, but our calls were not returned. Piers says he's alerted the town's attorney to see what they can do. "Everybody's concerned about liability, but the town needs to take action and we're prepared to do that very quickly and with firm resolve so we need to examine more of the statute to see who has the authority whether it's the code enforcement officer or the health officer: we need to quadron off that property." Pierz says.Town officials hope to quarantine off the area sometime in the next 24 to 48 hours.

Mean Streets
James woke up from a year-long coma to a dark hospital room filled with long-stemmed roses and goodbye cards. He wondered for a second if life support had been cut off, but he knew it became illegal without consent in the state of Illinois long before he crashed his green Ford Focus a year ago.
He sprang to his feet from the bed, and his worries lagged behind his will. "Yo, I'm awake," he shouted down the hall.
Morning daylight from a cloudy sky flooded in the blue, darkened halls of the inpatient facilities. He looked at the outside of the door to his own room--there was an elegant wooden cross nailed on with his last name.
He searched for anyone who could offer a viable explanation, along with those for the other crosses on other rooms. He wasn't dead, but nobody was there to know, not even at the front desk.
He would have read the goodbye cards—in fact, he was telling himself to go back and do that, but he kept walking to the elevator. The buttons were torn out, so he took the stairs.
It was a long way up, and it made James dizzy to gaze down between the railings. The drafts of quiet air blew into his underwear, easily visible from his patterned gown. The air grew louder and stronger as he slowly descended the stairs in his socks. Then it was warm, and it dampened his gown. It went down the shaft, then up the shaft, down, up, down, up.
As he reached the final two flights of stairs, he stepped his toes a smidgen too far into a crack on one of the stairs. He heard a scratching of metal on metal somewhere high in the stairwel.
Then the section of stairs he was on flipped. James had no idea why it flipped, but it was hard to wonder why as his head bounced off the metal surfaces like a dodgeball. The other steps were just as aggressive on the way down as the air became a gust.
When he landed face-first on the floor, the railing broke off and bended like a creaking metal snake. As he tried to get up it delivered a powerful blow to his lower back, and all James could do was crawl out the door, which also broke off and fell on his head.
He was in the lobby, and the streetlights of downtown Chicago outside turned to look at him through the glass of the front doors like curious, bending metal children. The bricks shifted in the walls and dragged along the floor. The windows broke themselves, and the shards of glass flew farther than physics would normally dictate. In all of this, James was the only person he could see, indoors or out.
He stood up and hid behind the information desk. A Chicago Tribune on the shelf had a large, screaming headline: "EVACUATE NOW."
He didn't have time to read the rest, as all the newspapers in the lobby flew up to his face and tried to force themselves into his mouth and windpipe.

Heyyy-a. It's that time of the month again where it's somehow over and we're all supposed to continue onto September without acting like we're hurling at 2014 faster than Miley Cyrus can gyrate her 3 centimeter-wide pelvis. Here we go.
It's almost fall and I'm SO excited for cooler temps, but before we get into all-things apple and pumpkin and crisp let's take a look at what we cooked up on Minimalist Baker in August.
What We Made // Recipes
What We Made //Resources
NEWS FLASH: We have a blogger resources page full of tutorials on helping food bloggers – pro, amateur and aspiring – to blog better, or as I like to say, "blog like a boss." This month we added a few new helpful resources, one of which being How to Hide Text Behind an Image in Photoshop, like in the image above. Check out the short video and then start mastering this skill today. So easy.
What We Did
This month was more quiet for us travel-wise, but we did still manage to:
- Start brewing our own kombucha! More details to come soon.
- Re-organize our pantry using mason jars.
- Get featured in the Wichita Eagle for being bums in a local park. Go us.
What We're Craving
Lastly, the flavor we're most looking forward to experimenting with in September: Eggplant. I know, it's no fudge, but eggplant is abundant in September and full of good-for-you vitamins and nutrients like fiber, manganese and antioxidants, just to name a few. Check out more details on this naughty nightshade vegetable here.
That does it. See ya back Monday for a new recipe!

Despite how some consumers feel about Apple products, few will argue that Apple has some of the most desirable products and best product marketing on the planet. Apple has dominated the mobile music player market and is now conquering the smartphone market with its iPhone.
To go along with the iPhone, Apple launched its App Store last year that provided third-party applications for the handset ranging from video games to productivity apps. The App Store was a raging success from the start with over $30 million in sales during its first full month of operation.
This week Apple announced that the billionth download had been made from the App Store. A contest was running as the countdown to one billion downloads ran and the contest is now over. The one-billionth download was made yesterday by an unnamed user. Apple says that it will announce who made the billionth download soon.
The person who made the record setting download stands to get a serious gift package including $10,000 in iTunes credit, a 17-inch MacBook Pro, a 32GB iPod touch and a Time Capsule backup system. Apple says that in all it will give away $13,000 in prizes for the contest. All App downloader's were automatically entered into the contest.
Apple's App Store is so popular and has generated so much revenue that most all smartphone makers are now readying their own versions of the App Store, each trying to be slightly different from the Apple offering.
Information Week reports that the Google App store will be more open, the RIM store for the Blackberry will be more enterprise focused, the Ovi store from Nokia will be geared towards social networking and location-based services, and the Windows Marketplace from Microsoft will allow users to be billed by their carriers and offer a refund period.

OceansPoint in Papaikou is just north of Hilo and is near a variety of natural sites to include Rainbow Falls, Akaka Falls, Volcano National Park, Botanical Garden, Mauna Kea Observatory, Naha Stone, Historic Dowtown Hilo, Surfing, Miles of Hiking, Waipio Valley, etc... In December through February of each year, humpback whales swim in the Hilo Bay and Hamakua Coast area. Papaikou is situated right in the middle so we see a lot of whales and their calves swimming right off the property during these months.
The island of Hawaii is also known as the Big Island. It's the largest of the 7 major Hawaiian islands. It is one of only a few places on earth, where one can experience climates ranging from desert to tropical to snow in the same day.
The Big Island is mainly rural. The East side of the island (Papaikou and Hilo) is tropical while the West side of the island (Kona) is quite dry. That is where the Ironman is held each year. For outdoor enthusiasts, within ten miles of OceansPoint, there is cycling, swimming, fishing, hiking, jogging, volcanic caves, surfing, ziplining, and many other hosted activities as well.

While the opposition smelled foul as key documents related to the Adarsh and several other scams were kept in the secretariat, the Crime Branch has already begun its probe into the matter.
"We want an impartial probe from possibly fire experts from abroad. We don't think the CBI or Crime Branch will conduct an impartial probe. We want an impartial probe by international experts," said Eknath Khadse, Leader of the Opposition, Maharashtra in an interview with CNN-IBN.
The Maharashtra government, however, confirmed that most of the critical files were lost in the fire. Talking about the Adarsh files, the CBI said that they had the relevant copies of the document.
"I am confident that all the important files will be safe and intact," said State Forest Minister Patang Rao.
The fire was first reported from the office of forest Minister and NCP leader, Babanrao Pachpute at 3 pm. It later gutted the 4th, 5th and 6th floor of the Mantralaya.
At least 5000 people were reported to be present in the building when the incident took place.
Choppers from INS Shikara were pressed into action to rescue trapped people.
The office of Maharashtra Chief Minister Prithviraj Chavan was also gutted in the fire. He was, however, not present in the office when the incident took place.

They look too young to be down-and-outs. Women and men, some hardly 40, though their faces are already craggy and weather-beaten. But the same faces are there every day, huddled in an alcoholic haze to shield them from the Arctic winds. Sometimes they go down to Nuuk harbour for a change of scenery; the unluckier ones weave their way to to the new Aids treatment centre at the general hospital.
Everyone in Nuuk calls Queen Ingrid's the sanatorium, a relic of the days when tuberculosis was the big killer in Greenland. Today, the letters which instil fear in this polar outpost of the kingdom of Denmark are not TB, but HIV.
New findings based on four years of research into the disease in Greenland are "alarming" according to Morten Winthereik, a Danish doctor at Queen Ingrid's. He is now convinced the potential for a full-scale HIV epidemic is dramatic and is calling for urgent research into the strain of the virus seen in Greenland.
More than eighty cases have been confirmed in the Inuit population, which numbers only 50,000. Many more are thought to have gone unrecorded as victims flee their small, enclosed community for the anonymity of Denmark.
The pattern of infection is worryingly different from that in Europe, where rates are stagnating or starting to fall. Dr Winthereik says: "If you look at the size of the population and then the rate of increase here, these figures are alarming".
Dr Winthereik began studying the trends in 1994 when doctors in Sisimiut, 200 miles north of Nuuk, reported an explosion in new cases. In 1993, there were only two known cases of HIV in Greenland. The following year there were seven and in 1995, 14. Every year since has seen an increase in cases, concentrated mainly in Sisimiut and the capital.
Comparisons show that the spread, at 25 per 100 000, is three times faster than in Europe. The development of the virus into full-blown Aids is also faster in Greenland, sometimes as short as six months.
HIV's introduction into the Inuit population of Greenland dates from the late Eighties when man presumed to have been bisexual who had contracted the virus in Copenhagen - several thousand native Greenlanders live in Denmark - returned to Nuuk.
What marks out the infection in Greenland is that transmission is almost exclusively heterosexual. Women account for 45 per cent of the total known cases. This pattern and pace of spread makes the Greenland comparable to Africa as far as Aids is concerned, doctors say.
Unlike the typical HIV profile elsewhere in Europe, members of the known HIV community here exist on the lowest possible rung of the social ladder, heavily reliant on alcohol and handouts from the Danish-financed welfare system. Many speak little or no Danish, which keeps them isolated socially and educationally.
Medical care is free and the drug therapy available at Queen Ingrid's is now on a par with that in Denmark, but doctors have experienced huge difficulties in tracking down potential HIV-positives because of the particular social group involved and their "relaxed" sexual habits.
"We are talking about a group where to have multiple sexual partners is common," Morten Winthereik says, adding: "Partner notification and testing should be the biggest weapon in stalling the spread but it is not easy here."
While the known cases are, by and large, confined to the street drinkers, an identifiable group of unemployed homeless alcoholics aged between 40 and 50, the fear is that huge swathes of younger Greenlanders for whom casual sex is a way of life, could be wiped out as the disease spreads.
Sexual behaviour in the capital is described by Dr Winthereik as "high risk". Saturday nights in Nuuk are almost a tourist attraction, such is the intensity of the nightlife and the scale of alcohol consumption.
"Everyone drinks, you can't go anywhere, so you party," says Inga Kasser, a young reporter at KNR, the local broadcaster.
But it is not far from Nuuk's watering holes to the graveyard. The community buried its latest victim of Aids last week. Jakob, a 35 year old man was infected in Copenhagen and came home to die. He was what those studying the disease in Greenland call an "import". He did not match the typical profile. For a start he was younger than most of those infected here.
By contrast, Piitar, who learned he was HIV-positive a few months ago, is 46, and some sufferers are even older. The oldest known case is a 59- year-old man.
Like most of Greenland's HIV positives, Piitar is unmarried but heterosexual. There is no gay community in Greenland and most homosexuals go to live in Denmark anyway. He hangs around Nuuk with a group of drinking pals in which the virus is endemic. Piitar was only remotely acquainted with HIV when he showed up at the "Sana" (sanitorium) complaining of persistent symptoms of what he thought was flu. He was coughing, had lost weight and was showing eczema-like skin eruptions.
Testing for HIV is almost routine now in Nuuk and the suspicions were quickly confirmed. But Piitar's initial sense of shock and shame have passed. He hardly seems to care. "I have many problems," he says. Alcohol is expensive but he drinks heavily, stocking up at the supermarket when he has money. He is weary of blood tests so does not always bother to show up for check-ups. Is he practising safe sex now? "Sometimes," he says.
Piitar's reactions are typical. He has probably not altered his behaviour. And he will not become dependent on the medical system until he is in the chronic final stages of Aids. He laughs at the idea of support groups or counselling or even telling members of his family in south Greenland: Inuit men do not talk about their feelings.
This silence about HIV in Greenland is part of the problem says Morten Winthereik. "HIV is a very ugly affliction but we have got to start thinking about it like any other infectious disease." He wants to see research into why it develops more rapidly here (in one case it took just six months from diagnosis to full-blown Aids) to establish whether it is the same virus which is being cloned and whether there is any pre-disposition which makes Inuits more susceptible. "If we could identify it then we would know if new cases were the same."
Annual alcohol intake, although significantly down on the levels it rose to during the Eighties, is still high and Greenlanders themselves admit their tendency towards hedonistic and self-destructive behaviour.
"This is a cultural trait. We are guided by instant gratification," admits Mikaela Engell, a senior health official at the home rule government.
Sexually-transmitted diseases such as chlamydia and gonorrhoea are common even among the young, and the abortion rate of one in every two pregnancies confirms the suspicion of Gunnar Palisgaarde, Greenland's chief medical officer, that "nobody uses condoms".
Doctors here agree the spread of HIV is exclusively heterosexual in contrast to other Eskimo communities, for example in Canada where intravenous drug use is the main HIV transmission route.
"I have both men and women dying of Aids in my department. This is heterosexual transmission," Dr Palisgaarde says.
Modernity in Nuuk, the capital of a country which has no connecting roads because settlements are dotted around a glacier covering 85 per cent of the landmass, has brought bingo halls, video stores, a cinema - showing Titanic this week - mobile phones and higher living standards. But persistently high rates of murder, domestic violence, sex abuse, alcoholism and suicide reflect the extent to which the Eskimo people are still coming to terms with the profound societal transformation they were forced to adopt in just one generation.
A controversial Danish experiment in the early 1960s closed many outlying villages and primitive settlements and forced thousands of people into Nuuk. Many ended up in "Blok P" a soulless high-rise housing development. Unable to cope with the psychological switch from a hunting, fishing, bartering existence to the cramped conditions of flat-dwelling and wage- earning shift work in the fish factories or social welfare, they turned to alcohol and other forms of escape.
Aqqaluk Lynge, a leading figure in the movement for Eskimo rights, sums up the loss of identity suffered by indigenous men in particular as "a human disaster". Long dark winters and short bursts of summer when the sun hardly goes down, were easier for indigenous people to cope with when they were hunting and fishing in harmony with the seasons.
This loss of a traditional role for a deeply proud self-sufficient people is blamed for a suicide rate which has increased steadily to the point where a week does not pass without a hanging or a shooting. "The transformation of the society is too fast for some and not fast enough to meet the expectations of others," according to a polar epidemiologist, Peter Bjerregaard, who has carried out exhaustive research into the high mortality rates in Greenland.
Although it sometimes goes hand-in-hand with heavy drinking, suicide is rarely associated with clinical depression. "Young men hang or shoot themselves when they believe they no longer have a useful role. It is not a cry for help. In the old days people would go up into the mountains to die if they believed they had no role in the community," says Mikaela Engell.
Lung cancer and other health problems, meanwhile, are exacerbated by high tobacco consumption. Eighty per cent of the population smoke. Heart disease has increased with the encroachment of processed foods into the traditional whale and seal meat diet.
The Greenland administration, which won home rule from Denmark in 1979, has been tackling the problems with an impressively frank and open attitude.
Jonathan Motzfeldt, the Premier, himself went public some years ago to announce he was checking into a drying-out clinic and this is thought to have been a big factor in helping others to mend their ways. People were deeply suspicious of Alcoholics Anonymous at first but it is slowly gaining a foothold and police chief Jorgen Meyer says there has been a steady fall in the violent crime rate as educational levels improve. "We have empty spaces in the prison," he says.
But dealing with HIV will require a cultural transformation which has not even begun. Health minister Marianne Jensen has ordered the setting-up of a telephone help line next month to offer counselling. Condoms are to be given out free and safe sex leaflets distributed. Nuuk's overstretched doctors are hoping it is not too late.
