"I need something, a map," A quick breath, "Some sort of map, something." The man repeated himself many times, pacing as he did so. He roamed around a very small cabin, a single window harboring a view of the Imbarle Bay. The cabin itself was made of simple spruce, treating more than likely at the saw mill that could always be heard no matter where you traveled around here. The constant grind of saw work gradually just wore into the white noise, and you grew to never notice it. Outside of the cabin the harbor itself spread into the deep bay, four or five long docks reached out, many small ships tied up to posts. The bay itself nearly closed off before it enters the sea. Only a small strip of land among the horizon remains. Families and couples are always seen walking along the thin stretch of land that just barely didn't connect. The small water passage was only big enough for two rows of medium sized ships to pass through. A constant flow of ships in and out, lines in the water like the line in the sand that didn't quite make Imbarle a lake. Around you the sounds of chains slapping and yelling, screaming of languages not understood. Alien humans from far sides of the world, seeing every shipping port and every lighthouse known. The entire town smelled of salt and fish, lingering on the warm spring air.
The inside of the shack was not as industrial. A rectangular straw mattress lay on a wooden board built directly from the side of the wall. Under it a few pairs of shirts and pants were underneath the shelf/bed, none of which were colorful. There was one small woolen floormat directly in the middle of the floor. It was stained with years of boots and spills and wood. In one corner was a modest potbelly wood stove. A short stack of meager wood lay beside in a woven basket. Woodchips scattered from one side of the room to the other. The man himself was angry as he paced. Dark circles were stained under his sagging eyes. He obviously had not shaven in a week or two. A simple brown shirt was all he wore to cover his skinny frame. His pants were died brown wool, along with his simple overcoat. Finally, he stopped his repetitive walk, threw a small piece of wood in the fire, stood up tall, and sighed deeply.
"I need to find someone." He mumbled. The door flung open and Loncovitz breathed in the salt and sun and the warmness that flies with the wind when it comes off the sea. He paused just a moment, staring idly at the tall spruces and evergreens that littered the tall hills on all sides of the town. His gaze fell downward to the bundles of flowers that littered his rock pathway and all across his yard. Lately, nobody cheered, though. No new flowers.
Having never taken but a step out of his door, which still was open, Loncovitz bent over and grabbed a single wilting yellow rose with his bony fingers. He carried it just a few steps and he started to walk forward. He then let it slip out of his grip and tumble from his side, his mind elsewhere. The flower focused on compost and regrowth as something new. He now knew where he was heading, but quickly turned around and ran back against his progress to shut the door he forgot. Back turned south, his mind turned like the saw buzz that rumbled in the back of his mind, forgot.
"The damned heretics should know, they have all treaded far away from this place. Lordl is just a constant hub of wanders, a small rest for anyone and everyone that wants to go any direction. Or no direction at all. The place is filled with bile, people preaching on every corner, each an opposite idea. Each equally insane. They need to know real prophecy, they'd be too busy to be insane. It's only a couple moons this direction. I just can't think of some place where this threat is coming from. The guidance of my dreams have yet to fail me, why now would it leave me answerless when it showed me the most clearly of things to come? A vision of death to our people, I need to track down Wen. First, I need some food for the trip. Then I deal with that aimless wanderer, and find out if he's seen any creatures like that."
The rocks surrounding the path were entirely shale, breaking off in sheets with every misplaced step. One could see where small rockslides have happened, and people have spend many days digging out a rough path through the new rock. Some of the slides were so bad, the road had to pass up the hill, sometimes taking a half mile to transverse the side route. The rocks themselves were entirely gray on the side the light shot down upon, due to the constant wind that howled through these canyons. The underneath of the rocks remained a blood red, though. Vibrant. A violent red some nearby aboriginal tribes use as body and face paints for their ceremonies. They are called the Huulls, peaceful tribes whose Witch Doctors often match the medical power of our best doctors.
These thoughts passed through Locovitz mind as he moved south. A small stick hanging off of his shoulders, a bag of supplies dangling behind him. "Those rituals in my dream were nothing like that, so angry, so vicious. As if they wanted to raise that marsh over the entire land, all but that hill they danced upon. And that marsh, so vast, spreading to what seemed like the horizon line of my sight. The closest marsh I even know of is in Brindle, but even that is at least sixteen moons south of Lordl. Even so, that marsh remains only a percentage of the one I witnessed. Wen will know, Wen knows maps, he has maps, he will know."

Treat Tongue By Eating Pizza in "State Pizza"Treat Tongue By Eating Pizza in State Pizza,Italia. During the four-day outing family travelers in Italy, we have evolved into almost vegetarian. Our food over there is bread, pizza, instant noodles and two meals kebab.
The price of food is more expensive there than in Germany. Probably because most of Italy is a popular tourist destination. Food prices cheapest we found is 6 euros per share. Despite include drinking, it still feels expensive for tourists is minimal funds. Imbiss kebab hard to find, especially Asian restaurant. When you find it, it turns out restauarannya were closed or we're not hungry. Treat Tongue By Eating Pizza in State Pizza, do you ever go to Italy to enjoy a slice of pizza?
In Venice we find a halal kebab shop owned by the Turks. One of the sellers understand some English. His mother had pizza tonno, Mr. choosing kebab. Pizza, hmm huenak. Tomato flavor is dominant. Pizza thin Italian pizza is thicker than the preferred Emak a la America. Kebabnya, Dad said, no less delicious. Although poor vegetable, but a sense of soft cheese on the tongue. We pack a piece for the sleeping Embak. Whether it was real nice. Or is it due to a combination hungry and cold. I do not know.
When going back to Germany, we were starving at the Venice airport. In fact, only in the afternoon we will arrive in the city of Hannover. In the complex airport duty free shop just wrote prayers and sellers pizza + baguette. Baguette was beyond appetizing, so we choose to store pizza. Once again, Mother bought pizza tonno with a mixture of black olives. A slice of pizza costs 3.40 euros. Not too expensive considering its size too big. Although the piece consists of a quarter circle pizza giant size, but the size is almost equivalent to the size of a normal pizza round in Germany.
It was apparently a surprise, "huenakk sekali"!! His mother is usually not fond of olives, ate it with relish. Type is steinofenpizza, aka pizza baked in a stone oven. So there is a distinctive smell and taste burnt. Wah, this is the most delicious pizza ever eaten Emak lifetime. Although it is full, we decided to buy one more container to be wrapped as stock. I'll settle for eating and not imagine the shadows again. Duh, if you remember the pizza was so want to Italy again,

Sedgwick will make his Clio Cup debut with Morgan's fellow BTCC racer (and 2014 Clio Cup runner-up) Josh Cook's Team Cooksport outfit at Silverstone in just over two weeks' time
Renaultsport's UK Motorsport Championship Manager Will Fewkes (pictured left) said: "We very much welcome Alex to the Clio Cup grid. It is fantastic to see his presence add to the ever-increasing strong ties the championship already has with the BTCC and which simply add to the levels of professionalism and credibility surrounding the Renault UK Clio Cup.
"The fact we work with the same tyre partner as the BTCC, Dunlop, is one. Not only is Alex joining a team run by one of the BTCC's hottest emerging properties in Josh Cook, he is a protégé of BTCC driver Adam Morgan just as our current championship leader Ash Hand is mentored by Andy Priaulx.
"BMR Restart, one of the top BTCC teams, has shown its faith in the Clio Cup by supporting Ashley Sutton while another BTCC racer, Stewart Lines, is behind the Maximum Motorsport squad that now runs Ant Whorton-Eales's car.
"The modern-day BTCC grid is also full of drivers who have come through the 'Renaultsport family', such as Andy and Josh, Jason Plato, Mat Jackson, Andrew Jordan, Dave Newsham, Colin Turkington, Jack Goff, Mike Bushell, Rob Austin… the list goes on."

Investment in fuel ethanol distilleries has soared since the late 2005 oil price hikes, but data collection in this fast-changing sector has fallen behind. Because of inadequate data collection on the number of new plants under construction, the quantity of grain that will be needed for fuel ethanol distilleries has been vastly understated. Farmers, feeders, food processors, ethanol investors, and grain-importing countries are basing decisions on incomplete data. The U.S. Department of Agriculture (USDA) projects that distilleries will require only 60 million tons of corn from the 2008 harvest. But here at the Earth Policy Institute (EPI), we estimate that distilleries will need 139 million tons -- more than twice as much. If the EPI estimate is at all close to the mark, the emerging competition between cars and people for grain will likely drive world grain prices to levels never seen before. The key questions are: How high will grain prices rise? When will the crunch come? And what will be the worldwide effect of rising food prices? One reason for the low USDA projection is that it was released in February 2006, well before the effect of surging oil prices on investment in fuel ethanol distilleries was fully apparent. Beyond this, USDA relies heavily on the Renewable Fuels Association (RFA), a trade group, for data on ethanol distilleries under construction, but the RFA data have lagged behind movement in the industry. We drew on four firms that collect and publish data on U.S. ethanol distilleries under construction. RFA is the one most frequently cited. The other three firms are Europe-based F.O. Licht, the publisher of World Ethanol and Biofuels Report; BBI International, which publishes Ethanol Producer Magazine; and the American Coalition for Ethanol (ACE), publisher of Ethanol Today. Unfortunately, the lists of plants under construction maintained by RFA, BBI, and ACE are not complete. Each contains some plants that are not on the other lists. Drawing on these three lists and on biweekly reports from F.O. Licht, EPI has compiled a more complete master list. For example, while we show 79 plants under construction, RFA lists 62 plants. (We welcome any information that will improve this list, which can be viewed at www.earthpolicy.org/Updates/2007/Update63_data.htm.) According to the EPI compilation, the 116 plants in production on December 31, 2006, were using 53 million tons of grain per year, while the 79 plants under construction -- mostly larger facilities -- will use 51 million tons of grain when they come online. Expansions of 11 existing plants will use another 8 million tons of grain (1 ton of corn = 39.4 bushels = 110 gallons of ethanol).

Goetze scores on return as Bayern sink Dortmund
(Reuters) - Mario Goetze scored on his return to Borussia Dortmund, the club where he grew up, to set bitter rivals Bayern Munich on the way to a 3-0 Bundesliga win in the clash of Germany's top two sides on Saturday.
Goetze stabbed the ball home in the 66th minute, only 10 minutes after coming on as a substitute to a resounding chorus of jeers, as the Bavarians enjoyed their first league win over Dortmund since February 2010.
The 21-year-old, whose transfer stunned Borussia fans when it was confirmed last April for 37 million euros ($50.04 million), did not celebrate his goal.
Arjen Robben sealed the win with a typical breakaway effort with five minutes left and Thomas Mueller sidefooted a third to complete a demoralising evening for Dortmund as their makeshift defence collapsed.
Dortmund were left to rue an early miss by Robert Lewandowski, who fired wide from six metres after only two minutes, and a brilliant save by Bayern goalkeeper Manuel Neuer to deny Marco Reus with the score 1-0.
The win took leaders and champions Bayern, who have 35 points, seven clear of third-placed Dortmund.
Bayer Leverkusen are sandwiched inbetween on 31 points after winning 1-0 at Hertha Berlin with Stefan Kiessling's 13th goal of the season in all competitions.
Bayern, who had not won any of their last six meetings with Dortmund, had plenty of early possession but spent most of the team passing the ball sideways, unable to play their way out of defence.
After Lewandowski's miss, Jakub Blaszczykowski wasted a chance for Dortmund when he dallied over his shot and Reus had a powerful drive parried by Neuer as the hosts looked menacing. Continued...

When Roy Hodgson was Fulham manager more than five years ago, watching his team struggle to an FA Cup third round replay against Bristol Rovers he recalled yesterday how a striker on the opposing side caught his eye.
Hodgson said that at the time he asked Lennie Lawrence, then working for Rovers, about a 25-year old Rickie Lambert who was also part of the Bristol side that eliminated Fulham in the replay. At the time, the now England manager said he had even considered signing the player.
"I said to Lennie: 'Lambert looks interesting'. Lennie said: 'He's been all through the leagues, he is a good player but already 25.' Like I am certain many other managers, we looked at it and thought: 'League One? Is he going to be able to step up?' And we didn't take the chance but other clubs did. Every club who has taken a chance on him has been rewarded."
Yesterday, the two were finally united in circumstances that would have been unlikely five years ago. At 31, Lambert, whose wife gave birth to their daughter, Bella, yesterday, was selected for his first England squad. He is by no means the oldest new selection in recent years – Kevin Davies was 33 when won his first cap in October 2010 – but having played just one season in the Premier League his has been an unusual journey.
Rejected by Liverpool, having played in the same age-group as Steven Gerrard, he played for Blackpool, Macclesfield Town, Stockport County, Rochdale and Bristol Rovers before he joined Southampton in 2009. He scored 15 league goals last season following his club's back-to-back promotions from League One to the Premier League and now has a chance of a first England cap against Scotland on Wednesday.
Asked whether Lambert's inclusion was a reflection of the lack of options he has in attack, Hodgson conceded that it was factor: "We've discussed the paucity of competition at forward level, especially as seeing as many times during that 15 months we've had injuries, I haven't had an awful lot of choice.
"It would be harsh if you then turn that against him [Lambert]. I would still like to say he's a very good technician, good in the air, his understanding of the game is good and he's scored goals. You could argue what more criteria do you want when you are selecting a forward?
"You always run the risk as a footballer that if you are playing in a lower league and doing well, people will always ask the question, 'Ah, but it's a lower league, how is he going to be in the next league?' Rickie is not a player who is exceptionally fast. Exceptionally fast players people take a chance on them a bit more than those with other abilities. Southampton did with Rickie."

News Elitism and a skewed view of Britains diversity
Simon Jenkinss patronising dismissal of the recent findings in the report by the social mobility and child poverty commission reflects exactly what the report says: that an elite is running the country and is out of touch with ordinary citizens (Merit is not the be-all and end-all of good leadership, 29 August). In writing that most countries are run largely by the products of middle-class education, Jenkins ignores Britains bloated private education system that is not replicated in any other European country. He also uses the term middle class in a meaningless way if he equates it with our present wealthy and privileged ruling elite. The middle class by definition is in the middle!Finally he writes that all evils starting with the education system is the oldest of cliches. It is, though, a basic truth that if you allow a wealthy minority to effectively jump the educational queue by paying for the education of their children, you are helping to cement elite structures that dominate all sections of society. Only the abolition of private schooling and decent state education can bring about genuine equality of opportunity as the most progressive European nations demonstrate.John GreenLondon Continue reading...Read the full story in Guardian Education

Lincolnshire Police today said they had located four-year-old Billy Blu and Vixen Rae Francis, who were abducted by their mother, Tamara Dyson, during a supervised visit at a social services centre in Skegness on Thursday.
Police said a man and a woman had been arrested and were being held in custody pending questioning. No details were given of where or when the twins were recovered.
Social workers were supposed to be monitoring a visit from the children's grandmother Judith Dyson, 61, when the toddlers were taken.
Yesterday their father, 31-year-old electrician William Francis, from Greenwich, said he was "livid" about social services' handling of the case. He also made a series of appeals for public help in finding the children .
There were apparently two social workers present but Ms Dyson, managed to sneak in and seize them after the staff became distracted while making a cup of coffee.
She snatched the twins from the same contact centre last Monday during a supervised visit but was tracked down and an interim care order put in place.
Olympia Dyson, Ms Dyson's 16-year-old daughter from a previous relationship, claimed her mother was abused by the twins' father, who pleaded guilty to actual bodily harm in October 2008, saying he regularly punched and kicked her mother during the eight-year relationship.
It also emerged Ms Dyson was scheduled to have a meeting today to see whether she could look after the twins on a permanent basis. But Olympia, who was arrested herself after her mother's disappearance, said: "The social workers were saying there was a slim chance of getting the twins back and she felt desperate because there was nothing she had done to make that happen.
"She's just desperate for us all to be a family again."

MADRID, Oct 6 (Reuters) Africans playing in the Primera Liga will no longer occupy berths allocated for non-European Union players after a change in regulations approved by the Spanish Football Federation (RFEF).
The RFEF gave the green light to the change after consulting with FIFA and UEFA following inquiries by Real Madrid and Getafe as to whether their African players could be treated as European Union workers in accordance with an agreement signed in 2000.
The Cotonu accord, which was signed in Benin by the EU and the 77 members of the Association of African, Caribbean and Pacific states in 2000 and ratified by the Spanish parliament in April last year, agreed to treat workers from those nations as EU citizens.
At present Primera Liga clubs are limited to three non-European Union players registered in their squads, but the new move will free up a number of places occupied by Africans.
The move would also apply to future signings from the Caribbean and the Pacific.
''From now on players from these countries that play in Spain will be considered as coming from the European Union as will those that sign in the future,'' RFEF spokesman Jorge Carretero was quoted as saying in sports daily Marca today.
Players affected by the move include Real Madrid's Mali midfielder Mahamadou Diarra, Barcelona's Cameroon striker Samuel Eto'o and Getafe's Nigerian forward Ikechukwu Uche.

The Den, in West Central Street near High Holborn, was stripped of its licence after a personal plea from Camden Borough Commander Chief Superintendent John Sutherland.
He made a special request to Camden council after supplying its licensing team with a 50-page dossier of complaints received since 2009.They included 36 assaults, 325 thefts, a violent robbery, a serious sexual assault and the shooting of a bouncer.
It was identified by police as being among the worst 20 bars and clubs in London for theft. Camden councillor Sue Vincent said: "This decision sends a clear message that the council will take action against any premises breaching the terms of its licence."

City of Ghosts
Ice fingers licked the buildings and the harsh exterior melted away with the incorporeal touch. All around the city, the same torment was wrecking the once-old architecture, aging it new, turning sense and time upon their own smart heads.
Nothing could stop the way death took her prey, but her army of whispers shot through the eyeless sky determined. They had borne the name ruin for years before its birth; they had taken from the living centuries before the living had taped up the finish and put it in a casket.
Now they must exact their revenge: to destroy happiness.

A zip-zap machine is a portable credit card processing machine that is operated manually. This type of machine is often used for outdoor events where computerized services are not available for each vendor individually.
The zip-zap credit card processing machine operates through the merchant loading the credit card into the machine with a carbon paper receipt. As the cross-bar on the machine is moved along the length of the machine, the raised credit card numbers are printed onto the receipt.
The zip-zap machine is also nicknamed the knuckle-buster credit card machine.

These posts came about when people asked how we organize all the stuff that we have on our to-do list and we explained that we basically have one long run-on document that we update as we go. Back in May when we first shared this list, we didn't get to cross anything off. But now that it has been a few months, some requests for an updated version rolled in and I was all "No, please dont make me cross things off!" Just kidding. I was all "Lemme at it! Ohmanohman I love crossing things off!" Picture the dog's reaction in those Beggin' strips commercials. And guess how many lines I got to make? 43. Which

House Crashing: A Cozy & Creative Townhouse
We know you guys love seeing a wide range of homes when it comes to House Crashing, so when Katrina invited us over to run around her townhouse and snap some photos to share with you guys, we jumped at the chance. She's a super creative momma who lives right here in Richmond with a lot of awesome found/collected items mixed with things that she has DIYed herself. And here she is now, with her adorable son Luke and her husband Nate. When you enter the townhouse, there's a gorgeous cozy wall color (Gauntlet Gray by Sherwin Williams) that envelops you, along with the rich wood floors that her hubby installed himself on all three
How To Install A Nest Learning Thermostat
Everywhere we turn these days there are things that need updating. Some just for aesthetic reasons. Some for functional. Some for both. Enter our old timey, first floor thermostat in our office. We figured with our new furnace system it'd be a good time to update this to something more energy efficient. We made the swap to a programmable thermostat in our first house, so this time around the tech geek in me begged Sherry to let us take this upgrade a step further – especially since so many of you have commented about loving your Nest. To my surprise, she agreed. And that's how I found myself holding one of these babies. But let
Fab Freebie: Founding Father
My alma mater was founded by Thomas Jefferson who most notably was our 3rd President and wrote the Declaration of Independence. But he also authored a list of motivational maxims which Lauren Fritsch has turned into a chic, hand silkscreened poster. This week's winner will get their choice of any of the five color combos (we especially love the metallic gold and black one) and… … the winner will also score $150 to Citizen Native – a pretty web-shop stocked with cool American-made items. In addition to breezy and fun home stuff (I've never wanted a goat pillow more in my life), they've got awesome wares for pets and kids, as well as for us
Foyer Freshness: A Soft Neutral Paint Color
The deed is done. Behold, our freshly painted foyer: It feels about a foot taller and at least two feet wider than it did before. Ah, the power of paint. This shot's probably the most accurate when it comes to color. It's definitely one of those soft neutrals that shifts throughout the day, but I'd say it's one part sand and one part greige. Not too cool and not too warm. And pretty darn beautiful with white trim. As for choosing the color, we mentioned a bunch of swatches we were loving in this post, and shared this little makeshift palette: Can you guess who ended up in the foyer? Good ol' Edgecomb Gray. The
How To Remove A Dated Vanity Backsplash
Happy Friday, y'all! We're painting the foyer today (pics on Monday – woop woop!) but I realized that I forgot to share two bathroom related happenings. And one's a giant oops moment, so this should be fun. First of all, it's fitting that this thing is called a vanity because I did a little surgery and removed its love handle. It's hard to see in some of the more recent photos of the bathroom, but this one shows it loud and proud: That slab of counter against the right wall just felt imbalanced to us, and it's actually a pretty simple DIY project to remove it. So if you have a side-splash thing that you're
How To Run A New Cable Wire
One thing we were excited about doing differently in this house vs. the last one is having a TV in our master bedroom. And while we did briefly have a TV in our last master, we never hooked it up to a DVD player or bothered to get a second cable box. Heck, I'm not sure it even got plugged in. We've never been gung ho about having a bedroom TV (and we realize it can be a hot topic) but as two people who struggle to snap out of blog mode at night, we thought it would help fight the temptation to work on our laptops (which happens all the time downstairs on the
Sharing Some Love & Some Art
This week would have been my Aunt Kay's birthday so it was kind of hard for me since she passed away last year (she lived with me growing up and was sort of like my second mom). She was such a happy and colorful person, and she loved to paint and draw, in fact it was her minor in college. So I decided to do a little watercolor painting with Clara in her honor. I know every mother probably thinks this, but my kid is an artist. Somebody get this girl a beret. The watercolor set came from Target (it was a total impulse buy when I saw it on an end cap – I just
Upcycling A Secondhand Bathroom Light
But before we get to that: an armadillo in the bathroom. Let's talk about it. Everyone needs one, right? I mean, we can argue that a lot of decorating "rules" are personal preference and yada yada, but seriously, can we all agree that a bathroom is not complete without a golden armadillo? That's a print we bought from this craft fair from an awesome local artist named Rachel that I finally got around to framing and hanging up. I especially love it in the burlap-y/grasscloth-ish frame (an old Pottery Barn Outlet find) hanging above the framed instagram photo of Clara holding a naked doll (felt kinda bathroom-esque). The linen-like fabric behind the instagram photo looks
Our Other New House
Yup, Sherry and I have started work on another new house. But before you gasp – we're not moving into this one… and it isn't technically ours. Heck, it's not even built yet. In fact, the lot currently looks like this: Some of you may remember this Mega House Crashing that we did last year where we toured 8 custom show homes – each constructed by a different builder and decorated by a different interior designer – as part of an event called Richmond Homearama. Well, their 2014 event is now in the works and they've asked us to design one of the homes! Cue the girlish shrieking (not from me, I promise my shrieking is
Fab Freebie: I Sense A Refresh
As we mentioned on Friday, we have an almost unbelievably shallow kitchen sink. So when Kohler offered us a new sink and faucet, it pained us a little to say no… but you know we love to pay things forward to you guys! Which is why we're thrilled to announce that someone's about to win any KOHLER sink of their choosing (yes, any!) AND a new KOHLER Sensate Touchless faucet (so you'll be able to turn your water on and off by just passing your hand – or bowl or spatula – under the faucet's sensor). They're even offering a free consultation with a KOHLER interior design to help you pick the perfect sink &
Painting Our Bathroom Vanity (Twice To Get It Right)
Let's talk about vanity, shall we? Specifically the sink vanity that we last left off as primed in this post. This is one of those real-life stories where we painstakingly stared at about fifty swatches before carefully choosing a pretty kelly green tone that we thought would be awesome. A fun pop of color in a white room (sort of like this). So off to the store we went and grabbed a quart of Baby Fern by Benjamin Moore in their semi-gloss Natura paint. And after one coat – even though we gave it two in the hope that the second one would work a miracle – we knew… Baaaaaaad call. Seriously, at one point Clara
Breaking Down The New Pad
It's Friday! Let's get mathy up in here. By now you know I'm a card carrying facts & figures nerd (here's Exhibit A and Exhibit B) so when Sherry and I started to notice some unique stats about our new house my throat basically erupted with "LEMMEDOSOMEINFOGRAPHICSPLEEEEEASE." Whether she actually was keen on the idea or was just worried that disagreeing would turn me into some beastly werewolf-statistician, this post was born. We always end up loving random time capsule posts like this the most in hindsight (it's fun to look back at things we probably would have forgotten otherwise, like this, this, this, this, and this). So in the name of some headed-into-the-weekend fun
Pondering Layout Changes & Paint Color Possibilities
Since a bunch of you guys have requested more details on what layout changes we're pondering and what paint colors we're currently leaning towards, we thought we'd share a giant brain dump about what's flying around in our heads at the moments (which will change as we go I'm sure!). Y'all ready for this? Lots o' words. Lots o' diagrams. Lots o' links. Please fasten your blog-reading seatbelts and be sure that your desk chair is in its upright and locked position. This is what the first floor looked like when we bought our house (we've since removed the three sets of the double doors off of the kitchen). But here's what we're thinking we'd
How To Program Your Garage Doors (& Their Dip Switch)
We have two garage doors. I know, I know – cool story, bro. But I promise this gets better. Well, it does if you're a tech nerd or just enjoy life's little conveniences. Sherry's eyes glaze over when I try to tell her this stuff, so I'm talking to the remote-control-loving convenience enthusiasts out there. Anyone? Each door came with its own remote, which we inherited from the previous owners. This guy barely worked at first, but with a quick battery replacement it works almost too well – occasionally opening or closing the door when the remote shifts in my cup holder. Did I mention it didn't come with a visor clip? Yeah, that's why
Painting The Back Of Your Front Door A Bold Color
Alternate post title: Paint Me Like One Of Your French Girls. Yes, much like Rose once begged Jack, the dusty blue back of our front door was just begging to be painted (ok, so Rose said "draw me like one of your French girls" but it's close enough). The new paint color of choice? The same happy teal tone that's on the front of it. There's no hard and fast rule about carrying the color that's on the front of the door back around to the inside of it (in our last two houses we chose bright colors on the front and plain old white for the back) – but for the first time ever
House Crashing: Calming & Clever
Psst- Sorry about yesterday's truncated post, Reader users. There was some bad code in a video we embedded (we like to feed full posts, so if you ever see a shortened one, something wonky's going on). We're painting something again today! Who's surprised? Anybody? Nobody? We'll be back with the goods tomorrow, but in the meantime we thought this house tour was so charming and creative that we had to share it. It's a great example of a someone buying a house and just going for it, without being even a little afraid to make it theirs. And if there's one thing that we've learned in this whole home-making journey of ours, it's that the
Fab Freebie: Comfort, Clara-Style
One of our favorite things in Clara's room is her cozy ikat throw. That or her monogrammed "C" pillow. So if the maker of said throw and pillow emails you to do a giveaway, you say "YES!" And that's how someone's going to end up scoring both a throw and pillow cover of their choice from Happy Habitat by Karrie Kaneda this week (a $200+ value). Another cool thing about Karrie's throws and pillows is that they're eco-friendly. They use recycled cotton, which basically means scrap pieces and threads are getting a second life. A life with you, perhaps? Please use the Rafflecopter widget below to enter (it might take a second to load, but
Priming And Painting Trim With A Paint Sprayer And By Hand
"I'm Blue Da Ba Dee Dabba Da-eeeeee" (anyone remember that song?). Picture us maniacally singing it while priming and painting trim for hours days. We're slowly losing our minds, but we're having fun doing it. Please feel free to click over and jam out so we feel less alone (and slightly less certifiable). Ok, so when we last left our hero, er, our foyer, he was sporting some snazzy blue trim. We had stripped down all the wallpaper, and had also removed two closet doors and the bathroom door so we could take them out to the garage and use our paint sprayer to apply a coat of primer and two coats of white semi
Celebrating Our 6th Wedding Anniversary
Last weekend marked our sixth wedding anniversary. As you've come to know from us, we like to celebrate with some family time, a good meal, and a few pictures to remember it all by. Actually, one of our few goals for commemorating each year is to get a family portrait (which we hung as a collection in our last house). It started off very casually on our little point and shoot. Then it started involving tripods and camera remotes (you can thank Clara for that). But this year we went super simple and just broke out the iPhone on a family walk. I snapped this guy with my own hand. We also tried to get
Email Answer: I Bought A Fixer-Upper, Where Do I Begin?
Q: My husband Tim and I just bought our first fixer upper two weeks ago in Fort Worth, Texas. It is our second home and we hope to make it our last. Falling in love with our home was the easy part, but the thing is we just don't know where to start. Should I mention that we have a 19 month old little ball of energy "helping" us? I know you don't know what our house looks like nor do you know what our plans are for it. I won't bore you with the details, I just want to know if you have a post about getting started; about how to go about making
Using A Steamer To Remove Wallpaper
Things are getting steamy in the foyer! As a refresher, we have five rooms full of wallpaper and we're attempting to take five different removal methods for a spin, just to see what ends up working (and what bites the big one). For our first time at the wallpaper removing rodeo we used hot water and a spray bottle, which actually worked out pretty well. And in this week's hard-hitting Wallpaper Exposé we'll be tackling the foyer with this guy. His name? Steamer. His game? Steaming clothes. He's actually John's sister's, but it was free to borrow and we thought we'd see how it worked out for wallpaper too. But first, a moment of silence
Stars, Stripes, and Some Thanks
It's time for our once-a-month pause to show how grateful we are to the sponsors who help make all of our other posts possible. So feel free to check out some patriotic things that caught our eye this month, and peruse our usual round-up of discounts at the bottom of the post. Summer-tastic, vacation-envy-inducing art canvasses on sale at Joss & Main. A knitted pendant light spotted on Fab.com, among other cool & quirky items. The Tile Shop's inspiration page, which showcases lots of unexpected tile combos. Patriotic WallQuotes for Americans (and Canadians!) like this one. Shades of Light's vintage sign-y letter lights, available in an alphabet of options. Small scale stencils from Royal Design
Our Fun & Filled Fourth
Our Fourth of July weekend was pretty jam-packed and we were grateful to be able to carve out some time to enjoy the holiday. The fun kicked off Thursday (July 4th) afternoon with a family walk around a new park we'd never been to. It was hot, but too beautiful not to be outside. Actually, one of our favorite parts (partly because it was completely shaded) was a tunnel that went under the road. Clara could've spent all day in there. It's where we got this cool shot we posted on Instagram that day. Oh, but did we mention it was hot? After we got home, cooled down, and napped (well, Clara napped) we walked

Test session flies past 10,000km
March 10, 2005 -- The second full GP2 series test saw our 12 teams complete more than 2500 laps of the Circuit Paul Ricard High Tech Test Track. Over the course of the three days, they instigated the first of their dedicated pre-season test programs, concentrating on everything from heavy race runs to light qualifying sprints. The overall fastest lap time consistently fell as the sessions progressed. On the first day, our teams ran a total of 907 laps, and improved on this sum with a remarkable figure of 975 laps on day two. Day three saw the circuit layout change to a longer solution at the lunch break. In the afternoon the cars ran heavy, putting their first race simulations into effect. 983 laps were run on this final day, bringing the total number of laps for the test up to 2,865 : that's 11,892 kilometres.
Delivery of the teams' second car begins in mid-March. Testing resumes on the 4th of April, at Circuit Paul Ricard, with two cars per team.
Bruno Michel, GP2 series organiser : "I'm very pleased with the result of this second test session. The evolutions that we have made to the cars have resolved the teething problems that some teams had experienced in the initial shakedown. I have once again been impressed by the professionalism of all our teams : the consistently fast laptimes and the high mileage covered show how well they've all worked with their new car."

Monitor. The Basics. Often referred to as a monitor when packaged in a separate case, the display is the most-used output device on a computer. The display provides instant feedback by showing you text and graphic images as you work or play.

Often referred to as a monitor when packaged in a separate case, the display is the most-used output device on a computer. The display provides instant feedback by showing you text and graphic images as you work or play.
Most desktop displays use a cathode ray tube (CRT), while portable computing devices such as laptops incorporate liquid crystal display (LCD), light-emitting diode (LED), gas plasma or other image projection technology. Because of their slimmer design and smaller energy consumption, monitors using LCD technologies are beginning to replace the venerable CRT on many desktops.
When purchasing a display, you have a number of decisions to make. These decisions affect how well your display will perform for you, how much it will cost and how much information you will be able to view with it. Your decisions include: Display technology - Currently, the choices are mainly between CRT and LCD technologies. Cable technology - VGA and DVI are the two types. Viewable area (usually measured diagonally) 15", 17" Aspect ratio and orientation (landscape or portrait) Maximum resolutionDot pitchRefresh rateColor depthAmount of power consumption
The introduction of NEC MultiSync technology started a trend towards multi-scanning monitors. This technology allows a monitor to understand any frequency sent to it within a certain bandwidth. The benefit of a multi-scanning monitor is that you can change resolutions and refresh rates without having to purchase and install a new graphics adapter or monitor each time. Because of the obvious advantage of this approach, nearly every monitor you buy today is a multi-scanning monitor.
UXGA can support a palette of up to 16.8 million colors and resolutions of up to 1600x1200 pixels, depending on the video memory of the graphics card in your computer. The maximum resolution normally depends on the number of colors displayed. For example, your card might require that you choose between 16.8 million colors at 800x600, or 65,536 colors at 1600x1200.
Once the display information is in analog form, it is sent to the monitor through a VGA cable
Because VGA technology requires that the signal be converted from digital to analog for transmission to the monitor, a certain amount of degradation occurs. DVI keeps data in digital form from the computer to the monitor, virtually eliminating signal loss.
The DVI specification is based on Silicon Image's Transition Minimized Differential Signaling (TMDS) and provides a high-speed digital interface. TMDS takes the signal from the graphics adapter, determines the resolution and refresh rate that the monitor is using and spreads the signal out over the available bandwidth to optimize the data transfer from computer to monitor.
Resolution refers to the number of individual dots of color, known as pixels, contained on a display. Resolution is typically expressed by identifying the number of pixels on the horizontal axis (rows) and the number on the vertical axis (columns), such as 640x480. The monitor's viewable refresh rate and dot pitch all directly affect the maximum resolution a monitor can display.
Dot Pitch
The dot pitch is the measure of how much space there is between a display's pixels. When considering dot pitch, remember that smaller is better. Packing the pixels closer together is fundamental to achieving higher resolutions. A display normally can support resolutions that match the physical dot (pixel) size as well as several lesser resolutions. For example, a display with a physical grid of 1280 rows by 1024 columns can obviously support a maximum resolution of 1280x1024 pixels. It usually also supports lower resolutions such as 1024x768, 800x600, and 640x480.
Path of Color Video Signals (RGB)
Fly back EHT Circuit
Power consumption varies greatly with different technologies. CRTs are somewhat power-hungry, at about 110 watts for a typical display, especially when compared to LCDs, which average between 30 and 40 watts.
Normally, the monitor accounts for over 80 percent of the electricity used! Because most users don't interact with the computer much of the time it is on, the U.S. government initiated the Energy Star program in 1992. Energy Star-compliant equipment monitors user activity and suspends non-critical processes, such as maintaining a visual display

Luisa is the mother of Alfredo and Manny in the Season 2 episode Humpty Dumpty. She was portrayed by actress Christine Avila.
Luisa is constantly at Alfredo's side when he is sick. The doctors believe Luisa does not understand English, but when they mention that Alfredo might die, she overhears and starts crying out and they realize she does understand some of it.
Later, the doctors overhear her arguing with her younger son Manny.
Gregory House finally needs to know where Alfredo works on weekends and confronts Luisa in perfect Spanish (claiming "I have no idea what I just said"). He has realized she and Manny were arguing about Manny taking Alfredo's place so he wouldn't lose the job. He learns just enough to direct the rest of the team to search for cock fights.

Outburst: VMware Networking Blog: vSphere 5 New Networking Features – Score D Minus – Must Improv
The VMware networking blog talks about the new networking features in vSphere 5. Well, talk would be overstating it. Mention, maybe. Post It Note, perhaps.
In fact, you could probably burp out the feature list on a single beer.
Rant: Who is Cisco's Customer ? Me or the reseller ?
I resent the fact that Cisco partners get more information than Customers on Cisco's website. Shows you who Cisco thinks the Customer really is.
What special powers do resellers have that makes them more effective ?
How does withholding information from Customers give a better outcome ?
Me ? Many resellers are not competent enough to be business and need a headstart to be useful to customers. Without some sort of "special needs" assistance, they wouldn't be in the race.
Too harsh ? IBM and HP don't rely on resellers to win business. Why does Cisco ?
Outburst: Oh really ?! Telstra throws AU$800m at clouds – The Register.
Oh, wow. Look at that — a little bit of rounding and you have $800 million. Anyone want to take a bet that 100% growth every year for five years is grossly unlikely ?
Do you think that allocating 0.01% of their gross revenue to a "cloud" project is big money ? Then consider that their broadband rollout projects is measured in the billions, every year.
Not such a big cloud project at all. Not even really committed. Pocket money at best for some executive who convinced the business it's the "next big thing". Compare this with the money spent at Amazon / Google / Facebook for a single data center.

Who killed the killer?
Short Story by: gigglemybagel
Status: Finished
Genre: Other
A room full of people looked up at the man standing before them. His hair was pulled back neatly, his suit and tie had never shook hands with a wrinkle. Among all the people enjoying the regular dinner party, one of them was a killer, he told them.
His blue eyes were almost the color of an x-ray. The looked like ice, but he didn't glare, or look with means of intimidation. He just looked, and the people knew this wasn't a joke. The calm man took a step up onto the platform, and announced "no worries, this building has top notch security, and we are making sure this person is to be caught." No one stopped to wonder how he knew there was a killer amongst them, if he didn't know his or her identity.
"For the time being, no one is allowed to leave the building. The doors will be locked, and secured. The person who finds the identity of the murderer will be awarded one million dollars." No one even knew who the host of this party was anyone. Mr. Albert Staven. Read their invitations. At a time like this, after crisis had just struck to the rather small town, a dinner party was the last thing anyone would think to happen. Apparently Mr. Staven's son had just passed away. They weren't sure which of the people in fact was Mr. Staven. No one wanted to be rude.
I myself had never been to a dinner party, and the thought of being invited made it impossible not to go. I bought a new emerald green dress that shimmered over the shoulders.
A large band played in the corner, and I made my way around the sparkling floor tiles. Rick Chapley, someone I had met only once in my life, kept his eyes in my direction, not bothering to look away when I caught him. He asked me to dance, and why not? So I gave him a song.
I waltzed my way through the next two hours. The murderer was the last thing on anyones mind. (It must have been a silly trick anyways, meant to scare people.) Then my heart was jolted to someone's scream. In the ladies room, a girl not much younger than I lay on the floor. I had to catch myself from falling over, when I recognized her face. I think I screamed the most, however, when I realized her head was not attached to the rest of her body. She attended the same church as I, and had a son nearly 2 months old.
My stomach grew a knot, and a great wall of fear hit me. I could barely walk, making my way to the kitchen. There was no way I could stay in the same room as this bloody animal. As I sat myself on the counter, a noise made my heart jump and my vision darted towards the door.
In walked Rick Chapley. "Oh, It's only you"
He smoothly ran his fingers along the marble counter-top. "Such a lovely night for a drink, don't you agree." I watched as his hands rang closer and closer, until I jumped off the counter. He poured himself a glass of a very expensive wine. "Care for a taste?" I shivered, as if the room wasn't 84 degrees.
He walked behind me and put the glass up to my lips, and I took a taste. He placed his face next to mine, as if to tell me a secret. His breath was hot and moist. "You look beautiful tonight." I caught a glimps of something silver leave his pocket. His arm came around behind me, and I could feel something cold press against my back. I instantly shot up.
I started to cry. "There there" He chortled, and fear encompassed my entire body. He began to laugh, and I squirmed. I managed myself away from him, and before he could turn around, the steak knife had entered his lower back. He fell, and he was still able to breathe "please don't" as the knife was pulled from his back, and thrust into his heart.
My emerald green dress was now decorated like a horrifying Christmas.
A face stepped from beyond the shadowed door. The man who had warned us about this butcher in the first place was smiling at me. He clapped his hands slowly 3 times, and said "Well done! Well... done. You have won the game."
"Game?" I breathe. Black dots threaten to steal my conciousness.
"We've found our murderer." I smiled. So dumbly I smiled, feeling safe again. "Grab her." He said. Not a trace of emotion could have been found in his words.
"Wait no! He was trying to kill me! I had to defend myself." I was frantic. "You have to believe me!"
"Of course we believe you." He cooed in an almost babying way. He never told them to let me go. They carried me kicking and screaming into a white van with bars on the windows.
